VIXEN DIARIES
SEASON 2, EPISODE 4:
The scene starts quickly to show a line of girls whooping and hollering around a dance studio. The camera moves more in past the line of girls to show one girl in the middle working the shit out of her hips to the song “Twerk” by City Girls ft. Cardi B. As she moves in tandem to the beat making it look easy she shows her sass and attitude with each choreographed move. Toward the end, she hits her last few steps and walks off with a mean switch while the women around her lose it cheering.
TALIA: Ok so what happened? What I miss? Pssshh naah I’m playing. So I’m Talia. A newbie. Startup. Small crawl trying to make my way in this world. My overall dream? Being a professional wrestler but what doesn’t pay the bills are dreams. Work, that’s what I do. As a dance instructor and I make a little with appearances here and there around the nation. I’ve been in a few big-time moments. You’ve probably seen me on screen walking with a round number card in my hands for Union Grand Prix. Yes sweetie, I hustle. I hustle so that my bills remain paid while I spend what free time I have putting foundation on my dream. Still even have my day job at the plasma clinic and let me tell you every animal known to man is known to go through there.
The scene returns to the studio. A few of the girls are still inside the dance studio talking and hugging Talia goodbye while she takes a look around at the interior. While walking around she takes a look at the while more of the girls are taking their leave of the building. It’s obvious something catches her eye up there before a couple drips of water hit her face. Talia quickly looks down and dabs at her cheek realizing what was catching her attention.
TALIA: Damn it all. I know that’s going to cost something.
The less than glamorous studio is one of a few saving graces for Talia. Taking another look up she walks away and comes back with a bucket look where to exactly place over the dripping crack on the ceiling.
TALIA: So it’s either overtime or overshow. I’ll figure it out after eating. I’m hungry.
The scene switches as she walks out off the hardened floor.
TALIA: I know a lot of the people on this show are established businesswomen. They know how to put their coins together and make it worth the investment. For me, I’m just trying to learn. Maybe even show initiative in my hustle to grow to bigger and better things. The more I can ante then the more I can actually work with my trainer to get better in the ring. Dancing is a joy but it’s not the dream and as good as I am at it I guess I could make more than a decent living off of it but doing that would mean I’d never make the ring. I’d never accomplish that dream. I want to make it and I have to. Then again the ceiling will certainly set me back a good amount of training days. Also, side note...I eat a lot more than my size suggests so get used to that.
The scene fades from her confessional view as she lightly laughs and reopens in Katch’s beautiful home, Katch is seen in the kitchen with a loose pair of red pajama pants, and nike slides. Small traces of flour is seen on his chest, cheek, and hands. His daughter Kali enters the room with an iphone in her hand.
KALI: Daddy, is breakfast almost ready?
KATCH: Yes baby it’s almost ready, but I need to finish cleaning up and making my two ladies their plates. So head back into the other room and I’ll let you know what’s up alright honey?
Kali nods and taps the phone a few times before heading into the other room. There you see Mia sitting on the couch, Kali comes and plops down next to her resting her head in Mia’s lap.
KALI: I hope it’s good this time, I did like you said and kept the phone from him this time.
Katch is scene stroking his beard.
KATCH: Okay now look, I know it seems pretty early to be having my daughter getting to know some woman. But I trust Mia, not to mention Kali does too! Since she first met her she’d be following Mia around. Was cute.
Katch catches himself daydreaming and switching back his focus.
KATCH: Plus Mia fine ass ain’t going nowhere, no time soon on bloods…
The scene cuts back to Mia and Kali.
MIA COCAINE: Good because this is our time.
MIA COCAINE: Kali was so cute to me and honestly meeting her this early wasn't a bad thing. I guess if I was going to be in Katch's life then I needed to know all of him, even if that meant meeting the family.
The scene cuts back to the three at a white marble table near the kitchen area.Katch places each of their plates down in front of them before his own.
MIA COCAINE: But what's on the agenda today? Is this a stay at home and eat junk food type of day or finding something to do out in the world type of day?
KATCH: Maybe a little bit of both yeah. I know after I take Kali to her moms, we can get lunch or something then come back and bick it here.
KALI: No fair, I want to stay with you and Mia today though. I don’t want to go to nana’s house.
Katch starts to laugh, but at that instant a knock at the door cuts the laughter short. Katch gets up and heads to the door but as he yells “WHO IS IT?!” the doorknob twists and the door swings open. A curvy woman waltzes into the room and scans around before noticing Mia and Kali and the three plates.
FE’LICE LOVE: Oh where my plate at Chocise?! Nah but Kali come on baby it’s time to go.
HiKATCH: Probably would of got some if you called before just barging in on our breakfast nigga.
Fe’Lice stares a hole in the back of Katch’s head as he closes the door, locking it and heads back to the table.
FE’LICE LOVE: Mh-hm, so aren’t you going to introduce me to the new chick around you have around my daughter?
FE’LICE LOVE: Of course I know who the hell she is, she comes to Whipped all the time. So I’ve seen her around. But I just like getting under Chico’s skin, I really have no beef with the girl but, if she plans on being around my Kali I am going to have to have a woman to woman with her one day. It don’t have to be soon… She might not even last chile but Katch do seem serious so when that time comes we’ll handle that.
Fe’Lice flips her bangs from her eyelashes and smiles. The scene cuts back to Katch who’s standing in front of the table next to Mia. Katch sighs.
KATCH: Kali, go get your stuff baby.
Kali nods and takes another bite before hopping up and heading upstairs. Katch turns around to Fe’Lice.
KATCH: Mia, this is Kali’s mother…
FE’LICE LOVE: Fe’Lice, pleasure…
Fe’Lice walks passed Katch and extends her hand.
FE’LICE LOVE: Him saying Mia, put two and two together. I thought Mia was a new house assistant or something. Kali kept talking about you, but at least I know now and can put a face to a name.
Mia stands there for a second wondering if Fe'Lice was throwing shade or not, but she kept it cute.
MIA COCAINE: Oh no sweetie I'm more than a house assistant, but it's a pleasure to meet you.
MIA COCAINE: Look I don't know if this chick was trying to be shady or not, but if she was I wasn't going to entertain it because Kali's here and I don't want her to see me act a fool.
The scene cuts back to Mia and Fe'Lice.
MIA COCAINE: Kali is beautiful, you guys did a great job.,
FE’LICE LOVE: Well, thank you. About the only right thing Katch can do these days. Be a good father. But seriously you must be another right thing, since my daughter does seem to think pretty big of you.
Fe’Lice lightens up the mood a bit as she says jokingly. She passes off a grin to Mia and then focuses back to Katch.
FE’LICE LOVE: Okay look Chico, so Kali’s audition supposed to be downtown Saturday and I don’t think I can take her so can you?
KATCH: Stop calling me that, and I have to see what’s up. I know Saturday I’m supposed to be having some appearances. But if anything I can make a way if you really can’t do it. Don’t trip, Kali will make it one way or another. You and all that weird energy ruining me and baby breakfast though.
Katch heads over to the shelves in the kitchen pulling out a pyrex styled tupperware bowl and takes Kali’s breakfast and puts in and secures the lid before handing it over to Fe’Lice.
FE’LICE LOVE: uh, excuse you! I’m not ruining anything. My vibe was clear who’s around my daughter? Let’s not do this alright? Damn man, swear I can’t stand you.
Kali comes back downstairs with a backpack on and heads to give Mia, and Katch both hugs before heading over to Fe’Lice who’s already made her way to the door.
KALI: Bye guys, I’ll text you!
KATCH: Alright honey, bye bye love you.
FE’LICE LOVE: Bye guys!
KATCH: Shut the hell up Fe’Lice you not funny.
Katch walks to the door closing it behind them, then looks back to Mia shaking his head.
KATCH: That was…
MIA COCAINE: Fun. Kali is great and Fe'Lice isnt so bad even though she tried to throw a little shade. I peeped it but I mean if I am going to be in your life then it's only right I meet all the family.
Mia pauses.
MIA COCAINE: But first I need to know that your serious about this, and this is meaning us. I know how dudes can be sometimes, one minute their in and the next their out. And what's the relationship between you and Fe'Lice? Dudes is known for dipping in their baby mothers when shit not right with their current.
Mia playfully mushes Katch in the shoulder. Katch takes a long sigh and grins before licking his lips.
KATCH: Girl you know I wouldn’t have you up here wearing my robes with Katchins on it if I wasn’t serious. But seriously, I’m in this shit for the long run and that’s why I’m comfortable with Kali being so close to you. I don’t plan on losing you, and as for Fe’Lice? She harmless. Not harmless, but you get what I mean. Me and her got nothing going on besides making sure Kali gets the world from the two of us.
Katch leans in and kisses Mia’s cheek.
KATCH: But, you know what? We got the house to ourselves, let me hit these dishes right quick and then get to hitting something else.
Katch laughs loudly as he wraps his arms around Mia’s waist, the scene fades and reopens on the inside of “Weis Music retreat”. Cameras pan inside of studio C where, independent rapper Jesus is shown sitting on front of the booth listening to a track. There is knock on the door and he calls for them to come in. Trina peeks her head in with a smile. Jesus gets up to greet her
JESUS: What’s up girl! Get your fine ass up in here. How are you doing?
TRINA DUPREE: Hey what's good? Good to meet you in person finally.
JESUS: You too, and nothing much just listening to some tracks. What you on today?
TRINA DUPREE: So Jesus is a rapper from Charlotte who's been blowing up kinda big lately on the scene. And he does it all independently. His team reached out to me because he got ahold of one of my songs and he liked my sound. He sent me a track that he was working on for his new project and asked if i could bless it with a verse. And after I heard it, i couldn't say no. So when I found out he'd be in L.A this week, we decided to link up in person to lay something down. Word on the street is that he's a bit of a flirt. So i have to be careful with this one. Especially with Ricky acting the way he is lately.
The scene returns to the studio. Trina is shown taking a seat next to jesus.
TRINA DUPREE: This track man! That's what's up. I could not stop listening to it.
JESUS: Yeah that’s what I’m sayin! I needed someone to do it some justice, and after I heard some of your shit? I was like I need her.
TRINA DUPREE: You're too kind.
She chuckles, flipping her hair
TRINA DUPREE:I actually played around with it a little bit and wrote to it. You wanna hear it.
JESUS: Yeah let me hear something, hop yo pretty self on up and get in there.
He says with a smile causing his dimples to pop out a bit before licking his lips. She chuckles as she stands up to go inside of the booth. She places the headphones on her ears.
TRINA DUPREE: Run the beat for me.
Jesus plays the track for Trina and she jumps in on her cue. After she raps her verse she pauses to check his reaction
TRINA DUPREE: what you think?
Jesus presses the intercom button with a smile.
JESUS: Baby girl done killed it! I think I need to rewrite my verse. Real shit, hit that third bar again though. It was a little winded, other than that it was dope ma.
TRINA DUPREE: We can make that happen.
They run through the track a few more times before they feel it is perfect before Trina comes back out of the booth. She sits back down next to Jesus
TRINA DUPREE: It's nothing for me to lay down a track. I practically do this in my sleep. And im really feeling like we might have a hit on our hands. But we'll just have to wait and see
The scene returns to the two.
TRINA DUPREE: Thank you again for reaching out. I've been wanting to do a collab like this for a minute.
Jesus leans into her and smiles.
JESUS: Hell yeah, you did that. Once I heard you I knew I needed me some you. On me I mean, I mean on my track.
Jesus smiles and leans back into his seat. Trina chuckles, blushing a bit
TRINA DUPREE: Boy you play! You know what you meant.
JESUS: But do you know what I meant though?
He laughs a little.
JESUS: Nah but seriously, this is going to set some shit on fire. Glad we sharing this torch. You solid.
TRINA DUPREE: You are too bad yourself. How come you aren't signed yet?
JESUS: I had a few contracts lined up but, I told them hoes I ain’t want that. They was offering me some shit that wasn’t even going to put me up. My trap was make more than what they was offering.
TRINA DUPREE: But the trap shit aint secure. Not all the time. Somebody's gonna offer you the right deal. You got way too much talent to waste. Oh hey, did you hear anything about this showcase tonight? It's supposed to be some real heavy hitters in the building
JESUS: Yeah, that’s another reason I’m out here. I ain’t sweating no contracts though. As long as I get my fees paid for my shows and my features I’m alright.
TRINA DUPREE: And here I thought you flew all the way out here just to see me. I almost felt special.
JESUS: I made you my priority though, and we can get up out of here too if you got some spare time for Jesus.
Jesus smiles and lets out a slight chuckle.
TRINA DUPREE: Get out of here and go where?
JESUS: That part is up to you, I’m with whatever you are. What else you like to do?
She pauses for a second, considering his offer.
TRINA DUPREE: I'm kinda hungry…
TRINA DUPREE: I know i probably shouldn't even entertain this dude right now cuz i see trouble all over him. But I'm hungry. There's no harm in having lunch with my business partner… right?
The scene returns to the two.
JESUS: Then let’s wrap this up and get something up in you. So you can’t ever say I ain’t fed you. What you in the mood for?
He then stands up and adjusts his pants a bit and extends a hand to Trina. She hesitantly grabs his hand
TRINA DUPREE: Since it's your treat, my taste is a lil expensive today.
She chuckles as the two disappear out of the studio. The scene fades and reopens in Sir Gucci’s Los Angeles offices where Sir Gucci, Katch, Hussle, and Sauce had all been lounging around the top floor.
SIR GUCCI: That shit was crazy mane, swear like three or four of us got sewed up that night bruh.
SAUCE: Hell yeah mane, We saw Gucci hop in the Benz and peel out that hoe mane! I’m talkin’ mashdown SKRRT!!!
Sauce is seen acting out the scene with his arms out and slamming his foot down. The lot look on and laugh.
SAUCE: Boy I had left all the money on the floor and dipped! Hopped in my coup and peeled out too! I couldn’t even find blood! He was gone, I took it back to the Factory like fuck it mane!
HUSSLE SLIM: Got on on they asses! Haha, real shit them boys be trying me and Chico out there in LA too.
Katch: Man speaking of trying shit, tell me why crazy ass Fe’Lice popped up at the house my nigga… While Mia there!
SIR GUCCI: Shit, ya’ll still slappin skins or what?
Katch: Nah it ain’t even like that. Me and her been co-parenting with Kali for years.
SAUCE: That ain’t what we asking, we know some be brazy but it be for a reason.
Hussle laughs
CONFESSIONAL CAM
Katch: Man I swear I got the worst niggas to tell shit to. But I ain’t touched Fel in I can’t even remember how long. I’m not going to lie, her brazy ass did rock with a nigga but that chapter been closed. If it ain’t about Kali we stay in our own lane, but this shit she did with Mia not bool.
The scene cuts to Katch who’s now standing up and looking out the window.
SAUCE: Look he lookin’ outside like she about to drop down like Spiderman or somethin mane!
The lot of them laugh, Katch turns around laughing as well shaking his head.
SIR GUCCI: So she came by while Mia was there what happened.
Katch: Man she asked if Mia was the help…
All Collectively: Daaamn…
Katch: Ya’ll know Mia would of drug her ass, we in the kitchen! You know how many weapons in that bitch?!
HUSSLE SLIM: On god, Mia gave me a look that let me know on Crip she not the one. Like it twitched and all that shit!
Katch: Man if it wasn’t for Kali and me being in the direct line of fire I’m sure they would of got down.
SAUCE: Question is, if they did fight… Who you think would win? Because I seen Fe’Lice when you brought her to the Sauce day some years ago. She ain’t no punk either.
HUSSLE SLIM: Oh SETUP!
Gucci looks to Katch with his eyebrows raised, he leans back in his recliner and takes his shades off.
SIR GUCCI: Yeah now I kind of want to know now. You know them both, and obviously seen both they crazy sides. They probably tried to kill you by now.
Katch shakes his head and looks to the cieling.
CONFESSIONAL CAM
Katch is seen smiling.
PRODUCER: So who would win in a fight?
Katch: Huh? With Mia and Fe’Lice?
PRODUCER: Yeah.
Katch: Shit Fel quicker than she look but Mia would throw her shit.
The scene cuts back to Katch who walks to the table and sits down on the edge of it.
Katch: Man Fe’Lice I’ve seen fight and hold her own, she from the hood and got hella power so you can’t her out. But Mia not playing, Mia got that speed and power. She will not be denied in that one.
SAUCE: Then it’s good you didn’t let them fight, Kali would of seen her mama get mopped up her daddy house by stepmama… She’d be scarred for life.
Hussle laughs outloud.
HUSSLE SLIM: I can’t stand cuh! He crazy! But shit Katch what happened after that?
Katch: We talked a little and had a few rounds. But I knew the shit still bothered her.
SIR GUCCI: Yeah, just show her there’s a reason why she’s got keys to the whips, house and can see HER daughter whenever she so pleases. While Fe’lice has to have her dropped off, or come pick her up.
HUSSLE SLIM: Facts.
Katch: Yeah, but it should already be evident man.
SAUCE: Hoes want reassurance man! Not calling your lady a hoe or nothing, just saying in general! You know my pimpin’ tendencies drip from time to time.
HUSSLE SLIM: He right though, sometimes even if they know the deal. They just want that reassurance, so you know what to do cuh.
SIR GUCCI: But on to some money making business fellas, Fareed Wei is putting money up for a dope showcase. He wants artists from all over to come through and show some love! Performances, even some talent contest. It was a tough race but they wanted me to host it because Katch is sort of on the fence with some of the talents, and contestants.
Katch: Tell mu’fuckas to grow tougher skin. Always find a way to not like big dawg Katch!
HUSSLE SLIM: Calm down my nigga.
SAUCE: Why they ain’t want me to host?
The group look to him and then start laughing.
SAUCE: Oowee.. Ya’ll ain’t shit boy.
They all laugh as the scene fades to black and reopens inside Trill Records.
MICAH GRAY: On some real shit, that verse went in. I knew you had some fire in you, but you was holding back.
The scene opens up inside of Trill Records personal studio, Micah is shown standing behind the production booth messing around with the track he's helping Mia Cocaine produce. Mia hangs the ear phones up and backs away from the mic, she joins Micah in the main part of the studio.
MIA COCAINE: Pop that liquor open nigga, it's been a minute since we've been in the studio and this is a moment.
MICAH GRAY: I know right, niggas been busy getting this money.
MIA COCAINE: That's how it suppose to be, my checks been popping to lately, got this EP I'm working on and thank you for helping out with this project. Between you and Yeshua y'all been holding a bitch down.
MICAH GRAY: I knew you had talent from the first day I met you, so in my mind we always a team.
MIA COCAINE: I need more positive niggas like you in my life.
MIA COCAINE: Micah has been riding with me for some time now and I respect him for that. He was one of the few niggas that actually believed in me and my music. And he was fine as shit too.
Mia smirks.
MIA COCAINE: If he wasn’t gay I definitely climb on top. Ha!
Mia smiles as the scene cuts back to Mia and Micah.
MICAH GRAY: You know I have to ask, what’s good with you and the homie Mason?
Mia rolls her eyes.
MIA COCAINE: Nothing is going on, I haven’t really talked to him. I see his little social media tweets and him flirting, but I don’t feed into it, that nigga really fucked me up.
MICAH GRAY: Damn, I’m sorry for even mentioning him. I figured y’all was cool, but I have something to tell you.
MIA COCAINE: What?
MICAH GRAY: I kind of invited him to this session, I didn’t think you would mind and he’ll be here shortly.
MIA COCAINE: Then that’s my cue to roll the fuck out.
Mia rolls her eyes and the scene cuts to her confessional.
MIA COCAINE: I was so annoyed right now, I know Micah didn’t mean any harm because he didn’t know, but damn! I wasn’t ready to see Mason!
The scene cuts back to Mia and Mason, the two continue going back and forth before being interrupted by a knock on the door.
MICAH GRAY: That’s probably him.
Mia rolls her eyes as she watches Micah walk over to the door and open it and to her surprise even though she wasn’t surprised at all was Mason standing on the other side.
MASON FOX: The energy in the room just turned negative, I know Mia probably didn’t want to see me, but truth be told I was missing shorty and I was thinking about her. I knew the only way she would even see me if I was to pull up, so I did exactly that.
The scene cuts back to the three, Micah and Mason chat it up for a second.
MICAH GRAY: I’m going to leave you two alone, I’ll
Go and grab something out the vending machine.
Micah rushes out the door leaving the two standing alone.
MASON FOX: Hey Mia!
MIA COCAINE: Hello Mason.
MASON FOX: We not going to make this awkward, why you acting like that towards a nigga?
MIA COCAINE: I mean we haven’t spoken or seen each other so I really don’t know how to act, I’m still disappointed with the situation.
MASON FOX: I know, that’s why I’m here to fix it.
MIA COCAINE: It’s a little late don’t you think?
MASON FOX: Oh why? Because you moved on with that little buster ass nigga you’ve been riding around with, yo he ain’t shit.
MIA COCAINE: He’s treating me better than you ever did, I also noticed your still up to your little tricks.
MASON FOX: Nah I’ve been chillin, it’s been nothing but studio and to the crib that’s about it.
MIA COCAINE: I find that hard to believe.
MASON FOX: Things are different, you should believe that.
MIA COCAINE: l What I do know and believe is that I loved you, but you couldn’t keep your dick out of Carmen and every other ratchet ass bitch walking the universe.
MASON FOX: I made some mistakes, I’m sorry yo.
MIA COCAINE: Save me the cry me a river sob story nigga, I’m not trying to hear that. You are interrupting my studio session and I would like to get back to work.
MASON FOX: Damn it’s like that?
Mia points to the door and the scene fades to her confessional.
MIA COCAINE: I know I was probably being mean right now, but I didn’t want to fall for his shit. Mason knows what to say and do to reel me back in and I wasn’t about to let that happen.
Mia flips her hair to the side giving off a smirk.
MIA COCAINE:So If being mean was the only way to get him out my face then so be it, Bye Boo!
The scene cuts back to the two.
MASON FOX: I’ll go, but just think about meeting up with me so we can really talk.
MIA COCAINE: I’ll think about it.
MASON FOX: Can I at least get a hug?
MIA COCAINE: Your pushing it. Bye!
Mia points to the door, Mason shakes his head and walks towards the door, he takes one more look at Mia before leaving and the scene fades and reopens in Las Vegas at Nobu Hotel, the scene fades inside the crowded hotel showing off it's beauty, the scene then fades into one of the penthouse suites where Kylie and North are shown inside talking. Kylie walks over to the mini bar and starts making drinks while North is shown fixing her hair in one of her mirrors.
NORTH WINTERS: What time will he be here?
KYLIE FOX:He text me and said he would be here in a couple minutes.
NORTH WINTERS: Are you sure about this though? I mean we ran into him at his club you weren’t to happy on seeing him and now all of sudden your thinking about doing business with him, that’s random if you asked me.
KYLIE FOX:It’s business, sweetie stick around me and you’ll learn a few things about business. I don’t have to like the person I work with but if it’s going to bring me money then why not? Plus my other business partner is handling things with his personal life and I don’t want to bother him about another club.
NORTH WINTERS: I guess girl, I just don’t want you to get caught up with someone you have bad history with.
KYLIE FOX:I wouldn’t say we have bad history, we just had one incident that kind of broke the friendship, but before that happened we were always good friends.
KYLIE FOX:So I’ve been in Vegas a couple days now handling some business, I decided to bring North with me because she wanted to hang out and kind of learn about the club business so I thought it would be a good idea for her to tag along and show her how a real boss works. Funny thing is we were at a club the other night and ran into someone I thought I would never see again.
Kylie smirks, flipping her hair to side.
KYLIE FOX:James Shark! Ha, hilarious right? Now if you don’t remember, about a year ago there was this huge fight that broke out on social media that involved Shark, his ex, and few of his mistresses I guess you could say. Now even though my name wasn’t involved, it was girl code that I stuck by my friends and I did exactly that. The thing is, we never really had a problem and the club I was in is actually owned by Shark himself. So I put two and two together and since I’ve been thinking about opening up a club in Vegas, I thought it would be a good idea to talk with him and see what he thought about opening a club together.
The scene cuts back to Kylie and North.
NORTH WINTERS: I just know what I’ve heard and seen but honestly he’s just like any other man, obnoxious but in a cute way.
KYLIE FOX:Well this is just business, that’s it.
*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK* The two ladies are interrupted by loud, banging on the door. It startled them because the way the person was knocking as if it was a huge emergency.
KYLIE FOX:And here we go.
North walks over to the door and opens it, she lets James in.
NORTH WINTERS: And we meet again Mr. Shark!
KYLIE FOX:Hey James!
James can’t help but rudely push past the two women and rush his way inside.
JAMES SHARK: Call the fuckin’ ambulance yo
He says in a frantic tone. He rushes to the very end of the hall and paces. He looks over at the mini bar then at the couches. He looks all around in circles before rushing into the bathroom, swinging the door open and grabbing one of the towels. As the ladies cautiously follow behind him in a confused manner, they watch as he takes off one of his shoes and begins to scrub it dramatically.
JAMES SHARK: Grandma from motherfucking hell yo. She was mad I ain’t hold the elevator for her. I told her, yo, I look like I know how to hold a motherfucking elevator? She was so damn mad. My God. The whole elevator ride with her was terrible. She had to have farted like three times. I was suffocating. Then when this saggy ass bitch get off her stop she step on my shoes?? You can’t tell me that was an accident. Stepped on my goddamn shoes, looked me in the eyes while she did. You know how much these is? There’s only two made in the whole world, this one and shit.. I think the other one got lost on that Malaysian flight. These the first time I wore these too. Shit how they look!??
He finishes scrubbing the one pair and then shoes it to the two ladies.
KYLIE FOX:Typical Shark behavior, he’s so dramatic.
The scene cuts back to the three inside the room, Kylie rolls her eyes and walks over to the couch and sits down, North joins her.
KYLIE FOX:I’m sure the little old lady didn’t mean any harm, plus she’s old so I’m sure it’s hard to hold gas in.
NORTH WINTERS: That’s disgusting.
KYLIE FOX:Anyway, thanks for finally showing up. There’s drinks and food on the table if needed but I would like to get right to business if you don’t mind.
JAMES SHARK: “Uhhh. Yea. I’d like to get right to business too KYLIE FOX but yall aint tell me how the kicks be lookin’. Damn. This important.
He waves his pair of shoes that he had just cleaned in the air for both of them. They both look at him blankly and he just sighs and shakes his head.
JAMES SHARK: “Ah forget it.”
He stomps his foot upon putting it on and walks over to them all grumpy. He walks over to the couch they are sitting in and forces his way into the middle, putting his arms around the two.
JAMES SHARK: “Aight. Business. Bet. Lets start wit’ the numbers. Numbers is key.”
His expression then changes. He sniffs at the air.
JAMES SHARK: Damn one a y’all smell good. It’s North ain’t it. North it’s you right. Or is it you Kylie. Damn what is that? Hint of strawberry?
KYLIE FOX:Stay on topic boy.
NORTH WINTERS: Uh, it’s me! It’s Saint Laurent but for women!
North winks at Shark.
KYLIE FOX:Oh God! Focus y’all. I smell money and this deal and new club venture would bring in a lot of money, since you have experience with the clubs here in Vegas I thought it would be a good idea if we both invested and ran it together.
James is all smiley faced at North but pauses and blinks some before turning his head to Kylie. He removes his arm from around her shoulder and eyes her.
JAMES SHARK: You said what? Both invest. Both run it together? Did I hear that right.
He turns to North.
JAMES SHARK: North I hear that right!?
He smiles all big and North. It seems that she would have to leave the room at this point for James to actually focus.
NORTH WINTERS: Yes you heard that correctly, but your not owning it with me but with Kylie, I plan on owning my own bar by myself.
KYLIE FOX:Yeah okay, listen I can have my lawyers send your lawyers the numbers and all that in the morning, I just wanted to see if you would be on board.
Kylie grabs ahold of Shark’s band caressing it but in a friendly manner.
KYLIE FOX:It would mean a lot to me if you did this.
James looks down at their hands and nods. Shrugging his shoulders some.
JAMES SHARK: Jokes aside. I’d be open to it. Wild cause we just made up like, shit, what? An hour ago? Business a serious thing to get into. Especially if you doin’ it with a partner. But shit. Once our lawyers get in touch, we can look everything over and talk about how this could work and such.
KYLIE FOX:That is true but remember we were close before our fallout and until that happened I never gave you a reason to not trust me.
NORTH WINTERS: Just do it Shark, do I have to twerk for a yes?
North bursts out in laughter as she starts to stand, but Kylie grabs her arm and pulls her back down.
KYLIE FOX:No, it won’t be any twerking. Running it pass the lawyers won’t be an issue. I appreciate you even thinking about doing this with me!
JAMES SHARK: Damn I wanted to see some twerkin’ tho. Let’s fuckinnnn’ gooo North.
He laughs, clapping some, before turning to Kylie.
JAMES SHARK: Fo’sho tho. Could be a good idea. Like I said I’ll get the lawyers to look it over and we’ll go from there. I’m just a lil hesitant cuz I had like two business wit’ Madison and the whole thing went south after the whole blowup.
KYLIE FOX:Sorry to her about that, I haven’t talked to Madison in a while so I don’t know what’s up with her but your issue with her was something separate from mines so, if your good then I’m good.
Kylie looks at Shark.
KYLIE FOX:No pressure love, whether your on board or not it’s still something I plan on doing, but us together with our names on this club could mean BIG MONEY that’s all I’m saying.
Kylie looks down at her phone and then back at Shark.
KYLIE FOX:Anyway sorry to cut this short but I have some other business attend to. I guess call us later maybe we can talk more over dinner.
JAMES SHARK:Over dinner huh? Thought you hated linkin up with food cuz of the way I be eatin.
NORTH WINTERS: Maybe you’ll get that twerk later.
JAMES SHARK:WHHAT??
James eyes pop open and look at North as the two just laugh.
KYLIE FOX:Come on girl.
Kylie grabs North’s hand and the two hug Shark and leave as the scene fades and reopens on the inside of Angelica's Vegas loft. Angelica is shown walking from her master bedroom toward the marble staircase leading to the front door.
ANGELICA WARD: I'm coming, I'm coming!
Angelica proceeds down the stairs to the door. As she opens it, a tall man, dressed in a black pinstripe tailored suit is shown standing on the other side of the door.
ANGELICA WARD: I moved to the states at a very early age. I was adopted by my parents when i was there years old. I never really got a chance to get to know my biological family, outside of my grandmother. She always sent me letters and pictures. That was my way of being close to them. But of course, after she died, the letters stopped coming, and all that kept me connected to who I was, just disappeared. And for a long time, i just accepted that my new life was just that. But as time went on i just had so many questions. I wanted to find someone from my birth family. I had to. So I hired a private investigator to do some searching. And I'm meeting with him today to see what he found!
The scene returns to Angelica's home. She invites the investigator in and leads him toward the kitchen.
ANGELICA WARD: Can I offer you something to drink?
PETER THOMPSON: Please! Ice tea? If you have it?
ANGELICA WARD: Absolutely.
Angelica walks over to the fridge and grabs a glass pitcher. She then walks over to the cabinet to grab a glass. She pours him a glass and walks kt over to him. Then takes a seat at the bar stool.
ANGELICA WARD: I'm so glad you could make it today. My schedule has been so crazy. I'm working on opening a new club. And I've barely had any free time.
PETER THOMPSON: It's quite alright Mrs. Ward.
ANGELICA WARD: Please, call me Angelica.
PETER THOMPSON: Absolutely, well Angelica, I have quite a bit of information to share with you today! I think you'll be quite pleased with what we found.
Angelica smiles, eagerly awaiting to hear what he has found
ANGELICA WARD: I’m so excited!
PETER THOMPSON: Well let's get right into it then.
He pulls his briefcase tl the table and pulls his laptop from it. As he opens the computer and puts in the password, he opens a folder containing a bunch of information for her.
PETER THOMPSON: Well of course our first route was to connect with the adoption agency to find your mom and dad. But as you're already aware, they are both deceased. But…. I was able to find your sister through the same agency.
Angelica pauses, shocked at his response
ANGELICA WARD: My sister? I wasn't aware that K had one.
PETER THOMPSON: Oh. Wow! Well it says here, uhhhh, her name is Angelina. She still lives in Nicaragua actually.
ANGELICA WARD: wow...That's one thing mi abuela left out of the letters she sent me.
PETER THOMPSON: Oh I'm glad you said that.
He reaches into his briefcase and grabs several envelopes.
PETER THOMPSON: I reached out to Angelina and she gave me these. She said it was about time you got these.
He hands Angelica the envelopes. Nervously, she takes the envelopes and begins to examine them. Immediately, she tears up as she recognizes her grandmother's handwriting.
Angelica wipes a tear from her cheek
ANGELICA WARD: I never thought I'd see another letter from her. It's so crazy because i only knew her as a small child. But as i got older and we began communicating back and forth through mail, I started to feel like I had her right beside me. We told each other everything. So i was shocked to know that this was something she left out. But there had to be a reason. And maybe the answer to that is in these letters.
The scene returns to the two. Angelica is shown reading the letter with tears in her eyes.
ANGELICA WARD: I have a sister! And she wants to meet me.
PETER THOMPSON: She's very excited. She's wanted to meet with you for a long time. But she was afraid you wouldn't want to see or hear from her. I have her information and she gave me permission to share it with you. Would you like to call her? I'm sure all this would be better coming from her.
ANGELICA WARD: You mean right now!?
ANGELICA WARD: This is all happening so fast. I didn't know what I was expecting from this. I didn't think he'd have much to give me. And i was so busy preparing to get let down, that I never prepared myself for if the actually found anything. I'm really about to call my sister! Twenty minutes ago i didn't even know she existed. This is so crazy.
The scene returns to the two. Angelica is shown dialing a number on her iphone. Moments later, a woman picks up on the other line
ANGELINA LOPEZ: Hola
ANGELICA WARD: Hola. es esta angelina?
The scene fades to black.
