00:00:49What is she still doing here?
00:00:52That's for the kids' lunches.
00:00:53Well, Jacob offered, so...
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? You tired?
00:01:07Where's your brother?
00:01:08Good morning.
00:01:10He's just getting up.
00:01:11I gotta get back to work.
00:01:13Okay, well, I left a plate for you in the fridge
00:01:15for when you get home.
00:01:16All right, talk to you later.
00:01:17I hate you, Kona.
00:01:18Love you.
00:01:18Um, who was she?
00:01:20Who are you?
00:01:21She was just leaving.
00:01:24Let's go. Let's go.
00:01:28I don't eat what we have.
00:01:30Yo, thanks for this sis, Kalani.
00:01:31I hope you protected yourself, seriously, from fleas.
00:01:36Remember, there's a no pet rule in the building.
00:01:39Haters, dead ass, both 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, Ma?
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?
00:02:20Heat.
00:02:21Good, baby.
00:02:21And how does a living thing convert energy into heat?
00:02:27Sex?
00:02:28Nah, you better not run on your tennis.
00:02:34Good morning, Kamane.
00:02:35How are you?
00:02:36Um, ladies, usual.
00:02:42I thought you 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.
00:02:52Eh, girl, what'd it do?
00:02:55Uh-uh.
00:02:55What 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, that's good.
00:03:03What up, Andre?
00:03:04How you doing?
00:03:05Come on, come see me no more.
00:03:05Look, I train.
00:03:06I'm trying to get you to school.
00:03:07Come on, girl.
00:03:08You know you're not too busy for your own men.
00:03:10Oh, boy, boy, boy.
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?
00:03:50You making 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,
00:04:01so I just thought I'd come through.
00:04:02Aw, it's easy.
00:04:04Man, this is my style.
00:04:06Tell me.
00:04:06Kirk, I said hi if you see him.
00:04:08You still your 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.
00:04:54Oh, really?
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.
00:05:35Bethany's 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.
00:05:46Kalani, 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 could 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. I can be behind it.
00:06:31And, and, um, for helping with the application fees.
00:06:35I don't know what I want to do if I don't get in.
00:06:40The great what ifs of life.
00:06:42It either propels you to greatness or stunts you into immobility.
00:06:50Your destiny is gonna 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 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.
00:08:15All 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.
00:09:02All the ways in which your dreams are often undermined.
00:09:07You're gonna have to get through it.
00:09:09And you...
00:09:11You 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.
00:09:39Are 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? I 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.
00:10:18Kalani, 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.
00:10:28Don'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 planned 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.
00:11:02Let's get to the crib.
00:11:03I'm with my friends tonight, Malik.
00:11:05I'm good.
00:11:07You headed back to 1 55th?
00:11:08I can get you a ride if that's what you ask.
00:11:10Well, you took me for a ride a couple times last month and then I never saw you again.
00:11:16Come on, you know I love you, shorty.
00:11:18I'm going to hop in the whip so we can get to the crib.
00:11:40See?
00:11:41I can take it.
00:11:43Home, I'm so best.
00:11:47I could eat.
00:12:07Hey, Dad.
00:12:08Hey, Pastor.
00:12:09Hey.
00:12:09Hey, Kalani.
00:12:11How 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 treating you?
00:12:20Son, you're not going to help her with her backpack?
00:12:24Talk to you better than that.
00:12:25Just my bad, Dad.
00:12:27Me.
00:12:27Offer something to drink?
00:12:28I got you.
00:12:29Oh, I'm fine, really.
00:12:30Good.
00:12:31You guys have homework?
00:12:32Yeah, a big paper.
00:12:34All right.
00:12:34Well, you know you're welcome to stay and have dinner with us.
00:12:38Just tell your mom.
00:12:40Thanks, Pastor.
00:12:41All right.
00:12:42I have a big meeting at the church, so I'll be back in a couple of hours.
00:12:45All right, Pop.
00:12:45Love you.
00:12:46Take care.
00:12:47I've got my eye 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.
00:13:28Okay, what just happened?
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.
00:13:40You don't want me.
00:13:41And you don't care about me.
00:13:43Yeah.
00:13:45I care about you.
00:13:48Then prove it.
00:14:08Kurt.
00:14:11I said no.
00:14:13Relax, relax.
00:14:14I said no.
00:14:15What?
00:14:16Stop.
00:14:18Stop, Kurt.
00:14:20Stop, Kurt.
00:14:23Stop.
00:14:25Stop.
00:14:25Stop.
00:14:36Hey, baby.
00:14:38It's good.
00:14:39Hey, where you going?
00:14:41I'm a future wife.
00:14:56I wonder where all my children are.
00:14:59Hey, mom.
00:15:00It's got you so out of breath.
00:15:01That's it.
00:15:03Where's baby?
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.
00:15:14Would you say this?
00:15:15No.
00:15:16Baby.
00:15:18Do you know what time it is?
00:15:20I'm sorry.
00:15:21I didn't think he was home yet.
00:15:22I 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 that.
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?
00:16:44You 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.
00:17:09He 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.
00:17:36Last 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.
00:18:06You want to look very soon.
00:18:06llegar you up to 3 empp?
00:18:23You're coming.
00:18:23You can paddle your stars.
00:18:24You're coming.
00:18:24It's not aïj%.
00:18:27You're coming.
00:18:28You're coming.
00:18:35Congratulations, Yad.
00:18:49Mom, are you okay?
00:18:54Can I plead your precious blood over my mother?
00:18:58Keep Bebe and Jacob in your hand according to your will, God.
00:19:04In Jesus' name, Amen.
00:19:09Amen.
00:19:23Get up! Get up!
00:19:29Mom, what are you doing?
00:19:31Call your brother and tell him to come get his stuff. I've had enough. He'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. I won't have this in my house.
00:19:51Mom.
00:19:52Mom.
00:19:53Mom, please stop.
00:19:54If you need to do, just 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.
00:20:01Mom.
00:20:02Mom.
00:20:19Mom.
00:20:20Bianca, hurry up!
00:20:21Calm down, Ma. You're pressured.
00:20:22You need to do what I told you to do. Get Jacob on the phone. That's what you need to
00:20:25do.
00:20:25Hurry up.
00:20:29Ma.
00:20:30Ma!
00:20:31Kalani, 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? Have you lost your mind?
00:20:56Ma, about your stash and she flushed it.
00:20:59She flushed it? You're kidding me right now.
00:21:01She could get me killed. She could get all of us killed.
00:21:05You're the one who gonna 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.
00:21:14You know what?
00:21:15Just keep Mom out of my room, alright?
00:21:17I gotta go handle this.
00:21:41Hey.
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?
00:21:50You don't know nothing about my life, so shut up. Crystal, for real.
00:21:53Hey, she's your cousin.
00:21:56Anyway, we gonna shop it up, right?
00:21:59Cause you know I gotta look real cute.
00:22:00Y'all calling me to the party tonight.
00:22:03We gotta get ready.
00:22:05Go with Crystal.
00:22:06Uh-uh.
00:22:07You know Crystal can't.
00:22:08She on that leash for the Lord.
00:22:10Please.
00:22:10And I'm not going by myself.
00:22:11No.
00:22:11No.
00:22:12See, if your brother was going, that's a different story.
00:22:15But I have choir practice.
00:22:17I'm not trying to hang with you.
00:22:18He did.
00:22:18I'm not going, Tyenne.
00:22:20Look.
00:22:21I 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.
00:22:51Yeah, Phillip.
00:22:58Where's Malik?
00:22:59He's busy.
00:23:00I need to talk to him.
00:23:01But he's busy.
00:23:02Coco's here.
00:23:03I don't care about that chick.
00:23:05It's important, Ty.
00:23:06Get him for me.
00:23:07I need to talk to him.
00:23:09Okay, sit down.
00:23:11He'll be all 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.
00:23:50You 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.
00:23:59Yeah, my baby mom's just here.
00:24:00You got the role.
00:24:02So?
00:24:03So?
00:24:03I'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.
00:24:23I got it.
00:24:23Well, I had it.
00:24:26Home 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 if 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?
00:24:37She'll be the general.
00:24:38What's going on in here?
00:24:40Malik.
00:24:40Go in the room.
00:24:41Who 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?
00:25:19Handle 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.
00:25:26You better leave now.
00:25:27Don't tell me what to do.
00:25:41Tell me what you need, what you want, what you need for me.
00:25:45I see what you want, but what you got to do with me.
00:25:49Come on, too.
00:25:51Come on, too.
00:25:51Come on, too.
00:25:52Come on, too.
00:25:53Come on, this is cute.
00:25:55Come on, this is cute.
00:25:57Come on, this is cute.
00:25:59Mm-mm.
00:26:01Oh, yes!
00:26:03Girl, this is cute, right?
00:26:07If you want to look like a highlighter.
00:26:09Bitch, don't hate.
00:26:10I'm going to try it on.
00:26:11What about this?
00:26:12This is appropriate.
00:26:13Come on, no.
00:26:14Girl, you've been hanging with them trippy white kids too long.
00:26:17Girl, come on.
00:26:18Come on.
00:26:18I'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?
00:26:45That dress was like $9.
00:26:47Yeah, you look like a highlighter.
00:26:48Girl, don't hate.
00:26:49At least I don't fit into the background like you.
00:26:50Take it off.
00:26:52Girl, shoot me.
00:26:54Look, hold on first.
00:26:56Shut up.
00:26:57Hold it.
00:26:57Let me fix my shoe room.
00:27:00Hey!
00:27:00Hey!
00:27:01Get back here!
00:27:03Get back here!
00:27:05Get back here!
00:27:06Get back here!
00:27:06You gotta pay for that!
00:27:09Yo, girl, that was crazy.
00:27:13Boop!
00:27:14What the hell, Tani?
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
00:27:24if 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.
00:27:32Ever.
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?
00:27:39Homework over a party?
00:27:40Yes.
00:27:40Come on, you're so corny.
00:27:42Really?
00:27:42Come on now.
00:27:43You're corny.
00:27:44It's not about being corny.
00:27:45Tania's about getting into Yale.
00:27:47Right.
00:27:47After Harvard, the second or third most prestigious school in the country.
00:27:50Tania, you clearly don't get it, but...
00:27:54You're obsessed with that school, right?
00:27:56Did you even apply to Columbia or City College even?
00:27:59Oh, no.
00:27:59She trying to be one of those bougie Negroes
00:28:01who leaves Harlem behind and forgets where they came from.
00:28:04Okay.
00:28:05Or...
00:28:07What's about that sperm donor you're so fascinated with?
00:28:10He went to Yale.
00:28:12Big 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.
00:28:21Because 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.
00:28:34Meanwhile, my mama sucking dick in the stairwell.
00:28:39We family.
00:28:40We got through it without that fool.
00:28:42And we getting through now.
00:28:45What you need to do is find his ass,
00:28:47call him out in front of his dumb ass wife and them fat ass kids.
00:28:51They 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're 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 laugh.
00:29:01Now, please, go with me to this party.
00:29:03No.
00:29:04I'm not going.
00:29:05I have dreams and goals.
00:29:06Listen.
00:29:07You can pipe dream about Yale and you play a pimp daddy.
00:29:10All 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 and some lame ass nigga in Jordans.
00:29:24That's your life.
00:29:25Not my life.
00:29:25Why you gotta make my man lame though?
00:29:27Okay?
00:29:27Look 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 gonna 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.
00:30:01That'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.

00:31:12I know.
00:31:16I swear I saw hold in your eyes.
00:31:20The way you looked at me.
00:31:25If I knew you were coming, I would've got here a lot earlier.
00:31:29Zad, stop.
00:31:31Come here.
00:32:13So you break out with Kirk and it's going to the night.
00:32:16No more kids.
00:32:22Sorry, I have to give her.
00:32:24No, I'll help you.
00:32:27There's nobody here I want to hang out with anybody.
00:32:29It's Dennis.
00:32:31What did you drink?
00:32:34Girl, you didn't tell me it was good.
00:32:36John, John.

00:32:52That's a pretty coat on him.
00:32:54Lonnie, I'm going. I see y'all.
00:32:57I'm sorry.
00:32:58Bye y'all.
00:32:59The party was lit.
00:33:01Oh my gosh, sorry.
00:33:03It is cool.
00:33:08I'm sorry, it's just, I'm sorry.
00:33:14I live up on the 18th.
00:33:17It was good seeing you tonight, Kalani.
00:33:27Hey.
00:33:29Hey.
00:33:30Mom was out there.
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.
00:33:52And?
00:33:59Hello, you deaf?
00:34:01I heard you.
00:34:01Okay.
00:34:04You 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're 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.
00:34:53Like one day apiece.
00:35:00I'm scared, Kalani.
00:35:06I'm here for you, sis.
00:35:07Okay?
00:35:16Oh, okay.
00:35:20Um, your mask says your mask's morning.
00:35:41I want to do something wrong.
00:35:42Oh.
00:35:43I need you to get ready for church.
00:35:45Oh, wake up, baby. Wake 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
00:35:57to pay his part of the rent.
00:35:58I got a notice under my door,
00:36:00and you know I don't like getting no notices under my door.
00:36:03And wake her up, too.
00:36:05Okay, Mom.
00:36:08Wake up, baby.
00:36:11Baby.
00:36:13Baby.
00:36:14Baby.
00:36:14Baby.
00:36:16No.
00:36:18We 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.
00:36:36What up?
00:36:49Your phone's ringing.
00:36:52Hello?
00:36:53Jacob?
00:36:54Where are you?
00:36:55Mom, 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.
00:37:01She told me to remind you.
00:37:03Honey, I'm gonna be home in a few,
00:37:04and I'm gonna take care of that.
00:37:06I decided, though,
00:37:07I 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?
00:37:29Got it.
00:37:37That's all I got right now.
00:37:38This ain't enough, Carmen.
00:37:40I thought you said you got me.
00:37:41I gotta pay what I owe for rent and for The Rock,
00:37:43or else they'll be coming for me.
00:37:45I was already supposed to settle up yesterday.
00:37:47What am I supposed to do with this, Carmen?
00:37:48Listen.
00:37:48Listen.
00:37:50Next week, I can ask my husband for more.
00:37:52I got you, babe.
00:37:53Come on.
00:37:54I don't even know why you bringing him up.
00:37:55And next week is too late.
00:37:57I need the money now, Carmen.
00:37:58Don't leave.
00:37:59Please.
00:37:59I gotta go.
00:38:00You said you got me, but obviously you don't.
00:38:02So you know what I'm gonna have to do?
00:38:03I'm gonna have to go out here and get it on my own,
00:38:05like I should have in the first place.
00:38:07Don't go yet, babe.
00:38:07You didn't need breakfast.
00:38:08Come on.
00:38:08I gotta go.
00:38:09Please stay.
00:38:10Please.
00:38:10Please.
00:38:13Jacob.
00:38:14I gotta go home.
00:38:19It's hard to keep thinking that good is on your side.
00:38:24And nothing good seems to happen in your life.
00:38:30And when you do, you can get off the ground.
00:38:35You've been there before.
00:38:38And 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.
00:38:48Better days.
00:38:48Better days.
00:38:49Better days.
00:38:50Just keep on hoping.
00:38:52Yeah.
00:38:52The door will open.
00:38:54To see it, you've got to believe.
00:39:12But the thing is, don't stop your giving.
00:39:22Promise of faith.
00:39:25Whoa.
00:39:26Thank you, choir.
00:39:27For that lovely selection.
00:39:29That was perfect because it fits perfectly with our message this morning.
00:39:34God is working it out for you.
00:39:37I'll say it one more time.
00:39:39God is.
00:39:40God is.
00:39:40Working it out.
00:39:42Working it out.
00:39:42For you.
00:39:43For 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 are in every place beholding the evil
00:39:57and the good.
00:40:08What the hell is wrong with you?
00:40:10Nothing.
00:40:11Leave her alone, Chanya.
00:40:15I can't be here.
00:40:17I want to go home.
00:40:20Okay, buddy.
00:40:21Maybe that's the best thing.
00:40:23You've got to 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.
00:40:43I'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.
00:41:04I need some help.
00:41:05Yes, it is.
00:41:06A beautiful day.
00:41:07A fine day to do better.
00:41:09No, this is serious.
00:41:10What?
00:41:11What have 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.
00:41:30What can I help you with?
00:41:31A thousand.
00:41:32That's it?
00:41:33Ain't I hear that sister you always 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 sister's either.
00:41:52What?
00:41:53Nigga, you lucky I don't smoke you for a move like that.
00:41:56All right, now Drew's 10% a week.
00:41:57You know where to find her.
00:42:02At the restaurant down the block.
00:42:05Bye.
00:42:07Was 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.
00:42:26Excited to see me.
00:42:27I can tell.
00:42:29I gotta go check on Bebe.
00:42:38Hey Bebe, you home yet?
00:42:41I'll be home in a second.
00:42:43Okay.
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.
00:43:20I have something I need to tell you.
00:43:23You're 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.
00:44:00So, 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.
00:44:09Hoping to get into Howard.
00:44:11Howard, that's a good school.
00:44:12Yeah.
00:44:13What about you?
00:44:14I want to go to college too.
00:44:16Where?
00:44:18Yale.
00:44:19Yale?
00:44:21Wow.
00:44:22I feel like it's a little out of my league, but it's the same way I felt before I applied
00:44:27to 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?
00:45:13I 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
00:45:25know...
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 it's a game choice?
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!
00:45:46No!
00:45:47Ty!
00:45:49Help me!
00:45:50Stop!
00:45:51Help me!
00:45:54You're my, you?
00:46:26Moen!
00:46:40Hey, Kay, it's me.
00:46:43You don't have to call back.
00:46:45I'm just in 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 at the crib looking at my life in trash bag.
00:47:04I 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, wait.
00:47:19I can get you your money.
00:47:20Just give me some more t-
00:47:34Yo Ma, is that you?
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.
00:48:05She's bleeding.
00:48:05She's bleeding back.
00:48:06My sister, my baby sister, we need an ambulance now.
00:48:09Poho Tower.
00:48:10See?
00:48:1118-4.
00:48:12I'm right here, baby.
00:48:13I'm right here.
00:48:14You're 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?
00:48:28Mahli?
00:48:37Where's your brother?
00:48:38He ain't here.
00:48:39Man, move!
00:48:40Mahli!
00:48:41Where are 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!
00:48:52Boy, good boy, good boy, good boy!
00:48:52If I ever see you around again, I'll kill you!
00:48:55You hear me?
00:48:55I'll kill you!
00:49:06Malik!
00:49:24Yeah, Mom.
00:49:25Okay. Okay, I'm on the way. I'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.
00:49:32Okay.
00:49:37I didn't know. I swear to you, I didn't know this was happening.
00:49:41I have to ask you these questions, Ms. Johnson. I'm sure you understand.
00:49:44Kalani, thank God you're here.
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. You should be ashamed of yourself.
00:50:03You the brother?
00:50:04It'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. Here if I'd have you to need anything.
00:50:18You could give us some privacy too, miss.
00:50:22Of course.
00:50:24Here's my card.
00:50:27I'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 cost 20 minutes to go.
00:50:47This isn't God related.
00:50:48I must get angrily.
00:50:52Every off.
00:50:54God damn it is me.
00:50:58Jacob.
00:50:59Jacob, my love.
00:51:00Jacob.
00:51:02Jacob, my God.
00:51:04Oh, my God.
00:51:13Oh, my God.
00:51:16Hello?
00:51:17Hello?
00:51:18Hello?
00:51:18Hello?
00:51:18Who'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.
00:51:38What?
00:51:38Put 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.
00:52:00To protect me.
00:52:03We have big dreams.
00:52:04We're gonna do big things together.
00:52:06Remember.
00:52:07Remember, Jacob.
00:52:12What's happening?
00:52:13Where's Jacob?
00:52:15Hello?
00:52:37I love you.
00:52:41I'll never leave.
00:52:44I love you.
00:52:45I'll never leave.
00:52:45You're a part of me.
00:52:50I love you.
00:52:55You're a part of me.
00:52:56So much.
00:52:59I'll never leave.
00:53:02You're a part of me.
00:53:06I love you.
00:53:07So much.
00:53:11I'll never leave.
00:53:13Stay with me.
00:53:16Stay with me.
00:53:26Paul wrote these words in the book of 2 Timothy, chapter 4, verse 7.
00:53:35He says,
00:53:36He says,
00:53:36I 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.
00:54:15Taken before they could even finish their race.
00:54:24Jacob.
00:54:26Jacob 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,
00:54:45Why?
00:54:49Why so young?
00:54:54Why so soon?
00:54:58Why this pain?
00:55:00Why this grief?
00:55:02Why did God allow this to happen?
00:55:13I want you to know that it is perfectly okay to ask why.
00:55:20Why?
00:55:24Jesus himself asked why.
00:55:27While on the cross,
00:55:31He claimed,
00:55:34Eli, Eli, sabachthani.
00:55:37Why?
00:55:38Which is to say,
00:55:39My God, my God.
00:55:40Why?
00:55:44Has thou forsaken me?
00:55:53The problem with that question is,
00:55:59Most of the time, we'll never find that answer.
00:56:05So, beloved, it behooves us this morning to sometime, 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.
00:56:31You grow.
00:56:35You keep loving.
00:56:36You keep praying.
00:56:38You live.
00:56:53Got some good news.
00:56:54I got in.
00:56:55I got accepted.
00:56:55I'm going to Howard.
00:56:56Oh, wow.
00:56:58Congratulations.
00:57:02I'm still waiting on some financial aid, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to take out some student
00:57:05loans, but I'm in there.
00:57:08Whatever 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.
00:57:26Whatever you need.
00:57:28Okay.
00:57:51My god, Kalani, what are you doing here?
00:57:55I'm so sorry.
00:57:58Screw this paper.
00:58:00Screw Miss Umans, I could have come and picked it up for you.
00:58:03You 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 I can give you an extension.
00:58:33No, 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.
00:59:09You don't have to talk to you.
00:59:09I cannot take you.
00:59:14I can't take you.
00:59:15Come here.
00:59:19Come here.
00:59:21Come here.
00:59:22Come here.
00:59:23Come here.
00:59:23Come here.
00:59:23I wish I could take this pain away, but I can't.
00:59:27You know?
00:59:28I wish I had the worst, but I don't.
00:59:32Okay, but I'm here.
00:59:34I'm here.
00:59:36I'm here.
00:59:37Can you go with me?
00:59:40What's this?
00:59:42I found my father's address.
00:59:47You don't want to do this, not now.
00:59:50I know his family doesn't know about his son,
00:59:53but 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.
01:00:00I don't care how he feels about it.
01:00:02Do you think it's as simple as that?
01:00:04What, you knock on the door,
01:00:06it'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,
01:00:19Jacob's loss,
01:00:21is 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.
01:00:45I can't do everything
01:00:48and be everything to everybody.
01:00:50I can't take my sister to school,
01:00:52make sure she's okay,
01:00:53make her lunch,
01:00:54bury my brother,
01:00:56try to get her to college,
01:00:57try 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
01:01:10is too much for anyone
01:01:13at 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.
01:01:27This is one moment in your life
01:01:30that 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
01:02:01and this one's gone express.
01:02:04Express to where?
01:02:07It'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?
01:02:37I know you don't know about us.
01:02:39Oh, here she goes.
01:02:41Keep it moving.
01:02:42Damn.
01:02:43You know I got room for you too, yo.
01:02:45Oh, shut up.
01:02:46Listen, watch your mouth, yo.
01:02:47Just keep it moving.
01:02:48College.
01:02:53Hey, Ma, the elevator's broken.
01:02:55You know?
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.
01:03:08I don't know, Ma.
01:03:10I 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.
01:03:24I'll run you a bath.
01:03:27How 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 going to open it?
01:04:01You're so thin.
01:04:03You know, they send those rejection letters out by the thousands.
01:04:09There are plenty of other schools right here in New York.
01:04:12I've got a back.
01:04:20I don't know.
01:04:24I don't know.
01:04:30I don't know.
01:04:58To be continued...
01:05:07To be continued...
01:05:36I got in.
01:05:38I can't believe it. I 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?
01:06:09Mom, 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, Mom.
01:06:32Not everybody gets an opportunity like this, but I did.
01:06:38With Jacob gone, you just gonna, you just gonna leave?
01:06:45I'm not Jacob, Mom.
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.
01:07:53Remember this dress?
01:07:55You never let me wear it.
01:07:58It's yours.
01:07:59Are you serious?
01:08:02Can 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.
01:08:39I'll look at it later.
01:08:40Okay.
01:08:41I'm your time.
01:08:47Finally get the room to yourself.
01:08:49I know it'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.
01:09:15Mom's going to have to go, Kalani.
01:09:19Okay.
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, do what she asks of you, and just don't grow up too fast, you know?
01:09:33You'll be my age before you know it, but take care of mom.
01:09:39You're serious, baby.
01:09:41Okay?
01:09:47Kalani?
01:09:49Can we cuddle tonight?
01:09:53Come on.
01:09:55Come, come, come, come, come on.
01:09:58But don't hog all the cover.
01:10:01You're hogging it already.
01:10:06Love you, Kalani.
01:10:08Love you, baby.
01:10:09Love you, baby.
01:10:24Love you, baby.
01:10:28Yep.
01:10:30All right.
01:10:31I'm coming down.
01:10:31Bye.
01:10:33Bye.
01:11:05Bye, Mom.
01:11:14Didn'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.
01:11:34There'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, but I really am proud of you.
01:11:57Thanks, Mom.
01:12:02Get on out of here.
01:12:18It's a go-get.
01:12:19It goes pretty well with the sorry-I-missed-Christmas-with-a-family Rolex.
01:12:24All I got was corporate.
01:12:26It'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.
01:12:58Hey, Kalani.
01:13:00You have a minute?
01:13:02Oh.
01:13:06I know this is going to sound weird and uncomfortable and awkward, but do you remember that conversation
01:13:16we 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.
01:13:30So, I want you to have this.
01:13:39Jacob's house.
01:13:42Don't forget me.
01:13:44Oh.
01:13:45Impossible.
01:13:47All right.
01:13:49I'll be in the stands cheering you on.
01:13:53Thanks for everything.
01:13:57Yeah.
01:14:01Too young to be tired.
01:14:06Too high to be higher.
01:14:12Too far to go further.
01:14:17But 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.
01:14:39Until I live what I see, I'll just strive.
01:14:50Mm-hmm.
01:14:56Drive.
01:15:08Givin' up is not an option.
01:15:14You don't see him like me often.
01:15:20When in his mind I've chosen,
01:15:24And I made up my mind.
01:15:29I'll just strive.
01:15:34Mm-hmm.
01:15:37I'll strive.
01:15:43I'll strive.
01:15:48I'll strive.
01:15:51I'll strive.
01:15:52Hello?
01:15:55Hey, it's me.
01:15:57Hey.
01:15:58See you on your way, or?
01:16:00Yeah.
01:16:01I'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 Howard 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.
01:16:45I probably should get going because I'm just about to pull up a second.
01:16:52Okay.
01:16:53All right.
01:16:54All right.
01:16:54All right.
01:16:54Well, just remember, Kalani.
01:16:57You deserve it.
01:17:00Thanks, Terrence.
01:17:01So do you.
01:17:03Thanks.
01:17:12Your parents must be so proud of you.
01:17:17They are.
01:17:34I'll give you my life.
01:17:35With tears in my eyes, I'll just strive No matter what, no matter how
01:17:52And I know now is my time
