All language subtitles for Girlfriends s04e06 Inherit the Lynn

Life just isn't fair.

I mean, I finally meet the love of my
life. We spend the most incredible night

together. And he just gets up and goes
to Cannes. You mean he rolled over and

went to the Cannes? No cuddling? No
jewelry?

That's just wrong.

No.

He didn't go to the Cannes, Tony. He
went to Cannes, France.

You mean Cannes, France.

Tony, it's Cannes.

As somebody's Fresno is showing.

It's cons.

No, it's can.

Okay, girl, you're really worrying me.

Oh, Francois?

Cest and twinette cover.

Voulez -vous coucher cons?

What? I said, how do you say cons?

You know where the film festival is?

Uh -huh.

Really?

Mercy.

So what do you think? He said your mama.
Yeah.

I'm here to pay my tuition.

Congratulations. You can read the sign
that says pay tuition here.

You're going to be a real credit to the
university.

Okay, you know what? You don't have to
be nasty.

Next.

Okay, all right.

I'm here to have my money order paid in
full. There you go.

Actually paid in part.

Come again?

Tuition's gone up 30%. Okay, I barely
came up with this. We're in a severe

budget crunch.

I don't have that kind of money.
Consider yourself crunched. Excuse me,

me. You know what? Y 'all should have
notified somebody.

Consider yourself notified.

Next.

Brock misses me so much that he's flying
me to Cannes for the weekend.

So, I was wondering if you could house
it so you could be here when SBC gets

here to install my DSL.

Okay. I could pretend to be busy, but...

I respect our friendship too much.

So I'll say, girl, please.

Tony, come on. I've waited three months
for this appointment, and I do so much

for you.

Yeah, but I'm an ingrate.

Girl, you need to find some poor schmuck
who has nothing going on.

Oh, yeah, I got nothing going on.

Well, except for that grant proposal.
But now that I have access to a computer

and snacks, I can knock that baby out.

Wait a minute, back it up.

What grant proposal?

Oh, yeah. The Thompson Foundation is
interested in funding me for a

Lynn, that's great.

Why am I just hearing about this now?

Because I don't have a phone.

Hello? William does.

Oh, yeah. He kicked me out.

Oh, he kicked you out? Where have you
been staying?

If anybody asks, I'm 16, I'm a runaway,
and I'm pregnant.

You do not look 16.

Hey, these are hard.

The partners are going to overlook the
fact that you missed the deadline and

you into the continuing education
program.

Oh, my God!

Here's your money.

Oh, my God!

William, I can't believe this.

Man, you really went to bat for me.

You know, I didn't even know that this
program even existed.

You know, Joe never told me.

You know, I'd hate to think she was
trying to hold me back, but you know

That is okay. I'm over it. That has been
the past, because thanks to you, I'm

in.

Oh, well, congratulations, young co -ed.
Now you go matriculate.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

William, this is cash.

Oh, yeah.

I mean, I told those old skin flints,
cash, ASAP!

That's the kind of pull I have around
here, my. You see, big baller, shot

caller.

William, thank you, but I can't take
your money. Come on, Maya, take the

No, okay? I missed the deadline. It's my
fault.

Or Jones.

Take the money.

I'll apply next year.

If I don't spend that money on you, I'm
going to spend it on another pewter

statue of the defensive little round
top.

Sure, it's beautiful and it depicts the
bayonet charge, but my display case is

full. Stop it, Maya.

William,

Thank you.

Hey, it was really, really, really sweet
of you.

But I'll be fine.

Very well. If that's the way you want
it.

Get the Franklin men on the phone.

Tell them it's William. I know, I know.

and then we giggled all night about how
you called Kay and Colin.

And then we made amour.

That's love.

And then the next morning we had petit
déjeuner.

That's breakfast.

And then we made more amour. That's
extra love.

Well, next time you can drive your own
derriere back from the airport.

That's ass. Oh, and you, that's extra
ass.

Hi, girl.

Bonjour, mon ami.

How's the proposal?

And how's my, how do you say, oh, DSL?
Oh, it's amazing.

Look at the streaming video of a live
sex show in Bangkok.

That's a real chicken.

Lynn, have you even worked on your
proposal?

I did, and it's all right here.

Okay, well, why don't you pull it out of
there and put it in there?

That's my plan. But in order to put it
in there, I'm going to need a couple

weeks here.

No.

It's a creative process. You can't force
inspiration.

Yeah, well, I can't afford to foot the
bill while you abuse my DSL.

Speaking of abuse, what the hell's going
on in Bangkok?

Come on, Joan. I'll pay rent. How about
$400 for the month?

Oh, so now it's a month? Then what, huh?
A month turns into a year?

Uh, no.

Hey, you were not adopted.

Yeah.

Do you have any idea what it's like
living your whole life knowing your

just got rid of you? Hey, I prayed every
day that my sharecropper parents would

pass me off to some rich white city
folks.

There are millions of people who have
been adopted and they still manage to

their work done. Well, I'm sorry if I
can't abandon my abandonment issues.

You don't have abandonment issues. You
have procrastination issues. The point

I have issues.

And I need a safe, loving place to work
through them. So get off my back and let

me move in.

Trust me. It's for your own good. Come
on. Oh, well, she just... Joan, are you

just going to throw me out on the
street?

No, I'm going to throw you out on the
porch. You're going to wait and see.

No, you need to quit hiding in someone
else's guest room and get on with your

life.

Okay.

I don't know why you're still sitting
there looking at that porn when you know

she's headed to your house.

Tony said it would be all right.

Sorry, Lynn. I already got one broken
roommate. I do not need another.

Lynn, sweetie, wait.

Yeah? Don't put this shit on your way
out.

Hey, guess who's moving back, roomie?

In the words of Edgar Allan Poe,
nevermore.

Come on Maya, I know you're in there.

730 to 730. If you're in there during
this time, you're gone, okay?

All right, I got to go. I'm late.

Hand me my keys, girl.

Okay, my purse, your rent, slash my
tuition money, this, coffee.

Okay, bye, girl. I'll see you later.

All right, see you tonight.

I forgot one

thing, girl.

I forgot my son, Jabari.

And if you ever kiss me again, you gone.

Come on.

Oh, yeah. And whether you finish that
proposal or not, in a month, you gone.

Tomorrow's another day.

Hey, how was your... How was your day?

Uh... How was your proposal?

Uh... Well, tomorrow's another day.

Never mind.

You know, I know I shouldn't say that,
but what I like most about today is the

fact that I don't have to pay for any of
my broke friends.

Oh, sorry, Tony.

Hey, don't feel sorry for me. Todd's the
one who's broke.

God bless Tony Child, who's got an own.

Mrs. Garrett, this card has been
declined. Do you have another?

Oh, of course.

Joan?

I was told I was supposed to show you my
receipt, which is right here. I'm paid

in full, and I would like to register
for these four classes.

These classes require the prerequisite.
Let me see your transcript.

Oh. I went to several

different schools, but as you can see, I
did the bulk of my work at CIELS.

Well, I'm sure the City of Industry
Academy of Life Sciences is a good

Only units from accredited schools will
transfer.

Oh. Okay, well, I didn't read that in
your brochure.

Well, then read my lips. This ain't
going to work.

Well, what about MIT?

Huh? You're telling me the MIT isn't
accredited? Well, I didn't see MIT

here. Woody, it's right there.

Monrovia Institute of Typing. Mm -hmm.

That ain't going to work either, boo.

All right, come on, girl. Come on, Lucy.

Roof.

Sister, woman, child, a guy. Come on,
Mama.

Girl, you know how hard it is for a
black woman out there trying to make it

her own, scratching for services?

Look, I need this job, and I'm not about
to lose it trying to hook a sister,

child, woman, a guy up.

So you want to take freshman English to
what? Because it's filling up. No, I

don't.

Okay, I cannot be a freshman again. I'm
supposed to be a junior. And if I have

to start all over again, I'm never going
to graduate.

I've been trying to finish school now
for the last nine years.

I've been trying to take my lunch for
the last 20 minutes, so what you saying?

I'm saying that I cannot be a freshman
again.

And I can't wait on my lunch any longer.
Mama hungry.

Hey.

Don't you want to talk?

Not really.

Well, I do.

I finally figured it out.

What, your documentary?

No, my life.

It all makes perfect sense.

I'm a depressive.

See, I have this fear of failure, which
then snowballed into an anxiety

disorder, which left untreated, turned
into full -blown depression.

You came up with all that today, and you
can't come up with an idea for your

documentary?

Oh, come on! I just realized that I'm
depressed.

That's exciting.

Well, do you think within your
excitement, you know, you could have

time to clean up this mess?

Sorry, I'll clean it up. I just had a
really hard day.

Hard day?

Please. Hard for Lynn, seriously. It's
getting up before noon.

Heartful and Searcy is figuring out what
TV show to watch.

Heartful and Searcy is deciding whether
or not to take a shower that day, and

today you make the wrong decision.

Maya, I... No, let me tell you about
hard.

Hard is for people out there who haul
themselves out of bed every damn

all right, to go to a job they hate,
just so they can come home, go to bed,

up, and do it all over again the next
day.

Okay, it's finding the energy to spend
time with your kids after you've worked

all day, made dinner, then have to clean
up after some raggedy -ass mooch and

squatter you had to take in because of a
job you hate.

Doesn't pay enough.

Raggedy ass? Yeah. Mooching? Maybe. But
squatter? I paid you rent.

And don't bring all that drama up in
here because I am depressed.

You are not depressed.

You're lazy.

You sit up here with your five degrees
and you do nothing.

You are lazy, Lynn.

And I don't respect you.

That is no way to talk to a depressed
person.

And you know what else?

I think she's intentionally putting meat
in all the meals.

I mean, come on, who cuts up little hot
dogs and puts them in their mac and

cheese, huh? Who?

Actually, Mama has a recipe.

But do I say anything?

No. Instead, I'm stuck there eating
nothing but a roll of cookie dough.

Well, you could go to the store. But you
don't get to do the most.

I mean, it's like just because she's had
a hard day, I haven't. suffer then shut

up you know maya went to enroll for
school today and found out she's got to

start all over again you know what she's
gonna do she's gonna roll up her

sleeves and she's gonna do it and you
know why because sometimes people get

knocked on their ass and they still find
a way to get back up and keep going you

hadn't even been knocked down yet you
can't get up what the hell are you doing

maybe i'm pacing myself You're teasing
yourself, Lynn. Sometimes I have to

and see if you're breathing.

Why haven't you done your proposal?

Because all my ideas suck.

Come on, Lynn. You just keep writing
until they don't suck.

Lynn, you can do this.

You did this before.

But what if I can't? I'm going to need
some more olives.

Jabari, baby, go to your room. Do your
work.

Listen, I just wanted to say I'm sorry.

I completely embarrassed myself, and the
last thing I wanted to do was to lose

your respect.

So I'll just get my stuff and go.

Although it doesn't really look like I
have anything.

Except for maybe...

There's Olive.

With her pointy sword.

Lane, girl, hold up.

Hold on.

Look, I'm a woman of my word.

Plus, I already spent your rent money on
my tuition.

So, you can stay.

Oh, thank God.

Because I really didn't have anywhere to
go.

really happy living your life this way
no not

since i'm running out of houses to hide
in i figured i better get off my ass and

do something okay so my next documentary
is going to be titled single mother's

lives in the balance wasn't your eighth
documentary called lives in the balance

oh yeah that's why i heard that anyway
it's gonna be about zero

and ambitions and their struggles and
their dreams.

And I was hoping I could start off by
interviewing you.

What do you say?

Oh, girl.

Lynn, you know, unless it's a paying
gig, I really don't have time.

I gotta make dinner for my son.

Well, I can't pay you, bud.

If I get this grant, I can move out
sooner.

Okay, Jabari's got Skittles.

I'm sorry for having you pick up the tab
at the bar, but I'm not one of your

broke friends, okay?

Today, lunch is on me.

Thank you.

So what do you think about getting...
I'm drawn to the pecan chicken.

You know, Joan, that's what I like about
you.

You put on a few pounds, but you don't
let that stop you from ordering the most

fattening thing on the menu.

You think I gained weight?

Oh, sweetie, it's not about what I
think.

If Brock likes husky women, you go with
that pecan on chicken.

Are you guys ready to order? Yeah, um,
I'm just, I'm going to have the

salad, thanks.

We'll be splitting that.

And, um, two waters?

Yeah.

Fine. I'll pay. In that case, I'll have
the pecan on chicken.
