Mr. Callahan is being... nice to Cici and Funks? Ah, of course, he wants them to accompany him to a new southern-style restaurant in a rough part of DC. But when Funks makes a special request to the waiter... let's just say it's a battle of who has the better taste in food.

S1E4 - Soul Trained
Dang! The Complex is losing money and needs some new marketing to attract new tenants! And no new tenants means Mr. Callahan will have to sell the building to a greedy businesswoman and Cici and Funks will have to go find employment (and housing) elsewhere. Maybe a viral dance video would help! But wait, Funks can't dance!
Oh lawd... maybe Mr. Callahan's annoying son can help out.
