Sugar Valentine (2004)

[bunniefuu]

Kevin, I've told you I'm

not having sex with you

while I'm on my period.

Because that makes me feel like a sl*t.

That's why.

No. Kevin, no.

No, I don't care what your

ex-girlfriend used to do.

I'm not like that.

I don't care what your

ex-girlfriend used to do.

No, just no.

What?

No, I'm not letting you

stick your thing up my butt.

That's...

Ew, no.

No, I just...

That's it. That's final.

I'm not doing it.

I can't even believe

you're asking me this now.

I'm not having sex with you...

- Morning, Senator.

- Good morning.

He's waiting for you.

Have a seat.

We've got some great news.

Looks like Bird's not going to run.

Word has it he's going to

hold a press conference

later this afternoon.

Seems the press has been probing

into his medical history.

What a stroke of good luck-

- We have problems too.

All right.

It's Erin.

She ran away last night.

Are you sure about this?

She left this note.

Does anyone else know?

We haven't gone to the police yet.

We thought it'd be best if

we came and spoke to you

first about it.

Sean, I don't have to tell you

that as soon as your

opponents get wind of this,

they're going to exploit it to the hilt.

Your chances of winning

the Republican nomination

will be a virtual zero.

People are going to be saying,

"If he can't run his own home,

how could he possibly run the country?"

My advice to you as your friend

and future campaign manager

is to keep this as hush-hush as possible.

Is this gonna affect her safety at all?

What?

Keeping it quiet.

We're going to have to act quickly.

I know some people. I'll make some calls.

We'll get her back home. Don't worry.

We'll have her back, dear.

Hello?

What took your a*s so m*therf*cking long?

I've been waiting here

all night for your call.

I'm leaving, Sugar.

Baby, listen to me. Listen.

I'm tired, it's late.

Just come home, okay?

I just wanna go home, Sugar.

I can't do this no more. I'm just tired.

What are you talking about, Naomi?

Sugar, I have been thinking

long and hard about this sh*t

and I just don't wanna do it no more.

I don't wanna work the track no more.

Okay? I'm tired.

Don't pull this sh*t on me, Naomi.

Don't do this sh*t, baby.

I wanna see my mama and my sister.

I know, I know.

I understand all that,

but I need you too, baby.

Plus that white girl

you got at the apartment.

You know it ain't right, Sugar.

The girl can't even see.

All right.

You know, you done lost your

m*therf*cking mind, Naomi,

doing this sh*t over the f*cking phone.

It's time. I gotta go.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Hello?

Hello?

Oh, what the f*ck!

Everything's all right, baby?

Everything's fine, baby.

So what do you do now?

That's a good question.

It's a really good question, actually.

Yeah, that was probably the hardest thing.

But you know, when you

gotta do what you gotta do.

I don't know. They say,

"No pain, no gain."

I'm tired.

I miss my mama.

My mama gon' be happy, but you know,

that man was my heart.

Hope he know that though.

This pimpin' over here shorty

Pimpin' over here

I look at my pimp as my husband.

He take care of me.

I take care of him, you know?

And it's like a lot of people think like,

a pimp is just somebody

that comes to slap me around

and take my money and stuff like that.

It ain't even like that.

It's like, when, what he

does for me is something

that I had nothing before I met him.

My baby daddy was in jail.

I had to pay my bills and he offered me

like a whole new life.

Ever since I've been with

him, all my bills is paid.

My lights is on, my phone is on.

My kids is fed.

I don't have to worry about nothing.

So to me, he's like my husband.

That's like my man.

So I have the most respect

for him, much love.

It's nothing like what everybody think.

And I'm just like, you know,

I wanna set the record straight

that we're taken care of.

We ain't out here, all

of us ain't out here,

like doing drugs.

We out here, we're business women.

I'm an entrepreneur.

I don't call myself a hoe.

I'm handling business.

I'm getting money, you know,

and I'm taking care of mine.

If I wasn't doing this ain't no telling

where I'd be right now

or what I'd be doing.

So that's basically how I feel about him

and the misconception or misunderstanding

of what we got here, for

all of us ain't stupid.

Some of us been to school.

It just because I

personally like having sex,

I don't mind getting paid for it.

That's how it is for me.

If I could have fun and

enjoy myself and make money,

it's all good.

Dr. Forest, dial 12 please.

Dr. Forest, please deal 118.

Hi.

I was told I could pay for a room here.

Okay. Patient's name?

Joshua Valentine.

Oh, let me see.

You must be his oldest. Lance, right?

No. Sugar.

All right. Well, these are fixed rates.

For a larger private, it is $600 a week.

Full private, 1000.

You get television, cable

and phone charges are separate in both.

I'll take the full private one.

Okay, would you like to

pay with the credit card

or installment plan?

I'll pay cash.

All right.

I will put in this request for you.

However, we won't be able to do anything

until tomorrow morning.

Okay. All right, that's cool.

All right, thanks.

You're welcome.

Hey.

You damned near scare me.

Hey man, how you doing?

Oh, your old man is all right, baby.

Except for what when try to feed me

this ol' f*cked up hospital food.

Well, we working on that.

How's Naomi?

I kicked that b*tch out.

She walked out on ya.

Yeah.

How's that little blind girl doing?

She's still blind.

What's the word tonight?

How are you doing in the game, Sugar?

I'm doing all right.

You know sh*t in this

piece is changing nowadays.

You know that, right?

Pimpin' is a dying breed nowadays, Sugar.

All these young n*gg*s,

they done wanna be drug

dealers and hustlers

and taken all the

respectability out of the game.

See,

four or five good hoes,

it's like money in the bank.

You can get yourself

four or five good ones

and treat them with respect,

and you can get respect

anywhere in the country.

Here.

Here, pop.

Oh, sh*t.

I want you to take

care of yourself, pop.

Yeah.

- I love you now.

- I love you too.

You gotta take stock, Sugar.

Get yourself two or three good hoes.

Put them on the stroll.

One b*tch can't feed you nowadays.

It says that in the Bible.

Any other problem,

is you got a lot of

renegade hoes out there.

Hoes that's horny for crack.

$5 p*ssy.

Back in the day, we was gentlemen.

Ain't no respectability no more.

Nowadays, people look at p*mps

like we two bits of skin peddlers.

You know what I'm saying?

How are you feeling

tonight, Mr. Valentine?

Oh, I'm feeling fine, baby.

I'm feeling better now than I've seen you.

Okay.

How are you doing today?

I'm good.

One of my little friend.

I want you to take

care of yourself, pop.

Yeah, I'm a make it through this, man.

This ain't nothing.

Pimpin' is hard, this ain't none.

Don't f*ck your head up

with all this thinking.

This is the natural

order of things, Sugar.

That's what I tried to

teach you and your brother

when I put you in the game.

You either pimpin' or you hoein'.

Ain't nothing in the middle.

That's really everything in life.

You gotta be different, Sugar.

You gotta take your

game to the next level.

These young n*gg*s is

beating these b*tches.

Don't you do that.

Treat 'em with respect.

Treat 'em like family and

they do anything you need.

They'll always be there for you.

You hear what I'm telling you?

Yep.

Old school Cadillacs, Chevys, Impalas,

Hoe holler, you can call me Mr. Dollar

I'm all about my money

Hoe you make, got my money

b*tch has gots to go

'Cause big pimpin' over here

Come over here, shorty

Now, get in where you fit in

Hi, Sugar.

What's up, pretty?

Clap your hand, man.

Yeah, next to your hand, baby.

You just walked in when

some danger about to happen.

Just like I was saying, it's a catch 22.

My b*tch becomes trustworthy, I love her.

If I show her love,

she become trustworthy.

It's how that sh*t rock.

How you know that she

trustworthy, Smooth?

'Cause I can just tell, n*gga.

It's all in the eyes.

If a b*tch out there doing wrong,

being shifty and sh*t like that,

then she can't look you

straight in the face

'cause she know the same

n*gga she doing wrong

is the n*gga that's loving her.

There's some psychology love sh*t.

I figured it out.

I feel ya.

It's all in the eyes, baby.

It's all in the eyes.

The eyes, huh?

That's right.

What if one of your

b*tches is cross eyed?

What the f*ck are you

gonna think of that sh*t?

Well, Holly, it started out in college.

That's when I was

approached by a few people

and I'd be going to a club

and they'd offer me money.

And I, you know, I thought, f*ck sweet.

I get to go out, party.

I meet someone I like and f*ck 'em.

I was gonna f*ck 'em anyway probably.

So you know, but yeah...

So that's how it kind of, it started.

So like I was saying, I

goes to the b*tches back,

you know what I'm saying?

I'm starting to see all kinds of sh*t.

I'm seeing receipt breakdowns.

I'm seeing hair salami seeds.

Man, I even saw some sh*t

from the m*therf*cking bull.

Let me tell you, man.

I'm thinking this b*tch out there

getting my m*therf*cking money.

You know this b*tch somewhere

sipping some m*therf*cking cognac

listening to Johnny Coltrane or some sh*t.

Man, I could beat these b*tches asses.

I don't have a pimp for many reasons.

I just have no problems

really finding work on my own.

So I don't need someone

to take some of my money.

I don't need someone to share it with.

I don't need someone to watch out for me.

A pimp does, you know, as

much as they can and that's...

f*ck, it's still not that much.

You see, that's some bull sh*t to me.

Discipline's not mine.

sh*t, ain't that the truth.

Yeah, let a b*tch try to skim on me.

The capped on player.

You know, it ain't always

gotta be the b*tch, man.

Everybody at this table knows.

Let's talk about the attitude.

It's the attitude.

I can't believe that.

See, that's why I don't

f*ck with the sisters.

High maintenance, man.

Cutting into my profits.

I gotta go down there

and bail your a*s out

every 15 minutes.

Yo, that last b*tch you had.

She be trouble for real.

That b*tch in jail every

m*therf*cking other day.

This b*tch argue with everybody.

She arguing with the cops.

She arguing with the trick.

She arguing with the other hoes.

This b*tch would have

argued with Jesus Christ.

If she went to church.

I know this, man.

But a m*therf*cking cop be f*cking

with these white b*tches.

That's the sh*t.

See, these m*therf*cking tricks,

they look at my b*tches

and they see they nieces,

They see they daughters

in my b*tches eyes, man.

It ain't no cost to me, man.

I cater to businessman.

Japanese businessmen, white businessmen.

They ain't scared of my white hoes.

They scared of these sisters.

And it don't matter, man.

Pimpin' is the only m*therf*cking thing

where you can sell a product,

keep it and sell it again.

Just like everything else in

America, man. White sells.

That's deep.

There are times when I'd like a pimp.

Once in a while, I'd like

someone just to have my back.

It gets rough out there

sometimes, you know?

And sh*t happens.

So it'd be nice if there was somebody

who had my back once in a while.

What's wrong with him?

What the f*ck is wrong with you, Sugar?

You've been acting funny

since you walked up in this m*therf*cker.

I think I'm gonna

have a early night, man.

Already, man?

Oh man, sit down. Let me

open a can of whoop a*s.

See, that's that bullshit, man.

You wanna ride in the Cadillac

I wanna ride in a Cadillac

How would you like to sip on this guy

Come on girl, sip it on

Let's call girl, hop up on the bed

Girl, come on ride with me now

This is pimpin' over here, shorty

Pimpin' over here

You wanna ride in the Cadillac

Hey, what's up, Sugar?

What's up?

sh*t.

Hi, Sugar.

Damn!

What's wrong?

Can you do me a favor?

Anything for you, baby?

Just stop sitting in the dark like that.

It ain't cool, man.

Oh, okay.

But it doesn't really bother me.

It bothers me.

Okay.

Sugar.

Yeah.

Where are you?

I'm in the kitchen, baby.

- Sugar.

- Yeah, baby.

Can I ask you a question?

Yeah, anything.

When are you gonna let me work?

I'm not sure, man.

Why aren't you sure?

Look, for one thing, I don't know...

I don't know how to say this.

Just say it, baby.

I don't know too many blind hookers.

And?

And I don't know if the

fact that you can't see

is gon' be a...

What the hell am I talking about?

Of course it's gonna be a problem.

Can we talk about this tomorrow, man.

I'm a keep it real with you.

I'd be out here doing this sh*t anyway.

And at least with a pimp, I

have some type of security.

Someone who understands

what I'm going through.

These girls out here

that don't have a pimp,

those are the girls that you find stuffed

in a f*cking garbage can,

or are strung out or something like that.

Like just last week, this girl,

she don't got no pimp.

She's out here by herself.

Next thing you know, she's f*cking dead.

She doesn't got no job security,

and that's what that means

to me, having a pimp.

Is job security.

Hey, honey.

Hey, what's up there?

What you need?

Nah, let me get a Pit Bull.

One Pit Bull.

So what's up?

Nothing, I'm chilling.

What's been going on with you?

This.

A little this and a little that?

A little this and a little more this?

I hear you.

You know that girl over there?

Not really?

She comes in here like

every night, I don't know,

for about a week now.

Orders the same bowl of soup.

Probably working the

strip, one of those girls.

I don't know.

I'm a have much money now.

Mind your business.

Let me talk to her.

Hey Foxy Brown?

Who are you? Superfly?

Good one, that's a good one.

Superfly.

You got me on that one.

So, you mind if I sit down?

Yeah.

Can I ask you a question?

Are you out here solo?

Yeah.

See, one day I got this flash.

It was like a revelation.

I can be my own pimp.

I'm gonna make myself rich.

And if I get out of line, I

kick the sh*t out of my own a*s.

See, in my mind, I need

a little sex to me.

You know, that's the problem

with you independent mindeds.

You know what I'm saying?

Y'all go out there and talking about,

look, I don't need no

pimp, I don't need this.

I don't need that.

I wanna be independent.

You know, I'm watching Oprah Winfrey.

I'm all...

Hey, let me tell you something.

What?

When you get in the

car with some weirdo-

- Okay, so you're gonna

save me from the weirdos?

Yeah, exactly.

I see.

So then, who's gonna save me from you?

Is that so?

See, I make more money than

you'll probably ever see.

You wanna know why?

No, why?

'Cause the hoe that I pimp,

she doesn't steal from me.

Yeah, in the hood I'm selling p*ssy.

That's what I do.

And I'm a always do that

and it ain't gon' change.

Everybody love p*ssy.

You can't change that.

I didn't do it. I didn't create it.

But I'm capitalizing off of it.

Thing about p*ssy that

people don't understand

is it stops wars.

Out there in the Middle East,

you got them fighting and k*lling

each other over this sh*t.

But what you could do is,

you can get you some

p*ssy shipped out there

and I guarantee you stop

that bullshit going on.

Good morning, Sugar.

Hey, I didn't mean to wake you up.

You didn't.

Tonight, baby?

All right.

Put you out on the track tonight.

We're offering $50,000 to anyone

who can give any substantial lead

as to my daughter's whereabouts.

Why the decision to go public, Senator?

My daughter's worth whatever

it takes to get her back.

Senator, do you think

your daughter's run

will be a campaign issue next year?

My daughter's safe return

is the most important

thing to me right now.

Senator, was your daughter on drugs?

No, I don't believe she was.

Could she have been kidnapped, Senator?

We believe that she's

acting on her own volition,

but we're not ruling

anything out right now.

Are you running for

the presidency, Senator?

At this time, I'm quite satisfied

with my service as the Senator

to the state of California.

Would your daughter's

incident affect that

in any way, Senator?

I believe it would. Thank you.

We keep it gangster, gangster

I just thought you might've

Sorry.

Look what the the North

wind done brought in.

What's going on, man?

I didn't know the day

was gonna start off good.

My favorite Valentine.

What's up, Greeny?

Sammy here?

Way he always is. In the back.

What's up, man?

What's happening?

Look. Okay.

See what it says here?

Thursday for San Domingo.

Okay?

What's today?

I really can't see good.

You don't see it?

I can see really good.

My receipts say 80 to 91.

Yours doesn't say that.

Yours say 118.

I'm not blaming you.

All I'm saying is, somebody

might add a number to this,

you don't look too good.

Look, I can't help you today. I'm sorry.

That's the way it goes.

Better luck next time though.

What's up, Sammy?

Yeah, how you doing?

Yeah. Listen, man, I need a spot.

I can't hook you up this

time, man. Not this time.

What the f*ck you talking about?

I can't do it.

I can't do it. I'm sorry.

News travels fast around here.

You know, word on the street is,

your last source of income,

what, early retirement?

Unless you got some b*tches

in your back pocket, dude,

I can't hook you up with nothing.

Look man, to hell with

what word on the street is.

All right, I'm going through

a little bumpy period right now, man.

But they'll come back.

What about that white

girl situation I got?

The white girl?

You mean Helen Keller?

She's blinder than a bat. You kidding me?

Only thing she's f*cking missing

is that stupid white stick.

Please, don't break my ba*ls. All right?

Come on, Sammy, man.

How long you known me, man?

You known me a long time, right?

You know you ain't gonna do this for me?

It is coming from the boss.

Mr. Sosa himself told me that.

You haven't paid your last debts.

What am I gonna do?

I'm gonna take the heat again? Come on.

I mean, you know, I can only do so much.

Come on, man.

Please.

What do you need?

All right, listen.

I'll tell you what, between you and me.

I'll do 1000, okay? You with me?

50%. I can't-

What?

Come on, man. Sammy-

He'll break my ba*ls.

I can't do anything more.

Come on.

Listen, how long have you known me, man?

Take it or leave it.

I mean, what...

I can't do anything else.

Bad enough I'm doing this.

All right, give it to me. All right.

- You all right with that?

- Yeah.

I'm sorry. What am I gonna do?

- I'll take it.

- Come on.

You know what I mean?

I take a lot of sh*t around here.

You're a good guy.

I'm trying to hook you up.

I'm tired of this sh*t.

Damn bus is never on time.

I was supposed to meet somebody

on a five o'clock from Sacramento.

And look what time it is.

Excuse me.

That bus came already.

It came already?

Are you sure?

Yeah. I was on it.

It came and left.

You were on that same bus?

Did you happen to see a

slim, Chinese girl in there?

I don't remember.

I don't think so.

I don't remember.

Damn, Lee, why you

always do this sh*t to me?

Excuse me.

I'm sorry.

I'm just thinking out loud.

My name's Lance by the way.

I'm Erin.

Nice to meet you, Erin.

Smoke?

How you want it, Sugar.

Just a trim, square in the back.

All right. How's business?

So, so.

Ain't that how it always is?

How's your father?

He's doing better.

Joshua Valentine.

Now there was a brother that had style,

class, all balled into one.

You couldn't touch him on that.

And the women love that man.

And he's a good looking brother too.

That he was.

Nah, you kind of remind me

of him every once in a while.

Especially when I don't

have my glasses with me.

Oh yeah.

Your brother was around here last night.

Even looking like a fine cat too.

He must be doing pretty

good in the street.

He gave me a $20 tip.

My pimp is like my man.

And then he's like my businessman,

you know, you feel me?

Like everything I do for this

n*gga is 'cause I love him.

You know, I really love this n*gga.

So, you know, if that

means standing out here

sunup to sundown selling my p*ssy,

that's what I'm a do.

That's what love'll do.

I don't know where m*therf*ckers get off

telling another person

how to express they love for somebody,

like they got all the answers and sh*t.

I'm pretty sure y'all probably

done did a lot of stupid

sh*t, just crazy sh*t,

and m*therf*ckers be like,

"Yo, you're doing away being,

you putting yourself out there."

But you did it any way.

'Cause you was in love, right?

Same sh*t.

Gangster love

Give me that gangster love

Okay, come on now

Give me, give me some

of that gangster love

Baby, gangster love

Give me that gangster love

Gangster love

Give me that gangster love

Baby, gangster love

Give me that gangster love

Now baby girl, you so beautiful

See, my man Lee Chen like

came here eight years ago.

Skipped some kind of political

prosecution back in China.

Family was involved with

some heavy sh*t down there.

Anyway, one thing leads

to another and bam,

eight years later, dude owns

like a string of Chinese

restaurants across Hollywood.

So one night, I get a craving for broccoli

and chicken wings.

You ever tried broccoli and chicken wings?

No, not really.

Not that I remember.

Okay, so where was I?

Broccoli and chicken wings.

Right, right, right, right, right.

By the way, I show you where you can get

some really good broccoli

and chicken wings.

So anyway, I'm standing there,

I'm waiting on my order,

and this dude walks in

and decides that he's gonna rob the place.

- No!

- Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

So now I'm mad as hell.

'Cause all the nights

this dude could've picked,

he picks the night that

I'm waiting on my sh*t.

So I'm thinking, what can I do?

So it's not like, I'm gonna

jump in front of no b*llet

or nothing like that.

So out of sheer self interest now,

I decide to convince the dude

not to rob the Chinese restaurant,

but go hit the Spanish

bodega on the corner.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, some crazy sh*t.

Yo, he's standing there

and the dude is thanking me for the tip.

I mean, we smilin' and

exchanging telephone numbers

and everything.

And ever since then, we've

been buddies ever since.

Lee Chen, he was the one who

owned the Chinese restaurant?

Nope.

He owned the bodega that

got robbed that night.

So that's when he decided it was safer

to go into the restaurant business.

So that's why you were at the depot?

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

So over the years, I do favors for him,

he does favors for me,

you know, like friends do.

And yesterday I was supposed to pick

the sister up for him since, you know,

he was a little tied up at the restaurant

and everything, and voila.

What's wrong?

Thank you so much for letting

me crash here last night.

I really, I'd like to...

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Come on now.

No need for all that.

It wasn't like I was gonna let you sleep

on that bench, girl.

Plus, you know, I kinda figured

you wanted to see Hollywood.

Come here, girl.

Everything is gonna be all right.

Hey, man.

Is Sosa around?

For what?

Talk to him about some business, man.

Back there.

Mr. Valentine.

Where can we find good,

honest help these days?

Nowhere I tell you.

Nowhere.

Now, what can I do for you, my friend?

Mr. Sosa, I was wondering

if I can have a little

more time with the loan.

More time.

Let me ask you a question, Mr. Valentine.

Did you know that my father

died when I was six years old?

So I was left to take care of my mother.

And then my sister is dying

from a terminal illness,

and has less than a week to live.

And that I have 13 sons that I provide for

in the Dominican Republic.

And they each have to get

their monthly allowance by tomorrow.

Do you know these things?

No, Mr. Sosa.

Do you know why you

don't know those things?

Because it's embarrassing.

And also because I choose not

to share them with people.

Because if people knew of such things,

they probably wouldn't want

to borrow money from me,

and then I'd be out of

business, wouldn't I?

So I keep them to myself

until someone walks in here

and tells me that I will not have money

in time to bury my sister.

Or that my mother can go to the hell.

Or that my sons will rot

in the hot sun of the Dominican Republic.

Then that person becomes

an enemy and not a friend.

So you see, Mr. Valentine,

your time is really running out

because of things I cannot control.

So there's really not much

more for us to discuss.

Good night.

All right.

Oh, by the way, Mr. Valentine,

if it's help that you're looking

for to pay back the loan,

word has it that your

brother is doing pretty well

for himself these days.

That's all right.

I'll get you your money, Mr. Sosa.

Hello?

Yeah, this is Sugar.

Hey look, look, Sammy, man.

I already told you I'm gonna find a way

to get you the money.

I don't care what the word

on the street is, man.

I already told you.

It's like I'm going through a

little turbulence right now.

A little melodrama.

You know, this sh*t

happens all the time, man.

Look, y'all always get y'all money, right?

All right, man.

I'll have the money for you by Friday.

Is that it?

Is everything okay?

Excuse me.

I said, is everything okay?

What, did you wake up

on the right side of bed this morning?

Funny.

Listen, I wanna apologize.

I know I was a little rude the other day.

So I'm sorry.

Okay. Apology accepted.

By the way, I never got your name.

It's Sugar.

Sugar Valentine.

Sweet.

- Sweet.

- Sweet.

So, you've been a pimp long?

A little while now.

So you've been hooking long?

- Me?

- Yeah. You.

Yeah, a little while.

Okay.

That's funny 'cause I ain't

seen you around here before

since the other night.

That's 'cause I was

working in the Bay Area.

The Bay Area.

A lot of money in the Bay Area.

What you doin' out here in Hollywood?

What, are you a cop or something?

A cop.

Yeah. Bonnie Miller.

All right, if you really must know,

I got into a little beef with

my old man in the Bay Area.

I needed a fresh start

and Hollywood looked like

a good place to come.

So anyways, I'm looking

for my kid sister too.

Kinda cute.

She reminds me of somebody.

She ain't blind, is she?

Excuse me?

Forget it.

Nah, I ain't seen her.

Are you sure she's in Hollywood?

'Cause you know, LA is a pretty big city.

For all you know, she could

probably still be up in the Bay.

Yeah, well, I got

relatives looking there too.

I was thinking though,

maybe you could help

me talk to some people.

Why would you think that?

My mama always said, "You

never know unless you ask."

Well, my mother always said,

"Boy, stop walking on

the back of that shoe.

You know how much I

paid for those things?"

That's what my mama used to say.

Anyway, read your manual.

p*mps recruit.

We don't deliver.

How about we make a deal?

How about I give up my solo lifestyle,

and I come to work for you exclusively?

Give me a second to think about that.

You got yourself a deal.

Hey ma, what's happenin'

I mean, I see you've been

lookin' at me all night

I know you got some on your mind

It's a normal thing

Holler at your boy

- What's up, Smooth?

- What's up, Sugar?

- What's up, baby?

- I'm feeling real good.

Listen man, I'm looking

for this white girl, man.

Have you seen her?

I haven't seen her, man.

Hey, Curly.

I don't mean to bother you man,

but I'm looking for the girl.

Have you seen her around?

Nah.

That's the ugliest b*tch

I've seen all my life,

but who is she?

Her sister.

Damn!

This is an everyday thing with me.

b*tch, you think I'm out

here half time pimpin',

part-time pimpin', b*tch.

I pimp in overdrive.

These other suckers

pimp in neutral, b*tch.

As a matter of fact,

your b*tch a*s pimpin'

in reverse right now, I need my money.

So whatever you got to do, baby,

bring my m*therf*cking money.

I need my goddam cash.

I ain't got time to wait on y'all hoes

to bring me my money.

Hold on, b*tch.

Yo, C. What's up man?

Hey, what's up?

We are looking for this girl right here.

You seen her?

Nah, Sugar. I ain't seen her, man.

But sh*t, she kinda fine though.

This is what you look for, huh?

Tell you what I do.

If I run across a b*tch,

I'll give you a holler out.

That's how we do it.

You know, from one pimp to another.

All right, b*tch, I'm back now.

What was I saying?

b*tch, I need my m*therf*cking money.

You know what they

call pickle in France?

A pickle!

Hey, you know what they

call a Bic Mac in France?

Don't do that.

Don't do it.

Stop.

A Big Mac.

Wait, wait, wait, hold on a second.

Do you know what they call a

Big Mac in France in the hood?

Big Mac?

Nah, m*therf*cking Big Mac.

I'll have a m*therf*cking Big Mac please.

You just didn't go there.

How long you been in these streets?

This area, like Hollywood.

I don't know.

I've been out here for

a couple of years now.

Are you from there?

Originally, I'm from the East coast.

Moved out here with my brother and my dad.

New York?

Philly

Philly.

I've never been to Philly.

- Good steaks.

- That's the truth.

Good steaks.

Good steaks, and cheese.

Yeah, you heard of

Philly steaks and cheese?

Yeah, I heard it.

Hey, I'm really happy I met you.

Yeah, me too.

I've had fun.

I've really had fun.

And then look, we gon'

find your sister too.

We gon' find her.

Yeah.

The things that people share with you,

you don't get that in any other job.

I mean, just a couple of weeks ago,

this guy just got dumped

by his girlfriend.

Who does he come to? He comes to me.

He could've gone anywhere

but he came to me.

And he has a ring in his pocket

that he was gonna give to her,

he gave it to me instead.

He could've taken it back to the store,

got his money back, but he gave it to me.

He had no reason to do that.

And you know, I could go hock this,

good hook up, 100 bucks,

but it means a lot to me.

I wouldn't do that.

And that's just kind of people

that you meet in this job.

Somebody different every day

and every single person that I meet,

they change me in a small little way.

I change them. They change me.

We leave a mark on each

other that never goes away.

And whether it's good or bad,

whoever that trick is that I meet,

that person is forever

gonna change my life.

They leave this small

little mark on my soul.

Thanks for bringing me out here today.

I know you got a lot going on.

It's really pretty out here.

You never been out here before?

No, I just got to LA like two years ago.

You know, I own a couple of these boats.

- Really?

- Nah, I'm just kidding.

You're silly.

So what'd you wanna talk about?

Do you find me attractive at all?

Yes.

I find you very attractive.

Stupid question.

No, no. It's not a stupid question.

Why do you ask me that?

You never tried to holler at me before.

I see you talking to chicks and it's like,

you never say two words to me in that way.

Do you know what I do?

I mean, you know what I do for a living?

Yeah, I know what you do.

Okay.

Well, I've never looked at you like that.

You're still going to college?

I wanna keep going.

Okay, I'll make a deal with you.

You stay in school, you keep

working at the restaurant

and I help you out from time to time.

You can do that for me?

Yeah.

God, no one ever done anything

like that for me before.

Call me?

I will.

All right, bye.

I see you ain't out here with nobody.

Listen to me, why we can

Why we can't team up?

I don't f*cking need you.

I notice you ain't out here with nobody.

Yo, I work my sh*t alone, okay?

Alone?

He's a hot boy

Come on, ride with me shorty

Hop up in a whip with me shorty

You gon' let moms fold?

That's a Billy Dee line.

He said that to Diana Ross

in one of those movies.

What am I supposed to do with this?

I mean, anything you like.

But most women usually take it home,

put some water in 'em and stuff.

I mean, I didn't mean it like that.

Nah, it's cool.

It's cool.

Hey, read the card.

Excuse me.

I wrote it.

If true love can blind,

then let me see no longer.

Will you be there as my guide,

we'll develop in 2020.

Sugar.

You know, you're the first woman

I ever had the guts to

give one of my poems to.

Actually, I gave my mom

one when I was a kid.

And then I gave one to this

other girl who used to...

Oh yeah.

- You know-

- Maybe we should-

Maybe we should go.

You know, you remind me of Niskayuna.

Niska who?

Niskayuna.

Niska who?

It's a place, not a person.

It's like the Garden of Eden.

It's got flowers and it's got birds

and it's got cottages.

Sometimes in late May or early April,

you get the smell of like

sunflowers and pollen

and it's just so beautiful.

You remind me of that place.

Okay. So I remind you of...

- Niskayuna.

- Okay.

When I look in your eyes,

I get the same feeling

I get when I'm up there.

And what's this feeling?

Like I wanna live there forever.

I thought today was your day off.

It is, sir. I needed to talk.

What can I do for you?

It's about the Fuller case.

How you doin' man?

You lied to me.

You told me you were going

to take care of yourself but,

you're not looking too good.

Hey, the nurse outside said that,

you done got all the hoes

locked up on this floor.

I got some good news too.

I met this girl.

She's fine as hell.

You'd like her too.

She's so wonderful.

And I've been thinking.

I want out the game, man.

I mean, I want a family, I want a house.

I want some kids.

And let's face it.

I wasn't really that

good at pimping anyway.

Anyway, I got some stuff

to go take care of.

Take care of yourself, man.

Honey, it's okay.

You nervous?

A little bit, I guess.

Well, you'll always be

nervous the first time.

Ain't nothing to it.

Here, take a hit of this.

I don't want to.

Trust me.

I wouldn't give you nothing

to hurt you, baby girl.

Could I do it later, Lance?

I promise.

I think I'll feel more comfortable later.

Sure. No problem.

It's okay.

Now, you remember what we talked about?

Let's review them.

First, if the cars are

marked, you don't get in.

Remember, we prefer a

two-door to four-door.

Second, you don't discuss price.

You let him do the talking.

I mean, you can ask him

if he needs someone to hang out with,

needs someone to talk

to, that kind of thing.

But then, you look at

his watch and his shoes.

They never lie.

When you get in, take 'em straight

to the Wind General Hotel on 35th.

If he wants to stop off for a bite to eat,

a sandwich or a drive through

or just to pick up

cigarettes, gum whatever,

you ain't interested, so you just get out.

And you get to the Wind

Gen, ask for Mikey.

Tell him you want room 403.

I got an account over there.

Your service is standard.

None of that freaky sh*t.

You take exact cash only.

He pays first and you do not give change.

If he wants to get

undressed, that's his choice.

You don't.

Got that, baby?

And remember, I'll be there

the whole night watching

just to make sure you okay.

Who is it?

What the f*ck you want, man?

To talk.

About?

I got a problem.

Let's make this sh*t quick, man.

You know I got business to take care of.

Okay.

Look, regardless of how

you may feel about me, man,

we're still family.

And I know even since we were kids,

like we never really

seen things eye to eye.

Well, anyway man, in the

last couple of months,

the old man has been moved

to the intensive care unit

over at King's County and his

situation has gotten worse.

Well, anyway, in the last

couple of months, man,

I've been kind of taking

care of the bills and stuff.

And I'm not saying that I can't,

it's just that I just borrowed some money

and I got into a little situation.

So what you want from me?

I don't know, man.

I was just thinking

that maybe, you know...

I just thought that maybe

you could help some...

You know him?

No.

What the f*ck's wrong with you, n*gga?

You high, m*therf*cker?

You on crack?

No.

I just forgot some, man.

Basically, if you

don't have what I need,

you gotta keep it moving with speed.

A lot of jobs, a lot of guys coming here,

talking about they wanna see me,

they want to take me

somewhere and they got $200.

Who the f*ck I look like?

So I need somebody that's

comin' with real cheese.

I choose my customers.

They don't choose me.

n*gg*s roll up all the

time trying to holler.

But if they money ain't right,

they car ain't right, they

clothes ain't looking right,

I'm not getting in the car with them.

So that's the part of control, I have.

I could choose whoever I wanna f*ck,

where I wanna f*ck him,

how I wanna f*ck him.

So it's like, I'm a business woman.

This is my business.

I run it how I wanna run it.

A lot of b*tches out

here jumping and crying

when nearly everybody

bought 50 bucks, anything.

That's like, all right,

that's your hustle.

That's why your clothes

is looking like that.

You know what I'm saying?

That's why I'm geared up and you're not.

So just gotta run your business right.

Thanks for meeting me out here.

When I was a kid, my dad used to bring me

and my brother up here

and we would just chill.

Just kind of watch the cars go by

and we would just pick

out the cars we wanted.

Red, that's mine.

Blue, that's mine.

It's funny because white

parents take their kids fishing.

My dad took us to the roof.

The roof, the roof

The roof is on fire

Sometimes it's hard to believe

that this is the same place I grew up in.

Hollywood.

It's changed a lot.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

Everything okay?

What's with the long face?

Nothing.

Come on.

Whenever you say nothing,

I know it means something.

What's wrong?

You know, it's cold.

It's cold out here.

Well, it's cold out here.

Damn, you look like a pimp in my coat.

Thank you.

Do you ever think about

doing something else?

Something else like what?

I don't know, like a normal job.

Yeah.

I thought about it.

Maybe one day, get my

book of poems published

or something like that.

Sure.

I mean, I don't know.

It's not like you just go

and get your book published.

You gotta prepare for that.

You just gotta psychologically

get yourself worked up.

It's like, Maya Angelou

didn't just wake up

and get her book published.

You know, she was grinding for years.

What's stopping you, huh?

I kinda wanna be discovered.

It's a better story.

That way, you got something interesting

to talk to Jay Leno about.

Like if I'm sitting on the couch,

I'm gonna be like, "You know what, Jay?

The pimping game got a little..."

Stop.

Stop.

What about you?

- Me?

- Yeah, yeah.

You ever think of doing something else?

From what?

From, do you have some other profession

we don't know about?

I just don't feel like

talking about this right now.

I'm sorry.

Come, come, come. Jump, jump.

What's wrong with you?

You haven't talked since the roof.

It's Erin.

I saw her tonight.

What?

Yeah.

Well, why didn't you tell me?

Look, I don't want you tripping.

I just didn't wanna

get you all worked out.

Sugar, you know how

important this is to me.

I just...

Well, just take me to her.

I can't.

It's not like we can just go

and just grab her from where she's at.

Well, why not?

Just trust me, we can't,

but we'll get her though.

Just give me some time.

- Okay.

- All right?

Sure.

What up, Sug?

My man, Sug.

What's up, man?

Hi, Sugar.

Where are you?

Right here, in front of you.

Oh.

Baby, I've been kind of thinking.

Thinking about what?

That maybe tomorrow I go

back to my uncle's house.

You know, go back to school.

I really don't think this life is for me.

That's good.

I'm a drop you off tomorrow.

Okay.

Yeah man, I need a vacation.

Sounds like fun.

Yeah.

All right, that's our guy.

All right, suspect is moving.

Let's get ready to roll.

Hey, what's up, Kool?

What's going on, man?

What's going on, man?

Pimpin' ain't easy but sure

is necessary, ain't it?

So, I heard you wanted to see me, man.

What's going on?

Yeah, man.

It's about that white girl

you been rolling with.

Rachel?

What about her?

Stay away from her, Sugar.

She's undercover, man.

What the f*ck you talking about?

She busted two of my

regulars the other night.

b*tch packing a badge and everything.

Sure about this?

Yeah, man. I'm sure.

Snow was eyeing her.

He sent one of his white

girl to scope her out,

see where her head is at.

She definitely undercover, man.

You all right?

Yeah, man. What time you got?

It's 11:30.

Somebody I gotta take care of, man.

Got to go.

All right.

Handle your business.

Yo Lance, I need to talk to you, man.

What the f*ck you want now, man?

I thought I told you before

to stop using that crack.

It ain't about that, man.

It's about her.

Let me see about her.

Okay, go in the car.

Now, what the f*ck's on

your mind little brother?

I mean, you're violating, scheming

a home mom b*tch.

What you talking about, man?

I'm talking about, you need to back off.

Yo look, man. It's

bigger than you think.

Every single cop in this city

is looking for that white girl.

Man, f*ck you, man.

I don't think you understand, man.

Look, Lance.

You can't turn that white girl out.

Can't get turned out.

Well, who the f*ck are you?

Her fairy m*therf*cking godmother?

What? You captain save a hoe?

Flying around the ghetto saving hoes.

I mean you come in front

of my f*cking house

to tell me about my b*tch.

Well look, you know what?

You family, right?

So I'm gonna tell your a*s

this sh*t one last time.

You in violation, man.

What are you talking about, violation?

You're talking food off my plate, n*gga.

That's how?

Now, that b*tch is subject to get broken.

Come on, tell me.

Tell me it ain't true.

That you tried to play me out like that.

Say something.

Look, it wasn't supposed

to happen like that.

I can't believe this sh*t.

Why?

I don't know what to

say, except I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to hurt you, even

though as much as you tried,

every time I looked at your

face, I kept seeing a pimp.

Even a pimp has a heart.

Even a pimp, officer.

If it means anything to you at all,

I'd asked them to take me off the case

when I realized I was getting in too deep.

Too deep?

Too deep?

What do you think this is? A game?

I was going to change my life for you.

You know what happens

when a guy falls in love?

That's like the essence of deepness.

I'm sorry.

I learned a lot though.

f*ck your sermon.

I don't really care what you learned.

See, it's your actions that's

speaking loud to me right now.

But you know what?

Before tonight, I thought there

was a really big difference

between you and most of the

girls that work out here.

Congratulations, Rachel.

You just turned your first trick.

Yeah, I got some family but...

What's there to tell about that?

No, my mom died.

She died when I was fairly young

and I lived with my stepdad

who was a f*cking nightmare.

And I wanted out of that

house as soon as possible.

So I got a scholarship, went to college

and then moved on from there.

So I don't give a f*ck about him,

but I do think about my

sister once in a while.

I think about her a lot.

So, you know, she's still

in the house with them.

So she's considerably younger than me.

And you know, I wanna

be there kind of like,

I don't want to be there for it,

but you gotta do what you gotta do.

You want my arm to fall off?

Anyway, you're lucky to be alive.

How are you feeling?

What do you care?

I'm a pimp, remember?

I came here to say that I'm sorry.

Sorry for what?

For settin' me up?

For lyin'?

For being a cop?

Which one?

I wanna apologize for everything.

I realized I didn't give you the chance,

and if you wanna change your life

I think you should be

given a chance to do that.

Was that one of your big revelations?

So anyway, whatever happened last night,

if you wanna follow up,

there's an officer outside.

No, it's cool.

Just a couple people I owe some money to.

That's all. They don't like waitin'.

Anything I can do to help?

Nope.

I think you've done enough. Thanks.

I'd really like to visit.

What the hell are you talking about now?

Niskayuna.

You said it was a beautiful place

and I'd really like to visit.

They found this in the back alley.

I thought you might want it, you know.

You know your way with words.

You've got some real talent.

Excuse me. You Sugar Valentine?

Look, I already told the officer

I don't wanna press any charges.

That's an entirely different matter.

We have a warrant for your arrest.

My arrest? What are you talking...

Class E misdemeanor.

Interfering with governmental operations.

Valentine, you made bail.

Come on, let's go.

Well, the man of the hour.

I'm Senator Shawn Fuller.

Erin Fuller's my daughter.

I believe you're familiar with her.

Yeah.

In this case, I guess I owe you this.

$50,000?

You helped find my daughter

and in the process you saved my family.

Thank you.

Got any plans what

you're gonna do with it?

Got a couple of

Dominicans I need to go see.

Thanks.

You did it.

All I did was make some phone calls,

make sure you got your reward.

I've been thinking.

I'm ready to get out the life.

Really?

I can't do this no more.

That's right.

But first, I got a book

I gotta start writing.

Nice.

You take care of yourself, okay?

You too.

Ride boy

Help me when we get down boy

Now, I want you to get with me tonight

I wanna make you feel just fine

I stopped pimpin' about

15 years, 20 years ago.

Yeah.

I stopped pimpin' about

15 to 20 years ago.

But when I stopped pimpin'

it never stopped me from going to pen.

I kept going to pen

because there was things

I was still trying to do,

but that was in my head,

but my heart wasn't in what I was doing.

But today I can say my

life a lot different

because I put my heart into what I wanted

and I show a lot of love.

But you know, most of

all, I think about him,

I miss my father, 'cause he

was a big impact in my life.

He taught me a lot, man.

He taught me about living, man.

He taught me about the

right things in life to do.

But I was there for him, man.

And he was there for me too.

It hurt inside, you know.

Just being life and missing

some of the good things.

Today, I think about him a lot, man.

And I hurt inside, you know, from...

There were so many things in life, man,

that I wanted to do

that I couldn't do, man.

I'm still carrying a lot of hurt inside.

The girl in my life that came in my life,

she brought me a lot of joy.

But after I found out where she was at,

I didn't have nobody, man.

I was all out there by myself, man.

Just like starting all over again in life.
