My fault, Zeke.
Was I too loud?
No, you were too long. Look,
coaches are arriving soon. It's time to go.
You're flying into West Georgia Regional,
and I reserved you a pickup truck.
A pickup? I told you a Benz.
Yes, but this is the South. A truck?
A truck says, "Honey, I know the rules and I play by them."
Hmm. Okay. I see you, baby boss.
All right, but next time, Benz means Benz.
- Now say it with me. -Benz means Benz.
Mm-hmm.
You been at it for five hours, Jay.
Yeah, you just as hungry as you was in high school.
I try, man.
I used to be that hungry.
Yeah.
No offense, Zeke, but you don't look like
you been that hungry in a minute, bro.
- Oh, well, you got jokes.
Look, on the real,
training camp's starting soon,
it's the last day I can let you in.
- Come on, man. - Gotta find a new gym.
What--what if I come midnight to three?
No can do. I need this job.
No, I--I appreciate it.
Thank you.
Bye, Zeke.
Oh, and your Mack Attack Study Sack.
In there there's a tablet
with videos, all things Keith Kincaid
from his Pop Warner days to his fishing trips
to his first birthday party.
As well as a sports drink mock-up
and peanut butter logs. Homemade.
Flight time is approximately four hours,
which means we've got plenty of time
- to go over your pitch. - "We"?
No, no, no, see, me is going to Georgia.
You are staying right here.
No...why?
The White Party is not gonna plan itself, right?
Okay. Now pick up my dry cleaning
and don't forget Malik's signed jerseys.
Oh, and I need you to clean and organize
all of my earrings.
Organize? How, by hoops and dangles?
Alphabetical.
Diamond, gold, and platinum.
Now handle your business, New School,
so you can handle mine.
You know, I'd do a better job of handling yours
if I was going with you.
Hmm. Okay.
There are two emergency exits on this plane,
so please take a moment to locate them
and then get the hell off of my aircraft.
Take your ass to work. Thank you!
For not flying Tasha Mack Airlines.
Bye bye. Have a nice day!
Don't get nothing on you, girl.

Oh, it's definitely tilted.

Perfect.
Malik, I got the jerseys,
and now I'm off to clean ear wax

- Ah. Earring duty. - Mm.
- Yeah. - Yo, good luck with that.
Good luck with, um,
whatever this is.
So, Malik, I cut the yard,
fixed the door,
the TV is perfect. Anything else?
Nah, just take care of them boxes
and you're good to go, bruh.
Yes, sir.
Hey, look, man.
I really appreciate this.
With the extra cash, I can finally join a gym.
I can train with a position coach.
Well, dawg, don't thank me. Thank my moms.
It was her idea.
Too much testosterone makes me nervous.
Yo, Malik, hit that volume.
It's Emmanuel Acho. I think he talking you up.
...and I gotta be honest:
Malik Wright is an embarrassment.
Players don't get ownership chances like this often.
And when they do, it's Malik Wright?
A paraplegic-punching, womanizing,
immature playboy?
Playboy? Who the hell you calling a playboy?
Hear me when I say this:
this experiment is guaranteed
to humiliate Black folks everywhere.
Is this really the face you want of Black ownership?
My answer? An emphatic, resounding,
unapologetic no.
And don't tweet at me, don't DM me,

So Mogulmagazine has got to rank me higher
than 14 this year.
All right, y'all got Oprah at number one?
You need to compare those résumés,
'cause Tasha Mack whoops Oprah Winfrey's ass
all day long and then twice on Sundays.
Well, it sounds like you're intent on reaching
the top of our 100 Most Powerful Women's issue,
and frankly, a little obsessed with Oprah.
Don't confuse obsession with inspiration, okay?
And my inspiration is going down this year.
- Garret. - Yo.
A lion don't smash the same lion
his whole damn life, so why the hell should I?
That wasn't the subtext of the podcast.
Oh, well, what was the subtext of the podcast, Idris Elbow?
It was about abstaining from sex.
Or any ejaculation, for that matter.
- Hmm. - Have you seriously
never heard of No Nut November?
- No Nut what? - November.
Why would anybody intentionally abstain
from the most pleasurable act in existence?
That's why God made women,
and He wanted them to have fun, too,
so he created me.
Because they want emotional clarity,
willpower, intellect.
MALIK: Blue balls?
You talkin' about No Nut November?
- Oh! Not you too, man! - Yes.
It's a thing. It's a thing.
It's not even November.
- Oh, it's here. - Wh-What is?
Well, you said you hated your furniture,
so I ordered a few pieces to, you know,
828 Style this place up.
- Surprise. - Oh!
My stuff is kinda old.
I'm pretty sure my grandma invented sex on that couch.
Ew.
- Abuelita. - So...
- how should we arrange it? - I would love to,
I just--I really have to finish this song.
But I trust you. Just make it your home.
This is Brittany.
Name another Black person, all right,
that has signed a number one
overall drafted white quarterback.
You can't!
All right, this my Jackie Robinson moment, girl.
So you're saying that you've officially signed Keith Kincaid,
a player that many are calling the next Peyton Manning,
and I can quote you?
Hell, you can chisel it on Mount Rushmore.
I might be the first Black person there, too.
- Okay?
Oh, excuse me, Kate.
I'll be back in two shakes of a lamb's tail.
- This better be good. -Tasha,
Keith Kincaid called.
He's canceling his meeting.
He's signing with somebody else.
The hell he is. Okay, look.
Don't nobody cancel on Tasha Mack.
I need you to get me his address, okay?
- I'm on it. - Thank you.
Hey. I'm sorry, Kate. Now where were we?
You were channeling Jackie Robinson,
and I was just about to quote you.
You know, we just might want to put that on ice
for a minute, okay? But, uh,
the Tasha Mack Agency will be singing Keith Kincaid.
My career highlights to get into Baltimore:
I had five sacks, ten tackles,
- and an interception. - Oh.
And you think that's because you were backed up.
Hmm?
"No Nut November:
How I Took My Life Back in 30 Days"?
What else you got up in that hobo sack? A Walkman?
An MC Hammer cassette tape? Huh?
Just remember: The squirrel with no nuts

Ah! Well, the squirrel with no nuts is stupid.
And eventually he gonna starve to death.
Whoo! All right.

Ah, familiar with the gentleman's game, eh?
Oh, yes, sir. I played back in high school.
Back-to-back state champs.
Oh, you might want to join us at the Owner's Open.
Might learn something watching me
chop it up with the one-percenters, huh?
Might also not.
No, I would definitely love to,
but I can't wear this.
You don't have to wear that, man.
I got something for you. And listen,
if you come, you better be a fly on the wall.
I don't want to hear a peep out of you, bruh,
and don't you bring your ass down there
- and embarrass me, okay? - Yes, sir.
All right, man.
Boom! That's what I'm talking 'bout,
and I nutted this morning for breakfast.
I call it Jizzing in July.
Ah! Ah! Ah!
Huh? You like that?
Thank you.
Hey, girl.
What the hell did you do?
You know, I thought I'd 828 Style the whole place up.
Girl, look.
See the color scheme? You see?
It's the whole seaside vibe that you love!
Yeah. Where's my stuff? My coffee table?
That old foot locker you said
you would get rid of since college?

El DeBarge, man! Like the singer!
Malik, they didn't call my name on the list.
Yeah. That's 'cause you're not playing.
Hey, fellas...
Y'all remember Jamison. He's my caddie.
You gentlemen didn't bring caddies?
Mine couldn't make it. He got stuck in 1965.
Why would you bring me if I'm not playing?
Relax, "Beggar" Vance. Listen, you got one job today
and that's to make me look good, all right?
Easy money.
- Easy money. - Easy money.
Where is he? Where is he?
Aha!
There's my white whale right there.
Oh, I see you.
Miss? What happened to the stuff inside the trunk?
Raquel? What the hell was in that trunk?
A yo-yo.
A yo-yo?
Raq, I will give you $100 Cash App
so you can have a trunk full of yo-yos.
Wow, you really think money fixes everything.
No, just everything yo-yo-related.
And why wouldn't you? If my parents bought me
something shiny or new every time I lost something,
that would make me a narcissist, too.
I'm sorry, okay?
I'm sorry I threw your things away,
but, Raquel, it is a yo-yo.
A yo-yo my mom gave to me, that means everything?
Don't you have anything in your life
that you would do whatever to protect it?
Of course not.
How could you when you're constantly running away
from everyone and everything that even tries to come close?
Not right now, Mom.
Exactly.
What do you say we make this interesting?
Oh, easy, Malik. I smell a setup.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, I'm all about
making things interesting, Colonel.
Let's, uh-- let's go with 5 Gs a hole.
Well, that's interesting for a player.
Owners play for 100 grand a hole.
Oh, shit. Oh, you wanna make it real interesting? Okay.
Okay, let's do it.
- Mm-hmm.
Cash transfers only, son.
- Get your popcorn ready. -Ha!
Popcorn's already ready.
Been popped.
It's gonna be an interesting day, Malik.
Yep.
That's $1.8 million.
Keith Kincaid!
Tasha Mack. We need to talk.
I'm sorry you came all this way for nothing, Ms. Mack,
but, like I'd already told your office,
- I'm done taking meetings. - Okay, no offense, but
I didn't fly four hours and drive my Black ass
all the way through Klan country
to take no for an answer.
Look, I understand, and I respect your hustle, ma'am,
but my mind is made up.
Oh, I respect that you're calling me "ma'am," son.
But I'm not going anywhere
until I get that meeting you promised me.
All right, well, if you're staying,
go ahead and grab yourself a bucket.
Rosie ain't gonna milk herself.
You expect me to milk a cow?
Oh, no, ma'am. No, I expect you
to get back in your little rented pickup right there
and then you can fly back to
wherever it is you flew in from.
Give me that damn bucket.
Rosie? Come on, heifer.
Aah!
You see it?
So, Garret.
What do you do with all that money I'm paying you?
Well,
I've bought a fair amount of zero-coupon bonds
to set aside for my nieces and nephews
to attend university.
You don't seem like a guy to invest in zero bonds.
I take risks on commodities that become more valuable
as they mature, Colonel.
Yeah, the market's on fire right now.
Oh, as in burning down.
It plummeted 300 points, which means it's time to buy.
Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying.
It's time to buy.
- Real estate. - Real estate.
Good call. I'll double my profit this year
with the Fury and dump a big chunk of that into real estate.
Well, that's quite a chunk, Colonel,
considering you did 2.5 billion last year.
I mean, if you believe "Forbes," that is.
- You're a subscriber, right? - Yeah, yeah.
Well, listen, I bought up Bitcoin.
It's the money of the future, am I right?
Oh, you really shouldn't deal in volatility, Malik.
Listen to him, Malik.
Garret knows what he's talking about.
- Hey, Malik. - Oh.
I found your balls.
What?
Got the genes of a pro athlete.
What'd you expect?
Is it-- what is that? What is that?
Oh!
Steady on, Malik.
How much are you down to the Colonel already?
He's down 300K.
That's a whole house, where I'm from.
Bruh, owners don't have losses. We have write-offs.
Right, but if you actually want to win this hole,
you might want to use an iron.
Dawg, I'm trying to be aggressive.
I'm down a whole house.
Yes, a cheap, broke-down-ass house,
but it's still a house.
Remember the Dallas playoff?
When you could've scrambled, but you checked down
to the running back and got the first down?
And the next play, you won the game?
Yeah.
So put the driver down,
use an iron.
You better be right.
Trust me, just try it out.
Okay?!
- Ha! - Bollocks!
- Whoo!
That's what I'm talking about, man, yeah.
I can't believe it! Where is my shit?
Look, I'm sorry. Okay, I--really, I didn't know--
- Stop. - I didn't know!
Brit, you know, we didn't have a lot when we were growing up.
Always moving, always leaving something behind.
But my mom always made sure I had that stupid toy.
She said it represented her love for me.
In life I may have highs and lows, ups and downs,
but she'll always be there to...
to catch me when I bounce back.
Like a yo-yo.
I know it's stupid.
No.
I envy you, 'cause I don't have
a single possession I would do a dumpster dive for.
You're dumpster diving now.
'Cause you're my yo-yo.
Give me a hug, you little ashy-ass.
Oh, you want a hug from a narcissist?
I--I'm--I'm sorry I called you that.
Even though that's what you are,
I think we should chill out on the name calling.

Oh, hell no. See, Black folk,

Not even a little bit of cannabis?
Fellas, consider this a pre-victory celebration.
That's very gracious, but I think you should've let
Garret buy, since he just agreed
to a massive new contract.
Yes. But I haven't signed it yet,
and likely never will.
What are you talking about?
We have a deal.
You had a deal with Tasha,
and she's not here. I am.
We spent five years in St. Louis,
and you never once asked me to golf.
Anything to close the deal, eh?
You sure you want to play it this way?
I took you for a smart fella.
You're pretty smart yourself, Colonel,
making half a billion this year, off our backs.
That should make my demand easy.
I want to be the highest-paid defensive player...ever.
Give me a minute, dawg.
Colonel.
Owner to owner,
a defensive back will never be paid
as much as a franchise quarterback.
I say we sit his ass.
- Really? - Yeah. Oh, really.
He's our biggest ticket draw.
He's got the third best-selling jersey in the league,
and by himself, he's responsible
for 2.3 victories a season,
which means last year we wouldn't have
made the playoffs, and the year before,
we wouldn't have won the championships,
which let me move the team to Vegas
and double the value of my franchise.
But you would sit him.
Look, there he is. There he is.
Little man with the yo-yo, how much?
Ew! Y'all smell like toilet shit.
You know what? I'm-a take it.
Look, hey, hey. Came out of the same dumpster as you.
Hmm.
Twenty dollars?
Fifty.
Okay. Sold,

So what's your cash app?
Lady, do I look like I got Cash App?
Okay.
How would you like a $600 pair of shades?
How would you like to kiss my ass?
Okay.
- He's delightful. Yeah. - Yes, he is.
You know what? Um...
Watch this hustler, Raq. I'll be back.
Where you going?
I, uh... I need to make this right.
- Boy, there sure is no quit in you, Malik.
A lesser man would be crying in the clubhouse,
if they were down 200 large on the last hole.
You just gonna stand there and look stupid
or you gonna help me read this putt?
Okay, so this is a double breaker against the grain.
Obviously. What the hell does that mean?
It's just about 15 feet.
Just a little bit over your practice mat at home.
We ain't at the barbershop, fool.
Clear your mind. Own the shot.
Pressure's on him. That's why he keeps on talking.
- Mm-hmm. - He's nervous because he knows
if you can beat him...
you can be him.
- Mm-hmm. - Yeah.
Colonel, it's a double breaker against the grain.
Man, this is a tough putt.
I like where this is going.
So if I miss,
I pay double.
If I make it...
Jamison gets an invite to the training camp.
Are you bloody mad?
- Malik, what are you doing?
He's thinking like an owner.
Deal.
Damn it!
When you have emotional clarity,
you won't make emotional decisions like this bet.
Always, always put the organization first, Malik.
- This kid.
He's bad press. He'll never be part of our organization.
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa.
So what if I would've made that putt?
I knew you wouldn't.
TASHA: I got the munchies.
Think I got an emergency snack.
You like peanut butter logs?
- Do you? - Hell, yeah! I love 'em!
- Okay, well, who doesn't? - Man, my mom,
she'd always pack me a bag full of these
whenever I went fishing.
I'd throw an extra one out into the pond for good luck,
and I never came back empty-handed.
You know what? I think me and your mama,
we could've been girls.

you family.
I--I can't.
I'm sorry, I-- I can't do it.

- with a Black agent. - What? Come on! Hell, no.
That's--my fiancée's Black.
I'm--I'm down with the brown all over town.

highest-paid safety in the league,
and another one that's set to be an owner.

Yeah, that's Rock the Baby. But...
Hey, little man.
His name's Darius.
Hey, Darius.

I really should.
Come on.

but I'm sure in the end, you'll win.
Oh. Thank you, Steady.

To what do I owe the pleasure?
Tasha, Tasha, Tasha.
I thought we were friends.
I was beginning to think we could be more,
but what Garret did this afternoon
- was not very friendly at all. - What the hell happened?
What happened was, you and I had a deal,
- and Garret reneged. - He what?
Look, let's not overreact, okay?
I'll handle it as soon as I land.
Will it be handled over drinks?
Or maybe dinner at my place?
Why the hell not? Drinks, not dinner.
Book it.
Damn.
Damn, dawg, where the hell we going?
We still in Vegas?
Yes, man, we are still in Sin City,
- just a darker part. - Clearly.
Sir, you lost 400 Gs today, my man.
- Feel like I should
give you some gas money or something.
I can't lie, dawg. That shit stings!
But not as much as No Nut November.
I'm thinking about doing it.
You should. I think it'll surprise you.
Hmm. Just the thought of it makes me cringe.
Like what if I get to day six
and I have a wet dream? Like a long, slow,
soft wet dream?
Then you start over.
You know, you just work it till you win.
