All language subtitles for Queen Sugar - 07x05 - With a Kind of.GOSSIP.English.C.orig.Addic7ed.com

Previously on Queen Sugar...

A Hollywood producer wants
to turn my book into a movie.

I need everyone in my family to approve.

This is a once in a lifetime offer.
Ask them.

You want to know what sells? It's hot.

Your dad's an NBA star.

Holy shit,
that's what I'm talking about.

I'm with social services.

It's my mom. The ICE got her.

They need us.

I'd like to request legal guardians.

The boys can stay with you while
you complete your application.

- He looks a lot like chase.
- No.

- You and chase did have a moment.
- I was unconscious.

Oh, okay, let's see if I can...

- Come on.
- Oh, stop.

- All the more reason.
- Put the card down.

Put it down.

You sure?
Because I'm planning to win it.

Nova, did we wake you, honey?

Baby girl, come over here
and help your papa.

- The others coming?
- They'll be by later.

Ralph would be so happy to see you.

We can't stay long.
Nobody cut the cane this season.

Don't go.

I can't believe you're here.
I've missed you so much.

We missed you too.

You know what to do.

You always have.

Mama.

- Oh, my baby.
- Mama.

Oh, shoot.

_

Hey.

Uh-huh. Mmm. No, absolutely not.

Come on, come on.

Shit, okay.

Mmm mmm.

Jeez.

About time that insurance money came in.

Don't worry, we got it.

Charley, I said I got it.
Just focus on your speech.

All right, love you, too.

What did she say?

She's on her campaign bus right now.

Asked if we can meet with the
insurance adjuster at the mill.

Can't imagine campaigning,
trying to deal with the mill too.

- I know.
- It's crazy.

I was just thinking about
her and the mill the other day.

It's been almost two years
since the fire,

And I don't know how people are
supposed to rebuild after tragedy

when these companies
purposefully drag their feet.

Took me years...

It really does.

How bad is it?

That's with the csa earnings, too?

It's everything. I mean, without...
land and her crops

we're deep in the red again.

Co-op can't lose no more land.

That'll be it.

Yeah, I mean,
that's what I was thinking too

with Charley,

We should see if

she'd be willing to put the mill
into the co-op.

I mean, she's been talking
about selling, divesting.

The worst she could do is say no.

I mean, if she did
it would be at a loss.

She's already at a loss,

and at least this way she'll be
giving back to the community,

which was her original intention.

- Who's going to take care of it?
- We could.

Babe, it's not even operational.

- How are we gonna take care of it?
- Exactly,

we don't have to operate it.

We just hold it on the books.

The land is still worth something.

A lot, in fact.

And the future potential
is always there.

All right, that's a good idea.

Mmm-hmm.

Shit.

Hey.

Is that how you answer the phone now?

You were supposed to be here
an hour ago.

Leaving me alone to prep
for this family gathering.

You forgot, didn't you?

No, I didn't forget. I'm...

I'm walking out the door now.

Oh, hey, and don't forget to
pick up the fried catfish and...

And get the extra sauce.
It's... and Darla's favorite.

- Micah, are you listening?
- Yeah.

I got it. I'll see you soon.

Ah, suspect.

Does your mommy and daddy leave
you with a dirty diaper every time?

Every time?

Every time right there?

Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh, no running please.

Oh, no, not you too.

Seriously?

Baby, I'm sorry,
we just got these bolt parts.

Got to get started on this carburetor.

Trying to have that sucker
up and running

by the end of the summer.

You go wash your hands.

Hollywood, can I see you?

You're in trouble.

Just go wash your hands.

Let me talk to your uncle
for a second, okay?

Here. There you go.

What's wrong?

Hollywood,
don't get too attached to those boys.

Their father could return any day now.

I know, baby, and I hope you're right,
god knows I do.

But this whole system is broken.

Ain't no telling when Ignacio
don't come back home.

We need to be ready for that, too.

Hey, look, babe, you know we've
been talking about fostering, right?

Who knows? Maybe this is our chance.

Maybe.

No matter how you slice it,
this is cruel,

- especially to those boys.
- You preaching to the choir, baby.

- Mr. Hollywood?
- Yes?

Oh. Are we gonna fix the carburetor?

Son, what do you know
about a carburetor?

It makes the engine go...

Well, you gonna learn today.

- Babe, I have to go make the...
- Come on.

We have to go make the engine go vroom,
baby.

We got to go make the engine go vroom,
right? Let's go.

- It's a big dream.
- Mmm-hmm, and she did it.

She really did.

That's when you know you different.

Something like this is one
of the big things you did.

It runs in the family.

You're all like that though.

You definitely are.

It's true, you know? Your father...

He had a vision for his farm
and his family,

and he held it in his heart.

He never let it go.

And Nova, she stands up
for what she believes in,

and she fights for it even when
everyone else disappears with her.

- Micah's a go-getter.
- Hmm.

Even at his young age.

You know, with his photography
and his activism.

Vi is a marvel.

What she's endured, what she's built,

and you're right up there with them,

protecting the land, pushing the legacy.

Mmm, you've made some mistakes but...

Your whole family has.

But you do it all with love and vision.

Each of you.

You know, I see you, too.

That's right.
You're smart, brave, thoughtful.

I don't know where you got
that mind from, but I see you.

I'm grateful

that someone like you see me,

little old me.

Hmm.

Hey.

- Hi.
- I was up early,

helping at the farmer's market,

and I thought you might
like these for your party.

Oh, okay, You
didn't need to do that, but thank you.

I haven't spoken to Vince since he left.

He usually checks in.

Well, you and Vince just ended
a 20 year relationship.

There's nothing wrong
with not being okay about it.

It was my idea.

And now it's really sinking in.

I have been spinning out all night.

Did I make the right choice?
I'm second guessing everything.

You did what you needed to do for you,

and that's not easy.

What if you came to stay
with me for a little while?

I can use the company
while Dominic's away,

and maybe a new environment,
a friend to talk to

might, you know, help a little?

Wow, that is beyond generous. Thank you.

Girl, we've been friends
for almost three decades.

We may have had
some downtime in between,

but now it's a perfect time
to really catch up.

And I'm not being generous,
I'm being greedy.

Yes, I would.
I'd love to stay here for a bit.

I mean, I've been feeling like
a third wheel at home.

- Ah.
- I mean, don't get me wrong,

I am really happy for them,

but daddy and Sandy need their own...

Girl, they need their own space.

Yeah.

Well, you won't be a third wheel here.

Just me and you, hmm? Come here.

- Thank you, Nova.
- Any time.

I thought you said it
was too early for a fiesta.

Well, I was wrong. I like that song.

Oh, my goodness,
what on earth did you put in there?

Ah.

Ooh, uh, that's delicious. Ooh!

That is really... You have a gift, baby.

Talking about babies.

That's Aunt Vi.

Hello, baby.

Dante, food's ready.

Dante, what did I tell you
about running?

Sorry.

Boys, um, why don't you go to
your room for a minute, all right?

Now.

Oh! Oh, no, hey, it's okay,
all right, it's all right.

Just a little grown folk business.

All right, come on, let's go.

So what on earth's going on?

I'm sorry I have to tell you this,
but it happens.

What happens?

Your application to foster the
Avila boys has been denied.

Denied why?

We ran background checks.

It's challenging,
because the law is black and white,

but real life isn't.

But clearly you have a
wonderful home for those boys.

But by law, foster children
can't live with an ex-felon.

Imma take her to sleep, all right?

Come on. Come on, come on. It's okay.

It's okay, come on.

The boys need to pack
and we'll get them relocated

to another home as soon as possible.

Their father asked us
to watch after them.

I see you have a good home here.

There's just no way
to get around the law.

I already paid for my past.

Them boys' innocent.

They shouldn't have to pay for it too.

They're safe here.

You're gonna take all of that away

because of one mistake
that happened years ago.

There has to be something
that we can do, right?

Once you're flagged an unfit home,
it's hard to reverse it.

My hands are tied.

What if I go?

We've been talking about it.

Just need some time to sort it out.

I'm sorry, I don't make the rules.

Ralph Angel has done
so much for this community.

He runs a successful co-op.

He's a good man.

He's a great father, great husband.

When he got out,
the first thing he did was

create a reentry program to
help other people get on their feet

and you are telling me
that none of that matters.

Look, I'll hold the paperwork
until Monday, but that's it.

If you can find a new place by then,
maybe.

They were so vivid, like,
they were sitting right here.

Oh, that's a good sign, right? For this?

I've got the ascended on my side,

now I just have to convince the living.

I really want this to work out.

I just can't believe they're
making a movie about us.

Like, that is very cool.

Right, but I gotta do it right this
time, you know, uh, no surprises.

Oh, yeah, but, you know,
if you didn't have the guts

to do it, like, your book may
not have seen the light of day.

That's one way of spinning it.

Yeah, I've just been thinking
a lot about my next NFT.

Like, you know, I wanna
follow the trends,

but I also wanna follow my gut.

Well, let's see it.

Um, okay. Okay.

Um, this piece is about
reclaiming a public moment

and making it mine.

It's wild, right?

And look at the bids,
it's up to 100k already.

Has your mom seen this?

Uh, no.

- Just you.
- Take that down.

That's not your moment to sell.

I was there too.

How's this any different from
what you wrote in your book?

You're auctioning off
your parents' worst day

in the middle of your mom's campaign,
it's different.

Knock, knock.

- Hey.
- Hey, baby.

Hey.

Okay, uh, boys, you can put
those pies down in the kitchen.

And Hollywood, Nova set up
a movie upstairs for the boys.

Come on, let's go upstairs.

Okay, I know that we're early,
but I wanted the inside scoop.

So what's this big news?
Is there a bun in the oven?

You know, or a ring on that finger?

Mmm, neither, but I wanted to
tell you all together. Where's ra?

They'll be here.
I'll tell you more later.

Okay.

Uh, hello?

Hey.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm just, um...

Can you excuse me for a moment?

I don't know.

Micah, what's up?

Yo, um, I'm locked out of the site,
I need you to delete that NFT.

No can do, brother, once there's a bid,
I can't take it down.

No, I made a mistake, man,

there's
gotta be a way to take it down, please.

Micah, I take it down now,
it makes us all look bad.

You'll be put back on ice,
is that what you want?

I don't care, just delete it.

All right, chill,
I'll see what I can do.

- Oh.
- Hey.

She's asleep, what's up?

I'm about to take her to the room.

Okay, straight back there. Hey, people.

- There, come on in.
- Oh, boy, smells like Aunt Vi.

Hi.

Hey, baby.

Um, one second,
I think this is preschool.

- Hello.
- Hi, darling.

Our mutual friend Jordan
saw you in DC last week

and I had to reach out
and say hello myself.

It's Chase, Chase Livestone.

Uh, you quiet now.

But you had a lot to say to Jordan.

Go to hell.

Telling her a lot of bullshit about me,

like what we did wasn't consensual.

I'm a family man.
I'm running for office.

Stop this shit right now, you hear me?

Do not call here ever again.

Okay?

This isn't over.

How's that apartment hunt going?

Been tough, I went to six places

and everybody keep asking
for a background check.

I thought they banned the box.

For work applications, not with housing.

Well, don't let that box hold you down.
Own it.

Lead with honesty,
people appreciate that.

And some might even be okay with it.

Yes, sir.

Knock, knock, knock.

- Yeah, you stuffed, aren't you?
- Who you telling?

Um, hey...

Hey, y'all, I, uh...

I wanna, um, talk
to you about something.

Well, just spit it out,
baby, this hype is kicking in.

Now you done fed us good,
what you gonna do?

Um, all right, I mean, as you all know,

I've made some mistakes in
the past that have hurt you all.

I've learned from that and I pledged
to never go down that path again.

Um...

A path that has me thinking
about what I want,

what I think is right,
without understanding

and hearing and
acknowledging your feelings.

Or getting your blessing.

Well, good, Nova.

Go on, baby, just get it out.

Um, I've been approached to adapt
blessings and blood into a movie.

A movie?

Like, movie, movie?

But unless the whole family
gives their blessing, it stops here.

Oh, Nova.

Baby, that book caused a
whole lot of pain for all of us.

I know, I'm sorry.

But, baby, it also aired
a lot of dark secrets

that needed light
in order for us to heal.

Um, guess who wants to play you,
Aunt Vi.

Oprah.

- Wait, the Oprah?
- Really? Oh, my god.

It's gotta be Tracy Morgan to play Wood

and Lakeith Stanfield to play you, yeah?

Or how about Idris Elba?

Yes, baby.

Hold on one second, um,
this is how much they want

to buy it for and we can split
the money between us evenly.

It's our story.

Damn, could buy a new house with this.

Oh, lord, have mercy.

- And I would share mine with the co-op.
- No.

Ooh, you know what? I would too.

Oprah is perfect, Pam Grier...

Nova.

What you thinking about?
Pam grier to play you?

I said no.

I said no.

I said no!

Nova, you go.

Okay.

Darla?

- Darla.
- No, god, leave me alone.

I didn't mean to upset you.

- I'm sorry.
- Don't you dare make this about you!

You ruined my life
and now you want forgiveness.

I relapsed because of you and that book.

Did you really think I'd be okay
with a movie? Are you that selfish?

I won't do it without your permission.

Ralph Angel and I keep
trying to let the past go

and you keep bringing it back.

Do you really think that I wanna watch

my assault with actors in costumes?

Do you think that I want that out there?

For Blue and Tru to see

any more than you've already exposed it?

All this shit you stirred,

do you think I want that
rewound and streamed

on people's TV for years, Nova?

Hollywood finding me unconscious,

telling Ralph Angel about Blue?

Which almost killed me.

You think these are great scenes, Nova?

Are you crazy?

Are you out of your mind?

I've seen the past.

I've seen the past,
I've seen the past, okay?

I just need the past
to stay in the past.

It will, I promise.

I just want it to stop.

I just want it to stop.

I asked you to take it down.

Take it down?
I said I could see what I could do.

Oh, did you not see how crazy it got?

The bids were wild,
there's no way I could bury those.

I don't care.

You made the single largest
sale in our company's history.

Congrats, man, look.

Sportscenter, CNN, fox, Twitter.

You did it, Micah,
you put us on the map.

My parents are gonna kill me.

That image was already out there.

Someone else was cashing in on
your family's pain and you took it back.

Okay? Own it.

Look, look, look, look, look,
I need you to buckle in,

because we hooked a whale, bro.

Wants to commission more of your work.

For real?

Yes, he wants to fly us on his jet,
private, bro.

Ivory, come in,
this is the guy, Micah West.

The largest sale
in the company's history.

Give it up for him, thank you, come on!
Let's go!

Talk to Darla yet?

No.

I'm giving her space tonight.

You know, if Ralph Angel doesn't
find a place, we can't force them out.

Especially now,
with Tru and Darla feeling so hurt.

What about the boys, though?

What if they get split up?
Different houses.

- We made a promise to Ignacio.
- I know.

We just have to keep an eye on them.

Make sure belinda finds
them a really good home.

They need us, vi.

And angel and Darla are our family.

But now the boys are our family too,
I don't know what to do.

Check it, what if I could find
a place for ra and Darla to rent

and put it in my name?

- We could handle their security deposit.
- Yeah.

We could keep the boys.
Oh, that's good, Hollywood.

You are just good.

Thank you.

It's nice.

It is nice.

There's something really warm about it.

Washer and drier's out back.

The ac rattles when it's real hot,
but it works.

We really appreciate you showing
us this place at the last minute.

No trouble, I live right next door.

They got a little
patch out front for Tru.

Oh, yeah?

- Let me see.
- Check it out.

Oh, and so much sunlight.

Y'all looking for long-term
or month-to-month?

We can promise you a year

if, um, if we can move in
as soon as possible.

Miss Olivia...

I just wanna be real with you.

My record...

My record ain't clean.

But I live a clean life now.

My wife.

- Our new baby girl.
- Mmm.

Our son goes
to one of the top schools in DC.

In the country, really.

But, I'm a farmer by trade.

Been working on a fish boat.

It's a long story.

I guess what I'm trying to say is...

...we're good people,

and we'd treat this place like our own.

My husband did time too.

And what's passed is the past,

as long as we learn from it and grow.

All I need to see is honest eyes

and hardworking hands.

I can see you have both.

And you got this queen, too.

Thank you.

So you're doing just fine.

Thank you, ma'am. You won't regret it.

Let's get this paperwork started.

Thanks again.

I don't wanna do this.

Shh.

It's okay.

You know, if you're planning
the great escape,

you might wanna do it at night.

And where the hell
y'all think y'all going?

Somewhere we can stay together.

- I don't wanna go.
- You don't have to go.

You got me and Violet right here.

And who's gonna help me
fix that boat if y'all run away?

What about Ralph Angel?

Ralph Angel's got his own place now.

And he needs us to help him move.

So go back, put your stuff in there.

I need y'all.

Thank you.

Joaquin...

When I make a promise, I don't break it.

Anything you need,

just let me know.

Please tell me you're kidding.

I've been getting calls
about this project all day.

With the campaign and everything,

Charley hasn't gotten back to me, but...

...another family member is a firm no,

so I just can't.

Okay, well, we're willing
to cut characters.

We can move story around.

As long as the tentpoles stay,
the family and the farm...

as much as I would like this to happen,

I'm sorry.

I'm gonna let you think about it.

Okay? Whoever it is
can just not be in the movie.

Well, no, but all the stories
are connected.

Just let the filmmakers
work their magic...

...and let them pay you handsomely.

I'll delay things on my end.

You just think about it.

Okay?

We'll talk again soon.

Girl. Girl!

Hey, hey, hey!

New Orleans isn't ready for us.

Come on in, girl.

Thank you so much for letting me stay.

- I need this girl time.
- Yeah.

And, you know...

Like I said, daddy and Sandy
need their space.

I'm sorry, um...

Ever since Vince left,
I don't know what I'm doing.

I don't know where I'm going. I don't...

You're gonna settle in and
make yourself completely at home

for as long as you want.

You're gonna walk around
in your pjs as you please.

Get something from the fridge
whenever you want.

Come and go as you need.

But first, you need to find
something cute to wear,

'cause we're going out for drinks.

- Oh.
- Lord knows I need one.

There we go. Hit that, Dante.

Do y'all know what the most
important part of the engine is?

Mmm...

Spark plugs?

The fuel injector?

Well, you're both right.

See, the engine is a symphony
of moving parts,

and each piece has to be
well-oiled, well-loved,

in order for it to work.

So, why is it called true north?

Well, it's named
after Ralph Angel's mama,

and it's also a reminder to
keep your direction in life

on a center, a soul,
right where the heart is.

You know, you keep sight of that...

...everything will be good,

no matter if the waters get rough

or what life throws at you.

You find your direction,
and you'll stick with it.

Just like your parents.

Y'all their true north.

They risked everything
for the both of you,

and now, they're
risking everything again

to get back to you.

All right, Dante,
pass me that carburetor.

Let me show you something.

I was talking to his sweet,
frozen face on my phone.

It ain't right.

When's he come home?

Next week. Counting down the days.

That's right.

That hot trombonist keeps eyeing us.

Look right now. Look right...

Okay. , I know you still
possess some of them majorette moves.

You still got it.

- Come on.
- Okay, wait.

Let's see if I can still
move these old bones.

Ready on the one,
it's five, six, seven, eight.

It's one, hit two,
put some stink on it, pop, again.

One, hit two, put some stink on it, pop.

- Oh, you're...
- I know, right, right?

Girl, he's still looking.

I dare you to go home with him.

What? Nova, you know
I am not that kind of girl.

And he looks like he's wearing
way too much Cologne.

Oh, you can scrub that off.

- Take a shot with him.
- I'm...

- What?
- Girl, I wouldn't even know what to do.

Oh, come on.

It has been a long, long time.

You know what I mean?

And besides, me and Vince...

I mean, you know.

Wait.

Is Vince your first and only?

Well, would that be a bad thing?

Well, there's no judgment,

but this shortlist needs to get fixed.

- Soon. Hmm...
- Okay, how long is your list, ma'am?

You know...

Really?
You out of fingers and toes already?

Um I've lost count.

You know what, you've been a riot

ever since Camille, your first crush.

You ever talk to her after high school?

Let's see if she's still in town.

What are you doing?

Don't you worry about what I'm doing.

You found her? Let me see.

Go and get it. Go and get it.

- What?
- Sashay?

Um, all right. Why not?

Come on.

Hey, look, I know you're
used to private cars and private jets.

I ain't too cool to admit
this is new to me, bro.

I like it.

- Yeah, never gets old.
- Yeah.

This investor's about
to drop major stacks.

Make sure he knows he needs you

more than you need him.

Let him know you ain't new to this.

We true to this.

Always.

Yo, we're almost at the hangar.

So dope.

Yo, where are we going?
Like, what cities?

Fam, where are we not going?

First stop, your old stomping ground.

City of angels, baby. La.

Here we come.

Yeah.

Now, if it could all just
magically fall into place...

We ain't gotta do it all at once.

- Mmm.
- Well, some things, we do.

Feels good, huh?

No shower schedules with Aunt Vi,
Hollywood.

A whole fridge to ourselves.

- So quiet.
- Mmm-hmm.

You know, I thought it was Tru...

...but it was vi.

I love her to the moon,
But she can talk.

Mmm.

We ain't got nobody interrupt us now.

- Mmm.
- Mmm.

- You know one thing we don't have now?
- Hmm?

Aunt Vi on night duty.

We're doomed.

- I'll get her.
- Okay.

I'm gonna make this ours.

We're gonna make this home, okay?

Home's wherever we at.

Facts.

Don't forget it.

- I'll be back.
- Okay.

Facts.

My star.

I told you to leave me alone.

Picked up a copy
of blessings and blood.

Filthy little book, full of lies.

I told you to leave me alone.

You think I'm gonna let
some crackhead slut ruin my life?

I will take you and your family down.

You better watch your...
