All language subtitles for Queen Sugar s05e03 Late April 2020.eng

[Narrator] Previously on
"Queen Sugar"...

Didn't tell me your ex-wife
was going to be here.

[Hailey] he's always
had a thing for the exotic.

Did you think
you were the only one?

She is the only one.

[Micah]
I'm almost 20 years old.

I don't need to consult you
every time I want to

make a decision
like some little boy.

Everyone
is worried about harvest.

We get to choose
how we deal with things.

They can't steal our joy
unless we let them.

I've just been keeping
a eye out on that virus.

We're here for you,
whatever you need.

So I'm giving you a heads-up.

Vi's pies will have to close
for a couple of weeks.

[Reporter on radio]
in the state of Louisiana

the great danger
farmhands face are outbreaks

from coronavirus,
especially during crop season,

where labor shortages
threaten harvesting

and a farm's viability
to survive.

Produce crops such as berries
have a short lifespan.

If a farm doesn't have enough
workers to harvest

in that small window of time,
they're done for the season.

Other crops such as corn
and sugarcane,

which rely heavily
on machinery,

sadly are having to see
their crops go to waste

due to the closing
of the local mills,

a direct effect of COVID-19,

leaving this Louisiana crop season
and the farming community in jeopardy.

Benny Ben,
what's good with you?

Oh, this covid thing got us all,
but we gonna make it through.

That's right.

Hey, look, I'll bring you back
next season. That's my word.

Chris.

What's up, brother?

No, can't start up again.
We got to wait it out.

The cane looks beautiful
right now, it's so high,

I ain't really seen it
like this.

We're usually done
harvesting by now.

What did you say?

For real?

He tested positive?

Oh, that's crazy.

Hey, look, I appreciate you. We're
going to be back on the land in no time.

That's right.

Be safe. You too, now.
All right.

[gentle song playing]

Good morning.

Hmm.

Good morning.

You don't mind
me sitting here...

Do you?

You can stay
as long as you'd like.

In fact, I insist.

[light chuckle]

Once I'm done with my meetings

and our community check-in,

I'll make sure
the rest of the your day...

Is busy.

- I like busy.
- Oh, I know you do.

I love being in quarantine
with you.

Mmm. You know I feel bad
for saying it...

This time
has been pretty terrific.

Just being together.

It's a privilege
and I'm thankful.

We are definitely privileged.

People are out
there struggling.

But inside here,

with us, it's been...

Beautiful

and intimate.

I'm grateful for you too.

Intimate
like three times a day.

You don't mind, do you?

- No.
- Didn't think so.

Did you get the honey butter ham and
potato salad ready for parthena's delivery?

I got it right here.

You should have heard her talk
about how much she missed

being able to host easter dinner
at her house with her grandkids.

She sounded so sad.

Oh, I'm sure all this goodness
you cooked up

is going to hit the spot
and cheer her right up.

You know what?

Put one of these Dutch apple
cherry pies in her order too.

You know, baby, all this
feels like some kind of test.

What you mean?

Maybe this is how we find out
what we're made of.

You know, as a people,
as a community,

do we or do we not
have each other's back?

I believe that. Between
this place closing down

and my place never opening
up, it's the worst test I ever took.

But we got to
just keep doing our part.

Keep doing our best.

Yep, at least we can get all this
into the bellies of folks who need it

instead of my trash can which
is where it would've had to go,

you know, if it stayed
in that freezer much longer.

[cell phone ringing]

- Hey there, mama.
- [Willa Mae] hey, son.

- Hey, there miss Willa Mae.
- [Willa Mae] hey, vi.

- She said, "hey, vi."
- [chuckles]

you get that package
I sent you?

Mom, what you mean
it's still on the porch?

I told you she wasn't going
to open it until 14 days pass.

She said you're, right.

Hey, tell Willa Mae...

Mama, vi, look,
I'm not going to keep

playing phone operator now,
all right?

Is it okay
if I talk to my mama?

Come on. [Kisses]

He's grumpy.

Mama, you know
I got all of your essentials.

I got your vitamin d,
I got your Benadryl,

and all that stuff
that you asked for.

Better open it up.

And the fact of the matter is,
St. Jo is just a blip

on the state's radar
right now.

We couldn't get funding
to expand our hospital's icu

before the pandemic,
can't expect it now.

And now we're at capacity.

We're beyond capacity.

This was just supposed to be two
weeks, now we're weeks into this.

We got the er setting up
triage tents in the parking lots.

But what happens when
they fill up completely, huh?

Where will sick people
go then?

And this is why
we can't afford people

not adhering
to the stay-at-home order.

Lives are in the balance.

Not to mention,
we're still waiting

on federal funds for the
elderly and unemployed.

But according to our COVID-19
task force report,

the majority of st Jo's
businesses have either shut

or are in the process
of doing so.

What do you mean
"in the process"?

Non-essentials
shouldn't be operating

outside of the mandated
guidelines, period.

Yeah, and I should be in the
Bahamas working on my tan.

But that ain't happening.

[Angela] people take issue with
what's deemed essential, Charley,

and they aren't
going to let go of something

they've spent their entire
lives building without a fight.

Is that why your aunt Violet's
diner's still open for business, Charley?

The diner is not open
for business.

Oh, I drove by
there the other day

and it looked like some
activity was going on in there.

"Activity."

Violet bordelon is doing more

for her community than you
have or ever will, Jackson.

Calm down and do your job.

I'm done here.

[sighs]

That's what I need.

A nice hot cup of coffee.

Who said this was coffee?

[laughing]

[Nova] Before we kick off our
tru papers good neighbor action,

I'd like to thank
you all for showing up,

for putting these
care packages together

for the people of St. Jo
with such love and respect.

So if anyone asks for more
of anything,

hand sanitizer,
masks, whatever,

we don't understand
the word "no."

Just direct them to the tru papers
helpline and we'll accommodate.

We are love in action.

All right, let's hit it!
[chuckles]

- [Calvin] you ready?
- Always.

[upbeat song playing]

♪ Oh, honey ♪

♪ It always seems
to find you ♪

[Nova] we should put it

[Calvin] It's a good day,
final stop ahead.

[Nova] Gotta save
the best for last.

How many karens did you
have to fight off to get all this?

Oh, god, I barely got
out of that store alive.

The shelves were totally
empty, completely wiped out.

It's like we're living
in the apocalypse.

Looking like you made out fine
to me.

I mean, I did what I could.

We might have some weird
food combinations for meals,

but I think we might be okay
for a while.

I sanitize, you put away?

Let's do it.

Where's blue?

In his room,
catching up with school.

Internet been acting
all wonky all day,

- kicking him offline.
- [scoffs]

it's been happening like that all
morning. Our Internet is so slow.

Yeah, I think everything's been
moving slow in St. Jo right now.

Wi-Fi been tripping.

It's not like we have
the latest fiber optic cables

out here, though,
in the first place.

I mean, if his classes
are going to be online,

shouldn't the school district make sure
all the students can access the Internet?

Theoretically, yes,
practically, a whole other story.

[Ralph exhales]

Spent most of the day
checking in on folks,

trying to explain this
covid thing

and how
it's messing everything up.

Are you okay?

What am I saying?
Of course you're not okay.

Actually, I am.

Weird enough.

I just gotta call them
about everything.

Had to let go of some people.

Shit is bad and...

Yeah, I don't know when it's
gonna start looking good again,

but did what I had to do

and I feel like I did
the right thing.

What about
getting a crop loan?

Wouldn't that help?

Banks ain't giving loans
to no farms right now.

To be honest,
I'm happy we ain't harvested.

It would have went to waste

like all them other farms
throwing out all their product.

[exhales]

Next year,

the soil will be
three times as rich.

We can recoup everything we didn't make
this year, so I'm not worried about that.

I feel like the land's
gonna take care of us.

Just got to be patient.

You've been really beautiful
through all this.

I mean, it ain't come easy.

We've seen our ups and downs,

but, hell,
this is where we at.

I guess it is
what it is, right?

Yeah.

Okay, well, we have
the money that you saved

from not prepping
for the harvest.

But have you thought about
asking Charley for a loan?

Just to tide us over.

Darla, I'm not
asking Charley for anything.

Especially not no loan.

I can't go running to Charley
every time something come up.

Look, I need you to trust me.

I've been here before.

We just got to take our time,
but we're going

to figure it out together,
all right?

My job is saying "we're closed"
to the public for three weeks

and then
we have a meeting online.

Hopefully, they'll tell us
when we get to go back

and I'm going to have
my paycheck

from my full-time job.

That'll help us, right?

It should. It will.

Like I said, we got this.

Just got to believe.

[Charley] the council has been
getting reports of businesses

flouting the safety protocols.

[Violet] we are just making
care packages

for folks who are struggling
and can't get in.

- You know that.
- [Charley] are Nova and Calvin still delivering?

As long as it's contactless
delivery, it's fine.

[Violet] I know that,
councilwoman bordelon.

It's not me.

[Charley] it's what the state
of Louisiana is mandating.

[Violet] oh, the same state that
stopped accepting applications

for the small business
relief fund?

Got people like me out here

robbing Peter to pay Paul trying
to keep our heads above water.

[Charley] I am working to help
get the backlog cleared,

but there's talk
of the health inspector

going around
shutting people down.

I don't want you
get caught up in that.

[Violet] oh, I appreciate
that, Charley.

But how long
is this gonna go on?

I mean, people are not going
to stay at home forever.

People need people, you know,
to touch and feel each other.

Supposed to be two weeks.

It's been a lot longer
than that.

[Charley] I know.

Trust me, I know.

[Violet] how's Micah?

[Charley] he's coming
home tonight.

Finally,
semester's almost over.

He stuck it out in his dorm,

but I think
he finally ran out of food.

[both laughing]

I'm just glad he's going to be
under my roof.

[Violet] yeah, good luck.

Hmm?

I just remember
when Nova came back,

after being away
at school, ooh,

her and Ernest fought
like cats and dogs.

[Charley] well, that's...
That's not me and Micah.

[Violet] okay, well,
just remember, he's grown.

And once you have
lived on your own,

it's hard to live under
somebody else's rules again.

[man on TV] ...Says
once-bustling city streets

have become eerily quiet,

- while lines outside hospitals...
- [knock on door]

...Stretch around the block.

Makeshift morgues are being
prepared, the governor says

- in three weeks coronavirus...
- [door opens and shuts]

- [Nova] hey, Mr. Prosper?
- Oh, Nova.

[Nova] I got
some essentials for you,

plus a few meals from aunt vi,

and a whole peach
and pecan pie.

It is good to see you.

I'd give you a hug if I could,

but just leave
those things in the kitchen.

[Nova] I will.

It's good to see you
been thinking about you.

Yeah, I appreciate that.
I'm doing fine.

- You getting out any?
- I'm fine.

Well, this care package
has masks,

hand sanitizer,
cleaning products.

If you like, I could put it
away for you,

make sure everything's
where it should be.

Just leave it on the kitchen
counter and I'll get to it.

[Nova] Mr. Prosper, you sure
you don't need help with anything

- before I go?
- [prosper] if I need anything,

Nova, I'll make it known
to you.

Thank you.

- [Nova] okay.
- [man on TV continues speaking]

[sighs]

[man on TV] ...Analysts say
that the pandemic may last

anywhere from six months
to a year.

[Darla] if you carry
this over to here...

No, but then that
makes that not work.

How about I try

dividing this first,

then carry it over
and add the remainder?

There, I got it!

Okay. Look at Einstein!

Guess my work here is done.

- You got this.
- Don't go.

You can stay
and be my moral support.

Your moral support?

- [scoffs] whatever.
- [Ralph] good morning.

Good morning.

Good morning, pops.

Morning, blue.

Thought you had that
staff meeting online today?

I do, but I wanted to help him
with his math packet first

before getting online and
the Internet's acting up again.

We're having
"technical difficulties."

We should probably figure out that
meeting. Them work hours are important.

I know, but, uh...

I don't want him to get more
behind than he already is.

It's just one lesson.
I'm sure it'll be fine.

Right. I don't know. I just...

I can't seem to think
clearly these days.

- Come on, blue.
- Hmm?

Just let your mommy
use the computer.

Mmm-hmm. See you later, mom.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Come on, Einstein.

I guess it's just you and me.

What are we working on today?

Trying not to go stir-crazy.

[chuckling]
sounds like a plan.

And vi's been working
so hard at the diner,

I figured this would be
a good surprise for her.

Now, do I put this bourbon on
the chicken skin or in the sauce?

Hollingsworth,
what are you doing?

Are you trying
to get everybody drunk?

You do not soak the chicken
in those spirits.

- Okay.
- You put it in the sauce.

I hear you, mama.

What you doing after
dinner tonight?

I'm supposed to be
playing bridge

with my ladies
on the computer.

Let's see how that goes.

Oh, sounds like fun.
Y'all gonna have a good time.

No, no. You have to keep
your eye on miss Christine.

You know, she likes to cheat even
when we get together playing in person.

So I don't know what kind
of stuff she might try to pull

- while we all virtual.
- Yeah, she do be cheating.

[coughing]

That don't sound good.

[continues coughing]

Oh, that ain't nothing.

Everything ain't the rona.

I'm fine. It's just a little
dry in here this time of day,

I just need to turn that
humidifier on, that's all.

You sure about that?

- I'm fine, son.
- 'cause, you know, I would go

straight up to Baton Rouge
with the quickness.

You better stay at your house
and mind your business.

I'm fine. Okay?

I'm good. I'm great.

I told you, just fine,
all right?

Now...

What are you making
for dessert?

Cut up some fruit or something,
that'd go nice with that chicken.

All right.

No, I'm not rocking
with it, man.

It couldn't be me.

It couldn't... anybody
who gets a back-tat

is going to regret it when
they're like, [chuckling] 45.

I'm so...

Mom, I'm just...

I'm just talking to my boys,
I'm gonna...

I'MMA hit y'all back.
All right.

- Hey.
- [Charley] welcome home.

Thank you.

I'm gonna, um,
clean all this up.

I was just zooming for a
philosophy final I got coming up

I thought I'd come in here
and relax for a second.

[Charley] yeah, it's fine.

Really.

Actually wonderful
to have you home.

Safe and sound.

A couple days
we'll get you a test so...

We can be together and
not have to wear these masks.

I understand.

And just so you know,
I'm an adult.

You are an adult,
so it's all good.

It's all good?

Yeah.

It's all good.

Okay, mom. Thank you.

So, what do you want
for dinner?

Oh, I was actually
gonna go for a drive.

You know, just clear my head.

Maybe stop by a friend's
place really quick.

Wait.

We talked about this
before you came home.

I know. I was just... - you agreed
not to visit friends, frat brothers,

keke, anyone, until the
stay-at-home order's lifted.

I won't.

At least the keke part
will be easy.

Oh, no, what happened?

[chuckles] she broke up
with me

for some other guy.

Yeah. She had
a whole new boyfriend.

Oh. I mean...

I'm shocked.

- I'm sorry.
- Yeah.

Uh, yeah, it's for the better.

You know, we ran our course.

Just different...

Paths.

Uh...

But dinner,
I will eat whatever you make.

I'm starving.

Very hungry. So hungry.
Thank you.

That's one way to cut down
on the grocery bill.

Just grow it yourself.

Well, I'll have a lot more time
to spend on getting this growing.

I've been officially laid off.

You said "laid off"?

What do you mean laid off?
What happened?

[sighs] apparently
there was an outbreak

among the staff that was
still working on-site.

Seven people came up positive.

To be safe, they're shutting
everything down until further notice.

So what's gonna happen to all them
people and their insurance claims?

They'll get backlogged.

- They paying you still?
- For two weeks.

And then I get furloughed.

What's that mean?

It means that we're still
technically employees

and we still get benefits,

but no checks.

[sighs]

[farmer] she looks
in good condition.

Kept her up well.

[Ralph] she run well, too.

Brand-new clutch, new tires.

Just got the hydraulics
replaced last year.

- So what you think?
- What are you asking for it?

- 8,500.
- 8,500?

[farmer]
it's a little steep, ain't it?

[Ralph] look, man, four-wheel drive,
three-speed diesel with 60-inch hitch.

I don't think so.

[farmer]
I'll give you 5,500 for it.

[Ralph]
shit, I ain't giving it away.

Look, man, times is hard,
but not that hard.

Hey, I appreciate you stopping
by. You have a good one.

[farmer] 6,000.

[farmer] 6,500 cash
and that's as high as it gets.

[Ralph] 7,500.

[farmer] I'll meet you
at 7,000.

I'm not trying to
get over on you.

It's all I got.

[Ralph] I hear you.

We got a deal if you got cash.

[farmer] okay.

[Ralph] I'll start
the paperwork.

[melancholy song playing]

♪ While you were sleeping... ♪

♪ While you were laughing... ♪

Come on.

I'm sorry if I disturbed you.

You're not.

Who are you praying for?

Prosper.

Clearing his energy,

removing some
of the loneliness,

the despair I believe
he's starting to feel.

That visit really got to you.

We thought we'd be home
for two weeks.

It's been six,

and he's been
locked in alone all that time.

And I walk in and he's watching
what's happening in New York.

Overflowing morgues,

essential workers exposing
themselves and their families

because there's not enough
damn protective gear.

I mean, really?

They're literally asking
people to stay at home

until they can't
breathe anymore.

What is that?

How's he supposed to process
that sitting in the house alone?

I'm worried about him, too.

Yeah, I'm worried
for everyone, frankly.

People our age,
young people, children.

And everyone is having a whole
different set of issues around this.

Yeah.

My kids are
having a rough time.

- They are?
- Yeah, they're restless.

No interaction
with other kids.

Having to learn online.

This whole thing
is just not easy.

They keep telling me they want
things to go back the way they were.

Don't we all?

Don't we all?

- [line ringing]
- [mouthing]

[sighs]

[hangs up]

[line ringing]

Hello. Hello. Miss Florence.

Hey, hey, this is Hollywood.
This is Willa Mae's son. Yeah.

Um, have you talked
to my mother lately?

Yeah. I...

Haven't been able to get
a hold of her all day.

Oh, thank you.

If you could stop by
that would be perfect.

Yeah.

Yeah, thank you so much.
Thank you.

All right.

All right. All right, you have
a good one now. Okay.

- All right, bye-bye.
- [hangs up]

you've been spending
a lot of time out here.

Sold one of my tractors today.

Thought it would put a dent
in some of these bills,

but it just ain't
gonna cut it.

Truth is...

I can't bring in harvest
this year.

Just a fact. Got to accept it.

[scoffs]

Guess it come
with the territory, huh?

My daddy struggled.

I ain't no different.

Shit. The last thing
I'm gonna do is let my pride

get in the way of me
supporting my family.

I don't want you selling off
pieces of your life

just to support us.

I don't feel good about that.

[sighs]

I'm gonna get another job.

Well, I am, too.

- What?
- That's right.

I'm gonna let this harvest
return itself back to the land

and go ahead
and get me a regular job.

Can't control things, Darla.

Only control how
you feel about it.

That's what mawmaw
always used to say.

A wise woman.

Very wise. [Chuckles]

Real question is,
who's hiring?

Got about 20 million
people out of work

right now with
this covid thing.

That's true.

[Darla sighs]

What about, um...

Alcent nursing homes?

I read they're short on staff.

It might be risky.

Nothing ain't risky
in 2020, baby.

[cell phone ringing]

Hello.

Yeah. This him.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

No, that's perfect.

4:00 P.M.?

Yeah, yeah, will do.

All right.

[exhales deeply]

I agree with you. I never
thought of it that way.

You feel me, like?

I guess I saw it both ways,

- but that makes more sense.
- [knock on door]

come in.

- Hey, I'm heading out.
- Hey.

- You need anything?
- I'm good.

I'm just on the phone
with my friend.

[woman on phone] oh, my god.
Is that your mom?

I love her so much.
Ooh, can I say hi?

[chuckling] you're on speaker.

- She can hear you.
- For real?

Oh, my goodness!

[stammers] uh, hello, Charley.
I mean, miss bordelon west.

- Who is that?
- Hold on.

It's this girl
I go to school with.

She look like SZA.
And she is obsessed with you.

Please say hi. Make her day.

- [phone beeps]
- hey.

Hello. It's Charley bordelon.

How are you?

Oh, my gosh. It's your voice!

Yeah, it's my voice all right.

- Nice to meet you. Okay, bye-bye.
- Bye!

Oh, my gosh.
She's so nice! [laughs]

In all the magazines and stuff.
And on the sidelines at the game.

She always looks so damn good.

You always look so damn good.

- [chuckles]
- I'm serious.

There you go.

I'm looking forward to
spending some time with you.

You know, after this is
all over, some real time.

Yeah, I want that, too.

- A lot.
- Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Yeah, I bet you do.

[woman] Mr. Bordelon,
come on back.

[clears throat]

And then, pending a negative
COVID-19 test,

you'll be required to finish our mandatory
protocols and procedures workshop.

That's if you're hired.

- Any questions so far?
- No, ma'am.

Mr. Bordelon,

you're clear that this is
a custodial position, right?

Yes, ma'am, I'm clear.

And I very much
appreciate the opportunity.

Do you... I mean,
you're a farmer by trade.

Used to being your own boss.
And the pay here...

Well, I guess what
I'm getting at is that

this is a caregiving business.

Our number-one priority
is the safety and wellbeing

- of our elderly.
- I understand.

This isn't a job you take just
because your money's gotten funny.

It's unglamorous work,

and we hold our residents
most sacred.

I'm not looking for
just a clock-puncher.

I want someone that wants to
be of service to our residents.

I found that those are our team
members that work out the best.

Miss Thompson.

My father's Ernest bordelon.

He was a farmer.

He also pushed
a broom for a living.

Waxed floors,
scrubbed toilets,

did what he had to do
for his family.

But he did it
with his head up.

You know, growing up,
he taught me to do the same.

Checked his ego at the door.

So I take pride in making sure
folk live in dignity.

I admit,
my money is kind of funny.

In fact, it's hilarious.

But being here is a choice.

And I know what it takes.
And I understand what this is.

As you also said, I am a boss,

so I know what
a good employee look like.

I'm here to solve
your problems, miss Thompson.

Can you start on Monday?

Yes, I can.

[line ringing]

[sighs]

Chamomile, honey,

a little bit of lemon,
stirred with a cinnamon stick.

So how's prosper?

I couldn't get a hold
of him just now.

Thank you for this.

I know your mama's
on your mind.

Yeah.

Her neighbor says she
stopped by, checked on her.

Yeah, she was doing okay,
just a bit lethargic.

I looked up that symptom.

It wasn't good.

Every time I talk to mama,
she says she's okay.

But I don't like it.

Maybe you should run on up
there and see about her.

You won't put
your mind at peace

till you lay eyes on her.

Hey, what about
your deliveries?

Oh, your mama's
more important.

Maybe I'll...

Head out first light.

Check on prosper first.

[man 1 on TV] time to play...

[woman 1 on TV]
satellite and radar...

[cell phone ringing]

[man 2 on TV] ...New Orleans, the city
with the highest death rate in the country.

Streets usually vibrant with music
and tourists are empty tonight.

- [turns off ringing]
- Meanwhile, hospitals are filled

and rapidly
running out of supplies.

Fifteen years after
hurricane Katrina,

residents are hunkered down
once again in their homes.

Weathering a radically
different storm.

[woman 2 on TV] the FBI reported
that Chinese and Asian-Americans

are now experiencing
hate crimes

due to the coronavirus
global outbreak.

This trend also includes
minors as alleged perpetrators.

Just this week, police said teens
attacked a 51-year-old woman

on a New York City bus
hurling anti-Asian statements

against her and accusing her
of causing the coronavirus.

President Trump said
that this week and next

will probably be the toughest in
the fight against the coronavirus.

Last week he had
the coronavirus task force...

[continues indistinctly]

[grunts]

[cell phone ringing]

[TV continues indistinctly]

[cell phone continues ringing]

[sighs]

Hey, Hollywood.

[laughs] hey, prosper.

It's not Hollywood. It's Nova.

[prosper] oh. Hi, Nova. Uh...

Hollywood just called and
I thought he was calling...

How are you feeling, prosper?

And don't say fine.

None of us are fine.

I really wanna know
how you doing over there.

I'm a little worried
about you.

Yeah. Uh...

Uh, I'm sorry,

I was rude when you came by.
That, that ain't me.

You weren't rude.

And there's no need
to apologize.

Everybody's going through it.

Yeah.

But also everyone's different,
you know?

Going through it
in different ways.

Yeah, I suppose.

Well...

Can I talk to you
about this story

I'm working on for tru papers?

It's about the new movement to
help get the homeless off the street

and into these empty hotels
that are closed due to the virus.

I'd love to get a quote
from you from this article.

Get your opinion.

Oh, uh, sure.

[stammers] yeah. I'd be happy
to help if I can.

Thanks, prosper.

Hmm.

Somebody cleans up well.

Well, you must have forgot, I
make everything look good, baby.

[both chuckle]

That you do.

[inhales sharply]

That line up, though.

And here I go
thinking you was my friend.

I am your friend.
I'm just saying.

I'm just saying, seeing that a
brother can't get to a barber.

I think I did a pretty
fine job lining myself up.

[both laugh] -you
did. I'm just kidding.

You look fine.

You look good.

Thank you, I guess.

How you feeling
about your first day?

Better than I thought.

Glad to have a check
coming in.

You know, just counting
my blessings.

Mmm-hmm.

But tell me, what you got
going on over here?

Don't you worry about
what I got going on over here.

This is going to be awesome.

- I'll let you tell it.
- Mmm-hmm.

I'm proud of you.

I know.

- I'm gonna see you later.
- Mmm-hmm.

Keep it up.

I put your lunch
in the cooler.

- Thank you, baby.
- Mmm-hmm.

- Have a good day.
- You, too!
