Two Can Play That Game Page #7

What's happening?

What are you doing here

with Conny?

I hadn't heard from you,

so I took matters into my own hands.

You said test the waters.

Let's just say

brother's swimming tonight.

So you showed up with her

knowing that I would be here?

I didn't know you'd be here.

The truth is

I'm tired of your bullshit.

I'm a good man. It's time for me

to explore my options.

Keith, hon, let's dance.

Option no. 1.

"Hon"? Uh-uh.

Conny, may I speak

to you for a second?

Sure.

Thanks.

What are you doing?

What do you mean?

What are you doing with Keith?

He's my man.

Oh! He's not acting like your man.

He would if he didn't have a little hooch

running behind him.

I don't appreciate that.

Why are you calling me names?

It's a little junior high.

Keith is here because he wants to be.

I didn't force him.

It's his decision,

so don't take your man frustrations

out on me. Okay?

"Okay?"

No, she didn't. No, this trick-ass b*tch

did not just go there.

But you know what? She's right.

When your man messes up,

deal with him, not the woman.

There's nothing worse than two women

fighting over a man. Not ladylike.

But you know what?

I don't like this b*tch.

That's what I'm talking about.

Work it out.

Okay, I admit.

That's not how you handle it.

Back it up.

This is how you really handle it.

Keith is here because he wants to be.

I didn't force him.

It's his decision,

so don't take your man frustrations

out on me. Okay?

Get it together.

We need you over here.

I'll be right there.

Come here for a minute.

Can you keep him occupied

till I get back?

How you ladies doing?

- Fine.

Uh, Tony?

Yeah?

Give me a hand with this.

- Yeah.

These are Miller girls.

My man, Tony.

Which one you want?

Give me Snowflake.

Then I'm Frosty.

Snowflake, don't get too close.

You might melt.

Because it's hot.

Why didn't you tell us

you were having problems?

You let him act a fool

in front of you like that?

Yo, Keith.

Spotlight's on you, dog.

She looking?

Mm-hm. Check it out.

You want me to handle this?

Breaking it down.

I'm breaking her down?

Why let him do that?

Want me to handle this for you?

I'd just break down and cry.

You want me to yank his ass?

I don't care. I'll straight

yank his ass. You want me to?

What are you gonna do?

What you doing, b*tch?

See why you don't tell

your girlfriends?

They'll heighten the situation

by panicking, and you will too.

You want me to yank his ass?

No, Diedre. It's okay.

I will pull jack moves on that fool.

I done fought fools way bigger.

No, Diedre, it's okay. I'll handle it.

I got the situation under control.

He's just venting now.

Let him have his fun.

No. No. No.

No, we'll have none of that.

No! Uh-uh-uh!

They don't know

Diedre fear.

Once again, if you don't want

your man back,

to hell with him. Keep on stepping.

But if you want him back

and behaved,

you must do some strange things.

Excuse me, ladies. I'll be right back.

Pay attention, this'll go fast.

Intensify your game

by finding a man.

A fine one. But you need

to recruit him quickly.

Where is it?

Oh, right here. Great.

Desperate times call

for desperate measures.

Yes. Ha-ha-ha!

The old damsel-in-distress trick.

Works every time.

Need some help?

No, I'm fine. Thank you.

Not cute enough.

Hey, need some help?

No, my boyfriend should

be coming any second.

Okay.

Not smooth enough.

Everything all right?

That's our man.

I've seem to have gotten a flat tire.

That's easy.

Do you have a spare?

That little old thing in the back?

Yeah.

It is? I got one of those.

All right. Let me pull over.

Yes.

After you've recruited

your man, get him a drink.

Yeah, she got him a drink.

Don't worry about that, dog.

You just do your thing.

She wanna

play hardball, huh?

I'm about to turn up

the heat up in here.

Hey, hey, baby.

Would you like to dance?

I'd love to.

Take off, man.

That's a sexy style you got.

Don't worry about him.

He's like a child, begging

for attention. Ignore him.

That little performance over there

is just to get your attention.

Doesn't matter what he's doing.

Direct your attention to him.

Doesn't matter what he says.

Be attentive.

Laugh at his jokes.

Act like you are having a ball.

I said, "Who do you

think I am? Jim Carrey?"

So sexy

the way you did that.

I'll set it off in here if they don't

bring me some wings.

Well, what is this?

Oh, no.

That's white people sh*t.

We need some meat.

Hey, man.

All right, sweetie.

She hasn't moved.

- You're in trouble.

Why?

If she was dancing, that'd be fine.

You can dance with anybody.

But she's talking to him.

That's personal.

She trying to get to know him.

Raise the stakes

by going to a quiet corner.

Would you like to go inside?

Sure.

Great.

Where did they go?

She went in the house.

In the house?

With the old boy.

No, man.

You are so funny.

Ahem. Ahem.

Can I talk to you

for a minute, please?

Sure. Would you excuse me,

Calvin?

Sure. I'll go get us drinks.

Yeah, get drinks.

What's with talking to him?

Trying to make me jealous?

I am not.

I want to talk to him.

I'm not into playing games.

You're not?

You are the queen of games.

You play more games

than the damn NBA.

He is mad at you.

It's getting hot.

Time for the coup de grce.

That's the French term

for "f*** him up."

Keith, I gotta go.

Oh, no. Hold on.

What's this for?

No reason.

What do you mean?

I'm carrying it just in case.

Just in case what?

I know she'll sleep with him.

Everybody has

condoms nowadays.

Why does she have it in her purse?

Decoration.

She won't use it.

She sleep with you on the first date?

Yes.

Oh.

It's a lot, but if you do this right,

you'll never have to again.

So stick it out.

You know what? We need to talk.

Excuse me, Calvin.

You're not leaving.

Don't control me.

I just don't want you to go.

This isn't about that.

You don't care about me or you wouldn't

have been getting your groove on.

And to add insult to injury,

you're here with Conny.

So excuse me. I'm leaving.

Shant.

Keith, I want to go.

If you walk out that door

with him,

I'm going home with Conny.

If you feel you have to control me

by going home with Conny,

go right ahead.

Do what you gotta do.

But no matter what you decide,

I'm walking out that door.

Gotta go.

You're taking a gamble.

He might sleep with Conny.

But my guess is he won't.

He'll be at your house,

waiting before you get there.

So take your time.

Well, good night, Calvin.

Sure you don't want me to come up?

I'm tired.

But thanks for following me home.

No problem.

Take care.

Okay, this is it.

Prepare for a night of heat.

When you open the door,

your man should

be waiting on the couch for you.

With flowers.

Keith?

Keith.

Hello, this Miller residence?

Food delivery. Miller residence.

No, um, next door.

Oh, next door. Next door, okay.

I know what you're thinking.

The sh*t didn't work, right?

Well, maybe you're right.

I just thought that
