Why don't you just relax

and let's go with the flow

and see where this takes us.

Yeah.

Don't be so stiff,

Elston.

Come on.

You only live once.

You know, I just... I just never...

I never done anything

like this before.

I really don't know how to feel.

I mean, you're on

my mind all day.

I can smell your perfume.

I feel your touch

when I close my eyes.

Yeah.

I think about

you all day, too.

I know how you feel.

I just feel so guilty.

- But at the same time...

- It's kind of exciting.

(cell phone ringing)

Trace, Trace and Trace.

Well, sure.

I'll transfer you

right now.

And God bless you.

Excuse me, hi.

I'm here for a meeting

with Darion Jackson.

Oh, well, why do

you want to see Darion?

Just being nosey.

Well, I'm opposing counsel

for Gladie Insurance.

Kramer case.

Now, y'all know

y'all need to pay up.

Now, come on.

That woman ran smack

into Mrs. Gladie

while she was standing

there minding her own business.

Yes, minding her own business

while backing up

on a major street.

Well, the woman

has Alzheimer's.

She gets confused.

Now, how can you punish

somebody like that?

True, I'd be

confused too if I was

sending a text and eating curly fries

at the same time.

Well, see,

now you gotta understand

about the curly fries.

You gotta eat 'em

while they're hot.

You're funny.

Funny, funny like what?

I'm here to amuse you,

funny like what?

Ha-ha, just kidding.

(laughing)

You married?

See a ring

on my finger?

Get you something.

- Here's my card.

- Oh.

Oh, okay.

Oh...

Oh, yes, yes.

He'll see you now.

Last door

on the left.

- Nice meeting you, Sheila.

- Likewise.

(chuckling)

Jarvis:
I'm so glad I got

her out of my mind.

That's too much.

- (Yvette clearing throat)

- Oh.

- Are you busy?

- Am I busy?

No, I thought

you left already.

Have a seat, come on.

Thanks.

Um, yeah,

I was on my way out

but I thought I'd stop by.

Well, I'm glad you did,

I mean, I...

Look, I'm sorry for all that stuff

the other day with Raven.

It's okay, no, no, no,

really, it's okay.

I mean, I can understand

why a girl

can get all crazy

and angry over you.

Well, you know, I've been known

to break a few hearts

from time to time...

Okay, just like a man.

- Don't know when to shut up.

- A little too much?

- Mm-hmm.

- Okay, you know...

So...

So when you coming back?

Ah, I'm not sure.

You know me,

always chasing that story.

Yeah, I'm chasing you and you

chasing your career.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, um...

I guess this

is goodbye then.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, yeah.

- It's goodbye.

- It's goodbye again.

Yeah.

Well, take care of yourself.

Oh, you know me,

always

taking care of myself.

Let's...

I have an extra ticket

to the Dallas game.

Courtside.

Courtside?

- Did I stutter?

- (laughing)

Yvette, look.

Even though I would love...

and when I say love

I do mean love...

the idea of getting rid of

all my worldly possessions

and following you

to the ends of the earth.

I just can't right now.

I mean, God has called me

to a life of integrity

and that's how I gotta be.

I mean, I can't honestly give

100% to this

until I have

closure with Raven.

And, I mean, this is how I am.

Better yet...

that's how

God made me.

I understand.

That's...

that's another one of the qualities

that I love about you.

You serve it straight up.

It's just a double-edged

sword sometimes.

Take care.

Hey, Raven,

yeah, hi, yeah, it's me.

Okay, all right, look, look, look,

I need to talk...

I need to talk...

let me, can I speak?

Can I speak, though?

I need to talk to you

about something serious.

Where are we going with this

relationship?

Like, I am not gonna be your

punching bag forever.

Yeah, I just don't

wanna play games anymore.

Are you interested in trying to

make it work?

So it's over?

Well, let it be

over then, all right.

But, look, look, look, I want my

SpongeBob onesie back.

No, that's mine,

that's nonnegotiable.

Yeah, oh, yeah, that's mine.

Jarvis, look...

I miss you so much

and I'm not

leaving without you.

Not this time.

You don't have to.

Courtside it is.

(laughing)

- Okay, let's go.

- Oh yeah, we're gonna be late.

Oh, yeah!

(horn honking)

Andrew, you tell

the most fascinating stories.

I never would've guessed you were

a war hero.

Well, not exactly,

I mean, I was a military lawyer

and I served during

wartime but...

Sounds like a war hero to me.

Okay, I'll take that.

So how was your meeting?

(sighing)

You guys drive a hard bargain

around here

but honestly,

you have made it all worth it.

Those words just flow out of your

mouth so smoothly.

Keep talking.

What time's

your lunch break?

Now.

(chuckling)

Ohh, and, um...

I know the perfect place.

It's on me

since we just

took all of your money.

- Come on.

- All right.

- Oh.

- Mm-hmm.

It's been a while

since I was able

to spend time with

someone like this, you know?

Yeah, a man like you, I'm sure you

have plenty of women around.

You know, actually...

I'm not really the type

to have a lot of women around.

I'm more of a...

one-woman type of guy,

you know?

Okay.

See, why didn't

I meet you first?

This is terrible.

I would've chose you any day.

Uh, that makes

me feel good...

sort of.

So it's getting kind of late.

I think you

better go back to the office.

I have to go to the mall before Randall

gets back home.

When will

I see you again?

Again.

You'll see me soon.

Well, I hope so.

Oh, speaking of soon,

I talked to Randall

about approving your promotion.

- You did.

- Mm-hmm.

That's wonderful.

Look, don't thank me yet

but I convinced him

to give you a bonus

when the deal goes through.

We need to

make a little side deal.

Of course, what is it?

Well, when the deal goes through,

I need at least half.

Randall is so slick.

See, he has me in this

little prenup

that's so ironclad shut.

He treats me like I'm a teenager

and I'm a grown woman.

I need zeros

behind my bank account.

You know what I mean?

I got you... I guess,

you know, um...

Well, since you got

me the job, I guess I would

owe you something, you know?

Good, exactly.

I knew

you'd see it my way.

So I'm gonna have my lawyer

draw up the contracts.

Contracts?

Look, pumpkin,

let's not get business

and fun mixed up.

Okay?

You take care of me,

I'll take care of you.

(laughing)

Let's sit down here a minute.

Sure.

- Ahh...

- Ohh...

Thank you for

the wonderful lunch.

Oh, but unfortunately, I have to get back

to this hell hole.

Well, I will admit,

our firm is a lot bigger,
