Original subtitles

- THE SOUL MANIS RECORDED

IN FRONT OF A LIVE STUDIO AUDIENCE.

- OOH, COME ON, HONEY.

WE GOT TO HURRY.

OUR MOVIE DATE STARTS IN 20 MINUTES.

- OKAY, I'M HURRYING, BABE.

I MEAN, I ONLY COVERED EIGHT OUT OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.

BESIDES, WE DON'T GO TO A TYLER PERRY MOVIE TO WATCH IT.

- OOH, STOP, YOUR SERMON JUST ENDED.

I'M SURE GOD IS STILL HANGING AROUND IN HERE SOMEWHERE.

- NICE SERMON, SON.

MIGHTY PROGRESSIVE OF YOU

TO GIVE YOUR CONGREGATION A PASS ON ADULTERY AND MURDER.

- REVEREND, NEXT WEEK,

CAN YOU JUST DO FOUR COMMANDMENTS?

I GOT TO DRIVE UP TO MY COUSIN'S.

LESTER, EVERYBODY KNOW THAT YOUR COUSIN AIN'T YOUR COUSIN,

AND IF SHE IS, YOU NEED TO SPEND MORE TIME IN CHURCH.

- WELL, IN SPITE OF YOUR BEING TWO WEEKS BEHIND

ON THE CHURCH BUDGET

AND YOUR CALLOUS DISREGARD FOR THE WORD,

YOU SOMEHOW MANAGED TO GET YOURSELF NOMINATED

FOR THE GIFT OF DIVINITY AWARD THIS YEAR.

- WHAT?

- I'M GETTING A GODDY?

- BABY, A GODDY.

HA HA!

- BABE, THIS IS THE HIGHEST HONOR

TO BE BESTOWED UPON A MAN OF THE CLOTH.

- YOU HAVEN'T WON ANYTHING YET.

AND DON'T GET YOUR HOPES UP TOO HIGH.

NOW, YOU'RE A FIRST-TIME NOMINEE,

AND ROOKIES NEVER WIN.

both: EXCEPT...

- ME.

I WON EVERY YEAR FROM '82 TO '98,

AND THEN I JUST TOOK MYSELF OUT OF THE RUNNING,

DIDN'T SEEM FAIR TO THE LESSER PASTORS.

[laughs]

- WELL, DAD, THIS LESSER PASTOR IS ABOUT TO WIN,

BECAUSE I'M NOT LESSER.

I AM MORE-ER.

- YOU BETTER HURRY, PASTOR.

IN ORDER TO ACCEPT THIS NOMINATION,

YOU NEED TO TURN THIS PAPERWORK IN BY 2:00 TODAY.

- WOW, THOSE GODDY PEOPLE, THEY DON'T MESS AROUND, DO THEY?

HEY, BABE, LOOK, I GOT TO GET ON THIS, SO...

both: RAIN CHECK.

- ON TYLER PERRY?

- OKAY, I'LL JUST GO

HANG OUT AT THE MALL,

AND YOU CAN MAKE YOUR RAIN CHECK OUT TO CASH.

- HOLD ON, NOW.

I DON'T HATE A TYLER PERRY MOVIE.

- OH, YOU KNOW WHAT?

THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.

JUST--JUST TAKE DAD.

- YOU KNOW, NORMALLY I'D FIND A MAN IN A HOUSE DRESS

A LITTLE UNPLEASANT.

BUT WHEN TYLER DOES IT, IT'S SOMETHING MAGICAL.

[Mouths "You owe me."]

[soul music]

♪

- STAMPS, WHAT DO YOU THINK?

SHOULD I HAVE A CASE BUILT FOR MY GODDY

OR JUST GO SIMPLE, YOU KNOW, LIKE, PUT IT ON THE MANTLE

WITH A SMALL SPOTLIGHT AND A LITTLE VIDEO PRESENTATION.

- BRO, AREN'T YOU GETTING A LITTLE AHEAD OF YOURSELF?

I MEAN, YOU GOT TO WIN THIS THING FIRST.

NOW, THERE ARE THOUSANDS

OF CHURCH VOTING MEMBERS IN ST. LOUIS,

AND WE GOT TO REACH THEM IN LESS THAN A WEEK.

SO WHO CAN WE COUNT ON?

- WELL, I MEAN, WE GOT ALL OF MY PODCAST SUBSCRIBERS.

- OKAY, SO THAT'S SIX VOTES.

- ALL RIGHT, THERE'S THE MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH.

THEN THERE'S THE CHOIR,

WHO IS ALWAYS SINGING MY PRAISES.

♪ WHOO

- THAT'S NEVER AS CLEVER AS YOU THINK IT IS, BOYCE.

- AH.

- LOOK, YOU GOT TO SEND OUT A SOCIAL MEDIA BLITZ,

GET ON FACEBOOK, TWITTER, INSTAGRAM, TUMBLR.

I'LL EVEN HELP YOU MAKE VIDEOS.

- LOOK, I MADE VIDEOS FOR THE INTERNET BEFORE.

YOU REMEMBER EVERY YEAR WHEN DADDY GOES TO WAR

WITH THE SQUIRRELS IN THE FRONT YARD?

WELL, I DOCUMENT IT.

ALL THIS INTERNET STUFF IS COOL, BUT YOU KNOW ME.

I LIKE FOR MY WORK TO SPEAK FOR ITSELF.

- YEAH, THAT'S A GREAT IDEA.

IT WORKED OUT SO WELL FOR YOU IN '93.

- DON'T YOU SAY IT.

- AND THE GRAMMY GOES TO...

- AL JARREAU.

- I HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE TO THANK,

BUT I WANT TO START BY TELLING YOU ABOUT

AN AMAZING MOMENT IN MY LIFE.

- HOLD ON, AL.

I'MA LET YOU FINISH.

FIRST, I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I HAD THE BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR.

- COME ON, LUTHER, THIS ISN'T THE PLACE.

- I'M NOT VANDROSS.

I'M THE VOICE, DAMN IT.

I WAS ROBBED.

Y'ALL HAD A PART IN IT.

HEY, PAULA ABDUL.

ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE TAKING THOSE WITH LIQUOR, BABY?

HEY, LOOK, MY NEW ALBUM HITS THE FLOOR APRIL 3RD.

GO TO BED, LYRIC!

[laughs]

- THE POINT IS, AL JARREAU DID IT RIGHT, OKAY?

HE WENT ON THE ROAD.

HE TOOK OUT ADS.

HE GOT HIS FACE IN FRONT OF PEOPLE.

- I WANT MY GODDY.

I DESERVE MY GODDY.

I GUESS I'LL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES,

EVEN IF IT MEANS SINKING TO THE LEVELS OF AL JARREAU.

- SO, LISTEN, I ORDERED SOME STUFF ONLINE,

AND I'M HAVING IT DELIVERED HERE, OKAY?

- WHAT IS IT?

- OH, JUST STUFF.

- OKAY, WELL, YOU'RE ENTITLED TO YOUR PRIVACY.

I'LL JUST OPEN IT WHEN IT GETS HERE.

- FINE, IT'S JUST SOME SHOES AND SOME OUTFITS

AND A STRIPPER POLE.

- A STRIPPER POLE?

- SHH!

- OH, SWEETIE.

DON'T GET A SECOND JOB.

JUST MAKE STAMPS PAY RENT.

- NO.

IT IS FOR STAMPS.

SEE, I'VE BEEN TAKING THESE STRIPPER-CISE CLASSES.

- WHAT?

- AND IT IS TIME FOR LIMBER KIMBER

TO MAKE HER DEBUT.

- YOU ARE BAD!

- WELL, YOU KNOW HOW NEW LOVE IS.

WE ARE ALWAYS SENDING EACH OTHER,

YOU KNOW, SEXY TEXTS.

IF I DON'T GET AT LEAST THREE PICTURES A DAY

OF STAMPS' JUNK, SOMETHING'S WRONG.

OH, COME ON.

YOU REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS LIKE.

JUST THINK WAY-AY-AY BACK

TO WHEN YOU AND BOYCE USED TO BE SPONTANEOUS AND FREAKY?

- WHAT YOU MEAN WAY BACK?

BOYCE AND I STILL GET IT IN.

OKAY, WE GO TO SEXY MOVIE DATES, ROMANTIC PICNICS.

WE'RE GOING TO A JAZZ FESTIVAL THIS WEEKEND.

- OH, I KNOW.

I VOLUNTEERED AT THE SENIOR CENTER.

THEY WOULDN'T SHUT UP ABOUT IT.

- LET ME LET YOU KNOW SOMETHING, MISS KIMBERLY.

THAT IS ROMANTIC.

BOYCE AND I WENT ON OUR FIRST DATE TO A JAZZ FESTIVAL,

AND WE'VE BEEN GOING EVERY YEAR EVER SINCE.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT?

WE END UP JUST LIKE YOU AND STAMPS.

[phone vibrating]

- [laughs]

- STAMPS JUST SENT YOU ANOTHER PICTURE OF HIS JUNK, DIDN'T HE?

- HE THINKS HE DID, BUT IT'S HIS THUMB.

- KEEP YOUR NUTS OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY!

DON'T ACT LIKE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND ME.

I'LL MAKE A HAT OUT OF YOU.

THAT'S MY FAVORITE PART RIGHT THERE.

[doorbell rings]

- I GOT IT.

HEY, LESTER.

BLACK IS SLIMMING ON YOU, BRO.

- LESTER, HERE'S A QUESTION.

WHY ARE YOU DRESSED LIKE HAPPY FEET?

- I WAS OVER AT ST. CATHERINE'S

SCOPING OUT YOUR GODDY COMPETITION.

I JUST WANTED TO BLEND IN.

- WELL, COULDN'T YOU HAVE DRESSED LIKE A PRIEST?

- RIGHT, RIGHT, LIKE I GOT A PRIEST OUTFIT

JUST LAYING AROUND MY HOUSE.

- YOU RIGHT. MY BAD.

I'M SORRY, SISTER.

WHAT'D YOU FIND OUT?

- THE KEY WORD THIS YEAR IS "BRANDING."

BISHOP JOHNSON IS CALLING HIMSELF

THE MESSIAH OF MATRIMONY.

REVEREND WATERS IS THE SHEPHERD OF GOD'S CHILDREN.

AND FATHER THOMPSON IS CALLING HIMSELF

THE LORD'S HUMBLE SERVANT.

- WHOA, HE CAN'T BE THAT.

WE'RE ALL HUMBLE.

I'M THE BEST AT THAT.

- YO, BRO, WHAT YOU NEED IS A BRAND, MAN.

YEAH, I MEAN, MAYBE YOU CAN

HIGHLIGHT YOUR WORK WITH EX-CONS.

EXPAND YOUR SECOND CHANCE MINISTRY BY GOING INTO PRISONS.

- YOU KNOW WHAT, STAMPS?

THAT'S NOT BAD.

I CAN TOUCH THE HEARTS OF MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS

BEFORE THEY ARE RELEASED

INTO THE COLD, HARD REALITIES OF LIFE ON THE OUTSIDE.

YOU KNOW WHAT, THAT'S GOOD; TWEET THAT.

- I'M WAY AHEAD OF YOU.

"BOYCE BALLENTINE TOUCHES PRISONERS."

- WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WAIT, WAIT!

- YOU EVER STEP BAREFOOT ON HALF A HICKORY NUT?

AND YOU CAN JUST HEAR 'EM UP IN THE TREES SNICKERING.

- THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME WITH THE BAGS, BARTON.

BOYCE, AM I GONNA HAVE TO START LAYING OUT YOUR CLOTHES AGAIN?

- GOOD LORD, SON, WHO ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE,

TUPAC INSECURE?

- DAD, IT'S MY BRAND, ALL RIGHT?

I'M THE PASTOR OF SECOND CHANCES.

SO I'M ABOUT TO GO DOWN TO THE PRISON,

GET A LITTLE PHOTO OP IN, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

TALK TO 'EM ON THEIR LEVEL,

LET 'EM KNOW WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT,

THAT THE BIBLE IS A REAL BOOK, HOMIE.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYIN'?

LIKE, IF YOU GONNA GET BAPTIZED,

AND YOU GO UP UNDER THAT WATER, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

ONCE YOU GO UP UNDER THAT WATER,

YOU KNOW, YOU COME UP MORE THAN JUST REFRESHED.

YOU BE REBORN, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

- I GOT TO CALL STAMPS AND TELL HIM HE'S MY FAVORITE.

- BOYCE, I'M CONFUSED.

HOW CAN YOU BE AT THE PRISON

IF YOU'RE AT THE JAZZ FESTIVAL WITH ME?

AND KEEP IN MIND,

I'M NOT AS CONFUSED AS I JUST SAID I WAS.

- I KNOW, BABE.

LOOK, I'M SORRY, ALL RIGHT?

WE'LL MAKE OUR OWN SWEET MUSIC LATER ON TONIGHT.

I PROMISE. - PROMISE?

- I PROMISE.

NOW, I GOT TO BOUNCE, ALL RIGHT?

I'LL HOLLA!

- YOU KNOW, I DON'T HATE A JAZZ FESTIVAL.

I EVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE TIME

I DANCED WITH LENA HORNE AT THE MONTEREY FESTIVAL?

- YOU TOLD ME THE FIRST TIME WE MET.

- IT WAS 1972, AND I JUST GOT HOME FROM THE WAR...

- SO, MY INCARCERATED BROTHERS,

AS IT SAYS ON THE MONEY

THAT YOU ARE SO FOND OF STEALING,

IN GOD WE TRUST.

AND I AM GONNA SHOW SOME TRUST IN YOU.

TRUST EXERCISE.

[applause]

THANK YOU.

- REVEREND, WE HAVE TIME FOR ONE MORE SHOT.

- OH, GOOD. YEAH, THAT'S GOOD.

SON, HOW ABOUT YOU?

- AWESOME, I NEVER GET PICKED.

- ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO.

- AND ONE MORE, LES.

NO, NO.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT.

- OH, SORRY, HABIT.

- OH.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

WHAT KIND OF MESSAGE WOULD I BE SENDING

IF I PREACHED TRUST

STANDING NEXT TO A MAN IN SHACKLES.

UNCHAIN THIS MAN.

- I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO,

BUT FOR BOYCE THE VOICE,

I GUESS I CAN BEND THE RULES.

- GOOD, GOOD.

SO, WHAT'S YOUR NAME, SON?

- UH, JONES, SIR.

ESCAPEY JONES.

- ESCAPEY?

YOUR NAME IS ESCAPEY.

OKAY, LESTER, COME ON.

- EVERYBODY SAY "GOOD BEHAVIOR."

- GOOD BEHAVIOR.

- OH! - WE GOT A RUNNER!

- ESCAPEY JONES, YOU GET BACK HERE!

I TRUSTED YOU.

[gunshot]

- HA! YOU MISSED ME.

[gunshot]

OKAY, YOU GOT ME THAT TIME.

- ARE THOSE RUBBER BULLETS?

OOH!

- ALL I KNOW IS, ON TUESDAY, BOYCE BALLENTINE WASN'T THERE,

AND I DIDN'T GET SHOT.

ON WEDNESDAY, BOYCE BALLENTINE WAS THERE,

AND I DID GET SHOT.

COINCIDENCE?

I THINK NOT.

- MAN THIS THING IS A NIGHTMARE.

- HEY, HEY, I WOULDN'T WORRY, PASTOR.

I MEAN, IT'S JUST ONE LITTLE VIDEO

ON THE INTERNET AMONGST MILLIONS.

I BET IT HARDLY HAS ANY HITS.

OH!

OH.

- BOYCE, WHAT IS GOING ON?

- EVERYBODY AT THE SALON IS TALKING ABOUT YOU.

- DID YOU GET A GUY SHOT? - LOLLI, COME ON.

YOU KNOW HOW THESE THINGS CAN BE BLOWN OUT OF PROPORTION

AT A HAIR SALON.

- OKAY, THEN, WHAT HAPPENED?

- I GOT A GUY SHOT.

I MEAN, NOT EXACTLY.

BUT HE WOULDN'T HAVE RUN IF I HADN'T TOLD THE GUARD

TO TAKE OFF HIS SHACKLES

BECAUSE I WANTED A BETTER PHOTO OP.

I GOT TO GO FIX THIS.

- WAIT, WHAT? NOW?

BOYCE, WHAT ABOUT OUR SEXY MUSIC DATE?

YOU PROMISED ME.

- LOOK, BABE.

I GOT TO GO MAKE THIS RIGHT WITH THIS MAN,

AND THEN I'M GONNA BE AT THE CHURCH ALL NIGHT,

DOING THE CHURCH BUDGET REVIEW.

[sighs]

I'LL HOLLA.

- I LOVED THAT LAST PICTURE YOU SENT ME.

- OH, YEAH? - MM-HMM.

- MM-HMM.

I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER. - OKAY.

[cell phone beeps]

- YOU'RE WELCOME.

- KIM, REMEMBER WHEN I SAID ME AND BOYCE STILL GOT IT IN?

WE DON'T.

WE DON'T GET IT IN.

WE DON'T GET IT OUT.

WE DON'T GET ANYWHERE NEAR IT.

- AH, COME ON.

YOU GUYS STILL MAKE TIME FOR EACH OTHER.

WHAT ABOUT YOUR MOVIES AND YOUR JAZZ CONCERTS?

I DID ALL THAT STUFF WITH BARTON.

BOYCE IS SO BUSY,

AND IT'S NOT JUST THE GODDY STUFF.

IT'S ALL THE STUFF AT THE CHURCH.

IT'S LIKE THE CHURCH IS THE OTHER WOMAN

EXCEPT I CAN'T CUSS IT OUT AND KEY ITS CAR.

- YOU KNOW WHAT?

YOU NEED TO SHOW THAT MAN WHAT HE'S MISSING?

- OH, KIM, STOP.

I CANNOT TAKE NAKED PICTURES FOR MY PASTOR HUSBAND.

AND BESIDES, YOU CAN'T SQUEEZE ALL THIS GOODNESS

INTO A FOUR-INCH SCREEN.

- WELL, YOU NEED TO FIND SOME WAY TO GET HIS ATTENTION.

[doorbell rings]

- RIGHT, BUT I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

[sighs]

- I'VE GOT A DELIVERY FOR KIMBERLY TAYLOR.

- I NEED GOD TO GIVE ME A SIGN.

- ENJOY YOUR STRIPPER POLE.

- KIM?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS?

THIS IS DIVINE STRIPPER-VENTION.

I NEED TO PUT MY SOUL ON YOUR POLE TO GET MY MAN BACK.

- ALL I'M SAYING IS THAT I FORGOT WHAT WAS IMPORTANT.

NOW, I THOUGHT I WANTED TO

MINISTER TO PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF,

BUT REALLY ALL I WANTED WAS AN AWARD,

AND I TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THAT.

BUT I DIDN'T GET YOU SHOT.

THAT'S ON YOU.

- I NEVER EVEN CONSIDERED THE POSSIBILITY

THAT THIS WAS MY FAULT.

I MEAN, I'VE ALWAYS BLAMED MY PROBLEMS ON OTHER PEOPLE,

YOU KNOW, THE STORE CLERK THAT WOULDN'T GIVE ME THE MONEY...

- OKAY.

- CAB DRIVER THAT WOULDN'T GIVE ME THE MONEY,

BANK TELLER THAT WOULDN'T GIVE ME THE MONEY.

- YEAH, I'M STARTING TO SEE A PATTERN HERE.

- PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE TO GIVE YOU THE MONEY.

- REALLY?

THAT'S THE ONLY MESSAGE YOU GOT OUT OF THIS?

- OKAY, OKAY.

I'VE SEEN NOW HOW THIS MIGHT'VE BEEN PARTLY M--

ALL MY FAULT.

- THERE YOU GO, SEE?

THERE YOU GO.

THAT'S A START RIGHT THERE.

YOU KNOW, MAYBE ONE DAY, INSTEAD OF ESCAPEY JONES,

PEOPLE WILL START CALLING YOU "MY FAULTY" JONES.

- MAYBE THEY WILL.

- [laughs]

OR "I DID IT" JONES.

- HA!

- OR "THE DEVIL DIDN'T MAKE ME DO IT" JONES.

[laughter]

- OH. - WHAT?

- [gasps] - WHAT'S WRONG?

ARE YOU HAVING A HEART ATTACK?

- YEP. - OKAY.

HELP!

BRING THE CRASH CART AND THE ZAPPY PADDLES!

STAT!

[glass breaking]

- ESCAPEY!

- IT'S OKAY.

I TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR MY ACTIONS THIS TIME.

- COME AND GET YOUR OFFERING, PASTOR.

[keys jangling]

[sensual music playing]

♪

HELLO, PREACHER MAN.

[screams]

BARTON! - LOLLI!

GENTLEMEN, THIS MEETING OF THE ETHICS COMMITTEE

IS NOW ADJOURNED.

I SAID ADJOURNED!

LOLLI BALLENTINE, WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO SAY FOR YOURSELF?

- CAN YOU PLEASE HAND ME MY ROBE?

IT'S OVER THERE WITH MY DIGNITY.

- MAN, I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU SAID TO ESCAPEY, BUT IT WORKED.

HE'S ALL OVER THE INTERNET TALKING ABOUT

HOW YOU TURNED HIS LIFE AROUND.

I'M TELLING YOU, BRO,

YOU GOT THIS GODDY THING ON LOCK.

- WELL, YOU KNOW, SAVING SOULS IS WHAT I DO.

I BET YOU I KNOW WHO DIDN'T SAVE A SOUL TODAY:

AL JARREAU.

[laughter]

- YEAH, MAN, I BET HE'S JUST SITTING AROUND,

SHINING HIS OLD GRAMMY.

WHO WANTS SUGAR IN THEIR TEA?

I DO.

- HEY, SON. - HEY.

- YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH YOUR WIFE.

- WELL, EVERYBODY'S GOT THAT PROBLEM, RIGHT?

HA, HA, HA!

I'LL JUST PUT THIS IN MY POCKET FOR LATER.

- I'M SERIOUS, SON.

YOU HAVEN'T BEEN SPENDING ENOUGH TIME WITH HER,

AND SHE'S LONELY.

- LONELY?

DAD, WHERE IS THIS COMING FROM?

- LET'S JUST SAY SHE BARED HER SOUL TO ME

AND LEAVE IT AT THAT.

- SHE UNDERSTANDS THE DEMANDS OF A PASTOR.

- SHE MIGHT UNDERSTAND HERE, BUT NOT HERE.

NOW, I KNOW IT'S PROBABLY MY FAULT YOU'RE HELL-BENT

ON WINNING THIS AWARD.

ALWAYS LORDING MY VICTORIES OVER YOU,

WHICH PROBABLY ISN'T RIGHT.

- I'M JUST TRYING TO LIVE UP TO YOUR LEGACY, DADDY.

- WELL, DON'T.

YOUR WORK IN THE CHURCH IS NOT THE ONLY THING THAT'S IMPORTANT.

YOUR MOTHER USED TO STAND BY ME AND NOT COMPLAIN EITHER,

AND WE JUST GREW FURTHER AND FURTHER AND APART

UNTIL ONE DAY, I WOKE UP WITH 16 GODDYS AND NO WIFE.

DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN TO YOU, SON.

- OH, YOU NEVER TOLD ME HOW YOUR POLE DANCE WENT.

WAS IT WELL-RECEIVED?

- DON'T BRING IT UP,

DON'T EVER MENTION IT AGAIN.

AND IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR YOUR POLE,

IT'S IN THE DUMPSTER BEHIND THE CHURCH.

- I WAS JUST TRYING TO--

- I SAID DON'T ASK.

- OH. - LADIES?

- HI, KIM.

EVENING, MRS. BALLENTINE.

OOH, LET'S GO.

I WANT TO GRAB GOOD SEATS BEFORE THE ORTHODOX JEWS GET HERE.

SO MANY HATS.

- HEY. HEY, BABE.

- MM.

HEY, HONEY.

IT'S YOUR BIG NIGHT.

LET'S GET YOU IN THERE AND GET THAT GODDY.

- HEY, LISTEN, LOLLI.

I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT YOU ARE

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, AMAZING WOMAN I'VE EVER KNOWN,

AND YOU'LL ALWAYS BE THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN MY LIFE.

- OKAY.

THANKS?

I FEEL LIKE YOU DID SOMETHING WRONG,

BUT I DON'T EVEN WANT TO KNOW WHAT IT IS.

- NO, I'M JUST SAYING IT

BECAUSE I HADN'T SAID IT IN A LONG TIME, SO...

- BUT, BOYCE, THE CEREMONY IS THIS WAY.

- I KNOW.

BUT OUR HOTEL ROOM...

- [gasps]

- AND THE JAZZ FESTIVAL IS THIS WAY.

HAPPY FIRST DATE ANNIVERSARY, BABE.

- OH!

I KNEW IT!

I KNEW WE STILL GOT IT IN.

HA, HA!

I GOT TO TEXT MY SISTER AND RUB IT IN HER FACE.

- OH, DID YOU SEE THAT LAST TEXT I SENT YOU?

- OH.

- YEAH.

- OH!

[laughs]

- THAT'S ALL ME, TOO.

- CONGRATULATIONS, PASTOR.

YOUR GODDY.

[applause]

- OH, MAN, THIS IS NICE.

BABE, DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS?

- I SURE DID.

CAN WE JUST MOVE IT ALONG?

- YOU KNOW WHAT?

THIS WHOLE EXPERIENCE HAS TAUGHT ME

WHAT'S IMPORTANT IN LIFE.

YOU KNOW, WHEN I FIRST THINK BACK

TO WHEN I PUT ON MY ECCLESIASTICAL ROBE--

- OH, HE'S MAKING A SPEECH.

I DIDN'T BRING THE RIGHT SHOES FOR THIS.

- SON.

I NEVER THOUGHT I'D BE SHARING

MY WALL OF FAME WITH YOU, BUT...

[applause]

- HOLD ON, DADDY.

THIS PICTURE LOOKS LIKE

ALL THE OTHER ONES THAT ARE UP THERE.

HOW'S ANYBODY GONNA KNOW THAT'S MY AWARD.

WELL, NEXT TIME ACCEPT YOUR OWN DAMN AWARD.

- CONGRATULATIONS, BRO.

- VERY NICE. - THANK YOU.

- [clears throat]

- WHO WAS-- WHO WAS THAT MAN?

AND WHY DID HE JUST WINK AT YOU?

- I BELIEVE THE MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION IS,

WHY DID BROTHER DAVIS JUST WINK AT YOU?

- BOYCE, WHY ARE YOU ASKING ALL THESE QUESTIONS WHEN--

WHEN WE COULD BE AT HOME, GETTING IT IN?

COME ON.

- ALL RIGHT.

WHOA. WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.

BABE, DO YOU THINK STAMPS AND YOUR SISTER

BEEN IN MY OFFICE AGAIN?

- YEP.

YEP.

- I'M GONNA TALK TO THAT BOY.
