HE WENT TO PICK HER UP. HE SHOULD BE HERE ANY MINUTE.

MNH‐MNH. NO, NO.

I'D LIKE TO SIT NEXT TO WYATT.

JEFFERY, WHAT IS THAT YOU'RE WEARING?

OH, IT'S ‐‐ IT'S JUST A BRACELET.

WELL, TAKE IT OFF BEFORE YOUR FATHER SEES IT.

IT'S JUST A BRACELET.

WHERE DID YOU GET THAT?

I GAVE IT TO HIM.

WHY WOULD YOU GIVE HIM A BRACELET?

IS THIS THE BRACELET YOUR GRANDFATHER GAVE YOU?

YEAH. WHY THE HELL WOULD I WANT IT?

TAKE IT OFF.

IT'S JUST A BRACELET.

Jeffery: NO, NO, NO. IT'S ‐‐ IT'S FINE, WYATT.

MY DAD DOESN'T LIKE ME WEARING STUFF LIKE THAT.

THEN WHY THE HELL DID YOU TAKE IT FROM ME?

HELLO, HELLO.

DARLING.

‐MOM. ‐HELLO, HONEY.

WYATT.

HI, VERONICA, JEFFERY.

HELLO, SWEETHEART.

SO, WHAT'S GOING ON? I'M ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT.

WE RODE ALL THE WAY HERE, AND HE DIDN'T SAY A WORD.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

YEAH. THE ONLY TIME WE DO THESE FAMILY MEETINGS

IS WHEN I'M IN TROUBLE.

OR ME.

YOU'RE NEVER IN TROUBLE.

Katheryn: NO ONE IS IN TROUBLE.

YOUR FATHER HAS SOMETHING HE'D LIKE TO SAY.

YES, THANK YOU.

UM, I THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT

TO HAVE MY ENTIRE FAMILY TOGETHER.

‐I KNOW WHAT THIS IS. ‐[ LAUGHS ]

YES, I THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT TO GATHER EVERYONE ‐‐

MY FAMILY, MY LOVED ONES, MY DEAR FRIENDS ‐‐

BECAUSE, WELL, I'VE DECIDED TO ‐‐

[ DOORBELL RINGS ]

WHO COULD THAT BE?

EVERYONE'S HERE, RIGHT?

MAYBE ANOTHER LOVED ONE.

♪♪♪♪

WHO IS IT, HANNA?

♪♪♪♪

HI.

HI!

AMANDA, LOOK WHO'S HERE.

♪♪♪♪

I'M SORRY I'M LATE.

GETTING A CAB IN THIS TOWN IS AWFUL.

I HAVE GOT TO GET A CAR.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

Amanda: I INVITED HER.

IS THAT OKAY?

AMANDA, THIS IS A PRIVATE MOMENT.

YES, THIS IS, UH, JUST FOR FAMILY, SWEETHEART.

WELL, THIS IS AN ECCENTRIC‐LOOKING FAMILY.

I WANTED HER TO COME, OKAY?

SURE, IT'S FINE.

HAVE A SEAT, CANDACE.

WOULD YOU LIKE SOMETHING TO DRINK?

YES.

HANNA ‐‐ THAT'S YOUR MAID'S NAME, RIGHT?

HANNA, CAN I HAVE SOME SPARKLING WATER, PLEASE?

THANK YOU.

♪♪♪♪

♪♪♪♪

GIRL IS OUT OF HER DAMN MIND.

[ SIGHS ]

‐I CAN'T DO IT. I CAN'T DO IT. ‐YES, YOU CAN.

NOW I'M GONNA HAVE TO GO BACK OUT THERE AND TELL THEM PEOPLE.

[ Voice breaking ] DID YOU HEAR WHAT SHE SAID TO ME?

THAT GIRL IS...

Shh! NO. JUST CALM DOWN.

YOU'RE JUST UPSET ABOUT EVERYTHING, HONEY.

IT'S TOO MUCH!

‐IT'S TOO MUCH. ‐I KNOW.

Amanda: COME ON, DAD. TELL US.

I ALREADY KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GONNA SAY, SO SAY IT.

JIM?

I HAVE DECIDED TO RUN FOR GOVERNOR.

[ Laughing ] I KNEW IT!

I KNEW IT. OH, DAD, THAT'S GREAT, DAD.

‐DIDN'T I TELL YOU, CANDACE? ‐YOU SURE DID.

WELL, WE NEED TO GET THE CHAMPAGNE AND TOAST TO YOU.

HOLD ON, HOLD ON. WHY ARE WE CELEBRATING THIS?

BECAUSE THIS IS A GOOD THING.

HAVE WE NOT FORGOTTEN HOW REALLY SCREWED UP THIS FAMILY IS?

SO I WAS SUMMONED DOWN HERE

TO BE TOLD YOU'RE RUNNING FOR GOVERNOR?

I'VE HAD ENOUGH SCRUTINY GROWING UP WITH THIS LAST NAME.

THIS IS JUST GREAT.

JUST GREAT.

COME ON, JEFFERY.

GO ON, SON.

I LOVE YOU.

OH, YEAH. I‐I LOVE YOU, TOO, MOM.

AND GOOD NIGHT.

WELL, I'M HAPPY YOU'RE RUNNING.

YEAH, I AM, TOO.

[ CHUCKLES ] CONGRATULATIONS.

WYATT, YOU HAVE GOT TO STOP FLYING OFF THE HANDLE LIKE THIS.

DON'T TELL ME TO STOP FLYING OFF THE HANDLE.

WHAT IS IT THIS TIME?

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THIS WILL DO TO THIS FAMILY?

THIS IS A GOOD THING!

NO, IT ISN'T.

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY GONNA DESTROY THIS FAMILY.

HOW SO?

HOW SO?

LOOK AT YOU, WEARING THESE ROSE‐COLORED GLASSES,

ACTING LIKE YOUR GLASS IS ALWAYS HALF‐FULL.

YOU JUST HAVE NO IDEA, MAN.

I'M LOST ON THIS ONE.

YOU'RE SO SELFISH.

AND DON'T YOU THINK IT'S SELFISH TO NOT STAND WITH YOUR FATHER?

[ SCOFFS ] NO.

NO?

NO, NOT AT ALL.

OKAY, THIS IS BEYOND ME.

WELL, MY FATHER ‐‐ HE'S NO CHOIRBOY.

MY SISTER ‐‐ SHE CAN'T HANDLE ANY KIND OF PRESSURE.

AND THEN THERE'S MY MOTHER...

[SCOFFS]

...WHO'S LIVING IN SOME KIND OF FANTASY LAND.

GO ON. YOU FORGOT TO MENTION YOU.

WHY AM I EVEN TALKING TO YOU?

‐CALM DOWN, OKAY? ‐CALM DOWN?

THIS IS GONNA BE OKAY, WYATT.

I THINK YOU'RE OVERREACTING.

OVERREACTING?

YES!

WELL, LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE WHOLE STATE OF GEORGIA

FINDS OUT THEIR FUTURE GOVERNOR, JIM CRYER,

IS SLEEPING WITH CANDACE.

HUH?

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I SAW THEM.

YOU SAW THEM DOING WHAT?

I SAW THEM GO INTO THE STUDY, TOGETHER.

WERE THEY HAVING SEX?

I DON'T KNOW.

BUT I SAW THEM GO INTO THE STUDY TOGETHER,

AND THE DOOR CLOSED,

AND THEY WERE IN THERE FOR A LONG TIME.

OKAY.

WELL, THAT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING, WYATT.

‐ARE YOU AN IDIOT? ‐NO. ARE YOU AN IDIOT?

IF YOU'RE GONNA COME WITH THOSE KIND OF ALLEGATIONS,

YOU BETTER HAVE SOME PROOF.

MM. PROOF.

I'M GOOD AT GETTING PROOF,

LIKE THE PROOF I HAVE ABOUT YOU.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

IT'S MY "GET OUT OF JAIL FREE" CARD.

I CAN USE IT WHEN I NEED IT.

♪♪♪♪

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

OKAY, MR. WYATT.

OKAY.

I'M SORRY. I HAVE TO GO.

Katheryn: WILL YOU BE STAYING FOR DINNER, CANDACE?

NO. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT.

AS A MATTER OF FACT, I HAVE TO GO NOW.

CAN I CALL THE CAB?

WAIT. I THOUGHT YOU WERE STAYING.

I WISH I COULD, BUT I HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT MEETING,

AND IF I'M NOT THERE,

IT COULD CHANGE A LOT OF PEOPLE'S LIVES.

WELL, THAT'S SOME PRESSURE FOR A COLLEGE STUDENT.

INDEED. [ CHUCKLES ]

WELL, NEXT TIME.

OKAY. I'LL SEE YOU SOON.

UM, I'M SORRY, EVERYBODY.

CONGRATULATIONS, MR. CRYER.

[ LAUGHS ]

WHERE'S THAT MAID OF YOURS?

CAN SHE MAYBE CALL A CAB FOR ME?

[ SIGHS ] POSSIBLY, YES.

THANK YOU.

I HAVE TO GET BACK TO THE OFFICE, SWEETHEART.

♪♪♪♪

IS, UH, NO ONE STAYING FOR DINNER?

I CALLED THE STAFF IN ON THEIR DAY OFF.

UM...

IT'S FINE.

WE'LL CELEBRATE WITH YOU, JIM.

OH, KATHERYN, THE TABLE LOOKS AMAZING.

ARE THOSE AMARYLLIS?

YES. PLANTED THEM IN THE GARDEN.

HELLO, ROSE?

HI. THIS IS CANDACE.

I WAS TALKING TO YOU TODAY

ABOUT THE WORK YOU DO WITH ABUSED ANIMALS.

WELL, ACTUALLY, THAT'S NOT WHAT I WANTED TO SPEAK TO YOU ABOUT.

I HAVE A STORY FOR YOU THAT WILL SHAKE THIS TOWN.

IT'S ABOUT JUDGE CRYER.

CAN WE MEET?

♪♪♪♪

GREAT.

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

‐ROSE ‐‐ ‐THE REPORTER?

SHE CALLED MY OFFICE, SAID SHE HAD A FEW QUESTIONS

SHE WOULD LIKE TO ASK ME ABOUT HOW I FEEL

ABOUT ELECTED OFFICIALS AND PROSTITUTES.

MAMA ‐‐

[ Voice breaking ] YOU MORTGAGED MY HOUSE!

HERE'S YOUR MONEY.

PICK IT UP NOW!

I THINK DAVID IS HAVING AN AFFAIR.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING? GIVE ME THAT.

SNOOPING WILL GET YOU FIRED.

IS THIS CANDACE?

I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING UP WITH THAT GIRL.
