00:00:12,887 --> 00:00:14,365
Hello Neil and Buzz

4
00:00:14,389 --> 00:00:18,268
I'm talking to you by telephone from the Oval Room at the White House.

5
00:00:18,893 --> 00:00:21,664
And this certainly has to be the most historic telephone

6
00:00:21,688 --> 00:00:24,691
call ever made from the White House.

7
00:00:24,899 --> 00:00:28,403
I just can't tell you how proud we all are of what you have done

8
00:00:29,154 --> 00:00:30,214
for every American.

9
00:00:30,238 --> 00:00:33,926
This has to be the proudest day of our lives and for people

10
00:00:33,950 --> 00:00:35,469
all over the world.

11
00:00:35,493 --> 00:00:39,289
I am sure that they too join with Americans

12
00:00:40,039 --> 00:00:43,042
in recognizing what an immense feat this is.

13
00:00:44,002 --> 00:00:46,689
Because of what you have done.

14
00:00:46,713 --> 00:00:50,091
The Heavens have become a part of man's world.

15
00:00:51,259 --> 00:00:54,345
And as you talk to us from the sea of tranquility,

16
00:00:56,097 --> 00:00:59,100
It inspires us to redouble our efforts.

17
00:01:00,727 --> 00:01:02,204
To bring peace and tranquility to earth.

18
00:01:02,228 --> 00:01:03,313
The whole history of man.

19
00:01:04,439 --> 00:01:12,113
All the people on this earth are truly one.

20
00:01:12,781 --> 00:01:16,141
One in our prayers of what you have done and one in our prayers that you will return

21
00:01:17,786 --> 00:01:19,096
safely to earth.

22
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,680
Thank you Mr. President. It is a great honor and privilege for us to be here representing

23
00:01:23,458 --> 00:01:25,770
not only the United States, but men.

24
00:01:25,794 --> 00:01:28,755
Of peaceable nations.

25
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,970
Ah Ya'll.

26
00:01:59,994 --> 00:02:00,304
Okay.

27
00:02:00,328 --> 00:02:03,873
Just a minute. Just go ahead

28
00:02:03,957 --> 00:02:06,960
I've got this.

29
00:02:12,590 --> 00:02:15,593
I got it.

30
00:02:39,617 --> 00:02:41,512
Ooo. You okay Granny?

31
00:02:41,536 --> 00:02:44,014
Stop asking me that.

32
00:02:44,038 --> 00:02:44,306
I could have

33
00:02:44,330 --> 00:02:47,542
had anybody bring me over here to change the battery in this darn thing.

34
00:02:48,167 --> 00:02:49,979
That darn thing is a pacemaker.

35
00:02:50,003 --> 00:02:51,021
Ain't no wristwatch.

36
00:02:51,045 --> 00:02:54,024
Well, I ain't ready to go to the other side yet.

37
00:02:54,048 --> 00:02:55,860
Not today, not tomorrow.

38
00:02:55,884 --> 00:02:57,945
And yesterday is gone.

39
00:02:57,969 --> 00:03:00,197
Will you pull your dress down, you ain't no showgirl.

40
00:03:00,221 --> 00:03:03,474
I've got to keep it up so I can high step it

41
00:03:03,892 --> 00:03:06,895
when I get to Heaven.

42
00:03:20,241 --> 00:03:23,012
There she is again.

43
00:03:23,036 --> 00:03:25,180
That ain't the same one from this morning.

44
00:03:25,204 --> 00:03:26,390
Yes it is.

45
00:03:26,414 --> 00:03:28,458
And she's bringing the good news.

46
00:03:31,210 --> 00:03:34,213
Woooh!

47
00:03:41,554 --> 00:03:42,489
I'm willing to settle

48
00:03:42,513 --> 00:03:45,516
for the full policy limit of twenty-five thousand.

49
00:03:46,392 --> 00:03:49,395
But the medicals are just under forty-five hundred.

50
00:03:50,605 --> 00:03:53,167
Let's not dismiss emotional injuries.

51
00:03:53,191 --> 00:03:58,446
I've taken that into account and only authorized to go as high as two thousand dollars.

52
00:03:59,030 --> 00:04:02,033
Do you have children?

53
00:04:02,533 --> 00:04:05,512
What would you say if he

54
00:04:05,536 --> 00:04:08,432
or she was socially active.

55
00:04:08,456 --> 00:04:10,351
12 year old,

56
00:04:10,375 --> 00:04:13,544
involved in his church who suddenly withdraws.

57
00:04:14,253 --> 00:04:17,257
He's afraid to get back in his family car again?

58
00:04:19,467 --> 00:04:22,446
Do you know the book of Psalms?

59
00:04:22,470 --> 00:04:24,198
Where are you going with this?

60
00:04:24,222 --> 00:04:27,910
Straight to the county courthouse to file a lawsuit on this innocent

61
00:04:27,934 --> 00:04:29,370
child's behalf.

62
00:04:29,394 --> 00:04:32,122
What? Yes Ma'am.

63
00:04:32,146 --> 00:04:34,625
You see, there's some of my hometown jurors.

64
00:04:34,649 --> 00:04:37,652
They still believe in that verse in Psalms.

65
00:04:37,944 --> 00:04:40,989
It says children are a give from the Lord.

66
00:04:43,032 --> 00:04:45,970
The most I can honestly do.

67
00:04:45,994 --> 00:04:47,096
Is ninety-five hundred.

68
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,560
I thank you for your honesty, ma'am.

69
00:05:37,211 --> 00:05:45,211
I write to inform you that you've been approved

70
00:05:46,179 --> 00:05:47,156
to take the Probate.

71
00:05:47,180 --> 00:05:50,266
Continuing Legal Education in Los Angeles, California. Yes!

72
00:06:05,490 --> 00:06:06,508
Hey, Miss Hattie.

73
00:06:06,532 --> 00:06:09,577
Oh. Hey there LouEster. How are you honey?

74
00:06:09,744 --> 00:06:12,747
Good. Good to see you. Oh, it's so good to see you.

75
00:06:13,581 --> 00:06:15,517
Oh honey would you do me a favor would you please give this Mrs. Big Gal for me.

76
00:06:15,541 --> 00:06:17,311
Tell her I'll be by next week to see how she's doing. Okay?

77
00:06:17,335 --> 00:06:18,479
Yes, ma'am.

78
00:06:18,503 --> 00:06:21,506
And to you Miss Mae-Dot.

79
00:06:22,131 --> 00:06:22,483
All right. You take care.

80
00:06:22,507 --> 00:06:24,026
Hey thank y'all have a good day.

81
00:06:24,050 --> 00:06:27,053
You too. Love.

82
00:06:34,811 --> 00:06:36,455
When you gonna

83
00:06:36,479 --> 00:06:37,372
get a new car?

84
00:06:37,396 --> 00:06:40,399
Will you leave me alone.

85
00:06:47,573 --> 00:06:50,594
Ooo weee.

86
00:06:50,618 --> 00:06:53,621
You know that's not what that's for. It's healing cloth.

87
00:06:54,622 --> 00:06:56,141
That's some good healing.

88
00:06:56,165 --> 00:06:58,477
Hey you still going to the Grits Festival with me?

89
00:06:58,501 --> 00:07:00,145
Hell no.

90
00:07:00,169 --> 00:07:01,522
Oh. So all of a sudden you don't like grits.

91
00:07:01,546 --> 00:07:04,399
Oh no, I like grits. And that's why I ain't going.

92
00:07:04,423 --> 00:07:06,276
What the hell are you talking about now?

93
00:07:06,300 --> 00:07:08,779
What was the last white man fest you dragged me to?

94
00:07:08,803 --> 00:07:09,571
What? The Cornbread festival?

95
00:07:09,595 --> 00:07:10,531
Right.

96
00:07:10,555 --> 00:07:14,600
Now, who in their right mind put kale and cauliflower in some goddamn cornbread?

97
00:07:14,684 --> 00:07:16,245
It don't make no damn sense LouEster.

98
00:07:16,269 --> 00:07:19,414
I'm telling you, white folk just be dropping all kind of shit in food for no reason.

99
00:07:19,438 --> 00:07:21,816
Well, you know, not everybody uses fat back and lard.

100
00:07:22,817 --> 00:07:24,419
Excuse me.

101
00:07:24,443 --> 00:07:26,171
I don't put lard in my grits.

102
00:07:26,195 --> 00:07:28,465
Just like I don't put peanuts in chicken salad.

103
00:07:28,489 --> 00:07:30,592
Raw fuckin' peanuts at that.

104
00:07:30,616 --> 00:07:31,426
Actually, Ms. Hurley's.

105
00:07:31,450 --> 00:07:33,679
Chicken Salad ain't that bad, even with the peanuts.

106
00:07:33,703 --> 00:07:35,889
Don't come cryin' to me when that shit get caught in the back of your throat.

107
00:07:35,913 --> 00:07:38,600
And you round here walk'n round like a chicken.

108
00:07:38,624 --> 00:07:41,270
Okay, now I'm truly convinced you belong on Bull Street.

109
00:07:41,294 --> 00:07:45,131
Oh, hell, if I'm going to Bull Street, Ms. Hurley and the rest of them motherfuckers

110
00:07:45,173 --> 00:07:46,483
is coming with me.

111
00:07:46,507 --> 00:07:49,677
Especially if they start dropping pimento cheese in fucking chitlins.

112
00:07:49,802 --> 00:07:51,238
Goodbye. Talking about my car.

113
00:07:51,262 --> 00:07:53,198
Get a new bike shit.

114
00:07:53,222 --> 00:07:56,225
Get fuck outta here with that goddamn bike.

115
00:07:57,894 --> 00:08:01,397
We'll check weather next meanwhile, this week is dedicated to the great Patsy Cline.

116
00:08:02,648 --> 00:08:04,334
Gone much too soon.

117
00:08:04,358 --> 00:08:07,361
I hear Gertie never made it back to Charleston.

118
00:08:07,528 --> 00:08:09,673
She's still out there on Goat Island.

119
00:08:09,697 --> 00:08:12,700
Probably sprinkling wheat germ on and pork rinds.

120
00:08:16,787 --> 00:08:17,431
You know,

121
00:08:17,455 --> 00:08:20,517
it all started when that son of hers graduated from the Citadel,

122
00:08:20,541 --> 00:08:23,669
and he went and got himself engaged to a little gal from South

123
00:08:23,753 --> 00:08:26,756
Dakota.

124
00:08:26,839 --> 00:08:28,442
Ever since he was born, Gertie,

125
00:08:28,466 --> 00:08:32,720
had the sweetest little debutante all picked out for him. But.

126
00:08:35,890 --> 00:08:38,893
Bless her heart.

127
00:08:40,269 --> 00:08:41,580
You know,

128
00:08:41,604 --> 00:08:44,649
I know what it feels like to get turned around.

129
00:08:45,233 --> 00:08:47,628
I was writing a story.

130
00:08:47,652 --> 00:08:50,214
Like Gone with the Wind.

131
00:08:50,238 --> 00:08:51,632
But I had to put it away.

132
00:08:51,656 --> 00:08:53,884
Well, after I got elected,

133
00:08:53,908 --> 00:08:55,802
Probate judges just don't have the time

134
00:08:55,826 --> 00:08:58,829
to write a great American novel.

135
00:09:05,544 --> 00:09:08,548
Afternoon, ladies.

136
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:11,777
Oh, LouEster,

137
00:09:11,801 --> 00:09:14,804
could you come over here, please?

138
00:09:15,346 --> 00:09:17,533
I have not seen you around the courthouse lately.

139
00:09:17,557 --> 00:09:18,575
Oh, well.

140
00:09:18,599 --> 00:09:19,743
Oh well, no lawsuits to file,

141
00:09:19,767 --> 00:09:22,621
thank the Lord.

142
00:09:22,645 --> 00:09:24,623
And Mrs. Big Gal. I hear she got herself a pacemaker.

143
00:09:24,647 --> 00:09:26,250
Yes, ma'am.

144
00:09:26,274 --> 00:09:28,752
About three months now.

145
00:09:28,776 --> 00:09:32,572
Will you tell her, for the sake of my grands, I would take her back.

146
00:09:32,822 --> 00:09:35,866
Because I know children are so good for the soul.

147
00:09:37,868 --> 00:09:39,888
She doesn't do that anymore.

148
00:09:39,912 --> 00:09:42,766
She only leaves the house to go to her doctor's appointments.

149
00:09:42,790 --> 00:09:45,018
Oh, well,

150
00:09:45,042 --> 00:09:49,338
you tell her that I said eat more fruits and vegetables and get plenty of sun,

151
00:09:49,505 --> 00:09:52,508
because that is the best source of vitamin D.

152
00:09:52,758 --> 00:09:55,696
I'll be sure to pass the message along.

153
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,723
Have a blessed day, ladies.

154
00:10:05,396 --> 00:10:08,024
I swear she's getting more and more plain looking.

155
00:10:09,483 --> 00:10:12,254
I mean she's solid like her grandma.

156
00:10:12,278 --> 00:10:15,281
Who I declare is like an ox.

157
00:10:15,990 --> 00:10:19,035
They just don't make em like that anymore.

158
00:10:22,830 --> 00:10:25,791
Well I pass.

159
00:10:58,324 --> 00:10:58,842
Evelyn Cody's granddaughter

160
00:10:58,866 --> 00:11:01,911
she couldn't be no more than thirty.

161
00:11:02,453 --> 00:11:05,015
You ought to be ashamed, Cousin Big-Gal.

162
00:11:05,039 --> 00:11:08,834
Every day, carrying on with that obituary section.

163
00:11:09,085 --> 00:11:12,671
Well, somebody's got to be sure our faces don't show up in here.

164
00:11:14,924 --> 00:11:17,402
LouEster you think Mr.

165
00:11:17,426 --> 00:11:19,905
Obama has an honest chance?

166
00:11:19,929 --> 00:11:23,808
He ain't particularly the same color as most of the voters.

167
00:11:24,433 --> 00:11:26,495
That definitely won't be a problem.

168
00:11:26,519 --> 00:11:27,829
No?

169
00:11:27,853 --> 00:11:30,082
No. White folks see him as his mother's child.

170
00:11:30,106 --> 00:11:32,709
Besides Harvard, gives him extra credibility.

171
00:11:32,733 --> 00:11:35,861
Well, that mother's son is still black.

172
00:11:36,112 --> 00:11:39,115
Unless you don't see what I see.

173
00:11:39,448 --> 00:11:42,552
I'm gonna be gone a long time before they let a black man come.

174
00:11:42,576 --> 00:11:43,576
President.

175
00:11:45,579 --> 00:11:48,707
Oh, look here Azell.

176
00:11:49,417 --> 00:11:51,812
Jerry Shaw. You remember him?

177
00:11:51,836 --> 00:11:53,355
Don't remember him.

178
00:11:53,379 --> 00:11:56,382
Well you wouldn't because I picked cotton with him a long,

179
00:11:58,676 --> 00:11:59,903
A long time

180
00:11:59,927 --> 00:12:02,930
ago over on Old Man Hurley's land.

181
00:12:03,139 --> 00:12:06,976
And every week he would borrow on his pay.

182
00:12:08,102 --> 00:12:10,914
Buying up honey buns.

183
00:12:10,938 --> 00:12:12,707
Oh Honey buns? Yes.

184
00:12:12,731 --> 00:12:15,585
And come payday. Old Man

185
00:12:15,609 --> 00:12:18,672
Hurley took him home, and he told his mother

186
00:12:18,696 --> 00:12:23,742
that she had to pay him cause that boy had ate up three weeks.

187
00:12:23,868 --> 00:12:26,805
Of his whole pay.

188
00:12:26,829 --> 00:12:28,056
He loved them honeybuns.

189
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,684
Grandpa.

190
00:12:30,708 --> 00:12:31,059
Old Man

191
00:12:31,083 --> 00:12:35,754
Hurley used to say the hardest loblolly cut you'll ever endure

192
00:12:36,755 --> 00:12:39,758
is the one closest to the ground.

193
00:12:42,052 --> 00:12:43,947
Bank not handing out any loans,

194
00:12:43,971 --> 00:12:46,575
correct, Millard?

195
00:12:46,599 --> 00:12:49,161
Oh, no, sir. Mortgage crisis has our hands tied.

196
00:12:49,185 --> 00:12:54,023
And. And how's talks coming along on the Reed transaction, son?

197
00:12:55,941 --> 00:12:57,002
It seems to be a holdup.

198
00:12:57,026 --> 00:12:58,628
What's the holdup?

199
00:12:58,652 --> 00:13:01,655
Ms. Leila been wanting to push forward for some time now.

200
00:13:02,698 --> 00:13:05,510
Her brother's not doing well.

201
00:13:05,534 --> 00:13:07,804
With Ben H. In charge of the farm.

202
00:13:07,828 --> 00:13:10,807
Three of my best breeding Angus heifers go missing.

203
00:13:10,831 --> 00:13:13,768
He blames it on one of the wetbacks.

204
00:13:13,792 --> 00:13:17,796
I sent you to law school and you come back kicking the can down the road again.

205
00:13:17,963 --> 00:13:20,925
Can't do one thing for your own family.

206
00:13:21,091 --> 00:13:22,027
Well. Seems

207
00:13:22,051 --> 00:13:25,054
I'll have to close the deal myself.

208
00:13:25,137 --> 00:13:27,449
Honor my daddy's wishes.

209
00:13:27,473 --> 00:13:29,534
That's family land.

210
00:13:29,558 --> 00:13:32,162
And I mean to take it back.

211
00:13:32,186 --> 00:13:34,873
Cortar!

212
00:13:34,897 --> 00:13:35,897
A chainsaw would help.

213
00:13:38,859 --> 00:13:41,862
Cortar!

214
00:13:46,909 --> 00:13:48,845
How many times you've seen this episode?

215
00:13:48,869 --> 00:13:51,872
A few. Dozen.

216
00:13:53,707 --> 00:13:56,710
Ms. Hurley's chicken salad in the fridge.

217
00:13:56,835 --> 00:13:58,837
And don't forget Bible studies tomorrow night.

218
00:14:00,172 --> 00:14:01,816
Why does she put peanuts in.

219
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,611
Chicken salad?

220
00:14:04,635 --> 00:14:07,638
And I know what day it is.

221
00:14:09,014 --> 00:14:10,200
I saw Mrs.

222
00:14:10,224 --> 00:14:12,953
Leila in the Reed plot earlier.

223
00:14:12,977 --> 00:14:15,956
You heard anything about her husband?

224
00:14:15,980 --> 00:14:17,666
He traveling.

225
00:14:17,690 --> 00:14:20,693
Got his trucks on the road for that new Walmart.

226
00:14:21,610 --> 00:14:24,130
What about her sons?

227
00:14:24,154 --> 00:14:27,157
They both in the Navy.

228
00:14:28,158 --> 00:14:31,203
I finally got approved to take my C.L.E.

229
00:14:31,579 --> 00:14:34,582
Here? In California.

230
00:14:35,291 --> 00:14:38,979
I keep telling you, if you gonna practice here

231
00:14:39,003 --> 00:14:42,590
with these white folks, then you better study here with them.

232
00:14:43,215 --> 00:14:45,819
I'm going to bed.

233
00:14:45,843 --> 00:14:48,154
But I thought you was gonna watch Gunsmoke with me.

234
00:14:48,178 --> 00:14:50,598
It's coming on next.

235
00:14:50,889 --> 00:14:53,892
Good night, Granny.

236
00:15:37,978 --> 00:15:39,664
Morning, Granny.

237
00:15:39,688 --> 00:15:42,083
Good Morning, Sunshine.

238
00:15:42,107 --> 00:15:45,069
Tonight tell Clark I send my best.

239
00:15:51,992 --> 00:15:54,995
Abraham was the ultimate dealmaker.

240
00:15:55,371 --> 00:15:57,122
Even beat God in a game of chicken.

241
00:15:59,333 --> 00:16:01,019
So when he needed a

242
00:16:01,043 --> 00:16:04,022
place to bury his wife, Sarah.

243
00:16:04,046 --> 00:16:06,900
He wanted the sacred oak grove,

244
00:16:06,924 --> 00:16:10,094
which cost him four hundred pieces of silver.

245
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,156
Who can tell me what that was.

246
00:16:13,180 --> 00:16:16,183
In exchange for?

247
00:16:18,268 --> 00:16:21,081
For the first published and recorded deed of Hebron.

248
00:16:21,105 --> 00:16:22,957
That's right.

249
00:16:22,981 --> 00:16:25,001
So, my Christian friends,

250
00:16:25,025 --> 00:16:27,629
the Bible is trying to tell us

251
00:16:27,653 --> 00:16:30,406
to stop frittering away our land.

252
00:16:31,323 --> 00:16:33,343
Think like Abraham.

253
00:16:33,367 --> 00:16:36,370
Get yourself a deed.

254
00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:38,098
Mr. Clark.

255
00:16:38,122 --> 00:16:40,725
Now, where are we supposed to find

256
00:16:40,749 --> 00:16:43,752
four hundred pieces of silver from?

257
00:16:50,259 --> 00:16:53,262
That's a good catch.

258
00:16:54,304 --> 00:16:55,281
Well you know.

259
00:16:55,305 --> 00:16:58,308
I finally got approval to take my last three hours of C.L.E.

260
00:16:59,017 --> 00:17:01,162
C.L.E?

261
00:17:01,186 --> 00:17:04,189
Continuing Legal Education.

262
00:17:04,231 --> 00:17:06,793
It's my requirement if, I want to keep practicing.

263
00:17:06,817 --> 00:17:09,212
Like doctors? Yeah.

264
00:17:09,236 --> 00:17:11,214
I've really been looking forward to taking it out in L.A.

265
00:17:11,238 --> 00:17:12,238
For some time now.

266
00:17:13,323 --> 00:17:15,719
Do you want to

267
00:17:15,743 --> 00:17:18,746
make a short vacation out of it?

268
00:17:20,289 --> 00:17:21,224
Negative.

269
00:17:21,248 --> 00:17:22,851
Been there, done that.

270
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:25,878
Los Angeles. Overrated.

271
00:17:26,211 --> 00:17:27,105
Here we go.

272
00:17:27,129 --> 00:17:28,314
New York City is, too.

273
00:17:28,338 --> 00:17:30,191
You think every city is overrated.

274
00:17:30,215 --> 00:17:33,218
What's not overrated to you?

275
00:17:34,011 --> 00:17:37,014
Berlin.

276
00:17:37,347 --> 00:17:38,074
I don't know, Slush.

277
00:17:38,098 --> 00:17:41,101
I just feel like I gotta get out here sometime.

278
00:17:41,852 --> 00:17:43,955
Why didn't you ever try to escape?

279
00:17:43,979 --> 00:17:46,982
You know I don't want Grannie to grow old alone.

280
00:17:48,275 --> 00:17:49,961
Yeah.

281
00:17:49,985 --> 00:17:51,296
Oh. Slush,

282
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:52,338
wait, I think I got a real bite.

283
00:17:52,362 --> 00:17:53,256
Get the net. Get the net.

284
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,449
Bring it in. Bring it in.

285
00:18:00,954 --> 00:18:03,349
Granny?

286
00:18:03,373 --> 00:18:06,376
You okay?

287
00:18:16,929 --> 00:18:19,932
They bringing him home.

288
00:18:20,766 --> 00:18:23,769
Be next to his momma and his daddy.

289
00:18:28,899 --> 00:18:31,902
I'll be praying for the family.

290
00:18:32,486 --> 00:18:33,797
I keep telling you,

291
00:18:33,821 --> 00:18:36,824
LouEster. Have some feelings.

292
00:18:37,074 --> 00:18:39,928
Lessen you not human.

293
00:18:39,952 --> 00:18:41,554
The man is your father.

294
00:18:41,578 --> 00:18:43,831
How?

295
00:18:44,957 --> 00:18:47,769
When he chose to be the stranger?

296
00:18:47,793 --> 00:18:50,772
You don't know what demons that man had to fight.

297
00:18:50,796 --> 00:18:51,940
Maybe not, but I know the ones.

298
00:18:51,964 --> 00:18:54,967
My Momma fought. Giving birth to me alone

299
00:18:56,093 --> 00:18:59,096
while he was off in law school, having a grand old time.

300
00:19:13,402 --> 00:19:16,381
I don't know why my dad would want to be buried in this ghost town.

301
00:19:16,405 --> 00:19:19,408
When he could have been buried next to mother in D.C..

302
00:19:21,368 --> 00:19:22,688
Because it's not his home Kendra.

303
00:19:47,352 --> 00:19:49,330
The intricacies of life

304
00:19:49,354 --> 00:19:52,858
bring us to the unquestionable abstract of reality,

305
00:19:54,318 --> 00:19:57,946
where the soul chooses the exact time and place

306
00:19:58,405 --> 00:20:01,366
that it separates from the body.

307
00:20:01,617 --> 00:20:03,386
It is not God.

308
00:20:03,410 --> 00:20:06,347
It becomes God.

309
00:20:06,371 --> 00:20:09,350
Therefore, my dad's not dead.

310
00:20:09,374 --> 00:20:12,377
He's never been more alive.

311
00:20:13,045 --> 00:20:13,521
Her highfalutin' grandmother

312
00:20:13,545 --> 00:20:16,441
probably turning over in her grave.

313
00:20:16,465 --> 00:20:19,468
The greatest man that I know, Harrison Reed,

314
00:20:19,509 --> 00:20:22,221
is right here in this room with all of us.

315
00:20:23,513 --> 00:20:26,475
Can you feel him?

316
00:20:28,310 --> 00:20:31,104
Lou. You alright?

317
00:20:32,272 --> 00:20:34,584
I'm thinking about going to Raleigh on Sunday.

318
00:20:34,608 --> 00:20:36,920
To hear Senator Obama speak.

319
00:20:36,944 --> 00:20:38,296
You wanna come?

320
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,465
Negative. It's overrated.

321
00:20:40,489 --> 00:20:41,633
You'd be closer to him

322
00:20:41,657 --> 00:20:44,034
watchin' him on the TV.

323
00:20:48,288 --> 00:20:51,059
To Harrison Reed.

324
00:20:51,083 --> 00:20:52,226
What?

325
00:20:52,250 --> 00:20:55,253
What are you talking about?

326
00:20:56,672 --> 00:20:58,066
He's my father.

327
00:20:58,090 --> 00:21:00,300
Ohhhhh. Shoot.

328
00:21:05,055 --> 00:21:05,573
You telling me,

329
00:21:05,597 --> 00:21:08,600
you one of the Black Kennedys, of Puckney?

330
00:21:09,476 --> 00:21:11,621
Well, damn.

331
00:21:11,645 --> 00:21:12,664
Rumor was Mr.

332
00:21:12,688 --> 00:21:13,688
Clark was your Daddy.

333
00:21:19,695 --> 00:21:21,446
Why didn't you go to the funeral?

334
00:21:31,331 --> 00:21:34,292
Excuse me.

335
00:21:36,461 --> 00:21:39,464
This is your father's favorite gray fedora.

336
00:21:40,632 --> 00:21:43,635
Oh, and this is Thomas Clark, Harrison's best friend.

337
00:21:43,719 --> 00:21:48,390
And this is a young, stunning me.

338
00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:52,537
Oh gosh.

339
00:21:52,561 --> 00:21:54,706
Who's the girl between you and my dad.

340
00:21:54,730 --> 00:21:56,565
Oh, that's Sadie Gibbs.

341
00:21:57,524 --> 00:21:59,210
Was she my dad's date?

342
00:21:59,234 --> 00:22:03,697
No, no, only, freshmen were required to go to the senior prom and work it.

343
00:22:04,656 --> 00:22:06,300
Yeah.

344
00:22:06,324 --> 00:22:09,137
She was my best friend at the time.

345
00:22:09,161 --> 00:22:10,304
At the time?

346
00:22:10,328 --> 00:22:12,724
Yeah. What happened?

347
00:22:12,748 --> 00:22:15,518
Well mother let her and her mother, Mrs.

348
00:22:15,542 --> 00:22:18,754
Big Gal, move into the house to take care of your grandfather.

349
00:22:19,713 --> 00:22:22,316
And mother caught Sadie stealing her Winthrop

350
00:22:22,340 --> 00:22:23,340
college ring.

351
00:22:24,301 --> 00:22:26,696
What.

352
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,197
That ring was supposed to go to Harrison's

353
00:22:28,221 --> 00:22:31,224
firstborn. You.

354
00:22:40,108 --> 00:22:43,111
Why didn't you ever tell Harrison?

355
00:22:43,195 --> 00:22:45,548
Cause the only one who could prove something like

356
00:22:45,572 --> 00:22:48,575
that was Sadie.

357
00:22:51,536 --> 00:22:53,639
You know,

358
00:22:53,663 --> 00:22:55,808
when a child loses they.

359
00:22:55,832 --> 00:22:58,186
Momma and Daddy,

360
00:22:58,210 --> 00:23:01,213
they called a orphan.

361
00:23:02,714 --> 00:23:05,151
You a teacher.

362
00:23:05,175 --> 00:23:07,779
A school teacher.

363
00:23:07,803 --> 00:23:10,656
Is there a word for when a Momma loses

364
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,683
her children? No.

365
00:23:20,273 --> 00:23:23,276
You see that tree?

366
00:23:32,285 --> 00:23:33,870
It started off a hump,

367
00:23:35,122 --> 00:23:38,125
grew slowly.

368
00:23:39,084 --> 00:23:40,061
Then the trunk

369
00:23:40,085 --> 00:23:43,130
split into two and just bushed out.

370
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,738
Every time the it rains, I come,

371
00:23:50,762 --> 00:23:54,224
Out here to make sure my child don't rise up.

372
00:23:56,184 --> 00:23:59,479
But Sadie is buried at Freedom Hill.

373
00:24:04,609 --> 00:24:07,255
Sadie was a twin.

374
00:24:07,279 --> 00:24:10,282
What?

375
00:24:10,532 --> 00:24:14,327
And like Sadie she was too pretty

376
00:24:14,786 --> 00:24:17,789
to live too.

377
00:24:22,794 --> 00:24:23,729
They both come out,

378
00:24:23,753 --> 00:24:26,756
feet first.

379
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,843
She standing on the shoulders of Sadie.

380
00:24:33,263 --> 00:24:35,199
After my mom delivered them,

381
00:24:35,223 --> 00:24:38,226
she placed them on my chest.

382
00:24:38,685 --> 00:24:42,230
And I named them Susan and Sadie.

383
00:24:44,399 --> 00:24:47,360
And just that quick.

384
00:24:47,694 --> 00:24:50,298
Susan looked up at me

385
00:24:50,322 --> 00:24:53,325
and she took her last breath.

386
00:24:56,661 --> 00:24:59,831
Ohh ohhh I cried. I cried loud.

387
00:25:01,541 --> 00:25:04,711
Fo', my Momma came and she put her hand over my mouth

388
00:25:05,170 --> 00:25:09,299
and she whispered, life goes on.

389
00:25:09,341 --> 00:25:12,302
And then she told me

390
00:25:12,594 --> 00:25:15,180
I had to get up and take care of business.

391
00:25:18,767 --> 00:25:21,770
Somehow.

392
00:25:21,811 --> 00:25:24,814
I got on my feet.

393
00:25:26,650 --> 00:25:29,653
I put Sadie in the bassinet.

394
00:25:32,822 --> 00:25:35,825
And I bought Susan out here.

395
00:25:38,787 --> 00:25:41,790
And I buried her under that tree.

396
00:25:46,753 --> 00:25:49,756
So you see Azell,

397
00:25:50,257 --> 00:25:52,818
All I'll ever be

398
00:25:52,842 --> 00:25:55,738
is right here.

399
00:25:55,762 --> 00:25:58,765
On this land.

400
00:25:59,683 --> 00:26:02,286
What are you doing Aunt Leila?

401
00:26:02,310 --> 00:26:04,956
Packing pecans for my favorite niece.

402
00:26:04,980 --> 00:26:07,500
She's so awesome, I love her. Your favorite niece? Who would that be?

403
00:26:07,524 --> 00:26:09,293
You mean your only niece.

404
00:26:09,317 --> 00:26:12,320
Oh, my only nie. Oh. That's you.

405
00:26:12,570 --> 00:26:13,381
Oh, stop that's a lot of pecans.

406
00:26:13,405 --> 00:26:14,257
Hey, honey,

407
00:26:14,281 --> 00:26:19,286
go inside. Your reflections on your father were quite courageous.

408
00:26:19,536 --> 00:26:21,264
Why thank you.

409
00:26:21,288 --> 00:26:23,641
A Harvard lawyer?

410
00:26:23,665 --> 00:26:25,768
You must be pretty smart.

411
00:26:25,792 --> 00:26:27,770
Yes, well, some of us are.

412
00:26:27,794 --> 00:26:29,397
Ben Hurley, the third.

413
00:26:29,421 --> 00:26:31,816
But everyone calls me Mayor Bucky.

414
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:32,733
Kendra Reed.

415
00:26:32,757 --> 00:26:36,344
I was a good friend of your papa back in high school.

416
00:26:37,887 --> 00:26:39,657
Mayor Bucky you should have called hmm.

417
00:26:39,681 --> 00:26:40,449
We're about to head on in.

418
00:26:40,473 --> 00:26:43,476
I realize this isn't the best timing, but

419
00:26:43,768 --> 00:26:46,330
I thought we could solidify our business matter

420
00:26:46,354 --> 00:26:49,482
while, Harrison's darling daughter's still in town.

421
00:26:49,816 --> 00:26:51,585
Business matter? What business matter?

422
00:26:51,609 --> 00:26:55,947
Why, the loblolly pine on your papa's 500 acres.

423
00:26:56,323 --> 00:26:57,466
What about it?

424
00:26:57,490 --> 00:27:00,493
Well, ma'am, they're aas good as gold.

425
00:27:00,994 --> 00:27:02,805
Mayor Bucky,

426
00:27:02,829 --> 00:27:05,832
I said this is not the time.

427
00:27:06,624 --> 00:27:09,627
Farewell.

428
00:27:09,961 --> 00:27:12,940
Enjoy your stay in the country.

429
00:27:12,964 --> 00:27:15,967
Miss, Harvard.

430
00:27:50,502 --> 00:27:53,505
How much of the loblolly is my dad's?

431
00:27:53,671 --> 00:27:55,524
Most of it.

432
00:27:55,548 --> 00:27:58,551
Mayor Bucky purchased mine a few years back.

433
00:27:58,843 --> 00:28:01,072
And what's it worth?

434
00:28:01,096 --> 00:28:01,572
A million.

435
00:28:01,596 --> 00:28:03,949
Five.

436
00:28:03,973 --> 00:28:05,534
A million five.

437
00:28:05,558 --> 00:28:07,078
I'm sorry.

438
00:28:07,102 --> 00:28:10,480
And you decided not to disclose this information to me.

439
00:28:11,773 --> 00:28:12,708
Kendra, I discussed it with Harrison

440
00:28:12,732 --> 00:28:14,877
about using the proceeds

441
00:28:14,901 --> 00:28:18,029
to make the land farmable to generate income, and he agreed.

442
00:28:19,364 --> 00:28:22,367
Okay.

443
00:28:24,577 --> 00:28:26,055
Couldn't

444
00:28:26,079 --> 00:28:29,082
they just cut around the old house?

445
00:28:29,165 --> 00:28:30,726
No. It's a liability.

446
00:28:30,750 --> 00:28:33,521
No lumber company would take a chance on that.

447
00:28:33,545 --> 00:28:35,481
Okay. Where's her daughter?

448
00:28:35,505 --> 00:28:37,900
Sadie? Yeah.

449
00:28:37,924 --> 00:28:39,443
Wait.

450
00:28:39,467 --> 00:28:42,154
The one who stole the ring.

451
00:28:42,178 --> 00:28:45,181
She died in childbirth.

452
00:28:51,479 --> 00:28:54,458
Stop it. Stop it. So tell me again tell me again what he say?

453
00:28:54,482 --> 00:28:55,501
Oh, God.

454
00:28:55,525 --> 00:28:58,820
I ain't telling you nothing. Come on you know I love a good story.

455
00:29:01,906 --> 00:29:04,885
Oh Lord. I wonder what the devil wants today.

456
00:29:04,909 --> 00:29:09,831
Mmmm Who knows.

457
00:29:15,587 --> 00:29:17,440
Good afternoon ladies.

458
00:29:17,464 --> 00:29:17,982
Mrs. Big-Gal,

459
00:29:18,006 --> 00:29:21,009
my niece Kendra would like to have a word with you.

460
00:29:21,217 --> 00:29:23,904
I understand that my aunt here has tried to explain to you

461
00:29:23,928 --> 00:29:26,931
the transactional purchase of the timber on this land.

462
00:29:27,015 --> 00:29:30,018
Well, get to it, young'un.

463
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:31,495
Okay.

464
00:29:31,519 --> 00:29:34,081
There's about an acre and a half of land down in Clarendon County

465
00:29:34,105 --> 00:29:38,526
that we're willing to purchase in exchange for you moving off this property.

466
00:29:41,946 --> 00:29:44,592
Well, like I told your aunt,

467
00:29:44,616 --> 00:29:47,660
my next move won't be on this side.

468
00:29:49,078 --> 00:29:51,056
This is my grandmother's house,

469
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,083
my family's homestead where I was born.

470
00:29:54,667 --> 00:29:56,103
You have no rights.

471
00:29:56,127 --> 00:29:58,939
Yo' daddy left me all the living

472
00:29:58,963 --> 00:30:01,925
rights I need.

473
00:30:04,260 --> 00:30:06,614
You can say anything. He's not here to speak.

474
00:30:06,638 --> 00:30:09,641
I know when is missy.

475
00:30:10,099 --> 00:30:13,102
I was there the whole time.

476
00:30:13,561 --> 00:30:17,708
When his hands trembled and his finger and toenails turned blue.

477
00:30:17,732 --> 00:30:22,028
Even fo' that when I was carrying him around like he was my own child

478
00:30:22,111 --> 00:30:25,466
and nobody knew where the hell yo Momma was.

479
00:30:25,490 --> 00:30:28,952
We're willing to provide you with more than enough to make you comfortable.

480
00:30:29,035 --> 00:30:30,012
Okay?

481
00:30:30,036 --> 00:30:33,039
The only comfort you can provide me with

482
00:30:33,206 --> 00:30:36,209
is get out of my yard.

483
00:30:38,711 --> 00:30:40,773
You two should leave.

484
00:30:40,797 --> 00:30:43,299
The offer will not stand. Now!

485
00:30:55,103 --> 00:30:55,913
You okay, Cousin.

486
00:30:55,937 --> 00:30:58,082
Big Gal? Okay.

487
00:30:58,106 --> 00:31:00,709
I'm gonna get you back over here.

488
00:31:00,733 --> 00:31:03,587
Come on. Come on.

489
00:31:03,611 --> 00:31:05,071
Let me call LouEster.

490
00:31:19,586 --> 00:31:21,021
That doctor kept me in that hospital

491
00:31:21,045 --> 00:31:24,858
for three whole days against my will too.

492
00:31:24,882 --> 00:31:28,678
Just so he can tell me that I need to come to his office to get tested.

493
00:31:29,971 --> 00:31:32,658
Well, at least we know now that it wasn't the pacemaker that contributed

494
00:31:32,682 --> 00:31:33,576
to your shortness of breath.

495
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:34,600
And dizziness.

496
00:31:39,147 --> 00:31:41,166
Why don't you get that thing fixed?

497
00:31:41,190 --> 00:31:45,194
Shoot I'm hungry!

498
00:31:46,946 --> 00:31:48,674
Come on now.

499
00:31:48,698 --> 00:31:51,242
Oh, Lord.

500
00:31:58,041 --> 00:31:58,976
Would you come on.

501
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,003
Cause that hospital food was for the birds.

502
00:32:03,254 --> 00:32:05,733
I told you I'm hungry.

503
00:32:05,757 --> 00:32:06,734
You. Come on.

504
00:32:06,758 --> 00:32:09,761
Fo' my stomach go to my back.

505
00:32:14,349 --> 00:32:15,993
You tell your little friend

506
00:32:16,017 --> 00:32:20,688
Mae-Dot to shut her mouth and put my mail in the box.

507
00:32:22,231 --> 00:32:22,916
Yeah.

508
00:32:22,940 --> 00:32:25,943
Get on now. I can get up here.

509
00:32:35,912 --> 00:32:37,121
Shoot.

510
00:32:37,997 --> 00:32:38,307
What?

511
00:32:38,331 --> 00:32:38,807
Come on.

512
00:32:38,831 --> 00:32:41,834
What? Oh!

513
00:32:43,211 --> 00:32:46,422
Oh.

514
00:32:49,008 --> 00:32:52,011
Oh Lord Jesus.

515
00:32:55,223 --> 00:32:58,726
- Granny, it's an eviction notice.
- What do you mean, eviction?

516
00:32:58,768 --> 00:33:01,330
Don't get yourself all worked up again, grannie.

517
00:33:01,354 --> 00:33:02,665
Now, look, I'm gonna go down.

518
00:33:02,689 --> 00:33:04,375
I'll read the deeds book first thing in the morning.

519
00:33:04,399 --> 00:33:07,127
All right?

520
00:33:07,151 --> 00:33:10,154
Right now you need to eat something.

521
00:33:13,700 --> 00:33:14,301
How many times

522
00:33:14,325 --> 00:33:18,287
I gotta say food ain't supposed to cook without fire!

523
00:33:28,464 --> 00:33:28,857
Okay.

524
00:33:28,881 --> 00:33:31,884
Now what you got?

525
00:33:33,219 --> 00:33:37,849
So 3000 acres was originally granted to Brad Stanton

526
00:33:38,433 --> 00:33:41,436
by the King of England in 1770.

527
00:33:42,770 --> 00:33:45,773
You mean her people?

528
00:33:45,857 --> 00:33:48,860
Yeah.

529
00:33:49,318 --> 00:33:50,254
And then Old Man Hurley

530
00:33:50,278 --> 00:33:53,281
gave the Reeds a thousand acres.

531
00:33:53,322 --> 00:33:54,883
No deed.

532
00:33:54,907 --> 00:33:56,343
Damn.

533
00:33:56,367 --> 00:33:59,096
Now it's all heirs property.

534
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,040
Look, now you're gonna have to talk to me like a motherfucking drop out.

535
00:34:03,082 --> 00:34:04,101
Because what?

536
00:34:04,125 --> 00:34:05,436
Heirs property.

537
00:34:05,460 --> 00:34:08,880
It's when land is passed down to black families without the benefit of a deed.

538
00:34:08,921 --> 00:34:09,773
Well, what that means.

539
00:34:09,797 --> 00:34:12,842
It means that the legal owners are all the heirs in common.

540
00:34:14,969 --> 00:34:15,195
Wait,

541
00:34:15,219 --> 00:34:18,323
now, you mean to tell me that the black Kennedys

542
00:34:18,347 --> 00:34:21,350
ain't had no motherfucking silver.

543
00:34:27,815 --> 00:34:30,818
Are there any pretrial motion before this court?

544
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,338
Yes. Your honor,

545
00:34:33,362 --> 00:34:36,908
the defense would like to make a motion to have this case dismissed.

546
00:34:37,116 --> 00:34:39,219
On what grounds?

547
00:34:39,243 --> 00:34:41,305
That, I am

548
00:34:41,329 --> 00:34:44,957
I am, You are what, attorney Gibbs?

549
00:34:46,250 --> 00:34:49,253
I'm an heir of Harrison Reed.

550
00:34:49,337 --> 00:34:50,981
Objection! Move to strike!

551
00:34:51,005 --> 00:34:54,008
As his daughter, I have every right to stay on this land.

552
00:34:55,384 --> 00:34:57,738
I've never seen this woman in my life.

553
00:34:57,762 --> 00:34:59,364
This is a lawyer talking.

554
00:34:59,388 --> 00:35:03,434
This is nothing more than some convoluted attempt to delay this process.

555
00:35:03,851 --> 00:35:08,523
Attorney Gibbs, are you willing to testify to that under oath?

556
00:35:09,774 --> 00:35:12,527
I am. There's your notice.

557
00:35:12,819 --> 00:35:16,239
The motion is granted, and this case is dismissed

558
00:35:16,864 --> 00:35:19,867
without prejudice.

559
00:35:24,539 --> 00:35:26,391
Now after you get grown.

560
00:35:26,415 --> 00:35:27,935
You wanna go start a riot?

561
00:35:27,959 --> 00:35:29,978
Let my child rest!

562
00:35:30,002 --> 00:35:32,940
But you can't live here without legal documents, grannie.

563
00:35:32,964 --> 00:35:35,901
I spent my whole life giving my word.

564
00:35:35,925 --> 00:35:38,821
That's all I got. The law is the law.

565
00:35:38,845 --> 00:35:41,848
And you are the child of my child.

566
00:35:42,223 --> 00:35:44,034
Go get my sweater.

567
00:35:44,058 --> 00:35:45,828
Where are you going?

568
00:35:45,852 --> 00:35:48,539
I am going to speak her.

569
00:35:48,563 --> 00:35:50,398
I nursed all her children.

570
00:35:58,823 --> 00:36:00,259
Heres a song that will never fall out of fashion. The iconic Patsy Cline.

571
00:36:00,283 --> 00:36:02,135
So I have this cousin, Lurleen.

572
00:36:02,159 --> 00:36:05,472
She's older than dirt, but she called me all the way from Iowa

573
00:36:05,496 --> 00:36:08,499
inquiring about that ancestor thing, you know?

574
00:36:08,958 --> 00:36:13,462
So I told her I'm part Irish and I'm part Scottish

575
00:36:14,338 --> 00:36:17,341
and I'm part Neanderthal.

576
00:36:18,426 --> 00:36:21,470
It just means that there's less hair on my back.

577
00:36:21,971 --> 00:36:24,974
Oh, never mind it.

578
00:36:25,266 --> 00:36:26,243
Never mind.

579
00:36:26,267 --> 00:36:27,995
Good afternoon, ladies.

580
00:36:28,019 --> 00:36:30,122
Oh, Mrs. Big-Gal.

581
00:36:30,146 --> 00:36:32,166
Well, what brings you through that door?

582
00:36:32,190 --> 00:36:35,401
I would like a word with you, ma'am.

583
00:36:38,404 --> 00:36:40,048
You know,

584
00:36:40,072 --> 00:36:41,884
if it's what I think it is.

585
00:36:41,908 --> 00:36:44,952
My hands are tied. Is it my play?

586
00:36:45,119 --> 00:36:45,637
Ma'am?

587
00:36:45,661 --> 00:36:47,890
Mrs. Big-Gal,

588
00:36:47,914 --> 00:36:50,917
It's out of my power.

589
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,003
Mrs, Motley, if you could remember,

590
00:36:54,170 --> 00:36:57,548
I gave you that power when I would look after your children.

591
00:36:58,049 --> 00:37:01,177
So you could just be who you are today.

592
00:37:05,348 --> 00:37:07,993
Good to see you out and about Mrs. Big-Gal.

593
00:37:08,017 --> 00:37:09,411
Come on over here to me.

594
00:37:09,435 --> 00:37:12,563
I've got some fresh chicken salad all made up just for you.

595
00:37:13,105 --> 00:37:16,108
LouEster.

596
00:37:21,447 --> 00:37:23,592
And who the hell puts peanuts in a chicken salad?

597
00:37:23,616 --> 00:37:25,052
LouEster!

598
00:37:25,076 --> 00:37:28,120
Come on.

599
00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:33,101
Whose play is it?

600
00:37:33,125 --> 00:37:36,128
Are you sure?

601
00:37:36,253 --> 00:37:37,648
Yes Kendra.

602
00:37:37,672 --> 00:37:40,675
Thomas Clark is the girl's father.

603
00:37:42,635 --> 00:37:44,112
Good.

604
00:37:44,136 --> 00:37:46,531
Because I've never been so unprepared

605
00:37:46,555 --> 00:37:49,558
and humiliated in my life.

606
00:37:52,478 --> 00:37:54,247
All right,

607
00:37:54,271 --> 00:37:57,274
so what are we going to do?

608
00:37:58,651 --> 00:38:00,504
I'll have to

609
00:38:00,528 --> 00:38:04,323
initiate a determination of Heirs action and force genetic testing.

610
00:38:05,074 --> 00:38:06,176
Don't you need an attorney for that?

611
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,428
I am an attorney.

612
00:38:08,452 --> 00:38:10,472
I know,

613
00:38:10,496 --> 00:38:13,499
but you're not licensed in this state.

614
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,003
I'll talk to Bucky about it.

615
00:38:17,086 --> 00:38:20,089
Mayor, Bucky is not an attorney. No,

616
00:38:20,339 --> 00:38:23,300
but Bucky owns every part of this town,

617
00:38:24,051 --> 00:38:26,405
even if he doesn't know how dumb he is.

618
00:38:26,429 --> 00:38:30,558
You're just like your grandmother, always wanting to kill a fly with a cannon.

619
00:38:33,352 --> 00:38:36,355
Daddy always said launch with a blast.

620
00:39:07,428 --> 00:39:08,155
I understand that

621
00:39:08,179 --> 00:39:11,241
you didn't attend the University of South Carolina law.

622
00:39:11,265 --> 00:39:12,617
Like what?

623
00:39:12,641 --> 00:39:15,644
95% of the lawyers in this state.

624
00:39:16,270 --> 00:39:16,997
Nope.

625
00:39:17,021 --> 00:39:19,291
Duke blue devil.

626
00:39:19,315 --> 00:39:20,542
Through and through.

627
00:39:20,566 --> 00:39:22,544
Undergraduate to law.

628
00:39:22,568 --> 00:39:25,571
South Carolina held no more charm.

629
00:39:26,697 --> 00:39:28,550
Her charm is set.

630
00:39:28,574 --> 00:39:29,634
Just that,

631
00:39:29,658 --> 00:39:34,080
she worships football, me, basketball.

632
00:39:36,082 --> 00:39:38,351
You' were that far north.

633
00:39:38,375 --> 00:39:41,378
Why come back to the Deep South?

634
00:39:43,798 --> 00:39:46,801
When you're the only son with three sisters

635
00:39:48,385 --> 00:39:51,388
somebody's got to cut the trees right?

636
00:39:52,139 --> 00:39:54,159
Are you up next to become mayor?

637
00:39:54,183 --> 00:39:57,120
Following. Let's see your great grandfather.

638
00:39:57,144 --> 00:39:58,121
Grandfather.

639
00:39:58,145 --> 00:40:00,749
And now your father.

640
00:40:00,773 --> 00:40:04,419
In the words of Lyndon B. Johnson, I can't walk and chew gum

641
00:40:04,443 --> 00:40:07,446
at the same time.

642
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,092
The probate judge what law school did

643
00:40:10,116 --> 00:40:11,343
she attend?

644
00:40:11,367 --> 00:40:14,411
She didn't.

645
00:40:16,539 --> 00:40:18,100
The state of South Carolina doesn't require

646
00:40:18,124 --> 00:40:19,844
probate judges to have attended law school.

647
00:40:21,377 --> 00:40:24,106
So what's her background?

648
00:40:24,130 --> 00:40:27,133
Court secretary.

649
00:40:27,258 --> 00:40:30,261
She was elected to the seat.

650
00:40:34,306 --> 00:40:37,309
You've got to be kidding me.

651
00:40:45,860 --> 00:40:48,863
Can you believe they're making me take a DNA test like a damn criminal?

652
00:40:49,113 --> 00:40:50,507
Well just give it to them.

653
00:40:50,531 --> 00:40:54,594
I mean, I don't have what they got, but this one and a half acres, will hold you, Grannie

654
00:40:54,618 --> 00:40:55,428
and a few little ones.

655
00:40:55,452 --> 00:40:58,140
Everything is not about you, Slush.

656
00:40:58,164 --> 00:41:00,642
Okay, so he wasn't no real daddy, okay.

657
00:41:00,666 --> 00:41:03,270
Just let it go Lou.

658
00:41:03,294 --> 00:41:03,603
I know good

659
00:41:03,627 --> 00:41:04,813
well, you ain't talking about no real daddy

660
00:41:04,837 --> 00:41:08,257
when you got two kids being raised by their mother alone in Chicago.

661
00:41:08,799 --> 00:41:09,901
All right.

662
00:41:09,925 --> 00:41:10,777
Don't go there.

663
00:41:10,801 --> 00:41:11,570
Okay?

664
00:41:11,594 --> 00:41:13,572
My kids are well taken care of.

665
00:41:13,596 --> 00:41:15,240
As if that makes it okay.

666
00:41:15,264 --> 00:41:18,434
Look, judge me all you want, but you missing my point.

667
00:41:18,517 --> 00:41:20,620
Oh, you got a point.

668
00:41:20,644 --> 00:41:22,521
All I'm saying is, Lou, look, listen.

669
00:41:23,731 --> 00:41:24,416
As if If he was your

670
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,443
daddy, he didn't love you enough while he was alive.

671
00:41:27,693 --> 00:41:30,672
So don't go making it all about his stuff now that he's dead.

672
00:41:30,696 --> 00:41:33,425
You know, you've always been a Mister know it all.

673
00:41:33,449 --> 00:41:35,135
Maybe.

674
00:41:35,159 --> 00:41:36,595
But what I do know

675
00:41:36,619 --> 00:41:41,349
is that you'll never be able to love a man fully until you stop hating

676
00:41:41,373 --> 00:41:44,335
Harrison Reed. And I will never stop hating him!

677
00:41:46,253 --> 00:41:49,840
Lou, come back! Goddamnit!

678
00:41:57,389 --> 00:42:00,392
Ive Been a.moonshing.

679
00:42:07,816 --> 00:42:11,320
Oh, jeez.

680
00:42:14,240 --> 00:42:16,760
She was actually the one that gave me,

681
00:42:16,784 --> 00:42:19,221
the name Ben H.

682
00:42:19,245 --> 00:42:21,223
Yeah, it was her.

683
00:42:21,247 --> 00:42:22,891
She means a lot to a lot of people in this town.

684
00:42:22,915 --> 00:42:26,585
She helped raise most of the people in this town.

685
00:42:26,627 --> 00:42:29,630
Seems like.

686
00:42:30,005 --> 00:42:33,008
She's um.

687
00:42:34,718 --> 00:42:37,721
She's like the,

688
00:42:40,432 --> 00:42:42,369
the matriarch of Puckney.

689
00:42:42,393 --> 00:42:45,396
If she hadn't

690
00:42:45,729 --> 00:42:48,208
been raising us pale kids.

691
00:42:48,232 --> 00:42:50,352
Her only child wouldn't have ended up on Bull Street.

692
00:42:54,947 --> 00:42:57,950
Bull Street.

693
00:43:00,911 --> 00:43:06,583
Yeah.

694
00:43:06,625 --> 00:43:07,269
Go on.

695
00:43:07,293 --> 00:43:10,296
Yes, Ma'am.

696
00:43:11,422 --> 00:43:13,566
Our crazy house.

697
00:43:13,590 --> 00:43:15,527
People

698
00:43:15,551 --> 00:43:18,405
hitting themselves in the face

699
00:43:18,429 --> 00:43:19,990
and that kinda stuff.

700
00:43:20,014 --> 00:43:23,017
You're saying her daughter was mentally incapacitated?

701
00:43:23,517 --> 00:43:26,520
It's not what I heard. See,

702
00:43:27,688 --> 00:43:29,624
a lot of people

703
00:43:29,648 --> 00:43:32,460
went in for different reasons.

704
00:43:32,484 --> 00:43:36,030
White. Blacks. Criminals and.

705
00:43:38,574 --> 00:43:41,618
People, folks wanted to hide.

706
00:43:43,954 --> 00:43:44,597
Necessary.

707
00:43:44,621 --> 00:43:46,558
In some ways.

708
00:43:46,582 --> 00:43:49,585
Unnecessary in others.

709
00:43:52,504 --> 00:43:52,897
You're saying

710
00:43:52,921 --> 00:43:55,924
the people in this ghost town knew about this?

711
00:43:57,426 --> 00:43:58,786
A few knew about LouEster's momma.

712
00:44:00,679 --> 00:44:04,099
But I'm not sure LouEster even knows.

713
00:44:08,896 --> 00:44:11,899
How do you know?

714
00:44:13,692 --> 00:44:15,462
My father's sister.

715
00:44:15,486 --> 00:44:18,489
Aunt Theresa.

716
00:44:19,865 --> 00:44:22,576
She was a nurse there.

717
00:44:27,998 --> 00:44:33,087
Then you would have the sibship. In half the sibship.

718
00:44:33,712 --> 00:44:39,927
The child only receives 25% of the chromosome pairings,

719
00:44:40,344 --> 00:44:44,390
which means it only provides you of an indication

720
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:48,769
of, more likely than not, of who the siblings are.

721
00:44:49,436 --> 00:44:50,622
So then what?

722
00:44:50,646 --> 00:44:54,066
So then the tests will likely come back inconclusive,

723
00:44:54,108 --> 00:44:58,445
and the judge will likely rule that since science could not rescue you,

724
00:44:58,695 --> 00:45:01,698
more conclusive evidence will be needed.

725
00:45:01,740 --> 00:45:03,051
What kind of evidence?

726
00:45:03,075 --> 00:45:04,427
Salt of the earth.

727
00:45:04,451 --> 00:45:08,622
Evidence of people sworn statements of who your father is.

728
00:45:08,914 --> 00:45:11,583
I don't know of anyone who can testify to who my father is.

729
00:45:13,502 --> 00:45:15,021
As your law professor

730
00:45:15,045 --> 00:45:18,549
and as your mentor, then you're going to have to hope

731
00:45:19,049 --> 00:45:22,052
that this judge does not like people like your sister.

732
00:45:27,182 --> 00:45:30,620
Let me inform you that Heirs property

733
00:45:30,644 --> 00:45:33,814
with no deed puts the land at a high risk for loss.

734
00:45:34,481 --> 00:45:36,459
How so?

735
00:45:36,483 --> 00:45:38,420
Well,

736
00:45:38,444 --> 00:45:42,114
when a property has more than one heir to it, it only takes

737
00:45:42,448 --> 00:45:45,451
one of them to want to sell it, to get their share of the property.

738
00:45:45,576 --> 00:45:48,620
And the only way to do that is to auction the land.

739
00:45:51,957 --> 00:45:54,769
So you're telling me the land that put your father through school,

740
00:45:54,793 --> 00:45:57,880
that allowed us to walk through the front doors of Puckney.

741
00:45:58,755 --> 00:46:01,759
We could lose it all.

742
00:46:02,009 --> 00:46:05,012
I mean, you had more than enough money to clear a title.

743
00:46:05,721 --> 00:46:06,721
Why didn't you?

744
00:46:09,683 --> 00:46:12,686
Well, Mayor Bucky and

745
00:46:13,854 --> 00:46:15,915
his daddy Ben Jr.

746
00:46:15,939 --> 00:46:18,126
Made the process complicated.

747
00:46:18,150 --> 00:46:21,153
It goes way back to both of our grandfathers.

748
00:46:21,195 --> 00:46:25,949
Mayor Bucky' granddaddy Old Man Hurley and Harrison's granddaddy,

749
00:46:25,991 --> 00:46:27,760
they were the best of friends.

750
00:46:27,784 --> 00:46:28,887
Even back then.

751
00:46:28,911 --> 00:46:32,247
Old Man Hurley had acres of cotton, and granddaddy had the labor.

752
00:46:33,540 --> 00:46:37,085
The Europeans at the port, Daddy would ride right along with them.

753
00:46:37,127 --> 00:46:40,547
Never trusting that Reed fella, if you know what I mean.

754
00:46:41,131 --> 00:46:44,134
Because even though he was colored the European liked him.

755
00:46:45,010 --> 00:46:47,489
Reed had the gift of gab.

756
00:46:47,513 --> 00:46:48,907
A real charlatan. If you know what I mean.

757
00:46:48,931 --> 00:46:51,934
And you think grandpa couldn't see it?

758
00:46:52,059 --> 00:46:54,954
But Old Man Hurley and Mr.

759
00:46:54,978 --> 00:46:57,874
Reed, they were partners.

760
00:46:57,898 --> 00:47:02,027
Oh, they stood side by side after they sold the cotton.

761
00:47:02,653 --> 00:47:04,797
They exchanged gifts.

762
00:47:04,821 --> 00:47:07,991
The Europeans gave granddaddy a pocket knife.

763
00:47:08,617 --> 00:47:11,954
A crate of mandarin oranges, In turn, he gave them pecans.

764
00:47:12,829 --> 00:47:15,099
It was Mayor Bucky's daddy, Ben Junior.

765
00:47:15,123 --> 00:47:16,851
That gave him the pocket knife, and he wanted to take

766
00:47:16,875 --> 00:47:18,853
the crate of mandarin oranges to his mother.

767
00:47:18,877 --> 00:47:19,270
It was Mr.

768
00:47:19,294 --> 00:47:22,297
Reed who insisted grandpa take the crate of mandarins.

769
00:47:22,839 --> 00:47:27,219
And when they got home, the crate was filled with Asian beetles.

770
00:47:29,012 --> 00:47:30,073
But not before the Beatles

771
00:47:30,097 --> 00:47:33,100
destroyed the timber on the land.

772
00:47:35,269 --> 00:47:38,272
And now Bucky wants not only the timber.

773
00:47:40,607 --> 00:47:43,569
But the land also.

774
00:47:48,740 --> 00:47:51,743
So you never met him, huh? No, I did

775
00:47:53,078 --> 00:47:54,597
once when I was four.

776
00:47:54,621 --> 00:47:57,624
And then, I really remember him when I was 7 or 8.

777
00:47:58,083 --> 00:48:00,186
He came by to say hi to granny.

778
00:48:00,210 --> 00:48:03,106
He say anything to you?

779
00:48:03,130 --> 00:48:05,775
I don't remember the exact words, but,

780
00:48:05,799 --> 00:48:08,802
kept going on about launching with a blast or something like that.

781
00:48:13,890 --> 00:48:16,619
You think, he know? I

782
00:48:16,643 --> 00:48:19,646
guess we'll never know.

783
00:48:22,608 --> 00:48:23,585
I just remember when he got out,

784
00:48:23,609 --> 00:48:26,612
that car was like the moon shined out of him.

785
00:48:29,114 --> 00:48:32,117
And I stayed up all night writing him this long letter.

786
00:48:32,576 --> 00:48:35,621
I got up the next morning and I ran down to his Momma's house.

787
00:48:35,871 --> 00:48:39,333
He was in the front yard with his wife and the baby

788
00:48:40,626 --> 00:48:41,311
showing her off.

789
00:48:41,335 --> 00:48:44,147
He was so proud. She was walkin, wobbling.

790
00:48:44,171 --> 00:48:47,174
It was like it was our first steps or something.

791
00:48:48,634 --> 00:48:51,637
And then I ran off and tore up the letter,

792
00:48:51,845 --> 00:48:54,198
and I never wanted to see him again.

793
00:48:54,222 --> 00:48:56,200
I hated him ever since.

794
00:48:56,224 --> 00:48:57,201
Damn.

795
00:48:57,225 --> 00:48:59,996
Just 'cause the child was wobbling. Shit.

796
00:49:00,020 --> 00:49:02,123
No, because my Momma never got the chance

797
00:49:02,147 --> 00:49:05,150
to show me off like that.

798
00:49:16,036 --> 00:49:19,164
Hey, you remember that time.

799
00:49:19,790 --> 00:49:22,793
I gave you your first perm.

800
00:49:22,918 --> 00:49:24,103
You was in the seventh grade?

801
00:49:24,127 --> 00:49:25,104
Remember that? Yeah.

802
00:49:25,128 --> 00:49:28,131
You burn the shit out of my scalp.

803
00:49:34,429 --> 00:49:34,906
That's

804
00:49:34,930 --> 00:49:37,933
when I thought you was going to be somebody big

805
00:49:38,308 --> 00:49:40,203
famous

806
00:49:40,227 --> 00:49:40,953
on TV.

807
00:49:40,977 --> 00:49:43,164
Like motherfucking Johnnie Cochran.

808
00:49:43,188 --> 00:49:46,149
Getting niggas off left and right.

809
00:49:49,861 --> 00:49:52,864
But instead, here you are,

810
00:49:53,824 --> 00:49:55,992
sitting in front of my broke down mansion.

811
00:49:59,329 --> 00:50:02,290
Burping, farting,

812
00:50:02,374 --> 00:50:04,143
beeping your horn at folks at the one

813
00:50:04,167 --> 00:50:07,170
traffic light.

814
00:50:08,004 --> 00:50:08,439
Buying boiled.

815
00:50:08,463 --> 00:50:10,817
Peanuts off the side of the road.

816
00:50:10,841 --> 00:50:14,261
Waiting on the next white man fest while playing house with slush.

817
00:50:15,470 --> 00:50:17,865
Shit, girl.

818
00:50:17,889 --> 00:50:20,368
Every year you used to talk about moving to California.

819
00:50:20,392 --> 00:50:22,036
What's your deal?

820
00:50:22,060 --> 00:50:22,787
What do you mean?

821
00:50:22,811 --> 00:50:25,814
You know damn well what I mean.

822
00:50:25,981 --> 00:50:26,874
Shit.

823
00:50:26,898 --> 00:50:30,444
You trying to stay around here or launch with a blast

824
00:50:30,902 --> 00:50:33,905
like your daddy said?

825
00:50:42,247 --> 00:50:42,974
Give me some of that.

826
00:50:42,998 --> 00:50:46,001
See, you done fucked up now, yo' ass already high. Give me my shit back.

827
00:50:46,334 --> 00:50:48,020
Shit.

828
00:50:48,044 --> 00:50:50,356
Always fucking up some shit!

829
00:50:50,380 --> 00:50:53,467
These are the glory days.

830
00:50:58,013 --> 00:51:01,016
After the bank moved.

831
00:51:01,141 --> 00:51:02,034
Sadie, Harrison and

832
00:51:02,058 --> 00:51:04,245
I used to search that safe

833
00:51:04,269 --> 00:51:07,272
determined to find a $100 bill.

834
00:51:08,857 --> 00:51:09,167
All that's in there now is client

835
00:51:09,191 --> 00:51:12,170
files and my Grannie's strongbox.

836
00:51:12,194 --> 00:51:13,779
She says it's double fireproof.

837
00:51:16,948 --> 00:51:18,426
This is a subpoena.

838
00:51:18,450 --> 00:51:21,453
They want you to testify.

839
00:51:26,792 --> 00:51:28,060
I took this picture.

840
00:51:28,084 --> 00:51:29,979
Is that right?

841
00:51:30,003 --> 00:51:33,006
Yes, ma'am.

842
00:51:34,132 --> 00:51:35,151
It was right

843
00:51:35,175 --> 00:51:39,221
after your grandmother bought Sadie the car from Old Man Hurley.

844
00:51:41,014 --> 00:51:42,200
If you look closely,

845
00:51:42,224 --> 00:51:45,227
you can see the tip of Harrison's hand.

846
00:51:47,354 --> 00:51:48,289
We were down by the lake,

847
00:51:48,313 --> 00:51:51,316
and I was taking a picture of Sadie, and he tried to jump in.

848
00:51:53,318 --> 00:51:56,321
What were they like?

849
00:51:58,156 --> 00:52:00,927
Oh, boy.

850
00:52:00,951 --> 00:52:02,762
Sadie, was

851
00:52:02,786 --> 00:52:05,831
all women rolled up into one.

852
00:52:06,331 --> 00:52:09,268
People used to stop whatever they were doing just to watch her.

853
00:52:09,292 --> 00:52:12,295
Especially when she danced.

854
00:52:15,257 --> 00:52:17,985
But incredibly,

855
00:52:18,009 --> 00:52:21,012
Sadie had only one misstep.

856
00:52:21,930 --> 00:52:22,532
And what was that Mr.

857
00:52:22,556 --> 00:52:25,559
Clark?

858
00:52:26,434 --> 00:52:29,396
She left far too soon.

859
00:52:32,065 --> 00:52:35,068
It just wasn't her time.

860
00:52:45,370 --> 00:52:47,080
I'll see you in court.

861
00:53:39,174 --> 00:53:40,985
Yes, ma'am.

862
00:53:41,009 --> 00:53:44,095
Can I ask you how long you've worked here?

863
00:53:45,096 --> 00:53:48,308
Oh, I worked here for 65 years or so.

864
00:53:49,517 --> 00:53:52,479
And did you know, Sadie Gibbs by chance?

865
00:53:53,188 --> 00:53:55,291
Sadie Gibbs?

866
00:53:55,315 --> 00:53:58,318
Yes, I did.

867
00:54:03,114 --> 00:54:06,117
Are you Sadie Gibbs' daughter from Puckney?

868
00:54:07,619 --> 00:54:10,664
Yes. Yes, I am.

869
00:54:11,164 --> 00:54:13,309
Yeah, well, your Momma was striking, like

870
00:54:13,333 --> 00:54:15,394
lightening.

871
00:54:15,418 --> 00:54:17,229
Could you

872
00:54:17,253 --> 00:54:18,397
tell me about her?

873
00:54:18,421 --> 00:54:21,383
She was always happy, always bubbly.

874
00:54:22,509 --> 00:54:23,903
Yeah.

875
00:54:23,927 --> 00:54:26,364
It's kind of a shame that she ended up here.

876
00:54:26,388 --> 00:54:29,391
Sure.

877
00:54:39,317 --> 00:54:42,046
Let me ask you.

878
00:54:42,070 --> 00:54:44,048
Would you be willing to testify

879
00:54:44,072 --> 00:54:47,075
in court if necessary?

880
00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,245
No. Not quite, Ma'am. See,

881
00:54:52,247 --> 00:54:55,101
I'm just about five months from retirement,

882
00:54:55,125 --> 00:54:58,128
and I don't want to ruffle feathers, if you can understand that.

883
00:54:58,253 --> 00:54:59,438
Yes, I understand.

884
00:54:59,462 --> 00:55:03,299
And in fact, I will personally make sure that that is not necessary.

885
00:55:05,677 --> 00:55:07,345
You and your Daddy was close weren't you?

886
00:55:08,638 --> 00:55:10,282
Very much.

887
00:55:10,306 --> 00:55:12,535
That's cause you Ms. Sadie's child.

888
00:55:12,559 --> 00:55:15,520
Your Daddy was crazy about her.

889
00:55:18,732 --> 00:55:19,732
Thank you Sir.

890
00:55:56,019 --> 00:55:59,022
All rise.

891
00:56:01,191 --> 00:56:01,500
The Court of.

892
00:56:01,524 --> 00:56:04,527
Probate is now in session.

893
00:56:04,778 --> 00:56:07,381
My name is Judge Mary-Ann Motley

894
00:56:07,405 --> 00:56:10,384
and I will be presiding over this probate matter

895
00:56:10,408 --> 00:56:14,496
an action for the determination of heirs of the late Harrison Reed.

896
00:56:15,413 --> 00:56:19,560
LouESter Gibbs, the defendant has claimed to be the child of the deceased

897
00:56:19,584 --> 00:56:23,046
Mr. Reed. In which is one proven child

898
00:56:23,088 --> 00:56:26,758
Kendra Reed has filed a motion to determine whether LouEster

899
00:56:26,841 --> 00:56:29,844
Gibbs is indeed an heir.

900
00:56:30,053 --> 00:56:34,033
Secondly, all parties involved have submitted to a DNA test

901
00:56:34,057 --> 00:56:38,561
a scientific discovery which has been rejected as evidence.

902
00:56:39,104 --> 00:56:40,623
Therefore,

903
00:56:40,647 --> 00:56:43,650
both parties have agreed to move forward with witness testimony

904
00:56:43,817 --> 00:56:47,445
and any evidence that this court deems appropriate.

905
00:56:48,071 --> 00:56:49,048
Attorney Reed.

906
00:56:49,072 --> 00:56:53,052
Please be advised that you have been admitted Pro Hac Vice under the license of Ben

907
00:56:53,076 --> 00:56:54,762
Hurley, the fourth of the state of South Carolina,

908
00:56:54,786 --> 00:56:57,789
and you will adhere to all the rules of this court.

909
00:56:58,790 --> 00:57:01,102
Wouldn't have it any other way.

910
00:57:01,126 --> 00:57:04,129
You may proceed with your opening statement.

911
00:57:11,094 --> 00:57:12,738
In support of this case.

912
00:57:12,762 --> 00:57:15,825
I will call witnesses who will provide sworn testimony

913
00:57:15,849 --> 00:57:18,852
as to the validity of LouEster Gibbs' notion.

914
00:57:19,561 --> 00:57:23,648
I will show that there is no convincing, credible evidence

915
00:57:23,773 --> 00:57:27,837
that supports this alleged parent child relationship between LouEster

916
00:57:27,861 --> 00:57:29,505
Gibbs and Harrison Reed.

917
00:57:29,529 --> 00:57:33,825
There is no birth certificate, no signage under the Uniform Parentage Act,

918
00:57:34,117 --> 00:57:37,638
which allows the father to enter his name at any point in his lifetime.

919
00:57:37,662 --> 00:57:39,682
As the father.

920
00:57:39,706 --> 00:57:42,268
Harrison Reed, never openly held out LouEster

921
00:57:42,292 --> 00:57:43,727
Gibbs as his own.

922
00:57:43,751 --> 00:57:46,754
No voluntary legal acknowledgment exists,

923
00:57:47,380 --> 00:57:50,693
and the deoxyribonucleic acid test came back inconclusive,

924
00:57:50,717 --> 00:57:54,655
which means LouEster Gibbs is unlikely to be the daughter

925
00:57:54,679 --> 00:57:57,682
of Harrison Reed.

926
00:57:59,517 --> 00:58:00,202
You knew Sadie

927
00:58:00,226 --> 00:58:01,370
Gibbs, correct?

928
00:58:01,394 --> 00:58:04,397
Yes. We were best friends when we were sixteen, seventeen years old.

929
00:58:04,856 --> 00:58:07,775
And after that? Mother caught Sadie stealing a ring. Objection!

930
00:58:10,361 --> 00:58:11,172
Relevance.

931
00:58:11,196 --> 00:58:12,548
Overruled.

932
00:58:12,572 --> 00:58:14,216
You may answer the question.

933
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:15,676
Thank you, Your Honor.

934
00:58:15,700 --> 00:58:18,679
Mother caught Sadie stealing her ring.

935
00:58:18,703 --> 00:58:21,807
Was Harrison in Puckney in the fall of 1968,

936
00:58:21,831 --> 00:58:24,834
specifically September, October?

937
00:58:25,335 --> 00:58:28,731
Well he finished his undergraduate study at the University of South Carolina.

938
00:58:28,755 --> 00:58:31,758
And he left at the end of August for law school.

939
00:58:32,300 --> 00:58:35,237
He didn't come back.

940
00:58:35,261 --> 00:58:38,264
Had you ever seen Sadie and Harrison out in public?

941
00:58:39,265 --> 00:58:42,268
Only when he gave us a ride to school.

942
00:58:43,686 --> 00:58:46,248
No further questions.

943
00:58:46,272 --> 00:58:49,275
You may cross LouEster.

944
00:58:55,615 --> 00:58:56,717
Good afternoon, Mrs.

945
00:58:56,741 --> 00:58:57,676
Anderson.

946
00:58:57,700 --> 00:59:00,638
You mentioned Sadie Gibbs stole a ring.

947
00:59:00,662 --> 00:59:03,432
Yes she did.

948
00:59:03,456 --> 00:59:06,268
And how do you know this to be true?

949
00:59:06,292 --> 00:59:08,687
Mother told me,

950
00:59:08,711 --> 00:59:09,939
Your honor,

951
00:59:09,963 --> 00:59:12,358
May I ask that Leila Anderson's testimony

952
00:59:12,382 --> 00:59:15,385
be stricken from the record for hearsay?

953
00:59:16,552 --> 00:59:18,739
Strike this testimony from the record.

954
00:59:18,763 --> 00:59:20,014
Y'all excuse Mrs. Anderson.

955
00:59:34,362 --> 00:59:35,756
Mr. Clark,

956
00:59:35,780 --> 00:59:40,719
did you spend intimate time with Sadie Gibbs in the fall of 1968,

957
00:59:40,743 --> 00:59:43,788
when LouEster Gibbs was conceived?

958
00:59:54,966 --> 00:59:58,845
She let me lay in her arms once

959
01:00:00,430 --> 01:00:01,865
when she took pity on me.

960
01:00:01,889 --> 01:00:05,661
Your honor, I ask that Thomas Clark be required to submit to genetic

961
01:00:05,685 --> 01:00:08,813
testing to determine if he is the actual father of the defendant.

962
01:00:08,855 --> 01:00:10,499
Objection.

963
01:00:10,523 --> 01:00:12,835
Defendant requests to examine the witness further.

964
01:00:12,859 --> 01:00:15,862
Overruled.

965
01:00:18,698 --> 01:00:20,926
I order said witness Thomas Clark

966
01:00:20,950 --> 01:00:23,846
to submit to expedited three day genetic

967
01:00:23,870 --> 01:00:26,873
testing at the cost of this court.

968
01:00:27,999 --> 01:00:29,351
We are adjourned

969
01:00:29,375 --> 01:00:32,378
until results can be determined.

970
01:00:41,596 --> 01:00:44,599
My divorce came through.

971
01:01:10,083 --> 01:01:13,086
The air smells sweet out here tonight.

972
01:01:23,638 --> 01:01:26,641
Yeah it do.

973
01:01:27,934 --> 01:01:30,079
They give results back on Clark yet?

974
01:01:30,103 --> 01:01:31,914
The Old Testament thumping.

975
01:01:31,938 --> 01:01:32,956
Jew loving

976
01:01:32,980 --> 01:01:35,108
Clark is not the daddy.

977
01:01:36,484 --> 01:01:38,379
What a surprise.

978
01:01:38,403 --> 01:01:41,382
And how is Miss Harvard holding in Puckney's.

979
01:01:41,406 --> 01:01:42,800
Scales of justice?

980
01:01:42,824 --> 01:01:44,718
Too big for her northern britches,

981
01:01:44,742 --> 01:01:48,389
I must say. Vanity of vanities.

982
01:01:48,413 --> 01:01:52,500
Yeah, well, God's got a way of putting people in their place.

983
01:01:53,584 --> 01:01:57,004
Most important thing for us is to all stay focused.

984
01:01:57,630 --> 01:02:00,526
Timber on the land is where heaven is.

985
01:02:00,550 --> 01:02:03,695
My daddy used to say it's where the Lord himself goes to breathe

986
01:02:03,719 --> 01:02:04,822
and get away from man.

987
01:02:04,846 --> 01:02:07,849
And then annoying angels.

988
01:02:08,474 --> 01:02:10,911
LouEster understands the meaning of Holy Land.

989
01:02:10,935 --> 01:02:12,454
Miss. Harvard will give it up.

990
01:02:12,478 --> 01:02:15,481
Squeaking about reparations.

991
01:02:15,982 --> 01:02:17,709
That's family land.

992
01:02:17,733 --> 01:02:20,629
And I'm mean to take it back.

993
01:02:20,653 --> 01:02:22,131
Make things clear to Mary-Ann.

994
01:02:22,155 --> 01:02:24,383
Oh, she's very clear on that.

995
01:02:24,407 --> 01:02:25,884
Very clear.

996
01:02:25,908 --> 01:02:26,760
How's she doing?

997
01:02:26,784 --> 01:02:29,763
As president of the UDC?

998
01:02:29,787 --> 01:02:31,807
Loving every minute of it.

999
01:02:31,831 --> 01:02:33,040
Okay, kid.

1000
01:02:35,460 --> 01:02:38,463
I've been meaning to ask you something, sir.

1001
01:02:38,629 --> 01:02:40,149
Go on.

1002
01:02:40,173 --> 01:02:42,609
What's the difference between the the daughters

1003
01:02:42,633 --> 01:02:46,053
of the Confederacy and the daughters of the Revolution?

1004
01:02:46,804 --> 01:02:49,116
Simple. One we won.

1005
01:02:49,140 --> 01:02:52,143
And, one we lost.

1006
01:03:01,819 --> 01:03:04,822
Not like.

1007
01:03:06,157 --> 01:03:08,177
My sin

1008
01:03:08,201 --> 01:03:11,138
has been great.

1009
01:03:11,162 --> 01:03:13,682
And my spirit low

1010
01:03:13,706 --> 01:03:16,709
for most of my life.

1011
01:03:16,918 --> 01:03:19,563
I've repented,

1012
01:03:19,587 --> 01:03:21,440
and I ask God for forgiveness.

1013
01:03:21,464 --> 01:03:24,467
A thousand times over.

1014
01:03:25,134 --> 01:03:28,137
I realize, even as a hear myself,

1015
01:03:28,596 --> 01:03:30,199
that I

1016
01:03:30,223 --> 01:03:33,226
may be asking too much of you.

1017
01:03:33,809 --> 01:03:34,495
What is it, Mr.

1018
01:03:34,519 --> 01:03:37,522
Clarke?

1019
01:03:54,205 --> 01:03:57,643
I was the one who told Harrison's

1020
01:03:57,667 --> 01:04:02,004
mother about his and Sadie's plans

1021
01:04:03,172 --> 01:04:05,984
to be together.

1022
01:04:06,008 --> 01:04:08,970
To leave together.

1023
01:04:10,179 --> 01:04:11,615
Neil and Buzz

1024
01:04:11,639 --> 01:04:15,643
I'm talking to you by telephone from the oval room at the white House.

1025
01:04:16,102 --> 01:04:19,230
And this certainly has to be the most historic telephone call

1026
01:04:19,772 --> 01:04:20,940
ever made to the White House.

1027
01:04:22,108 --> 01:04:24,086
I just can't tell you how proud we all are

1028
01:04:24,110 --> 01:04:27,280
for what you have done for every American.

1029
01:04:27,697 --> 01:04:30,700
This has to be the proudest day of our lives.

1030
01:04:30,825 --> 01:04:32,844
For people all over the world.

1031
01:04:32,868 --> 01:04:34,721
I am sure that they too join

1032
01:04:34,745 --> 01:04:37,224
with Americans

1033
01:04:37,248 --> 01:04:40,251
in recognizing what an immense feat this is.

1034
01:04:41,168 --> 01:04:44,255
Because of what you have done the heavens.

1035
01:04:45,047 --> 01:04:48,926
Have become a part of man's world Peaceable nations,

1036
01:04:50,177 --> 01:04:53,139
Men with an interest and a curiosity

1037
01:04:53,598 --> 01:04:56,601
and men with a vision for the future.

1038
01:04:57,810 --> 01:05:00,813
And thank you very much. Mother,

1039
01:05:02,023 --> 01:05:05,026
what are you doing here?

1040
01:05:08,613 --> 01:05:11,616
Sadie's not coming.

1041
01:05:14,201 --> 01:05:15,679
What do you mean?

1042
01:05:15,703 --> 01:05:17,889
How do you know this?

1043
01:05:17,913 --> 01:05:20,916
Thomas Clarke?

1044
01:05:22,752 --> 01:05:24,813
Where is she?

1045
01:05:24,837 --> 01:05:26,189
Ask Thomas.

1046
01:05:26,213 --> 01:05:29,216
They look happy.

1047
01:05:30,593 --> 01:05:31,987
You tried this before.

1048
01:05:32,011 --> 01:05:33,989
Okay. Just stop.

1049
01:05:34,013 --> 01:05:34,865
I'm gonna

1050
01:05:34,889 --> 01:05:36,825
marry her. And raise another man's child.

1051
01:05:36,849 --> 01:05:39,244
You never stop.

1052
01:05:39,268 --> 01:05:41,312
Son, they're having a baby.

1053
01:05:42,647 --> 01:05:43,624
He's set to marry her.

1054
01:05:43,648 --> 01:05:46,293
It's all over town.

1055
01:05:46,317 --> 01:05:49,320
They were meant to be.

1056
01:06:04,377 --> 01:06:07,380
Pull yourself together.

1057
01:06:10,216 --> 01:06:13,219
A woman of your own kind.

1058
01:06:14,637 --> 01:06:16,365
Will make you happy for the rest of life.

1059
01:06:16,389 --> 01:06:17,115
But she.

1060
01:06:17,139 --> 01:06:17,741
She's.

1061
01:06:17,765 --> 01:06:20,768
Don't be a fool.

1062
01:06:21,394 --> 01:06:24,397
Your grandfather went off to the First War.

1063
01:06:25,064 --> 01:06:26,333
And your father in World War two.

1064
01:06:26,357 --> 01:06:29,819
Just so you can sit at the same table with men

1065
01:06:30,069 --> 01:06:33,006
of greatness and power.

1066
01:06:33,030 --> 01:06:35,991
So don't you dare miss that train.

1067
01:06:44,917 --> 01:06:49,004
Go!

1068
01:07:04,103 --> 01:07:07,106
Harrison never spoke to me.

1069
01:07:08,107 --> 01:07:10,419
Or Sadie

1070
01:07:10,443 --> 01:07:13,404
ever again.

1071
01:07:27,126 --> 01:07:30,129
I could testify in court about it.

1072
01:07:30,421 --> 01:07:33,424
Sadie was never with anyone except Harrison.

1073
01:07:34,133 --> 01:07:37,136
They were secretly engaged.

1074
01:07:47,438 --> 01:07:49,332
He put you on the bench.

1075
01:07:49,356 --> 01:07:51,126
He kept me on as manager of the bank.

1076
01:07:51,150 --> 01:07:53,420
Even when they wanted to blame me for the crisis.

1077
01:07:53,444 --> 01:07:55,756
He doesn't own me. I'll be fair.

1078
01:07:55,780 --> 01:07:57,114
You'll be fair to Mayor Bucky.

1079
01:07:59,033 --> 01:08:00,844
He's not God, Millard.

1080
01:08:00,868 --> 01:08:04,288
Oh, turning you into a judge was pretty miraculous.

1081
01:08:12,129 --> 01:08:15,466
Look, Annie, you remember how hard it was

1082
01:08:15,925 --> 01:08:18,886
when I first brought you down here from Iowa,

1083
01:08:19,303 --> 01:08:21,490
you were looked down upon.

1084
01:08:21,514 --> 01:08:24,517
Nobody would hire you.

1085
01:08:24,558 --> 01:08:27,412
We got it pretty good now, don't we?

1086
01:08:27,436 --> 01:08:30,439
We owe him.

1087
01:08:36,987 --> 01:08:37,422
That's the plan.

1088
01:08:37,446 --> 01:08:39,925
I'm calling her.

1089
01:08:39,949 --> 01:08:42,010
But we're not losing.

1090
01:08:42,034 --> 01:08:43,261
In the real world,

1091
01:08:43,285 --> 01:08:46,306
I didn't get my reputation just by winning cases.

1092
01:08:46,330 --> 01:08:46,473
Okay.

1093
01:08:46,497 --> 01:08:49,500
There's an art to decimating the other side.

1094
01:08:53,295 --> 01:08:54,106
But I told you what she means to this town.

1095
01:08:54,130 --> 01:08:57,132
And to me. I'm sorry.

1096
01:08:57,466 --> 01:09:00,427
Last time I checked, you have a mother.

1097
01:09:01,262 --> 01:09:04,074
Attorney Reed, you may call your next witness.

1098
01:09:04,098 --> 01:09:04,908
Your honor,

1099
01:09:04,932 --> 01:09:07,369
it has come to my attention that an additional witness, Mrs.

1100
01:09:07,393 --> 01:09:10,038
Susannah Gibbs, is instrumental to this case.

1101
01:09:10,062 --> 01:09:13,065
Objection. My granny is in poor health.

1102
01:09:14,191 --> 01:09:17,194
The court grant the request.

1103
01:09:18,153 --> 01:09:19,506
Have the subpoena served and Mrs.

1104
01:09:19,530 --> 01:09:23,426
Susannah Gibbs to appear in this courtroom tomorrow morning at 10

1105
01:09:23,450 --> 01:09:26,453
a.m..

1106
01:09:31,375 --> 01:09:31,852
Only.

1107
01:09:31,876 --> 01:09:34,229
Judge, I'm looking forward to standing in front of,

1108
01:09:34,253 --> 01:09:37,256
sits on a throne, not a bench.

1109
01:09:37,423 --> 01:09:40,426
It could help if you told the truth.

1110
01:09:40,467 --> 01:09:43,470
To the whitefolk in they courthouse.

1111
01:09:44,221 --> 01:09:47,534
All they do is lie especially there They're not all the same, Grannie.

1112
01:09:47,558 --> 01:09:50,203
They are in these parts.

1113
01:09:50,227 --> 01:09:54,398
What about that little 14 year old boy Stinney from Alcolu.

1114
01:09:55,024 --> 01:09:58,003
He didn't even get a chance to speak his truth.

1115
01:09:58,027 --> 01:09:59,504
That was in 1944.

1116
01:09:59,528 --> 01:10:00,463
It's a different time.

1117
01:10:00,487 --> 01:10:03,133
He could have been my brother!

1118
01:10:03,157 --> 01:10:05,510
Different time. Child

1119
01:10:05,534 --> 01:10:08,954
these white folk got a privilege

1120
01:10:09,121 --> 01:10:12,124
that even the devil can't take away.

1121
01:10:23,219 --> 01:10:24,446
It is with regret

1122
01:10:24,470 --> 01:10:27,473
that my grannie will not be joining us today.

1123
01:10:28,307 --> 01:10:32,019
Well, you know, I have no other choice than to issue a warrant.

1124
01:10:32,311 --> 01:10:33,312
How are you doing?

1125
01:10:34,396 --> 01:10:37,399
Good to see you.

1126
01:10:40,027 --> 01:10:43,030
Look at you. Looking good.

1127
01:10:43,948 --> 01:10:46,343
Hi Darling,

1128
01:10:46,367 --> 01:10:49,054
heard you want to see me, Mrs. Motley?

1129
01:10:49,078 --> 01:10:49,888
Always, Mrs.

1130
01:10:49,912 --> 01:10:51,932
Big Gal.

1131
01:10:51,956 --> 01:10:54,434
Azelle was telling me how she seen this,

1132
01:10:54,458 --> 01:10:58,939
women in prison show on television and how when they do that

1133
01:10:58,963 --> 01:11:02,424
lady on lady stuff up in there, they use brooms.

1134
01:11:03,634 --> 01:11:06,637
Straighten up Ben H.

1135
01:11:08,973 --> 01:11:11,976
Im going up there.

1136
01:11:16,146 --> 01:11:19,125
State your name for the record, please.

1137
01:11:19,149 --> 01:11:20,001
Susannah.

1138
01:11:20,025 --> 01:11:22,462
Two "n" 's. Gibbs.

1139
01:11:22,486 --> 01:11:25,048
And now place your left hand on the Bible

1140
01:11:25,072 --> 01:11:28,075
and raise your right hand.

1141
01:11:30,244 --> 01:11:33,288
Mrs. Motley, I ain't never swore on no Bible.

1142
01:11:33,706 --> 01:11:36,643
And you are never obliged to do so in my courtroom.

1143
01:11:36,667 --> 01:11:39,670
But if you ever do its your other left hand.

1144
01:11:44,425 --> 01:11:47,737
Do you swear that the evidence you shall give to this court in

1145
01:11:47,761 --> 01:11:50,198
this matter shall be the truth, the whole truth,

1146
01:11:50,222 --> 01:11:53,183
and nothing but the truth, so help you God? I swear.

1147
01:11:54,268 --> 01:11:57,271
You may be seated.

1148
01:11:59,064 --> 01:12:02,067
Attorney Reed it's your witness.

1149
01:12:14,038 --> 01:12:15,223
It's nice to meet you again, Mrs.

1150
01:12:15,247 --> 01:12:17,350
Gibbs.

1151
01:12:17,374 --> 01:12:20,794
Now, I will ask you a series of questions about your daughter, Sadie Gibbs.

1152
01:12:21,295 --> 01:12:22,480
If you do not hear my question

1153
01:12:22,504 --> 01:12:24,149
or you don't understand, please let me know

1154
01:12:24,173 --> 01:12:26,985
and I will repeat the question or explain it. Okay.

1155
01:12:27,009 --> 01:12:30,012
Yes, ma'am.

1156
01:12:30,596 --> 01:12:32,407
Do you think I am going to be out of here

1157
01:12:32,431 --> 01:12:35,392
in time for my Westerns to come on?

1158
01:12:37,770 --> 01:12:39,247
We won't be long.

1159
01:12:39,271 --> 01:12:41,082
I promise.

1160
01:12:41,106 --> 01:12:44,109
Well, then, let's get on with it.

1161
01:12:44,318 --> 01:12:48,298
Now I understand Sadie Gibbs died while giving birth to your granddaughter.

1162
01:12:48,322 --> 01:12:50,717
Is that correct?

1163
01:12:50,741 --> 01:12:51,551
Yes, ma'am.

1164
01:12:51,575 --> 01:12:53,178
That's correct.

1165
01:12:53,202 --> 01:12:55,722
And what date was that?

1166
01:12:55,746 --> 01:12:58,749
July 25th, 1969.

1167
01:12:59,625 --> 01:13:02,628
And which hospital did she give birth in?

1168
01:13:02,795 --> 01:13:05,774
Columbia General.

1169
01:13:05,798 --> 01:13:08,467
And how far would you say Columbia General is from Puckney?

1170
01:13:10,219 --> 01:13:12,697
Oh, about 70 miles or so.

1171
01:13:12,721 --> 01:13:15,724
And how did Sadie Gibbs get to Columbia, General?

1172
01:13:15,808 --> 01:13:19,311
I dropped her off in the car I bought her from,

1173
01:13:20,813 --> 01:13:23,816
Mr. Old Man Hurley.

1174
01:13:25,317 --> 01:13:27,295
And is Columbia General

1175
01:13:27,319 --> 01:13:30,531
the same hospital where your daughter, Sadie Gibbs died?

1176
01:13:31,448 --> 01:13:34,094
Your honor.

1177
01:13:34,118 --> 01:13:36,096
I make a motion to be removed as counsel

1178
01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:39,164
to the Pro Hac Vice Admission of Kendra Reed.

1179
01:13:44,670 --> 01:13:46,648
I'm sorry, Ben H.

1180
01:13:46,672 --> 01:13:49,675
But this matter has been going on far too long.

1181
01:13:50,384 --> 01:13:53,387
Your motion is denied.

1182
01:13:53,887 --> 01:13:54,697
You may continue.

1183
01:13:54,721 --> 01:13:57,724
Attorney Reed.

1184
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:01,412
Thank you, Your Honor.

1185
01:14:01,436 --> 01:14:03,331
Mrs. Gibbs

1186
01:14:03,355 --> 01:14:04,749
is Columbia General.

1187
01:14:04,773 --> 01:14:07,860
The same hospital where your daughter, Sadie Gibbs, died.

1188
01:14:13,657 --> 01:14:16,219
First time I went to Columbia,

1189
01:14:16,243 --> 01:14:20,747
I was nine, working for a doctor nursing his children.

1190
01:14:21,331 --> 01:14:25,627
Mrs. Gibbs, did Sadie Gibbs die at Columbia General?

1191
01:14:25,711 --> 01:14:27,647
She was too perfect to live.

1192
01:14:27,671 --> 01:14:29,816
It's a simple yes or no.

1193
01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:32,610
Even when I saw her hips, they were just.

1194
01:14:32,634 --> 01:14:34,803
Your honor, the witness is being uncooperative.

1195
01:14:36,221 --> 01:14:36,698
Did Sadie

1196
01:14:36,722 --> 01:14:39,725
Gibbs die at the same hospital? Yes!

1197
01:14:39,850 --> 01:14:42,853
LouEster,

1198
01:14:43,270 --> 01:14:46,273
sit down.

1199
01:14:48,233 --> 01:14:50,628
You may continue.

1200
01:14:50,652 --> 01:14:52,881
Susannah Gibbs.

1201
01:14:52,905 --> 01:14:54,841
The Civil War is over.

1202
01:14:54,865 --> 01:14:56,176
We won.

1203
01:14:56,200 --> 01:14:57,677
You are no one's mammy.

1204
01:14:57,701 --> 01:14:59,554
I instruct you to please speak up.

1205
01:14:59,578 --> 01:15:01,848
Did you just call my granny a mammy.

1206
01:15:01,872 --> 01:15:04,726
Actually, I said the exact opposite. If you were listening. That's enough.

1207
01:15:04,750 --> 01:15:06,686
Sit down.

1208
01:15:06,710 --> 01:15:08,354
Did Sadie Gibbs die?

1209
01:15:08,378 --> 01:15:09,647
I said sit down.

1210
01:15:09,671 --> 01:15:11,524
I'm going to ask you one more time.

1211
01:15:11,548 --> 01:15:14,551
Sit down right now.

1212
01:15:15,594 --> 01:15:18,573
Are you telling me that I cannot ask my question?

1213
01:15:18,597 --> 01:15:23,268
I am telling you, if you do not have another question to sit down.

1214
01:15:23,810 --> 01:15:26,813
And is that the kind of law they taught you in secretarial school?

1215
01:15:27,481 --> 01:15:30,442
How dare you!

1216
01:15:31,276 --> 01:15:31,669
How dare you.

1217
01:15:31,693 --> 01:15:32,462
Waltz in here the

1218
01:15:32,486 --> 01:15:36,365
birthplace of your father And make a mockery a caricature of

1219
01:15:36,406 --> 01:15:39,409
this court with your high and mighty attitude.

1220
01:15:39,618 --> 01:15:42,663
Civility is the law of the land here.

1221
01:15:42,746 --> 01:15:45,582
And evidently you skip Harvard ethics classes.

1222
01:15:46,792 --> 01:15:49,354
You're not dealing with white collar embezzlers.

1223
01:15:49,378 --> 01:15:52,982
We have our laws, and they are here to be protecting the citizens of Puckney.

1224
01:15:53,006 --> 01:15:56,468
I'm entitled to ask... You might be entitled in the big city.

1225
01:15:56,551 --> 01:15:59,805
Miss lady. Down here, you have a long way to go and

1226
01:16:00,973 --> 01:16:02,283
a Short time to get there.

1227
01:16:02,307 --> 01:16:03,660
Sit down.

1228
01:16:03,684 --> 01:16:05,203
I Swear to God I will hold you in contempt.

1229
01:16:05,227 --> 01:16:08,647
Did Sadie Gibbs die at the same hospital? Yes.

1230
01:16:10,857 --> 01:16:13,860
Yes, ma'am.

1231
01:16:30,877 --> 01:16:32,563
Your honor,

1232
01:16:32,587 --> 01:16:35,590
I hold a copy of Sadie Gibbs death certificate,

1233
01:16:35,757 --> 01:16:39,529
which states that she died at the Palmetto State Hospital.

1234
01:16:39,553 --> 01:16:41,633
01:16:25:02 - 01:16:27:10 Therefore, I make a motion

1235
01:16:43,598 --> 01:16:47,436
that Susannah Gibbs be held in contempt for perjury.

1236
01:16:47,769 --> 01:16:52,441
Based on the sworn testimony she provided to this courtroom, where she stated

1237
01:16:52,524 --> 01:16:56,004
that Sadie Gibbs died at the same hospital in which she gave

1238
01:16:56,028 --> 01:16:59,031
birth.

1239
01:17:04,953 --> 01:17:07,539
Death comes at you in so many ways.

1240
01:17:10,625 --> 01:17:11,311
But the most

1241
01:17:11,335 --> 01:17:15,088
heartbreaking is to see the face of your child,

1242
01:17:15,380 --> 01:17:18,383
looking back at you in a newspaper.

1243
01:17:20,552 --> 01:17:22,530
She was already out of high school.

1244
01:17:22,554 --> 01:17:23,698
She was of age.

1245
01:17:23,722 --> 01:17:27,684
She just didn't want it out that she was carrying.

1246
01:17:29,895 --> 01:17:32,373
She kept screaming and begging.

1247
01:17:32,397 --> 01:17:34,709
Take me to the hospital.

1248
01:17:34,733 --> 01:17:37,736
Insisted Columbia General.

1249
01:17:46,328 --> 01:17:47,847
This court hereby finds Mrs.

1250
01:17:47,871 --> 01:17:50,874
Susannah Gibbs in contempt.

1251
01:17:51,541 --> 01:17:53,853
And orders that she be placed

1252
01:17:53,877 --> 01:17:56,022
in a holding cell in this courthouse

1253
01:17:56,046 --> 01:17:59,007
until further directives from this court.

1254
01:17:59,966 --> 01:18:02,969
Bailiff, please.

1255
01:18:44,678 --> 01:18:46,513
Hmmmm hmmmmmm.

1256
01:19:13,748 --> 01:19:15,935
You can't.

1257
01:19:15,959 --> 01:19:17,043
You can't do this.

1258
01:19:30,557 --> 01:19:38,523
Granny? Yeah baby?

1259
01:19:40,650 --> 01:19:43,653
That question she asked you.

1260
01:19:44,654 --> 01:19:47,657
Where was I really born?

1261
01:19:48,617 --> 01:19:52,996
Baby, if your mother was here, she tell you?

1262
01:19:54,164 --> 01:19:57,167
It don't matter how you come into the world.

1263
01:19:58,168 --> 01:20:00,563
It's what you make of yourself,

1264
01:20:00,587 --> 01:20:03,590
while you here that counts.

1265
01:20:06,551 --> 01:20:09,554
Oh, she's proud of you.

1266
01:20:10,180 --> 01:20:13,183
And so am I.

1267
01:20:17,979 --> 01:20:18,539
Good night,

1268
01:20:18,563 --> 01:20:19,582
Granny.

1269
01:20:19,606 --> 01:20:27,606
Good Night Baby.

1270
01:20:50,136 --> 01:20:53,139
Granny?

1271
01:23:11,861 --> 01:23:14,799
I arrived here from Georgia.

1272
01:23:14,823 --> 01:23:17,343
She was the first person

1273
01:23:17,367 --> 01:23:20,328
to welcome me as a schoolteacher.

1274
01:23:22,330 --> 01:23:24,016
We wasn't

1275
01:23:24,040 --> 01:23:27,043
blood cousins.

1276
01:23:27,252 --> 01:23:29,980
But because Mrs.

1277
01:23:30,004 --> 01:23:33,007
Big Gal said we was.

1278
01:23:35,343 --> 01:23:37,238
Then we was.

1279
01:23:37,262 --> 01:23:41,433
Mrs. Big Gal started the Puckney Chapter of the Handkerchief Ladies.

1280
01:23:42,308 --> 01:23:45,311
To her, it didn't matter the color of your skin,

1281
01:23:45,770 --> 01:23:48,773
because we were of service to all.

1282
01:23:49,107 --> 01:23:52,110
My granny,

1283
01:23:52,902 --> 01:23:55,905
she was born with a big lap,

1284
01:23:55,989 --> 01:23:58,992
strong arms.

1285
01:24:02,078 --> 01:24:05,123
And all that she could'nt give to my mother.

1286
01:24:07,792 --> 01:24:10,754
She gave to me.

1287
01:24:13,339 --> 01:24:16,342
I purchased that old bank building because

1288
01:24:17,177 --> 01:24:20,180
that's where my granny worked.

1289
01:24:21,055 --> 01:24:22,055
Scrubbing folks.

1290
01:24:31,816 --> 01:24:34,819
We were team.

1291
01:24:39,824 --> 01:24:42,827
We road through life together.

1292
01:24:51,920 --> 01:24:54,923
But, God has dealt me a bitter blow.

1293
01:24:56,424 --> 01:24:59,427
Cause I woke up one morning and my Granny was gone.

1294
01:25:05,225 --> 01:25:07,536
Her joy

1295
01:25:07,560 --> 01:25:10,522
and her humility gone!

1296
01:25:13,024 --> 01:25:14,752
Her laugh gone,

1297
01:25:14,776 --> 01:25:17,779
Her touch gone.

1298
01:25:24,118 --> 01:25:27,121
Her pride no longer stands tall.

1299
01:25:32,961 --> 01:25:35,964
My mother's gone.

1300
01:25:38,424 --> 01:25:41,427
And now my Granny's gone.

1301
01:25:46,057 --> 01:25:49,060
And no one's here but me.

1302
01:26:06,035 --> 01:26:09,080
I don't know

1303
01:26:09,372 --> 01:26:13,543
what Jesus is to you.

1304
01:26:15,378 --> 01:26:18,498
01:26:02:18 - 01:26:06:08 But I hope well I hope he is what he is to me. Yeah.

1305
01:26:23,177 --> 01:26:26,556
He's all I like to rule.

1306
01:26:32,896 --> 01:26:33,122
He's my

1307
01:26:33,146 --> 01:26:37,025
01:26:22:16 - 01:26:23:06 He's my.

1308
01:26:40,069 --> 01:26:43,573
She call the cornerstone.

1309
01:26:43,615 --> 01:26:49,162
Yeah, and that's how I know I love.

1310
01:26:49,495 --> 01:26:52,057
Yeah I know what

1311
01:26:52,081 --> 01:26:53,142
Jesus is.

1312
01:26:53,166 --> 01:26:56,169
What Jesus is to me.

1313
01:29:16,267 --> 01:29:19,270
Bull Street.

1314
01:29:43,252 --> 01:29:45,397
LouEster Sadie Gibbs,

1315
01:29:45,421 --> 01:29:48,382
please come through the double doors.

1316
01:29:52,470 --> 01:29:56,057
Did I hear LouEster Sadie Gibbs?

1317
01:29:56,099 --> 01:29:59,102
Or am I just bed bug crazy.

1318
01:29:59,310 --> 01:30:02,313
What's your birthday then? July 25th.

1319
01:30:03,648 --> 01:30:05,626
And what year?

1320
01:30:05,650 --> 01:30:08,653
1969.

1321
01:30:10,238 --> 01:30:11,238
Come on with me.

1322
01:30:26,712 --> 01:30:29,233
This

1323
01:30:29,257 --> 01:30:32,260
was Miss Sadie's room.

1324
01:30:34,220 --> 01:30:37,199
See that spot right over there.

1325
01:30:37,223 --> 01:30:40,184
It's where you come into this world.

1326
01:30:52,822 --> 01:30:55,592
Mr. Gibson,

1327
01:30:55,616 --> 01:30:58,512
would you be willing

1328
01:30:58,536 --> 01:31:01,581
to be my witness in court?

1329
01:31:02,623 --> 01:31:05,626
For Miss Sadie.

1330
01:31:05,835 --> 01:31:08,796
I'll be there.

1331
01:31:21,851 --> 01:31:29,851
01:32:05:06 - 01:32:07:23 Please state your full name for the court.

1332
01:32:24,997 --> 01:32:27,267
Bobby Lee Gibson.

1333
01:32:27,291 --> 01:32:29,645
Most folks call me Bo Gibson.

1334
01:32:29,669 --> 01:32:32,189
And where are you employed?

1335
01:32:32,213 --> 01:32:34,608
At the Palmetto State Hospital.

1336
01:32:34,632 --> 01:32:37,635
And is it true there's another name for this hospital?

1337
01:32:38,302 --> 01:32:40,322
Yes, ma'am.

1338
01:32:40,346 --> 01:32:41,865
Bull Street.

1339
01:32:41,889 --> 01:32:44,368
And why do they call it Bull Street?

1340
01:32:44,392 --> 01:32:46,954
That's the name of the street where.

1341
01:32:46,978 --> 01:32:50,481
The building is on where they bunch up folks

1342
01:32:51,440 --> 01:32:54,443
with eyes and hearts filled with pain.

1343
01:32:55,444 --> 01:32:55,754
And, Mr.

1344
01:32:55,778 --> 01:32:58,781
Gibson, what are your duties there?

1345
01:32:59,573 --> 01:33:04,245
Oh, keep the floors clean

1346
01:33:05,621 --> 01:33:07,683
and toilets from running over.

1347
01:33:07,707 --> 01:33:08,958
You know, fancy stuff.

1348
01:33:10,960 --> 01:33:12,437
And did you always clean up the floors?

1349
01:33:12,461 --> 01:33:13,855
There?

1350
01:33:13,879 --> 01:33:16,882
Not in my younger days when my back was straight.

1351
01:33:17,300 --> 01:33:17,859
And what did you do

1352
01:33:17,883 --> 01:33:20,237
when your back was straight?

1353
01:33:20,261 --> 01:33:22,447
Oh, I,

1354
01:33:22,471 --> 01:33:23,949
moved patients back and forth

1355
01:33:23,973 --> 01:33:26,976
from the basement.

1356
01:33:27,351 --> 01:33:30,354
And what's in the basement?

1357
01:33:32,940 --> 01:33:35,943
Well, that's where they

1358
01:33:36,027 --> 01:33:38,380
zap your brains back in the place.

1359
01:33:38,404 --> 01:33:39,381
Objection!

1360
01:33:39,405 --> 01:33:40,924
He's not a medical professional.

1361
01:33:40,948 --> 01:33:43,951
Overruled.

1362
01:33:44,577 --> 01:33:47,264
Mr. Gibson,

1363
01:33:47,288 --> 01:33:49,850
this strongbox here has been entered in as defendant.

1364
01:33:49,874 --> 01:33:51,643
Exhibit number one.

1365
01:33:51,667 --> 01:33:53,895
Do you recognize this strongbox?

1366
01:33:53,919 --> 01:33:55,397
I do.

1367
01:33:55,421 --> 01:33:57,649
It belonged to my momma.

1368
01:33:57,673 --> 01:33:58,984
Your honor.

1369
01:33:59,008 --> 01:34:00,736
Permission to approach the witness.

1370
01:34:00,760 --> 01:34:03,763
You may approach and continue.

1371
01:34:04,680 --> 01:34:07,492
Mr. Gibson, can you open the strongbox

1372
01:34:07,516 --> 01:34:10,519
and let the court know what is inside?

1373
01:34:18,361 --> 01:34:20,547
It's a big old envelope.

1374
01:34:20,571 --> 01:34:23,131
And can you let the court know what is inside that big envelope?

1375
01:34:27,036 --> 01:34:30,057
It's just what I put in there.

1376
01:34:30,081 --> 01:34:32,809
A picture.

1377
01:34:32,833 --> 01:34:35,520
A gold ring

1378
01:34:35,544 --> 01:34:37,439
a letter

1379
01:34:37,463 --> 01:34:40,466
and a police report.

1380
01:34:40,508 --> 01:34:42,861
Could you please read the police report for the court?

1381
01:34:42,885 --> 01:34:43,987
What landed Sadie Gibbs on.

1382
01:34:44,011 --> 01:34:46,972
Bull Street.

1383
01:34:56,482 --> 01:34:59,485
Well, it says here, plain as day.

1384
01:35:00,611 --> 01:35:02,047
Robbery.

1385
01:35:02,071 --> 01:35:04,007
For stealing a ring.

1386
01:35:04,031 --> 01:35:04,591
Objection.

1387
01:35:04,615 --> 01:35:04,883
Your honor,

1388
01:35:04,907 --> 01:35:08,369
this witness is unable to substantiate the authenticity of this document.

1389
01:35:09,578 --> 01:35:12,623
Overruled.

1390
01:35:14,542 --> 01:35:15,477
Mr. Gibson,

1391
01:35:15,501 --> 01:35:18,504
what do you remember about the patient, Sadie Gibbs?

1392
01:35:18,546 --> 01:35:20,649
She was on Bull Street by mistake.

1393
01:35:20,673 --> 01:35:21,108
Objection.

1394
01:35:21,132 --> 01:35:23,944
The witness cannot testify as to why she was there.

1395
01:35:23,968 --> 01:35:25,362
Sustained.

1396
01:35:25,386 --> 01:35:28,389
Rephrase the question.

1397
01:35:29,974 --> 01:35:31,993
How do you know that Sadie Gibbs was on Bull Street?

1398
01:35:32,017 --> 01:35:33,912
Objection. Leading.

1399
01:35:33,936 --> 01:35:36,939
I will allow.

1400
01:35:37,648 --> 01:35:39,668
Oh, she told me herself.

1401
01:35:39,692 --> 01:35:42,003
Objection. Dead man statute.

1402
01:35:42,027 --> 01:35:45,406
Mr. Gibson has no financial interest in the outcome of this case.

1403
01:35:45,656 --> 01:35:47,783
Sustained. And you may continue.

1404
01:35:49,869 --> 01:35:52,389
What did she say?

1405
01:35:52,413 --> 01:35:54,057
Well,

1406
01:35:54,081 --> 01:35:56,852
she told me

1407
01:35:56,876 --> 01:35:59,879
that she slipped out of Columbia General

1408
01:36:00,713 --> 01:36:03,400
after her mother dropped off.

1409
01:36:03,424 --> 01:36:06,427
And how she made a beeline to the train station.

1410
01:36:07,720 --> 01:36:10,723
And why the train station?

1411
01:36:10,890 --> 01:36:11,825
Well, that's where she was

1412
01:36:11,849 --> 01:36:15,644
meeting up with Harrison, to run away up to DC.

1413
01:36:16,645 --> 01:36:17,831
And what happened to their plans,

1414
01:36:17,855 --> 01:36:19,875
Mr. Gibson?

1415
01:36:19,899 --> 01:36:21,835
Well,

1416
01:36:21,859 --> 01:36:24,129
the Sheriff caught up with Miss Sadie

1417
01:36:24,153 --> 01:36:27,156
and hauled her off to Bull Street.

1418
01:36:28,032 --> 01:36:31,202
And did Harrison Reed know Sadie Gibbs ended up on Bull Street?

1419
01:36:31,660 --> 01:36:32,095
Objection.

1420
01:36:32,119 --> 01:36:34,681
Calls for speculation on the part of the witness.

1421
01:36:34,705 --> 01:36:37,750
Overruled.

1422
01:36:38,542 --> 01:36:40,145
Well, there ain't no way he could have known

1423
01:36:40,169 --> 01:36:43,172
because she asked me to go tell him.

1424
01:36:44,965 --> 01:36:47,194
She gave his picture

1425
01:36:47,218 --> 01:36:49,029
so I could recognize him.

1426
01:36:49,053 --> 01:36:50,739
And did you recognize him?

1427
01:36:50,763 --> 01:36:51,889
Well, he wasn't there.

1428
01:36:53,933 --> 01:36:55,535
So I asked the shoeshine boy.

1429
01:36:55,559 --> 01:36:58,497
If he'd seen him.

1430
01:36:58,521 --> 01:37:01,666
And he remembered how tall and handsome he was.

1431
01:37:01,690 --> 01:37:06,153
But mostly what he remembered was the woman that he was talking with.

1432
01:37:07,696 --> 01:37:10,699
Well, everybody knew her from the newspaper.

1433
01:37:11,742 --> 01:37:14,745
And what do they remember about her from the newspapers?

1434
01:37:15,829 --> 01:37:18,600
That she was the first black woman

1435
01:37:18,624 --> 01:37:21,186
to get in the white college.

1436
01:37:21,210 --> 01:37:23,146
What happened when you told Sadie Gibbs

1437
01:37:23,170 --> 01:37:26,173
that Harrison Reed was not at the train station?

1438
01:37:26,215 --> 01:37:27,817
She wrote him a letter.

1439
01:37:27,841 --> 01:37:30,654
And what happened after she wrote him that letter?

1440
01:37:30,678 --> 01:37:32,989
She wanted to go home.

1441
01:37:33,013 --> 01:37:34,574
Did she?

1442
01:37:34,598 --> 01:37:36,076
No, ma'am.

1443
01:37:36,100 --> 01:37:38,912
They told her that the Sheriff would

1444
01:37:38,936 --> 01:37:41,081
have to give word first.

1445
01:37:41,105 --> 01:37:44,108
And how did she react to that?

1446
01:37:44,900 --> 01:37:47,903
Oh, she got so worked up.

1447
01:37:49,071 --> 01:37:50,072
Till you come out

1448
01:37:51,240 --> 01:37:54,010
before your time

1449
01:37:54,034 --> 01:37:55,845
and Miss Sadie,

1450
01:37:55,869 --> 01:37:58,914
she passed out cold.

1451
01:38:00,332 --> 01:38:03,335
Well, after she come through, it.

1452
01:38:03,961 --> 01:38:06,690
She wanted to see her baby girl

1453
01:38:06,714 --> 01:38:09,234
and take you home.

1454
01:38:09,258 --> 01:38:12,261
And when they refused.

1455
01:38:12,720 --> 01:38:14,990
She just hollered.

1456
01:38:15,014 --> 01:38:15,699
Just

1457
01:38:15,723 --> 01:38:18,726
hollered, all the time.

1458
01:38:21,854 --> 01:38:24,857
I tried to get her to quiet down

1459
01:38:25,316 --> 01:38:28,319
until I could find a way to get her out of there.

1460
01:38:29,862 --> 01:38:32,757
But she just kept shouting,

1461
01:38:32,781 --> 01:38:35,784
banging on the door.

1462
01:38:35,909 --> 01:38:38,871
And that's when they strapped her down

1463
01:38:39,079 --> 01:38:42,058
and ordered me to move her to the basement.

1464
01:38:42,082 --> 01:38:45,085
To quiet her.

1465
01:38:47,338 --> 01:38:50,341
I waited.

1466
01:38:50,674 --> 01:38:52,360
All that night,

1467
01:38:52,384 --> 01:38:55,387
and all the next day, with her body.

1468
01:38:55,804 --> 01:38:58,807
Miss Sadie's body never got cold.

1469
01:38:59,141 --> 01:39:02,144
But the death certificate, says cerebral.

1470
01:39:03,270 --> 01:39:06,273
That Sadie Gibbs died from a stroke.

1471
01:39:07,191 --> 01:39:08,793
Well,

1472
01:39:08,817 --> 01:39:11,820
that's what all the certificates say.

1473
01:39:14,073 --> 01:39:17,076
Mr. Gibson,

1474
01:39:17,159 --> 01:39:20,972
here I have defendant exhibit number three. Sadie Gibbs letter.

1475
01:39:20,996 --> 01:39:23,666
Do you recognize this letter? Yes, I do.

1476
01:39:24,958 --> 01:39:27,961
I remember the day she wrote it.

1477
01:39:28,879 --> 01:39:31,816
Your honor, permission to approach the witness again.

1478
01:39:31,840 --> 01:39:34,843
You may approach and continue.

1479
01:39:40,224 --> 01:39:42,077
Mr. Gibson,

1480
01:39:42,101 --> 01:39:45,104
will you read, Sadie Gibbs letter for the court.

1481
01:39:54,279 --> 01:39:57,926
My Dear Harry, your

1482
01:39:57,950 --> 01:40:00,095
mother has made a cruel mistake, branding me as

1483
01:40:00,119 --> 01:40:01,721
a criminal.

1484
01:40:01,745 --> 01:40:04,790
She's used her power to put me on Bull Street.

1485
01:40:05,332 --> 01:40:08,335
She's tried to break our hearts, but we will overcome

1486
01:40:09,169 --> 01:40:12,172
and be together forever.

1487
01:40:12,256 --> 01:40:16,653
Today I share with you that I am

1488
01:40:16,677 --> 01:40:18,988
with child.

1489
01:40:19,012 --> 01:40:22,015
Our hearts will grow into one.

1490
01:40:22,808 --> 01:40:25,161
I wanted to share of this surprise of new life but

1491
01:40:25,185 --> 01:40:27,664
I didn't want to interfere with your studies.

1492
01:40:27,688 --> 01:40:29,999
They've been so important these last four months.

1493
01:40:30,023 --> 01:40:33,235
I will go back home and await your rescue.

1494
01:40:33,944 --> 01:40:36,214
Remember to always launch with a blast.

1495
01:40:36,238 --> 01:40:38,073
My heart belongs only to you.

1496
01:40:39,241 --> 01:40:41,803
Sadie.

1497
01:40:41,827 --> 01:40:42,137
How's that

1498
01:40:42,161 --> 01:40:45,205
Gibson?

1499
01:40:47,750 --> 01:40:49,477
Wear this.

1500
01:40:49,501 --> 01:40:49,936
He'll know

1501
01:40:49,960 --> 01:40:52,921
I sent you.

1502
01:40:53,088 --> 01:41:00,429
Go go go go go go go.

1503
01:41:16,320 --> 01:41:19,281
Mr. Gibson,

1504
01:41:20,032 --> 01:41:23,035
Did my mother get to see me?

1505
01:41:30,793 --> 01:41:31,394
In her heart.

1506
01:41:31,418 --> 01:41:33,938
She did.

1507
01:41:33,962 --> 01:41:36,965
In her heart.

1508
01:41:38,467 --> 01:41:41,470
No further questions.

1509
01:41:50,270 --> 01:41:53,273
Ms. Reed,

1510
01:41:54,191 --> 01:41:57,194
would you like to cross?

1511
01:41:58,529 --> 01:41:59,422
Do you remember what you had

1512
01:41:59,446 --> 01:42:02,449
for breakfast last Tuesday?

1513
01:42:02,991 --> 01:42:05,994
I sure do.

1514
01:42:06,203 --> 01:42:09,248
Grits and pimento cheese.

1515
01:42:10,290 --> 01:42:13,252
Same as I have every morning.

1516
01:42:13,877 --> 01:42:16,880
Double smoked ham, eggs

1517
01:42:17,047 --> 01:42:20,050
and my wife's homemade biscuits and gravy.

1518
01:42:22,135 --> 01:42:24,405
Do you remember what you did last Tuesday

1519
01:42:24,429 --> 01:42:27,432
after breakfast?

1520
01:42:28,517 --> 01:42:31,520
No, ma'am, I don't believe I do.

1521
01:42:33,063 --> 01:42:34,415
Then how is it that you remember

1522
01:42:34,439 --> 01:42:37,442
every detail going back to 1969?

1523
01:42:38,318 --> 01:42:40,922
Well, that's simple,

1524
01:42:40,946 --> 01:42:43,949
The older I get, the clear, it becomes.

1525
01:42:45,492 --> 01:42:47,929
Right.

1526
01:42:47,953 --> 01:42:49,848
But how is it,

1527
01:42:49,872 --> 01:42:52,058
you remember the exact date?

1528
01:42:52,082 --> 01:42:54,585
July 25th, 1969.

1529
01:42:56,378 --> 01:42:57,355
Well, that's cause I've been

1530
01:42:57,379 --> 01:43:00,382
celebrating it every year myself.

1531
01:43:01,258 --> 01:43:04,028
July 25th

1532
01:43:04,052 --> 01:43:07,055
is when my old momma come in this world.

1533
01:43:15,606 --> 01:43:16,583
Well, I'll take that to mean

1534
01:43:16,607 --> 01:43:19,610
there are no further questions.

1535
01:43:22,988 --> 01:43:25,991
Bless your heart.

1536
01:43:26,575 --> 01:43:29,578
This court shall recess.

1537
01:43:29,995 --> 01:43:33,373
We shall resume later on this evening, after which I will come back

1538
01:43:34,374 --> 01:43:37,377
and render my decision.

1539
01:43:37,628 --> 01:43:40,631
You may be excused, sir.

1540
01:43:41,548 --> 01:43:44,551
All rise.

1541
01:43:56,063 --> 01:43:59,066
In the matter of the estate of Harrison Reed.

1542
01:43:59,316 --> 01:44:02,945
The court determines that the following persons are heirs.

1543
01:44:04,112 --> 01:44:07,115
The findings are that Kendra Reed of New York, New York,

1544
01:44:07,908 --> 01:44:10,261
is a daughter

1545
01:44:10,285 --> 01:44:12,263
and that LouEster Sadie Gibbs of Puckney,

1546
01:44:12,287 --> 01:44:15,290
South Carolina, is a daughter.

1547
01:44:18,126 --> 01:44:19,062
Oh, and one other thing

1548
01:44:19,086 --> 01:44:23,942
for the record, LouEster Gibbs maintains possessions of Sadie Gibbs

1549
01:44:23,966 --> 01:44:27,928
personal items, including the Winthrop College ring.

1550
01:44:30,138 --> 01:44:32,450
And to you, Ms. Reed,

1551
01:44:32,474 --> 01:44:35,036
the local bar association and the South

1552
01:44:35,060 --> 01:44:38,063
Carolina Bar Association.

1553
01:44:39,022 --> 01:44:42,025
Well, they will be notified of your actions.

1554
01:44:42,401 --> 01:44:45,404
I'll see to it.

1555
01:44:49,700 --> 01:44:52,703
All rise.

1556
01:45:25,652 --> 01:45:28,006
I am sick of everyone

1557
01:45:28,030 --> 01:45:31,199
saying that my land is theirs.

1558
01:45:32,034 --> 01:45:34,429
I'm sick of you

1559
01:45:34,453 --> 01:45:36,597
crossing me.

1560
01:45:36,621 --> 01:45:37,473
You're not supposed.

1561
01:45:37,497 --> 01:45:39,392
You're supposed to be part of the family.

1562
01:45:39,416 --> 01:45:42,419
Turn around. Boy.

1563
01:45:43,086 --> 01:45:45,338
You little weasel!

1564
01:45:56,433 --> 01:46:00,479
Ben Hurley the fourth, you were born a coward.

1565
01:46:01,354 --> 01:46:04,357
And you're still a coward.

1566
01:46:04,775 --> 01:46:08,087
All my life, I tried the earnest to protect you.

1567
01:46:08,111 --> 01:46:09,547
From you.

1568
01:46:09,571 --> 01:46:11,132
And still you

1569
01:46:11,156 --> 01:46:14,159
don't appreciate what I done.

1570
01:46:14,743 --> 01:46:17,746
You treated an unsaved man better than me.

1571
01:46:20,791 --> 01:46:23,102
Come on, shoot me.

1572
01:46:23,126 --> 01:46:25,730
Come on.

1573
01:46:25,754 --> 01:46:26,564
Come on, come on.

1574
01:46:26,588 --> 01:46:27,690
Ready?

1575
01:46:27,714 --> 01:46:29,233
Come on. Go ahead.

1576
01:46:29,257 --> 01:46:31,444
Go ahead. Shoot it.

1577
01:46:31,468 --> 01:46:33,720
Or live up to the family's name. Boy.

1578
01:46:36,389 --> 01:46:37,492
I'm not you.

1579
01:46:37,516 --> 01:46:40,495
Yeah.

1580
01:46:40,519 --> 01:46:43,081
I'll never be you.

1581
01:46:43,105 --> 01:46:46,108
I don't want your name, your legacy.

1582
01:46:47,651 --> 01:46:50,654
I don't want the ground you walk on.

1583
01:46:54,533 --> 01:46:57,178
I'm done.

1584
01:46:57,202 --> 01:47:00,205
Forever.

1585
01:47:01,790 --> 01:47:04,310
You come back here.

1586
01:47:04,334 --> 01:47:06,187
Come back here Ben H.

1587
01:47:06,211 --> 01:47:09,214
Come back and finish business.

1588
01:47:09,381 --> 01:47:12,384
Grandpa got tricked,

1589
01:47:12,884 --> 01:47:15,887
The Reeds are wicked.

1590
01:47:17,556 --> 01:47:20,559
They're wicked.

1591
01:47:20,684 --> 01:47:23,687
For they've cast iniquity upon.

1592
01:47:25,355 --> 01:47:28,358
And in wrath, they hate us.

1593
01:47:30,360 --> 01:47:30,795
The wicked

1594
01:47:30,819 --> 01:47:33,464
will fade away.

1595
01:47:33,488 --> 01:47:36,491
And wither.

1596
01:47:40,495 --> 01:47:43,224
It's mine.

1597
01:47:43,248 --> 01:47:46,144
It's mine.

1598
01:47:46,168 --> 01:47:49,171
I'm still here.

1599
01:47:52,799 --> 01:47:53,651
I've created a land

1600
01:47:53,675 --> 01:47:57,137
trust that restricts commercial agriculture. And?

1601
01:47:57,470 --> 01:47:59,824
And once all the timber is sold,

1602
01:47:59,848 --> 01:48:03,226
I want a two story house built with six bedrooms and a basketball goal.

1603
01:48:03,852 --> 01:48:06,789
Using the income from the sale of the timber.

1604
01:48:06,813 --> 01:48:09,292
You do know that the sale will be divided by two.

1605
01:48:09,316 --> 01:48:12,360
We're talking roughly 750,000 each.

1606
01:48:12,402 --> 01:48:14,589
Well, in that case, the balance should cover the property

1607
01:48:14,613 --> 01:48:16,865
tax and water and electricity for the next five years.

1608
01:48:18,450 --> 01:48:18,885
LouEster,

1609
01:48:18,909 --> 01:48:20,678
What are you going to do with six bedrooms?

1610
01:48:20,702 --> 01:48:21,596
Oh, it's not for me.

1611
01:48:21,620 --> 01:48:23,723
It's for Mae-Dot and her family.

1612
01:48:23,747 --> 01:48:26,791
Mae Dot? That riffraff.

1613
01:48:26,958 --> 01:48:29,854
I will not agree to such arrangements.

1614
01:48:29,878 --> 01:48:33,149
Auntie Leila, do you know that verse in the Bible

1615
01:48:33,173 --> 01:48:36,259
that says children are a gift from the Lord?

1616
01:48:37,219 --> 01:48:39,864
What does that have to do with anything?

1617
01:48:39,888 --> 01:48:43,850
If we don't agree to her demands, she'll force the sale of the entire property.

1618
01:48:44,851 --> 01:48:46,537
You should listen to her.

1619
01:48:46,561 --> 01:48:49,522
She went to Harvard.

1620
01:48:56,863 --> 01:49:02,220
The King of England sat down with

1621
01:49:02,244 --> 01:49:05,247
my great-great grandpa, himself.

1622
01:49:06,748 --> 01:49:07,225
Okay.

1623
01:49:07,249 --> 01:49:09,602
Can you check

1624
01:49:09,626 --> 01:49:11,646
out front for my missing heifers?

1625
01:49:11,670 --> 01:49:14,631
They should be there by now.

1626
01:49:15,465 --> 01:49:18,468
I gotta ride them into town before dusk.

1627
01:49:20,345 --> 01:49:22,949
Can you check again?

1628
01:49:22,973 --> 01:49:24,266
Been checking all week.

1629
01:49:25,600 --> 01:49:28,603
Still ain't there.

1630
01:49:28,687 --> 01:49:31,290
Old fool.

1631
01:49:31,314 --> 01:49:34,317
Might have to buy him a horse.

1632
01:49:36,736 --> 01:49:36,921
Yeah.

1633
01:49:36,945 --> 01:49:37,880
It's coming.

1634
01:49:37,904 --> 01:49:39,924
Yeah, I know it's coming.

1635
01:49:39,948 --> 01:49:42,951
I told them to bring em.

1636
01:49:47,747 --> 01:49:50,792
Marilyn Hurley please come through the double doors.

1637
01:50:26,411 --> 01:50:28,389
Momma always told me.

1638
01:50:28,413 --> 01:50:31,458
Don't be afraid to shine.

1639
01:50:31,875 --> 01:50:33,394
Don't you try to please

1640
01:50:33,418 --> 01:50:36,421
no one except the one inside.

1641
01:50:36,963 --> 01:50:39,442
I know you can't change the weather.

1642
01:50:39,466 --> 01:50:42,469
And you can't change where you're from.

1643
01:50:42,802 --> 01:50:44,530
The color of your skin

1644
01:50:44,554 --> 01:50:47,557
or the beat of your own drum.

1645
01:50:48,475 --> 01:50:52,020
Love will keep you chasing the wind.

1646
01:50:52,771 --> 01:50:56,524
Just to keep you chasing it again.

1647
01:50:58,360 --> 01:51:00,338
But I know who I am.

1648
01:51:00,362 --> 01:51:02,340
No matter what they say.

1649
01:51:02,364 --> 01:51:04,425
When my heart leads the way.

1650
01:51:04,449 --> 01:51:07,595
I will follow my heart.

1651
01:51:07,619 --> 01:51:08,763
When my heart leads the way.

1652
01:51:08,787 --> 01:51:16,787
I will follow oooo ooooo.

1653
01:51:22,634 --> 01:51:26,554
It may be the road that nobody else goes down.

1654
01:51:27,889 --> 01:51:30,326
But that's the one I'm taking.

1655
01:51:30,350 --> 01:51:33,353
That's just where I'm bound.

1656
01:51:33,478 --> 01:51:35,748
There's always gonna be those voices.

1657
01:51:35,772 --> 01:51:38,775
Doubting every step.

1658
01:51:38,900 --> 01:51:42,946
But I'm just gonna listen to what's pounding in my chest.

1659
01:51:43,488 --> 01:51:47,117
Love will keep you chasing the wind.

1660
01:51:47,826 --> 01:51:51,621
Just to keep you chasing it again.

1661
01:51:53,373 --> 01:51:55,142
But I know who I am.

1662
01:51:55,166 --> 01:51:57,395
No matter what they say.

1663
01:51:57,419 --> 01:51:59,522
When my heart leads the way.

1664
01:51:59,546 --> 01:52:02,733
I will follow my heart.

1665
01:52:02,757 --> 01:52:03,859
When my heart leads the way.

1666
01:52:03,883 --> 01:52:10,140
I will follow.

1667
01:52:17,647 --> 01:52:19,625
Momma always told me.

1668
01:52:19,649 --> 01:52:21,669
Don't be afraid to shine.

1669
01:52:21,693 --> 01:52:24,988
This little light of mine.

1670
01:52:25,155 --> 01:52:28,509
Love will keep you chasing

1671
01:52:28,533 --> 01:52:29,677
the wind.

1672
01:52:29,701 --> 01:52:33,496
Just to keep you chasing me again.

1673
01:52:35,039 --> 01:52:36,976
But I know who I am.

1674
01:52:37,000 --> 01:52:39,103
No matter what they say.

1675
01:52:39,127 --> 01:52:41,188
When my heart leads the way.

1676
01:52:41,212 --> 01:52:44,632
I will follow.

1677
01:52:44,674 --> 01:52:45,693
When my heart leads the way

1678
01:52:45,717 --> 01:52:50,889
I will follow

1679
01:52:52,474 --> 01:52:56,561
oooooo oooooo ooo.

1680
01:52:56,686 --> 01:52:59,689
Ooooooo ooooooooo.

1681
01:53:01,065 --> 01:53:04,903
But my heart leads the way,

1682
01:53:06,821 --> 01:53:08,674
I will follow.

1683
01:53:08,698 --> 01:53:11,760
