Ethel, Veronica and others in “Unfinished Business”

Jonah and I are off to the playground.

Veronica

Anybody offers you candy, that's code for crack. Apple jacks, crunch 'n munch, hotcakes, jellybeans, fries, caviar, crackers, dip-- all crack. Say, "no, thank you."

Got it. I'll go tell Malik.

Veronica

Malik?

We're having a play date.

Veronica

Sounds more like a date date. I know what goes on in the playground besides hopscotch and middle-aged men jacking off. That kid's a player.

He's the best player! He showed me an old basketball game on TV last night, and I learned so much. Did you know that Chinese people can grow to be seven feet tall?

Veronica

Last night? He skipped the game?

Hey, ready to bounce, E? Hey, Ms. V.

Veronica

You don't skip out on your team unless you're lying in a hospital bed with an iv drip and a bullet in your spine.

The game last night? We didn't have no game.

Veronica

Kev said there was a game.

Nah, you got it twisted. Next game's tomorrow. Hey, let's get ghost.

Veronica

Okay.

Later, Miss V.
