(both moaning)

You like that, don't you? Yeah.

You like that? Let me show you these moves I got, girl.

I got these moves.

What the hell? Melanie?

(clears throat)

Melanie, this is not what I meant by "Can you please

let the cable guy in?"

Oh, she let him in all right-- all up in.

I know. I am so sorry.

This is ridiculous. Look, I'm sorry, okay?

One minute, he was showing me the premium channels, and...

Hey, I didn't order premium channels.

Hey, she got some nice boobs.

Aw, Melanie,

that's so sweet.

Okay, well, carry on.

No.

Take your rusty-ass tools and get up out of here.

I'm sorry, can you just...

leave?

Wait a minute, but you told me you loved me.

Okay, I got carried away.

Fine.

You know how many lonely ladies out there are waiting

for me to install my premium package, huh?

I'm the cable guy, baby.

Get it right.

Give me my tool kit.

You look like you can use some HD, ma'am.

Uh...

Okay, what the hell were you thinking, Melanie?

Girl, it's just another case of her not getting over Derwin.

And, sweetie, you're never going to be able

to move on by jumping from wiener to wiener.

Girl,

you have got to break this pattern of yours.

Mm-hmm.

What pattern? The pattern

of you going from one guy to another to another

so you don't have to deal with your real pain.

KELLY: And your standards are plummeting.

I mean, I understood when you went

from Derwin to Trey Wiggs, but then it was Jerome,

and then that weirdo, Dr. McHottie.

TASHA: Ugh. Now you done slip-slided

all the way down to the cable guy?

Oh, God, this is rock bottom.

Why? What's wrong with Derwin?

(sighs)

Are you serious?

Oh, this can't be

the first time you heard there was a problem with your name.

No, Janay, the only problem is

that not enough people name their babies Derwin.

Kids are cruel and insensitive... and stupid.

Aw, come here.

(chuckles)

But I'm still not going to name the baby Derwin.

(clucks tongue)

Okay, what do you want to name him?

I was thinking Price, like my last name.

Then, that way, the baby has both of our names.

Ho-Hold up.

Don't you know Price?

Th-Them kids get beat up before the Derwins.

Oh, okay, all right.

We can compromise.

We could always name the baby after Malik.

Oh, hold up. M-Malik?

Mm-hmm.

Okay, is there something you want to tell me?

Duh. Remember?

We promised to name the baby after him

when he set us up at Malik Mondays.

You know what, Janay?

A lot of people say things at Malik Mondays they don't mean,

like "I'm single,"

"I tested negative,"

"I'm on the pill."

(Janay scoffs, phone rings)

Yeah. That's funny,

but I still got you.

What? Didn't I?

Ooh, ooh, oh, yeah, a-and all this.

You love it. Ha, ha.

You love to think so.

Hello.

Hey.

I didn't know you were going

to be in town.

Tomorrow?

Um...

let me get back to you.

Okay, I'll call you later.

All right, peace. You, too.

(clears throat)

Wow.

That was a surprise.

Why? Who was that?

Hill.

Hill Harper, your ex-boyfriend?

Yeah. He's in town promoting his new book, and, um...

And, uh, what? What, he...

He wants to see me.

Mm.

Tomorrow.

Can I go?

(scoffs) What do you mean, can you go?

You don't have to ask permission. You grown.

I know. I just...

you know, I thought it'd be a good idea

to ask you for your permission

to see if it was cool with you.

You know, plus, you've been known to get a little jealous.

Yeah, that's probably true,

but, you know, you're fat now.

Derwin. (laughing): So it's all good.

That's not funny. Stop.

Okay, I'm all in.

Man, I fold.

Fold.

Let's do this. Oh...

(chuckles)

Really, Juvon, on the first hand, man?

Okay, maybe I'm not all in. Oh, what are you doing?

Hey. This ain't Texas Take-back. MALIK: Exactly. Don't tell me you bluffed

on the first hand with all your money.

I need this, y'all.

Oh, just show your cards, Monkey Johnson.

Come on, man. (Juvon chuckling)

A pair of eights.

Are you stupid?

(Juvon groaning)

What you got?

I got nothing.

(laughing): Come on!

Come on. I hate y'all.

Hey, y'all, is these wings safe to eat?

Last time I had Girl Melanie's wings,

I ended up with a nasty rash on the side of my mouth.

Yeah, right. That was from the wings.

(laughs)

I don't know about the chicken rash

on your mouth, but that Melanie was fine.

Damn fine-- finer than fine.

You don't mind if I talk about your ex like that, do you?

No, man. I'm... I'm.... I'm over her.

Oh, cool. Cool.

'Cause every time I saw Melanie,

I was like, "Bitch, you fine!"

(all laughing)

Juvon, man. Why you looking

at me like you're tripping now?

I'm just... MALIK: Hey, man.

Ding Dong ain't thinking about that girl no more.

Finally got himself a woman

that knows how to take care of a ball player.

Yes, sir. JASON: Yeah, you know what?

I thought I had one of those. I thought I had one of those,

but she was all "take" and no "care."

No, she wasn't. I frikking blew it.

I frikking blew it.

Yeah. That bitch was fine, too.

(laughs) Hey.

Well, Janay is the truth.

Okay?

You know, she caters to your boy.

She cooks for me, cleans for me, tucks me in at night.

And she reads you, uh, some bedtime stories, right?

(with mouth full): Let me see, let me see.

Letters to a Young Sister

by a Mr. Hill Harper.

(laughter)

Wait, is this...

is this Hill Harper, the-the television star?

(quietly): Yeah. Hill Harper, the one

who pals around with the president?

Hill Harper, the one

who used to have sex with your baby mama?

Hey. Yo, man.

He wrote that book.

He gave it to her last night.

Oh, I'm sure he did give it to her last night.

Let's see.

Oh, wait a minute.

What?

That's not all he gave her.

"Janay, I've waited

"for this reunion,

"lost without the inspiration

of this woman's work."

Dude, this is like a love poem.

Well, man, give me that. Interception, baby.

"Her strength, her beauty.

Alas, I must do something-something."

Ooh, "I'll be waiting

whenever, wherever, whatever you..."

What the hell? (laughter)

Maybe you're not the only one she's making chicken for.

ALL: Ooh...

Janay.

Yo, Janay.

Hey, foreword by Gabrielle Union.

Why are you yelling at me?

Explain why this is in the... in your boy's book.

Explain?

Aw, that's cute.

C-Cute?

That's it? Yeah...

"I'll be waiting for you whenever, wherever, whatever"?

Y-You think this is cute?

Obviously, she does.

(laughter)

Y'all, go ahead.

Look, it's just a list-- a list of Maxwell songs

that... that me and Hill used to like back in the day,

That's it-- all right?-- so don't trip.

JUVON: Yeah, Derwin, don't trip.

It was back in the day. (Jason laughing)

Yesterday.

Okay, one, two, three, bounce.

ALL: Aw...!

Party over. All right, you know what?

Let's take it upstairs to my place.

WOMAN: Virgil.

Virgil, don't go.

For God's sakes, Angela, Don't go.

don't make this harder than it already is. Virgil, please.

How am I supposed to go on without you?

And how is America supposed to go on without democracy?

But you just got back. Yes,

and I'll keep going back until every man, woman and child

in this world is free. Well, what if you don't come back?

What if you don't come back, Virgil?

I'm a Marine, Angela!

Marines always come back.

What if you don't come back? Shh.

Don't speak.

(gasps)

(moaning)

MAN: And cut.

(squeals) Fantastic, Keesha.

Yeah, but we said no tongue. Beautiful.

You're a true professional. Ugh.

Think I got a little lipstick right here.

Yo, uh... yo, Hill, can I get a second?

Yeah, I always got time for a young brother.

Richie!

"Believe and it can happen to you, too.

Much love, Hill Harper."

What?

No, I don't want no damn photo.

Man, I'm Derwin Davis, Janay's boyfriend.

Janay's boyfriend, Derwin.

Hey, nice to meet you, man.

What's up?

Don't be shaking my hand.

What's up is: I need to know

why in the hell you're writing love letters

to my girl, dude. No.

Derwin, Derwin, you don't bring drama to someone's job.

This is a professional place of employment. Al.

What?

Oh, so you can write letters, but you can't talk?

Yo, watch my leather, man. Richie!

I want the caramel Frappuccino with the whipped cream,

okay, and the sprinkles.

Last time, you forgot the sprinkles.

Oh, and put a little fiber powder in there.

I need to...

Hey, we can bring trees in from anywhere

to make Hollywood look like any city on Earth.

And we're coming up on stage two,

where they shot The Jeffersons.

Hey, yo, Tom Cruise, man, is this tour going to get me

anywhere back over near where they're shooting that war movie?

Uh, sir, you may not care,

but to some people,

George, Louise and Florence are national treasures.

Right?

Hey, yo, Hill.

TOUR GUIDE: Oh, oh, that's right.

Ladies and gentlemen, the star

of the new movie, Battle Call--

Hill... Harper!

Hey, everybody, thank you, yes.

I know I'm no Weezy, but I appreciate the love.

Thank you.

Hey, yo, Hill, man, I need to talk to you, bro.

Two minutes, no drama.

Sir, sir, right here.

I've just about had it up to here

with your disrespect for television and its icons.

Okay?

Hey, Dave, it's all right.

Let him through.

It's fine. No, let him through.

Yeah, chill out, Maverick.

Watch the leather.

Hey, can you give us a second?

Come here, Derwin.

Hey, bro.

Yeah? Real talk, Hill.

I really don't appreciate you trying to step to my girl.

Look, Derwin, no one is trying to "step to" your girl, okay?

But I think that's sweet,

and I also think that Janay is an amazing woman.

Mm-hmm. And I thought I'd just let her know.

That's why you write women nice notes.

You write them something

to make them feel good about themselves.

When's the last time you did that to her, huh?

Hey, look, man, don't be worrying about me

and Janay, all right? We are good.

Oh, you're good? Yeah. Okay, Derwin.

You came here to get into something,

let's get into it. What's up?

Okay, Janay told me about all the drama,

the ex-girlfriend and the back and forth.

So, tell me this.

When Janay has the baby, what's gonna happen?

You gonna marry her, huh?

You gonna let her move in?

She even gonna get a drawer? What?

Man, that's none of your damn business.

Exactly.

Exactly, dude.

It's your business, and you need to handle it.

Okay, I just want to make sure

that when the dust settles, Janay doesn't get hurt.

Man, what dust are you talking about?

Man, Janay ain't getting dusty.

Look, Derwin...

okay, when Janay told me about you and Melanie,

it doesn't sound like the last chapter

of that story's been written.

And I know a similar one, okay?

The guy hems and haws,

doesn't step up to the girl.

The next thing you know, she's gone.

Well, let... let me guess here.

That... that story's about you and Janay, huh?

Or you and Melanie.

Like I said, I don't think

that chapter's written.

So, what, now I'm the young brother you write letters to?

You know, Derwin, I wrote those books

so people wouldn't make the same mistakes I made.

And whether you believe it or not,

I got love for you, man.

So, you know what?

Check it out.

Yeah, it's an easy read.

And don't worry, there's pictures.

Be a man, Derwin.

Step up.

Take responsibility.

And be a man!

Uh... Janay, hi.

You look... crazy.

I mean, busy.

I was just cooking dinner.

Derwin's not here,

you know, so... Oh, well, that's okay.

I actually, um, just brought some gifts

for the baby that I wanted to drop off.

You know what?

I... I guess I can do that with you.

Thanks.

Um...

also, I just wanted to say congratulations.

And I wish all the happiness

in the world to you and Derwin...

and the baby.

Wow.

Must be getting kind of cramped in there.

(both chuckle briefly)

Derwin should be back soon.

Do you want to come in?

Uh, that's okay.

This is weird enough.

Yeah.

Um... okay, bye.

All right, bye.

Mel, what's... what's up?

Well, Mel-- Melanie--

was nice enough to bring by some gifts for the baby.

Oh, wow, you brought these?

Yeah, I heard that the...

the Baby Bjorn is the "bjest."

Wait a second.

Is this...

Doc... Dr. Grizzly?

Not anymore.

Now he's Football Grizzly.

Hut, hut!

I thought, uh, a boy might like that better.

Yeah, yeah.

Wow, um...

well, thanks, Mel.

I mean, I really... I mean, we

appreciate it.

Thanks.

Well, I'm just gonna get out of your hair.

That was kind of cool.

Ha, ha.

Yeah, cool.

Um... you know what's not cool, though,

is you stopping by Hill's job.

He called me.

Derwin, what the hell were you thinking?

Oh, so... what, you're defending him?

I knew I shouldn't have went to that lunch. I...

(sighs) I knew you wouldn't handle it. No, no, I...

I can handle it.

I just wanted to make it clear to your boy

that he was being inappropriate.

But then he starts Letters

to a Young Brothering me, talking about,

"Uh, when... Derwin, when are you

"and Janay gonna move in together?

"Uh, what's gonna happen after the baby comes?

"Uh, I got nothing but love for you, brother.

Be a man, be..." And all this crap.

You know what?

All of this right here is none of his business.

You and I... we are fine.

Derwin, who are you trying to convince?

Him, me or yourself?

Hill-- I mean, he's the one

who needs to know that you're happy.

I mean, you're happy, right?

Yeah... I'm happy, Derwin.

Think we've done a good job

of making the best of a very difficult situation.

Well, that's romantic.

Oh.

Hold up.

So, you're telling me

that standing in the hallway

watching you and your ex-girlfriend

make goo-goo eyes over some teddy bear

was romantic for me? What are you talking about?

Don't act like I don't recognize that stupid-ass bear.

It's the same bear that I found hiding in your drawer

and the same one you told me you threw away.

And as a matter of fact...

Hey, Janay.

Right now, you're getting a little excited.

I'm getting excited?

Oh, shouldn't I be?

It's just Dr. Grizzly...

keeps reappearing in this freaking house.

And you know what, it's trash now.

I don't think so.

I mean, Janay, come on.

Exactly.

Exactly!

You know what, let's not

even get this twisted, Derwin.

This between you and I... it's not a fairy tale.

All right, we're just doing what we have to do for the baby.

It's called being responsible.

So, what, if it wasn't for the baby,

we wouldn't be together?

You saying, if it wasn't for the baby, we would?

Huh? Honestly.

Isn't there someplace else you'd rather be?

Hey.

Hey, Janay.

Let me tell you something.

God is gonna bless us for keeping this family together.

You understand? With what?

A tax credit?

A daily reminder that there

is somebody else you'd rather be with?

You know, if I wasn't pregnant,

you would be with Melanie.

It was hard for you seeing her walk out of here.

Well, is it gonna be hard for you

to watch Hill Harper walk out of your life?

It doesn't matter.

All right, I am pregnant with your baby,

this is the real world,

and we're just going to make the best of it.

Make the best...

So, what, now we're settling?

I don't know!

Janay, why are we doing this?

(sighs) I don't know.

(quiet kissing)

What the hell?

Mel!

What are you doing here?

Uh, I came to drop off your key and talk about Derwin.

Uh, could you have at least called first?

I was afraid you wouldn't answer.

But I'm glad I didn't.

Hi. I'm Roman.

Yeah, you are.

So, what,

is he the new cable guy?

Is he here to hook up your box?

Maybe open

your World Wide Web?

These are all va-jay-jay jokes, by the way.

Uh-huh, I got it. Okay, look, we

Really, Kelly?

The gym?

Bartenders and trainers?

Excuse me-- he owns it.

And six others.

Fitness Solutions?

Perhaps you've seen my commercials.

When it comes to your health, there are no problems...

only solutions.

Fitness Solutions.

I wrote it myself.

Ah.

Beefy and talented.

Excuse me.

(chuckling)

What are you doing?

What the hell are you doing?

I just went to Derwin's to put the final nail

in the coffin of our relationship

because you told me to.

And now I find you here with some random guy?

I mean, come on, Kelly.

I thought we were all moving on.

We are.

Roman is not some random guy.

I've been seeing him for a while now.

Really?

Well, how come you didn't say anything?

Nobody knows.

Not Brittany, not you guys.

Plus, I... I just didn't want to jinx it.

You know, like I did with... with that little guy.

(chuckles) Joe?

Yeah, that dude.

I don't know what the hell I was thinking.

And Roman... (sighs)

Isn't he hot?

Why is it that when you do it, it's hot,

but when I do it, it's skanky?

Because you're doing it for the wrong reasons.

And face it.

I mean, the cable guy?

That's not even a union job.

Look, there's a difference between

drowning your sorrows and a new beginning.

Roman's a new beginning.

(chuckles) Oh, Kelly.

I'm happy for you.

Thank you. Now, get the hell out.

(sighs)

You coming to bed?

In a bit.

* Baby

* Whenever, wherever, whatever

* Bye-bye, baby

* Wish I knew if I could

* Be the one that you would

* Love forever and a day, baby

* Oh, yeah

* And if there's a thing that you need *

* For you and your blood

* I will bleed

* And if ever you yearn

* Baby

* Whenever, wherever, whatever

* Bye-bye, baby.
