1
00:00:01,233 --> 00:00:02,839
Previously on "Queen Sugar"...
2
00:00:03,019 --> 00:00:04,953
I ain't been telling y'all the truth.
3
00:00:04,987 --> 00:00:06,289
There was more to the will.
4
00:00:06,322 --> 00:00:08,457
The farm, he left it to just me.
5
00:00:08,491 --> 00:00:10,799
- You were using me.
- That's not what he's been doing.
6
00:00:10,831 --> 00:00:12,395
You knew about this, too?
7
00:00:12,428 --> 00:00:14,963
Daddy cleaning floors
and scrubbing toilets
8
00:00:14,997 --> 00:00:17,000
- to keep your son in clothes.
- What?
9
00:00:17,033 --> 00:00:20,026
He was working
as a janitor before he died.
10
00:00:20,026 --> 00:00:21,795
You was living large in L.A.
11
00:00:21,828 --> 00:00:24,464
- And, Nova, you hardly ever passed by.
- How would you know?!
12
00:00:24,497 --> 00:00:26,566
Most of those years,
you weren't here neither!
13
00:00:26,599 --> 00:00:30,537
You're not leaving until
we settle this mess!
14
00:00:39,579 --> 00:00:41,048
He wouldn't have done this.
15
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,418
He wouldn't have just given you
the farm, not like this!
16
00:00:44,451 --> 00:00:47,555
Yeah, he would. And you know how I know?
17
00:00:47,588 --> 00:00:49,490
- 'Cause he did.
- Get off your high horse, Rah!
18
00:00:49,522 --> 00:00:53,078
Y'all act like Daddy wanting to leave
something for me and Blue is wrong!
19
00:00:53,860 --> 00:00:57,337
Like him sweeping floors to
hold onto the farm is my fault!
20
00:00:58,899 --> 00:01:01,462
Y'all could've did something
to help him out.
21
00:01:02,101 --> 00:01:03,252
Both of you!
22
00:01:03,277 --> 00:01:04,938
So you didn't know that Daddy
was working as a janitor?
23
00:01:04,971 --> 00:01:06,873
I would've done it for him if I could.
24
00:01:06,906 --> 00:01:08,509
Mm-hmm.
25
00:01:08,542 --> 00:01:10,412
But I didn't know.
26
00:01:12,473 --> 00:01:13,881
You the one he was calling.
27
00:01:14,850 --> 00:01:16,451
Maybe had you done what he asked,
28
00:01:17,144 --> 00:01:18,552
he'd never have to do that.
29
00:01:19,563 --> 00:01:20,787
You ever think about that, Charley?
30
00:01:20,820 --> 00:01:22,522
That's not fair. I was on my way down...
31
00:01:22,555 --> 00:01:25,692
When you was good and ready, right?
32
00:01:27,696 --> 00:01:29,197
And you wasn't no better.
33
00:01:29,573 --> 00:01:32,033
You right on the other side of town.
34
00:01:32,066 --> 00:01:34,736
Nothing. Nothing.
35
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,443
Why'd you wait so long to tell us?
36
00:01:45,380 --> 00:01:48,483
I... I was waiting for the right time.
37
00:01:51,386 --> 00:01:53,422
You knew you wasn't trying to hear me.
38
00:01:53,455 --> 00:01:54,640
I knew it.
39
00:01:55,151 --> 00:01:57,292
I was trying to do this right.
40
00:01:57,326 --> 00:01:58,848
I told my parole officer and he said...
41
00:01:58,873 --> 00:01:59,674
- Wait a minute.
- What?
42
00:01:59,701 --> 00:02:01,787
He said Daddy's letter is real.
43
00:02:01,821 --> 00:02:04,600
It's a good, enforceable will.
44
00:02:05,150 --> 00:02:07,303
Wow.
45
00:02:07,336 --> 00:02:09,339
- Wow?
- Mm-hmm.
46
00:02:10,672 --> 00:02:12,039
Okay, everybody slow down.
47
00:02:12,073 --> 00:02:13,442
No, Aunt Vi.
48
00:02:13,784 --> 00:02:14,776
We're okay.
49
00:02:14,810 --> 00:02:15,878
Oh, yeah.
50
00:02:15,911 --> 00:02:18,038
But I'm tired of talking about it!
51
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,375
I need to see this letter for myself.
52
00:02:21,949 --> 00:02:23,418
Now!

- Put your card...
- Kings.
55
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,924
Go fish.
56
00:03:03,257 --> 00:03:05,760
Micah, do you have a 3?
57
00:03:07,262 --> 00:03:08,930
What happened? Are we leaving?
58
00:03:08,962 --> 00:03:10,382
I'll be right back.
59
00:03:10,831 --> 00:03:13,568
They wanna see it to believe it,
60
00:03:13,602 --> 00:03:15,596
so I'm gonna show 'em and be done.
61
00:03:17,107 --> 00:03:18,168
See you, boy.
62
00:03:24,563 --> 00:03:26,648
It would be nice to see you, too,
63
00:03:27,774 --> 00:03:30,752
but I don't think I can get
to Atlanta right now.
64
00:03:33,196 --> 00:03:34,989
I've got a family situation.
65
00:03:35,023 --> 00:03:36,724
Actually, I should go.
66
00:03:36,757 --> 00:03:38,893
I'll give you a call later.
67
00:03:49,212 --> 00:03:50,639
So?
68
00:03:52,215 --> 00:03:54,041
What do you have to say about all this?
69
00:03:54,468 --> 00:03:56,219
What is there to say?
70
00:03:57,220 --> 00:03:59,747
End of the day, the farm was Daddy's
71
00:03:59,781 --> 00:04:03,018
to do with as he pleased.
72
00:04:03,050 --> 00:04:04,185
Yeah?
73
00:04:04,770 --> 00:04:07,823
But the way you're acting
can't all be about the farm.
74
00:04:11,109 --> 00:04:13,828
You never even cared about it that much.
75
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,003
So what's really going on here?
76
00:04:23,637 --> 00:04:26,807
It was always the same
thing with me and Daddy.
77
00:04:28,043 --> 00:04:29,944
Didn't matter what it was.
78
00:04:31,211 --> 00:04:36,551
We always found ourselves
right back in that same place.
79
00:04:39,053 --> 00:04:40,721
You know?
80
00:04:40,755 --> 00:04:43,767
No, baby, I don't know.
81
00:04:44,024 --> 00:04:45,394
You...
82
00:04:46,937 --> 00:04:48,831
are gonna have to let me in.
83
00:04:50,482 --> 00:04:52,668
"When you gonna settle down?
84
00:04:55,028 --> 00:04:57,706
Girl, where my grandbabies at?"
85
00:05:01,993 --> 00:05:04,914
Could never seem to just let me be...
86
00:05:07,916 --> 00:05:09,118
me.
87
00:05:12,820 --> 00:05:14,221
Well, baby...
88
00:05:14,255 --> 00:05:18,093
your daddy was just...
89
00:05:18,125 --> 00:05:19,894
doing what fathers do.
90
00:05:26,059 --> 00:05:28,228
You didn't have to pay that no mind.
91
00:05:29,604 --> 00:05:30,873
That's what I thought.
92
00:05:33,875 --> 00:05:35,978
Then Charley gave him one.
93
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,014
Then Ralph Angel.
94
00:05:42,416 --> 00:05:44,752
After that, he stopped asking.
95
00:05:47,372 --> 00:05:49,625
I thought he was satisfied
96
00:05:49,658 --> 00:05:51,660
with who I am.
97
00:05:54,212 --> 00:05:56,197
But cutting me out of the farm?
98
00:05:59,502 --> 00:06:01,637
Feels like he's judging me.
99
00:06:06,725 --> 00:06:09,210
Pu... punishing me.
100
00:06:15,192 --> 00:06:17,218
Photographer landed
in town a couple of hours ago
101
00:06:17,252 --> 00:06:20,389
and should be joining us tomorrow
for the rest of the interview.
102
00:06:20,421 --> 00:06:21,658
Sounds great.
103
00:06:21,692 --> 00:06:23,025
So, we were thinking
104
00:06:23,058 --> 00:06:24,895
we should do it at the family farm,
105
00:06:24,929 --> 00:06:27,161
really tap into the legacy
angle you're pushing.
106
00:06:28,622 --> 00:06:30,232
- The farm.
- Uh-huh.
107
00:06:31,832 --> 00:06:35,152
Actually, let's start at the mill.
108
00:06:35,395 --> 00:06:38,924
The updates I've made
alongside the older equipment
109
00:06:38,957 --> 00:06:42,970
will make for a, uh,
apt visual metaphor.
110
00:06:43,303 --> 00:06:45,239
Can't argue with that.
111
00:06:45,272 --> 00:06:46,674
See you tomorrow.
112
00:07:21,307 --> 00:07:23,743
"To my dear children...
113
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,814
I, Ernest Bordelon,
114
00:07:27,847 --> 00:07:30,684
in sound mind and body,
115
00:07:31,650 --> 00:07:34,312
am revising my last will and testament.
116
00:07:35,364 --> 00:07:39,827
I hope no one needs this
for a long time.
117
00:07:41,034 --> 00:07:44,322
And I hope I can do this
in person one day.
118
00:07:45,448 --> 00:07:47,033
But if I can't...
119
00:07:48,315 --> 00:07:51,452
this paper will have to stand in for me.
120
00:07:53,233 --> 00:07:56,668
I've made the decision
to pass this land...
121
00:07:58,230 --> 00:08:03,302
land of my mother
and her father before her
122
00:08:03,327 --> 00:08:06,011
and his father before him,
123
00:08:06,292 --> 00:08:09,563
to the child of mine who needs it
124
00:08:09,588 --> 00:08:11,600
and loves it most...
125
00:08:12,411 --> 00:08:14,080
Ralph Angel.
126
00:08:15,976 --> 00:08:17,272
You, Ralph Angel,
127
00:08:18,618 --> 00:08:20,687
are more than you know.
128
00:08:21,066 --> 00:08:25,507
You and your sisters
are the moon and the sky
129
00:08:25,532 --> 00:08:28,406
and the stars to me.
130
00:08:28,406 --> 00:08:30,176
Each of you.
131
00:08:31,877 --> 00:08:34,281
But this land is yours.
132
00:08:36,207 --> 00:08:37,984
Whatever happened,
133
00:08:38,017 --> 00:08:40,670
whatever you've done in the past,
134
00:08:41,152 --> 00:08:44,716
never forget that you are
better than you think,
135
00:08:45,614 --> 00:08:47,802
that you are smarter than you think.
136
00:08:48,393 --> 00:08:51,230
You are stronger than you think.
137
00:08:52,898 --> 00:08:54,601
Take this land.
138
00:08:55,368 --> 00:08:57,479
Build a home here.
139
00:08:58,371 --> 00:09:02,075
Build a family for you and Blue here.
140
00:09:03,608 --> 00:09:06,112
Build our cane here...
141
00:09:06,579 --> 00:09:08,907
stalk by stalk.
142
00:09:10,367 --> 00:09:13,118
Build a good life here, Ralph Angel,
143
00:09:13,151 --> 00:09:15,921
so when you get to the end,
144
00:09:15,954 --> 00:09:18,358
you can look back and be proud
145
00:09:18,391 --> 00:09:22,963
of your days on this earth
and on this land.
146
00:09:23,695 --> 00:09:26,216
It's all yours, son.
147
00:09:27,366 --> 00:09:28,760
Do right.
148
00:09:29,701 --> 00:09:31,513
I know you can.
149
00:09:33,506 --> 00:09:35,608
Until we meet again.
150
00:09:35,641 --> 00:09:37,243
Pops."
151
00:09:58,427 --> 00:10:00,233
But he never took it to his lawyer.
152
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:02,711
Don't matter.
153
00:10:04,136 --> 00:10:05,471
His meaning is clear.
154
00:10:05,503 --> 00:10:06,673
Is it?
155
00:10:07,540 --> 00:10:09,041
Only thing that's clear
156
00:10:09,075 --> 00:10:11,109
is Daddy wrote this
right after you got out.
157
00:10:11,142 --> 00:10:12,644
He was in a state then.
158
00:10:12,677 --> 00:10:14,947
Maybe it was some
fantasy he was toying with.
159
00:10:15,265 --> 00:10:18,083
I mean, he didn't tell anyone about it,
160
00:10:18,117 --> 00:10:19,485
including you.
161
00:10:19,517 --> 00:10:20,854
Exactly.
162
00:10:22,272 --> 00:10:26,059
Wanting to believe you're
capable of doing all this
163
00:10:26,092 --> 00:10:28,995
and actually doing it
are two very different things.
164
00:10:32,297 --> 00:10:35,368
Just 'cause you two
only see my mistakes...
165
00:10:36,634 --> 00:10:39,004
it don't mean Pops felt the same way.
166
00:10:40,772 --> 00:10:42,207
Huh?
167
00:11:06,766 --> 00:11:08,468
Hi, Remy. What's up?
168
00:11:08,501 --> 00:11:10,435
It's the Jack Duvall situation.
169
00:11:10,469 --> 00:11:12,238
- I don't know what that is.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
170
00:11:12,271 --> 00:11:14,007
I thought Joe had spoken to you.
171
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:15,384
Jack's a local farmer.
172
00:11:15,417 --> 00:11:17,410
He cut his cane
and brought it to the mill.
173
00:11:17,443 --> 00:11:19,245
- Without an agreement?
- Yeah.
174
00:11:19,277 --> 00:11:21,180
Joe says that he can fit Jack
into the schedule tonight
175
00:11:21,213 --> 00:11:24,283
and still handle the rest of the
inflow if you're okay with that.
176
00:11:24,315 --> 00:11:26,685
Sure, as soon as we get
a signed contract
177
00:11:26,719 --> 00:11:29,689
and a deposit from Mr. Duvall,
Joe can handle the rest.
178
00:11:30,048 --> 00:11:31,557
I'm vouching for this man.
179
00:11:32,300 --> 00:11:35,360
I appreciate that,
and I hope you can appreciate
180
00:11:35,393 --> 00:11:37,162
that right now I prefer to do business
181
00:11:37,195 --> 00:11:38,630
with all the "I"s dotted
and "T"s crossed.
182
00:11:38,664 --> 00:11:41,334
- Mr. Duvall's at the mill now?
- Yeah, but listen...
183
00:11:41,367 --> 00:11:43,169
Great, great, I'll handle the paperwork.
184
00:11:43,201 --> 00:11:44,671
Okay, bye.
185
00:12:05,257 --> 00:12:06,526
I need you to go to the office
186
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,462
to prep a contract for a
farmer named Jack Duvall.
187
00:12:10,130 --> 00:12:11,530
He's waiting to grind.
188
00:12:11,564 --> 00:12:13,332
You know where the paperwork is?
189
00:12:13,364 --> 00:12:15,100
Yes. I'll get right on it.
190
00:12:15,133 --> 00:12:17,637
No. What are you doing?
191
00:12:18,429 --> 00:12:20,073
I need you here.
192
00:12:20,105 --> 00:12:21,516
She can go.
193
00:12:22,517 --> 00:12:24,377
This is a family matter anyway.
194
00:12:24,410 --> 00:12:27,747
She Blue's mom and my lady.
She is family.
195
00:12:27,780 --> 00:12:29,515
She's also my employee,
196
00:12:29,547 --> 00:12:32,485
and I need her to handle an emergency.
197
00:12:33,151 --> 00:12:35,187
Ralph Angel...
198
00:12:35,220 --> 00:12:36,621
this is apples and oranges.
199
00:12:36,655 --> 00:12:38,791
I ain't never heard
of no paper emergency.
200
00:12:39,284 --> 00:12:40,660
Nah, she mixing stuff up,
201
00:12:40,693 --> 00:12:42,695
trying to send Darla away
so y'all could gang up on me.
202
00:12:42,728 --> 00:12:44,796
- That's not what I'm doing.
- Yeah, it is!
203
00:12:49,085 --> 00:12:52,738
Go, please, before Mr.
Duvall's cane sours.
204
00:12:52,771 --> 00:12:55,775
- Okay.
- No, Darla.
205
00:12:55,807 --> 00:12:57,385
Stay.
206
00:12:58,386 --> 00:13:00,280
You a part of this.
207
00:13:09,147 --> 00:13:12,358
When they couldn't stand
to look at you, I was there.
208
00:13:12,391 --> 00:13:14,861
When they treated you
like nothing, I stood by you.
209
00:13:15,737 --> 00:13:18,363
- Why can't you do the same?
- I'm right here.
210
00:13:18,397 --> 00:13:19,699
Running off to the mill to help Charley
211
00:13:19,732 --> 00:13:21,434
is the same thing as taking her side!
212
00:13:21,467 --> 00:13:23,202
It's my job.
213
00:13:23,620 --> 00:13:25,704
Look, Charley and me, we ain't
seeing eye to eye on this thing,
214
00:13:25,738 --> 00:13:27,906
and I need you to stand by me.
215
00:13:27,940 --> 00:13:29,308
Please.
216
00:13:29,340 --> 00:13:31,810
I ain't got nobody else but you, Darla.
217
00:13:34,812 --> 00:13:36,448
You can't go, Darla.
218
00:13:39,350 --> 00:13:40,678
I can't go?
219
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,015
- Listen to yourself.
- Listen to me.
220
00:13:45,324 --> 00:13:48,426
I went to work for Charley
221
00:13:48,459 --> 00:13:50,562
because we needed money.
222
00:13:51,064 --> 00:13:54,799
We needed money because
I lost my parking lot job.
223
00:13:55,235 --> 00:13:58,271
And I lost that job
because I missed work
224
00:13:58,304 --> 00:14:00,406
to help scrub flies off of your cane.
225
00:14:05,444 --> 00:14:07,947
You can see this as betrayal,
but I see it as love.
226
00:14:11,916 --> 00:14:13,351
And I would never do to you
227
00:14:13,384 --> 00:14:15,287
what you're doing to me right now.
228
00:14:17,890 --> 00:14:19,492
Never.
229
00:16:59,584 --> 00:17:01,119
Hey, baby.
230
00:17:01,152 --> 00:17:03,022
I'm gonna lay him down in our room.
231
00:17:03,055 --> 00:17:04,924
Did he hear anything?
232
00:17:04,956 --> 00:17:08,093
He knows something's wrong,
but he'll be okay.
233
00:17:08,553 --> 00:17:09,995
We'll make sure of it.
234
00:17:12,798 --> 00:17:13,799
Hey, Mom?
235
00:17:13,831 --> 00:17:14,867
Hmm?
236
00:17:14,899 --> 00:17:17,002
I'm gonna head to Dad's,
237
00:17:17,437 --> 00:17:19,104
give you some space if that's okay.
238
00:17:19,588 --> 00:17:21,773
Yeah, okay, yeah.
239
00:17:35,753 --> 00:17:38,757
- I'll see you later.
- Mm-hmm.
240
00:17:40,492 --> 00:17:42,895
- Bye, Auntie.
- Bye, baby.
241
00:17:56,541 --> 00:17:57,909
You knew.
242
00:18:01,612 --> 00:18:03,548
And you didn't tell me.
243
00:18:04,449 --> 00:18:05,650
Baby...
244
00:18:07,785 --> 00:18:09,788
I didn't ask for none of this.
245
00:18:09,821 --> 00:18:10,889
I know.
246
00:18:13,858 --> 00:18:16,529
I just... I just didn't expect it.
247
00:18:20,799 --> 00:18:23,419
When I would come down
here for the summers,
248
00:18:25,070 --> 00:18:27,607
you were the one
that made everything okay.
249
00:18:29,942 --> 00:18:32,745
I mean, I didn't even have
my own room at Daddy's.
250
00:18:34,780 --> 00:18:37,016
But you kept one for me here.
251
00:18:38,649 --> 00:18:41,646
You always made sure
that I felt like I belonged.
252
00:18:42,730 --> 00:18:46,993
I wasn't just Daddy's
other daughter to you.
253
00:18:48,860 --> 00:18:49,928
Never.
254
00:18:49,962 --> 00:18:51,664
That meant a lot.
255
00:18:52,865 --> 00:18:55,635
This was the first home that I had here.
256
00:18:56,935 --> 00:18:59,538
I know that. I remember that.
257
00:18:59,570 --> 00:19:02,140
But since I got back,
it's all about Ralph Angel.
258
00:19:03,675 --> 00:19:05,010
All day, every day.
259
00:19:05,503 --> 00:19:08,880
And no matter what it is,
we're just supposed to...
260
00:19:08,914 --> 00:19:10,849
bend over backwards for him.
261
00:19:10,883 --> 00:19:14,153
'Cause you help the people
who need help.
262
00:19:14,428 --> 00:19:16,656
I need help, too.
263
00:19:18,290 --> 00:19:21,060
Ralph Angel went to prison
because he did something
264
00:19:21,477 --> 00:19:23,062
to make that happen.
265
00:19:23,896 --> 00:19:25,690
But what did I do
266
00:19:26,631 --> 00:19:28,733
to deserve what I'm going through?
267
00:19:31,970 --> 00:19:34,906
Yeah, everyone thinks that I'm just...
268
00:19:38,743 --> 00:19:40,745
I should just be okay.
269
00:19:54,225 --> 00:19:56,795
I want someone to fight for me.
270
00:20:10,576 --> 00:20:12,245
Baby, I'm sorry.
271
00:20:58,322 --> 00:21:00,025
Come on.
272
00:21:18,409 --> 00:21:20,146
No disrespect.
273
00:21:22,813 --> 00:21:24,849
But how are you gonna run the farm
274
00:21:24,883 --> 00:21:26,886
if I don't fund it?
275
00:21:27,918 --> 00:21:29,772
I'll do what I gotta do.
276
00:21:30,888 --> 00:21:32,566
What's that mean?
277
00:21:33,291 --> 00:21:36,928
I'll figure things out,
just like Pop did.
278
00:21:39,697 --> 00:21:40,999
Daddy never figured it all out.
279
00:21:41,032 --> 00:21:42,134
Don't talk about Daddy like that.
280
00:21:42,166 --> 00:21:44,245
I loved him just as much as you.
281
00:21:45,246 --> 00:21:47,773
I'm just dealing with what is,
282
00:21:47,806 --> 00:21:50,176
not with how I want things to be.
283
00:21:51,335 --> 00:21:54,060
I'm talking about specifics.
284
00:21:54,093 --> 00:21:56,381
Sooner or later, you have
to be in the real world.
285
00:21:56,415 --> 00:21:58,416
- I've been in the real world, Charley.
- I didn't mean...
286
00:21:58,449 --> 00:22:01,011
You ain't gotta worry about
how things gonna get done.
287
00:22:02,020 --> 00:22:03,764
I'll do what I need to do.
288
00:22:04,955 --> 00:22:07,226
Look, I won't be asking you for nothing.
289
00:22:18,869 --> 00:22:21,005
Landrys might charge me
an arm and a leg,
290
00:22:21,039 --> 00:22:23,776
but at least he don't
waste my time like this.
291
00:22:23,809 --> 00:22:26,011
What was it Ernest used to say?
292
00:22:26,043 --> 00:22:27,378
The only thing more frustrating
293
00:22:27,412 --> 00:22:29,915
about always having to
do things Charley's way
294
00:22:29,947 --> 00:22:32,817
is usually having
to admit that she's right.
295
00:22:34,852 --> 00:22:38,456
Mr. Duvall, I'm so sorry
to keep you waiting.
296
00:22:38,490 --> 00:22:39,992
Please look those over
297
00:22:40,024 --> 00:22:41,459
and let me know
if you have any questions.
298
00:22:41,493 --> 00:22:43,195
Hey.
299
00:22:43,637 --> 00:22:45,763
- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
300
00:22:45,797 --> 00:22:48,000
It's just been a really long day.
301
00:22:51,102 --> 00:22:53,337
I don't know what you want
from me, Charley.
302
00:22:53,370 --> 00:22:55,940
I ain't got no magic wand.
I can't just change the past.
303
00:22:55,974 --> 00:22:58,342
It's not the past I'm worried
about; it's the future.
304
00:22:58,376 --> 00:23:00,846
I'm doing everything I know how to do!
305
00:23:00,878 --> 00:23:03,948
I'm picking up some classes from
LSU, learn what I don't know.
306
00:23:03,982 --> 00:23:06,251
- And I'm gonna find some extra work.
- You keep saying that.
307
00:23:06,283 --> 00:23:08,020
But you're running a full-time business.
308
00:23:08,052 --> 00:23:09,454
You don't have
unlimited amounts of time.
309
00:23:09,487 --> 00:23:11,122
A man can only work so much!
310
00:23:11,156 --> 00:23:12,991
If I say I'm gonna work,
then that's what I'll do!
311
00:23:14,993 --> 00:23:16,427
Y'all need to start trusting me.
312
00:23:16,461 --> 00:23:19,165
- It's not about trust.
- We need to trust you?
313
00:23:20,854 --> 00:23:24,002
"I'm passing this land
to the child of mine
314
00:23:24,034 --> 00:23:26,938
who needs it and loves it most."
315
00:23:27,264 --> 00:23:28,906
Why do you think Daddy said that?
316
00:23:28,939 --> 00:23:30,545
Man, I don't know
what she talking about.
317
00:23:30,570 --> 00:23:31,852
It's not a trick.
318
00:23:32,409 --> 00:23:35,606
I'm just saying why did Daddy
say you needed it the most?
319
00:23:36,313 --> 00:23:38,750
I think it's because you're
the one who messed up the most.
320
00:23:38,783 --> 00:23:40,886
- Nova...
- We're all thinking it, Aunt Vi.
321
00:23:40,918 --> 00:23:43,155
Rah wants us to trust him
when he's the one who's proven
322
00:23:43,187 --> 00:23:45,290
over and over again
that he can't be trusted.
323
00:23:45,322 --> 00:23:46,440
I can't be trusted?
324
00:23:46,465 --> 00:23:48,893
All right, that's your brother
from the crib to the grave.
325
00:23:48,926 --> 00:23:49,884
That's enough.
326
00:23:49,909 --> 00:23:51,964
The real surprise
is that we're surprised.
327
00:23:51,996 --> 00:23:53,498
Daddy was always gonna do
something like this.
328
00:23:53,531 --> 00:23:55,367
- What the hell that mean?
- Doesn't matter what Rah did.
329
00:23:55,399 --> 00:23:57,969
It never changed the fact that
all Daddy ever saw was you.
330
00:23:58,002 --> 00:23:58,734
You can't put that on me.
331
00:23:58,759 --> 00:24:00,339
It's been that way
since before you were born.
332
00:24:00,371 --> 00:24:03,175
Daddy didn't even commit to Mama
until she was pregnant with you.
333
00:24:03,207 --> 00:24:05,276
- You wanna talk about Mama now?
- Fine. Fine!
334
00:24:05,310 --> 00:24:07,044
You wanna talk about people not
doing what they supposed to do?!
335
00:24:07,078 --> 00:24:08,981
- Talk about it.
- I was 10 when Pops told me
336
00:24:09,013 --> 00:24:11,050
I ain't got a mom no more!
337
00:24:11,997 --> 00:24:14,166
But he said I got the next best thing.
338
00:24:15,453 --> 00:24:16,772
A big sister.
339
00:24:17,955 --> 00:24:19,424
But you left.
340
00:24:19,456 --> 00:24:21,193
Soon as you could.
341
00:24:21,225 --> 00:24:23,427
Took your ass to New Orleans
and never turned around.
342
00:24:23,461 --> 00:24:24,947
She was my mother, too.
343
00:24:25,196 --> 00:24:26,998
I got through the best way I could,
344
00:24:27,031 --> 00:24:29,201
so what happened to you is on you.
345
00:24:30,368 --> 00:24:32,404
Okay, so now you both done said...
346
00:24:32,436 --> 00:24:34,205
I'm sick of being looked down on!
347
00:24:34,239 --> 00:24:35,874
- We're not doing that.
- The hell y'all ain't.
348
00:24:35,906 --> 00:24:38,577
Ralph Angel, do you honestly, honestly
349
00:24:38,609 --> 00:24:39,977
think you can run the farm
350
00:24:40,011 --> 00:24:42,447
and not lose it before the season's out?
351
00:24:52,256 --> 00:24:53,934
You're not ready.
352
00:24:55,460 --> 00:24:57,496
You don't have the experience.
353
00:24:57,529 --> 00:25:00,132
You don't have the means,
not by yourself.
354
00:25:04,202 --> 00:25:06,739
I think that's why Daddy
never filed this letter.
355
00:25:07,172 --> 00:25:08,866
He was waiting for you to...
356
00:25:10,041 --> 00:25:12,110
grow up and sh-show up.
357
00:25:19,016 --> 00:25:21,119
I hate to say it, baby.
358
00:25:22,755 --> 00:25:25,424
But Charley might be right about this.
359
00:25:27,391 --> 00:25:28,875
Ernest didn't mean to,
360
00:25:28,908 --> 00:25:33,031
but he put too much on you right now.
361
00:25:38,302 --> 00:25:40,039
You need your sisters.
362
00:25:44,175 --> 00:25:46,544
No, y'all are just mad
363
00:25:46,578 --> 00:25:48,580
I see what you see when you look at me.
364
00:25:50,615 --> 00:25:54,053
Just some dumb convict.
365
00:25:58,455 --> 00:26:00,993
- You're wrong.
- No.
366
00:26:01,025 --> 00:26:03,629
You don't get to tell me how I feel.
367
00:26:04,195 --> 00:26:06,632
And you don't get to tell me what to do.
368
00:26:07,064 --> 00:26:09,067
Not anymore.
369
00:26:31,990 --> 00:26:33,425
Ralph Angel...
370
00:27:03,521 --> 00:27:05,022
Hey.
371
00:27:11,295 --> 00:27:12,865
Thought you could use this.
372
00:27:14,198 --> 00:27:15,533
Thanks, honey.
373
00:27:18,269 --> 00:27:19,704
Is that coffee, too?
374
00:27:21,473 --> 00:27:23,442
It's a housewarming gift.
375
00:27:32,317 --> 00:27:33,618
You didn't have to do that.
376
00:27:37,155 --> 00:27:40,392
Look, I'm gonna...
I'm gonna go check on Keke.
377
00:27:41,326 --> 00:27:44,062
- Yeah. See you later.
- Hey.
378
00:27:44,095 --> 00:27:45,397
Thanks for everything.
379
00:27:45,429 --> 00:27:47,131
- You know I got you, man.
- Yeah.
380
00:27:47,165 --> 00:27:48,150
All right.
381
00:27:49,300 --> 00:27:52,112
Okay.
382
00:27:54,705 --> 00:27:56,533
Wow.
383
00:27:57,408 --> 00:28:00,212
You got it looking pretty nice in here.
384
00:28:06,216 --> 00:28:07,719
This really wasn't necessary.
385
00:28:08,752 --> 00:28:10,388
Yeah, I know.
386
00:28:12,089 --> 00:28:13,591
Open it anyway.
387
00:28:34,812 --> 00:28:37,315
An ice cream maker.
388
00:28:41,118 --> 00:28:43,387
I've always felt bad about
talking you out of putting it
389
00:28:43,420 --> 00:28:45,390
on our wedding registry.
390
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,096
Well, anyway...
391
00:28:51,128 --> 00:28:52,464
it's for your new beginning.
392
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,636
Thank you, Davis.
393
00:29:00,848 --> 00:29:04,409
Since you're here, I should tell you.
394
00:29:06,410 --> 00:29:08,814
I'm doing a piece
with "Gallant Magazine."
395
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,316
Charley, that's huge. Congratulations.
396
00:29:11,733 --> 00:29:14,285
I told them about the divorce.
397
00:29:21,259 --> 00:29:22,594
Why is that you get to flip the script
398
00:29:22,627 --> 00:29:24,162
whenever the hell you feel like it?
399
00:29:24,195 --> 00:29:26,906
Listen, we can go back and
forth about this all day,
400
00:29:26,940 --> 00:29:28,532
but it doesn't change anything.
401
00:29:28,566 --> 00:29:30,402
This is what's happening.
402
00:29:33,238 --> 00:29:35,374
The article won't be one-sided, Davis.
403
00:29:35,506 --> 00:29:37,092
I promise you.
404
00:29:37,541 --> 00:29:39,243
You'll get fair coverage.
405
00:29:39,277 --> 00:29:40,846
That's nice of you.
406
00:29:43,181 --> 00:29:44,616
Thanks.
407
00:30:32,297 --> 00:30:33,690
What's that?
408
00:30:35,150 --> 00:30:36,502
You tell me.
409
00:30:39,604 --> 00:30:42,541
All day, you sat there
listening to us argue
410
00:30:42,573 --> 00:30:44,775
over who owns this land.
411
00:30:44,809 --> 00:30:46,610
You never say anything about the fact
412
00:30:46,644 --> 00:30:49,447
that you used to own this farm.
413
00:30:49,957 --> 00:30:51,583
Used to.
414
00:30:52,783 --> 00:30:56,320
I sold my half interest
in the farm to your daddy
415
00:30:56,354 --> 00:30:58,290
over 30 years ago.
416
00:30:58,322 --> 00:31:01,435
You just... gave it up?
417
00:31:03,227 --> 00:31:05,763
17 going on stupid.
418
00:31:05,797 --> 00:31:09,968
Took up with a no-good,
good-looking man.
419
00:31:10,001 --> 00:31:11,687
Uncle Jimmy?
420
00:31:12,369 --> 00:31:14,939
Your daddy hated him.
421
00:31:16,441 --> 00:31:19,678
Said he was bad news
and forbid me to see him.
422
00:31:19,711 --> 00:31:22,480
Forbid? What did you do?
423
00:31:22,906 --> 00:31:26,350
What any 17-year-old who thinks
424
00:31:26,384 --> 00:31:31,455
she's the first girl in the
world to fall in love does...
425
00:31:31,489 --> 00:31:34,526
I moved in with him, married him.
426
00:31:35,210 --> 00:31:37,045
Bought this place.
427
00:31:37,595 --> 00:31:41,008
Things between Ernest
and I weren't the same.
428
00:31:41,499 --> 00:31:46,204
And over time, got so we barely spoke.
429
00:31:47,424 --> 00:31:49,793
At your grandmama's funeral,
430
00:31:49,974 --> 00:31:54,813
we literally did not say
one word to each other.
431
00:31:55,856 --> 00:31:59,451
I didn't know that night
whether I was crying
432
00:31:59,483 --> 00:32:01,653
because my mama was dead and gone
433
00:32:01,685 --> 00:32:05,224
or because my brother
was alive and gone.
434
00:32:07,759 --> 00:32:09,728
What happened to Jimmy Dale?
435
00:32:09,761 --> 00:32:12,664
Ah, Jimmy Dale.
436
00:32:12,696 --> 00:32:15,167
Drink, drugs, and disappointment.
437
00:32:15,633 --> 00:32:18,211
Then he started getting rough with me.
438
00:32:18,770 --> 00:32:20,589
I kept that to myself.
439
00:32:21,739 --> 00:32:23,842
When your daddy found out...
440
00:32:25,877 --> 00:32:28,813
it didn't matter
that we weren't speaking.
441
00:32:30,380 --> 00:32:32,483
He came back from California
442
00:32:32,516 --> 00:32:34,785
and took Jimmy Dale fishing.
443
00:32:35,820 --> 00:32:38,889
When they came back,
444
00:32:38,923 --> 00:32:41,826
Jimmy was packing his bags.
445
00:32:43,427 --> 00:32:45,629
That sounds like Daddy.
446
00:32:47,964 --> 00:32:50,410
When I filed for divorce,
447
00:32:51,402 --> 00:32:52,871
I...
448
00:32:53,804 --> 00:32:56,875
sold my half of the farm to your daddy,
449
00:32:57,541 --> 00:33:00,978
bought out Jimmy
and paid up my mortgage.
450
00:33:01,012 --> 00:33:03,714
But you had to give up your
family inheritance to get it.
451
00:33:03,747 --> 00:33:07,135
Mm-hmm, and I would do it
again in a hot second.
452
00:33:07,685 --> 00:33:10,138
I was angry at your daddy for years.
453
00:33:11,522 --> 00:33:12,991
Then...
454
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,364
he apologized to me...
455
00:33:21,832 --> 00:33:23,868
for not protecting me.
456
00:33:26,002 --> 00:33:27,705
I never got over that.
457
00:33:31,743 --> 00:33:33,811
He was right. I was wrong.
458
00:33:33,845 --> 00:33:36,648
But when it counted, he was there.
459
00:33:38,368 --> 00:33:40,794
Yeah, I lost the land,
460
00:33:41,551 --> 00:33:45,215
but I got back my freedom, independence,
461
00:33:46,022 --> 00:33:49,094
and, most important,
I got my brother back.
462
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:53,031
So, frankly, I got the
better part of the deal.
463
00:33:59,450 --> 00:34:00,689
Baby...
464
00:34:01,606 --> 00:34:03,842
compared to family,
465
00:34:03,875 --> 00:34:06,877
that land ain't nothing
but a mess of pottage.
466
00:34:08,166 --> 00:34:10,200
Love always comes first.
467
00:34:10,353 --> 00:34:11,855
And in the end,
468
00:34:12,016 --> 00:34:14,786
choosing the only thing that matters
469
00:34:15,951 --> 00:34:17,520
is what matters.
470
00:34:30,435 --> 00:34:31,402
Hey.
471
00:34:33,136 --> 00:34:36,473
That reporter's sniffing
around about your divorce.
472
00:34:36,933 --> 00:34:38,543
I know.
473
00:34:38,576 --> 00:34:40,604
I had to give him the story.
474
00:34:41,112 --> 00:34:42,564
Had to?
475
00:34:43,134 --> 00:34:45,069
It was a strategic move.
476
00:34:45,148 --> 00:34:46,851
Control the narrative.
477
00:34:50,688 --> 00:34:51,790
Hmm.
478
00:34:53,924 --> 00:34:55,493
What?
479
00:34:55,525 --> 00:34:56,895
You know...
480
00:34:59,130 --> 00:35:03,084
I had heard so much
about you before we met.
481
00:35:03,835 --> 00:35:05,203
Every time the farmers got together,
482
00:35:05,235 --> 00:35:09,674
your dad had at least one story
about your last success.
483
00:35:10,091 --> 00:35:12,777
Folks would say, "Well, of
course, 'cause she's so smart."
484
00:35:12,810 --> 00:35:17,014
And Ernest said...
485
00:35:17,047 --> 00:35:18,849
"smart" was the wrong word.
486
00:35:18,882 --> 00:35:22,486
- No, he insisted on "thoughtful."
- Hmm.
487
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,489
So when you decided to buy this place
488
00:35:24,522 --> 00:35:27,090
and stand up for the farmers,
that made sense to me,
489
00:35:27,123 --> 00:35:30,093
'cause it was both smart and
considerate of your community.
490
00:35:30,127 --> 00:35:32,831
- It was thoughtful, right?
- Mmm.
491
00:35:35,553 --> 00:35:37,369
But now I wonder...
492
00:35:37,935 --> 00:35:40,237
if I misunderstood your father.
493
00:35:40,664 --> 00:35:42,415
Yeah, maybe...
494
00:35:43,101 --> 00:35:44,834
maybe "thoughtful"...
495
00:35:46,110 --> 00:35:47,846
meant "calculating."
496
00:35:49,079 --> 00:35:51,148
You're using my father against me
497
00:35:51,181 --> 00:35:56,020
because you don't approve
of a choice I made for my life?
498
00:35:58,188 --> 00:36:01,951
I'm just trying to figure out how...
499
00:36:02,692 --> 00:36:06,563
a woman who's using her divorce
as a part of her business plan
500
00:36:06,596 --> 00:36:08,599
is the same one
that he was bragging about
501
00:36:08,632 --> 00:36:10,026
for all those years.
502
00:36:11,152 --> 00:36:14,105
Makes me wonder what else
you're being thoughtful about.
503
00:36:14,137 --> 00:36:18,243
I mean, the mill? Farmers?
504
00:36:20,472 --> 00:36:21,674
Me?
505
00:36:25,782 --> 00:36:27,585
You need to walk out.
506
00:36:32,617 --> 00:36:35,218
Please go.
507
00:37:18,936 --> 00:37:21,239
If you're mad at me
for leaving last night...
508
00:37:23,534 --> 00:37:24,902
I can deal with it.
509
00:37:27,844 --> 00:37:29,522
You can deal with it?
510
00:37:30,246 --> 00:37:31,549
Why you here?
511
00:37:32,382 --> 00:37:34,151
Because I'm not gonna let your anger
512
00:37:34,185 --> 00:37:36,186
get in the way of me seeing Blue.
513
00:37:39,407 --> 00:37:41,993
If you're not gonna
let me in the house...
514
00:37:44,027 --> 00:37:45,696
I'll take him swimming.
515
00:37:45,730 --> 00:37:47,374
So this is how it is now?
516
00:37:48,491 --> 00:37:49,926
Whatever you want?
517
00:37:50,134 --> 00:37:51,603
Never mind my feelings?
518
00:37:51,636 --> 00:37:54,005
You're not just punishing
me, Ralph Angel.
519
00:37:59,909 --> 00:38:01,221
Blue!
520
00:38:02,639 --> 00:38:04,915
Put your swimming trunks on!
521
00:38:12,790 --> 00:38:14,960
I'll wait in the car.
522
00:38:28,438 --> 00:38:31,174
All right, baby.
523
00:38:35,913 --> 00:38:38,466
Hello, sir.
524
00:38:39,449 --> 00:38:41,718
Choosing to take you up on your offer.
525
00:38:44,221 --> 00:38:47,759
I'll see you soon.
526
00:39:37,808 --> 00:39:39,844
What you say there, young blood?
527
00:39:39,877 --> 00:39:41,378
Brought you a cold one.
528
00:39:42,980 --> 00:39:44,882
Aunt Vi send you?
529
00:39:44,915 --> 00:39:47,152
I don't need her to tell me
to come see my partner.
530
00:39:55,860 --> 00:39:57,829
She tell you about
what happened last night?
531
00:39:57,862 --> 00:39:59,130
Enough.
532
00:40:01,532 --> 00:40:03,009
All Daddy wanted...
533
00:40:04,067 --> 00:40:06,336
was for me to raise
my family on this land.
534
00:40:07,471 --> 00:40:09,724
But it seem like everybody against me.
535
00:40:10,174 --> 00:40:12,310
Even Darla.
536
00:40:14,978 --> 00:40:17,247
- I don't know if we still together.
- Oh, don't say that.
537
00:40:17,281 --> 00:40:19,317
Everybody goes through rough patches.
538
00:40:19,349 --> 00:40:22,721
Nah, Wood. This feels different.
539
00:40:25,790 --> 00:40:28,726
Everything Pops thought
I could be is falling apart.
540
00:40:33,096 --> 00:40:34,999
I don't know what to do.
541
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,003
You're gonna wake up every day.
542
00:40:39,889 --> 00:40:41,631
You're gonna work this land.
543
00:40:42,206 --> 00:40:44,041
You're gonna be a good father to Blue.
544
00:40:44,074 --> 00:40:46,970
You gonna do what every other
farmer around here does.
545
00:40:47,944 --> 00:40:49,179
And in due time,
546
00:40:49,597 --> 00:40:51,948
this too shall pass.
547
00:41:04,571 --> 00:41:07,991
It's less about
reinvention than it is...
548
00:41:08,565 --> 00:41:11,334
It's less about reinvention
than it is about evolution.
549
00:41:11,368 --> 00:41:13,436
The real goal is to help
this community realize...
550
00:41:13,469 --> 00:41:15,038
Hey, Charley, I thought
we'd just continue
551
00:41:15,072 --> 00:41:16,941
with the interview
while they finish setting up.
552
00:41:16,973 --> 00:41:18,208
Okay, yeah.
553
00:41:24,915 --> 00:41:28,418
How would your father feel
about you reinventing yourself
554
00:41:28,451 --> 00:41:31,139
as a budding agricultural industrialist?
555
00:41:31,621 --> 00:41:34,324
Well, I'm not reinventing myself
556
00:41:34,357 --> 00:41:36,894
as much as I'm...
557
00:41:38,295 --> 00:41:41,866
I'm, uh... I'm using my...
558
00:41:46,036 --> 00:41:47,505
Um...
559
00:41:50,174 --> 00:41:52,277
I'm using my, uh...
560
00:41:54,143 --> 00:41:55,412
uh...
561
00:42:05,255 --> 00:42:08,458
You asked what my father
would feel, right?
562
00:42:12,362 --> 00:42:13,630
I don't know.
563
00:42:41,963 --> 00:42:50,072
