Two Can Play That Game Page #8

Synopsis: When it comes to matters of the heart, keeping her man happy and committed is all in a day's work for Shanté Smith. Shanté is so adept at navigating the waters of romance that her best girlfriends Diedre, Karen and Tracye depend on her for advice whenever "man trouble" clouds the horizon. But when Shanté's boyfriend Keith is caught red-handed stepping out with a co-worker, Shanté institutes her "Ten Day Plan" to get her man in line. Whether its sexy lingerie or good home cooking, Shanté has an arsenal of weapons designed to bring a man to his knees...and back to her. She's not above playing the damsel in distress or using the ever-reliable local grapevine to get Keith's attention. It's all good, because getting her man back - by any means necessary - is all that matters. Unfortunately the happy ending that Shanté expects goes sideways when Keith begins following the advice of his buddy Tony, who brings a player's perspective to the games girls play. In this comedic battle of the sexes,

you followed certain rules

when a brother messes up

to get him back.

But I guess I didn't consider that

when it comes to love,

there are no rules.

Hook me up a martini.

What's up, girl?

Not a damn thing, girl.

This place is so tired.

I was just putting the moves

on this fine-ass man.

And he did not even bite.

That sh*t just does not

happen to me.

He just kept going on about his

ex-girlfriend. She was so perfect.

Excuse me.

Can I ask you some questions?

Sure.

Now, if I'm right about you,

all the answers will be yes.

You think so?

Yes.

Do you like basketball?

Yes.

Do you find me attractive?

Yes.

Do you think I find you attractive?

Yes.

Can I just ask you one more?

Think a woman who thought

she'd control her man with rules

could get him to come back?

No.

Unless...

Unless he really loves her.

Like to dance?

You didn't answer

my question.

I had to cut loose for a second.

Gonna tear it up.

Come on, cheer up!

Call. Damn!

Work the chocolate.

Ah!

Michael!

Holler.

You like that.

That's right.

Loser.

Memories!

Can you smack ass

on film?

She sleep with you the first night?

Yes.

Oh.

That was different, dog.

You got a big dick.

Sorry.

Don't think God gave me

this gap for nothing.

Why you stare at my face?

I know about women.

I got a mama, nine sisters, and a cat.

I got that man.

The plan works.

You can't even put the finger

in the ass, make her holler.

You can't make her drop it.

- And cut!

- Cut.
