"Are we on for later?" "Yeah." "What's all this "us" and "we"" "stuff about?" "Oh, nothing." "Reggie and I are strictly friends." "Well, whatever you need, whenever you need it, I'm here." "I'm coming for you, keisha." "I can't let you walk out of here without saying something." "Say something about what?" "What are you talking about?" "Your sex tape." "How do you know about that?" "Would you please join me for dinner tonight?" "You're going out with him?" "What about Charles?" "I thought you were all fired up over him." "Can't she have two fires going?" "I've never dated two guys at the same time before." "Kind of exciting." "Are you gonna finish those fries?" "Do I ever?" "And don't you always finish them for me?" "Hey, that's what friends are for." "Wrong." "Bringing in those models tonight was genius." "I had to turn a ton of guys away because we were at capacity." "Oh." "Oh." "How are you gonna top yourself next week?" "I think I'm gonna do something for the ladies." "Pro ballers." "Ooh, okay." "My friend Shelly works for the dunks, so" " God, it's cold in here." "Thanks." "So, what's life like now that you don't have your ex living with you?" "Uh, it's a little weird being in the house all by myself." "Even a little lonely." "You can always call me." "I mean, I live alone too." "I know what the feeling's like." "You are so sweet." "Come here." "Mmm." "Wow, you look amazing." "Well, thank you." "Um, I actually mean her." "Oh, God, I feel stupid." "Come on, April." "You know you look pretty too." "Hey!" "Sorry it took me so long." "Oh, no worries." "Natasha, April." "April promotes for me." "Oh." "Hi, April." "So nice to meet you." "He talks about you all the time." "He does?" "He's so sweet..." "As you can clearly see." "Well, I think I'm gonna break out." "So soon?" "Make sure you text so I know you made it okay." "You know the drill." "It was a pleasure to meet you." "Did you finish scanning those invoices?" "Finish?" "Have you noticed how busy it's gotten around here?" "Oh, I've noticed." "And I am not mad." "That's why I'm biting the bullet and hiring more help." "Meanwhile, if Paula bunyan over there would admit to her true shoe size, I could abandon my quest for magical, expanding size eights." "Try these, hon." "They're not cut so European." "Previous retail experience, an eye for fashion, communication skills, problem solver." "It looks good, except when does the job start?" "I was gonna put "immediately" but it sounded too desperate." "What's Terrence doing here?" "Hi, is keisha around?" "I'm sorry, keisha's not here." "Is there anything I can help you with?" "I ran into her the other night, and she was talking all this noise about your cashmere sweaters." "What you got?" "They're over there." "Let's see if anything catches your eye." "Mmm, besides you?" "If I shake one more hand, my arm might fall off." "But that's why you're going to win, babe." "Because you're putting in the work, letting the voters know that you're the man we need on the city council." "I know you're the man that I need, at least on my private council." "I love it when you talk "victory" to me." "Really?" "Yes." "Hey, Shelly." "Hey." "James." "How you doing?" "Mwah!" "I was starting to think that your campaign didn't need my contribution." "Oh, no, we need that money." "I've just been so busy kissing babies and cajoling constituents." "You understand." "I don't know how you politicians do it." "Come back to my office." "I'll get you that check." "I'm gonna stay out here and browse a little bit." "Like it or not, you're always gonna have a fly first lady." "I already do." "What's up, Shelly?" "Small world." "How you been, lil' mama?" "Forget the small talk, Terrence." "Did you find the tape?" "What happened to being polite?" "I still can't believe you showed it to someone." "That was something we did in private." "Look, I only showed a couple of my homeboys." "I didn't think one of them was gonna end up stealing it." "How could you be so stupid?" "Uh-oh, don't get too riled up." "You don't want your cornball boyfriend to hear us and wonder what we talking about." "Anyway, relax." "I got it back." "You did?" "Oh, thank God." "Thank God." "I could have lost everything." "Please tell me you destroyed it." "Oh, you've changed." "Look at you, all brand-new and in love." "That's funny." "It's called growing up." "You should try it some day." "Did you destroy the damn tape?" "Come on now." "Hey, baby." "We got to get across town in 45 minutes." "Hey, how you doing?" "James Blackwell." "Yeah, I saw you on TV." "Good luck in the primary." "I mean, I would vote for you if I could." "What, are you a republican?" "Close." "A felon." "Well, how do you know Shelly?" "Oh, well, uh, I'll let you two discuss that." "I'm out." "Hey, yo, Raquel, you gonna finish showing me those sweaters?" "We used to date back when I was into bad boys." "I don't miss that at all." "What's up with the family discount?" "Thanks for dinner." "If I hadn't seen you pay, I would have never believed it." "The urban legend is true." "Keisha Greene did pick up a check, but it was a one-time- only thing, just like your loan to me." "Thanks again for that." "I'm just glad my case in D.C." "Finally wrapped up." "I really missed you." "Mmm." "Well, isn't this familiar?" "What?" "You watching me walk across the room as if I'm your one-woman show." "I'm about to pop some popcorn up in this mug and be your one-man groupie." "Is this familiar, too?" "A little too familiar." "So go back to being goofy, joke-telling Sean, because sexy, trying-to-get-it Sean is moving too fast." "You are never gonna forgive me, are you?" "If I hadn't forgiven you, we wouldn't even be standing here." "Trust." "Then why you holding back?" "What's wrong with us just hanging?" "If anything else is gonna happen, it's gonna have to grow." "Yeah, well, I was hoping for more of an eruption." "Sean." "But I can work with "grow."" "Anyway, you're the one that's missin' out on all of this." "Sure." "Good night, Sean." "Good night, keisha." "I really enjoyed "hanging" with you." "Ah, I learned to play on a 1964 Gibson sunburst." "Man, I loved that guitar." "After school, I would practice till sunset." "It's still my favorite time of day." "I don't know, sunrises have always been more special to me." "Something about a start of the new day." "So, um, when are you gonna play again for me?" "Actually, my band's playing next weekend in a backyard near you." "Uh, it's just me and my buddies fooling around, but what we lack in talent, we--we make up for in fun." "You?" "Fun?" "Really?" "Hey, whoa, whoa, no peeking." "Charles, we look crazy like this." "You look crazy." "I look normal." "Okay." "Surprise." "I hope you like Indian food." "Hey, you!" "And you." "And me." "We're all here." "That is really coincidental." "What a trip." "What's up, Raquel?" "You tell me." "How are you?" "You look good." "Yeah." "We're just--just gonna have a little dinner." "Mm-hmm." "Are--are--are you gonna have dinner too?" "Very cool." "You like Indian?" "Are we eating at this restaurant?" "Is--is it hot in here?" "Oh, we're outside, aren't we?" "Whew!" "I'll check you later." "Okay." "Who was that?" "And... why does he make you so nervous?" "You guys used to date or something?" "Something." "We're actually currently dating." "Oh." "Okay." "Uh, well, I hope you like tikka masala, 'cause they got the best in town." "That's it?" "You're cool?" "Yeah." "I've dated several women at a time before, so I understand." "I would have been upset if someone took my coffee choices away from me before I found the perfect cup." "But that's-- it's not where I'm at anymore." "So it really doesn't bother you?" "Of course, I might want you to choose me at the end, but you got to get there." "I appreciate that." "Good." "Now let's eat." "Okay." "Come on." "See, some women just can't handle two men." "It's not in their blood." "They get double stupid, just like you did." "Why were you acting so guilty?" "You weren't doing anything wrong." "That's what's weird." "I felt like I was doing something wrong because neither one of them knew about each other." "But Charles was cool with it." "And you're going out with Nate tomorrow night, so maybe you'll be two for two." "Mmm, just don't act blonde again, okay?" "No offense, April." "None taken." "You see my roots." "All right." "I better get out there and act like I own the place." "I thought that's what you were doing by making Omar do all the work." "Right." "Whoa." "We had his name spelled wrong." "Put the "u" after the "t."" "Oh." "Mm-mmm." "He's only making rookie money." "Let that percolate for another season." "I don't know, it might be smart to get in on the ground floor." "I don't need all that." "I want to know what team he plays for." "The dunks, dummy." "Give it back." "I actually have business to conduct on the business iPad..." "After I check my email." "Shelly, I didn't know it was part of your job to take the players shopping." "It's not." "But I'm the communications director, and I did not like the message they were sending wearing lime green and lavender suits." "So I had to step in." "Got you." "Check this out." "Eww." "Omar, I'm aware that all things classy elude you, but porn?" "At work?" "Really?" "Just look." "Recognize anyone?" "Terrence?" "Shelly?" "Are you sure that's Malcolm's little brother?" "My friend in Miami sent me the link." "I guess her sex tape's gone viral." "What are you guys watching?" "Shelly, I think you need to see this." "What?" "Looks like you're trending, babe." ""Hello, ladies and gentlemen of the press." "As you know, I'm James Blackwell, and I'm running for city council in district 13." "Today, I want to talk about how I'd get the municipal budget under control if elected." "Hello, ladies and gentlemen of the press." "As you know, I'm James Blackwell."" "Babe, I'm glad I caught you." "Me too." "I need a kiss for luck." "I got to go now." "No, James, hold on." "I have something to tell you." "Now?" "I go to go up." "Can't it wait until after the press conference?" "I wish it was something I didn't have to say at all, but, no, it can't wait." "I, um... you--you--you what, babe?" "They're waving me on stage." "Is there something wrong?" "I promise it'll make more sense once I explain it, but, um..." "I did a sex tape, and it's all over the Internet, and they're gonna ask you about it." "One second." "Oh!" "You're okay." "Thank goodness." "Man." "What's going on?" "I was worried." "You didn't text me, I couldn't get you on the phone, I left messages." "I'm so sorry." "My friend had a really hard day and she needed a place to crash, and I forgot." "No problem." "I'm just glad to know you're safe and everything's okay." "Well, good night." "What was that?" "Good night." "Hey, can I talk to you for a minute?" "Sure." "But I have to keep folding." "We're so busy, it seems like it's all I do." "I woke up freezing last night." "It turns out I folded my sheets in my sleep." "I'd help you, but I can't because my hands are full." "Here." "What's this?" "It's not payday." "Are you replacing me, with all the work I do around here?" "I come in early, I stay late, I even clean up after the clean-up crew." "And-- and that's why you deserve this raise." "20%." "Oh!" "Thank you so much." "I love you more than I ever loved power." "Wait, why are we whispering?" "Nobody else works here." "I got a raise." "No, no, no, no." "You go do what you do." "Manage cash flow, bottom line the profit margin." "Just keep making us rich." "How may I..." "Help you?" "Are you Raquel Lancaster?" "Yes, I am." "Hi, I'm Morgan Thomas." "I'm applying for the sales assistant position." "Here's my resume." "Any chance you have 15 minutes right now?" "Well, let me look this over and let's see if we can schedule something." "Like maybe some manners." "I'm sorry." "I'm just so nervous." "I really want this job." "Whew." "Good thing I wore black, huh?" "Mom?" "Oh, can I have these?" "I see you're no stranger to retail or the clothing business." "Nicole and I just relocated to buckhead for the schools, but the commute to my job is taking up too much of my time and gas money." "Mom?" "Okay, baby." "You're not going to be late." "She's got her first appointment with the gynecologist." "I cannot believe you." "You are so embarrassing." "What's so embarrassing about being a woman?" "You want embarrassing?" "How about your water breaking in the middle of target?" "I'll be in the car." "Well, listen, I'll probably start interviewing before the weekend, so look out for my call." "Mom, can I please, please have these jeans?" "Nicole, show you have a little tact and at least wait for my employee discount." "Cute." "But wouldn't she be better suited for bath  body works?" "And do we all have to smell like bahama fizz and Caribbean escape now?" "Rude." "I could really get used to this." "I'm glad seeing me out the other night didn't bother you." "I don't sweat competition." "I expect it." "Plus, he ain't here right now." "I am." "I just hate I have to leave." "Oh, already?" "We open at 7:00." "And "7:00" means suited-up and ready to go, not stumbling in, looking for my morning coffee." "But I do see something I'd like to take with me, though." "What?" "This here." "Wow." "Come see me to the door." "Girl, don't be playing with me." "I've got to go." "Okay." "I'll walk you to the elevator." "Mmm." "This is a long way from your elevator." "I know." "You have to go." "Bye." "Whoa, slow down, shorty." "First I have to see you home." "I'll be back." "You're crazy." "Maybe so, but I was raised a gentleman." "Come on." "Morning." "Want coffee?" "Can't." "I gotta go defend my other title." "Aren't we feeling ourselves." "Hey, it's easy when you wake up next to the finest girl in Atlanta." "Oh." "Snoring like a lumberjack." "I do not snore." "Thank you for the hospitality, though." "I'll call you on my break." "Mm-hmm." "Oh, yeah." "That is cute." "Okay, so finish telling us." "He spent the night?" "I definitely didn't plan it that way, but once we started kissing, mmm, he just knew what he was doing to me." "What can I say?" "I got lost in the moment." "So did your panties and bra, sounds like." "I think we've all been there." "Some guys just have a knack at getting it quicker than others." "So there you go." "There are men out there that don't need everything spelled out." "You know, ones who can catch hints and read signs." "Can you introduce him to Reggie?" "Hold it right there!" "Hey!" "Guys wait up." "What is going on over here?" "This one just stuffed a pair of jeans in her purse." "He's lying." "Get off of me." "Omar has no reason to lie." "Do you have the jeans?" "Okay." "Then I guess it's time for me to call the police." "Mmm." "Well, at least she has good taste." "Do you think I don't remember you?" "Should I call the police now?" "No." "I'll call her mother." "She's here." "I-I don't know what to say." "Sit up." "Have you lost your mind?" "I've raised her better than this." "I am so sorry to put you through this trouble." "What were you thinking?" "I did not move us up here to put you in this good school for you to start tripping." "Omar caught her trying to stuff these in her purse." "Mama, I'm sorry." "It's just that everybody else-- "everybody else"?" "If everybody else were to jump off a cliff, does that mean you--you know what?" "Don't even answer that." "No phone, TV, or computer, and I'm even considering the amount of oxygen you can have." "Do you hear me?" "Yes, ma'am." "I did not move us up here to buckhead for you to go buck wild." "I'm trying to give you a better opportunity, and you trying to get a police record?" "The job." "I'm sorry." "Go ahead." "Hello?" "I know that's what the manual says, but you're better off just voiding the transaction." "Mm-hmm." "Now re-enter the purchase price." "You good?" "Great." "I'll be back by 3:00." "New employee?" "My boss." "Panics every time I'm not there to do his job and mine." "I really want to thank you for calling me instead of the police." "I am so disappointed in you." "Come on, winona." "Who?" "Google it when you're off punishment." "Let's go." "My father fired me, and my boyfriend won't return my calls." "How did it get on the Internet, Terrence?" "Tell me that." "The dude I beat down at the concert must've made a copy." "Releasing it probably was his payback." "What difference does it make?" "My lawyer says there's nothing we can do about it." "I can't believe this is happening to me." "Well, I got a lawyer too, and that's what I'm trying to tell you." "There's a way that we can capitalize on this." "Capitalize how?" "I'm all ears." "How did Kim kardashian and those other celebrities get theirs?" "Don't say anything else dumb, because I know you're about to." "My man will launch you a website and put out a calendar faster than you can say, "show me the money," just from the buzz from our video." "You can be a brand." "Not interested." "I'm not trying to have more images of myself out there." "What the hell, Terrence?" "You'd never have to go to your daddy for another dime." "You know I know what it's like to have to depend on your family for money." "It ain't cool." "You better try to turn these lemons into lemonade." "Go to hell." "Hey, babe, what's up?" "They should have fixed your car right the first time, but I let them know to keep bay one open because I didn't want my girlfriend to have to wait." "Yeah." "Yeah, um, it's making a new noise, like a buzzing sound." "Might be electrical." "We'll check it out." "But you almost missed me." "I got to go get some parts from the warehouse." "Okay." ""Girlfriend"?" "Excuse me?" "You just--you just called me your girlfriend, and that sounds like, you know, exclusive territory, and I just don't want to mislead you." "But that's not what was going through my mind when I said it, but now that I think about it, what's wrong with that?" "Well, it's just not exactly what I'm ready for." "I mean, even though we just, you know..." "I just want to be clear." "You know what?" "We're gonna have to continue this another time." "I got to go pick up some parts." "Are you angry?" "I'll talk to you later." "This is some bull." "I feel like Raquel or April." "What are you over there mumbling?" "Don't mind me, I'm just layin' on your bed and hangin' out." "You can wait in the living room if you want." "Hell no." "I know how long you take." "I'm here to rush you so we don't miss our reservation." "It's pizza, Sean." "Whatever." "You're taking too long." "Just grab a jacket and come on." "Boy, will you sit down and let me do what I do, please?" "Look, here, wear this." "Uh-uh." "What?" "You still have this dress?" "You know I wasn't gonna get rid of that." "As much fun as we had that day I wore it." "Damn, that takes me back." "Do you remember that day?" "Mm-hmm." "How did we both show up dressed to the nines to a backyard barbecue?" "We looked like idiots." "That's on you." "I don't know how you read that invitation wrong." "But we turned that party out." "Ha ha!" "Ooh, we were doing the limbo in our eveningwear." "We had a good ol' time, didn't we?" "We always did." "Oh." "Why are you still standing there?" "You're gonna make us late for our reservation." "So, I was hoping we could talk about the other night." "Uh..." "I was so out of line." "Well, shutting the door in my face was a little rough." "I had no right to kiss you." "I mean, you're with someone now and" " Natasha?" "I'm not with her." "Huh?" "Is that what you wanted to talk about?" "No." "Uh, Reggie..." "I like you." "As more than just a friend." "Really?" "Obviously." "You know, I could have stopped at the store and bought some cookies." "I don't think my son or his class would have minded." "Do you hear yourself?" "Bringing store-bought cookies to a bake sale?" "How tacky is that?" "Homemade is the only way to go." "I know you remember that birthday cake you made for me our first year together." "German chocolate." "With a, uh-uh-uh, gangster lean." "But you ate it though, didn't you?" "Did I have a choice?" "It was good, though." "All right, then." "Mm-hmm." "A tad dry, however." "Okay." "Forget you." "Still, my best birthday ever." "Aw." "You're cruising down memory Lane and refuse to pull over, huh?" "I don't know why you won't join me." "It's not a bad place." "Ah." "Something tells me you're not prepared for this." "Well, don't you have any condoms?" "No." "Well, does Raquel have any?" "I'm not about to go digging through Raquel's things, looking for a condom." "You're right, you're right." "I'll be extra careful." "And I would have to be extra, extra dumb to agree to that one." "Keisha, look, we're not exactly strangers." "Another reason why it's not going down." "I don't know what you've been doing and who you've been doing it with for the past six years." "So, no glove, no love." "You're serious?" "As a heart attack." "Keisha, come on." "It's me, your boy." "Let me just put the tip-- ooh, uh-uh-uh." "You sound absolutely ridiculous." "Call me tomorrow." "We need to talk." "I agree." "Sorry I got ticked off the other day." "Since then, I've gained some perspective." "I was only mad at you for seeing something I should've seen right out the gate." "And what was this now?" "You knew from day one that there was no future here." "I mean, we're both stepping a little too far out of our comfort zones, right?" "I wouldn't go that far." "Maybe not in so many words, but, "I'm not ready to be exclusive," sounds way nicer than, "this will never work."" "That's not what I'm saying at-- it's cool." "We both wanted adventure, something exotic, but you need to keep your options open." "You need to be realistic." "You would never be with a dude like me if it really came down to it." "Nate, that's not fair." "I never said that." "You didn't have to." "Believe me, Raquel." "It's all good." "But you know what?" "I'll never forget you." "And who knows?" "Maybe I'll even see you around the hood sometime." "Are you sure you're gonna be okay?" "You want me to stay?" "I think enough of my private life has played out in public." "Please go." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey." "I know you can't have this kind of scandal attached to your name." "I just wanted the opportunity to tell you I'm so sorry, and one day, I hope you'll forgive me, because I swear I didn't-- maybe we were meant for each other, because you love to give speeches, too." "What?" "Okay, yeah, I was pissed." "You set my campaign back, and we may not be able to dig me out of this hole." "But people pry into my past every day, so I understand what it's like to be under a microscope for every mistake you've ever made." "I just need to know, did you do this on purpose?" "No." "I would never." "It was something stupid that was done a long time ago that I never knew would come back to haunt me or you." "Yeah, tell that to my campaign manager." "I'll do my best to disassociate myself from you if that helps." "I just don't know what else to do." "If you need me to, I can make a public statement." "No, I need you to come home." "Morgan?" "I'm sorry to drop by uninvited like this, but Nicole has something she needs to say to you." "Oh." "I appreciate that, but it's not necessary." "I understand how-- if it's not imposing, she needs to do this." "Right, baby?" "Yes, ma'am." "Right?" "Yes, ma'am." "Well?" "I'm sorry for what I did, Ms. Lancaster." "It was dumb." "And?" "And disrespectful." "And I would appreciate it if you let me do some chores or something to pay you back for not calling the police or my school or anything." "Chores, huh?" "What can you do?" "Translation:" "This means anything involving mopping, dusting, or scrubbing." "Let me think about that, Nicole." "I certainly hope she's better at keeping appointments than you are." "Excuse me?" "You never showed up for your interview." "Well, after what happened, I just naturally assumed-- you have retail experience, you're more than competent, and the way you handled your daughter shows that you have a lot of integrity." "Can you be here on Monday?" "You still want to interview me?" "Nope." "I kinda sorta just offered you a job." "Thank you." "Thank you so much." "Welcome to the team." "Does this mean I don't have to mop?" "I think I'll delegate that decision to my newest employee." "Grab some gloves, missy." "We're gonna break all kinds of child labor laws." "Oh!" "Sean." "Raquel let me in." "She said you said it was cool." "It's cool." "Hey." "Hey." "I got you a little present." "Mm-hmm, it's in the bedroom." "Oh." "Take a look." "Oh." "Soul train?" "No doubt." "Remember this part?" "They'd start out like this, with something that didn't make sense." "Ouch." "Mm-hmm." "Okay." "I know how you are when you commit to something, keisha." "You go hard." "That's the keisha I want to be with." "And that keisha, the fully-committed, ride-or-die keisha, is well worth waiting for." "Hmm." "Come here." "Thank you." "You got it, baby."
