There's a lot of songs on that album.

- #When-# No, I can't sing.

- Just let me have a little bit.

- #What you gonna do when they-#

- # Hurt you #

#Where you gonna go

when they lie to you #

#Who you gonna call

then run to #

#When you know your life ain't right ##

So, uh, you and Dutch ever dance to me?

Um, Dutch and I dance

to a lot of your music.

Right.

Stop it.

Monica, come on. Stop it.

- So tell me. How long you know Monica?

- We just met.

Let's dance.

So, Dutch told me that you,

him and Kevin...

were like the Three Musketeers

back in the day.

Yeah. The scholar,

the baller and the flirt.

So, now, you are the scholar?

Guess again, baby.

# Wish I could find the right girl #

You ever wonder why Ryan Chambers...

would hit on a Southern belle

like yourself?

- At the time, yes.

- Love 'em or leave 'em.

You know what they say

about a woman scorned.

The same thing they say about

an assistant D.A. running for office.

Could we get on with this, please,

Detective?

- I knew something was wrong. I just

didn't know what. - Ah.

Hey, Val, come on.

Boy, I'm coming.

- You can't rush perfection.

- I know that's right.

- Patience.

- That's a virtue, right?

That's right. Patience.

Uh-oh.

Where did you and Monica go?

Come on.

We didn't go anywhere.

I told you.

I went outside to the sculpture garden

with Kevin and the fellas.

- Mm-hmm.

- Yeah, right.

Who's the one there dancin'

all close with Ryan Chambers?

- Oh, please!

- Yeah. That's all right.

- Jealousy is a strong aphrodisiac.

- Look at you.

- Baby, come on.

- Mm-hmm. You on my list.

Yes, I wanna know

why you didn't join church today.

- I'll join next week. Move your arm.

- You gonna join next week?

- You said we wasn't gonna talk about

that again. - I lied.

- I will join next week.

- Not because I told you.

Val, why you gotta

ruin the mood like this?

It's important. I wanna know

if somethin' bothering you.

Nothing is bothering me. I was in

a good mood until you started all this.

What is that supposed to mean?

Noth-Nothing.

Nothin'. I'm-

I got a lot on my mind right now

with the pay cut and everything.

I'm just, you know-

I'm trying to figure some things out.

We can tighten it up.

I'll skip a few pedicures.

Baby, how would you feel-

You know...

what would you think if-

- if- if, you know, like-

- What is it, baby?

Maybe I'm not the man...

you think I am, you know?

The man you want me to be.

Maybe I'm not always the woman

you want me to be either.

Come here.

Look at me.

No matter what happens...

you know that I love you, right?

You know?

Dutch, wait a minute, baby.

You're scaring me.

- Is somethin' wrong?

- No.

No. No.
