It’s the Grand Opening of J-Braids and Jamila needs all hands on-deck. Unfortunately, Dexter’s new job training to become a long-haul trucker conflicts, plus Jamila’s mother Jo is in the way, and mishaps unfold. Yaz decides to take a chance on herself and resurrects “It’s Ya Girl Yaz” on social media. She also entertains an old suitor.

Glamour girl and influencer Princess Charles - and not Yaz - gets the open spot on D-1’s “The Brunch Crew,” much to Yaz’s frustration.

It’s the annual family get-together. Yaz’s father Raymond is in town, causing his new girlfriend Cassandra and ex-wife Marilyn to face off. Shawn surprises Yaz. Dexter bonds with co-worker Brandi, while Jamila grapples with unexpected news. When a new love interest rejects Yaz’s advances, she risks backsliding romantically.

D-1 Media execs tell Porter that Princess Charles needs more development. Jamila imagines a new life with Dexter. Yaz discovers the secret causing Jamila’s odd behavior.

When Yaz discovers that the video she secretly shot of Princess Charles has been leaked, she fears getting fired and skips work to play hooky with Jamila.
