Previously on Love It. I love you.

I love you too.

So let's cut the bullshit and get on
with living this life together.

From the moment I saw him at the concert
to the next day were some of the best

moments of our relationship.

You can meet up later.

It's only at 7 o 'clock.

Hey, Nuri.

It's Keith.

I wanted to connect about our ski
weekend.

I made those plans before I fell in love
with you.

Of course, I'm not going.

How did his car get all the way down
here? I was going to have it towed, but

then I thought, well, I don't know what
this guy is to you. Looks like he's

living out of his car.

Ruby, what happened to you?

I messed up.

I got liposuction.

I'm in love with a guy I don't even know
his last name.

Yasir Omar, 1739 Klondike Street,
Apartment 9.

Nuri, I know you probably have a lot of
questions, and I apologize.

For not calling you all day. And for
standing me up. And I'll tell you

everything. Like if you've ever been
married before.

Or if you have any kids. Or if you have
a job. An income.

And if you're using me as a second
chance at life.

Am I using you?

Yes. Are you using me?

When does the fun begin?

Goodbye morning.

But they cried

just a little too long.

Now it's time for me to be strong.

Hello, boy.

Goodbye morning.

You just won't do me right.

I played just a little too long.

Now it's time for me to move on.

I started to wonder if I dreamed the
whole thing. He didn't call.

He didn't come back to me.

But when I heard that doorbell ring, I
forgot to be mad at Yasir.

The thought of seeing him excited me
more than trying to stay pissed. So I

remember jumping straight up and running
to the door to find Keith.

Now, you know if I forgot to be mad at
your fear, I certainly forgot about

on that damn ski trip.

Hey. I'm starting to get worried you
weren't coming.

You forgot, maybe.

What? No!

Uh, Keith.

You're here already.

How else would I take you to Mammoth?
You almost ready to go?

Oh, you just...

He just woke up, huh?

Guilty. I knew as soon as the sun came
up that I would have a hard choice to

make.

Hard not because I didn't know who to
choose. Hard because I knew who I was

going to hurt.

I also knew that if I tried to do right
by Ruby, that I would

risk losing Nuri.

Oh, Mom, just hear him say hello.

Hey, Marguerite, how are you?

No, we're fine, we're fine.

We just out here chasing these dreams.

Mm -hmm.

Well, you know how much I love your
roti.

Okay.

I love you, too.

I don't know where she is.

Hi.

We love you more, though.

I guess we're having dinner with my
parents in six weeks.

You're looking a lot better today, but
I'll be honest.

I like your old legs better. Thigh gap's
overrated.

Oh, so chicken legs is going to tell me
something about a thigh gap.

You better back off my legs.

Before I tell your mama that you lied to
her. If you tell my mama, I'm going to

tell my daddy that you left me in L .A.
for another woman.

Oh, now you want to be quiet.

Listen.

I appreciate you helping me out.

Helping out?

I've been carrying you longer than
Jordan's been carrying the bulls.

Except I got no wings to show for it.
That might be true.

But the bulls are pretty good without
them. Boy, please.

Boy?

You're really taking advantage of me
being on thin ice, aren't you?

Remind me, why are you on thin ice
again?

I'm serious.

I would hate to not ever see you again
because... You don't want me anymore.

Ruby,

I would like to salvage something.

You were there for me when a lot of my
dreams were seeded, just like I was

for yours.

Go on and say it.

I wouldn't be here if it weren't for
you.

Right?

I'm not going to do this. No, just go on
and say it.

You gave me money. You packed me up. You
drove me down here.

You convinced my parents to stop
guilting me.

Was she the one coming by here last
night?

Yes.

You don't have to babysit me anymore.

I know you're itching to get to her, so
go.

Sorry if I'm holding you up. Well, no,
not if you hurry up.

Come on, we can get tea on the road. I
want to get the jump on traffic.

I'm sorry, but yesterday... How about
you tell me about it in the car?

I want to get going.

Well, I want to tell you now, just in
case I get... Oh, hey, check this out.

Look, look.

I got you this truck.

Yeah.

That's a picture.

I really can't accept that.

Why not?

It's your employer calling.

That detail's enough, right? I have to
answer that. You know how a Padawan

becomes a Jedi?

She answers the call.

Norman, I'm here. Yeah, you are. Listen,
I know it's Saturday, but I need my

best soldier to come down to work today.

So you might have to tell little Ming
Lee or whoever that your cuticles and

bunions are going to have to waste.

All right? Because I got a lot on my
plate right now. Trying to eat?

You want to take me to lunch? No.

I want some help with some ideas on a
Saturday. Oh, oh, of course. Yes, I'm

there. What time?

I have ten minutes to go to work for
you. Sure thing, Norman.

Bye -bye. Bye.

So?

Norman just called me in to work today.

And for how long?

I do not know. Yeah, damn.

Yeah.

Well, Norman had a big meeting with my
boss yesterday, so if he's calling about

what I think he is, then you could be
there for a while.

What is it?

I'm not at liberty to speak on that.

But I will say, it's your best ideas.

What do you know?

I know that you were a medium.

You didn't have to do that.

I wanted to.

I want to make your first ski trip
special.

Sorry. I don't think I'm going to be
able to make it this time.

You don't know how determined I am, do
you?

If we have to leave after the meeting,
we'll do that.

It's okay for your traffic. I got a ton
of CDs.

Besides, it's not like we were going to
be skiing anyways.

Nine!

NINE!

There's some more over here.

Thanks.

Wow.

Nobody ever ran after me down the street
like that.

That was so romantic.

I'm Pearlie, the neighbor.

I live right here.

Yes, sir. You know, I tried to get those
tow truck drivers not to take your car,

but they wouldn't listen to me, and they
took it anyway.

Thanks for your support.

Your car didn't work anyway.

Well, maybe it's for the best.

I mean, you know what they say.

If it's not part of the solution, then
maybe it's part of the problem.

I know it's hardly original.

Anyway.

Welcome to Richie's Auto Impound.

How may I help you?

I'm here for the 91 Geo. Color?

Y 'all got that many 91 Geos here? Turns
out.

Your metro owners are the most
irresponsible.

Everybody wants to be a comedian. Look.
Actually, I have a show tonight at the

comedy store.

Man, I just need my car.

What's the damage?

Your total comes to $428.

$400?

It's only worth three. Looks like you
have a decision to make.

You ever been in love?

So from a man in love to a man
successful in love, I simply request

My car, a jump, and the use of your
phone.

See, in my glove compartment is the
phone number to the love of my life.

So if I can just make that phone call,
get a jump from you, I'll just borrow my

car for a day.

I promise I'll bring it right back with
a full tank of gas and $98 in food

stamps.

You're welcome to take some things from
your car.

Did you go to my glove box? Where was
the number that was inside?

Like I said, irresponsible.

Next.

Hey, do you guys have my car? It's a 93
Geo.

Turns out, Geo Metro owners are the most
irresponsible.

Everybody wants to be a comedian.

Actually, I have a show tonight at the
Comedy Store.

So do you have my car?

I should just leave her alone, huh?

I ain't got a car, a job, a place. I
mean, what do I have to offer her?

Man, I can't focus what you're staring
at me like a lost puppy.

I think you're doing it wrong.
Absolutely not.

It's arms day.

It's a by -master.

Well, today it's the by -master.

It has multiple uses. I'd prove it to
you if I had the internet.

What happened now?

Camille took the power cord for the
computer.

She caught me creeping on in the chat
room.

Bruh.

It goes down in the IM.

What the hell is that?

AOL instant messenger?

Computers like typewriters for getting
booty, bruh.

How do you know that you're actually
talking to a female?

They send pictures.

I don't know about that, bruh.

It's the Internet. It's safe. Trust me.
Come on, man.

I thought you were done.

Come on, man. Don't rush me.

I told you I'd swing you by there.

Man, try her job. Maybe she's over
there. Car job on the weekend?

Mm -hmm. Come on, Sean. That seems
desperate.

Nigga, you are desperate.

Your net worth is $98 in food stamps.

Hey, guys.

This is Marcy. Isn't she a good girl?

She came all the way up here on a
Saturday to visit her Uncle Norman. It

nice to meet you. Finally, I get to put
a face to the names that appear after

mine in the opening credits. I don't
have a credit, but I do want you to know

that my name belongs to this face. I am
a huge fan of your work. Oh, I didn't

tell you who I am.

I'm Nuri. He's up, Nuri. I'm Jared's
biggest fan here.

I'm Angela. My credit comes fourth after
your name.

Angela, I love your hair.

Thank you. Oh, Normster, this is what we
need, showing what real black women are

doing and what they look like. Wendy had
braids when we cast her.

Spilled milk. It's all good. Ladies,
thank you for... Coming out this

we're just going to be doing a little
brainstorming session. Nothing is real

yet. We thought we'd treat you to some
bagels and lox and chat about what is

possible. Well, it turns out that black
women are our biggest audience, and they

want more of Wendy. Oh, she's so sassy.
I love her.

Don't you? Yes, she's sassy.

Don't you guys love her? Oh, yeah.

She's one of our junior actors.

Yes, we can handle more. Which is why
you guys are here.

because I know sometimes you get drowned
out in the room. Yes, and we really

want to hear you. Norman really wants to
hear you. I got to get going.

Come on. Okay, there's the big one. Come
on.

You're doing too much. You got to keep
up. I'm already in 1998.

Boom.

All right, have a great weekend. Come
on, Larson. All right, you guys.

Ooh -wee.

Ooh -wee, okay.

Angela. Angela.

On behalf of myself and all the
ancestors, we'd like to thank you

for keeping your cool.

Well, I'm talking to the ancestors right
now.

And Madam C .J. Walker says I should
have whooped his ass.

Hold up, hold up. I'm getting something
from Nat Turner.

He wants us to go catch him in the
parking lot. Let's go.

My man, it don't fit because you ain't
got all the pieces.

Just stop.

Stop.

Well, I had things to do that day, but I
was honestly worried that, well, I

thought he was on suicide watch. Man, I
love Nori, but I wasn't going to kill

myself. Because you had me. I'm telling
you, you were hanging on by a thread,

bro.

I was seriously worried.

Thought he would paper cut himself to
death.

Where is she?

You say that she always shows up.

This time of day, four, five, six hours
right there working on her scripts.

That was when she was broke before she
got a job.

I hate to do this to you, but I got to
go home.

Come on, just 30 more minutes.

I got to take a number two.

Sean, just use the bathroom here. It's
clean. I use it all the time. Number

Yeah, once or twice.

Nah, man. I got a phobia. I can't get
down like that.

Yeah, we must go. I got a brown bear at
the lake, and he ready to go fishing.

Can we stop past her house?

I mean, it's on the way to your place.

Man, you don't care nothing about me, do
you?

If she's there, I hop out. If she's not,
at least I can leave her a note telling

her that I love her and that I'm looking
for her.

Come on, man.

Please.

Yo, I don't know if I ever really
thanked you for that.

Um, hey.

You know, cards with money inside work,
too.

I'm just saying.

All right. You're going to need this,
crazy -ass scum.

Nice new collection.

When you're broke, people are

always waiting for you to get past that
point.

Like it's a cold you can eventually
shake.

But it's hard getting past hungry.

It's hard depending on people.

It's hard being a man in the world and
feeling like you've got no trinkets to

prove it.

When Nori looked into my eyes, I saw the
real me.

A man who could become a king.

I knew that my chances were slim.

But I needed her to keep seeing me.

right now. Yo, man, get back in the car.

Get... Yo,

man, what are you doing? Either I squat
in her backyard or I'm breaking one of

these... I knew she was one of those
over -trusting girls. Come on, man.

You can't go in her house. You're right.

Because I already did.

That's right.

Get it together.

You're here for an opportunity.

He's not thinking about you.

Lap on a smile and you don't think about
him.

It's over.

Count your blessings that you're in a
room where it happens and go get this

money.

Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.

Maya Angelou.

Come on, man.

Why are you listening?

Sean, close the door. What?

It's just me and you.

I see why you're trying to get up in
here. It's a nice spot.

I mean, it only has one bathroom.
Nothing good for retail.

Well, it's cozy for somebody homeless,
huh, Player Player?

Hurry up, man.

Please.

I know where she is.

Man, why didn't you tell me she got a
ski invite?

Got me breaking and entering.

I wonder why we couldn't find her, man.
She gone.

But the ski gear is still here, so maybe
she hadn't left yet.

What this clue says to me is that this
stuff didn't make it into a suitcase.

Why she got the ski gear at all?

She told me that she wasn't going to go.

What I'm trying to tell you is that she
bought a blue jacket and a pink jacket.

And right now she rocking a pink jacket.

And you're feeling blue staring at the
blue jacket.

I think we should be exploring the fact
that she's the only female barber in

this shop.

We're exploring that already. Most of
the jokes are about how much the guys

hitting on her.

I think we're servicing her. But it's
from the perspective of how the guys see

her. What are her hopes and dreams? What
does she want in life?

For the guys to hit on her. Plus, we
gave her the tagline.

Girl, I got it!

That she only uses when she's answering
the door of the phone.

Well, how else is the audience supposed
to see her after those jeans?

That is what we're trying to say.

All she is is a prop.

Maybe we could give her a life.

Like? Like, what if she was a barber on
the off -season because her real -life

dream is playing in the new WNBA? Oh,
no, I can't produce that.

Plus, nobody likes watching women play
basketball.

Why would they want to watch a show
about a woman playing basketball?

How about we just give her an opinion?
Thank you.

Hmm.

Give a woman an opinion?

Padawan, you taking notes?

Yep.

And speaking of opinions... It's my
wife.

Good. Keep going. I'll be black.

We've been here all day, and all Wendy
will ever do is get a tighter pair of

jeans. Girl, I got it.

Yeah, a yeast infection.

Norman's wife pays him six times a day,
and he hasn't paid me once.

Who? He's here.

I thought we moved on from him.

When did I say that?

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought it happened
when he closed the door on your face.

spent the night with his roommate.

Or when we made fun of him for eight
hours. hours last night. I get it.

Yep. Rosa Parks just paged me.

I think she sees him sitting on the back
of the bus.

Come on. That is funny.

Honey, I'm home.

Dinner's almost ready.

You're trying to fool first in case you
try to poison me.

You owe me.

I'll be right back.

That's right. You better run.

I ain't scared of you. I want to go see
Mia.

Don't wake my baby.

How you doing?

I'm in a relationship with your friend.
How do you think I'm doing?

Did he tell you?

Camille, now you know I ain't getting in
the middle of you two. I'm not really

tripping. Hell, Butterfly 69 might be
doing me a favor taking this boy off my

ass. Oh, hey.

You get any message for me on your
voicemail?

I made a few calls today. I heard Ruby
put you out. I left.

Who were you hoping called?

A job?

Or that girl?

Bo, so Sean gives you daily briefings.
That's some of our best bonding time.

Yes, here's one life to live.

Well, you think I lost her?

Just give her some time.

She'll come around.

I mean, look at me. I'm still with your
boy.

Or maybe I'll give him to that chatroom
girl. I don't know.

I thought I was your ride -or -die
chick.

Well, you are my ride -or -die chick,
baby.

The only thing better than having one
ride -or -die chick is having two.

Please. Yassir, he watches PBS one time.
Y 'all caught that polygamy

documentary.

Trippy, right? Yo, changed my life.

Sean, you can barely please one woman.

How you gonna handle two?

See, what you see as cheating is me out
here trying to build us a solid

foundation. Besides, I'm just trying to
find you some help with the dishes.

Oh, my God.

I got some chicken to flip.

Chicken.

It's sad people can't see a brighter
future.

It's lonely being a visionary.

It's lonely being alone.

You better chill, bro, before you lose
her.

Man, she ain't going nowhere.

Man, we need to grow up.

Oh, sure.

Here we go. You know when women love,
they love hard.

To the point that they overlook
themselves, we got to ask ourselves, are

taking advantage of that?

You mean are we using them?

Yeah, sure.

Essentially, we both good guys, but
let's be honest.

Maybe they still calling us boys if we
won't get off their couch and act like

men. Yeah, I'm going to stop you at that
pity party and let you leave alone

right there, man.

I sleep in the bed.

Yeah, but you was just on the couch. I
was on the couch because she was mad.

You were on the couch because you ain't
got nowhere else to go.

All right, dinner is ready.

Look, I know misery needs company, but
I'm here.

Raising my daughter, figuring it all
out. Yeah, you know, sometimes I might

up. She catch me on the internet looking
for some attention whenever she gets on

my nerves.

But I'm here.

So the question's really for you.

Are you using the woman that you're
with?

Okay, just so we're all clear, Sean, the
little piece of chicken is for you.

What? Hey, so who's getting the big
piece of chicken? Boy, me.

I do everything.

I eat everything.

And as far as her calling me boy,

at least she calling me.

You gonna be able to finish that?

Don't touch my chicken. Yo, you gonna
clap my face like that? I'm gonna clamp

it. I'm gonna clamp that mouth shut. You
know what?

I see you got the door open.

Yeah.

It's nice.

Want to use some fresh air? Yeah.

I get it.

Fresh air, fresh start.

When my unemployment checks come in, I'm
going home.

Home, home.

Yeah.

Home, home.

If you're not a part of the solution,
you must be part of the problem.

There's no future there.

There isn't one here either.

I can't be here without my son and
nothing.

At least if I go back to... You can have
the couch back.

You think I'm trying to get your couch
back?

Yes, sir, you can't go home. You think
I'm giving you all this drag to get your

couch back? Then stay on the couch for
me.

If you go home for good. My parents are
going to be worried sick about me being

in L .A. all by myself.

And I can't have them come check on me.

I could barely face you.

I can't let my mother see me like this.

My dad, he didn't leave our country so
that I could come to America and get

liposuction.

I asked you a question, and I would
really like you to answer it.

I'm offering you a fresh start.

Do you think I'm using you?

Just take the fresh start.

The fresh start.

Without strings.

It's just a couch for six weeks.

Until I heal and get back on my feet
again.

You know, I could use some help.

And you could use it for a start.

That night Nuri came to my door, she
asked if I was using her.

I was offended.

But here I was asking Ruby the same damn
question.

Deal?

Deal.

No, no, no, no, no!

No!

That's what we think.

Put that on TV. That would be
revolutionary. Uh -uh, uh -uh. Y 'all

my good leg right about now. Norman,
swear to God.

It's true.

That's true. That's true.

Say it ain't so.

It's so.

Oh, wait a minute. You mean to tell me
that when a woman says she's fine, she's

not fine?

Yes. No, I can't believe it. We are
moving on.

We are moving on. We are here.

We are shaking up the world.

We shook up the world.

Wow. Sounds like a party in here. What's
happening with you?

Well, I heard you guys were working
hard, so I thought I'd swing by with

treats. How'd you know we were here?

Network got cameras on us or something?

No, no, that's not in the budget.

No, I'm just checking on you all.

Now, Norman, I think you like it black.

Good looking out. Angela, I heard you
like lattes.

Thank you. And Nuri, I heard you like
tea.

Hey, Keith, let me holla at you right
quick.

Oh, sure.

Let me make this quick.

You know his last name.

He has a job.

And you liked him last week.

Inquiring minds want to know, are you
stupid?

Or are you going?

Keep it real with me.

Is this one of DGN's half -assed plans
to exploit our culture and make a quick

penny? Because I don't want to do
another Marvin. I know, I know.

And I'm tired of Jared driving his ass
down from Malibu and throwing his name

all over my shows, making that easy
money. Look, all we're saying is we want

do an episode that features her.

That sets up a backdoor pilot?

Maybe.

Mm -hmm.

Yeah, you stay black.

It's okay.

Don't worry about it. Hey, where you
going?

Ballet and ring? School ain't out?

I have to go to the bathroom.

Okay, well, you can do that because
you...

I have rights. And you're a woman with
an opinion.

So go on with your opinion.

What was that?

He's right.

I have an opinion.

And I'm glad you waited on me.

Go skiing.

Stop, Nuri.

Go skiing.

Keith is a good guy.

Hey man, how you doing?

Slow down, slow down.

You did what?

Oh, you got a gold star.

That's good.

When daddy's proud of you, son.

Mm -hmm.

Right.

Will you read to me for a little bit?

Good morning.

Morning. How you feeling?

I'm fine.

A lot of people ask questions when they
already know the answers.

I knew I was using Ruby.

Cool.

I was just checking in on you.

You sure you don't need anything?

No, I'm fine, really.

But I also believe that I loved her.

Okay.

I'm gonna step out for a moment, but
I'll be right back.

Okay. Okay.

There's a thin line between being loved
and being used.

And guilt is the glue that holds that
line together.

You know you got to go to the bathroom.

So let's get that out of the way.

Let's get a few laps in.

And then I'll go.

If you think about using someone, we're
all guilty of it. In our relationship

with God, our relationship with our
parents, friends, family. We don't like

to admit it, but it's mostly true.

My guilt was staying longer than I
should have, trying to prove that I

user.

In situations like that,

Love forms, and you convince yourself
it's going to last forever.

So, you stay.

It's not pretty.

And it's not the stuff of fairy tales.

But because of Ruby, I got a second
chance to answer Nuri's questions.

promise you answers.

On June 21st, 1964, I was born Earl
Wallace Green.

I changed my name to Yasir Omar when I
converted to Islam.

I've been married and divorced once.

And I have a son named Deontay.

He's my greatest creation.

He's six now.

And it tears me up every second that I'm
not with them.

My friendship with my ex Ruby is just
that.

A friendship.

I'll always love her and we'll be
roommates for six more weeks.

No, I'll be the first to admit that I'm
not perfect.

I probably got Ramadan 85 % right this
time.

I smoke way too much and...

I'm a little bit behind on my child
support.

The other night you asked me, was I
using you?

Yes.

I am.

I'm using you to make me a better
person.

Nuri.

You're my fresh start.

I didn't know what was going on with us.
For all I knew, you were already back

with your ex.

So you're going thin.

I didn't want to put my life on pause
while you decide who you want.

I thought you were different.

Let me fix this, okay?

Why are you going with him in the first
place?

What? I told you, let's cut the
bullshit.

We've only known each other for like
three days, and you've been gone for two

them.

You must be Keith.

Yeah.

It's nice to meet you.

Nuri talks about you all the time.

Nice to meet you too, brother.

Well, I know you two got some skiing to

Have a good time, Nuri.
