of your time.

Time I don't have.

You're turning into

a Terry McMillian character.

Don't say that,

that's cold!

I'm telling you

you're in trouble.

Oh, it's just I never

seem to find anyone

on the same page

with me.

What, like Dre?

Oh, here we go.

Come on.

You're gonna tell me

you never thought

about hooking up?

Dre asked me once

when I was at Columbia

if we should try being

more than just friends,

and... I told him no.

No?! What is wrong

with you, girl?

I mean, we've been through

everything together.

Exactly. So if

you two hook up,

you get the best

of both worlds.

You get the buddy

and the booty.

I hear you,

but relationships break up.

People get angry,

they never want to

talk to each other again.

I mean, you're divorced.

Terrell was your ace, right?

You still talk to him?

Me and Terrell talk

all the time.

We talk

about alimony,

we talk about

that tramp...

Exactly, exactly.

And you know Dre.

He's never been with a woman

more than a month.

Yeah, well,

looks like

he's gonna

keep this one.

Guess so. Ooh,

she invited me

to her bridal tea

shower thingy,

and I don't know

what to bring.

You haven't

changed a bit.

Want me to pick

something up for you?

Oh, would you,

would you?

I got you, cuz,

I got you covered.

You're the best

cousin in the world.

So what do you want me

to do with your massager?

High speed, low.

Reese:
Sidney!

You made it! Hi!

Hey.

Oh, thank you.

I wonder what this is.

Woman:
And we called

her Reese's pieces.

Second Woman:
Ok,

let's move on to the groom.

I'll ask

the same questions.

What is Dre's middle name?

Fine.

Romulus.

What'd you say,

Sidney?

You know the answer?

Romulus.

That's right.

That's the name of

this shake dancer,

works Club

Mozambique.

Ok, Aunt Betty.

Ok, anyway...

Romulus is right.

What is Dre's

favorite drink?

- Cosmo.

- A polar bear.

Ketel One martini

up with a twist,

but if he's trying

to show off, Macallan 25.

Right again.

Macallan 25.

All right, then.

What is Dre's

favorite song?

The Bridge Is Over,

Boogie Down Productions.

Ok, Sid can't

play anymore.

She knows too much.

Reese:
Ok, let's move on

to something else.

How about...

This is from moi.

Oh, you guys,

you guys!

Ooh!

Ohh!

Honeymoon night only.

You're so incredible.

I love you so much.

I'm glad

you like them, darling.

Ok, next, let's do...

Sidney's gift.

Thank you.

Such a sweetheart.

Nice. Very nice.

They're gonna be

perfect with my whip.

Sidney:

I'm gonna kill France!

I was

so embarrassed, Dre.

And hungry.

I bet you were.

I mean, they didn't

have anything

but those little

cucumber sandwiches

with the crust cut off.
