What's going on Lisa?

00:00:08,576 --> 00:00:11,679
Devin! Devin, get in here, baby.
5
00:00:11,712 --> 00:00:13,481
Mom, I
swear it wasn't me.
6
00:00:13,514 --> 00:00:14,782
Uh oh, what'd the
boy do now?
7
00:00:14,815 --> 00:00:16,584
Keep your belt on Tony.
8
00:00:16,617 --> 00:00:18,386
Yeah Dad, I'm almost
grown.
9
00:00:18,419 --> 00:00:21,855
Almost grown. That means I
might only have one good
ass whoopin' left.
10
00:00:21,889 --> 00:00:24,625
Devin got a letter from
Howard!
11
00:00:24,658 --> 00:00:25,759
Howard who?
12
00:00:25,793 --> 00:00:27,861
I got a letter from
Dwight Howard?
13
00:00:27,895 --> 00:00:28,996
What that crybaby want?
14
00:00:29,029 --> 00:00:30,664
Howard University!
15
00:00:30,698 --> 00:00:34,268
Ah, yeah. I remember my
first college rejection
letter.
16
00:00:34,302 --> 00:00:36,737
How do you know it's
gonna be a rejection letter?
17
00:00:36,770 --> 00:00:38,872
Open it then smart-ass.
18
00:00:43,777 --> 00:00:44,578
Dear Devin...
19
00:00:44,612 --> 00:00:47,248
That's how it starts.
20
00:00:47,281 --> 00:00:49,283
Go ahead baby, go ahead, go
ahead.
21
00:00:49,317 --> 00:00:51,519
Congratulations! We are pleased
to inform you that
22
00:00:51,552 --> 00:00:53,221
you have admission to
Howard University!
23
00:00:53,254 --> 00:00:55,223
Yeah, sorry brother.
You know sometimes...
24
00:00:55,256 --> 00:00:56,124
Wait a minute...
25
00:00:56,157 --> 00:00:58,025
Congratula... give
me that!
26
00:00:58,058 --> 00:01:01,395
Oh my goodness! My baby is
going to college!
27
00:01:01,429 --> 00:01:04,265
Oh man! I always knew
you'd get in.
28
00:01:04,298 --> 00:01:05,399
But Dad you just said-
29
00:01:05,433 --> 00:01:07,000
Hey, quiet boy, you're
brilliant, you're a Stallworth!
30
00:01:07,034 --> 00:01:09,637
I would not expect
anything less!
31
00:01:10,171 --> 00:01:13,741
Is it me... or did you not
go to college?
32
00:01:15,143 --> 00:01:18,646
I went to the school of
hard-knocks and I busted my
hump so that you can get in.
33
00:01:18,679 --> 00:01:20,648
Aren't you excited honey?
34
00:01:20,681 --> 00:01:23,151
I mean, yeah, it's aight.
35
00:01:23,184 --> 00:01:24,718
It's "aight"?
36
00:01:24,752 --> 00:01:27,221
College is, is kind of a big
deal!
37
00:01:27,255 --> 00:01:29,823
I know, mom, but can we wait to
hear from all the other
38
00:01:29,857 --> 00:01:33,060
colleges I applied
to before I decide?
39
00:01:33,161 --> 00:01:36,597
Whaaat, look at him.
Okay, that's my son. Haha!
40
00:01:36,630 --> 00:01:40,634
Weighing his options.
Playing the field.
[Laughing]
41
00:01:40,668 --> 00:01:43,771
Who are we kidding Lisa, I've
seen his GPA. He ain't getting
into no more schools.
42
00:01:43,804 --> 00:01:45,773
We need to accept this
before they send out
a retraction letter.
43
00:01:45,806 --> 00:01:47,975

wife said to me

won't let me be

[Door bell]

00:02:05,993 --> 00:02:10,198
Well if you did your own
laundry, you would know where
your stuff is Tony.

[ Screams ]
Shauna Wilbourne!
52
00:02:14,067 --> 00:02:15,303
Hey Lisa...
53
00:02:15,336 --> 00:02:18,206
Look at you! You look just like
you did before.
54
00:02:18,206 --> 00:02:19,940
Come on in girl. You look
beautiful.
55
00:02:19,973 --> 00:02:23,311
Aww, oh, Lisa this is nice.
56
00:02:23,344 --> 00:02:25,112
Thank you so much for
letting me crash here.
57
00:02:25,213 --> 00:02:28,349
Oh girl, please. You know we go
back like rocking chairs.
58
00:02:28,382 --> 00:02:29,350
[Laughing]
59
00:02:29,383 --> 00:02:31,051
I can't wait to see how
big your kids got.
60
00:02:31,084 --> 00:02:33,854
Oh, you know what, you'll
see Devin. He's
preparing for college.
61
00:02:33,887 --> 00:02:36,224
- Wow!
- But Ebony's away on
some school retreat-
62
00:02:36,224 --> 00:02:37,691
Come on Lisa stop playing! I
need some clean drawers!
63
00:02:37,725 --> 00:02:38,992
Tony! We have company.
64
00:02:39,026 --> 00:02:41,962
Oh hey! You must be
Shauna. I've heard so much
about you.
65
00:02:41,995 --> 00:02:43,931
And this must be Dennis.
66
00:02:43,964 --> 00:02:45,499
Who the hell is Dennis, Lisa?
67
00:02:45,533 --> 00:02:49,337
I'm joking. I heard so
much about you, too, Tony.
68
00:02:49,370 --> 00:02:50,804
Ah, well, can you help her
with her bags?
69
00:02:50,838 --> 00:02:54,342
That's quite alright.
They train us to handle
our own bags.
70
00:02:54,375 --> 00:02:56,744
Oh, that's right.
You're in the Army.
71
00:02:56,777 --> 00:02:58,512
Uh... it's the
Marines, actually.
72
00:02:58,546 --> 00:02:59,347
Okay.
What's the difference?
73
00:02:59,380 --> 00:03:01,915
The Marines are who you call
on when it's something the
Army can't handle.
74
00:03:01,949 --> 00:03:04,117
Oh, well can you handle taking a
seat?
75
00:03:04,151 --> 00:03:05,519
Gettin' relaxed?
76
00:03:05,553 --> 00:03:08,256
Yeah, take a load off. Any
friend of Lisa's is a
friend of mine.
77
00:03:08,256 --> 00:03:10,491
Stay as long as you like.
But if you're on some
secret mission
78
00:03:10,524 --> 00:03:13,060
or something, then you need to
let us in on it, you hear?
79
00:03:13,093 --> 00:03:16,397
Well can you go on a little
secret mission and find those
drawers you was looking for?
80
00:03:16,430 --> 00:03:17,931
Copy that!
81
00:03:18,766 --> 00:03:21,702
Lisa, the truth is I am
on a secret mission.
82
00:03:21,735 --> 00:03:23,404
(Whispering) What? Really?
83
00:03:23,437 --> 00:03:25,273
On a secret mission to crack
this bottle
84
00:03:25,273 --> 00:03:27,708
of wine open and kick it with my
girl!
85
00:03:27,741 --> 00:03:29,877
You crazy!
86
00:03:29,910 --> 00:03:31,979
- Awe I missed you!
Girl, it's not?
- It's not that good.
87
00:03:32,012 --> 00:03:33,681
- Well, then why'd you bring it?
- It's cheap.

[Instrumental Music]
89
00:03:40,288 --> 00:03:42,122
Hey Devin.
90
00:03:42,155 --> 00:03:45,125
I know, I know, I'm not
supposed to be in the
man cave. I'll leave.
91
00:03:45,158 --> 00:03:46,994
No, no, no. Keep playing
your video game.
92
00:03:47,027 --> 00:03:52,032
See this is the man cave.
And now that you're a
man, this is our space.
93
00:03:52,065 --> 00:03:54,902
Our space?
Dad, what's going on?
94
00:03:54,935 --> 00:03:58,572
Nothing. I just want to let
you know that I'm very proud
95
00:03:58,606 --> 00:04:00,774
that you got four
acceptance letters already.
96
00:04:00,808 --> 00:04:03,711
And I'm just curious
as to which way
you were leaning.
97
00:04:03,744 --> 00:04:05,479
I don't know, I haven't thought
much about it.
98
00:04:05,513 --> 00:04:06,146
Why?
99
00:04:06,179 --> 00:04:09,383
No reason. No, no reason at all.
You know, I'm just curious. It's
your future.
100
00:04:09,417 --> 00:04:11,885
You know, not like I'm going so
it don't really matter to me.
101
00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:13,053
What game is this?
102
00:04:13,086 --> 00:04:14,855
- This one-
- Whatchu think about
Howard?
103
00:04:14,888 --> 00:04:16,957
To keep it all the way 100
with you?
104
00:04:16,990 --> 00:04:19,693
I don't think he should
have left Orlando.
105
00:04:19,727 --> 00:04:22,596
He wasn't worthy of the
purple and gold.
106
00:04:22,630 --> 00:04:25,132
I'm talking about Howard
University, son.
107
00:04:25,165 --> 00:04:26,534
Oh, what about it?
108
00:04:26,567 --> 00:04:28,669
I think that might be the
right choice for you.
109
00:04:28,702 --> 00:04:30,604
You know, I'm sure these
other schools are fine,
110
00:04:30,638 --> 00:04:31,972
but Howard has
some good programs.
111
00:04:32,005 --> 00:04:33,641
So does San Diego.
112
00:04:33,674 --> 00:04:35,476
Yeah but Howard
has more-
113
00:04:35,509 --> 00:04:40,348
Black people? You're so obvious,
dad. I know you want me to go to
an HBCU.
114
00:04:40,348 --> 00:04:42,683
What? Who, me? What's
wrong with an HBCU?
115
00:04:42,716 --> 00:04:44,952
And what's wrong with a
non-HBCU?
116
00:04:44,985 --> 00:04:49,122
Nothing. I just want you
to be exposed to
your own culture.
117
00:04:49,156 --> 00:04:55,496
Dad, I live in a household
with black parents, a
black sister,
118
00:04:55,529 --> 00:04:58,766
and a whole bunch of
black folks that show up
here unannounced.
119
00:04:58,799 --> 00:05:01,969
I think I'm exposed
to my culture.
120
00:05:02,002 --> 00:05:03,136
Yeah that's a good point.
It's a good point.
121
00:05:03,170 --> 00:05:05,038
Look, I'm not trying to
sway your decision...
122
00:05:05,072 --> 00:05:07,808
but look when you go to
orientation and you see
all them sisters
123
00:05:07,841 --> 00:05:11,545
walking across campus
looking like Clydesdales,
you gonna thank me.
124
00:05:11,579 --> 00:05:16,183
Dad, don't worry. I'm not
leaning towards a black
college or a white college.
125
00:05:16,216 --> 00:05:18,852
What you thinking
about, the University of
Mexico?
126
00:05:18,886 --> 00:05:22,656
Actually I'm not
thinking about going to
college at all.
127
00:05:23,857 --> 00:05:26,293
I'm sorry, could you run
that by me again?
128
00:05:26,394 --> 00:05:27,227
Dad, I said I'm-
129
00:05:27,260 --> 00:05:28,629
Wait, wait one second.
(CALLS OUT) LISA!
130
00:05:28,662 --> 00:05:30,998
Momma gonna want
to hear this.
(CALLS OUT) LISA!
131
00:05:31,031 --> 00:05:33,867
What? What is it Tony?
We're down there looking
at our old yearbook.
132
00:05:33,901 --> 00:05:35,503
Uh yeah, this is a little bit
more important.
133
00:05:35,536 --> 00:05:37,605
Why don't you come on
down here for a second.
134
00:05:37,638 --> 00:05:40,574
Devin, ah, could you
repeat what you just said?
135
00:05:40,608 --> 00:05:43,176
What is it? What?
What is it, Devin?
136
00:05:43,210 --> 00:05:48,248
Mom, Dad, I do realize
college is very important.
137
00:05:48,281 --> 00:05:50,818
But I also realize that
it's not for everybody.
138
00:05:50,851 --> 00:05:53,286
Not for everybody who
didn't get accepted.
139
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,957
What are you talking about
Devin? What are you trying
to say?
140
00:05:56,990 --> 00:05:59,527
Could you put that video
game down while we're
talking please?
141
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,130
Actually the video game is
a big part of it.
142
00:06:03,163 --> 00:06:04,297
I don't think I want to go
to college and
143
00:06:04,331 --> 00:06:06,934
I want to become a
professional video game
player.
144
00:06:06,967 --> 00:06:08,168
[Both Yell]
What?
145
00:06:08,201 --> 00:06:10,203
Oh hell no! You are not
going to be sitting around
146
00:06:10,237 --> 00:06:11,338
playing video games
all your damn life.
147
00:06:11,439 --> 00:06:13,641
Your black ass will be
getting a job.
148
00:06:13,674 --> 00:06:16,777
Dad! Video games can be
a real job!
149
00:06:16,810 --> 00:06:20,881
Don't you realize how much
money people are making
playing E-Sports?
150
00:06:20,914 --> 00:06:24,017
The video game industry
is a billion dollar
industry!
151
00:06:24,051 --> 00:06:27,755
Well until you bring in a
billion dollar check, your black
ass will be going to college.
152
00:06:27,788 --> 00:06:30,458
What happened to
everything we've always
talked about Devin?
153
00:06:30,458 --> 00:06:33,293
You being a doctor or a
lawyer?
154
00:06:33,326 --> 00:06:35,896
Those are all things you
wanted for me.
155
00:06:35,929 --> 00:06:37,531
Boy has a point there,
Lisa.
156
00:06:37,565 --> 00:06:40,300
As irresponsible as he is, I
wouldn't want him operating
on me.
157
00:06:40,333 --> 00:06:42,903
Ok. Well, isn't that the point
of college? To try different
158
00:06:42,936 --> 00:06:44,805
things to figure out what you
wanna do?
159
00:06:44,838 --> 00:06:49,777
But if I know I don't want
to go, why take up the space
of somebody who does?
160
00:06:50,478 --> 00:06:52,713
Oh, now you want to be
morally responsible?
161
00:06:52,746 --> 00:06:55,015
Where's that attitude when
it's time to take out the
trash and do the dishes?
162
00:06:55,048 --> 00:06:57,551
Okay, alright you know
what?
163
00:06:57,585 --> 00:07:00,588
I know it's a really
stressful time honey, why
don't you just think
164
00:07:00,621 --> 00:07:03,624
about everything you're
saying right now and
then we can just
165
00:07:03,657 --> 00:07:05,292
we can talk about
it later, okay?
166
00:07:05,325 --> 00:07:06,860
Alright.
167
00:07:06,894 --> 00:07:10,163
Yeah, we'll talk later.
It's a good point.
Mm-hmm.
168
00:07:10,197 --> 00:07:12,500
Sure thing you relax.
But um...
169
00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:14,334
No more video games until
that time.
170
00:07:14,367 --> 00:07:15,603
[Controller Cord Rips
And Smacks The Floor]
171
00:07:15,636 --> 00:07:19,306
So you just gonna
break the thing?
172
00:07:19,339 --> 00:07:21,775
[Instrumental Music]
173
00:07:24,311 --> 00:07:34,321
[Instrumental Music]
174
00:07:34,354 --> 00:07:37,390
Tony, will you come to
bed already?
175
00:07:37,424 --> 00:07:38,859
Oh, I can't sleep Lisa.
176
00:07:38,892 --> 00:07:40,894
That boy gets accepted
to four universities,
177
00:07:40,928 --> 00:07:43,396
which is an amazing feat
as it is, and he doesn't
even want to go.
178
00:07:43,430 --> 00:07:46,567
Well you didin't go and
you turned out fine.
179
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,369
Yeah, yeah, yeah but I had
hustle. The boy lacks
street smarts, Lisa.
180
00:07:49,402 --> 00:07:52,105
Well, what do you want him
to be, the leader of a
gang?
181
00:07:52,139 --> 00:07:53,440
Well at least being a
leader of a gang,
he'd have
182
00:07:53,541 --> 00:07:55,876
organizational skills,
hustle, and commitment.
183
00:07:55,909 --> 00:08:00,347
Well if that's all you want
from him, we may as well
ship him off to the military.
184
00:08:00,380 --> 00:08:03,216
You know what, that's not
a bad idea.
185
00:08:03,250 --> 00:08:04,985
Are you crazy? You
lost your mind?
186
00:08:05,018 --> 00:08:07,320
I'm not sending my
son to the military.
187
00:08:07,354 --> 00:08:10,558
Of course not. But how
'bout we give him a
glimpse of that life?
188
00:08:10,558 --> 00:08:12,359
What are you talking
about Tony?
189
00:08:12,392 --> 00:08:14,161
We'll have him sit down
with Shauna.
190
00:08:14,194 --> 00:08:16,329
She'll start sharing all
her little awful war stories,
191
00:08:16,363 --> 00:08:18,265
scare that boy straight
to Howard.
192
00:08:18,298 --> 00:08:20,634
Or Oregon.
Or San Diego.
193
00:08:20,668 --> 00:08:21,602
Or Howard.
194
00:08:21,635 --> 00:08:23,236
Goodnight.

[Instrumental Music]
197
00:08:29,442 --> 00:08:30,578
Hey!
198
00:08:30,611 --> 00:08:32,680
Look at you, Devin.
All grown up.
199
00:08:32,713 --> 00:08:34,848
Ah-ow!
200
00:08:35,883 --> 00:08:38,686
I can't believe Lisa has
a high school senior on
her hands.
201
00:08:38,719 --> 00:08:41,088
Yeah, I'm just glad
school's over soon.
202
00:08:41,121 --> 00:08:43,290
What do you mean, over? It's
just getting started.
203
00:08:43,323 --> 00:08:45,926
You're about to
be a big college man.
204
00:08:46,359 --> 00:08:50,063
I see what this is.
Mom and dad put you up
to talking to me.
205
00:08:50,097 --> 00:08:55,302
Yeah. Sort of. But listen,
when I was your age, I
felt exactly like you do.
206
00:08:55,335 --> 00:08:59,172
I know, I know. And
then you went to
college with my mom
207
00:08:59,206 --> 00:09:02,676
and it was the best
decision of your life,
blah blah blah.
208
00:09:02,710 --> 00:09:06,880
No, I went to high school with
your mom. I didn't go to college
after high school.
209
00:09:06,914 --> 00:09:07,748
You didn't?
210
00:09:07,781 --> 00:09:09,216
No, I didn't think it
was for me.
211
00:09:09,249 --> 00:09:12,119
I went to school later
in my 20's and
I loved it then.
212
00:09:12,152 --> 00:09:14,487
What made you
decide to go then?
213
00:09:14,521 --> 00:09:17,524
Well, after you serve for
a while, they pay for
your college.
214
00:09:17,625 --> 00:09:19,426
And what I loved the
most about it--
215
00:09:19,459 --> 00:09:20,761
Wait.
216
00:09:21,461 --> 00:09:24,031
What do you mean,
they, they pay for
your college?
217
00:09:24,064 --> 00:09:27,134
Well when you enlist in
the military, free education
is part of the deal.
218
00:09:27,167 --> 00:09:28,769
There's some other
cool perks, too.
219
00:09:28,802 --> 00:09:30,437
Like what?
220
00:09:30,470 --> 00:09:34,207
I mean you travel the world,
you meet a lot of people, and
you learn new languages-
221
00:09:34,241 --> 00:09:35,843
Did you ever get
to fire a weapon?
222
00:09:35,876 --> 00:09:38,646
Every one they had. In
training, you have to.
223
00:09:38,646 --> 00:09:42,115
Dang, the military sounds
hella cool.
224
00:09:42,149 --> 00:09:44,017
Well, there's also the
other side of it. You
have to-
225
00:09:44,051 --> 00:09:47,254
Wait... did you ever get
to play video games?
226
00:09:47,287 --> 00:09:50,157
I mean yeah, there's a
lot of downtime.
227
00:09:51,792 --> 00:09:54,227
I hear you,
Miss Shauna.
228
00:09:54,261 --> 00:09:55,663
I think I'm
gonna join the military.
229
00:09:55,696 --> 00:09:57,798
Oh! Devin! No, that's
not what I meant!
230
00:09:57,831 --> 00:09:59,667
I was just trying to tell
you.. . Oh boy.
231
00:10:00,100 --> 00:10:04,004
[Instrumental Music]
232
00:10:04,037 --> 00:10:06,840
[Lisa] You told my son
to join the Army?!
233
00:10:06,874 --> 00:10:10,143
Actually, it's the Marines,
but I didn't tell him to join.
234
00:10:10,177 --> 00:10:12,445
Well, what did you tell
him, hmm? Inquiring
minds wanna know.
235
00:10:12,479 --> 00:10:14,682
I just told him about my
personal experience and
236
00:10:14,715 --> 00:10:16,784
the next thing I know, the
boy's ready to go enlist.
237
00:10:17,017 --> 00:10:18,819
Well you need to
go undo whatever
it is you did
238
00:10:18,852 --> 00:10:20,988
because there's no
way my son is
going off to war.
239
00:10:21,021 --> 00:10:23,657
There's a lot of military
careers besides the
front line, Lisa.
240
00:10:23,691 --> 00:10:25,492
Oh, oh look Lisa,
she's doing it again.
241
00:10:25,525 --> 00:10:26,827
What, you trying to get
us to join now?
242
00:10:26,860 --> 00:10:30,964
Yeah, I guess you were
on a secret mission.
To recruit my son.
243
00:10:30,998 --> 00:10:34,167
Well, it's not gonna
work, Shauna. My son is
going to an HBCU.
244
00:10:34,201 --> 00:10:36,103
Or San Diego or Oregon.
245
00:10:36,136 --> 00:10:37,671
Whatever, Lisa.
246
00:10:37,705 --> 00:10:39,773
You know, I had no interest in
recruiting your son,
247
00:10:39,807 --> 00:10:41,608
but at this point, I'm starting
to get offended.
248
00:10:41,641 --> 00:10:44,644
What's wrong with being
in the military? I've
made a great career out of it.
249
00:10:44,678 --> 00:10:48,281
Okay. We did not mean to
offend you. I'm sure the
military is a great choice
250
00:10:48,315 --> 00:10:51,051
for some people, it's just not a
good choice for Devin.
251
00:10:51,084 --> 00:10:52,419
How do you know?
252
00:10:52,452 --> 00:10:55,188
Well, he's expressed great
interest in being a video
gamer.
253
00:10:55,222 --> 00:10:56,857
That's also not the right choice
for Devin.
254
00:10:56,890 --> 00:11:01,494
But how do you
know? I think you two are a
little too involved in this.
255
00:11:01,528 --> 00:11:02,996
Too involved?
He's our son!
256
00:11:03,030 --> 00:11:05,899
Okay, okay, let me put it
to you another way. Do
you remember being 17?
257
00:11:05,933 --> 00:11:08,135
Hell yeah, I remember that.
258
00:11:08,168 --> 00:11:12,039
All I could
think about was hot cars,
and fine-ass women
259
00:11:12,072 --> 00:11:15,308
Woman... one fine-ass
woman.
260
00:11:15,342 --> 00:11:18,578
And during that time, did
you want your parents making
all your decisions for you?
261
00:11:18,611 --> 00:11:22,482
Well no, I really didn't. I
wanted to be a Laker's
girl but
262
00:11:22,515 --> 00:11:24,918
my dad wasn't having it.
Just wasn't having it.
263
00:11:24,952 --> 00:11:28,221
That's cause your daddy
remembers them Wilt
Chamberlain Laker's.
264
00:11:28,255 --> 00:11:31,992
Listen, I don't have a horse in
this race. I'm just saying, as
an outsider looking in,
265
00:11:32,025 --> 00:11:35,763
you've made yourself heard.
Now maybe you should just let
him make his own decision.
266
00:11:35,763 --> 00:11:38,198
Yeah, and maybe he'll
decide to go to an HBCU.
267
00:11:38,231 --> 00:11:40,768
Or San Diego. Or Oregon.
268
00:11:41,534 --> 00:11:44,772
Alright look, I just
always saw him going to an
HBCU.
269
00:11:44,805 --> 00:11:48,909
Following in the footsteps
of Martin Luther King, Spike
Lee, and Puff Daddy.
270
00:11:48,942 --> 00:11:53,914
Yeah, and I always saw him
as a brain surgeon or a hot shot
attorney like Johnny Cochran.
271
00:11:53,947 --> 00:11:57,785
Well, maybe he'll be one
of those things. But it's
gotta be his choice.
272
00:11:59,086 --> 00:12:01,221
Maybe he'll choose an
HBCU.
273
00:12:01,254 --> 00:12:04,624
Or San Diego. Or Oregon.
274
00:12:04,657 --> 00:12:06,159

275
00:12:08,796 --> 00:12:12,933
[Instrumental Music]
276
00:12:14,802 --> 00:12:15,903
Hey Devin.
277
00:12:15,936 --> 00:12:17,437
Oh hey, dad. What's
going on?
278
00:12:17,470 --> 00:12:20,908
Oh not much, just wanted
to have a quick
conversation with you.
279
00:12:20,941 --> 00:12:25,879
I've been doing some
thinking and... maybe
you're right.
280
00:12:25,913 --> 00:12:27,380
You don't want to be a
lawyer or a doctor.
281
00:12:27,414 --> 00:12:30,951
Exactly. It sounds like a
whole bunch of boring work.
282
00:12:30,984 --> 00:12:34,822
Yeah, yeah, but besides all
that money you make?
Who needs that?
283
00:12:34,822 --> 00:12:36,857
Uh, dad, money's
not everything.
284
00:12:36,890 --> 00:12:40,227
Really? If it isn't everything,
then why you always hit me
up for some?
285
00:12:40,260 --> 00:12:42,662
Ah, I only hit you up to
spend your money.
286
00:12:42,695 --> 00:12:46,033
I hit you up so you can
drive me to the mall so I
can spend your money,
287
00:12:46,066 --> 00:12:49,502
and I hit you up for your
bank account numbers so I
can get more money.
288
00:12:49,536 --> 00:12:52,239
Okay, alright, alright, we're
getting off the point here.
289
00:12:52,272 --> 00:12:53,974
What's the point?
290
00:12:54,007 --> 00:12:57,577
The point is, there are
other careers other than
just a doctor and a lawyer.
291
00:12:57,610 --> 00:13:00,914
Yeah, like a video game
player or the military.
292
00:13:00,948 --> 00:13:06,019
Yeah, yeah, thats true
but, um, how about a
mechanic? Huh?
293
00:13:06,053 --> 00:13:10,023
Eh? Spend all day working
on cars? You like cars
right?
294
00:13:10,057 --> 00:13:14,094
I think I would like a car
more if you would
buy me one.
295
00:13:14,127 --> 00:13:16,429
Okay, that's not going
to happen.
296
00:13:16,463 --> 00:13:21,168
How about a teacher. Now
that is a very noble
career son!
297
00:13:21,201 --> 00:13:22,970
The children are
our future!
298
00:13:23,003 --> 00:13:27,875
Uh, Dad you really want
me to teach some
kids some stuff?
299
00:13:27,875 --> 00:13:30,043
That's a good point.
300
00:13:30,077 --> 00:13:33,480
Oh! How about this...
professional athlete? Ah?
301
00:13:33,513 --> 00:13:36,183
That ship sailed
a long time ago.
302
00:13:36,216 --> 00:13:39,252
How about at least
a referee?
303
00:13:39,286 --> 00:13:41,754
I think I'd be
too easy to bribe.
304
00:13:41,788 --> 00:13:43,723
Fair point.
305
00:13:43,756 --> 00:13:47,560
Oh! How 'bout you just
go into construction like
your old man, huh?
306
00:13:47,594 --> 00:13:52,665
Eh, no offense dad, but
that sounds like
a whole lot of work.
307
00:13:52,699 --> 00:13:54,634
And the military
ain't a whole lot of work?
308
00:13:54,667 --> 00:13:57,104
At least you can fire a gun.
309
00:13:57,137 --> 00:13:59,606
- You can fire a nail gun.
- Mmm...
310
00:14:01,441 --> 00:14:04,011
Hey, what are you
guys talking about?
311
00:14:04,044 --> 00:14:06,980
Nothing. Just Dad trying to
sell me on some careers.
312
00:14:07,014 --> 00:14:08,715
No, no. Not sell.
313
00:14:08,748 --> 00:14:10,750
I'm just having a
conversation with the boy.
314
00:14:10,783 --> 00:14:14,321
Tony, you need to
stop pressuring Devin.
315
00:14:14,354 --> 00:14:16,789
Here baby, I
made you a sandwich.
316
00:14:16,823 --> 00:14:17,790
Thanks, mom.
317
00:14:17,824 --> 00:14:19,426
Mm-oh! And oops...
318
00:14:19,459 --> 00:14:23,596
looks like I just happened
to leave this brochure
about how to become a fireman
319
00:14:23,630 --> 00:14:25,132
laying right there,
you see?
320
00:14:25,165 --> 00:14:29,036
Really? Really? You want our
boy to be a firefighter?
321
00:14:29,069 --> 00:14:32,772
If that just so happens to
be what he wants to
do, then yeah!
322
00:14:32,805 --> 00:14:35,475
I mean after all,
they are heroes.
323
00:14:35,508 --> 00:14:36,944
Can you imagine?
324
00:14:36,944 --> 00:14:39,246
Devin tryin' to save us if
this house was burning
down or something?
325
00:14:39,279 --> 00:14:41,548
He wheezes just
goin' down the stairs.
326
00:14:41,581 --> 00:14:44,517
Whatever. Please, they sleep
most of the day, Tony.
327
00:14:44,952 --> 00:14:47,554
How often are
there fires anyway, Tony?
Seriously?
328
00:14:47,587 --> 00:14:50,323
If this place was on fire would
you want Devin, to come rescue
us?
329
00:14:50,357 --> 00:14:52,059
I'm telling you there's rarely
any fires.
330
00:14:52,092 --> 00:14:52,725
Answer the question.
331
00:14:52,759 --> 00:14:58,131
[Both talking]
332
00:14:58,165 --> 00:14:59,099
Look what you did Tony!
333
00:14:59,332 --> 00:15:01,301
-Me?
-You chased Devin away.
334
00:15:01,969 --> 00:15:04,537
You know what, I know just the
person to handle this.
335
00:15:06,373 --> 00:15:08,375
Hey Dad, how's it going? You
think you could come by the
house,
336
00:15:08,408 --> 00:15:09,977
a little bit later? We have a
situation.
337
00:15:10,877 --> 00:15:13,346
Appreciate it. Watch this.
338
00:15:13,380 --> 00:15:18,986
[Instrumental Music]
339
00:15:19,252 --> 00:15:20,153
Hey Devin.
340
00:15:20,820 --> 00:15:21,454
'Sup, dad?
341
00:15:21,488 --> 00:15:24,057
Oh, not much, just wanted to
have a quick conversation with
ya.
342
00:15:24,091 --> 00:15:25,892
I've been doing some thinking,
and you know what,
343
00:15:26,126 --> 00:15:26,726
you're right.
344
00:15:27,594 --> 00:15:28,495
Right?
345
00:15:28,528 --> 00:15:29,396
I'm never right.
346
00:15:29,429 --> 00:15:30,630
What's going on, dad?
347
00:15:31,198 --> 00:15:33,433
I think that the
military might be the
right move for you.
348
00:15:33,466 --> 00:15:36,003
Especially the way you
blowing these guys' heads
off in this video game.
349
00:15:36,003 --> 00:15:39,039
I just want to let you know,
that's what you decide,
you have my total support.
350
00:15:39,072 --> 00:15:40,040
Really, dad?
351
00:15:40,073 --> 00:15:41,408
Absolutely.
352
00:15:41,441 --> 00:15:43,610
Besides, I think any job
is better than sitting
around on your ass
353
00:15:43,643 --> 00:15:45,012
playing video
games all day.
354
00:15:45,012 --> 00:15:47,480
Good 'Cause I already
went and saw a recruiter.
355
00:15:47,514 --> 00:15:50,017
A recruiter? Did you
sign anything?
356
00:15:50,317 --> 00:15:51,684
No, of course not.
357
00:15:51,718 --> 00:15:53,753
I can't sign
until I turn 18.
358
00:15:53,786 --> 00:15:54,687
Oh thank God.
359
00:15:54,721 --> 00:15:55,822
I, I mean cool, cool,
that's cool, cool.
360
00:15:55,855 --> 00:15:56,889
[Door bell]
361
00:15:56,923 --> 00:15:57,857
I wonder who that
could be.
362
00:16:01,028 --> 00:16:02,695
Dad! What a pleasant surprise.
363
00:16:03,030 --> 00:16:04,131
Boy, what the hell
you talking about?
364
00:16:04,164 --> 00:16:05,465
- You told me to-
Ah, ah, ah!
365
00:16:05,498 --> 00:16:08,135
Hey uh, Devin, put the
game down and say
hi to your grandpa.
366
00:16:08,168 --> 00:16:09,169
Hey, grandpa.
367
00:16:10,037 --> 00:16:11,104
Well, how's it
going, Devin?
368
00:16:11,438 --> 00:16:12,072
I'm good.
369
00:16:12,672 --> 00:16:14,041
Good? You mean great.
370
00:16:14,074 --> 00:16:15,575
Tell him about how many
schools you got accepted to.
371
00:16:16,043 --> 00:16:17,444
Not that many. Just four.
372
00:16:17,477 --> 00:16:19,112
Oh, that's great, I'm
glad to hear it.
373
00:16:19,146 --> 00:16:21,881
MM-hmm. One of them
is Howard, dad.
374
00:16:22,349 --> 00:16:24,684
Oh, well he doesn't
need to be going
to an HBCU.
375
00:16:25,252 --> 00:16:25,852
Why not?
376
00:16:26,053 --> 00:16:28,455
He gets enough of the
black experience around here.
377
00:16:29,822 --> 00:16:31,658
Dad, whose side are you on?
378
00:16:31,691 --> 00:16:33,460
I'm on the side
of both of you.
379
00:16:33,926 --> 00:16:35,328
Which school are
going to boy?
380
00:16:35,362 --> 00:16:36,729
Mm, this is gonna be
good. Tell him.
381
00:16:37,364 --> 00:16:40,467
Actually, I'm not going
to college. I'm going
to the military.
382
00:16:41,634 --> 00:16:42,902
What do you
think of that, dad? Huh?
383
00:16:43,603 --> 00:16:44,704
I think that's great.
384
00:16:44,737 --> 00:16:46,706
Exactly! What? Huh?
You think it's what?
385
00:16:47,507 --> 00:16:49,509
Yeah, it'll make a
man out of him!
386
00:16:49,742 --> 00:16:51,678
[Gasps]
Dad, what're you sayin'?
387
00:16:52,179 --> 00:16:53,846
See, Grandpa get's it.
388
00:16:54,147 --> 00:16:55,415
I'ma do great
in the military.
389
00:16:55,448 --> 00:16:57,884
Yes, you will. The
military builds character.
390
00:16:57,917 --> 00:16:59,419
And I get to see
the world, and-
391
00:16:59,452 --> 00:17:01,454
And you get to
learn discipline.
392
00:17:01,954 --> 00:17:04,624
Gettin' up at 5 A.M.,
running drills.
393
00:17:04,657 --> 00:17:06,793
5am? What part of the game
is that?
394
00:17:07,727 --> 00:17:08,895
You'e seen the
commercials.
395
00:17:08,928 --> 00:17:11,698
They do more before 8 A.M.
than most people do all day.
396
00:17:12,365 --> 00:17:14,534
But I thought that was
'cause they're in a
different time zone.
397
00:17:15,235 --> 00:17:17,104
Yeah, this boy'll get
into shape fast.
398
00:17:17,104 --> 00:17:19,306
Nothing like carrying a
backpack up the side of a
399
00:17:19,339 --> 00:17:21,674
steep mountain
weighing 50 pounds.
400
00:17:21,708 --> 00:17:23,776
- Mm-hmm.
- Like that?
- Just like that!
401
00:17:23,810 --> 00:17:26,146
Mm-hmm. And what if you
get stationed in the
Middle East? Oh man, that's
402
00:17:26,179 --> 00:17:28,948
easy 110, 150, 60 degrees.
403
00:17:29,282 --> 00:17:31,151
Ah but listen,
it's not all bad.
404
00:17:31,184 --> 00:17:34,921
You don't have but a
couple of years to do, unless...
405
00:17:37,190 --> 00:17:38,425
Unless what?
406
00:17:38,791 --> 00:17:39,492
You know.
407
00:17:39,526 --> 00:17:41,128
You've seen them war movies.
408
00:17:42,129 --> 00:17:43,563
But I like my legs.
409
00:17:44,297 --> 00:17:47,467
Man your legs are
a small price to pay
for being a hero.
410
00:17:47,867 --> 00:17:49,302
And what you need
your legs for anyway?
411
00:17:49,336 --> 00:17:50,870
You'll get shipped home
early, then you can sit
412
00:17:50,903 --> 00:17:52,639
around all day on your
ass, playing video games.
413
00:17:53,039 --> 00:17:59,146
Well, what I was saying is
that I was thinking about
going into the military,
414
00:17:59,146 --> 00:18:01,781
but I think I should let
all my other options play
out, you know.
415
00:18:01,814 --> 00:18:03,650
'Cause college isn't
that bad of an idea either.
416
00:18:03,683 --> 00:18:05,918
Nah, the military'll
pay for your college.
417
00:18:06,319 --> 00:18:08,555
- He needs to sign up
tomorrow.
- Mm-hmm.
418
00:18:08,588 --> 00:18:10,690
See but I can't
because I'm not 18.
419
00:18:10,723 --> 00:18:12,559
That's fine, I'll sign
as your legal guardian.
420
00:18:12,592 --> 00:18:14,627
And then the day after your
18th birthday, you'll ship out.
421
00:18:14,661 --> 00:18:15,762
Ship out where?
422
00:18:15,795 --> 00:18:16,996
Wherever the
country needs you.
423
00:18:17,029 --> 00:18:19,699
Nothing like bonding with
your best friend in a ditch,
424
00:18:19,999 --> 00:18:21,801
waiting for the
enemy to strike.
425
00:18:21,834 --> 00:18:23,703
Uh, mom?
426
00:18:23,736 --> 00:18:26,173
Yeah, I- I'm coming, right
away! Right away!
427
00:18:26,206 --> 00:18:27,006
I didn't hear nothing.
428
00:18:28,308 --> 00:18:30,177
Dad, you're getting old
and your hearing's
going bad.
429
00:18:30,210 --> 00:18:32,712
Mom needs me. I'll be
right there mom.
430
00:18:32,745 --> 00:18:34,181
[Chuckling]
431
00:18:34,181 --> 00:18:35,047
That worked great.
432
00:18:35,081 --> 00:18:37,049
Yes and it worked on you.
433
00:18:37,417 --> 00:18:38,185
Hey!
434
00:18:38,185 --> 00:18:39,452
[Instrumental Music]
435
00:18:47,360 --> 00:18:48,895
How much longer you
gonna do, Shauna?
436
00:18:48,928 --> 00:18:51,431
Well I got four more
years and then
I'm looking at a fat
437
00:18:51,464 --> 00:18:53,333
retirement check and
free benefits for life.
438
00:18:53,366 --> 00:18:54,867
Mm! I'll toast to that.
439
00:18:55,435 --> 00:18:56,469
[All] HooRah!
440
00:18:56,903 --> 00:18:59,206
[Laughing]
441
00:18:59,239 --> 00:19:01,841
Alright, alright. At ease, at
ease.
442
00:19:02,809 --> 00:19:05,578
Mom, Dad, can I holla
at ya'll for a moment?
443
00:19:05,845 --> 00:19:06,979
What's on your mind, soldier?
444
00:19:07,214 --> 00:19:09,549
Um yeah, about that.
445
00:19:09,582 --> 00:19:11,218
I don't think the
military is for me.
446
00:19:11,851 --> 00:19:13,386
- No offense.
- Oh, none taken.
447
00:19:13,953 --> 00:19:16,223
Come on! The punches!
Stand down.
448
00:19:16,223 --> 00:19:18,491
[Laughing]
449
00:19:18,858 --> 00:19:20,227
Really, Devin?
450
00:19:20,493 --> 00:19:23,095
Yeah I think I should just
explore my options in college.
451
00:19:24,063 --> 00:19:25,064
Hmm, College...
452
00:19:25,365 --> 00:19:27,099
Sounds like a very
smart choice.
453
00:19:27,133 --> 00:19:29,502
Now listen, if you wanna
go to San Diego,
454
00:19:29,536 --> 00:19:31,003
Oregon, you have my
full support.
455
00:19:31,037 --> 00:19:33,005
Actually, I was
thinking Howard.
456
00:19:34,106 --> 00:19:35,775
Cancel the DNA
test, that is my son.
457
00:19:35,808 --> 00:19:37,610
-Stop.
-So proud.
458
00:19:37,644 --> 00:19:39,279
Why the sudden change, honey?
459
00:19:39,546 --> 00:19:43,450
I went on Howard's
website and they have a great
video game design program.
460
00:19:43,750 --> 00:19:46,886
Did you know they
teach more than
just Black History classes?
461
00:19:47,554 --> 00:19:51,157
Uh yeah, it's an
accredited university, son.
462
00:19:51,258 --> 00:19:52,091
You know what, Devin?
463
00:19:52,124 --> 00:19:54,361
I took the military as my
career path, but
464
00:19:54,394 --> 00:19:55,928
I think you're gonna be
really happy at Howard.
465
00:19:55,962 --> 00:19:57,264
Yeah, I think so, too.
466
00:19:58,265 --> 00:20:00,132
Oh, my little boy is
going to college!
467
00:20:01,268 --> 00:20:03,002
Whoo! I need to grab another
bottle.
468
00:20:04,271 --> 00:20:05,638
I need the little girl's room.
469
00:20:06,639 --> 00:20:11,177
[Chuckling]
470
00:20:11,678 --> 00:20:13,713
Alright, now that your mama's
gone, you can tell me the truth.
471
00:20:13,746 --> 00:20:14,847
You went online and saw them
472
00:20:14,881 --> 00:20:16,849
homecoming photo's from
Howard, didn't you?
473
00:20:17,284 --> 00:20:18,651
- You better know it.
- I know it!
474
00:20:19,218 --> 00:20:20,920
Nothing but dime-pieces!
475
00:20:21,220 --> 00:20:22,555
You gonna be
swimming in that!
476
00:20:22,589 --> 00:20:24,056
- You already know!
- You gonna have a good
time.
477
00:20:24,090 --> 00:20:25,792
You gonna have
a good time.
478
00:20:26,393 --> 00:20:29,329
You want some wine?
You ain 't that old.
Take off.
