You want to say the whole damn soliloquy.

I'm thirsty as hell.

Whatever.

Good.

Is good.

Oh man.

You know, I stayed in that marriage way too long.

Why did you stay?

Honestly, don't take this wrong way.

I didn't want to be you.

Wait, what does that mean?

I didn't want to be alone.

Listen, I might have felt lonely every once in a while,

but I wasn't alone.

I had my baby and I had you.

Okay.

And after what happened to his dad,

I just focused all my energies on my baby.

And between that work and school,

there really wasn't time for anything else.

Yeah, but didn't you want love?

You know, someone to hold you, feel you?

Well, I had love.

You know what I mean?

After died.

There really wasn't time for that.

And you know me,

there was never any shortage of men

that will hold me when I wanted to be held,

and when I want to be bothered,

I could touch myself.

That's how your ass got carpal tunnel.

Shut up no, that is because all that typing

I was doing at work, thank you.

Okay, yeah sure.

No, but seriously,

my child was my number one priority

and it just didn't feel right

You know you a lightweight.

Girl, we are celebrating, look come on.

It's too much.

Come on.

Niecy, no.

Let's go.

Niecy, that's good that's enough.

That is enough.

Okay, what girl, we are single and free.

So let's do it single and free.

And free,

Single and free, single and free.

Pop it single and free.

Okay, okay.

Hold on now, girl

these knees don't work like they used too.

Where are you going?

What you mean where I'm going?

I'm going to my last class.

I don't get no kiss.

I didn't think you wanted one,

because you've been real quiet ever since.

Now that you're done thinking for me, I have a question.

They got this whole huge event at the end of the year,

I don't really see what the big deal is,

but apparently you get all dressed up,

rent limousines and tuxes and shit, and take a date.

So your parents can go crazy.

Invite the whole family,

the neighborhood to come take pictures.

I wasn't even going to go.

But I know how much you like to get dressed up.

So What's up, trying to go?

It's about damn time you asked me to prom,

thought I was going to have to take

one of your little homeboy.

Haha, you funny.

Oh, our colors are black and white.

Forget a limo. I want a black.

Leather interior, all black everything.

Yeah, all right.

I'm not playing Kordell.

I am not looking forward to getting back out there.

I don't want to be in a club at the bar,

trolling for dates, what?

That's for teeny babars.

Oh my God, well girl even though you're right.

We used to be in the club.

I know, till they closed the doors down,

they got to kick our asses out.

Oh, girl we was bad.

We was bad shit crazy back then.

I know.

Remember when we met those dudes at the club

and we let them talk us into taking us home with them.

Oh my God, well we was fine,

we was doing fine into that big dude said,

he was like, wait,

what did he say?

"You so cute, I'm going to handcuff you to the bed."

Your face, oh girl you was so scared.

I was praying like, Lord.

If you get us out of this one.

Yes, Jesus.

Never ever happen again ever, ever.

Ever, ever.

Ever ever.

We had to fight our way out of there,

and that's when I started carrying that gun.

Because I was like,

we are never getting caught up like that again.

Yeah, and we didn't, we did not.

Especially with you carrying Jody around.

Hmm wait, why I name it Jody?

God your so drunk, you don't never remember nothing.

Is because when I was telling you about that dude

Jody Stevens, who barely got his pants down before he came.

Oh.

He shot me dead, in the eye.

I named my gun after that speed and the accuracy.

Where she at?

Who that?

Kordell baby, what was you doing here?

Can't drive like this,

one, two, three.

Okay, okay.

Oh my baby.

Oh, he loves me girl.

Is just, what would I do without you?

Come on.

Oh no, I'm missing something.

I'm missing, oh, bye bitch.

Be quiet ma.

Hey, don't tell me to be quiet, I'm your mama.

Don't come down here fussing at me,

because you got a hang over.

I ain't got no damn hangover.

Okay, if you say so.

Okay, I got you.

And thank you for coming to get me

last night, this morning.

Oh, you're welcome,

I love hearing all about your night

and your little drunk tirade.

What'd I say.

You don't remember.

All right.

So What did you decide to do

about your teacher Ms. Leonard?

I already talked to her about changing my grade.

She wants me to do some extracurricular

study with her before practice.

Okay.

I think she wants me, I'm serious.

The way she be looking at me, I can tell.

Nigga you better save a life.

What you mean?

I mean don't get that lady killed.

You're crazy, you're crazy.

Look if it can help my grade, do you want me to do it?

Don't play with me like that, that woman is my age.

And if I find out that she's fucking around

with my 17 year old son,

I'm going to kill her, plain and simple.

So don't even do it.

Because then you'll be responsible for her death,

and for me in jail.

All right.

I'm not going to jail.

All right, all right.

I'm just playing, I'm just playing.

Got me all worked up.

It's too easy.

So ma, that woman is a happily married woman with kids,

she not thinking about me.

Better not be.

I don't know why you play with me like that.

I got to go, is too much fun.

Okay oh, are you picking my car up from Savvy's?

Sure I can do that.

Yeah, I'll Uber over there.

I'll get one of my boys to drive me.

You can do it after football practice.

I am not going nowhere today.

I bet you not, but I think I'm going to go this morning,

so don't worry about it.

Whatever, I know you just want to be flexing in my car.

See you later.

All right, bye baby.

Bye, bye.

Holy shit.

Morning, Kordell.

Morning.

How's your mom doing.

A little hungover, but she won't admit it.

You all was here drinking like some teenagers or something.

No, we were in here drinking like some adults.

The only ones that should be drinking young man.

You alright?

You seem a little hungover too.

No, I'm fine.

Me and your mom's just celebrating my divorce that's all,

grown folk stuff.

I know, I'm happy for you.

You deserve better than,

What do you know about it?

Someone who will treat you like a queen.

What are you doing?

Someone young and fresh, like he had.

Stay out of of my business Kordell.

I'm trying to make you my business, Ms. Savvy.

Don't call me that, you need to leave.

You don't want me to leave,

you want me touching it you, like this.

Kissing you.

Your mom will kill me.

Stop, please stop.

Oh damn, really Kordell.

Just as I thought, you don't want me to leave,

you're super horny.

Fuck.

Shit.

If your mom finds out.

I'm a dead bitch.

She won't find out.

Where were you?

Hey mama.

Your coach called said you didn't make it to practice.

Yeah, yeah, I had a headache at school all day

and I didn't want to go to practice and make it worse.

Lies, your ass wasn't at school all day today either.

I called Savvy to find out what time you picked up my car

and she didn't answer the phone.

So where were you Kordell and don't lie to me?

Okay mom, look,

I've been feeling a little overwhelmed,

with everything mom, school, football

I mean trying to figure out where I want to go to school

versus where everybody wants me to play.

I need a break, this one day.

I know.

I know that this is a lot on you

and this is the first time

that you've had this much pressure, I get that.

But you still cannot just skip school all day

and say the hell with all your responsibilities.

Because if I did that shit,

we wouldn't have food to eat or a roof over our heads.

I know ma, you're right, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, mom.

Um, you still didn't answer my question.

Where were you?

Oh, Just some girl house.

Oh, I take it her parents weren't home.

Please tell me you used a condom,

because I am not ready to be a grandmother right now.

Boy.

I'm just playing, of course.

Of course I used a condom.

Can I go now, please?

Nigga was putting it work today.

Shut the hell up,

nobody want to hear about your little sexcapade

with some groupie hoe.

Now why she got to be a hoe.

Because I said so.

Oh, and your is on punishment until further notice.

Baby, baby Savannah's outside, tell her to come in.

Where you all going.

To them mall.

Hey, ma said come in.

You know she going to be a minute.

She going to be a while.

No, I'm cool, tell her I'll just wait out here.

Girl, get in here I'm still getting dressed

and come talk to your nephew.

Yeah, come talk to me.

Boy, get out of way.

Boy stop, are you stupid?

My bad, I miss those lips.

What the fuck is this?

Somebody say something, why are you kissing my son?

Niecy, I'm sorry I didn't mean.

You didn't mean to what?

When he came to get your car the other day.

What?

I told him to leave.

What?

Mom, don't, mama no,

Mama, don't.

I did this.

You did what?

Niecy I tried to stop him.

Stop him, it should have never even started.

Mom listen, it was on me.

It's not her fault.

How is it not her fault?

You are a child Kordell, you're my child.

And why are you telling your child my business?

You told him intimate details about my marriage.

About Larry getting that girl pregnant.

You know how painful the situation this has been for me

and very damaging to my ego.

So when he started whispering in my ear and me,

I don't even know what happened.

So you saying it's my fault that you fucked my child.

Stop calling me a child.

Who the fuck you think

you talking to like that Kordell?

Niecy stop he's too old for you to be trying to whoop him.

Uh-uh, see you all got me all the way fucked up.

Niecy, I'm sorry.

I told you, I'm not like you.

I don't do well by myself and it shouldn't have happened.

I don't even know how I gave in.

Because you a weak bitch.

Niecy, please forgive me.

It shouldn't have happened.

No, it shouldn't have happened.

Kordell is like a nephew to you, that is my baby.

I'm not your baby, I'm a grown man.

How can you not understand that, I mean,

you talk to me about all the girls I'm with all the time

and it's always been cool.

But now, now I'm your baby.

I'm not your baby,

when I got a pick your drunk ass up

because you are too drunk to drive.

You can't get home.

I certainly wasn't your baby,

when you sat me down and gave me the,

you're the man of the house now speech.

You treat me like I'm grown.

If you say one more disrespectful ass thing

out of your mouth,

you will join your father sooner than you thought.

I just can't believe

that you all are playing in my face right now.

Please understand, Niecy I was weak.

It's been such a long time since anybody

gave me any kind of attention or touched me.

I was hung over and I wasn't thinking clearly Niecy,

I'm sorry, I was wrong.

I made a mistake, I know that.

And I understand how you must be feeling right now.

No, no, you can't understand how I'm feeling.

Your selfish could never understand how I'm feeling Savvy.

Because it's always an episode of the Savvy show.

Whatever Savvy wants Savvy gets.

It wasn't like you wasn't known to be a hoe back in the day.

Mom.

What?

It's true and I should know better than anyone.

Okay, that's the anger talking,

so I'm going to let that slide,

but you got one more time, told you I was sorry.

Mom, she's the closest person in the world to you.

You have to forgive her.

You, you better hope that I forgive your ass.

Savanna get out of my house.

What is she doing?

Where is she going?

I said, get the hell out.

Mom, this is crazy.

I told you, I told you to just save a life,

but your ass didn't listen.

So you going to pull Jody on me.

You really going to fuck my son?

Yeah, I did.

And he still got the taste of me on his lips.

Mama.

Niecy look at what you just did.

Fuck, this is not what I meant by save a life, shit.

now Kordell, it's all right.

It's okay, it's okay.

It's okay, mama's here.

Oh my God, shit.
