Previously, on "Greenleaf"...

I think he's coming to ask
me about David Nelson,

that trigger-happy cop.

But I've never even met the man.

We are here demanding
justice for Kenny Collins.

Do you and Isabel have a venue yet?

I want you to have it at the house.

Full disclosure... I'm gay.

- Your Uncle Mac.
- He did it again?

- I know everything.
- You don't know,

and you don't know what you don't know.

Stay the hell out of my business.

This one or this one?

Do you have a preference?

- No.
- Yeah, you do, Izzie.

- I know you do.
- I think they're both fine.

I just want to know which one you like.

This one.

Seriously?

Why do you do this to me?

Because I want you to choose.

What you want.

No, I'm just assuming
just once in this process

you're going to want
the same thing I want.

I'm just waiting to see
what it's going to be about.

- Okay, I like this one.
- It's cool, right?

Yeah, I meant that one.

You did not, you just thought too hard,

but I know you like this one.

Okay, and I think that's all

we have to decide today, Mr. Kendall.

Amazing, only a ten-decision day.

It's the lightest
wedding workload I've had

since I asked you to marry me.

Assuming you've told Lady Mae

we're moving after the wedding.

You haven't told her yet, have you?

I'll tell her today.

Baby, if you don't want
to move, just tell me.

We'll stay. I'll do whatever you want.

- I'll tell her today.
- Okay. You promise?

- I promise.
- Hey, cowboy.

Oh, hey, Gigi.

I'm sorry to interrupt.

No, you're not interrupting.

You two have work to do, I assume.

Yeah, yeah. It's just a quick thing.

- Is there not school today?
- There is, there is.

I'm just taking time off to plan.

Which reminds me,
who's your plus-one, Grace?

I'm having the place cards printed.

- Sophia.
- Really?

There's no one special
you'd rather bring?

It's going to be
a really romantic weekend.

- No, just me and Sophia.
- Oh.

Well, maybe you'll meet
somebody on the dance floor.

I'll pray for you.

Okay, you promise you'll tell her?

I promise.

Bye, cowgirl.

- What's up?
- You got a minute?

So, when Mac came into
my office, he said,

"You don't know, and you don't
know what you don't know."

- What does that even mean?
- I don't know.

But I do know that he's in DC today

meeting with somebody, so...

I'm wondering, and forgive
me if this is whatever...

What?

Is there any way to get in his computer

and, like, look around?

I've got one girl who won't testify

and no other leads.

But I'm... is there no way to do that

that won't get you in trouble?

Getting in trouble doesn't matter

given the circumstances.

Meaning what?

Look, no one knows this yet.

We're moving after the wedding.

Where?

Denver.

Izzie's got a cousin that
works for Lockheed Martin.

He's setting me up with a job.

- Congratulations.
- Yeah, thanks.

I still haven't told your mother yet.

Why? She'll be happy for you.

Oh, after paying for our wedding?

Well, she'll act like she's happy.

Just take the money and run.

Yeah, I guess.

So, is there any way
to get into his computer,

for an hour, even?

Yeah, I'll just have Antoine
tell his secretary

we're updating his operating system.

We'll copy Mac's whole
computer onto a zip drive.

You sound like you've done this before.

Yeah, we had a guy a couple years back

downloading porn at work.

Downloading porn in church.

Yeah, it's always something.

- Yeah.
- I will not miss that.

I swear, people can't
just live their lives.

Everybody's got to be up in
everybody else's business.

What happened now, babe?

This is the fifth email
I've gotten this week.

Apparently Carlton and his partner

held hands at church on Sunday,

so call out the guard.

I told you it wasn't going to be simple

hiring an out gay man, babe.

- Yeah, but it's just...
- Excuse me.

- ...frustrating.
- Sorry about that.

I just realized how prejudiced

people really are.

I mean, what does it cost them

if two men hold hands
or kiss or whatever?

Welcome, the Bible says it's wrong.

The Bible says that
if you don't have love,

you have nothing... 1 Corinthians 13.

- Read the whole book.
- Mm-hmm.

And we're going to line this whole road

with cherry trees in pots,

and it's just going to
be this wonderful,

lovely white tunnel of love.

And we're going to put
the band right here.

Okay.

And then I'm going to
build a dance floor

right down to the edge of the lake.

Oh! Wow.

It could all be more modest,
you know that, right?

Oh, why would we do this modestly?

Isabel, so few people
find happiness and love.

When it happens, you have to celebrate.

You think Noah's happy?

Marrying you? Of course.

What?

Sometimes I wonder if he isn't
still holding a torch for Grace.

Isabel.

With you on his arm?

Well, pardon
my lapse of loyalty, but no.

Are you sure?

I know they were talking
about getting married once.

Twenty years ago... a lifetime.

- They were children.
- I know,

but now she's here,

and she's preaching,
and she's good, and...

Isabel, all men,

and I mean all of them,
Bishop included...

he put me through it...

think as their wedding day approaches,

"Is she the one, really?

Is she or is she?"

And they flip through
that Rolodex of broken dreams

and make you watch while they do it.

You mark my words.

Noah loves you.

If you say so.

It's a whole lot of fuss for nothing.

We already know what the
answer's going to be.

You don't think they're
going to charge him?

- I know they won't.
- Go on in.

They might. Nelson is black.

Did they announce yet?

Waiting for the prosecutor.

Here comes Mr. Pelke now.

I suspect this will be
the news all of Memphis...

Here he comes. Turn it up.

- Mm-hmm.
- Good morning.

A grand jury comprised of
citizens from Shelby County,

after a thorough investigation
into the fatal shooting

of 16-year-old Kenneth Collins

based on the evidence they heard

and the laws that apply
to the police use of force,

has declined to bring criminal charges

against Memphis City
police officer David Nelson.

- Like I said.
- This was also my recommendation...

- Put it on local.
- ...and the recommendation of my office.

- Thank you.
- Well, there's no doubt

that Calvary's public
support of this murderer

went a long way
to shifting public opinion

on this issue,

and now we're all a little less safe

and a little more sorry.

Karine? Get Triumph on the phone.

I'm going to go talk to that boy.

- Hello?
- David, it's Grace.

Hey.

Hey, I just heard. How you doing?

I'm not sure.

People are pretty upset.

I guess I'm going to
be dealing with this

for the rest of my life.

That's what it is.

Are you still at the Templeton?

Yeah, I can't get out.

There's protestors at all the exits.

It's insane.

I'll be right over.

Was that Dave Nelson?

Yeah.

I thought I'd just, you know, check in.

He sounds like he's in shock.

Good shock or bad shock?

Both.

I'm going to go talk to Antoine.

Noah?

Yeah?

Thank you.

You got it.

The Voice of Life, huh?

Number two Christian network
in the country now, sir.

And the gist of it,
if I understand correctly,

is we pay you.

Well, the syndication fee
is just to cover

distribution and marketing.

It's not like you're airing commercials,

if that's your question, Bishop.

It wasn't a question, young man,

it was a statement of fact.

You'll make ten times the fee
once you're on the air.

Look at it this way.

We rent you the land.

You put up your well. You keep the oil.

Oil? Another dirty business.

Jacob mentioned you were
predisposed against doing TV.

Would you mind explaining why?

I'm not sure I see the need.

The Lord has filled
my cup to overflowing,

giving this boy from
the back woods of Arkansas

more than he ever dreamed possible.

And you don't think God wants
you to have even more?

Don't limit the Lord, Bishop,

that's what I say.

You know, I never thought
I would drive a Jaguar,

and now I have three, you feel me?

Well...

you've certainly given us
a lot to think about.

I know it's a lot to take in.

It wasn't that much, really.

I was just being polite.

I can circle back next week.

That won't be necessary.

- We'll call you.
- Don't encourage him, Jacob.

Well, I just meant after we talk...

About what?

The answer's no.

Why, though?

Son, the Bible says time and again

that Jesus went into a solitary place

and people came to him.

He also went into Jerusalem.

On a donkey to die.

I'm not going to hawk the
Gospel like a Ginsu knife.

Sir, if you don't mind me saying,

that's exactly the kind
of righteous rhetoric

that gets people to tune in

and tithing that big green.

Get out.

I'm just saying you're good.

I'm just saying get out.

Okay, then.

That's twice.

Shut the front door.

What was that?

A rather uninteresting waste

of 17 minutes of life.

Did I miss something?

Pop, why did you even
bother taking this meeting

if you knew you weren't interested?

I was hoping that you would see

the folly of this thing for yourself.

More fool me.

There are a dozen pastors in Memphis

who would kill to have that
slot on Voice of Life.

Sadly, I think that's true.

Now, if you'll excuse me...

I'm going to see one of them.

Black lives matter! Black lives matter!

Black lives matter! Black lives matter!

- Where will you go?
- I don't know.

Delaware?

Why Delaware?

Or Utah, Wyoming, wherever.

Somewhere nobody
knows my name or my face.

Can I say something?

I tried to run away.

I ran harder than anybody's ever run.

But 20 years later, here I am.

Running away doesn't fix anything.

Was anybody spitting on you
or calling you a murderer?

I got a feeling it fixes that.

That's probably true, partly anyway.

I guess I just feel like whatever's
going to heal this city, David,

if that healing is even possible,

you're holding a part of it.

And if you leave, you're going
to take that part away with you.

And then someone with less authority,

someone with less firsthand experience

of what actually went wrong,

someone like me is going
to have to talk and talk

to try to make up for what's
missing from the conversation

because you are not here.

And no one will listen.

They'll say, "It's talk. It's all talk."

And they're right, it will be.

But if you stayed and you said,

"I'm sorry, how can we make sure

that this doesn't happen again

or at least happens less often?"

David, people might listen.

I'm not saying that it wouldn't be hard.

I'm just saying...

I'll send you a postcard from Delaware.

I'll look forward to that.

There you go.

30 minutes or less.

Not a word about this, okay?

Peace.

Peace.

- So, when are you leaving?
- Tonight, if I can.

Well, wherever
you actually end up going,

I hope you find some peace.

I don't know if I deserve it.

You do. We all do.

Thanks for returning my call.

Any time.

Good luck, Pastor.

You, too.

- Noah.
- Oh, hey, Lady Mae.

Are you dieting for this wedding?

Because you're looking
more chiseled than usual.

Well, Isabel's got me
pretty busy for this.

Oh, I am sure she does.

I remember reading
that planning a wedding

is the ninth most stressful thing

a person can experience.

Yeah, that sounds about right.

Yeah, and the tenth is being fired.

I'll have to have a look at that list.

I'll be sure to send it to you.

Noah, do you remember
back when Gigi arrived

and I asked you to keep
an eye on her for me?

Yes, ma'am.

This David Nelson fiasco,

it's such a bad penny.

Yeah, I knew nothing about that.

Oh, I'm sure you didn't,

but it got me wondering

if there's something else, though,

that I should know about.

No, not that I know of.

- Noah?
- Yes, ma'am.

There's something you're not telling me.

I know that look.

Isabel and I have been talking

about moving after the wedding.

Moving? Marvelous.

- Where?
- Denver.

She's got people there.

Then why haven't you said anything?

I don't know.

I guess I felt bad.

You and the bishop have
been doing so much for us.

It's a gift. No strings.

Oh, this is so exciting!

Thank you for understanding.

Oh, you don't have to thank me.

It is our pleasure.

Well, run along.

I know you have things to do, busy man.

- Go on.
- God is good.

All the time.

Now make sure we're
hitting Harbor Town

and Victorian Village.

I don't want to just be
in black neighborhoods.

Bishop Greenleaf, come to join us?

We're getting the word out.

What word is that, Pastor?

That God wins in the end.

I'm not sure that perpetuating
a spirit of conflict

in a city that sorely needs peace

is a win for God or anybody else.

You brought the smackdown

and now you just want us to keep quiet?

I'm sorry, you could silence me

and all the rest of these fine folks...

And the rocks and stones would cry out.

I'm familiar with the passage, Pastor.

- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.

- How's that audit coming?
- Oh, it's over.

Barely noticed it.

Oh, no, I wasn't talking
about the church audit.

No, I prayed for a swift

and painless completion to that one.

It wouldn't profit any black church

if one as prominent as yours

was caught cooking the books.

No, it would just
make everybody look bad.

No, I meant the personal audit.

That one.

We were all concerned around here

when we heard about that.

May we possibly speak in private?

I'm afraid I don't have time for that.

Besides, that whole behind
closed doors thing?

It's history.

No, that's for people
with something to hide.

Go on and say what you got to say.

Whip people up all you want.

Make all your big mistakes now, Pastor.

Lord knows, I've made some in my day.

But you keep me and Calvary out of it.

Now, why would I do that?

My Lord commands me in His holy word

to speak out against evil.

David Nelson is a member of my church,

and this ain't about the police.

Oh, I know. They are all
brave men and women.

They're so admirable.

I saw your sermon online,

the way you painted that whole picture

in such glorious color, Bishop,

I almost forgot it was a murder scene.

Almost.

But I'm afraid you fail
to understand, Bishop.

I was talking about you.

I'm not sure I understand.

Oh, I know you don't.

But soon, Bishop James
Greenleaf, soon enough.

Yes, soon, Lord,
that sun of righteousness

will rise on you like a fiery furnace

and you'll be longing for the days

when all I did was call you out.

Count on it.

Pastor, we're ready for you.

Still nothing?

I'm looking through his calendar

around the time
Danielle went to the cops,

around the time she recanted.

I'm hoping there will
be something there.

If you need to go...

No, no, I'm good.

If I go back to my office,

I'll just have to write my vows.

Just say how you feel.

Huh.

What? Did you find something?

I'm not sure yet.

It's an address in Nashville.

Sometimes when you add something

into your calendar
directly from an email,

it automatically
imports the contact info

along with the event.

So...

Oh.

Take a look at this.

Yeah.

We got him.

Hey, you want to help?

It's not a question.

Sure. What do I do?

Zora can show you.

What are these for?

Isabel's wedding.

Cool.

We'll see how cool your fingers feel

50 cranes from now.

How's your Bible coming?

I have to read the whole Bible this year

from start to finish.

- Wow.
- So, where are you? Tell me.

- Judges.
- Oh, Judges.

That's the one with Samson and Delilah.

It's also the one with the tale

of the Levite's concubine.

What's a Levite's concubine?

You ready to flip the eff out?

Zora.

It's a Bible story.

- Tell me.
- All right.

Get ready.

- What are you doing here?
- I need to talk to you.

My mom will be home soon.

I told you, nothing happened.

Danielle, I know about Nashville.

I mean, TV's a great idea.

It might not be the most original one
in the world, but it's a good one.

But why didn't you tell me you
were going to go to him with this?

Because I wanted him
to say yes on its own merits,

not because you made him do it.

If he ever does reinstate me,

I just want it to be
because I deserve it.

But television is
something he'll never do.

Now, Mac told you that, didn't he?

Uncle Mac told you I talked to him?

What's tragic is because
you didn't run it by me,

you now discredited yourself further.

Why won't he do TV, though?

I mean, he beats the hell
out of marketing and outreach

at every staff meeting,

telling them get more
people in the doors.

That's all TV is, just
more people in the doors.

- Jacob...
- He says he wants me to be humble.

- He's not humble.
- All right, Jacob, stop.

The damage is done.

There's no need complaining.

It's just...

I just wish I understood.

So...

Thank you for making this.

Thank you for asking me.

You know I like making
you your bread pudding.

He helped my mama out.

She got into some trouble
for writing bad checks

and had to go to court.

She said he'd be better than
any of the lawyers, for free.

He came over a lot...

to work on the case.

Then he started coming over
just to, like, check in.

He would pick me up from school

when my mom couldn't,

and he would bring us dinner.

He seemed nice.

Then he said he'd teach me to fish.

That's when he started taking
me out to the church camp...

to fish.

I swore to myself
I wouldn't tell anyone,

and I didn't.

Till you realized you were pregnant.

So I went to the police,

and they called my mom.

Then her and Uncle Mac said I should say

I made the whole thing up.

So I did.

Then they brought me to Nashville and...

Hey.

Am I going to go to Hell?

What for?

Killing my baby.

No, sweetheart.

No, you're not going to go to Hell.

You're not going to go to Hell.

Sweetheart.

Danielle, honey, do you think now

that you can come with me to the police?

Tell them what really happened?

- Is there anyone else?
- What do you mean?

Before, you said you'd find someone
else that he'd done this to

so they'd believe me.

I can try, but...

hey, what's that look?

Mama's going to get in trouble.

Why, because she told you to lie?

No, because of the scholarship.

What scholarship?

The one Uncle Mac got her.

Your drawer. Hey, wait a sec.

Don't worry. It will all
be back after the wedding

with more clothes than you've
ever seen in your life.

Good thing that we're moving.

You talked to Lady Mae?

- I did.
- And?

No problem. Full speed ahead.

I'm sorry if I've been difficult.

Oh, no, you haven't been difficult.

I've been directive.

You've been interesting.

I just can't wait to be your wife

and have this whole waiting behind us.

You and me both.

Okay. Okay.

We made it this far without
totally breaking our vows.

Come on, just one last...

- Mm-mm.
- Just one?

You be good.

When we're married,

we'll still do that, right?

Make room in that closet.

I will.

Thank you, God, for this love.

Thank you, God, for this love.

- Amen.
- Amen.

Good morning, Darlene.

Good morning, Pastor Greenleaf.

Thank you for being so willing
to come in on a Saturday.

Oh, it's nothing but a thing.

So, what's on the docket for today?

Why don't you come on in to my office?

Sounds good.

Darlene, let me start by apologizing

for the strangeness
of what I'm about to say.

Oh, have I done something wrong?

No, no. No.

Nothing like that.

Oh, praise the Lord.

Lady Mae's annual luncheon
is coming up in a few weeks.

I know. I can't wait.

She always delivers
such a strong message.

Correct me if I'm wrong,
but part of the ceremony

will be the presentation
of her scholarship

to ten local women, right?

Mm-hmm. That's right.

She gives out money
from her auxiliary funds

for education
and entrepreneurial projects.

Yes, she has made such a huge
difference in the community

with those grants.

Your daughter Vida was a
recipient a few years ago,

wasn't she?

About eight years ago, yes.

To send her to beauty school.

That's right.

I was looking through some paperwork

related to the scholarships

and all the other recipients
submitted applications.

Vida didn't.

Well, because I work here,
it wasn't really necessary

on account of everyone knew
what Vida was hoping to do.

It just happened.

Mm-hmm.

Is Vida in trouble?

No, Darlene.

No.

I think I should go.

- Darlene?
- Yes, Pastor?

Did Lady Mae know?

Know what?

The reason Vida got that money.

No.

Mr. McCready arranged it.

I don't think Lady Mae ever knew.

She was just happy to help.

I knew it wasn't right.

Why did you stay,

with him right down
the hall all these years?

Calvary's my church,

and I thought we had put it past us.

The Bible says don't look back.

I'm so sorry.

Hey, is Isabel here?

No, she's with her folks.

- Why?
- Can I come in?

Yeah, come on in.

Ten women a year for the past 15 years

have received scholarships
from that fund.

I know at least two of those
were actually payoffs for Mac.

I think it's safe
to assume there are more.

That would make sense.
If it worked twice...

Which means if we turn Mac in,

the fact that money from the church

was used to silence these girls...

Yeah, but it was just Mac, right?

I mean, he was acting alone.

Yeah, but it doesn't look that way,

and he knew that.

In the time between it looking like

my mother knew about it
and proving that she didn't...

There would be a huge scandal.

It would look like she knew about it.

It would look like my dad knew about it.

That's what he meant

when he said I didn't know
what I didn't know.

I could just kill him.

Look, I know it's not simple,

but you got the proof
you were looking for.

Danielle will come forward

now that you have
this other girl, right?

That's what she said.

So, you can go to the police.

Yeah, and destroy the church.

Look, you knew that might be
the case when you came back.

- You said...
- I know what I said, Noah.

I didn't know what it would mean to me.

I didn't know.

Who was that on the phone?

Mac.

How'd it go with his friend in DC?

They've called off the dogs.

There won't be any personal audit.

Don't look at me like that.

He got us in that mess.

I don't think he deserves no prize

for getting us out of it.

It would have been better
if the whole thing

hadn't happened in the first place.

Ah.

When are you going to tell the children

or let me?

Our son is laboring
under the supposition

that he's disappointed you

and that's why you won't go on TV.

What are you going to do?

I don't know.

I'm remembering now
why I left the first time.

Just go to the police.

That's what you came back to do.

Do it.

Yeah.

What?

You're getting married.

I know.

It's crazy, right?

What?

- Nothing.
- No, say it.

We might not get the chance
to talk like this again.

I was just thinking...

I was just thinking,

if all this hadn't happened,

that son of a bitch

hadn't done what he did to Faith...

we'd still be together.

I don't know about that.

We might be.

I always thought you'd wind up

with someone more exciting.

You think that's what I want?

Someone more exciting?

Noah.

You were home to me.

When I was with you, I was home.

He took that away from me,
along with everything else.

I hate him for that.

Noah.

I should go.

Yeah.

You probably should.

God, I'm sorry.

No, no. Don't be.

Again.

Noah, come here. Come here.

I love you.

I love you, too.

You're up early.

Yeah, you, too, Mama.

Oh, I've been up most of the night

worrying about your brother.

Why? What happened now?

What happened? You.

You happened.

I got to get ready for church.

Don't you walk away from me.

Mama, can we just not, please?

Grace, as long as you're here,

your father's going to continue
to deny Jacob his rightful place.

His rightful place.

Mama, before I left,

Jacob was talking about playing
minor league baseball.

He never wanted to preach.

No, he didn't.

But you ran off and left your father

with nobody to help and he stepped up.

Because you pushed him.

Church is not a family business.

Preaching is a call from God.

And who are you to stand here

talking about being called by God,

looking like you been rode
hard and put away wet?

Where have you been all night?

Out.

Well, your car never left the driveway.

So, where were you, Pastor Greenleaf?

It's not what you think.

Lying. You want to add that

to your list of sins this morning?

Sometimes it seems like
you won't be satisfied

until you have burned
this place to the ground.

Are...

I'd be angry if I wasn't so
filled with sympathy for you.

You must be so lonely.

So, anyway, on their way back home,

they stop in this little town.

Mm-hmm.

And a bunch of men come to the door

of the house they're staying at and say,

"Send out the Levite
that we may know him."

Which Zora said means they
want to have sex with him?

Yeah, that's what that means.

But he's scared,
which of course he would be,

so he makes his concubine
go out there instead.

And the men, they, like, attack her.

All night.

And then in the morning, he's so upset,

he kills her and cuts her
into twelve pieces

and sends one to each
of the twelve tribes.

Why is that in the Bible?

I don't know, honey.

I mean, it's so awful.

What's the point?

I don't know,

maybe that sometimes life is awful?

It doesn't say that it was a good thing.

It just said that it happened.

Maybe the point is that sometimes
people do terrible things.

But that isn't the end of the story.

No, it wasn't the end of the story.

After that, there was a war.

Okay, honey. Why don't you
go get dressed, baby?

We're going to be late.

Okay, but I'm just saying...

I know.

There was a war. There was a war.

Pastor Greenleaf?

Hey, honey, I'll meet you inside, okay?

- Is that...
- Yeah.

Save me a seat? This is a surprise.

I thought you'd be
halfway to Delaware by now.

Yeah, well, you got me thinking.

I'm sorry about that.

No, it's a good thing.

For my brother.

Oh, my God!

- David!
- Oh, my God!

David. Somebody get some help!

Get some help!

Get some help!

David, look at me.
