[upbeat funk music]

- Damn.

[Ronnie coughing]

[phone ringing]

Yo.

- [Karey] Yo, where the fuck you been at?

- Man, I'm here. I just woke up.

What's up?

- [Karey] Shit, you tell me.

I had people looking for you.

What the fuck happened?

[punches striking]

- All the poker, all that money.

All that money.

- Shit, nothing I can't handle.

Just a little run-in with them fucks.

- [Karey] Oh, is that what they call it nowadays?

A little run-in?

- Yeah, something like that.

- [Karey] Boy, you know you need to quit.

Don't even worry about it.

I got it handled.

- [Karey] I don't know whether to call you

the luckiest guy alive

or just pure fuckin' stupid.

- I'm still breathing, right?

Right.

- [Karey] Well, that's what I'm talking about.

You gotta be more conservative.

Nothing is guaranteed out here.

- What's that supposed to mean?

- [Karey] You know exactly what I mean.

- [Ronnie] I don't have it as you do.

Some of us gotta be more aggressive and make a way.

Not everyone is blessed the way you are.

- Well, if you had played your cards right

like I had told you,

then maybe you wouldn't have to take so many chances.

And then you'd be be able to enjoy

some of the simple pleasures in life.

- [Ronnie] Such as.

- Such as having a pretty young thing treat you

in the morning.

This looks good.

Ooh, yes, thank you.

- Shit, I'm glad everything it taught you paid off.

- [Karey] Taught me.

- Shit, I aint' stuttered.

- [Karey] Is that what you tell yourself

to make yourself feel better?

I'm sorry to tell you,

but some people are just born

with this kind of talent.

For real, though, you had me shittin' for a second.

I'm gonna need you to play your hands

a little tighter.

Everything doesn't have to be a crapshoot.

[dramatic hip hop music]

- [Ronnie] What can I say?

Some people weren't meant for discomfort.

That's half the game.

- [Karey] Luck is what I call it.

- [Ronnie] Well, luck is pure nuts.

Wish you had some of mine.

- [Karey] Fuck you.

I don't need any nuts here.

The good Lord blessed me with the strong ovaries

and some good game is what I like to call it.

- Yeah, whatever.

- [Karey] But, for real, though.

You need to chill with that.

Lord knows I wouldn't want

to get that 3 a.m. knock on my door

by the police and reverend saying

that they found a body floating in this city river.

This ain't PS4 where you get three extra lives

in your back pocket.

- Yeah, I know, I know.

- [Karey] Life is too precious.

Anyway, how them winnins' look last night?

- [Ronnie] Lovely.

Some that always feels real good.

Especially when you bluff someone

with a 2-7 off suit.

- [Karey] Nice.

- What's good, bro.

[Ronnie grunting]

- Hey, bro, get the money, get the money.

Not all of it.

What's up!

- [Karey] You need to stop playing in the back alleys

and upgrade to a real casino.

- Maybe one day.

How did you make out, though?

- Not so bad myself.

Man, I had them sweating bullets.

I mean, if I didn't know any better,

I probably couldn't played 2-7 off suit

all night long and still would've came out on top.

- [Ronnie] Really, though?

- I don't see why not.

Shit, I was thinking about taking

my talents to Vegas on the WSOP tour.

I don't see anybody on ESPN

that can take my chips.

Man, I could probably run circles around them.

They don't know what real poker is.

- [Ronnie] Shit, if that's the case,

no need for you to be applying for med school then.

- Well, somebody's gotta do it

to keep these dumb asses from thinking

they could outplay me.

[glass breaking]

- Shit, hold on a second.

- [Karey] I don't know why you acting like it ain't true.

- Whatever.

What you need to do is stick to the books.

- [Karey] My grades are fine.

No need to worry about them.

- What's up tonight, though?

You stopping by Tommy's.

- [Karey] I'll be there after my shift.

- Okay, cool.

I gotta go by and see my advisor later today.

- [Karey] You still trying to holler at Tiffany?

- It's not hollering when your whispers

is just as strong.

- I'll call you later, okay.

- Promise?

- Yes, now go, you're gonna be late.

I'll call you later.

- All right, talk to you later.

- All right.

- A little late for you to be up.

- Yeah, I guess.

- New girlfriend?

- Mm-hmm.

- So what's that?

Number four this month?

- So, I made the dean's list this semester.

I'm about to go and meet with my advisor.

I mean, she thinks I'm gonna have

some pretty good programs looking at me

by the end of the year.

[mother scoffing]

Mom.

That can mean a full ride.

So you have nothing to say?

Sorry, it just, it slipped.

I gotta go.

- You do that.

- I need a ride to school.

- Where your girlfriend?

You can't find one of them to take you to school?

- Mom, I have to get to school.

Are you gonna take me or not?

- Girl, come on, get on my nerves.

- Yo, yo. - Hey, baby.

- Why you not dressed?

- I'm not feeling well.

- You not feeling well? What's wrong with you?

- I mean, I'm just not feeling well.

- What you mean?

Like you got the virus or something?

- I mean, yes, I think I do got a virus.

- No, we not doing this, man.

Like every time I'm trying to do something for us,

you got some type of excuse.

Either you tired or now you sick.

- I mean, it's not like I meant to get sick Remy.

- Well, who should I blame?

You do this every time.

- I mean, where's all this coming from?

- It's coming from you

and your bullshit ass excuses.

To be honest with you, I'm over it, I'm done.

- Are you serious?

- I'm dead ass serious.

- Wow, Remy, like what? - Wow.

- Look, don't wow me.

You should be looking at yourself that way,

because every time I wanna do something for us,

you got an excuse.

You tired and today, you sick.

I think we need some time apart.

So, when you're free,

when you not busy, hit me up.

[techno funk music]

- So, how we looking?

- Looks good.

You should be proud of yourself.

- Really?

Wow, I didn't know if I seemed to anxious or over confident.

- Well, isn't that how you really feel?

- Look, they don't need to see you sweating.

- This isn't a card game.

You don't always have to hide your emotions.

It's okay to show them that you really want this.

- Bullshit.

Everything's a card game.

There's always a first place, second place,

all of that.

That's all it is.

- And what happens when you don't win?

- Then I just keep going back

until I get that W that I need.

- I don't know why I even bother.

Anyway, you have got a real shot

at a full ride here.

There are not a lot of people

who can say that they got a full ride

to MIT for grad school.

If you keep doing what you're doing,

you keep this up, you could be the next Steve Jobs.

- I know, I know.

I just gotta keep believing in myself.

- That's what I like to hear.

In addition to that, I don't think I need

to remind you what you need

to keep doing in order to make this happen.

- No need to bust out the mug shot

of photos of people that didn't make it.

- I'm just saying.

I had to put it out there.

Stay focused.

- Thanks.

- Any time you need me.

I mean, really.

Any time you feel like you need anything extra,

just let me know.

- Okay.

I will.

- Don't forget to pick me up tonight.

- I won't forget.

[dramatic music]

- [Counselor] Next.

Hello, what's your name?

- Sarriyah.

Sarriyah Bentley.

- [Counselor] Hello, Ms. Bentley, how can I help you?

[dramatic music]

- Hey, man, hurry up

and select your team, bro.

- Bruh, can't rush greatness in these talents man.

- Oh, my goodness.

- Plus, my talents rely elsewhere anyways.

- Look, bruh, you can't say your name

and talent in the same sentence at all.

- Whatever, man.

- Hey, brother, don't you think

you need to slow up a little bit.

- What's that even supposed to mean?

- I'm saying, you just broke up with Ashley

not too long ago.

- Yo, that's cool and all

but I can't be stuck on that,

especially when I see opportunity knocking.

[guns exploding]

- You a trip.

- Don't look at me.

- That's cool.

I'm a just focus on what God created for me

in the first place.

Oh, man.

- Unless you want the shit I had

for breakfast and lunch

all over your sneakers,

I suggest you give me 50 feet.

- Man, you be tryin' to front, man.

Out of all the women

that I choose to flirt with,

I give you the most attention.

I mean, alght, see what she don't know.

You know what I'm saying.

- You back the racks out.

- You could be fuckin' with a real nigga,

but you choose to play dumb.

- Who says I was looking for a nigga to begin with.

Besides, they way y'all built nowadays,

I might as well flip to the sweet side.

- And I'm cool with that.

Just let me tag team with you on that.

- I'm good.

The day I need help to satisfy

the person I'm in bed with,

I'll join a monastery.

Besides, you won't catch my underwear

next to a trophy case.

- No.

I wouldn't do that to you.

- Nikki, you still trying to play or what?

- Yeah, it's on my to do list.

- Oh, you tryin' to join a bougie club, huh?

Oh, you gonna have to max out

your pop's credit card for all of that.

- Uh-uh.

No need for all that.

I have persuasive talents of my own.

- Just like you and every other woman on this campus.

- I don't know about the others,

but I don't need anyone to open doors for me.

- Bullshit, man.

- Think I'm playin'?

- Listen, I'm just sayin'.

You got a better chance

of smashing the most popular dude

on campus for all that.

- No need for all that.

Not my type of crowd anyway.

Besides, you won't catch me getting knocked down

like some drum line or something.

- Aight, you say that now,

but if the opportunity arose,

I guarantee you you'd grab onto it.

I'm just being serious.

Look, we all know it ain't always about

what you know to get yourself

through that door.

For sure, how you think most them girls

got them high paying jobs?

We know it ain't the smarts.

For real.

'Cause I know for sure all them girls

don't have a 3.8 GPA.

[door closing]

- Hey, my boy, what's up with you man?

You good?

Oh, you not that good.

Ronnie not that good.

Always.

- I'm about to go smoke man.

- How many fights you gonna keep getting into, man?

- I don't wanna talk about it man.

- Jesus Christ, man, what's going on?

- Man, what's up with those two?

- Man, you know, their usual.

- Man, that dude just needs to give it up, man.

Didn't he just get out of a relationship?

- Look, we all know he been liking Nikki

since high school, bro.

Man, just consistent, bro,

you know that's all it is.

- Yeah, I hear you,

but we all gotta catch hell every once in a while.

Except for me.

[door closing]

- What up, what up.

- What's up with you?

- Karey bringing it.

- Karey, unh!

Hey, but look, I'm not gonna lie, man.

I honestly think that Nikki might be

on the sweet side, bro.

- Really?

- Really?

Like when the last time

you ever see her with a man?

And then on top of that,

we not fixing to say oh, it's because she's bougie

as to why she can't get one.

- I mean, maybe that's just what she likes.

- Yeah, I guess so, bro.

- Well, I mean for now,

I just don't think that a woman can say

that she doesn't like something

that's she's never had.

- Of course they can.

- I doubt it.

- Oh, really.

- Okay, so have you ever taken six inches

from another man?

- Hell, no, what the hell I look like?

- Oh, okay.

So what makes you so sure

that you wouldn't like it?

- Hell, you trippin'.

Look, I could say the same for you.

- You very well could.

- Here y'all go again.

- Man, what's you trying to say?

- I'm just sayin'.

If y'all gonna be in here, you know,

with the ruthlessness

and the recklessness,

I might as well, you know,

have another come up.

You know what I'm saying.

I might as well just go ahead and quit my job

and live off y'all.

- Listen, all I'm trying to say is

I don't think that a woman

that's never had a good six inches

in her life can say that she doesn't want something

that she's never had.

- Oh, dang.

[hip hop music]

Damn.

Man, that's a whole lot...

Damn bougie all at one time.

- Yo, who is that?

- That's them Gammas.

Mm, mm, mm.

- They aight.

- Aight?

Man, look, it look like they done did

an upgrade on they intake.

- Yeah, you can say that again.

- [Tommy] You could say, hey, man, chill out.

- What he trying to say is

them ain't the type of shawties you wanna

associate yourself with.

Man, I heard they crazy bougie.

- You know they only accept virgins, right?

Just so they don't have any holes

in their organization.

- You know they fuck with niggas

with real money.

- I guess that rules you out.

- Fuck you.

- Hey, you know you ain't right for saying that.

- Virgin or not.

I don't care what their intake requirements are.

I say it's time to make history.

- Dang.

Look like Ronnie ain't the only one lurking.

- Give it up, K.

You know they don't swing that way.

- What makes y'all so sure.

I mean, y'all said half of them never

had something good anyway, right?

- I guess.

- Something good as in long and thick?

- Well, I guess that means you're disqualified.

- Now I know I don't need

to bust out my photo album.

- Oh, yeah, that's cute.

I'll be sure to pull my track record, too,

so we can compare the two.

- Yeah, let's do that.

So we can see that clearly,

your track record doesn't compare to mine.

- You're right, you know I prefer

to wake up to a dime,

rather than the fours and fives

that you like to pull.

Clearly one of mine is worth 10 of yours.

- Damn, K, sound like you trying

to take the throne.

- I mean, I'm just saying.

It takes a woman to know a woman

and since I know women,

I have a better chance at making history

than any man would.

- You trying to bet something on that.

- You already know, I ain't never run

from the competition.

- Well, shoot, let's go ahead

and get it poppin' then.

50, hundred, hundred and fifty.

- Keep going. - 200.

- Keep going. - Three.

- What's up.

- What the hell are y'all doing?

- Don't worry Nikki.

It's just a little friendly bet.

And you already know I ain't afraid

of a challenge.

- Y'all are crazy.

- I'm a poker player.

Of course I'm crazy.

I got a hunnert that says I'll

get a gamble before you.

- A hundred?

That's it?

Look, I'll raise you 500.

Now are you calling or are you folding?

- I'll re-raise you a thousand.

- Okay, now you talking.

It's about time you grew some nuts Ron,

I'm proud of you.

- Hold up.

That ain't just a couple of dollars.

How you know ain't nobody gonna lie

just to get the thousand?

- The winner's gonna have to get it on video.

- Only if I get to tape her and her friend.

What? I'm just saying.

- Y'all sure y'all wanna do this?

- Don't worry.

It's just a little friendly competition.

- Sounds good to me.

Is that all?

- Not yet.

If I win,

you gotta kiss a boy.

- You cool with that, K?

- Yeah, that's cool on one condition.

If I win, you gotta kiss a boy, too.

- What? - Oh, hell no.

- What? Are you afraid?

How you know you won't like it

if you never had it.

- Oh, shit.

Hey, that's starting to get better

than reality TV.

Let the games begin.

- Man, look forget all that.

Where y'all tryna go tonight?

- I heard there's this house party poppin' off.

Y'all tryna go or what?

- [Nikki] Say no more.

[upbeat funk music]

- So I told her, look,

I don't care how old he is.

Ain't nobody sleeping with him

for no hundred dollars.

- Really? And what did he say?

- He had the nerve to offer me Applebee's.

The nerve of these niggas.

- Are you kidding me?

I mean at least plan something

with a little forethought into it, something.

- Anh, anh.

My mama taught me better than that.

I'm not one of these basic hos out here

eating at these low class restaurants.

- Right.

- You know, at least get a bitch

a TGI Friday's or something.

You know they got that two for one special.

Might get you some a little bit.

- [Karey] You are so stupid.

- I'll be right back.

- Hello, how are you?

[dramatic music]

- What do you think about this?

- Huh? It depends.

- On?

- The event, the occasion, the color, et cetera.

- It's nothing special,

just another college party.

- Oh, yeah, what school?

- GA State.

- Really?

I go there, too, pre-med.

- [Flex] Family doctor?

- Not exactly. I am going to be a surgeon.

- Oh, nice, so the black Madison Grey's on deck.

- Exactly, except for this time,

you will not catch me falling

for no Mr. McDreamy.

- Oh, you never know.

I'm sure once your rings go sky high

when their male patients

get their physicals with you.

- Oh, yeah?

Well, why not the female ones?

- Well, them, too.

Ain't a person on this planet

that can't admire a pretty smile.

Look like I'll take this.

- All right, nice selection.

I'm sure you'll be leaving with something.

And if not, you'll at least catch

a few pretty ones looking.

- Maybe.

Question is, did it catch you looking?

- Look at you trying to flirt, aw.

- I know, but did it work?

- I hope not, because I would hate

to catch my girlfriend at work

flirting with someone else.

- My bad, I didn't know.

- Of course you didn't.

It's okay.

I'm sure you didn't hear all the ring tones

and vibrations from all those missed calls

she was getting.

- Look, I don't even have my phone on me like that.

- Really? - Yeah.

- Let me guess.

You left your phone in the car.

I suggest you come up with another excuse

because you've used that one already.

- I think I'll just take this and go.

- That's a good idea.

- It's a pleasure meeting you?

- Karey.

- Flex.

- No need to feel any kind of way.

She's not on the market anyhow.

[Flex scoffing]

- Karey?

I suggest you take your partner elsewhere

where we don't have to hear

this Jerry Springer shit.

- [Karey] Okay.

- Thank you.

I'll be right with you.

- Outside, now.

What the hell are you doing out here?

This is where I work.

- I was trying to call you

to see what you wanted me to bring you for lunch.

Looks like I was unsuccessful.

- It looks like the only thing

you're gonna be successful in

is getting me fired.

- What you want me to do?

I told you I was coming up here

to take you out for our lunch date.

- Look, that's fine and all,

but you can't come up here

parading around like some angry black woman,

okay, you could've called the store.

- Look, I just wanted to spend a little time with you.

Look, that's fine and all,

but the way you talked to our customer was crazy.

Look, you can't just assume

that I'm gonna talk to someone

just because I'm conversing with them.

- Well, given your trifling history,

I think I have a valid reason to think that way.

- You know, I told yo that shit

to be honest with you.

If you can't accept it,

then don't fuck with it.

- Okay, babe, I'm sorry.

- That's fine.

- Well, how about later on?

- Look, I already got plans with the crew.

- How about afterwards?

- That's fine, but I can't be too long.

You know I have to study.

- Well, maybe tomorrow night or something?

- Look, I gotta get back inside, all right?

- Okay, I'll see you later.

- Yeah.

- Okay, see you later.

- All right.

Thinking about opening my own spot

on the West Coast anyway.

- Mm.

So you got 250,000 to invest?

- Not yet.

- Well, you better start saving your pennies.

Speaking of which, you better win this best.

'Cause this Swisher Sweet ain't gonna

be the only thing you got your lips around.

- Yeah, man, gimme my shit.

- But I'm for real, though.

You sure you wanna do this?

- I'm pretty sure I'm sure.

Why wouldn't I be?

Karey's my nigga, you know.

I'm not about to let some silly ass bet

come between us.

You know what I mean?

It's all fun and games.

- That's not what I'm talking about.

- Well, what's the problem?

- Look.

Women could see what men can't see, okay?

It's just like some sixth sense shit

or something like that.

I just want you to be careful, okay.

- Well, you say what you gotta say.

- Just be careful.

Everything that glitter ain't gold.

- Listen, I hear what you saying and all that,

but just remember that.

I read people for a living, all right?

And I play my cards based off

of what my gut tells me.

- Mm.

- Based on that mark on your face,

your stomach's making a fool of you, bruh.

[both laughing]

- Listen, I'll remember that

the next time I deposit another bankroll

in my account, just remember that.

Scared money don't make money.

Remember that.

- I'm going.

- What's up Dante?

- Oh, hey, what's up?

- I haven't seen you in a while.

- Yeah.

I'll be up there in a minute.

- Mm-hmm.

- So, um, are you the type

to grind against the wall

to intimidate me from talking to you?

Or are the type to kind of look around

and see what everybody's wearing?

- Perhaps all of the above.

- Interesting.

- Interesting? How so?

- Well, I mean most women wouldn't tell

their most dark and intimate secrets

to my species.

- What can I say?

I'm one of a kind.

- I think I'm already convinced.

- Are you sure? You barely know me.

- Let's just say that I have a knack

for reading people.

- So what are you, psychic or something?

- Almost.

I'm a poker player.

- Really?

That's means you like to make money.

- Only when it involves increasing

the money in my bank account.

- So what's your flavor of choice?

- I don't have a flavor of choice.

I just know what I like when I see it.

- Likewise.

- Ronnie.

- Sarriyah.

- Sarriyah.

Might I get you a drink or something?

- No need for that.

I don't know you well enough.

- I guess I'll have to know you

in order to offer you a drink?

- Yes.

You can't just trust anyone these days.

But since you're were gentleman enough to offer,

I'll bum a smoke with you.

- Let's do it.

- Engineering.

That means you're good with numbers.

- I guess I'm okay with them.

What about you?

- Psychology.

- Psychology?

- Mm-hmm.

- What made you decide to get into that?

- I was always intrigued by how the mind works.

- The mind is definitely intriguing.

So let me ask you this.

What was on your mind during hell week?

- Shit, the only thing I can think of

is how far these women are gonna push me

before I snap.

- Well.

Obviously you didn't.

So was it worth it?

- So far I can say it was.

But then again, it's too early to tell.

You planning on pledging?

- Who me?

Hell no, man, I don't bow down for no man.

- So you think wearing letters

are punks or something?

- I didn't say that.

- So what do you mean?

- I was just saying that I don't-

- It's okay.

I was just playing with you.

I can see where you're coming from.

A lot of people may not look at it the way we do.

- So what made you decide to do it?

- I grew up in a house full of straight men

and I wanted sisters.

- That's deep.

- This looks like my cue.

- Ronnie?

- My bad.

I'm not good with names.

- For now.

- [Sarriyah] So you planning on me remembering your name?

- You will soon enough.

- See you.

[upbeat funk music]

[phone ringing]

- Hello?

Oh, hey, babe.

Oh, pretty good, better than most.

Well, for one, the drinks weren't watered down.

Well, I mean besides Ronnie,

I didn't bring home any strays, so,

you don't have to worry.

Thanks, babe.

Everything went good.

I just about to get ready for work, so.

All right, bye.

That was Shelley.

[gentle music]

So, I heard the party was nice last night.

- Something like that.

- Why you trying to be modest?

I mean, word on the street says

you trying to make moves

on one of the new girls.

- Man, don't worry about that.

Just make sure you don't fall behind.

I'm a close the deal in about a week.

- A week?

You that confident, huh?

- I'm about my money in case you forgot.

- Just make sure you cross the finish line this time.

- My work speaks for itself.

- If you say so.

- So what's up with Shelley?

- I mean, nothing much, it's all good.

- Man, quit bullshitting,

you know what I'm talking about.

She is cool or whatever,

but you might want to tell her to chill a little bit.

- I mean, she does have a little bit

of a jealousy thing going on,

but it's not that bad.

- You sure?

Don't let things get outta control.

Next thing you know, she gonna be tapping

your phone like old girl did on "Power."

No need to worry about that.

Yeah, aight.

- What's going on?

- That's my cue.

- [Karey] Your cue?

- Yeah, I smell grits, eggs, bacon,

with a touch of syrup.

- You greedy.

- Yeah, aight. - Yeah, aight.

- Let's go.

- Good morning, Ms. Gill.

Sure smells good in here.

You got croissants, too?

- Hey, Ron.

By the looks of it, you look like you need

a home cooked meal.

How is everything?

- You can sure say that again.

But, you know, same old same old.

- I hear that you are on your way

to getting a full ride in grad school.

- Yeah.

It looks like that.

I just gotta close this deal.

- Still playing poker, I see.

- [Ronnie] Yeah, something like that.

- Maybe you just need to find a way

to stay outta trouble.

- Mm.

I mean, I don't really have to look very far

because where I'm from,

trouble seems to find me.

- Why is that every black man's excuse

that come from the hood?

- Maybe because that's where

all the trouble resides.

- You know, I could probably pull some strings

for you at my job.

We can use someone like you.

- Me?

Working a traditional nine to five?

For minimum wage?

Ah, you see, me going that route

is exactly what's gonna keep me in the hood.

- That sounds a whole lot better

than gambling your life away

for a few poker chips.

- Ms. Gill, believe me.

It's never just a few poker chips.

- Anyways.

How's your grandma doing?

- She's doing pretty good.

How about yourself?

- Well, outside of these god awful hours,

everything's fine.

- You look like you can use

a little stress reliever.

[Ms. Gill laughing]

- If by drinking that poison

that you like to dive into,

I'm think I'm a take rain check.

- That's not even what I mean, Ms. Gill.

I'm just saying I think

that you should get out of the house sometimes.

You know, going to God's house is great.

I mean, it's awesome, but at the same time

I know you wanna create some memories

that you can share with your grandchildren

once they start coming.

I mean, what's a life without exciting stories to tell?

Not a life at all, really.

- You know what, that's my cue, how 'bout that?

I'm a holler at you.

Aight. - Aight.

- You right.

But the way my child is going,

I don't look for anything like that anytime soon.

- Yeah, I know what you mean,

but maybe that's something

you should talk to her about.

Although I know it probably won't do very much good.

- I'm not gonna waste my time.

This.

Is all I need.

- I cannot argue with you there.

Nah, seriously, though.

You need to get out of the house.

As a matter of fact, I'm gonna take you out.

- I'm not so sure about that.

- Why, you ain't got nothing else to do.

- Okay.

Why not?

When and where are we going?

- Listen, don't you worry about that.

You just make sure you don't flake on me tonight.

- Mister, you have yourself a deal.

Let me get you a plate.

- See, now that's what I'm talking about.

A couple of them croissants up there.

[upbeat funk music]

- Yo, Ron, where you at man?

Call me back.

- Oh, I didn't expect to find you here.

- Uh, well, last time I checked

it is our place of higher learning, right.

- I know that, but I didn't expect

to see you.

- Well, here I am.

- Looks like you got your eyes on something else.

- Huh?

Oh, I mean, something like that.

- [Flex] Want me to introduce you.

- Introduce me?

What makes you think I need any introduction?

- Sweat beating down your face, that's all.

Besides it's that that time of season anyway.

- Which is?

- Cuffin' season.

Look I'm just messing with you, come on.

You keep your head in the books all day?

- Of course.

Gotta keep them grades up to compete.

Besides, there ain't much to look at until now.

- Just trying to run game.

If you really felt that way,

we coulda been skipped small talk.

- That's what I'm doing.

Besides, who said I was talking about you?

- Oh, it's like that, huh? - Mm-hmm.

- It's all right, you'd be missing out anyway.

Anyhow, this is-

- Karey.

- Yeah.

- [Woman] I know who she is.

- Is that a good thing or bad?

- Well, it depends on your performance

and behavior to see if you confirm the rumors.

- That's my cue.

I'm a catch y'all later.

- So, what's your major?

- Psychology.

- Oh, yeah.

So you're trying to be...

- A family psychologist.

- What made you pick that major?

- Well, I like to work with children

and families and my upbringing wasn't

in the best of environments,

so this is my way of giving back.

So what about you?

What's your major?

- I'm majoring in pre-med

with a minor in economics.

- Okay.

Because?

- Well, as far as the economics part goes,

I mean, I like numbers.

I'm pretty good with calculation.

- So I take it you're always weighing a risk and what not?

- Yeah, something like that.

- So is that why you like to play poker?

- You done your homework I see.

- You could say that.

So, I hear you're quite the player,

the poker player.

- I'm okay at it.

I mean, it keeps money in my pocket, so.

- So, what can you bring to the table?

- Okay, straight to the point I see.

- I don't think there's any other way to be.

Why should I spend my time with you?

- Excuse me?

- Why should we let you in our organization?

- Oh, wait, you think I wanna be a part of your sorority?

Nah, sweetheart.

Thanks, but no thanks.

- Really?

- I mean, I can't deal with female groups.

That's just too much drama, not for me.

- Well, it's a shame.

It would be nice to have a cute face on our team.

I really like it when people care about their money.

Speaking of money, I gotta get back to it.

Let me see your phone.

DM me sometime.

[dramatic music]

- Ronnie.

- How you doing?

- Nice to meet you.

Ronnie, too.

Never mind then.

- All right, guys.

Everyone have their cards?

All right, so I don't think we need

a reminder of how this game is to be played, correct?

All right.

Gentlemen, do we have an understanding?

- Understood.

- Indeed.

[upbeat funk music]

- All right, guys, looks like

a pair of queens matched the pot.

- [Man] Shit.

- Good game.

- Yes, thanks man.

- And then there were two.

- You know, at some point in time

that luck gonna run out.

- Is that what you tell yourself

to make yourself feel better?

- No, that's just what I tell everyone

before they lose that big pot.

Better be careful, bruh.

- Why is that?

- Because you have no idea what I'm capable of.

- Yeah, what makes you think that you know me

better than I know you?

- You see, I know your type man.

You the type to try to take big risks.

You know what I mean?

You don't even think before you put all your chips in.

Man, that's what's gonna cost you.

Look, because at some point in your life,

you're gonna make a bet

that your ass can't cash.

So, yeah, I know your type real well.

- I'm all in.

- I call.

[man laughing]

My point exactly.

You know, I can only imagine

the trouble that you got in

when you was growing up, man.

- [Ronnie] All young boys get into trouble growing up.

- [Man] Nah, not like you, bruh.

- All right fellows.

Looks like this is it.

- Ooh.

Not quite.

- Looks like this just took a turn.

- Damn.

Again.

Almost.

- Last one.

Three of a kind beats pocket kings.

- Yeah, you know me quite well.

You know the guy that just took all your money.

But you know.

Don't take it personal, though.

You just lost from a player

that's better than you.

Here, here's a little tip for you.

It should be more than enough

to Uber your sorry ass back home.

Rule number one.

Never play someone that has nothing to lose.

[upbeat funk music]

- Maybe not nigga.

Gimme the shit.

Bitch.

- Don't end up a victim.

Back the fuck up.

- All right, all right, all right,

just take it easy.

- Take it easy.

- Oh, yeah, take it easy little mama.

[punch striking]

- Shut the fuck up.

Who asked you to speak.

- All right, bitch, geez.

All right.

- Let's try this once again.

- [Man] Why you keep hitting me.

- You speak when I allow you to speak.

Good.

Now where's the money.

- Old boy took it.

- What right do you have to take it?

- Wait, I didn't have a right to take it, okay.

- Look at you.

Got all the makings of a good bitch.

Look sweet enough to.

I'm a call you Betty Crocker.

So listen here, Betty.

If I were you, I'd get the fuck

outta here right now.

And if I catch you around here again,

I'm a empty the clip next time.

And don't think for a second

because I'm a woman I won't do it.

- All right.

- You must be the luckiest guy I know.

- Hey, man, look, the reason I don't lock my door

is 'cause y'all coming in here

every five minutes.

I ain't gotta get up every time.

- [Karey] What's good fellas.

- Okay, don't come up in here with that.

Don't come up in here with that.

- You about to lose anyway.

- Look, tell he's about to get that ass beat.

- I see.

- Not even on my worst day, boy.

- All right, here it is.

Mm.

Yes, sir.

My guy, throw me my money.

You know what I'm saying.

This is what I like.

Hey, look at the rate you going.

You gonna have me pay off Sallie Mae

sooner than I expected.

- Bro.

- Probably about two years.

- Damn, Tommy, another one.

- Karey, look.

Look K, don't start.

- Why you glowing like it's Christmas?

- Damn, is it that obvious.

Hell, yeah, you glowing, glowing,

like you so bright, I could put

you on top of a Christmas tree.

- Man, get outta here.

- I'm just saying.

Who is she anyways?

- Terry.

- Terry from the Gammas?

- Yeah.

She's the one, y'all.

- Ooh.

You might as well fuck Beyonce, too while you at it.

- Oh, please believe,

she's somewhere on a list, too.

Don't get it twisted.

- Okay.

What happened to Shelley?

- Man, I just can't deal with that whiny type.

Not to mention the stalker type either.

And besides, that extra thousand dollars

is gonna have my resume looking real nice.

- I don't know about all that.

- What's that supposed to mean?

- It means he doesn't think you and Ronnie

both were serious about this bet y'all got going on.

- Why wouldn't we be?

- I mean, 'cause y'all old friends, like,

we don't want y'all fiending over some money,

you feel me?

At the same time,

you need to definitely watch out

for that little Gamma that you got,

'cause you know what they say about those Gammas.

They always turn people out.

- Yeah, honestly, you might as well

just join the organization.

- Oh, hell, no, that is not my thing.

- What's wrong with pledging a sorority?

- I didn't say nothing was wrong with it.

I just see them hos as the uppity

and bougie type, that's all.

- Speaking of bougie.

What's up Nikki.

- Not a damn thing.

- How's the search going Nikki?

- Tough.

I still have to write an entrance letter

and I haven't even gotten a mentor yet.

- What, you better talk to Karey.

She got the plug already.

- Really?

- For sho'.

- Damn K, you been holding out this whole time.

- Look, I just me the woman today, relax.

Pipe down.

- So who is she?

- Terry Williamson.

- Okay.

What?

Okay, roll up, so you tryna fuck her, right.

- Something like that, something like that.

- Well, you better get in line

'cause many have tried and failed.

- Okay, well, it sounds like

you been hanging around

with a bunch of losers to me.

- Doesn't say much about y'all.

- Know what, whatever.

What y'all getting into this weekend?

- You know me, man,

like I'm a be just chillin' out.

Prolly at the bowling alley or something.

- Yeah, I got a shawtie I'm tryna to meet

after this interest meeting for the Gammas.

- Wait.

Interest meeting.

They had an interest meeting.

- Yeah, it's about that time.

You know.

Why, are you interested?

- Oh, no.

Not my crowd, I just didn't know how it worked.

- Basically what happens is

they have an interest meeting every year

and, you know, they have the girls come out there

and stuff like that and you know how

they be looking.

- Yeah, yeah.

- And then they go in there

and they think that they, you know,

got a fair shot, but they really don't.

They already know who it is that they picking

before they even bring the girls out there, so.

You should go down there

and see what's up, it may benefit you.

- Oh, no, no uh-uh,

this is not my type of thing, so,

but anyway, I'm gonna get going

and I'll see you guys later.

Peace.

- Aight, yeah.

[upbeat funk music]

- Good evening madam.

- Thank you, but I'm not interested.

I have a boyfriend.

- Boyfriend?

No, it's not like that.

I was trying to invite you.

- Okay, let me stop you right there.

I don't mean to be rude,

but I just don't have any time to spend.

- Well, it's not like that.

What I wanted to do was invite you out

to our church services tomorrow night.

We'll have an interesting meeting

for anyone that may be interested

in going on a free trip to Korea

to help tutor some kids.

- Oh.

Okay.

Well, sorry.

I just don't really do the church thing

and I've kind of had my fair share of fake people.

- I completely understand,

but if you change your mind,

don't hesitate to stop by.

- Thanks.

But, no thanks.

- There's no need to be ashamed.

I could've happened to anyone.

So who were those guys?

- Just some dudes I know from around the way.

- I can see that.

The question is which around the way

have you been mingling in?

- I mean it's not really hard to tell.

You see where I stay.

- You ever thought about moving?

- Moving.

Of course I have.

But I haven't exactly been in a situation

where I'm able to just up and leave, you know.

- Sounds more like an excuse to me.

What you expect me to say?

That I understand.

At the end of the day, the only thing

that matters is the end result.

You can't tell me that you're willing

to risk your earnings to play poker,

but too scared to move outta the hood.

- You're right about one thing.

I am lucky.

But it doesn't really look like

I'm having much of a choice

being that my rent money was in that bag,

which I'm already two months behind in paying.

Where'd you bring me anyways?

- A place that's a whole lot safer

than where you just came from.

- [Sorority Girl 1] So who's next on the list?

- [Sorority Girl 2] That's a cute picture.

- [Sorority Girl 1] I'm not too impressed with that one.

- Okay.

We have Hederina George.

She's a major in political science

from Orlando, Florida.

Says here that she wants to continue

the tradition of Gammas in her family.

She's been around since she was four.

- Right.

- She has three community service awards

through her church and...

Yeah, she has as lot of good source..

- I don't know, what do you think?

- I mean, it sounds nice on paper,

but I don't know this chick.

- I haven't seen her around anywhere.

- [Sorority Girl 2] Yeah, next.

- Well, right here we have Nikki Tremaine.

She's from Miami, Florida.

She has a degree in fashion design.

She has a GPA of a 3.3 and three letters of recommendation.

Says here she was an MVP from last season of volleyball.

Her hobbies are working out and swimming.

- Don't like that post.

Let me see.

Yeah.

I mean, have you seen her around or anything?

- I mean, I've seen her around.

She acts like she's too good and guess what?

- What?

- She hangs out with Remy and Tommy.

- Wait, is she that redhead chick?

Oh, my gosh.

I mean the only time I've ever seen her

is when she's been toe down at the club.

I mean, she does stay on that side

if you know what I mean.

- Exactly.

And her resume isn't even up to par.

- I mean does she have anything

through service at least?

I don't see it in here.

I don't know.

I mean more than a GPA and an MVP.

- [Sorority Girl 1] Right.

- I mean if the only time I'm gonna see

this chick is when it's time to pregame,

that's a problem.

I mean it'd be nice

if we had someone with a connection

to the church, you know. - Exactly.

- Something useful, but I don't know.

We can least put her in the maybe pile

'cause at least she's pretty.

We put her in the maybe,

but right now I'm just...

- Good evening ladies.

Hi, I'm Nikki Tremaine.

Nice to meet you.

I just wanted to invite you guys

to a little event I'm hosting at my church.

- Okay, what church.

It's right there.

- St. Matthews Church.

- [Nikki] That one, yes.

- And what exactly do you do?

- I am the event coordinator there.

- Interesting.

I've never seen you there before.

I've been there for three years

and you've never been around.

- Yes, well, with all the partying

and studying done, I am now able

to give back to the community

and especially to the Lord.

- Can't argue with that.

- Anyhow, I just wanted to invite you guys

to see if you would be interested

in coming to support it.

- Okay, do you have any extra flyers?

- No, that's my last one, I'm so sorry.

But, it was nice meeting you ladies

and I hope to see you there.

- Okay.

- Toodles.

- Can you believe her. - I can't.

- At least she's connected to the church.

I'll give her that.

[upbeat funk music]

- Damn.

She thinker in a stickup.

- Boy, you ain't never lie.

Look at it.

- Let me see, zoom in, zoom in.

Ooh, whee, I gotta give it to you K,

you pull this one off,

I'll have to call you the real MVP.

- Look, don't let Ronnie hear that, though.

- Yeah, look Ronnie ain't gotta worry

about all that, you know what I'm saying.

- Look, both of them can get it either way.

As a matter of fact, hey, K,

can you put me on as soon as you get it.

- Look, we'll see about all that.

But as of right now,

I'm gonna have to cuff this one y'all.

- Cuff, are you playing cuff?

Oh, you gonna love,

I never took you as the type.

- I don't know man,

this one's vibe just seems different.

- Oh, different.

- So what is it?

It's the tits?

Nah, it's the thighs.

- No, bruh, it's that ass. - It's the ass.

- Negative, negative gentlemen.

Look, it's that smile and that pretty face.

Just look at it, damn.

- What about fat ass pussy print?

See, here I am thinking you're damn day

is looking at my picture

and you about to leave the floor looking

at the next bitch.

- Man, look at the time, it's time to go.

Come on man, we gotta go.

- So you just gonna leave me.

- Catch you later, K.

- We both out.

- Really!

Look, I was just, I was just looking.

- I see you telling one half of the truth,

but the better question would be

are you fucking her?

- No, I'm not fucking her.

- By the way your face is, I couldn't tell.

What happened to us hooking up?

- I just got caught up on something.

- Like what?

Hanging over at Tommy's place?

Being here is more important than hanging with me?

See.

That's what I'm talking about.

How you expect me to hold up

my end of things and be strong

when you can't even hold down

your end of the bargain.

You know what?

Do you even wanna be with me anymore?

That's all I needed to know.

- Man, come on, stop being-

- Don't even waste my time.

Do you like her?

- Look, she's nobody.

Damn.

What?

- Really.

- Ooh.

How you doing?

- Let me holler at her.

- What you doing here Addison?

- I was hoping we could talk.

- Talk?

Talk about what?

- Can we go somewhere quiet?

- Come on, man.

- I sure hope it's a shower in this place

so I can clean myself.

Listen, for what it's worth,

I wanna say thank you because

you didn't have to do what you did, but you did.

- I know your type.

- Really?

- Yeah, really.

- I guess I need to work on my poker face

'cause it seems as if a lot of people

got me figured out these days.

- Maybe you do.

- You know, I'm really surprised

to find a girl like you here.

- Why is that?

- You know I always took it

that you sorority types were, you know,

uppity and rich.

- Well, for what it's worth,

not everything you hear about us

is entirely accurate.

We don't all come from prestigious backgrounds.

- Sure had me fooled.

- But to be curious, what do they say about us?

- You know, that you're rich, stuck up

and you only associate yourself

with the purists.

- Define pure.

- Let's just say the type

that hasn't given up their most precious asset.

- Well, you're close.

Most of us are pure

and some of us are stuck up, but not all of us.

But yes, most of my kind do have money.

- I figured.

So, how do you get your money?

- That's what you're about to find out.

- [Ronnie] I'm not quite sure I understand.

- Ronnie, this is a beautiful woman

who just came from a hard day at work.

Now she doesn't have time

to go to Blue Martini or some Bible study

to find Prince Charming.

She has a kid at home and wants

to fulfill her needs without any obligation

or attachment for that matter.

She has needs just like any woman or man has.

That's where you come in.

Don't worry about anything.

It's completely safe

and security's right outside.

And I don't think I need

to explain the kind of debt you owe me

from saving your life tonight.

Besides, I'm sure you could use the rent money.

Now I expect you to be a very good employee

and pay your debt.

Don't worry, there's money at the end

of the session.

She'll leave it on the nightstand.

You work for me now.
