Elle Rose (2020) - full transcript

Two best friends, Elle Rose and Carter, are bossing in every area of their life but failing miserably when it comes to love. When they learn that a special woman in their life is ill, they ...

- Elle Rose: My name
is Elle Rose Hart,

and I want to tell you the
story of how I fell in love

accidentally, with
my best friend.$

(upbeat music)

Oh, that's me right
there, Elle Rose.$

And here comes my
best friend, Carter.$

He thinks he is so
fine. He's alright.

Anyways, we are both
software engineers $

and we are both so
good at what we do $

that we can only compete
with each other for the $

contracts that we're after.$



(upbeat music)$

And even though we are
both bossing in every $

aspect of our lives, we are
failing miserably when it $

comes to love, albeit Carter
is doing a little better $

than me because he is
about to get married. $

No, not to me, to someone else.$

But let me just tell you
the story about how $

we fell in love. $

(phone rings)

Hello?

- LDX just signed with me.

- Okay, so are you joking
or are you joking?

That's a $10 million
dollar contract.

- The ink on that check
is drying as we speak.



- I hate you, okay? I hate you.

- I expected something
more along the lines of,

Carter, we're so proud of you.

Or, Carter, you're gonna
be the next billionaire

in our family.

Or something along those lines,

something a little more
encouraging, please?

(upbeat music)

(blows kiss)
Love you, sis.

(upbeat music)

(keys typing)

(phone rings)

- Hello?

Shecre, what do you mean
you're gonna be late?

What? No, you do this every...

You know what, don't
even worry about it.

I'm coming, I'm on the way.

Yeah, I know but I'm
on the way. Whatever.

(sighs) Oh my God.

(upbeat music)

- You are crazy.

- But ain't I telling the truth tho?

- Charlene: Girl, I'm not
messing with you today.

- Ooh, Charlene.

Look at your fine as wine
fiancée done walked up in here.

Girl, you better get him
before I bite him. Mm.

- Hey beautiful.

- Wassup?

- I got some good news.

- Which is?

- Let's talk.

- Wait, I gotta
finish my client.

- Get somebody to
finish her. Please?

- Carter.

- Please.

- Charlene: Moriah, I just
need to finish her edges.

You got me?
- I got you girl.

- She got you. I heard it.

Thanks, you're the best.

Carter: Hey, it's always good news.

(playful music)

- Shecre: Don't rush me.

You know I hate
when you rush me.

You cannot rush perfection.
- Well, if someone

wasn't running late,
we wouldn't be rushing,

now would we?

- Girl, bye. You don't pay
me enough to be on time.

- Keep testing me, Shecre.

- I'm just saying.

- How'd your audition go?

- It went okay. It went
well. I did my best.

We'll see if they call me back
and see if I got the role.

- Okay.

- And how are things going for you?

- So you're talking about Joseph?

- Who else would I be talking about?

- Joseph is at home with his
wife and kids like he should be.

And I just wished I would've
seen the signs before I let him

get that close.

- Unh unh. Unh unh.

You saw the signs, you just
chose to ignore them.

- Okay.
- Come on, sis.

- Okay, okay. Maybe I
did see the signs,

maybe I did choose to
ignore them, but...

Girl, look at us.

Every weekend, we're
setting up wedding cake

for someone else's special day.

When is it going to be our turn?

We can't even keep a man,
let alone marry one.

- Shecre: Oh!

(R&B music)

- Is this what you brought
me back here for?

- No, I actually have some
good news for you.

I signed the contract.

- With LDX? Get out
of here, seriously?

- Seriously, sweetheart.
They said we don't even

want to see anybody else.
We want to sign with you.

- Honey, I am so proud of you.

(kissing)

Charlene: Wait, wait,
just wait. Just wait.

- Baby, I don't wanna wait.

- Carter.

- Come on, why you
doing this to me?

Doesn't a multi-million
dollar contract get you

just a little bit ready for me?

- We've already talked
about this and I want

to wait until we are married.

- We've done it multiple times.

And it was good, you remember?

- Yes, it was great.

But I don't want our
relationship based on sex.

- It's not. We've already waited
14 hours, 5 months,

37 days, 37, 38, 39 seconds.

Baby, I'm on fire for you.

- Our wedding is two weeks away.

- That's 14 days.

- I know. And in 14 days,
you can have all of me.

- You know I've never done
this before, waited.

- You've told me multiple times.

(frustrated sigh)

- Okay, dinner tonight?

(sighs) I love you woman.

- Speak for yourself!

- Meaning?

- Meaning, I don't
wanna get married.

At least not any time soon.

- So you don't wanna
have children?

- Girl, yeah, one day.

But I'm not rushing to the
labor and delivery room.

- Well, honey, you should be
because our maternal clock

is ticking girl.
- Oh!

Look, I don't see where
children fit in my life,

and honestly, I don't see
where they fit in yours either.

Your life is work.

- Well, you know what?

I'm ready for that next
chapter in my life.

- Girl, write it.

Ooh!

(playful music)

I'll be right back.

Excuse me. Hey.

(playful music)

- Nasty.

- Hater.

(playful music)

- Hey.

- Hey, wassup?

- You know that new
salon they built

over there off Jonesboro?

- What about it?

- Well, I applied yesterday
and I think I got the job.

- Well, good for you.
Does Charlene know?

- No, but there's a lot
Charlene doesn't know.

- Look, uh, Keisha...

I don't smoke anymore.

- So I see a lot has changed.

- Mm, you could say that.

- Well, I stopped smoking too.

- I held off for about 3 months,
but I guess your change

is a lot more lasting, huh?

- Have a good afternoon, Keisha.

- You have a better one.

- Yes, Rebekah.

- I wanted to let you know
that your 3 o'clock is here.

- Elle Rose: My 3 o'clock?

- Yes, your consultation
with Don Coley.

- Oh. I forgot about that.

- Okay, do you want
to reschedule?

- You know what, it's fine.
Just send him in.

- Okay.

- Thanks Rebekah.

- Hey. Elle Rose Hart.

- Dr. Donald Coley
but just call me Don.

- Dr. Donald Coley
but just call me Don.
- Okay, so, please have a seat.

- Okay, so, please have a seat.

So, how can I assist
you today, Dr. Coley?

- Don.

- Don.

- So I'm a neurosurgeon actually

and I work with doctors...
- Elle Rose: Mm, mm, mm.

- and we communicate via
- Elle Rose: Oh my God

- Elle Rose: Is that his mouth
speaking or his muscles?

Focus, Elle Rose.

Uh, you know what, let me
stop you right there.

- No, no, no, just
hear me out first.

- There's nothing to hear.
My company doesn't deal

with healthcare software.

- You're not even giving it a chance.

- The insurance needed
for these projects

is astronomical and in
the case of legal issues

it's nightmarish,
so, it's a no.

- Will you at least think about it?

- Honestly, no.

- So I'm wasting my time?

- Unfortunately, yes.

- You're brutally honest.

I like that about you.

- Okay, so, Dr. Coley,
I wish I could've been

of more assistance and
thank you for your time.

- This is my card.

In case you change your mind.

Have a good day Ms. Hart.

- You have a wonderful
day as well, Dr. Coley.

Yes, this is Elle Rose Hart.

(gentle music)

You weren't wearing a ring
today when I saw you.

Joseph wasn't wearing a ring
either when I met him but

he was still married.

- Well, ask me if I'm married.

- Are you?

- Call and ask me.

- I like how your arms feel
around me. Hold me tighter.

- Like this?

(slow music)

- What are you doing?
(record scratches)

You need serious, serious help.

Look, my therapist is awesome.

(door shuts)

- Ellle Rose: Why were you
sneaking up on me anyway?

- I didn't sneak up on you.

I called your name three times
and you didn't answer.

- I met a guy.

- Don't you think you need
to take a little bit more time

between you and Joshua?

- Joseph, his name is Joseph, and
I'm not dating this guy.

We're not even talking. He
came into my office today,

he left a business card,
and when we shook hands,

and Carter, when we shook
hands, I felt something. Whoo!

- You know it's dangerous
to mix business and pleasure.

- I'm not mixing
business with pleasure.

- He wants me to work
on healthcare software.

- You have the insurance for that?

- Absolutely not which is the
very reason why I will not

be working on this
project with him.

- Well, maybe you should
get the insurance for it.

Artificial intelligence is
a lucrative industry.

- And you and I both saw
exactly what happened

with the Brinks firm,

what those attorneys did,
sucked every coin out of them,

and their software had serious
confidentiality leaks.

- We're smart enough not to make
those same mistakes.

- So you are considering going
into healthcare software?

- I am highly considering it.

- Ah-ha! You're a madman.
(phone rings)

You're crazy.

- Scared money don't make money.

- You're insane. You're self-sabotaging,
you're all of that.

- (chuckles) Keep on with the insults.

- Hello?

Yes, this is Elle Rose Hart.
Oh, wow, okay.

Yes, yes, I'm very interested. Mm-hmm.

Okay, yes, I will be available that day.
Mm-hm, mm-hmm.

(whispers) Carter, Carter,
it's the governor's secretary.

Yes, I'm still here.

Okay, yeah. Okay, I got it,
chocolate, red velvet,

vanilla, uh-huh.

And what's a good day for you?

Got it. A good time? Got it.

Great, so I will meet with you
this weekend for a tasting. Mm-hmm.

Okay, no, no, no, thank you
for this opportunity.

Okay. You take care, bye.

Carter! Oh my God.

That was the governor's secretary.

They were calling because they
want me to make cupcakes

for the governor's banquet. Oh my God.

(singing) They like my product,
yeah, they like my cupcakes,

yeah, I am the bomb, yeah.

Go Elle Rose, go Elle Rose,
go, go, go Elle Rose.

Are you proud of me, Carter?

(phone rings)

You're not? Oh, that's so kind of you.

Hey Dad, wassup?

Oh God, what's wrong, what's going on?

Okay.

Okay, uhm...

Okay, Dad, calm down.
Okay, me and Carter,

we're gonna be right behind you.

We're leaving now, okay?

I love you.

Carter, we gotta go.
We gotta go. We gotta go.

(sad music)

- How is she?

- Ellison: How's my mom?

- Is she okay?

- We have stabilized her condition.

- So what's wrong with her, doc?

- Her blood wasn't properly oxygenated

which caused her to become unconscious.

Blood pressure was high
enough to cause a stroke,

but luckily, we caught
her in time.

- But grandma looked much darker
than she really is,

and her entire body looked swollen.

- From fluid, but we've taken care
of the problem and she's resting now.

We'd like to keep her
until her oxygen level is higher

and we're sure that no blood clots form.

- Okay, but what caused her blood

to become under oxygenated
in the first place?

- The patient has not given consent

for the release of certain information.

- Hold on, what do you mean

patient hasn't given consent
for release of?

Man, that is my mother in there.
- Dad, dad!

- No, look, I got a right to know

what the hell is going on.
- Dad! Stop.

- Mr. Hart, I understand your frustration

yet I cannot release her health history

as it would be a violation
of the patient's right

of confidentiality.

What you could do is discuss
the issue with the patient.

- Well, can I at least see my mother?

Can you authorize that, doc?

- Dad, stop it!

Calm down.

- You can definitely see
your mother, Mr. Hart.

But at her request she
has asked to see a

Ms. Elle Rose Hart.

Come with me and my nurse
will lead you to her room.

After that, you may all see her
one at a time

as Mrs. Hart allows.

- Dad, grandma's gonna be fine, okay?

God's got this.

- Evan: Come on, Pops.

(sad music)

- Elle Rose: Grandma has cancer.

(Elle Rose cries)

- Carter: No, no, it'll be alright.

(sad music)

- I saw that video and I didn't
think it was funny.

I didn't see the humor in it.

- That kid is funny.

You know what,
I saw him in standup once.

Maybe he's just funnier live in person.

I'll get us some tickets.

- Save your money. I don't wanna see it.

But on another note, how's Gee Gee?

- Gee Gee, she's okay.

I'm gonna go see her after this.

- Well, me and the girls
are leaving tonight

at 7:30 for the bachelorette party.

You sure Elle Rose doesn't want to go?

- I doubt she'll be able to make it.

She's been stressing out all week

over beta testing for
her new software.

Do you know that she signed
a million dollar contract last week?

- Did she really? Wow, that's amazing.

- She's amazing.

- She's not your blood sister, right?

- No, we've been through this before.
We grew up as neighbors,

I was a latchkey kid and her grandma
and her dad kinda took me

under their wing.

- So you two never had sex?

- Good morning.
- Good morning, Keish.

- Keisha: Good morning.

- Look, I...

Look, Elle Rose is my sister.
I don't even look at her that way.

- Really?

- Wait, are you insinuating something?

- I'm not trying to insinuate anything.

- I just saw how you hugged her
that day in the hospital.

That was a lot of love.

- I do love her,
it's just in a different way.

- Good morning, ladies. Carter.
- Keisha: Good morning.

- I know you want to talk
but let's talk outside. Let's...

- No, let's not. I just, if she's
your sister, I can respect that.

- Okay, well, can you?

- I trust you. You've never given me
a reason not to.

- And I never will. Come here.

(Keisha coughs)

(cough continues)

- Are you okay?

- Some things just get stuck in my throat.

- I gotta go to work.

I gotta go to work.

(R&B music)

- Call me later.

(R&B music)

- Do you have an appointment?

- No?

- You have a client here who
wants to see you? Should I...

- Well, who is it?

- Dr. Don Coley.

- Okay. Well, give me a few minutes
and you can send him in.

- Okay.

I can't wait no more, can't wait no more

Sick of trying, that's why
I'm always hiding

Cause I complicate my goals,

soul surrender, that's why I remember

It's the simple things in life,
simple things

Either it does or doesn't feel right

It's the simple things in life

Come on baby, let's ride

(upbeat music)

- Hey, Dr. Don, what a pleasure
to see you again.

- Ms. Hart.
- Elle Rose.

- Elle Rose, Elle Rose.

- Okay, so, I usually meet with clients
by appointment only.

- So, what makes me the exception?

- Well, we've been considering
your proposition.

- And?

- And, well, we're not ready to take
on your project just yet,

but we are considering coming on board.

- Do you need more encouragement?

Because if that's the case,
I would love

to encourage you over dinner.

- You know what, I think I do.
- Yeah?

- I think I do need more encouragement.
- You do?

- Yeah.

- You still have my business cards?

- Yeah.

- Good.

Well, my numbers are on there,
so whenever you're ready,

call me and I'll make myself available.

- Okay, I will do that, Dr. Don.

(upbeat music)

- Have a good day, Ms. Hart.

I can't wait no more, can't wait no more

Sick of trying, that's why
I'm always smiling

Cause I complicate my goals,

- Bye.

that's why I remember

It's the simple things in life,
simple things

Either it does or doesn't feel right

It's the simple things in life

Come on baby, let's ride

(upbeat music)

It's the simple things in life

So?

- Shecre: Mm.

It's the simple things in life.

I can't wait no more, can't wait no more

Shecre: Next.

Sick of trying, that's why
I'm always smiling

Cause I complicate my goals,

Shecre: Ooh, ooh, that's the one.

Shecre: Why not? What's wrong with it?

- Elle Rose: No.

- Come back!
- Elle Rose: No.

- Girl. Oh my God.

It's the simple things in life

Come on baby, let's ride

- So, what do you think?

- Uh, I mean, girl if you like it, I love it.

- Ma'am, what are you doing?

- I didn't get the role.

I didn't get the role.

- Shecre.

- Shecre: Now, I just wanna be
depressed and fat.

- Look, Les Brown said it best.
It's not over until you win.

- I don't wanna be motivated.

I wanna be depressed
and I wanna be fat.

I wanna be fat and depressed,
depressed fat, fat depressed,

depressed fat.
Did you not catch that? Huh?

Please tell me, please tell me
you don't have that same

first date rule, still?

- Yeah, I do. I have it.

- Hello, it's the 21st century.

People have babies on the first date.

And by the way, you've got a little
lipstick on your tooth right there.

Yep, right there. Get it, and got it.

And I think you should switch to red.

Might help you out with that dress.

I'm gonna go and be depressed
and be fat.

You know what...

I'm gon' be real fat.

I didn't get the role.

(singing) I didn't get the role, I didn't get the role.

- It's not over Shecre.

- Elle, I didn't get the role.

- It's not over.

She'll be alright.

She said red.

I think it looks okay.

I'm going on a date!

(jazzy music)

So, why do you love cutting into people?

- Why do you love computer stuff?

- I love cracking codes,
I love solving problems, I love

making life more efficient for people.

- I guess you could say
we do the same thing,

just with a different medium.

- Right.

- So, you're a doctor

and a very handsome one at that.

- Thank you.

- You have the money,
you have the looks,

you have the prestige.

- And the credit score.

- And the credit score, right.

So, how are you single?

- Do you want an honest answer

or a neatly packaged answer?

- No, just give it to me straight.

Are you gay, are you sexually fluid?

- I'm not gay or sexually fluid.

Sexually fluid, what does
that even mean?

- Okay, so it's when your sexual
preference change over time

based on your present circumstance.

- What?
- Yeah, yeah.

- How do you even know that?

- My friend Shecre,
she told me about it.

- Is she, are you?

- Oh, no.

No, no, no, no.

See, Shecre, she loves penis.

She does.

I mean, I mean and I love it too.

I love penis too. I love pen...

No, I don't. I don't. No, no, so I...

I don't love penis.

Sir, I don't love penis.
I don't love it.

And so now you think I'm a crazy lady.

- So...

(both laugh)

- Oh my God, I can't believe I said that.

Can we get a do-over?

Can we just take this
from the top, please?

Oh my God, let's just start over.

Okay, scratch. Start over.
My name is Elle Rose Hart.

- Got it.

Don: We'll save that.
- I like a lot, I like a lot about you.

I like your style, how you
came on to me

at the office, all suave.

I wasn't even sure if you
really liked me or not.

- How couldn't I?

- Aww.

(R&B music)

(indistinct conversation)

What are you talking about?

The penis scene?
- Yeah.

- Oh, my God.

That was so embarrassing.

- Looks like you're still recovering

from that one.
- I am.

I really enjoyed myself
with you tonight.

- You know,

I had a beautiful time
with you too, Elle Rose.

- So no more Ms. Hart?
- Can I call you Roses?

- No, (chuckles), only my brother
calls me that.

- Okay. Come here, crazy lady.

- Mm, I really like you Don.

- I really like you too. You're special.

- I bet you say that to all
the ladies you date.

- So we're dating?
- I mean...

- Because, I would love to date you.

- I don't kiss on the first date.

- What about seconds?

- Well, we would have to see,
wouldn't we?

- We can make that happen.

- Can we? Well, let's do it.

- Let me walk you to your car, Elle Rose.

You didn't have to turn me
down like that.

(both laugh)

- Mama Rose: Well, well, well,

I didn't hear you two pull up.
What a pleasant surprise!

- Elle Rose: Grandma,
you're looking good.

- Oh, thank you baby, you too.

- Hey, love.

- Oh, hey grandson. How're you doing?

- I baked you a chicken casserole.

- Thank you, grandson,
but I'm not hungry right now.

I'll eat some later.

And Elle Rose, what about that alcohol?

- Grandma, this is not alcohol.
This is sparkling grape juice.

- You need to live a little dear.

- (laughs) Gee Gee,
you haven't changed a bit.

- Thank you, grandson.

- Grandma, I'm sorry I haven't been able

to be around as much as I should.

Work's been keeping me busy.

- That's alright dear, that's alright.

Don't worry about work dear
because you and Elle Rose,

that's all you've ever done is
worked, worked, worked,

from grade school to grad school.
Don't worry, that's alright.

- Yes ma'am.

- That's just work.
- Yes ma'am.

- Yeah, I've been trying
to convince Roses

to come work under me.

Look, I think we make a great
team together

but she's gonna take some more convincing.

You think you can help me out?

- Oh yes, grandson, I can help you out.

- (clears throat) Grandma,
save your breath.

It'll never happen.

- I think you two make a great team.
You should consider it.

- This casserole is only slightly warm.

You want me to throw it
in the oven for a little bit?

- No thank you dear, I'm not hungry.

I don't have much of an appetite.

But by the way, how did you get over here?

- Carter: I drove.

- In that little toy car of yours?

- Carter: Yes ma'am, the Corvette.

- Oh, well, okay. Let's go, let's go.

Oh boy, let's go dear, let's go.

- Carter: Oh, oh, oh. Grandma.

- Yes dear?

- Where're we going?

- Grandma: To the airport.

I want to ride with the top let back

to feel the wind blowing in my hair.

- Carter: In your, in your...

Okay, you said in your hair?

- Grandma: Yeah.

- Okay (laughs).

Why are we going to the airport?

It doesn't matter about the why.

We can establish that on our way
to our destination.

(Carter laughs)
- Okay.

- Elle Rose: You two have fun.

And Cart, this is really good.

- Yeah, I know it is. I cooked it.

- I lied. It tastes like rotten eggs.

- Don't you say that to my grandson.

- That's why I nailed the contract
today and you didn't.

- That's why I'm getting married
tomorrow and you're not.

(playful music)

- That was mean, Carter. That was mean.

- No it was not. Don't you talk to
my grandson like that.

Grandma: Come on grandson, let's go.

Grandma: You're my most precious
one dear.

Carter: I know I am.

- I can't believe that you are
not having a bachelor's party.

- Look, I know myself, I know
what I'm capable of.

Best bet is for me to go home,
get some sleep,

wake up tomorrow and go get married.

- So what's bothering you?
- Gee Gee.

- It's something else, I can sense it.

Are you nervous?

- About the wedding? Of course.
Like forever is a long time.

- Okay, so cold feet.

- I don't know what it is I'm feeling.

- Listen, Charlene is a good girl.

When you chose her, you chose
the cream of the crop.

I don't think you have anything
to worry about.

- I'm worried about me.

Is it all out of my system?
I don't wanna hurt her.

- Have you cheated on her?

- No.

Not since the proposal.

- And before the proposal?

- Look, old habits die hard.

- (sighs) What did you do?

- Swear you won't tell.

- Oh my God. I won't say anything.

- Well, before we became official,

I was sleeping with her employee.

- Carter, jeez! What were you thinking?

- Look, I didn't know that we
would take off the way we did.

I didn't know I'd fall in love with her.

- Have you told her?

- No! How are you supposed to tell
somebody something like that?

- When things became serious, that's
when you should've told her.

- Well, I didn't know how. It was awkward.

- You should've told her.

- Well, it's too late now and now
Keisha keeps giving me

these lowkey glances and saying
all this under-handed stuff.

I don't trust her. What if she
says something?

- It's never too late
to tell the truth

and I don't think it's a good
idea for you to go

into this marriage on lies.

- Rock, paper, scissors.
- For what?

- Look, if you win, then I tell her.

If I win, then these lips stay zipped.

- I'm getting out of this car.
- Aye, aye, look, look!

Rock, paper, scissors.

- This is not a game.

- I know it's not a game.

But if fate agrees with you

that this is something that she
should know then I'll do it.

- This is too easy. You always do rock
the first time. You are predictable.

- Two out of three. Best two out
of three, let's go.

- Cut, cut.

- Oh crap. Best three out of five.

- I'm, no, I'm not doing this
with you, okay?

If you wanna tell her, tell her.
If not, just keep it hidden.

- Why do you say hidden?
You make it sound so bad.

(phone rings)

Who's that?
- My doctor friend.

- Oh your doctor friend...
Doctor Coley makes you smile like that?

Roses, it's been a long time since
I've seen a man

make you smile like that.

I need to speak to him.

I'll tell you if he's the
real deal or not.

- How about no? Goodnight, big head.

Hey you.

(romantic music)

- Why aren't you taking pictures?

- I like to wait until
the place is full first.

- How do you know that our bride

doesn't want snaps of her guests

as they enter the vicinity?

- Whatever.

- Click, click.

Click, click.

- Excuse me--
- What?

- We have a serious, serious problem.

- Planner: How serious is serious?

- Like, majorly serious? Possibly
irreparably serious.

- Let's go. These millennial brides.

(suspenseful music)

- You did what?!

- You told me to tell her.

- I didn't tell you to tell her that,
I didn't say that.

- You forgot rock, paper,
scissors already?

- Carter, now is not the time to joke.

- I don't think it's funny,
so I'm not joking.

It's not a joke, definitely.

- I think you, I think you
did this on purpose.

Yeah, I think you were looking
for a way to mess it all up.

- Why would I?

Do you know how much money
I spent on this wedding?

- Okay, well, what did you say?

- What do you mean?

- What were the words that came
out of your mouth?

Pretend I'm her, I'm Charlene. Go!

- Carter: Okay, hey, fellas,
can you just...

- Sure, sure. We got you.

- Alright.
- Let's give them a minute.

- Okay, so...

Can you put your phone to your ear?

It wasn't a face to face conversation.

It was done over the phone.

- Are you serious?

- Just take out your phone
and just pretend with me.

If we're going to pretend, let's pretend.

- So to add insult to injury,
you go and break the news

that you cheated over the phone.

Who does that? What are you...

- Okay, look. I didn't cheat, okay?
We weren't even serious at the time.

I mean, we were serious, we weren't
very serious at the time.

- Here he go. Oh my God.

- We weren't like serious, we were
talking serious but we weren't like

"I'm gonna be your husband, you're
gonna be my wife" forever serious.

That level wasn't even reached
at the time.

- Carter, Carter, stop.
This is a joke to you.

- I don't have time for it.
- Roses.

Look, this is very serious to me.

- Is it?
- Yeah.

I just don't know what to do.

I don't know where Charlene is,
she won't pick up her phone.

Sister went over to her house,
the car's not there.

I don't know, I...

And Gee Gee's just...
- And Grandma,

Grandma is sitting out there
waiting to see you get married.

(sighs) Oh my God.

- Alright, so what do I do?

- This is not good. This is not good.

So you go out there,
you go out there Carter,

and you hope to God
that she shows up.

- And if she doesn't?

- Then those are the consequences

of your actions that you're just

gonna have to deal with.

Oh my God, you make me sick!

(indistinct chatter)

(melancholy music)

- Carter: Moriah.
- Hi Carter, how are you?

- I apologize.

- What can I do for you?

- You know why I'm here.

Just trying to get in touch with Charlene.

- I'm sorry, Carter, I haven't
heard from her.

- That's the same thing every
one of her friends

have said so far, you know that.

- Sorry.

Alright Carter.
- Excuse me.

(melancholy music)

(sad music)

(ambulance siren)

(sad music)

- Mama's dead?

- They gave her two weeks.

They're putting her on hospice (crying).

- No!

No!

(crying and wailing)

(sad music)

- Carter: Where is Shecre
when you need her?

- Elle Rose: I didn't tell you?

She got cast for that indie film
down in Miami.

She'll be back this weekend.

- Carter: Whoa, who's going
to help you set up tomorrow?

- You (chuckles).

And Don, Don's coming but
he's going to be running a little late.

- You owe me big time for this.

I'm talking about VIP tickets
to the next Cowboys games.

- I got you, I got you, Carter.

I'm just trying to figure out what

to get grandma for her birthday.

- Yeah, I've been thinking
about that a lot too.

What do you get for the person
that you love that's...

- Right.
- ...dying.

What could we give her
that she could enjoy

for the next two weeks?

Wow.

- What?

- Wow.

- What's wow?

- Nah, it wouldn't work.

- What wouldn't work?

You're not saying anything,
what are you talking about?

Carter, I will take your head clear
off your body with this thing

if you don't tell me. What are you
talking about?

- It wouldn't work.

- What wouldn't work? You're not
saying anything. What?

- Okay, look.

The perfect gift for her.

What would be the perfect gift
for Gee Gee?

- You married.
- And?

- And me married too, with a baby
in my belly probably.

- Exactly.

- Okay, so, Carter, I'm not quite
following your logic here

because your lady is M.I.A, and me
and Don, we're entirely too

fresh to even consider the idea of...

I know you're not thinking what
I think you're thinking?

Oh my God, no. No, we're not doing that.

- Just forget about it.

- Yeah, let's forget about it
and not bring it up, ever again.

Okay, so, what would I tell Don?

- You don't need to tell him anything.
What for? This isn't real.

This is something that we're doing
for your grandma to give her

a beautiful parting gift.

- Carter, grandma is sick,
she's not stupid.

If it doesn't read real,
she's not going to buy it,

and the only way she'll buy it
is if the family buys it and...

- Which is why we need to kiss.

- I promise to God,
every time you say that,

it just starts rising in the back
of my throat and it's kinda...

- Alright, just forget it alright?
Forget it.

- Carter, I'm not saying it's a bad idea.
It's not a bad idea, it's just,

how would we make it real?

You know what, Evan. My brother,
he can spot a farce from a mile away.

If we can get him to buy it, then
I'm sure the family would buy it too.

- Okay, so that's why we should
work this out.

- Whoo!

Okay, okay. You got it.

- Okay so.

- Okay, okay, we're just gonna do it,
just, okay.

- Alright, now that just looks painful.

- Carter, please. Come on, like, this is
awkward and it's uncomfortable

and I'm really trying here
but you're not really...

No.

No, Carter, no, I'm sorry, no.
Nope, no, it's not gonna work.

It's not gonna work. We tried it
and it's not believable and it's...

- That's just because you're not
giving it a chance to work.

- I'm not giving it a chance
because it's not working.

- Look, please, just relax,

follow my lead.
- Okay.

- And trust me.
- Okay.

- The reason I couldn't marry Charlene
is because I realized

I was in love with you.

- Is that our lie?

- No, that's our truth.

- Okay.

- That we must believe.

And the reason why we couldn't
realize that before

is because we grew up
as brother and sister.

And neither one of us ever entertained
crossing that line.

Until one day,

a moment arose that elicited a kiss.

And once our lips touched,

we both realized

there was more between us

than we could ever...

(knocks on door)

(knocks on door)

- I really need to go and answer...

(knocks on door)

- Hey! Don!

- Don: Yeah, I tried...

(Elle Rose gasps)

- Hey.

- Don: I tried calling you and
you didn't answer the phone.

- Yeah, because I was busy.

- Don: Busy.

- Mm-hmm.

- Don: So, you need help
with the cupcakes?

- Yeah. Mm-hmm.

- Don: Can I come in?

- Yeah.

- Don: Nice seeing you.

- Hey.

It's good to see you too.

- Are you okay?

- Yeah?

- Positive?

- I mean, just a little headache but...

- Okay. Mind if I use your bathroom?

- It's down the hallway to the left.

- You've got a beautiful place.

- Thank you.

(toilet flushes)

- Okay so, hey, Don, this is
my brother Carter,

and Carter, this is my friend Don.

- Please to meet you sir.
I've heard a lot about you.

- Likewise. I would shake your hand,
but I'm a little preoccupied.

- I understand. So Elle, what do
you need me to do?

- Well, here, you can grab a piper
and just jump right on in.

- So, you bake too?

- No, definitely not.

The only reason I'm here is
because she kidnapped me.

Her friend Shecre is states away.

Did you watch the game last night?

- That tragedy? That's why I prefer
college basketball.

Those boys play with heart.

- Yeah, that's because
they play for the love

of the game and not a paycheck.

- You can go ahead.
- No.

- No, Carter.
- Excuse me.

-No, Carter, it's okay.
- Go ahead.

- Okay.

(jazzy music)

- You know you look pretty sexy
with those glasses on like that.

- Carter, stop. There is no
need to pretend.

- Well, we can break character
now that your man's gone.

- Do you like him?

- I do. I think if you and I weren't
already getting married,

that dude would be marriage material.

Except I think he can sense that you
and I have a thing going on.

- Carter, we don't have anything going on.

- You probably should stay single

until we're done doing
what we're gonna do.

We've got to stay in character.

We can't just keep going in and out.

Living a double life
is a dangerous thing.

Somebody finds out, the gig is up.

- You could be right.

- I know I'm right.

- Okay, then, Mr. Intelligent Man.
Since you're so smart

why don't you help me with this.

- Okay.

What am I looking at?

- The Surg-Image software.

- So you are taking it on?

- I mean you could say that.

- Okay, so you are mixing business
with pleasure after all.

- Carter, (chuckles) I think I'm mixing
a lot with pleasure right now so.

- Okay, but this could actually
be a temporary out.

You could let him know that
you want to put off any type

of relationship until this software
is developed.

Give you some wiggle room.

I see why there's so many glitches.

Do you see how old this
operating system is?

- Mm-hmm, yeah, I noticed that.

- Move to an IoT.

- Yep, move to an IoT with a
real-time operating system.

- Of course, an IToS,
and to cover your bases,

you could host the software

on a HIPAA-compliant server.

- A HIPAA-compliant server.

- Yeah, that way you can avoid
the development of future bugs,

problem solved.

- You are brilliant.

- Exactly.

That's why you're marrying me.

That felt real.

- It was supposed to, right?

- You think that we can fool your brother?

- One way to find out.

(news music)

- Reporter: Good afternoon, everyone.

Thunder storms starting to come to life

across parts of Durham County,
Granville County...

- Dad, I understand that, but you
also have to be realistic.

- I will not be doing it
and neither will you.

- I'll just pick one out myself.

- You will not be ordering a casket
for my mom while she yet lives.

- She is dying dad.

- Shut up.

- It's a hard reality but
we have to accept it.

- Dammit, I said shut up!

- Elle Rose: Hey, hey.
You two need to stop.

Evan, now is not the time to--

- No, Ellie, he needs to hear this.

Either he needs to pick out a casket

and make the proper arrangements,

or sign things over to me
so I can take care of business.

- I can't with you.

- Dad. Dad.

- Elle, I can't.
- Evan: He tripping.

He tripping.

- Now is not the time for this, okay?

He is hurting!

- And I'm not? I'm not, sis?

- Evan.

- You and Pops can handle it.
I need a moment.

- Evan!

Evan!

(melancholy music)

Grandma.

Grandma.

Grandma.

Grandma, can you hear me?

- Yes, and I heard them too.

- Grandma, I hate that
you had to hear that.

- I want y'all to fix me
some macaroni cheese,

and collard greens and green
beans and greens and

potato salad and yams that
my Carter cooks so well.

Some pound cake with some
lemon frosting drizzled over it.

- Mm, mm, mm.

Grandma, you going to eat all of that?

- No, I just want to smell it.

- Grandma, I promise you,

I have the best birthday
surprise for you ever

if you could just hold out until Sunday.

- Are you getting married?

- Yes. I am.

(gentle music)

- Where's the ring at?

- Well, he hasn't proposed
yet but it's coming.

- Carter better treat you like a queen

because it's been so long coming dear.

- What did you just say?

- I said I want some macaroni and cheese.

- No, no, no, Grandma, before that.
What did you just say?

- I said don't cook no chitlens
in my house

cause I don't want it smelling bad.

(Elle Rose laughs)

- Wow.

Wow (chuckles).

I love you.

- I love you.

(gentle music)

- Can I come up for a cup of coffee?

- No you didn't just give me that
played out can I get some booty line.

- No, no, I didn't mean it like that.
I would never disrespect you.

I just had such an amazing time

(R&B music)

I was trying to find a way to make
the night last a little longer.

- Ahh, you're so sweet.

- So?

- Don, honestly
(record scratches)

I think we should slow things down a bit.

- Where is this coming from?

- I don't like mixing business
with pleasure.

When it comes to you,
I think I got ahead of myself.

- So you're breaking up with me?

- No! No, I am not breaking up with you.

I am slowing things down with you.

- I feel like there's something
you're not telling me.

I don't have to be a neurosurgeon
to notice there's more

between you and your brother--

your friend--than you're telling me.

The way he looked at you
in that dress today,

that's no way a brother would
look at his sister.

- Don, it's not what you think.

- No?

I respect the virtue of
honesty above everything.

That's what attracted me
to you when we first met,

that brutal honesty.

- Okay. You're right.

The dynamic between Carter
and myself is changing.

- It's obvious.
- Is it really?

- When you figure out what you
wanna do, let me know.

Until then, I'll be your client.

However, I'll have my PA Michelle
work with you instead.

My feelings for you just
complicate things.

- Don.

- It's okay. I appreciate the honesty.

(R&B music)

Now you get that feeling,
something's changed

Now you get that feeling,
something's changed

Now you get that feeling,
something's changed

Now you get that feeling,
something's changed

I can't wait no more, can't wait no more

- I can think of a better way
to release some aggression.

Girl, how long has it been for you?

- See, and that's the problem
with the world we live in today.

- What?

- Since when did casual sex
become the norm?

Why can't people build something
together first

before jumping in bed together?

- Oh okay, like what you
and Carter are doing?

- Girl, bye!

I just lost what could've been
my destiny for this crap.

And I went to the hospital today
and brought the software myself,

and Don wouldn't even look at me.

- See, I told you from jump this was
a very, very bad idea.

- This is a gift.

- A gift? Since when did deception
become a gift?

- Both: Fine!

- You know what, no it's not fine.

Stop with the deception, call him,

yes, actually call him
and tell him the truth.

- Girl, Carter is a whore!

It's the simple things in life

I have helped him cheat before,
okay, numerous times.

I know who he is and I know how he is,

and I'd have to be insane to want
to build anything with him.

- Right. I was talking about Don.

(upbeat music)

Listen, this little date you have
tomorrow with Carter,

let it be play-play for him, but Elle,
for once,

let it be real for you.

(upbeat music)

- Roses, I said wear something
you don't mind getting dirty.

- I don't mind getting this dirty.

And why do you look like

you're about to go jogging?

I thought we were going on a date.

- We're not going jogging
but you cannot wear that.

You'll get it filthy.

- Okay, so what kinda date is this?

- You'll see when we get there,
but for now,

just throw on an old pair
of jogging pants and a filthy shirt.

- (sighs) What kind of date is this?

You should've let me pick the date.

- Aye, you've got the next one alright?

- Now, I've gotta go change.

- Well, let me know if you need

some help with that.

- And behave yourself.

- If you change your mind,
I'll be right out here.

- Elle Rose: Okay, Carter.

- I'm coming back.

- Elle Rose: Behave yourself.

- That's hard to do.

- You throw it on the wheel,
hence they call it throwing pottery.

To make the process work,
the clay has to run true on the wheel.

Instructor: If you're going
to make a piece of pottery,

it has to be centered.

Instructor: It has to be running true.

If it's not, nothing's going
to work later.

That's coning up.

And then you smush it down.

- Okay.

So now.

Why isn't mine doing what his is doing?

- You're not applying pressure equally
with both hands.

- Oh my God. Are you an
expert potter now?

- Well, mine looked a lot better
than yours does.

- Really?

Okay, how does this look? (chuckles)

- Not too good, but how does this taste?

- Carter, you're getting me dirty,
I'm already so dirty.

- How about a little bit dirtier?
- Oh my God, stop!

Stop! You make me sick. Stop.
(Carter chuckles)

- Okay, so,

how about if you,

you control the speed
with your foot,

and I'll guide our hands.
- Okay.

This isn't too bad, what do you think?

- Instructor: It's still among us
and that's not something

many people can do
on such an early attempt.

- So we are making progress?

- Instructor: We're making progress.

- We're making progress.

- So if you don't go through the test,
the firing,

then you may not ever have anything
of permanence.

Instructor: No one really
likes testing, but this,

you can come back in two weeks,

if I keep filling up the pie plate
with water,

it's not going to change.

It's already been transformed.

Some of the firing we do
here goes to 24 hundred degrees.

So it's fire that tries the quality
of every man's work.

(jazzy music)

- No, no, no!

Carter, I hadn't even
saved that yet.

You just made me lose
- Chill.

everything I've been working on.

- Most of it's gonna save
on the cloud. Come on.

What do you think?

- That is good, that is good.

- Carter: Yeah, I found it on one
of those Facebook recipes.

- Oh wow. So is the food done?

- Carter: Almost.

- You ready to eat?
- I'm ready to eat.

- You're that hungry,

you're just gonna stare me
down in the kitchen?

- I'm gonna stare you down
in the kitchen.

- Why don't you go and head to the table.

- Can I take this?

- Carter: Ahh, no, no.

No work at the table, come on.

(jazzy music)

- Carter, this food is delicious.

- Thank you.

- And this day has been lovely.

I have really enjoyed myself
with you today.

Like for real, Carter, not pretend.

- Well, I've had a lovely time
with you too.

- This seems so real.

- Yeah, I was thinking, I don't think
there's anyway anybody can see

through this, not even Evan.

Maybe tomorrow, maybe we can
meet him at a coffee shop.

- Yeah.

- What's wrong?

- Nothing.

So, we meet Evan tomorrow
at the coffee shop.

- I came across this.

(gasps)

- The other day and I thought to myself,
this, (chuckles) this is all Roses.

What's wrong?

- Why can't this be real?

- Come on, Roses. I thought we
were on the same page?

- When I kiss you, I feel something.

And you can't convince me
that you don't feel something too.

You know what, don't worry about it.

Just, just give me a moment okay.
Just give me a moment.

I can get back into character.

I can do this, I just...

I need time to process it.

- Roses. Hey Roses, look, I'd be
lying if I said

I don't feel something when we kiss.

I'd be lying if I didn't say I wasn't
scared to death when I kiss you.

- Why?

- Because when I kiss you,

I feel something that
I don't ever feel,

not even with Charlene.

And that scares me to death.

- It scares me too.

(saxophone plays)

- I know me.

I don't wanna hurt you.

- Then don't.

(saxophone plays)

- Mama.

Mama.

It's time to take your medicine, Mama.

Mama, it's time to...

(melancholy music)

- You think we missed them, thanks
to you and your morning routine?

- Well, maybe if you weren't
so good at what you do,

I could control myself.

(phone rings)

- That's probably him calling now.
- Right.

- Maybe I should call him.
- Yeah.

(relaxed music)

- Look, that's him texting now.
He's pulling up.

- Are you nervous?

- No.

Okay, maybe a little, yeah.

- Me too.

- I tell you what,
when I have to tell Mr. Ellison,

that's when it's really gonna hit me.

(relaxed music)

Oh my God.

- Five dollars.

(relaxed music)

- Elle Rose: Okay,
let's freeze this frame.

(record scratches)

Yes, I'm sitting at the table,
and yes I am pissed off.

Let me tell you why.
I know Carter. I know how he does.

The moment he saw Charlene,
immediately, I became forgotten,

which is how we ended up in this situation

because Charlene peeped my ring,
heard him call me baby,

and she thought everything she'd
been believing all along was true.

But for me, it only manifested the
reason why this accidental falling

in love was worse than an accident.

It was a train crash.
(drink splashes)

(relaxed music)

Elle Rose: And if a train crash
isn't bad enough,

my brother just had to come
and deliver some news

that would knock me to my knees literally.

- You guys might wanna have a seat.

- I'm not sitting down.
- Sit down, girl.

Grandma died in her sleep last night.

(melancholy music)

(Elle Rose sobs)

(melancholy music)

Evan: Elle.

(melancholy music)

(woman sobs)

Evan: I think you've done enough.

Why can't you just leave her alone man?

(woman sobs)

- Mama!

(woman sobs)

- Can you please talk to me?

- There is nothing to talk about.

And here's your ring back.

There's no reason to pretend anymore.

- Roses.
- Can you move?

- I really hope Pastor Kivens
do not give grace.

- Can everyone hold hands please,
bow your heads.

Dear Heavenly Father,
we come to you

as humbly as we know how, dear Lord,

to thank you for this day.

Even in the midst of sad times,
we pray that you continue

to bless this family with the strength
that they will need

to make it through these upcoming days.

Pastor Kivens: Let them always feel
Mama Rose's arms

wrapped roundabout them,
just hugging them,

squeezing and pinching their cheeks
and tickling their feet.

- What is he even talking about?

- Shh!

- Shecre: You shh!

- And we thank you, heavenly Father,
that folks respect you enough

not to talk during praying, even if
they saved or a sinner.

Pastor Kivens: And we thank you

that because of your love and kindness,

your grace and your mercy,

that the sinners don't catch fire

right before our very eyes
and burn to cinders

like wood in a fireplace.

In Jesus's most wonderful, marvelous,

sanctified and sacrilegious name we pray,

let everyone say amen.

- All: Amen.

- Amen.

- Woman: This food is delicious.

- You've got this Elle Rose.

You're gonna go in there
and you're gonna nail this presentation.

Because you are a boss,

and that's what bosses do.

(upbeat music)

- Man: We've increased our efficiency...
(record scratches)

Hey, Elle. You should be careful.

I think my raise is down there.

It's coming up right? Right?

That was my boss.

She just tripped coming
off the elevator.

(upbeat music)

- Elle Rose: So, of course,
I went in there

and I nailed the contract.

I mean, we didn't sign right away

but when you know you've
nailed a contract,

oh, you know you've
nailed a contract.

(upbeat music)

Elle Rose: And so Carter

did his presentation
but I had already won.

(upbeat music)

And because I knew that
he was just dying inside

because I had just landed my
own $10 million contract,

I waited and waited

for the phone call to come

but the phone call never came.

And because of the size of the contract,

I just expected him to
show up at the door.

But he never came.

- You should go talk to him.

- There's nothing to say.

- Y'all are best friends.

- Were. We were best friends.

- See now you're being stubborn.

Don't nobody know you like Carter.

Nobody's done life with you like Carter.

Don't write him completely
out of your life

just because of one mishap.

- Okay, wait a minute.

Aren't you the one who told me

that the reason why I was fooled

by Joseph is because I saw the signs

but I chose to overlook them?

Well, sweetheart, I'm
taking heed this time,

and you should be proud of me,
not reprimanding me.

- This is different.

- It's really not. It's not.

- Sorry to interrupt you ladies,

but when you finish setting up,

do you mind if I take a picture...

Don't I know you from somewhere?

Enrique: Weren't we onset together at

- Rock Hill, South Carolina,

Cinema's "Second Time Around."
I remember you.

- Enrique: You still acting?

- Shecre: Of course.

Actually, I just got back from Miami
filming a feature.

- I just finished shooting a feature
in Harlem.

- Oh, well how was that?

- It was great.

(clears throat)

- You know what?

Let me finish helping
my boss with this cake

and then we'll play catch-up.

- Alright.

- There, you got it.

You should be good, right?

- You're fired.
- You're funny.

I love you, Elle Rose.

- I love you too, Shecre.

- So how was it?

- Enrique: It was great.

(distant conversation)

- Bartender: Cheers.

- I wanna speak to the manager.

- Sir, I legally cannot serve you
anymore alcohol, you're drunk.

- I'm not drunk. Am I drunk?
Do I look drunk to you?

You know how crappy my life
would have to be

to be drunk this early in the day?

- Man, I'm not a therapist.
I'm just a bartender.

- Then let me speak to your manager.

- Bartender: I can't.

He's in the middle
of doing interviews.

(Carter chuckles)

(inspiring music)

- (chuckles) Oh, no way.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Hey guy, life sucks sometimes,
but it will get better.

(laughs) Oh my God, yes!

- He didn't touch that?

- Yeah, he licked the rim.

(inspiring music)

- Come on in.

- Carter's here. Again.

- (sighs) You can send him in.

- You want me to send him in?

- Yeah, you can send him in.

- Alright.

- Are you Ms. Elle Rose Hart?

- Carter, we need to talk.

- Oh, so you are Ms. Elle
Rose Hart. That's great.

You're just the person I'm looking for.

I heard that you are hiring software
developers

for your new healthcare IT department,

and I would love the opportunity
to be considered for employment.

- Seriously?

- Very seriously.

So seriously in fact that I thought I'd
come here in person just to show you

what you'd be bringing onto the team.

- So you are leaving Wright Solutions?

- I'd like to merge Wright Solutions
with your vision.

- So if I decide to take you on,
why should I hire you?

- Well, firstly, I would point
to my vast expertise.

I have years of specialized
experience under my belt.

- I think we both can attest
to the truth of that statement,

can't we?

- Also, my company's profit
line speaks for itself.

Not only do we
have record sales,

but I also have a broad
knowledge base

in healthcare software.
Furthermore--

- But are you loyal?

- I will be.

- Are you selfless?

- I can be.

- Tell me about a time
in your life where you

put someone else's needs
before your own without

expecting anything in return.

- Okay, well this example
may be a bit dated,

but it's the first that
comes to mind.

I once had this female friend,
she's very, very beautiful.

And this particular friend
needed a prom date

the day before prom because she
was dumped by her boyfriend.

He left her for the head
of the cheerleading squad.

Even though I had not
been to my own prom,

I decided to go with her just
so she wouldn't go alone.

And I can recall wearing
this light blue silk shirt,

and I really liked this shirt.

I remember that light blue
silk shirt being ruined

because this friend snotted
and cried all over it

when she saw he ex-boyfriend
kissing the cheerleader.

Does that sound familiar?

- I did not snot
all over your shirt.

- Roses, your snot was all over
your upper lip, your face.

- Oh my (laughs).
- All over me.

- It was not that bad. Maybe I
did snot a little bit, but

- More than a little.

- But he broke my heart.

- Allow me to spend the
rest of my life mending it.

Hire me.

- I'll think about it.

- Okay. I'll give you some time.

- And if it's a no?

- If it's a no then, as hard as
it may be, I'll walk away.

You won't ever have to worry
about me bothering you again.

- For the love of God, Ms.
Hart, please say yes.

- Carter Wright,

I want you to bother me
for the rest of my life.

Where's my ring?

- Marry me.

- Do you take Elle Rose to be
your lawfully wedded wife,

to have and to hold, to cherish
until death do you part?

- I do.
- I do.

(romantic music)

- Listen, when you get home,
I want you to sprinkle

oil everywhere, I'm
talking about sprinkle oil

everywhere, all on the walls,
in the bed, on the bed,

in the bathroom, on the remote.
Don't forget the remote.

Sprinkle some oil on that so
when he have it, he'll be like,

mami, what's this? You know,
you ain't gotta say nothing.

And then in the car, the driver
side, sprinkle some oil on that.

And if he's getting ready to go
somewhere and you know it,

ease out there real quick,

put a little bit on the ceiling

so it'll drop down on his head.
- Pastor, he's not that bad.

he's gonna be okay.

- Yeah, as long as you're
sprinkling that oil,

he's gonna be just fine.

So we're gonna touch and agree
and pray in Jesus's name.

- In Jesus's name.
- In Jesus's name.

- Pastor, you alright with me.
- Amen.

(romantic music)

- Elle Rose: So that's the
story of how I accidentally

fell in love with and
married my best friend.

And I asked Carter, I said,
why did Grandma have you

take her to the airport,
and he said because that

was her only regret in life,
that fear kept her grounded

and she never soared
her wings to fly.

And you know what,

when presented with
the opportunity to fly,

yes, you have to hit turbulence
sometimes, like what my father

is experiencing now because
grief is more than just

an emotion, it's a journey,
and some people get lost

along the way.

And it also made me realize
that the landing is just

as important as the takeoff,
so you have to finish

things you started,
which is why I went on

and finished Don's software.

But when presented with the
opportunity to stay grounded

or spread my wings and fly

Reed Robust, E-Struct Tab.

- Men: E-Struct Tab?

- Can we see your projections?

- Of course.

Isn't that what we're here for?

- Nice doing business with you.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

- Elle Rose: Well, I chose
to take a chance

on healthcare software,

and I chose to take an even
bigger chance on love,

because you know what,
when you trust the Pilot,

I mean the true Pilot,

then it's okay to fly.

Yeah, it's okay to fly.

(upbeat music)
