The Best Man Holiday Page #4
even tell what happened.
Or, if something did
happen, you can't tell.
Oh, so I should be okay
knowing that my wife
might have been the headmaster?
Well, you did marry a stripper.
Yeah, but that
didn't matter to me.
If it didn't
matter to you then,
why in the hell is it
mattering to you now?
Could you just put your phone
away, please? Thank you.
Well, now I have two
million dollars to raise.
And I have two little girls!
What if Keisha and Kelly decide
they want to dance for money?
You did marry a stripper.
Would you stop
saying that, please?
You married a stripper.
You know what?
We can solve it
with one question.
What's that?
Which one of them,
either Shelby
or Candace is better
at rocking the mic?
Yeah, I don't remember.
What?
What?
Murch, come on, man.
Every man remembers
his personal best headmaster.
Co-sign.
Yeah, and he should know.
He's been with white chicks.
They can do it.
Murch?
Shelby.
Word?
Was it even close?
No, not really, no.
Murch.
I know.
Hell no, it ain't close.
Amen.
Really?
Look, I'm just saying.
If Candace
ain't the best at
rocking the mic...
I didn't say that. I didn't
say she's not the best.
She can rock the mic.
She's rocking the mic.
She-mutt rocks it, right?
Yes, she does...
I'm done.
I'm saying,
if she's not the best
at rocking the mic,
then maybe she didn't.
Good point.
So, Mia.
What do you think Lance is gonna
do with all of his new free time?
Oh, you better get him some golf
lessons or he will drive you crazy.
Look, he can drive
me crazy all he wants.
Plus, the children would
love to have him around.
It's gonna be nice.
Has he ever thought about
writing his memoirs?
He'd never get that bored.
Yeah, you're probably right,
but you know what?
He's got such a legacy,
and I think people
would love to hear his story.
Your story!
I don't know, it just seems like,
with him retiring, it would be
the perfect time to reflect.
Mmm.
Yeah, maybe you're right.
Maybe it is.
Nice move, nice.
Didn't Shelby and
Mia pledge together?
Yes, line sisters.
Line sisters.
Mmm-hmm.
That's why her ass is up here.
Exactly.
Mia and Lance, they take
their Greek life seriously.
What is that, "Friendship
is essential to the soul"?
That's right.
Along with manhood, scholarship,
perseverance and uplifting.
- In case y'all didn't know.
- Okay.
You think your kids
are gonna pledge?
Ain't no think.
Sullivan has been
frat over 100 years,
and we're gonna
keep that moving.
Oh! Nice.
So, tradition, that's one of
your main principles, then?
I didn't say nothing about that.
All right, everybody, then.
If you had to boil
your principles down
into three words,
what would they be?
For me, it would be creativity,
stability and partnership.
Tradition, family and love.
Ancestry,
perseverance,
children.
Money, b*tches,
p*ssy and getting head.
Mother...
That's four, first off.
Money, b*tches,
p*ssy/getting head.
Mmm mmm mmm.
God, family, football.
In that order?
In that order.
L-Boogie!
I thought I'd hit
the trail myself.
Show me the way?
Well, the kids look beautiful.
Getting big.
You must be proud.
Yeah, no doubt, man.
It's the best thing
I could've ever done.
Are you excited?
Me?
Yeah, I'm excited.
Nervous.
Yeah, Robyn and I
were having trouble
conceiving. I don't
know if you heard.
Yeah, I did hear something about that.
Was it low sperm count?
What? No, no.
No, I'm good.
It's nothing to be ashamed of.
I'm not ashamed.
It's just a little bit more of a
challenge than we anticipated.
Are you all right?
I think I got a pebble
in my shoe or something.
You're not the
author of this, man.
What do you mean?
You know, Faith was a breech baby.
For real?
Yeah, no doubt.
29 hours of labor,
and my little baby girl wasn't even
breathing when she came into this world.
Longest 15 seconds of my life.
But our faith.
Yeah, God's always
got a plan, man.
Just got to trust everything's
going to work out.
I got a team meeting.
Let's do this.
I'll give you a head start.
You were amazing this morning.
I thought we were gonna
wake up the whole house.
You know how much I love you?
Yes, I know how
much you love me.
No, seriously,
do you know how much?
I know that
you're gonna be late.
Wow.
Always on a schedule.
That's me.
I can't help it.
And I love who you are.
Believe me, your whole strong,
independent,
Olivia Pope thing is very sexy.
But sometimes you act
like you don't need me.
I don't.
Everybody needs
somebody, Jordan.
I'll call you when I land.
Yeah. Or maybe I
should just text you.
Is that better?
No. Call me.
Harper, I'm gonna need you
to go to the store later.
Okay, sure.
What's going on?
slipping on some ice.
Huh.
Too late to find
a replacement, so...
Well, isn't that a lot of work?
I'm fine, Harper.
Okay.
I'll go get dressed.
Thank you.
Mmm-hmm.
So, what's Harper
been working on?
Anything new?
Quentin, you're sure you
got the Thai basil, right?
Yes, man! You told me
for like the 20th time.
I'm just saying.
God!
Robyn's real specific.
Plus, you can't tell
a pregnant lady sh*t.
You got a point there.
Yeah, man. Y'all getting your
balls back for Christmas or what?
Married folk.
Anyway, shoot.
She's supposed to be
on maternity leave.
Here she goes cooking
a four-course meal.
Good for her, man.
She's got Jordan here, man.
She isn't going to be outdone.
Not in the kitchen.
That's her arena.
It's not even like that.
Yeah, it is.
There's hell of a tension.
Man, they should drop the gloves
and start smacking each other.
I hope they show
a titty or something.
No question.
I'm just playin', man.
I know you ain't talking.
Between your wife and your ex, it's
like what, Mob Wives up in here.
You need to have
a pay-per-view event.
Not a bad idea. Maybe that's
the way you can close that
two-million gap you got.
I got it.
Hold up.
I got to take this.
Hold that, hold that.
Hi. Hi.
Hello?
Cute little fuchsia phone you got.
Two million.
That's a big nut.
Yeah, man.
Well, how are you doing, shorty?
What do you mean?
You cool?
Yeah.
Money-wise?
Because of the credit card.
No, I'm cool.
It always happens.
I got to call the company, because
it's getting embarrassing, but I'm...
No, this is embarrassing, man.
I'm your man.
Look, you got a baby coming,
and if you need something,
you talk to your friends.
Yeah, I'm good.
Good looking-out.
I appreciate it though.
You're a sensitive brother.
For real. I'm straight.
Hurry up, Murch.
What are you doing?
What am I paying you for?
I'm "TV's Most Notorious. "
The endorsements
should be rolling in.
Notorious Martinis.
Notorious Heels.
Notorious Bubble Bath.
Why am I thinking of this?
Hold on.
Kennedy, please stop eating!
What is wrong with you?
