IDEAL / AMETHYST: Are you sure you don’t want the full show? 

DIMPLES: Actually, I was thinking maybe you would let me take you home and we can make our own show.

IDEAL / AMETHYST: I don’t work off the clock; I can hook you up with one of the girls that do.

DIMPLES: I ain’t no tricks; I’m talking about spending the night wit chu. You ain’t gotta do none of the work.

IDEAL / AMETHYST: ‘Cause reached out to me when no one else did. ‘Cause I shared things with you I ain’t shared with nobody else. Because I spent years fuckin’ you in my dreams. 

IDEAL / AMETHYST: ( Laughs ) Oh my God – at least you were honest. 

DIMPLES: I ain’t got nothing to lie about. Come on – promise you’ll go home satisfied.

See? I told you it was OK to let Mercedes go home.

I did good, right?

CONNIE: Yeah. You did real good, mi amor. 

JOCELYN: I was thinking – now that Tio Myra and her sister is coming to stay with us, maybe me and Mercedes can close for you more.

CONNIE: I don’t know; Q might not like y’all out late by yourselves like that.

JOCELYN: * sucks teeth * you ain’t my man – I’m grown.

CONNIE: your brother just wants you to be safe.

IDEAL: Car’s almost here. 

DIMPLES: A’ight - thanks for last night.

So – did I keep my word?

IDEAL: Yeah. You kept your word. I ain’t gonna lie; you put it down. 

DIMPLES: You gonna let me put it down again? You gonna let me call you? 

IDEAL: Yeah. You can call me again. 

MERCEDES: Ideal’s cool; she’s probably one of the only people who was nice to me when I worked at the club. But… Do you think it’s bad for her to get involved with Dimples like this?

ABUELA: They’re both grown, Mercedes. They can make their own decisions. 

ABUELA: Don’t be so uptight; she’s been through hell. Shoot, if I’ve been in as long as she was, I would’ve gotten some too.

( Mercedes takes a swig of her tea and tries not to choke )

NDESI: Yeah well, that’s why we’re here. 

Now remember, don’t get all stush wit her about her place; she’s making her own way.
