Pride Page #2
It's not happening anymore
so let's not talk about it, okay?
The only thing that really, really matters is
that you're getting a divorce from Jack.
After that, everything's gonna be just fine.
Excuse me, sir. My name's Jim Ellis.
City sent me down here to...
Excuse me. Sir.
This is the Foster Rec Center, right?
Trish, you don't have to cry.
What's the sign say?
-lt don't say nothing at all, man.
-First of all, I'm not your man.
If I were your man, that'd imply I was funny
Iike one of those sister-boys or something.
I'm far from being one of those sister-boys.
So, if you're in the market for one,
I suggest you go downtown
or move to California.
'Cause ain't no funny here.
All right, whatever.
Like I said, city sent me down here
to pack up this place.
'Cause they're closing it down
in a few months and...
Told me to be here at 9:.00 so...
What the clock say?
-It's broken.
-Once again, I didn't ask you that.
-What the clock say?
-Man, it don't say nothing at all. It...
-What is your problem, dude?
-What's my problem?
-What's my problem?
-Yeah, what is your problem? I'm...
First of all, I'm gonna tell you
what my problem is.
You came in here and interrupted my story,
and that ain't cool.
ever since this place was built.
And the first I hear
about them tearing it down is right now.
Oh, it ain't like I didn't see it coming.
But they could have gave me a heads up,
you know.
You get my point?
'Cause I am head of maintenance.
Yeah, you doing a hell of a job.
Look, where do I start, man?
Just tell me where I start.
Why don't you go ask the city?
They the one hired you.
Damn.
Look at this damn stuff.
God bless this space.
You sleeping here now?
Or it just happen to be part of your job?
No.
Elston.
Come on, Elston. I know you're in there.
You knew this was coming, Elston.
Not in three months, I didn't.
You couldn't even call me
and tell me yourself.
I had to find out
from the damn clean-up crew.
Things happen.
"Things happen." Yeah.
What happened to all those strings
you supposed to be pulling, Miss Sue?
You're my city representative.
Go down there and start representing.
Elston,
the city isn't gonna fund an institution
that has no economic worth to it
or the community it serves.
Let me tell you something, Sue.
Worth shouldn't be based on economics.
You of all people should know that.
Elston, how many kids
came through that front door today?
None.
How many yesterday?
Hell, the last six months?
Yes, I see them
playing basketball out front.
But you know what?
They can play basketball anywhere.
