1
00:00:03,671 --> 00:00:05,938
Hey, Dad, I'm doing
a children's book reading
2
00:00:05,939 --> 00:00:08,641
at Maya's school next week.
Love for you to be there.
3
00:00:08,642 --> 00:00:11,245
(footsteps approaching)
4
00:00:12,180 --> 00:00:14,348
You had me at "Maya."
5
00:00:18,686 --> 00:00:21,555
I will be there or be square.
(laughs)
6
00:00:21,655 --> 00:00:25,025
What in the Hair Club for Men?
7
00:00:26,894 --> 00:00:28,896
Dad, what's going on?
8
00:00:29,029 --> 00:00:30,431
I'll tell you
what's going on.
9
00:00:30,531 --> 00:00:32,866
Daddio is going
on a date.
10
00:00:32,966 --> 00:00:35,669
I signed up for
this dating app
11
00:00:35,769 --> 00:00:37,271
called "Outta My League."
12
00:00:38,038 --> 00:00:39,573
I thought you and Ivy
had something going on?
13
00:00:39,707 --> 00:00:42,142
Yeah, we do,
we got a podcast going on.
14
00:00:42,143 --> 00:00:45,045
See, Ivy, she's cool,
but I need somebody
15
00:00:45,179 --> 00:00:47,980
with less baggage, someone
with a fresh point of view
16
00:00:47,981 --> 00:00:49,483
so I can go
out to the disco
17
00:00:49,583 --> 00:00:51,484
and get my groove on.
18
00:00:51,485 --> 00:00:54,255
Well, I hope you have
a time machine because, uh,
19
00:00:54,355 --> 00:00:56,224
discos are
not a thing anymore.
20
00:00:56,324 --> 00:00:57,491
(laughs)
21
00:01:01,995 --> 00:01:03,931
Well, I'm going
wherever the kids go today
22
00:01:04,031 --> 00:01:06,567
because tomorrow-- not promised.
23
00:01:06,667 --> 00:01:07,901
Who died?
24
00:01:08,035 --> 00:01:09,869
My best friend Leon, man.
25
00:01:09,870 --> 00:01:11,405
Uncle Leon died?
Yeah.
26
00:01:11,505 --> 00:01:13,241
He was all alone,
had no wife,
27
00:01:13,374 --> 00:01:15,375
no girlfriends,
no side-pieces.
28
00:01:15,376 --> 00:01:16,877
No side-pieces?!
29
00:01:16,977 --> 00:01:18,779
No nothing.
30
00:01:18,879 --> 00:01:21,182
And I ain't going out like that.
31
00:01:22,049 --> 00:01:24,152
I'm so sorry to hear that, Dad.
32
00:01:24,252 --> 00:01:25,718
He was your ride-or-die.
That guy loved you.
33
00:01:25,719 --> 00:01:28,356
You know, when I used to
get mad and bad-mouth you,
34
00:01:28,456 --> 00:01:31,058
he'd be like, "Boy, you better
be glad you got a daddy.
35
00:01:31,159 --> 00:01:32,360
"I don't have a daddy.
36
00:01:32,460 --> 00:01:33,627
"My mama was my daddy.
37
00:01:33,727 --> 00:01:35,496
That's why she had
that mustache."
38
00:01:36,264 --> 00:01:38,599
That's funny,
because when I'd bad-mouth you,
39
00:01:38,699 --> 00:01:42,470
he'd say, "D, the boy
just needs his ass beat."
40
00:01:43,471 --> 00:01:45,773
Ah, he was not on my side.
41
00:01:46,874 --> 00:01:48,476
Dad, um,
42
00:01:48,609 --> 00:01:49,843
you sure you're okay?
43
00:01:49,943 --> 00:01:51,779
I'm fine, look.
44
00:01:53,147 --> 00:01:54,648
Never better.
45
00:01:55,583 --> 00:01:56,884
Well, you certainly
look, uh...
46
00:01:56,984 --> 00:01:57,951
Yeah, younger.
47
00:01:58,085 --> 00:01:59,620
That's definitely a word.
48
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,022
Uh, "insane" is also a word.
49
00:02:03,457 --> 00:02:04,724
Oh, yeah.
50
00:02:04,725 --> 00:02:06,194
(laughs)
51
00:02:06,294 --> 00:02:07,394
You got a new phone?
52
00:02:07,395 --> 00:02:08,829
Uh, yeah, yeah.
53
00:02:08,962 --> 00:02:10,498
Did it come with that?
54
00:02:11,899 --> 00:02:13,233
Come with what?
55
00:02:13,234 --> 00:02:14,601
Uh, the-the unlimited data?
56
00:02:14,602 --> 00:02:16,604
Yeah, the dating app
is installed right on it.

00:02:18,506 --> 00:02:20,007

Oh, wow.

00:02:20,140 --> 00:02:23,143

Your dad just needs
64
00:02:32,753 --> 00:02:34,455
time to process his grief.
65
00:02:34,555 --> 00:02:36,757
Yeah, that's the problem,
I don't think he knows
66
00:02:36,857 --> 00:02:37,725
how to do that.
67
00:02:37,825 --> 00:02:39,560
Well, I mean, dealing with grief
68
00:02:39,660 --> 00:02:41,061
is essential
to his mental health.
69
00:02:41,161 --> 00:02:43,263
When was the last time
you saw your dad cry?
70
00:02:43,264 --> 00:02:44,598
Mm, never.
71
00:02:44,698 --> 00:02:46,098
Yeah, he's old-school.
72
00:02:46,099 --> 00:02:47,601
He and Leon came up
in the streets.
73
00:02:47,701 --> 00:02:49,437
Back then, if you cried,
Leon would be like,
74
00:02:49,537 --> 00:02:50,804
"You better keep them tears in,
75
00:02:50,904 --> 00:02:53,006
and get that prostate cancer
like a man."
76
00:02:54,642 --> 00:02:56,910
Hey, what up, Reedy Reed?
77
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,383
What in the Al Sharpton--?
78
00:03:06,987 --> 00:03:08,155
What is that
on your--?
79
00:03:08,256 --> 00:03:10,391
Ix-nay on the ig-way.
80
00:03:10,524 --> 00:03:12,760
I was just at the boxing gym,
81
00:03:12,860 --> 00:03:14,695
practicing my bob and weave.
82
00:03:14,795 --> 00:03:17,297
Oh, he got the
"weave" part down.
83
00:03:17,298 --> 00:03:20,401
Uh, so you're boxing now?
84
00:03:20,534 --> 00:03:22,403
Yeah, you know what they say.
85
00:03:22,536 --> 00:03:24,136
Death can't hit a moving target.
86
00:03:24,137 --> 00:03:25,373
Now you see me.
(exhales)
87
00:03:25,473 --> 00:03:26,340
Now you don't.
88
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:27,875
Bam! Take that, death.
89
00:03:28,008 --> 00:03:29,510
(laughs)
90
00:03:29,610 --> 00:03:31,177
And speaking of moving,
91
00:03:31,178 --> 00:03:32,812
let's get to this podcast.
92
00:03:32,813 --> 00:03:34,415
'Cause I want
to drop some knowledge
93
00:03:34,515 --> 00:03:37,618
on how I've tapped
into the fountain of youth.
94
00:03:37,718 --> 00:03:39,253
See what I'm talking about?
95
00:03:39,387 --> 00:03:41,422
All right, well, just give him
some time, it'll go away.
96
00:03:41,555 --> 00:03:42,822
I don't know,
right now it looks like
97
00:03:42,823 --> 00:03:44,592
it's hair to stay.
98
00:03:45,426 --> 00:03:46,493
You say something?
Hmm?
99
00:03:46,494 --> 00:03:47,561
No, nothing.
100
00:03:48,228 --> 00:03:51,265
Just don't say anything
about the doo.
101
00:03:51,399 --> 00:03:53,333
Do what?
Do-- you're doing a great job
102
00:03:53,334 --> 00:03:54,968
at the podcast, Dad.
103
00:03:55,403 --> 00:03:58,071
Yeah, yeah,
our-our numbers are up.
104
00:03:58,171 --> 00:03:59,573
Lots of things to plug.
105
00:03:59,707 --> 00:04:00,941
Excuse me? Say something?
106
00:04:04,412 --> 00:04:06,914
Okay, party people.
107
00:04:07,047 --> 00:04:09,517
Today's episode,
we gonna talk about
108
00:04:09,617 --> 00:04:11,619
dipping into
the fountain of youth
109
00:04:11,719 --> 00:04:14,154
so you can dip
in them honey dips.
110
00:04:14,254 --> 00:04:15,489
(laughs)
111
00:04:15,589 --> 00:04:17,425
And guess what, y'all?
112
00:04:17,525 --> 00:04:19,427
Your boy got
a hot date tonight.
113
00:04:19,527 --> 00:04:21,528
Lola is her name.
114
00:04:21,529 --> 00:04:23,597
(laughs)
115
00:04:23,731 --> 00:04:25,666
And I don't want to brag,
116
00:04:25,766 --> 00:04:27,301
but she's a human.
117
00:04:28,302 --> 00:04:29,637
Well, listen up, y'all.
118
00:04:29,737 --> 00:04:31,203
Who out there thinks Poppa gonna
119
00:04:31,204 --> 00:04:34,007
bust the slob on the first date?
120
00:04:34,107 --> 00:04:35,643
We'll take some calls
121
00:04:35,776 --> 00:04:37,243
after this sponsor.
122
00:04:37,244 --> 00:04:39,211
"Bust the slob"?
123
00:04:39,212 --> 00:04:40,548
Yeah.
124
00:04:40,648 --> 00:04:42,650
What does that even mean?
125
00:04:42,783 --> 00:04:44,217
Hey, if you don't know,
126
00:04:44,318 --> 00:04:46,286
you better ask somebody.
127
00:04:47,220 --> 00:04:48,054
Listen.
128
00:04:48,055 --> 00:04:49,557
I'm gonna go get a juicey box.
129
00:04:49,657 --> 00:04:50,991
You want one?
130
00:04:52,460 --> 00:04:54,495
JUNIOR:
My dad is still in denial
131
00:04:54,628 --> 00:04:55,895
about Leon passing.
132
00:04:55,896 --> 00:04:57,331
How are you feeling?
133
00:04:57,431 --> 00:04:59,433
You were pretty close
with Leon too, right?
134
00:04:59,533 --> 00:05:01,901
Yeah, I mean, he taught me
how to play basketball,
135
00:05:01,902 --> 00:05:03,571
how to ride a bike,
136
00:05:03,671 --> 00:05:05,005
tie my shoes.
137
00:05:05,105 --> 00:05:06,807
All the stuff my dad
was supposed to teach me.
138
00:05:06,907 --> 00:05:08,608
I know how important
he was to you.
139
00:05:08,609 --> 00:05:10,143
Have you cried
about it?
140
00:05:10,243 --> 00:05:11,345
Nah.
141
00:05:11,445 --> 00:05:12,680
Crying's not gonna
bring him back.
142
00:05:12,780 --> 00:05:14,113
We're all gonna die one day.
143
00:05:14,114 --> 00:05:15,516
I'm gonna die.
144
00:05:15,616 --> 00:05:16,950
You're gonna die.
145
00:05:17,050 --> 00:05:18,386
Your mother's gonna die.
146
00:05:19,219 --> 00:05:20,388
Your father's gonna die.
147
00:05:20,488 --> 00:05:21,655
Your aunts and uncles
are gonna die.
148
00:05:21,755 --> 00:05:22,923
Cousins! Nephews!
149
00:05:23,023 --> 00:05:24,458
All right! Okay!
150
00:05:25,225 --> 00:05:29,162
All I'm saying is don't hold
everything in like your father.
151
00:05:29,296 --> 00:05:32,199
There's no shame
in crying.
152
00:05:32,966 --> 00:05:34,935
It's okay, baby, let it out.
153
00:05:35,035 --> 00:05:37,037
Yeah?
Yeah.
154
00:05:37,871 --> 00:05:39,507
(voice breaking):
Okay, um...
155
00:05:39,607 --> 00:05:41,008
(inhales deeply)
156
00:05:41,108 --> 00:05:43,644
Yeah, Leon was
a great guy, yeah.
157
00:05:43,744 --> 00:05:45,679
I remember one time, he said,
158
00:05:45,779 --> 00:05:47,481
um...
159
00:05:47,581 --> 00:05:49,281
He was, like, um...
160
00:05:49,282 --> 00:05:50,818
when he said, uh...
161
00:05:50,918 --> 00:05:52,452
(whimpers)
162
00:05:52,453 --> 00:05:54,054
He said that he was gonna--
163
00:05:54,187 --> 00:05:55,889
Oh, my God, I can't cry!
164
00:05:56,890 --> 00:05:58,859
(Poppa laughing)
165
00:05:58,959 --> 00:06:00,761
O-M-G!
166
00:06:00,861 --> 00:06:02,863
You are so funny.
167
00:06:02,996 --> 00:06:04,532
S-T-D!
168
00:06:04,665 --> 00:06:05,998
You're funny, too.
169
00:06:05,999 --> 00:06:08,068
(laughing):
Stop!
170
00:06:08,201 --> 00:06:10,503
Stop, you're killing me.
171
00:06:10,504 --> 00:06:12,339
Okay, wait, can you be serious?
172
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,008
For one second, please?
Okay, mm-hmm.
173
00:06:15,943 --> 00:06:17,745
Do you have any kids?
174
00:06:17,845 --> 00:06:20,581
(clears throat)
No, uh...
175
00:06:21,782 --> 00:06:24,918
I'm young and single,
ready to mingle,
176
00:06:25,018 --> 00:06:28,556
and I want to eat you up
like a bag of Pringles.
177
00:06:30,290 --> 00:06:32,660
Okay, Mr. Mysterious.
178
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:34,094
How old are you?
179
00:06:34,194 --> 00:06:36,229
Let's just say
I'm a hair over 40.
180
00:06:36,363 --> 00:06:38,899
And I buy
my skinny jeans
181
00:06:38,999 --> 00:06:40,434
at the Baby Gap.
(laughs)
182
00:06:40,534 --> 00:06:42,703
(laughing)
183
00:06:42,803 --> 00:06:44,137
Ah, they're so tight!
184
00:06:44,237 --> 00:06:46,039
They're so tight.
185
00:06:46,874 --> 00:06:48,442
I mean...
186
00:06:48,576 --> 00:06:50,677
you are just so funny.
187
00:06:50,678 --> 00:06:52,344
And stylish.
188
00:06:52,345 --> 00:06:53,680
With the sexy hair.
189
00:06:53,681 --> 00:06:55,248
(laughs)
190
00:06:55,382 --> 00:06:57,084
(smooches)
191
00:06:58,586 --> 00:07:00,420
I mean...
192
00:07:00,521 --> 00:07:02,188
I can't with you.
193
00:07:02,189 --> 00:07:03,423
I can't.
194
00:07:03,524 --> 00:07:06,494
Well, I certainly could
with you.
195
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:08,996
Mm.
196
00:07:09,096 --> 00:07:11,465
Okay, cutie with the bootie,
it's your turn.
197
00:07:11,599 --> 00:07:14,233
Okay.
Tell Damey a little about you.
198
00:07:14,234 --> 00:07:16,369
Well, Damey,
199
00:07:16,470 --> 00:07:19,139
I like swimming.
200
00:07:19,272 --> 00:07:21,541
And skydiving. Ooh!
201
00:07:21,542 --> 00:07:23,075
And helicopters.
(gasps)
202
00:07:23,076 --> 00:07:25,913
I love riding in a convertible
with the top back.
203
00:07:26,013 --> 00:07:27,481
Yes!
204
00:07:27,581 --> 00:07:29,549
(both whoop)
205
00:07:29,550 --> 00:07:31,284
(laughing)
206
00:07:32,152 --> 00:07:33,821
Sounds like you like
to do a lot of stuff
207
00:07:33,921 --> 00:07:35,556
to mess a brother's hair up.
208
00:07:35,656 --> 00:07:37,357
(both laugh)
209
00:07:39,827 --> 00:07:41,995
Well, um...
210
00:07:49,436 --> 00:07:52,339
(both moan, laugh)
211
00:07:56,510 --> 00:07:57,578
Okay, I'm really
worried about my dad now.
212
00:07:57,678 --> 00:07:58,812
I think it's getting worse.
213
00:07:58,912 --> 00:07:59,747
This morning,
he posted this video
214
00:07:59,847 --> 00:08:00,748
of him twerking.

able to cry yet?
221
00:08:15,996 --> 00:08:17,264
No.
222
00:08:17,364 --> 00:08:18,966
I mean, I keep getting
that knot in my throat,
223
00:08:19,066 --> 00:08:20,200
but then it just goes away.
224
00:08:20,300 --> 00:08:21,802
Okay, Junior.
225
00:08:21,935 --> 00:08:25,105
If you're suddenly unable to
cry at traumatic life events,
226
00:08:25,238 --> 00:08:26,940
that's unhealthy.
227
00:08:27,074 --> 00:08:30,043
You need to find something to
trigger an emotional release.
228
00:08:30,143 --> 00:08:32,912
Is there a song that
makes you teary?
229
00:08:32,913 --> 00:08:34,447
Yeah, but it's in Korean
230
00:08:34,548 --> 00:08:36,183
and I don't really
understand the words.
231
00:08:36,283 --> 00:08:37,450
Well, don't stress
about it.
232
00:08:37,551 --> 00:08:38,619
We'll figure it out.
233
00:08:38,752 --> 00:08:40,621
Yeah, and don't
worry about Poppa.
234
00:08:40,721 --> 00:08:43,923
He's strong. I'm sure
he's making progress already.
235
00:08:43,924 --> 00:08:45,993
(laughs)
236
00:08:51,298 --> 00:08:52,332
What are you doing?
237
00:08:52,432 --> 00:08:53,967
Oh... hey.
238
00:08:54,101 --> 00:08:55,703
Lola loved my last outfit,
239
00:08:55,803 --> 00:08:57,805
so I thought I'd borrow
one of your hot shirts
240
00:08:57,905 --> 00:09:00,641
to match my new
skinny jeans.
241
00:09:00,774 --> 00:09:02,175
This one's cute, right?
242
00:09:02,309 --> 00:09:03,844
Yeah, on Nina. It's hers.
243
00:09:03,977 --> 00:09:06,880
Oh, that's why
my belly button's out.
244
00:09:06,980 --> 00:09:09,717
'Cause I was thinking about
putting an earring in there.
245
00:09:09,817 --> 00:09:11,351
Young guys do that, right?
246
00:09:11,451 --> 00:09:13,020
Some guys.
247
00:09:14,822 --> 00:09:16,289
Dad, I'm getting
a little worried here, you know?
248
00:09:16,389 --> 00:09:18,358
Oh, you don't have
to be worried, son.
249
00:09:18,491 --> 00:09:20,894
I just don't want
to be alone anymore.
250
00:09:20,994 --> 00:09:23,597
And you never know when that
grim reaper's gonna get you.
251
00:09:23,697 --> 00:09:26,133
So I got to stay
two steps ahead of him.
252
00:09:26,233 --> 00:09:28,267
And you think the grim reaper
won't recognize you
253
00:09:28,268 --> 00:09:30,403
in a crop top and a toupee?
254
00:09:31,304 --> 00:09:32,606
Exactly.
255
00:09:32,706 --> 00:09:34,541
'Cause he's looking
for an old, bald guy
256
00:09:34,675 --> 00:09:36,009
with some baggy
clothes on.
257
00:09:36,143 --> 00:09:37,177
All right, just...
258
00:09:37,310 --> 00:09:39,079
just slow your roll, okay?
259
00:09:39,179 --> 00:09:40,513
Lola's my last shot
260
00:09:40,614 --> 00:09:42,282
at happily ever after.
Mm.
261
00:09:42,382 --> 00:09:45,385
So I think I'm gonna ask her
to move in with me, son.
262
00:09:45,485 --> 00:09:47,787
Move in with you?! So soon?
Yeah!
263
00:09:47,788 --> 00:09:49,089
Oh, she's perfect!
264
00:09:49,189 --> 00:09:50,390
She wants kids.
265
00:09:50,490 --> 00:09:52,092
She'll be your sexy
little stepmom.
266
00:09:52,192 --> 00:09:54,094
I'm older than her.
267
00:09:54,194 --> 00:09:56,196
Age is nothing but a number.
268
00:09:56,296 --> 00:09:58,098
Yeah, in your case, 61.
269
00:09:58,198 --> 00:09:59,532
Nah, don't hate the playa.
270
00:09:59,667 --> 00:10:01,902
Look, don't you think
this thing is moving
271
00:10:02,035 --> 00:10:04,004
like, a little too fast, right?
272
00:10:04,104 --> 00:10:05,372
Like, what is this really about?
273
00:10:05,472 --> 00:10:06,573
Is the sex that good?
274
00:10:06,707 --> 00:10:08,208
It's not about sex.
275
00:10:08,308 --> 00:10:10,377
It's about having
companionship.
276
00:10:10,477 --> 00:10:12,344
Someone to walk
through life with.
277
00:10:12,345 --> 00:10:14,047
So you're afraid
you're gonna be bad in bed?
278
00:10:14,181 --> 00:10:15,248
Yes.
279
00:10:16,116 --> 00:10:18,819
Besides, I told myself
280
00:10:18,919 --> 00:10:21,588
the next woman I sleep with,
that's gonna be my wife.
281
00:10:21,689 --> 00:10:23,190
Wait, you're gonna marry her?!
282
00:10:23,924 --> 00:10:26,193
You know, I didn't think
about that, but...
283
00:10:26,293 --> 00:10:27,560
thanks for your
blessing, son.
284
00:10:27,661 --> 00:10:28,896
No, no, no, no.
I'm gonna go get a ring.
285
00:10:28,996 --> 00:10:30,764
No, I think
you misunderstood me, I--
286
00:10:30,898 --> 00:10:32,565
I wasn't blessing that!
287
00:10:32,666 --> 00:10:35,435
He's gonna marry Lola
and have kids.
288
00:10:35,568 --> 00:10:37,670
I don't want to be
a grand-brother.
289
00:10:37,671 --> 00:10:38,872
Marry her?
290
00:10:38,972 --> 00:10:41,173
Oh, this fool
done lost his damn mind!
291
00:10:41,174 --> 00:10:42,810
That-that is
very high-pitched.
292
00:10:42,910 --> 00:10:45,211
What does that even mean?
What are you talking about?
293
00:10:45,212 --> 00:10:47,915
You want some peanut butter
with that jelly?
294
00:10:48,682 --> 00:10:50,549
I'm not jealous, Nina, okay?
295
00:10:50,550 --> 00:10:53,420
Poppa is still in shock
over this loss,
296
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,055
and he's not gonna
be able to heal
297
00:10:55,155 --> 00:10:57,124
if he doesn't confront
and grieve this.
298
00:10:57,224 --> 00:10:58,691
You mean cry?
IVY: Yes.
299
00:10:58,692 --> 00:11:00,860
I like to think of every tear
300
00:11:00,861 --> 00:11:03,130
as a drop of pain
leaving the body.
301
00:11:03,230 --> 00:11:05,298
Well, we can't let my dad
marry this stranger.
302
00:11:05,432 --> 00:11:07,634
Yeah. Who's even
gonna plan the wedding?
303
00:11:09,036 --> 00:11:12,072
Not that I would even consider
taking that job.
304
00:11:12,172 --> 00:11:13,606
There's not gonna be
a wedding, traitor.
305
00:11:13,707 --> 00:11:14,975
Oh.
306
00:11:15,108 --> 00:11:18,478
I mean, there's not gonna be
a wedding, friend.
307
00:11:18,611 --> 00:11:20,480
Yeah, you're damn right
there isn't,
308
00:11:20,580 --> 00:11:23,215
because I'm giving my dad
his emotional catharsis.
309
00:11:23,216 --> 00:11:25,485
I got a secret weapon.
Old Yeller.
310
00:11:25,618 --> 00:11:26,787
(gasps) Smokey Robinson?
311
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:28,587
Ooh! What?
JUNIOR: No.
312
00:11:28,588 --> 00:11:30,089
Old Yeller the movie.
313
00:11:30,090 --> 00:11:32,325
Oh, yeah. Oh.
314
00:11:33,126 --> 00:11:34,461
I love that movie.
315
00:11:34,594 --> 00:11:36,263
I know.
It's so good.
316
00:11:36,363 --> 00:11:38,064
Hey, that's a great idea
317
00:11:38,065 --> 00:11:39,598
because you could get a cry
out of that, too.
318
00:11:39,599 --> 00:11:42,335
I mean, if you can't cry
at Old Yeller...
319
00:11:42,435 --> 00:11:44,838
BOTH:
You're dead inside.
320
00:11:44,938 --> 00:11:47,007

322
00:11:58,518 --> 00:12:00,487
Dog dead yet?
323
00:12:01,454 --> 00:12:03,356
Well, circle of life, huh?
324
00:12:04,157 --> 00:12:06,193
Poppa, are you okay?
325
00:12:06,293 --> 00:12:07,694
Yeah, why?
326
00:12:07,795 --> 00:12:11,498
You don't seem okay. You know,
it's all right to be sad.
327
00:12:11,598 --> 00:12:12,665
(Poppa chuckles)
328
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,401
(grunts)
329
00:12:14,501 --> 00:12:15,601
I'm not sad,
330
00:12:15,602 --> 00:12:17,603
you're sad.
331
00:12:17,604 --> 00:12:20,908
Poppa just needs a haircut.
332
00:12:24,111 --> 00:12:27,780
You know baldness
is hereditary, right, Dad?
333
00:12:27,781 --> 00:12:28,948
NINA:
All right.
334
00:12:28,949 --> 00:12:30,117
Okay, kids, come on.
335
00:12:30,217 --> 00:12:31,418
Go get ready for bed.
336
00:12:33,620 --> 00:12:34,888
(sighs)
337
00:12:35,923 --> 00:12:39,292
I for sure thought Old Yeller
would make you cry.
338
00:12:39,392 --> 00:12:40,493
I know. I...
339
00:12:40,593 --> 00:12:42,628
just kept hearing

Hey.
352

Did you see how choked up
he got when Maya
353
00:13:21,301 --> 00:13:23,003
touched his hand?
Maybe if we got him
354
00:13:23,103 --> 00:13:26,539
to read a sad book at Maya's
school, that might break him.
355

Just hear me out,
just hear me out.

What if we have Poppa
read the book
360
00:13:39,552 --> 00:13:41,989
at Maya's school
instead of me.
361
00:13:49,229 --> 00:13:52,299
Children, we have
a very special visitor today.
362
00:13:52,399 --> 00:13:55,668
Unfortunately, Mr. Fulton Jr.
has laryngitis.
363
00:13:55,768 --> 00:13:58,171
(strained whispering): Yeah. I
would love to read to your kids,
364
00:13:58,271 --> 00:14:01,208
but my words taste
like blood right now.
365
00:14:01,308 --> 00:14:04,211
And so, his dad has
graciously agreed
366
00:14:04,311 --> 00:14:06,779
to read a section
from Charlotte's Web.
367
00:14:08,815 --> 00:14:11,518
Well, I want to thank
368
00:14:11,618 --> 00:14:13,519
all of you children
for allowing me
369
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:14,521
to do this reading.
370
00:14:14,621 --> 00:14:16,256
Maya, the book, please.
371
00:14:17,124 --> 00:14:19,226
If you have a cell phone,
372
00:14:19,326 --> 00:14:20,793
please put it on silent.
373
00:14:20,894 --> 00:14:22,295
Oh, wow.
374
00:14:22,429 --> 00:14:24,898
Everybody has one.
All right. Well...
375
00:14:24,998 --> 00:14:26,365
let's sit back
376
00:14:26,366 --> 00:14:28,168
and enjoy.
377
00:14:30,137 --> 00:14:33,273
"The children grabbed each other
by the hand
378
00:14:33,373 --> 00:14:35,976
"and danced off
in the direction
379
00:14:36,109 --> 00:14:37,810
"of the merry-go-round.
380
00:14:37,945 --> 00:14:40,613
"'You have been my friend,'
replied Charlotte."
381
00:14:40,747 --> 00:14:41,915
(groans)
382
00:14:42,015 --> 00:14:45,953
"'That in itself
is a tremendous thing.
383
00:14:46,786 --> 00:14:48,655
(choking up):
"After all...
384
00:14:49,957 --> 00:14:52,025
"what is a life anyway?
385
00:14:52,125 --> 00:14:54,327
We, uh..." (whimpers)
It's okay, Poppa.
386
00:14:54,427 --> 00:14:56,595
Take your time. Let it out.
387
00:14:56,596 --> 00:14:58,798
(crying)
388
00:14:58,932 --> 00:15:01,334
You kids
don't understand.
389
00:15:02,469 --> 00:15:06,206
Charlotte was Wilbur's day one.
He's crying.
390
00:15:06,306 --> 00:15:10,843
They used to wear
matching Kangol hats
391
00:15:10,978 --> 00:15:13,480
and Adidas
tracksuits.
392
00:15:13,580 --> 00:15:14,681
(crying)
393
00:15:14,781 --> 00:15:17,417
And then when Leon-- I mean,
394
00:15:17,517 --> 00:15:19,252
when Charlotte...
395
00:15:20,287 --> 00:15:22,455
...started drinking out
of the spiked water trough,
396
00:15:22,555 --> 00:15:25,692
it was Wilbur
that put him in rehab.
397
00:15:27,660 --> 00:15:29,229
And he stayed there
with him
398
00:15:29,329 --> 00:15:30,897
the whole time.
399
00:15:36,869 --> 00:15:39,206
(Junior wailing)
400
00:15:43,643 --> 00:15:45,712
(kids laughing)
401
00:15:48,148 --> 00:15:51,184
I've never seen you
cry before, Dad.
402
00:15:52,119 --> 00:15:55,222
I never heard you
cry before, son.
403
00:15:56,856 --> 00:15:58,591
Uncle Leon was wrong.
404
00:15:58,691 --> 00:16:00,727
Crying's for everyone!
405
00:16:02,162 --> 00:16:04,897
Ew, ew, ew, ew,
ew, ew, ew, ew, ew.
406
00:16:06,299 --> 00:16:07,500
(crying continues)
407
00:16:08,735 --> 00:16:10,537
Lola.
Yeah.
408
00:16:12,439 --> 00:16:13,373
This has been
409
00:16:13,473 --> 00:16:15,642
the most amazing
410
00:16:15,742 --> 00:16:17,143
week of my life.
411
00:16:17,144 --> 00:16:19,112
Mine, too.
But...
412
00:16:19,212 --> 00:16:21,581
(groans) I haven't been
straight up with you,
413
00:16:21,714 --> 00:16:24,451
and I want to be honest.
414
00:16:24,551 --> 00:16:27,220
Okay, yeah.
I want you to be honest.
415
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:28,555
I love honesty.
416
00:16:28,655 --> 00:16:30,723
Okay, um...
417
00:16:32,025 --> 00:16:33,659
I just lost my best friend,
418
00:16:33,660 --> 00:16:35,327
and I was
419
00:16:35,328 --> 00:16:37,564
trying to live life
to the fullest.
420
00:16:37,664 --> 00:16:38,665
Aw...
421
00:16:38,765 --> 00:16:41,101
You poor thing.
422
00:16:41,234 --> 00:16:42,701
Truth is, I have kids.
423
00:16:42,702 --> 00:16:45,672
I have grandchildren.
424
00:16:45,772 --> 00:16:49,142
I sleep with a CPAP.
I pee, like, five times a night.
425
00:16:50,177 --> 00:16:52,612
These earrings,
they're not real.
426
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,514
Hmm?
(laughs)
427
00:16:55,515 --> 00:16:57,950
Neither are the nipple rings.
428
00:17:01,354 --> 00:17:04,356
I love that you're being
so vulnerable.
429
00:17:04,357 --> 00:17:07,427
And I don't care
about any of that stuff.
430
00:17:08,595 --> 00:17:09,796
Trust me,
431
00:17:09,929 --> 00:17:12,832
I am not that shallow.
432
00:17:13,766 --> 00:17:15,268
That's so beautiful.
433
00:17:15,368 --> 00:17:17,470
Because...
434
00:17:18,438 --> 00:17:20,773
...this is who I truly am.
435
00:17:29,182 --> 00:17:32,819
What in the Steve Harvey?
I'm out, grandpa.
436
00:17:36,956 --> 00:17:38,658
(door opens, slams shut)
437
00:17:49,336 --> 00:17:52,070
Please tell me you're not
regressing back to the '80s.
438
00:17:52,071 --> 00:17:55,508
Don't worry,
I'm back to my old self.
439
00:17:55,642 --> 00:17:58,744
I'm wearing this
in honor of my boy Leon.
440
00:17:58,745 --> 00:18:00,547
I get it.
441
00:18:01,314 --> 00:18:03,916
You know, it's, um,
442
00:18:04,016 --> 00:18:06,486
very common when you lose
someone in your circle
443
00:18:06,619 --> 00:18:08,955
to start thinking about
your own mortality.
444
00:18:09,055 --> 00:18:11,191
Yeah. Makes you feel like
445
00:18:11,291 --> 00:18:13,326
that clock is ticking.
Exactly.
446
00:18:13,426 --> 00:18:15,128
Well...
447
00:18:15,228 --> 00:18:17,129
your clock may
be ticking, but
448
00:18:17,130 --> 00:18:20,432
like a fine wine,
you get better with time.
449
00:18:20,433 --> 00:18:23,069
I like your rhyme, Clementine.
450
00:18:24,204 --> 00:18:27,106
I'm glad you were able
to grieve your friend.
451
00:18:29,476 --> 00:18:30,710
Thank you.
452
00:18:32,145 --> 00:18:33,612
Hey, what's happening, peeps?
453
00:18:33,613 --> 00:18:37,783
Today's episode is dedicated
to my late friend Leon,
454
00:18:37,784 --> 00:18:40,653
who is now gone
to the great beyond.
455
00:18:40,753 --> 00:18:43,690
There would be no me
if it wasn't for my G.
456
00:18:43,790 --> 00:18:46,559
So, Leon, R.I.P.
457
00:18:46,693 --> 00:18:49,329
I want to share
a story with y'all,
458
00:18:49,429 --> 00:18:52,365
so y'all can know Leon
like I knew Leon.
459
00:18:53,433 --> 00:18:55,034
One time, when we was little,
460
00:18:55,168 --> 00:18:58,637
we were kids, we were
graffiti bombing subway trains.
461
00:18:58,638 --> 00:19:01,541
I was out there spraying.
(imitates spray can) "Sweet D."
462
00:19:01,641 --> 00:19:03,809
That was my name. Sweet D.
(laughs)
463
00:19:03,810 --> 00:19:05,044
(imitates spray can)
464
00:19:05,178 --> 00:19:07,214
And then, I had
an orthopedic shoe,
465
00:19:07,314 --> 00:19:08,715
and I slipped out,
it gave out,
466
00:19:08,815 --> 00:19:11,551
and I fell on the track,
I hit my head.
467
00:19:11,651 --> 00:19:13,352
I was knocked out,
468
00:19:13,353 --> 00:19:14,987
and all my friends ran.
469
00:19:15,087 --> 00:19:18,591
Everybody took off running.
(whooshing) Except Leon.
470
00:19:19,726 --> 00:19:21,660
He lifted me
onto that platform
471
00:19:21,661 --> 00:19:23,530
right before the train
could hit me.
472
00:19:24,397 --> 00:19:28,335
I swear, I would not be here
if it wasn't for him.
473
00:19:30,437 --> 00:19:32,272
You know...
474
00:19:32,405 --> 00:19:33,872
funny thing about me and Leon,
475
00:19:33,873 --> 00:19:36,509
is we never told each other
we loved each other.
476
00:19:37,244 --> 00:19:39,979
It was just something
we understood.
477
00:19:42,114 --> 00:19:44,684
Now, I kind of wish
I would've done it.
478
00:19:44,784 --> 00:19:46,319
So, I'm-a say it.
479
00:19:47,254 --> 00:19:49,389
I love you, Leon.
480
00:19:53,526 --> 00:19:55,561
