All language subtitles for Rain for Christmas 2024 1080p WEB-DL HEVC x265 BONE

I thought I told you to
call me before you land.

I just got in the car, big sis.

Plus, I know why you're calling.

Well, how about you stop
making me waste my minutes

and just come home for
Christmas like we asked.

First off, we're not in
middle school anymore

when we had to
wait until 9:00 PM

for our minutes to be free.

Second, I told you this
isn't a good year for me.

You guys could've easily come
to Atlanta this Christmas.

Now you know that Mama and
Daddy is not leaving Grandpa

at the nursing
home for Christmas.

Well, Chelsea's parents are
coming here for Christmas.

Chelsea.

You mean the Chelsea that
you claim is the one,

but you haven't brought
her home to meet us yet?

That Chelsea?

Listen, I promise
you will meet her.

You will come there
after the holidays.

Yeah, whatever.

I love you. Tell Grandpa
I said Merry Christmas.

- Love you too.
- Bye.

Sorry about that.

Oh, all good, boss. Spending
the holidays at home?

Yeah, my family wants
me to come home,

but I'm supposed to be meeting

my girlfriend's
people this Christmas.

Oh. Meeting the in-laws, huh?

Man, I remember when I
finally met my mother-in-law.

Boy, I was mad as hell, boy.

- Wait, what? Why?
- Shoulda gone for the mama.

She was fine as hell, man.
Know what I'm saying, brother?

- Who, the mama?
- Hell yeah.

Shoot. What, uh,
what Smokey say?

The older the berry,
the sweeter the juice?

Nah, man. It's
blacker, not older.

Oh. Well, yo, she Black.

She fine than a
motherfucker too, boy.

Boy, she you get them yams, boy.

Mm. Right.

Okay.

Well, I'm so sorry to
hear that, Mr. Wells,

but I would be very happy to
take care of that for you.

Of course. You
don't have to worry.

My firm will handle everything.

Okay. Well, Merry Christmas
to you as well. Bye.

Hey. What happened?

So that company I've been
trying to get for months

finally reached back out.

Apparently the firm
they were using before

doesn't wanna work
over the holidays.

So you're gonna be
working over the holidays?

Yeah, I can work in
between. It's no big deal.

Well, did you get a chance
to read my script? Babe?

- What?
- Did you read my script?

Oh. I'm so sorry.

I've been busy.

Seriously?
- What?

My parents just text

and said they're not
coming for Christmas.

Dang. I know you were looking
forward to seeing them.

Yeah, well, probably would've
been a distraction anyway.

Well, Armani called
me again disappointed.

- Who?
- My sister, Armani.

Oh, right. Yes. Your sister.

Yeah. I'm missing yet another
Watkins family Christmas.

How about we go to visit
my family for Christmas?

Uh, really? I still
have so much work to do.

You think we should?

Well, I mean your parents
aren't coming anymore

and we're getting
pretty serious.

I think it's time
you met my family.

Okay, well, I guess I'll
just bring my laptop

and work from there.

All right then. We'll go
to Houston for Christmas.

I just hope the
weather's better there

and it doesn't
rain for Christmas.

Don't be nervous.
- I'm not nervous.

They will love you. I promise.

Well, just don't leave me alone.

Baby. You'll be fine.

I promise

They gon' love you,
girl. You cute.

They gon' like you.
They gon' like you.

How, how y'all doing?
Happy holidays.

- Uh, you too.
- Thank you.

So, uh, y'all, y'all live
here, y'all visiting?

Yeah, we're here
visiting my parents.

It's her first time here.

Oh, okay. Where y'all from?

Uh, we're from Atlanta.

Yo, y'all know Tyler Perry?

No of him, but never
met him before.

Okay. Okay. I hear he got,
like, a studio on every block.

That's what they say.

Anyway, didn't you say that
it was the third to the left?

Uh, yes, ma'am. Right
there. Right there.

All right, bet.
Third to the left.

On my first ride today,
so we starting it off.

Hey. So, look.

I been trying to take my
little transportation business

a little more seriously, right?

My cousin got a lot. He said
I could use anything I want.

Look, that's where I got this.

So, look, take my card. My
number on there. Use it.

I'm doing two
rides for $20, bro.

You ain't even gotta go
through the app. Hit me up.

Hey. Yeah, y'all have a
good day. Merry Christmas.

Holler at your girl. I holler.

Now look what the wind
done blew in from ATL.

Hey, big sis.

Hey. Hey. You work with

Tyler Perry yet?

Why does everyone
keep asking me that?

Look, when you gon' put
your sister in the movie?

Uh, how about you
stop smoking that weed

and we'll talk about it.
- Hey, hey, hey. Shh, now.

Shoot. Look, y'all
got here early.

Yeah, those early
flights be the cheap.

Don't I know it.

Oh, and who do we have here?

This is my girlfriend Chelsea.

Chelsea, this is
my sister Armani.

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

Well, come on, 'cause
Mama just made breakfast.

I got it. Yeah.

Mama, guess who's here.

- Hey, Mom.
- My baby.

God has answered my
prayers. My baby is home.

Come on, Mom.
Don't start that.

Oh, what?

It's not like every day
that my son comes home

for the holidays.

It's not like when you were in
college and used to come home

and steal my groceries

and have me wash
your dirty underwear.

- Mom, chill.
- Oh, no. She not lying.

Especially about the
dirty underwear part.

Ha ha. Very funny.

Oh, I'm sorry. Um, this
is my girlfriend Chelsea.

Hi, Mrs. Watkins.

It's nice to meet you.

I've heard so much about you.

Oh, well, I'm sorry I
can't say the same, dear,

but my son is very
private that way.

- Right. Um, where's Dad?
- Oh, he's still sleeping.

Poor thing worked so many
hours just to make sure

that he could be off
until after the new year.

We didn't know you were coming.

Armani didn't tell you guys?

I mean, I didn't
wanna their hopes up

since you said you
weren't coming at first.

Well, Chelsea's parents
had a change of plan,

so I had the idea for us
to come here for Christmas.

Well, I'm just glad you're home.

So how was the flight?

Oh, it was pretty good. We
got bumped up to first class.

- What? Y'all fancy.
- Oh, Lord.

Mama, did you break a nail?

No, I'm outta pecans.

Armani, I thought I told
you to get some more.

Ooh. Mama, I am so sorry.

I forgot.

I can go get you some more.
You don't mind, do you, baby?

Oh, I don't wanna be in
your mom in Amara's way.

My name's Armani. Ar-ma-ni.

- My apologies.
- She'll be fine, dear.

You can help me in the kitchen

and we'll get to know
each other better.

Yeah, she can get to
know how to say my name.

Thank you so much and we'll
see you when you get back.

All right. All right, baby.
Have fun. Where are the keys?

Oh, they're over
there on the hook.

And we'll send you a
picture of the kind we need.

Okay.

So you're originally
from Atlanta?

Actually, no, I
just moved there.

I'm from Cincinnati, Ohio.

Oh, Cincinnati. How's the
weather there at this time?

Hey, you need to pay attention
to where you're going.

- I was backing out first.
- No, you weren't, actually.

You need to get off your phone

and pay attention to
what you're doing.

Ooh, you late. They
need to hit you.

Shush, you.

Rain, what?

I know I'm late. I'm sorry.

I was almost in a car accident.

- Oh, are you okay?
- Yes, I'm fine.

It was just some asshole
rushing in the parking lot.

Typical. Especially
around the holidays.

Well, listen, Mr. Watkins
is waiting on you

and you know he only
wants you tending to him.

So please don't make me
fire you for his sake.

I know. And I promise
I won't be late again.

- Okay.
- I'll get right on that.

Okay.

And I'll deal with you later.

Be nice. Be nice. Now what
were you showing me earlier?

I was showing you

- Stop it.
- Okay.

Good morning, Mr. Watkins.
How are you feeling today?

Hey, Rain. I'm good, baby.

I'm good.

I, uh, feeling
pretty good today.

I was just sitting here
thinking how nice it's gonna be

to spend holidays with
the family, you know?

- That's good.
- Yeah.

Thank you, baby. You know, you
sure remind me of my Grace.

Yes. You tell me all the time.

Yeah.

Oh, she was the most
beautiful woman in the world

till she went on to
be with the Lord.

I'm so sorry to hear that.

Oh, no, no, no.
Don't be, don't be.

She lived a beautiful
life, you know, and we,

we believed that life here on
Earth was temporary, you know.

What was important was
eternal life with the Lord.

Amen to that.

Yeah.

You know, Rain,

I would really like to
introduce you to my grandson.

He needs a good
woman in his life.

Mr. Watkins, are you
trying to play matchmaker?

I'm good. Men just haven't
been on my mind lately.

You, you, uh, you,

you like the ladies?

I mean, no judgment,
no judgment.

If that's what you into.

Different strokes for
different folks, you know?

No. No, sir. I, I like men.

Just haven't had the best of
luck with them, that's all.

So I'm just focusing on
myself for right now.

Okay. I understand that. I
understand that. All right.

I'm gonna go check
on Mrs. Turner

and then I'll be
back to check on you.

Okay, babe.

Ugh. What is
taking him so long?

- I'm back, Ma.
- Ooh, about time.

Lemme see. Ah, thank you.

Did he get the right kind?

Yes, Mama. I told you you
wasn't a complete idiot.

- Really?
- Just saying.

Did you get the coconut
oil I asked for?

- Yes, I did.
- Thank you.

Hey, Pop. Have
you met Chelsea?

Hey, son. Well, yeah, I did.
Pretty young thing there.

So, Miss Chelsea, can you cook?

See, my mama would
say that cooking

is the way to a man's heart.

Well, both of our jobs
are very demanding,

so she doesn't have
time to cook much.

Okay. So you're working now.

Whatever happened to you
wanting to become a filmmaker?

'Cause I really enjoyed
that indie film you did.

Oh, he's not wasting his
time with that anymore.

I think we're getting
a little too old

to be chasing pipe dreams.

I was talking to my
son, pretty lady. Son?

I still write from time to
time. It's more of a hobby now.

I just need to find
some inspiration.

A hobby. Interesting.

So how long are
you kids staying?

'Cause see, your mama and I,

we got used to y'all kids
not being around here

and we walk around
here butt naked

doing the freaky deaky.
- All right, Dad, chill.

That's not something
I wanna imagine.

Boy, please. How you think
you and your sister got here?

Back in the day, your
mama was fertile.

Got her pregnant
on the first try.

Bam. There goes Armani.

Anyway, are you even trying?

Because see, your mama and I,

we wanna have some grandkids
come over and visit

every now and again.

You not shooting
blanks, are you?

- Really, Pop?
- James, leave them alone.

You are gonna run them off.

The boy know I'm just
playing with him.

You do have juice in your cup,
right? You are a Watkins man.

Baby, please ignore your father.

You guys can go ahead
and put your stuff

in your old room, okay?

What are you hitting me for?

You need to be hitting your son

for bringing that bougie ass
girl home and she can't cook.

Be nice. Okay? Why you
gotta open your big mouth?

Mm, I'll open up
something else big

if you keep hitting
on me like that.

Oh, really?

You know I like that kinky shit.

You know I do too.

They all upstairs.

Let's go to the bedroom. But
you gotta, gotta keep quiet.

- Okay.
- No screaming.

- I promise.
- Okay.

- Okay.
- Ooh.

- Lemme get that belt.
- Oh, please do.

Oh, wow. They still
have my movie poster up.

Um, maybe we should get a hotel.

A hotel? Why?

Well, you know how I am
about where I lay my head

and you probably had all
kinds of girls in this bed.

All right, listen, I never
disrespected my parents' house.

I always went to
the lady's house.

- Seriously?
- Look, I'm joking, babe.

Relax. Don't act like that.

I just don't wanna
spend unnecessary money.

You act like I asked
you to pay for it.

Look, this bed is not big
enough for the both of us.

And quite frankly,

I don't feel comfortable
sleeping together

in your parents' house.

So where you gonna sleep?

You seriously wanna
sleep in separate rooms?

Do you not know who I am?

Fine, I'll just sleep
in the guest room

and I'll tell my mom to
get the bed ready for me.

- Thanks, baby.
- Yeah.

In the meantime, while we wait,

I'd like to go visit my grandpa.

Um, the pies are almost ready.

I was gonna take one over

to the nursing home
and see Grandpa.

Yeah, I was just
telling Chelsea that.

Oh. Well, I'll be

waiting downstairs.

All right.

See you in a minute.

Oh, Mrs. Turner,
that is beautiful.

- Miss Nita.
- Wow. What a pleasant surpri-

Malik Watkins, is that you?

- Hey, Miss Nita. Yes, ma'am.
- Oh. So good to see you.

And you came home for Christmas.

Oh, I know your mother's
heart is just melting.

Yes, she is.

This is my girlfriend Chelsea.

It's nice to meet you.

Armani. Now is that your
mother's famous pecan pie?

Yes, it is. I bought some for
the staff and for Grandpa.

Oh, my God. Yes. Well, he
is gonna love this surprise.

Babe, can you wait
out here with Armani?

I kinda want to go in myself

and surprise him and
make sure he's up.

Sure.

- So, how's everything?
- Everything's been good. Yes.

You know I just
finished law school.

I heard. I know your
mother is so proud of you.

Yes. I'm preparing
to take the bar exam.

Girl, you gon' do that.

Oh.

I'm just so sorry.
I'm so clumsy.

Um, no worries. Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

Seems like we keep
bumping into each other.

Malik. Boy, is that you?

- Yeah, Grandpa.
- Come on in here.

Right. Man, you done
got big. Looking good.

So you're the grandson
he's been talking about.

Yes, I am. And you are?

You don't recognize me? The
parking lot this morning.

You almost hit me with your car.

Oh, that was you?
I'm sorry about that.

- Well, seems like we're even.
- I didn't catch your name.

Um, Rain, this is
my grandson Malik.

Malik, this is Rain, my nurse.

It's nice to meet you, Rain.

Likewise.

Child, you need to
get that checked out.

What's wrong with your throat?

Hey, baby, I was just
about to come get you.

- Hey, Rain.
- Hey, Armani.

Mr. Watkins, I'm gonna
let you spend some time

with your family.

Oh, no, baby, you
don't have to go.

Plus, I still gotta
tell you my story.

You can tell me
all about it later.

Grandpa, I have someone
I want you to meet.

This is Chelsea.
- Hey, baby. How you-

Boy, is that your
mama's pecan pie?

Yes, it is, Grandpa.

And my favorite granddaughter.

Well, you know,
when you the oldest,

you always the favorite.

So, tell me, how did y'all meet?

Uh, California, three years ago.

Um, Oakland, not LA.

Everyone always
assumes Los Angeles

when you mention California.

Oh, do they now?

Um, Malik had an interview
there for something.

What was it again?

I was trying to pitch
one of my scripts.

Right.

So he was going on and
on about this film thing

and how slow it was.

So I told him about what I do

and how I could get him a
job at my marketing firm.

Oh. And how long have
you been doing that?

Mama.

It's been a little
over six years now.

It's very successful. And
Malik's always been so grateful.

I'm just glad he is over
this whole film dream.

Well, that was a wonderful
and beautiful story. Yeah.

But wait, Malik, are you
seriously trying to give up

on your film career?

I just don't have the
passion for it anymore, Mom.

After COVID hit it got
hard to pay the bills.

Hmm. I bet it did.

Well, if you say so. Well,
you ready for bed, dear?

Y-yeah, yeah, yeah, let's do it.

It's only like eight o'clock.

It's okay. Mind your business.

It's grown and sexy
over here. All right?

Well, we're gonna turn in.

I'll see y'all in the
morning, okay? Come on, baby.

I think they like
the story, right?

Um, y'all might
wanna go and shower.

Get that airport stink off you.

She's talking about you, not me.

- Yeah, yeah.
- All right, let's go.

Mm-hm, mm-hm. Goodnight.

It's not smelling first class.

Oh, damn. This some good shit.

What the hell?

Fuck. Shit.

What? What is it?

Chelsea. What, what's wrong?

- What happened?
- Baby, what's wrong?

The mirror.

What?

I was attacked.

Oh, hell no. What?

Why she got the mirror
turned around like that?

You can't have a mirror in
the room where you sleep.

Girl, you about to ruin my high.

Girl, I know you are
not smoking in my house.

Oh, no, ma'am. I was
smoking in the backyard.

Sweetheart, what are
you talking about?

Baby, the mirror.

Look, I cannot sleep in
this room with that mirror.

Oh, Lord.

Malik, you done brought a
crazy woman into this house.

- Dad, chill out, please.
- Boy.

Okay. Okay.

Chelsea, would you be okay
if you slept in a room

that didn't have any mirrors?

Yes, please. I just, I can't
be in this room anymore.

Okay, that settles it. You
can have Armani's room.

Right. Wait, what?

Um, are you sure? I don't
wanna put anyone out.

Yeah, Mama, are you sure?

'Cause she will
be putting me out.

Well, she is our guest, dear,

and we want her to be
comfortable, right?

But where am I
supposed to sleep?

The guest room.

Armani, please, for me.

Fine.

Okay, let's get some sleep.

Um, I'm not so sleepy anymore.

Oh, okay. Well, I'm up for it.

I'm sorry.

It's fine. Everything
will be fine.

Mom, you really need to
change out the mattress

in that guest bedroom.

- I'm sorry, dear, but...
- It was so uncomfortable.

Well, I'm glad you let our
guest stay in your room, so.

Good morning.

There he is. Now you
really slept in, huh?

It's only eight. Has
Chelsea come down yet?

No. She's probably still
sleeping in my comfortable bed.

- Armani, cut it out.
- Mama, no. Like-

Yes, Mr. Wells, I sent
over the first draft pitch

for review last night.

If you can, just take a look

and I'll continue
with your approval.

Okay, great. Thank you.

Good morning.

- Morning, baby.
- I'll see y'all later.

Bye, Mom.
- Oh, bye.

Well, good morning.

I see you're working
hard for the holidays.

Yeah, work doesn't stop
just because it's Christmas.

Well, are you hungry? Do
you want something to eat?

Oh, I'm very particular about
what I eat for breakfast.

Um, I can help you
make the plates, Mo-

Uh, uh, uh. I got you
covered right here.

All right. Here you go.

So you still eat bacon

or have you become
one of those vegans?

Um, he's trying to cut down
on the pork and red meat.

On his way to becoming
a vegetarian like me.

- Oh, really?
- I'm not quite there yet,

so I'll go ahead
and enjoy this food.

Go right ahead. Did you want
me to get you a plate, dear?

Um, maybe just some fruit.

Well, I've got plenty in the
fridge, so go help yourself.

Thanks.

Hey, after we finish eating,

I was thinking of heading
into town to explore

for a little while.

Is The Ultimate
Kitchen still open?

Oh, yeah.

I'll definitely
have to visit them.

We're gonna go get some
coffee. Do you need anything?

No. You guys go right
ahead and have some fun.

I still gotta get over to
your aunt and uncle's house

and help them prep
for Christmas.

Don't overwork yourself, Mom.

When I get back I need
to talk to you and Dad.

Oh, all right. See you soon.

You're not seriously going
to eat that, are you?

My mom cooked it.

Ugh.

- Hey, Mama.
- So it's all good?

It's all done. Oil
change is done.

Line was crazy,
but we got it done.

Thanks, Tyson. You've
always been my favorite son.

I know, I know.

Don't let your other kids
hear you saying that.

Malik? Malik Watkins?

- Um...
- Tyson. Tyson Gray.

No way. Bro. I didn't
even recognize you, bro.

That's that all
protein, no carbs diet.

That's amazing, man. This
is my girlfriend Chelsea.

- Hi, nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

So what you doing in Houston?
I ain't seen you in years.

You know, just in
town for the holidays.

Spending time with the
family and everything.

That's good, man.

I'm glad you can still come home

and you're not too busy
with your big time movies.

Nah, not that. I'm putting
that business degree to use.

I work for this financial
firm. That's how I met Chelsea.

Okay, okay. Good for you,
man. Hey, let's sit and talk.

We definitely gotta catch up.

Yeah, we do. Let's do it, man.

Got him.

So what does he want
to talk to us about?

What do you think, James?

He wants to ask for
your mother's ring.

Mm-mm. I, I just don't see
what he sees in that woman.

Now, see, I knew
you didn't like her.

Oh, it is not that
I don't like her.

She's a very attractive woman,
and successful, obviously.

But I don't recognize
Malik anymore.

I mean, when did he stop wanting
to write and direct movies?

I don't know.

I feel like he's trying
to change who he is

to please this bougie ass woman.

Yeah. See I thought he knew
who he was and what he wanted.

See, we Watkins men,

we take pride in the
foundation of family.

My mom and dad
laid it down for me

and I was blessed to find you.

I just, I just thought I had
done that for our children.

You have, honey. Malik is just
lost. He'll figure it out.

Yeah. Wait.

Um, all the children
are out of the house.

Mm-hm.

Now, how about you go and
put on that red leather

Mrs. Claus suit.

So you want me to
jingle your bells?

Oh, I want you to
do more than that.

And I'ma kiss your mistletoe.

Oh, my goodness.

Ho, ho, ho.

Back it up. Back it up.

Slay on my way.

- Hey, Rain.
- Hey, Tyson.

Have you met Malik and
his girlfriend yet?

Yes, I have actually. It's
nice to see y'all again.

Yeah, Rain takes care
of my grandfather

at the nursing home.

That's right. I just came
to get coffee for the staff.

Well, that's nice of you.

Rain, I know I'm gonna see
you at Ultimate Kitchen

for that karaoke night, right?

- Wait, they still do that.
- Man, every year.

Ain't too much
changed around here.

I'll be there.

Y'all should come out.
It's really a lot of fun.

I don't know about that.

It sounds like a great idea.

Okay, great.

Hey, come on.
It's gonna be fun.

You know I don't sing
in front of people.

So are we headed home?

No. I wanna go see my grandpa.

I still have a
lot of work to do.

What?

I don't get to come
home that often.

I don't wanna just sit in the
house all day while you work.

Well, you can go, babe.
I'm not stopping you.

What are you doing?

Giving you the keys
so you can drive home.

Here's the address. I'll
just Uber to see my grandpa.

Fine.

Ooh. Ow.

Lemme help you.

- Thank you.
- No problem.

Where's your girlfriend?

Um, she has some
work to finish up.

I wanna go see my grandpa, so
I told her I would just Uber.

Mm. I don't mind
giving you a ride.

I don't know. Can I trust
you? You did almost hit me.

That was you.

Look, do you want a ride or not?

Yes. I would appreciate that.

Thank you.

Mm-hm. That's what I thought.

Thank you.

So how long are you in Houston?

Just a couple days.

How long have you been
working with my grandpa?

For the last three years.
He's a joy to be around.

Always talking about your
family and his late wife.

Yeah, Granny G. I miss her.

I was always her
favorite grandchild.

Yeah? Don't let your
sister hear you say that.

You a writer?

Nah, not really, but
I'm a huge movie fanatic

and I've always
wanted to write one,

but didn't really
know where to start.

So I ordered this book.

Really? I'm a
screenwriter too.

I'm trying to do another film.

Wait, you have a film out?

That's amazing.
What's the name of it?

"The Ring Widow." It's a
thriller. It's on Tubi.

That's a huge accomplishment.

Not a lot of people
can say that.

Yeah. I wrote another script.

I need someone to read it and
gimme some honest feedback.

- I wouldn't mind reading it.
- Really?

Yes, of course.

But I am a huge movie critic,

so I'm definitely
gonna be honest.

I can appreciate honesty.

No, I'm glad that you
helping Aunt Lisa.

Her stuff wasn't
really good last year.

I thought it was okay.
She's getting better, so.

Well, that's 'cause
you helping her, Mama.

We gotta give her a chance.
Somehow she'll get it.

Hey. Back?

- Nope, just me.
- Oh. Where's Malik?

Um, he went to go
visit his grandfather.

And you didn't think
to go with him?

Well, I still have
a lot of work to do.

Plus, you know, the jet lag
is starting to get to me, so.

Girl, it's only an
hour difference.

So what did y'all do?

Uh, we went to the
Dandelion Cafe.

We ran into someone you went
to high school with, Armani.

Um, I think his name was Tyson.

Tyson? Tubby Tyson?

Armani, don't be rude.

No, Mama. I never
called him that.

That's what they
called him in school.

Oh, goodness. Yes, Tyson. We
haven't seen him in so long.

Honey, I can't find my belt.

Okay, I'm coming,
sweetie. Excuse me.

Hey, look, I'm really sorry
about taking over your room.

I asked Malik about
getting a hotel.

Yeah. That probably woulda
been a better fit for you.

It's fine.
- Why do you hate me so much?

I said it's fine.

Listen, the fact is
I'm with your brother

and I really don't care
if you like me or not.

Of course you do.

Because if you didn't, you
wouldn't be trying this hard.

My jacket.

So Mr. Watkins
had his medicine

and Mrs. Turner did as well,

so all we need to do now is...

Ooh, coffee. Nice.
And it's hot.

Yes. It's so cold out, I
figured we could all use some.

So sweet.

Uh, Malik, I see you're back.

Yes, ma'am. Gotta see
him as much as I can.

Hmm. Hey, girl.

So, um, where's the
snooty girlfriend?

I don't know. And it's
none of my business.

And none of yours
either, Miss Nosy.

What? Me, nosy? Never.

Girl.

I am so sorry for interrupting.

You not interrupting,
baby. Come on in.

Now I can finish telling
you about my Grace.

See, what Malik doesn't know

is that when I first
met his grandmother,

she was actually seeing someone.

Pops, you stole
Granny G from someone?

It wasn't like that.

That fool wasn't right
for her and she knew it.

But the first time I
ever put my eyes on her,

I knew she was perfect for me.

How did it happen?

Funny thing is it
almost didn't happen.

You see, I almost let
my fear get in the way

of what God had for me.

That woman made me feel
like I could do anything

that I put my mind to.

But at that time I
didn't even have a car.

So I would walk miles to get
to that cafe just to see her.

You know that place down
there that Mama G owns.

I didn't know that place
was open back then.

Yeah. Just under
a different name.

You know, it's nice
to have a place

that we could call our own.

I would walk there every
day just to say hi.

Never really had a real
conversation with her.

I was just waiting
on my opportunity.

- What a creep, Grandpa.
- Stop. It's romantic.

Yeah, maybe back then. In
2024, it's called stalking.

Well, I tell you what, it's
a good thing I was there.

I was down there one day
and they were arguing

and I had to stop that joker

from putting the
hands on your grandma.

Oh, my God.

You never told me
this story, Grandpa.

It wasn't my story to tell.

But after that I
went there every day

and I walked her home to
make sure she got there safe.

Until one day, a day
I'll never forget,

June 15, 1972,

we shared our first kiss.

That's beautiful, Mr. Watkins.

I'm glad to see that a love
like that still exists.

It absolutely does.

You just have to find
the right person.

Excuse me. Rain, Mrs. Turner
needs your assistance.

Okay, I'm coming.

That's okay. We'll talk
about it some more later.

Thank you. That was
a beautiful story.

You all right?

What? What's that look for?

Boy, you look like that girl
got your nose wide open.

She's beautiful though, huh?

Yeah, she got her head on
straight. She has a good job.

And she's got all her teeth.

Yeah, she's
definitely something.

Okay, but if I had known
I was gonna be doing

all of this, then we coulda
just had Christmas at my place.

- Who's Mom talking to?
- Uncle L Ray.

Where's Chelsea?

Probably somewhere
still in my room.

I'll go check on her.

Nuh-uh. Chelsea,
get down here, girl.

I coulda done that, Pop.

I know you could have. But
this is my house, remember?

I get to raise my voice.

Mm. It is time for me to

go back home.

It's okay, baby
girl. You good.

- Hey, are you still working?
- No. Not anymore.

Why are you still in the room

instead of out here
with the family?

Oh, 'cause she thinks
she too good for us.

That was your Uncle L Ray.

He insisted that I bring
that macaroni and cheese.

Thank you, Lord.

Now y'all know from last year,
Aunt Lisa's, that wasn't it.

Mm. At all.

I told Mama that earlier.

- So how's your grandfather?
- He's good.

He was telling Rain and
I stories about Granny G.

- Aw, how sweet.
- Rain? You were with Rain?

I wasn't with her.
She does work there.

She gave me a ride.

I thought you said you
were taking an Uber.

She offered and was
going there anyway.

I figured why waste money.

So what are your plans
while you're here?

I was thinking of going
to the Ultimate Kitchen

for Christmas karaoke night.

Wait, that's still a thing?

Of course that's still a thing.

The three of you should
go. That would be so fun.

I don't think I'm gonna make it.

I still have that deadline
for that pitch, so.

Baby, it's Christmas.
Work can wait.

These companies don't care
about it being Christmas,

and you know how
important my job is to me.

Fine. I guess we're
going without you.

All righty then.

Okay.

I'm really excited to try
all these Houston spots.

Okay. So where do you
think you're going-

- Hey, y'all.
- Hey.

Y'all finally made it.

I wasn't sure whether you
were gonna come or not.

Well, it's tradition.

I wanna do everything
while I'm in town.

Where's your girlfriend?

Ugh, she didn't wanna come.

She's too focused
on work right now.

Well, get ready to
sing and have some fun.

Yeah, if I get enough
drinks in me, I'll be ready.

What's going on, y'all?
What's good, bro?

Hey, what's up, Tyson?

You remember my
sister Armani, right?

Armani. It's been a long time.

Tyson. It sure has.

You looking good.

Thank you. You look good too.

I mean, you always
have, but you still do.

Look. Okay.

Anyways, Malik, you haven't
met the rest of the crew.

I know you remember Crystal.
She just moved here.

She works with me
at the nursing home.

And this is her
boyfriend Brandon.

- What's up, bro?
- Nice to meet you.

You know, I gotta say,
this place is pretty crazy.

I've never seen
anything like this.

Well, you know Houston.
We put on for our city.

- Yes. Right?
- And I am loving it.

So what's everybody
go-to karaoke song?

- Easy. "It's Christmas."
- That was fast.

We take our karaoke seriously.

- Right?
- What about you, Armani?

I mean, any other
time Beyonce, obvious.

But for the holidays,

"All I Want for
Christmas is You."

And what about you, Malik?

Um, I don't know.

What do you mean you don't know?

I mean, it's been a long
time since I've done this.

Oh, we could change
that tonight.

Right?

So, um, which one of
y'all wants to go next?

Well, I just went.

All right, all right, all
right Who's next, y'all?

Uh, Malik. Is that Malik
Watkins? Man, come on up here.

Y'all giving up for Malik.

Let's go, big dog.

Big dog.

Oh, y'all. Okay. I see
we got a couple's duet.

Oh, no, we're not a couple.

He's just my singing
partner for tonight.

Okay, girl. Just say that.

So what y'all gon' be singing?

Bet that. Okay.

Y'all go ahead and give
it up for Rain and Malik.

- You were incredible.
- Thank you.

Speaking of incredible,

I finally had a chance
to read your script.

Please tell me you're
gonna turn it into a movie.

- Did you like it?
- Like it? I loved it.

It was something so different.

I'm so tired of these
same old movies.

Like, nobody makes feel good
stories anymore. You know?

I feel that type of love
exists only in movies though.

I believe that type
of love still exists.

You just have to find it
with the right person.

Just like your grandparents.

I would love to experience
a love like that.

Me too.

Oh.

Bro, come on before I
throw up in Mama car.

I should go and make
sure she gets home safe

and get back to...

Get back to Chelsea?

Right. Get back to Chelsea.

Lemme know when you
make it home safe.

I will. Goodnight.

Really?

What? I didn't mean to cock
block you. I'm sorry. Come on.

- Seriously?
- I'm sorry.

No!

What? What is it?

It's gone. Everything is gone.

What did happen now?

What are you talking about?

Last night, I
finished everything.

I must've fallen asleep
and forgot to press save.

Oh, damn.

What am I gonna do?
I'm so confused.

I know I left my
laptop open last night.

I'm sorry, babe.

I came in here to
check on you last night

and I closed the laptop for you.

I didn't know you
hadn't saved your work.

- You idiot.
- Excuse me?

- How could you be so stupid?
- Oh, hell no, Malik.

She not about to be
talking to you like-

- I got this, Armani.
- Oh, boy.

Listen, I apologize for
messing with your computer,

but that doesn't give you
a right to disrespect me.

Especially in
front of my sister.

I have been working very hard

and you don't even seem to care.

Yeah, well, I can
say the same for you.

What is that supposed to mean?

I've sacrificed so much for you

to be the man you
wanted me to be.

I gave up my dreams for you,
to support you. It's Christmas.

This is the first
time meeting my family

and all you can do
is care about work.

I'm sorry I have my
priorities together.

Yeah, well, maybe
that's the problem.

We don't have the
same priorities.

Maybe you should go
stay at that hotel.

See, this is how
you get in time out.

'Cause you be putting all
kinda craziness on the TV.

Ain't nothing crazy about that.

I can watch what I wanna watch.

- Hey, Malik.
- Hey.

You okay?

Uh, nevermind. I'm
good. How's my grandpa?

He just went down for a nap.

Do you wanna come back
in, like, an hour?

Um, yeah, I'm, I'm sure I
could find something to do.

Um, I have an idea. I
could really use your help.

Unless you're too busy.

Not at all. What's up?

Well, every year I make
cookies for the homeless

shelter.

You wanna help me batch them?

- Okay, let's do it.
- All right.

I don't think I've laughed
like that in a long time.

Yeah, that was pretty fun.

It kinda sucks you have
to work on Christmas Eve.

Yeah, well, I don't mind.

It's not like I have any family

to spend Christmas with anyway.

- Why not?
- I grew up in foster care.

Moved around a lot.

After I graduated
from Hightower,

I went to community college
to get my basics out the way

and then transferred and
went to nursing school.

And now here I am.

Well, I think what
you're doing is amazing.

Excuse me.

I'm so sorry to interrupt.

I just thought you
might wanna know

that Mr. Watkins is awake now.

Okay, great. I guess
I can go see him now.

Mm-hm.

What?

Girl, you are falling for him.

No, I'm not. Plus,
he has a girlfriend.

Okay, but he's here with you.

Plus, I saw what
almost happened.

All y'all was missing
was some mistletoe.

Okay. I'm gonna
get back to work.

Mm-hm. You do that, ma'am.

Lovebirds.

Ooh, I'm glad today is over.

We did good, son. That's all
that matters. We did good.

And by the look
of these receipts.

Hey.

Armani. Hey, beautiful.

Hey, Mama G.

- You look beautiful.
- Thank you.

Glad you took me up on
my offer and, uh, met up.

Well, I had such a good
time the other night

I definitely wanted
to see you again.

What can I get for you, honey?

Um, I don't need anything.
Y'all closing up.

No, no, no. It's okay.

It's okay.

Um, maybe just a hot chocolate.

Okay. And how about you?
You want one too, son?

- Yes, ma'am.
- Coming right up.

Thank you.

Go get her. Get her.

So what are your
plans for Christmas?

Not much.

The, uh, the shop'll be closed,

but my mom's not too big on
celebrating since my dad passed.

Oh. I'm sorry to hear that.

It's all good. We're, uh,
we're getting through it.

- There you are.
- Thank you.

You're welcome.

So, Miss Armani,
what's up with you?

Um, well, I actually
just finished law school

and I'm preparing to
take the bar exam.

Wow. Check you out.

I'm scared of you.

Oh, you should be.

No, but for real.

I can definitely see you being
a badass district attorney.

Yeah, that's the plan, but...

I mean, I'm excited but
nervous at the same time.

Don't worry about that.
You gon' do great.

Right.

Son, something bothering you?

You done spent the
whole day here.

You running from something?

I don't know.

I'm really torn right now.
Chelsea and I had a big fight.

She's not really
engaging with the family.

She's so focused on
work it's ridiculous.

All I can tell you
is to pay attention

to what's right in front of you.

Maya Angelo said it best,

"When somebody shows you
who they are, believe 'em."

Now I'm not gonna be able to
tell you how to handle this.

This is a lesson you gon' have
to figure out on your own.

How did you know
Granny G was the one?

Like, at what
moment did you know?

Your grandmother
paid attention to me.

She knew when I was upset.
She knew how to make me laugh.

But most importantly,
she believed in me.

But how did you know?

One evening, I was taking
your grandmother on a date.

Anytime I went out with her,

I made sure I was a
perfect gentleman.

So I opened her car
door to let her in.

As I walked around
to the other side,

she opened my door for me.

You see, it's the simple things.

But that's when I knew

that she was gonna
be my Grace forever.

- Wow. That's when you knew?
- That's when I know.

So what time are you picking
me up for Christmas tomorrow?

I'll be here at 11:30.

Everyone is supposed
to come around noon.

Hey, Mr. Watkins.

I'm about to head
home for the night,

but I wanted to bring you
some cookies before I left.

Oh, thank you.

Malik helped me make 'em.

Really? Guess my grandson's
quite the help, huh?

Mm-hm.

Hey, Rain. What are your
plans for Christmas tomorrow?

No plans.

Sounds like you oughta spend
Christmas with us then.

That sounds like a great idea.

- I don't wanna intrude.
- Nonsense.

There's gonna be plenty
of food and plenty of fun.

You can ride with Malik and I
when he picks me up tomorrow.

Are you sure?

Positive. I'll
be here at 11:30.

Okay. I'll see y'all tomorrow.
Y'all have a good night.

Hey, Mom.

Hey, baby. You okay?

I'll be all right.
She still here?

No. She took an Uber. She
said she was going to a hotel.

Well, it's probably for the
best. Where is everyone?

Well, your dad's already asleep

and I don't know
where your sister is.

I told Grandpa I'd pick
him up at 11:30 tomorrow.

- Okay, sounds good.
- Yeah.

Oh, and he invited his nurse
Rain. Hope that's okay.

Oh, Rain. Now,
she's a lovely girl.

Got her head on straight too.

He's always wanted
you to meet her.

She'll be there tomorrow.

All right. Looking
forward to it.

All right, Pop.

Hey, y'all ain't got
the handle me like this.

I'm not no invalid.

Don't get zesty because
your grandson is here.

Lord, I can't believe your
daddy let you drive his car.

Y'all just hurry up
and get me to the food.

All right, Grandpa. We're gonna
get you to the food. Okay?

Thank you.

What? Is something on my face?

Nothing. Nothing at all.

- Hey, Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas. It
is chili out there.

Oh, yes.

Oh, y'all bought gifts? I
didn't get y'all nothing.

These are not for you.
These are for my nieces.

Merry Christmas, girls.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

So where do you want
me to put this food?

In the kitchen. Everything
is almost ready. Come on.

- All right.
- Let's go, babe.

So where is that nephew of mine?

Oh, he went to your dad. So
they should be here soon.

- Oh, okay.
- Wait, so you're telling me

we have to wait for them to eat?

Yeah, because I'm hungry.

Girl, hush. Don't act
like we don't feed y'all.

I mean, if you think about
it, you technically didn't

because you told us not
to spoil our appetite.

- Lisa, they can eat.
- They'll be all right.

Now y'all go into
the living room

and wait until
the food is ready.

They are so cute.

If it ain't my favorite brother.

L Ray, I'm your only brother.

Are you sure? Before Dad met
Mom, he was a rolling stone.

I'm just kidding. Hey, got
something for you over here.

You ain't gon' speak, L Ray?

Hey, sister-in-law.
I saw you yesterday.

And, babe, I already
gave your Christmas gift.

TMI.

Okay. I see you
got that good good.

Oh, yeah. It won't be a
Christmas without this.

Oh, now y'all know it's
too early for that.

Exactly.

Oh, it's five o'clock somewhere.

Merry Christmas, y'all.

Merry Christmas, baby.

Hey, butter head.

Uncle L Ray. When you
gonna stop calling me that?

Never. You gon' always
be my butter head.

Hey, bro, let's take this
outside to the backyard

and let the ladies do
their thing up in here.

All right, cool. Lead the way.

Boy, this your house.

Well, you on the way.

- Mm, yep. Fresh pecans.
- Yes.

- So how have you been?
- Girl, we've been all right.

I'm just so ready for Layla and
Lauren to go back to school,

'cause all they wanna do
is TikTok dances all day.

Oh, my God.

Well, just don't
rush it. Okay?

I am so glad the kids
are here for Christmas.

I mean, enjoy it while you can.

Because once they
leave for college,

it's hard to get
them to come home.

Aw. I know you're glad
that Malik is home.

So has he found love yet?

Well, he brought a girl home.

Oh, really?

But she is not right
for him at all.

And then they got into
this whole argument

and she left yesterday.
- An argument about what?

I don't know. Something
about her computer.

She was disrespectful,
I know that.

Oh, hell no.

But she left. I
mean, good riddance.

She's definitely not
Watkins wife material.

She was a pretty
young thing though.

Had a little dunk on her, but
she was stuck up and bougie.

Not right for Malik at all.

Well, I hate that for my nephew.

Yeah, me too. He'll
be all right though.

Just, uh, the right
one will come along.

Oh, yeah.

Leave me outside.

Girl, I can't wait
to like (indistinct).

Hey, everybody.
Merry Christmas.

Hey, everyone.

Y'all finally made it.

Sound like them right there.

- You remember Rain, right?
- Yes. Hey, beautiful.

Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.

Well, we have been waiting
for y'all to get here

so we can eat.

- Hey, Pop.
- What you say, son?

Oh, Merry Christmas to you.

Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.

- What's up, Daddy?
- Yeah, boy.

- Merry Christmas.
- Doing all right?

Yeah. I'm dead on.

- We good. We good.
- How you feeling?

I'm good. I'm good.
It's good to see y'all.

Good to see you too, man.

Malik, can you get
the door for me?

Yes, ma'am.

Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas back.

Merry Christmas, everybody.

Merry Christmas.

Tyson.

I hope you don't mind.
Malik invited me.

Oh, did he?

- These are for you.
- Thank you.

Oh, my God. Is
anyone else coming?

'Cause y'all really doing too
much. I'm just trying to eat.

Well, all righty then.

Y'all come on. Let's eat.

Let's eat, y'all.

All right. You ready, baby?

- Ready.
- Come on.

I can't believe you
came all the way

from the south side.

He invited me, so
I thought why not.

Lawrence Ray, I know you are
not trying to touch the food

without us praying first.

Oh, yes, I am. I'm hungry.

Okay, well, then let us pray.

Dear Heavenly Father, we come
to you now to say thank you

for this nourishing
meal you have before us.

Bless the hands that
have prepared it

and bless those that
are less fortunate.

- Amen.
- And, Father, we thank you

for bringing my
family here safely.

But most of all,

I thank you for bringing
my baby home for Christmas.

Amen.

Father, please
open my son's eyes

to what's right in front of him

because sometimes we
can't see the blessings

that you have for us, and God-

In Jesus name we pray.

Amen.

Look, you already blessed
the food and everything.

So say the other stuff
for your sister circle.

You old fool.

Hey, butter head. Can you
pass the mac and cheese?

Uncle L Ray, you
are embarrassing me.

Wait, who made the mac
and cheese this year?

Y'all wrong for that.
Why would y'all...

Y'all don't have
to do me like that?

No. Look, Auntie, it was
a little dry last year.

Oh, yes, it was.

Wait, wait. Why you
call her butter head?

Oh, no. You ain't gotta
ask him that. Mm-mm.

You wanna know why I call her
butter head? Tell you why.

'Cause when she's a little girl,
all she did was eat butter,

eat butter out the carton.

One day, she brought
her little ass over here

and got in my refrigerator
and got all the butter

all over her head and all
over her face and everywhere.

So ever since then I been
calling a butter head.

It took me a week

to get that butter
smell out of her hair.

- Mama.
- It's all harmless.

Oh, okay, okay, okay.

How about we tell some
embarrassing stories about

Malik?

Hey, leave me outta this.

I think I've embarrassed
myself enough this Christmas.

I would love to
hear some stories.

He tell you he used
to pee in the bed

till he was about six years old?

Ooh.

- Uncle L Ray. Really?
- Yeah, really?

The boy had a serious problem.

Oh, look. That's why Mama
had to watch 'em dirty draws.

- You grew out of it, right?
- Yes, I did.

All right, while y'all
having family time,

I'm just gonna go ahead and eat.

For only 30 cents a day.

Somebody feeds this baby.

He just went to
bed for the night.

Thank you so much
for inviting me

to spend Christmas with
you and your family.

I have never had a family
Christmas like that before.

I'm glad you enjoyed yourself.

Yeah. Your family seems
like a lot of fun.

Yes, they are. They can
be a bit crazy at times.

Yeah, but what's family
without a little crazy, right?

Right. Listen, Rain.

I don't know how you felt
the last couple days,

but this is the most fun
I've had in a long time.

- Really?
- Yes.

If you're interested, I
think maybe you and I should-

Merry Christmas, baby.

Chelsea? What are
you doing here?

I thought you'd be
back to Atlanta by now.

I'm so sorry, baby. I messed
up. And I see that now.

I just couldn't
leave without you.

I'll let you two talk.

Yes. Please give
us some privacy.

- How did you know I was here?
- I have your location.

I missed you, baby. And I
know I was being a bitch.

Your words, not mine.

Well, I just wanted
to come and apologize

and ask you for a second chance.

- What about work?
- I got it all done.

Now I can focus on
you and our holiday.

We can go back home
and get back to normal.

Hey, that was so beautiful,

but can I follow you outta here?

I was gonna reverse, but
I ain't got no insurance.

I'm good? All right.

That's so beautiful.

Come in.

Hey. You headed out?

Yeah, I'm gonna take an Uber
to the hotel to get Chelsea

and head to the airport.

Are you sure, Malik?

I mean, the connection

that you and Rain
made was undeniable.

Everybody saw it.

If you pick Chelsea,

you ain't gon' be able to
have no mirrors in your house.

Not funny.

It's a little funny.

But seriously, Mom and
Dad may sugarcoat it,

but you know I'ma
keep it real with you.

She said she's gonna work on it.

Yeah, but true love
is hard to come by.

Granny G and Pop's
story is one of a kind.

And Dad was lucky to find Mom.

So are you sure this
Chelsea girl is the one?

I wanna at least
give her a chance.

Okay. I just don't
want you to regret it.

I appreciate you looking
out, but I'm a big boy.

I'll be fine.

All right, big boy.

- Love you.
- Love you too.

- There he is.
- Gonna miss you.

All right, let us know
when you make it. Okay?

I will, Mom. Thanks
for everything, Pop.

You're welcome, son.

You just be sure to be safe

and have a fulfilling new year.

- Appreciate it.
- All right.

Love you guys.

- Love you too.
- Love you too.

You think he'll see the truth?

Yeah, he will.

I just hope it's
before it's too late.

Guess what?
- What?

We got one down and one to go.

Then it's back to
butt naked time.

Well, you know I love it.

- Wanna get started now?
- Oh, can we?

Armani. Girl, when you
leaving? I'ma help you pack.

Hey.

Hey, babe. Are
you on your way?

Yeah, I am.

Um, did you ever get a
chance to read my script?

Yeah, I did. It was great.

Really? What did
you like about it?

Everything. Somebody's
definitely gonna buy it.

You didn't read it, did you?

Okay. I'm sorry, baby.

But I'll read it.

I mean, isn't it just
a hobby now anyway?

Like, do I have to read it?

Why can't we just wait
for somebody to buy it

and turn it into a movie
and I'll watch the movie?

I'd rather be surprised anyway.

Really? You got me on pause?

I'm sorry, baby.

I need to respond to this email.

Why am I even trying?
You're never gonna change.

You don't appreciate
me or believe in me.

You sound ridiculous.

You know what? I'm not coming.

You can find your own way
to the airport. I'm done.

Malik. You can't be serious.

I am. I'll come get my
things after the new year.

Goodbye, Chelsea.

Hey, sir. Can you take me
to a different location?

Uh, yeah. You just gotta
update your address on the app.

But it's gonna cost you extra.

That's fine. You got it?

Got it.

Come on, Rain. Come on, Rain.

Rain.

What in the world?
Malik, what's going on?

I need to talk to
Rain. Where is she?

She's with your grandfather.

- Run, boy.
- Better go get that girl.

He's looking cute too.

He all right.

Hi, may I speak
to Devonte please?

You are speaking-
- Rain! Rain.

Malik, what are you doing here?

Son, is everything all right?

Everything is perfect, Grandpa.

Everything right here,
right now is perfect.

Malik, what's going on?
Shouldn't you be with Chelsea?

No. I'm right where I wanna
be. Right here with you.

Listen to me. I've never
met anyone like you, Rain.

From the moment we got
to know each other,

I realized how
incredible you are.

You see things in me that I
didn't even see in myself.

You helped me find my passion
and love for writing again.

My family loves you.
- Especially me.

Especially my grandpa.

You said that you
believe the type of love

my Granny G and Grandpa
had still exists

with the right person.

I believe you're the
right person for me.

I wanted to tell you that,

but Chelsea came and I
made the wrong decision.

Well, I'm not trying to
be anyone's second choice.

You're not. And I'm sorry
I made you feel that way.

I don't know what you
wanted for Christmas,

but all I wanted for
Christmas was you, Rain.

I love you.

- What do you say, sweetheart?
- Really, Mr. Watkins?

The man talking to you.

I love you too.

I been waiting on
this. 'Bout time.

I'ma y'all have your moment.

I was a little
worried for a second.

I was never worried.

Boy, this boy got Watkins blood
running through his veins.

Congratulations on
passing the bar.

Thank you.

Lemme see this ring on
your hand again, dear.

It's beautiful. I'm just
so happy for you both.

We're so happy too.

Oh, lemme see. Oh, oh,
my God. This is gorgeous.

Grandma G would be so proud.
- Yes, she would.

Now, now, now, um, you
know, when's the day?

'Cause I'm trying to
get bridesmaid ready.

Wow.

I'm gonna be a bridesmaid,
right? Come again, say what?

- Of course you are.
- Okay. Just saying.

- Of course you are.
- So when's the date?

We're thinking next
year for Christmas.

A Christmas wedding
sounds perfect.

- Yes.
- Congratulations.

Now we just gotta get
Armani married off.

No, I just passed the bar and-

Oh, I'm working on it.

Speak up here, brother.

Oh, hell no. Not
my butter head.

Uncle L Ray.

Now, now, now, I think
we'll all be okay

with a Watkins family
wedding or two.

- Oh.
- Ooh.

For Christmas?

Merry Christmas.

He looking cute too.

He all right. He all right.

Don't look like the
last boy she was with.

I like that other one.

I wonder what he did.

He run like he Carl
Lewis or something.

Well, I tell you what, I
bet you he was cheating.

Mr. Wells, but I'd be very h-

I'd be very happy to help you.

You can help me in the kitchen

and we'll get to know
each other better.

You are not supposed
to leave yet.

So you originally from Atlanta?

Actually, no.

I just moved there
from Cincinnati.

- Cincinnati. Okay.
- Cut.

Oh, my bad.

Sorry. Scene 17, take two.

My favorite granddaughter.

Hey, listen. When
you the oldest...

I don't even know
what I wanna say.

Baby, what's up? Shoot.

Dang it.

But at least it didn't break.

You are so ready.

I ain't got no insurance.
Lemme tell you something.

Don't break nothing
in his house.

No got no insurance.

Quiet on set.

Something tell me you cheating.

I ain't got nothing.

Pull it out.

You always talking.

I get you. See you

All right. Come on, woman.

Get you on your way

- Get.
- Oh, God.

Scene 34 beta, take one.

- Damn, boy.
- Dang it, hell.

What the heck
happened? Oh, my God.

Maybe you should go
stay at the hotel.

Uh-uh. Well, that's
why your mother stink.

Gone.

Oh, Lord. What is
she, she talking?

Wait.

What's your line after that?

What? What is it?

And after you say
your line, I say,

"What are you talking about?"

Okay. I didn't wanna say
the same thing he said.

What is it now? Okay.

She got lipstick on her
teeth and it threw me off.

Oh, y'all started without me?

We saved you a little something.

Doctor said I could
have a little taste.

A little bit?
Just a little bit.

Just a little something.

On it. Get some
little droppers.

Drop on your tongue
a little bit.

And I'm sorry I made
you feel that way.

I don't know what you
wanted for Christmas,

but all I wanted for
Christmas was you.

I love you, Rain.

He was just watching too.

For a second.

Got you, Daddy.

No, that's you.
So when's the day?

Oh, shit.

Merry Christmas.

Wake your ass up.
