Original subtitles

- Somebody help!

Please help me!

Don't kill me.

(man gasping)

- Imari

It was just another nightmare.

- Yeah, but no beard this time.

- No that's my nightmare.

I love your beard.

I'll go get you some water.

- You stop cheating bro.

I'm telling you man. - Man I cheating man.

I just got skills.

- The game cheating too man,

or something.

And you know,

cause I remember having reoccurring nightmares

just like that

right after my detox.

Yep three years clean in May.

- Proud of you man.

- Definitely.

- Thanks man, thanks.

But the brother made it through,

through this squad.

- Yeah, no doubt.

- We always have your back.

- Yeah, I just can't believe my love for ectasy

led me to my side chick, Cocaine.

- Yeah, and eventually your marriage to crack.

- Yeah, but no addiction problems for you,

so what's up with these nightmares man?

- My therapies would say those nightmares,

answers to some unsolved pain in

either your relationship or career status.

It's making you feel like you're dying or not growing.

- Well, work is good.

The home front I've relocated to blah city.

- With the Adea.

At least she didn't let herself go after the marriage.

Candace told me she's here for life,

and now I got an extra 50 pounds

tagging along in my life sentence.

- Yeah but like she's still got body.

No one know it since she's always wearing the hoodie

and sweatpants.

- Those yoga pants do tell me a different story.

- Come on man, that's my wife you talking about man.

- Brother just making an observation that's all.

- Well, life with the Adae is boring.

It's the same 45 minutes of sex.

- Hell, I'll take 45 minutes of anything.

- Plus at home,

she always wears that raggedy granny house coat

and those tatted slippers

and she no longer does anything different with her hair.

It's the same old stupid ponytail,

and no make-up at all. - Whoa, wait a minute,

That's your fault.

- What?

- You're the one that told Adea that looks good

without the flash.

- Yeah I mean,

surprise a black man every once in a while.

Right right.

- You too just need to spice things up a bit.

Look marriage is hard work okay.

And it's real hard work if you married a Candace,

trust me Imari you got it easy with Adea.

Telling you, real easy,

now pick them sticks up man.

- Whatever sticks lets go.

- Come on man,

and don't be cheating this time.

- I ain't cheating, like I said I got skills man.

- Is it my controller?

- Yes bro.

- The Imari love show will not be televised.

- Woo.

- Yeah.

The doctor is in

and is ready to treat his patient.

- Ooh okay Dr. Much Love.

- Yes, yes, yes, yes.

- Right after my show,

do you know tonight's a season finale?

Listen I promise a hated doctor's appointment

from 11 to 11:45

And take this off.

If you break it that's nearly $200.

- And when that patient took off his shoes,

oh you knew you would have to demolish the entire hospital

just because of the odor.

Babe did you hear what I said?

- Huh?

Oh sorry, I was just wondering what that was over there.

- Oh yeah.

There were signs up last week saying that the park will be

closed due to some photo shoot.

Here we go Toby.

Here we go.

- Nice Phoebe.

Nice.

- Phoebe.

- Good job.

- Did you say something?

- Oh I just wonder what made them pick here.

- Oh yeah.

The sign said that the park will be closed

all next week too.

Probably another week of that stupid photo shoot.

Come on.

- Hey Phoebe.

Wow.

Phoebe.

Wow.

Hey hey.

What's up hon?

- You sound different.

What you doing?

- Nothing just

shopping and thinking about you.

- That's sweet.

- Yeah.

Sweet.

Come on lets go.

Wait.

Where is she?

Come on let's go.

Let's go.

- Yeah Phoebe.

Alright.

Show me a little bit of that fierceness you got.

Lets go.

- Gary, give me a couple minutes.

Hi,

I remember you from last week.

- You do.

- Well it's a small town

and you're worth remember.

I'm Phoebe.

- Toby behave.

- It's okay he knows I'm not much of a dog lover.

- I'm Imari it's really good to meet you Phoebe.

Did you just move here.

- Yeah and I can't seem to find a good restaurant.

- Oh, you should try JM Mission Burrito.

I go there all the time.

- Good to know.

So another question for you Imari.

Why the beard?

- You don't like it.

- Mm.

If you're into that kind of look,

I like a smooth face man.

A sweeter more innocent look.

- Stop Toby.

I'm sorry he usually doesn't act like this.

- I never got into any pets.

I hope that's not a deal breaker

of me getting to know you Mr. Imari.

- Oh no, the dog isn't.

- Phoebe,

Phoebe let's go.

We need to sunlight for our shots.

- If you're taken,

then why do I see something in your eyes,

that says so much more than friendship?

- Yeah I've been asking myself that same question.

- Get the answer to that question before you step to me.

Trust me I'm the main course.

No side dish, honey.

- Thank you for the gift.

- Dang,

man you look beautiful.

Now can I see more than this than that old granny robe?

- Babe you know I'm more about the comfort.

- Comfort,

now you know I'm supposed to be doing that.

At least been trying to.

Now you know we struggling

and you refuse to go to marriage counseling.

- Island folks don't go to counseling.

- Well, we need to go.

We got married young

and we're not the same people.

- I know we've changed and we've grown.

- Yeah, we've grown apart.

- My mom and dad went through the same thing

when they were young.

- And what did they do?

- They had their one on one therapy session.

- Like the sound of that.

- Oh Imari.

- Don't talk.

- Imari, your food's ready.

I don't want it to get cold for my hot man.

- Good morning Mr. Imari Jacobs.

I figured I'd better make sure you had a solid breakfast

because from last night escapade,

I know you worked up quite an appetite.

I lost count after three hours.

What happened?

Why'd you cut your beard.

- I needed a change.

- I loved your beard.

- I know,

but it started to get real itchy

and it was no longer the look I was going for so.

- I understand, you know this weekend

I'll be pulling a double at the hospital.

You shouldn't have worn me out,

but maybe you'll gimme the strength to keep going.

- You know I hate when you do those late night shifts.

- I know babe,

but we could use the money.

Maybe purchase that three bedroom house.

Start our family.

- I told you Adea,

I'm not feeling kids right now.

- But you know that's what I want.

Where's all this coming from.

- Once kids get into the picture,

it changes everything.

- Exactly,

I don't wanna be like one of those crazy women at the beach

who has Toby in a baby carriage.

- You're running late,

I know.

- Please get the dishwasher started for me.

I love you.

- Yeah.

I see you when I see you.

Like a little girl.

- Internationally.

Oh, Ooh.

Throwing a press today.

- But I wanna say you always pin like that,

but these skills getting worse.

- What's going on man.

- Aw man not a whole lot man.

Trying to get over this little cold.

I'm going to the doctor tomorrow though.

Oh, okay.

Nice shot. Nice shot.

Playing like Doltan man, damm.

- Yo where's he at anyway?

I thought he was supposed to meet us here?

- I don't know man.

He said something about his allergies messing up.

Check up man.

- Whatever.

- Stop starling man come on man.

- Whatever.

- Play the game.

Wow.

Another shot.

Maybe that beard was wearing you down man.

Or perhaps a grown man had a grown man's night last night.

- I mean maybe the girl of my dreams.

- Oh, I know you not talking about Adea

I know you not talking about Adea

- You right I ain't talking about Adea

but she was there thought.

- Whoa whoa,

I ain't know Adea was that kind of freak.

You gonna have to start inviting me to your

Friday night get togethers.

- Nah, nah, nah.

It was her but in my mind

and everything in me was thinking about

that model chick name Phoebe.

- Ah, you in the fantasy land man.

I do that all the time with Candace.

Hey but look,

just make sure you don't say the wrong name.

Promise that was a huge mistake.

- Yeah but I mean this felt so real,

like I really need to make this happen.

- Wait a minute,

so you mean to tell me Mr. Imari Jacobs,

Mr. Straight Narrow he's gonna step out on his wife.

- Nah look I'm for real man.

Look Adea and I got into an argument about having kids

and I realized I was saying no to the idea.

- Just go ahead and say it.

Just go ahead and say it.

- I don't know if I see your lifetime with Adea.

- Look, man.

I know I talk a lot of mess about Candace.

You know what I'm saying?

And yeah I might talk about stepping out on her

from time to time,

but I love her.

She takes care of me

and I promise you man the grass isn't always greener

on the other side bro.

- Yeah but it might not be greener,

but I bet it feels real.

- No, no listen to me Imari bro.

Listen, you starting to sound like me

when I was dealing with my depression, my addiction.

I was chasing after something that didn't exist.

You better watch your step.

- You know I hear that,

but I won't know if I stay stuck in what

I know it's killing me.

Ball up man.

Come on Imari,

snap out of, snap out of it.

So how do you like JM Mission Burrito?

- Like, I love it.

Thanks for telling me about this place.

And I love the new look Imari,

real nice to see you again.

Ow, you shocked me.

- I'm sorry I was dragging my feet to come over to you.

- Or maybe there's a spark between us.

Imari this is my photographer Gary.

- Imari nice to meet you man.

Care to join us.

- Yeah we'd love that

unless you're waiting on someone special Imari.

- No, I can join you all.

Thanks.

- Hi well I got the check.

So I'm gonna take off.

Tomorrow's call time is at 7:00 AM

and it's an hour drive on top of that.

Take care Imari,

you too Phoebe.

Pleasure as always,

see you in Australia next week.

- Reckon so mate.

Funny we keep running into each other.

- Yeah well this time.

Yeah.

Last time I was looking for you.

- Looking for me,

why?

- Your beauty grabbed my heart.

It has like a death grip on it.

- Wow poetic.

Does your wife hear that type of stuff all the time?

- Oh right now you're all I can think about.

I can't believe I can't said that out loud.

- Why do you regret saying it?

Because I don't regret hearing it.

- Tell me about you.

- You act like this is our first date.

- Maybe it is.

Plus I wanna get to know what's behind that beautiful face.

- Well, I'm a Midwest girl.

I always knew I wanted to model ever since I was four

and I'm a daddy's girl.

My daddy taught me never shrink back my love

for what I love, so I love hard.

- Really?

Well I'd love to see that.

- You already have,

I work like crazy but I love it.

As a result not much of a personal life.

- You're kidding me.

No husband, boyfriend, mini models running around.

- I was married once before,

but it didn't work out.

It's still hard for me to talk about.

and I don't have any children,

but you're funny mini models.

- I love your laugh.

How can you not have a man?

- I'm busy,

plus men don't understand how I love.

I'm all in

and I want someone who's all in it with me.

I'm sure your wife would say the same.

- Why do you keep bringing her her up?

- Because if you're still with her,

it's as if she's here with us.

- Well we've run apart,

for me it has.

- Does she know that?

- Somebody help,

please help me.

Don't kill me.

- You still having those nightmares?

You know granny used to tell me

that nightmares are warnings of what's coming in our life.

- Thanks.

Like I don't know how to say this,

but

I'm not happy.

- What are you talking about?

- It's the same old, same old.

And I'm only in my thirties.

Now it just scares me to have another five years like this

let alone 50.

- What are you telling me?

- I don't wanna keep doing this.

- Doing what?

Marriage.

You want a divorce?

- Look I want more.

And you keep ignoring me.

And you never wanna go out.

You used to get dressed up

and surprise me but now nothing.

And when I suggested counseling,

you acted like I cussed you out.

- We can walk this at ourselves.

I'll work less and make more time for us.

I know that's why you didn't wanna have children.

- That's not it.

- It is.

I know with more effort from the both of us,

we can get back to the way it was.

Let's do like my parents did it,

have weekly dates.

Yeah.

That's all we have to do.

No more cancellations from me.

Yeah.

This day night I get off of work at 6:30.

Let's meet at JM Mission Burritos around seven-ish.

I know we can get back on track.

I just know it.

- Fancy meeting you hear Mr. Imari Jacobs.

- Phoebe Rogers,

it's good seeing you too.

I thought this was a week you being Australia.

- The agency failed to meet my requirements.

So I had to cut that out my schedule.

Sometimes you have to let people know your worth.

Don't settle you know.

- I like that approach to life.

- What the hell's the matter with you?

- Look, I told you where I was at.

- You wanna walk away from us because of her.

- Do you really wanna know the answer to that question?

- Don't need to stay here if you wanna be somewhere else.

- I still care for you.

- Care.

I want a husband that not only cares about me,

but loves and adores me and wants to have a family with me.

Not settle for me.

- You're right.

I don't want you to settle for anything less.

I'm sorry.

- You can stay here as long as you like.

I don't have the kids this weekend.

And even then the boys can sleep in my room.

- Thanks, but I think I might get my own spot by next week.

Oh and my office works with the property management company

I've been doing their taxes for years

and they said that they'll give me a good deal

if I'm ever in the market for a downtown rental.

- What a minute I thought you and Adea

had to leave your argument.

Are you two really through.

- Look, Adea is sweet and all,

but Phoebe she excites me.

- The model girl.

- Yeah.

- Come on Mari.

- Look, she's into me in every man's dream.

You'll see

You are beautiful.

All right.

So if you weren't going to be a model,

what else would you wanna do?

- Hmm, I never had anyone ask me that.

I always knew that's what I'll do.

No backup plan for me.

Same thing when I find the right guy,

I'm in it for life.

How about you?

What do you do,

and if you had to do something else what would it be?

- I'm a Financial Advisor

and my side hustle is a Tax Preparer.

And if I wasn't doing one of those things,

then it would have to be something with numbers.

A math teacher.

Yeah I guess I'm predictable.

- You're Mr. Predictable all right.

Maybe I can bring some spontaneity into your life.

- How about we fly to Cancun after tax season

or Paris in the fall,

you ever been to either place?

- I've never been on an airplane,

I am afraid of Heights.

- Really?

- Yeah.

- Wow, I guess opposites do attract.

I love traveling a great perk with my career.

Never been on a plane.

- It was an experience when I was a kid,

went on the Ferris Wheel

and my fear was that it was gonna get stuck.

So I went on and guess what?

- Don't tell me it got stuck.

- What are the odds right?

- Well, I guess like could work for good too.

What are the odds,

I find the man of my dreams at a dog park

and I don't like dogs.

- Man of your dreams.

How did I get that title?

- Hmm. Let's see.

You're hard working, smart, kind

and handsome with a touch of innocence.

And I can tell you really do care for me.

- How do you know that without me even saying it.

- Because you look into my heart

and don't just stare at my breasts.

- Well, I've been practicing that for a while.

- Looks like it paid off.

- Oh, hi.

- Here's the rest of your stuff.

- Thanks.

And I grabbed your spare car key by mistake.

I'll have to remember to drop it off.

- You can put it in the mail.

- Oh, and I signed the lease to the new apartment

and they're dog friendly.

- Good, then you fit right in.

- I want Toby.

- You can't have Toby.

He's mine you bought him for me as a gift.

- No, he was a gift for our home.

Plus I picked him out

and you never take care of him.

- That's not true.

- Yeah you're never home with your work schedule.

The only attention that someone would get is if

I don't know, it was a medical emergency.

- You want Toby, then I'll see you in court.

- Wow, please Adea.

Toby is just as much as my dog as he is yours,

and you know it.

- I dunno what hurts most

that you will walk away for that crazy skunk

or that you'll fight more for Toby

than you would our marriage.

- I tried Adea.

- Whatever, I'll see you when I see you.

- Hey, I was just thinking about you Phoebe.

Oh really?

Yeah, come in Phoebe.

- Here I come,

here I come baby.

How about a kiss from Miss. Phoebe?

- Yo you don't look too good.

You alright?

- I kept telling him that.

- You two sound like Candace, I'm fine.

I just took an antibiotic for it.

Pass one of those waters Imari

Thank you.

- So what brings you two by.

- Is this guy for real?

It's been months since we talked to you.

- We exchanged text messages.

- Bro you don't even like texting.

Your new woman must have you on a tight leash.

- Oh see now you wish you had a woman like that,

who wanted you so close.

- Hit a brother hard with the truth why don't you?

- If you returned our calls and show up for the game,

we wouldn't sweat you so hard.

I could have sold you a ticket

if I knew you wouldn't show up.

- My bad.

You know Phoebe made plans,

but I mean there's nothing wrong with me.

It's all right now that I'm with Phoebe.

- Yeah, your a mystery lady.

- What about Adea.

- Probably marry too soon.

Trust me I'm happier with Phoebe.

- I heard my name.

- Ooh. Ooh.

My God look you that.

Oh God is giving away angels.

- Hi I'm Dalton.

You must be legendary Phoebe.

It's nice to finally meet you.

- Nice to meet you too Dalton.

So this must be Simeon.

- See, I didn't know why Imari was making such

a big fuss about you at first,

but now I'm starting to understand.

Extreme pleasure to meet you Miss Phoebe.

- Please just Phoebe.

The title Miss gives a hint of me being old.

It's bad enough I have to compete with

14 year olds for a modeling job.

- You don't have to worry about your age baby.

You are beautiful.

Oh, Hey.

How about we all go off for lunch?

- Oh I wanted to spend some time with you before

I head North from my photo shoot.

- We didn't mean to intrude.

We just wanted to check in on our boy.

- Well he's doing good and he's keeping me happy.

- Yeah glad to hear that.

Save travels Phoebe.

Imari look man just hit us up.

Yeah what you fellas has got in mind.

- Oh, don't forget you have to decide what y'all donate.

Gotta consolidate since we got our new place.

- Moving in together already.

You two have been dating for just a few months.

- That's what people do when they're in love.

No days on the calendar can dictate that.

- Well look Imari man.

Just hit us up whenever you get us some free time.

My man, man got a little nice little IG tender on it.

She got some body too.

- Finally you met my crew.

- Yeah, but not what I expected.

- What do you mean?

- Sometimes friends are for a reason and a season.

You met these guys when.

- Since Great School,

we're like brothers.

- Yeah, but you're all grown up

and you need grown up friends.

- My whole life Simeon and Dalton have been there for me

and vice versa.

I don't tell you who to talk to

or what to eat or what to wear.

- Don't hear it that way.

I just see you with different types of people that's all.

- Oh, what?

Like friends in your circle.

- Let's not fight.

I leave tomorrow and I wanna spend my time loving you

not fighting you.

Can we agree on that?

- Agreed.

- Come on, man.

Hit him, are you not gonna hit him?

- Ah, looks like I'm winning this one.

- Not as much as winning with that beautiful woman,

dude that feels like toy prep.

- Yeah no doubt.

I mean much better than Adea.

Can you believe that she wanted to sue me for Toby?

- Yeah the woman is upset.

She's hurt, it's payback time.

- Well at least I got her to agree

on switching days with Toby.

We see how long that lasts.

- I still can believe you walk away from Adea.

- Look she was good and kind to me,

but I loved her and stale.

- I bet you don't have that with Miss,

excuse me with Phoebe.

She let us know in very little word

she ain't feeling us.

- Oh yeah, I can tell when I get on a woman's last nerve.

Okay what did she say once we left?

- Yo, she ain't give y'all chance,

but she'll come around.

- We'll see.

- Did I miss the party?

- Hey babe.

No, just catching up with the fellas.

Watching some Sunday Night Football.

- Glad to see you again Phoebe.

How was your trip?

- I got fired.

- Why did he fire you?

- Because I don't like people in my business.

Sorry I snapped.

Imari I really have a migraine so I'll need

some peace and quiet.

- No problem.

Just go lay down and I'll give you some tea.

- That'll be wonderful baby.

And my phone's dead so Gary might call you.

Just tell him I got his message

and I'll meet him at Chamber Studio at noon

for our photo session.

- Okay.

- Chambers building.

I used to work there back in the day

before revamp the whole thing.

- Yeah, Gary rents the space there.

Well I hope you gentlemen have a good evening.

- All right Simeon second half at my house.

- Cool I'll bring refreshments.

Imari you got like a bag or something

I can put this stuff in.

- Wait, wait, hold on.

Where y'all going,

y'all ain't gotta leave.

- Bruh, you didn't see that woman stink eye.

You know what it kind of reminded me of this one time

I told Candice we need to get all these extra pillows

out of the bed.

So I reached back trying to grab one of the pillows.

I end up grabbing her stomach.

Only thing that got thrown out the bed that night was me.

- No see that right there just shows that Phoebe ain't

nothing like Candace.

- Seriously Imari you blind him by her beauty brother.

He's an undercover mini manipulative creature.

She subtle but I said,

hell Toby even sees it.

- No see you're just getting her confused

with your ex Sheila.

- I know what I'm looking at because of Sheila.

Trust me I know what I'm talking about.

Okay you better get those blinders off quick.

It will get worse the longer you stay in it.

- See neither one of you know what you're talking about.

- You'll see.

- You'll see.

- Toby.

- Peace out Toby.

- Good luck Toby.

- Oh, looks like you'll be receiving double

on your return this year.

- What the hell's the matter with you?

You sent me to divorce papers at my job.

- I'm sorry, but my next appointment just dropped by.

Yeah, but if you agree to the return,

just sign the papers and send them back to me.

Okay.

I'm glad I can help.

All right, bye

My attorney said that I needed to make sure you

got the documents hand delivered.

You were never at home and God knows you're always at work.

- Do you love her?

- I think at first sight.

- You're lusting her not loving her.

- It's more than I have with you.

- Fine.

You got your divorce, but I want Toby.

- You don't care about the dog.

- That's my dog.

I'm not fighting you on anything else, but I want him.

- You two don't have any children,

so why do you need to interact with her?

- Toby is as much as her dog as he is mine.

- Then let her have the damm dog.

- I want to keep Toby

and we'll continue to alternate weeks.

- Alternate weeks.

You don't know the type of games women play Imari

and this woman is running games on you

and I won't stand for it.

- Hey, what's the matter with you.

- Me, nothing's wrong with me,

you trying to use that stupid dog to keep your husband.

- Trust me you have his selfish ass.

If he gives me Toby,

neither you nor him will ever see me again.

- All right you'll get your dog

just stay away from Imari

or you'll know what it feels like to be

on the bottom of my shoe.

- You see it too don't you Toby?

Not just pretty, but pretty evil.

My BFF the internet will give me the skinny

on this crazy chicka.

Oh.

- Sorry I'm late.

- Yeah supermodels will make their demands.

- Don't be jealous.

- I'm never jealous of psychotic chicks.

- What are you talking about?

- You know Phoebe was married before.

- Yeah I was married before too.

That's in the past.

- He's dead from a horrible fire

and it may be more than one husband or even boyfriends.

Look, I saw some pictures online.

- Just stop with the I spy.

- Look Phoebe mentioned her marriage

and she'll tell me more when she's ready.

- Wake up Imari.

You might be with a serial killer.

- What proof do you have?

Plus look at her.

I mean does she look like a serial killer?

I know that you didn't want our marriage to end,

but we just grew apart.

- Toby, Toby.

- Hey what's taking you so long.

- I can't find Toby I let him loose back here.

- He's probably in heat like me.

- He never strays away from home.

Plus he couldn't have got out on his own

and you know that our neighbors can't stand his barking.

- Look I'm sure he'll show up.

He could be out here all night and it's getting cold.

Come back to bed.

- All right.

Toby,

Toby.

- I swear you love that dog more than at me.

- Come on Phoebe be for real.

- The problem isn't me.

I had a tough day and all I want is for my man to hold me.

This is why I had to cut E from outta my life.

- Was that your husband?

- Yes.

- What happened to him?

- He was murdered.

- Who murdered him?

- We never found out, carjacking.

I told him, stay out of those shady neighborhoods.

Can we just go to bed please?

- Okay, sorry babe.

- Why do you love that dog so much?

- My first dog Denver got ran over by a car

and I never wanted to experience anything like that again.

You know what,

Toby he's a smart boy.

Lets go look for him in the morning.

Come on let's go.

- What do you mean you can't find Toby?

- My new place has a private backyard,

I just let him roam.

- You didn't have him chained up.

- Look it's secure back there,

I don't have to have him on a leash.

- You better find my Toby,

you probably did this on purpose.

- That makes no sense Adea.

- Well if you didn't do it, then Phoebe did.

She told me I'll get my dog.

- Wait when?

- She came to the dog park.

Trust me your little Miss perfect,

is pure bread psycho.

She probably did something to Toby like her ex-husband.

- Her ex-husband died in a carjack.

- Her other husband.

Imari you better find out what happened to Toby

and the men that got into Phoebe's web.

- Toby.

I heard Coyote's going to hunt for small dogs and babies.

- Mental notes,

never have you read me a bedtime story Simeon.

- You know Phoebe's no fan of Toby.

- Yeah I know,

Adea blamed her too.

Phoebe doesn't hate dogs that much.

- What?

Every time Phoebe comes around,

Toby starts barking and grouting.

- Yo, it ain't that bad.

- Yes it is.

Come out there pool of love man.

Can't you see you're drowning.

- Look I do realize I really don't know Phoebe,

but I mean she did mention her ex-husband's name

and I never heard speak about the ex dudes that she's dated.

I tell my sisters all the time.

You gotta investigate before you date.

- Man don't follow those rules.

- Right she's got a Coke bottle shape, drink up.

- That one no doubt.

All right, come on looks like we need to hang up some flyer

and dinners on me once we get 'em all hung up alright.

- Toby

- Hey Phoebe is Toby back?

- What'd she say?

- Come on man we gotta go.

Come on lets go.

Where is he?

- When he came to the door he was limping

and all the blood.

- Car must have hit him.

I'm sorry Imari.

- Imari I'll call Adea and let her know man.

- Why do you need to call her?

He's dead what's she gonna do plan his funeral?

Are we about done here?

Don't forget I need to be downtown in about an hour.

- You can go.

- And you can go,

me and Imari live here not you.

- Stop y'all please.

- I can't look at this.

I'll talk to y'all later.

- Later.

No I don't think so.

There's nothing keeping you too connected anymore.

I told you she was running game Imari.

- Calm down Phoebe.

- Don't mess with me today okay

You got everybody half fooled

but you gonna trail of mess behind you.

- What are you talking about?

- She's just talking out the side of her neck.

- Yeah. Okay.

Imari you better check the tire prints on Toby

and make sure they don't match the thick chick's

sports ride out front.

- Come to bed sweetie.

- I need to find my shirt.

- You really don't.

I'm sorry about your man's best friend.

- Yeah me too.

- So much bottled up.

You safe with me.

Tell me what it was like when you were a kid.

- Well, I was an awkward kid

and I know you don't like pets,

but animals were always kind to me.

They didn't care if I had bad breath,

out of date clothes,

or busted up sneaks.

My moms worked two jobs so I rarely saw her

and my brothers would find any reason to beat me up.

So that I left me and Denver.

- My mom wasn't in the picture.

I always had my daddy.

I really just think she couldn't handle my dad's loving

attention so she didn't stick around.

- Did you ever try to find her.

- What for,

my daddy gave me everything I wanted or needed

until he died five years ago.

- I'm sorry Phoebe.

- Yeah it's still hard.

He was a good man and the ladies loved him too.

I actually had lots of mothers look after me.

My daddy love you till it hurts.

I think that's how me and him are alike.

- Well I hated my father,

he was abusive to my mother

and I think those repeated violent blows even caused

her fatal aneurysm 10 years ago.

You know,

I promised to never lay a hand on a woman

and do whatever I can to protect the one that I love.

- So do you love me Imari Jacobs.

- I want to marry you and care for you Phoebe.

- I love you so much.

I would love to be your wife.

- I was just telling the fellas

that I fallen head over heels over this woman

and I don't even know her.

- I still don't understand how they're your friends.

- I told you they good dudes.

I mean Simeon he's been through a lot,

but I'm proud of him now.

You know battling drug addiction a few years back,

he's clean now.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah he's not on a pipe anymore.

- He's always taking some pills.

- Oh no those are just antibiotics,

he's been fighting a cold so.

- How long does someone fight a cold?

I'm just saying.

- Didn't see it or didn't wanna see it.

- What about other friend?

- Dalton was the kid that was always in

and out outta the hospitals due to allergies

and oversized heart.

And he still needs to be careful of getting overstressed.

- Your friends sure do seem to require a lot of work.

- My friends are my friends

and you need to make room for 'em

because they're my boys.

- It is actually the both of us.

We need to make room.

- No.

Is this for real?

Damm you Imari.

- Congratulations bro.

- Thank you.

- Congrats, man. - Thank you.

- But I don't get it.

You're didn't want to have children with Adea,

but here comes brand new Phoebe popping up pregnant.

- Oh my marriage with Adea was dying,

now who wants to bring a baby in that.

Now my future is with Phoebe and so as a family.

- You two know what you're having yet.

- It's too soon to tell,

but it'll be a stroke if Phoebe doesn't let me breathe.

And now we gotta get the baby's bedroom ready by painting

and putting a wallpaper.

- Painting and wallpaper.

Why could anyone want both.

- That's exactly what I said.

End up on the couch after that.

- You better get used to it.

I sleep on the couch all the time.

In fact I haven't seen the inside of my bedroom

since my anniversary,

last year's anniversary.

- Is that why we don't see you?

No lunch, no calls no nothing.

- Phoebe started coming down to the office

on my lunch break.

- Knowing her, knowing her,

I'm pretty sure she pared pretty bump her out there,

the rest of the day.

- No, no, no, no, no.

See the trip would tire her and the baby out.

- Sounds like you got yourself a new guard dog.

- Like for real bro.

Do you feel like you have that excitement

and freedom you were missing with Adea?

- I guess a rough lash now,

but this is just temporary.

I mean Phoebe's pregnant now and hormonal.

- Hormonal.

No she's beyond hormonal she's clingy.

- look at her I get cluster phobic,

like I can't breathe.

- No, no.

I'm happy with her now man.

And I plan on marrying her after the baby's born.

Now she says she doesn't want to have any signs

of baby weight in the wedding pictures.

- Do do you find out the due date yet?

- Gotta ask her Phoebe she's different.

Normally you can't get a woman to shut up off

that type of stuff right.

I gotta pride out of her.

Who knows?

Maybe her mystery is what attracts me to her.

- Spooky.

- Yeah.

Cling, cling to that. Yeah.

Hey Phoebe.

- Why are you yelling just know when the baby comes,

there's gonna be some changes around here.

- Well, that's just it.

I don't know the due date of the baby.

When is it?

- December 23rd, right before Christmas.

- All right, cool.

- I mean, when really know the sex of the baby,

I can actually take off work

for the next doctor's appointment.

- Are you serious?

My daddy always said that was more womanly stuff.

He was in the waiting room until the very end.

He didn't even see me until I was fully clothed.

- Well, that's not me.

My dad wasn't in my life or my brother's life.

I'm gonna be completely involved in my child's life.

From the very beginning.

Do you at least have a picture of the sonogram.

- Why can't you be more like my daddy

and what's with all the questions

it's like you don't trust me.

- I'm not saying that at all.

I just wanna be a part of you in a baby's life.

- Just relax.

You see I know that's coming from hanging out with Dalton.

His nervous ticks are affecting him.

- It has nothing to do with him.

- Whatever Imari,

I know you better than you know yourself.

- Imari,

Imari.

- What's going on.

- The baby it's gone.

I know it's gone.

- What made you grow a beard.

- Something new, something different.

I'm not into it, I plan on cutting it.

- You getting beard envy.

- It doesn't matter.

Phoebe didn't want on it,

but she wanted that baby.

- I'm sorry Imari.

- How's Phoebe doing.

- Upset of course.

But I try letting her know that we

don't have to cancel the wedding now.

- Wedding,

why rush in they eventually leave you anyway.

- What's going on Simeon.

- Candace man,

Candace left me a couple days ago.

I guess I should have seen it coming right.

- I'm sorry man.

You aight?

- You know with marriage,

you know you just plan it for life.

But after a couple years in

and you just,

you just hoping you make it out alive you know.

- You'll get through this,

eventually divorcing Sheila was the best for both of us

and our boys.

- Honestly, I never even imagined Candace would leave.

I clowned our relationship for years,

but now I really do miss her.

- You been going to your NA meetings?

- Nah, no need to.

I don't have a taste for it.

- Are you sure?

- Why you asking me that man?

I just said, I'm fine,

I'm not an addict.

- So what's with the pills.

- I told you they're my vitamins.

- You said antibiotics.

- Hey, calm down Simeon.

We just want you to know we have your back.

- Well right now I just need you to back up.

- He's using again.

- Just couple pills.

At least he's not cracked out.

- Look, I don't want him stressing over

losing Candace in us searching for him by the river again.

- Hmm. Well,

I feel the same about you and Phoebe,

seems stressful to plan a wedding after a miscarriage,

Is she up to it mentally plus what the doctor say?

- Phoebe said she was fine.

- She didn't go to the hospital.

I go to the doctors,

even when I don't have to go to the doctors.

You said there was a lot of blood.

- Look, I don't wanna pressure her

and get it all worked up,

but you're right.

I'll talk to her again.

All right.

- All my life I didn't know if I could be a wife or a mother

since my mom didn't stick her out.

- It was my chance and now my baby's gone.

- It's gonna be okay.

Plus we can always try again.

- Here, babe.

And here's your spare car key.

I know someone who can create a magnetic box

and you can keep it there in case of an emergency.

- Thanks, wait this is Adea car key,

I keep forgetting to put it in the mail sorry.

- Oh, I'll put it back then.

- Are you feeling any better?

- This doesn't just go away you know,

but at least my work will take my mind off of it.

- Well, that's good right.

I mean, but don't do too much.

I'm concerned about you,

you should go to the doctor.

- I'll be fine.

- Everyone that I know who had miscarriages,

they consulted with the doctor

and we do want children in the future.

So let's just make sure no internal injuries

will hinder that.

That's all I'm saying.

- Okay, I'll do it.

I can hear that you really do care for me.

- I do.

- Save that I do for our wedding ceremony.

- Yeah, man.

Come on man be up.

It's gonna be real quick.

You gonna need your inhaler after I'm done with you.

- All right that's game.

- Thanks for letting me win.

- That's a sacrifice as we make for our friends.

- Oh man.

Good game man good game.

You know why Adea wanted to meet us out here?

- No clue.

How you doing, hear form Candace yet?

- Nah, she's through with me man.

You can't say I don't blame her.

- Think about using.

- Every day, but I don't.

- So what's with the pills?

- Just think of them as muscle relaxers

and as you can see I do need a relax.

Oh, there goes Adea right there.

- Sounds like you need your meetings.

I'll go with you if you like.

- You sure didn't waste any time trying to

make a move on me,

but sure just make sure you take me to dinner first.

What's up Adea

How you doing?

- Hi Simeon, Dalton.

- You looking good so you must be.

- Still a hot mess I see.

- You know it.

So what's up.

- Look, I saw on social media,

I thought of congrats with the baby on the way.

Bastard.

He didn't wanna have children with me,

but he's silly happy with miss brand new,

posting pictures of picking out wallpaper and paint.

- Well, they lost their baby,

But now they're still planning a wedding.

- I figured as much and why I wanted to meet.

I don't trust her.

I couldn't find much about her on her pages,

but people still connected to her

have post up about her previous relationships.

I tried to warn Imari

but he's like a cartoon character

with hearts in his eyes.

Looks like girls cuckoo by any guy

she can get her claws into.

- Ooh.

It says right here to her last husband Terrance

died in a fire.

- Makes her a widow.

- A Black Widow.

It looks like that's her second marriage.

- Second.

- And another dead husband.

- With Imari that makes three.

- I need more from you today Phoebe.

You become domesticated.

Show me that wild cat.

Okay. Yeah.

See now that's the woman I wanna love

and fear all at the same time.

Little more, more, more.

Show me more,

come on Phoebe.

- Hey Gary, let's take 10.

- Phoebe we don't have time to slow down.

You know you missed two weeks of work duty

happily ever after.

- If you didn't fuss,

I could have been back for my 10 minute break by now.

- Take an extra 10 and change your wardrobe.

- When I mentioned where Gary's studio was at

that wasn't an invitation.

Your boy know you're visiting his fiance.

- No, because he doesn't know about your secrets.

- Everyone has secrets Simeon.

- Dead ex-husbands and ex-boyfriends secrets.

No, I don't think so.

- None of that's a secret.

Hell if you found out about it,

Imari can find out about it too.

He knows some of it.

Plus the past is the past.

That's how our relationship works.

I have to get back to work.

You're doing all this investigation on my

relationship.

Where's your relationship with your wife?

Oops that's right she left you.

- That's none of your business.

- Really?

You saying this to me right now.

You're pretty good at living a lie yourself.

- What are you talking about?

- Are you gonna let Imari know,

he can stop being proud of you for staying drug free,

boy your sobriety crumble the minute

you got addicted to painkillers.

So all this work trying to get into my business,

work on your own deformed life.

- I know you were never pregnant.

- You don't wanna play my game young man.

Men never went against me.

That's my last and final warning to you

pass that along to Mr. High Anxiety too.

I'm really torn between these wedding invitations.

Plus don't forget to keep this weekend open.

We have to check out a few locations

for our wedding reception.

- I really don't care.

Translation I just wanna marry you okay.

Both our parents are deceased

and the only people that need to be there

is me you and the minister.

- I really have to tell you something.

I'd rather hear it from me than anyone else.

- You already talk about your ex-husbands.

- I asked Simeon to let me tell you.

- Simeon no Adea told me.

When did you talk to Simeon?

- He came to Gary's studio

and he was a acting all loud and ghetto.

I thought we would have to call security on him.

He still has an addiction Imari.

- Yeah sounds like it.

- So you knew.

- Somewhat, but I would rather you tell me.

- My first marriage,

I was young and I thought I was in love.

Then my second marriage was right after my dad died

and I was looking for someone to fill that void.

It worked for a little while,

but the honeymoon period ended fast.

- Who died in the fire?

- My first husband, Terrence,

but we were separated when that happened

And Ephraim was wealthy

and I told you about the carjacking,

Probably karma coming back on him

since he was violent towards me most of our marriage.

After that I just thought I was cursed

when it came to relationships.

- You're not a curse.

We got each other now.

- Oh, marriages are just horrible memories.

I try to put it out my mind, but I just can't.

- I'm sorry that all that happened to you.

But from here on out,

I'm gonna show you how queen is supposed to be treated.

You believe me?

- Yeah, because you grabbed a hold of my heart.

- And I ain't never letting go.

- How did I get someone as great as you?

- What the hell are you doing in my car?

- No need for of that tone young lady.

- Oh, you think I'm a kid?

Try this.

- What's wrong with you.

- Right now it's you?

Whatever you think Imari needs to know.

Keep it to yourself.

Safety first plus I was kind enough

to drop off your spare key.

- Yeah I'm gonna need a tow

I don't know if it'll start.

Why don't you come here and try it out.

- I can't believe she was in my car.

- Adea calm down.

- I should have called the police.

- You don't have to call the police.

Look I didn't know that she was gonna pull that.

Trust me Phoebe doesn't own a gun.

- I saw it.

- I'm sorry.

- You did this.

- If anything blame me.

- Damm right I blame you.

- You know, Phoebe went to see Adea.

- Yeah I just got off the phone with her.

Look I had Adea spare key

and Phoebe took it.

I'll put her in check with doing that,

she was dead wrong.

- That lightweight hefer was in Adea's car

and she threatened her.

Did you even know Phoebe owns the gun?

- Look Phoebe doesn't like me watching anything violent,

let alone own a gun.

Plus Adea is good at imagining things,

if anything Phoebe's just playing games.

- The only one being played here it's you man.

Come down from that love high.

- Look trust me Phoebes just flexing muscles on Adea.

Just acting you know a little crazy.

- That ain't an act bro.

- Come on now.

You know we like a woman just a little crazy.

- Imari you have a full fledged nutjob on your hands bruh.

- Yeah all right, Phoebe was wrong.

What's this really about huh?

I'm with a woman that makes me happy.

And you two are sleeping in wet sheets.

- What's come over you man.

- Oh, I know what's come over him,

her name is Phoebe.

Yeah see, this is an intervention

and your drug of choice is Phoebe.

- Oh yeah and you would know right.

- Get your hand out my pocket.

- Were you ever clean?

Start with the pills back to the pipe

and back to the pills again.

It's still addiction Simeon.

And Phoebe told me how you went to a job

and tore up the place.

- What?

- Yeah.

- Simeon really?

- No, no, no, no, no she's lying.

I went there to confront her about her past marriages.

- Okay well, if you wanna confront anybody,

be a man and get in my face.

- I'm here right now what's up.

- Okay, come down you all.

Hey hey.

- You need to use that strip

and get away from your neurotic beauty.

- Hey, stop.

- Get off me man get off me.

- We're supposed to be brothers.

Don't throw that away because of a woman.

- Only one being thrown out his yall.

Get out.

- Outta here man.

- The door is behind you.

- Hey baby grab a seat.

That model reality show is on.

They need to quit I'm better than any of 'em.

Oh my God did you get attacked?

I told you not to park in the alleyway anymore.

- No Dalton and Simeon came to the office.

Now you started something by getting into Adea's car.

Now, why did you do that Phoebe?

- I'm sorry that was foolish of me.

I was just being jealous and spiteful.

I didn't mean any harm.

What that have to do with your friends?

- Well let's just say they're not your biggest fan.

- Feelings mutual straight up thugs.

You need to stop hanging with them.

I got a glimpse of Simeon's crazy

when he came to Gary's studio,

he grabbed my butt.

- Whoa he did what?

- I didn't wanna tell you since he's your friend.

- I need to redefine friendship.

- Here have a seat.

Let me grab you some ice for that eye.

- What did the doctor say?

- Doctor?

- Don't tell me you forgot about your doctor's appointment.

- Oh, that.

- Thank you.

- It was like I said all as well,

wasted money and time.

Three hours in the waiting room

and 20 minutes in a thin gown for Dr. Younger

to tell me what I already knew.

- Yeah, better safe than sorry.

- That's what I keep telling you,

but you don't listen.

Maybe now you'll see those guys

aren't right for you anymore.

- Yeah.

- Hey no no no no, wait wait.

- The funeral is nice.

- I always hated when people say stuff like that.

A nice funeral.

It's a Oxymoron.

Did you happen to notice Dalton's kids?

They just couldn't stop crying.

- Well you Dalton, he wouldn't want us angry or sad.

I can't believe it.

- This guy.

- Imari what are you doing?

- Yo can we squash this fight man?

- You need to ask Phoebe where she was

during Dalton's hit and run.

- I didn't do it.

- Look, I'm trying to make a truce with you

and you blame me Phoebe for Dalton's death.

- All those drugs are making you delusional.

- I wasn't delusional when you were sitting in my car

and that gun you had.

Should have called the police on you half crazed ass.

- Look Phoebe didn't hurt anyone

and she doesn't own a gun.

- She didn't see me with a gun.

Look, I really am sorry.

I was just being childish so just lighten up Adea.

- Whoa, whoa no no Adea.

Nah, nah.

Don't be like her,

no, don't stoop to her level.

Don't be like her.

- I swear to God.

Your hatred for others will kill you one day.

- Please you just mad you lost your husband,

trying to save the world.

Just know that'll be the death of you.

- At least I'll die with honor.

- Stop Okay.

Now Dalton he was a peacemaker

and he wouldn't want none of this.

- And I didn't kill him,

Gary and I was working that night.

Plus they said a beige SUV left the scene.

Trust me, I don't own anything beige.

And a man was reported driving the car.

And why would I hurt Dalton.

- The same reason you hurt your other husbands

because you think you can get away with it.

- No look this is the last time you

gonna disrespect Phoebe.

- What's up here.

Square up.

- Come on Phoebe.

You know, I was gonna put everything behind us,

but with you sneaking around

and going to Phoebe's job, groping her.

- What?

- Imari, she is a liar man.

- And a murderer.

Her two husbands died mysteriously and boyfriends.

You want to be next?

- I didn't believe women were so desperate to get a man,

but look at you exhibit A.

me and my man ain't got time for this.

- Can't believe this sucker man.

- Hey Phoebe your phone.

Hello?

Oh hi Dr. Younger.

Yeah I'm so glad you called.

Yeah this is Imari Jacobs.

Phoebe's fiance.

Yeah like I know she had her appointment with you

regarding the loss of the baby,

but she acted like there was no problem at all,

is that true?

Hello, Dr. Younger.

Are you still there?

Oh, okay.

Yeah. Yeah.

Look like,

I know you can't disclose information about you know

stuff, but when I said appointment

and baby you acted like you didn't know

what I was talking about.

So what's the real reason why you called then?

Yes, you can say that.

Just say it.

- Is that Gary tell him I need another 10 minutes.

- No, that wasn't Gary.

That was Dr. Younger reminding you

of your annual appointment.

You see her assistant is on medical leave,

and so her time is very limited with doing two jobs

right now.

So she recommends you not to counsel this time.

If you want to get in this year.

- Dr. To young sees lots of patience,

I'm sure she forgot.

- You know see, I really wanna get this math problem right.

So no appointment last month minus no miscarriage,

that just equals up to you not even being pregnant.

- I thought I was Imari.

Please you gotta believe me.

- So what about the blood that I saw?

Is there something wrong with you?

- Yes I just love you and I don't wanna lose you.

- Well, I really did have my blinders on.

- Imari Please, please, please.

You just can't leave,

I'm just wired to love hard and hold on tight.

That's really my only fault just that

and that I love you so much

and nothing should come between us.

Don't you feel the same way?

- No I'm outta here man.

- No no you just can't leave.

- Get off of me.

Stop.

- Terrence,

Ephraim,

Vladimir and Douglas.

They left me.

Well they tried leaving me.

Not you Imari.

No one else gets to walk outta on me.

As I said, I'm in it for life.

- I can't help you.

You need professional help.

- So you want to put in a restraining order against a

woman.

- Yeah,

- I guess they make men indifferent nowadays.

All right now fill out this form.

Just curious you wouldn't happen to have a photo

of little miss psychopath

Boy stop wasting tax payers money.

I wish I had a woman this pretty,

that wanted to do harm to me.

She be waking my dead bones.

Hey fellas come and take a look at.

- Officer Mitchell.

- She is unstable

and I want to submit a restraining order okay.

Now I didn't come here to file a complaint on an Officer,

but I'll do it if I have to.

- I can't process this correctly,

if there's any missing information on here sir.

- Here you go, man.

- Thanks for the clothes and the place to stay tonight.

- Thank me by not going back.

Can't keep playing around with Miss Looney Toons man.

Many of your brother have died thinking

they can outsmart these women.

I'm telling you she has something

to do with Dalton's death.

- What proof do you have

and what would be your motive?

- Having you alter herself is her motive.

Look man, face you're in an abusive relationship.

- Not anymore.

- Man this car going off all day.

I'll be back.

Hell are you doing here?

I'm not Adea,

I'll knock your ass out then call the police on you.

I done told you Imari doesn't want you.

- Good I didn't come here for him.

I came to see you.

- What you, what you, oh my God.

No wonder why he's so stupid.

Yeah.

Simeon

Simeon

- How did it happen?

Hey.

- Oh my God Imari

You need some rest.

- I know.

Did you get my message about Simeon?

- I can't believe it.

- Yesterday morning I found him.

I was messed up all day

and I had to call Candace and his family.

- What happened?

- Painkillers had the best of them.

- Oh, Simeon.

- Look, I'm glad you stopped by,

just like I said in my message.

I broke it off with Phoebe.

- You got a restraining order.

- Yeah but they saw her a picture and they laughed at me.

- Too pretty to how to hurt a fly.

- Yeah.

- You better make sure that paperwork is filed Imari.

- I did,

humiliating, but I did.

- You may need to wake up

once you peel back that layer of pretty,

you might see the devil himself.

Oh, I'm late.

I should have been at my shift a half hour ago.

- Thank you so much for checking in on me.

You've always been there for me Adea.

- Just who I am.

You know my name.

- A gift from God yeah, I know

You don't appreciate the gift until it's gone.

- Don't stay out till late Imari,

you look completely drained.

- Somebody help please.

- Mom, get up.

- How long has she been unconscious?

- Just about now.

- Time to die with honor.

- Hey Adea

No, I thought you'd still be on your shift.

- Adea didn't make it to work today.

Just us girls hanging out all day.

You know, you need some fun Imari,

all work and no play

makes Imari dead and dull like Adea.

- What did you do?

Where are you?

- All right I like that.

My man wants to see me.

You always know how to make me feel special.

- Where are you Phoebe.

- At Gary's studio.

- Hey Officer Mitchell.

Yeah, I think my wife

ex-wife Adea Jacobs

has been murdered by Phoebe Rogers.

Yeah.

Yeah. Meet me at this address.

Did you get it?

Okay.

Yeah I see you there,

right bye.

- Man I knew I should have got my gun permit.

Adea

- I was never one for goodbyes.

- Yo he's heaver than he looks.

Why I bring him up here?

- I'm all about helping Gary.

Terence was always afraid he would die in a fire.

Ephraim was easy he always thought somebody would rob

and kill him.

Vladimir was afraid of water.

And Douglas was always getting in car accidents

and thought he would eventually die in a car crash.

- So this guy must be afraid of heights.

- You got it.

Imari refused to take a trip with me.

So I'm gonna take him on one.

- You know you're worse than dad Phoebe.

- No I'm better than dad.

Daddy always said.

- Love hard or don't love it all.

- That's right.

Each one of our moms he loved to death.

When dad died five years ago.

That's when I vowed to love like daddy,

but I found out so many people make it hard

for you to love them.

- But I can't keep coming to your rescue.

You know those detectives,

they almost had me connected to Ephraim.

- But no motive, no fingerprints.

And I was your alibi.

We were sloppy in the beginning,

but now we're almost as good as daddy was.

- You don't have to be like dad.

- Man up Gary.

You always whining like when we were kids,

daddy couldn't stand that about you.

Oh my flying prince has awaken.

- Damm you Phoebe.

What do you want from me?

- I just wanted you to love me and me only.

I loved you and nothing else mattered.

Even my modeling.

They knew it and that's how I got fired,

but I didn't care.

You refused to make me priority.

You wanted to keep me

and you wanted to keep your boys, Adea

and that stupid yelping dog.

Tie him up Gary.

- You tie him up.

I'm done with your sick twisted fantasy.

Dad needed help and so do you.

- We're family,

never turn you're back on family.

Gary I need your help so do as I say.

- I stopped taking orders from him.

And now I stop taking orders from you.

- As I say, never turn your back on family.

Now I have to clean that up.

- You didn't have to kill Adea

It was over between us.

- Adea, you know,

another time and place she could have been my friend.

She was a smart plain all gal.

I'm so happy you didn't take her advice.

You would've found out I was the cause of

Toby's early departure.

- You.

- Your innocence is so attractive to me.

Your friends weren't so innocent though.

One reason I helped Dalton take out the trash.

- That hit and run.

- I don't know about that.

I hit him, but he didn't run.

I thought you liked my corny jokes.

Dalton always took his trash out Thursday at 9:00 PM.

He's such a creature of habit.

And your other friend Simeon.

- What about Simeon.

- I just loved our pillow talk, honey.

You shared with me so much about your family and friends.

I remember everything that has value to me.

For example, Simeon's addiction.

Drugs do kill.

- It was you.

You did all of it.

- Oh God.

Oh God.

Help help please.

Don't kill me.

- Now you just like the rest.

I'll tell your remaining friends

and family that Adea came here

and out of her jealousy towards me she took her own life.

You found her,

you couldn't handle our breakup plus your friend's death.

You were just a ticking time bomb waiting to explode.

I have your suicide note already written up.

Get Off of me.

- That is a cute dog.

- Thank you I just got her.

- I'm Sasha.

- Nice to meet you I'm Imari

- You shocked me,

maybe there's a spark between us.

- Or maybe here's a spark between us.

- Yeah, I gotta go.

I've had my fair share of crazy love.

It was nice meeting you Sasha.

You have a good life.

Cause I know I may have one.

- Some people make it hard to love them.

Ain't that right Phoebe.
