♪ Whoa whoa whoa oh oh-h-h ♪

Oh, got my domino set
out there, huh?

Yeah, daddy, I hope
you don't mind.

No, of course not.

Maybe you could help me.

Oh, sure.

Now, each player
gets seven pieces.

The rest goes
into the bone yard.

But, daddy--

Did you know, that dominos

were invented by black Egyptians

to simulate war games.

- But, daddy--
- No, now let me finish.

Now, over the centuries

it evolved into
a European parlor game.

That's where they
got the white dots.

That's very interesting, daddy

but I'm just trying
to figure out

how many of these it's gonna
take to even up this table leg.

Oh.

Three.

Oh, sure, I understand.

Oh, no problem.

Bye.

Damn. That damn fool
Clarence cancelled again.

So what?

All you ever do
is play dominos.

Sometimes I think dominos
is all you have in your life.

That shows how much you know.

We weren't gonna play dominos.

We were going to visit the
National Museum of Ceramic Art.

Well, that's cool, pop.

Yeah, they got a great
exhibit there right now

of ceramic dominos.

Daddy, this is
the fourth time

that Clarence has
cancelled on you.

What's his problem?

I don't wanna
talk about Clarence

or his new girlfriend.

Who-o-oa! So we're
a bit jealous, huh, pop?

Well... I am a little jealous.

All he ever talks
about is her, her, her.

What's her name?

Her.

Short for Hermia.

Oh, listen, daddy.

Now maybe you should just

try to put yourself
in Clarence's place.

I mean after all, he got
a new lady in his life.

And maybe he wants to give
her his special attention.

Yeah? Well, why does he have to
give her my special attention?

Well... anyway...

...after the third
cancellation...

...I figured I'd better
make some contingency plans.

So, I'm seeing somebody
else later on today.

Well, now, see, daddy.

You have somebody to go to the
ceramic museum with after all.

What museum?

We're playing dominos.

Ah! Made it.

Where you been
all night, Joey?

Ah, I got lucky
with some ladies, Roc.

I'm talking about poker,
I had four queens.

Get your minds
out the gutter.

Joey, you do
look pretty tired.

Maybe you should get
on upstairs to bed.

Well, sis, I am pretty tired.

But... there's still
enough strength left

in this poker-wearied body
to pay my brother back.

- Yeah? How much did you win?
- Well, the pot was $280.

But my man Wilton
wasn't good for it.

So he gave his watch in payment.

Roc, I am giving
you Wilton's watch.

Who-o-oa, this is a beauty.

A Folex?

This is some cheap
rip-off watch.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But look here. But look here.

See, if you put
your finger right here

that F looks like an R.
You could have fooled me.

Besides, Roc think how impressed
the other garbagemen will be.

I mean, they'll never know
it's not a real Rolex.

What are they gonna do,
compare it to theirs?

So this watch
is worth 280 bucks?

Uh, no, Wilton's share
of the pot was only $20.

So I got the rest.

I'd rather have the cash.

Well, who wouldn't?

I'll get that while I'm up.

- Ah, hello.
- Hi, I'm Reverend Hill.

Hey, Reverend Hill, come on in.

Hi, reverend,
it's so good to see you.

- Good to see you.
- This is my brother, Joey.

- Joey, Joey, nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you too.

How come I don't
never see you in church?

Uh, well, sir, I'm a musician
and I'm often on the road.

Yeah, not often enough.

Well, actually, I'm here
to see your father Andrew.

I'll go get him.

- Well, have a seat, reverend.
- Well, thank you.

Oh, Roc, you'll be happy to know

that once again you made
a difference in our paper drive.

Beat the pants
off Third Street Ecumenical.

Ha-ha, well, you know I had an
advantage being a professional.

- Ha ha ha.
- Oh, hey, reverend.

- Andrew.
- You're early for our game.

Hey, I like that.

This could be the start
of a beautiful relationship.

Well, Andrew, I'm sorry to say,
I've got to cancel.

I hope this doesn't interfere
with that relationship.

Oh, don't tell me
you've got a woman too.

Yes... but I've also got a sick
parishioner in the hospital.

Then I've gotta
preside over a funeral.

Oh, well, I guess duty calls.

So, Joey, you were saying
that you're a musician, huh?

Uh, uh-huh.

Well, you know,
I dabble a little bit myself.

Maybe we could get
together sometime and jam.

Huh, well, sure, Mr. Preacher,
we could do that.

What kind of instrument
do you play?

- Uh, Autoharp.
- I don't think so.

You know, that's the same
reaction I get from kids

every time I try to teach
them to play that thing.

Well, maybe that's because

that instrument doesn't
interest them, sir.

Kids don't hear a lot of songs
on the radio for the autoharp.

They hear drums, guitars,
trumpets, you know?

Cool instruments.

I remember the first time
I heard Miles Davis

when I was a kid.

Blew me away,
Jack, uh, reverend.

Well, you know, reverend,
wouldn't it be great

to find someone
with that attitude?

To teach some of the kids
in the community?

Yes, it would.

Well, that might be the answer
to the reverend's problem.

Good luck.

- I was talking about you, Joey.
- Yeah, I know, Roc.

Come on, Joey. Now, Reverend
Hill has a problem here.

And you've got a trumpet.

Now God knows, Joey,
you got time on your hands.

I don't know, Roc, if
your brother's not interested--

Oh, no, he's interested.
He's real interested.

Aren't you, Joey?

No, Roc, I'm not.

Hey, now, come on, Joey.

You're always talking
about you're a musician.

Now you have an opportunity to
share something that you enjoy.

And you can share
something with me too.

- What's that?
- The money you make.

I don't think so. Listen,
Roc, you don't understand.

See, if you're
a serious musician

and you teach, it undermines
the integrity of your craft.

Reverend, it's like,
it's like selling out.

For instance,
you're a garbageman, right?

- 'Yeah.'
- If you would...

Never mind. Uh...

Reverend, look, I'd love to do
something to help the community

but, uh, I don't think
teaching is my game.

How do you know
if you haven't tried?

I mean, it won't be like
working. You love music.

And what could be more
rewarding than teaching kids?

- Maybe this isn't a good idea.
- Yeah.

Reverend, I-I-I know
what you're getting at.

I mean, Joey's a musician
and they have... reputations.

But I'm vouching
for him right now.

And I think he'll
really do a good job.

- He'll do it. He'll do it.
- Thank you, Joey.

Thank you.
Thank you.

Oh, and remember

the generosities that
we show in time and talent

here on Earth... are
rewarded tenfold in heaven.

Ten to one odds, Joey.
You can't beat it.

Roc, you know the old saying

"Those who can, do,
those who can't, teach."

Mm-hmm. But those who live
here for free, teach trumpet.

Oh, yeah, I always forget
that part of the ol' saying.

Get to your room.

Alright, James

first thing you gotta learn how
to do is hold your instrument.

Righto.

Uh, no, James. You gotta
treat it special, okay?

You gotta hold your horn

like you're holding a woman.

Ha ha, okay.

Uh.

Okay, uh, just relax,
James. It's just a trumpet.

Uh, let's move on.

Now, we're gonna
build up that embouchure.

- My what?
- Your embouchure, your lip.

Now take your mouthpiece...

...and just practice
doin' this for a while.

Okay, you work on doing
that for a little while.

Good, James, good.

Hey! Alright, James!

Okay, that's
enough for today.

Alright, cool.

This wasn't as bad as
I thought it would be.

Well, James, a good teacher
can make anything interesting.

Alright, James,
I'll see next week, okay?

- Alright.
- Alright, you take care now.

Be careful goin' home, okay?

And remember, James,
practice, practice.

- Hey, Joey.
- Hey, Roc.

So, how was your first lesson?

Roc, music is
a universal language.

Yeah, right. Huh.

How about taking me
to Charlaine's for a beer?

No can do, Roc. I got
a five o'clock appointment.

Five o'clock?
Hey, it's only, um...

Man, this damn watch, man.

Well, uh, what did you
expect from a Folex?

Hey, my man, Wilton's got more
if you don't like that one.

Let me get that. Who's at
my door. I don't know...

- Hi.
- Hi.

Are you, uh-h-h...

...Simone?

No, I'm Diedre.

Whoops, that's
the wrong book. Ha ha.

Diedre, I'm Professor Emerson.

Here, you can set
you horn right here.

- And let me take your jacket.
- Sure.

Alright, now, Diedre

before we get started, we need
to fill out a student profile.

Have you had any professional
music lessons before?

No, I haven't.

Good, then we
can get started.

- Hey, Mr. Emerson.
- Yes?

When will I learn
the "Night Train?"

Oh, Lord. Uh, first things
first, Diedre, okay?

First, you gotta learn how to
hold your instrument, alright?

Now, see, you gotta hold your
horn just like you hold a wom...

...uh, a doll.

Alright, Diedre, let's review
what I taught you today about

tempo andante.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Tempo andante goes off
at eight to one, right?

You bet five dollars
and tempo andante wins.

How much money do you win?

Well, that's easy,
Mr. Emerson. 45 bucks.

- Forty, plus my original five.
- Very good.

But I still don't understand

what this has to do
with learning the trumpet.

Well, Diedre, it's the trumpet
that starts the race.

Oh, yeah.

Okay, I'll see you next week.

Well, uh,
shouldn't I practice?

Uh, practice?
Where do you live?

- Over at Montgomery.
- Montgomery.

- How far away is that?
- About ten blocks.

Knock yourself out...

Hey, pop. Hey, honey.

Oh, Joey's teaching another
one of his classes, huh?

Boy, my horn on my
truck sounds better.

What a day I had.

I hit a pothole, busted an axle

had to call for
backup to help me.

Then I try to be nice guy,
so I pick up some

old rusty lawn furniture, huh!

When I get back to the garage,
Sander reads me the riot act.

How was I supposed to
know it was sculpture?

Had to take it back
and personally apologize.

By the time I got back

I missed my ride.

Had to walk home!

Hi, honey.

Hi, son. How was your day?

Oh, fine, pop, fine.

Oh, gosh, how does he do it?

He's been listenin'
to that stuff all day.

Well, if you love music, I guess
you can tune out the bad notes.

Oh, now, wait a minute, now
maybe Joey's found his niche.

Some people just have
a knack for teaching.

You know, I-I-I don't
wanna pat myself on the back

for pushing him
to do this.

Maybe this will be something
that Joey will stick with.

Hmm, if he does, I'm movin'.

Hey, well, now come on, pop.

Now, come on, at least
he's doin' somethin'

not just sittin'
on his butt all day.

I know I had to give him a push.
I say good for Joey.

Sharin' his gift of music,
I think it's wonderful.

Hey, i-i-is, anybody
usin' those earplugs?

How do I sound?

Man, you sound just
like Miles Davis.

- Really?
- Yeah, here, listen.

- Hey, Joey.
- Hey, Roc.

You mind if I sit in
and watch the maestro at work?

Sure, I don't mind.

Uh, who died
and made you the maestro?

Roc, we'd love to,
but James has just

finished his
lesson for the day.

Uh, James,
don't you remember telling me

you had to leave early
for a dentist appointment?

- What dentist appointment?
- James, you want one?

Right, uh...

...bad bicuspid.

Okay, see you later, James.

Uh, Roc, uh, buddy, I'm sorry

you missed it, man,
that kid's a natural.

- Well, I can tell he likes you.
- I sweat him pretty tough.

Yeah, well, sometimes,
Joey, you got to.

You know, teaching...

I'll get that.

- Hey.
- Hey, Reverend Hill.

- How you doin'?
- What brings you here?

I came to deliver
some wonderful news.

Good, the parents went
for that price hike?

No, I haven't
mentioned that yet.

Sunday's the dedication of our
newly remodeled church hall.

We're havin' a little
concert to celebrate.

I was hoping your students
could perform.

Oh, that's a great idea.

I'm sure Joey would love
to have them play at the church.

I don't know. They've only
been at it for a short while.

I'm sure it'll be great.

The parents are so
lookin' forward to this.

I hate to disappoint 'em,
reverend

but I'm gonna have to say no.

Aw, no, Joey, it'll be fine.

You see, you see, my brother
is somewhat of a perfectionist.

You are really proud

of your younger brother,
aren't you, Roc?

I sure am, prouder
than I've ever been.

But, I've gotta admit

I didn't think he
could do it. Muah!

- Did you just kiss me, Roc?
- Ah, nah, nah.

Okay, I guess I'll see
you guys on Sunday.

Okay, reverend,
I'll see you on Sunday.

Okay, reverend.

You just kissed me,
didn't you, Roc?

Hey, no, Joey,
I'm proud of you.

I can't wait for
that recital for you

to show off
the fruits of your labor.

That fruit is rotten, Roc.

♪ Whoa whoa whoa oh oh-h-h ♪

He didn't even finish
in the money, huh?

Yeah, okay. Yeah, yeah,
alright, alright.

- Damn.
- Oh, what's the matter, son?

I gotta pay some people
back some money.

And I certainly
don't have it now.

Boy, that's the last time
I'd take a tip

on a horse from
a 12-year-old girl.

Well, it's a good thing
you got those music lessons

bringin' in some quick cash.

Yeah, thank heaven
for that. Yeah, pop.

Hmm.

What you doin' there, daddy?

Oh, this is my domino
homage to Malcolm X.

- Oh-h-h.
- You wanna see it again?

It only takes an hour
to set them back up.

No, daddy, I gotta get
ready to go to church.

- Daddy.
- Uh-huh.

Don't you think it's about
time that you called Clarence

and told him how you feel?

Oh, hell no, and give him
the satisfaction of knowin'

that I miss him?

He's already got
a swell head as it is.

- Alright, it's your life.
- Yeah.

Daddy, could you
get that, please?

Yeah, it'll give me
somethin' to do.

I hope it's a Jehovah Witness.

That should eat up
a couple of hours of my day.

Are you Andrew Emerson?

Yes. Who are you?

I'm Hermia Wilson, Clarence's
friend. I came to talk to you.

Yeah, you stole
my domino partner.

Now, what do you need?
The dominos?

I know Clarence
misses you terribly.

He won't admit it.
That's why I'm here.

Look, Clarence and I have
been friends for a lotta years.

If he thinks that by sendin'
you over here is gonna get me

to change my mind about
the way he mistreated me

and brushed me aside, well,
he's got another thing comin'.

And another thing.

You've got some of
the most gorgeous eyes.

Thank you.

Clarence never mentioned
you were so charming and...

...and handsome.

Anyway, uh, Clarence
is ready to make up.

- Really?
- Hmm.

Who wants to make up
with a lonely old man

when he can make out
with a sweet thing like you?

I know, that's right.

What about Clarence?

Clarence who?

I like your style, lady.

Thank you, Tanya!
That was lovely!

Now, for our last
performance of the evening

we have Mr. Joey Emerson
and his trumpet students.

Hey, that's my brother!
That's my brother!

Alright, Joey!
Go get 'em, Joey.

Rock the house!

Alright.

Uh, ladies and gentlemen

parents, I'd just like to say
that the young people behind me

have worked very hard on this

lovely piece of music
that you're about to hear.

And, uh, I hope you're
as proud of them as I am.

If there's a God in heaven.

Alright, kids.

A-one...

...two...

...y'all know what to do.

Well, we're all grateful to
Mr. Emerson and his students

and all our performants
who were so delightful tonight.

Thank you.

If you like, we have
refreshments in the backroom.

Alright, alright.

Thank you, my man.
Beautiful, beautiful.

James, my man, thank you.
Diedre, thank you very much.

Man, thank you very much.
Alright, ha ha ha.

Yeah, nice.

So, sis, Roc,
what'd you think?

I don't think you taught
those kids a note of music!

Yes, I did. I taught 'em two
notes. Didn't you listen?

Roc, I'm gonna wait
for you outside

'cause, see, I don't
even wanna hear it.

'Joey..'

...I think this is the lowest
thing you've ever done.

- Roc--
- Excuse me, Mr. Emerson.

- Yeah.
- Sam Cummings.

- James' father.
- Okay, here comes, Joey.

I just had to tell
you that my boy...

...was great!

Too bad about those other kids.

Yeah, well, they can't
all have James' talent.

- Right.
- Alright.

Thank you very much, sir.
James, take care of yourself.

I don't believe this.
He shook your hand!

Yeah, he waltzed
right up to me.

Mr. Emerson.

- Yes, hi.
- I'm Diedre's mama.

- Hi, Diedre's mama.
- Listen, thank you.

My baby made me so proud.

You know, I'm sure you
wanted to give her a solo.

But I know those other
kids would've gotten upset.

Well, I'm always available

for private lessons
for students of any age.

- Oh, oh, okay.
- Okay.

Bye.

Alright.

So... what were you
sayin' about this bein'

the lowest thing
I've ever done, Roc?

Those parents
actually thanked you!

Come on, Roc,
have you ever known a parent

to think their child
wasn't the greatest.

- And you knew that.
- No, I was bettin' on it.

Well, I was prayin' for it.
Good thing we're in a church.

- Joey, you're real piece of--
- Roc, listen.

Before you get down on me,
in the church, remember now

I didn't wanna have nothin' to
do with this in the first place.

The teaching is not my gig.

You pushed me into this, right?
You got me in trouble.

And then I came through of
course, and saved both our skin.

What are you talkin' about?

I made it look like
I taught those kids the trumpet.

I made you look good
for recommending me.

You had those kids do exactly
what you do in life, fake it!

Alright, Roc, okay, I did
wrong by your standards, okay?

I took the parents' money, I
didn't teach the kids anything.

But I don't think that's why
you're mad

I think you mad
'cause I got away with it.

No, Joey! I'm-I'm mad because
you think it's okay, you know?

See, you think it's
fine to go through life

cuttin' corners and beatin'
people outta their money.

- Roc--
- But you know somethin'?

You gonna pay those
parents back every dollar

or else you'll be
out on the street!

- What?
- Now, d-d-d.. You...

- I ain't playin' now.
- Alright.

I'm hopin' I'm around the day
it all blows up in your face.

Look, Roc,
I just play the odds.

One of these days the odds
are gonna run out on you.

Yeah, well, you'd-you'd think
they would, wouldn't you, Roc?

- They don't and they haven't.
- Mark my words, Joey.

One of these days
you're gonna get it.

Well, Roc, someday
you might be right.

Joey, somethin'...

- Excuse me.
- Yes.

Uh, Mr. Emerson

about those private lessons...

Uh, someday, Roc,
but not today.
