Previously on

all sorts of things went on.

You're not coming
to my wedding?

I guess I'm just not cut out
for the hard stuff.

I don't know.
Maybe it was just-

I was in love with not
being alone anymore.

You're not alone.
You have me.

What's this?

Amanda has initiated
legal action

to end your marriage
by filing with the courts.

Don't do this, Amanda.
Don't divorce me.

I need you.

This storm is getting worse.

Okay, we need
to move everything.

And I mean everything
we can to Mimi's right now.

[thunder claps]

Why aren't they ringing
the tornado siren?

[blustery winds]

[wind howling]

[vo] There was a mighty wind

but Frank was lost

going on inside his own mind.

[train bell]

His divorce was coming

[train whistle blows]

Careful there, Junior.

[flips alarm on]

[alarm siren wailing]

Where's the mayor?

There was a situation.

What kind of situation is
more important than this?!

There's no way a cat
got both your tongue.

Somebody needs
to speak up... now!

He had a heart attack!

Oh my gosh!

He's all right.

But he told us not
to tell anyone.

Well, why?

Well, he didn't
want to seem weak.

Better weak than dead.

What's the protocol in
this type of situation?

I don't know.

The mayor likes to lead,
and we usually let him.

Who's in charge then?

[vo] Even in the case of

if you want something

you gotta do it yourself.

Well, all right then.

We can't just

stand here like the cheese
fell off our crackers.

Nancy's right.

Y'all need to take shelter
in the basement.

Is there a weather radio here?

I think there's one
around here somewhere.

The storm's getting worse.

Oh, here. Here it is.

That's a crank charge.

Oh, Randy can do it.

He uses one of those newfangled
hand grip strengtheners.

The man's got a calf
for a forearm.

Randy, you keep this charged.
You know how these storms are.

Who knows how long it'll last?

Stop sitting around
like a bump on a log!

Get to the storm cellar!

Let's Go! Let's Go!

Aren't you coming?

Miss Nancy, you can't
go out there!

Somebody's gotta make sure
everyone's safe.

People know what to do.

That doesn't mean
they do it!

You know how
people are around here,

ignoring things until

the wind lifts their car
up into the stratosphere?

But Miss Nancy!

Esther...
I've made up my mind.

Well then,

you better take this.

[vo] Not all heroes

Some of them even have

Ahhhh!

[siren wailing]

[thunder claps]

[thunder claps]

Look at how beautiful this is.

The candlesticks,
the centerpieces...

[plates shatter]

How beautiful this... was.

We can hide under here
if things get bad.

How bad?

I don't know, like
if the roof caves in.

Right, right.

Um... and if you had
to guess how likely that is?

Just better safe than sorry.

Right.

Better safe than sorry.

Okay. So, Frankie's with
Sabrina, Mae's with Jay.

Mom's with Nancy.
We gotta gather supplies.

[thunder crashes]

I wouldn't stand so close
to those windows.

When my dad moved us
to the Bay area,

there was a huge earthquake
right after we moved in.

Everything was still in boxes.

I remember watching the pendant
lights swaying,

and then all of a sudden, boom!

It's like
a car hit the building.

Then it was over in seconds.

I bet this will be like that.

I don't think that we should
get married.

[thunder claps]

[alarm wailing]

[engine sputters]

No!

[engine sputters]

[vo] Frank's day was

Where could a man who

in trying times like these?

These kind of storms
just usually

pass right over us.

We just have to get through it.

Yeah, just get through it.

Hey. Hey.

It's gonna be okay.

How can you be so sure?

I remember my first tornado.

It just happens a lot
around here.

Well, not that often,
but I was six

and mama grabbed Mae and me

by the scruff of
our neck, practically,

and she bolted to
the storm shelter.

The first one is
always the scariest.

I remember the last hurricane
that hit Puerto Rico.

-Oh, yeah, that was really bad.
-Yeah, it was horrible.

We didn't have electricity
for so long,

and I didn't handle
it well.

This is not that.

And I don't know, it feels
like that storm all over again.

We will figure our way
out of this jam...

Biscuit.

I can go through something
like that again.

[sighs]

[vo] Nancy was right

not taking things seriously.

Some people in town wouldn't

carrying their brains.

Big Tim!

Can't you hear the sirens?

I got footage from
the big one in '96 on here.

I want to have them
back to back.

Go home! Now!

[thunder claps]

[siren continuous to wail]

[wind howling]

Nancy?

Nancy, I'm up here!

I could use a little help
getting down the stairs!

[siren continues to wail]

Frank Junior!

[distant sobs]

Lil?

Nancy!

[whimpering sounds]

[sigh of relief]

It's you.

Oh.

It's you.

Have you seen Frank Junior?

Uh, no. I was
in here alone,

and that berserk alarm
went off,

and I just...
I crawled up in here

to save myself,
you know?

My own hero, Nancy.

Well, Mr. Hero,

that's a mighty strong
storm out there

so you better hope you've
done enough good in your life

so that someone up there
thinks you're worth protectin'.

What do you mean?

I mean, you might
want to think twice

about taking a stolen
family recipe, Wyatt.

If you gettin' my drift.

[thunder crashes]

Oh God, what was that?!

Trash can fell over.
Now, if you'll excuse me.

No, no, don't leave me,
don't leave me.

You're gonna be fine.

[crying]
No, I won't. I...

This is it.
I've been a bad man.

I'm not from the South.
I'm- I'm from Vermont.

And I've spent $100,000

watching Celine Dion during
her Vegas residency.

My hair is a toupee.

And The Cluckery,
it's bankrupt.

I'm too young to die,

according to my age
on LinkedIn.

What do you mean,
The Cluckery's bankrupt?

Uh...

I didn't say that.

I knew you were more crooked
than a hound dog's leg

and twice as dirty.

Where are you going?

To find my son.

What, are you just going
to stand there

like a dang ding-dong,

or are you going
to come and help me out?

You really think calling
me a ding-dong

is gonna make
me want to help you?

Oh, clean your ears out!

I didn't call you a ding-dong,

I called you
a dang ding-dong.

Okay, fine.

I don't need your help.

[vo] Frank Junior had done

but somewhere buried

is a little boy who

[door slams]
-Ah!

Hold your horses.

I'm coming.

Okay, now.

Just put this...

All right.

Now, one step at a time, now.

I know how to walk.

Just a little tired,
is all.

And cranky.

Says the whiniest man
in Merinac.

Takes one to know one.

And to smell one.

- Ok.
- All right, I-

I got it from here.

Suit yourself.

[thunder rumbles]

Go ahead.

Okay, well, uh...

maybe I can use
a little help

just for these
last few steps.

Just here-

If you say the magic word.

- Now!
- Nope.

P-L-E-A-S-E.

There.

Yeah.

Come on.
Put your back into it.

Too young to be this weak.

[siren continues to wail]

You don't want
to get married?

This is your out.

I think that you should get
as far away from me as possible.

Why would I do that?

The Mimi's curse.

And that's why you want to
throw away our life together?

I'm sorry.
That's ridiculous.

You're right.

This whole thing
is ridiculous.

It is ridiculous
that our wedding

is getting ruined
at this minute.

It is ridiculous that my dad
abandoned me... again.

And it is ridiculous
that you cannot see the signs

- Wait, wait a minute.
- right in front of you.

What do you mean, your dad
abandoned you... again?

He left.

What?

You were right when you said

you thought that the timing
was kind of funny.

That he would come back
after all of these years.

You were right.

He wasn't here for
the right reasons.

He was here for himself.

Mae, I'm sorry.

Why?

I think congratulations
are in order.

Babe, babe. Stop.

To Jay, who saw through
my deadbeat dad.

But here's the thing
about history.

It repeats itself,

and the Mimi's curse
is coming for us.

And there's nothing
we can do to stop it.

Can't you see?

Look, you have every
right to be devastated.

Sometimes life goes sideways.

It's not a curse.

You still don't think
that the curse is real?

- No.
- It's real.

I'm gonna prove it to you.

I'm gonna show you.

?

- Watch your head here.
- Yeah.

Oh, gosh.

[struggling grunts]

All right.
I'm fine now.

Just...

[sighs]

Last person I want
to be stuck down here with.

You're welcome.

[sighs]

[small chuckle]

P-tew!

Huh.

So where's mama?

[scoffs]

Oh, like you care.

I care.
That's why I asked.

She's out there.

What's she doing out there?

She was just worried
about everybody

when the alarm
didn't go off.

And so she went out and
took care of it herself.

Mama rang
the tornado siren?

I reckon she did.

Mama rang the siren?

Women can do hard things,
you know.

Some of us never get
a break from 'em.

[thunder claps]

Tell me how to make
your Hush Puppies.

Hey.

Tell me how to make
your Hush Puppies.

Not right now.

I'm curious.

And we got nothing but time.

I know what you're doing.

What am I doing?

Tell me anyway.

I don't need you to distract me.

Oh, I think you very much
need me to distract you.

I'm fine.

Okay. Yeah.

That's why you're shaking like
a firecracker at every noise.

- I am not.
-[laughing] Yes, you are.

That's okay.
It's completely understandable.

Do you know how lucky
you are to be stuck

with Merinac's finest
calmer-downer?

[laughs]

Is that an official title?

I'm the best there ever was.

Not to brag.

It's not gonna make me
less nervous.

Tell me about your
Hush Puppies.

Come on.

Because then if you die,
I'll know the recipe.

[laughs]

And I can continue on

Sergio's famous
Hush Puppy legacy.

Wow.

Well, I'd hope
I'd be remembered

for something greater
than that.

What's greater than
your Hush Puppies?

My smile.
My charisma.

How I look in
a white t-shirt.

Oh.

[laughs]

Exhibit A.

Mimi Moore.

The curse started with her.
My great great grandmother.

She fell in love with a rich
man who left her high and dry.

And that happened
to her twice.

Twice?

Yes. The second time while
she was pregnant with my...

great-grandmother,
Irma Moore.

Nobody called her Irma.
Everybody called her "Sugar".

Why? Because she was sweet?

No, because she
over-salted everything.

And what do you think
happened when she fell in love?

Look at all
the blank cards, Jay.

Peggy Moore, my grandmother.

And then there's my grandfather,
another unknown.

Time and again,
these women fell in love,

and a mythical sock full
of quarters came through

and knocked them
on their backside.

And then there was Mama.

He came back,
which was a miracle.

Or...

A blip

in what would be
his ultimate destiny.

Leaving another Mimi's girl

just as fast as the wind
could carry him.

And we're next.

[thunder claps]

It's the onion.

Huh?

It's the onion.

You don't say.

I am serious.

Every good Hush Puppy recipe
has onion.

But yours taste different.

I grate them with a microplane.

Oh, okay.
That's what it is.

That way the flavor
creeps up on you.

Who taught you that?

My mother.

Awe. What's her name?

Her name was Veronica.

Oh.

Yeah.

I bet she was wonderful.

Yes. She was, yeah.

That's how she grated her
plantains for alcapurrias.

Mm.

She was a good too?

Oh... the best.

Then she died
when I was eight.

I'm so sorry.

It's so hard to lose
a parent.

Yeah. She was...

gone.

I was just a kid.

Then I started cooking,
and, uh...

I took a job busing tables,

and this chef
took me under his wing,

taught me how to cook,
and suddenly...

it was like...

she was right there.

In here.

I bet she would be so proud
of you.

So then what was...

what was the first thing
you cooked

once you were a chef?

Oh, it was this little, um...

leek and, uh...

sunchoke mousse that
I would swirl on a plate,

and then the chef
would, uh,

lay the smoked sablefish
on top of it.

- It was good.
- Yeah.

And not to brag,

but we were the restaurant
for wedding proposals.

You know the right food

could make you fall in love.

[glass shatters]
[screams]

[siren continues to wail]

Oh, no.

[struggling]

Gen!

I ran over something,
it slashed my tire right open!

Get in!

Hold on!

There's no time to waste!

Oh. Oh my.

Your baby!

Oh quick, little one!

Let's go!

[baby crying]

Hurry up!

It's okay.

There, there, little one.
You'll be okay.

Not sure what
I would have done

if you hadn't shown up.

I'm glad we don't have
to find out.

It takes a special
kind of person

to be out here looking
to help.

Oh. So sweet.

They're not that little
for very long.

[vo] They might lose all

get their driver's license,

But they never stop

I've got another stop.

Will you just sit down?

You're disturbing my peace.

You're not the boss of me.

I think I deserve a thank you.

You deserve something,
alright.

If it weren't for me,

you'd still be up at
the top of them stairs.

Oh, congratulations,
Frank Junior.

Instead of being
a selfish toddler,

you did the right thing
for once in your life.

I've done plenty
of good in my life.

Not that I've been
witness to.

[scoffs]

You know what?

You've never liked me.

[chuckles] Well, somebody
call MENSA.

Tell me something.

What have you ever done to
ingratiate yourself with me?

I mean, did you ever once
come by Mimi's

when you and Amanda
were dating, hmm?

Well... no.

That's right.

Because you wouldn't allow it.

[vo] The hot air was

but he was about to feel

coming his way.

Let me tell you something.

Now, I may be set in my ways,
but I'm not so low

that I would hold the sins
of a father against his child.

[scoffs]

Something happened
right around the time

you got your braces out
and suddenly you were a man.

That's when you started
talking like your daddy

and walking like your daddy.

It was right around prom when
you and Amanda got engaged.

You two had made up
your minds,

and I couldn't have stopped you
if I tried, and I did.

Amanda must have been itching

to get away from you
as fast as she could.

Well, I wasn't perfect.

That's for sure,
far from it.

But it broke my heart
when Amanda told me

she was going to marry you.

God. She was...

she was just
so bright and creative.

She had so many choices.

You know, I never
had any choices

when I was in high school.

And the only thing
holding her back was you.

She had a better
life because of me.

In spite of you!

She was willing to settle
for less

so that's all
you ever gave her.

[thunder claps]

[knocking]
Frank Junior?!

[thunder claps]

Frank Junior?!

Hello?

[sobbing] Baby.

Where are you?

[thunder claps]

[baby crying]

Shh!

[blows raspberry]

[siren continues to wail]

He's not there.

He's been through
a storm like this before.

He knows what to do.

But I understand
you just want to be sure.

Just because they get older
doesn't make you worry any less.

What do you mean,
we're next?

We're doomed, Jay.

It's just a matter of time
until we're done, so

why would we even get
started in the first place?

Sit down.

Sit down. Come on.

You know what I see?

I don't see a curse.

I see a bunch of strong,
opinionated women

who were mistreated,
cast aside, and disrespected.

Jay...

Time and time again
by these unknowns.

And you know what I think?

They didn't deserve
to be known.

Look at these cowards.
Things got hard.

Things didn't go the way
they thought they would.

And they left.

That's not a curse, Mae.

That's a tragedy.

These men are the problem.

Do you think
I'm one of these men?

No, I don't.

Then don't treat me
like I am.

- You don't understand.
- I'm not like these men.

- No, I know.
- I'm not like your

great-great-grandfather,
or your grandfather,

- or your father.
- I know you're not.

Then what are we even
talking about here?

I am.

I'm just like him.

He's a liar.
I'm a liar.

He runs as soon as things
get hard.

I left Merinac the second
I graduated high school.

Can't you see?

I am just like him.

And I know that the second
that things get tough between us...

You think you might run.

[wind howling]

[thunder claps]

You ever miss working
at your old restaurant?

Sometimes.

But actually, not really.
I don't want to look back.

Yeah.

I know that feeling.

The future,
that's where I want to be.

Me too.

The possibilities,
they're exciting.

Anything could happen.

Anything could happen.

Why do you look so scared?

I wonder-

If I get what I want,

is it really what I wanted?

You lost me.

I thought I wanted
the life I had,

but...

I don't think I've really
ever gotten what I wanted.

And I don't even know
what I want.

[dishes shatter]

[screams]

Actually, that's not true.

I got something I really
wanted, and I... I...

And you...?

And I pushed it away.

What did you push away?

[thunder claps]

Oh, no.

Frank Junior!

[siren continuous to wail]

You don't know anything
about me and Amanda.

I gave Amanda everything I had.

- [laughs]
- I did.

You never gave her anything

that you weren't
getting rid of, anyway.

What do you know about family?

Up until a year ago,

your daughters weren't
even talking to you.

Just look around here.

I... I mean it.
Just look all around here.

What?

What do you see?

Toys for days.

Games and...

comfortable chairs
to sit in, magazines.

It seems like
a real nice place

for a family
to ride out a storm.

Yeah.

That's what this room is for.

Oh.

Did you put these things
down here?

No.

Did your daddy?

No.

Oh.

I wonder who did.

[sighs]

I wish I had a tenth

of the kindness and patience
your mama has.

She brought me back
from the brink, you know.

And while I don't agree

that celery should
be considered a food,

it got me out of that
wheelchair.

See, your mama's only flaw

is that she always
puts herself second.

Now you start acting
like your mama,

and then you can
start talking to me

about how you put
your family first.

Nothing in this basement
is for her.

Let me ask you something,
Frank Junior.

Have you ever,
in your entire life

considered what
your mama wants?

[cries]

[siren continuous to wail]

Esther?

[Esther]

Did emergency vehicles
pick up Frank Junior?

His truck is overturned
by the railroad crossing.

Hold on.

Oh, uh, Coach Jenkins

Said he saw him running

Was he okay?

Sounds like it.

His legs were

Oh, thank goodness.

Coach Jenkins kept saying

that speed when

Okay, okay.
Then he's alive.

Oh Nancy, you better put

Just heard from Newberry.

[radio disconnects]

Esther! Esther!

We lost signal.

I gotta get y'all home.

Here's how I see it.

I don't think you're
like Clayton at all.

Okay, a little,

but I see a lot more
Gus in you.

The way you laugh when
you've gotten a good rising.

The way you love
to feed people.

You know you and your mom
lean on the countertop the same way?

- No.
- Uh, yeah.

I'm excited about all the ways
you're exactly like your mother.

- What if you're wrong?
- I know I'm not.

But what if you are?

Then I'd rather have
whatever time I get with you

than a lifetime
with anybody else.

Mae Moore.

I have loved you since
the moment I met you.

You've taught me to stand up
for myself

in ways I'd never dreamed of.

The way you can walk by
a tree in spring

on the filthiest street
in New York City

and see nothing but
the cherry blossoms.

I want to spend the rest
of my life with you,

watching you try all
the ice cream flavors,

when we both know you're gonna
get mint chocolate chip.

[laughs]

Mae Moore...

marry me.

[tender music]

[teary] Yeah.

Yes.

I like this one the best.

Me too.

[both laugh]

[crumbling sounds]

I don't think we should
be here anymore.

We can't go out in this.

Mama's storm shelter
is nearby.

If we run, we can make it.

We're not safe here.

- So you want to run?
- Yeah.

I'm gonna run with you.

[wind howling]

[whimpering]

[sobbing]

Come on now.

You're going to
dehydrate yourself.

Stop.

Stop Frank Junior,
boys don't cry.

Mimi's girls don't cry, either.

Doesn't do anybody any good,
though, does it?

Being tough like that.

I've pushed a lot of people
away in my life.

Guess I'm...

pretty easy to leave.

[sighs]

You know, my daughters sure did
run away as fast as they could.

I had a lot of demons to face
when that Kitchen Clash aired.

I watched myself,

the way I spoke to
my daughters, just...

just really made my stomach
drop into my boots.

[sighs]

It is downright embarrassing,

but I can't say what they
showed wasn't true.

I didn't like the way
I came off, either.

You might be your daddy's son,
but you're your mama's, too.

You can do better.

We both can.

Yeah, I think we're more alike
than you think.

How is that?

Well, I thought I could do it
all alone, too.

But we need people.

God, it just took me so long
to figure that out.

It's just real lonely out there
on your own.

It sure is.

If I was a betting woman,

[clears throat]

I would put money
on your mama

being the kind of person
who believes in second chances.

Yeah?

[vo] It's funny how sometimes

we never knew was there

- Stay close!
- Yeah, yeah! Go!

Are you okay?

I'm good. I'm good.

Hurry! Hurry!

Get inside!

[struggling grunts]

? You were swinging ?

? For the fences ?

? You were running

? Now you're stuck back

? Still can't decide ?

?
if you've run

? 'Cause it feels like

? At the arcade ?

? Just to trade them

? That you don't want ?

? And you don't need ?

? But all that

? Never feels like enough ?

? Sometimes it makes

[vo] How can we know how

if we're not tested

? Sometimes it makes

? I used to think

? Now you're sure

? Spend your whole

? You still wind up

Gus! Gus!

[Gus]
We're down here!

Gus! Oh, thank goodness.

How did you get down here?

[gasps]

He's just waking up.

He went down
for a little bit.

Honey, oh.

Oh, honey,
look at you.

- You're all there.
- Mama?

Oh!

Oh. Thank goodness.

Honey, look at you.

You're all in one piece.

But your truck?

Oh, I ran out of gas.

I forgot my mama
always told me

to fill up at
a quarter of a tank.

That sounds like some
mighty fine advice to me.

I got a pretty smart mama.

The best mama.

Who... deserves a...

whopper of an apology
from her only son.

Probably a few of them.

[emotional music]

[siren continues to wail]

[electricity buzzes]

[exhales]

We made it through.

We did.

Mama!

Frankie! Oh, Frankie honey, oh.

Oh.

Ugh.

[alarm continues to wail]

[Esther]

Copy.

National Weather

All clear.

Oh, that's a relief.

Oh. What now, boss?

Well, I guess you better
turn off that siren now.

Yes, ma'am.

[door creaks]

[vo] This storm

the Mimi's girls had been

The lies they told themselves,

But this storm,

it got a little

Oh no!

Oh, no!
