07x08 - Never To Be The Same

Post by bunniefuu »

[WOMAN] Previously on Queen Sugar...

You said I was the love of your life.
Did you mean it?

I did.

You know what? You ran right ever

since Camille, your first crush.

- Oh!
- You found her? Let me see.

My mother used to do this, too.

I just wish that she
could've heard me when

I told her about Jimmy Dale.

But us, being in those boys' life,

it's a part of our destiny, you know?

[CHASE LOWESTON] Anyone?
I'm not from around here, please.

I'm chase.

[RALPH] That's the piece
of sh*t that r*ped Darla.

[CHASE] No, no, no, I didn't.

[MEN SHOUTING]

[DOOR OPENS]

[RALPH ANGEL BORDELON] Missed you guys.

[DARLA] I missed you.
[DARLA] So worried about you.

- What's up, baby?
- What happened? You okay?

It's fine.

- [RALPH] How you doin'?
- [DARLA] She was so afraid.

Hey, hey. Tru.

Last night must've been so
intense in that empty house.

- It was...
- Was it cold? Did the boards hold up?

- Uh, yeah, actually...
- it was fine, we managed.

- [CELL PHONE RINGING]
- Yeah.

Cardale.

[MICAH WEST] Talk to me.
Hey, what up, cuz?

She did good?

[DARLA] She did so good.

[RALPH SIGHS] So where you at?

Headed over with some help right now.

Cardale's farm is flooding.

- Oh, no.
- [RALPH] It's headed toward the co-op.

We gotta go, like, now.

Okay, well, um,
I need to go check on the mill first,

- let's take two cars.
- Uh-uh.

We should stay together.

- [RALPH] Right?
- [MICAH] Yeah.

Yeah, we should, like,
stick together, stay together.

- Just makes more sense.
- Right.

Okay.

I'm gonna go see if Miss
Olivia can sit with Tru.

[TRU BABBLING]

[MICAH SIGHS]

- You need to talk...
- I need to get my mind right

before I can say anything.

She deserves to know. Like,
we don't even know where this guy is.

- What if he shows up...
- Micah, I'm gonna handle it. All right?

Look, I hear you.

One catastrophe at a time.

I'm gonna handle it.

- All right?
- Okay.

[RALPH] These sandbags need
to be filled in place.

- Wood, you got me?
- [HOLLYWOOD DESONIER] I got you, bro.

[HOLLYWOOD] I need four
with me, all right?

- [MAN] Yeah, yeah.
- Grab a shovel and grab your sandbags.

Couple of y'all follow Benny,
we gotta get them pipes unplugged.

Asap, asap, the water's moving,
come on, y'all.

Micah, take some pictures for insurance.

Yep.

I, uh, I need to get over to the mill.

We just got the equipment up
and running, so if it's damaged...

[DARLA] Ra has everything
under control here, we have...

Hey, vi.

[RALPH] Think we can use
the diner for lunch?

Uh, of, of course.

I can head over there right
now and set everything up.

- [RALPH] Thank you.
- You know, vi, I'm gonna help you.

- Okay.
- I'll head over to the mill.

[RALPH] Wait. We need more help
at the diner than the mill right now.

- What's going on?
- Nothing. Look, y'all stay close.

[RALPH] You need to stick together,
keep eyes on each other.

Please?

Uh, I won't let her out of my sight.

All right.

[NOVA BORDELON] It's been
a rough night for all of us.

[RALPH SIGHS]

Come on, let's get those
sandbags filled, fellas.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

- Hello?
- [WOMAN] Is this Violet Bordelon?

Yes, this is Violet Bordelon.

- [WOMAN] I am so glad...
- you know, I'm so sorry, but now is not

a good time for me.

I am calling from Jones
hospice care facility.


- Hospice? Wait, who?
- I have Jimmy Dale on the line for you.

[WOMAN] Jimmy Dale?

- Yes, I know him.
- He says you're next of kin.

No, I am not involved.

[WOMAN] [INDISTINCT]
- I am absolutely not his next of kin.

- He has requested to speak to you.
- No, ma'am.

Ma'am, ma'am, please,
please do not transfer me. I...

- [CALL BEEPS]
- [EXHALES]

What do you want, Jimmy Dale?

- [RALPH] Come on, y'all.
- [HOLLYWOOD] You heard him.

[RALPH] Come on, fellas,
come on, come on.

We gotta get these bags
to the grains, asap.

[HOLLYWOOD] Dump it up, dump it all.

We gotta keep the water
away from the fields.

- [MAN ] Give me another one.
- [MAN ] Over here.

[MEN TALKING INDISTINCTLY]

[MAN ] First one up?

Y'all, come on, come on,
come on, come on!

Why are y'all standing around?

[GRUNTS] Come on, y'all.

Y'all get them bags over,
come on. We got no time.

Yo. Yo, yo. You good? You good?

Yo. Uncle Ra.

[RALPH GRUNTING]

[MICAH EXHALES]

I think I'm still in shock.

I open the door...

...on my way to pull the windows,

and Calvin was standing right there.

- [NOVA] Unexpected.
- [BILLIE DENTON] To say the least!

And after all this time?
That's a lot to take in.

- [NOVA] Yeah.
- How you feeling?

Honestly?

It felt good.

Yeah, I bet.

You're gonna be able to say everything
you ever wanted to say to him.

That's huge.

[CHUCKLES] It's even more than that.

To keep a promise to myself.

To be the woman I always wanted to be.

To not be someone who gives
into the desires of the moment.

Who honors her relationships.

Who doesn't cheat.

Struggled with that for most
of my adult romantic life.

And last night, I didn't cross any

of my own boundaries, and...

- ...proud of that.
- [BILLIE] That's good.

So, you gonna tell Dominic
about the night?

I am.

There's nothing that happened

that I wouldn't share with him.

And that makes me
feel nice for a change.

[BILLIE] I'm proud of you, girl.

[NOVA] So?

How did everything go
at Prosper's with miss Sandy?

She fare okay?

[BILLIE] She did. And I, um...

...kind of fell asleep
on the couch with Benny.

What?

- What? Wow, really?
- [LAUGHS]

Okay, I mean, I ain't mad at none of it.

I know, he's... I know.
Nothing happened.

We just talked.

- Benny?
- Mmm-hmm.

- "Talked"?
- [CHUCKLES]

- [SNORTS] Yeah, okay, whatever you say.
- He's a nice guy.

He's really sweet.

You know what the crazy thing is?

Is the more I spend time
with other men...

...the more I can't stop
thinking about Vince.

I don't think that's crazy at all.

Think that's you,
working through some things.

Seeing where your heart leads you.

You're on a grand adventure,
Billie Denton.

Just follow it.

Go where it takes you.

[DOOR CREAKING]

Billie.

- I need to tell you something.
- Is it my dad?

Prosper is fine, baby.

I wanna talk to you.
Sit with me, will you?

Yeah, okay.

It's about Jimmy Dale.

[NOVA] What about him?

- What'd that bastard do now?
- He's dying.

Called me from hospice.

Some kind of hail Mary, thinking
that I was gonna come visit him.

The nurse says that he likely
won't make it through the night.

Oh, baby, I'm good.

I've already said to that
wretch what I needed to say.

I don't know what he's thinking,

keeping me on the top
of his emergency list.

Doesn't matter.

I said my piece.

I got my closure.

You didn't, Billie.

Now, he will never give you
an apology worth a damn.

He'll never make amends.

That's his burden to carry into...

...whatever lies ahead for him.

But in facing him...

...looking him in the eye

one more time, declaring your truth...

...can help you in any way...

...now is the time to do it.

I want that. I wanna...

I want, I want closure.

Baby.

Just because this helped me...

...doesn't mean it's gonna
be the same for you.

Everyone has to come to these things

or not come to these things...

...In they own time,
and in they own way.

I want it, I'm...
Uh, um, I wanna see him.

I wanna see him.

U in here?

Oh, sweetie, what...
Baby, what's going on?

[SNIFFLES]

Darla, baby, what happened?

It's just a tough moment. I'm, I'm okay.

No. Baby, you are not okay.

In here, alone, shaking?

That's not okay.

What's going on, Darla? Tell me.

'Cause you're scaring me, baby.

It's... it's, it's about
the man that, um...

[EXHALES] ...He might be Blue's, um...

...Blue's biological...

[EXHALES]

He, he's contacted me.

Oh.

I, I, I want to tell
Ralph Angel, I really do.

And, um...

...I, I know that I need
to tell him, but...

...I'm just so worried about, uh...

...what he might do.

How he'll feel.

Oh, baby, I am so sorry.

No, no, I...

You faced your fear.

And you got free.

I have to do the same.

You don't have to do anything.

Every situation is different.

Freedom looks different for each of us.

[WHISPERING] Oh, god.

I know, that's...

[EXHALES]

[IN NORMAL VOICE] This could break us.

Look.

You take your time coming out.

You're gonna be okay.

[WHISPERING] Okay.

It's gonna be okay.

Take your time.

I wanna thank you all for this.

I wasn't the most supportive
of this co-op at the start.

Took a long time for me
to come around to things.

I was in my head about things,
thinking about myself.

But now I understand.

I see.

We are stronger together.

I'm just sorry...

...that it took all this to make me see.

[VOICE SHAKING] You were
doing all this for our farms.

And you ain't even got
your own to hold onto, now.

I'm learning from you, Ralph Angel.

Like I learned from your daddy.

It ain't nothing better in this world...

...then calling a Bordelon a friend.

Thank you.

- Yeah, I love you too.
- [CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING]

Good work, everybody.

- Yes, sir.
- Time to go eat.

I know everybody waiting for us.

I appreciate it.

[CROWD MEMBERS CHATTERING]

It's happening?

Hey, Joaquin, been meaning to ask you,

man, how's your pops doing?

He taught me everything
I know about farming.

[QUIETLY] Thanks.

Hey, Benny, man.

Look, I wanna thank you
for talking to Joaquin.

We've had it pretty tough going.

Man, you and Miss Vi are doing
a solid for the kids and they family.

These kids, man,
they need our attention,

or by support.

That's real.

I mean, these kids got way
more to process than we ever did.

[BENNY] You ain't never lyin'.

I know I'd be a completely different
person

if I had to grow up without a dad.

That's why we gotta hold 'em close.

That's real.

It was off...

How are you feeling?

Soft...

It's flooding back.

You know, I already dealt
with this in my own way.

I, um, [CLEARING THROAT]

I suffered a lot of losses.

Real losses because of what he did.

And I worked...

...damn hard...

...to be able to stand up.

And I am standing.

- I'm here.
- Yes.

You are.

Jimmy Dale was a horrible man.

And the world is a better
place without him.

Absolutely.

He b*at up Vi... He tried to r*pe me.

And now this... monster...

...gets to rest in peace?

Well, I doubt he'll have peace.

I don't believe that's how
the universe works.

Do you know how many times in my mind...
That I played this out?

What I may say to him?

I did it for years.

Jimmy Dale...

...was the first man...

...to support my dream
of wanting to be somebody.

He used to call me...

...Billie D. Esquire.

[SIGHING]

And I loved it.

And then I realized that it was
all a part of his predator a*mo.

And then everything just...

...warped...

...In my own mind.

And my... my dreams and my thoughts.

He made 'em feel wrong...

...stained...

...and then I just...

...just locked him away.

I threw 'em away.

Just like that.

[NOVA QUIETLY] Say it.

Say it to me.

Say what you tell him.

- You're a thief!
- Good.

You took everything from me.

You took my dreams...

...you took my light...

...you took my trust.

You took everything.

And you don't get to do that to me...

...and not pay for it.

You gon' have to pay for it!

You hear me?

You don't deserve to see me...

...you don't deserve
what you took from me...

I hope you rot... in... hell!

[CRYING]

Hey, have you seen Ralph Angel?

No, he was right behind us
when we left Mr. Cardale's.

I saw him get in his truck.

Anyone see Ralph Angel?

[CARDALE] Uh, he couldn't
have gone too far.

He's the one who sat us down
to break for lunch.

So he just slipped away?

[QUIETLY] I don't...

What was that?

- What?
- That!

That squirm...

Look, can I talk to you for a second?

Um...

Yeah, so I said
that I wouldn't say anything,

but I think that you deserve to know.

A guy named Chase
stopped by the farm last night.

He was looking for you,
and things got...

Uncle Ra b*at him pretty bad.

Oh, my...

[BEEPING]

- [DISCONNECTED BEEPING]
- Damn.

The cell towers are...

Darla...

Can I have your keys?

- [HOLLYWOOD] What's wrong?
- Please, I need your keys.

- Please.
- [VIOLET] Okay, what's happening?

[DARLA] Tell them...

[MICAH] The guy that hurt Darla
showed up at the farm last night.

Well, he's not here.

His truck's not here.

- [DISCONNECTED BEEPING]
- Cell phone lines...

Where else could he be?

What else does he do?

Nothing...

He works and...

...he takes care of his family.

That's his life.

He thinks about us, and...

...he spends time with us.

And he thinks about this land,
I mean, that's it.

That's who he is.

I don't deserve him.

- Ah, don't say that. That's not true.
- Yes, it is, because...

[SIGHING] I keep things from him,

and it's never the right way.

[HOLLYWOOD] Whenever...

...either one of you keep anything
from each other,

it's not the right way.

He's had his fair share of secrets, too.

Not like me.

I mean, even what he did
with the Landry's warehouse...

...that was for me.

For his family...

...I mean, I was wrong, but...

...It wasn't like this.

I just...

I cannot outrun my past.

- Yes, you can. You have been.
- [DARLA] No, no, I can't.

It just keeps coming
back and knocking me down.

But it doesn't keep you down.

Darla, I've seen you at your worst.

I've seen it bad.

The hard stuff.

I dare to say that I know
you better than anybody else

in this family except for Ra.

But I've seen the fight.

I've seen the battle that you've done

to get you to where you are right now.

Now, sweetheart...

I've prayed for you every day...

...since I came and got you that night.

And I promise you...

...I always will.

I know.

I needed to hear that.

Come here.

You always will.

[PHONE BUZZING]

He's at the pool.

Can we talk about...

...what happened at the farm last night?

I guess we have to, right?

I didn't want you to find out this way.

I didn't' want you to find out at all.

I thought I could...

...handle this all on my own.

But clearly I can't deny...

- I'm so sorry...
- don't blame yourself.

Don't blame yourself for what he did.

Don't do it.

You did your best, right?

What happened last night?

Last night I looked
in the eyes of a man...

...like my son.

The same man who assaulted my wife.

If Micah wasn't there to stop me...

...I might've k*lled him.

No remorse.

Part of me wishes I did.

I should have warned you.

But I really did not think
that he would come here.

I know, I know, I should've
told you while it was going on.

But this... this all just
happened like two weeks ago.

Two weeks?

And... I was in D.C. with Blue,

and... and a school friend saw us,

and put two and two together,
and I... and...

- And she contacted him, I...
- What about Blue?

What about Blue?

What about Blue?

He met Blue?

He's never met Blue, Blue has no idea.

- How you know?
- Because I know!

My mother's got this
locked down, Ralph Angel.

I'm not sharing my son with that man.

- I can't do it.
- You're not gonna have to.

Chase doesn't want to meet Blue.

He just wants this all to go away.

He has no idea that I never
came looking for him,

that this fell into my backyard,
like it did his.

And what if that changes?

That's what he says now,
but what if he wants to meet Blue?

Wants to be in his life, what,
am I supposed to just let the man in?

That venture is never gonna happen.

I promise you that will...

that's not a promise you can make,
Darla.

[SHOUTING] A r*pist
does not have rights.

A r*pist has no legs
to stand on in this situation.

The law don't see him
as a r*pist, Darla!

Let's be real!

That rage you felt last night?

I have felt that for years.

You think you're the only one
that's wanted to k*ll him?

I've been there.

But I won't do it.

I will not lower myself to that,
and neither will you.

But I will get on any stand.

I will go to any newspaper.

I will go to his wife, to his boss,
and all of his friends,

and I will tell them...

...what he did to me.

I love you, Darla...

...but you could barely
handle all this buzz.

Are you sure you wanna
go public with this?

You think that's a good idea?

Yes.

I do.

I have nothing to lose...

...with you by my side.

I'm gonna call him...

...and I need you with me.

I'm always with you.

And I have nothing to lose.

And how are you doing today?

I'm blessed, and you?

I am abundantly blessed
and highly favored,

this I should say so myself.

Well, amen!

Let the church say "amen!"

[ALL] Amen.

It's been a great day.

Now, who wants to say the grace?

[KNOCKING]

Baby, you expecting somebody?

Not that I can think of.

My brother...

Oh, my brother.

- You're here!
- [DANTE] Papa!

Oh, my...

[IGNACIO] Mijo!

[JOAQUIN] I missed you so...
I can't believe you're here.

[IGNACIO] I love you so much.

[MURMURING HAPPILY]

Sorry for just...
Sure enough, forgive me.

I couldn't get through, I tried to call,
but cell towers are down.

Ignacio...

Baby, we are just so happy to see you.

[JOAQUIN] You okay?

- [IGNACIO] Yeah, I'm okay.
- [DANTE] I love you.

[IGNACIO] I love you so much.

Everybody come here, come on,
we got enough food for everybody.

We used to do this too much.

All the time.

I can't believe you remember.

It's the perfect pick me up, thank you.

We'll let the good times
heal the bad times.

Yeah, I like that.

You know, all week long,
I've been craving fried onions.

What in the world?

[NOVA] Summer of junior year, remember?

We always end up at
Camille's dad's burger place?

[BILLIE] Ah, Camille, your first love.

Mmm-hmm.

Man, he got tired of you trying

to push
a damn garden burger on the menu.

[LAUGHS]

Camille would make me a
grilled cheese and fried onions.

Now it's all I can
think about. [CHUCKLES]

Just the onions?

Not Camille?

That summer changed everything.

I know, but it wouldn't hurt to call.

Could hurt a lot.

Could feel good too.

I mean, you don't want anything from her

you're in love with Dominic.

And the way that
you handled seeing Calvin,

that's a big step in the right direction

to the woman you want to be,

as opposed to who you were.

And Nova, if you're saying
that the summer with her

is the summer that changed everything,

then why not resolve that too?

Okay, Iyanla.

[LAUGHING]

Maybe I'll take you up on that advice.

You're welcome, beloved.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Oh, you know what?
I need to pick that up.

- Daddy gonna k*ll me.
- Oh, you're right.

- "We ain't outside."
- Right? [LAUGHS]

[PHONE RINGING]

[VOICEMAIL SPEAKING]
You've reached the offices

of candidate Charley Bordelon.

Please leave a message.

Hey, mom.

It's a rough day.

Just a rough few days, but, um...

...I just wanted to call
and tell you that

everybody's okay.

I know this is way overdue, but...

...I just wanted to say I'm
very sorry about what I posted.

You know, I know I hurt you
and dad and...

But I just wasn't thinking.

Or, well, maybe I was but...

[SIGHS] ...About
the wrong things, and...

...I wanted to make noise,
and I got caught up, and...

...I'm just really, really sorry.

Thank you.

That's the first real food
I've had in months.

Baby, I can't imagine
what you've been through.

It was so painful not being
able to speak to my kids.

Knowing they were safe here though...

...you'll never know
what that meant to me.

We were...

We were glad to have him here.

Those boys,

they brought real Joy to our lives.

You have two remarkable young men.

Ignacio,

let me get you another plate.

Oh, no, no, no.

You've done enough.

Well, I know you're exhausted.

-So you're welcome
-[DOOR OPENS]

To just change your mind and stay here.

The non-profit that's been
working on the case

arranged for that motel room
for a few weeks.

It's gonna give me
a little breathing room.

And I just want to be alone
with the boys, you know?

Of course, of course we do.

Miss Violet, we can't thank you enough

-for everything that's-
-uh-uh. [CHUCKLES]

I am gonna see you at work tomorrow

not getting away from me that easy.

[HOLLYWOOD LAUGHING]

Your father's exhausted, and it's late.

Come here.

Well, if you ever need help
with true north.

Oh, of course, now.
I'MMA hold you too it.

Thank you, Miss Vi.

This is too much.

We knew this day was coming...

...and we prayed for it,

for their sake.

I just didn't know
it would hurt so much.

[CAR DOOR OPENS]

Hi, Camille.

Nova?

Hey.

[LAUGHS]

It's been forever.

I just...

It's so weird, I was just
thinking about you.

Um.

The other day, Billie Denton
liked one of my posts.

[LAUGHS] Did she?

It's great to see you.

It's good to see you too.

[SIGHS]

I was so sad to hear
that your dad passed.

Thank you.

It's, uh...

It's been some years.

I know.

He, uh, came through a few times

right after my ex-wife and I
reopened the store.

He was so dear with us.

He, uh, [LAUGHS]

Encouraged me to reach out to you.

Said you were in New Orleans.

Did he?

Yeah.

He never told me.

Gave me your number and everything.

You didn't call.

Life.

Kids.

- Wife.
- I wish you would have.

Really, Nova, I didn't think
you'd want to hear from me.

This isn't a situation
either of us wants to be in.

So let's get to it.

Yes.

- [DOOR OPENS]
- Let's.

[RALPH] Still ain't
learned your lesson, huh?

Hey, look. I didn't come here
for trouble, okay?

- She asked me to be here.
- Man, shut your mouth.

Just please, please. Wait.

- Please.
- Now.

You were given instructions.
I suggest you follow them.

[DARLA] This is my family.

You've met my husband, Ralph Angel.

He's here to make sure
that you don't hurt me.

And Hollywood is here to make sure that

Ralph Angel doesn't hurt you...

...unless it's absolutely necessary.

And Violet...

I'm the unknown quantity.

You just never know.

This... all of this

isn't necessary.

I'm a reasonable man.

I'm just trying to protect
my family and my career.

I don't want to be here just as
much as you don't want me here.

Well, then why did you keep calling

and harassing me

when I told you not to call me?

Make sure we're on the same page.

Bullshit. You're trying
to intimidate me.

What are you doing at St. Josephine's?

What are you intending?

Make sure this can all go away.

- How are you gonna do that?
- Talk to you.

Ask you to sign...

...an NDA.

I'm not signing anything.

You're the one who'll be signing,

and it's a whole lot more than an NDA.

[SCOFFS] Paternity rights?

Now, I keep telling you
he's not mine! All right?

This is just a misunderstanding!

I didn't do anything wrong then or now!

Then we don't need a paternity test.

So sign that and fore go any and all

parental rights in perpetuity.

[SCOFFS]

Gladly.

The next one is an emergency
protective order,

keeping you away from me and my son.

It's good for five days, while I pursue

a civil harassment order
from the courts.

No, no, no, no courts!

I keep telling you, it's not...

why would I believe
anything you have to say?

- You're a liar and a r*pist!
- I didn't r*pe you!

So you didn't touch me?
You weren't there?

I wasn't the only one!

- [RALPH] Watch your damn mouth!
- [HOLLYWOOD] Stop it!

- Watch how you talk to her!
- [HOLLYWOOD] Stop!

Ra! Ra!

Let her just finish this, okay?

Let Darla do what she's doing,

and you just need
to be here for support.

Nobody here likes you.

Finish your paperwork,

and I'll make sure you
get out of here in one piece.

If you say no courts and mean it,

then the next document is
a civil restraining agreement.

It says that you will stay away from me,

my children, and my family.

Some states call it a stay-away order.

And finally on the last page,

there is an agreement
followed by wire instructions

you will be making a very large donation

to the St. Josephine's
black farmers co-op.

Initial payment, $ , ?

Monthly payments
of $ , for years?

That's $ million.

I ain't gonna agree to that.

Then you'll be seeing me on
national TV telling my story.

If the first payment isn't in the
account by the end of the week,

if you miss any payments of any month...

...look for me.

You're really gonna out yourself?

Out myself?

I didn't do anything wrong.

I was a young woman

in a social situation,

who trusted the people that I was with.

You r*ped me.

It doesn't matter if I was high or drunk

or dressed a certain way

or dancing with you suggestively

or any other crap
you'll try to throw my way.

You did what you did.

And now, I'll make sure that you pay.

You'd have to prove it.

[DARLA OVER RECORDING] Why would
I believe anything you have to say?


You're a liar and a r*pist!

[CHASE OVER RECORDING]
I didn't r*pe you!

[DARLA] So you didn't touch me?
You weren't there?


[CHASE] I wasn't the only one!

[AUDIBLE STRUGGLING OVER RECORDING]

[RALPH OVER RECORDING]
Watch your damn mouth!

[HOLLYWOOD OVER RECORDING] Stop it!

[RALPH] Watch how you talk to her!

[SHOUTING]

[CHASE SCOFFS]

You can go now.
