𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Walking in to see Lisa in transformation
Lisa.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Looking at her
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
You're here with me.
Trying to calm her down
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Still in beast mode
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Lisa Please.
Please, I need u.
I can't do this without u after everything I learned today about my mom.
Please.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Slowly trying to calm down
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
You're here.
Just... be here with me.
Panting
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Slowly coming out of it
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Okay.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Sighs turning back to normal
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
You're okay.
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
She's okay?
Standing behind a chair
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Caressing her arm
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Looking at her then back at Tupac
Dude,
Did I hurt u?
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Oh.
Nothing a Band-Aid can't fix.
Lisa, Hey, it's okay.
We've got a plan.
We'll test Ava serum on Stallone and...
It's just a matter of time before we test it on u.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
No.
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Uh, come again?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
I am not gonna spend my life in and out of a cage, waiting for the lab rat to tell me to get out.
Injecting myself
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Stop!
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Lisa, don't...
Running to her
What are u doing?
We don't know what this does.
What if it makes u worse?
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Or kills you?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
You think living in a cage isn't doing that?
Well, it turns out I'm monstrous enough to get out of it anyway.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
So what now?
𝐓𝐮𝐩𝐚𝐜
Now, we wait.
LATER ON THAT NIGHT ON THE JOB
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
All right. Let's go. Thanks, see u.
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
Hearing there's a crowd out front.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
There isn't out back.
Let's stick to the plan.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Kick the gun out of the gun man hand
Now kicking the gunman ass then flip him on his back
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
NYPD! Stay down!
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
And that's how it's done.
Hand cuffing the shooter
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Mr. Miller, step out.
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
What's going on?
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
You saw that shooter before anyone else.
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
That's ridiculous.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Put your hands behind your head.
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
Why?
Jake.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
You're under arrest for the attempted murder of Jake Riley.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Aside from us, u and Jake were the only ones who knew the plan to come out this way.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
You and him.
𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫
Jakey, come on, mate.
You don't believe all this rubbish, do u?
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
Shut up.
You wrote a book about me, Chris.
My death would make it a bestseller.
You tried to kill me for a book.
NEXT SENSE
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
I'm really sorry your manager lied to u.
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
At least I know what he really thought of me.
I just can't believe I had no idea.
You know, I saw him all the time.
I practically lived with him.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Don't let this change who u are.
You can't stop trusting people.
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
Yeah, trust them with one eye open.
That sounds pretty sucky to me.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Yeah, it is.
But it's part of growing up: things get more complicated.
You know, my mom, she used to say, "Forgive, but never forget."
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
Thank you.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
You're welcome.
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
I know u were not about to let me leave without saying good-bye.
C'mon, Manslayer.
Chop-chop, let's move!
Come on, I ain't getting any younger.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Oh.
Leaving early because of your new intern?
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
Pardon? What intern?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
The dude who was in your lab today while u were playing cop with Ro?
Everything cool?
𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐬
Brilliant.
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
Manslayer.
Jake Riley is not known for his patience.
Chop-chop, let's go.
Pop it open.
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Scared there's a dead body in there?
It's cool. I already checked. Don't worry about it.
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
You know, I'm digging that u are looking out for Jake Riley.
It is hot.
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
Now let's pop this chassis and quit the chit-chat, a'ight?
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Oh, my God.
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
Yeah...
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
You tricked out my squad car.
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
Yo, it's tight, huh? Check it out...
Ooh! Oh, um...
Making the whole Police department cars go off
Trying to turn it off
𝐓𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞
Hurry up!
𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫
Okay, okay.
Sorry. Sorry.
Look, I can't have my girl serving and protecting with some carbon-dated, terrestrial radio.
Besides, I can't have u forgetting who your man is.
Now, just so u know, it comes fully loaded-- with all my greatest hits.
Including a new one I think u and Detective Thomas are really gonna like.
ROZONDA PLACE
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Dad. Hey.
Thanks for coming.
𝐅𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫
Was swinging by work when I got your text anyway.
So, u left the house pretty quickly today.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Yeah.
Um...
I, uh...
It's just that I've blamed myself for so many years for what happened to Mom.
You know?
I'm the one who called her the night she died.
You know, I guess just going through her things, I... I realized it wasn't my fault.
That when we stay stuck in the past, we stay hurt.
We stay victims.
I don't want to be that anymore.
𝐅𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫
Your mother would be so proud of what you've become.
You've got her heart.
In a lot of ways I see her in u.
LATER ON AT ROZONDA MOTHER GRAVE
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Dad's getting married in a week.
He, uh... wants to start a fresh life.
He knew u had secrets.
And he tried to protect me from them.
I have to believe that... whatever u were doing, u thought it was right.
God, I want so badly to bury this, but... u left this mess.
And now I have to do everything I can to make it right.
I love u, Mom.
I love u.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
We will, u know.
Make it right.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Looking back to see Lisa standing there
You heard all that?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
A little.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Wait. The serum worked?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Yeah.
Ran a battery of tests... no more blackouts.
No more cages.
It doesn't change what I am, though.
No serum for that.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
Any suggestions on how I'm supposed to move on with my life, knowing what my mom did to u?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Rozonda.
Your mom-- she had no idea what she was getting into.
You know, that innocent people were gonna die.
Your mom was a brave woman.
You know, she... she really cared about us.
It's just, she got backed into a very dark corner.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
She kept it all from me.
She lied, and that's what I am doing to my friends.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Then it's my fault.
I'm the reason you're doing all of this.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
No, you didn't have a choice.
She did.
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
Yeah, but if I had...
I would make that same choice again if it meant that I could be in your life.
You know, I think we've lived with enough guilt.
Maybe now it's time to ease up on the past.
𝐑𝐨𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚
What if I can't do that?
𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐚
You can.
Because I'll do it with u.
