Robin, it's 7:08.

You gonna sleep all day?

Okay.

I'm up.

Got a business meeting this morning, so I'll have my energy drink for breakfast.

- Don't forget the straw. - Yes, sweetie.

- Knock, knock. - What can I do for you, Harold?

Just thought I'd come by, see how you're doing.

Mmm. You look a little worried.

It's 8:04. Denise still hasn't made it in yet.

I need my reports at 9:00.

I just saw Denise getting off the elevator.

I am sorry I am late.

Hey, beautiful.

Hi, Harold.

Denise, it's 8:04.

I need you here in the office...

not at 8:01, not at 8:02...

not at 8:03 and definitely not 8:04...

but at 8:00 sharp.

Yes, sir, Mr. Washington. You're right.

- Just don't let it happen again. - Yes, sir.

Who is that?

Uh... that's, um- that's my cousin Tina.

Tell her to come in so we can meet her.

Yes, yes. We would like to meet her.

We would like to meet her. Hmm?

Um, Tina Simpson, this is my boss, David Washington.

He's our head of software development.

And this is our regional marketing coordinator Harold Lyons.

Tina just relocated here from Philly.

She's starting a new job across the street with Waldorf and Goodman.

Ms. Simpson, welcome to Memphis.

- I hope you enjoy the city and your new job. - Thank you. I believe I will.

Yes, enjoy the city.

And if you need anything, you give me a call.

I'm in the book.

So, good luck with everything.

I'm sure I'll be seeing you around.

And by the way, Denise won't be running late again, will she?

I promise she won't be late again, at least not on my account.

- Thank you, sir.

Harold.

- I am so tired of teaching these bad children.

And before you say "They're too young to be bad," let me tell you-

evil isn't just for adolescents anymore.

- Mm-mmm. - Okay, what happened now, Jill?

Remember Nicky Molasky, that little monster I told you about last week...

- who put the bubble gum in the little girl's hair? - Yeah.

Well, today he did it to me.

And when I caught him doing it, he took off running.

I had to chase him all around the classroom while the entire class laughed hysterically.

Real funny for them. Not so much for me.

- Then you know what the little bastard did? - No. Tell us.

He climbed into a locker and got stuck.

- So what'd you do? - Yeah, what?

Well, I'll tell you, I had half a mind to leave his little butt in there.

- But I didn't want to lose my job.

I love teaching. I do.

So I called the custodian and he managed to pry him out of there.

Okay. Well, that's good, right?

Oh, yeah, except when I told him I was gonna tell his daddy what a bad little boy he'd been...

the mini juvenile delinquent peed himself!.

- Wait, wait, wait.

He was so afraid of his father that he actually peed himself?

- Yes!. - Who's his daddy?

David?

- Ohh! - Ooh!

- Okay, okay! Let's leave David out of this.

Can I get you ladies anything else?

- Uh, no, I'm fine. - Thank you.

Hey- Hey, you guys, what time is it?

Mmm. 7:42.

Damn! Late.

Yeah, I forgot you have a curfew.

That shit ain't funny, Jill. Bye!

Think he's got her on a pretty tight leash.

Yeah. Too tight, if you ask me.

You're late.

Hey, baby.

We were just having a little fun and I lost track of time.

You're still late.

You said you'd be home at 8:00. It's now 8:03.

You know it takes 27 minutes to get home from Onix.

You should have left at 7:33, not 7:36.

My father always said...

when people disrespect your time...

they're disrespecting you.

Are you trying to disrespect me, Robin?

No.

Look, I'm sorry I'm late.

- And you're right. I should have left earlier. - Damn right I'm right.

It won't happen... again.

It shouldn't have happened at all.

Just remember what I said...

and don't disrespect me like that again.

Yes, David.

Do you like this lifestyle?

Yes. Of course.

And don't you appreciate all that I'm doing for you?

Of course, David.

Look, I'm ready to start a family.

My father is ready to be a grandfather and l-

I don't want to disappoint him.

Starting a family means getting married.

I know that sounds a little old-fashioned to you...

but that's the way I was brought up.

Look around.

This isn't the home of two people who...

shacked up and squirted out some bastard child.

I want to have our children with my name, my father's name.

Baby, you know I love you...

and I need you in my life.

Good. Then what you're saying is, you want to make me happy.

Then where are we on our wedding plans, Miss Wedding Planner?

I'm- I'm working on it, you know.

I just- I need more time to plan it.

How does a wedding planner need more time to plan her own wedding?

Look, you've been living here with me for two years.

I put that enormous rock on your finger over a year ago.

That should have been a clue that a wedding would soon follow.

I am tired of waiting, and I sure as hell am not going to disappoint my father.

No.

David, of course I want to marry you.

I do want us to be happy.

Oh.

So what you're saying is, you do want to make me and my father happy.

- Then you have until my birthday to prove it. - What? I mean-

That's seven months and 18 days.

That's 228 days.

That's 5,472 hours.

That should give you enough time to plan whatever it is you're planning.

But, David, l-

Should that not be enough time...

come the day after my birthday...

you'll be dragging that shapely little ass of yours...

back to your mother's house for good.

I know that sounds harsh, but I've got to draw the line somewhere.

Oh, those days are over.

Thank you. I am stuffed.

- Thanks, Dennis. - It was wonderful.

- Are you? - I'm stuffed! I-

- Here's your dessert. Enjoy. - Oh, no.

I-I didn't order this.

Oh, uh, I did.

When you went to the bathroom earlier.

Oh! That's sweet, lsaac. But I'm stuffed!

Well, just, uh- just have a taste.

I mean, this place is known for its desserts. Right?

And, uh...

there's a little chocolate mousse in there too.

You know I love chocolate mousse.

Are you serious?

Yeah.

Clean that up...

a little bit for you.

Jill...

will you marry me?

Yes.

Yes, I will marry you, lsaac.

I love you.

It's perfect.

- Whew!

Whoa.

I just have one question.

O-Okay.

Where's my chocolate mousse?

- Oh.

- Oh, baby!

Okay, let's go.

I'm gettin' married!

- I'm getting married!

Well, let me talk to someone who does know what they're talking about.

Yeah.

- What can I do for you, Harold? - Hey, look, man.

Last night in bed, Candi told me that all my brains was between my legs.

I want to just prove to her how wrong she is.

- So I'm doin' one of these "Suduki" things- - Sudoku.

Yeah, that.

- I wanna impress her, man. - And?

I need your help. I don't know what I'm doin'.

I'm here.

Uh-huh.

I understand.

Now shut up and listen.

Have you rerouted all authenticated data queries...

through the primary domain controller at our New York office?

All our systems have the same O. D. B.C. drivers set to access the S.Q. L. server...

which is mirrored at each branch location.

Yes, I realize that will spike the bandwidth load...

but their systems are more than capable of handling an increased traffic...

with no more than a 15% decrease in access time.

Besides it's only temporary.

You can restore service almost immediately.

This will give you and your group of geniuses enough time...

to bring the secondary system online...

and let those of us doing our jobs get back to work.

Yeah.

You have a nice day too.

Done.

You got to be kiddin'.

Damn, you good.

This'll show Candi. Thanks, man.

Hey, beautiful.

Mr. Washington, I am sorry to interrupt you, but you have a guest.

- Who is it? - He says he's a friend.

I don't have friends.

- Are you just gonna stand there? Show him in. - Okay.

David Washington.

Hooks!

That'd be Gunnery Sergeant Hooks to you.

I can see that. Outstanding.

The few, the proud, the marines.

You're not gonna break into song, are ya?

I would, but I'd be afraid you might join in.

It's good seeing you. What are you doing here?

I'm in town to help open a new recruiting office.

In fact, I'm on my way there right now, so I can't stay, but I'm free tonight.

- Wanna have dinner? - Ah.

- Meet at Hoops? - 1900 hours?

Roger that, Gunny.

See?

I can still drink you under the table, Hooks. Always could.

I'd forgotten what a competitive bastard you were.

Hey, man, that's part of my charm.

Charm, huh?

I've always been this way.

Used to compete tooth and nail with my brothers for everything.

Especially my older brother Jay.

I was always trying to top him. He was the one Dad was grooming to take over the business.

That's right. You come from money, huh?

Yeah, but Dad never let us make a fuss about it, 'cause he said he earned it, we didn't.

Mom, she was... more laid back.

But she never pushed it because she knew her place.

She's the one who kept us all sane because Dad ran a tight ship.

I have to say, he prepared me for life.

You know, Washington...

you are about the most disciplined son of a bitch I ever met.

When I was 14 I really screwed up.

I wrecked my old man's cherry Mustang convertible.

Man!

- You must have been in a world of hurt. - Got that right.

Wanted to send me to juvie, but Mom wouldn't let him.

So instead...

he sent me off to Parkhurst Military Academy.

But most kids with money avoid the military, even if they go to military school.

Especially if they went to Parkhurst.

Two days after I graduated Parkhurst...

I enlisted in the marines...

so Uncle Sam could foot the bill for my college...

and I could stand up and prove once and for all...

that I was a man and totally self-sufficient.

Yeah. And you did, Washington.

Putting yourself through Vanderbilt, graduating with honors.

Magna cum laude.

And I did it all without the old man's help, man.

It's ironic, man.

The son that was the most trouble coming up...

is now the one my old man is most proud of.

- And you owe it all to the marines. - Yeah.

Semper fi, baby.

Semper fi.

All right, that's a tall with soy milk and hazelnut.

Perfect. Thanks.

Well, well.

Good morning.

Good morning, David.

What a surprise seeing you here.

Again.

So, lactose intolerant?

No, just gotta switch it up. And I kinda like the taste.

- All right. That'll be four dollars. - Four dollars?

- Here you go. - All right.

I'll have my usual.

- Espresso with a shot of almond. - You got it.

- Coming right up. - Fuel for the day?

Gotta stay alert and on point at all times.

I hear you. Guess I'll see you back here on Monday.

Uh-uh.

Oh, that's right. Congratulations.

Thanks.

Hey, listen, my fiancee and l...

we're having a dinner party tonight.

You should come, with Denise if you'd like.

- Just let her know I said it'd be okay. - Okay.

Thanks. Bye.

Good day, gentlemen. And I do use the term loosely.

So, tomorrow's the big event.

I guess.

You guess?

It's your wedding day. You know?

People show up, give you gifts, you marry the man of your dreams and live happily ever after.

Is any of this sounding familiar?

I'm not in love with David.

Oh, honey.

Look, I grew up poor.

Powdered milk, powdered eggs...

block cheese that even the fires of hell couldn't melt.

Yeah, I remember those days.

The joys of Section 8 housing and food stamps.

David-

He rescued me from that lifestyle...

and I'm scared to go back.

- Oh, shit.

Uh, that's Nina, my stylist.

I told her to text me when she was one deep.

Look, I'm gonna call you when I get under the dryer.

I'm good.

Are you sure? Because- No, no, no. You're worrying me.

Jill, these are just last-minute jitters. You know? Cold feet.

I'm gonna be fine.

All right.

Okay.

Oh, I almost forgot.

Isaac's gonna drop off that case of wine for the wedding reception.

Okay.

- I love you. - I love you.

The return from Saint Croix stays the same.

- Good.

I don't want to pay the fee, but I do want to get there earlier.

Yes. Julie, thanks.

And I will enjoy my honeymoon.

Thank you.

Well, this is it.

By tomorrow you and Robin will be man and wife.

You will be there, right?

- I wouldn't miss it for the world, man. - Is Candi coming?

No!

I don't want her gettin' no crazy ideas like she might be next or somethin'.

- Denise. - Yes, Mr. Washington?

- When you're finished doing what you're doing you can leave. - Thank you.

I just want to double-check that you told Tina it'd be okay if she came tonight.

Yes, that's fine.

Okay.

Uh, you can set the wine down anywhere over here.

All right.

How's that?

- Great. Thank you. - Yeah, no problem.

Smells good.

Oh. Thank you.

Well, I just did a little duck and some ribs.

I didn't know you could cook like that.

Yeah, well, I'm full of surprises.

Uh, can I get you something to drink?

- Uh, sure. You got any beer? - Yeah.

- Here you go. - Thanks.

So, tell me, how's your band doing?

Where are you guys playing these days?

Mmm.

Playing at this spot called, uh...

High Point Pinch.

- You've never heard us before, have you? - Uh-uh.

You gotta get with Jill, come check us out, 'cause we're pretty hot.

But, uh, I'm not sure you want to bring David.

You know, we don't really stick to...

a rigorously enforced set list.

- I will keep that in mind.

I'm sorry. I couldn't resist.

Hey, have you been working out?

- I mean, you can tell? - Yeah.

Yeah, I been doin' a little somethin'.

I figured I'm not getting any younger, so I been going to the gym a little bit.

Well, you, uh-

you definitely look a lot more chiseled than the last time I saw you.

Yeah? Wow.

Twenty-four hours until D-day.

I don't know what you're smiling about, sir.

You and Jill are just a few months away from your date with destiny.

Yeah, but a few months is a lot different than one day.

Hmm.

Look, I'd better be going.

Thanks for the beer.

You know, lsaac...

I'm pretty much done with everything in here except for one thing.

The deejay needs me to pick a song for the first dance...

and I haven't been able to settle on anything.

I was hoping you could help me since you're a professional musician and all.

You are a professional, right?

- Whenever I can get them to pay me.

But, uh- But yeah. That's cool.

I guess I can stick around for a minute, help you out.

But then after that I definitely gotta get to the gym.

I mean, this chiseled physique doesn't get this way on its own.

Well, um, I promise not to keep you for too long.

- Cool. - All right. You can finish that.

Let's go to the den and I'll play for you what I had in mind.

# I never knew such a day could come #

Now, this is my jam.

Mmm.

There's just nothin' like old-school.

So, what do you think?

Good choice.

This song's a classic.

Do you remember your first dance?

Unfortunately, yeah.

Yeah, I had, like, two left feet.

Must've been hard buying shoes.

- Jokes!

I never knew you were this much fun.

You thought I was boring.

Dance with me.

# Can I just see you every morning#

- Uh, you know what?

I should go. I don't think this is a good idea.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to-

It's all right.

# Can we just feel this way together ##

# It's morning #

# And we slept the night away #

- Hey there, lady. - Hey!

- Here to help Robin get ready for the big day? - Oh, yeah.

I 'm sure she's mental by now. A friend's work is never done.

I see your future husband is here already.

- Oh, yeah, I had him come by and drop off some wine. - Ah, great.

I'm on my way to the liquor store to pick up my order.

They said it would be ready at 4:30. You want to ride along with?

Sure.

# She would never understand#

# You belong to me #

# Forjust one night#

- Oh! Wait.

I almost forgot. The reason I stopped home was to pick up my checklist.

- Have to make sure they don't short me. - You're getting old.

- You're starting to forget things. I told you.

- Come on. I'll run inside and get it. - All right.

# I would never, never want to hurt her, no, no #

# She'd never #

# Understand#

# You belong to me #

# Forjust one night#

# As we slept#

# The night away #

- Robin? I 'm home!

- Fuck. - # Forgot about tomorrow as we lay ##

Hey, baby.

I almost didn't hear you over the music.

What were you doing in there? Working out? You're out of breath.

I see lsaac got here.

- Did he get the wine right? - Sure did.

All right, well, we pulled up at the same time, so we're just gonna run to the liquor store.

Actually, lsaac just got here himself. He's in the den.

We were just having a drink.

What's up?

I don't know. You tell me.

Hey, baby. You just got here?

Uh... yeah, babe.

Uh, you know, a little while ago.

Just dropped off the wine. Gettin' ready to head out to the gym.

I-I don't mean to trip, but if you just got here...

how is it there's two empty bottles of beer and an empty bottle of wine?

Are you fucking him?

It's not what you think.

Come on, David. It's not even like that.

Then why is your fly unzipped?

You just had to.

You just- You just had to do it, didn't you?

You're not in love with your man, so you had to have mine?

Jill.

David, no!

Jill!

Get out.

Get out!

Jill. Hey, Jill! Slow down!

- Jill, look- Wait. Jill!

Nothing happened! Jill, slow down!

Hey, look. You're acting crazy right now. You're acting real crazy.

- Slow down! Let me talk to you!

Let me talk- Jill!

I was gonna give you everything!

No!

Hey! Where is everybody? Open up!

Yeah? What is it?

- Hey, man, we're here. - Hey, it's Harold!

- And Jack. - Open up, man. Where is everybody?

Open up!

- The wedding's off. - What?

What happened?

Look, Harold, I don't wanna go into it right now.

Damn.

Must have been really bad.

Damn.

Harold, I told you I didn't wanna go into it right now.

Hi. Um-

I thought Denise told me dinner was at 7:00. I'm so sorry if I got the times wrong.

You got it right.

- Where is Denise? - Running late.

I hope you don't mind that she gave me directions. I decided to come on my own.

Look. The wedding's off.

You can call Denise and tell her not to come.

Okay. Um, can I come in and use your phone?

My cell phone died.

Thank you.

You can use the phone in the- in the kitchen.

Want a drink?

Okay.

Beer or wine. I-I have plenty of both.

Wine is fine.

You can use the phone over there.

Thanks.

So what do I tell her?

Not to come.

Hey, D. It's me. I just made it to David's.

The wedding is off.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, David said that the dinner is canceled, so you don't need to come.

Yeah. My cell phone battery died.

Yes. I'll call you when I get home.

Bye.

Thanks. Um-

I'd better be going.

Thought you said you wanted some wine.

Oh. Yeah.

Ol' Harold was right. You've been digging me all along.

Um, how am I supposed to respond to that?

I've got a trip for two to Saint Croix.

# Let's straighten it out#

# Let's straighten it out#

# Let's straighten it out#

# Oh, let's straighten it out#

Look, Jill, we need to talk.

About what? You did your dirt.

I 've been tryin' to get in touch with you for two weeks. I can't take this shit no more.

I'm trying to move on.

You screwed my best friend!

Look, I didn't screw your best friend. We didn't have sex.

Okay.

Let's say that you didn't.

If David and l...

had been kissing and touching and all that...

would you give me a second chance?

I didn't think so.

You motherfuckers can dish it, but you sure can't take it.

- Good-bye. - Wait a minute. No, no, no. Wait, Jill. Come on.

Let it go.

- Let it go. - Wait, Jill.

Let us go.

You broke my heart.

Hey, wait, Jill. Come on.

Get off my porch! Don't come back here anymore!

Let me in so we can talk about it! Jill!

Jill.

Come on, Jill!

# Sit yourself down, girl, and talk to me #

# Tell me what's on your mind##

- Hey! - Hey! - Hi.

Wow. Look what you've done with the place.

Yeah. Who's your cleaning lady, so I can make a point not to hire her?

I will ignore your insults...

because it appears that you've brought me housewarming gifts...

and this place needs all the help it can get warming up.

- Thank you, ladies. They're beautiful. - Sure.

So this is a change.

But good. Right?

You don't have to convince us.

Yeah, we were surprised you stayed with that controlling bastard as long as you did.

Yeah, me too.

A pregnancy test?

Oh, shit.

Yeah. I'm late.

Well, don't just stand there! Go pee on it or something!

Go on!

Yeah. Next time we'll stay longer.

Wow!

L-Look at you two, all back from Saint Croix.

It was incredible, D. The water was so clear, so blue.

The beaches- amazing. You just had to be there.

Yeah, in my dreams.

Denise, is there anything that needs my immediate attention?

There is one report on your desk that needs a signature.

Okay.

I'll just be a minute.

Then we can head out to that great little bistro I told you about.

Okay.

- Oh, my God, Tina!

What is going on?

One minute you call me, you tell me the wedding's off.

The next thing I know, you're in paradise with my boss...

on his honeymoon.

You guys are all smiling, acting like you're still chillin' on the islands.

We practically are.

We just came from the airport, and David wanted to stop by and check up on some things.

- Yeah, and me. - Oh, whatever.

It's nice to know some things haven't changed. Hmm?

Hey, beautiful!

And beautiful's beautiful cousin.

What a pleasant surprise to see you here today.

Hey, Harold.

- David. Welcome back. - Thanks.

Ready to have your taste buds tantalized?

Totally.

After you.

Bye, D.

Bye, Tina.

I'll check in with you later, Denise.

And the papers I signed are on my desk.

- Yes, sir. - See you later, buddy?

Oh, yeah, buddy.

I'd rather a man stick his dick in my mouth than in my woman.

Know what I mean?

Uh...

not- not really.

At all, really.

No.

Don't touch ever again.

# I'm goin' up #

Whoo!

Whoo!

7-8-point-5, code six, 105 North A venue 52.

So what do you think? Accident or suicide?

It's gonna be hard to tell, but I definitely gotta do a tox screen for drugs and alcohol.

- It might take a while. - It doesn't look like he even tried to stop.

I mean, actually it's not much of a case.

Look, I'll call you after I do the autopsy if I find anything unusual.

Damn shame though.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death...

I shall fear no evil...

for thou art with me.

Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Thou anointeth my head with oil.

My cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life...

and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Amen.

And now as we mourn the passing of our dearly beloved lsaac Roberts...

Iet us remember...

that though he has left this earth...

he remains with us in our hearts and in our minds.

And now let us bow our heads in reverence...

for our dear lsaac Roberts...

whose soul is now with the Almighty.

# But ifthe storms #

# Don't cease #

# And if the winds #

# Keep on blowing#

# My soul has been #

- # Anchored#

# In #

# The Lord#

- Jill.

Jill, I 'm so sorry for your loss.

I didn't expect to see you here.

I-I really just came to see how you were holding up.

I don't know. I-

It's just- It's so unreal.

You know?

Losing someone is always hard.

Especially when they take their own life.

I heard it was an accident.

Are you telling me it was suicide?

I don't know. That's what the police think.

It's terrible.

I just need to get out of here.

- Do you have family you can stay with? - Yes.

I'm gonna go to Chicago and I'm gonna stay with my family for a while...

until I can get a grip on all this.

If you need anything, just let me know.

I was gonna marry him.

- I know. - Oh-

- I know.

# And ifthe winds #

# Keep on blowing in my life #

# My soul#

What am I gonna do?

Sorry, baby.

Looks like we're gonna be eating a lot of instant soup and mac and cheese.

My mother always told me that diamonds are a girl's best friend.

Ah. Well, your mother told you right.

And my dad always made sure my mother had plenty of best friends.

Hmm. The man knows how to treat a lady, huh?

Ah. That's a nice cut.

Nice clarity too.

- Oh, gosh. - Mmm.

I have never met a man who knew diamonds like you.

Dad taught me to be a cut above the rest, babe.

- Do you like that?

Oh, it's gorgeous.

Are you serious?

Whatever makes you happy. What did I say, Tina?

Oh!

Yes, Mr. Washington.

Yes.

Whatever the lady wants, she gets.

- Oh! - Mmm.

I think it's time you had your own key.

- Really? - Really.

Oh, my God.

Oh, David.

Come on.

David Washington's office.

Denise, may I please speak to David?

Uh, hold on, Robin.

- Robin? - Yes?

Mr. Washington told me not to let your calls through...

and to tell you to please not call him at work again.

Good-bye.

I have a delivery for Tina Simpson.

Oh!

- If I could have you sign right here. - Okay.

- Thank you. - Thank you. You have a good one.

Oh.

What does this bitch want now?

"David, I've been "tying' for several months-"

"Tying." Girl can't even spell.

"I've been trying for several months to contact you.

I'm carrying your baby...

and we need to discuss this like two adults.

Please call me as soon as possible.

I'm really tired of this.

For once would you stop acting like a child and try to be a man. Robin."

That manly enough for you?

Are you Robin Joyner?

- Yes. - Ma'am, this is a restraining order.

You're not to write, call, fax, e-mail...

or come within a hundred feet of David Washington.

You have a good day.

What the hell!

- Wait and see.

- What club? - Ah, I don't know. You choose.

- Okay.

Tina. Hey.

- Ken? - Yeah!

- Oh, my God. How are you? - I'm good. It's good seeing you again.

- You too.

Sorry. Let me introduce you to my friend David.

- David, this is Ken. Ken, this is David. - How you doing?

Sorry about that, man.

That's fine. Nice to meet you, David.

- Well, look. It was good seeing you again. - All right.

- I'll tell everybody that I ran into you. - Okay. See you later.

- Take care. - Bye.

Bye.

- Who was that? - Just a friend.

- A friend? - Mm-hmm.

Ah, well, an acquaintance really.

Someone at the office introduced me to him when I first moved here.

- Did you go out with him? - Yeah, once.

- Does he still call you? - No, not really.

You know what? You're a piece of work.

Okay, David. Why are you making such a big deal out of this?

Look. I bump into a guy that I had lunch with almost a year ago, and you want to trip?

Why did you introduce me as your friend?

I thought I was your man. I don't appreciate that shit.

Next time, introduce me as your man.

None of that friend shit.

You're hurting me, David.

I need a drink.

- Hey, Coach. - How are ya?

Hey, I'll be right with you, Mr. Washington.

Just like clockwork.

David, you are so predictable.

- What are you doing here? - I'm just out getting some fresh air.

Well, I hope the fresh air does you good.

- Please sit down. - No.

I have to speak with you.

We have nothing to talk about.

David, I don't want to have to make a scene in here, so please sit down for a moment.

Say what you have to say, Robin.

I'm sorry about everything...

and I know that you will never forgive me...

but, David, we are about to have a child together...

and we have to find a way to try to-

"We"? How do I know the baby's even mine?

Come on, Robin. Think.

Do you really believe I'm going to play daddy to your love child?

David, I know that this baby is ours.

Look. I don't have time for this. I'm running late.

I'm gonna have you tested...

and you're gonna help me with this baby.

You may want to rethink popping up in unexpected places with all of this drama.

I've got a restraining order in place.

Knocked up or not, this happens again...

I'll have them drag your ass off to jail.

Enjoy the fresh air, Robin.

I'll have my usual.

Yes, sir.

Denise!

- Denise! - Yes, Mr. Washington?

- Call your cousin. She's late. - Uh, yes, sir.

- Hey, honey. You ready? - Ready for what?

It's 12:06. I had a reservation for 12:45. You just blew it.

Okay, well, I'm five minutes late. What's the big deal?

- Oh, Lord. - No, you're six minutes late.

Okay, I get the point. I'll be more punctual.

You will be punctual.

Hey, coz, what are you doing on Saturday?

She's busy.

I think she was talking to me. What's up, D?

I was just thinking maybe we could go shopping...

um, and then later hang out- you know, just have, like, a girls' night like we used to.

She's not going. Denise, don't you have work to do?

Yes, actually, I have got some things to catch up on, Mr. Washington. Excuse me.

- Call me, Tina. - Don't worry. I will.

This isn't working.

What isn't working, David?

Us. You, me.

First you're late. Then you want to go and hang out with the girls...

and flirt with other men or do whatever.

It's not working.

David, I'm sorry about being late.

But why are you making such a big deal out of me hanging out with my cousin?

Because women use women as alibis.

Well, I don't know about other women, but not me.

Look. Before we can go to the next level...

I need you to sign a contract.

I was working on it earlier because I am not going through again what Robin put me through.

Here.

I don't believe this shit.

Believe it. Go ahead. Read it aloud.

No.

Fine. These are my ten commandments:

"l will dress in an appropriate manner at all times- no ho clothes.

Nine: I will show my boyfriend the proper respect.

Eight: I will spend as much time or as little with my boyfriend as he wants.

Seven: I will always answer or return his calls within one minute or less.

Six: I will not communicate in any form, including e-mails, phones or letters...

to any and all ex-boyfriends or other men.

Five: I will not flirt with others.

Four: I will not abuse my boyfriend's generosity.

Three: I will not spend any time with any females.

Two: I will love, honor and especially obey my boyfriend.

And...

I will always be faithful to my boyfriend."

Sign here.

You know what, David? Don't worry about lunch.

I'll grab something from the deli.

- Let go of my arm.

Come on. Let's get some lunch.

- It is about time we finally got together. - I agree.

Robin, you are looking good.

You are carrying that baby well.

- I hope I look that good when I'm pregnant. - Oh, thank you.

You know, I've been trying to eat right and stay in shape.

I walk just about every day, and I've been playing a little tennis.

All of that is good. You know, I swam every day...

and that helped me get in shape a lot quicker once the baby came.

Ladies, I still don't think this is such a good idea.

Don't you worry. Jill's gonna be here any minute.

- It's about time you guys finally talked about- - Leslie.

You did tell her I was gonna be here, right?

Well, not exactly.

Here she comes.

Hey, I'm so sorry I'm late. You wouldn't believe-

What's going on?

What is she doing here?

- Jill, please, just sit down. - I just got back from Chicago.

I don't need to see this bitch.

Okay, I'm gonna leave.

No, no, no, no! I'm gonna leave.

Robin, don't you move. Jill, come on.

Jill!

Jill!

I knew this was a bad idea.

Guys-

I think my water just broke.

- Are you serious? - What?

- Okay. We gotta get her to the hospital. - Right. I'll drive.

- You got this? - Yeah. Let's go.

- You're having contractions already? - Mm-hmm.

We gotta drive fast, or else she's gonna be having this baby in the backseat of your Mazda.

As you can see in our presentation here...

As you can see in our presentation here...

we have three major areas of development down by the river.

And that will facilitate the growth of-

Where is she?

Why haven't you answered my calls?

David, you will not believe the kind of day I had.

Try me.

Well, first, the meeting ran long.

Then when I got in the car to call you, my cell phone died.

- Then- - Shut up.

Is that the best lie you've got?

- Don't walk away from me when I'm talking to you!

- Have you lost your mind? - No. You've lost yours.

It takes exactly 12 minutes, 48 seconds to get to your job.

Even in heavy traffic, it took me only 17 minutes.

And goddamn it, Tina, you want me to believe...

that it took you two hours and 21 minutes to get home?

Tell me the truth, okay?

Who is he? Who are you fucking?

No one.

Well, from now on...

you call me as you're leaving the office.

That should be no later than 5:06.

You heard me! 5:06!

Fine.

Have a seat.

I don't understand why I have to give blood to prove that this baby isn't mine.

All I need is a swab from your mouth for a D. N.A. test.

I haven't done this before.

I see. Just come closer, and open wide.

Good. That's it.

How will they know it's my D. N.A.?

Smile.

And I need you to sign... right here.

Babies and mothers sometimes get mixed up at birth, don't they?

To answer your question, mistakes can happen, but Dr. Myers doesn't make them.

But in theory, it could happen.

Do you think I'm gonna make a mistake with your sample?

If you want this, you will.

After all, mistakes can happen.

This can't be right.

I know that David is the father. This is David's child.

I can't believe I'm up in here!

I told you the baby can't be mine!

And I'm sick of you saying the same old shit.

You been telling me this for the last two years...

and I'm tired of hearing about it!

But I'm gonna show you today.

I know it can't be mine!

'Cause after baby number four, I got fixed!

Robin Joyner? You're next.

I see you're here to see Dr. Myers.

- Yes, I am. - You here to take another test?

No, it's about my previous test.

Dr. Myers.

This is Robin Joyner.

- It's good to meet you, Doctor. - It's nice to meet you, Robin. Please have a seat.

- Thank you, Nancy.

How can I help you?

Um, about two months ago, my ex came here and took a D. N.A. test...

and I'm confused by the results.

They were negative.

So what's the problem?

The problem is that there's no way that anyone else...

besides my ex-fiance David could be the father.

I see.

Miss Joyner, I hate to be the person to deliver bad news...

but today D. N.A. paternity testing is extremely reliable.

Okay, I understand that.

But I took health in school, and they taught me that a child can only have one father.

That's right.

And so the question becomes...

how many partners did you have sex with?

In the last 12 months, I have been with one man. That's it.

That's why I'm confused by the negative result.

I'm sorry, but these are the results.

Are you sure there's no one else?

Yes, I'm positive. So what else can I do?

Absolutely nothing.

Unless you can get your ex to come back in to be retested.

Now, I understand your frustration...

but at this point there's nothing further I can do for you.

Thanks for nothing.

- Take care. - Whatever.

Okay, Denise.

When you finish making five copies of each of these, front and back...

and have sent them to the entire distribution list...

you can call it a night.

Yes, sir.

Uh, have a good evening, Mr. Washington.

You do the same.

Yeah, I'm gonna have a really nice evening copying your crap.

Why me?

Got you, you bastard.

Dr. Myers, since our last visit...

I've been doing my research on D. N.A.

Okay.

So, if I'm able to get a sample of David's D. N.A....

you can retest him.

What's this?

It's David's D. N.A.

I can't do anything with it.

I must have the donor's signature in order to resume another test.

You can't help me?

I feel for you, Miss Joyner, but legally...

I can't start another test without his consent.

However, I can run an off-the-record test.

No promises, but it is all that I can do for you.

It's a beautiful day.

It's almost perfect.

I agree.

- Are you going to answer your phone? - No.

It's messing up the mood.

Go ahead and answer it. I don't mind.

- Are you sure? - Absolutely.

Hello?

Hey.

Oh, just hanging out with David.

No, no, no. You're fine. What's up?

Okay.

Oh, congratulations.

Okay. Uh, did you want to tell him?

Okay, I'll tell him.

All right. See you then.

I love you too.

Bye.

Oh, man.

Who was that?

That was my big brother Jason.

He's having a party at the end of the month 'cause he got another promotion.

- Your brother? - Yes, my brother.

He wants me to come home for it, and he said that he would love if you came too.

Hmm?

You've outdone yourself this time, Tina.

What are you talking about?

Having some guy call you pretending to be your brother.

Go ahead. Be honest with me.

That was my brother, David.

- Your brother? - Yes. My brother.

Good alibi.

Damn good alibi.

- I know that was your ex-boyfriend calling. - Oh-

You're using your brother as a cover...

so you can go and be with him behind my back all weekend long.

- I don't believe this. - I do. I do.

If there's someone else, you can tell me.

- Who's your other man? Just tell me. - There is nobody else, David.

Whatever.

Look. I'm a grown woman-

So what?

Get your hands off me.

Look. You're not going to Philly next weekend.

And that's that on that.

Denise. Denise, come here.

Yes, Mr. Washington?

Have you talked to Tina?

No. Uh, she hasn't called me in a while.

Ah.

Do you have work to do?

Yes, sir.

Damn it.

Try my key.

Oh, shit.

Wait! Wait! That's my car!

It is my car! I paid for it.

And I called the police and reported it stolen.

Now, do you want to go home or to jail?

Well-

- Hey, Dr. Smith. - Hi, Tina.

I'm so sorry I'm late. The traffic was crazy, and-

It's okay. It's okay. Have a seat.

- Everything's okay. - All right.

How have you been doing?

I'm okay. I've been better.

So what's on your mind?

David. David Washington.

He just doesn't trust me.

He won't trust you. Hmm. Is he controlling?

Yes.

- Possessive? - Very.

And every man you meet or know, he thinks something is going on.

How'd you know?

How long have you been going out with this man?

A little over a year now.

So it was perfect for three months, and then things changed.

That's about right.

I've met plenty of women in your shoes.

No. No, this- this situation is different.

Okay, David is capable of a committed relationship.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, he was almost married...

but he's been scarred and a bit jaded...

ever since he caught his fiancee...

screwing some other guy the night before their wedding.

- Yeah, so I would say this is a little different. - Mm-hmm. Okay.

- Right? - Mm-hmm. Okay.

One question. Why are you with this man?

Because...

beneath the insecurity...

and the anger...

he's a beautiful person.

And... deep down inside, I feel that I can help him.

I wake up every morning...

just thinking of ways that I can prove to this man that I am not like Robin.

Mm-hmm.

Look. I know it's the oldest cliche in the book, right?

But I am in love.

I love David.

And I want to be the person who is there to love him through this.

Now she's siccing her lawyer on me.

Can't this woman just go away forever?

- Hey.

I need to run out to Little Rock this afternoon...

so I can meet with the sales team first thing in the morning.

But don't worry. I'll take you out for a nice dinner when I get back tomorrow night.

Well, that's kind of sudden, but okay.

Don't go running off anywhere. I need to see you.

Look. Just be careful, and I'll see you when you get back.

I love you.

This is David Washington. I received your e-mail.

A meeting tomorrow is fine.

I'll leave this evening so I can meet with your sales team first thing in the morning.

I'll need a receipt as well as a 6:37 wake-up call.

Yes, sir.

Hello?

Okay. Thank you.

Ow!

Oh, damn it.

Oh, man.

Oh-

Mommy's here. Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

I got ya. I got ya, Pumpkin.

Okay.

You must be exhausted.

You must be tired. Hmm?

Okay.

Come on!

Are you okay?

I think so, but m-my daughter!

- l- I can't-

Sh-She looks fine. Don't move. I called 911. The police should be here soon.

Okay. Honey, it's okay. It's okay. Mommy's here.

Dr. Blair. Dr. Blair.

You were very lucky, Robin.

The test results all look good.

You may be sore for a couple of days, but you and your baby should be fine.

- Thank you, Doctor. - No problem.

There's two things I'm always happy to deliver:

That's healthy babies and good news.

Amen to that.

Okay. You're good to go.

If you would, just stop at the nurse's desk on the way out.

- Okay? Thank you. - Thank you.

- Well, that's good. - Yeah.

- You ready to go? - Mm-hmm.

Okay.

Well, I'll be damned.

Dr. Davis, telephone, please. Dr. Davis, telephone, please.

Excuse us.

Oh, my God. Oh!

- Are you and the baby okay? - We're fine, Kim.

When Leslie called and said you had an accident, I was scared to death.

All the way over here I've been a basket case.

- We're really okay. Really. Thank you so much for coming. - Okay.

- Ooh.

Hello? Yes, this is she, but I can't really talk right now.

I'm in a hospital waiting-

- What? - What?

- Who's she talking to? - I don't know.

You're kidding. Are you sure?

Okay. Well, thank you so much, Doctor.

I gotta go, but I will be back in touch.

You have no idea how much I appreciate this.

- That son of a bitch. - Which one?

Yeah, can you be more specific?

That was Dr. Myers, the D. N.A. guy.

David's test came back positive. He is the father.

Oh, hallelujah!

I mean, I think. This is a good thing, right?

Yeah. Damn right!

David is your father, little girl.

And now I can finally prove it. Let's see him try to deny you now.

- I bet you can't wait to see the look on his face. - Mmm.

You know what? I'm not gonna wait.

Kim, can you give Leslie a ride home? 'Cause I need to borrow her car.

- Is that okay, Les? - Uh, sure.

What she means is, long as you don't wreck it.

That's not what I meant. But be careful, okay?

- I will. - Okay.

- And can you guys watch Pumpkin till I get back? - No problem.

Okay. Thank you so much.

You guys are great. I love you.

- I love you too. - I love you too.

- Be careful, Robin. - I will.

Drive safe.

- Hello?

Yes, I need to speak to David.

Who's this?

This is Robin Joyner. I used to be his-

I know who you are. I can't believe you're calling this house.

Listen. There's just a couple of things I need to get straight with him.

- This has nothing to do with you. - Oh, yes, it does.

Because of you, David doesn't trust women.

Because ofyou, my life has become a living hell.

So don't say it has nothing to do with me. It has everything to do with me.

Please don't call this house again.

Ha, ha, ha!

You ready to tango?

- You mean like this?

- I mean like that.

Hey.

Mmm. Mmm.

- What's that? - What's what?

This mark on your neck.

Oh, that.

I burned myself when I was curling my hair this morning.

A burn.

Looks more like a hickey than a burn.

It's not a hickey. It's a curling iron burn.

You're good.

- You can stand right there and lie to my face. - I'm not lying, David.

Your little boy toy probably put it there.

Okay, David. I'm not going there with you.

- I said who put it there?

I told you. Nobody- that I burned myself!

Bitch, I said tell me the truth!

I can't believe you did that.

Come back here!

Shit!

Going somewhere?

- Please don't touch me. - Don't tell me what to do!

Stop it!

Don't come any closer, David. I mean it.

After all I've done for you? You ungrateful little slut!

Oh!

You cut me?

You cut me!

My father was right. All women are nothing but moneygrubbing whores!

David, stop!

Oh, David, please.

Please don't do this, okay?

I know you're angry, but you're not a killer.

I don't think lsaac would agree with you.

You did that?

- No! - Could be.

The door was open.

Are you all right?

I don't know.

Let me help you.

So, Robin, how's the love life?

What love life?

All I do is work and come home.

My precious one gets all my time.

Well, she is so cute.

Yeah, she's the bright spot in my life.

- This last year's been a little rough. - I know.

But hey, you're gonna be coming into a nice chunk of change soon.

Yeah. David's money.

Since we proved his paternity, Pumpkin's gonna get everything.

Except for the life insurance, right?

Yeah. Tina gets that.

Lord knows she deserves it after everything she's been through.

Amen to that.

Plus I owe her.

I mean, it was her statement to the police about how I saved her life...

that convinced the D.A. not to press charges against me.

- Wh- What's up? - Is that Jill?

It sure is. Jill. Jill!

Hey. Come over.

What's up? What's going on?

Nothin'. I'm just meeting some people for lunch.

Hey, Robin.

Hi, Jill.

It's really nice to see you.

It's nice to see you too.

Well, I guess I better go now.

Well, Jill...

can't you stay until your guests arrive?

I don't think that would be a good idea.

It was good to see you, ladies.

Jill-

I am really sorry for what I did.

You were my best friend, and I miss you so much.

Jill, don't you want to see the baby?

Well, I guess I could take a peek.

- Hey, beautiful.

You can hold her. I don't mind.

Come say hi to me. Look at you, angel.

Come say hi to me.

She is so beautiful.

And what's her name?

Jill Renee.

You named her after me?

I named her after my best friend.

The best friend that anybody in the world would be blessed to have.

Leslie, could you take the baby for me?

Of course.

I am- I am so sorry!

I forgive you.

I've missed you so much!

I missed you too. And we can work it out, okay?

I would love that.

Oh, Jill.

How many people are you meeting, Jill?

Oh. Um, two.

Can we have two extra chairs, please? Thanks.

Okay.

Well, well, well. Here we all are again.

- Mm-hmm. - Yeah.

So, Jill, how have those little rug rats been treating you?

Don't get me started.

Don't get me started. Now, wait, wait, wait.

- You know that Nicky Molasky that I had last year? - Yeah.

Well, this year I have his younger brother Tyler...

and this child is truly Satan's spawn.

Do you know what he did?
