1 00:00:30 [labored breathing]
2 00:00:42 [instrumental music]
3 00:00:48 [Odette] I was born in a sycamore tree.
4 00:00:59 Mama was halfwaythrough her tenth month with me
5 00:01:02 wondering if it was ever gonna end.
6 00:01:06 She didn't really see that end coming.
7 00:01:08 So, she wound up seeing a witchmy granny knew for help.
8 00:01:13 ♪ Oh, Jesus ♪
9 00:01:17 [Odette] The witch asked my mamaif she wanted her child
10 00:01:21 to be guided by destiny or by fate.
11 00:01:25 Now destiny would let meturn left or right
12 00:01:28 but fate,fate would be a one-way street.
13 00:01:33 Now that all sounded the same to mama
14 00:01:35 so the witch made the choiceand showed her the way.
15 00:01:40 But first, she had to climb upinto a sycamore
16 00:01:43 and sing her favorite hymn,only then I would come.
17 00:01:47 [Mrs. Jackson groans in pain]
18 00:01:50 [Odette] Mama said me being bornoff the ground
19 00:01:52 meant I didn't have the natural fearof falling...
20 00:01:55 [Mrs. Jackson] Hello, Odette.
21 00:01:56 [Odette] So, I was cursed with a lifeof fearlessness.
22 00:02:01 But my girl Clarice was cursedwith something else all together.
23 00:02:05 Hi, sweetie.
24 00:02:06 [Odette] She had the curseof being born to a mama
25 00:02:08 who thought if she could put ona face and play perfect,
26 00:02:12 folks wouldn't notice that she wasno more than a dadgum push over.
27 00:02:18 [photographers clamoring]
28 00:02:19 [Odette] Photographers snapped pictures
29 00:02:21 and Clarice's mamaput on a practiced smile
30 00:02:24 which she had a habit of doing wheneverher husband was nowhere to be found.
31 00:02:31 [jazz music playing]
32 00:02:33 [Odette] With Me being born in a tree
33 00:02:35 and Clarice being bornat a White hospital,
34 00:02:38 our best friend, Barbara Jean,had to do something special
35 00:02:41 to come in this world... and she did.
36 00:02:44 But not in the way her wildand loose mama expected.
37 00:02:48 [man] Hey, listen fellas, let me tell youabout our pretty girl.
38 00:02:51 [Odette] Her employer liquored upeach of the potential daddies
39 00:02:54 and got 'em bragging abouttheir women.
40 00:02:57 - [man 1] Loretta...- [man 2] Loretta, your ears
41 00:02:58 must have been burning 'cause I...see, that ain't my baby.
42 00:03:00 Loretta, what are you trying to do to me?I thought you loved me.
43 00:03:02 [Odette] It didn't take themlong to realize
44 00:03:04 that they were all bragging aboutthe same woman.
45 00:03:07 [all gasp]
46 00:03:13 [Odette] Everybody believedthe three of us coming into the world
47 00:03:16 out of the ordinarywas a bad omen,
48 00:03:19 that our painting wasn't a masterpiecebut a hot mess.
49 00:03:25 A mess that would be dictatedby destiny or by fate.
50 00:03:33 I was never quiet or funny enoughfor folks to overlook me
51 00:03:36 being a pain in the ass.
52 00:03:38 But Clarice and Barbara Jean loved me.
53 00:03:42 I thought I was put hereto love them back.
54 00:03:44 But friendship don't alwayswork out that way.
55 00:03:49 That witch had put meon a one-way street,
56 00:03:52 one that inevitably led to Clarice,Me and Barbara Jean's book
57 00:03:57 being split at the seams.
58 00:04:06 ["Liebestraume" by Franz Richter played on piano]
59 00:04:40 - [cheers] Bravo, Clarice!- [audience applauding]

65 00:04:59 [Clarice] My case is too full, Odette.
66 00:05:01 I don't know what to do with it.
67 00:05:02 [Odette] All them other piano playerswas looking at that trophy

69 00:05:07 Here you are, looking at itlike it owe you card milk note money.
70 00:05:09 Oh, you think they getmore clever with the design.
71 00:05:12 Look at this.
72 00:05:13 You need to worry about the designof that plane ticket to New York.
73 00:05:17 - Tickets.- [Odette] See, I told you.
74 00:05:19 I told you your recording dealis your mama's trophy.
75 00:05:22 Better her than mecuz I'm tired of holding that position.
76 00:05:27 Oh... Doesn't matterhow many different ways you look at it,
77 00:05:31 it's still the ugliest dress in the world.
78 00:05:36 I swear, your clothesare like virginity insurance.
79 00:05:40 Well, maybe you should have worn themto help you keep yours then.
80 00:05:43 You know, I ain't never seen nobodyswitch so fast

91 00:06:12 - with a damn mute.- James is a little shy, Odette.
92 00:06:15 And you do all that hard and gruff talkingprobably scared him.
93 00:06:20 I'm a bold woman with a big mouth.
94 00:06:22 And if James can't handleboth of those things,
95 00:06:24 well, then he can just slide onsomewhere else
96 00:06:26 because I'm not about to sit here... Ow.
97 00:06:28 - And what's it supposed to do?- Accentuates the color.
98 00:06:31 Feel like you're choking me.
99 00:06:34 It's all about the grace notes, Odette.
100 00:06:37 Ooh! When James sees you this time,he won't be able to shut up.
101 00:06:43 - Yeah, all he do is shut up.- Look at you.
102 00:06:45 - Twirl... James, come here...- [door opens]

110 00:07:02 My cousin, Veronica,says she saw her combing her hair once

115 00:07:14 [Mrs. Jackson] Odette's gonna takethis chicken on over to Barbara Jean's
116 00:07:17 to show that child some kindness.
117 00:07:19 You worried about your shoes,then go barefoot.
118 00:07:22 Scared of roaches, then step back.
119 00:07:28 Or maybe you ought tojust go on home, Clarice.
120 00:07:37 Hm...

272 00:16:12 - [Richmond] Yeah?- Is James gonna talk this time?
273 00:16:16 I mean, I gave that man a whole listof things to say.
274 00:16:19 Mm-mm. See, I ain't got time for this.

278 00:16:31 [Odette] Hey, what did Richmondpromise you?
279 00:16:35 - What?- For coming here...
280 00:16:38 He told you I was gonna let youcop a feel?
281 00:16:40 Because I won't.
282 00:16:42 He didn't promise me anything.

284 00:16:45 You just sat there last time,staring at me
285 00:16:47 like I had two heads.
286 00:16:48 Well, this is what I look like.
287 00:16:51 And if you don't like it, then you can gostare at somebody else.
288 00:16:57 I don't want to look at anybody else.
289 00:17:01 Why not?
290 00:17:03 You probably don't remember thisbut when when we were 12,

322 00:18:59 Our daughter, Lydia,moved out not too long ago,
323 00:19:01 going over to Chicago to go to school.
324 00:19:03 We ain't using the bedroom.
325 00:19:06 It's yours.
326 00:19:07 Oh, no, I couldn't possibly.
327 00:19:09 Oh, that's just your good manners talking.
328 00:19:12 Earl will go, collect your thingsin the morning.
329 00:19:15 - My stepdad...- You're welcome to stay at our house
330 00:19:17 tonight or for however long you want to.
331 00:19:23 Come on, honey.
332 00:19:31 No one's ever done anything nice for me.
333 00:19:36 Even the people that were supposed to.
334 00:19:43 Y'all don't even know me.
335 00:19:46 Well, we better get to know you.
336 00:19:48 'Cause you are our new best friend.
337 00:19:49 [girls giggle]
338 00:19:54 To your mama. Rest in peace.
339 00:19:59 No.
340 00:20:04 To The Supremes.
341 00:20:09 [Odette and Clarice together]To the Supremes.
342 00:20:17 Oh, this good, Ms. Thelma.
343 00:20:18 I can't wait to introduce youto all the boys.
344 00:20:20 [Odette] Big Earl lost Ms. Thelmanot long after that.
345 00:20:24 But it hurt us even morewhen we lost him.
346 00:20:27 The man who was the binding,
347 00:20:30 who put our beautiful book togetherin the first place.
348 00:20:35 [Little Earl] So, Daddy just diedlike this.
349 00:20:38 [Minnie] This is how I found him,Little Earl,
350 00:20:40 probably prayingabout your dead mama.
351 00:20:43 And you just now saying something?
352 00:20:45 I didn't want to call too late at night.Y'all need your sleep.
353 00:20:49 Didn't you just recently callOdette and James
354 00:20:52 in the middle of the night?
355 00:20:53 But James is an officer of the law.Is he not?
356 00:20:57 Made complete sense to me.
357 00:20:59 Claiming she saw a spirit tipping by.
358 00:21:01 Even if that mess was true,
359 00:21:03 what you want Jamesto do about it?
360 00:21:04 Handcuff Casper?
361 00:21:06 Minnie, you should have called us.
362 00:21:10 [Odette] Oh, Earl.
363 00:21:15 Minnie.
364 00:21:17 Hm?
365 00:21:19 Where did you sleep last night?
366 00:21:22 In the bed, where else would I sleep.
367 00:21:24 - In the bed?- On the couch...
368 00:21:26 The couch aggravates my sciatica.
369 00:21:27 But a dead man on the side of your bed
370 00:21:30 just lulls you to sleep.
371 00:21:32 - [door closes]- [footsteps approaching]
372 00:21:35 Hey, James.
373 00:21:36 [James] Hey, y'all...
374 00:21:38 the coroner's gonna behere in a few minutes
375 00:21:40 to take Big Earl away.
376 00:21:42 [Little Earl] Thanks, James.
377 00:21:43 [Minnie wails]
378 00:21:47 Oh... Lord...
379 00:21:49 Now she upset, now she's distraught.
380 00:21:54 [Minnie continues crying]
381 00:22:04 [Odette] Hey, Lester.
382 00:22:06 [Barbara Jean] Hey, baby.
383 00:22:07 [Lester] Hey, it's okay, Barbie...I'm sure Big Earl didn't suffer.
384 00:22:12 Take solace in that.
385 00:22:13 But I'm suffering.
386 00:22:15 Ms. Minnie, listen,let's go back to the diner.
387 00:22:18 I'll make some tea.
388 00:22:20 Get you calm down.
389 00:22:21 Oh, don't pretend you care.
390 00:22:23 You have wanted me out of the way
391 00:22:25 ever since I married your daddy.
392 00:22:27 [Veronica] Ms. Minnie. Oh, Ms. Minnie.
393 00:22:30 Oh, I am so sorry, Lord,I knew something was wrong
394 00:22:33 when you didn't show upfor our reading.
395 00:22:35 Is this old flake still doing readings?
396 00:22:37 - Yes, she is.- I heard that, Clarice.
397 00:22:40 Veronica, please stop encouraging Minnieand her foolish readings.
398 00:22:42 This is not foolishness. I met a manand I need to know if he's the one.
399 00:22:47 Well, Veronica,you don't need no fortune-teller.
400 00:22:49 All you got to dois look at your past.
401 00:22:53 - God can hear you.- [Odette] Good.
402 00:22:54 Because he gonna tell youthe same damn thing.
403 00:22:56 My spirit guide, Charlemagne,came to me this morning.
404 00:23:00 Mm.
405 00:23:02 He said that I would be following Big Earlto the grave in the new year.
406 00:23:07 - [Veronica gasps]- In the new year.
407 00:23:10 I am on my way to my great reward.
408 00:23:15 And nobody here cares what happens to me.
409 00:23:20 Oh, I care.
410 00:23:21 - Oh! I can't. I can't.- [ambulance siren wailing]
411 00:23:23 - Let me go...- Alright, go on.
412 00:23:25 You're just a bunch of non-believers.
413 00:23:29 [Odette] You're gonna beall right, Minnie.
414 00:23:31 I'm coming, Big Earl.
415 00:23:37 - Y'all heard about Earl.- [woman] Sorry for your loss, y'all.
416 00:23:41 [woman 2] God bless his heart.
417 00:23:45 - [man 3] He was a good man, Earl.- Alright, Charlie.
418 00:23:54 Give me that. Thank you.
419 00:23:57 Sleeping with the dead, spirit guides.
420 00:24:00 - I just can't.- I still can't believe Big Earl gone.
421 00:24:04 I mean, he was sick...
422 00:24:06 James had higher blood pressurethan Big Earl.
423 00:24:09 It's hot as hell up in here.
424 00:24:10 It's November, Odette.
425 00:24:13 Can't nobody be hot in November?
426 00:24:16 I told you.You're going through the change.
427 00:24:19 Y'all might be about to turn 50,but my uterus is still 22.
428 00:24:24 Your uterus about to beat youinto the next century.
429 00:24:26 - [Barbara Jean] That's right.- [Clarice] We telling you,
430 00:24:28 you're going through early menopause.
431 00:24:31 [muffled wailing]
432 00:24:33 [Minnie screaming and crying]
433 00:24:35 [Clarice] She crazy as hell.
434 00:24:37 - Ms. Minnie sure can put on a show.- Oh, yes, she can.
435 00:24:42 Whole thing.
436 00:24:44 [bell ringing]
437 00:24:47 [Clarice] Richmond, we're gonna be late.
438 00:24:50 [Richmond] Mm-hm. [laughs]
439 00:24:54 [both moaning and laughing]
440 00:24:58 [both breathing heavily]
441 00:25:12 [phone ringing]
442 00:25:14 [shower running]
443 00:25:18 Hello.
444 00:25:22 Hello.
445 00:25:29 - Hello.- [Richmond] Who is it?
446 00:25:31 [phone disconnects and beeps]
447 00:25:40 Nobody.
448 00:25:43 Wrong number.
449 00:25:46 Clarice already went overtheir selections.
450 00:25:49 You know, she'll up and cursein that church if a song is added.
451 00:25:52 I don't even knowwhy this is being entertained.
452 00:25:54 Well, Big Earl was Minnie's husband.
453 00:25:58 - Honey, take the cobbler out the oven.- Yeah?
454 00:26:00 - Don't let it burn.- I got you, baby.
455 00:26:02 And she does have a say...
456 00:26:04 Even if don't nobody want to hear it.
457 00:26:06 Yeah, when Namo Myoho Renge Kyostarts playing
458 00:26:09 you be the one to holdClarice back.
459 00:26:11 I'm gonna leave that to Richmond.
460 00:26:13 [Barbara Jean] Mm-hm.
461 00:26:16 I'm pretty sure he got some sinsto atone for.
462 00:26:19 She's been getting hang up calls.
463 00:26:21 She do star 69?
464 00:26:23 - Blocked.- A lot of those pro-teams and colleges,
465 00:26:27 they block their numbers.
466 00:26:29 [over phone] So, we don't know, Odette.
467 00:26:31 You don't know.And she don't want to know.
468 00:26:34 Richmond feels like he lost a step or twoafter that bad sugar scare.
469 00:26:38 - He likes attention.- I'm saying,
470 00:26:41 If I find out thathe been stepping out on Clarice,
471 00:26:44 he gonna wish he stayedin that coma.
472 00:26:45 [chuckles]
473 00:26:47 Baby, you know how much I love youin that night gown,
474 00:26:50 but we gotta get dressed.Okay, you gotta go...
475 00:26:52 Go get ready. We'll see you in a few.
476 00:26:55 Look, don't forget the lasagna. Bye.
477 00:26:57 Okay. Bye.
478 00:27:01 Okay.
479 00:27:27 [whispers] Damn it.
480 00:27:34 I love that dress.
481 00:27:39 Thank you.
482 00:27:45 [sighs] When I came to live with Big Earl,
483 00:27:49 only clothes I had were my mama's.
484 00:27:52 Trashy hand-me-downs.
485 00:27:57 But he told me I look prettyevery single day.
486 00:28:02 Figured he'd get a kick out of this dress.
487 00:28:13 I know, I...
488 00:28:15 Don't, don't...
489 00:28:19 You're not weak. Hm...
490 00:28:26 A weak personwould be two drinks in already.
491 00:28:32 You putting it back,
492 00:28:35 tells me what I've already known.
493 00:28:43 You're a strong person, Barbie.
494 00:28:47 Hey...
495 00:29:02 He's always with me.Along with my trusted cards.
496 00:29:08 Oh, Lord, she just don't stop this shit.
497 00:29:10 - Take that for me, baby.- Okay, Mama.
498 00:29:13 - Oh, God, come on, let's get in here.- Just near last year...
499 00:29:17 - Hey, there.- Hey...
500 00:29:19 Hey. Y'all take thatin the kitchen for me.
501 00:29:21 [James] Yes, ma'am.
502 00:29:22 I must say...
503 00:29:24 that would've been a beautifulhome-going, musically perfect,
504 00:29:28 if Odette hadn't intervened.
505 00:29:31 Minnie just use a little sage and smoke.That's all.
506 00:29:34 [Odette] The service wasn't that bad.
507 00:29:36 It was like one of themlittle grace notes.
508 00:29:38 [James] Can't believe Big Earl is gone.
509 00:29:40 You know that man,he kept an eye on me
510 00:29:42 - when he didn't have to.- Yeah, he loved you, James.
511 00:29:46 But I never understandwhy he married that Minnie.
512 00:29:48 She was a showgirl.
513 00:29:50 I get it.
514 00:29:52 [Clarice clears her throat]
515 00:29:53 We all like to think of Big Earlas a father figure
516 00:29:56 but he was still a man. Right?
517 00:29:58 Well, I guess he was passing his timeuntil he got back with Ms. Thelma.
518 00:30:01 I mean, look at that statue.
519 00:30:04 What this woman has doneto Ms. Thelma's home is a felony.
520 00:30:08 That blinking lightis giving me a headache.
521 00:30:10 It's been doing thatever since we came in.
522 00:30:13 All right, probably just a loose bulb.
523 00:30:15 - Okay, baby.- You sure?
524 00:30:16 - Yeah, I got it.- Okay.
525 00:30:18 [Barbara Jean] He likes to feel useful.
526 00:30:21 - All right, here we go.- Here you go, Dad.
527 00:30:22 Carl, you're trying to kill your father?
528 00:30:24 Don't put this on Carl, baby...Just this super bowl of ham.
529 00:30:27 My mama always taught me,you show your respect
530 00:30:30 - with a tribute of pork.- Amen.

637 00:35:32 [Ray] Sorry...
638 00:35:40 Hi.
639 00:35:53 My mother used a belt buckle.
640 00:35:57 I'm sure she didn't mean it.
641 00:35:59 No, she was too drunk to realize
642 00:36:01 she'd grabbed the wrong endwhen she swung it.
643 00:36:10 My brother, hit me with a brick
644 00:36:15 for taking food from his ice box.
645 00:36:23 My mama used to crack me with a pool cue
646 00:36:25 if I left the house with no makeup on.
647 00:36:28 Didn't have a momand my daddy died in jail.
648 00:36:30 I never knew my daddy
649 00:36:31 but there are four menwho hope they're not him.

711 00:39:32 Who's gonna raise our kids?
712 00:39:34 - My mother?- At least she's better than mine was.
713 00:39:37 They both...
714 00:39:40 put their selfish needsin front of their children, Barbara Jean.
715 00:39:44 They are the same womanjust wrapped in different packages.

717 00:39:53 I'll help raise your kidswhen that time come.
718 00:39:55 Me too.

821 00:46:58 I don't know why you ain't letClarice or Richmond drive you.
822 00:47:01 The test ain't but a few hours.
823 00:47:10 You ain't telling meyou was taking that nursing exam.

826 00:47:18 - Child, what is you saying?- [telephone ringing]
827 00:47:20 I got it, Ma. I got it.
828 00:47:23 Jackson residence.
829 00:47:29 Maybe my cycle's just late.
830 00:47:32 - Girl, we way past that point.- We don't know that.
831 00:47:35 - She needs to go to the doctor.- I agree.
832 00:47:37 He can give her the due date for her andChick's baby.
833 00:47:42 Hey, maybe you should go talkto Big Earl.
834 00:47:45 See what he's got to say about it.
835 00:47:47 And what am I gonna say, Clarice?
836 00:47:49 Oh, I've been sneaking out of the houseyou invited me in
837 00:47:52 to go have sex with the White bus boy.
838 00:47:55 Now I'm pregnant with his child.
839 00:47:57 I can't have Big Earlthinking of me that way.
840 00:47:59 You need to tell Chick.
841 00:48:01 She can't.
842 00:48:02 - And why not?- Good Lord,
843 00:48:04 please forgive mefor saying this, but...
844 00:48:11 you might not want to keep it.
845 00:48:14 You think her going under a dirty knifein the basement
846 00:48:18 is better than her havinga White boy's baby?
847 00:48:20 Is that what you're saying?
848 00:48:23 Well...
849 00:48:25 - There goes marrying Lester.- Marry?
850 00:48:28 Girl, don't even like Lester like that.
851 00:48:32 I'm no better than my mama.
852 00:48:36 More than one man, child on the way,not a father for it.
853 00:48:40 No, come on. I spent all this timethinking I was better than her.
854 00:48:44 I deserve everything that's coming to me.
855 00:48:46 - I deserve it.- Mm-hm. Hey, hey, hey.
856 00:48:50 Don't you ever thinkyou don't deserve better, Barbara Jean,
857 00:48:54 ever.
858 00:48:57 Your mama ain't give you a chanceto know your daddy.
859 00:49:01 And if you don't want to follow her fate,
860 00:49:03 then you know what you gotta do.
861 00:49:09 - I'm scared.- I know, I know. We right here.

869 00:49:50 and being tiredlike it ain't no big deal.
870 00:49:53 It is a pain in the ass.I'm hot now.
871 00:49:58 Ms. Odette, you're notgoing through menopause.
872 00:50:05 Well, thank God for that, but...
873 00:50:06 You have non-lymphoma.
874 00:50:13 [tense music]
875 00:50:18 Lymphoma... That's-that's...
876 00:50:20 Cancer, yeah.
877 00:50:25 What?
878 00:50:27 So, it's serious but we have treatmentoptions of chemotherapy.
879 00:50:32 I've taken the libertyof making an appointment
880 00:50:34 with the oncologist here at the hospital.
881 00:50:35 She's highly regarded, excellent.
882 00:50:38 Given your overall health, I'm optimistic,though we need to be aggressive.
883 00:50:42 [distorted voice]We'll start with a thorough...
884 00:50:44 [voice fading]
885 00:50:56 [Alex Li] Ms. Odette.
886 00:51:04 Ms. Odette.
887 00:51:09 Would you like me to speakto Mr. James about this for you?
888 00:51:11 [Odette] No, no, no, no, no, no.
889 00:51:14 You ought to see him when I get a cold.
890 00:51:17 [chuckles]
891 00:51:22 Yeah, I'm gonna keep thisto myself for a minute.
892 00:51:29 [somber music]
893 00:51:47 [harmonic vocalization]
894 00:52:10 [birds squawking]
895 00:52:27 - Chick.- Odette.
896 00:52:30 Oh, Chick.
897 00:52:34 Chick!
898 00:52:36 Oh, Chick.
899 00:52:40 [laughing]
900 00:52:47 What brings you back hereafter all this time?
901 00:52:50 The university put me in chargeof the research project
902 00:52:53 for the ornithology department.
903 00:52:55 - Oh.- Hawks, owls.
904 00:52:57 - [birds chirping]- Purple finches.
905 00:52:59 They gave me a bigger spacethan I had in Oregon.
906 00:53:03 Oh, Oregon.
907 00:53:05 That's where you've been hiding.
908 00:53:08 Oh, Chick![chuckles]
909 00:53:11 I see you're still leadingthe pack of the pretty White boys.
910 00:53:17 Still playing with them birds,don't tell me,
911 00:53:18 you're playingwith the dead ones now, too.
912 00:53:21 Nah, I just came out to watch them.
913 00:53:23 Saw this flock had lost one.
914 00:53:25 That's why they doing all this chirping.
915 00:53:27 They're mourning.
916 00:53:30 If you tell me they throw funeralsI'm gonna slap some sense into you.
917 00:53:33 Purple finches don't throw funerals,but they do feel hurt.
918 00:53:37 Loss.
919 00:53:57 I guess they ain't no differentthan us then, huh?
920 00:54:06 You heard about Big Earl?
921 00:54:09 First place I went to...
922 00:54:12 When I got back at the diner,Little Earl told me...
923 00:54:17 I didn't have the heartto go to the funeral.
924 00:54:20 I wanted to, but you know...
925 00:54:26 Barbara Jean.
926 00:54:28 Maybe I should have went...
927 00:54:32 It's never going to bea perfect time, is it.
928 00:54:35 Well, there is a wrong time.
929 00:54:39 And that wasn't a moment.
930 00:54:47 I better get on.
931 00:54:50 It's good to see you.
932 00:54:52 It's good to see you, too, Chick.
933 00:54:57 Don't let it be 30 years next time.
934 00:55:03 [Odette] Ray could wait another 30 years
935 00:55:05 and it still wouldn't bethe perfect time for Barbara Jean.
936 00:55:10 I didn't think she could takelosing him twice.
937 00:55:14 [Ray] Don't worry.
938 00:55:15 We go up north and we're good.
939 00:55:17 Green is the only colorthey care about up there.
940 00:55:19 [Barbara Jean] I-I don't know about this,Ray.
941 00:55:21 Won't he know you took his stash?
942 00:55:23 By the time he sees the money's gone,we'll be long out of town, all right.
943 00:55:27 Desmond's passed out.He's always drunk on the weekends.
944 00:55:31 Go wait in the shedand I'll be right back.
945 00:55:33 - Be quick, okay?- I will.
946 00:55:37 [Odette] Barbara Jean didn't tell Chickabout the baby.
947 00:55:43 She ended up on fate's one-way street,cussing all along the way.
948 00:55:59 What the hell are you doing here, girl?
949 00:56:02 You and Ray?
950 00:56:04 He messing aroundwith nigga pussy now?

970 00:56:55 I keep trying to tell you this,but you won't listen to me.
971 00:56:57 This, this is what it's gonna be like.
972 00:56:59 - Desmond will never know...- Desmond? This is more than your brother.
973 00:57:02 Wherever we go,we will be spit on or, worse... we...
974 00:57:08 We can't bring children into this.
975 00:57:11 No, oh, no, no.
976 00:57:13 Things might be different by the timewe have kids, okay.
977 00:57:15 We can't live like that.

981 00:57:33 - But you love me. I-I love you.- Love's not enough.
982 00:57:38 We...
983 00:57:40 We both want it to be enough,but it just, it just, it isn't.
984 00:57:52 I'm sorry, Ray.
985 00:57:56 I'm sorry.
986 00:57:59 [somber music]

989 00:58:36 [switch clicks]
990 00:58:55 [bell jingles]
991 00:59:05 Hey, I didn't mean to just pop in on you.
992 00:59:09 Big Earl told meyou're gonna be over here.
993 00:59:11 I hope it's okay.
994 00:59:15 [chuckles]
995 00:59:17 [sobbing]
996 00:59:21 What's wrong?
997 00:59:23 I'm pregnant.
998 00:59:30 [sobbing]
999 00:59:36 It's Ray Carlson's.
1000 00:59:51 Do you love him?
1001 01:00:02 [Barbara Jean sniffling]
1002 01:00:07 What are you gonna do?
1003 01:00:13 What does Ray want to do?
1004 01:00:15 Ray doesn't know.
1005 01:00:22 He left before I could tell him.
1006 01:00:26 [sobbing]
1007 01:00:39 [mellow music]
1008 01:00:43 I can treat you right, Barbara Jean.
1009 01:00:48 I just wanna spendmore time with you.
1010 01:00:52 And I'm not talking aboutmessing around either. I...
1011 01:00:58 I wanna be a husband,
1012 01:01:01 child or no child.
1013 01:01:08 You're crazy, Lester.
1014 01:01:10 [chuckles]
1015 01:01:12 I am.
1016 01:01:16 I also love you.
1017 01:01:26 You can't love my baby.
1018 01:01:39 I love our baby.
1019 01:01:43 [music continues]
1020 01:01:47 [piano music]
1021 01:02:23 [Odette] Clarice bought Barbara Jeana Bible
1022 01:02:25 so she could find some peaceafter losing Lester,
1023 01:02:29 but all it did was arm Barbara Jeanwith a long list of reasons
1024 01:02:33 to be even morepissed off at God.
1025 01:02:39 I can't lie and say I wasn't pissed, too.
1026 01:02:41 God seemed to be pickingon her for most of her life.
1027 01:02:53 Barbara Jean comforted herselfby thinking if she drank enough
1028 01:02:57 that in the morningshe wouldn't be able to recall
1029 01:03:01 that constant ache in her soul.
1030 01:03:05 Clarice thought if she struck enough keys,her ache would leave her too.
1031 01:03:10 She could hit every keyon a piano without missing.
1032 01:03:13 [indistinct chatter]
1033 01:03:18 But she was tone deafwhen it came to Richmond.
1034 01:03:22 Mama used to say a hard headmade a soft ass for a whooping.
1035 01:03:26 I used to think a whoopingincluded a switch, but...
1036 01:03:29 watching Clarice showed mea heart can take a ass whooping too.
1037 01:03:35 [sniffles]
1038 01:03:39 Yeah.

1049 01:04:10 but I knew better...
1050 01:04:13 because Christmas was always cruelto Barbara Jean.
1051 01:04:17 God and her both had a sonat that time of year.
1052 01:04:21 Her and God both lost those sons, too.
1053 01:04:27 I still can't decidewhose death was crueler.
1054 01:04:32 [Odette] You can never playa game with her.

1075 01:05:45 Ba-bam!

1086 01:06:48 You're okay. You just gotta wake up, baby.You're okay.
1087 01:06:53 [indistinct radio chatter]
1088 01:07:19 [Lester] You know who did this, James.
1089 01:07:21 - Desmond killed my boy.- [James] Listen.
1090 01:07:22 They're over at this place right now.Alright, we'll-we'll handle this.
1091 01:07:25 Man, they ain't gonna tryto put away a White man for this.
1092 01:07:27 - It's not like it used to be.- Bullshit!
1093 01:07:30 That is my boy!
1094 01:07:34 If you cops don't do something, I swearto God I'll take care of it myself.
1095 01:07:41 Listen, Lester, you gotta calm down.
1096 01:07:43 You can't be saying that right now.You can't be saying that right now.
1097 01:07:49 If you go and do something stupid,
1098 01:07:51 what the hell is gonna happento Barbara Jean?
1099 01:07:55 What's gonna happen to her?
1100 01:07:59 I need you to do something.
1101 01:08:04 You're okay, baby. You're okay.You're okay.
1102 01:08:09 [somber music]
1103 01:08:13 Barbara Jean.
1104 01:08:15 - They have to take him now.- No.
1105 01:08:17 No. Don't you touch him.
1106 01:08:20 It's okay. He's gonna wake up.He's okay. Wait.
1107 01:08:24 - Come on.- No. No! No.
1108 01:08:28 No. No, no, no, no, no!

1112 01:09:08 Oh, shit.
1113 01:09:25 Hey, baby.
1114 01:09:31 How was work today?
1115 01:09:33 It was okay.
1116 01:09:34 [chuckles]
1117 01:09:36 - Muah.- Muah.
1118 01:09:38 Oh, I'm tired.
1119 01:09:46 You wanna tell me what's going on?
1120 01:09:52 What you mean what's going on?
1121 01:09:59 I had a talk with Laureen.
1122 01:10:03 and she told me that, uh,
1123 01:10:05 you didn't show upfor work last Tuesday.
1124 01:10:09 Now you know,I don't like that spying.
1125 01:10:11 You know, I wouldn't spyif you would just be straight with me.
1126 01:10:15 So again, I ask...
1127 01:10:18 What's going on with you?
1128 01:10:29 Well, you know I've beenhaving them hot flashes.
1129 01:10:32 Mm-hm.
1130 01:10:35 Well, the doctor said that, um,
1131 01:10:41 it's a little bit more than the change.
1132 01:10:48 [scoffs]
1133 01:10:53 What kind?
1134 01:11:00 Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
1135 01:11:07 [sighs]
1136 01:11:16 It's not exactly the Christmas giftI was expecting.
1137 01:11:31 Now James, you know, I ain't saton your lap in a long time.
1138 01:11:36 It might be the end of that chair.
1139 01:11:40 Come on.
1140 01:11:46 Wait.
1141 01:11:51 - [sobbing]- [James groans]
1142 01:11:55 [exhales sharply]
1143 01:11:57 - It's gonna be alright, now. Okay?- [sobbing]
1144 01:12:01 I know, I know.
1145 01:12:03 It's gonna be alright. I know, I know.I love you, babe.
1146 01:12:08 It's gonna be alright.
1147 01:12:11 It's gonna be okay.
1148 01:12:15 - You want me to tell The Supremes?- No
1149 01:12:18 They can't handle nothing like this andthey got too much going on anyway.
1150 01:12:24 [James] Okay.
1151 01:12:26 So when do we start treatment?
1152 01:12:29 Hm?
1153 01:12:30 [whimpers]
1154 01:12:33 [somber music]
1155 01:12:46 [Odette] She's late.
1156 01:12:47 [Clarice] Well...
1157 01:12:49 The last time we met for Big Earl,
1158 01:12:51 Barbara Jean did lose Lester, now.
1159 01:12:53 Here you go,making excuses for her again.
1160 01:12:57 You see her parading around herewith that water bottle.
1161 01:13:00 That woman ain't hydrating.
1162 01:13:02 Look, I can't understand how this might bebringing up some dark things for her.
1163 01:13:07 If I took a drink every time a dark thingrolls its head up at me,
1164 01:13:10 - I'd be under the liquor store.- She's okay, Odette.
1165 01:13:13 Until she not.
1166 01:13:16 And Lester ain't here to clean her upthis time around.
1167 01:13:24 - [woman] Hey, Barbara Jean.- Hey.
1168 01:13:31 I had some volunteer workto finish up at the hospital.
1169 01:13:36 Scoot over.
1170 01:13:40 Hi.
1171 01:13:42 - [microphone feedback]- [clears throat]
1172 01:13:43 Welcome to Minnie's journeyto her great reward.
1173 01:13:47 - I thought this was for Big Earl.- Shh.
1174 01:13:49 Little Earl, dim the lights.
1175 01:13:51 What for, the sun's still out?
1176 01:13:53 - Just, get the lights.- Oh, Lord.
1177 01:13:56 [instrumental music]
1178 01:14:00 Oh, Lord, here we go.Here we go, here we go.
1179 01:14:04 Get the door. Get the door.
1180 01:14:05 - [bell jingling]- Get the door.
1181 01:14:07 - [indistinct chatter]- [laughing]
1182 01:14:12 Good Lord, is this a repastor resurrection?
1183 01:14:17 Trust me, Big Earl would die twiceto avoid this mess.
1184 01:14:20 [indistinct chatter]
1185 01:14:28 [coughing]
1186 01:14:38 You said you did shows before.
1187 01:14:41 An Easter pageant at churchain't no show.
1188 01:14:43 - Damn shame about that bunny rabbit.- [laughter]
1189 01:14:45 Y'all already took Earl's repast for me.
1190 01:14:48 You're not getting this too!
1191 01:14:51 Now, shush up!
1192 01:14:52 [woman] Big Earl just turned overin his grave.
1193 01:14:54 - Shush!- [laughter]
1194 01:14:58 [crowd applauding]
1195 01:14:59 Oh!
1196 01:15:01 Hold your applause for me.
1197 01:15:05 For soon,I will not be here to hear it.
1198 01:15:10 Ascension awaits.
1199 01:15:13 But since my end is nigh,
1200 01:15:16 - y'all can line on up.- No, no. No, no...
1201 01:15:19 Make sure you have your money to putright over there, that table.
1202 01:15:23 Is Minnie mourning her passing in advance?
1203 01:15:26 I mean, obviously this is the productionof Minnie McIntyre presents
1204 01:15:30 Repast The Musical.
1205 01:15:32 - I heard that, Clarice.- I meant you to.
1206 01:15:35 You know what?
1207 01:15:37 [chuckles]
1208 01:15:38 You wanna know what I sawin a vision last night?
1209 01:15:41 - Not particularly...- It was Richmond.
1210 01:15:43 On a foggy beach embracing a woman.
1211 01:15:46 Oh.
1212 01:15:47 But when that vision materialized,I saw that the woman...
1213 01:15:52 wasn't you.
1214 01:15:57 Your customers are getting antsyover there, Minnie.
1215 01:16:00 Y'all can try to ignore me,
1216 01:16:03 but the spirit guides already know.
1217 01:16:07 And what I hear from themis that someone's husband
1218 01:16:11 likes being all up in a Cherokee.
1219 01:16:16 And I'm not talking about the car.
1220 01:16:18 [mellow music]
1221 01:16:26 No, no, no, no, no.No, no.
1222 01:16:34 Mm-hm. You're okay.
1223 01:16:39 [upbeat music playing]
1224 01:16:47 [Odette] They ain't even gotthe good strippers.
1225 01:16:51 Veronica says she bartends here.
1226 01:16:53 For somebody who wasn't bornin a Satin Slipper,
1227 01:16:55 she knows more about this placethan I do.
1228 01:16:57 She also said they have Biblically themedpole dancers on Monday nights.
1229 01:17:03 John three dollars and 16 cent lap dances.
1230 01:17:06 If you and Veronica are becoming friends
1231 01:17:08 I will burn this place to the ground.
1232 01:17:11 Save all that for Cherokee.
1233 01:17:14 No, I'm just here to talkto her woman-to-woman.
1234 01:17:16 You mean, women to woman.
1235 01:17:19 You know, she might be one of themtake our earrings off
1236 01:17:22 and wanna,wanna swing on somebody.
1237 01:17:24 So me and Barbara Jean,we gonna be right behind you.
1238 01:17:26 - We gonna have to fight Cherokee?- If need be, honey.
1239 01:17:29 I am just here for answers,not to fight.
1240 01:17:33 Just saying.
1241 01:17:35 [exhales sharply]
1242 01:17:36 Cherokee.
1243 01:17:38 Like the Indian tribe?
1244 01:17:40 [Barbara Jean] No, like the jeep.
1245 01:17:42 Her daddy was a car repairman.
1246 01:17:44 Her brothers are named Terceland Seville.
1247 01:17:48 - [laughs] Oh, you lying.- Wait, wait, wait.
1248 01:17:50 - So you know her?- Uh-unh, not really.
1249 01:17:52 You know, she workspart-time at the hospital gift shop.
1250 01:17:55 Oh, there she is.
1251 01:17:58 Oh! Whoa! Hey.
1252 01:18:00 - She's practically a child.- [Barbara Jean] That may be.
1253 01:18:03 But she old enough to know better than tolay up with some other woman's husband.
1254 01:18:09 I guess ain't no woman's husbandoff limits, huh?
1255 01:18:13 - Don't, don't.- Oh, we doing that?
1256 01:18:14 You better back up.
1257 01:18:18 I'm Richmond's wife.
1258 01:18:24 Now let me ask you a simple question.
1259 01:18:28 When did you start sleeping with him?
1260 01:18:35 About four months ago.
1261 01:18:39 Well, look, he saidthat y'all wasn't together,
1262 01:18:41 so it's not like...
1263 01:18:42 [Odette] Cheating.
1264 01:18:44 Girl, that line is as old as selling ass.
1265 01:18:47 Did you think you would grow upand become a man's mistress?
1266 01:18:51 'Cause I know Richmondmust be selling dreams to you
1267 01:18:53 like a used car salesman.
1268 01:18:55 I mean, you're too young to know that thisis very self-serving for Richmond
1269 01:18:59 and you're the only onethat's given anything.
1270 01:19:02 See, 'cause all he gonna dois take from you.
1271 01:19:06 You know, take your beauty.
1272 01:19:08 He's gonna take that smile. He's gonnatake that light in your eye.
1273 01:19:10 He's gonna take that placewhere your heart used to be.
1274 01:19:13 He is going to take and take and take
1275 01:19:16 until there's nothing left
1276 01:19:18 because he doesn't care about you.
1277 01:19:23 [somber music]
1278 01:19:29 That's not because of me,just who he is.
1279 01:19:34 And you're not about to stand
1280 01:19:37 where I am standing now, young lady.
1281 01:19:48 You're gonna have yourself a nice night,Cherokee.
1282 01:19:53 [Odette] Oh, reset.I thought I nicked souls.
1283 01:19:57 - I'm just trying to save one.- Mm-hm.
1284 01:20:03 You know Big Earl came to talk to meabout Richmond
1285 01:20:06 the week we got married.
1286 01:20:08 - Same thing to me.- Me, too.
1287 01:20:10 [chuckles]
1288 01:20:12 Oh, Earl.
1289 01:20:14 [sighs]
1290 01:20:15 What'd he say to you, Reese?
1291 01:20:18 That in 30 years...
1292 01:20:20 Richmond would show himself to beone of the finest men in this town
1293 01:20:24 ever turned out, but until thenit was going to be a rough ride.
1294 01:20:29 I took that as a ring and endorsementbecause I wanted it to be, um,
1295 01:20:34 but it turned outto be a prediction.
1296 01:20:40 It wasn't Earl who told younot to marry Richmond.
1297 01:20:44 That was me, honey.
1298 01:20:45 [chuckles]
1299 01:20:48 [Clarice] Oh, God, w-what happened?
1300 01:20:52 Nothing.
1301 01:20:53 What is Alex Li doing to you?
1302 01:20:57 [scoffs] Nothing.
1303 01:20:58 But you said Dr. Li was helpingyou with the change.
1304 01:21:00 Mm-hm.
1305 01:21:05 It's more than that, isn't it?
1306 01:21:13 It's cancer.
1307 01:21:18 [Clarice sighs]
1308 01:21:25 But I'm fine.

1326 01:22:21 All this, all this fussing!All this fussing...
1327 01:22:25 You spent the last 30 years fussingthat and, and over us.
1328 01:22:29 Let us do the same.
1329 01:22:40 What the hell do you think you're doingwith that little shit?
1330 01:22:44 - [laughing]- [gunfire]
1331 01:22:52 [gunfire continues on TV]
1332 01:22:59 [TV switched off]
1333 01:23:01 Okay, I take it you want to talk.You could have just asked.
1334 01:23:05 Cherokee is a pretty girl.
1335 01:23:11 Naive, but pretty.
1336 01:23:13 - Who's Cherokee?- Don't.
1337 01:23:16 You've insulted me enough.
1338 01:23:17 Clarice, I swearI ain't been with nobody.
1339 01:23:20 I swear on my mama's grave.
1340 01:23:21 Well, knowing she raised a whore,
1341 01:23:24 she must be rolling in that graveright now.
1342 01:23:38 It was just a one-time thing.
1343 01:23:41 Oh, so you're saying that you sleptwith her one time?
1344 01:23:43 One time in four months...
1345 01:23:47 with some restraint?
1346 01:23:49 - No, this ain't nothing but Odette.- It's not.
1347 01:23:51 Oh, if it was up to Odette,she would have had you castrated
1348 01:23:55 on our wedding night.
1349 01:23:57 She has stayed relatively quieton the matter.
1350 01:23:59 - This ain't only on me.- Oh, so you're saying that
1351 01:24:00 it's my fault that you can't stay outof other women?
1352 01:24:04 You sold me a lieand mastered in a dream.
1353 01:24:08 I gave up everything for this family
1354 01:24:11 I never asked you to.
1355 01:24:14 If you were so upset,
1356 01:24:18 why don't you just speak up?
1357 01:24:19 If you would look at me,you would have known!
1358 01:24:35 [somber music]
1359 01:24:40 This isn't working for me anymore.
1360 01:24:50 Okay.
1361 01:24:56 But I'm not moving.
1362 01:25:01 So, I suggest you think it througha little bit more.
1363 01:25:09 So, this is who you are?
1364 01:25:26 Stay.
1365 01:25:30 I'll leave, Richmond.
1366 01:25:32 [music continues]
1367 01:25:53 Thank you, baby.
1368 01:25:56 Anytime. I mean, I don't knowwhat the hell I'm doing,
1369 01:25:59 but I'm trying my best.
1370 01:26:01 [both laughing]
1371 01:26:03 All these years wasted on diets,all it took was a touch of cancer.
1372 01:26:09 [sighs]
1373 01:26:10 Oh, shit.
1374 01:26:15 - I'm sorry, baby.- Oh, that's alright.
1375 01:26:18 Gives you something less to do.
1376 01:26:27 It's like a painting.
1377 01:26:29 [James] What is?
1378 01:26:35 Life.
1379 01:26:43 You fill in your picture
1380 01:26:47 every day,
1381 01:26:49 trying to make it as pretty as you can
1382 01:26:51 till you get to the edgeof your frame.
1383 01:27:03 I believe my mama's sycamore tree...
1384 01:27:08 was the prettiest spot on my canvas.
1385 01:27:20 I'll open up.
1386 01:27:28 [exhales sharply]
1387 01:27:33 I don't know how to do this.
1388 01:27:38 Nobody does.
1389 01:27:41 Y'all coming?
1390 01:27:46 Well, when you pick the right one,I guess you don't need to.
1391 01:27:53 When it's time for me to go...
1392 01:27:58 sycamore tree is where I want to be.
1393 01:28:05 [birds chirping]
1394 01:28:10 [piano music]
1395 01:28:17 - How's it going back there?- It's going good. Be still.
1396 01:28:19 Alright, alright. Okay.
1397 01:28:22 [trimmer buzzing]
1398 01:28:30 [Barbara Jean] Done.
1399 01:28:31 - Done.- You done?
1400 01:28:33 Wow.
1401 01:28:36 What? What? No, no, no, no.Wait, wait, wait, wait.
1402 01:28:42 It was gonna come off anywaybecause of chemo, right?
1403 01:28:45 - That's right.- [Clarice] That's right.
1404 01:28:53 - Okay.- You ready?
1405 01:28:54 Yes, I'm ready.
1406 01:29:11 I thought I'd be in tears.
1407 01:29:15 But after years of heat, rollers
1408 01:29:18 chemicals burns, shit, I shouldhave done this years ago!
1409 01:29:23 I know, that's right.
1410 01:29:24 Hell, I'm free!
1411 01:29:26 [all laughing]
1412 01:29:29 Well, you got a goodshaved head, too.
1413 01:29:31 - I got me a good barber.- How about that?
1414 01:29:34 [Barbara Jean] That's right.
1415 01:29:36 I want the same thing.
1416 01:29:40 - What?- Clarice.
1417 01:29:42 Girl, I appreciate the solidarity,but you just left your husband.
1418 01:29:46 So?
1419 01:29:47 So, you ain't in the right frame of mindto make a decision like this
1420 01:29:50 I know,I just found a prayer list
1421 01:29:52 for my church sayingthat they want to pray for me
1422 01:29:55 for my recent behavior with Richmond.
1423 01:29:56 Oh, church miss.
1424 01:29:58 Oh, let's give them somethingto talk about.
1425 01:30:01 - Who next? Come on.- Okay.
1426 01:30:03 Come on.Come on right here, ma'am.
1427 01:30:06 We're gonna go in stages, okay.
1428 01:30:07 Why we gotta go in stages, now?
1429 01:30:09 Because you might have a cone head.
1430 01:30:12 I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
1431 01:30:14 Leave me a little to work with though.
1432 01:30:22 [Odette] Wonder what happenedto Barbara Jean.
1433 01:30:24 Oh, she wasn't at church today.
1434 01:30:28 What the kind of clothes she wears,she's hard to miss.
1435 01:30:31 Huh. Hot, meet kettle.
1436 01:30:33 Oh. I didn't wear thisto church, Clarice.
1437 01:30:37 I'm slimming down.
1438 01:30:38 Ain't you hot?
1439 01:30:41 What you want a heat stroke diet?
1440 01:30:45 [gasping]
1441 01:30:46 [crashing]
1442 01:30:48 [Odette] What in the world?
1443 01:30:50 Oh, my God.
1444 01:30:53 [Clarice] Barbara Jean?
1445 01:30:57 - Barbara Jean?- How did this happen to me?
1446 01:31:00 - I didn't mean to do it.- It's okay, it's okay.
1447 01:31:02 It's okay, it's okay.
1448 01:31:05 [crying] I'm so sorry, I wet myself.
1449 01:31:13 [scoffs]
1450 01:31:15 Look what the cat dragged in.
1451 01:31:16 How you feeling?
1452 01:31:17 Much better. Thank you.
1453 01:31:21 I don't know what happened.

1458 01:31:35 She running around herewetting her pants in public, Clarice.
1459 01:31:38 Ain't nothing to dobut to call it what it is.
1460 01:31:41 You are alcoholic.
1461 01:31:43 No, no, no, no.My mama was one.
1462 01:31:46 I know what that looked likeand this ain't that.
1463 01:31:48 [Odette] You could have killed somebody.
1464 01:31:50 Mnm-mnm.
1465 01:31:52 You could have killed a kid.
1466 01:31:55 [scoffs]
1467 01:32:02 You've been drowningever since Adam died.
1468 01:32:05 Yeah, I said it.
1469 01:32:09 But I'm telling you right nowthis is gonna stop today.
1470 01:32:12 Before you kill yourselfor somebody else--
1471 01:32:14 Fine. Fine.
1472 01:32:17 I'll stop drinking. Okay?
1473 01:32:20 Okay, good.
1474 01:32:22 Because tomorrow me and Clarice,
1475 01:32:23 we're gonna take youto Alcoholics Anonymous.
1476 01:32:25 No, no. I don't need all that.
1477 01:32:28 I don't need all that.Today was a hard day, that's all.
1478 01:32:33 Alright. Okay, then,well, what about weeks ago
1479 01:32:35 when you didn't pick me upfor my cancer treatment?
1480 01:32:37 - I told you.- You can't show up for yourself...
1481 01:32:39 So I don't know why I thinkyou're gonna show up for me.
1482 01:32:41 You know, I was a dummyfor trusting you.
1483 01:32:43 You... you're going along with this?
1484 01:32:45 We know not to call you after 9 o'clock
1485 01:32:47 because we know you're not gonnaremember the conversations.
1486 01:32:51 Oh, those were conversations?
1487 01:32:55 There's nothing to remember.
1488 01:32:58 Y'all both talk the same old shitevery day...
1489 01:33:00 - Barbara Jean.- Let her talk.
1490 01:33:01 complaining about"shoulda, woulda, coulda."
1491 01:33:05 Knowing neither one of y'allare ever gonna
1492 01:33:06 change a damn thing about yourself.
1493 01:33:08 Well, maybe that's because we've too busychanging your pissy ass drawers.
1494 01:33:11 Well, you should have been worriedabout changing your husband.
1495 01:33:13 Your mouth is writing checks,your ass ain't brave enough to cash.
1496 01:33:16 Oh, I can cash it,
1497 01:33:18 question is can you afford it?
1498 01:33:20 I'm not the one who settledto be a lunch lady.
1499 01:33:22 Oh, shit.
1500 01:33:25 Maybe I wouldn't have had to settleif you had kept your legs closed.
1501 01:33:29 Oh, so my open legsis why you couldn't take that test
1502 01:33:32 for the last 30 years.That's the lie we telling now?
1503 01:33:35 - Don't.- Don't what?
1504 01:33:36 Be like you and give upa whole damn career for a man
1505 01:33:39 who screws aroundlike it's his goddamn job?
1506 01:33:42 You're just like your drunk ass mama.
1507 01:33:44 [laughs]
1508 01:33:49 [Clarice] BJ...
1509 01:33:53 [Barbara Jean] When you lose a husband
1510 01:33:57 and bury your baby in the cold ass ground
1511 01:34:01 then you can come for me.
1512 01:34:04 Until then stop judging me.
1513 01:34:08 Because y'all don't understand.You're not... You don't understand.
1514 01:34:11 You think you own the marketon worry and grief?
1515 01:34:18 You think we don't understandhard days?
1516 01:34:23 My goddamn cancer medicinestopped working.
1517 01:34:27 - What?- What do you mean stop working?
1518 01:34:30 It means cancer is smart...
1519 01:34:35 and it adapts.
1520 01:34:38 It means
1521 01:34:40 they're gonna give mesome more medicine
1522 01:34:43 that's probably gonna kill me first.
1523 01:34:47 - I'm sorry. Odette, I'm so sorry.- Keep it.
1524 01:34:53 Keep it.
1525 01:34:55 - You ain't sorry.- Yes.
1526 01:34:56 [Odette] You ain't sorry.
1527 01:34:59 I'm washing my hands of you.I'm washing my hands of you, too.
1528 01:35:03 - No, you don't mean that.- I do mean it. I do mean it.
1529 01:35:08 I'm washing my hands of you, too.
1530 01:35:09 You're just like her.You're just like Barbara Jean.
1531 01:35:13 What?
1532 01:35:15 You just like your mama, too.
1533 01:35:19 You up and left Richmond
1534 01:35:21 but that don't make up for the factthat you 30 years late
1535 01:35:24 on a revelation that it should havetook you 30 seconds to see.
1536 01:35:33 Unh-unh.
1537 01:35:35 I ain't gonna waste my last dayson a damn pushover...
1538 01:35:43 and a goddamn drunk.
1539 01:35:49 - Odette!- Odette!
1540 01:35:50 Oh, my God.
1541 01:35:51 Odette? Odette?
1542 01:35:54 Wake up, wake up. Odette.
1543 01:35:59 [Alex] The cancer isn't her mostserious problem, she has an infection.
1544 01:36:05 [James] Well, what kind of infection?
1545 01:36:07 All her heart and lungsare distributing sickness
1546 01:36:09 throughout her body,but the antibiotics aren't stopping it.
1547 01:36:13 Will she wake up?
1548 01:36:18 She's a fighter.
1549 01:36:22 [instrumental music]
1550 01:36:49 You are gonna be okay, baby.
1551 01:36:52 You have to.
1552 01:36:55 Because I don't work without you.
1553 01:37:00 [Barbara Jean] You need your rest, James.
1554 01:37:02 The kids needs you strong.
1555 01:37:04 And Odette needs you healthy.
1556 01:37:08 She says she needs you to goand get a bite to eat.
1557 01:37:11 - I ain't hungry.- [Barbara Jean] Doesn't matter.
1558 01:37:14 You need to go down to that cafeteriaand put something in your stomach.
1559 01:37:17 Mm-hmm.
1560 01:37:18 Come on. Come on.
1561 01:37:21 I'll go with you.
1562 01:37:24 Alright.
1563 01:37:27 I'll be back, baby.
1564 01:37:29 - I'll stay here with her, James.- Alright.
1565 01:37:57 I started AA.
1566 01:38:02 I haven't gotten up the nerveto do more than just listen yet.
1567 01:38:10 But, um,
1568 01:38:15 one of the membersis on his step nine.
1569 01:38:21 Make direct amends
1570 01:38:24 with the people you've harmed
1571 01:38:26 unless it'll harm them even more.
1572 01:38:32 I hope this doesn't harm you.
1573 01:38:41 Barbara Jean.
1574 01:38:43 [Barbara Jean] But I've done far,far worse things than drink.
1575 01:38:52 [birds chirping]
1576 01:38:58 Things I never told youand Clarice about.
1577 01:39:03 I knew the years of silencebetween me and Ray
1578 01:39:07 would be filled with nothingbut grief and regret.
1579 01:39:10 But I still needed to go find himafter Adam died.
1580 01:39:14 I had to.
1581 01:39:16 Do you think Desmond killed Adambecause he knew he was yours?
1582 01:39:23 What are you talking about yours?
1583 01:39:25 I mean, I know I didn't tell you,but I just somehow thought you knew.
1584 01:39:30 I mean, I can feel Ad...
1585 01:39:34 I could feel Adam's presence
1586 01:39:37 so hardly like it was a part of me,
1587 01:39:39 I mean, I didn't need to see himto know he was there, you know.
1588 01:39:42 I guess, I just...
1589 01:39:45 I hoped that you could feel him too.
1590 01:39:57 There's blood on my hands
1591 01:40:01 and Ray's too.
1592 01:40:03 [Ray] Please tell me what I can do,Barbara Jean,
1593 01:40:06 there's gotta be something we can do.
1594 01:40:10 Please tell me something we can do.
1595 01:40:13 If you want to do somethingfor our son...
1596 01:40:17 I want that more than anything.
1597 01:40:20 You make sure that Desmond knowsthat he killed his own.
1598 01:40:27 And then you kill him.
1599 01:40:36 [dramatic music]
1600 01:40:39 [door closes]
1601 01:40:47 [Clarice] And we know through youthat all things are possible.
1602 01:40:50 [James] Amen.
1603 01:40:52 [Clarice] So we need you.
1604 01:40:55 We need you to lift up our sister.
1605 01:40:57 Yes.
1606 01:40:59 [Clarice] Our friend,a mother of children.
1607 01:41:03 Yes.
1608 01:41:04 [Clarice] Because we need her.

1616 01:41:28 [James laughing]
1617 01:41:35 - [Alex] Excuse me.- [James] Y'all see that?
1618 01:41:38 This girl been through hell,she still ain't holding back.
1619 01:41:41 [Odette] I ain't got no time to hold back.
1620 01:41:44 I ain't gonna be holdingmy tongue no more.
1621 01:41:47 [scoffs] You've been holdingyour tongue all this time?
1622 01:41:50 She must have some brain damage.
1623 01:41:52 [laughing]
1624 01:41:54 [Odette] Clarice,
1625 01:41:56 I want you to take James home.

1632 01:42:22 - I love you, baby.- Love you.
1633 01:42:28 Alright.
1634 01:42:32 - [Odette] Clarice?- Yes.
1635 01:42:35 That musical piece you wanted to play...
1636 01:42:43 you ain't missed a damn note, girl.
1637 01:42:51 Stop beating yourself up.
1638 01:42:54 It ain't your fault.
1639 01:43:02 [emotional music]
1640 01:43:14 [Odette] Barbara Jean.
1641 01:43:20 I saw Chick...
1642 01:43:24 - In your coma?- No. No.
1643 01:43:28 Right after Big Earl died.
1644 01:43:36 - Ray's here?- He's at the university.
1645 01:43:40 You should have told me.
1646 01:43:42 I know.
1647 01:43:45 But you were still hurtingafter Lester died.
1648 01:43:49 I didn't wanna put anymore pain on you.
1649 01:43:54 Barbara Jean, I don't careif you ain't on step nine.
1650 01:44:02 I want you to go see Chick.
1651 01:44:05 I want you to lay it all outin the sunlight,
1652 01:44:09 the whole truth.
1653 01:44:12 I ain't gonna rest in peaceunless I know you do that.
1654 01:44:19 You promise me,
1655 01:44:23 promise me.
1656 01:44:24 I promise. I promise.
1657 01:44:28 You better be here when I get back.
1658 01:44:30 Girl, I ain't going nowhere.
1659 01:44:35 I'm too stubborn.
1660 01:44:45 Richmond, I need you to stay.
1661 01:44:52 Odette, before you pull a Minnie on me...
1662 01:44:55 I know I've been a bad husband.
1663 01:44:57 I know that.
1664 01:45:01 So...
1665 01:45:03 can I just tell you I'm sorryfor everything.
1666 01:45:06 We just leave it at that.
1667 01:45:08 [Odette] Well, I don't wantto talk to you.
1668 01:45:11 I just want your musclesand your car.
1669 01:45:16 [soft music]
1670 01:45:21 [birds chirping]
1671 01:45:32 Just take your time, take your time.
1672 01:45:37 It's okay.Let-let's go slow.
1673 01:45:40 Okay, listenwe're coming close to the tree.
1674 01:45:44 Now, I'm gonna let you down.
1675 01:45:46 And I hope you got this...
1676 01:45:56 Yeah.
1677 01:46:00 [Odette panting]
1678 01:46:03 You okay?
1679 01:46:08 Alright.
1680 01:46:12 [Odette] I know I was supposedto be born fearless,
1681 01:46:16 but that was actually a damn lie.
1682 01:46:20 I might have been born off the ground,but never thought about
1683 01:46:24 how I could never die there.
1684 01:46:27 I had to touch the ground someday
1685 01:46:30 that place where fear and fate resided.
1686 01:46:34 Fear and fate were thingsI never expected would meet.
1687 01:46:39 But the two had been havingan unknown love affair
1688 01:46:42 since my very first breath.
1689 01:46:45 Hell, everybody's focused ontelling us how to live
1690 01:46:50 but nobody ever comes back to tell youhow to do death, right?
1691 01:47:09 [sniffling]
1692 01:47:10 [clearing throat]
1693 01:47:41 Damn you, Richmond,I asked you to do one thing
1694 01:47:44 - you don't get that right.- What?
1695 01:47:47 - You said take you here.- And to a sycamore tree.
1696 01:47:50 What... What's this then?
1697 01:47:52 You got me out here withmagnolia seed pods falling on my head.
1698 01:47:58 I'm sorry. A tree is a tree to me.
1699 01:48:01 I'm over here trying to diethe way I want,
1700 01:48:05 I can't even get that right.
1701 01:48:07 [chuckles]
1702 01:48:16 What you laughing at?
1703 01:48:19 Oooh!
1704 01:48:22 You must be feeling better orGod ain't ready to take you just yet.
1705 01:48:32 You want me to carry you somewhere else?
1706 01:48:36 If you show me where the sycamore is,I can, I can take you there.
1707 01:48:41 I don't know.
1708 01:48:43 I don't know.
1709 01:48:46 I didn't think about it this far.
1710 01:48:51 I thought I'd be dead by now.
1711 01:49:00 You ever think that maybeit ain't your time yet?
1712 01:49:08 My daddy used to say
1713 01:49:12 God's got a plan.
1714 01:49:18 Maybe he got a plan for youto do some other things.
1715 01:49:24 I'd like to see you do that.
1716 01:49:36 I'd like to see youdo some things too, Richmond.
1717 01:49:43 You ain't gonna believe, I don't believe
1718 01:49:46 I'm saying this but in my heart
1719 01:49:54 I know you a better man than this.
1720 01:50:08 You think so?
1721 01:50:13 I know it.
1722 01:50:26 Come on.
1723 01:50:28 Let's get back to the hospitalbefore James gets back.
1724 01:50:36 He finds out about thisI just might die.
1725 01:50:39 Alright, come on. Come on.
1726 01:50:41 [instrumental music]
1727 01:50:44 [birds chirping]
1728 01:50:54 [knocking on door]
1729 01:51:03 Hey.
1730 01:51:05 Hey.
1731 01:51:07 [sighs] Making amends is
1732 01:51:12 much harder than my addiction is.
1733 01:51:17 So, you're making amends to me?
1734 01:51:20 Yes.
1735 01:51:31 What do you want?
1736 01:51:34 I should have
1737 01:51:36 shot Desmond myself.
1738 01:51:40 But I took the love you had for me
1739 01:51:41 and twisted itto make you pull the trigger.
1740 01:51:46 [clears throat]
1741 01:51:48 I didn't kill Desmond.
1742 01:51:52 I went over there after you left
1743 01:51:55 and when I got therehe was already dead.
1744 01:51:57 Oh, my God.
1745 01:51:59 Oh, my God. Lester.
1746 01:52:03 No, it wasn't Lester.
1747 01:52:06 Desmond hurt a lot of people,Barbara Jean.
1748 01:52:10 I guess his girlfriend
1749 01:52:13 took enough licks and hit backthe only way she could.
1750 01:52:18 I told her to leave town.
1751 01:52:20 No sense in her beingput back in a cage
1752 01:52:22 when she just escaped one.
1753 01:52:25 [Richmond] It's an early present.
1754 01:52:32 Is this a joke?
1755 01:52:35 I know you meant well, but I don't playconcerts with an audience.
1756 01:52:41 Then you
1757 01:52:43 go up on that stage
1758 01:52:45 and play for yourself.
1759 01:52:49 I honestly don't know whether to kiss you
1760 01:52:53 or spank you sometimes.
1761 01:52:54 [chuckling]
1762 01:52:56 You could do both.
1763 01:52:58 I loved you so hardwhen I was younger.
1764 01:53:02 And as you told me,sometimes love just isn't enough.
1765 01:53:14 Bye, Ray.
1766 01:53:25 [Ray] Barbara Jean.
1767 01:53:28 [instrumental music]
1768 01:53:38 [instrumental music]
1769 01:54:00 [Richmond] Good morning.
1770 01:54:03 I didn't want to take offbefore you woke up.
1771 01:54:06 I was thinking maybe we could hiresomebody to move your things.
1772 01:54:10 No need for you to do it.
1773 01:54:12 What are you talking about?
1774 01:54:13 You, coming back home.
1775 01:54:18 Am I moving back home, Richmond?
1776 01:54:22 What do you meanyou're not coming home?
1777 01:54:24 - I thought after last night--- Last night was fun.
1778 01:54:27 But I don't see any reason for meto move back home.
1779 01:54:39 We've only been apart for a short time,
1780 01:54:41 it doesn't fix30 years of foolish decisions.
1781 01:54:54 Yeah.
1782 01:54:56 You knew if we slept together,I think you were moving back home.
1783 01:55:05 You used me.
1784 01:55:13 [snickers]
1785 01:55:15 I'm sorry, Richmond, I'm very sorry.
1786 01:55:21 [upbeat music]
1787 01:55:34 - Oh...- Hey, what's up?
1788 01:55:35 Alright now. Alright now.
1789 01:55:40 Oh, thank you. Thank you, thank you.
1790 01:55:46 Veronica.
1791 01:55:49 - Praise the Lord.- I know, I know.
1792 01:55:53 Ladies.
1793 01:55:57 - Yeah.- Come here, come here.
1794 01:56:03 I know all these peopleain't here to see me.
1795 01:56:05 Oh, it doesn't matter because...
1796 01:56:06 We are.
1797 01:56:09 We are.
1798 01:56:13 I'm just starting to look good again,
1799 01:56:14 and y'all heifers gonna make me cry.
1800 01:56:16 Looking good? I know you ain't sayingthat wearing that outfit.
1801 01:56:21 If you and James didn't have kids,
1802 01:56:22 I would think that you were dressinglike that to keep your virginity.
1803 01:56:26 - Still hating, I see.- Grace notes.
1804 01:56:30 You know, some little girls tryto sit at our table.
1805 01:56:33 Who?
1806 01:56:35 These kids have no respect.
1807 01:56:37 After Barbara Jean set them straight,they did.
1808 01:56:41 Alright, Chick.
1809 01:56:44 I guess they thought The Supremeswere a thing of the past.
1810 01:56:47 Past my ass.
1811 01:56:49 We still look as goodas we did back in the day.
1812 01:56:52 Right? Come on.
1813 01:56:55 Great.
1814 01:56:59 I see Richmond's little gift ispaying off, huh?
1815 01:57:02 [Clarice] Oh, it is not.
1816 01:57:03 I mean, he means welland everything, but...
1817 01:57:06 I am not playing at his concert.
1818 01:57:10 I made some calls.
1819 01:57:15 I'm going to New York.
1820 01:57:18 Clarice.
1821 01:57:20 I got some, uh...recording to catch up on.
1822 01:57:27 Reese, I'm so proud of you.
1823 01:57:31 I'm so proud of you.
1824 01:57:35 [instrumental music]
1825 01:57:39 [Odette] Fate might have put meon a one-way street,
1826 01:57:42 but I was destined to walkthat street well-loved,
1827 01:57:47 with someone on my left
1828 01:57:49 and with someone on my rightholding me up.
1829 01:57:53 Without each other,maybe we would have believed
1830 01:57:55 what the world told us about ourselves.
1831 01:57:57 Broken pieces, hot messes,bad omens.
1832 01:58:01 They thought a friendshipcouldn't hold us together,
1833 01:58:04 and they were right.
1834 01:58:06 Love was our glue.
1835 01:58:09 We might have been broken,hot messes when apart,
1836 01:58:12 but together, we had painteda pretty damn good picture
1837 01:58:17 and a Picasso can't ever touch that.
1838 01:58:20 That's the kind of love we know.
1839 01:58:23 Yeah, our hands were, and still are,
1840 01:58:26 unsure sometimes.
1841 01:58:29 But we're not worried about reachingthe edge of our frame,
1842 01:58:32 not when there's so muchmore good painting
1843 01:58:35 we've got to do... together.
1844 01:58:44 [Little Earl] Hey, y'all,Minnie's gonna kill herself.
1845 01:58:47 [Odette] Minnie's gonna die today.
1846 01:58:50 That's a long way to goto make a prediction come true.
1847 01:58:52 You have to admire her dedication.
1848 01:58:55 Whoo!
1849 01:58:56 - Wait-wait now.- [Little Earl] Come inside the house.
1850 01:58:58 [Minnie] Y'all would love that,wouldn't you?
1851 01:59:01 You would love for meto live through this day.
1852 01:59:06 So, everybody can call my gift
1853 01:59:09 for prophecy into question.
1854 01:59:13 I think she is gonna kill herself.
1855 01:59:15 - [Little Earl] Watch it, Miss Minnie!- [Richmond] Hey, hold it.
1856 01:59:16 [Odette] Oh, shit!
1857 01:59:20 Oh, my gosh!
1858 01:59:21 - Are you okay, Minnie?- What is wrong with you, Minnie?
1859 01:59:24 [Barbara Jean] Is she dead?
1860 01:59:25 [Odette] Well, dreams do come true.
1861 01:59:27 [Minnie laughing hysterically]
1862 01:59:30 Oh, my God!
1863 01:59:32 I fulfilled my prediction!
1864 01:59:36 You said you were gonna die.
1865 01:59:38 I had a near-death experience.
1866 01:59:41 That counts.
1867 01:59:42 Ms. Minnie,you almost killed me.
1868 01:59:45 Now don't you go trying to get inon my prophecy?
1869 01:59:49 [Little Earl] Nobody's trying to get inon your prophecy.
1870 01:59:50 Alright, alright.
1871 01:59:52 She know how to put on a show,but I ain't paying for it.
