Zora Banks (Sanaa Lathan) moves from Manhattan to her newly renovated brownstone in Brooklyn.

The two spend a lot of time together eating home cooked meals, playing Scrabble, and watching television.

While getting a drink with his friend Jimmy (Clark Johnson), Franklin expresses that he likes Zora because she listens and they talk more than have sex.

Zora then auditions for up-and-coming producer Reggie Baptiste (Q-Tip), and gets cut a deal to do a six-song demo with him.

Despite all the obstacles, the couple continue to fall deeper in love, but things come to a head when Zora suffers an epileptic seizure while sleeping.

A heart broken Frankie drinks and plays sad records while Zora sleeps in the other room.

Frankie then goes to the room and tries to have makeup sex with Zora, she pushes him away and says "I'm leaving and when I come back tomorrow I want you out of my house".
