Hey. Hey, Barbara Jean.

Where you been for the last couple of
days, and when you going back?

Forgive me for not dropping by as much
as we would both like, but since the

hurricane, I have been swamped with my
volunteer duties as head of the Save the

Dog campaign, or as I like to call it,
STD.

So how's your little foster puppy
working out? Oh, great.

He's so cute.

Jake's been playing with him all morning
and being so jealous that he put bacon

fat behind his ears.

That's how I got Brock.

Listen, we got a problem.

What's up? The dogs' family saw the
picture I put online, and after the

hurricane, they were bused here to
Houston, so they're going to be here in

ten minutes.

Oh, well, we knew it was going to
happen. It just happened sooner than we

expected.

We better go break the news to Jake.

This thing will be easy.

I think I'm going to call him Jake Jr.

I love him so much, I want him to be my
son.

Oh, Lord.

Reba, this is the most painful part of
STD.

Hey, Jake.

We have some great news about the dog.

You know how we talked about the best
situation would be if his family found

and could come get him?

Well, they have, and they're coming by
to pick him up today.

You going to be okay with this?

Mom, it's not about me.

Jake Jr. is going to be with his family.

That's why we did this.

My sweet, sweet little man. You
understand charity.

Even though it's hard on us, we always
help those in need.

You get that.

Which reflects well on me.

It's them.

Okay, now remember, these people have
had a tough time.

Let's make sure that we stay upbeat and
positive and not dwell on everything

that they've been through. Got it, Van?

Hi, I'm Ruby Jackson, and this is my
grandson, Darnell.

Oh, you poor, miserable wretches.

You were almost swallowed up by the sea.

Farm team, let them go. They suffered
enough.

Hi, I'm Reba Hart.

Hi, Reba.

Grandma, it's Jambalaya.

This is so kind of you, Reba. Well,
Ruby, actually, the kindness was mine.

Hi, I'm Barbara Jean Hart, and I'm the
face of STD.

Well, thank you all for taking care of
our dog. Well, we were very happy to.

We're very glad that Jambalaya gets to
go home with his family.

Well, unfortunately, he's not.

We're staying down at the shelter and
they don't take pets.

But a kennel has volunteered to take
him. A kennel? You mean doggy jail?

No, a shelter like the one that we're
living in except for dogs.

But thank you for pointing out the
similarities to jail.

Come on, baby. We got to get back to the
shelter now.

Okay, you know what?

We have plenty of room. Why don't y 'all
just stay here with us, all of you?

Oh, no, Reba, that's asking too much.
No, it's not, really.

Really, we can make room.

Stay with us. Don't go back down there
to that shelter. Yeah, it's horrible and

cold and full of homeless people.

Does she live here?

No. Then we'll stay.

stupid copy machine breaks down every
other day, and so I took the flyer and I

put it in the fax machine, but then the
fax machine jammed, so we don't have any

flyers for our open house tomorrow.

You think you had it rough? I had to
listen to you all the way home.

I'm sorry, Van. I'm just in a terrible
mood.

I really shouldn't be around people
today.

This is H.

Do you see him, too?

is changing fast. Who I am is who I want
to be.

A single mom who works too hard, who
loves her kids and never stops.

Oh, Ruby girl, you're so crazy.

Yo, Reeves, man.

What's up?

Hey, Barbara Jean.

What is going on here? A miracle.

Grandma Ruby finally got in touch with
her family, and she was going to meet

at the shelter, but I said, that's
silly.

There's tons more room at Reba's house.

Barbara Jean, did you do something with
your hair?

Yeah, yeah. Do you like it?

Felicia did it. I won't have to wash my
hair for a month.

Something smells great and I'm hungry.

What an awesome convergence of
circumstances.

I feel you, V.

There's food in the kitchen, you know
what I'm saying?

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

Word.

I don't have enough room here for all
these people. First off, they're called

peep.

And they're only here for dinner, so
chill, girlfriend.

I love that.

You're the whitest person in Texas. Stop
talking like that.

Oh, no, she didn't.

Aren't you going to ask me why I have 20
black people in my living room?

I noticed you had a lot of people. I
didn't notice the color of their skin.

There he is.

There's my little piece of white
chocolate.

Oh, good, Barbara Jean. You did your
hair.

And just in time for our formal dinner
at the club.

That's right.

I got to get my bling bling.

Keep it trilly, y 'all.

Later.

Oh, I totally know what you guys must be
going through. I have been through some

really hard stuff myself.

First, I got pregnant in high school.
And on top of that, I got myself a

drinking problem.

You know, but I guess every family has
problems like that.

Hey, girls, take that into the other
room and make sure that everyone has

to eat.

And keep away from her.

This is so good. What is it?

Jambalaya.

What?

Why would you do that? I love that dog.

Van, the dog's outside in the yard. Then
what dog?

I went to the store and bought some food
and cooked it.

Oh.

Well, it's really good.

So you got to wear the same clothes for
two weeks? Yep.

That's awesome.

The most I've ever gone in three days.
That's when I was at my dad's.

You know, Reba, I want to thank you for
everything, but we're all going back to

the shelter tonight, including Darnell
and I.

Oh.

Are you sure you're going to be okay?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, now that my family's
back together, we're going to be fine.

Mom, can't they stay?

Well, honey, it'll be a little crowded
if everybody stays.

But remember what you said about
charity.

Even though it's hard on us, we always
help those in need.

Did I say that?

Yeah, yesterday.

Yeah. I did say that.

You remembered to change shirts for
three days, but you remembered that.

So, can they all stay?

Yeah, Grandma, can we?

You know, Jake, honey, your mama's
already done enough, and who knows how

this might go on.

That doesn't matter. She does it all the
time she took me in, and I've been here

for four years.

What am I going to say, no?

Can I say no?

Of course I can.

Yeah, this is going to be great.

Hey, wouldn't it be fun if your family
stayed here for four years?

you talking about?

The line for breakfast forms are right
here.

Honey, I don't have time to wait in
line.

Oh, yeah.

Whitey jumps to the front.

Get over here.

Save my spot.

Look, I'm sorry, but I've been late for
work because I couldn't get in the

bathroom because there was such a line.
And then when I did get in, all the

towels were wet, so I couldn't take a
shower.

Oh, that's a very sad story.

If it only had a dramatic ending, like,
and then I was pulled off the roof from

my submerged home by a helicopter.

I'm not trying to be difficult. It's
just that I've been late for work for

last three mornings.

Oh, that is a very sad story, Mrs. H.

If it only had a dramatic ending, like,
the next thing I knew, I was floating

down Main Street in a laundry basket.

Knock it off, Van.

Oh, thank you, Aubrey.

I brought you a plate. We were running
out of sausage. I wanted you to have

some. Oh, man, it's my favorite.

Darnell. Sorry.

You can have it, Mrs. Hart. We're very
grateful.

Yeah, well, thanks, Ruby, but I'll just
get a bagel on the way to work. Thanks.

Dibs. Hey. Shut up, Darnell.

You can practically taste the South and
the Cajun influence.

What do you call them?

Eggos.

That is so cute.

Here we call them waffles.

Okay, guys, if you need me, I'll be at
the office. I really got to get going.

Oh, okay. You want me to call you a cab
or are you going to take the bus?

I was thinking about taking my car, but
is there a line for it, too? Yeah,

kinda. Yeah, I lent it to Cassandra and
Felicia. They have to go downtown and

file a claim with the government, pick
up a temporary cell phone, and then on

the way back, I'm treating them to hair
extension.

Mom, it's very important for their self
-esteem.

Hey, you should get some.

Shut up, Van. I have gorgeous hair.

Okay, the bus it is. I'm going to be
late for work again.

Oh, it's a very sad story.

If it only had a dramatic end... Van!

I will pull your tongue out.

Dog food is so gross.

I know.

It's like you cooked it.

I don't know what it is, but I've got a
horrible headache.

Get back!

Get down!

Look, there's a cat!

Barbara Jean, how come I've got a whole
house full of people and all you've got

is just a yard full of dogs?

Well, I invited Ruby and her family to
stay with me, but they...

You know, Cheyenne, maybe you, me, and
the baby should stay over here for a

little while. What are you talking
about? Oh, you know, because living at

house is hell.

It is not. It is, too, Mom. There's way
too many people.

I can never get to the bathroom. I can
never watch what I want on TV. And Van's

been snoring.

You think this has been easy on me?

They're killing me at Domino's.

Well, I, for one, am disappointed.

I think you two should take a page from
your mother's book and learn how to be a

good person. I want them gone.

What? I can't help it. I've got people
everywhere in my house and they're all

thanking me.

And the whole time I'm thinking to
myself, you're welcome. Now get out.

I think, is it because we're black?

Barbara Jr., you're white.

You're the whitest person in Holland.

You know, this charity thing is so much
harder when you have to live it. I mean,

why can't I just write a check and go on
about my business?

Because you don't have any money, Mom.

Just kick them out of the house, Mrs. H.

I can't do that. Not after everything
they've been through.

Well, then do something that'll make
them want to leave. Play that country

you like so much.

me to kick those poor people out of my
house because we're not comfortable?

People, are we all really that shallow?

Some of us, yes.

Well, I can't do it. Even though it's
going to make us miserable, we're going

help those people and we're going to be
happy doing it. I agree with Reba. Oh,

stick a sock in it, Snoop Dogg.

Don't be a hater, Rebizzle.

big this place is until you see it
empty.

I know.

Send everybody down to the park so kids
can play.

Oh, that's a nice idea.

Nice ain't got nothing to do with it.
They were driving me nuts.

You know, Reba, ever since that
hurricane, all I've heard is noise.

Every day, all day, just noise.

Do you know what that's like?

Have you met Barbara Jean?

Yeah, that whole new wife hanging around
all the time situation.

Is that a white thing, or are you just
crazy?

I guess I'm just crazy.

Well, if you wasn't, you wouldn't have
18 strangers moving in on you.

So I thank God that all your screws
aren't tight, Reba.

Hey, Ruby, we need to talk.

This is what you miss.

What? This picture of your family.

Now, it might sound crazy, but it's not
the house or the furniture or all that

big stuff that you miss.

It's the picture.

That little old jewelry box that Donnell
made me out of tongue depressors.

Well, that and my lazy boy recliner.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

Jake once made me a potholder made out
of paper towels.

Bet you saved it. No, it burst into
flames.

What do you want to talk to me about,
Reba?

Nothing, I'm fine.

Reba, you got 18 people living in your
house and there's nothing you need to

talk to me about?

Okay, I'm not fine. I'm losing my mind.

I should be happy doing this. I should
have joy in my heart, but I'm miserable.

Of course you are.

Girl, if Uncle Tyrone leaves one more
wet towel in a bowl on the floor, I'm

going to slap the black off of myself.

So it's okay that this isn't easy?

Honey,

we had a good laughter.

Tends not to be easy.

But I got something I need to tell you.

What? That's why I sent everybody down
to the park.

We're leaving.

No, no, it's not that tough on us. You
got to stay.

Reba, my son called.

He's coming tonight.

And we're going back to New Orleans.
He's going to work for that Habitat for

Humanity. We're going to rebuild our
city.

So you're going back.

It's going to be hard.

Well, it ain't no harder than living
with a crazy white family.

You know, the problem with all this is
there's no instruction manual.

Really? No.

Come here, Reba.

Read your Bible right there.

I was hungry and you gave me something
to eat.

I was thirsty and you gave me something
to drink.

I was a stranger.

And you invited me in.

Oh, Ruby, I'm going to miss you.

I really am.

I'm going to miss you too, Reba.

Blonde with the braids, not so much.

Here's a picture of your crazy

white family to go in your new home.

Well, I'm guessing that your neighbors
have noticed the 18 black people down at

the park.

Hey,

Reba.

Barbara Jean, it's been three weeks.

When are you going to get rid of those
silly cornrows?

Reba, I like how this looks.

I like what it says about me.

And plus...

out to the garage and get my weed
whacker.

Don't!

Hey, Mom.

We got a letter from Ruby. Oh.

Read it.

Dear Reba, we're back in New Orleans and
working with Habitat for Humanity.

It's so beautiful seeing hundreds of
strangers pitching in and building house

after house.

You should come down here.

It's something to see. Plus, we miss
you.

Reba, we should go down there.

I would really love to help out.

Oh, Barbara Jean, I don't think that's a
good idea.

Well, why not?

I'm going to say this as delicately as I
can.

She didn't like you.

But if you do come down, please be sure
to bring Barbara Jean with you.

See?

I told all these people about her, and
no one believes me.

We can rebuild one family at a time.
Thank you, and God bless.
