Judges, your scores.

One Luv, two Luv, three Luv,

grand prize Luv, please give Luv a
round of applause. Thank you Egypt.

Merci, merci.

Yas, BJ the DJ do it to me!

Go on girl, get your life.

Ooh-ah, the house of
Egypt does not look happy.

Shit, I wouldn't be happy either

if I looked like a bunch of background
extras from the Ten Commandments.

They better not try to
start some shit up in here!

I'm no punk bitch, okay?

Okay?

I'm Reggie Luv from the
motherfucking up above.

Preach.

I will straight cut
up a bitch up in here.

You know how I do.

Mmhm, sure enough, sure enough.

Uh, Little Bo Peep,
have you lost your sheep?

You were excellent tonight.

Merci.

Isn't your mother
looking for you?

Shut up, you're so rude.

God, I'm just saying.

She don't care.

Well fuck her.

Come on and sit next to
me, I'll be your mama.

Really?

Move, motherfucker.

I swear to God, if
it wasn't for the dick.

So what's your name?

Jonathan.

I don't like that name.

I'ma give you a new one.

How about, Spain?

Yes, I've always wanted
a daughter named Spain.

Okay.

God is just answering all of
your prayers tonight, isn't he?

Yes, Lord.

I am so blessed.

Mhmm.

All doctors to the ER.

Reggie.

Wake up.

Reggie!

Reggie!

Yay!

We are all here.

Hey Luv.

And guess who came all
the way from college?

Spain!

Get over here and
embrace your mama.

What's up, Mom?

Don't you worry about her.

She just can't bear
to see you like this.

Matter of fact, don't
you worry about anything.

We got your back, you hear?

Brought you a few things.

I talked to that bitch Carmen in the
rental office to let me in your apartment.

You could be dead for
all they're concerned,

and they would still trip
over that rent money.

Oh, and I found
your checkbook, okay?

I just need you to give me the fiduciary
duties to take care of your finances.

Yeah, he's gonna handle
that and take care of it,

while Spain and I, we're
gonna take care of you.

We talked over everything.

Ooh,

guess what I brought you.

Hey!

Hey, hey, hey!

Mr. Hamilton, did the orderly
bring you your blankets?

Oh I'm sorry.

You all must be his.

His family, nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

What's going on
with him, Miss Nurse?

He was speaking when
we brought him in.

Something ain't right.

He's not taking very
well to the spinal taps,

in addition to his
pre-existing medications.

This is all new for him.

Give him a little time to
adjust and he'll come around.

Meningitis, is it?

Cryptococcal.

A common side effect is
headaches, and that's why

we had to administer the
spinal tap several times.

Yeah, had a couple of patients
like this a few years ago.

I'm an RN, I work
over in Jersey.

Really? Um, where?

Cooper.

Cooper, Cooper, heard
good things about Cooper.

Well, I guess we
better get going.

You know, I wanna hit the
road before rush hour.

We love you.

Come on, Spain.

Merci.

Miss Reggie, I like this.

No bitch, you can't have it.

Well damn, I didn't even ask.

But you was about to.

You know I was.

Fuck this, I'm hungry.

Touch my turkey and
I'ma beat your ass.

So?

You takin' too
long, and we hungry.

We hungry, we hungry,

we hungry, we hungry.

Y'all keep it up and none
of y'all cunts will get fed.

I will pull this motherfuckin'
tablecloth right onto the floor.

I'll still eat it.

Not if I put y'alls asses out.

Oh honey, you wouldn't dare.

- Bitch.
- Whose palace is this?

Oh, that's right, it's Reggie
mothafuckin' Luv's palace.

I'm the queen up in this bitch.

Now bow to me.

No she didn't.

Merci, merci.

Come on, boo boo.

Help me bring the
rest of the food out.

Gotta love that shit.

Marco do not touch me.

This shirt cost too much money for
your greasy ass fingers, you hear me?

Mother has taught you well.

Where's Reggie?

Where do you think she is?

I asked a simple question,

and I expect a simple answer,
not some faggot ass remark.

Whoa, don't be talking
to my sister like that.

She was just joking with you.

He's a man.

You nelly ass queens crack
me up with that shit.

Who you think you talking to?

Who you think you hollerin' at?

Oh no bitch.

Marco, help Spain bring
the rest of this food out.

Can't stand those
types man, I can't.

It's all right baby,
it's not even worth it.

They came down to
heal, not fight you.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean
to ruin your get-together.

I know you didn't.

Let me go before I start something
that I ain't supposed to be doing.

I'll bring you a plate?

Hello.

I'm about to snap
up in this motherfucker.

Reggie, honey, what?

These goddamn motherfuckers
stole my oatmeal cream pies.

Look sir, I don't know
what you're talking about.

Mr. Hamilton, you
have to calm down.

They was in my drawer.

My sister put 'em up in
here when she came up here.

You did put 'em in
my drawer, right?

It's two o'clock
in the morning, girl.

I don't give a fuck.

I want my goddamn
oatmeal cream pies,

and I ain't going to sleep
until I get 'em back.

All right.

I will bring you some oatmeal
cream pies tomorrow girl, okay?

Anything else?

Yeah, some real food.

What?

Not this Jello ass
shit they be servin' here.

Is that it?

A Pepsi.

Okay, I will see you tomorrow.

And stop givin' them people
a hard time and go to sleep.

Shit, damn.

Crazy motherfucker.

Randy!

What's up darling?

Bitch, get off me.

Hangin' offa me, is you crazy?

Welcome back.

We got you not one... but...

two boxes of oatmeal cream pies.

Keep them in their bags
and put 'em in the closet.

Keep all my stuff in the closet.

I don't trust nobody up in here.

What the hell is that?

Fried chicken, potato
salad and greens.

Who made it?

Well, my mama made the fried
chicken and potato salad,

but I made the greens.

Where's my baby Spain?

Well you know, Spain started
her new movie shoot today,

Hollywood movie shoot.

She'll be around,
don't worry about it.

Uh uh, I gotta
get up out of here.

Y'all know this is not me.
This is not me.

Amen.

What you huffin'
and puffin' for?

Listen, maybe you
should stay here a while.

Look Reggie, you don't know
this disease meningitis, okay?

Leave it to the professionals.

And besides, there's only
so much I can do anyway.

Duh, you don't gotta go
throwing you profession

all up in his face like that.

Shit, I got my own spot.

I ain't trying to
stay dependent on you.

Well, about your spot.

Look, you know I don't care
about taking care of your stuff,

taking care of your
finances from now

until eternity is
concerned, but...

You've been evicted.

What?

Listen, you were nearly four
months behind on your rent.

It's not right for
you to stay in a place

that you're not paying rent for.

No, I've been paying my rent.

Give me the phone,
let me call them.

Give it up, because you're
lucky they're not suing you.

Well where's my stuff at?

Well we took car of
it, we put it in storage.

Well where the
hell am I gonna stay?

I got it.

O'Neil.

What about her?

She been living in that house
all by herself since Sonia died.

You used to watch her all
the time when she was little.

You know, you need
to cut it out.

Don't go there with me.

We've already established this.

Shit... this is blood.

Luv has been here for us through
the thickest of the shit.

The least we could do
is obey her wishes.

Call the girl!

I don't know, it's been a while.

What, y'all got bad blood?

Well fuck it, I'll call her then.
Give me the phone.

Uncle Reggie.

How you doing, sweetheart?

I'm fine.

I'm so sorry,

I just found out when
Kevin called me last night.

I feel so bad.

Don't, it's all right.

After not being around
when my mom was sick,

and being away at school,

I can't bear not being
around my favorite uncle

when he's going through
such a difficult time.

Thank you sweetheart.

That's the type of
woman your mother was,

strong and protective,

always shielding me from the BS
that the family had against me.

Don't blame yourself.

So, you thought about
what I asked you last night?

Oh yes, of course he can
stay with me, no problem.

And you'll be there
to take car of him?

I wouldn't do you like that.

Oh no, no, I wasn't
implying you would.

So when are you
getting released?

I gotta talk to a
couple people first.

Okay, well just let me know

so I can have the house all
prepared and everything.

Will do.

So, what did you
wanna talk about?

I wanna go home.

I'm serious, I wanna go home.

You're definitely entitled
to go home if you like.

Your meningitis is clear enough.

The only thing I'm
concerned about is,

the environment you're going to

and if it's conducive to
your condition and needs.

The last thing we would want is for you

to have to be brought
back because things didn't work out.

It happens more
than people think.

Will there me a caretaker
for you at home?

Yes, my brother Kevin.

Is he licensed at all?

No, but he's real good
at this type of stuff.

When my sister was
in her last days,

he was with her to the very end.

He sounds like a great guy.

I'm sorry to hear
about your sister.

Thank you.

Well, I'll get the paperwork
started and keep you posted.

And if your brother can come in for
one of your physical therapy sessions

before you leave,
that would be great.

That can be arranged.

Great.

Mom, I'm out.

Give Reggie my love.

Put that in a bag.

What, the basin too?

Yeah, the cups,
the basin, all of it.

Damn, takin' all they shit, huh?

I'm paying for it.

Hello Mr. Hamilton,
all ready to go?

You Kevin?

Yes.

Hi, Brian Hirsch, I'm the
resident physical therapist.

I'm here to take you and Reggie
down to the therapy room,

do a couple of exercises.

Oh, okay.

On three, okay.

One, two.

Good.

Is this process
gonna take long, Brian?

Not long, maybe about 15
minutes, I'll bring him back.

Nah, there's no need.

Just meet me out front
when y'all finish, okay?

Okay.

Ok, I need to you take Mr. Hamilton
and put him in that chair there.

- Right here?
- Yep.

Okay, now take him and put
him back in the wheelchair.

That it?

Hello Mr. Hamilton, Brian.

Hey girl.

Hi Miss Foster.

And you must be
Kevin, nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too.

I need for you to
sign these papers.

They're your discharge papers.

Can I sign those for him?

Mr. Hamilton, is that okay?

Are we done here?

Yeah.

Back to your room, Mr. Hamilton?

No, we have a ride
waiting outside.

Well, let me walk you guys out.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

If you need me for anything,
give me a call, okay?

I straightened up
as much as I could.

Oh no honey, I'm
not lookin' at that.

I'm lookin' at this
Cosby Show couch.

Yeah, this furniture has been
here as long as I can remember.

I went with your mother
when she bought it.

That was 25 years ago.

Well we gonna have
to bring this place

into the 21st century,
because this decor is not working for me.

You enjoying your pina colada?

Yes.

But I ain't gonna lie,

I'm missin' the rum.

You know I used to down

like three of these
bitches in half an hour?

Well once a drunk bitch,
always a drunk bitch.

Bitch, I know you ain't taking.

This bitch used to drink so much
he'd be drooling at the mouth.

No, I didn't.

Nasty bitch.

I don't know what
she's talking about.

I've always been a
responsible drinker.

Bullshit.

Ooh, that's my song.

Very nice.

I would have never thought of
putting bedsheets on the couch.

It looks great, it looks
like brand new furniture.

Number one rule
of interior design,

reuse and recover.

That's how I make my living.

You're an interior designer?

What type of stuff
have you done?

Well, i'm working on
starting my own business.

It should be open soon.

Cool.

Well as I've mentioned before,

I'm working on my degree
in psychology at Villanova.

And I'm also engaged.

Oh!

To that thick nigga that
was in here earlier?

Well, congratulations sweetie.

You marry that man,
and stay in school.

Lord knows, I wish I'd
have stayed in school.

But I was too cool for that.

Oh, I didn't know
that, what did you study?

Culinary arts.

Ooh, child.

Reggie used to throw
the best dinner parties.

No one, and I mean no one,
could touch him on the stove.

Girl, we should
throw another one.

You know I was thinking
about that earlier today.

Well let's get it.

I'ma call Nate, Jojo,
Devon, Henry, Hawkins.

Invite all those heffers.

We gotta set a date.

What you thinking?

How about the first
Friday of the month?

I'll have my check by then.

Yeah, yeah.

Well now I definitely
gotta fix this place up.

These are some real critical
uppity bitches we talkin' about.

We are going shopping tomorrow.

I was never much of
a Big K kinda girl but,

Kevin is sure spending
a lot of time in there.

I'm sorry, one second.

Hello.

Hey baby.

Yeah, I'm just out with
Uncle and Kevin, shopping.

All right, okay, all right.

I'm gonna hang up now.
I'm gonna call you back, okay?

I'm calling you back, bye.

Pop the trunk, girl.

We got a computer.

Bye.

Who was that you
were talkin' to?

Them?

Those were my business partners.

Hey, um,

this is Reggie.

Call me if you get this message,

at this number.

215,

555,

6782.

All right.

Where you going?

Out, with the girls.

What the hell?

I thought you said you was
gonna stay with me tonight.

Ooh, I said that?

I'm sorry.

Spain is competing in his first ball
tonight, and that is a mandatory affair.

So now what?

You're picking your
friends over me?

You're picking some
gay ass ball over me?

Excuse me?

You heard what I said.

Look, I don't have time to deal
with this shit right now, okay?

So, everything I say
to you is shit now?

What am I, shit to you?

Is that what you think of me?

Hello, we are here.

Where the hell do
you think you're going?

Answer me, goddammit.

Like I said, since you didn't
hear me the first time, out!

Y'all ready?

Um, yeah.

No, Spain baby.

Who did your face,
this is too much.

I did.
She wanted to do it herself.

Ain't no child of mine going
out there looking all busted.

Come on y'all, let's go.
We'll fix this on the way.

I'm so proud of him.

I could almost cry.

So,

what was that all about
at your place today?

Just a little dispute.

Well it didn't sound
that little to us.

Look, we've been
talking, Reggie,

and we have a few
reservations about Lenny.

Yeah girl.

It's cool you have
a man and all,

and we happy for you,

don't get it twisted,

but he be stressing you out.

Yes, he has a bit of a temper.

He's entitled to be that way.

Look, he's my man and I'm his.

Whatever goes on in our
relationship is our business,

so I'd appreciate it if y'all
stay the fuck out of it.

Kevin?

Kevin?

Kevin!

What?

Wait, wait, what's going on?

I forgot that my house
was getting painted today.

Let's go to the library,
it's right down the street.

Okay.

Kevin?

What?

I want a pizza.

What, what, what?

I want a pizza, order me one?

A pizza?

You don't need no pizza.

I'm making fish.

Fish that you requested.

But I don't want that.

I want a pizza.

I ain't ordering shit.

Fuck it, I'll order it myself.

Give me my phone.

Hey.

Hey sweetie.

Hey Kevin?

Hey girl.

I thought we made an agreement

that he wouldn't be in the
common areas during the day.

I came in today and you
were helping him, you know.

Oh, that was you?

I'm sorry girl, I thought it
was the mailman or somebody.

My friend was with
me, what if he saw?

Okay okay, I got it.

I'll take him upstairs tonight.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Bye.

Sweetie?

I ordered a pizza,
you want a slice?

Maybe later.

Who is it?

Oh my God, you will
never believe who it is.

Your new home,
it's quite charming.

We're preparing for
Reggie's welcome home party,

which, you're gonna
be there, right?

I wouldn't miss
it for the world.

You ain't gotta be adjusting yourself
like that, you look all right.

I see miss thang here done
upgraded to butch queen.

Girl no you didn't.

Still ain't shit.

Your fashion sense
may have improved,

but it will never
be as good as mine.

Me and you still...

Uh uh, don't go there.

You know how Reggie is.

Ain't nothing changed.

Why are you here?

Well, you know, I
didn't get a chance

to see you in the
hospital and everything,

so I figured I,
oh, hold on wait,

before I forget, 'cause
I can't stay long,

here are your prescriptions,

Spain asked me to drop them off.

No the fuck she didn't!

Look, she says she's
do busy to stop by,

ain't got nothing to do with it.

Ain't it time for you to go?

Well yes, unfortunately it is.

But it was good
seeing you though.

Oh, do you mind if I bring
a friend to the party?

Who's that, your mother?

Actually no, his name is Lenny.

Now it's really
time for you to go.

I'm joking, I'm joking.

Bye.

What is going on with Luv today?

This isn't
characteristic of her.

She's been like
this since last night

when that bitch Jojo
came over to the house.

This heffer had the
nerve to bring up Lenny.

Oh.

Bitches be gettin'
carried away, I tell ya.

Look, we might have to sign
her up for CTT Connect, okay?

Listen, I won't be able to take you
on her appointment for the fourth.

I'm gonna be out of town
that week for a conference.

So you ain't
coming to the party?

Well, I guess you
gotta do what you gotta do.

But I can't have Luv
up on no stinky bus.

And where the hell is Spain at?

This is her mother.

She should be here
doing what I'm doing.

Did you know she
had Jojo bring over.

Luv's prescriptions last night?

Talking about, she's
too busy, mhmm.

I bet she ain't too busy for
the 46-year-old married man.

Now didn't I tell you, don't
mention that around Luv.

What? I can't help it.

Like I said, bitch has
been gettin' too crazy.

Hold that.

It's gonna be okay.

Everything's gonna be okay.

I'll be back.

What's going on?

Who is that?

It's Spain, his
step-daddy's trippin'.

He gonna be living
here from now on.

Can you pass me a pillow?

Can you please pass me a pillow?

You can put these on,

and I'll be back to
bandage that cut up.

Are you out of
your fuckin' mind?

He ain't staying here.

Oh yes to hell he is.

I live here too, you know.

You can't make these types
of decisions without me.

Do I get any consultation
when Anise come to visit?

And do I ever make a
complaint about it?

That's different,
she's my daughter.

Well that's my daughter!

And I'll be damned if I'm gonna let
some grown ass man punch her in her face

because she wants to wear
a pair of pink jeans.

Over my goddamn dead body
will I let that continue.

See, there you go again.

Everyone else before me.

You're ridiculous,
do you know that?

Absolutely ridiculous.

I can't help it if I
wanna put that little boy

underneath my wings, or got to, as you put
it, gay ass balls and kick it with my girls.

I am not gonna stand here
and say I have a problem

with the way I live my
life, because I don't.

It's not my fuckin' problem.

Where you going?

Obviously, to you,
I got a problem.

So why should I even be here?

Reggie, honey, you okay?

Yeah, I'm all right.

You sure?

I called him.

Who?

Lenny.

Are you serious?
For what?

I feel like I need
to apologize, you know?

For what happened.

Ain't no need to open
up that can of worms,

and it ain't damn sure no
need for you to apologize.

I didn't reach him.

I doubt that's still his number.

Good, so there's no need
for you to call again.

What you doing?

I'm looking up storefronts.

I'm thinking about
starting up a boutique.

Storefronts?

Yes, for my business.

You're really serious about
this business thing, aren't you?

Whatever gave you the
impression that I wasn't?

Well you have my support.

Thanks girl.

Yeah, I think I'ma
need some water.

All right.

Did you see that?

See this is what
I'm talking about.

Yo, I'd appreciate it if
you'd put on some clothes

when I or any of O'Neil's
friends come here.

Oh, Miss O'Neil,
is that how you feel?

That would be nice.

Well, for future reference,

if you have a problem,
or preference,

or whatever, I'd like
to take it up with you,

and not Thickums.

What'd you say?

Stop, just stop.

Wow.

It looks amazing in here.

Thank you sweetie.

You guys are gonna have a
great party on your hands.

You're not staying?

It's Jorel's birthday tonight.

I'm taking him out to eat.

I don't think he'd be too
comfortable here at the party.

Oh, I understand.

Well, if dinner ends early tonight
I'll definitely be coming back.

From the way you and Kevin
talk about the old parties,

this thing will go all night.

Don't worry if you
can't make it back.

Have fun with your
man on his big day.

See you later.

Who was that?

That was O'Neil leaving.

Oh, she ain't staying?

It's her man's b-day.

Hello.

Well well well,
surprise surprise.

Reggie, it's your daughter.

So when you think
you gonna get here?

All right, but don't be late.

She said she gonna be here.

Ooh, that's my jam, turn it up.

You want something to eat?

Let me call a couple of these
bitches and see where they at.

Bitch, where you at?

Hm, you ain't tied up,
you just don't wanna come.

You hungry?

You should eat, you ain't
eat since lunch time.

I don't want any food.

As a matter of fact, throw that shit
away, don't keep none of it!

Put it down.

Ain't it nice today?

Are you still worried
over that party?

You need to get over that shit.

Bitches are two-faced,
what you gonna do?

This is a bill from Comcast.

Wonder how they found you.

Did you tell 'em this address?

Oh... this is a bill for $460.

Four months past due.

You need to pay this before
it goes to collection.

I'll wait 'til Marco gets back.

No, this needs to
be paid immediately.

You can't afford to wait.

If it's four months past
due, how worse can it get?

Well I'ma pay this, and
I don't care what you say.

And I'ma pay any
other bill that's due.

You can't afford to
keep waiting on Marco.

From now on, I'm your new financial
person until he gets back.

I'm sleepy, take me inside?

The streets are
alive with the sound of music,

fun and pride at Philly's
annual Gay Pride celebration.

Coming.

To dance and cavort,
all in the name of equality.

Hey Mom, what you watching?

Brought you something.

It's my party gift.

Sorry I couldn't make it.

As you know, I just started a new
internship with Sony Pictures.

They were behind on a lot of scenes
yesterday due to the thunderstorm.

You think I'm stupid?

Huh?

You're a damn intern.

You're there as an extra hand,
you're not obligated to do anything.

I know... I've interned before.

I was just doing
what you told me.

To go the extra mile if
it helps me get ahead.

I have no reason to lie
to you, it's the truth.

Bullshit.

You've been creating excuses ever
since I got sick, not to be around me.

Getting Jojo to drop off my medicine,

not helping Kevin out one bit.

And then, you come up in here a month
after I get out the hospital

with a bottle of champagne,
acting like it's all good.

I can't drink that shit.

I never said that I would be able
to help you as much as Kevin.

He volunteered my time
without me agreeing to it.

Uh uh, don't put me in this.

But did I tell you that though?

Oh, you don't have
to tell me anything.

That's your mother,
that's your obligation.

Oh my God, I don't believe this.

Don't believe what?

Me?

For lifting you up?

For putting my relationship on
the line so you could be safe?

What happened between you and
Lenny had nothing to do with me.

You know what?

Since you don't
wanna be around me

after everything I've done
for your ungrateful ass...

I never said that.

You can get the fuck out.

And don't worry about
looking the fuck back.

Go be with your married ass man.

That's until he drops
your young stupid ass.

I appreciate everything
you've ever done for me.

More than you'll ever know.

You fucking?

Come on, bring that ass.

Hello, anybody home?

Y'all giving free
HIV tests here?

Yes, would you like to take one?

We both would.

Jen here will give you
some paperwork to fill out,

and afterwards, I'll
administer your tests.

Can i fill them
out for both of us?

I'm sorry, we're
pressed for time.

Sure... but only he can answer the
questions about his sexual history.

What's your name?

Jonathon.

Jonathon, is this
your first HIV test?

I'm trying to get his in the habit of
getting tested, what is it, once a year?

Every six months, actually.

The Center for Disease Control
& Prevention recommends

getting tested as frequent
as every three months.

Damn, that's a lot.

Well with the growing
advancement in medicine,

it is believed that HIV could possibly be
prevented of we kept an eye on it,

so to speak.

Therefore, specialized
testing like prophylaxis

could be used to prevent people from
contracting the disease, if exposed to it.

Now of course,
there wouldn't be a need for any of that

if people actively practiced safe sex.

Vaginal, oral, and anal.

Although the risk with
oral sex isn't very high.

Okay, are you ready?

Open your mouth.

All done.

Now see, was that hard?

Are you ready?

Open your mouth.

Boy, would you put
that camera down?

All done.

Now it'll be about 20
minutes for the results.

Any questions?

Nope, can we go outside
and watch the festivities?

Of course.

Jen will bring you back in when
it's time for your results.

Your test results are ready.

All right gentlemen.

Now, would you like to hear your
test results together or separately?

What, no.

Can you just give us our
results so we can go?

Yeah, sure.

Jonathon, you tested negative.

Keep it strapped and
you'll stay that way.

Mr. Hamilton... you tested positive.

What?

Give me that fuckin' swab.

Here are some cards with our
pamphlets and information on the back.

Our address is on the back.

I strongly recommend that you
go down there for testing.

I can set up an appointment
now, if you like.

♪ Keep me in my heart

♪ My love has gone away

♪ And tell me true

♪ My heart is new

♪ My love has gone away

♪ It's okay, I know someday
I'm gonna be with you

♪ It's okay, I know someday
I'm gonna be with you

♪ Speak to me, my heart is free

♪ My love has gone away

♪ Tell me true

You got what?

You nasty motherfucker.

You fucking infected and you
bring that shit around me?

♪ It's okay, I know someday
I'm gonna be with you

I think you should
go get tested.

Lenny, Lenny!

Stay the fuck away
from me, all right?

There's no way we could have
predicted this would happen.

We? What do you mean, we?

You mean you.

What's that supposed to mean?

I ain't no ho.
I only been out for a year.

Who the fuck you calling a ho?

Who you been fucking
behind my back, huh?

Who the fuck you been
fucking behind my back, huh?

Nigga, you expect me to believe that
because you only been out for a year,

that I'm the only
person you've fucked?

Nigga, you need to get a serious fucking
grip if you think that I'm that stupid.

Don't touch me, don't
put your hands in my face.

What?

Or else what you gonna do, huh?

Hit me in front of
all these people?

Don't tempt me.

Yeah, run away.

Run away like you always do.

And then, he threatened to hit
me in the middle of the street.

No he didn't, child.

Yes he did.

And then he ran.

- What?
- Like a straight-up punk.

These motherfuckers keep forgetting that I'm
Reggie Luv from the motherfucking up above.

That's right.

I don't succumb to nobody.

I'm gonna get another one.

That's right, mhmm.

Reggie motherfuckin' Luv.

Work it, girl.

Reggie Luv from above.

Right on, girl.

Mm, fierce.

Work it, work it, work it.

You wanna fuck me?

Wanna fuck me hard?

Yeah, that's it.

What the fuck?

What the fuck?

Lenny get out of here,
didn't you move out?

Just as I thought,
you're a fucking ho!

Get out of here with that shit.

Get the fuck out, shut up nigga.

You think you can
just do shit to me?

Dismiss me, and expect
to get away with it.

Think he told you
to get the fuck out.

Yo man, don't put
your hands on me.

Don't touch me.

Lenny, stop.

Lenny, stop.

Lenny, stop!

Wait, Reggie honey,
open the door baby.

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

What have I done, I'm sorry.

Open the door.

Police, put
your hands behind your back.

Calm down.

Are you sure you don't
wanna give her a check?

I don't anything
of mine to bounce.

Oh, aren't you a good uncle.

It's the least I can do for her.

For allowing me to
move into her house.

That's true.

Wait right here.

You don't have enough
money in your account.

What?

There should be enough in there.

I'll figure it out.

Wait a minute.

You wrote a check
for $1,000 last week?

A thousand dollars?

What's going on with my money?

Hey, you here.

Reggie finally managed to pull you
away from that consuming ass job.

What the fuck's going on here?

You stole from me.

Stole what?

Don't play dumb.

You stole from me.

Valducci Brothers,
is what it's called.

Those are my business partners.

Bullshit!

You ain't got no business.

You ain't never had no business.

We know what the fuck is up.

Whatever happened to
you offering me support?

I meant moral support.

What difference does it make?

It makes all the difference.

You're supposed to
be my best friend,

and you pull a damn stunt on me?

Who the fuck you think you are?

Oh I don't need
to hear this shit!

You're a thief.

You're a liar and a thief.

Use your own stolen ass checks.

You ain't have no
problem when I was using

them stolen ass checks
to buy all that food,

all them linen, and
everything that you needed.

Pump your brakes,

'cause you fucked up, and
you know you done fucked up.

Now you need to pay
him his rent money.

Rent money?

This house is paid for.

That's beside the point.

Listen, you need to
pay him back, Kevin.

And how am I
supposed to do that?

Look, he's sick right now.

He's relying on you.

He doesn't need to be agitated.

Luv honey,

don't worry about it, okay?

I'm a take care of the rent.

I want you to get some rest.

Lift up your arm.

- Lift up your damn arm.
- I can't!

How do you expect to get
better if you don't even try?

- I'm trying, it's hard.
- No, you're not trying.

If you were trying, I wouldn't
be here wasting my damn time.

Not so rough.

Do you wanna do it?

Okay then.

Now... do you have to
go to the bathroom

because I am not getting up
in the middle of the night.

I don't want the blanket.

Kevin, can you
pass me the remote?

Kevin?

Kevin?

What?

Did you put my
antiretrovirals in here?

There's only three
pills in here.

And none of them look
like my antiretrovirals.

And there's some other
meds missing too.

I don't want that.

You know I have to take
my meds with a meal.

Why didn't you put them in here?

Look, I thought I did.

I don't get it.

You've done it before
and gotten it right.

Shit!

There, you got your
antivirals and everything.

Why are you acting
so stink towards me?

I cook for you, I clean for you,

I take you to the bathroom.

I wash your ass.

I'm tired of this shit!

I got a life of
my own, you know,

and I think it's time
I get it back on track.

Honey.

Going back to live with
your folks, ain't life.

For your information, I have a life
that you know absolutely nothing about.

So don't push me, honey.

Because I will show you
just how important it is.

Whatever.

Go take a nap or something.

You take a nap!

I will.

Right after I eat a little bit of this
food, and take my meds.

You go right on to sleep.

Kevin?

Kevin?

Kevin?

Kevin?

Kevin?

Kevin!

What the hell is that smell?

Oh my God, Unc, are you okay?

Are you all right?

What happened?

I hate myself!

Hello.

Hey O'Neil, how you doing?

I'm okay, just fixing
up something to eat.

How's he doing?

Oh, he's good.

His attitude is a
lot better this week.

That's good.

Have you spoken to Kevin yet?

No, I haven't talked to him yet.

He hasn't responded
to any of my messages.

I know, I hate
to keep asking you.

It's just, I haven't been
to class in three days.

I understand, O'Neil.

Believe me, I
understand, trust me.

What I'll do is, I'll go ahead and stop
by Kevin's parents' house tomorrow, okay?

O'Neil?

He's calling me,

I've got to get
this food up to him.

All right, no problem.

If you need me for anything, for anything
at all, don't hesitate to give me a call.

Thanks, bye.

I see you didn't take after
your mama in the kitchen.

But that's okay, thank you.

Thank you for everything.

Good morning, sunshine.

Hey.

What time is it?

Ooh, it's nine.

Nine o'clock?

I'm supposed to have been outta
here to meet my lab partners.

You'll make it.

That's easy for you to say.

I'll be back.

All right.

Uncle Reggie?

Oh my God, Uncle Reggie?

Jorel!

I don't know what's
wrong with him.

He's not talking,
he's not responding.

Reggie, can you hear me?

Can you understand me?

Reggie, can you hear me?

Who are you calling?

Marco.

Why you calling Marco
when you should be calling 911?

But he's a nurse.

Call 911.

You're gonna be okay.

Just try to relax.

Try to take some deep breaths.

He had a seizure.

She doesn't want
him back in the house.

Hey Luv.

Listen, I spoke to the doctors

and they wanna keep you, okay?

They just wanna run a few
more tests, all right?

Don't worry about anything.

When you get out of here, we're
gonna find you a nice home.

All right?

Come here.

Hey.

Hey buddy.

You're looking good.

How you feeling?

I see you like poetry.

Yeah, I used to write
a bit in high school.

That was a million years ago.

What?

You're a young guy.

Well, younger than
most people here.

Thanks.

I'm Ralph.

Reggie.

- Good to meet you, Reggie.
- Good to meet you too.

Come in.

Hi Mr. Hamilton, how you doing?

Girl, what you doing here?

Well, I was visiting
one of my clients

who happens to live
in the building too,

when I found out
you live here now.

So when I found that out,
I just had to pay you a visit.

Who told you I live here?

Believe it or not,
you are very popular.

Story of my life.

So, why didn't you call me?

I gave you my card and I said if
you ever need my help to call me.

Girl, I don't know.

I just don't know.

So what you up to?

On my way to the
community center.

I have a performance today.

Wait wait, let me help.

Can you pass me
that book right there?

Sure.

Poems for love.

Artsy.

- Hey girl.
- Yes.

- Can you turn me around?
- Sure.

Thank you for attending
this month's talent showcase.

Tonight, we have a new
resident who wishes to grace us

with his charisma,
uniqueness, nerve, and talent?

How you doing, Reggie?

Give a round of applause
for Mr. Reginald Hamilton.

Hi.

I'm gonna be reading
an original poem,

titled Luv Don't
Live Here Anymore.

Hi, I'm looking for Luv.

Does he live here?

That his car?

I swore I saw him
through your window.

But then again I was away, far.

But it was Luv, I'm sure.

I know that face.

His fashion sense,
that walk, his pace

that makes the girls gag,
honey, in devastation.

Never one to avoid a confrontation,
for a reputation must be upheld.

Too stubborn to see the fallacy

of people and things he
prized to the utmost degree.

Who is he, really?

Luv.

Now I'm not so sure I know.

When I risked everything
so he could grow.

So I'm here asking
this burning inquiry,

when I should be
asking, who am I?

Me.

I'm sorry for bothering you.

I didn't mean to knock.

I just remembered,
Luv don't live here.

He used to live on this block.
