Nice try.

But they haven't seen him

in over a month.

He even left a rocker

he was working on half-Finished.

I don't know what

to tell you, baby.

Well, just give him this.

I'll have a talk with him.

No. I'm the one that needs

to have a talk with him.

You're really okay, Mr. L.

( CHUCKLES ) Thank you.

Sometimes I wonder.

( LAUGHS )

Okay, well, I'm gonna go.

Have a good day, baby.

Thanks.

So, what's been

keeping my track star

Away from home so much?

It's not a girl, is it?

No, uh-Uh.

( SNIFFLES )

as a matter of fact,

I stood up angel last night

so I could study.

You're still seeing her?

( SIGHS )

Does her mother

still work at Wal-Mart?

Whoa! Mom, for real?

Come on... Her mom's cool,

all right?

I mean, besides, I might need

to get a job there, myself.

You get an allowance.

Yeah, but dad's cutting back

till I get my grades up.

I need money now.

For what?

Something wrong?

Nuh-Uh.

My cross-Trainers

just gettin' old.

( BOTH CHUCKLING ) I forgot.

At your age, things get old five

minutes ago, right? Mmm? ( CHUCKLES )

How much you need, baby?

For cross-Trainers?

Well, I mean,

The whole team's gettin'

these leather jackets, right?

( STAMMERING ) I guess I could

settle for a nylon jacket,

But I know you don't want your boy

rocking no nylon jacket at school.

( CHUCKLES )

I only got 150, jay.

No, that's cool.

That's cool.

That's enough for the shoes.

But we can go shopping together

for that jacket, right?

I mean, you...

You can charge it, right?

( CHUCKLES ) Right.

( BOTH CHUCKLING )

You're the best, mom.

( PAPER TEARING )

I love you, too, baby.

So, baby, I know I haven't

been to the track meets lately,

And I'm sorry, but you know I've been

working hard with this committee.

You know? Go green.

Yeah.

But I really wanna

talk to you about that angel.

What?

I don't like her.

Huh? ( STAMMERING )

I just don't.

I-I just feel like she's...

in the way of your future.

She's needy.

She didn't even do anything to you.

She's needy. Just saying.

( CHUCKLES )

Okay, okay.

You need to try something new.

New like what?

What's new?

Keep it movin'.Com.

What is that?

Did you just make that up?

Well, maybe.

( CHUCKLES )

Okay.

Might be a site with some new booty on it.

Mom!

( LAUGHING )

Ahh.

( JASON CHUCKLING )

The jacket looks nice on you.

Right?

Thank you. Thank you to my mom.

( CHUCKLES )

Why are you

sitting in the dark?

Where were you last night?

Uh... i-I was studying

Like I told you.

You haven seen Angelina

in weeks.

I just figured that

studying with angel would...

um, just distract me

a little bit.

He already told me.

Just where have you been going?
