Spark: L.I.F.E. (2023)

[bunniefuu]

[overlapping chatter]

[screaming]

[panting]

[phone ringing]

[applause]

[gasp]

Karo where are you?

No, it's fine.

I'll drive myself, thank you.

[phone ringing]

[sigh] Mummy please, not now. [sucks teeth]

[exclaims softly]

[chuckling]

When are you going to buy a padlock?

Huh?

You're always using

sticks to wedge your door.

Are you the poorest person?

And how does that concern you?

It concerns me!

Because if something goes missing,

you'll disturb everybody

trying to look for who stole from you.

So it's my business.

Mind your business!

Look at her!

Well you don't have

anything worth stealing.

If you had property like me...

I'd have gone to buy a padlock since.

[car screeching]

Jesus!

[taping]

Good morning sir.

Where is Ema?

Uh... she should be in her office sir.

If she was there,

do you think I would be wasting

my time asking you?

No sir.

Your friend is playing with her job.

Hm?

[exhales]

[indistinct]

[phone calling]

Won't you pick your call?

[phone calling]

[exhales]

Babe...

The weirdest thing happened

to me this morning.

What?

You're late. Again.

See, I know I'm late.

I'm saying that the weirdest

thing happened to me this morning-

I heard you the first time.

We're not going to talk about it now.

We'll talk about it later.

Your meeting has started.

Williams is already there.

Mr Fred has come to look for you.

He's very upset.

Go! Give me your bag.

- Okay.

- Go.

Go.

[car honking]

Yinka. What's wrong with you?

Do you think you can stroll

into my rehearsal as you like?

For what?

Because you think you're my best dancer?

No sir...

- I didn't have-

- Enough.

That doesn't concern me.

I don't care what you have or didn't have.

You need to get yourself together.

You need to set your priorities straight,

and make sure you get this

dance routine properly.

Do you hear me?

If this happens again,

it's over for you

You're gone.

Understand?

Yes sir.

I'm sorry. It won't happen again.

It definitely won't.

What else are you still standing here for?

Sorry sir.

Now take it from the top.

Hey, how did it go?

I think I might get fired.

With good reason.

Good reason?

Yes!

You've been late

five times already this month alone.

Back to back.

And to think that you are handling the

biggest presentation we have next week.

You don't even look like you're ready.

Or do you want Willy to come

and take the presentation from you?

He will collect that account

without thinking twice.

Kevwe, honestly...

I don't know what's happening.

It just feels as if we-

Mr Fred wants to see us.

Don't you know how to knock

before entering an office?

What do you want?

I said Mr Fred wants to see us now.

- Okay.

- Now please?

Well she's heard you. Leave!

Leave.

Do you want to carry her on your back?

I hope it's not what I think it is?

Look...

Get your sh*t together.

This guy is coming for you.

Thanks babes.

Thanks for always having my back.

5... 6... 7... Go!

Well done, guys.

Well done. Eh...

But you still need to work on the timing.

Really?

- Tobi?

- Yes sir.

Yinka.

I hope you are both

getting ready for your duet?

You cannot afford to mess this up. Okay?

Alright. Everyone see you tomorrow,

same time, same place.

Have a great day.

Yes sir.

Why do you always single her out?

Like she's better than the rest of us.

It's not like I can't do

whatever it is you tell her to.

For someone who cant tell

her left from her right feet,

you have a big mouth.

Your mouth is very, very loud.

You can leave if you think

you know any better.

[expressing annoyance]

Uh...

Mr. Bayo!

- Mr. Bayo!

- [sigh]

Yinka what is it?

- Please I want-

- I don't have money.

I'll return it.

You'll return it?

You always say that.

When exactly will you return it?

Even the one before that one.

Did you return it? Huh?

You see where I'm going right?

I don't have money.

Mr. Bayo, I haven't eaten since yesterday.

Once I get paid for this job,

I'll pay you back.

I promise. I'll give you back.

[mimicking Yinka]

See your mouth.

I know you're not that type of peson.

[mimics Yinka]

- Thank you sir.

- [mimics Yinka]

Don't disappoint me, okay?

Yes sir.

[Music]

[sighs]

But I've told you you can always ask me.

Have I not told you to

stay away from my business?

I just want to help you.

I don't need your help.

Thank you.

[sigh]

[sigh]

[phone ringing]

[sigh]

Hello?

Dewo.

[soft chuckle]

Work is fine.

Yeah, I already sent it.

I'm sure you'll get the alert very soon.

Bye. Good night.

Dewo.

[indistinct]

[sucks teeth]

[sigh]

[phone ringing]

Mommy... Dewo.

[chuckles]

Hope you're not so bored over there.

No, no...

I just got off the phone with him now.

Yeah, I already sent the money.

Yes ma.

Alright mommy, have a good night's rest.

Bye-bye.

[sigh]

[sucks teeth]

[phone ringing]

[clears throat]

Hello, daddy.

Yes sir.

Uh... I don't have money right now.

When I get some money,

I'll see what I can do.

Yes sir.

Yes sir.

Amen.

[phone vibrating]

[sigh]

[exhales]

[indistinct chatter]

- Kevwe.

- Yes?

Are you even listening to what I'm saying?

I'm listening to you.

So?

[scoffs] So...

I'm not sure you know what you want.

Ah-ah?

Because your dream doesn't make sense.

Think about it.

You have a job.

And you're the best at your job.

Yet you're talking about dancing.

Seems you've forgotten

how your mother struggled

to raise money for you to study abroad.

- Can you dance?

- Of course.

That's not the point.

I'm saying you should

focus on what's important.

But babes, I really wanted to be a

dancer when I was growing up.

Well, till things hit

rock bottom for my family.

And if things didn't hit rock bottom,

how are you sure you'd have

been a successful dancer?

[scoffs] I would have been.

[sucks teeth] See let me tell you,

look at your life, you

went a good school.

You have a good job and money,

you take care of

yourself and your family.

What more do you want?

Well they say if you don't give it a try,

you never can tell.

[laughs]

My darling, is it now you want to try?

- Yeah.

- At your age?

Or have you forgotten your age?

What's wrong with my age?

Are you watching your biological clock?

[sucks teeth] I'm

trying to tell you that,

this plan you have

and the one God has for you,

right now, it's not the same thing.

So you'll focus on the presentation

you have on Monday.

Because that's what's important.

- Babes.

- What?

Speaking of presentation.

Okay.

Do you know why-

Do you know why Mr Fred called us in?

Why?

Mr Fred wants me,

- Okay?

- And Willy,

to have like a separate

presentation to the client.

- [sucks teeth]

- [exclamation Ema,

This is so annoying.

You know this is your fault, right?

- I know...

- This is your fault.

I know...

This can only give Willy

opportunity to shine.

He's going to take advantage of it.

I know.

[exclamation]

Ema, you're playing with your work.

You're playing with your work.

In fact, right now,

You're playing with your whole life.

[sigh]

[Music]

[exhales]

You're distracted.

How do you mean?

Your mind is not here.

You keep losing focus.

What's wrong?

This is not how my life should be.

I thought you were happy doing this?

I am.

But I should be bigger than this.

When last did we get a paying gig?

Huh?

Tobi I don't eat well.

I don't eat.

But I've said you can always talk to me.

I can't keep depending on you and Bayo.

I have to find a better job on my own.

So I can take care of myself and my dad.

So if you eventually find this job,

what's going to happen

to your dance career?

Are you going to be happy

doing something else?

Maybe dance is not for me after all.

Happiness doesn't put food on the table.

It's okay.

Let's continue.

[sniffles]

[Music]

My child.

Are you lost?

Excuse me?

Are you lost?

Uh... Lost?

Me?

Yes. You.

Yes.

I am.

No... I'm not lost. I was just...

wondering if you're okay.

I am fine.

Thanks for your concern.

[exhales]

You're welcome ma.

Uh... ma.

Do you mind

coming with me to the food court

just to have some food?

Is there anything you want to ask me?

Uh... no.

[stuttering] No... not right now.

I can see that you're troubled.

Uh, how do you know ma?

I mean, troubled how?

[sigh] Okay.

So the thing is, I feel

on top of the world

when I'm on that stage.

No feeling in the world

beats that feeling for me.

But it all ends in disaster.

But the dream never stops.

So I don't know what to do.

Ma don't get me wrong.

I have a job and I love my job.

I mean...

It pays my bills,

takes care of me,

takes care of my family...

Well, even though Willy

is trying to take it from me.

I love my job.

Still...

I'm very confused.

So am I supposed to say something now?

Uh... I think so.

Hmm.

Contentment

Sometimes

It's good for us to appreciate.

What we have.

Okay

Ma, is it okay to drop you back at home?

Where do you say?

I'm fine.

I'll just go back to where I was.

Okay.

Alright.

Ma is that all you have to say to me?

Is there something different

you would like to hear?

No.

No.

[exhales] Ma.

Is there someone that is

coming to take you home?

Don't worry about me, I'll be fine.

Okay, but please,

let me just get you some money at least.

[sigh]

[unlocks car]

Ma. So...

Ah-ah.

Weird.

This woman is just weird.

[scoffs]

She does this all the time.

You have no idea what the other person

you wish to be is going through.

Uh... where did you... how did you...?

Were you the one I saw the other night?

[sigh]

So many questions at a time.

To which you would not

even get answers to now.

I'm sorry ma.

I'm not annoyed.

You don't have to be sorry.

Im just pointing out the obvious.

Uh...

I should be on my way ma.

I hope I'll see you someday.

[exclaims]

Sooner than you think my dear.

Yes, ma'am.

[sucks teeth]

[phone ringing]

[indistinct]

Go away.

[knocking]

Who is that?

Ah!

Who is that?

Wait-

I called you.

I declined. What's the matter?

Can I at least come in?

Please.

[sucks teeth]

Why are you annoyed?

[sucks teeth]

I went shopping and I

decided to shop for two.

I didn't ask you to do that.

Don't be annoyed.

I've already bought

them, can't return it.

What are friends for?

Tobi.

Tobi, you and I know

that you want more than friendship.

Yinka.

I know I want to be more

than friends with you,

but at least, let's be friends first.

Yeah right, what happens to Nkiru?

Who is that?

Yinka, you know Nkiru isn't my problem.

You know.

Okay please...

Stop being stubborn, and take this.

I've already bought them. Sorry.

Please Yinka.

I won't bother asking you any question.

Ehn, I know you didn't go to church.

Have you eaten?

Who told you I didn't go to church?

And yes, I've eaten.

[chuckles softly]

Yinka.

Get dressed.

Let's go and eat.

I'm not going anywhere.

Yinka.

Get something to wear,

let's go out and have something to eat.

Okay?

I'm waiting for you outside.

Don't waste time please.

I'm outside.

Hope you're ready for tomorrow?

Of course now, I told you I

prepared the whole of yesterday.

But babe, you know it's

not just about preparing?

Like you have to actually be ready.

Because all of us are counting on you.

Don't let Willy take

that account from you.

Thanks a lot.

No pressure at all.

I'm serious babe.

Hmm.

Good night and God bless.

Just don't forget to pray

for me tomorrow, okay?

This is not a praying matter.

And you have to come early.

Fine, I've heard you.

Good night, take care!

Thank you for today.

I really appreciate it.

Thank you for not saying no.

Why can't you say you're

welcome like a normal person?

[laughs]

Okay, you are welcome.

Now was that hard?

[chuckles softly]

Are we ready for tomorrow?

I know I'm ready. I can't say for others.

Ouch!

I thought we were a team?

I...

I have to go.

Thank you.

Again.

I got a message from

the loan company about you.

I meant it's when I said

you can always talk to me.

Again, thank you for today.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Do you still want to be a dancer?

Ma, you scared me.

That is life.

It scares everyone.

Do you still want to be a dancer?

Yes, I still do.

I still dreamt about it today.

It never ends well.

And what does it matter?

I just want to experience what

being a dancer feels like.

Even if it's just for one day,

I want to feel it.

I'm sure it will be exciting.

Fun.

Fulfilling.

- Hmm.

- Yeah.

Careful what you wish for.

Sometimes,

life gives us what we ask for,

just to teach us a lesson.

It is time.

I see you've made a new friend.

You're both very similar.

She is nothing like me.

Are you annoyed?

Don't be annoyed.

That is just my observation.

She's not like me ma.

Ah-ah.

Can't you see her?

She's living the life of my dreams.

She doesn't know what it's like to be me.

Hmm.

And you do not know what it

is like to be her

If I had a chance to live her

life, everything will change.

Life has a way of giving you what

you want just to teach you a lesson.

It is time.

Sometimes,

Life gives us what we ask for,

just to teach us a lesson.

[scream] What the hell!

Sorry.

Please!

Where am I?

What am I doing here?

What kind of silly

question are you asking?

Please you don't have to insult me.

Just tell me where I am.

[exclaims in disbelief.]

When did you start speaking English?

- Please!

- Don't shout at me!

Is something wrong with you?

You're asking me silly

questions in your own house.

[insult]

You better mind your business.

My house?

What the hell is going on?

What the f*ck is happening?

What is this?

Okay this has to be a dream.

This has to be a dream.

Just calm down.

Calm down, it's a dream.

It's not a dream, just calm down!

[phone ringing]

[screaming]

[phone ringing]

Who the heck still

uses this type of phone?

[gasp] What?

Oh my-

my presentation! Kevwe!

What is this phone!

[gasp]

Sorry. Your account is too low

for the destination

you're trying to call.

[screams]

Okay I need to leave the house.

Gross.

Gosh. This...

No.

Okay.

Sir.

Our clients are

obviously tired of waiting.

And I have my presentation right here,

and I'm ready to go.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry for the delay.

Uh...

Kindly give us a moment, please.

I promise you this presentation will

start at exactly 9am.

I apologize.

Williams.

Let me see you outside.

Excuse me.

Now.

Apologies for the delay.

Please I have my presentation here.

I'm ready to show it to you in a second.

Thank you, just give me a minute.

Just...

We are so sorry.

Can I get you coffee?

You know, water, biscuits?

We're very sorry.

What do you think you were

trying to do in there?

Sir...

Don't you ever.

Don't you ever pull

that crap with me again.

- Ever!

- Sir...

If you didn't have a soft spot for her,

I wouldn't have to pull that crap.

With all due respect.

Williams.

Let me make it clear to you.

You can never be Ema.

You hear that?

Never!

And you trying so hard, proves my point.

Hey, you!

Tell Ema that if she's

not here in the next five

minutes, she shouldn't

bother coming here anymore.

You get that?

- Yes, sir.

- Thank you.

[sighs]

[chuckles]

My goodness.

[sighs]

[exclaims]

[phone ringing]

Who is this?

Where are you?

Do you really want to get fired?

[indistinct]

Uh...

- Good morning sir.

- Good Morning.

Please how much is it to the island?

Lekki to be precise.

Lekki to be precise...

Okay. Pay 2,500.

Okay, alright that's fine.

But the only thing is, when we get there,

my friend will pay.

So I'll just go inside, call her out,

and then I'll give you the money okay?

Thank you so much sir. Th-

Shut my door!

You're delaying me this morning and

you don't have money for transport?

What kind of bad luck is this?

After I prayed hard

against people like you.

Sir?

Okay, I understand now.

You're the one they sent right?

No sir, I said once we get there,

I'll go inside and-not that I won't pay,

my friend will bring the money out.

[insult]

- Sir?

- [insults]

the money to you.

How do I-

Who can help?

Okay, let me just-

Ah-ah.

This girl is enjoying.

Ah-ah. This is incredible.

Everything is about money.

What is the matter?

Won't you let her enjoy her life?

Ah.

Aunty. Good morning.

- Good morning.

- What do you want to buy?

Uh...

Aunty, what do you

want to buy? I'm busy.

I actually don't want to buy anything.

I just want to ask

you for transport fare.

I just need to get to Lekki, and

on my way back from work,

I'll bring it back.

Please.

Ah-ah.

Aunty the ATM isn't far from here.

You can go to the bank.

Well, the thing is...

I don't have my ATM card with me.

Ah-ah?

There's also POS.

Yes. The POS place isn't far.

You can go and withdraw.

Uh... the thing is I...

How do I explain this?

Okay, uh...

This is not my real body.

I just need to go get my body

and my phone.

And I promise you, once I get it,

I'll transfer the money back to you.

In fact, I'll transfer double.

Please.

Ah-ah. [laughing]

[laughing]

Aunty, if you don't leave here now,

I'll call boys to come and deal with you.

- Please.

- You think I'm a fool?

Please ma, I'm telling the truth.

Honestly, I'm telling the truth.

[scream]

[groans]

Stupid day.

God, look at the time.

[gasp]

Okay, I need to go.

Bike. Okay.

Sir!

Where?

Uh... I'm going to Lekki.

It's three hundred naira.

Sir please, it's only two-

It's only two hundred naira I have.

Okay, I'll manage.

Thank you sir.

Wait, sorry sir.

Okay.

Okay let's go.

Let's-

Thank-

Ah-ah?

This is incredible.

What am I doing here?

[exclaims]

[phone ringing]

Uncle Efe called me this morning.

He said you told him to remind you

about the money he asked for.

Are you there?

Emamode?

Can you hear me?

- [knock]

- [sighs, exclaims]

Uh...

[knock]

[knock]

I-

Good morning madam.

Morning.

[Music].

I'm so sorry that I've not been

around for some days now.

It's just that my mother was sick.

But she's better now.

Okay.

Okay, okay.

The car is ready, ma.

Okay.

Okay ma.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

I'm leaving now.

I'm about to lock the door.

Thank you.

Please take me to the

cultural centre in Lekki.

Hey!

Look, get your hands off me!

Madam, please where are you going?

You need to get out of my way.

Why?

You need to get out of my way right now.

Madam, you're not going anywhere.

- [chuckles]

- Even, see how you look.

You're trying me.

You're really trying me.

And you're risking your job.

I need to-

You know what, just get out of my way.

Get out of your way? To where?

Kevwe!

- What is going on?

- Kevwe.

Can you please tell this stupid girl,

to get out of my way?

It's me Ema.

[laughs in disbelief] Can you imagine?

Do you think we don't know who Ema is?

Hey shut up!

Uh, hello?

How do you know my name?

Who are you?

And who would you like to see?

Kevwe,

please, it's me, Ema.

I just-I'll explain

it all to you later,

but I really need to get upstairs

and get my presentation done.

I think you're in the wrong-

Oh sh*t, I think you're

in the wrong place

you need to leave, my boss is coming.

I wouldn't want to embarrass you.

Please just... ex-

See, that's my boss coming.

Hello? You need to leave.

Okay.

- Hello, young lady.

- Hello?

You need to leave.

See me in my office. Now!

Yes sir.

And why the f*ck are you smiling?

Who is this untamed, uncultured low-life?

No doubt, one of your

relatives from Warri right?

And by the way, tell Ema that

I'm coming for her office.

It's mine.

- Hey!

- Hey chill!

Hello? What are you-

You know what, young

lady, please leave.

I can't do this.

I'll call the security on you.

Please leave. Stop calling my name.

- I don't even know you.

- Kevwe please.

- Kevwe please...

- Leave!

KV, it's me, Emamode.

Please.

Tobi!

It's me, Tobi.

It's me, Yinka.

Excuse me?

Tobi, it's me, Yinka.

This has to be a joke, right?

Like, what sort of joke is this?

Can we talk?

Talk about what?

I'm sorry, I don't know you.

And I'm actually late for my rehearsals.

Tobi wait...

Please, don't let me embarrass you here.

I don't know you.

Leave me alone!

You bought me provisions on Sunday.

You took me to go and eat even when

I had lied that I had already eaten.

Remember?

What the-

It's me.

It's Yinka.

Tobi.

Tobi.

So... whose body is this?

I don't know her.

But I see her at our shows.

What are we going to do

about our performance?

[sighs]

It's at 12.

[phone ringing]

Hello Miss Yinka.

This is to inform you that the

3,000 naira you borrowed from us

two months ago, has

now yielded 20% interest.

What the-

If you do not pay us,

we'll continue to send

messages to all your contacts.

Telling them that you are a criminal,

a fraudster, a liar.

And we will continue spreading

the news that you cannot be trusted.

Okay.

How did it go? Am I fired?

Please move. Move!

Am I fired?

Well, he says that if WE

are not here by 7.30 A.M. tomorrow,

WE will be fired.

- [sigh]

- [sigh]

What am I going to do?

This smell is really coming from you.

- What?

- Did you take a bath?

Ah-ah?

What kind of nonsense is this?

Hm.

Did you brush your teeth? Please take.

Let me breathe good air.

Do you know the owner of this body?

No.

[scoffs]

Well... well, yes.

No, yes, which one?

Kind of.

Yes, kind of which one?

She's a dancer.

She, she's a what?

Wait.

You actually get to

get all that you really wanted.

How?

I wanted to become a dancer,

not to be stuck with

some broke girls body

who can't even afford to buy air time.

But what did you even expect?

You're the body of a dancer,

you're experiencing

everything that it is, to be this dancer.

Why did you even come here today?

Why didn't you just go

and meet your fellow dancers?

So that you'll know

that you're fulfilling

your purpose and your

destiny on earth.

Because whatever this is,

I don't want to know by tomorrow.

7.30 AM, you must have

swapped bodies.

I'm not going to get fired because of you.

What?

Well, you have your calling now,

your dream, reality, dancing.

See, I don't want Mr Fred to start

wondering what a

stranger is doing here.

So maybe you'll just... just go outside.

Do you work here?

Do I even know who you are?

Go outside!

Go!

Take this!

Help me check.

Wait! Wait!

Go!

Quickly.

Hm!

This is incredible.

Listen, everyone.

You have exactly one hour

to rehearse and get this right.

This also means that Tobi you and Yinka

must be ready in that time.

The investors should be

here by exactly 2 P.M.

We must be ready to

give them a show,

to make them drop this money

without thinking twice.

Are we clear?

Now let's get to work.

Tobi.

- Sir?

- Please come.

Where's Yinka?

Should I repeat myself?

I said where is Yinka?

Mr. Bayo...

the problem is...

Yinka is here, but she's not here.

Yinka is here but...

What's that supposed to mean?

Who's this?

- Sir it's-

- This-

This is Stella.

Stella and I will be doing

the personal presentation together.

Tobi.

Are you alright?

Are you normal?

My friend, get me Yinka now.

And fast! Have you heard me?

[groans] Problem.

[groans]

What?

Tobi!

Bayo has decided we

do the duet together.

What?

Who are you?

Bayo wants to see us now.

I've heard you.

I've heard you go.

I'm sorry.

I have to go. I'm sorry.

[phone beeps]

- Why are you sleeping like this?

- Jesus.

Why are you like this?

Aren't you bothered?

[groans] See,

all I know is that this body is tired.

I don't know if this

girl is a bricklayer

or what she does, but ah-ah?

So you mean as your spirit is inside,

you can't just fight the body?

My spirit is willing, but this flesh?

[groans]

Is weak.

Look, this doesn't concern me.

Babe you need to find a way to

swap your bodies back, please.

I can't lose my job because of you.

Is that all you care about?

Your job.

What about me?

I don't understand.

How does it concern me?

If you had just decided

to focus on your job.

All of this will not be happening.

But no.

You refuse to.

Tell me.

When you've been

having your weird dreams,

One day you didn't just say, "Ah!

Baba God!

Let me just be a dancer for one day."

We cannot say that this is as a

result of my dreams, so leave it.

So how else do you

think this is happening?

[phone beeps]

Ah-ah?

What kind of life is this?

[scoffs] Her life is all about money

You didn't get the loan,

they're fighting you at work,

and you've been sacked.

This isn't life.

Tsk tsk tskBecause spiritual att*ck

won't att*ck you this much.

- What?

- Isn't this what you want?

If this is what it means, please...

I'm not interested.

[chuckles, sucks teeth]

So...

What's up? How did it go?

Really I don't know.

They are speaking

right now as we are here.

So I don't know.

I thought it was a done deal?

Alright, thank you so much.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I thought it was a done deal?

I thought so too.

So there's no show for tonight?

No show.

What? Who are you?

Uh...

Never mind.

What's the plan?

- What is the plan?

- I'm thinking.

Have you tried calling your phone?

My phone is locked.

That's why I couldn't call you now.

[scoffs]

Call her.

With what?

This excuse for your phone.

There's no credit in it.

I don't even know how

someone would be going

around with such

rubbish and call it a phone.

You know what?

Lemme just call your number with my phone.

Are you calling my phone?

No, I'm calling my phone.

[phone ringing]

Why aren't you picking the call?

This person has been

calling all morning.

Do you know if she's a debtor?

But you won't know who's calling

if you don't pick.

Oh, Tobi...

Hello?

Uh, Hello?

Hello. Uh...

Can I speak to the person that

is with this phone?

It's not you, right?

Because you're a man...

It cannot possibly be you.

Right?

Hello?

Hello. Uh...

I'm guessing you're the

one in my body?

Right?

And you're in mine.

[phone beeps]

Calm down. It's not even good news.

What's that supposed to mean?

Read it yourself.

I know you.

And I see you.

You'll sit in your car and act

like you're running the world.

And now that you've had a

taste of my life,

how do you feel?

- [scoffs]

- Accomplished?

Do you feel like you own the world?

Oh please!

I don't like your life.

Don't flatter yourself.

That's very rich coming

from someone who has

been owing 3,000

for the past two months.

Look around you.

You're in my body.

And change the stupid thing.

Hey don't break it.

Guys, guys, guys.

What's wrong with both of you?

We didn't come here to fight.

We came here for a solution.

Exactly. Everything she said.

Except, [laughs] they're not guys.

They're actual babes.

Please who is this?

Bro, do you want me to face you?

Don't be annoyed.

[sucks teeth]

Can any of you remember

anything that must have happened

in the past 48 hours that

might seem out of your ordinary?

I don't remember anything.

Me too.

Life sometimes gives us what we want

to teach us the lesson.

- The old woman!

- The old woman!

[exclaims]

So that woman would

be somewhere,

laughing at us.

But why would she even

do something like this?

And how?

Why are you people

shocked? I'm confused.

Look, it's not even fair

at the end of the day.

Because I didn't get to live her life.

I didn't get to dance.

Aren't you in her body?

Didn't you sleep in her bed?

Didn't you wake up in her house?

Didn't you wear her clothes?

Aren't you doing what she does?

Well I woke up in a bed I like.

But you see her life,

and her money issues,

even at work.

They want to k*ll her.

I don't envy your life.

The peace of mind I

have in my little house.

I like it.

Besides, I enjoy being a dancer.

See guys, please,

Maybe... drop this phone and focus.

Ah-ah?

Maybe you'll come together and

hold hands, and exchange bodies.

Because we have a

presentation tomorrow.

7:30 A.M.

I'm a dancer.

Ema, we have a presentation tomorrow.

In Ema's body.

Please.

[scoffs]

Ah-ah.

Ah!

[laughs]

[sighs]

I really wish I had your bed.

And some of your clothes.

[laughs]

They're some of the things I enjoyed,

as you.

[laughs]

That's it.

Do you want to talk about it?

No.

I mean, it's just uh...

struggles of being a dancer.

Today...

Today should have been worth it...

Well, now you know better.

Yeah.

Your mom called you.

She called since morning.

I... I'll call her.

Take.

It's money I found in your bags,

I thought I needed it,

then I saw you have a driver.

[laughs]

And it's your money. You need it more.

Because, you know...

Thank you.

- Alright. Good night.

- Good night.

Bye.

Alright.

[sighs]

[yawns]

God.

Am I back?

Am I back?

[screaming excitedly] I'm back!

I'm back!

[laughs] Where's my phone?

[chuckles]

Oh not again.

[knocking]

[knocking]

Who's that?

[excited scream]

[knocking]

Who's that? Don't spoil my door.

[excited scream]

[laughing]

Hold on...

[laugh] I see you're back.

Yeah I'm back!

Can't wait to dance on stage and show off.

What's wrong?

[sighs] Mehn...

What is it? What are you saying?

It's Mr. Bayo.

Mr. Bayo doesn't want you to come back.

I knew this was going to happening.

Well, I'm sorry.

Did I say you can sit?

[exhales]

I don't know what to do now.

What do I do?

See,

You're a great dancer.

You can dance somewhere else.

Find another what?

You're the last person

that should tell me this.

You know how hard I worked to get here.

And you're telling me I'll find

another place. Is it so easy?

Don't tell me that rubbish.

[sucks teeth] I'll call him.

Are you sure that's a good idea?

Calm down.

You're just standing there and

asking me if it's a good idea.

Okay, give me options.

You're the smart one.

Tell me what to do.

[sucks teeth]

[screams]

Uh, Yinka.

See. You know what?

- [grunts]

- Calm down.

Get dressed and come with me.

Looks like you've lost your mind.

Leave me please. Get dressed for what?

Why should I do that?

- Yinka...

- Don't annoy me.

Hey, Yinka.

Get dressed, and come with me.

Right now.

Let's go.

I'm serious.

Don't waste time. Let's go.

Mr. Fred, I'm very sorry sir.

I just want to apologize for

everything that happened.

I'm really sorry sir.

You cost us.

Uh... sir.

How exactly did she cost us?

I did my presentation and might I say

the client seemed to like it.

The client liked it?

Yes.

Your presentation was shitty.

In their words:

"His ideas does not

align with our products."

As a matter of fact, if I was going to

fire anyone right now,

it would be you.

You disappoint me.

And... she did not.

[phone ringing]

What?

Okay.

Williams, it will be

in your best interest

not to speak again.

[chuckles]

See Kevwe, we can set up our own firm.

I mean, look at Mr. Fred.

Sorry, scratch that,

How old was Fred when

he set up his own firm?

That guy is barely one or

two years older than us.

I think this is definitely a

good time for us to set up our firm.

Are you listening

to yourself right now?

Honestly.

I just got fired because I'm your friend.

Not because I messed up

or that I cost the company anything.

And definitely not because

I suck at what I do.

I lost my job simply

because I'm Ema's friend.

And this is all you have to say,

Not even an apology.

- Okay.

- [indistinct]

Did I have those

stupid dreams with you?

Then you're standing here, and telling me

we should start our own firm.

Ema.

How selfish can you possibly be?

Didn't you learn anything?

From, all that you've experienced.

Come.

It's just right here.

You'll love it. I promise you.

Come.

(music).

Tobi, what are we doing here?

[chuckles] Yinka.

Just come.

Tobi!

Oh, Yinka. Relax.

I work here.

I help my employers here take care of

their properties when

they're not around.

Especially when

they're not in the country.

See, I know how much you love to dance.

And I know how Mr. Bayo's

news is affecting you.

I just want us to do

what you love to do,

without worrying about

anything or anyone.

Just the two of us.

Expressing ourselves.

Doing what we love to do.

Okay?

Alright, come.

Stop worrying, come.

See? It's beautiful.

Give me a second.

I'll join you right now.

[phone ringing]

I've lost my job

with the dance group.

Makes both of us.

At the end of the day,

we can't have it all.

I messed up,

I messed up real bad.

Even got Kevwe fired.

What?

Yeah.

I don't know what to do

or where to go from here.

[clicks tongue]

Nothing.

Don't worry about Kevwe.

She'll be fine.

But about the job,

It's gone.

Life really f*cked us up.

[sigh]

[phone ringing]

Mummy dewo.

Yeah, I'll send it.

Okay, ma.

[sigh]

[phone ringing]

Hello, sir?

She's coming.

[indistinct]

[indistinct]

Hey K, what's up?

What is it?

Why am I here?

Ah-ah, Kevwe, calm down.

We know you're still

angry, but calm down.

Okay?

She'll talk.

She'll soon talk.

Right, talk.

First of all,

I'll like to

apologize to you, Kevwe.

[scoffs]

I was selfish,

And it cost us.

It cost you when it shouldn't have.

Kevwe, you've always had my back.

And the one time you

really needed me...

I'm was her.

[sighs]

The second reason why I

called everyone here today is

to let you know that

Mr. Fred called me

And he gave me my job back.

- Cool.

- Ah-ah?

Hey, wait!

Mr. Fred called you.

Why hasn't he called me?

Why haven't I gotten my job back?

Well, he said the client said they wanted

to see my presentation.

So, if I do things right,

we might just not get our jobs back.

We might even get a promotion.

[fake chuckle]

So once again, my

destiny is tied to you.

So if you chose to mess up,

that means I'm done for?

No I won't mess up.

I promise you Kevwe,

I won't mess things up this time.

[sighs]

So that takes me to you guys.

So I kind of saw an opportunity where I

could be offering

you guys a job as well.

Thing is, I'd prepared my presentation

before I met you guys.

Well, I think I have a better idea.

Uh, okay... but in case you forgot,

we're dancers.

How can I forget?

I didn't forget.

So, we're trying to sell

this product to the masses.

You guys know that people

are raving and going crazy about

new dance steps and new dance styles?

So I thought, what if we incorporate all

of that into the promotional campaign.

That makes sense.

It makes sense.

[excitement]

Okay. So the idea is uh...

First we create a dance challenge

on social media,

get people to dance and

promote the product with a hashtag.

We can also get them

to headline your show.

It's a win-win situation.

And then, we can also get the brand

to give the persons or groups with the

highest likes and comments products.

Maybe some financial remuneration.

Exactly.

This is a really good idea.

Yeah, let's do it.

But I need Mr. Bayo to be

there at the presentation.

I mean, so he can talk about your show.

Uh...

And the presentation is 9

A.M tomorrow morning.

Huh? Will you be there,

At 9 A.M?

Mr. Bayo.

Tobi, what are you doing here?

Hm?

I thought you left

with your girlfriend?

Mr. Bayo, Yinka is not my girlfriend.

At least, not yet.

Okay, I've heard. Sorry.

But why are you here then?

What is she doing here?

- Ehn? What are you doing here?

- Mr. Bayo

Calm down. Just hear her out first.

Please, just listen.

Mr. Bayo, please don't be angry.

I'm sorry I messed up your plans.

Please just give me one last chance.

Are you alright Yinka?

One more chance for what?

To do what?

Do you want to dance to an empty space?

Or you somehow have magically

brought us new clients?

Speak!

Are you playing with me?

[chuckles]

[exhales]

Oh! You're here!

- Yeah.

- You're early!

- Kevwe, I'm really sorry.

- Look, don't.

Whatever happens today,

I'm just glad we get to do it together.

Thank you.

- But are you ready?

- Yes.

- I'm ready.

- And Mr. Bayo?

Well, he's not here yet.

- But he's coming?

- Yes.

He is. I already spoke with him.

He's on his way.

- Fantastic.

- [chuckles]

8:30, you're early!

I am some days.

You're not. You're never like this.

- Emma.

- Sir?

What else are we waiting for?

You're already here, so start.

[stuttering]

Don't mess this up for the second time.

Yes sir, I won't.

Ema.

Williams.

Sir, we can start the presentation.

I'm sorry.

- So Ema.

- Sir?

How's your mom?

[indistinct]

Mr. Fred sir,

please can you stop playing with us?

And just tell us our fate?

Yes sir.

Well, he wasn't really impressed

with your original idea.

[muttering]

Yeah, and even with this presentation,

He was more...

More what sir?

- More what?

- More what?

He was even more impressed.

And he has agreed to

double the initial amount

and work with us for 5 more years.

[excitement]

Congratulations Ema.

Thank you sir, thank you.

You did really well.

- Thank you very much.

- So proud.

Thank you sir.

Okay, so as agreed,

your promotion letter

will be with you next week.

Okay. Thank you sir.

[clears throat] Uh...

Keep her.

This one.

She's a great friend.

I know.

And effective immediately, Kevwe,

you'll be working with Ema on the project.

And every other project,

project she gets to work on.

- Thank you sir!

- Okay.

Sir effective immediately, my salary...

- Increase.

- Increase.

- Get out of my office.

- [laughter]

No, take it again from the top please.

You...

concentrate.

Yinka,

what's wrong with you?

Why are you always late?

Eh?

And do not tell me that

you didn't have transport fare,

or you broke your leg along the way.

[indistinct]

Thank you for trusting and

giving me another chance.

It's okay Yinka.

You thank you for bringing

us all back together.

Uh...

All the money I owe you.

Plus interest.

Thank you.

Ehen? What are you waiting for?

Do I have to tell you to go and change?

I'm sorry.

[cheering, clapping]

[cheering, clapping]

[cheering, clapping]

[indistinct]

Wow, you came.

Ah-ah?

So you want to join our team?

[laugh] It's good for you.

At least, you'll learn a thing

or two about life from Ema.

Kevwe...

Don't mind her please.

I uh...

I actually wouldn't mind

being part of the team.

Wow.

Welcome to my team.

You'll need me after all.

You'll never change.
