All language subtitles for The Game s11e07 Media Blitz.eng

- Previously on The Game...
- Ms. Mack.

This is Nelson Evans, my father.

- The hell is this?
- It's a background check.

I'm sold.
I'd love to guide your career.

ALLISON: So, you tell me that
all the promises we made

about the family we wanted
are not worth fighting for.

Give it to me straight, Doc.
Am I going through the change?

It's not menopause.
The cramps are from stress

and constipation.

JAMISON:
Honestly, Brit, when I said

I was done stripping,
I meant it.

GWEN: See here?
This sun keeps appearing

in your art, and when you
find out what it is,

I believe it's gonna open
a pathway to wholeness

that you can't even imagine.

Tasha Mack.

You're my whistleblower?

Oh, I'm gonna love this.

Shannon?

Hey, Malik.
It's been a while.

Look!
Shannon's here.

You know, she the prosecutor
on Beau's case.

I didn't wanna ruin
the surprise,

so... surprise.

I'm, like-- I'm tripping.

Just, it's been like, what,

like 19 years
or something like that?

Yeah, I know.
It's unexpected.

But I was in town,
and I couldn't leave

without apologizing
for how things ended.

No, no, ain't no need
in going back.

We were kids.

I mean, well,
you could have said bye,

but it's cool,
we're grown now, so...

I did say goodbye.

Maybe not in person,
but I left a note

in your yearbook.

- In my yearbook?
- [doorbell ringing]

Malik, that's that, uh,
Make-a-Wish kid.

You better go get that,
come on.

Erika can get that.

Okay, now Shannon,
this note,

what exactly did it say?

I don't know.

- It's been years.
- [doorbell ringing]

Malik, don't make that boy wait.

Okay, look, I will
take care of Shannon.

Okay!
Look, I'm sorry.

I got this kid whose dying wish

is to spend the day
with me, so...

Yeah, I think that's great.

I know you're busy.

Look, I'll come back
another time.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, all right?

Just wait here.
I'll be right back, all right?

Mom, you get Shannon
anything she needs, okay?

- Mm-hmm.
- Anything she needs.

Be right back!

[door closes]

Now, what I need to get you
is a ride to the airport.

I can do that.

Don't waste your breath, Tasha.
I'm not going anywhere.

[Garret whoops]

- [all clapping]
- Hey!

- Oh my goodness!
- [laughing]

- What'd you think, baby?
- Oh, you were amazing!

- Mwah!
- [whoops]

Oh, do I need to get
your autograph now

before your star gets too big?

Boy, you know
you have access, always.

- All access.
- Mm-hmm.

All right, I gotta go.

But remember,
dinner with my father

- before his flight, all right?
- All right, my love.

All right, mm.
Apollo, you're killing it.

I'll bring the wine.

I got big plans for us, man.

[whoops, laughs]

Those first five songs
were beautiful.

Man, hearing you say that,
I just...

Thank you for taking
a chance on me.

Thank your parents for the DNA.

But...

I also need your autograph.

- Okay.
- This lets me use your masters.

Those are the songs
they don't need rerecording.

I'll bring it back tomorrow.

Actually, I need it today.
Cash money don't wait.

Right there, that's...

Okay.

♪ Here comes the one,
here comes the...♪

- Great. Send me a copy, please.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got you.

As his favorite niece,
it gives me great joy

to officially dedicate
the Ulysses S. Thatcher Library

honoring the memory
of the Colonel.

- Renee, over here.
- Ahh!

- Quick question, Renee!
- This donation's coming

at an awfully convenient time,

on the heels
of Beau Thatcher's scandal.

Care to comment?

Cousin Beau had a scandal?
Who knew?

[laughing]

And like with Beau,
the Colonel wanted to ensure

that every child had the chance
to read.

I mean, we all know it,
what was his favorite saying?

It was... [clicks tongue]
"Book it," right?

[laughing]

And thanks to this library,
we can all do just that.

Now, if you'll follow me,

I'll show you
the upgrades we've made

thanks to the Colonel's
generous donation.

BT-Dub, you're good.

So, that's why Auntie Sara
had you babysit me.

I'm just here to make sure
things run smoothly, that's it.

No, that's cool.
It means she trusts you.

Play this right and maybe
she'll pick you

to replace cousin Beau.

Fuck, yes!
Ooh, okay.

What the hell, Shannon?

You said you wouldn't see Malik
and that I could trust you.

You can.
I am not here to cause trouble.

Okay, well, forgive me
for not believing that lie,

especially after the last lie
that you lied about.

That lie was told under duress.
It's legally inadmissible.

Okay, so we're just playing
word games now, huh?

Relax.

I'm a single mother
raising a son, too.

Okay? I don't know what I'd do
if something tore us apart,

so that's one thing
we have in common,

and the only reason
why you can trust me.

Oh, that ain't nothing
but a crock of shit.

[groans]

You okay?

It's just that time
of the month.

But lately, it's been
lasting like a month.

Let me walk you to the chair,
you should sit...

Oh, I don't need you
to walk me nowhere.

You know,
you should see someone.

That's not normal.

Well, thanks,
Doc McStuffin.

Okay? But normal--
you know what,

it just left the second
that you walked through my door.

So, if you'll excuse me,
I got a big meeting

that I won't be able to focus on
because your ass is here.

We also have tablet stations
and hotspots

for easy access to the Internet.

If you really want a hot spot,
you'd put a bar in here.

These rooms,
we rent to the public

for AA meetings, book signings,

college prep courses, et cetera.

What's happening in that room?

That is a support group
for parents

who have put
a child up for adoption.

One more pic, then we're free
from this house of boredom.

- Hey, Jamison!
- Hey, Georgia.

Is Montana around?

No, she's visiting Mom in KC.

So, how's it feel
being the newest running back

for your Vegas Fury?

Oh, uh, yeah, not anymore.

At least not till
the strike ends.

Got locked out.

Explains why
your payment's late.

Montana mentioned it.

Um, yeah, I was actually hoping
to get a couple shifts

waiting tables
until all this blows over.

Sure, this will always be home.

Thank you, Georgia.

Not everybody's
so understanding.

Fuck 'em.
They don't know you like we do.

Still got that gold thong?

No, I s-I said waiting tables.

Oh, honey, I got waiters.

This is ladies night.
I need someone to jiggle.

Georgia, I'm not here for that.
I'm not stripping.

Okay.
Your call.

But cash doesn't have
a conscience.

[shutter clicking]

Okay, smile nice.
Smile.

Hey, hey!

I can't believe it!
Malik Wright!

[laughing]
You must be Zoya.

Oh, wait!
Oh, sorry, no.

No touching,
not unless you sanitize.

- Okay.
- There you go.

Okay, okay, got you.

Hi, I'm Craig,
Zoya's escort.

As you know,
Zoya's fighting leukemia.

Wait.
Wait, I'm dying?

- Yo, he don't know?
- He's kidding.

It's his thing.
You'll get used to it.

Better be fast.
I can go any time.

[laughing]

Just don't mind me.

I'm here to ensure he's safe
and take lots of photos.

Okay.
Come on, buddy.

Hey!

- [shutter clicking]
- All right.

There we go, yeah.

Hey, Zoya,
I'm Malik's friend, Shannon.

- Oh, oh.
- Oh!

Same for you.
There we go.

I'm sanitized.

Zoya, I love that name.
That means "dawn," right?

Yeah.
Not many people know that.

Ah.
Ms. Shannon and I

used to see dawn a whole lot,
if you know what I mean.

Um, no, he doesn't.
He's 11.

You're not gonna leave
these two alone, are you?

Alone?

Whoa, whoa, whoa,
where you going?

Well, I think
I've worried Tasha enough.

We'll catch up another time.

No, no, I don't want
another 19 years to pass

before I see you again.

Pssh, if you even
live that long.

What?
Football players die young.

Okay, not the point,
but I see where you going.

Hey, what are you thinking?

You think Ms. Shannon
should hang out with us today?

Freak, yeah.
She fine enough

to keep my cancer in check
a few hours.

Zoya.

Yeah, that's what
I'm talking about, buddy.

Ah!
You heard that, didn't you?

You can't say no
to a kid with cancer.

It's in the Bible.

- You are shameless, Malik.
- You damn right.

Okay, for Zoya, I'll push
my flight back and hang.

I mean,
if that's okay with you.

- Sure.
- Yes, come on!

Ha-ha, whoo!

[laughing]
Uh-oh.

Hey, J, it's me.

I'm calling because
I saw something weird,

and I don't wanna jump
to conclusions.

So, yeah.
We should talk.

- Okay? Okay, bye.
- Okay.

Drinky time.
Let's get some shots.

[chuckles]
Renee, it's 11:00 a.m.--

- it's worky time.
- Hey, whatevs.

This is Vegas,
city that never sleeps.

That's New York, babe.
Yeah.

But I have a meeting,
so, sorry.

Guess when you're middle-aged,
you forget what fun is.

Girl, we are
the exact same age.

In number, not attitude.

Come on.
I'm here one night.

You want a good report,
I want a good time.

Come on, come on,
come on, come on.

Okay, okay, all right.
All right, tonight.

I'll get my work done,
all right,

and then we will
make The Hangover

look like a church picnic.

- Okay.
- Okay?

Okay!

Ah, Ms. Mack.

What's so vital we need to meet
before the investors arrive?

Let me be clear.
I don't like you,

don't trust you,
and I'm not leaving

until Malik gets everything
he deserves.

So, this is how the CEO

of Malik Wright Enterprises
negotiates.

No, this is.

This entire league
is Malik's idea,

so you need
to let your investors know

- that we want a piece.
- What kind of piece?

Well, there are several
MWE businesses

that will work beautifully
as franchises in the new league.

Such as?

Malik's Memorabilia.
Phatty's Burgers.

- Phatty's?
- Mm-hmm.

Only in America.

- [chuckles]
- Anything else?

Malik gets to own a team.

Mm, active players
can't be owners.

To the franchise of his choice,
with a minimum 25% share.

And, knowing from experience

that white billionaires
can't be trusted,

I want it in writing.

[laughing]
All right, all right.

In writing.

You know, I'm almost embarrassed

at being out-negotiated by you.

Like how you embarrassed me

at the draft
with that diploma crap?

I was merely protecting my son,
just as you are now.

No, the truth is
I couldn't respect you more,

not only as a businesswoman,

but as both mother
and father to Malik.

Well, thank you, Nelson.

Not a lot of people
acknowledge that.

Hear, hear.

Ah, investors have arrived.
Shall we?

Uh...
I'll be right there.

I just need to make
a phone call.

Of course.

Excuse me.

SHANNON: And extra everything
with the cherry on top,

and it is done.

Ooh, this is gonna be good.
Come here.

While Malik gets the pool ready,

we'll have a sundae
extravaganza!

Oh, ho, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no.

No, Zoya is not allowed
to have any dairy

or gluten or processed sugar

or wheat or nuts or chocolate.

Why?
Is he allergic?

Just precautionary.

This is fine.

Just kill me now.

Any other restrictions?

I emailed Malik.
I guess he didn't get it.

Zoya can have...

BOTH: ...soft bland foods,
gelatins and puddings are best.

"Make sure he chews thoroughly
and eats slowly.

And he must drink
lots of fluids, but not sodas."

Craig's a bit
of a buzzkill, isn't he?

Yep.
I'd trade two days of life

for a scoop of ice cream.

- Look.
- No.

- You did this?
- Yeah.

You're so talented!
Look at the detail!

Okay, okay, I'll take you.

The restroom's
right upstairs, come on.

- We'll be right back.
- Oh, don't be too long.

Do you got any whipped cream?

- Uh, in the fridge.
- Great.

Well, hello, Ms. Superstar.

I was beginning to wonder
where you were.

Sorry, babe.
I'm running a little late,

'cause, well, when I went
to the wine store,

I realized I left
my wallet at the studio.

Well, just forget the wine
and come over.

I got the wine.

I'm just gonna grab
my wallet, okay.

- Okay, I'll see you soon.
- Bye.

[heavy metal music playing]

Excuse me,
have you seen Apollo?

- [music volume decreases]
- Hey, I'm so sorry.

Have you seen Apollo?

Uh, no idea who that is,
who you are,

or how you crashed our session.

I had a morning session here.
I think I left my wallet.

This is a private studio,
we don't do morning sessions,

and I didn't see a wallet
when I opened up.

- Okay, well, can I just look?
- No.

We got enough groupies.
Big J.

I'm not a groupie,
I'm an artist.

Uh-huh, yeah.
See ya.

[music volume increases]

Please.

Have a seat,
I'll be right with you.

- All right, thank you.
- Thank you.

Tasha.

The investors are buzzing.

So, once the union
has ratified our deal,

we'll elect a commissioner,
hold a draft,

and kick off
before the year's end.

A draft?
That's stupid.

How else would we
assemble teams?

You don't.

The players, they just bonded
in training camp.

Last thing you wanna do
is to break that up.

You really know
how players think.

I know how everyone
in this game thinks,

including all of you.

Let's see if that's true.

Shall we sit...

- [gasps]
- Oh, dear.

- I am so sorry!
- Oh, dear. Here.

Thank you.
It's okay, it's okay.

- Here we are.
- You know, when I said

my lips were parched,
I wasn't specific.

[laughter]

My apologies, Nelson, I'm...
[sighs]

- I gotta take care of this.
- No, no, by all means.

- Okay.
- We'll connect another time.

Absolutely.
All right.

[sighs]

- Oh, uh, thank you so much.
- Mm-hmm.

[sighs]

[groaning]

Oh, what's wrong with me, Lord?

Oh, God.

- GEORGIA: Ready?
- Uh...

[pills clattering]

Stage fright?

No, I'm just not looking
forward to this.

Oh, it's just like
riding a horse bareback.

Once you're up there,

you like it way more
than you thought.

God bless America.

Try not to salute.

- [knocking]
- Come in.

[clears throat]

- Allison.
- Hey, Brittany.

I think we should talk.

So, it's true.

You gave your child
for adoption.

- Jamison's child?
- Please don't tell him.

It's not my place
to say anything.

But he does deserve to know.

After Jamison went to jail,

my dad sent me
to boarding school in Europe.

His name is Cyrus.

He's happy.
They're all happy.

I can see that.

But they're not living a lie,
Allison.

Jamison is.

Look, you're right,
Jamison should know,

- and so should Cyrus.
- Mm-hmm.

- But not today.
- Allison, is this about Jamison

or is it about how Jamison
will feel about you

once he knows
that you kept his son from him?

Look, you have no idea
how it feels

having someone else
raise your child.

It is a daily burden
that I bear,

but as hard as it is for me,
it'll crush Jamison.

It might.
But as hard as this is,

this is not our call, Allison,
it's Jamison's.

So, either you tell him
or I will.

Brittany, please.
You won.

Jamison loves you.

If he chose me, I would have
told him in a heartbeat.

But he didn't,
and now he's got a shot

at a real future with you.

Don't ruin that.

[door closes]

Come on. We're making a break
for it, come on.

We're losing Craig faster than
I'm losing white blood cells.

Whoa, dude,
that's not funny, okay?

And we ain't going anywhere,
and I will deal

with Craig, young man.
[chuckles]

Dude, Zoya has
less than three months to live.

They won't let him do anything.

Look, this is all the stuff
he wants to do but can't.

Hm.

For me, if the choice was living
without the things I love

or dying with them,
come on, that choice

is no choice at all.

Dude!
You drew these?

With my dying breath.

Dude, come on, man,
your dying art

is better than my living art.

And you said I wasn't funny.

Clock's ticking, Malik.

Come on, grown-up or rebel?

[chuckles]

Aw, fuck it.
Come on.

[laughing]
All right, buddy, le'go!

Zoya, all right,
pick a car, any car.

- No way!
- Yes way, buddy.

♪ I just wanna move♪

- That one, right there!
- Whoa-oh!

- You okay, buddy?

- Brain freeze.
- Oh, man.

[laughter]

Okay, buddy.
What's your favorite number?

- Duh.
- That's what I'm talking about.

Okay, everything on three.

All of it, let's go!
Come on!

[all cheering]

I don't get Vegas.

Rabid tourists spending money
on a vacation

only to lose more money
they don't have.

Well, it's not
your cup of tea, Dad.

But I hope Raquel is.

She's unlike any woman I've met.

Funny, creative,
and fiercely independent.

And late.

I'm gonna ask her
to meet Mother.

Hey.
I'm so sorry I'm late.

Mm!
[laughing]

Hi, Mr. Evans.
I can't stay a while,

but I just want to say hi.

That's a marvelous year,
Raquel, thank you.

- Thank you.
- Excuse us, Dad.

Mm.

What do you mean
you can't stay?

We planned this for weeks.
What's going on?

Oh, I know, it's just
when I got back to the studio,

everything changed.

New people, new furniture,

and nobody knew Apollo,

and now his voice mail's down
and he's MIA.

Okay, I'm sure there's
an explanation for that.

Yeah, well, I hope so,
because I gave him access

to my masters
and my life's work,

and I just have to get back
to just figure out

- what's going on.
- Can't you do that later?

Dad's leaving tonight.
This is important.

And so is this, Garret.

Duty before dinner,
I always say.

Do what you need to do,
Raquel, I'll be back.

Mr. Evans.

- Was really nice meeting you.
- It's a pleasure meeting you.

Bye.

I'll call you later.

Well, you were right.

She's unlike any other woman
you've ever brought home before.

SHANNON: ...car, where you
ride shotty all day.

- Aah!
- [laughing]

Where the H-E-double
hockey sticks were you?

Oh, Craig, calm down, man.

We just took Zoya out
for a little fun.

- He's okay.
- ZOYA: Better than okay.

I had the time of my life,
and that's saying a lot.

[laughter]

And, uh, sorry about the wall.

I just wanted you
to remember me.

Man, don't worry
about that wall.

That paint
is Benjamin Moore's finest.

That drawing will wipe
right off.

But I'm-a leave it up
so I'll never forget you.

As a matter of fact,
let me see this.

This is an IOU...

to see me play
in my championship game.

You and a guest,
all expenses paid, buddy.

Wow.
Thanks, Malik.

Mm-hmm.
[chuckles]

But by the time the game
gets here,

I won't be, you know...

Zoya, listen, buddy.

After hanging with you today,
I have no doubt

that you are gonna
beat the odds.

We will be at that
game together, you and me.

That's right.
All three of us.

[chuckles]

- Aw!
- Oh, man!

[laughter]

Colleen, if you don't get
your crooked boss

to call me in an hour,
I'm going to the cops.

- [knocking]
- God.

Hold on.

Apollo, where have you been?

It's nice to see you too.

And if you must know,
I've been doing my job.

Oh my God, are you serious?

Yep, you are the opening act for
Silk Sonic's East Coast swing.

Six states, 22 shows.

You got three weeks
to get ready.

- Is this real?
- Yes, it's real.

- And you and me, we're good?
- I mean, I'm fantastic.

But frankly, I thought that
you'd be a little happier...

No, I've never been happier.

- Thank you!
- [laughing]

As you see, you have several
benign tumors called fibroids.

Yes, I am aware
of the Black woman's disease.

I got two.
I've had 'em for years.

Well, now you have four.

Two, the size of grapes,
here, an apple,

and the largest
is like a grapefruit.

How the hell did my body
become the Fruit of the Womb?

- [chuckles]
- Stress.

It can cause fibroids
that were asymptomatic

to grow at an alarming pace.

- You need to slow down.
- Uh, not an option, Doc.

You feel that?
That's the largest one,

and it's causing most
of your weight gain.

At this rate, you'll look
nine months pregnant

- by Christmas.
- Oh, another virgin birth.

[laughing]
Okay, look.

I need to know what to do,
because I had an accident today

that left that barstool
looking like a crime scene.

A myomectomy might help,

but the fibroids
will eventually grow back.

At this rate, a hysterectomy
should be in your near future.

Surgery?

You wanna take out
my lady parts?

Nah.
I'll pass.

Ms. Mack, as Black women,

I know we like
to suffer in silence.

But if you do nothing,

this will severely impact
your quality of life.

Okay, look, Dr. Miller,
I hear you, all right?

But I need another option.
I'm not having surgery.

Please consider it.

Oh, and I found this.

You know us crooks, man,
we like surprises.

Man.
You got my message.

Yes, all of 'em.
You scared Colleen, man.

I freaked at the studio
when I thought you were gone.

I thought you stole my masters.

No, I couldn't close the deal
without showing

that I control the rights.

- Yeah.
- Man, I like your fire.

Keep it, but you've
gotta trust me, man, I just...

Yeah, I know.

I know.
I know, I've...

I've been having trouble
with this trust thing,

and it's not just with you.

Oh, and, um...

this is for you guys.

Whoa-ho-ho-ho!

Oh, we got the banana split!

- Wow, man.
- Thank you.

- Thank you, man.
- Hey,

- Time to go. Time to go.
- Okay.

Oh, I'm driving!

Yep!
Just do better

- than you did earlier.
- Later, Zoya.

[laughing]
Craig, please give our best

to his parents,
they have an amazing son.

- They really do.
- You don't know.

Zoya never met his parents.

Now, in spite
of your reckless methods...

...I'm glad he was able to have
a mom and dad for the day.

[Shannon exhales sharply]

That's sad.

You know, why didn't you ever
settle down and have a family?

[short chuckle]

- Truth?
- Yeah.

Only person I ever saw myself
having a family with was you.

Oh, come on.

3,000 women on that list,
and I'm the only one?

I saw it online.
RJ James is funny.

Shannon, your name
was never on the list.

And had you never left
without saying goodbye,

would never even be a list.

I didn't say goodbye.

I told you,
I wrote it in your yearbook

- so you'd have it forever.
- Okay, you know what?

You didn't say goodbye,
and you didn't write it.

And I can prove it.
Come on.

Mm-hmm.

Thank you.

To Aunt Sara for my babysitter!

To Aunt Sara!

- [whoops]
- [phone chimes]

Maybe I'll spend
more time in Vegas

when Auntie is sole owner.

Um, sole owner?
What do you mean?

Well, when Uncle U died,
she nixed the Rick Fox deal

and started buying out
the partners.

Soon, she'll be outright owner
of the Fury!

- Oh!
- [whoops]

But why would she do that?

I don't know.

And if the answer isn't in
this glass, I don't care.

DJ:
Ladies, back by popular demand,

the one, the only
JJ Jiggles!

Aah! Do you have any cash?
I'll get you back, promise.

Please, please.
Quickly, quickly, please.

Thank you!

Ow! JJ!
Over here! [whoops]

[girls shouting and cheering]

You're so hot!

[whooping] Throw me your pants!

Throw me your pants!

Oh my God!

Look, look, I got it!
I got it! They're mine!

[shouting, cheering]

- [phone chimes]
- NELSON: Ah, my driver's here.

Please give my love to Mom.

Of course.

I'll be back next week
on league business.

With any luck, we'll finally
be working together.

Dad, don't hold first
impressions against Raquel.

She's special and passionate--

in some ways, a lot like Mother.

Well, not exactly.

- What's that?
- Research on your paramour.

There are things about her past
you should know.

For God's sakes,
what are you doing?

You know our rule.

- Information over emotion.
- No, your rule.

Yes, and it served me very well.

At least this way,
you'll make an informed choice.

I don't need
your background check.

Raquel's special.

She's my girl
and nothing's gonna change that.

Well, if that's true,

you'll have no problem
reading that.

- ♪
- [shouting, cheering]

[muffled shouting]

[exhales sharply]

[sighs]

[clears throat]
Hey, Brittany.

Uh, I got your voice mail,
you wanted to talk.

How long have you been
an addict, Jamison?

[scoffs]

Babe, this is, um-- it's not
what it looks like, okay?

- It's just...
- If you lie to me again,

we're done.

You know, you're wrong.

Zoya's art isn't
way better than yours.

It's tons better.

[laughing]
Oh, okay.

I see you got jokes.

You know,
watching you with him,

your son, he's really
lucky to have you.

How did you know I had a son?

I saw him.

Some years ago,
I was in St. Louis

for the draft,
and I stopped by your house.

- So, that was you.
- [chuckles]

I always wondered
why you didn't say hi.

I don't know.
Y'all looked so happy, Shannon,

I just... you know,
you, your husband, your son.

How long you been married?

Ten years.

Widowed two.

Oh.

I'm sorry, Shannon.

No, it's... it's okay, Malik,
I'm good.

Okay.

Hey, you know
Tee Tee is getting married?

Tequila Tee Tee?

Tequila Tee Tee
is tying the knot

right here in Vegas.
[laughing]

- You should come.
- Oh, snap!

Malik and Tee Tee,
together again?

- Mm-hmm.
- Um, that sounds like trouble.

- I'll think about it.
- Mm-hmm, you should.

Yes, you should.

- Ah, okay!
- There it is.

- Yearbook, uh-huh.
- Yeah, go on and blow off

- that dust, old man.
- Uh-huh.

Yeah.
Here we go.

This is the only thing
that makes me feel like me.

- This?
- Yes, this.

And the stripping, that's what,
to get money for the pills?

It's for the pills,
it's for rent,

it's for everything.

I am broke, Brittany, I...

My car go repo'ed,
I have nothing.

I was ashamed to tell you
'cause I didn't want you

judging me like everybody else.

I am not everybody else,
Jamison.

I'm here.
I am right here.

And if you want this to work,
you're gonna choose right now.

It's either me
or it's these pills.

Is this all of 'em?

- Yeah.
- Do you swear?

I give you my word.

Okay.

Let's go.

You're gonna stay with me
till you get back on your feet.

I'll meet you out there.

MALIK: Okay.

Ah! Oh.

Okay.

- You did say goodbye.
- Mm.

I told you.

- What does it say?
- Let's see.

"Malik, you light up my world

"and I've cherished
our time together,

"but we're going
in different directions.

"And I would never
hold you back.

"I pray you understand.

"I love you and I always will.

[sighs]
"Goodbye, Malik.

XOXO,
Shannon Elia Dixon."

It's a cute little touch
with the little flower

above your "I"s.

That's not a flower.

No, Elia means "sun,"

so I'd dot my I
with a little sun.

Like my tattoo.
