- Angela: What do you know about love? What could you possibly know about love? You know, I'm sick and tired of men using love as if it's some disease you just catch. Love should have brought your ass home last night.
- Mr. Jackson: Now Marcus, I hear a girl down at the office got you pussy-whipped.
- [Smacks on fingers]
- Mr. Jackson: You got to reverse it. Don't be pussy-whipped, whip that pussy. Like this here, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
- Bony T: Now check this out man, I've been working here about 9 days, you know, been on time most of the time, even when it rains. Don't you think it's about time we talk promotion?
- Marcus Graham: HAHAHA!
- [hearty laugh]
- Bony T: Marcus, come on man, I get my own office man, bring my hos in here, we have a little party, set this muthafucka off, man!
- Marcus Graham: OK, you're auditioning for one of the commercials, you're a model or something?
- Jacqueline: No, no I'm not a model. I'm going to work for the company.
- Marcus Graham: Really?
- Jacqueline: M-hm, marketing, yep.
- Marcus Graham: Really? That's my department I'm Marcus Graham!
- Jacqueline: You're Marcus Graham? You're the Marcus Graham?
- [he nods affirmatively]
- Jacqueline: This is pretty funny that we're meeting like this.
- [Marcus points to her, unsure of who she is]
- Jacqueline: . Oh I'm sorry I'm Jacquelline Broyer.
- Marcus Graham: [shaking hands] OK!
- Jacqueline: I'm a huge fan of your work.
- [he thanks her]
- Jacqueline: You're very, very talented.
- Marcus Graham: Oh see you was treating me like my name was Stanley down in the lobby, turns out you're a fan of my work.
- Jacqueline: Hey, um, you're not getting serious on me, are you?
- Marcus Graham: What are you talking about? Am I getting serious? What is that?
- Jacqueline: You know, do you want this to grow into a relationship where we're together ALL the time? God.
- [laughs]
- Jacqueline: Stuff like that. Are you?
- Marcus Graham: Whoa. Excuse me. I know you're not telling me that New Orleans was a fling.
- Jacqueline: No, no, no. I had a great time in New Orleans. You know I had a great time in New Orleans.
- Marcus Graham: So, what's the problem?
- Jacqueline: I just think New Orleans was New Orleans, and we should leave it at that.
- Marcus Graham: Check it. Like Jet magazine. This is my Mac Daddy vibe I am giving you. In all its splendor.
- Yvonne: She dumped you, huh?
- Marcus Graham: Yeah.
- Yvonne: [sighs and smiles] I guess I should feel happy, but I don't.
- [smile turns seductive]
- Yvonne: So, you wanna come over for a cup of coffee?
- Marcus Graham: [gives Yvonne a wry look] Not even if Jesus was pouring.
- Yvonne: [gets pissed and makes a chuffing noise] Some motherfuckers don't know a *good thing* when it's standin' in front of 'em! Why don't you just *lift* your black ass over the edge then, fuck ya!
- [storms back in the house]
- Marcus Graham: [on the phone with a girl] Hey you... no don't be mad- Can I explain to you what happened? Have you been watching the news? Oh well then you haven't been watching the news. The big accident they had in mid-town, where the cabs busted into the cabs- uh, into the other cabs, then the bus, then the watermain bus, I was in that!
- Woman from Holland: [smiling] Hi.
