ANDY O-Oh, Mr. Sterling, Doc, uh, was hoping for a more contrite-- ANDY Um... Um... Uh, "We've heard the tape on Tmz. We do not know if it is legitimate or if it has been altered." ANDY Uh, "Mr. Sterling is emphatic that the recording does not reflect his views, beliefs, or feelings." ANDY "It's the antithesis of who he is." ANDY "He feels terrible that such sentiments are being attributed to him and apologizes to anyone hurt by them." ANDY Belle San Fran. They call it the Paris of the West. ANDY Ah.

You got agents, fixers, moles and rats. Their whole existential purpose is to know what's going on. None of them listened to that tape, because I know if they did, they would've told you what was on it. BIG BABY Makes you feel owned. BIG BABY Until the league does something about Sterling. BLAKE Sure, yeah. BLAKE All right, thanks, guys. BLAKE Hey, did you hear from Doc? BLAKE I was having breakfast with Donald. I'm kidding. I haven't eaten yet. BLAKE Dude, I'm down to destroy this racist system we work for, right after it buys me some cr pes. BLAKE BLAKE How 'bout till racism ends? BLAKE Mm. BLAKE Dude, you know I'm under a different kind of pressure. Did your lawyer call you 19 times this morning talking about contractual obligations? Did your Pr team tell you the risks of doing something America doesn't like? Donald thinks he owns us. Everybody thinks they own me. You think I like letting strangers pet me, tell me what to do? BLAKE You think I have a fucking choice? But if we don't play, doesn't Donald win? BLAKE What do you want me to do, DJ? You want me to post a black square on Instagram? BRAM Gaga already did that. BRAM BRAM I'm just gonna be real with you. Um, you're famous now, and celebrities have no business being on the cloud. BRAM But girl, you're trending. We should make the most out of it. CHRIS For what it's worth, Steph Curry said The Warriors are down to boycott, too. CHRIS He got a point. So how many games we gon' sit out? One? The whole series? CHRIS Jj give a fuck. CHRIS If we go out there, my kids gon' ask me why I'm playing for a man who smiled in my face while saying all those disgusting things behind my back. But if we let 'em take everything we done grinded for? I don't want them to see me give that up. I wanna win. I wanna win. I wanna win. I wanna fucking win! I want my ring, man. Want my fucking ring, yo. And I know y'all mad. I get that. I don't know how to square it. What you gon' do, Blake? CHRIS Damn. CHRIS Yeah Doc, I'm with that. How about y'all? CHRIS CHRIS Let's just focus. Come on, let's warm up. CLIPPERS CLIPPERS CLIPPERS Clips! CLIPPERS CREWMEMBERS DANIEL But all her snacks are low fat! DANIEL DAVID Here comes another one. It's just like The Purge. DAVID Clippers got dick stomped. DAVID I'm saying, your tape messed these guys up. DEANDRE No. Where you been? DEANDRE You think this is funny? 'Cause he basically called us a bunch of niggers, so-- DEANDRE Whole season, you talking about tuning out distractions, Twitter beefs, your girl picking a fight, but this tape is everything. Dude is literally saying that I'm a piece of property. DEANDRE And if we go out there on the court, I ma get yelled at by a bunch of White fans that paid him to watch me, and then they gon' look at us and see a bunch of Black dudes apparently cool with being owned! DEANDRE DEANDRE What do you wanna do? DEANDRE Doc, I know we had our little chat and all that, but I'm not playing. We can't be out here making this man money and he won't even admit this. DEANDRE I'm speaking for myself. DEANDRE It's not even about that. Just... I knew he felt like that. The way he'd squeeze your arm, but to hear it? DEANDRE Yeah, man. I can't play. DEANDRE Bubs, what are you talking about? Don't you think that we gotta respond to his shit somehow? DEANDRE No! I want you to agree to not play tomorrow. DEANDRE Y'all motherfuckers do what you want. I'm out. DEANDRE Yeah, I'm with y'all. But can we agree to protest or do something and not go out there, act like this shit didn't happen? DEANDRE Did it hit? You think they got it? DEJA Girl, you can put it in your own words. Just make it clear you didn't break the law. DEJA What do you wanna say? DEJA Nothing? You can't say nothing. DEJA She can't say silent on this shit. She needs a statement or people will think she's complicit. DEJA All of America saw Kim Kardashian suck a dick in her sex tape, but she went on Barbara Walters in that white pantsuit, and now she's an entrepreneur. This is the uniform of a woman on the side of justice. DEJA Okay. DEJA Oh, um-- DEJA That's it? DEJA DEJA Where are the boys? DEJA Good. Paps are out in full force. Like you got Britney Spears stashed in here satiating Lindsay Lohan. DEJA Have you been outside your bedroom? 'Cause the entourage you ordered off Craigslist has set up shop. DEJA And Sonic the Hedgehog? DEJA I thought you wanted to go to Pampered Hands. DEJA Are you gonna put out a statement? The tape came out two days ago. Don't you wanna... DEJA When did you have those made? DEJA Um... no. DEJA We don't get into 1 Oak. DEJA You're not the good kind of famous. DEJA DEJA Why won't you come out and say Donald's a racist? DEJA You are a Black woman. Why won't you say it hurts to hear him talk about us like that? DEJA There isn't a soul in America who hasn't earned from a Donald Sterling. That's the way it is. I never judged you. But if you're gonna put out a tape, let's talk about it. Let's talk about the Klansman in the room. DEJA What? DEJA Oh-ho! Right. You didn't release the tape because, let's see, if you had released it, your racist boyfriend would never take your ass back. And that's why, yeah, you are the worst possible messenger because his racist shit still isn't a deal breaker for you. DEJA Go back to guarding middle school dances, you beefy fuck! You think Virgil's gonna protect you from the Sterling s? You're feeling yourself right now, but once you get done playing roller girl, the Sterling s are gonna teach you what real power can do. Put that on a stupid fucking hat. DINING CROWD DINING CROWD DOC Send it to me. DOC DOC Yeah, this is Doc Rivers. How you doing? Um, is Andy Roeser a guest in the hotel? DOC Give out? Well, if Andy was here, you'd just put me through to his room, right? DOC I'm just wondering if that makes any sense to you. DOC I will call you every five minutes until he checks in, or you can just tell me if he has a reservation. How you wanna spend your morning? DOC Yeah, okay. Goodbye! DOC Mr. Silver. Bet you wish David Stern was still commissioner today. DOC Any idea when you're gonna make a decision as to penalties? DOC One moment. DOC So, are you thinking, what? Uh, six months? A year? DOC What is that? DOC I'll let you go. Thanks for calling! What the fuck? What's this? DOC Who took it? Who took the picture? DOC The man who's been commissioner for three months? If he launches a crusade, every owner will find himself ass up on Tmz. DOC We are on our own here. DOC Get that, will you? DOC Shit. DOC Mm-hmm. DOC No, thank you. We're not enjoying anymore. Well, we need to find Andy. DOC One: it gives me somebody to shit on. DOC And two: Donald's gotta release the statement. He has to apologize, draw the heat off my guys, and Andy has to make him do it. DOC What? We are making that decision as a team. DOC I know. I know. DOC What does that mean? DOC Whoa. DOC Look, I want the guys to decide what we're going to do. Cancel practice. Give me a private room. We'll circle up as soon as we can. No one talks to the press, and make sure no opportunistic bellboys photograph them on the way there. Let's go, let's go. Let's go. DOC Yeah? DOC I hear you. DOC Yeah. Yeah, you right. DOC But look. Donald's gon' apologize. He's gonna take the heat, keep us totally outta his shit. Knowing that, I wanna get the guys together and decide as a group what to do, okay? DOC I don't know, DJ. I don't know what to do. DOC Can't talk to you right now, man. I gotta catch you later. DOC How are you this morning, Shelly? DOC Another day in paradise. DOC Gruyere? Okay. DOC Mm. DOC Just listen and nod. Donald needs to issue an apology. DOC I want it live in the next hour. "I'm a racist, old asshole and it's no one's fault but mine." That's your first draft. Doesn't have to be poetry, Andy. I'm meeting with the players soon. I want the heat off them before they decide whether or not to play. DOC Andy. DOC DOC DOC Under our fucking logo? When are they sending this out? DOC Uh, please, can you all clear out? Give us the room please. DOC Guys, Donald just put out a statement under our logo, um, how it might not have been him on the tape. DOC I actually thought he might apologize, take some of the heat. DOC I knew that there was a tape of Donald and his girlfriend. Tmz had it. You know, I thought it was a sex tape. DOC No, I didn't. DOC Guys, I didn't hear it. I should have, but I didn't. That's on me. That's on me. Well, whether we play or not, that is up to all of you. All right? DOC All right, what we gon' do? DOC DOC You wanna give us a minute? We're having a meeting. DOC Can you give us 10 fucking minutes, please? DOC I need you to do something for me. DOC Hey, hey, hey. Guys, come on. DJ. Come on, sit down. DOC You are all correct. We shouldn't play and we should. It's an impossible choice, and we shouldn't have to make it. I wanna show you something. Look at this. DOC Jesse Owens, 1936. Nazis everywhere he looked, and he won four gold medals. DOC Tommy Smith, John Carlos, Mexico City in '68. DOC Those fists shook the damn world. We can do that, but we gotta do it like they did. We gotta win first. You wanna prove Donald wrong? You got something to say? Say it from that platform. Say it as champions. Show that you can succeed, even through the... the hurt, the insults, that nothing can stop you from winning. The world will hang on to every damn word you say. DOC DJ? DOC Ignore these fools. Let me handle 'em. See y'all in the locker room. Let's go. DOC DOC Man, I'm trying to do 20 minutes twice a day. That's what David Lynch does. You don't get the mental benefit if you don't do it. Can you at least give me five minutes? DOC This is Doc. DOC All right, listen up. Pay attention. DOC We got this. We move the ball. We communicate. We stay in the moment. We are one. DOC All right, come on. Clips on the three. One, two, three. DOC Our guys have phones. Everybody's calling 'em, telling 'em what to do, and what they usually hear is, "You need to get more shots". You know, "Doc is a terrible coach." DOC We talked it over. They came to a decision. We are going to play. DOC Our message is that we are not going to let anyone stop us from what we want to do. Our message is to play. Thanks, guys. DOC No, you talk to him! Tell me he is not coming to the game tonight! DOC Turn your fucking car around, go back to the hotel, and stay there. DOC So, get out and walk! Jump in the water! I don't care! DOC Tell him, "If you come here, I will physically-- I will physically fight him!" DOC I'm feeling very extreme! I am extremely serious, Andy! If he comes here, there will be a riot! DOC It is not safe for him here. DOC Why? Why would she do that? I mean, what is this? Shit Storm Whack-A-Mole? DOC No, no, no. No, be nice. This is an awful situation for her, too. She didn't do anything wrong. Get her some seats on an upper deck. Ask her to understand she cannot be courtside tonight. My guys are under a lot of pressure, and they don't need any further reminders of Donald today. Okay? DOC Here we go. DOC We're gonna lose. It's gonna be bad. DOC What's the hold up? Ain't you got some place to be, Coach? What's going on? Why aren't you guys boarding? DOC What are you doing, Shelly? DOC Yeah, but you have never been on the team bus before. DOC Are you daring me to throw you off? DOC Let's go! DONALD I'm sorry, too. DONALD That's not the issue. The issue is we don't have to broadcast everything. DONALD Then why are you taking pictures with minorities? Why? DONALD Shelly, you don't have to talk to them. There's no law that says you do. DONALD They're not the police! DONALD These investigators graduate 81st in their law class! They're walking Steno pads, and they work for us! DONALD Yeah. Yeah. It bothers me a lot that you wanna broadcast that you're associating with Black people. DONALD You want me to look pathetic. DONALD Taking advantage of a pathetic dope like myself. DONALD Is that it? What's with you and that toe? You're going to break it off! DONALD When you see my name on fabulous buildings all over Los Angeles, do you think "pathetic"? When I'm sitting courtside watching my team, do you think you married a sucker, or you just can't stand the thought that beautiful, young girls wanna suck me off day and night. What is that, two mosquitoes fucking? DONALD Yes, I'm 80 years old. Did you know that? She's been telling everybody. Well, what's in the envelope, Andy? Your college admissions essays? DONALD This is it. DONALD Do you see a fucking suggestion box on this table? DONALD It's my world! Read it! DONALD What is she doing here? DONALD She happens to be anywhere free food is served. DONALD Oh please. Not a neighborhood you can get into under a million, and the bums are spreading lice on every block. DONALD What's with you, a second menopause? DONALD Hmm. DONALD Was that around the time that Tim left you for what's-her-name with the gigantic rump? DONALD Oh, please, because somebody's talking on the Internet? What should we do? Hide under the covers? DONALD Who says it's me? Where's the proof? DONALD Well, I can't help it if you say something stupid. DONALD Stop! Shut the fuck up! DONALD Where's the span that fell down in the earthquake? Did they fix it? DONALD Imagine being the one sucker killed under hundreds of tons of concrete. DONALD What is all this? Why are they wearing their shirts like that? DONALD What's wrong with you? DONALD Cracked filling, he said. Oh, he drilled through my very soul. DONALD Shelly wouldn't understand. DONALD Just take the cashier s check and rub my foot. DONALD Your sister must be jealous you got the fabulous body in the family, or is she not your real sister? DONALD Isn't it funny? DONALD The vast majority of White people don't think about color at all, but you're obsessed. That stuff you put on your skin, is it to make you White? DONALD What's hard about it? You don't even look-- You don't look Black at all.

HOTEL CROWD HOTEL CROWD HOTEL CROWD HOTEL CROWD HOTEL CROWD HOTEL EMPLOYEES JAMAL Are you serious or what? JAMAL Did you know? JAMAL You didn't listen to it. JAMAL Yeah. Because if he did listen to that shit and told us it was no big deal, he either lied so we'd play, or else he really thought it was no big-- JAMAL Then let's do it. Sterling says he makes the game? What the fuck game he talking about without nobody there to pick up the ball? JAMAL Maybe more. JAMAL Come on, man. JAMAL Because people look up to us! Black kids look up to us! Or that only matter if we taking their money? JAMAL If they got it, they about to be really fucking confused when we put the logo back on to play. JJ Why are we even pretending to debate this?

JUSTINE His look when you laughed in his face. Et tu, Shelly? JUSTINE He doesn't bring out anyone's best. Aren't you just exhausted by it all? Spending your whole life orbiting the toxic octopus. JUSTINE Honey, don't cry. JUSTINE Here. JUSTINE I know you think therapy is a scam, but this is classic codependency. Tim was just like Donald. JUSTINE Take, take, take. After we split up, I-- JUSTINE Well, I-I just mean that the next time Donald straps a bomb to his chest, you can just walk away. MAC One: "The recording in question was acquired with the full and knowing consent of Mr. Sterling." MAC Two: "You did not seek or receive any remuneration from Mr. and Mrs. Sterling in exchange for keeping the recordings private." MAC V, an nba lawyer is coming here. This is not for Instagram. This is a real guy. We just need to get you through this investigation, then we are strictly no comment until we settle the Sterling s lawsuit. MAC Well, that is a Pr thing. I don't know who we are going to get at the very last minute. MAC Uh, sir, Mr. Sterling was aware that he was being recorded, and a third party was present, this young lady to my client's left.

MARK CUBAN Should we start taking steps to really condemn people for what they say in the privacy of their own home that just happens to be recorded? MARK CUBAN That's a slippery slope I don't want to get on. MATT So? Does it matter if he knew or not? MATT Doc just said we gon' make a decision as a team. Don't set yourself up as a voice for Black America. MATT Okay. Right on, brother. I mean, can we all agree if you can't say "nigga", you can't vote? MATT Yeah. Why is it on us? Shit, Donald been treating Black men like racehorses since he bought the team in '81. MATT Wanna know where I was in '81? In a fucking highchair. So don't ask us to make a statement about something that nobody gave a shit about for 30 years. Shit, why don't we ask David Stern why he never did anything as commissioner? Why don't we ask the fans why they kept buying tickets? Why don't we ask the other owners? Why don't we ask White people? MATT They don't give a fuck about fixing racism and we can't fix it-- MATT Okay, CP. One White man gives a fuck. How's that gonna-- MATT Man, we know you don't want to piss off Doritos or KIA, whoever else is paying you. MATT Yo, why do you want this nigga to be a civil rights leader so bad?

They're-- They're taking off their sweatshirts, and ball gear appears to be inside out. RALPH LAWLER These athletes seem to be saying they will not wear the team's logo tonight in protest of owner Donald Sterling's racist remarks. REPORTERS REPORTERS REPORTERS REPORTERS SETH Excuse me. Coach, we-we have requests for a quote from every major outlet. Many important or-or famous people are tweeting about Donald: LeBron, Mayor Garcetti, Donald Trump, Snoop Dogg. SETH We really-- We really, really, really need to put out a statement. SETH All right? We're trending nationally, and to just not be stating anything, it makes it look like we have our thumbs up our asses. Mm. Sorry to say "asses". SETH Why do we need to find Andy to put out a statement? What does finding Andy do? SETH Well, that is important. SETH Q-Tip. SETH So just-just dotting the I here, not a statement? So then c-can we-- I-- how about-- Well, now I'm just spitballing, but, you know, Jesse Jackson called in the team to deliver a symbolic expression. SETH Uh, flag burning is one well-known example. SETH Or we can make buttons. SETH Donald's statement. SETH Fifteen minutes ago. Everybody's waiting. SETH Don't think I can. SETH Ah, Shelly is coming, too, in a different car. SETH Uh, do you want me to threaten her, too? SHELLY Honey, it's like with the police. If you're innocent, you cooperate. We can just-- SHELLY Oh! SHELLY No. SHELLY SHELLY Oh, you know. How are you, honey? SHELLY I'm sorry. Have you eaten? The restaurant's pretty good. We had oysters last night. You're only supposed to have oysters in months with an "R". I don't know. They thrive in cold water, I suppose. Anyway, it's too early for oysters. The chef does a wonderful frittata. Mushrooms, gruyere. SHELLY Mm. I get mine with egg whites. SHELLY Andy's down there if you want to join him. SHELLY Justine! What in the world? SHELLY Oh, honey. It's Donald's birthday. We have dinner planned with Andy and his wife, a couple's dinner. SHELLY Oh, Justine. Am I happy with the situation? No, but it's not Don's fault. SHELLY Listen, I can't do this with you. I have a meeting with the nba. They're doing an investigation into VEEand how she set Don up. SHELLY They need more information about... about her past. SHELLY I wish you'd called first. This trip must have been expensive for you. Hi. Are you looking for me? SHELLY I'm so glad you contacted me. I didn't know who to call to warn the nba. This woman has been a menace. SHELLY With wealthy men, there are always predators, and this one, VEEStiviano-- I assume you know that's an alias-- she's had a whole criminal career, like something out of Unsolved Mysteries. You can Google her mugshots. She always seemed high on something. The way she danced. SHELLY Oh, honey, I would know? Whatever it was, I think she put it in Donald's orange juice. SHELLY Listen to him. Rambling about Instagram, slurring his speech! SHELLY My husband doesn't talk like that. Black, White, he loves everybody. He wouldn't have said those awful things, unless... SHELLY Is it even legal what she did? SHELLY Gaining his trust over years and trapping him, baiting him to say those awful things. SHELLY I'm sure it's illegal the way she recorded him. There must be a law. SHELLY And? SHELLY O-Oh, well, u-uh, of course. SHELLY That's it? SHELLY What are you going to do? I mean, about what VEEdid to my husband. He's an owner. Doesn't the league have to protect him in some way? Somebody can just set him up? Trick him into saying terrible things? He's 80 years old. SHELLY It's not about you, honey. It's about her, her taking advantage. SHELLY VEEis a criminal, Don! SHELLY Don, uh, you can't. SHELLY Don, no one's going to believe it wasn't you on this tape. SHELLY I invited her to join us for dinner. She happened to be in town. SHELLY Justine, over here. SHELLY I don't want you eating off my plate, and neither does Andy. That's why he ordered the slimehead. SHELLY One time, a table of eight all ordered halibut, just because Donald doesn't like it. SHELLY Like you would have a clue. SHELLY You know what I find amazing? The way we all sit here and blah, blah, blah like our whole world isn't burning down. SHELLY Well, we shouldn't live in denial. We shouldn't put out a statement saying a voice that is obviously yours belongs to someone else. SHELLY I say it's you. I said it to the investigator. You made me look like a liar. SHELLY Oh, wow. The emperor's new clothes. You walk around with your willy out, and you think everyone's staring because they're impressed. "It's my world." Eighty years old and the only people to keep him company are a fella on his payroll and a woman who made a vow for better, for worse. SHELLY Or what? SHELLY Oh, I hate the way I get with him. SHELLY SHELLY No, I... I have a splitting headache. I shouldn't have tasted the red. SHELLY SHELLY SHELLY Me and Donald aren't splitting up. Mm-mm. SHELLY Are you supposed to, um, put your purse on the floor? SHELLY Okay. SHELLY Oh. Thanks, honey. You know, I'm a Blake Griffin fan, too. I know him. SHELLY Uh-huh. Would you like to meet him after the game? SHELLY Sure. SHELLY Hi, Doc! What a rough game. SHELLY We're all going back to the hotel, aren't we? And then-- SHELLY That can't be true. SHELLY Hi, honey! SHELLY Don't worry. We'll get them game five. Hey. SHELLY SPORTS BROADCAST TELEVISION BROADCAST TY Sorry to interrupt. TY It looks like Chris going to work out or coming from a workout. TY Coach, he was in the lobby. Anybody can sell a picture to the press. TY W-What did Adam Silver say? TY DeAndre posted a black square on Instagram. Says he's not playing tomorrow. TY The guys are getting blown up. Old teammates, former coaches, their mothers and brothers. TY Yeah. Somebody heard from Q-Tip. VEE Honey, I'm sorry. VEE I wish I could change the color of my skin. VEE I'm not broadcasting anything! VEE People call you and tell you that I have Black people on my Instagram, and it bothers you? VEE I don't talk like that. VEE I can't remember all this. VEE Nothing. VEE Go to Lucy's through the back. VEE Mm-mm. VEE Thanks, but I'm just gonna wear what I'm wearing. VEE That must be the nba. VEE What do you think? VEE Um, no. VEE He takes medication for his foot. He'd had some wine. We ate at, um... What's that Asian fusion place in the Century City Mall by the cb2? VEE I would say it was a typical fight. I have others I can play for you. VEE Well, I'd been doing it for years. I have hundreds of tapes. VEE Like my lawyer said, a third party. VEE Yes. VEE Good afternoon, Miss Marks. Uh, pardon the disturbance on a Sunday. VEE I was wondering if it would be possible to reschedule the home visit without delaying adoption proceedings overmuch? If feasible? VEE Oh, um, I'll just stick with what I have then. Uh, I wanted to make sure that recent-- um, some recent publicity I've received won't negatively affect the adoption. VEE Oh, thank you so much, Miss Marks. Peace and love. VEE What do you think if I drape it like that? VEE It's referential. VEE Lucy took them to Magic Mountain. VEE I haven't been outside yet. VEE Well, I needed staff. Logistics, security. VEE This is Bram. He does Pr. Bram, could you give us a minute? VEE Our appointment's not for an hour. VEE A while ago. Put it on. VEE Know that you have been chosen to be part of something very special. This is a movement. VEE VEE Where are you going? We're going to 1 Oak. VEE I will now. Don't be upset you're not the famous one anymore. VEE There's no such thing. VEE People act like it's wrong to want fame. You think anyone who's famous didn't wanna be famous? Do you think Meryl Streep didn't want to be famous? VEE God, you're always acting like you have something to teach me, but you never did anything big like I did. VEE You were a VJ for a couple years. No one remembers you. Bram doesn't know who you are. Bram doesn't even know any of those celebrities you blew. You were hired on a show. I started something. VEE What are you talking about? Look at my Instagram. #bethechange #nohate. VEE You weren't hurt when he was buying your spicy meatballs at RockSugar. When he bought you a Louis Vuitton coin purse. VEE I didn't put it out. VEE I didn't release the tape. VEE I'm paying you. VEE David! Can you not? VEE Um, if somebody hacks me, can family court or, like, the Sterling s lawyers, can they use that or subpoena my computer files? VEE I'm the next U.S. president. VEE Why was it two hours? I thought it was only a cleaning. VEE Should we go straight to the open house? VEE Why is the money a big secret? You wanna buy a home for my family. So what? VEE But the duplex is mine, right? VEE We have the same mother. All my siblings are Mexican, but God made me Black. I never met my father. I don't know, I guess I don't... VEE It-- VEE It's hard to feel good about myself sometimes. WAITER The orange roughy. YOUNG FEMALE FAN You do? YOUNG FEMALE FAN'S FATHER What? You for real?
