[music]

Princess!

Look at you!

I predict you're going to be
super successful one day.

-You do, Mr. Ruffin?
-Yeah.

How can you say that?

Every time I see you,
you're working.

There are books
all over the place.

In my country,
work ethic is highly respected.

Well, thank you, but

how can you be successful
if you have no idea

what you want
to do in your life?

Ah, Princess,
you will figure it out.

I wish I was as focused
as you are at your age.

Honestly-

I'm telling you, that was funny.

I'm glad we went.

I was worried about you.

I thought you were going
to break something.

Well, I was worried
about myself,

'cause I ain't never passed out
from laughing.

That was funny.

I wonder if that's a thing.

Well, it is now.

[Efe] Hey, Mr. Brown.
Hey, Miss Kimberly.

-Hey, y'all.
-Hey.

Looks like you guys
had a great time.

-Oh, we did.
-We did.

-We had a good time.
-Maybe too good a time.

How can you have
too good a time?

Well, we went to see
a Christian comedian.

[Efe] Uh-huh.

He was very funny, and Leroy
laughed so hard he, passed out.

Twice.

Yeah, that's 'cause
it was funny.

They had this comedian named
Disciple Paul, right?

And he was telling this joke,
and the joke was so funny,

I bent over, and next thing
you know, I was out.

But I come back, too, though.

-You passed out?
-Yes.

-Are you okay?
-Twice.

I just...
Pow! Pow!

Just like that.

You might want to get
that checked out.

No, I'm good. I'm good now.

I can see.

What are you guys doing?

Oh, I'm working on a big project
for my wellness class.

-You have a wellness class?
-Yeah, I do.

They suggest the class to anyone

who's considering
a psychology major.

Oh, I love it.

What are you up to, Efe?

Me?

Nothing. I'm old.

I get bored most of the time.

Well, if you're that bored,

I got some more yard work
you can help me do.

Ah, Mr. Brown, I help you
with the yard all the time.

-No, you don't.
-I do, I do.

-You tell me what to do.
-I help you all the time.

And sometimes I need...

I need something
that will challenge my mind.

This yard work,
yard work all the time.

Well, you can always help me
with my classwork.

It's usually a struggle for me.

Like this project.

What's the project about?

Well, we have to conduct
interviews with people

at different stages of life
and how they reach their goals.

And then we have
to create a vision board

about the realizations we had
in our case studies.

Well, you're in
a great situation, Sandra.

You have a house full of people
to interview.

Yeah, we can all help you
with that.

Mm-hmm.

I think you're gonna discover
a lot about yourself.

This is great.

I hope so.

I'm so confused on
what I want to do.

That's normal.

-It is?
-Of course it is.

Ah, Princess, you are further
along than I was at your age.

I was lost.

I still am.

Efe, I'm so glad
you can admit that.

-'Cause you're pitiful.
-Oh.

[Mr. Brown]
You are. That's that.

He sometimes, he do.

Leroy, you are not helping.

Now, you gotta tell the truth.
Sometimes I look over at him,

I say, boy,
what is wrong with you?

Efe, what you doing?

[Kimberly] It's okay, Efe.

You're at an age where you have
to work to find yourself again.

Cora and Leah tell me
that all the time,

but how do you do that?

Yeah, do something
with your life.

Ah ah.

At this age?

I have no idea.

Okay, just go to sleep
and don't wake up, then.

Do something.

At this age,
I also have no idea.

It actually bothers me.

I think I need something to...

get me out of bed
in the morning.

Yeah, you should be bothered.

Leroy, stop.

Well, you should.
I'm just telling the truth.

He should be bothered.

Oh, Mr. Brown is right.

I'm just like a ship
that is just a-

[Mr. Brown] Without a sail.

He like a Cadillac
without a GPS or M.

He like a one-eyed monster.
With no eye.

Like books without pages.

He like a jug with no content.

Pouring empty.
Imagine pouring empty.

Just like he's pouring...

empty. Thank you very much.

[opening theme song]

? No matter what you do,
I love you ?

? No matter where you go,
I'm behind you for sure ?

? Always remember,
blood ain't never water ?

? We'll make it
if we stay together ?

[music]

I get your point, Mr. Brown.

Mr. Brown, you're so mean.

I'm not mean.

People don't like the truth
no more.

You telling 'em truth?
Oh, you know what, never mind.

I'ma just shut up
the rest of the day.

You know what, Efe,

I think this project would be
good for you too.

Me?

But I'm not
in St. Sandra's College.

Why would I do a school project?

You don't have to be
in college, Efe.

A vision board is
a great exercise for all people,

from all walks of life,
at all stages of life.

Yeah. And where there's
no vision, people perish.

That's the Bible.

Wait, yeah, Mr. Efe, you should
do my project with me.

So do it just to do it?

Everyone should
have a vision board.

It'll help
you figure things out.

[Efe laughing]

-Figure it out?
-Yeah, figure it out.

I keep telling you people,

I am old.

I don't even know
what vision to have.

I don't have anything to put
on the board.

I tell you what, you better quit
hollering at my woman.

It's OK. I believe you do, Efe.

You just have to do the work
to discover it.

And what does old mean?

You are still here
and in good health.

You should have aspirations
and goals even at your age.

Come on, do a board with me.

-Oh, Princess, I just-
-Come on.

Come on. Come on.

-OK.
-Come on.

-Boy, he gonna be a mess.
-Oh.

He's gonna be fine.

He's gonna be a-

-Hey, Mr. Brownie.
-Oh.

If it ain't the pregnant couple.

-[all laughing]
-What's up?

Hey there.

I hear we're in the family way?

-We are.
-[squeals]

-Congratulations.
-Thank you.

I am so happy for you.

-Oh, we are so thrilled.
-Oh, you should be.

The Bible says children
are a reward from the Lord.

Well, that depend
on the children.

[Kimberly] Leroy.

OK.

You are so silly.

My baby will be a beautiful
blessing, Mr. Brown.

Well, I hope so.

Well, wasn't Cora a blessing
to you?

[scoffs]
She started out that way.

But when that girl turned
a teenager,

she started acting like
her mama.

I had to get a switch and just
[imitating whip sounds]

tear them legs up.

I don't believe
that for one minute.

You better believe it.

[Leah] No, uh-uh.
See, I'm with Kimberly.

Cora has been nothing
but a bundle of goodness.

And I don't believe in spanking.

That's right.

And we're not spanking our
bundle of goodness.

-Definitely not.
-That Leah's carrying. No way.

Well, if you spare the rod,
you spoil a child.

OK, well, there will be no rod
on this bundle of goodness.

Well, if you spare that rod,
you're going to turn

that bundle of goodness
into rottenness goodness.

Don't you put that on my bundle,
Mr. Brown.

Oh, these gentle parenting.

Go get in the corner. Be quiet.

Say nothing. You want something?

Nah-uh. Shut up.

Oh, Leroy.

There are other ways
to discipline a child.

OK, no one will be hitting
my bundle.

OK. You say that.

Wait till that baby get
in high school.

You're going to
[imitating whip sounds]

That's what you're going
to be doing.

That's why I learned to shout,
getting whooped.

I can tell you got a bunch
of spankings growing up.

Thank you so much for talking
with us, Ms. Anastasia.

I'm used to it, darling.

People always want
to interview me.

Everyone has always
been befuddled

about how I became so fabulous.

Well, I can see that.
You are fabulous.

-[Anastasia] Yes.
-OK, first question.

If you could give advice
to your younger self,

what would you say to yourself
at my age?

I would tell her, by the end
of the first date,

to make sure she knows
how big a man's-

Ms. Anastasia!

What, honey?

Wallet.
Know how big his wallet is.

Sandra, what did you think
she was going to say?

Oh, [chuckles nervously]

Wallet. Yeah.

-Oh, OK.
-[Sandra] Yeah.

So you are telling her

she should only be
with a man who has money?

Absolutely.

But what about love?

Love is overrated.

Make sure he has money.

Well, how do I know that by
the end of the first date?

-By his car?
-No, darling.

The car could be rented.

I'll tell you how you'll know.

I can't wait to hear this.

Always go to a steakhouse.

A steakhouse? Why a steakhouse?

So you can see
how he orders his steak.

But how a man orders his steak?

I like mine well done.

Exactly, darling.

If he orders his steak rare,
he's loaded.

-But if he orders it-
-Well done.

He's broke as hell.
Ain't got a penny.

Run like hell.

[sucks teeth]

A well-done steak is good.

I don't know
what she's talking about.

[music]

So what you younguns want?

We're creating vision boards.

And we just wanted
to get some wisdom

from people who are older.

Yes.
And seeing that you're very old,

I'm sure you have
a century's worth of wisdom.

Efe. Efe.

Now, I'm wise, but I'm not old.

Efe, you're old.

But you're older than me.

Yeah, maybe in years.

But Efe, you're old all over.

I mean, look at you.

Just look at you.
Ask your sister how old I am.

You know my sister?

Everybody know your sister.
[laughs]

Okay, all right, all right.

-Focus.
-Okay.

-Anyway, the question is,
-Uh-huh.

what is the secret to a happy
and fun life at any age?

That's a good question.

-Wanna know the secret?
-Yes.

Come in closer.

A little closer.

The secret to a long,

fun, and happy, powerful life?

Narcotics.

Narcotics?

Grandpa, you can't just tell
people to use drugs.

Shhh, nobody said nothing about
drugs.

Shhh, nobody said
nothing about drugs.

Say no to crack,
'cause crack is wack.

All right.

Say no to heroin
'cause heroin is scaring.

But say yes
the little blue pill

because it gives you
the strength at will.

Yes.

And, and,
say yes to Mary Jane

'cause she takes away the pain.

Okay, Grandpa, we get it.

Oh, okay.

Now look, let me
tell y'all something.

Y'all can sleep on
that wisdom if you want to.

You can sleep on
it if you want to,

but what's gonna happen,

you're gonna grow up ugly
and very unhappy.

I'm so unhappy right now,

I knew I had my bag
somewhere around here.

Tried to tell you.

All right, it's time
for Grandpa to go blaze up.

I'll holler at y'all later.

Y'all seen my bag?

I left
my bag sitting right in there,

-and I knew I had it.
-I found your bag, Leroy.

You found, look at you, baby.
That's my baby.

Look at this,
I call her my baby.

How are the interviews going?

We're getting
some interesting information.

Very interesting.

Well, that's great.

[phone ringing]

Pleasant Days, where
it's pleasant to be here.

Yes.

Who?

Oh. Leah, Leah!
Uh, Jeremy! Telephone!

What's going on, Mr. Brown?

-Hold on, here they come.
-Everything okay?

It's Phillip's science teacher.

Oh.

-It's Oliver Munson?
-Yeah, that's what he said.

I couldn't pronounce that,
couldn't I?

He said it.

Hi, Mr. Munson.

Uh, no, Phillip is not out
of town.

Excuse me?

He hasn't been to class
in eight days?

Eight days?

I heard a lot of the kids

have been ditching Oliver's
class.

It's the last period of the day.

They go to
the new bowling alley.

Ditching?

Okay, um,

yes. Thank you, Mr. Munson.

Your son has been ditching
his science class.

I told y'all.

You spare the rod,
you spoil the child.

Hmm!

[music]

Yeah, I said it.
I told y'all, I said it.

Okay, wait, we must remember,

kids get distracted nowadays
by so many things.

Distracted?

Oh, I got something that's gonna
distract his behind, all right.

Your son done lost
his everlasting mind.

He ain't tried it with me today.

-For the last time.
-No, no, no.

Let's get this straight.
He ain't lost his mind.

He had to lose it
ditching class.

No, he ain't lose his mind,
'cause he ain't never had it.

You know why?

'Cause y'all spared the rod
and spoiled a child.

Now, you want me to tell you
how you get his mind back?

How we get his mind back,
Mr. Brown?

You take him back there
and you...[mimicking a spanking]

Just don't beat him.

Just get your gut right on
that back.

-Leroy.
-You trying to send me to jail?

No, I ain't trying
to send you to jail.

Ain't nothing like
a belt or a switch

that'll get that tail in line.

You just... You just...

-I'm gonna show you.
-Don't come over here with that.

I don't need you to show me.

You didn't know how to do it.

You spoiled him.
Did you see what he's doing?

You got too many whippings
growing up.

I'm so disappointed
in my brother.

Shh. You and me both.

Yep.

Hey, everybody.

Um, Sandra, let's go.

I don't want to witness this.

Yeah, me either.

Bye, Philip.

Good luck in your struggle,
young soldier.

Hey, Ms. Parks.

Don't look at me.

Is everybody okay?

Mm-hmm. We okay.

How you doing?

I'm good.

School's been
a little stressful, but...

Oh, is that right?

Yes, sir.

Oh, Phillip, why?
You're always so respectful,

and you're doing so well
in my class.

Thanks, Ms. Parks.

What about the rest of
your classes, Phillip?

I'm trying my best.

I value my education.

You value education?

Yeah, I do.

I was working really hard

all day at school today
to make you proud, Dad.

Hmm.

Anyways, I'd love to sit here
and chit-chat Father,

but I have to tend
to my studies.

Uh, Father? Studies?

When did you get so proper?

Hmm. Hmm.

Your science teacher called
today. Mr. Munson?

[stuttering] I...

[mimics Philip's stutter]

Look, Mom, he's really old.
That's what it is.

Oh, Oliver is my age.

Sorry to break the news to you,
Ms. Parks, but...

-[Kimberly gasps]
-Oh! Oh! Phillip!

I didn't mean to...

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

You gonna spank me?

You don't think I'm not
too old to get a spanking?

Let's talk about it like men...

Wait, wait, whoa! Ow!

Don't, don't, don't hurt...

Wait a minute!

Jeremy, what's... what happened?

I'm about to help my son
find his right mind.

He's in a...Jeremy's in a rage.
He got a belt?

Yeah, I believe
it's a private matter

between a father and a son.

Well, I hope the son is going
to be okay.

I hope so, too.

Look, Phillip needs to learn
to make better decisions.

Well, it looks like your dad
is finna help him

make better decisions.

So, so what are you guys doing?

Oh, we're making vision boards.

Vision boards?
Oh, I love vision boards!

You make them too, Ms. Cora?

Yes, every year!

Wow, that's amazing!

I thought it was something
only young people do.

Well, well, well,
I beg your pardon?

I'm young.

Oh, yes, I know, I'm sorry.

You're sorry, you're sorry.

-No, I, I, no disrespect.
-Okay.

Can we ask you some questions?

Oh, sure, sure.
Go ahead, go ahead.

Okay. Ms. Cora,

if you could give advice
to your younger self,

what would you tell yourself
at my age?

My younger self?

I would tell my younger self

to don't worry so much
about the future,

but be in the present,
right in the present.

Wait, I love that.

Yeah, you know, I used to be
so worried about the future

that I didn't think about
living life in the moment.

You know, but those present
moments are so important

to building your future.

So, what would you say
to a man my age?

To a man your age,
I would say that

you're still young,
you still have a lot of life,

and know what you like,

and know who you are,
and live at every age.

Oh, I think I have
to find myself again.

That's important in every
new chapter of our lives.

But how do we do that?

-By living!
- Living?

Yes, living!

Like going to work,
going to school,

hanging with friends,
traveling, even making mistakes!

But you have to find joy
in every moment.

Wow.

This is so good.
Thank you, Ms. Cora.

Oh, you're so welcome!

-One last question.
-Oh, okay.

All right. Go ahead.

How do I...

How do I make a vision board

when...

I do the same thing every day,

but I don't have any vision
to put on the board?

I've been there.

At times like this,
you have to reflect

and exhaust every possibility.

And put every vision,
every dream on the board.

And before you know it,

one of those possibilities
will find you.

Thank you, Ms. Cora.

You're welcome.

This is great stuff.

Live.

-Live.
-No limits.

No limits.

[Philip] Dad! Dad,
you can't be serious

about giving me a spanking!

Wait, wait! Ah!

Whoa! Let's talk about this!

You lost your mind.
You about to find it.

Jeremy, Jeremy, Jeremy!

Jeremy, put the belt down.

Okay? For now...

Thank you, Mom.
I love you so much.

Don't get cute with me, boy.

I am so mad at you right now.

Wait, wait. Mom, Mom, Mom!

No, you can't let
things upset you. Okay?

You're carrying
my little brother or sister.

Studies show that when
the mother is upset,

the child, the baby...
it feels that stress.

Well, you about to feel
some stress.

Come on, Dad! Dad, I'm sorry!
I'm sorry! Okay? I'm sorry!

Man, what has gotten
into you lately?

It... It's just...

Ever since Sandra came back...

feels like...

feels like you guys are giving
her all your attention.

Like...

like you don't even notice
me anymore.

I feel invisible in a home
where people say they love me.

It's just
Sandra, Sandra, Sandra.

Oh, baby.

Don't you move.

My baby just said he feels
invisible, Jeremy.

Oh, I am so sorry we made
you feel that way.

Come here.

I can't believe you fell
for that.

Fell for what?

Boy, why are you playing
with me?

-What?
-Why are you ditching class?

What? I just poured my heart out
and Dad is being so insensitive.

And as soon as I get
on your side,

you're sticking your tongue out.

That's...
that's not what that was.

I was mid sneeze.
I was mid sneeze.

[music]

Hey, look, hey, excuse me,
excuse me, man.

Look, man, cut the crap.

You skipping class to see
some chick, ain't you?

Dang, Dad.

How do you know everything?

You know, I was a young player
once, so, you know.

She fine?

They call her
"Give It Up Gabby".

And she live up to the hype.

[Jeremy and Philip laughing]

Give me this belt!

Wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait.

It was a joke! It was a joke!

Jeremy, I'm gonna kill him!

Give It Up Gabby...
