(lively music)
I can't seem to find no love
I can't seem to find no love
(gentle upbeat music)
- Too much.
Too boring.
Too Church picnicy.
(gentle upbeat music)
(dial tone rings)
(phone rings)
I know, I'm-
- He's waiting on you.
Where are you?
- I'm about to leave the house now.
- Gabby, he's been waiting
on you for 20 minutes.
- Okay, I know, I know.
It's just that the dress
that I was going to wear
is dirty, so.
(gentle upbeat music)
Sorry.
- No, you good.
It's okay, don't say sorry.
It's fine.
So I hope I'm not being too forward,
but you look so beautiful.
- Thank you.
(Marcus chuckles)
- It's all right.
So beautiful, in fact, I
forgot to introduce myself.
Look, I'm Marcus.
- Gabriella, but my friends,
they all call me Gabby.
- Why are you stressing?
Marcus is a good one.
- My version of good,
your version of good,
two completely different things.
No tea, no shade.
- Look, I got a man.
- You have several.
- And you have none.
Now I'm trying to be a friend.
Tired of seeing you at
home alone, on live,
quoting scriptures and
only talking to two people.
It's getting depressing.
And make sure you put some makeup on.
- Hazel, I am not wearing
all of that makeup.
- Girl, put some eyeshadow
and foundation on.
Ain't nobody playing with you.
- Fine. Bye.
- You.
(phone beeps)
(phone bangs)
- You know, you seem different.
- I don't know how to take that.
- Relax.
Different as in grounded.
(gentle upbeat music)
No, no, it's fine. It's refreshing.
You know most of these women out here,
they just don't know what they
want in their life and you,
you may know what you want.
I feel like it.
- Well, I just stay true
to myself and my values.
- Your values?
- Yes, my values.
(phone dings)
(Gabby scoffs)
Fun, huh?
Lord, please give me the discernment
and strength tonight to honor you
and let this one be different.
- So what do you do for fun?
- I don't get out too
much anymore, you know?
I just work.
- So what do you do for work?
- So I work at my church.
It's a daycare center there.
I just love it so much.
The kids, I love the kids.
It's really about making
a difference, you know?
- Okay, so, you know, you seem like
you don't break the rules as much.
- Oh, it depends on the type of rules.
(Marcus scoffs)
- You know, I wasn't
expecting that from you.
So I'll tell you what, let's do a toast,
to breaking rules.
- Cheers.
(glasses clink)
(gentle upbeat music)
(cars rumble)
- You know, I really enjoy
myself tonight with you.
I enjoy your smile.
Look, if I really need
to be honest with you,
I cannot have this night end tonight.
(gentle upbeat music)
- I know, right?
It just seems like one of those nights
where the wind just
hits you the right way,
then there's music off
in a distance somewhere.
Just magical.
- Yeah.
Come back to my place
just so this magical night don't end.
We can get dessert or something,
watch reality TV.
Worry about it, come on.
- I think I'm just gonna turn in.
You know, I have work early
in the morning anyway, so.
- Look, that's okay.
How about lunch tomorrow?
I'll pick you up from the daycare.
- Now that sounds amazing.
- You're very special, you know that?
All right, Miss Gabby, sounds great.
I'll see you next time, all right?
- Oh, okay.
It was great meeting you too.
- You too.
- Can't wait for tomorrow.
(gentle music)
(car door bangs)
(car engine rumbles)
(car horn hoots)
(car rumbles)
(text beeps)
(gentle music)
(text beeps)
(gentle music)
I texted him all last night
and this morning, nothing.
He said we were going
to lunch this morning.
Obviously we are not.
- Okay, what did you expect?
The man asked if you wanted
to come over last night
and you reject him.
- I mean yeah,
what, do I look stupid?
It was past 11:00 PM.
Even put myself in that
situation if I know-
- Girl, you need to live a little.
I understand that you want
to give Miss Thing down there
a break because you went
so hard on her in your 20s.
- Okay, this is about my relationship
with Christ in doing
what is required of me
as a woman of God.
You are supposed to follow in the Spirit
and not gratify the desires of the flesh.
- Look, you need some d*ck, okay?
I'm just gonna say it.
You out here living in this fantasy world
with this whole re-virginized
until marriage thing.
Girl, you're making yourself miserable.
- Uh-uh, I am not miserable.
1 Thessalonian says it,
"For it's His will,
his sanctification."
- That's right.
Gabby, ain't nobody caring about that.
(gentle upbeat music)
- You can't follow by that then,
are you really here for me?
I worked too hard to get here
and I am not throwing my faith away.
- Okay, I didn't say throw it away,
I didn't say that.
I'm just saying you
need to balance it out.
- Gabby, your mother
would be so proud of you
staying around and
keeping the church going.
- Hey, I appreciate you for hiring me
to help out, Ms. Shannon.
- You got yourself married yet?
- No ma'am, not yet.
- A fine Godly woman like you?
- I mean, I've been trying.
- I tell you what, I've
got somebody for you.
My nephew, Kash.
- Oh Ms. Shannon, I just
came off of a rough date.
I think I'm really just
gonna chill for a while.
- Well how you gonna chill and find a man?
You can't chill and find a man.
- Well, I know God is gonna just drop him
right off in my lap.
- Faith without work is dead, honey.
I'm gonna call him.
- No, Ms. Shannon, you
really don't have to-
- I'm gonna call him.
- [Gabby] Okay, call him Ms. Shannon.
- I'm calling him.
(gentle music)
I got all the hoes on me
oh
- Trying to get something to eat?
- What?
- Is you hungry?
- Huh? I can't hear you.
- Oh my bad.
You trying to get something to eat?
- Sure, eyes on the road.
It's whatever you wanna do.
(upbeat music)
- I just wanna be with you.
(upbeat music)
Kash.
- Yeah?
- Eyes on the road, but how old are you?
- 25.
I'm about to be 26, you feel me?
Yeah.
I'm 34.
- Damn, I mean,
what's up, auntie?
(Gabby chuckles)
You ain't like the sun toy
You tower
- And so he called me auntie.
- 'Cause you old.
- Okay, 34 is hardly old.
- To a 20 something year old, it is.
- Girl, you was almost 40.
- Girl, I'm 37.
- 40.
- Look, this ain't about
me, this is about you.
(door knocks)
(gentle upbeat music)
Lemme call you back, my meal is here.
- Let me guess, DoorDash again.
- No, Larry.
(Hazel chuckles)
Bye, girl.
(gentle upbeat music)
- My, does obedience feels so lonely.
Am I holding out for something
that just doesn't exist?
I do trust God, but it's hard.
(gentle music)
Do you guys think I'm overthinking it?
Is anybody on?
I see a few of y'all watching, hey.
I was gonna do a Bible lesson tonight,
but if I'm being honest,
I'm not at best mood right now.
So maybe tomorrow.
Yeah, maybe.
(phone dings)
(gentle music)
(phone rings)
- Hello?
- Hey.
- I'm sorry, do I know you?
- Not yet.
I was watching your live.
- Oh yeah, of course.
- Where you from?
(gentle music)
- Well, originally I'm from Mississippi,
was raised in Atlanta,
got a job in California
and now I'm back here.
- So you a traveler, huh?
I like to travel too.
So what about dinner?
- Dinner?
- Yeah.
- Just like that?
- Well, I saw your live
and I kind of feel the same way you do.
I find myself up at night
asking the same questions,
wondering what I'm doing out here.
I'd love to make dinner for you.
I mean, not tonight, it's late,
but maybe tomorrow, whenever you free.
I make a great pasta.
I'd love to hear more about
your spiritual journey.
- Yeah, I don't know.
- It is just dinner.
Grateful, good conversation, that's it.
- You're a complete stranger.
What, you expect me to
just come over there,
explain about my non-existent
love life to you and eat?
- Yeah, that's what adults do.
- But you're a stranger.
- I'm Dominique, I'm a software engineer.
(gentle music)
- Gabby.
I work at a daycare at church.
- Okay, cool, so see we
not strangers anymore.
(gentle music)
So what do you think?
- What do you think?
- I think you're gorgeous.
- You think you're slick.
If I were to say no,
would that make me a horrible person?
- No, not at all.
I won't be mad either way, it's up to you.
Your call.
(gentle music)
- Yeah, sure, why not?
- Okay.
- [Gabby] Okay.
(gentle music)
Girl, he is so fine.
- He just hit you up out the blue?
- Yes, I guess he follows
me on social media.
He actually don't have any
pictures up on his profile.
- Oh, so he's a serial k*ller.
- Hey, he's not a serial k*ller,
he's a software engineer who
loves to travel and to cook.
- Oh, okay. So engineer.
So he got that money, ah.
Okay, you see that's
what we talking about.
Ka-ching.
- Just when I thought
about giving up on love,
it just fell right in my lap.
- That's how it be.
But what expensive restaurant
are y'all going to though?
- Oh, he's cooking for me.
- I don't know how I feel about that.
- Hazel, it's romantic.
- Or cheap.
(door knocks)
(gentle music)
- Hi.
- You look even more gorgeous in person.
- Thank you.
- Come on in.
(door clicks)
(gentle music)
So what do you think?
- Hmm, this food is so amazing.
Oh my gosh, you made this?
- Yeah.
- What seasonings did you use?
- You know a man can't
tell all his secrets now.
- Okay, well let me tell you
that you do this for real.
- The chef, yes, but
engineering pays the bills.
- But Dominique, this is so good.
I dunno, I feel like you
need to follow your dreams
and I'm thinking like one, I don't know,
maybe a couple of viral
videos of you cooking
in that kitchen with your shirt off
is going to be big.
You gonna take off, trust me.
- You think so?
- Oh, I know so, are you crazy?
Have you tasted your own cooking?
(Gabby and Domonique chuckle)
- Well what about you?
What about your dreams?
- Oh no.
- What?
- I don't wanna scare you away.
This is always the part
where the conversation
that goes left for me.
- Talk to me.
- What year did you say this wine was?
Hold on, lemme try it again.
It's been so long.
- Let me see.
- Wait, that's good, let me let me.
- I bet.
Talk to me.
(Gabby clears throat)
(gentle music)
- I'm exhausted.
I just wanna feel safe,
wanted, respected, seen.
You know, I want the man of my dreams
to love God more than he loves me
and definitely more than he loves himself
because that's the only way
that it's gonna work, okay?
I wanna get married,
I wanna have 1,000 kids
that just make me wanna pull my hair out
at the end of every night and just...
(Gabby chuckles)
That's my dream.
I know it sounds old fashioned,
but yeah, that's how I feel.
- I think it's refreshing.
- Really?
- Yeah.
What happened?
- What do you mean?
- What makes you so afraid to love?
(sad music)
- I've just been in a lot of dark places
and I refuse to go back.
- What kind of dark places?
(sad music)
So this is how we don't become
strangers anymore, you know?
(sad music)
So what kind of dark places?
(sad music)
- Hopelessness, thinking that it's okay
to settle for someone
treating you horrible
and cheating on you,
taking whatever from somebody
because they can do
whatever they want to you
because you think that you deserve it
or letting someone treat
you however they see fit
because you think of yourself as low
and beneath the earth.
I just...
I took a long time to build
a strong relationship with God, okay?
And I just, I'm gonna do
it right by him this time.
I know that God has plans for me
and all I have to do is just do my part.
- I like that.
- You do?
- Yeah.
But I'm not here to play games.
If you're looking for someone
that's gonna respect you,
your boundaries, your faith,
your journey, that's me.
(Gabby and Domonique chuckle)
So if you don't mind me asking,
when's the last time
you've been intimate with somebody?
Look, you ain't gotta answer that.
I know what you think-
- Seven years.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I was serious about changing my life
and I vowed celibacy and
have not looked back since.
Yeah, I don't know.
I started this spiritual journey
and ever since I made
that change, I don't know,
my life has just felt so much better
and I plan on saving
myself for my husband, so.
Okay, I guess that's it.
- Wait, where you going?
- We really can just call it a night.
You can save me 48 hours
of looking at my phone
for your text messages or phone calls.
I already know how this goes,
but listen, the food was amazing,
you have a gift, keep going.
I'll just see myself out.
Thanks again.
- Gabby, Gabby, look,
I don't know what type of guys
you're used to dealing with,
but I'm not like that.
Just gimme a chance.
Wait, wait, wait, what?
- Hey look, so what happened
was, as soon as it flew up,
Wider, he catched the wig
- No,
no.
- And just popped right down
on his lap like it was
a pet and kept going.
(Gabby and Domonique laugh)
(gentle upbeat music)
No, wait, wait, wait.
- You had to be there.
Like my visual was pride,
didn't do it for you,
but you had to be there.
- No, I got it.
I got it, I got it.
(gentle upbeat music)
You seem crazy.
(gentle upbeat music)
- Thanks for letting me be myself tonight.
- Trust me, you the best.
I can listen to you talk all night.
- Be careful what you wish for
because I have stories for days, okay?
(gentle upbeat music)
- You're incredible, Gabby.
You know that?
That's your strength, your
faith, your self-respect.
And I'm not trying to push you
into anything you're not ready for,
but I see something special in you.
And if that means taking things slow,
then slow it is.
(gentle music)
- You really mean that?
- Absolutely.
(bouncy music)
- Hey.
Hey, what's time is it?
Think we fell asleep.
I gotta get up early
and go to work tomorrow.
- Hold on, wait, am I
gonna see you tomorrow?
- I would like that.
Thank you for such a great evening.
I really had a good time
and dinner was so delicious.
I'm not gonna forget that meal.
- I think next time, I'm
gonna make some lasagna.
You're gonna fall in love.
- I can see that.
I'll see you tomorrow?
- Yeah, that's cool.
Wait, hold on, one more.
One more just like that.
(gentle romantic music)
(birds twitter)
(gentle romantic music)
(Gabby chuckles)
(gentle romantic music)
(Gabby chuckles)
(gentle romantic music)
- Oh this boy know what he doing.
(gentle romantic music)
(Gabby squeals)
He know what he doing, yep,
yep, yep.
(phone vibrates)
Ms. Shannon.
- [Ms. Shannon] Baby, where are you?
Are you coming into work?
- Oh my God, yes, yes, I'm coming.
I'm coming right now.
I'm sorry Ms. Shannon, I overslept.
I'll be right there.
All right now.
- Okay, bye.
(gentle upbeat music)
(bell rings)
Girl, the food was so good.
What he cook?
- Steak.
- Okay, okay, but what sides?
- Saute beans, mashed potatoes and then...
(gentle romantic music)
- What?
What's to tea, what?
You got some, didn't you?
Oh my God, you did.
(Hazel squeals)
See girl, that's what you been needing.
Was it good?
Oh, was it good?
- You are sick.
(Hazel squeals)
- Lemme tell you, so the next morning,
tell me why this man had
already cooked breakfast,
left roses and gave me
$300 to get my nails done?
- Okay, you see what
happened when you seeing?
You get stuff.
- You know what, I think I'm
gonna get him a gift too.
Maybe a cooking set?
- Not too much, not too much.
- What?
I just, you know, I wanna
make his energy, you know?
He's special to me
and clearly he is spoiling
your girl already.
- Let me find out Gabby got some good cat.
(Gabby meows)
(phone vibrates)
- He's calling right now.
- Oh, put on speaker.
(phone vibrates)
- Hello?
Hey babe.
- Hey, how was breakfast?
- It was so good.
Oh and thank you for my present too.
I'm actually at the
nail salon as we speak.
I needed this so bad.
- No problem, I want you to
know you're special to me.
Planned to get you something at lunch,
but I got so caught up at work.
- Oh, that's not a problem.
I was busy taking care of the kids today
at the daycare center anyway.
I was thinking maybe
since you cooked dinner
for me last night, I can return a favor
and cook for you tonight.
- Okay, okay.
- You know, show you how it's
really done in the kitchen.
- [Domonique] Okay, so
winner takes all then.
- Oh absolutely.
I'ma send you my address, okay?
- Okay, good, I'll see you tonight.
- Okay, bye.
(gabby chuckles)
What?
- Girl, you finally got your man
and now you gonna k*ll
him with food poisoning.
Ohh
Keep it steady, keep it shy
When the world pulls me away
Let your love eat my stay
You're my part in this day
And put the fire
(gentle upbeat music)
(sad music)
I can't seem to find no love
(sad music)
No love
I can't seem to find no love
(sad music)
No love
Going out my mind
(phone vibrates)
Can't seem to find no love
No love
No love
(sad music)
No love
No love
No love
No love
(sad music)
(Gabby cries)
Oh no
(door knocks)
- [Domonique] Gabby.
(door knocks)
Gabby, please open the door.
Let me explain.
Just gimme a chance to
tell you what's going on.
I'm leaving her for you.
I'm telling her tomorrow.
I've never met a girl like
you, I can't lose you.
I'm serious, you have to believe me.
Please don't do this,
don't end it like this.
(door knocks)
(box rustles)
(sad music)
(sad music continues)

(dial tone rings)
(sad music)
Your call has been forwarded-
- No!
Oh, so you're sending me the
voicemail right now, huh?
Is this what we doing?
You can't do what?
You can't do this anymore.
You can't do what? Lie to me anymore.
You can't fake like you're

What is going on?
Please just call me back.
Call me back, let's talk about it.
(sad music)

Just I dunno, I guess
your phone is on silent

Yeah.
You sending me the voicemail?
Like I don't understand.
- [Voice Mail] Please record your message.
When you have finished recording,
you may hang up or press

(phone beeps)
- Domonique, pick up the phone.
At least come tell me to
my face like a real man.
You are a coward, a coward!
(sad music)
(phone beeps)
(Gabby screams)
(somber music)
(children chattering)
(somber music continues)
(intense music)
- Whoa, whoa, what's going on?
Daddy.
- Is everything okay?
- Come on, son.
- Of course, I'm sorry, sir.
- What was that about?
- I just, sorry.
(sad music)
(car rustles)
(sad music)
(cars rustle)
(car horn hoots)
(intense music)
- I told you not to fling with him.
No profile picture, hitting
you up out the blue?
Red flags, told you.
Next.
Oh no, we not doing this.
Hazel.
- Gabby, no.
He's playing games with you.
You need to block his number,
block his socials, everything, blocked.
(sad music)
Do not call or text him.
You're worth so much more than this.
Gabby.
- I am!
- Thank you.
He's clearly a narcissist, girl.
Don't let him get power over you.
- I'm done.
- Best way to get over another
man, get on another one.
You need a Draymond.
- A Draymond?
- Girl, you don't watch football?
A rebound man,
somebody preoccupy your time
when you getting over him.
Sure, you just need to find the right one
and actually listen to me this time.
- No, no, I'm done.
I'm done with this whole dating thing.
I tried it, it's over.
I feel like at this point
I need to go to the altar
and rededicate my life for something.
- You know what?
We need to get you on some dating apps.
- Hazel, I'm not doing
none of them hookup apps.
- Well how else is you
gonna find somebody,
Miss 20th century?
sh**t, it's fast and
easy and all you gotta do
is swipe it till you find
what you're looking for.
This way you are in control.
Or just spend every waking moment
thinking about what you did or didn't do.
It's up to you.
- Do they got Christian ones?
- Girl, it's all the same people.
(gentle music)
- [Leo] That's my favorite
place in the city.
- Wow, so you're really into all of this?
Like the farmer's market,
organic everything?
- Yeah, there's something
special about shopping local
and knowing where food come from.
- If only we can have for
our spouses like that,
the ingredients already on the label.
- May contain emotional unavailability
and unresolved issues.
- Or best use small doses,
side effects may contain
confusion, work, frustration.
- Yeah.
Oh fun fact about dragon fruit,
you know it's grown on a cactus?
(gentle music)
Hey, you all right?
- Yeah, I just wondering
what I'm doing here.
- Here at the market or here with me?
- Both really.
- Look, I'm gonna be honest.
- Well, and here it is.
Warning, consciences may continue.
- No, nothing like that,
but I'm just getting
outta something serious
and still kinda shook up
about it a little bit.
- Really?
- Yeah.
Not really looking that serious right now.
- So.
So a fun fact about limes,
it's not a real fruit.
- Oh, you know your stuff.
Me too, these plums.
(doorbell rings)
- [Gabby] Farmer's market.
What's going on?
- Hey.
- Got you something.
- Nice.
Oh dear, you can come on in.
- Okay, I didn't expect you
to call me so quick though.
- Yeah, well you got all the
ingredients on your label, so.
- I must say.
This is some big house you got.
Stay here by yourself?
- Yeah, I mean I use
both bathrooms, so, so.
(Leo chuckles)
- Cool.
- Okay, yeah, you could just follow me.
- All right.
(gentle music)
Should we open this?
- Yeah, sure.
- Okay.
You got a bottle opener?
- Oh yeah, I don't know why I thought you.
Yeah, okay.
Just make yourself at home.
Here's the remote and I'll be back.
- Take the bottle with you.
(gentle music)
- I actually don't have
a bottle opener per se.
Usually I just twisty top type of girl.
- Yeah, this ain't one of those.
Oh.
- Just ain't.
- Okay, well you wanna go upstairs?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
(gentle music)
(sad music)
(gentle music)
- [River] Hiking's a lot
like life, perseverance.
You might even get lost at times.
- [Gabby] So what do you
do when you get lost?
- [River] I normally just center myself.
Let the nature take over.
- Would you say that
you're a spiritual person?
- In my own way.
I like to listen to everything around me,
including myself.
Everything else gonna fall
into place after that.
- Yeah, I like that.
Makes sense.
So what are you doing later on tonight?
(gentle music)
- I can get used to that.
(gentle music)
- Come on, Draymond.
Hit the rebound, man.
- So what time are we going to the game?
- Going to the game?
- Yeah.
- Why would we go to the game
when you got all that TV over there, girl?
You crazy.
- But you said we was gonna
watch the game tonight.
- Yeah, on all that TV you got.
You tripping, girl.
Crazy.

Okay, sorry, it's X, down?

Wasted.
- Wait, what happened?

game over, we're over.
Huh?

Exit the ship.

- Not even a phone call.
Second date?

- Yeah?
- Hi, is Domonique here?
- Who?
- Domonique, is he here?
- Wait, are you the Airbnb owner?
(somber music)
Listen, our music isn't really that loud.
The reason we parked on the street
was 'cause there was
no parking last night.
Listen, lady, we paid our money
just like everybody else did.
We're not trying to cause any problems.
Did we disturb the neighbors?
(intense music)
Have a good day.
(door clanks)
(door knocks)
- Gabby?
- Yeah, you can come on in.
- You live with somebody?
- No.
What's wrong?
- I ain't gonna lie to you,
just kind of getting
like bad vibes right now.
- Wait, what?
- Like I'm hearing somebody or something.
- Not hearing nothing.
- Oh, you do live with somebody.
- No, I don't.
So go on and just.
- Yo, I ain't gonna lie, hold on.
Damn.
Emergency, something just came up.
I gotta go.
- Oh, okay.
Yeah, it's cool.
I'll walk you to your car.
- No, no, no, it's cool.
I know where it is.
Like yeah.
- Okay, I'll text you.
(dog barks)
- [Hazel] He came over there?
- [Gabby] Just left.
(Gabby chuckles)
- You little wh*re.
Oh my gosh, you collect them
bodies like Pokemon cards now.
Gotta catch 'em out, huh?
Girl, at this point, your bed
gonna need a loyalty program.
- I can't believe I'm actually doing this.
- It's okay to be happy, Gabby.
You deserve this.
Don't you feel freer?
- You know what, I actually do.
- Okay then keep doing what you're doing.
You don't owe nobody nothing.
(phone beeps)
Girl, Larry calling me.
I gotta go.
But lunch tomorrow, right?
(phone beeps)
- Okay.
- All right and I gotta surprise for you.
(Hazel giggles)
Bye.
Hey, chocolate bundle.
(sad music)
(object bangs)
- Damn squirrels.
(phone pings)
(picture frame thunks)
(water trickles)
(shadow whooshes)
(eerie music)
- Gabby, I noticed you've
been very tired lately.
Is everything okay?
- Yeah, I think I need to
take a few days off and rest.
- Well you done already
took a lot of days off.
- I know, Ms. Shannon.
I'm sorry, okay?
I just haven't been getting
a lot of rest lately.
I can't sleep.
I've been hearing noises.
- Well what kind of noises?
- I don't know, it's just strange.
Like the squirrels or birds
been in my walls or something.
Something is coming crashing
down hard on the floor,
but then when I go up and look at it,
nothing's there and everything
is still in the same place.
- Who you done had in your house?
- Nobody.
Why does that matter?
- Well, sounds to me like
something that rolled in on somebody.
- What you mean?
- Look, you have to be careful
who you let in your house.
What type of company
are you keeping there?
- I just be having friends over.
(eerie music)
- Anybody you lay down with,
you become one flesh with them.
- Excuse me?
- I know what's going on over there.
- You think it's like soul ties?
You don't believe that, do you?
- You know anything about those guys
you've been having over there?
- [Hazel] Girl Ms. Shannon from church,
that lady is old and senile
and you listening to her?
It's probably some rats.
- I mean I thought the
same thing at first,
but I don't know.
It does feel like something or
someone has been in my house.
I mean, even one of the guys who came over
said that he felt it too.
- One?
How many been over there?
- Oh no, no, no, I know you
are not judging me right now.
You are the one who told me-
- I ain't told you nothing.
Don't blame this on me.
Oh, so now it's my fault.
I ain't told you to go sleep
with every darn Sean,
Rick and Gary in town.
- You know what, can you just come over
my house tonight please?
- I can't.
- Why not?
- Because Larry proposed.
(Hazel giggles)
- What?
- Yes girl.
So we doing dinner tonight.
And this is a surprise I've
been trying to tell you about.
- I just didn't think that marriage was,
I thought...
- You thought what?
So anyways, I'm thinking about like doing
a destination wedding because you know,
food and that's where all the costs go.
But Larry wanna do something traditional.
So I may do the church
'cause you know I'm not
really against the church,
but I don't really know 'cause...
Where you going?
(sad music)
- I cannot believe I
actually listened to you
and to take advice from you.
- What? Gabby?
Gabby.
(somber music)
(keyboard keys clicks)
(intense music)
Boyfriend.
Boyfriend?
(intense music)
(Gabby gags)
(intense music)
Do I wanna find anymore?
(intense music)
(sad music)
(somber music)
(Ava laughs)
(somber music)
(somber music continues)
(somber music continues)
- [Gabby] Domonique, is that-
- Are you following me?
- What?
No, this is one of my-
- I tried to put you down easy.
I thought you was a decent girl.
- And exactly what type
of engineering jobs
are you doing here?
- Put a restraining order on you.
(intense music)
- You lied.
I know what you did to those
girls and I'm gonna find out.
And best believe when I do find out,
I am going to tell-
- Hey, if I see you around me again,
I'm gonna put my hands on you
and not the way you want me to.
Stay the f*ck away from me.
(somber music)
- Your threats don't hurt me.
You don't scare me
and I want my cooking set back.
(somber music)
(call rings)
- [Tiffany] Hello?
- Hi, is this Tiffany?
- [Tiffany] Who's asking?
- It's Alexis.
I am working with an online podcast
for a piece on modern day
relationships and dating.
Were you friends with Ava?
Do you know where she is?
Hello?
- [Tiffany] No one has
heard from Ava for days now.
- Oh yeah.
So what, did she just go up and missing?
- [Tiffany] Who knows.
Ava wasn't really someone you'd call
emotionally or economically stable.
- Do you think that had anything to do
with her dating Domonique?
- Domonique?
(intense music)
What is this really about?
- Oh, it's nothing serious, I swear.
We're just exploring the dynamics
of relationships and personal growth.
And since you were friends with Ava,
did Ava tell you anything about him?
Maybe about how he was in relationships
or if he was an honest person?
- [Tiffany] He creeped me out, honestly.
Even after he broke up with her,
he didn't want her to be happy.
She couldn't date other men.
He was psychotic, always
watching, always close.
This really for a podcast?
(somber music)
- Hello?
(somber music)
Crazy.

(Gabby and Hazel scream)
What are you doing here?
- I'm here to check on you, fool.
(eerie music)
(Gabby breaths heavily)
What's wrong with you?
- He's up there.
- [Hazel] Who up there?
- [Gabby] Just come.
- [Hazel] Let me go get my dog.
(Gabby and Hazel speak indistinctly)
- It's in there.
(eerie music)
No, come.
- No.
It's in there.
- Why?
Girl, there's nothing here.
- No, no, Hazel, Hazel, I saw something,
something was in there.
I see the shadow, I'm not lying.
- [Hazel] You good?
- [Gabby] Hazel, you gotta believe me.
- [Hazel] Are you okay?
- I know what I saw.
(eerie music)
I'm telling, you it's something
or someone in my house.
- Who's in the house?
- I don't know, like maybe Domonique.
- Girl, George Foreman?
Girl, is this what this is all about?
You still stuck on that man?
You stalking him?
- No.
When I realize that I
didn't really know the guys
that I've been with,
I decided to do some research.
Okay and the last few
women that he's been with,
I mean one of them is dead
and the other one, she's missing.
- You been stalking this man social pages?
And what's this got to do with the shadows
that you say you seen upstairs?
- I don't know.
I don't know, maybe he's actually a k*ller
or maybe he's a kidnapper.
But either way, I don't
know, he's something like-
- You're scaring the heck out of me.
(eerie music)
But what you going to do?
'Cause me and Larry got something to do.
- I definitely ain't going back in there.
- Okay, so where you gonna go?
You know I stay too far from your job.

(patron laughs)
(phone vibrates)
- Yeah?
(eerie music)
- [Hazel] Do you really think
he did something to his exes?
Girl, how you gonna prove it
when you ain't even got no evidence?
- [Gabby] Just come with me to
check something right quick.
If nothing is there, I
promise I will let it go.
(eerie music)
(glass bangs)
- Shoo, trying to lock me out here.
We all know the hood.
sh**t, we need stop
by the store.
- This is Tiffany.
- k*lled them, didn't he?
- [Tiffany] Oh, it's you again.
- Is there any more information
that you can give me
that leads me to this?
- [Tiffany] Look, I don't know you,
you're gonna have to pay
me a little something
for the information I have.
(eerie music)
(phone dings)
- Okay, sent.
- [Tiffany] I talked with the police.
They pinged her phone
and the last location
was at his house.
- So his house?
The Airbnb.
Were there more girls?
- That's all I know.
(phone beeps)
(intense music)
- What she say?
- Looks like we're about
to get our evidence.
(eerie music)
(phone rings)
You got me out here in these streets,
meanwhile, you finna get married.
What friend are you?
- One needs a bridesmaid who
dress deposit is coming up.
Are you still even working at the daycare?
- She's not answering.
- That's because she's
probably taking your money
and lying to you.
(intense music)
That's it, that's it.
- Gabby, watch out!
(car horn honks)
You're gonna get us k*lled!
Pay attention!
- Okay, okay, okay, stop yelling at me.
(eerie music)
(person speaks indistinctly)
(eerie music)
(Hazel screams)
(car horn honks)
(dog barks)
(eerie music)
- In the house?
(eerie music)
What?
- Girl, now I know you
got a Bobby pin in here.
- My wig gonna fall off.
What?
What am I supposed to do with that?
- Oh no, you finna get married,
you don't know what to do with it.
Girl, this ain't your first rodeo.
Go ahead.
(intense music)
- [Hazel] Gabby, what if
somebody's squatting up in here?
This is dangerous.
- It's Airbnb, we're fine.
- [Hazel] Girl.
- Listen, all we gotta do, find
the evidence like she said,
go turn it into the police
and then we're gonna be done
with this whole thing, okay?
- [Hazel] How are we gonna
find evidence without light?
- Wait, look, I don't
wanna go to jail for you.
Hey, let's go. Ain't nothing here.
(ball clinks)
(eerie music)
Oh, oh.
That's sick.
Gab, Gab, Gabby.
- She said underneath
the floor.

Oh no, no, no.

(eerie music)
Oh hell!

Gabby, there ain't nothing

- Okay, she said under the floor.
(metal clicks)
Check, oh,
check the boxes over there.
- Gabby, Gabby, Gabby.
Let me go, hell no.
- Check the boxes over there.
- Gabby, ain't nothing down here.
- Just check the boxes.
She said it's under here somewhere.
Go, just go.
- Gabby.
She said it was under-
- Gabby, let's go!
- No, no.
(eerie music)
No.
(phone rings)
She said it was here.
She said the last place I've been.
This was the last place I've been.
- No, the lady was playing
you for your money.
We need to go.
- She didn't answer.
- That's because she's
lying to you, Gabby.
No.
- Why don't you get?
- Just check over there.
It's here somewhere.
- No.
- It's here somewhere, Hazel.
Just check please, it's here somewhere.
Hazel check, she said

She said that!
- Gabby, do you hear yourself?
(sad music)
Gabby.
He lied to me.
- Gabby.
- [Gabby] No, he lied.
I gave him everything I
said I wanted to give him
and he lied.
(sad music)
- Come on, Gabby.
(sad music)
Be safe.

(car horn hoots)
(door clanks)
(object thuds)
(eerie music)
(object thuds)

(Gabby and Domonique scream)
(Gabby screams)
(eerie music)
(Gabby screams)
(intense music)
(Gabby screams)
(eerie music)
(Gabby screams)
Where is he?
- Gabby, Gabby, Gabby, calm.
- Where is he?
- Gabby, where is who?
- Domonique, Domonique, he's after me.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,
wait, you bumped your head.
No one was after you
when I walked up to you.
- What?
Wait, that was you in a car?
- Yes.
You disappeared and no
one's heard from you.
Even the children had
been asking about you.
I wasn't just gonna sit around
and gossip on the phone.
So I came to check on you.
(gentle music)
Is everything okay?
What's wrong?
(sad music)
What are you afraid of?
(sad music)
- So that guy,
his name's Domonique
and he betrayed me.
(sad music)
He betrayed my trust.
- Baby.
- I'm just now realizing how
hurt I was by the situation.
- Life throws us all blows, Gabby,
but we have to learn to weather the storm.
- You know I had this
crazy idea that he...
That he actually k*lled
his previous girlfriends.
And I thought he was
trying to k*ll me too.
How crazy is that?
- Real crazy.
- I mean, Shannon, I saw him.
Like I literally saw him.
He was chasing me, I just saw what-
- The enemy is always
playing tricks on your mind.
He's here to do nothing but
k*ll, steal and destroy.
Love can be a k*ller too.
It may not k*ll you physically,
but it can sure k*ll you mentally,
spiritually and emotionally.
(gentle music)
You have to turn back to Him.
- But what if I messed up too much?
- It ain't nothing more
than God can handle.
Sleep here tonight.
I gotta get the food ready
for the pastor retirement tomorrow.
(gentle music)
- No, I think I'll just go home.
- You sure?
- Yeah, I'm sure.
- Okay.
(gentle music)
(car rumbles)
(gentle music)
- Thank you, Ms. Shannon.
- You're welcome, sweetheart.
(gentle music)
(car door bangs)
(gentle music)
(car horn honks)
(gentle music)
(gentle music continues)
(phone pings)
- It is time to share
what I've been through.
So I've been quiet because I was ashamed,
confused and honestly, I was lost.
I went through something that broke me.
I trusted someone who didn't value me
and I let that pain pull me away from God.
And instead of turning to him,
I just turned to my own strength
and that was not enough.
I was drowning in anger
and shame and bitterness.
I mean, I started questioning everything.
My faith, my worth, my sanity,
even if God was really there.
But you know what, I
realized God was there
and He never left me.
For I am convinced that
neither death nor life,
neither angels nor demons,
neither the present nor
the future, nor any powers,
neither height nor depths,
nor anything else in all creation
will be able to separate
us from the love of God
that is in Christ, Jesus, our Lord.
I just wanna say, no matter
how far gone you feel,
that God's love is greater.
(gentle music)
- Now our sanctuary can hold quite a bit
and we can decorate it really
nice for you and everything.
You don't have to go to
the islands to get married.
You can get married right here.
The ceremony and the reception
and our fellowship hall is a full kitchen.
- Gabby girl, they said they gonna let us
get the church for free.
- Larry, what are you
going to do with her?
- I don't know, man.
Just pray for me.
- Hey there Ms. Shannon, Gabby,
I've been looking for you too.
- Pastor, we sure hate to see you go.
- Yeah, I know,
but listen, I want you
both to meet the new pastor
that's being installed next week.
Him and his lovely wife,
I'm sure you're going to love 'em both.
Ah, here he is.
(eerie music)
Reverend Dominique Randall
and his lovely wife, Ava.
(eerie music)
I'm sure he is gonna take the
church to unchartered heights.
Amen.
- Amen.
(eerie music)
(gentle music)
(gentle upbeat music)
Ahh
I can't seem to find no love
Ahh
(gentle upbeat music)
Ohh
Ohh
(gentle upbeat music)
(singer scats)
Ahh
(gentle music)
Ah
