- Bye, ladies!

- Marcus.
Would you like anything?

- I'm good. Thank you.

You said you don't have a lot of
time, so we can get right to it.

- I have a couple
of properties in mind

that I'd like to look at.

Not right now, but soon...
I wanna open another nightclub.

- You're selling Eden?
- No. No.

It's actually
the perfect time to expand.

- Ah, your queendom.

- Exactly.
- All hail.

- It will be twice
the size of Eden.

- How does Allen feel
about this new venture?

- Oh, he won't be partnering
with me on this one.

Just me.
- I see.

- Everything that I do
from here on out,

I do on my own.

- I do need to make sure
that everything is in place.

Every "i" dotted,
every "t" crossed.

And that, Marcus,
that's where you come in.

- Well!

- As my attorney.

We're gonna need to have
the same kind of documentation

we had in place for Eden.
- Mm-hmm.

- Liquor license,

building and remodeling
permits from the city.

And you realize a bigger club
means a larger insurance policy

for the building
and for the employees.

- Understood.

- I'm happy for you, Madam.
- Thank you.

- And as always, I
appreciate your discretion...

and attention to detail.

- Now, you know that
is the only way I work.

And there are some other details

I would really like
to pay attention to

sometime soon, Madam.

- Well, then, I'll be in touch.
- Talk soon.

- Hello, sir.

- Nobody's home.

- Who the f*ck are you?

- I'm sorry.
The door was open.

- No, it wasn't.
Now, who the f*ck are you?

- I'm a friend of
your sister, Marilyn.

- So what, you here to serve me?

- Ma'am?
- Or what, beat my a*s?

You tell that b*tch that
she is not taking my father

up out this house, you got that?
- Yes, ma'am.

-Well, you
let her know it.

She might have enough money to
bribe everybody else out there,

but she ain't got
enough money for me.

'Cuz I know sh*t.
I know plenty sh*t.

- I'm sure, ma'am.
- Yeah, yeah, sh*t.

Now, this my daddy too.

She always wanting
to put him in a home,

but he got a g*dd*mn
home right here with me!

And you let her know that.
- I see.

- She want to send you
up in here in my house,

I'm not gonna keep playing
these games with that b*tch.

She wanna go gutter,
she gonna end up in one.

She got the right b*tch.
Now, you tell her that!

- I'll have to explain
that to your sis--

- No, no, no, no, no.

Now, you get your
a*s out of my house.

You got the message.
Go deliver it.

You all right, Daddy?

- Of course, ma'am.

- This b*tch is crazy.

- Quick update. I've been
keeping an eye on Roman.

I know he still hasn't paid
you that money he owe you.

- Is he still in
town or did he skip?

- He's still here.

He's either at
home, at the casino,

or some private poker
game out in Buckhead.

- All right. Stay on him.

Do you want me to, uh,
take one of the guys over there

and send him a reminder?
Or worse?

- Ooh, I would love
that, but...not right now.

Not with the heat
I'm starting to get.

- Heat?
- I'm not worried, okay?

They have nothing.
But for now...Roman can wait.

- Okay. I'll sit tight.

I'mma keep an eye
on him, though.

But, won't move
unless you say so.

- Good. We will tend
to Roman, all right?

Just not right now.

- Yeah, I was just
looking at her.

Keep an eye on her
from a distance.

Let you know when I
think it's time to move.

- Gotcha, Boss.
Standing by for Daddy duty.

- Hey.
- Hi.

- Well, you will be happy to
know that my nephew said yes.

- Nephew?
- Are we still acting

like you don't know
who I'm talking about?

We doing that?
- Hm, . Him.

- Yeah, him.
Him will be here tomorrow.

And I want you to
show him the ropes.

- Really?
- Yes.

What, do you not want to?

- Fine, ah, I am just not
interested like you think.

- Okay.
- I'm not.

- All right.
- Oh, okay.

Whatever, girl.

He's a good guy, all right?
- Okay, if you say so.

- I know so.

- Okay.
- Okay.

I'll be in my office.
Thank you.

- It's gonna be 500.

I told her, "You want
me to pick you up?

Guess what, it's gonna be fine."

- What the--

- I know that ain't no
m*therf*cking junior dancer

walking to the back.

- Is this n*gga pissing?

- Yo b*tch a*s
do know junior dancers

go on the other side, right?

- n*gga, you can't hear?

- What's going on?

- He walked his
b*tch a*s up in here.

- Hey, uh uh, stop.

When you start making
this kind of money,

then you can come on this side.

Until then, take your
a*s on the other side.

Thank you.

-Do that sh*t
again and I'mma f*ck you up.

- Face, calm down.

It's not even that
serious, okay?

It's a mistake.

You all ready for roll call?
-Yes, ma'am.

- Move, Fuego. I know your a*s

didn't bring
those f*cking donuts in here.

That sh*t ain't money, okay?

We here to make
money, eat later.

- I know.
-Thank you.

- I'm sorry.

And you know we
still need to talk.

- Yes, Madam.

- Why you ain't dressed?
What the f*ck is wrong with you?

- I'm good.

- What the f*ck is wrong?
- Nothin'.

- All right.
You'll tell me.

Where is Doc?

Look, get y'all's
sh*t together, okay?

Let's get out here
and get this money.

- Yes--
- Yes, Madam.

- Madam?
- Hm?

- Little fat man is here.
He wants to talk.

- Let him in.

-Piece?

You'll get it back
when you leave.

- Gene...
- Madam.

Good to see you.

Think we can talk
alone for a minute?

- I think you should get to
the reason why you're here.

Time is money.

- Okay, I'll cut straight to it.

I wanted to give you an
opportunity to reconsider.

- Why would I do that?

- I've been working on this
huge multi-property deal.

I want you to be a part of it.

You gotta admit,
we were a good team.

And this place is
the final piece.

- I need you.

I need you to get on board.

- This is a f*ck' joke, right?

You have
to be kidding me.

- Look, I know you all up
in your feelings about

what happened before.

We don't need to
go down this road.

We got history.
We can make this work.

Look, I'll go through the books,

figure out what I owe you
from before, and we can--

- No, you won't. You won't.

And you don't even
believe that sh*t.

That's the same lame-a*s
line you gave me before.

The only difference is
now, Gene, I'm the boss.

And what I say goes.

And I say no. Period.

- See, this?

This is exactly what
I'm talking about.

That old angry
Black woman syndrome.

Maybe Allen can talk
some sense into you.

Sometimes you women get
all caught up emotionally

over business matters.

That's why you usually don't
make good business partners.

It's all that estrogen.

- And there he goes.

Same old Gene.

Little fat male chauvinist.

- Madam...you don't wanna
start this w*r with me.

- I'm not starting it.
I'm winning.

Now, I think it's time
for you to get the f*ck out.

Stop wasting my time, Gene.

- I'm not done talking.

- You heard her.
It's time to go.

- What? I'm supposed to be
afraid of

your little l*sbian muscle
over here?

- Oh, don't be afraid,
Gene, be smart.

- You know, I really don't feel
like breaking a sweat tonight.

She said what she said. Leave.

You been asked multiple
times to leave the premises.

You are now trespassing.

You have 30 seconds
to leave the building,

or you'll be treated
as a burglar.

See? I gotta make sure
that there's a record of you

being asked to leave.

That way, in case I
have to sh**t you, Gene--

which I would enjoy--
I won't go to jail.

- This ain't over.

- For your sake, it better be.

Don't get buried out back.

Now get the f*ck out
of my club, Gene.

-I see why you can't
stand that m*therf*cker. sh*t!

You know he hates it when you
call him that little fat man.

- I do.

Why do you think
I keep doing it?

f*ck him.
- I am here for it.

m*therf*cking girl boss.

- All hail the queen.

-It's about to get
hot up in here tonight, okay?

And the fellas
are gonna be on the floor

dancing for your pleasure.

- Come to sugar mama,
baby, down here.

Yes. Mm.

- Ooh, yes! Ooh!

You know how I like it.

Come one, put some umph into
this, baby.

What you doing?

- Good evening, Ms. Patty.
- Hey!

- Do you mind if I borrow
Babyface for just a second?

He'll be back.

- Okay.
- Come here.

- What the f*ck is going
on with that, Face, huh?

Your a*s would've been there all
night if I didn't rescue you.

- I mean, I give her extra
attention here and there,

and she is extra
generous financially.

- Don't bullshit me.

What the f*ck is going on?

- All right, she pays
for my car, my apartment.

sh*t, extra cash when I need it.

- Do you have to jump
when she says jump?

Look, now, you can continue
being miserable as a kept man,

or you can start to
pay your own way.

You are too old for this sh*t.

- I know. I don't really know
how to do anything else.

- I can throw you
in the private parties

with the rest of the guys.

You will make more than enough
money to take care of yourself.

- All right.

I'll end things
with her tomorrow.

- Why wait?
- Honestly?

I have clothes and
stuff at her place,

and I don't want her to
bleach or burn my things.

You know that b*tch crazy.

- I know. All right.

I'm glad that that's settled.

Go out there and
make us some money.

Hey, let her down easy, okay?

She is one of my regulars
and I do want her coming back.

- Gotcha.
- Go make some money.

- You know that
sh*t ain't allowed.

- Sorry, Madam.

- You good?
- Yeah. I'm good.

- Have you seen her?
- No.

I ain't no weak-a*s n*gga.

Just watching that sh*t

splattered all over
the damn wall...

That was his f*cking
brains getting blasted

out the back of his head.

Look, I done been
through some sh*t.

I'm a street kid.
I ain't got no daddy.

My mother was on drugs and sh*t.

Straight-up stereotype
of a Black man in America.

But his f*cking brains?

- Was that your first time?
- First time?

- Doc...my grandmother was
the ultimate queen, okay?

She ran everything.
Taught me everything I know.

My daddy was a gangster.

- Yeah. I know.
- Okay.

Well, what you
don't know is my daddy

went to prison when I was 14.

My grandmother got very sick.

So...I started
pimpin' hoes at 14.

- Wow.
- The sh*t that I've done...

the sh*t that I have seen...

me sh**ting that m*therf*cker
in the back of his head was me

doing that n*gga a favor, okay?

m*therf*cker lucky I wasn't
in a t*rture kind of a mood.

That m*therf*cker came
after what's mine.

That sh*t sends me.
You are mine, okay?

- Thanks, Madam.
- No, all y'all n*gg*s are mine.

The kind of money we make, the
way we look out for each other?

- That's right.
I mean, I'm a real-a*s n*gga.

- I know.
- I'd ride and die for you.

- I know that.

- Me, all the guys in the
damn locker room, like,

for real--Midnight,
Face, me, Fuego.

Just don't hold that
sh*t against me. Like--

- Look, it is over, okay?

It's over.

- Look, if it come down to it...

I'll take care of her myself.

Just to show you
where I stand at.

- That's good to know.
But I got her.

Let's get back inside.

Show these m*therf*ckers
why we are number one.

Put this sh*t out.

That's some whack-a*s weed.

- Midnight, what are you doing?

- I can't do it, Madam.
- What do you mean?

- Look, I went to the doctor.

And they gon' tell me
I gotta stop beefing.

- Why?

- I guess my sh*t's
starting to die.

- Let me see.

- Madam, I don't
know what to do.

This is my money.
This is my life.

- I know, but Night,
think about it.

You could lose your d*ck, okay?
Stop tying it off.

- What am I supposed to do?
Just not get paid?

- Night!

- Nah, it's too much
money out there.

I'm getting this money.

- Okay, um, try this.

Just don't keep it tied
off for as long, okay?

Look, I've seen
this sh*t happen.

And you can
actually lose your d*ck.

- Okay.
-I mean it.

- I got you.
Now, can I finish?

- Look, if this sh*t gets
worse--

- Madam, I got you.
Now, can I finish?

- All right.

And give it up!

Give it up for these
blazing hot brothers, them.

Bambaclat!

- Damn.

- What the f*ck is that?
- I'm sorry.

- You were back
there for two hours.

Did this b*tch not pay you?
- No.

- Tell me why and tell

- She's a judge.

She's handling a case
with my baby mother.

- n*gga, you not paying
your child support?

- I'm trying.

- I don't like the
IRS in my sh*t.

Pay that b*tch and get
her off your f*cking back.

- But she spends the money
on red bottoms and sh*t.

- That is the small
f*cking picture.

Who gives a f*ck

This is the big picture.
You see this sh*t?

This is the big f*cking picture.

So you brought a
judge into my sh*t.

And you f*cking her

- Yes.
- Really?

Oh. Okay. Okay.

It's cool. Go home.

And pay that b*tch.
- Yes, Madam.

I just won't let her back in.

- No. Let her in.

- Did she valet?

-Yes.

- Okay. Okay.

Keep on doing this sh*t.

- Hello, Marilyn?

I know you got Daddy.

I'mma give you 24 hours to get
him back over into this house
