00:00:00,296 --> 00:00:02,713
(soft music)
2
00:00:05,576 --> 00:00:07,587
(groaning)
3
00:00:07,587 --> 00:00:10,329
(air whooshing)
4
00:00:10,329 --> 00:00:13,309
(explosion booms)
5
00:00:13,309 --> 00:00:15,976
(air whooshing)
6
00:00:22,951 --> 00:00:23,828
(camera shutter snaps)
7
00:00:23,828 --> 00:00:26,828
(people chattering)
8
00:00:29,260 --> 00:00:30,333
- Good afternoon.
9
00:00:31,730 --> 00:00:33,580
I would like to thank each of you
10
00:00:33,580 --> 00:00:36,310
for taking time out of your busy schedules
11
00:00:36,310 --> 00:00:40,630
to be here as I announce my college choice
12
00:00:40,630 --> 00:00:42,780
where I'll be playing
baseball next season.
13
00:00:43,810 --> 00:00:46,010
I know that everyone has been waiting
14
00:00:46,010 --> 00:00:49,820
for me to make this decision
for the past two seasons now,
15
00:00:49,820 --> 00:00:52,800
and I would like to thank
each and every one of you,
16
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,970
including my coaches, my teammates,
17
00:00:55,970 --> 00:00:58,730
my parents, and my friends
18
00:00:58,730 --> 00:01:01,573
for being so patient with
me during this period.
19
00:01:02,570 --> 00:01:06,490
This has been a hard, long,
and thought out decision,
20
00:01:06,490 --> 00:01:09,703
and I hope that for everyone,
it will be worth the wait.
21
00:01:10,890 --> 00:01:15,610
And now it gives me great
pleasure to announce
22
00:01:15,610 --> 00:01:20,110
that I, Ricky Dupree, will
take my superior talents
23
00:01:20,110 --> 00:01:24,360
and attend college right
here in the city of Chicago.
24
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,030
Next year I will be
playing college baseball
25
00:01:27,030 --> 00:01:29,977
for the Chicago University Bandits.
26
00:01:32,491 --> 00:01:33,652
Thank you!
27
00:01:33,652 --> 00:01:36,069
(applauding)
28
00:01:51,858 --> 00:01:54,775
(soft piano music)
29
00:02:53,570 --> 00:02:56,280
- [Nicholas] Take me out to the ball game.
30
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:57,303
Just take me out.
31
00:02:58,670 --> 00:03:01,120
Take me as far away from
this place as I can get.
32
00:03:02,780 --> 00:03:04,263
My name is Nicholas Dupree.
33
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,733
This is my family, and this is my story.
34
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,070
I live in an upper class black family
35
00:03:13,070 --> 00:03:15,100
in the suburbs of Chicago.
36
00:03:15,100 --> 00:03:16,210
I'm a freshman in high school
37
00:03:16,210 --> 00:03:18,880
and I've always wanted
to live a regular life.
38
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,163
You know, find my own path.
39
00:03:22,780 --> 00:03:24,210
But normal never lived in this house.
40
00:03:24,210 --> 00:03:26,140
You see, my environment at home
41
00:03:26,140 --> 00:03:29,100
was so dysfunctional that I
did not even wanna introduce
42
00:03:29,100 --> 00:03:31,663
one single friend of mine
to anybody in my family.
43
00:03:33,030 --> 00:03:35,373
My father Farris Dupree
is a very proud man,
44
00:03:36,370 --> 00:03:38,935
as well as a very successful businessman.
45
00:03:38,935 --> 00:03:42,570
But he always wanted to be a
major league baseball player.
46
00:03:42,570 --> 00:03:45,210
Now even though he fell
short of his dream,
47
00:03:45,210 --> 00:03:46,960
he made for sure that
all three of his sons
48
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,958
would become all world in the
sport that he loved, baseball.
49
00:03:50,958 --> 00:03:52,720
(knocking on door)
50
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,870
My older brother, Ricky
was well on his way
51
00:03:54,870 --> 00:03:56,470
to being a great player one day.
52
00:03:57,590 --> 00:04:00,500
As for me, I was having a little trouble
53
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:02,173
getting out of the starting blocks.
54
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:04,800
- [Farris] Nicholas!
55
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,870
Son, are you hard of hearing?
56
00:04:06,870 --> 00:04:08,610
Did you hear me knocking at the door?
57
00:04:08,610 --> 00:04:11,243
- Of course I heard you,
I'm not deaf, you know.
58
00:04:11,243 --> 00:04:13,020
- [Farris] Well you need to hustle it up.
59
00:04:13,020 --> 00:04:14,203
Time is running out.
60
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,367
- Alright, alright,
I'll be out in a minute.
61
00:04:17,367 --> 00:04:19,690
- [Farris] You'll be ready in a minute?
62
00:04:19,690 --> 00:04:22,400
You get your butt in the
car right now, young man.
63
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,473
It's time to go!
64
00:04:24,543 --> 00:04:27,543
(door shuts loudly)
65
00:04:41,090 --> 00:04:44,510
- Nicholas, when you go out there today,
66
00:04:44,510 --> 00:04:47,460
can you try your best to focus?
67
00:04:47,460 --> 00:04:50,520
Now you know I hate doing
this just as much as you do.
68
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,870
- Look, I know practice
makes perfect and everything
69
00:04:52,870 --> 00:04:55,050
but this is getting ridiculous!
70
00:04:55,050 --> 00:04:56,103
- Boy sit up!
71
00:04:57,830 --> 00:04:59,900
Is that gon' be your excuse
for everything in life?
72
00:04:59,900 --> 00:05:00,733
- No.
73
00:05:00,733 --> 00:05:02,360
- You can't run and
hide from your problems.
74
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,310
- No that's not it mom and you know it.
75
00:05:05,170 --> 00:05:06,250
- I'm listening.
76
00:05:06,250 --> 00:05:09,883
- Look, I love playing baseball.
77
00:05:10,770 --> 00:05:12,910
In fact, I love playing baseball
78
00:05:12,910 --> 00:05:14,880
just as much as the next person.
79
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:15,990
- Go on.
80
00:05:15,990 --> 00:05:18,010
- But I don't wanna
play for the simple fact
81
00:05:18,010 --> 00:05:19,703
that my father is making me play.
82
00:05:23,415 --> 00:05:25,915
(car honking)
83
00:05:27,910 --> 00:05:29,710
- Hey, I wish you people would come on!
84
00:05:29,710 --> 00:05:30,580
- See?
85
00:05:30,580 --> 00:05:31,957
- Nicholas, that's not
fair and you know it.
86
00:05:31,957 --> 00:05:33,870
I mean what's so wrong with parents
87
00:05:33,870 --> 00:05:36,270
trying to set high standards
for their children?
88
00:05:37,810 --> 00:05:38,760
- Parents you know.
89
00:05:41,225 --> 00:05:42,980
Y'all just don't get it.
90
00:05:42,980 --> 00:05:45,530
The higher the expectations
you place on your kids,
91
00:05:46,850 --> 00:05:48,300
the more they're gonna rebel.
92
00:05:51,202 --> 00:05:53,570
(car honking)
93
00:05:53,570 --> 00:05:54,473
Coming father.
94
00:06:01,338 --> 00:06:04,880
- Alright Nicholas, let's
get ready to play ball.
95
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:09,140
Now son, I want you to
concentrate on what you're doing.
96
00:06:09,140 --> 00:06:12,210
Now your sole purpose
for being out here today
97
00:06:12,210 --> 00:06:13,420
is to get better.
98
00:06:13,420 --> 00:06:17,240
You're not out here to
have fun or play games son.
99
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,140
This is a serious matter.
100
00:06:20,140 --> 00:06:21,000
Do you hear me?
101
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,850
Nicholas, I'm talking to you.
- Yes, I hear you.
102
00:06:22,850 --> 00:06:25,263
- Alright, don't let me
have to repeat myself.
103
00:06:26,130 --> 00:06:27,393
Alright, let's play ball.
104
00:06:33,785 --> 00:06:36,785
(upbeat drum music)
105
00:06:44,718 --> 00:06:46,108
- Woo!
106
00:06:46,108 --> 00:06:47,972
Come on now, let's play ball!
107
00:06:47,972 --> 00:06:48,805
Woo!
108
00:07:07,858 --> 00:07:09,775
- Come on son, come on.
109
00:07:15,682 --> 00:07:19,800
Watch the ball son, watch the ball.
110
00:07:39,378 --> 00:07:41,682
Nicholas, what are you doing?
111
00:07:41,682 --> 00:07:43,460
What are you doing, Nicholas?
112
00:07:43,460 --> 00:07:45,890
Why can't you just
concentrate on the game?
113
00:07:45,890 --> 00:07:47,103
Where is your mind?
114
00:07:48,090 --> 00:07:48,963
Oh, Nicholas!
115
00:08:06,868 --> 00:08:09,868
(upbeat rock music)
116
00:08:58,955 --> 00:09:01,372
(drum music)
117
00:09:06,117 --> 00:09:07,377
What are you doing?
118
00:09:07,377 --> 00:09:08,390
Just tell me what you're doing!
119
00:09:08,390 --> 00:09:10,690
Now I told you this was a
serious matter, didn't I?
120
00:09:10,690 --> 00:09:13,103
I asked you to concentrate
on what you're doing
121
00:09:13,103 --> 00:09:14,127
and what do you do?
122
00:09:14,127 --> 00:09:15,427
You just go and mess everything?
123
00:09:15,427 --> 00:09:16,466
- You act like it's the World Series.
124
00:09:16,466 --> 00:09:17,752
- Ricky knows what he's doing!
125
00:09:17,752 --> 00:09:19,017
And what's wrong with you?
126
00:09:19,017 --> 00:09:20,427
You out here in the field, right?
127
00:09:20,427 --> 00:09:24,767
I told you to concentrate
in every game that you do.
128
00:09:24,767 --> 00:09:27,350
(gentle music)
129
00:09:38,170 --> 00:09:39,003
Nicholas.
130
00:09:41,010 --> 00:09:41,843
Nicholas, come and sit down son!
131
00:09:45,893 --> 00:09:46,934
Carol, where is that boy?
132
00:09:46,959 --> 00:09:48,840
Nicholas!
- Farris!
133
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,930
Don't start this tonight, please?
134
00:09:50,930 --> 00:09:52,680
Can we have just one decent meal?
135
00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:54,840
Just one!
- Sure baby,
136
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,560
we can have a peaceful meal
together, it's no problem.
137
00:09:58,560 --> 00:10:02,360
I just, all I wanna do is
just have a father and son
138
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:03,800
chat with the boy, that's all.
139
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:04,980
Nicholas!
140
00:10:04,980 --> 00:10:06,550
Will you come and sit down?
141
00:10:08,521 --> 00:10:09,354
- What's up, Pop?
142
00:10:09,354 --> 00:10:10,687
What's on your mind?
143
00:10:11,763 --> 00:10:16,063
- There's a lot on my mind, lately.
144
00:10:16,980 --> 00:10:20,053
And I have a pretty good
idea as to what it is.
145
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,803
It's been really bothering
me, really bothering me, son.
146
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:31,997
So I'm just gonna go ahead
and ask the question myself.
147
00:10:33,397 --> 00:10:35,647
(chuckles)
148
00:10:36,980 --> 00:10:37,883
Who's the girl?
149
00:10:39,250 --> 00:10:41,545
- Who's the girl?
I have no idea...
150
00:10:41,645 --> 00:10:43,558
- You heard me, Nicholas!
- What girl?
151
00:10:43,558 --> 00:10:45,920
- You heard me! Who is the girl?
- Farris.
152
00:10:45,977 --> 00:10:47,810
- I have no idea
what you're talking about.
153
00:10:47,810 --> 00:10:49,060
- Boy, you're in trouble.
154
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:52,903
- You know who I'm talking about.
155
00:10:54,670 --> 00:10:57,570
You gon' sit there at my table, son,
156
00:10:57,570 --> 00:10:59,900
and play the nut role with me?
157
00:10:59,900 --> 00:11:01,510
Is that what you're going to do?
158
00:11:01,510 --> 00:11:02,343
- No!
- Huh?
159
00:11:02,343 --> 00:11:04,450
You're gonna try to make me think
160
00:11:04,450 --> 00:11:06,643
that I'm the one that's going crazy?
161
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,040
- Baby.
- Baby what?
162
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,360
- What I think he's trying to tell you
163
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,590
is that he's doing the best that he can.
164
00:11:13,590 --> 00:11:14,770
Now at this point, you're just being
165
00:11:14,770 --> 00:11:16,150
a little too hard on him.
166
00:11:16,150 --> 00:11:17,800
- Too hard?
- Yes!
167
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,870
- Please, Carol, please!
168
00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:25,050
I'm not being too hard on
the boy, he's a teenager!
169
00:11:25,050 --> 00:11:27,380
That's what the boy is, all he wants to do
170
00:11:27,380 --> 00:11:30,840
is hang out all night, hang
out and talk with the girls
171
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,190
and then turn around and
hold his own britches.
172
00:11:33,190 --> 00:11:34,390
- At least you give me
credit for something.
173
00:11:34,390 --> 00:11:35,832
- What did you say?
- Nothing.
174
00:11:35,832 --> 00:11:38,343
- Say that again, what
did you mumble over there?
175
00:11:40,300 --> 00:11:41,315
- Did it ever occur to you
176
00:11:41,315 --> 00:11:43,165
that I don't want this as bad as you?
177
00:11:44,450 --> 00:11:46,210
Did you ever think that
maybe it's in the cards
178
00:11:46,210 --> 00:11:47,603
for me to be a regular kid?
179
00:11:51,100 --> 00:11:52,823
- Son, I want you to listen to me.
180
00:11:55,256 --> 00:11:57,423
And I want you to listen to me real good.
181
00:11:58,830 --> 00:12:02,763
There's no such thing as a regular kid.
182
00:12:03,820 --> 00:12:06,410
You are special, son.
183
00:12:06,410 --> 00:12:09,453
You are born special.
184
00:12:10,310 --> 00:12:12,173
And you're going to be special.
185
00:12:13,110 --> 00:12:15,455
- Wow, you know, I wonder
if every other family
186
00:12:15,455 --> 00:12:17,900
on this block has to
sit down and go through
187
00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:19,660
what we go through just
to have a decent meal
188
00:12:19,660 --> 00:12:20,993
one night out of the week.
189
00:12:24,030 --> 00:12:25,990
- Nicholas, you're going straight to bed
190
00:12:25,990 --> 00:12:27,780
without having any dinner tonight.
191
00:12:27,780 --> 00:12:29,960
- Farris!
- Right now, Farris nothing,
192
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:34,093
you are going to bed tonight
Nicholas without no dinner!
193
00:12:35,680 --> 00:12:36,513
- Bed, but I--
194
00:12:36,513 --> 00:12:40,833
- You may be excused right now.
195
00:13:00,430 --> 00:13:04,640
I don't know why you just
keep on defending that boy.
196
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:05,473
- Because he's our son
197
00:13:05,473 --> 00:13:07,780
and I think you took it a little too far.
198
00:13:07,780 --> 00:13:09,260
- Too far?
199
00:13:09,260 --> 00:13:11,030
Carol, please!
200
00:13:11,030 --> 00:13:12,040
You're the one that treats him
201
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,504
like a damn baby all the time!
202
00:13:14,504 --> 00:13:16,131
- What the!
203
00:13:16,131 --> 00:13:17,960
(laughs)
204
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,570
- Yeah, all the time!
205
00:13:19,570 --> 00:13:21,320
- I don't know why you're
getting upset with me,
206
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,090
I didn't do anything wrong.
207
00:13:23,090 --> 00:13:28,090
- Because you just make it
too easy for him, Carol!
208
00:13:28,740 --> 00:13:30,360
Just too easy!
209
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:31,943
If someone just would've,
210
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,580
well, if someone just
would've been hard on me,
211
00:13:36,580 --> 00:13:38,980
then maybe, just maybe I wouldn't have
212
00:13:38,980 --> 00:13:41,850
to wear a shirt and tie everyday.
213
00:13:41,850 --> 00:13:44,933
- Farris, give me a break,
the boy is only 15 years old.
214
00:13:46,090 --> 00:13:48,647
In all seriousness, if you
keep treating him this way,
215
00:13:48,647 --> 00:13:51,410
he can cause all kinds of problems.
216
00:13:51,410 --> 00:13:52,243
But you know what?
217
00:13:52,243 --> 00:13:53,683
By then it's gonna be too late.
218
00:13:54,925 --> 00:13:57,235
(soft piano music)
219
00:13:57,235 --> 00:13:59,818
(Shower water running)
220
00:14:06,095 --> 00:14:07,503
Hey girl, what you doing?
221
00:14:10,490 --> 00:14:12,650
Oh no, nothing's wrong.
222
00:14:12,650 --> 00:14:13,653
No, I'm fine.
223
00:14:16,269 --> 00:14:17,102
I just called to see
224
00:14:17,102 --> 00:14:18,863
how my big sister was doing, that's all.
225
00:14:22,613 --> 00:14:23,850
Hmm mm.
226
00:14:23,850 --> 00:14:26,943
- Nicholas, please and for your sake,
227
00:14:28,370 --> 00:14:31,050
I hope that he does not see
you writing that letter.
228
00:14:31,050 --> 00:14:32,990
- Who said I was writing a letter?
229
00:14:32,990 --> 00:14:34,513
- You just don't get it, do you?
230
00:14:34,513 --> 00:14:36,720
Our father knew exactly when I started
231
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,300
talking to girls my freshman year.
232
00:14:38,300 --> 00:14:41,870
- Well even if I was writing
a letter, what's the big deal?
233
00:14:41,870 --> 00:14:44,730
- Because you changed into
a totally different person.
234
00:14:44,730 --> 00:14:46,980
He knows that something
is going on with you.
235
00:14:49,060 --> 00:14:53,170
- Well, Ricky, I didn't sign on for this.
236
00:14:53,170 --> 00:14:54,003
Any of it!
237
00:14:56,009 --> 00:14:58,170
I'm ready to hand in my uniform.
238
00:14:58,170 --> 00:14:59,520
- I know that you're upset.
239
00:15:00,670 --> 00:15:01,840
And maybe you got a right to be.
240
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:03,717
- You damn right I'm upset!
241
00:15:03,717 --> 00:15:06,860
If you had to go to bed with
no dinner, you'd be upset too!
242
00:15:06,860 --> 00:15:08,640
- Let me tell you something, Nick.
243
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,030
Leave them girls alone
244
00:15:11,030 --> 00:15:13,280
and start listening to
somebody for a change.
245
00:15:20,060 --> 00:15:21,210
- It's crazy, you know?
246
00:15:24,270 --> 00:15:27,955
Sometimes when I'm trying to have fun,
247
00:15:27,955 --> 00:15:30,298
all I can think about is how many inches
248
00:15:30,298 --> 00:15:31,900
should I be choking up on the bat
249
00:15:31,900 --> 00:15:36,483
or how many balls I
dropped in that out field.
250
00:15:40,140 --> 00:15:42,223
Sometimes I think I'm losing my mind.
251
00:15:45,171 --> 00:15:47,070
- I wanted to be normal too
252
00:15:47,070 --> 00:15:51,350
but if I was normal, I would
not be where I am today.
253
00:15:51,350 --> 00:15:52,250
As simple as that.
254
00:15:53,335 --> 00:15:55,690
(gentle music)
255
00:15:55,690 --> 00:15:57,510
- [Nicholas] The way things
were between my father and me
256
00:15:57,510 --> 00:16:00,173
were putting this huge wedge
between both my parents.
257
00:16:01,210 --> 00:16:04,350
But it seemed that no matter
how bad things would get,
258
00:16:04,350 --> 00:16:05,850
I could always depend on my mother
259
00:16:05,850 --> 00:16:08,127
to come in and make things better for me.
260
00:16:10,868 --> 00:16:13,785
(knocking on door)
261
00:16:19,081 --> 00:16:20,620
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
262
00:16:20,620 --> 00:16:22,037
- You're welcome.
263
00:16:26,594 --> 00:16:27,794
You know what, Nicholas?
264
00:16:29,420 --> 00:16:32,050
Sometimes when things
just aren't right in life,
265
00:16:32,050 --> 00:16:34,623
you have to take a couple
of steps backwards.
266
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,793
And when you take a
couple of steps backwards,
267
00:16:42,890 --> 00:16:44,613
things become so much clearer.
268
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,410
And at that time, all of the
answers that you're looking for
269
00:16:50,410 --> 00:16:52,310
are right there in front of your face.
270
00:16:54,635 --> 00:16:57,863
And then you can move forward, finally.
271
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,780
And that's what we're
gonna have to do, Nicholas,
272
00:17:01,780 --> 00:17:04,390
is we're gonna have to move forward, okay?
273
00:17:06,475 --> 00:17:09,392
(soft piano music)
274
00:17:14,465 --> 00:17:16,882

- Did I do something wrong again?
293
00:18:47,360 --> 00:18:49,118
- Where were you last night?
294
00:18:49,118 --> 00:18:51,855
- I was exactly where I was
supposed to be, Maxine, home!
295
00:18:51,855 --> 00:18:54,700
- You were supposed to
be answering my call.
296
00:18:54,700 --> 00:18:57,590
I dialed your number at
least nine or 10 times.
297
00:18:57,590 --> 00:18:59,480
- Okay, you called, and?
298
00:19:00,505 --> 00:19:01,338
- And?
299
00:19:01,338 --> 00:19:02,290
The line was busy.
300
00:19:02,290 --> 00:19:04,033
It was busy the whole time.
301
00:19:06,050 --> 00:19:08,255
- Maxine, look, you're my girl alright?
302
00:19:08,255 --> 00:19:10,031
And you know I respect that.
303
00:19:10,031 --> 00:19:12,123
- Why is it always a mystery with you?
304
00:19:13,620 --> 00:19:16,570
- I already told you, our
communication has to be discrete.
305
00:19:17,420 --> 00:19:19,670
- And that's supposed
to make me feel better?
306
00:19:24,820 --> 00:19:25,653
Look.
307
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,870
I'm a beautiful person
that has a lot to offer.
308
00:19:31,870 --> 00:19:35,260
And if you can't show me any attention,
309
00:19:35,260 --> 00:19:36,810
then I'll just have to move on.
310
00:19:37,718 --> 00:19:39,210
- To tell you the truth Maxine,
311
00:19:39,210 --> 00:19:40,157
I don't want our relationship
312
00:19:40,157 --> 00:19:42,257
adding to the problems I'm already having.
313
00:19:44,650 --> 00:19:47,533
Look, I know I should've told you, okay?
314
00:19:48,570 --> 00:19:49,950
But I just didn't.
315
00:19:49,950 --> 00:19:51,423
- What is the big secret?
316
00:19:53,719 --> 00:19:57,140
(school bell rings)
317
00:19:57,140 --> 00:19:58,690
- You see that dude over there?
318
00:19:59,630 --> 00:20:00,583
The guy in the middle.
319
00:20:02,220 --> 00:20:06,193
Well, that's my brother Ricky.
320
00:20:08,170 --> 00:20:13,170
- You mean to tell me that
Ricky Dupree is your brother?
321
00:20:13,340 --> 00:20:15,760
The Ricky Dupree that's
going to hold the workout
322
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:16,850
and the press conference
323
00:20:16,850 --> 00:20:19,300
for all the media people later today?
324
00:20:19,300 --> 00:20:21,870
Why is it you never cared
to mention him to me before?
325
00:20:21,870 --> 00:20:24,269
- Because it don't matter, should it?
326
00:20:24,269 --> 00:20:26,840
- Oh wow.
- Hi Ricky,
327
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,760
nice if you would drop in.
328
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:29,790
Hey, this is Maxine.
329
00:20:29,790 --> 00:20:31,220
Maxine, Ricky.
330
00:20:31,220 --> 00:20:33,083
- It is so good to finally meet you.
331
00:20:34,153 --> 00:20:35,203
- Always my pleasure.
332
00:20:37,690 --> 00:20:41,610
- Nick has told me so many
wonderful things about you.
333
00:20:41,610 --> 00:20:46,530
- Is that right?
334
00:20:46,530 --> 00:20:48,313
- Okay, time to go to class Maxine.
335
00:20:49,876 --> 00:20:51,880
I'll see you around Ricky.
336
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,773
Come on, let's go to
class before you're late.
337
00:20:56,913 --> 00:20:59,580
(phone ringing)
338
00:21:04,300 --> 00:21:05,800
- Farris Dupree.
339
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,763
- Hey baby, it's me Carol.
340
00:21:07,763 --> 00:21:09,513
- Oh hey, baby, how are you?
341
00:21:10,570 --> 00:21:11,403
Good.
342
00:21:12,380 --> 00:21:13,700
So how are things at home?
343
00:21:13,700 --> 00:21:15,930
- Well actually everything
is right on schedule.
344
00:21:15,930 --> 00:21:17,640
- [Sasha] Farris, I need those papers.
345
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:18,880
- [Carol] I just got through making dinner
346
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,350
and actually I'm getting ready
to start on dessert and--
347
00:21:21,350 --> 00:21:22,620
- Sweetheart, did you remember
348
00:21:22,620 --> 00:21:25,390
to bake the food with no salt?
349
00:21:25,390 --> 00:21:27,620
- Well as soon as I clean
up, everything will be set.
350
00:21:27,620 --> 00:21:29,533
- Well that's just perfect.
351
00:21:29,533 --> 00:21:32,243
So I'll talk to you later then.
352
00:21:34,330 --> 00:21:39,280
And listen, try to forget
about yesterday, okay?
353
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:40,593
I mean, really try.
354
00:21:41,810 --> 00:21:42,760
Alright then, baby.
355
00:21:43,740 --> 00:21:44,573
Bye bye.
356
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,010
- [Sasha] Is everything okay?
357
00:21:51,746 --> 00:21:55,470
- (sighs) We had a disagreement yesterday
358
00:21:55,470 --> 00:21:58,440
but it's been really wearing on me
359
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,700
but it's really no big deal.
360
00:22:00,700 --> 00:22:04,009

361

Remember me?
- Hey.
365
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,650
- Come here, you act like
you're not glad to see me.
366
00:22:21,650 --> 00:22:23,370
In my arms, come here.

368
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:26,680
but what are you doing here?
369
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,860
- Well, the way your
voice sounded last night,
370
00:22:28,860 --> 00:22:31,278
I felt like my baby sister needed me.
371
00:22:31,278 --> 00:22:32,890
- Dee Dee where are the boys?
372
00:22:32,890 --> 00:22:34,050
- They're out in the car.
373
00:22:34,050 --> 00:22:36,057
Y'all get out of the
car and come on in here!
374
00:22:36,057 --> 00:22:38,663
And leave the junk in the car out there!
375
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,590
- Oh Dee Dee, I feel like
I've totally lost myself.
376
00:22:47,590 --> 00:22:49,160
- Don't pay Farris any attention.
377
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,610
He told you to forget about it, didn't he?
378
00:22:51,610 --> 00:22:52,690
- Yeah, he did but I--
379
00:22:52,690 --> 00:22:53,950
- Okay then.
380
00:22:53,950 --> 00:22:55,450
You have done a wonderful job
381
00:22:55,450 --> 00:22:58,440
raising three beautiful
children, boys at that.
382
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,750
You cannot let him take your confidence.
383
00:23:00,750 --> 00:23:02,060
- Girl that's easy for you to say.
384
00:23:02,060 --> 00:23:05,200
You're not the one who has
to sleep with one eye open.
385
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,570
- When men are unhappy with their lives,
386
00:23:07,570 --> 00:23:09,600
they try to make the woman feel bad
387
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,143
just to make themselves feel better.
388
00:23:12,143 --> 00:23:14,726

From DuPage Prep high school

00:23:23,843 --> 00:23:26,178
Chicago baseball star, Ricky Dupree
393
00:23:26,178 --> 00:23:28,090
has had an astonishing rise.
394
00:23:28,090 --> 00:23:29,050
- [Man] At the end of the season,
395
00:23:29,050 --> 00:23:31,130
the associated press named six foot four,
396
00:23:31,130 --> 00:23:35,270
190-pound Ricky Dupree AP
National Player of the year.
397
00:23:35,270 --> 00:23:37,470
- [Woman] Ricky Dupree
led his team in home runs,
398
00:23:37,470 --> 00:23:40,640
hits and was second on the team in steals.
399
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,600
- [Man] Ricky has a major press conference
400
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,290

401
00:23:45,290 --> 00:23:47,230
all the national media's attention,
402
00:23:47,230 --> 00:23:48,790
the big question remains,
403
00:23:48,790 --> 00:23:53,053
which college will this baseball
star attend next season?
404
00:23:55,110 --> 00:23:57,020
- Girl, I get so sick and tired of hearing
405
00:23:57,020 --> 00:23:59,323
that man talk about how
perfect his mama is.
406
00:23:59,323 --> 00:24:00,156
- Wait a minute.
407
00:24:00,156 --> 00:24:01,730
I thought Farris' mother was dead.
408
00:24:01,730 --> 00:24:02,860
- [Carol] She is dead.
409
00:24:02,860 --> 00:24:05,060
- And besides, what does she
have to do with any of this?
410
00:24:05,060 --> 00:24:07,870
- Nothing, she died
like over 15 years ago.
411
00:24:07,870 --> 00:24:09,490
- Okay, so what does she have to do
412

with the price of Tea in China?
413
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:11,473
- I don't know, I just feel like
414
00:24:11,473 --> 00:24:13,560
he's always kinda comparing her to me.
415
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,010

416
00:24:16,010 --> 00:24:17,640
to please stop doing it?
417
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,750

Whenever I don't answer his every demand,
419
00:24:23,270 --> 00:24:26,304

00:29:54,998 --> 00:29:57,915
(soft piano music)
531
00:30:18,675 --> 00:30:21,092
(door shuts)
532
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:24,448
- I can't believe that you would bring
533
00:30:24,448 --> 00:30:27,280
another woman in this house.
534
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:28,870
I can't believe that you would actually
535
00:30:28,870 --> 00:30:31,310
do this to me or our family.
536
00:30:31,310 --> 00:30:32,950
- Carol, damn!
537
00:30:32,950 --> 00:30:34,560
You are overreacting!
538
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,530
- Overreacting--
- Yes, overreacting,
539
00:30:36,530 --> 00:30:38,170
let's be reasonable!
540
00:30:38,170 --> 00:30:41,380
You are always overreacting,
every time I look around!
541
00:30:41,380 --> 00:30:44,400
- How in the hell do you
explain what you were doing
542
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,070
in that bathroom in our
house with that woman?
543
00:30:48,070 --> 00:30:49,660
- What woman, Carol?
544
00:30:49,660 --> 00:30:50,570
- Sasha.
545
00:30:50,570 --> 00:30:52,760
- But I'm telling you,
girls are distractions
546
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,210
for your career and your future.
547
00:30:55,210 --> 00:30:57,100
Girls are no good for you.
548
00:30:57,100 --> 00:30:58,900
- You know who in the
hell I'm talking about
549
00:30:58,900 --> 00:31:01,180
so don't you dare play games with me!
550
00:31:01,180 --> 00:31:04,880
- You are always over throwing
things out of proportion.
551
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,460
- I did it to protect you.
552
00:31:06,460 --> 00:31:07,940
- Protect me?
553
00:31:07,940 --> 00:31:09,770
You call protecting me
going to the bathroom
554
00:31:09,770 --> 00:31:11,150
with my girlfriend?
555
00:31:11,150 --> 00:31:12,830
- Farris--
- Farris what?
556
00:31:12,830 --> 00:31:16,041
- You get your finger out
of my face, Farris Dupree.
557
00:31:16,041 --> 00:31:17,970
It is over.
558
00:31:17,970 --> 00:31:19,550
- You know what, I never
thought in a million years
559
00:31:19,550 --> 00:31:21,747
my own brother would be
the one to do this to me.
560
00:31:21,747 --> 00:31:24,873
- Carol, come back here.
561
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,870
Carol, where you taking Marcus?
562
00:31:29,870 --> 00:31:30,703
Carol!
563
00:31:30,703 --> 00:31:31,710
- Truth of the matter is you know what?
564
00:31:31,710 --> 00:31:32,653
I liked that girl.
565
00:31:33,890 --> 00:31:35,320
I did.
566
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,623
But it's never been about
what I like though, right?
567
00:31:39,078 --> 00:31:41,828
(soft sad music)
568
00:31:43,892 --> 00:31:46,642
(birds chirping)
569
00:31:49,860 --> 00:31:51,350
- Nicholas wake up!
570
00:31:51,350 --> 00:31:52,963
The school is calling again.
571
00:31:54,890 --> 00:31:56,300
Nicholas, I said wake up!
572
00:31:56,300 --> 00:31:57,540
They ain't playing with you!
573
00:31:57,540 --> 00:31:59,373
- I'm up, I'm up, I'm up.
574
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:01,683
I hate that school.
575
00:32:02,790 --> 00:32:03,623
They're always yelling at me.
576
00:32:03,623 --> 00:32:05,092
They're so mean to me up there,
577
00:32:05,092 --> 00:32:05,925
I don't wanna go back over there.
578
00:32:05,925 --> 00:32:08,930
- I'ma say this to you once
and I do mean one time only.
579
00:32:08,930 --> 00:32:12,650
The next time that school
calls my house, it's over.
580
00:32:12,650 --> 00:32:17,080
Army, Navy, Job Corps, you
getting your ass up out of here!
581
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,220
Now get up!
582
00:32:19,220 --> 00:32:20,053
Now!
583
00:32:20,053 --> 00:32:22,502
Get up!
- I'm up, I'm up.
584
00:32:22,502 --> 00:32:24,919
(soft music)
585
00:32:32,311 --> 00:32:36,311
(transitions into upbeat music)
586
00:33:24,111 --> 00:33:27,111
(people chattering)
587
00:33:35,711 --> 00:33:36,711
- Thank you.
588
00:33:38,250 --> 00:33:40,963
- Is that Carol, Carol Fields?
589
00:33:43,820 --> 00:33:45,620
- That was my name years ago.
590
00:33:45,620 --> 00:33:48,163
- It's me, Mr. Johnson
from the project buildings.
591
00:33:50,060 --> 00:33:52,810
- Mr. Johnson, how have you been?
592
00:33:52,810 --> 00:33:55,803
- I've been great but how about yourself?
593
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,300
- Not doing so well.
594
00:34:03,175 --> 00:34:05,990
- Now Carol, you know I'll
do anything in the world
595
00:34:05,990 --> 00:34:08,270
to help out a family friend.
596
00:34:08,270 --> 00:34:09,220
What's the problem?
597
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,573
- Mr. Johnson is my soon
to be 18 year old son.
598
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,940
I just don't know what to do anymore.
599
00:34:20,940 --> 00:34:23,053
- Well, tell me about it, I got all day.
600
00:34:24,965 --> 00:34:28,140
(upbeat funky music)
601
00:34:28,140 --> 00:34:30,090
- I don't know what's going on anymore.
602
00:34:32,851 --> 00:34:34,673
My life wasn't supposed to be like this.
603
00:34:41,650 --> 00:34:43,140
You'd think, right?
604
00:34:43,140 --> 00:34:46,060
You know, after leaving that
life I left in the suburbs,
605
00:34:46,060 --> 00:34:48,003
you'd think everything would be all good.
606
00:34:50,061 --> 00:34:51,298
But you know what?
607
00:34:51,298 --> 00:34:52,131
It's not.
608
00:34:53,372 --> 00:34:54,422
My mama is mad at me.
609
00:34:55,260 --> 00:34:56,860
I'm flunking every class I'm in.
610
00:34:57,798 --> 00:34:59,110
One thing is for sure though,
611
00:34:59,110 --> 00:35:00,897
I cannot get kicked out of school.
612
00:35:12,415 --> 00:35:15,190
- Man how in the hell you gone
try out for the baseball team
613
00:35:15,190 --> 00:35:16,850
and today is your last day of school.
614
00:35:16,850 --> 00:35:18,660
- Yeah and usually when you get suspended,
615
00:35:18,660 --> 00:35:19,927
they come looking for you in the morning
616
00:35:19,927 --> 00:35:21,790
and what, it's already lunch now.
617
00:35:21,790 --> 00:35:24,208
- He right, I've been
suspended twice this year
618
00:35:24,208 --> 00:35:26,851
and the ain't never waited
this late to come get me.
619
00:35:29,465 --> 00:35:30,560
- I figure since I've missed so many days
620
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:31,430
maybe they just you know,
621
00:35:31,430 --> 00:35:32,737
let me slide on this one, you know?
622
00:35:32,737 --> 00:35:34,280
- (laughs) Slide?
623
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:35,113
Man, we're talking about
624
00:35:35,113 --> 00:35:37,330
the jackass principle Jack Wheeler here.
625
00:35:37,330 --> 00:35:38,523
He ain't letting nothing slide.
626
00:35:38,523 --> 00:35:40,790
Man, he even suspended
his own nephew one day
627
00:35:40,790 --> 00:35:42,390
for breaking the cafeteria line.
628
00:35:43,384 --> 00:35:44,217
- [Nicholas] But you know what?
629
00:35:44,217 --> 00:35:48,023
Slide or no slide, if I get
caught up again, I'm done.
630
00:35:50,710 --> 00:35:52,850
- Okay guys, pay attention to me now.
631
00:35:52,850 --> 00:35:54,100
As you can see the cheerleaders
632
00:35:54,100 --> 00:35:55,795
are sponsoring a canned food drive
633
00:35:55,795 --> 00:36:00,240
and we expect each and every
one of you to participate.
634
00:36:00,240 --> 00:36:02,170
We're gonna be taking
cans and stacking them
635
00:36:02,170 --> 00:36:03,383
in the front hallway.
636
00:36:04,420 --> 00:36:05,770
Anybody have any questions?
637
00:36:14,350 --> 00:36:15,183
Alright.
638
00:36:18,710 --> 00:36:21,377
(phone ringing)
639
00:36:23,850 --> 00:36:24,683
- Hello?
640
00:36:26,260 --> 00:36:27,890
Speaking.
641
00:36:27,890 --> 00:36:30,100
- Here come Mr. Wheeler, now man!
642
00:36:30,100 --> 00:36:31,693
- What?
- Mr. Wheeler!
643
00:36:33,910 --> 00:36:35,500
- Nicholas Dupree, I need to see you
644
00:36:35,500 --> 00:36:38,400
in my office right away, please.
645
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,600
- You mean, right now
at this exact moment?
646
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:44,423
- Right now, get all
your things and let's go.
647
00:36:44,423 --> 00:36:45,360
- Can I finish eating first?
- No!
648
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:46,193
Let's go!
649
00:36:47,987 --> 00:36:50,987
(people chattering)
650
00:37:03,300 --> 00:37:06,280
- [Carol] Principal Wheeler,
I understand that Nicholas
651
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,670
has been in quite a lot of trouble lately
652
00:37:08,670 --> 00:37:12,240
but kicking him out of the
school isn't the right answer.
653
00:37:12,240 --> 00:37:14,750
I just don't believe that
you're giving him a fair chance.
654
00:37:14,750 --> 00:37:15,713
- Giving him?
655
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,250
Giving him?
656
00:37:19,250 --> 00:37:21,910
You're making it seem like it's my fault.
657
00:37:21,910 --> 00:37:23,120
It's obvious we are dealing
658
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,163
with a kid without a purpose here.
659
00:37:26,184 --> 00:37:30,090
- Alright, I'll help him with
his homework after school,
660
00:37:30,090 --> 00:37:32,050
I'll make sure that he
gets a job after school
661
00:37:32,050 --> 00:37:34,860
but it just, it can't end
like this Mr. Wheeler.
662
00:37:34,860 --> 00:37:37,540
- The school system has rules.
663
00:37:37,540 --> 00:37:40,100
And those rules must be followed.
664
00:37:40,100 --> 00:37:41,530
- But you are the principal.
665
00:37:41,530 --> 00:37:43,934
What I'm saying is that you
have the power to change this.
666
00:37:43,934 --> 00:37:45,610
- I know this.
667
00:37:45,610 --> 00:37:48,650
But the kid has a long rap sheet.
668
00:37:48,650 --> 00:37:51,050
And the rules state that he has to go.
669
00:37:51,050 --> 00:37:52,400
- Well, what's he gonna do now?
670
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,160
- Well, I don't know, I can't answer that.
671
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,720
- Principal Wheeler, my son
is a senior in high school
672
00:37:57,720 --> 00:37:59,770
and he's soon to be 18 years old.
673
00:37:59,770 --> 00:38:00,790
I mean, if you kick him out now,
674
00:38:00,790 --> 00:38:02,887
he'll be trash in six months.
675
00:38:02,887 --> 00:38:05,160
Nicholas could start selling drugs,
676
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,187
hell, he could even start using drugs.
677
00:38:07,187 --> 00:38:12,180
- I'm looking at if I can
count them, 45 absences?
678
00:38:12,180 --> 00:38:17,180
35 tardies, he comes to school
but he doesn't go to class.
679
00:38:18,410 --> 00:38:19,293
It's too late.
680
00:38:20,390 --> 00:38:22,640
I don't know why parents
wait 'til the last minute
681
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,533
to care about their kid's education.
682
00:38:26,110 --> 00:38:28,063
I'm sorry, he has to go.
683
00:38:28,063 --> 00:38:31,360
(knocking on door)
684
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,280
- Can I talk to you for a minute, boss?
685
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:34,633
- Yeah Bennie, come on in.
686
00:38:38,100 --> 00:38:39,570
- This is the young man that I saw
687
00:38:39,570 --> 00:38:41,060
on the baseball field this morning.
688
00:38:41,060 --> 00:38:43,840
You know, the one throwing the fastballs.
689
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,000
- [Wheeler] This is the
guy you saw pitching?
690
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,678
- He's the one.
691
00:38:47,678 --> 00:38:50,020
- But this guy is on his
way out of this school.
692
00:38:50,020 --> 00:38:51,470
- I understand that.
693
00:38:51,470 --> 00:38:53,050
But with all due respect, sir.
694
00:38:53,050 --> 00:38:54,990
As community leaders,
it's our responsibility
695
00:38:54,990 --> 00:38:56,610
to help these kids out
when they need it the most,
696
00:38:56,610 --> 00:38:57,490
not throw them out.
697
00:38:57,490 --> 00:38:59,790
- Yeah but I don't know
about this guy, coach.
698
00:39:01,500 --> 00:39:03,010
- You did say you wanted
699
00:39:03,010 --> 00:39:04,570
a winning baseball team this year, right?
700
00:39:04,570 --> 00:39:06,150
- Yeah but--
- Well this is the young man
701
00:39:06,150 --> 00:39:07,650
that can help us do just that.
702
00:39:12,505 --> 00:39:14,313
- Okay, Mrs. Dupree.
703
00:39:15,340 --> 00:39:17,060
This is what we're going to do.
704
00:39:17,060 --> 00:39:19,543
We'll suspend him for three days.
705
00:39:20,500 --> 00:39:24,730
Upon his return, if he misses one day,
706
00:39:24,730 --> 00:39:28,423
if he's tardy one time, he's out of here.
707
00:39:29,260 --> 00:39:33,770
And he must bring his
grades up to a C average
708
00:39:33,770 --> 00:39:36,030
and join some after school activity.
709
00:39:36,030 --> 00:39:37,303
Also get a job.
710
00:39:40,610 --> 00:39:44,300
If he fails to do any one of those things,
711
00:39:44,300 --> 00:39:46,860
one of 'em, he's out of here faster
712
00:39:46,860 --> 00:39:48,750
than you can say Jack Flash.
713
00:39:48,750 --> 00:39:50,300
- Fair enough, principal Wheeler.
714
00:39:50,300 --> 00:39:51,573
Thank you so much.
715
00:39:55,812 --> 00:39:57,228
- Thank you.
716
00:39:57,228 --> 00:39:59,811
(upbeat music)
717
00:40:01,118 --> 00:40:02,702
- What took you so damn long?
718
00:40:02,702 --> 00:40:05,003
- Had to make sure the
coast was clear, man.
719
00:40:05,867 --> 00:40:07,822
- Nick, I think this is a bad idea, man.
720
00:40:07,830 --> 00:40:09,820
Maybe we should just put it back.
721
00:40:09,820 --> 00:40:11,900
- Man, would you please shut the hell up
722
00:40:11,900 --> 00:40:13,700
and watch the damn tape?
723
00:40:13,700 --> 00:40:15,990
You're making more damn
noise than the woman is.
724
00:40:15,990 --> 00:40:18,060
- He's right, Nate, relax.
725
00:40:18,060 --> 00:40:19,750
Take some risk for once.
726
00:40:19,750 --> 00:40:20,703
- If auntie Carol caught us watching this,
727
00:40:20,703 --> 00:40:22,800
we'd be in a whole lot of trouble, man.
728
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:23,633
- So what, dude?
729
00:40:23,633 --> 00:40:25,150
I'm already in trouble.
730
00:40:25,150 --> 00:40:26,800
So I might as well just have my fun now.
731
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,500
Look, if she says anything,
look, I'll take the blame.
732
00:40:41,020 --> 00:40:43,373
- Well they are rare but they exist.
733
00:40:45,230 --> 00:40:48,073
- Man, you see the
breasteses on that woman?
734
00:40:49,448 --> 00:40:51,640
- Man, I still think this is a bad idea.
735
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,010
I just got a funny feeling about this.
736
00:40:54,010 --> 00:40:55,860
- Nick, would you please kick
737
00:40:55,860 --> 00:40:57,610
his lame ass out and lock the door?
738
00:40:57,610 --> 00:40:59,020
- Shut up!
- Nate,
739
00:40:59,020 --> 00:41:00,520
one more outburst out of you
740
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:03,513
and I will strangle you
with the extension chord.
741
00:41:04,983 --> 00:41:05,870
- [Carol] Dee Dee, come on,
742
00:41:05,870 --> 00:41:08,320
you always have the most
interesting day stories.
743
00:41:09,506 --> 00:41:11,673
(moaning)
744
00:41:23,830 --> 00:41:26,560
Girl, I wish this apartment
building had a elevator,
745
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,713
everyday this is the walk I have to make.
746
00:41:29,556 --> 00:41:30,389
- [Dee Dee] You know
you gotta take one step
747
00:41:30,389 --> 00:41:32,053
to get to the other side.
748
00:41:47,006 --> 00:41:49,930
- (laughs) Girl I cannot
wait to get in here
749
00:41:49,930 --> 00:41:51,250
and kick off these shoes
750
00:41:51,250 --> 00:41:53,340
and sit on the couch and relax my feet.
751
00:41:53,340 --> 00:41:56,247
- It's not as, Amen.
- It's been a long hot day.
752
00:41:56,247 --> 00:41:57,647
- [Dee Dee] And I got a son.
753
00:41:58,637 --> 00:41:59,618
(screaming)
754
00:41:59,618 --> 00:42:01,448
- What, Dee Dee!
755
00:42:01,448 --> 00:42:02,306
Dee Dee!
756
00:42:02,306 --> 00:42:03,139
Oh, hell no!
757
00:42:03,139 --> 00:42:03,972
What is that?
758
00:42:03,972 --> 00:42:07,055
(upbeat funky music)
759
00:42:41,281 --> 00:42:45,031
- I hope we're not busy
the whole day today.
760
00:42:54,150 --> 00:42:56,610
My mother said you used
to own an old corner store
761
00:42:56,610 --> 00:42:57,443
in her neighborhood, that's--
762
00:42:57,443 --> 00:42:59,550
- Would you please let
me finish this report
763
00:42:59,550 --> 00:43:01,740
before my manager comes back?
764
00:43:01,740 --> 00:43:04,603
Please sit there and shut up!
765
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:14,050
- You know what, since
you're a little busy,
766
00:43:14,050 --> 00:43:15,170
I'ma go wait in front until you--
767
00:43:15,170 --> 00:43:16,883
- Oh no, hell you won't!
768
00:43:18,240 --> 00:43:20,310
It's bad enough you came
in here 30 minutes late,
769
00:43:20,310 --> 00:43:22,223
now you messing up my concentration.
770
00:43:24,331 --> 00:43:26,303
Let me ask you something.
771
00:43:27,170 --> 00:43:28,583
Why do you wanna work here?
772
00:43:29,957 --> 00:43:31,160
(clears throat)
773
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,290
- I think it'd be a
good opportunity for me
774
00:43:33,290 --> 00:43:37,928
to get some work experience
and learn some responsibility
775
00:43:37,928 --> 00:43:39,900
and make a little money in the process.
776
00:43:39,900 --> 00:43:41,180
- Oh right, right, right.
777
00:43:41,180 --> 00:43:42,810
Let me ask you again.
778
00:43:42,810 --> 00:43:44,733
Why do you wanna work here?
779
00:43:49,300 --> 00:43:51,150
- To tell you the truth, Mr. Johnson,
780
00:43:52,030 --> 00:43:53,580
I really don't wanna work here.
781
00:43:54,894 --> 00:43:56,623
But I made some promises.
782
00:43:57,810 --> 00:44:00,710
And if I can make a little
money in the process, so be it.
783
00:44:02,300 --> 00:44:04,000
- Let me share something with you.
784
00:44:05,013 --> 00:44:06,743
You're trying to con a con.
785
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:09,890
You're trying to con
somebody that's already been
786
00:44:09,890 --> 00:44:11,190
where you're trying to go.
787
00:44:13,050 --> 00:44:14,943
- Okay, alright.
788
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:17,780
So now that we've got that out of the way,
789
00:44:17,780 --> 00:44:19,420
where do we go from here?
790
00:44:19,420 --> 00:44:21,803
- You can start by leaving my restaurant.
791
00:44:23,350 --> 00:44:24,290
- Leave?
792
00:44:24,290 --> 00:44:25,123
Why do you want me to leave?
793
00:44:25,123 --> 00:44:26,610
- Because you're not here to work.
794
00:44:26,610 --> 00:44:28,280
Get the hell out of my shop!
795
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,317
And go back to where they'll
be glad to see your ass.
796
00:44:31,317 --> 00:44:33,280
- What am I supposed to tell my mother?
797
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:34,633
I can't tell her I got
fired on the first day.
798
00:44:34,633 --> 00:44:37,240
- I don't know, tell her the truth.
799
00:44:37,240 --> 00:44:38,363
Tell her you quit.
800
00:44:50,828 --> 00:44:51,958
(upbeat music)
801
00:44:51,958 --> 00:44:55,650
- [Carol] Oh girl, I am
so glad that I do not have
802
00:44:55,650 --> 00:44:57,890
to go back to that place again.
803
00:44:57,890 --> 00:45:00,780
- [Dee Dee] Time will tell everything.
804
00:45:00,780 --> 00:45:03,730
- I just feel like Nicholas
needs a strong role model
805
00:45:03,730 --> 00:45:06,023
in his life, like a good
male figure you know?
806
00:45:06,023 --> 00:45:08,133
I think Mr. Johnson will be good for that.
807
00:45:10,150 --> 00:45:13,840
- Listen, speaking of male figures.
808
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:15,740
When are you gonna start dating again?
809
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:17,577
- Dating?
810
00:45:17,577 --> 00:45:19,677
Dee Dee, where in hell did that come from?
811
00:45:21,410 --> 00:45:23,580
- I don't know, I just
get tired of seeing you
812
00:45:23,580 --> 00:45:25,980
sitting in that apartment
every single night.
813
00:45:25,980 --> 00:45:26,880
I just thought you would like
814
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,370
some male companionship for a change.
815
00:45:29,370 --> 00:45:31,250
- Girl, I am single with three kids,
816
00:45:31,250 --> 00:45:33,729
as if a man really wants
to be bothered with me.
817
00:45:33,729 --> 00:45:36,940
- Do not use that as an excuse.
818
00:45:36,940 --> 00:45:38,790
You have not made one single attempt.
819
00:45:39,870 --> 00:45:42,220
Carol, Farris is old news.
820
00:45:42,220 --> 00:45:44,350
Maybe you should just try and let it go.
821
00:45:44,350 --> 00:45:46,700
- Girl, ain't nobody
thinking about Farris.
822
00:45:46,700 --> 00:45:48,040
- 'Cause you can best believe,
823
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:49,793
while you're miserable thinking about him,
824
00:45:49,793 --> 00:45:53,170
that he is doing just fine
not thinking about you.
825
00:45:53,170 --> 00:45:54,530
Believe that.
826
00:45:54,530 --> 00:45:57,342
- I wanna know where all
this dating stuff came from.
827
00:45:57,342 --> 00:45:58,790
- Nowhere!
828
00:45:58,790 --> 00:46:00,630
Nowhere, I'm just trying
to help you get rid
829
00:46:00,630 --> 00:46:02,116
of some of those cob webs.
830
00:46:02,116 --> 00:46:03,580
(laughing)
831
00:46:03,580 --> 00:46:05,360
- Well you are my sister and I do know
832
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,473
how your twisted little mind thinks.
833
00:46:09,310 --> 00:46:11,010
- Oh, okay.
834
00:46:11,010 --> 00:46:14,143
What if I told you that I
hooked you up with somebody?
835
00:46:15,540 --> 00:46:16,940
- Dee Dee!
836
00:46:16,940 --> 00:46:17,773
Dee Dee wait!
837
00:46:17,773 --> 00:46:19,758
No, you didn't even have my permission!
838
00:46:19,758 --> 00:46:21,250
- I know.
839
00:46:21,250 --> 00:46:23,400
I know, I didn't think you would mind.
840
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,780
- Girl, I have got enough problems at home
841
00:46:25,780 --> 00:46:27,720
without trying to get to know somebody.
842
00:46:27,720 --> 00:46:29,340
- He's just a friend that I know
843
00:46:29,340 --> 00:46:30,900
and he's single, what's the big deal?
844
00:46:30,900 --> 00:46:32,478
- I can't believe this.
845
00:46:32,478 --> 00:46:34,960
I just, I can't believe this.
846
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:36,836
- Look, I know you're bitter
847
00:46:36,836 --> 00:46:38,503
and you have a right to be.
848
00:46:39,430 --> 00:46:42,720
But after all this time, you have not once
849
00:46:42,720 --> 00:46:44,620
tried to put your marriage behind you.
850
00:46:47,684 --> 00:46:49,234
- Dee Dee, I don't think I can.
851
00:46:50,350 --> 00:46:52,270
- And you really haven't
talked about it either.
852
00:46:52,270 --> 00:46:53,753
Now something is going on.
853
00:46:56,070 --> 00:46:58,310
- I just wonder if he ever you know,
854
00:46:58,310 --> 00:47:00,050
just if he thinks about--
- Farris?
855
00:47:00,050 --> 00:47:01,350
If he thinks about what?
856
00:47:01,350 --> 00:47:02,370
If what?
857
00:47:02,370 --> 00:47:04,050
- Well you would think
that after sometime,
858
00:47:04,050 --> 00:47:05,100
that he would pick up the phone
859
00:47:05,100 --> 00:47:08,211
and I don't know give an explanation for--
860
00:47:08,211 --> 00:47:09,150
- Why?
861
00:47:09,150 --> 00:47:11,350
Farris owes you nothing, he is selfish
862
00:47:11,350 --> 00:47:13,400
and he does not want you to have closure.
863
00:47:15,010 --> 00:47:16,110
That's the size of it.
864
00:47:17,593 --> 00:47:18,520
- I don't know Dee Dee.
865
00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:21,735
I just don't think I'm
ready, I really don't.

871
00:47:30,870 --> 00:47:32,060
- [Nicholas] My mother that I were both
872
00:47:32,060 --> 00:47:33,923
in places we did not want to be.
873
00:47:34,930 --> 00:47:36,498
Since the meeting with principal Wheeler,
874
00:47:36,498 --> 00:47:40,550
things for me were not exactly
going according to plan.
875
00:47:40,550 --> 00:47:42,250
So I knew I couldn't say anything
876
00:47:42,250 --> 00:47:43,410
during dinner about what happened
877
00:47:43,410 --> 00:47:45,630
at the restaurant with Mr. Johnson.
878
00:47:45,630 --> 00:47:49,710
On the other hand, my mother
wasn't doing so good herself.
879
00:47:49,710 --> 00:47:52,170
You see, she had really been thinking
880
00:47:52,170 --> 00:47:53,510
about the conversation that she had
881
00:47:53,510 --> 00:47:55,030
with auntie Dee Dee earlier.
882
00:47:55,030 --> 00:47:56,276
Especially since she hasn't seen anyone
883
00:47:56,276 --> 00:47:57,833
since the family split.
884
00:47:58,770 --> 00:48:01,640
And as for the conversation
at dinner tonight,
885
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,083
nobody said one single word.
886
00:48:18,970 --> 00:48:20,270
- What are you doing here?
887
00:48:21,130 --> 00:48:22,500
- I think you made a mistake, sir.
888
00:48:22,500 --> 00:48:24,530
- The only mistake here, Nicholas is you.
889
00:48:24,530 --> 00:48:27,678
Please, pull the door up on your way out.
890
00:48:27,678 --> 00:48:30,750
- Mr. Johnson, look, I'm
sorry about yesterday.
891
00:48:30,750 --> 00:48:34,860
And I came today to ask
you for my job back.
892
00:48:34,860 --> 00:48:38,103
- Well, let's just see what
your school had to say.
893
00:48:43,450 --> 00:48:46,720
You have an overall
grade point average of F.
894
00:48:46,720 --> 00:48:50,010
You've been suspended three times.
895
00:48:50,010 --> 00:48:54,557
You have 45 absences and 35 tardies.
896
00:48:54,557 --> 00:48:58,500
The only positive thing I see
is that you might possibly
897
00:48:58,500 --> 00:49:00,373
be able to join the baseball team.
898
00:49:01,780 --> 00:49:03,070
I'm sorry, son.
899
00:49:03,070 --> 00:49:05,870
Please close the door on your way out.
900
00:49:05,870 --> 00:49:07,730
- Mr. Johnson, what am I
supposed to tell my mother?
901
00:49:07,730 --> 00:49:08,810
I can't tell her you fired me.
902
00:49:08,810 --> 00:49:09,643
- Why not?
903
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:13,530
I know what's wrong.
904
00:49:13,530 --> 00:49:15,800
You're afraid of what she's gonna do.
905
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,706
You're afraid she's gonna
kick you out, aren't you?
906
00:49:18,706 --> 00:49:21,406
Which is something she
should've done a long time ago.
907
00:49:25,010 --> 00:49:25,843
- Mr. Johnson.
908
00:49:30,220 --> 00:49:31,670
I don't know what else to do.
909
00:49:33,030 --> 00:49:34,720
I got nowhere else to go.
910
00:49:34,720 --> 00:49:37,560
- See, that's the problem
with all you teenagers.
911
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:38,840
You think you know everything
912
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:43,060
and the fact of the matter
is, you don't know shit!
913
00:49:43,060 --> 00:49:45,313
And you're too dumb to even realize it.
914
00:49:48,666 --> 00:49:51,013
- [Nicholas] I just want to work, sir.
915
00:49:54,270 --> 00:49:56,037
- Are you sure about this, son?
916
00:49:58,890 --> 00:49:59,840
I'll tell you what.
917
00:50:00,790 --> 00:50:03,730
I'm gonna go against my
better judgment this once
918
00:50:03,730 --> 00:50:05,670
and give you your job back.
919
00:50:05,670 --> 00:50:10,440
But I warn you, if you fuck up once,
920
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:14,850
I'm gonna be on yo ass like white on rice.
921
00:50:14,850 --> 00:50:16,350
- Thank you sir.
922
00:50:16,350 --> 00:50:18,640
Thank you, Mr--
- Now go out in the front,
923
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:19,800
I'll be out there in a minute.
924
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:21,550
- [Nicholas] Alright.
925
00:50:23,352 --> 00:50:24,400
(cars honking)
926
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:27,340
- Now you mean to tell me that a gorgeous,
927
00:50:27,340 --> 00:50:30,600
beautiful, attractive
woman such as yourself
928
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,910
has not been on one single
date in three years?
929
00:50:33,910 --> 00:50:35,630
I'm sorry Carol, but that's kinda hard
930
00:50:35,630 --> 00:50:38,139
for a man of my intelligence to believe.
931
00:50:38,139 --> 00:50:40,989
- It's hard for me to believe
too but it's actually true.
932
00:50:41,950 --> 00:50:46,950
- Look Carol, separation,
divorce, whatever the case may be,
933
00:50:47,490 --> 00:50:49,463
is never an easy thing to overcome.
934
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:55,430
- Avery I understand that but
love can make you feel so low.
935
00:50:55,430 --> 00:50:58,660
- True but the reality is that we all
936
00:50:58,660 --> 00:51:00,513
have to start over at some point.
937
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,410
- You know, when I first got divorced,
938
00:51:04,410 --> 00:51:05,350
I don't know, it was so weird.
939
00:51:05,350 --> 00:51:08,490
It was like a huge relief,
it was like this huge cloud
940
00:51:08,490 --> 00:51:10,660
had been lifted off my shoulders.
941
00:51:10,660 --> 00:51:12,488
- Do you know why that is?
942
00:51:12,488 --> 00:51:13,321
- Why?
943
00:51:13,321 --> 00:51:14,760
- Because sometimes bad marriages
944
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:16,860
have the power to destroy a person's soul.
945
00:51:18,100 --> 00:51:18,950
- I just kinda thought that
946
00:51:18,950 --> 00:51:20,520
all of our problems would be over.
947
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,290
Well, at least the major ones.
948
00:51:22,290 --> 00:51:24,240
And I kinda feel like
949
00:51:24,240 --> 00:51:26,393
all those insecurities are still there.
950
00:51:27,460 --> 00:51:28,293
- Yeah.
951
00:51:29,250 --> 00:51:30,083
- What about you?
952
00:51:30,083 --> 00:51:33,170
I mean what kind of obstacles
are you trying to overcome?
953
00:51:33,170 --> 00:51:37,120
- Well, I must say, I've
been happily divorced
954
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:41,740
and I repeat, happily divorced
for over five years now.
955
00:51:41,740 --> 00:51:44,602
- Okay, I got you, I got you.
956
00:51:44,602 --> 00:51:46,102
- Yeah.
957
00:51:46,102 --> 00:51:48,040
- So you like being single, yeah?
958
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:50,453
- Yeah, but it didn't start off that way.
959
00:51:51,410 --> 00:51:53,220
Let me put it like this
and I don't wanna sound
960
00:51:53,220 --> 00:51:56,387
like I'm soft or sensitive or unmanly.
961
00:51:56,387 --> 00:51:58,850
But I'ma keep it real with you.
962
00:51:58,850 --> 00:52:02,083
After my divorce was final,
I was hurt, you know.
963
00:52:02,930 --> 00:52:04,720
I felt real empty on the inside
964
00:52:04,720 --> 00:52:07,460
so I did what was comfortable.
965
00:52:07,460 --> 00:52:12,230
I went out and I dated
as many women as I could.
966
00:52:12,230 --> 00:52:13,770
- Like most men.
967
00:52:13,770 --> 00:52:17,120
- Not like most men but like
a man who was heartbroken.
968
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:19,320
But you know what my biggest downfall was?
969
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:20,203
- What's that?
970
00:52:20,203 --> 00:52:22,160
- I thought that being with a whole bunch
971
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:24,310
of different women was
gonna make me happy.
972
00:52:25,424 --> 00:52:27,620
- At least you had fun in the process.
973
00:52:27,620 --> 00:52:29,630
- Yeah, but then when the smoke cleared,
974
00:52:29,630 --> 00:52:31,130
the emptiness was still there.
975
00:52:31,970 --> 00:52:35,050
And at that moment, it
was then that I realized
976
00:52:35,050 --> 00:52:36,473
I had to make myself happy.
977
00:52:37,859 --> 00:52:40,378
- You see the lie that
people tell themselves,
978
00:52:40,378 --> 00:52:41,940
it's like they believe deep down inside
979
00:52:41,940 --> 00:52:43,010
that once they get a divorce,
980
00:52:43,010 --> 00:52:44,463
that they can easily replace that person
981
00:52:44,463 --> 00:52:47,780
that they've been married to for years.
982
00:52:47,780 --> 00:52:50,530
- It's easier said than done, Carol.
983
00:52:50,530 --> 00:52:52,530
You see, it just doesn't work like that.
984
00:52:52,530 --> 00:52:54,143
Not when emotions are involved.
985
00:52:55,210 --> 00:52:56,593
- Yeah, I agree.
- Yeah.
986
00:52:58,499 --> 00:53:01,416
(glasses clinking)
987
00:53:04,090 --> 00:53:05,080
- This is the bar area.
988
00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:06,740
This is where you'll be working.
989
00:53:06,740 --> 00:53:09,443
And this is where people will
be picking up their food.
990
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:13,570
You do know how to take orders, don't you?
991
00:53:13,570 --> 00:53:14,950
- Yeah, of course, sure.
992
00:53:14,950 --> 00:53:16,430
Yeah, I know how.
- Well, good.
993
00:53:16,430 --> 00:53:20,225
Take the orders and always
keep this area clean.
994
00:53:20,225 --> 00:53:21,490
- Right, okay.
995
00:53:21,490 --> 00:53:24,550
Hey, Mr. Johnson, who are
these people on the wall?
996
00:53:24,550 --> 00:53:27,280
- Oh, that's what I call
my workers hall of fame.
997
00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:29,980
Those are all the former
knuckleheads like yourself
998
00:53:29,980 --> 00:53:32,167
that used to work here (laughs).
999
00:53:32,167 --> 00:53:33,670
- You must be proud of all of them.
1000
00:53:33,670 --> 00:53:35,640
- Oh yes, it's been some really good kids
1001
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,120
to come through here over the years.
1002
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,500
- Avery, I had such a
good time this evening.
1003
00:53:40,500 --> 00:53:42,390
Thank you so much.
1004
00:53:42,390 --> 00:53:45,723
Well, I hope I didn't
bore you with my past.
1005
00:53:45,723 --> 00:53:47,210
- You didn't bore me, and you needed
1006
00:53:47,210 --> 00:53:49,111
to get that out of your system.
1007
00:53:49,111 --> 00:53:51,739
♪ When you had to love somebody ♪
1008
00:53:51,739 --> 00:53:54,613
♪ When you wanna hold somebody ♪
1009
00:53:54,613 --> 00:53:58,180
- Wow, I hope Dee Dee didn't
give you the wrong impression
1010
00:53:58,180 --> 00:54:00,447
but Avery I do have to go in alone.
1011
00:54:00,447 --> 00:54:02,192
You do understand?
1012
00:54:02,192 --> 00:54:03,900
- Yeah, yeah, sure.
1013
00:54:03,900 --> 00:54:05,147
I hope you didn't think I was trying to--
1014
00:54:05,147 --> 00:54:05,980
- No, no.
1015
00:54:08,768 --> 00:54:10,387
- I'll tell you what, I'll
just see you later then.
1016
00:54:10,387 --> 00:54:11,830
- Okay, thank you.
- You're welcome.
1017
00:54:28,970 --> 00:54:30,220
- [Monica] I had a call-in order.
1018
00:54:30,220 --> 00:54:31,827
- What's the name?
1019
00:54:31,827 --> 00:54:33,677
- [Monica] Phillips, Monica Phillips.
1020
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:40,190
- Uh yeah, let me, let
me see if I can find it.
1021
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:45,523
- Wait a minute.
1022
00:54:46,490 --> 00:54:48,227
We go to school together, right?
1023
00:54:48,227 --> 00:54:49,987
- Yeah, yeah.
1024
00:54:49,987 --> 00:54:52,030
We do, we go to the same...
1025
00:54:57,680 --> 00:54:58,563
Ah here it is.
1026
00:55:00,970 --> 00:55:02,553
That'll be $8 even.
1027
00:55:09,030 --> 00:55:10,460
There's your receipt.
- Thanks.
1028
00:55:10,460 --> 00:55:12,510
- And I'll be right back with your order.
1029
00:55:28,150 --> 00:55:30,980
Alright, Philly cheese steak, extra cheese
1030
00:55:30,980 --> 00:55:34,678
and I put you some extra
napkins in the bag.
1031
00:55:34,678 --> 00:55:35,678
Here you go.
1032
00:55:37,811 --> 00:55:38,644
- Thanks.
1033
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:45,683
- Hey Monica, wait up!
1034
00:55:49,210 --> 00:55:52,380
Hi. Um, listen.
1035
00:55:52,380 --> 00:55:55,840
I was, I usually don't do this but...
1036
00:55:59,920 --> 00:56:01,993
Look, how about you give me your number?
1037
00:56:01,993 --> 00:56:02,993
- My number?
1038
00:56:03,950 --> 00:56:05,280
- Well, yeah, I was hoping
1039
00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:08,600
to talk to you outside of this place.
1040
00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:10,343
- No, no.
1041
00:56:11,850 --> 00:56:13,137
I don't think so, no.
1042
00:56:14,230 --> 00:56:15,770
- Why not?
1043
00:56:15,770 --> 00:56:18,440
- I just don't think
it's a very good idea.
1044
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:19,460
No offense.
1045
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:34,870
- Can you help me with this?
1046
00:56:34,870 --> 00:56:35,773
- Sure baby.
1047
00:56:37,100 --> 00:56:38,650
Let's see what's going on here.
1048
00:56:39,710 --> 00:56:41,270
Okay, see where you added...
1049
00:56:44,208 --> 00:56:46,192
(phone ringing)
1050
00:56:46,192 --> 00:56:47,609
Hang on, sweetie.
1051
00:56:51,990 --> 00:56:52,823
Hello?
1052
00:56:53,770 --> 00:56:57,210
Hey girl, nothing, just helping
Marcus with his homework
1053
00:56:57,210 --> 00:56:59,060
and Nicholas is still at the restaurant.
1054
00:56:59,060 --> 00:56:59,893
What's going on?
1055
00:56:59,893 --> 00:57:02,330
- Well, what's the 4-1-1 on your date?
1056
00:57:02,330 --> 00:57:03,623
Dish me all the gossip.
1057
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:12,301
- This is a nice place
you got here Mr. Johnson.
1058
00:57:12,301 --> 00:57:13,840
You must be real proud of yourself.
1059
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:15,881
- Oh, I do okay.
1060
00:57:15,881 --> 00:57:17,730
- Were you in the
restaurant business forever,
1061
00:57:17,730 --> 00:57:18,870
like your whole life?
1062
00:57:18,870 --> 00:57:21,770
- No, I played professional
baseball for 13 years.
1063
00:57:21,770 --> 00:57:22,710
- Oh what?
1064
00:57:22,710 --> 00:57:24,340
Get out of here, I
would've never guessed it.
1065
00:57:24,340 --> 00:57:25,280
That's pretty cool.
1066
00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:27,650
- I grinded out the first
12 in the Minor Leagues
1067
00:57:27,650 --> 00:57:31,710
and finally in the last year
I got called up by the Cubs.
1068
00:57:31,710 --> 00:57:32,640
- Man, that must've been rough
1069
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:34,460
to play in the Minor
League that whole time.
1070
00:57:34,460 --> 00:57:36,293
- Well, it made me mentally tough.
1071
00:57:37,213 --> 00:57:38,780
It gave me a chance to appreciate
1072
00:57:38,780 --> 00:57:40,313
what baseball has to offer.
1073
00:57:42,970 --> 00:57:44,893
- You know my dad used to always say that.
1074
00:57:45,862 --> 00:57:47,563
- Well your dad was right.
1075
00:57:48,768 --> 00:57:49,601
- He used to always say
1076
00:57:49,601 --> 00:57:52,303
that baseball was a thinking man's game.
1077
00:57:53,338 --> 00:57:55,723
- I'm gonna tell you
something about life, son.
1078
00:57:57,040 --> 00:58:00,353
Life is 10% physical and 90% mental.
1079
00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:05,713
And not to mention,
1080
00:58:08,950 --> 00:58:11,606
I didn't do half bad
with the ladies either.
1081
00:58:11,606 --> 00:58:13,856
(laughing)
1082
00:58:16,630 --> 00:58:17,463
- Okay.
1083
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:20,540
- Oh, we just had dinner and then
1084
00:58:20,540 --> 00:58:22,410
he went on about his merry way.
1085
00:58:22,410 --> 00:58:23,243
- And?
1086
00:58:24,109 --> 00:58:25,630
That's it, no hugs, no kisses?
1087
00:58:25,630 --> 00:58:28,270
- I don't know Dee Dee,
I'm just not like that.
1088
00:58:28,270 --> 00:58:29,550
Besides, telling you it's like
1089
00:58:29,550 --> 00:58:31,645
putting it all over the six o'clock news.
1090
00:58:31,645 --> 00:58:33,710
(laughs)
1091
00:58:33,710 --> 00:58:35,580
- Now that's my biggest problem, you know?
1092
00:58:35,580 --> 00:58:38,180
I never know what to
say around girls, ever.
1093
00:58:38,180 --> 00:58:39,400
- Well, you're still a young man.
1094
00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:40,770
You're still learning.
1095
00:58:40,770 --> 00:58:43,520
It's not as difficult as it seems.
1096
00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:46,010
- You know, I'm a nobody at school.
1097
00:58:46,010 --> 00:58:47,690
You know, I'll be honest.
1098
00:58:47,690 --> 00:58:51,209
Girls tend to go for the
more popular guy and...
1099
00:58:51,209 --> 00:58:53,120
- Yeah well, that's true.
1100
00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:55,090
But you're still trying
to get your feet wet.
1101
00:58:55,090 --> 00:58:56,893
You just have to do the unexpected.
1102
00:58:59,041 --> 00:59:00,037
- I don't understand.
1103
00:59:00,037 --> 00:59:01,540
What do you mean unexpected?
1104
00:59:01,540 --> 00:59:03,640
- If a young man does the unexpected,
1105
00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:06,040
the young lady will usually
do the rest for him.
1106
00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:09,867
- Mr. Johnson, I'm really slow.
1107
00:59:09,867 --> 00:59:11,774
You have to really explain this to me.
1108
00:59:11,774 --> 00:59:12,624
What do you mean?
1109
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:18,453
- The unexpected is that you
simply have to be yourself.
1110
00:59:20,070 --> 00:59:24,555
- [Nicholas] Hey, I wanna
apologize about the other day.
1111
00:59:24,555 --> 00:59:26,840
I must have sounded like a complete idiot.
1112
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:27,830
- [Monica] Apologize?
1113
00:59:27,830 --> 00:59:29,423
Apologize to me for what?
1114
00:59:30,523 --> 00:59:32,820
- [Nicholas] See, I don't
know how to say this
1115
00:59:32,820 --> 00:59:35,580
but like I get kinda nervous around girls,
1116
00:59:35,580 --> 00:59:39,050
so I didn't wanna come off as being
1117
00:59:39,050 --> 00:59:40,650
disrespectful or rude
to you or anything, so.
1118
00:59:40,650 --> 00:59:42,620
- [Monica] No, don't worry about it.
1119
00:59:42,620 --> 00:59:45,210
Really if anybody should be
apologizing for anything,
1120
00:59:45,210 --> 00:59:47,500
it should probably be me.
1121
00:59:47,500 --> 00:59:49,200
- [Nicholas] Why should you apologize?
1122
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:50,980
- [Monica] Well, believe
it or not but sometimes
1123
00:59:50,980 --> 00:59:53,550
I can be pretty rude and obnoxious.
1124
00:59:53,550 --> 00:59:56,400
It's probably the biggest
thing that I hate about myself.
1125
00:59:57,857 --> 00:59:58,852
- [Nicholas] I hadn't noticed.
1126
00:59:58,852 --> 01:00:00,290
(laughing)
1127
01:00:00,290 --> 01:00:01,830
- [Monica] I may be the head cheerleader
1128
01:00:01,830 --> 01:00:03,860
but I'm definitely not the most popular
1129
01:00:03,860 --> 01:00:06,230
person with the other students.
1130
01:00:06,230 --> 01:00:08,420
- [Nicholas] Well, getting
to know people takes time.
1131
01:00:08,420 --> 01:00:10,890
I mean, Rome wasn't built
in one day, you know?
1132
01:00:10,890 --> 01:00:12,000
Come on!
1133
01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:12,950
- [Monica] I guess.
1134
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:16,950
- Alright, miss Monica.
1135
01:00:18,087 --> 01:00:19,430
I gotta ask you something.
1136
01:00:19,430 --> 01:00:21,930
I need your advice.
- Advice?
1137
01:00:21,930 --> 01:00:23,480
Right now I'm probably the last person
1138
01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:25,073
you wanna take advice from.
1139
01:00:25,073 --> 01:00:28,297
- No, no, you can help,
I think you can help.
1140
01:00:28,297 --> 01:00:33,220
You see, there's this
particular young lady
1141
01:00:33,220 --> 01:00:37,620
who I'm really, really
interested in getting to know
1142
01:00:37,620 --> 01:00:41,003
but the thing is I have no
clue what to say to her.
1143
01:00:42,340 --> 01:00:43,640
- Well that all depends.
1144
01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:46,260
Is this young lady pretty?
1145
01:00:46,260 --> 01:00:47,600
- Pretty?
1146
01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,750
Pretty is an understatement,
she's gorgeous!
1147
01:00:50,750 --> 01:00:52,316
But you know what?
1148
01:00:52,316 --> 01:00:54,133
That's not the first thing
you notice about her.
1149
01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,750
- So where did you come from?
1150
01:00:59,750 --> 01:01:02,653
That day in the cafeteria
was the first time I saw you.
1151
01:01:03,870 --> 01:01:04,870
- It doesn't matter.
1152
01:01:06,340 --> 01:01:10,087
All that matters is I never wanna go back.
1153
01:01:10,087 --> 01:01:11,230
- I understand.
1154
01:01:11,230 --> 01:01:14,390
I just moved here myself
after my mom and dad split,
1155
01:01:14,390 --> 01:01:16,603
I came here to live with my grandparents.
1156
01:01:17,510 --> 01:01:20,403
- I know what that's like
when parents splitting up.
1157
01:01:20,403 --> 01:01:22,210
And being in unfamiliar territory,
1158
01:01:22,210 --> 01:01:23,860
it's strange sometimes, you know?
1159
01:01:23,860 --> 01:01:25,910
- Right, it's not the
best place in the world
1160
01:01:25,910 --> 01:01:28,473
but it's so much better
than where you came from.
1161
01:01:29,580 --> 01:01:30,480
- Don't I know it?
1162
01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:33,820
Wake up now, go to sleep now!
1163
01:01:33,820 --> 01:01:35,780
- Join this squad, join that squad.
1164
01:01:35,780 --> 01:01:38,380
- You're moving too fast.
- You're moving too slow.
1165
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:44,300
- Yeah, you know
sometimes parents can just
1166
01:01:44,300 --> 01:01:46,280
make you feel so--
- Make you feel so
1167
01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:47,553
Trapped.
- Trapped.
1168
01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:57,420
Man, I'm telling you Mr.
Johnson, this girl is cool.
1169
01:01:57,420 --> 01:02:00,150
She actually listened to
every word I had to say.
1170
01:02:00,150 --> 01:02:02,053
- Man, women never cease to amaze me.
1171
01:02:03,170 --> 01:02:06,157
- She listened like to everything
that came out of my mouth.
1172
01:02:06,157 --> 01:02:08,150
- Oh you can get used to that.
1173
01:02:08,150 --> 01:02:10,410
Girls hearing the words that
are coming out of your mouth.
1174
01:02:10,410 --> 01:02:11,243
I'ma teach you everything
1175
01:02:11,243 --> 01:02:13,123
there is to know about talking to girls.
1176
01:02:14,929 --> 01:02:17,846
(soft piano music)
1177
01:02:19,010 --> 01:02:20,300
- [Nicholas] I can
honestly say that things
1178
01:02:20,300 --> 01:02:22,851
were finally coming together for me.
1179
01:02:22,851 --> 01:02:25,751
I feel like I have been given
a brand new purpose in life.
1180
01:02:26,750 --> 01:02:28,740
I didn't know where I was headed
1181
01:02:28,740 --> 01:02:31,490
but I knew for sure that I
was not gonna turn back now.
1182
01:02:32,540 --> 01:02:34,660
Mr. Johnson was the
first positive role model
1183
01:02:34,660 --> 01:02:36,210
that ever had patience with me.
1184
01:02:37,930 --> 01:02:40,070
He was the kind of person
that was very easy to talk to
1185
01:02:40,070 --> 01:02:43,230
and I felt like I could
just tell him anything.
1186
01:02:43,230 --> 01:02:44,800
He had given me that fatherly affection
1187
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:46,993
that I never received from my own father.
1188
01:02:48,530 --> 01:02:51,750
I pulled my grades up and who knows?
1189
01:02:51,750 --> 01:02:53,700
I might even have a new girlfriend too.
1190
01:02:54,690 --> 01:02:57,113
Everything else going so good in my life.
1191
01:02:58,250 --> 01:03:00,950
I knew that there was one
last thing I had to conquer.
1192
01:03:04,530 --> 01:03:05,900
- This is where it all began for me
1193
01:03:05,900 --> 01:03:07,250
right here on this diamond.
1194
01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:09,463
I owe my life to this.
1195
01:03:11,130 --> 01:03:14,620
I grew up in Mississippi, I
was a fan of Satchel Paige
1196
01:03:14,620 --> 01:03:16,863
and Josh Gibson of the old Negro Leagues.
1197
01:03:17,835 --> 01:03:21,250
And I loved Jackie
Robison and Elston Howard,
1198
01:03:21,250 --> 01:03:23,730
the first black man to play
for the New York Yankees.
1199
01:03:23,730 --> 01:03:24,563
- I didn't know that.
1200
01:03:25,800 --> 01:03:27,290
- When I was five years
old, I caught a game
1201
01:03:27,290 --> 01:03:29,520
that Willie Mays played in for
the Birmingham Black Barrons.
1202
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:30,670
- Is that right?
- Yeah.
1203
01:03:30,670 --> 01:03:31,543
- Oh man!
1204
01:03:32,770 --> 01:03:35,739
- So you say you wanna
make the baseball team.
1205
01:03:35,739 --> 01:03:36,810
- Yeah.
1206
01:03:36,810 --> 01:03:39,510
- Now it's my job to make
sure that you reach that goal.
1207
01:03:41,287 --> 01:03:43,750
(soft music)
1208
01:03:43,750 --> 01:03:45,200
Let's get ready to play ball.
1209
01:03:46,109 --> 01:03:47,160
Now I want you to concentrate
1210
01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:49,170
on what you're doing out there.
1211
01:03:49,170 --> 01:03:51,400
But remember, your sole purpose
1212
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:54,500
for being out there is to have fun.
1213
01:03:54,500 --> 01:03:55,663
Don't ever forget that.
1214
01:04:08,754 --> 01:04:11,892
Now that's what I'm talking about.
1215
01:04:11,892 --> 01:04:12,725
Yeah!
1216
01:04:22,439 --> 01:04:24,791
(clears throat)
1217
01:04:24,791 --> 01:04:27,791
(people chattering)
1218
01:04:30,580 --> 01:04:31,543
- I met somebody.
1219
01:04:36,170 --> 01:04:37,370
- What did you just say?
1220
01:04:39,630 --> 01:04:42,080
- I said I met somebody,
you know, just a friend.
1221
01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:47,900
Well, your aunt Dee
Dee kinda introduced me
1222
01:04:47,900 --> 01:04:49,100
to a gentleman that she knew
1223
01:04:49,100 --> 01:04:52,590
and we just kinda went
out to dinner, that's all.
1224
01:04:52,590 --> 01:04:55,173
I just, I didn't wanna tell you
1225
01:04:55,173 --> 01:04:56,660
because I don't want you to think
1226
01:04:56,660 --> 01:04:58,470
that I was trying to
hide anything from you
1227
01:04:58,470 --> 01:05:01,280
and well, with everything
that's been going,
1228
01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:02,650
I just don't wanna add to the problem--
1229
01:05:02,650 --> 01:05:03,700
- I met somebody too.
1230
01:05:07,290 --> 01:05:09,040
- I'm sorry, what did you just say?
1231
01:05:13,950 --> 01:05:17,410
- I'm happy you went
out and had a good time
1232
01:05:17,410 --> 01:05:21,430
and met somebody and I
said I met somebody too.
1233
01:05:21,430 --> 01:05:23,023
- Well, who's the lucky girl?
1234
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:25,410
- Her name is Monica.
1235
01:05:25,410 --> 01:05:26,940
We go to the same school.
1236
01:05:26,940 --> 01:05:28,050
- It's nice to see that everything
1237
01:05:28,050 --> 01:05:30,000
is working out around here.
1238
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:33,530
- Yeah, you'd actually like
her too, she's pretty cool.
1239
01:05:33,530 --> 01:05:38,113
- So tell me more about Monica.
1240
01:05:39,649 --> 01:05:44,649
(school bell rings)
(upbeat music)
1241
01:05:47,259 --> 01:05:50,050
- So how does it feel
to be an official adult?
1242
01:05:50,050 --> 01:05:51,522
- 18 years old, man.
1243
01:05:51,522 --> 01:05:53,950
- Hey, are you going to
the party tonight, man?
1244
01:05:53,950 --> 01:05:55,722
- No, I can't make it, dude, I gotta work.
1245
01:05:55,722 --> 01:05:57,953
- Ah, it won't be the
same without you there.
1246
01:05:57,953 --> 01:06:00,250
- That's right, a party
at the Burlington's
1247
01:06:00,250 --> 01:06:02,385
won't feel the same without
you in the corner all night.
1248
01:06:02,385 --> 01:06:03,759
(laughing)
1249
01:06:03,759 --> 01:06:04,592
- That's alright.
1250
01:06:04,592 --> 01:06:05,480
- I know that's right.
- It's cool.
1251
01:06:05,480 --> 01:06:07,220
Yeah I know, I know.
1252
01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:11,060
- Hey guys.
1253
01:06:11,060 --> 01:06:13,947
- Hey, what's up?
- What's up?
1254
01:06:13,947 --> 01:06:16,430
- Hey, I'll see y'all later, huh?
1255
01:06:16,430 --> 01:06:19,010
- Yeah, yeah, it's about that time.
1256
01:06:19,010 --> 01:06:19,843
- [Nicholas] Alright man,
y'all have fun tonight.
1257
01:06:19,843 --> 01:06:21,494
- [William] Don't do
nothing I wouldn't do.
1258
01:06:21,494 --> 01:06:22,327
- [Nicholas] Right.
1259
01:06:22,327 --> 01:06:23,160
- [Nate] Alright man,
you take it easy now.
1260
01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:23,993
- You too now.
1261
01:06:25,894 --> 01:06:26,727
Y'all be safe.
1262
01:06:29,007 --> 01:06:33,060
So Nicholas, what do you
have planned for tonight?
1263
01:06:33,060 --> 01:06:36,934
- Oh, tonight is not a
special occasion at all,
1264
01:06:36,934 --> 01:06:38,101
you know that.
1265
01:06:39,197 --> 01:06:40,030
- What?
1266
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:45,493
Well, what would you say if
I asked you to take off work?
1267
01:06:47,750 --> 01:06:49,330
- Monica, it's Friday, come on.
1268
01:06:49,330 --> 01:06:50,570
It's our busiest night.
1269
01:06:50,570 --> 01:06:51,996
- So what?
- I told Mr. Johnson
1270
01:06:51,996 --> 01:06:53,283
I'd be there.
1271
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:57,830
- I just feel like I wanna
do something special.
1272
01:06:57,830 --> 01:07:00,500
I mean, compared to other people,
1273
01:07:00,500 --> 01:07:03,222
since we met you made me feel different
1274
01:07:03,222 --> 01:07:05,953
like I really mattered to you.
1275
01:07:08,382 --> 01:07:09,215
Please?
1276
01:07:10,209 --> 01:07:13,126

1277
01:07:18,032 --> 01:07:20,949

- You can begin by letting yourself out.
1298
01:08:18,060 --> 01:08:19,307
- Hey (laughs softly).
1299
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:23,199
You know I thought we
can talk about the things
1300
01:08:23,199 --> 01:08:26,033
that well, you know,
that people talk about
1301
01:08:26,033 --> 01:08:28,193
that usually care for each other.
1302
01:08:29,430 --> 01:08:31,750
- Don't you dare play mind
games with me, Farris.
1303
01:08:31,750 --> 01:08:33,320
You are in my house.
1304
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:35,120
Now I want you to understand
that you came here
1305
01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:38,083
in one piece and you better
pray you leave the same way.
1306
01:08:39,050 --> 01:08:41,993
- Okay, okay.
1307
01:08:43,230 --> 01:08:47,130
But just let me go ahead and say my peace
1308
01:08:47,130 --> 01:08:49,183
and then I'll go right on my way.
1309
01:08:52,308 --> 01:08:55,743
Baby I'm so miserable without you.
1310
01:08:57,020 --> 01:09:00,560
It's not one day, not one
day that goes by Carol
1311
01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:02,660
that I don't think about you.
1312
01:09:02,660 --> 01:09:05,108
- You had sex with your secretary
1313
01:09:05,108 --> 01:09:08,030
in our bathroom, in our house.
1314
01:09:08,030 --> 01:09:11,840
Do you have any idea
what you put me through?
1315
01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:13,683
Let alone this family!
1316
01:09:14,620 --> 01:09:16,420
Do you, Farris?
1317
01:09:16,420 --> 01:09:20,287
- Baby, do you still me want me?
1318
01:09:20,287 --> 01:09:21,820
Do you still love me?
1319
01:09:21,820 --> 01:09:24,020
- That ain't got nothing
to do with nothing.
1320
01:09:26,620 --> 01:09:30,230
- Carol, listen to me, we used to have
1321
01:09:30,230 --> 01:09:34,560
some good times together and
I know you remember them.
1322
01:09:35,450 --> 01:09:37,110
I know you remember them.
1323
01:09:38,500 --> 01:09:42,610
You know, Carol life is
just like a baseball game.
1324
01:09:42,610 --> 01:09:45,143
You have to go out there everyday.
1325
01:09:46,860 --> 01:09:49,620
That's right, to live my life thinking
1326
01:09:51,020 --> 01:09:56,020
that I can replace what I had
with you with someone else.
1327
01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:01,030
But baby, over the course of time,
1328
01:10:01,030 --> 01:10:03,543
I realized that I could never,
1329
01:10:04,470 --> 01:10:07,053
I could never replace my wife.
1330
01:10:08,970 --> 01:10:11,860
So baby, I'm here to say I'm sorry
1331
01:10:11,860 --> 01:10:13,510
and I want you to come back home.
1332
01:10:21,046 --> 01:10:23,463
(door shuts)
1333
01:10:24,670 --> 01:10:28,800
- You will not believe what
happened to me tonight.
1334
01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:29,633
Oh man.
1335
01:10:31,550 --> 01:10:33,890
- I love you Carol.
1336
01:10:33,890 --> 01:10:37,120
Let's be a family again, Carol.
1337
01:10:37,120 --> 01:10:39,140
Do you know this man
had the audacity to try
1338
01:10:39,140 --> 01:10:42,370
and make me feel guilty
after I caught him cheating?
1339
01:10:42,370 --> 01:10:44,610
- I hope you're not mad that
I told him where you were.
1340
01:10:44,610 --> 01:10:46,600
- Girl, no, you're my sister.
1341
01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:48,620
You know, I didn't realize
that I had so many emotions
1342
01:10:48,620 --> 01:10:50,021
bottled up inside of me.
1343
01:10:50,021 --> 01:10:51,393
It was like a huge relief.
1344
01:10:52,740 --> 01:10:54,090
- So what are you gonna do?
1345
01:10:54,090 --> 01:10:55,703
You obviously still care.
1346
01:10:56,557 --> 01:10:57,420
- I don't know.
1347
01:10:57,420 --> 01:10:59,170
I mean the boys are doing so well here
1348
01:10:59,170 --> 01:11:02,000
and girl, this is my home now.
1349
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:04,270
- Home is where the heart is.
1350
01:11:04,270 --> 01:11:06,360
Take it from me Carol,
you do not wanna spend
1351
01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:07,510
the rest of your life wondering
1352
01:11:07,510 --> 01:11:09,980
if you and your husband
could've worked things out.
1353
01:11:09,980 --> 01:11:11,570
- So hypothetically speaking,
1354
01:11:11,570 --> 01:11:13,820
if Nate and William's father
came back into your life,
1355
01:11:13,820 --> 01:11:15,931
would you accept him?
1356
01:11:15,931 --> 01:11:17,363
- Oh, hell no!
1357
01:11:19,207 --> 01:11:22,207
(people chattering)
1358
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:28,830
- [Nicholas] So how do I look?
1359
01:11:28,830 --> 01:11:32,600
- So you made the baseball
team, that's real good.
1360
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:33,920
I'm proud of you son.
1361
01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:35,819
- Oh man, thanks a lot Mr. Johnson,
1362
01:11:35,819 --> 01:11:37,569
that means so much to me.
1363
01:11:37,569 --> 01:11:39,229
I had the final trials
yesterday after school
1364
01:11:39,229 --> 01:11:42,518
and coach handed these out
this morning, pretty cool, huh?
1365
01:11:42,518 --> 01:11:45,206
(soft piano music)
1366
01:11:45,206 --> 01:11:47,300
You know, I got a few
weeks 'til the first game,
1367
01:11:47,300 --> 01:11:50,133
you know, maybe we can work
on my swing a little bit.
1368
01:11:57,060 --> 01:11:58,620
Mr. Johnson, what's wrong?
1369
01:11:58,620 --> 01:12:00,173
You don't seem happy at all.
1370
01:12:01,092 --> 01:12:03,069
- Oh, I am happy for you.
1371
01:12:03,069 --> 01:12:06,520
I just don't think you're
gonna be working here anymore.
1372
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:07,640
- Of course I will.
1373
01:12:07,640 --> 01:12:10,140
Come on, the days I don't got games,
1374
01:12:10,140 --> 01:12:11,760
I can come in and work,
it's not a big deal--
1375
01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:15,729
- Nick, you being on the
baseball team is not the problem.
1376
01:12:15,729 --> 01:12:18,396
- Okay, then what's the problem?
1377
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:24,820
What's he doing here?
1378
01:12:24,820 --> 01:12:26,930
- He ain't looking for ice cream.
1379
01:12:26,930 --> 01:12:29,806
He came here over an
hour ago looking for you.
1380
01:12:29,806 --> 01:12:32,020
I think you ought to go
out there and talk to him.
1381
01:12:32,020 --> 01:12:35,243
- No, no, not at all, Mr. Johnson.
1382
01:12:35,243 --> 01:12:37,770
I have nothing to say to Ricky, nothing.
1383
01:12:37,770 --> 01:12:38,920
- Now you listen to me.
1384
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:42,133
You once told me I had made a mistake.
1385
01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:44,710
What if I hadn't listen to you?
1386
01:12:53,410 --> 01:12:54,593
- Long time, no see.
1387
01:12:55,532 --> 01:12:56,893
- What are you doing here, Ricky?
1388
01:12:57,770 --> 01:12:58,970
- Won't you have a seat?
1389
01:13:06,730 --> 01:13:08,600
Just came to see what's up.
1390
01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:10,393
See how my little brother was doing.
1391
01:13:11,257 --> 01:13:13,457
- You know, after dad paid
mom that little visit...
1392
01:13:14,370 --> 01:13:17,290
I knew it was only a matter
of time before you'd be here.
1393
01:13:17,290 --> 01:13:20,130
- Listen, Nicholas, this
is serious business.
1394
01:13:20,130 --> 01:13:21,533
No fooling around.
1395
01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:26,180
I'm gonna turn pro.
1396
01:13:26,180 --> 01:13:27,080
- What?
- That's right!
1397
01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:29,233
I'm gonna turn pro.
1398
01:13:30,170 --> 01:13:32,673
I mean, who knows where I'm gonna end up.
1399
01:13:35,570 --> 01:13:36,780
- Did somebody put you up to this?
1400
01:13:36,780 --> 01:13:39,810
- No, this is my decision.
1401
01:13:39,810 --> 01:13:43,023
I haven't told anybody about
this and I do mean anybody.
1402
01:13:44,360 --> 01:13:45,443
Not even our father.
1403
01:13:47,110 --> 01:13:49,883
- Okay, so what does any
of this have to do with me?
1404
01:13:50,860 --> 01:13:53,110
- I'm gonna talk to my
old high school coach.
1405
01:13:54,180 --> 01:13:55,730
I could probably get
you on the baseball team
1406
01:13:55,730 --> 01:13:58,570
before the season even starts.
1407
01:13:58,570 --> 01:14:01,163
Since I was hoping that
you'd be moving back home.
1408
01:14:02,770 --> 01:14:06,940
- No, in fact, hell no!
1409
01:14:06,940 --> 01:14:08,390
Ricky I don't need your help!
1410
01:14:09,860 --> 01:14:11,460
I'm perfectly fine where I am, okay?
1411
01:14:11,460 --> 01:14:12,740
Thank you.
1412
01:14:12,740 --> 01:14:15,780
- As always, that's your damn problem.
1413
01:14:15,780 --> 01:14:18,563
You never wanted to listen to anybody.
1414
01:14:22,780 --> 01:14:23,930
- You know what, Ricky?
1415
01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:29,153
I think back to when we were little,
1416
01:14:30,930 --> 01:14:33,353
when you won the Little League's
Player of the Year Award.
1417
01:14:35,430 --> 01:14:39,270
Dad must have took like five, six,
1418
01:14:39,270 --> 01:14:41,764
maybe even seven rolls of film on you.
1419
01:14:41,764 --> 01:14:44,450
That was like the
greatest day of his life.
1420
01:14:44,450 --> 01:14:48,480
From that day on, I grew up just wishing,
1421
01:14:51,820 --> 01:14:52,940
praying and just hoping
1422
01:14:52,940 --> 01:14:54,840
that I could be just like you someday.
1423
01:14:58,770 --> 01:15:00,370
But I had to learn the hard way.
1424
01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:03,693
I'm not you!
1425
01:15:05,703 --> 01:15:08,123
And I could never be you.
1426
01:15:11,660 --> 01:15:13,843
It's hard enough in life
just trying to be me.
1427
01:15:16,260 --> 01:15:18,533
- So I guess that makes
you a man now, huh?
1428
01:15:19,607 --> 01:15:21,573
- Life is like a game of baseball, Ricky.
1429
01:15:22,807 --> 01:15:23,857
You play it everyday.
1430
01:15:40,770 --> 01:15:43,773
- Not talking about it is
not gonna make it go away.
1431
01:15:45,410 --> 01:15:46,960
You're gonna leave, aren't you?
1432
01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:53,073
- Yes, no.
1433
01:15:54,923 --> 01:15:56,153
I don't even know.
1434
01:15:58,970 --> 01:16:02,270
- I thought you made a better
life for yourself here.
1435
01:16:02,270 --> 01:16:04,293
Why go back to the same disappointments?
1436
01:16:05,860 --> 01:16:07,507
- It's my mother, you know?
1437
01:16:09,428 --> 01:16:12,420
I can't let her down, I
put her through too much.
1438
01:16:12,420 --> 01:16:13,620
I gotta do what's right.
1439
01:16:16,228 --> 01:16:17,280
- Do you know how long it took me
1440
01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:19,493
to find somebody that
truly believes in me?
1441
01:16:21,238 --> 01:16:23,571
I just don't want you to go.
1442
01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:26,250
- I don't wanna go either
1443
01:16:26,250 --> 01:16:29,273
but life throws curve balls sometimes.
1444
01:16:30,240 --> 01:16:31,493
You just gotta adjust.
1445
01:16:33,150 --> 01:16:35,060
And I'll call you everyday
and I'll come visit you
1446
01:16:35,060 --> 01:16:37,075
every weekend, it'll be like I never left.
1447
01:16:37,075 --> 01:16:38,440
Come on, you know, come on.
1448
01:16:38,440 --> 01:16:39,983
- Sure, you'll call everyday?
1449
01:16:41,810 --> 01:16:43,110
- Like clockwork.
1450
01:16:43,110 --> 01:16:44,595
Come on, you think I wouldn't?
1451
01:16:44,595 --> 01:16:46,320
- And then everyday will
turn into once a week
1452
01:16:46,320 --> 01:16:48,290
and once a week will
turn into once a month
1453
01:16:48,290 --> 01:16:50,937
and before you know it,
the ties will be broken.
1454
01:16:52,002 --> 01:16:54,188
(soft piano music)
1455
01:16:54,188 --> 01:16:56,938
(birds chirping)
1456
01:17:02,723 --> 01:17:04,610
- [Nicholas] From the time
my mother left my father
1457
01:17:04,610 --> 01:17:08,423
up to this point, I truly believe
she was not a happy woman.
1458
01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:12,660
When she decided that we
would leave three years ago,
1459
01:17:12,660 --> 01:17:14,620
there was truly a major void in her life
1460
01:17:14,620 --> 01:17:16,733
that no other man was able to fill.
1461
01:17:17,980 --> 01:17:20,300
Life can be tricky like that sometimes.
1462
01:17:20,300 --> 01:17:23,620
You see, deep down inside, my mother knew
1463
01:17:23,620 --> 01:17:26,570
that her heart never completely left home.
1464
01:17:26,570 --> 01:17:29,550
And she felt that she
did not have enough time
1465
01:17:29,550 --> 01:17:30,813
to completely start over.
1466
01:17:32,320 --> 01:17:35,293
I guess you can say she just
simply wanted to be happy.
1467
01:17:36,990 --> 01:17:39,750
As for me, I didn't wanna
leave the foundation
1468
01:17:39,750 --> 01:17:40,900
I had built for myself.
1469
01:17:41,860 --> 01:17:44,943
Either way, my decision
was not going to be easy.
1470
01:17:45,834 --> 01:17:47,112
(knocking on door)
1471
01:17:47,112 --> 01:17:47,945
- Come in!
1472
01:17:49,062 --> 01:17:51,823
- Well, finished all my work.
1473
01:17:51,823 --> 01:17:54,250
It's really slow out there today.
1474
01:17:54,250 --> 01:17:55,083
- Okay.
1475
01:17:56,520 --> 01:18:01,520
- So, my work here is done
and I guess this is it.
1476
01:18:04,500 --> 01:18:06,050
- So you're breaking out on me.
1477
01:18:07,920 --> 01:18:09,563
- Yeah, this is goodbye.
1478
01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:15,790
Thanks for everything, Mr. Johnson.
1479
01:18:19,162 --> 01:18:22,079
(soft piano music)
1480
01:18:56,335 --> 01:18:57,668
- That's my boy!
1481
01:19:01,335 --> 01:19:03,752
(applauding)
1482
01:19:50,772 --> 01:19:52,208
What's wrong with you?
1483
01:19:52,208 --> 01:19:53,950
Where's your mind?
1484
01:19:53,950 --> 01:19:55,920
Get that smile off your face, Marcus,
1485
01:19:55,920 --> 01:19:57,550
this is a serious matter.
1486
01:19:57,550 --> 01:19:59,620
I told you to concentrate on the baseball
1487
01:19:59,620 --> 01:20:01,820
when you're out here
in the field, didn't I?
1488
01:20:02,956 --> 01:20:04,620
(knocking on door)
1489
01:20:04,620 --> 01:20:05,463
- Come in!
1490
01:20:12,916 --> 01:20:14,610
- [Nicholas] I came to
ask you my old job back.
1491
01:20:14,610 --> 01:20:16,995
- Hey, knucklehead.
1492
01:20:16,995 --> 01:20:20,293
Boy I see you in a dog's age.
1493
01:20:21,493 --> 01:20:23,224
Come on, let me show you
around the restaurant.
1494
01:20:23,224 --> 01:20:24,601
- Let's do it.
1495
01:20:24,601 --> 01:20:26,901
