1
00:00:01,769 --> 00:00:03,207
When I was a kid,
2
00:00:03,255 --> 00:00:06,166
art was just a bunch
of old white guys from Europe
3
00:00:06,191 --> 00:00:08,409
painting other old white guys.
4
00:00:08,715 --> 00:00:11,770
And then I saw my first Basquiat.
5
00:00:11,802 --> 00:00:12,927
It was art,
6
00:00:12,928 --> 00:00:15,099
but it was also confrontational,
7
00:00:15,161 --> 00:00:16,305
revolutionary,
8
00:00:16,306 --> 00:00:19,517
and somehow undeniably black.
9
00:00:19,518 --> 00:00:21,911
It changed everything for me,
10
00:00:21,950 --> 00:00:25,690
and because of that,
my house is festooned
11
00:00:25,691 --> 00:00:28,901
with the works of prominent
African-American artists.
12
00:00:28,902 --> 00:00:32,113
"Soul Power" by Fahamu Pecou.
13
00:00:32,114 --> 00:00:35,116
A bold painting by a bold artist.
14
00:00:35,117 --> 00:00:37,827
Oh, I love this one
because it tells the world
15
00:00:37,828 --> 00:00:40,079
that black people can swim,
16
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:41,706
even though I can't.
17
00:00:41,707 --> 00:00:44,417
And this is one of the last pieces
18
00:00:44,418 --> 00:00:48,421
the great Noah Davis did
before he passed away.
19
00:00:48,422 --> 00:00:50,464
And the man who did Obama's portrait
20
00:00:50,465 --> 00:00:52,216
did my T-shirt,
21
00:00:52,217 --> 00:00:54,301
because Kehinde Wiley is smart enough
22
00:00:54,302 --> 00:00:56,679
to get paid while he's still alive.
23
00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,514
Good morning, family.
24
00:00:58,515 --> 00:01:00,891
- Morning, babe.
- Mm.
25
00:01:00,892 --> 00:01:04,061
Notice anything different about me?
26
00:01:04,062 --> 00:01:05,986
Hmm. You're getting less needy?
27
00:01:06,049 --> 00:01:08,607
- No, that can't be that.
- Mm.
28
00:01:12,571 --> 00:01:14,244
How is it possible
29
00:01:14,291 --> 00:01:16,574
that in a house so full of people,
30
00:01:16,575 --> 00:01:20,734
I can feel so alone... and so cold?
31
00:01:24,666 --> 00:01:26,164
Dre?
32
00:01:26,218 --> 00:01:29,942
Is this an original Noah Davis?
33
00:01:31,532 --> 00:01:33,303
Oui, Lynette.

06x08 - O Mother Where Art Thou
36
00:01:38,655 --> 00:01:40,217
I never knew
37
00:01:40,248 --> 00:01:41,891
- you were an art lover.
- Oh.
38
00:01:41,892 --> 00:01:44,761
Lynette loves anything
that gets better with age, son.
39
00:01:44,832 --> 00:01:46,746
Wine, art, moi.
40
00:01:48,659 --> 00:01:52,245
I have a bachelor's degree
in Visual Arts from Spelman.
41
00:01:52,246 --> 00:01:54,414
I wanted to study Art History,
42
00:01:54,415 --> 00:01:55,498
but they talked me out of it.
43
00:01:55,499 --> 00:01:57,041
- Oh, boy.
- One of the last things
44
00:01:57,042 --> 00:01:58,751
- me and Ruby agreed on.
- Mm-hmm.
45
00:01:58,752 --> 00:02:01,129
That and that cheese is not a dessert,
46
00:02:01,130 --> 00:02:02,557
no matter what Europe says.
47
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,467
We did you a favor, son.
48
00:02:06,468 --> 00:02:09,012
Name me one successful Black artist.
49
00:02:09,013 --> 00:02:11,931
Unh-unh. Besides the guy who
makes them happy little trees.
50
00:02:11,932 --> 00:02:14,434
Mama, I keep telling you,
we cannot claim Bob Ross
51
00:02:14,435 --> 00:02:15,685
just because he has an afro.
52
00:02:15,686 --> 00:02:17,301
He ain't one of us.
53
00:02:17,326 --> 00:02:20,648
Well, I'm gonna have to see
his mama before I'm convinced.
54
00:02:20,649 --> 00:02:22,541
- Believe. That right?
- Think about it.
55
00:02:22,542 --> 00:02:23,568
Hey.
56
00:02:23,569 --> 00:02:26,154
This is what I was born into.
57
00:02:26,155 --> 00:02:28,406
Well, Dre, don't listen to them.
58
00:02:28,407 --> 00:02:30,983
- Thank you.
- You and Rainbow have great taste.
59
00:02:31,008 --> 00:02:33,872
Okay, first off, Rainbow has
horrible taste. That's all me.
60
00:02:33,928 --> 00:02:35,107
All right?
61
00:02:35,139 --> 00:02:38,058
She wanted to hang
stupid family pictures up.
62
00:02:38,059 --> 00:02:40,560
Whoa, wait.
You chose all those paintings?
63
00:02:40,561 --> 00:02:42,062
I thought they came with the house.
64
00:02:42,063 --> 00:02:44,898
I tried to take these philistines
65
00:02:44,899 --> 00:02:47,317
to the Kerry James Marshall
exhibit, but no.
66
00:02:47,318 --> 00:02:49,653
They wanted to go to a birthday party
67
00:02:49,654 --> 00:02:51,863
at a trampoline park.
68
00:02:51,864 --> 00:02:54,866
The trampoline park had pictures
of people on the trampoline.
69
00:02:54,867 --> 00:02:56,743
That's art, too, Dad.
70
00:02:56,744 --> 00:02:59,148
And I got to see the Mona Lisa
of ankle breaks.
71
00:02:59,194 --> 00:03:00,914
- Mm-mh.
- The way his wife laughed
72
00:03:00,915 --> 00:03:02,707
after he hurt himself?
73
00:03:02,708 --> 00:03:04,292
- They're probably divorced by now.
- Oh, yeah.
74
00:03:04,293 --> 00:03:07,192
Andre, if you ever want
to talk about art,
75
00:03:07,217 --> 00:03:08,528
you can do it with me.
76
00:03:08,553 --> 00:03:09,673
Really?
77
00:03:09,674 --> 00:03:12,801
Oh, it is one of my favorite things.
78
00:03:12,802 --> 00:03:15,220
- I am a member at LACMA...
- Ooh.
79
00:03:15,221 --> 00:03:17,264
...The Hammer, The Broad...
80
00:03:17,265 --> 00:03:19,307
The California African American Museum?
81
00:03:19,308 --> 00:03:22,144
I have a plaque at the plaza.
82
00:03:22,145 --> 00:03:23,186
A plaque in the plaza?
83
00:03:23,187 --> 00:03:25,272
Right between George Lucas' wife
84
00:03:25,273 --> 00:03:26,773
and Robert De Niro's wife.
85
00:03:26,774 --> 00:03:28,984
This... is amazing.
86
00:03:28,985 --> 00:03:30,826
Lynette, you're amazing!
87
00:03:30,873 --> 00:03:32,070
Okay, okay, okay.
88
00:03:32,071 --> 00:03:33,530
Get your own fiancée.
89
00:03:33,531 --> 00:03:35,435
- She's amazing, Pops.
- We have to go now.
90
00:03:35,460 --> 00:03:37,868
Lynette has to referee
the Urban League's
91
00:03:37,869 --> 00:03:39,773
annual charity basketball game.
92
00:03:39,804 --> 00:03:40,857
- Oh. Okay.
- Say goodbye, baby.
93
00:03:40,882 --> 00:03:42,164
Oh, bye.
94
00:03:42,165 --> 00:03:44,055
But I loved catching up with you.
95
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,040
Oh. I love you, too.
96
00:03:48,921 --> 00:03:50,297
- What'd you say?
- I... I-I...
97
00:03:50,298 --> 00:03:51,825
As in the band, U2.
98
00:03:51,850 --> 00:03:55,010
I love U2, UB40, Us3,
99
00:03:55,011 --> 00:03:58,013
- anything with a "U" in it, Pops.
- Mm-hmm.
100
00:03:58,014 --> 00:03:59,431
"You Be Illin'."
101
00:03:59,432 --> 00:04:00,599
Yeah! Huh!
102
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:01,766
Get off me!
103
00:04:01,767 --> 00:04:02,976
No! Get away!
104
00:04:02,977 --> 00:04:04,853
I've got pepper spray!
I've got pepper spray!
105
00:04:04,854 --> 00:04:06,021
Wait... What...
106
00:04:06,022 --> 00:04:07,647
No, Mom, Mom, I'm... I'm fine.
107
00:04:07,648 --> 00:04:09,274
It's... It's just a game.
108
00:04:09,275 --> 00:04:11,484
Right now, I'm defending
a children's hospital
109
00:04:11,485 --> 00:04:13,236
from the undead.
110
00:04:13,237 --> 00:04:15,322
- Seen a lot of awful things in those halls.
- Hmm.
111
00:04:15,323 --> 00:04:17,365
- But I've also seen a lot of hope.
- Hmm.
112
00:04:17,366 --> 00:04:18,658
You want to join?
113
00:04:18,659 --> 00:04:21,369
Oh, I'd love to, but no. Mnh-mnh.
114
00:04:21,370 --> 00:04:23,413
I just made myself a pot of tea,
115
00:04:23,414 --> 00:04:25,207
and I'm gonna read a book.
116
00:04:25,208 --> 00:04:27,083
Uh, come on, Mom.
117
00:04:27,084 --> 00:04:28,335
We both have the day off.
118
00:04:28,336 --> 00:04:29,377
Wouldn't it be great to do
119
00:04:29,378 --> 00:04:31,463
some mother-son zombie-busting?
120
00:04:31,464 --> 00:04:33,798
Okay, well, we can agree
to disagree on that one...
121
00:04:33,799 --> 00:04:37,219
...and you can agree
to put all of this...
122
00:04:37,220 --> 00:04:39,221
back when you're done.
123
00:04:39,222 --> 00:04:40,472
- Okay.
- Yeah?
124
00:04:40,473 --> 00:04:42,682
I promise I will put
everything back perfectly
125
00:04:42,683 --> 00:04:45,435
as soon as all of the children
are safe and sound.
126
00:04:45,436 --> 00:04:47,187
- Whatever.
- Okay?
127
00:04:47,188 --> 00:04:48,188
All right.
128
00:04:48,189 --> 00:04:49,439
We are back in the ga...
129
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,066
Uhp. I'm dead.
130
00:04:51,067 --> 00:04:52,192
All right.
131
00:04:52,193 --> 00:04:54,903
Hey, guys. This is good news.
132
00:04:54,904 --> 00:04:57,364
The vape industry will pay us
a lot of money
133
00:04:57,365 --> 00:04:59,991
if we can rehabilitate their image
134
00:04:59,992 --> 00:05:02,494
by proving their product
is not for kids.
135
00:05:02,495 --> 00:05:04,788
Now, how do we market
136
00:05:04,789 --> 00:05:07,239
gummy-bear-flavored tobacco for adults?
137
00:05:07,264 --> 00:05:08,246
Go.
138
00:05:08,271 --> 00:05:09,626
Chewy smoke.
139
00:05:09,627 --> 00:05:11,628
Okay, Dre, what do you got?
You got something?
140
00:05:11,629 --> 00:05:12,754
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
141
00:05:12,755 --> 00:05:14,339
I just got a text from Lynette.
142
00:05:14,340 --> 00:05:16,049
Oh, okay.
143
00:05:16,050 --> 00:05:18,718
So, it finally happened, huh?
144
00:05:18,719 --> 00:05:20,011
What finally happened?
145
00:05:20,012 --> 00:05:21,346
You got yourself a mistress.
146
00:05:21,347 --> 00:05:23,890
- Well done.
- What? No, man.
147
00:05:23,891 --> 00:05:26,518
Lynette is my father's fiancée.
148
00:05:26,519 --> 00:05:27,686
- Oh.
- Oh. Oh. I'm sorry.
149
00:05:27,687 --> 00:05:29,521
No, we're both fans of Black art.
150
00:05:29,522 --> 00:05:30,814
- Okay. Sorry.
- Oh.
151
00:05:30,815 --> 00:05:31,856
So am I.
152
00:05:31,857 --> 00:05:33,400
- Word?
- Yeah.
153
00:05:33,401 --> 00:05:35,443
Airbrushed pictures of dead rappers,
154
00:05:35,444 --> 00:05:38,905
Maya Angelou quotes on plywood
in pretty fonts,
155
00:05:38,906 --> 00:05:40,949
oil paintings of naked women in afros
156
00:05:40,950 --> 00:05:42,867
posing with various big cats.
157
00:05:42,868 --> 00:05:44,828
Okay, that's not what
I was talking about, Charlie.
158
00:05:44,829 --> 00:05:47,205
I'm talking about Black artists.
159
00:05:47,206 --> 00:05:49,374
- Oh.
- Fine artists
160
00:05:49,375 --> 00:05:51,167
whose works are in museums.
161
00:05:51,168 --> 00:05:54,296
You know, like Charles White,
uh, and Emory Douglas.
162
00:05:54,297 --> 00:05:55,839
You guys know
who I'm talking about, right?
163
00:05:55,840 --> 00:05:57,841
Obviously, we don't know them, Dre.
164
00:05:57,842 --> 00:05:59,092
And the fact that you're even asking
165
00:05:59,093 --> 00:06:00,969
makes me wonder if you even know us.
166
00:06:00,970 --> 00:06:02,178
Okay.
167
00:06:02,179 --> 00:06:03,722
How about Basquiat?
168
00:06:03,723 --> 00:06:05,140
Everybody knows Basquiat.
169
00:06:05,141 --> 00:06:06,558
- Mm.
- The cheese?
170
00:06:06,559 --> 00:06:09,311
This is insane.
171
00:06:09,312 --> 00:06:11,938
You don't know
who Jean-Michel Basquiat is?
172
00:06:11,939 --> 00:06:15,191
He brought street art
into the fine art world
173
00:06:15,192 --> 00:06:17,152
decades before Banksy.
174
00:06:17,153 --> 00:06:20,488
Uh... Kara Walker's
nightmarish silhouettes
175
00:06:20,489 --> 00:06:24,242
tells the story
of American slavery and racism.
176
00:06:24,243 --> 00:06:26,286
- So sad.
- I'm sorry, I don't... I don't know.
177
00:06:26,287 --> 00:06:29,623
This is where I am.
178
00:06:29,624 --> 00:06:33,251
I can't talk to one person
about one of my greatest loves.
179
00:06:33,252 --> 00:06:34,586
Sweaters?
180
00:06:34,587 --> 00:06:38,006
- Cannolis?
- Art.
181
00:06:38,007 --> 00:06:39,215
You know what? This is crazy.
182
00:06:39,216 --> 00:06:40,383
You know what?
I'm just gonna call Lynette
183
00:06:40,384 --> 00:06:43,136
and ask her if she wants
to go to a gallery.
184
00:06:43,137 --> 00:06:44,346
She understands me.
185
00:06:44,347 --> 00:06:45,639
You go, Dre.
186
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:46,765
You go be with her.
187
00:06:46,766 --> 00:06:48,391
And while you're at it...
188
00:06:48,392 --> 00:06:51,853
bring me back a painting
of a woman with a white tiger.
189
00:06:51,854 --> 00:06:54,147
Matter of fact, here's $40.
190
00:06:54,148 --> 00:06:56,024
Get me one that lights up.
191
00:06:56,025 --> 00:06:58,610
So, Lynette and I got together,
192
00:06:58,611 --> 00:07:00,320
and going to a gallery
193
00:07:00,321 --> 00:07:02,989
with someone
who loved art as much as I did
194
00:07:02,990 --> 00:07:05,950
was everything I hoped it would be.
195
00:07:05,951 --> 00:07:07,660
It was a great day,
196
00:07:07,661 --> 00:07:10,246
and there was one way
to make it perfect.
197
00:07:10,247 --> 00:07:12,207
It's been a minute
198
00:07:12,208 --> 00:07:14,192
since I've been
to The Cheesecake Machine.
199
00:07:14,193 --> 00:07:17,754
This is me and my mama's favorite spot.
200
00:07:17,755 --> 00:07:20,006
You know, I love how they put
a whole fried chicken
201
00:07:20,007 --> 00:07:21,758
on a leaf of iceberg
202
00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:23,218
and call it a salad.
203
00:07:24,387 --> 00:07:27,514
It's hard to find a 5,000-calorie
salad in this town.
204
00:07:27,515 --> 00:07:28,765
It ain't Georgia.
205
00:07:30,267 --> 00:07:33,103
I see somebody's eyes
were bigger than his stomach.
206
00:07:33,104 --> 00:07:35,188
I told you not to fill up on that bread.
207
00:07:35,189 --> 00:07:37,899
Now, we have a bit of a ride
to get back home.
208
00:07:37,900 --> 00:07:41,444
When was the last time
you went to the bathroom?
209
00:07:41,445 --> 00:07:42,987
I went at the gallery.
210
00:07:42,988 --> 00:07:44,531
Did you?
211
00:07:44,532 --> 00:07:45,573
Okay, you know what? You're right.
212
00:07:45,574 --> 00:07:46,533
I-I should go right now.
213
00:07:46,534 --> 00:07:48,284
- Well, hol... hol... hold on.
- Mm?
214
00:07:48,285 --> 00:07:49,892
There's just a little something...
215
00:07:49,931 --> 00:07:51,621
- ...just right there.
- Where? Uh-huh?
216
00:07:51,622 --> 00:07:52,705
- Ooh.
- Mnh.
217
00:07:52,706 --> 00:07:53,998
- Got it.
- Oh.
218
00:07:53,999 --> 00:07:56,126
Thank you, Mama.
219
00:07:56,127 --> 00:07:57,502
I mean Lynette.
220
00:07:57,503 --> 00:08:00,672
Uh-oh. I'm not cheating on my wife.
221
00:08:00,673 --> 00:08:03,383
I'm cheating on my mother.
222
00:08:03,384 --> 00:08:06,011
Whoa! What's happening, Black Jesus?!
223
00:08:09,849 --> 00:08:12,142
- Wow.
- Mm.
224
00:08:12,143 --> 00:08:14,644
- You're cheating on your mother.
- Ah.
225
00:08:14,645 --> 00:08:16,354
- Congratulations.
- Okay.
226
00:08:16,355 --> 00:08:20,733
You moved past Oedipal
and created your own complex.
227
00:08:20,734 --> 00:08:22,068
Okay, here's the thing about it, Bow.
228
00:08:22,069 --> 00:08:23,069
Hmm?
229
00:08:23,070 --> 00:08:24,654
- I kind of liked it.
- Ew.
230
00:08:24,655 --> 00:08:26,448
It felt so right.
231
00:08:27,908 --> 00:08:29,659
Lynette does a thing for me.
232
00:08:29,660 --> 00:08:31,119
Mm.
233
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,246
This is like the worst
Shakespeare play ever.
234
00:08:33,247 --> 00:08:35,206
No, babe, we had a great day.
235
00:08:35,207 --> 00:08:38,376
- Mm.
- We genuinely connected over art.
236
00:08:38,377 --> 00:08:42,005
I didn't realize how much I was
missing it until I found it.
237
00:08:42,006 --> 00:08:43,465
Aww.
238
00:08:43,466 --> 00:08:47,677
Well... too bad you're gonna
have to drop her.
239
00:08:47,678 --> 00:08:50,263
'Cause you know your mom
is easily threatened.
240
00:08:50,264 --> 00:08:51,765
What?
241
00:08:51,766 --> 00:08:52,891
I'll just top this off for you.
242
00:08:52,892 --> 00:08:55,268
- Okay.
- The hell you will.
243
00:08:55,269 --> 00:08:57,228
You don't know how my baby
likes his beer poured.
244
00:08:57,229 --> 00:08:58,229
Go on, get out of here.
245
00:08:58,230 --> 00:08:59,439
Okay.
246
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:00,565
Here, baby.
247
00:09:00,566 --> 00:09:02,484
- You all right?
- Yes, Mama.
248
00:09:02,485 --> 00:09:04,235
She's mellowed.
249
00:09:04,236 --> 00:09:05,945
All right, look at how she's handling
250
00:09:05,946 --> 00:09:07,489
Pops' and Lynette's relationship.
251
00:09:07,490 --> 00:09:08,907
She's not threatened.
252
00:09:08,908 --> 00:09:10,492
You're just saying that, Dre,
253
00:09:10,493 --> 00:09:12,327
'cause you want to keep
hanging out with Lynette.
254
00:09:12,328 --> 00:09:14,245
No, Bow, I...
255
00:09:14,246 --> 00:09:16,681
I want you to see it from
my mother's perspective.
256
00:09:16,728 --> 00:09:17,946
- Okay.
- Okay?
257
00:09:17,971 --> 00:09:20,939
It's half the work, and she
doesn't always have to be on.
258
00:09:20,986 --> 00:09:22,212
Everybody wins.
259
00:09:22,251 --> 00:09:24,756
It's a win-win-win.
260
00:09:24,757 --> 00:09:26,883
Okay, I've expressed my concerns,
261
00:09:26,884 --> 00:09:29,219
and I've told you how I think
this is going to turn out.
262
00:09:29,220 --> 00:09:31,262
So I have no guilt in allowing you
263
00:09:31,263 --> 00:09:33,848
to walk into this situation.
264
00:09:33,849 --> 00:09:35,626
But...
265
00:09:35,727 --> 00:09:37,101
God bless you.
266
00:09:37,102 --> 00:09:38,228
- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
267
00:09:38,229 --> 00:09:39,896
- Oh. Hey, Mama.
- Ooh.
268
00:09:39,897 --> 00:09:41,981
Um, I'm going to the museum
with Lynette and the kids,
269
00:09:41,982 --> 00:09:44,275
and I would love for you
to come with us.
270
00:09:44,276 --> 00:09:45,610
Oh. Oh, oh, sorry.
271
00:09:45,611 --> 00:09:47,612
I got my earbuds in.
272
00:09:47,613 --> 00:09:49,405
What did you say, sweetie?
273
00:09:49,406 --> 00:09:51,783
I said I'm going to the museum
with Lynette and the kids,
274
00:09:51,784 --> 00:09:53,618
and I want you to come.
275
00:09:53,619 --> 00:09:55,246
Sure. Sounds great.
276
00:09:56,914 --> 00:09:59,541
- Does it?
- Yeah, sounds like fun.
277
00:09:59,542 --> 00:10:00,917
Look at my baby.
278
00:10:00,918 --> 00:10:02,877
Taking his children and his mama out
279
00:10:02,878 --> 00:10:05,088
for a day at a classy museum.
280
00:10:05,089 --> 00:10:06,714
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh, boo.
281
00:10:06,715 --> 00:10:08,049
- Mwah.
- Mwah.
282
00:10:08,050 --> 00:10:08,925
- Thank you, Mama.
- Proud of you, baby.
283
00:10:08,926 --> 00:10:09,801
- Thank you.
- Uh-huh.
284
00:10:12,930 --> 00:10:16,057
Having two mamas is gonna be great.
285
00:10:16,058 --> 00:10:17,392
Hmm.
286
00:10:17,393 --> 00:10:19,936
Uh... how do you feel
287
00:10:19,937 --> 00:10:22,715
about adding an extra wife
to this situation?
288
00:10:27,319 --> 00:10:29,404
I mean, you know,
you always talk about how,
289
00:10:29,405 --> 00:10:30,947
you know, you hate doing the laundry.
290
00:10:30,948 --> 00:10:33,324
I just feel we could... you kn...
291
00:10:33,325 --> 00:10:34,909
Okay. I was just, you know...
292
00:10:34,910 --> 00:10:36,703
Like I said, I was just, um...
293
00:10:36,704 --> 00:10:38,288
just asking for a friend.
294
00:10:41,876 --> 00:10:44,168
- How's the book, Mom?
- Aah! Ah.
295
00:10:44,169 --> 00:10:46,379
Hey. Hey.
296
00:10:46,380 --> 00:10:48,214
Hey, Junior. It's good.
297
00:10:49,341 --> 00:10:50,842
Yeah, it's really, really good.
298
00:10:50,843 --> 00:10:53,219
- Yeah, it looks like a real page-turner.
- Uh-huh.
299
00:10:53,220 --> 00:10:54,864
- It's all right.
- Mom, I know you're a book person,
300
00:10:54,889 --> 00:10:56,431
but you should try this.
301
00:10:56,432 --> 00:10:58,933
- VR is an incredible stress reliever.
- Oh, come on.
302
00:10:58,934 --> 00:11:00,397
Okay.
303
00:11:01,729 --> 00:11:03,354
I don't know if I'm gonna get into this.
304
00:11:03,355 --> 00:11:04,522
Die!
305
00:11:04,523 --> 00:11:06,357
Die, you zombie jerks!
306
00:11:06,358 --> 00:11:07,801
I'll see you in Hell!
307
00:11:09,194 --> 00:11:10,949
This is all I ever wanted.
308
00:11:12,698 --> 00:11:14,824
It was all happening.
309
00:11:14,825 --> 00:11:18,620
I was on a date with my art mom
and my birth mom.
310
00:11:18,621 --> 00:11:21,381
It was the type of thing
dreams are made of.

00:11:29,256 --> 00:11:31,675
Bow says I have to cut back
on the dairy.
316
00:11:33,510 --> 00:11:36,220
You see any Rainbows
around here, Lynette?
317
00:11:36,221 --> 00:11:39,098
Clear skies from what I can see, Ruby.
318
00:11:39,099 --> 00:11:40,870
- Shall we, Dre?
- Put it in my mouth.
319
00:11:40,895 --> 00:11:42,560
Ah!
320
00:11:42,561 --> 00:11:44,145

Nothing, Pops. It's... It's all good.
328
00:11:59,244 --> 00:12:02,080
It's all very good.
329
00:12:02,081 --> 00:12:03,581
Hey, guys, where should we start first,
330
00:12:03,582 --> 00:12:04,791
upstairs or downstairs?
331
00:12:04,792 --> 00:12:06,167
- Upstairs.
- Downstairs.
332
00:12:06,168 --> 00:12:07,919
Okay, you know what? I'll choose.
333
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,545
Let's go to the sculpture garden.
334
00:12:09,546 --> 00:12:11,423
- Okay.
- Okay.
335
00:12:12,758 --> 00:12:14,092
This will be fun.
336
00:12:14,093 --> 00:12:15,301
You just got to get into the spirit.
337
00:12:15,302 --> 00:12:17,345
Why are you so on board with this?
338
00:12:17,346 --> 00:12:18,596
You think Lynette is the first woman
339
00:12:18,597 --> 00:12:20,848
to drag me into a museum?
340
00:12:20,849 --> 00:12:22,058
Look, she's not even the first woman
341
00:12:22,059 --> 00:12:23,810
to drag me into this museum.
342
00:12:23,811 --> 00:12:25,728
I've learned as a black man of my age
343
00:12:25,729 --> 00:12:26,980
that there are certain subjects
344
00:12:26,981 --> 00:12:29,023
that people assume I know a lot about...
345
00:12:29,024 --> 00:12:31,442
jazz, boxing, ribs, the war...
346
00:12:31,443 --> 00:12:33,111
- Which war?
- It doesn't matter.
347
00:12:33,112 --> 00:12:35,071
Once a brother gets a few
gray hairs in his head,
348
00:12:35,072 --> 00:12:37,407
white people just assume you're wise.
349
00:12:37,408 --> 00:12:40,076
Why do you think Morgan Freeman
has played God so many times?
350
00:12:40,077 --> 00:12:41,911
'Cause he's got that old Black magic.
351
00:12:41,912 --> 00:12:44,038
So, you could just lie to people?
352
00:12:44,039 --> 00:12:46,374
No, I don't just lie to people.
353
00:12:46,375 --> 00:12:48,584
I use their assumptions about me
against them.
354
00:12:48,585 --> 00:12:51,504
Mm, I don't think people
are that gullible, Pops.
355
00:12:51,505 --> 00:12:54,215
Watch and learn, Jack, my boy.
Watch and learn.
356
00:12:59,430 --> 00:13:01,014
This piece leaves me cold.
357
00:13:01,015 --> 00:13:02,432
Well, you have to admit
358
00:13:02,433 --> 00:13:05,184
the artist does have
masterful control of the medium.
359
00:13:05,185 --> 00:13:06,686
You know, I didn't notice that before.
360
00:13:06,687 --> 00:13:09,105
Now I feel like an idiot.
361
00:13:09,106 --> 00:13:11,108
Did I see you open for Herbie Hancock?
362
00:13:12,443 --> 00:13:14,110
I'm just here with my family today.
363
00:13:14,111 --> 00:13:15,903
So let's just keep it our secret.
364
00:13:18,657 --> 00:13:20,867
The interesting thing about this piece
365
00:13:20,868 --> 00:13:22,827
is that it's all about
the objectification
366
00:13:22,828 --> 00:13:24,078
of the Black male body.
367
00:13:24,079 --> 00:13:27,623
- Mm.
- Well, there's not much to objectify.
368
00:13:27,624 --> 00:13:29,250
Ma... Mama, come on.
369
00:13:29,251 --> 00:13:32,837
Well, I'm just saying, there should
be a little more "there" there.
370
00:13:32,838 --> 00:13:34,334
- You know what I mean?
- Amen.
371
00:13:34,359 --> 00:13:36,895
- Come on, now. You know what I'm saying.
- "Amen"? Huh?
372
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,338
Like a little, old penis, okay?
373
00:13:39,845 --> 00:13:42,555
I don't know about you,
374
00:13:42,556 --> 00:13:45,183
but I think this artist shows
amazing control of the medium.
375
00:13:45,184 --> 00:13:46,976
Mm-hmm. Absolutely.
376
00:13:46,977 --> 00:13:48,644
The medium is totally controlled.
377
00:13:48,645 --> 00:13:49,604
Amazingly.
378
00:13:49,605 --> 00:13:51,105
Aww.
379
00:13:51,106 --> 00:13:52,690
That's so adorable.
380
00:13:52,691 --> 00:13:54,400
You kids have no idea
what you're talking about.
381
00:13:54,401 --> 00:13:56,444
Excuse me.
382
00:13:56,445 --> 00:13:57,987
I think what they meant to say
383
00:13:57,988 --> 00:13:59,280
is that this particular artist
384
00:13:59,281 --> 00:14:02,200
shows amazing control of the medium.
385
00:14:02,201 --> 00:14:03,659
Oh.
386
00:14:03,660 --> 00:14:05,369
I see it now.
387
00:14:05,370 --> 00:14:06,788
Hey, I don't know why,
388
00:14:06,789 --> 00:14:10,041
but I feel comfortable asking you...
389
00:14:10,042 --> 00:14:12,502
I haven't talked to my dad in 15 years.
390
00:14:12,503 --> 00:14:15,004
Should I call him?
391
00:14:15,005 --> 00:14:17,256
Let's talk about it, son.
392
00:14:19,843 --> 00:14:21,469
And I said, "Well, in this house,
393
00:14:21,470 --> 00:14:23,763
your name is O'Shea Jackson,
394
00:14:23,764 --> 00:14:25,681
and no, you cannot have another soda."
395
00:14:25,682 --> 00:14:28,017
Look at us,
396
00:14:28,018 --> 00:14:30,645
two single mothers who raised Black sons
397
00:14:30,646 --> 00:14:33,022
in Los Angeles in the '80s.
398
00:14:33,023 --> 00:14:34,656
Oh, we went through a lot.
399
00:14:34,687 --> 00:14:36,150
Yeah. The riots.
400
00:14:36,151 --> 00:14:37,485
- Mm.
- O. J.
401
00:14:37,486 --> 00:14:38,611
Ooh.
402
00:14:38,612 --> 00:14:40,446
- The Kobe-Shaq beef.
- Mm.
403
00:14:40,447 --> 00:14:43,241
Oh, that one
almost tore my family apart.
404
00:14:43,242 --> 00:14:44,951
But we survived it all.
405
00:14:44,952 --> 00:14:47,537
There should be streets named after us.
406
00:14:47,538 --> 00:14:49,413
Ruby Boulevard.
407
00:14:49,414 --> 00:14:50,652
Lynette Avenue.
408
00:14:52,042 --> 00:14:53,668
I know.
409
00:14:53,669 --> 00:14:57,380
Dre, three bread baskets
at The Cheesecake Machine,
410
00:14:57,381 --> 00:15:01,884
and not once did you tell me
all the things we had in common.
411
00:15:01,885 --> 00:15:03,845
- Well...
- Wait a minute. What was that?
412
00:15:03,846 --> 00:15:05,805
Mama, she's joking, all right?
413
00:15:05,806 --> 00:15:07,515
We talked about you the entire time.
414
00:15:07,516 --> 00:15:08,850
No, no, no. Not that part.
415
00:15:08,851 --> 00:15:11,477
You took her to The Cheesecake Machine?
416
00:15:11,478 --> 00:15:13,271
Yeah.
417
00:15:13,272 --> 00:15:15,690
The one on Sepulveda?
418
00:15:15,691 --> 00:15:17,567
Yeah. That... That's the closest one.
419
00:15:17,568 --> 00:15:20,695
You could've taken her to sushi
or some other nonsense,
420
00:15:20,696 --> 00:15:24,657
but instead, you took her to our place?
421
00:15:24,658 --> 00:15:28,119
If she wants to go, you let
her son Doug take her.
422
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,329
- I...
- That tacky-ass restaurant
423
00:15:30,330 --> 00:15:33,583
is where you take your mother!
424
00:15:33,584 --> 00:15:35,238
You betrayed me!
425
00:15:38,422 --> 00:15:40,756
Oh. Oh, oh, oh. Come here.
Oh, I see you, I see you!
426
00:15:40,757 --> 00:15:42,556
Okay, I don't have
427
00:15:42,581 --> 00:15:45,099
the energy for whatever this is.
428
00:15:47,826 --> 00:15:50,341
So, I had made a mistake
429
00:15:50,380 --> 00:15:53,451
and got too comfortable
with my side mom.
430
00:15:53,497 --> 00:15:55,646
Now there was hell to pay.
431
00:15:55,671 --> 00:15:57,273
Ma?
432
00:15:57,790 --> 00:15:59,833
Brought you some Rolos.
433
00:15:59,875 --> 00:16:01,644
Your favorite.
434
00:16:01,683 --> 00:16:03,920
You can just leave them on the table.
435
00:16:05,950 --> 00:16:09,702
Look. Hey, Mama.
436
00:16:09,703 --> 00:16:13,665
I'm sorry I took Lynette
to The Cheesecake Machine.
437
00:16:13,666 --> 00:16:15,041
I didn't know.
438
00:16:15,737 --> 00:16:18,447
How could you not know
439
00:16:18,500 --> 00:16:20,672
that The Cheesecake Machine
was our place?
440
00:16:20,673 --> 00:16:23,383
Ma, because it's everybody's place.
441
00:16:23,896 --> 00:16:26,105
It's the one thing
that everybody agrees on.
442
00:16:26,130 --> 00:16:28,805
If they put one in the Middle East,
443
00:16:29,264 --> 00:16:32,232
I think everything would be good.
444
00:16:32,309 --> 00:16:34,310
But still, it was something special
445
00:16:34,311 --> 00:16:36,228
just between the two of us.
446
00:16:38,690 --> 00:16:39,940
I don't know if you've noticed,
447
00:16:39,941 --> 00:16:42,943
but your tastes have changed.
448
00:16:42,944 --> 00:16:45,070
Ever since you went off to college
449
00:16:45,071 --> 00:16:50,868
and started experiencing a world
outside of what I know,
450
00:16:50,869 --> 00:16:53,120
I've been losing parts of you.
451
00:16:53,121 --> 00:16:54,496
Mama, that's not true.
452
00:16:54,497 --> 00:16:56,332
Ah, yes, it is, Dre.
453
00:16:56,333 --> 00:16:58,959
But still...
454
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,379
I guess it's also just a part of life.
455
00:17:02,380 --> 00:17:05,716
I don't want to be
the reason you don't grow.
456
00:17:05,717 --> 00:17:08,652
I've adjusted to you living
in Sherman Oaks.
457
00:17:08,714 --> 00:17:09,845
Mm.
458
00:17:09,846 --> 00:17:13,140
And I've adjusted to Rainbow
being in the house.
459
00:17:15,310 --> 00:17:17,269
I guess I'm just gonna have to adjust
460
00:17:17,270 --> 00:17:20,023
to sharing you with another woman.
461
00:17:22,525 --> 00:17:26,171
I'm glad you've got an art friend.
462
00:17:26,446 --> 00:17:28,364
- You are?
- Mm.
463
00:17:28,365 --> 00:17:30,413
I really am.
464
00:17:31,114 --> 00:17:32,573
Come here.
465
00:17:37,249 --> 00:17:40,292
These saved your life.
466
00:17:43,171 --> 00:17:47,091
So, Mom was cool with me
hanging out with Lynette.
467
00:17:47,092 --> 00:17:49,426
But something still felt off.
468
00:17:51,763 --> 00:17:54,056
All right, Mom, I have got my headset,
469
00:17:54,057 --> 00:17:55,684
and I'm ready to go.
470
00:17:57,269 --> 00:18:00,604
Uh, Mom, are...
are you dead in the game?
471
00:18:00,605 --> 00:18:02,898
Are you dead in life?
472
00:18:02,899 --> 00:18:04,400
Shh.
473
00:18:04,401 --> 00:18:06,527
Junior, I beat the game.
474
00:18:06,528 --> 00:18:07,695
I made my way to Catalina
475
00:18:07,696 --> 00:18:10,030
and killed every damn zombie
on this island.
476
00:18:10,031 --> 00:18:12,595
Once I was safe,
I dragged over this couch,
477
00:18:12,596 --> 00:18:15,044
found a copy of my book,
and put my feet up.
478
00:18:15,115 --> 00:18:17,867
Come on. Join me.
479
00:18:17,868 --> 00:18:19,619
Let's relax together.
480
00:18:19,620 --> 00:18:22,580
Oh, yeah, this is nice!
481
00:18:22,581 --> 00:18:25,416
I bet we could find a golf cart
and go for a joy ride.
482
00:18:25,417 --> 00:18:27,585
I could get used to it here.
483
00:18:27,586 --> 00:18:30,296
Please, sweetie, don't make me ice you.
484
00:18:30,297 --> 00:18:32,089
You're right, Mom.
Let's just do it your way.
485
00:18:32,090 --> 00:18:34,467
Let's relax.
486
00:18:34,468 --> 00:18:35,461
Love you.
487
00:18:35,486 --> 00:18:37,149
Love you.
488
00:18:37,235 --> 00:18:39,719
Even though Mama said she was fine,
489
00:18:39,744 --> 00:18:42,370
I could tell she needed
some more convincing.
490
00:18:42,371 --> 00:18:44,461
- Hey, Mama.
- Hey.
491
00:18:45,499 --> 00:18:48,835
You remember that poster
I had on my wall as a kid?
492
00:18:48,836 --> 00:18:51,046
You know, the one from "Good Times"?
493
00:18:51,047 --> 00:18:52,005
Ah, yeah.
494
00:18:52,006 --> 00:18:54,966
The one with all them Negroes sinning?
495
00:18:54,967 --> 00:18:57,552
So you do remember it.
496
00:18:57,553 --> 00:19:00,930
You know that was the
first piece of art I owned?
497
00:19:00,931 --> 00:19:03,600
Oh, Dre. You know I only
bought that to cover up
498
00:19:03,601 --> 00:19:05,643
the hole I punched in your wall
499
00:19:05,644 --> 00:19:07,604
after they canceled "St. Elsewhere."
500
00:19:07,605 --> 00:19:10,523
You know, it doesn't matter why.
501
00:19:10,524 --> 00:19:14,986
What matters is that
no corner of my life
502
00:19:14,987 --> 00:19:17,266
has not been inspired by you.
503
00:19:17,336 --> 00:19:18,782
Aww.
504
00:19:18,783 --> 00:19:21,201
I mean, Mama, you may not have
taught me about art,
505
00:19:21,202 --> 00:19:24,832
but you showed me how
to be passionate about the arts.
506
00:19:24,895 --> 00:19:28,564
All that time we spent
listening to records,
507
00:19:28,565 --> 00:19:30,691
you don't think
that had an effect on me?
508
00:19:30,692 --> 00:19:31,859
Mm.
509
00:19:31,860 --> 00:19:36,226
Mama, everything I am is because of you.
510
00:19:36,304 --> 00:19:39,226
- Oh, I know.
- Mm. Are you sure?
511
00:19:39,272 --> 00:19:40,452
Mm.
512
00:19:40,522 --> 00:19:43,618
Because you will always be
my number-one girl.
513
00:19:43,681 --> 00:19:45,447
Ain't no competition.
514
00:19:47,059 --> 00:19:48,727
So, you don't want to take Lynette
515
00:19:48,728 --> 00:19:51,868
to the gospel brunch
at the House of Blues?
516
00:19:51,907 --> 00:19:54,374
- No, I don't.
- Mm.
517
00:19:54,444 --> 00:19:56,780
In fact...
518
00:19:56,881 --> 00:19:59,460
I've cleared my schedule.
519
00:19:59,530 --> 00:20:03,992
So, if you want to go to the
Farmer's Market, let's go.
520
00:20:03,993 --> 00:20:07,231
If you want to go to church, let's go.
521
00:20:07,288 --> 00:20:09,988
But it will be just the two of us.
522
00:20:11,709 --> 00:20:12,876
All right, then.
523
00:20:12,877 --> 00:20:14,461
- I already know.
- Hmm?
524
00:20:14,462 --> 00:20:16,588
I want to go to The Cheesecake Machine.
525
00:20:16,589 --> 00:20:18,507
Done.
526
00:20:18,508 --> 00:20:21,468
In Palm Springs.
527
00:20:21,469 --> 00:20:23,512
- Palm Springs?
- It's a new one!
528
00:20:23,513 --> 00:20:25,305
They just opened, Dre.
529
00:20:25,306 --> 00:20:28,892
There's not even any graffiti
in the bathroom yet.
530
00:20:28,893 --> 00:20:31,311
Yeah, that's...
that's more of a weekend.
531
00:20:31,312 --> 00:20:34,512
Great! Then we'll make
a whole weekend of it, Dre.
532
00:20:36,067 --> 00:20:37,400
You go tell your wife.
533
00:20:37,401 --> 00:20:39,069
I'll start packing.
534
00:20:39,070 --> 00:20:41,783
Rainbow, we're going away
for the weekend!
535
00:20:41,833 --> 00:20:43,783
You can't come!
536
00:20:46,656 --> 00:20:48,143
And next, we have...
537
00:20:48,144 --> 00:20:52,438
this self portrait by James Adams.
538
00:20:52,439 --> 00:20:54,730
As with all the other paintings
that we've seen today,
539
00:20:54,785 --> 00:20:57,004
you might notice that this piece
540
00:20:57,058 --> 00:20:59,948
clearly displays his trademark
control of the medium.
541
00:20:59,995 --> 00:21:01,354
Excuse me.
542
00:21:01,417 --> 00:21:03,376
I don't recognize you.
543
00:21:03,377 --> 00:21:05,670
Are you one of our docents?
544
00:21:05,671 --> 00:21:08,214
That depends. What's a docent?
545
00:21:08,215 --> 00:21:09,757
Security?
546
00:21:09,758 --> 00:21:11,592
No need. I'll let myself out.
547
00:21:11,593 --> 00:21:17,098
Remember, control of the medium
is within all of you.
548
00:21:21,019 --> 00:21:23,414
Well, that sucks. He was our ride.
549
00:21:23,515 --> 00:21:28,515
