for us to be coming all the way to Brooklyn for brunch.

Paul has been super busy recently,

and I haven't really been around him a lot,

so when he suggested that we go

on a secret mystery brunch date, I'm all in.

- Here's the surprise!

(drums rolling)

Black Ink Brooklyn!

(cymbals clashing) (horns blowing triumphantly)

(song crashing) Isn't it great?

- So, who promises their wife brunch

and then takes them and their infant

to a dirty construction site?

- You're not excited?

- No, I'm not, Paul.

- It's nice, come on, man, let me walk you through.

So, I have quite told Quani yet

about the fact that me and Ceaser partnered on another shop.

I know she's gonna be a little bit upset with me

because I'm gonna be working more,

but once she sees how dope this opportunity is,

and how awesome this is,

she's gonna be totally down.

You have to imagine when it's done.

Cool lighting, artwork, tattoo stations are going here,

Ted's handling all that,

and you have to check out the awesome backyard.

- Honestly, right now, I'm a little bit confused about

what's going on here.

All I know is there better be a restaurant in the backyard

with my french toast and my mimosas

or we're gonna have a (beep) problem.

- Come on, you gotta admit, it is a nice space.

- It's all right, Paul.

But I still don't know why you brought me here.

- Actually, I got some great news.

Ceaser made me a partner in this shop too, like...

- So you're making whole plans for opening up another spot

and you don't tell me (beep).

You keep starting stuff without talking to me first.

- I mean, I'm trying to get us set up for our future.

You know, like us, the babies.

- Hold on now.

Puma's already running two shops,

Art to Ink and 113th.

How is he going to find the time to run a third one?

I don't know, Paul, we never see you as it is.

- Quani, the ball has been rolling lately, you know,

the shops have been flowing,

Art to Ink, Black Ink,

this is like everything we wanted.

Everything is looking up

for us for once. - Everything is looking okay,

but that doesn't change any facts, Paul.

Don't get me wrong,

I love that he's gonna be making more money,

but there's a such thing as work-life balance,

and he needs to figure it out.

I don't know why you're trying to convince me

to do what you're going to do anyway.

You're gonna do it anyway!

Like you always do.

- This is totally not going the way I expected.

Quani has her mind set,

and once her mind is set on something,

this woman will not let it go.

This is bad news bears.

- Now, Paul, I was promised brunch,

so I'm gonna turn around and I'm going to walk away.

- Are you leaving right now?

- Deuces.

- Quani!

Quani!
