Last season on queen sugar...
[darla] I'd like as much love
surrounding this baby as possible.
Really good to meet you. Fan of your work, your voice.
I just want to get to know you better.
[prosper] I wanna thank you for being here.
I'm your daughter. I'm supposed to be here.
I knew you were into photography, but damn, bro!
Something has come up in the friendship. Intimacy.
Charley bordelon, will you marry me?
Yes.
I didn't know what you were going through
with jimmy dale.
[billie] he spread vicious rumors about me.
Did you ever stop to think
if what you heard was true?
[clattering]
I didn't wanna do it. Said he'd do to my mom what they did to my dad.
I love you, mijo.
You did this shit and you were caught red-handed.
[parker] please send my father in.
[prosper] ralph angel signs over the farm to me,
and the rest goes away.
I'm ready to run for united states congress.
You wanna see change, maybe we gotta be the ones to do it.
So the idea is for a co-op.
We can prove historical artefacts.
Making this a historic landmark was just the beginning.
Whatever.
[ralph] you know what's about to happen next.
I promise this ain't the end.

Tell you that much.
But I couldn't do it.
Couldn't take that deal.
Not when all them farmers put they trust in me.
You did the right thing.
After katrina and ida, they're all so tired.
I told my wife maybe we should move.
[chuckles softly] but...
Too hard to start over.
When you make a promise,
you gotta stick with it, you know?
Look, man, I know you out here till you get
that co-op business up and running, but...
We like having you around.
You talk a lot.
[chuckles]
that's what my pop used to say.
[sighs]
wonder if he can hear me now.
Keep him in your heart, bro.
He gon' hear you.

Look at my baby. Look at my baby!
That's my little man.
[laughs]
well, good morning!
Morning!
-Mwah! [laughs] -hello!
Hello!
[darla] you hear that?
Yes, she is! [chuckles]
look at how much she's grown.
[darla] I know. She's so big now.
[baby coos]
[darla] do you want some coffee?
No, I'm good.
[darla] come here, come here.
Yay!
-Well, hello little one. -[baby cooing]
yes!
Tell me, how's your day? How your day is going?
Did you ever get any rest last night?
Four glorious hours.
-Ooh! -It's a new record.
First time in six months.
Now, if you need us to watch her one night,
just say the word.
Aw.
Thank you, but...
I am not the one that I'm worried about.
Ralph angel will burn himself out
working two jobs like that.
Hopefully soon,
he'll start getting a salary from the co-op, but,...
In the meantime, I'm...
I think it's really good for him to be busy.
Yeah.
You know, him and ernest are the same.
Whenever times got rough they just walked away.
I feel bad for him, he can't do that no more.
Ms. Trinh.
Hey.
What's going on?
[chuckles softly]
mmm.
You doing?
Um, my mom and brother
sent this from dallas for the baby.
It's supposed to be good luck.
[chuckles]
how ms. Phan been enjoying retirement?
In name only.
She calls me twice a day to check up on me.
-[laughs] -backseat boss.
She been here for what, 30 years?
Longer.
She was 10 when her parents bought this place.
Khanh tells me you're pretty broken up about the farm.
I am so sorry.
It would have been nice to...
Leave my land to my kids, but...
Guess god got other plans, huh?
Hey.
I know how much that place meant to you.
So if there's anything I can do to help, just...
Let me know.
Hey, you ready to go?
Hey.
Hey, uh, ralph.
[ralph angel] what's going on?
-How you doing? -It's ralph angel.
[ralph angel] it's good to see you, man.
Yeah.
Tell khanh he still owes me a beer.
[laughs]
tell ms. Phan I said thank you.
-And stop working. -I'll try.
You're a lucky man, dude.
-I know it. -I'm the lucky one.
[ralph angel] y'all be easy.
Yo.
Hey. Where my little princess at?
-[violet] hey, you. -Your daddy miss you.
Hey, baby.
How was your day?
I have another box from charley.
-Ah. -Mmm.
-Lord. -It's from ms. Phan.
This baby only six months old
and got more gifts than I had in my whole life.
That's because she is a princess
and she deserves to be spoiled.
That's right. What's up, baby girl? Huh?
[chuckling]
-hi, daddy. -Hi, what's up, baby?
I'm gonna finish getting ready and then we can go.
It's from ms. Phan.
Oh. Huh.
[ralph angel] what's up, my little sugar puff?
-You want more milk? -[baby laughing]
-what on earth are you doing? -[ralph angel] more milk.
Baby sign language.
All the books say that
babies learn languages before they can speak.
More... Milk. There she goes.
Y'all with this new-age parenting
is something else.
Then she can tell me what she wants.
Ain't that right?
I ain't never had no trouble understanding you,
your sisters, or blue. I know what she wants.
She's teething. [chuckles]
-milk. -Milk.
-See? She got it. -She is gonna love this.
-See? -She's gonna love it.
Vi.
Now, you know we are trying
to keep the baby's diet plant-based.
When did you hear of a vegan baby? Hmm?
I mean, it's not like she's got high sugar.
And it's not really meat, it's a bone!
Okay. [chuckles]
I understand. [sighs softly]
[cell phone ringing]
[charley] micah, hey!
Mom, I, uh...
I'm proud of you, I am, but...
Can you please stop sending me packages?
Like, bezos is rich enough
and my apartment is not even that big.
So, I'm about to start a slew of party leadership meetings.
I gotta go.
-Yeah. I miss you. -Miss you, too.
-Give 'em hell. -Have a good day. Bye.
Hi.
-Hey. -[chuckles]
I had fun last night.
Me too.
-You about to get out of here? -Mmm-hmm.
-Oh, you got somewhere to be? -I do.
So you just wake up looking like this?
-[chuckles] all the time. -[laughs]
-I'll call you. -You better.
-You better answer. -[chuckles softly]
[exhales]
[cell phone pings]
[laughs]
[cell phone ringing]
billie, I try to stay in my own lane
when it comes to your personal business,
but you can't keep ignoring vince's calls.
You look nice!
-Hot date? -Oh, hush.
Just heading over sandy's.
She needs help fixing a window.
You must have fixed her whole house by now, daddy.
-Easy. -[chuckles]
now, we're just friends, but I do enjoy her company.
And?
And how is the money for the debt relief coming?
[sighing] still on hold.
White farmers claiming reverse discrimination.
Can you believe that?
All right.
You smell real nice, daddy.
Hey, we said no phones.
Oh.
-You know, I'm nervous. -Mmm.
[sighs]
I always get nervous when a big article drops,
but this one has so much riding on it.
It is beautiful out here.
You know...
It's funny.
How you can grow up someplace,
think you know all the spots...
And still find places you've never been.
So what's next?
-Ah! Okay. -[laughs]
let's be tourists.
We can get beignets at cafe du monde,
and oysters at felix's,
and finish the day drinking hurricanes on an airboat.
Yuck. I had hurricanes on a dare once in high school
and I'm never doing it again.
All right, well, what about the airboat?
I mean, they're awesome.
And you know I grew up in florida,
I can show you some sick moves.
That I wanna see.
But today...
-Let's just be lazy. -Mmm.
-I like lazy. -Oh, good.
[chuckles]
aw. God, she's changing so fast.
Feel like these last six months just flew by.
Yesterday, she looked up at me and smiled.
She had this, like, huge big grin on her face.
-[chuckles] -it was so cute.
All the moments I missed with blue.
[sighs] you're not missing it.
You're with her every day.
She'll do it again.
I'll film it next time and send it to you.
This co-op?
Gotta work.
Haven't been doing all this for nothing.
It will.
If mo evans approves that application today...
Finally be legit.
Southern louisiana federation of co-ops.
[chuckles softly] sounds good.
[darla inhales and exhales deeply]
baby, listen to me.
You did all the heavy lifting.
She's making the trip.
If it was a no, she'd send an email.
She's coming because of you.
[sighs] and I...
...I want you to take care of yourself.
Mmm, that's why I started swimming again.
You need something.
Maybe, uh...
Weren't you and hollywood supposed to go fishing?
And I hate fishing and fish.
Uh, being around fish all day.
[laughs] well.
That did not stop you from going back to work for your hot ex-girlfriend.
What'd you say?
Somebody jealous.
-Uh-oh. [laughs] -I'm not jealous.
I'm not jealous.
Nobody got nothing on you, baby.
I promise.
[engine starts]
you still gonna take the long way?
Are you ever gonna drive by the land again?
Not yet.
Micah already left?
Yeah, he was running late for his photography class,
but he knew I'd kill him if he didn't finally drop them off. [laughs]
I can't believe charley had all of this hiding in her garage.
Hell, we need a vcr. [laughs]
how's her campaign going?
She won the primary.
If I know charley, mmm,
she'll be sitting with the squad come November.
Oh.
Now I'm saying this as a professional cultural anthropologist.
Now just take this.
A perfectly encapsulated moment in time
illustrating the influence of pop culture on young, black girls.
Now I'm gonna guess this is, like... Like, 1995
-when waterfalls came out. -Give me that.
-Oh! [laughs] -all right, give it to me. Give it to me.
[both laughing]
-[nova] oh. -You three were crazy, sexy, cool.
-I know, I'm... -Did you just...
-It sounded weird when it came out. -Did you really... Yeah.
But you got... But look, it's true, look.
Especially left eye
-with the overalls. -Oh, especially left eye?
Mmm-hmm. Mmm.
I mean, in this picture, left eye is... Everything.
[both laugh]
[computer dings]
it's up.
Top of homepage.
Did they include the full list of the massacre victims' names?
Yes, this will finally put an end to parker's petition.
"nova bordelon and dominic bachard's profile serve to resurrect
the story of a group of farmers in louisiana
who fought for a living wage in the early 1800s.
By filming their living descendants'' stories,
and using the victims' own words,
this silent legacy is finally giving them a voice it deserves in our history."
you are gonna be the next nikole hannah-jones.
[violet] oh, we all grew up hearing stories,
but we didn't know the details.
My great grandmother, may, lived with us at the end of her life.
And even then, she never wanted to talk about it.
She was afraid to say something.
None of them have to be afraid anymore.
[laughs]
-[violet laughs] -[hollywood] here, baby.
How you doing?
[hollywood laughs]
[violet] hello, how are you?
-[cooing] - ♪ I know it's hard to turn ♪
oh, what is this, joaquin?
It's a twist on your blackberry pie.
I added something to give it a kick.
I told you before.
Don't be messing with my recipes.
Now I just hired you back here, I know you want to be a chef,
but don't think I won't pick you out of the kitchen.
Joaquin.
[baby cooing]
this is delightful.
Really?
[hollywood] it is really good.
[both laughing]
I think you might have something here. You tell your mama thank you.
And tell her we'd love to see her more.
I'll let her know.
You really like it?
Yes, now go on 'cause I'm not paying you to cook.
Yet.
[violet chuckles]
mmm-hmm.
Look who's warming up to joaquin being back here.
I still got my eye on that boy.
But this pie is great.
-It's delicious. -Mmm-hmm.
That's for the whole year.
-Yep. -Mmm.
Keke.
[both laughing]
micah west.
-[laughs] hi. -It's been forever.
How you been?
I'm good.
I'm actually here to take a class with this photographer activist.
Dude's like the next gordon parks.
Rahad stephens?
-Oh, you know his work? -I do.
-I'm his ta. Amongst other things. -Ooh.
Amongst other things.
-Okay. -Not like that.
I run his nft accounts.
He has an aversion to the internet.
It takes away from his art.
You better get in there.
-Yeah. -[laughs]
-he hates it when his students are late. -Yeah.
Hey, it's good to see you.
You too.
Y'all did it, bro.
-Um, excuse me. -Yes, ma'am.
I'm interested in a csa subscription.
Yes, absolutely.
All right, it's farm fresh produce delivered straight to your door.
Locally grown by black farmers.
We'll give you a quick tour and we'll get you situated. Okay?
[ralph] mo'll be here in a minute.
-You got that final sale count for me? -Mo evans?
The mo evans?
You sent all of us a link to her ted talk
-about a hundred times. -[laughing]
I just wanna make sure y'all familiar with her when she get here.
-All right? -Yeah.
[ralph] all right.
[all laughing]
so what are your intentions with my friend sandy?
It's been six months.
None of us are getting any younger.
You need to do something or let her find someone who will.
I'm gonna get that coffee refill.
Okay.
Excuse me, parthena, can I talk to you for a minute?
So I looked over your books like you asked.
And the third account is overdrawn.
I know, still waiting for debt relief money.
Okay, I'm a little bit worried about you falling so far behind on your mortgage.
You're almost 90 days past due.
I can't pay the bills if the money's not there.
Have you filed for an extension on your mortgage payment?
Sure did.
Three months ago.
I'm still waiting for the approval.
It always comes at the last minute.
Yeah.
We should go check on it.
-I'll drive you. -All right.
Okay.
[sighs]
[darla] this isn't the end. You begin again.
Like you did before...
...And they did before us.
[car pulling up]
oh, this is it.
She's here, y'all.
She's here. Come on.
So is mo short for something?
No, my brothers just started calling me mo
when I was little and it stuck.
My first word, I always wanted mo.
[darla laughs]
[laughs] well, ain't nothing wrong with wanting mo.
Well, that's what I tell the ladies.
[all laughing]
no, seriously, thank you for coming, mo.
-Mmm. -You know, I've read all your books
and took your classes and the seminar about land trust.
You know, I even sent all the farmers your ted talk.
Several times.
Yep, with commentary.
-[laughs] -I first heard about your name
when I read up on the freedom georgia initiative.
Well, it's inspiring what they're doing.
They're reclaiming the land.
Black wall street and a self-sustaining farm?
-It's incredible. -Yeah.
We basically modeled our co-op after yours.
You know, csa set up. Land trust next.
You a real inspiration around here.
And this is my big sis, nova.
She's writing an article on the co-op.
Nova bordelon.
You have quite a reputation.
All good, I hope.
I don't shy away from bad either.
I've been watching your profiles online.
Powerful.
Thank you, that land means everything to our family
and my brother sacrificed it all in order to make this co-op work.
Nothing extraordinary happens without taking chances.
[ralph] speaking of chances, mr. Prosper been taking a chance
on this new youth program we've been developing.
-You wanna, um... -Yes.
-Yeah, beautiful, beautiful. -[mo] let's do it. All right.
-Hope to see you later, nova. -You too.
Excuse me.
What you doing?
-What? -What?
I saw the way y'all was gazing and all that.
Don't go pulling a nova, nova.
-I know how you move. -Don't.
-I'm serious. -Okay.
[ralph] it's looking good.
Y'all settle down, please.
[indistinct conversations]
look, I know it ain't much, but please.
[woman 1] ridiculous. What am I supposed to do with that?
First you sit through a million meetings, what for?
Once we cover overhead costs, we'll be right back where we were.
When is that gonna be? We all got bills to pay.
Well, maybe a few weeks.
-[parthena] maybe a few weeks? -[woman 2] come on, ralph!
One, two weeks.
[group exclaiming]
[indistinct speaking]
like I said before, this ain't nothing but a pipe dream.
Hey, hey!
For those of you I haven't met yet, I'm mo evans.
I'm here representing the southern louisiana federation of co-ops.
What ralph angel and y'all have accomplished
over these last six months is extraordinary.
Eighty percent of those doing the farming are black and brown,
but only 3% are owners.
Well, it don't feel any different.
Well, it should.
You are building the foundation. That is the hardest part.
Okay, next is the house, but you won't get there
if you start measuring the value of what you're doing here to those checks.
Every force out there will try to tear you apart.
Don't let 'em.
I came to let you know we've approved your application to join us.
[indistinct conversation]
welcome to the 3%.
[mouthing] thank you.
[indistinct conversations]
our revolution is based on land.
Know who said that?
No.
Malcolm.
All the farmers that came before us and died on our land,
they disrupted the system.
They didn't just take what was given to them,
they demanded respect.
This co-op...
...Is for them.
And now, it's our turn...
...To disrupt the system.
Reclaim what we lost.
But...
...The only way we could do it
is if we move together...
...As a unit.
-[indistinct conversation] -[man 1] makes sense.
-[clapping] -[woman 3] yeah, let's stick together.
[kenny] hey, billie.
Thanks again.
All that lida stuff really gives me a headache.
No, it's no problem.
You get used to it, it's like learning another language.
I mean, uh...
A few of us are having a bonfire this weekend,
if you're not busy 'cause
-I think you should come along. -Um...
Yeah, I'm not really the bonfire party kind anymore, so...
Well, we could maybe do something else?
-Go into town? I know a place. -Kenny.
Look, you're really sweet, but I'm gonna have to stop you right here.
Okay, just, uh...
...Don't say no yet.
It's all timing and...
...I get it.
I'm a patient man, billie denton.
Take it easy.
[micah] honestly, I was just surprised to see you.
I know.
You looked like a deer at the start of hunting season.
Oh, come on.
[laughs] you never liked surprises.
Okay, to be fair, like,
-surprises haven't exactly gone over well in my family. -Mmm.
-Mmm-hmm. -So...
Yeah, and how are they?
Your mom is all over the news.
Yeah, I mean, dad is killing it.
You know, mom's campaign is on fire.
Yeah, squad is hot.
Yeah, well, I mean, she gotta win first.
-Okay. Yeah. -She gotta win first but, uh...
Honestly, I think she missed california.
You know what I'm saying, like, she loved it here, but...
And you?
You moving back to la too?
Nah.
Nah, I'm here.
-Oh, so you finally free. -[laughs]
your parents miles away.
-Parents miles away. -No curfew.
-[laughs]
-that's all. -Nice.
Walk the river with me.
[groans] keke.
-Micah. -I want to, I want to, I just, um...
I got this family christening to be to in a couple of hours.
I just can't show up faded.
So much for being in the moment.
But I'll see you in class.
Cool?
[groans softly]
wait!
Yo!
You just gonna leave me like that?
Yeah. [laughs] catch up.
[both laughing]
thanks again, prosper.
I want you to know I'm happy to help whenever you need me.
Um...
You know, I want you to know that...
...Sometimes I like to get out.
I mean...
...With you outside...
...Alone.
Are you asking me out?
It's, uh, it's been a long time since I've felt like this.
Ms. Sandy,
would you like to go out with me on a real date?
-Child, I was running out of things for you to fix. -[both laughing]
[deborah on computer] nova, hey, listen.
There's an offer on the table for blessings and blood.
They wanna turn your book into a movie.
The times profiles have garnered a lot of attention.
The producers submitted an offer and it's substantial.
High, six figures.
The other two movies that they just did are also on oprah's book club.
I can't believe this. I can't.
Can I have some time before I give them an answer to sit with this?
[deborah] tell me you're not thinking of saying no.
- Nova. -[sighs]
something like this doesn't come along everyday.
Think about it.
But call me back quick, okay? Thanks.
[computer logs out]
[laughs]
[exclaims]
a hollywood producer wants to turn my book into a movie.
-Ah! -[laughs]
and apparently the offer is high, six figures.
Like, what does that even mean?
I mean, half a million? More?
And... And they wanna meet me.
This is huge. We gotta celebrate.
[sighs]
-what's wrong? -I can't do this.
I need to think.
Can I?
The book almost broke my family.
Opened up old wounds.
Everyone is so vulnerable right now.
[ralph] see your uncle.
-Like he claims. -[violet] aw, hey, baby girl.
You know that my great grandmother made me this,
so this for her daughter.
Got a long line of powerful women inside of you.
Their blood is coursing through your veins.
Feel that the world is stacked against you,
their voices are gonna guide you in.
That's right, baby girl.
-Mmm-hmm. -Gorgeous.
The dress and the words.
-Mmm-hmm. -[micah] hey, mom. Can you hear me?
-Everybody say hi. -[charley laughs]
-[blue] hey, everybody. -[darla] hi!
- I was literally about to call you. -[violet] we miss you so much.
-[charley] miss you too. -Talk to your baby sister.
- Hi, true. -We love you all so much
and we're all so grateful that you're here with us today.
Say hi.
-Hi. -[ralph] that's your big bro.
- You looks so pretty. -[priest] thank you all for coming.
[violet] oh.
♪ you'd rather cooperate ♪
what name do you name your child?
[ralph] true.
True bordelon.
After her grandmother.
Well, she certainly have an angel watching over her.
[ralph] that's right.
Here we go.
True, I baptize you in the name of the father.
-[baby fussing] -[ralph] it's okay, baby.
In the name of the son.
In the name of the holy spirit.
Amen.
That's all, true. You did it, you did it, you did it.
You did it, true, you did it.
Hey.
I was looking for you. You and that phone.
-What's up, millennial? [laughs] -[laughs] I think I'm gen z.
Why are you hiding over here?
[groans]
today was just a weird day.
-You know, um, my ex, keke? -Mmm.
I ran into her at the center.
Ah, okay.
That was the first friend I
made down here, and it was just, like, whoa!
Like, we have all these memories between us, and... And...
You know, there's still kinda, like, this vibe.
I don't know, I went to class,
and my teacher started showin' us all these, like, weird, little...
-Micah? Are you high? -...Pictures a...
-A little bit. -Oh--
I had to.
I... Keke was givin' me all this shit, like,
"oh, micah, you never do anything spontaneous."
and you fell for that?
-Oh, gosh, is it obvious? -[laughing] yeah, mmm-hmm.
-[micah exhaling] uh, man. -It's okay.
Now all jokes aside, that thing...
-...For tru? -Mmm.
Ah, it was beautiful.
Wait, when I was baby, y'all ever, I don't know, do something like that for me?
Your parents aren't the lesson type.
-[micah exhaling] -but you...
...Were blessed from the minute you were born.
-Come here. I love you. -And I love you, too.
-Come and join us, huh? -All right.
-When you're ready. -Yeah, when I...
Get it together.
-[micah chuckling] get it together... Right. -Get it all the way together.
-I'm gonna sit right here and... -All the way. [chuckling]
[laughing] ...Figure my stuff out.
-What? -[chuckling] girl, micah is baked.
Can you imagine bein' 21 again?
Nah, that would be terrible.
-Nova? -Hmm?
A real movie?
-[shrieking] -ba-ba-ba-ba!
Please don't make me regret telling you.
I can keep a secret... Now. I've grown.
Yeah, that was too soon, I'm sorry.
Your secret is safe with me.
-[softly] it's just so exciting! -Mmm-hmm.
-Can I be in the movie? -But...
-[softly] no, I... I know that I'm not in the book... -[snorting]
...And I don't care about that.
-Just put me in the movie. -[laughing]
no, no, do you remember when we used to steal daddy's truck?
-Yeah. Yeah. -And we would hang in the woods?
-And put... Put that in the movie. -[banging]
[whispering] shut up!
What?
[nova giggling]
what are y'all gossipin' about?
Dominic? I wanna hear.
Spill it! It's been six months.
-That's almost a lifetime in nova years. -Oh!
Hey! That's not fair. I'm not that bad!
I was with calvin for almost five years.
[meekly] I mean, I know, four a those he was still married.
Nothing to tell, mmm-mmm.
Dominic is great. Mmm-hmm.
Well, we're all glad. We like him.
And we were worried. We didn't wanna lose him.
You know you can go through men like water?
And where is this coming from? And I haven't only dated men.
And we never meet the ladies.
You gotta find someone when you're ready to receive what they're giving.
Ah! That sounds like some super soul Sunday advice.
[softly] I read a lotta self-help last year.
But nova, sounds like you really found that. Don't take it for granted.
I don't. We're really happy.
There's no drama with dominic.
We just work together, it's...
...Nice.
Mmm, I just want you to be happy, that's all.
And it seems like dominic makes 'ya happy.
And if nice is enough for you, then god bless!
-All right. Go on. [laughing] -all right.
-[softly] so you're gonna put me in the movie, right? -[scoffing]
I want more family tradition.
This book...
...Is the first piece a property our family owned.
And passed down through generations...
...They kept track of the land in the back...
...And the family in the front.
Our beautiful baby girl, miss tru bordelon...
...She was born on our land.
You know, um...
...I wasn't around when blue was born,
so I wasn't able to add his name to the book, my daddy handled it.
That bein' said, I'm proud...
...To add...
...Miss tru... No "e"...
[all laughing]
...Bordelon.
After everything we've been through...
...It's easy just to look around, and see the cup half empty,
play victim.
But when I look around, that's not what I see.
I see everything I need...
...Right here in front a me.
That goes for you too, blue and charley.
I love you all with all my heart.
[charley] we love you, too.
I love you mom. I love you pops.
Wish I was there with you.
I love you. I love you.
-I love you, too. -[softly] I know you do.
[clearing throat] that's all she wrote.
[vehicle approaching]
-[nova] hmm? -[ralph angel softly] who is that?
Mmm-mmm. Get back in the car and turn around, you are not welcome here, sam!
-[hollywood] did 'ya all hear, landry? -Come on, now.
Here me out, please. We're family.
-[violet] family. -[ralph angel] you're not family.
I hope I'm not interruptin' anything important.
What do you want, sam? Spit it out!
I came here to congratulate miss nova on an excellent article.
All right, tracing the names of all these victims, that was a hell of a lotta hard work.
And your call to action,
seeking out living descendants to ensure the land remains untouched was genius.
But because a all that hard work, we found out
that our family is intertwined with yours, once again...
...In the grave.
What are you talkin' about? There are no landry's, no boudreaux' s in that grave.
Are you serious, sam?
She wouldn't want this!
Uh, vi? What's goin' on?
Arsenault, those are betty's people, her maiden name.
Parker's mother.
Parker's a living descendent of the massacre.
And now, she's filed a petition
to overturn the historical marker status on her land.
With that piece, we can finally expand the outlet mall, as planned.
We will remove the bones first, of course,
and then the concrete trucks will pave over the rest.
We've already been in touch with most of the living descendants,
so it's gonna take a lot more than your pathetic daughter to overturn the marker.
Huh! Well, we'll see.
I better let you get back to that baby.
Sam...
