1
00:00:14,753 --> 00:00:16,668
- Whoo!
- Come on now!
2
00:00:17,452 --> 00:00:19,323
Hey, hey!
3
00:00:19,497 --> 00:00:22,892
Hello, Oak Bluffs!
4
00:00:23,066 --> 00:00:24,850
So, did you know
that the Black elite
5
00:00:24,937 --> 00:00:26,722
have been coming here
since the late 1800s?
6
00:00:26,852 --> 00:00:29,333
Oh, and we have to go
to Nancy's Restaurant
7
00:00:29,420 --> 00:00:31,727
because Sasha Obama
had a summer job there.
8
00:00:31,857 --> 00:00:33,294
Okay. Goals.
Thank you.
9
00:00:33,468 --> 00:00:35,644
"Goals"? What?
Working at a restaurant?
10
00:00:35,774 --> 00:00:37,515
Being Sasha Obama.
11
00:00:39,213 --> 00:00:41,084
Why you got us
riding around,
12
00:00:41,171 --> 00:00:44,174
hair blowing, like white women
selling shampoo?
13
00:00:44,305 --> 00:00:46,611
Now, you know we're selling
more than shampoo.
14
00:00:46,698 --> 00:00:47,917
What are we selling?
15
00:00:48,091 --> 00:00:49,614
Identity and...?
16
00:00:49,701 --> 00:00:51,529
Freedom!
17
00:00:51,703 --> 00:00:53,140
Yes! Yes, girl!
18
00:00:53,227 --> 00:00:55,316
But I swear,
if this wig fall off...
19
00:00:55,490 --> 00:00:57,535
Mom, pull over.
20
00:00:57,709 --> 00:00:59,885
That water is probably cold,
baby girl.
21
00:01:00,060 --> 00:01:01,539
I don't care.
22
00:01:01,670 --> 00:01:05,021
This is my first time
at the beach.
23
00:01:05,108 --> 00:01:06,979
Cold or not,
I'm getting in.
24
00:01:07,110 --> 00:01:08,938
There's gonna be a lot of firsts
for you this summer.
25
00:01:09,112 --> 00:01:10,896
Really? Well...
26
00:01:11,027 --> 00:01:12,550
let's have
a swim, then.
27
00:01:12,681 --> 00:01:14,552
Eee!
First swim
of the summer!
28
00:01:14,683 --> 00:01:16,902
Well, I ain't going
near the water.
29
00:01:16,989 --> 00:01:18,513
I don't want my 'do
to get wet.
30
00:01:20,906 --> 00:01:22,604
Ooh.
Whoo!
31
00:01:22,691 --> 00:01:23,909
Feels good!
32
00:01:25,128 --> 00:01:26,782
You coming for me?!
33
00:01:26,912 --> 00:01:28,523
Oh, you --
you coming --Uh-huh!
34
00:01:38,054 --> 00:01:39,186
You okay, Ange?
35
00:01:54,462 --> 00:01:57,595
All this reminds me of Mama.
36
00:01:57,769 --> 00:02:00,207
We're only here
because of her.
37
00:02:00,294 --> 00:02:03,732
The deed she left
on that old building...
38
00:02:03,819 --> 00:02:05,734
I'm sorry.
I just...
39
00:02:05,821 --> 00:02:08,171
Yes, we are here
because of her,
40
00:02:08,258 --> 00:02:10,434
to finish
what she couldn't.
41
00:02:10,608 --> 00:02:14,612
Opening up a pop-up shop
where she used to work as a maid
42
00:02:14,786 --> 00:02:16,440
is full circle.
43
00:02:16,614 --> 00:02:19,269
And this is your homage,
child.
44
00:02:19,443 --> 00:02:22,794
So you ain't got to apologize
for the feeling.
45
00:02:22,881 --> 00:02:24,796
I always said grieving people
should have, like,
46
00:02:24,970 --> 00:02:26,798
wristbands or something,
47
00:02:26,885 --> 00:02:31,107
'cause it just -- it just
rolls in when it wants to.
48
00:02:31,194 --> 00:02:33,631
Well, just let it roll,
baby.
49
00:02:33,805 --> 00:02:36,765
'Cause my baby sister --
she's here.
50
00:02:39,681 --> 00:02:40,986
I love you.
51
00:02:50,996 --> 00:02:53,651
I know she is
smiling down at us right now,
52
00:02:53,825 --> 00:02:55,914
asking who stole
her conditioner.
53
00:02:56,001 --> 00:02:57,699
Mm-hmm.
54
00:02:57,873 --> 00:03:00,571
Talkin' 'bout "shea butter
does not grow on trees."
55
00:03:00,702 --> 00:03:02,094
Yes, it do.
56
00:03:02,269 --> 00:03:03,574
I'm like...
57
00:03:19,677 --> 00:03:23,638
So, we just got
to the Vineyard.
58
00:03:23,725 --> 00:03:26,641
Kek4drake wants to know
what I'm wearing.
59
00:03:26,728 --> 00:03:29,078
Thirsty Couture 2021.
60
00:03:29,165 --> 00:03:31,385
Okay, Lauren, we do not
flaunt our money.
61
00:03:31,559 --> 00:03:34,083
We do not sell our bodies.
We use our minds.
62
00:03:34,170 --> 00:03:36,694
You know, there's a higher
expectation for you both.
63
00:03:36,868 --> 00:03:38,914
You're Duponts
and Franklins.
64
00:03:39,088 --> 00:03:40,350
Don't ever forget that.
65
00:03:40,481 --> 00:03:41,830
Let's put away the phone,
sweetheart.
66
00:03:41,917 --> 00:03:43,092
For now.
67
00:03:43,266 --> 00:03:46,356
Welcome back!
68
00:03:46,487 --> 00:03:47,836
I'll have the luggage
loaded into the car.
69
00:03:47,923 --> 00:03:49,533
Thank you, Jackie.
70
00:03:49,620 --> 00:03:52,971
Well, you were supposed
to be here over an hour ago.
71
00:03:53,145 --> 00:03:55,060
I started thinking
I was going to have to prep
72
00:03:55,235 --> 00:03:57,106
for tonight's gala
alone.
73
00:03:57,193 --> 00:03:58,977
Well, I told you
I had it under control.
74
00:03:59,064 --> 00:04:01,066
Well, do you?
75
00:04:01,153 --> 00:04:04,896
Because summer starts tonight,
and this party sets the bar
76
00:04:04,983 --> 00:04:08,552
for the Graceties'
fundraising efforts.
77
00:04:08,639 --> 00:04:10,075
Kids, why don't you
and Mama Liv go catch up?
78
00:04:13,165 --> 00:04:14,732
Thanks for
having my back.
79
00:04:14,906 --> 00:04:16,386
- Of course.
- Mm-hmm.
80
00:04:16,517 --> 00:04:18,562
You know, I birthed two
beautiful grandchildren for her,
81
00:04:18,736 --> 00:04:19,955
and she still
comes for me.
82
00:04:20,085 --> 00:04:21,565
Well, you know Mama Liv's
always on 10.
83
00:04:21,739 --> 00:04:23,567
Mm.
And you wouldn't love her
if she wasn't.
84
00:04:23,741 --> 00:04:25,177
You wanna bet?
85
00:04:25,308 --> 00:04:26,962
No, not at all.
86
00:04:27,136 --> 00:04:30,574
But as this summer
is about us
87
00:04:30,748 --> 00:04:32,359
getting our marriage
back on track,
88
00:04:32,446 --> 00:04:34,926
back to where we were,
I'll always have your back.
89
00:04:35,013 --> 00:04:36,885
Mm.
I like that.
90
00:04:37,015 --> 00:04:38,713
Mm-hmm.
91
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,149
And if you're good,
a little bit later,
92
00:04:40,236 --> 00:04:42,282
I'll make sure I tend to
that "back," personally.
93
00:04:42,369 --> 00:04:44,066
Mm. Mm.
94
00:04:44,153 --> 00:04:45,241
Mm.
95
00:04:52,248 --> 00:04:54,685
Oh, my God.
96
00:05:04,391 --> 00:05:07,045
My God.
Is -- Is this --
97
00:05:07,219 --> 00:05:10,222
This old boarding house
is all ours.
98
00:05:10,397 --> 00:05:11,789
Mama never said
a word.
99
00:05:11,963 --> 00:05:14,792
This is where your mother
started doing hair.
100
00:05:14,966 --> 00:05:19,231
She had all these maids dyed,
fried, and laid to the side.
101
00:05:19,362 --> 00:05:21,016
She swore
she'd never come back
102
00:05:21,146 --> 00:05:23,148
after what happened
with your father.
103
00:05:23,323 --> 00:05:26,326
She never even told you
his name?
104
00:05:26,413 --> 00:05:29,720
She died with
that secret, too.
105
00:05:43,038 --> 00:05:45,040
Little Ow, Mama.
106
00:05:45,170 --> 00:05:46,868
Angie, I know you're excited
to meet your daddy,
107
00:05:47,042 --> 00:05:49,000
but sit still.
108
00:05:49,087 --> 00:05:51,481
Why ain't I ever
met him before?
109
00:05:51,612 --> 00:05:53,962
He was busy getting
everything ready.
110
00:05:54,049 --> 00:05:56,312
But now we're gonna live
like a real family
111
00:05:56,399 --> 00:05:58,836
in a castle
on the water.
112
00:05:59,010 --> 00:06:00,708
I wanna look real pretty.
113
00:06:04,146 --> 00:06:07,018
Okay.
114
00:06:07,105 --> 00:06:08,411
How do I look?
115
00:06:08,498 --> 00:06:10,195
You look beautiful.
116
00:06:13,198 --> 00:06:14,939
You wait right here.
117
00:06:18,421 --> 00:06:20,858
You made me keep quiet.
118
00:06:21,032 --> 00:06:22,643
You want to pay me off?
119
00:06:22,817 --> 00:06:23,905
Get out!
120
00:06:24,079 --> 00:06:25,689
Before I beat the Black
off of you.
121
00:06:25,863 --> 00:06:28,213
Get out of this house
right now!
122
00:06:35,046 --> 00:06:36,221
Daddy!
123
00:06:46,231 --> 00:06:49,017
I'm here now, Mom.
124
00:07:36,412 --> 00:07:38,370
You know, all this time
we were eating instant grits,
125
00:07:38,545 --> 00:07:40,416
we could have been
dining on steak
126
00:07:40,503 --> 00:07:42,549
at some waterfront
property.
127
00:07:42,636 --> 00:07:44,246
I did love her grits,
though.
128
00:07:44,333 --> 00:07:46,770
Me too.
129
00:07:46,944 --> 00:07:49,773
So, um, when are we gonna
spread her ashes?
130
00:07:49,947 --> 00:07:52,167
Let's just get settled
first, alright?
131
00:07:52,297 --> 00:07:53,516
You've had
a really rough year.
132
00:07:53,603 --> 00:07:55,736
I got expelled from school
for fighting.
133
00:07:55,910 --> 00:07:57,868
I caught a case.
You can say it, Mom.
134
00:08:01,132 --> 00:08:02,307
Mom.
135
00:08:02,438 --> 00:08:03,961
Come here.
136
00:08:04,135 --> 00:08:05,006
Mom.
Come here!
137
00:08:05,180 --> 00:08:06,268
Mom!
Get up here!
138
00:08:06,355 --> 00:08:07,748
Okay!
139
00:08:07,922 --> 00:08:08,879
Stop!
140
00:08:10,838 --> 00:08:14,537
I want this to be a fresh start
for both of us.
141
00:08:14,624 --> 00:08:17,671
I want to create some
generational wealth up in here,
142
00:08:17,845 --> 00:08:20,674
for you, your kids --
if you want them.
143
00:08:20,848 --> 00:08:22,980
I mean, I was even thinking
you could join Jack and Jill.
144
00:08:23,111 --> 00:08:24,591
No, Mom.
145
00:08:24,678 --> 00:08:26,549
I read about that club,
and those kids start hanging out
146
00:08:26,636 --> 00:08:27,985
when they're like
three years old,
147
00:08:28,116 --> 00:08:29,944
and they don't want
some new girl in the mix.
148
00:08:30,031 --> 00:08:31,902
And I don't want
- to be in the mix.
- Um, excuse me.
149
00:08:31,989 --> 00:08:33,077
Have you met yourself?
150
00:08:33,164 --> 00:08:35,384
You are everything.
151
00:08:35,471 --> 00:08:37,212
Anybody would love
to hang out with you.
152
00:08:37,342 --> 00:08:40,824
I'm just trying to give you
more and better than I had.
153
00:08:40,998 --> 00:08:42,609
These people
can help us.
154
00:08:42,696 --> 00:08:45,176
Just need you
to give me a chance.
155
00:08:45,263 --> 00:08:47,962
Okay?
156
00:08:48,136 --> 00:08:49,572
Okay.
157
00:08:49,659 --> 00:08:51,226
So, you know,
how are you gonna get it?
158
00:08:51,356 --> 00:08:54,403
'Cause I know you always have
a hustle, or whatever you do.
159
00:08:54,490 --> 00:08:56,710
As a matter of fact, I just
got us invited to a party.
160
00:08:56,884 --> 00:08:58,363
Oh!
161
00:08:58,538 --> 00:09:00,017
Well...
162
00:09:00,148 --> 00:09:01,279
let's go to the party.
163
00:09:01,366 --> 00:09:03,020
It's gonna be alright.
164
00:09:03,151 --> 00:09:04,761
Okay.
165
00:09:19,689 --> 00:09:21,517
Well, your mother
was right.
166
00:09:21,691 --> 00:09:23,475
But don't tell her
I said that.
167
00:09:23,650 --> 00:09:26,043
All eyes are on me
tonight.
168
00:09:26,174 --> 00:09:29,264
Baby, you are the baddest woman
at this party.
169
00:09:29,394 --> 00:09:31,048
All eyes
should be on you.
170
00:09:31,179 --> 00:09:33,050
There's too much riding on
this summer
171
00:09:33,181 --> 00:09:34,835
for me
to make mistakes.
172
00:09:34,922 --> 00:09:39,666
The Graceties, work,
the kids, and you.
173
00:09:39,753 --> 00:09:42,190
I have never seen you
drop a ball in your life.
174
00:09:45,236 --> 00:09:48,065
You are stronger
than you think.
175
00:09:48,239 --> 00:09:51,199
Together,
we're even stronger.
176
00:09:57,292 --> 00:10:00,034
We are not in Boston
anymore, y'all.
177
00:10:01,688 --> 00:10:03,777
Mama Eve used to work
this party?
178
00:10:03,951 --> 00:10:05,474
Mm-hmm.
179
00:10:05,561 --> 00:10:07,694
You know, my father
could be here
180
00:10:07,781 --> 00:10:09,260
and I wouldn't even
know it.
181
00:10:09,347 --> 00:10:10,871
It's his loss.
182
00:10:11,045 --> 00:10:12,350
Always has been.
183
00:10:12,524 --> 00:10:14,918
Angie!
184
00:10:18,574 --> 00:10:19,444
Girl, I'm so glad
you got in.
185
00:10:19,619 --> 00:10:20,924
You remember the baby?
186
00:10:21,098 --> 00:10:22,578
- Oh, my God.
- Can you believe it?
187
00:10:22,665 --> 00:10:24,232
Nikki!
188
00:10:24,319 --> 00:10:25,755
Aunt Piggy.
189
00:10:25,929 --> 00:10:27,365
Alright, Nikki, try to have
some fun, alright?
190
00:10:27,539 --> 00:10:28,584
- You, too, Piggy.
- Uh-huh.
191
00:10:28,758 --> 00:10:30,325
From your mouth
to God's ears.
192
00:10:30,455 --> 00:10:31,892
You look just the same.
193
00:10:35,069 --> 00:10:37,462
I wanna say hi
to the host.
Oh.
194
00:10:37,549 --> 00:10:39,247
Oh, you wanna wade
into the deep waters.
195
00:10:39,334 --> 00:10:41,553
Yeah.
Well, that's
Leah Franklin-Dupont, girl.
196
00:10:41,728 --> 00:10:43,686
I know.
What? You forgot?
197
00:10:43,773 --> 00:10:46,036
I can charm
a black dog white.
198
00:10:46,123 --> 00:10:47,559
True.
199
00:10:49,823 --> 00:10:52,129
Sorry.
200
00:10:53,391 --> 00:10:55,132
Uh, can I have,
like, a --
201
00:10:55,306 --> 00:10:57,134
a club -- club soda
or something, please?
202
00:10:57,308 --> 00:11:01,399
- Thank you.
- These parties are boring
as hell if you're not lit.
203
00:11:01,573 --> 00:11:04,185
Let's do vodka
for the lady.
204
00:11:04,359 --> 00:11:05,621
Coming right up, Mr. Dupont.
205
00:11:05,795 --> 00:11:08,102
So, is this, like,
your party, or...?
206
00:11:08,189 --> 00:11:11,540
No.
This is my parents' party.
207
00:11:11,627 --> 00:11:14,499
My parties are
way better than this.
208
00:11:14,630 --> 00:11:16,110
Okay.
209
00:11:17,502 --> 00:11:19,287
Um, hello?
210
00:11:19,374 --> 00:11:20,375
We're supposed to be taking
this Jack and Jill photo
211
00:11:20,505 --> 00:11:21,985
on the beach
for my feed.
212
00:11:22,159 --> 00:11:24,988
- Okay.
- Lo, you're being rude.
213
00:11:25,162 --> 00:11:26,250
I'm Taylor.
214
00:11:26,337 --> 00:11:27,991
This is Lauren.
215
00:11:28,165 --> 00:11:30,211
Hi.
Uh, I-I'm Nikki.
216
00:11:30,385 --> 00:11:32,213
Um, I'm kind of, like,
new around here,
217
00:11:32,387 --> 00:11:34,606
but my mom's opening a store
on Delois Street.
218
00:11:34,737 --> 00:11:35,999
It's like a Black
hair care kinda --
219
00:11:36,086 --> 00:11:37,827
Guys, are we taking
this photo or not?
220
00:11:40,612 --> 00:11:43,659
I guess they don't teach manners
in the sunken place.
221
00:11:43,833 --> 00:11:46,096
That actually
wasn't funny.
222
00:11:46,183 --> 00:11:48,185
- It was a little funny.
- I see you, new girl.
223
00:11:48,359 --> 00:11:50,535
We need some fresh blood
around here.
224
00:11:50,622 --> 00:11:52,407
A few of us are getting together
tomorrow night,
225
00:11:52,581 --> 00:11:55,192
if you want to hang.
226
00:11:55,366 --> 00:11:57,542
I'm okay.
Thank you, though.
227
00:11:57,717 --> 00:12:00,458
Cool.
Meet us on the dock at00.
228
00:12:02,765 --> 00:12:04,288
Until then,
let's grab my photo.
229
00:12:04,375 --> 00:12:05,289
Quincy.
230
00:12:10,164 --> 00:12:11,774
Excuse me.
231
00:12:11,861 --> 00:12:13,471
I just had to meet
the host of this party.
232
00:12:13,645 --> 00:12:16,605
I am Angela Vaughn.
I'm Josephine's friend.
233
00:12:16,692 --> 00:12:18,476
This is such a great party.
It's such a pleasure.
234
00:12:18,650 --> 00:12:20,696
- Nice to meet you.
- Oh, it is lovely
to meet you.
235
00:12:20,870 --> 00:12:22,393
And your husband?
Is he here, too?
236
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:23,917
I'm not married.
237
00:12:24,091 --> 00:12:26,658
I do have a 17-year-old
daughter, going on 30.
238
00:12:26,833 --> 00:12:29,357
Mm. Yeah, well, we have
one of those, too.
Yes, we do.
239
00:12:29,531 --> 00:12:32,403
She's 17
and full of...
240
00:12:32,490 --> 00:12:34,014
- opinions.
- Exactly.
241
00:12:34,188 --> 00:12:35,276
You know,
they grow up so fast.
242
00:12:35,363 --> 00:12:37,017
Too fast.
243
00:12:37,191 --> 00:12:38,453
I'm just happy
to have her with me
244
00:12:38,627 --> 00:12:40,324
while I open my pop-up shop,
Eve's Crown.
245
00:12:40,411 --> 00:12:41,935
Wait, Eve's Crown.
246
00:12:42,109 --> 00:12:43,719
Where have I heard
that name before?
247
00:12:43,893 --> 00:12:46,026
I applied for the small business
incubator program at Franklin.
248
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,071
Yes. Yes, yes.
Black hair care.
249
00:12:48,158 --> 00:12:49,681
You know,
it's hot right now.
Mm.
250
00:12:49,856 --> 00:12:51,683
A Black woman's relationship
with her hair starts
251
00:12:51,814 --> 00:12:54,251
well before she can even walk,
continues from the moment
252
00:12:54,425 --> 00:12:56,645
her mother teaches her
how to do her own hair.
253
00:12:56,732 --> 00:12:58,516
It evolves.
It's generational.
254
00:12:58,603 --> 00:12:59,779
It's personal.
255
00:12:59,866 --> 00:13:02,259
It's a lot more than
"hot right now,"
256
00:13:02,390 --> 00:13:04,261
and I think I'd be a great fit
for your program.
257
00:13:04,392 --> 00:13:06,960
Well, if you keep that passion,
you just might make the cut.
258
00:13:07,134 --> 00:13:08,657
And I did want to say
how amazing it is
259
00:13:08,744 --> 00:13:09,963
that you are raising money
260
00:13:10,137 --> 00:13:11,834
for the single mother
outreach tonight,
261
00:13:11,921 --> 00:13:13,923
and I wanted to give you
a donation
262
00:13:14,097 --> 00:13:15,795
on behalf of my business,
Eve's Crown.
263
00:13:18,623 --> 00:13:21,539
Uh, the donation box
is at the entrance.
264
00:13:30,287 --> 00:13:32,637
You know, I still don't
know why Miss Thang-Thang
265
00:13:32,812 --> 00:13:34,639
snubbed her nose
to your check.
266
00:13:34,770 --> 00:13:35,858
It's good money.
267
00:13:37,512 --> 00:13:38,643
It is good, isn't it?
268
00:13:38,774 --> 00:13:40,950
Oh, pl--
Of course it's good.
269
00:13:41,081 --> 00:13:42,430
I just gotta figure out
how things work around here,
270
00:13:42,604 --> 00:13:43,474
that's all.
271
00:13:43,648 --> 00:13:45,694
Ow! Whoa.
272
00:13:45,868 --> 00:13:48,305
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
273
00:13:48,436 --> 00:13:49,959
Looks like
someone had fun.
274
00:13:50,133 --> 00:13:52,135
I didn't think I would get
a chance to meet you tonight.
275
00:13:52,309 --> 00:13:54,137
Can I --
Can I help you with that?
276
00:13:54,311 --> 00:13:56,705
Oh, yes.
Please. Thank you.
277
00:14:03,668 --> 00:14:05,540
Oh. Oh!
278
00:14:11,938 --> 00:14:14,462
Thank you.
279
00:14:14,636 --> 00:14:15,855
Um...
280
00:14:15,942 --> 00:14:17,508
I'm Angela Vaughn.
281
00:14:17,682 --> 00:14:19,989
Tyrique.
282
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,818
Guess I'll be seeing you
around the Bluffs.
283
00:14:22,992 --> 00:14:24,689
I guess you will,
Ms. Vaughn.
284
00:14:28,737 --> 00:14:30,347
Good Lord.
285
00:14:30,521 --> 00:14:32,349
Chocolate does melt
in the summer, right?
286
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,135
Piggy --'Cause I'm trying
to sop all that up.
287
00:14:35,222 --> 00:14:38,181
Piggy...
Ooh.
Let the summer begin.
288
00:14:38,355 --> 00:14:39,661
Okay, well, I am not here
to make new friends.
289
00:14:39,748 --> 00:14:43,404
I'm here for the win.
290
00:14:43,578 --> 00:14:45,667
Head up, crown on.
291
00:14:52,456 --> 00:14:53,718
I told you I was moving to
the Vineyard for the summer,
292
00:14:53,893 --> 00:14:55,329
and you know what that means.
293
00:14:55,503 --> 00:14:57,200
Humidity.
294
00:14:57,374 --> 00:15:01,770
Alright, we're using
this conditioner today.
295
00:15:01,857 --> 00:15:04,860
My mother always said a woman
who can do her own hair
296
00:15:04,947 --> 00:15:07,732
is not dependent on anybody.
297
00:15:07,863 --> 00:15:09,473
Time to claim your power.
298
00:15:15,218 --> 00:15:17,438
I had dreams, baby.
299
00:15:17,525 --> 00:15:19,092
I had a small salon,
300
00:15:19,266 --> 00:15:21,355
and I was gonna make it
something big, but...
301
00:15:27,013 --> 00:15:28,666
Little
Mama, don't cry.
302
00:15:30,799 --> 00:15:32,888
I'm done crying.
It's on you now.
303
00:15:32,975 --> 00:15:35,630
You are still gonna be
a queen.
304
00:15:35,804 --> 00:15:38,807
Take one part honey and add it
to this coconut oil.
305
00:15:41,201 --> 00:15:46,249
Then take the rose water
and mix it all together.
306
00:15:46,423 --> 00:15:48,773
This is my homemade
conditioner.
307
00:15:48,948 --> 00:15:50,775
You got that?
308
00:15:50,906 --> 00:15:51,994
I love you.
309
00:15:52,125 --> 00:15:53,126
I love you, too, Mommy.
310
00:16:00,220 --> 00:16:04,006
Franklin Holdings has
a deeply rooted history
311
00:16:04,093 --> 00:16:07,270
here in the Bluffs and in
the African American community.
312
00:16:07,444 --> 00:16:10,099
We are the largest
holdings company,
313
00:16:10,273 --> 00:16:14,886
with shares and assets
to more than 150 companies,
314
00:16:15,061 --> 00:16:17,977
and you all know
where we started.
315
00:16:18,064 --> 00:16:19,848
Sanitation.
316
00:16:21,241 --> 00:16:22,851
Sorry I'm late, Dad.
317
00:16:22,938 --> 00:16:25,854
Oh, no, little girl,
you are right on time.
318
00:16:25,941 --> 00:16:28,291
I was just about to announce
our new golden egg.
319
00:16:28,465 --> 00:16:33,383
Franklin Athletics is in talks
to buy the Boston Tide.
320
00:16:33,470 --> 00:16:35,907
Under our ownership, we would
propose to move the team
321
00:16:36,082 --> 00:16:39,259
to our newly built
Franklin Stadium
322
00:16:39,433 --> 00:16:43,132
and revive
a depressed area.
323
00:16:43,306 --> 00:16:46,962
The synergy of business
and community service.
324
00:16:47,049 --> 00:16:49,008
That is Franklin.
325
00:16:51,097 --> 00:16:53,012
I know all your dirt.
326
00:16:53,099 --> 00:16:55,057
Now get your damn hands
off me.
327
00:16:55,144 --> 00:16:57,059
How about
we all take a break?
328
00:17:05,937 --> 00:17:08,288
I spent my morning getting
caught up on our stadium deal,
329
00:17:08,462 --> 00:17:11,117
and it turns out
you're a crook and a liar.
330
00:17:11,291 --> 00:17:13,989
And what is it
you think you know?
331
00:17:14,163 --> 00:17:15,860
While I was finishing
the stadium deal,
332
00:17:15,947 --> 00:17:18,298
you bribed local officials,
interfered with zoning.
333
00:17:18,428 --> 00:17:20,343
I've spent my entire life
334
00:17:20,430 --> 00:17:22,345
trying to live up to
the great Teddy Franklin.
335
00:17:22,519 --> 00:17:25,870
Have you learned nothing
sitting at my right hand?
336
00:17:25,957 --> 00:17:28,264
Generations of this family
built all of this.
337
00:17:28,351 --> 00:17:30,310
Your great-grandparents
came to Boston
338
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,399
with nothing
in their pockets
339
00:17:32,529 --> 00:17:35,358
and became one of the first
families to make it up north.
340
00:17:35,445 --> 00:17:38,013
My father built on that.
I multiplied on what he built.
341
00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:39,580
So, we didn't just
"make it."
342
00:17:39,667 --> 00:17:41,886
We rose above it.
343
00:17:41,973 --> 00:17:45,412
And we maintained that legacy
generation after generation
344
00:17:45,586 --> 00:17:48,458
by continuing to build,
educate, and refine,
345
00:17:48,545 --> 00:17:52,332
and we do these things not
to show that we have arrived.
346
00:17:52,506 --> 00:17:55,944
We do this so that we can
keep our heads up high
347
00:17:56,031 --> 00:17:59,339
and the least of us
never has to bend his back
348
00:17:59,513 --> 00:18:02,342
in the cotton field
ever again.
349
00:18:02,516 --> 00:18:04,909
Seeing this family,
the Franklins,
350
00:18:04,996 --> 00:18:08,174
gives our people hope,
and as patriarch of this family,
351
00:18:08,348 --> 00:18:09,914
I take that very seriously.
352
00:18:10,001 --> 00:18:13,788
So, yes, eventually,
I will lift the neighborhood
353
00:18:13,962 --> 00:18:17,400
that you care so much about
with the revenue
354
00:18:17,574 --> 00:18:22,013
brought by a stadium
that Franklin built.
355
00:18:22,188 --> 00:18:24,059
You have twisted the legacy
of this family
356
00:18:24,146 --> 00:18:25,408
to serve your own greed.
357
00:18:25,582 --> 00:18:28,411
Do you know why
I bought this table?
358
00:18:28,498 --> 00:18:31,588
Because it was the biggest one
I could find.
359
00:18:31,675 --> 00:18:35,505
And I put it in this room
because of the incline,
360
00:18:35,592 --> 00:18:39,161
so that everyone
sitting around this table
361
00:18:39,335 --> 00:18:43,992
has to raise their head
to look up at me,
362
00:18:44,079 --> 00:18:47,300
a Black man in America,
363
00:18:47,474 --> 00:18:51,217
holding the American dream
in my Black hands.
364
00:18:51,304 --> 00:18:54,307
So, don't you tell me that
you don't like the dirt
365
00:18:54,394 --> 00:18:56,178
under my fingernails.
366
00:18:56,265 --> 00:18:58,702
You can keep your seat
at the foot of this table.
367
00:18:58,876 --> 00:19:02,402
Just never forget who sits
at the head of it, little girl.
368
00:19:11,498 --> 00:19:12,934
- How you doing, Jim?
- I'm good. How are you?
369
00:19:13,021 --> 00:19:14,240
Good. Good.
370
00:19:14,414 --> 00:19:15,458
What you trying to do
with that?
371
00:19:15,632 --> 00:19:17,591
Only that right there.
372
00:19:17,765 --> 00:19:19,462
That's luck.
373
00:19:19,549 --> 00:19:21,769
Yeah, well, thanks
for giving me the chains.
374
00:19:21,943 --> 00:19:23,423
Listen, son,
I was, uh --
375
00:19:23,553 --> 00:19:24,902
was hoping we could spend
a little quality time
376
00:19:25,076 --> 00:19:26,469
together this summer.
Alright.
377
00:19:26,556 --> 00:19:29,385
Also, to attend this
Kingship induction ceremony
378
00:19:29,472 --> 00:19:30,386
with me
tomorrow night.
379
00:19:32,432 --> 00:19:33,607
Okay. Yeah.
380
00:19:33,694 --> 00:19:35,478
But, I mean,
what would I even do there?
381
00:19:35,565 --> 00:19:38,002
Observe, listen, learn,
absorb the power
382
00:19:38,133 --> 00:19:39,917
that's gonna be
in that room.
383
00:19:40,091 --> 00:19:44,357
I tell you, I remember my, uh --
my first club meeting.
384
00:19:44,444 --> 00:19:46,272
The rest of America --
they had to wait
385
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,535
until Obama was president
to see a Black man in power.
386
00:19:48,709 --> 00:19:51,102
I've had the privilege
of seeing that my entire life.
387
00:19:51,277 --> 00:19:53,366
Every man in our family
has succeeded as a king.
388
00:19:55,281 --> 00:19:58,849
That's what I want for you, son.
To be a king.
389
00:19:59,023 --> 00:20:00,024
Make sense?
390
00:20:00,199 --> 00:20:01,591
Yeah.
Good.
391
00:20:01,678 --> 00:20:03,158
What did you want
to talk to me about?
392
00:20:05,204 --> 00:20:06,466
I'm good.
393
00:20:10,470 --> 00:20:13,516
Getting in with the Franklins
can help Eve's Crown.
394
00:20:13,690 --> 00:20:16,693
Yeah, but nominating you
for a membership so soon?
395
00:20:16,780 --> 00:20:19,392
This is Leah's first Graceties
meeting as chapter president.
396
00:20:19,479 --> 00:20:22,221
Her mom is the GOAT,
so she has a lot to prove.
397
00:20:22,308 --> 00:20:24,179
Well, I just need
to show her
398
00:20:24,266 --> 00:20:26,486
that I'm a serious
businesswoman,
399
00:20:26,660 --> 00:20:28,531
not some ratchet-ass chick
from Boston.
400
00:20:28,705 --> 00:20:30,838
Yeah, but you are.
401
00:20:31,012 --> 00:20:32,405
Got it honest, too.
402
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,540
And it's not just
about business.
403
00:20:37,627 --> 00:20:40,369
No, these women are activists
in white gloves, honey.
404
00:20:40,500 --> 00:20:43,546
That's what I'm about --
uplifting the culture.
405
00:20:43,633 --> 00:20:45,156
That's why I took out
all those loans
406
00:20:45,331 --> 00:20:46,680
just to be here
this summer.
407
00:20:46,767 --> 00:20:48,421
I can't go back
to selling product
408
00:20:48,595 --> 00:20:50,379
out the trunk of my Camry,
that's for sure.
409
00:20:50,553 --> 00:20:53,556
- A package?
- Ooh, I bet you that witch Leah
sent a horse head.
410
00:20:53,730 --> 00:20:56,864
You're silly.
411
00:20:56,994 --> 00:20:58,213
What is it?
412
00:21:00,346 --> 00:21:02,304
I just got invited
to a party tonight.
413
00:21:02,478 --> 00:21:03,523
Oh!
414
00:21:03,653 --> 00:21:05,089
Let me see that.
415
00:21:06,526 --> 00:21:08,136
Oh!
416
00:21:08,223 --> 00:21:10,181
A Tyrique Chapman party.
417
00:21:10,356 --> 00:21:12,140
You see, Nikki's already out
making friends.
418
00:21:12,227 --> 00:21:13,489
I think you need
to do the same.
419
00:21:13,576 --> 00:21:15,883
The kind with "benefits."
420
00:21:17,319 --> 00:21:18,581
What?
You know, I might be gray,
421
00:21:18,755 --> 00:21:20,714
but I still got a fire
in the furnace.
422
00:21:20,801 --> 00:21:22,063
I just need you
to nominate me.
423
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:25,240
Please?
424
00:21:25,414 --> 00:21:26,328
Fine. You win.
You always do.
425
00:21:26,502 --> 00:21:28,112
Yes! Thank you!
426
00:21:28,243 --> 00:21:30,550
- You know, it is time.
- Yes.
427
00:21:30,637 --> 00:21:34,205
17 years since you let somebody
touch that thang since Nate.
428
00:21:34,336 --> 00:21:36,295
Okay --Girl, you gotta clear them
cobwebs out.
429
00:21:36,382 --> 00:21:38,166
Clear them out, Mama.
430
00:21:38,253 --> 00:21:41,474
My -- My cobwebs --
leave them alone.
431
00:21:41,648 --> 00:21:43,606
I bet you she ain't got
no cobwebs.
432
00:21:43,780 --> 00:21:44,694
You know I don't.
433
00:22:00,144 --> 00:22:02,451
Yo, you came!
Hi.
434
00:22:02,582 --> 00:22:03,931
'Sup, girl?
- How are you?
- It's good seeing you.
435
00:22:04,061 --> 00:22:05,149
Hi.
436
00:22:05,324 --> 00:22:07,238
Wait.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
437
00:22:07,369 --> 00:22:09,632
Hey, yo, Q.
Come here.
438
00:22:09,806 --> 00:22:11,068
I'm trying to hook you up
with a little
439
00:22:11,242 --> 00:22:12,287
extracurricular activity
this summer.
440
00:22:12,461 --> 00:22:14,594
- No, no.
- Hey, you came.
441
00:22:54,808 --> 00:22:56,636
I can buy my own shoes.
442
00:22:56,810 --> 00:22:58,507
Can I at least
get you a drink?
443
00:22:59,813 --> 00:23:00,988
Sure.
444
00:23:10,563 --> 00:23:12,782
Taylor!
445
00:23:12,956 --> 00:23:16,003
Taylor!
446
00:23:16,133 --> 00:23:18,788
Taylor! Taylor!
447
00:23:18,962 --> 00:23:20,268
Taylor!
448
00:23:20,355 --> 00:23:21,443
What the hell
just happened?!
449
00:23:21,574 --> 00:23:23,445
Oh, my God!
I don't know!
450
00:23:23,532 --> 00:23:25,491
We were arguing,
and she was drunk --
451
00:23:25,665 --> 00:23:26,840
Taylor!
452
00:23:27,014 --> 00:23:28,581
Help! Help!
453
00:23:33,934 --> 00:23:35,718
So, you're a shoe-sending
kind of brother?
454
00:23:35,892 --> 00:23:37,851
Not really.
455
00:23:37,938 --> 00:23:40,549
I just thought you needed
a better intro to the Bluffs.
456
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,031
And especially if you're trying
to join the Graceties.
457
00:23:44,118 --> 00:23:47,730
All I can say is...
don't poke the bear.
458
00:23:47,904 --> 00:23:48,992
Leah can be tough.
459
00:23:49,079 --> 00:23:50,646
I can handle my own.
460
00:23:52,387 --> 00:23:53,736
Yeah, I got no doubt
about that.
461
00:23:53,910 --> 00:23:55,608
I don't summer
in the Bluffs.
462
00:23:55,782 --> 00:23:57,958
I grew up about two houses
down from here.
463
00:23:58,132 --> 00:23:59,307
The small one
on the corner.
464
00:23:59,481 --> 00:24:01,701
My father worked
for the man
465
00:24:01,875 --> 00:24:03,267
who put me through
boarding school,
466
00:24:03,442 --> 00:24:04,965
then the Ivy League.
467
00:24:05,139 --> 00:24:06,836
And now I own the
construction company.
468
00:24:06,923 --> 00:24:08,751
So you're trying to be
my fairy godfather?
469
00:24:08,925 --> 00:24:10,579
Somebody's gotta get you ready
for the ball.
470
00:24:26,856 --> 00:24:28,249
Mnh-mnh.
471
00:24:31,165 --> 00:24:33,036
Oh, it's my...
472
00:24:33,123 --> 00:24:34,298
Nikki?
473
00:24:41,001 --> 00:24:42,611
Oh, my God.
474
00:24:42,785 --> 00:24:44,091
I'm just so happy
- you guys are okay.
- Nikki.
475
00:24:44,178 --> 00:24:45,092
You okay, baby?
476
00:24:47,137 --> 00:24:48,138
They got her out.
Taylor's alive.
477
00:24:48,312 --> 00:24:49,792
Are you okay?
478
00:24:49,966 --> 00:24:52,534
Officer, is there
any news on Taylor?
479
00:24:52,621 --> 00:24:54,188
Miss Woods has been rushed
to St. Mary's,
480
00:24:54,318 --> 00:24:57,017
but our main focus now
is on how the accident happened.
481
00:24:57,191 --> 00:24:58,409
A Nikki Vaughn said
that Lauren
482
00:24:58,540 --> 00:25:00,107
was with Taylor
right before the fall,
483
00:25:00,194 --> 00:25:01,891
so we need to take both girls
to the station for questioning.
484
00:25:01,978 --> 00:25:03,545
I was nowhere near her
when it happened,
485
00:25:03,632 --> 00:25:05,416
and that Nikki girl,
she's drunk as hell.
486
00:25:05,591 --> 00:25:06,374
My daughter
does not drink.
487
00:25:06,548 --> 00:25:08,594
Smell her breath.
488
00:25:08,681 --> 00:25:11,335
I'm Leah Franklin-Dupont, and my
daughter's not going anywhere.
489
00:25:11,466 --> 00:25:13,337
Well, neither is mine.
490
00:25:13,468 --> 00:25:15,078
- Drunk?!
- I had one drink!
491
00:25:16,166 --> 00:25:17,385
What's going on?
492
00:25:17,559 --> 00:25:19,169
Nikki is lit.
493
00:25:19,256 --> 00:25:21,215
Cops almost arrested her
for underage drinking.
494
00:25:21,389 --> 00:25:22,912
You're lucky
that girl's not dead.
495
00:25:22,999 --> 00:25:23,913
Were you smoking weed
again, too?
496
00:25:24,044 --> 00:25:25,828
What? No!
497
00:25:26,002 --> 00:25:29,266
We had to beg and pray
to get you a diversion program
498
00:25:29,353 --> 00:25:31,051
instead of jail time.
499
00:25:31,225 --> 00:25:32,487
One whiff of tonight's mess,
500
00:25:32,661 --> 00:25:34,141
that judge could put you
all the way behind bars,
501
00:25:34,228 --> 00:25:36,056
and I don't have
the right skin color
502
00:25:36,230 --> 00:25:37,971
or bank account
to get you out.
503
00:25:38,058 --> 00:25:39,276
You're grounded.
504
00:25:39,450 --> 00:25:42,149
Oh, we trying to act
like a mom now?
505
00:25:42,236 --> 00:25:43,629
You've always been
so thirsty.
506
00:25:43,716 --> 00:25:45,544
Alright, now.
Slow your roll, baby girl.
507
00:25:47,241 --> 00:25:48,721
You're obsessed with
getting in with these people,
508
00:25:48,895 --> 00:25:50,287
just like you were obsessed
with putting me
509
00:25:50,461 --> 00:25:51,811
in some private school
with people
510
00:25:51,898 --> 00:25:54,988
who are nothing like me,
who look nothing like me.
511
00:25:55,075 --> 00:25:57,425
Well, maybe it's on you
why I was drinking and smoking.
512
00:26:03,953 --> 00:26:05,433
The whole point
of being grounded
513
00:26:05,607 --> 00:26:08,610
is that I stay in my room,
at home.
514
00:26:08,697 --> 00:26:10,699
Sit up straight.
Fix your face.
515
00:26:10,830 --> 00:26:13,049
I'm trying to show you
something.
516
00:26:13,223 --> 00:26:15,269
Alright.
517
00:26:15,399 --> 00:26:17,488
So, when they call for noms,
I'll say your name.
518
00:26:17,663 --> 00:26:19,316
You're gonna get
some shady looks,
519
00:26:19,490 --> 00:26:21,101
and then the interview process
will start.
520
00:26:22,493 --> 00:26:25,627
As your outgoing
chapter president,
521
00:26:25,714 --> 00:26:28,282
I would like to call
the meeting to order
522
00:26:28,369 --> 00:26:33,287
and officially pass the torch
to your next chapter president.
523
00:26:33,461 --> 00:26:34,897
She's a legacy member.
524
00:26:35,071 --> 00:26:37,073
Her mother, Rose Franklin,
525
00:26:37,247 --> 00:26:40,990
was this chapter's
most revered president.
526
00:26:41,077 --> 00:26:44,124
I give you
Leah Franklin-Dupont.
527
00:26:49,956 --> 00:26:51,348
I'd like to start
with a moment of silence
528
00:26:51,435 --> 00:26:53,481
for Taylor Woods' family.
529
00:26:53,568 --> 00:26:56,092
Her mother is a part
of our special sisterhood
530
00:26:56,266 --> 00:26:57,920
that we all cherish and love.
531
00:26:58,094 --> 00:27:01,445
And as we say, "Many are called,
but few are chosen."
532
00:27:01,576 --> 00:27:04,535
Our sisterhood is sacred.
533
00:27:04,666 --> 00:27:07,016
For 100 years,
The Kingship held the line
534
00:27:07,103 --> 00:27:08,931
in the African American
community.
535
00:27:09,105 --> 00:27:12,631
When no one appears
to be watching, we are.
536
00:27:14,589 --> 00:27:17,374
Inductees,
step forward, please.
537
00:27:22,249 --> 00:27:23,772
Out of the night
that covers me,
538
00:27:23,946 --> 00:27:25,513
black as the pit
from pole to pole...
539
00:27:25,687 --> 00:27:27,602
I thank
whatever gods may be
540
00:27:27,689 --> 00:27:30,039
for my unconquerable soul.
541
00:27:30,126 --> 00:27:31,475
In the fell clutch
of circumstance,
542
00:27:31,562 --> 00:27:33,347
I have not winced
nor cried aloud.
543
00:27:33,477 --> 00:27:35,479
Under the bludgeoning
of chance,
544
00:27:35,566 --> 00:27:38,265
my head is bloody,
but unbowed.
545
00:27:38,352 --> 00:27:40,615
It matters not
how straight the gate,
546
00:27:40,789 --> 00:27:42,530
how charged with punishments
the scroll.
547
00:27:42,617 --> 00:27:44,140
I am the master
of my fate.
548
00:27:44,314 --> 00:27:46,708
I am the captain
of my soul.
549
00:27:46,795 --> 00:27:48,971
I nominate Angela Vaughn.
550
00:27:49,058 --> 00:27:53,149
Ms. Vaughn, I was surprised
to hear your nomination.
551
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,282
We don't know very much
about you.
552
00:27:55,369 --> 00:27:56,587
I'm from Boston.
553
00:27:56,762 --> 00:27:59,112
My mother's name
was Evelyn Vaughn,
554
00:27:59,199 --> 00:28:01,549
and she was the smartest woman
I've ever known.
555
00:28:01,636 --> 00:28:03,377
Evelyn Vaughn.
556
00:28:03,551 --> 00:28:05,379
What did your mother do
for a living?
557
00:28:05,509 --> 00:28:08,817
She was...
a businesswoman.
558
00:28:08,948 --> 00:28:12,429
She would summer here
in the mid-'80s.
559
00:28:12,603 --> 00:28:15,519
Now that she's gone,
I am following her dream,
560
00:28:15,650 --> 00:28:17,957
which has become
my dream, too.
561
00:28:18,044 --> 00:28:21,177
Membership in this organization
would help with that,
562
00:28:21,308 --> 00:28:24,267
and I would be honored
to be in this sisterhood.
563
00:28:24,354 --> 00:28:25,660
Thank you.
564
00:28:25,747 --> 00:28:27,662
All the women that
were interviewed
565
00:28:27,749 --> 00:28:30,447
are under consideration.
566
00:28:30,534 --> 00:28:33,755
Uh, but you'll need the vote
of two-thirds of the membership,
567
00:28:33,842 --> 00:28:36,192
which will happen
at the Grand Illumination Ball
568
00:28:36,366 --> 00:28:38,194
at the end of the summer.
569
00:28:38,325 --> 00:28:41,197
Now, until then,
we're gonna be watching you,
570
00:28:41,371 --> 00:28:42,677
seeing who you are.
571
00:28:42,851 --> 00:28:44,679
You know, seeing what you
bring to the table.
572
00:28:44,853 --> 00:28:46,681
But the first event
of the season
573
00:28:46,855 --> 00:28:49,510
will be our annual
mother-daughter fashion show.
574
00:28:49,597 --> 00:28:51,425
So, who can help with glam?
575
00:28:51,599 --> 00:28:54,210
Oh. That is my lane.
I can do --
576
00:28:54,384 --> 00:28:56,604
Traci, why don't you
handle glam?
577
00:28:56,691 --> 00:28:59,825
Ms. Vaughn, you could assist
with food and beverages.
578
00:29:02,175 --> 00:29:04,438
Snacks?
You want me on snacks?
579
00:29:04,525 --> 00:29:07,615
Well, there's no task too small
for the sisterhood, right?
580
00:29:07,789 --> 00:29:09,399
Meeting adjourned.
581
00:29:33,989 --> 00:29:35,382
Ohh!
582
00:29:35,469 --> 00:29:37,210
Thought you were taking Nik
to dinner to talk.
583
00:29:37,297 --> 00:29:39,212
Yeah, I thought I'd wash
that wig first, girl.
584
00:29:39,386 --> 00:29:42,432
This salt air water
ain't no joke.
Yeah.
585
00:29:42,519 --> 00:29:43,869
You haven't made
a homemade batch
586
00:29:43,999 --> 00:29:46,045
of your conditioner
in a hot minute.
587
00:29:46,219 --> 00:29:47,742
Yeah.
588
00:29:47,873 --> 00:29:51,615
Guess I just wanted to be close
to Mama after that meeting.
589
00:29:51,702 --> 00:29:54,183
Nikki told me
you lied about Eve.
590
00:29:56,664 --> 00:30:02,017
I just wanted those women to see
how special Eve's Crown can be.
591
00:30:02,104 --> 00:30:04,150
But when I saw
Nikki's face after...
592
00:30:07,544 --> 00:30:09,329
Hey, Nik.
593
00:30:09,416 --> 00:30:11,766
Can we talk?
594
00:30:11,897 --> 00:30:14,421
About how you're getting faded
in the kitchen
595
00:30:14,508 --> 00:30:17,032
after yelling at me
for a few shots of Cîroc?
596
00:30:17,206 --> 00:30:20,427
I am grown.
You are not.
597
00:30:26,868 --> 00:30:31,351
Maybe you were right about how
this place is making me feel.
598
00:30:31,481 --> 00:30:35,268
But everything I'm doing --
everything is still for you.
599
00:30:35,355 --> 00:30:38,749
When that last breath
left my mother's body,
600
00:30:38,924 --> 00:30:43,058
I promised myself that
I would be a better one to you.
601
00:30:43,232 --> 00:30:44,581
I'd really like
for you to come
602
00:30:44,712 --> 00:30:45,887
to the mother-daughter
fundraiser with me
603
00:30:46,061 --> 00:30:48,411
tomorrow night.
604
00:30:48,585 --> 00:30:51,240
Well, I'm still grounded, so
it's not like I have a choice.
605
00:31:11,130 --> 00:31:13,219
Ah.
606
00:31:27,407 --> 00:31:29,888
You know, your mom
thinks I'm the bad influence.
607
00:31:30,062 --> 00:31:33,326
I promise,
I will tell everybody.
608
00:31:33,456 --> 00:31:35,502
Alright.
609
00:31:35,589 --> 00:31:36,938
Come here.
610
00:31:44,163 --> 00:31:45,773
This looks amazing.
611
00:31:45,947 --> 00:31:48,558
Not a good look for the
chapter president to be late.
612
00:31:48,732 --> 00:31:51,561
This is your first event,
and all eyes are on you.
613
00:31:51,735 --> 00:31:53,215
Mama Liv, is this how
you're gonna treat me
614
00:31:53,346 --> 00:31:54,956
my entire term
as president?
615
00:31:55,130 --> 00:31:57,350
Is this how you plan to lead
the Graceties?
616
00:31:57,437 --> 00:31:58,742
Because this certainly
isn't the way
617
00:31:58,829 --> 00:32:00,353
your mother
would have done it.
618
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:05,662
This organization has worked
too hard to earn our 40 acres
619
00:32:05,793 --> 00:32:08,230
that were promised
and never delivered.
620
00:32:08,361 --> 00:32:13,148
And we will stop anything
that threatens to undermine
621
00:32:13,322 --> 00:32:14,671
what we're trying
to build here.
622
00:32:14,802 --> 00:32:19,241
Now, that
Angela Vaughn woman...
623
00:32:19,372 --> 00:32:21,678
is a disrupter.
624
00:32:21,809 --> 00:32:28,381
And her family has a long,
dark history on this island.
625
00:32:28,468 --> 00:32:30,383
Now, can you
take care of it?
626
00:32:30,470 --> 00:32:34,256
Or do I need to call your father
to handle it for you?
627
00:32:39,609 --> 00:32:41,611
She looks good.
Right?
628
00:32:41,785 --> 00:32:44,179
Your skills are insane.
629
00:32:44,353 --> 00:32:47,400
Like, you better get
these hands insured, bitch.
630
00:32:47,487 --> 00:32:49,010
What's going on here?
631
00:32:49,184 --> 00:32:51,534
She did that.
That's all.
632
00:32:53,058 --> 00:32:54,494
We were supposed to have
a top stylist.
633
00:32:54,624 --> 00:32:57,236
Well, you got one.
Me.
634
00:32:57,410 --> 00:32:58,802
Apparently, your stylist
fell through,
635
00:32:58,889 --> 00:33:00,848
and instead of staying
on snack duty,
636
00:33:01,022 --> 00:33:03,938
letting this whole event fail,
I stepped up.
637
00:33:04,069 --> 00:33:05,809
'Cause that's what
real sistahs do.
638
00:33:05,896 --> 00:33:08,377
Well, this is a Graceties event,
so don't embarrass me.
639
00:33:08,551 --> 00:33:09,552
Or yourself.
640
00:33:13,078 --> 00:33:16,081
Alright, everybody,
let's get this show started.
641
00:33:16,211 --> 00:33:18,083
Styled by Eve's Crown.
642
00:33:35,100 --> 00:33:36,753
Looks like Wakanda
came to the Bluffs.
643
00:33:36,884 --> 00:33:39,539
Not Wakanda --
Eve's Crown.
644
00:34:04,607 --> 00:34:06,696
You wanted them to see how
special Eve's Crown could be.
645
00:34:06,870 --> 00:34:08,568
They're seeing it, baby.
646
00:34:19,666 --> 00:34:20,580
You are wasted.
647
00:34:20,667 --> 00:34:24,279
Taylor! Taylor!
648
00:34:26,586 --> 00:34:29,110
Are you okay?
649
00:34:29,284 --> 00:34:30,285
Lauren, you're --
650
00:34:30,459 --> 00:34:32,113
What?
Hey.
651
00:34:32,287 --> 00:34:35,160
Look, I know
we're not really...
652
00:34:35,290 --> 00:34:38,380
Don't touch me....friends or anything,
653
00:34:38,511 --> 00:34:41,383
but, uh, I-I saw
the two of you together.
654
00:34:41,514 --> 00:34:42,819
What?
655
00:34:48,956 --> 00:34:50,349
Where'd you get that?
656
00:34:50,523 --> 00:34:53,265
Uh, Taylor must have put it
in my bag, you know?
657
00:34:53,352 --> 00:34:55,919
Maybe she wanted someone
to know the truth.
658
00:34:56,006 --> 00:34:57,399
So you don't have to hide.
I-I can --
659
00:34:57,530 --> 00:35:00,272
No, what do you --
what do you want me to do?
660
00:35:00,359 --> 00:35:01,969
Huh?
661
00:35:02,143 --> 00:35:03,797
Y-You want me to around
and slap pronouns on my chest?
662
00:35:03,971 --> 00:35:06,756
Well, we don't get
- to do that here.
- Shh. Be quiet.
663
00:35:06,843 --> 00:35:09,063
Look, I sat by
my grandmother's bed...
Ugh.
664
00:35:09,194 --> 00:35:10,543
...waiting for her
to wake up,
665
00:35:10,630 --> 00:35:12,849
and she was the only one
who really knew me, so...
666
00:35:12,980 --> 00:35:14,721
But lying to the police
about being with her that night
667
00:35:14,808 --> 00:35:16,636
is worse than lying
about who you are.
668
00:35:16,723 --> 00:35:18,203
So...
669
00:35:18,333 --> 00:35:21,554
You better
keep your mouth shut.
670
00:35:21,728 --> 00:35:22,729
- Lauren.
- I'm sorry.
671
00:35:22,903 --> 00:35:24,774
What's going on?
672
00:35:24,948 --> 00:35:27,168
Uh, M-Mom, she --
she keeps threatening --
673
00:35:27,255 --> 00:35:28,604
- threatening me.
- Threatening you?
674
00:35:28,778 --> 00:35:30,737
What is with you
and your family?
675
00:35:30,824 --> 00:35:32,217
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
676
00:35:32,347 --> 00:35:34,349
You got some nerve.
677
00:35:34,523 --> 00:35:35,611
Leah, you know what?
678
00:35:35,785 --> 00:35:37,439
I saved you tonight.
679
00:35:37,570 --> 00:35:39,354
This victory is mine,
not yours.
680
00:35:39,441 --> 00:35:42,314
But you still haven't
said thank you.
681
00:35:42,401 --> 00:35:43,532
Act like you were
raised right.
682
00:35:43,706 --> 00:35:45,534
Raised right?
683
00:35:49,669 --> 00:35:52,193
Why don't we turn that mirror
around on you?
684
00:35:52,367 --> 00:35:53,629
What now, Leah?
Geez.
685
00:35:53,803 --> 00:35:56,197
Ever since I got here,
you've been on me,
686
00:35:56,284 --> 00:35:57,764
judging me
for everything I do.
687
00:35:57,851 --> 00:35:59,592
What --Because you've been lying!
688
00:35:59,679 --> 00:36:01,202
Your mother never
summered here.
689
00:36:01,376 --> 00:36:03,770
She was a maid.
690
00:36:03,857 --> 00:36:07,077
You trying to tear me down
in front of all these people?
691
00:36:07,252 --> 00:36:09,471
Does it make you
feel good?
692
00:36:09,602 --> 00:36:12,474
Yeah, my mother was a maid,
and I know who I am.
693
00:36:12,605 --> 00:36:14,520
I know my worth.
694
00:36:14,694 --> 00:36:17,610
I know that you're hiding
the truth about your mother.
695
00:36:17,784 --> 00:36:21,831
Yeah, Evelyn Vaughn --
she was a maid here,
696
00:36:21,962 --> 00:36:24,834
but she was also arrested
697
00:36:24,921 --> 00:36:28,011
for intent to distribute
over in Edgartown.
698
00:36:28,098 --> 00:36:30,710
Oh, yeah, she was peddling it
out of her makeshift salon.
699
00:36:32,668 --> 00:36:34,627
So you can try to twist this
any way you want to
700
00:36:34,714 --> 00:36:37,456
and try to make it seem like
I am mistreating you.
701
00:36:37,630 --> 00:36:40,023
But we all know that
you've been lying
702
00:36:40,110 --> 00:36:41,808
to gain access
into this club.
703
00:36:41,895 --> 00:36:44,593
No. It's -- I --
704
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,595
It's not true. I...
705
00:37:07,442 --> 00:37:09,836
I assume that
the request to meet
706
00:37:09,923 --> 00:37:12,099
meant that your tantrum
was done.
707
00:37:12,273 --> 00:37:13,927
I tore someone down
today
708
00:37:14,101 --> 00:37:16,364
out of the belief
that I was doing good,
709
00:37:16,538 --> 00:37:18,758
but I don't think my ends
justified my means.
710
00:37:18,932 --> 00:37:21,717
And that made me think about you
and all that you've done.
711
00:37:21,891 --> 00:37:23,850
And I will not
stand for it.
712
00:37:23,937 --> 00:37:25,765
You see, you may be
the patriarch now,
713
00:37:25,939 --> 00:37:29,508
but I am
the heir apparent.
714
00:37:29,638 --> 00:37:31,858
So, I'm taking over
the company.
715
00:37:35,644 --> 00:37:37,864
Wait for it, Daddy.
Wait for it.
716
00:37:37,951 --> 00:37:39,518
You're retiring early.
717
00:37:41,781 --> 00:37:43,086
And why would I agree
to that?
718
00:37:43,173 --> 00:37:45,741
I have a dossier filled
with your dirty deeds.
719
00:37:45,872 --> 00:37:50,137
I mean, I'm sure the feds would
love to investigate your deals
720
00:37:50,311 --> 00:37:52,748
with just one phone call
from me.
721
00:37:52,879 --> 00:37:54,576
I cut the legs
off your precious table.
722
00:37:54,750 --> 00:37:55,838
I-I fixed the incline.
723
00:37:55,925 --> 00:37:58,319
Uh-huh.
724
00:37:58,493 --> 00:38:00,669
You know, ever since
I was little,
725
00:38:00,756 --> 00:38:04,325
all I ever wanted from you
was your respect.
726
00:38:04,456 --> 00:38:08,460
You have my love.
Respect is earned.
727
00:38:08,634 --> 00:38:13,160
Well, you asked me to find
a seat at your table.
728
00:38:13,334 --> 00:38:15,162
Mm-hmm.
And I found one.
729
00:38:15,336 --> 00:38:18,165
Yours.
730
00:38:18,252 --> 00:38:21,995
So, I'm gonna move to be named
head of this company,
731
00:38:22,125 --> 00:38:24,171
because it's not
just about the money.
732
00:38:24,345 --> 00:38:26,173
It's about building up
Black folks.
733
00:38:26,347 --> 00:38:27,566
Ah.
734
00:38:27,696 --> 00:38:29,611
You think
you're different,
735
00:38:29,698 --> 00:38:33,615
but you're just as addicted
to money and power as I am.
736
00:38:33,702 --> 00:38:35,356
I mean, my blood runs
through your veins.
737
00:38:35,487 --> 00:38:36,705
But you win.
738
00:38:36,879 --> 00:38:38,838
Tonight.
739
00:38:39,012 --> 00:38:40,840
I'm just better at this
than you are.
740
00:38:41,014 --> 00:38:42,711
Enjoy the rest of your summer,
Daddy.
741
00:38:42,798 --> 00:38:44,800
But it won't be
in this room.
742
00:38:51,590 --> 00:38:53,069
Alright.
743
00:38:53,243 --> 00:38:55,376
Here are all the documents
from her case.
744
00:38:55,550 --> 00:38:56,725
Thank you.
745
00:38:56,812 --> 00:38:57,944
I know you had to call
in a favor for this.
746
00:38:58,031 --> 00:38:59,772
Perk of being a D.A.
Okay?
747
00:38:59,859 --> 00:39:01,948
I have to have this back
to the station by morning.
748
00:39:02,035 --> 00:39:03,863
- Thank you.
- Alright.
749
00:39:03,950 --> 00:39:06,605
Eve never touched a drug
a day in her life.
750
00:39:06,692 --> 00:39:08,171
Damn near disowned me
when I got hooked up
751
00:39:08,258 --> 00:39:09,782
with a dealer
back in the '80s.
752
00:39:11,827 --> 00:39:13,873
Oh, my God.
753
00:39:14,047 --> 00:39:15,918
Y'all, come here.
754
00:39:16,049 --> 00:39:18,834
Teddy, tell them I didn't
sell drugs in the shop!
755
00:39:18,965 --> 00:39:21,533
It's gonna be okay,
but you have to listen to me.
756
00:39:38,637 --> 00:39:40,682
Teddy Franklin
is my father.
757
00:39:42,292 --> 00:39:45,252
No.
No, she would've told me.
758
00:39:45,339 --> 00:39:48,255
But she didn't, and you two
were like white on rice.
759
00:39:48,342 --> 00:39:50,213
We gotta start asking why.
760
00:39:50,300 --> 00:39:53,216
I mean, we just watched him
shut her up.
761
00:39:53,303 --> 00:39:55,393
Mama Eve hid this
building from me
762
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,395
until
right before she died,
763
00:39:57,482 --> 00:39:59,832
'cause she wanted me
to come here
764
00:39:59,919 --> 00:40:02,225
and find out
what he did to her.
765
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,227
That's exactly
what I'm gonna do.
766
00:40:09,929 --> 00:40:12,671
Thought you were gonna be at
the office late for a meeting.
767
00:40:12,801 --> 00:40:16,675
I was.
With my father.
768
00:40:16,805 --> 00:40:19,155
Turns out,
he's retiring early.
769
00:40:19,329 --> 00:40:22,071
- Your father's retiring?
- Mm-hmm.
770
00:40:22,158 --> 00:40:27,468
And I'm gonna be named
chairwoman of Franklin Holdings.
771
00:40:27,599 --> 00:40:30,471
I'm gonna control
all of it.
772
00:40:30,602 --> 00:40:33,909
Well, I guess congratulations
are in order.
773
00:40:34,083 --> 00:40:36,129
Mrs. Franklin-Dupont?
774
00:40:36,303 --> 00:40:38,784
Ms. Vaughn is here
to retrieve her wig.
775
00:40:50,970 --> 00:40:53,102
I hear you wanted
to pick the wig up yourself.
776
00:40:53,189 --> 00:40:54,756
It costs a lot to make.
777
00:40:54,843 --> 00:40:56,323
I don't have money
to just throw away.
778
00:40:56,497 --> 00:40:58,934
Well, I'm glad
you stopped by.
779
00:40:59,065 --> 00:41:01,850
I wanted to talk about
what happened earlier.
780
00:41:02,024 --> 00:41:05,767
I'm not in the business
of tearing down Black woman.
781
00:41:05,941 --> 00:41:09,510
I'm actually in the business
of building up our sisters.
782
00:41:09,641 --> 00:41:12,078
Hell, I want to build
a whole community,
783
00:41:12,165 --> 00:41:16,735
because that's what being
a Gracetie means to me.
784
00:41:16,909 --> 00:41:20,565
We do the same thing,
just differently.
785
00:41:20,739 --> 00:41:22,741
We're two sides
of the same coin.
786
00:41:22,915 --> 00:41:26,875
Two very different sides
of the same coin.
787
00:41:26,962 --> 00:41:29,182
Because of the amount of money
in our bank accounts?
788
00:41:29,356 --> 00:41:32,751
I'm starting to get the rules
around here.
789
00:41:32,838 --> 00:41:36,189
To be honest with you,
from where I stand,
790
00:41:36,363 --> 00:41:38,104
you're a slave to them.
791
00:41:38,191 --> 00:41:40,759
I'm not a slave
to anything.
792
00:41:40,933 --> 00:41:43,109
But you humiliated me,
793
00:41:43,196 --> 00:41:45,590
all because you were
so desperate
794
00:41:45,764 --> 00:41:48,114
to serve this lifestyle.
795
00:41:48,201 --> 00:41:50,899
Maybe you the real
"maid" up in here.
796
00:41:50,986 --> 00:41:52,988
My mother left me
one thing.
797
00:41:53,119 --> 00:41:55,208
The one thing she had is
that old boarding house
798
00:41:55,382 --> 00:41:57,819
down on Delois Street.
799
00:41:57,993 --> 00:41:59,255
You know it?
800
00:41:59,429 --> 00:42:01,519
My family used to own it.
801
00:42:01,606 --> 00:42:03,782
Come see about me.
802
00:42:03,912 --> 00:42:06,349
Eve's Crown can hook up
those dry ends.
803
00:42:17,447 --> 00:42:18,797
Daddy, who's that girl?
804
00:42:18,971 --> 00:42:21,626
No one you need to concern
yourself with, Leah.
805
00:42:23,018 --> 00:42:25,020
Angie!
806
00:42:50,437 --> 00:42:53,396
Got to secure the crown,
right, Mama?
807
00:43:34,916 --> 00:43:37,615
Don't miss the new series,
our kind of people.
