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 wanted to get to know you better.
Prosper: I want to 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.
He spread vicious rumors about me.
Did you ever stop to think if what you heard was true?
[ Clattering ]
Joaquin: Didn't want to 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!
Woman: Please send my father in.
Sam: Ralph Angel signs over the farm to me,
and the rest goes away.
I'm ready to run for United States Congress.
We want to see change, maybe we gotta be the ones to do it.
The idea is for a co-op.
'Cause if we can prove historical artifacts...
Making this a historic landmark was just the beginning.
Whatever.
Ralph Angel: I don't know what's about to happen next.
But I promise, this ain't the end.
* Hallelujah
* Though I'm battered and blue *
* Feel like I'm born to lose
* Though I never been, never been, never *
* Never have I been so low
* Now there's only one way to go *
* Oh, and I never
* Never give up, never give up *
* Never give up
* Never will I give up, no
* Never give up, never give up *
* I'll never
* Never give up, never give up *
* Never will I give up
* No, no
* Never give up
Never thought I'd leave my farm.
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, I was so tired.
Told my wife maybe we should move.
[ Chuckles lightly ]
But...
too hard to start over.
When you make a promise, you got to 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.
[ Laughs ]
That's what my pop used to say.
[ Sighs ]
Wonder if he can hear me now.
Keep him in your heart, bro.
He gonna hear you.

I know.
Look at my baby. Look at my baby.
That's her, yeah.
[ Both laughing ]
[ Smooches ]
Well, good morning.
Good morning. Mwah!
Hello. Say, "Hello!"
Do you know that? Perfect little...
Yes, she is.
Look at how much she's grown.
I know. She's so big now.
Do you want some coffee?
No, I'm good.
Come here, come here.
Yeah.
Well, hello.
[ 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.
Oh, thank you, but I am not the one that I'm worried about.
Ralph Angel's gonna burn himself out
working two jobs like that.
Hopefully soon he'll start getting his 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'd just walk the land.
Feel bad for him he can't do that no more.
**
Miss Trinh.
Hey.
What's goin' on?
[ Both chuckle ]
Mm! How you doin'?
Um, my mom and brother sent this from Dallas for the baby.
It's supposed to be good luck.
[ Chuckles ]
How Mrs. Phan been enjoying retirement?
In name only.
She calls me twice a day to check up on me.
Backseat boss.
I mean, she been there for what, 30 years?
Longer.
She was 10 when her parents bought this place.
Bao tells me you're pretty broken up about the farm.
I'm so sorry.
It would've 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 that I can do to help, just...
let me know.
Hey.
Ready to go?
Hey.
Hey, uh, Ralph.
What's going on? How you doing?
It's Ralph Angel.
It's good to see you, man.
Yeah.
Tell Khan he still owes me a beer.
[ Laughter ]
Tell Mrs. Phan I said thank you, and stop working.
I'll try.
You're a lucky man, Duc.
I know it. I'm the lucky one.
Ralph Angel: Y'all be easy.
Yo.
Hey, where my little princess at?
Violet: Hey, you.
Daddy miss you.
What up, Aunt Vi?
Hey, baby, how was your day?
Got another box from Charley.
Ah. Mm!
This from Mrs. Phan.
This baby only 6 months old and got more gifts
than I have 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?
Hi, Daddy. Ah, what's up, baby?
I'm gonna finish getting ready and then we can go.
This is from Mrs. Phan. Oh.
What's up, my little sugar foot?
You want more?
Milk.
What on earth are you doing?
Milk. Baby sign language.
All the books say that babies learn languages
before they can speak them.
More. Milk.
There she go.
Y'all with this new-age parenting is something else.
At least she can tell me what she want.
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.
More...milk. Milk.
She is gonna love this.
She gonna love it. See?
Vi.
Now, you know we're trying to keep baby's diet plant-based.
When did you hear of a vegan baby, hm?
I mean, it's not likes she's got high sugar.
And it's not really meat.
It's a bone.
Alright. [ Chuckles ]
Alright. I understand.
[ Line 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.
Man: Charley, we're ready for you.
So, I'm about to start a slew of party leadership meetings.
I got to go. Yeah.
I miss you. Miss you, too.
Give 'em hell. Have a good day, bye.
Hey. Hey.
[ Chuckles ]
I had fun last night.
Me, too.
You about to get out of here? Mm-hmm.
Oh, you got somewhere to be?
I do.
* It's whatever you like
So you just wake up looking like this?
Mm-hmm, all the time.
[ Both laugh ]
-Call you. -You better.
You better answer.
* On the back of my motorbike
* Switch lanes twenty-nine, ooh *
[ Cellphone chimes ]
* It's whatever you like, ooh
* On the back of my motorbike
* Write your name in the sky, ooh *
[ Laughs ]
* It's whatever you like
* We can ride, ride, ride
[ Cellphone ringing ]
[ Ringing stops ]
Billie, you know, I-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?
No, uh, just heading over Sandy's.
She needs help fixing a window.
You must've 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?
Still on hold.
White farmers claiming reverse discrimination.
Can you believe that?
Alright.
Smell real nice, Daddy.
Hey, we said no phones.
Oh. I know.
I'm nervous. Mm.
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?
Okay.
Let's be tourists.
We can beignets at Cafe du Monde and oysters at Felix's
and finish the day drinking hurricanes on an airboat.
Ugh, I had hurricanes on a dare once in high school
and I'm never doing it again.
Alright, 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 want to see.
But today...
let's just be lazy.
Mm.
I like lazy.
Oh, good.
**
Aww.
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.
It was so cute.
All the moments I missed with Blue.
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 -- got to work.
I ain't been doing all this for nothin'.
It will.
If Mo Evans approves our application today,
finally be legit.
Southern Louisiana Federation of Co-ops.
[ Chuckles ] Sounds good.
[ Sighs ]
Baby, listen to me.
You did all the heavy lifting.
She's making the trip.
If it was a no, she'd send an e-mail.
She's coming because of you.
But I...
I want you to take care of yourself.
I mean, that's why I started swimming again.
You need something. Maybe, uh...
Weren't you and Hollywood supposed to go fishing?
Man, I hate fishing. And fish.
I be 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. I'm not jealous.
Nobody got nothin' on you, baby.
I promise.
[ Engine starts ]
You still gonna take the long way?
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.
I can't believe Charley had all this hiding in her garage.
Yeah, we need a VCR. [ Laughs ]
How's her campaign going?
She won the primary.
If I know Charley, mm,
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.
Gimme that. Gimme -- Okay!
Give it to me.
Ohh.
You three were crazy sexy cool.
I know, I'm saying -- Did you just -- Did you really?
It -- It sounded weird when it came out.
But you got -- But look, it's true, look.
Especially Left Eye with the overalls.
Oh, especially Left Eye.
That's your favorite one? I mean, in this picture,
Left Eye is everything.
[ Both laugh ]
[ Cellphone chimes ]
It's up!
Top of home page.
Did they include a full list of the massacre victims' names?
Yes, this will finally put an end to Parker's petition.
"Nova Bordelon and Dominic Richard's profiles
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 given the 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.
[ Hollywood baby talks ] [ Violet laughs ]
* You built your house of stone by hand *
* But the wave took it all, washed away in the sand *
How are you?
* I know it's hard to turn the page *
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 kick you out of the kitchen.
**
Joaquin.
This is delightful.
Really?
Hollywood: Yeah, it's really good.
[ Both chuckle ]
[ Exhales slowly ]
I think you might have something here.
You tell your mama thank you,
and tell he we would 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.
**
Mm-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.
Mm-hmm.
-That's for the whole year. -Hmm.
Keke.
[ Both laugh ]
Michael West.
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 Stevens?
Oh, you know his work? I do.
I'm his T-A. 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.
He hates it when his students are late.
Hey, it -- it's good to see you.
You, too.
[ Indistinct conversations ]
You outdid it, bro.
-Um, excuse me. -Yes, ma'am.
I'm interested in a CSA subscription.
Yes, absolutely.
It's farm-fresh produce delivered straight to your door,
locally grown by Black farmers.
We'll do the quick tour and then we'll get you situated, okay?
Ralph Angel: So, Mo'll be here in a minute.
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.
I just want to make sure y'all are familiar with her
when she get here.
-Alright? -Oh, okay.
Yeah. Alright.
[ Laughter ]
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 need a 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.
I-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. Okay.
[ Sighs ]
**
This isn't the end.
We begin again, like you did before.
And they did before us.
[ Vehicle approaches ]
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'. [ Laughter ]
Well, ain't nothing wrong with wanting Mo.
Well, that's what I tell the ladies.
[ Laughter ]
No, seriously, thank you for coming, Mo.
Mm.
You know, I've read all your books and took your classes,
and the seminar about land trusts.
You know, I even sent all the farmers your TED Talk.
Several times.
With commentary. [ Laughter ]
I first heard about your name when I read up
on the Freedom Georgia Initiative.
It's inspiring what they're doing.
They're reclaiming the land.
Black Wall Street in a self-sustaining farm.
It's incredible. Yeah.
I mean, we basically modeled our co-op after yours.
You know, CSA set up, Land Trust next.
You're 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.
Speaking of chances, Mr. Prosper been taking a chance
on this new youth program we been developing.
You want to, um... Yes.
-Yes, beautiful, beautiful. -Let's do it. Alright.
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.
It's looking good.
**
[ Indistinct conversations] Y'all settle down, please.
Look, I know it ain't much, but please.
First we sit through a million meetings.
What for?
Look, once we cover overhead costs,
we'll be right back where we were.
When is that gonna be? We all got bills to pay.
Maybe a few weeks. Maybe a few weeks?
Come on, Ralph!
One, two weeks.
[ All murmuring, shouting ]
I-I said before.
This ain't nothin' 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.
80% 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.
Welcome to the 3%.
**
All revolution is based on land.
Know who said that?
Nah.
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...
it's for them.
And now it's our turn to disrupt the system,
reclaim what we lost.
But the only way we can do it is if we move together.
As a unit.
Man: Makes sense. [ Applause ]
**
Hey, Billie.
Thanks again.
All that legal stuff really gives me a headache.
Oh, it's no problem. You get used to it.
It's like learning another language.
Uh, a few of us are having a bonfire this weekend.
If you're not busy... Um...
...you should come along.
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 --
Benny, 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.
[ Chuckles ] You never liked surprises.
Okay, to be fair, like, surprises haven't exactly
gone over well in my family, so...
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, and how are they?
Your mom's all over the news.
Yeah, I mean, Dad is killing it.
You know, Mom's campaign is on fire.
Yeah, Squad is hot.
Yeah, I mean, well, she got to win first.
She got to 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 L.A., too?
Nah. Nah, I'm here.
Oh, so you're finally free?
Your parents miles away.
Parents miles away. No curfew.
[ Laughs ]
Guess so. Nice.
Walk the river with me.
[ Sighs ]
Keke. Micah.
I want to, I want to, I just, um...
I got this family christening to be to in a couple hours.
I just can't show up faded.
Okay, so much for being in the moment.
But I'll see you in class.
Cool?
**
Wait!
Yo.
Just gonna leave me like this?
Yeah, you... catch up.
[ Both laugh ]
Thanks again, Prosper.
Want you to know I'm happy to help whenever you need me.
Um...
You know, I-I want you to know that...
sometimes I'd like to get out.
I mean...
with you, outside.
A-Alone.
Are you asking me out?
It's, uh --
It's been a long time since I felt like this.
Miss 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 laugh ]
Deborah: Nova.
Hey, listen, there's an offer on the table
for "Blessing and Blood."
They want to turn your book into a movie.
The Times' profiles have garnered a lot of attention.
The producer 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 --
to -- to sit with this.
Tell me you're not thinking of saying no.
Nova, something like this doesn't come along every day.
Think about it.
But call me back quick, okay?
Thanks.
Yee!
[ Snapping fingers ]
Oh, hey, hey.
A Hollywood producer wants to turn my book into a movie!
Ahh!
And -- And apparently, the -- the offer is high six figures.
Like, what does that even mean?
I mean, half a million? More?
And -- And they want to meet me.
This is huge!
We got to celebrate.
Uh...
What's wrong? I can't do this.
I need to think.
Um, can I?
The book almost broke my family, opened up old wounds.
Everyone's so vulnerable right now.
**
Ralph Angel: See your uncle?
Aww, hey, baby girl. He clean.
You know that my great-grandmother May made this?
Sewed this for her daughter.
Got a long line of powerful women inside of you.
Their blood is coursing through your veins.
When you feel that the world is stacked against you,
their voices are gonna guide you in.
That's right, little girl.
Gorgeous.
The dress and the words. Mm-hmm.
Micah: Hey, Mom, can you hear me?
Everybody say hi.
Hey, everybody.
I was literally about to call you.
-We miss you so much. -Miss you, too.
-Talk to your baby sister. -Hi, Tru.
We love you all so much and we're so grateful
that you're here with us today.
Say hi! Hi.
-That's your big bro. -She looks so pretty.
Priest: Thank you all for coming.
Oh!
* Chilled by the cool breeze
What name do you name your child?
Tru. Tru Bordelon.
After her grandmother.
She'll certainly have an angel watching over her.
That's right.
There you go.
Okay, little Tru.
Tru, I baptize you in the name of the Father...
[ Tru cries ] It's okay, baby.
...in the name of the Son...
and in the name of the Holy Spirit.
-Amen. -Amen.
You did it, you did it, you did it!
You did it, Tru, you did it!
[ Door opens ]
[ Door closes ]
Hey. Was looking for you.
You and that phone.
What's up, millennial?
[ Chuckles ] I think I'm gen Z.
Why you hiding over here?
Ah...
Today was just a weird day.
You know, um, my ex, Keke? Mm.
I ran into her at the center. 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 kind of, like, this vibe and --
I don't know, I went to class, and my teacher
started showing us all these, like, weird little pictures --
Micah.
Are you high?
Little bit.
Oh -- I had to.
Keke was giving me all this shit, like,
"Oh, Micah, you never do anything spontaneous."
And you fell for that?
[ Laughs ]
Oh, gosh, is it obvious?
Yeah. Mm-hmm.
Oh, man.
[ Laughing ] It's okay.
All jokes aside, that thing for Tru...
Mm.
...that was beautiful.
When I was a baby, y'all ever,
I don't know, do something like that for me?
Your parents aren't the blessing type.
But you...
were blessed from the minute you were born.
Come here. [ Laughs ] I love you.
I love you, too.
Come and join us, huh?
Alright. When you're ready.
Yeah.
Get it together. Get it together.
Get all the way together. All the way.
I'mma sit right here and figure my stuff out.
[ Nova laughing ] What?
Girl, Micah is baked.
[ Both laugh ]
Can you imagine being 21 again?
Nah, that would be terrible.
Nova. Hmm?
A real movie? [ Squeals ]
Buh-buh-buh-buh!
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.
It's just so exciting.
Can I be in the movie? But --
No, I-I know that I'm not in the book,
and I don't care about that.
Just put me in the movie.
Nova, Nova, you remember when we used to steal
Daddy's truck and we would hang in the woods?
They could put that in the movie.
Shh!
What? [ Nova chuckles ]
What are y'all gossiping about?
Dominic? I want to hear.
Spill it. It's been six months.
That's almost a lifetime in Nova years.
Hey, that's not fair. I'm not that bad.
I was with Calvin for almost five years.
I know, four of those he was still married.
Nothing to tell. [ Chuckles nervously ]
Dominic is great.
Well, we're all glad. We like him.
And we were worried. We didn't want to 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 got to find someone when you're ready
to receive what they're giving.
Ah, that sounds like some "Super Soul Sunday" advice.
I read a lot of 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.
I just want you to be happy, that's all.
And it seems like Dominic makes you happy.
And if nice is enough for you, then God bless.
Hollywood: Vi! Alright.
Go on.
[ Laughter ]
So you're gonna put me in the movie, right?
One more family tradition.
This book is the first piece of property our family owned.
Been passed down through generations.
They kept track of the land in the back.
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 being said, I'm proud...
**
...to add Miss Tru -- no "E"...
[ Laughter ]
...Bordelon.

After everything we've been through...
...it's easy just to look around
and see the cup half empty, play victim.
When I look around, that's not what I see.
I see everything I need...
**
...right here in front of me.
That goes for you, too, Blue and Charley.
I love y'all with all my heart.
Charley: We love you, too.
Love you, Mom. I love you, Pops.
Wish I was there with you.
Love you, love you.
I love you, too.

That's all she wrote. [ Clears throat ]
[ Vehicle approaches ]
-Mm. -Who is that?
Mnh-mnh, get back in the car and turn around.
You are not welcome here, Sam.
Ralph Angel: What you doing here, Landry?
Come on, now. Hear me out, please.
We're family.
-Family? -We're not family.
I hope I'm not interrupting anything important.
What do you want, Sam? Spit it out.
I came here to congratulate Miss Nova
on an excellent article.
Tracing the names of all these victims,
that was a hell of a lot of hard work.
And your call to action, seeking out living descendents
to ensure the land remains untouched,
was genius.
But because of all that hard work, we found out
that our family is intertwined with yours once again...
in the grave.
What are you talking about?
There are no Landrys, no Boudreauxs in that grave.
Are you serious, Sam?
She wouldn't want this.
Aunt Vi?
What's going on?
Arceneux.
Those are Betty's people, her maiden name.
Parker's mother.
Parker's a living descendant 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'll 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.

You're sure you want to go down this path?
* Let you down * Whatever you do
You know where it leads.
You didn't leave us any choice, Vi.
* Let you down
* Whatever you do
* I won't
* When you're goin' through
[ Car door closes, engine starts ]
* Let you down
* Know I'm here for you
* Ooh
