Daisy, we've been watching this for two
hours.

You sure you're in this movie?

I am. It's almost here. I'm in the big
finale.

Oh, not again.

I'll get this.

That's it.

That's it. Good.

Um, can someone fix the color?

It was shot in black and white.

Why does it always have to be about race
with you?

Hey!

Mr. Brown, you're messing up the
picture. How am I messing up the

space suit is blocking the signal.

I can fix that.

Here we go.

On your tiptoes. Well, I'm on my tiptoe.

Put your hands up in the air.

And wave them like you just don't care.

Now then, lift your leg up.

Now the other leg.

Just a little bit more.

Cara, I feel like I'm about to pee on a
hydrant or something.

They're singing and strutting.

That's my best friend, Florence Baker.
She was in that movie.

Oh, you know her, Miss Emory? Oh, yeah.
We grew up together. We traveled from

Alabama. Shh, shh, shh. It's a big
finale. It's now.

Look, look.

It's me.

Where?

I'm the white woman in the long white
ball gown.

They are the white women in long white
ball gowns.

Now, my costume.

Wow!

You were really pretty.

What happened?

I traded in my beauty for rain.

I don't get it. I'm so surprised.

That's it?

I gave up an episode of Bonanza for
that?

I'm with you. That's a great movie.

That's what made Flo a star.

All I got out of it was $25 and my wrist
being felt by Ray Charles.

I think I'm going to call Flo. I haven't
talked to her in a while.

Oh, that's going to be a long distance
call.

How do you know?

Because she's dead. That's why they're
playing the movies.

She died.

Flo.

What made you so callous?

30 years in the military and two seconds
of you in that movie.

You didn't come down for dinner.

No, thank you, sweetie. I'm fine.

Well, I know you miss your friend.

Did you find out anything about the
funeral arrangements?

Flo was buried over a week ago. She was
broke, alone.

There was no funeral, no family, no
friends.

Had I known, I could have tried to at
least put some money together to give

a proper burial.

It's a huge event.

Oh, yeah?

We were on our way from Alabama to
California. We only had enough money to

to Kansas City. We had to thing to get
the rest of the fare.

Took us almost two months to get to
Hollywood.

Wow.

Oh.

This is us with Sam Cooke.

Wow. Looked like you had a lot of good
times.

She was something else. When she made it
big, she always tried to encourage me

to follow my dreams. I just didn't have
her.

Oh, good.

I don't know. Here I am, broke, 35 years
old, living in this house.

Miss Edna,

how old are you for real?

I'm 35.

Miss Edna, do you want to come back
inside? We're watching another one of

friend's movies.

Is that you?

Yeah.

You knew Biggie?

Louis Armstrong.

Oh.

Is he a rapper?

London.

Go find something shiny to play with.

Okay.

Give me Biggie.

So do you want to go and watch the movie
with everyone else? I think I want to

just stay here with my memories.

All right.

Double word point.

Well, here's my word.

Piquant? That's a joke.

It's piquant. P -I -Q -U -A -N -T.

Piquant.

That's not a word.

Yes, it is. And it's seven letters plus
triple the word point.

Booga!

That's not a word. I can look it up. You
don't have to do that. I can just tell

you what it means.

Um, piquant.

Of an interestingly provocative or
lively character.

Kind of like me.

She's right.

I'm scared.

Didn't think I was that smart, did you?

No. What?

What's the capital of what?

Girl, that's easy.

W.

Things are back to normal now.

Hey, kids, what's up? Hi.

Hey. Hey, London.

Uh, you guys, why is Pace Tooth in the
closet?

I don't know. Why don't you ask him?

I did.

Hey, Suze, why are you in the closet?

Shh.

Oh, hey,

honey. Hey, babe.

All right, kid, time to get ready for
bed.

What? No, five more minutes.

Fine.

London, you don't have to... I hate you.

Never mind.

Take me to go to bed.

Hey, Suze, here is your juice.

Anything else, just let me know, okay?
How about some crackers?

Crackers.

Okay, crackers.

Okay, that doesn't seem odd

to you?

What?

That he's sitting in the closet by
himself.

That's the only place he can
concentrate.

He's studying for his law degree.

Well, how long have you known Jesus is
in the closet?

Jesus is in the closet?

started working here okay he's got a

really big test coming up they have to

I really don't think he has a choice.

Mr. Brown is always after him.

Time to get you some dinner.

Come on. To the kitchen.

I'm not telling.

Lord, Lord, look what I have done. I got
this boy lusting after my flesh.

Flo and I went to this all -male club in
Harlem dressed as a couple of fellas.

Why would you go to an all -male club?

Because it's all men.

Oh, we had a good old time until I asked
the bartender where the ladies' room

was.

Oh, no.

Oh, that was nothing.

Oh, we used to dance to all hours of the
night. Oh, you did.

Remember how you done it, Sandy? Come
on.

What the... Oh, no, no, no. She can't
dance like that.

I've got to go change my shoes.

Come on, girl. Come on. Okay.

Take it out.

Take it out.

Take it out. Take it out.

Take it out.

That is wonderful.

I'm so glad you're in a better spirit.

You feeling better?

I do feel a lot better. Good, good. You
know, I've been doing a lot of thinking

lately, and I've finally come to a
decision.

Good. Great.

I'm ready to die.

I'm getting a knife. What? A knife? For
what? To cut my grapefruit.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

Well,

okay. Well, how are you feeling?

I'm fine.

Okay, well, you know, you were talking
about dying last night, so I'm just a

little concerned.

Well, I appreciate your concern, but
I've already made my decision.

I want to die.

Why are you thinking this way?

My friends are gone.

I have no family left, and I just want
to see everybody again.

You know, when people die, we tend to
just focus on the negative.

I just want you to think about the
positive things in life. Like here, we

love you.

I appreciate your concern, sweetie. I
really do.

But I'm fine.

Now, remember, we got to keep an eye on
Miss Edna. She's been very depressed

now. I'm scared she may hurt herself.
Okay, I'll watch out for her.

aspirin's left. I had a headache.

A headache?

A headache, jackass! A headache!

Well, go back to sleep, then.

I'm gonna go upstairs before I have to
hurt you.

Oh, Cora, she scared me.

She was gone.

Oh, Cora, it got me all tits.

Cassage me.

Right there, just right down the side.
Oh, my Lord, quadriceps.

Come on, Cassandra.

You strong like your mama.

She had them old fat sausage fingers.

Charlie, you're strong. You've been
lifting weights.

A little bit.

Where you come from? I just came out of
the closet.

What?

When we was young, people would keep
their secrets locked in the closet. Lock

yours back in the closet.

I don't want to be in the closet
forever, Mr. Brown. No, stay in the

Stay. I need to confess.

No, don't confess. I've been suffocating
in there. I can't sleep at night. You

need to know how I feel. No, I don't
want to know how you feel.

Keep it to yourself.

No. Hey, what's up?

Nephew.

Nephew.

He tried to... Well,

I've been trying to tell Mr. Brown why
I've been in the closet.

Oh, yeah, I knew all about that.

Should have done the same thing when I
was in school. Would have got a lot of

work done.

Not you too, nephew.

I should know y 'all gay.

Gay?

Sorry. I don't want to offense nobody.

Happy sexual.

I'm not gay, Mr. Brown. And neither am
I.

Well, Will, you do have Patti LaBelle on
your ringtone.

Hey, that's what my mama called. That's
her jam.

Wait a second.

La Vida Loca's a good song, but I don't
have it as my ringtone.

Patti LaBelle sang Vida Loca.

I thought that was because she had Vida
Loca.

Mr. Brown, I was just in there studying.
I got a big test coming up, and it was

the only quiet place I could find in the
house.

I thought you wanted me.

To do what?

I just wanted a couple days off.

I really need to ace this test.

I thought you was trying to ace my test.

I got scared.

Well, you go ahead and go and take some
time off. It's good to see you getting

yourself better and improving yourself.

Thanks, Mr. Brown. I appreciate it.
You...

claustrophobic? No.

I'm Mexican.

Well, you know it.

For the record, Mr. Brown, if I was gay,

you'd be at the top of my list.

Oh, my gosh. You know what?

I got an idea.

We have a big surprise for you.

Well, Miss Edna, we found your memory
box. And after doing a little research

making a whole lot of phone calls, we
came up with this.

Miss Edna, this is your life.

I am young Edna Wright.

My mother is a seamstress and my father
is a farmer. Together they raised eight

children and taught me how to be a lady
in a time of struggle for our people.

Papa died before I graduated, but I
always remember him saying... Soldier!

Oh, baby girl.

You can be whatever you want. Make your
voice count in the world.

Do it for our God and our people.

I'm Emmett Barnes.

And I married the lovely Edna Wright in
the summer of 1962.

And after six months of passion, I died
in bed with a smile on my face.

I'm Willie Leroy Gray, owner of Gray's
Funeral Home.

I met Edna at Emmett's Wake.

We got married three days later, and we
had two years of marital bliss before I

died in the restroom, joining the Mile
High Club with a smile on

my face.

I am Captain Odell Foster.

An airline pilot.

While comforting Miss Edna in the
cockpit, we married that

night at a little white chapel on the
Las Vegas Strip.

After five years as husband and wife, I
died on home plate in Yankee Stadium

with a smile on my face.

I am Wilbur, Edna's baby brother.

Not only was she my sister, but she was
my best friend.

Until you dressed me up like a girl and
paraded me around the neighborhood.

How did you know that? I love you. Oh, I
love you too.

I am London.

I'm not playing anybody. It's just me.

But I just wanted to say thank you for
teaching me how to be a...

Sexy black woman.

Thank you, girl.

And I'm Sasha.

I used to be a little afraid of growing
older, but you have shown me how to

mature with grace, dignity, and style.

And how to always keep a smile on my
man's face.

I love you. I love you, Miss Edna.

Edna? Who are you?

I'm Joaquin.

We don't have a real family anymore, but
you sure feel like family to me.

Oh, thank you, sweetie.

I love you.

And I'm Florence Baker, Edna's best
friend.

When I wanted to give up, she was always
there for me.

When I wanted to go home, she encouraged
me to fight for my dream.

And even though we were apart for so
many years, I knew she was my friend to

very end.

I dedicate this to you.

Somewhere that I can go to ease my
troubled mind.

Somewhere that I can go when things
don't seem right.

And I.
