Not since Debra -

that's the girl I almost married.

Day of my wedding, I went to the

church early, cos I had a bad feeling,

and I go in the back,

and that's when I saw it.

She was on the ground

with the best man.

And the priest.

Freakin'.

You poor baby.

Yeah, that's when I realised

that you can't trust anybody.

You can trust me.

I'm not ready for this.

I think I should take you home.

I think it's best.

I can't tell you how helpful this

has been. Gold star for Christie.

Thanks. You really

helped me in here. I felt that.

- You don't have to thank me. Come on.

- No, no, I shouldn't come in.

- Come on.

- Christie, don't. I shouldn't be in here.

I'm not ready for this.

Are we by ourselves?

- Of course we're by ourselves.

- Christie.

- Marcus, spend the night with me.

- Christie, no, it's just too soon. I c...

I just don't wanna be hurt again.

I won't hurt you.

Please be gentle.

- So what happened with this girl?

- Man, she was beautiful.

She was beautiful,

but her feet were jacked up.

- Were they?

- Yeah. I pulled the covers back...

- Yeah?

- ..it was Hammer time.

I should've known. I seen

her shoes had little bumps on the top,

but I thought it was an old shoe.

You'd never think a woman that fine

would have Hammer time in her shoe.

Come on, man, you don't f*** her feet.

I hope I'm not outta line, but don't you

think you were just a little bit too picky?

- Yeah.

- What happened with Tracy?

You met that girl.

She's not very smart.

- Come on, you don't f*** her brains.

- I'm looking for perfection.

- Hi, Marcus.

- Hey.

- Yo, Marcus.

- What's up?

Hey, you on your way to meet Lady

Eloise to discuss that merger, right?

- How do you know everything?

- I read it in your office.

You not supposed to be in my office,

or goin' through my mail, OK?

No, man, I wasn't goin' through your

stuff, man. Here. Hold it up. Hold it up.

- You're gonna read right through?

- Right through.

It says "..lunch tomorrow

at Houlihan's".

Open it up.

"How about lunch at Hou..."

v ery impressive.

Told you, man. Told you, man.

Check this out, man.

I been workin' here nine days.

I been on time, even when it rains. Don't

you think it's time we talked promotion?

Come on, man. I get my own office,

man, bring my ho's in here.

We have a little party,

set this motherf***er off, man.

Marcus Graham.

Lady Eloise? I can't tell you how

excited you got everybody up here.

You're like a breath of fresh air. I've

never seen everybody so excited. It's...

Lady Eloise? I think you requested

to see me. Marcus Graham.

I know.

- May I have a seat?

- Please.

Keep standing.

The rest of my administrative team

will be arriving tomorrow.
