Zac, I don't know
if you know this,

but me and your mother
went to school together.

She was so smart.

She introduced me
to my wife.

What I want you to understand
is that your mother

was a good person
at her core.

I know a lot
about what she went through

as a child.

But when I tell you
I have seen drugs

destroy a good soul,

they can make you do things tht
you never thought you would do.

And sometimes, it makes them
not be in their right mind.

Your mother loved you
and Jeremiah.

I remember all the times
she came to me

begging for help
to get her off that stuff.

She wanted to get clean.

She wanted to do better.

But how many of you know

that want is one thing,

but whenever there is
a chemical brain reaction,

it is hard?

If there any of you here
who are struggling?

I want you to know

that God can meet you
at your want.

God can take desires
to better

and add the supernatural

to get you
to where you need to be.

Don't give up trying
to get better.

I think Gladys' entire life

is a reminder to us

to not stop trying
to get better.

Don't stop trying.

Come on, choir.

Y'all sing for us.

[Jeremiah] Move over, man.

Y'all ain't gonna leave
no room for me?

Baby, he's high.

It's okay.

No, it's not.

It's fine.

I can't deal with this
right now.

Look at me. I got you.
I'm right here.

Yo, sit down, man.

I'm trying to see Momma
for the last time.

Why y'all got
the casket closed, man?

I can't see her.

Can you not do this
for once?

Man, I wanna see my momma, man.

Jeremiah, we're not doing this
right now, okay?

Man, I wanna see my momma
for the last time.

Can you please relax?

Don't touch me, man.

Baby, baby, it's all right.

-Jeremiah.
-What?

[sighs] Hey, man, you gonna
have to stop, for real.

It's okay.

Hey, Jeremiah.
Let's take a walk.

I'm not leaving my momma.

Jeremiah, I just wanna talk
to you.

I ain't going nowhere.

Jeremiah.

Fatima. He's high.

If you take him somewhere
and he does something to you,

all bets are off.

Zac, I got this, okay?

Okay.

Nathan, you're just gonna sit
there and watch this happen?

We're at a funeral.

Bryce, go help her.

I don't know.
He seems kinda angry.

See, this is why...

All right, I got him...

-Jeremiah.
-I'm not leavin' man.

You get your hands
off of me.

No, no, look, we're going
outside for a second, all right?

Come on with us.

I'm staying
with my momma, man.

Come on, come on, we'll be
right back, come on.

-Come on.
-[Nathan] We got you.

It's okay, it's okay.

'Cause he paid for the funeral?

My momma funeral.

Get your hands off me, man.

[Tony] Come on, Jeremiah.

Hey, hey, calm down, man.

Just breathe, relax, relax.

Relax, relax.
Come on.

[Tony] Hey, fix yourself up,
man.

No, man.

[Fatima] Thank you.

It's okay.
We got you, we got you.

Hey. Go get him
some coffee.

I don't think
coffee's gonna help

for the drugs he's on.

Nathan, are you trying
to help or not?

I'm helping. I'm helping.

Hey, Jeremiah...

What, man, I just wanted
to see my momma, man.

Y'all put me out
the church.

Okay, we did not do that,
Jeremiah.

We just wanna help you.

By making me leave?

Do you not see
how beautiful this service is?

I didn't see nothing, man.

Y'all done put me
out the damn church.

Jeremiah, we even got
her favorite flowers.

Yeah, I saw 'em.
I saw 'em.

Okay, look, we are just
trying to help you.

Don't you wanna honor
your mother's legacy?

Yeah, I do.

[Fatima] Okay.

So how about
we do this?

How about
we go back inside,

keep... Okay, sorry.

How about we just go inside
stay in the same space

in honoring her.

I don't know
about all of that.

Nathan, you're not helping.

I'm just saying.

How about you not say
and just go back inside?

Nathaniel, now's not
the time for that.

My bad. My bad. You right.

Why you being
so nice to me?

Jeremiah, I care about you,
I do.

And I wanna see you well.

Look, let's just go back inside
and honor your mother's legacy.

Can you do that?

-Okay.
-Okay.

Fatima.

You're up next.

[Fatima] Okay, I'm coming.

[Tony] All right,
we got him.

[attendants applause]

That was beautiful.

And now we will have
words of expressions

from one of her sons.

Why did he say
"one of her sons"?

It's okay, Jeremiah.

No, no, I wanna talk too.

Well...

No, I was with my momma
more than he was.

-[Fatima] Jeremiah.
-I wanna talk. I'm intelligent.

I can talk.

Jeremiah.

No, Fatima.

You know what?

Since you wanna talk so bad,
go ahead, man, go talk.

Zac, it's your turn
to go up.

Is everything okay here?

He said he got something to say,

so go ahead, man,
let him talk.

-I wanna hear it.
-Zac.

No. We're not
gonna do that.

This pulpit
is a holy place.

And your brother
has no position

-to stand there.
-No position?

I'm sorry.

[Jeremiah] What position?
What about your position?

Calm down, son.

No, no, no, you don't want me
to talk, huh?

[Genter] I...

[Jeremiah] Why you don't want me
to talk?

Because my momma used to come
in here and pray

with me and my brother.

I took good care
of your mother.

And not that she would pray.
He would...

[Genter] Don't you
tell lies in my church!

You know what you did
was wrong, man.

You are a devil.

I'm a devil?

What you made my momma do
was wrong.

-This funeral is over! Deacon.
-No, no, no.

Not no way! Nothing ain't over!

I wanna tell y'all
about my momma.

My momma
was a good woman.

When I was a little boy,

I used to do this dance
with my momma,

me and Zac, and she
used to laugh all the time.

I wanna do it one more time
for her.

Choir, play a song.
This funeral is over.

[crying awkwardly]

[Jeremiah] Momma!

Where should I put this?

Put it right here.

You should check
on Zac.

Oh, he doesn't
wanna see me.

Y'all are friends, right?

Oh.

-Hey.
-Hey.

[Angela] How are you?

I'm good.

[Angela] Okay.

How's Zac doing, Fatima?

He's fine, thank you.

Okay.

I was just telling him
that he should go check on Zac.

Oh, no, he's good.

That's good,
but thank you.

You're welcome.
See, I told you.

Okay.

You sure you good?

First of all, don't be telling
him to go up there.

You know
that is not good.

I was just trying
to be helpful.

You know, we're friends.

He messed up Zac's money.
That can't help.

Right. Facts.

-Hey.
-Hey.

-Preston.
-Hey.

How you doing?

I'm good. How are you?

I'm all right.

Where's Zac?

He's upstairs.

Do you care
if I go check on him?

Well, I was, actually, I have
to go check on him right now.

And I'll let you know, okay?
He'll be down soon.

-Okay.
-Yeah.

Can you keep an eye
on everybody down here for me?

-Oh, yeah.
-[Fatima] All right.

This right here behind you,
keep an eye on her.

Thank you, Preston.

[somber music]

Hey.

What's up?

I don't, I don't know
if this is the right question,

but are you okay?

I am...

[Fatima] What is it, babe?

I feel numb.

I can imagine.

You can?

Yeah.

Baby, you have to have
so many different emotions.

It's not like
she was there for you.

Shouldn't I feel bad, though?

Feel bad about what?

I don't know. I'll just talk
to Dr. Reid about it.

I think that's a good idea.

You want me
to call him for you?

Nah, I'll talk to him
on Monday.

[Fatima] Okay.

What is it, babe?

I can't tell nobody this,
Fatima, but...

[Fatima] Talk to me.

I know I'm supposed
to feel sad, but...

[Fatima] You don't?

I don't.

Look, babe,
I get it.

Grief can come
in a lot of different ways.

You just gotta feel it out,
okay?

I feel like...

relief.

Like, I spent my whole life
worrying about her.

You know what I'm saying?
Worrying about where she was,

-what she was doing.
-[Fatima] Yeah.

What might happen to me.

And now that she's dead,

I'm not worried no more.

Ain't that, like,
a f*cked up way

to think about your mother?

Baby, how you feel
is how you feel.

Are you sure
that's okay?

Look, I mean, if she had been
a loving and amazing mom,

then I would be worried
about how you feel.

But she wasn't.

So I get it.

Yeah, I'm gonna be all right.

You will, baby.

[Zac] I know
I'm gonna be good, babe.

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

[Fatima] Just give it time,
okay?

Yes.

Talk to Dr. Reid.
It's gonna be okay, baby.

I know it's gonna be okay.

-[Fatima] Yeah.
-'Cause I got you too.

Mm-hmm. And I
ain't going nowhere.

I ain't going nowhere either.

Can I tell you something?

[Zac] No.

No?

No, 'cause I gotta
tell you something first.

What is it?

Thank you
for loving me.

Well, you make it easy.

-Sometimes. Yeah.
-[Zac] Yeah?

You and I both know
that's a lie.

I mean, okay,
it's not easy.

[Zac] Ugh, yeah.

But you're getting better.

Am I?

Yeah, you're doing great.

You promise to tell me
if I'm not?

Yes, I will.

-[Zac] Yeah?
-Mm-hmm.

I'll be the first one
to tell you

because we been through
too much sh*t.

-Yes, we have.
-[Fatima] Mm-hmm. Yeah.

I've never had
nobody love me like you.

-Really?
-[Zac] Yes, really?

Tell Connie that.

Why I gotta tell her that?

'Cause she's downstairs.

-What?
-[Fatima] Mm-hmm.

Look, I know
your friends are wild,

but I invited them.

You invited them here?

You know me.
I used to...

Uh...

-[Zac] Past tense. Yes.
-Yeah, very much past tense.

-Past tense.
-Yeah, mm-hmm.

God, you amazing.

I never thought my wife
would be inviting my ex

to our house.

Well, that is what
you call security.

[chuckles] I see
what you did there.

[Fatima] You see
what I did there?

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

You know, but seriously,
when you have a secure woman

who knows
what she brings to the table,

she is the least bit jealous
of a downgrade.

Damn!

It is what it is.
I'm just saying.

Plus, you know
what you got.

Oh, and, um, Preston
is downstairs too.

He is?

[Fatima] Mm-hmm, he wants
to come up and talk to you.

You know, I don't know
if it's just me,

but he seems
a bit intrusive.

He do, don't he?

Is that, like,
a white people thing?

I don't know.
He just be walking in here.

And just sitting outside.

-[Zac] Who does that?
-And wanna come to your room.

I ain't never do that.

Yeah... You never do that?

I might've just barged in
a couple of times.

[indistinct]

Yeah, okay.

I'll go and check him later.

Yeah. You good?

Great.

Might be better
if I had a drink, though.

I can handle that.

-Can you?
-Yeah, I'll get you one.

You got me?

With your fine self.

Mm, hate to see you leave,

but I love to watch you
walk away.

[Fatima] Boy...

So you a real cowboy?

I am.

So that means you know
how to ride?

You better believe it.

I mean, like, you know,
horses and sh*t.

Absolutely.

Are you, are you, um,
still dating Zac's home girl?

No, but I told you that.

But y'all, y'all not together
no more?

No, we're not.

I'm so sorry
to hear that.

Well, that's all
for the best, I guess.

Yeah. You know, you really are
very sexy?

I mean, this black
you got on just...

Well, thank you, Deja.

Don't you think
I'm sexy?

Well, of course,
but this is a repast.

What? A b*tch can't look sexy
at a repast?

Yeah, you're like
an E-I-E-I-O and sh*t.

Okay, whatever
the f*ck that means.

Take my number, okay?

I wanna hear more about
this E-I-E-I-O

or whatever that means.

It sound erotic.

Okay.

And, listen,
I'ma be honest.

I haven't had a good ride
in a long, long time.

-I'm sorry to hear that.
-[Deja] Me too.

And I would love to learn
how to ride a horse.

Oh, I can definitely
teach you that.

-[Deja] Oh, yeah?
-Yeah, you got the cowboy boots?

I got stilettos.

Even better.
[Deja chuckles]

Oh, sh*t.

Where you going?

You know she don't really
f*ck with me like that.

Um, what is that about?

That's nothing.

Listen, it's nothing.

I'm glad you made it.

I got you.

Thanks, bro.

Sure thing, man, you know
I had to be here for you.

I see. I also see
you dressed for the occasion.

You see, special up.

Don't start, man.

I put my good boots on
for you and everything.

-Don't start.
-I see, I see, I see.

What about you, man?
You doing all right?

Mm, I'll be all right.

You know, I'm just taking it
one day at a time.

I know. But, look, you know
I'm here for you.

I know.

Okay, and the money thing.
Don't worry about that.

I just want you to focus
on you right now.

Thanks, bro.

You know it.

Is there anything
I can do for you?

Nah, I'm good.

As a matter of fact, I got
some people I need to talk to.

Some family and stuff.

-I get it. I got you.
-All right, give me some.

Oh, come on, man.

-[Preston] My bad.
-Make yourself at home.

You ain't at the farm. Jeez.

Connie!

Hey.

What's up? You over here,
all pensive. What's good?

-[Connie] Oh, nothing.
-No?

How you holding up?

I'm good.
You know, trying to maintain.

Yeah, you good.

Are you sure?

A little bit.

And you got that one
by your side.

[Zac] Yeah, I do.

Excuse me.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you
doing? What are you doing?

I just wanted to talk about
your moms, Ms. Gladys.

I just have some words.
Can I share them, please?

Well, you've made it very clear
that you gonna share.

Okay. Yo, everybody.

Um, yo, Ms. Gladys
was funny as sh*t.

We used to have
mad fun with her.

But she was mean too.

She was very mean, remember?

We took that money
for that ice cream.

[Connie laughs]

And she came outside,
she was about to...

Beat our a*s.
I remember that.

-[Connie] Yeah.
-Yeah.

And it's so crazy

'cause we can look back
and laugh at it now.

Yeah, it wasn't funny
in the hospital, though.

It's funny now, though.

-Ha!
-Ha!

Eat, eat, eat.
Go eat. It's...

[Connie] Zac.

My bad. It's just...
My bad, though.

[Connie] I'm sorry.

No, no, no,
it wasn't you.

It's just a lot.
It's a lot. It's a lot.

[Connie] I know.

About everything.

But Ms. Gladys would be
so happy

that you turned into this.

-You grown. You've...
-[Zac] Yeah.

You know what I'm saying?
You really doing your thing.

Yeah.

You have a b*mb-a*s chick
by your side.

I do.

-I really do.
-Yeah.

-[Fatima] Hey, baby.
-What's up?

You know, so I'm happy
you and Fatima are together

'cause it couldn't be me.

Yeah, it could never,
ever be you.

Baby.

[Connie] You know, I get it,
though. I get it.

But all I wanna say is

I got a lot of respect
for both of y'all.

Your relationship.

And, Fatima,
you know, I'm cool

and if one day,
we could be cool

in your world,
I'd like that.

Or whatever, maybe.

Okay, whatever, yeah.

But I've always loved Zac.

Oh.

-Not like, not like...
-Not like that,

but he's my family.

-Yeah.
-You know what I'm saying?

But everything we had before,

that's dead.

-Yeah, dead and gone.
-[Connie] Yeah.

But that's still my fam.

Yes, this is my fam.

They all my fam, man.

Hey, I just wanna
say something real quick.

[clears throat]

Oh, gosh, here we go
with the crying.

Hey, don't block
the blessings now.

Don't block the blessings.

Um, I just wanna say
that, bro,

we're all just here
because we love you, man.

I know we could seem messy
and dysfunctional at times.

But this is our messy,
crazy, dysfunctional family,

and we wouldn't have it
any other way, bro.

-It's Zac Attack.
-Locked in for life.

Ah, man, come on.

You know, I wanna
say something too, man.

Ah, hell, no!

Okay, okay, okay.

Nah, but, for real,
we love you, man.

And we have been through
a lot of wild stuff together.

Oh, yeah, like the few times

you almost got us
locked up, right?

Mad times. Not "few times."
Mad times!

Yeah, that was you.
That was you.

That was not me, Fatima.

That definitely sounds like you.

So you really with Nathan?

I mean, it's complicated,
but, yeah.

Mm.

I know
you not judging me.

No, I'm not, I'm not.

You got a lot to say

with that wh*re house
you running over there.

They ain't married.

Well, they don't like d*ck.

See, you didn't even
have to go there.

Well, let's not
go there then.

You know, I don't even know
why you here with him.

I'm not here with him.

He's friends with Zac,

so we're just both here.

-Together.
-But not together, Belinda.

Whatever you wanna call it,
Angela.

Whatever you wanna call it.

Don't you wanna go home?

No!

You should.

Why? 'Cause of Fatima
mad a*s?

You heard what Connie said.
They're good together.

Please, that b*tch,

she just trying to get in close
so she can f*ck Zac.

I don't think so.

I think that she's sincere

and that she's actually happy
for them.

No. Nothing sincere
about that b*tch.

I think you're wrong.

I think I'm right,

and you know Fatima ain't going
for that bullshit.

Yeah, she ain't.

She watching that b*tch
with both her side eyes.

Damn.

See, damn, this is why
I didn't want you here.

You making me messy with you.
You need to go, Belinda.

I'm not going nowhere.

sh*t, I may need another drink
before I go.

You got enough.
