SLIPPING IN LATE TO CHURCH THIS MORNING?

- SLIPPING IN?

BOYCE, YOU SPRINTED DOWN THE AISLE

WITH YOUR ROBE HIKED UP AROUND YOUR WAIST.

YOU KNOW, YOU KNOCKED OVER SISTER HENDERSON'S OXYGEN TANK.

- THAT'S WHY SHE WAS FLIPPING AROUND

LIKE A GOLDFISH OUT OF WATER?

I THOUGHT SHE HAD JUST CAUGHT THE SPIRIT.

- BOYCE, THAT'S THE SAME SERMON YOU GAVE LAST MAY.

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU IN RERUNS ALREADY.

- DADDY, MY BOSS HASN'T WRITTEN

NEW MATERIAL IN OVER 2,000 YEARS.

DON'T WORRY, DADDY.

I ONLY GOT A FEW MORE DAYS IN THE STUDIO.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

30 MINUTESIS DOING A LITTLE STORY ON ME

ABOUT MY RETURN TO MUSIC.

- BABY, I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!

- HEY, I'M PROUD OF ME TOO, BABY.

YOU KNOW, AND THEY MAY WANT TO DO INTERVIEWS WITH YOU GUYS.

- [gasps] - SO JUST BE HONEST, ALL RIGHT?

EXCEPT FOR YOU, DADDY.

I ACTUALLY HAVE SOME TALKING POINTS FOR YOU.

- IF ANYONE STICKS A MIC IN MY FACE,

I'M GONNA TELL 'EM ABOUT MY SON

WHO FORGOT HE'S A PASTOR.

- DADDY, I GOT IT COVERED, ALL RIGHT?

EXCEPT FOR THIS ONE THING I NEED YOU TO COVER.

BROTHER HAROLD'S 100th BIRTHDAY BRUNCH.

JUST GO THERE AND SAY A PRAYER, PAT HIM ON THE BACK--

NOT TOO HARD BECAUSE HE TIPS OVER REAL EASY.

- OH, PLEASE.

DON'T LET THAT FEEBLE ACT FOOL YOU.

BROTHER HAROLD ONLY FALLS DOWN AROUND WOMEN.

AND TRUST ME, HE KNOWS WHAT TO GRAB

TO PULL HIS SELF BACK UP.

- LISTEN, Y'ALL, I GOTTA GET BACK TO THE STUDIO.

I DON'T WANT 'EM TO START WITHOUT ME.

[chuckles] WHO AM I KIDDING?

THEY CAN'T START WITHOUT ME.

I'LL HOLLA.

- LISTEN, CHARLIE.

OKAY, MY CUPCAKE TRUCK HITS THE STREETS IN A WEEK.

WHAT'S THE WORLD COMING TO?

HEY, I'M GETTING READY

FOR MY 30 MINUTES INTERVIEW.

TELL ME, DOES THIS SUIT SAY, "MODEST PREACHER?"

- NO, BUT IT DOES SAY,

"TRICK BETTER HAVE DADDY'S MONEY."

BABY, LISTEN, I-I JUST DON'T THINK YOU WANNA BE FLASHY

ON YOUR 30 MINUTES INTERVIEW.

- YEAH, YOU RIGHT, BABY.

IT'S NOT ABOUT THE CLOTHES. - NO.

- THIS IS ALL ABOUT MY SPIRITUAL JOURNEY

FROM INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR TO A HUMBLE SERVANT OF GOD.

YOU KNOW, I GOT A GREAT FAMILY,

ADORING FANS, A FAITHFUL FLOCK.

SOMEHOW I'M JUST ABLE TO BE EVERYWHERE AT ONE TIME.

I'M LIKE, UM-- WHAT'S THE WORD?

SUPERMAN.

[chuckles]

- AND THIS IS HIM WITH PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON

AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

- MM, SO THE PRESIDENT WAS A FAN?

- OH, YEAH.

NO, HE EVEN SUGGESTED THAT BOYCE DO A FOLLOW-UP SONG

TO I WANNA HAVE SEX WICHOO

CALLED I DIDN'T HAVE SEX WITH HER.

- WELL, THIS IS GREAT.

THANKS FOR SHOWING US AROUND, LOLLI.

- OH, YOU KNOW WHAT?

BOYCE REALLY SHOULD BE THE ONE DOING THIS,

AND I'M GONNA GO UP AND CHECK ON HIM.

YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST THAT HE

HAD A REALLY LATE NIGHT AT THE STUDIO.

- DON'T WAKE HIM.

- OH, NO, HE'S NOT ASLEEP.

HE'S IN THE JACUZZI.

HE SAYS IF YOU TILT THE JETS JUST RIGHT,

IT TICKLES HIS GENIUS.

WHAT?

GIRL, THAT'S HIS QUOTE, NOT MINE.

- MMM.

OH, THIS FROZEN YOGURT IS GREAT.

OH, HEY, THANKS FOR BUYING, BABY.

- I DIDN'T PAY. I THOUGHT YOU DID.

- FIRST WE HAVE SEX IN A CHURCH

AND NOW WE'RE STEALING YOGURT?

I USED TO BE SUCH A GOOD GIRL.

- NOW THAT'S NOT WHAT I HEARD.

- OH. - UH-UH.

- OKAY, OKAY.

WELL, WAIT A MINUTE, ARE YOU SURE THAT WE'RE ALONE?

- WELL, I HEAR BOYCE IN THE JACUZZI TUB,

SO WE ARE COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY ALONE.

- OKAY. - OOH.

EXCUSE ME.

EXCEPT FOR A NATIONAL TELEVISION SHOW.

- YOU MUST BE BOYCE'S BROTHER.

IS THE WHOLE FAMILY THIS ATTRACTIVE?

- WELL, WE DO HAVE A COUSIN THAT WE'RE NOT TOO PROUD OF.

- OH. [laughs]

- UH, EXCUSE ME.

HOW IS HIS BODY RELEVANT?

- WELL, I DIDN'T SAY "BODY,"

BUT NOW THAT YOU MENTION IT, IT IS IMPRESSIVE.

- YOU KNOW WHAT?

WHY DON'T YOU KEEP YOUR EYES TO YOURSELF?

- WHOA, WHOA, NOW--NOW HOLD ON, NOW.

AS MUCH AS I LIKE PEOPLE ADMIRING MY BODY--

- WHO'S ADMIRING YOUR BODY?

WHAT IS GOING ON IN HERE?

- YOU KNOW WHAT, SIS? WHY DON'T YOU JUST ADMIT IT?

YOU DON'T LIKE BLACK PEOPLE IN YOUR KITCHEN.

- ♪ LET YOUR HAIR HANG DOWN, BABY ♪

♪ OVER YOUR FACE

- WHAT'S UP, DADDY? WHAT IT DO?

- I THINK IT SHOULD GIVE JERMAINE JACKSON BACK HIS JACKET

AND GET HIS BUTT DOWN TO THE CHURCH WHERE IT BELONGS.

- WHOA, WHOA, WHY ARE YOU ALL IN BOYCE'S GRILL?

DID SOMETHING HAPPEN AT BROTHER HAROLD'S BIRTHDAY BASH?

- WELL, HE BLEW OUT HIS CANDLES AND FELL OFF HIS CHAIR.

GOT HIMSELF UP WITH TWO HANDFULS OF SISTER PEARLY.

- THAT'S A BAD THING TO HAVE TO WAIT 100 YEARS FOR.

HEY, GOOD LOOKIN' OUT, DADDY.

HEY, BY THE WAY, I GOT A COUPLE MORE THINGS

I WOULD LIKE YOU TO DO ON MY TUESDAY SCHEDULE.

- LIKE WHAT? - MY TUESDAY SCHEDULE.

- SON, I DON'T THINK YOU REALIZE

HOW SERIOUS THIS CHURCH SITUATION IS.

SOME OF YOUR FLOCK ARE WONDERING IF THEY STILL HAVE A SHEPHERD.

- THAT'S WHY I NEED AN OLD DOG LIKE YOU

TO KEEP 'EM IN LINE.

- BOYCE, I AM RUNNING OUT OF STUFF

TO TELL YOUR TV PEOPLE.

ONE MORE QUESTION AND I'MA FALL BACK

ON TELLIN' THEM THE TRUTH.

- UH, BABE, LOOK, I CAN'T DO THAT TODAY.

I GOTTA GET DOWN TO THE STUDIO.

WHICH REMINDS ME, WOULD YOU PICK ME UP

SOME CHINESE FOR LUNCH?

CASHEW CHICKEN, HOLD THE CASHEWS.

- WH--NO--BOYCE, I GOTTA GET TO THE SALON.

I'M UP TO MY WEAVE IN WEAVES.

- THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING OUT, BABY.

I APPRECIATE THAT, ALL RIGHT.

[kisses] SEE YOU LATER, ALL RIGHT.

DON'T WAIT UP FOR ME. [chuckles]

- OKAY, IT HAS HAPPENED.

DIVA BOYCE IS BACK.

NOW HE'S GONNA START TREATING ME LIKE I'M ON THE PAYROLL.

- BOY BETTER NOT BRING THAT STUFF MY WAY.

- HEY, DADDY, GO DOWN TO THE CLEANERS

AND GRAB MY ROBES FOR ME, ALL RIGHT?

AND BRING 'EM TO THE STUDIO.

AND REMEMBER, IF YOU WANNA GET REIMBURSED,

KEEP THE RECEIPT. [chuckles]

TWO FINGERS, Y'ALL.

- BOYCE, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN, MAN?

- OH, MAN, SORRY.

I GOT MOBBED DOWN IN JAMBA JUICE, MAN.

BUNCH OF KIDS WANTED MY AUTOGRAPH.

- COME ON, BOYCE, THAT DON'T EVEN HAPPEN TO YOU NO MORE.

- OH, SURE IT DOES.

I MEAN, ONCE I TOLD 'EM MY NAME AND THEY GOOGLED ME,

PANDEMONIUM.

I GOT A FREE RAZZMATAZZ OUT OF IT.

- MAN, YOU MISSED OUR MEETING WITH CHAD.

- LOOK, MAN, BOYCE THE VOICE IS COMING INTO THE STUDIO, MAN.

THE DUDE CAN WAIT AROUND 20 MINUTES.

- BOYCE, YOU'RE AN HOUR AND A HALF LATE!

- LET ME FILL YOU IN ON SOMETHING, SWEETS.

- MM-HMM. - THIS WATCH RIGHT HERE?

- YEAH. - DECORATIVE.

- YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE, MAN.

CHAD WAS FULL OF IDEAS.

- CHAD WAS FULL OF IDEAS. DO TELL.

- HE GAVE ME ONE WORD TO GIVE TO YOU, ALL RIGHT?

LOOK, DON'T REACT. LET IT SINK IN.

BANJO.

- REALLY? - MM-HMM.

- OKAY, WELL, I'M GONNA GIVE YOU MY RESPONSE, OKAY?

- UH-HUH. - AND DON'T REACT.

- OKAY. - JUST LET IT SINK IN.

- MM-HMM. - HELL NO.

- BOYCE.

- LOOK, DUDE MIGHT BE A LITTLE MARKETING GENIUS,

BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I'M GONNA TAKE NOTES FROM HIM.

- COME ON, DON'T MESS THIS UP FOR ME, BOYCE.

LOOK, MAN, THIS COUNTRY MUSIC

IS THE HOTTEST THING GOING RIGHT NOW,

AND CHAD BELIEVES YOU HAVE CROSSOVER POTENTIAL.

HE SAW A PICTURE OF YOU IN A COWBOY HAT.

- IT WAS HALLOWEEN.

I WENT AS ZOMBIE CHARLEY PRIDE.

- COME ON, MAN.

CHAD JUST WANTS YOU TO HAVE A BANJO, BROTHER.

WHAT--WHAT'S THE PROBLEM WITH A BANJO?

- I JUST DON'T LIKE THE WAY

"BANJO" JUST ROLLS OFF YOUR TONGUE LIKE THAT.

[phone rings]

- WHAT?

OH.

HEY, CHADSTER.

- "CHADSTER." - EVERYTHING'S FINE.

- HEY, BABY.

- OOH, HEY, BABY.

- HERE IS YOUR CASHEW CHICKEN, NO CASHEWS,

WHICH MR. FONG HAS NOW RENAMED "CHICKEN."

LISTEN, LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING.

HAVE YOU NOTICED SOMETHING WEIRD

GOING ON BETWEEN STAMPS AND KIM LATELY?

- BABY, THERE'S SOME CASHEWS IN HERE.

- THERE'S ALSO SOME STUFF IN THERE YOU THINK IS CHICKEN.

JUST EAT IT.

LISTEN, SOMETHING IS GOING ON BETWEEN THOSE TWO.

- DOES THIS LOOK LIKE A CASHEW?

'CAUSE THAT LOOKS LIKE A CASHEW TO ME.

- IT'S GONNA LOOK LIKE A HAT TO YOU IN A MINUTE.

BOYCE, YOU'RE NOT EVEN LISTENING TO ME.

- LOOK, BABE, I JUST GOT A CASHEW PROBLEM,

I GOT A BANJO PROBLEM.

I GOT A WHOLE CASHEW-BANJO SITUATION GOING ON HERE.

- HEY, BOYCE. THIS IS CHAD.

HE'S GOT TOBY KEITH ON THE LINE,

AND TOBY IS WILLING TO PUT ASIDE HIS POLITICAL AND SOCIAL VIEWS

TO GET IN ON THIS ALBUM WITH YOU, MAN.

HE'S EVEN WILLING TO BRING HIS OWN BANJO DUDE.

- SAY "BANJO" ONE MORE TIME.

SAY "BANJO" A DAMN T--I-- YOU SAY "BANJO" AGAIN.

I AIN'T DOING NO SONG WITH TOBY KEITH.

- I'M ON THE PHONE!

- YOU CAN TELL CHADSTER I SAID SO.

- UH, CHADLY?

OH, SO YOU HEARD THAT?

OH, ABSOLUTELY.

[chuckles] YEAH, SHE IS FUNNY.

[laughs]

REALLY?

OKAY, I'LL TELL HIM,

AND I WILL TALK TO YOU LATER.

ALL RIGHT.

HEY, BOYCE, TWO THINGS:

CHAD HAD LUNCH WITH ELLEN,

AND YOU'RE FIRED.

- ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

- NO. DOWN AT THE FOUR SEASONS.

- NO, NOT ABOUT THAT.

I'M TALKING ABOUT ME BEING FIRED.

- OH, YEAH, BRO. YOU OUT.

HE ALREADY CALLED AL JARREAU, AND AL IS BANJO-FRIENDLY.

DEUCES.

- I GOT BAD NEWS, SON.

I JUST CAME FROM THE CHURCH ELDER BOARD MEETING.

YOU'VE BEEN RELIEVED OF YOUR DUTIES AS PASTOR.

I TRIED TO WARN YOU. - WHAT?

WAIT A MINUTE, WHO THEY GONNA GET TO LEAD THE CHURCH?

- THEY ASKED ME TO DO IT.

- YOU STILL WORRIED ABOUT YOUR NUTS?

- SO BOYCE, WE'RE NOT TRYING TO AMBUSH YOU HERE,

BUT WE DO HAVE THIS LITTLE PIECE OF VIDEO

WE'D LIKE TO SHOW YOU.

- GO ON AHEAD AND SHOW

WHAT YOU NEED TO SHOW, BABY GIRL.

[chuckles] I'M READY FOR ANYTHING.

♪ WHO ELSE THINKS MY WIFE IS HOT? ♪

♪ WHO ELSE THINKS MY WIFE IS HOT? ♪

♪ WHO ELSE

- SO, DO YOU THINK THERE'S A CONNECTION

BETWEEN INCIDENTS LIKE THIS AND YOU BEING DISMISSED

BY BOTH YOUR CHURCH AND YOUR RECORD LABEL?

- I WOULD SAY THAT HE WHO IS WITHOUT SIN...SHUT UP.

OH, OKAY. OH, COOL, THIS IS MY MAN.

THIS SWEETS, RIGHT HERE.

LIKE, YOU GONNA FIND OUT THE REAL DEAL FROM THIS GUY.

- DIFFICULT, INFLEXIBLE, DEMANDING.

- HE TALKING ABOUT HIS EX-WIVES AGAIN.

- THOSE ARE THE ONLY WORDS TO DESCRIBE BOYCE BALLENTINE.

- WE ALSO TALKED TO YOUR BROTHER, STAMPS.

- GREAT, NOW YOU'LL HEAR WHAT REAL SUPPORT SOUNDS LIKE.

PLEASE DON'T TELL THE JELLY BEAN STORY.

PLEASE DON'T TELL THE JELLY BEAN STORY, PLEASE.

- BOYCE USED TO HAVE 5 POUNDS OF JELLY BEANS

DELIVERED TO HIS DRESSING ROOM

AND MADE ME PICK OUT ALL THE YELLOW ONES.

BUT THE MAN DOESN'T EVEN EAT JELLY BEANS.

HE JUST SAW RAY PARKER JR. DO IT ONCE.

- NOW THAT'S UNTRUE.

I'D NEVER SEEN RAY PARKER DO IT.

I...HEARD HE DID IT, AND AT THE TIME,

I JUST THOUGHT IT MADE SENSE.

- WELL, WHY DID YOU LET HER

FLIRT WITH YOU IN FRONT OF ME, HUH?

YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD HER THAT WE WERE DATING.

- SHE'S A REPORTER.

THEY GET PAID TO REPEAT STUFF, LIKE A SEXY PARROT.

A PRETTY PARROT.

A STUPID PARROT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!

- SO, LOLLI, WOULD IT BE FAIR TO SAY

THAT BOYCE CAN BE TEMPERAMENTAL, UNFAIR, VOLATILE, SELFISH?

- YES.

BUT...

BUT, LET ME FINISH, JESSICA, OKAY?

HE CAN ALSO... BE STUBBORN.

YOU'RE DOING GOOD, BABY. KEEP IT UP.

- WHEN 30 MINUTESRETURNS,

WE'LL BE SPEAKING TO BOYCE'S FATHER,

BARTON BALLENTINE.

- OKAY, JUST SO I'M CLEAR,

WE'RE GONNA KEEP THIS A SECRET FROM EVERYBODY

EXCEPT PRETTY WOMEN WHO FLIRT WITH ME,

IN WHICH CASE I HAVE TO TELL THEM

I'M UNAVAILABLE AND OFFENDED BY THEIR INTEREST,

BUT CAN'T TELL 'EM WHY?

- DON'T YOU DARE MAKE IT SOUND LIKE I'M CRAZY.

- WELL-- - DON'T YOU DO IT!

- REALLY? THAT'S WHAT Y'ALL THINK OF ME?

THAT I'M A DIVA?

- UH, BOYCE, SWEETIE, LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION.

HOW MANY TIMES OVER THE YEARS

HAVE I TAKEN MONTH-LONG TRIPS TO PALM SPRINGS WITHOUT YOU?

- I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE FIVE?

- AND HOW MANY ALBUMS HAVE YOU RECORDED?

- FIVE. BUT YOU DID THAT TO GIVE ME MY CREATIVE SPACE.

- BOYCE, ANY TIME I FLY TO PALM SPRINGS

AND DON'T PACK A BAG

IS REALLY NOT ABOUT GIVING YOU YOUR SPACE.

- WHY HAVEN'T Y'ALL TOLD ME THIS BEFORE?

- WELL, WE ALWAYS TRY, BUT YOU'RE NOT CALLED

"BOYCE THE VOICE" FOR YOUR LISTENING SKILLS.

- I'M SURPRISED Y'ALL JUST DIDN'T PUT A HIT OUT ON ME.

- WHY? DID SOMEBODY TELL YOU WE HAD A MEETING?

'CAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE A MEETING.

- SO BOYCE THE VOICE IS CONFESSING THAT HE FAILED.

- I'M JUST SAYING THAT I COULD USE MORE HUMILITY,

AND I DEFINITELY COULD HAVE BEEN MORE PRESENT AS A PASTOR.

SO IT'S JUST PROOF THAT MY PARISHIONERS WERE RIGHT,

THAT I GOT A LONG WAY TO GO

BEFORE I'M READY TO LEAD THE FIRST CHURCH OF ST. LOUIS.

DADDY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

- TELLING YOU THAT, AS USUAL,

YOU HAVEN'T GOT A CLUE WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

NOW GET UP.

- DAD, ALL RIGHT NOW,

BUT REMEMBER, THIS IS YOU ONTV,

NOT AT HOME YELLING AT IT.

- IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THIS, JESSICA.

ALL THE THINGS MY SON HAS DONE--

DRINKING, CAROUSING, SINNING--

ARE WHAT MAKE HIM A GOOD SHEPHERD.

A MAN WHO HASN'T LED A LIFE CAN'T LEAD OTHERS.

IT TAKES A GREAT STRENGTH OF CHARACTER

TO HUMBLE YOURSELF ON NATIONAL TV.

SO I'M NOT TAKING OVER AS PASTOR.

CHURCH ALREADY HAS ONE.

BOYCE BALLENTINE IS THE RIGHT MAN FOR THE JOB,

AND I LOVE HIM LIKE A SON.

THAT LAST PART WAS A JOKE.

I-I'M A FUNNY MAN.

- [crying] HEY, DAD.

- BOY, WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR EYES?

- NO--NOTHING. I'M JUST, UH, YOU KNOW--

I JUST, UM--

I'M COMING IN, DAD.

- NO, I'D RATHER YOU DIDN'T.

NO, SON!

- OH, I WANT IN ON THIS.

- THAT'S WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO.

THESE SPONTANEOUS MOMENTS OF HEALING,

A FAMILY REUNITED.

WHAT MORE CAN ANYONE SAY?

- KIM AND I ARE DOING IT!

YEP, KIM AND I ARE DOING IT.

WE'RE HAVING A WHOLE LOT OF SEX

AND I DON'T CARE WHO KNOWS ABOUT IT.

ARE YOU HAPPY? IS THAT WHAT YOU WANTED?

- NOT REALLY! WELL, KINDA!

I-I WISH I HAD ON A NICER OUTFIT.

- I TOLD YOU, BOYCE! I KNEW THEY WERE DOING IT.

- WHERE Y'ALL BEEN DOING ALL THIS DOING IT?

- KIM, HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?

THE TWO OF YOU ARE RELATED.

- SEE, THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT, BUT SHE SAYS NO.

- MY BOYS, CAIN AND DISABLED.

- HEY, HEY, BOYCE.

MAN, I JUST FINISHED THE TRACK AND WE GOT A HIT.

THERE'S ONE THING MISSING: BANJO.

- SWEETS, WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT THAT BANJO?

- OH, COME ON. - GET THAT BANJO OUTTA MY HOUSE.

- WE GOT A HIT, BOYCE! - GET THAT BANJO--

- GET OUT OF HERE.

[overlapping arguing]

- AND I TOLD YOU, I DON'T LIKE CASHEWS!
