Eleanor, I got something

for the baby and
you're gonna love it.

- Oh, where?
- It's right here.

[Laughing] It's a crib.

All it needs is a little sanding

and a little paint.

Look more like it need a little
gasoline and a little match.

Oh, come on, Eleanor.

Roc, I don't want
our baby sleeping

in someone else's garbage.

Hey! Wait a minute. What
kind of father do you think I am?

This isn't trash! A lady on
my roof was going to sell it.

But I talked her in to
giving it to me instead. Huh!

This is genuine yard sale

quality merchandise.

You mean it's garbage that
hasn't made it to the curb yet.

Oh, come on, Eleanor.

Roc, no perks for our baby now.

Hey, what's wrong with perks?

May I remind you,
our child started out

on this perk right here.

[Laughing]

[Moaning]

- Ooh, ooh, ooh.
- Hmm, you like that, huh?

Ooh! No the baby kicking.

Ooh!

Ooh.

- You know, sweetheart.
- Mmm?

It's gonna be kind
of strange you know..

With the kid in the
room when, uh..

You know we, we wanna
be you know romantic.

Don't worry about it, roc.

As tired as I'll be
after this bowling ball

rolls out of me, we'll
have to put romance

on hold for a while.

Whoa-whoa-whoa! Whoa! Whoa-whoa!

Wha-wha-wha-what
do you mean a while?

I mean, you mean
a while on a watch

or a while on a calendar?

Let's put it this way.

When the time come, you
gonna be good and ready.

[Eleanor] 'Hey, baby.'

hey, Eleanor, listen.

I've got the perfect
night planned.

We'll go to that sea food place.

If we hurry, we can
catch the free fried clams.

Then a movie at
the 99 cent cinema.

A whole night of fun, I won't
even have to break a five.

I don't know, roc.

I'm so tired these days.

Honey, let's just stay home.

That way you don't
even have to break a one.

[Roc chuckling]

Okay, baby.

Maybe you're too tired you know

to have a whole night out.

But we can still go
to the movies, right?

Oh, no movies, roc.

I'm so big, it's just not fun.

Last time when I went
to go get some popcorn..

That little boy pointed at
me and shouted, "free Willy!"

Oh!

Okay, Willy. Okay, okay, honey.

Look, no problem,
no problem, baby.

Look, I'll get some take
out, we'll rent a video

you know, I feel
like, uh, watching

something with a lot of action

like, uh, "die
hard 2," "aliens 3."

Well, I don't know, like, I
wanna see this video that I got.

It shows women
actually going through

the experience of giving birth.

[TV switches on]

You're sure, y-y-y-you're

you're sure that
isn't "aliens 3"?

Roc, you don't have
to watch this tape at all

if you don't want to.

Okay, okay, alright.

You know, chickens, chickens
have the right idea, you know.

They just-they just lay eggs.

Hey, pop, hey there. What
you-what you guys doing?

Ah, we're making
my special corn bread.

It's for the surprise
baby shower

Eleanor's friends
are giving her.

Now..

The most important ingredient

is a big spoon full of
pure mouth watering fat.

Oh, yeah.

Pure mouth watering,
artery clogging

heart stopping, 911 calling fat.

I'll have you know my great aunt

ate like this every day

and she lived to be 82.

Well, did you ever
stop to think that

maybe if she'd eaten less that,
she might've lived to be a 100?

Mmm, I doubt it,
she got hit by a bus

crossing the street
to get some bacon.

Ah, uh, Sheila would
you-would you mind

if I talked to pop privately
for a minute, please?

Mmm, sure.

And you know
what else will go well

with your corn
bread, Mr. Emerson?

What?

A nice healthy
pack of cigarettes.

You!

What's on your mind, son?

Ah, pop, something's
bothering me, you know

but I-I can't talk
about it with Eleanor

because it'll-it'll upset her.

- Well, what is it?
- Oh, it's about the baby.

Now don't get me
wrong, pop, you know

I really wanna be
a father, you know

but now that the baby's
almost here, you know I mean..

You know, papa.

I don't like what I'm feeling.

Well, what's the matter, son?

Well, I mean you know,
the baby isn't even born yet.

You know what, already
it's changing things.

Like, you like tonight

I wanted to go out
with Eleanor you know

and have a good
time, but she couldn't.

You know and it'll
probably get worse

you know, when the,
once the baby comes

and I just, I guess I'm
just afraid, you know

this kid is gonna change my
life a lot more than I thought.

Well, now I understand
where you're coming from.

Hell, having kids is both
a blessing and a curse.

[Chuckles] When you
and Joey were little

oh, there was fighting and
screaming and toys everywhere.

Ah, your mother and I
never got a moments peace.

Hey, pop, if I
didn't know better

I think you stayed
working on the railroad

all that time just to
get away from us.

No!

There was a neighbor
who was bothering me too.

Oh.

Oh, come on, pop.

I know, son. I'm
just playing with you.

You and Joey were a joy.

Ah! At least that's what
your mother said in her letters.

Hey, come on, pop,
will you be serious now?

And I really need you
to tell me, you know

how things are gonna be for me

you know after-after
this baby comes.

- You really wanna know?
- Yeah.

Son, let me explain
to you how life works.

You meet a girl

you fall in love and
you get married.

Then the babies start coming.

She's busy taking care of them

and you working your
tail off supporting them.

Meanwhile, you're
getting older, you're slower.

You're shorter and you
always want a sweater.

And finally the kids leave home

and you're alone again
with the woman you love.

But you're too broken
down to do anything about it.

All you can do is... Sit
around and talk about

whether or not you should
buy one of those beds

that helps you sit up.

That's it?

- You want more?
- No, no, no, no, no, pop.

Hey, hey, hey.

What's all this for?

Joey, Eleanor's baby shower

is going on down at Marie's.

So, I've got the house
all to myself for poker.

You know, Joey, I've been so
busy getting ready for the baby

it's nice to get away
from it for a night.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

I like getting away from
my babies for a night.

Well, count me in.

So, uh..

You wanna be in this game, huh?

Yeah.

Well, I want you to
get a job and move out.

So it looks like neither one of
us is gonna get what he wants.

Come on, roc. Why..
How come I can't play?

Because you're broken, I'm
not lending you the money.

I won't need your money. I got
something better than money.

Look at this.

"Joey Emerson,
certified I owe you."

Well, you know something,
Joey, you can forget that.

I still have some of
those written in crayon.

Now if you wanna play with us,
you're gonna need real money.

Roc, real money comes
from the government

which has a debt
of four trillion.

Now, these "I owe
you's" comes from me

who owes you
what like $200, right?

You get your
money faster from me

than the Japanese will
get theirs from Washington.

[Doorbell rings]

So you picked up a newspaper.

Mm-hmm, you're
still not playing.

Come on, man. This ain't right.

- How's...
- Hey, hey, hey! How you doing?

[Indistinct chatter]

Alright, let's get started.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Come on. Look, look.

Why don't-why don't
you guys just pull out

all your money right
now and give it to me

and save yourselves the
pain of losing it bit by bit.

Roc, roc, roc,
tonight's the night

your lucky streak
comes to an end.

Oh, yeah, I heard
that, I heard that.

Come on, over here, let's
separate the men from the boys.

He's playing? No,
no, no, no, no. No, no..

Hey, no, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

I don't know how he
got in that chair, I swear.

But I'll get him
up. Get up, Joey.

- Get up.
- What's the matter with 'em?

My money's not
good enough for y'all?

You never have any. You so
broke there's a echo in your pocket.

Joey. Why don't you
just be reasonable?

You don't want us
to throw you out?

No, no, no, it's okay.

I enjoy throwing him out.

- Get out, Joey.
- Right, alright, alright, fine.

I'm not gonna play with y'all. I
got friends of my own, you know.

Hey, hey, pop.

Let's get down to business.

- We got you five card draw.
- Okay.

Deuces while take the toll.

Okay, you know, look
after weeks of baby talk

I mean, it's good to hear
the sound of cards shuffling

and beer cans popping over.

[Laughing]

Hey, roc, so tell me.

After your baby
is born, you're still

going to play poker with us?

Of course, I am, Carlos.

Nothing's gonna change.

[Laughing]

Isn't that what the
Indians said around 1492?

Hey, wait, now you
guys can't tell me

I'm never gonna have
time to myself now.

Oh, come on, Carlos.
You've-you've got four kids.

You're here playing poker.

Hey, roc, it's not
that easy, bro.

You know that every
time I come home late

from playing poker with you guys

I gotta come up with a
story about where I was.

Which reminds me, I
need one for tonight.

Why don't you just tell her,
tell her you had to work late.

Sly, I teach the first grade.

At that level there aren't
a lot of night classes.

Wait, wait a minute,
you're saying your wife

won't let you play
poker anymore?

No, no, no, roc, see, look.

Once you have kids

your wife wants
you at home with her.

I'm talking about changing
diapers, washing bottles

getting up in the
middle of the night.

You know sharing in
the joys of parenthood.

I know what y'all are doing see.

[Laughing] Damn, you're
scared of losing, right?

So you're trying to get
my mind off the game.

- No! No-no-no-no.
- Yeah.

But it's not gonna work.
It's not gonna work now.

Because I'm
feeling lucky tonight.

- Oh, no.
- This is my night.

This is my night,
you watch. Hey!

Hey, roc. Marie's kid got sick.

So we have to move Eleanor's
baby shower over here.

Oh, Norma, shower? We
were playing poker here.

Well good, they can help
me put up the decorations.

- Oh, no, no, no, no.
- Look, look, look.

We don't have a lot of time.

Eleanor would be here real soon.

But I'm feeling lucky tonight.

Sorry, guys, need
to use this table.

- Oh wow, hold on!
- Wait a minute.

We're in the middle of a hand..

Yeah, you-you just can't,
you can't come in here

messing up a game.
I have four aces.

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

I'm out.

Wha-what do you
mean we can't play here?

Tonight's my poker night.

Couldn't you have
the shower tomorrow?

Roc, half the women
in the neighborhood

are on their way over here.

Now if you wanna tell them no

just put your good suit on now

so we don't have to
struggle getting you into it

after they kill you.

I was looking forward to
this poker game all week.

Roc..

You can play poker anytime.

But you're only gonna
have this baby once.

I know that.

Can't you play poker
on the kitchen table?

No, no, no, actually we need

that kitchen table
for our party food.

Well, then where are we
supposed to play poker?

Well, you can use this table.

Just wipe it off and put the
ribbon back on when you're done.

Damn, roc.

Last time I sat at
a table this small

it was Thanksgiving 1965.

Well, well, well, well.

Look at the big macho
men playing poker

on a little tiny baby table.

[Laughing]

Look like a
kindergarten casino, eh?

Yeah, shut up, Joey.

Oh, sounds like
some little mister's

ready for the naptime.

Yeah, I thought you were gone.

Well, I was but I heard
about the shower messing up

your poker game,
I thought to myself

"man, that's terrible, man,
roc's game is messed up.

"He's in a nasty mood.

And I'm not there to see it."

Yeah, now that you've seen
it, why don't you get out?

You know, roc, maybe
you wouldn't be so grumpy

if you could stretch
your legs out a little bit.

Y-y-y-y-you keep playing
with me here Joey, alright.

Mm, mmm. Hey, roc. Pop's
cornbread is delicious, man.

- You gotta try a little.
- Well, I don't want it.

No try. It's the best he ever
made, man. Here, here, try it.

Get that cornbread
out of your mouth.

I didn't make that for you.

I tried to stop him, pop,
he overpowered me.

Joey, I'm gonna kill you.

Roc.

I got these pamphlets
from school.

And we're learning that
heart disease is a big

problem among African-Americans.

And blacks are far less
likely than whites to receive

the most advanced
medical procedures.

But we can reduce our risk

if we stay away
from saturated fats.

You know like the
kind you find in, uh

fried foods, fatty
meats, corn bread.

What's wrong?

Ah, I forgot the butter.

Quite, everybody,
Eleanor's coming.

Tellin' you I would be so happy
when Ethan is that new nurse...

[all] Surprise!

[Screaming]

Either somebody just got hit
by a bus or my wife is home.

I am sitting at a kid's table
listening to people screaming

not making much money.

[Chuckles] This is
just like teaching.

- Roc.
- H-Hey.

Baby, they threw me a shower.

[Laughing] Yeah,
I heard, I heard.

Oh, honey, your poker
game is tonight, I'm sorry.

Oh, sweetheart,
don't worry about that.

I can play poker anytime.

But we're only gonna
have this baby once.

That's good, roc.

I hardly saw
Eleanor's lips move.

Come on in here, Eleanor.

We got food and
presents waiting for you.

Oh, you are so sweet
to throw me this party.

Almost makes being 30
pounds overweight worthwhile.

Alright, Ernie, let's
go, last hands to you.

Now how many you want?

Ah, give me two.

[Joey clearing throat]

What?

Never draw to inside hmm

when you got hmm.

Ohh, so you saying that
I should try for a mmm.

- Mm-hmm.
- Give me three.

There you go.

Well, you could always bluff.

Joey, get the hmm out my face.

- Roc.
- Huh?

Baby, you gotta come
see this one present I got.

It's really for the both of us.

Okay, okay,
i-I'll-I'll be right back.

- I-I'll take you seat.
- No, you won't.

See, roc.

Jackie king gave
us a daddy papoose.

[Laughing] That's nice.

Oh, yeah, now, roc we
can take the baby with us

everywhere we go together.

Everywhere we
go together. Ha-ha.

Well that, that's great
Eleanor. Thanks, Jackie.

You know, if I'd carried
baby roc around in

one of those things I'd
have broken my back.

Daddy!

Well, well, Eleanor i'm-i'ma
get back to my game.

Oh, okay, baby.

[Laughing] Okay.

So what was the big
surprise you had to see?

Oh..

Jackie king gave us a papoose.

Jackie king!

Wait a minute, you
mean, she's so fine

she'd make you jump off the bus

run back a block,
catch your breath

and go "hey, Jackie king!"

All I know there is a woman
here named Jackie king.

I wished I had
brought my Cologne.

[Laughing] What am I
worried about, I'm me!

Yeah, that's what I'm
counting on, don't ever change.

No.

Well..

I guess trying to play
poker on a little table..

Was a bad idea anyway, huh?

Roc, I guess there's nothing
else to do but going to party.

Yup, well at least
they got food in there.

- You coming, roc?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I-i-i-I'll be in in a minute.

[Indistinct chatter]

[Female #1] 'Oh,
right there. Awww!'

[Indistinct chatter]

[Blowing]

Roc.

Oh, sorry, Eleanor. I
didn't mean to wake you.

Oh, you really didn't wake
me. I was only half asleep.

[Clear throat] I was worried
about you, roc. Where'd you go?

Oh you know, you know, I was
just walking around you know.

What's wrong, roc?

Nothing, nothing, I just..

Had some thinking
to do, that's all.

Roc, you better tell me now.

I'm not gonna be
this week come 4 A.M.

Oh, come on, Eleanor,
it's-it's really no big deal, baby.

Just-just go back to bed,
I-I don't want to upset you.

Roc Emerson, now you
tell me what this is about.

Now you're scaring me.

I mean, it's just that,
um, you know, Eleanor.

I love our life together.

And that's a bad
thing, because...

Wha-what-what I'm
saying is you know, I mean

i-i, we've got a good
thing going here, you know

and I've got a wife
who is my best friend.

I've got my family and
my friends, you know.

But now, you know there's
this baby coming you know

and it's changing
everything you know.

I mean, I mean I want this
kid, you know, I mean, I really do

you know, but I don't
wanna lose our thing either.

[Sighs] Man, I hate
saying things like this

this you know what I mean.

'Uh, because I-I know i'm
upsetting you, you know.'

because I know..

I know for you having
this baby is nothing but joy.

Nothing but joy?

Roc..

I am losing sleep.

I walk like a duck.

Every time I pull out
a pair of my old jeans

I swear I hear 'em
laughing at me.

I know once the baby's born

I'm never gonna have
a minute to myself.

And this may come
as a shock, roc

but I kinda like being
alone with you too.

Wait a minute, you mean,
you mean, you're saying

you're just as scared about
having this baby as I am.

Hell yeah.

Oh, Eleanor, you
don't know how happy

I-I am to hear you say that.

Oh, man, god,
what are we saying.

I guess we're saying,
we're human, roc.

Well, I mean.. But does..

Do good parents
say things like that?

Well, I think the bad
parents are the ones

that keep these things
all bottled up inside

and they take it
out on their kids.

I think the way to
being good parents

is to just stay honest and keep
talking to each other like this.

Oh, yeah, okay.

Because you know, I
got-i got some things

you know going on there
through my mind, you know.

I mean, you know
what if this kid

turns out to be, you know,
pain in the butt you know.

What if it turns out to
be, you know, like Joey?

Roc, you're gonna
love him no matter what.

[Chuckling] Hmm, yeah I know.

- And you know what?
- Hmm?

You're going to
be a great mother.

And our baby is gonna have

the greatest
father in the world.

- Mmm-hmm.
- Mm-hmm

hey, you know I
never got the chance

to look at all those baby gifts.

Why don't we go downstairs
and you can show 'em to me, huh?

No, no, no. I got a better idea.

I wanna show you
this pamphlet I got.

- A pamphlet?
- Yeah.

From the doctor's office.

It shows all the different ways

a person in my
condition can get..

You know romantic.

Well, you know me, baby.

I like to figure
things out for myself.

Uh, now this is how poker
supposed to be played.

Plenty of elbow room.

Yeah, and not a woman in sight.

I know what you mean,
but one good thing

came out of that baby shower.

I got a chance to
meet Jackie king.

I think we might get a
little something going.

Yeah, you might be right, slys.

You're all she talked about
over breakfast this morning.

Watch it Joey, you
know, you're lucky

we let you back in the game.

I must be lucky 'cause
I'm about to take everything

you got except the
lint out of your pockets.

Two kings and a lovely
wife. Now if you'll excuse..

Wait a minute, wait a
minute, roc-roc I won

that money fair and
square, what are you doing?

No, you won these
fair and square.
