Time to get up.
Hey.
Hmm. Mm, okay.
Are you up?
Yeah.
Okay.
-Good?
-Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Okay.
Oh, shut up!
You kidding!
This isn't just
funny right now.
Stop f*ck' me!
Come on!
Oh, your skirt's...
Grandma!
It's so short.
Here you go.
I don't think I need it.
Well, just in case.
-Okay.
-All right.
I love you.
Hey, Hailey,
why is your mom so old?
-Yeah, where is your mom?
-Mm-hmm.
Like, she didn't want you?
Hey, fat a*s, can you hear us?
Borrow your mom's hearing aid!
Stop!
Ellen.
I know. I, uh...
Hi.
I had car trouble.
Mm, yeah.
-Yep.
-Okay.
I don't wanna be an as*h*le,
but that's not my problem.
It's an old car, dude.
You need to find a reliable car
to get you here on time,
or some other way to
get you here on time.
On time. Got it.
Glad you got it.
Loud and clear.
I've got your class
photo proofs here.
Take these to your parents,
and if they wanna buy
copies, there's a form inside.
I look so fat.
No, you're not.
I look so ugly.
Hey, I need to
return this record.
Do you have your receipt?
Why do you need
to see my receipt?
All right, you know what?
Without your receipt--
This is your bag.
Cool.
So, without a receipt, I can
just give you store credit.
I bought it here yesterday,
and that boy down
there rung me out.
Cool.
So you can step aside, sir.
-No, no, no, no, no.
-Excuse you.
You're gonna
give me my money back
-right now!
-I can help you, sir.
Can we get a manager
up here please?
Hey, step aside, dude,
step aside.
I'm so tired of
dealing with this b*tch.
What did you say?
Get the f*ck out of here,
you f*cking redneck
son of a b*tch!
You get the f*ck out of here!
Get the f*ck out of here
and don't ever come back!
You hear me?
Jesus!
Ellen!
Coming.
Hailey?
Hailey?
Hailey?
You didn't tell me you got
your school pictures today.
Don't go through my backpack.
Sweetheart, I wish you wouldn't
do this to yourself.
Okay, this might sting a bit.
You don't want it to get
infected.
Ow.
- What the f*ck, Ellen?
- What? He called Dave "boy".
Did Dave hear that?
What the f*ck does it matter?
We-- we have the right to
refuse service to anyone.
I refuse to serve this as*h*le.
Ellen, I have the right
to refuse service.
All you need to do is
you just take their money
and you give them
what they bought, that's it.
f*ck off, Barry.
f*ck off? Really?
You're telling me to f*ck off?
Yeah, I mean...
Get the f*ck out of here!
You're done.
Okay, thank you so much.
You're welcome!
You're welcome so much!
Eat sh*t, Barry!
Jesus Christ!
You gotta get back
on your meds, Ellen!
Hey! Get the f*ck outta here!
f*ck you!
That's as*ault!
Just get out of the way!
What's wrong?
Uh, are you busy?
No.
Okay, um,
I was just wondering if
you could loan me some money.
What for?
Get my car fixed.
It broke down.
What's wrong with it?
I don't know.
It just wouldn't start.
How'd you get to work?
I took the bus.
Well, is that something
you can do for a while?
I don't know.
Do you not have the money
to lend me?
Well, I don't know.
Hailey got her
school pictures today,
so I need to buy those.
Okay.
Do you want one?
What do you mean do I want one?
Why would I want one?
I don't know!
I'll send you as
many as you want.
Did you tell her
that I don't want one?
Why would I tell her that?
I don't-- I don't know.
I don't know what
you tell her about me.
Well, I don't
tell her anything.
nOkay. All right. You know what?
Don't worry about it.
I'm not gonna ask you
for anything else anymore.
Ellen? Ellen.
Help me, someone!
Ellen. Ellen, wh--
Grandma?
Where are you?
Grandma?
Ellen?
Grandma!
Ellen? Is that you?
Grandma.
- Where'd you go?
- Where'd you go?
Grandma!
What's wrong?
I can't find any of them.
Who?
- Where are they?
- Where are they?
- I can't find--
- What's wrong?
-I can't find...
-What's wrong?
Lenny or...
Been dead a long time.
No, get away from me. Get away.
Come in the house!
Grandma. Grandma!
No! Grandma! Grandma!
Grandma! Somebody!
Hello?
Yeah.
What?
Hi, uh, I'm looking
for Verna Sharpe.
She's my mother.
Hey.
Hi, Inez.
Oh. Oh.
Hey. Is she all right?
She's awake and talkin'.
-Hi.
-Hey.
You okay?
Yeah, I'm good.
Good. Sure?
Yeah.
God, you're so big.
You're so tall.
Gotten so tall.
Uh, well, should we...
I'm actually gonna,
uh, stay out here.
You don't wanna see her?
I'm just gonna, uh, I'm
just gonna get a drink.
I'm gonna come with you.
Uh, she's in 120.
Okay.
Dr. Morris, dial 18...
Hi, Mama.
Hi, Mama.
Hey.
Hi.
You're here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
How you feeling?
Uh, I feel fine,
I'm just tired.
Want some water?
Well, sure. That'd be nice.
Okay.
Is Lenny here yet?
Well, you know, uh,
Lenny passed long time ago.
I know that.
Oh, remember that
time we went to Longview,
we went to the fair?
-Good God.
-You remember that?
Yes, I remember that.
Oh, Mama got so mad
at us for skipping church.
Oh, she sure could
piss a hard stream.
Oh my goodness,
I wanna go again.
Oh, I wanna go to
the fair again this year.
-Can we?
-Honey, uh...
Uh, they haven't had
that in a long time.
But I wanna play the game.
That game with the ba*ls
that go up the thing.
-Bowlin'?
-No.
The little ba*ls.
-Skee-Ball?
-Yes!
That game.
I wanna play-- I wanna
play that game.
I'm gonna go
talk to the doctor.
Thanks for comin'.
Mm-hmm.
I'm surprised
they called Ellen.
I didn't think she'd
come for love or money.
Well, maybe for money.
Oh, come on.
How you doin'?
Paging Dr. Bender.
Paging Dr. Bender
I'm okay.
She's gonna be okay.
She was askin' about Uncle Lenny
and Grandpa Walt.
Um...
Yeah, she's a little confused,
but she'll be all right.
How long will she be in here?
I don't know.
Hopefully not too long.
All right, you can call
if you need anything.
Bye.
What's wrong?
Nothin'. I'll be right in.
You might have to sit on
someone's lap and call him
mister!
Now, Miss Nancy say
she got up and run away.
f*ck you!
Steve Brook said he was
gonna talk to the army recruiter
about joining the navy.
- Army recruiter's for the army.
- Navy recruiter's for the navy.
Jesus Christ, boy.
You're not thinkin'
about joinin', are you?
I don't know. Maybe.
Absolutely not.
They pay for school
if you go for two years.
No.
I do not want you
to join the army.
Army will make
him a real man.
I do not want him
to go to the army.
This is just what
happens to women.
I need to go to the doctor.
No. No, of course not.
Turn around.
Stop talkin' about it.
Just-- a lot of girls don't
talk about these things.
How long will this last?
Oh, please, honey,
stop bawlin'.
You're being hysterical.
This is just silly.
Well, here you go.
I'm gonna be okay, Mom.
Oh, you're gonna be fine.
- Baby Andrew's with
- Grandma Ruth in heaven.
She'll teach him to go fishing.
Oh, yeah.
And how to cheat at cards.
Hmm, Bobby and I can
have another baby.
We can have a whole litter.
I want you to promise
me somethin'.
Can you do that for me?
What?
Don't have another one.
Why not?
I don't think you should.
Eat your soup.
Are those yours?
I used to listen to these
with my boyfriend Bobby.
Your grandmother,
she never liked him.
Took the door down,
so we wouldn't
have any privacy.
Are you hungry?
-Yes.
-Okay.
All right then, let's, uh,
find Grandma's keys.
Okay.
Hey.
I don't like Bobby.
He's a bad influence on
her, and I bet he drinks.
I stole a couple
of my dad's beers,
if you want some.
The next time he
keeps Ellen out late,
I'm gonna call the police.
My mama always said some women
just shouldn't have children.
If Ellen weren't
so irresponsible,
Baby Andrew might
not have come so early
and the doctors could've
done somethin' for him.
Don't have another one.
Why not?
I don't think you should.
Haley!
She never used to let
me watch stuff like this.
Really?
Yeah, she thought
it would corrupt me.
Is this new?
-The couch?
-Mm-hmm.
Think Grandpa picked it out.
Of course, he did.
Did you hate him?
Yeah.
Is that why me and Grandma
always had to come see you
at Christmas?
Yeah.
How come you haven't
come back till now?
I wasn't allowed back.
I mean, after he died.
Mm, I don't know.
Come on.
Late check-in?
Yeah, she overslept.
Sign this.
Okay.
Have a good day.
Is that Ellen Sharpe?
Do you remember me?
Mark Webb.
That's right.
How are you?
Oh, I'm-- yeah, I'm--
-All right?
-Yeah.
Um, I'm just, um,
dropping off my daughter.
I heard about your mom.
Um, how's she doin'?
She's gettin' better.
She's gettin' feistier.
Yeah, she always was.
Yep.
Yep.
Well, hey, listen,
if you need anything,
you just let me know, okay?
All right.
And I, uh, I hope we see a lot--
more of you--
-Yep.
-Yeah, going forward.
-All right.
-Yeah.
All right, gotta run.
Yeah, or walk, whatever.
Okay.
These dark spots here,
this is the damage caused
by your mother's stroke.
This is why she's having
some issues with her memory.
Sometimes when
this area is damaged,
patients can't form new memories
or they experience amnesia.
When the temporal lobe
is affected,
patients may have difficulty
distinguishing, you know,
between what's a memory
and what's reality.
Right.
Um--
she's also been
acting differently.
-Um--
-How's she been acting?
Sh-- she's been a little more...
She's been aggressive.
-Okay.
-You know?
You can see right here,
there's been a little damage
to Verna's prefrontal cortex.
Okay, that's the part of
the brain that controls
our emotions
and impulse control.
Okay.
Um, how long
before that can heal
or, you know, that can go away?
The symptoms might
diminish somewhat, you know,
as Verna gets stronger,
but given her age, Ellen,
I don't think we should
anticipate a full recovery.
Uh...
So--
okay, so, um,
what does that mean
going forward?
Well, does your
mother live alone?
My daughter lives with her.
I live in Austin.
Okay, uh, how old's your
daughter?
Fo-- 15.
In that case, you're either
gonna need an in-home
healthcare specialist
or Verna's gonna need
to go to a nursing facility.
Either way, Ellen,
she's going to need care around
the clock from here on out.
Do you understand?
Yeah. Uh...
Yeah, I-- I guess so.
Okay.
I wanted to ask you something.
I was just talking to the doctor
and she said that Mom's
probably not gonna be able
to live alone anymore.
Oh, I was afraid of that.
Mm-hmm.
You can tell she's
just not herself.
-Yeah.
-Bless her heart.
Yeah.
Well, um, so she was
saying either someone
has to live with her
or she has to go
to a nursing home.
Oh. Mm-hmm.
Um,
I was wondering if you might
consider taking care of her.
Oh, honey.
Oh, I wish I could,
but that's a full-time job.
You need somebody
young and strong for that.
Uh, if she was to fall in
the bath or something,
I-- I don't think
can get her up.
Mm-hmm.
I just don't think I have
that in me anymore, baby.
Why don't you move in there
and-- and look after her?
And take care of Haley, too.
Oh, you could
be together again.
I think she'd like that.
I don't think I have
that in me either.
What's all this?
I'm just doing some cleaning.
It's junk, so much junk.
Uh, Grandma won't like
you throwin' out her stuff.
Well, Grandma's gonna
have to get over that.
Hey, hang on.
Um, there's something that
I wanna talk to you about.
Um...
So, uh, what do you think
about comin' to live with me?
Why?
Well, I talked to
Grandma's, um, doctor
and she said that she's
probably not gonna be able
to take care of
herself anymore.
Well, why not?
The stroke damaged her brain.
You know, like the--
the confusion,
the memory issues and stuff.
I can help her do things.
Not when you're
at school, you can't.
She needs someone with
her day and night, like a nurse,
you know?
Well, why can't
you move in here?
Take care of both of us?
Because I can't--
I can't be here.
I can't-- I can't stay here.
My life was a livin'
hell when I was here.
Your grandfather
was schizophrenic.
You know that?
No.
Well, he was.
He'd walk around here
mumblin' and
singin' stupid made-up sh*t,
just tinkering with
those damn clocks.
And then something
would flip a switch,
and he'd threaten to
line us up and sh**t us.
He'd sit in there
in his chair all night,
scratchin' at the arms
until they were threadbare
and just, I don't
know, thinkin'...
worryin' about...
whatever was in his head.
He beat Lenny.
We'd hide from him in the barn.
I was just glad he shot himself
before he shot one of us.
But his crazy and his--
his evil got a hold of us.
It's right here in
these f*ck' walls.
It jumped off on Lenny
and it jumped off on me.
I think it's-- it's startin'
to get a hold of you.
I've seen your leg.
You clawed it bloody
with your worryin'.
So, you should get out of her,
you know,
while you got the chance.
Well, I like it here.
And I don't wanna
leave Grandma.
I've got homework to do.
When the sun shines
down on me
You okay?
The dreary takes
on...
Don't worry about it.
I hate him so much,
I just can't wait
for him to die.
Do you think he'll go
to Hell when he dies?
They'd probably
let him run the show.
So I go, I go
I hope Mama does, too.
-Don't say that.
-Why not?
She shouldn't let
him do what he does.
Well, I can take it from here.
No, ma'am. We're all about
full service here.
Oh, well then, let's
go back to my room.
Mama!
What?
Come on, let's get you in there.
All right.
I bet you're so
excited to get home.
Well, not without you.
You got a way with
your hands, I'll tell you.
- Oh, that's what the missus says.
- Okay.
All right, Verna.
Oh, he's the best.
Isn't he the cutest?
Oh, I have an idea.
Uh, uh, why don't
you let Haley drive?
Ma, Haley's not
old enough to drive.
- Yes, she is. She's 16.
- She's gotta practice though.
Come on. Ellen, let her drive.
Okay.
You're doing great, sweetheart.
You could speed
up a little bit.
Go ahead and piss,
you f*ck' as*h*le!
Mama! Okay, all right, SHE'S--
-What?
-All right, relax.
- Ice cream! My treat.
- Who wants one?
- I do!
- Oh, yeah.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Okay. Okay, good. Okay, good.
So, all right.
We're gonna keep
practicin' that.
So, you're supposed
to take these with food.
Oh my goodness.
These are horse pills.
Yeah. I know.
What are they for?
Well, I don't...
They're just to make
you feel better, Ma.
Well, I don't like that.
I like to feel how I feel.
That's the dumbest
thing I've ever heard.
They're just for blood
pressure or somethin', Ma.
I don't care.
My mama didn't
like me comin' here.
So, Inez and I used to sneak
out when we were little girls.
Really?
Mm-hmm.
Hmm.
It might not be so bad.
The factory?
Okay, well, where else are we
supposed to work
in Shelby County?
Well, why do we have
to stay in Shelby County?
Who's that?
- Walter Sharpe.
- I cannot stand him.
I think he's handsome.
Pleased to meet
you, pretty Verna.
Hmm. What you thinkin' about?
-Hmm?
-Hmm.
Oh. Oh, being here just
reminded me of Walter.
Hmm.
You ever miss him?
Hell no.
Mama!
Oh my goodness
Hold on, Grandma.
Wait a minute now.
-Let me help you.
-No. I don't need any help, no.
I'm fine. I'm not an invalid.
Oh, jeez.
What's all this?
I'm just cleanin' up a bit.
It's just stuff from the attic.
No, these are my things.
What are you doing
with my things?
It's just junk, Ma.
Not to me!
It's not junk to me.
These are my
personal belongings.
Oh my God.
You have no right
to throw them away.
It's stuff you haven't
seen in 30 years, Ma.
Well, so what?
That doesn't mean it
doesn't mean anything to me!
So-- okay, okay.
Grandma.
-You okay?
-No, I'm not okay.
How dare you, Ellen?
Haley, help me with these things
and bring 'em inside the house.
No, hands off.
I was gonna help you bring
'em in the house, though.
No, I don't trust you.
Well, how dare you throw
them away like they're nothin'.
They're nothin' to you,
they're somethin' to me.
-I told you.
-Yeah, you did.
Where do you want
this stuff, Grandma?
Put it down here.
I need to look inside
and see what's in there.
Okay, I gotta go to the store.
Um, just stay here
and look after her.
I can hear you.
Good.
Just call me if
you need anything.
I will.
I feel like a cigarette.
You smoke, Ellen.
Why don't you get
me some cigarettes?
You don't smoke, Ma.
I do now!
You don't smoke, Grandma.
It's all right.
Ellen. Hey.
Hey, Bobby.
I-- I heard about your mom.
Sorry.
Yeah, thanks.
You look good though.
Um, stayin' in town for long?
I don't know. I gotta...
Yeah, no, right. Okay.
I, um, I'm stayin' out
at my mom's old trailer
if you're ever in
the neighborhood.
Sorry, sorry.
Walter says he's goin'
to build houses on our land
and rent them out.
Then we'll have
plenty of money.
I just wish he'd stop tinkering
with those clocks and get to it.
See about.
Lord God almighty!
It's okay, baby.
It's-- it's okay.
Ellen thought she'd play
house with Haley's daddy,
but she ran him off
with all her nonsense.
She showed up drunk tonight
with that sweet baby girl.
Haley deserves better
than to be raised like this.
- Come on, get up.
- Get you to bed.
He'll cherish
that old rugged cross
Where's Haley?
She's asleep. Don't worry.
I'll take care of her.
That's my baby girl.
That's my girl.
How long she gonna be here?
Just another day or two.
I will grab that n*gg*r
baby and pitch it off the cliff.
Oh!
And that's the last
time I'm gonna hear you
say anything
against that baby girl.
Do you hear me?
Uh--
She's gonna stay here.
-Mm.
-And I'm gonna raise her.
If you so much as
lay a hand on her--
Yeah.
I'm gonna k*ll you.
Are we clear on that?
Mom?
Ma, do you not
smell this burning?
Why are you tryin'
to cook something?
You nearly set
the stove on fire.
Well, Haley was hungry,
so I made her some dinner.
Haley! Haley, get in here!
What's wrong?
I told you to watch
your grandmother,
not let her cook for you
while you watch television.
She nearly caught
the stove on fire!
No, I did not!
And I don't need any help!
She didn't want any help.
Okay, it's time
for you to step up.
I know you don't want to.
I know you wanna be
Grandma's little baby forever,
but that time is over.
I need you to help around here.
Why are you talking
like I'm not here?
I'm not!
Are you drunk?
Oh, you're drunk?
I am not drunk.
You smell like alcohol.
That's enough out of you!
Go to your room! Now!
You don't get to
tell me what to do.
You aren't my mother.
You didn't have to do that.
She shouldn't have
said that to you.
I never hit her before.
Mama used to whip me
all the time when I was little.
She'd tell me to go
outside, and cut a switch,
and bring it to her.
And then she'd...
She'd cut the blood
right out of my legs.
Did I whip you
when you was little?
I can't remember.
A little, but I deserved it.
Oh.
I'm tired.
I best be going to bed.
Good night, baby girl.
I'm, uh, gonna see the
army recruiter tomorrow.
Why?
I can't be here anymore.
If I stay, one of these days,
I'm gonna blow his head off.
Or I'll blow off mine.
I don't want you to go.
You're gonna be okay.
You are.
When I get back,
I'm gonna get a place of my own,
and you can come and stay
with me anytime you want.
Okay?
Here.
That is terrible.
Oh.
It is.
I wanna be alone.
She didn't mean to hit you.
Yes, she did.
No.
That's not her anymore.
I mean, like,
when she had the stroke,
the old Grandma went away.
I mean, there's some
of her left in there still, but
she's just different now.
I know that's not fair
but that's how life is.
When Grandma was young,
she thought she'd have
everything she wanted, I think.
But she was living' in a dream,
and one day she had to
wake up, and go to work,
and make do with
what life had given her.
I had big dreams, too, you know?
I wanted to be a singer.
Bet you didn't know that.
Yeah, you know I was sayin'
Bobby and I used to listen
to those records all day.
We thought we'd move to
Nashville and get a record deal.
Be big stars.
Why didn't you?
Well, I got pregnant,
so...
So, that was my fault.
Haley, no. No, no.
Hailey, listen to me.
I got pregnant a long
time before I had you.
What happened to it?
He died when it was
just a little baby.
I got real depressed.
Bobby took off and, uh,
things just didn't work out.
That's-- that's what I'm sayin'.
Sometimes things don't work
out the way we think they will,
but we just have to pick
ourselves up and keep goin'.
It didn't work out with
me and your father either.
That's life.
Life won't give you anything,
but it'll take everything you
have if you lay down and let it.
I didn't know any of that.
Um, when I had you, I wanted
to keep you and raise you, but
I wasn't gonna be
a very good mother to you,
so you're much better
off with Grandma.
She gave you a life
that I couldn't have.
Hey, but she loves you so much
and I know she's sorry.
Just don't be mad at her.
You're her whole world.
Okay.
Guess what I heard?
What?
Alexis said she asked out
Charlie Green, but he said no.
Good. I hate Alexis.
He says he's moving
at the end of the year
and doesn't wanna get serious.
I mean, who would wanna
get serious with her?
With those grades? Please.
They have my
favorite cookies today.
Those look so good.
Damn, girl, don't your grandma
feed you at home?
No, she don't get no milk
from them saggy old t*tties.
Shut your mouth,
you dumb b*tch.
What did you just say?
Answer her.
What the hell'd you just say?
I'm goin' to go get Ms. Anders.
Hello?
What, now you're
not able to speak?
You didn't mind talkin'
sh*t a second ago.
Where you goin', skank?
We're not done yet.
Are you gonna apologize
or do you need us
to beat your fat a*s?
Oops.
What you gonna do about it?
She ain't gonna do sh*t.
It don't look like it.
Oh, you f*cking b*tch!
Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
Send 'em in. Great. Thanks.
We have zero tolerance for--
Well, hello.
Oh, hello there.
Mrs. Sharpe, I am glad to see
you're feeling better.
Oh, well, thank you.
Hello, Ellen.
-Hi.
-Mr. Webb.
I wish you didn't have to
come down here for this.
Oh, that's all right.
What-- what's the trouble?
Haley got into a fight with
some of the girls at lunch.
Oh, honey.
Are you all right?
I am afraid we
have to suspend her.
- What?
- What?
I didn't start it.
They did.
They were saying-
Doesn't matter who
started it, Haley.
No, no, no.
Uh, I don't think
we'll have to do that.
I'm sorry?
You know, I used to babysit
Mr. Webb when he was little.
-Yeah.
-You remember that, Mark?
I do, I do. Yeah.
He used to come over and
play with your Uncle Lenny.
Oh, Lenny.
He used to play with his
little pecker all the time.
I couldn't get him to stop it.
In fact, I think he thought it
was gonna get away from him,
didn't you?
Uh, Mrs. Sharpe...
What would the kids
say about that?
I wonder.
Yeah, I do wonder.
Okay.
You go on home, Hailey,
and we will see you on--
-Monday. Yeah.
-Monday. Monday it is.
-All right. Thank you.
-Mm-hmm.
It was a pleasure
seeing you again.
Yes. It was, was it?
Come on.
b*tch.
Now, you two listen here.
I've dealt with b*tches
like you my entire life,
and you're no different
than your White Tr*sh parents
and no good thieving
grandparents.
So, if either one of you
ever look at or speak to
my granddaughter again,
I'll put one foot up each of
your asses and break it off.
We clear on that?
What's wrong with you?
I never got in trouble before.
Good.
I don't want it to go
on my school record
so I can't get into
a good school.
That's not a thing.
What's not a thing?
There's no such thing
as a school record.
-Yes, there is.
-No, there's not.
They just-- they just-- they
made that up to scare you.
-And it worked.
-Sure, of course, yes.
I'm proud of you. I am.
I'm proud of you for standin' up
for yourself.
That's what you gotta
do in this world to make it.
You gotta be tough.
Can't let people roll over you.
They will, every
chance they get.
Listen, I'm not mad at you.
Grandma's not mad at you.
You did the right thing.
Um, how do I
hang this thing up?
What'd she want?
Oh, Dottie Meredith died.
-Of what?
-Cancer.
I hate that.
Yeah.
You're puttin' that thing out.
Yes, I'll put it out.
Hmm.
Ugh. Boring, boring,
boring, boring.
Well, I found-- I found
a pair of your shoes.
But I don't think
I like this one.
Well, why not?
Well, it doesn't fit right.
Oh, you look so cute!
What in the...
What are you wearing?
What do you mean?
I think this looks fabulous.
Get-- get back in there. Get--
What? At least it's not boring.
- Come on.
- Black is so boring.
We're gonna be late.
-Ma. Ma.
-Oh, Ursula.
Ursula. Ursula.
-Mama?
-What?
You're a little too
up right now.
Do you need a pill?
Pill? What are you talkin'
about?
I mean, just, like...
I like your necklace.
Inez! Hi! Saved us a seat!
Oh, hi.
- Hi, there.
- How are you, sweetie?
-Hi, Inez.
-Hi.
Hi, girls.
Well, how you doing, girl?
I'm all right.
Better than Dottie.
Shh.
Don't you tell me to shush.
I can say whatever
the hell I want.
-Mom.
-What?
Oh my God.
What? What?
Your dress is on backwards.
What are you talkin' about?
Why is it on backwards?
- You helped me with it.
- Oh my Lord.
Oh, look at that,
the zipper's in front.
-Okay.
-Well, why'd you do that?
Okay, everyone here
thinks you're crazy.
Well, who the hell cares?
Hey, hang on.
- What?
- Your dress is on inside out.
Nuh-uh.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, yes, it is.
It's inside out.
Are you kidding me?
Look, the seams
are on the outside.
Okay. Come-- come on.
Oh! Where are we going?
The lunatics are going
to fix their dresses.
Oh.
Bye, Inez.
We will be back.
-Bye-bye.
-Stop. Stop it.
Oh my God.
I don't know.
What did you do?
Hi, grumpy.
How did you not see this before?
Who is that man?
I have no idea.
Ah, he looks so friendly.
- Um, hi.
- Hi.
Um, can I...
Can I help you with something?
Uh, Jerome Hopper
from Lonestar Liberty.
I'm here to do the appraisal
on your home.
- Appraisal?
- Oh gosh, was that today?
-I forgot.
-Appraisal?
-I'm the homeowner.
-You're the homeowner?
That's right. Mm-hmm.
Oh, I'm here to evaluate if
the home can stand as collateral
for residency at
Warrenwood Estates.
-Right.
-I'm sorry what?
Um, we're gonna
have to reschedule this. I'm--
-Oh.
-I'm so sorry.
No trouble.
Give us a call when you'd
like to set something up.
Ellen, what's goin' on?
What is the, uh,
Warrenswoods Escapes?
It's a nursing home.
-What?
-All right.
It's a real nice one, Mom. And--
I'm not goin' to
a nursing home.
Mom, you can't take
care of yourself anymore.
The hell I can't!
You almost burnt
the house down. Right?
I-- I-- I did not!
Why can't we all
stay here together?
Well, because she
doesn't want to, sweetheart.
She doesn't want to stay
here and take care of you.
She wants to run away
like she always does,
'cause when the going gets
tough, you know,
tough get goin'.
f*ck you.
Don't you...
Oh, no, you can kiss
my whole entire a*s.
You don't think I wouldn't
be in a better place right now
if I hadn't grown up in
that f*ck' madhouse?
I couldn't do
anything about that.
You could've left him, Ma.
You didn't have to
raise us in that sh*t.
And do what?
What was I supposed to do
raisin' two kids on my own?
You need to come back
to Earth, sweetheart.
The world didn't work
like that back then.
You didn't even try, Ma.
You-- you wouldn't even try.
I got out, I left,
and it was the best
decision I ever made.
I rest my case.
No, no, I didn't...
I did not mean leaving you.
Okay, this whole thing with
the-- with the nursing home,
it's what she needs.
You don't know that.
Yes, I do.
I don't want Grandma
going to a nursin' home!
They'll take great care
of her, sweetheart,
and you can come
and live with me.
No! I don't wanna live with you!
I wanna live with Grandma.
We talked about this.
She can't take care of you.
Well, neither can you.
You can't even
take care of yourself.
Hey, Bobby.
You want a beer?
Yes, I do.
Okay, be honest.
Mm-hmm.
Do I look as good as
the last time you saw me?
Is that a no?
Um, you look all right.
-All right?
-You look all right.
-Oh, sh*t.
-Yeah.
Oh, sh*t.
You know, most days I gotta
beat 'em off with a stick.
-Oh, yeah.
-Mm, yeah.
All right, my a*s.
Okay. How about me?
I mean, do I look as good
as the last time you saw me?
Hmm, better.
Bullshit.
No, much better.
What about you and, um...
What's your baby girl's
name again?
Haley.
-Haley.
-Mm-hmm.
Right.
You and her daddy, nothin'?
I haven't seen him in years.
Verna ran him off, too.
Oh, no.
Verna--
Cut the sh*t, man.
That's not why you ran off.
No, no sh*t.
-She hated me.
-Well, yeah.
That was practically
probably the only thing
her and old Tick Tock
ever even agreed on.
Yeah, but that's
not why you left.
sh*t just got too real for you.
You decided to make tracks.
No, it's not quite that simple.
Well, I was in the hospital
with my wrist cut,
and you never came and saw me.
I didn't wanna
see you like that.
Yeah, either that or you
were too busy packin',
so you'd be gone
by the time I got out.
What do you have
to say about that?
I'm sorry.
What?
I'm sorry! Okay? I'm sorry.
What the f*ck do
you want me to say?
We were just
dumb kids, all right?
Our kid died, and then you cut
your wrist open,
and I got scared.
So, I'm sorry.
I f*cked up, all right?
It wasn't the first
time I ever f*cked up,
it sure as sh*t
wasn't the last!
My whole life is
a f*ck up, okay?
And if I could
change it, I would.
Oh my God!
What?
You have a waterbed.
Yeah.
I don't care.
- It's not here.
- It's not comin'.
Where-- where-- where is it?
Where--
Grandma, what's wrong?
I don't know what's takin'
the mail so long
to get here today.
I've been watchin',
and watchin',
and it hasn't come here yet.
It's Sunday.
Is it? Are you sure?
Yes.
Where you goin'?
I gotta get a stick or two
of wood for the fire.
No, you don't.
You should sit down.
Yes, I do.
I need to.
No, I-- I'll get the wood, okay?
I'll get it. Just sit down.
All right.
There you go.
Just throw it in.
It'll go
straight to the North Pole.
In here?
Do you remember
when you was little,
and you wrote
a letter to Santa,
and I told you
to throw it in the fire?
Come on, hurry up.
Throw it in.
No, I-- I don't
remember any of that.
Okay now, run outside and see
if you can watch it goin' up
the chimney.
That was the year, Walter had
to put a new roof on.
I couldn't barely get
anything for you and Lenny.
I didn't know what to do. I...
Why don't you just
go to school now?
Can I?
Somewhere close by.
Can I go to school, too?
Oh.
Yes, maybe.
How you gonna pay for it?
H-- how am I gonna pay for it?
Um, well, I don't know.
We can, um,
sell some cows or, um,
maybe one of your trucks.
Honey, honey, honey.
Ain't nobody got no
sense around here but me.
Lord God Almighty,
not a damn lick.
Don't you worry.
We'll take care of it, okay?
Army'd do you good.
I do not want him
to go to the army.
Army'd make him a real man.
What do you know
about it anyway?
You were hardly in the army
before they kicked you out
for stealin' those tools.
Now, I've heard just about
enough out of that smart mouth
of yours.
Stop.
Oh, you think you're a man?
Huh?
- No!
- Mama.
You wanna come at
me like a man, boy?
You ain't don't look
like no man to me.
Stop!
Get up!
Stop it! Oh, stop it, Walter!
Get up!
I love you, baby girl.
You know that, don't you?
Yes, I do. I love you, too.
Hey.
Hey.
Haven't done that in a while.
What you watchin'?
f*ck if I know.
Are you all right?
Yeah, no. I'm fine, I'm fine.
All right, well,
maybe I'll see
you around sometime.
Sorry.
Yeah, hey, um, if
you, um, stop by again,
maybe you could call first.
See, I-- I might have
some stuff goin' on.
All right.
Yeah, I'm coming.
When the...
I'll find the way
I'll find the way in heaven
I'll find a way
When I die, all
my troubles will unwind
I'll find a way
Remember how Dad
used to sing that all the time
when he was having
one of his spells?
It's funny if you
think about it.
I never once saw
that man in church,
and he was probably
the most evil man I've ever met.
But he loved to
sing gospel music.
Ow, Jesus.
Uh, I need this, like, to
hold up my g*dd*mn head.
You ever think of
cutting back a little? Hmm?
Everything in
moderation, you know?
Now, who was it that
gave me my first sip?
Oh, uh, who was that?
Okay. All right, all right.
Yes, yes, that one
was-- that one was me.
Mm-hmm.
You know, but you've always
taken everything to the extreme.
Every little problem
and you're, like, 0 to 100.
Pow.
Okay.
Can't wait to hear
what my dead brother thinks
I'm blowing out of proportion.
Yeah. There's a lot of sh*t
going on right now.
Mm-hmm.
- Mm-hmm.
But don't fixate on that.
Stay positive.
Look at the good stuff.
The good stuff?
-Yeah.
-God. What?
What, uh, what is positive
in your life right now, huh?
Well,
my life is over.
But yours isn't.
I can't find Grandma!
What?
I woke up and she wasn't here.
I don't know where she is!
What if she's hurt?
What if something
happened to her?
Okay, all right.
Why weren't you here?
You should've been here!
Take a breath.
Take a breath. Listen.
Don't get upset unless there's
somethin' to be upset about.
All right? Okay.
Go call Inez and see
if she's heard from her.
I'm-- I'm gonna drive around.
Okay?
I'll look for her.
We'll find her. Go call.
Hey. I found her, yeah.
She's fine. She's fine.
Okay. We'll be home soon.
Hey, what you doin' here?
Please don't be mad at me, Mama.
Are you feelin' all right?
You were right, Mama.
I'm not your mama.
You're my mama.
Some women aren't
meant to have children.
I wasn't meant to.
I should never
have had children.
Don't-- don't say that.
I did everything wrong.
I wasn't there for Ellen.
She ran off somewhere
'cause she hates me.
I...
I don't-- I don't hate you, Ma.
I should never have
let Lenny join the army.
I don't think you
could've stopped him.
I should've k*lled Walter
instead of letting him torment
us.
Well, that's true.
And I let my little baby die.
That was a sign right there I
wasn't supposed to be a mama.
That was my baby that died.
No. I had a baby girl, Renee.
Remember?
And she died before
Lenny was born.
You had another baby?
And it died?
How come you never told me that?
She died in her
sleep in her crib.
I couldn't help her.
I just don't get why
you didn't tell me that.
Oh, Mama, I don't believe you.
I don't believe you.
It would helped me so much
to know that you went through
the same damn thing.
I was so ashamed.
I failed her.
I couldn't protect her.
Where is your baby, Mama?
Lenny?
No, your little girl.
Where is she now?
I buried her over where Mamaw
Grace and Papaw Chester are
so they could look after her.
Oh, I hope they are.
I'm sure they are.
You wanna go see her?
Yeah.
Okay.
After losin' her, I...
I just
couldn't lose another one.
I really tried to protect
you and...
And Lenny.
I thought I was.
And then when we lost Lenny...
Oh.
I really thought I
could protect Haley.
It's all right.
You did all right.
We all do the best we can,
right?
I'm so sorry.
Oh, it's okay.
It's okay.
Oh, hey.
Oh.
Said you'd be slowin'
me down
Ah, ah, ah
Good morning.
Look, what she's making for us.
Usually it's been runnin',
but I'm gonna settle it now
Ah, ah, ah
The banks, they been floodin',
nothing left open in town
Ah, ah, ah
Stay one more night
Okay, and I got it...
That's why she likes Skee-Ball.
It's so nice to see her
havin' a good time.
Yeah.
I don't remember
the last time she did.
Honey...
about what you
were askin' me a while back.
I done some thinkin'
and some praying,
and I reckon I
can make it work.
Make what work?
Take care of your
mama and Haley.
Well...
Well, so you could
go home, if you want.
Thank you so much.
Wow!
I-- I really appreciate that.
Bingo.
You know, I-- I think I'm gonna
stay put for now. Yeah.
-Oh.
-Yeah.
That's so wonderful,
sweetheart.
Yeah.
Oh my--
Look at you.
I mean, I think I'll need your
help from time to time if you're
-willing, but--
-Oh, you just say the word.
Okay. All right.
Oh, and don't
forget the ketchup!
We won't.
Lots of it.
Hey, Ma,
I'm thinkin' of, um, settin'
up some job interviews in town.
Oh, oh, really?
W-- when are you
thinkin' of doing that?
Uh, I mean, this week I guess.
Just after Haley gets
home from school.
Well, you don't have to
work around my schedule.
Ma.
All right.
I wish I wasn't such a burden.
You are not a burden, all right?
They've got root beer.
Oh, that sounds good.
Yeah, I'll take one.
Okay.
You've done such a good job
with Haley, Ma.
I couldn't ha-- couldn't
have done that.
Yes, you could.
Just takes practice.
Besides,
I never gave you a chance.
And if I can figure out how
to be a mama, so can you.
I see all the hard
work you're doin'.
I'm real proud of you.
Oh, here we are.
Bring on the grub.
- Oh, yummy.
- There you go.
Thank you. Where's my ketchup?
-Thank you.
-Right here.
Oh. Yeah, yep.
Oh...
You know, I love my ketchup.
Are you hungry, Ma?
No.
I think I'm gonna go lie down.
You feelin' okay?
Yeah, yeah, I'm feeling fine.
Just-- just tired is all.
-Night, Grandma.
-Goodnight.
It was fun though.
Yeah.
You don't wanna
go to bed, do you?
No.
Okay, good.
Maybe we should
watch another movie.
I'm down if you're down.
I'm down.
It's nice to meet you.
Oh, she's so beautiful.
It's okay, honey.
Mama.
Mama?
Hey, Ma.
All the years
that I have spent
They've all been
leading me to this moment
This moment
All the times that I have
tried to find the answers
Within life
The knots
I spin inside of you
Leave me now
So I'm letting it all out
Hoping you'll
slowly break down
Before you
take me back with you
I don't wanna type it out,
nand so I'm singing to you now
In the other room,
my baby's sleeping
So I muffle up the sound,
so that he won't hear me now
So my baby can keep
on breathing
You like it?
Yeah.
I think she'd like it.
All the answers to your pain,
never take my love away
But I can't spend
one more night waiting
You ready to go?
-Yeah.
-On you now
We can stay longer if you want.
No, it's okay.
We can go.
Wanna rent a movie?
Sure.
Okay.
You're gonna have
to help me, you know?
With rentin' a movie?
No. With you and me, you know?
You gotta help
me out with this.
You're doin' all right.
Well...
Just be patient with me.
Promise?
Yeah, Mom. I promise.
Thank you.
And I wanna know how
your day was at school
and what subjects you like,
what you wanna
do when you graduate.
All that.
I can do that.
I forgive you
If you forgive me, too
Life has a way
of blendin' all our mistakes
I forgive you
You did what you had to do
You hid it away
until it was safe
For the truth
And all of the hours
Held on to their power
Silence can't keep us from
the words that will free us
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry
I know I was wrong
Everything's clearer
Looking
in the rearview mirror
