- My father always used to say to me,

"Son, you only come this way once.

See the world, tell people what you saw.

Leave your mark,

interpret the human experience through your lens."

So how did I end up here?

Good morning, James Hayes.

How may I help you?

Hey, Teresa.

He's downstairs to see me now?

Did he say he had an appointment?

Okay.

I gotta stop and get his loss report,

but tell him I'll be down there in just a few minutes.

Yeah. Thank you.

- Look at that.

- That's it?

- What do you mean "That's it?"

My car didn't look like that before.

- Did you say your wife was injured in this accident?

- Yeah, and?

- How could anyone possibly have been injured?

I mean, the bumper's barely scratched.

- All I know is after the accident,

my wife's neck started hurting.

So we went to the hospital

and they gave her a cervical collar

and a prescription for medicine.

We're supposed to follow up with her doctor.

That's what we're gonna do

and your company's gonna pay for it.

- Let's go inside, Mr. Frowd.

- Hey. - Hey.

You know, sometimes when I'm driving to work,

I wonder how the hell did I get here?

You get paid just enough

to create a lifestyle you wanna maintain,

but you'll never make enough money

to be as comfortable as you like.

- At least you have a job, your bills get paid.

What's the big deal?

- The big deal is we give away the best years of our life

and energy to a place we don't really wanna be.

- Every morning when I come in,

I see you working on something

that is clearly non-insurance related

on company time using company equipment

and it's not costing you a thing.

- I spend 40 to 45 minutes a day writing.

The rest of my day

is spent listening to people lie to me

and they don't even have the decency to do it well.

- Speaking of lying and deceiving,

what do you think about that nonsense

they're trying to pull with the raises?

- You mean the raises we're not getting this year?

- It's because our expenses are really high.

- Oh, come on, Angela.

The company's losing money

because of consistently poor decisions.

- That's not it.

- Obviously you've been drinking the Kool-Aid.

- No, I just read the annual report.

- You know, two months ago they tell us

we're not getting the raises that we deserve this year,

only to tell us last week that they're spending $75 million

on a brand new hockey arena in a town

that doesn't have a hockey team

and never had one. - Yeah, but it's not like

they're gonna write a check out for 75 million.

- I mean, do they think that we can't figure out

that we're not getting the raises this year

because they're spending money on unnecessary bullshit?

- You have options.

- Yeah, so Angela,

since you've got those hooker heels on,

why don't you to come over here

and give me a quick lap dance?

- Grow some equipment and I'll think about it.

- You know what?

Why don't you just give him some?

Maybe he'll leave you alone.

- He wouldn't know what to do

if he had printed instructions.

- She wishes I needed printed instructions.

- Hello?

Hey, what's up?

Oh, I know. It was awesome, wasn't it?

- Let's get started.

- That's my supervisor, Sharon.

She's required by corporate to hold these biweekly meetings

which are a complete waste of time.

I mean, I can't even act like I care anymore.

Not at all.

Now you've already met Steve and Angela.

That's Holly and to her right is Greg.

The people I work with make this job bearable.

Now the only reason I ask questions in these stupid meetings

is to keep myself from falling asleep.

♪ We said all that we could say ♪

♪ Can you relate to me in another way ♪

♪ We said all that we could say ♪

Uh-oh.

- What?

- When a woman is looking at a dude

like you looking at me now-

- First of all, I'm not just some woman.

I am Sanaa Medcalf,

the love of your life.

Now rephrase that.

- Okay.

When my crazy ass girlfriend, Sanaa,

is looking at me like you looking at me now.

- Now why am I crazy?

- Because, damn, Sanaa, it's 2:00 in the morning.

You gotta be at court first thing in the morning.

And let's not forget we just had the best-

- We did not just have sex.

We made love.

- Are you gonna let me finish the sentence?

- I just did.

- Just ask your question.

- Well,

do you believe in open marriages?

- We're not married.

- Exactly.

So, I'm not talking about us.

Answer the question.

- No.

I don't believe in open marriages.

- So you feel like you could stay with one person

for the rest of your life?

- Well I hope so.

- Do you think that's realistic?

- Yeah.

Yeah, I do.

- I don't.

I think that some women and most men cheat.

So, things would work out a lot better

if they could just be open

and honest with each other from the start.

- Okay, so why get married

if you wanna have sex with other people?

Just stay single.

- Do you think that I love you?

- I hope so.

- Stop being silly. You know I love you.

- Yes, baby, I know, I know.

You love me.

- What if I told you I wanted to have sex with someone else?

- Man or woman?

- Does it matter?

- Yeah.

- Why?

- Because if it's a woman,

I may wanna watch.

But if it's a man, I'm gonna tell you to keep it moving.

- Well, I wouldn't mind if you had sex with another woman.

- Okay, what's really going on here?

- Nothing.

We're just having a discussion, babe.

- Are you serious with all this?

- I just wanna pick your brain.

I think it's healthy for couples

to have these types of conversations.

♪ Show me, show me ♪

- Okay.

What if I said I wanted to have sex with your sister?

- Karima?

- Yeah, Karima.

What if I said I wanted to have sex with Karima?

- So that's how you look at her?

- No, but you just sat up in here and said

you could watch me have sex with another woman.

So what if that other woman was Karima?

- Yeah, but the fact that she was

the first person you thought about

makes me believe that that's how you think of her.

- No, it doesn't.

- Yes, it does.

- Wait!

Sanaa.

Don't leave, Sanaa. Wait a minute!

Come on, hey, sweetheart.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Come back.

I knew it.

I knew it, I knew it,

and I still took the bait.

Boo. - You know what?

This whole time that we've been hanging out with Karima

you were secretly hoping I would get drunk and fall asleep

so you could have sex with her.

- Get drunk? Fall asleep?

What are you talking about?

I didn't start this. You did!

- I was speaking hypothetically.

- Can we just get back in bed and talk about this?

- No.

- Why are you feeling some type of way

about a conversation you started?

- Don't you remember me telling you

about the last guy I dated

who only used me to get to Karima?

- Jesus.

Where's your car, man?

See the people, get a little creative inspiration.

- Exactly.

That's all the footage from Rio.

You see the edit notes that I put in your email?

- Yeah, I got it. - Perfect.

How long do you think it's gonna take you

to get me a sample together?

- Give me a week.

- Cool.

That's what I'm talking about. - All right, man.

- All right, I'll give you a call in about a week or so.

Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Are you still mad at me

about what I said about your sister the other night?

- Yeah.

I'm in my feelings a little bit.

- So you brought me out here

so you could be mad face-to-face?

- Pretty much.

- Babe, we were just having a conversation.

I really didn't mean anything by that.

And you laughin'.

What's so funny?

- I'm not really mad at you.

I just wanted to see you squirm a little bit.

- Really?

- I mean, yeah, okay.

I was a little upset that night

but I thought about it and, like you said,

we were just having a conversation.

But.

- But.

- If we're ever out with Karima

and I even so much as think that you're checking her out,

I'ma have your ass sent for a year.

- Yeah, I hear you, babe.

I'm a peaceful brother.

I don't want none of your people pulling up on me.

You gonna have your goons pull up on me?

- I might.

- So, why did you wanna meet out here?

- Okay.

Um...

I am considering

moving to New York.

- New York? Why?

- Well, a partner's retiring

and they named a woman to replace him,

a black woman.

So she reached out

and she said that this would be a good opportunity for me.

- Opportunity to do what?

- To make partner.

- Did they say that they

were gonna make you partner, Sanaa?

- Well no, but with her on my side

I have a pretty good chance.

- So is this definite?

- Well, no, nothing's definite

especially I haven't talked to you about it.

- Babe, I appreciate that, I really do,

but damn.

New York?

- I want you to come with me.

- How am I gonna go with you?

I'd have to find a job and what about my house?

- Yeah, I mean, there's plenty of insurance companies

in New York

and your house, shit, you can rent that.

- I don't want another job in the insurance business.

And I'm not just gonna be able

to rent my house out just like that.

- Babe, you work in insurance already.

I don't see what the difference is.

- I don't want another insurance job, Sanaa.

I wanna travel so I can blog about it.

- Yeah, you can do that eventually,

but babe, right now,

I mean, come on, this is- - Wait, wait, wait,

wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

If we moved to New York,

it's gonna about money, marriage,

and Sanaa, what if you get pregnant?

- Well, what would be so wrong about that?

- Nothing would be wrong with any of that

once I'm established as a writer.

- All right.

I'll leave it alone.

I'm not gonna rush you into anything.

Just know that this is a huge opportunity for me.

A game changer.

You hear?

- I get it. I get it, okay?

- Come on.

Give me a hug.

- Oh, Tony.

Uncle Tony!

- Nephew, what's going on, baby?

- What's good?

Come on in.

Hey man, why don't you get yourself a nine millimeter

and get rid of that starter pistol?

- Shit, it'll put a hole in you.

- Yeah, but you only got six shots.

- Shit, all I need is one.

- I still say you need a nine millimeter though.

- Nah, revolvers don't jam.

Hold on, hold on.

- What?

- How are you gonna have me over here at dinner time

and I don't smell no grease?

- Uncle, who said anything about cooking?

I called you over here so we can talk.

- How you gonna have family over here at dinner time

and you ain't got no food on the table?

- I don't even cook for myself.

So you know I'm not cooking you jack.

- Well, since I can't get a meal,

what you got me over here for?

Make it quick. I got shit to do.

- Scored Edwards landed three goals

helping pass the Wolves eight to three.

The chargers throttled the Bucks nine to two.

- You know this some bullshit, right?

- Tonight the Bullets

put their first place lead on the line

in a game with with the Tempests.

- Do you remember my girlfriend, right?

- The one we went to the Falcons game with last year, right?

- Yeah, Sanaa.

- Yeah, I remember.

- What do you think?

- Personally?

I usually like them a little thicker than that, you know?

I like them like Serena Williams.

That real big fat-

- Timeout, Uncle, timeout, timeout.

Whoo.

You wild, Unc.

That's not what I meant.

- Damn, I'm just fucking with you.

I know what you meant.

- What do you think about her?

- I mean, you know, she seems nice.

You know, I didn't talk to her that much.

She's a lawyer, right?

- Yeah.

- What's the problem?

- She got a job offer in New York,

wants me to go with her.

- Weigh your options, make a decision.

- Oh, I don't wanna go

but I love her, I care about her.

So me saying, "I don't wanna go"

it's just not that easy.

- So if you don't wanna go, don't go.

All that other stuff is your heart

trying to override what your mind

knows to be true.

- I don't know if I wanna go down this road.

- You plan on marrying her?

- I don't know. We haven't talked about all that.

- Do you think she wants to marry you?

- I don't know. I don't know.

- It's a yes or no question.

- Yes.

- Okay.

And you say you care about her.

- I do.

- You say you care about her

but you don't wanna tell her

that you don't wanna move to New York.

That doesn't make any sense to me.

- That's why I'm over here talking to you about it.

- The Gladiators

shouldn't have much trouble with the Henchmen

and the Barbarians are still 14.

- If you say you care about her

and you're not ready to commit,

what you gotta do

is let her go to New York and meet other people.

- Five games were featured

in hockey action last evening.

- If she meets a guy that she wants to be with,

you let her go.

That's the way you treat somebody you care about.

Now the selfish thing to do

is to, is to, you know,

lie to yourself and lie to her

and keep her around

until you figure out what you wanna do

with no regard to how it's gonna affect her.

- So just tell her I don't wanna go?

- Why don't you wanna go?

- Because, Unc, I wanna quit my job.

You know that.

I wanna travel,

I wanna shoot my videos,

I wanna blog and I wanna write about it

and if I go off to New York with her,

it's gonna be about her, it's gonna be more expensive,

and I'm never gonna able to do my own thing.

- Why don't you just make-

Hold on a second.

Hello?

- The front running Bullets

ripped the Crusaders 14-three

and the Dragons got past the Jets seven-six.

- No, I don't care nothing...

Well who is still there?

No, fuck that.

I'm gonna say it just like this.

You tell whoever is still at the house

to tell Shamal that he better find me before I find him.

It's as simple as that.

All right, I'll see y'all when I get there.

I gotta go.

- All right.

Hey, when you gonna stop by and look at the deck?

- Your deck?

- Yeah, remember I told you some stairs were loose.

- Uh.

What about this time next Wednesday?

- Wednesday works.

All right, now.

Who are you texting?

- Oh, it's just someone from work.

- Can it wait till tomorrow?

- No, she actually,

she's working out of her New York office.

What?

- You should go natural, grow an Afro.

- No.

Yeah, no.

- I'm serious, baby.

- No, sweetheart, that's not me.

Plus I don't think that'll go over well at work.

- Ah, so that's it.

They won't let you go natural.

- No, they can't stop me.

But I think that it might inhibit my advancement.

- Chemicals and all, out here trying to assimilate.

- I am not trying to assimilate.

I like my hair the way it is.

I got you with my hair like this.

- Damn, babe, that's because I used to squint real hard

and then I'd fantasize, ooh,

with a big old Angela Davis Afro!

You would look like this, babe.

So you wanna talk about

that big pink elephant sitting in that chair over there?

- Oh, you mean New York?

- Yes.

- Well, I wanna go.

Are you coming with me?

- No.

- Well, why not?

You don't think it would be a good move for us?

- I think it'd be a great move for you and your career.

- No, it would be a good move for the both of us.

I mean, you've established a career

in the insurance industry

and you can just take it to the next level

by coming to New York.

- Sanaa, you know I don't like my job.

I hate it.

- Yeah, but your job is your reality.

- You know, to me, you only got two options in life.

You can either live your dream

or help someone else live theirs.

And I'm tired of helping other people live their dreams.

- So you think coming to New York,

you'll be helping me live my dream?

- I was talking about me, my life, my career.

I wanna get up and do what I love for a living.

- That's unrealistic.

I mean, I love my career too,

but there's sometimes I don't feel like getting out of bed.

I mean, everybody feels like that.

- Would you practice law for free?

- No.

- Well see, I travel,

I shoot video, and I blog about it

and I do it for free because I love it

and I wanna do what I love for a living.

- What you're talking about is a hobby.

- I'm gonna make a career out of it.

I don't know why you don't understand that.

- So you're really not coming?

- No, I gotta be on the right path

before I can make a move like that.

- Well what about us?

- If you go to New York

and you're meeting another people

and you're working on- - Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hold on. - What, what?

- Meeting other people?

I thought we were in a committed relationship.

- We are.

- So why are you talking about meeting other people?

Is that what you're trying to do?

- Of course not.

But what I'm saying is-

- No, I heard exactly what you said.

I think it's some bullshit.

I think that you had a Freudian slip

and now you're trying to reel back from it.

- It wasn't a Freudian slip.

I meant what I said.

- I know!

- Hold on, hold on. - No, don't touch me!

- Will you just relax?

Babe, just chill out for a minute.

- Get off of me! - Okay, I'm not touching you.

- So, what, I'm supposed to think

that you're going to sit in front of your computer

for 24 hours?

You know what?

If you didn't wanna be together,

you should've just said something.

I can't do this.

- Wait a minute.

Hold on.

Come on now.

Can we talk about this?

- We just did!

- I don't wanna leave things unresolved like this!

May I speak to Oscar Heiler, please?

Yes, ma'am. My name is James Hayes.

Yeah, I submitted an article for next month's publication.

Good morning.

My name is James Hayes

and I submitted a story for December

and I got an email from you guys

saying that you needed some more source information.

This is James Hayes.

Mm-hmm.

And I submitted a piece.

Hey Beau, what's going on, man?

I'm doing good.

Hey, well I was looking at the rough cut

from Rio last night

and there's some things I wanna incorporate into it.

Yeah, yeah.

I'm gonna send you the edit now.

Be careful.

See what I'm talking about?

This, this?

- Oh yeah, damn.

- Yeah.

All of that.

- Yeah, see here, see?

They used nails instead of screws

and they're pulling right out.

- Oh, okay, okay.

- That's an easy fix though.

- So how much is it going to cost me?

- It's not gonna cost you anything.

I'm gonna show you exactly what needs to be done

and I'm gonna watch you do it.

- Come on, Unc, you know I'm not handy like that.

- Yeah, I know,

that's why I'm gonna supervise.

You talk to Sanaa about going to New York?

- Yeah.

- And?

- She's in New York.

- I take that to mean you're not goin'?

- I told her to go up there, chill,

and she didn't find someone,

maybe we could be together.

- Is that how you said it to her?

- Yeah.

- No wonder she left.

- What you mean?

That's what you told me to say.

- Yeah, but I thought you'd be smart enough

to say it the right way.

- Well, be that as it may, what's done is done, so.

- When did she leave?

- Mm, about two weeks ago.

- When was the last time you spoke to her?

- Tried to call her numerous times,

she won't answer the phone,

won't respond to my texts either.

- So how's the video blogging and writing stuff going?

- Now that's going good.

As a matter of fact, on my way to Europe.

- Europe? - Yeah.

- Didn't you just come back from Rio a couple months ago?

- Mm-hmm.

- Are you sure that you can afford to go to Europe?

- Unc, I can't afford not to.

- I respect that.

Stepping out on faith.

- Coming from you, that means everything, man.

Everything.

So what's up with this?

- Next weekend.

Yeah, next weekend should be good.

- Cool.

- Since you're a writer,

the next time you have something to say to Sanaa,

you should probably write to her, all right?

This way there's a 50/50 chance

that you'll be able to edit yourself

before you say some stupid shit like,

I wanna have a threesome with her sister.

- You think you know what, you got jokes.

You think you funny.

- I'm serious.

- So that's how you do nephew, huh?

- It might be the best advice I ever gave you.

- You got jokes. Very funny.

- Now let's get out of here. It's hot as shit.

- Of course.

Going at me about her sister.

Boy, I tell you.

Yes, sir.

Firststateinsurance.com.

Just like it's...

Yes, sir, I'll spell it for you.

F-I-R-S-T insurance.com. That's right.

Okay.

Yeah, once I receive it,

I should be able to get payment to you

in a couple of days.

Yes, sir.

Thank you for calling.

Good morning. This is Jay.

How can I help you?

You wanna know if I received the email, Mr. Frowd?

Did you get an error message?

Well then that means the email was received, sir.

Yeah, they kinda got this email thing

pretty much figured out.

- Excuse me, sir. Do you have any change?

I'm just trying to get enough money

to pay for my hotel room.

They won't let me back in the room until I pay.

- No, I can't help you.

- You don't have to give the money to me.

Just go to the lobby.

- I don't have any change.

- Man.

Excuse me, Miss. Excuse me.

- When people come up to me begging,

I usually just brush them off.

But for some reason,

I couldn't forget about that woman at the store.

- Look, I appreciate you taking care of this room

and helping me with my bags and all,

but I don't have nothing for you.

- How did you end up homeless?

- We ain't even got that kind of time.

- As a matter of fact, I do.

All right, now look.

This is just gonna be two people

having a conversation, okay.

Real easy.

We're just talking

like we did a couple of days ago, okay?

- Okay.

All right.

Where do I start?

- Why don't you tell me

the first recollection of your family?

- Okay.

It may sound strange but my first memory is of my mom.

She was arguing with someone on the other side of the door.

I was really little,

maybe like two or three.

I couldn't tell what she was arguing about,

but I remember that it was a man

and she was so upset.

He was screaming and cussing her out,

calling out her name.

It was a mess.

Hello?

- Hey, I just finished the edit.

We're about to go live.

- About to go live?

- Yeah, the Gram, Twitter,

Facebook, YouTube, Vimeo, everywhere.

- Wait, okay.

So how am I gonna see it?

You know I don't have a phone.

- They got computers in the hotel lobby, don't they?

- Yeah, but I never used them.

- They're for the guests and you're a guest.

- All right, I'll check it out.

- Okay.

Hey, how's that job search going?

- Nothing ye but I'm gonna keep it pushing.

- It's gonna happen for you.

You're too strong of a girl to be kept out.

- Yeah, I really hope you're right.

- Well, look, I'm gonna get back to the grind, okay?

You call me if you need something.

- You want to take a six week leave of absence

to go to Europe to do what?

- Well I'd like to finish a project

I've been working on and I-

- Project? What project?

- Well, it has nothing to do with insurance.

It's something I actually do outside of work.

- And what kind of project is it?

- Well I'm writing and shooting a video

on international travel.

- That's the kind of stuff you do when you retire.

- Well, the retired people I see when I travel

don't seem like they're enjoying themselves.

As a matter of fact, they look like

they just wanna sit down somewhere

and, you know, Sharon, I want to do this

while I'm still young, you know,

while I can still turn up.

- Turn what up?

- All I'm asking for is three additional weeks

on top of the three I already have.

- Three weeks.

- My first stop was in Southern France

for the Cannes Film Festival.

Natalie Portman, Kate Blanchett were all there.

I was also just on the outside,

but I was there too.

And then on to Paris.

The Louvre Museum.

By the way, the Mona Lisa is a lot smaller

than you would think.

Get a flight to Rome to see the Colosseum.

And then back to reality.

Hello?

- Hey, it's Sanaa.

- I know.

I still have your number programmed in my phone.

- First of all, let me apologize

for not taking your calls or responding to your texts.

- Yeah.

I would've thought you were dead

unless your mom would have told me otherwise.

- I just...

It was a lot with the move and everything.

- I get it.

I get it, Sanaa.

But I thought you may have

at least called me before you left.

- I wanted to but I didn't know what to say.

All I could think about

was the fact that you weren't coming with me.

And I knew if I saw you, it would all come back to that.

- So how are things going?

- Great.

I'm learning a lot.

I have more responsibility than I did before.

I'm adjusting.

So what's going on with you?

- Well I literally just walked through the door

from Europe.

Phone rang and it was you.

- Wow.

I always wanted to go there.

Couldn't wait to dump me

so you could start jet setting, right?

- So when are you coming back to Atlanta?

- Thanksgiving.

Yeah, I'll be back for Thanksgiving.

- Well, when you get in town,

if you got some time, give me a call.

- That would be my first thought.

Jay, can you hang on for a second?

- Yeah.

- I really have to go. I'm still at work.

It's good to hear your voice though, Jay.

- Yeah, it was good talking to you too.

Bye.

Hey, are you looking for Beau?

- Yeah, I am.

- I just called him.

He said he'd be here in about 20 minutes.

- Wow.

I don't have time to wait.

All right. Thank you.

- You're welcome.

Hey, I was gonna tell you, if you...

You wanna roll your window down a little bit?

- I can hear you.

- Yeah, but I can barely hear you.

- I'll talk louder.

- What do you think I'm gonna do?

- I don't know.

- I'm saying I'm waiting for Beau just like you are.

- Okay.

- I was just gonna say, you know, if you had to leave,

I could tell Beau that you were here,

but you just couldn't stay.

- I was just about to call him.

I'm good. Thank you.

- All right.

I'm just trying to help.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

- No.

Why?

Come on, come on, come on.

Damn.

Hey, do you mind if I use your phone?

My battery died and I don't have my charger.

- Can I see your teeth first?

- Why do you need to see my teeth?

- To make sure you got some.

There you go. That wasn't so hard.

- It's locked.

- Oh, my bad.

- Thank you.

- Mm-hmm.

I just tried to call Beau

just before you pulled up.

He's probably not answering

because he'll be here in a few minutes.

- Okay.

Well, I might as well sit.

- Yeah, sit.

- I guess I can wait on him.

So when did you go to France?

- Actually, a couple of weeks ago.

That's why I'm here.

Dropping off some of my footage to Beau.

You ever been to France?

- I went there to study for a semester.

- Uh-huh, wow was it?

- Um, it was nice.

It was really a great experience.

I got to see a lot of Europe

and see a lot different people, different cultures.

It was cool.

- You must speak French fluently.

- Well, I wouldn't say fluently,

but I know a little something.

I mean, I think the problem is that people from France,

they speak so fast and the accent is so different.

- Right, right.

- Yeah, I'm just used to people

from America speaking French and, you know,

but I made it work.

- There you go, there you go.

Obviously, learning a foreign language can be tough.

- Mm-hmm.

You go by yourself?

- Yeah, I did.

Actually, I needed to get away for a little bit.

I was also finishing up a project.

Then I went to the Cannes Film Festival.

Man, that was awesome.

- What do you do?

- I work for an insurance company.

You know, but what I really wanna do

is I wanna travel and shoot video

and tell my story like only I can,

you know what I mean?

Yeah. - Right. That's nice.

- How about you?

- I'm a photographer.

- Head shots and baby photos?

- No.

More like urban landscapes and-

- Really?

- I like to take pictures of people with interesting faces.

- Nice, nice.

- You know, I like how natural light hits an object,

so I just try to capture it.

- That's awesome. That's awesome.

I'd love to see some of your work sometime.

- Yeah, you can ask Beau.

I'll let him know that you wanna see some of my stuff.

He's working on a reel for me right now, so.

- Mm, I would like for you

to show me some of your work.

- Why?

- Because it's your work.

Duh.

I'm Jay.

- Monet.

Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you.

- So is Jay your government name

or is it some kind of nickname?

- Yeah, it's short for James.

- Okay.

And my name really is Monet,

not Diamond or Lexi or some kind of stage name.

- You don't have a stage name, do you?

- No.

I haven't had a stage name

since fifth grade when I played Juliet.

And if I did have a stage name?

- Gotta get it how you live.

- Yeah, okay.

Most men say they'd date a stripper,

but if it came down to it,

they wouldn't even take her seriously.

- Wait, you trying to date me?

- I didn't say you.

I said most men. - Oh, you did, you did.

So when are you gonna let me see some of your work?

- I'll give you my number

and then we can talk on the phone first

and then we'll see.

- Okay, so let me ask you this.

♪ With speed I'm agile ♪

♪ Plus I'm worth your while ♪

So you're A Tribe Called Quest fan.

- What?

I love, love, love, love me some old-school hip-hop.

- Okay, Biggie or Pop?

- Biggie.

- J. Cole or Kendrick Lamar?

- J. Cole.

- Drake or Weezy F Baby?

- Drake.

- Best to ever do it?

- Hmm.

Commercially, you'd have to say Jay Z.

But Illmatic may be the illest album of all time.

So is Nas the greatest?

Then Snoop's been around 20 years

and then you still got Black Thought, Rakim,

Eminem, Biggie, Pusha T.

I mean, you could make an argument

with any one of those guys, so.

- Wow.

Impressive.

- My roommate when I was in grad school,

she was an intern for a label.

So she used to keep me up on everything.

- Grad school?

- Yeah.

I got my master's degree in education,

even though I knew I wanted to be an artist.

- So why get a master's in education

if you wanted to be a photographer?

- My parents wanted me to have something to fall back on

in case the creative thing didn't work out.

So I promised them that I would get my master's degree

and then they gave me a little bit of seed money

to tie me over just in case things didn't work out

and, you know, that way I could get started.

- Sounds like a waste of money to me.

- Mm-mm.

No, you are totally off base with that.

- Okay, so tell me one meaningful thing

you learned while you were in grad school.

- The word Negus, N-E-G-U-S,

is a word using in reference to Ethiopian sovereignty

and the root of the word, N-G-S a noun

derived from the ancient language of Geez.

So basically when someone refers

to a group of people as niggas,

they're basically calling them a group of kings.

- That's not true

because I'm quite sure that back in the day,

master was not referring to his slaves as kings.

- Right, because they were ignorant

about where the word came from and what it meant

much like yourself before I told you.

- How do I know that's true?

- Okay, well, since you're a visual person,

go to YouTube and type in spelling bee N-E-G-U-S

and then you don't even have to

tax your little brain to read.

They use it in a national spelling bee.

Now there's so much more to the etymology of the word nigger

but I don't even want to go into it

because your whole head might explode.

- I'm just gonna let that go.

I totally didn't mean to say that.

I'm a good girl.

- You know, we're gonna have to have

some sort of date set up before we get off this phone.

I mean, we've been havin' hella conversations

and I feel like it's my duty,

no, no, no, my obligation to get us in the same space.

I just wanna see you again

and I don't care where.

A bird.

Come on, Monet. Stop playing with me.

You know what a thot is.

A player. Player?

- Okay, so same, same situation,

Right.

And you think that's right?

- Probably not, but I mean, let's face it.

That's the reality of the world we live in.

- Ah.

Kind of like how women get paid way less money

than men to do the same exact job.

- Wait, wait, wait.

Pay disparity is institutional.

Sexual mores are more societal.

Yeah.

- Okay, and one affects the other.

You men are raised with an antiquated notion

of what it is to be a woman

and you take that with you everywhere you go.

- Do you secretly hate men?

- No.

Not all of you.

I do love my dad and my brother very dearly.

- What am I supposed to think

when I see a woman like that with a body like that

walking down the street dressed like that?

- She's liberated.

- Now you said liberated.

Come on, I don't want that kind of liberation

for my daughter.

- Okay, well then you better impregnate

a forward-thinking fully developed woman.

And the only way you're gonna be able to do that

is if you open up your mind

and start forming your own opinions

instead of carrying on these antiquated

and provincial ways of thinking.

What?

- You know what, ordinarily,

this kind of conversation would be a huge turnoff.

But for some reason today,

I find it real stimulating.

- Oh, you stimulated?

- Yeah.

Julia, we came here today to tell your husband-

- I want you to go to church with me.

- Where do you go to church?

- Mount Calvary.

- Yeah, I know exactly where that is.

Matter of fact,

I visited there a couple times

before I decided to stop going to church.

- Why'd you stop going to church?

- Just kind of felt like I was going through the motions.

I mean, in the middle of the sermon,

everybody's jumping up and down.

I'm sitting back wondering

"When's the Falcon game start?"

- Oh my God. You are terrible.

- When we first started going, I really liked it.

And I've...

- Oh, so you went to church for some chick.

So what happened to the chick

you used to go to church with?

- I don't know.

She's around, I guess.

- She's around, you guess?

- You don't see me diving on my phone

every time it rings, do you?

- Well, your phone's always on vibrate.

- How do you know that?

- I picked it up one time by mistake.

- By mistake.

- Yeah.

- Where was I at?

- You were in the shower.

What?

Why are you so nervous?

What can I even do?

It's not like you're my man or anything, right?

- True, true.

But I still don't see why you feel the need to check.

I mean, you can ask me anything.

I'll answer it honestly.

- You're right.

I am so sorry.

I will never do that again.

- Yeah, right.

- I'm not like that.

- Do you remember when we were talking earlier

and you asked me whose idea it was

to go to the church I was attending?

- Mm-hmm.

- I wanna be honest with you.

- Jay, you don't have to explain anything

that happened in the past.

- I was seeing someone

and she got this great job offer to New York.

- You got a girlfriend?

- No, we broke up before she left.

- So why didn't you tell me about this before?

How long were you guys together?

- Three years.

- So why are you just now telling me this?

- I don't want you to be upset.

- The only reason why you would tell me

about an ex-girlfriend is if you're still in love with her

or if you're lying to me

and you're still with her.

So which one is it?

- We broke up.

But she's coming home for Thanksgiving.

- Home?

Where's home? She live here?

- No.

She's from Atlanta.

Her family lives here.

- We just had this discussion earlier today.

Why didn't you tell me about that then, huh?

Because you wanted what you wanted tonight

and you knew that you wouldn't get it

if you were to tell me the truth, right?

- No, I didn't plan for it to go like this.

- Yes, you did it.

- Come on now.

- Come on now?

- Monet.

- Here in the bottom half of the first.

- Hey! - Hey, you.

You look great. Come on in!

- Thank you!

I can't stay long.

My ride is outside waiting.

- Ride?

Things must be working out for you.

- Thanks to you.

- Me?

I mean, we haven't spoken in weeks.

- And what about the video you did for me?

- Oh, the video that all of 100 people have seen?

- Well, someone from Safehouse Outreach saw it

and when I applied for the position,

they recognized me and hired me on the spot.

- What? - Yes.

I'm an assistant to the director.

- Oh, that's great. Congratulations!

You deserve it! - Thank you. Thank you.

There's more, but I have to go.

My director went to college with her

and she saw the video

and wants you to call her, okay?

I gotta go.

- All right. You keep doing good.

- Thank you.

Hey, listen. Let me know how that goes, okay?

- I will. - All right.

- May I?

- Yeah, why would you ask?

- Just checking.

- Can I get you something to drink?

- Do you have wine?

- Of course.

- I'll take that.

- Be right back.

Here you go.

- Thank you.

- So tell me all about New York, this new job, all of it.

- Brooklyn is lit.

All the neighborhoods, and the people,

like they're completely different,

but they're all right next door to each other.

So, yeah.

And the restaurants and the cafes,

But you spent time in Brooklyn.

You know what I'm talking about.

- Yeah, I always said if I moved to New York,

I'd probably live in Brooklyn.

- Oh, well, you had your opportunity.

Anywho, how's your mother?

- She's doing good.

Matter of fact, she asked about you.

- And what did you say?

- I told her that you got a great job offer in New York

that you just couldn't refuse.

- Did she ask you if we were together?

- I told her that we keep in contact, you know,

and that we're still friends.

- What, I've been gone for three months

and we've only spoken like three times,

today being included?

I speak to my friends a little bit more often than that.

- Well, I have called you, tried to text you,

but if you don't respond, what can I do?

- Do you do this for all your friends?

- What?

- This.

The fireplace, the low lights,

chilled wine, the soft music.

- No, I don't do this for everyone.

And as a matter of fact, I got a surprise.

Now, listen, obviously-

- Jay, I need to talk to you about something else.

To be honest with you,

I was planning on taking this

in a completely different direction.

- Before we could even talk about getting together

or considering that, you know we'd have to talk about-

- Jay, I'm in love with someone else.

- I don't know what I was expecting,

but I know I wasn't expecting that.

- I know I should have said something,

but I didn't wanna tell you over the phone,

even though I don't think that you deserve the courtesy.

- Why wouldn't I deserve the courtesy?

- I don't wanna go backwards here.

I love him and he loves me.

I didn't mean for this to happen, but it just did.

- You've been gone for less than three months.

How could you possibly have fallen in love already?

- I don't think you want me to answer that, Jay, honestly.

- Try me. Yeah, I would.

- Well what he and I have shared in three months,

you and I we never experienced in three years.

You and I, we had something.

Yeah.

But it wasn't...

It wasn't what I have now.

And what I have now

is something that I need and I want.

- That's bullshit, Sanaa.

I know you and I know how you operate.

Ain't no way you're gonna let some dude

get that close to you so quickly.

- We spent a lot of time together.

Look, I fell in love with someone else.

It happens.

People fall in love.

People fall out of love.

- So, on your mama's life,

you gonna sit there and look me in my face

and tell me that you done fell in love with some cat

in less than three months?

- Okay, we met before I moved, but like,

it wasn't anything, okay?

It wasn't anything. - Where'd you meet him?

- Does it make a difference?

- I mean, you might as well tell me.

I don't see why you feel the need

to lie to me at this point.

- I met him while I was working here.

He came to the Atlanta office for work

and, I mean, that's when I met him

but we didn't go out or anything, okay?

- But he had your number.

- I mean, we would talk about work.

I mean, that was it.

- Prostitutes and Johns are

usually the only ones down there at that time.

- What?

- So the next time you have an argument

with one of your girlfriends,

why don't you try driving around Buckhead

or maybe at least somewhere that's well lit.

- All right.

- I'm gonna get this filled for you.

- Thanks, Uncle.

- I'll get that.

- Hi, I'm Monet.

I was wondering if I could see Jay for a minute.

- Sure, come on in. - Thank you.

- Close this door.

- Thank you.

- I'm Jay's Uncle Tony.

- Hi, nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you also.

He's right in here.

- Hey.

- How are you feeling?

- I'm all right.

Just a concussion.

- Jay, I can see you're in good hands.

So I'm gonna, I'm gonna take off.

It was nice meeting you.

- Nice meeting you too.

- Thanks, Unc.

So thanks for coming by.

You wanna have a seat

or I can take your coat, you know?

- No, I'm not gonna stay long.

I just came by to check on you

and see if you needed anything.

- I'm all right.

- I have to be honest.

I wasn't even sure I was gonna

answer the phone when you called.

I wasn't sure when you were gonna hear from me again,

but I could tell from the sound of your voice

that something was really wrong.

Do you need anything?

- I'm all right, I guess.

- You need a prescription filled or?

- No, my uncle already took care of that.

- Did you eat?

- Yeah.

- Okay, well, since you don't need anything,

I guess I'll just go.

- Hey, hey, hey, hey.

I don't have everything I need.

- What do you need, Jay?

- You.

- Moving women around like chess pieces

for your enjoyment is not a need.

- I wanted to be honest with you.

I wanted to be sure I was over her

before we went any further.

- You come across as disingenuous

and you talk about being honest

after you intentionally withheld the truth?

All that matters is what Jay wants, right?

- No.

Just give me another opportunity, Monet.

- No, I'm gone.

- Monet.

- Let's get started.

All Texas licenses have to be renewed

by the end of the week.

I take it you all have the required

continuing education hours.

What is the problem?

You're all professionals.

Why do you wait till the last minute?

- Some of us have families.

- I assigned a time management module

and to date none of y'all have completed it.

If you took your career seriously,

you would have completed it

and implemented but you aren't.

- Why are you speaking to us like we're kids?

- Maybe because our customer service results

are the worst in the company.

We get more home office complaints

than any other region.

And as result, I get a call from the home office

ripping me a new one on a weekly basis.

- They send us questionnaires

to one out of every 25 policy holders.

- It doesn't matter.

Our results are the worst in the company.

- You know, I got one of those last week

from a guy who totaled out a 2002 Ford F150.

We had the value at $6,350,

but he valued it $15,000

because he put a new set of tires on it

and he got a brand new paint job.

So what do you think he's gonna say

when somebody asks him about his claim?

- You're not the only one

that settles total losses.

Let me repeat.

Our results are the worst in the company.

Fix it.

All right.

Last thing.

Take one and pass it down.

As you can see, this is a policy endorsement

that was effective the first of last month.

- So why are we just hearing about this now?

Based on this,

I told somebody something that wasn't true.

We should have known about this.

- We need to do what's required by-

- Sharon, you just sat up in here

and said we had issues with customer service.

So what does it say about customer service

when we broaden the coverage

but we can't tell them so they can take advantage of it?

- I just became aware of it myself.

That's why we're having this meeting.

- This is bullshit.

- Watch your language.

- You know, you bring us in here

and tell us how poorly of a job we're doing

like we're supposed to sit up in here and take it.

It's insulting.

- It sounds like an intentional move

from the executive office to me.

- It wasn't.

- You know, if the insurance department found out,

we could get hit with a pretty heavy fine

or maybe even be prevented from writing the policies.

This is a big effin' deal.

- It is not our job to worry about it.

That's all I have.

- I'm taking a leave of absence.

- This is a joke, right?

- No.

- Are you fucking kidding me?

You just got back from vacation.

- And I'm taking a leave of absence.

- You got a set on you, you know that?

Meet me in the conference room after lunch.

I said in the conference room after lunch.

What part of that do you not-

- I've worked here for nine years

as a senior claims specialist.

I even interned two summers here when I was in college.

I've gone along with the changes this company has made

in an effort to keep up with our competitors.

And you know what?

You owe me nine years and two summers.

Because the arrogance displayed by this company

is only eclipsed by the absurdity

and selfishness of its decision making.

And you know what?

I fear that it's contagious

and that I've taken years off my life

by breathing the air that circulates in this building.

So you know what?

I'm not giving you a two weeks notice because I quit.

- Yo, where are you going?

- I'm out, Steve.

I'll call you, man.

It's amazing what you see when you slow down

and just allow yourself to be.

- What motivated you to tell this story?

- Well, I can tell you that it wasn't planned.

I actually was headed into a convenience store.

It had already been a long day and I was tired.

And you know how it is,

I wasn't exactly in the best of moods.

And I was about to head into the convenience store

and this young woman just approached me.

That meeting turned into a job

producing special projects for CNN.

Don't ignore that little voice in your head.

That's your conscience talking to you.

Once you realize that,

the next step is to figure out

what you're supposed to do

and how you're supposed to do it.

I like to write and document what I see.

I wanna do that in a way

that informs and helps other people

because in the end,

helping other people is all that matters.
