1
00:00:14,373 --> 00:00:16,288
- Whoo!
- Come on now!
2
00:00:16,375 --> 00:00:18,943
Hey, hey!
3
00:00:19,117 --> 00:00:22,512
Hello, Oak Bluffs!
4
00:00:22,686 --> 00:00:24,470
So, did you know that the Black elite
5
00:00:24,557 --> 00:00:26,342
have been coming here
since the late 1800s?
6
00:00:26,472 --> 00:00:28,953
Oh, and we have to go
to Nancy's Restaurant
7
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,347
because Sasha Obama
had a summer job there.
8
00:00:31,477 --> 00:00:35,264
- Okay. Goals. Thank you. "Goals"?
What? Working at a restaurant?
9
00:00:35,394 --> 00:00:37,135
Being Sasha Obama.
10
00:00:38,833 --> 00:00:40,704
Why you got us riding around,
11
00:00:40,791 --> 00:00:43,794
hair blowing, like white
women selling shampoo?
12
00:00:43,925 --> 00:00:46,231
Now, you know we're
selling more than shampoo.
13
00:00:46,318 --> 00:00:47,537
What are we selling?
14
00:00:47,711 --> 00:00:49,234
Identity and... ?
15
00:00:49,321 --> 00:00:51,149
Freedom!
16
00:00:51,323 --> 00:00:52,760
Yes! Yes, girl!
17
00:00:52,847 --> 00:00:54,936
But I swear, if this wig fall off...
18
00:00:55,110 --> 00:00:57,155
Mom, pull over.
19
00:00:57,329 --> 00:00:59,505
That water is probably cold, baby girl.
20
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,159
I don't care.
21
00:01:01,290 --> 00:01:04,641
This is my first time at the beach.
22
00:01:04,728 --> 00:01:06,599
Cold or not, I'm getting in.
23
00:01:06,730 --> 00:01:08,558
There's gonna be a lot of
firsts for you this summer.
24
00:01:08,732 --> 00:01:10,516
Really? Well...
25
00:01:10,647 --> 00:01:12,170
let's have a swim, then.
26
00:01:12,301 --> 00:01:14,172
- Eee!
- First swim of the summer!
27
00:01:14,303 --> 00:01:16,522
Well, I ain't going near the water.
28
00:01:16,609 --> 00:01:18,133
I don't want my 'do to get wet.
29
00:01:20,526 --> 00:01:22,224
- Ooh.
- Whoo!
30
00:01:22,311 --> 00:01:23,529
Feels good!
31
00:01:24,748 --> 00:01:26,402
You coming for me?!
32
00:01:26,532 --> 00:01:28,143
- Oh, you... you coming...
- Uh-huh!
33
00:01:37,674 --> 00:01:38,806
You okay, Ange?
34
00:01:54,082 --> 00:01:57,215
All this reminds me of Mama.
35
00:01:57,389 --> 00:01:59,827
We're only here because of her.
36
00:01:59,914 --> 00:02:03,352
The deed she left on
that old building...
37
00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:05,354
I'm sorry. I just...
38
00:02:05,441 --> 00:02:07,791
Yes, we are here because of her,
39
00:02:07,878 --> 00:02:10,054
to finish what she couldn't.
40
00:02:10,228 --> 00:02:11,620
Opening up a pop-up shop
41
00:02:11,621 --> 00:02:16,060
where she used to work
as a maid is full circle.
42
00:02:16,234 --> 00:02:18,889
And this is your homage, child.
43
00:02:19,063 --> 00:02:22,414
So you ain't got to
apologize for the feeling.
44
00:02:22,501 --> 00:02:24,416
I always said grieving
people should have, like,
45
00:02:24,590 --> 00:02:26,418
wristbands or something,
46
00:02:26,505 --> 00:02:30,727
'cause it just... it just
rolls in when it wants to.
47
00:02:30,814 --> 00:02:33,251
Well, just let it roll, baby.
48
00:02:33,425 --> 00:02:36,385
'Cause my baby sister... she's here.
49
00:02:39,301 --> 00:02:40,606
I love you.
50
00:02:50,616 --> 00:02:53,271
I know she is smiling
down at us right now,
51
00:02:53,445 --> 00:02:55,534
asking who stole her conditioner.
52
00:02:55,621 --> 00:02:57,319
Mm-hmm.
53
00:02:57,493 --> 00:03:00,191
Talkin' 'bout "shea butter
does not grow on trees."
54
00:03:00,322 --> 00:03:01,714
Yes, it do.
55
00:03:01,889 --> 00:03:03,194
I'm like...
56
00:03:17,252 --> 00:03:19,123
Okay.
57
00:03:19,297 --> 00:03:23,258
So, we just got to the Vineyard.
58
00:03:23,345 --> 00:03:26,261
Kek4drake wants to
know what I'm wearing.
59
00:03:26,348 --> 00:03:28,698
Thirsty Couture 2021.
60
00:03:28,785 --> 00:03:31,005
Okay, Lauren, we do
not flaunt our money.
61
00:03:31,179 --> 00:03:33,703
We do not sell our
bodies. We use our minds.
62
00:03:33,790 --> 00:03:36,314
You know, there's a higher
expectation for you both.
63
00:03:36,488 --> 00:03:38,534
You're Duponts and Franklins.
64
00:03:38,708 --> 00:03:39,970
Don't ever forget that.
65
00:03:40,101 --> 00:03:41,450
Let's put away the phone, sweetheart.
66
00:03:41,537 --> 00:03:42,712
For now.
67
00:03:42,886 --> 00:03:45,976
Welcome back!
68
00:03:46,107 --> 00:03:47,456
I'll have the luggage
loaded into the car.
69
00:03:47,543 --> 00:03:49,153
Thank you, Jackie.
70
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,591
Well, you were supposed to
be here over an hour ago.
71
00:03:52,765 --> 00:03:54,680
I started thinking I
was going to have to prep
72
00:03:54,855 --> 00:03:56,726
for tonight's gala alone.
73
00:03:56,813 --> 00:03:58,597
Well, I told you I had it under control.
74
00:03:58,684 --> 00:04:00,686
Well, do you?
75
00:04:00,773 --> 00:04:04,516
Because summer starts tonight,
and this party sets the bar
76
00:04:04,603 --> 00:04:08,172
for the Graceties' fundraising efforts.
77
00:04:08,259 --> 00:04:09,695
Kids, why don't you and
Mama Liv go catch up?
78
00:04:12,785 --> 00:04:14,352
Thanks for having my back.
79
00:04:14,526 --> 00:04:16,006
- Of course.
- Mm-hmm.
80
00:04:16,137 --> 00:04:18,182
You know, I birthed two
beautiful grandchildren for her,
81
00:04:18,356 --> 00:04:19,575
and she still comes for me.
82
00:04:19,705 --> 00:04:21,185
Well, you know Mama Liv's always on 10.
83
00:04:21,359 --> 00:04:23,187
Mm. And you wouldn't
love her if she wasn't.
84
00:04:23,361 --> 00:04:24,797
You wanna bet?
85
00:04:24,928 --> 00:04:26,582
No, not at all.
86
00:04:26,756 --> 00:04:30,194
But as this summer is about us
87
00:04:30,368 --> 00:04:31,979
getting our marriage back on track,
88
00:04:32,066 --> 00:04:34,546
back to where we were,
I'll always have your back.
89
00:04:34,633 --> 00:04:36,505
Mm. I like that.
90
00:04:36,635 --> 00:04:38,333
Mm-hmm.
91
00:04:38,420 --> 00:04:39,769
And if you're good, a little bit later,
92
00:04:39,856 --> 00:04:41,902
I'll make sure I tend to
that "back," personally.
93
00:04:41,989 --> 00:04:43,686
Mm. Mm.
94
00:04:43,773 --> 00:04:44,861
Mm.
95
00:04:51,868 --> 00:04:54,305
Oh, my God.
96
00:05:04,011 --> 00:05:06,665
My God. Is... Is this...
97
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,842
This old boarding house is all ours.
98
00:05:10,017 --> 00:05:11,409
Mama never said a word.
99
00:05:11,583 --> 00:05:14,412
This is where your
mother started doing hair.
100
00:05:14,586 --> 00:05:18,851
She had all these maids dyed,
fried, and laid to the side.
101
00:05:18,982 --> 00:05:20,636
She swore she'd never come back
102
00:05:20,766 --> 00:05:22,768
after what happened with your father.
103
00:05:22,943 --> 00:05:25,946
She never even told you his name?
104
00:05:26,033 --> 00:05:29,340
She died with that secret, too.
105
00:05:42,658 --> 00:05:44,660
Ow, Mama.
106
00:05:44,790 --> 00:05:46,488
Angie, I know you're
excited to meet your daddy,
107
00:05:46,662 --> 00:05:48,620
but sit still.
108
00:05:48,707 --> 00:05:51,101
Why ain't I ever met him before?
109
00:05:51,232 --> 00:05:53,582
He was busy getting everything ready.
110
00:05:53,669 --> 00:05:55,932
But now we're gonna
live like a real family
111
00:05:56,019 --> 00:05:58,456
in a castle on the water.
112
00:05:58,630 --> 00:06:00,328
I wanna look real pretty.
113
00:06:03,766 --> 00:06:06,638
Okay.
114
00:06:06,725 --> 00:06:08,031
How do I look?
115
00:06:08,118 --> 00:06:09,815
You look beautiful.
116
00:06:12,818 --> 00:06:14,559
You wait right here.
117
00:06:18,041 --> 00:06:20,478
You made me keep quiet.
118
00:06:20,652 --> 00:06:22,263
You want to pay me off?
119
00:06:22,437 --> 00:06:23,525
Get out!
120
00:06:23,699 --> 00:06:25,309
Before I beat the Black off of you.
121
00:06:25,483 --> 00:06:27,833
Get out of this house right now!
122
00:06:34,666 --> 00:06:35,841
Daddy!
123
00:06:45,851 --> 00:06:48,637
I'm here now, Mom.
124
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:25,000
- Synced and corrected by chamallow -

125
00:07:36,032 --> 00:07:37,990
You know, all this time we
were eating instant grits,
126
00:07:38,165 --> 00:07:40,036
we could have been dining on steak
127
00:07:40,123 --> 00:07:42,169
at some waterfront property.
128
00:07:42,256 --> 00:07:43,866
I did love her grits, though.
129
00:07:43,953 --> 00:07:46,390
Me too.
130
00:07:46,564 --> 00:07:49,393
So, um, when are we
gonna spread her ashes?
131
00:07:49,567 --> 00:07:51,787
Let's just get settled first, all right?
132
00:07:51,917 --> 00:07:53,136
You've had a really rough year.
133
00:07:53,223 --> 00:07:55,356
I got expelled from school for fighting.
134
00:07:55,530 --> 00:07:57,488
I caught a case. You can say it, Mom.
135
00:08:00,752 --> 00:08:01,927
Mom.
136
00:08:02,058 --> 00:08:03,581
Come here.
137
00:08:03,755 --> 00:08:04,755
- Mom.
- Come here!
138
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:05,888
- Mom!
- Get up here!
139
00:08:05,975 --> 00:08:07,368
Okay!
140
00:08:07,542 --> 00:08:08,542
Stop!
141
00:08:10,458 --> 00:08:14,157
I want this to be a fresh
start for both of us.
142
00:08:14,244 --> 00:08:17,291
I want to create some
generational wealth up in here,
143
00:08:17,465 --> 00:08:20,294
for you, your kids... if you want them.
144
00:08:20,468 --> 00:08:22,600
I mean, I was even thinking
you could join Jack and Jill.
145
00:08:22,731 --> 00:08:24,211
No, Mom.
146
00:08:24,298 --> 00:08:26,169
I read about that club, and
those kids start hanging out
147
00:08:26,256 --> 00:08:27,605
when they're like three years old,
148
00:08:27,736 --> 00:08:29,564
and they don't want
some new girl in the mix.
149
00:08:29,651 --> 00:08:31,522
- And I don't want to be in the mix.
- Um, excuse me.
150
00:08:31,609 --> 00:08:32,697
Have you met yourself?
151
00:08:32,784 --> 00:08:35,004
You are everything.
152
00:08:35,091 --> 00:08:36,832
Anybody would love to hang out with you.
153
00:08:36,962 --> 00:08:40,444
I'm just trying to give you
more and better than I had.
154
00:08:40,618 --> 00:08:42,229
These people can help us.
155
00:08:42,316 --> 00:08:44,796
Just need you to give me a chance.
156
00:08:44,883 --> 00:08:47,582
Okay?
157
00:08:47,756 --> 00:08:49,192
Okay.
158
00:08:49,279 --> 00:08:50,846
So, you know, how are you gonna get it?
159
00:08:50,976 --> 00:08:54,023
'Cause I know you always have
a hustle, or whatever you do.
160
00:08:54,110 --> 00:08:56,330
As a matter of fact, I just
got us invited to a party.
161
00:08:56,504 --> 00:08:57,983
Oh!
162
00:08:58,158 --> 00:08:59,637
Well...
163
00:08:59,768 --> 00:09:00,899
let's go to the party.
164
00:09:00,986 --> 00:09:02,640
It's gonna be all right.
165
00:09:02,771 --> 00:09:04,381
Okay.
166
00:09:19,309 --> 00:09:21,137
Well, your mother was right.
167
00:09:21,311 --> 00:09:23,095
But don't tell her I said that.
168
00:09:23,270 --> 00:09:25,663
All eyes are on me tonight.
169
00:09:25,794 --> 00:09:28,884
Baby, you are the baddest
woman at this party.
170
00:09:29,014 --> 00:09:30,668
All eyes should be on you.
171
00:09:30,799 --> 00:09:32,670
There's too much riding on this summer
172
00:09:32,801 --> 00:09:34,455
for me to make mistakes.
173
00:09:34,542 --> 00:09:39,286
The Graceties, work, the kids, and you.
174
00:09:39,373 --> 00:09:41,810
I have never seen you
drop a ball in your life.
175
00:09:44,856 --> 00:09:47,685
You are stronger than you think.
176
00:09:47,859 --> 00:09:50,819
Together, we're even stronger.
177
00:09:50,906 --> 00:09:53,213
? But nothing lasts forever ?
178
00:09:56,912 --> 00:09:59,654
We are not in Boston anymore, y'all.
179
00:10:01,308 --> 00:10:03,397
Mama Eve used to work this party?
180
00:10:03,571 --> 00:10:05,094
Mm-hmm.
181
00:10:05,181 --> 00:10:07,314
You know, my father could be here
182
00:10:07,401 --> 00:10:08,880
and I wouldn't even know it.
183
00:10:08,967 --> 00:10:10,491
It's his loss.
184
00:10:10,665 --> 00:10:11,970
Always has been.
185
00:10:12,144 --> 00:10:14,538
Angie!
186
00:10:18,194 --> 00:10:19,194
Girl, I'm so glad you got in.
187
00:10:19,239 --> 00:10:20,544
You remember the baby?
188
00:10:20,718 --> 00:10:22,198
- Oh, my God.
- Can you believe it?
189
00:10:22,285 --> 00:10:23,852
Nikki!
190
00:10:23,939 --> 00:10:25,375
Aunt Piggy.
191
00:10:25,549 --> 00:10:26,985
All right, Nikki, try to
have some fun, all right?
192
00:10:27,159 --> 00:10:28,204
- You, too, Piggy.
- Uh-huh.
193
00:10:28,378 --> 00:10:29,945
From your mouth to God's ears.
194
00:10:30,075 --> 00:10:31,512
You look just the same.
195
00:10:34,689 --> 00:10:37,082
- I wanna say hi to the host.
- Oh.
196
00:10:37,169 --> 00:10:38,867
Oh, you wanna wade into the deep waters.
197
00:10:38,954 --> 00:10:41,173
Yeah. Well, that's Leah
Franklin-Dupont, girl.
198
00:10:41,348 --> 00:10:43,306
I know. What? You forgot?
199
00:10:43,393 --> 00:10:45,656
I can charm a black dog white.
200
00:10:45,743 --> 00:10:47,179
True.
201
00:10:47,354 --> 00:10:49,356
? I got the feeling, I'm about to blow ?
202
00:10:49,443 --> 00:10:51,749
- ? Been in the kitchen and cookin' on the low ?
- Sorry.
203
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,924
? I'm on the ceiling ?
204
00:10:53,011 --> 00:10:54,752
Uh, can I have, like, a...
205
00:10:54,926 --> 00:10:56,754
a club... club soda
or something, please?
206
00:10:56,928 --> 00:11:01,019
- Thank you.
- These parties are boring as hell if you're not lit.
207
00:11:01,193 --> 00:11:03,805
Let's do vodka for the lady.
208
00:11:03,979 --> 00:11:05,241
Coming right up, Mr. Dupont.
209
00:11:05,415 --> 00:11:07,722
So, is this, like, your party, or... ?
210
00:11:07,809 --> 00:11:11,160
No. This is my parents' party.
211
00:11:11,247 --> 00:11:14,119
My parties are way better than this.
212
00:11:14,250 --> 00:11:15,730
Okay.
213
00:11:17,122 --> 00:11:18,907
Um, hello?
214
00:11:18,994 --> 00:11:20,125
We're supposed to be taking
this Jack and Jill photo
215
00:11:20,126 --> 00:11:21,605
on the beach for my feed.
216
00:11:21,779 --> 00:11:24,608
- Okay.
- Lo, you're being rude.
217
00:11:24,782 --> 00:11:25,870
I'm Taylor.
218
00:11:25,957 --> 00:11:27,611
This is Lauren.
219
00:11:27,785 --> 00:11:29,831
Hi. Uh, I... I'm Nikki.
220
00:11:30,005 --> 00:11:31,833
Um, I'm kind of, like, new around here,
221
00:11:32,007 --> 00:11:34,226
but my mom's opening a
store on Delois Street.
222
00:11:34,357 --> 00:11:35,619
It's like a Black hair care kinda...
223
00:11:35,706 --> 00:11:37,447
Guys, are we taking this photo or not?
224
00:11:40,232 --> 00:11:43,279
I guess they don't teach
manners in the sunken place.
225
00:11:43,453 --> 00:11:45,716
That actually wasn't funny.
226
00:11:45,803 --> 00:11:47,805
- It was a little funny.
- I see you, new girl.
227
00:11:47,979 --> 00:11:50,155
We need some fresh blood around here.
228
00:11:50,242 --> 00:11:52,027
A few of us are getting
together tomorrow night,
229
00:11:52,201 --> 00:11:54,812
if you want to hang.
230
00:11:54,986 --> 00:11:57,162
I'm okay. Thank you, though.
231
00:11:57,337 --> 00:12:00,078
Cool. Meet us on the dock at 9:00.
232
00:12:02,385 --> 00:12:03,908
Until then, let's grab my photo.
233
00:12:03,995 --> 00:12:04,995
Quincy.
234
00:12:09,784 --> 00:12:11,394
Excuse me.
235
00:12:11,481 --> 00:12:13,091
I just had to meet
the host of this party.
236
00:12:13,265 --> 00:12:16,225
I am Angela Vaughn.
I'm Josephine's friend.
237
00:12:16,312 --> 00:12:18,096
This is such a great
party. It's such a pleasure.
238
00:12:18,270 --> 00:12:20,316
- Nice to meet you.
- Oh, it is lovely to meet you.
239
00:12:20,490 --> 00:12:22,013
And your husband? Is he here, too?
240
00:12:22,100 --> 00:12:23,537
I'm not married.
241
00:12:23,711 --> 00:12:26,278
I do have a 17-year-old
daughter, going on 30.
242
00:12:26,453 --> 00:12:28,977
- Mm. Yeah, well, we have one of those, too.
- Yes, we do.
243
00:12:29,151 --> 00:12:32,023
She's 17 and full of...
244
00:12:32,110 --> 00:12:33,634
- opinions.
- Exactly.
245
00:12:33,808 --> 00:12:36,637
You know, they grow up
so fast. - - Too fast.
246
00:12:36,811 --> 00:12:38,073
I'm just happy to have her with me
247
00:12:38,247 --> 00:12:39,944
while I open my pop-up
shop, Eve's Crown.
248
00:12:40,031 --> 00:12:42,839
Wait, Eve's Crown. Where
have I heard that name before?
249
00:12:42,913 --> 00:12:45,646
I applied for the small business
incubator program at Franklin.
250
00:12:45,820 --> 00:12:47,691
Yes. Yes, yes. Black hair care.
251
00:12:47,778 --> 00:12:49,301
- You know, it's hot right now.
- Mm.
252
00:12:49,366 --> 00:12:51,193
A Black woman's relationship
with her hair starts
253
00:12:51,324 --> 00:12:53,761
well before she can even
walk, continues from the moment
254
00:12:53,935 --> 00:12:56,155
her mother teaches her
how to do her own hair.
255
00:12:56,242 --> 00:12:59,289
It evolves. It's
generational. It's personal.
256
00:12:59,376 --> 00:13:01,769
It's a lot more than "hot right now,"
257
00:13:01,900 --> 00:13:03,771
and I think I'd be a
great fit for your program.
258
00:13:03,902 --> 00:13:06,470
Well, if you keep that passion,
you just might make the cut.
259
00:13:06,644 --> 00:13:08,167
And I did want to say how amazing it is
260
00:13:08,254 --> 00:13:09,473
that you are raising money
261
00:13:09,647 --> 00:13:11,344
for the single mother outreach tonight,
262
00:13:11,431 --> 00:13:13,433
and I wanted to give you a donation
263
00:13:13,607 --> 00:13:15,305
on behalf of my business, Eve's Crown.
264
00:13:18,133 --> 00:13:21,049
Uh, the donation box is at the entrance.
265
00:13:29,797 --> 00:13:32,147
You know, I still don't
know why Miss Thang-Thang
266
00:13:32,322 --> 00:13:34,149
snubbed her nose to your check.
267
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:35,368
It's good money.
268
00:13:37,022 --> 00:13:38,153
It is good, isn't it?
269
00:13:38,284 --> 00:13:40,460
Oh, pl... Of course it's good.
270
00:13:40,591 --> 00:13:43,114
I just gotta figure out how things
work around here, that's all.
271
00:13:43,158 --> 00:13:45,204
Ow! Whoa.
272
00:13:45,378 --> 00:13:47,815
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
273
00:13:47,946 --> 00:13:49,469
Looks like someone had fun.
274
00:13:49,643 --> 00:13:51,645
I didn't think I would get
a chance to meet you tonight.
275
00:13:51,819 --> 00:13:53,647
Can I... can I help you with that?
276
00:13:53,821 --> 00:13:56,215
Oh, yes. Please. Thank you.
277
00:13:56,302 --> 00:13:57,869
? Ain't no escaping ?
278
00:14:00,219 --> 00:14:03,091
? So I'll just let you in ?
279
00:14:03,178 --> 00:14:05,050
Oh. Oh!
280
00:14:05,180 --> 00:14:08,009
? You're such a work of art ?
281
00:14:10,055 --> 00:14:11,273
? The way you draw to me ?
282
00:14:11,448 --> 00:14:13,972
Thank you.
283
00:14:14,146 --> 00:14:15,365
Um...
284
00:14:15,452 --> 00:14:17,018
I'm Angela Vaughn.
285
00:14:17,192 --> 00:14:19,499
Tyrique.
286
00:14:19,630 --> 00:14:22,328
Guess I'll be seeing
you around the Bluffs.
287
00:14:22,502 --> 00:14:24,199
I guess you will, Ms. Vaughn.
288
00:14:24,286 --> 00:14:28,160
? You take me away, away, away ?
289
00:14:28,247 --> 00:14:29,857
Good Lord.
290
00:14:30,031 --> 00:14:31,859
Chocolate does melt
in the summer, right?
291
00:14:31,990 --> 00:14:34,645
- Piggy...
- 'Cause I'm trying to sop all that up.
292
00:14:34,732 --> 00:14:37,691
- Piggy...
- Ooh. Let the summer begin.
293
00:14:37,865 --> 00:14:39,171
Okay, well, I am not
here to make new friends.
294
00:14:39,258 --> 00:14:42,914
I'm here for the win.
295
00:14:43,088 --> 00:14:45,177
Head up, crown on.
296
00:14:51,966 --> 00:14:53,316
I told you I was moving to
the Vineyard for the summer,
297
00:14:53,403 --> 00:14:54,839
and you know what that means.
298
00:14:55,013 --> 00:14:56,710
Humidity.
299
00:14:56,884 --> 00:15:01,280
All right, we're using
this conditioner today.
300
00:15:01,367 --> 00:15:04,370
My mother always said a
woman who can do her own hair
301
00:15:04,457 --> 00:15:07,242
is not dependent on anybody.
302
00:15:07,373 --> 00:15:08,983
Time to claim your power.
303
00:15:14,728 --> 00:15:16,948
I had dreams, baby.
304
00:15:17,035 --> 00:15:20,865
I had a small salon, and I was
gonna make it something big, but...
305
00:15:26,523 --> 00:15:28,176
Mama, don't cry.
306
00:15:30,309 --> 00:15:32,398
I'm done crying. It's on you now.
307
00:15:32,485 --> 00:15:35,140
You are still gonna be a queen.
308
00:15:35,314 --> 00:15:38,317
Take one part honey and
add it to this coconut oil.
309
00:15:40,711 --> 00:15:45,759
Then take the rose water
and mix it all together.
310
00:15:45,933 --> 00:15:48,283
This is my homemade conditioner.
311
00:15:48,458 --> 00:15:50,285
You got that?
312
00:15:50,416 --> 00:15:51,504
I love you.
313
00:15:51,635 --> 00:15:52,636
I love you, too, Mommy.
314
00:15:59,730 --> 00:16:03,516
Franklin Holdings has
a deeply rooted history
315
00:16:03,603 --> 00:16:06,780
here in the Bluffs and in the
African American community.
316
00:16:06,954 --> 00:16:09,609
We are the largest holdings company,
317
00:16:09,783 --> 00:16:14,396
with shares and assets to
more than 150 companies,
318
00:16:14,571 --> 00:16:17,487
and you all know where we started.
319
00:16:17,574 --> 00:16:19,358
Sanitation.
320
00:16:20,751 --> 00:16:25,364
- Sorry I'm late, Dad.
- Oh, no, little girl, you are right on time.
321
00:16:25,451 --> 00:16:27,801
I was just about to
announce our new golden egg.
322
00:16:27,975 --> 00:16:32,893
Franklin Athletics is in
talks to buy the Boston Tide.
323
00:16:32,980 --> 00:16:35,417
Under our ownership, we
would propose to move the team
324
00:16:35,592 --> 00:16:38,769
to our newly built Franklin Stadium
325
00:16:38,943 --> 00:16:42,642
and revive a depressed area.
326
00:16:42,816 --> 00:16:46,472
The synergy of business
and community service.
327
00:16:46,559 --> 00:16:48,518
That is Franklin.
328
00:16:50,607 --> 00:16:52,522
I know all your dirt.
329
00:16:52,609 --> 00:16:54,567
Now get your damn hands off me.
330
00:16:54,654 --> 00:16:56,569
How about we all take a break?
331
00:17:05,447 --> 00:17:07,798
I spent my morning getting
caught up on our stadium deal,
332
00:17:07,972 --> 00:17:10,627
and it turns out you're
a crook and a liar.
333
00:17:10,801 --> 00:17:13,499
And what is it you think you know?
334
00:17:13,673 --> 00:17:15,370
While I was finishing the stadium deal,
335
00:17:15,457 --> 00:17:17,808
you bribed local officials,
interfered with zoning.
336
00:17:17,938 --> 00:17:19,915
I've spent my entire life
337
00:17:19,916 --> 00:17:21,855
trying to live up to
the great Teddy Franklin.
338
00:17:22,029 --> 00:17:25,380
Have you learned nothing
sitting at my right hand?
339
00:17:25,467 --> 00:17:27,774
Generations of this
family built all of this.
340
00:17:27,861 --> 00:17:29,820
Your great-grandparents came to Boston
341
00:17:29,950 --> 00:17:31,909
with nothing in their pockets
342
00:17:32,039 --> 00:17:34,868
and became one of the first
families to make it up north.
343
00:17:34,955 --> 00:17:37,523
My father built on that. I
multiplied on what he built.
344
00:17:37,610 --> 00:17:39,090
So, we didn't just "make it."
345
00:17:39,177 --> 00:17:41,396
We rose above it.
346
00:17:41,483 --> 00:17:44,922
And we maintained that legacy
generation after generation
347
00:17:45,096 --> 00:17:47,968
by continuing to build,
educate, and refine,
348
00:17:48,055 --> 00:17:51,842
and we do these things not
to show that we have arrived.
349
00:17:52,016 --> 00:17:55,454
We do this so that we
can keep our heads up high
350
00:17:55,541 --> 00:17:58,849
and the least of us
never has to bend his back
351
00:17:59,023 --> 00:18:01,852
in the cotton field ever again.
352
00:18:02,026 --> 00:18:04,419
Seeing this family, the Franklins,
353
00:18:04,506 --> 00:18:07,684
gives our people hope, and
as patriarch of this family,
354
00:18:07,858 --> 00:18:09,424
I take that very seriously.
355
00:18:09,511 --> 00:18:13,298
So, yes, eventually, I
will lift the neighborhood
356
00:18:13,472 --> 00:18:16,910
that you care so much
about with the revenue
357
00:18:17,084 --> 00:18:21,523
brought by a stadium
that Franklin built.
358
00:18:21,698 --> 00:18:23,569
You have twisted the
legacy of this family
359
00:18:23,656 --> 00:18:24,918
to serve your own greed.
360
00:18:25,092 --> 00:18:27,921
Do you know why I bought this table?
361
00:18:28,008 --> 00:18:31,098
Because it was the
biggest one I could find.
362
00:18:31,185 --> 00:18:35,015
And I put it in this room
because of the incline,
363
00:18:35,102 --> 00:18:38,671
so that everyone
sitting around this table
364
00:18:38,845 --> 00:18:43,502
has to raise their
head to look up at me,
365
00:18:43,589 --> 00:18:46,810
a Black man in America,
366
00:18:46,984 --> 00:18:50,727
holding the American
dream in my Black hands.
367
00:18:50,814 --> 00:18:52,340
So, don't you tell me
368
00:18:52,341 --> 00:18:55,688
that you don't like the
dirt under my fingernails.
369
00:18:55,775 --> 00:18:58,212
You can keep your seat
at the foot of this table.
370
00:18:58,386 --> 00:19:01,912
Just never forget who sits at
the head of it, little girl.
371
00:19:11,008 --> 00:19:12,444
- How you doing, Jim?
- I'm good. How are you?
372
00:19:12,531 --> 00:19:13,750
Good. Good.
373
00:19:13,924 --> 00:19:14,968
What you trying to do with that?
374
00:19:15,142 --> 00:19:17,101
Only that right there.
375
00:19:17,275 --> 00:19:18,972
That's luck.
376
00:19:19,059 --> 00:19:21,279
Yeah, well, thanks for
giving me the chains.
377
00:19:21,453 --> 00:19:22,933
Listen, son, I was, uh...
378
00:19:23,063 --> 00:19:24,412
was hoping we could spend
a little quality time
379
00:19:24,586 --> 00:19:25,979
- together this summer.
- All right.
380
00:19:26,066 --> 00:19:28,895
Also, to attend this
Kingship induction ceremony
381
00:19:28,982 --> 00:19:29,982
with me tomorrow night.
382
00:19:31,942 --> 00:19:34,988
Okay. Yeah. But, I mean,
what would I even do there?
383
00:19:35,075 --> 00:19:39,427
Observe, listen, learn, absorb the
power that's gonna be in that room.
384
00:19:39,601 --> 00:19:43,867
I tell you, I remember my,
uh... my first club meeting.
385
00:19:43,954 --> 00:19:45,782
The rest of America... they had to wait
386
00:19:45,869 --> 00:19:48,045
until Obama was president
to see a Black man in power.
387
00:19:48,219 --> 00:19:50,612
I've had the privilege of
seeing that my entire life.
388
00:19:50,787 --> 00:19:52,876
Every man in our family
has succeeded as a king.
389
00:19:54,791 --> 00:19:58,359
That's what I want for
you, son. To be a king.
390
00:19:58,533 --> 00:19:59,534
Make sense?
391
00:19:59,709 --> 00:20:01,101
- Yeah.
- Good.
392
00:20:01,188 --> 00:20:02,668
What did you want to talk to me about?
393
00:20:04,714 --> 00:20:05,976
I'm good.
394
00:20:09,980 --> 00:20:13,026
Getting in with the Franklins
can help Eve's Crown.
395
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,203
Yeah, but nominating you
for a membership so soon?
396
00:20:16,290 --> 00:20:18,902
This is Leah's first Graceties
meeting as chapter president.
397
00:20:18,989 --> 00:20:21,731
Her mom is the GOAT, so
she has a lot to prove.
398
00:20:21,818 --> 00:20:23,689
Well, I just need to show her
399
00:20:23,776 --> 00:20:25,996
that I'm a serious businesswoman,
400
00:20:26,170 --> 00:20:28,041
not some ratchet-ass chick from Boston.
401
00:20:28,215 --> 00:20:30,348
Yeah, but you are.
402
00:20:30,522 --> 00:20:31,915
Got it honest, too.
403
00:20:33,830 --> 00:20:37,050
And it's not just about business.
404
00:20:37,137 --> 00:20:39,879
No, these women are activists
in white gloves, honey.
405
00:20:40,010 --> 00:20:43,056
That's what I'm about...
uplifting the culture.
406
00:20:43,143 --> 00:20:44,666
That's why I took out all those loans
407
00:20:44,841 --> 00:20:46,190
just to be here this summer.
408
00:20:46,277 --> 00:20:47,931
I can't go back to selling product
409
00:20:48,105 --> 00:20:49,889
out the trunk of my
Camry, that's for sure.
410
00:20:50,063 --> 00:20:53,066
- A package?
- Ooh, I bet you that witch Leah sent a horse head.
411
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,374
You're silly.
412
00:20:56,504 --> 00:20:57,723
What is it?
413
00:20:59,856 --> 00:21:01,814
I just got invited to a party tonight.
414
00:21:01,988 --> 00:21:03,033
Oh!
415
00:21:03,163 --> 00:21:04,599
Let me see that.
416
00:21:06,036 --> 00:21:07,646
Oh!
417
00:21:07,733 --> 00:21:09,691
A Tyrique Chapman party.
418
00:21:09,866 --> 00:21:11,650
You see, Nikki's already
out making friends.
419
00:21:11,737 --> 00:21:12,999
I think you need to do the same.
420
00:21:13,086 --> 00:21:15,393
The kind with "benefits."
421
00:21:16,829 --> 00:21:18,091
What? You know, I might be gray,
422
00:21:18,265 --> 00:21:20,224
but I still got a fire in the furnace.
423
00:21:20,311 --> 00:21:21,573
I just need you to nominate me.
424
00:21:23,270 --> 00:21:24,750
Please?
425
00:21:24,924 --> 00:21:25,924
Fine. You win. You always do.
426
00:21:26,012 --> 00:21:27,622
Yes! Thank you!
427
00:21:27,753 --> 00:21:30,060
- You know, it is time.
- Yes.
428
00:21:30,147 --> 00:21:33,715
17 years since you let somebody
touch that thang since Nate.
429
00:21:33,846 --> 00:21:35,805
- Okay...
- Girl, you gotta clear them cobwebs out.
430
00:21:35,892 --> 00:21:37,676
Clear them out, Mama.
431
00:21:37,763 --> 00:21:40,984
My... My cobwebs... leave them alone.
432
00:21:41,158 --> 00:21:43,116
I bet you she ain't got no cobwebs.
433
00:21:43,290 --> 00:21:44,290
You know I don't.
434
00:21:46,076 --> 00:21:48,208
? I-I'm trying to keep my distance ?
435
00:21:48,295 --> 00:21:50,907
? I only got time for my bread ?
436
00:21:50,994 --> 00:21:52,734
? Busy whippin' up in my kitchen ?
437
00:21:52,909 --> 00:21:55,085
? 'Cause everybody
know that I'm up next ?
438
00:21:55,215 --> 00:21:57,261
? Soon as I move a little different ?
439
00:21:57,348 --> 00:21:59,567
? Everybody tryna do my dance ?
440
00:21:59,654 --> 00:22:01,961
- Yo, you came!
- Hi.
441
00:22:02,092 --> 00:22:04,659
'Sup, girl? Hi.
442
00:22:04,834 --> 00:22:06,748
Wait. Hold on, hold on, hold on.
443
00:22:06,879 --> 00:22:09,142
Hey, yo, Q. Come here.
444
00:22:09,316 --> 00:22:10,578
I'm trying to hook you up with a little
445
00:22:10,752 --> 00:22:11,797
extracurricular activity this summer.
446
00:22:11,971 --> 00:22:14,104
- No, no.
- Hey, you came.
447
00:22:14,278 --> 00:22:17,020
? Flow, flow, flow, flow ?
448
00:22:17,107 --> 00:22:19,152
? I know how to make the cash flow ?
449
00:22:19,326 --> 00:22:21,154
? Ca-Ca-Cash flow ?
450
00:22:28,945 --> 00:22:33,123
? I take my time, I'm finessing ?
451
00:22:33,297 --> 00:22:38,041
? Can't get too high, out the question ?
452
00:22:38,128 --> 00:22:42,306
? I keep all them guessing ?
453
00:22:42,393 --> 00:22:46,049
? Give me all my blessings ?
454
00:22:46,136 --> 00:22:48,747
? She been waiting, I been taking long ?
455
00:22:48,834 --> 00:22:50,923
? She just wanna hear me sing my song ?
456
00:22:51,010 --> 00:22:53,012
? She been living life faster ?
457
00:22:53,143 --> 00:22:54,144
? I been working, tryna take it slow ?
458
00:22:54,318 --> 00:22:56,146
I can buy my own shoes.
459
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,017
Can I at least get you a drink?
460
00:22:58,148 --> 00:22:59,149
? Can't get too high, out the question ?
461
00:22:59,323 --> 00:23:00,498
Sure.
462
00:23:10,073 --> 00:23:12,292
Taylor!
463
00:23:12,466 --> 00:23:15,513
Taylor!
464
00:23:15,643 --> 00:23:18,298
Taylor! Taylor!
465
00:23:18,472 --> 00:23:19,778
Taylor!
466
00:23:19,865 --> 00:23:20,953
What the hell just happened?!
467
00:23:21,084 --> 00:23:22,955
Oh, my God! I don't know!
468
00:23:23,042 --> 00:23:25,001
We were arguing, and she was drunk...
469
00:23:25,175 --> 00:23:26,350
Taylor!
470
00:23:26,524 --> 00:23:28,091
Help! Help!
471
00:23:33,444 --> 00:23:35,228
So, you're a shoe-sending
kind of brother?
472
00:23:35,402 --> 00:23:37,361
Not really.
473
00:23:37,448 --> 00:23:40,059
I just thought you needed a
better intro to the Bluffs.
474
00:23:40,190 --> 00:23:43,541
And especially if you're
trying to join the Graceties.
475
00:23:43,628 --> 00:23:47,240
All I can say is... don't poke the bear.
476
00:23:47,414 --> 00:23:48,502
Leah can be tough.
477
00:23:48,589 --> 00:23:50,156
I can handle my own.
478
00:23:51,897 --> 00:23:53,246
Yeah, I got no doubt about that.
479
00:23:53,420 --> 00:23:55,118
I don't summer in the Bluffs.
480
00:23:55,292 --> 00:23:57,468
I grew up about two
houses down from here.
481
00:23:57,642 --> 00:23:58,817
The small one on the corner.
482
00:23:58,991 --> 00:24:01,211
My father worked for the man
483
00:24:01,385 --> 00:24:02,777
who put me through boarding school,
484
00:24:02,952 --> 00:24:04,475
then the Ivy League.
485
00:24:04,649 --> 00:24:06,346
And now I own the construction company.
486
00:24:06,433 --> 00:24:08,261
So you're trying to
be my fairy godfather?
487
00:24:08,435 --> 00:24:10,089
Somebody's gotta get
you ready for the ball.
488
00:24:10,220 --> 00:24:12,613
? 'Cause if it's really
real, if it's really real ?
489
00:24:12,700 --> 00:24:15,790
? Then tell me how you
feel, tell me how you feel ?
490
00:24:15,877 --> 00:24:19,446
? You asked me what I care so much for ?
491
00:24:19,620 --> 00:24:22,449
? 'Cause, girl, that's
what I'm here for ?
492
00:24:22,580 --> 00:24:24,234
? 'Cause, girl, that's
what I'm here for ?
493
00:24:26,366 --> 00:24:27,759
Mnh-mnh.
494
00:24:30,675 --> 00:24:32,546
Oh, it's my...
495
00:24:32,633 --> 00:24:33,808
Nikki?
496
00:24:40,511 --> 00:24:42,121
Oh, my God.
497
00:24:42,295 --> 00:24:43,601
- I'm just so happy you guys are okay.
- Nikki.
498
00:24:43,688 --> 00:24:44,688
You okay, baby?
499
00:24:46,347 --> 00:24:47,648
They got her out. Taylor's alive.
500
00:24:47,822 --> 00:24:49,302
Are you okay?
501
00:24:49,476 --> 00:24:52,044
Officer, is there any news on Taylor?
502
00:24:52,131 --> 00:24:53,698
Miss Woods has been
rushed to St. Mary's,
503
00:24:53,828 --> 00:24:56,527
but our main focus now is
on how the accident happened.
504
00:24:56,701 --> 00:24:57,919
A Nikki Vaughn said that Lauren
505
00:24:58,050 --> 00:24:59,617
was with Taylor right before the fall,
506
00:24:59,704 --> 00:25:01,401
so we need to take both girls
to the station for questioning.
507
00:25:01,488 --> 00:25:03,055
I was nowhere near her when it happened,
508
00:25:03,142 --> 00:25:04,926
and that Nikki girl,
she's drunk as hell.
509
00:25:05,101 --> 00:25:08,104
- My daughter does not drink.
- Smell her breath.
510
00:25:08,191 --> 00:25:10,845
I'm Leah Franklin-Dupont, and
my daughter's not going anywhere.
511
00:25:10,976 --> 00:25:12,847
Well, neither is mine.
512
00:25:12,978 --> 00:25:14,588
- Drunk?!
- I had one drink!
513
00:25:15,776 --> 00:25:16,895
What's going on?
514
00:25:17,069 --> 00:25:18,679
Nikki is lit.
515
00:25:18,766 --> 00:25:20,725
Cops almost arrested her
for underage drinking.
516
00:25:20,899 --> 00:25:22,422
You're lucky that girl's not dead.
517
00:25:22,509 --> 00:25:23,509
Were you smoking weed again, too?
518
00:25:23,554 --> 00:25:25,338
What? No!
519
00:25:25,512 --> 00:25:28,776
We had to beg and pray to
get you a diversion program
520
00:25:28,863 --> 00:25:31,997
instead of jail time. One
whiff of tonight's mess,
521
00:25:32,171 --> 00:25:33,651
that judge could put you
all the way behind bars,
522
00:25:33,738 --> 00:25:35,566
and I don't have the right skin color
523
00:25:35,740 --> 00:25:37,481
or bank account to get you out.
524
00:25:37,568 --> 00:25:38,786
You're grounded.
525
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,659
Oh, we trying to act like a mom now?
526
00:25:41,746 --> 00:25:43,139
You've always been so thirsty.
527
00:25:43,226 --> 00:25:45,054
All right, now. Slow
your roll, baby girl.
528
00:25:46,751 --> 00:25:48,231
You're obsessed with
getting in with these people,
529
00:25:48,405 --> 00:25:49,797
just like you were
obsessed with putting me
530
00:25:49,971 --> 00:25:51,321
in some private school with people
531
00:25:51,408 --> 00:25:54,498
who are nothing like me,
who look nothing like me.
532
00:25:54,585 --> 00:25:56,935
Well, maybe it's on you why
I was drinking and smoking.
533
00:26:03,463 --> 00:26:04,943
The whole point of being grounded
534
00:26:05,117 --> 00:26:08,120
is that I stay in my room, at home.
535
00:26:08,207 --> 00:26:10,209
Sit up straight. Fix your face.
536
00:26:10,340 --> 00:26:12,559
I'm trying to show you something.
537
00:26:12,733 --> 00:26:14,779
All right.
538
00:26:14,909 --> 00:26:16,998
So, when they call for
noms, I'll say your name.
539
00:26:17,173 --> 00:26:18,826
You're gonna get some shady looks,
540
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:20,611
and then the interview
process will start.
541
00:26:22,003 --> 00:26:25,137
As your outgoing chapter president,
542
00:26:25,224 --> 00:26:27,792
I would like to call
the meeting to order
543
00:26:27,879 --> 00:26:32,797
and officially pass the torch
to your next chapter president.
544
00:26:32,971 --> 00:26:34,407
She's a legacy member.
545
00:26:34,581 --> 00:26:36,583
Her mother, Rose Franklin,
546
00:26:36,757 --> 00:26:40,500
was this chapter's
most revered president.
547
00:26:40,587 --> 00:26:43,634
I give you Leah Franklin-Dupont.
548
00:26:49,466 --> 00:26:52,991
I'd like to start with a moment of
silence for Taylor Woods' family.
549
00:26:53,078 --> 00:26:55,602
Her mother is a part of
our special sisterhood
550
00:26:55,776 --> 00:26:57,430
that we all cherish and love.
551
00:26:57,604 --> 00:27:00,955
And as we say, "Many are
called, but few are chosen."
552
00:27:01,086 --> 00:27:04,045
Our sisterhood is sacred.
553
00:27:04,176 --> 00:27:06,526
For 100 years, The
Kingship held the line
554
00:27:06,613 --> 00:27:08,441
in the African American community.
555
00:27:08,615 --> 00:27:12,141
When no one appears
to be watching, we are.
556
00:27:14,099 --> 00:27:16,884
Inductees, step forward, please.
557
00:27:21,759 --> 00:27:23,282
Out of the night that covers me,
558
00:27:23,456 --> 00:27:25,023
black as the pit from pole to pole...
559
00:27:25,197 --> 00:27:29,549
I thank whatever gods may
be for my unconquerable soul.
560
00:27:29,636 --> 00:27:30,985
In the fell clutch of circumstance,
561
00:27:31,072 --> 00:27:32,857
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
562
00:27:32,987 --> 00:27:34,989
Under the bludgeoning of chance,
563
00:27:35,076 --> 00:27:37,775
my head is bloody, but unbowed.
564
00:27:37,862 --> 00:27:40,125
It matters not how straight the gate,
565
00:27:40,299 --> 00:27:42,040
how charged with punishments the scroll.
566
00:27:42,127 --> 00:27:43,650
I am the master of my fate.
567
00:27:43,824 --> 00:27:46,218
I am the captain of my soul.
568
00:27:46,305 --> 00:27:48,481
I nominate Angela Vaughn.
569
00:27:48,568 --> 00:27:52,659
Ms. Vaughn, I was surprised
to hear your nomination.
570
00:27:52,790 --> 00:27:54,792
We don't know very much about you.
571
00:27:54,879 --> 00:27:56,097
I'm from Boston.
572
00:27:56,272 --> 00:27:58,622
My mother's name was Evelyn Vaughn,
573
00:27:58,709 --> 00:28:01,059
and she was the smartest
woman I've ever known.
574
00:28:01,146 --> 00:28:02,887
Evelyn Vaughn.
575
00:28:03,061 --> 00:28:04,889
What did your mother do for a living?
576
00:28:05,019 --> 00:28:08,327
She was... a businesswoman.
577
00:28:08,458 --> 00:28:11,939
She would summer here in the mid-'80s.
578
00:28:12,113 --> 00:28:15,029
Now that she's gone, I
am following her dream,
579
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,467
which has become my dream, too.
580
00:28:17,554 --> 00:28:20,687
Membership in this organization
would help with that,
581
00:28:20,818 --> 00:28:23,777
and I would be honored
to be in this sisterhood.
582
00:28:23,864 --> 00:28:25,170
Thank you.
583
00:28:25,177 --> 00:28:29,877
All the women that were
interviewed are under consideration.
584
00:28:29,964 --> 00:28:33,185
Uh, but you'll need the vote
of two-thirds of the membership,
585
00:28:33,272 --> 00:28:35,622
which will happen at the
Grand Illumination Ball
586
00:28:35,796 --> 00:28:37,624
at the end of the summer.
587
00:28:37,755 --> 00:28:40,627
Now, until then, we're
gonna be watching you,
588
00:28:40,801 --> 00:28:42,107
seeing who you are.
589
00:28:42,281 --> 00:28:44,109
You know, seeing what
you bring to the table.
590
00:28:44,283 --> 00:28:46,111
But the first event of the season
591
00:28:46,285 --> 00:28:48,940
will be our annual
mother-daughter fashion show.
592
00:28:49,027 --> 00:28:50,855
So, who can help with glam?
593
00:28:51,029 --> 00:28:53,640
Oh. That is my lane. I can do...
594
00:28:53,814 --> 00:28:56,034
Traci, why don't you handle glam?
595
00:28:56,121 --> 00:28:59,255
Ms. Vaughn, you could assist
with food and beverages.
596
00:29:01,605 --> 00:29:03,868
Snacks? You want me on snacks?
597
00:29:03,955 --> 00:29:07,045
Well, there's no task too
small for the sisterhood, right?
598
00:29:07,219 --> 00:29:08,829
Meeting adjourned.
599
00:29:15,836 --> 00:29:17,925
? I been keeping things
in the shadow of my mind ?
600
00:29:18,056 --> 00:29:21,059
? For some time, for a little too long ?
601
00:29:21,233 --> 00:29:23,714
? Let nobody in, don't
know what ya gonna find ?
602
00:29:23,844 --> 00:29:26,020
? Even if I did, wouldn't stay long ?
603
00:29:26,107 --> 00:29:28,849
? 'Cause I got a garden of secrets ?
604
00:29:28,980 --> 00:29:30,851
? That I been keepin' ?
605
00:29:33,419 --> 00:29:34,812
Ohh!
606
00:29:34,899 --> 00:29:36,640
Thought you were taking
Nik to dinner to talk.
607
00:29:36,727 --> 00:29:38,642
Yeah, I thought I'd wash
that wig first, girl.
608
00:29:38,816 --> 00:29:41,862
- This salt air water ain't no joke.
- Yeah.
609
00:29:41,949 --> 00:29:43,299
You haven't made a homemade batch
610
00:29:43,429 --> 00:29:45,475
of your conditioner in a hot minute.
611
00:29:45,649 --> 00:29:47,172
Yeah.
612
00:29:47,303 --> 00:29:51,045
Guess I just wanted to be close
to Mama after that meeting.
613
00:29:51,132 --> 00:29:53,613
Nikki told me you lied about Eve.
614
00:29:56,094 --> 00:30:01,447
I just wanted those women to see
how special Eve's Crown can be.
615
00:30:01,534 --> 00:30:03,580
But when I saw Nikki's face after...
616
00:30:06,974 --> 00:30:08,759
Hey, Nik.
617
00:30:08,846 --> 00:30:11,196
Can we talk?
618
00:30:11,327 --> 00:30:13,851
About how you're getting
faded in the kitchen
619
00:30:13,938 --> 00:30:16,462
after yelling at me for
a few shots of C�roc?
620
00:30:16,636 --> 00:30:19,857
I am grown. You are not.
621
00:30:19,944 --> 00:30:21,946
? But who is there for me ?
622
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:23,817
? When I could use a
shoulder to cry on? ?
623
00:30:26,298 --> 00:30:30,781
Maybe you were right about how
this place is making me feel.
624
00:30:30,911 --> 00:30:34,698
But everything I'm doing...
everything is still for you.
625
00:30:34,785 --> 00:30:38,179
When that last breath
left my mother's body,
626
00:30:38,354 --> 00:30:42,488
I promised myself that I
would be a better one to you.
627
00:30:42,662 --> 00:30:44,011
I'd really like for you to come
628
00:30:44,142 --> 00:30:47,841
to the mother-daughter
fundraiser with me tomorrow night.
629
00:30:48,015 --> 00:30:50,670
Well, I'm still grounded, so
it's not like I have a choice.
630
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,649
Ah.
631
00:31:26,837 --> 00:31:29,318
You know, your mom thinks
I'm the bad influence.
632
00:31:29,492 --> 00:31:32,756
I promise, I will tell everybody.
633
00:31:32,886 --> 00:31:34,932
All right.
634
00:31:35,019 --> 00:31:36,368
Come here.
635
00:31:43,593 --> 00:31:45,203
This looks amazing.
636
00:31:45,377 --> 00:31:47,988
Not a good look for the
chapter president to be late.
637
00:31:48,162 --> 00:31:50,991
This is your first event,
and all eyes are on you.
638
00:31:51,165 --> 00:31:52,645
Mama Liv, is this how
you're gonna treat me
639
00:31:52,776 --> 00:31:54,386
my entire term as president?
640
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:56,780
Is this how you plan
to lead the Graceties?
641
00:31:56,867 --> 00:31:58,172
Because this certainly isn't the way
642
00:31:58,259 --> 00:31:59,783
your mother would have done it.
643
00:31:59,870 --> 00:32:05,092
This organization has worked
too hard to earn our 40 acres
644
00:32:05,223 --> 00:32:07,660
that were promised and never delivered.
645
00:32:07,791 --> 00:32:12,578
And we will stop anything
that threatens to undermine
646
00:32:12,752 --> 00:32:14,101
what we're trying to build here.
647
00:32:14,232 --> 00:32:18,671
Now, that Angela Vaughn woman...
648
00:32:18,802 --> 00:32:21,108
is a disrupter.
649
00:32:21,239 --> 00:32:27,811
And her family has a long,
dark history on this island.
650
00:32:27,898 --> 00:32:29,813
Now, can you take care of it?
651
00:32:29,900 --> 00:32:33,686
Or do I need to call your
father to handle it for you?
652
00:32:39,039 --> 00:32:41,041
- She looks good.
- Right?
653
00:32:41,215 --> 00:32:43,609
Your skills are insane.
654
00:32:43,783 --> 00:32:46,830
Like, you better get
these hands insured, bitch.
655
00:32:46,917 --> 00:32:48,440
What's going on here?
656
00:32:48,614 --> 00:32:50,964
She did that. That's all.
657
00:32:52,488 --> 00:32:53,924
We were supposed to have a top stylist.
658
00:32:54,054 --> 00:32:56,666
Well, you got one. Me.
659
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,232
Apparently, your stylist fell through,
660
00:32:58,319 --> 00:33:00,278
and instead of staying on snack duty,
661
00:33:00,452 --> 00:33:03,368
letting this whole
event fail, I stepped up.
662
00:33:03,499 --> 00:33:05,239
'Cause that's what real sistahs do.
663
00:33:05,326 --> 00:33:07,807
Well, this is a Graceties
event, so don't embarrass me.
664
00:33:07,981 --> 00:33:08,982
Or yourself.
665
00:33:12,508 --> 00:33:15,511
All right, everybody,
let's get this show started.
666
00:33:15,641 --> 00:33:17,513
Styled by Eve's Crown.
667
00:33:18,949 --> 00:33:21,168
? Yeah, where my bad girls at? ?
668
00:33:21,299 --> 00:33:23,649
? Where my bad girls at? ?
669
00:33:23,823 --> 00:33:25,085
? Super bad body ?
670
00:33:25,172 --> 00:33:26,347
? Face like a goddess ?
671
00:33:26,522 --> 00:33:28,045
? When it come to bad bad's ?
672
00:33:28,132 --> 00:33:30,090
? I'm the hottest ?
? Super bad body ?
673
00:33:30,177 --> 00:33:31,352
? Face like a goddess ?
674
00:33:31,527 --> 00:33:32,963
? When it come to bad bad's ?
675
00:33:33,093 --> 00:33:34,355
? I'm the hottest ?
676
00:33:34,530 --> 00:33:36,183
Looks like Wakanda came to the Bluffs.
677
00:33:36,314 --> 00:33:38,969
Not Wakanda... Eve's Crown.
678
00:33:39,099 --> 00:33:40,099
? Super bad body ?
679
00:33:40,231 --> 00:33:41,624
? Face like a goddess ?
680
00:33:41,711 --> 00:33:43,016
? When it come to bad bad's ?
681
00:33:43,103 --> 00:33:44,103
? I'm the hottest ?
682
00:33:44,235 --> 00:33:46,063
? Hey, yeah ?
683
00:33:46,237 --> 00:33:47,237
? I'm a bad girl ?
684
00:33:47,238 --> 00:33:48,500
? I be doing bad tings ?
685
00:33:48,674 --> 00:33:49,675
? Don't even worry 'bout it ?
686
00:33:49,849 --> 00:33:51,938
? Papi, I'm a bad dream ?
687
00:33:52,025 --> 00:33:53,984
? See the way I bounce it up
and down just like a trampoline ?
688
00:33:54,158 --> 00:33:55,768
? It's gon' take a lot for
you to keep up with my energy ?
689
00:33:55,855 --> 00:33:57,378
? Yeah ?
690
00:33:57,553 --> 00:34:00,120
? Had to, had to look back ?
691
00:34:00,294 --> 00:34:01,948
? Had to, had to look back ?
692
00:34:02,122 --> 00:34:03,950
? See the way I bounce it up
and down just like a trampoline ?
693
00:34:04,037 --> 00:34:06,126
You wanted them to see how
special Eve's Crown could be.
694
00:34:06,300 --> 00:34:07,998
They're seeing it, baby.
695
00:34:08,128 --> 00:34:09,173
? Face like a goddess ?
696
00:34:09,347 --> 00:34:10,783
? When it come to bad bad's ?
697
00:34:10,914 --> 00:34:11,914
? I'm the hottest ?
698
00:34:11,915 --> 00:34:13,003
? Super bad body ?
699
00:34:13,133 --> 00:34:14,308
? Face like a goddess ?
700
00:34:14,395 --> 00:34:15,919
? When it come to bad bad's ?
701
00:34:16,006 --> 00:34:17,006
? I'm the hottest ?
702
00:34:17,007 --> 00:34:19,096
? Super bad body ?
? Face like a goddess ?
703
00:34:19,097 --> 00:34:20,096
You are wasted.
704
00:34:20,097 --> 00:34:23,709
Taylor! Taylor!
705
00:34:26,016 --> 00:34:28,140
Are you okay?
706
00:34:28,314 --> 00:34:29,400
Lauren, you're...
707
00:34:29,401 --> 00:34:30,643
- What?
- Hey.
708
00:34:31,717 --> 00:34:34,590
Look, I know we're not really...
709
00:34:34,720 --> 00:34:37,810
- Don't touch me.
- ... friends or anything,
710
00:34:37,941 --> 00:34:40,813
but, uh, I... I saw
the two of you together.
711
00:34:40,944 --> 00:34:42,249
What?
712
00:34:48,386 --> 00:34:49,779
Where'd you get that?
713
00:34:49,953 --> 00:34:52,695
Uh, Taylor must have put
it in my bag, you know?
714
00:34:52,782 --> 00:34:55,349
Maybe she wanted someone
to know the truth.
715
00:34:55,436 --> 00:34:56,829
So you don't have to hide. I... I can...
716
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,702
No, what do you... what
do you want me to do?
717
00:34:59,789 --> 00:35:01,399
Huh?
718
00:35:01,573 --> 00:35:03,227
Y... you want me to around
and slap pronouns on my chest?
719
00:35:03,401 --> 00:35:06,186
- Well, we don't get to do that here.
- Shh. Be quiet.
720
00:35:06,273 --> 00:35:08,493
- Look, I sat by my grandmother's bed...
- Ugh.
721
00:35:08,624 --> 00:35:09,973
... waiting for her to wake up,
722
00:35:10,060 --> 00:35:12,279
and she was the only one
who really knew me, so...
723
00:35:12,410 --> 00:35:14,151
But lying to the police about
being with her that night
724
00:35:14,238 --> 00:35:16,066
is worse than lying about who you are.
725
00:35:16,153 --> 00:35:17,633
So...
726
00:35:17,763 --> 00:35:20,984
You better keep your mouth shut.
727
00:35:21,158 --> 00:35:22,159
- Lauren.
- I'm sorry.
728
00:35:22,333 --> 00:35:24,204
What's going on?
729
00:35:24,378 --> 00:35:26,598
Uh, M... Mom, she...
she keeps threatening...
730
00:35:26,685 --> 00:35:28,034
- threatening me.
- Threatening you?
731
00:35:28,208 --> 00:35:30,167
What is with you and your family?
732
00:35:30,254 --> 00:35:31,647
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
733
00:35:31,777 --> 00:35:33,779
You got some nerve.
734
00:35:33,953 --> 00:35:35,041
Leah, you know what?
735
00:35:35,215 --> 00:35:36,869
I saved you tonight.
736
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,784
This victory is mine, not yours.
737
00:35:38,871 --> 00:35:41,744
But you still haven't said thank you.
738
00:35:41,831 --> 00:35:44,964
- Act like you were raised right.
- Raised right?
739
00:35:49,099 --> 00:35:51,623
Why don't we turn that
mirror around on you?
740
00:35:51,797 --> 00:35:55,627
What now, Leah? Geez. Ever since
I got here, you've been on me,
741
00:35:55,714 --> 00:35:57,194
judging me for everything I do.
742
00:35:57,281 --> 00:35:59,022
- What...
- Because you've been lying!
743
00:35:59,109 --> 00:36:00,632
Your mother never summered here.
744
00:36:00,806 --> 00:36:03,200
She was a maid.
745
00:36:03,287 --> 00:36:06,507
You trying to tear me down
in front of all these people?
746
00:36:06,682 --> 00:36:08,901
Does it make you feel good?
747
00:36:09,032 --> 00:36:11,904
Yeah, my mother was a
maid, and I know who I am.
748
00:36:12,035 --> 00:36:13,950
I know my worth.
749
00:36:14,124 --> 00:36:17,040
I know that you're hiding
the truth about your mother.
750
00:36:17,294 --> 00:36:21,341
Yeah, Evelyn Vaughn...
she was a maid here,
751
00:36:21,472 --> 00:36:24,344
but she was also arrested
752
00:36:24,431 --> 00:36:27,521
for intent to distribute
over in Edgartown.
753
00:36:27,608 --> 00:36:30,220
Oh, yeah, she was peddling
it out of her makeshift salon.
754
00:36:32,178 --> 00:36:34,137
So you can try to twist
this any way you want to
755
00:36:34,224 --> 00:36:36,966
and try to make it seem
like I am mistreating you.
756
00:36:37,140 --> 00:36:39,533
But we all know that you've been lying
757
00:36:39,620 --> 00:36:41,318
to gain access into this club.
758
00:36:41,405 --> 00:36:44,103
No. It's... I...
759
00:36:44,190 --> 00:36:46,105
It's not true. I...
760
00:37:06,952 --> 00:37:09,346
I assume that the request to meet
761
00:37:09,433 --> 00:37:11,609
meant that your tantrum was done.
762
00:37:11,783 --> 00:37:13,437
I tore someone down today
763
00:37:13,611 --> 00:37:15,874
out of the belief that I was doing good,
764
00:37:16,048 --> 00:37:18,268
but I don't think my
ends justified my means.
765
00:37:18,442 --> 00:37:21,227
And that made me think about
you and all that you've done.
766
00:37:21,401 --> 00:37:23,360
And I will not stand for it.
767
00:37:23,447 --> 00:37:25,275
You see, you may be the patriarch now,
768
00:37:25,449 --> 00:37:29,018
but I am the heir apparent.
769
00:37:29,148 --> 00:37:31,368
So, I'm taking over the company.
770
00:37:35,154 --> 00:37:37,374
Wait for it, Daddy. Wait for it.
771
00:37:37,461 --> 00:37:39,028
You're retiring early.
772
00:37:41,291 --> 00:37:42,596
And why would I agree to that?
773
00:37:42,683 --> 00:37:45,251
I have a dossier filled
with your dirty deeds.
774
00:37:45,382 --> 00:37:49,647
I mean, I'm sure the feds would
love to investigate your deals
775
00:37:49,821 --> 00:37:52,258
with just one phone call from me.
776
00:37:52,389 --> 00:37:54,086
I cut the legs off your precious table.
777
00:37:54,260 --> 00:37:55,348
I-I fixed the incline.
778
00:37:55,435 --> 00:37:57,829
Uh-huh.
779
00:37:58,003 --> 00:38:00,179
You know, ever since I was little,
780
00:38:00,266 --> 00:38:03,835
all I ever wanted from
you was your respect.
781
00:38:03,966 --> 00:38:07,970
You have my love. Respect is earned.
782
00:38:08,144 --> 00:38:12,670
Well, you asked me to
find a seat at your table.
783
00:38:12,844 --> 00:38:14,672
- Mm-hmm.
- And I found one.
784
00:38:14,846 --> 00:38:17,675
Yours.
785
00:38:17,762 --> 00:38:21,505
So, I'm gonna move to be
named head of this company,
786
00:38:21,635 --> 00:38:23,681
because it's not just about the money.
787
00:38:23,855 --> 00:38:25,683
It's about building up Black folks.
788
00:38:25,857 --> 00:38:27,076
Ah.
789
00:38:27,206 --> 00:38:29,121
You think you're different,
790
00:38:29,208 --> 00:38:33,125
but you're just as addicted
to money and power as I am.
791
00:38:33,212 --> 00:38:34,866
I mean, my blood runs
through your veins.
792
00:38:34,997 --> 00:38:38,348
But you win. Tonight.
793
00:38:38,522 --> 00:38:40,350
I'm just better at this than you are.
794
00:38:40,524 --> 00:38:42,221
Enjoy the rest of your summer, Daddy.
795
00:38:42,308 --> 00:38:44,310
But it won't be in this room.
796
00:38:51,100 --> 00:38:52,579
All right.
797
00:38:52,753 --> 00:38:54,886
Here are all the
documents from her case.
798
00:38:55,060 --> 00:38:56,235
Thank you.
799
00:38:56,322 --> 00:38:57,454
I know you had to call
in a favor for this.
800
00:38:57,541 --> 00:38:59,282
Perk of being a D.A. Okay?
801
00:38:59,369 --> 00:39:01,458
I have to have this back
to the station by morning.
802
00:39:01,545 --> 00:39:03,373
- Thank you.
- All right.
803
00:39:03,460 --> 00:39:06,115
Eve never touched a
drug a day in her life.
804
00:39:06,202 --> 00:39:07,681
Damn near disowned me
when I got hooked up
805
00:39:07,768 --> 00:39:09,292
with a dealer back in the '80s.
806
00:39:11,337 --> 00:39:13,383
Oh, my God.
807
00:39:13,557 --> 00:39:15,428
Y'all, come here.
808
00:39:15,559 --> 00:39:18,344
Teddy, tell them I didn't
sell drugs in the shop!
809
00:39:18,475 --> 00:39:21,043
It's gonna be okay, but
you have to listen to me.
810
00:39:38,147 --> 00:39:40,192
Teddy Franklin is my father.
811
00:39:41,802 --> 00:39:44,762
No. No, she would've told me.
812
00:39:44,849 --> 00:39:47,765
But she didn't, and you
two were like white on rice.
813
00:39:47,852 --> 00:39:49,723
We gotta start asking why.
814
00:39:49,810 --> 00:39:52,726
I mean, we just watched him shut her up.
815
00:39:52,813 --> 00:39:54,903
Mama Eve hid this building from me
816
00:39:54,990 --> 00:39:56,905
until right before she died,
817
00:39:56,992 --> 00:39:59,342
'cause she wanted me to come here
818
00:39:59,429 --> 00:40:01,735
and find out what he did to her.
819
00:40:01,910 --> 00:40:03,737
That's exactly what I'm gonna do.
820
00:40:09,439 --> 00:40:12,181
Thought you were gonna be at
the office late for a meeting.
821
00:40:12,311 --> 00:40:16,185
I was. With my father.
822
00:40:16,315 --> 00:40:18,665
Turns out, he's retiring early.
823
00:40:18,839 --> 00:40:21,581
- Your father's retiring?
- Mm-hmm.
824
00:40:21,668 --> 00:40:26,978
And I'm gonna be named
chairwoman of Franklin Holdings.
825
00:40:27,109 --> 00:40:29,981
I'm gonna control all of it.
826
00:40:30,112 --> 00:40:33,419
Well, I guess
congratulations are in order.
827
00:40:33,593 --> 00:40:35,639
Mrs. Franklin-Dupont?
828
00:40:35,813 --> 00:40:38,294
Ms. Vaughn is here to retrieve her wig.
829
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,612
I hear you wanted to
pick the wig up yourself.
830
00:40:52,699 --> 00:40:54,266
It costs a lot to make.
831
00:40:54,353 --> 00:40:55,833
I don't have money to just throw away.
832
00:40:56,007 --> 00:40:58,444
Well, I'm glad you stopped by.
833
00:40:58,575 --> 00:41:01,360
I wanted to talk about
what happened earlier.
834
00:41:01,534 --> 00:41:05,277
I'm not in the business of
tearing down Black woman.
835
00:41:05,451 --> 00:41:09,020
I'm actually in the business
of building up our sisters.
836
00:41:09,151 --> 00:41:11,588
Hell, I want to build a whole community,
837
00:41:11,675 --> 00:41:16,245
because that's what being
a Gracetie means to me.
838
00:41:16,419 --> 00:41:20,075
We do the same thing, just differently.
839
00:41:20,249 --> 00:41:22,251
We're two sides of the same coin.
840
00:41:22,425 --> 00:41:26,385
Two very different
sides of the same coin.
841
00:41:26,472 --> 00:41:28,692
Because of the amount of
money in our bank accounts?
842
00:41:28,866 --> 00:41:32,261
I'm starting to get
the rules around here.
843
00:41:32,348 --> 00:41:35,699
To be honest with you,
from where I stand,
844
00:41:35,873 --> 00:41:37,614
you're a slave to them.
845
00:41:37,701 --> 00:41:40,269
I'm not a slave to anything.
846
00:41:40,443 --> 00:41:42,619
But you humiliated me,
847
00:41:42,706 --> 00:41:45,100
all because you were so desperate
848
00:41:45,274 --> 00:41:47,624
to serve this lifestyle.
849
00:41:47,711 --> 00:41:50,409
Maybe you the real "maid" up in here.
850
00:41:50,496 --> 00:41:52,498
My mother left me one thing.
851
00:41:52,629 --> 00:41:57,329
The one thing she had is that old
boarding house down on Delois Street.
852
00:41:57,503 --> 00:41:58,765
You know it?
853
00:41:58,939 --> 00:42:01,029
My family used to own it.
854
00:42:01,116 --> 00:42:03,292
Come see about me.
855
00:42:03,422 --> 00:42:05,859
Eve's Crown can hook up those dry ends.
856
00:42:16,957 --> 00:42:18,307
Daddy, who's that girl?
857
00:42:18,481 --> 00:42:21,136
No one you need to concern
yourself with, Leah.
858
00:42:22,528 --> 00:42:24,530
Angie!
859
00:42:49,947 --> 00:42:52,906
Got to secure the crown, right, Mama?
860
00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:02,000
