Previously on Greenleaf...

They had to remove
your ovaries.

I can't have children?

You know the rules.

No contacting that boy.
Or have I not been clear?

-What do you know
about cryptocurrencies?
-Nothing.

-People are getting rich.
-Can we?

You can have the house.

I'll take care
of the I.R.S. bill.

But you have to leave
the church.

[Lady Mae] I am sorry
that you were scared,

but you know what?
Don't beat me up.

It won't fix it.
Fix you.

We're divorcing.

We will always be family,

and I'm still your Bishop.

I will continue on
as your First Lady

up through
A Day with Lady Mae,

where we will have
a very, very special guest,

my dear, dear friend
Maxine Patterson.

Is that Legal Defense Fund
of yours operational yet?

-Why?
-Woman in Collierville

just killed her husband
while he was sleeping.

She's saying
it was self-defense.

[Grace] So she killed
him with a hammer,

which sounds unattractive
if you're someone

who's thinking
about backing her,

but, apparently,
it's something

he'd used on her
a few times before.

If you say that this
is the case,

then this is the case.

[clears throat]

-Come here!
-Aah! No!

-Aah!
-[groans]

[Sophia] Mom?

Mom, what are you doing?

[laptop closes]

Nothing.

Was that about the lady
who killed her husband?

The one on the news?

Yeah, I'm gonna
meet with her tomorrow,

see about, I don't know,
if I can help her, or...

I don't know.

We can talk later.

No, no, no.
I'm gonna go to bed soon,

so... what do you need,
babe?

Can you talk
to Pastor Ramona?

About what?

Little Saints.

She's not taking no
for an answer, huh?

Nope, but I don't
want to do it.

I know
you're going through
a lot right now, baby.

I know it, I do.

I'm never gonna be
able to talk to them
the way I used to.

I don't even know
if I believe in God anymore.

Has your grandmom
heard you say that?

She's gonna have you up
at 6:00 a.m. with Zora

if you're not careful.

Will you talk to her or not?

[sighs]

Yeah, I'll talk to her.

Thank you.

[door closes]

[laptop closes]

-[theme music playing]
-¶ Amen ¶

¶ Amen ¶

¶ Amen ¶

[birds singing]

[quacking]

[knock on door]

[knocking]

Young lady.

Come on.

Hey, you.

It's my birthday.

I know.

-Happy birthday.
-Thank you.

Now, your parents are
coming over at 8:00
for breakfast,

and that will give us
less time with the text
than usual.

No, no, no!

[grumbling]

Mmm! No, no!

Rise.

[knock on door]

[door closes]

I, um, haven't seen
very much of you lately.

Seems like some days,
you don't even leave this room.

Well, I'm on vacation.

Your brother and Kerissa
are on their way over,

with Winkie.

For Zora's
little birthday thingy?

In the morning?

Well, your mother
has her on 7:00 p.m. lockdown.

This was the only time.

Wow. When is she
gonna get it together?

When are you?

When are you moving out?

It's hard to find a place
when every spare penny

is in the sights
of the Internal Revenue Service.

But if my presence is that
troubling to you, I'll just--

Daddy.

It's just that I, uh...

I miss you.

I'm gonna miss you, too.

[sighs]

See if you can make it down.

[door closes]

¶ Happy birthday dear Zora ¶

¶ Happy birthday to you ¶

[Bishop laughs]

-Oh! Mwah!
-Mwah!

Happy birthday,
sweetheart.

Thanks.

Super sweet, super sweet.

I get to eat cake
for breakfast?

If you put the word
coffee in front of it.

[laughter]

Don't get
used to it, hear?

We got a surprise
for you.

[gasps]

Is it my phone?

Your phone, yeah.
That's funny.

-Tickets to see Hamilton?
-Yes.

Okay, so there
are only two tickets,

so I thought we could
make a mommy and daughter date.

Mmm, yes! Yes!

Yes? [laughing]

When's the performance?

It's tomorrow night.

Oh, what a shame.

Why is that a shame?

Well, Zora's on punishment.

Well, it's
her 18th birthday.

Actions have consequences.

Well, aren't you
gonna say something?

Mom, you're being
a little tough.

A clear understanding

of how deeply your family
cares about your safety

is a thing
of great value, Jacob.

One whose worth
might outlast

even that of seeing
a Broadway musical.

I agree.

I cannot believe you.

Are you ready
for some cake, little man?

[laughing]

Sorry, baby.

I've got all the vendors
from last year
saving the date,

and The Templeton
is holding the ballroom

while we finalize
the schedule.

Perfect.

I'm sorry,
The Templeton?

What's the problem now?

After working with Maxine
all these years,
bigger is better.

I'm just worried
The Templeton's
not gonna do it.

That woman draws a crowd.

Do you know I was
thinking the same thing?

Can't we just do it here?

At the church?

I love that idea!

That's the Bishop's
Silver Jubilee.

Since when?

He told me
a few days ago.

He's gonna have
a whole celebration.

While we're having
Day with Lady Mae

at The Templeton
across town?

That's not gonna work.

I just meant that
we'd have to ask him.

I'm sure he'll say yes.

[door opens]

You wanted to see me?

Yes.

Oh, Karine, I will
talk to the Bishop about it.

I'm perfectly
willing to do that.

[Lady Mae] Karine,

let me caution you
about overvaluing
Bishop's opinion

in this time
of rapid evolution.

Understood.

My mistake.

What do you need?

Well, we are coordinating

with the Boys
and Girls Club of Memphis,

uh, some programs
for A Day with Lady Mae,

and their CEO is
coming over this morning.

Of course, I'm up to my ears
in all of this, and I--

Well, I can't meet today.

But you're
the Director of Outreach.

I have an appointment
at the County Jail

with Coralie Hunter.

Wait. With the murderess?

The accused.

Grace, I am working
my fingers to the bone

to try to breathe some new life
into this church

that your father
nearly vanquished himself

with all
of his negligence and pride.

Now, I want
A Day with Lady Mae

to be what everybody
is talking about

over the next six weeks

when they hear
the name Calvary!

And not some tawdry woman

who bludgeoned
her husband to death

in his sleep with a hammer!

Mama, the D.A.
is talking death penalty.

A life is at stake.

And defending the rights
of a victim of abuse,

that's as good
a calling card
for a church

as some
glorified pep rally.

-Pep rally.
-Yeah.

Is that what you
and your new best friend
Miss Cross

call the flagship event
for our church year?

Mama, I have my reasons
for working with Rochelle
on this project.

Mm-hmm.

Sadism and spite
both aimed directly at me.

Gosh, you understand me
perfectly.

And you don't
understand me at all.

[phone ringing]

Thompson Casket,
Funeral Services.

Percy, James.

How many times
do I have to tell you?

When you call,
use your cell phone.

You had me talkin'
all like white folks
for nothing.

[chuckles]

Uh, listen, I gotta
talk to you about--

Well, I'll have
to call you back.

Yeah, okay.

Miss Cross, I presume?

Percy, and he sends
his love.

And, uh...

Well, and your concern
today is?

Are you aware
of the latest indignities

our daughter has dragged
like a rat to our doorstep?

Which daughter
and, uh, which indignity?

Grace and this murderess
that she's decided to sponsor

like some child from Africa,
and with church money.

Uh, I heard.

Don't you think
it's bad enough

that everyone knows
about your troubles
with the tax man?

I mean, do you think
this is good P.R.
right now?

Mae.

Have a seat, please.

-What?
-Please.

[sighs]

Now, the Lord
has provided us a way

to pay what we owe
to the tax man,

at least
to get started, anyway.

I'm listening.

But, James, this is you.

-Uh, Mae?
-It's not me.

Your name
was on those returns.

Whatever you say,
you knew.

Well, how do you propose
to pay for it?

[sighs]

By making a substantial,
but short-term investment

in cryptocurrency.

Oh.

This is Rochelle's
genius at work.

Miss Cross assures me...

That strumpet waltzed
into our church, James,

with a bad reputation

and earned it
all over again.

Now, isn't it enough

that she has broken
our family in half?

Do you have to let her
take all of our money, too.

She's trying
to help us both.

Oh, you know what?

That preacher was right.

What preacher?

The one who wrote
Ecclesiastes.

"Better to be
a poor, wise youth

than an old, foolish king

who can no longer
heed advice."

Your blindness
in regards to this woman
is truly astonishing.

Mae, I will speak
to Grace and call her off

if you'll meet me
halfway in this.

Now, I've already put most
of my personal account into it.

What?

What we have
in our shared account

will get us
where we need to go.

Where you need to go.

Not in a billion years.

You made all these beds,

you lie in 'em.

[sighs]

Hi.

Thank you.

-That's it?
-Yes.

Just there
down the hallway.

Thank you.

Pastor Greenleaf?

Weston Price.

The D.A. who elected
not to try you for manslaughter.

Right. Thank you.

What brings you down here?

Coralie Hunter.

She goes to Calvary?

No. We just recently started
a Legal Defense Fund

for victims like her.

Coralie Hunter is no victim.

She murdered her husband
in his sleep

with a hammer

he had used
just hours earlier

to hang a picture
of his family.

But I assume you know
what he also did

with that hammer
in the past.

There isn't even a shred
of admissible evidence

that he ever abused her.

Well, I'm content
to let a judge decide

what's admissible
and inadmissible.

Excuse me?

Grace?

You know, you're
starting to sound like

you're the one without
a case here, Counselor.

Sometimes I hand a case
off to another D.A.

because I can't be objective.

That pond you're
about to step into,

it might be a lot deeper
than you think.

-Sorry, Pheobe.
I forgot my key.
-[phone ringing]

Whenever there's
a ring at the door,

I don't like to answer it
in case it's a policeman

standing there
with another summons.

[man in movie]
There'll be a policeman
at the door, all right.

Hello?

Yeah, Charity,
this is Percy Lee.

Percy, Daddy's friend?

[Percy] Yeah.
So how are you, angel?

Um, I'm fine, I guess.

Why are you calling me?

I got this memorial service
here tonight,

and the singer just called

and said he has the flu
that everybody's got.

So I thought maybe
you would step in

and offer
some musical comfort.

Hope it's all right to ask.

Yeah. Um, but,
Percy, I don't know.

I'm... I'm not sure
I can be of comfort right now.

This family's just lost
their great-great-grandmother,

and she's the heart and soul
of the family,

and they're all tore up,
and all I got

is some pre-recorded organ music
and Spotify.

So just one or two songs?

Am I gonna have to call
that daddy of yours

and get him to come up there
and rouse you to do all this?

[sighs]

Your mother is being
too strict.

My mother is being firm.
That's the point.

If you weren't being
so prideful about this,

you'd see the wisdom in it.

Isn't being strict
your whole brand?

Zora is 18.

If she decides to leave,
there's nothing me, you,

or you all-seeing,
all-knowing mother
can do about it!

My mother knows
what she's doing.

If your mother knew
what she was doing,

it wouldn't have taken me
nearly 20 years

to get you to straighten up
and fly right!

I'm gonna go talk to her!

Go ahead.

I wasn't asking
for permission!

Sorry!

My mistake!

[door closes]

[knocking]

-Aah!
-[groans]

[door opens]

Thank you.

Hi, Coralie.

You don't look so good.

I'm fine. It...

This, uh... ahem.

This room just got
a little smaller for a minute.

Do you know why I'm here?

You're from some church?

Yeah.

Mm.

We have a fund that provides
legal aid to, um,

people with cases like yours.

I don't believe in God,

if that's why you're here,
to save my soul?

It's not.

I'm here to help, Coralie.

'Cause I was very...

I was once very close to
sitting exactly where you are.

How?

[exhales]

Let's talk about you.

He had me pinned down.

He was choking me.

If he hadn't been
blind drunk,

I'd probably be
the one dead today.

-Aah!
-[groans]

And that's
when you decided...

I never decided anything.

I don't even remember
doing it.

Understood.

I'm glad
it happened, though.

For the kids' sake
if nothing else.

He abused the kids,
too, huh?

No, he just threatened
to all the time

to get me to...

you know, whatever
he wanted to do.

[guard] Time's up.

I'm gonna see you soon.

Will you really?

Yeah.

[organ playing]

¶ When you hear
Of my homegoin' ¶

¶ Don't you worry 'bout me ¶

¶ Oh Lord when you hear
Of my homegoin' ¶

¶ Don't you worry 'bout me ¶

¶ When you hear
Of my homegoin' ¶

¶ Don't you worry 'bout me ¶

¶ 'Cause I'm packed right now ¶

¶ Oh right now ¶

¶ And I'm on my way home ¶

¶ Ooh I'm packed right now ¶

¶ Oh right now ¶

¶ And I'm on my way home ¶

[crying]

If you could
just sign these.

I'd be happy to.

How you doin', Karine?

How's your day going?

Just busy
showing the ropes

to Maxine Patterson's
Miss Somethin'.

I'm sorry,
but that girl is slow.

-Is she?
-Mm-hmm.

I just keep praying
for patience.

Steele Security.

What's that for?

Uh, security
for Day with Lady Mae.

Security?

So Day with Lady Mae
is gonna be at Calvary
this year?

That big, huh?

[Lady Mae] It may
very well be, yes.

And when were you
gonna tell me about it?

Well, I just only got
the deposit back
from The Templeton,

and I didn't want to say
anything until I found--

You didn't want to say
anything, period, Mae.

Just admit it.

Well, since you're here,

you should know that,
with Maxine,

there will be
extra costs this year.

Well, then let Maxine
pay for it.

Why not have her rent
the FedEx Forum
while she's at it?

I mean,
if you're expecting
such a flood of people.

James, having
Maxine's presence is
a boon for the church.

Oh, please.

Better to have her here
where it really counts!

And what about
my Silver Jubilee?

Oh, you mean
the Silver Jubilee

that I was just informed
about this morning?

What about it?

Just don't you
forget our deal.

And what deal is that, dear?

After this Day
with Lady Mae,

you're gone.

[knock on door]

[Gloria]
Sorry. Lady Mae?

The committee is gathered
in the conference room.

Thank you, Gloria.

And as for me
and my future plans,

I will go where the Lord
leads me to go,

and I assume
you'll do the same.

All right.

There you go.

[clears throat]

What?

Don't "what" me.

You know I know when
something's going on with you.

So you want to talk
about it?

Probably shouldn't.

You know I'm married
to the one and only
Basie Skanks, right?

I know how to keep
a secret, Jacob,

so talk to me.

Come on.
Talk to me, Jacob.

Tell me what's going on.

You ever...

have somebody
that you know

treat you like the person
that you used to be

back in the day,

but you're not
that person anymore?

Are you kidding me?

You know
what I'm talking about?

Yeah, I know what
you're talking about.

Jacob, do you-- do you
think I've always been

this holy church lady
you see in front of you?

Like I didn't go out

every Saturday night,
tryin' to get my swerve on,

walkin' into church on Sunday,
eyes barely open,

prayin' other people
was thinkin'
I was really prayin'?

[both laugh]

And, you know, those people
would love to bring me down

and remind me of that
every day,

but I know
I've been forgiven, so...

Yes, and that's
just the thing.

I know Kerissa forgives me,
but she'll never forget,

and then she won't let me
forget, either.

And I'm sick of it.

Um...

bring it in.

Come on, bring it in.

It'll be okay.

It'll be all right.

Bishop?

Hey.

Just the woman
I want to see.

[laughs]

I can't say I mind
meeting in person,

but it does
have me curious.

What's my Bishop up to now?

Oh. You found more cash.

I found more cash.

Cash I wouldn't give
to anyone else.

But I trust you

and your expertise.

Thank you.

[clink]

Do you believe
her story?

What, that her husband
abused her?

-Yeah.
-Oh, yeah.
That part rings true,

and there's a string
of emergency room bills
and 911 calls. Yes.

So what's the problem?

This D.A., he's gonna
use my story against her.

Against me.

He said as much
right to my face.

So what?

That was self-defense, too.

I mean,
I know it was hellish,

but it was self-defense,
too, right?

[gurgling]
Call somebody.

[Grace]
I'm not calling anybody

till you tell me
where my daughter is.

[gasping]

Right?

Right.

[horn honks]

[horn honks]

All right, all right!

I'm goin'!
I'm goin', I'm goin'.

You want to put that down?

No, I, um...

I've had enough alcohol
for a minute,

so I'll stick
with my water.

Well, if that's
your pleasure.

What a day, though.

Yeah.

You know,
I thought I'd, um,

come here and sing
a few songs

and then skip on out.

Yeah. [chuckles]

I feel run over,

drained, being in the midst
of all that grief.

Yeah.

Well, you know,

people come here reeling

from the worst thing
that's happened to them,

and you soak it in.

Wow.

I don't know
how you do it.

I drink.

Lady Mae,
thank goodness

we caught you before
you left for the day.

The caterer needs
a deposit today,

or they won't commit.

Well, it's six weeks out,
they need our money?

They're the only ones
big enough to handle
the job,

and they're popular.

And Bishop's
already left for the day.

Oh. No problem.

I will just transfer money
from my personal account,

and then have the church
write me a check tomorrow.

Thank you so much.

One moment
and let me log in.

Wait.

Uh...

I something wrong?

Uh...

I don't know, but...

there's definitely
something amiss.

They need the check
by the close of business.

-Gloria!
-Yes.

Would the two of you
excuse me?

You talk to my mother?

Nope. I was just
trying to figure out

what it was
I wanted to say
when you walked in. Why?

Well...

I thought we should
both go over there tomorrow

and, uh, bring Zora home.

What made you change
your mind?

Prayed about it.

Thank you.

Sorry I got so dug in.

It's okay.

I am sorry that I

brought up
all that stuff

about you
not flying right.

That wasn't fair.

It's okay.

We all make mistakes.

Yes, we do.

It's true.

Mm.

You emptied
our shared account?

It'll be full
in two weeks' time.

More than full
if all goes well.

Says Miss Cross.

Says CNBC and everyone else.

Insider trading
is not illegal yet,

so the word
on the street is that
we'll be in for a win--

I want you out
of this house tonight.

I've already
made arrangements

to stay with Percy
for the short term.

I'll be leaving
in the morning.

You'll leave tonight.

And this time,
take it all, James.

Every last tie
and purple robe

and gaudy knick-knack.

I want you out of here.
I want you gone.

As you wish, dear.

-[knock on door]
-[crying]

[Grace]
You okay, baby?

[sobbing]

Sweetheart,
what are you doing?

-What are you doing?!
-Leave me alone!

No, stop it! Stop it!
Give me that!

Stop that, baby!

Stop it! What is
wrong with you, honey?

What's going on?

The Bible is all lies!

Your granddad
gave you this Bible.

[sobbing]

Sweetheart.

You feel what
you want to feel.

You be upset,

but this is not a lie.

He loves you.
He gave this to you.

Don't throw that away.

You will regret it.

I hate that I can't go back.

To what, honey?

Go back to what?

To be--
To before I got saved!

I just want to not know
God's real

so I can just live my life,

but I-- I can't forget

how it felt that day
at the church

when I went
down in the water.

I don't want to love
someone who treats me
this badly.

I just want to let God go.

I just want Him
to let me forget

and leave me alone.

Why won't He
just let me go?

[sobbing]

He's not gonna
let you go, honey.

I'm not gonna let you go.

[door lock buzzes]

Hey.

Never thought
I'd see you again.

Well, you should
have more faith.

I told you
that isn't my thing.

I know.

I'm here to bail you out.

Hey. Y'all ready?

Just about.

I don't like this one.

You didn't like
the last three, either, honey.

Come on! We gotta go.

You know he doesn't
want to wear anything

that Zora
doesn't handpick?

Mm-hmm.

That's my little GQ man.

His big sister
kept him fresh, though.

Yes, she did,
and she will again.

Mwah.

Hey, maybe we can start
some kind of a game night
or something.

Something fun.

Uh, yeah.

As long as it's not chess,

'cause you know that little
boy's got an unfair advantage.

Thanks for doing this.

No need to thank me.
It's all good.

We just have
so little time left with her

that I want her
to go out into the world

knowing that we love her

and that
we support her 100%.

She'll know.

I love you so much.

You, too.

Mmm.

[chuckles]

Are you having
a hard time deciding?

Uh, on what?

What
you're gonna wear?

[laughs]

Kind of.

What did I do now?

Oh, nothing.

No, I was
just thinking that
it might be a good idea

for you take
over the Little Saints

while Sophia's healing.

Yeah,
it's a no for me, dawg.

Come again?

I'm not good with kids.

Zora, I think
it's come to a point now

where taking care
of the souls of others

will give you
a deeper sense
of value of your own.

Do you not agree?

Well, I know how
it feels to be young.

Oh, you feel like you have
all the time in the world

to try things out,
make mistakes,

but, Zora, I can tell you
from experience

that the moment
to be your best self
is right now.

I don't want to do it,
Grandma.

And even if I did,
I can't.

Why not, Zora?

I'm 18 now.

I'm leaving.

And when, pray tell,
is this grand escape
of yours taking place?

[zipping suitcase]

In about ten minutes.

Zora?

Zora!
