PARIS: The great thing about having bakers for parents
is that the house always smells good,
and the goodies taste even better.
The downside is,
if you don't get to it fast, you just ain't get any.
If it's not my bonehead brother doing the tart snatching,
then it's "Sticky Fingers" Derek helping himself to the goods.
Even my girls can't resist the lure of the fruit tart.
I'm telling you,
it's "The Quick and Hungry" around here, y'all.
Lucky for me, your girl has a secret stash spot...
behind the week-old mac and cheese,
just left of the toasted ravioli,
and right of the PB&J with green fuzz growing on it,
I have my treats cleverly hidden.
Don't nobody dare check behind here.
Uh-oh.
Somebody dared. (laughs nervously)
Booker?
Hey, play cousin!
Mm! This is real good.
This is real good. You know what?
You need to find a new hiding spot.
(laughing) For real, for real.
Hey, can you hand me some of that milk from in there?

Well, it's good to see that moving to San Francisco
didn't ruin your appetite.
Mm-hmm, or your food etiquette.
I see you're still greedy old Booker.
Well, we have missed you, Booker.
And we're just so excited that you decided to spend
some of your Chicago summer with us.
So am I. You know, it was either this or fly to Prague with my dad and sister
for a meteorologist convention.
So, thanks for saving me from that tropical depression.
Well, your daddy saved me from drowning
in a ball pit at Charlie's pizza parlor when we were six.
So for that, you're always welcome.
You have an open-door policy.
Just not an open refrigerator.
DEB: Mm-hmm. Or pantry or freezer.
So put a lock on them lips while we're gone.
-Where are y'all headed? -Sammy's Hardware.
Thinking about painting the living room.
-Give it a fresh look. -ALL: It's about time!
(overlapping chattering)
Yeah, I'll be at Saturdays.
-We gonna head to the lab. -Yeah.
To take care of some lab stuff.
(indistinct chatter)
Hey, uh, lab stuff makes me hungry.
Just take the plate.
-You're a good man. -Hmm.
I'm invoicing his father for our grocery bill.
Mm-hmm. I am already tracking.
How many cookies was that?
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh, what?
"Dilemma" Emma, ten o'clock.
She chatted me up for 30 minutes last week
talking about some eye boogers and nose hairs.
Okay. I had to give her a hand in the bathroom once
because she almost fell in.
You know, maybe if we freeze, she won't notice us.
Mm-hmm, okay.
(all exhale deeply)
That was a close one.
-Hey, girls. -ALL: Ah!
-What y'all doing? -Hiding.
I mean, chillin'.
"Chillin'." Derived from the word "chilling."
Colloquial slang for "spending time relaxing."
Also referenced as "chillaxin'."
ALL: Right.
May I ask you all a question?
-Must you? -Actually, it's two questions.
One, why is the island of Greenland called Greenland
if 80% of it is covered in ice?
And two, how do I ask a boy I like for a couples skate?
Question number one... I have no idea.
I didn't even know it was an island.
But question number two, now your girl got some answers.
So who's the boy you're peeping?
Nelson.
Nelson?
Who sniffs his armpits and belches the alphabet?
Yup. That's my boo right there.
I just like him a lot. I mean a lot-lot.
And I'm afraid if I ask him to skate, he'll say no.
Emma, we got you.
Yes. Say less, our awkward, clumsy, needy little friend.
Your three skate aunties are on the case.
Mm-hmm. That's right. Your We-B-Aunties
are going to show you how to bag a couples skate with Nelson.
-You are? -Mm-hmm.
Thank you! Thank you so much!
So, what's the first thing you need me to do?
You think she would know, right?

Hold up. Wait a minute, y'all.
I think I just witnessed the birth of a supergroup.
You know what? I think you just did.
(laughs)
And it took less than nine months.
Birth?
Come on, y'all. It was a metaphor.
-I'm gonna fall back. -All right.
But for real, though, I think we go something special here.
And I already got the perfect name for it.
Hold up. Wait. I got it.
BOTH: LDB! London, Derek, and Booker!
I was gonna call it Three Dudes in a Garage,
but, hey, that works too.
We can go with that. We can go with that.
Let's just run it back again.
So, Emma, you are so lucky that your skate aunties
are always prepared for an impromptu glow-up.
By the time we're done with you,
you won't even have to ask Nelson for a couples skate.
He'll be asking you.
No, he'll be begging you, on his little dusty hands and knees.
Oh, my gosh! I'm so excited! I can't wait, aunties!
Glow me up, girls. Glow me up.
Wait, this isn't gonna hurt, is it?
Define "hurt."
Uh-uh, Paris, we don't want that.
Yeah, kid. Okay, it's gonna hurt.
I mean, no pain, no gain, girl, all right, so what we doing?
'Cause aunties have some other auntie stuff we could be doing.
This ain't a game.
I can take it.
All right. Well, let it be took.
(camera shutters clicking)
ARI: (sighing) Oh!
Look at little mini-us!
So, Emma, how do you feel?
I feel like a celestial being that just descended to Earth
to embark upon a journey of enlightenment.
Please don't ask her any more questions.
-(soulful music playing) -Oh.
That sounds like couples skate music to me.
Oh, and there goes Nelson over there.
So are you ready to go ask him for that couples skate?
Am I ready?
Can a flea jump 350 times the length of its own body?
Excuse me, aunties.
The DJ's playing me and Nelson's song.
Oh! Look at our little Emma go!
I feel like it was just yesterday we were teaching her not to bite her nails
or snort when she laughs.
That was an hour ago, Paris.
Wait, where is she going?
You know, maybe she'll turn around.
Or maybe she needs a bit more help than we thought she did.
Those wings were on loan, Emma.
Don't have me come looking for you.
(indistinct chatter)
Uh, Mom? Dad? Are y'all okay?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, son.
We're just trying to decide on what paint color
to go with for these walls.
Now, I prefer the orange salmon.
but your dad is really feeling that prison gray.
It's not prison gray. It's beige gray.
There's a difference.
Gray bars.
I don't know if you guys have heard, but Duchess is allowing LDB to perform
on a couples skate.
-Nice! -Oh!
LDB is about to be official.
-Yes, sir. -(laughs)
That's great, you guys.
Now remember, when you guys get on that stage,
you keep y'all's clothes on.
No Petey Pablo shirt-swinging and whatnot, okay?
Yeah. None of that Bruno Mars hip action.
Need I go into detail?
Nope, that's cool. We'll keep it PG. Okay.
-All right. -Good. I'm just so happy
that you boys are clicking.
So am I. It's weird. I feel like D-Rok and I
have been singing together our entire lives.
Yeah, it's like our voices were meant to be together.
-It's kismet. -BOOKER: Yeah.
I don't know what kismet means, but I'm with it.
And ain't nobody gonna be trippin' on who sings what.
You know? Unlike all them other groups.
Yeah.
-No egos. -Yes.
Egos are for suckers.
LDB is ego-free.
-That is good to hear. -Yeah.
So who's singing lead?
BOTH: I am.
So about this salmon. Is it orange salmon?
-DEB: Yes. -CAL: I mean, that's fine.
EMMA: Hey, We-B-Aunties.
Hey, Emma. What happened to you last week?
Yeah. The goal was for you to skate up to Nelson, girl,
not past him.
Yeah, and where are my wings at?
Hope you're having them dry-cleaned.
I don't know what happened.
The closer I got to him, the further he seemed.
It was like I was in a tunnel.
And then my face got hot, and my tummy started twisting.
I just had to get out of there.
BOTH: Butterflies.
Or bubble gut. Yes. I think we've all been there.
Don't worry, Emma.
Minor setback, but we can fix it.
-Fix it how? -Easy.
We just got to go big.
In order to attract Nelson, we're gonna need a grand gesture.
You know, I was thinking a gigantic banner and a biplane! Yeah!
Girl, we ain't getting no banner and no biplane.
What you need is you Auntie Simone's lavender and lemon pheromone spray,
guaranteed to bring a boy to his very knees.
Lavender makes my head swell up.
Oh, well, this may not be the spray for you. All right.
Emma, listen to your Auntie Ari here, and I'll tell you the best way
to snag a couples skate with Nelson.
Mmm.
Bribery.
Boys love a good blueberry slushee, especially when it's free.
BOTH: True.
Now, you're gonna roll over there real smooth like,
offer him one, then ask about that couples skate.
Okay, but what if he says no?
Oh, then give him a little slushee shampoo.
You know?
Okay, now go over there and get your man.
I got this.
-Yes. -Hear that, ladies.
She's got this.
-(body thudding, splashing) -BOY: Hey, watch it!
She ain't got this.
I'm sorry, We-B-Aunties. I'm just hopeless.
Oh, no. Don't say that. Look, you're awesome, Emma.
And we should have told you that from jump.
Instead, we were doing too much.
We were trying to focus on making you a mini-us,
when we should have been focused on what makes you special.
And what makes you special is you being you.
We're sorry.
That's okay, We-B-Aunties. You tried your best.
I'm just gonna go home and cry to my turtle, Marvin.
He smells a little funny
and hasn't come out of his shell in, like, a year,
but he's a real good listener.
Bye, girls.
Aw.
Guys, we can't let little Emma go out like that.
We have to get her that couples skate with Nelson.
And break the news to her about that turtle.
I think Marvin got his wings, y'all.
Mmm.

Yeah, and she's curious and smart.
Uh-huh, and you like smart girls, right, Nelson?
Right? Huh?
Speak up. Hmm?
-I can't hear you. What? -Yeah.
So, what's the deal, Nell?
You gonna couples skate with our friend or not?
-What's going on? -Oh, nothing.
We're just talking with our boy Nelson.
-(Ari laughs) -But you don't have to ask him
about our couples skate.
What? Why not?
Because I took you guys' advice to be myself,
and I asked him to a couples skate.
You did? Girl, what'd he say?
I said yes.
But now, no. No way.
Your aunties are mean.
Uh...
but...
Hey, Emma Em.
How you doing, girl? You know your eye, it's just...
It's twitching just a little bit. Just a...
You three ruined my life!
I'm never talking to you again.
Marvin told me not to trust you.
Aw.
She's upset.
So who wants a snow cone?
Hmm.
Still no call on the color, huh?
Nope. They've been like this for hours, just staring at the wall.
Like they're on a self-imposed time-out.
So, Book, what's up with your little scarf?
You see, I'm just trying to keep my pipes warm
for my big debut.
I don't know if y'all heard yet,
but I am headlining the couples skate at Saturdays.
Oh, with Derek, right?
Yeah. He'll be there, too.
Well, we just ruined a couples skate situation for somebody, so...
One of y'all friends?
Oh, no, just some little girl we know.
She admires us.
Worships the ground we walk on.
And innocently came to us looking for help,
and we crushed her little soul.
But, hey, that's life.
You know, I don't know, guys.
Crushing the soul of a little kid is kind of bad.
Paris, remember how we felt when London told us
there's no farm where hamsters go to retire?
I do. I mailed all those letters to Mr. Snuggles.
Now it makes sense why he never responded.
That's bad.
Almost as bad as when my big brother told me
that there's no such thing as the tooth fairy.
Wait, what?
There isn't?
Oh, man, the devil is a lie!
Well, guys, we need to make this right.
We have to get Emma that couples skate with Nelson
by any means necessary.
Okay, well, since y'all want to be loud over there
talking about some nonsense, why don't you come help us out.
-So, what's up? -Your mother and I
have been stuck on picking a new color for this wall
-for the last three weeks. -BOTH: We know.
Okay, didn't nobody ask for no four-part harmony.
What we need is help deciding on a color for these walls.
So, right now it's Stuart Gold,
but I don't know, I'm kind of thinking of going with that Savannah Clay.
Okay, so your mama likes the Savannah Clay,
but I'm more of a Van Deusen Blue guy.
It really makes the accent pillows pop, and I just like saying "Van Deusen."
It makes me sound bilingual.
I thought you liked the terra cotta?
Terra cotta? I don't gotta.
