(scene thudding)
(logo beeping)
(logo buzzing)
(siren wailing)
[Soldier] He's on the
left, down at the corner.
That's him.
(gunshots popping)
(bullet shells clinking)
(explosion booming)
[Soldier] I have the suspect in sight.
Follow, follow, there he goes.
Straight.
(door slamming)
Kill, kill, follow, follow.
(siren wailing)
- Daryl, what happened?
- You have PTSD.
Daryl, what happened? What's wrong?
[Echo] Post-traumatic stress disorder.
Daryl, what the hell? Again?
Daryl, you're not in the war no more.
No one's following you.
There's no bombs going on.
Yeah, I know they following
me. I know they following me.
Black truck, circled twice.
I know I'm not crazy.
Daryl, slow down. There's
nobody following you.
Nobody's here. It's just you and me.
Calm down, just take a seat, sit!
[Soldier] He's inside,
and he's with a female.
Calm down.
(gunshots popping)
Daryl, calm down. No one's following you.
It's just us. Look, all right?
Calm down, sit back.
They're following us.
You ain't see how they were looking at us?
There's nobody here.
It's just you and me right now, all right?
Let's practice what Mommy taught us.
Take a deep breath in, deep breath out.
Breathe in, breathe out.
Good, so chill.
Now, look, I think you
need to talk to that guy
I'm watching on the lives
all the time, Virgil.
Come on, he could help you.
I've watched him help so many people,
and I read the testimonies, like,
he could really get you through this.
I was you once, remember?
- Yeah, okay.
Look, look at me, I'm good.
Why you want me to call him so bad?
He's paying you for this?
No, he's not paying me for this,
but I watched him so much,
I know how good he is,
and I know he can help you.
- Mm-hmm.
- So I understand.
I think he's the real deal.
Yeah, you going mad hard for him.
I'm not going hard for him.
I'm, it's just you and me right now,
and I wanna help you, okay?
- Mm-hmm.
- All right,
so I'm gonna text you the number,
and you gonna call, right?
- Yeah.
All right, I'm gonna head to work.
I have a meeting, and then
I'm gonna give you a call
just to check in.
- She gets cuts?
Okay, like, yes, okay!
Why you giving me that attitude?
I'm just trying to help you.
- 'Cause I heard.
You said it, like, 30 times.
I heard you, okay, go.
[Toya] All right, I'm
gonna hold you to it.
You better call.
Yo, could you go?
Like, you're dragging it.
[Toya] Don't be looking at me like that.

(phone ringing)
Take a ride
That's why we clashing now, baby
[Al] Unknown caller.
Unknown- (phone tinkling)
What's going on? It's Virgil.
What's your name? Where you calling from?
It's Daryl from the Bronx.
What's up, Daryl from the Bronx?
Sound like you had a heavy
heart, man, what's up?
I don't even know where to start.
Well, just, just start from today.
I can't sleep.
I can't breathe.
Half the time, I, I
is in a war zone with now way out.
Look, man, I know
things seem impossible.
I promise you, there
there's a way to get
through it, all right?
Listen, God, He made you tough
enough to fight this battle.
Trust me, okay, Daryl?
I feel like going to heaven right now.
Heaven? Whoa, whoa.
Heaven is the greatest
place anyone could think of.
It's full of peace, and
happiness, and love,
but come on, brother,
you got a lot of work
to do right here, all right?
We got people to save right here!
The world needs you, Daryl. Come on, man.
(pen scratching)
Hello?
Daryl, you still there?
Yeah, thank you, Virgil.
Really appreciate you.
Okay, I, look, 'cause look-
So I know what to do now. Thank you.
We gotta talk about
the packages, all right?
'Cause, um, this thing here-
(dial tone beeping)
Hello?
Hello?
This motherfucker hung up.
Al, play the music.
(Al chiming)
(gunshot cracking)
(body thudding)
Oh
(groovy music)
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Yeah, yeah, baby, yeah
Yeah, yeah, baby, yeah
Oh oh oh
Baby, are you there now
When you come
'Cause it feels like forever
Since you been home
I think you made your point now
Yeah, it showed
You're not the one to play with
Girl, we know
Girl, you got me
soul-searching, keep diving
Looking for forever with you
Girl, you got me
soul-searching, keep diving
Looking for forever with you
You got me acting all crazy
Pull up, son, don't say nothing lazy
You got me in my back lately
You just seem to think you're right
That's all because
(relaxing music)
(Monica sighing)
(phone ringing)
Hello, how you doing? You
on the phone with Virgil.
What's going on?
Hi,
my name is Monica.
Okay, so you said your name is Monica?
Yeah, I'm 35 years old,
and I'm from Boston, Massachusetts.
I'm looking for a high-value man.
No kids or kids?
No kids.
No kids at 35, okay, all right.
Um, and what you do for a living?
I'm an attorney.
So I would imagine that
would mean you're never home.
No, like, never.
Oh, well, that's
problem number one, okay?
You're busy, you're making
all this money, all right?
Men don't really want that, okay?
You're, you're looking at a high-value man
and thinking that that's the same thing
that takes to be a high-value woman,
but in reality, it's the exact opposite.
I hear what you're saying,
but I need to find a man on my level.
I'm looking for someone
who can meet myself
where I am and meet my standard.
Your standards?
I'm tired of living leveling down.
I wanna level up.
[Virgil] Let me guess,
you're making six figures.
Yes, I'm making six figures.
I need someone who can
match that, if not more.
(Virgil chuckling)
So you think your six figures matters,
and that's the problem, okay?
Your six figures do not matter to a man
who's making six figures.
So you think that's where your value is,
but that's not where your value is.
Your value is in that womb
(lift tinkling)
And how good you could cook.
That's where your value's at.
What? That's ridiculous!
[Virgil] I mean, can you cook?
A lot of women these days
don't even know how to cook.
And if I can't cook,
what does that mean?
[Virgil] That's everything.
That's everything. What do you mean?
A man wants to come home from work,
get a good cooked meal,
wants his clothes cleaned,
the house looks good,
and that's just how
men work on that level.
Why can't we both do it
and, and share that responsibility?
Why can't he cook sometimes too?
Well, 'cause I'm out making
six figures, that's why.
That's what you want, right?
You want a man making six figures.
Oh, now he's gotta cook?
But that wasn't the first thing you said.
So the one who'll be provider,
so let the man go to work.
I just don't understand why a woman
can't pursue a career and be a housewife.
Okay, that's a good
question, I like that,
but the problem with that is that
man's natural state is to be a provider.
Woman's natural state is a nurturer.
So as a woman, if you're
taking the provider
away from me,
why the hell we both
be needing to provide?
We don't both need to provide.
Somebody needs to provide
and somebody needs to
(door beeping)
Take care of the babies.
I don't understand why
I have to stay at home
(door clicking)
and be a housewife?
I, I can provide too.
Oh my God, you are giving me a headache.
You tell me you wanna be a wife,
you want all these things,
and then when I tell you
what it takes to be a wife,
you don't wanna do, you
wanna be a career woman.
You wanna be the man,
that's what you want.
You don't wanna let the man be a man.
So you want top 10% and
you wanna be top 10%.
That's not how this goes.
Usually, the man makes
more than the woman.
He's the provider, that's how that goes.
Who says we have to live by
society's standards and rules?
Why can't men and women be equal?
Equal? You, you do not
wanna be equal to a man.
Trust me when I tell you
it is hard out here.
You wanna be a woman,
and you should value being a woman.
Just because I'm a
woman, I can't be equal?
You do not wanna be equal.
That is the last thing
you wanna be is equal.
You don't wanna be equal.
You don't wanna kill the robbers.
You don't wanna get the insects,
get the bugs, mow the lawn.
Come on, do you really wanna do that?
Taking out trash, building shit?
Do you really want a
tool set for Christmas?
Whatever it is, you don't
want to be equal, trust me.
All right, since you
have all the answers,
tell me what I need to do.
Now that, you have to
get a consultation for that
and take the course.
Just go to my Instagram
and just hit the link in the bio.
It's gonna take you straight there.
Trust me, you need this course.
It's gonna change your
life. All right, Monica.
All right, talk to you later.

(Virgil exhaling heavily)

Baby, don't play dumb
You know what you came here for
Yeah, look, I'm at a balloon pop show,
and I don't have a good experience.
All right, first of all,
the hell would you go on
some stupid-ass game show
like that anyway?
I thought it was my last
shot at finding true love.
That was your last shot
at finding true love?
Tried everything, dating apps,
going to church and the dance socials.
Yeah, we got a lot of work to do, bro,
'cause, uh, that's a very shallow,
uh, you know, very childish show
that you're on, brother.
I would not waste my time
with you like that, right?
Yeah, that, that's
easy for you to say, uh.
Look, man, you got everything
going for yourself.
You got looks, you got
the swagger, everything.
I, I'm in the mud, man.
Hold on real quick.
(door clicking)
(ominous music)
What the fuck?
Hold, hold on.
What?
Yeah, yeah, so what you was saying?
(door thudding)
Uh, remember the balloon pop?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right,
that's right, the balloon pop.
All right, listen, brother,
you want a show with a bunch of women,
who don't even know what
they really look like.
They do know what they look
like, but they don't like it.
You understand what I'm saying?
They're covering their
hair up with fake hair.
You got fake eyelashes, you
got makeup, you got a BBL.
This shit is ridiculous.
The person who should
be embarrassed is them,
not you, brother, all right?
Yeah, right, I was probably
just being too hard on myself, mm?
- Definitely.
- Anything at all?
- Diego Lopez?
- Uh, man, uh, man, look,
I, I, I gotta go, I have an appointment.
What? Go?
I'm trying to give you
advice, you don't want it?
Yeah, give it to me
quick, but I, I, I gotta go.
Real quick?
Well, what the fuck? I'm not a microwave.
This is an oven.
This should take time, brother.
You gotta pay for this too.
Like, what's up with you?
You doing this or not?
Look, I, I understand, but,
but I, I have to go, I'm running...
All man, good luck.
All right, thank you.
(dial tone beeping)
Wasting my motherfucking time there.
Gourmet truffles? (Chuckles)
I got a lot of fans, I got a lot of fans.
Work hard, let's go.
(smooth music)
(phone ringing)
(phone vibrating)
(phone ringing)
(Virgil chuckling)
(phone tinkling)
Hey, Virgil, it's Emma.
Glad to talk to you again.
Okay, I have another problem.
Okay, okay, what's the problem?
Well, I took your advice
that you told me last time,
and I applied it to the situation
with a guy that I'm dealing with,
and he called me selfish.
Apparently, I'm selfish
because I don't wanna be a housewife.
I mean, I wanna make money too.
I don't wanna be in a house
raising kids, changing diapers.
And I just wanna know,
how does that make me selfish?
Okay, if you wanna be selfless,
this is how you be
selfless to a man, right?
You gotta sacrifice that career.
You gotta sacrifice that.
That got, that's gotta go out the window.
You gotta trust me.
You have trust
in the man that you're with
or don't be with him.
You can't run shit.
But I do trust him.
You don't trust him.
You have to, to, i-if you
wanna trust him, okay,
trusting him means I trust
that he's gonna be the
provider, the protector.
I'm gonna nurture, that's trust.
See, what you're doing is you're saying,
"No, I don't trust him,
so I gotta go provide.
I gotta go do this, I gotta go do that."
And, and, and, and, and do
whatever he, his job is.
See, you're missing the
point here, all right?
A woman should be
in the house nurturing.
Yeah, Virgil, I told you
I do not like kids.
I don't want the, like,
soccer van and the carpooling.
You're gonna be, how old are you again?
I'm 35.
So you don't understand
how you're an old woman.
That's what you don't understand.
What?
Old woman? I'm 35.
You have, let me
explain something to you.
Your value is in your womb.
I tried to explain this to you last time.
Wait, what? My value is in my womb?
What kind of 1960...
In the baby-making world,
you a dinosaur.
Excuse me, are you kidding? A dinosaur?
I'm trying, I'm trying to
make you understand something.
[Emma] Okay, all right,
that's very insulting, Virgil.
You're calling me old,
you're calling me a dinosaur.
Yes, in the baby-making
world, you're a dinosaur, okay?
Man is attracted to
nurture, having babies,
and you, you, you, your clock is ticking.
You don't have time to
be sitting around here
being nitpicking and having a career.
What, you gonna, I'm telling you,
you're gonna be with 12 cats,
and that's gonna be it for
you if you don't stop this.
You are going down a road of loneliness.
I actually love cats, so,
so that's not really a problem for me.
Okay, that's good,
I'm glad you said that
because I don't need your money.
Whatever you got going on,
if it comes with a
headache, you could keep it.
You know what?
I really don't need this negativity
because you just really frustrated me,
and I don't like it.
So you keep your bullshit advice
and shove it up your ass.
Fuck you!
(laid-back jazzy music)
All right, here we go.
(hands rustling)
I'll just let y'all get in the room,
see what's going on today.
Having a good day today.
Definitely, mm-hmm.
Hey, yo, Legacy, what up, man?
Yo, what's up, man? How you, yo.
You gotta take one of my courses, man.
Gotta level you up, B.
Let's see, how many are there?
All right, all right, all right.
Okay, all right, um,
had a real good day today.
(stranger knocking)
What the hell? Soon as I start.
Oh, that's oh. I'm right back, y'all.
(door clicking)
[Courier] Delivery for Virgil?
[Virgil] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's me, man, that's me, yeah.
[Courier] Yeah, babe, they
sent me to the North Tower.
[Virgil] Oh, oh, oh yeah, that's the one
around the corner.
- Crazy, right?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right.
- Is this Room 529? Wait!
Aren't you the guy from YouTube?
[Virgil] Thank you, you
know, this is, this is,
yeah, this is 529.
[Courier] Oh, you are
him, I knew it was you.
You are the guy from YouTube.
- All right, thank you.
- Um, may I just please
get your autograph?
(door thudding)
Oh, sorry.
(footsteps plodding)
Sorry about that, y'all.
Had to grab, get some grub, right?
It's just to sustain life.
You gotta live, right?
Um, all right, so where was I?
Oh, today was a good day, crazy day.
Um, I had a lot of good clients,
a lot of good conversations, um.
But one thing that happened that was crazy
was I got a real, real special gift today.
And shout-out to this anonymous fan who,
I have no idea who it is,
but they sent me a real special gift,
and to all my fans out there,
you really, really gotta step this shit up
'cause whoever this is,
they know a lot of information.
I could say that. So, y'all ready?
Drum roll, please.
(drum pounds)
(Virgil laughing)
All right, boom! Look at this.
Yo, look at this.
(audience applauding)
COOGI, look at this COOGI right here.
Look at the detail in here.
It's the real thing, it's
authentic, I checked it all out.
Unbelievable joint, man. I love it.
So whoever bought this,
they knew a lot about me.
All right, they knew where I'm from,
my favorite rapper, you know, all that.
So um, big shout-out to
the anonymous gift sender,
and you can hit me in DM, you know?
Don't gotta be a secret, come on.
(Virgil laughing)
Crazy. All right, so
here's what we gonna do.
Um, I got a message for everybody.
Well, before we do that, (exhales heavily)
I'll take two questions.
All right, I'll do three just,
just 'cause I'm, yeah, yeah, I got time.
All right, let's see who got a question?
What y'all wanna ask? Big Verge.
Mm.
Nah.
Oh, okay, I like that one.
All right, all right,
all right, so here we go.
What's my favorite food? (Chuckles)
I haven't really told
you all my favorite food,
so I'm not mad at y'all for not knowing.
But if I go anywhere,
if you know me, you know one thing,
I'm getting the steak, man!
I'm getting the steak,
medium well, slight pink.
That's it, don't, don't trip.
Slight pink, you know what I mean?
I want some truffle butter on it,
some mashed potatoes is cool.
Some broccoli with some garlic butter.
Ooh, maybe some asparagus,
asparagus is good too.
Um, so that's, that's, that's
my favorite dish right there.
Oh, let me see what else we got here?
Mm.
Um, oh, okay, my biggest fear?
My biggest fear, hmm,
that's a good question.
Mm, my biggest fear.
Damn, might have to be just God.
I don't really fear nothing, you know?
Come on, Wolfie, I'm from
Brooklyn, so I don't really fear,
I don't breathe this like that, man.
All right, let's go. What's new there?
How big is, whoa! Come, eh!
Man, let's get her outta
here 'cause she's a wildling.
All right, all right, um.
(fingers clicking)
Need one more question,
I need to go right now.
Let me see.
Um.
Okay, okay, all right.
All right, boom, cool.
I mean, all right, I'll answer that one.
That's a good one. It's light, it's cool.
It said, "Who are my favorite rapper?"
Um,
I don't really listen to rap too much,
but when I do, I'm
listening to Jay-Z, man.
Come on, you gotta listen to Hov.
It's the God.
It's the dynasty, baby. (Laughs)
That's the dynasty. All
right, question time's over.
Somebody said, "Can, yo, Virgil,
can you drop a jewel of the day?"
Can I drop a jewel of
the day? I like that.
All right, jewel of the day.
Mm, all right.
Had an interesting
conversation earlier today
about what do you want outta life
and are you happy
with what you have?
(alarm ringing)
Ooh.
All right, so before I get
outta here, that's my alarm.
I got a client, got a big
client I gotta talk to,
but want more.
If you're unhappy in life,
just know you have everything you want.
Just want more, all right?
And tomorrow, that's gonna be the build.
I'm gonna let y'all know,
explain exactly what I mean.
But right now, gotta go, all right?
All right, y'all.

(Virgil scoffing)
Hello?
Virgil, I didn't like the way
you was talking to that girl.
Ma,
like, 6:00 in the morning,
what are you talking about?
Boy, don't talk to me like that.
You know the girl that
you was telling me about?
The heavyset one.
Ma, I told her she was fat.
I just told her the truth.
That wasn't nice.
Listen, 41 years old,
I'm bald and I'm overweight,
I'm not out here saying I'm a 10, okay?
You gotta be realistic out here.
Yeah, but you could have
spoken to her a little bit nicer.
Come on, I raised you better than that.
All right, Ma, I apologize, I'm sorry.
So what you up to?
What you doing? What you been up to?
I'm doing stuff, you know, work.
Are you still traveling?
Mm-hmm.
So what country are you in this time?
(Virgil chuckling)
Um, I'm in United States
of America. I'm in Florida.
You in Florida?
So are you on the phone talking
to your groupie on your live?
Mother, if that's all
you had to call for,
can I call you back when I'm free?
Yeah, but don't be a stranger, okay?
All right.
[Gladys] Okay.
- Love you.
- Love you too, baby.
Talk to you later.
(water sloshing)
Ah, ooh.
Ah.
(Virgil sighing)
(Virgil sniffing)
Hey, man, shit is real rough
right now in my life.
And the bills are stacking up.
I figured, I figured I'd reach out to you
to see if you could maybe help me.
You know, like they said,
two heads is better than one.
So I figured maybe we could
put our heads together and-
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Pause, first of all.
Second of all, listen, look,
gotta understand something now, man.
Well, you got bills, everybody got bills.
Everybody got the same 24 in a day.
It's what you doing with your 24.
Yeah, man, I used to have a
real bad problem with alcohol.
I'll get a caramel latte.
[Richard] I spent all my money
on alcohol and scratch-off.
Yeah, drizzle the whipped
cream. Sorry about that.
Hold on real quick. Yeah, thank you.
I'm sorry, what'd you said?
I was pretty much drunk
for three months straight.
Yeah, it's really hard out here.
See, that sounds like excuses.
And as men, we can't, we can't
live with excuses, all right?
So what you gotta do is you gotta man up.
As hard as it is to say, you gotta man up!
What's your name again?
- My name is Richard Smith.
Richard Smith.
Okay, Richard Smith,
you'll have to learn the hardest lesson
in life I ever had to learn, okay?
And that's everything
in life that you want,
you have it right now.
Everything you want, you have it.
Like what? I don't have
shit in my life, man!
Exactly, that's the point.
How is that a good thing?
I got no money! I got no woman!
I got no kids!
And I can barely afford to live in this
fucking crappy apartment I have.
I feel like I'm on the fucking edge
of going back to drinking.
All right, so let me bring
it down to you like this.
Everything that you have in your life
is 'cause you wanted it.
Now, if it doesn't make you happy,
you have to want more.
- I do want more.
- No, you don't.
I do want more! I want
more for myself, yes!
If you wanted it, you would have it,
and you would attract it.
- How is this life? Really?
See, what you gotta
understand is success
is not something that is pursued,
it's something that is attracted.
You have to attract success
by being the best version of you.
And right now, you're not
the best version of you.
So you can't expect to attract success.
And since you're, since
you're such an expert
in all this, I wanted to see,
I wanted to see how I can
attract success like you did.
(Virgil chuckling)
Okay, Richard, listen.
First thing you gotta do is
you gotta work on yourself.
Self-improvement is the most
important thing to a human
and the most valuable thing.
It's more valuable than
money, self-improvement.
'Cause the more you improve on yourself,
the more valuable you become, Richard!
Do you understand? The
more valuable you become.
Now, you are an asset.
You have skills, you have talent,
you have ambition to
go along with it, okay?
Right now, all I hear is excuses.
I don't mean to be hard on you,
but I'm trying to tell you how it is.
That's why you called me.
- I mean, yeah,
I get everything you're saying and all,
and it, it sounds really good.
I just, I just don't know if I can do it.
But, but how, how am I
gonna be able to apply this?
Hmm, all right, well.
Like y-you, you're really good at this.
Listen to you! I could
just hear your aura.
And, and I'm not that good.
I don't think I could do this.
How am I gonna be able to do this?
I don't even believe in myself sometimes.
Ever since I was a kid, I
had low self-confidence.
It got fucking worse as I grew up, man!
And having no girlfriend,
no kids, no fucking home.
Seeing everybody I work
with have more than me,
you know how fucking disgusting that is?
I feel like a piece of shit!
I am seriously, sometimes...
This isn't your problem.
You're not my therapist.
I can't even afford a therapist.
Richard, ah, I'm gonna look you up.
Let me see what package you got
so I can see how far this
conversation could go.
Oh man, all right.
All right, you, you gotta upgrade
to the Platinum package for this,
but I'm gonna give it to you
just 'cause I like your style.
So the first thing you gotta
do is working on discipline.
You said you got alcohol problems.
That means you have a discipline problem,
not an alcohol problem, okay?
You have a problem with
discipline, Richard.
Yes, you're right.
I have a problem with discipline.
I've always had a problem
with discipline in my life.
I always did.
- Exactly, so ah, ah!
So let's work, let's stop right now,
and let's work on discipline,
and let's exercise discipline
through alcoholism, right?
Every day you're sober,
that's one more day you're disciplined.
That's one more day you're
able to attract success.
Now, if you don't take
this and listen to this,
you don't wanna be successful, Richard.
And there's nothing I
can do or you can do.
So please do us both a favor
and let's work on discipline!
I can start tomorrow.
I am deserving.
I am deserving.
That's my man, Richard!
That's what I wanna hear, man.
You're on the right
track, Richard, all right?
But look, like I said, upgrade
to that Platinum package,
and you never know, might
get a one-on-one sit-down.
Are you serious?
You're not, I can't afford that.
Yeah, I can introduce
you to some of my peoples,
some of my connects.
That would be so cool!
We'll start diving into
what is your interest in life,
what are your talents, what
is your God-given gift, okay?
That's, that's what we're gonna do.
So upgrade to that Platinum package, okay?
So you can get the sit-down,
you can get the fundraiser, okay?
'Cause I believe in you, Richard,
even if you don't believe in yourself.
Oh my God, that would make my year,
probably my life, man!
You literally are an angel on this earth.
Okay, all right, so
you hear what I'm saying?
Are you feeling me or
what's going on? What?
Yeah, I hear everything you're saying.
All right, I'm gonna
start applying it all.
I'm gonna take everything
you said into account.
I'm going to hold myself accountable
every single day, one day at a time.
Discipline, yes, one day at a time.
So one day that I don't drink,
that's one day consistent.
I understand that totally.
Two days, and I will go back to zero,
but I promise you that
I will make you proud.
I will make myself proud.
And I'm gonna call you back,
and I'm gonna tell you
how successful I am,
and how much this changed my life!
All right, Richard, listen, please do.
I'm waiting for your call.
Don't disappoint me, Richard, all right?
I really appreciate
this. Have a great day.
[Virgil] All right, Rich.
Oh my God, Richard, you're
not a fucking dickhead anymore.
They're not gonna make fun of you anymore!
I'm gonna fucking do this.
I'm finally gonna wear you out.
Oh my God, I gotta...
(footsteps stomping)
(phone ringing)
(laughs) It's my guy.
Nigel, what's going on, brother?
Yo, my man, Virgil.
What's going on, brother?
Sound like you working out,
man. Trying to stay in shape?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but you know,
I'm never too busy for my
clients, what's going on?
Yeah, I had to holler at you, man.
Uh, got a little bit of adversity.
You know, I'm dating
this chick, fine piece,
but she got three baby daddies,
and she got a kid by each of them.
And this shit is wearing on me, bro.
I mean, she's a bad
motherfucker and all that.
Six-figure job, treats me like a king.
All that, poom poom was bananas.
But I just can't take
this baby daddy shit, man.
I feel like I'm about
to bust off on somebody.
Nigel, I'm, I'm a
little disappointed, man.
I'm a little disappointed.
I, I can't believe you fell
for the step daddy thrash on me.
What's going on with you, man?
I'm trying to get you
to be a high-value guy,
and, and you're running around here
with dealing with women
with three baby fathers.
That are keeping it from you and lying is,
and lying to you about it.
Nigel, it's not what we worked on.
It's not what we practiced, okay?
I've been a victim to,
you know, chasing your dick
and, and then hopefully for you,
it doesn't end in a venereal disease
or an STD, Nigel, okay?
You gotta grow up!
Three baby fathers, it means there's a lot
of fucking raw that she's doing, okay?
She's in that habit,
brother. Come on, man.
I talked about this already.
Before I do something stupid, man,
I had to holler at you and um,
I knew you'd talk me off a ledge.
You know what, she failed all the tests.
She got kids, right?
What'd she do for a living?
Does it, she has a career, doesn't she?
I bet she has a career. (Sighs) Nigel.
I knew you was gonna spit
the truth and keep it real.
I, I know you disappointed, bro.
But when I tell you this
pussy is magically delicious,
like Lucky Charles, man, I'm, (scoffs)
She reeled me in.
I'm a, I'm, I'm a real fish right now.
Listen, you know what you can do?
This is what you can do.
So you gonna fuck that
pussy and call me later.
I'll holler at you.
(phone tinkling)
Fucking idiot.
(introspective music)
(Virgil breathing heavily)
(door clicking)
Nigel, disappointed.
(footsteps plodding)
(introspective music continues)
(footsteps plodding continues)
(sanitizer dispenser whizzing)
(hands rustling)
(introspective music continues)
(Virgil exhaling heavily)
(phone vibrating)
Ooh, Renee!
Hello?
Hey, Virgil.
What's up, girl?
Nothing much, um.
I was thinking I could
come see you and you know,
I got this sexy outfit
that I wanna put on.
Oh, really? Hopefully, it ain't much.
No, it ain't much.
I ain't gonna have nothing on, nothing.
You like that, Daddy?
I like to hear that.
Nice, so what you trying to do?
So I'm trying to come over around like
9:00 or 10:00,
and you know, we can eat in.
And then after that, I
could be your dessert.
(Virgil laughing)
I'd love that!
So um, all right, nine o'clock.
I'll pick you up or you coming through?
Nah, I'm gonna come through.
But could you bring some wine?
Oh yeah, definitely, whatever you need.
What you want? That's it, just wine?
And some strawberries and whipped cream.
I wanna try something real fun with that.
Oh, I like the sound of that.
All right, I'm free.
All right, love.
(door clicking)
Oh yeah, look, when you get here,
I'm gonna, uh, just come straight up.
I'll let the people in the Front Desk know
and send you up, all right?
Okay, see you then.
All right.
Yeah, it's about to be
on tonight. (Chuckles)
Fuck I'm gonna wear?
So I think I'm, I'm gonna wear...
Mm, let me see.
Ah!
(sighs) Let's see what I
got in the Virgil Closet.
(lighthearted music)
Baby, give me a sign
Don't leave me blind
Baby, just want your heart
I don't need the nonsense
'Cause you, girl, you got me
You got me on that stuff
I just want your mind
Give me a conscience
Give me some time
I promise I'm not him
You are, you are, you are
One in a million
(dispenser clicking)
Girl, you came to me broken
And I can't seem to find the pieces
To your heart
To your heart, nah, nah, ah, ah
So sit and try to fix you
And put together back
what someone tore apart
They tore apart
Hit my line when I hit you up
Come on, fine, I'm gonna pick you up
I ain't really gotta go say too much
Did you know how we are
(door thudding)
Baby, girl, you're a star
Shit.
(sewing machine rattling)
(sewing machine clicking)
Really, Erica?
So this is what you
call being on your way?
What you doing, Erica?
[Erica] I said I was on my way, right?
That was over an hour ago, Erica.
Okay, I was on my way!
You know I have to finish
this. The show is tomorrow!
I'm already stressed out.
How did you get here?
I took an Uber.
A Uber, Aaron?
- Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
- A fucking Uber?
Wasn't it you the one that told us that,
"Oh, we, we gotta watch our, our budget
because, uh, we gotta buy a house.
We're getting older, we need to plan.
We need a backyard, we need land?"
What's all of that for?
What's all of that for, Erica?
You were supposed to be
where I was over an hour ago.
I said I was on my way, okay?
You just wasted money on an Uber
when I literally was on my way!
I'm fully dressed, babe.
I was literally about to
finish this, hop in the car,
and speed to come get you!
You're a liar.
A liar?
- Yeah.
- Who are you calling a liar?
Who are you calling a liar?
I know you're not talking to me! A liar?
You got some nerve talking about a liar.
I do not lie!
To tell somebody that
you're gonna do something
and you don't do it is a lie, sweetheart.
Okay, guess I'm a liar then.
You know what? It's
cool, don't even trip.
I'm gonna go take a walk.
Take a walk?
You just got here!
Are you hungry?
Yeah, make me something.
"Make me something. Make me something."
I'm a liar.
Am I a liar?
(Erica exhaling heavily)
(keypad clicking)
(relaxing music)
(phone ringing)
Hi, is this Virgil?
- Yes, who is this?
- This is Erica.
Erica, how you doing?
I'm doing good.
Okay, so what's going
on? What you got for me?
First, I'm sorry, I didn't
mean to cut you off,
but what, I gotta look you up.
Your name is Erica what?
- Erica Wade, it's W-A-D-E.
Let me look you up.
Are you Platinum, Gold?
Do you know your package?
I think I'm a Gold package.
All right, all right.
Okay, all right.
Yeah, so I was hoping
you could help me out.
I'm always having this really bad argument
with my boyfriend all the time,
and he never seems to compromise on this.
He tells me that I'm lying all the time.
I don't really lie.
I might tell, like, a little
white lie here and there,
but he's always telling me that I'm lying
about what time I'm gonna be there,
and if I'm late, and if I'm lying
about being on my way,
or, or if I was on my way
I would already be there.
I don't, I don't know,
something like that.
Okay, um, sorry,
but you gotta stop at some point, right?
Um, okay, so you and your boyfriend
is talking about you lying
or lying in the relationship?
No, he says that I'm a liar.
- Just in general?
- Yes.
Well, that people lie all the time.
And something about me
picking him up from work,
and I said I was on my way,
and I technically was on my way,
but I kinda took a long time
to get off the sewing machine.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Let's stop right there.
You said you was gonna be
somewhere at a certain time,
and you wasn't there, is that correct?
Yes, but that's because
I had a few things to do.
Like, okay, so I have a
fashion show tomorrow.
He knows about it, okay?
And he asked me to pick him up from work.
His work is about, I don't
know, maybe 10 minutes away.
I was literally finishing my last stitch,
and he comes busting in the door
with an attitude, what, yelling at me.
Well, he wasn't yelling,
but he technically,
he, he had a yelling tone in his face
about me not being there.
(Virgil munching)
And he took a Uber after
he told me so many times,
"We have to cut back on our spending,
and I can't be taking Ubers,
so you have to pick me up from work."
Okay, all right, so let
me ask you this question.
(Virgil gulping)
What do you do for a living?
I am a wardrobe designer.
So I make the clothes, and then
I have to bring 'em on set,
and dress the people, you know?
So I'm pretty busy.
Um, just, just to ask,
are you Black, white, Latin, Latina?
Like, what's the deal?
Black.
Okay, um, all right, so
you're a designer, okay?
Let's say Rihanna wants you to style her
and be there by seven o'clock,
what time do you get there?
Oh, I'm gonna be there at seven o'clock.
See, you should have said 6:30
because you wanna be early, right?
On time is late.
That's what my pops used to tell me.
And that's how I used to get
to everywhere on time, right?
So if you on time, that
means you get there at 7:00.
That means you late.
Early, 7:45, you know?
6:45, 6:30, that's when
you wanna get somewhere
when you on time, right?
So you said you was gonna be some,
and if it was Rihanna, me
and you both know you
would've been there on time.
Yeah, but that's
different. That's Rihanna.
[Virgil] That means you value Rihanna
more than you value your boyfriend,
and you haven't even met her!
No, I'm not saying that.
I'm just saying it's-
No, no, no.
That's what you're saying.
Oh, not in those words exactly.
All right, what I'm saying is that
if I have to be on time,
I don't wanna miss that opportunity.
I mean, if Rihanna calls me,
that's different than me picking
up my boyfriend from work.
He works 10 minutes away.
He could have waited in the parking lot.
It's not really a big deal
'cause I know he wasn't rushing anywhere.
He was coming home to do nothing!
Okay, (throat clears)
So when y'all have to go somewhere
and be there on time, you're there, right?
So it sounds like to me, you're
valuing where you have to go
more than your boyfriend.
You're valuing Rihanna
more than your boyfriend.
Places you have to be with
your boyfriend on time
more than you value him.
Like, did you ever think,
what did he have to do
to be available at that time for you?
I feel like if he really
had somewhere to go,
he would've said, "Babe, be here
at exactly blah, blah, blah."
You know how some people know someone
is gonna be late all the time,
and then they tell that
person an hour early?
If he had somewhere to really be,
he would probably do that, right?
Um, listen, I looked at your package,
and you're Silver package.
So I, I, if you wanna upgrade,
we can, we can do the upgrade,
and we can get more in depth,
but right now, I'm telling you,
you're valuing everything
else more than your boyfriend.
If you wanna keep him, start to value him,
appreciate him, thank him.
Be on time!
[Erica] Okay, so I'm gonna
upgrade to the next package.
[Virgil] You're about
to upgrade right now?
Yep, just did. Did you see it?
Nope, oh, just came
through. Okay, all right.
So this is the first thing we wanna do.
We wanna grow, right?
So if you wanna grow as a human,
that means you have to admit your flaws
and your faults so you can get over them.
You just said you'll go to Rihanna
and you'll be there at seven o'clock.
That's a flaw, that's a problem
because if someone tells you to be there
and they have a great opportunity for you,
you should be there early.
Well, let me ask you this, if
I gave you a million dollars,
would you be happy?
Absolutely!
Okay, now, what if I
gave you $10 million?
Would you be happy?
Hell yeah! Who wouldn't
be happy with $10 million?
And you would accept that money gladly?
Yes, gladly!
Let me ask you this question.
Now, if I told you after I give
you this $10 million, right,
after that day's over, you die,
do you still get the $10 million?
Do you still want it?
No, why would I? No.
You would not what?
No, I wouldn't take
the money if I had to...
Like, what kinda question is that?
Okay, there we go, right?
Because your life
is more valuable than $10 million.
Waking up that next day was more valuable
than that $10 million.
So what you just said, that
means money is no object.
It's about value.
That's what this life is
about, it's about value.
And $10 million is not worth as much
as waking up the next day.
Okay?
Okay.
So just value your man, listen to him,
and, and trust me, y'all,
y'all gonna be good.
Okay, so can I ask
you one more question?
How do I stop him from calling me a liar?
Stop lying, okay?
Just stop lying.
It doesn't matter if it's a big lie,
it doesn't matter if it's
a small lie, stop lying.
Lying, okay, humans work on habits,
humans work on repetition.
If you have the habit of lying,
of making very small lies
(scissors snipping)
That you feel in your mind
that your opinion don't
really matter like that,
it's a bad habit.
It's only gonna leak over
to other aspects of life.
All right, so fuck all lying shit
because we ain't never
gonna agree on that.
I need you to teach me
how to be successful.
Okay, if you wanna be successful,
if you wanna be diligent in life,
you have to have good habits,
and lying is not a good habit.
Lying about where you're at,
how long you're gonna be there,
what time you're gonna get
there, those are all lies!
Look, I already told you about the lies.
I don't wanna talk about
that no more, all right?
We're never gonna agree.
And I don't take too kindly to
two people calling me a liar.
All right, so now,
we're at the stage in the
conversation where we're gonna,
it's the make or break stage.
Are you gonna grow or are you gonna just
stay the same, right?
Do you lie?
All right, this is not
what I spent my money for,
but if you want to know if I lie, no,
I don't feel like I lie, all right?
It's just the things that
happen between me and my boo
is just many miscommunications.
It's not that big of a deal.
Terrible, this is a problem we gotta fix
'cause we just said that you lied.
Even if it's a small lie,
don't specify the lie.
"Oh, it's just a small lie.
Oh, I said I was gonna be
there and traffic came."
We already said that if
it was a million dollars
that you would've got there on time.
- Yeah.
- So now, I'm gonna ask you
one more time, do you lie?
Yeah, I guess I'm a fucking liar!
I just never thought
about it like that! (Sobs)
See, there you go. It's not that hard.
That's the first step to stopping it.
Just admit it. Yo, listen, look!
I lie, I lie. I said, "Yo, call you back."
I said, "I'm coming
through," I'm lying, right?
I know that sometimes,
but that is why I can get better
'cause I do know I'm lying, and I fix it.
If there's a leak coming in the ceiling,
and it's leaking, and it's
leaking, and it's leaking,
and you don't acknowledge the leak
or say, "Oh, this is a leak,"
your house is gonna get
flooded, it's gonna be ruined.
So it's like your
relationship is the house,
and you've got a leak, all right?
Wow, Virgil, this is really good.
Thank you so much.
This is gonna help me out in
my whole life and everything.
I really appreciate you for this.
Yep, yep, and um, that is
you at the Platinum stage.
There's one more thing we can do,
and I think we can get an actual sit-down.
You know what I mean, so
if there was something
you wanted to do, let me know.
We get to the next level,
and we go from there.
You know what? I'm gonna
go Platinum right now.
Matter of fact, my boyfriend
needs to meet you too.
I'm gonna go Platinum for both of us.
(keyboard clicking)
Okay.
- All right, thank you.
Thank you.
(Erica sighing)
(keys clinking)
(relaxing music)
(door creaking)
(door thudding)
Babe.
Hi.
- What's up?
What's up?
- How was your walk?
It's good.
You feel better?
I do.
Okay, um, I'm sorry.
Well, I've been thinking,
and you were right.
- About what?
- Me being a liar.
- Okay.
- Okay, maybe I,
I, okay, I do lie, and I'm sorry.
And to make it up to you, I have decided
to give you a nice massage tonight.
- Okay.
- You know?
Chill on the couch, cuddle up.
How's that sound?
- Sounds good to me.
Okay, so give me five more
minutes to finish up work and-
Five minutes?
Um, okay, 25 minutes?
(relaxing music)
That's cool.
- Okay.
- So I got enough time
to go take a shower?
- Mm-hmm.
- All right, cool.
(Erica smooching)
Be right back. Good luck.
(relaxing music continues)
Yo, babe!
- Yeah.
You really gonna give me a massage?
[Erica] Yep.
[Aaron] Woo-hoo!
(Erica chuckling)
(pensive music)
[Friend] What the fuck?
(Virgil laughing)
What, you must have some sort
of, like, crazy sixth sense
or something.
(shutter clicking)
- (laughs) Oh, I have.
- Dude, I'm FaceTiming you
right now because you have to see this.
Okay. (Laughs)
Oh, what?
[Friend] It's literally typing!
I'm literally fucking typing right now.
Wow, that's crazy.
[Friend] Come on, bro.
- That's crazy.
- You should get in there.
I don't know how did you do that?
Yo, actually, I'm like, yo,
let me call Josh, remind him.
[Friend] I, I like I
was scrolling through.
I leave, like, messages unread
so that, like, on Monday,
I know to, like, go back and you know?
Right.
[Friend] And I completely
forgot to send it
when I got back to my
house on Friday.
- Okay.
- When I spoke to you.
- And I called.
And I'll call about this too.
I'm like, "Yo, make sure you
send that off, okay?" (laughs)
- Amazing.
- Amazing.
That's how you know this thing
is gonna be a great thing.
All right, so, um, I love you, kiddo.
I'm gonna call, I'm
gonna talk to you soon.
- All right, bro.
- All right.
- Later.
- Out.
(foreboding music)
I got this crazy feeling like, you know,
I feel like somebody watching me.
Yeah, nah, maybe I'm just bugging.
Maybe I'm just bugging.
(foreboding music continues)
(door clicking)
Yeah, another gift from a fan, huh?
(door clicking)
Oh! Shit, what the fuck?
Ew, that's disgusting. Yo, what the fuck?
What's wrong with these people, man?
Oh, shit. Yo, hell no!
What the fuck? Yo.
(dial pad beeping)
(phone ringing)
This is bugging!
- Hello, Front Desk.
- Yeah, hello, Front Desk?
Hey, yo, look, my man, I got roaches,
and I got shit at the front door.
[Front Desk] Uh, roaches?
Yes, roaches and shit at my door!
[Front Desk] Oh, I, I'm sorry.
This is unacceptable Mr. Virgil.
I spent way too much money in this place
to be going through shit like this.
I need somebody come up
here and fix this now!
And I need another room!
[Front Desk] Okay, absolutely,
Mr. Virgil, immediately.
All right, yeah.
- Sorry for the inconvenience.
- Thank you.
You kidding me?
(Virgil breathing heavily)
(sensual music)
(phone ringing)
Hey, what's up, love?
Hey, what's going on, girl?
You almost ready for me, huh?
Yeah, I'm ready.
I'm just waiting on you.
Yeah, all right, um, look.
There's a little change
in the, um, in the room.
You know what I mean, I
want to change up the room
a little bit, so when you
get to the Front Desk,
I already said that, you know,
you could just give them your name,
and they gonna let you
straight up, all right?
All right, that's cool with me.
You know what? So I'm so ready for you.
I'm just wondering, you have any idea
what dress you want me to put on?
(laughs) Um, wear that dress
you had the see-through on?
I like that one. That
was, that was good, yeah.
All right, cool. I got you, baby.
All right, I'm gonna see
you soon then, all right?
But look, you know, I
gotta go do these lives.
You know, I gotta get
this paper, all right?
Yeah, I know you gotta do your stuff,
but just make sure you
ready for me, all right?
- All right.
- Just know when I see you,
I'm gonna do that trick
I've been telling you about.
Oh my God, are you serious? (Laughs)
I can't, ah, I can't wait
to see you, all right?
Oh, she is crazy.
Yo, what's going on, man?
Yeah, y'all live. Oh look,
they coming in the building.
Yeah, they coming in the building.
Throw them hundreds, yeah,
throw them hundreds up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. It's big Virgil, man.
We in the building, the number
one life coach consultant.
I am the guy.
You wanna get your life straight,
come and see me, all right?
I could change your whole life.
Y'all already know this, all right?
So today, we got a big, big word,
and it's only five letters,
it's called trust, all right?
This is a word that you
gotta get familiar with.
In this life, in this world,
you gotta learn how to trust people.
You know what I mean,
this is something that...
It's, it's, it's a lesson,
it's a hard lesson.
And you're gonna lose,
and, and, and there's
no guarantees in life,
but you gotta take a chance,
and you gotta learn how to trust people.
You know what I'm
saying? So wait, hold on.
Um, "Virgil, I thought, I
thought you didn't trust nobody."
(Virgil laughing)
No, so all right. So
that's personally, right?
So when I say that, I mean, you,
you can't trust nobody
with your vision, right?
'Cause it's yours.
No one's gonna see your vision like you.
No one's gonna execute it like you
'cause it's your vision, right?
But in business, you gotta trust.
You gotta learn how to get a team.
And that's people's biggest downfall
in this, in this, in this world.
Like, they don't understand that they try
to get everything for they self.
Like, these people wanna
have you around, milk you,
get whatever they can get from you,
and then make all the
money all by they self,
but that's not gonna work, you understand?
Like, I'd rather have a
piece of the water in it,
watermelon than the whole grape.
You, you, you understand what I'm saying?
So that's, that's a key thing.
And even in relationships, right?
Without trust, and it's
for all my relationship,
people that need help
in their relationship,
you gotta trust.
I was talking to a young lady,
I think it was last week,
and she had trust issues.
And I knew that if she didn't
get over those trust issues,
she was gonna ruin her relationship.
You know what I'm saying, so um, yeah,
trust, loyalty, and, and honesty.
Honesty is one of the biggest policies,
you know what I'm saying?
Like, you gotta, gotta be
honest with each other,
you know what I mean?
So, um, you know, I'm not gonna
be on here for a long time.
I'm just, oh, hell no, are you...
Wait, hold up.
All right, um, that was
my message for the night.
I, I gotta go.
You know, Virgil's busy.
I gotta get crazy, right?
All right, so I love y'all.
Remember trust, that's the key, all right?
(keypad clicking)
(Renee scoffing)
Got me fucked up.
(phone ringing)
(foreboding music)
Hey, what's going on?
What, what, what happened?
What happened?
What happened is I come,
and there's a bitch in your room.
What the fuck you got going on?
- What?
- What you mean what? Yeah.
Who is that? Your girlfriend?
Yeah, your girlfriend?
- I don't have a girlfriend.
What are you talking about?
What I'm talking about?
You about to piss me off, yo.
I get in there.
The girl's sitting on your
bed in some damn lingerie.
Whoa, are you serious?
Listen, I'm telling you,
I don't have a girlfriend.
You must have been to the wrong room.
I don't know, but please just come back.
So I'm stupid?
No, I didn't go to the wrong room.
You told me room 520.
520, shit.
Uh, damn, I don't know
what you're talking about.
Oh wow, now you don't
know what I'm talking about?
Hold on, wait, wait.
No, no, don't hang up.
Get off my phone.
(dial tone beeping)
Dang.
Yo, what the fuck?
(puzzling music)
(Virgil groaning)
Yeah.
(puzzling music continues)
I like this.
Nice little balcony, huh?
Yo, on.
They step me up.
All right.
Call from there. It's good luck here, man.
For real.
(dial pad beeping)
(phone ringing)
[Front Desk] Hello, Front Desk.
Yo, yo, hi. What's up, man?
Yo, the Deluxe?
- Yeah.
- Bro, wait,
this is on y'all, right?
Y'all taking care of me or what?
[Front Desk] Absolutely.
Oh, and your girlfriend stopped by.
My what?
[Front Desk] Your girlfriend?
Um, I don't have no girlfriend.
You never seen me with no girl before?
What you talking about?
[Front Desk] Okay, sorry
for the mistake, sir.
Yeah.
[Front Desk] Okay.
What she look like?
[Front Desk] I couldn't
really see, she had a hoodie on.
Hmm, nah, so I don't have a girlfriend.
[Front Desk] Okay,
sorry for the mix-up, sir.
Okay, thank you.
Check the cameras, do something
'cause this is crazy, all right?
[Front Desk] Okay, sure.
All right.
Man, that's the craziest
setup. Someone is sick.
(notification chiming)
What the fuck?
(flesh squelching)
(suspenseful music)
Fuck.
(suspenseful music continues)
What the fuck? I can't feel shit.
I can't feel my legs. I
can't feel my hands, nothing!
What was that?
[Attacker] That's 'cause I paralyzed you
from the neck down, bitch.
Yo, who are you? I don't know you!
[Attacker] (chuckles)
Oh, you know me very well.
(bell tolling)
Hello? Hey, yeah, sorry.
Sorry, I was, I was in church.
I couldn't, uh, I couldn't,
I saw your messages,
I got all your messages,
and I just wanted to say, I
can't wait for you to start,
you know, putting these things into motion
so you could start seeing
the immediate benefit.
Yeah, thank you so much, Virgil.
You understand, this is so amazing.
I appreciate all the great advice.
Like, I'm going into
that meeting tomorrow,
and I'm telling my boss what it is.
I don't care what he says.
I'm chasing my dream.
I'm gonna risk it all.
And it's all thanks to you, Virgil.
And I'm so happy, thank you so much.
You don't understand.
(Virgil laughing)
Yeah, listen, look,
I, I love the energy,
I love the spirit, okay?
But we really gotta consider, like,
starting to level up the packages though.
You know what I mean, like,
we really want to get in that
Platinum package area,
you know what I mean,
where we can really,
really push the envelope
and, and get things going, all right?
So, um, I'm happy you're happy,
and, and let's, let's do it.
Okay, all right, um, I
would love to, to level up
and get the next package.
Like, your advice really helps me so much.
Like, I'm looking forward
to the future, Virgil.
Thank you so much.
I, I love it. Thank you.
All right, hello? What was that?
(Toya chuckling)
Yeah, I think he just said he loved us.
Hello?
That was weird.
[Toya] Um, does the name Toya
ring a bell to you?
Oh my God.
[Toya] Yeah.
- Shit.
- Exactly.
I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry.
[Toya] You ain't sorry.
All the advice you gave me,
all the sweet advice you gave me,
not!
- Sorry.
Sorry, please, please.
[Toya] Virgil, you ruined my life.
You know, I wanna do it,
but you know, I got a lot of things to do.
I'm always so busy, I'm just really tired,
and I just can't seem to get to it.
Virgil, you know how
it is when you're busy,
you just got so much to do,
and then it's just like, it
becomes very overwhelming,
and then you can't just,
can't get anything and-
Oh, look, look.
I'm gonna stop you right here, okay?
It sounds like you're lazy, all right?
And you're not focused.
Until you learn how to
do those two things,
you're basically gonna be a failure.
Yeah, this, this is what we gonna do.
We gonna make this real cut,
dry, and clean, and simple.
But I'm not lazy, Virgil,
and I'm very focused.
I was more focused before I started
taking your advice, but...
And that's very hurtful for you to say
'cause I thought, you know,
we built a bond these last couple weeks,
and I thought that you
really understood me
and knew where I was coming from.
And then you also told me you love me.
And when you love someone, you,
you don't treat someone
you love like this.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, love you?
Yo, I never said I love you.
What are you talking about?
Are you crazy or something?
Yo, look, your coworkers might have been
onto something here, all right?
I didn't say I love you,
I said I love your energy.
No, okay, yes, you did
say you love my energy,
but you also said, I,
you said, "I love you,"
and like, wish, don't,
Virgil, act like we didn't,
we haven't, we shared, like, a bond,
like, a connection these
last few weeks, like-
All right, listen, all right?
If you wanna get the services,
if you wanna upgrade,
get the packages, then I'm,
I'm, I'm good with that, okay?
But you're taking this to a level
that I'm not trying to go to, all right?
Well, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I mean, I mean, I don't
know if I wanna upgrade
because when I upgraded that, I got,
I lost my job, you know?
So, you know, as two
people who love each other
'cause you love me, I-
Yo, love each other?
I just told you I don't,
I never said that.
I didn't say I love you, I don't love you.
This is what we gonna do, all right?
We're gonna make this easy.
I'm gonna disable your account.
I'm gonna block you on everything.
There is no me and you.
There never was and there
never will be, okay?
You understand that?
Oh, she's crazy.
I'm blocking.
I'm not crazy.
I'm not crazy. He said it.
He said...
(foreboding music)
[Echo] We have to get revenge.
He's told, he said
he loved me, remember?
He said he loved me.
[Mimic] Yeah, I remember.
I'm not crazy.
[Echo] We have to get revenge.
Right, so we gotta, we gotta,
we gotta pay him back.
We gotta get him back
for what he took from us.
You're such an ungrateful son of a bitch.
Eat this chocolate.
You ain't even say thank you for that.
Eat it! Eat the damn chocolate!
You know, I sacrificed
a lot, a lot for you!
All you do is fucking criticize
people and ridicule them.
All you think is you're
just so fucking perfect,
don't you?
- No, no.
[Toya] Something, you know what?
Something for all of us.
- Come on, come on, please.
[Toya] I got something for the ass.
Please.
[Toya] I told my brother
to call you for advice,
and the advice you gave
him is to kill himself?
My brother was a good man,
and he just needed help,
and I told him to call you.
And what advice did you give him?
You gave him some bullshit advice.
Only advice you gave
him was to kill himself!
[Virgil] I didn't tell
him to commit suicide.
That's just what he ended up doing.
[Toya] That was my brother.
(gunshot cracking)
(suspenseful music)
(suspenseful music continues)
(label thudding)
[Echo] Nobody wants you anymore.
Nobody loves you. Nobody
wants to be around you.
Loved you, Virgil.
It's a lot of...
Told me all the lies
just to buy your dumb packages.
[Mimic] He used you.
He know what he was doing.
I done lose my job.
Made me without friends.
Nobody wants to be around me.
Everybody thinks I'm crazy.
I loved you.
[Echo] You have to
get revenge for Daryl.
Shut up! You too, just...
Can y'all both please
be quiet? I can't think!
[Mimic] He doesn't love us.
I need to be, I need quiet, okay?
[Echo] He doesn't love us anymore.
He didn't just break my heart!
He broke all of our hearts!
[Mimic] He doesn't love us anymore?
Suffer, I'll make him feel pain.
Somebody said, "Can, yo, Virgil,
can you drop a jewel of the day?"
I like that, all right, jewel of the day.
It's about what do you want out of life.
Okay.
- Everything you got
coming to you, Virgil.
Just know you have everything you want.
Just want more, all right?
- Shut up!
'Cause you do nothing but lie!
[Virgil] I'm gonna let y'all
know, explain it exactly.
Awesome, he loves me. (Sniffs)
He loves us, amazing, hmm.
So I'm gonna make him feel all this pain.
[Mimic] He has to love us.
Shut up! He loves us, he loves us.
(Toya chuckling)
I'll make you feel the pain.
[Echo] He'll get what he deserves.
Yeah, Virgil broke my heart.
I'm gonna break yours.
If you don't wanna die, you listen to me.
- Okay.
- Okay?
All right, now this is what you gonna do.
You gonna tell all your little fans
that believe in you
that you've been lying
to them this whole time,
and that everything you've been saying
is not the truth, okay?
Now, come on, this is gonna ruin me!
Hmm, well, you gonna tell them
that your advice is bullshit!
All right?
Now,
(suspenseful music intensifies)
This is what's gonna happen.
Now, I'm gonna press Live,
and you're gonna say exactly
what I need you to say.
You understand me?
Scamming them of their money
with your stupid packages and shit.
I can't believe I fell in love with you.
I loved you, Virgil.
You, you broke my heart.
So you gonna say everything
I need you to say,
you understand me?
- Yeah, I understand.
No, mm-mm.
For some reason, I just don't believe you.
I need you to make me believe you, Virgil.
[Virgil] I can't even fucking move.
Hmm, good.
Good boy.
Now,
don't try
any bullshit while you're
on the live, all right?
All right, okay.
[Toya] I'm not playing with you.
- Okay.
- All right.
All right, I'm gonna go live
in three, two, don't you try nothing,
you understand me?
Yes!
[Toya] Hmm, you look good
in the sweater I got you.
Hopefully it doesn't end
up with some blood on it.
Okay, here we go.
(button chiming)
(suspenseful music)
Yo, what's up, y'all?
How y'all doing, man?
I just wanna let y'all know
all, (exhaling heavily)
Everything I've been doing, all the,
all the advice I've
been giving y'all, man,
it's been bullshit, all right?
I'm scamming y'all.
Everybody should just unsubscribe
and just please just...
It's all bullshit, man, all right?
I apologize, I'm sorry.
[Toya] Keep talking, motherfucker.
Tell 'em you're a fraud.
Tell 'em you're a fraud!
(gun clicking)
- Come on.
[Toya] Virgil, don't make me do it.
What the fuck?
(door slamming)
[Officer] Put the fuck your gun down!
Now!
- No, you put your
gun down first.
- Put the gun down now!
No!
- I'm not putting my gun down.
- Put the gun down!
- Virgil, I love you!
Virgil, I love you, no!
(gunshots popping)
(body thudding)
[Officer] Hey yo, you all right, man?
- Yeah, I'm good.
- You all right? You sure?
Yo, let's get a medic.
(police operator speaking indistinctly)
[Virgil] Y'all, I can't feel shit, man,

(siren wailing)
[Soldier] He's on the
left, down at the corner.
That's him.
(gunshots popping)
(bullet shells clinking)
(explosion booming)
[Soldier] I have the suspect in sight.
Follow, follow, there he goes.
Straight.
(door slamming)
Kill, kill, follow, follow.
(siren wailing)
- Daryl, what happened?
- You have PTSD.
Daryl, what happened? What's wrong?
[Echo] Post-traumatic stress disorder.
Daryl, what the hell? Again?
Daryl, you're not in the war no more.
No one's following you.
There's no bombs going on.
Yeah, I know they following
me. I know they following me.
Black truck, circled twice.
I know I'm not crazy.
Daryl, slow down. There's
nobody following you.
Nobody's here. It's just you and me.
Calm down, just take a seat, sit!
[Soldier] He's inside,
and he's with a female.
Calm down.
(gunshots popping)
Daryl, calm down. No one's following you.
It's just us. Look, all right?
Calm down, sit back.
They're following us.
You ain't see how they were looking at us?
There's nobody here.
It's just you and me right now, all right?
Let's practice what Mommy taught us.
Take a deep breath in, deep breath out.
Breathe in, breathe out.
Good, so chill.
Now, look, I think you
need to talk to that guy
I'm watching on the lives
all the time, Virgil.
Come on, he could help you.
I've watched him help so many people,
and I read the testimonies, like,
he could really get you through this.
I was you once, remember?
- Yeah, okay.
Look, look at me, I'm good.
Why you want me to call him so bad?
He's paying you for this?
No, he's not paying me for this,
but I watched him so much,
I know how good he is,
and I know he can help you.
- Mm-hmm.
- So I understand.
I think he's the real deal.
Yeah, you going mad hard for him.
I'm not going hard for him.
I'm, it's just you and me right now,
and I wanna help you, okay?
- Mm-hmm.
- All right,

and you gonna call, right?
- Yeah.
All right, I'm gonna head to work.
I have a meeting, and then
I'm gonna give you a call
just to check in.
- She gets cuts?
Okay, like, yes, okay!
Why you giving me that attitude?
I'm just trying to help you.
- 'Cause I heard.
You said it, like, 30 times.
I heard you, okay, go.
[Toya] All right, I'm
gonna hold you to it.
You better call.
Yo, could you go?
Like, you're dragging it.
[Toya] Don't be looking at me like that.
Oh, you not the one to play with
Girl, no

Looking for forever
For forever

(phone ringing)
Take a ride
That's why we clashing now, baby
[Al] Unknown caller.
Unknown- (phone tinkling)
What's going on? It's Virgil.
What's your name? Where you calling from?
It's Daryl from the Bronx.
What's up, Daryl from the Bronx?
Sound like you had a heavy
heart, man, what's up?
I don't even know where to start.
Well, just, just start from today.
I can't sleep.
I can't breathe.
Half the time, I, I
is in a war zone with now way out.
Look, man, I know
things seem impossible.
I promise you, there
there's a way to get
through it, all right?
Listen, God, He made you tough
enough to fight this battle.
Trust me, okay, Daryl?
I feel like going to heaven right now.
Heaven? Whoa, whoa.
Heaven is the greatest
place anyone could think of.
It's full of peace, and
happiness, and love,
but come on, brother,
you got a lot of work
to do right here, all right?
We got people to save right here!
The world needs you, Daryl. Come on, man.
(pen scratching)
Hello?
Daryl, you still there?
Yeah, thank you, Virgil.
Really appreciate you.
Okay, I, look, 'cause look-
So I know what to do now. Thank you.
We gotta talk about
the packages, all right?
'Cause, um, this thing here-
(dial tone beeping)
Hello?
Hello?
This motherfucker hung up.
Al, play the music.
(Al chiming)
(gunshot cracking)
(body thudding)
Oh
(groovy music)
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Yeah, yeah, baby, yeah
Yeah, yeah, baby, yeah
Oh oh oh
Baby, are you there now
When you come
'Cause it feels like forever
Since you been home
I think you made your point now
Yeah, it showed
You're not the one to play with
Girl, we know
Girl, you got me
soul-searching, keep diving
Looking for forever with you
Girl, you got me
soul-searching, keep diving
Looking for forever with you
You got me acting all crazy
Pull up, son, don't say nothing lazy
You got me in my back lately
You just seem to think you're right
That's all because
(relaxing music)
(Monica sighing)
(phone ringing)
Hello, how you doing? You
on the phone with Virgil.
What's going on?
Hi,
my name is Monica.
Okay, so you said your name is Monica?
Yeah, I'm 35 years old,
and I'm from Boston, Massachusetts.
I'm looking for a high-value man.
No kids or kids?
No kids.
No kids at 35, okay, all right.
Um, and what you do for a living?
I'm an attorney.
So I would imagine that
would mean you're never home.
No, like, never.
Oh, well, that's
problem number one, okay?
You're busy, you're making
all this money, all right?
Men don't really want that, okay?
You're, you're looking at a high-value man
and thinking that that's the same thing
that takes to be a high-value woman,
but in reality, it's the exact opposite.
I hear what you're saying,
but I need to find a man on my level.
I'm looking for someone
who can meet myself
where I am and meet my standard.
Your standards?
I'm tired of living leveling down.
I wanna level up.
[Virgil] Let me guess,
you're making six figures.
Yes, I'm making six figures.
I need someone who can
match that, if not more.
(Virgil chuckling)
So you think your six figures matters,
and that's the problem, okay?
Your six figures do not matter to a man
who's making six figures.
So you think that's where your value is,
but that's not where your value is.
Your value is in that womb
(lift tinkling)
And how good you could cook.
That's where your value's at.
What? That's ridiculous!
[Virgil] I mean, can you cook?
A lot of women these days
don't even know how to cook.
And if I can't cook,
what does that mean?
[Virgil] That's everything.
That's everything. What do you mean?
A man wants to come home from work,
get a good cooked meal,
wants his clothes cleaned,
the house looks good,
and that's just how
men work on that level.
Why can't we both do it
and, and share that responsibility?
Why can't he cook sometimes too?
Well, 'cause I'm out making
six figures, that's why.
That's what you want, right?
You want a man making six figures.
Oh, now he's gotta cook?
But that wasn't the first thing you said.
So the one who'll be provider,
so let the man go to work.
I just don't understand why a woman
can't pursue a career and be a housewife.
Okay, that's a good
question, I like that,
but the problem with that is that
man's natural state is to be a provider.
Woman's natural state is a nurturer.
So as a woman, if you're
taking the provider
away from me,
why the hell we both
be needing to provide?
We don't both need to provide.
Somebody needs to provide
and somebody needs to
(door beeping)
Take care of the babies.
I don't understand why
I have to stay at home
(door clicking)
and be a housewife?
I, I can provide too.
Oh my God, you are giving me a headache.
You tell me you wanna be a wife,
you want all these things,
and then when I tell you
what it takes to be a wife,
you don't wanna do, you
wanna be a career woman.
You wanna be the man,
that's what you want.
You don't wanna let the man be a man.
So you want top 10% and
you wanna be top 10%.
That's not how this goes.
Usually, the man makes
more than the woman.
He's the provider, that's how that goes.
Who says we have to live by
society's standards and rules?
Why can't men and women be equal?
Equal? You, you do not
wanna be equal to a man.
Trust me when I tell you
it is hard out here.
You wanna be a woman,
and you should value being a woman.
Just because I'm a
woman, I can't be equal?
You do not wanna be equal.
That is the last thing
you wanna be is equal.
You don't wanna be equal.
You don't wanna kill the robbers.
You don't wanna get the insects,
get the bugs, mow the lawn.
Come on, do you really wanna do that?
Taking out trash, building shit?
Do you really want a
tool set for Christmas?
Whatever it is, you don't
want to be equal, trust me.
All right, since you
have all the answers,
tell me what I need to do.
Now that, you have to
get a consultation for that
and take the course.
Just go to my Instagram
and just hit the link in the bio.
It's gonna take you straight there.
Trust me, you need this course.
It's gonna change your
life. All right, Monica.
All right, talk to you later.

Baby, don't play dumb
You know what you came here for
Yeah, look, I'm at a balloon pop show,
and I don't have a good experience.
All right, first of all,
the hell would you go on
some stupid-ass game show
like that anyway?
I thought it was my last
shot at finding true love.
That was your last shot
at finding true love?
Tried everything, dating apps,
going to church and the dance socials.
Yeah, we got a lot of work to do, bro,
'cause, uh, that's a very shallow,
uh, you know, very childish show
that you're on, brother.
I would not waste my time
with you like that, right?
Yeah, that, that's
easy for you to say, uh.
Look, man, you got everything
going for yourself.
You got looks, you got
the swagger, everything.
I, I'm in the mud, man.
Hold on real quick.
(door clicking)
(ominous music)
What the fuck?
Hold, hold on.
What?
Yeah, yeah, so what you was saying?
(door thudding)
Uh, remember the balloon pop?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right,
that's right, the balloon pop.
All right, listen, brother,
you want a show with a bunch of women,
who don't even know what
they really look like.
They do know what they look
like, but they don't like it.
You understand what I'm saying?
They're covering their
hair up with fake hair.
You got fake eyelashes, you
got makeup, you got a BBL.
This shit is ridiculous.
The person who should
be embarrassed is them,
not you, brother, all right?
Yeah, right, I was probably
just being too hard on myself, mm?
- Definitely.
- Anything at all?
- Diego Lopez?
- Uh, man, uh, man, look,
I, I, I gotta go, I have an appointment.
What? Go?
I'm trying to give you
advice, you don't want it?
Yeah, give it to me
quick, but I, I, I gotta go.
Real quick?
Well, what the fuck? I'm not a microwave.
This is an oven.
This should take time, brother.
You gotta pay for this too.
Like, what's up with you?
You doing this or not?
Look, I, I understand, but,
but I, I have to go, I'm running...
All man, good luck.
All right, thank you.
(dial tone beeping)
Wasting my motherfucking time there.
Gourmet truffles? (Chuckles)
I got a lot of fans, I got a lot of fans.
Work hard, let's go.
(smooth music)
(phone ringing)
(phone vibrating)
(phone ringing)
(Virgil chuckling)
(phone tinkling)
Hey, Virgil, it's Emma.
Glad to talk to you again.
Okay, I have another problem.
Okay, okay, what's the problem?
Well, I took your advice
that you told me last time,
and I applied it to the situation
with a guy that I'm dealing with,
and he called me selfish.
Apparently, I'm selfish
because I don't wanna be a housewife.
I mean, I wanna make money too.
I don't wanna be in a house
raising kids, changing diapers.
And I just wanna know,
how does that make me selfish?
Okay, if you wanna be selfless,
this is how you be
selfless to a man, right?
You gotta sacrifice that career.
You gotta sacrifice that.
That got, that's gotta go out the window.
You gotta trust me.
You have trust
in the man that you're with
or don't be with him.
You can't run shit.
But I do trust him.
You don't trust him.
You have to, to, i-if you
wanna trust him, okay,
trusting him means I trust
that he's gonna be the
provider, the protector.
I'm gonna nurture, that's trust.
See, what you're doing is you're saying,
"No, I don't trust him,
so I gotta go provide.
I gotta go do this, I gotta go do that."
And, and, and, and, and do
whatever he, his job is.
See, you're missing the
point here, all right?
A woman should be
in the house nurturing.
Yeah, Virgil, I told you
I do not like kids.
I don't want the, like,
soccer van and the carpooling.
You're gonna be, how old are you again?
I'm 35.
So you don't understand
how you're an old woman.
That's what you don't understand.
What?
Old woman? I'm 35.
You have, let me
explain something to you.
Your value is in your womb.
I tried to explain this to you last time.
Wait, what? My value is in my womb?
What kind of 1960...
In the baby-making world,
you a dinosaur.
Excuse me, are you kidding? A dinosaur?
I'm trying, I'm trying to
make you understand something.
[Emma] Okay, all right,
that's very insulting, Virgil.
You're calling me old,
you're calling me a dinosaur.
Yes, in the baby-making
world, you're a dinosaur, okay?
Man is attracted to
nurture, having babies,
and you, you, you, your clock is ticking.
You don't have time to
be sitting around here
being nitpicking and having a career.
What, you gonna, I'm telling you,
you're gonna be with 12 cats,
and that's gonna be it for
you if you don't stop this.
You are going down a road of loneliness.
I actually love cats, so,
so that's not really a problem for me.
Okay, that's good,
I'm glad you said that
because I don't need your money.
Whatever you got going on,
if it comes with a
headache, you could keep it.
You know what?
I really don't need this negativity
because you just really frustrated me,
and I don't like it.
So you keep your bullshit advice
and shove it up your ass.
Fuck you!
(laid-back jazzy music)
All right, here we go.
(hands rustling)
I'll just let y'all get in the room,
see what's going on today.
Having a good day today.
Definitely, mm-hmm.
Hey, yo, Legacy, what up, man?
Yo, what's up, man? How you, yo.
You gotta take one of my courses, man.
Gotta level you up, B.
Let's see, how many are there?
All right, all right, all right.
Okay, all right, um,
had a real good day today.
(stranger knocking)
What the hell? Soon as I start.
Oh, that's oh. I'm right back, y'all.
(door clicking)
[Courier] Delivery for Virgil?
[Virgil] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's me, man, that's me, yeah.
[Courier] Yeah, babe, they
sent me to the North Tower.
[Virgil] Oh, oh, oh yeah, that's the one
around the corner.
- Crazy, right?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right.
- Is this Room 529? Wait!
Aren't you the guy from YouTube?
[Virgil] Thank you, you
know, this is, this is,
yeah, this is 529.
[Courier] Oh, you are
him, I knew it was you.
You are the guy from YouTube.
- All right, thank you.
- Um, may I just please
get your autograph?
(door thudding)
Oh, sorry.
(footsteps plodding)
Sorry about that, y'all.
Had to grab, get some grub, right?
It's just to sustain life.
You gotta live, right?
Um, all right, so where was I?
Oh, today was a good day, crazy day.
Um, I had a lot of good clients,
a lot of good conversations, um.
But one thing that happened that was crazy
was I got a real, real special gift today.
And shout-out to this anonymous fan who,
I have no idea who it is,
but they sent me a real special gift,
and to all my fans out there,
you really, really gotta step this shit up
'cause whoever this is,
they know a lot of information.
I could say that. So, y'all ready?
Drum roll, please.
(drum pounds)
(Virgil laughing)
All right, boom! Look at this.
Yo, look at this.
(audience applauding)
COOGI, look at this COOGI right here.
Look at the detail in here.
It's the real thing, it's
authentic, I checked it all out.
Unbelievable joint, man. I love it.
So whoever bought this,
they knew a lot about me.
All right, they knew where I'm from,
my favorite rapper, you know, all that.
So um, big shout-out to
the anonymous gift sender,
and you can hit me in DM, you know?
Don't gotta be a secret, come on.
(Virgil laughing)
Crazy. All right, so
here's what we gonna do.
Um, I got a message for everybody.
Well, before we do that, (exhales heavily)
I'll take two questions.
All right, I'll do three just,
just 'cause I'm, yeah, yeah, I got time.
All right, let's see who got a question?
What y'all wanna ask? Big Verge.
Mm.
Nah.
Oh, okay, I like that one.
All right, all right,
all right, so here we go.
What's my favorite food? (Chuckles)
I haven't really told
you all my favorite food,
so I'm not mad at y'all for not knowing.
But if I go anywhere,
if you know me, you know one thing,
I'm getting the steak, man!
I'm getting the steak,
medium well, slight pink.
That's it, don't, don't trip.
Slight pink, you know what I mean?
I want some truffle butter on it,
some mashed potatoes is cool.
Some broccoli with some garlic butter.
Ooh, maybe some asparagus,
asparagus is good too.
Um, so that's, that's, that's
my favorite dish right there.
Oh, let me see what else we got here?
Mm.
Um, oh, okay, my biggest fear?
My biggest fear, hmm,
that's a good question.
Mm, my biggest fear.
Damn, might have to be just God.
I don't really fear nothing, you know?
Come on, Wolfie, I'm from
Brooklyn, so I don't really fear,
I don't breathe this like that, man.
All right, let's go. What's new there?
How big is, whoa! Come, eh!
Man, let's get her outta
here 'cause she's a wildling.
All right, all right, um.
(fingers clicking)
Need one more question,
I need to go right now.
Let me see.
Um.
Okay, okay, all right.
All right, boom, cool.
I mean, all right, I'll answer that one.
That's a good one. It's light, it's cool.
It said, "Who are my favorite rapper?"
Um,
I don't really listen to rap too much,
but when I do, I'm
listening to Jay-Z, man.
Come on, you gotta listen to Hov.
It's the God.
It's the dynasty, baby. (Laughs)
That's the dynasty. All
right, question time's over.
Somebody said, "Can, yo, Virgil,
can you drop a jewel of the day?"
Can I drop a jewel of
the day? I like that.
All right, jewel of the day.
Mm, all right.
Had an interesting
conversation earlier today
about what do you want outta life
and are you happy
with what you have?
(alarm ringing)
Ooh.
All right, so before I get
outta here, that's my alarm.
I got a client, got a big
client I gotta talk to,
but want more.
If you're unhappy in life,
just know you have everything you want.
Just want more, all right?
And tomorrow, that's gonna be the build.
I'm gonna let y'all know,
explain exactly what I mean.
But right now, gotta go, all right?
All right, y'all.

(Virgil scoffing)
Hello?
Virgil, I didn't like the way
you was talking to that girl.
Ma,
like, 6:00 in the morning,
what are you talking about?
Boy, don't talk to me like that.
You know the girl that
you was telling me about?
The heavyset one.
Ma, I told her she was fat.
I just told her the truth.
That wasn't nice.
Listen, 41 years old,
I'm bald and I'm overweight,
I'm not out here saying I'm a 10, okay?
You gotta be realistic out here.
Yeah, but you could have
spoken to her a little bit nicer.
Come on, I raised you better than that.
All right, Ma, I apologize, I'm sorry.
So what you up to?
What you doing? What you been up to?
I'm doing stuff, you know, work.
Are you still traveling?
Mm-hmm.
So what country are you in this time?
(Virgil chuckling)
Um, I'm in United States
of America. I'm in Florida.
You in Florida?
So are you on the phone talking
to your groupie on your live?
Mother, if that's all
you had to call for,
can I call you back when I'm free?
Yeah, but don't be a stranger, okay?
All right.
[Gladys] Okay.
- Love you.
- Love you too, baby.
Talk to you later.
(water sloshing)
Ah, ooh.
Ah.
(Virgil sighing)
(Virgil sniffing)
Hey, man, shit is real rough
right now in my life.
And the bills are stacking up.
I figured, I figured I'd reach out to you
to see if you could maybe help me.
You know, like they said,
two heads is better than one.
So I figured maybe we could
put our heads together and-
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Pause, first of all.
Second of all, listen, look,
gotta understand something now, man.
Well, you got bills, everybody got bills.
Everybody got the same 24 in a day.
It's what you doing with your 24.
Yeah, man, I used to have a
real bad problem with alcohol.
I'll get a caramel latte.
[Richard] I spent all my money
on alcohol and scratch-off.
Yeah, drizzle the whipped
cream. Sorry about that.
Hold on real quick. Yeah, thank you.
I'm sorry, what'd you said?
I was pretty much drunk
for three months straight.
Yeah, it's really hard out here.
See, that sounds like excuses.
And as men, we can't, we can't
live with excuses, all right?
So what you gotta do is you gotta man up.
As hard as it is to say, you gotta man up!
What's your name again?
- My name is Richard Smith.
Richard Smith.
Okay, Richard Smith,
you'll have to learn the hardest lesson
in life I ever had to learn, okay?
And that's everything
in life that you want,
you have it right now.
Everything you want, you have it.
Like what? I don't have
shit in my life, man!
Exactly, that's the point.
How is that a good thing?
I got no money! I got no woman!
I got no kids!
And I can barely afford to live in this
fucking crappy apartment I have.
I feel like I'm on the fucking edge
of going back to drinking.
All right, so let me bring
it down to you like this.
Everything that you have in your life
is 'cause you wanted it.
Now, if it doesn't make you happy,
you have to want more.
- I do want more.
- No, you don't.
I do want more! I want
more for myself, yes!
If you wanted it, you would have it,
and you would attract it.
- How is this life? Really?
See, what you gotta
understand is success
is not something that is pursued,
it's something that is attracted.
You have to attract success
by being the best version of you.
And right now, you're not
the best version of you.
So you can't expect to attract success.
And since you're, since
you're such an expert
in all this, I wanted to see,
I wanted to see how I can
attract success like you did.
(Virgil chuckling)
Okay, Richard, listen.
First thing you gotta do is
you gotta work on yourself.
Self-improvement is the most
important thing to a human
and the most valuable thing.
It's more valuable than
money, self-improvement.
'Cause the more you improve on yourself,
the more valuable you become, Richard!
Do you understand? The
more valuable you become.
Now, you are an asset.
You have skills, you have talent,
you have ambition to
go along with it, okay?
Right now, all I hear is excuses.
I don't mean to be hard on you,
but I'm trying to tell you how it is.
That's why you called me.
- I mean, yeah,
I get everything you're saying and all,
and it, it sounds really good.
I just, I just don't know if I can do it.
But, but how, how am I
gonna be able to apply this?
Hmm, all right, well.
Like y-you, you're really good at this.
Listen to you! I could
just hear your aura.
And, and I'm not that good.
I don't think I could do this.
How am I gonna be able to do this?
I don't even believe in myself sometimes.
Ever since I was a kid, I
had low self-confidence.
It got fucking worse as I grew up, man!
And having no girlfriend,
no kids, no fucking home.
Seeing everybody I work
with have more than me,
you know how fucking disgusting that is?
I feel like a piece of shit!
I am seriously, sometimes...
This isn't your problem.
You're not my therapist.
I can't even afford a therapist.
Richard, ah, I'm gonna look you up.
Let me see what package you got
so I can see how far this
conversation could go.
Oh man, all right.
All right, you, you gotta upgrade
to the Platinum package for this,
but I'm gonna give it to you
just 'cause I like your style.
So the first thing you gotta
do is working on discipline.
You said you got alcohol problems.
That means you have a discipline problem,
not an alcohol problem, okay?
You have a problem with
discipline, Richard.
Yes, you're right.
I have a problem with discipline.
I've always had a problem
with discipline in my life.
I always did.
- Exactly, so ah, ah!
So let's work, let's stop right now,
and let's work on discipline,
and let's exercise discipline
through alcoholism, right?
Every day you're sober,
that's one more day you're disciplined.
That's one more day you're
able to attract success.
Now, if you don't take
this and listen to this,
you don't wanna be successful, Richard.
And there's nothing I
can do or you can do.
So please do us both a favor
and let's work on discipline!
I can start tomorrow.
I am deserving.
I am deserving.
That's my man, Richard!
That's what I wanna hear, man.
You're on the right
track, Richard, all right?
But look, like I said, upgrade
to that Platinum package,
and you never know, might
get a one-on-one sit-down.
Are you serious?
You're not, I can't afford that.
Yeah, I can introduce
you to some of my peoples,
some of my connects.
That would be so cool!
We'll start diving into
what is your interest in life,
what are your talents, what
is your God-given gift, okay?
That's, that's what we're gonna do.
So upgrade to that Platinum package, okay?
So you can get the sit-down,
you can get the fundraiser, okay?
'Cause I believe in you, Richard,
even if you don't believe in yourself.
Oh my God, that would make my year,
probably my life, man!
You literally are an angel on this earth.
Okay, all right, so
you hear what I'm saying?
Are you feeling me or
what's going on? What?
Yeah, I hear everything you're saying.
All right, I'm gonna
start applying it all.
I'm gonna take everything
you said into account.
I'm going to hold myself accountable
every single day, one day at a time.
Discipline, yes, one day at a time.
So one day that I don't drink,
that's one day consistent.
I understand that totally.
Two days, and I will go back to zero,
but I promise you that
I will make you proud.
I will make myself proud.
And I'm gonna call you back,
and I'm gonna tell you
how successful I am,
and how much this changed my life!
All right, Richard, listen, please do.
I'm waiting for your call.
Don't disappoint me, Richard, all right?
I really appreciate
this. Have a great day.
[Virgil] All right, Rich.
Oh my God, Richard, you're
not a fucking dickhead anymore.
They're not gonna make fun of you anymore!
I'm gonna fucking do this.
I'm finally gonna wear you out.
Oh my God, I gotta...
(footsteps stomping)
(phone ringing)
(laughs) It's my guy.
Nigel, what's going on, brother?
Yo, my man, Virgil.
What's going on, brother?
Sound like you working out,
man. Trying to stay in shape?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but you know,
I'm never too busy for my
clients, what's going on?
Yeah, I had to holler at you, man.
Uh, got a little bit of adversity.
You know, I'm dating
this chick, fine piece,
but she got three baby daddies,
and she got a kid by each of them.
And this shit is wearing on me, bro.
I mean, she's a bad
motherfucker and all that.
Six-figure job, treats me like a king.
All that, poom poom was bananas.
But I just can't take
this baby daddy shit, man.
I feel like I'm about
to bust off on somebody.
Nigel, I'm, I'm a
little disappointed, man.
I'm a little disappointed.
I, I can't believe you fell
for the step daddy thrash on me.
What's going on with you, man?
I'm trying to get you
to be a high-value guy,
and, and you're running around here
with dealing with women
with three baby fathers.
That are keeping it from you and lying is,
and lying to you about it.
Nigel, it's not what we worked on.
It's not what we practiced, okay?
I've been a victim to,
you know, chasing your dick
and, and then hopefully for you,
it doesn't end in a venereal disease
or an STD, Nigel, okay?
You gotta grow up!
Three baby fathers, it means there's a lot
of fucking raw that she's doing, okay?
She's in that habit,
brother. Come on, man.
I talked about this already.
Before I do something stupid, man,
I had to holler at you and um,
I knew you'd talk me off a ledge.
You know what, she failed all the tests.
She got kids, right?
What'd she do for a living?
Does it, she has a career, doesn't she?
I bet she has a career. (Sighs) Nigel.
I knew you was gonna spit
the truth and keep it real.
I, I know you disappointed, bro.
But when I tell you this
pussy is magically delicious,
like Lucky Charles, man, I'm, (scoffs)
She reeled me in.
I'm a, I'm, I'm a real fish right now.
Listen, you know what you can do?
This is what you can do.
So you gonna fuck that
pussy and call me later.
I'll holler at you.
(phone tinkling)
Fucking idiot.
(introspective music)
(Virgil breathing heavily)
(door clicking)
Nigel, disappointed.
(footsteps plodding)
(introspective music continues)
(footsteps plodding continues)
(sanitizer dispenser whizzing)
(hands rustling)
(introspective music continues)
(Virgil exhaling heavily)
(phone vibrating)
Ooh, Renee!
Hello?
Hey, Virgil.
What's up, girl?
Nothing much, um.
I was thinking I could
come see you and you know,
I got this sexy outfit
that I wanna put on.
Oh, really? Hopefully, it ain't much.
No, it ain't much.
I ain't gonna have nothing on, nothing.
You like that, Daddy?
I like to hear that.
Nice, so what you trying to do?
So I'm trying to come over around like
9:00 or 10:00,
and you know, we can eat in.
And then after that, I
could be your dessert.
(Virgil laughing)
I'd love that!
So um, all right, nine o'clock.
I'll pick you up or you coming through?
Nah, I'm gonna come through.
But could you bring some wine?
Oh yeah, definitely, whatever you need.
What you want? That's it, just wine?
And some strawberries and whipped cream.
I wanna try something real fun with that.
Oh, I like the sound of that.
All right, I'm free.
All right, love.
(door clicking)
Oh yeah, look, when you get here,
I'm gonna, uh, just come straight up.
I'll let the people in the Front Desk know
and send you up, all right?
Okay, see you then.
All right.
Yeah, it's about to be
on tonight. (Chuckles)
Fuck I'm gonna wear?
So I think I'm, I'm gonna wear...
Mm, let me see.
Ah!
(sighs) Let's see what I
got in the Virgil Closet.
(lighthearted music)
Baby, give me a sign
Don't leave me blind
Baby, just want your heart
I don't need the nonsense
'Cause you, girl, you got me
You got me on that stuff
I just want your mind
Give me a conscience
Give me some time
I promise I'm not him
You are, you are, you are
One in a million
(dispenser clicking)
Girl, you came to me broken
And I can't seem to find the pieces
To your heart
To your heart, nah, nah, ah, ah
So sit and try to fix you
And put together back
what someone tore apart
They tore apart
Hit my line when I hit you up
Come on, fine, I'm gonna pick you up
I ain't really gotta go say too much
Did you know how we are
(door thudding)
Baby, girl, you're a star
Shit.
(sewing machine rattling)
(sewing machine clicking)
Really, Erica?
So this is what you
call being on your way?
What you doing, Erica?
[Erica] I said I was on my way, right?
That was over an hour ago, Erica.
Okay, I was on my way!
You know I have to finish
this. The show is tomorrow!
I'm already stressed out.
How did you get here?
I took an Uber.
A Uber, Aaron?
- Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
- A fucking Uber?
Wasn't it you the one that told us that,
"Oh, we, we gotta watch our, our budget
because, uh, we gotta buy a house.
We're getting older, we need to plan.
We need a backyard, we need land?"
What's all of that for?
What's all of that for, Erica?
You were supposed to be
where I was over an hour ago.
I said I was on my way, okay?
You just wasted money on an Uber
when I literally was on my way!
I'm fully dressed, babe.
I was literally about to
finish this, hop in the car,
and speed to come get you!
You're a liar.
A liar?
- Yeah.
- Who are you calling a liar?
Who are you calling a liar?
I know you're not talking to me! A liar?
You got some nerve talking about a liar.
I do not lie!
To tell somebody that
you're gonna do something
and you don't do it is a lie, sweetheart.
Okay, guess I'm a liar then.
You know what? It's
cool, don't even trip.
I'm gonna go take a walk.
Take a walk?
You just got here!
Are you hungry?
Yeah, make me something.
"Make me something. Make me something."
I'm a liar.
Am I a liar?
(Erica exhaling heavily)
(keypad clicking)
(relaxing music)
(phone ringing)
Hi, is this Virgil?
- Yes, who is this?
- This is Erica.
Erica, how you doing?
I'm doing good.
Okay, so what's going
on? What you got for me?
First, I'm sorry, I didn't
mean to cut you off,
but what, I gotta look you up.
Your name is Erica what?
- Erica Wade, it's W-A-D-E.
Let me look you up.
Are you Platinum, Gold?
Do you know your package?
I think I'm a Gold package.
All right, all right.
Okay, all right.
Yeah, so I was hoping
you could help me out.
I'm always having this really bad argument
with my boyfriend all the time,
and he never seems to compromise on this.
He tells me that I'm lying all the time.
I don't really lie.
I might tell, like, a little
white lie here and there,
but he's always telling me that I'm lying
about what time I'm gonna be there,
and if I'm late, and if I'm lying
about being on my way,
or, or if I was on my way
I would already be there.
I don't, I don't know,
something like that.
Okay, um, sorry,
but you gotta stop at some point, right?
Um, okay, so you and your boyfriend
is talking about you lying
or lying in the relationship?
No, he says that I'm a liar.
- Just in general?
- Yes.
Well, that people lie all the time.
And something about me
picking him up from work,
and I said I was on my way,
and I technically was on my way,
but I kinda took a long time
to get off the sewing machine.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Let's stop right there.
You said you was gonna be
somewhere at a certain time,
and you wasn't there, is that correct?
Yes, but that's because
I had a few things to do.
Like, okay, so I have a
fashion show tomorrow.
He knows about it, okay?
And he asked me to pick him up from work.
His work is about, I don't
know, maybe 10 minutes away.
I was literally finishing my last stitch,
and he comes busting in the door
with an attitude, what, yelling at me.
Well, he wasn't yelling,
but he technically,
he, he had a yelling tone in his face
about me not being there.
(Virgil munching)
And he took a Uber after
he told me so many times,
"We have to cut back on our spending,
and I can't be taking Ubers,
so you have to pick me up from work."
Okay, all right, so let
me ask you this question.
(Virgil gulping)
What do you do for a living?
I am a wardrobe designer.
So I make the clothes, and then
I have to bring 'em on set,
and dress the people, you know?
So I'm pretty busy.
Um, just, just to ask,
are you Black, white, Latin, Latina?
Like, what's the deal?
Black.
Okay, um, all right, so
you're a designer, okay?
Let's say Rihanna wants you to style her
and be there by seven o'clock,
what time do you get there?
Oh, I'm gonna be there at seven o'clock.
See, you should have said 6:30
because you wanna be early, right?
On time is late.
That's what my pops used to tell me.
And that's how I used to get
to everywhere on time, right?
So if you on time, that
means you get there at 7:00.
That means you late.
Early, 7:45, you know?
6:45, 6:30, that's when
you wanna get somewhere
when you on time, right?
So you said you was gonna be some,
and if it was Rihanna, me
and you both know you
would've been there on time.
Yeah, but that's
different. That's Rihanna.
[Virgil] That means you value Rihanna
more than you value your boyfriend,
and you haven't even met her!
No, I'm not saying that.
I'm just saying it's-
No, no, no.
That's what you're saying.
Oh, not in those words exactly.
All right, what I'm saying is that
if I have to be on time,
I don't wanna miss that opportunity.
I mean, if Rihanna calls me,
that's different than me picking
up my boyfriend from work.
He works 10 minutes away.
He could have waited in the parking lot.
It's not really a big deal
'cause I know he wasn't rushing anywhere.
He was coming home to do nothing!
Okay, (throat clears)
So when y'all have to go somewhere
and be there on time, you're there, right?
So it sounds like to me, you're
valuing where you have to go
more than your boyfriend.
You're valuing Rihanna
more than your boyfriend.
Places you have to be with
your boyfriend on time
more than you value him.
Like, did you ever think,
what did he have to do
to be available at that time for you?
I feel like if he really
had somewhere to go,
he would've said, "Babe, be here
at exactly blah, blah, blah."
You know how some people know someone
is gonna be late all the time,
and then they tell that
person an hour early?
If he had somewhere to really be,
he would probably do that, right?
Um, listen, I looked at your package,
and you're Silver package.
So I, I, if you wanna upgrade,
we can, we can do the upgrade,
and we can get more in depth,
but right now, I'm telling you,
you're valuing everything
else more than your boyfriend.
If you wanna keep him, start to value him,
appreciate him, thank him.
Be on time!
[Erica] Okay, so I'm gonna
upgrade to the next package.
[Virgil] You're about
to upgrade right now?
Yep, just did. Did you see it?
Nope, oh, just came
through. Okay, all right.
So this is the first thing we wanna do.
We wanna grow, right?
So if you wanna grow as a human,
that means you have to admit your flaws
and your faults so you can get over them.
You just said you'll go to Rihanna
and you'll be there at seven o'clock.
That's a flaw, that's a problem
because if someone tells you to be there
and they have a great opportunity for you,
you should be there early.
Well, let me ask you this, if
I gave you a million dollars,
would you be happy?
Absolutely!
Okay, now, what if I
gave you $10 million?
Would you be happy?
Hell yeah! Who wouldn't
be happy with $10 million?
And you would accept that money gladly?
Yes, gladly!
Let me ask you this question.
Now, if I told you after I give
you this $10 million, right,
after that day's over, you die,
do you still get the $10 million?
Do you still want it?
No, why would I? No.
You would not what?
No, I wouldn't take
the money if I had to...
Like, what kinda question is that?
Okay, there we go, right?
Because your life
is more valuable than $10 million.
Waking up that next day was more valuable
than that $10 million.
So what you just said, that
means money is no object.
It's about value.
That's what this life is
about, it's about value.
And $10 million is not worth as much
as waking up the next day.
Okay?
Okay.
So just value your man, listen to him,
and, and trust me, y'all,
y'all gonna be good.
Okay, so can I ask
you one more question?
How do I stop him from calling me a liar?
Stop lying, okay?
Just stop lying.
It doesn't matter if it's a big lie,
it doesn't matter if it's
a small lie, stop lying.
Lying, okay, humans work on habits,
humans work on repetition.
If you have the habit of lying,
of making very small lies
(scissors snipping)
That you feel in your mind
that your opinion don't
really matter like that,
it's a bad habit.
It's only gonna leak over
to other aspects of life.
All right, so fuck all lying shit
because we ain't never
gonna agree on that.
I need you to teach me
how to be successful.
Okay, if you wanna be successful,
if you wanna be diligent in life,
you have to have good habits,
and lying is not a good habit.
Lying about where you're at,
how long you're gonna be there,
what time you're gonna get
there, those are all lies!
Look, I already told you about the lies.
I don't wanna talk about
that no more, all right?
We're never gonna agree.
And I don't take too kindly to
two people calling me a liar.
All right, so now,
we're at the stage in the
conversation where we're gonna,
it's the make or break stage.
Are you gonna grow or are you gonna just
stay the same, right?
Do you lie?
All right, this is not
what I spent my money for,
but if you want to know if I lie, no,
I don't feel like I lie, all right?
It's just the things that
happen between me and my boo
is just many miscommunications.
It's not that big of a deal.
Terrible, this is a problem we gotta fix
'cause we just said that you lied.
Even if it's a small lie,
don't specify the lie.
"Oh, it's just a small lie.
Oh, I said I was gonna be
there and traffic came."
We already said that if
it was a million dollars
that you would've got there on time.
- Yeah.
- So now, I'm gonna ask you
one more time, do you lie?
Yeah, I guess I'm a fucking liar!
I just never thought
about it like that! (Sobs)
See, there you go. It's not that hard.
That's the first step to stopping it.
Just admit it. Yo, listen, look!
I lie, I lie. I said, "Yo, call you back."
I said, "I'm coming
through," I'm lying, right?
I know that sometimes,
but that is why I can get better
'cause I do know I'm lying, and I fix it.
If there's a leak coming in the ceiling,
and it's leaking, and it's
leaking, and it's leaking,
and you don't acknowledge the leak
or say, "Oh, this is a leak,"
your house is gonna get
flooded, it's gonna be ruined.
So it's like your
relationship is the house,
and you've got a leak, all right?
Wow, Virgil, this is really good.
Thank you so much.
This is gonna help me out in
my whole life and everything.
I really appreciate you for this.
Yep, yep, and um, that is
you at the Platinum stage.
There's one more thing we can do,
and I think we can get an actual sit-down.
You know what I mean, so
if there was something
you wanted to do, let me know.
We get to the next level,
and we go from there.
You know what? I'm gonna
go Platinum right now.
Matter of fact, my boyfriend
needs to meet you too.
I'm gonna go Platinum for both of us.
(keyboard clicking)
Okay.
- All right, thank you.
Thank you.
(Erica sighing)
(keys clinking)
(relaxing music)
(door creaking)
(door thudding)
Babe.
Hi.
- What's up?
What's up?
- How was your walk?
It's good.
You feel better?
I do.
Okay, um, I'm sorry.
Well, I've been thinking,
and you were right.
- About what?
- Me being a liar.
- Okay.
- Okay, maybe I,
I, okay, I do lie, and I'm sorry.
And to make it up to you, I have decided
to give you a nice massage tonight.
- Okay.
- You know?
Chill on the couch, cuddle up.
How's that sound?
- Sounds good to me.
Okay, so give me five more
minutes to finish up work and-
Five minutes?
Um, okay, 25 minutes?
(relaxing music)
That's cool.
- Okay.
- So I got enough time
to go take a shower?
- Mm-hmm.
- All right, cool.
(Erica smooching)
Be right back. Good luck.
(relaxing music continues)
Yo, babe!
- Yeah.
You really gonna give me a massage?
[Erica] Yep.
[Aaron] Woo-hoo!
(Erica chuckling)
(pensive music)
[Friend] What the fuck?
(Virgil laughing)
What, you must have some sort
of, like, crazy sixth sense
or something.
(shutter clicking)
- (laughs) Oh, I have.
- Dude, I'm FaceTiming you
right now because you have to see this.
Okay. (Laughs)
Oh, what?
[Friend] It's literally typing!
I'm literally fucking typing right now.
Wow, that's crazy.
[Friend] Come on, bro.
- That's crazy.
- You should get in there.
I don't know how did you do that?
Yo, actually, I'm like, yo,
let me call Josh, remind him.
[Friend] I, I like I
was scrolling through.
I leave, like, messages unread
so that, like, on Monday,
I know to, like, go back and you know?
Right.
[Friend] And I completely
forgot to send it
when I got back to my
house on Friday.
- Okay.
- When I spoke to you.
- And I called.
And I'll call about this too.
I'm like, "Yo, make sure you
send that off, okay?" (laughs)
- Amazing.
- Amazing.
That's how you know this thing
is gonna be a great thing.
All right, so, um, I love you, kiddo.
I'm gonna call, I'm
gonna talk to you soon.
- All right, bro.
- All right.
- Later.
- Out.
(foreboding music)
I got this crazy feeling like, you know,
I feel like somebody watching me.
Yeah, nah, maybe I'm just bugging.
Maybe I'm just bugging.
(foreboding music continues)
(door clicking)
Yeah, another gift from a fan, huh?
(door clicking)
Oh! Shit, what the fuck?
Ew, that's disgusting. Yo, what the fuck?
What's wrong with these people, man?
Oh, shit. Yo, hell no!
What the fuck? Yo.
(dial pad beeping)
(phone ringing)
This is bugging!
- Hello, Front Desk.
- Yeah, hello, Front Desk?
Hey, yo, look, my man, I got roaches,
and I got shit at the front door.
[Front Desk] Uh, roaches?
Yes, roaches and shit at my door!
[Front Desk] Oh, I, I'm sorry.
This is unacceptable Mr. Virgil.
I spent way too much money in this place
to be going through shit like this.
I need somebody come up
here and fix this now!
And I need another room!
[Front Desk] Okay, absolutely,
Mr. Virgil, immediately.
All right, yeah.
- Sorry for the inconvenience.
- Thank you.
You kidding me?
(Virgil breathing heavily)
(sensual music)
(phone ringing)
Hey, what's up, love?
Hey, what's going on, girl?
You almost ready for me, huh?
Yeah, I'm ready.
I'm just waiting on you.
Yeah, all right, um, look.
There's a little change
in the, um, in the room.
You know what I mean, I
want to change up the room
a little bit, so when you
get to the Front Desk,
I already said that, you know,
you could just give them your name,
and they gonna let you
straight up, all right?
All right, that's cool with me.
You know what? So I'm so ready for you.
I'm just wondering, you have any idea
what dress you want me to put on?
(laughs) Um, wear that dress
you had the see-through on?
I like that one. That
was, that was good, yeah.
All right, cool. I got you, baby.
All right, I'm gonna see
you soon then, all right?
But look, you know, I
gotta go do these lives.
You know, I gotta get
this paper, all right?
Yeah, I know you gotta do your stuff,
but just make sure you
ready for me, all right?
- All right.
- Just know when I see you,
I'm gonna do that trick
I've been telling you about.
Oh my God, are you serious? (Laughs)
I can't, ah, I can't wait
to see you, all right?
Oh, she is crazy.
Yo, what's going on, man?
Yeah, y'all live. Oh look,
they coming in the building.
Yeah, they coming in the building.
Throw them hundreds, yeah,
throw them hundreds up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. It's big Virgil, man.
We in the building, the number
one life coach consultant.
I am the guy.
You wanna get your life straight,
come and see me, all right?
I could change your whole life.
Y'all already know this, all right?
So today, we got a big, big word,
and it's only five letters,
it's called trust, all right?
This is a word that you
gotta get familiar with.
In this life, in this world,
you gotta learn how to trust people.
You know what I mean,
this is something that...
It's, it's, it's a lesson,
it's a hard lesson.
And you're gonna lose,
and, and, and there's
no guarantees in life,
but you gotta take a chance,
and you gotta learn how to trust people.
You know what I'm
saying? So wait, hold on.
Um, "Virgil, I thought, I
thought you didn't trust nobody."
(Virgil laughing)
No, so all right. So
that's personally, right?
So when I say that, I mean, you,
you can't trust nobody
with your vision, right?
'Cause it's yours.
No one's gonna see your vision like you.
No one's gonna execute it like you
'cause it's your vision, right?
But in business, you gotta trust.
You gotta learn how to get a team.
And that's people's biggest downfall
in this, in this, in this world.
Like, they don't understand that they try
to get everything for they self.
Like, these people wanna
have you around, milk you,
get whatever they can get from you,
and then make all the
money all by they self,
but that's not gonna work, you understand?
Like, I'd rather have a
piece of the water in it,
watermelon than the whole grape.
You, you, you understand what I'm saying?
So that's, that's a key thing.
And even in relationships, right?
Without trust, and it's
for all my relationship,
people that need help
in their relationship,
you gotta trust.
I was talking to a young lady,
I think it was last week,
and she had trust issues.
And I knew that if she didn't
get over those trust issues,
she was gonna ruin her relationship.
You know what I'm saying, so um, yeah,
trust, loyalty, and, and honesty.
Honesty is one of the biggest policies,
you know what I'm saying?
Like, you gotta, gotta be
honest with each other,
you know what I mean?
So, um, you know, I'm not gonna
be on here for a long time.
I'm just, oh, hell no, are you...
Wait, hold up.
All right, um, that was
my message for the night.
I, I gotta go.
You know, Virgil's busy.
I gotta get crazy, right?
All right, so I love y'all.
Remember trust, that's the key, all right?
(keypad clicking)
(Renee scoffing)
Got me fucked up.
(phone ringing)
(foreboding music)
Hey, what's going on?
What, what, what happened?
What happened?
What happened is I come,
and there's a bitch in your room.
What the fuck you got going on?
- What?
- What you mean what? Yeah.
Who is that? Your girlfriend?
Yeah, your girlfriend?
- I don't have a girlfriend.
What are you talking about?
What I'm talking about?
You about to piss me off, yo.
I get in there.
The girl's sitting on your
bed in some damn lingerie.
Whoa, are you serious?
Listen, I'm telling you,
I don't have a girlfriend.
You must have been to the wrong room.
I don't know, but please just come back.
So I'm stupid?
No, I didn't go to the wrong room.
You told me room 520.
520, shit.
Uh, damn, I don't know
what you're talking about.
Oh wow, now you don't
know what I'm talking about?
Hold on, wait, wait.
No, no, don't hang up.
Get off my phone.
(dial tone beeping)
Dang.
Yo, what the fuck?
(puzzling music)
(Virgil groaning)
Yeah.
(puzzling music continues)
I like this.
Nice little balcony, huh?
Yo, on.
They step me up.
All right.
Call from there. It's good luck here, man.
For real.
(dial pad beeping)
(phone ringing)
[Front Desk] Hello, Front Desk.
Yo, yo, hi. What's up, man?
Yo, the Deluxe?
- Yeah.
- Bro, wait,
this is on y'all, right?
Y'all taking care of me or what?
[Front Desk] Absolutely.
Oh, and your girlfriend stopped by.
My what?
[Front Desk] Your girlfriend?
Um, I don't have no girlfriend.
You never seen me with no girl before?
What you talking about?
[Front Desk] Okay, sorry
for the mistake, sir.
Yeah.
[Front Desk] Okay.
What she look like?
[Front Desk] I couldn't
really see, she had a hoodie on.
Hmm, nah, so I don't have a girlfriend.
[Front Desk] Okay,
sorry for the mix-up, sir.
Okay, thank you.
Check the cameras, do something
'cause this is crazy, all right?
[Front Desk] Okay, sure.
All right.
Man, that's the craziest
setup. Someone is sick.
(notification chiming)
What the fuck?
(flesh squelching)
(suspenseful music)
Fuck.
(suspenseful music continues)
What the fuck? I can't feel shit.
I can't feel my legs. I
can't feel my hands, nothing!
What was that?
[Attacker] That's 'cause I paralyzed you
from the neck down, bitch.
Yo, who are you? I don't know you!
[Attacker] (chuckles)
Oh, you know me very well.
(bell tolling)
Hello? Hey, yeah, sorry.
Sorry, I was, I was in church.
I couldn't, uh, I couldn't,
I saw your messages,
I got all your messages,
and I just wanted to say, I
can't wait for you to start,
you know, putting these things into motion
so you could start seeing
the immediate benefit.
Yeah, thank you so much, Virgil.
You understand, this is so amazing.
I appreciate all the great advice.
Like, I'm going into
that meeting tomorrow,
and I'm telling my boss what it is.
I don't care what he says.
I'm chasing my dream.
I'm gonna risk it all.
And it's all thanks to you, Virgil.
And I'm so happy, thank you so much.
You don't understand.
(Virgil laughing)
Yeah, listen, look,
I, I love the energy,
I love the spirit, okay?
But we really gotta consider, like,
starting to level up the packages though.
You know what I mean, like,
we really want to get in that
Platinum package area,
you know what I mean,
where we can really,
really push the envelope
and, and get things going, all right?
So, um, I'm happy you're happy,
and, and let's, let's do it.
Okay, all right, um, I
would love to, to level up
and get the next package.
Like, your advice really helps me so much.
Like, I'm looking forward
to the future, Virgil.
Thank you so much.
I, I love it. Thank you.
All right, hello? What was that?
(Toya chuckling)
Yeah, I think he just said he loved us.
Hello?
That was weird.
[Toya] Um, does the name Toya
ring a bell to you?
Oh my God.
[Toya] Yeah.
- Shit.
- Exactly.
I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry.
[Toya] You ain't sorry.
All the advice you gave me,
all the sweet advice you gave me,
not!
- Sorry.
Sorry, please, please.
[Toya] Virgil, you ruined my life.
You know, I wanna do it,
but you know, I got a lot of things to do.
I'm always so busy, I'm just really tired,
and I just can't seem to get to it.
Virgil, you know how
it is when you're busy,
you just got so much to do,
and then it's just like, it
becomes very overwhelming,
and then you can't just,
can't get anything and-
Oh, look, look.
I'm gonna stop you right here, okay?
It sounds like you're lazy, all right?
And you're not focused.
Until you learn how to
do those two things,
you're basically gonna be a failure.
Yeah, this, this is what we gonna do.
We gonna make this real cut,
dry, and clean, and simple.
But I'm not lazy, Virgil,
and I'm very focused.
I was more focused before I started
taking your advice, but...
And that's very hurtful for you to say
'cause I thought, you know,
we built a bond these last couple weeks,
and I thought that you
really understood me
and knew where I was coming from.
And then you also told me you love me.
And when you love someone, you,
you don't treat someone
you love like this.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, love you?
Yo, I never said I love you.
What are you talking about?
Are you crazy or something?
Yo, look, your coworkers might have been
onto something here, all right?
I didn't say I love you,
I said I love your energy.
No, okay, yes, you did
say you love my energy,
but you also said, I,
you said, "I love you,"
and like, wish, don't,
Virgil, act like we didn't,
we haven't, we shared, like, a bond,
like, a connection these
last few weeks, like-
All right, listen, all right?
If you wanna get the services,
if you wanna upgrade,
get the packages, then I'm,
I'm, I'm good with that, okay?
But you're taking this to a level
that I'm not trying to go to, all right?
Well, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I mean, I mean, I don't
know if I wanna upgrade
because when I upgraded that, I got,
I lost my job, you know?
So, you know, as two
people who love each other
'cause you love me, I-
Yo, love each other?
I just told you I don't,
I never said that.
I didn't say I love you, I don't love you.
This is what we gonna do, all right?
We're gonna make this easy.
I'm gonna disable your account.
I'm gonna block you on everything.
There is no me and you.
There never was and there
never will be, okay?
You understand that?
Oh, she's crazy.
I'm blocking.
I'm not crazy.
I'm not crazy. He said it.
He said...
(foreboding music)
[Echo] We have to get revenge.
He's told, he said
he loved me, remember?
He said he loved me.
[Mimic] Yeah, I remember.
I'm not crazy.
[Echo] We have to get revenge.
Right, so we gotta, we gotta,
we gotta pay him back.
We gotta get him back
for what he took from us.
You're such an ungrateful son of a bitch.
Eat this chocolate.
You ain't even say thank you for that.
Eat it! Eat the damn chocolate!
You know, I sacrificed
a lot, a lot for you!
All you do is fucking criticize
people and ridicule them.
All you think is you're
just so fucking perfect,
don't you?
- No, no.
[Toya] Something, you know what?
Something for all of us.
- Come on, come on, please.
[Toya] I got something for the ass.
Please.
[Toya] I told my brother
to call you for advice,
and the advice you gave
him is to kill himself?
My brother was a good man,
and he just needed help,
and I told him to call you.
And what advice did you give him?
You gave him some bullshit advice.
Only advice you gave
him was to kill himself!
[Virgil] I didn't tell
him to commit suicide.
That's just what he ended up doing.
[Toya] That was my brother.
(gunshot cracking)
(suspenseful music)
(suspenseful music continues)
(label thudding)
[Echo] Nobody wants you anymore.
Nobody loves you. Nobody
wants to be around you.
Loved you, Virgil.
It's a lot of...
Told me all the lies
just to buy your dumb packages.
[Mimic] He used you.
He know what he was doing.
I done lose my job.
Made me without friends.
Nobody wants to be around me.
Everybody thinks I'm crazy.
I loved you.
[Echo] You have to
get revenge for Daryl.
Shut up! You too, just...
Can y'all both please
be quiet? I can't think!
[Mimic] He doesn't love us.
I need to be, I need quiet, okay?
[Echo] He doesn't love us anymore.
He didn't just break my heart!
He broke all of our hearts!
[Mimic] He doesn't love us anymore?
Suffer, I'll make him feel pain.
Somebody said, "Can, yo, Virgil,
can you drop a jewel of the day?"
I like that, all right, jewel of the day.
It's about what do you want out of life.
Okay.
- Everything you got
coming to you, Virgil.
Just know you have everything you want.
Just want more, all right?
- Shut up!
'Cause you do nothing but lie!
[Virgil] I'm gonna let y'all
know, explain it exactly.
Awesome, he loves me. (Sniffs)
He loves us, amazing, hmm.
So I'm gonna make him feel all this pain.
[Mimic] He has to love us.
Shut up! He loves us, he loves us.
(Toya chuckling)
I'll make you feel the pain.
[Echo] He'll get what he deserves.
Yeah, Virgil broke my heart.
I'm gonna break yours.
If you don't wanna die, you listen to me.
- Okay.
- Okay?
All right, now this is what you gonna do.
You gonna tell all your little fans
that believe in you
that you've been lying
to them this whole time,
and that everything you've been saying
is not the truth, okay?
Now, come on, this is gonna ruin me!
Hmm, well, you gonna tell them
that your advice is bullshit!
All right?
Now,
(suspenseful music intensifies)
This is what's gonna happen.
Now, I'm gonna press Live,
and you're gonna say exactly
what I need you to say.
You understand me?
Scamming them of their money
with your stupid packages and shit.
I can't believe I fell in love with you.
I loved you, Virgil.
You, you broke my heart.
So you gonna say everything
I need you to say,
you understand me?
- Yeah, I understand.
No, mm-mm.
For some reason, I just don't believe you.
I need you to make me believe you, Virgil.
[Virgil] I can't even fucking move.
Hmm, good.
Good boy.
Now,
don't try
any bullshit while you're
on the live, all right?
All right, okay.
[Toya] I'm not playing with you.
- Okay.
- All right.
All right, I'm gonna go live
in three, two, don't you try nothing,
you understand me?
Yes!
[Toya] Hmm, you look good
in the sweater I got you.
Hopefully it doesn't end
up with some blood on it.
Okay, here we go.
(button chiming)
(suspenseful music)
Yo, what's up, y'all?
How y'all doing, man?
I just wanna let y'all know
all, (exhaling heavily)
Everything I've been doing, all the,
all the advice I've
been giving y'all, man,
it's been bullshit, all right?
I'm scamming y'all.
Everybody should just unsubscribe
and just please just...
It's all bullshit, man, all right?
I apologize, I'm sorry.
[Toya] Keep talking, motherfucker.
Tell 'em you're a fraud.
Tell 'em you're a fraud!
(gun clicking)
- Come on.
[Toya] Virgil, don't make me do it.
What the fuck?
(door slamming)
[Officer] Put the fuck your gun down!
Now!
- No, you put your
gun down first.
- Put the gun down now!
No!
- I'm not putting my gun down.
- Put the gun down!
- Virgil, I love you!
Virgil, I love you, no!
(gunshots popping)
(body thudding)
[Officer] Hey yo, you all right, man?
- Yeah, I'm good.
- You all right? You sure?
Yo, let's get a medic.
(police operator speaking indistinctly)
[Virgil] Y'all, I can't feel shit, man,
I can't feel nothing!
(siren wailing)
(lighthearted music)
Here we go again
Honey, I'm gonna them know

Just tell me that you love me no more
Love is good, love is blind
Love sometimes make you lose your mind
Got you running in
circles, crossing that line
No one is real 'cause

Love sometimes make you lose your mind
Got you running in
circles, crossing that line
You know when it's real
'cause the heart don't lie

Here we go again
Probably arguing
Calling on my phone telling me
That I'm with all my friends
Nope, I've been chilling

No, but when you come back
Back
Everything is good

While you cook the food
Ain't nothing gonna

Don't know why you wanna

'Cause that I don't break

In pieces, hey, well,

If I ever put you down
Then let me pick you up
I'll pick you up
Baby, niggas they all love you
But I'll put enough
Love is
Love is blind
Love sometimes make you lose your mind
Got you running in
circles, crossing that line
You know when it's real
'cause the heart don't lie
Love is good, love is blind
Love sometimes make you lose your mind
Got you running in
circles, crossing that line
You know when it's real
'cause the heart don't lie
