We talked about having a child and naming her Anika.

What the fuck?!

He thinks Anika is his daughter.

And why would he say that?

We had sex.

Did you forget that it was my grandfather's endowment

that paid for this church?

And you talking about you giving me a good life?

I'll be damned if that bitch gets my earrings.

We have a problem.

No, no, no.

I know damn well y'all not here talking to her.

- I know-- - Naomi? Naomi?

- No, no, no. - This is very important.

Mm-mm! Y'all sitting here talking to her?

Hey, we could just go. You wanna go?

- No. - Let's get her seated.

- You don't have a seat for me. - You can sit next to me.

Can you scoot?

Scoot down. Scoot.

Y'all should've had a seat ready for me.

I have. It's right here.

Glad to see you.

- We're just keeping it warm. - Thank you.

There you go. There you go.

And down. Good girl.

I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good.

I'm good. Yeah!

- I'ma scoot you in. - Ooh!

- Don't fall on me. - Okay.

I think it's time we get the auction started.

- Right now. - Right away.

Thank you.

- Yes. - Okay.

Why can't I sit next to her?

- I want to sit over there. - Nope.

- You are good in your seat. - Why?

All right?

Ooh! Who's he?

I'm Javon.

Ah, Javon's a friend of ours.

Hi, friend. I'm single.

Hi.

Can we get her some coffee?

No, I don't want no coffee. Hm-mm. I don't want it.

I don't want no coffee. No, no, no.

Here we go. Here we go.

I told y'all I don't want any coffee.

Thank you. Here. Here, just take a couple sips.

Just a little bit. I got you here.

That's one way to drink it!

You like my dress?

Baby, you are killing the fashion.

- You look great. - Thank you.

- Killing it. - I needed some retail therapy.

- I love your earrings. - Do not engage.

Okay.

You know he gave them to me as a wedding gift.

Look, the auction is starting.

- Okay. - Oh, okay.

Oh, you're gonna turn your back on me?

Naomi, they're watching the auction.

Stop it.

That's typical. He always does that.

- Is she gonna stay here? - Hm?

- Is she gonna stay here? - I can't ask her to leave.

- Yes, you can. - Jeff--

She's your friend. See, I told you--

Okay, okay, okay.

...toes in the sand.

Who's going away to the Bahamas?

Let's get started at $10,000.

We have 10.

I'm sorry. I'm Naomi.

- Javon. - Tiffany. You on a date?

- No, they're not. - Oh.

No, we just met, actually.

I see. Rawr!

Let's have some of this.

I said I don't want it. I don't want it.

Oh, where's the bar? Where's the bar?

Where's the bar? I want the bar.

This is a church function.

- They do have wine. - No. No. No.

Wine. Yes. I know y'all got wine.

- I know it's cheap. - No. No.

You're gonna drink this coffee.

Why are you trying to manage me?

Come on. Just drink it. Just take a sip.

- Naomi. - Huh?

Drink the coffee.

Fine! Ew! Ew, it's not hot enough.

Bridgette. Where's Bridgette?

- Bridgette! Bridgette. - Yes, yes, yes?

Can you bring me the pot?

- The pot. - Okay.

- Thank you, Bridgette. - Bridgette. Make it really hot.

And no cream.

Only one person at this table

likes to mess up some good coffee.

- Okay. Here we go. - White trailer park.

Watch out. It's hot. Naomi.

- Okay. Careful. - Mm-hmm.

- Rasheda. - What?

Get her out of here.

- She don't need to do nothing. - Naomi.

You're making this really hard for me.

And I know you don't want to do that.

So drink the coffee. And stop it!

Hey. Okay.

You a member of this church?

Oh, y'all laughing? What are you laughing at?

Absolutely nothing.

No. I'm not a member of this church.

We're surprised to see you at a church event.

Oh. No. This is not my scene.

This is... her. No.

It's good to see you here with some good Christian folks.

Bridgette. Enough of that talk. Okay?

Christian folks be doing more evil than good.

- Right. - So here.

Got some more coffee, all right?

Drink this. This one's... This one's hot. Okay?

Here. Be careful. Be careful. It's hot.

We have sold it for $50,000. $50,000.

This is gonna be good, Pastor.

Ah. Yes, it will. So good for the new building.

Our next item up for bid tonight

is this beautiful leather-bound Bible that is 100 years old.

Can you imagine the prayers that went into this?

Imagine as you bid.

Really good prayers, y'all.

Speaking of really good prayers...

Pastor, ain't that your $300,000 car out in front?

I mean, is that a good idea,

seeing how many people are in need?

- Sir. - Huh?

We really need to get security to take her out of here.

Let's just see if she keeps it up, okay?

Honey, we should bid on that.

Look at them two. Look at them two.

They're leaning in, talking to each other.

- Honey, we should bid on that. - Yeah? Okay.

My mother would love it.

Fifty-five.

Fifty-five. Sixty.

Look at the devil trying to buy the Bible.

Maybe we should give it to her. Hm?

She probably needs it more than your mother does.

What's so funny?

Oh, I was just saying you should put a bid in,

seeing as you have enough of my money to do so.

Come on, Franklin. Don't do that.

Oh, come on, Jeff.

She has never given anything to anyone other than herself.

I give all the time.

Right, to Gucci and Prada.

Uh-huh, and Louis.

I gave all your whores some charity.

Okay.

What's she trying to do, buy a horse?

A stable? What the fuck is she trying to buy?

She's trying to save some whales.

Thank you for the $2 donation. It went a long way.

Oh. You see this?

It made me want to get up across the table--

Okay, okay.

There's a lot of tension at this table.

You have no idea.

Um, excuse me. Naomi, was it?

Mm-hmm.

Might I tell you that you are a lovely woman?

- Oh. - Absolutely lovely.

Now, now, I don't want to be creepy,

but I am a bit of a photographer,

- and I would love to shoot you. - Well, photographer.

Well I mean, not professional.

I've been known to dabble a little bit.

- Takes amazing pictures. - Uh, thank you, brother.

And you as well.

Miss Tiffany, it would be my absolute pleasure.

Thank you.

So what do you say, Naomi?

A woman as beautiful as you deserves to be photographed.

Come on.

Hey, as a matter of fact, I could make a photo shoot

for all of you ladies. How about that?

- She ain't in the photo. - No, no, no.

How long have you all been friends?

Oh, my God. Longer than I can count.

I know. I love you.

See, now that is beautiful.

And I appreciate you allowing me to be in your company.

Now, here we go. Look at this.

Check out some of my latest and greatest.

- There you go. Check it out. - Hand me that, please.

There you go. There you go, ma'am.

See, this is, uh...

- It's upside down. - Yeah.

What about that lighting, though?

- Oh, my God. - Yeah.

It's really good. It's really good.

Wow. It's awesome. I like it.

Thank you.

I don't know what you're talking about.

- I know what you're doing. - I'm trying to.

Yes, I would love for you to photograph me.

Now, this next item,

I need you to get ready to bid high and often

because it is from one of the African-American greats,

Ouellette.

Wait, what?

Hold on, Miss Auctioneer. I need the mic.

I'd like to tell these fine people all about this painting.

- Oh, no. - No, no, no, no, no.

Wait, he--

Oh, my God. He want to fight.

Well, welcome Mr. Franklin Price to the stage, friends.

- Good evening, everyone. - Good evening.

It is nice to see some of you.

So here's the lowdown on this painting.

I recently reclaimed it in my divorce settlement.

And I am thrilled to see it in such excellent condition

because my ex-wife... oh, man.

Yeah, it's exhausting just thinking about her.

She is a monster.

She honestly tried to destroy

everything of mine when we were separated.

Excuse me, when I left her.

And it was, quite frankly, the most toxic situation

I had ever been a part of.

Well, other than being married to her, of course.

My new wife. Hi, baby.

No, stand up.

She is not toxic at all.

No, no, no.

- Her love and happiness... - We can't let him do this.

- You need to stop him. - What do you want me to do?

- Jefferson, stop him! -

- She is worth it. - Okay, I can't.

But forgive me, I digress.

This painting was actually painted by my ex-wife's

drug-addicted brother. Yeah.

And if I'm being completely honest with you,

I never really liked it. At all.

But it turns out, because he died of a heroin overdose,

the value of his collection went crazy.

Yeah, I mean, through the roof. Worthless alive.

Worth $1.2 million as a dead man.

Now, that is irony at its finest, my friends.

So, with that being said, let's start the bidding.

And if you want it, you'll have to bid well.

Now, as you can all imagine,

this painting is quite significant to my ex-wife.

She was very close with her brother.

And she holds a very special place for him in her, well,

tiny little heart.

So, with that being said, let's start the bidding at,

I don't know what's fair. Anyone?

Any suggestions? Okay.

- Let's say, uh... $5. - Wooh.

Ah, there we go.

It's all yours, Miss Auctioneer.

Well, five, now $10. Who's in a bid now?

$10. $10 bid.

We have $10. Now $20.

- Now $30. - No, no, no. Stay at $10.

$10. $10.

$5,000.

$5,000 bid. Look at that.

Now $10. Who's in a bid now?

$10,000 bid. $10,000 bid.

- $20,000. - $20,000.

Now $25. Anyone in a bid now? $30. $30,000.

You know what?

Since this is such a worthy cause,

I will take the painting for $5 million.

Oh!

That should help the church. Don't you think, Pastor?

- Yeah, it sure will. - Jeff!

Well, it will!

Unless, of course, you know,

it means so much to someone that they'd be willing to pay,

I don't know, $37 million for it.

Yeah, that's what my ex-wife got in the divorce settlement.

We have sold it. for $5 million

to Mr. Franklin Price!

It's a piece of trash, baby.

I suppose we can hang it in the garage.

- I want to go. - Yes.

- Let's go. - Yeah, let's go.

Let's go.

- I got this. - No, no, no.

- It's okay. - All right.

- Come. - We got you.

Come on, come on. All right, come on.

No, come on, let's go.

- I'm thirsty. - I know. Come on--

Let me go!

We need a medic!

Get an ambulance. Are you okay?

I'm fine. Tend to her! Get help!

Oh, my God...

Arrest her! Arrest her!

It's okay, baby.

We need an ambulance!

Get an ambulance! Get help!

- Thank you. - Thank you very much.

I'm fine. I'm fine.

We really should take you to the hospital.

- No, I'm fine. Okay? - Okay.

I'm not nearly as bad as Lindsay.

Have you called to check on her?

Yes, sir.

They're on their way to the hospital.

Okay. Let's go.

- I'm going to check on Naomi. - You're going to do what?

- I need to check on her. - You saw what she just did.

- She's still my friend. - You know what?

- I just don't understand you. - Jefferson.

This man just gave us millions of dollars,

and you're not going to go to the hospital

to check on his wife to see how she's doing

because your friend just hurt her?

Listen, guys.

Please don't fight about this, okay?

Okay. I'll go down to the precinct to be with her.

She's probably going to be in there all night.

Okay. It'll be tomorrow before she even sees a judge.

I'll call Judge Davis. He goes to the church.

No. No, Rasheda. We're not doing that.

Jefferson!

Guys, let me handle it, okay?

- I'll go with you. - I'm good.

I know a few judges here. Let me make some calls, please.

I know people, too. I'm good.

You know what? You go. You go. I'll get a ride home.

It's okay. I got to get home to relieve Sarah of Anika, okay?

- Can you take her? - Absolutely.

- Thank you. - I'm going with you.

Okay.

William, I can give you a ride home.

- Thank you. - Yeah, sure.

Honey, I'm going to drive the pastor home.

- No, you're not. I'm good. - Okay.

- I'm fine. - Okay.

I really appreciate the ride.

Anytime. No problem. What a night.

- Right? Man. - God.

Oh, it's going to be a long one for Naomi.

You already know that.

You know, Geneva said that it was...

She said it was bad, but I did not know it was all that.

- Boy, you just don't know. - I know.

Oh, my God. He was wrong for that.

And he knows how much that girl loved her brother.

I know, right?

- I don't know. - Hmm.

Well, wait a minute. Don't you know him?

I mean, I do, right? But it's like...

How can I say it?

He's a hard person to get to know.

- I'll say that. - Oh, I know.

- Yeah. - Look, I don't really know him,

and I didn't think he would do that.

It's like he was just, you know,

almost like torturing her almost.

Right. Right. I'm glad you see it now.

- Oh, how could I not see it? - Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

I just... I just hope she's going to be okay.

Yeah. She'll be fine.

Well, I'm worried about her.

I'm the one who brought her to the coffee pot.

Yeah, but you didn't know she was going to... Wait.

You didn't know she was going to do that, right?

- I didn't. - Okay, good.

Then just don't blame yourself.

I still can't believe she did that.

You know what you do, Bridgette? You just let it go.

All right? And this is all going to work out.

Hmm. Hmm. Classic William.

What?

I just love how you're so positive.

I mean, what's the... What's the alternative?

- To be like... - Naomi?

- Right. - Yeah.

And how does... Where's Naomi now?

- In jail. - Clink, clink.

Right?

- Can I tell you something? - Hmm.

I just love how you love my friend.

Oh. That's my soulmate.

- That's so sweet. - Yeah.

You know she's blessed to have you.

I'm the blessed one.

- Geneva was God sent. - Hmm.

And y'all going to Italy? What?

We going to Italy.

- I can't wait. - Oh, take me with you, please.

And away from this drama.

Why do I feel like that has nothing to do

- with what happened tonight? - What?

I saw your friend.

- William? - Hmm?

What am I doing?

I think you know what you're doing.

No.

This man is just so immature and young, and...

I mean, I know I look young and everything.

- You do. - But I'm just...

I'm just too old for this, okay? Auntie can't keep up.

You can't keep up? Bridgette...

But listen, if things don't work out

between Javon and Tiffany, give him a try.

What you talking about working out?

They just met tonight.

But did you see them sitting together?

You saw them. It was like... It was chemistry there.

- Hmm. - Huh?

I orchestrated that whole thing.

Yeah.

- She is a good woman. - Yeah, he's a good man.

But if things don't work out with them,

I guess maybe I'll give him a try.

Child, listen.

Things don't work out with you and your young friend...

You got jokes?

I got jokes. You're gonna find somebody else.

I'm serious. You just gotta keep living.

You gotta keep trusting. You gotta keep trying.

- Hmm. - You got to keep praying.

- Classic William. - Classic William.

- Classic William. - Classic William.

Yeah. Yeah, hey, thanks. I know.

We're on our way there right now.

Yeah. Yeah. I appreciate you.

Every day and twice on Sundays, baby.

Thanks. Bye.

What did he say?

He's gonna talk to the magistrate,

try to get her released on her own recognizance.

- Okay, that's good. - Not so fast.

That's y'all's friend. So they're doing me a big favor.

You sure she's gonna show up?

- She will. - Okay.

If not, it's my neck that's on the line.

- I will make sure that she does. - Okay.

- You all right over there? - Yeah, I'm fine.

Very quiet.

Yeah, well, it's been quite the night.

You could say that again.

- Javon? - Hmm?

Thank you for what you did at the table.

I don't even know what you're talking about.

Oh, come on. It was smooth.

I'm just trying to help.

Well, bringing up your photography was very brilliant.

Mm-hmm. I have been told I'm a pretty good lawyer.

I can tell.

I'm not a bad photographer either.

Oh, wait. Those were your photos?

I am offended. Of course they were.

You're a renaissance man.

- Well, Geneva could tell you. - Oh.

Once upon a time, I took some pretty good pictures

of Miss Gigi over there. Ain't that right?

- You never told me that. - Ah?

Offended again. Look at that.

You didn't want to show them to anybody?

- No, no, that's not it. - Well, I want to see them.

I don't know where they are. I have to go find them.

Oh, they're so bad, you don't want to show them to anybody.

- Okay, that's fine. - I'm sure.

I'm sure that they were really good.

I don't know if she thinks so.

Well, you do, don't you?

Yeah, I do.

Well, I want to see them.

Look, can we not do all this small talk, please?

Did you not just see what Naomi did?

- Yeah, sorry. - Exactly.

Come on, this is serious, y'all.

We're talking potential jail time here, okay?

I was just trying to take your mind off of it.

Yeah, well, I don't need

anything taken off my mind, okay?

I don't need distractions.

I like to deal with things head on.

- Well. - Mm-hmm.

Are you crying?

Are you...

Rasheda, I told you to get her out of there.

What? What?

You know what? I'm okay, by the way.

What?

You were just standing there. I got burned, too.

It seemed like you had someone watching over you.

- It wasn't my wife. - You sure?

What you talking about?

I see the way he looks at you.

Rasheda, I'm not going there with you tonight, okay?

You think every man and woman in that church is after me.

I don't know about him.

He was there with his wife, Rasheda.

You mean the wife he barely paid any attention to?

You know what? I'm not gonna make this about Myron.

Because guess what? Myron doesn't matter, all right?

He wasn't the one that threw hot coffee on that poor girl.

Poor girl?

- Poor girl? - Are you judging her?

She had an affair with him. Got pregnant.

And now they're both taunting her.

Yes, I'm judging her actions because they're awful.

And now I gotta go to a hospital and pretend like I care.

Well.

Isn't that what a good First Lady and Pastor should do?

Care.

Since you care so much, Pastor,

how about you pray for me since you got it all together?

Mm. I always do.

Yeah. You sure do. You always do.

Everyone else, everything else.

Meanwhile, your whole family's falling apart.

When was the last time

you talked to your son about his grades slipping? Huh?

Weren't you supposed to do that?

It would be better coming from his father.

I mean, something's gotta be done, Jeff.

This boy is out of control.

He's acting out. He's being disrespectful.

And now he's running around with some potheads.

If you don't say something, this is gonna...

Okay. Got it. Will do it.

Anything else on my husband list?

Yeah.

How about you try sleeping with your wife

more than once every few months?

Mm-hmm. Cool. Got it. Noted.

Anything else?

- You think this is funny? - No, no, no, Rasheda.

I actually don't. I think it's actually very sad.

So do I.

It's sad because...

I don't know what to do to please you.

Are you kidding me?

Look, I do everything I can. I try hard.

But you're not happy.

You are the one who's constantly criticizing me.

Don't try and turn this around on me.

That's what you always do.

Always try to say I'm turning something around on you

- when I'm not doing that. - You are.

You are and you do.

No, I'm not doing that, Rasheda.

That's exactly what you're doing, Jefferson.

You undermine me. You ignore me. You overlook me.

You don't give me the respect I deserve as a wife.

I'm sick of it.

- Go on. Make a list. - Oh, I have.

- Well, I have one, too. - Well, we on mine now.

Okay, fine. Keep going.

I asked you several times. Was Franklin gonna be there?

And you never told me anything.

He came at the last minute.

Well, it's at the last minute that you should have told me.

You know what? You're right. You are absolutely right.

What else?

Naomi is my friend.

Don't patronize me.

There we go with that again.

I asked you to not invite Naomi.

Naomi is my friend.

Yeah, who needs professional help.

- I know that. - She threw coffee everywhere.

I know it. I saw it. And?

See, she's more of a problem with us than anything.

You know, for some reason,

you just continue to keep her around.

She's rude. She's loud. She's obnoxious.

She's low down. She's ratchet, Rasheda.

That's a real nice talk for a pastor.

Look, she hates God and the church, and you know it.

Jeff, you know everything that woman's been through.

Yeah, I do. Which makes me wonder about you.

What are you trying to say?

I'm saying, Rasheda, you can't save her.

You're definitely not trying to help me save her.

You know what?

I can't believe we're having a conversation and an argument

about your ratchet friend.

- Look, she's not worth it. - Jefferson.

Look, I don't like her, okay?

She's the reason why we almost didn't make it

down the aisle, if you remember.

But for some reason,

you still want to be friends with her.

Cut her out of your life.

You will not tell me who I can and can't be friends with.

And you won't tell me who I can and can't invite to the banquet.

You know what? This isn't getting anywhere.

Yeah. You know what?

You right about more than one thing.

Say what you really feel, Jefferson.

What I really feel is about our marriage, okay?

All this fighting.

This isn't what a marriage is supposed to be.

Well, then fix it.

Well, for that to happen,

I can't do it by myself.

Showing up would be a start.

All right. All right.

- Oh, Sarah, hello. - Hi.

- I am so sorry that I'm late. - No, it's fine.

- Yeah, is she asleep? - Yeah.

Okay, okay, come on, go. Get out of here.

Oh, okay.

Goodness, goodness, sorry. Be careful.

- I will, thank you. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know what? Let me walk you to your car.

No, it's fine. This neighborhood is safe.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

All right. I'll see you tomorrow.

- Okay, thank you. - You're welcome.

Aw, shit.

Okay.

Hey, baby.

- Hey. - Hey, hey, I'm home.

- Is Anika asleep? - Yes, she's asleep.

- Good. - How long until you get home?

I don't know.

Javon made a call into a colleague of his,

so we'll see how it can work.

Oh, that's good. So I'ma just wait up for you?

- No, you don't have to. - Are you kidding me?

This can go well into the morning.

Well, I'll just get somebody to take my classes.

- No, go to bed. - All right, all right.

- Is Tiffany there? - Yep.

Are they getting along?

Do you think that that's something

I want to talk about right now, William?

You know what? You're absolutely right. I'm sorry.

I'll see you when I get home.

All right, babe. I love you.

I love you, too.

Hey, wait. Don't hang up.

You know, just looking at you tonight, all dolled up.

You know what it reminds me of? It reminds me of prom.

You remember how nervous you were?

Huh? I do.

Sorry, I gotta go.

Okay, just, yeah, I'll see you when you get home.

- Bye. - All right.

I love--

Oh Lord...

Oh!

- Oh, hey, baby. - Hey.

You ain't bring me no plate? I seen what happened, too.

- How? - It was online.

- What? - Yep.

Shit.

Yeah, somebody from the church had posted it.

This world...

- Yeah. - Hmm.

They calling old girl a hero.

What? Why?

Because she went after that white girl

- who stole her man. - Are you serious?

Mm-hmm. Read the comments.

I don't want to read that mess.

Look, babe, I wanted to apologize about today.

There's nothing to apologize for.

I really didn't know, for real. But I get it.

What exactly do you get, Vaughn?

I get that our age difference is hard for you.

But, babe, you make that an issue, not me.

I'm not trying to make anything an issue.

Me either.

So I'm not gonna hang around your friends

until you figure out how you really feel about us.

- I know how I feel about you. - No, you don't.

But I know how I feel about you.

And I really do love you.

I love you, too.

- But not like I love you. - Vaughn. Vaughn.

- Okay, okay, okay, okay... - Stop.

I know you had a long night.

So I want you to go upstairs, slip in something nice,

and I'll be up in a minute.

But I bought these for you. Smell them.

Ain't nothing to smell. They ain't real.

Baby, they're not gonna die, though, like our love.

Oh, thank you.

It was the thought that counted, I guess.

Yeah.

Did you take this from my bathroom upstairs?

Don't worry about all that. But just go upstairs.

I'ma be up there in a minute.

I'm gonna let you run me some bath water

so you can show me how much you love me.

Because I just showed you.

Here, Vaughn.

Take the, take, take, take the flowers back.

- Hey. - You beat us here.

- I told you to let me drive. - I told you I'm fine.

Appreciate you guys coming.

How is she?

She has third degree burns all over her back.

- I am so sorry, Franklin. - That fucking bitch.

Yes, I said it.

Naomi has dragged me through hell and back.

And has tried to destroy me and mines along the way.

Well, the two of you playing those games isn't helping.

This is not a game, Rasheda.

Well, what do you call tonight?

You know how important that painting is to her.

Hmm. Yeah.

Well, she should have thought about that

before she tried to turn my son against me.

- Look, maybe we should just-- - Hold on.

Let me get this straight.

So you're telling me that you believe her actions

- were justified this evening? - That's not what she's saying.

Then what are you saying, Rasheda?

Absolutely not.

I don't agree with her doing that.

I don't like any of this.

That's your friend, right?

- You need to tell that b-- - No.

- Your friend to stop. - I have.

And now I'm telling you to stop.

- Jefferson, get your... - Okay, but what?

What? I'm sorry. What was your...

- What did you just say? - Babe. Babe.

Bitch. I got your bitch.

Babe, we are in public.

You are our first lady. Come on.

Come get it together.

Myron, take the first lady home.

I'm not going nowhere.

We came here together and we're leaving together.

- Rasheda. - Period.

Franklin, can I pray for your wife?

- She's not welcome. - I'll come.

- Myron, watch the first lady. - Watch?

- Oh, so I'm a child now? - I'm sorry about all of this.

I bet you are.

Oh, God. Oh, my God.

- Let's pray, my brother. - Yeah. Okay.

Dear Heavenly Father, we pray right now for Lindsay.

I pray that you would heal the burns on her back.

I pray that by your stripes that she would be healed.

In the mighty name of Jesus I pray.

Amen.

- Amen. Thanks. - You're welcome.

She is... Yeah, she's out of it, man.

They have her on quite a bit of meds for the pain.

I'm so sorry.

She didn't even want to come, Jefferson.

She only came to make me happy.

I know. If I knew that Naomi was coming...

Jeff.

You and I have been friends for a really long time, right?

Yes, we have.

And you know...

I really value and appreciate the things

that you're trying to do with this church thing.

- I know you do. - Uh-huh.

But I have to be completely honest with you.

I'm having a real hard time

reconciling your wife's choices, man.

And for that reason, I can't give you the money.

I understand.

Well, she just got to make better choices, man.

If she decides to... disassociate herself from Naomi,

maybe I'll reconsider.

Look, I completely get your point of view

and where you're coming from.

Yeah, but what I don't understand

is why she would want to be affiliated

with someone like that. She is pure evil, Jefferson.

- She is the devil. - I hear you.

And it makes me question why you and your wife

would want to be associated with someone like that.

I don't have any argument with you on that one.

Yeah. That's unfortunate, man.

Look, man. I am truly sorry.

Jeff, I really appreciate you coming.

Yeah.

I'll be here with Lindsay until further notice.

Look, you know, I'd love to stay and just...

No, no, no, no, no. You go take care of that.

I'm just gonna... get some rest, man. I'm exhausted.

Okay.

But you know how to reach me if you need anything.

Absolutely.

- You okay? - Yeah.

I'm all right, man. Just a minor burn.

Jeff, you should get someone to take a look at that.

I will be fine.

Look, man, I'll call you in the morning.

- You know where I'll be. - I do.

- That was so rude. - Yes, he was very rude.

Look, his wife is in the hospital.

I was there. I saw it.

And you refusing to let Myron take you home.

As I said, I came with you. I'm leaving with you.

Well, thanks to your friend, he's not giving us the money.

- He never was. - What?

He came here tonight to do exactly what he did,

which was to taunt Naomi and make her angry.

No, he didn't.

He was actually gonna give us the money.

I don't believe him.

You always fall for stuff like that.

Rasheda.

When has this man ever gave anything?

He came here tonight to do exactly what he did,

which was to make her angry. And she did.

Cool. You just see it your way, okay?

I see it the right way.

Well, now...

we're short on the down payment for the building.

God has taken care of us thus far.

Yeah.

Well, we had it.

- And now you are letting it... - You?

Don't try and blame this on me.

She's your friend.

You let that man call me out of my name and you did nothing.

He really didn't open the door for me.

He didn't open the door for me.
