===========================================================================

Jason takes BBQ (Baby Boy Quartermaine) to the doctor for a checkup.  Every-
thing's okee-dokee with the babe so Jase heads home.  Jason and Renaldo are
in the limo with BBQ and the limo driver. Jason decides to check up on the
action at the docks so he and Renaldo get dropped off and the driver carts
BBQ back home.  Jason and Renaldo hook up with Jason's crew. Shots are fired;
they've run into an ambush!  They escape but Jason is shook up at how close
the baby came to getting plugged. He returns home and contacts Justus. They
decide to write a will for Jason. Jase names Bobbie as BBQ's guardian, and
also as trustee of the baby's loot, in case something happens to Jason.

In his new penthouse Justus answers a knock at the door. It's EdQ come
a'callin. Justus doesn't want to admit him but EdQ says he needs to talk about
what happened. He admitted that it was wrong to try and heist BBQ and
apologizes to Justus. Says he wants big J back at ELQ but Justus doesn't want
to return.  Edward starts waxing nostalgic about Mary-Mae, Bradley, etc. and
what happened in the past. In spite of EdQ's persuasion Justus opts to not go
back to ELQ. He tries to make Edward understand that the two of them are too
far apart in every way to be the close family members EdQ wants.  Edward
eventually gets the message and leaves...but not before he warned Justus that
Jason would turn him into a criminal.

In her apartment, Filly fidgets as the waits for Jimmy-as-Mac. Smells like
"stood up" to her. Meanwhile, back at the cabin, Jimmy intercepts Mac just as
he's heading out the door. He whacks him and ties him back up to the chair.
Mac demands to know what Tess and Jimmy have in store for him.  Mac gets
Jimmy to talk about the grand plan Tess has made; turns out Jimmy doesn't
really know what's going on. Jimmy brags, though, that he has a safe deposit
box full of cash, a fake passport, and deed to a house in Corsica. He offers
it all to Mac on the condition that Mac quit PC and let Jimmy take his place.
Mac tells him he's a chump and that Tess is setting him up. Instead of cash
and a deed, the only thing Jimmy will be holding after the job is finished is
his ... well, you know. Then Jimmy starts to taunt Mac about how well he's
been accepted in PC in Mac's place...even with Felicia, especially with
Felicia! Mac gets visibly agitated when Jimmy says he has to leave because he
and Filly have a date. Jimmy injects Mac with a drug before he leaves and Mac
hallucinates that Felicia visits him and tells him she prefers the company of
Jimmy-as-Mac. Jimmy goes back to Port Chuck and meets with Filly. They end up
at a flower shop where he gathers a bouquet and presents it to her. He gets
down on one knee and proposes marriage!  Felicia, in tears, runs from the
flower shop.
