I'm gonna love you right.

Okay?

I love you so much.

Hey you.

You looking good today.

Hey.

So which one should I go with?

The blue or the peach?

The blue.

Blue it is.

You know you missed a little...

You missed a little tiny spot right there.

Thank you.

That's what I'm here for.

Eat.

Okay, Marcus. I'm gone.

What?

No kiss for daddy?

Why don't you go upstairs and fix up your makeup?

Marcus knows best.

Oh indeed.

Hey, girl.

Girl, I told you not to call me until after eight

when you know I'm out the house.

Look, Marcus does not like you or trust you.

Girl, fuck him.

Hard to do.

You know, I'm surprised you're up.

Isn't today your off day?

And it's your day off?

Girl, I told you I had an appointment. Remember?

Yeah, that's right. You did.

Anyways did you call the lawyer?

No.

You said I needed evidence.

I don't have any.

It's not like I can pay for a lawyer.

He checks the bank account every hour.

Well, we could just catch the house on fire

with him in it.

Girl, the goal is freedom

not to go from one prison to the next.

Besides, I mean, he's been keeping his word lately.

Three weeks being faithful.

I'm sure his mama will be so proud.

You should get him a trophy.

Girl, he'd probably beat me with it

and made me drink my tears.

Look, I'm gonna let you go.

I gotta head to this beauty supply.

Alright, call me later?

I will.

What are you doing?

Jesus, Marcus, what is wrong with you?

If you wasn't so busy scrolling

on that goddamn phone of yours,

you'd be paying attention to your surroundings.

You know, one of these days

somebody gonna walk up on you and kill you

if you don't stop paying attention.

Can you move outta way, please?

I need to get some makeup for work.

Can I do that?

No, the fuck you can't.

You didn't tell me about this little rendezvous

to the store before work.

That makes you a liar.

You see, you'll tell me just enough

and then you leave the rest out.

So you don't trust me, huh, Marcus?

Really?

What a joke.

This'll do.

Marcus knows best.

I'm gonna take that.

And this one as well.

After you leave from here, I want you to go home.

You already know I'm running late for work.

Not today you're not.

Are you trying to make me.

You know you are looking.

I like you to have a job.

How you doing?

Well, I'll be damned.

Angel?

Wow. It's been a long time. How are you?

I am great.

I'm just out here picking up stuff for my baby girl's hair.

Oh, okay.

You look good per usual.

Oh, well, thank you. I appreciate that.

Where's my manners?

I'm out here with my baby girl as well.

Hi, nice to meet you, Angel, was it?

Mm.

Marcus, honey, I need you to pay the lady so we can go.

Okay.

Here, baby. Go ahead and take that.

You were always one of the good ones.

Well, what can I say?

Mama knows best, right?

She sure does.

So that daughter of yours,

she's probably just as cute as her mama.

Wouldn't you like to know?

I would love to know.

Marcus, I'm ready.

Look, it was definitely nice seeing you.

I got some errands to run, so maybe I see you later.

Maybe.

It was so nice to meet you, Angel.

You stay in touch.

You know I will.

♪ You came in smelling like perfume ♪

How'd you like Angel?

Yeah, Angel cute.

She fine, ain't she?

She got that type of pussy that be calling my name.

You know what it be saying?

You be saying to us like, Marcus, Marcus,

come hit her from the back, Marcus.

Come eat my pussy, Marcus.

And I ain't gonna hold you.

I wanted to. No cap.

What the hell is wrong with you?

Gimme the damn phone so I can call your job

and let 'em know you ain't coming in.

Give it to me.

What's the passcode?

Kiss my ass.

That doesn't sound like the passcode.

You know, you shouldn't be talking like that.

Pretty little thing like you.

You not gonna give it to me?

Fine then. Lose your license.

See if I care.

But you will listen to me.

One way or another.

Marcus?

Yes, my love.

I want a divorce.

You want a what?

You heard me.

You don't mean that.

You love this lifestyle too much for you to leave me.

Besides, if you do, you know you get nothing, right?

Look at your face.

You look pathetic.

Let me make this clear though.

You're not gonna get this house, none of my money

and you're wasting your time.

Okay, pumpkin?

You know your mama raised a bitch.

You know, I was thinking the same thing about you.

Now, who's the bitch?

Look at you with those sunglasses on indoors and at night.

You want me to kill him?

Because I know a guy with some poison.

I promise you I.

No, Sam, I don't.

I told him his mama raised a bitch.

I know that's right.

Not one line detected, okay?

You know, the?

I'm not doing that bullshit again, Jordan.

Please?

No.

For me?

Happy?

Now that you checked in, can we eat?

Okay. My budget is $40.

$40?

Girl, don't worry about it.

I'll take care.

No.

Look, Marcus checks the account

and if I don't use the money,

he's gonna assume that I'm cheating.

Girl, it's never that serious, okay?

Are y'all ladies ready to order?

I will take the ahi tuna salad and.

And to drink?

A water with lemon.

I would like two steaks with smothered mashed potatoes

and a side of shrimp cocktail.

Of course. And to drink?

Can I get two glass.

One, please?

Two glasses of Chardonnay, please.

Okay, I get this in for you ladies, okay?

Now you know I can't drink that.

Girl, I got the two glasses for me

because I'm stressed out about you, okay?

Don't be.

You not gonna answer that, are you?

Can you get one moment of peace, Jordan?

Look, this is my husband.

Yes. I'm gonna answer.

Hello?

- Thank you. - Marcus?

Did you get the photo?

Wonderful.

May I go back to eating now?

Thank you.

I love you too.

May I go back to eating, please?

What is even that?

What are you even doing, Jordan?

Jordan?

Jordan?

Hello? Earth to Jordan.

Where did you just go?

Nowhere.

I, I'm just enjoying this calm, that's all.

What are you so afraid of, Jordan?

You could just leave his ass.

He's fricking crazy.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Look, if I leave, he'll kill me, okay?

He told me so the other day at the Beauty Supply.

And, Sam, I love him.

He's all I've ever known since I was 17.

And I, I know it looks bad,

but when it's good, it's really good.

I don't understand.

I guess I...

I guess I just hope that maybe one day he's gonna change.

So, so, because he's this faithful guy now,

that's, that's the hope you holding on to?

Look. He's no longer cheating, okay?

That's a step in the right direction.

Oh, he just uses your face as a punching bag.

He's such a man, Jordan.

I wish there was a damn clause in that prenup.

He made me read all 400 pages three times

just so I would know that he was the man,

and there was nothing I could do about it.

I don't even know why you would sign something like that.

Because I was young, okay?

I was in love.

I didn't care about his money.

I just wanted to marry him.

But there is, there is one last resort.

Okay?

Domestic abuse.

So, sweetie, why are we here with a black eye?

A caveat is somebody has to file a report

and it can't be me or anybody else that I know.

Anonymously?

Yeah, in the real world.

But we're talking about Marcus here.

He has the whole police force behind him.

Damn.

I knew he was down low. I knew it.

You don't get the vibes?

You can't tell?

I could sense it the whole time.

Okay, can we eat?

A little sip won't hurt.

Baby?

I'm in here, babe.

Yes.

I knew it.

I knew it.

I'm home.

Hey, babe.

How was your game?

Oh, man, we won again, babe.

Yes.

Mm. I know you're happy.

Oh, you know I am.

Mm. You smell good.

Thank you.

Why don't you come over here so I can massage your feet.

That sounds really nice.

I had such a good time at the restaurant with Sam.

Thank you, baby.

I really needed it.

That's what's up.

I'm glad you did, baby. You deserved it.

Thank you.

That feels great.

You got that receipt?

Oh, yep.

18.

I had an ahi tuna salad and a water with lemon.

Mm.

That's good, baby. That's good.

Mm, Marcus. Baby, that's too tight.

You sure that's all you had?

Yes, $40 plus tip.

You know when you were gone,

I took the liberty of getting you something.

Here you go.

You forgot to mention that steak

and shrimp that you had too.

You had me followed?

Even though I checked in and sent you a picture.

You're really fucking crazy.

Because your dumb ass friend

don't know how to mine her business. That's why.

She was just.

Man, set your fonky ass down.

You fine, well kept, well fed.

Always in Gucci and gold.

You forgot about the beautiful

purple bruises to go with it.

Thank you so much, Marcus.

Baby, come here.

You know what I wish?

I wish with every fiber in my being

that when your father asked me if I was sure,

that I actually listened

because clearly he was trying to warn me.

Truly remarkable, Marcus.

You wanna know what I wish?

I don't give a fuck.

I wish.

I wish that you were fucking listening.

Woo. Hey, hey, home run.

Now I want you to say I'm a liar and no one believes it.

Repeat after me, okay?

Say it.

I'm a liar and no one believes me.

Say it again.

I'm a liar.

And no one believes me.

So you can thank your little friend

for them scars that you have and you tell 'em next time.

You heard, baby?

♪ Yes, Jesus loves me ♪

♪ For the Bible says so ♪

Baby, as God is my witness,

you have to learn how to talk to me.

Now, you know, I don't mean to hit you like this,

but if I don't discipline you, baby,

you won't know what to say and how to say it.

You know I love you.

I don't mean to be so mean.

Hey, this is a big house.

Yeah, he's got little dick syndrome,

and I think he on the down low.

Not on the down low with a little dick?

Yeah.

I'm just worried about her.

She says he's not cheating no more,

but I just don't believe anything his ass got to say.

And every time I see her, she's got bruises on her face.

So you really think that this is a good idea

of me popping up like this?

I mean, is Marcus gonna jump out of a bush or something?

No, his ass is at work.

And it's the only way.

If she knew that you were over here,

it's no way she would wanna see us.

But is he gonna be alright with all of this?

Yeah, he's Mr. Perfect.

He's a superhero.

He just wants to be the perfect husband.

Alright.

Alright, I guess.

This seems nice.

Girl, what are you? Seven?

Get off my car.

What are you doing?

Okay. Damn.

But seriously, you think she gonna be

alright with me needing a place to stay?

She might be.

What the hell is this?

Jordan?

I told you this wasn't a good idea.

You damn right.

You need to leave now.

Sam, you got some nerve.

Girl, she came here with me and I'm not leaving,

so she's staying.

What is this about?

I need somewhere to stay, sis.

Am I supposed to care?

Yes, Sam. You wanna try?

I care about you.

Every time I see you have bruises on your face,

and I know you not leaving him.

Marcus was right about you.

You need to learn to mind your damn business.

Sam, look, she clearly doesn't want our help, okay?

And I knew I shouldn't agree to come here.

You right. So leave.

Marcus hates me.

He doesn't care about being the perfect husband

when I'm around.

I can't save you Jordan.

Oh, but the sister who left me

because she was jealous can?

Please be for real.

Look, I told you this wasn't gonna work.

And, Jordan, sweetie, I'm not jealous of you.

Look at you. A hot damn mess.

Got all this house, that ring.

That shit don't mean nothing.

That man got you parading around here with bruises

and busted lips and I'm supposed to be jealous?

Okay, whatever, Renee.

So what? I'm supposed to move her in?

Yes.

Marcus cares more about being perfect than beating your ass.

And at least you'll have a little bit of time

to get your shit together.

In case you forgot.

Marcus likes his space to beat my ass.

Look, you wasted your time calling her

and you wasted your time coming here.

Marcus cares more about being perfect

than beating your ass.

Yeah, but he does love me.

Look, it's not gonna work.

Please?

Jordan, can you just try?

Fine.

Look, you gotta leave.

I'll call Marcus.

Okay.

Come on.

I hope this shit works.

Oh, and if he hits me, I'm gonna kill his ass.

You'll be alright.

Look, what's our story, okay?

We gotta get this shit airtight

because if he smell any bullshit

he gonna beat my ass again.

Just say I lost my job and I needed a place to stay.

Just keep it simple.

Alright, but just let me do all the talking, okay?

Yeah, whatever.

Can't believe I agreed to this.

Me neither.

Shut up.

Well, hello, beautiful wife of mine.

Hey, baby.

Hold on. Lemme put you on speaker phone.

Alright, go ahead.

Hi, how are you?

Just finishing up a meeting.

Everything okay over there?

Yeah, I kind of need to talk to you about something.

Jordan, this better be important.

You're calling me in the busiest time of the day.

I know it, but it's important, okay?

Oh.

Renee

Renee?

Renee, your sister?

Yeah.

Renee needs a place to stay.

She lost her job.

Look, we'll talk about this over dinner, alright?

Okay.

The problem is she's kind of already here with me.

You know I don't like surprises.

I know.

And, and look, I was just as surprised as you

when I pulled up and saw her in our driveway.

She called an Uber.

The three of us can talk about it over dinner, alright?

Tonight.

Okay, yeah.

Thank you, baby.

I, I love you.

So you think he really bought that?

Look, we gonna have to sell this shit at dinner.

Come on.

And don't be dragging that across my floor.

So my wife tells me that you lost your job

and you don't have a place to stay.

Mm. Yeah.

So I betted on a team to lose.

They won.

And so I lost all of the savings that I had.

And Murphy's Law of course I lost my job right after.

Mm. So you are a gambler?

Obviously not a very good one.

So who'd your bet against?

The Hawks.

See, that's where you messed up at.

You know that's his team, girl.

Oh, okay.

So what do you do?

I was a supervisor at Sunrise Nursing home.

Oh, so you're a nurse too?

Oh no. Absolutely not.

God, no. No.

Taking care of people has never been

on my list of things to do.

40 with no husband and kids.

That's on purpose.

Yeah, we're very opposite.

Well, in that case, should fit right in.

Did my wife tell you how strict I am?

She didn't.

No, she didn't give me the details,

but she did tell me that you like your space

and that she wasn't sure if you were gonna let me stay

for a while.

That is true.

I do like my own space,

but I'm usually working out of the office,

so I don't see it being a problem

with you staying for about a month or so.

Thank you, baby.

Marcus.

Yeah.

Look at my baby.

You know, every time I watch you and look at you,

you always remind me of why I married you.

You know that, right?

Can I do you back for you?

You think you slick, don't you now, sweetheart?

What?

She's not gonna save you.

Marcus, what are you talking about now?

Yeah.

You think you're smarter than me, don't you?

But you not.

But I'm gonna play your little game.

Just a minute.

Be right there.

Oh, hey.

Hey.

I just needed some towels.

Well, if you look there to your right,

that's our linen closet.

You'll find the towels there.

Oh, duh. They would be in there. Yes.

Is there anything else that you need before we go to bed?

I just wanted to tell you guys thank you again

for allowing me to stay here

until I figure out my situation.

No problem.

And you remember the next time you make a bet,

call me first.

I will.

I will.

No worries.

We happy to help a family member, you know?

Thank you.

Thanks a lot.

I can see where your sister gets her beauty from.

You're very gorgeous.

Good night.

You take care.

You too.

Hey you. Where you guys headed?

Hey, we are going to the gym.

Yep, baby. The Hidden Gym. Remember?

I told you about it last night?

You said it was cool.

Yeah, I remember that.

But I, I ain't know you meant like today as in today today.

I thought you meant like another day.

No, today.

Gosh, I really had my mind set on some,

some errands I was gonna do with you

but if you gotta go you gotta go.

You go ahead and go.

I'll drop her off once I'm done with the errands.

It shouldn't take too long though.

Matter of fact, I'll even call the gym

and let 'em know that you're coming,

so there won't be no problems.

But, baby, she doesn't even have a car.

She does now.

Gimme your car keys.

Ah.

Here you go.

Okay.

Well, I guess I'll see you down there.

Have a good workout.

Thanks.

Are you stupid or dumb, mm?

I'm sorry, Marcus, but please, please.

You must not have a brain inside that head of yours, huh?

Please, Marcus, I'm sorry.

And you said you wanna be a doctor?

- No, no. - Get the.

Come here.

You know the penalty for this, don't you?

You gonna have to fix this.

And you been not drip nothing on my rug either.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Now you go to the bathroom and you wash up.

And don't even think about leaving this house.

I thought you said you were gonna take me to the gym?

I lied, but I'm leaving though.

Probably to find somebody else

that could suck it better than you.

It ain't cheating, is it?

I was cleaning up.

Cleaning up?

Where's your key?

It's in the car.

Where's my gym bag? You seen it?

What do you need a gym bag for?

I was gonna check on your sister

to see if she made it in safe.

Didn't you call?

Look, I'm sure she's okay.

Yeah, I just, just wanted to make sure

she ain't had no issue.

What the fuck am I explaining this shit to you for?

What you need to be doing is getting that hair together

and getting these clothes fixed 'cause you look like shit.

Anybody else needs to be going to the gym,

it's your fat, ugly ass.

Yeah. Well, I will as soon as my husband allows me to.

Here.

Go ahead.

Wouldn't wanna keep Renee waiting, right?

Can't miss out on an opportunity to show her

how much of a good guy you are.

Hey.

Hey.

What happened to you earlier?

I thought Marcus was bringing you to the gym.

Girl, his idea of errands was me on my knees.

Oh.

What you cooking?

So you gonna go change, right?

Why?

What's wrong with these?

No, just no.

Look, Marcus will be home any minute now.

Can you just go change please?

Jordan, they are just shorts, girl.

Relax.

Yeah, but your ass is half out.

So it's my problem that your husband looks?

Is that what we're doing?

Really?

What y'all in here talking about?

Jordan thinks that I need need to go and.

Hey, let my wife speak, right?

What's up, babe?

It's not that big of a deal, Marcus.

You sure about that?

I mean, must I remind you that this is your sister,

let alone our guest?

Okay. I told her to change her shorts.

It's disrespectful.

I could see that.

But does that really bother you 'cause it don't bother me.

Of course it doesn't bother you

'cause her ass is hanging out.

Look, Marcus. Yes. It bothers me, okay?

Can you just have my back for once, please?

Renee?

Mm?

Your shorts are fine, but it does bother my wife,

so can you please change respectfully?

Oh my God. What? Are we in middle school?

If I knew it was gonna be like this, I wouldn't have come.

But you know what?

I'ma change my shorts.

Whoa.

You can go pack your shit and be a hoe somewhere else.

Hey, hey, relax.

Don't tell me to relax.

She walking around here with her box hanging out

in front of my husband in my house. No.

Wait, fuck all that.

Why ain't dinner done?

A man can't come home to a nice hot meal?

No, I gotta come home and play referee.

Okay. I'm sorry, Marcus.

I, I got distracted, but I, I can go out

and grab you something.

You useless.

I want teriyaki.

Go pick it up now.

You're not gonna come with me?

I don't wanna drive by myself.

What the fuck I look like coming with you.

You ain't five.

You a big girl now.

Go do what I said.

Okay.

A man can't even come home.

I just wanna chill, sit down and maybe scratch my balls.

That's too much to ask?

This motherfucker, man.

Is this better?

Oh, where did Little Miss Insecure though?

She went to go get me something to eat.

Y'all in here arguing and she done burnt up

the damn dinner over here.

Well, in that case I'll ask you.

Are these appropriate?

They alright, but I ain't the one

you need to be asking though.

You need to be asking my wife that.

You want a beer or something?

No. I only drink water.

You want my wife to kill me, don't you?

Maybe.

What?

Yeah, and get me the Hawaiian poke bowl.

She'll be having the same thing I'm having.

And hurry up and stop fucking around.

You are a wild one, ain't you?

But you two months too late.

You see, if it was back then.

I would've yolked you up like this

and made sweet, sweet love to you

repeatedly over and over and over again.

But I love my wife.

I love my wife, I love my wife.

Your sister, Jordan.

Well, that's too bad.

This bitch trying to set me up.

It's alright though.

I got something for her ass.

You better stop fucking with me.

Marcus, I haven't said two words to you.

I know what you're trying to do. I know.

You trying to set me up.

Set you up?

Set you up how?

Renee.

My sister?

You let her into our house.

Yeah, only because you said it was okay.

Look, she would be homeless right now

if you didn't say she could stay.

Well, she tried to seduce your boy.

She did what?

When?

When you went to go get some food.

Okay, so first she's walking around

in a little booty shorts

and now you trying to tell me she made a move?

Look, look, look, look, look.

I handled it, alright?

Now don't go starting anything.

I don't want her feeling awkward around here.

You don't want her feeling awkward?

Really?

Would you just lay back down,

so we could finish watching the movie?

Please?

Thank you.

No, she.

Renee?

Babe?

Come on, man.

Renee, get your slut ass up.

First, you around here wearing booty shorts.

Now you trying to seduce my husband, bitch?

Marcus, you really ran your mouth?

Yeah, he told me, bitch.

No, he's the bitch.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Both of y'all calm down, alright?

I knew you was jealous.

You just couldn't help yourself, could you?

Girl, whatever.

You know what?

You could kiss my fat ass.

Hey. Hey. Come on babe, babe.

Hey now look, you sit your fat ass down.

Hey, you calm down.

I'm calm.

Now, listen.

Hey, hey, hey.

Fuck you, Jordan.

Fuck you too.

Look, we gonna get this straight right now.

I don't want you.

I love my wife.

We may not have the perfect relationship, but I'm trying.

I want her slut ass out this house now.

She not going nowhere.

She doesn't have a place to stay, Jordan.

Fuck you, Marcus.

Thank you, Marcus.

Bye.

Shit.

You ran your damn mouth.

Gosh.

What did I get myself into?

Hey, girl. Talk to me.

Girl, I don't even know what it do.

I mean everything started off okay

and then Renee just got too comfortable.

No.

Yes.

Well, she walking around the house in booty shorts.

And then when I asked her to go put clothes on,

she act like I'm the one that's tripping.

What?

She shouldn't even leave the room like that.

Oh my God.

Yeah. Well, you the one that got me into this mess

with her in the first place.

I was just trying to protect you.

And I told you a long time ago.

And Renee is not to be trusted.

And I damn sure don't trust Marcus.

That's why I been hiding cameras around the house.

You sneaky bitch.

Yeah, I'ma divorce his ass.

He hasn't hit me though.

I mean, since she's been there with that guy.

Choked me out a couple of times though.

I thought I was gonna die.

Did you get that on camera?

You know what?

As a matter of fact, I did.

You think we could use that after the fact?

I don't know.

But you know, he would probably kill himself

just to get some sympathy.

He's so weak.

I started a new bank account.

Set it up so that 10% of my check could go in.

You know, like a little nest egg.

Do you think Marcus will notice?

I don't know.

Shit, I just wanna put some holes on him.

Alright, girl, I'm gonna let you go.

I gotta hurry up and get here to this grocery store

until Marcus gets home.

Okay, girl.

I'll talk to you later.

Hey, Marcus.

Hey. What up?

You like the dough?

I do.

So how's the job hunt going?

It's been about a month.

Well, you know I've been applying,

but nobody's been calling me back, so.

Have you been following up?

You know, going into places?

Babe, they don't do that anymore.

However, I can pull a few strings at my job.

Mm. Could you please?

I have tried every nursing home in Atlanta.

Yeah. Well, my firm is looking

for a new records keeper, so.

Okay. She doesn't even know how to do anything legal.

I know how to dress cute.

And that's something new.

I would love that.

Well, consider it done then.

Thank you, Marcus.

Congratulations.

That means that with this new job,

you'll be getting your check in about what? Three weeks.

Marcus, is there any way you can give her an advance

so she can get out faster?

That doesn't work like that.

Can you give her the damn money or not?

What the hell is your problem?

My problem is you screwing my husband.

Oh yeah. You quiet now, huh?

Marcus, I want a divorce.

Are you delusional?

What's wrong with you? Mm?

You always know how to ruin a good thing.

Here it is talking about your sister getting a job

and you wanna ruin it with your craziness.

What's wrong with you?

I'm gonna let you know off the gate

that you just a crazy bitch.

That's what it is.

No one is doing it to your sister.

You are unbelievable.

You really think that I'm jealous of you?

Jordan, I came to you for help

because I needed a place to stay until I got on my feet.

Girl, I ain't seen you put in one damn application,

pick up and make a phone call or nothing.

But you know what I have seen you do?

I seen you riding around town in our Benz,

checking out our exclusive gym.

And then on top of that,

when I come in from working all day,

you sitting a little too damn close to my husband.

Oh my God.

You really are crazy.

Crazy?

Yes.

I got you.

What the fuck?

Fuck you and her too.

Look, you need to calm your ass down, alright?

I want her gone by tomorrow.

Give her the damn money.

Look, if you want her out so bad,

why don't you front the money then?

You know damn well you don't let me have access to any

of our money with your controlling ass.

Just give her the money, Marcus.

Jordan?

Damn, when I get my first check,

I promise you I will be gone.

You think I wanna be in this toxic hellhole

with your insecure crazy ass.

I got your crazy.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

What the fuck are you doing?

- Stop. - Get off of me.

You happy now?

You done with your little temper tantrum, huh?

I am now.

I want you out by tomorrow.

You know you done fucked up, right?

Marcus, let me see.

Are you.

Don't...

Don't touch me.

She doesn't know.

When I tell you to go, you leave.

What the fuck is this?

What is what?

Divorce papers?

Divorce fucking papers?

Marcus, wait, wait.

Get off of me.

I told your ass you ain't getting nothing, didn't I?

Get off of me.

Marcus, you cheated on me.

You cheated on me for my sister.

You abused me, isolated me.

Shut your crying ass up.

I told your ass you weren't getting nothing.

You a nurse that would never be a doctor.

The only thing you ever did right was marry me

and now you feel like you can leave me.

Ain't nobody gonna believe you.

I don't need to say a thing.

It doesn't change what you did, Marcus.

It doesn't change the truth.

The truth of the fucking matter

is I gave you everything and you're ungrateful

and you're useless.

And now you feel like you could divorce me.

I will break your motherfucking neck.

- You hear me? - Renee.

Marcus, get off of her.

Get your ass outta here.

I'm calling the police.

No, Renee, don't.

Get the fuck off.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

It's just nothing.

Certainly nothing to be jealous of.

Jordan, I told you I am not jealous.

Then why did you fuck him?

We didn't have sex.

Don't lie to me.

Jordan, I swear we didn't.

Look, I know that it is hard for you to trust a man

who treats you the way that he does.

But, Jordan, I would not betray you.

I wish I could believe you, Renee, but I know.

I told you not to marry that man.

He crossed the line, Jordan. Not me.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because daddy did the same thing to me.

I got sick and that's why I left.

I was scared to tell Marcus no,

and I knew that you wouldn't believe me.

No, no. That's not fair, Renee.

But it's true, Jordan.

I am so sorry.

Sorry don't fix it.

But I do gotta thank you for something though.

For what?

Come here.

Hey, Marcus.

Hey. What up? You like the dough?

I do.

Come here.

For helping me get my freedom.

I'll just get my stuff and I'll leave tonight.

Where you going?

Move, Marcus.

Weren't worth it anyway.

Wow.

Oh, oh, boy.

Hey, Marcus.

Hey, what up?

You like the dough?

You like what you see?

You can't use this.

I absolutely can.

Prenup literally says evidence.

I'ma fucking kill you. You hear me?

It's been the rod left the rest of my life in prison

before I let you fucking do this to me.

Come here.

Go ahead and let him out.

That's the real Marcus.

And when you try to hide behind your smiles

and your nice suits.

Marcus, just let me go.

Please just let me go.

Look, you can have Renee or whatever hoes you want.

Look, I don't care. I just wanna be done.

You think it's that fucking easy, don't you?

Girl, I would destroy this tape and then I win.

That's it.

Back to the ghetto you go.

Oh, you think that's the only copy?

You know what, Marcus?

Break the TV, tear the house down.

Look, kill me if you want to.

It don't change the truth though.

You think you're smarter than me, huh?

Real classy, Marcus.

I run this motherfucker.

You hear me?

Marcus?

Marcus, baby?

Marcus.

Here, honey. Drink this.

What the fuck?

Drink up.

Why it's so bright in here?

What happened?

You, you beat my ass and then you left.

You came back and beat my ass some more.

Broke the TV and then you signed the papers.

Signed the papers?

The divorce papers.

That's crazy.

Why did I do that?

Drink your water.

And you might wanna call a doctor.

Probably need to start some medication.

I don't need no medication, nothing.

Look, I had a hangover, right?

I just, I just need some sleep.

Nope.

No, you need medication because you know my sister,

the one you cheated on me with, she has HIV.

Oh, that got you up, didn't it?

So what you trying to say?

I'm saying drink your water, Marcus.

You know every decision, every reckless move.

I mean, Marcus, you cheated on me

for somebody you barely even knew.

So yes, you have HIV.

You should go see a doctor.

You liar.

Okay.

Do whatever it takes, you know, for you to deal with things,

but I'm not lying.

Nah, nah, nah, man. Fuck you, Jordan.

Fuck me.

You still have it?

Drink your water, Marcus.

And call your doctor.

Oh, better yet.

Call a doctor that doesn't know you.

That way you can preserve

that perfect little image of yours.

You have a dead sister when I find her.

I don't really care what you do.

Although I will say, I don't think

you're ever gonna see Renee again.

I mean that's what she does.

She shows up, causes chaos, and then just disappears.

Oh, Marcus, don't cry.

Oh, Marcus, you are such a coward, yeah.

Call your doctor. Okay, pumpkin?

Oh, I almost forgot.

That's for you.

Don't forget.

Call your doctor.

♪ You say baby- ♪

So, finally shit hit the fan, huh?

Yep. She left last night.

Bam.

I'm sorry.

I thought she was gonna be able to protect you.

I mean she did for the most part.

She was a distraction.

It's just a double-edged sword,

'cause I didn't expect her to sleep with my husband.

She did gimme the evidence that I needed, so.

So you got everything you needed?

You won.

Did I?

Don't feel like a win.

Not immediately, but it will.

By the way, what are you gonna do with all that house?

You gonna sell it, gonna stay in it?

I'm gonna burn it down.

Okay. That's an idea.

We, we could do that.

Or, but let's not.

I'm just playing though.

I don't know.

Right now I just wanna take a moment

and breathe in this new sense of normalcy, you know?

10 years of being abused and controlled,

it's not an easy habit to break.

Well, you got me.

You can stay here with me.

Really?

Yes.

And I need somebody help me fold these clothes.

I know there was a catch.

There's always one.

Alright, can you sign there?

Yeah.

Alright.

Well, we're all done, Jordan.

Okay.

How long before everything's finalized?

So you'll have full access to the funds within 24 hours.

He has 72 hours to come

and get his belongings from the home.

In the meantime, get a hotel, take a vacation.

Give yourself some space.

You know, I think I'ma do just that.

Vacation sounds great.

Lemme walk you out.

- You raggedy bitch. - You raggedy bitch.

You don't deserve this house.

You don't deserve any of the money

that you was awarded, but you are right.

I do have HIV and I will find Renee

and I'm gonna kill that hoe or make her life a living hell.

She'll never work again.

I can promise you that.

But since I have HIV, you do too.

I'm on prep.

So if I were you, I'll go ahead and get tested.

But as God is my witness,

- I'll see you again. - I'll see you again.

Are you alright?

What was that?

Look, I completely forgot you we're coming by tonight.

I was having a moment.

Then they're releasing 10 years worth of trauma

and you knocked and everything just came right back.

Well, it's only been 72 hours

since everything got finalized.

It's gonna take a little bit longer than that

to get rid of that trauma.

And you are right.

Look, girl, he took everything.

Well, I did bring the sage to get rid

of all the little dick energy.

Lighter?

Thank you.

Has he called?

You know he did, like 12 times.

I wanted to go down to the law firm and show my ass.

Girl, yous free now.

You ain't gotta deal with none of that.

You right. I's free.

You's free.

Do you have a speaker?

I have exactly what you see.

I told you he took everything.

Damn. Okay.

Well, are you ready?

Mm.

Okay, I'm ready.

- Okay. - Mm.

Breathe in peace and love.

Breathe out little dick energy.

Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. I'm gonna be serious.

Be serious.

- Serious. - Okay.

Breathe in freedom, love,

and breathe out the down low demon.

The low down demon.

Amen, okay?

You are free.

Let it go.

Let it go.

I'm sorry, girl.

I don't know why I'm getting so emotional.

It's not like I miss him.

But if I do, I mean, is that a bad thing?

Well, you were with him for a long time.

12 years of being with a bitch

will do that to you.

You're not gonna call him are you?

I mean, but what if I get lonely?

You call me.

You gonna take care of me like he did?

I love you so much, Jordan but hell no.

You gonna have to take your down to the Lion's Den.

They got a sale.

50% off for everything that vibrate.

Nope. See, I need the real thing

because Marcus was Mr. Marcus, okay?

Okay. You had too much wine, okay?

You drinking too much.

You heard that?

I'll get it.

I can hear y'all laughing.

Oh, she can hear us.

Open the door, Jordan.

What do you want?

Damn, I just wanna talk.

Talk about what?

Excuse me?

Girl, can you move?

Dang.

Renee, haven't you done enough?

Respectfully, Sam.

This is between me and my sister.

It has nothing to do with you.

Haven't you done enough?

What is this?

Just drink it.

What the hell is this shit?

You don't have to drink it.

- It's disgusting. - We got some water.

Do y'all?

Because it looks like Marcus wiped this motherfucker out.

I mean he did, but.

What you doing?

I was just coming to see how you were doing.

See if you were good.

Does she seem like she was good?

Okay. I know I fucked up.

- You did. - But wasn't that the plan?

Isn't that what you wanted?

I mean, yes.

Oh, as a matter of fact, I have something for you.

It's in the car.

One second.

Oh, gifts and surprises, okay?

I don't know what she gonna do with all this house.

You gonna move in with me.

Don't do it, girl.

She don't let you wear booty shorts.

She had a husband.

Did she though?

Okay. Y'all come here and starting shit.

Oh, you heard that?

Don't let have to whoop your ass again.

Girl, you barely even touched me.

Cut it out.

Now what is this anyway?

Open it.

Holy shit.

Girl.

100, 200, three?

Girl, a hundred thousand dollars?

And that my friends is how you set

a motherfucker up.

My God.

And I couldn't have done it without you, baby.

Thank you.

Yo, I'm so glad this is over.

Y'all know he calling me, right?

What?

Talking about you was right.

I do got HIV but, bitch, that mean you got it too.

No, nigga. I was on prep.

Oh my God, y'all.

I cannot believe it worked.

Oh, I can believe it.

He's such a hoe.

Mm. That part.

But a hundred thousand dollars.

Yes?

Dr. J?

Mr. Ravi's, ready for you in room 11.

Okay, I'll be right there.
