I miss Sean.

This whole long distance relationship thing is hard.

Joan, I told you, sometimes sisters have to do it for themselves.

I mean, I do have Darnell, but he does work late.

Well, for me, it's about being with the other person. Come on, Joan. Don't you

ever just look at yourself and get turned on?

You get out of the shower and you look in the mirror and you think, God, I am

hot.

Yeah, I do, but then all the other women in the gym always give me this dirty

look

Sweetie! Gabby!

Hey!

How's it going?

Oh, it's been a little slow this week.

Don't worry, Mama's here and she brought friends. Love you.

Okay, you are stunning.

Okay, I only have $100.

Oh, you're cute.

Will you all come on, please? I'm hungry.

Maya, you haven't tried anything on yet. It's a sale.

A sale? Joan.

Sweetie, a sale is when a flashing blue light comes on and everybody runs to

aisle six to buy something for $5 .99.

This? Uh -uh. This is not a sale.

This is gorgeous.

And it's your size. Mine's right on.

Okay, Joan, it may be my size, but unless this price is in pesos, no

Guys, none of these fit.

This one's too tight in the chest. This one's too tight in the chest. And this

one's too tight in the chest.

And the hips. My girls are singing in this one.

Joan, get that.

No, this is for Maya. She's going to try it on. Where is she going to wear

something like that?

I mean, because you're a mother and you have a child, he could spit up on it or

something.

He's eight.

Shoot, I don't know him that well.

I'm trying it on.

Hey, guys, do you like this haircut?

What is it?

$105. Can I borrow $5?

No.

Tony? Girl, you better get out of my face.

Hey, I've been working two -hour shifts, four days straight. I'm trying to treat

myself. I thought you were going to treat yourself to some groceries.

Groceries only last a week. A hair clip is forever.

Okay. Okay.

Wow.

Maya, you just went from off the rack to off the hook.

Damn, I date you.

I do look cute, huh?

Cute. Muffin. No, no, no, no, no, no. Not cute.

Fabula.

Gabby, honey.

Overkill. We got this, okay? Don't worry. You'll get your commission.

Maya, you have got to buy that dress.

Thank you.

I can't get this dress. It costs $300.

Okay, well, if you're not going to buy it, can I borrow $5?

Maya, get the dress.

You had a morning from hell. You deserve a treat.

Joan, I'm a mother, a wife, and a commuter every day in the morning from

So with your theory, I'd be treating myself every day. Okay, and what's the

to punch in?

Yeah, I barely have any money and I'm treating myself.

Sometimes you have to just put it out there and trust that the universe will

provide. Oh, yeah, and typically that would be Joan or me bailing you out.

Compliments of the universe.

Okay, you know what, Lynn? Girl, you can blow through all of your money, okay?

Because you're not going to be busting tables forever.

You've got five... college degrees, and you know, someday you're going to be

making really good money. I may never be making much more than I do now.

Don't look at me. That's up to human resources.

You know, not only do I have to think about Jabari's tuition, okay, I've got

Little League fees, and he's going out of his shoes every two seconds, and not

to mention, I've got this dinette set that we've been trying to get out of

layaway for the past six months, and I've been promising Big Mama a George

Foreman grill.

Maya. Maya.

What?

It's always going to be something.

But sometimes you've got to stop and treat yourself.

I mean, how often do you do that?

Okay, that was the whole point of the dinette set.

It is my color, huh? You look good, girl.

Yes, I do.

And you do work hard. I heard that.

And you take care of your husband.

Every day. You know, that ain't easy. And you take care of that child.

Jabari, see? See, I remembered his name.

You know what?

hard -working mother.

I am?

Damn, I deserve a treat. Yes, you do. Okay, now what else do they have up in

here? Oh,

LeVon,

you don't have to keep picking me up from work. I have a car.

But it ain't bulletproof.

I'm trying to keep you safe until you get to the altar.

Well, you know, the altar comes with conditions.

What exactly are you planning on quitting the force, honey?

Well, since we're on the subject, I was wondering when we're going to set our

wedding date, sweetie.

Well, I did put an $8 ,000 diamond ring on your finger. That said something.

$4 ,200. I had it appraised. Your turn.

I came running down to Jamaica to get you. Your turn.

I made you a member of the Mile High Club twice.

What you got?

A bouquet of flowers yesterday.

Oh, was that before or after I cooked you dinner? I washed the damn dishes.

I put the damn dishes away. In the wrong place.

I am the man, and I'm putting my foot down. Quit your job, Yvonne.

Yvonne?

Baby, your turn.

Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

Okay, well, baby, where's Pluto?

Mama, haven't you heard? Pluto isn't one of our planets anymore.

What's up, little man? Give me a pound.

Baby, did you know that Pluto isn't a planet anymore?

Did you know there's no money in our bank account?

Jabari, honey, go brush your teeth. Go on.

Can't take that hat off in the house, boy.

Maya, did you get any of my messages? No. What messages?

The fuel pump on the Trans Am went out, so I gave them the ATM card, and they

tell me there's not enough money. So now I gotta catch a ride with Peanut and

them, and you know his car smells like feet.

Would it kill a brother to drive with some shoes on?

No, it wouldn't.

Um, baby, maybe there wasn't enough money in the account because

I, um, I bought a dress.

Honey, $30 ain't gonna wipe out our bank account.

Well, baby, father of my child, add another zero.

$300?

Woman, what the hell kind of dress costs $300?

$500 dress on sale. But, baby, I thought that maybe the dinette set could wait.

Plus, Maurice owes me $200.

Your cousin Maurice?

He need to save that money to get his teeth cleaned.

Darnell, I deserved a treat.

Then you should have bought a damn Snickers.

Well, we did get some ice cream afterwards. Who's we?

Joan and them.

Here we go. Joan and them. What's going on with you?

Ever since them trifling women came into your life, we ain't had nothing but

problems. Okay, you know what? This isn't even about them. I spent the

until now, we always discussed how we spent our money. Now you're going behind

my back and buying dresses that we can't afford. Boy, ain't nobody going behind

your back. Where's the damn dress? Behind your back.

Okay, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I can do this.

Okay, see?

Maya, the dress.

I'm getting it.

Oh.

This is what you spent our fuel pump money on?

I'll take the dress back.

Damn straight you're taking the dress back.

Damn straight you're taking it back. What'd you say? I said stay black.

Hey, baby.

How's New York?

Honey, you know, I'd never cheat on you or anything, but I need some sex.

Well, have you been going to your sexual addiction meetings? Yeah, but they're

not helping, and these cravings are interfering with work, and I'm having

trouble sleeping because... Well, you know how I like to lay on my stomach.

Baby, well, I'm here for you. What do you need me to do?

Why don't we just have some phone sex, and maybe that'll get it out of my

system. You sure?

Yeah, yeah.

Um, what are you wearing?

Just a G -string and...

Some stiletto heels.

Sweetie.

So tell me, how many hearts did you break with that dress?

Um, just yours, because I have to return it. Oh, I'm sorry.

No refund.

But I can exchange it for something of equal or lesser value.

Okay, well then I hope you have an 87 Trans Am fuel pump in the back.

No, but I do have some really cute alligator pump.

Oh, but they're $1 ,500.

Okay, you know what? Let me try this, okay?

I bought a dress, and I want to bring it back so I can get my money back, so I

can get my husband back, right?

Okay. Well, let me try this.

I can write you a store credit slip.

made myself clear to you, okay? You are ruining my marriage.

Oh, sweetie, no.

You see, it's your impulsive buying habits that are ruining your marriage.

Don't blame the dealer.

Blame the junkie.

Okay, bye -bye.

I hope that shopping bag is filled with money.

Nope.

It's the damn dress.

The Diddy Boutique doesn't do refunds.

You're right, baby.

I shouldn't have gone shopping with John and them. I should have gone to Target

and bought myself some Cherokee activewear.

I'm sorry.

You know, I must have been out of my mind thinking I could buy a dress that

expensive.

You know something?

Forget the dress.

Don't worry about it. I'm going to figure something out.

What? Come here.

Come on.

Maya, baby.

Honey, I want you to have expensive clothes, okay?

I want to be able to buy you anything that you want.

Thank you.

Thank you. I love you so much, Tarnell, and I am so...

I love you, too.

Now, do I get to see you in this dress that costs more than a fuel pump, huh?

Baby, I look so good in this dress.

When we go to Jackie's wedding next week, I'm gonna look better than her.

That ain't gonna be hard to preach. You're gonna look better than Jackie.

You like?

I likes. I likes a lot.

Yes? Now let's see what it looks like down around your ankle.

Hey, Snuggles!

What's wrong, sweetie?

You look upset.

Don't tell me you had to kill someone.

No, Willie. I quit the force.

My killing days are over. At least in uniform.

You did that for me.

For us.

If my job was getting in the way of me and my true love, I had to rethink my

priorities. Our happiness means way more to me than my happiness.

I know what'll cheer you up.

Let's go to the post office and look at the wanted posters.

That always gives you a chuckle.

I don't want to, Willie.

All right. All right.

You can play undercover cop posing as prostitute and...

i'll be unsuspecting john full strip search every nook and cranny

okay meet me on our street corner in 45 minutes i need time to buy a new hooker

outfit because if i'm gonna turn the trick i need a treat

you

like that you like that

to sleep now?

Baby, come on. Don't go. I've only got a couple hours before work. Just hang in

there with me. Come on, Sean.

We've been doing this every night.

I've run out of both energy and attitude.

I'm going to bed now, okay?

I love you, boo.

Good night.

Baby.

You hung up on me? I said goodnight.

I'm in the middle of a crisis. I helped you get through the crisis, okay? Now

you're just being greedy.

Hey, how was court?

Well, I got a good nap during jury selection.

What? Well, I was up half the night with Sean.

We had a terrible fight.

Well, I was up half the night with Darnell.

But we went back.

For what?

We apologized this morning, but it's not the same over the phone.

Well, you know what, girl? You need to go and see him.

I have got five briefs on my desk now.

And I only read half of one. A friend told me that sometimes you have to treat

yourself.

I could take the red -eye tonight, read on the plane,

And you know how you get treated?

If you bought yourself a fabulous $300 dress to show up in.

No. No? No.

Hey!

Gabby, right?

Right. You know, I have changed my mind about the dress. I am going to take the

store credit.

Well, great.

You know, we're getting a lot of really yummy things in next week.

Oh, that's so great. Yummy.

Here you go.

Thanks for shopping Ella Rose. Thank you, Gabby.

Hey.

You want to buy a $300 store credit for $250?

No.

Okay. Great. Cash only, no refunds.

What? Hi. What are you doing?

Well, sweetie, if you won't give me my money back, I'll just have to get it

another way.

I'll give you $275. Oh, $275.

$275. Can I get $295?

Oh.

You can't do this. I'm doing it.

Okay.

Look under the pillow and see what the tooth fairy left you.

Hey. Ta -da.

What's this?

It's your fuel pump money, baby.

Maurice paid us back.

No, I figured out a way.

Turn the dress?

Aren't you proud of your wifey?

But I thought I told you to keep the dress and that I'd work something out.

Okay, baby, I'm not hearing the proud.

Oh, hold up, hold up.

But don't you trust me to earn enough money to take care of business?

I tell you to keep the dress and you blow me off by running down there and

taking it back?

Well, baby, I was trying to help. You know, I was trying to fix it.

See, but it wasn't for you to fix.

I asked you to let me do that.

Oh, don't know, I just...

I just figured since, you know, I created the problem.

Man. Look, baby, I'm sorry.

Don't touch me now, all right? Hold on.

Look, I said I was sorry.

Okay, baby, I wasn't trying to make you feel like you couldn't take care of me

because I know that you can.

Do you?

You know, it's like we're not clicking the way we used to, baby.

Maybe we should pray.

What?

A family that prays together stays together.

All right, you pray. I'm going to sleep.

Baby, please be mad at me, okay? Do not be mad at God.

I'm so glad you're here.

Me too.

Okay, we have 35 hours.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

You know, we wouldn't have to rush if you just move here and live with me.

What? Yeah, I thought all this out. Look, I'm making enough money to support

Or you could get a job here. I've been dealing with some law firms. Wait,

serious?

Yeah, I'm serious.

Baby, I can't move.

People move all the time.

I have my house and my friends. I mean, I'd have to pass the New York bar.

I have my therapy.

Baby, I'd love to be with you, but... I'm sorry.

Come on, let's go upstairs.

You know what?

What? I need you to stay in the hotel.

What?

Wait.

I won't move here so I can't stay with you?

I'm a sex addict.

And I've learned a few things about my addiction.

Before we got together, I hadn't done it in almost two years.

And I was doing okay.

But when we were together, we did it constantly.

And it was great.

I can't do this one or two weekends a month thing. I'm going crazy. I need to

cold turkey again. Wait, you let me fly all the way here to tell me that? I let

you fly all the way here because I thought you'd want to be with me. I'm

coming to New York once a month to stay in a hotel.

I want you so much that seeing you is just too hard.

So I'm just your fix?

You're my fix, and you're the woman that I'm in love with.

Please, reconsider.

You can move back to L .A., you know. Because of my addiction, I lost

everything. This job is the break that I've been waiting for.

Does that mean that this is it?

Maybe in six months when you finish with your job.

I'll know where to find you.

I can't promise that I'm going to wait for you.

I wouldn't ask you to.

Okay, ready to do this?

Yeah, let's get it over with.

Okay.

Anybody? want to buy $3 ,000 store credit for $2 ,999?
