Yeah, baby, 'cause, you know, I got a big heart.

Yeah. You know, I-I'll never turn somebody down.

I'm quite the philanthroper.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, baby, what you doing later on?

Why don't you...

why don't you come on by the shelter?

I got an extra bed.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Well, you know it. You know it.

Oh, my mama?

She don't even be here like that.

Nah. Nah.

Hey!

- Hold on one second. - Could I leave that here?

Beat it.

I need some help.

Uh, we're closed. And we're full.

Most people get here by 8:00. You're late.

Yeah, well, I couldn't get here by 8:00.

I came when I could. Okay?

You need to get something happening around here.

- Mr. C., what you doing here? - Ryan...

It's wet.

You know, for a second, I thought you was checking in.

Yes, I am.

Say what?

Yes.

Wait. What?

Yes, I need a bed.

Why? What happened?

What... what do you mean what happened?

What'd you do?

What are you talking about?

She put you out.

Who put me out? That's my house.

Yeah, then why are you here?

Well, if you really want to hear...

- She put you out. - No, she didn't.

She did.

No, she didn't.

I'm teaching Ella a lesson.

- A lesson? - Yes.

By staying in a shelter?

Yes.

That doesn't make any sense.

Well, it makes sense to me.

Most of the stuff that makes sense to you

makes sense to no one.

Hush.

All right.

Can you explain this to me?

I don't need to explain nothin' to you.

Why are you here?

You won't even get it.

You know, maybe you're right. Maybe I won't get it.

So, we can drop this.

Droppin'.

Okay, good.

- Good. - Great.

- Let it go. - Better.

Hey, babe.

Dang!

- Hey, I need a bed. - What?

Don't you be yelling at me.

I need a bed.

I don't got no more beds left. We full.

What... what are you saying to me?

Just look around. We're full.

Full.

Like your belly,

when your mind tell you to keep eating,

but your belly full already.

Full.

You mean like my fist is telling me

to punch you in your head...

full?

I didn't use that analogy. Actually doesn't go together.

You don't have one bed?

No, we don't.

Why don't you?

Because we're full!

I can hear you.

You got one more time to yell at me.

- I'm sorry, but you... - That is so rude.

- These people in here are asleep. - Stop!

And you're gonna just yell, no consideration, at all!

You can stop that bit.

The hell y'all looking at me like that for?

This one here.

This one here.

We got to... you got to... you just put somebody out.

Why don't you do that? Can you just put somebody out?

- No. - Okay, look.

I just need a bed, okay?

I need it, right now. I'm tired.

So, check into a hotel.

- No. - Why not?

It's expensive.

Mr. C... you're cheap.

Ryan, I just need one night. That's all.

Well, I'm sorry.

Can't help you.

- As I said... - I know. You full.

- Yes. - Okay, I get that.

You ain't got to say that no more, okay?

I get it. You full.

Took you long enough to get it.

So, we just have to put somebody out. That's all.

- What? - Yeah.

They're homeless.

They think they're homeless.

Don't have no home. Less a home.

They used to be on the street.

Matter of fact, they... they kind of prefer it, I heard.

Oh, in a documentary, they said they kind of prefer

to be out there.

'Cause they ain't got to worry about nothin'.

I can't do that, Mr. C.

Well, then, what about him?

This one right here, with the cane.

Look at his feet.

- He abides by the rules. - Look at his feet!

He abides by the rules.

And he's always on time.

I don't care about that.

That man ain't never walked on no ground.

Please.

Shoe poli... toe Polish, nails polished.

[SCOFFS]

And that cane? That'd be a $100 cane.

I know it is.

Yeah, he's holding it. Look how he's holding it, too.

- I'm gonna get it. - Mr. C.!

Get away from that man.

What about her?

What about her? She gotta go.

She got three kids, Mr. C.

Three kids?!

Yeah.

G... and all of them... and all of them are here?

Yes.

And they all got beds?

Yes. They all have beds.

That's perfect. Put all them...

c-c-can't you put all them in one bed?

And that'll free up two beds.

I got a king.

For one night.

Mnh-mnh.

Fine.

I'll just sit up for one night.

I'll just sleep over there. I'll sleep right there.

- Right there? - Yes.

Oh, no. That's not gonna happen.

That's my chair.

That's where I do all my things.

Is this a help center?

Yeah. Is that what this is?

'Cause you not helping.

'Cause you don't need help.

You ain't homeless.

You need to go home.

That's not gonna happen.

All right.

You can sleep here.

On the floor.

Right there.

Where?

Right here. Overflow area.

Why don't you put her over there?

Put her there.

No. She was here first.

I don't know why you just don't go home.

Look, you know what?

'Cause Ella thinks she know me.

That's why. Okay?

I know, right now, she think I'm gonna go out,

just drive around for a few hours

and I'm gonna go back home. No!

I'm staying out.

- Hey. - You heard me?

- I heard you. - Hmm.

And she gonna miss her big daddy.

You heard me?

Big daddy.

What?

You know, 'cause Ella can't do nothin' without me.

- She can't do nothin'. - Can't do nothin' without me.

Huh. You know that.

You sure about that?

I know she... and she calling around right now.

She calling around to everybody, trying to look for me.

- Right now? - Everybody.

Why would she call anybody? She got your phone number.

Has she called you?

I'm... I got to check. I don't think...

You didn't check it?

No. Didn't call yet.

Exactly.

She won't.

Yes, she will.

Boy, hush.

Excuse me? [COUGHS]

- Yes. - What time is breakfast?

Uh, 7:00.

What time we got to be out?

- 10:00. - Okay, good.

They got to be out at 10:00?

Man, a hotel is 11:00 to check out.

At least I can get my kids something to eat before school

and I can still make it to work.

Oh.

- You work? - Mis... Mr. C.

- What? - That's rude.

Yes, I work.

Been working for years, but my husband died,

so left with my kids, I'm out on my own.

This money just ain't enough.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

I'm sorry to hear about that.

It... it happens.

Yeah. Yeah.

So...

Don't.

When you gonna get your... go get you another place?

[CHUCKLES]

Like, gah! And be like Jack.

Okay, well, that's... that's good.

- Yeah, I can't wait. - That's good.

I'm sure. I'm sure.

Well, how... how long you been homeless?

Girl, I've been on these streets...

Five minutes!

- This man ain't homeless. - Oh, shut up.

- Ryan. - Well, good... good for you.

Good for you, 'cause having kids out here,

on these streets, it ain't no joke. Trust me.

Well, God bless you.

You, too.

You, too, sister.

You going to the bed.

Well, lights out.

Got your spot. I'm gone.

Your spot.

Where you going?

I'm going home.

Leave him alone!

Hold it tight, too.

Oh... oh! It's a weapon.

? ?

[CLEARS THROAT]

[GROANS]

[BAG THUDS LOUDLY]

Hey, babe.

Why you got all the lights on?

'Cause I was reading.

I know you wasn't sleepin'. [CHUCKLES]

[CHUCKLES]

I know you not asleep.

You been worrying about me. You ain't asleep.

Curtis, I have not been worrying about you for a while.

I've been reading the Bible, baby.

Yeah, it put me to sleep, too.

Uh...

You know you was worried where I was.

You ain't sleeping over there, okay?

You'd be in the bed, if you was asleep.

Worried about you for what?

Worried about where I was.

[LAUGHS]

You think so, baby?

Ella, come on. You been blowing my phone up.

Come on.

Curtis, I did not call you.

Not one time.

Must've been my other woman.

Well, why didn't you go over to her house?

Her husband was home.

Why are you back here?

What are you talking about? T-this my house.

It's our house.

Well, Nyla is still here.

Yeah, okay.

[MOCKINGLY] Yeah, okay.

Tell her I can stay.

Tell... tell her she can stay.

- Is that right? - Yeah.

Tell her to stay.

Tell her I said she could stay.

Well, Curtis, I already told her

that she could stay.

I'm glad you gave her my permission, baby.

You be on it.

What?

Wait, wait, wait. What... what you...

what you getting ready to do?

I'm about to get ready for bed.

N-n-n-n-n-n-n-no. Oh, no, no, no.

No, you're not.

No what?

Curtis, we got to talk before you get in that bed.

Baby, we don't talk before we go to bed.

And we certainly don't talk after.

Curtis...

Okay.

What are we talking about?

What are we talking about?

[LAUGHS]

What?

What are we talking about?

O-okay, you know you answering a question

with a question, right?

That's a sign of age.

You remember what happened to your mama.

Curtis, you listen to me, okay?

You just stormed out of here tonight.

I mean, you really performed tonight.

You owe me an apology.

No, I don't.

I mean, well, w... yes, you do.

How you figure that?

Curtis, this is our house, together.

Okay?

Yes, you are the head of it.

But I do have a say

in what goes on around this place.

[CHUCKLES] You think so, huh?

You know what, Curtis? Y-y-y-y-you play too much.

- You keep on... - Baby, I know. Come on, now.

You know I know.

You better know it.

And...

we are not the kind of people

that will put people out on the street.

I do know.

And I'm sorry.

Good.

Thank you.

Good.

And you need to talk to Nyla in the morning.

Y... baby, she can't be leaving them kids alone.

Curtis, I know that.

She has learned her lesson.

- Trust me. - Well, she better have.

- 'Cause I'm telling you... I'm telling you... - She has.

- She has. - Okay.

All right.

Good.

Good.

Now, can I get ready for bed now?

Let me think.

Is there anything else I need to say?

Yes. You can go to bed.

Thank you.

Get that pillow.

- Pick that up. - Yes, boss.

[GRUNTS]

Whoo-hoo.

Mnh-mnh.

No.

No, no, no. Curtis.

Oh, please.

No.

Cur... No, Curtis.

Baby, you need to go take a shower.

- Need to go take a shower. - What?

Need to go take a shower.

Ain't never bothered you before.

Where have you been?

What? Cur... Curtis?

Have you been to a strip club?

- Ella... - Curtis!

Tonight? No.

Then where?

No strip club tonight.

You don't go on no Thursday night.

That's amateur night.

You have.

I haven't.

Then go take a shower.

[SCOFFS]

And the hot water is lukewarm.

- What? - Yeah.

- Really? - Yes.

Thought I fixed that hot water heater.

Then that's the problem, right there.

That's it.

That's it.

Okay. I'll turn it up.

You do that.

And don't you come back in here until you all washed up.

[CHUCKLES]

Okay, babe.

- Want to take a shower with me? - Unh-unh.

Well, you really are already

washed up for tonight.

[CRICKETS CHIRPING]

What?

You can keep those.

Thank you for coming outside, Nyla.

Well, you kept calling.

Well, I wanted to apologize.

Well, there's no need for you to apologize.

Okay, well, I'll do it anyways. I'm sorry.

Look, you didn't want me to live with you,

that's fine, but did you have to embarrass me?

N... I... I'm sorry.

And we have a baby coming.

What are we supposed to do about that, huh?

I know.

Well, we need to figure it out.

- Well, baby, I know... - Don't "baby" me!

Okay.

I'm sorry.

So, are you saying we can come live with you?

No.

[SCOFFS]

- You see... - No, no. It's only because

I just got this new apartment

and it's only a studio.

All of us can't live there, right now.

But I will find a bigger place, for all of us.

Are you s...

are you sure you want to do that?

Yes, I'm sure I want to do that.

It's just that...

Well, my finances aren't in the best situation right now,

but I will fix it.

Are you sure?

- [SCOFFS] No less. - Yes, I'm sure.

I'm sure.

You don't have to ask me anymore.

- I'm sure. I'm sure. - I don't want you to feel...

I just don't want you to feel, you know,

obligated or anything.

I love you.

- I love you, Nyla. - Kendrick...

And I'm sorry.

I'm sorry... I'm sorry for everything.

You better be.

I am.

? ?

? ?

Where she at?

I know I fixed that thing.

That water heater...

I know I fixed that water heater.

I'm gonna get this.

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!

That doggone thing!

Let's do this thing.

Just one.

Okay.

That's the one I fixed.

Might be another one.

There's another one.

Might be in the garage.

[MUMBLES]

Oh, she ain't seen it.

She must not have seen it yet.

Ooh, look at this... a chip.

We're gonna come back for you.

Why do I need this?

Ella... "don't put it on the table!"

All right.

Always need this.

This, I always need.

Get this one here.

Oh, no.

This the one I always need.

Always need this one.

Get these. Okay.

Now, to find this other water heater.

Probably in the garage.

Probably in the garage.

[WHIRRING]

- Did you do that? - Uh, no.

So, it just opened?

- Yeah, I guess. - That's weird.

I know, right?

? ?

Uh...
