485, 86, 87.

That's $10 worth of nickels.
That's 497.

That mean I owe you
three more dollars.

This should be worth five bucks.

You just keep the change.

Thank you.

Yo, I got some exciting news!
Guess who got his car fixed?

Ah, ah, ah! I don't have time
for guessing games, Booker.

Jason momoa just cut his leg,

and he, he took his shirt off
to make a tourniquet.



Mama, that's aquaman.

You won't even
get your hair wet.

For momoa,

I'll take my wig off.

That's a weird thing to say in
front of your son and your dad.

What are you goin' on about?

I got my car fixed!

- Janine is ready to roll.
- (jingling)

So, you're telling me you
raised the funds on your own,

bought an engine,

hired a mechanic
to put it in your car,

without any help
from either one of us?

Yep.

- (laughter)
- He got jokes!



Why you lyin'?
You lyin'?

Guys, I'm serious.

No, I'm serious.
I'm Mrs. Jason momoa.

I'm not kidding.
Look, here's the receipt.

Oh, wow. Oh, wow!
He actually did it!

- Why do you sound so surprised?
- 'cause I am surprised.

I'm proud of you.

Well, mom, riding on that pride,

I'm gonna ask you something.

You have to promise me
you won't say no.

I can't promise,
but I'll try my best.

Okay.

Will you let me drive my car
to the basketball game tonight?

(laughs)
Yes, Booker, you cannot.

Season 05 Episode 20

Episode Title: Stylin’ & Profilin’
Aired on: October 21, 2022.

Oh, come on, mom.
Why can't I drive to the game?

Yeah, Rae,
why won't you let him drive?

You sound like somebody
who's afraid to let

their baby bird
fly out the nest.

Yeah, yeah! And this
baby bird, he need to fly!

If he could fly,
he wouldn't need to drive.

I get it, Raven. You're nervous.

I was a wreck, too, the first
time you got behind the wheel.

When did you stop
being so nervous?

I'm hoping any day now.

Look, I've been in
the car with Booker.

He's an excellent driver.

Yeah, yeah,
and the school's not that far away.

I promise, ma,
I'll drive super careful.

Alright, I'll drive
like an old man.

I'll drive like grandpa Vic!

I'm done helping.

Please, mom.

Okay, but listen, Booker,

when that game is over, I need
you to come straight home.

Don't stop. Don't go anywhere.

- Deal.
- Okay, a-and no

on the phone and driving.

No problem!

And I don't want anybody
else in that car, Booker.

Not one person.

The only person in that car
will be me, alright?

S-so, can I go?

- Yeah, you can go.
- Yes!

Thank you, mom! I'ma go
figure out what I'ma wear!

How about a shirt,
some pants, and a seat belt?

You're doin' the right thing,
Raven.

Uh-uh, don't talk to me.

Mister "I'ma get him
a car with no engine.

Ooh, he'll never get it fixed."

Who knew he'd be
so responsible?

I thought he'd take after you.

[♪♪]

Hey, Alice. Are you excited about
going to Dylan's birthday party?

What? Dylan's party isn't today.

I'm going to the dentist.

Dylan's party is today, but...

Tasha wasn't invited, so I'm
gonna need you to watch her.

Watch her?
She's just a doll.

Just a doll? What if
I called you just a pop-pop?

(Gasps)

Hurts, doesn't it?

Here are her favorite things,

a list of instructions,
and emergency contacts.

Emergency contacts?

What do you think
is gonna happen to her?

Nothing.

If you follow the instructions.

- (Car honking)
- That's my ride. I'm out!

Have fun.
I'm gonna open Tasha's eyes

to the riveting world
of pro football.

(laughs)
Oh, pop-pop.

Check page 42 of
the instruction manual.

Tasha doesn't "do" sports.

I'll see you later!

[♪♪]

(Cool music)

[♪♪]

What's up, Booker?

The price of gas.

How would I know?

Because I drove here.

So that's why you were walking
down the hall in slow motion.

No, I was traveling
at the speed of cool.

- Hey.
- Hey. Booker drove Janine here.

Nice, dude!

Did you do few laps around the
school so people could see you?

Please tell me
you're not a dude

who needs that
kind of attention.

- Ivy, you know me.
- You did it.

Of course, I did it!

Yeah, I tried that,
but since I don't have a car,

people just thought
I was jogging, so...

Okay! Yeah, I'm comin'!

You don't have to yell.

The mouth on that guy.

Alright,
see you after the game!

I'll be the guy in the
parking lot leaning on his car.

Why are you yelling?

How else are people supposed
to hear that I have a car?!

[♪♪]

- (Indistinct TV chatter)
- Come on, ref, call something.

We haven't seen a flag
since the national anthem!

(Gasps) Go. Go.

Go. Go. Go! Go! Go! Go!

- Yes! Ha, ha!
- (crunch)

Ooh. That didn't sound good.

- Referee (on TV): Unnecessary roughness.
- Unnecessary roughness?

But it was an accident!

Referee (on TV):
Fifty-yard penalty!

If Alice sees this,
it's definitely gonna be a penalty.

[♪♪]

Hey, that was a great game.

Who knew Neil was gonna hit
the game-winning shot.

Not me.
I lost five bucks.

Oh yeah, you did! Pay up!

I never would've figured Evelyn
dark soul for a basketball fan.

She came to last year's
championship game.

- She even smiled.
- Did you guys win?

No, we lost.
The whole team was crying.

She loved it.

I got to go.

Oh, hey, can I get a ride?

- In my car?
- No.

On your back.
Yes, in your car.

Oh! You're giving
Ivy a ride? Cool.

Can you drop me off, too?

- I don't know.
- What do you mean, you don't know?

I helped you run that hotel
to get money for your car.

And I didn't talk you two
out of running that hotel

to get money for your car.
So, when you think about it,

this is basically our car.

Yeah, but...

(whooshing)

(Echoing): Dropped everyone
off and didn't get in trouble.

(Whooshing)

So? You giving us
a ride or what?

And please don't say "or what."

looks like I'm giving
you two a ride.

(laughs)
Just the three of us.

Why are there five people
in this car?

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

I am not telling him that his
car smells like feet and onions!

Cuda says thanks for giving him
a ride home, Booker.

You're welcome.

Hey, why'd you offer
dark soul a ride home?

I'm trying to make
more female friends.

We'll get there.

Ooh! There's a blimpo's!
Let's go through the drive-thru.

Nope, nope. I just want to get
everyone to their destinations

without any mishaps.

But it's right there!

- I could eat.
- I know cuda's hungry.

And I heard darksoul's stomach
growling, or she was growling.

Either way, we should
go to blimpo's.

Guys, no.

Both: Blimpo's! Blimpo's! Blimpo's!
Blimpo's! Blimpo's! Blimpo's...

Okay, fine! Fine!
We'll go to blimpo's!

Both:
Yeah!

[♪♪]

Alice:
Thank you! See you next time!

Hey, Alice!

You're back!
I bet you're exhausted.

Why don't you go upstairs
and take a nap?

Or maybe you're hungry
for ice cream or candy

or for anything
that's not in this room.

- What's going on?
- Tasha's fine.

Why'd you say Tasha's fine?

Because she is.
Do you want candy or not?

They only had carrot cake
at that party, so yes.

(Door opens, shuts)

This is not good.
What am I gonna do?

(Gasps) Ooh...

Hey, Dave, it's Victor.
I need your help.

No, I'm not stuck on
a slack line again.

It was one time!

[♪♪]

Alright, does everyone
know what they want?

Because we got to be in and out.

Woman (on speaker): Welcome to
blimpo's, home of the delicious lemon pie.

Would you like to try
our delicious lemon pie?

- No, thank you.
- Wait a minute, Booker. Pie sounds good.

- Woman: One pie.
- Ooh, actually, make that two pies.

- Woman: Two pies.
- Actually make that four pies.

- Woman: Four pies.
- You don't want a pie?

- Fine. Five pies.
- Woman: I'm sorry, sir. We're out of pies.

Then why did you ask
if I wanted pie?

Woman: Because we're blimpo's,
home of the delicious lemon pie.

(Phone ringing)

(Gasps) It's my mom. Be quiet!

Woman: Who are
you telling to be quiet?

Don't make me come out there.

Oh, no. I'm sorry.
Um, I wasn't talking to you.

Just give me a second.

Shh! Alright,
everybody, be quiet.

- I'm not supposed to have anyone in the car with me.
- What?!

- Hey, mommy.
- You said mommy. What's wrong?

You in peril, son?
Sounds like you're in peril.

No, no, I'm fine.

You know,
I'm just on my way home,

by myself, like you said.

I also said no talking
and driving.

I pulled to the side of
the road to answer you,

- so you wouldn't worry.
- Woman: What do you want?

You're holding up my line.

Who was that? Who was that?
Wait a second.

- You at blimpo's?
- Yeah, uh, this is where I pulled into.

You know, I figured
I'd get some food,

and it'd be okay
since it's on the way.

Woman: Did you want anything
else besides the five pies?

Five pies?

Yeah, I was, um, I was getting
some for the family. (Laughs)

You know,
like a responsible kid.

That's nice.

That's really nice. Okay,
son. Well, get home safe.

- I will.
- Raven: Oh, wait! Uh, Booker? Hey.

Why don't you
pick me up a sweet tea,

a fry... Ooh!

Ooh, and a lemon pie.

Woman: For the last
time, we're out of pies!

Outta pies?
How are you outta pies?

Why are you even open, blimpo's?
That don't make no sense!

[♪♪]

Oh, thank goodness.

You're a lifesaver, Dave.

Wait. How'd you
get the doll so fast?

You know what?
Probably best I don't know.

Hey, pop-pop.

- Hey, Alice!
- (door shuts)

Where's Tasha?

Tasha's right here.

Thanks for watching her!

My pleasure.

Um, pop-pop?

- Can I ask you something?
- Sure, Alice.

Who's this?

W-w-w-what do you mean,
"who is this?" (laughs)

That's Tasha!

This is not Tasha.

Oh, what's that?
Mm-hmm.

Gracias.

Just as I suspected.

This girl speaks Spanish!

Spanish?

I left you with
"what's that, Tasha?"

And you're trying to give me
"que Paso, taina?"

Alice, there's something
I need to tell you.

(Gasps) Tasha!

It was an accident.

We were watching
the football game,

and I got excited,
and Tasha got sat on.

I tried to put her back
together, but nothing worked.

So you thought you could
fool me with a fake Tasha?

A mother knows her child.

But this doll, brand new!
You could get to know her!

Problem solved.

Solved?

Me and Tasha had plans.

We were going to go
to essence fest.

I'm sorry, Alice.

Wait.

What's that, Tasha?

Take your time, girl.

What's she sayin'?

What do you think she's sayin'?

She's saying,
"put my head back on."

Come on, man.

[♪♪]

Hey, do you think
there's something going on

between cuda
and Evelyn dark soul?

He was staring at her
all night.

It's probably because his eyes
are on the side of his head.

Hey, thanks for the ride.

You know, you could have
just told us your mom said

not to have anybody in the car.

Well, I was going to,

but you guys wouldn't stop
talking about my car.

You wouldn't stop
talking about your car.

The point is, everyone
was talking about my car.

And I didn't wanna let you down.

We're your friends.
We would have understood.

(Opens door)

- (Door creaks, slams)
- Uh, door!

Hey, I'll wait here
till you get inside.

Thanks. Good night, Booker.

Dropped everyone off
and didn't get in trouble.

- Hey. Finally, a vision actually worked out.
- (shifting gears)

(Police siren)

- (Shifts gears)
- Yep.

I spoke too soon.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Okay, Booker. Stay cool.

Remember what mom told you.

Alright. Keep your hand
on the steering wheel.

No sudden moves.
Only use "sir" and "ma'am."

(Knocking)

Hello, sir or ma'am.
What seems to be the problem?

What are you doing
in this neighborhood? You lost?

- No, sir.
- Where you coming from?

A basketball game.

I was just dropping
my friend off. I...

License and registration.
Slowly.

There you go.
Not my best photo.

I was going through this
weird Jay-Z phase.

- Booker, what happened?
- Whoa, this doesn't concern you.

- But he...
- I'm not gonna tell you again. Go.

Excuse me, officer.
Can I ask why you pulled me over?

As an officer of the law,
I have the right to stop

anybody who
looks suspicious.

Suspicious.

What's that I smell
on your breath?

Blimpo's.
They had no pie though.

Alright, funny man.
Get out of the car.

[♪♪]

- Glue gun.
- Glue gun.

(Dramatic music)

- Pliers.
- Pliers.

Be careful! You're gonna
Nick the elastic!

I can't get it.
My hands are shaking.

- It's too much pressure.
- Out of the way.

I've almost got it.
Quench me.

(Sipping)

Either this works,
or we lose her.

I've done all I can do.
It's up to her now.

- Did it work?
- Shh!

(Whispers):
Sorry.

What's that, Tasha?

You knew I went to the party
and not the dentist?

Aw,

she's back.
And she's mad.

I'm just glad she's okay.
Alice...

I am sorry I didn't
take better care of Tasha.

And I'm even more sorry
that I lied to you about it.

The important thing is that
we learn from our mistakes.

I made a mistake, too, today.

- What's that?
- Leaving her with you.

- (Both laugh)
- (phone rings)

Ivy?

What?

Stopped by the cops?

Alice, I want you
to stay right here.

I'm gonna be right outside.

[♪♪]

- So, this is your car, huh?
- Yes, sir.

Then why does it say it's
registered to a Victor Baxter?

That's my granddad.
He gave it to me.

Does he know he gave it to you?

Wait, y-you think
I stole this car?

Guys that look like
you usually do.

I'm telling you the truth.

I swear, if you
let me call my gran...

You can call him from down at
the station. Gimme your hand.

Hey, hey, hey!
What's going on?

- This doesn't concern you, sir.
- That's my grandson,

so it does concern me.

[♪♪]

- So he really is your grandson?
- Isn't that what he told you?

- Grandpa, he said I looked suspicious.
- I'm just doing my job, okay?

- I see a kid like him...
- A kid like what?

Oh, come on.
You know what I mean.

Unfortunately, I do.

Sir, this is not about race.

I didn't bring up race.
You did.

If you have a complaint,
there is a number you call.

Oh, I don't need the number.

I will talk to my friend
chief Thomas

when he comes to my restaurant
tomorrow morning for coffee!

- You know police chief Thomas?
- I do.

And I'll make sure that
he knows you, officer Riley.

(Sighs)

Uh, this is a... This is
just a misunderstanding.

Uh, have a good night.

(Opens car door)

[♪♪]

Booker!

- Are you okay?
- Ivy.

Can you take Alice upstairs
and help her get ready for bed?

Come on, Alice.

- Grandpa, I don't get it.
- (door shuts)

I didn't do anything wrong,

and that cop still treated me
like I'm a criminal

just because I'm black.
It's not fair.

You're right. It's not.

Grandpa, I followed the rules!

Okay, I did everything
you and mom told me,

and it still happened,
so what's the point?

The point?
The point is to keep you safe.

I don't feel safe!

You know,
sometimes neither do I.

Unfortunately,
the system is broken.

There's... There's still
a lot of bad cops out there,

and tonight. (Sad chuckle)

Tonight, you met one of them.

This is so messed up.

It is.

That's why we're gonna
hold them accountable.

That's how we change the system.

We need to speak up
and continue to speak up.

You okay?

I don't know.

I'm scared.

I'm angry.

But, you're alive.

[♪♪]

Hey, grandpa, can we keep
this little incident between us?

Keeping this from your mom is
gonna be harder than you think.

- Why?
- Raven: Booker!

- Because you already told her?
- Yeah.

[♪♪]

Mom, I can explain. Alright, they
shouldn't have been in the car...

I don't care. You're safe.

(Sighs)
I love you so much.

I love you, too, mom.
