The Best Man Holiday Page #3
you know... A book!
Non-fiction
is not my thing.
Besides, you could get any
biographer you wanted, right?
Yeah, but that
doesn't interest me.
People only know what
I want them to know.
Well, that's what they do. You
can't blame them, you're a star.
Well, everybody's
got a job to do.
As long as we stick to
football, we're straight.
Hello, hello!
Hey!
Merry Christmas!
Thanks for coming.
Robyn, stop it.
I'm just saying, Jordan's good
people, you should get to know her.
What's to know? She's career-obsessed
and lives on her BlackBerry.
True, but she's not some ideal
from a piece of fiction.
Julian.
Brian. Nice to meet you.
Good to see you again, Harper.
Now, her man, on the
other hand, is iconic.
Mmm. If I went that way,
that's what I'd get.
A tall, vanilla swagger latte.
I like, I like, I like.
What did...
Hi, baby!
Busted!
What's wrong with you, man?
Not now, Quentin.
Not now.
No, dude, you've
been tripping all night.
Don't...
Come here. Come here!
Hey, Candace!
You look gorgeous.
Thank you, girl.
Thank you so much.
Hi.
Hi, Robyn. How are you?
Hi, Jordan.
How's it going in there?
It's going good, no complaints.
That is going to be a big baby.
I mean, beautiful baby.
Everyone?
I can't tell you
how good it is to have
all of us under
the same roof again.
And Brian, welcome.
Thank you for having me.
I wish it could be
for the whole weekend.
Oh. Where are
you guys headed?
Oh. It's just him.
Oh.
My family's got
a place up in Vermont,
so we always get together
this time of year.
Ski, hang out by the
fireplace, stuff like that.
That sounds really nice.
Yeah, the snow and I just don't
really get along, do we?
Could have fooled me.
Ah!
Hawaii the day after Christmas.
Oh, you have to stay at the Four
Seasons in Maui. Honeymoon suite.
And which honeymoon was that?
My next one.
So, Lance, y'all making
the playoffs this year or what?
Yeah, that Atlanta
D is pretty tough.
It is tough, but we will
definitely make the playoffs.
Okay, all right.
And what about
that rushing record?
How many more
yards is it to go?
Really? We're gonna talk
about football all night?
Oh. I am so sorry, Shelby.
Please, fill us all
in on the scintillating
world of mudslinging
housewives.
- Candace.
- "Scintillating. "
Mmm. Such a big word.
Just like the TV show.
Mmm-hmm.
One hundred seventy-six.
What?
Yards for the record.
Right, Lance?
Right, yeah, 176.
Right.
You remember your
first pro yards?
Oh. Okay, I'll just leave.
Why don't you hop on that broom
and fly back out the window?
Quentin!
So, Murch, how's the
fundraising going?
Oh, uh...
We ran into a snag this week.
Really?
Mmm-hmm.
Is it Elliot?
Yeah, he's not
contributing this year.
Elliot Gibson,
the philanthropist?
Isn't he a bit
of a morality nut?
Yeah! Yeah, that's him.
My God.
Did he say why?
To hell with him, man!
We got you.
What's his usual contribution?
Two million.
Oh, hell no.
Murch, if you need anything,
just let me know.
No, no, no!
You sure about that?
You guys have done
more than enough.
Thanks.
I can handle this.
Listen, I have
a fabulous weekend planned.
And after dessert,
it's pajama time!
You know I like to sleep naked.
- Oh, God.
- Quentin.
So, about those yards, Lance.
You remember your first...
I'm sorry, can I trouble
you for the bathroom?
Of course.
Lance, could you?
Yeah.
Mmm mmm mmm.
Look at her. That waddle
brings back nightmares.
All of you men need to do your
wives a favor and get snipped.
Jesus.
You too, Robin Thicke.
Yeah, I said it.
Mia, do you have some Prosecco?
Where are those people?
Hello? Excuse me?
How did this Elliot guy
find this in the first place?
How do I know?
Is he a porn watcher?
First of all, it's not porn.
Well, I'm getting
a little excited.
Cut it out.
Get your hands off.
And 165,328,
29, 30 viewers say otherwise.
You're not making this better.
This is getting me
a little excited.
Stop it!
So, the girls are down.
Oh!
Don't you guys
look cute in your PJs!
Yeah.
Yeah, nice.
Hey, um...
We're going, right, Murch?
Oh. We were gonna go hang out with
the fellas. You don't mind, do you?
Oh. No!
Please, they got 900
channels up in here.
Plus, me and Robyn are gonna sit up and
talk about people, so...
Perfect.
Talking about people.
Oh, um, babe,
can I use your phone?
Because I can't get
a signal up in here.
My Cell?
The one I'm holding?
In my hand?
Yeah, stop!
Would you hand me that?
Are you sure that
he just smokes weed?
Are you happy?
Yes, very.
And thankful.
Whatever you want, baby.
I want you to be
a little nicer.
To everybody.
All right.
You're doing a bio
on Lance, aren't you?
What?
Oh. Harper,
please don't play dumb.
It belittles both of us.
So this is what you've
been strategizing about!
Uh. Yeah, yeah.
What do you think?
I think it's brilliant.
Have you asked him?
No, I've got to
figure out an approach.
You already got him with
that first yards question.
Just brush off those journalistic
skills and get in there.
You've got to convince him that
he needs to tell his story.
Well, that's a lot
easier said than done.
Well, just keep talking to him.
And you know what?
If you need me to,
I can work on Mia,
because you know
he'll do whatever she says.
All right, cool.
So, where's the thrilla in vanilla?
So, slim.
Is Jordan your first safari
into the enchanted jungle?
Is he serious?
How do we know that this ain't
some Django Candyland fantasy?
Come on, man. I've
dated all kinds of women.
I'm surprised she got
past all of you guys.
Who says she did?
He's just
messing with you, man.
Okay.
Ain't nobody here
been with her, man.
Not that there
wasn't an attempt, though.
What?
Oh, really?
Why would you say
something like that?
I didn't even look at you!
Shut up, Murch.
I'm watching TV.
Look, man, honestly,
we're brother and sister.
For real.
Come on, man, no worries.
It's all good.
I'd have to be
a b*tch to be concerned
about her past
like that, right?
I like him.
Do you think
Brian is going to pop
the question when
you guys get to Hawaii?
No, I don't think
we're there yet.
Armstrong, you are
such a commitment-phobe.
No, I'm not a
commitment-phobe.
I just don't do it
as often as you do.
Oh, touch, b*tch!
Jordan, this is the longest
relationship you've ever had.
Why are you being so defensive?
I am not being defensive!
So, what is it?
I just don't know
that I'm ready to...
Give up the big, black dick?
Can I get an amen
on the big, black dick?
Big, black dick.
It's big, it's black.
It just goes in your
mouth, in your ass.
You want to talk to it like it's a mic.
"Check, check. "
Oh, don't hate.
Emulate, b*tches.
You've got to talk to it.
Oh.
Hey, man, do you guys
want me to step out?
No. See that, Murch? You can't
