Everyone, I have a very special announcement
to make about my husband.
Wyatt got accepted to showcase
this photography at the downtown LA art show.
- Hey! - Wow.
- That's awesome.
I didn't even know you were a photographer.
- That's because I'm really good at taking candids.
I photograph you guys all the time.
[soft music]
- [laughing]
- Well, dude, the downtown LA art show is super legit.
They always have the dopest artists.
It's a huge deal.
- That's true, but the only reason I got in
was because my bombshell boss of a wife
happens to have all the good connections.
- Now you stop that.
Just because I helped you get in doesn't mean
that you don't deserve to be there.
- Yeah, you're right.
I guess I'm just nervous because up until now,
I've only done these low brow freelance party picture gigs.
So I have no choice but to step up
and rise to the occasion, which is why I'm working
on a brand-new idea for this exhibit.
And I need a subject. Sherm, would you be down?
- Sure, is it because I'm the one
that inspires you the most in the group?
- I was thinking more because
you're the only one not working during the day tomorrow.
- Man, I'm an inspiration. Y'all gonna see.
- Great, now for the rest of you,
the show is Saturday night,
and I got tickets for everybody.
- Oh, can I get an extra ticket for Simone?
She's coming into town, and she's gonna spend the weekend.
- Absolutely.
- Things seem to be progressing nicely with you two.
- Yeah, you know, I never really saw myself
as a long distance relationship type of guy, but it's working.
- Hi, guys.
- Yo, yo, what's up beautiful Black people.
- Yo.
- Wyatt just got into an art show on Saturday night,
and we would love for you to be there.
- Oh, that's awesome, and we'd love to,
but Talia has a friend that's getting married that Saturday.
- Well, I think we might be back in time though.
Should we try and do both?
- Hell yeah, see, that's why you're the best.
I'm gonna go to the bar and buy you a drink.
- Uh, uh, uh, you're the best,
so I'm gonna go buy you a drink.
- Well, all right then.

- Oh. - Uh-oh.
- Oh, no. - What's wrong?
Anthony can't dance? - It's not that he can't dance.
It's that all he knows how to do is freak.
- That's how we danced in the '90s and the early 2000s,
and I think I'd do it pretty damn well.

- I'm just saying, feelings and friendship are a bad mix,
and you are flirting with disaster.
- Okay, well, he's my friend, and I'm a dancer.
What else was I supposed to say to him?
- Easy. Just say your cousin died.
People got a ton of cousins. It's an endless excuse.
- I'm not gonna say my cousin died.
It's gonna be fine. - I don't know.
Lights all low, eyes all locked, genitalia all lined up.

I've suffered from premature infatuation.

We need to introduce her to Nightmare Nicky.

And if Simone is okay with you having like a wackadoo sister,

Simone, I think you should pay.
