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

DAD, I'M HAVING A REAL HARD TIME WITH THIS.

YOU'RE TELLING ME YOU WANT TO GET HIGH AGAIN?

THE OTHER DAY, YOU SAID YOU WANTED A GUN.

I'M GONNA KILL MY PARENTS.

YOU CAN'T DIE, BENNY.

WE ARE FIGHTERS.

DON'T MAKE ME BEAT YOUR ASS, CELINE.

OH, I'M SO SCARED.

I'M AFTER JIM.

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.

SHE'S HIS MOTHER.

I'M A MOTHER, JIM.

YOU GONNA TAKE ME TO COURT?

THAT'S YOUR SON LAYING THERE!

THAT'S YOUR SON! YOU GONNA TAKE ME TO COURT

SO SOME JUDGE CAN TELL ME TO TAKE HIS LIFE?

TONY, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?

I'M DOING WHAT'S BEST FOR BENNY.

HOW THE HELL DO YOU KNOW WHAT'S BEST FOR HIM?

YOU NEVER BEEN IN HIS LIFE!

HE WOULD NOT WANT TO BE A VEGETABLE.

YOU DON'T KNOW HIM! HE'S MY BLOOD.

AND THAT AIN'T NEVER MEANT A DAMN THING TO YOU

UNTIL YOU NEEDED HIS BLOOD TO MATCH YOURS.

THIS IS GONNA HAPPEN, HANNA.

YOU NEED TO FACE IT.

AND YOU NEED TO FACE THE FACT THAT I WILL MEET YOUR SOUL

AT THE GATES OF HELL BEFORE I LET YOU TOUCH MY SON.

THAT'S WHY WE'RE GOING TO COURT.

WHAT KIND OF MAN ARE YOU?

YOU NEVER DONE NOTHING FOR THIS BOY ‐‐ NOTHING!

AND NOW YOU'RE TRYING TO KILL HIM.

HE IS DEAD! HE IS NOT!

YES, HE IS. YOU HEARD THE DOCTOR.

THEY'RE NOT GOD!

WELL, NEITHER ARE YOU.

NO, I'M NOT.

BUT YOU TRYING TO PLAY GOD WITH HIS LIFE.

YOU THE ONE TRYING TO PLAY GOD.

HOW YOU FIGURE THAT?

KEEPING HIM ALIVE ON THESE MACHINES.

THAT'S NOT LIVING, HANNA. IT'S NOT!

YOU'RE NOT JESUS.

I NEVER SAID I WAS.

WELL, YOU'RE OVER HERE TRYING TO RAISE HIM FROM THE DEAD.

HE'S NOT DEAD!

YOU LOOK AT HIM!

LOOK AT HIM!

THAT'S YOUR FLESH AND BLOOD LAYING THERE.

YOU LOOK AT HIM.

I SEE HIM, HANNA.

[ SOBS ]

HE AIN'T COMING BACK.

HE'S NOT.

LOOK AT THEM MACHINES.

HE HAS NO BRAIN ACTIVITY.

HE'S DEAD. YOU'RE JUST NOT GETTING IT.

YOU'RE NOT GETTING IT!

NOTHING OF HIS, YOU HEAR ME?

YOU'RE NOT GETTING NOTHING OF HIS!

WE'LL SEE TOMORROW IN COURT.

I'M NOT GOING TO COURT.

NO? THAT WILL MAKE IT EASIER.

YOU THINK? YEAH.

THEN WE HAVE NOTHING TO FIGHT FOR.

YEAH, I'M NOT GOING NOWHERE.

AIN'T NO JUDGE IN HELL GONNA MAKE ME UNPLUG MY CHILD.

HE'S MY CHILD, TOO.

OH, NOW YOU WANT TO CLAIM HIM?

YOU CAN'T DENY HE'S MINE.

GET OUT!

HE LOOKS JUST LIKE ME.

YOU'RE COUNTING ON THAT, AIN'T YOU?

WHAT?

COUNTING ON HIM LOOKING JUST LIKE YOU.

COUNTING ON HIM LOOKING JUST LIKE YOU

SO THAT HE CAN BE A MATCH FOR YOUR KIDNEY.

YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW IF HE'S A MATCH, TONY.

I'M DOING WHAT'S BEST FOR BENNY.

NO, YOU DOING WHAT'S BEST FOR YOU.

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?

ALL THE EVIL THAT YOU PLANNING FOR HIM IS GONNA BE DONE TO YOU.

GET OUT!

HANNA. NO, YOU KNOW WHAT?

DO WHAT YOU'VE ALWAYS DONE ‐‐ DISA‐DAMN‐PEAR.

YOU'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND.

I UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING.

I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU A LOW‐DOWN, DIRTY BASTARD.

YOU'RE THE MOST CUSSINGEST CHRISTIAN I EVER MET.

MM‐HMM. THAT'S ALL RIGHT. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?

YOU TAKING ME BACK TO THE DAYS WHEN I WASN'T A CHRISTIAN,

WHERE'S YOUR SON?

YOU HAVE TO SHOW UP.

I DON'T HAVE TO DO NOTHING BUT STAY BLACK AND DIE.

THAT'S VERY MATURE. WHATEVER.

YOU HAVE TO SHOW UP.

AIN'T GOING NOWHERE. THEN HE WINS.

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?

WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE, CANDACE?

GOOD, BECAUSE I'D HAVE ENOUGH TO SAY FOR THE BOTH OF US.

COME ON. LET'S GO TO A CLUB.

ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO GO TO A CLUB

WE'RE GOING TO A GAY CLUB, JEFFERY. NOW, COME ON.

OH, CANDACE, NO, NO.

YEAH.

[ CHUCKLES ] GET UP, AMANDA.

SHE'S NOT THERE.

WHERE IS SHE?

SHE HAD A BAD DREAM AND SHE LEFT.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

YOU'RE NOT THE LEAST BIT CONCERNED ABOUT HER?

DOES IT LOOK LIKE I HAVE ROOM

TO DEAL WITH HER PROBLEMS RIGHT NOW?

I'M SORRY, BYRON.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

NO.

AND YOU'RE JUST TRYING TO BE NICE TO ME.

THIS ISN'T EVEN LIKE ME.

I JUST BEEN DEALING WITH SO MUCH.

HOW COULD YOU KNOW?

I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN SOMETHING.

I DIDN'T KNOW WHY YOU WERE HANGING AROUND,

BUT I...I KNEW IT WAS SOMETHING.

THIS IS PERSONAL TO ME.

I GET IT.

I'M GONNA FIND HIM, HANNA.

HELP ME.

I TOLD YOU, BYRON.

I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS.

RIGHT. SORRY.

IT'S THE, UH, DETECTIVE IN ME.

EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE.

EVERY DAY OF HIS LIFE, I'VE BEEN AFRAID FOR HIM.

FROM THE TIME HE STARTED TO WALK, I DIDN'T WANT HIM TO FALL.

WHEN HE HAD A FEVER... WHEN HE MOVED...

...AROUND THE CORNER, MIND YOU.

BUT NEVER AS AFRAID AS I AM FOR HIM RIGHT NOW.

IT'S GONNA BE ALL RIGHT, HANNA.

IT'S GONNA BE ALL RIGHT.

I AM RELAXED. I JUST...

IF THAT'S RELAXED, YOU NEED AN ENEMA.

I DON'T LIKE THIS PLACE.

JEFFERY, WHAT KIND OF GAY ARE YOU?

WHAT? WHAT KIND OF GAY ARE YOU?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS.

OKAY, THAT'S CLEAR.

ALL RIGHT, SO THERE ARE ALL TYPES OF GAYS IN HERE, RIGHT?

SO, THERE ARE SUBCULTURES IN THE CULTURE.

I'LL TEACH YOU.

SO, YOU HAVE THE GUYS WHO ARE FEMININE.

THEY'RE OVER THERE.

AND THEN YOU HAVE THE BUTCH ONES THAT ARE THERE.

THEN YOU HAVE THE BUTCH QUEENS.

AND THEN YOU HAVE THE QUEENS.

WHICH ONE ARE YOU?

I'M NONE OF THEM.

YOU'RE ONE OF THEM. DRINK.

DRINK. HERE.

CHEERS.

MMM!

OW! REALLY, JEFFERY?

I'M GONNA PRAY FOR YOU.

I'M NOT ANY ONE OF THESE SUBCULTURES.

I'M JUST JEFFERY.

YOU'RE ONE OF THEM, JEFFERY.

YOU'LL FIGURE IT OUT, I GUESS.

WHY DO I HAVE TO BE IN ONE OF THESE SUBCULTURES

TO BE GAY, CANDACE?

OKAY, MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT.

MAYBE THERE'S A BREED THAT I DON'T KNOW ABOUT,

W‐WHICH IS RARE BECAUSE I TOLD YOU I KNOW AND I LOVE THE GAYS.

YOU KNOW, BEING OUT HERE

IS NOT DEALING WITH WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOUR BROTHER.

IS THAT WHAT YOU THINK I'M DOING?

YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I THINK.

YOU'RE TRYING TO DISASSOCIATE AND NOT DEAL WITH IT, CANDACE.

JEFFERY, DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH PAIN I'VE SEEN IN MY LIFE?

PLEASE.

WHAT DO YOU DO WITH IT?

I DANCE. COME ON.

COME DANCE WITH ME.

NO. PLEASE?

WHAT?

YOU'RE NOT UPSET?

NO.

WHY?

YOU DON'T GET IT, DO YOU?

YOU DON'T MATTER ANYMORE.

I'M NOT.

YOU ARE IRRELEVANT.

I'M SURE THAT WILL CHANGE IN ABOUT SIX MONTHS.

HE IS A KICKER. OOH.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

AMANDA'S MONEY.

WE HAVEN'T HEARD FROM YOU.

AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO.

OKAY.

[ SIGHS ] THIS ONE'S FOR REAL.

NO MORE THREATS.

WE WILL SEE YOU IN COURT.

YOU HAVE TO KNOW THAT THERE'S NOT A LAWYER

IN THIS ENTIRE STATE THAT WOULD TRY THIS CASE.

I'VE DECIDED TO TAKE THE BAR EXAM SOONER RATHER THAN LATER.

WE'LL SEE YOU ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL.

AND YOU'VE BEEN A GREAT, UH ‐‐ EXCUSE ME.

WHAT WAS THAT?

SHE FILED THE LAWSUIT.

IT'S REAL THIS TIME.

SO, THIS LITTLE LADY KEEPS POPPING UP.

WHO IS SHE? NO ONE.

DOESN'T LOOK THAT WAY TO ME.

TRUST ME.

IS SHE A PROBLEM?

NO.

GOOD.

I DO HAVE PEOPLE WHO HANDLE PROBLEMS

IF I'M MADE AWARE OF THEM IN TIME.

GOOD. SO DO WE.

YOU'RE MY KIND OF WOMAN.

NO, I'M NOT.

NO?

TOO FLASHY, REMEMBER?

[ Chuckling ] OH.

YOU DIDN'T TAKE THAT PERSONALLY, DID YOU?

NO.

GOOD.

BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T HAVE A THICK SKIN,

YOU WON'T MAKE IT A DAY IN POLITICS.

OH, I HAVE A THICK SKIN.

AND QUITE FLAWLESS, DON'T YOU THINK?

IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME, I HAVE SOME MATTERS TO ATTEND TO,

AND I'M MEETING MY SON FOR LUNCH.

ENJOY YOUR DAY.

THANKS.

YOU, TOO.

Man: YOUR HONOR, HE IS INCAPACITATED.

HE CAN'T MAKE ANY DECISIONS.

HIS MOTHER IS KEEPING HIM ALIVE.

THESE ARE THE DOCTOR'S NOTES AND REPORTS.

HE IS COMPLETELY BRAIN DEAD,

NOT TO MENTION THAT MR. YOUNG HAS NO INSURANCE.

HE'S COSTING THE TAXPAYERS THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS EVERY DAY

JUST TO STAY ALIVE.

MRS. YOUNG?

DO YOU HAVE AN ATTORNEY?

I CAN'T AFFORD ONE, YOUR HONOR.

AND THIS IS WRONG, YOUR HONOR.

THAT MAN HAS NEVER BEEN THERE FOR MY SON!

THIS ISN'T ABOUT THAT, MRS. YOUNG.

THIS IS ABOUT THE FATHER'S RIGHT

TO TAKE YOUR SON OFF LIFE SUPPORT.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?

WHAT ABOUT HIS MOTHER'S RIGHT?

WHAT ABOUT MY RIGHTS? HE CAN'T DO THAT!

WELL, THE LAWS MAY BE DIFFERENT.

OKAY, WELL, THEN I'M SORRY, YOUR HONOR.

THEN I DON'T UNDERSTAND. NO, I DON'T.

YOUR HONOR, I'LL BE REPRESENTING MS. YOUNG.

AND YOU ARE? CANDACE YOUNG.

SHE IS NOT A LAWYER.

I'LL BE TAKING THE BAR VERY SOON.

GET OUT OF HERE!

THEN YOU CAN'T ARGUE A CASE.

HAVE A SEAT.

YOUR HONOR, WE'D LIKE TO CITE CASE LAW CECIL VERSUS MORTON.

YOUR HONOR, THAT CASE WAS ARGUED

ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPREME COURT.

THE JUDGE RULED IN FAVOR OF THE MATERNAL MOTHER

TO KEEP THE CHILD ALIVE.

NO, HE DID NOT.

WELL, MAYBE COUNSEL NEEDS TO READ THE LAW FOR HIMSELF.

OR LELAL VERSUS REDMAN.

IN THAT CASE, THE JUDGE RULED IN FAVOR

OF THE BIOLOGICAL PARENTS

WHEN THE GRANDPARENTS WANTED TO TAKE THE DAUGHTER

OFF OF LIFE SUPPORT.

OR FILLAN VERSUS WASHINGTON.

THE HUSBAND WANTED TO TAKE THE WIFE OFF OF LIFE SUPPORT

WHEN AFTER GIVING BIRTH, SHE SLIPPED INTO A COMA.

THE JUDGE RULED IN FAVOR OF THE BIOLOGICAL PARENTS.

YES, WELL, IN ALL THOSE CASES YOU'VE MENTIONED,

THOSE ARE EITHER GRANDPARENTS OR SPOUSES.

OKAY, WELL, WHAT ABOUT CASE NUMBER 585186,

POINTMAN VERSUS CALVERS?

ARGUE.

YOUR HONOR, SHE CAN'T ARGUE.

SHE'S NOT EVEN A LAWYER.

RELAX, COUNSEL.

SHE'S NOT A LAWYER, BUT SHE HAS A POINT.

YOUR HONOR ‐‐ LOOK.

YOU RUSHED THIS WOMAN IN HERE,

AND SHE CAN'T EVEN AFFORD AN ATTORNEY.

SOMEONE'S DONE THEIR HOMEWORK.

I'LL TAKE THIS MATTER INTO ADVISEMENT.

I'LL GIVE YOU MY RULING BY TOMORROW.

I REALIZE THIS IS A VERY PRESSING MATTER.

HELLO, SON.

JEANS AND A TANK TOP.

INTERESTING CHOICE.

I JUST WANTED TO BE COMFORTABLE.

WHY DO YOU LOOK SO UNCOMFORTABLE?

MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T TALKED IN AWHILE.

YES. YOU'RE RIGHT.

I THINK WE SHOULD, THOUGH.

SO, YOU'RE NOT GONNA TALK ABOUT ‐‐

IF YOU MEAN TALK ABOUT YOUR FATHER'S BIG DAY

COMING UP IN A FEW DAYS, THEN...YES, SURE.

LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT.

THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT.

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEANT.

BUT CAN WE JUST PUT THAT ASIDE FOR A MOMENT

AND DO WHAT WE NEED TO DO TO GET YOUR FATHER ELECTED?

PUT IT ASIDE?

YES.

HERE.

WHAT'S THIS?

I HAVE TWO THINGS FOR YOU.

WHAT IS IT?

IT'S A ROMNEY.

[ SIGHS ]

WHAT IS A ‐‐ A ROMNEY?

IT'S A BINDER FULL OF WOMEN,

ALL GIRLS THAT I HAVE SPOKEN WITH,

AND THEY ARE ALL WILLING TO STAND WITH YOU

AT YOUR FATHER'S ANNOUNCEMENT.

ANY OF THEM ARE WILLING TO DO IT.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PICK ONE, GO OUT ON A DATE TOMORROW,

AND STAND CLOSE TO THEM IN A FEW DAYS

AT YOUR FATHER'S ANNOUNCEMENT.

IT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO ME.

WHAT'S IMPORTANT IS THE TRUTH.

YOU'RE SO NAIVE.

LOOK AROUND YOU, SON.

HOW MANY BLACK FACES DO YOU SEE IN THIS PLACE?

DO YOU EVEN REALIZE THE SACRIFICES AND HARD WORK

YOUR FATHER AND I HAVE DONE JUST TO BE SURE

THAT YOU'RE IN THIS POSITION?

WHAT ABOUT THE SACRIFICES I'VE MADE, MOM?

WHAT SACRIFICES?

YOU ARE MY SON.

I AM STILL A HUMAN BEING.

I WILL NOT ARGUE WITH YOU ABOUT THIS, JEFFERY.

YOU WILL DO AS I SAY.

THANK YOU.

AND DON'T EVER LET ME SEE YOU DRESSED THAT WAY AGAIN.

[ GLASS CLINKING ]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

STOP THAT.

OH, THIS THING.

HI.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I KNEW HE COULDN'T HANDLE YOU.

LOOK, VERONICA.

HE LIVES WITH ME NOW.

HE'S GAY. HE'S HAPPY.

SO, YOU NEED TO GET YOUR OLD, OUT‐OF‐TOUCH ASS IN GEAR.

LITTLE GIRL, YOU HAVE CROSSED THE LINE FOR THE LAST TIME.

I'M NOT AFRAID OF YOU, VERONICA.

JEFFERY, YOU HAVE BROUGHT TRASH TO THE TABLE.

I'M SORRY, MOM.

NO, YOU'RE NOT.

YOU'RE RIGHT. I'M NOT.

NO. SHE TREATS YOU LIKE HELL.

YES, SHE HAS.

HASN'T SHE? MM‐HMM.

SO, NOW YOU'RE GONNA LIVE THE WAY YOU WANT TO LIVE YOUR LIFE.

AND YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO GET USED TO IT.

CANDACE, YOU'RE ONE BAD BITCH.

THANK YOU, JEFFERY. YES, YOU ARE.

OH. LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

YEAH, LET'S GO.

NOT SO FAST.

DON'T STOP MOVING.

I SAID I HAD TWO THINGS FOR YOU.

LET'S GO, JEFFERY.

YOU WANT TO WAIT FOR ME IN THE CAR?

ARE YOU SURE?

OKAY.
