But you do not have a right to physicaly abuse another individual.

- Does it sound like Omar's taking full responsibility guys?

- [scoffs] No.

Try it again, Omar.

This time, could you recognize

I mean did you knock any of 'em out?

Don't mind them, Omar.

We're trying to work the kinks out in this room.

So evidently we have a ways to go.

Just channeling my inner Tiger.

Okay, Tiger.

Let Phil Mickelson show you

Hah, okay.

[smack]

[birds chirping]

- There it is.

- There it is.

I guess you know your course.

[laughter]

[upbeat Hip-hop]

Can I help you? Oh, [laughs]

I didn't mean to scare you, sorry.

I'm Rachel Bailey. I'm the leasing agent for this property.

Oh um... yeah, I was just doing some window shopping. A

it's a cool space.

Yeah. 3800 square feet. Only been on the market for 2 months.

I'm sure it'll go fast.

How much is it?

Four dollars and 50 cents.

[smirks] What, am I being punked?

I can pay that right now. Why is it so cheap?

Per square foot.

Oh. [chuckles]

Never mind. [truck beeping]

Well look, I'm about to show it to a prospective renter.

If you wanna take a look, I could kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

Really? Oh, okay...yeah.

- Thank you. - Okay.

[keys jingling]

So you have nice, high ceilings.

Nice floor to ceiling windows throughout, so you get a lot of natural light

from without.

Oh, hi. You must be Sammy. Thank you for coming.

Wassup?

- So like I was saying over the phone,

there is so much you can do with this space.

Ah if you don't mind me asking, what would you use this space for?

Oh we use it to make my movies.

Oh, that's exciting. What kind of movies?

Adult movies.

[faint gasp]

Well that's-- that's cool,

I guess. Um

and what about you, Keith?

Um I'm looking for a place to showcase my photography.

Non...adult

related.

Ah well thank you for sharing. We're

actually looking for someone to take over a 3-year lease, minimum.

[sighs] 3 years is a little tough for me. I was really hoping

for like um 3 months.

- [snickers] - I'm sorry. We don't do short-term leasing.

- Okay, um I'm so sorry. Thank you so much for your time, Rachel.

I really appreciate it.

[airy hip-hop beat]

You know what? I'm sorry. I left my applications in the car so I'm

just gonna run out and get it and I'll

- I'll be right back. - Okay.

- Okay. - Alright, I'll just do some measurements.

See what I'm gonna do with this camera and the couch.

Okay.

Keith, one sec.

[laughs] Look by law, I have to accept and process his application but

maybe you can fill one out as well?

And I can talk to the owner about a short-term lease.

Okay, sure. Yeah, that would be great!

Ah I can't make any promises but

it's worth a shot, right?

Of course. Yeah, um [laughs]

thank you.

Of course.

Heh.

[tranquil Hip-hop]

I hear you own a real estate company, Jarvis.

That's correct.

How's that goin' for ya?

Well, I just relocated the company 6 months ago when I moved back

to Atlanta from Connecticut.

So it's got it's growin' pains.

- Yeah...

and my father ran our company into the ground.

It was only worth 5 million when he finally passed it down.

Today we're operating a half billion in assets.

So I know your struggle.

Sounds like you had to build things from the ground up.

- Yep, and we wanna give

people like you an opportunity.

- People like me?

[laughs]

I'm listenin'.

We have a 100 million in capital.

specifically designated for the acquisition

of real estate, and we're looking for someone to manage

and advise on the allocation of those funds.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I'm just not interested in a working for someone.

I got employees dependin' on me.

- We're not interested in hiring you.

This is more of a consulting fee, to advise on potential property options.

Huh.

It's a great opportunity.

Why me?

In addition to Kevin boasting about how bright

and well-spoken you are,

we wanted to give a minority a chance to shine.

Well I appreciate the offer.

I'm gonna give it some thought if that's okay.

Sure, no pressure.

- Alright.

Just, let us know ASAP so

a little bit of pressure [laughs]

We are prepared to offer 50K in advance if that helps expedite

your decision.

It just might.

- Hey-yah! - Hey!

- Nice one! - There ya go.

- Point, Tiger. - [Jarvis] That's good.

- Nice shot. - Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

And the requirement for the duration of the class is what?

- No, no alcohol - No alcohol.

- That's right. No alcohol.

Ah, is there anything I need to sign?

- Ah...what do you mean?

Well a court order / probation officer form for your attendance?

Oh, no. No, I'm here on my own.

Is that surprising?

Well I mean it's rare that a Black um African-American

- ...look-- - No, you-- you can say Black.

Okay, I don't want to be offensive or anything like that.

It's a beautiful word...I'm Black!

with a capital B.

Okay...

a Black man!

Oh, oh okay. You don't have to say it that hard.

Ah ah ah [stammering]

Just kidding.

[deep sigh]

No I mean truly, it's rare that a Black man would be here on his own accord.

The stigma of mental health in the Black community is real.

Yeah... my cousin has special needs and um

[clicks tongue] y'all leave that boy alone. He a little touched.

- Oh... yo-- yo mama had a touch.

Quick little piece of advice, Miss Jane...

don't ever talk about a Black man's mama.

Oah, no, no, no, never.

I'm just saying I don't think they should be left alone. I think we should deal with them.

Black people...

acknowledge and seek out mental health at a fraction of the rate

of whites, with all the trauma of systemic racism.

And a lot of Black people seek out the church

rather than a medical professional.

Damn, you... you really know your stuff, Miss Jane.

[laughs] I hope so. I've been doing it for over 40 years.

Oh, quick question.

Is there really no alcohol?

[laughs] It helps to come with a clear mind.

Some people can't handle it, so we make it a rule

across the board.

Got it.

See you next week?

I'll try to see what I can do.

You know, since I don't have a court order.

["Summertime Fling" by Bocha plays]

Oh, well somebody's ready for the game.

Yeah, it just started.

Fellas gonna be here in a minute.

- Mm hm. - You workin' late?

Yeah, we're implementing new policies in HR and

guess who's entirely responsible for all of it?

- [Jarvis laughs] Uh huh. - Yeah, mm hm.

Hey, um I'm really happy that your meeting went well today.

You know I think it's a really good opportunity.

Yeah but somethin' still bothers me about it.

What? Like what?

Well, Bill asked me two questions

that bothered me.

Offers me a check for 50,000 because he wants to give us a chance.

I don't like handouts. You know that.

Mm hm, but I mean you put in the hard work.

You planted the seeds and

now you get to reap the rewards.

Plus he knows your value.

Mm... mm hm.

- Uh well, you know what? [doorbell rings]

That's them.

- Alright, hey. - Mm.

Good night. Enjoy babe. I will just be upstairs

pulling my hair out.

- But you look so cute when you do it though. - Okay.

- [TV] Crowd cheering

This you.

- Thank you. - Go and take that. That's you.

That's you. [game buzzer sounds]

- Alright.

Cheers.

- Technically I'm not supposed to be drinkin'.

What, are you on a cleanse or somethin'?

No, it's a requirement from my anger management therapist.

- Oh! So you went? - Oh.

How was it?

It was like goin' to scared straight.

[Jarvis laughs]

Well that sounds counterproductive but

I mean, you know you're doin' it for Caleb, right?

Yeah, I am...

but I can see the value in it too.

- Hm. - Leh, listen...if you want,

yeah I can get you some apple juice in a sippy cup or somethin'.

- Or do you have some Capri-Sun? Would you like one of those?

[laughter]

[game buzzer sounds]

[exaggerated laughter]

You got jokes? You got jokes?

- Oh! - You got jokes?

- No, it's okay. - Someone needs a nap.

I'm goin' home.

- Oh come on! - I'm not doin' this. I'm not doin' this.

[instrumental Hip-hop music]

- Okay.

For Ari?

I'm guessin' you didn't check the driver's profile.

Gregory?

What the hell? Is this some kind of joke?

Tsh, I was thinkin' the same thing.

I'm still waitin' for the punch line.

[laughter]

- Mm.

I was gonna cancel the trip.

Why would you do that?

Uh...

I mean pickin' up my ex in an Uber isn't necessarily

one of my greatest achievements.

Mm.

Well...

it's nothing to be ashamed of.

I mean... if you became a rapper

and were sellin' mix tapes at the underground then

yeah, I would look at you sideways.

[laughs] Yeah, that's my backup plan

if my rating falls below 4 stars.

Mm.

I guess I gotta see if I'm gonna take this ride or not.

["Wait a Minute" by Inside Tracks plays] - * Somehow it's fate

You can always cancel. - * somebody wait

- * maybe there's just [indistinct]

* Do you--

- Maybe this is none of my business,

I think it looked like Jamaican James back there.

James and I are

no longer together.

Oh.

I am sorry to hear that.

Tsh...yeah, right.

- No, I'm serious. I [laughs] I don't take satisfaction in

other people's misfortune.

* why go solo when you got someone to shine with

* and I ain't tryin' to--

- Man, the game is almost halfway over and nobody's

even scored yet.

That's why it'll be so electrifying when they do score.

[crowd chanting] [whistle blows]

Hey, I know it's not football season, but I'm down to

watch an old game on You Tube.

Yeah, or we could you know, go to You Tube...

type in paint drying.

- [Omar laughs] - Really?

- [laughter] - [phone rings]

on a cross for a little--

- Yo. - Omar...

okay, so I just felt the need to call somebody,

and let 'em know who I was with in case I come up missing.

- Who? - Ari.

Stop lyin'!

A I'm serious. No, no, no...she's my passenger.

- What?!

Is she right next to you right now?

No, no, she's in the wing spot, man. But

this is purely coincidental, man.

- That's wild. - Goal! Hey.

- Whew. [laughter]

- [laughter] - [Greg] Yo, that sounds like Jarvis.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Me and Keith stopped by to watch the hockey game.

Oh who's playin, The Pharaohs?

Yeah, how'd you know?

- Man, I love hockey, man.

I mean I really just watch it for the fights, but you know.

My invite must a got lost in the mail.

Ah look, it was last minute. Alright, me and Keith just came over for a little while.

Tssh, okay...whatever, man. Hey, I got- I gotta roll, I gotta roll, alright.

[heels clacking]

[sighs]

It's weird talking to you from back there.

I usually don't let my passengers sit in the front seat.

Really, Greg?

I almost split my dress tryin' to get in that backseat.

Okay,

just don't touch my radio.

Boy, the...you're the only person I know with a

disc changer. Why you, you don't upgrade it?

Yo, this is a classic.

6 CD's at the same time. Come on now.

- You're doin' too much. - [laughs] Okay.

Whatever. Here you go.

What's this?

Wings with extra barbecue sauce.

Your fave.

Thanks.

So...

are you ready to go home now?

Just...waitin' on you.

[engine starts up]

[upbeat Hip-hop]

[TV crowd cheers]

Well that was Greg.

You told him you was here?

No.

You did

with all that yellin' you was doin'.

You guys still have that thing?

No, we don't have a thing.

Alright?

It's like ever since I came back from Connecticut,

things just ain't the same with Greg and me.

Like I've changed or somethin.

[scoffs]

Look, I'm not sayin' you've changed, but

I am sayin' that I've never seen you this excited about hockey before.

- Greg actually likes hockey.

He said that? [crowd cheering intensifies]

- Oh oh oh, they fighting. Oh they fighting!

- Oh they're fighting. Come on! - Woa, hoa ho ho!

Oh yes!

- No, you. Finally, this is happening. - Yeah.

Oh, get him!

- Omar, yes. Finally! - They're fighting.

[Low melodic beat]

- [Greg] So you, you take over my radio,

- you eat your food in my car, you just mad... - Aw.

- ...comfortable tonight. Look at you. - It was so good.

I'm sure it was.

- I'll be sure to leave you the 5 stars and

a handsome tip for the pit stop, you know.

No need. The trip was 85 bucks so

I'm good.

Eighty...five bucks. Really?

Well yeah, there was a surge. Um

two times the normal rate.

You- you didn't see that

when you accepted the trip?

You gonna do me like that?

Wait, so it's my fault that you didn't read?

Wow. [laughs]

Wow.

Wait, are we

arguin' right now?

[smirks]

Just like old times.

Yep.

Just like...

old times.

Mm.

I'm glad you didn't...cancel the ride.

It's good to see you, Greg.
