1
00:00:05,426 --> 00:00:07,498
Greetings, four-wheeled friends.
2
00:00:08,626 --> 00:00:10,854
Dave, do you ever just say "hi"?
3
00:00:10,879 --> 00:00:12,906
Oh. Nay.
4
00:00:13,931 --> 00:00:16,399
Look at you guys, out for a bike ride.
5
00:00:16,424 --> 00:00:19,085
Yeah. Back in Kalamazoo, we
used to take family rides
6
00:00:19,110 --> 00:00:20,269
all the time.
7
00:00:20,294 --> 00:00:22,245
Not on Old Duck Lane, of course,
8
00:00:22,270 --> 00:00:23,893
with all the traffic.
9
00:00:24,805 --> 00:00:28,044
Well, around here, if you
see a grown man on a bike,
10
00:00:28,086 --> 00:00:30,565
his sidepiece slashed his tires.
11
00:00:31,249 --> 00:00:33,095
What's a sidepiece?
12
00:00:33,741 --> 00:00:35,491
Oh, well, it's when a guy...
13
00:00:35,516 --> 00:00:36,788
Dave!
14
00:00:37,591 --> 00:00:40,141
Gets an extra piece of chicken.
15
00:00:41,060 --> 00:00:44,377
Cool! Then next time, I'm
gonna get a sidepiece.
16
00:00:47,323 --> 00:00:50,166
Well, I don't know about you, but
I sure worked up an appetite
17
00:00:50,191 --> 00:00:51,983
for our double date tonight.
18
00:00:52,008 --> 00:00:53,164
Double date?
19
00:00:53,342 --> 00:00:56,646
Who's the unlucky couple?
20
00:00:57,092 --> 00:00:58,445
We are.
21
00:00:59,092 --> 00:01:01,245
What? Tina, I thought you and I
22
00:01:01,270 --> 00:01:02,946
were going to The Lobster Factory.
23
00:01:02,971 --> 00:01:05,974
Uh, we are, but the Johnsons
are coming with us,
24
00:01:05,999 --> 00:01:08,443
and we're not going to
The Lobster Factory.
25
00:01:08,865 --> 00:01:10,737
We're going to this hip new place
26
00:01:10,762 --> 00:01:12,119
called Sprout and Jar.
27
00:01:12,144 --> 00:01:13,687
I've been dying to try it.
28
00:01:13,712 --> 00:01:15,733
Everything's served in mason jars.
29
00:01:15,758 --> 00:01:18,101
Except for the drinks,
which come to the table
30
00:01:18,126 --> 00:01:19,682
in a communal trough.
31
00:01:21,052 --> 00:01:22,727
Come on, Tina.
32
00:01:22,851 --> 00:01:24,665
Saturday is one of my cheat days.
33
00:01:24,939 --> 00:01:27,055
I just want to go to a classy place,
34
00:01:27,166 --> 00:01:29,056
where, you know, I can put on a bib
35
00:01:29,081 --> 00:01:31,055
and suck butter off my fingers.
36
00:01:31,969 --> 00:01:33,658
I know, baby.
37
00:01:33,683 --> 00:01:34,992
That's why we didn't ask you.
38
00:01:35,017 --> 00:01:36,147
Mwah!
39
00:01:36,675 --> 00:01:38,147
Calvin, don't worry,
40
00:01:38,172 --> 00:01:40,207
Sprout and Jar has a lobster dish.
41
00:01:40,232 --> 00:01:41,733
Oh. Okay.
42
00:01:41,758 --> 00:01:44,649
It's an aerated foam
served in a balloon.
43
00:01:46,094 --> 00:01:47,367
Sounds good, doesn't it?
44
00:01:47,485 --> 00:01:48,839
To use your words:
45
00:01:48,864 --> 00:01:50,066
Nay.
46
00:01:55,492 --> 00:01:59,351
- Synced and corrected by martythecrazy -
- www.addic7ed.com -
47
00:01:59,571 --> 00:02:01,047
Ooh...
48
00:02:01,072 --> 00:02:03,897
- Wow, this place is really nice.
- I know.
49
00:02:03,922 --> 00:02:06,269
Everything they serve
here is farm-to-table.
50
00:02:06,294 --> 00:02:09,358
Ooh. Well, as long as they
kill it somewhere in between,
51
00:02:09,383 --> 00:02:10,775
I'm good.
52
00:02:13,138 --> 00:02:14,505
Ooh, Calvin, check this out.
53
00:02:14,595 --> 00:02:16,765
The menus are printed on rice paper.
54
00:02:16,790 --> 00:02:17,884
When you're done ordering,
55
00:02:17,909 --> 00:02:19,873
you can eat them as an appetizer.
56
00:02:20,124 --> 00:02:21,762
I don't know.
57
00:02:21,787 --> 00:02:24,021
I-I don't want to fill up on menu.
58
00:02:25,082 --> 00:02:26,667
Hey, babe...
59
00:02:26,768 --> 00:02:29,140
didn't this used to be
Alfreeda's check-cashing place?
60
00:02:29,165 --> 00:02:30,751
Yeah, until the cops found out
61
00:02:30,776 --> 00:02:33,723
it was also Alfreeda's
drug-dealing place.
62
00:02:34,338 --> 00:02:36,165
You see? Just another example
63
00:02:36,190 --> 00:02:40,165
of gentrification taking over a
fine, locally owned business.
64
00:02:42,031 --> 00:02:43,240
Greetings.
65
00:02:43,265 --> 00:02:46,333
Thank you for the
opportunity to nourish you.
66
00:02:47,099 --> 00:02:50,295
Doesn't anybody just say "hi" anymore?
67
00:02:51,518 --> 00:02:53,419
We have a reservation under Johnson.
68
00:02:53,444 --> 00:02:56,255
Oh. We prefer not to use
the term "reservation"
69
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,175
out of respect to Native Americans.
70
00:02:59,380 --> 00:03:01,749
Then how do we do this?
71
00:03:01,948 --> 00:03:04,908
We also prefer you don't
use the world "how."
72
00:03:07,868 --> 00:03:09,825
I'm sorry, we're running a bit behind.
73
00:03:09,850 --> 00:03:11,686
It's gonna be about an hour and a half.
74
00:03:11,975 --> 00:03:13,510
An hour and a half?
75
00:03:13,721 --> 00:03:17,292
How long does it take to shove
a lobster in a balloon?
76
00:03:18,458 --> 00:03:21,322
You know, that-that is a long wait.
77
00:03:21,347 --> 00:03:23,161
Maybe we should go someplace else.
78
00:03:23,186 --> 00:03:25,380
Well, I did just read about
a new soul food restaurant
79
00:03:25,405 --> 00:03:26,411
around the corner.
80
00:03:26,436 --> 00:03:27,799
Ooh, that sounds good.
81
00:03:27,824 --> 00:03:29,178
Gemma, are you cool with that?
82
00:03:29,203 --> 00:03:30,966
I mean, sure, it just took me
83
00:03:30,991 --> 00:03:33,002
six weeks to get the reserva...
84
00:03:33,027 --> 00:03:35,029
table holding.
85
00:03:36,266 --> 00:03:38,084
Calvin, what do you say?
86
00:03:38,213 --> 00:03:42,616
Oh. So I guess you think all
black people want soul food.
87
00:03:43,272 --> 00:03:44,340
N...
88
00:03:44,365 --> 00:03:45,584
N-No. I'm sorry, I didn't...
89
00:03:45,609 --> 00:03:48,275
I'm just kidding with you, man.
Hell yeah, let's go.
90
00:03:49,538 --> 00:03:51,723
You know what? I'm
just gonna grab a menu
91
00:03:51,748 --> 00:03:53,294
for a little snack on the way.
92
00:03:56,952 --> 00:03:58,635
Hey, hey, party people!
93
00:03:58,660 --> 00:04:00,334
- Yo, what's up, man?
- Hey.
94
00:04:00,359 --> 00:04:02,841
So, what's this school project
you need help on, Grover?
95
00:04:02,866 --> 00:04:04,263
Is it a report on a foreign country?
96
00:04:04,288 --> 00:04:06,174
Because if it's Madagascar,
97
00:04:06,199 --> 00:04:08,650
the capital is Antananarivo.
98
00:04:09,391 --> 00:04:12,170
Actually, I have to interview
people in my neighborhood,
99
00:04:12,195 --> 00:04:13,722
so I thought I'd do a podcast.
100
00:04:13,747 --> 00:04:15,578
Oh, your very own podcast.
101
00:04:15,603 --> 00:04:17,267
That's pretty cool, man.
102
00:04:17,292 --> 00:04:18,961
Yeah, you know, it's not as cool
103
00:04:18,986 --> 00:04:21,722
as having a pen pal in
Antananarivo, but...
104
00:04:21,747 --> 00:04:23,322
Sit down.
105
00:04:23,347 --> 00:04:25,735
The podcast is called
Gabbin' with Grover.
106
00:04:25,886 --> 00:04:27,611
My dad helped me with the theme song.
107
00:04:27,636 --> 00:04:29,405
Okay, well, let's do it, then.
108
00:04:29,430 --> 00:04:32,347
♪ Gabbin' with Grover,
Gabbin' with Grover ♪
109
00:04:32,372 --> 00:04:34,387

112
00:04:42,713 --> 00:04:45,474
- It's catchy, it's catchy.
- It's nice, nice. Nice.
113
00:04:45,499 --> 00:04:47,435
There's three more verses.
Want to hear 'em?
114
00:04:47,460 --> 00:04:49,131
- Hell no.
- Hell no.
115
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:52,905
Okay, then let's start.
116
00:04:53,684 --> 00:04:56,458
Hey, Mrs. Sweeney and
the rest of room 14.
117
00:04:56,483 --> 00:04:58,175
Except Spencer.
118
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,397
I heard about your birthday party.
119
00:05:02,010 --> 00:05:04,461
So, I'd like to welcome
my first guests,
120
00:05:04,486 --> 00:05:05,988
Malcolm and Marty Butler.
121
00:05:06,021 --> 00:05:07,866
Hey, hey! What's up, Mrs. Sweeney?
122
00:05:07,891 --> 00:05:10,028
Uh, hello, everyone, except Spencer.
123
00:05:10,053 --> 00:05:11,674
Not cool, bro.
124
00:05:12,818 --> 00:05:15,082
Okay, let's start with you, Marty.
125
00:05:15,107 --> 00:05:16,263
All right, you got it.
126
00:05:16,288 --> 00:05:17,804
What's on your mind, little man?
127
00:05:17,935 --> 00:05:20,707
You have a really cool
job, you're super smart,
128
00:05:20,732 --> 00:05:21,912
and you dress nice.
129
00:05:21,937 --> 00:05:23,939
Thank you.
130
00:05:23,964 --> 00:05:25,942
So why don't you have a girlfriend?
131
00:05:27,256 --> 00:05:29,054
Wha... What?
132
00:05:29,552 --> 00:05:30,754
You know...
133
00:05:30,779 --> 00:05:32,459
why don't girls like you?
134
00:05:38,995 --> 00:05:40,989
Well, well, uh, w-well...
135
00:05:41,014 --> 00:05:42,916
Uh, uh, uh, answer the question, man.
136
00:05:42,941 --> 00:05:45,404
Room 14 wants to know.
137
00:05:49,261 --> 00:05:51,722
Now, this is what I'm talkin' about.
138
00:05:51,940 --> 00:05:54,587
Got pictures of our people on the wall,
139
00:05:54,612 --> 00:05:57,245
and it smells just like
my grandmama's kitchen.
140
00:05:57,270 --> 00:05:58,945
And did you hear what the waitress said
141
00:05:58,970 --> 00:06:00,061
when we walked in?
142
00:06:00,086 --> 00:06:01,439
She said, "Hi."
143
00:06:03,056 --> 00:06:05,505
Which is more than what
Calvin's bitter old grandma
144
00:06:05,530 --> 00:06:06,860
ever said to me.
145
00:06:07,339 --> 00:06:09,253
Lord rest her soul.
146
00:06:10,791 --> 00:06:12,164
Let's see.
147
00:06:12,189 --> 00:06:14,723
Cracklin' Bread. Hoppin' John.
148
00:06:14,748 --> 00:06:16,114
Ooh, hush puppies.
149
00:06:16,139 --> 00:06:18,435
I'm gonna get those.
They sound adorable.
150
00:06:19,802 --> 00:06:21,934
Mr. and Mrs. Butler!
How you folks doing?
151
00:06:21,959 --> 00:06:23,961
- Hey.
- Hey, Daryl.
152
00:06:23,986 --> 00:06:26,057
I see you finally grew into that head.
153
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,483
How's your mama and them?
154
00:06:29,785 --> 00:06:31,088
Who's "Andem"?
155
00:06:31,113 --> 00:06:34,288
Oh. That's black for "er'body."
156
00:06:35,495 --> 00:06:37,881
Which is black for "everybody."
157
00:06:39,644 --> 00:06:41,777
So, does anyone have any
questions about the menu?
158
00:06:41,802 --> 00:06:43,079
I do.
159
00:06:43,397 --> 00:06:46,149
What exactly are chitterlings?
160
00:06:49,358 --> 00:06:51,413
Dave, Dave, Dave, we say
161
00:06:51,438 --> 00:06:52,612
"chitlins."
162
00:06:52,637 --> 00:06:54,058
It's boiled pig intestines.
163
00:06:54,083 --> 00:06:55,797
It's a black delicacy.
164
00:06:55,828 --> 00:06:59,268
Oh. I have trouble digesting
things that, you know...
165
00:06:59,884 --> 00:07:01,522
digest things.
166
00:07:02,354 --> 00:07:05,859
We just had vegan meat loaf
at your house last week.
167
00:07:05,884 --> 00:07:07,628
Consider this payback.
168
00:07:10,996 --> 00:07:12,928
And I had to sit...
169
00:07:13,582 --> 00:07:15,766
in that lost-and-found for over an hour
170
00:07:15,791 --> 00:07:17,745
before my mama came and got me.
171
00:07:20,078 --> 00:07:23,226
Is it any surprise that I
have abandonment issues?!
172
00:07:25,070 --> 00:07:27,439
Can we please be done
with the interview?
173
00:07:27,697 --> 00:07:30,917
I stopped asking you questions,
like, ten minutes ago.
174
00:07:34,636 --> 00:07:36,700
So, let's move on to Malcolm.
175
00:07:36,725 --> 00:07:38,119
Oh, thank God.
176
00:07:40,112 --> 00:07:42,724
All right, bring on
the questions, G-man.
177
00:07:42,749 --> 00:07:45,696
Unlike my brother, I've
had a ton of girlfriends,
178
00:07:45,721 --> 00:07:48,665
I'm emotionally stable, and
I've never lost my swimsuit
179
00:07:48,690 --> 00:07:49,730
on a waterslide.
180
00:07:49,755 --> 00:07:52,075
Yeah, I didn't lose it.
You pulled it down.
181
00:07:53,569 --> 00:07:55,352
Okay, Malcolm. You wanted to be
182
00:07:55,377 --> 00:07:58,463
a professional baseball player
before you got hurt, right?
183
00:07:58,657 --> 00:08:01,118
Uh, yeah, that's right.
184
00:08:01,143 --> 00:08:02,974
Are you that good at anything else?
185
00:08:03,007 --> 00:08:05,201
And if not, does that make you sad?
186
00:08:11,809 --> 00:08:13,450
Um...
187
00:08:13,475 --> 00:08:15,511
well, that's a complicated question.
188
00:08:15,622 --> 00:08:17,431
It's okay. Take your time.
189
00:08:20,381 --> 00:08:22,978
Looks like he yanked
your swimsuit down.
190
00:08:25,951 --> 00:08:28,424
Mm. Excuse me.
191
00:08:28,647 --> 00:08:31,045
I am smackin' so loud, I'm embarrassed.
192
00:08:32,446 --> 00:08:34,087
I'm sorry, Grandmama,
193
00:08:34,112 --> 00:08:37,172
but somebody's giving your
food a run for its money.
194
00:08:39,193 --> 00:08:41,940
I think you're looking
in the wrong direction.
195
00:08:43,971 --> 00:08:45,468
Sweetie, are you okay?
196
00:08:45,493 --> 00:08:47,991
- You're looking a little sweaty.
- Oh...
197
00:08:48,016 --> 00:08:49,971
it's the spice.
198
00:08:51,260 --> 00:08:54,391
Oh, my mouth has been numb
since that first hush puppy.
199
00:08:54,910 --> 00:08:58,606
Dave, what your white
body is reacting to
200
00:08:59,049 --> 00:09:01,544
is a thing we like to call flavor.
201
00:09:02,084 --> 00:09:03,185
This is the food
202
00:09:03,210 --> 00:09:04,631
of our people...
203
00:09:04,656 --> 00:09:06,902
Our blood, sweat and tears,
204
00:09:07,014 --> 00:09:10,275
400 years of resilience in every dish.
205
00:09:10,300 --> 00:09:13,311
Oh, Lord, he's going
into preacher mode.
206
00:09:13,614 --> 00:09:15,551
It's pride on a plate.
207
00:09:15,733 --> 00:09:17,408
Soul in a bowl.
208
00:09:18,061 --> 00:09:20,021
Hot damn in the hot sauce!
209
00:09:21,744 --> 00:09:24,214
- Hallelujah.
- Yeah, hallelujah.
210
00:09:24,561 --> 00:09:26,299
How's everyone doing here?
211
00:09:26,324 --> 00:09:28,410
I could use another glass of ice water.
212
00:09:30,210 --> 00:09:31,879
Everything was amazing, Daryl.
213
00:09:31,904 --> 00:09:34,451
I mean, this food really
takes me back, man.
214
00:09:34,476 --> 00:09:36,383
Give my compliments to the chef.
215
00:09:36,408 --> 00:09:37,757
Why don't you tell him yourself?
216
00:09:37,782 --> 00:09:38,924
Chef Mitchell!
217
00:09:38,949 --> 00:09:40,469
Someone wants to meet you.
218
00:09:49,841 --> 00:09:51,465
Thanks for coming to my restaurant.
219
00:09:51,490 --> 00:09:52,789
How are we enjoying everything?
220
00:09:52,814 --> 00:09:54,072
Ah.
221
00:09:54,469 --> 00:09:57,135
I'm guessing he looks
nothing like your grandma.
222
00:10:03,560 --> 00:10:05,296
Whenever you're ready.
223
00:10:05,665 --> 00:10:09,389
Wow. These desserts are even
better than the main course.
224
00:10:09,414 --> 00:10:11,383
Yeah, the yellow cake is great.
225
00:10:11,408 --> 00:10:13,175
Again...
226
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,108
a little spicy, but...
227
00:10:17,002 --> 00:10:18,458
but great.
228
00:10:18,483 --> 00:10:21,004
Well, baby, you haven't
touched your dessert.
229
00:10:21,219 --> 00:10:22,965
You know what? You're right.
230
00:10:23,125 --> 00:10:25,165
There. I touched it.
231
00:10:26,401 --> 00:10:27,627
Oh, come on, Calvin.
232
00:10:27,660 --> 00:10:28,861
You were raving about the food
233
00:10:28,886 --> 00:10:30,971
before you found out
the chef was white.
234
00:10:31,215 --> 00:10:34,218
That's before he tricked me
into thinking it was delicious.
235
00:10:35,183 --> 00:10:38,639
Tina, this is a classic
example of appropriation:
236
00:10:38,883 --> 00:10:41,803
a white chef stealing black cuisine.
237
00:10:42,196 --> 00:10:45,008
Stealing? I wouldn't call it stealing.
238
00:10:45,033 --> 00:10:47,940
Uh, someone who's not of my culture
239
00:10:47,965 --> 00:10:49,714
cooking my culture's food?
240
00:10:49,764 --> 00:10:52,709
You don't see me making avocado toast.
241
00:10:54,531 --> 00:10:56,901
But isn't all cooking
kind of appropriation?
242
00:10:56,926 --> 00:10:59,281
I mean, I'm not Italian, but I
make spaghetti all the time.
243
00:10:59,306 --> 00:11:00,683
And I'm not Mexican, but...
244
00:11:00,708 --> 00:11:02,897
Please don't bring Taco
Tuesday into this.
245
00:11:04,224 --> 00:11:06,359
Oh, come on, Calvin. We
were having a good time.
246
00:11:06,384 --> 00:11:09,422
No, no. I-I am sick and tired
247
00:11:09,447 --> 00:11:11,571
of black culture being taken from us.
248
00:11:11,596 --> 00:11:13,047
I mean, our food,
249
00:11:13,072 --> 00:11:15,075
our music, our clothes.
250
00:11:15,225 --> 00:11:17,446
White people even tried
to take Tiger Woods
251
00:11:17,471 --> 00:11:19,374
and then tried to give him back!
252
00:11:22,842 --> 00:11:25,158
Calvin, I don't think the
chef is taking your food.
253
00:11:25,183 --> 00:11:26,700
I think he's celebrating it.
254
00:11:26,725 --> 00:11:29,687
Like how I play the
maracas on Taco Tuesday.
255
00:11:30,714 --> 00:11:33,055
Look, I don't care what you call it.
256
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,714
I am done eating this chef's food.
257
00:11:35,999 --> 00:11:38,447
It's a good thing I kept a
few bites of this menu.
258
00:11:50,436 --> 00:11:53,046
♪ Gabbin' with Grover,
Gabbin' with Grover ♪
259
00:11:53,071 --> 00:11:55,832
♪ Gabbin' our cares away. ♪
260
00:11:56,945 --> 00:11:59,699
Dave, if you're writing
me another love song,
261
00:11:59,724 --> 00:12:00,932
just know
262
00:12:00,957 --> 00:12:03,321
it's gonna be tough to top last week's.
263
00:12:04,821 --> 00:12:06,750
No. I've given up on that.
264
00:12:06,783 --> 00:12:07,980
Nothing rhymes with Gemma.
265
00:12:08,005 --> 00:12:09,382
It's a real problem.
266
00:12:10,042 --> 00:12:11,522
Some might call it a...
267
00:12:11,547 --> 00:12:13,003
dilemma.
268
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:15,838
I mean, I guess.
269
00:12:17,550 --> 00:12:21,521
No, I'm-I'm rerecording the
theme song to Grover's podcast.
270
00:12:21,554 --> 00:12:22,905
- Why?
- Well,
271
00:12:22,930 --> 00:12:26,304
I'm afraid that my rap version
is appropriating black culture.
272
00:12:26,343 --> 00:12:27,455
Which is a shame,
273
00:12:27,481 --> 00:12:29,543
because it was straight fire.
274
00:12:31,073 --> 00:12:32,876
I think you may be
overreacting a little.
275
00:12:32,901 --> 00:12:35,730
Well, maybe, but, you know,
I don't think it's up to us
276
00:12:35,755 --> 00:12:37,888
to decide what's offensive
and what's not.
277
00:12:37,913 --> 00:12:39,335
So what are you gonna do,
278
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,390
just stop using things that were
invented by other cultures?
279
00:12:42,415 --> 00:12:45,067
'Cause I don't see you
giving up your nunchucks.
280
00:12:45,926 --> 00:12:48,245
I'm gonna make an exception for those.
281
00:12:48,456 --> 00:12:50,425
It's a matter of home security.
282
00:12:51,780 --> 00:12:54,165
I just think maybe Calvin has a point.
283
00:12:54,392 --> 00:12:56,198
Then why didn't it bother Tina?
284
00:12:56,223 --> 00:12:58,392
Well, maybe it did and she
just didn't say anything.
285
00:12:58,417 --> 00:13:01,433
Really, Dave? I once saw
her tell a librarian,
286
00:13:01,469 --> 00:13:02,920
"No, you keep it down."
287
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:05,015
Well,
288
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:06,550
in the librarian's defense,
289
00:13:06,575 --> 00:13:08,897
that book was eight years overdue.
290
00:13:09,328 --> 00:13:12,084
Dave, sharing different
cultures is a good thing.
291
00:13:12,109 --> 00:13:14,592
If we all just stuck to our own
little corners of the world,
292
00:13:14,617 --> 00:13:16,818
there'd be no tolerance,
no understanding,
293
00:13:16,843 --> 00:13:18,511
no progress.
294
00:13:18,895 --> 00:13:20,101
Okay.
295
00:13:20,126 --> 00:13:21,651
I see your point.
296
00:13:21,837 --> 00:13:24,053
Maybe I should just keep rapping.
297
00:13:25,405 --> 00:13:27,591
How 'bout we ask Tina about that?
298
00:13:32,596 --> 00:13:34,790
Are you watching Do the Right Thing?
299
00:13:35,598 --> 00:13:37,570
I sure am.
300
00:13:37,595 --> 00:13:39,851
Black actors with a black director
301
00:13:39,876 --> 00:13:41,684
who made his first movie on credit.
302
00:13:41,709 --> 00:13:43,486
Now, that's black.
303
00:13:43,823 --> 00:13:45,006
Oh, so I see.
304
00:13:45,031 --> 00:13:47,934
You're still worked up about
that chef being white.
305
00:13:48,153 --> 00:13:49,713
You're damn right I am.
306
00:13:49,738 --> 00:13:51,949
Why do you think I'm
eating potato chips...
307
00:13:51,974 --> 00:13:53,520
Invented by a black man...
308
00:13:53,545 --> 00:13:55,229
Dipping it in peanut butter...
309
00:13:55,254 --> 00:13:57,521
Also made by a black man?
310
00:13:58,045 --> 00:14:01,108
Who knew legacy could be so delicious?
311
00:14:02,042 --> 00:14:03,453
Oh, you don't have to tell me.
312
00:14:03,478 --> 00:14:05,976
I used to eat that when I
was pregnant with Marty.
313
00:14:06,001 --> 00:14:08,222
Also made by a black man.
314
00:14:09,073 --> 00:14:10,348
Look, Calvin,
315
00:14:10,373 --> 00:14:11,735
you got to let this go.
316
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,097
No. I can't.
317
00:14:13,122 --> 00:14:14,417
I-I've been thinking about this.
318
00:14:14,442 --> 00:14:16,023
And from now on,
319
00:14:16,048 --> 00:14:18,351
if it's not black-owned
or black-invented,
320
00:14:18,376 --> 00:14:20,061
we blackballing it.
321
00:14:20,466 --> 00:14:22,698
Calvin, baby, I respect
what you're trying to do,
322
00:14:22,723 --> 00:14:24,866
- but you got to bemore realistic.
- No.
323
00:14:24,891 --> 00:14:27,465
No, what I got to do is
remind this community
324
00:14:27,490 --> 00:14:30,847
is that what we need to be doing
is investing in ourselves.
325
00:14:30,872 --> 00:14:32,653
All right. I'm all for that.
326
00:14:32,678 --> 00:14:35,346
But you lay one hand on
my Louis Vuitton bag,
327
00:14:35,371 --> 00:14:37,109
you coming back with a nub.
328
00:14:38,404 --> 00:14:39,931
I'm serious, Tina.
329
00:14:39,956 --> 00:14:41,991
I've been up all night
thinking about this,
330
00:14:42,016 --> 00:14:43,560
and I'm not taking this laying down.
331
00:14:43,585 --> 00:14:45,228
All right. Fine. What you gonna do?
332
00:14:45,253 --> 00:14:46,582
I'm gonna take a stand.
333
00:14:46,607 --> 00:14:47,767
All right.
334
00:14:47,792 --> 00:14:49,511
Right after I take a nap.
335
00:14:50,593 --> 00:14:52,718
That peanut butter giving me the itis.
336
00:14:56,011 --> 00:14:57,248
Hey, man.
337
00:14:57,273 --> 00:14:59,685
I got your text. You don't
want to go to the bar tonight?
338
00:14:59,710 --> 00:15:01,257
Ah, what's the point, man?
339
00:15:01,282 --> 00:15:02,742
After gabbing with Grover,
340
00:15:02,767 --> 00:15:05,710
I can't stop thinking about
how depressing my life is.
341
00:15:06,568 --> 00:15:08,628
I'm starting to get why
Spencer didn't invite
342
00:15:08,653 --> 00:15:10,594
his little ass to his party.
343
00:15:11,592 --> 00:15:14,255
Yeah, man, that interview
really shook my confidence.
344
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,517
I haven't felt this naked
and exposed since...
345
00:15:16,755 --> 00:15:18,676
since the waterslide.
346
00:15:19,186 --> 00:15:22,255
Hey, man, well, at least you
have a job that you love.
347
00:15:22,390 --> 00:15:24,425
Yeah, but I can't go
on dates with my job.
348
00:15:24,450 --> 00:15:28,294
My job can't give me a hug
after a long day at work.
349
00:15:28,641 --> 00:15:31,447
My job c... Oh, no. Here
come the waterworks.
350
00:15:31,472 --> 00:15:33,203
Hey. Whoa, whoa, dude, dude.
351
00:15:33,228 --> 00:15:34,589
Marty, you don't see me crying,
352
00:15:34,614 --> 00:15:36,274
and I'm in a worse spot than you are.
353
00:15:36,299 --> 00:15:38,884
I was on track to be a pro
baseball player, man.
354
00:15:38,909 --> 00:15:40,680
Now I'm just a security guard.
355
00:15:40,792 --> 00:15:43,023
Yeah, but think about it like this:
356
00:15:43,048 --> 00:15:45,972
most baseball players' careers
are over by the time they're 30.
357
00:15:45,997 --> 00:15:48,550
You could be a security guard
for the rest of your life, man.
358
00:15:51,404 --> 00:15:53,540
You are lucky I'm too
depressed to punch you.
359
00:15:53,565 --> 00:15:55,187
Look, look.
360
00:15:55,444 --> 00:15:57,280
Malcolm, I know it's
not your dream job,
361
00:15:57,305 --> 00:15:59,150
but that doesn't mean
you won't find it.
362
00:15:59,175 --> 00:16:01,077
It's just... it's just a matter of time
363
00:16:01,111 --> 00:16:02,646
before things turn around.
364
00:16:02,679 --> 00:16:04,281
Yeah, I guess you're right, man.
365
00:16:04,314 --> 00:16:06,550
And don't worry. You're
gonna find somebody.
366
00:16:06,583 --> 00:16:09,053
The world is full of girls, man.
367
00:16:09,086 --> 00:16:10,707
One of 'em's got to like you.
368
00:16:12,718 --> 00:16:13,995
You think she's cute?
369
00:16:14,020 --> 00:16:15,167
Oh, yeah.
370
00:16:15,192 --> 00:16:16,595
You know, in a nerdy,
371
00:16:16,620 --> 00:16:18,490
comic book-loving, - Ooh.
372
00:16:18,515 --> 00:16:21,165
Headgear-wearing type of way.
373
00:16:21,782 --> 00:16:23,417
Yeah, she sounds hot.
374
00:16:25,878 --> 00:16:27,330
You know what, man?
375
00:16:27,355 --> 00:16:28,642
We should go to that bar.
376
00:16:28,667 --> 00:16:30,546
Yeah. Maybe my dream girl is there.
377
00:16:30,571 --> 00:16:33,548
Actually, my gut's telling
me she don't get out much.
378
00:16:37,442 --> 00:16:38,948
Hey. Lewis.
379
00:16:38,973 --> 00:16:40,713
I heard you're about
to be a grandfather.
380
00:16:40,738 --> 00:16:42,170
That's great.
381
00:16:42,206 --> 00:16:44,039
Chef's white.
382
00:16:48,441 --> 00:16:50,166
Mable?
383
00:16:50,476 --> 00:16:52,752
I ain't seen you in a hot minute.
384
00:16:52,777 --> 00:16:54,116
Have you lost weight?
385
00:16:54,141 --> 00:16:55,968
Chef's white.
386
00:16:58,546 --> 00:17:00,015
Calvin?
387
00:17:00,543 --> 00:17:02,004
What are you doing here?
388
00:17:02,204 --> 00:17:03,668
I'm letting these people know
389
00:17:03,693 --> 00:17:05,397
before they spend their black dollar
390
00:17:05,422 --> 00:17:07,543
that the chef's white.
391
00:17:08,221 --> 00:17:09,756
Really?
392
00:17:09,781 --> 00:17:11,675
Sabotaging this restaurant?
393
00:17:11,700 --> 00:17:13,100
I can't believe you.
394
00:17:13,125 --> 00:17:14,689
I can't believe you either.
395
00:17:14,714 --> 00:17:16,568
Anyone who cared about me
396
00:17:16,636 --> 00:17:19,651
would not support this
business or eat this food.
397
00:17:19,676 --> 00:17:22,277
All right, Gemma, I'm ready
to get my grub on...
398
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,713
Tina? You, too?
399
00:17:25,738 --> 00:17:27,236
I told you, Calvin.
400
00:17:27,261 --> 00:17:28,972
This is your fight, not mine.
401
00:17:28,997 --> 00:17:30,721
You know what, I can't believe you two.
402
00:17:30,746 --> 00:17:32,944
I guess Dave is the only
person I can count on.
403
00:17:32,969 --> 00:17:35,971
- Well, I gotmy antacids and...
- Oh.
404
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,117
Am I the only one who cares
what's happening around here?
405
00:17:41,150 --> 00:17:42,307
I mean,
406
00:17:42,332 --> 00:17:44,424
apparently, if the food is good enough,
407
00:17:44,485 --> 00:17:46,877
you don't care if our culture's stolen.
408
00:17:47,234 --> 00:17:48,731
You know what,
409
00:17:49,054 --> 00:17:51,172
Calvin makes a good point.
410
00:17:51,197 --> 00:17:52,812
It's not stolen.
411
00:17:52,837 --> 00:17:54,972
I read that the chef's from Louisiana.
412
00:17:54,997 --> 00:17:57,077
His recipes go back three generations.
413
00:17:58,817 --> 00:18:00,671
Can't argue with that.
414
00:18:01,821 --> 00:18:03,857
I don't care where he's from.
415
00:18:03,882 --> 00:18:05,506
He's just another white dude
416
00:18:05,531 --> 00:18:08,300
moving into our community,
trying to be down.
417
00:18:08,659 --> 00:18:12,005
Doesn't get more wack than that.
418
00:18:16,179 --> 00:18:17,947
Look, Calvin, we hear you,
419
00:18:17,972 --> 00:18:19,267
but what are we supposed to do,
420
00:18:19,292 --> 00:18:20,978
stop going to white-owned businesses?
421
00:18:21,003 --> 00:18:24,277
Oh. Now, I don't have anything
against white businesses.
422
00:18:24,302 --> 00:18:26,103
They take things back
without a receipt.
423
00:18:26,128 --> 00:18:28,732
- So...
- Oh.
424
00:18:29,744 --> 00:18:32,031
So if you're not opposed
to white businesses,
425
00:18:32,056 --> 00:18:33,558
then what's the problem?
426
00:18:33,583 --> 00:18:34,915
The problem is
427
00:18:34,940 --> 00:18:38,020
is that other people are
profiting off our culture,
428
00:18:38,045 --> 00:18:39,750
when it should be us.
429
00:18:39,775 --> 00:18:41,406
Fine. I don't see it that way.
430
00:18:41,431 --> 00:18:43,186
But for the sake of our friendship,
431
00:18:43,211 --> 00:18:46,534
I'm willing to give up delicious
ham hocks and pigs' feet.
432
00:18:46,839 --> 00:18:48,526
Hey! Two nights in a row.
433
00:18:48,551 --> 00:18:50,105
I'm glad our food's
got you coming back.
434
00:18:50,130 --> 00:18:52,910
Yeah, well, sorry, Daryl. We're
actually on our way out.
435
00:18:52,935 --> 00:18:55,072
Now, h-hold on, hold on.
436
00:18:55,097 --> 00:18:57,067
Can I ask you a question?
437
00:18:57,092 --> 00:18:59,440
- Do you like working here?
- Yeah.
438
00:18:59,465 --> 00:19:00,867
- Hmm.
- Well, wouldn't you rather
439
00:19:00,892 --> 00:19:02,827
be working for a black chef?
440
00:19:03,380 --> 00:19:05,603
That would be cool, but
Chef Mitchell's dope.
441
00:19:05,628 --> 00:19:06,808
He's teaching me a lot.
442
00:19:06,833 --> 00:19:09,738
What can he teach you about soul
food that your grandmama can't?
443
00:19:09,763 --> 00:19:11,573
It's not just about the food.
444
00:19:11,598 --> 00:19:13,701
You know, he's also teaching
me about the business.
445
00:19:13,726 --> 00:19:15,020
You never know, Mr. Butler.
446
00:19:15,075 --> 00:19:17,441
Someday, you could be
rolling up in my place.
447
00:19:18,176 --> 00:19:20,102
Mm.
448
00:19:20,630 --> 00:19:21,987
You hear that, Calvin?
449
00:19:22,012 --> 00:19:23,617
Yeah, I heard it.
450
00:19:26,455 --> 00:19:28,226
Well, it sounds to me like this place
451
00:19:28,251 --> 00:19:31,169
is giving our people
pretty good opportunities.
452
00:19:31,194 --> 00:19:32,596
And the food is legit.
453
00:19:32,621 --> 00:19:34,591
- I-I said I heard it.
- Okay.
454
00:19:34,616 --> 00:19:35,983
Okay.
455
00:19:37,154 --> 00:19:38,599
What do you say, Calvin?
456
00:19:38,624 --> 00:19:39,825
It's your call.
457
00:19:39,850 --> 00:19:41,153
Well,
458
00:19:41,178 --> 00:19:43,229
I did work up a pretty big appetite
459
00:19:43,254 --> 00:19:45,299
trying to shut this place down.
460
00:19:45,854 --> 00:19:47,942
Okay. We'll take a table for four.
461
00:19:47,967 --> 00:19:49,178
Great. You can follow me.
462
00:19:49,203 --> 00:19:50,884
Thank you.
463
00:19:50,909 --> 00:19:52,425
Hey, uh, Calvin, since...
464
00:19:52,450 --> 00:19:54,951
I paid last time, tonight's on you?
465
00:19:54,976 --> 00:19:58,178
Well, I mean, chef's
white, you're white.
466
00:19:58,203 --> 00:20:00,597
Let's just keep that going. Yeah.
467
00:20:07,521 --> 00:20:10,114
Thanks for letting me
interview you, Mr. Calvin.
468
00:20:10,139 --> 00:20:12,108
Oh, you got it, little man.
469
00:20:12,142 --> 00:20:15,637
What I don't understand is
why you two want to be here.
470
00:20:17,067 --> 00:20:20,527
Oh. We just want to watch
you do your thing, Pop.
471
00:20:21,374 --> 00:20:23,498
Yeah, Dad. You know, we
just want to soak up
472
00:20:23,523 --> 00:20:25,637
some of that fatherly wisdom.
473
00:20:27,254 --> 00:20:29,793
I am quite wise, aren't I?
474
00:20:31,927 --> 00:20:33,963
All right, Grover. Fire away.
475
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,740
Okay, first question.
476
00:20:36,906 --> 00:20:40,179
You're funny and cool and
everyone looks up to you.
477
00:20:40,204 --> 00:20:42,024
Yeah, and...?
478
00:20:42,222 --> 00:20:45,234
Why didn't Malcolm and
Marty get any of that?
479
00:20:48,173 --> 00:20:50,318
How much time you got?
480
00:20:52,878 --> 00:20:59,556
