03x02 - Martin Returns

[bunniefuu]

Hello, gina? What's happening, babe?

Yeah, this is marty-mar.

I know you know the voice,

But, um, I've been thinking about what you said,

And you had some valid points.

You know, uh, uh...

Uh, yeah, well, um, I love you, too, baby.

Um, I want to come home.

A couple of people might be chasing me from the cult.

Yeah, nashi ramba. Yeah.

But, uh, I'm going to try to get home

As fast as I can.

I don't have no ride. I don't want you here.

They're after y'all for taking their robes.

Yeah. Look, I love you,

And I'll try catching a ride.

But, baby, marty-mar coming home.

I ain't running no more.

Marty-mar coming home.

Love you. I love you.

How y'all feel?

♪ Lawrence ♪♪

We're going in three minutes,

Cole, they was wrong, man.

You can go home again.

I'm home. Ain't nothing changed.

Yeah, that's cool. Look, man,

Why don't you go inside and handle your business with gina.

I got to roll. I left big shirley in the pacer,

And I forgot to crack a window.

Go take care of that. That's ill*gal.

O.k., Man.

Thanks, cole. Thanks.

Whoo!

Gina, your new man's about to, uh,

Walk through the door, girl.

Ahh!

Here comes the love, baby.

Here comes the love.

Gina!

Martin!

Yeah! Ohh!

Oh, baby.

Whoa!

Oh, martin.

Wait, it is martin, right, or is it sunflower?

It's your marty-mar with sunflower's heart.

The melons-- I missed the melons.

Give me the melons.

Oh, baby,

It is my marty-mar. I was so worried.

I didn't know if you were really coming.

I was about to make another trip to that temple.

That would've been ugly.

You was going to hurt somebody.

I was going to hurt somebody.

Martin, listen to me.

From now on, we don't leave. We talk about things.

We communicate. We're here.

Ooh, we are here.

Gina, I'm a new martin, baby.

Gina, I learned so much at the temple.

Ain't nothing like knowledge.

I'm a changed man.

Baby, the minute you walked in the temple,

I saw the light.

I, uh,

I want to grow old with you.

I want to have your kids.

Ha ha ha ha.

Waaaa! Waaaa!

You got it, sweetie.

Ooh!

Mmm, girl, i--i just want to look at you.

Look at me?

Look at you.

I'm looking at your face, girl,

And I'm looking around this apartment.

And, girl...

This ain't my stuff, gina.

This--this ain't my stuff.

Where's my stuff, gina?

Martin, we said we'd move in together.

I boxed that stuff up. I fixed up the place.

I thought I'd surprise you. Surprise!

Oh, I'm surprised, gina, damn well surprised.

See, with neutral colors, you can do so much more.

Neutral colors?

Oh, you like neutral colors.

Yeah. It gives the room a warmer feel.

Warmer feel?

Did you have to paint?

Couldn't you just turn up the heat?

Oh! Move--move your head.

What--where's my do the right thingposter?

My poster reminds people what they got to do.

It didn't go with my color scheme.

It didn't go with your color scheme?

Wait. Oh, wait.

Nashi ramba.

I'm yelling, huh?

Yes, you are.

Excuse me.

Don't worry. This is a good lesson for me.

Martin, go to your higher self.

Ooh!

The dog that jumps in the water

Loses the bone

That's in its mouth.

Ooooohhh!

Oh. Ha ha.

Does that mean you're all right now?

Yes, I am all right. I am cool.

I don't know what I'm getting worked up about,

'Cause it's all good.

It's all good?

That's right. Every now and then it happens.

I mean, baby, when we got engaged,

We did say, uh... We'd move in together.

Yes, we did.

That's why I rented my apartment to pam.

To who?

You rented your apartment to who, gina?

Pam. You got a problem with that?

Yes, I got a big problem.

Wait.

Wait.

I'm doing it again, ain't i?

Hold on. Hold on.

Why are you doing that?

Learn and grow.

You're not listening.

Bring yourself down.

Bring it down.

Ooooohhh!

I'm sorry, gina.

Sometimes the old martin just slips right out.

Get rid of him.

Get of here, martin. Get out of here!

Ooooohhh!

What I should be saying is,

Thank you, baby boo,

For holding down the fort

While your man was away.

I like that. You're welcome.

You're very, very welcome.

Thank you. Hugs and kisses.

Hugs and kisses.

Ow.

Gina...

Where--where's my bowl of marbles?

Your...marbles?

[High-pitched voice] I don't know.

I'm so glad that's our last trip up those stairs.

My arm is tired.

Pam, I just have one question.

How did you get all of these boxes packed so fast?

I've been packed for the past three weeks.

When gina called me last night saying martin was coming back,

I just had to put the tape on the box.

Oh--oh, no.

This is cute. Look at your baby picture.

It's adorable.

Oh, let me see.

You were a cute baby.

That was my pony.

My bad.

What's this?

Just a bunch of old programs.

"The albany league dance company."

I love the theater.

Yes. Really, tommy?

I always wanted to be a dancer.

I bet you'd have been a great one, too.

Um...

What else do you have in here?

Oh, no way?

What?

No. Space crusaders?

Yeah, so?

I love to play space crusaders in my spare time.

Yes. For real?

Me, too.

I don't believe that.

This is funny.

It is. I didn't know

We liked so many of the same things.

I never knew we had so much in common.

Me, either.

Pam?

Yes, tommy?

What are we waiting for?

Let's do it.

I had marbles. Where the rest of them?

I can't believe you count your marbles.

Well, believe it, gina.

I had a little clove one,

A glow in the dark one. Where are my marbles?

You just got home.

Why do we have to argue right away?

How much time do you need? Minutes?

'Cause my marbles are missing now.

They're missing, all right. You gone.

Your minutes is up.

Where's my fish?

Where's my poor little fish?

Where's the fish, gina?

You never had a fish.

Right. Right. You can have the fish.

But where's my richard pryor albums?

The man was bad! He's bad!

Where's my richard pryor albums?

All right, I'm sorry!

I'm sorry about the apartment.

I was worried sick about you.

I was lonely. I needed something to do.

It all just happened.

What do you mean it all just happened?

Did it just happen like the grand canyon?

Was it an act of nature? How'd it just happen?

All right, I'll tell you how it happened.

All right.

All right!

I mean--

Martin!

All right, look...

I missed you, so I started painting

To get it off my mind.

But the more I painted, the madder I got.

So I started fixing and painting, thinking...

"I miss martin."

Then I thought about it some more,

And I threw your stuff in a box.

So, then,

I was thinking again, "I miss my baby,"

And I threw some more stuff in the box,

And some more--

Martin, you just left me!

I had to go, gina.

I was trying to find myself

So you wouldn't be marrying a stranger.

Ohh!

Oh, congratulations.

Oh, I'm so happy.

I'm happy you found yourself, martin.

You can take care of yourself, 'cause I'm out of here.

You going to act like that?

Whatever happened to we talking,

Communication, us being here?

Is that it?

When it gets tough, you just going to walk away?

Whatever happened to talk about it, huh?

That's what you do. You don't run out.

You talk.

You talk. Bring it in.

That's right, bring it back,

Bring it back, bring it back, bring it in.

Now, let's talk about this.

Where's my marbles?

[Tommy] you got me, baby!

[Pam] ohh!

Ohh!

Ohh!

Ohh!

Ooh!

It's too sobering having my own place.

Don't try to change the subject. You're losing.

I'm serious. I can do what I want when I want.

Don't try changing the subject. Pay attention.

I could even walk around butt naked if I want to.

My damn!

I won! I won!

Thank you.

Thank you.

Pay up.

All right, all right.

You're pretty good.

You had to take me there, that's why.

Listen, pam,

The boys' choir of harlem--

They'll be in town next weekend.

Want to check them out?

You're not asking me on a date, are you?

Uh, no. No, nothing like that.

Good.

'Cause I don't date friends.

It never works out.

I know.

It--it spoils the friendship.

So what do you say?

Maybe.

I might want to check it out with you.

That's good.

What's up, y'all?

Gina...

Whew!

What are you doing here with all your stuff?

Me and martin had an argument.

Martin's back.

Let me go check out my boy.

Pam, see you later.

Thanks a lot, tommy.

I appreciate it.

So, uh, rama da...

What you going to do now?

I was on the highway

Before I realized I'd nowhere else to go.

Doesn't sharonda have a sofa bed?

You're my best friend.

That's just it, gina.

I don't want to ruin that, o.k.?

You need money for a cab?

It's only for a few days until I find a place.

You won't know I'm here.

Come on! I don't know about this.

What if I meet mr. Right

And want to bring him home?

Mr. Right, you know?

You and mr. Right?

Mr. Right!

You and gina broke up,

Y'all got back together,

Then y'all broke up again,

Only to get back together and break up again.

Me and big shirley-- we still together, right?

Cole, cole, cole, cole.

It's not about you, o.k.?

This is about martin and gina.

Hey, ease up off him.

Cole...

Me and gina are together,

And we're apart,

Just like the sun and the moon,

The yin and the yang,

Peaches and herb.

That's heavy, man.

Oh, very heavy, very heavy.

You see, cole,

As the day passes,

So shall the earth turn.

Nashi ramba.

Ramba nashi.

O.k., O.k.

All right, all right.

Y'all beat your brains up off the nashi ramba's, o.k.?

'Cause correct me if I'm wrong,

But aren't you and gina

Supposed to be moving in together real soon?

Tommy, I can't choose gina's path.

If gina chooses to leave,

So shall it be.

As the river flows,

So goes the sallmon.

That's salmon, martin, and it swims up the stream.

That salmon's a trip.

Martin's been throwing down salmon croquettes.

Cole, shut up.

Martin is in trouble.

Martin, you in trouble.

He ain't got no salmon!

No salmon, no gina, no job, nothing!

Even the damn hair turned on him.

Why are you getting so emotional, tommy?

Gina's path is hers.

Remember...

The man who sleeps on the floor

Can'tfall out of bed.

What the hell does that mean?

Martin, o.k.,

Pay attention.

Pay attention. Listen closely.

You dropping that temple size ain't cutting it.

Gina gone, o.k.?

She gone!

She's at pam's, martin. Pam's!

You got to do something.

I'm--i'm getting myself right,

And I'm seeing the light.

Heavy.

Heavy.

No, look, I'm sorry,

But this don't make no damn sense, o.k.?

You talk about some salmon croquettes.

You seeing the light and sleeping on the floor.

Now, both y'all crazy.

Y'all need to be on the ricki lake show.

[Announcer] today onricki lake,

"Men who join cults and their stupid friends."

Gina, I just got to say three things.

Number one-- I hate martin.

I always have, I always will.

That will never change.

Number two-- you guys belong together.

You love each other, girl.

You're right.

So go back.

Go back, girl.

Follow your heart.

I did change his apartment and pack his stuff away.

Maybe I did go too far.

I was only trying to help.

Girl, I know that,

And you know that.

Now, all you have to do is tell him that.

Your place is with him, not with me.

You're right. I love him.

He needs you, girl. That's all I'm saying.

You had three things to say. What was the third?

Oh, number three was, uh,

Thank you for subletting the apartment to me.

But it's my place now, and I live here alone.

So, bye-bye.

[Knock on door]

Whew.

Hey. Hey.

Hi.

What's happening?

Nothing.

Uh...

Look here, gina...

About the marbles.

Damn the marbles!

Girl, I don't care about no marbles.

I don't care about the marbles, baby.

I don't even care about the apartment.

We may work on the colors, o.k.?

Gina, all I care about is you, baby.

Look, martin, I was thinking--

I know, I know. Sit on down here.

I been thinking, too.

I know you want to work it out.

Well, guess what, baby.

I want to work it out, too. I'm ready!

I'm not sure if I am.

Excuse me?

Look, martin, if we're going to get married,

We need to be committed to one another.

We can't just run away after every problem.

Gina, you're right, baby. You are right.

The only reason I left

Is because I had to clear my head.

I felt the temple was a friend.

That's just it.

Martin, I'm supposed to be your best friend.

If you don't know that, where does that leave us?

Hey, look, I just need some time

To get away for myself, o.k.?

I need time to think things through.

I kind of expected this, gina.

Hey, do what you got to do, baby. I understand.

Martin, this is not about a breakup.

Let's just make sure

That this is what we both want.

Forever's a long time, baby.

Yeah. Yeah.

I'm going to stay at pam's.

All right. Hey, gina?

You know I'll be here.

'Cause where am I going to go?

I'm lucky enough to get my place back,

I'll be right here,

Even if it takes forever.

[Knock on door]

What's happening, baby?

Hi, martin.

How you doing?

Nice haircut.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you. You like it?

Mm-hmm.

Look, I brought you some popcorn to munch on.

See, I was going past the video store

And I thought I'd pick up your favorite video--

Purple rain.

Purple rainis not my favorite video, martin.

The color purpleis.

Oh.

Oh, o.k. At least I got the color right.

Also, I knew with that popcorn

You might want to get under the blanket,

So I brought your favorite blanket. Your cover.

I could help you eat that popcorn

If you twisted my arm.

If you wanted me to come in

And get under the covers.

Get in here, boy.

What took you so long, girl?

Get up under there, girl.

Get out of this jacket.

I like this.

This is nice.

Just like courting again.

Just like courting again, with my baby, huh?

I don't really want it on my breath.

Move. Move.

Move.

Ooh! Purple rain.

This is my favorite video.

How y'all know?

You didn't bring no soda?
