All language subtitles for The Neighborhood 4x20 - Welcome to the Mama Drama (English)

All right, everybody, look.

My mama's gonna be here soon. Feet down.

Dave, you know how you
usually go on and on

about how great I am?

I know, I'll turn it down.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

I need you to turn it all the way up.

Sometimes she forgets the
light I bring into the world.

I'm gonna need the full Dave.

Okay, full Dave.

Locked and loaded.

Calvin, she's coming to see her baby boy

get the Chamber of Commerce Award.

Mama Marilyn's leaving a luxury cruise

with Calvin's brother just to be here.

Now, that is a proud mother.

Oh, where was my proud mother

when I got my award in fifth grade?

It was for perfect attendance, Marty.

And you didn't attend.

You don't see the irony in that?

Look, I just want this
visit to go perfectly.

Sometimes my mom can be
a little hard to please.

A little?

Mama Marilyn is a gangster.

She's the only one who can crack on Pop

without him cracking back.

Well, it's called respect.

And a little fear.

I grew up in the '70s.

Whuppin' kids was still in style.

- Yeah, that's it.
- It's true.

Ooh, she's here, y'all.

Ooh, I got flowers for her!

Okay, baby.

- Hi.
- Oh, my God!

Ooh, girl, you look beautiful as ever.

- Thank you.
- Hey, my grandbabies.

- You see me!
- I see you.

With faces like these,

why don't I have tons of
beautiful great-grandbabies?

Well, Marilyn, I'd settle
for just one ugly one.

You must be Dave and Gemma.

- Hi!
- Hi! Oh!

I feel so warm and safe.

Hey, Mama.

- Oh, there you are.
- Yeah, yeah.

You're looking good, baby.

But you got to start exfoliating.

Yeah.

Oh, no, uh, right. Uh, Mama Marilyn?

No need to exfoliate perfection.

I mean, do you see those pores?

No, you don't, because they don't exist.

Dave, come on.

Y-You're embarrassing me.

Come on.

Mmm, girl, if I had a cookbook,

I'd put your recipes in it.

I understand why your
business is booming.

- Aw, thank you, Marilyn.
- Yeah.

Well, you know, Calvin's auto
shop is doing great, too.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I can't eat a car.

You know, Mom, uh, the city is
literally giving me an award

for how my business
serves the community.

I think I'm doing all right.

Lighten up, Calvin.

Everything does not
have to be about you.

Well, you know, tonight kind of is.

Well, you know, Calvin getting an award

is pretty impressive,
don't you think, Marilyn?

It was 30 years ago when I got it.

They weren't just handing them
out to anybody back in the day.

Mm.

And they still aren't.

How cool is it that Calvin is
following in your footsteps?

Yeah, yeah. You know,
actually, I was just thinking

it should be called "the Butler Award."

Oh, that's good, that's good.

They should call it "the
Marilyn Butler Award."

Because I got it first.

Well, mine's gonna be shinier
than yours because it's new.

What-what's that, Calvin?

Uh, I was just, I was saying
that I like your new hairdo.

Oh.

That's either potato
chip grease or glue.

Only one way to find out.

Oh.

Peanut butter.

That's nasty.

This is why I always get
my own bowl of chips.

Hey, so what's this history collage
you guys are working on?

We're learning about the
Elaine Massacre in Arkansas.

Hmm, I never learned
about that in school.

Hundreds of Black people
were killed in a riot in 1919.

The book says that state
officials tried to cover it up.

Oh, this is a part of the new
diverse studies program

that your mom started, huh?

Yeah, Mom doesn't want us growing up

as clueless as you guys did.

Well... I don't want to be clueless,

so I'm gonna learn with you guys.

My dad says there's lots of people

who'd rather act like those
things never happened.

Well, unfortunately, he's not wrong.

Boys, set your alarm.

It's time for me to get woke.

I'm sorry, he learned it from TikTok.

There's nothing I can do.

And where would Calvin's Pit Stop be

without my Tina?

She's the engine of my life

with the performance
chassis that is built

to hug my road.

Ooh, that's fire, baby!

Hold up.

You're not really gonna
use that tonight, are you?

Not anymore. No.

Uh, so what time does this
little thing start tonight?

Uh, well, this "little
thing" starts at 6:00.

Aren't you gonna get ready?

Yeah, yeah, I'm just working
on my acceptance speech.

How hard is it just to say,

"Thank you, God, thank you, Mama,"

and get the hell off the stage?

Um...

Marilyn... I am supposed to
introduce Calvin tonight,

but since you're here,

why don't you say some nice words

about him in my place?

Oh, Tina, that's a wonderful idea.

- Thank you.
- Okay.

Uh, Mama, you sure you can put
together a speech at the last minute?

Last minute is when I do my best work.

Oh, babe.

Um, I probably should've run
that by you first. I'm sorry.

No, you know what, don't be.

- Thank you.
- Mm.

Now my mama will be forced
to brag about me in public.

You know?

I wonder what she's
gonna talk about first.

You know, my business savvy,

or how the community loves me?

Or... oh, oh!

Or how humble I am.

Stop fighting me, Double Stuf!

Excuse me, Mrs. Johnson?

Yep.

Stan Simmons, Eden's dad.

They said I'd find you
by the vending machine.

That's sad.

Um...

- How can I help you?
- I just want to say

I'm, uh, really struggling with
this new diversity curriculum.

- "Struggling"?
- Well, not me. More Eden.

I mean, there's educating,

and then there's burdening
our children with guilt,

which can lead to depression
and God knows what else.

Well, we certainly
don't want any of that.

Mm-hmm.

But the goal is to tell the truth

about our country's history.

But by being exposed to this curriculum,

she's feeling responsible for things

she had nothing to do with.

Like race riots and slavery.

Well, our children
didn't fight the British,

but we teach them about
the American Revolution.

I just think it's important for
our kids to get the full picture.

I was hoping to avoid this,
Mrs. Johnson, but, um...

I donate a lot of money to this school,

and I'd hate to take it
and my child elsewhere.

I think the old textbook
gave the right picture.

If you donate so much money,

why don't we have better
vending machines?

Wow, Pop, it is crazy how this night
is supposed to be about you,

but, uh, everybody is
loving on Mama Marilyn.

Well, that's all right.

Because in a minute,

she's about to give me all my props.

Now sit down and eat
your little sea bass.

Fun fact.

Marty, this is the quiet
part of the dinner.

Uh, you okay?

I'm fine. Why do you ask?

Well, you're... double-fisting ros�s.

They're small.

I just can't stop thinking about
that big donor from school.

I've gotten more calls
about the new book.

If we lose donations over
this, I could lose my job.

Well, I think you need to let all
the parents voice their opinions.

I mean, if you're gonna go
down, go down fighting.

You know what, you're right.

I'll call a meeting and explain how
important this new curriculum is.

- Yeah.
- Thanks, honey.

Two more ros�s, please.

Relax, one's for you.

Okay, all right, everybody, here we go.

- Forks down, cameras up.
- Get your camera.

Welcome, everybody.

Here to introduce

this year's Excellence in
Business award winner

is a recipient herself for
her employment agency,

and my first crush.

Mrs. Marilyn Butler.

Uh, uh,

Tina, get me a napkin.

This-this is about to
get deep, I'm sure.

Okay.

Thank you, everyone.

What can I say about my son, Calvin...

... that he hasn't already
told you about himself?

Okay, ev-everybody starts
their speech off with a joke.

Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah, no.

That was a pretty good one.

I always knew Calvin
would be his own boss.

He had to be.

No one else would hire him.

Calvin, your mom is killing it.

All my laughs are fake, by the way.

I'm so sorry, baby.

Asking her to do the
intro was a mistake.

No, Marty's outfit is a mistake.

This is a disaster.

Wow.

Seriously, since there were
so many people tonight

who thanked me for helping
them start their businesses,

I think I should get this award again.

Wow!

We love you, Marilyn!

Sit on down, Frank. Stop flirting.

But, seriously, this award
is a great honor for my son.

I'm sure he's gonna cherish
it like it's his first one.

Because it is.

Oh!

This has got to be almost over, right?

If there's a God.

I can go on and on about Calvin,

but why do that when he's
so much better at it?

Ladies and gentlemen,
this year's honoree

and his own biggest fan,

my son, Calvin Butler.

Go, Daddy!

Oh, she thinks she got jokes?

I got jokes.

Ca-Calvin, don't do it.
She's your mother.

You'll regret it. Just stick to your
speech. Baby, you'll be fine.

All right, go ahead, baby!

- That's my husband!
- Go, Dad! Go!

You want me to stay up here with you?
Make sure they keep laughing?

No, Mama, I got it. Uh, Frank?

- Would you mind? Thank you.
- Oh, yeah, yeah, of course.

Yeah, please, go with Frank, Mama.

Thank you. And, uh...

thank you, Mama, for those kind words.

If it wasn't for your
endless positivity,

who knows where I would be today?

I mean, it's that kind of motherly love

and support that keeps me going.

Is he making fun of me?

Oh, the tiramis� is delicious.
Did you have some?

And again, I just want to say thank you

to my wonderful mother, my
beautiful wife, my two sons,

and the Chamber of Commerce

for this great award.

Thank you guys so much.

So that's how you get your laughs, huh?

Making fun of your mama?

I just read from my speech.

Just be happy you can't read my mind.

Ooh.

Calvin, I've got to say...

I'm kind of afraid of your mom.

Well, I'm a grown-ass
man, Dave, and I'm not.

- Oh, I think she's coming back.
- Okay, okay...

And that's why I stand
behind my decision.

This book is not teaching
an alternate history.

It's teaching the history of America.

Yeah.

The floor is open for comments.

You did great, hon.
I'm really proud of you.

Me, too. You know, I like watching
you take on the masses.

And by "masses,"
I mean "ignorant asses."

Stan Simmons, Eden's dad.

The world's already a scary place.

We don't need our
children's innocent minds

filled with stuff they
don't need to know about

by so-called educators.

Let our kids... be kids.

Did he just say "so-called"?

Yes, he did.

Hold my earrings. This might get ugly.

Mm-hmm.

Here, hold my earrings, too.

I'm her ride-or-die.

Can we say something?

Grover?

What are you kids doing here?

We came to say we don't
want the old book.

We like the new one.

We want to learn the
truth about our history.

Yeah, we're not scared.

We can handle anything.

We eat the lunch here.

We are the youth...

And we want the truth!

Sorry, Dad, I'm not uncomfortable.

You are. These things happened.
I need to know about it.

You kids are too young for all of this.

I disagree.

If my son's old enough
to experience racism,

then your daughter is old
enough to learn about it.

Yeah.

Y-You're making a big mistake.

And it's gonna cost you.

Mr. Simmons,

I know in my heart if we
don't tell the whole story,

that will be the mistake.

But if parents like you
are gonna threaten

to pull your donations over this,

then this isn't the place for me.

No, Ms. Johnson,
we love what you're doing.

I'd be happy to donate more money

so our kids can learn
their true history.

Us, too.

Oh, count me in.

And my kids don't even
go to this school.

Thanks again for your hospitality, Tina.

And thanks for the ride
to the airport, boys.

Somebody else was too busy.

Well, I don't remember
somebody asking me.

Well, I'm sorry you had
to cut your trip short.

Ouch, man. It's already
uncomfortable enough.

I don't need you poking me.

Mama Marilyn, are you sure you
can't stay for another day or two?

Uh, thank you, Malcolm,

but I know when I'm not wanted.

Again... just reading from
my prepared speech.

Mm-hmm.

Disrespected by my own son.

"Disrespected"?

Me disrespecting you?

Oh! Wow!

That is rich.

Boy, are you coming for me?

No, Mama, this my house right here.

- I need you to understand this...
- Oh! Oh! Oh!

Oh! Okay, oh, oh, wait, okay, all right!

It is time that you both acknowledge

that you are just alike.

Spicy and lovable all
wrapped up into one.

Which is why I love you both.

But nobody is leaving my house
until you talk things out.

That's right, I said it.

Well, I guess Tina told you.

I thought she was telling you.

Ma, I just wanted this visit
to be different this time.

I mean, I was proud of that award,

and I wanted you to be, too.

Calvin, I am proud of you.

Well, it doesn't feel like it.

In fact, it's never felt like it.

My whole life, I've
been second with you.

I mean, and I'm your firstborn.

Curtis...

he gets all the attention.

And I got all the wisecracks.

You didn't need my attention.

Like Tina said, we're just alike.

Good-looking, intelligent,

independent and thick-skinned.

- You see what you did?
- What?

You were talking about me, but really,

it was a compliment about you.

Oh, that's where I get that from.

Son, you were the kind of kid

that if I said there was something
impossible for you to do,

you would get up the
next day and just do it.

Well, why did I get a whupping

when you said it was impossible
for me to drive your car?

Baby, you were only 12 years old.

I mean, it was a small car,
you remember that?

- It was a little bitty car.
- Yeah, I remember.

Look, you were a shooting star then.

You're a shooting star now.

Well, that would've been a nice
line for your speech last night.

But where's the fun in that?

Calvin, I love the man you've become.

Despite the fact that you
was gonna kick my ass out.

No, you were the one
that wanted to leave.

Well, now I'll stay a few extra days.

And you can make it up to me.

- My baby.
- Thanks, Mama.

- Thank you, honey.
- So, uh...

how many extra days we talking?

I'm playing, I'm playing.

You know, it's been a while
since I've stretched out

the old karaoke cords, but...

Mama Marilyn, you are in for a treat.

Oh, no, baby. We're
gonna save you for last.

- Okay, baby, start us off.
- Baby, you know I'm tired.

? Hey sista, soul sista ?

? Go sista, flow sista ?

? He met Marmalade down
in old New Orleans ?

? Struttin' her stuff on the street ?

? She said, "Hello, hey, Joe ?

? You wanna give it a go?" ?

- ? Gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya, da-da ?
- ? Ooh ?

? Gitchie, gitchie, ya-ya, here ?

? Yeah, well, well ?

? Mocha chocolata ya-ya ?

- ? Say what ?
- ? Creole Lady Marmalade ?

? Oh voulez-vous coucher
avec moi, ce soir ? ?

- Come on, y'all!
- So you still want to follow this?

Nope.

? Voulez-vous coucher
avec moi, ce soir ? ?

? Voulez-vous coucher avec... ?
