[smooth music]

Yeah, that almost-- That's gonna be really--

-It's really nice. -Oh, yeah, ah.

-Whoo! -So, where would you like

-for me to put these? -Oh, you can just sit them

right here on the table.

-That'd be fine. -Right there.

Very nice, very nice. Thank you.

Miss Anastasia's gonna love those.

Yes, she is. Thank you, handsome.

-Yes. -Ha, ha!

So, why is it so quiet in here?

Quiet in here? It ain't never quiet in here.

-Really? -[Cora] Right.

It looks quiet now.

Well, looks can be deceiving, sir.

[both chuckling]

[Vinny] No, Efe! Just let it go, man!

But that is very inconsiderate of you.

Man... [laughs] ...you're talking crazy.

How is me being outside smoking being inconsiderate of you?

It ain't got nothin' to do with you.

It does when you're smoking it outside of my window!

Why don't you just close your damn window?

I am not going to close my window, you, you...

-rhinoceros! -[laughs]

How come you always call me African animal names, man?

Well, it is the best that I have

because I don't like to say bad words.

See what I tell you? What's going on with you two?

Ms. Cora, Vinny insists on smoking

those illegal substances outside of my room.

-What? -Illegal substance?

They are very illegal in this state.

Man, you are such a square.

I cannot believe you snitch on me to Ms. Cora.

You know what? Just wait. Just wait.

-Just wait. -Is that a threat?

Oh, man, you can take it any way you want to, partner!

Okay, Vinny, don't threaten him.

Oh, who cares about his empty threats?

[Vinny] I'm sick of him.

Oh, those are very nice flowers.

-They are, aren't they? -Who are they for?

-They're for Miss Anastasia. -Oh, what is the occasion?

Oh, well, her friend passed away.

She was sad, so we got her some flowers.

That is right, yes.

Speaking of, Vinny, you know Montey died, right?

-Oh, my goodness, for real? -Yep.

-Montey Lanier passed away? -Yes.

Oh, man, that's a shock, man.

I was supposed to see him

next month at the tailgate party, man.

That's right. I forgot about that.

You guys were old classmates.

Oh, man, I messed up, man.

How did he die?

He'd been sick for a while, man.

I think it was complications brought on by diabetes.

Oh, my goodness, man. I'm so sad.

I can't believe it.

Well, I'm sorry to hear about your friend, Vinny.

I know. I'm sorry, too.

I'm also sorry, Vinny.

Please let me know if there's anything I can do.

Well, yeah, there's, there's something you can do.

Number one, you can stop fussing at me

because I'ma really need a blunt now.

I hope your window's closed. That's for damn sure.

-Oh, my goodness. -He is impossible.

[chuckling] Yes, he is.

-Cora, you ready to go? -Oh, yes, yes.

Okay, sure. Let me get my stuff.

-[Lenny] Mm-hmm. -Oh, my.

Oh, this is Delores, Gwen's sister.

Gwen's sister? I didn't know Gwen had a sister.

You're always talking about Gwen, though.

Yeah, yeah. Well, hold on, hold on.

Hey, hey. Yes, I can.

Uh-huh. What?

Tell me that's not so.

What?

But she, she didn't tell me anything. How?

I mean, oh, my...

[sobbing] Oh, my. Yes.

I understand.

Okay, bye-bye.

Cora, are you okay? What's wrong?

My friend Gwen died.

-No. Gwen? -Yes.

You was just with her last week, right?

Yes, I was. I'm sorry.

-I am so sorry, Cora. -I need a, I need a minute.

[sobbing] Oh, my God! Oh!

[music]

Gwen was a dear friend of Cora's.

[Efe] Yes.

I've heard Miss Cora talk of her often.

Yeah, and I am so sad for Cora.

-Yeah. -Hi, Mr. Lenny.

Did I hear you say you were sad?

Well, yeah. I'm sad for Cora.

What's going on with Cora?

-Her friend Gwen passed away. -Oh, no.

The one she went to school with?

Yeah, they've known each other for years.

Oh, no. I know what she's going through.

I just lost my dear friend Kee Kee.

Keilondra Patterson. Oh, she was fabulous.

I'm sorry to hear that, Miss Anastasia.

Cora told me you lost someone, so she brought you some flowers.

These are for me?

Yes, they are.

Cora is so sweet.

-[Lenny] Yes, she is. -These are beautiful.

Oh, here, Anastasia, let me help you.

Thank you, Efe.

Cora, are you okay?

I'm just a little heartbroken.

I would talk to my friend Gwen every day,

with her crazy self.

You know, would you mind driving me over there?

Of course not.

That's not a definite no on dinner, okay?

I just, I just want to go check on Miss Dee Dee.

Cora, I understand. It's fine.

Lenny, I really appreciate you.

I appreciate you as well, Cora.

You know, the funny thing is, I feel like I've known you

for so long already.

You know what? I feel the same.

But what does that mean?

Well, that means

that I am supposed to be here with you, supporting you, Cora.

I feel that.

I am so sorry you're having such a sad day.

Me too. [chuckles]

My friend Gwen was one of my biggest cheerleaders,

especially when it came to going to dinner with you.

[Lenny laughs]

Well, I will forever be grateful to her for that now.

Right. Well, I don't feel like I want

to just have a rain check for our dinner date.

How about we go check on Miss Dee Dee for a little while

and maybe push our reservation back for a hour or so?

Sure. I can change the reservation,

but I understand if you need to be there for your friend.

I'll, I'll be there for the family. I will.

I just... You know what?

I can just hear my friend Gwen right now clear in my head.

[Lenny chuckles]

So, what's she saying?

You know what?

She'll be saying, "Don't be no fool, Cora!

"I'm goin' on to glory. You stay there, girl.

You better go to dinner with that man."

Hey. You know she has a point, right?

Yeah.

I think we should enjoy every moment of this life we can.

That is so true. So true.

-All right. You ready? -Let's go.

[Cora] Ah.

[music]

Yup. Huh. Boom! Hold on.

Watch this shot. Watch this shot.

Boooooooom!!!

Hey, I just want to say we got a high of two viewers today.

-Shout out to my mom. -Smells like feet in here.

And no, that's just a bag of corn chips.

-It's open over there. -I don't see any corn chips.

It's in a, it's in a drawer. Why are you snooping?

Wow, you've, uh...

really done something with the place.

Philip, you're really starting to worry me.

Don't care. Get out of my room.

Okay, you know this used to be half my room, right?

Not anymore. Leave.

Philip, you're really starting to become a gamer.

You need to cut back or else

you're gonna become socially weird.

Or should I say weirder?

Uh, yeah, yeah. Sorry, y'all.

Yeah, bro. That's, that's my sister.

Bro, you think she hot, bro? Do you...

[Philip retches]

Bro, I'm with... [retches]

Shut up, one of your gamer friends thinks I'm hot?

[gulps, clears throat]

Yeah, I'm livestreaming right now, so they can see.

Don't do that. Yeah.

Wait, what does he look like?

Show me his profile.

[Philip] Now click on it.

Wait, Philip, he's hot.

Hey, gamer friend. Hey.

You're such a loser, bro.

Okay, I need to talk to you. Turn off the game.

Oh, fine!

All right, hold on, y'all. I'll be right back.

-You're muted? -[exasperated sigh]

-What, Sandra? -Okay.

So...

Eddie and Shameka are throwing a Halloween party this year.

Ooh-hoo-hoo! No way!

No, no, no. The last one was epic.

I know.

And this year, their dad is renting out

Fright Terror World for the party.

-The haunted house? -[Sandra] Mm-hmm.

Wait, wait, wait. So the Halloween party

-is in the haunted house? -Mm-hmm. It is.

Ooh, now that's gonna be fire.

Wait, so it sounds like you wanna go.

Of course I'm going.

Uh, not so fast.

[Philip] What?

Okay, there is one catch.

-Just, like, really small. -What is it? What is it?

So you have to dress up.

Like in a costume?

-Yes, like in a costume, idiot. -No way.

What? Why?

-What's wrong with that? -That's not me.

What do you mean that's not you?

You used to love to dress up for Halloween.

-When I was six. -Oh, okay. I'm sorry.

I forgot that you're too cool now.

-Well, yeah. -Philip, you're ridiculous.

It's weird, 'cause it's like, I want to dress up for Halloween,

but then it's...

Okay, you and your little crew are too cool for everything.

I'm telling you, you're gonna miss out always being so cool.

Damn! I really want to go, too.

So just make a costume.

Go as that, that comic book hero you like.

Are you talking about Voltron??!!

He's not in comic books.

He's a hero on a gaming system.

I think they're making a movie about him, too.

Yeah, it comes out next summer. And I will be there early,

because the matinee prices are cheaper.

Okay, so go asVoltron!!!

Nah, I'm good.

-It's not my thing, Sandra. -What?

-You make no sense. -What?

It's like, you don't do

your online makeup show the way you want to.

Well, that's because I don't like talking online like that.

I'm nervous. I get self-conscious.

What? But you want to.

Well, that's completely different.

Nope. Not different. The same.

We're both not doing stuff that we want to do.

So shut up and get out.

[scoffs]

Yo, Chad, I'm back.

Oh, my gosh. What?

-Oh, my... -[Sandra] Bye, loser.

Chad, Chad, she lucky she left when she did,

'cause it's really finna to get like that.

It was about to be... Put 'em up! Put 'em up!

[music]

-[laughing] Oh, good God! -Not the box on the door.

-[Reggie laughs] -They got him!

-These people, look at this. -Ahhh...

[Efe] They got him!

-Oh. -Hey, Miss Cora.

-Hey, guys. -How was the funeral?

Very sad.

Oh, funerals can be rough.

Yeah, for some people.

-Were they not rough for you? -Usually.

I put things in perspective and, you know,

death is a part of life and I'm usually okay.

Yeah, we all try and do that, but it's...

-Sometimes it affects you. -Mm-hmm.

-Like today. -Oh, I'm so sorry.

You know, she was my dear friend and I'm gonna really miss her.

Yes. Well, hold on to her memories.

This way, she never truly leaves you.

That's true. So true.

I just, I just wish I could talk to her, too.

I just, you know, I know Miss Anastasia's friend

had a eulogy today, too, right?

Yes. She's not back yet.

Ah, speak of the angel.

-Hey, everybody. -[Cora] Hey, Miss Anastasia.

Are you okay?

I'm okay. I'm just tired.

It was a long funeral?

No, I mean, I'm...

I'm just tired of going to funerals.

Me, too. It just...

Just reminds you so much of...

-Death. -Yes.

You know the hardest part of getting old?

What's that?

Losing friend after friend after friend.

It's lonely.

I feel like I'm at a funeral every other day.

I miss my friends.

I'm tired, Cora. [sobs]

-Miss Anastasia. -I'm so tired.

I can't do it anymore.

[somber music]

-[sobbing] I'm sorry. -I'm so sorry.

[music]

Just let it out, Miss Anastasia.

It's okay. Come on.

-How do people deal with this? -Just sit down right here.

You know, I think it's with age.

Old folks just don't talk about it with us.

Yeah, the same in my culture.

Who do you talk to?

Well, hopefully you have family.

Well, some of us don't have any family.

Or most of our family are gone.

Well, how about you just talk to whoever's here?

Which is why you have to enjoy the people that you love

-every day while they are here. -That is so true, Efe.

It's a shame, but a lot of us spend a lot of time

being mad at those while we're here.

Wasted time.

Well, I'm gonna take this moment right here

to tell all of you that I love you very much.

We love you, too.

And I love all of you as well.

Well, let me jump on the love fest.

I love you guys so much.

[door shuts] [Vinny grumbles]

Hey, everybody.

[Others] Hey.

I see you're wearing a funeral suit as well.

Did you, did you attend a funeral today, too?

Yeah, remember I told you my friend Montey died, man?

Oh.

Lenny mentioned that to me earlier.

Yeah, Montey was a good man.

-You okay, Vinny? -I'm okay.

I mean, what you gonna do? Death is a part of life.

That it is.

So, let me...

Let me ask everybody a question.

What's your question, Efe?

What is it about death that scares everyone the most?

-[Reggie] Hmm... -I got it.

-For me, it's dying alone. -[Vinny] Whoa, that's true.

Yeah, that would be for me as well.

-What about you, Efe? -Suffering.

Yeah. I'm afraid of suffering.

I don't want to suffer before I die.

Yeah, that's probably my fear as well.

Uh, Vinny, what about you?

-Well, I have two. -[Cora] Two?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

My first one is, uh, not being able to get it up.

-That's what scares me to death. -What?!

[Reggie] Oh, my God...

And the second one is running out of weed to roll.

I swear, Vinny, you never cease to amaze me.

[Reggie] I know.

Out of all the things you could be afraid of.

-[Cora] Right. -Hey, you guys.

-Hey. -[Vinny] Hey, everybody.

Hey. Everybody okay?

[Vinny] Yeah, we good.

Did you all just come from a funeral?

-Yes, we did. -Who was it?

You all knew the same person?

No, it was three different people.

Three different funerals for three different people.

Wow, that's a creepy coincidence.

-It's not a coincidence. -Well, it sounds like one.

-Three people. -That's 'cause you're young.

That's right. See, Reggie's right.

You get old, your friends get old, and then they start to die.

Well, that's sad.

It is, but that's life.

Well, we're sorry you guys lost some people.

-Mm-hmm. -Thank you, Philip.

-That was so sweet. -[Vinny] Yeah.

Miss Cora, we didn't get your answer,

-the answer to the question. -[Vinny] What's yours?

-What's the question? -Oh, uh, well,

asking what scares us the most about death?

Nah, this is too dark of a conversation for me.

[all chuckling]

You leaving too, Sandra?

No, I want to hear your answer, Miss Cora.

Well, what scares me the most about death

is being on my deathbed and having regret.

-[Efe] Ooh. -[Vinny] Ooh, yeah.

I just don't want to have any regret.

-I like that. -Yeah.

Also, I pray and hope that, you know, when I die,

that I did everything that my heart's desire.

Wow.

And when I talk to God, I want to say,

"I did and used everything that you gave me."

That's wonderful, Miss Cora.

[music]

Sandra, what?

I just learned something from the old folks.

Good for you. Now leave.

We should go to the Halloween party.

But didn't you say we'd have to dress up?

Yeah, we should go. And we should go in costume.

I already told you I'm not doing that.

But don't you want to dress up?

Maybe, but it's not me.

Philip, you're letting other people dictate

what makes you happy.

-Look, I have a image to keep. -To hell with your image!

No. Hah!

I have a level of drip that you will never understand, son.

Philip, you have no drip.

You can't even say that with a straight face.

No, really, listen. This is important.

I wish you would have been there when the elders were speaking.

Nope. They're an absolute buzzkill.

No, they actually have some wisdom.

You know, you would do well to listen sometimes.

I already know what they're gonna say.

[old man voice] Oh, work hard and don't have fun.

Go to school and don't have fun.

Oh, oh, wake up early.

And did I mention don't have fun?

-Ah! My back. My knee! -No.

Miss Cora was just saying that her biggest fear before dying

was not having fun.

They're talking about doing the things that make you happy

-before it's too late. -Mm.

Philip, we're young. We should be enjoying our lives.

Okay, Sandra. Nice talk.

[Philip sighs]

Okay, will you go to the Halloween party as Voltron

if I help you with your costume?

[sucks teeth]

I don't know.

But you said yourself it's gonna be an epic party.

Hm! It is.

So why would you miss it?

[Philip sighs]

I do want to go.

Great! We're going.

[sighs] [door shuts]

Do we have to watch this, Vinny?

-I love this show. -You watch this every time.

I know. I love it.

-I'm sick of this. -Yes.

Oh, my God.

Hey, hey, hey! What y'all doing?

What else? What else?

Watching the same boring programs we always watch.

And the same game show.

And after that, the same entertainment gossip show.

Followed by the same crime show where the husband kills his wife

and the police department take months to solve the crime.

And then we warm up some milk and go to bed.

[Vinny laughs]

We need some more excitement in our lives.

You know, Miss Cora, I get a lot of excitement

when I go down to the booty butt naked club.

I know that gets boring too sometimes.

Yeah, you're right.

I was telling Earl the other day,

"You ought to get some new women up in here, man."

No, you need to do something out of the norm.

You still got some life to live.

Cora's right.

You know, ever since I went back to school,

I realized that you have to enjoy every day.

-Right. -Yeah.

What do you want us to do, Cora? We're old.

First, stop saying that we're old.

She is old.

You know, no, no, y'all, we gotta...

We gotta do something. I got a idea.

How about we... We need to make bucket lists.

-Bucket lists? -[Cora] Yes.

People who make those never do any of the things on them.

You know what? We're gonna do our bucket lists

while we on this earth,

and we're gonna enjoy everything we put on there.

Bucket lists take some money and some connection.

Ah, no, no. We're smart people, now.

I'm sure we can come up with things to help us

accomplish the things on our list.

-Yes! -It might be fun.

-I'm game. -[Vinny] You know what?

As long as my list can be nasty, then I'll, I'll participate.

If nasty will make you happy, then please be nasty.

[laughter]

You can put down whatever you want on your list, okay?

So let's just get started. Here you go.

-All right. -All right.

-All right. -[indistinct chatter]

All right! There you go.

Take a pen, take a pen. Take a...

All right. There you go.

There you go. Y'all ready?

Let's get started.

All right.

Oh, my God! Hurry up!

-Are you gonna play? -Let me just, don't rush me now.

-Don't rush me. -You know what?

Study long, you study wrong!

Tennis shoe! Oh, oh!

Ooh, look at that! Y'all don't know how to play.

-[Vinny] Oh, my God. -No, man.

I'm here to play today. I'm here to stay!

[Efe & Vinny] [indistinct conversation]

-I've never seen her like that. -Good God.

-Hey, you guys! -[all exclaiming]

-[Vinny] Oh! -[Reggie] All right, now.

I know. I'm so excited.

Well, you got Philip to live a little.

I did. Thanks to all your advice.

Oh, he's going to a costume party.

-Your costume is great, Sandra. -Thank you, Miss Anastasia.

So what brought that on?

-It was your words, Miss Cora. -[Cora] Oh...

Philip and I realized how lucky we are to be so young.

We just want to do things that make us happy.

Oh, that's good.

That is the best lesson to learn.

All right, guys.

So now I present to you... [shouting] Voltron!!!

[cheers and applause]

-Yes, sir. Yes, sir. -[Anastasia] Bravo.

I'm off to go fight crime.

[exclaiming, laughter]

-All right, bye, guys. -Bye! Have fun!
