I got a contract
With her, charity.

I thought you loved me. I did.

Hey, where are you at right now?
On tour.

I've just been noticing
A lot of empty envelopes.

In the offering.

I think someone
Might be stealing.

Where is the money?
What did I tell you?

You know, Satan is always busy.

That old devil
Sent us a tax bill.

Saying we owe $2 million.

And james and I Were hoping.

That you'd be able
To help us out here.

I filed for divorce. What?!

Mae My husband had me served
With these divorce papers,

And I just want to know
What my options are.

Once your bishop is done
With you, the party is over.

Have either of the two
Of you ladies.

Ever heard Of maxine patterson?

- The preacher?
- We went to college together.

I'm sorry. I forgive you.

It's just me I can't
Forgive now for marrying you.

And making our life My calling.

When I knew that
I was called by god.

Man Maxine patterson speaks
to today's society

concerning our minds,
lives and souls.

Powerful,
innovative and current,

maxine gets intimate
in this new series.

So what is it that you young
folks say, "Stop tripping"?

When are you going to understand

that god is
in everything you do?

He's in that job you hate,
that bad marriage,

and can I be real?

That weight problem,
but that's what you want

God all up in your business.
Thank you, lord.

Facade somewhere else,

And let's go back and have fun
Like we did back in the day.

Some pork rinds and orange pop.

Ooh, you ain't said
Nothing but a word. Gloria?

No. No, thank you.

Okay, when you're ready.

Mae, why are you here?

To tell you That you were right.

A perfectly good one.

Which one?

Calvary, honey.

Calvary?

Listen, listen,

I look at those folks
All the time.

The pastors and the first
Ladies, they divorce,

But the pastor stays.
He lives high off the hog.

He be eating
While the first ladies,

They be trying to find a piece
Of bread inside a church.

As I'm concerned,
He soiled this.

Let him run off
And start something.

Signed and everything?

Yes, indeed.

Thank you so much.

It's nothing.

Beautiful.
Now, how is everything going?

Great. Flowers are here.
Food is here.

We're just waiting on
Some last-minute rentals,

And we're set.

Beautiful, look at this.

Maricel, you did a wonderful
Job on the sunroom.

Thank you, ma'am.

And I know you were thinking
About canceling...

But everyone
Is so excited to come.

So, now, we are
Expecting a good turnout?

Yes.

The entire round table
Ended up rsvping except for one.

And who might that be?

Ms. Cross.

Well, I hope she isn't too ill.

And jacob called.

They're coming from therapy,
So they'll be here,

But they'll run late.

Jacob and the family Are coming?

The bishop told me
To invite them.

Excuse me, ma'am, Ms. Jackson.

Well, I think you're needed.

Very good work, everyone.
It's beautiful.

What are you doing
In here, james?

Maricel had
The guest bath cleaned.

I didn't want to
Take a shower there.

Is someone coming over?

No, no, but you know
How folk like to roam.

I... I'll get Out of your way.

Karine did tell me That jacob,

Kerissa and the children
Were coming over.

Well, you know
How clara loves jacob,

And we still don't have
That check of hers in hand.

So in the interest of putting on
A good show...

That makes sense.

Break a leg.

Now, zora,
When we get over there,

I don't want you
Sneaking around upstairs.

I'm not going to Sneak anywhere.

Zora, you need to be
Respectful to your father,

Me and everybody else
At this thing, or you can't go.

I get it.

And you need
To correct that tone,

Or you're going
Straight to boot camp.

As long as you aren't...

- I'm sorry. I didn't catch that.
- I'll be in the car.

Empty threats don't help.

Who's making empty threats?

Come on, baby.

I have filled out
The application.

I've written the check.

All I have to do is put
Two stamps on the envelope.

You are never
Sending my daughter.

To some boot camp In oregon.

Yeah, well,
She's my daughter, too.

Then come up With a better idea.

Roberta's here.

Okay, we'll be
Right down, honey.

Darius Wow.

Will you give me a zip, Please?

I'd rather not, But sure.

Now, you know you're about
To meet a bunch.

Of very old church ladies.

Who are going to ask
Where you've been, mister.

All your life? Every sunday.

Well, I'll just tell them
I've been somewhere.

Near the corner
Of sportscenter and the bed.

You know you're going
To have to come to church.

At some point, right?
I know you keep saying that.

Okay, so what's it going to
Take to get you to come?

Ooh. Stop it.

Okay, to church?

Yes. Okay, I...

I know what might sway me.

Drove by ebenezer Last sunday.

They had a really
Interesting thing.

What was it?

Free car wash.

You get the water spots out
My hood and touch up the chrome,

I'd come...

Or at least until they'd
Text me and told me it was done.

You're lucky I'm christian.

We agree on that.

Voicemail The mailbox you are
attempting to reach is full.

She's still Not picking up.

What do you want to do?

Let's just call the cops.

That would be
The nuclear option.

She's basically
Kidnapping my son.

Kevin, Once you go that route,

Things could get
Real messy fast.

Are you sure You want that?

I mean, She is nathan's mother.

Excuse me, bishop.
Mr. Thompson is here.

Percy lee thompson,

I'm so glad
They let your old bones.

Out that cemetery
To come and see me.

Now, the only reason
I was in that cemetery.

Was waiting for your
Old bones to arrive.

Well, my bones are fine.

It does my heart good
To see you, old friend.

It's good to be seen.

How long has it been?

Charity's wedding.

Ooh, I've missed you.

James, you told me On the phone.

That this was going
To be a party.

You didn't say it was going
To be such a gala occasion.

Well, it isn't, Actually.

Um, every year, we thank
The bishop's roundtable.

For their service
And generosity.

It's kind of a tradition.

Yeah, But it's a tradition.

It has nothing to do
With percy lee thompson.

Now, you know, last time
I stepped foot in a church,

I was hiding from an angry
Father with a shotgun.

Well, there is a reason
I wanted you here.

Man, I've been having trouble
Lately, well, more than trouble,

And I thought I would
Use this occasion.

To take one last time
To bridge the gap,

And since you're the one
Who introduced us,

I thought, well, maybe,
Maybe she'll listen to you.

Percy lee?

My goodness.

What are you doing here?

I thought you were too busy.

To be bothered
With your old friends.

Well, if my people
Can't find a way.

To run a funeral home
For a few hours,

Then shame on them.

As if you would let
Anybody there.

Make a decision Without you.

Well, whatever,
We're just happy to have you.

It just brings me
Back to the old days.

When we had those
Delicious shoulder sandwiches.

And coleslaw At hawkin's grill.

Don't forget the beer,
Ice-cold beer.

Yes.

Now, if you two
Haven't gotten too fancy,

Perhaps you can point me
In the direction.

Of where I can Go to get one.

Well, They're still setting up,

But the, the bar
Is straight in the back.

I'm sure they'll
Find you a cold one.

- Mae?
- Yes, please, help yourself.

First jacob and kerissa,
Now percy lee?

James, What is going on here?

Nothing.

I talked to percy last night.
He said he was free.

Well, if that's all it is,
Fine, but...

But what?

We're done, james,
So whatever is going on tonight,

We're done.

I made up my mind.

Karine.

Karine,
Would you please have them.

Make all of the bouquets bigger,
Grand, every flower we have?

Karine Yes, first lady.

I mean it, james.

I want it to be spectacular.

Welcome. Thank you.
Make yourselves at home.

Always glad. Thanks.

Son.

Clara So where have
You been hiding him?

I haven't seen you At calvary.

I cover religion
For the statesmen,

And I'm usually On assignment.

Well, I supposed
It's a good thing

I haven't seen you
Snooping around calvary then.

Mae, mae. Yes, clara.

You must have been so proud
Seeing grace on the front page.

What was that headline?

"The women changing
Memphis megachurches."

Yes, I'm so proud.

I... I was just on my way
To have some shrimp.

Have you tried them, Clara?

Well, there's nothing
Wrong with my legs.

I'll go walk
Over there with you.

Yes.

Didn't I tell you?

Hold on. I'll be right back.

Kevin, What are you doing here?

Looking for charity.
Is she here?

No. She's on tour.

Yeah, You sure about that?

I think so. Bishop said
She quit for a minute,

But she went right back. Why?

Because she's ignoring
My phone calls,

And I finally got
In touch with jabari,

And the tour is in raleigh,
And she's not with him.

She's not here.

Then where is she?

You know, let's just
Call her, okay?

Come on. Come on.
Let's give her a call.

Can I get you a cocktail?

Can I have a georgia peach?

Hey, sis.

Hey, where are you?

On tour.

Okay, well, I'm here with kevin.

Where? He's at the house.

He's looking for you, Baby.

Of course he is.

He said he talked to jabari
And that you're not on tour,

But I told him
That we all know that you are.

Yeah, well, that didn't
Really work out.

Where are you?

I'm tcob-ing.

I'm taking care Of business.

Are you by a pool?
Grace, I'm doing what I want.

Kevin did what he wanted,
So I can do the same.

Is nathan with you?

They have trained,
Registered nannies, grace,

So don't start acting like
I'm some kind of negligent mama.

All right.
Just give me the phone, grace.

- He wants to talk to you.
- Yeah, well, I'm busy.

She says she's busy.
All right. Give me that thing.

What?

Charity.

She hung up. That's it.
We're calling the cops.

Hey, kevin, wait.
Just please don't.

She's not giving me
A choice, grace.

It's only been A few days.

It's been over a week.

Hey, listen to me.

You know that you've had
Your moments, okay?

Just give her A beat, please.

Please don't let him
Call the cops.

It's not up to me...

Aaron.

But I hear you. I'll do my best.

You say I'm too harsh, but you
Want to send her to a boot camp?

It's not a boot camp, Jacob.

It's a behavior
Modification program.

It works, and they have
Counselors there.

With experience handling
Tough cases like this.

You handle difficult kids
And parents every day.

They didn't just show up
To excellence.

Already being excellent.

This is different.

We don't know how to
Get through to zora.

She needs Professional help.

Baby, this oregon stuff
Just sounds like.

Some mind-control,
Weird, white-people nonsense.

I'm not going to
Throw my money away.

So she can go frolic
About a lake with some beavers.

I think We should just...

So what are you two over here
Talking about.

That's got you Looking so grim?

Well, your son
Was just making fun of me.

For drinking port wine.

Says I might as well be eating
A whole pie, it's so sweet.

Yeah, I don't Really get port.

Excuse us.

Now, that is my favorite
Of the two of you.

- Look how little winkie is.
- I know, so adorable.

How you holding up, Mama?

No. I'm the mother.

I get to ask The questions.

What is going on
Between you and kerissa?

You can tell me.

She wants to send
Zora off to oregon.

To some boot camp
For troubled kids.

Oregon? Yeah.

We caught her stealing from
The offering plate at triumph.

You all should bring her
To me for a while.

Okay. I actually love that idea.

Yep, because that child
Would not dare.

Disrespect me In my house.

I'll bring it up to kerissa.

Perfect. That's settled.

James Come on in.

Come on in, everyone,
Gather around.

Mae, if you will.

Ecclesiastes 49 teaches us
That two is better than one.

Because they have good reward
For their labor.

If they fall,
The one lifts up his fellow.

If they lie together,
They have heat,

But how can one Be warm alone?

The bishop's roundtable has long
Been a partner with this church,

An ever-present partner
In good times and in bad.

All Amen.

Mae and I have counted on you.

All in ways too numerous
To mention.

And too important to forget,

So we've called you here
To say thank you.

Amen.

But I want to say
One more thing

I want my children
And grandchildren.

To come forward
For this, please.

When I was young, I didn't know
The lord's plan for my life.

I thought I was going to be
A lonely preacher.

Traveling from town to town
Because I'd never met a woman.

Who took her faith
As seriously as I took mine.

But god intervened!

Amen. Indeed he did,
In the form of you, percy,

Who introduced me
To a certain young woman.

Whose piety impressed me
So completely that I...

I turned my back
On my lonely vision of the road.

And inclined My soul to hers.

Mae, I have fallen often
On life's journey,

But ever since
The good lord saw fit.

To send you To light my path,

I have never felt forsaken,
Cold or unsure,

And if god spare my life,

I intend to spend
The next 40-plus years.

The same way I spent the last,

In love with you.

This church, this family,

Which my loving wife
And I have built together,

Lo these many beautiful years,
Let no man pull asunder.

That was just beautiful.

The bishop loves His first lady.

And I daresay
That you set the bar.

For romance Pretty high there.

- Anytime.
- Thanks.

I'm not leaving this house until
I can raid that closet of yours.

You look very nice, too.

Well, thank you so much.

I'm just trying
To keep up with you.

Now, who is this, bae?

This is my boyfriend,
Darius nash.

Darius, This is rochelle cross.

- I've heard a lot about you.
- Pleasure to meet you.

I was asking grace earlier
Where she's been hiding him.

Well, she's just Being sensible.

She knows she bring
A treat around like this,

Everybody going To want a taste.

Mae...
What is that woman doing here?

I don't know, And I don't...

I'll take care of it.

Please do.

Have you read that new
Article on our grace?

Honey, I've already told her.

I must have read it 10 times.

Now, listen She's doing
A lot of great things,

And it would be awesome
If you could contribute.

To one of her funds.

We are always looking
For new donors.

If you want to take a look
At the mission statement.

I'm actually Already tied up.

With other obligations
At calvary right now,

So unfortunately, no.

You know I understand,
Absolutely.

- Ms. Cross?
- Yes?

- May I have a word?
- Absolutely.

If you ladies
Would excuse me, and gentleman.

Please.

Such a nice lady.

Isn't she, though?

Have I done Something wrong?

You know I'm trying to repair
My relationship with my wife.

Yes.

Your wife is a lucky woman,
And this is a gorgeous party.

I've asked you for space.

And I've given you Just that.

How much more space Do you need?

Well, to start,
You shouldn't be here.

I'm still A member of calvary.

Whole roundtable is here.

Surely you must know
What it looks like.

Rochelle You have to understand
What it would look like.

If I wasn't here.

James, nothing happened
Between us.

What, do you except me
To just slink off into the night.

Like some Shameful secret?

It's not about secrets.

You called me and asked me
To meet you at the biltmore...

Rochelle.

When you know
I'm in love with you.

Rochelle, please.

No. You let me finish.

I can't continue to act
Like you pulling me in.

And pushing me away
Doesn't hurt.

Forgive me
If I haven't been clear.

"Clear," like the way
You held me in your arms.

Like you wanted To kiss me.

As you told me
You loved your wife.

Or maybe the way you told me
To stay away while looking at me.

Like a man dying of thirst
In front of water.

Bishop, I've been very clear.

You've been anything but.

I thought I was.

And if I haven't been,

Well, if I've given you
Some reason to hope,

I...

I'm sorry.

She's leaving.

Why are you Talking to me?

Your business is
Clearly with her, not me.

Like I told you, james...

We're done.

Clara, my dear,
Let me show you what we did.

It is so...

Good night, clara.

You taking off so soon?

Well, you know what they say.
Money never sleeps.

I'm, I'm sorry. Excuse me.

Do you mind if I have
A word with you?

Sure. Okay.

Excuse me.

Let me know
If you change your mind.

On donating Into grace's fund.

We'll see, Maybe next year.

It does sound
Like a worthy cause.

If you don't Mind me asking,

What does the church
Have you tied up in?

If you weren't
In the roundtable, I'd tell you,

But it's a personal matter
With bishop and lady mae.

Well, I hope
They're not in trouble.

I... they seem so blissfully
Happy, almost puzzling so.

Um, you sure You can't say?

I really can't say.

God knows I love my bishop,
But if I was your money manager,

I would definitely advise you
To vet out whatever it is.

And just make sure
You're protected.

Thank you. Have a good night.

Good night.

Sorry about the phone thing,
But I got your tv back.

Can I get some credit
For that at least?

My tv didn't last long.

My dad thinks I'm taking
From the collection, so...

Are you? No.

So where did you Get that money.

You wanted me to buy
The phone with from?

It was leftover cash
From my birthday.

I'm not a thief, sophia.

Okay, okay.

My dad, like, Went hulk on me.

He was, like, busting open my
Drawers, almost broke my lamp.

Wow, that's messed up.

Yeah.

You okay?

I'll be fine.

Ready?

Yeah. We're going to go take
A walk down by the lake.

Want to come?
No, thanks. I'm fine.

I don't know. It's just
It's that same thing...

- Grace.
- Ma'am?

Was that kevin satterlee

I saw you speaking
With a few moments ago?

You know it was.

Do you know Where he went?

Ma'am, he left.

I was hoping To talk to him.

Ms. Connie, about what,
If I may ask?

Why he stopped
Coming to calvary.

His son is a member.

Even if he and charity
Are no longer a couple.

Well, perhaps if we join the
Open and inclusive coalition,

He'll come back.

He's perfectly Free to come now.

As long as he hides Who he is.

No one asks him
To hide anything.

No. They don't.

They just expect it,
Demand it, really.

Same old grace.

I just wonder who is going
To be filling those pews.

It worries me, too.

Then why don't we
Join the coalition?

There are thousands Of gay,

Lesbian and transgender
People in memphis.

Who are looking
For a church home.

The fact that
We don't welcome them...

What?

Just keep praying That one day.

You'll outgrow that old habit
Of agitating.

For every underdog But jesus.

Every underdog is jesus.

Excuse me.

- Night, connie.
- Good night.

Fresh glass.

Thank you.

What's with all The smiles?

Well, my mother gave the best
Advice of about zora hands down.

I'm scared to hear. What was it?

She said she can Stay with her.

No.

She can handle her, Keke.

I don't need Your mother's help.

You?

Baby, we need
A bible-based environment,

Not some blair witch project
In the woods.

Stop it. I don't like it.

Zora listens to my mother,
And mom will keep her in check.

Just like she did me
And my sisters.

Like she kept Faith in check?

That's out of line.

And what do you call
Discussing our family matters.

With your mother?

It's family.

You know what? I'm ready to go.

I'm going To go get our kids.

I'm sorry.

Soft beat,

Wait, stop, stop.

What's wrong?

Let's just go back inside.

I think I'm just
Going to head home.

Don't be mad.

I'm not. I'll call you later.

Hey, I was just
Checking up on some new

Netflix stuff, Hope that's okay.

Well, sorry.

No. It's not that.

It's roberto.

I think he wants
To have sex with me.

Whoa, that's so weird.

Right? I mean,
I thought I was going...

Girl, I'm joking.

There is literally
Nothing weird about that.

But I want to wait
Until marriage.

Why?

Because the bible
Is so clear about...

Look, I'll show you.

Who is cashmoney2995?

That's, um, you know
Calvin from school, right?

Why are you still
Talking to isaiah?

What's the matter with you?

What's the matter with you?

He hits you, zora!

He talks to you like a child,
And he embarrasses you.

He loves me.

No. That is not love, zora.

And what do you know about love,
Ms. Goody two-shoes?

And you want to talk
About embarrassing?

You embarrass me.

You embarrassed me
At the cotillion,

And you're Embarrassing me now.

I'm embarrassed
To know your ass.

Why would you Even say that?

Because it's true.

We used to have
So much fun together,

And you used to be cool,
And now you're not.

Every time I talk to you,

You suck the life
Out of me, sophia.

Every time we talk,
It's "Christian this" and...

And "Bible that."

I'm starting to wonder
If you even believe.

Why do you keep trying
To convince everybody...

I'm not trying
To convince everybody.

- Yes, yes, yes, you are.
- No. I'm not trying to convince.

Everybody.
I'm just happy to be saved,

And maybe if you weren't
So distracted.

By this pile of trash,
You'd be happy, too.

Do you even remember
What that feels like?

Yeah, yeah, I do.

All I got to do is think of
A time before I knew you,

And "Pile of trash," Okay,

Is that how god's Little bitch.

Likes to show love
To all mankind?

What did you call me?

God's little bitch.

What, you deaf now?

Is... is your head so far up
Your ass you can't hear?

I could really
Slap you right now.

Go ahead, z. Let's see
How well he taught you.

Go ahead. Do it.

Girls, hey, girls! Hey! Stop it!

Let go. Stop it right now.

What has gotten Into you two?

You... you were Looking at that?

Was she looking at that?

What is this plan?
What is this all about?

If you think that you're
Moving out when you turn 18,

You need to think again.

You have no choice.

Once I turn 18, I'm going,
And I'm going to be with isaiah,

And it doesn't matter
What you, dad...

You better get your hand
Out my face, little girl.

Or anybody else Can do about it.

Thank you.

I cannot thank you and bishop...
Ooh.

Enough for such
A festive evening,

But my granddaughter here
Seems to think

I've had enough bubbles
For one evening.

We will be toasting Again soon.

Won't we, clara?
In a couple of weeks?

I'm glad You brought that up.

I'm thinking
It might be wise for us.

To sit down
With my money people,

You, me, bishop,

Go over this transfer
Of funds one more time...

Just to get
A sober look at things.

In the light of day?

You ready, karine? Yes, grandma.

Well, clara, bishop and I
Will be more than happy.

To sit down
With your money people.

Good. Yes.

And, karine, you will let me
Know when that's on the books.

Will do.

You did a wonderful Job tonight.

Thank you. Thank you.
Come on, grandma.

Good night, dear.

We'll talk soon.

All right. Good night.

Good night.

Grace Connie.

May I?

Please.

Don't tell me, The deacon board.

Has decided to join
The coalition?

No.

But could you see
Yourself running a church.

That wasn't a member
Of the coalition?

Why would you ask me that?

Have you seen the news?

I was just reading it.

Things between your parents have
Been complicated for a while.

And now with this irs thing...

I'm listening.

We obviously see
The christian faith.

A little differently, Grace.

Wish I had a better option,
A more biblically sound option,

But I am no fool.

Calvary is greenleaf,

And in the event
That things between your parents.

Take yet another turn
For the worst,

The deacons may ask you
To step up.

Step up?

Take over as head pastor.

What do you say?

Hey, grandma.
Ta-da, zora's room.

Zora greenleaf,
You get yourself over here.

And give your mother
And father a proper goodbye.

Thanks, mama.
We really appreciate this.

I know it's a weird time.

No. If anything, baby,
I'm inspired.

Aw.

Listen, I promise you I am
Going to get through to her.

Sweetheart.

Thanks, ma.

I'll call you. Okay.

All right.

You have a voice
Like darlene love.

You're the background Singer?

Ma'am, are you
Charity greenleaf?

I knew you were famous.

I need you to come with us.
