- Woo.

Hey, Leah.

- Hey, Cora.

- Ooh girl, God is so good!

I was just jamming in my car.

- Amen. Mm-hmm.

- Well, you don't sound excited about the Lord.

- I am, hallelujah.

- Oh.

Alright, well, this place is gonna be so nice.

- Yes it is.

- Yeah, I see all the potential.

Just look at all this potential.

- Mm-hmm.

I can too.

- Yes, what we could do is,

we gonna take these curtains right here

and get some new curtains

where the sun will just shine through!

- Yup, that would be nice.

- Ooh, and then we're gonna paint all these walls hot pink.

- Yeah.

Yeah.

- And I'mma let Mr. Brown choose all the rest

of the colors.

- Oh, that'll be nice.

- Okay, so what did I say?

- Look, I'm sorry.

- You're distracted. - No. You know, I'm fine.

It's okay.

- Well, go on, tell me. I know you're not okay.

- You know what? I know. [chuckles]

I mean, I do that, I say that all the time.

But I am fine.

- Okay, well it's good to talk about things.

- Nope, you know what? I'm fine.

- I mean. But--

- I just--you know, I just can't believe

she would do what she did.

- Well, yeah, I--I get that.

- We taught her better than that.

- Well honey, you can teach your kids everything

when they're young, but they do grow up, now.

- Yeah, but she was so cute when she was young.

- And she's still cute! And young.

- No, she ain't. - Stop that.

- You know what I mean.

- What you mean is, it was easy to control her.

- Yes! - Well--

D--ah-- Do you hear yourself?

- I know, I don't want to control her, Cora.

But I just want her to--to-- to...to make better decisions.

- CORA: I get that.

But baby, you have to trust the word.

- What do you mean?

- It says, "Train up a child in the way it should go,

and when they old, they won't depart from it."

- Does that work?

- Well, listen honey. I've seen some stray

but they always come back to what they was taught.

- Hmm, I hope you're right.

- Look, she seems like a nice kid.

She's a nice girl.

- She is.

- And you and your husband did a good job, right?

- I know, but we just... we work so hard.

- Right, well... - LEAH: I mean--

And I just really feel like I wish I'd have spent

more time with both of them.

- CORA: Look, a lot of parents feel that way.

We have that same guilt.

- Is that right? - Yes!

We work so hard to try to take care of our kids

and our family.

But it happens to everybody, baby, that guilt just sets in.

- I just--well...

- Listen, you just have to believe

you done the right thing by her,

and let that be that.

- It's a lot easier said than done.

- I get that.

- And teenagers... [groaning]

- They can be tough, huh?

[laughing] I know.

Trust me, I know baby.

- Now, when I was a teenager a few years ago,

things were different.

- Did you say a few years ago?

- You know what I mean.

- I know girl, 'cause it was the same for me.

A few years ago.

Woo!

- Now, Cora. - CORA: What?

- [stuttering]

You know, you just said a few years ago.

- Wait a minute, what you trying to say?

- I'm just saying maybe it was a little bit more--

lil' bit more than a few years.

- Oh, it was a little bit more than a few for you too.

- You know what? You right. - Mm-hmm.

And nobody knows what a few is.

It can be a few dozen.

And you ain't no spring chicken yourself.

- Alright, now, I'm with you when you're right, alright.

- Okay. - [laughing]

- CORA: Don't be trying to come for me, baby.

I'mma be like them young people, don't be trying

to come for me, girl, 'cause look...

- Now Ms. Cora, you know they stopped saying that

in the 90s.

- Well, don't they be breaking it down like this?

- In the 90s.

- Oh, I thought that was in the 2000s.

- I'm sorry. It's okay.

- You know, I think I still look good for my age.

- Now that you do! - Allow me to profile for you.

- Come on, somebody. Come on!

- [laughing] I know, girl.

- You know, you're a little feisty.

- I get it from my mama, girl. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, honey.

- You know, I really didn't mean any harm.

I just--I guess I just wanted to know what you knew

about teenagers in this day and age.

- Well, you know I raised two daughters.

- Did you? - CORA: Yes, honey.

They was tough, too. I mean, they were a handful.

Lord, have mercy.

But we made it.

- Were you married?

- Yes, I was married a long time ago

but he passed away.

- Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... - CORA: That's alright.

But I do know teenagers, and I taught high school.

- Mmm, so you really know.

- Yeah, I know a little bit honey.

Yes, baby, sit down.

Sit down, let me tell you something.

You know, you gotta know that a move like this

can make a child doubt a lot about what they know.

You know, moving into a new place,

and new schools and everything.

- LEAH: New friends. - New friends.

- LEAH: Yeah, I mean, I know this is gonna be

hard for her, I really do.

- Yeah.

- But that does not mean she gets to be disrespectful.

- And you're right about that.

- And she is grounded.

- Well, I don't blame you for that.

She'd be grounded if she was mine too, baby.

And if she was my mama's child-- - Your mom?

- She'd have a couple black eyes.

- Your mama?

- Baby, she would have double deuced, baby.

- Ooh, oh.

- She couldn't bob and weave

'cause she would have caught her.

- My mom was like an octopus,

hands coming from everywhere. - Everywhere.

- Heavyweight fighter.

- Ooh, well I'm glad your mom ain't here.

- No, she better be glad my mama ain't here.

But listen to me, Leah.

You did the right thing, sweetheart.

- Thank you, Ms. Cora.

- You're welcome, you're welcome.

It's gonna be alright.

- But why do I feel so bad about it? [sighs]

- ♪

- Oh, don't cry, sweetheart.

Baby, don't start crying

'cause you gonna make me cry and I don't wanna

cry right now.

I think I'm looking cute.

- You are.

I didn't do anything wrong, though.

- You didn't, sweetheart.

You didn't do nothing wrong.

- So why am I so sad?

- Because it hurts sometimes when we punish our kids.

You know, it hurts to do that to correct them.

- I know.

- It's for their own good, baby. - Yeah, I know.

- I get that you're upset.

But this will help her in the long run, okay?

- Yeah. I just--I feel like

parents just don't get a handbook

and I just want my family to be happy.

I want everybody to be happy.

- Punishing your kids is good for them.

You just can't give them too much freedom, honey.

We still got to guide them along the way.

That's what's happening out here in this world now,

kids is getting too much freedom.

But as long as you giving her good guidance

they gonna be alright.

Both of 'em, they gonna be some good kids.

- I understand that.

- Let me tell you something, don't feel bad about that, okay?

She was wrong.

But girl, let me say it again, if my mama had seen her...

- I gotta meet your mama!

- No you don't, 'cause that's old fashioned right there.

With a capital F. - Capital F?

- Yes, honey.

It would have been a whole lot of slow walking

and loud singing.

- What you mean? A funeral? - CORA: Yes, girl.

She would've baptised her in the wrong way.

- Oh, my gosh.

- BOTH: [laughing]

- Well, I'm sure glad your mama not here.

- Again, she better be glad too.

- [laughing]

- It's gonna be alright, baby. - I know.

- Alright. - Thank you.

- Now, what was you doing before I got here?

- Just trying to clean up this place.

- With no water?

- I know, right?

- That does make it difficult, don't it?

Well, I wonder what the men doing out there.

- Apparently nothing.

Let's get them to do something!

- Well, you know what? I'mma try something.

Let me see what I can do with this plumbing.

I know a thing or two, baby.

I was a single mama.

I know a lot about a lot. - LEAH: Okay, alright.

- Now, where is your tool... I see a toolbox.

- You know, my husband don't know what a wrench is.

- Your husband don't know what a wrench is?

- No, ma'am. - That's so sad.

These young men of today.

Alright, now look. Ooh, this one!

Look at this big old vice grip!

- You know the name of everything, don't you?!

- Well, you know you got to when you're a single mama.

- Okay!

- Hi.

- Go away!

- I mean, I would but we share the same bedroom.

- Why did you do that?

- What did I do?

- Tell mom and dad about him.

- What do you mean? I should have.

- Why?

- Because you shouldn't have gotten in the car with him.

- You know, they just make us move here,

and we have to do everything they say.

- Well, they are our parents.

- Well, I don't like it.

- You don't really have a choice.

- God, you're such a loser.

- And you're such a grounded loser.

- I'm not grounded. - What?!

Yes, you are. I heard them say it.

- Well, I'm going out again.

- And where are you gonna go?

- Don't you worry your pretty little head.

- You're just making this situation worse for yourself.

- Yeah, well, whatever.

- Why are you so hard-headed?

- And why are you such a spoiled brat?

- Just because I do what they say,

doesn't make me spoiled.

- Oh, really?! What would you call it?

- Understanding what mom and dad are going through.

- Yeah, well, you can understand it all you want.

- I do. - Okay, fine.

- Alright, and you better not leave.

- [scoffs] Watch me.

- If you leave, I'm gonna tell 'em.

- So? - Leave and see what happens.

it was a soldering iron... - Soldering iron?

- VINNY: And you had to weld the part

and then took some 2x4s, sawdust...

It's very complicated.

You ladies' small brains wouldn't understand it.

- Oh.

- That the valve was rusted and I replaced it?

- Oh.

- Whose brain is small?
