00:06:13Stop being so damn loyal
00:06:16Tasha I'm not like you
00:06:18Oh I know
00:06:19And that's the problem
00:06:22You think being invisible is the same thing as being safe
00:06:26Uh uh
00:06:29Let me tell you something
00:06:30When a man doesn't see you
00:06:32That's when he does the most dirt
00:06:36Well
00:06:37When I leave here today
00:06:38I'm getting my hair done
00:06:40Oh

00:06:54With your head on fire
00:06:56And he still would not look up from his phone
00:06:59I'm sorry cousin
00:07:01But if you think
00:07:02That a flat iron is going to fix
00:07:04What's broken in your marriage
00:07:07It's already over sweetie
00:07:09Mm
00:07:10Mm
00:07:11Mm
00:07:13So you give everything to a man
00:07:15Who sees you as furniture
00:07:17I would never understand

00:07:45Head is killing me
00:07:48It's over there in the drawer
00:07:49Where it always is
00:08:03Long day?
00:08:06Just handling some things
00:08:10I was thinking about ordering some takeout
00:08:14We can try that new tie spot
00:08:16What the hell did you do to your hair?
00:08:18I
00:08:20I just got it done
00:08:22Thought I'd try something different
00:08:34So who you trying to look like now?
00:08:36Your cousin?
00:08:37It's just braids
00:08:38It's just ugly
00:08:40And you look cheap
00:08:41You don't have to be
00:08:43Take them out
00:08:44They took hours
00:08:46Oh really?
00:08:47They took hours?
00:08:51I don't give a damn
00:08:52If it took all week
00:08:53Take them out now
00:09:18I gotta save this one
00:09:21She is fine
00:09:33You missed a complies review today
00:09:35It was optional
00:09:37For associates
00:09:39You're not one
00:09:41Why do I feel like you only drop by
00:09:43When you think I've stepped out of line?
00:09:46Do you think that?
00:09:48No
00:09:49But I know the look
00:09:51That's your audit face
00:09:57So you entertaining during office hours now?
00:10:01Gotta make the new hires feel welcome, right?
00:10:04I mean, we're not savages, are we?
00:10:08Here's the second quarter compliance review
00:10:10Don't skim it
00:10:11I need your initials on every page
00:10:26This looks new
00:10:28It's been there
00:10:30You just haven't noticed
00:10:33Is that so?
00:10:44Let me be clear
00:10:46I don't need your approval
00:10:49I just expect your
00:10:51Discretion
00:10:56Discretion?
00:10:58That sounds like
00:10:59Exactly what it sounds like
00:11:03You good at cleaning up
00:11:07Immaculate
00:11:09Even blood
00:11:12Especially blood
00:11:18Like your desk man
00:11:21Meet him Prince
00:11:41Like the beginning of mid-street
00:11:43Like the beginning of mid-street
00:11:46Like the beginning of mid-street
00:11:49. . 。
00:11:52. .
00:11:52.
00:11:53.
00:11:54I
00:12:25I don't know.
00:13:04I don't know.
00:13:45No, that's not what I said.
00:13:49Yes.
00:13:50Just make sure the paperwork is on my desk.
00:13:52I don't want to hear his mouth today.
00:13:54Okay.
00:13:58You heading out already?
00:14:00What does it look like?
00:14:09You should do the blue.
00:14:11The blue?
00:14:13Yeah, no.
00:14:16I'll do the yellow.
00:14:19Yeah.
00:14:20Oh, that's Tasha.
00:14:23Of course it is.
00:14:26Well, damn.
00:14:26I didn't know I needed to make an appointment to come visit family.
00:14:30Gosh.
00:14:31You don't need an appointment.
00:14:32You need boundaries.
00:14:35Oh.
00:14:37Okay.
00:14:38Okay, I see you finally learned that word, huh?
00:14:41Good for you.
00:14:43Bonnie, whose husband are you sleeping with this week?
00:14:46Jamal, please.
00:14:47She is just stopping by.
00:14:49She is always just stopping by.
00:14:52Somebody needs to tell her she doesn't live here.
00:14:54Don't you worry, because see, if I did, oh, you would for damn sure notice me, nigga.
00:15:02Hold my mouth.
00:15:04We'll talk later.
00:15:08And you?
00:15:10Try not to ruin her day for once.
00:15:17I can't stand him.
00:15:19Do he always got to make an exit like he in a damn movie or something?
00:15:23That man hates me.
00:15:24And you know why?
00:15:25Because I can see straight through his ass.
00:15:27Well, you don't help either.
00:15:28I mean, you could be a little nicer.
00:15:32Mia, please.
00:15:33Okay?
00:15:33Because if I was any nicer, he would think that I liked him.
00:15:36And I would rather drown in bleach.
00:15:37You know, a few days ago, he did mention wanting me to throw a celebration.
00:15:42Who?
00:15:43Him?
00:15:45Mia.
00:15:47Girl, you better not be out here catering to your captor.
00:15:51You gonna bake, decorate, and still get ignored.
00:15:55That man don't want no wife.
00:15:56He wants free PR-er.
00:16:00I don't know, cousin.
00:16:01You better start figuring out this game, for real.
00:16:04I keep trying to tell you, you don't get a trophy for suffering in silence.
00:16:08Well, this ain't a game to me.
00:16:12Then why are you losing?
00:16:15You know what your problem is?
00:16:18You're too damn loyal.
00:16:20Okay?
00:16:21You treat love like a church.
00:16:23And Jamal like he's God.
00:16:25I just want peace.
00:16:27Then stop praying to men who profit off of your silence.
00:16:31Girl.
00:16:38So you really think everything is, what, just a transaction?
00:16:44Yeah.
00:16:45Everything is just a transaction, Mia.
00:16:47You give, they take.
00:16:49Simple.
00:16:50Oh, and if you're lucky, you'll get a receipt.
00:16:55I'm not like you.
00:16:57But you can be, and you will be.
00:17:00Or, you'll drown trying to prove that you're different.
00:17:04I keep trying to tell you, you better learn from me.
00:17:06I'm giving you some nuggets.
00:17:08How long has fruit been out?
00:17:09I just took it out.
00:17:10I don't know.
00:17:12That's pretty good, though.
00:17:18Hey.
00:17:20Hey, so are you, like, sickening convenience?
00:17:23Second in title.
00:17:24First to action.
00:17:26You trouble, huh?
00:17:28Depends on which door you open up.
00:17:32But, um, if you ever need somebody to walk you through company policies, I got time.
00:17:39But aren't you, like, married?
00:17:41I got pockets, too, don't I?
00:17:43Let me put you in one of them.
00:17:48You're wrong for that.
00:17:51You free for lunch today?
00:17:55I mean...
00:18:01Are you okay?
00:18:04Better now.
00:18:05Lunch today.
00:18:06You and me.
00:18:08All right.
00:18:30You eat?
00:18:32Yeah, we grabbed something at the office.
00:18:35We?
00:18:36Me and some of the team.
00:18:39New girl needed help with her access badges and stuff.
00:18:43You see any of my messages?
00:18:47Eventually.
00:18:48But you didn't answer.
00:18:50Mia, I was working.
00:18:54Working?
00:18:55Or entertaining?
00:18:58Okay.
00:18:59Here we go.
00:19:00Oh, yes.
00:19:01Here we go.
00:19:02You think I don't hear things?
00:19:05People talk, Jamal.
00:19:07Even the ones that smile in your face.
00:19:11You out there acting like you're single.
00:19:13No.
00:19:15So now I can't be nice to people.
00:19:18Nice or thirsty.
00:19:24Let me explain something to you.
00:19:27Just because you're miserable, don't mean I gotta be.
00:19:30You got the house, the bills paid, and your name on the mortgage.
00:19:35Yet every week you find something new to cry about.
00:19:40Because you treat me like I am invisible.
00:19:43No.
00:19:46I treat you like a woman who's forgotten her place.
00:19:49And what is my place, Jamal?
00:19:52To support.
00:19:54Not interrogate.
00:19:57So, so I'm just supposed to what?
00:19:59Stay home, cook you meals, you don't eat, text you shit, you never answer?
00:20:05And what, smile while you, you play Mr. Man, Mr. Big Shot to every woman at that office?
00:20:11Mia, don't act brand new.
00:20:13You knew who I was when you married me.
00:20:15No.
00:20:16I thought I did.
00:20:21Let me make something crystal clear for you.
00:20:25I don't owe you explanations.
00:20:28I owe you provision, protection.
00:20:32You getting that?
00:20:35Then stay in your lane.
00:20:38You know what my mother once told me?
00:20:42That no matter how much money a man got, if he don't make space for you, you don't exist to
00:20:50him.
00:20:51Yeah.
00:20:52Well maybe you should ask your mother for some more advice.
00:20:56That's right.
00:20:57She's dead.
00:21:02One day, you are gonna come home and realize everything you took for granted, packed up and left your ass.
00:21:12One day.
00:21:14Hopefully.
00:21:15But unfortunately, not today.
00:21:29What's going on?
00:21:32I figured since I can't make it to your birthday party tomorrow, I figured we'd raise a glass early.
00:21:39A glass?
00:21:40Man, I told you I canceled that damn party.
00:21:44No point in celebrating just because I survived another year.
00:21:47I mean, it's still a milestone, Jamal.
00:21:50I mean, even if you do show up mad.
00:21:58To surviving what was meant to kill us.
00:22:02To snakes that smile before they strike.
00:22:07Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
00:22:14Who got a West Coast client?
00:22:17Hello?
00:22:19Hello?
00:22:22Here.
00:22:24Okay.
00:22:28Uh-huh.
00:22:30Alright, well thank you.
00:22:32Where were we, man?
00:22:35My toast.
00:22:40You good?
00:22:41I'm better than good.
00:22:45To making our enemies nervous.
00:22:49And to keeping them guessing.
00:23:02It's that good stuff.
00:23:03Mm-hmm.
00:23:06Man, you ain't slick.
00:23:08You thought I wasn't gonna peep that weak ass set up?
00:23:11Did I?
00:23:13Man, you gotta stop playing with me like I'm dumb, man.
00:23:22What the?
00:23:27What the hell?
00:23:30You not dumb, Jamal.
00:23:33You...
00:23:33Just predictable.
00:23:35You...
00:23:36You knew?
00:23:38You've been switching glasses since I met you.
00:23:41You always thought that made you smarter.
00:23:46But all I had to do was wait.
00:24:13You wouldn't...
00:24:16Until then.
00:24:22You're not like you're scared.
00:24:24I have to do it.
00:24:26You're not like me that you're scared of.
00:24:26I'm not like you're scared of.
00:24:27I'm not like you're scared of me.
00:24:29You're not like he's scared of me.
00:24:33And you're like, you're like, what?
00:24:37And you never brought her around.
00:24:40It's like you were hiding her from us.
00:24:43Shame on you.
00:25:16Yo, I need you to come to me now.
00:25:20I'll send you the address.
00:25:42What the hell is this?
00:25:49Keep your voice down.
00:25:52You called me over here in a rush, but you didn't tell me that you caught a body?
00:26:01Oh, shit.
00:26:05That's Jamal.
00:26:08You killed Jamal.
00:26:11You know him?
00:26:12Oh, my God.
00:26:13That is my cousin's husband.
00:26:15Okay, so?
00:26:17Okay, so?
00:26:19That's family.
00:26:20What do you mean?
00:26:21I didn't even know he was married.
00:26:24Jamal never brought her around here.
00:26:26Well, that's probably because he's screwing all these thirsty paralegals you call staff.
00:26:31Gosh.
00:26:36Who do you think you're talking to?
00:26:40I'm just saying, Eve.
00:26:42You killed Mia's man.
00:26:44Now what am I supposed to do?
00:26:46What am I supposed to tell her?
00:26:47Nothing.
00:26:49Look, he stole from me, Tasha.
00:26:52The bag I told you I dropped at the office.
00:26:54He waited, watched, and took you.
00:26:58He was gonna expose everything.
00:27:00Okay, but did you have to kill him?
00:27:02Did you?
00:27:04I said he was gonna expose everything.
00:27:07Now you know I can't have that.
00:27:09Okay, so what are we gonna do?
00:27:11Huh?
00:27:11Where's the money now?
00:27:13I don't know.
00:27:14Gone.
00:27:15Wherever he stashed it.
00:27:19This is crazy.
00:27:25You know what?
00:27:27I bet his wife knows.
00:27:29What?
00:27:30No, hell no.
00:27:32Not Mia.
00:27:33Nah.
00:27:33Don't be stupid.
00:27:34You never know.
00:27:36And you know I can let her take it.
00:27:37Okay, so what is it that you want me to do, E?
00:27:40Act like I just don't know nothing?
00:27:43Exactly.
00:27:44Set her ass up.
00:27:46You get that bag back for me, I'll give you 10%.
00:27:56Hold up.
00:27:58Hold up.
00:28:00You killed my cousin's husband,
00:28:02and now you want me to betray her for 10%?
00:28:06You're still in debt, right?
00:28:14Make it 30.
00:28:1620.
00:28:1725.
00:28:2325.
00:28:24Mm-hmm.
00:28:26But if I even sent you...
00:28:28I will never cross you, E.
00:28:30Fuck.
00:28:31I'll play the loyal cousin, okay?
00:28:33I'll even cry real tears if I have to.
00:28:36She won't even see it coming.
00:28:40Shit.
00:28:51You know I got you, right?
00:28:55I know.
00:28:57What's the problem?
00:28:58It's my Jimmy.
00:29:01besonders?
00:29:09Hey!
00:29:10Kevin, you can see it.
00:29:10It's my boy!
00:29:14It's my boy, Jeeeh.
00:29:24I can't plead what you
00:29:25give me to.
00:32:00Small world.
00:32:02Do I know you?
00:32:04You don't remember me.
00:32:06Should I?
00:32:10No.
00:32:12But you look like you're someone that needed a reason to smile.
00:32:18Mind if I sit?
00:32:20Suit yourself.
00:32:31You ever notice how some people carry heartbreak like it's a fashion choice?
00:32:36What do you mean?
00:32:38I mean just looks like you're trying your best to not let your world fall apart.
00:32:45You always talk like this to strangers?
00:32:48Only to those that matter.
00:32:50What are you, a therapist or something?
00:32:54I'm a lawyer.
00:32:57Like courtrooms and suits?
00:32:59Nah, I'm like the type that keeps other people's money out of the courtrooms.
00:33:03That explains it.
00:33:05Explains what?
00:33:07My husband was a lawyer.
00:33:10Hmm.
00:33:11You said he was.
00:33:12Yeah, but he passed.
00:33:18I'm sorry to hear that.
00:33:21No you're not.
00:33:23All lawyers are arrogant, so stop.
00:33:31You ever get tired of pretending to be okay?
00:33:35Do you ever get tired of acting like you give a damn?
00:33:40My bad.
00:33:42You got a name?
00:33:44Depends on who's asking.
00:33:47I'm asking.
00:33:50Mia.
00:33:51Mia.
00:33:52Mia?
00:33:53Italian?
00:33:54For mine?
00:33:56Sure.
00:34:00Well, if you ever get tired of being invisible, Mia, call me.
00:34:11You always carry these around?
00:34:14Only for people that matter.
00:34:16I didn't say I'd call.
00:34:18I didn't say you had to.
00:34:21But if you do, call me from a quiet place.
00:34:31Bye, Mia.
00:34:31I don't know Petra.
00:34:35I don't know.
00:34:36I don't know what's going on here.
00:34:38I don't know.
00:34:39I don't know what's going on here.
00:35:00I don't know how to do that.
00:35:00I don't know.
00:35:00Alright.
00:35:20Just stop thinking.
00:35:24Just stop thinking.
00:36:09Just stop thinking.
00:36:26Just stop thinking.
00:36:27You would say I was moving on too fast.
00:36:33I just want to feel something again.
00:36:53What's one text going to hurt?
00:37:02You said stop thinking.
00:37:05So stop.
00:37:06You said stop thinking.
00:37:27Hey, it was a pleasure meeting you.
00:37:40Hey, just checking in.
00:37:44I hope your day went good.
00:38:08They think you'd hit the end.
00:38:10Well, I didn't plan on it.
00:38:14Plans change.
00:38:16Only when somebody messes with them.
00:38:18Oh, alright.
00:38:20Guess I'm somebody now.
00:38:22Don't get ahead of yourself.
00:38:24It was just a text.
00:38:26I mean, you picked the phone up this time though.
00:38:29Well, you caught me off guard.
00:38:32So that's all.
00:38:34That ain't good.
00:38:36People tend to show you the truth when they don't have time to hide it.
00:38:40Do you always talk like that?
00:38:42Like what?
00:38:43Like you rehearsed it.
00:38:46I just say what I mean.
00:38:49Well, that's rare these days.
00:38:53I'm gonna tell you what.
00:38:54Keep me around.
00:38:56Let's see how rare it gets.
00:38:59You got confidence.
00:39:01I will give you that.
00:39:04Confidence.
00:39:06Confidence keeps the world from tearing you apart.
00:39:10You sound like somebody whose things chewed up once or twice.
00:39:16Maybe.
00:39:18But I'm still standing though.
00:39:23I should go.
00:39:26I hear you.
00:39:27But you ain't hang up yet.
00:39:31You don't quit, do you?
00:39:34Only when I stop hearing that smile in your voice.
00:39:44I should get some rest.
00:39:48Early morning.
00:39:51All right.
00:39:52Well, I'll let you go.
00:39:54Hey, think about me.
00:39:56Don't push it.
00:40:00All right.
00:40:02Night.
00:40:04Night, Mia.
00:40:20You keep looking around like we're being watched.
00:40:24Sorry.
00:40:26I'm not used to this.
00:40:30Used to what?
00:40:32I guess someone paying attention with no motive.
00:40:39Who says I don't have a motive?
00:40:44I like talking to you.
00:40:45That's my motive.
00:40:47I like talking to you.
00:40:51This feels weird.
00:40:52Or it feels right.
00:40:54You just don't know what to do with it.
00:40:57You remind me of...
00:41:01Who?
00:41:04No one I've ever dated.
00:41:06Good.
00:41:07Because you deserve the best baby.
00:41:11I haven't heard that laugh before.
00:41:15Neither have I.
00:41:22I should go.
00:41:26You don't want this to end.
00:41:28Neither do I.
00:41:34Walk with me.
00:41:36Walk with me.
00:41:37Well?
00:41:49You want something to drink?
00:41:51No, I'm good.
00:41:55These all his?
00:41:57Yeah.
00:42:08You sure you're ready for company?
00:42:10You're not company.
00:42:14You ever wish you could just tear it up and start all over?
00:42:19If it was that easy, I would have bended it.
00:42:22Yeah, me too.
00:42:26You ever been married before?
00:42:29Nope.
00:42:31You ever plan on getting married again?
00:42:34In my mind, I'm still married.
00:42:38I'm not judging.
00:42:40I'm not judging.
00:42:40I promise.
00:42:42I know.
00:42:43That's what's scary.
00:42:46If this feels awful, I can go.
00:42:50I want you to stay.
00:42:53And I just...
00:42:54Don't know why.
00:42:58You don't have to prove it.
00:42:59You want to see something?
00:43:01All out right now.
00:43:03Sure.
00:43:17You're back soon?
00:43:19Yep.
00:43:21The best and worst of me.
00:43:34Are you sure you don't want anything to drink?
00:43:36You know what?
00:43:38I would love to drink.
00:43:56You want something?
00:43:58No, I thought it was a salt spider.
00:44:02No, I got a light at night.
00:44:04And it's beautiful.
00:44:05Even with this, what's also like my mother's place?
00:44:07Ah, gorgeous!
00:44:12I don't want you to quit.
00:44:15I've been a little kid.
00:44:16Maybe it's a little kid or anything.
00:44:16You won't want to make it.
00:44:16No, it's just a little kid.
00:44:26You won't want me to be conquered.
00:44:28Have you been a soldier for me?
00:44:30So, I don't know what...
00:44:31It's a great place, but I'm thinking.
00:44:32You're going to let me get my wife.
00:44:32I'm going to do with you in my community.
00:44:32One sleeping
00:44:35Like you just turned away
00:44:41Dust on the shoes you care for sudden days
00:44:44Guess some things stay
00:44:49Even when you couldn't
00:44:52Sorry I missed your birthday again
00:44:58Next year, what could do?
00:45:16Hey, did you forget something?
00:45:20Maybe
00:45:23Look, I just couldn't stop thinking about you
00:45:25Since I walked out
00:45:27And I wanted to spend more time with you
00:45:30We've already been spending a lot of time together
00:45:33How much time do you need?
00:45:36As much as I can get
00:45:52So, look
00:45:56I know I'm not him
00:45:57I just
00:46:00Feels like you are
00:46:01Though
00:46:03And honestly, maybe that's what scares me
00:46:08Tell me what you need from me
00:46:10In this moment
00:46:11Right now
00:46:14I just want to stop feeling guilty
00:46:23Don't fight him
00:46:29I can't
00:46:32Go home, Evan
00:46:34Please
00:46:36All right
00:46:37No, come back
00:47:06Didn't think you would show up
00:47:08You texted three times
00:47:10You showed up
00:47:11So, I'm winning
00:47:16How'd you know?
00:47:18I pay attention
00:47:22So, tell me about him
00:47:24Tell you about who?
00:47:26Your husband
00:47:28The one you talk to when the house gets quiet
00:47:32What do you want from me, Evan?
00:47:35Maybe just the truth
00:47:36You wouldn't know what to do with it
00:47:39Try me
00:47:42You really think you see me
00:47:44You don't
00:47:45Then tell me what I'm missing
00:47:48You're not good for me
00:47:52Maybe that's the point
00:47:56You sound like every man who's ever wanted something he can't keep
00:48:01Well, maybe I don't want to keep it
00:48:05Maybe I want it just for the moment
00:48:07Before it's gone
00:48:10You should stop talking like that
00:48:14Why?
00:48:16Because I might start believing you
00:48:34He just, he smiled at me
00:48:37Like he knew me
00:48:39Like he already had me figured out
00:48:42And then
00:48:43When I walked out
00:48:44He didn't even come after me
00:48:51Girl
00:48:53You are so damn dramatic
00:48:55And you making me dizzy with all this back and forth
00:48:58Listen
00:48:59Maybe the man was just being respectful
00:49:02You know, like
00:49:04Letting you breathe
00:49:05No
00:49:06It was a game
00:49:08The way he looked at me
00:49:10It was like he was waiting for something
00:49:18Okay
00:49:20Alright
00:49:21You are thinking way too much into this
00:49:24I know that this man must be beautiful as hell
00:49:28Okay, he has a job
00:49:30He ain't asking you for no money
00:49:32And he's clearly into you
00:49:35I don't know
00:49:37Something feels off
00:49:42Something feels off
00:49:43Right, okay
00:49:45Wow
00:49:45Alright, let me ask you something
00:49:48Did something feel off when Jamal was around?
00:49:50Don't
00:49:51Don't bring him into this
00:49:52I'm just saying
00:49:53I'm just saying
00:49:55Everybody is not out to hurt you, Mia
00:49:57Maybe this guy
00:49:59Is a good one
00:50:01Maybe
00:50:02Maybe
00:50:03Just maybe
00:50:03Just maybe
00:50:05He said something
00:50:08Something Jamal used to say
00:50:10And I think it just
00:50:12Messed with my head
00:50:17Cousin
00:50:21Come in
00:50:22Give me your hands
00:50:27Maybe that was a sign
00:50:29Maybe, maybe not
00:50:30I'm just saying
00:50:31And you know everybody in this city
00:50:34You've never heard of an Evan
00:50:36Evan Harris?
00:50:37No, I've never heard of an Evan
00:50:39Whatever his name is
00:50:41No, not before today
00:50:42But
00:50:44If you ask me
00:50:46I say
00:50:46Give him a call
00:50:49You should
00:50:50Call the man
00:50:52You would say that
00:50:55You expecting somebody?
00:50:57I wasn't
00:50:58Hold on
00:51:00Hold on
00:51:06Hey
00:51:06Hey
00:51:07Look, I was just in the neighborhood
00:51:08And wanted to come by and check on you
00:51:11Oh really?
00:51:12So you couldn't call or text me first?
00:51:16How did you even know I was gonna be home?
00:51:19That's a lucky guess
00:51:21That's not how lucky works
00:51:23Mia, who is it?
00:51:26Oh, I didn't know you had
00:51:29Hi, I'm Tasha
00:51:30Our cousin
00:51:31This is the guy I was telling you about
00:51:34From the coffee shop
00:51:35Oh, okay
00:51:36Nice to meet you, Tasha
00:51:38You too?
00:51:44Have y'all two met before?
00:51:47No, no
00:51:48No, just
00:51:48Deja vu, I guess
00:51:53Will you mind if I come in?
00:51:54I do
00:51:54Actually
00:51:55Mia, chill out
00:51:57Let that man in
00:52:00Okay
00:52:00Why's you acting like that?
00:52:02You just told me 20 minutes ago that I was overthinking
00:52:05And you are
00:52:06That's the problem
00:52:07Girl, you always think of somebody lying
00:52:09Let the man in, y'all
00:52:10Sit down and talk
00:52:12You might like what he has to say
00:52:15Yeah
00:52:17You might like what I got to say
00:52:22Come in
00:52:31I know you're guarding
00:52:32You should be
00:52:35But I promise you
00:52:36I wasn't trying to run game
00:52:37Then what were you trying to do?
00:52:43Just trying to get to know you
00:52:45I saw something near you and I wanted to see more
00:52:49Oh
00:52:51That is so cute
00:52:53I'm sorry, I'm sorry
00:52:55Look, we don't hear that kind of talk around here
00:52:57Everybody get what they want
00:52:58And then they're gone
00:52:58Boop
00:52:59So, just saying
00:53:00Well, not me
00:53:02You got kids?
00:53:03No
00:53:04A girlfriend?
00:53:05If I did, I wouldn't be here
00:53:08Honest and single
00:53:10I like him
00:53:11Sounds like the perfect resume
00:53:17Mia
00:53:20Let it go
00:53:22Jamal is gone, okay?
00:53:24You still waking up crying over a man who didn't even care about you
00:53:28Maybe this is your reset
00:53:33Jamal wasn't perfect
00:53:35But
00:53:36Oh my god, stop
00:53:40Do not rewrite history because this man is dead
00:53:43Chill out
00:53:49Evan, why are you really here?
00:53:55To be honest
00:53:58I couldn't stop thinking about you
00:54:01And
00:54:02I knew if I didn't come down
00:54:04Then
00:54:05I just talked myself out of it
00:54:09That is sexy as hell
00:54:11Girl, you better keep her
00:54:15I've never seen you be this nice to someone before
00:54:18Are you sure?
00:54:19You haven't met him before?
00:54:21Mia?
00:54:22No
00:54:23I have not met him, you asked me that already
00:54:25But if I did
00:54:27I would have kept him for myself
00:54:32How about you go get the man something to drink?
00:54:36Would you like something to drink?
00:54:39Yeah, um...
00:54:40Water would be fine
00:54:42Thank you
00:54:50Keep playing your part
00:54:53I always do
00:54:57I always do
00:54:58Oh, thank you
00:54:59Girl!
00:55:01Look, this one here?
00:55:02Now, if he start acting up, I'm gonna beat his ass myself
00:55:07Oh, man
00:55:09Oh, man
00:55:58Just thought our makeup was showing up on Inviter yesterday
00:56:03And you always carry flowers in your car?
00:56:07Only when it feels worth it
00:56:09You really don't quit, do you?
00:56:13Wouldn't know how
00:56:16Come in
00:56:37Still feel like his house?
00:56:42Because it is
00:56:43My bad
00:56:46Look, I don't wanna step on your ghost or anything
00:56:49I just wanted to come by and see how you were doing
00:56:53You don't know what you're walking into
00:56:56Maybe that's why I'm here
00:56:58Because I wanna know
00:57:00Here we go
00:57:02It's the truth
00:57:04What else do you do, Evan?
00:57:07Besides flirt?
00:57:09I mean, real estate, some legal consulting
00:57:13You know, just enough to get by
00:57:15I thought you practice law
00:57:17I practice a lot of things
00:57:19Do you ever give a straight answer?
00:57:24Depends on who's asking
00:57:26Cute
00:57:32Let me, um
00:57:33Let me take you out
00:57:35Take you to dinner
00:57:39I'll think about it
00:57:41Better than a no
00:57:43I'll let you know where
00:57:45I said I would think about it
00:57:52I'll let myself out
00:57:57Write over here
00:57:58I'll let myself out of it
00:58:00I'll let myself out of it
00:58:01Okay, so I'm going to try to get this style
00:58:17I'll go to the right place
00:58:17I'll leave my phone
00:58:17After, I'll go to the right place
00:58:17It'll be the right place
00:58:17I'm going to take you to the right place
00:58:22I'll be the right place
00:58:23We don't care how long you've been finessing paperwork you owe 400 racks, pay or we will make your girl
00:58:30pay
00:58:50Hey, hold all calls for the rest of the day
00:58:53Oh my god
00:59:34Yeah.
00:59:35What?
00:59:37You still playing house with the widow or what?
00:59:41Everything's good.
00:59:42She's warming up.
00:59:44I'm taking her out tonight.
00:59:46Oh.
00:59:47Well, don't wait too long.
00:59:50Word is people poking around again, and you know what people
00:59:53I'm talking about.
00:59:55You let me handle that.
00:59:57You just be where I tell you what I tell you.
00:59:59Whatever you say.
01:00:01Ghost.
01:00:11What the fuck?
01:00:15Tell him.
01:00:23Yeah.
01:00:26I'm going to get your money.
01:00:28Yeah, I got most of it right now.
01:00:34Listen, I'm going to get your money.
01:00:36Go.
01:00:38Go.
01:00:52Wow.
01:00:53You really went all out.
01:00:56You trying to impress me or something?
01:00:58It's just dinner.
01:01:00Don't read too deep.
01:01:03Men who say that usually mean the opposite.
01:01:08Well, hey, we'll call it dinner.
01:01:10With intentions.
01:01:16Uh-huh.
01:01:18Alright.
01:01:20This is actually really good.
01:01:21I told you.
01:01:23See, I told you.
01:01:24Hmm.
01:01:25You cook like somebody raised you, right?
01:01:27Yeah, I had a mama who didn't play about seasonings.
01:01:31You know, you don't talk like any lawyer I've ever met.
01:01:38That's the point.
01:01:45I guess we all have things we walked away from.
01:01:50Yeah.
01:01:52And some we can't escape.
01:01:58Are you always this calm?
01:02:01No, not always.
01:02:06Just tonight.
01:02:13You remind me of him.
01:02:17He thought he had it all figured out too.
01:02:20Mm-hmm.
01:02:22And what happened?
01:02:29He stopped listening.
01:02:32He thought he knew me better than I did.
01:02:36Yeah.
01:02:37Osmada.
01:02:40Is that supposed to be self-awareness or a red flag?
01:02:46Okay.
01:02:47You got me.
01:02:49I got you.
01:02:51Wow.
01:02:51What he's just saying is both.
01:02:53Both.
01:02:56Yeah, both.
01:03:00Do you ever get tired of people expecting you to have all the answers?
01:03:07Every damn day.
01:03:15You know, you are very hard to read.
01:03:20That's on purpose.
01:03:23That's on purpose.
01:03:31Is that work or something?
01:03:35It's, um, it's something.
01:03:40It's, um, toast.
01:03:43To starting over.
01:03:46To not getting played twice.
01:03:49To not getting played twice.
01:03:59Excuse me, Evan, where's your bathroom?
01:04:01It's right down the hall to the right.
01:04:03Oh, I'm here.
01:04:04Mm-hmm.
01:04:05Come on.
01:04:30Listen.
01:04:32You're gonna get your damn money.
01:04:37How long?
01:04:38Okay.
01:04:40Okay, listen to me.
01:04:42You make dirty money.
01:04:44Huh?
01:04:45I clean set money.
01:04:47I get that money, then I keep it out of the courts for you.
01:04:51Huh?
01:04:52You stay rich, I get paid.
01:04:55That's how this works.
01:04:56We both benefit.
01:05:00I'm gonna get you your money.
01:05:02I'm gonna get you your fucking...
01:05:04Hello?
01:05:05Hello?
01:05:07Fuck!
01:05:09Hey.
01:05:10Everything all right?
01:05:11Yeah.
01:05:13Good, good, good.
01:05:14Wanna sit and have another drink?
01:05:15No, no.
01:05:16Dinner was great.
01:05:17You did amazing.
01:05:18Well, I appreciate that.
01:05:20Most men talk about doing right.
01:05:23You actually did it.
01:05:24Well, I mean, you know, you deserve that much.
01:05:27Well, it's getting late.
01:05:30I should head home.
01:05:32You sure?
01:05:33Yeah.
01:05:34Well, at least let me walk you through.
01:05:35No, no.
01:05:36That's okay.
01:05:38All right, then.
01:05:41Good night, Evan.
01:05:43Night, Mia.
01:06:04Mmm.
01:06:11Looks like somebody had a long night that I've been somewhere I probably shouldn't glow.
01:06:18Well, good morning, Mia.
01:06:19Uh-uh, no.
01:06:20Don't good morning me.
01:06:21Shoot.
01:06:22Called your butt twice last night and you ain't answer.
01:06:25Sent me to the voicemail.
01:06:26What happened to you?
01:06:27I was out.
01:06:29Out?
01:06:30Out where?
01:06:33Evan's house.
01:06:35Oh.
01:06:37Oh.
01:06:38Okay, so now we doing dinner dates at strange men's houses, huh?
01:06:43Girl, you moving fast.
01:06:45I like it.
01:06:47It wasn't like that.
01:06:49We talked.
01:06:51We ate.
01:06:52And that was all.
01:06:54Yeah, that was all.
01:06:55Yeah.
01:06:55That's what they all say right before they start leaving earrings on nightstands.
01:07:00It was actually kind of cute.
01:07:02He cooked.
01:07:04And he listened.
01:07:06I did not expect that.
01:07:09He listened.
01:07:11You know that's what they all do, right?
01:07:13The first few days, they listen.
01:07:14That's how they collect data.
01:07:16But, hey.
01:07:18You deserve to have a man pretend to listen.
01:07:21You ain't like Jamal.
01:07:22Heard a damn thing you said.
01:07:23That's real low.
01:07:24Okay, okay.
01:07:25I'm sorry.
01:07:26That didn't come out right.
01:07:27But, listen.
01:07:29Don't overthink this, Mamiya.
01:07:31Okay?
01:07:31Let that man chase you.
01:07:33You.
01:07:33Let him spend that money.
01:07:35That manyan.
01:07:37No, but seriously.
01:07:39Let him treat you like a prize for once in your life.
01:07:42Please.
01:07:43You really think he's that into me?
01:07:45Yeah, girl.
01:07:46He's into you.
01:07:47But the question is, what are you gonna do with that?
01:07:50You see the way I see it?
01:07:52You got two options.
01:07:53One, you can keep crying and mourning over this one that's no longer with us.
01:07:58Or two, you can open your eyes and see the one that's knocking at your door now.
01:08:02And if he acts up...
01:08:04Oh, you already know the code.
01:08:06Pineapples.
01:08:07Pineapples.
01:08:07Good girl.
01:08:10Well, I gotta get out of here.
01:08:13I gotta date myself.
01:08:15I just came to do a wellness check.
01:08:18Your behind wasn't answering the phone.
01:08:20Oh.
01:08:23And if he invites you over again, well read.
01:08:27Men like Evan, they don't fall in love.
01:08:30They get obsessed.
01:08:32Love you.
01:08:33Bye.
01:08:53Makeup on the counter.
01:08:55Dressed still on the chair
01:08:58His name in my phone, yeah
01:09:01But I just leave it there
01:09:03Friends say you should call
01:09:05And hearts say it's baby
01:09:07Hey, I just want to say thank you for the wild, the bad, the silent, all of them
01:09:15Good luck, you know
01:09:26If I open up these arms, will I lose my breath?
01:09:32Should I live in loving or keep these doors locked tight?
01:09:37Been building up these walls just to make it through the night
01:09:41If I give my heart, will I break all over again?
01:09:47Tell me, tell me
01:09:49Should a woman love again?
01:09:52Coffee getting colder
01:09:54While I stare at my hand
01:10:07You called me twice
01:10:09You must have forgot who's running who
01:10:12Look, if I'm broke, we both got problems
01:10:15I'm too broke
01:10:16You got problems
01:10:18I got solutions
01:10:19When I feel like giving them
01:10:21You told me the money was coming last night
01:10:23And it's still coming
01:10:25My bills don't wait, E
01:10:26Neither do the people that I owe
01:10:28Then you shouldn't owe them
01:10:32Look, I just don't like surprises, okay?
01:10:36Good
01:10:37Because the kind I bring
01:10:39You don't walk away from, baby
01:11:06You're gonna get your 25%
01:11:08Mm-hmm, I hear you

01:11:19I know what you was just trying
01:11:21But look, let's not forget who said this whole play up

01:12:52What's it?
01:12:53How would I know?
01:12:54I just told you this is my first time seeing it.
01:12:57You know the code?

01:13:28Evan, I swear I don't know the code.
01:13:32No.

01:13:36You think it's a fucking game?

01:16:42I'm proud of you.
01:16:45I'm proud of you.
01:17:03I'm proud of you.
01:17:03How could you do this to me?
01:17:12Don't start with me.
01:17:16You think I wanted this?
01:17:20You think I woke up saying, how can I ruin Mia's life today?
01:17:27I have spent my entire damn life cleaning up after men, smiling at their lies, fixing their messes, keeping secrets
01:17:38from scraps.
01:17:39God, but this?
01:17:41Oh, this was different.
01:17:46This was real money.
01:17:49Real freedom.
01:17:52He said,
01:17:56just help me figure it out.
01:18:00Help me pull it off.
01:18:03And you will finally get yours.
01:18:06Yes.
01:18:08That's what he said.
01:18:14I'm tired.
01:18:19I am tired of scraping Mia.
01:18:25I'm done begging for crumbs when I know that I am the whole damn meal.
01:18:32No.
01:18:35You were all I had.
01:18:43You was always too damn soft to survive out here.
01:19:03I'm sorry, cousin.
01:19:12I really am.
01:19:19What the fuck?
01:19:21No, no, no, no, no, Mia, Mia, Mia, Mia!
01:19:25I'm not soft anymore.
01:19:28I'm not soft anymore.
01:19:54Mind if I sit?
01:19:56Suit yourself.
01:20:01I'm sorry, where are my manners?
01:20:03My name is Andrew.
01:20:05Mia.
01:20:07It's nice to meet you, Mia.
01:20:11So let me ask you something.
01:20:13Andrew, was it?
01:20:15Andrew, yeah.
01:20:16Go ahead.
01:20:16Go ahead.
01:20:17What do you do for a living?
01:20:21Well, I'm one of the top lawyers in the city.
01:20:24The moon's a little too distant.
01:20:27The nights are deep.
01:20:31Shadows dance with secrets creep.
01:20:34Your touch is velvet but your eyes deceive.
01:20:39I'm caught in your fire, your dangerous fire.
01:20:43A love so sweet, it's tearing me apart
01:20:51You're my dangerous love
01:20:56Ooh, I can't escape
01:21:02Every kiss I cry
01:21:07Every touch my face
01:21:13Dangerous love pulling me in
01:21:17You're my heaven, you're my sin
01:21:22A whisper lingers like a loaded gun
01:21:29Your lies are bullets, but I'm the one
01:21:33Falling deeper where the damage is done
01:21:43I'm drowning in you
01:21:48I can't resist
01:21:52Every moment closer
01:21:56Every present kiss
01:22:03You're my danger
