- Stupid idiot!

- What happened out there?

You have to stop.

- I know, but I can't.

- Listen, he put his stuff in a box and got out

just like you wanted.

- He dangled this box on a string.

He knew my crazy obsession with fancy old cars and clocks.

He dangled it in front of me like a pendulum clock

'til I grabbed it and inside was this ring.

- Listen, we have been down this road before,

but today, we're gonna go down a new path.

No more throwing his stuff all over here,

and out there,

and no more wearing this ring.

- Okay, I got it.

This was fun, but I have to go to the store.

- Okay, well, you know what?

You're in no condition to drive.

Clearly, have you seen what you did

to the front yard? - Seriously Molly,

I have to go to the store.

You can come if you want.

- Okay, let's go.

Paving a new road.

- Have you guys seen Ms. Adams this week?

- No.

- Well, I'm kind of glad that she isn't here

because she's always so drunk.

- It's you again? - Hello?

Someone doesn't know fat kids aren't welcome here.

- Leave me alone.

- Oh my gosh, guys, look at her shoes.

She got her shoes from my garage sale.

- She's so ugly.

- I bet her mom's ugly too. - Those shoes are baby shoes.

Why are you wearing them?

And look at that hair clip,

it looks like it's from 2009.

- Overheard what you guys are saying to that little girl,

and that's just not cool.

What you guys are doing is being a bully.

I fought my whole life as a professional fighter.

Never nothing like this.

Hey, come on.

- Dude, beat me again.

Who are you texting?

- None of your business.

- Lemme see. - Outta here.

- You guys are a bunch of girls.

- Girls, girl, it's a girl.

You're texting a girl.

- Dude, chill, she just wants to see my video.

- Video?

Are you making adult films?

- Be quiet, it's my dancing.

- Dancing.

Are you dancing in adult films?

- Be serious, bro.

- Are you texting Clara? - Clara?

- Isn't her father the mayor?

- Well, yeah, at least she has a father.

- Come on bro.

You have a father.

- Yeah, a father who lives in a cell with weirdos.

You know, it's been five years since I've heard from him.

At least Mr. Mayor is interested in my life.

- Hey, Wesley, why don't you and your nasty friends

go get your grandmother some milk?

- Nasty?

She's nasty.

- Come on, let's go.

- Camila.

- Hey, didn't you see

how your kids were treating my daughter?

- Excuse me?

- You heard me.

- I don't see any problem here.

It looks like everybody's getting along just fine.

You're not trying to pick a fight

with me right now, are you?

- Come on, honey.

- Molly!

Oh my God!

What am I gonna do?

They took everything.

- What is that?

"Have a nice day."

Have a nice day?

Who do they think they are?

- This is all that I have since my divorce.

You know what Cole said to me

when he found out I was opening this store?

What do you think?

- What, about the lack of food around here?

- No, about the store.

I can name it The Golden Poppy after my nana.

- Are you gonna name it, The Golden Poppy after your nana?

- Yeah. - You're joking.

- But I thought it would be nice that-

- How many times do I have to explain this to you, Nora?

You're not that kind of girl.

I mean, something like this takes real brains,

which you clearly lack.

- But I... But, but, but,

but you thought

that I would just bankroll your entire storefront?

Are you kidding?

I'm not giving you one penny

towards any of your idiotic ideas.

You know what?

I have an idea for you since you wanna act all golden

and impress me.

Why don't you make poppy a sandwich, huh?

- You know what we're gonna do?

We're gonna find out who left this note,

that's what we're gonna do.

"Have a nice day."

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Mom, I'm gonna be late.

- Yo!

- Hey, I can't text everything that I wanna say.

Wesley, listen, I know that you're struggling

with your grandmother right now,

but I just wanted to let you know that I'm here for you

if you need someone to talk to.

- I've been struggling my whole life.

I'm grateful my grandma even took me in after my mom passed,

but she's treating me bad since day one.

Like she's mad that her daughter married a Black man.

And my dad, he decides

to abandon me the minute he walked behind bars.

- You should tell someone

about the way that your grandmother treats you.

She shouldn't get away with that.

I'm sorry, but that's bullying.

She's literally bullying her own grandson.

As for your dad, try writing him.

- I have, and I gave up.

19 letters, 19, all ignored.

- Wesley, I'm sorry, that's horrible.

- What's God trying to teach me

with a bully of a grandma and a no good locked up dad?

- Maybe He's trying to teach you

that you're stronger than you think you are.

You've taught me how to be strong as well.

- Maybe you're right.

- Let's talk about something else.

You should talk to me about those dance moves.

- Hey Avery.

- We had another incident at the playground today.

- Another one?

- Yeah, if it's not at the playground,

it's at school.

If it's not at school, it's on the school bus.

Eden, it literally breaks my heart.

- I'm so sorry.

No child should have to go through that.

Where are the parents,

and what is the school doing about it?

- That's what I'm saying.

You'd think they'd pay attention to anti-bullying policies,

but the issue is constantly overlooked and ignored.

- That is too bad.

What do you say we take her mind off of things

and let her use that beautiful little voice of hers.

You ready to rock and roll?

How about if we have a good practice,

you can have the lollipop?

- This place needs a new security system like yesterday.

- Thank you, officer.

- Little advice, invest in a better security system.

This one dates back a while.

- What's a while?

- Have you ever replaced the system

since you moved back here?

All units, go

for 4730 Crystals Springs Avenue.

- We got a call.

- We'll be in touch soon.

- Really?

- I'm just trying to make you smile.

Don't you remember?

- One, two, buckle my shoe.

- Three four, shut the door.

Find me a prince and take me away.

- Okay, Nora, close your eyes.

I'm gonna wave this scarf around you

'cause it has some magical powers

and your prince will arrive.

Abracadabra, calling upon the gentleman!

- Did it work?

- Molly?

Molly? - Yeah.

Sorry.

- Molly, I've gotta do something to save this place.

It means so much to me.

I have dreamt of making my nana proud,

and I've gotten to this point.

I just gotta turn it around.

Thanks, this one's going to my mom.

She has a collection.

- My mom asked me what I wanna be when I grow up.

I think I wanna be an astronaut.

Fly to the moon and the stars.

- That would be cool.

You know what I wanna do? - What?

- I wanna own a really cool store like my nana,

and sell all sorts of things that everyone wants,

like colorful clothes and shoes and stuff.

I can name it poppy, my nana's favorite flower.

- You better have really cool shirts

with the moon and the stars on them too.

- I have an idea.

What about a talent show?

- Want me to do this in it?

- No, please.

What if we had a talent show, the store could host it

and all the proceeds could go towards a grand reopening.

- The winner would get what?

- I don't know, maybe performing

at this year's bicentennial celebration and a cash prize.

- What kind of talent? - Well, any talents.

- Any ages? - All ages.

- Huh, this could work.

- This has to work.

- Yo, Benny, what's going on bro?

You hear from your boy yet, man?

- I haven't heard nothing from him.

- Still?

- Clearly, he hates me.

It's been like five years.

I've written him letters.

He never responds.

Boo!

- Rooster, move along.

You just bought yourself kitchen duty.

- Man, that sucks about your kid, man.

It sucks as bad a Rooster over there.

Maybe he got the wrong opinion of you, man?

You're an innocent man.

You're gonna be proven innocent.

I mean, they just got to.

- Look, I don't know what he thinks.

I'm never gonna give up trying, never.

My crazy ex-wife,

I know she's not treating Wesley right.

- I wouldn't even worry about her, man.

She's definitely get hers for sure.

- What's go on in here, ladies?

- Yeah, ain't you too cozy like?

- You two lost are you?

Move along, or it's kitchen duty all year.

- Those guys, man. - Which one?

Look, if I ever get up outta here, I'm fixing all this.

- Oh man, you can't leave me in here

with all these people, man.

You especially can't leave me alone with Rooster in here.

- Hey, are you talking about me?

Are you talking about me?

- Rooster, kitchen, now!

- Come on boss, you know he's just a big joker.

- Shut up, James.

Back to your cell now.

- Let's go, move!

We've waited 10 years to get this going.

We have, but we now have a developer.

You sure Town Park is interested?

We're almost there, Mayor.

- Almost there is not good enough, Joe.

- We have one more meeting

and we're feeling very optimistic

we'll get those signatures.

- Well, it's closer than we've ever been

for this kind of project.

We need those retailers.

Think of the economic boost.

- Community needs us.

The only excitement we have around here

is the bicentennial celebration.

- Yes, yes, I agree with Henry and Joe.

This community has been begging for more options.

- Henry, are we keeping you up?

- No.

- Your tax dollar's hard at sleep.

- All righty then, so let's table this for now

until we get those signatures.

Hopefully, Town Park will see the value,

- Get those signatures.

- Is there any other business

before we open the floor?

Okay, so we will move to the floor now.

Is there anybody from the community here who has an issue

that they want to discuss?

Please raise your hand.

- What's your name, Ms?

- Oh, hi, come on up.

- Hello, my name is Nora Jeffries.

- What issues and concerns would you like to present

to the city today, Ms. Jeffries?

- Well, it isn't an issue per se as it is an idea.

I'm the owner of The Golden Poppy on Fifth,

and I would like to host a all citywide talent show

with the board's approval of course.

- What's this have to do with the city?

- Well, I would love the winner of the talent show

to perform at this year's bicentennial celebration.

And I know you all put that on so...

- So a talent show?

And what exactly would our part be?

- Well, I could use your help actually,

but I would help plan the whole thing

and with advertising, sponsorships, ticket sales,

and all the great talent we have here in Briar Glen,

I think we could put on a great show,

and then the proceeds would be split.

- Between? - Your mini mall

that I heard you talking about earlier and my store.

- And what's wrong with your store, Mr. Jeffries?

- Well, it's been robbed,

bankrupt, but it doesn't matter.

It's time for a fresh new start

and I think that a mini mall would be perfect

in Briar Glenn.

- You know what guys?

I really like this.

- Honestly, I do too.

My grandson could be in it, he's amazing.

- Quite frankly, we need help

with the bicentennial event,

especially with the Town Park deal.

- This could work.

Hey, any extra financial support we can get, I'm all for.

Heck, it could even go towards the marketing

and signage for the new mall.

- Okay, so all in favor?

Aye.

- All opposed, same sign?

- You work with these guys,

Amanda and Ashley will help you with everything else.

Yay!

How have things been going at school?

- Mmm.

- Are the mean kids still giving you a hard time?

- They threw my backpack in the trash today.

- Well, that sure is a trashy thing to do, isn't it?

- Hey Eden, what's this?

- Oh, that's a talent show that a local shop's putting on.

The winner actually gets to perform

at the local bicentennial celebration this year.

- You're kidding.

- You know, you really should think

about putting Avery in it.

It might get her mind off the bullying.

Plus, I think she would honestly do really good,

and who couldn't use $1,000 prize?

- Yeah, I think that's a great idea,

- Bro, wanna see this YouTube video that I found?

Bro, this guy can dance.

- Guys!

- Bro, do you even know how to knock?

- Oh, sorry, my bad, one second.

- Come in. - Come on.

- Boys, we're on a mission.

- I don't even wanna know what this is.

- This right here, this is our ticket.

- To what?

- I believe you would like to see this.

- What is it?

- A talent show?

- Yes, and you're gonna win it.

We're finally gonna get that car we've been eyeing.

- I'm not buying a car.

- Dude, it's for cruising with the ladies.

- Mason, you don't have any ladies.

- I know, that's my point.

It's because we don't have the car.

No, it's because you don't have the game.

I got game.

- All right, gimme your best pickup line.

- Okay.

Doesn't really work, but,

hey girl, did you just fart because I just got blown away.

Okay, I got game.

- Look, I'm not gonna be in this talent show.

- Come on, Wesman.

Your moves are fire, bro.

But hey, if you don't wanna do it, that's fine.

Be a coward.

It's your loss anyway.

- Mason, it sounds like it's your loss.

- Man, what do you know?

Help, help Wesley!

- Have you heard from the police yet?

- Not yet, I did research some security systems though.

Hey, this is promising, 22 registrations already.

It looks like there's some interest in our talent show.

- Oh, let me see.

- And this is what we've raised so far.

- Nora, that is great.

- It's good, right?

Sponsorships are rolling in.

I gotta say, I'm getting excited.

- Wait a minute.

Are you still wearing that ring?

Oh, I know, you are still married to him.

- What do you think? - You're going like that?

- Yeah, I thought that we-

- Save it, I'd rather not be embarrassed by you again,

so go change.

You dropped out of college, Nora,

and what do you know about business anyways?

- My mom got sick, Cole.

- I'm tired of hearing that.

You're just like her.

Are you trying to spend my whole paycheck?

- It's just a few groceries.

- Only a few groceries?

Your cooking is mediocre at best.

If you're gonna waste my money,

why don't you put it towards something that you can use

like a gym membership.

- Taking off this ring is like admitting another failure.

I mean, I will, just not yet.

- You and I, we're friends forever,

but you gotta move past it all.

He's literally keeping you from moving forward,

and Cole is definitely not worth that.

We did have some good times though.

- Hey, can you help me with mine, please?

- Yeah.

- Who did it?

This behavior is completely unacceptable.

This entire class will go to the principal's office

if I don't have a name.

Come on Avery, let's get you to the nurse.

- You know, this school really needs to get with the times,

stop looking past the struggles these kids have

inside their classrooms and hallways.

I'm not afraid of making my opinion known again.

How's she doing?

- With the kids at school?

- Well, I suppose that too.

I was asking about practice.

- You know Jason, I think she's getting excited.

Eden is certainly excited.

She also hopes she might help her take her mind

off her troubles at school.

I guess I'm hoping it will too.

- Wonder if those bullies have any talent?

- They do, running their mouths.

Yeah, I just hope she gains a little more confidence.

I mean, I know we do all we can for her here at home,

but a little more confidence will go a long way,

a little more strength.

- I think she already has strength,

and that honey, comes from you.

- Her mama could use a little more strength

every now and then too,

and maybe some coffee.

- Henry, we gotta get those other contracts.

How much do you love me?

- It depends on what you're gonna tell me.

- Wow, assuming this conversation

is hush hush for Mrs. Mayor.

- Oh, come on.

Check it out. - You got it?

- We sure did.

- You got it!

- The Town Park's CEO signature in black and white.

- Fantastic.

- Right, I love you and Henry when he's awake.

- Is it true?

- Right here in black and white?

- Oh, yes!

This, you guys, starts the growth of our city.

- Make sure you get with Ms. Jeffries and Michelle.

- Even more to celebrate now with the bicentennial, Henry.

- Are you ever awake, seriously?

- When I'm driving, sure.

- Really? - Great job.

- Yeah, I can't wait to tell everyone.

- Hey, the new mini mall is coming to a city near you.

- Awesome.

- Increase in much needed revenue.

Breaking news this afternoon,

the city of Briar Glen has announced construction

of a brand new mini mall consisting of 18 retailers,

each expected to occupy the new site by next August.

Now, this project partially being supported

by Town Park Corporation, will bring a slew of jobs

to the city and an increase in much needed revenue.

The mayor has told WKTO that Briar Glenn is on the way

to becoming a more self-sustainable community.

This is Vanessa Warren with WKTO Channel 10.

Back to you, Sam.

- Thank you, Vanessa.

And onto to the entertainment segment.

Dozens of talented individuals in the Briar Glen

and the surrounding areas are getting geared up

for what one calls the talent show of the decade.

The talent show will be held in December,

and the city of Briar Glen has agreed

to a special performance

at this year's bicentennial celebration for the winner.

Nora Jeffries, owner of The Golden Poppy

in downtown Briar Glen is spearheading the event

along with the city.

- Will you look at that.

- You know Nora, looking at these sponsors,

I really think the profit margin is gonna be huge.

- That's great. - Great.

- You ladies need anything else?

- I don't think so, thank you. - I hate to be nosy,

but are you Nora Jeffries?

- Yes, I am.

- Cole and I go way back.

It's a shame what happened to you two.

Cole is such a great guy.

I understand he left you?

Well, here's your check, no rush,

hope y'all have a lovely day.

- Unbelievable, she just lost her tip.

- Right? - Yeah, right.

- Nora, your store might have a bright future

if things go the way I think they will.

How many acts do we have registered so far?

- So far, we have 30. - 30?

- Yeah. - Are you serious?

- Yeah.

- Wow, that's fantastic.

- But you know, I think maybe a little bit too many

for one talent show.

I don't know.

What do you think?

We might have to weed some of those out.

- I'd like to weed out that rude waitress,

that's what I'd like to do.

Molly.

- And the winner has to be fantastic.

So the more talent we see, the better.

And the governor is coming, so let's impress him.

- Nice.

- And I agree with you.

We'll have to weed this thing down a bit.

- Okay, what if we have a round one

and we'll let everyone take the stage

and show us what they got.

Then we can allow the judges to award a top 15 or something?

- And we'll announce the top five

until there's one contestant left standing.

- The final contestant.

- Yes, brilliant. - You got it.

- I like that.

- Hey, how's everything at home?

- Camila's never there.

If she is there, she's finding something to complain about.

And she found out that I registered

to compete in a talent show.

- I'm scared to ask.

- She won't come.

She'll say she's sick.

- Uh-oh, who's sick?

- Oh, no one, dad.

- Wesley, good to see here.

Studying I see.

- Good evening, Mayor Robbins.

- Michael is fine.

- Hey honey, look what came today.

- Mom, stop.

- Congratulations on being accepted to Highland University.

You did it, Clara!

- Thanks, but we don't have to talk about this right now.

- Clara, we're so proud of you.

You have our full support no matter where you choose to go.

- Oh, Wesley, Claire tells me you registered

for the talent show.

- Yes sir, I did. - I think that's great.

They asked me to be a judge.

I'm looking forward to it.

Hey, why don't you come over for dinner sometime,

especially since you're helping Clara

with her math homework,

not a banner subject for her if you may have noticed.

- Honey, she gets it, honestly.

- I gotta go.

My grandma's gonna have my high

if I don't get home to her supper.

- Well, it's so good to see you again, Wesley.

You're welcome anytime.

And we can't wait to cheer you on at the talent show.

- Bye.

Thanks for all the math help.

Clearly, I need it.

- And clearly, you get it honestly.

I love your family.

They're so chill

. Your dad is more of a dad to me than my own.

- We're always here for you.

You know, just try and stay positive.

One day, maybe all of this will make sense,

but until then, just go out there on that stage and shine

and show them all who you really are.

- That's the plan.

- I'm telling you, Molly, the mayor's really impressed

with what we've accomplished so far.

Yes, that means you too.

Yeah, I'm at the store now.

Okay, I'll see you soon, bye.

What are you doing here?

- Shopping. - I don't want any trouble.

- Trouble?

You mean like the trouble that you've been causing me

since you kicked me outta my house?

- That's my house.

And I'm not rehashing this with you today.

- You probably don't even have the time seeing

as all I'm seeing

is your pretty little face scattered all over the news.

But don't worry, Nora, I'll be right here cheering you on.

- What's that? - If it was any

of your business, I'd let you know.

- Right, I bought you dinner.

I'm heading to the school.

- For what? - For practice.

- For that talent thing you're doing?

- Yeah, that talent thing.

- You know, it'd be good to watch your manners.

Nobody wanted you when your mama died and I stepped up.

I could use little thanks now and then.

- I never asked you for any favors.

I gotta go.

Enjoy your dinner.

- We are just two weeks away

from the most talked about event in Briar Glen,

the talent show brought to you by Nora Jeffries

and the city will be featuring some

of Briar Glen's most talented.

The elimination round will be happening next week

with the final contestants taking the stage thereafter.

It's your last chance to get tickets

to support these individuals

and to help raise funding

for the new mini mall expected next year.

- Hello?

Well, when did this happen?

Oh my gosh.

Okay, I'll be right there.

Avery, are you okay?

- Is this my fault, mommy? - What?

No, of course it's not your fault.

It's not your shortcoming.

Bethany, what happened?

- Some kids, they tripped her in the hallway.

They said it was an accident.

The school, they decided to call the squad

and bring her here and it's precautionary.

I hope that's okay.

- Yes, well, I appreciate you Bethany,

but I just wish...

Is everything gonna be okay?

- She's good, she's got a little bump on her head for sure,

but we did a full examination

and she passed with flying colors.

All I could say is she might be a little sore

for a couple of days.

Other than that, she's looking good.

Just a small little goosebump.

- So what about the school?

I get it.

You only have so much leverage as a teacher,

but I think I have a right

to ask if they're gonna do anything about this.

- There are cameras in the hallways,

and once the footage has been reviewed,

parents will be contacted.

- I'm not sure parents really care these days,

or the school for that matter.

- Trust me, Avery isn't the only one being picked on.

Principal Summers, all we're saying

is this is unprecedented.

- We've been very patient until this point,

but our patience has now worn thick.

- Exactly, our daughter's been going here for two years

and there've been no changes.

- We're expecting you to do something about this,

and this is on your shoulders.

- There needs to be consequences

for those who are putting her in this situation.

- And it's time for our community to get better from you,

the families, the children, everyone.

- We're gonna use a lot of this space here.

Hey, good evening, Mr. Mayor.

It's nice to see you again.

- Mark, it's always a pleasure.

- Absolutely.

- Who are my fellow judges today?

- Oh, this is Anna Lee Collins.

I believe you've met a time or two

through your campaigning years.

- Yes, Mayor, it is wonderful to see you again.

- And this is Olivia Niles, owner of Nile Construction,

who's building your new retail complex.

- Yes, and thank you so much

for allowing our company to help.

- So how many acts do we have today?

- 44.

- There are that many talented people in Briar Glen?

- Yeah, I saw a few earlier.

I wouldn't say they're all talented.

- Guys, I think they're ready to get started.

- As you know, tonight is a way

to narrow down the contestants

who will be performing in the actual talent show next week.

Judges, you've been instructed on the scoring.

Okay, let's kick it off

with contestant number one, Matt Thomas.

♪ I'ma shine I'ma shine I'ma shine ♪

♪ Get ready get get get ready ♪

- Hello, everybody, my name is Ivan.

I'm here to transform an adult into a baby.

Please excuse me while I prepare for the transformation.

Behold, baby George.

Oh, I'll need these for later.

- I'm afraid what he's gonna pull out of his pants next.

- And now, one of our youngest contestants, Avery Daniels.

- How old is she?

- Says here, she's eight.

- Did I miss anything?

- A comb?

- What, my hair?

That should keep you up.

Ivan for mayor.

- You heard the scoop on old Benson, didn't you?

- I mean, I've heard some chatter throughout the town.

- Turns out they're investigating a guy

whose prints were found

at the scene Benson was found guilty for.

- You're kidding, he was framed?

- It's kind of what it looks like.

Dude might have a shot at getting outta here after all.

- Not gonna lie, kind of feel sorry for the guy.

- Hey, hey.

- Girl, last night, amazing!

- It really was.

There's a lot of talent in Briar Glen.

- Oh, well, some questionable talent as well.

Yes.

Hi.

- Hello, Nora Jeffries? - Yes.

- I'm Jonah Daniels.

I'm with the Dayton County News Station.

I'd love to ask you some questions, maybe over a cup of Joe?

For what exactly?

- Well, I'm doing a human interest story

and it's come to my attention,

you're doing some really great things here

in the community with the talent show

despite some of the troubles here

that I heard about at the store.

I think the community

would like to know a lot more about you.

- That sounds great.

I could do a cup of Jonah.

- Oh, all right, tomorrow morning, 10:00 AM

at the Coffee Shack?

- That works.

- Okay, well, I'm gonna give you my card.

I mean, it's somebody's card,

but I'm gonna write my number on it,

and if something happens that you can't make it...

- Then I'll get ahold of you.

- Yeah, well, I mean, you can call me

even if nothing happens, right?

Well, see you tomorrow morning.

- I'll see you then. - All right.

- What was that? - What was what?

- That?

- That was a business invite.

- You were totally flirting.

- I was not!

- A cup of Jonah?

- Did I say Jonah? - Yes.

- Oh, he is kind of cute though.

- Guess what? - What?

- You made the top 15.

- I get to perform again?

- Yes, you do. - Yes, you do.

- Yay!

- Hey, my dad said that you were amazing the other night.

- Yeah, it was mad fun.

Man, I wish you were there.

- Bro, bro.

- Quiet down, please!

- Shh.

- Bro, Jack and I, we got our tickets.

We're so pumped, man.

- Dude, Mason totally thinks you're gonna win

that prize money and get us that new whip.

- You're still on that?

- Yes, riding around in my automobile.

- Mason, grab a book and have a seat!

- Yes sir.

Bro, come on.

Why, hello ladies.

- What you up to, boys?

- How would you ladies like to go riding around

in a new car?

Wesman over there,

he's gonna win it big in the talent show.

- I've heard there's some sick talent in there.

- Have you seen my homeboy dance?

The competition's gonna need to up their game.

- You guys, check out social media.

Kids at school are making fun of Wesley

for being in the talent show.

Look at all the comments.

Why is everyone being so mean?

That's terrible, is that about his dad?

Everyone's laughing, how immature.

- It goes on and on.

People need to quit hiding

behind their phones saying all this.

- Well, here we go.

What are you doing here?

- Surprised? - They actually let you out?

- Without a fight.

Where's Wesley?

- Not here, I told him the truth.

- The truth, that bad things happen to good people?

- Well, not in those words.

- I've written him over a dozen times.

Has he not got my letters?

- Hey, I was just trying to protect the boy.

- You got to be kidding me Camila!

What kind of grandmother hides letters

from their own grandson?

- I did everything I could for you,

and I did it for my baby girl, rest in peace.

- Where's Wesley? - Not here.

Good luck, enjoy the reading.

- What's up boys?

- Boss, what do you wanna do?

You might wanna take a look at this.

- I'm not so sure I'm surprised by any of this.

Are we sure?

- The prints ran through the system twice.

The evidence collected all points to the same person.

- We also ran the security footage

from the retailer across the street.

Boss, what do you wanna do?

- Let's take a little ride.

- Today is the big day.

In just a few short hours,

the top 15 will grace the stage once more

and will battle it out

until the final contestant takes the stage.

I really think Briar Glen is in for a big treat tonight.

What do you think, Sam?

- I think you're right, Vanessa.

Things are getting pretty intense at the talent show

and the sponsors are piling up,

and we're excited to see

that this will help the city's construction project

and how it will help the economy soon thereafter.

- Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats

as Briar Glen's top 15 will be taking the stage

in a few moments.

- Cole Jeffries. - Yeah?

- You need to come with us, sir.

- You're under arrest.

- For what?

- For the robbery at The Golden Poppy.

- Robbery?

I didn't rob that store.

You've gotta be joking.

- The video footage from across the street

of The Poppy says that you did.

- Well, I'm telling you that I didn't.

Get your hands off of me.

- Now would be a good time to remain calm Mr. Jeffries.

- You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can it will be used against you

in a court of law.

- Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

We want to thank all of you for coming tonight

to watch this very important talent show competition.

At this time, I'd like to introduce you to the man

that has the responsibility tonight

of tabulating the scores.

Please welcome to the stage Mr. Frank Tabbart.

- Thank you.

- And with that, he's a man of few words.

At this time, let's go back to the competition.

We hope you enjoy this.

Thank you again for coming.

- Please welcome contestant number two, Wesley James.

- Not really, honestly, I'm not sure he knows I dance.

- Really?

Isn't he out there in the audience cheering you on?

- Yeah, wouldn't that be something?

- Ladies and gentlemen,

your winner tonight knocked my socks off,

and I'm sure yours too.

It was a close one, folks with only a two point difference.

This could have gone either way,

but we only have one top winner tonight.

The person coming in first

and winner of $1,000 grand prize,

who'll also perform

at the city's bicentennial celebration is,

Wesley James.

- Oh my God!

What?

Come on now!

What?

No way, no way!

Yeah!

Yeah!

- Hey, you did an amazing job.

I'm so proud of you.

- Thank you.

- All right, I'll see you Monday, okay?

You have big things in store for you.

- Avery, you did so amazing.

We should hang out more.

Maybe watch movies or something?

- Yeah, sure, that'd be great.

- Okay, see you at school.

- Yeah.

- Avery, I feel really bad about being so mean to you.

It's not nice to treat people like that, I'm sorry.

- It's okay, I forgive you.

- Avery, you did so good.

I'm sorry that dad missed it.

We'll have to catch him up.

Ready to celebrate?

Let's go.

- Yo!

- Yo, what up?

Bro, it was tough when you were in that pop and lock.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, what is that?

What do you mean, bro?

- It's a tie, respect.

- I told him not to wear it.

- Bro, so what's going on with that prize money?

I'm ready to get that whip and get all the ladies.

You know what I'm saying?

Hey, come on, bro.

What up ladies?

- I got him. - All right.

- See ya. - All right, see you, bro.

- Hey, are you coming back to my house later?

- Yeah, I'll try and stop by.

- All right, I'll see you.

- Mason, Mason, where are you going?

- Dad?

- What's up, son?

- I don't understand.

- Well, they can't keep you in there

for something you didn't do.

Man, I'm so proud of you,

what you did up on that stage, son.

Wanna grab something to eat?

- Yes, I'm starving.

- We ain't gotta take you little homies, do we?

Nah.

- If I may have your attention please.

Today is a big day for our school system.

I want our students

to have the best educational experience possible.

We want students excited to come to class, eager to learn,

feel like they are cared for, and supported by faculty

and staff as well as the student body.

- In saying that,

we have implemented a new anti-bullying school policy,

takes effect immediately.

- It's about time.

- Yes, that's what we want.

We need that in our school.

- Look, son, you have to do it like this, okay?

Oh, you want some of me?

- Come on.

Hey, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Bam, bam.

- The school system will report, investigate, document,

and respond to every single bullying report.

- Thank you, thank you!

Finally!

- Students who want to report bullying behavior

will have a safe space to go within our district.

This anti-bullying policy will ensure

that our students, kindergarten to 12th grade are supported

and protected from threats and or harassment at every level.

- Hello, welcome.

- Thank you.

- Hi. - Welcome.

- Thank you.

- Hey pretty lady.

You wanna go for a ride?

- Are you serious?

Of course I'm serious, come on.

- I'll bring her back, Molly.

- Also, the district will not tolerate bullying of any kind.

Yes!

And appropriate measures will be enforced,

including but not limited to suspension, loss of athletics,

removal from the school property,

written and verbal apologies,

school led counseling and behavioral programs,

and ultimately dismissal from this school system.

- Guess what?

I just got off the phone

with the superintendent at Avery's school.

A brand new anti-bullying policy has been put into effect.

Board approval was unanimous.

- Oh my gosh, you're kidding.

- And that's not all,

the policy calls for strict punishment against bullying,

and it's called Avery's Law.

Named after you, Avery.

You're making history.

This is a game changer.

- Ladies and gentlemen, these students are our future.

- Yes, woo!
