Baby, you are the hottest emerging
Black woman political figure in the country right now.
Sky's the limit.
For both of us.
Mm-hmm.
[ Chuckles ]
Mm.
Wow.
[ Chuckles ]
[ Sighs ] [ Chuckles ]
Mm.
You don't get stars like this everywhere.
You know, this is something special I-I only see in places
where there's no smog or city lights.

Would you give this all up for politics?
I'm not giving up anything anymore.
I want it all.
[ Chuckles ]
You see, that's what I love about you.
Your fearlessness.
Now, I gotta admit, I'm a little scared
about what the feedback will be once my announcement goes out.
I hate that it's something you gotta think about
while dealing with the Party.
Well, we'll get out ahead of it and control what they're saying.
The Party, the sports press will think
what we want them to think.
Remember,
weset the tone.
And this?
Us?
We're a feel-good story.
The golden couple who lost themselves in the fame,
separated,
found themselves separately,
and reunited to be stronger than ever.

I swear, Charley, you --
you have such a gift with this kind of stuff.
You make it sound so easy.
[ Sighs ]
But I don't want to lean on you to rehabilitate my image.
I don't even want an image.
I just want to go about my work quietly,
contribute to a good team, enjoy the games,
and come home to you.
I don't need the other stuff.
I want people to see you the way I see you.

I only care how you see me.
I want you to be proud of me.
I'm gonna go back to California,
excel at this job,
fix up our house, and make it a home again.
Would you ever consider moving back?

My life is in St. Jo now.
I have a calling and a community here.
But long weekends in LA with you sound magnificent.
They do.

In the meantime, we're gonna have some bumps
in the road to smooth over --
for both of us.
Leave the image stuff to me?
Yep.
No time like the present, right?
Come on.

Oh, we're doing this?
We're doing this.
Oh.
