1
00:00:04,503 --> 00:00:06,803
Hey, babe, babe, babe,
check it out.
2
00:00:06,853 --> 00:00:08,203
The biggest one they had.
3
00:00:08,246 --> 00:00:12,426
Boom! 23 pounds.
4
00:00:12,468 --> 00:00:14,208
There'’s gonna be so much
leftover turkey,
5
00:00:14,252 --> 00:00:16,382
I'’m gonna be sleepy
for weeks.
6
00:00:16,428 --> 00:00:18,128
Well, put it back.
7
00:00:18,169 --> 00:00:19,649
There'’s only four of us,
8
00:00:19,692 --> 00:00:21,472
and I'’m not cooking
that big-ass turkey.
9
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:23,140
Where'’s your Thanksgiving
spirit, babe?
10
00:00:23,174 --> 00:00:24,744
I'’ll tell you where.
11
00:00:24,784 --> 00:00:26,174
Out on your brother'’s boat,
12
00:00:26,221 --> 00:00:27,741
with the rest of your family.
13
00:00:27,787 --> 00:00:29,967
You know what,
I don'’t care if he invited us.
14
00:00:30,007 --> 00:00:33,447
I'’m done letting Curtis throw
his lotto money in my face.
15
00:00:33,489 --> 00:00:34,969
He wouldn'’t even never won
16
00:00:35,012 --> 00:00:36,622
if I wouldn'’t have stopped
at that gas station
17
00:00:36,666 --> 00:00:38,056
to get Mama a Pepsi.
18
00:00:38,102 --> 00:00:41,012
Look, I thought I was
gonna have the day off.
19
00:00:41,062 --> 00:00:42,802
Just get a smaller one,
20
00:00:42,846 --> 00:00:44,626
and stop trying to make me
cook a pterodactyl.
21
00:00:44,674 --> 00:00:47,244
Fine. How big?
22
00:00:47,285 --> 00:00:49,245
Let'’s go with 12 pounds.
23
00:00:49,287 --> 00:00:52,817
12 pounds? What the rest
of y'’all gonna eat?
24
00:00:52,856 --> 00:00:54,206
Fine.
25
00:00:56,903 --> 00:00:58,203
Hi, Tina.
26
00:00:58,253 --> 00:00:59,903
Oh, hey, guys.
What'’s up?
27
00:00:59,950 --> 00:01:02,440
Ooh, looks like you'’re stocking
up for the big day, huh?
28
00:01:02,474 --> 00:01:04,384
So, you have a bunch
of family coming over?
29
00:01:04,433 --> 00:01:07,083
No, just Calvin and the boys
sitting on the couch
30
00:01:07,131 --> 00:01:09,521
while I cook my butt off
in the kitchen,
31
00:01:09,568 --> 00:01:11,528
sweating over a stove,
you know, alone.
32
00:01:11,570 --> 00:01:13,750
A holiday.
33
00:01:13,790 --> 00:01:15,190
Well, if that'’s the case,
34
00:01:15,226 --> 00:01:16,406
you should just come
to our house.
35
00:01:16,445 --> 00:01:17,745
Right, Gemma?I'’d love that.
36
00:01:17,794 --> 00:01:19,794
Well, are you sure?
I don'’t want to impose.
37
00:01:19,839 --> 00:01:22,149
Come on, it'’ll be fun.
The men can watch football,
38
00:01:22,190 --> 00:01:24,150
and you can keep me company
while I do all the cooking.
39
00:01:24,192 --> 00:01:26,282
Okay, great, we'’re coming.
40
00:01:26,324 --> 00:01:28,324
Awesome. We'’ll see you
Thursday around noon?
41
00:01:28,370 --> 00:01:30,640
Are you sure I can'’t
bring anything?
We'’re sure.
42
00:01:30,676 --> 00:01:33,376
Good. That'’s the answer
I was looking for.
43
00:01:33,418 --> 00:01:34,898
All right.Hey, babe.
44
00:01:34,941 --> 00:01:37,021
Yeah?
Sorry.
45
00:01:37,074 --> 00:01:38,774
They didn'’t have
any 12-pounders,
46
00:01:38,815 --> 00:01:41,165
so I just rounded up
to a 20.
47
00:01:41,209 --> 00:01:44,389
Well, put it back, '’cause
we'’re going to the Johnsons'.
48
00:01:44,429 --> 00:01:45,569
The Johnsons'’?Uh-huh.
49
00:01:45,604 --> 00:01:47,214
You joking, right, Tina?Nope.
50
00:01:47,258 --> 00:01:48,958
I had to fight two people
to get this turkey.
51
00:01:48,999 --> 00:01:50,479
One lady threw
her dentures at me.
52
00:01:50,522 --> 00:01:53,872
Ooh, there she is right there.
53
00:01:53,917 --> 00:01:55,787
♪ Welcome to the block,
welcome to the neighborhood ♪
54
00:01:55,832 --> 00:01:56,522
♪ Welcome to the hood.
55
00:02:03,535 --> 00:02:05,185
Gemma, I have terrible news.
56
00:02:05,233 --> 00:02:06,713
I just got off the phone
with my mother.
57
00:02:06,756 --> 00:02:08,536
Oh, no, did something
happen to her?
58
00:02:08,584 --> 00:02:10,804
Worse. She'’s coming
for Thanksgiving.
59
00:02:10,847 --> 00:02:12,287
What?
60
00:02:12,327 --> 00:02:13,847
I thought she was going
to your Aunt Gail'’s.
61
00:02:13,893 --> 00:02:16,153
Well, yeah, apparently
they got into a fight
62
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,210
over which is better,
NCISor NCIS: Los Angeles.
63
00:02:20,987 --> 00:02:23,467
And now she'’s coming
here instead.
64
00:02:23,512 --> 00:02:25,992
But why is it bad
that Grammy'’s coming?
65
00:02:26,036 --> 00:02:27,866
Oh, it'’s not bad, Grover.
It'’s terrible.
66
00:02:27,907 --> 00:02:29,037
Dave!
67
00:02:29,082 --> 00:02:31,302
I... Okay.
68
00:02:31,346 --> 00:02:33,826
Look, you know that nobody loves
Grammy more than I do,
69
00:02:33,870 --> 00:02:35,700
but... she'’s getting
a little bit older
70
00:02:35,741 --> 00:02:38,261
and she comes from
a small town and, well,
71
00:02:38,309 --> 00:02:40,969
you know how we tell you
that there are things
72
00:02:41,007 --> 00:02:42,707
that people might think
73
00:02:42,748 --> 00:02:45,708
but should never, ever say?Yeah.
74
00:02:45,751 --> 00:02:47,661
Grammy doesn'’t believe
that'’s true.
75
00:02:47,710 --> 00:02:50,240
Yeah. Hey, buddy.
76
00:02:50,278 --> 00:02:51,938
Can I talk to Mommy alone
for a minute?
77
00:02:51,975 --> 00:02:53,845
Are you gonna tell her
something about Grammy
78
00:02:53,890 --> 00:02:54,940
that you think
but shouldn'’t say?
79
00:02:54,978 --> 00:02:56,508
Yes.
80
00:02:59,548 --> 00:03:01,678
Gemma, what are we gonna do?
81
00:03:01,724 --> 00:03:04,074
We have to uninvite the Butlers.
82
00:03:04,117 --> 00:03:06,777
Sweetie, it'’s the day before
Thanksgiving; that'’d be rude.
83
00:03:06,816 --> 00:03:08,386
Ruder than my mom?
84
00:03:08,426 --> 00:03:09,996
Remember when she went off
on that lady
85
00:03:10,036 --> 00:03:12,606
about how we need
to "build the wall"?
86
00:03:12,648 --> 00:03:15,658
Yes, I do.
87
00:03:15,694 --> 00:03:19,654
We had to start going
to a different Taco Bell.
88
00:03:19,698 --> 00:03:22,618
Gemma, she is going to ruin
Thanksgiving, I know it.
89
00:03:22,658 --> 00:03:24,448
Sweetie, I know you get
embarrassed by your mom,
90
00:03:24,486 --> 00:03:25,876
but she'’s an adult.
91
00:03:25,922 --> 00:03:27,312
You'’re not in charge
of her behavior.
92
00:03:27,358 --> 00:03:29,798
And what if she says something
offensive to the Butlers?
93
00:03:29,839 --> 00:03:31,319
You know, Calvin and I
are starting
94
00:03:31,362 --> 00:03:32,622
to become such good friends.
95
00:03:34,496 --> 00:03:36,066
I know. But
you know what?
96
00:03:36,106 --> 00:03:38,106
Maybe it'’s a good
thing she'’s coming.
97
00:03:38,151 --> 00:03:39,931
You always say the reason
she'’s the way she is
98
00:03:39,979 --> 00:03:42,069
is because she only knows
people just like her.
99
00:03:42,112 --> 00:03:44,022
We can help change that.
100
00:03:44,070 --> 00:03:46,030
Okay, you know,
m-maybe you'’re right.
101
00:03:46,072 --> 00:03:47,552
You know, maybe
this is a chance
102
00:03:47,596 --> 00:03:49,296
for us to broaden
her horizons.
103
00:03:49,337 --> 00:03:50,647
To introduce her to
104
00:03:50,686 --> 00:03:53,126
a new spectrum
of people.
Exactly.
105
00:03:53,166 --> 00:03:56,036
Grammy wants to know how often
there are riots around here.
106
00:03:56,082 --> 00:03:57,562
Oh, no...
107
00:03:59,434 --> 00:04:01,524
Can I uninvite them now?
108
00:04:01,566 --> 00:04:02,476
Why are you still standing here?
109
00:04:04,221 --> 00:04:06,131
I cannot believe
that we'’re going
110
00:04:06,179 --> 00:04:08,269
to the Johnsons'’
for Thanksgiving.
111
00:04:08,312 --> 00:04:10,312
I mean, since we
weren'’t going to
112
00:04:10,358 --> 00:04:12,628
my brother Curtis'’s,
I thought I could finally
113
00:04:12,664 --> 00:04:14,404
start my own
Thanksgiving traditions.
114
00:04:14,449 --> 00:04:15,849
Like what?
115
00:04:15,885 --> 00:04:17,925
Like not going
to the Johnsons'’.
116
00:04:19,236 --> 00:04:21,156
[doorbell rings]
117
00:04:21,194 --> 00:04:23,154
Well, I plan on
laying around
118
00:04:23,196 --> 00:04:25,376
while somebody else
worries about the cooking.
119
00:04:25,416 --> 00:04:26,636
Feels good to be a man.
120
00:04:29,072 --> 00:04:32,242
Hey, Calvin.Come on in, man.
121
00:04:32,293 --> 00:04:34,033
Hey, I wanted to talk
to you guys about tomorrow.
122
00:04:34,077 --> 00:04:36,477
I'’m not wearing a
pilgrim'’s hat, Dave.
123
00:04:36,514 --> 00:04:39,424
Well, good news:
you won'’t have to
124
00:04:39,474 --> 00:04:41,604
because I'’m here to,
um, uninvite you.
125
00:04:41,650 --> 00:04:43,260
What?
126
00:04:43,304 --> 00:04:44,784
My man, Dave!
127
00:04:44,827 --> 00:04:46,307
Wait a minute.
[laughing]
128
00:04:46,350 --> 00:04:47,530
Wait a minute.Oh, yeah.
129
00:04:47,569 --> 00:04:49,009
Hold up.
130
00:04:49,048 --> 00:04:50,488
What do you mean,
you'’re uninviting us?
131
00:04:50,528 --> 00:04:52,398
Come on, it doesn'’t
matter, Tina. You know?
132
00:04:52,443 --> 00:04:54,353
We already hugged it out
and everything; a deal'’s a deal.
133
00:04:54,402 --> 00:04:55,752
Oh, no. Wait, wait, wait.
134
00:04:55,794 --> 00:04:57,184
Wait, where you going?
No, no.
135
00:04:57,230 --> 00:04:59,280
I want to know what happened.
136
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,460
Well, as it turns out,
my mom is surprising us
137
00:05:01,496 --> 00:05:03,366
and flying in from
Michigan and, uh...
138
00:05:03,411 --> 00:05:05,761
[chuckles] ...she can
be kind of a handful.
139
00:05:05,804 --> 00:05:08,284
What do you mean,
she'’s a handful?
140
00:05:08,329 --> 00:05:10,939
Now, Tina, Tina.
The lady'’s a handful.
141
00:05:10,983 --> 00:05:12,283
What else do you need
to know? Come on.
142
00:05:12,333 --> 00:05:14,723
Well, look,
it just, it'’s...
143
00:05:14,770 --> 00:05:15,950
You know, she'’s
from a small town,
144
00:05:15,988 --> 00:05:17,298
she'’s kind of
old-school,
145
00:05:17,338 --> 00:05:18,388
she can be pretty
conservative.
146
00:05:18,426 --> 00:05:20,206
Oh, she'’s racist.
147
00:05:22,343 --> 00:05:23,863
No, she-she'’s not racist,
148
00:05:23,909 --> 00:05:25,739
she just says things
most people know not to
149
00:05:25,781 --> 00:05:27,731
because they'’re
horribly offensive.
150
00:05:27,783 --> 00:05:29,003
So she'’s like Calvin.
151
00:05:30,612 --> 00:05:32,432
How am I offensive?
152
00:05:32,483 --> 00:05:34,653
I mean, you'’re not
offensive as a person,
153
00:05:34,703 --> 00:05:36,963
but you know, it'’s,
it'’s just your words
154
00:05:37,009 --> 00:05:38,799
and your tone
155
00:05:38,837 --> 00:05:40,017
and your opinions.
156
00:05:42,058 --> 00:05:43,318
I just tell
the truth, Tina.
157
00:05:43,364 --> 00:05:44,884
Hmm.
It'’s not my fault
158
00:05:44,930 --> 00:05:47,370
that a bunch of little
crybabies can'’t handle it.
159
00:05:47,411 --> 00:05:49,021
That'’s actually
how my mom started
160
00:05:49,065 --> 00:05:50,415
her Christmas
letter last year.
161
00:05:52,460 --> 00:05:53,640
Listen, baby, I'’m
not trying to make
162
00:05:53,678 --> 00:05:55,508
you feel bad, but you know
you are not gonna
163
00:05:55,550 --> 00:05:57,560
be able to be around
somebody like Dave'’s mom.
164
00:05:57,595 --> 00:05:59,375
So, I guess
I'’ll be doing
165
00:05:59,423 --> 00:06:02,123
the cooking this year
after all.
166
00:06:02,165 --> 00:06:04,425
T-Tina, no.
You know what?
167
00:06:04,472 --> 00:06:06,692
No, you sit
back and relax.
168
00:06:06,735 --> 00:06:08,345
You'’re gonna get that
day off that you deserve.
169
00:06:09,477 --> 00:06:12,307
No. No, no, no.
170
00:06:12,349 --> 00:06:13,699
We agreed; we hugged
and everything.
171
00:06:15,918 --> 00:06:18,048
Sorry, Dave.
172
00:06:18,094 --> 00:06:19,394
I reject your uninvite.
173
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,580
We'’re coming to your house
for Thanksgiving.
174
00:06:23,621 --> 00:06:25,791
Calvin, what
about my mom?
175
00:06:25,841 --> 00:06:27,271
Doesn'’t matter.
176
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:28,800
You know, like I always say,
177
00:06:28,844 --> 00:06:30,494
when they go low, I go high.
178
00:06:30,541 --> 00:06:33,021
That'’s right,
that'’s right.
179
00:06:33,065 --> 00:06:34,935
And that'’s exactly
what I'’m gonna do.
180
00:06:34,980 --> 00:06:37,070
Mm-hmm.No matter what
181
00:06:37,113 --> 00:06:40,243
your backwoods, whitebread,
hillbilly-ass mama has to say.
182
00:06:42,379 --> 00:06:44,519
I can'’t believe
this weather.
183
00:06:44,555 --> 00:06:46,515
In November! [chuckles]
184
00:06:46,557 --> 00:06:47,867
It'’s nice, isn't it?
185
00:06:47,906 --> 00:06:50,126
Grover can play outside
all year round.
186
00:06:50,169 --> 00:06:51,869
That'’s wonderful.
187
00:06:51,910 --> 00:06:53,390
Makes you wonder
why people are always
188
00:06:53,434 --> 00:06:54,864
shooting each other out here.
189
00:06:56,698 --> 00:06:58,878
People shoot
each other out here?
190
00:06:58,917 --> 00:07:01,837
All the time, honey.
191
00:07:01,877 --> 00:07:04,007
Mom, that'’s-that's not true.
192
00:07:04,053 --> 00:07:06,143
It is according to
my news channel.
193
00:07:06,185 --> 00:07:08,145
Well, not according to mine.
194
00:07:08,187 --> 00:07:10,277
You should really try
to watch more than one of them.
195
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,020
Fine. How many
do you watch?
196
00:07:12,061 --> 00:07:15,971
Well, uh, one.
197
00:07:16,021 --> 00:07:18,151
Oh! I brought cookies.
198
00:07:18,197 --> 00:07:19,247
Oh.
[chuckles]
199
00:07:19,285 --> 00:07:20,805
Buddy, just-just
one, okay?
200
00:07:20,852 --> 00:07:22,022
We have dinner later.
201
00:07:22,071 --> 00:07:23,501
Hmm, your daddy
could never stop
202
00:07:23,551 --> 00:07:25,501
at just one.
[chuckles]
203
00:07:25,553 --> 00:07:26,593
In middle school,
we had to shop
204
00:07:26,641 --> 00:07:28,291
in the husky section.
205
00:07:30,514 --> 00:07:34,774
Oh, but look at that chiseled,
handsome face now.
206
00:07:34,823 --> 00:07:36,563
Oh, baby,
your skin is dry.
207
00:07:36,607 --> 00:07:38,177
Are you using moisturizer?
208
00:07:38,217 --> 00:07:41,657
Y-Yes, Mom,
I'’m sufficiently moist.
209
00:07:41,699 --> 00:07:43,489
Well, I hope
it has SPF,
210
00:07:43,527 --> 00:07:45,007
because if it
doesn'’t have SPF,
211
00:07:45,050 --> 00:07:46,230
you'’re gonna end up
with cancer
212
00:07:46,269 --> 00:07:47,749
just like
your Uncle John.
213
00:07:47,792 --> 00:07:49,442
I didn'’t know
Uncle John has cancer.
214
00:07:49,490 --> 00:07:51,410
He had to get his ear removed.
215
00:07:53,668 --> 00:07:55,978
But it went fine,
he had a Jewish doctor.
216
00:07:56,018 --> 00:07:57,408
Mom...
217
00:07:57,454 --> 00:07:59,194
"A Jewish doctor"?
218
00:07:59,238 --> 00:08:02,028
Yes. Everyone knows
they'’re the best.
219
00:08:02,067 --> 00:08:03,417
Although, I now hear
the Indian ones
220
00:08:03,460 --> 00:08:05,550
are catching up.
[sighs]
221
00:08:05,593 --> 00:08:07,073
Hey, Grammy, look.
222
00:08:07,116 --> 00:08:08,726
There'’s my school.
Oh.
223
00:08:08,770 --> 00:08:10,300
The school is pretty great.
224
00:08:10,336 --> 00:08:12,206
Gemma is doing an amazing job.
225
00:08:12,251 --> 00:08:14,071
You know, she just
implemented a new curriculum
226
00:08:14,123 --> 00:08:15,423
that teaches the
kids empathy.
227
00:08:15,472 --> 00:08:18,122
Oh, good for her. Oh, yeah.
228
00:08:18,170 --> 00:08:19,790
The kids have
the rest of their lives
229
00:08:19,824 --> 00:08:21,564
to learn things like
reading and math.
230
00:08:21,609 --> 00:08:24,489
Well, they teach
those things, too.
231
00:08:24,525 --> 00:08:26,135
Oh, I'’m sure they do.
232
00:08:26,178 --> 00:08:30,138
Grover. Can you tell me
the capital of Michigan?
233
00:08:30,182 --> 00:08:32,142
Sure.[iPad beeps]
234
00:08:32,184 --> 00:08:34,354
Siri, what'’s the capital
of Michigan?[iPad beeps]
235
00:08:34,404 --> 00:08:37,754
SIRI: Lansing is
the capital of Michigan.
236
00:08:37,799 --> 00:08:39,369
Hmm, well, at least
he has empathy.
237
00:08:41,454 --> 00:08:43,324
Hey, I'’m sorry, Pop,
but there'’s no way
238
00:08:43,369 --> 00:08:44,849
you'’re not fighting
with Dave'’s mom.
239
00:08:44,893 --> 00:08:47,373
I know. A proud black patriarch
going toe-to-toe
240
00:08:47,417 --> 00:08:48,987
with a loudmouth
Midwestern grandma?
241
00:08:49,027 --> 00:08:51,467
Man, that should be
a pay-per-view match. [laughs]
242
00:08:51,508 --> 00:08:53,508
Or at least a Tyler Perry movie.
243
00:08:53,554 --> 00:08:55,774
[laughing]
244
00:08:55,817 --> 00:08:57,777
Well, prepare to
be disappointed.
245
00:08:57,819 --> 00:08:59,259
Because I'’m not
gonna do anything
246
00:08:59,298 --> 00:09:01,128
to ruin your
mother'’s holiday.
247
00:09:01,170 --> 00:09:02,520
Trust me, boys.
248
00:09:02,563 --> 00:09:04,733
You got to respect the mamas.
249
00:09:04,782 --> 00:09:07,612
Listen to your father;
he'’s right.
250
00:09:07,655 --> 00:09:10,655
'’Cause he knows
if he ruins this day for me,
251
00:09:10,701 --> 00:09:11,911
I'’m leaving him
for your Uncle Curtis
252
00:09:11,963 --> 00:09:14,093
and his boat.
253
00:09:14,139 --> 00:09:15,709
Come on, girl.
254
00:09:15,750 --> 00:09:17,890
You know you can'’t
leave all this.
255
00:09:17,926 --> 00:09:18,926
Come on, now.
256
00:09:20,798 --> 00:09:24,458
So, this is where
you used to live
257
00:09:24,497 --> 00:09:27,717
and this is where you live now.
258
00:09:27,762 --> 00:09:32,242
Far, far away from me.
259
00:09:32,288 --> 00:09:34,508
[sighs]
260
00:09:34,551 --> 00:09:37,111
I miss seeing you
all the time.
261
00:09:37,162 --> 00:09:39,292
Oh, I know honey.
262
00:09:39,338 --> 00:09:42,868
But this is where your mom
and dad decided to move.
263
00:09:42,907 --> 00:09:45,517
For reasons maybe they can
explain to both of us.
264
00:09:47,695 --> 00:09:49,395
Hey, Grover, can you go help
Mommy in the kitchen?
265
00:09:49,435 --> 00:09:51,485
Okay.
[chuckles]
266
00:09:51,524 --> 00:09:54,094
What'’s the capital
of North Dakota?Bismarck.
267
00:09:54,136 --> 00:09:58,576
[laughs] You'’ll thank me
when he gets into college.
268
00:09:58,619 --> 00:10:00,539
Okay, yeah, uh...
269
00:10:00,577 --> 00:10:03,017
Mom, listen; before our
neighbors get here,
270
00:10:03,058 --> 00:10:05,718
I just want to talk to you
about maybe being careful
271
00:10:05,756 --> 00:10:07,676
with some of the
things that you say.
272
00:10:07,715 --> 00:10:10,415
Oh. Is this because
they'’re black?
273
00:10:11,544 --> 00:10:13,724
Yes.
274
00:10:13,764 --> 00:10:15,674
And-and you'’re afraid
275
00:10:15,723 --> 00:10:17,243
I'’m going to say
something rude.
276
00:10:17,289 --> 00:10:19,689
Exactly.
277
00:10:19,727 --> 00:10:21,467
Because they'’re always
so sensitive...
No.
278
00:10:21,511 --> 00:10:23,291
No, Mom. No.
279
00:10:23,339 --> 00:10:24,819
[doorbell rings]
280
00:10:24,862 --> 00:10:27,952
[laughs] It'’ll be fine,
David, I promise you.
281
00:10:27,996 --> 00:10:30,436
You don'’t have to treat me
like I'’m a child.
282
00:10:30,476 --> 00:10:31,606
Okay, you know what?
You'’re right, Mom.
283
00:10:31,652 --> 00:10:33,392
I'’m-I'm sorry.Honestly.
284
00:10:33,436 --> 00:10:36,266
It'’s like you think I don't know
how to talk to the blacks.
285
00:10:40,051 --> 00:10:42,611
♪
286
00:10:49,234 --> 00:10:51,104
Mom, how can you not know
that it'’s wrong
287
00:10:51,149 --> 00:10:52,759
to refer to black people
as "the blacks"?
288
00:10:52,803 --> 00:10:56,193
You live in Michigan,
not the 1950s.
289
00:10:56,241 --> 00:11:00,631
You kids are so darn
politically correct these days.
290
00:11:00,681 --> 00:11:02,811
It'’s like everyone's so worried
about each other'’s feelings.
291
00:11:02,857 --> 00:11:05,117
You say that like
it'’s a bad thing.
292
00:11:07,513 --> 00:11:08,863
I'’m sure they
didn'’t even hear me,
293
00:11:08,906 --> 00:11:10,866
and if they did they
would'’ve said something.
294
00:11:10,908 --> 00:11:13,348
I can'’t believe
you didn'’t say something.
295
00:11:13,389 --> 00:11:16,659
I love your mother very much.
296
00:11:18,307 --> 00:11:20,657
I can'’t believe
she really said that.
297
00:11:20,701 --> 00:11:21,831
I can.
298
00:11:23,921 --> 00:11:27,481
What I can'’t believe is that
Calvin didn'’t lose his cool.
299
00:11:27,533 --> 00:11:30,493
Well, if I were you, I would'’ve
turned right around and left.
300
00:11:30,536 --> 00:11:32,406
Are you kidding?
301
00:11:32,451 --> 00:11:34,751
I'’m sipping wine while a white
lady and her son cook for me.
302
00:11:37,239 --> 00:11:42,289
If my ancestors could
see me now, they'’d be like,
303
00:11:42,331 --> 00:11:45,241
"Look at you, Tina.
You go, girl!"
304
00:11:47,858 --> 00:11:50,038
Okay, I have everyone'’s drinks.
305
00:11:50,078 --> 00:11:51,428
Ooh!
Right.
306
00:11:51,470 --> 00:11:53,650
Yeah.
307
00:11:53,690 --> 00:11:56,130
Damn, Dave,
these are strong.
308
00:11:56,171 --> 00:12:00,261
[coughing]
309
00:12:00,305 --> 00:12:04,005
Yeah, I thought I'’d get ahead
of it and numb everyone'’s pain.
310
00:12:04,048 --> 00:12:07,708
So, I want to know more
311
00:12:07,748 --> 00:12:09,798
about all of you.
312
00:12:09,837 --> 00:12:10,797
Marty, right?Yeah.
313
00:12:10,838 --> 00:12:12,018
Um, what do you do?
314
00:12:12,056 --> 00:12:14,016
Oh, I'’m an engineer at JPL.
315
00:12:14,058 --> 00:12:16,668
Oh, what'’s that?
A-A rap radio station?
316
00:12:20,630 --> 00:12:23,590
Mom, JPL stands for
Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
317
00:12:23,633 --> 00:12:25,593
That'’s right.
I work on the satellites.
318
00:12:25,635 --> 00:12:27,765
Oh, that'’s impressive.Yeah.
319
00:12:27,811 --> 00:12:29,331
You must have gone
to an excellent school.
320
00:12:29,378 --> 00:12:31,378
I did. USC.Oh.
321
00:12:31,423 --> 00:12:33,863
In fact, Marty had
a full scholarship.
322
00:12:33,904 --> 00:12:36,554
Oh, so does that mean
you were an athlete?
323
00:12:36,602 --> 00:12:37,992
[laughs]
324
00:12:38,039 --> 00:12:39,569
CALVIN:
Paula.
325
00:12:39,605 --> 00:12:40,865
Can I, can I call you Paula?
326
00:12:42,434 --> 00:12:44,824
Assuming that Marty
was an athlete
327
00:12:44,872 --> 00:12:46,872
because he'’s black
and went to college,
328
00:12:46,917 --> 00:12:50,097
well, some people might
consider that a stereotype.
329
00:12:50,138 --> 00:12:52,838
Oh, really? It just seems
that every athlete
330
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:54,100
I see on my TV is black.
331
00:12:57,188 --> 00:12:59,458
Should'’ve made these stronger.
332
00:12:59,495 --> 00:13:01,405
[chuckling]
333
00:13:01,453 --> 00:13:05,063
I mean, Paula, I mean,
clearly you must know
334
00:13:05,109 --> 00:13:08,069
that not every black man
is an athlete.
335
00:13:08,112 --> 00:13:11,072
Marty'’s scholarship was for
his academic achievements.
336
00:13:11,115 --> 00:13:14,205
Oh. A-A-And what
about you, Malcolm,
337
00:13:14,249 --> 00:13:16,119
did you also get
an academic scholarship?
338
00:13:16,164 --> 00:13:18,034
Nope. [laughs]
339
00:13:20,168 --> 00:13:21,518
I was an athlete.
340
00:13:23,345 --> 00:13:26,045
Just like the ones
you see on TV.
341
00:13:27,436 --> 00:13:28,396
He'’s unemployed, too.
342
00:13:33,964 --> 00:13:37,834
So, Calvin, I couldn'’t help
but notice your truck outside.
343
00:13:37,881 --> 00:13:39,141
I mean, it is beautiful.
344
00:13:39,187 --> 00:13:40,407
Oh, thank you.
345
00:13:40,449 --> 00:13:42,589
Do you do the maintenance
yourself?
346
00:13:42,625 --> 00:13:44,405
Yeah, you know,
I'’ve been taking care of her
347
00:13:44,453 --> 00:13:46,323
ever since she belonged
to my father.
348
00:13:46,368 --> 00:13:50,548
Oh, that'’s great.
You know, us Michiganders,
349
00:13:50,589 --> 00:13:53,769
I mean, we love anyone
who knows his way around a car.
350
00:13:53,810 --> 00:13:55,730
And you know what?
I'’ll drink to that.
351
00:13:55,768 --> 00:13:57,728
Here, here, here.
352
00:13:57,770 --> 00:13:59,430
You know, in fact,
353
00:13:59,468 --> 00:14:02,038
my very first boyfriend,
he was also a grease monkey.
354
00:14:04,516 --> 00:14:06,216
I-I-I ain'’t gonna
be able to do this.
355
00:14:06,257 --> 00:14:09,177
Dad, remember, remember,
respect the mamas.
356
00:14:10,914 --> 00:14:13,264
Calvin, I'’m-I'm
sorry. Mom.
357
00:14:13,308 --> 00:14:16,268
You cannot call Calvin a monkey.
358
00:14:16,311 --> 00:14:18,921
It is an incredibly
offensive term.
359
00:14:18,966 --> 00:14:22,576
I didn'’t call him a monkey.
I called him a grease monkey.
360
00:14:24,406 --> 00:14:26,056
They'’re two totally
different things.
361
00:14:26,103 --> 00:14:28,493
Not the way
you say it.
Mm-mm.
362
00:14:28,540 --> 00:14:30,020
You know what?
363
00:14:30,064 --> 00:14:34,244
I think I'’m gonna go outside
and get some evening air.
364
00:14:34,285 --> 00:14:35,635
It'’s only 12:30.
365
00:14:35,678 --> 00:14:36,898
I know what damn time
it is, Malcolm.
366
00:14:41,989 --> 00:14:44,339
Mom, you need to go outside
and apologize to Calvin.
367
00:14:44,382 --> 00:14:45,732
For what?
368
00:14:45,775 --> 00:14:47,645
Well, for calling him
a grease monkey.
369
00:14:47,690 --> 00:14:49,650
Now, I know you may not
have meant it that way,
370
00:14:49,692 --> 00:14:52,732
but it is still
incredibly offensive.
371
00:14:52,782 --> 00:14:53,952
Fine.
372
00:14:54,001 --> 00:14:55,871
If that'’s what'll
make you happy.
373
00:14:55,916 --> 00:14:57,966
Thank you.
374
00:14:58,005 --> 00:15:00,655
But, honestly, you people
can be so sensitive.
375
00:15:04,098 --> 00:15:06,448
We should do this
every year.
376
00:15:06,491 --> 00:15:08,791
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
377
00:15:08,841 --> 00:15:10,231
Calvin,
378
00:15:10,278 --> 00:15:12,198
I owe you an apology.
379
00:15:12,236 --> 00:15:13,416
Oh, thank you.
380
00:15:13,455 --> 00:15:14,675
But if you ask me,
381
00:15:14,717 --> 00:15:16,067
I think you'’re overreacting.
382
00:15:16,110 --> 00:15:17,590
You think I'’m overreacting?
383
00:15:17,633 --> 00:15:19,503
After all that stuff
you said in there?
384
00:15:19,548 --> 00:15:22,078
You mean about thinking
Marty was an athlete?
385
00:15:22,116 --> 00:15:23,726
Why is that such a crime?
386
00:15:23,769 --> 00:15:26,909
Please, let'’s not start
talking about crime.
387
00:15:26,947 --> 00:15:28,867
Let me tell you
why, Paula.
388
00:15:28,905 --> 00:15:30,995
Because everything you think
you know about black people
389
00:15:31,038 --> 00:15:32,568
is a stereotype.
390
00:15:32,604 --> 00:15:35,214
Oh, maybe, but in my experience,
391
00:15:35,259 --> 00:15:37,659
most stereotypes
are rooted in the truth.
392
00:15:37,696 --> 00:15:40,616
Here I am standing
right here in front of you
393
00:15:40,656 --> 00:15:43,356
telling you that they'’re not,
yet you won'’t listen.
394
00:15:43,398 --> 00:15:45,008
Oh, I listen.
395
00:15:45,052 --> 00:15:46,792
Yeah, to fake news.
396
00:15:46,836 --> 00:15:48,966
Oh, you listen to fake news.
397
00:15:49,012 --> 00:15:50,492
Oh, no, yours is faker.
398
00:15:50,535 --> 00:15:52,845
No, I'’m sorry,
yours is much faker.
399
00:15:52,885 --> 00:15:55,535
[overlapping arguing]Will you both please shut up?
400
00:15:58,108 --> 00:16:01,248
Did he just tell
his mother to shut up?
401
00:16:01,285 --> 00:16:04,675
Did he just tell
Calvin to shut up?
402
00:16:04,723 --> 00:16:07,983
I'’m done joking.
403
00:16:08,031 --> 00:16:11,251
I'’m-a sell this to pay-per-view.
404
00:16:11,295 --> 00:16:12,775
You need to stay
out of this, Dave.
405
00:16:12,818 --> 00:16:14,608
We'’re just having
a conversation.
406
00:16:14,646 --> 00:16:16,216
She just saying what she thinks.
407
00:16:16,257 --> 00:16:19,257
Yes, but what she
thinks is awful.
408
00:16:19,303 --> 00:16:22,953
I have a right to my opinions.
Don'’t talk about me like that.
409
00:16:23,003 --> 00:16:25,653
Oh, you mean like the way
you talk about other people?
410
00:16:25,701 --> 00:16:28,091
It'’s like you don't care
if what you say hurts them.
411
00:16:28,138 --> 00:16:30,538
You know, that'’s exactly
what I was trying to say, Paula.
412
00:16:30,575 --> 00:16:32,095
[stammers]
413
00:16:32,142 --> 00:16:34,102
Everyone'’s just so sensitive
these days.
414
00:16:34,144 --> 00:16:37,844
You know, I can actually agree
with you about that.
415
00:16:37,887 --> 00:16:42,677
Yes, Mom, it'’s everyone else's
fault for being so sensitive.
416
00:16:42,718 --> 00:16:45,858
It'’s probably from
teaching empathy.
417
00:16:45,895 --> 00:16:48,205
I don'’t understand, Mom,
418
00:16:48,245 --> 00:16:51,555
how someone who I love so much,
419
00:16:51,596 --> 00:16:54,386
who I know deep down
is a good person,
420
00:16:54,425 --> 00:16:58,035
can say such ignorant
and embarrassing things as you.
421
00:17:01,432 --> 00:17:03,522
I'’m sorry you feel that way
about your mother.
422
00:17:05,436 --> 00:17:06,956
Now if you'’ll
excuse me...
423
00:17:09,223 --> 00:17:10,613
Oh, shoot, here she comes!
424
00:17:10,659 --> 00:17:12,319
[all exclaiming]
425
00:17:17,361 --> 00:17:18,921
I'’m sorry if I offended
any of you.
426
00:17:18,971 --> 00:17:21,531
That was never my intention.
427
00:17:21,583 --> 00:17:25,103
So, if you'’ll excuse me,
I'’m gonna go pack my bags.
428
00:17:25,152 --> 00:17:27,062
Wait, no, no, no, no, no. Paula,
Paula, please don'’t leave.
429
00:17:27,110 --> 00:17:28,770
You'’re family.
430
00:17:28,807 --> 00:17:31,677
Yeah, Grammy,
I don'’t want you to go.
431
00:17:31,723 --> 00:17:35,373
I know, honey, but clearly
432
00:17:35,423 --> 00:17:37,983
your father doesn'’t
want me here, so...
433
00:17:38,034 --> 00:17:40,344
I guess now we know why
you moved so far away.
434
00:17:43,170 --> 00:17:44,910
Dave,
435
00:17:44,954 --> 00:17:46,734
you can'’t talk to
your mother like that.
436
00:17:46,782 --> 00:17:48,132
You need to chill, man.
437
00:17:48,175 --> 00:17:49,655
Are you really defending her?
438
00:17:49,698 --> 00:17:51,398
Oh, I'’ll do
more than that.
439
00:17:51,439 --> 00:17:53,659
If she wanted to whup you,
I would hold you down.
440
00:17:53,702 --> 00:17:55,652
Look.
441
00:17:55,704 --> 00:17:57,574
She'’s just speaking
her mind, man.
442
00:17:57,619 --> 00:18:00,279
It'’s not her fault
that she is wildly misinformed.
443
00:18:01,971 --> 00:18:05,801
Misinformed? She'’s worse
than misinformed.
444
00:18:05,844 --> 00:18:08,844
Yeah, well, at least with her
you know where you stand.
445
00:18:08,891 --> 00:18:11,891
Yes, and because of that,
I wore a T-shirt in the pool
446
00:18:11,937 --> 00:18:13,597
until I was
18 years old.
447
00:18:16,246 --> 00:18:19,906
Trust me, Dave, you'’re better
off knowing what someone thinks.
448
00:18:19,945 --> 00:18:22,515
It'’s when you don't is when
they could sneak up on you.
449
00:18:22,557 --> 00:18:25,217
When who sneaks
up on you?
450
00:18:25,255 --> 00:18:28,255
The people that can
hurt you most.
451
00:18:28,302 --> 00:18:31,472
Like a son telling his mom
she embarrasses him.
452
00:18:31,522 --> 00:18:33,172
Yeah, but she does.
453
00:18:33,220 --> 00:18:36,140
It doesn'’t matter.
She gave you life, man.
454
00:18:36,179 --> 00:18:39,099
She deserves
your respect.
455
00:18:39,139 --> 00:18:43,189
Look, Paula is who she is,
she'’s not gonna change.
456
00:18:43,230 --> 00:18:45,500
But she'’s also not gonna
be around forever.
457
00:18:45,536 --> 00:18:47,796
And when she'’s not?
458
00:18:47,843 --> 00:18:50,193
I don'’t care how much
she embarrasses you,
459
00:18:50,237 --> 00:18:52,807
you gonna miss her like you
never missed anybody before.
460
00:18:56,547 --> 00:18:59,077
Sounds like you know
what you'’re talking about.
461
00:18:59,115 --> 00:19:01,895
I do.
I miss my mother every day.
462
00:19:04,903 --> 00:19:06,423
When did she pass?
463
00:19:06,470 --> 00:19:07,780
Oh, she didn'’t pass.
464
00:19:09,604 --> 00:19:14,214
No, she just travels around the
world with my brother, Curtis.
465
00:19:14,261 --> 00:19:16,471
He has to
buy her love.
466
00:19:19,222 --> 00:19:20,742
Well, now I feel like a jerk.
467
00:19:20,789 --> 00:19:23,619
Well, look,
you'’ll be fine, man.
468
00:19:23,661 --> 00:19:26,481
Just go in there
and apologize,
469
00:19:26,534 --> 00:19:29,364
let her know she'’s the most
important woman in your life,
470
00:19:29,406 --> 00:19:31,716
and that you'’ll love her
no matter what.
471
00:19:35,238 --> 00:19:38,028
You think she'’ll
forgive me?
472
00:19:38,067 --> 00:19:39,857
Of course, man.
473
00:19:39,895 --> 00:19:42,895
I mean, just tell her the only
reason that you yelled at her
474
00:19:42,941 --> 00:19:44,851
is that you'’ve been living
around all these black people
475
00:19:44,900 --> 00:19:45,990
and they made you crazy.
476
00:19:53,300 --> 00:19:55,480
I'’m glad you decided
to stay, Grammy.
477
00:19:55,519 --> 00:20:00,659
Aw, well, I'’m glad your
father convinced me to.
478
00:20:00,698 --> 00:20:04,448
I'’ve never seen your mom change
her mind. How'’d you do it?
479
00:20:04,485 --> 00:20:06,055
Well, I just told her the truth.
480
00:20:06,095 --> 00:20:07,615
I said, even though
we fight sometimes,
481
00:20:07,662 --> 00:20:10,442
she'’s still my mom
and I'’ll always love her.
482
00:20:10,491 --> 00:20:12,271
And that was enough?
483
00:20:12,319 --> 00:20:14,409
No.
484
00:20:14,451 --> 00:20:15,881
She also thought her Uber driver
485
00:20:15,931 --> 00:20:17,411
looked like a terrorist
she saw on TV.
486
00:20:20,762 --> 00:20:22,762
You know, Gemma,
this food is really delicious.
487
00:20:22,807 --> 00:20:24,467
Yeah, Gemma,
for a skinny white girl,
488
00:20:24,505 --> 00:20:26,245
you sure can burn
like you black.
489
00:20:26,289 --> 00:20:28,209
[laughter]
490
00:20:28,248 --> 00:20:31,168
Oh.
You know what,
I'’d like to make a toast.
491
00:20:31,207 --> 00:20:35,907
To the Johnson and
the Butler families,
492
00:20:35,951 --> 00:20:37,951
two families that have a lot
to be thankful for.
493
00:20:39,607 --> 00:20:41,267
And even though
494
00:20:41,304 --> 00:20:43,474
we don'’t always
see eye to eye,
495
00:20:43,524 --> 00:20:47,574
it'’s good to know that
if we communicate honestly,
496
00:20:47,615 --> 00:20:49,615
we can always find
common ground.
497
00:20:51,358 --> 00:20:52,748
Here, here.
498
00:20:52,794 --> 00:20:53,704
[overlapping talking]
499
00:20:53,751 --> 00:20:55,181
I would just like to add to...
500
00:20:55,231 --> 00:20:56,751
EVERYONE ELSE:
No, no, no, no, no, no!
