00:00:43Baby, get out here before the cereal gets soggy.
00:00:46Tune our peanut butter, hurry up.
00:00:48Peanut butter.
00:00:49What is she still doing here?
00:00:52That's for the kids' lunches.
00:00:53Well, Jacob offered to.
00:00:54Well, Jacob's one of the kids.
00:00:56He's a grown-ass man, and you ain't his mama.
00:00:58You do know he's 17, right?
00:01:03Hey, ma.
00:01:03Is everybody up?
00:01:04Yeah, everything's done, of course.
00:01:06What about you?
00:01:06You tired?
00:01:07Where's your brother?
00:01:08Good morning.
00:01:10He's just getting up.
00:01:11I got to get back to work.
00:01:13OK.
00:01:13Well, I left a plate for you in the fridge for when you get home.
00:01:16All right.
00:01:16Talk to you later.
00:01:18Love you.
00:01:18Love you.
00:01:19Um, who was she?
00:01:20Who are you?
00:01:21She was just leaving.
00:01:24Let's go.
00:01:24Let's go.
00:01:28I didn't eat what we have.
00:01:30Yo.
00:01:30Thanks for the Cisco line.
00:01:31I hope you protected yourself.
00:01:33Seriously.
00:01:34From fleas.
00:01:36Remember, there's a no pet rule in the building.
00:01:39Haters.
00:01:40Dead ass.
00:01:40Both of you.
00:01:41I'm not hatin'.
00:01:42I'm lookin' out for you.
00:01:43You stole this, huh?
00:01:45I am.
00:01:45Don't you ever forget it.
00:01:47Buy one minute, fool.
00:01:49Do I get one too, Mom?
00:01:51I'm good, Jacob.
00:01:52I'll take it.
00:01:53No.
00:01:54Look, y'all gonna be late.
00:01:55Get on.
00:01:56Take this.
00:01:57Thanks, Jake.
00:01:58You know I got you.
00:01:59And scrub the nasty out the tub before Mom gets home.
00:02:05Hey, she was nasty and a little bit nasty,
00:02:07but she wasn't nasty nasty.
00:02:09Bye, Jacob.
00:02:16Machines and living things convert energy into what?
00:02:19Heat.
00:02:21Good, baby.
00:02:22And how does a living thing convert energy into heat?
00:02:26What?
00:02:27Sex?
00:02:28That, you better not run on your test.
00:02:34Good morning.
00:02:35Come on in.
00:02:35How are you?
00:02:36Um, ladies usual.
00:02:42I thought she said she was coming.
00:02:44She is.
00:02:46She's supposed to, anyway.
00:02:48I hope I didn't choose the one day she's sick.
00:02:50That wouldn't change anything.
00:02:53Ah, girl, what do you do?
00:02:55Uh-uh.
00:02:55What you doing?
00:02:56What you doing here, Terrence?
00:02:56Boy, you know this ain't your train.
00:02:58Good morning, T.
00:02:59Who you waiting for?
00:03:00Your cousin.
00:03:01Oh, darling.
00:03:02What's good?
00:03:03What up, Andre?
00:03:04How you doing?
00:03:05Come on, come on.
00:03:07Come on, girl.
00:03:08You know you're not too busy for your own men.
00:03:09Oh, man.
00:03:10Yeah.
00:03:10I'm only been torn by.
00:03:12Terrence, where you going?
00:03:13I'm in the class.
00:03:14Where you going?
00:03:16You don't even have a book bag.
00:03:17Shut up.
00:03:31Kalani.
00:03:33Uh-uh.
00:03:34Girl, you know you don't want to be late for school.
00:03:39What's up, Kalani?
00:03:41What's up, Terrence?
00:03:49What?
00:03:50Making you nervous or something?
00:03:53Well, with you staring at me like that.
00:03:56What you doing on this train, anyway?
00:03:58My grandma needed some help with groceries this morning, so I just thought I'd come through.
00:04:02Aw, it's easy.
00:04:04Man, this is my style.
00:04:06Tell Kirk I said hi if you see him.
00:04:08You say a man?
00:04:10Yes, that's still my man.
00:04:12You sure?
00:04:20Why are you doing that?
00:04:22How are you doing that?
00:04:24How are you doing that?
00:04:25You need to stop.
00:04:30Okay, girls.
00:04:32Your next assignment.
00:04:33Write a paper on The Lie by Kurt Vonnegut.
00:04:35I expect you all did the reading.
00:04:37Chanda and Kalani, it was a rhetorical question.
00:04:40It's AP literature.
00:04:42Now, who can tell me what Kurt Vonnegut's The Lie was all about?
00:04:47Can I raise my hand now, or is that also a rhetorical question?
00:04:51Amy.
00:04:52It's a book about the American dream.
00:04:54Really?
00:04:56You have to go deeper, Amy.
00:04:59Bethany, what are your thoughts?
00:05:01It's a short story about a boy whose family donates money to a private school much like
00:05:05ours, but the school doesn't accept the boy because his test scores aren't good enough.
00:05:09Even though his family had gone to the school for generations, it's completely unfair.
00:05:14Good.
00:05:15Bethany, you have hit on the topic of this assignment.
00:05:20Continue, Bethany.
00:05:21Most of us in this room would agree that private schools are private for a reason.
00:05:26If you can't afford it, you shouldn't have the right to a better education.
00:05:30That is a very strong point of view.
00:05:34Best days are due on Monday.
00:05:37They account for one third of your final grade, and I am expecting nothing short of your very best.
00:05:43Thank you so much.
00:05:46Kalani, I need to see you for a moment.
00:05:59Good afternoon, Kalani.
00:06:06Your college application is there.
00:06:08Are you sure you don't want me to send any others?
00:06:11I think I can take it to the mailbox myself.
00:06:15I've given this a lot of thought, and Yale is where I want to be in my first choice.
00:06:25I understand.
00:06:27I can be behind it.
00:06:29Thank you, and for helping with the application fee.
00:06:36I don't know what I want to do if I don't get in.
00:06:40The great what-ifs of life either propels you to greatness or stunts you into immobility.
00:06:50My destiny is going to make you sitting down and staying focused on what has to be done.
00:06:58That's your destiny.
00:07:02My destiny?
00:07:04You sound so much like me.
00:07:05Yeah, but did you have a bitch-ass bigot trying to ruin you?
00:07:09I hate Ms. Umans.
00:07:12Ms. Umans?
00:07:13She has a problem with me.
00:07:16I'm the only black girl in our class, and she makes sure I know it.
00:07:20It's good preparation for you, Kalani.
00:07:25Let me tell you a little story.
00:07:30I was a young brother from the projects.
00:07:34My mother gave birth to me at 13.
00:07:38I had all the world on my shoulder and all the odds against me.
00:07:45I was told that I was brilliant and accomplished just like you.
00:07:51I even got a scholarship to play baseball and be a pitcher at one of the top-ranked high schools.
00:07:59Then the team got a coach who was not interested in having a black pitcher.
00:08:09I was disappointed.
00:08:11I was upset.
00:08:12I felt like I had lost my confidence, all those things.
00:08:16My grades fell.
00:08:17All those things happened to me.
00:08:18And I figured since I'm a black man in this white man's world, why should I dream big?
00:08:26Why can't I just sit on the bench of life like everyone else and don't follow my dreams?
00:08:32Hmm.
00:08:34Now, I didn't go into baseball like I wanted to.
00:08:39I didn't go into my dream.
00:08:42But I made it.
00:08:44Yeah.
00:08:46Through all that, I got through it.
00:08:51And I look at that and I think about you.
00:08:55Because that's what you're gonna have to do.
00:08:57You're gonna have to get through it.
00:08:59All the things that you're angry about, all the ways in which your dreams are often undermined.
00:09:07You're gonna have to get through it.
00:09:09And you, you can do that.
00:09:13I think so.
00:09:16Step one is to be present and to be focused.
00:09:20So get out there.
00:09:37I got it.
00:09:38Are you kidding?
00:09:40Daddy's in the south of France.
00:09:41Last I heard.
00:09:42Card's got us.
00:09:44Thanks.
00:09:45No problem.
00:09:51You know the school year's almost over and you've still never taken me to a party in Harlem?
00:09:56I hear they're epic.
00:09:57I could be your plus one.
00:09:59My plus one?
00:10:00What?
00:10:01I mean it.
00:10:02You're telling me you don't need to blow off steam.
00:10:04Katie, have you ever been above 96th Street?
00:10:07Of course I have.
00:10:08I took a tour of Columbia.
00:10:10Mmm.
00:10:11Okay.
00:10:12Yeah.
00:10:13Okay.
00:10:15Come on.
00:10:18Kalani, you ready?
00:10:19Let's go.
00:10:20Hi, Katie.
00:10:21Hi, Kirk.
00:10:22It's nice to see you again.
00:10:23Oh, it's nice to see you too.
00:10:25Hi, Katie.
00:10:27Kalani, you know I don't like being down here.
00:10:28Oh, don't be so dramatic.
00:10:30Kalani, let's go.
00:10:34Um, bye, Katie.
00:10:36See you later.
00:10:37Okay.
00:10:37Let me know about going out this weekend.
00:10:40Gotcha.
00:10:42I thought we had plans, just you and I.
00:10:53You looking good today, baby.
00:10:55You waiting on me?
00:10:57My brother was supposed to pick me up.
00:10:59I don't know where he is, and he's not picking up his phone.
00:11:01Hey, Ty, hop in the V. Let's get to the crib.
00:11:03I went with my friends tonight, Malik.
00:11:05I'm good.
00:11:07You headed back to 1 55th?
00:11:08I can give you a ride if that's what you ask.
00:11:10Well, you took me for a ride a couple times last month,
00:11:13and then I never saw you again.
00:11:16Oh, you know I love you, shorty.
00:11:18I'm gonna hop in the whip so we can get to the crib.
00:11:20Good morning.
00:11:20Good morning.
00:11:39Good morning.
00:11:41Good morning.
00:11:41Nice and tonight.
00:11:43Home, our sobs, daddy.
00:11:47I can eat.
00:11:48What's up?
00:12:07Hey, Dad.
00:12:08Hey, Pastor.
00:12:09Hey.
00:12:10Hey, Kalani.
00:12:10How you doing?
00:12:11How's Mom and the family?
00:12:13Everybody's good.
00:12:14Yeah?
00:12:15What about this knucklehead?
00:12:16How's he, how's he treating you?
00:12:20Son.
00:12:22You're not going to help her with her backpack?
00:12:24Talk to you better than that.
00:12:25Just my bad, Dad, please.
00:12:27Offer something to drink?
00:12:28Oh, I'm fine, really.
00:12:30Okay.
00:12:31You guys have homework?
00:12:32Yeah, a big paper.
00:12:34All right, well, you know you're welcome to stay
00:12:36and have dinner with us.
00:12:38Just tell your Mom.
00:12:40Thanks, Pastor.
00:12:41All right, I have a big meeting at the church,
00:12:43so get back in a couple hours.
00:12:45All right, Pop.
00:12:45Love you.
00:12:46All right, take care.
00:12:47I've got mine on you.
00:12:51I need some drink.
00:13:05Hey, how about we shut this?
00:13:08Hey, what are you doing?
00:13:10Let's go upstairs.
00:13:11Why?
00:13:11It's more comfortable up there.
00:13:13Come on, babe.
00:13:14Come on.
00:13:15I'm fine.
00:13:16Comfortable enough.
00:13:17Damn boy.
00:13:22Yo, I'm not your damn boy.
00:13:24And I'm not a dog.
00:13:28OK, what just happened?
00:13:29I'm fine.
00:13:29Why you always got to be like that?
00:13:31Like what?
00:13:32Boring.
00:13:33Kalani, boring.
00:13:34A tease.
00:13:35All my friends get to brag about what their girls do for them.
00:13:37I can't say nothing.
00:13:39You don't do nothing for me, you don't want me,
00:13:41and you don't care about me.
00:13:42I don't care about you.
00:13:45I care about you.
00:13:47Improve it.
00:13:53I don't care about you.
00:14:12I said no.
00:14:13Relax, relax.
00:14:14I said no, stop, stop, Kurt, stop, Kurt, stop, stop, stop.
00:14:36Hey, baby, where are you going?
00:14:41I'm my future wife.
00:14:56I wonder where all my children are.
00:14:59Hey, mom, what's got you so out of breath?
00:15:02That's him.
00:15:03Where's Bebe?
00:15:05I'm gonna kill that little girl.
00:15:07There's some chicken and dumplings on the stove with some white rice.
00:15:09Go make yourself a plate.
00:15:10I'm not hungry, mom.
00:15:12Chicken and dumplings is one of your favorites, would you say this?
00:15:15No.
00:15:17Bebe, do you know what time it is?
00:15:20I'm sorry, I didn't think he was home yet.
00:15:23I was waiting on Jacob and he never came to get me.
00:15:26Just because I'm not home doesn't mean you shouldn't be.
00:15:28I want you to come straight home after school whether Jacob gets you or not.
00:15:32Do you understand?
00:15:34Yes, mama.
00:15:35So where have you been?
00:15:37With a friend.
00:15:38What friend?
00:15:39Tied from downstairs.
00:15:41I thought I told you to stay away from that family.
00:15:43I'm sorry, I forgot.
00:15:46You forgetting something?
00:15:46Okay.
00:15:51You stink, baby.
00:15:54You been having sex?
00:15:55No.
00:15:56Don't you lie to me, girl.
00:15:57Where you get this necklace from, huh?
00:15:58From a friend.
00:15:59He gave it to you for nothing?
00:16:02Ma, I didn't do anything.
00:16:02The next words that come out of your mouth better not be a lie.
00:16:07I can't even look at you right now and get out of my face and go take a shower before
00:16:10I beat your ass.
00:16:11I told you to look after your sister.
00:16:14How could you let this happen?
00:16:35Kalani, have you seen my shower cap?
00:16:43Are you mad at me, too?
00:16:46What do you think?
00:16:49Why don't you tell me you're having sex, baby?
00:16:54I can't protect you if you don't tell me anything.
00:16:58I'm sorry.
00:17:02You use condoms, right?
00:17:05Sometimes.
00:17:06Sometimes.
00:17:07They only work if you use them every time.
00:17:10He doesn't like condoms.
00:17:11He says it don't feel the same.
00:17:12What if you get a STD?
00:17:14That won't happen.
00:17:15Are you stupid?
00:17:16No.
00:17:18You know what?
00:17:18First thing Monday morning, you go into the clinic.
00:17:20But tomorrow, you're going to get your butt up, go to the pharmacy, and get some condoms.
00:17:24Since it seems like you cannot control yourself, and you need to get a pregnancy test.
00:17:29I'm fine.
00:17:30How do you know?
00:17:31Because I'm not pregnant.
00:17:32When was your last period?
00:17:34I don't know.
00:17:35I don't remember.
00:17:35Last month?
00:17:36I don't know.
00:17:37Exactly.
00:17:37You don't know anything.
00:17:39You're taking the test.
00:17:40I'll give you the money.
00:17:41That's it.
00:17:42Your shower cap is over there.
00:17:44You protect your hair, but not your life.
00:17:46Stupid.
00:18:16I haven't robbed a lot of stuff.
00:18:18To us, we found a little water.
00:18:18I'll give you the stress off.
00:18:18All right.
00:18:28We're going to bother you.
00:18:47Mom, are you okay?
00:18:54And I plead your precious blood over my mother.
00:18:58Keep baby and Jacob in your hand
00:19:01according to your will, God.
00:19:04In Jesus' name, amen.
00:19:10Amen.
00:19:23Get up!
00:19:24Get up!
00:19:27Mom, what are you doing?
00:19:31Call your brother and tell him to come get his stuff.
00:19:32I've had enough.
00:19:33He's got to go.
00:19:34He didn't come home last night, and then I find this.
00:19:38Where was it?
00:19:39Right here in his room.
00:19:42Did you know Kalani?
00:19:43No.
00:19:45No, Ma.
00:19:46Tell him I'm flushing it down the toilet.
00:19:47I won't have this in my house.
00:19:51Mom, Mom, please stop.
00:19:54If you need to do this, call your brother and tell him to come get his stuff.
00:19:57Otherwise, he'll be picking it up off the curb.
00:19:59I want him out.
00:20:01Oh, fuck.
00:20:02Mom.
00:20:04And I will.
00:20:04All right.
00:20:21You are very serious in my way.
00:20:23Is that what you call her, right host?
00:20:29Who's that man with the money?
00:20:31Bonnie, get out of my way!
00:20:51Hello?
00:20:52Why didn't you tell me?
00:20:53This is what you into now, Jacob.
00:20:55Have you lost your mind?
00:20:56Mop out your stash and she flushed it.
00:20:59She flushed it?
00:21:00You're kidding me right now.
00:21:02She could get me killed.
00:21:03She could get all of us killed.
00:21:05You're the one who gon' get us killed.
00:21:07I'm doing this to take care of y'all.
00:21:08I put my life on the line every day for this family.
00:21:11Do you even know what that's like?
00:21:13Jacob, us-
00:21:14You know what?
00:21:15Just keep mom out of my room, all right?
00:21:17I gotta go handle this.
00:21:31Let's do it.
00:21:36Let's do it.
00:21:38Let's do it.
00:21:40Let's do it.
00:21:40Let's do it.
00:21:41Let's do it.
00:21:43Why you look so damn depressed?
00:21:45I'm going through stuff.
00:21:46Girl, don't nobody want to hear you complain about your perfect little life?
00:21:49You don't know nothing about my life, so shut up.
00:21:52Crystal, for real.
00:21:53Hey, she's your cousin.
00:21:56Anyway, we gonna shop it up, right?
00:21:59Because you know I gotta look real cute.
00:22:00If y'all call me for the party tonight, we gotta get ready.
00:22:05Go with Crystal.
00:22:07You know Crystal Kent, she on that leash for the Lord, and I'm not going by myself.
00:22:12No, see, if your brother was going, that's a different story.
00:22:15But I have choir practice, and I'm not trying to hang with you heathens.
00:22:18I'm not going, Tyann.
00:22:20Look, I just need something real cute, because you know my man gonna be there.
00:22:25Which one?
00:22:27Does it matter?
00:22:28Come on.
00:22:30Let me give you a pipe breath.
00:22:31Bye, Pooch.
00:22:32Let me give you a pipe breath.
00:22:32Bye, Pooch.
00:22:51Yeah, Phil?
00:22:58Where's Malik?
00:22:59He's busy.
00:23:00I need to talk to him.
00:23:01But he's busy.
00:23:02Come closer.
00:23:03I don't care about that, Jake.
00:23:04It's important, Ty. Get him for me.
00:23:07I need to talk to him.
00:23:09Okay. Sit down.
00:23:11He'll be out soon.
00:23:18Do you still watch these cartoons?
00:23:20I stopped watching these, like, six months ago.
00:23:33Baby, you look better than all of those girls.
00:23:37I know.
00:23:38I really care about you.
00:23:40You're always saying that.
00:23:42Look, could you go get your brother?
00:23:43Why you don't want to just chill with me?
00:23:45Why you always want to be with my brother?
00:23:49Malik, you don't see me?
00:23:52What you doing here?
00:23:53I have to talk to you.
00:23:54Nah, I'm busy.
00:23:56But it's important.
00:23:59My baby mom's just here. You got the role.
00:24:02So? I'm your baby mom's, too.
00:24:08What'd you say?
00:24:11I'm your new baby mom's.
00:24:17Wait, wait, wait.
00:24:19Tell me you ain't even had your period yet.
00:24:21I got it.
00:24:24Well, I had it.
00:24:26All the time's wrong and you ain't say nothing?
00:24:28I'm sorry.
00:24:30I told you I couldn't mess with you no more
00:24:31if you had your period, baby.
00:24:33It's not like I planned it.
00:24:36I'm sorry, Malik.
00:24:37What you trying to do?
00:24:37Shoot me this job.
00:24:38What's going on in here?
00:24:40Malik.
00:24:40Go in the room.
00:24:41What's? Who is this?
00:24:42Who are you?
00:24:43Don't worry about me.
00:24:44Don't worry about yourself.
00:24:45Malik, who is this girl?
00:24:46Coco, go in the room.
00:24:48Malik.
00:24:48Get in the room.
00:24:49No, no, no.
00:24:50Malik!
00:24:53You really pregnant, baby?
00:24:56Why would I make this up?
00:24:58You can't have no baby.
00:24:59He'll kill you.
00:25:01You don't know him, baby.
00:25:03He did that because he's in shock.
00:25:05I'm his girl.
00:25:06He loves me.
00:25:07Malik already got a girl.
00:25:09And your point?
00:25:10I'm going to be the same thing.
00:25:19Handle that.
00:25:21But, Malik.
00:25:22Get away from me.
00:25:23Hey.
00:25:23But...
00:25:23I want her gone when I come back out of here.
00:25:26But...
00:25:26You better leave now.
00:25:27Don't tell me what to do.
00:25:28Oh.
00:25:59Mm-mm.
00:26:01Ooh, yes!
00:26:04Girl, this is cute, right?
00:26:07If you want to look like a highlighter.
00:26:09Bitch, don't hate. I'm going to try it on.
00:26:11What about this? This is appropriate.
00:26:13Oh, no. Girl, you've been hanging with them trippy white kids too long, girl.
00:26:17Come on. I'm not going to church, okay?
00:26:19I'm trying to turn up.
00:26:22Whoa, girl!
00:26:23I'm about to be-
00:26:26Still cute.
00:26:38I'm ready to go.
00:26:40Where's the dress?
00:26:43Really?
00:26:44That's a good question.
00:26:45You that broke? That dress was like $9.
00:26:47Yeah, you look like a highlighter.
00:26:48Girl, don't hate. At least I don't fit into the background like you.
00:26:50Take it off.
00:26:54Look, hold my purse.
00:26:56Shut up. Hold it. Let me fix my shoe room.
00:27:00Hey!
00:27:00Hey! Get back here!
00:27:03Get back here!
00:27:06Get back here!
00:27:06Get back here! You gotta pay for that!
00:27:07Nice!
00:27:09Yo!
00:27:10Girl, that was crazy!
00:27:13Boop!
00:27:14What the hell, Tanya?
00:27:15You could've just warned us.
00:27:16You just left us there.
00:27:17I totally thought you were right behind me.
00:27:20And guess what?
00:27:21Y'all were!
00:27:22You know what that could've did to my chances at Yale if we got caught, stupid?
00:27:26Ridiculous.
00:27:26Unbelievable.
00:27:27Girl, where's my purse?
00:27:29You asked me to go shopping with you ever again in life, ever.
00:27:32Let it go.
00:27:32There's a party to get ready for.
00:27:34I told you I'm not going.
00:27:36I have a paper due Monday.
00:27:38I said that.
00:27:38Really? Homework?
00:27:39Over a party?
00:27:40Yes.
00:27:40Come on, you're so corny.
00:27:42Really? Come on now.
00:27:43You're corny.
00:27:44It's not about being corny.
00:27:45Tanya's about getting into Yale.
00:27:47Right.
00:27:47After Harvard, the second or third most prestigious school in the country.
00:27:50Tanya, you clearly don't get it, but...
00:27:54You're obsessed with that school, right?
00:27:55Did you even apply to Columbia or City College even?
00:27:59Oh no, she trying to be one of those bougie Negroes who leaves Harlem behind and forgets
00:28:03where they came from.
00:28:04Okay.
00:28:05Or...
00:28:07It's about that sperm donor you're so fascinated with.
00:28:10He went to Yale.
00:28:11Big deal.
00:28:12He was an asshole.
00:28:13He used your mom, had to push out three of y'all.
00:28:16Really?
00:28:16Then he moved back to his real family on the Upper West Side.
00:28:20Forget that fool, cause you don't need to hide in the shadow of that bastard.
00:28:23Move on.
00:28:24What are you talking about?
00:28:25I live in the shadow.
00:28:26Me and my brother.
00:28:27Walk in his shoes.
00:28:28Pay his bills.
00:28:29Bitch, you didn't do it alone.
00:28:31Okay?
00:28:31Okay.
00:28:32I was there too when your ass was too little to do a goddamn thing.
00:28:35Meanwhile, my mama sucking dick in the stairwell.
00:28:39We family.
00:28:40We got through it without that fool, and we getting through now.
00:28:45What you need to do is find his ass, call him out in front of his dumb ass wife and
00:28:49them fat ass kids.
00:28:51They fat.
00:28:52They fat.
00:28:52You know it.
00:28:53They fat.
00:28:53You seen them on Facebook.
00:28:54How do you know they fat?
00:28:55They fat.
00:28:56They fat.
00:28:56What are you talking about?
00:28:57Listen, look, look.
00:28:58I just wanted to see you smile, right?
00:29:01A lot.
00:29:01Now, please go with me to this party.
00:29:03No, I'm not going.
00:29:05Listen.
00:29:05I have dreams and goals.
00:29:07Listen.
00:29:07You can pipe dream about Yale and you play a pimp daddy, all of that stuff afterwards.
00:29:11It's not a pipe dream.
00:29:12It's not about a dream deferred.
00:29:14Um, it's about getting into Yale.
00:29:16I have dreams, goals, aspirations, vision.
00:29:19Unlike you, whose vision doesn't go past tonight in some lame ass nigga in Jordan's.
00:29:24That's your life.
00:29:25Not my life.
00:29:25You gotta make my man lame though.
00:29:27Okay?
00:29:27He always lame.
00:29:28Look at your ex with his fake, religious, bad, rough ass, you know.
00:29:31Really?
00:29:32Rough stink.
00:29:33FYI.
00:29:34I'm not going to Yale because he went to Yale.
00:29:36I'm going because Jane Matilda Bowling went to Yale.
00:29:39The first black woman to graduate Yale Law.
00:29:42The first black woman to become a judge.
00:29:44Thank you very much.
00:29:46And I'm going to go the distance and become a lawyer.
00:29:49Maybe I'll become a judge.
00:29:50And when I do, then I'll come back to Harlem, pick up my whole entire family and move them
00:29:56to Stryvers Row.
00:29:57You're welcome.
00:29:58I'll be your neighbor then.
00:29:59Yes, you will.
00:30:01Okay, that's cute.
00:30:02Inspiring.
00:30:03Kumbaya-ish.
00:30:05But until then, we going to a pop-in party, right?
00:30:08When you hit it big, I'll move my ashy little kids on up to Kalani Street.
00:30:14Okay.
00:30:15Fine.
00:30:15Fine.
00:30:16I'll go.
00:30:17But you got to give me some smoke.

00:31:55We're not perfect, but we're nearly there.
00:31:59I've got silver linings in my head.
00:32:04I think you're a risk I have to take.
00:32:07Cause, boy, we're gold as a ring on your finger, 24K.
00:32:13So you break out with Kirk and it's going to the next.
00:32:16No more cash.
00:32:22Sorry, I'll have to give her.
00:32:24No, I'll help you.
00:32:27There's nobody here I want to hang out with anybody.
00:32:29This is Dennis.
00:32:31What did you drink?
00:32:33What did you, what?
00:32:35Girl, you didn't tell me it was good.
00:32:36You're John Legend.
00:32:37John.
00:32:37Oh, goodness.
00:32:38John.
00:32:39What's up?
00:32:40I ain't see you on here.
00:32:41Let's get you on here.
00:32:44Almost there.
00:32:46Come on.
00:32:47Oh.

00:32:55I see y'all.
00:32:57Bye, y'all.
00:32:59I'm sorry.
00:32:59The party was lit.
00:33:01Oh, my God.
00:33:02I'm sorry.
00:33:03No, it is cool.
00:33:08I'm sorry.
00:33:09It's just, I'm sorry.
00:33:14I live up on the 18th.
00:33:17It was good seeing you tonight, Kalani.
00:33:28Hey.
00:33:29Hey.
00:33:30Mom, is that what?
00:33:32I heard that.
00:33:34Did Jacob come home?
00:33:37No.
00:33:40Baby, isn't it a little late for you to be eating a plate of bacon?
00:33:45Yeah.
00:33:46I don't want it.
00:33:48Did you get that pregnancy test?
00:33:51Yeah.
00:33:53And?
00:33:59Hello? You deaf?
00:34:01I heard you.
00:34:01Okay.
00:34:03You were right.
00:34:06You pregnant?
00:34:08You pregnant?
00:34:10Did you tell Ty?
00:34:14Yeah.
00:34:14Well?
00:34:17He wants me to get rid of it.
00:34:20Are you?
00:34:22I don't know.
00:34:24What should I do?
00:34:25I can't tell you that.
00:34:26You got to figure that out on your own.
00:34:28Well, what would you do?
00:34:30I wouldn't have had sex in the first place.
00:34:32You're a kid.
00:34:34How old is Ty?
00:34:36Um, 13.
00:34:38What is wrong with you?
00:34:40I can't have one decent day.
00:34:41I don't know.
00:34:41I don't know how this happened.
00:34:43I'm sorry.
00:34:43Don't apologize to me.
00:34:45You the one who got pregnant.
00:34:46I can't have one decent day.
00:34:48Without dealing with mess from you.
00:34:50Ma.
00:34:51Jacob.
00:34:52Tanya.
00:34:52Auntie.
00:34:54Like one day apiece.
00:35:00I'm scared, Kalani.
00:35:03I'm scared, Kalani.
00:35:05I'm scared, Kalani.
00:35:06I'm here for you, sis. Okay?
00:35:07I'm scared, Kalani.
00:35:09Come on, Kalani.
00:35:16Done.
00:35:17No.
00:35:18I'm coming.
00:35:33Girls, time to get ready for church.
00:35:35Morning, Ma.
00:35:36What you doing?
00:35:38I've been up since five working on my English paper.
00:35:41Wanna read it?
00:35:43I need you to get ready for church.
00:35:45Oh, wake up, baby.
00:35:47Wake up.
00:35:50Did your brother come home?
00:35:51I haven't spoken to him since yesterday.
00:35:54Call him and remind him of his responsibility to pay his part of the rent.
00:35:58I got a notice under my door, and you know I don't like getting no notices under my door.
00:36:03And wake her up, too.
00:36:05Okay, Ma.
00:36:08Wake up, baby.
00:36:11Baby.
00:36:13Baby.
00:36:14Hey, baby.
00:36:15Hey, baby.
00:36:16Hey.
00:36:16Hey, baby.
00:36:16Hey, baby.
00:36:17Hey.
00:36:17Hey, baby.
00:36:18Hey.
00:36:18Hey.
00:36:18You gotta go to church.
00:36:20I'm not going.
00:36:22Why?
00:36:23I feel like a hypocrite.
00:36:26Nobody in church is perfect.
00:36:28Nobody.
00:36:30I know.
00:36:31You're a weed head.
00:36:33Girl, since you know so much, get your butt up.
00:36:36Shut up.
00:36:49Your phone's ringing.
00:36:52Hello?
00:36:53Jacob, where are you? Ma, calm down.
00:36:56She's been asking for you.
00:36:58She needs you to pay her half for the rent.
00:37:00I'm sorry. She told me to remind you.
00:37:03Honey, I'm gonna be home in a few and I'm gonna take care of that.
00:37:06I decided, though, I can do more for y'all if I don't live there.
00:37:11Please come home.
00:37:12I'm coming home to get my stuff and then I'm out.
00:37:15I gotta go.
00:37:17Bye.
00:37:23You got that money for me?
00:37:29Ta-da.
00:37:37That's all I got right now.
00:37:38This ain't enough, Carmen. I thought you said you got me.
00:37:41I gotta pay what I owe for rent and for the rock or else they'll be coming for me.
00:37:45I was already supposed to settle up yesterday. What am I supposed to do with this, Carmen?
00:37:48Listen. Listen.
00:37:49Next week, I can ask my husband for more.
00:37:52I got you, babe. Come on.
00:37:54I don't even know why you're bringing him up.
00:37:55And next week is too late. I need the money now, Carmen.
00:37:58Leave, please.
00:37:59I gotta go. You said you got me, but obviously you don't.
00:38:02So you know what I'm gonna have to do? I'm gonna have to go out here and get it on
00:38:05my own.
00:38:05Don't go yet, babe.
00:38:07Like I should have been the first place.
00:38:08I gotta go.
00:38:09Please stay. Please.
00:38:13Jacob.
00:38:14I gotta go home.
00:38:19It's hard to keep thinking that good is on your side
00:38:23And nothing good seems to happen in your life
00:38:29And when you do
00:38:32You can get off the ground
00:38:35Been there before
00:38:37And you don't have to stay down
00:38:40I know you're fed up
00:38:42Things just won't let up
00:38:44You've seen better days than these
00:38:47Better days, better days
00:38:49Just keep on hoping
00:38:51Yeah
00:38:52The door will open
00:38:54To see it
00:38:55You've got to believe
00:38:59Miss Joss, how you doing?
00:39:01Good to see you and family here this morning
00:39:03You've seen better days, better days, better days, better days
00:39:09Just keep on hoping
00:39:11The door will open
00:39:14Yes, it will
00:39:14To see it
00:39:15You've got to believe
00:39:17But the thing is
00:39:19Don't stop
00:39:20Your giving
00:39:21Promise of faith
00:39:26Thank you, choir, for that lovely selection
00:39:29That was perfect
00:39:30because it fits perfectly with our message this morning.
00:39:33God is working it out for you.
00:39:37I'll say it one more time.
00:39:39God is working it out for you.
00:39:44Sometimes we feel like he isn't watching us at all.
00:39:48Sometimes we feel like he isn't there.
00:39:51But the Bible tells us that the eyes of the Lord
00:39:54are in every place beholding the evil and the good.
00:40:08What the hell is wrong with you?
00:40:11Nothing.
00:40:12Leave her alone, Chanya.
00:40:15I can't be here. I want to go home.
00:40:20Okay, brother. Maybe that's the best thing.
00:40:23You gotta stop crying, sweetie.
00:40:26You're too pretty to be crying like that.
00:40:33Let me try.
00:40:41And y'all, too, don't y'all know it all.
00:40:43Girl, I'm gonna fix this.
00:40:53All right, go ahead, but go straight home.
00:40:56You understand?
00:40:57Yes.
00:40:59All right, get some rest.
00:41:02I have a situation. I need some help.
00:41:04Yes, it is a beautiful day, a fine day to do business.
00:41:09Now, this is serious.
00:41:10What?
00:41:11What, we lost a little damn common courtesy in his age today?
00:41:15You're a loan shark.
00:41:16I need a loan.
00:41:17Enough said.
00:41:17Can you help?
00:41:19A loan shark?
00:41:20Nah.
00:41:22Nah, you see?
00:41:24I'm just a male elf folk putting down payment on their dreams.
00:41:30All right, fine. What can I help you with?
00:41:31A thousand.
00:41:32That's it?
00:41:33Ain't I hear that sister of yours got her eyes on college?
00:41:36A thousand for now.
00:41:37I'm gonna handle that a different way later.
00:41:41One thousand United States legal title.
00:41:46That's a great choice.
00:41:48All right.
00:41:49I won't even ask for a piece of your sisters either.
00:41:52What?
00:41:53Nigga, you lucky y'all don't smoke you for a move like that?
00:41:56All right, now, juice is 10% a week.
00:41:57You know where to find me.
00:42:02At the restaurant down the block.
00:42:04Bye.
00:42:07Is that Terrence?
00:42:09Yeah.
00:42:10He's on his way.
00:42:16I just want my friend to be happy.
00:42:19Okay?
00:42:25Excited to see me.
00:42:27I can tell.
00:42:29Um, I gotta go check on Bebe.
00:42:38Hey, Bebe, you home yet?
00:42:41I'll be home in a second.
00:42:43I told you to go straight home.
00:42:46You need to rest.
00:42:49I'm gonna be a little late.
00:42:51Are you gonna be okay?
00:42:54All right.
00:42:56Love you.
00:42:58Love you, too.
00:42:59Bye.
00:43:09Love you, too.
00:43:15Bye.
00:43:20I have something I need to tell you.
00:43:23Are you listening?
00:43:27I'm a virgin and I plan on staying that way.
00:43:31You think that's why I want to be with you?
00:43:35Well, Kirk and I used to argue about that all the time.
00:43:38I'm not Kirk.
00:43:40I like you for who you are.
00:43:44Well, you say that, but we don't even know each other.
00:43:49I mean, we know each other, but we don't know each other.
00:43:59Okay, so what do you want to know?
00:44:03Um, what do you plan on doing after school?
00:44:07Well, I'm definitely going to college. Hoping to get into Howard.
00:44:10Howard, that's a good school.
00:44:12Yeah. What about you?
00:44:14I want to go to college, too.
00:44:16Where?
00:44:18Yale.
00:44:21Yale? Wow.
00:44:22I feel like it's a little out of my league,
00:44:24but it's the same way I felt before I applied to the school I'm at now, so...
00:44:29You're right.
00:44:30I definitely didn't know the girl behind those beautiful braids.
00:44:57From now on, only when we're in public, but not like this when we're alone, Ty.
00:45:01What do you mean?
00:45:04Malik, I've been waiting for you.
00:45:08Ty, I thought I told you not to let her back in here.
00:45:10I have to talk to you.
00:45:12About what? I already gave you the bread?
00:45:16I'm keeping it.
00:45:17No, you're not.
00:45:19Look, I got a plan.
00:45:21Ty and I will act like we're a couple, and people will think it's his, but you and I will
00:45:25not.
00:45:25You gonna do what I said.
00:45:27No.
00:45:27I'm keeping the baby.
00:45:29Look, we can figure this out.
00:45:39You think this is a game, Joy?
00:45:41I'm sorry.
00:45:42I'm sorry, Malik.
00:45:43You think I brought him to her?
00:45:44No, stop.
00:45:45Help, please.
00:45:46No.
00:45:48I'll die.
00:45:49Help me.
00:45:50Stop.
00:45:51Please.
00:45:51Hey!
00:45:54You want me?
00:46:40Hey, Kay.
00:46:41It's me.
00:46:43You don't have to call back.
00:46:44I'm just sitting here thinking about Pops.
00:46:50I know you worry about me, but you know I love you.
00:46:56I'm sounding real corny right now.
00:46:58Just sitting here at the crib looking at my life in trash bag.
00:47:03But I gotta go.
00:47:06You know I love you.
00:47:14Kalani?
00:47:15I just left you a message.
00:47:16Hey, playboy.
00:47:17You at the end of the room.
00:47:18Wait.
00:47:19Wait.
00:47:19I can get you your money.
00:47:20Just give me some more.
00:47:22Damn it.
00:47:34Yo, Ma, is that you?
00:47:35No.
00:47:40Yo, Ma.
00:47:50Baby.
00:47:53Baby, what happened?
00:47:55Oh, my God.
00:47:56What happened?
00:47:59She's bleeding.
00:48:03She's bleeding.
00:48:04She's bleeding.
00:48:05She's bleeding.
00:48:05She's bleeding back.
00:48:06My sister.
00:48:07My baby sister.
00:48:08We need an ambulance now.
00:48:09Home Home Tower.
00:48:10See?
00:48:1118th floor.
00:48:12I'm right here, baby.
00:48:13I'm right here.
00:48:14I'm gonna cry.
00:48:15I'm right here, okay?
00:48:16Hey, I need you to tell me what happened, okay?
00:48:19It was my mom.
00:48:20No.
00:48:21He told me he didn't want another baby.
00:48:24Who?
00:48:24Who, baby?
00:48:25Who?
00:48:25Who?
00:48:28Ma-lee.
00:48:37Where's your brother?
00:48:38He ain't here.
00:48:39Man, move.
00:48:40Ma-lee!
00:48:41Where you at?
00:48:42Get your ass out here.
00:48:46Man, that's my sister.
00:48:47What's wrong with you, man?
00:48:48She's a kid, man.
00:48:50She's a baby, you son of a bitch.
00:48:52If I ever see you around again, I'll kill you.
00:48:54You hear me?
00:48:55I'll kill you!
00:49:06Ma-lee!
00:49:24Yeah, Mom.
00:49:25Okay.
00:49:26Okay, I'm on the way.
00:49:26I'll meet you at the hospital.
00:49:27What's going on?
00:49:28My mom needs to meet her at the hospital.
00:49:30Okay, well, I'm going with you.
00:49:36I didn't know.
00:49:37I swear to you, I didn't know this was happening.
00:49:41I have to ask you these questions, Ms. Johnson.
00:49:43I'm sure you understand.
00:49:44Kalani, thank God you're here.
00:49:45What's baby?
00:49:45What happened?
00:49:47They got me out here questioning like I'm a criminal.
00:49:50My baby's in the room down the hall.
00:49:52You're from Child Protective Services?
00:49:55We're asking your mother a few questions.
00:49:57It's standard procedure in matters like this.
00:49:59My mom busts her ass every day.
00:50:01You should be ashamed of yourself.
00:50:03You the brother?
00:50:05It's a friend.
00:50:06Well, then you can't be in here, son.
00:50:08I just wanted to make sure Kalani got here okay.
00:50:11I'll be in the waiting room.
00:50:12Here, if I dare you to need anything.
00:50:18You could give us some privacy too, miss.
00:50:22Of course.
00:50:24Here's my card.
00:50:26I'll reach out to you if I have more questions.
00:50:38Do you know you could cost me my child?
00:50:41I trusted you.
00:50:43What's taking so long?
00:50:45I called 20 minutes to go.
00:50:47This isn't God related.
00:50:52Henry Hobb, God damn it, he's dying.
00:50:57Jacob.
00:50:59Jacob, my love.
00:51:00Jacob.
00:51:02Jacob, my love, baby.
00:51:13I love you.
00:51:16Hello?
00:51:17Hello?
00:51:18Hello?
00:51:18Hello?
00:51:19Who's this?
00:51:20Oh, my God.
00:51:21Where's Jacob?
00:51:24Where's Jacob?
00:51:25Put him on the phone.
00:51:29Oh, my.
00:51:30I'm so sorry.
00:51:33There is so much blood.
00:51:35Jacob's being shot.
00:51:37What?
00:51:37What?
00:51:39Put him on the phone.
00:51:40Put the phone to his ear.
00:51:43Jacob, Mr. Baby, please wake up.
00:51:47Jacob?
00:51:48Can you hear me?
00:51:52Jacob.
00:51:54We came into this world together, Jay.
00:51:57Me and you.
00:51:58You came in one minute before me.
00:52:01To protect me.
00:52:03We have big dreams.
00:52:04We're gonna do big things together.
00:52:06Remember?
00:52:08Remember Jacob?
00:52:09Jacob.
00:52:12What?
00:52:13What's happening?
00:52:13Where's Jacob?
00:52:15Hello?
00:52:39I love you.
00:52:41I'll never leave.
00:52:46You're a part of me.
00:52:51I love you.
00:52:56So much.
00:52:59I'll never leave.
00:53:03You're a part of me.
00:53:06So stay, stay, stay with me.
00:53:26Paul wrote these words in the book of 2 Timothy, chapter 4, verse 7.
00:53:35He says, I have fought the good fight.
00:53:42I have finished the race.
00:53:47I have kept the faith.
00:53:55But there are these times when the loved one we have lost has been taken far too soon.
00:54:07Taken violently.
00:54:10Taken violently.
00:54:15Taken before they could even finish their race.
00:54:24Jacob.
00:54:27Jacob was taken too soon.
00:54:29He was taken too soon.
00:54:34And at times like these, we ask questions.
00:54:42The main question we ask is, why?
00:54:49Why so young?
00:54:54Why so soon?
00:54:58Why this pain?
00:55:00Why this grief?
00:55:02Why this pain?
00:55:02Why did God allow this to happen?
00:55:12Why?
00:55:13Mom, I want you to know.
00:55:15That it is perfectly okay to ask, why?
00:55:20Why?
00:55:24Jesus himself asked why, while on the cross, he claimed Eli, Eli sabachthani, which is
00:55:38to say, my God, my God, why has thou forsaken me?
00:55:53The problem with that question is, most of the time, we'll never find that answer.
00:56:06So beloved, it behooves us this morning to somehow, in some way, change the question
00:56:14from why to, to what.
00:56:20What do I do now?
00:56:23What do we do next?
00:56:29I'll tell you what you do, you grow, you keep loving, you keep praying, you live.
00:56:53Got some good news.
00:56:54I got in, I got accepted, I'm going to Howard.
00:56:57Wow, congratulations.
00:57:02I'm still waiting on some financial aid and I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to take out
00:57:05some student loans, but I'm in there.
00:57:07Whatever you got to do, right?
00:57:09You know, the family's having a party this Friday to celebrate, and you already know.
00:57:18How you feeling?
00:57:20I don't really know how to feel.
00:57:23We're here for you, you know, whatever you need, you know, okay?
00:57:45It's going to be just the most, I've never told you what you were saying.
00:57:52God, Kalani what are you doing here?
00:57:56I'm so sorry.
00:57:58Screw this paper.
00:58:00Screw Miss Umans.
00:58:01I could have come and picked it up for you.
00:58:02You need to be with your family right now.
00:58:06This is about my family.
00:58:25Bethany, please collect the essays.
00:58:30Kalani, if you need more time, I understand.
00:58:32I can give you an extension.
00:58:34No, I have it right here.
00:58:36You finished your paper?
00:58:39This is the real world.
00:58:41There's only extensions in the real world.
00:58:44There's never enough time.
00:59:05I cannot talk to you.
00:59:08You don't have to talk at all.
00:59:14Come here.
00:59:15Come here.
00:59:16Come here, baby.
00:59:17Come here.
00:59:19Come here.
00:59:21Come here.
00:59:23I wish I could take this pain away, but I can't.
00:59:27And I wish I had the worst, but I don't.
00:59:32Okay, but I'm here.
00:59:33I'm here.
00:59:35I'm here.
00:59:37Can you go with me?
00:59:40What's this?
00:59:42I found my father's address.
00:59:46Well, you don't want to do this.
00:59:48Not now.
00:59:50I know his family doesn't know about his son, but I think he needs to know his son is dead.
00:59:55I think you're angry, and you deserve to be.
00:59:58I just want to drop the obituary off.
00:59:59I don't care how he feels about it.
01:00:02I don't care how he feels about it.
01:00:02You think it's as simple as that?
01:00:04What?
01:00:05You knock on the door, it's going to pull you into his arms?
01:00:09What is a family, Kalani?
01:00:11What does it really mean to be a dad?
01:00:15Anybody can be a father.
01:00:17But Jacob's life, Jacob's loss is worthy of a dad.
01:00:26I don't have the answers to that.
01:00:28You're going to have to think this through.
01:00:32I need you.
01:00:34I need you to think it through.
01:00:37I need you to think it through.
01:00:40I can't.
01:00:41I don't have any more room.
01:00:43I don't have the room for it.
01:00:45I can't do it.
01:00:46I can't do everything and be everything to everybody.
01:00:50I can't take my sister to school, make sure she's okay, make her lunch, bury my brother,
01:00:56try to get her to college, try to have a life and be a kid.
01:00:59I can't do it.
01:01:00I can't do it.
01:01:01Take your money.
01:01:02Come on.
01:01:03Take a breath.
01:01:05Take a breath.
01:01:08All you're going through is too much for anyone at any age.
01:01:15And maybe you should take a break.
01:01:17No, no, no.
01:01:18You should take a break for school for a while.
01:01:21It's going to be all right.
01:01:23It won't affect your grades.
01:01:28This is one moment in your life that you have to go through.
01:01:34You will get through it.
01:01:55Hey, little lady.
01:01:57Hey, Mr. Stokes.
01:01:59This elevator's broken, and this one's going to express.
01:02:04Express to where?
01:02:06It's going straight to the top.
01:02:09Well, I live up on 18th.
01:02:11I can walk down.
01:02:12What are you going to do?
01:02:14Wait for the repairman.
01:02:16What else can I do?
01:02:40Oh, here she goes.
01:02:41Keep it moving.
01:02:42Damn.
01:02:43You know I got room for you too, sweetheart.
01:02:45Oh, shut up.
01:02:46Shut up.
01:02:46Watch your mouth, yo.
01:02:47Just keep it moving.
01:02:48College.
01:02:53Hey, ma, the elevator's broken.
01:02:55Hello.
01:02:58How you doing?
01:03:00Mr. Rose called.
01:03:02I'm worried about you.
01:03:05He says I need a mental health break.
01:03:09I don't know, ma.
01:03:09I think he's right.
01:03:11The nonsense is for white folks.
01:03:18Can I fix you something to eat?
01:03:21No, ma, I'm good.
01:03:24Can I run you a bath?
01:03:27Now you sound like me.
01:03:37A letter came for you from Yale.
01:03:42You really applied to the same school as your father?
01:03:48Hmm.
01:03:52You gonna open it?
01:04:01You're so thin.
01:04:03No, they send those rejection letters out by the thousands.
01:04:09There are plenty of other schools right here in New York.
01:04:38there are plenty of groups that I have already done.
01:04:41You don't need to kotzen.
01:04:41Don't worry to keep a burn down.epic
01:04:45reager. That's
01:04:45Let's go.
01:05:28So what'd it say?
01:05:36I got in.
01:05:38I can't believe it.
01:05:39I got in.
01:05:40Let me see.
01:05:46Oh, my God.
01:05:56What about Bae-Bae?
01:06:00Well, what about helping me around here?
01:06:02It's all the way in Connecticut.
01:06:05You're not planning on accepting this, are you?
01:06:09Ma, I'm going.
01:06:11No, you're not.
01:06:14To Yale, of all places, really, Kalani?
01:06:17There are plenty of schools that are closer.
01:06:21Write them and tell them that you decided to take a school that's closer to your family.
01:06:26It's my decision, and I've made it.
01:06:29It's Yale, Ma.
01:06:30Ma, not everybody gets an opportunity like this, but I did.
01:06:38With Jacob gone, you just going to leave?
01:06:45I'm not Jacob, Ma.
01:06:47I'm coming back.
01:06:50I got bills that I need help with every day, Kalani.
01:06:54I need help with, with, with, with Bae-Bae.
01:06:57You got responsibilities here, okay?
01:07:00I'm not the mom.
01:07:01You're the mom.
01:07:04You are.
01:07:05I want to be a kid.
01:07:08Let me be a kid.
01:07:14Mom.
01:07:44I want to be a kid.
01:07:53Remember this dress?
01:07:55You never let me wear it.
01:07:58It's yours.
01:07:59Are you serious?
01:08:01Can I have the shoes, too?
01:08:05Now you're pushing it.
01:08:09All right, take the shoes, girl.
01:08:14I have something from Jacob, too.
01:08:20I don't know why he was hiding it, but I'm glad I found it when I did.
01:08:26This is kind of intense.
01:08:36I think I'll look at it later.
01:08:40Okay.
01:08:41I'm your time.
01:08:48Finally get the room to yourself.
01:08:50It's all I've ever wanted, but now I'm not so sure.
01:08:59You really have to go, Kalani.
01:09:02I want you to make good decisions, smart choices, and those times where you don't have all the answers, I'm
01:09:14just a phone call away.
01:09:19Mom's going to have me doing everything around here.
01:09:22It's a lot, but it's not so bad.
01:09:25Just keep the room clean.
01:09:27Do what she asks of you.
01:09:29And just don't grow up too fast, you know?
01:09:33You'll be my age before you know it.
01:09:36But take care of Mom.
01:09:39You're serious, baby.
01:09:41Okay?
01:09:46Kalani?
01:09:49Can we cuddle tonight?
01:09:53Come on.
01:09:55Come on, come on, come on.
01:09:58But don't hog all the cover.
01:10:01You're hogging it already.
01:10:05Love you, Kalani.
01:10:08Love you, baby.
01:10:28Yep.
01:10:30Alright, I'm coming down.
01:10:31Thanks, Dad.
01:10:32It's supposed to be my.
01:10:34It's supposed to be my.
01:10:48Okay.
01:11:05Bye, Mom.
01:11:14Don't think I was going to say goodbye, did you?
01:11:19I thought you were asleep.
01:11:22I haven't slept in weeks.
01:11:30I made you all your favorites.
01:11:33There's a sweet potato pie in that little bag.
01:11:36I'm saving that for Thanksgiving to make sure your butt comes home.
01:11:40Thanks, Mom.
01:11:45I am so proud of you.
01:11:49I know I haven't said that nearly as much as I should have,
01:11:52but I really am proud of you.
01:11:57Thanks, Mom.
01:12:02Get on out of here.
01:12:18It's a go-get.
01:12:20It goes pretty well with the sorry I missed Christmas with the family Rolex.
01:12:24All I got was corporate.
01:12:26That's a family.
01:12:27Trade?
01:12:33Grand Central, right?
01:12:35Any chance we can make a quick pit stop?
01:12:37I need to stop by the school.
01:12:38Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in.
01:12:43They pulled me back in.
01:12:58Hey, Kalani.
01:13:00You have a minute?
01:13:02Oh.
01:13:05I know this is going to sound weird and uncomfortable and awkward.
01:13:13But do you remember that conversation we had after Jacob died about family?
01:13:18Mm-hmm.
01:13:19Well, I didn't go to my father's house.
01:13:23You were right.
01:13:24There is a difference between a father and a dad.
01:13:29So...
01:13:30I want you to have this.
01:13:33Mm-hmm.
01:13:35Huh.
01:13:39Jacob Johnson.
01:13:42Don't forget me.
01:13:43Oh.
01:13:45Impossible.
01:13:47All right.
01:13:49I'll be in the stands cheering you on.
01:13:54Thanks for everything.
01:14:01Too young to be tired.
01:14:07Too high to be higher.
01:14:12Too far to go further.
01:14:18But too strong to deter her.
01:14:22In my eyes, all I see is my fire.
01:14:28In my heart, all I feel is desire.
01:14:34In my dreams, all I see is my life.
01:14:40Until I live what I see, I'll just strive.
01:14:49You drive.
01:14:51You drive.
01:14:51Mm-hmm.
01:14:55The drive.
01:14:59Hmm-hmm.
01:15:08Give up is not an option.
01:15:13You don't see him like me often
01:15:19When in his mind I've chosen
01:15:24And I made up my mind
01:15:29I'll just strive
01:15:36I'll strive
01:15:43I'll just strive
01:15:48I'll just strive
01:15:53Hello?
01:15:55Hey, it's me.
01:15:57Hey.
01:15:58See you on your way, or?
01:16:00Yeah, I'm actually almost there.
01:16:03What about you?
01:16:04Me too.
01:16:06I didn't realize how far out of the city how it actually is.
01:16:09And in the opposite direction of you.
01:16:13I mean, there's always holidays.
01:16:15That's true.
01:16:19Are you going back for Thanksgiving, or?
01:16:22Yeah.
01:16:24What about you?
01:16:25I'll be back.
01:16:26Yeah.
01:16:28You know, in the meantime, I'm definitely going to miss it.
01:16:31But, uh, you know, especially you.
01:16:36Okay.
01:16:39But, yeah, I'll be back for Thanksgiving.
01:16:43Um, probably should get going, because I'm just about to pull up a second.
01:16:52Okay.
01:16:53All right, well, just remember, Kalani.
01:16:57You deserve it.
01:16:59Well, thanks, Terrence.
01:17:01So do you.
01:17:03Thanks.
01:17:12Your parents must be so proud of you.
01:17:17They are.
01:17:21I won't stop, I won't stop, I'll strive, when it gets hard, I'll just strive, with tears in my eyes,
01:17:38I'll just strive, no matter what, no matter how.
01:17:52And I know now is my time to try.
01:18:19I don't care what they say

01:19:03You're gonna fall for sure
01:19:06And if you're all about your crew
01:19:08Are you an individual?
