YOU LOOK LIKE A PRINCESS.

[ CHUCKLES ]

I ACTUALLY FEEL LIKE ONE.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

THIS HAS BEEN ONE OF THE BEST NIGHTS

I'VE HAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE.

YEAH?

YEAH.

GOOD. [ CHUCKLES ]

NOW IT'S YOUR TURN TO SAY IT TO ME.

WHAT?

COME ON.

WHAT?

CANDACE, WHY DON'T YOU EVER LET ME KNOW HOW YOU'RE FEELING?

[ SOFT BALLAD PLAYING ]

'CAUSE WHERE I'M FROM, YOU DON'T SHOW PEOPLE THAT.

WELL, YOU ARE MILES AWAY FROM WHERE YOU COME FROM.

AM I?

YEAH, YOU TOLD ME ABOUT IT.

IT'S TIME TO LET ALL THAT GO, CANDACE.

LEAVE IT ALL BEHIND.

SOMETIMES I WISH I COULD.

WELL, WHY DON'T YOU?

HAVE YOU EVER HAD GASOLINE ON YOUR HANDS?

[ CHUCKLES ]

BELIEVE IT OR NOT, YES, I HAVE.

AND NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU WASH THEM,

YOU CAN NEVER GET THE SMELL OUT.

YEAH.

THAT'S WHAT IT'S LIKE.

NO MATTER HOW FAR I TRY TO GET FROM MY PAST,

I STILL SMELL IT.

YOU SEEM LIKE A GOOD GUY, OSCAR.

BUT I'M FROM THE HOOD.

SURE, I COULD SIT ON A CORNER

WITH THE THUGS ‐‐ OR WITH A BUSINESSMAN,

BUT TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH...

...I DON'T FEEL LIKE I FIT IN AT EITHER PLACE.

I KNOW WHERE YOU FIT IN.

WHERE?

RIGHT HERE.

WITH ME.

I JUST MET YOU.

YEAH, I KNOW.

BUT NOBODY HAS EVER MADE LOVE TO ME LIKE YOU DO.

[ CHUCKLES ] I KNOW THAT.

[ CHUCKLES ] YOU'RE SO ARROGANT.

I KNOW MY GIFTS.

YOU ARE A GIFT.

♪♪ I'M A COMPLICATED GIRL ♪♪

STOP.

‐NO, COME HERE. ‐STOP.

WHAT IS IT?

[ SIGHS ]

YOU'RE UP TO SOMETHING.

WHAT?

YOU ARE.

♪♪ I'M A COMPLICATED GIRL ♪♪

DAMN.

WHAT?

I RESCUED A PUPPY ONCE.

PIT BULL.

WHEN I FIRST FOUND HIM, HE WAS IN AWFUL SHAPE ‐‐

THAT HE WOULD RUN AND HIDE WHEN I CAME NEAR HIM.

LOUD NOISES MADE HIM URINATE ON HIMSELF.

HE WOULD ACTUALLY RUN FROM LIGHTNING.

HE WAS IN HORRIBLE SHAPE WHEN I FIRST GOT HIM.

ARE YOU CALLING ME A DOG?

NO, CANDACE.

WHAT I'M SAYING IS,

IS THAT YOU'RE WOUNDED.

AND JUST LIKE MY PIT BULL LEARNED TO TRUST ME

AND HE LOVED ME SO MUCH,

AND I LOVED THAT DOG TO DEATH...

LOOK, YOU'LL SEE.

I AM GONNA LOVE YOU TO DEATH.

AND TRUST ‐‐

LOVE ME?

YEAH. YOU'LL SEE.

I'M A GOOD GUY, CANDACE.

CAN WE GO BACK NOW?

OF COURSE.

TO THE HOTEL, PLEASE.

♪♪♪♪

[ DOOR OPENS ]

STARTING TO GET WORRIED ABOUT YOU.

IT'S ABOUT TO STORM OUT THERE.

QUINCY!

GRANDMA.

NEXT, ON "THE HAVES AND THE HAVE NOTS"...

CAN I PLEASE SEE MY GRANDBABY?

I'M SORRY.

PROMISE TO COME GET ME?

I'M ON MY WAY TO YOU.

You promise this time?

I DON'T WANT TO BE A FATHER LIKE THIS, MELISSA!

THEN HOW?

TWO MEN CAN'T HAVE A BABY, LAST TIME I CHECKED.

AND IN THAT SENSE, I WILL ALWAYS

HAVE ONE UP ON ANY MAN YOU CHOOSE.

DAD PUT ME HERE.

YES. I KNOW.

MOM, THIS PLACE IS CRAZY.

YOU KNOW HE'S GONNA COME

LOOKING FOR HIM AND TAKE THAT BABY.

THEN I'LL TAKE HIM OUT OF HIS DEAD ARMS.
