Pursuit of Happiness is the eighth episode of the second season of Peacock's modern-day reinterpretation, Bel-Air. It aired on April 13, 2023.
Will discovers the truth about his teammate's absence; Carlton spirals out of control.
Viv pins an apology to the Neeman Fellowship after they accuse her of tarnishing their reputation through her Instagram lives. Will and Ashley argue that she shouldn't have to apologize at all for stating what she believes in. Just as Uncle Phil walks into the room, Will plans his exit, but Phil seeks to address the tension between the two of them. Uncle Phil promised to support Will when he came back to the house, but if the support is starting to feel like control, he will ease up and allow Will to decide when he needs his help. Will expresses that this is all he wanted and shakes Uncle Phil's hand, much to Viv's relief. And just in time for Will's first game with Zenith Hype, which Uncle Phil and Geoffrey will be front and center for. Viv, unfortunately, has to attend a Neeman meeting. Carlton then enters the kitchen, and Will leaves abruptly. Carlton's nose then begins to bleed, but he insists that he's fine.
At Zenith Hype, Jackie thanks Will for getting her home the other night. She was drunk and doesn't remember what she even said. When Will forgives her, she offers to share more of her world with him. He then asks if Jackie knows why Brian isn't on the team anymore, as he can't get a straight answer from anyone. She does know, but tells him that it can wait until their date tomorrow. After Will leaves, Doc warns Jackie to be careful and not to say too much.
Phil is sorry that Frederick left so soon, but Geoffrey insists that it's the safest way. He then thanks Phil and Viv for making it happen. While his focus has been off lately, he's now back 100%.
Doc hands Will his jersey for his very first game. Hudson asks why he picked 14, to which Will replies that his mom had him on the 14th at 4:14 pm. It simply reminds him of the day he came into the world. With game time approaching, Doc encourages the team to go out there and earn Compton's respect.
Hilary is laying in bed, reading old messages between her and Jazz when Monica and Phanta enter her room. They begin cleaning up and announce their plans to get Hilary out of her room. While they understand that she's suffering from heartbreak, their Simply Spiked post with Lamarcus has gained them true visibility, and they need Hilary to build on the momentum.
Phil and Geoffrey watch from the stands as Will and Zenith Hype play against a local Compton team. As the game nears the end, Will goes for the winning shot, but is fouled aggressively, earning him a free throw shot, putting Zenith four points in the lead, at which point, Hudson alley oops the ball to Will for the final score of the game, which ends 86 to 80. Afterward, the team and Doc celebrate in the locker room.
