Raven's Home (2017–…): Season 2, Episode 4 - Cop To It - full transcript

When the new building manager accuses someone of tagging the side of their building, Raven thinks Tess is responsible.

Ah! This is the best
Scut day ever!

Ugh!

- Ugh!
- Ugh!

Ugh!

I've had it!

This building needs
recycling bins.

And hot water!

And faster Wi-Fi.

You done? You done?
You done?

Try not making any money
on your Scut shift

'cause you got
a flat tire.



Loser!

'Scuse me.

I got a job.

No, Rae!
It's spray-painted

- on your back.
- What?

Ugh! Oh, snap!

I must've gotten tagged
when I was changing my tire.

Wasn't me!

Well, why would you
even say that?

'Cause you always
blame me for stuff.

Did you,
or did you not,

delete the finale of
my favorite telenovela?

Now, how am I ever
going to find out

if Angeline pushes
her evil twin sister,



Ericka, into
the volcano!?

- Oh, oh! She did...
- No, no, no! No, no!

You did it!
No, you said it!

You said it! Ah!

Tess...

Oh! Well, here's
some good news.

Our building
has a new owner,

and he's hosting
a meet and greet

for all the tenants tonight!

Great! Maybe the new
owner will finally

do something about all
the problems

- around here.
- Oh, there's gonna be free food!

Maybe we can get
some sliders!

Sliders? I love slide...
Ah!

Now, Chels, I told you those
mop socks were dangerous!

Yeah, but...

at least I sprained my ankle
on a clean floor, right?

Episode Title :
"Cop To IT"

Man, I can't believe there's
no more sliders left!

I know.
That's crazy, right?

Let's just focus on
our list of complaints,

and hope the new owner
will listen.

Hey, where's Chelsea?

She's getting a ride
with Tess' uncle.

Well, unfortunately,

- this is my stop.
- Oh.

Thanks, Uncle Mike.

No problem, T.

Oo! Uncle Mike!

I think I might need a ride
back down the stairs.

I got a trick knee.

Nia, kick me in the knee.

Oh... dang! That trick
usually works.

Hello, everyone!

Hi,
thank you for coming.

I'm the new owner,
Richard Mosley.

Before we begin,

I'd like everyone to know

that I'll be living
here in the building.

So, I won't just
be your landlord.

I'll be your neighbor!

Well,
as our neighbor,

I think you'll see
that this building

really needs
recycling bins.

Oh! And hot water
that's actually hot.

And Wi-Fi that sends email
faster than regular mail.

I made a list.

Ah!

List makers.

Love it.

Uh, but because I oversee

so many business ventures,

I'm leaving the day-to-day
management of this building

to my right-hand man.

My son, Mitch!

Oo! We got a rich son.

I hope he's single.

I am!

You the son?

Mitch! Come on up here!

Wait a second,
hold up!

He is gonna be in charge
of the building?

Yeah, well,
I'll be overseeing him.

I'm grooming him to take over
the business one day.

And... that day is today.

Okay, bye now!
Pay your rents on time.

A kid?

He's definitely gonna
give us everything we want.

Thank you all
for these suggestions.

Please put them in
the suggestion box.

Whoa, we have
a suggestion box?

No, but the building
next door does.

Where you can move
if you don't like

that we don't have
a suggestion box.

Buy now!
Pay your rent on time.

- But...
- Ah!

- But...
- Nope!

- But...
- No more buts!

He said butts.

Who said that?

Who's the jokester?

Wasn't me!

Then it must've been you.

It wasn't me, it was her!

Nice. You're really
gonna blame it on a kid?

You're a kid!

I see what you're
trying to do here.

Making me look bad
on my first day.

Classic power move.

Well, here's
another power move.

Your apartment's now banned
from the laundry room

for one week.

Wha!?

- Key!
- Wha...

Ha! I ain't got no key!

Oh, it's okay, Rae.
I got it.

What!?

You can't do that!

Can. Did.

It's my building.

It's your
daddy's building.

That he put me
in charge of.

And put my sliders back!

- It's your daddy's sliders!
- Two weeks!

And thanks to your mom,

you can forget about
that list of yours.

Ugh! Oh!

Mom!

What? I was gonna
share the sliders!

No!
You made Mitch mad.

Oh, I'll talk
to him tomorrow.

- No! - No!
- No!

No offense, Mom,

but you may not be
the best messenger.

Yeah, let us handle this.

Kid to kid.

Okay. Thank you!

Thank y'all. Thank you.

Put 'em back!

Guys ready?

- Yeah.
- Yeah. Let's do it.

What do you want?

Hey, Mitch! Look,

we're sorry to bother you.
We just wanted to apologize

for our mom starting off
on the wrong foot.

Bagel and lox?

Smoked fish?

I'm 12!

What about fresh berries?

You mean the things
I knock off my waffles?

Pass!

Uh, how about a, uh,

donut?

Donut...

mind if I do!

So, does this mean

you'll accept
our apology,

and, uh, give us all
the things on our list?

No...

but I will
accept your donut.

Bye now!
Pay your rent on time.

It's all good.

I put another
list in the bag.

I told you
to let me handle

that little
Ty-runt-asaurus Rex.

Good news is
he took my donut.

And I stuffed
a third list

inside the little
jelly part,

so maybe he'll come around.

And here he is!

Hey, did you get the little
list I left inside the donut?

I don't know,
I ate it whole.

I'm here
for another reason.

Did you just walk
into my apartment

like you own
the place?

I do own the place!

Oh, well,
I pay the rent!

Not on time!

- You right.
- Anyway,

I was just informed that

someone spray-painted
the word "butt"

on the front of
the building's dumpster.

And I'm pretty sure
it's one of you.

Why would you think that?

Because you were doing all
the "but-ing," at my meeting.

That doesn't mean
one of us would

graffiti the dumpster!

I think it does.

So, who was it?

While you think
about that,

is it possible to
discuss the whole

two week laundry ban?

- Three weeks.
- What? Three weeks?

Come on! For what?

For asking!

I'll be watching you, Red.

I'll be watching all of you.

Hey, Mitch.

Tell your mother
to pay her rent!

Bye now!

How am I supposed
to do laundry

for three weeks, huh?

I can't get
to the laundromat

on this ankle!

You know,

there are other ways to
get into the laundry room.

If you know
what I'm saying.

Is that a lock pick?

You say lock pick.

I say spare key...

to everywhere.

Come on, Nia.
I got an extra one.

- Wait!
- Let's go have some fun.

- Wait a minute, now.
- Mom?

- Huh?
- She's kidding.

Okay, you're funny!
Ha ha ha! Be careful!

Think about me! I'm your mama!

What kind of person
carries a lock pick?

Mom, it's no big deal!

It's just Tess being Tess.

- Yeah!
- At least she was nice

enough to let me borrow
her spare key

to everywhere, huh?

Even though I, uh,
don't know how to use it.

Well, we gotta
figure it out

because I need
clean underwear.

I'm tired of
wearing Booker's.

What?

Sorry.

Desperate times.

You know what,
Booker?

Starting to worry
about your sister

hanging out with that
Tess character.

Mom, Tess is cool.

You're just overreacting.

I knew it.

What'd you see?

I saw Tess in the back
of a cop car with Nia.

Did you say Winia?

That sista that lives in 2C?

No!

I said, "with Nia,"

the sista that
lives here in 3B.

Oh...

I knew Tess was trouble.

Now, she's dragging my baby
into a life of crime.

My baby's going
to the big house!

Mom, Tess isn't bad.
We know her!

Do we, Booker?

Do we really?

Yes, Ma.

Yes, we do.

You know what?

I bet Tess
was the one

who tagged the side
of that dumpster.

I'ma tell Mitch.

And I bet I'm gonna
get a reward.

I bet he's gonna
let me slide on the rent.

Oo! Or better!
Gimme some more them sliders.

- Mom,
- Mm-hmm.

You don't know for sure
that Tess is the tagger.

And Nia won't
do anything bad.

Just let me look into it.

Alright, but my
money's on that,

"wasn't-me-saying,
lock-pick-having, DVR-deleting,

side-hat-wearing, butt-tagger."

Well, right now, you're being a,
"conclusion-jumping,

"worry-for-nothing,
reward-seeking, slider-wanting,

staring-at-me-like-
I-better-shut-up mom."

Well, you got
one part right.

Them sliders!

Go get' em!

No, she's never
done it before,

but she'll be cool.

Great! We'll meet you there.

We're doing this!

Are you sure
about this, Tess?

Yeah, I do it
all the time.

But, it sounds
kind of scary.

That's what makes it
so much fun!

The rush,
the adventure,

the thrill...

You know what?

I do like a thrill.
Let's do this.

Sweet! There's my
partner in crime.

Ma?

I think you might
be right about Tess.

And I think your vision's
coming true.

Okay, honey.
Now,

you keep a lookout,
while I pick the lock.

We need a code word
in case we see Mitch.

Mitch is here.

That's good,
honey, I like it.

No! Mitch is here!

Four weeks. Hand it over.

Oh, man. Here.

Not your crutch!

- Not your kid!
- What?

Oh!

Fine.

Here you go.

Run, Levi!

Run! Come on!

Come on, Levi!
Come on!

Come on!

She won't get far.

So, we just sit here
and wait for Nia and Tess

to come out of the building
and start tagging?

Yep. We catch 'em
in the act,

we stop 'em, and my vision
never comes true.

Why don't we just say
something to them?

Because, Booker,

you can't go around
accusing people.

No, honey.
No, see, look.

You can sneak around on 'em,

and you can snoop on 'em,

but accusing them
is just plain wrong.

And, and you're sure
they're in there?

Yes, Booker.
I'm su... Look. Look!

I'm tracking
Nia's phone right now.

She's still in the building.
Now, just...

just calm down, and pretend
you're on like, a...

a stakeout, right?

From one of those
cop shows you watch?

Yeah, okay.

Book 'em, Booker!

What was that?

It's my catchphrase!

If we're on a stakeout,
I need a catchphrase.

That's a good idea!

I want one! I want one!
Okay, wait, hold on.

I got it.

Sez you.

But, that has nothing
to do with anything.

Sez you.

See? It works!
It works!

Now, keep your eye
on the building.

Sez you.

Hey, that's mine.

Oh!

Oh, hey, Winia.
Hey, sister.

How you doing?

Okay, listen.

The coast is clear.

Is baby bird ready to cry?

To fly, Mom. Fly.

And, yes.

Five weeks!

Mom, wake up!
You fell asleep.

Sez you!

We are so
not good at this.

Oh... No, it's okay.

It's okay,
sweetheart. I'm, uh,

I'm still tracking her phone. She's still
in the building, don't worry about it.

Good,

but maybe we need to do
something to stay awake.

That's a good idea.

You know what?
I'ma order some Chinese food.

- Yep.
- There it is.

Egg roll...

That's... I, I want
another egg roll.

I did not see
this coming.

- Mom, wake up!
- Huh? Ugh!

Dang you, Golden Dragon!

Your Sleepy Noodles
are so good.

I just had a vision,

and Nia and Tess
were behind bars!

What? My baby
got a reservation

at the grey bar hotel?

Mm-mmm! Mm-mmm!

And it looks like they
about to check in!

There they are in
the back of that cop car!

That was
my vision, Booker!

Except for they were
looking back at us.

Doesn't matter.
Is your belt on?

- Yeah.
- Alright, baby.

- Mama's coming, baby!
- Okay.

Oh! Oh!

- Ow...
- Uh-oh.

Mama hit a cop car.

Okay.

I'm guessing that
was your vision.

I did not see
this coming.

Neither did I.

We got booked,
Booker.

Okay, you're free to go.

I convinced my partner
to let you off the hook

'cause my niece
here knows you.

Thanks,
Uncle Mike.

Oo, Uncle Mike. Ow!

Oh! Oh, my ankle!

Oh ho, my ankle!
Uncle Mike,

I'ma need you to
carry me to my car.

Booker, kick me
in the ankle.

Wait, Uncle Mike!

Hold up!
I got shin splints!

My patella hurts!

Man, you supposed
to protect,

and serve!

Mom, is there any place
you won't embarrass us?

No. Nia, why were you in the
back of the cop car with Tess?

What were you doing hitting
the back of a cop car?

Uh uh uh, you first.
I'm the mama.

Fine.

Tess' uncle was patrolling
the neighborhood for the tagger,

and she wanted me
to go along with them.

She goes all the time.

I think she might wanna be
a police officer one day.

- Wow.
- How about that?

Why? What did you
think I was doing?

Mom thought Tess
was the tagger,

and that she was gonna
drag you along with her.

- Booker!
- Mom!

What? It's only because

Booker overheard
a suspicious conversation

when he was
spying on you two.

- Booker!
- Mom!

- Booker!
- Oh...

You spied on us?

To be fair,

it was because
I had a vision

that you and Tess were in
the back of the cop car.

And I had
a vision, too!

Of what I thought was
you and Tess in jail.

Turns out,
it was us in jail.

- It's kinda funny, huh?
- It is funny.

She doesn't
think it's funny.

Well, I hope you two,
and your visions are happy.

Obviously, Tess isn't
the tagger, okay?

So, you can
cut her a break.

- Sorry, baby.
- Sorry, Nia.

If Tess isn't the tagger,

then who is?

Couldn't sneak
into the laundry room, huh?

We made do!

- We had to use the dishwasher.
- Yeah.

Ha! Five weeks of this, huh?

What you want,
tiny dancer?

I have found some
incriminating evidence,

that just may prove
who the tagger is.

And it's someone
in this room!

Dun dun dun!

Are you done, done, done?

Sorry, that
just felt right.

Now,

let's see who's
the tagger.

Was it...

Booker!?

You wanted a new
hot water heater,

so your BUTT
wouldn't freeze

during your showers.

You're accusing me?

I fed you donuts!

Or,

was it...

Levi!?

- Mommy!
- Oh, honey!

He complained
the building's slow Wi-Fi

was a pain in the BUTT!

Or was it...

Nia!?

With her quest
for recycling bins,

she wasn't taking
any ifs, ands,

or BUTTS for an answer.

Or was it...

you!?

I, I don't even get a gasp?

Thank you, Chels.

Oh, no.
I just realized,

I forgot to put fabric softener
in the dishwasher.

So, you're all suspects,

but only one of
you are guilty.

Will you get to the point?

I like drama.

I give you exhibit A!

After I busted
Big Red and Little Red,

I noticed they
dropped a sweater

with spray paint on it!

And then,

I smiled sinisterly.

And when I compared the color
of the paint on the sweater,

to the color of the graffiti,

perfect match.

And again,

I smiled sinisterly.

So, who would wear
what appears to be

a 12-year-old
girl's sweater?

I think it's
pretty obvious.

Could only be...

- you!
- Me!?

Just kidding.

It was Nia!

- Nia? - Nia?
- Nia? - Nia?

Baby girl, is that true?

No!

It isn't.

'Cause I did it.

I knew it!

Wait a minute. That doesn't
explain the sweater.

I borrowed that sweater from
Nia when I tagged the building.

I knew it!
Wait a minute,

you would never wear
one of Nia's sweaters.

You know what?
I'm starting to believe,

I have... no idea
what is going on!

It's because
you don't, Mom.

Tess didn't do it.
It was actually...

Me.

Dun dun dun!

Oh, so that's how you do it.

Once I knew Mitch was never
gonna do anything on our list,

I started writing,
"Bottles and Cans,"

on the dumpster
for tenants to recycle in.

But, I heard someone coming,

I panicked, and when
I turned to leave,

my elbow wiped off
the top of the "O,"

making it a "U,"

and leaving the word "butt."

Nia, I can't
believe you did that.

I apologize, Mom.

Recycling
and the environment

is important
to me, but...

I guess I went about it
the wrong way.

Yeah, you did.

Thank you for trying to take
the fall for me, but...

why would you do that?

'Cause I didn't
wanna see

my best friend
get in trouble.

And besides,

your mom always
thinks it's me

doing bad stuff anyway.

So, I may as well
go with it.

Thank you.

- Mom?
- Yeah?

Mom, do you, uh,

have something you
wanna say to Tess?

Do I have to?

- Yes!
- Yes!

Hey, Tess.

I, um...

I like the way you wear
your hat to the side.

And?

I was wrong about you, Tess.

You're a good friend to Nia.

And Nia, I should
have trusted

your judgment
in friends.

She okay.

Thanks, Ms. B.

Look,

I know I'm around
here a lot,

and I kinda get on
your nerves sometimes,

but I just really
like it here.

It's kinda like home.

Aw.

Oh,

that was so touching.

Made me cry.

Now, gimme that
list of complaints.

Thank you, Mitch!

No, thank you.

Ah, that's better!

Wait a minute, now!
Come here!

Now, I called
the city, alright?

And this building is required
to have recycling bins,

hot water, Wi-Fi that works,

and laundry room access.

So until then, you can forget
about cashing my rent check,

which you probably not gonna get for,
like, another three weeks, but still!

I'm sure your daddy's gonna
love to hear all about this.

You wouldn't dare.

Try me...

I can't believe
they're still going.

It's amazing.

Shh, wait!

Think your mom is
trying to say something.

Ah! She's sleeping! I win!

Ah, sez you! Gotcha!
