Raven's Home (2017–…): Season 5, Episode 15 - The Fierce Awakens - full transcript

[♪ ♪]

You're getting in
on the ground floor

of the hottest new fashion house

in San Francisco.

What makes you think
you're cut out

to be my assistant?

You were looking for
the restroom, weren't you?

Downstairs to the right.

I need someone
with people skills,

who can take notes, organize,

help with presentations



and is always alert.

(snores)

Are you sleeping?

I'll let you know.

Okay. Yeah.

Well, this resume is impressive.

Um, just one question.

Which one of you is Jeff?

That's what I was afraid of.

(sighs) I can't believe it.

Twenty interviews
and my best option

is Jeff the dummy.

What's up with that?

I know.



Can you believe
she's doing lip kits now?

Ashley is such basic garbage.

I love her so much.

Who are you?

I'm Nikki.
I'm your three o'clock.

Um, it's 4:30.

Okay, so I'm your 4:30.

Got to go.
Hate you. Love you.

Thanks. I'm literally
dying of thirst.

I poured that for me.

I don't think you want it.

It's not even bubbling.
I think it's expired.

Nikki, is it?
Hey, Nikki, you know,

I don't think
this is going to work.

Babe, it has to.

My dad says the only way
for me to get my trust fund

is if I have a job.

What even is that?

So you want me to hire you
even though you are unqualified,

unmotivated, and uninterested?

I can also be unpaid.

You're so hired.

[♪ ♪]

Hi. I'm here to see miss Baxter.

Sweetie, I don't know
who you're talking about.

- Oh, hey, Ivy.
- Hi, miss Baxter.

Oh, you're Raven Baxter.

People have been calling
for you all morning.

Who was that?

That is my new assistant Nikki.

Don't worry,
I'm not paying her anything.

Oh. Yeah, it's still too much.

So Booker said
you wanted to see me.

I did. Check it out.

This is my new collection.

And I want you to model it

for the launch
of my online shop.

Model? Really? Me?

Yes, you.

You are smart.
You are confident.

And you are beautiful.

You are perfect for this.

I mean,
I've always considered myself

more brains than beauty,

but if you think I'm both.

(laughs) who am I to argue?

- So you'll do it?
- I'd love to.

Oh, thank you so much.

Alright, Nikki,
send her the details.

No problem.
What are the details?

- Really?
- Yeah.

Oh, we have a photo shoot here

tomorrow at seven.

- Did you get all that?
- Got it.

Can you email it to me?
Because I already forgot it.

Booker, we've been doing
such a good job

keeping our relationship
a secret.

- Should we be here?
- Don't worry.

My mom's caught up
at the design studio,

so we're all good.

Okay.

Well, in that case...

Happy sneak-iversary!

Girl, I love... Ketchup socks?

Well, remember
the first time that we met?

I asked for ketchup
and then you gave me napkins.

- That's called game.
- (door opens)

My mom's home!

What are you up to?

Nothin'.

Oh, okay, so you're just
sitting at home alone

reading a copy of
single mom monthly?

Fine. Cami's here.

(gasps) no.

Oh, I just thought
that blanket was rockin'

some knee-high boots.

Look, Alice, you can't tell
my mom we're dating.

I wouldn't dream
of saying a thing...

For ten bucks.

Fine. Here.

Thank you.
Each.

What you waiting for?
Pay the girl.

- I don't have any cash.
- Oh, that's cool.

I take cards.

Yeah. Right there.

That's nice.

Oh.

Okay. Nikki,
a little help, please.

Now?

Yes.

I am not not paying you
so you can sit around

and stare at your phone.

Fine. What are we even doing?

I'm trying to finish this dress
for the shoot tonight.

You know who would
look cute in this?

- The principal's daughter.
- Who?

My new social media obsession.

Remember the video
you made me stop watching

to do whatever this is.

Today, I paired these
cute combat boots

with this green skirt
that's serving up

military realness.

Oh. It reminds me of my mom
who is such a dictator.

Like, this one time,
she made me go to cabo...

- That's cami.
- You know her?

That's who you should get
to model your clothes.

She has, like,
a million followers.

I can't. I already booked Ivy
for the shoot.

Besides, I'd never ask cami.

(whooshing)

Everyone is loving the post.

Your online shop already has
so many new followers.

I'm thinking
I should ask cami.

(gasps)
you're ditching Ivy for cami.

Ruthless.

Turns out the devil
wears yoga pants.

Compression pants.

I am not ditching Ivy, alright?

I'm replacing her
with a more well-known

and influential face
that will just boost

and get my brand out there.

I am definitely ditching Ivy.

Raven, relax.

It's just business.

You're right. You're right.
We're not doing anything wrong.

But you should probably
keep this from Ivy

until you know cami's in.

Don't you mean
we should keep this from Ivy?

Did you just make me a partner?

More like an accomplice.

[♪ ♪]

Whoa. Slow down.

I need to... Ketchup.

Oh, you're wearing them.

And I got something for you.

It says "queen" on it because you're...
My queen.

Ooh!

Uh, hey, miss Baxter!
What are you doing here?

Well, first,
I really like your hat.

Yeah, I got the same one.
Booker gave it to me.

Oh really?

So, cami, I, um,

I need to talk to you.

Me? O-okay.

- Yeah...
- Miss Baxter.

What are you doing here?
Is this about the shoot?

No, no, no, no, no.
This is, um,

this is definitely
not about the shoot.

- Oh good, good.
- Good. Yeah.

All good. No reason to be ne.

Yeah, well,
why would I be nervous?

No, no, no. No, I just said
there's no reason to be nervous.

Okay, great, yeah.
Because I'm not.

- Good. Neither am I.
- Yeah.

No reason to be, to be nervous.

Both: See you tonight.

That was weird.

Did you gift me your mom's hat?

How's that?
Do I look model-y?

How do I put this?

No.

Why'd your mom have
to come down to the school

and freak me out?

I'm so nervous.

You know, maybe I should quit.

No, you can't quit, alright?

My mom's counting on you.

You're going to do great.

I'm going to be here for you
every step of the way.

- Thank you.
- (cell phone chimes)

Oh, it's cami. She wants me
to meet her. Bye.

- Look...
- (door closes)

You got this.

Modeling's easy.

(scoffs) how would you know?

Because I was
little Mr. San Francisco

three years in a row.

What is that?

Oh, it's like
little Miss San Francisco

but... for little misters.

Wow. That is so embarrassing.

You won three years in a row?

- Mm-hmm.
- Neil, you have to help me.

Sorry, but I swore
I'd never model again.

- Neil, please.
- I can't.

Miss Baxter is counting on me.

(sighs)

I can't believe
I'm going to do this.

- Alright.
- Okay.

The secret to being
a great model

is you have to harness
the power of the fierce.

- The what?
- The fierce.

- The what?
- The fierce.

It's the savage energy
that flows through all models

and gives them
their fabuliciousness.

I need to see
the research on that.

All you need to see is this.

(angelic music plays)

(gasps)

It's so beautiful.

Neil, make me one
with the fierce.

Hey.

Why are we meeting here?
You want my mom to see us?

- Yes.
- No, the answer's no!

It's always no.

Booker, sneaking around
used to be fun, okay,

but I'm done hiding.

I mean, what are we
so afraid of?

My mom. Hide!

Hey, mom. What you doing?

I'm just here
kicking it... Solo.

You going to work?

- Listen.
- Oh, you're sitting down. Okay.

- I had a vision.
- Of course, you did.

Because you're a visionary

who envisions things
and makes them happen.

You're right.

- But my vision was...
- ♪ you're a visionary ♪

♪ visionary ♪

(high pitched)
♪ you're a visionary mama, ooh ♪

I love that song.

So what you want to talk about?

Listen, I know you're over cami.

And you said that
you never wanted to talk

to that basic girl again.

I nev...
I never said basic.

Those are your words.

No, those are not my words.
I got...

- Booker: Those are your words.
- Raven: You said basic.

I would have never
called her basic, mom.

What do you want?

Well, I want cami to model
in my photo shoot,

but the problem is
I already asked Ivy.

Oh no, I just saw Ivy,
and she's totally freaked out.

I'm sure she'd be fine
not doing the shoot.

Really?

That's perfect.
Do you think you can ask cami for me?

Yeah.

I mean, I can try to get
in touch with her.

That's perfect.
Thanks, babes.

Hey, cami, did you hear that?

The part where
you called me basic.

You're missing the point.

If you model for my mom,
she'll see

the amazing girl that I adore
and we can stop sneaking around.

There has to be an easier way.

Trust me,
this is the easier way.

(leaf blower whirring)

(yelling) how am I doing?

(yelling) what?

I said...

How am I doing?

(leaf blower shuts off)

You don't have to yell.

What's with
the leaf blower, anyway?

To become one with the fierce,

a model must be able to shut out

all external distractions.

Also makes your hair look good.

Are you sure
this is going to work?

Trust me.
I have a plan.

Hit it, Alice!

Whoa! (Screams)

- (clattering)
- (laughs)

I meant the music.

Oh, I know.

Shouty face! Pouty face!

Shouty face!
Pouty face!

Come on, Ivy.
You can do this!

(leaf blower whirring)

- Yes!
- (grunts)

Yes! Now pose!

How did I do?

- Getting better.
- Oh, can I see?

- No!
- No!

Duck face! Yuck face!

Ducky face! Yucky face!

(leaf blower whirring)

I think she's getting it!

(angelic music plays)

You did it.

You found the fierce.

(sniffles)

My work here is done.

Now go. Go!

My mom was so excited
when I told her you were in.

Alright, so you have nothing
to be scared of.

Scared?

Booker, I've modeled in Fresno.

By the end of the shoot,
your mom's going to love me.

Maybe even more
than she loves you.

Okay, shkoo,

let's not get carried away.

(gasps)

There's my model.

Oh, thank you so much
for doing this for me, cami,

and I know this must be weird
for the two of you.

Why would it be weird?

Well, because you guys haven't
talked since you broke up.

- Right.
- So weird.

Uh, please, miss Baxter,
I am happy to help.

Oh, are these your designs?

Yes.

Wow. I am totally fangirling.

Oh, that's sweet.

Nikki, why don't you show her
to the dressing room?

I'm Nikki, Raven's assistant.

- I'm obsessed with you.
- Oh.

You being here, kind of my idea.

And by kind of, I mean totally.

Oh, this is really working out.

I bet Ivy was so relieved

when you told her
she didn't have to do it.

Oh, I didn't talk to her,
Nikki did.

But I'm sure it's all good.

The model has arrived.

Ivy.

You're here.

Nikki!

Look, Ivy's here.

Give me a minute.

Excuse me.

I told you to call Ivy

and tell her that
the shoot was canceled.

Chill, I scheduled the call
with Ivy for tomorrow.

But I needed you
to call her about today.

Raven, I can't do everything.

I just needed you
to do one thing.

[♪ ♪]

I have to get rid of Ivy

before cami comes out
of the dressing room.

I'll tell her
the shoot is canceled.

Are you sure?
Because I totally can.

(high-pitched muttering)

You can't cancel the shoot.

This is cami's chance to show you
what an amazing person she is.

Why do you care?
You broke up with her.

You broke up with her?

Hmm. Something's up.

Let's not make this about me
and cami, alright?

Because there is no
me and cami, alright?

There's me

and then way over there is cami.

You know what?
I'll go get rid of Ivy.

Hey, Ivy.
Good news, alright?

My mom canceled the shoot,
so now you don't have

- to be nervous.
- Oh, I'm not nervous.

Neil taught me
the power of the fierce.

- It's a savage energy...
- yeah, yeah, yeah,

that sounds super interesting.

Let's talk about this
anywhere else.

I'm ready for the shoot.

Cami? What's going on?

I thought the shoot
was canceled.

Canceled?
But I just got dressed.

It's not canceled for you.

It's canceled for you.

See, that would have been
way less awkward

if I told her tomorrow.

Ivy, you weren't supposed
to find out like this.

- I am so sorry.
- No, I get it.

You don't think
I have what it takes.

No, no, that's not what I said.

I think you would be
an amazing model.

It's okay, miss Baxter.
Let Ivy do it.

Let Ivy do it?
We have a plan, remember?

Oh. You're not going
to let me do anything.

I'm going to prove
that I'm the better choice.

Are you saying
what I think you're saying?

Oh yeah.

- Model-off.
- Booker/Raven: Oh!

Ivy, let's not make this
more difficult for miss Baxter.

What's the matter, cami?

You scared?

Both: Ohh!

- Scared?
- Mm-hmm.

Oh, this model-off is on!

Both: Oh snap!

[♪ ♪]

- Hey, Neil.
- Hmm?

Remember when you said
you'd never model again?

- Mm-hmm.
- Why was that?

Oh, I was in the running

for my fourth consecutive

little Mr. San Francisco
pageant.

I thought I had it
in the bag, but I lost,

and I did not handle it well.

No, no, you did not.

Uh, how would you know?

Do the words
"little Mr. San Francisco

epic freakout"
mean anything to you?

I have the fierce!

I have
the fierce!

I'm little Mr. San Francisco!

- Forever!
- (table clatters)

(screams)

Do you really think it was a good idea
to teach Ivy the fierce?

Okay, Ivy will be fine.

She's just doing a photo shoot.

The dark side of the fierce
only comes out

under times of extreme stress.

Like a, a pageant
or a reality show

or a model-off.

I mean, what are the chances
that Ivy's involved

in a model-off?

(phone rings)

(clears throat)

What up, Booker?

Really? Okay.

Alright, yeah.
Thanks for calling.

Bye-bye.

Ivy's gotten herself
into a model-off, hasn't she?

Yeah. We got to go.

[♪ ♪]

Alright. I want
a good, clean model-off.

The rules are simple.
Whoever impresses me wins.

Whoever impresses me wins.

Fine. Us.

Okay, cami, look,
the camera already loves you.

But after you win this
model-off, my moms will too.

Okay, don't worry
about me, okay.

I got this.

And I got the fierce.

Hit the music.

(dance music playing)

Alright, girls, let's do this.

Give me high fashion.

Yes! You own the stage.

Pow! Pow! Give me commercial.

Ooh, you own the world!

Girls, get it. Uh!

Oh yes.

Give me "it girl."

Pow! Pow!

Yes! Give me "shy girl."

Pow! Bam!

Oh! Oh!

Give me cheetah girl.

Ooh, yes.

Now hold that pose for me.

Hold it! Hold it! Hold! Hold!

Hold on. Oh.

Ooh. Y'all okay?

(both laugh)

What are we even doing?

I don't know.

This is ridiculous.

Yeah.

You know, you're actually
really good.

- Thanks.
- Mm-hmm.

I'm going to pretend
you didn't say actually.

Ivy, I want to apologize

for not telling you about cami,

but you were amazing.

Will you still be
the face of my line?

I'd love to.

And I'm sorry, cami...

For giving you that smoke.

- Ooh.
- (laughter)

Yeah, I can't believe I won.

This is my first time
modeling ever.

Don't tell Raven,

but this is my first time
working ever.

Oh, Raven knows, honey.
Raven knows.

Cami, I hope you don't feel bad.

Oh, I'm fine.
I only really did this to impress you.

What?

Well, the truth is, um,

Booker and I
didn't really break up.

We've been secretly dating
for the past month.

Y'all been doin' what?

Yeah. What?

Give it up, Booker.

Sorry, mom.

Miss Baxter, um...
I really like your son.

He's kind, smart.

(chuckles)
he thinks he's funny.

He does think he's funny,
doesn't he?

Mom, I just wanted you
to see cami

the way I see her.

Well, I'm not okay
with you guys sneaking around,

but... I can see
why you like her.

I don't know why
you called her basic.

I never said basic!

Well, cami, what does
your mom think about all this?

I haven't told her yet.

Oh, she don't know?

I'm the first to know?

I will give you my blessing

if you promise to record it
when you tell her,

'cause, ooh, it's about to be good.
(laughs)

(cami gasps)

Wow, Ivy. You look incredible.

Thank you.

Now all that's left
is to pick something

that'll make you sparkle.

Let's choose... This.

(gasps) oh, I got to have that.

Of course.

No, Ivy, no!

What? What?

Neil, what are you doing?

You have to fight the fierce!
You have to!

Neil, give me the tiara!

I'm little Mr. San Francisco!

- Forever!
- (table clatters)

(grunts)

(panting)

Come on, buddy.
Let's go for a walk.

I'm little Mr. San Francisco.

A long walk.

- I'm little Mr. San Francisco.
- I know.

I can't believe it's time
to launch my online shop.

I know.
This is so exciting.

Who knew Ivy had
modeling skills like that?

Usually she's so awkward.

And she's right here.

I'm just saying
you're a great model.

- Oh, you're welcome.
- Neil, you're still on thin ice.

Once again, I am terribly sorry.

Okay, here goes nothing.

(notifications chiming)

(squeals)

People are loving the shop!

Oh, thank you
so much for posting on your account, cami.

Oh, but I haven't
posted anything yet.

I did. I tagged your shop
in the video I posted

of Neil's meltdown
at your studio.

It went completely viral.
Hashtag "you're welcome."

Neil:
I'm little Mr. San Francisco!

- Forever!
- (table clatters)

Hashtag "never living
that one down."

Everyone is loving the post.

Your online shop already has
so many new followers!

All because of Neil's
epic freakout.

And my new assistant.

Thanks, Nikki.

Looks like someone earned
a vacation week.

(clears throat)

Vacation day.

A long lunch.

- I'll buy you lunch.
- There it is.

It's so nice to not have
to sneak around anymore.

Yeah, there are some things
I'm going to miss.

Shh!

Keep it down.

I'm trying to watch the movie.

Like privacy.

I said shh!

This is my favorite part.

The boy's mom just found out
they were dating,

and she doesn't
leave them alone ever.

Never. Never ever.

Mom, that's not
what this movie's about.

Oh, I wasn't talkin' about the movie.
