See this, Dele?

That's me and Max
on our honeymoon.

Aw, you used to be
very beautiful, Granny Dottie.

What are you trying to say?

That you have always
been very beautiful.

Good save.

No, it wasn't.

I didn't know
you played football.

Started varsity
as a sophomore.

I almost sacked a guy
who almost went on

to play semi-pro
Canadian football.

Cool.

Where is this?

Ah, that's our
old lake house. Aw.

Spent every summer there.

Why are you so red?

You look like
a hot dog.

'Cause Granny Dottie sent us
outside without any sunscreen.

Hey, it was the '70s.

There was plenty of ozone
to go around.

That's where my dad
taught me how to fish.

I got my
first kiss there.

Was it with the fish?

It was Sarah Palmer.
We both had braces.

Kiss didn't end till my dad
pried us apart

with a
Swiss Army knife.

Is that Christina and Douglas?

No, actually, that's Christina
and that's Douglas.

Oh.

You have any
old photo albums?

Of course.
Well, you should bust them out.

No, thank you.

Come on, there's nothing
to be embarrassed about.

Look, here's my naked phase
when I was three.

Aw, you had such a cute
little heinie.

(laughs) Still does.

I do not want

to look back
at any of my phases.

I'm sure Dele
would love to see

some pictures
from your childhood.

I'm sure he would also love
to go to the school dance,

but neither one of those things
are going to happen.

Come on, don't you want to hear
your mom's stories?

Not if she doesn't
want to share them.

And I do not.

But you have wondered.
Of course.

Well, you see that?

The kid wants to know about you. Enough.

Dele, go to your room.
Yes, Mum.

My fault. Sorry, bud.

I'll see you at dinner.

("Ifanla" by Sola Akingbola
playing)

All right,
if there is nothing else,

meeting adjourned.

Oh, before I forget,
our Walmart rep

gave me two front row tickets
to Celtics-Pistons on Friday.

How exciting.

Douglas, you've been
on that account.

I thought maybe
you'd like to come.

How exciting
for Douglas.

Friday? I can't.
I have a date.

Well, you know what? You've been
putting in the hours.

Take your bus driver lady
to a ball game

and, here, have a couple
$20 beers on me.

Mm-mm. Mm-mm. Mm-mm.

Mm-mm. Mm-mm.
What "mm-mm"? What?
What's wrong?

Olivia and I broke up.

She took that bus
and ran right over his heart.

She hurt my baby.

Call me
old-fashioned,

but I hope she dies
in a fire.

Can we just
talk about work?

Well, that's, uh, too bad.

Boy, you get busy
for a few weeks,

you-you miss all the news.

This was
three months ago.

But your platitude still stands.

Well, I'm sorry, buddy.

It's not a big deal.

Is the meeting over?

Yeah. I'll see
you guys later.

Uh, where did we land
on the tickets?

Knock yourself out.

Oh, my goodness.

Thank you so much
for thinking of me.

I'm so glad you're dating again.

You took that breakup
pretty hard.

You did?
He did.

Big-time.
DOUGLAS: I was told

the meeting was adjourned.

Can I go back to work, please?

Very good. Stay focused.
What did I tell you at dinner?

(sighs) "Make yourself
into a man worthy of love,

and love
will find you."

I wrote that one down
as soon as you said it.

You were there, too?

Oh, yeah, we all went.

This one turns into quite a poet
after a few glasses of wine.

Guilty.
(laughs)

Well, it's good somebody
was there for you.

Oh, honey, I know how you feel.

You spend a couple of months
in St. Barts to decompress,

you come home and,
all of a sudden,

your kid's graduating
high school.

I mean, you can't beat yourself
up, you needed the break.

I wasn't on vacation,
I've been working.

There you go. Bury the guilt.

Are you wearing the cologne
I sent? Remember,

if the judge
likes what he smells,

he will like what he hears.

Her son?
The lawyer.

Ooh.
Now, run me through
your closing argument.

No, no, no.

First,
you cite precedent,

and then you attack
the plaintiff's character.

This is basic stuff.
Do not be stupid.

She loves him so much.

Okay,
put the children on.

Hello, my babies.

Granny is coming
to see you soon,

and she's going to get you
in the tickle machine,

and she's going to
tickle you

and tickle you

and tickle you.

Night-night, my cuddle bugs.

(kissing)
No, I love you more.

(kissing)

What?

Just wondering where
we could buy a tickle machine.

I've never seen
this side of you.

It is wonderful.
(chuckles)

Yes. I used to think
I didn't like children.

Turns out,
I just didn't like my own.

I'm glad you and your son
are talking again.

And I bet those kids are glad
to have their grandma back.

Especially since he told them
I was dead. (laughs)

What?

We were fighting.
You say things.

Did they have questions
when you came back to life?

They know better than to ask.
It is none of their business.

So the kids
have to say goodnight

to the ghost of Grandma Kemi?

ABISHOLA:
Nigerians don't like

to share their personal lives
with their children.

Mm-hmm. You have to remain infallible.

Once you show them
you are human,

you have lost all authority.

So how do they learn
from your mistakes?

What mistakes?
What mistakes?

Never mind.
My father was just like you,

completely closed off.

For years, all I knew about him

was that he grunted
and hated tartar sauce.

Well, elders choose to pass on
what they think is important.

Hmm.
Perhaps condiments and coughing
was all he wanted you to know.

He didn't even tell me
when he was diagnosed

with prostate cancer.

Oh, that's terrible.
Sorry, Gloria.

(sighs) All I'm saying is, talk
to your children while you can.

Funmbi, when was the last time
you had your prostate checked?

Pass the phone to your wife,
I will tell her what to do.

(whispers): Thank you, Gloria.

Don't thank me.

I did fall asleep eventually.
The melatonin helped.

Thank you for the suggestion.
(stammers)

I did not know you were
having trouble sleeping.

Do you also not know
I am on the phone?

Sorry.

I have the same problem.
As soon as I lie down,

it is like a faucet
in the back of my throat.

Mm. That may be
postnasal drip.

We'll get you a humidifier
and prop you up on a pillow.

Excuse me,
are you my friend Abeni,

who is spending a dollar
a minute just to speak to me?

No.
Then stop talking.

Sorry.

At least with the lack of sleep,

I have almost finished
this month's book.

I agree it is fantastic.

I never considered

what life would be like
as the wife of a time traveler.

Oh, Kemi read that.
She said that...

Abeni, let us talk
another time.

I am being spied on.

I did not know you were
in a book club.

That must be a nice way
to keep in touch

with your friends in Nigeria.

That shirt still has
a stain on it.

I know,

and I've tried everything.

I'm going to have to
throw it out.

Nonsense. Mix lemon juice
with water, add a pinch of salt,

spray the shirt,
leave it in the sun

for an hour.
It will be as good as new.

Thank you, Mummy.

You are so full of

wonderful knowledge.
Who taught you that?

Who cares who taught me.
It will get out the stain.

Of course.

I feel like I am living
with Barbara Walters.

Hey.
Hey.

So... (sighs)

Sup?

Not much.

You know, when I say "sup"
to you, I really mean it.

And I really mean it
when I say "not much."

I am sorry
about your breakup.

I'm fine. Good.

Good, good, good.

You know who's
not good? The Tigers.

I can't believe some
of the moves they're making.

It's like they want to lose.
That's what Goodwin said.

You talk baseball
with Goodwin?

It's our thing now.
I got him into it.

Thought it was our thing,
but... whatevs.

You're gonna be okay.
You're gonna meet the right one.

I know.

Cool. Cool beans.

Huh?

You know, like, tight.
Everything's tight.

How many of these
do you want done?

Uh, I want to thread
the whole fleet,

do a test run
in full production mode.

Okay, well, I'm almost done
with this one.

I just got to keep
this yarn from splitting.

(screams)

Whoa! Turn it off!
(grunts)

Oh, God, oh, God,
oh, God, oh, God.
Put pressure on it!

Hold your hand above your head.

Is it dripping?

Okay. Oh, my God.

We got to get you
to the hospital. Come on.

Okay. I'll call Goodwin.

We're not
calling Goodwin!

I'm gonna look.
You don't need to do that.

Just breathe,
we're almost there.

Ah, I looked.

I said breathe. Relax.

When you yell at someone
to relax, they don't relax.

Hey, it's gonna be okay.

You don't know that.
Yes, I do.

You remember that time
at the lake house

when me and my friends
were going off the rope swing,

and then you tried
and let go too early,

and you hit your head
on a rock?

No, I don't
remember that at all.

Yeah, you were
kind of unconscious.

The point is,
I got you through it.

I'm your big brother.
I'm gonna take care of you.

Okay.

You're not gonna lose
the finger, you hear me?

Yeah.

If you do,

it's an automatic
conversation starter.

That's true.

There's this girl
at my gym with one leg,

and every time
she hops onto that treadmill,

I want to know her story.

I'm gonna look again.

I just told you
not to look at it.

Oh, you could see the bone.
You can't see the bone.

Yes, I can.
Yeah, you can see the bone.

Here are my
family photos.

I'm willing to answer questions
and share stories.

Really?

Yes. I'm your mother.
You should know about me.

Where is this
coming from?

Do you want to see
the photos or not?

Is that you?

Yes.

I had a few awkward years
as a teenager.

I think it just
took some time

for you to grow
into your head.

Dele.

They used to call me
"head of the class."

That's clever,
but very mean.

Wow. Look how young
you and Dad are.

Mm. I was not born
an adult, you know.

I didn't know Dad
had a motorcycle.

Oh, that was mine.

I have so many questions.

It had 600 cc's,

and no,
you cannot have one.

Whose wedding
is this?

My cousin. Mm.

That's where
your father and I met.

He was so handsome

and such a good dancer.

I knew I wanted
to meet him.

So you made
the first move?

Do not talk
to your mother like that.

Your father was
a very respectful young man.

He asked my father's permission
before he took me out on a date.

You're sitting on his lap
in this one.

Oh.

Isn't this
the same wedding?

Yes.

Where you just met?

I think we have
shared enough.

This is a strange feeling.
What is?

You're not just my mother.
You're a person.

I prefer to just
be your mother.

Let's go back to that.

Too late.

It's gonna be fine.
Abishola's on her way.

She doesn't need to do that.
I'm feeling much better.

No, I'm not. Okay.

Sit.

(grunts)

Hi. You might know my wife,
Abishola Adebambo.

She's a nurse in cardiology.

She told me to tell you
to bump us up.

Is the person
you're with experiencing

chest pains or in labor?

No.
Have a seat.

Listen, lady, that's my
little brother over there,

a-and his finger's
damn near falling off.

I don't care what it costs,
I want him seen right now,

you hear me? Thank you.

Security, stand by.

I'm sitting. I'm sitting.

You're gonna be okay.
I'm such an idiot.

I can't even make a sock
without mutilating myself.

Look, accidents happen.
It's just bad luck.

I'll never play
banjo again.

You never
played before.

Well, now it's
off the table. Oh.

Bob.
There you are.

Wife of mine.

ABISHOLA:
Are you okay, Douglas?

No.
Why are you still waiting?

Her.

I guess if you're not
losing an organ...

Why is my brother-in-law
sitting in the waiting room

with a grade three
laceration?

We're swamped down here.

If he even loses
a fingernail

due to your negligence,

I'll report you
to the review board.

Review board.

She's good.

(overlapping chatter)
Success! No fingers
left behind.

(cheering)

Bring it in, buddy.

I didn't expect everybody
to be here.

All right, let's give him
some room.

No, no, it's nice.

Enough, he needs
to rest. Come.

We brought ice cream.
Would you like some?

Sounds good, thanks.

I-I think everyone
would like ice cream.

You're on heavy
pain medication.

You might have some trouble
with food.

Good point. Just a beer.

I think everyone
would like a beer.

I got him some ice.

Ooh, thank you.
We got you some ice.

So, what happened, sweetie?

I was just being careless.
Classic Douglas.

Enough of that,
it was an accident.

I don't want
to say it again.

Okay.
You have spent

hour after hour working
on that warehouse floor.

Hell, you've been coming in on
the weekends just to learn the

new machines. If this happened
to somebody as skilled as you,

it could've happened to anybody.

Thanks, Bob.
You're welcome.

We're all just glad
you're okay. Mm.

I love you, buddy.

I love you, too.

(choking up): Did you see
that the Lions, they...

they fired their
offensive coordinator?

They had to do something.
The guy's running

a West Coast offense
without the personnel.

They really do
love each other.

Guess you have to lose a finger

to receive some affection
around here. (chuckles)

Honey, give it a rest.

You will be fine.
I still have

the scar on my hand from when
I was a little girl.

I got it playing
in the tool shed

at my grandfather's farm.

I remember that.

I did not know
great-grandfather had a farm.

He grew cassava.

We would drive up and help him
harvest it by hand.

Working on your
grandfather's farm

must've been a very
special time for you.

You know, my Uncle Willy
had a sweet corn farm.

Bob, please.
My mother is speaking.

All right.

Well, in August,
we would all

pile in the car,
and then we...

(baseball playing on TV)

You starting
to like baseball?

No, not really.

It grows on you.

Okay.

So, this spring training game
does not even count?

Nope. Basically,
a big practice.

And because you were at work,
the game already happened.

But instead of just looking up
who won, you are watching it.

I'm a complicated man.

(sighs) That is one way
to put it.

(phone chimes)

Aw, my brother says
his date went well.

Mm. That is wonderful.
Yeah, hang on,

let me write him back.

Thumbs up. Party hat.

Good for him.
After ending a relationship,

it can be hard
to try again.

Tell me about it.
After my divorce,

I had trouble moving on.

You are being modest.

No man who can flirt
with a woman

while wearing
a hospital gown

has trouble
with the ladies.
(chuckles)

I'm telling you.
It went Lorraine,

a lot of frozen pizzas
for dinner, and then you.

Aw, you love me
more than pizza.

(chuckles)

What about you? A lot of
microwave jollof after Tayo?

Uh, I had a boyfriend
or two.

Was it "a" or two?

One was very serious.
His name was Ke...

You know what? I think
we shared enough for now.

Okay.
Okay.
