(lively music)

- [Man] All right,
folks, let's clear.

Here we go.

- [Man 2] Five, four, three

two...

- It's America This Morning.

I'm Jay, this is my girl Candi,

and of course, everybody knows

I'm a animal lover.

- Yes, we do know that, Jay.

That's because you're an animal.

- Well, you're exactly right,

but actually I heard about
this town in Florida,

where they're having
a dog marathon.

- You're kidding?

- No, I'm not kidding.

- All right, so
that's 26.2 miles

of loud, dog barking
and dog fighting,

and who exactly is
gonna clean up the poop

after this is all said and done?

- Certainly not me.

(laughs)

But listen, it's
for charity though.

It's a good thing.

- Oh really?

And what charity would that be?

The dumb ideas foundation?

- Folks, my girl, Candy,

I mean, she's a cat lover.

She's a hater.

Okay.

- Oh, I'm a hater, am I?

- Yes, you are.

- All right.

Well viewers, we'd love
to hear what you think

about this brilliant idea,

so please e-mail us, tweet us,

and we will weigh
in on this subject

at the end of the show.

Coming up next

we have a brilliant
holistic doctor

who says that he has proof

that a rare mushroom
can cure cancer.

We'll be right back.

- [Man] And we're clear.

- Can somebody please explain
to me why this is freezing?

Jay.

- [Jay] Yes?

- After eight years
of working together,

why would you refer
to me as a cat person

when you know I can't
stand animals of any kind?

- It was for the segment.

Okay?

You gonna be okay?

- Well, I just think
it's a big deal

to falsely represent someone.

- Here we go.

- You know what?

In the future, would
you please just refrain

from referring to
me as a dog person

or a cat person?

Or even a goldfish person,

because that's now who I am.

- All right, whatever.

All right.

Are you gonna get
over it though?

- Yes, I'm fine.

- Yeah, whatever.

- [Candy] Where's my coffee?

- Can somebody get her
some coffee, please?

Thank you.

- [Woman] It's right there.

- [Jay] Oh boy.

- [Man] All right,
folks, here we go.

- Why we showing
something stupid?

- It doesn't make sense.

- Welcome back to
America This Morning.

Our next guest...

Now Friday is the
governor's ball.

We have not RSVPd for that,

so are we a go

or do you know
what we are doing?

- Okay, wait a minute.

It's this Friday?

- Yes.

- We need to cancel.

I have other plans.

- You wanna cancel
the governor's ball?

- Yes, we need to cancel.

Tell him I came
down with something.

- Even though you
were just on the air

looking perfectly healthy?

- Tell him it happened
after the show.

- Got it.

- Also, one more thing.

- [Woman] Yes?

- Yesterday, I saw
some crumbs on my desk.

I don't know if they
were muffin crumbs,

or something like that,

but are you trying
to ruin my career?

- Candy, I didn't mean
to bring pastries around.

I'm...

- We have talked about
this several times.

I'm on a very strict diet
for the next 90 days,

which means that I can't
be around any sweets

of any kind,

because even the smell of
sweets is total mayhem for me,

and I don't wanna
be in chat rooms,

and on social media where
people are talking about

how I've just become
this big fat cow,

and they picture of me in
the tabloids next to Shamu.

- Candy, it won't happen again.

- That's a relief.

Bounce.

Bye.

Thank you.

- Muffin crumbs?

Really?

Don't you think you're
overreacting just a bit, Candy?

- Louis, as a manager,

you of all people know how
vicious sometimes fans can be.

- That's your eighth
assistant this year.

- Well, what is your
point about that?

- [Louis] I guess
I have no point.

- [Woman] These just came in
from that F-A-N guy again.

- [Louis] That's the
third time this month.

- Anyone can sing in the sun,

but not many people know
how to dance in the rain.

- That's corny.

- Awe, that's very sweet.

This guy always says
the coolest things.

- He just might be a stalker.

- Oh relax.

I'm sure it's harmless.

I'm gonna put this
with my collection.

- Oh, Candy.

The reporter from
Woman Now magazine

is on set ready
for her interview.

- Louis?

Really?

How many of these things
do I have to do in a week?

- The book's not gonna
sell itself, Candy.

Just give 'em 15
minutes at least.

- Roger that.

Gina, get out.

Ugh.

I need to get my head straight
before this interview.

- You need to get a lot more
than that straight, Candy.

- [Reporter] You've won
numerous awards and honors

for hosting one of America's
favorite talk shows.

You have endorsement deals,

thousands of fans,

and now a new book.

Is there anything that
Candy Myers can't do?

- Um, you know it's funny.

I don't think of
myself as very special.

I just am blessed enough

to have the Lord give me
these beautiful assignments,

and I'm crazy enough to say yes.

- But, one might wager, Candy,

with your busy life,

and being a woman
of a certain age,

that maybe you've chosen
to sacrifice certain things

like marriage and a family.

- You know, I think
it's interesting, Nadia,

that you would equate

a marriage and
family as happiness,

and I'm sure that there
are millions of women

around the world

who would beg to differ.

Unfortunately, I don't have
the time to argue this point,

because I have to
reshoot this promo.

- [Nadia] No, I didn't
mean to offend you.

- Oh no, I know.

Thank you so much for your time.

Really.

Take care.

Good seeing you.

- [Nadia] Thank you.

(gentle music)

- You wanna tell
me what's wrong?

You haven't said a word
since the interview earlier.

- Did I ever tell
you I'm adopted?

- No.

No, I would have remembered

something like that.

- I was eight years
old when my parents,

the Myers, told me.

Do you know what it's like
to be eight years old,

and find out that your family

doesn't really belong to you?

- I can't imagine that.

No.

- Well, I suddenly felt like,

I don't know, a hamster that you

bring home from the pet store.

You know, you're
part of the family,

but you're not really
part of the family.

- They love you, Candy.

I mean, you and
I both know that.

- Yes, I know that, Louis,

but that doesn't change
how I feel, you know,

and when that
reporter today stated

so graciously that I didn't
have a family of my own,

I just started
thinking, you know.

If I do end up having
children of my own,

what am I gonna tell them?

I don't know anything.

I don't know about
their grandparents,

I don't know about
their ancestry,

their history, my
medical background.

I know nothing.

- Their grandparents
are your folks.

Evelyn and Earl Myers.

- Yeah, Louis,

and when my imaginary
kids turn eight years old,

I'll just tell them
that that was a lie too.

Never mind.

I'll be back.

(gentle music)

- [Louis] Red
onions as requested.

- [Candy] Oh, great.

Perfect.

- You need me to chop 'em up?

- No, but can you shred
that gouda for me please?

- Why not?

You want me to milk the
cow too while I'm at it?

Let me wash my hands.

I figured you'd be
done with this already.

- Yeah, well, my
family shows up for

the first time ever on time,

and I'm nowhere near done.

- [Louis] I see.

- Wow, what a treat.

Louis, it's so good to see you.

How are you?

- [Louis] Excellent,
and yourself?

- Blessed as ever.

Came to see if my
eldest needed any help.

- No, thank you, Mom.

I've got it.

- Mm-Hmm.

I see.

I guess you do with Louis here.

Isn't this your day off?

Don't you need a break from

my daughter's running
you around everywhere?

- Oh, no no no no no.

Correction.

He's the one always
running me around.

Book tours and interviews,

and assignments.

- I'm just dropping by to
make sure everything's okay.

- Checking in, huh?

Off the clock.

- [Candy] Mom.

- For no money.

- Mom.

- Are you sweet on
my Candy, Louis?

- Mom!

Stop.

You're always
reading into stuff.

Louis and I have a perfectly
wonderful working relationship.

He is my business manager.

That is it.

- Well, something's going on.

I mean, Robbie never checked in

on his day off.

- That's because
Robbie was an idiot.

Which is why I fired him.

- Don't say that.

He's family.

- Not my family.

- Come again.

- Nothing.

- Louis, since you're here,

why don't you stay
for lunch and join us?

- [Louis] Sure.

- No no no.

Mom, I have something
really important

I need to discuss.

It's a family issue.

- That's okay, Mrs. Myers.

I've got a few
errands to run anyway.

You need anything else?

- No, this was awesome.

Thank you.

Appreciate it.

- All right.

Good to see ya.

- You have a good day.

- [Louis] Take care.

- Okay.

- What?

- I think you hurt his feelings.

- Oh, please, Mom.

He gets paid enough
to get over it.

- Candace Ann Myers.

You're so bourgeois.

- I wonder where I got it from.

(laughs)

Oh my God.

- [Everybody] Amen.

- [Woman] Praise Jesus.

- Pass the butter, please.

- Oh.

Here you go, Daddy.

- Thanks Candy Ann.

- More sweet tea, please.

- Okay, coming right up.

- Uh-uh.

That's enough for her.

- All right.

Well, does anybody want
anything while I'm up?

You want some hot sauce, or,

I have peppers in the fridge,

or, John, do you want anything?

- No.

Fantastic.

- Why are you
waitressing, Candy?

- Yeah, stop worrying about us

and just eat.

- I just wanna make
sure everybody's okay.

- We're okay.

Sit.

- And uh,

where's all this nervous
energy coming from?

Huh?

Wait.

Are you seeing someone?

What's his name?

- I'm not seeing
anyone, Charmaine.

- Oh.

When are you gonna start?

- I don't know!

- Do not snap at your sister.

She's just concerned about you,

as are we all.

- I am fine, and
when I start seeing

the right someone

you all will be the first
five people to know.

- I think Louis is
perfect for you, honey.

I wish you would listen to me.

- [Candy] Mom!

- I said the same thing.

- He has love and adorable.

He's so cute.

- Can we, can we please stop

talking about my love life.

I have something...

I have something I wanna talk
to you guys about anyway.

- What's on your
mind, baby girl?

- I...

I think it's time
that I find them.

- Who's she lookin' for?

(gentle guitar music)

- Mom.

I didn't mean to make you upset.

- I'm not upset, Candace.

- Clearly.

- You have everything
going for you.

A great life, a fabulous career.

Money, fame.

Why now?

- I don't know.

I just feel like it's time.

- At 35 years old?

- Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't realize there was
a statue of limitations

for me to find my real...

- We are your real family!

From day one.

- Yeah, and then a
miracle happened.

- We never treated
you differently once
Charmaine was born,

and you know that.

- I do know that, Mom,

but I am different,

and I just, you
know, I wanna know

who I belong to.

- You belong to me.

To us.

(gentle music)

- Mom, I'm sorry.

Please don't cry.

- So we don't have
the same bloodline.

Who cares?

You're still my big sister.

- I will always be, Char.

Thank you.

- And it's obvious to me
whoever your real parents are,

they don't care about you.

- Charmaine.

- Mom, I'm sorry.

They had enough
time to find her.

I mean, duh, all they had
to do was turn on the TV,

and there she was
in plain sight.

It's obvious they
chose to stay away.

You don't get it.

They can never love
you the way we do.

- [Earl] Candace?

- Coming, Daddy.

(gentle music)

- Clearly you gave this a lot
of thought before you told us.

- Yes, sir.

- Yeah, well...

You're a grown woman.

Who am I to stop you?

- Daddy, none of this changes

how I feel about you and Mom.

- Well, I sure hope so.

Because I couldn't
bare to lose you.

- You won't.

- We'll do anything
we can for you,

Candy Ann.

(gentle, sentimental music)

- Thank you, Dad.

You're the best.

- You too.

- [Gina] Candy,
did you get my text

that the sighting was scheduled
to start a few minutes ago?

- [Candy] I did. I ignored it.

- Okay, not a problem.

Well, there's a huge
crowed out there,

which is good, even
if you're late.

Do you need anything
before you start?

- Yes.

Privacy.

Immediately.

Thank you.

- [Gina] Got it.

- Any calls?

- No calls from the agency.

- I don't understand, Lewis.

I mean, okay, there's no father

listed on my birth certificate,

but they found my
mother three weeks ago,

so why hasn't she contacted me?

- Maybe she's scared, Candy.

It's been over 30 years.

- Well, I'm not waiting
another 30 years.

I hired a private investigator.

Hopefully he'll
speed up the results.

- And I'm just now
hearing about this?

- I'm sorry, I didn't
realize I needed

to clear it with you, Lewis.

- Whereas your manager, no,

but as your friend I'd like
to be kept in the loop.

- Hey Candy, they're
really, really asking

very nicely that we start
the book signing right now.

- Fine.

On with the show, right?

There you are.

- [Woman] Thank you.

- You're welcome.

- [Man] Evening Ms. Myers.

- Good evening.

Are you um, fan?

- No, no I'm not.

My brother Freddy is.

Was.

He had a heart attack and
passed away a couple days ago.

- Oh, no.

I'm sorry to hear that.

His um, his cards and his
flowers they always made my day.

- Yeah, well he would have uh,

he would have liked that.

- Please, um, give your
family my condolences.

- Well you see, um,
that's just the thing.

You are my family.

Just ask the detective you sent.

- What?

- Who are you?

- I'm Abner Thomas Nelson.

My brother was
Frederick Andrew Nelson,

and uh...

He was your father, Candy.

(gentle music)

- No, I'm sorry,
but, that can't be.

- I'm sorry it had to
come to you like this.

Freddy was so looking
forward to meeting you.

- Excuse me.

- Um (clears throat)

Freddy's funeral is
in a couple of days

out in Manning.

My number's there.

He would surely love it if,

if you could attend.

- So you're not even
gonna consider it?

He's your biological
father, Candy.

This is your last chance
to see him above ground.

All right, you'll
regret it if you don't.

- I can't go.

Not by myself.

- Who says you have to?

As a friend.

Deal?

(gentle music)

Well, this is it.

You ready?

(gentle music)

- [Man] Yes.

Brother Freddy was a good man.

- [Woman] Yes, he was.

- He...

Oh my...

- My name is Candace Myers.

- Brother Freddy was

a very hard-working man,

who served the Lord
with joy in his heart.

He loved his family,

and didn't have an
enemy in the world.

Would help anyone
in need at any time,

and he continued to...

- [Woman] I just
wanna pay my respects.

Move out!

- [Man] Oh no.

- Oh sweet Freddy.

- Somebody come get her.

(gentle music)

Excuse...

Put that back!

- [Man] Let her have it.

- Hell no.

Not this time.

- Just give it to her.

Let everybody have
some peace for once.

- What?

Mm-Mmm.

Mm-Mmm.

You just might get it.

You don't wanna mess with me.

(dramatic music)

Crazy ding bat.

What kind of germ...

- [Man] All right, all right.

Everybody, everybody
settle down.

Look, this is home
going service.

Not TMZ.
- [Candy] What happened?

- [Man] Amen.

- Who is that crazy woman?

- You're mother.

- [Man] Now...

(dramatic music)

(engine accelerating)

(doorbell)

- [Abner] Hey.

Come on in.

Really good to...

To see you Ms. Myers.

- Oh Abner, please
call me Candy.

I think we can dispense
with the formalities.

Don't you?

- Well, Candy.

Let me introduce you to
some of your kin folks.

This here's cousin Jessie.

Cousin Sam.

Cousin Jamie, and Alisa.

- [Alisa] Hi, nice to meet you.

- Come on in here.

I want you to meet a
couple of fine boys.

This is uh, Trevor and Andrew.

Candy these uh,

these are your brothers.

- I have brothers?

- It's very nice to meet you.

- Hi Trevor.

- [Trevor] Hi.

- You better give
me a hug, girl.

(laughs)

Welcome to the family.

- [Candy] Thank you.

- Don't I get an introduction?

- This is Trevor and
Andrew's mother, Delores.

- It's a pleasure
meeting you Mrs. Nelson.

- Well, don't forget.

I was married to Freddy,

and I was faithful for
every bit of 37 years.

How old are you?

- Careful, Delores.

- I'm 35, Ma'am.

- Excuse me.

Hi, Mrs. Nelson.

I'm Lewis.

Candy's manager.

So sorry for your loss.

Listen, we came a long
way to be here today,

and I hear southern
women know how to cook.

Quite frankly, we're starving.

Any chance we get a bite to eat?

- Suzy Mae.

Go to the kitchen and get a
hot plate for these people.

Hold up.

But bring me a cold
glass of ice water.

I'm a need it.

- Thank you.

- It's beautiful.

House.

- Yes, it's nice.

- [Abner] Mm-Hmm.

- And there's Daddy after he got

his high school diploma
eight years ago.

He did regret
having to drop out,

but he did have a
family to look after.

- But that didn't
stop him from starting

his own plumbing business.

That's his store right there.

- And his ice cream parlor.

- And he had a delivery service.

That's the one I'm in
charge of right there.

- Oh.

- And she don't care
nothing about that.

(laughing)

- Well, I was just
trying to show her

that Daddy was a go getter.

- And I'm telling you she
don't care nothing about that.

- He was no slouch.

- Well, your momma
made a complete fool

out of herself today.

- [Abner] That's
enough, Delores.

This child ain't come here
to be insulted by you.

- She ain't no kin to me, Abner.

- But she's kin to me,

and I ain't gonna let you
treat her like mangy dog,

done wandered in off the street.

- More like a mutt
if you ask me.

- [Abner] Dolores!

Please!

- This here is our
family's house,

and ain't nobody ask me

how I felt about her being her.

- Okay.

Maybe I should go.

- Blowing in her, like
she's some big movie star.

Honey, we don't need
your favors, okay?

- That wasn't my intention.

- Mm-Hmm.

You're probably
on that stuff too.

- Dolores stop it.

- [Dolores] Most
big time stars are.

- That's not true.

- Well, that wouldn't
surprise me none.

Because the apple don't
fall far from the tree.

- What is she talking about?

- Nothing.

She ain't talking about nothing.

- Nothing?

You are one year in
the looney bin nothing?

And judging by that
performance she put on today,

she needs to go back in there.

- [Man] Mama!

- Okay, gentleman,
if you'll excuse me.

I'm gonna leave now.

Lewis.

Thank you for your hospitality.

- [Dolores] I can't
say it was a pleasure.

- [Man] Candy?

- Come on baby.

Come on here to Nanny.

- [Abner] God don't
like ugly, Dolores.

- Ya'll don't forget I
buried my husband today.

- Uh Candy, you should friend me

so I can send you all
the family pictures.

Oh...

Oh you thought it was because

I wanted to brag to
everybody about you

being my sister and all,

but, that wasn't even
thinking that until just now,

and I'm sorry.

- It's okay, Trevor.

Really.

- Don't worry about my momma.

You're always
welcome to Manning.

- Thank you, Andrew.

- Look after our sister, Lewis.

- Will do, man.

Thanks for having us.

- I'll uh, drive you
all to the hotel.

- Okay.

Thank you, everyone.

Nice meeting you all.

Abner.

How long have you
all known about me?

- A few years now.

- No one came to see me.

- Freddy's wishes.

He said it wasn't
his call to make.

- Didn't he want to see me?

- He saw you all the time.

Watched the show every morning,

and if you were somewhere close,

he'd go out to see you.

Of course you know about the

notes and flowers and things.

- Yeah, which I won't

get anymore.

- He loved you, Candy.

He just wasn't,

wasn't sure you
wanted to hear it.

- Why would he think that?

- Because of what happened
with him and your momma

years ago.

- Right.

He was married to Delores
when they had their affair.

- Well, well no, it's
deeper than that.

Much deeper.

- Okay, so tell me.

My flight doesn't leave
'till tomorrow morning.

- Well, maybe you oughta
talk to your momma.

Her name is Mary Jordan.

We all call her Mary Jo.

- Might as well, Candy.

We're here.

- Okay.

Where does she live?

- About an hour outside of town.

Far away from
everything and everyone.

(gentle music)

All right, let's head on up.

(gentle music)

(dog barking)

(gentle music)

Mary Jo, call off the dog.

You've got company.

Easy, boy.

We come in peace.

- Be careful, Abner.

- You Mama's boy.

(mumbles)

Shoot.

Mary Jo, I've had it!

- Abner.

It's okay.

Let's go.

- Oh no, I drove an
hour to get out here.

You gonna open up the door.

You're just a stubborn old mule.

- Abner.

Really, if she
doesn't wanna see me,

I don't wanna force her to.

- All right, all right.

We'll head on back.

And I ain't scared
of your dog, neither!

- This is precisely why
I'm not a dog person.

- Candy.

Freddy wanted you to have this.

- [Candy] Thank you, Abner.

For everything.

- Well, I better
be getting back.

Lewis.

Fine meeting you.

- Likewise, Abner.

Take care of yourself.

- Now, don't you be a stranger.

We family now.

(gentle piano music)

- Open the box, dummy.

(gentle piano music)

(sobs)

- She sounds like a real pill.

- Yeah, and then she accused
me of being on drugs.

- What?

- [Candy] Me.

Yeah.

- That's why you
should have come to us

before going out
there on your own.

- I had Lewis with me.

- That's not the same thing.

I'm your mother,

and I would have
straightened all this out.

- Really?

How Mom?

- Well, first of all,

I would have popped that
Dolores woman in the mouth

for talking to you like that.

And then that other woman,
the birth mother, Mary Jane.

- [Candy] Mary Jo.

- Whatever.

She couldn't even open the door?

Well, I'm glad you've gotten
this out of your system,

and I hope that you realize

that you really do
have the best life.

You have the life that God
intended for you to have.

So we're done with this, right?

Candace?

- Mom, I have questions.

And Mary Jo is the only
one who can answer them?

- Well, what if you
don't like what he says?

What then?

Honey, you have all the answers.

Use wisdom and let it go.

- Smells good.

- And it taste good too.

(laughing)

- So I can cover Cleveland
and Cincinnati on Tuesday,

fly back for work on Wednesday.

Wednesday afternoon I'm
gonna head to Chicago,

do an in store visit
to sister station,

come back home Thursday.

I'll stay local after the show,

do a couple press
junkets with radio,

and then Friday afternoon

I'm gonna head to D.C. for
the breast cancer auction,

and I'll be there Saturday
to leave for New York.

What?

What's the problem?

Why are you looking
at me like that?

- You hate doing interviews.

Now you're trying to do
a hundred in five days?

- Well, Lewis, you
said that the book

isn't gonna sell itself, so...

- I just don't think
it's a good idea

that you jam pack your
schedule so tight, Candy.

- Well, unfortunately
I don't make decisions

based on what you think, Gina.

I like this.

Let uh, this is too bright.

Hold on a second.

Let me see something.

This is a size six,
I'm a size four.

- Okay, you know.

You've kind of gained

a little over the past week.

- Okay, that's not true.

- Candy.

- You know what?

It's all right.

I mean, it's not like
a size six is fatal.

I mean there are lots
of women out there

that wear size sixes.

- You know what?

Well, that's great for them.

But I am a size four,

and if you don't
know the difference

between a four and a six,

then perhaps you
shouldn't be a stylist.

- Okay, I'll grab you a four.

- All right, everyone.

I need a moment with Candy.

Please!

- [Candy] Why did you do that?

- Because apparently
you've lost your mind.

- You and I both know,

in this business, a size
six is a fatality, okay.

I might as well just be
on the biggest loser.

- But you're over
reacting, Candy.

- Really?

Because I'm saying
what it is I want

and how I want it?

- Oh, I see.

You're angry about
your birth mother.

Things didn't go well with her,

so you're trying to take
it out on everyone else?

- That's not true.

- Listen, Candy.

I know you're disappointed,

but you can't control
how people feel.

- Thank you, Dr. Phil.

- I spoke to Abner again.

He said you haven't been
returning any of his calls.

- You know what, Lewis?

If you wanna remain my manager,

then it's probably a good idea

for you not to bring
up those people

or that place to me again.

- So you're threatening
to fire me, too?

- [Candy] Where are you going?

Where are you going?

- To get some air.

If that's okay, boss.

(dramatic music)

- Francisca! Elija!

We got two minutes.

(gentle music)

- You were trippin'.

- Well, I don't like animals.

You know that.

- Why you guys were gone,

of course, our last segment,

where we had the spider monkey

from Argentina.

- You're right.

- Cute little animals.

She's trippin'.

- Cute?

Hold on.

How many cautionary tales

do we need about people

having their face ripped off

by wild animals?

It's a wild animal,

it doesn't belong...

- A spider monkey is
as big as my hand.

- It's our last guest.

Showed us how to make
some of our favorite

dishes with alternatives

and a more healthy way.

Now, okay, Jay.

- I'm sorry, you're last guest

was your next door neighbor.

(laughing)

No, really, seriously.

We have to start
putting real chefs on,

instead of people
that are your friends.

- Our next guest
has created a new

fitness craze that's
taking the nation by storm.

It combines soccer and sambo.

What do you think
about this, Jay?

- Um...

I actually don't
know what sambo is.

(laughing)

- Mm-Hmm.

Yeah, I know.

I can um, I can just

catch the red eye
again on the way back.

That's fine.

No big deal.

Okay, well I'll
see you Thursday.

Looking forward to it.

You take care.

Bye bye.

- Candy, I can get
you an energy drink

to make it through
the day if you want.

- Um...

Yeah, that would be great, Gina.

Thank you.

Oh, has uh,

has Lewis called?

He should be here by now.

- No, but I can get him
on the phone for you.

- [Candy] Okay.

(knocking)

- Hey Candy.

Five minute warning.

Thank you.

- [Gina] Candy?

Candy?

- [Woman] Hey, slow down.

You're gonna have to eat some
real food today, you know?

- [Candy] No I don't.

- [Woman] No I don't.

- I made a huge mistake today.

- Which was?

- Watch the news.

Apparently the whole world
knows that I fainted.

Can only imagine what the
Twitter thugs are saying.

- Only that you OD'd
on some diet pills,

I mean, but that...

And I wasn't supposed
to tell you that.

Sorry.

- Well, did they plug
the book at least?

- No.

Oh, come on, Candy.

It's gonna be okay.

- I don't know, Char.

I just...

I've never felt so lost.

And it has nothing
to do with you

and Mom and Dad.

It's just...

I feel like I'm
losing it, you know.

Like, I just feel
so out of place.

Will you pray for me?

- Yep.

Heavenly Father,
we ask for you help

to guide Candace today.

For you to give her the
insight and direction on

what she should do.

We know that your desire for her

is for her to prosper
and be in health.

Touch her body,
her mind, her soul.

Restore to her your peace

that surpasses
all understanding.

Thank you for it now,

and in Jesus name.

- And in Jesus name.

Amen.

That soup home made?

- Yeah, yeah, our
cousin Campbell made it.

- You are such a bad liar.

You're supposed to
make home made soup.

I'm sick.

- I forgot the chicken.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- [Lewis] How are you feelin'?

- I feel good.

Brownie?

From my favorite place?

Had did you know?

- Because I know you, Candy.

Better than you think.

I need to know what you wanna do

about the rest of the book tour.

- Oh, you know,

I'm so rude, I didn't even
offer you anything to drink.

You want some lemonade
or ice tea or water?

- [Lewis] No, Candy.

What do you wanna do?

- You just missed Charmaine.

She's checked on my
like umpteenth times

since this whole ting happened,

so...

- Candy, what do you wanna do?

- I don't wanna go, Lewis.

What happens if we
cancel everything?

- Simple.

You lose a ton of
money on book sales,

piss off a few dozen vendors,

and disappoint a whole lot
of fans who wanna see you.

- Why are you acting like this?

- Isn't this how
you want me to be?

All business.

- No.

- Then let's stop playing games.

I care about you.

I care about your
health, your well being,

but, you got unfinished
business in Manning,

and unless you get
to the bottom of it,

you gonna fall apart,

along with everything
you built in your career.

(gentle music)

- Lewis I'm scared.

- I know, but,

God is with you on this.

So am I.

Okay?

- Okay.

- Good.

Maybe you should call your
Mom or sister to go with you.

- Well...

I um, prefer to
travel with friends.

Lewis.

I can't do this without you.

Don't make me beg.

- Okay.

(lively music)

Oh, thank you.

- Oh my gosh.

Dinner was delicious.

- [Lewis] Mm-Hmm.

- And who made that
amazing pecan pie?

- Right here.

- Ya'll heard that.

She loves my pie.

- So uh, think you're ready
to see Ms. Mary Jo tomorrow?

- I don't know,
Andrew, but I hope so.

- We're gonna give it a week

and see what happens.

- And what about that dog?

- Well, I have a
steak and a BB gun.

I'm a try the steak first.

- Okay, okay.

- We thought we'd never
see you again, Candy.

And then we heard you
fainted on the news.

- Yeah, everything's fine.

You know, it's just, a
lot happened in a month.

I found I have two
brothers, a sister-in-law,

new nieces and nephews.

- And one amazing uncle.

(laughing)

Ya'll want me to
drive you out there?

- No, you don't have
to do that, Abner.

We rented a car this time.

I remember the waiting, so.

- Well, let me know
if you need anything.

- [Lewis] Yes sir.

Will do.

- Don't worry, Abner.

I'm not afraid of Mary Jo.

- You might have to use
that BB gun on her too.

(laughing)

- Goodness.

(lively acoustic guitar music)

Hello.

Do you remember me?

- [Mary Jo] Here Granit.

Come on, boy.

Come on.

Let's go.

Good boy.

- [Candy] Mary Jo,
please talk to me.

(engine starts)

- You weren't expecting
her to come easy.

Remember?

- Did you see how
she looked at me?

Like I'm an intruder.

- Well, she won't feel
that way too much longer.

'Cause we're not giving up.

Come on.

Let's get something to eat.

- Just a tea spoon,

and I mean a tea spoon.

Of white wine.

- You're kidding?

Oh, I never would have guessed.

- I know.

It's my secret weapon.

Now if you tell
anybody about it,

I will hunt you and
beat you senseless.

Do you understand?

- I do.

- [Woman] Okay.

Any questions?

- No.

(birds chirping)

Mary Jo.

You in there?

- [Mary Jo] Go away, and
stay off my property.

- We need to talk.

- [Mary Jo] I ain't interested.

Just go back to
your fancy hotel.

- How do you know I'm staying

at a fancy hotel?

- [Mary Jo] You got
money, don't ya?

Don't take a genius
to figure that out.

- Mary Jo, I just
wanna talk to you,

and I'm not leaving until we do.

- [Mary Jo] Then you better get
a camp fire going out there,

'cause I ain't opening the door.

- You know what?

Abner is right.

You're just a stubborn mule.

- No, no no.

- [Mary Jo] You hard
of hearing, child?

- What are you afraid of?

I know you heard me.

I'm scared to, Mary Jo,

but I'm here.

All right, this is the,

the best pecan pie I've ever had

in the whole wide world.

So, I'm gonna come back
tomorrow and collect my dish.

Maybe some good food

will help you reconsider.

I made some progress today.

At least she spoke.

- Well you'll, you'll
wear her down eventually.

- She's just so bull
headed and stubborn.

- Yeah, tell me about it.

- What is that supposed to mean?

- [Lewis] Well,
Candy, let's just say

I can see the
family resemblance.

- I am not stubborn, Lewis.

I am meticulous.

I'm tenacious.

- Well, the rest of the
world calls that stubborn,

and you're too bossy.

- All right, why don't you
just throw in overbearing

while you're at it?

- [Lewis] And
extremely sarcastic.

- I didn't realize I was
making everyone so miserable.

- The pout.

My personal favorite.

- You know, can you please stop?

I do have feelings.

- All right, all right.

I'll stop.

- Well, if I'm so awful, then,

why don't you just leave?

Quit.

- Well...

'Cause I like you.

I like your heart.

I mean, when it's
in the right place.

- Yeah, well, I bet
you didn't count

on all this family drama.

- I mean, what family
doesn't have drama?

- Really?

Okay, well, I'm all ears.

- My parents divorced
when I was 12.

My oldest sister died
of breast cancer.

My youngest sister's
in the military.

Oldest brother's incarcerated.

My middle brother is
happily married in Florida,

and then there's me.

No wife, no kids, no rap sheet.

(chuckles)

- I didn't know any of that.

Lewis, when did your
older sister die?

- Last year.

- Why didn't you tell me?

I mean, you didn't
have to grieve alone.

- You were busy with your book,

so I didn't wanna distract you.

- What was her name?

- Evette.

- Evette.

- Evette.

(gentle music)

(birds chriping)

(gentle music)

- She's gone.

- Then we'll wait.

- Hey.

At least she ate the pie.

- [Lewis] Oh.

- I think.

- [Lewis] Well, somebody ate it.

- It's so peaceful out here.

- Yeah, it's like

a place that time
forgot, you know?

Not a strip mall or
a Starbucks in sight.

- No cameras or microphones.

You know it's like there's no

expectations or demands.

I can just...

Be free.

Sorry.

Just...

Slipped out.

- Don't be.

(birds chirping)

- Since we're just sitting here,

let's go look around.

- No.

- [Candy] Come on.

Yeah.

- Really?

This girl's gonna get me killed.

- [Candy] Come on.

- [Lewis] Wait, wait.

- Oh.

Isn't this amazing.

- A swing?

- Yeah.

- [Lewis] I guess.

- Ah, Lewis.

Feel free to push
me at any time.

- Yes, boss.

(laughing)

That's good.

- Yeah.

A little higher please.

- [Lewis] Right.

(laughing)

You asked for it.

- This is so fun.

- Yeah, you needed some of that.

What?

It's true.

- You know, you're right.

I guess.

I don't really let myself

have this kind of fun.

You know, not since I was a kid.

- I miss those days, you know.

It's like, my father
used to take us camping

when we were little.

We had some good times together.

- Where's your dad now?

- He's, he's with Evette.

- Sorry.

- That's okay, Candy.

People die.

People we love very much.

That's why this is
such a blessing.

You know, you get a second
chance with Mary Jo,

and as long as she's
alive, there's hope.

- We been out here a while.

You think she might be back?

- I don't know.

Let's go see.

- [Candy] Okay.

- If I can get out.

- Um...

I'll race you.

- Naw, I don't want
you to choke to death.

You know?

- Choke on what?

- [Lewis] My dust.

Hold on, let me tie my shoe.
- [Candy] Oh God, please.

- [Candy] I'm gonna smoke you.

Ready, set, go!

- Wait, wait, wait, wait!

Come on, come on.

(screaming)

Candy!

You okay?

Is that?

(laughing)

Oh, it stinks.

Here, let me help you up.

- Get off me!

Okay.

I don't need your help.

- Okay, Mary Jo.

- I'm not that woman.

- You sure about that?

Wait, wait.

Wait, wait wait wait.

- Get off me!

Get off me!

- [Lewis] I'm sorry.

- Get off me!

I hate you.

- Calm down, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't
have said that.

(sobbing)

- [Candy] I'm not her.

(sobbing)

Why won't you say that?

I'm not that woman.

(dramatic music)

- [Lewis] I'm sorry.

Let it out.

(sobbing)

- I'm sorry, I'm...

I'm sorry I hit you.

- That's okay.

I'm a big boy.

I can take it.

I think she's back.

- Lewis, let's just go back.

Okay, I don't wanna
stand out here all day,

begging her to open the door.

And plus, I stink really badly.

- Yeah, you do.

That just might work
to your advantage.

Hold on one second.

- Where are you going?

Come on.

I just wanna get in the car.

(screams)

Come on, Lewis.

Stop it.

(laughing)

- [Lewis] Quit whinin'.

- What ya'll doin'?

This is private property!

- I'm sorry, Ma'am.

Candy fell in some poop,

and well, she stinks really bad.

(birds chirping)

Mmm.

This is good.

What is it?

- Rabbit stew.

- I like it.

What's wrong?

- I don't eat bunnies.

- Well, you do now.

- Here, I'll take it.

What?

I'm hungry.

Thanks for dinner, Mary Jo.

- Welcome.

- Hey, listen, I need
to make a few calls,

so I think I'm gonna
make in the car.

- I...

I like your cookie jars.

I saw the green
house in the back,

so what kind of
vegetables do you grow?

Okay, I'll just

help you clean up.

- [Mary Jo] I got it.

I got it.

- [Candy] No, I can...

But you already cooked...

- [Mary Jo] Would you
please just let me take it?

Please!

- [Candy] I'm sorry, I
didn't mean for it to break.

Okay.

- [Mary Jo] Ah shoot!

Now look what you
done made me do.

- I'm sorry.

Okay, it has to go on the water.

Put it in the water.

- Why'd you come back?

After the funeral.

I mean, after everything.

- I came back for me.

This is for me.

I'm gonna have to get some

peroxide and put it on there.

It's pretty deep.

Put the pressure like that.

Here you go.

Okay.

I know it hurts.

- How'd it go?

- Can you drop me
off here tomorrow?

Alone?

- Sure.

- Good.

(engine starts)

Hello.

Oh.

Hey Granite.

(whistles)

You remember me?

Mary Jo.

Mary Jo.

Seriously, you're gonna
pull this stunt again?

Mary Jo!

- I haven't finished
dressing yet.

Come help me with
these crates out back.

- Good morning to you too.

- You can start with them.

- Wow.

This is amazing.

You do all this yourself?

- Uh-huh.

24 years.

Well, let's get loadin'.

I don't wanna be
late on my runs.

- So, what is all this?

- I sell fruits and vegetables

wholesale to the smaller
grocers, the little ones.

Jams, preserves,
pickled peppers too.

- Oh, so, you're
an entrepreneur.

- Well, if that mean
I own my own business,

yes, Ma'am.

Well let's get movin'.

Come on now.

Time is money.

(thunder)

Lift from your
knees, not your back.

- You want me to call
Triple A or something?

- [Mary Jo] Triple who?

Naw.

Be fine.

Just the coolant leaking again.

(thunder)

- You know, I can drive if that

cut on your hand is hurting.

- Oh, God, I've been
through more than

just this little scratch.

I'll be fine.

- Well, you cut
yourself pretty deep.

You might wanna have
a doctor look at it.

- Nope.

Had my fill of doctors.

You ain't never seen a
woman check her oil before?

Watch and learn.

See, this right here,

that's for your steering fluid.

Check it, you know,

every six months or so,

but your oil,

you check that
every three weeks,

and you keep it full.

- Why did you give me away?

- You just gonna ask me
out of nowhere like that?

- Yeah.

Mary Jo, I need to know.

- You wasn't meant
for me to keep.

- Wasn't meant for you to keep?

I was your child.

Your flesh and blood.

Okay, so explain to me.

What were the
mitigating circumstances

that warranted you
surrendering custody of me?

- Oh that's your
fancy way of asking me

if I gave you up
for no good reason?

- [Candy] Yeah, did you?

- I don't wanna talk about it.

- Well, you know what,
that's just too bad,

because we're stuck out here
in the middle of nowhere,

stuck in a truck together,

so you're just gonna
have to get over it.

- Your manners is terrible.

- Said the pot to the kettle.

- That's what's wrong
with your generation.

Disrespectful.

In my day, children
was to be seen

and no heard.

- Well, you might wanna
take a good look, Mary Jo,

because I'm not a child anymore.

- You.

You don't know what
I've been through.

You just a spoiled,
little rich gal.

- Really?

And you are a nasty old broad.

- You don't talk
to me like that,

'cause I'm your...

- You're my what?

My mother?

You're nothing but a stranger

who happens to share my DNA.

- Well...

I don't ride with no strangers.

- Oh, okay, so what,

you're just gonna
leave me out here

in the middle of nowhere?

You know what, Mary Jo?

This getting rid of me business

is getting kind of old.

Bye!

(crying)

Bye!

Lewis.

Yeah, she left me here

in the middle of nowhere.

Yeah.

You know what?

I'm done.

I wanna go home.

(dramatic music)

- Hey, you faced your fears,

and you came out here.

I'm proud of ya.

(cell phone ringing)

Hey Abner.

What?

No, she doesn't know.

Mary Jo had a stroke.

Where's the hospital?

Okay, we're on the way.

- [Voiceover] Dr.
Forest, dial 118 please.

Dr. Forest, please dial 118.

- I like what you've
done with the place.

(sentimental music)

- It's the entrepreneur suite.

- Mary Jo.

- So how'd you
find me this time?

- Abner.

He knows people who work
at the hospital, so...

- Well, that figures.

One busy body of a
man, just as nosey.

- Yeah, well, you
should probably be

thankful for him,

because...

If it weren't for him...

I wouldn't be here.

- Why'd you come?

You don't like me.

- True.

But that doesn't
change who you are.

Family.

- So now we kin again?

- Yeah, but don't push it.

- Yeah, we family all right.

You asked me a question,

and I think you
deserve a answer.

You was born in this hospital.

When they brought you to me...

Girl...

You were something.

And you was beautiful.

And you was mine.

I was a 16-year old dumb girl.

Big Mama was dead,

and they brought me
these papers to sign.

I thought it was so
the state could help me

take care of you.

Welfare aid.

- But it was the papers
that release custody of me.

- I couldn't read
the words right.

Freddy couldn't help.

- [Candy] Why? Why?

- Excuse me, Ms. Myers,

but visiting hours are over,

and Ms. Jordan here really
needs to get her rest.

- Well, we just need
five more minutes.

- I'm sorry.

Doctor's orders.

- [Candy] Okay, well,
I'm gonna stay in town

a few more days.

I'll see you when you get out.

- Can I see your
arm, Ms. Jordan?

Ms. Jordan?

Your arm.

I'm sorry.

(gentle acoustic guitar music)

(phone ringing)

- Hey Mom, what's up?

- What's up?

That's all you have to
say to me after two weeks?

Where are you, Candace?

- I'm still in Manning.

- Why?

I mean you all talked
it out, didn't you?

Why are you still there?

- I don't know.

- What do you mean
you don't know?

Your life is here,

in Atlanta with your family.

- Mary Jo's family too,

and...

She needs me.

Mom?

- Yes.

- I love you,

and nothing is
gonna change that.

I just, I need to stay
here a little bit longer,

and then I'll come home.

Okay?

- Okay.

- All right, well, tell
Daddy I love him too,

and I'll talk to you both soon.

Bye.

- [Mary Jo] What is that?

- Ba-lot bini.

- Ba-lot?

- It's Indian food.

- I don't eat no Indian food.

- Well, you do now.

(laughing)

- Your Daddy didn't like
no funny food neither.

He was strong
meat, potatoes man.

- You know, Mary Jo,

why does everybody keep
talking about Freddy?

Like he's some sort of hero?

He was a married man

who cheated on his wife,

who seduced a young,
uneducated girl,

and then he left her
when she was pregnant.

- No, it wasn't
nothing like that.

All that stuff
happened later on.

I met Freddy when
I was 14 years old,

and he was 16.

When I laid eyes on
him, I loved him.

And somehow I always knew,

that that man was
gonna be my husband,

and he knew too.

Candace, it was Freddy
who wanted to wait,

until we was old
enough to get married.

But when the waitin' got hard,

I started pushing him away.

Well, that Delores Jameson,

that little fast heifer.

She always had the
hots for my Freddy.

So he invited him

to a party

and since I had been
fighting him so hard,

he went alone,

and...

She got him pissy drunk,

and seduced him,

and four months later they
had a shotgun wedding,

because they found
out she was pregnant.

And her Daddy, Deacon Jameson,

wasn't having no
bastards in his family?

- Okay, so then what?

So, now he's married,

and he starts double dippin'?

- [Mary Jo] Oh no.

- Coming to see you, and
then going home to her.

- He was not that kind of man.

No.

We stayed away from each other.

He came to the house
'cause he found out

that big momma was dying,

and he knew I
didn't have nobody.

And so that's when...

Oh, it was the most
beautiful night of my life.

I finally had my Freddy.

And then when we found
out we was having you,

we was so happy, and we was
gonna run away together.

We had a plan, and everything.

- So what happened?

I mean, why didn't
you guys just leave?

- We was gonna do it.

He drove up to the house

with all his stuff,

and I hopped in, ready to go.

And he just couldn't do it.

We sat in that car for
three hours crying.

That man broke broke
my heart that night.

That's what I'm
trying to tell you.

Your Daddy was an honorable man.

Being the God fearing
man that he was,

he was ashamed that
he cheated on Delores,

and he decided that he wanted

to be right by her and stay.

We knew we could
never be together,

but we never stopped
loving each other.

See?

He gave me this...

And he put the same thing
on the back of his watch.

- What does it mean?

- With every beat of my heart.

You were born out of love.

(sentimental music)

So much love.

See, if you grab it just right,

you get that string right off.

- Oh, okay.

Can I just snap 'em.

- Try.

- [Candy] Okay, I'll try.

Hey, Mary Jo?

- [Mary Jo] Hmm?

- Did you always
have trouble readin'?

Like...

Where the letters get
confused sometimes?

- No.

They get confused all the time.

- You know, I think
you have dyslexia.

- Now what is that?

Make it plain now.

You know I don't speak no Greek.

- Oh, it's just.

Okay, some people,
when they read,

they get confused.

No matter how many
words they know,

the letters seem like
they're in the wrong place.

- Exactly so.

That's exactly so.

- Mary Jo, you're not dumb.

You're just undiagnosed.

- Well, how you know
so much about it?

- 'Cause I have it too.

And I found out it's hereditary.

- From...

Oh.

Mmm, mmm, mmm.

All right, it's my turn.

Where's your friend?

- Who?

Lewis?

- [Mary Jo] Mm-Hmm.

- He went home last week.

- Did you see him off?

- Now why would I do that?

He flies all the time.

- You love him?

- What kind of question is that?

- The kind of question
you ain't answered yet.

Do you love him?

- No.

Maybe.

I don't know.

No.

No, I don't.

- Listen.

True love only comes
once in a lifetime,

and I don't wanna see
you lose your season.

(lively music)

(cell phone vibrating)

- Hey Candy.

It's uh, it's me again.

Just, just checking on ya.

Yeah, um, gimme a call

when you get a chance.

Hope everything's all right.

All right, um, bye.

- [Mary Jo] Candace, I told you

bend from your
knees, not your back.

- Oh my gosh, can
you please stop

nagging me, Mary Jo.

You sound like my mother.

- [Mary Jo] Now I know for sure

it's time for you to go.

- So what?

You're sick of me already?

- No.

But it is time for you to
start living your own life.

And it sure ain't here
selling peach jam with me.

- I like it here with you.

- And I like that you like it.

You gotta stop hiding, Candace.

- I'm not hiding.

I'm, I'm resting.

- Yes, you're hiding.

Just like I did with big Mama.

- It's just when
I'm home, you know,

it's like everybody wants
something from me, you know.

The morning show,
and my publisher,

and my business partners,

and, I just, I just
wanna be happy, okay.

I just wanna be left alone.

- Look at me.

You see what happens
when you're left along?

You just become a
cuckoo old woman.

Only friend in the
world is a dog.

- At least he's a cute dog.

- Go home.

It's time.

(somber music)

- Lewis.

(sentimental music)

Hey, I don't know where you are,

but it's me again.

Can you please call
me when you get this?

Bye.

(gentle music)

- [Lewis] You're
not gonna say hello?

- Not when you're
five hours late.

Where were you?

- Out.

- Out?

Out doing what?

- Out doing busy.

Why?

- So you were too busy
to return my phone call?

I was worried about you, Lewis.

- You didn't return
any of my calls

when you were in Manning.

- I was bonding with
my birth mother.

- So what?

You just forgot about me?

- No, okay.

No, I didn't forget about you.

All right?

That's not fair.

I called you, I
saw the pictures,

and I called you over to eat

so we could...

- To what?

Candy?

Huh?

To what?

- Never mind.

Forget it.

- Exactly.

Fine, I'll just go home.

- Bye.

Bye.

- You know what, Candy?

You are so stubborn.

And you're never gonna change.

That's why I quit.

I don't wanna be
your manager anymore.

- Fine, I don't
want you to be...

(gentle music)

Well, everyone, this is the end

of my first week back to work,

and I just wanna
thank all of you

for your cards, your
letters, your e-mails,

your tweets to me and my family.

I really appreciate it.

And I also want to extend

my sincerest gratitude

to the best co
anchor in the world,

Mr. Jay Grant.

You have worked with me
for over eight years,

and you have never said
one negative word about me,

and I really appreciate that.

I love you, Jay.

- I love you too, Candy.

You know, I actually
love your book too.

- Oh.

- No, no, real talk.

George is this it?

Right here?

Good.

Having My Chocolate
Cake and Eating It Too.

This was an incredible read.

I mean it really, really was.

Well done, Candy.

- Thank you, darlin'.

Well everyone, that's
our show for today.

- Now, you will
be back next week.

Right?

- Oh yeah, you're not
gettin' rid of me, Jay.

- Oh, I hope not, because
I can't work by myself.

I need my ace boon.

All right, I need my
write or die chick,

you know what I'm sayin'?

I need my Michelle Obama.

I need my Dwayne Wade.

(laughing)

I need my Beyonce.

All right?

Are you ready, B?

- Surf board.

Okay, all right, listen.

Jay, say goodbye to the
nice people of America.

- Goodbye to the nice
people of America.

- See you later.

- Take care.

- See you next week.

- That was nice.

- [Man] And we're clear.

Great show everybody.

Great week.

That's a wrap.

That's a wrap.

And her mothers.
