Let me tell y'all what occurred

on the Chicken Sisters.

Mimi's wins this challenge!

This is all your fault.

Whoa! Oh!
Stop it! Frank!

Jay isn't speaking to me.

I lied a lot.

Now he's not returning my calls.

Are you sure this is what you want?

Yeah. I'm calling in multiple
code violations

of Augusta Moore's house.

That is why I never came back here

because you chose this over me,

and it's just junk!

From the minute Lil' Frank

took his very first step,

he was raised to one day
fill his daddy's shoes.

Frank Jr. looked up to his daddy

and did everything just like he asked.

He was proud to learn from his dad.

Even if sometimes he didn't understand

what he was learning.

Is she okay?

Don't worry about her.

You gotta ruffle a few feathers
to snatch all the eggs.

Then, after all thee years of preparation,

Frank Sr. was ready to pass the torch.

You know why you are gonna knock 'em dead?

'Cause you're a Frannie's man.

And Frank Jr.
hoped he was ready to take it.

Let's talk numbers
'cause numbers don't lie.

Uh oh. Uh, sorry, I'm might
have double hit it.

Anyone know how these work?

Uh, may I?

Yeah. Just, uh...
just a sec.

Oh! Oh! Oh! Hot!

Sorry. Just let me, uh...
It's just, uh...

It was never the same

between him and his son from that day on.

Can I come fishing?

Not this time.

Frank
Jr. was desperate

to get back in his daddy's good graces,

even if it meant going
against his personal sense

of right and wrong.

Daddy.

I hear Mimi's hasn't paid
their gas bill in six months.

Might be a good time to swoop in.

Well, you better let me handle it.

Mama Nancy says to wash up,
dinner's ready.

He thought maybe in time

things would go back to how they were,

but it turned out they didn't have time.

It left Frank Jr.
with an emptiness

that couldn't be filled.

Sorry about your loss,
Lil' Frank.

I know that you were the apple of his eye.

Didn't matter to Frank Jr.

that his daddy was gone.

The goal remained the same.

One day, he'd make his daddy proud.

What time is it?

Good morning.

Oh, I never went home last night.

No, no, no, no, no.

Let me drive you back.

Are you crazy?
People can't see us together.

The whole town will know before lunch.

Where's my other boot?

Oh, one time I had to get a mole removed.

And before I'd even left
the doctor's office,

I had a casserole and a get well soon card

waiting at my doorstep.

Oh. Oh, no. No, no.

I'm taking this. Okay?

Yeah. Go ahead.

I had fun last night.

Me too.

Frank Jr. this is county
property, you know that.

Huh?

Oh, uh. Hey, Eddie.

Sheriff, please Frank. Jr.

Uh, I must have nodded off.

I was, uh, calling the radio
station for concert tickets.

Don't want to run up
the minutes on the old cell.

Mmhmm.

Need a ride home?

Nah. I'm fine.

Better get in the cruiser.

Is that really necessary?

For my amusement, yes.

Where's Frank Jr?

Oh, crap!
Oh, crap. Oh!

Uh!

Oh.

Good morning. Just getting the paper.

It's just...

I'm so sorry to drop by
before the roosters are up,

but I had to tell you as soon as I heard.

Heard what?

Okay. You know my friend Darlene.

You know her, she wears
headbands as tube tops.

Yeah, I know Darlene.

Okay. We were out dancing
at Neon Boots last night,

and she got a page.

She works for the county,
so she's always on call.

While the county's still
using pagers, I do not know.

- Shawna!
- Right. Of course.

Um, she got a 911 about
a health code violation

that was called in last night.

A health code violation?
On Frannie's?

Un-huh. Mimi's.

Apparently your mom's been
having her supplies

shipped to her house,
and there's a record of it.

And someone told them about
the inside of her house.

What do you want to do?

Shawna, you've got to swear to me

that you won't say nothing to no one.

You think I would actually do that?

Yeah. Okay.
You got me there.

I swear I'm not gonna say anything.

Next Drop's not for another year, anyway.

Nancy knew her husband

cared about his legacy,
but now she wondered,

what was that legacy, anyway?

Hey, there. Um...

Hey, you know you're not
supposed to be in here.

Mama, we got a problem.

Well, they can't nail me on Mimi's.

This place is cleaner

than a stripper's pole
on a Monday morning.

But my house...

and with it being on the same
lot and the same address...

I'm going to lose everything.

Unless we get it cleaned up
before they get here?

How?

This requires an actual
professional, you know.

A very thorough anal retentive--

Oh, sh--

I appreciate you coming
all the way down here

so that we could talk in person.

Well, there's lots to talk about.

I know.

I made a mistake.

Lots of them.
All of them, really.

But you're here

which means that maybe
you want to fix this.

I want to try.

Great!
Oh, that's great!

Okay, I have a plan to show
you why I'm worth your love

and why this relationship is worth saving.

Mae, it's not that simple.

I know, but--

Mae we got a--

Who the hell are you?

This was the moment
Mae had dreaded

ever since she and Jay fell in love.

But if there's any chance
of mending things with Jay,

it was now or never.

Jay, this is my mother who does
not own a five-star restaurant,

and my sister, who is not a sommelier.

Amanda, Gus this is Jay, my fiancé.

No, I don't speak French.

Come over here, young man.

You got a criminal record?

No.

You ever default on a line of credit?

- Nope.
- You got a mistress?

What? No. No, no.

Do you floss?

No-- Yes. Yes.

That one was a trick.

All right.

- Welcome to the family.
- Welcome to the family.

Thank you.

I'd love for us all to sit down and--

Enough Kumbaya.

We have a family emergency on our hands.

Good morning, Shawna.

Oh, right. Amanda is not coming in today

for a very regular reason.

And there is nothing special
or worrisome that we need

to worry about or concern ourselves with.

In fact, let's never
talk about Amanda today.

Okay?

Okay, look, if you're gonna
give me the third degree.

I have no choice but to tell you.

Hey, um, I think I should
probably prepare you

for what you're going to see in there.

Oh, no.

Have the tennis courts
not been maintained?

Seriously? Um...

It's... it's kind of a lot.

For me or for you?

Come on.
It's gonna be okay.

I'll grab a couple of trash bags.

A couple, grab a thousand.

Why does she keep all this stuff?

You know, in case she needs it one day.

She should have let me deal
with this 20 years ago.

You tried, Mae.

How much time do we have?

Uh, Shawna said that either
be coming today

or tomorrow morning.

Well... let's hope it's tomorrow.

Amanda holler at Buford
down at the storage place.

See how many units he has available.

No, Mama.

Excuse you.

No, we are not putting
this stuff in storage.

We're not going to just
put a band-aid on this.

You have to deal with this.

You have to fix this... now.

I might need those.

When?!

Mama, I'm good at this.

I've spent my adult life doing this.

Let me help you.

Please.

Mae knew there was only one way for her

to get through this,
and that was to pretend.

This week, we're in the home

of Gus Moore, owner of Mimi's Chicken.

After a lifetime of hoarding,

she's finally ready for
the Sparkling treatment.

With our help, she'll have
a healthy home in no time.

Amanda, I need you in Zone 2, upstairs.

I need a full assessment
of what is going on up there.

Jay, you're on removal.

Whatever it takes to haul
this stuff out of here.

If it's a helicopter, if it's
a mule, if it's a ship, do it.

Is she okay?

Was it like this when you were a kid?

Well, it's gotten worse, but yes.

I think we're gonna need more help.

Everything okay, Nancy?

Someone called the health
inspector on Mimi's.

Oh.

Well, she shouldn't have
anything to worry about.

Mimi's is as clean as a whistle.

Gus has her food delivered to her home.

That is a problem.

Pastor, do you think...

I'm a good person?

Of course.

I mean, really?

You're kind, you're gracious.

You care about others.

You're one of the most
wonderful people I know.

Good. That should count for something.

What are you doing?

Praying for a miracle.

You think that's silly?

You're a pastor.

Well, God's work is not done by God.

It's done by people.

Corinthians.

Ani DiFranco.

We need you to stall Sabrina
for a while. Mmhmm.

Oh, no she doesn't.

Thank you so much.
Okay, bye.

Who are you talking to?

It's just Kenneth.

Mm. We can't have the whole
town jabbering about us.

And who else did you tell?

No one.

Mama, stop being paranoid.
No one is gonna find out.

How'd you find out?

Shawna.

Shawna knows!

Oh, great seed in the garden!
Shawna knows.

But she promised she wasn't
gonna tell anyone.

You're very naive, child.

Now, having your business in
the street was one thing.

Having it on TV was quite another.

So someone had to keep
Sabrina away from Gus's.

We heard you had a light issue.

I did.

Doesn't Grustor handle this sort of thing?

Well, we wanted to come personally.

We're very hands on.
Isn't that right, Patrick?

Mmhmm.

But
Kenneth and Patrick,

oh, they weren't the best liars.

Yeah. Well don't worry about it.

I'm headed out anyway.

Got to get some
B-roll at Gus's today.

Work never stops.

Speaking of work and not to overstep,

are you ever on the hunt for new TV shows?

Ha! Did my agent send you?

Yes, chronically.

I always have to be on to the next thing.

Well, let me present
to you the next thing... us.

Me and Patrick and our inn.

I really think there's something there.

Right? Let me guess.

A gloriously aspirational
and incredibly telegenic couple

strive to keep their head above
water as they lovingly restore

a heritage inn in a picturesque town.

Yes.

Eh, I've seen it.

Fine. We'll just take it to
one of the many, many, many

other producers who
have expressed interest.

So...

There's heat on this?

Where is everybody?

Who can know?

Not me. I don't... I
don't even know anything.

No, not one.

Okay.

Hey, there.

I'm in your daddy's office right now,

and I'm... I'm feeling more mixed up

than a bowl of bar nuts.

See, I loved your daddy very much,

but I'm starting to learn
that he was a very...

complicated person.

Now, honey, I wasn't lying
to you when I said

I saw so much of him in you.

But I like to think that you
got the best bits of him

and the best bits of me, too.

Now, here I am, going on
and on in a voicemail.

But I know yesterday was tough
and things didn't turn out

the way you wanted them to,

but I just wanted to tell you
that tomorrow is another day

and you can make new and better choices.

Holler at me.
I love you, Lil.

Message deleted.

Gus had always believed

what happens at home stays at home.

But suddenly her dirty laundry
was out on the clothesline

for all of Merinac to see.

This Gus was cooked.

Look at these jackals.

The whole town came to gawk
at my misfortune.

Led by the Wicked Witch of the South.

Well, you finally get what you wanted?

I'm eating sorrow by the spoonful.

And you're here to make sure
that my bowl is never empty.

No, Gus, I talked to all these fine folks,

and, well...
we're here to help.

I know you'd do the same for me.

Nancy, you know I wouldn't.

Gus, you're as stubborn as a stain.

We're trying to help, if you'll let us.

Okay.

Billy, you're on bulk items.

Dot, Pearl, I need you to pull
everything you can

out from underneath the furniture.

Magnolia. Big Tim, you're in
Zone 1, that's the living room.

After me.

Mary Pat, Rodney, we're in the upstairs.

This week on Sparkling,

we are helping a cranky
old bird dump her junk.

I think just one toaster will do.

Trash it.

Who wouldn't want to walk
a mile in these shoes?

They're nasty.

Don't you throw those out.
Show some respect.

So you're saying that all of this stuff

is functional and necessary?

I'm saying it ain't junk!

Oh, it ain't junk, huh?
Okay, right.

This is a perfectly good chair.

Oh, look, it's even got one of
those new fangled butt springs.

You need help?

- I got it!
- Yeah.

Nothing to see.

Just a grown woman
having a temper tantrum.

Frankie had always seen her mom as that,

just her mom.

But seeing these things
from Amanda's childhood

made her see her mother as something else.

a person.

Hey. Everything looks good?

Oh, everything except them.

Come on, y'all, it's not a haunted house.

Come in.

Oh, no, it's all right.

Oh, come on, you've been working hard.

Come eat.

Well, I am hungry,

but I can make do with a stick of gum

and the clementine in my purse.

Yeah.

It sure smells good, though.

Mm.

We can have Mimi's
this one time, right y'all?

Yeah.

Hey, come on, Dot.
You're hurting my feelings.

I tried your banana pudding.

Is my cooking not good enough for you?

Well, one good turn
deserves another, I suppose.

- Don't want to be rude.
- Oh!

Oh, thank you.

Thank you.

- Mm.
- Mmm.

That's not bad.

- It's got a pretty good crunch.
- Mhm.

Mhm.

Better slow down y'all.
You don't want to choke.

Mhm.

Though I have been trained
in the Heimlich... on animals

but I'm sure works the same on humans.

Mm.

Oh, so tender.

Mama is the pie ready?

Come and get it.

Locally harvested oak,

built in 1919 and then
nearly trashed in the '60's.

Some retired train conductor
in Cincinnati salvaged it.

It sat in his warehouse for 50 years.

We had to split it in two to get it here.

But you need an electron
microscope to notice it.

Okay, guys.
Guys guys guys, guys!

You do have something here.

I love it, but right now
I got a motor.

My office will be in touch
with you about next steps.

Can I grab a lid?

We're out of lids.

Oh, well, in that case.

Hot.

Whoo!

Gordo, come on!
We got a shoot at Mimi's.

Hey, Amanda.
Frank Jr. sleeping it off.

What do you mean?

Well, it's not every day

I find a man passed out in a phone booth.

You found him in a phone booth, huh?

Yes, ma'am.
Drunk as a skunk.

Must have been over-served last night.

Guess he was too dusty to help out today.

Uh, these need to go
to the dumpster, please.

Yes, ma'am.

Thank you.

I find that the best way

to declutter a mess is to
take it one step at a time.

We'll start with the closet.

Hold on, Mae.
Hold on, just breathe.

It's okay, it's okay.

I can't do it.

It's too much.
It's too much.

It's too much!
It's too much!!

I know, I know, I know.

I'm sorry. I'm just blubbering
like an idiot.

No, you're not an idiot,
Mae.

This is awful.

Mama, let all this junk get
in the way of being with us.

Of course it makes you sad.

She's never gonna choose us
over this stuff.

I know.

Just breathe, just breathe.

Hope you're hungry.

I overdid it with the
shredded cheese again, huh?

Yeah.

I don't care about that right now.

Look at all these people.

All here to help me because
I buried myself in trash.

You know, when I grew up in this house,

it was full of life and laughter and...

We didn't have much, but
we took care of what we had.

This place is just as cute as a button.

But then mama died, and I was just a kid...

and I guess all this stuff just--

just made me feel safe.

I don't know why, but it did.

And now look what I did to it.

I just run this place into
the ground with my mess and...

And my girls...

I hurt them too.

I just wish that
I could call a do-over.

You can.

I know first-hand it's never
too late to have a clean slate.

Hi, honey.

Does your mama need all these shoelaces?

Probably not.

Hey. We should talk.

Oh, yeah.

I need to apologize.

Apologize for what?

Well, I didn't know
what Frank Sr. was doing

especially when it came
to dealings with your mama.

Neither did I.

It's important to me that you know

that if I hadn't been in the dark,

I wouldn't allow it.
I would have put my foot down.

I know.

I know the kind of person you are.

I appreciate that.

But I've learned I've got
to open my eyes more.

The thing about
Nancy opening her eyes

is that suddenly she noticed more details.

Last call for seconds.

I'm not hungry.

Sergio! Can
I get another plate?

Sure thing.

Amanda...

Look at me.

I can't help but notice that
you're wearing the same clothes

you were wearing last night.

Yes, ma'am, I am.

Is there something you'd like to ask me?

Did you betray Frank Jr.
last night?

Frank Jr. betrayed us last night.

Look around you, Mama Nancy.

Everyone in the town is here
except one person.

One person who knew

what the inside of
Mama's house looked like.

One person who wants to win,
no matter the cost.

Frank hasn't been handling
things well lately,

but I can't imagine that
he would stoop that low.

I can.

Like father, like son.

Hey, Grustor.

Gordo! Gordo!

Look at this mess.

No wonder no one wanted me here.

All of this was in Gus's house.

Uh, do you want me to roll on it?

Yep. Roll on everything.

Be right back.

Mom, stop! You're, like,
scorching the earth

and then getting out of town!

It's gross!

Honey, I appreciate your
passion, but this is my job.

You don't have to do this.
This is my friend's family.

Your friend?

Honey, you are only hanging out with her

because I made you keep her
busy while I was filming.

What?

Mom, no, it's not like that.
She put me up to it, but I...

Hold on. No.

What is wrong with you?!

Linzey.

Linzey! I didn't know she was there.

I didn't!

Can we talk about this, please?!

Please, please, let's--

I got a bunch of footage out here.

Do you want me to go inside?
Film in there?

Dang, Mama, where's the fire?

Why aren't you at Gus's?

We're not closed.
It's not a holiday.

Somebody needs to be doing
their job around here.

I can see you're hard at work.

Yep.

Maybe you're not at Gus's
because you didn't want to be.

Maybe you're the reason
the whole town had to show up

and help out.

Can you keep your voice down?

I have a headache.

Maybe you're the fella

who called in to the health inspector.

Frank Jr. you didn't!

I want to win, don't you?

It's what daddy would have wanted.

Your daddy might not be the best authority

on right and wrong turns out.

I know he'd be ashamed
of us losing to Mimi's.

That may be, but he's gone,
and you know who's here?

Your wife.
The mother of your child.

Maybe you should think
about her for a change.

You my mama or hers?

Sabrina! Sabrina!!

Did you follow me?

Yes, I did.

And I would do it again.

You and I both know how
this is going to go down.

It doesn't matter how
clean we get this house.

And if the inspector passes Mimi's,

as soon as your footage comes out,

it's going to destroy everything.

Everything that the women
in my family have built

over generations will be over
because of some stupid show.

Don't worry about it.
We didn't get any footage.

Something weird happened to the camera.

Yeah, you told me to turn it off.

I guess I did.

Good night, Mae.

I'm sorry for what I said about the show.

I like it.
It's a cute show.

All right, get out.

- Ma'am?
- I said get out!

- Go.
- There is still stuff to clear.

Come on.
Get out of here!

Wait! Where is everyone going?

Rodney, you're in Zone 2
for another 45 minutes.

Gus told us to leave.
She said we're done.

What?

No, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no!

Get back in there!

No way. Your mama scares me.
I'm gone.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

We still have so much left to do.

Hey, hey, hey.
It's gonna be okay.

- No.
- We'll figure something out.

No, it is not gonna be okay!
I can't do it!

I failed.

You couldn't clean decades of trash

out of your mom's house in one day.

- No.
- That is shocking.

No, no, Jay!
I couldn't do any of it!

I had this whole plan that
I was going to show you today

why this relationship is worth saving,

why I am worth loving, and I... I couldn't.

Hey... you are.

What?

When we first met, I couldn't
believe how lucky I was

to have this smart, driven, beautiful,

bossy woman in my life.

But it always felt like if
I got a little too curious,

a little too real, you'd put a shield up.

Well, today there was no shield.

And now I'm here with the whole Mae.

A smart, driven, beautiful,
bossy woman who, it turns out,

is also a sweet, loving,
raw, emotional mess.

Covered in unidentifiable schmutz.

Smelling like--

Jumbo moth balls.

Yes.

And I want to fight for her.

So, do you forgive me for--

--lying since the moment you met me?

I mean, I don't love that,

but I understand why you did it.

And, um, I haven't exactly been
completely honest with you.

Did you also work at Donkeys?

I do have the butt for it, but no.

I quit my job.

I know, I was just so burnt out.

You know, it's not like anybody wakes up

and dreams of working

in mergers and acquisitions as a child.

I thought we could travel.

I could think about what I
really want to do with my life

and have it figured out by the
time we got back to New York.

Sorry. I just need a second
to take this in.

Yeah, I've been there.

I know how important security is to you.

Now that I've seen how
you grew up I get why.

You could have told me.

I didn't want you to think less of me.

I would never.

Back at you.

Hey, Patrick, has Linzey come back?

She's not answering my texts.

Yeah. A while ago, she
checked into a separate room.

Did she?

Yes. And only one room had come available.

And it was our premier suite.

- And is that--
- On your platinum card, yes.

Great news.

And your pitch today--

One hundred percent insincere.

Designed to distract me.

Lovely.

Let me know if there's anything
else I can do for you.

Oh, no.
You've done enough.

Linzey.

- Linzey!
- I'm asleep.

Sounds like it.

Well, have a good night.

I love you.

It's okay if you don't say it back.

Oh, cool.

Mama, the house!

I'm calling the fire department.

- No, no, no.
- What?

Let it burn.

It's just junk.

We're too close.
Come on, mama.

- Mama!
- Mama!!

- Gus.
- Mama!
