Morning, everybody.

Morning, Cora.

What's up, cousin?

Can I get you some coffee? Oh, sure. I
have to have it on the go, though. I

to get to my class.

Oh, yeah? How's that going, by the way,
Cora?

Well, half of them are writing great
essays, Will, but the other half can't

spell essay.

Cora, that's easy. You mean them kids
can't spell essay?

I need to come to... It's just essay.

Oh, Lord, I'm thirsty.

Cora, you know if you're going to be
drinking all that coffee, you need to

the mint.

You don't want to get them kids
halitosis.

Here, take one of these. I found these
mints in the floor on there. You can use

them. They taste funny, though.

Mr. Brown, these are not mints. These
are birth control.

I'm going to be pregnant?

Why do I look like pregnant? Just like
that.

Baby, you can't leave this stuff laying
around.

Well, those aren't mine.

Well, if they're not yours, then...

Cora. Oh, Cora.

Come here. Come here. Come here.

You talking to me? Yes.

Cora. What? You been doing love?

Mr. Brandt, I'm abstinent. You ain't
abstinent if you standing right here.

Okay, so wait a minute. If... Baby, if
they're not yours and they're not

then... Oh, they can't be Miss Daisy's.
Because if she had a child, it'd be her

great, great, great, great... Great,
great, great, great.

Great grandchild.

That baby would own all of us.

Well, maybe Miss Edna left them behind.
Oh, no.

Edna's plumbing has been removed.

I might have rushed it out.

And maybe they're Brianna's. What? Shut
up.

That's ridiculous.

Let me see those.

Oh, boy. Here you go.

They are Brianna's. Shut up!

You know what? I'm sick of she done got
nasty just like her mama and Etna.

Stop being nasty.

I'm going to get me a T -shirt that
says, stop being N -A -S -T.

Why?

Because you're nasty. That's why.

Well, she's only 15 years old. See? She
running around here with her skirt all

up and wearing makeup and eating up all
my cereal.

You need to whoop me just like I used to
whoop Corbin. Tie her up. You've never

whooped me, Mr. Brown. You are a liar.

There ain't no cross this line and I'll
tear you up, Cora.

Don't talk no more lies. You better make
a rainbow on the floor.

Brianna Janae Ortiz, answer this phone.

I've been calling you three, four, too
many times.

Answer this phone or I'm going to come
find you.

Now, would you call you back?

Yes, I would.

Because I... And responsible, unlike
this little hot mama we're raising.

Can you believe Breonna's having sex?

Well, we don't know for sure that she's
having sex.

Okay, sometimes women take the pill to
regulate their cycle.

Women? We're not talking about no woman.

We're talking about a little girl.

Okay, you stop screaming at me, okay? I
am not Breonna.

Baby, you know what it is.

I mean...

Here we are, busting our butts to
provide a good home for her, and she

and does this?

Damn it!

I'm furious!

Okay, you better calm down, man. Will,
sit down.

I don't... Sit down!

All right, baby.

This is exactly the reason why I think
that I should be the one to talk to her.

We don't need to talk about anything.

She's not taking the pill.

I mean, taking the pill, I believe, just
leads to promiscuity.

And it encourages other unsafe behavior.

Baby, baby, the last thing we need to do
is scare her.

We need to sit her down and tell her how
we feel. I'm trying to tell you how we

feel.

You're not telling me how you feel.
You're screaming at me, okay? Calm down.

Maybe she won't pick up the phone.

I mean, she could be... She could be
having sex right now.

You know what?

I got an idea.

We should send her to a convent.

Treat them some nuts.

When she gets home, I'm gonna sit her
down and tell her exactly what we

discussed.

Okay. Okay.

Okay, yeah, that's good. That's good.
That's good.

And you know what? I should be there,
too. I should be there.

Baby, at the rate that you're going,
You're going to have a stroke before the

child gets home.

Especially because if I'm dead, then
there's going to be some little young

comforting her at my funeral.

Good morning. Good morning.

How may I help you?

Aren't you Cora Simmons?

Not if I owe you money.

You don't owe me any money, but there
was that time when you borrowed my

letterman's jacket and it didn't give it
back.

Gordon Boggs, is that you?

In the flesh. Oh, my goodness.

How are you?

I'm doing good. I'll tell you what, Cora
Simmons, Beachwood High, class of 19...

Shut your mouth!

Oh,

you look great.

You haven't changed a bit.

Well, now, that would make me the oldest
-looking student in our class.

But you are just as pretty as ever. Oh,
well, thank you. Same old Gordon. You

always know how to charm the ladies.

So what brings you here?

Well, yours truly just interviewed for
the principal's position.

Really? I didn't know you were in
education.

Yeah. So last I heard, you were in the
Navy.

Well, I had to get out. They wanted me
to do some things that I just couldn't

bring myself to do.

Well, like what? Fighting?

Torturing? People just... Swimming.

I am terrified of water.

But let me take a look at you there,
Miss Cora. Oh, look at you go. Oh,

Quiddick, stop it.

You got no reason to be embarrassed. You
look absolutely exquisite.

Oh, exquisite. I haven't been called
that since.

Shoot, I ain't never been called that.

My daddy tries to call me too, but he
calls me split.

Yeah, so how's the dog, the kids, the
wife?

Well, the kids are in college, and the
wife, she left with the dog years ago.

God, I miss that dog.

Oh, no, no, I'm a widow. My husband died
years ago.

Oh. I'm sorry to hear that. How did he
die?

Broke.

Hey, Bocore, you always know how to make
me laugh. You know, I know I was sweet

on you in high school.

Oh, well, thank you. You wasn't so bad
yourself.

Hey, why don't we get together and have
dinner? You know, catch up.

Oh, yes, I would love to have you for
dinner.

I mean, have dinner with you.

Oh, but I'm free tomorrow evening.

Tomorrow evening? Uh -huh. Tomorrow
evening, I've got a spinning class.

Maybe you can come with me. Then
afterward, we can catch a bite. You

Oh, spinning?

Yes, sure. All the time. All the time.

Spinning is my favorite. The department
store, the grocery store.

How about we go spin at the gym then?

Oh, okay, okay. They take plastic.

I'll meet you at the gym on Peachtree
Street. Let's say around 6 .30.

Oh, couldn't keep me away if you tried.

I wouldn't try.

Cora, I am glad we bumped into one
another.

Oh, yes, me too. Me too.

Cora Simmons.

See you later.

Hey,

Sasha, I'll be back by six.

Oh, no, you're not, because we need to
talk.

Okay, what's up?

asked me that?

Because of these?

You've been going through my things?

Brianna, that's not the point.

What are you doing with these?

They're for just in case. Just in case
of what, Brianna?

You're 15 years old. I'm almost 16.

I'm trying to be responsible.

Isn't that what you want? What I want is
for you to be abstinent.

Who says I'm having sex?

Well, if you're not having sex, what are
you doing with these?

They're just for protection.

I see girls dropping out of school all
the time because they get pregnant.

I don't want to be like them.

You know what it's like?

I mean, you were in high school a long,
long, long, long, long time ago.

Okay, Brianna, you know what? It wasn't
that long ago.

Okay, and I have been exactly where you
are.

Baby, I was one of the lucky ones. I was
too scared to have sex.

Now, my girl Yvette, on the other hand,
she did whatever she wanted with whoever

she wanted.

We both wanted to become nurses.

But by the time the rest of us had
graduated, she'd had four abortions.

What happened to her?

Nothing.

She just became a statistic.

So then you get it.

I don't want to be like your friend,
Yvette.

All right, Brianna, I guess I do
understand.

But you gotta know that Will does not
approve of you taking these pills.

Well, can you talk to him?

Please?

All right, Brianna, I'm going to talk to
him.

All right, but he's going to want to
talk to you, too.

All right.

We'll talk when I get back from the
game.

Thanks, Sasha.

Hey, Will. Bye, Will.

Where are you going?

I'm just going to go meet my friends at
the game.

Okay, so you two... Yeah, we talked.

Oh, yeah? Mm -hmm. And you're okay?

And you know we're just looking out for
you, right?

Yeah, no, thanks.

Okay, well, enjoy the game.

All right.

Hey, wait.

Don't have too much fun.

Yeah, okay, I'll have an okay time.

Oh, wait, wait.

I got something for you.

You did? Yeah.

Okay. Wait, do you see this?

Bam!

Stop being nasty.

Courtesy of Uncle Brown.

You are. Keep it on.

Don't take it off.

You look great.

Oh, my God.

She took that pretty well.

I let her keep the pill, Will.

You what?

I thought we agreed.

Okay, Will, she brought up some good
points.

She doesn't have a point.

She's a little girl trying to make adult
decisions, and you know her.

She's going to take advantage of this.
Will, you're going to have to be more

trusting.

Like I trusted you to take care of this?

No, but instead of standing by me, you
took her side.

Will, this is not about taking sides.

You know just as well as I do that you
can talk to that girl until you're blue

in the face, but she's still going to do
what she wants to do.

Makes two of you.

You hate me.

What do you think you're doing coming in
this late, Brianna?

I lost track of time. It's no big deal.
No big deal?

You got school tomorrow. You were
supposed to be here hours ago. Where

Brianna?

With some friends.

Okay, no, you're going to have to be
more specific than that.

You could have been out there doing
something that you're going to regret

the rest of your life.

Well, thanks to you, I'm on the pill,
so...

You don't have to worry about taking in
another stray.

Those pills don't give you an excuse to
go out there and get buck wild.

You still have to be responsible.

Chill out!

Kasha, you're not my mother.

Oh, no, baby. I know I'm not your
mother, but where the hell is she, huh?

And where is she gonna be when that
first little boy breaks your heart?

Or when you turn up pregnant? Or when
you come home with an STD or HIV, huh?

I want you to know that those little
pills that you got are not going to

you against that.

And then you are going to be living the
rest of your life with those regrets, no

matter who your mama is.

Maybe I shouldn't have said that.

Oh, no, Brianna, you said what you
meant.

And now I went out on a limb for you,
and now my husband is not talking to me

for you to treat me like this?

But shut it!

Now, I'm going to tell you this once and
one time only.

You don't have to like my decisions. You
don't even have to like me.

But you are going to respect the rules
of this house.

And if you don't like that, you can just
march your little stuff on out there

and go find your mama.

I'm coming.

You all right, Cora?

I don't know about all right.

Why would you say that?

Well,

first off, you fell off the bike.

I'll be honest with you. I've never seen
anybody pop a wheelie on a stationary

bike before.

That's me always trying something new.

Please, just put it in my hand.

Can you open that for me?

Thank you so much.

All right.

You know, now, the last time I was at
your house, Madea chased me away with a

shotgun.

Well, I don't live with my mother
anymore. I'm a mature, responsible woman

But of course. Right. Now I live with my
daddy.

Isn't this where that weird Brown family
used to live?

Remember, it was a crazy bald -headed
guy. He always dressed like a rummage

and sounded like Mike Tyson.

Cover them game shows.

They get on my nerves.

That's my dad.

So, Brown and Madea?

Yep.

That's exactly what I think about it.
Every time I think about that...

down the street in the greenhouse.

Oh, I'm surprised you still recognize
Cora after all these years.

Yeah, things have changed on her.

I must say, you haven't changed a bit. I
got to tell you, Mr. Brown, you look

like you might be wearing the same
clothes you wore last time I saw you.

Well, you know, good polyester never
goes out of stock.

Yeah, well, really it does.

No, it don't.

Now, Gordy, you say Gordy?

Gordon. Yeah. Gordon.

What's your mama name?

Miss Regina.

You're Regina's boy?

Yes, sir. Look at you.

Corbin, this the one. He used to pee in
the bed till he was 12 years old.

I was 11.

That's why mama say he wet the bed so
much he had to sleep with a life jacket

on.

And on top of that, his mama was nasty.

Nasty, Corbin.

think that's funny but we used to call
you brown the amazing clown we used to

call you the polyester prince the human
crayon cover

you're gonna sit here and laugh at him
let him dish your daddy like that

What would you like in your coffee?

You said I'm too young to drink coffee.

Oh, yeah, I know, but... I said you were
too young to take the pill, but you

didn't have a problem with that.

All right, come on, another lecture?

No, Brianna, it's not.

Okay, Will and I sat down to discuss
things, and we decided that if you're

sexually active... I told you guys I'm
not having sex! Good, then you don't

to be taking the pill, right?

I was just trying to be responsible.

You know what, Brianna?

We respect that.

Okay, baby, you remember you told me
that you wanted us to trust you.

Okay, well, here's an opportunity to
prove to us that we can.

We're taking the pills from you,
sweetheart.

But listen, we're going to hold on to
them.

And when you're ready to talk about sex,
you bring it to us and we'll talk about

it as a family.

Okay?

Oh, you got this one, baby.

Uh, okay.

Careful, Mr. Brown. This is... Oh!

You didn't have to bring me to school,
Mr. Brown. Now, of course, what was

embarrassing is sitting there watching
you try to put that girdle on for two

hours.

The little kid in the bed is in my room,
no way. Well, you had dope.

Well, it was cracked a little bit.

You what happened?

Thank you so much for your help, but you
can leave now.

You ain't got to instruct me to do
nothing.

You going to trade me for him?

You going to leave me for him?

But just remember, if he falls asleep,
you better have a mop somewhere handy.

Be rooted.

I'll get you to eat some right now.

I knew I wasn't ready for a spinning
class. I don't know what possessed me.

Of course.

You didn't have to tell me you were into
spinning just for us to spend time

together. We could have done something
that you wanted to do. Well, you want to

try it again?

Well, yeah, but first there's something
I think I need to tell you.

Oh, Lord, here we go.

Don't tell me you still peeing in the
bed.

I haven't peed in the bed since I was 13
years old. Now, wait. Now, you told me

11.

Whatever.

spending a little more time together at,
uh, co -working.

Oh, you got the job?

I got the job.

Oh! Oh!

Congratulations!

Well, this calls for a celebration.

And I know just how we should celebrate.

Oh, okay, okay. What's that?

Well, there's this kickboxing class.

I'm gonna kick you.

I told you, it's always easier the
second time around. You're right. I

believe how good I feel.

Don't you agree, Mr. Brown?

I can't

stop.

Why do you let him do this to your
daddy?

I'm going to slap both of y 'all.
