03x04 - Being Kara

[bunniefuu]

I love you, Lisa.

- You betrayed me.
- su1c1de?

I mean did you, did you think
it would ever come to that?

You had alcohol in your system

when you crashed into my car.

So you are going to pay me

every two weeks $ in cash.

Do you want me to just stop working

so I can chauffeur the kids around?

I think they should come
live with me full time.

[instrumental music]

[moaning]

(Kara) 'Oh, my gosh, oh.'

[moaning]

Oh, damn.

Oh, damn, I needed that.

Oh.

[laughs]

Are you gonna stay?

- Yeah, I was planning on it.
- Yeah?

Alright, I'll be right back.

I just gotta get the sports page, okay?

- Don't you ever sleep?
- I know.

[laughs]

- 'Oh.'
- Ah.

I gotta go.

Come on, papa, you gotta get up.

I gotta go to work, you gotta get up.

Come on. Listen...

'The front door, it sticks'

so make sure it's locked

when you leave, please
because it sticks.

- 'Alright?'
- Uh-huh.

Remember we have dinner tonight

with my friend Rich and his wife Adrian.

Oh, my gosh. How long
are they in town again?

Uh, till the end of the week.

Look if you can't make it tonight...

No, no, no that's fine, I
know that he's your best friend

'so I do wanna go but, um'

just text me the details and
I will make it work, okay?

You remember about the door, right?

Huh? Alright, good.

Now get up.

Oh, my gosh, okay.

I'm so late. Oh, my gosh. Wait a minute.

I'm caught, help me here. I'm caught.

- Just pull it down.
- Okay.

Hurry up. Okay.

Alright, alright,
alright. Have a good day.

Don't forget, lock the door.

[instrumental music]

I'd say she looks
pretty good, considering.

Tony, the key light is still too hot.

All I see is scar. Come on.

- Does it really look that bad?
- Everything looks great, M.J.

Ain't nobody got time for your
lies, Lance. What'd he say?

He thought you looked good.
They were discussing lighting.

Any sign of Kara?

She said she's five seconds away.

(male # ) 'Mary Jane,
over here, please.'

'Perfect.'

I know, I know.

Before you start, I know I'm late.

- I'm sorry.
- It's fine, it's fine.

I went in on my own.

What?

You couldn't just stop for me?

No, you get minutes

and a whole lot of e-mail
reminders to be on time.

It went fine, really.

Seriously, I cannot believe you.

You know what? Enough
with the fine crap, John.

You know it drives me crazy.

What do you want me to say, Kara?

'It's always the same story with you.'

Well, that's because
I'm up late working.

Yeah like I said, same story.

Well, what did Your
Highness have to say anyway?

What is the same
parent-teacher mumbo jumbo?

Unfortunately, no, she thinks

that Scott's problems with math

may be more significant.

'They want to test him.'

Apparently he's displaying signs

of something called dyscalculia.

(Kara) 'What?'

I guess it's like
dyslexia for, for numbers.

Oh, please, he's nine years
old, for crying out loud.

Maybe she should try
doing her damn job better

and stop labeling our child
with a learning disability.

(John) 'Okay.'

'Yeah, you know this didn't
come out of the blue.'

- You've seen him struggle.
- Yeah.

That's because he's gotta put down

those damn video games.

He's gotta study harder.

That's what I'm always saying.

It's not about how he studies, Kara.

It's about how he learns.

Well we have to do better
by our son, you know?

We'll-we'll-we'll get him a tutor

we'll work with him more.

I work with him day in and day out.

I know that, John, I'm not
pointing fingers at you.

What is this gonna cost me,
anyway, this testing thing?

Because, you know, heh heh

with child support

the mortgage on the house

'rent on my condo'

and you know I'm helping
my mom and dad out.

There's not a whole lot left in
the kitty, you know what I mean?

- Yep, yep.
- 'Yeah, yeah.'

Honestly, I don't know, Kara.

Of course you don't know.

You know what? Actually I do.

What, you wanna pull him
out of here? We can do that.

We can put him in a
school that specializes...

No, we are not pulling
him from this school.

Let's just pump the brakes
here for a second, okay?

They haven't even tested him yet.

[Conway singing "Take Me Back"]

Maybe they could stay with me

for a little while, you know?

I could, I could leave work early.

I could, wait a minute.

I could leave work early and I could

spend some really great
quality time with them.

I could help Scott with his homework.

- I'm better at math.
- Wait...

You don't think he's going to freak out

if he can't take Lucy with him?

So let him take the damn dog.

Whatever, it's fine.

I-I'm good.

♪ I don't wanna say... ♪

Why do you always do this?

What?

Think you gotta be superwoman

or something, you know?

You missed a meeting, so what?

So what?

It's fine.

It's fine?

It's not fine. It's not fine.

It's not fine. Look at me.

It is not fine.

It is not fine for me anymore

and you are hurting me

and those are my kids.

Those are my kids.

Oh, is this seven?

Thank you.

Hey, uh, hey, Kara, Kara.

Mary Jane's on the warpath again.

What else is new?

I can't.

- Something wrong?
- Oh, my gosh.

No, everything's great.

Kara, what the hell?

Hello to you too.

I told you I had that thing
at school this morning.

Yeah and I assumed you would reschedule

'because you knew how
important this was to me.'

Well, it can't always be
about you, mama, I'm sorry.

Greg sidelined me for another week.

What? Why? Your scar looks great.

I don't know why, Kara, that's
why I needed you here today.

I know, I could not be
here because of my kid, M.J.

Scotty's having some issues at school

and the teacher wanted both John and I

there to discuss it, okay?

Is everything okay?

Yeah, yeah, I guess.

Great. I need to get back to work.

I know, okay, okay, listen

just, just, just give me some time

with Greg and let me see
what I can get done, okay?

Sit tight.

Shh, stop.

Just give me a minute.

I'll fix you something, I will.

Is your brother awake yet?

- What?
- He peed the bed again.

Oh.

Stop, I mean it.

Hey, don't you dare tease him, Max.

Max, promise me.

Scotty!

Scotty, come here, baby.

'Scott, where are you? Come here.'

Oh, honey, look at you.

It's alright. Stop it.

It's alright, baby.
Nothing to be upset about.

Oh, it's okay.

Listen, why don't you go shower

and get yourself cleaned up, alright?

Mommy will take care of the rest.

It's alright. Okay?

Hey, hey, get off my shoe!

Look at my shoe.

Dammit, Max, I told you to
keep that dog in your room!

- She's not my dog.
- Well, she's not mine either.

God, I need you to start
taking some damn responsibility.

Why are you always freaking out?

- Really?
- Well, it's true.

You want some truth, buddy?

You are being a real ass, lately.

And I never even wanted
to buy you another dog.

- You guys wanted it.
- Scott did!

Yeah, you did too!

And you do nothing for that dog.

Absolutely nothing.

If it was up to me, she'd be gone

by the time you get
home from school today.

Way to go, mom, seriously?

[cell phone chimes]

I'm sorry, sorry.

So what, you just gonna
use me and leave me?

No, I have to run an errand real quick

'but I will be right back.'

Oh, I gotta go, I gotta
go, I have to work out.

No, please, stay.

I need some more, please.
I'll be right back.

Damn.

Come on.

- Okay.
- Good.

Alright, then.

Hey, baby, you want some more eggs?

- No, thanks.
- 'No?'

Hey, Max, do you want some more eggs?

Hey, take that off for a minute please.

Listen, I wanted to talk to you
guys about what happened before.

I, more than anything

I just want you to know
how much I love you.

And even though you guys drive me crazy

sometimes, you really do, I just

I love you more than
anything in the whole world.

You know that, right? Huh?

- Do you know that?
- Yes.

- Yes.
- Okay.

And even though I meant

every single thing I said earlier

how I said it was
completely inappropriate.

And for that I am...

... so sorry, I'm so sorry, okay?

I love you so much.

And...

Forgive me, okay? Alright?

You're not gonna get
rid of Lucy, are you?

No, baby, of course not, I promise.

'Now listen, your dad'

is gonna pick you up
today and he's gonna

bring you back here, okay?

What? Why?

Because I think it's important for us

to start spending a little quality

time together, that's why.

'And, Scotty, I want you to bring home'

your homework and save it.

And you and I are
going to do it together

'step by step, alright?'

We're supposed to go hang
out with Jana Marshall

today at dad's house.

And Scott's got a play date.

First of all, that is
not your dad's house.

That is my house, and
I gave him that...

Um, I'm sorry, never mind.

Why don't you bring your
friends back here today?

Huh? Problem solved.

- Yeah, but this place sucks.
- Why?

You just want a play date with Jana

so you can stare at her boobs.

It's called a hang out, you douche.

Hey, hey, Max!

Language, and keep your
hands to yourself, mister.

Gosh. Hi, John, what's up?

(John on phone) Hey, what's going on?

Max called, said there was an emergency.

Something about your shoes or Lucy...

Hold on a second.

Excuse me, did you call your father?

You were freaking out, scaring the kid.

So what, you told on me?

Seriously?

- Kara? Hello?
- Hello? Hi.

What is going on there? Is Max there?

Everything's fine. It's all good.

He didn't have to bother you, alright?

Oh, hold on, hey!

Stop, what are you doing?

Stop it!

My God, are you kidding me?

Oh, and hey, hey, I
forgot to tell you, um

we're scheduled to bring in treats

for, for our scouts
class thing tomorrow.

If you want, I can pick something up.

No, no, no, I got it. It's fine.

- Are you sure?
- Seriously, we're good.

Just let me know if it's
too much, Kara, okay?

I got it under control and we are good.

So talk to you later,
John, alright? I gotta go.

- Kara.
- Bye.

Wait, Kara?

Wasn't expecting it to be so ugly today.

It's a perfect day for extortion.

Oh.

Thank you.

To hell with you.

You know I hate what the black man

has done to the black woman.

Abandonment is the direct
cause of our masculinity.

Look at you, potty mouth.

Where do you get this drag, hmm?

I read, and then I
think about what I read.

A luxury black folk
are not accustomed to.

Reflection allows growth.

Growth allows space.

Black people need to grow.

Mm-hmm.

Do you think about anything
besides black people and race?

No. We are still at w*r.

And who are we fighting?

You know, I struggle with this blessing

I have been given to accept your money.

But now I see it was meant to be.

That's good pimp game. It's nice.

See, potty mouth, potty mouth.

Okay so, so how are you

fighting the black
folks' w*r with my money?

'Is it up your nose or in your arm?'

A pyramid scheme, that's what it is.

You know, a cynical mind can't listen

so I'm not going to waste my breath.

Oh, before I forget my condolences

on the loss of your friend.

Shut up, okay?

Shut up.

You don't have the right to
talk about my friend's life ever!

This little arrangement
does not afford you

that luxury, so shut up!

We can be civil.

Empathy is free, you know?

Apparently that and nothing else.

Right?

[indistinct chatter]

- Okay. Oh, that's be...
- Hello.

Did I miss the memo about the meeting?

No, no, Marisol was simply
telling me her ideas.

- Was she now?
- Yeah.

Now, we're thinking
instead of going with

immigration reform, that we would focus

more on the primaries.

Mm-hmm.

Can I have a quick word with you?

Alright, enough with the little games.

I've been around here too long

and I'm too tired to do
this little dance with you.

Now, I don't know how
it went over at TeleMundo

but here at SNC, you
don't go pitching stories

to the boss without coming to me first.

Even when you're sleeping with him.

- Excuse me?
- "Excuse me?"

Do you need me to translate?

Possibly.

Greg just asked me
what I'm interested in.

You know what, Marisol?

You're a big girl, you can rationalize

spreading your legs for that
little troll however you'd like.

But when you cost me
a week's worth of work

and you leave us
without a feature segment

for tomorrow's show,
that's when you and me

got a problem, you understand?

I don't like problems.

[instrumental music]

Hey.

You done with your workout yet?

Um...

Nathal, what the hell?

You said I can come
by so you can help me

with my resume.

Okay, alright.

I'll be inside.

Okay.

Don't you have a doorbell in this place?

Okay, based on this

I wouldn't hire you either.

You have no work experience.

Well, how am I supposed
to get any work experience

when I can't even get a job?

It's all one big game, honey.

And I don't know the rules.

That's because there are none, okay?

So, for example

why didn't you put down
your internship at SNC?

What internship?

- You lie?
- There we go.

Oh. Okay.

I mean, don't put down
that you ran the network

but you could say that

you were an intern in charge
of mailroom distribution.

You know, something that
makes you sound responsible.

Okay, but, uh, what exactly
happens in the mailroom?

Alright.

Whatever, I'll just watch Boomerang

and see what Chris
Rock did or something.

Take no prisoners.

Make sure your hair is laid, and you got

a cute little outfit on, the whole bit.

Oh, that's easy.

But, uh, when I do all that

'can I get one of those in my pool?'

You got to get a pool first.

- I do.
- Yeah.

Sorry, I got caught up at work.

That's fine. I mean,
don't worry about it.

Scott tried to wait up for you

and our Max is hanging
out front with Jana

until her mom gets home.

I know, I saw them.

She's cute.

He's got good taste.

Just like his dad.

Did you remember to get some treats?

I am going to make something sprucy.

- I found a recipe online.
- Uh-huh.

Why don't you just buy
something? It's much easier.

But less impressive.

I am so tired of those Martha Stewart

witches judging our son because

he's got store-bought brownies.

Mm-hmm, judging him or judging you?

Oh.

'Looks like somebody got
into a little something'

'something tonight, huh?'

Really, you're, you're
encouraging hooking up?

'I told you we are just friends.'

Me thinks thou dost protest too much.

- Hmm.
- Uh, whatever that means.

'Uh, I'm gonna go to bed.'

Okay, goodnight, buddy.

Don't forget to brush and
floss your teeth, okay?

Love you.

Okay so...

Do you think that was his first kiss?

Oh, yes, most definitely, mm-hmm.

[laughs]

So cute.

To our babies growing up.

Yes, I will toast to that.

Very good, very good.

[sighs] Although we
both know I don't deserve

much of the credit, I'm just saying.

Enough, okay? You're a great mom.

Yeah, well...

That's not exactly true, but thank you

for saying it anyway.

So what are we gonna do about Scott?

When did he start wetting the bed again?

It's been a couple of weeks now.

I mean this, this whole math thing

is really getting to him.

You know, I was reading that

one of the symptoms to this dyscalculia

is an over-sensitivity
to external stimuli.

And I was thinking, oh, that's...

You know how he reacts
to the loud noises?

Mm, well I spent some time

on the Google machine myself.

And did you happen to see

that people with dyscalculia

are often exceptional writers?

- Which he is.
- Okay, what's your point?

Well, that we shouldn't
just focus on the negative.

I'm not focusing on the negative.

I am actually trying to come up

with a solution, which, you know what?

Alright, fine, fine, fine, fine.

I am a problem-solver, John

that's what I do, I fix things.

Well, this could all be math anxiety.

Great, that's another trait

passed down, usually by the parents.

That's, that's good to hear.

Oh, gosh, Kara, you need to
get off the roller coaster.

- Seriously.
- No, no, no.

Listen, just hear me out for a second

I've been thinking about this. okay?

What if I have transferred

all of my issues to our son?

No, no, no, no, don't.

No, no, don't, don't, don't, don't.

[moaning]

Woman you got yours, twice.

Let me get mine.

I've got to get some sleep.

Hey.

How you doing?

Fine.

Well, you've been going
through a lot lately

so I'm-I'm just checking on you.

I'm good.

Let me get you a towel.

[instrumental music]

Calculia.

[instrumental music]

Calculia.

[cell phone chimes]

Oh, oh, oh.

Oh, no. Oh, my God!

Oh. Oh!

Ugh, damn.

Ah. Gotta be kidding me.

Hey, can you make these for me?

Some with nuts and some without.

Kara, it's after midnight.

I know, I know, I know, I know.

I just, I, uh, I-I don't want to send

Scott to school with
more grocery store treats.

And I just, I, I have to
get back to my kids so...

You left your kids home alone?

- Well, yeah, I mean...
- Kara?

They're sleeping, they
don't even know I'm gone.

I've been gone like , minutes tops.

It's, it's... Why are you
looking at me like that?

Can you do it for me, yes or no?

That's all I need to know from you.

Okay, okay.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

'I'm sorry, I'm sorry'

I'm sorry, I just...

I just feel like I can't do this.

I just feel like

I just feel like I've been an A student

my whole life and I just

I'm just a freaking C student

in everything in my life right now

and I just hate it.

I hate it and I...

I shouldn't have had kids.

- You don't mean it.
- No, no, let me say this.

Just please, let me just

let me just say this.

I can't do this.

I-I can't have it all.

I can't.

Maybe you will, maybe you'll have fun

but this is not fun for me.

This marriage was not fun for me.

We should have just
stayed friends and had sex

and that was it, but
no, I had to get married.

I had to stand in that line

and I had to, I had to buy the house.

And I had to stand in line,
and I had to have the kid.

And then foolishly,
I got back in the line

and I had another kid
because, "Oh, my God

you guys make such cute babies."

- Wow!
- Kara, you love your kids.

I...

I have worked my ass off

to give my kids the best

to send them to the best schools.

To make sure they had the best clothes

and they were fed, and there
was a roof over their head.

And...

But that doesn't make you a good mother.

Loving them and raising them

are two very different things.

And I feel like

I feel like I've screwed up my life.

And now I've screwed them up.

I've ruined my babies.

I've ruined my kids.

I failed.

I failed, I just failed...

[sobbing]

[instrumental music]

[knocking on door]

Oh, my gosh.

Oh, my gosh, oh, my
gosh, they're beautiful.

Thank you so much.

Oh, my goodness.

Thank you so much.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Come on, come on.

Oh, my goodness.

- Mm-hmm.
- Oh, they smell amazing.

Those witches are gonna still
think they're store bought.

Screw them, I love it.

I'm so happy, so happy.

You got them, you got them.

I got them, I got them.
You're my brownie girl.

Literally.

So, uh, you have a kid? Huh?

Mm-hmm, I have two, but
that won't be a problem.

I have great child care.

And you have a GED?

Yep, but I've basically
been doing hair...

Why did you choose that
over finishing high school?

Uh, I got pregnant.

Was that before or after
you interned at SNC?

It was before.

Hmm. Okay.

Are you looking to hire me or not?

Because I feel like you

judged me the moment I walked in here.

Excuse me?

You sell them flat
irons up in here, right?

Mm-hmm.

You want to know my experience?

I'm a black woman, that's my experience.

I spent my whole life
trying to straighten my hair

all just to fit into some stereotype

of what the magazines
tell us is beautiful.

I still know way more
about your products

than anybody on your
staff, including you.

You want to know my
resume? That's my resume.

But you didn't bother to
ask me that, now did you?

Look, you were late, so you're lucky

I still granted you the interview.

Granted me.

Okay, I was five minutes late.

I called and you said it was okay.

Yeah, but this is a business.

Look, I can't have people
showing up late for work.

[sighs] Okay.

Yeah.

You know what? You're right.

I was late, but it's not because

I'm black, it's because I'm a mother.

I hope you'll still
consider me for the job.

[instrumental music]

(Cece) 'Now, we are still at w*r.'

'Now, we are just one
generation up out of Jim Crow.'

'Now, the black woman is
having all those babies'

'because she was a baby-making factory'

'for a free work force, the black man.'

'He don't know how to
take care of no children'

'because he never did.'

'Now, the children of
the black man's seed'

'were cared for by the
white sl*ve master.'

'They were fed, clothed'

'raised by the white sl*ve master.'

'That's why it's so easy for
the black man to walk away'

'from his woman and his children.'

'Man, are you reading these
books you're buying here'

or you setting them on a shelf

so you could entice some ladies?

That's funny, that's good.

But it's, it's almost as funny

as all these excuses
you be having for us.

We need to retire that argument.

- It's getting old.
- No, man.

No, I am just trying
to put us in context.

With all that they have done to us

we have still been able to do

what the Native American
was not able to do

and that's survive.

We survived sl*very, Jim Crow

civil rights, poking them

pumping all that cr*cker
into our neighborhood.

Uh-huh, yeah.

Not to mention, all these
t*rror1st att*cks on us.

Now, I'm not saying

"Whoa, it's me, I was a sl*ve."

I'm saying, "Yeah, MF

I was a sl*ve, but now
you're buying my albums."

Boom.

You're downloading my documentaries.

You're spraying my perfume.

- Yes.
- Want to be up on my brand.

You see what I'm saying? You hear me.

Now you're talking, now
you're talking my lingo, okay?

Damn.

'So, um, yeah, I'm gonna bring that, um'

Sankofa thing back as soon as I'm done.

- Alright.
- Alright, nice to see you.

- Stay strong, man.
- Yes, yes, yes.

Hello.

- Hey.
- Hey.

A book store?

You extorted me for a book store?

Got to believe in something.

I believe in this.

And you think I'm part
of a dying industry.

No bull.

So why only stick me up for G's

when you clearly need more?

That's all I asked God for.

Any more would be stealing.

It stops now.

Well...

I'll politely disagree.

You see with all your fame

your wealth, your success...

... there is still one thing you covet

that eludes you and that is prime time.

You think I don't know how they

giving you the run around over there?

It's my job to know.

Now I don't care what you dig up on me.

I can still make that dream go away

with just one simple phone call to SNC.

And you wonder how so much
of society sees criminals

when they see black men and women?

Really?

You are no better than the
sl*ve master raping and stealing

from black people for
their own personal gain.

In the name of Jesus, of course

'cause you asked God.

Really, Cece?

- You're a fraud.
- I'm a survivor.

I do whatever it takes to survive.

[scoffs]

You and I, we're similar

in that way.

[telephone rings]

(female # ) 'Mr.
Montoya here to see you.'

Yeah, send him up.

- 'You got it.'
- Thanks.

I don't think it's fair to you.

(Gael) Well, let's not make
this about me, because as far as

I'm concerned, this is great.

I thought you felt the same.

(Kara) I-I do, but

it's happening at the expense of my kids

and they deserve every bit of me

when I'm not at work.

I-I just don't think it's fair

to keep stringing you along.

I think we should move back in together.

It's the best way to cut our expenses

and I want to play a
much more active role

in our sons' lives.

So you want to be roommates?

Well, I mean, think about it.

Our house was perfect, John.

There's plenty of space for all of us.

I'll take the guest room.
I'm never home anyway.

I, I thought you were seeing someone.

I was, but I'm not anymore.

I'll do whatever it is you think is best

but, uh

my gut's telling me
this is a terrible idea.

That's because it is a terrible idea.

But I want to be

I wanna be a better
mother to our boys, John.

And I really, I just think this
is the way to do it, you know?

(Brandon) It's broke.

You broke it, Mary Jane.

It's broke?

What do you mean, it's broke?

Okay, not broke, but it's raw.

Raw? Hmm.

Mary Jane, it hurts, okay?

Good.

I'll get you some ice.

I'm tired.

- Hello?
- 'Hey, auntie.'

- 'So?'
- I got it, I got it.

I'm gonna be making $ an hour

plus bonuses, if I sell
over a week in sales.

They're starting me
off at hours a week.

Oh, that is so great, congratulations.

- 'I'm so proud of you.'
- Thank you, auntie.

You know what, we're gonna
have to flat iron our hair

and go out and celebrate.

Cut a little rug.

Oh, we can do that, that we can do.

Oh, good stuff.

- I'll talk to you soon.
- 'Alright, bye, auntie.'

Sorry.

No need for a sorry.

It was a blessing I
could be here for you.

How was your nap?

Good, actually.

So what's all this?

Cuban cigars and whiskey.

I don't get it.

My grandfather raised me.

He worked in a mortuary.

He said the only way to balance
out so much death was to live.

He would smoke a cigar

and take a sh*t of whiskey every night.

He was the most peaceful,
happy man I know.
