There's no place like home.

With your family around you, you're
never alone.

When you know that you love, you don't
need to roam.

Cause there's no place like home.

Times are changing every day.

We won't get by with those same old
ways.

Pulling together, we'll make it right.

With your family around you, you're
never alone.

When you know that you love, you don't
need to run.

mom

Hi, Grandma.

How did it go, baby?

Not too good, Grandma.

Calvin, you want to go to the movies
with me and Tiffany?

Nah, I'm a little short on cash.

Oh, well, I can lend you the money.

Hey, no woman's going to pay my way.

Especially not that one.

Sorry, Calvin, I just wanted you to come
with me.

Yeah, well, thanks anyway, Brynn. I'll
check y 'all later. Okay, bye.

Bye, Calvin. Come on in, Calvin, and
I'll make you a nice hot cup of cocoa.

Yes, ma 'am.

Well, what's the matter with Calvin?

He's so quiet.

Not that I'm complaining.

Poor boy. He's been trying so hard to
find some part -time work.

Is he still looking for a job?

Well, he'd like to have his own spending
money.

And the responsibility means a lot to
him. Hey, if he can get a job.

You know, it's hard for teenagers to get
any work. And it's even tougher for

black teenagers.

Yeah, that's a shame.

It sure is.

Seems like we should know somebody who
could help Calvin.

Somebody who's respected and well -liked
at his job.

Or somebody who's married to somebody
who's respectful and liked on his own

Somebody who could persuade that
respected and well -liked person to ask

there's anything available at his
construction job.

I think you hear my phone. Now, Mary,
Mary, Mary.

Now, certainly you can ask Lester if he
can see if there's anything available

for Calvin. I'd really appreciate it,
Mary.

I don't think Calvin would like
construction.

You know, it's a dirty job.

If it's a J -O -B job, Calvin is
interested.

Well, what I mean is I don't think the
job is right for someone of Calvin's

talents.

Did he try the record shop?

Uh -huh. What about the chicken place?

Uh -huh.

New set?

Uh -huh.

It's a shame the kid can't find a job.

So you'll speak to Lester?

Well, I guess I could.

Oh, great. I'm not promising anything.

Oh, well, thank you, Mary. I'd
appreciate anything Lester can do.

Oh, Mary, that was real sweet of you.

Well, Pearl's right.

The job would be good for Calvin.

And for me.

Oh, how's that?

The more time he spends on the job, the
less time he spends around Brendan. Oh,

Mary!

Mary, you know you like that boy.

Of course I do.

Wonder if Lester could find him a part
-time job overseas.

Ladies.

Sandra, what happened?

Well, for your information, I was in a
terrible car accident and received

extensive injuries.

Were you driving?

No, I was in the back seat.

Well, with the proper care, I'll heal in
time.

Oh, you got a smudge on your cheek.

Metal?

Evidently. Very

convincing. Thank you.

My lawyer explained the importance of
pain in my litigation.

You have a lawyer?

Yes, 54 Bush.

I met him in the emergency room last
night.

He's a charming man.

And a super jerk.

I've seen his TV commercials.

Yeah. If your cash flows low, don't
forget Swifty. He'll sue for big bucks

give you a checkbook elliptic.

that I should be compensated. This
injury has impaired my job performance.

Well, you better be glad it's not
whiplash.

Yeah, it could be much worse.

Yeah, you'd be in a neck brace.

Really? Hmm.

Well, I'm off to Swifty's office for a
consultation.

Hey, everybody.

Say, Sandra, what happened to you?

I was in the right place.

What do you two want?

What makes you think we want something?

You only get that look in your eyes for
one of two reasons. Either you want

something or you want something.

Oh!

We're trying to help Calvin find a job.

Yes, you see, Pearl said he was looking
very hard for a job, so we thought you

could go to him.

I'm home.

Oh, at last.

Daddy, did you get Calvin a job? And how
was your day?

Where's your manners?

Now go in the kitchen and get your
father's meatloaf, which is all dried

because he's late and didn't call.

And we were worried and wondering why.

I was talking to my supervisor about a
job for Calvin. I knew it. When does he

start? How do you know I got him the
job?

Because you're the best daddy in the
whole world.

Yeah, that's my girl.

starts tomorrow.

All right, I'm going to tell Calvin.

You think something about meatloaf?

That's for you, for being so sweet.

I was glad to do it. Where's that
meatloaf? Oh, what kind of job did you

him? He's going to be helping me after
school and on Saturdays doing a small

job. What kind of small job?

Small, Mary, as opposed to big.

Mr. Jenkins, this greatest thing never
happened to me. I won't let you down, I

promise. You're welcome, Calvin.

Oh, it was just wonderful of you,
Lester. Oh, we're not interrupting your

dinner, are we? Oh, no, no.

Bless you, bless you.

You turned the boy's whole life around.

Well, I was glad to do it.

Where's Brenda? Oh, she went down to
tell everybody.

I'll go get her.

Thanks, Mr. Jenkins.

Well, how...

Terrific. We got a lot done today.

Mm -hmm.

Every day, that building seemed to get a
little bit higher.

Calvin, why don't you just put that
down? Oh, where should I put it? Down,

Down.

No, you go on home.

It's all right, really.

All right, then. Well, see you tomorrow,
partner.

It didn't go over. Okay, huh?

Mary, the boy is a walking disaster.

Honey, he just started. He's bound to
make a few mistakes.

An error in judgment here and there I
could live with. But I asked him to help

mix the mint, and he left a shovel in
the mixer.

Now it's part of the sidewalk.

Then he poured tar on O'Donnelly's head.
His toupee is permanently glued to his

stomach.

Honey, can't you find him a job far away
from everything and everybody?

Mary, believe me.

Calvin is not cut out for the
construction business.

Besides, the supervisor said he has to
go.

Oh, I'm sorry.

It's all my fault.

Yeah, it is.

No, it's nobody's fault. It just didn't
work out, that's all.

Pearl!

Lester, I just want to thank you again
and again for giving Calvin a job.

are filled with sunshine.

Every morning when I wake up, I say,
thank you, Lord.

Thank you for Lester.

Well, I could kiss the ground you walk
on.

No, no, no, no, no.

Have a seat, Pearl.

Um, this is your favorite, a sweet
potato pie and a bottle of homemade

I stalled the grapes myself.

I think there's something... No, no, no.

Honey, let me tell you. What is it,
Lester? If there's anything I can do to

repay you for what you've done for me
and my boy, you just name it.

Pearl, as you know, Calvin's been
working with me for several days now,

certainly have done a good job of
raising him.

Pearl, I imagine you're not too familiar
with the construction business, but

it's difficult and very demanding.

Mrs. Shea.

Hi, baby. Hi, Daddy.

How was your day today?

Calvin says it was great, but I want to
hear it from you.

She wants to hear it from you.

Uh, Brenda Sugar, why don't you just sit
down over there?

Uh, Brenda, Pearl, I imagine you're not
too familiar with the construction

business.

I understand it's very demanding.

That's right.

And it's for that reason that we've got
to fire Calvin.

Before you say anything, Calvin is very
sweet.

And we like him a lot.

But it just didn't work out.

Lester has a responsibility to the
people he works for. And they say Calvin

to go.

You do understand.

They don't understand.

Oh, I understand, all right.

I've seen some people do some low -down
things.

But this is the low -downest of the low
-down.

Well, try to see it from my point of
view. Calvin's just not cut out for the

construction business.

But, Daddy, you can't do this to him.
You can't do this to me.

Brenda, your father did everything he
could. The supervisor made the decision.

And that's that.

Well, then I'm not speaking to either
one of you two again.

Me neither.

Okay, okay, be mad at me if you like,
but there's nothing more I can do. How

many times do I have to explain it?

Come in.

Hi, everybody.

One more time.

I let my grandma down.

I let my parents down.

I let my children down.

Calvin, you don't have any children.

Yeah.

Years from now, people will say, there's
Calvin Dowd. He was never good at

anything.

Who are you kidding? Nobody's even going
to remember your name.

You're a big help, Tiffany.

Well, this is boring listening to Calvin
moan and groan.

Let's go inside.

Tiffany, my man is feeling down.

My place is by his side.

Cheer up, Calvin.

Hi, Miss Jenkins.

Oh, hi. Come on.

Oh, cheer up, Calvin.

It's not the end of the world. So you
lost one job.

Before you threw a child, you're going
to lose a lot more than that.

Don't forget I said that.

Well, that's all right, Mr. Jenkins.

I'll probably never get you another job.

So what are you going to do? Sit here
all day feeling sorry for yourself?

Mom, he's feeling bad enough.

What he's feeling is self -pity.

Calvin, do you remember what Muhammad
Ali used to say? Yeah, I float like a

butterfly, sting like a bee. No, I am
the greatest.

And he was champ a lot of years because
he believed that.

Yeah, he was the greatest.

Because he didn't quit when things got
rough.

Now, you can do that, too.

You really think so?

It's not what I think. It's what you
think that counts.

Well, I better get to the laundromat
before it gets too crowded.

Why are you going to the laundromat,
Mom?

Because the washing machines are broke
again.

Anything I can do to help?

Yeah, find somebody to fix the washing
machines.

All finished.

Got a few spare washers I don't think I
need.

You know, I wouldn't be surprised if
people start calling me Mr.

Fix -It.

Mr. Brenda Fix -It.

Hello, children.

Hi, Ms. Clark. What happened to you now?

My lawyer discovered I was more
seriously injured than I thought.

About $10 ,000 worth.

Whiplash. Thank your mother for that
advice for me.

Ooh, I do hope this washer is working.

The performance last week was
questionable.

Oh, it worked fine, Miss Clark. Miss
Jenkins wanted it fixed, so I fixed it.

My, my, what an enterprising young man.

Girls, girls, stay away from my PG -13s.

unless you have a note from your mother.

Calvin, you're a lifesaver, honey.

Do you have a big date tonight, Miss
Clark?

Of course. I have a big date every
night.

Well, shouldn't you be at home resting
in your condition?

Oh, honey, why should others suffer?

Oh, no.

Allow me, Miss Clark. Oh, thank you.
Well, gang, I don't know about you,

There's a jasmine -scented bubble bath
up there with my name on it. Ta -ta.

You're terrific, Calvin. I know.

Oh,

Ro, look at my flowers.

They've been out here a month, and they
haven't grown an inch.

Maybe they're on strike.

You have to have a job to go on strike.

the scene, but you have perpetrated a
great injustice against me.

What is the problem, Sandra?

Mary, per your instructions, Calvin
sabotaged the washing machine and caused

laundry to be devastated.

Number one, I didn't give Calvin any
instructions, and number two, how is

laundry devastated?

Just look.

Is there any way to treat lace, Mary?

Construction of chiffon? I think not.
What do you want?

I'm sorry your laundry's dead. Just
sorry? Help this baby soon, Mary?

I think not. I hope you can sleep nice.

I know I won't be able to.

Well, come on. Let's go down and see
what Calvin's doing.

We?

Remember that.

Calvin?

Calvin?

Oh, hi, Mrs. Jenkins.

Calvin, what are you doing? I'm fixing
the washer.

Not according to Sandra.

Oh, yeah.

Sorry about that. But I'll just keep
working on it until I get it right.

Calvin. Come on, dear.

I'm not going to bite you. Come on.

I'm glad to see you have perseverance.

But did it ever occur to you that you're
not good with your hands?

Nope.

Watch my lips. You're not good with your
hands.

Oh, Mrs. Jenkins, I'm just not good at
anything.

Oh, Calvin, come on. You gotta be good
at something.

I make great car sounds.

That's when the car jives off a cliff
and blows up.

Think of something else.

Oh, it doesn't matter.

Even if I find a job, I could do.

I'd never get it.

Well, why not?

What do you do when you go for a job?

Well, I go in and I say, you're not
hiring, are you?

Positive. You've got to make a good
impression if you want to get hired.

How do I do that?

Well, first of all, child, please go to
the library and learn how to fill out a

job application.

And then try to find out what kind of
job you're applying for.

And dress for the job.

And then just talk.

You can talk, can't you? Oh, yes, ma
'am. I can talk and go on. You know how

grandma sits in the window. She talks.

When you're talking, Tell them why you'd
like to work for them.

That you're trustworthy, that you're
willing to learn, work hard, and that

you're a responsible person.

Oh, so that's how I get it done.

Well, maybe not at first, but don't give
up.

Nothing is perfect, so you can't be a
perfect flop.

Excuse me.

Sandra, what a gorgeous fur.

Just a little gift from a friend. Oh!

Something to compensate me for the agony
and the suffering and the pain I've

gone through.

Sure beats after.

So did you win the case?

We settled out of court.

The defendant, Mr. Raul Jimenez, was a
darling man.

And so sympathetic.

We discussed our case over dinner.
That's when I dropped my suit.

My lawsuit.

It turns out Mr. Raul's a very wealthy
industrialist. He suggested I might look

more fetching in this stove than that
brace.

Oh, my. Everything worked out well,
didn't it? Uh -huh.

Sure did.

$2 ,000 stove, $200 dinner.

How much was your lawsuit for?

$100 ,000.

He saved a bundle.

Raul is no fool.

That was a woman in pain.

Hi, Pearl.

Nice weather we're having.

Yeah, when you got a job, everything's
nice.

Now, now, Pearl, you know what they say.

It's better to forgive and to forget.

I say hold a grudge.

And gentlemen, you are looking at a
young man who is on his way up the

success. Calvin, you got a job.

No, but I got five interviews.

I'm bound to get something.

Oh, that's great, Calvin.

That's wonderful.

I knew you could do it.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Now and at this time, I'd like to thank
all...

who made this possible.

Hey, okay.

But let me just thank the entire Jenkins
family.

Brenda, who believed in me from the
beginning.

Mrs. Jenkins, who believed in me around
about the minute.

And Mr.

Jenkins for giving me my very first job.
And five, you're two.

And whose written reference helped
Calvin get those five interviews.

That's right, Grandma.

Oh, Les.

Your pie's in the oven, child.
