[laughs]



Moz, watch where you're
throwing your wife.

You two have been wiggling nonstop since
you signed up for that dance class.

Well, I'm glad Moz suggested
to take lessons again.

It's been a great
way to reconnect.

Well, if you need any
pointers, just let me know.

I was almost a
Solid Gold dancer.

Almost?

Yeah. Jeb didn't want me
to go to the audition.

He didn't want to share
all this with the world.

[humming]

Ah!

Jeb, I still got it!

- [humming]
- Uh-huh.

And I still want you
to keep it under wraps.



[laughs] Woo!

Say, y'all know Mr. Garvey
down the street?

He told me that we have a package
thief in the neighborhood.

Oh.

I think he's covering
up for his wife.

You know, Mrs. Garvey,
she got some fast hands.

I don't even pass the collection
plate to her on Sunday.

I'm going to put a doorbell
camera up there. Then that way...

Well, can I get a
goodbye kiss, Nikki?

Ooh.

Nah, I don't want
to hang up first.

No, you hang up.

No, you hang up.

- Come on...
- I'm happy to hang up.

Be careful not to get anything
stuck in your nose, Tyson,

because it's wide open.

Come on, you can't
get mad at him.

That's what love does
to you. Am I right, bro?

I hate to agree with you,

but when you're
right, you're right.

I know I get caught up with
Nikki, but we're a good match.

She's the Beyoncé to my Jay-Z.

The Michelle to my Barack.

What about my M'Dear
to my Grandpa?

Baby, you looking at 40
years of perfection here.

You heathen, go
sit down and eat.

[upbeat music plays]

Bro, we went all the way
after the Sophomore Dance.

[chuckles] There's something
about taking a girl to a dance.

They love that romantic stuff,
if you know what I mean.

Yo, Mazzi. Maybe Aaliyah will take
pity on you and you'll be in the club.

Fellas, I thought
game recognized game.

So you have done it before.

Well, let's just say, before I
had to share my room with Tyson,

when it came to the ladies,
I was working on my PhD.

"Pampering Honeys Daily."

Hey, Mazzi. Oh.

You ready for lunch?

Of course. Let's go.

So what about my guy, Ty?

What you got planned for Nikki?

First, never call me
"my guy" or "Ty" again.

Second, a real player
keeps his playbook closed.

I don't talk about what we do.

Ooh, my ears are burning.
Are you talking about me?

Only how beautiful you are.

Oh.

You want a snack?

You are all the snack I need.

Yeah, I'd like some chips.

[salsa music plays]

[lyrics in Spanish]

[man] And five,
six, seven, eight.

Now do a shoulder catch.

Outside turn, huh!
Mambo step, nice!

And end with a flourish.

- Flourish!
- Otra flourish!

Great job, everyone! Cocoa and
Moz, that is how you salsa.

Exactly, which brings me
to my next announcement.

The studio will be
hosting a competition.

And don't be nervous. It's a
great way to improve your skills.

And wear one of
those sexy dresses.

Exactly.

[both laugh]

Fun! When is it?

Oh, next week.
There's no pressure.

Can beginners enter?

It's perfect for beginners.

You get to challenge yourself in a
friendly, supportive environment.

I think we should do it.
We've been working so hard.

Yeah, why not?

It could be fun to put
our skills to the test.

Plus, the sexy dress.

Ooh, as long as I
get to pick it out.

[humming]

- [upbeat music plays]
- ♪ Hey, hey, hey ♪

♪ Hey, hey ♪

It's really fun
to duet with you.

I know. We're a killer combo.

You know,

I was thinking, maybe we could take
our relationship to the next level?

You mean, like,
sign up for AP band?

No.

I heard you telling your
friends how experienced you are

and I want you to be my first.

Really?

Yeah.

It's going to be beautiful.

Or horrible.

[salsa music plays]

♪ A-ha ♪

[lyrics in Spanish]

- Ow.
- Cocoa.

- [groans]
- [sighs]

Cocoa. Cocoa. Cocoa.

[scoffs]

What? What? What?

Really?! Have you
stopped trying?

Honey, we have been
practicing for over two hours.

It's cha-cha, not a marathon.
It should be fun, Moz.

You know what's fun, Cocoa?

Winning. That's what's fun.

When I played football,

I had two-a-days in 99-degree weather.
I'd fall asleep watching film.

I played injured.

And you want to know why?

Because I wanted to win.

You've got to have it in
here, sweetheart. Huh?

If you want to win
a Super Bowl, in…

here.

Honey, I just wanted to have a good
time with you, not Coach Hardcore.

You know what? Just
forget the whole thing.

Yo, if I say I'm doing something, I do
it. I never learned to be a quitter.

Well, let me show you how.

I quit! Find yourself
another partner.

What? [scoffs]

Fine! I will find
another partner.

Someone who wants to win!

[upbeat music plays]

I've got a guy to
pay for my nails.

Mm-hmm.

One to pay for my drip.

And I've got one to buy me food.

I'm talking about
that good stuff.

Chick-fil-A. [chuckles]

[clears throat]

Chick-fil-A, for
my Chick-fil-Bae.

[chuckles]

I got all the
sauces you like too.

Three Polynesian,
two buffalo, and, uh,

- one Tyson.
- [chuckles]

- You are so sweet, Ty-Ty.
- [chuckles]

Well, I'll see you
later, Nik-Nik.

Ladies.

And that's how you do it.

[laughs]

[upbeat music plays]

Hey, Tyson. Got a sec?

Well, I usually reserve this time for
TikTok, but I can make an exception.

So let's say you're a virgin.

[scoffs]

Let's say I'm going
back to TikTok.

Tyson, I'm serious. I need help.

Aaliyah wants to take our
relationship to the next level.

Hmm.

And that's a problem, why?

Thought you had the "PhD"?

Dude, you know I was lying.

Everybody knew you was lying.

Well, Aaliyah didn't.
And I'm not ready.

What if she drops me?

Mazzi, if she drops you, then
she's just not the girl for you.

Look, it's okay if
you're not ready.

Just don't bring it up.

Yeah. Yeah, maybe you're right.

I mean, she didn't say when or where,
so it might all go away by itself.

- Maybe.
- Thanks.

[phone chimes]

It's Aaliyah.

Her parents will be out of
town the night of the dance.

I guess we'll skip the
dance and do it then.

[groans]

Mm.

Hey, man.

We're still going to go
half on the Uber, right?

[upbeat music plays]

♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh ♪

M'Dear, guess what I heard?

Child, you know I don't gossip.

But tell me what it is so I know for
sure whether or not it is gossip.

Okay.

So I overheard at school
that Tyson's girlfriend

is using him to buy her food.

Oh, and not just any food. No.

Chick-fil-A. Yeah.

Oh. No. That's not right.

Maybe you should tell him.

I am.

I am.

Well, I finished installing
the doorbell camera.

Now, when you download the app,

you can see who's at
the door from anywhere.

What?

Did I say "app"
wrong or something?

Jade is going to tell Tyson that his
good-for-nothing girlfriend, Nikki,

has been using him for
fried chicken sandwiches.

Be careful, Jade. You can't
reason with a teenager in love.

What up, dog?

[door closes]

What, my lineup crooked?

Um…

No. [chuckles nervously]

Okay, so,

you know, sometimes you
might really be into someone

and that someone makes it seem
like they're really into you,

but they're really
into waffle fries?

Tyson,

Nikki is playing you.

Jade heard that she's using
you like an old dish rag.

What?

Well, I was trying to be
more graceful than that, but

yeah, yeah, she's
right. It's true.

You're her "food boo."

Mm.

I'm sorry, Tyson.

Mm. [chuckles]

I get it.

You a hater.

Look, my mom made me move out of
Detroit to get away from negativity,

and, so far, it's worked.

I'm happy,

got a good girl,

my lineup is very decent.

You don't want to see this
Black boy joy, just say that.

[scoffs]

Hate to say I told you so.

Actually, I didn't
hate that at all.

[upbeat music plays]

Oh.

Everyone looks amazing.

Yeah, you guys look
like, uh, winners.

Well, I got Skye down, so you guys can
go and enjoy yourselves worry-free.

- Thank you so much for watching him.
- My pleasure.

Darn. I forgot my phone at home.

Let's have our Uber stop at my
house before we go to the dance.

Have fun.

Thanks.

Wish me luck.

I have to pick out what to wear
tonight. You want to help me?

Why don't you ask your new partner
and see if she'll help you?

You're right. She has
a winning attitude.

Oh. You two are such
a gorgeous couple.

Glad to see the
hater recognizing it.

Oh.

Oh no, Nikki. You have some loose
thread on your shoulder seam here.

Let's step outside and
I can fix it for you.

- Thanks, girl.
- Mm-hmm. Of course.

Hey, look, Grandpa. Don't
believe what Jade says.

Nikki is a great girlfriend.
She really has my back.

[chuckles]

Well, that's what you
need in a good woman.

Tell me, uh, have
you figured out

how to use this darn
doorbell camera app?

[chuckles]

Well, it's nice to see you finally
upgraded from that flip phone.

You was one step away from
sending smoke signals.

But it's actually really easy.

See? You see Nikki
and Jade right there.

You can actually hear what
they're saying if you push this.

Um… [clears throat]

I overheard you at school saying
that you were using Tyson.

Girl, why wouldn't I use him?

When we have these looks, what
are we supposed to do with them?

Um, not what you're
doing. That's not okay.

Yeah, like these guys are not here
trying to get something from us too.

I'm striking a
blow for womanhood.

[scoffs] Okay. Well, Tyson
is not like these other guys.

He really likes you.

That's great.

He gets a beautiful girlfriend
and I get lunch. Everybody wins.

Well, I am not just going to sit
by and watch you use my cousin.

Well, then I suggest you close your
eyes as I walk back in that house.

Ciao.

Hey, sweetie. You ready to go?

- I ain't going to the dance with you.
- What? Why? What happened?

I get a beautiful girlfriend
and you get lunch?

That's all I am to
you? Some waffle fries?

Uh, why would you say that?

Well, Grandpa just
got a doorbell cam,

and you just got caught in 4k.

Wow, um, listening to
a private conversation.

Stalker alert.

- But, you know, I can forgive you...
- You know what, Nikki?

Kick rocks.

And don't come back when you
realize that you messed up.

Ciao.

[sighs]

Hey, good looking out, cuz.
Sorry for not listening to you.

It's okay. We're
family, remember?

You okay?

Yeah, I'm good.

All right, I'm going to go
upstairs and check on Skye.

Come on, son.

Have a seat.

You know, a girl
broke my heart once.

I was about your age.

Really?

Yeah. Deborah Lee.

[chuckles] She used me to
make another boy jealous.

Hmm.

Uh, it hurt for a while,

but then I met the love
of my life, Amelia.

Better known as M'Dear.

So,

getting played ended
up being a blessing.

God moves in mysterious ways.

I mean, yeah.

Couldn't He be a little gentler?

[chuckles]

[upbeat music plays]

♪ What's up? ♪

♪ What? What's up? ♪

- Are you ready?
- Mm-hmm.

- Where's your partner?
- Here I am!

Thanks for doing this, M'Dear.

I wasn't going to leave
you hanging, baby.

Let's win this thing,
McKellan style.

Now presenting
Moses McKellan, and…

- My mom.
- His mama.

[tango music plays]

They might get it.

[cheering and applause]

- That trophy is all but ours!
- Mm-hmm.

And now for our final couple.

- [door opens]
- What's going on?

That lady look like Cocoa.

I can't believe she just switched
partners on me like that.

I can't believe she
ain't got no clothes on.

[salsa music plays]

So this is what you do when
you don't want to compete.

Lord. Lord. Lord.

[cheering and applause]

Boo!

I never…

[upbeat music plays]

[sniffs]

[sniffs]

Ah!

I just talked to my parents and
told them we were on our way.

But I thought we were going to…

Oh, yeah, yeah, right.

Yeah. [chuckles]

So, uh, do we start by kissing?

Yeah, yeah, I think that's
an excellent place to start.

That picture's kind
of creeping me out.

Oh, that's my Nana and Pop-Pop.

I feel like they're watching
over me from heaven.

They don't need to see this.

We need some music.

Sure.

I have some music on my phone.

[romantic music plays]

Okay. Okay, this is nice.

[man] Ooh yeah, come on
down to Seafood City.

You want shrimp? We got 'em.
Talk about crawfish. Ooh!

Ah.

Sorry. My parents won't spring
for the commercial-free Spotify.

[sighs]

Look,

I really like you, Aaliyah,

but

I'm not as experienced
as you think.

How much experience do you have?

Well, I mean,

none.

So what was that I heard
you telling the guys?

It was a bunch of lies.

But I not gonna lie to you.

So what's the truth then?

The truth is

since this whole thing
came up, I've felt like,

I don't know,

excited and nervous and

some stuff I'm not sure
I have the words for.

But I still haven't felt

ready.

[sighs] Me too.

I've had butterflies in my stomach
and even my feet have been sweating.

But maybe that's because
I'm not wearing any socks.

So,

if we don't do it,

am I still your boyfriend?

Of course.

And, just so you know,

we're not the only nervous ones.

When Angie asked Shawnte to take
their relationship to the next level,

he threw up.

You mean, he was lying?

Maybe everyone who says
they're doing it is lying.

I'm glad you were
honest with me.

Now I don't feel like I
have to rush into anything.

Good.

We should wait until
we're both ready.

Let's go to the dance.

[upbeat music plays]

You see, Moz? I just went out there
to have a good time and I won.

Yeah, well, of course you
won. You had a ringer.

You dumped me and got
the teacher to compete.

Well, we would have won
if we'd had more time.

And it wouldn't have mattered to me
because I only wanted to have fun.

Oh.

You're talking crazy. Who
enters a competition not to win?

Someone who can do

this.

Well, I'm going to bed.

I must be seeing things.

[sighs]

Look, honey.

I just wanted us
to dance together,

because it's important to nourish
our connection as husband and wife.

All right. All right. All right.
All right. Look, I get it. I get it.

Coach Moz was a bit much.

I'm sorry for taking it too far.

Thank you for saying that.

Sometimes I want date-night Moz.

You know, the guy who still gets a
little misty-eyed at the end of Titanic.

Shh!

There was so much room
on the end of that plank.

Cocoa,

you're my best friend
and the love of my life

and I love having fun with you.

So, what do you say, we
take another dance class?

I'd love to.

But no more competitions.

Honey, let's just dance for fun.

You got it.

May I have this dance?

Only if it takes me upstairs.

Ooh!

[upbeat music playing]

Diva out.
