PREVIOUSLY ON "THE HAVES AND THE HAVE NOTS"...

MONEY WILL GET YOU THIS.

SO, DOES THAT MEAN I'M HIRED?

YOU START RIGHT NOW.

Celine: YOU HAD THE HONOR OF MEETING MISS VERONICA.

THE BLACK BETTY FORD.

SHE'S WORTH $20 MILLION.

SEE? I GOT NOTHING.

THIRD STINT IN REHAB.

EVERYBODY, THIS IS A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE.

THIS IS CANDACE.

NICE TO MEET YOU ALL.

MY MOM DIED.

[ GASPS ] Katheryn: HANNA!

YOU GOT IT. MY FIRST TOW TRUCK.

I WANT $100,000.

[ SNIFFLING ]

GOOD MORNING.

GOOD MORNING. [ SCRUBBING ]

IS EVERYTHING OKAY?

YES.

[ SCRUBBING CONTINUES ]

YOU DON'T NEED TO DO THAT. I CAN DO THAT.

NO, I GOT IT. NO, LET ME.

NO.

I'M SORRY.

WASH THOSE.

MY SON'S A SLOB.

I HAVE THIS, BUT THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I'M SORRY.

I WAS TRYING TO MAKE UP FOR LAST NIGHT.

I AM SO SORRY FOR SPILLING THAT WINE ALL OVER YOUR GUEST.

I HAVE NEVER DONE ANYTHING LIKE THAT BEFORE IN MY LIFE.

[ SNIFFLES ] DON'T MENTION IT.

TODAY'S A NEW DAY.

UM...I CAN'T SEEM TO GET THIS OUT.

RED WINE.

I SPILLED IT ON MY GOWN LAST NIGHT.

WELL, IT'S A GOOD THING I DIDN'T HAND IT TO YOU.

[ CHUCKLES ]

YEAH.

GOOD THING.

UM, CAN...

UH...

I'LL NEED THESE SWEATERS DRY‐CLEANED.

AND MR. CRYER'S SHIRTS NEED TO BE PRESSED.

PLEASE TELL THE DRY CLEANER NO STARCH.

HE HATES IT.

YES, MA'AM.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

YES.

I'M FINE.

[ SNIFFLES ]

[ SOBBING ]

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

YES?

Jim: I'M GOING TO THE OFFICE.

[ SOBS ]

OKAY.

[ CONTINUES SOBBING ]

DAVID, I NEED TO SPEAK TO YOU IN MY OFFICE

WHEN I GET THERE THIS MORNING.

THIS IS MY THIRD MESSAGE TO YOU, BY THE WAY.

[ RECEIVER CLICKS ]

WOW.

THIS IS A REALLY NICE HOUSE.

I AM NOT ASKING YOU FOR ENOUGH MONEY.

[ CHUCKLES ]

WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE?

WAITING FOR MY DEAL TO CLOSE.

WHEN I GET BACK FROM WORK, YOU HAD BETTER BE GONE.

WHEN YOU GET BACK FROM WORK,

YOU HAD BETTER HAVE WHAT THE HELL I ASKED FOR.

I LOVE A MAN IN A SUIT.

WOW.

NO, THAT'S FIELDSTONE vs. LAMBERT, 1976.

IT WAS ARGUED ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPREME COURT.

[ SIGHS ] I'M NEVER GONNA GET THIS.

YES, YOU WILL.

YOU JUST HAVE TO STOP STRESSING OUT ABOUT IT.

IT'S REALLY EASY.

HOW DO YOU REMEMBER THIS?

I LISTEN TO THE PROFESSORS.

[ CHUCKLES ] IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS.

WELL, NO, YOU JUST HAVE TO ‐‐

GOOD MORNING. MORNING.

[ CHUCKLES ]

HI. GOOD MORNING.

DIDN'T THINK I'D HAVE TO SAY IT.

MY SHADOW'S ALREADY GIVEN ME SALUTATIONS.

GOOD MORNING. MORNING.

[ Agitated ] HOW ARE YOU THIS FINE MORNING, CANDACE?

I AM GREAT, WYATT.

I TELL YOU,

FOR SOMEONE WHO JUST CELEBRATED THEIR 48th DAY CLEAN,

YOU SURELY DON'T SEEM HAPPY.

OH. CONGRATULATIONS.

YEAH.

Amanda: COME ON, WYATT. YOU SHOULD BE PROUD.

I'M PROUD OF YOU.

WHAT'S FOR BREAKFAST?

CELINE!

[ FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING ] Celine: YES?

I WANT BREAKFAST.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO YELL.

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE?

HMM. HEROIN?

HEROIN.

HE'LL HAVE AN OMELET AND OATMEAL.

AND THE SAME FOR ME, PLEASE.

YES, THAT'S WHAT I'LL HAVE.

SURE.

HE CHOOSES MY FOOD. HE CHOOSES MY CLOTHES.

HE SLEEPS IN THE SAME ROOM WITH ME.

JUST LIKE A WIFE.

HE'S A PAIN.

JUST LIKE A WIFE.

MY MOM IS A WIFE.

MY DAD'S A HUSBAND.

AND I'M A GIRL, AND YOU'RE A BOY.

WHAT'S UP WITH ALL THIS?

Wyatt: LITTLE SISTER.

IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY, WYATT, JUST SAY IT.

REMEMBER WE LEARNED THAT IN GROUP?

I DON'T NEED YOU REMINDING ME OF GROUP.

HOW DOES YOUR RECOVERY WORK?

MM. I STOP GETTING HIGH.

MY MOTHER STARTED THIS FACILITY

WHEN SHE WENT THROUGH A STINT OF REHAB.

SHE SAW ALL THE THINGS THAT WERE MISSING

IN THE FACILITY THAT SHE WAS IN,

AND THEN SHE CAME OUT AND STARTED

THIS PLACE CALLED A HIGHER HOPE.

YEAH, I'VE SEEN COMMERCIALS ON TV.

YEAH. IT'S PRETTY BIG.

Amanda: IT'S ONE OF THE BEST IN THE COUNTRY.

IT SUCKS.

AND WE HAVE A GREAT SUCCESS RATE.

HOW DID YOU GET THERE?

I STUDIED PSYCHOLOGY IN SCHOOL

AND GOT DRAFTED BY MY FAMILY AS ONE OF THE COUNSELORS.

DRAFTED? YOU MAKE IT SOUND SO AWFUL.

NAH, I LOVE IT.

IT'S NOT WHAT I WANT TO DO WITH THE REST OF MY LIFE,

BUT IT'S GOOD FOR NOW.

ONLY JOB I GOT TO DO WHAT MY DAD WANTS.

HMM.

AND I'VE HAD A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH SOME GREAT PEOPLE,

LIKE YOUR BROTHER HERE.

WHATEVER.

HE LOOKS LIKE HE GIVES YOU HELL.

YOU LOOK LIKE YOU GIVE MEN HELL.

WHAT?

SO, DO YOU LIKE OLD GUYS?

EXCUSE ME?

LIKE MY DAD. OLD GUYS.

GROSS. WILL YOU STOP IT?

CANDACE DOESN'T HAVE A BOYFRIEND.

ALL SHE DOES IS WORK AND STUDY.

ALTHOUGH I THINK YOU AND JEFFREY COULD MAKE A NICE COUPLE.

WHO'S JEFFREY?

UH, I AM.

NOW, THAT I GOT TO SEE.

HE'S SUCH A DORK.

MAYBE THE TWO OF YOU SHOULD GO OUT.

YOU CAN TAKE HIM OUT

AND GIVE HIM SOME OF THAT JUNGLE LOVE.

WYATT.

I‐I'M SORRY.

NO, DON'T APOLOGIZE FOR HIM.

HE SAYS THINGS TO GET A REACTION FROM PEOPLE.

HE'S LIKE A LITTLE BABY WHO NEEDS ATTENTION,

SO THEY MAKE NOISE

BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT YET MASTERED

THE SKILLS OF LANGUAGE.

IT'S VERY CUTE, BUT ALSO DESPERATE.

[ SCOFFS ]

DESPERATE?

LOOKS LIKE YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN A PSYCHOLOGIST.

[ CHUCKLES ] I TOLD YOU.

YOU TWO HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON.

DESPITE MY BROTHER'S RIDICULOUSNESS,

I THINK YOU TWO SHOULD GO OUT.

AMANDA.

Wyatt: WHY NOT?

SHE'S HOT. SHE'S SINGLE.

YOU'RE SINGLE.

ALTHOUGH I DO HAVE A FEELING

SHE LIKES OLD GUYS.

Amanda: NO, SHE DOESN'T.

I THINK IT'S A GREAT IDEA.

HMM.

AND I THINK WE SHOULD GO STUDY IN YOUR ROOM

BECAUSE IT'S GOTTEN QUITE CROWDED IN HERE.

COME ON. LET'S GO.

SURE. THANKS.

SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT JEFFREY?

WILL YOU LET THAT GO, PLEASE?

[ LAUGHS ] COME ON.

I DON'T THINK ANYTHING OF HIM.

YES, YOU DO.

[ SIGHS ] WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I THINK HE LIKES YOU.

WHATEVER.

NO, HE DOES.

AGAIN, WILL YOU LET THIS GO?

NO.

ALL YOU DO IS GO TO SCHOOL

AND WORK ALL KINDS OF CRAZY, SICK NIGHT HOURS.

HOW DO YOU KNOW I WORK CRAZY NIGHT HOURS?

I'VE COME TO YOUR APARTMENT A FEW TIMES LATE AT NIGHT,

AND YOU WEREN'T THERE.

WHY?

SOMETIMES I CAN'T SLEEP.

YOU REALLY SHOULD CALL BEFORE YOU COME.

I KNOW.

I KNOW, BUT WE'RE FRIENDS.

HMM.

SO, YOU'RE STILL NOT SLEEPING?

NO.

WELL, YOU SHOULD TALK TO YOUR PARENTS ABOUT IT.

I CAN'T.

I MEAN, IT WOULD BREAK MY FATHER'S HEART.

SO YOU SACRIFICE YOURSELF?

WYATT ALREADY MADE A MESS OF THINGS. I CAN'T.

AMANDA, THAT'S NOT LIVING.

I KNOW.

WELL, YOU SHOULD TELL YOUR DAD ABOUT IT.

YOU ARE GOOD.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

WAY TO GET ME OFF SUBJECT.

WELL, THAT'S EASY TO DO.

THAT IS SO MEAN.

AMANDA, I'M KIDDING. [ CHUCKLES ]

SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT JEFFREY?

[ SWALLOWS AUDIBLY ]

OKAY.

THAT MAN IS GAY.

[ Chuckling ] WHAT?

NO, HE'S NOT. YES, HE IS.

WELL, ARE YOU SURE?

TRUST ME. I KNOW A GAY MAN WHEN I SEE ONE.

I'VE KNOWN HIM MOST OF MY LIFE. THERE'S NO WAY.

OKAY.

FINE.

GAY?

REALLY? MM‐HMM.

NOW, WILL YOU DROP IT?

HE'S OBVIOUSLY IN THE CLOSET AND UNCOMFORTABLE ABOUT IT.

WOW.

I FEEL SO BAD FOR HIM.

WHY?

HE'S JUST GAY. HE'S NOT DYING.

NO. HAVING TO LIVE IN THE CLOSET.

AND HIS MOM...GOD.

HIS DAD RAN FOR OFFICE TWO YEARS BACK ON FAMILY VALUES,

COMPLETELY OPPOSED TO GAY MARRIAGE.

IN A TOWN LIKE THIS, THAT CAN GET YOU ELECTED.

SOUNDS LIKE YOU BOTH HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM ‐‐

AFRAID TO FACE YOUR FOLKS.

I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS.

FINE.

IT'S OUR LAST DAY HERE. WHAT ARE WE DOING?

I THINK WE SHOULD GO SEE YOUR FATHER'S OFFICE.

REALLY?

I WOULD LOVE TO SEE WHERE THE GOOD JUDGE WORKS.

THAT COULD BE COOL.

UNH. AFTER WE FINISH STUDYING.

[ SIGHS ] PAGE 431.

[ CHUCKLES ]

YOUR DAUGHTER'S STILL OUT THERE.

IS SHE?

MM‐HMM.

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT?

I'M GONNA TAKE YOUR ADVICE AND NOT SAY ANYTHING.

I GOT HOME LAST NIGHT AND LOOKED

AT ALL THOSE BACKED‐UP BILLS FROM WHEN I WAS SICK.

I NEED THIS JOB,

SO I AIN'T GONNA SAY NOTHING.

I'M GONNA PRAY TO GOD THAT THESE PEOPLE DON'T FIND OUT

THAT MY...HELL‐RAISING DAUGHTER IS IN THEIR HOUSE.

I'LL PRAY WITH YOU.

[ DOOR SLAMS ] WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOU?

EVERYBODY WANTS TO POINT FINGERS AT ME.

I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH SECRETS.

WHO ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

AMANDA'S FRIEND.

CANDACE?

AND YOU DIDN'T NEED TO BE SO RUDE TO HER.

SHE WAS RUDE TO ME.

SHE JUST ASKED YOU HOW WAS YOUR STAY.

DOES EVERYBODY IN THIS TOWN KNOW THAT I'M IN REHAB?

WYATT, YOU KNOW THAT WE LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN.

AND THE CIRCLE THAT OUR FAMILIES ARE IN IS EVEN SMALLER.

MY MOTHER NEVER SHOULD HAVE SAID ANYTHING.

WHAT'S THIS ABOUT HER WITH OLD MEN?

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

WELL, YOU MADE IT A BIG DEAL.

IT IS A BIG DEAL. THEN TELL ME WHAT IT IS.

I'M NOT TELLING YOU ANYTHING.

REMEMBER THAT TALK WE HAD

ABOUT KEEPING SECRETS AND THE DAMAGE THAT IT DOES?

OKAY, NO, NO, NO. NO. WE WON'T TALK ABOUT THAT.

BUT WE ARE GONNA TALK ABOUT YOUR AGITATION.

HERE WE GO AGAIN.

NO, NO, NO, NO.

I JUST WANT TO REITERATE IT TO YOU.

THAT IS PART OF THE DETOX.

YOU'RE GONNA BE VERY IRRITABLE, AND YOU NEED TO BE AWARE OF IT.

I AM AWARE OF IT.

I KNOW, BUT THE KEY IS NOT TO MAKE

EVERYONE AROUND YOU AWARE OF IT, AS WELL.

FINE.

OH! [ CLAPS HANDS ]

AND DID I MENTION

TO THANK YOU FOR THAT LITTLE STUNT THAT YOU PULLED?

YOU REMEMBER THAT YESTERDAY?

LOSING YOUR CLOTHES.

YEAH, THAT WAS ‐‐ THAT WAS GREAT.

MY MOM WAS REALLY UPSET ABOUT THAT.

SHE LOOKED LIKE SHE REALLY ENJOYED IT.

AND, LISTEN,

I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING THAT YOUR MOM HASN'T SEEN BEFORE.

AND FROM WHAT I HEAR, SHE'S BEEN AROUND.

WYATT, MNH‐MNH.

OOH. MNH‐MNH.

DID THAT MAKE YOU UPSET?

MAYBE I'M FEELING AGITATED AND I JUST WASN'T AWARE OF IT.

MAYBE I'M TRANSFERRING MY AGITATION TO YOU.

THANK YOU FOR RECOGNIZING THAT.

NO, YOU ARE TRYING TO TRANSFER IT.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THE PAIN IS STILL NOT YOURS.

HERE WE GO.

WHAT? WE'RE JUST TALKING.

I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF IT. AND I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOU.

FINE. FINE.

[ SCOFFS ]

YOU'VE BEEN WITH ME

FOR 24 HOURS A DAY FOR THE PAST MONTH.

MAN!

SOMETHING'S WRONG WITH THIS.

WELL, IF IT MEANS ANYTHING TO YOU,

YOU'RE DOING REALLY WELL.

YOU'RE GONNA SIT IN THAT CHAIR LIKE A DAMN THERAPIST?

THAT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING TO ME AT ALL.

NOTHING.

YOU DO REALIZE THAT EVERYBODY WANTS YOU TO MAKE IT.

[ SCOFFS ] WHO IS "EVERYBODY"?

YOUR MOM, YOUR DAD.

DO YOU NOT GET IT?

THEY DON'T WANT ME TO MAKE IT BECAUSE THEY LOVE ME.

THEY WANT ME TO MAKE IT FOR THEIR IMAGE.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

YOU KNOW WHAT'S FUNNY?

THE FACT THAT YOU CAN SEE ALL OF MY ISSUES,

BUT YOU CAN'T SEE THE SAME WITH YOUR PARENTS.

DON'T TALK ABOUT MY PARENTS.

YOUR MOTHER WATCHES YOU LIKE A HAWK.

NO, NO, NO.

YOU NEED TO KEEP YOUR IMAGE UP TOO, YOU KNOW?

NO, WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT ME.

RIGHT. SO WE CAN TALK ABOUT ME.

THEN WHEN I MENTION YOU,

YOU JUST WANT TO DROP THE SUBJECT.

YEAH, BECAUSE I'M NOT THE ONE WITH THE PROBLEM.

DO YOU THINK SO?

OKAY.

SO, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO WITH THE REST OF THE DAY?

I WANT YOU TO GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE

SO THAT I CAN BE BY MYSELF,

BUT SINCE I KNOW THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN...

YEAH, THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

LOOK AT YOU, SITTING IN THAT DAMN CHAIR.

I'M EXHAUSTED.

ALL RIGHTY. YOU GOT TO SLEEP AT SOME POINT.

YEP. RIGHT NEXT TO YOU.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

COME ON IN. CLOSE THE DOOR. PLEASE.

I'VE BEEN CALLING YOU BACK ALL MORNING.

YEAH, I GOT A LITTLE OVERWHELMED

WHEN I CAME IN HERE THIS MORNING.

ALL RIGHT. WELL, WE'LL DEAL WITH THAT LATER.

THEY SAY I'M BEING OVERLY FAIR IN AN UNFAIR TRIAL.

IT'S ALWAYS GOOD TO READ IN PRINT.

PEOPLE LOVE YOU. YEAH, WELL...

I HAD LUNCH WITH THE GOVERNOR YESTERDAY.

YOU KNOW IT'S HIS LAST TERM.

SO, DID HE ASK YOU? DID HE ASK YOU TO RUN?

UH, NO. NO. HE SAID IT'S TOO SOON.

SAID THE STATE'S NOT READY

FOR AN AFRICAN AMERICAN GOVERNOR.

HE SAID THAT?

WELL, YEAH, IN SO MANY WORDS.

HE SAID THAT I SHOULD RUN FOR LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR.

AND IN EIGHT YEARS, ASSUMING A SECOND TERM,

THEN RUN FOR GOVERNOR.

THAT'S NOT BAD.

SO, WHO DO THEY WANT TO RUN?

THEY WANT YOU TO RUN.

FOR WHAT?

GOVERNOR.

THEY WANT YOU TO RUN.

[ SIGHS ]

I DON'T KNOW. IT'S NOT TO KNOW.

THIS IS WHAT YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR.

WE HAVE A PROBLEM.

WE DO NOT HAVE A PROBLEM.

WE HAVE A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY.

LISTEN TO ME, DAVID.

I KNOW THE PERFECT CAMPAIGN MANAGER.

YOU REALLY SHOULD CONSIDER THIS.

KATHERYN'S FAMILY

IS WELL RESPECTED HERE AND IN WASHINGTON.

WE COULD TAKE THIS ‐‐

WE HAVE A PROBLEM.

NO, WE DON'T.

YES, WE DO.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

CANDACE.

WHO'S CANDACE?

AMANDA'S FRIEND CANDACE.

YOUNG LADY WHO WAS AT YOUR HOUSE LAST NIGHT?

YES.

JIM.

God.

WE MET ONLINE, OKAY?

SHE'S AN ESCORT.

AH, JIM! WE TALKED ABOUT THIS.

I KNOW WE TALKED ABOUT THIS.

I HAVEN'T HAD AN ESCORT IN WHAT, 10 YEARS?

I REALLY HAVEN'T.

YOU KNOW THAT KATHERYN AND I ARE JUST ROOMMATES.

IT'S ALL ABOUT APPEARANCES WITH HER.

HOLD ON.

WE HAVE TO TAKE THIS FROM THE TOP.

I CALLED HER, SHE CAME OVER, WE HAD SEX, WE SAID GOODBYE.

THEN I COME TO MY HOUSE, MY DAUGHTER INTRODUCES ME

TO HER NEW FRIEND FROM SCHOOL,

AND HER NEW FRIEND FROM SCHOOL IS CANDACE, THE ESCORT.

AND NOW SHE'S TRYING...

IS TRYING TO WHAT?

BLACKMAIL ME.

OH, JIM!

PLEASE SAY SOMETHING OTHER THAN "JIM."

[ SIGHS ]

DOESN'T ANYONE IN YOUR FAMILY KNOW ABOUT THIS?

NO. NOT A SOUL.

THIS IS UGLY.

I HAD NO ‐‐

I DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HER.

WELL, APPARENTLY, SHE KNOWS A HELL OF A LOT ABOUT YOU.

SO, WHAT DOES SHE WANT?

SHE WANTS $100,000 AND A SPORTS CAR.

IS THAT IT?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WELL, AT LEAST SHE HAS A PRICE.

WHAT EVIDENCE DOES SHE HAVE?

TEXTS, E‐MAILS.

IS THAT ALL?

DNA.

NOW, WE SEE THESE KIND OF CASES ALL THE TIME,

LAWSUITS BROUGHT IN HOPES OF A SETTLEMENT.

NOW, THE NEGOTIATIONS CAN GET MESSY AS YOU KNOW,

ESPECIALLY WITH YOU ABOUT TO ANNOUNCE

YOU ARE RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR.

I SAY PAY HER.

OH, I HATE BEING IN THIS POSITION.

APPARENTLY, SHE'S HAD YOU IN SEVERAL POSITIONS,

THIS IS JUST THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE.

JUST MAKES ME SO ‐‐ SO...SO ANGRY.

PAY HER.

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO HIDE $100,000

MOVING OUT FROM UNDERNEATH MY WIFE'S NOSE?

YOU KNOW SHE WATCHES OUR FINANCES LIKE THE IRS.

VERY CAREFULLY.

DID I MENTION THAT SHE ALSO WANTS A CAR?

A SPORTS CAR? THAT I'M NOT GONNA DO.

THEN DON'T.

BUT YOU PAY HER THAT $100,000 SO WE CAN MOVE ON.

NO. I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I'M GONNA DO.

I'M GONNA SIT HER LITTLE ASS DOWN IN A CHAIR,

AND I'M GONNA GIVE HER A LITTLE BACKGROUND

ON EXACTLY WHO SHE'S DEALING WITH.

AND I THINK YOU'RE HEADING DOWN THE WRONG ROAD.

NO, NO.

YOU CAN'T THREATEN THESE KIND OF PEOPLE.

THEY'VE GOT NOTHING TO LOSE.

YES, THEY DO.

FREEDOM.

FREEDOM IS SOMETHING TO LOSE.

THAT AND THE ABILITY TO BREATHE.

OKAY.

WE'LL TRY THIS YOUR WAY.

BUT IF IT DOESN'T WORK, I'LL HANDLE IT MY WAY.

I'LL SEE WHAT I CAN DIG UP ON HER.

[ DOOR CLOSES ] [ SIGHS ]

JIM, JIM, JIM, JIM.

YOU HAVE A LOVELY HOME.

WHY, THANK YOU, CANDACE.

THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING TO DO.

I BET.

[ SIGHS ]

[ INHALES DEEPLY ]

NO. CAN'T SMELL HIM.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?

WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS SNEAKING AROUND?

I WORK HERE,

AND I'M TRYING TO KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR THUGGISH ASS.

NOW GET OUT OF THIS WOMAN'S BEDROOM.

YOU EVER WANTED TO LIVE LIKE THIS, MAMA?

I'M NOT PLAYING WITH YOU.

[ CHUCKLES ]

IS THIS THE CLOSET?

OH!

OH, MY GOODNESS.

YOU'RE TRYING MY PATIENCE, CANDACE.

Wow.

SHE HAS CLOTHES WITH TAGS STILL ON THEM.

THIS IS SO UNFAIR.

SO UNFAIR.

AMANDA SAYS SHE'S NEVER EATEN LEFTOVERS

[CHUCKLES] OR HAD ROACHES.

SHE WENT TO RESTAURANTS WHEN SHE WAS A LITTLE GIRL.

SHE GOT A HORSE ON HER 5th BIRTHDAY

AND A CAR ON HER 16th BIRTHDAY.

THEY VACATION TWICE A YEAR.

VAIL AND TELLURIDE FOR CHRISTMAS AND VENICE.

ARE YOU CRAZY?

[ CHUCKLES LIGHTLY ]

AMANDA'S GRANDFATHER ‐‐ KATHERYN'S FATHER ‐‐

WAS WORTH $200 MILLION WHEN HE DIED.

IT WAS SPLIT BETWEEN FOUR CHILDREN,

KATHERYN INCLUDED.

GIRL.

I WANT TO LIVE LIKE THIS.

GET THAT WOMAN'S JEWELRY OFF YOUR HANDS.

YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A HOUSE LIKE THIS.

I DIDN'T SAY I WANT A HOUSE LIKE THIS.

I WANT THIS HOUSE.

[ SCOFFS ]

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, LITTLE GIRL.

WHATEVER YOU ARE PLANNING IS GONNA BACKFIRE IN YOUR FACE.

YOU KEEP ON PLAYING IN THE DEEP END,

AND YOU'RE GONNA DROWN.

NOW, I'M GONNA TELL YOU ONE MORE TIME

TO GET YOUR BUTT OUT OF THIS WOMAN'S BEDROOM

BEFORE I DRAG YOU OUT.

YOU HEAR?

YOU'LL GET FIRED.

AND WHUPPING YOUR ASS WILL BE WORTH IT.

WOW.

[ Deep voice ] YES, MASSA.

I'S A LET YOU GET ON BACK TO CLEANING UP N‐‐

I WISH YOU WOULD.

AND I WILL KILL YOU DEAD RIGHT HERE.

[ CHUCKLES ]

[ POUNDS TABLE ] [ Normal voice ] OH, MY GOD.

YOU ARE SO PATHETIC.

YOU GET OUT OF THESE FOLKS' HOUSE RIGHT NOW.

AND I MEAN IT.

OR WHAT?

YOU'RE GONNA TELL THEM

THAT I'M YOUR DAUGHTER AND LOSE YOUR JOB?

BUT YOU KNOW YOU NEED THIS JOB.

[ GASPS ] LET GO OF ME!

Shh!

YOU HAVE LOST YOUR MIND.

NO.

[ Voice breaking ] I NEVER FOUND IT, MAMA.

AFTER GROWING UP IN A HOUSE WITH YOUR CRAZY ASS.

NOW YOU DO YOUR JOB AND YOU CLEAN IT UP!

NOW.

[ BIRDS CHIRPING ]

Amanda: WYATT.

Wyatt: WHAT?

WHERE'S JEFFREY?

NOT TOO FAR, I'M SURE.

SO...

YOU LEAVE IN THE MORNING?

[ CLICKS TONGUE ] NOT SOON ENOUGH.

DON'T YOU LIKE SPENDING TIME WITH US?

WHATEVER.

I LOVE YOU, WYATT.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

NOTHING!

CAN'T I JUST SAY I LOVE YOU?

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

OKAY.

IS JEFFREY GAY?

WHAT?

NO.

[ CHUCKLES ] I DIDN'T THINK SO.

WHY DID YOU ASK THAT?

CANDACE THINKS HE IS.

AND WHY DOES SHE THINK THAT?

I DON'T KNOW.

[ FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING, KNOCK ON DOOR ]

YOU READY?

YES.

WHERE ARE YOU GUYS GOING? TO VISIT DAD.

WHY?

CANDACE WANTS TO SEE WHERE HE WORKS.

MM‐HMM.

WELL, ISN'T THAT SPECIAL?

LET'S GO.

JUST LEAVE IT, HANNA. I NEED TO LAY DOWN.

IT'S FINE. JUST LEAVE IT.

YES, MA'AM.

OHH!

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'LL GO AND GET SOME ‐‐

NO.

JUST HELP ME TO THE BED, PLEASE.

ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE OKAY?

I'M FINE.

I JUST GET A LITTLE LIGHT‐HEADED COMING UP THE STAIRS,

THAT'S ALL.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT. IT'S FINE.

I CAN MAKE YOU SOME TEA.

IT'LL SETTLE YOUR STOMACH.

MY STOMACH IS FINE.

I JUST THOUGHT YOU MIGHT BE A LITTLE NAUSEOUS.

WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT?

I'M JUST A LITTLE WINDED.

WELL, WHEN I USED TO GET WINDED ON TUESDAYS AND FRIDAYS,

MY STOMACH WOULD ACT UP, TOO.

I'M FINE.

CAN YOU LEAVE ME, PLEASE?

YES, MA'AM.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

WYATT!

WYATT.

WHAT?

I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE ASLEEP.

[ SIGHS ] WHAT DO YOU WANT?

LUNCH IS READY.

I'LL BE DOWN IN A LITTLE BIT.

OKAY.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

COME ON IN.

DADDY.

HEY, SWEETHEART. WHAT ARE YOU...DOING HERE?

I WANTED TO SHOW CANDACE WHERE YOU WORKED.

HI.

HI.

THIS IS SO GREAT FOR HER, DAD.

SHE'S SMART ENOUGH TO BE A JUDGE ONE DAY.

REALLY?

YEAH. WILL YOU STOP?

NO.

THE PROFESSOR SAYS SHE'S ONE OF

THE SMARTEST PEOPLE HE'S EVER TAUGHT.

IS THAT SO? MM‐HMM.

YOU'RE EMBARRASSING ME NOW.

SO, THESE ARE ALL THE HUGE CASES HE'S TRIED.

BABY, I DON'T THINK THAT SHE'S REALLY INTERESTED IN THAT.

SURE SHE IS.

I AM.

ALTHOUGH SHE'S ALREADY READ

EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU ON THE INTERNET.

REALLY?

YEAH.

FROM HOW LONG AGO?

I DON'T KNOW. ABOUT SIX MONTHS?

SEVEN.

I FEEL LIKE I KNOW YOU VERY WELL.

DAD, CANDACE HAS A LOT OF QUESTIONS

ABOUT FINLEY vs. POTTER.

HERE IT IS.

SHE'S WRITING AN ESSAY ON IT,

AND SINCE YOU WERE THE JUDGE, DO YOU THINK THAT YOU CAN ‐‐

SWEETHEART, I'M VERY BUSY HERE.

COME ON, DAD. HELP HER TONIGHT.

IT'S HER LAST NIGHT AT THE HOUSE.

AND SHE SAID IF YOU HELPED HER, SHE'D HELP ME ACE MY EXAMS.

AND I REALLY NEED THE HELP. PLEASE?

I WON'T BE A BOTHER. I SWEAR.

MAYBE WE COULD DO IT AT THE HOUSE IN THE OFFICE.

I DID SOME RESEARCH ON...

HI.

AMANDA AND, UM, CANDACE?

MM‐HMM.

SO, WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING HERE?

TRYING TO CONVINCE MY DAD TO HELP CANDACE WITH HER ESSAY.

WELL, YOUR DADDY'S A VERY BUSY MAN.

THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL THEM.

WELL, HE'S NOT BUSY AFTER‐HOURS AT HOME.

JUST GIVE HER AN HOUR.

PLEASE? I ONLY NEED AN HOUR, MAYBE AN HOUR AND A HALF.

OKAY.

I WILL MEET YOU AT THE HOUSE LATER.

[ DOOR SQUEAKS ] THANK YOU.

I'LL SHOW YOU HIS COURTROOM.

THANK YOU. BYE!

BYE.

SHE SET ME UP. WHAT?

SHE'D BEEN RESEARCHING ME,

STUDYING ME FOR SEVEN MONTHS.

SHE SET ME UP. SHE'S CALCULATING.

I CAN DEAL WITH CALCULATING.

THAT BITCH SET ME UP!

BUT I GOT THIS.

I GOT IT. MM.

[ CRICKETS CHIRPING ]

[ DOG BARKING ]

[ SIGHS ]

HUAH!

♪♪ IT'S ALMOST 7:00 ♪♪

♪♪ AND YOU GONNA BE LATE FOR BIBLE STUDY ♪♪

HA!

[ CHUCKLES ] WHAT TIME IS IT?

COME ON. WAKE UP. WHAT TIME IS IT?

IT'S 7:00.

YES, I AM GONNA BE LATE FOR BIBLE STUDY.

[ LAUGHS ]

SO, HOW'S THE TOW‐TRUCK BUSINESS?

I DON'T KNOW.

TWO TOWS. YOU KNOW, IT'S GOING.

DON'T YOU WORRY ABOUT THOSE BILLS.

I JUST WISH I COULD HIT THE LOTTERY OR SOMETHING.

MM‐HMM.

PAY THIS ALL OFF FOR YOU

SO YOU WOULDN'T BE STRESSED OUT, YOU KNOW?

YOU ALREADY MOVED BACK IN HERE

TO HELP ME TAKE CARE OF THESE BILLS.

I'M JUST GLAD I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE HOUSE IN YOUR NAME.

IF IT GETS TOO BAD, THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO TAKE IT FROM US.

LOOK, IT AIN'T GONNA GET THAT BAD, MAMA.

I KNOW.

BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY.

AND, LISTEN, GOD WILL MAKE A WAY.

SO, HOW YOU FEELING?

GOOD. YEAH?

I'M GOOD.

WHEW! BUT YOUR SISTER ‐‐

LORD, HAVE MERCY.

OH, THE GOLDEN CHILD. WHAT SHE DO THIS TIME?

SHE'S STILL AT THOSE FOLKS' HOUSE.

SUPPOSED TO LEAVE TOMORROW.

I MEAN, THAT'S GOOD. RIGHT?

[ SCOFFS ] HOPEFULLY, SHE DON'T COME BACK.

WHEW, SHE PISSED ME OFF. SHE MADE ME SO MAD.

I THOUGHT WE TALKED ABOUT THIS, MOM.

DON'T LET HER GET YOU ALL STRESSED OUT ABOUT THAT.

I KNOW. I KNOW.

BUT IF IT AIN'T ONE THING, IT'S ANOTHER.

[ SCOFFS ]

COME ON.

I'LL TAKE YOU TO CHURCH.

YOU GONNA STAY WITH ME?

I MEAN, I SAID I'LL TAKE YOU. I DIDN'T SAY ALL THAT.

NOW, YOU CAN COME TO CHURCH SOMETIME.

I KNOW. I KNOW.

WHEN YOU COMING?

[ CHUCKLES ]

I'LL COME SUNDAY. HOW 'BOUT THAT?

REALLY? YEAH?

OH! HALLELUJAH!

[ BOTH LAUGH ]

GOOD.

YOU HAPPY? YES.

MWAH!

COME ON, NOW. DON'T MAKE ME LATE.

YES, MA'AM. [ CHUCKLES ]

I NEED SOME HOLY WATER OR SOMETHING.

[ LAUGHS ]

YOU'RE SILLY. COME ON. WHEW!

[ CRICKETS CHIRPING ]

I CANNOT BELIEVE

SHE'S NEVER WORN THIS $1,500 DRESS.

GET OUT OF HERE.

I SAW YOU WITH MY FATHER LAST NIGHT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

I SAW YOU COME OUT OF THE STUDY.

[ SIGHS ]

HE WAS SHOWING ME SOME CASES THAT HE HAD TRIED.

I BET.

GET OUT OF HERE.

SO, YOU'RE MAKING OUT WITH MY FATHER.

MAN.

WAIT TILL MY MOTHER FINDS OUT ABOUT YOU TWO.

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

HERE.

WHAT'S THIS?

A FRIEND OF MINE.

I NEED YOU TO GO GET SOMETHING FOR ME

AND BRING IT BACK TO ME.

[ SCOFFS ] REALLY?

YEAH. GO GET IT NOW. I WANT IT BACK IN AN HOUR.

[ CHUCKLES ]

WHAT'S SO FUNNY?

YOU, DUMB ASS.

DON'T LAUGH AT ME.

[ CHUCKLES ] SORRY.

IT'S JUST REALLY HARD NOT TO.

DON'T...LAUGH AT ME.

YOU ARE SO RIDICULOUS AND DESPERATE.

YOU SAY ALL OF THIS TO TRY AND GET DRUGS.

YOU'RE FOOLISH.

YOU'VE BEEN HANDED EVERY DAMN THING IN THIS WORLD

AND YOU NEED DRUGS?

YOU'RE AN IDIOT.

[ Chuckling ] WHAT?

[ Normal voice ] YOU GONNA HIT ME? DO IT.

DO IT! I'M INTO THAT SORT OF THING.

DO IT, YOU BITCH‐ASS PUNK.

[ CHUCKLES ]

THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

NOW, IF YOU WANT TO GET HIGH,

YOU DO IT ON YOUR OWN TIME.

IF YOU WANT TO BE COOL WITH ME, THEN BE COOL.

BUT DON'T YOU EVER, EVER THREATEN ME AGAIN

BECAUSE I WILL YOU DESTROY YOU WORSE THAN HEROIN.

NOW GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE.

YOU WANT MORE?

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

HI.

SO, I BROUGHT SOME BOOKS.

WE COULD START AT THE OPENING OF THE TRIAL WHERE PROSECUTOR ‐‐

STOP. STOP.

HERE.

OKAY.

WHERE'S MY MONEY?

I ACTUALLY WANT TO TALK ABOUT ANOTHER TRIAL FIRST.

MM.

[ CHUCKLES ]

THIS CASE ACTUALLY HAPPENED

WHEN I WAS BRAND NEW TO THE BENCH.

THERE WAS THIS GUY WHO WAS ACCUSED

OF ABDUCTING AND MURDERING SEVERAL WOMEN.

THERE WERE LOTS OF WITNESSES. THERE WAS DNA.

AND THIS GUY HATED, HATED WOMEN.

SO MUCH EVIDENCE AGAINST HIM THAT THE WHOLE TOWN FIGURED

THIS WAS JUST AN OPEN‐AND‐SHUT CASE,

BUT AS THE JUDGE ON THE CASE,

I DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD BE FAIR TO CONVICT.

SO I SET ASIDE THE JURY'S VERDICT

BECAUSE THE DEFENSE HAD PROVIDED SO MUCH REASONABLE DOUBT.

WHAT COULD I DO?

NOW, OF COURSE, THE TOWN WAS ALL UP IN ARMS.

EVERYBODY WAS ANGRY, BUT I HAD TO DO IT.

I KNEW HE WAS GUILTY,

BUT IN ORDER FOR JUSTICE TO BE SERVED,

I HAD TO SET THIS MAN FREE.

DO YOU KNOW EVERY CHRISTMAS, EVERY BIRTHDAY,

EVERY HOLIDAY, HE STILL SENDS ME A CARD?

THE CARD SAYS, "THANK YOU."

AND IT ALSO SAYS SHOULD I EVER HAVE A PROBLEM,

ESPECIALLY ONE WITH A WOMAN,

THAT I SHOULD NOT HESITATE TO CALL HIM.

NOW [CHUCKLES] I'VE NOT ACTUALLY DONE THAT.

I HAVEN'T CONTACTED HIM AT ALL BECAUSE I THINK, UP UNTIL NOW,

I HAVEN'T REALLY HAD ANY REASON TO.

YOU THINK DEATH SCARES ME?

MAYBE JUST A LITTLE BIT.

[ SCOFFS ]

I GREW UP AROUND DEATH ‐‐

MURDERS, DRIVE‐BYS, GANG STABBINGS.

I'VE SEEN IT ALL.

[ CHUCKLES ]

[ LOCK CLICKS ]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

NO, NO. NO.

NO. YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE.

YOU NEED TO GO.

CANDACE.

MM‐HMM?

YOU NEED TO GO. NO.

THIS IS MY ‐‐

IT'S MY HOUSE HERE. I KNOW.

IT'S EXCITING.

YOU SEE, YOU REALLY WANT IT. COME HERE.

NO. IT'S NOT ‐‐

CANDACE. YOU NEED TO GO.

NO, NO.

[ GRUNTS ]

CANDACE. STOP IT.

NO. NO!

MM‐HMM.

I'M TELL ‐‐ NO.

YES.

I'M NOT INTERESTED IN DOING ‐‐

NO. Shh!

DO YOU KNOW THIS IS THE MOST EXCITEMENT I GET

SINCE I'VE LAST SEEN YOU.

THIS IS MY HOUSE. NO. MM.

COME ON. CANDACE. NO. STOP IT. STOP IT!

STOP.

STOP.

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

NEXT ON "THE HAVES AND THE HAVE NOTS"...

WHO IS THIS GIRL?

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW

IS THAT SHE'S A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE SOLVED.

WHAT'S SO PRIVATE?

WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO KNOW?

HE SHOULD NOT HAVE COME HOME. IT'S TOO SOON.

WELL, GET HIM THE HELL OUT OF HERE, THEN.

IF YOU EVER

MAKE A COMMENT ABOUT ME LIKE THAT AGAIN,

I WILL BREAK YOUR NECK.

WELL, WHEN I MARRIED YOU,

YOU WEREN'T HALF THE WOMAN YOU ARE TODAY.

YOU'VE ALWAYS DELIVERED HALF THE SIZE THAT I PREFER,

BUT I MADE DO.
