00:02:06I'm sorry.
00:02:07I'm sorry.
00:02:23Good morning Saints.
00:02:25Remember to let go and let God.
00:02:31Hey young lady, I've never seen a better looking 30 year old.
00:02:35Happy Father's Day, Clarence.
00:02:37Thank you, sir.
00:02:38It's always good to see you.
00:02:39Where is the missus?
00:02:41Oh, she'll be here for the service.
00:02:51Happy Father's Day, Mrs. Jones.
00:02:53Here you go.
00:02:54Hey, thank you, Chantel.
00:02:56You're welcome.
00:02:57How are you?
00:02:58Blessed.
00:02:59I know I shouldn't be in here,
00:03:01but I just wanted to bring you the new linens for Father's Day.
00:03:04We'll make an exception for you this time.
00:03:06You are the pastor's daughter.
00:03:08Where's Mrs. Jones?
00:03:11She was tired this morning.
00:03:12She'll be here later.
00:03:13Okay, well, let me give you a hand.
00:03:17You're welcome.
00:03:34Today is Father's Day,
00:03:41a day to celebrate the greatest achievement of manhood,
00:03:46and that is being a father.
00:03:49Isaiah puts it like this in Isaiah 40.
00:03:51He shall feed his flock like a shepherd.
00:03:54He shall gather the lambs with his arms and carry them in his bosom
00:03:59and shall gently lead those that are young.
00:04:03But something has happened horribly,
00:04:06and that is that the fathers have disappeared.
00:04:09So consequently, because Dad is no longer around,
00:04:13the woman has to stand up and be strong.
00:04:17She has to be strong because she's forced to be the breadwinner
00:04:21when God did not intend it to be so.
00:04:24God didn't intend for her to be strong as she is today.
00:04:28God intended for the man to be strong,
00:04:31and the man take care of his family.
00:04:35And a man has got to step up to the plate
00:04:39and declare, I am a man of God.
00:04:43I'm not just a father in a biological sense,
00:04:48but I take care of my business.
00:04:51It don't make sense to bring a wimp up in your house
00:04:55or somebody you got to take care of.
00:04:57You need a man you can look up to.
00:05:00A man you can respect as a man who does the will of God.
00:05:06So fathers, stand up.
00:05:09Let's be counted as the man that God requires us to be.
00:05:15God bless you.
00:05:17Let us rise.
00:05:19Amen.
00:05:20Amen.
00:05:21All right, let's eat.
00:05:23So good.
00:05:24Ooh, the pasta was right.
00:05:26I don't care what race a man comes from,
00:05:28I'm just trying to find a man.
00:05:29Lord, please send him to me.
00:05:31Sister, he wasn't talking about abandonment.
00:05:33He was talking about embracing our culture
00:05:35and making it better, all right?
00:05:37Take notes.
00:05:39God, what is wrong with you?
00:05:41You're going to mess up my outfit.
00:05:42Just get your clumsy hands off of me.
00:05:45It was an accident.
00:05:47Accident?
00:05:49He's an idiot.
00:05:50You could use a little humility.
00:05:52Why's that, Clarence?
00:05:54Hmm?
00:05:55Because I work hard to get ahead.
00:05:57Because I work hard to get ahead
00:05:59because I refuse to stay in my place.
00:06:03And I just remembered I have a board meeting
00:06:05back at the church.
00:06:06Whoa, Clarence, whoa.
00:06:07It's Father's Day, Clarence.
00:06:10You can't finish your lunch?
00:06:12Oh, I'm done.
00:06:14I'll see you back at the house.
00:06:17Is the church so important that you can't spend
00:06:19one afternoon with your wife?
00:06:21Clarence.
00:06:24We'll do something later.
00:06:26Please excuse me.
00:06:37I need to borrow $2,500.
00:06:39And I'll pay you back as soon as I get my record deal.
00:06:43And I need a wife that cooks breakfast.
00:06:47That would be beautiful.
00:06:49Look, I won't just give you the money,
00:06:51but you can't start working at the shop and earn it.
00:06:55I don't want to work at the shop.
00:06:57I want to focus on my music.
00:06:58If music is your focus, that's fine.
00:07:00But you got to start taking care of yourself also.
00:07:02You're a man now.
00:07:07I'll see you later, all right?
00:07:11And keep the music down.
00:07:16All right, folks, we're going to have to drop this down.
00:07:18So make sure you got that side?
00:07:20All right, because we're going to have to lock it in.
00:07:22That's a good deal.
00:07:23Give us a hand, Jasper.
00:07:24You see these hands?
00:07:25They're reserved for caressing the soft, supple,
00:07:27beautiful bodies of Jasper.
00:07:29All right, OK, you got some gloves or something?
00:07:31All right, I got this up here.
00:07:33Y'all got it?
00:07:34OK.
00:07:35Hey, I heard Rachel's looking for a new job.
00:07:38Yeah, she's trying to cash in on her degree.
00:07:40For what?
00:07:41She already makes more money than you.
00:07:43How does it feel to have your wife calling the shots?
00:07:46She got you cooking breakfast yet?
00:07:49You do laundry too, right?
00:07:52Say, why don't you go and come over to my house for dinner tonight?
00:07:55Charlene will have everything laid out.
00:07:57By the time you hit the door, you can see how a real man runs his household.
00:08:00I wear the pants in my family.
00:08:02Really? When did Rachel give them back to you?
00:08:04You need Jesus.
00:08:06Jesus don't need me.
00:08:07He already got you.
00:08:09Speaking of Jesus, ain't it time for communion?
00:08:12Huh?
00:08:13Let's have a drink, y'all.
00:08:14Don't.
00:08:15Don't do that.
00:08:17My bad.
00:08:18Huh?
00:08:19My bad.
00:08:23That's it.
00:08:24Stop playing around.
00:08:25All we got to do is get some new recording equipment.
00:08:28And it's over.
00:08:30You hear me?
00:08:31It's over.
00:08:32We on fire, boy.
00:08:33Give me my seat.
00:08:34Let's get up out of here.

00:08:37We about to make history.

00:09:05You ain't got to be mean, baby, but you mean in them jeans.
00:09:11Yo, bro, we got to step our game up.
00:09:17Remember to change your oil every 3,000 miles, not 8,000 next time.
00:09:22Don't forget to come back and see me now.
00:09:27Hey!
00:09:28Like what you see, playa?
00:09:30Oh, yeah, she's a thug.
00:09:32Like what you see, playa?
00:09:34Oh, yeah, she's a nice lady.
00:09:36Might want to watch yourself, Mr. Righteous.
00:09:38Boy, go ahead.
00:09:41What's going on, fellas?

00:09:53Oh, mom's expecting you tonight, 6 o'clock. Don't be late.
00:09:57Boy, get out of here. I'm grown.
00:09:59Late for the day.
00:10:01I don't want to hear nothing from the peanut gal.
00:10:03We light zones?
00:10:04Come on.
00:10:06Don't be late.
00:10:15Hi, have an appointment?
00:10:16Yes.
00:10:18This way.
00:10:23The finance division here at Marshall Holdings is new,
00:10:26and you are absolutely the best person for the job.
00:10:30Let's talk numbers.
00:10:31About $250,000 to start, plus expenses, benefits, and perks beyond belief.
00:10:41That's quite an offer.
00:10:43Yes, it is.
00:10:44So, are you in?
00:10:48I need 24 hours.
00:10:50I have several offers to consider.
00:10:53Yes, I'm sure you do.
00:10:5624 hours.
00:11:00It's fair, but under one condition.
00:11:06I'm listening.
00:11:07If you work for me, there can be absolutely no flirting with the boss.
00:11:18I wouldn't have it any other way, Mr. Marshall.
00:11:21I'm sure that is true.
00:11:22I look forward to hearing from you tomorrow.
00:11:23Yeah.
00:11:31Are you busy tonight?
00:11:32I'm throwing a dinner party, and you should come meet my husband.
00:11:38You know what?
00:11:39I have a prior engagement, but thank you very much.
00:11:42I'm sure you are an outstanding cook.
00:11:46Next time.
00:11:48Next time.
00:11:57Rites of passage is older than me, you, and this country.
00:12:01Are you saying we're uninformed?
00:12:04I'm saying that this program is the reason I'm sitting here and not sitting in a jail cell.
00:12:09The children in our community are being destroyed.
00:12:13If we build the bigger church tomorrow, more people with the same problems are just going to walk through the door.
00:12:19That's not progress.
00:12:21Your son is two steps away from being in jail.
00:12:24Your ideas don't work at home.
00:12:27How do you expect them to work here?
00:12:29Respectfully, Deacon, please leave my son out of this.
00:12:34Good evening, brothers.
00:12:35Evening, Pastor.
00:12:36How's everybody doing?
00:12:38Very well.
00:12:39Clarence, do you have time to go to Rutgers mortuary for me?
00:12:42Mom's expecting you tonight, six o'clock.
00:12:45Don't be late.
00:12:49Absolutely, yes, sir.
00:13:01Sister Florence, Reverend Peter sends his condolences.
00:13:13But I didn't lose much.
00:13:19Clarence, how long you been a deacon?
00:13:23A little over a year.
00:13:25Being a deacon has its privileges.
00:13:28I'm a married man.
00:13:30All deacons are.
00:13:36How's Joey doing?
00:13:37Without his father here, they're not going to let my child out of the jail.
00:13:45Let me see what I can do.
00:13:55I have to go.
00:13:56Come see me sometime.
00:14:00Yeah.
00:14:08Hey, baby.
00:14:14Rachel always said she was going to make it to the top.
00:14:19Well, she's definitely on her way.
00:14:22To my girl!
00:14:24Congratulations on finishing your MBA.
00:14:27You deserve the best life has to offer.
00:14:30I love you.
00:14:32I love you, too.
00:14:36I want to thank each and every one of you for being here tonight
00:14:40and celebrating this amazing...
00:14:46accomplishment with me.
00:14:49And I want everyone to know that I love you.
00:14:52I love you.
00:14:54I love you.
00:14:56I love you.
00:14:58I love you.
00:15:01I love you.
00:15:03I want everyone in this room to eat and drink and be merry and thank you.
00:15:08And I'm going to dance with each and every one of you tonight.
00:15:10Okay?
00:15:18Clarence Jones, I don't see why or how Rachel puts up with your lateness.
00:15:24Same reason I put up with you, it came with the package.
00:15:26Oh.
00:15:31Congratulations.
00:15:33You made it.
00:15:34That's right, I postponed my meeting.
00:15:37Oh, come on. I wish someone would have done this for me when I was graduating.
00:15:45Damien, I'd like you to meet my husband, Clarence.
00:15:48Oh, really? Yes, nice to meet you.
00:15:50Likewise, likewise.
00:15:52Damien offered me a job today.
00:15:54Rachel has a very promising future.
00:15:56You're already on first name basis, huh?
00:15:58She's very talented.
00:16:00That's why I married her.
00:16:01Rachel tells me you're a mechanic.
00:16:04I make an honest living.
00:16:05I bet you can do a mean tune-up.
00:16:07You work on foreign cars?
00:16:10I have to go.
00:16:12I just want to stop and say congratulations.
00:16:14Yeah.
00:16:15It's a pleasure meeting you.
00:16:16Have a beautiful evening.
00:16:18You too.
00:16:21I really don't like you.
00:16:22You're late.
00:16:25Again.
00:16:29Yes, I am.
00:16:31You all right, baby?
00:16:32Thanks, Mommy.
00:16:39Why didn't you wear the suit I left out for you?
00:16:42Why? What's the difference?
00:16:44Have you tried looking in the mirror?
00:16:46I look good.
00:16:50Look at your fingernails. Disgusting.
00:16:54My hands look like this when we first met.
00:16:56That makes it right.
00:16:58You know, Clarence, a little change never hurt anybody.
00:17:01All right, everybody. All right, all right.
00:17:02Listen up, listen up.
00:17:04This next song is dedicated to the lady of the hour,
00:17:07my girl, Rachel.
00:17:09Everybody give it up for my man, Buddy.
00:17:18Thank you very much.
00:17:20This song right here is just a little dedication to my mom
00:17:22for this special occasion.
00:17:24Dear Mama, you're the beat to my heart.
00:17:26Without your love with me, I fall apart.
00:17:29And I thank you for raising a young man.
00:17:31If I was down, you did your best to help me stand.
00:17:34You're a star in my eyes that I'll always shine.
00:17:37I love you, Mom.
00:17:53I didn't get married to be alone.
00:17:57I made a commitment to the church.
00:18:02What about your commitment to me?
00:18:05What about it?
00:18:13I won't come second to the church.
00:18:17You've been first in my life from the moment I saw you.
00:18:22I love you.
00:18:33Oh, hey.
00:18:35Chantel, hi.
00:18:37Hey, hey. Oh, girl, wow.
00:18:39You smell delicious.
00:18:41Like apples or something.
00:18:43Something like that.
00:18:44Yeah, wow.
00:18:45Oh, listen, you guys go ahead and talk, okay?
00:18:47Let me come back here and take care of my merchandise.
00:18:49Chantel, wow.
00:18:50You look incredible.
00:18:52Thank you. Thank you very much.
00:18:54So how's your fiancé?
00:18:56It's over. We broke up. I'm a single woman now.
00:18:59Clarence, Daddy just informed me you are going to be the new chair.
00:19:03I look forward to co-chairing the 50th anniversary committee with you.
00:19:06Oh, me too. I'll give you a call.
00:19:08Okay, great. Have a nice day.
00:19:14Wow.
00:19:16You haven't smiled at me like that in a really long time.
00:19:18Chairman.
00:19:20Well, I should have.
00:19:22Because you're beautiful.
00:19:26Now let's go get something to eat.
00:19:31Wow, Charlene.
00:19:33This is so good.
00:19:35Damn, these ribs.
00:19:37Make me want to slap myself and do a dance.
00:19:39Woo!
00:19:41Mama, will you stop?
00:19:43What's wrong?
00:19:44Ain't nothing wrong with a little soul, baby.
00:19:46Hit me.
00:19:47It's time to rise.
00:19:49Hey, baby, why don't you get your man a plate?
00:19:55You drunk again?
00:19:57Drunk?
00:19:58Let's chill.
00:19:59Nobody drunk, Clarence.
00:20:01You're making me look bad.
00:20:03Making you look bad? What are you trying to impress?
00:20:05You messing with one of these dudes?
00:20:08Is it you?
00:20:09You screwing my wife?
00:20:11Look here, boy.
00:20:12If I was riding that buck right there,
00:20:14your marriage would have been over.
00:20:15Monica, tell him about the big buck rider.
00:20:18Don't tell him.
00:20:19You're embarrassing me.
00:20:20Embarrassing you?
00:20:21Yes.
00:20:22Who are you trying to impress, huh?
00:20:23I'm lucky to have a man like me.
00:20:25Show plain looking self.
00:20:26Go put some makeup on.
00:20:27Bruce, that ain't cool.
00:20:28I'm cool.
00:20:29Bruce.
00:20:31Brother, you have got serious problems.
00:20:34Man, stop being so soft.
00:20:35Man up, player.
00:20:37You should never let the word man come out of your mouth.
00:20:39I am the man.
00:20:41I'm the man.
00:20:43Praise the Lord, say.
00:20:44You know what you're doing.
00:20:46Hey, who's going to have some communion with me?
00:20:49Everybody, let's go have a talk with God.
00:20:51Hey, come here, Charlene.
00:21:08That's beautiful.
00:21:11Babe, I
00:21:12owe you an apology.
00:21:14I'm going to make more time for you.
00:21:19Don't bother.
00:21:21And on our second honeymoon, we're going to Italy.
00:21:43You remembered.
00:21:59Pick a date.
00:22:03Later.
00:22:13Let's wait a minute.
00:22:18I had on the perfect gown.
00:22:20My hair was wet.
00:22:22Okay.
00:22:24And he took me to Zizzler.
00:22:26I didn't get out of the car.
00:22:28Then he had the nerve to ask me what was wrong.
00:22:30Okay, wait.
00:22:31You at least gave him a good night kiss, didn't you?
00:22:33Oh.
00:22:35One day these brothers will get it together.
00:22:37I know.
00:22:39I know.
00:22:40One day these brothers will get it together.
00:22:42He was white.
00:22:47Girl, you all ready?
00:22:49Yeah, I'm a little dizzy.
00:22:51So...
00:22:53So Clarence is taking you on a second honeymoon.
00:22:55Yeah.
00:22:57I'm so jealous.
00:22:59Can we switch?
00:23:01I really love you.
00:23:03Well, you know what?
00:23:05If I take this new job, I may not have time to come.
00:23:07You need to relax and take some time and smell the flowers.
00:23:08I don't have time to slow down.
00:23:10I had Buddy when I was so young, you know?
00:23:12And I just...
00:23:14I've dedicated so many years to him
00:23:16and I gotta make up for lost time.
00:23:18Clarence is trying to do right by you.
00:23:20Don't let him down.
00:23:22Sweetie, you better keep your eyes open
00:23:24because men don't just do those kind of things.
00:23:26It sounds like another woman to me.
00:23:28Excuse me?
00:23:30You know, Clarence has been spending so much time in that church
00:23:32you'd think he was having an affair.
00:23:35But you guys, do you think he's fooling around on me?
00:23:38Because you know what?
00:23:40I will hurt him.
00:23:42Yes.
00:23:44Clarence is a faithful man.
00:23:46I guess.
00:23:48Yes.
00:23:50Can you say Italy?
00:23:52God, I can't even get Bruce to walk me through the park
00:23:54or around the corner.
00:23:56Unless it's for a drink.
00:23:58Well, why do you put up with him?
00:24:00He's in a bit of a rut right now
00:24:02and I gotta stand by him.
00:24:04No one else will.
00:24:06Honey, if my man acted like that,
00:24:08you don't know my Bruce.
00:24:10He would never cheat on me.
00:24:13All right, come on.
00:24:15We have two more miles to go.
00:24:17Two miles?
00:24:19You're a mother.
00:24:33Here it is, Clint.
00:24:39I've given your offer some thought
00:24:41and I accept.
00:24:43All right.
00:24:45Uh, you know, the company is definitely
00:24:48going in the direction I want to travel.
00:24:50I just have one condition.
00:24:53Okay, that is?
00:24:56I'm planning on my second honeymoon
00:24:59so I'm gonna need a couple of weeks off.
00:25:02Hmm.
00:25:04You must think I'm a slave driver.
00:25:06You know, family is very important to me
00:25:08and if that's your condition,
00:25:10then we have a deal.
00:25:12Oh, by the way,
00:25:14I sometimes host social events for my employees.
00:25:16We'll do different things.
00:25:18Go out on my yacht for a dinner
00:25:20or take our corporate jet to Vegas for a show.
00:25:23Rent out a hotel for a weekend retreat,
00:25:25things like that.
00:25:27It allows me to show my appreciation
00:25:29and keep morale up.
00:25:31I hope clearance won't mind.
00:25:33I'll talk to him about it tonight.
00:25:35I'll let you know tomorrow.
00:25:36Well,
00:25:39Mrs. Jones, welcome to the family.
00:25:42Thank you, Mr. Marshall.
00:25:46Your outfit looks like big bucks, son.
00:25:49Oh, yeah, that's how we do it, player.
00:25:51You know what I mean?
00:25:53You, uh, put any thought into my job offer?
00:25:55Nah.
00:25:57I'm not really feeling that mechanic thing.
00:25:59It'll be good to get your hands dirty.
00:26:02What I want to do don't matter, right?
00:26:04So what, I'm just supposed to do what you say?
00:26:07Unless you have a better suggestion.
00:26:09Maybe I ain't trying to be better.
00:26:11Just being me.
00:26:13Now that is a brilliant statement.
00:26:15I bet you thought about that all day long.
00:26:17Anybody ever tell you you were a genius?
00:26:19Nah.
00:26:21I wonder why.
00:26:24Mmm.
00:26:26I brought chicken.
00:26:28What's that I smell?
00:26:30Hey, hey, ask Mr. Janies.
00:26:32Hey.
00:26:34What's wrong with you?
00:26:36Nothing.
00:26:38He don't want to work, he thinks the world owes him something.
00:26:40That ain't it.
00:26:42Boy, you better watch how you look at me.
00:26:44Don't make me lose my salvation in here tonight.
00:26:46I'm out.
00:26:51I can't even deal with him right now.
00:26:53I am so tired.
00:26:55Smells good.
00:26:57Yeah?
00:27:01Let me, uh,
00:27:02take this off for you.
00:27:06Mmm.
00:27:08That smells so good.
00:27:10Mm-hmm.
00:27:20Feels really nice.
00:27:23Guess what?
00:27:25What?
00:27:27I took a job today with Mr. Marshall.
00:27:29Well, now it's Mr. Marshall.
00:27:30I don't like him very much.
00:27:32That's strange.
00:27:34Because he speaks very highly of you.
00:27:36Oh, that's just a smokescreen.
00:27:39See, guys like him only want one thing.
00:27:42He respects my ability as a businesswoman.
00:27:45Well, I know a snake when I see one.
00:27:49Even if the snake's a woman?
00:27:55Especially when it's a woman.
00:27:57Especially when it's a woman.
00:28:11Hey.
00:28:13Man, that's cold.
00:28:15We've been friends for a long time.
00:28:17Yeah.
00:28:19Yeah, man, since we were kids.
00:28:21Like a brother to me.
00:28:23Mm-hmm.
00:28:24That's why I gotta tell you
00:28:26how concerned I am about your drinking.
00:28:28You gotta slow it down.
00:28:30Are you serious?
00:28:32Very.
00:28:35Oh, man.
00:28:37This church stuff is really getting to your head.
00:28:41Come by the lounge tonight?
00:28:43Nah, I gotta go to Rachel's art party.
00:28:46I guess us regular folk ain't invited.
00:28:51Oh, I remember when we first met,
00:28:52or when we first met up.
00:28:54Man, it's funny how time changes people.
00:28:57Yeah.
00:29:08You can't mess with me.
00:29:10Hold up.
00:29:12Hey, Chantel.
00:29:14What brings you around here?
00:29:16I was just in the area.
00:29:18I was wondering if maybe you had time
00:29:20to talk about the anniversary.
00:29:22Oh, don't mind me.
00:29:24I was just leaving.
00:29:31Get in there, dawg.
00:29:39Come here.
00:29:41Have a seat.
00:29:43Oh, sorry.
00:29:45Thanks.
00:29:47Please excuse all the grease and stuff.
00:29:49That's all right.
00:29:50It's refreshing to see a hardworking man.
00:29:53Right, so, um,
00:29:55what can I do for you?
00:29:57You know, I was thinking that we should set a schedule
00:30:00for the anniversary.
00:30:02How does a Wednesday evenings work for you?
00:30:08Um,
00:30:10eight o'clock is fine.
00:30:12I teach Bible study before then.
00:30:14You're such a dedicated man.
00:30:16Right.
00:30:18Well, you should tell my wife that.
00:30:20No, no, no, not really.
00:30:22Okay.
00:30:24Well, I'm here if you ever need me.
00:30:26Well, um,
00:30:28the anniversary falls on the second Sunday of September,
00:30:32so that gives us about a month
00:30:34to put the program together.
00:30:37Great, great.
00:30:39Good.
00:30:41Can you do me a favor?
00:30:43The next time we have a meeting,
00:30:45can you wear pants?
00:30:47Preferably the baggy kind.
00:30:50You know, MC Hammer,
00:30:52uh-oh, uh-oh, uh,
00:30:54two-ply,
00:30:56big baggy oversized pants
00:30:58because I cannot think
00:31:00with you
00:31:02dressed like that.
00:31:04Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't,
00:31:06I didn't realize.
00:31:08Look, I'm just joking.
00:31:10But I will see you at the meeting.
00:31:12Wednesday at eight.
00:31:14Wednesday at eight.
00:31:15Okay, see you then.
00:31:16You got it.
00:31:17All right.
00:31:18Bye, Clarence.
00:31:20Clarence.
00:31:22Baby.
00:31:24Baby.
00:31:26Sweetie.
00:31:27Hey.
00:31:28What?
00:31:29What are you doing?
00:31:30Honey, we have to be at the art show in an hour.
00:31:33Hey, babe.
00:31:35I missed you.
00:31:37What's with all the books?
00:31:39I have to do some studying for work before we leave.
00:31:43I've been doing some studying, too.
00:31:46Oh, really?
00:31:47What?
00:31:48You.
00:31:49Mm-hmm.
00:31:50Come on.
00:31:51And now I want to do some homework.
00:31:54So let's do it fast.
00:32:00I'm tired of fast, okay?
00:32:03Baby, no, no, no.
00:32:05I want some quality time.
00:32:09Okay.
00:32:11Don't say I never tried.
00:32:19Get me dirty.
00:32:20Stop it.
00:32:24Babe.
00:32:25What is it, huh?
00:32:28What, something came up?
00:32:29You can't go now?
00:32:33I'm gonna be late.
00:32:34Do you even love me?
00:32:36Of course I do.
00:32:37Why are you asking me that?
00:32:38Do you?
00:32:39Babe, of course I do.
00:32:43I can't even tell.
00:32:49Okay.
00:33:02That sounds terrible.
00:33:04Man, I told you I needed some new recording equipment.
00:33:06And I told you you need to work for it.
00:33:08Whatever, dog.
00:33:09I'm not your dog.
00:33:10I'm your father.
00:33:12I ain't got no father.
00:33:14Oh, really?
00:33:15You think I'm stupid?
00:33:16Clothes?
00:33:17Don't want to work?
00:33:18If you want to be a hustler, you can't live here.
00:33:21That ain't your call, partner.
00:33:24Watch your mouth.
00:33:25Clarence.
00:33:27Mama, he's crazy.
00:33:28Oh, you ain't seen crazy yet.
00:33:30He's going with me tonight.
00:33:31What?
00:33:37What just happened?
00:33:42All right, now.
00:33:43Get your ass on up.
00:33:44Go.
00:33:45You know the routine.
00:33:47That's it.
00:33:52You got it with the rest of your fellas.
00:34:01The way you're going, this is going to be your new home.
00:34:04You missed me with all that.
00:34:05This place is for busters.
00:34:07I'm just doing what I got to do to get a fatty.
00:34:09You feel me?
00:34:11How you doing, Mr. Jones?
00:34:12What?
00:34:13How are you?
00:34:14Don't worry about me.
00:34:15I'm all right.
00:34:17Your mother said this.
00:34:24Pops is gone.
00:34:28He's gone.
00:34:30He's gone.
00:34:32He's gone.
00:34:33He's gone.
00:34:34He's gone.
00:34:36I'm going to get you out of here.
00:34:37Yes, sir.
00:34:38Be strong.
00:34:46I've picked out two pieces I must have.
00:34:51Very, very much.
00:34:52This one I call the exhibitionist.
00:34:54Hey, girl.
00:34:55Oh.
00:34:57We'll see you later, Rachel.
00:34:59Oh, it's the barber.
00:35:01Nice meeting you, too.
00:35:02Welcome to the Corbett world.
00:35:04Well, you can have it.
00:35:05I need a drink.
00:35:10Fantastic turnout, Mrs. Jones.
00:35:14Hey.
00:35:16You came.
00:35:17As promised.
00:35:18This is my good friend, Charlene.
00:35:20Charlene, does Charlene have a surname?
00:35:23Harris.
00:35:25Mrs. Harris, I'm Damien Marshall.
00:35:27Nice to meet you.
00:35:28It's my pleasure, Mrs. Harris.
00:35:31You look ravishing.
00:35:33My goodness.
00:35:34I can't tell if the heart is on the walls or right here.
00:35:37Thanks.
00:35:38Well, I've often found that beauty has a price,
00:35:40so let's go see if I can afford it.
00:35:43Good evening.
00:35:46What is that look?
00:35:49What look?
00:35:50That look in your eye.
00:35:52Are you cheating on Claire?
00:35:53Stop it.
00:35:54Charlene, come on.
00:35:55You're over the top.
00:35:56That's my new boss.
00:35:57Oh, lord.
00:35:58I smell trouble.
00:35:59Will you stop, please, Charlene?
00:36:01Okay?
00:36:02You should have put that much thought
00:36:03into this little outfit of yours.
00:36:05Look at this.
00:36:07Like it?
00:36:08It's called the exhibitionist.
00:36:12Let's get some wine.
00:36:39Art is just my absolute very first passion.
00:36:43After love, of course.
00:36:44Those hands, I can see why.
00:36:46Excuse us, Mr. Marshall.
00:36:48Excuse me.
00:36:56God don't like ugly.
00:36:58Does that look real ugly to me?
00:37:00You know what, Charlene?
00:37:01You're overreacting, okay?
00:37:29Do you think I'm wrong for being upset with him?
00:37:32No, not at all.
00:37:37Hey, listen.
00:37:38Can I be frank?
00:37:39Yes, of course.
00:37:41You've gone back to school, got a great job,
00:37:44and are still looking for ways to elevate yourself.
00:37:48He's stayed stuck.
00:37:50So?
00:37:51He's stuck.
00:37:52He's stuck.
00:37:53He's stuck.
00:37:54He's stuck.
00:37:55He's stuck.
00:37:56He's stayed stuck.
00:37:57So, that leaves you with two choices.
00:38:00You'll either lower yourself to his level,
00:38:03or you can choose and find somebody on your level or above.
00:38:09You deserve better.
00:38:13I think so.
00:38:16Absolutely.
00:38:22Okay.
00:38:23I'm not ready for this.
00:38:24Yeah.
00:38:26I understand.
00:38:28You let me know
00:38:31when you're ready to elevate.
00:38:57Okay.
00:39:23Now, sit down.
00:39:26Okay.
00:39:27Okay.
00:39:28Okay.
00:39:56So...
00:39:58I was thinking...
00:40:00our second honeymoon...
00:40:04August 25th.
00:40:06How's that sound?
00:40:09I'm not gonna be able to go that weekend.
00:40:12Chantel and I have to work on the 50th anniversary celebration
00:40:16all the way to the second week of September.
00:40:20Chantel, huh?
00:40:23I'm so sick of this bullshit.
00:40:26Can you just put me first just once, Clarence?
00:40:30Gosh.
00:40:31Babe.
00:40:32No!
00:40:33Babe!
00:40:34No!
00:40:39I can't take this anymore.
00:40:41Take what?
00:40:49You...
00:40:51Maybe I don't do it for you anymore.
00:40:57You know, I don't get you.
00:41:01I've done everything that you've asked me to do.
00:41:03I just finished paying off your school bills.
00:41:05Do you have any idea how expensive your education was?
00:41:10Do you have any idea how expensive being ignorant is?
00:41:16No, let me tell you.
00:41:18It's about to cost you your life.
00:41:21Is this about Damien?
00:41:22Is this about Damien?
00:41:24Oh, don't you dare try to flip the script.
00:41:27Maybe Chantel got you feeling like Superman.
00:41:29Well, you know what? Take your entire butt to her!
00:41:32I can't believe you just said that.
00:41:33And I can't believe you're trying to act so innocent.
00:41:34I got a lot of things on my mind, and another woman ain't one of them.
00:41:38Dealing with you is a big enough headache.
00:41:40Maybe if your brain wasn't so small, your head wouldn't hurt.
00:41:45Then again, that's what I get for marrying a blue-collar worker.
00:41:50Are you saying I ain't good enough for you?
00:41:54I'm saying this marriage is broken.
00:41:57Fix it.
00:42:03Max!
00:42:06How are you, man? It's always good to see you.
00:42:08Always.
00:42:09I'm praying for you.
00:42:10You gotta come out of this. Watch.
00:42:16You said you wanted to speak to me?
00:42:18Clarence, I do. And I want to talk to you man-to-man.
00:42:23We love what you're doing at the church, there's no question.
00:42:25Your work is just phenomenal, and everybody loves it.
00:42:30But Clarence, your home is more important.
00:42:34Rachel must never feel as if she has to compete with the church for your affection.
00:42:40Well, I play games. She's my wife.
00:42:42She's not competing against anybody or anything.
00:42:44That's your point of view.
00:42:46That's your point of view.
00:42:48Her point of view may be entirely different.
00:42:51And in order to know her point of view, you have got to go home and listen.
00:42:58Promise me, man, that you'll just listen to her.
00:43:02Yes, Pastor.
00:43:05I will try.
00:43:06So I'm on another level.
00:43:08Doing it big, feel me?
00:43:12I'm gonna be a record company executive.
00:43:14You know, calling my own shots.
00:43:17Impressive.
00:43:19Now write down five black men who made a contribution to this civilization
00:43:25before we came to America as slaves.
00:43:33Hi. I hope I'm not interrupting.
00:43:35Not at all. What's on your mind?
00:43:37I have some program ideas that I wanted to run by you.
00:43:40Okay, well I'll be done in about 20 minutes.
00:43:42Oh, good. I'm going to have lunch at the cafe.
00:43:44Why don't you come by when you're finished?
00:43:46Okay.
00:43:47Alright, see you soon.
00:43:53Know thyself.
00:43:56You cannot know who you are if you don't know where you came from.
00:43:59Oh.
00:44:09Oh, goodness.
00:44:11Tell me about your father.
00:44:13My father, he worked very hard for us.
00:44:17But we weren't very close when I was young.
00:44:20And what about your mother?
00:44:21Ah, my mother. Now she was amazing.
00:44:26There's nothing she wouldn't do for her children.
00:44:29She died of cancer when I was about 23.
00:44:32I'm sorry. You must miss her.
00:44:35Yeah, very much.
00:44:37How did your father deal with your sickness?
00:44:40Well, that's when he became my hero.
00:44:42He nursed it to the very end.
00:44:44That's when I learned what being a man really was.
00:44:47You learned your lesson well.
00:44:51I like talking to you.
00:44:52Being a very attractive woman, I like to spend a lot more time with you.
00:44:58But that wouldn't be fair to my marriage.
00:45:02Well, there's nothing more attractive than an honest man.
00:45:06I respect that.
00:45:08Can we still work together?
00:45:10I wouldn't have it any other way.
00:45:12I wouldn't have it any other way.
00:45:43Thank you, Lord, for all you've done for me.
00:45:53It could have been me.
00:45:56I'm done with no food.
00:46:01That's left alone.
00:46:04All left alone.
00:46:07Without one friend.
00:46:09Or just another number.
00:46:12Well, that's right.
00:46:13You can't start, but you can't see.
00:46:16Because I let none of these things be.
00:46:19No, no.
00:46:20Every day by your power.
00:46:22That you keep on, that you keep on keeping me.
00:46:26I want to say.
00:46:30All you've done for me.
00:46:37I want to say.
00:46:43Give God praise in this place.
00:46:45Bless the name of the Lord.
00:46:55Somebody ought to praise him.
00:46:57Praise the Lord, everybody.
00:47:00The God we serve is an almighty God.
00:47:03He's a great God.
00:47:05He's a merciful God.
00:47:08He's a wonderful God.
00:47:10He's an omnipresent God.
00:47:12When Sister Tubman was navigating the railroad.
00:47:16He was there.
00:47:17When Sister Park sat down on that bus seat.
00:47:21And wouldn't take the back seat in that bus.
00:47:24But sat in that bus.
00:47:26He was sitting right with her.
00:47:29But I've got news for you.
00:47:31If God is there when you're doing good.
00:47:34He is also there when you're doing wrong.
00:47:37You know he's there when you slip that dollar.
00:47:40Or whatever you slip in the undergarments of that woman hanging on the pole.
00:47:45I want to tell you God is right there.
00:47:48When you beat a man over the head and take his wallet.
00:47:52Or you're pushing drugs on the side of the street.
00:47:55You know God is still right there.
00:47:59For I heard him say he knows your heart.
00:48:02And he knows your desires.
00:48:04And if you'll just repent of your sins.
00:48:07And say to the Lord.
00:48:09I want to do right by my family.
00:48:12I want to do right by my wife.
00:48:15I want to do right by my children.
00:48:18And I want to live the life that you'll have me to live.
00:48:21I guarantee he'll fill you with the power of the Holy Spirit.
00:48:26Somebody ought to let the Lord know.
00:48:29We've been made.
00:48:31Endured for a night.
00:48:33But joy comes in the morning.
00:48:37Somebody ought to praise the name of the Lord.
00:48:42Praise him.
00:48:44It's time to get right with God.
00:48:51God bless you.
00:48:59Hey.
00:49:01Hey, baby.
00:49:03What's up?
00:49:05Dinner's just about ready. Have a seat.
00:49:08I'm hungry.
00:49:10I think you're going to like this.
00:49:13A little something different.
00:49:16Here you go.
00:49:20What's this?
00:49:22Something a little different. It's French.
00:49:25Do I look like I want French food?
00:49:28I thought you'd like it, baby.
00:49:30See, that's your problem. You think too much.
00:49:32Nobody tell you to think.
00:49:34Bruce, you're drunk.
00:49:38Didn't nobody ask you if I was drunk?
00:49:41Talk too damn much.
00:49:44Get your behind up and fix me something I can eat. Now.
00:49:49Hey.
00:49:58Due to signs of an increase in inflation,
00:50:01the Fed wants to reduce wages by increasing unemployment.
00:50:05Now, this is a concern for our development sector
00:50:07because consumption rates will decrease,
00:50:10causing the real estate bubble to deflate.
00:50:13Thus, new home purchases will decrease.
00:50:17My suggestion is that we scale back our new home development
00:50:21and switch those assets into our manufacturing sector.
00:50:26Any questions?
00:50:28Thank you, Mrs. Jones. Outstanding.
00:50:34Let me call you later. Bye.
00:50:37No, sit, please.
00:50:40No, we're having dinner tonight with some of our clients and shareholders.
00:50:43Are you available, Mrs. Jones?
00:50:45Great job today. Thank you.
00:50:47Fantastic.
00:50:50Oh. On my desk in an hour?
00:50:58Rachel, this is Bill Chambers, one of our largest shareholders.
00:51:02Hello, Rachel. Pleasure to meet you.
00:51:03It's a pleasure to meet you.
00:51:05I am so excited to be part of this company.
00:51:08I've heard wonderful things about you.
00:51:10Well, good.
00:51:12Better let go of that hand.
00:51:13Oh, hi. How are you?
00:51:14Good to see you again.
00:51:15We don't want to be able to charge you.
00:51:16No, no, no.
00:51:18He's a jokester.
00:51:19He is. He's a good man, though.
00:51:20Listen, cheers.
00:51:21Cheers.
00:51:22To Marshall Holdings.
00:51:23That's it.
00:51:24Cheers.
00:51:25You are a star in there.
00:51:26I'm trying. I'm trying to impress you.
00:51:27Yeah.
00:51:28Is that okay?
00:51:29I'm so glad you came.
00:51:30I am too.
00:51:32Just a minute.
00:51:42Hiring you is the best decision I ever made.
00:52:02I'm sorry.
00:52:04I'm sorry.
00:52:28It's all that water.
00:52:29The rest of the fish is in the barrel.
00:52:34Party!
00:52:45Party!
00:53:05What is this?
00:53:07Give me my stuff.
00:53:16Shit.
00:53:18Are you stupid?
00:53:22Oh, gosh, baby.
00:53:23Look at me.
00:53:25Look at me. Are you okay?
00:53:27I want him out of my house.
00:53:29I want him out of my house.
00:53:34What did you do to him?
00:53:35What does it look like I did?
00:53:39How dare you hit my son?
00:53:40Does it look like I needed your permission?
00:53:42Where you been all night?
00:53:45You been seeing another man? Huh? Huh?
00:53:47You actually have to be a man in order for me to be seeing another man.
00:53:57You know what? You need to leave.
00:53:58I left a long time ago.
00:54:01Ask him what he's doing with this.
00:54:08What is this?
00:54:10That's my work. I need that.
00:54:15This is my client's gift to you.
00:54:16Yo, I'm not gonna...
00:54:17Huh?
00:54:18Shut up!
00:54:19You say another word and I will slap the spit out of your mouth with a hill in my shoe.
00:54:25I didn't raise you, buddy, to sell dope on the streets.
00:54:30If I find out you're selling this stuff again, I will personally turn your ass into the cops myself.
00:54:51Hey.
00:54:52Rough night?
00:54:54Yeah.
00:54:56You look stressed.
00:54:59Yeah, I know.
00:55:05Whoa. There's a knot there.
00:55:10Okay, I'm gonna have to send you to my private spa for a massage.
00:55:13You're doing just fine.
00:55:14Hey.
00:55:18Mr. Jones.
00:55:20Maybe you two should talk.
00:55:32You deserve each other.
00:55:35And you don't need him.
00:55:38Clarence?
00:55:40Clarence!
00:55:42Clarence!
00:55:44Clarence!
00:55:46Clarence, baby!
00:55:47Clarence!
00:55:48Clarence, baby!
00:56:02Listen, can we close this deal tonight?
00:56:03Of course.
00:56:04Can we close it tonight?
00:56:05Absolutely.
00:56:07Johnson, you hold on a second, please.
00:56:08Sure thing.
00:56:10I suggest you stop by the bathroom on your way to the office, clean your face, and get back to work.
00:56:16This is a professional environment. Act accordingly.
00:56:20Did you hear what I said?
00:56:21You're right.
00:56:22Yes.
00:56:23You're right. Mr. Marshall, please forgive me for my behavior.
00:56:29I'm back, Tom.
00:56:30Hey, Damien.
00:56:32Okay, tonight, eight o'clock.
00:56:33Sure.
00:56:34All right? The grill?
00:56:35All right.
00:56:36Okay, man.
00:56:37We can do this.
00:56:38Listen, you got me on this last deal, you can't get me again.
00:57:09Stop it.
00:57:14Rachel.
00:57:16Rachel, what happened?
00:57:19What happened?
00:57:25I messed up really bad.
00:57:29I was spending too much time with my boss.
00:57:34I really did.
00:57:35My boss.
00:57:38My parents found out.
00:57:43It's okay. It's okay.
00:57:46Did you sleep with him?
00:57:51Come here.
00:57:56I don't want to lose my husband.
00:57:58I don't want to lose him.
00:58:05All right.
00:58:06See, all I need now is a beautiful woman to motivate this beat I'm about to put on.
00:58:10You see, it's misguided brothers like yourself that the woman has slid into sin.
00:58:14The whole world looks at the modern black woman with contempt.
00:58:17Oh, and your cure is covering them from head to toe.
00:58:21Leaving them faceless without a voice.
00:58:23All women dress the way they do because they don't want to tempt men into lust.
00:58:26The woman's body is a beautiful creation of God.
00:58:29It's a blessing.
00:58:30So why should they have to suffer because y'all can't control y'all lustful ways?
00:58:34Oh, is that why you abuse so many women?
00:58:37Because they're divine.
00:58:39See, I don't have this thing figured out.
00:58:42But see, I don't pretend to have all the answers.
00:58:44It's incredible how you manage to rationalize your hypocrisy.
00:58:49Hold on, hold on.
00:58:50Hypocrisy?
00:58:51Yeah.
00:58:52I mean, having sex before marriage is a sin, is it not?
00:58:55And I guess you guys with your multiple wives are in a position of moral correctness.
00:59:00No, no, no. Tell me what it is.
00:59:01So it's like you have one wife to cook, one wife to wash, one wife to have babies for you,
00:59:06another two or three to work for you,
00:59:08and that one, that special one that you think is suitable enough to take out in public,
00:59:12now why don't y'all just call it what it really is?
00:59:14Oh, what's that?
00:59:15A plantation.
00:59:16Oh, that's cool. That's cool.
00:59:18I received that. I received that.
00:59:20Am I interrupting all this knowledge?
00:59:22No, no, no.
00:59:23See, Abdul was just leaving.
00:59:25See, the iron has sharpened the iron.
00:59:28Peace be unto you, my friend.
00:59:30All right, see you next time.
00:59:31How you doing, sister?
00:59:32How you doing, Abdul?
00:59:33I'm fine, thanks.
00:59:34Now, well, now isn't this a pleasant surprise?
00:59:38I need to buy something cute for Rachel.
00:59:40Something cute?
00:59:41Yeah.
00:59:42Uh-huh. Like what?
00:59:43I don't know. Something she's going to use.
00:59:45Hey, how about this?
00:59:47This is cute.
00:59:49How much?
00:59:50For you?
00:59:51Three kisses.
00:59:52Oh, no, it's no charge. No charge. Consider it a gift.
00:59:56For real?
00:59:57Yes, ma'am.
00:59:58Well, thank you. That's nice of you.
01:00:00When are you going to let me show you what a real man is?
01:00:03Well, Jasper.
01:00:04Hmm?
01:00:05Oh, oh, oh, oh, okay.
01:00:08The next time I see you.
01:00:09Yeah.
01:00:10Yeah, you be sure to point one out. Thank you.
01:00:12Monica, I'm him. I'm him.
01:00:15It's me.
01:00:16Wait, Monica. I'm him.
01:00:18Damn it, Abdul!
01:00:21Oh!
01:00:33Hi. My name's Charles.
01:00:37How you doing, Charles? I'm Monica.
01:00:40Wow, Monica's such a beautiful woman sitting here by herself.
01:00:43Oh, no. I'm just waiting for a friend.
01:00:46You know, I am late for a meeting, but I would love the opportunity to get to know you.
01:00:51Wow. You are breathtaking.
01:00:55And a beautiful smile. Wow.
01:00:58Well, I guess I should say thank you.
01:01:00No, just say yes.
01:01:01To what?
01:01:02Dinner.
01:01:03When?
01:01:04Tomorrow night, 830.
01:01:05Okay.
01:01:07Call me. Hmm?
01:01:09Deal.
01:01:17Could be contented
01:01:19Until I found the Lord
01:01:22Two, one, two, three, and...
01:01:25Could be contented
01:01:28Could be contented
01:01:31Could be contented
01:01:34Until I found the Lord
01:01:38Could be contented
01:01:41Until I found the Lord
01:01:45Could be contented
01:01:48Could be contented
01:01:51Could be contented
01:01:54Until I found the Lord
01:02:07Hey, Charlene.
01:02:09Hey, Clarence.
01:02:12How are you?
01:02:14I'm hanging in there.
01:02:16How's Rachel?
01:02:17Maybe you should ask her.
01:02:22I didn't know you were into cars.
01:02:25Oh, yeah.
01:02:27Well, I'm getting a big bonus check from the case my boss won.
01:02:31And I'm thinking about getting us a new car.
01:02:37What happened?
01:02:40Bruce and I got in a fight.
01:02:43We made up. Everything's okay now.
01:02:52Charlene.
01:02:55That is not all right.
01:03:00Okay. Okay.
01:03:04What is your problem?
01:03:06What you talking about, man?
01:03:07I just saw Charlene's face.
01:03:09Yeah, well, she got out of line, and I needed to check her.
01:03:12Maybe you should get some balls and check Rachel every once in a while.
01:03:19Man, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I messed up, man.
01:03:21That woman loves you.
01:03:23She's out there right now trying to buy you a new car with her bonus check,
01:03:26even after you beat her.
01:03:28Bonus check?
01:03:29Yeah. She wanted to surprise you.
01:03:31And for what?
01:03:32Look at you.
01:03:34Get out of my place.
01:03:38See, you need to take some time off to get your life together.
01:03:41Get out.
01:04:07Bruce?
01:04:08In here, baby.
01:04:12Baby, what are you doing?
01:04:14Making blackened chicken.
01:04:17It's definitely black.
01:04:19It's gonna be good, too.
01:04:22Come here, baby. Taste a little bit.
01:04:24Oh, no, baby.
01:04:26Oh, baby, I've been slaving over this hot stove all day for you.
01:04:28I even called my mama.
01:04:29Oh, you did?
01:04:30Yeah.
01:04:31But it's burnt.
01:04:32It's supposed to be as blackened chicken.
01:04:35It's supposed to be as blackened chicken.
01:04:38Besides, you like your meat dark anyway, don't you?
01:04:40Oh, you know I do.
01:04:42Mm-hmm.
01:04:47Come here, baby.
01:04:50I'm really sorry I hit you.
01:04:53And I really want to make this thing work.
01:04:56I do, too.
01:05:02I love you, baby.
01:05:04I love you, too.
01:05:07I love you, too.
01:05:20What's up, pretty lady?
01:05:22Hi, Jasmine. Bye, Jasmine.
01:05:23Oh, see that? Black men want to talk to a black woman, the first thing she do, she run off.
01:05:26Listen, sister, how long have we known each other?
01:05:29Years. Why?
01:05:31Because for some odd reason, I get excited every single time I see you.
01:05:35Okay, you know what, Jasper? I'm not in the mood for the pick-up lines today, okay?
01:05:38Okay, look, sister.
01:05:40I understand, but I'm serious.
01:05:46All those years, I liked you.
01:05:49But I just didn't feel good enough about myself to tell you.
01:05:53Are you being for real?
01:05:55Yes.
01:06:01Then why don't you call me?
01:06:03Ask me out on a date.
01:06:04Only if you say yes.
01:06:06Well, you're just going to have to call me and find out.
01:06:08I'll call you.
01:06:09All right.
01:06:10But...
01:06:12Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:06:13Don't make me take it back.
01:06:14Yeah, no, no. It's okay. It's okay. I'll call you.
01:06:17I'm going to call you. That's all. That's all. I'm going to call you.
01:06:24Babe?
01:06:26Hey.
01:06:29Oh, you get another look at you.
01:06:32My, my, my, like the song sings.
01:06:35How was your day?
01:06:36Good.
01:06:37Good?
01:06:38Yeah.
01:06:39Well, dinner's almost ready.
01:06:40All right.
01:06:41I'll be right back. I'm going to take a quick shower.
01:06:43Hurry back now because I have something very important to tell you.
01:06:46All right, baby.
01:06:47Okay.
01:06:48Mwah.
01:06:49Mwah.
01:06:50Mwah.
01:06:51Mwah.
01:06:52Mwah.
01:06:53Mwah.
01:06:54Mwah.
01:06:55Mwah.
01:06:56Mwah.
01:06:57Mwah.
01:06:58Mwah.
01:06:59Mwah.
01:07:00Mwah.
01:07:02Phone ringing.
01:07:06Hello?
01:07:08Who's this?
01:07:26Buddy!
01:07:28Get over here! Now!
01:07:31Get over here!
01:07:34What the hell are you doing?
01:07:35I'm doing what I gotta do.
01:07:36Are you trying to get killed, buddy?
01:07:38Huh?
01:07:39Why are you doing this to me?
01:07:41Ma, this ain't about you.
01:07:45I'm sorry, Ma.
01:07:46Don't come near me or touch me.
01:07:50I'm calling your father.
01:07:52I'm going to let Clarence live with you.
01:07:53I can't handle you anymore.
01:07:55That's too much.
01:07:56I don't know why you're calling him.
01:07:58You're pushing up on the little piece.
01:08:02Stop lying.
01:08:03I'm not lying.
01:08:04They at the blues right now.
01:08:09Get in the car.
01:08:10Now!
01:08:11Get in the car!
01:08:12I'm taking you home.
01:08:13Show is over!
01:08:15Thank you!
01:08:16Get your damn seatbelt on.
01:08:23Hey, baby.
01:08:24Where's Denna?
01:08:27Hello?
01:08:28She's gonna be late.
01:08:30What you talking about?
01:08:32You're a lying, cheating bastard!
01:08:35Why would you answer my phone?
01:08:36Go to hell!
01:08:37You better shut up!
01:08:38I'm outta here!
01:08:39You ain't going nowhere!
01:08:48I can't do this anymore!
01:08:52By the way,
01:08:54I'm pregnant.
01:08:57Charlene!
01:08:59Charlene!
01:09:15See, talking to you always makes me feel better.
01:09:18You sure you don't want to come by?
01:09:19I'd love to, but I got a lot of things to work out.
01:09:22Don't hate me.
01:09:23Of course not.
01:09:24Alright.
01:09:25Okay.
01:09:36Get home safe.
01:09:39How long?
01:09:41How long?
01:09:43How long have you been messing around with her?
01:09:47Nice to see you.
01:09:48How long?
01:09:50I am not messing around with Chantel.
01:09:52I'm a married man.
01:09:55That means something to me.
01:09:56What about you?
01:09:58Me?
01:09:59Are you serious?
01:10:01You don't get it, do you, Clarence?
01:10:04I'm a reflection of you.
01:10:06Whatever happened was just as much your fault as it was mine.
01:10:10You left the door wide open.
01:10:12I was your woman, but you stopped being my man.
01:10:16All I asked you to do was love me like you meant it.
01:10:21Touch me with your soul.
01:10:24Cherish me, and you couldn't.
01:10:27Do you remember these words?
01:10:30Who so findeth a wife findeth a good thing?
01:10:34But you just make me feel like dirt.
01:10:37You know, I don't know what happened between you and that dude.
01:10:40And I don't want to know.
01:10:42Because I might have to do something bad to him.
01:10:44But what I do know is I want my family back.
01:10:50I'm sorry.
01:10:52I'm sorry.
01:10:53Forgive me.
01:10:56Look, there is no me without you.
01:11:01I just need some time to work it out.
01:11:05Do you understand what I'm saying?
01:11:11You just got to give me time.
01:11:17So what are you going to do?
01:11:20I love my husband, but I don't love the man he's become.
01:11:23I'm leaving it in God's hands.
01:11:26You need a new man.
01:11:28I disagree.
01:11:30When you're in a rut and you can't get out,
01:11:32the best thing you can do is call on God.
01:11:35Wow. What's got into you?
01:11:37Really?
01:11:41Mr. Damien Marshall almost ruined my family.
01:11:45But God heard my cries.
01:11:47Clarence is coming back to me.
01:11:50What's wrong with you?
01:11:51I can't believe this.
01:11:53I went out with him.
01:11:54What?
01:11:55He told me his name was Charles Marshall.
01:11:57That no good lying dog.
01:11:58Oh no.
01:11:59That's him.
01:12:00I'm going to go with him.
01:12:01Wait, wait, wait.
01:12:02Monica, hey, hey.
01:12:04Yes, girl.
01:12:05He played me.
01:12:06He told me he just got in some crazy relationship
01:12:08with some desperate married woman who was stalking him.
01:12:10Oh, wait. He said that?
01:12:11I felt bad for him.
01:12:12I was not stalking him.
01:12:14Okay, you know what?
01:12:15No, you stay here.
01:12:16I'm going to go give him a beat down.
01:12:17This man almost ruined my marriage.
01:12:19You know, if all he wanted was sex,
01:12:21all he had to do was say so.
01:12:22Relax.
01:12:23No, no, you know what?
01:12:24Relax.
01:12:25Let that man be.
01:12:26Now, you both played yourselves.
01:12:28My mama used to tell me that if you lie down with dogs,
01:12:31you end up with fleas.
01:12:33You're cute, Charlotte.
01:12:34You ready to go?
01:12:35Okay.
01:12:39He ain't worth it.
01:12:48You can't do that.
01:12:49You can't do that.
01:12:50Sit down.
01:12:53Oh, Kim.
01:12:55Your father recently passed away.
01:12:58Without a man in the home,
01:13:00it's likely that Joey's going to get in more trouble.
01:13:03Not so.
01:13:05Joey's a good boy.
01:13:06Well, we appreciate your confidence.
01:13:08He's a good boy.
01:13:09He's a good boy.
01:13:10He's a good boy.
01:13:11He's a good boy.
01:13:12He's a good boy.
01:13:13He's a good boy.
01:13:14He's a good boy.
01:13:15He's a good boy.
01:13:16We appreciate your confidence.
01:13:18But if you could control him,
01:13:19he wouldn't be here right now.
01:13:22Sir?
01:13:24Joey is from a good family.
01:13:26It's in his nature to do the right thing.
01:13:30He stumbled down the wrong path,
01:13:31but now he's back on track.
01:13:34His future is filled with possibility.
01:13:37This moment, right now, is critical.
01:13:42Sir, all I'm asking
01:13:43is that you listen to the voice of righteousness inside of you
01:13:49and send this boy home.
01:13:52Okay.
01:13:53We'll let you know our decision.
01:13:57Listen, I have to go talk to somebody.
01:13:59Okay?
01:14:06I see this young thing
01:14:07She's so fine, divine
01:14:08But I'm on my grind, man
01:14:10Ain't got no time for chasing and thinking
01:14:12Debating whether she gonna ride or shoot me
01:14:14She know my pipeline like my head, man
01:14:16It ain't a game when I bring it to you
01:14:18I hustle for the muscle, play it, that's how I do it
01:14:21Yeah, so don't test me
01:14:32Man, what do you want?
01:14:33Buddy, I'm gonna need you to stop selling dope.
01:14:36If it's money you need,
01:14:37we will work something out.
01:14:43It's a little too late for that, partner.
01:15:08Police! Get somebody out of the car, man!
01:15:10Everybody call the police!
01:15:12Police!
01:15:33Hello?
01:15:34Yes.
01:15:36Oh my God.
01:15:42Oh my God.
01:15:57Oh my God.
01:15:59Buddy?
01:16:00Buddy, baby, it's me.
01:16:02What happened to my son?
01:16:03We got room for him, come on.
01:16:04Where are you?
01:16:05Wait a minute, this is my son!
01:16:07Wait a minute, no!
01:16:09I got him!
01:16:15I knew we was gonna find you here.
01:16:17You're not gonna find an answer in no box.
01:16:21Rachel?
01:16:22Hi.
01:16:23Is he alright?
01:16:24I don't know.
01:16:25You spoke to Clarence about him?
01:16:26He's not picking up.
01:16:28Damn it.
01:16:29Thanks, Lorraine.
01:16:31Mrs. Jones?
01:16:32Yes.
01:16:33Oh, hi, I'm Dr. Gibbs.
01:16:34Your son sustained several gunshot wounds to his upper torso,
01:16:38and his kidneys are not functioning well.
01:16:41It's okay.
01:16:42Okay?
01:16:43Okay.
01:16:44He's had problems with his kidneys since he was a boy.
01:16:46Alright, I'd really like to screen all the family members for possible donors
01:16:50in case we need a kidney replacement.
01:16:52Okay.
01:16:53Alright, I'm gonna get the paperwork.
01:16:57Did you call the shop?
01:16:58Called everywhere.
01:17:00Call Jasper.
01:17:01Call Jasper.
01:17:02I'll take that one.
01:17:03Here, give me, give me, give me, give me.
01:17:06It's okay.
01:17:07If you guys really want to get your woman back,
01:17:09know this.
01:17:11A woman will never cheat on you or disrespect you
01:17:14if she knows that she's the center of your world.
01:17:18Yeah, yeah.
01:17:19Okay, alright?
01:17:20It's simple.
01:17:21Let's just keep this simple.
01:17:22Her line's been slipping.
01:17:24Hold on one second.
01:17:25Yo.
01:17:26Yo, hold on, hold on, hold on.
01:17:27It's Rachel.
01:17:28What?
01:17:29Okay, we don't...
01:17:30What's wrong?
01:17:31Hey, buddy's been shot.
01:17:34Hey, buddy.
01:17:36It's me.
01:17:39Sweetie, you're gonna be alright.
01:17:42You're gonna be alright.
01:17:43Hear me?
01:17:56You're not a match.
01:17:57Okay, I don't understand what you're talking about.
01:17:59Can you call another hospital?
01:18:00No.
01:18:01Baby.
01:18:02Shut up.
01:18:03I can't help him.
01:18:04I'm not a match.
01:18:05What are you talking about?
01:18:06I'm Dr. Gibbs.
01:18:07Buddy needs a kidney transplant.
01:18:09And Rachel is not a blood or tissue match.
01:18:12Take mine.
01:18:13Okay, well, we need to screen you first.
01:18:15Buddy and I have the same blood type.
01:18:17Take mine.
01:18:18Baby, are you sure?
01:18:22He's our son.
01:18:23What is there to think about, huh?
01:18:25Okay, well, we still have to screen you first, alright?
01:18:27Let's go.
01:18:28We'll be right here, Rachel, okay?
01:18:29Alright.
01:18:30You're gonna be alright, y'all.
01:18:32Okay.
01:18:46Hey.
01:18:49The surgery's over.
01:18:50Oh.
01:18:52It is?
01:18:53It looks good.
01:18:54It does?
01:18:55Yeah.
01:18:56It takes a day for the kidney to start working.
01:18:59Okay.
01:19:00So we're gonna watch Buddy really closely.
01:19:02Okay.
01:19:03Clarence lost a lot of blood, so I'm gonna be watching him closely, too.
01:19:05Okay.
01:19:09Can I see him?
01:19:10Yes.
01:19:11That's great.
01:19:12Yes.
01:19:13Okay.
01:19:16Wow.
01:19:17Thank you, Jesus.
01:19:18Alright, go ahead.
01:19:25Rachel, honey, he's waking up.
01:19:31Hey.
01:19:32Mama.
01:19:33Hi, sweetie.
01:19:35What happened?
01:19:36You had to have a kidney replaced.
01:19:38Oh, wow.
01:19:40Clarence gave you one of his.
01:19:42He did?
01:19:44You're gonna be fine.
01:19:47Get the doctor!
01:19:49Everyone, get the doctor!
01:19:50Get the doctor!
01:19:51Get the doctor!
01:19:52Get the doctor!
01:19:53Get the doctor!
01:19:55Get Rachel! Get Rachel!
01:19:56Get Rachel!
01:19:57Mommy!
01:20:00Rachel!
01:20:01Get the doctor!
01:20:02Get out of here!
01:20:03Rachel!
01:20:04Get the doctor!
01:20:05Rachel!
01:20:06Get the doctor!
01:20:07Rachel!
01:20:14God, it's been a long time since I've approached your throne,
01:20:18but I come boldly asking that you spare Clarence's life.
01:20:22Please, God, let him live.
01:20:25If you give his life back to us, I'd give my life to you.
01:20:30A life for a life.
01:20:35Oh, we got a rhythm.
01:20:38Let's get him to ICU so we can watch him more closely.
01:20:42Thank you, Jesus.
01:20:46Thank you, God.
01:20:49Thank you, God.
01:21:22How do you feel, baby?
01:21:26I'm not gonna tell you
01:21:29how beautiful you are,
01:21:33but I want you to know
01:21:35that I love you.
01:21:37I love you so much.
01:21:40How's Buddy?
01:21:42Yo, I'm good, Pop.
01:21:45Everything is good.
01:21:46Hey.
01:21:48I'm okay.
01:21:51When there's nothing left to do,
01:21:53you just stand.
01:21:58Let the Lord walk through you.
01:22:02After you've done all you can,
01:22:08you just stand.
01:22:12I miss you.
01:22:14I miss you.
01:22:17Be nice to me.
01:22:19Be kind to me.
01:22:21And thank the Lord, with that bondage done,
01:22:25can you just stand?
01:22:29Stand and enjoy, because God has a purpose, hey, yeah.
01:22:39God is a plan, and God will do it too.
01:22:44When you've done all you can and did,
01:22:50it seems like it's hard to make it through.
01:22:55Well, you just stand.
01:23:00You just stand.
01:23:04You're gonna stand.
01:23:08You just gonna stand.
01:23:12Through the storm.
01:23:15Stand through the rain.
01:23:20And God will stand.
01:23:23He won't be late.
01:23:27Hold on.
01:23:30You've got to be strong.
01:23:34And God will hold.
01:23:38He won't be long.
01:23:42Stand.
01:23:44Stand.
01:23:46Stand.
01:23:49You've got to, you've got to, you've got to, you've got to.
01:23:57After you've done all you can.
01:24:01After you've done all you can.
01:24:06After you've done all you can.
01:24:09After you've done all you can.
01:24:14You just stand.
01:24:29Hallelujah.
01:24:36God bless you.
01:24:39Jesus says, come unto me.
01:24:42All ye that labor and are heavy laden,
01:24:45and I will give you rest.
01:24:47The door of the church is open.
01:24:50It's time to come and receive Jesus as your Savior.
01:24:55It's time to turn yourself over to Him.
01:24:59He's calling you.
