- Happy anniversary, dawg. - Thank you.

You think I can get that suitcase back

I let you guys borrow last year for your honeymoon.

You gave me that suitcase.

I said you can borrow it.

Tommy, you said I could have it.

Here's your doggone bag, Tommy, here.

Well, there it is, right there.

- There you go. - That ain't my bag.

Brother, your problem is you don't know

how to respect people's stuff.

You don't know when it's time to get the hell up out of here.

Excuse me, excuse me, y'all are supposed to be friends.

Just to confirm things, as far as I'm concerned

we ain't friends no more.

I just got a phone call, Martin.

- Tommy's been in an accident. - What?

Yeah, they say his car flipped over three or four times.

Tommy's in the hospital.

Look, how bad was Tommy's accident, Cole?

I don't know, man, but Big Earl had told me

that Peaches and Kool-A had told him

that the car was totaled.

Damn, the car. How's Tommy?

Shoot, I don't know. Big Earl's a mechanic, not a doctor.

All I know is they said, they rushed him to the hospital.

Which hospital, Cole?

What? There-there's more than one hospital in Detroit?

Cole, Cole, use your--

Okay. Martin, Martin, Martin, look.

I'm just gonna call a bunch of hospitals

see if I could find out where he is.

You mean to tell me, you don't even know

what hospital he's in.

How you just gonna lose Tommy

y'all don't know where he at, man?

I know, I know, look, look

just relax, man, it's gonna be alright.

Man, don't try to calm me down, Cole

it's all my fault, man.

Tommy laying up in some hospital, man

'cause of me, man.

'Cause of me, man.

'Cause of old Marty Mart, man.

Alright, alright, Marty Mart, just..

Come on, r-relax, man. B-breathe. Come on.

Let it out. Exhale.

Two times.

- Eh! Yeah. - Come on, man.

Look, man, you can't go blaming yourself for that, Martin.

Why not? Why not, man?

We in the movie theater fighting over

arm wrestling and all that, man.

You know, if he hadn't left the theater mad, man

he wouldn't have ended up in no wreck, Cole.

The boy car flipped over four or five times, man.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, true that.

He don't, he don't deserve that.

True that. True that. Yeah, you made him mad.

I guess, it is your fault.

You weren't supposed to agree with me, Cole. Man.

Hey, boo, what hospital is he in?

None of the hospitals that I called

had a Tommy Strawn, Martin.

- None of the hospitals you-- - None of them.

Okay, look, well-well, maybe when they brought him in

he was unconscious.

- Did you describe him? - Yeah.

Did you say he was a tall black man?

- Head look like a Milk Dud? - Yes, bald.

Did y'all hear Tommy had a car accident.

Yes, girl, we heard, but we don't know where he is.

Well, Ray Ray told Corn Papa who told Junie, who works in

emergency with Kin Kin that, that he's in County General.

- Killer county? - Killer county.

- Oh, no! - Oh, no.

- Killer county is terrible. - 'Terrible.'

The last time I was there, they left my uncle in the hallway

stuck with an IV in his arm.

What's so bad about that? There's normal, Martin.

He was just there to see my aunt, Pam.

Now, he don't know who he is.

He think people are followin' him?

Mommy callin' me, "Can you do something about him?"

Okay, look, look, look, y'all.

Let's just go down to County General

see if we could find where Tommy is.

- Okay. - Okay.

Does anybody know the quickest way there?

Oh, yeah, on Pam's back.

Uh, but we all can't fit, so, uh, y'all can ride with me.

- Come on. - 'Come on, now, Martin.'

You know what, he gonna--

Ah!

- Martin, stop-- - Oh!

Martin, come on now, baby.

Let me look and see.

It's not him. Come on, now.

Babe, hold on.

Okay.

Uh, excuse me, but we're looking for Tommy Strawn.

- Is he okay? - What room is he in?

Yeah, I hope y'all ain't got him in one of them

night gowns all assed out either.

What's wrong with y'all, running in here like

it's some kind of emergency?

Well, this is the emergency room, isn't it?

Yeah, but you still ain't got to be all up in my face.

Hold it off. Hold off. Hold off.

- Wait, wait. Just chill out. - Please, please, please.

Ah, excuse me, Miss Nurse, our friend

has been in a terrible accident.

We need your help.

Ooh, you're right.

Honey, when did your head swell up like that?

We better get you to the operating room before it pops.

Come on, baby.

There is nothing wrong with my head.

Martin, there is nothing wrong with my head.

No, no, baby, there's nothing wrong with your head, baby.

Now, look, okay? What room is Tommy Strawn in?

I can't tell you unless you're family.

- Oh, I'm-I'm his cousin. - We're-we're all his cousins.

- Yes, we are. - All of us.

I didn't know we are related to Tommy?

- Shut up. - Cole.

- I don't believe him. - Just like I thought.

Y'all are gonna have to come back tomorrow

during visiting hours.

Uh, yeah, yeah, Ms. Lady is right.

- What? No. - Yeah, look, she's right.

Let's be out. You know, come back.

- I wanna go see Tommy. - Martin, Martin--

Stick with the plan. The lady's--

Martin, Martin, Martin, what are you doing?

Look, look, look.

I got a plan, bam, okay?

Now, check it out.

You and Pam wait for me in the elevator, Gina, okay?

Cole, you sweet talk her while I get a peek at the clipboards

so I know what's happening.

We'll find out what room he's in, okay?

- Check me. How am I doing? - Alright, you're cool.

- Smooth, okay? Alright. - Smooth.

Did you forget something?

Bam, I sure did.

I forgot to tell you, miss, how fine you are.

Bam, and I forgot to tell you to get the hell out of my face.

How you doing? How you doing?

No-no-no-no, look at you look at you, baby, I like

a woman who's thin in the waist and thick in the ankles?

You're gonna have a thick knot on your head

if you don't back up off me.

Baby. I'm into that, okay?

I got the gear at home.

Well, come on, man.

What's up with you--

I got it. I got it, man.

Let's go, alright?

Hurry up. Hurry up, get in there.

Okay, look, look, nurse, it's not like

I'm not enjoying the ride, 'cause believe me, I am.

But you see, I don't need a wheelchair.

All I did was sprain my wrist.

I'm sorry, but that's hospital policy.

- Okay, well, I tell you what. - Um-hmm.

I'll let you roll me now, if you roll to dinner

with me a little later.

Yeah. What do you say about that, nurse?

Hey, what's your name tag say?

I'm Nurse Gottabody.

You ain't lying.

You know, you're very lucky to make it out of that crash

with just an injured wrist.

Yeah, I know, you know, the good thing I have my company car.

But your chart says here, you ain't got no job, man.

Oh, no, see that's a typo. I got a job.

Oh, damn. He ain't here.

What if we're too late?

Oh, man, I hope he didn't check out before we got

the chance to say goodbye.

I thought check out time wasn't until noon.

- Get him away from me. - Cole.

Cole, this is not a Motel 6, this is a hospital.

Well, if this is supposed to be a hospital, Gina

where are all the doctors.

How y'all folks doing?

I'm Dr. Skyhook, I'm gonna have to ask

you all to leave, it's after visiting hours.

No, no, wait, doctor, look, we're looking for our friend.

He was supposed to be in this room.

The patient who was in this bed is down in surgery.

Look, look, Dr. Skyhook, um..

...are you sure he's gonna make it?

Well, it was touch and go there for a while

but I think he's gonna pull through.

Alright, alright.

But, uh, do you happen to know

if he's an organ donor?

Oh, no-no, but yo, he played hell out of some drums.

Shut up!

Look, doc, now-now-now Tommy is my best friend, okay?

So no matter what it costs, I'll pay for everything.

Oh. Well, since you're paying, you can stay.

Okay, is there anything else we could do to help?

Yeah, yeah, anything else we could do to help.

Like, like, if he needs a organ like a cow heart or something?

We got the whole cow right here.

Pam, stop..

Lord?

Can you, can you make it so that Tommy lives.

If he lives, I promise, Lord, I'd be the nicest brother

on the face of the earth.

Does that mean you won't crack on me anymore?

Lord?

Can you make it so that Tommy lives

and I still get to crack on Pam?

I mean, don't make me give up all my options.

Stop playing..

Y'all, can you just.. Hey!

You guys, we are supposed to be thinking about Tommy right now.

Anybody wants some chips?

You know, I really wish me

and Tommy never would have broke up.

You know, I gotta admit, he was the best boyfriend I ever had.

I mean, I, I just miss the way he used to take those

big chocolate hands and rub me all over--

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Whoa!

Slow your row, before all of us need a damn doctor.

I can't help it, I'm just upset.

Why, Tommy, I don't understand

why he would get in a accident.

No, no, no, Pam. Come, girl, Pam, don't worry about it.

- Cole. Cole is here. - I want Tommy back with us.

Cole. I'm here.

Cole is here, girl, don't, I'm here for you.

Cole is here.

Cole?

Yeah, baby, what's up? It's your word.

You know, it's all you. Talk to me.

If you don't get your stubby little hands off me

you gonna have to learn how to eat with your feet.

Get off of me!

Yo, all this worrying is making me hungry.

You know what I wish I have right now

some of Nipsy's hot wings.

Ooh, Tommy used to love Nipsy's hot wings.

Yeah. I can hear him now.

Pass the chicken wings, dawg.

Remember, how Tommy used to always lie about his job.

Er, uh, I got a job, dawg.

You know, please, I worked with him for six months

and I still don't know what he does for a living.

Ah, well, you know, 'cause I already, you know, I'm starting

to miss his laugh, you know.

- Oh, snap! - Wow, I can't believe that!

You sounded just like Tommy, man.

Just like him.

Damn.

I sure am good, huh?

- I was more like impression. - Yeah.

Alright, your friend is out of surgery.

Oh, thank God.

It was touch and go for a while there

but looks like he's gonna pull through.

Alright, well, look, can we, can we see him?

Yeah, but I should warn you that he sedated.

Just out of surgery and already dating. Ha-ha.

That's the man right there. Yo, Tommy's--

Excuse me, Cole.

That means he's out of it, like you.

- Sit down. - Cole, please.

Excuse me? Were you in the accident too?

'Cause your head looks like it's on swollen.

Damn it!

There's nothing wrong with my head.

I think you need a second opinion.

Oh, man!

Martin, you think they got a headologist up in here.

Gina, you don't need to see no headologist, okay?

Even-even he was telling me.

Ain't nothing wrong with your head, baby.

Now, look, okay?

Let's go, 'cause we need to

be there for when Tommy wakes up.

He needs to see some friendly faces, okay.

Friendly faces, real friendly faces.

I said friendly faces, okay, not furry faces.

Stay. Stay.

Look, no matter what shape Tommy is in, just don't react, okay?

Well, what if he looks really bad?

We've been looking at you all these years

it can't get no worse.

Okay, look-look, we'll just act like nothing happened.

- Yes. - There it is. That's okay?

Act like nothing happened.

Nothing happened.

- Oh! - Oh, no!

Man, you look terrible.

Oh, Tommy. Oh, it's bad!

Alright, alright, r-remember y'all, we gotta be strong.

- Oh! - Raise up, raise up.

- We gotta be strong. - Alright.

Okay, Tommy, are you in there?

It's your boy Marty Mart.

He said, "What's up, y'all?"

Hi, Tommy, it's Gina.

Yeah, yeah, and it's your boy, Cole Brown. Remember me?

- What's up, Tommy? - Hey, hey, Tommy.

Pam's here. Hi, baby.

Pam, would you back up off him?

Girl, you breath gonna put him in a coma.

Shut up. Can't you see I'm grieving here.

Alright, look-look. Don't worry, Tommy.

Eh-eh, don't Tommy look good, y'all?

Tommy, you look so good. I don't know why--

- For real. - You just look great.

Excuse me. Are we looking at the same brother here?

This brother here is toe up.

Cole, shut up.

Baby, the-the bandages don't look that bad.

In fact, they look kind of fly.

Right, if King Tut can rock it, babe.

- You know you can, Tommy. - Yeah.

Baby, what can I do to make you feel more comfortable?

Baby, not with all these bandages on?

But when you get better, I promise we'll talk about it.

He wants me, y'all.

Pam, the man is sick, not desperate.

Hey, yo, yo, you know what we need up in here?

We need some tunes. Let me turn this radio on.

Oh! Oh! Oh!

- I got it! - I got it!

I got it! I got it! It's okay.

What you doin'..

Cole, you are so dumb!

That wasn't a radio, that was a heart monitor.

- My bad. - Dumb.

Hey, hey, yo, yo, yo.

I think that's Tommy's wallet.

It might have a business card or something here though.

Sorry, Tommy, I just got to know.

Gina, what does it say on it?

Nothing it's clear. Nothing. Nothing on it.

- 'Cause he ain't got no job. - Damn.

Well, look, don't worry, Tommy, okay?

Until you get back on your feet, look, man, I'm paying

all your bills for you, man.

Alright, don't worry about it.

Martin, are you sure that we can afford that.

I don't care, Tommy's my boy.

Hey, look, whatever you need, brother, you just call on me.

You hear me? Whatever you need.

'I'll help you.'

Till I'm gonna need.

'I think I left my wallet in here.'

I want to give you a business card.

It's okay. Here's my phone number.

Oh. Thank you.

You know, I remember when we were kids, it was, it was wild

'cause, like, Tommy was the only, like

bald head third grader I had ever seen.

Really? I didn't know Tommy had a bald head in the third grade.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, he was the first member

of the head club for boys.

Look-look-look here, Tommy, man.

Um, you're my boy, man, you're my best friend.

You're like the brother I never had, man.

What I'm tryin' to say is, I ain't got nothing

but love for you, Tommy, man.

I ain't got nothing, but love for you too, Martin.

What? Did y'all hear that?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

It's a miracle.

Say something else, Tommy.

I'm over here.

- Tommy! Tommy. - Hey, how you doing?

What the hell?

What the hell, man! I thought you was in an accident.

Yeah, I was, man. I sprained my wrist, see?

Wait a minute.

You had us worrying all damn night

over a damn sprained wrist?

Man, you could have called a brother.

Let-let me know what was happening.

I didn't call you, Martin

because you weren't speaking to me.

Well, you guys, I think this would be

a good time for us to leave.

Yeah, look, we're gonna wait in the waiting room

while you guys work this out.

Alright, thanks.

Look, look, bro, okay, I'm-I'm really

I'm sorry that you guys were worried about me

but I really didn't think you cared.

Look, Tommy, I know we weren't speaking, man, but look I ain't

tryna see you, see you get hurt, be in no accident, man.

Especially I know the accident was my fault.

No, man, it had nothing to do with you.

See I swerved to avoid hittin' a dog.

A dog?

You know what, man?

We've been friends for far too long

to be fighting over nothing.

I'm sorry, man, okay?

I'm sorry this whole thing

just got blown out of control.

You're cool, man.

- You just all that, man. - Alright.

You all that, man, you know. Now, let's go.

Let's be out of here, man--

Hold, hold, hold, hold, Martin

is all you got to say, man?

I'm all that, and let's be out.

Damn, right, Tommy.

Costing me $8 an hour

to park up in here, man. Let's go.

You can't say it, can you, bro?

- What-- - You just.. No, no.

You just can't say I'm sorry.

You can't say you're sorry.

What? What do you want?

Is that all you wanted was an apology?

Well, then why didn't you just say so?

You know that? That's easy, you know?

You know, I'm..

I'm s..

I'm so..

I'm sorry you ever..

I'm sorry you ever gave us that fake ass luggage

in the first place.

That's what I'm sorry about. I'm truly sorry about that.

Apology accepted.

- Yeah. On the real. - On the real.

- On the real. - Aww!

Who the hell is that?

I don't know, but I offered to pay his hospital bill.

- Let's be out. - Yeah.

Don't worry, brother, you're gonna be alright.

- It's been a long night. - Yeah.

You never know how much your friends mean to you

until something happens.

Huh, drop the size, baby. Drop the size.

- Martin. - Yeah.

Speaking of friends, uh..

My friends didn't come visit me this month.

What are you talking about?

Pam come by here damn near every day.

Barking and scratching at the door and whatnot.

What are you talking about?

No, Martin, my other friend.

Gina, I thought I met all your friends.

Okay, okay. Martin..

Whoo.

You know how I've been nauseous

and tired and eating everything in sight.

Gina, are you trying to tell me..

Baby, I'm not sure yet, but maybe..

Are you trying to tell me I might, I might be a daddy.

Yeah, baby.

- Martin. - Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!

- Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! - Martin.

- Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! - Martin, where are you going?

I gotta tell somebody, that know somebody

that know somebody, to tell somebody.

Hey, Detroit, did y'all hear that?

Old Marty Mart might be a daddy.

Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!

Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!

- Oh, baby. - Baby, are you happy?

- Oh. - Dance it, baby.

Work it, daddy. Work it, daddy. Work it.
