Look, I'm not trying

to get in the middle--

And I really don't wanna hear

anything you gotta say, okay?

He has a girl up there,

doesn't he?

I'm just trying

to have a good time.

Do you promise to behave?

Look, you promise--

I'm not taking you in there

- unless you promise.

- I promise.

We can turn this party up,

we can get...

(sighs)

All right.

- Shot, lime, lick, salt, shot, lime

- Over over...

Ah. Come on.

- Lick, salt, shot, lime, lick...

- Over over

- Over

- Lick, salt, shot, lime...

How you doing, my man?

These three are with me.

Chris:

Hey, you all right.

- Yo yo yo, Dallas.

- Okay, he said I'm with him.

She's good, man.

Dallas, yo,

where the f*** you been?

- (laughs) What's up?

- Lonzo:
Are you crazy?

Look, man, don't worry about it.

I got it under control.

He's gonna kill you.

Yo, man,

what took you so long?

- Rule #1, baby.

- A'ight.

(laughs)

What?

Lick, salt, shot, lime,

lick, salt, shot, lime...

- You responsible.

- I got it.

Take a bite, boy...

Yo yo, we here

at 1080 holding it down.

Shouts to my man Prime.

Had an outstanding season,

balled his ass off

this year and of course...

Made the all-star team.

(cheers, applause)

You know, sometimes we say

growing up,

it's important to have

someone that you look up to,

like a role model.

And in my case,

that was my best friend.

You deserve everything

you have, my man.

You've got a lot of good sh*t

coming your way.

Yo, man, nice speech.

Come on, seriously.

We've been at this thing for a while.

And I know we make it look easy,

but the sh*t is really pretty hard.

You know what I'm saying?

Hey, but we work hard,

so we can play hard.

- (hip-hop music playing)

- (cheers, applause)

I'm gonna go

to the ladies room real fast.

- Okay, you know where it is?

- I'm sure it's in the back somewhere.

Yeah, back to the right.

Tippy-toe, tippy-toe,

tippy-toe...

Mmm! Mmm!

- F*** that sh*t.

- Hey hey.

- No, move, Lonzo.

- Don't start.

You think I'm gonna stand here

and let him disrespect me like that?

- Don't start, Autumn.

- Please. Please.

You need to chill. I'm about

to throw you up outta here.

Kalif, get the f*** outta here.

You think you running sh*t?

You ain't running nothing.

You just like one of Prime's hos.

Always on his dick,

even when he treats you like sh*t.

Yeah, and what you need to do--

take care of your babies, okay?

- What is it now?

- You leave my family out of this!

Three babies

by two different baby mamas?

- F*** you, b*tch!

- Get the f*** outta here, Autumn.

- No, you don't tell me what to do.

- The f*** you talking about?

- Me and you are done! It's over.

- Oh, really? Really?

- We've been done.

- And how am I supposed to know that?

Because you were

man enough to tell me?

And we both know

that didn't happen.

So, what, I can't come toast

the great Optimus Prime?

- Is that it?

- What is wrong with you, Autumn?

- Get her outta here, China.

- Get off me!

Her sh*t so good,

you gotta shame me

in front of all

these f***ing people?!

- Get your crazy ass outta here!

- F*** you!

(humming)

(phone ringing)

- (beeps)

- Hello?

- (music playing)

- Hi, Grandma, just checking on you.

Skylar, why are you

calling me from a party?

Oh God, you should see this place.

It's amazing.

It's like a million

beautiful people here.

- What's wrong with that?

- I don't know.

- Woman:
...fabulous in that dress.

- Listen to me, baby.

You can't let anyone

steal yourjoy.

Woman:
If he'd just look my way tonight,

he's so gonna get it.

Woman #2:

Wasn't he with someone?

Who? Little Miss Muffet?

She can't keep a man like Prime.

I saw how excited you were to go to

that party, so if you're there, be there.

- (chattering)

- Make them remember your name.

No, I'm just gonna

come home a little earlier.

It better not be

because it's time for me

- to take those blood-thinner pills.

- No, ma'am.

(sighs) Honestly,

I'd just rather be there than here.

All right, baby.

I'll see you in a little while.

- (beeps)

- Hmm.

Strike a pose,

strike a pose, strike a pose

Strike a-- strike a--

strike a-- strike a pose

Touch your toes, touch your

toes, touch your toes...

- Hey, you back.

- Long line at the bathroom.

- Sorry.

- Prime:
All right, no problem.

(chuckles)

Everything okay?

- You look like something's wrong.

- No, everything's okay.

I'm gonna leave, actually.

But I thought you were

having a good time.

I am.

I'm having a great time.

I don't like leaving my grandmother

by herself for a long time.

- Mmm.

- Sorry.

- Are you sure?

- Yeah. I'm sorry.

All right.

Let me walk you out.

You don't have to walk me out.

It's okay.

You know what?

It's your party,

enjoy it. I'll be okay.

Just call me tomorrow?

Shake it like a tambourine,

juicy like a tangerine

Glad I got ahold of teen,

yeah, she a beauty queen...

- A'ight.

- Juicy like a tangerine

- Glad I got ahold of teen...

- Yeah.

- (sniffling)

- (hip-hop music playing)

(crowd chattering)

(sniffles)

- Are you okay?

- I'm fine.

I'm sorry, I just--

I saw you crying.

No. I'm sorry.

I just-- I had a bad night so...

- Sorry.

- Are you Prime's new girl?

No, we're just friends.

- (car approaches)

- Mmm.

(sighs)

You seem like a sweet girl.

Be careful.

(sniffles)

Autumn:

Thank you.

(R&B music playing)

Oh oh

I'm tired of being alone

When a girl ain't my own

to call "baby"

My baby

Been looking high and low

No matter where I go

Hey, lady, I can't find my lady

So if you see her

Could you let me know?

'Cause I need her

Before I walk

out the door, hey!

I think I'm falling in love

on this dance floor

Tonight tonight

The way you move...

Let me find out

if Prime is a foodie.

(chuckles)

I'm starving.

- Katalina:
Okay, what do we have?

- Let's see.

- We could make sandwiches.

- (both groan)

- Not so much.

- What's that?

Jackpot! Lasagna.

- Hold on, there we go.

- Thank you.

Nice. You want some wine?

- Yes, please.

- (beeps)

Figure out how this works.

All right.

Look at you, knowing your way

around a kitchen.

- (laughs)

- That's hot.

- You know how to cook too?

- Tsss!

There isn't much I don't know

how to do, Lonzo.

- Thought you'd know this by now.

- There, you see, you see?

You can't just be sexy, can you?

Huh-uh.

You gotta be cocky too.

Hey, I'm not being cocky.

I'm just telling the truth.

- Right.

- Seriously though, I actually did study

under some of the top chefs

in Paris for like a year.

- Mmm. I love France.

- Yeah?

I love it.

I shot a film there a few years ago.

I swear, the food there is like--

- Oh, it's just so good.

- Mm-hmm.

- It's delicious.

- Yes, my mom firmly believes

that a woman should

be able to cook for her man.

Sounds like you have

a smart mother.

(chuckles)

You have no idea.

You're absolutely beautiful.

You know that?

Thank you.

- And you can cook?

- (laughs)

(sighs)

Skylar.

Just wanted

to give you a call,
