00:04And one of our local retirees is set to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award from the state
00:12of Georgia this evening. George Reginald Jr. served 25 years on the bench and is credited
00:19with deciding several landmark cases. Oh man, it's a blessing that they giving him his flowers
00:28why he can smell them. Y'all do know his mind is slipping. Yeah, he's sick, we know that,
00:33but he's with us for now, so it's good timing. All right, look like we got a local celebrity
00:38living with us, man. Where's the local celebrity? That's a good question, you tell me. Yeah,
00:43he usually up by now. Well, he had a rough night. Is everything okay? Yeah, well, he's had some
00:49ups and downs with his son. That boy's holding a deep grudge against his father. Oh, really?
00:54Looks good. Maybe they should talk. Well, they do talk, but every time they talk,
01:00a number of negative words come out. That'll make a bad situation worse. Oh, man, you tell me,
01:05man, them two like a raw butt with nothing but wool pants on top of it. Oh, man, I'm surprised.
01:11I thought they were cool. He came to judge you in his birthday party. Well, I think he had some
01:15resentment from when he was young. You know, it can be hard sometimes. I mean, things are said,
01:20and children can take it the wrong way. Man, being a parent is tough.
01:25Yeah, it is. I would hate for one of my kids to resent anything that Lee and I did.
01:30You know, I learned when I was teaching that kids can be sensitive, even the ones that act tough.
01:36Also, they can take things to heart. Well, children need to learn to get over it,
01:40that's for sure. Well, I mean, it's not that easy all the time.
01:43Look, in my country, we have a saying. Water may cover the footprints on the ground,
01:49but it cannot cover the words from the mouth.
01:52Oh, man. Wow.
01:53That's good, F.A. That's real good.
01:56But sometimes it's not easy to erase things that were said.
01:59Yes, it's almost impossible to erase bad words.
02:02That's why one must be very careful what one says.
02:05That's true, because you never know what happened or what was said.
02:09Well, I don't know what was said. It got Judge Junie walking around here in a funk.
02:15Well, hopefully being honored tonight will cheer him up.
02:18Well, he wanted his son to come to it.
02:21He's not coming?
02:22No.
02:23Well, he asked him to come. He begged him, actually, but he said he was unavailable.
02:28And that boy's holding a deep resentment against his father.
02:33Good morning, everybody.
02:34Hey, sir.
02:35We were reading about you in the pit box.
02:37Oh, I'm in favor.
02:39Yes, you're a local hero.
02:40Yeah, you got your big speech prepared?
02:43Speech?
02:44Yeah, yeah, for your big award.
02:46Yeah, you can practice on us.
02:47I didn't prepare any speech.
02:49Well, why not?
02:50Well, because I'm not going.
02:52What?
02:53You're not going?
02:54Mm.
02:54Not going.
03:01No matter what you do, I love you.
03:04No matter where you go, I'm behind you for sure.
03:08Always remember, love and never want.
03:10We'll make it if we stay together.
03:17What do you mean you're not going?
03:18Just that.
03:20I'm not going.
03:20But why?
03:21But why?
03:22Banquets are to be enjoyed by family.
03:25And friends.
03:26Yeah, well, all family ain't blood.
03:28Hell, I don't even like a lot of my family members.
03:31Damn, Grandpa.
03:32Look, I like you, grandson.
03:34Oh, sometimes.
03:36And then other times, I want to throw you in the lake and hold you down.
03:40See that there?
03:42What'd you say, F.A.?
03:43You can keep the words in the footprint?
03:45Not exactly.
03:46Whatever.
03:47Close enough.
03:48Hey, you better be careful what you say.
03:49You could hurt my feelings.
03:51I'm going to say something.
03:52Okay.
03:53Y'all can go to hell with all this feeling stuff.
03:58Now, I'm going to say what I got to say.
04:01And whoever don't like it, they can kiss my feelings.
04:05Okay?
04:06That's all I got to say about it.
04:07I ain't saying nothing else.
04:10Judge, I think you should go to your banquet tonight.
04:12Yes.
04:12Yes.
04:13Yeah, that's a great honor they give you.
04:15It's a milestone event.
04:16Something you've worked your whole career for.
04:18Isn't it funny?
04:19My whole life, I've worked to be recognized as a judge of honor and great repute.
04:25And now, in sitting in this seat, the only thing I can think about is whether or not I'm loved
04:30and honored by my son.
04:32Wow.
04:33Whoa.
04:33That's tough.
04:34That's deep.
04:41I would say come in, but you're already coming in, so...
04:45My bad.
04:46That's just the residual effects of paying all the bills.
04:49You know, you kind of just walk into whatever dough you feel like it.
04:51Noted.
04:54Yeah, you've been pretty quiet around here.
04:56Sitting in the room all day.
04:57What's going on?
04:58Yeah, well, you put me on punishment for ditching class, remember?
05:01Oh.
05:02Hey, get your ass in that room and stay there no matter what.
05:05Hey, matter of fact, if you want to breathe, you better text and ask me first.
05:09I said it like that.
05:11Yeah, you don't remember?
05:13Yeah, but you're making it a little bit more dramatic.
05:15I don't remember saying it like that.
05:16Nah, it was exactly like that.
05:19Yeah, well, my anger had me a little cloudy.
05:21You know, all the ditching and lying.
05:23Dad, I said I was sorry.
05:26Yeah, well.
05:27What you doing here all day?
05:28Being nasty, ain't you?
05:29Why are you always thinking that?
05:30Because you're a teenage boy and that's what y'all do.
05:32Y'all sit around being nasty all the time.
05:34I've been there.
05:35No, well, not me.
05:37Okay, I don't need to do all that.
05:38The girls be all up on me.
05:39See, you're lying again, son.
05:41Stop lying.
05:42All right, whatever, Dad.
05:43Can I help you with something?
05:44What are you doing?
05:46Science homework.
05:47Munson said he'll fail me if I don't turn in my missing assignments.
05:50Well, he should fail you.
05:51You're lucky he's letting you make it up.
05:53You make sure you thank him.
05:54Yeah, right.
05:56Excuse me?
05:57I will thank him, Dad.
05:58Yeah, you better.
06:03So, what's the assignment?
06:05Dad.
06:06What?
06:06I want to know.
06:08Physics.
06:09Ooh, physics.
06:10Damn.
06:10Do you want me to explain the assignment to you?
06:12Hell no.
06:13I hated physics.
06:14You like that class?
06:15I was ditching, remember?
06:16Oh, yeah.
06:17Yeah, you're right.
06:19All right.
06:19Um, all right.
06:21Well, fine.
06:21I'll let you get back to it.
06:22You're so kind.
06:27You're so kind.
06:29Yes, Dad?
06:31You think I'm hard on you?
06:33Can I answer that honestly?
06:35Of course you can.
06:37Yes.
06:38With a capital Y-E-S.
06:41Uh, do you know why I'm hard on you?
06:43No, with a capital N-O.
06:46So, do you think you're going to resent me one day, or do you think you'll appreciate
06:50the way I've parented you?
06:51I resent it now.
06:54Son.
06:55Dad, can I finish the assignment that you put me on punishment for?
06:59All right.
07:00I'll let you get to it.
07:05Hey.
07:09Oh, Cor, give me the papers over there, Cor.
07:11What?
07:12Cor, pass me the file.
07:13Oh, wait, wait, wait.
07:14Ooh, Judge, you look so nice.
07:17Yeah, you look like new money.
07:19Do I?
07:20Yeah, you do.
07:21So, what's the occasion?
07:22Hmm, sneaking behind my back with my wife.
07:25What?
07:25Nah, I'm just kidding.
07:26Leah taking the lunch.
07:27Yeah, she insisted.
07:29Wouldn't take no for an answer.
07:30All right, that's good.
07:31I would not.
07:32As a matter of fact, are you ready to go, Judge?
07:34Yes, if we must, we must.
07:36We must, we must.
07:37It's going to be good for you to get out.
07:40Mm-hmm.
07:40So, how did you get the judge to go out on a lunch date?
07:43Oh.
07:44Yeah, I want to know this, because he's been walking around here with a little attitude.
07:48He has, but I know his weakness.
07:50Okay.
07:51What's that?
07:52Sushi.
07:52There's a new sushi bar up the street.
07:54Hey, great.
07:56Oh, yeah.
07:57It's going to be nice to get out in the neighborhood, see some gardens, get a little vitamin D from
08:03the sunshine.
08:04Okay, okay.
08:05Yeah, there's two things I love.
08:06One is walking.
08:07Uh-huh.
08:07The other is sushi.
08:08Oh, well, that's great.
08:10Great job.
08:11No, I'll try sometimes more.
08:13Hey, Judge, don't be getting fresh with my wife, either.
08:16Oh, now, look out now.
08:17Oh, my goodness.
08:18What the stoppings?
08:20Look, Judge Judy, pay him no mind.
08:23Bye, y'all.
08:24Bye.
08:25Y'all have a good lunch.
08:27Have a good one.
08:27That is so sweet.
08:29Yeah, that's nice.
08:30I'm glad he finally getting out and getting some fresh air to get out this house.
08:33Mm-hmm.
08:34Yeah, yeah, it's actually good for both of them.
08:35The doctor said that a walker day would be great for Leah as she's carrying our little
08:38bundle of joy.
08:39Yes, you know, a walker's good for everybody.
08:42Mm-hmm.
08:42Yeah, that's good.
08:43Come on in.
08:46Get them both some fresh air and vitamin D.
08:48Yep.
08:48You done had enough.
08:49Hey.
08:50Hi, everyone.
08:51Oh, hey.
08:52Lisa, ain't it?
08:53Lisa, come on in.
08:55Hey.
08:56Is Judge Judy in?
08:57Oh, they just left.
08:58They went back out there.
09:00I'm surprised you didn't see them.
09:01Let me see if I can catch them.
09:02Oh, okay.
09:03Yeah.
09:03Well, come on in here.
09:05Yes, thank you.
09:05Come on in.
09:06It is so good to see y'all again.
09:08All right, you too.
09:09Troy and I just wanted to say goodbye.
09:12Well, that is so sweet.
09:13Well, how you doing?
09:15Oh, where's Brian?
09:17Brandon?
09:18Yeah, Brandon.
09:19Where is he at?
09:20He didn't care to come.
09:24Oh.
09:30You mean he didn't care enough to come and see about his daddy?
09:33I wish that wasn't the case, but I'm afraid it's the truth.
09:36Where's Granddad?
09:38I think we missed him, baby.
09:39Oh, would y'all like something to drink or something?
09:42No, we're okay.
09:43We just ate.
09:43It's fine.
09:44I want a drink.
09:45Oh, you would?
09:46Okay, come on.
09:47Let's see if we can find you.
09:48Yeah, I hope Jeremy can catch them.
09:50They wasn't too far down the street.
09:51Okay.
09:52The judge would be so disappointed if he didn't see you.
09:55Yeah.
09:55You okay?
09:56I'm fine.
09:58Hopefully he'd get him.
09:59Oh, hey, Brian.
10:01Hey, Brandon.
10:01Brandon.
10:02Brandon.
10:02Oh, hey, Brandon.
10:03Hey, Miss Cora.
10:04Lisa, come on.
10:04We need to go.
10:06Why are you coming here like you all mad or something?
10:08I'm sorry, sister.
10:09We have a flight to catch.
10:11Oh, well, the judge just left.
10:13He would have loved to see y'all.
10:14I'm afraid we don't have time for that.
10:15Come on, guys.
10:16Come on.
10:16Let's go.
10:17All right.
10:21Brandon, if we miss the flight, so what?
10:24Lisa, we have to go back home.
10:26Well, she just said if y'all miss the flight, it ain't going to be no big deal, so obviously
10:29it ain't going to be no big deal.
10:30Mr. Brown, it's they business.
10:32Brandon, I just figured since we were here, we could at least let your dad see his grandson.
10:37We've barely seen him since we've been here.
10:39I thought that's why we came all this way.
10:40Yeah, and I showed up, which is more than he ever did for me, so come on, please.
10:44Let's go.
10:45Come on, Troy.
10:46Let's go.
10:46I want to see Grandpa.
10:48Daddy says we have to go, okay?
10:51Come on, Troy.
10:52You like the plane, right?
10:53You want to go see the airplane?
10:54I want to see Grandpa.
10:57Well, he said he wanted to see his Grandpa.
11:02What is your problem?
11:03Mr. Brown.
11:03No, Cora, I want to know what his problem is with his daddy.
11:08That's a long story.
11:10Brenda didn't have a good childhood growing up with his dad.
11:13Okay, I'm not going to sit here and pretend like he was the perfect father, but he seemed
11:19like he turned out all right to me.
11:22I did.
11:23You did?
11:24Right?
11:25You successful?
11:27Very successful.
11:27He put you through college?
11:29Yes, sir.
11:30Well, son, you turned out all right.
11:33Listen, you walking around here with this chip on your shoulder, that ain't cool.
11:38You only get one father.
11:40And the Bible says, honor your father and the mother so that your days will be long on this
11:45earth.
11:45Yes.
11:47Now, you've already lost 10 years being angry at him, and he's sick, so we don't even know
11:52if he have another 10 years.
11:53Right.
11:54Do you want to spend the next 10 years being angry at him?
11:59He may not even recognize you in a little while.
12:03And every adult has had regrets about things that they've done in the past or growing up,
12:10but there's nothing we can do about it.
12:12We can't go back and change the past.
12:14Right.
12:14And we all look back on our childhood with some kind of bitterness and regret, but there's
12:20nothing we can do about it.
12:21Right.
12:21We can't go back and change the past.
12:23So true.
12:24All we can do is move forward.
12:26So, son, and I say this really sincerely with all due respect, get over it.
12:32You have got to get over it.
12:35What'd he say?
12:39I found him.
12:40Oh, great.
12:41Great.
12:43Grandad.
12:43Yeah, of course.
12:44Where's your grandad?
12:45Are you going to read to you?
12:47Oh, my goodness.
13:01Well, I certainly appreciate that you all stopped by.
13:06Yeah.
13:07Troy begs us to see you every day.
13:12He's just a bundle of love, isn't he?
13:14That he is.
13:16Yeah.
13:17And I'm committed to making sure that he has an incredible childhood.
13:21Well, that's important.
13:25Yes, it is.
13:27And I'm sorry that I didn't make your childhood all that it should have been.
13:37Hey, it's water under the bridge.
13:43But you got to know that I did try.
13:48I know.
13:51Do you?
13:54Well, I'm learning.
13:56I'm growing.
13:59And Mr. Brown just told me that I needed to get over it, so.
14:03I wish I knew what you were trying to get over.
14:08Are you angry with me?
14:12I know it probably comes off that way, but no, I'm not angry.
14:17I'm just grown.
14:19I have my own life now, and it doesn't include you.
14:27That's harsh.
14:29That's hurtful.
14:31Look, Dad, I'm sorry that I had to cut you out of most of my adult life.
14:36But I can promise you it wasn't punishment.
14:40We're just two different types of men.
14:43I let you be the type of man that you wanted to be, and I pursued life from where I
14:47stood.
14:47And somehow the two worlds, they just didn't mix.
14:52I mean, I was okay with that, and frankly, I thought you were too.
14:56We never really saw eye to eye on anything.
14:59Well, I hope that we can bury the hatchet and start a reset on this thing, maybe.
15:08I'm fine with that.
15:10And I want you to get to know your grandson.
15:13He seems really happy to see you every time.
15:16Well, that would make me very happy.
15:20Seeing him and Lisa made this the greatest week of my life.
15:26Well, I'm glad.
15:28And I'll try to make it down here to see you from time to time.
15:32That would make me very happy.
15:35Okay.
15:36Well, I guess we should get going so you can make it to your banquet.
15:41Banquet?
15:42Yeah.
15:44Aren't you being honored tonight at a banquet?
15:46Oh, I'm not going.
15:49Not going?
15:50Why?
15:52There's nobody to celebrate it with.
16:06Hey, son.
16:08Hey, Dad.
16:09What you up to?
16:10Um, physics.
16:12Still?
16:13Man, you really at it.
16:15Yeah, well, you took away my phone, my TV, and my game system, so...
16:20Oh, oh, oh.
16:21That's why you're not being nasty.
16:23I took away your phone.
16:24I forgot about that.
16:25Whatever, Dad.
16:26So, physics it is.
16:27Yeah.
16:27So, how's it going?
16:29Um, some of it I understand.
16:31Some of it I'm stuck on.
16:32Munson's a horrible teacher.
16:34Hmm.
16:35Yeah, well, I'm proud of you for sticking to it, son.
16:38Figuring it out.
16:41So, can I help you with something?
16:45Well, I figured since I handed down the punishment, I should come in here and...
16:48Hey.
16:49Ugh.
16:53I figured I should come in here and, uh, talk about it.
16:57I'm confused.
16:57Do you want me to do the homework, or do you want me to talk?
17:00Man, stop being a butthole, all right?
17:02I'm here, so let's talk about it.
17:05And lose the attitude.
17:07What attitude?
17:08That, that attitude right there.
17:09I'm not doing anything.
17:12Listen, Phillip.
17:14I love you.
17:15Let's start there.
17:16Okay, Dad.
17:17And this is where you say...
17:19I love you, too.
17:20So, why'd I have to coach you into saying that?
17:22I was about to say it.
17:23You didn't give me the opportunity.
17:26Okay.
17:28Son, do you know why I punished you?
17:31Yes, because I was ditching class and because I lied.
17:35But why do I care about that?
17:36Because you love me.
17:39Okay.
17:40And I want you to be the best version of yourself.
17:43I want you to be great.
17:45I want you to be a man of character.
17:46Yeah, and I know because you want to be proud of me.
17:50Not only do I want to be proud of you, I want you to be proud of yourself, son.
17:53You may not know it, but your daddy got your back.
17:55Forever.
17:56You believe that?
17:58Yes, sir.
17:59See?
18:00There you go.
18:02I like that when you call me sir.
18:03You should do that more often.
18:05Yes, sir.
18:06Yeah.
18:07All right.
18:07I'm going to let you get back to it, man.
18:09Whoa, whoa, wait, wait.
18:10You're not going to give me back a phone or a TV or nothing?
18:14Hell no.
18:15That's some shit your mother would do.
18:16I'm standing on this punishment.
18:18Dad, you don't see how sad I look?
18:21Normally, when I look sad, you give me my stuff back.
18:23Look.
18:26All right, son, here it is.
18:30What is that?
18:30I don't want that.
18:31It's a handshake, man.
18:32Just, it's the best I got right now.
18:35You don't want it?
18:35Cool.
18:42Love you, son.
18:43There ain't nothing you can do about it.
18:50Damn.
18:55Curry, you can talk to these cameras.
18:57Hey.
18:58You know that's what I read.
18:59Go down.

19:16That's all you got it.
19:17You got it right, Lisa?
19:18Yes, sir.
19:18What are you all doing here?
19:19I thought you left.
19:22Dad, you got to go get honored tonight.
19:24Oh, it's okay.
19:27Sorry.
19:28Will you go if we all accompany you?
19:31Uh, what, you mean now?
19:33Like, I'm not dressed.
19:36Judge, you look fine.
19:37You look great.
19:38Well?
