I don't love Reggie.

Okay, I like Reggie.

A whole lot, there.

When I love Reggie, trust me, you will know.

I know.

Shoot, I know we'll all know when you love Reggie.

I don't have time for this right now.

♪ Love Reggie

Oh.

Don't tell Troy, okay?

I will talk to Reggie about the trip, so please don't.

Oh my gosh, y'all act like I tell Troy everything, geeze.

Because ya do.

That's what you do.

Just information 411. Whatever.

All up in the business.

I'll see you later.

Reggie lover.

Stop.

Oh hey babe, I thought you were Paula.

Did you just see her, she was just leaving.

Oh yeah, how you doing sweetheart?

Good, just looking through our trip photos.

Oh, oui, oui.

How amazing was it?

Oh man, I loved it.

So beautiful.

Troy, will you take off this ridiculous, ridiculous hat?

We are not in Paris anymore.

Baby, don't hate on my hat.

You know that looks fly on me.

Does it?

Yeah, it does.

It looks fly on you?

Yes it does.

It looks fly on you?

Yeah, and what's up with your sister?

She walking up out of here, she wasn't

her usual, chipper, self.

Oh...

Nothing, nothing at all.

Nothing, I don't know.

Paula stuff.

What, what, what's going on?

Oh.

Oh, okay, I get it.

She told you not to tell me, right?

Man, we don't gotta listen to them.

Reggie tells me that all the time.

Look, I wanna hear it.

I'm your husband, we don't have no secrets.

Alright.

So Paula is telling me that in Paris,

Reggie was acting really, like...

Weird?

Hey Lucky.

Hi.

I'm glad you called.

Been trying to get a hold of you for the

last week, but I understand why

you haven't picked up any of my calls.

Yeah, I think I was just

a little nervous about what you were gonna say.

Well, I was gonna say that I'm sorry

for the way you felt when you left my

place the last time I saw you.

I know it was a little uncomfortable.

A little.

No, it was my own fault though.

You know if I had just taken a second

to look around, I would've seen that you were

trying to get out of there for your trip.

I wanna see you.

You do?

Yes, I do.

Is it to tell me that I'm too late?

Well I guess you're gonna have

to agree to see me to find out.

Well I am just around the corner

from the gym now.

Okay, there's no time like the present.

So I guess I'll see you shortly.

I guess so.

Okay, see you soon, bye.

Bye.

Hey.

Hi.

Buena Suertes here to see you.

Who?

Lucky, you know, same thing.

Oh, well send her back, please.

Okay.

And use English.

You can go in back.

Thank you.

Hey Lucy.

Just so you know, his office hours

are between two and four.

Lucky.

And...

I know, it's fine this time, just

so you have a heads up for next time.

Okay.

Hi.

Hey.

What's up with the girl up front?

Roquelle, she got a promotion today.

Power kind of went to her head.

All of that, she's harmless.

Mostly.

Mostly?

Yeah, mostly.

Have a seat, please.

I'm really glad you were able to come by.

Yeah.

Are you on your way to work out or something?

Sort of.

I joined the gym around the corner.

Tip Top Fitness?

How you go...

Really?

Really?

I know, no, I know, but what was I supposed to do?

I couldn't work out here since,

you know, we broke up.

Okay.

Yeah.

Okay.

Yeah, we gonna take care of this right now.

Take care of what?

This, hold on one second, watch me work.

Can I speak to Lou, please?

Hey, Lou, it's Reggie, at Fit and Fab.

I need to cancel a membership for Lucky James.

Reggie, don't do that, no.

I'm gonna owe them a lot of money if I can...

Yes sir.

Mail me the bill please.

Yep, you have a great afternoon as well, thank you.

I can't believe you just did that,

you are so silly.

Man, that's how they stunt, that just happened.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That just happened.

I can't have my woman going to the competitors

gym, what kind of...

Your woman?

You know what I mean.

No, I have no idea what you mean.

Lucky I would like for us to try this again.

I mean we got along so great, the only

issue was, you know, that you didn't want to have

kids, and now that we've taken care of that,

you know, why not?

You know?

Yeah.

I guess I just thought you'd moved on.

I went on a trip, I haven't moved on.

Well okay then.

It is settled, we will give it our best shot.

Yes, we will.

Yes, I think we can do this.

Yes, we can.

Yes, we can.

I missed you.

I missed you.

Good.

Get over here.

Yeah, for real though, look,

ever since Bruce put me in charge,

I've been knocking it out the box.

It's about time they gave this place a new look.

Man, I told them straight up, I said,

look man, you want this place to stay open,

you need to make some changes around here.

And bam, he put me in charge of promotions and everything.

Wow.

Cleaning up too?

Well hey man, I figured the more

money in his pocket, the more money in my pocket.

You feel me?

Makes sense to me.

Speaking of which, he owe me a check.

Hold up, what's today?

Yeah, yeah, he owe me a...

I'll be right back.

He know two things I don't play with

is my money, and my women.

Excuse me.

Sound like women had an H in it.

W-h-o-m-e-n. Right.

Come on man, lets sit down.

I'm tired.

So.

What's up with you and Paula?

Nothing man, nothing.

I do gotta talk to her though.

She ain't gonna be happy.

Why not, what's up?

Before we went to Paris, Lucky stopped by my place.

She said she changed her mind.

And she would consider having kids for me.

Woah, that's pretty deep.

I mean, you think she was serious,

or just saying that just to be saying it?

I mean, why would she just say that?

You know, especially when she was so

adamant about not having kids.

I don't know man, women come up with

all kinds of crazy things when

they feel like a good thing is slipping away.

Yeah, nah man, no.

Trust me, Lucky wouldn't do that man.

She know how bad I wanna have kids.

Alright, well, I'm happy for you.

And if you happy and it seems like you are,

then that's all that matters.

Yeah, yeah.

But, Paula.

Oh, Paula's gonna slash your tires.

That's smart, that's...

That's...

Why you looking like that?

Nah man, I've heard some pretty

crazy stories about Piper and Paula back in the day.

Hey yo.

- Tuck that in. - Get that.

Under there, under that side.

Yeah, okay cool.

Look, I gotta make a run right,

I gotta be gone for 30 minutes.

I gotta go catch Bruce, he over

on the other side of town, trying to play

with my money, but I'll be back, aight?

30 minutes, tops.

Hey bruh, we gonna have this knocked out

before you get back, this gonna be done.

- Alright, that's what's up. - You know what I'm saying?

For real.

We some hard workers.

Okay, hey man, so listen, back to Paula.

Exactly what kind of crazy stuff did you hear?

Oh, well all I know is, is that it

involved Paula's ex-boyfriend's car,

some firewood, some matches, and some

gasoline, and they weren't going camping.

Oh it's all bad, all bad.

You know what, nah man.

I mean, either way, I just gotta

tell her that me and Lucky are back on.

I mean I'm not...

I gotta be straight with her.

Yeah, you probably wanna hurry up and do that,

because she's probably under the impression after

your trip to Paris with her, that you two are an item.

You probably right.

Well no, in my defense, that was just a friendly trip.

You know, just a peaceful gesture.

Oh yeah, yeah, I'm pretty sure

she took it that way.

I mean you only took her to the

romance capitol of the world.

Let me just get it out the way man.

Get it out the way.

I'ma call her now.

See, oh is he coming back?

Okay.

You're good.

Hey Paula.

You got a little time this afternoon?

I need to talk to you about some things.

No, no, that's perfect.

I gotta pass there to get home anyway.

Yep.

Okay, I'll see you then.

Bye.

So?

What she say?

Nothing, you know.

She actually sounded like she always sound.

I think I'm over analyzing it, you know, she'll be fine.

You're probably right.

But just make sure that you stand your ground,

and make sure she does not make

you feel guilty about getting back with Lucky.

Exactly, that's my plan.

At the end of the day, she's just gonna have

to accept it and deal with it.

Take it or leave it.

And he actually said that?

"Take it or leave it."

I mean he might as well have, I mean

you should've seen him.

He was all, I don't know...

What's the word?

Confident?

Confident, yes.

He was confident.

And all stern, and it was kind of manly, actually.

But, sorry.

Honestly though, he didn't sound like himself.

Well who did he sound like?

Him.

Hey, baby.

Hey, what's up, got the pizza.

Yes.

You alright, what y'all doing?

Yes.

So.

Do you know anything about Reggie and Lucky

getting back together?

Reggie and Lucky?

Nah.

That's news to me, but thanks for the update.

So you didn't give him a pep talk

about breaking up with me?

What?

No.

In all fairness, Paula, you guys

were never really even a couple, so the break up...

Oh, Piper you need to pick a side, okay.

Come on, that's not fair, I never

got a shot at becoming a couple.

Thanks to Lucky.

I think I'm gonna go in my room, but

you ladies feel free to help yourself to some pizza.

Oh, oh, and Paula they ran out

of black olives, so I just had to

get pepperoni and cheese, you know.

Alright.

Take it or leave it.

Oh, see, oh see, that right there,

that is exactly, exactly how Reggie talked to me.

I knew they had a conversation.

It was like he just gave it to me straight.

Like I was just supposed to accept

what he was saying.

Well you do have to accept it, Paula.

Okay, to be honest with you he could

have dated both of you, and just played you.

But he was honest with you.

So what you're saying is I'm just supposed

to like deal with this?

Pretty much.

But what about all the changes that I made?

I mean did you make those changes

for yourself, or did you make those changes for Reggie?

Honestly?

Yes, honestly.

A little bit of both.

Aw, Paula.

Look, this transformation of yours is gonna

take a little bit of time, okay?

It's not gonna happen overnight, but you

are on the right track, and I'm very proud of you.

Yeah, well.

Everybody wants to be loved.

Well you're just gonna have to wait

your turn like everybody else.

That's exactly what Reggie said.

So.

Reggie, and Lucky.

That's it, you just have to move on.

You're right.

Yep.

I'm moving on.

You know what, instead of trying to

work out to fit into a wedding dress,

I just need to focus on working on my body, mind, and soul.

That's right, you need to focus on yourself.

That's right, I'm not gonna let this hold me down.

No way!

I mean who needs a man?

Okay you're not with me on that one.

What I mean is, it's time for Paula Case to grow up.

Yeah.

It's time for me to take responsibility for

myself, and my actions.

Wow.

I can't believe, like me, growing up.

Being responsible.

Thanks for letting me stay here,

while I figure this out.

Ah, it's no problem, you're my sister.

I don't even have to beg Troy.

Oh gosh, that means I have to thank him too.

Okay, what if you looked at it this way?

I know it may be hard to accept that they're

together because of you, but look at how

good you are at what you do.

You know you're a really good judge of character.

That doesn't help at all, Piper, actually.

That makes it worse.

It all depends on how you look at it.

Yeah.

But can I please say one more thing about Ms. Lucky?

Come on!

Just one thing.

Please, please, hear me out, okay?

I'm listening.

Okay, so, what if she doesn't have good

intentions for Reggie, huh?

What if she only agreed to change her

mind about the baby, after she saw

the story in the news about all his money?

Oh, oh, oh yeah.

You know I didn't even think about that.

See, see?

Something about that girl, I don't know.

Something about her.

And I'm not being a hater.

It's not that.

But if you thought she had bad

intentions, then why would you set her up with Reggie?

Duh, Piper, I didn't intend for him

to like her as much as he does.

You know I had intended it to be

a warm up, starter date.

I mean, that's what you do as a matchmaker.

Sometimes you send your clients out

on a date to work through the kinks, you know?

I mean Lucky was supposed to have been a kink.

You were way off with that one.

Obviously.

Either way you put it, they're together now,

so you have to accept it and just leave it alone.

But I want him.

Girl you look like a three year old

kid, begging for a puppy.

Baby, I'm lonely, can you come

back here please?

Ew.

That would be my prince charming.

Oh, okay.

Thanks for listening.

No problem.

And there's nothing wrong with fighting

for love, Paula, just fight fair, sis.

Hey they say all is fair in love and war.

Fight fair.

I'll try.

Hi, can I speak to Officer Houston, please?

Okay, well can you tell him that Paula Case called,

and it's urgent?

Yes, he has my number.

Okay, thank you.

May the best woman win, Lucky.

Hey what's up Paula?

Hey, Troy.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Yeah.

I gotta be honest about something, okay?

I knew about Lucky and Reggie getting back together.

Piper made you come out and tell me all this, huh?

Nah, nah, she didn't.

I'm actually doing this by choice.

Oh.

Well thanks, but...

Doesn't matter anyway.

I'm just happy for Reggie,

you know, that's all that matters.

You're happy for him?

I'm ecstatic, want the best for him.

Wow, you really have changed.

By the way.

Thank you so much for letting me stay here

while I work this out.

I know that's really big of you.

You know what Paula, you're like a sister to me.

And I know we've had our ups and downs,

but when it's all said and done, it's all love.

Thank you, brother.

Okay?

Yes.

Alright, you have a good night.

You too.

411.

I need a Lucky.

You know what she never even

gave me her last name, scandalous.

There we go, there we go, two more, lets get it.

Come on, one more, uh-huh, that's it.

One more.

Yeah, for the Gucci store, one more.

For the Louis store.

That doesn't work anymore, I have

repented thank you.

One more, just 'cause I wanna see you do it.

Nah, you just wanna see me sweat.

One more.

How's your stand-up comedy going?

Oh it's going good, real good, real good.

You know we open in a few weeks right?

Yeah, I got my special guest lined up and everything.

Oh really?

Yeah, already sold out.

Sold out, that's great.

Yeah.

Who is your special guest?

I ain't tell you?

Hey, Stanley.

Telephone.

Okay, I'll be right back.

Okay.

Remember the two and a half minute rule, okay?

Give me the phone.

Hello?

Yeah.

Oh hey.

Okay.

Yeah, thank you, thank you.

That's what's up.

Yo, that was Lucky.

She said she's bringing lunch by for the office.

Oh, that's nice and all, but Reggie's

not even here yet.

I know, but he'll be here soon.

Oh great.

I should probably go before she gets here.

Hold on, Paula, what's up?

Nothing.

Sit down, sit down.

So what's going on?

I mean I thought you and Reggie

was going to give this thing a go.

Yeah, me too, but Lucky got more votes, so.

Okay, well you get my vote.

I don't trust that woman.

Really?

I mean, on everything I love,

she come off all sweet, and all,

you know, all...

I've been around her a few times,

you know, I don't trust her.

I thought it was just me.

No, something ain't right.

I mean, she remind me of somebody

but I can't place it.

It's like, I'm like, did I see her

on an episode of...

You know what I mean?

Like, for real, for real.

But I can't say nothing to your boy Reggie,

'cause he's, you know, he's feeling her like that.

That he is.

Nose wide open.

You know how the song go, don't you baby girl?

Which song?

♪ When a man loves a woman

♪ Can't keep his mind on nothing else

Nothing else.

♪ He'd trade the whole world

♪ For a good thing that he's found

♪ If she's bad

♪ He can't see it

♪ She can do no wrong

♪ Turn his back on his best friend

♪ If he puts her down

Hey, Michael Bolton.

Do you wanna let these lovely people work out in peace?

What's going on everybody?

Lucky's bringing lunch.

Really, when?

Now.

Hey, what's up?

Look at her, look at her, her old pretty self.

Old smart and everything.

I'm not a fan at all.

Lucky!

Look at you, bringing us lunch and stuff, girl.

Oh, it's no problem.

Yeah.

If you like it.

Hey, Paula.

Hey, Reggie, Lucky, hi.

Hi, Paula.

I'm sorry I only brought food for the staff,

I didn't know you'd be here.

That's okay.

I don't have much of an appetite anyway.

Let me re-introduce you to Roquelle.

She's gonna be your new trainer.

I am?

Yes, you are, congratulations.

Yep, and she's amazing, and her bark

is way worse than her bite.

Roquelle.

Lucky.

Oh, okay, Lucky, no Lucero.

No, Lucky.

Yeah, we got you.

And if you can't understand what

she's saying, just ask me.

Okay.

'Cause I can't understand either.

No me gusta.

Mine's a little salty too.

Aye, don't you know any Spanish by now?

That means that I don't like her.

Oh, my bad.

No me gusta, either.

No?

Por que?

Why don't you like her?

Oh.

I'm just partial to Paula.

You know what I'm saying?

I mean, you know, Lucky she seem to be

too good to be true.

Paula, at least we know she a reformed gold-digger.

I don't know what's up with Lucky.

She's got flaws and stuff, but I

don't know what they are yet.

Okay, well I'm gonna go, so I'm not

late for my meetings, but I will see you tonight.

- Yes ma'am. - For dinner.

Enjoy.

Okay.

Bye.

Bye guys.

Okay, no me gusta.

Hey, how was your workout?

It was perfect, it was great.

Just been doing that circuit you taught me.

You know you don't have to work out alone.

I can still train you.

I don't think that's a good idea.

Okay.

Yep.

I don't mind.

Oh, I do though, so, yeah.

It just can't go back to how...

You know, I just...

It's gonna take awhile to get back.

I know you don't owe me anything, but

it's gonna take awhile for me to get over this, so.

Got you.

I really wish you didn't feel this way.

I mean, is there anything I can do?

No.

I just want you to be happy, Paula.

I wanna be happy too, you know?

I don't know, maybe this is my payback

for playing with love for so long, so take it like a woman.

Can we still...

- Be friends? - Be friends.

I can't be friends with you, Reggie, I'm sorry,

I just, I like you too much.

Enjoy your sandwich.

Thank you.

Hope it doesn't give you gas.

Bye Paula.

See you guys.

Hey...

Hey, hey, hey, hey, where you guys going?

I thought we could make it a movie night.

Here I was going to order some Chinese,

and then go pick it up.

Oh, we were actually gonna go out to dinner tonight.

Oh, really, where?

It's on the other side of town.

It's far, far away.

You don't even like to drive, you know,

so you wouldn't wanna go, trust me.

Reggie invited us over to dinner to meet Lucky.

Why didn't you just say that?

Guys I don't want you to walk around

on eggshells in your own house, around me.

We don't feel that way.

I know I don't, do you Troy?

Oh no, not at all.

You know what, I don't even like eggs.

Or the shells, so, no...

Have fun.

Be safe, enjoy dinner, I'm not mad.

Okay, good, we didn't think you were.

Yeah.

See you later?

Bye.

- Bye. - Alright.

Come on honey, enjoy your Chinese.

Thanks.

Alright.

Hello?

Yes, this is Paula.

Hi, Officer Houston.

I'm so glad you called.

I really need your help.

Set.

Oh, oh.

Listen...

Hi, Reggie.

Starting to wonder if

y'all was even gonna make it.

Man, Piper drove, it's not even my fault.

Oh so you're saying I drive slow?

No, I'm saying you drive extremely slow.

You know what, Troy, if you have

a problem with the way I drive,

why don't you do all the driving for now?

That would be nice, that would be nice.

Shoot.

What is y'all problem today?

You know what, I just can't

say or do anything right today, okay.

It's like my very existence annoys her.

That is not true, Troy, okay,

I told you, I'm stressed.

A little help would be nice, I feel

like I do everything by myself.

Well I told you that we could get counseling babe,

you don't have to be ashamed of that.

No, Troy.

I'm not talking about that.

You need to get a job.

Oh, you just gonna say that in front of my boy?

Oh...

She's...

You know what?

I need y'all to pause on the fight for a second.

Slide on over there next to your wife.

I really...

No. Come on, Troy.

Troy, please, now.

Come on.

Come on, man.

She's emasculating me, and I'm here.

Get all sat down.

I gotta sit here, and act like we...

Slide over, right here.

Alright!

Smile.

There we go.

Good job, hey.

Do not mess this up for me, okay?

Alright.

- Hey baby. - Hi.

I am so sorry I'm late.

I am never late, but I left my phone at home,

and then I had to go all the way back,

and then I realized that my phone

was dead, so I couldn't call you to

tell you that I was gonna be really, really late.

I'm sorry.

Relax, and come on in.

Let me have your jacket.

Oh, yes.

Hi.

Oh, hi.

- You know Troy. - Yes.

This is his wife, Piper.

- Hi, it's so nice... - It's nice to meet you.

Hi.

Again.

Oh, you guys are so cute, you're so in love.

That's nice, and I didn't kiss my baby.

Thank you.

I hope we're that in love, years and years from now.

Me...

Me too.

Me too, they are the...

My love relationship role model here.

Look, dinner's ready.

Go ahead and wash up, right there.

Piper there's a bathroom in the back of the hall, and...

Use extra soap.

Do not.

You see she just put me on front street about the job?

But you need to get a job.

I've been trying to get a job.

Ms. Piper, go ahead and smile your

way on over to the table, and relax.

Thank you Reggie, you're so sweet.

Yeah, and then come on over here baby,

and grab a seat.

Thank you.

Oh no baby, you can do it on your own.

We at home.

This the second home.

There we go, there it is.

It is so nice to finally meet you and Troy.

I've heard so much about you guys.

Oh, and it's so nice to finally meet you too.

He must really like you, if he's

having us meet you already.

I certainly hope so.

I like him a lot.

Oh, Reggie.

I shouldn't tell you that, should I?

Wait a minute.

Is that supposed to be the bread?

It was.

It's a little burnt, huh?

A little?

Looks like one of Wesley Snipe's ears, brother.

It's burnt.

Bump that, we don't need bread, the carbs.

Lets just get everything else,

get it over to the table, and then have a great dinner.

But I didn't burn nothing else.

You sure?

Yes,grab this.

Bon appetit, everybody.

And, this is my mama's meatloaf recipe,

and I hope you enjoy it.

Don't say nothing bad about it if you don't.

Oh, it looks delicious, Reggie.

Yeah, you really outdid yourself this time, bro.

- Thank you. - It looks amazing.

Thanks, baby.

Thank you, hey and I'm really glad y'all could make it.

I really wanted you guys to meet Lucky.

Y'all know how long it's been since

I've had a special woman in my life.

Yeah, it sure has been a long time.

Hey, woah, woah.

Really?

Ouch, well, and if it's up to me,

she's not going anywhere for awhile.

Or me.

I'm good.

So where are you from Lucky?

D.C., originally, but I came here after Katrina.

I didn't know that.

Yeah, I love New Orleans.

I'd probably still be there if my job

wasn't downsized actually.

Well, I guess I'm glad that they did downsize me.

Me too.

So special, well what did you do?

I was a nutritionist at one of the main hospitals there.

After the storm, things just kind of,

I don't know, they were never the same.

So I needed work, I came here.

Well I'm sure it's a lot different than New Orleans.

It's so different.

It's a lot quieter here, I guess is how I'd say it.

I'm getting used to it, you know, I'm adapting.

I think it's been two years now.

Well it's a little quiet here,

but I think it's the perfect place

to raise kids, you know?

Excuse me.

You okay?

No, I'm...

Too spicy?

It's the wrong pipe, you know.

Okay.

Sorry.

Oh, got an announcement.

What's that?

Don't look like that, not that announcement.

Oh, okay.

No, I'm buying a house.

Oh my god!

That's great!

When?

Well I met with my realtor today,

and I gave him my wishlist, and we're

gonna go look at some houses next week.

That's amazing, wow.

And, I mean if you wouldn't mind,

if you're not too busy, maybe you

can come help me pick out the final one.

Really?

Yeah.

Moving too fast.

Gesundheit.

Feet up under the table, and you

kicked my bunion, that's my bad foot, relax.

Well you know what, enough about what's

going on on this side of the table.

What's going on with the Drummond family?

Nothing.

Chilling, we cool over here, right?

Well what do you two do?

Well I'm an actress.

Really, oh my gosh, that's so exciting.

I always thought it'd be really interesting

to get paid to act.

Now the getting paid part is the challenge.

I'm looking for a new agent, so I can get some more work.

Well baby I told you, you should hire me as your agent.

I can get you out there working, boo.

What do you know about professional acting, Troy?

Everything, Piper.

Well no, what do you do, Troy?

Oh me.

Well I'm a retired comedian.

Retired?

You seem a little young to be retired.

That's funny, that's exactly what I said.

Well no, no.

See, I'm actually looking for a job right now.

You know what I mean, it's just

I'm in transition, so, you know.

It's gonna work out though.

I done put out some applications.

Oh, okay, well what's your background,

'cause maybe I can get the word out to my friends

around town, or...

Anything that requires sitting, and a lot of talking.

She know you.

Oh, you are just funny, you should

be the comedian in the family.

She's just a riot.

You know what though, man?

Honestly, I always thought you'd

be good in something like sales.

Oh man, well you know, I can sell

cat food to a dog, you dig?

But it's not like they handing out jobs like that

these days, Obama's trying to get it together,

it's taking a little while, but you know.

It's not like you've been looking either.

You know what?

Put me on front street in front of everybody.

Let the record show that Troy Drummond

is looking for a job, okay?

Well I will toast to that.

Me too.

Yeah, yes.

Lets toast to that, babe.

Babe, lets toast.

Yes, employment, and enjoyment, cheers.

I'm sorry, babe.

I didn't mean to be harsh, I just really

needed to vent a little bit, I'm sorry.

I know, but you venting in front

of my homeboy and his girl, I understand.

You know, I know I've been a little complacent

over the past year, but I got your back.

We'll work it out, I love you.

I love you too.

Aw, that is...

That's the Drummond family I know.

It's beautiful.

My wife right here, but you know

we bout to start trying, too, to put

a little family together, 'cause her

biological clock is always ticking over here.

She always touching on the kid, trying...

- Troy, no. - It's the truth.

Hey how cool would that be,

if we had kids at the same time?

They could play together and stuff.

How soon are you talking...

You're talking five, or seven years?

Two, three years, tops.

Yeah.

See, if you just give me a second.

Sorry, excuse me.

You okay?

No, yes, I'm fine.

Was it the meatloaf, I told you it was undercooked.

That's my mama's recipe, what'd I say?

Don't make me...

You just didn't execute it right.

Hey man, what's going on with your girl?

She's great, isn't she?

I mean she's everything you said she was,

she just seems a little hesitant when

it comes to the topic of children.

Yeah.

You think?

Five years, seven years?

Maybe she's just nervous about meeting you guys,

man, that's a lot of pressure.

Y'all my best friends, that's like...

And she don't eat a lot.

Don't...

Listen, I understand you love it,

you know, chew slower, and save room for dessert.

Dessert?

Oh, you're gonna spoil me.

Yes, and will there be anything wrong if I do?

No.

There would be nothing wrong with that.

Good.

Okay, so lets get down to it.

I know that one of you guys has a story about him.

Who's going first, who's going first?

Babe, tell 'em about the hair, tell her about the hair.

That's what I say, now you know...

Be gentle.

Now you know he used to have long hair, yep.

He used to have long hair.

- How long are we talking? - Long.

Yeah, like priest from Super Fly.

Really?

She's not here.

Oh hey, sis.

Don't hey sis me.

Looks like you had a good time.

Actually I did.

She was really nice, Paula.

Was that right?

And really smart.

She seems to have a good career,

so that eliminates any concern about

her being with Reggie for the money.

Oh, does it?

Paula I'm not gonna play this whole

woman scorned thing with you.

I'm not asking you to.

Okay.

I know you may feel a little left out,

and that's completely understandable.

But it's unfair of you to think that

I'm gonna go on this witch hunt with you.

I just wanted to know how it went.

And I'm telling you that it went good.

It went good.

Reggie's getting a house.

Oh wow, a house?

A house.

You know, makes sense.

He has millions of dollars, he's always

wanted a family, and now he found

someone that he really cares about.

And he doesn't wanna waste any more time.

I guess that makes sense.

Thank you.

That is the first reasonable thing

you've said in weeks, you were really starting to worry me.

Oh, don't worry about me.

Matter fact, I have a little update of my own.

Remember that cop that pulled me over for speeding?

The one who went for your old little crying bit?

Oh yeah, him.

What about him?

Okay, I called him up and asked him

to do some research for me.

Research on who?

Lucky.

Lucky?

Okay, I can already see where this

is going, and I don't feel like entertaining

you right now, I'm going to bed, Paula, good night.

Oh, okay.

Have a good night.

Sleep tight.

Don't let those bed bugs bite.

Well what did he say, Paula?

Lucky has an ex.

So, we all have an ex.

You have several, remember?

Well Lucky, has an ex-husband.

No way.

Oh way.

I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation.

Oh really?

Since when is it okay to hide vital information

from somebody that you're trying

to spend the rest of your life with?

Okay, I'll admit, I know it doesn't look good,

but you know, maybe she thought Reggie wouldn't understand.

It was probably one of those starter marriages.

What, a starter marriage?

What is that?

When you get married in your 20's.

Some of them work out, but for the most part,

they fail because what the heck do

you know about life and love that young?

Oh, okay.

Well last I checked, Lucky's not in her 20's.

And her divorce was finalized last year.

Oh.

Well maybe it has something to do with Katrina.

Her husband cheated on her with somebody named Katrina?

I cannot believe Officer Houston

did not share that with me.

Hurricane Katrina, fool.

She relocated here after all that stuff.

I'm sure it was like the stress,

and the strain of all that, that just broke up the marriage.

Wow, Piper, I thought you would be on my side.

Like I can't imagine what you would've said

to me, if I withheld information like

this about being married before?

Paula, it is not about sides, you're my sister,

I love you, okay?

And I love Reggie too, he's one of my best friends.

I want both of you happy.

Well Reggie doesn't deserve to be kept

in the dark about something this major.

Alright.

It's not off to a good start, that's all I'm saying.

Okay, and I'm not gonna argue with you on that.

But I'm gonna tell you like this.

It's gonna take more than some

sketchy news about a past marriage, to change Reggie's mind.

Okay, I was there tonight.

He is falling in love with her.

The way he looks at her...

I'm sorry but he adores this chick.

So what are you saying?

You need to move on.

I'm sorry, Paula, I'm gonna go to bed.

I'll see you in the morning, okay?

Reggie, Reggie!

Hey, hey, I almost got hit by a car man, okay?

You got to put some reflectors on this thing, or something.

How in the world could a car miss you, first of all?

Unless they were trying to hit you.

Very funny, my life is not worth

new membership at Fit and Fab.

I'm done, I'm done with this today.

Oh, god.

Oh, yeah, I feel lightheaded.

I think I'm suffering from P, D...

TSD?

Post-traumatic stress disorder does

not work like that man.

Aye, Stanley, I wanna come to the club

for the grand re-opening.

And I especially wanna be there for the special guest.

Okay, yeah, well yeah.

I got some tickets, what you need.

Oh, but you need to tell me who's

the special guest first.

I ain't tell you?

No.

It's Kevin Hart.

Oh, what, what?

Hi, what did you say about Kevin Hart, what's going on?

That's the special guest for the comedy

club grand re-opening.

Stanley, I love Kevin Hart.

Oh, that little man makes me laugh.

How you not gonna tell me?

Dude, I've been talking about this for the past month,

alright, now you just happen to be in luck.

I did get my hands on the last 10 tickets.

Who want 'em, cash me out, come on, cash me out.

Slow your roll Reginald, ladies first.

What you want, what can I get you?

Two, two for me.

Bam, two for you.

Gracias.

How many you need?

One for me.

Oh come on now girl, comedy ain't no fun alone.

I don't have much of a choice.

Awkward, thank you.

And who for you?

I need four, Troy will kill me if I don't

get one for him and Piper.

Troy, Troy's had tickets for weeks.

Yeah, he bought my first two.

What?

That's messed up, give me two then.

Alright.

Okay, same time, same time.

There we go, alright.

Nice doing business with you kind folks

this afternoon, I like that.

Alright bruh, I'm about to go to lunch.

I'll be back.

Three o'clock.

You look nice today, Paula.

Thank you.

How's business?

Oh business is great.

I just got back from meeting with three new clients,

brother, two sisters, they just

opened that hot new restaurant downtown.

Way too busy to date, so they hired me to hook them up.

Yay.

You know if things don't work out

between me and this guy, I might hire you too.

I don't know if it's them or me,

but if things keep going the way they are,

I may end up single.

No you will not.

Not with Ms. Paula around.

Honey, you are too beautiful.

I got you covered, I will give you a discount.

Yay, 'cause you seem to have a great record.

Yeah, I do.

I have a knack for hooking up other people.

Helping them find love.

It's kind of my thing.

Man, this job search thing is ridiculous.

You are not the father.

This crazy.

Oh, hey babe.

What in the world do you have on?

You can officially call off the job search.

You're my new agent.

Honey, that is awesome.

I'm so glad that you're rocking with me.

I promise you, I will not let you down, okay?

You have one month to make something happen, Troy.

No worries, sweetheart, no worries.

Trust me.

Tell me about your day, what happened?

He sends me on this audition for a hot chocolate

commercial, and fails to mention that

all of the speaking parts are in Swedish.

Troy!

Oh, no, I'm sorry.

I know we getting rid of the agent,

but can we keep the outfit?

I'm not in the mood right now, seriously.

I know, I know, I was just trying to make you laugh, okay.

It just seems like you need to get away for a little bit.

There's just too much going on between

my acting career going down the drain,

and my sister has basically labeled

me as a sell-out, because I don't hate Lucky.

You know what, I figured that was going to happen.

Don't let Paula put you in the middle of all of that, okay?

That's easier said than done.

She found out she was married before.

Lucky.

What, to who?

To her ex-husband, I don't know his name.

Wait a minute, does Reggie know about this?

No, and you're not saying anything either, Troy.

Oh no, no, no, no, no, I can't have

my man walking around with Lucky

thinking she's some kind of saint,

when in all actuality she's a black widow, you serious?

You see, there you go again.

Blowing things out of proportion, as usual.

I didn't say that her ex-husband came up missing.

You're staying out of it.

I'm serious, Troy.

If we get in the middle of this,

he's gonna think we're trying to ruin

things because of Paula.

But this is crazy though, Piper.

Like, what else is she hiding?

I don't know Troy.

But we're staying out of it.

Period.

Whatever you say.

Ah.

If you keep your mouth shut, I'll report this outfit stolen.

And it's yours.

Reggie, you are on your own.

I think I need to make up the bed.

You gonna make up the bed?

Yeah.

Yeah, I think I'm gonna help you,

'cause I'm in the mood for some hot chocolate.

Lets go.

Swedish.

Oh yeah?

You got the accent too?

Yeah, do the audition.

I don't know why I didn't think about this earlier.

I know I am not imagining things.

Yes!

I knew it.

Children.

Absolutely cannot wait, you liar.

Oh this is good stuff.

What is wrong with you?

Sorry.

We're sleeping.

Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

Come here, come here, I wanna show you something.

Come here!

What, Paula?

Okay, look.

This is Lucky's profile, yes.

Brace yourself, but look.

It says she did want kids.

She lied.

Guess she figured that'll get her through

the door, and then she lied her way through the rest.

What do you even want me to say about this?

I want you to say that I'm not crazy.

Okay.

You're not crazy, now I'm going back to sleep.

No wait, not until you tell me what

to do with all of this information.

Look, if Lucky has any bad intentions

for Reggie, it'll come out on its own.

But it's so hard to see someone you...

Someone you what?

Someone you love.

See someone you love being lied to.

Remember when we were in high school

and you were dating Horace Nickles, and

you were so madly in love?

Yes, I try hard to not remember that.

Well, when I saw him in the mall,

kissing Carla Thompson, I never thought

twice about coming home and telling you.

But your response broke my heart.

You were mad at me.

Are you sure?

I'm positive.

You accused me of wanting Horace

for myself, and all types of crazy stuff.

And all I was doing was looking

out for somebody that I loved.

Okay.

I see where you're going.

Sometimes you just have to let people see for themselves.

Yeah.

Eventually I did though.

And Carla, she called me, she told me everything,

we confronted Horace, and then that's

when the matches started flying.

I'm not proud of that.

It wasn't your best moment either.

I know.

But you live and you learn.

I've come a long way.

You have.

So you get what I'm saying, right?

Yes, I do.

Good.

I need more concrete evidence.

Are you serious, Paula?

What?

I didn't get a fair shot.

All I want is a fair chance at love, Pipe.

You're not gonna let this go, are you?

Can't.

Then go for it.

Follow your heart.

Thank you.

Thanks, sis.

I hope it's worth it for you.

Me too.

Well I'm going back to sleep, be quiet.

I will.

Yelling.

Quiet.

Why don't you go to sleep?

My brain's a-turning.

My evil plan...

No I'm teasing, I'm just...

Good night.

Bye.

What else she done lied about?

Name's probably not even Lucky,

I mean who names their child Lucky?

Ah, Paula's not gonna be able to make it tonight.

She's gonna miss the show of the year.

You know, I just noticed something on the ticket.

Does Kevin Hart's name have an E in it?

I think he does.

No, he doesn't.

You think this is a typo?

You don't think that Stanley would sell

bootleg tickets for a Kevin Hart show, do you?

No, I think that's illegal.

Like I said, you don't think that Stanley

would bootleg his own grand re-opening?

Well, I hope not.

I mean it's a sold out crowd tonight.

Yeah.

Yeah!

Yes, yes, yes, thank y'all for coming out.

Thank y'all for coming out.

It's gonna be a wonderful show tonight.

You're all gonna die.

What, who says that?

No, for real.

It's gonna be a lovely night, you know.

The mega, grand re-opening of The Spot, clap.

Clap.

Make your hands touch.

Yes, yes.

Also give it up for my boss, Bruce.

Give it up for Bruce.

Yep.

The man who pays the bills.

Listen, it's gonna be a wonderful show for y'all tonight.

Without further ado, getting right

to it, coming to the stage, this next

comic, way past hilarious.

I mean, alright, alright, alright.

You know what I'm saying?

All the way from Los Angeles.

Give it up for Kevin Heart!

Woo, woo, yeah.

I know what you're thinking, I know what you're thinking.

This guy looks just like Denzel Washington, right?

Just dark everything, saying man around here.

You know what I'm saying?

No?

Well, yeah, Kevin Heart.

That's h-e-a-r-t.

Like the one in your chest, the one

that keeps you alive, 'cause I got lively jokes.

Yeah, matter of fact, my man, just pass this around please.

Don't lose it though, I'm a organ donor.

Where y'all going?

This happens every...

Look, hey.

I got jokes, I'm funny.

Do you mind if I practice with y'all?

Yeah, go ahead man.

Alright, cool, so has your mom

ever embarrassed you in front of your girl?

Yeah, yeah.

Yes, you feel what I'm saying?

It's like the same thing, see 'cause she came over...

Well, I invited my girl over to my mom house,

'cause I stay with my mom, you know,

and she made dinner, and she was like,

"Son, make sure you eat your vegetables," right?

You know what, what time does traffic die down?

In about an hour.

Okay, in the next 45 minutes,

we need to be up out of here.

In the next four or five minutes

we need to be out of here.

I told you that Stanley bamboozled us.

I told you guys.

Oh, girl, girl you fine.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, playa.

That's my wife.

Oh that's your wife, that's you?

I'm not a homewrecker, I'm all about

love and happiness, man.

No.

I'm sick too.

Oh you already got...

Everybody hugged up.

Ah.

It was hilarious.

Craziness.

Hey, what's up sis-in-law?

What's up guys?

Hey.

Why didn't you come to the show?

I figured by the time I get there it'd be too late.

So I didn't go.

But I know you guys got some good pictures

of Kevin Hart. Oh we did.

I know you brought me pictures.

Oh we did, you have it babe?

Yeah.

Here it is.

Uh-huh, who is that?

That is Stanley's headliner.

Kevin Heart, spelled, h-e-a-r-t.

You're joking?

No, I'm dead serious.

We couldn't even believe it ourselves,

but technically it's not Stanley's fault.

It's really ours, and the other 100 people

that didn't pay attention to the spelling

of the name on the ticket.

Wow.

Hey, can't knock the hustle.

Consider yourself lucky for not even being there.

Lets not use that name.

Oh, I'm sorry.

So how was your day?

It was actually pretty good.

You know what, I've decided I'm going to move on, yeah.

Tomorrow I'm gonna go to the gym,

I'm gonna clean out my locker, you know.

And you just shouldn't have to force love.

Wow, talk about change of heart.

Yeah, well I'm happy for him, I want what's best for him.

I care less about Lucky, but...

Good.

I'm proud of you, and your timing couldn't be better.

Not now, not now.

What, she's over it.

What?

Well, after the show, Reggie asked

me to go ring shopping with him.

Ring shopping for what?

For a ring, Paula.

For Lucky.

You're over it?

Yeah, I'm good.

I'm great.

See I told you she wasn't over it, yeah.

Hey, Roquelle.

Hi, Lucky.

I'm here to have lunch with Reggie.

Oh, he's not here yet.

Can I just wait in his office then?

Oh yeah, sure, go ahead.

Alright thank you.

Oh, you're welcome.

Ah muy bien, you're doing great.

Hey.

No, no, no, I'm at the gym having lunch.

I know we're going to see the final three houses tomorrow.

Oh, I'm so excited.

I know, I know.

Do I feel bad?

About what?

Listen, by the time Reggie realizes that

I don't wanna have kids, he's gonna

be so in love with me, he won't know

what to do with himself.

Please, he's out ring shopping already

for crying out loud.

Seriously.

Yeah.

I know, it's a done deal.

I'm gonna be having a spring wedding.

You can be my maid of honor.

No, I do love him.

I love him a lot, I just...

I don't want kids, you know, and I never will.

Yeah.

I know, I know I should've just told him, but...

You know what, he's just gonna have to be alright with it.

Besides, once I have the ring, and I'm

down the aisle, all is fair, right?

Isn't that a saying, I think that's a saying.

You know what, I really shouldn't talk

about this in here.

Okay.

Okay, yeah, I'll call you after the first house.

Okay.

Bye hon.

Oh, there you go.

Hey, hey you.

What's up girl, how you doing?

I'm good.

You alright?

How you doing?

I'm good, I'm good.

You sure?

Yeah.

I kind of heard your show was a bust.

Kind of heard wrong.

Whatever, whatever, I ain't sweating that.

I ain't tripping on that, look, we gonna be aight.

Me and Troy, we about to do our

promotional thing, and you know,

we gonna be the dynamic duo.

Well that's good, that's good.

Hey, thanks for letting me use your spot

to have my meeting, I appreciate that.

Oh, no problem, no problem.

How many people you expecting?

Just one, yeah, Lucky.

Right, go ahead, let me get this for you.

Let me escort you right on out the door, come on.

What?

No, y'all ain't fighting in here.

That's what you're not gonna do, okay?

I just painted the place, look at the floors man.

I got the shine, come on.

Okay, Stanley, do I really look like the

type to be fighting?

Stop it.

Not really, but you never can tell these days.

Listen, we won't be long, okay?

I promise.

Alright, alright I'm gonna be in the back if you need me.

Okay.

I don't hit women though.

But I got a sister...

I think I'll be fine, Stanley, thank you.

Alright, I'm just saying.

Hey.

Hey, Stanley.

Be careful.

Yeah, good to see you.

- Hey. - Hi.

How you doing?

- Hey. - Oh.

Thanks for coming by on such a short notice.

Yes.

You know what, I...

Have a seat.

Yeah, I am really glad that you

called because things have been so awkward

between us, ever since...

Yeah, I know.

- Yeah. - Yeah, right.

I don't wanna keep you too long.

I just want to share with you some paperwork that I found.

Okay, what is this?

That's the application you filled out

when you became a client.

Okay, why am I looking at this?

Well because Reggie thought that I made a mistake.

Now see, he thought that you told me

that you didn't want kids, when in fact,

you kind of lied on your application.

Lied?

That's an interesting choice of words.

How so?

Well, 'cause you're trying to make

me sound vicious, or something.

I mean, there's a lot in here.

It was an oversight.

Oh, yeah, there's a lot of questions in there.

All the yes's and no's.

And then there's the part where you say,

"I absolutely cannot wait to have children."

I have enough information to shut your

whole little relationship down.

But I'd actually take more pleasure

in watching you do it.

I'm sorry, watching me do what?

Watching you tell Reggie that you lied

on your application, to trick him into a relationship.

Okay.

That it?

No, actually you should also probably

mention that you were married before.

Yeah, I know that too.

Wow.

You're a lot more pitiful than I thought you were.

You know what?

I'm not telling him anything.

Fine, I will.

Why do you care?

Like, why are you doing this?

What does it matter to you?

Because he's also a client, and a friend.

Okay, I introduced you to Reggie.

And then you tried to steal him from me,

that's what this is really about, right?

Okay, that did not happen.

At least not yet, you know.

Wow.

Okay this is not gonna make him leave me.

If that's what you're thinking, if that's

your big plan, it's not gonna work.

Well then you have nothing to worry about sweetheart.

Look, I will give you two days.

How about that?

I'll give you 48 hours, you can tell him yourself,

or you can let me do it.

That's your choice.

Trying to fight for your man, huh?

Hey.

Gotta be willing to do something for love, right?

You're not gonna win this one, sweetheart.

Okay, you and your little games,

your little plan, your cute little outfits,

your flirting, you think I don't notice that?

Yeah, I do.

It's not gonna work, you know why?

Because he loves me, he loves me.

I know.

He also loves a little bit of truth and honesty.

Are you familiar with those terms?

Oh, you're not, you're not.

Everything okay?

Yes.

Yes, everything is...

It's, you know, it's...

Little misunderstanding.

I got it.

Thank you.

You welcome, Ms. Lucky?

There's a two drink minimum, after six.

I had a long day, but that's funny.

No, no, for real.

Two drink minimum.

It's like 6:01.

Like I said.

After six.

Thank you for your patronage, ma'am.

Y'all come back now, hear?

Hey, you have a second?

Yeah, what's up?

So, I'm not trying to be nosy, or anything,

I just wanna make a slight observation.

I'm listening.

Okay, well do you remember the brief

period of time, before you went to Paris?

You were so much more excited than you are now.

It's just...

I got a lot on my mind, you know?

Had to accept the fact that I lost

a really good friend in Paula,

and at the same time I'm planning

my future with Lucky.

I know that you have your hands full

and everything, but it's more than that.

You're just not yourself anymore.

I guess it's true what they say, huh?

Money can't buy love.

No it can't.

It can't buy peace of mind, it can't buy happiness.

Money just makes things a little easier.

Good news is, I'm closing on my new

house in a few weeks.

And that's exactly what I mean.

You don't even sound excited.

That's because I want a wife,

and kids to enjoy it with Roquelle.

What Luther said was right, "A house is not a home."

That's true, Reggie, but you can't

rush things between you and Lucky.

Is that what everybody thinks I'm doing?

And who's everybody?

Look I came here to talk to you, friend to friend.

I really wanna see you happy.

And, I think you're moving too fast with Lucky.

Well you're not the only one.

But I just think that she's it.

You know, and I'm going with my heart on this one,

and plus, I already bought the ring.

I guess I'm too late then.

Yep, you are officially too late, bow!

Ay, dios mio!

Does that mean you like it?

Yes, it's beautiful.

It really is.

Thank you, Piper helped me pick it out.

Aw, Reggie, I hope it all works out.

Thank you, me too.

By the way, Stanley's been insubordinate.

About what?

He's way out of uniform.

Alright, come on.

Y'all are worse than two fifth graders.

Stanley!

That's it, dig.

Turn around.

Dig.

So you told the big dog, huh?

Stanley, what's going on man?

Huh?

What is this?

What's what?

This, what is this shirt?

Oh, this right here?

Yes.

Oh, nothing, nothing, this is just

me trying to show you how to do the right thing.

For love, feel me.

You know what I'm saying, like Spike Lee,

Do the Right Thing.

Like ET.

ET?

Cab Calloway.

What?

Martin Luther King.

You been straddling the fence long enough.

What fence?

Look, I really think you're overstepping

your boundaries on this.

Okay, I might be, but at least I picked a side.

And guess which team I'm on?

You know?

Time for you to pick a side, pick a team, Reggie Brooks.

He won't take it off.

Look man, Stanley, I really respect your opinion, I do.

But I'm gonna need for you to take

the t-shirt off, please.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's not gonna happen.

Yeah, yeah, see I'm making a statement.

I'm taking a stand.

Feel what I'm saying bruh?

Yeah, I do, I do, bruh.

And, to avoid you taking a stand at the

unemployment office, I'm gonna need

you to take the t-shirt off.

Why so serious?

I'm just kidding.

I'm just playing dog, come on man,

you know these just jokes man, come on man.

You know I'm team Reggie.

Matter fact, I'm getting ready to call

my t-shirt dude, and have him make me

up a shirt called, Team Reggie, pause.

You know what, let's not, and say we did.

For real though, just send me a jpeg of your face.

But one with the outline of the mustache,

you feel me?

Yeah, I'm never gonna do that.

Hi.

Hey, Lucky.

Hey, Lucky.

- Lucky, what's up? - Hey.

Look at you, here.

Yes, I'm here.

Hey.

Hi.

Hi, can we talk?

Yes, yes, yes, come on.

Yes, yes, yes.

So what's going on baby, you sounded

distressed on the phone.

Can we sit down?

Yeah, make yourself at home.

Okay.

I have something that I need to tell you.

Okay, come on, you know that we

don't keep secrets, and all that stuff.

What's up?

Can you promise not to be angry?

Lucky.

Look, it's okay, what is it?

Okay.

When I moved from New Orleans,

I didn't just leave my water logged home,

and my job behind, I left an ex-husband.

An ex-husband?

Yes, okay, I was married.

I was married before, but it was for two short years,

and it never should have happened.

Look, no wait, okay.

When I joined Paula's dating service, I just...

I wanted a fresh start.

You know, I wanted to start over.

Completely over, and I just wanted

to leave what was in the past behind me.

Well...

It's not the end of the world.

And I am glad you told me.

Okay.

Look, Lucky.

I love you.

Okay?

And to me that's more important than

any ex-husband, or any of that, okay?

So, it's cool.

It's cool.

There's more.

Oh, great.

I'm not sure how much more good news I can take today.

I lied.

On the matchmaker questionnaire.

It was not Paula's mistake, thinking

that I wanted kids, she thought that

because I said that, because...

Because, you know that's what men want you to say.

They expect me to want kids, and

I was just tired of feeling like a freak about it.

And so I just said that I did.

Is that...

Is there anything else coming, before...

No.

You know I get it.

Nobody wants to be rejected.

It's understandable, and...

Besides, I mean we're past all that.

You know, we're...

I mean you wouldn't have come back if

you weren't ready, you know, to go there

eventually with me, and have kids, and you know

you hadn't changed that in your heart,

and in your head, right?

And that's what matters, what's in your heart.

Right, yes.

That's what matters, you don't hate me?

You hate me.

Hate you?

No, did you just hear me say I love you, woman?

I love you so much I can't stand it.

Okay, I don't hate you.

I'm so sorry, I didn't want to lie to you, I just...

I really didn't wanna lose you.

I was...

Hold on.

I was hoping that...

This was gonna be a lot more romantic.

Come here.

Oh my god.

Lucky James.

Will you marry me?

Oh my god.

Oh my god.

Oh my god, it's so amazing, look at this ring.

It looks so good.

Is that a yes, I got bad knees.

Oh my, yes, yes, I'm sorry, I got caught up.

Yes, I cannot wait to be your wife.

Oh, I'm gonna be Mrs. Brooks.

Oh my gosh, I have to call my mom.

No, you know what, I should call my best friend.

I'll call them on a three way.

Bye, Stanley, bye.

I'll walk her to her car.

Oh man, that was fun.

Hey family.

Hi.

Hey.

Dinner will be ready in a minute.

You're awfully chipper.

I just feel good.

What's up?

Nothing, I just feel good.

Like really good.

You know what I'm saying?

What's up with the bags?

What's the occasion?

Oh, sales, your sister can't resist.

Oh, my sister, 'cause those are men's bags.

Those are men's bags.

I'm just gonna take these in the room.

So exhausted, the mall was so crowded.

I have never been a fan of the mall.

You know I'm an online shopper until the day I die.

Alright, cut the small talk.

What gives?

I don't know what you're talking about.

What did you do?

I didn't do anything.

You know I'm gonna find out one way or another, right?

You know what, Piper, I just need you to taste this.

Are you trying to distract me with food right now?

Who me?

Yeah.

No.

You know Reggie's on his way over.

Oh well, good.

Actually there's enough food for all of us.

So you're not the least bit concerned

with the fact that Reggie's about to come over?

Nope, why?

Is he bringing Lucky?

Oh, no, he's not bringing Lucky.

So what's up with him anyway?

How's he doing?

He's good.

Picking out his new house, and...

Stuff.

Stuff.

You can say it.

Say what?

That Reggie is buying a house,

and he's planning to ask Lucky to marry him.

I'm going to change.

Hurry back.

Okay, keep it together, keep it together, keep it together.

Oh, how you doing Reggie?

Dinner will be ready in a minute, if you want some.

Hey, Paula.

I'm actually not gonna stay long,

I just wanted to talk to Piper and Troy about some stuff.

About some stuff?

You know you don't have to speak in code.

Okay, I need to talk to them about Lucky.

Okay, well I can leave.

No, no, I don't want you to leave,

but I don't want you to feel uncomfortable either.

Look, I'm fine, Reggie, I am.

I've accepted the fact that you two

have a future together.

Hey.

Oh, it smells delicious, hey Reggie.

What's up man?

How's the house hunting going?

Going good, we close next week, man.

I can't wait for y'all to see the place, it's beautiful.

Rooms everywhere, square footage everywhere.

Congratulations.

What part of town is it?

West side, over by the new stadium.

Oh, that's a great area.

I have a couple of new clients out there.

Yeah, it's a lot going on over there.

Look, I need your opinion about something.

It's about Lucky.

Oh, what?

For crying out loud, I am a big girl, I can handle it.

Come on now.

Everybody relax.

And not to mention, I put you two together,

so I might have some insight.

True, this is true.

Okay, so today she came by the office.

Out of nowhere, and started confessing stuff.

Confessing about what?

Some rather heavy stuff.

She's got an ex-husband.

An ex-husband?

She did not disclose that to me.

She did not disclose that to me either.

Apparently after Katrina, when she left

New Orleans, she wanted to leave

all of that stuff behind, including him.

I guess she said it was a short marriage, and all of that.

Well how does that make you feel,

being that she lied to you?

Well I wouldn't actually say lied to, per se.

Maybe she left out some key information.

Well, what else did she leave out?

She said she lied on the survey with Paula,

about wanting to have kids.

Said she wanted to a fair shot

at getting to know me.

You know, and if the opportunity presented

itself, and you know, we actually hit

it off, then she would explain all of that stuff in person.

I don't think we're really in

a place to give you any advice on this, Reggie.

I think you really need to figure out,

you know, how this all makes you feel.

I have.

I asked her to marry me.

- Oh, okay. - Oh.

What?

Can you two excuse us for a second?

- Come on babe. - Oh yeah, yeah.

You asked her to marry you?

Reggie after all of that, that you just said?

Should've known you couldn't handle this conversation.

Okay, come on, don't do me like that, alright?

What else did she say?

That's it.

She had nothing else to say?

That's it.

What are you getting at Paula?

That's all I need.

Alright, wait one second.

What's this?

Listen, by the time

Reggie realizes that I don't wanna have

kids, he's gonna be so in love with me

he won't know what to do with himself.

Please, he's out ring shopping already,

for crying out loud.

Seriously, yeah.

I know, see it's a done deal.

I'm gonna be having a spring wedding.

You can be my maid of honor.

No, I do love him.

I love him a lot, I just...

I don't want kids, you know, and I never will.

Yeah.

I know, I know I should've just told him, but...

You know what, he's just gonna have to be alright with it.

Besides once I have the ring, and

I'm down the aisle, all is fair.

Right?

Isn't that a saying, I think that's a saying.

You know what, I really shouldn't talk about this in here.

Okay.

Okay, yeah, I'll call you after the first house.

Okay.

Bye, hon.

Wow.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I knew she wasn't gonna tell you everything,

so this, right here, was my ace in the hole.

Ace in the hole?

This is my life, not a game, Paula.

This is an ace in the hole, this is a game to you?

What, no it's not a game to me.

I'm not the one playing games, Reggie.

Lucky's playing games.

I can't believe you would go this

far to try and make Lucky look bad.

What?

What?

What are you talking about, Reggie, I did this for you.

I care about you, Reggie, deeply.

Why else do you think I would do all of this?

You got a really funny way of showing it, you know that?

You know, tell Piper, and Troy, that

I'll talk to them later.

Reggie, are you serious?

Yeah, I'm very serious.

I'll cal you after the second house.

I heard you two, you can come out.

He's gone.

So that's why you were so happy earlier?

You blackmailed Lucky?

Well, sort of.

Yes.

Okay, but look, I can understand him

forgiving her about the ex-husband, right?

Even about the paperwork.

But come on, I have her on tape,

saying that she's been deceiving him.

Oh, and not only that, she plans to

continue to deceive him.

I mean we heard it.

All of it, right?

It's there.

Good job, sis?

Well...

Obviously not, okay?

'Cause he just stormed out of here, he's gone.

I don't even know if I'll ever see him again.

Somehow this got turned around to be my fault.

Wait a minute, hold on, I just think

he needs time to take this all in, okay?

But one thing's for sure, Lucky is out of the picture.

Oh, yeah, we've definitely got your back sis.

I mean we all want what's best for Reggie.

And I mean that evidence you have is undeniable.

So now you believe me?

Oh, I always believed you.

You just have to get Reggie to believe you,

'cause he can't marry Lucky.

Who knows now, right?

Hey, yo, are we ready to do this?

Oh yeah, yeah, come on, come on.

Come on.

What's up boy?

Hey man.

What's good?

Hey, hey.

What is going on here?

Well, you know nothing, just a little intervention.

Grab his legs, I got his arms, come on, come on.

Stop!

Stop it!

You guys have obviously never seen the television show.

There's a show?

No, this is just what we used to do at my house.

Look Reggie, it's time to talk.

You haven't said anything to any of us in weeks now.

I didn't have anything to say.

Yes, say something, anything.

Fine.

I guess I owe you guys an apology.

Yes.

You guys told me I was moving too fast with Lucky.

We also told you Lucky was no good,

her credit was a mess...

Oh, I'm sorry, what you was saying?

As I was saying.

I couldn't see the forest for the trees, man,

my nose was open.

You know how that is, I just...

I was trying to make things right with her,

you know make it work with her.

Well, Reggie, if it's real you don't have to force it,

like what me and my angel got going on.

Ah, y'all get on my nerves.

But you're right, you're right.

And wait a minute, if y'all back here,

who's working the front desk?

Thanks for calling Fit and Fab Fitness,

how can I help you?

Lucky, hi.

Reggie, he's busy.

Yeah, it looks like he'll be busy the

rest of his life too, okay bye.

And I owe her the biggest apology

of all, clearly.

For real though.

Yeah, I mean she really risked a lot,

trying to make sure I didn't make the biggest

mistake of my life.

Yeah, and you thought she was just hating.

I did.

But, she wasn't.

Nope.

She put your well-being ahead of you, and her friendship.

Yep.

I told her to let it go several times,

but she couldn't, and I guess she figured

it was all or nothing, after she

overheard that conversation.

That sounds unconditional to me.

Ain't that a Baby Face song?

I think so.

Hey, you can have that at you, and Paula's wedding.

Oh, wait, no, no weddings no time soon for me.

I heard that.

Ay yo, she give you the ring back?

Yeah, hey no freebies.

I know that's right.

Just let me know when you need help

picking out the next one.

I will, I definitely will.

Hey.

Thank you man.

It's all good man, you know I love you.

- Thank you. - Reggie.

Lets take this cape off you now.

And I ain't hugging y'all, y'all

get back to work, really Stanley?

Put the ring away.

Just saying, it's ice, ice, baby.

Goodness.

Excuse me girl.

Hey.

Hey.

You don't have to say it.

Oh, but I do.

I'm sorry.

I...

I love the friendship that you and I

were building, before all of this Lucky stuff.

And, you know I've never really

had a friendship like that with a woman,

other than Piper, and she's like an annoying sister,

or something, so it's different.

This is special, and I get that now.

I understand, I feel the same way.

But the good thing is we have a rare

opportunity where we can just start over

where we left off, as friends.

Yes, yes, and I would like that a lot.

I mean, I just gotta say first though

that I'm really sorry that I treated you like that.

I mean you risked me never talking to you again,

to make sure that I knew the truth about Lucky.

That's what friends are for, okay?

And I would hope you would do the same for me.

In a New York minute.

Oh good.

Good.

Are you...

Are you truly okay, you know?

I know you had a lot of plans in the future

for the two of you.

I'm good, I'm good.

Yeah, I'm just glad I'm not wasting

my time anymore, you know?

Good for you.

That's a good way to think.

But you know we're all here for you, right?

All of...

All of us are here.

Clearly.

Clearly, for you.

So, if you need anything use us, alright, Reggie.

Use us, call us, we're gonna help you

get through this, alright, anything you need.

Okay.

Okay?

Okay, well on that note, I need a favor from you.

What?

Come have dinner with me at my place.

It's gonna be my last night at my apartment, tonight,

before I move into my new place tomorrow,

and it's gonna be kind of bittersweet.

I don't really wanna have dinner alone.

Got it, no problem.

Can I bring a date?

Does he like pork, 'cause I'm gonna

cook all pork, the whole pig, tonight.

I don't know, I'll ask, I'll totally double check,

'cause I'm actually just kidding about the date.

You know what man?

Actually, you should just see your face.

Okay, so you're still single?

Yes, for now.

That's good to know.

Good to know.

Why is that good to know?

Just because, just in case.

Just because, just in case...

Anything, everything.

Hey, I'm back in biz.

What, what.

- Really? - Stanley, I love it.

That's so sweet.

Dude, there is something seriously wrong with you.

No, no, no.

It's just like the Twilight movies.

Yeah, yeah what's wrong?

Nobody say nothing to all those people

walking around with Team Jacob, and Team Edward shirts.

You are determined to wear this t-shirt.

Really?

Wow.

Bam, Team Paula, bam, Team Paula.

Don't lock eyes with me.

Bam, Team Paula, bam.

Wow.

Don't encourage him.

Sorry, he's got my face on the picture.

Please, let this be the last day

that you ever wear that t-shirt here.

I won't.

Honey, it looks like our work here is done.

So we gotta get you home so you can prepare

for your major audition tomorrow.

Oh yeah, I really want this job, babe.

What are you auditioning for?

Oh I ain't tell y'all?

I ain't tell y'all what was going on?

Well, yours truly, the new agent,

yeah, I hooked her up with an audition

for a featured extra role on the new

hit reality TV show, Real Housewives of Retired Comedians.

Oh, get out of here, that sounds fabulous.

Go Troy.

So the actress, agent team is working out good.

Yeah, it is.

What you didn't think it was, you wasn't

confident in my ability?

Of course I believed in you.

What's the look on her face for then?

What?

She's the one that doubted.

You were the one hating?

Not at all, absolutely not.

I got get to work, good luck to you sis.

Know you're gonna kill it.

I will see you all later.

See you later.

Alright.

Yeah, alright.

Listen, we gonna get up out of here too, man.

But, y'all have a good day, alright?

Bye, later.

You be good.

I am gonna be an angel.

I got a cross on my chest, I'ma be good.

And I don't pay you to smile.

Can you get back over there?

I'm going, I'm going, I'm going.

Something, do something.

Hey.

Hey.

Good to see you.

It's good to see you.

You're early.

I am, figured you'd need some

time to heat that up.

Okay, good call you were right.

What?

I missed you.

Since earlier?

Yeah, a little, is that okay?

Yeah, feelings are mutual.

Mr. Brooks.

Oh, hey, really, Mr. Brooks?

That's how we gotta handle this from here on out?

Hey, remember, I was just getting used

to the idea of not having you in my life at all, so.

Okay, that's fair.

You can have about a week to get over that.

Look, this is not Fit and Fab, okay?

You're not running the show here.

Is that right?

That's right.

Okay, I like a woman with a little fight in her.

Well good, 'cause I have a lot of fight in me.

Okay, well can you and your fight

please finish the punch for me, that'd be a big help.

I can.

You got me fit and toned, so these arms are gonna...

Okay, lets see the guns, lets see 'em.

You know.

You know, I haven't felt this good in a long time.

I'm so glad to hear that, I'm really happy for you.

You deserve it.

I'm really happy for us.

For us?

Yeah, us, I mean we both kind of,

you know, freed ourselves from some things

that were getting in our way, and blocking our

happiness, and now it kind of feels

like the possibilities are endless.

I like endless possibilities.

It's not Lucky, you can keep smiling.

What's up man?

What's going on?

Hey.

It smell good.

Where the food, where the food, where the food?

Good to see ya.

Aye Reggie, I'm so hungry.

Por favor, tell me that the food is almost ready.

Yes, dinner is ready, wash your hands.

Everybody get ready, get set up.

Bathroom here, bathroom down the hallway.

Somebody can wash 'em in the kitchen, whatever.

And get your appetites out, we finna eat.

But this reminds me of the last supper,

You got issues for that, but you

Next time we do this, it's gonna be at the new house,

so y'all gonna have to come, we gonna have to do it again.

Yay!

Yes, yes.

Check this out y'all, I love you guys.

Stanley.

Being a little sentimental.

Yes, yes I am.

Especially since I need a loan, yeah.

Okay.

No I'm gonna need like 40 bucks from each of you.

Seriously, seriously, just till next week, okay?

You know what Stanley, you are out of control.

What?

You're joking, right?

Nope, no I'm not.

No, look turns out Bruce was a fraud.

Yeah, my check bounced, so I'm looking

for a new spot to tell jokes.

Wow, look man, if you need an agent, look no further.

It's your boy.

You got me?

I got you.

- Good looking. - Word.

Oh, and I know a guy that owns

a club uptown, I'll see what he can do for you.

Okay, thank you, thank you.

And we'll get you some more hours at the gym.

And a raise.

Oh great.

Now, now we talking, that's what's up.

Oh.

Anybody else wanna help out, anybody?

You guys.

This feels like Thanksgiving.

I'm thankful for all you guys.

Your friendship means so much to me, you guys, honestly.

Aw, and I'm grateful that you guys

all appreciate me for who I am.

Loud, boisterous...

Bossy, colorful.

On a serious note, I am...

I think I'm just grateful for second chances.

You know?

And just, a new perspective on life, overall.

Well I'm grateful for each and every

one of you guys, 'cause in some

way or another you guys all make my life better.

And I'm grateful that I'm gonna have that 200,

to pay my car note, really.

Oh my gosh, Stanley, you really know

how to ruin a good moment.

He can't help it, can he?

Just can't help it. What's the problem?

And you can't have Troy as an agent.

Why not, yo, yo, what's up with that?

What's up, why selfish?

Yeah, I'm trying to move here.

You gotta know how to share me with the world now.

I'm a big time agent.

Babe you're just not gonna be

having a lot of time on your hands.

Oh no...

You not gonna make me work another

nine to five again, are you?

Troy, I'm pregnant.

Oh!

What?

Piper!

You didn't tell me.

Oh, I'm sorry sis, I just didn't want you to

tell Reggie, and then, he'd tell Troy.

I'm gonna be an auntie!

Auntie!

Alright check it out, check it out y'all.

Cheers, cheers, glasses up, glasses up.

Troy.

Wow.

Here's to bittersweet endings.

And marvelous new beginnings.

Oh, I'll toast to that.

Well said, cheers, cheers for that.

Make sure you look in the eyes, in the eyes.

And a beautiful baby.

Yes.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

And to $200.

Get out of here.

I don't have it, I don't have it.

You guys gotta start buying formula.

You bet on that one.

Lets eat.

If it's a boy can we name it Reggie?

No, absolutely not.

Why would we do that?
