ADULT DEAN: In the
'60s, every boy dreamed

of having a treehouse.

A place where he could get away
from it all and be a kid...

Read comics, eat
candy, shoot spitballs,

and have secret make-out
sessions with the girl

no one can ever know
he's making out with.

Dean, what are we doing?

I thought we were kissing.

Am I doing it wrong?
Was that your nose?

What if Broderick finds out?

I know. I do feel bad
for cheating on him.

I'm cheating on him.

I'm his girlfriend.

You're just his friend.

His best friend,
but okay. Whatever.

Up until three months ago, he
thought your name was Gene.

[vehicle approaches, horn honks]

KEISA: I thought you
said no one was home.

[car door closes in distance]

[sighs]

I don't know why you're
getting mad at me.

That judge was treating me
like some sort of thief.

Because you stole a car, Jackie!

ADULT DEAN: Allegedly.

You're supposed to
say "allegedly."

I learned that from
Dragnet. [chuckles, gasps]

Baby, come here!

- Boy, get out!
- JACKIE: No, come, come.

Come to Aunty Jackie.
Oh, look at you!

ADULT DEAN: Man, did
I love my Aunt Jackie.

She was what you'd
call "the fun aunt."

Mostly because she had no
kids of her own to spoil

and no idea of what
was appropriate.

If there's anything
you don't understand,

please ask me, not your mom.

I mean, she's still blaming
me for the time you said

"throbbing manhood" at dinner.

[chuckles]

ADULT DEAN: Mama
loved her sister, too.

But their relationship was
a little more complicated.

We didn't have the expression
"drama queen" back then,

or "hot mess."

But Aunt Jackie
always seemed to be

on the verge of some
emotional crisis.

[sobbing]

Well, uh, lucky for you,

your boyfriend decided
not to press charges.

Ex-boyfriend.

And Keith should have
given me that car,

the way he was
stepping out on me.

Listen, Jackie, you have
to stop living like this.

We can't keep bailing you out.

Think about the example
you're setting for the kids.

You know what?

You're right.

I can't keep doing
what I'm doing...

Going from man to man, job
to job, city to city...

man to man.

You said "man to man" twice.

I said what I said, Bill.

But now it's time for me
to turn over a new leaf.

Yeah, stop all my bad
habits and get right.

Well, that sounds wonderful.

Y'all are such a
good influence on me.

I mean that.

In fact, if I'm going
to turn my life around,

I gotta be closer to y'all.

- Wait, what now?
- I'll move to Montgomery.

Get my own apartment.

How much is this
going to cost me?

Nothing. This is one of the
new leaves I'm turning over.

I am self-sufficient.

'Course I'll have
to stay with you

just for a little while until
I get on my own two feet.

??

? All I know ?

? Ohhh, through the
highs and the lows ?

? I'mma find my way home ?

??

Jackie doesn't mean it.

I've heard this "new leaf" song
before, and I ain't buying it.

$68! $68 I've given your
sister since she got here!

How many times
has she done this?

She makes a mess of her life,

and then expects me to swoop
in and pick up the pieces.

I am not some
machine with buttons

she can push that spits out
cash whenever she wants it.

And she never even thanks me.

In fact, she resents me for
being the responsible one.

And is that something
I'm supposed to be

apologizing for?

Then she makes that crack
about me being cheap.

Bill, there's only room
for one of us to be upset,

and it's the person
whose ponytail

she cut off in the fourth grade.

Right.

So, did you bring me anything?

Say, the sequel to Low
Lies the Heavy Heart?

Oh, no, baby.

I promised your mama I'd
turn over a new leaf.

And those romance novels
will mess with your head.

What? But I have to read it.

I have to know if
Ricardo the stableboy

finds true love
with the Duchess.

Or will society keep them apart?

What's going on?

You know you can
tell me anything.

[sighs]

- Well, I have a girlfriend...
- Sweet!

- Who has a boyfriend...
- Oh.

- Who's also my friend.
- Oof.

Yeah, it's... it's complicated.

Been there.

But I also kind of dig it.

Falling for someone who
you know you shouldn't...

That's called "forbidden fruit."

Yes! Like that one
book about the maid

who falls in love
with the prince.

What's it called?

- Forbidden Fruit.
- Right.

JACKIE: I once
dated this guy...

We were from very
different backgrounds.

He would never introduce
me to his friends.

I wanted him to take
me to his country club,

but of course, that was
out of the question.

He was always wearing
khakis and polos.

ADULT DEAN: Okay, clearly
Aunt Jackie was talking

about sleeping with a white guy.

But that went
right over my head.

All I could think was,

"My life's just like
a romance novel."

How cool is that?

- But we can't.
- But we must.

- But we can't.
- Must!

And if they find out?

Let them talk.

Very well, m'lady.

[horse whinnies]

I just had an idea.

I'm going to invite
Jackie to attend church

with our family on Sunday.

- You think she'll come?
- Of course not!

I'm just calling her bluff.

Calling her bluff
or showing her up?

I'm saving us time.

She's going to crack eventually
and return back to her old ways.

You're right about that.

I'm going to ask her tomorrow.

And watch the excuses
start rolling in.

"I don't have a bible."

"I didn't bring any
church clothes."

"I slept with the pastor."

I ain't pack any church clothes.

But you know what, who cares?

The good Lord will understand
if I'm dressed a little sexier

than those frumpy
old church ladies.

I'd love to join
you. [chuckles]

Wait, what's the pastor's name?

Singleton.

Phew! Okay, let's
go to church!

PASTOR SINGLETON: Yes,
yes. Say "amen," everybody.

- CONGREGATION: Amen.
- Now, if you are wanting

salvation on this morning,

you're in the right place.

Say "amen," somebody.

- CONGREGATION: Amen.
- JACKIE: We should play a game.

Do a shot of communion wine
every time he says "salvation."

"Amen" will get us drunk faster.

[hushed laughter]

Jackie! You could at least
try to present a good example

for your niece and nephew.

Now, before I start my sermon...

- Wait, that wasn't the sermon?
- Jackie.

PASTOR SINGLETON: let me just
take this opportunity to ask

if there are any first-time
visitors with us this morning.

If you're here, come on, stand
and introduce yourselves.

Is there one?

Yes, sister.

Hi, I'm Jackie.

CONGREGATION: Hi, Jackie.

I'd like to start
by giving honor

to the pastor and
the first lady,

the deacons and the elders
and the what-nots...

I also want to thank my older
sister, Lillian Williams...

- Amen.
- JACKIE: who has put me

- on a path to righteousness.
- CONGREGATION: Amen.

She knows Satan has been
very busy in my life,

yes he has.

And I've fallen victim
to that demon alcohol.

I get that from my mama.

She would hide a little
flask in a bag of flour.

You know how that goes.

And I have consorted with
countless loose men...

[congregation murmurs]

which Lillian warned me against.

PASTOR SINGLETON:
Amen, sister. Mm-hmm.

Although, Bill was no
saint when you met him.

Ain't that right, Bill?

[chuckles]

But like the good Lord,

- Lillian was always by my side.
- CONGREGATION: Amen.

Of course, I don't think the
good Lord would have taught me

how to sneak all those
boys into the house

- the way that Lillian did.
- [congregation murmurs]

That's right, she
was fast, y'all.

But now, she saves her
body for Bill and Jesus.

- Oh.
- All right, can I get an amen?

CONGREGATION: Amen.

That was good.

??

See you next Sunday.

I like going to church
with you, Aunt Jackie.

You kept me awake almost
the whole service.

Oh? Thank you,
sweetie. [chuckles]

"See you next Sunday"?
What is she up to?

Look, I'm skeptical, too, but
just in case she is serious

about getting her act
together, wouldn't it be nice

to get her out of our
house and off our payroll?

What are you up to?

I heard you mention
there's an opening

in the secretarial
pool at your office.

You want me to work
with my sister?

We are still on holy grounds,

so I will just say
that will not happen.

Hi, there. We're
Vivian and Cliff Long.

We're friends of
the Williams family.

A-And we look forward
to hearing all the dirt

about Lillian back in the day.

- [chuckles]
- [chuckles] Oh,

I couldn't do that,

unless you ask me real
nice and buy me a drink.

[laughter]

Actually, maybe you all should
come over for supper tonight.

VIVIAN: Oh, good.

Hey, look, we're there.

Now, warning, I like
my drinks strong.

- So do I.
- [laughs]

- You know what I'm saying?
- Oh, please, Cliff.

She don't want you.

Come on.

All right.

??

[Cliff and Jackie laughing]

You stirring that thing.

Uh-huh. [laughs]

CLIFF: Stir it up.

Jackie, I thought you
were giving up alcohol

on your "path to
righteousness."

It's a grasshopper...
Just a milkshake

with a little kick to it.

Be cool.

"Be cool"? That's my thing.

Can you believe her? Talking
about some "be cool."

How long I've been
saying "be cool"?

[crickets chirping]

[dog barks in distance]

I only have a few
minutes to spare, m'lady.

Eww, don't say that.

ADULT DEAN: Yeah, too much.

But as I learned from
my favorite book,

it's hard to resist
that forbidden fruit.

I hope they have
breath mints in hell,

'cause we ain't stopping.

JACKIE: That was it.

So I moved to Montgomery,
and now all I need is a job.

Oh, you looking for a job?

I'm surprised Lillian
ain't tell you.

Tell me? Tell me what?

Oh, they just told us about
an opening in... in...

An opening in the... In
the Treasury Department.

Uh, Lillian, what's
wrong with you?

What... Is something
stuck on your finger?

What... Oh, i-is a bee in here?

Wait, Treasury... Isn't that
where you work, Lillian?

Yes.

Uh, but no, I don't
think there's a job open.

In fact, I'm surprised
you mentioned it,

considering all the layoffs

that have been happening
in our department.

S-S-Say what? No...
Nobody told me that.

Who... Who they laying off?

Are you keeping
something from me?

No! Girl, I just didn't think
that working for the State

would be exciting
enough for you.

JACKIE: Is that it?

Or are you afraid that
I'll embarrass you?

CLIFF: Is it... Is it me?

A-A-Am I the one
getting the boot?

T-Tell it to me straight,
Lillian. Come on.

If you're really serious,

I'll call Personnel
first thing Monday

and see what they
have available.

Ah! Thank you!

[chuckles] Lillian,
Lillian, Lillian, Lillian,

you're not answering me.
You're not answering me back.

Lillian! Li... Lord!

I know it's a lot, so
don't worry if it takes you

- a while to get it.
- I got it.

It's a lot to remember.

Incoming memos go
in these envelopes.

The bottom name tells
you which inbox.

Outgoing memos get
sorted by department,

then put on the cart to
go out before I leave.

Too bad you couldn't remember
to put some clothes on.

Oh, come on.

Let me at least have
these two buttons.

You are hiding my
light under a bushel.

That's a Bible reference.

I know.

And you better be
taking this seriously.

I put myself on the line
to get you this job.

I get it. You saved
me, you're the hero...

again.

But don't worry.

I know what I'm doing.

You've only had one office job.

I've had 14. Hm!

Oh, Mr. Davidson? Hey.

I-I'd like you to
meet my sister Jackie.

She's gonna be joining
the secretarial pool.

Ah. Welcome aboard, Jackie.

Uh, we're a pretty
happy crew here,

but I still run a tight ship.

Aye-aye, captain. [chuckles]

I do love a man who knows
how to take command.

[whispering] Jackie.

Huh. Never would've
thought the two of you

were sisters, Lillian.

She's a real firecracker.

- Ka-boom!
- Ooh!

Boom, boom, boom!

- Oh, my.
- [laughs]

[sighs]

- What?
- Jackie.

So I told him, "I don't know
about your other girlfriends,

but you're gonna have to
buy me a bottle of champagne

and a boatload of flowers
if you want me to do that."

[laughter]

Lillian, your sister's a hoot!

Wait, you're Lillian's sister?

You're nothing alike.

[laughter]

Now, you know that
promotion Lillian just got?

I could've had that, you know.

But I wanted to let
her shine, you know.

I'm all about my Black queens.

Well, you can call
me "Your Majesty."

[both laugh]

Clifford, here are
the papers you wanted.

Clifford? What
you talking about?

Oh, the "fun police"
is on patrol.

Mr. Davidson asked me

to handle his personal
correspondence.

Ooh, sounds like
everyone loves you.

And who wouldn't
love this? [laughs]

Hey, you two should come down
and visit me one of these days.

Jackie, you've been
there for one day.

You can't be inviting visitors.

I just thought it'd be fun.

The State of Alabama did
not hire you for fun.

- And frankly...
- JACKIE: "Frankly"?

Uh-oh, Professor Killjoy

is starting another
one of her lectures.

[laughs]

You are too familiar with
your superiors and your peers.

I've been working
there for 12 years,

and it can be a
challenging environment.

JACKIE: And that's
what it is, isn't it?

You've been there forever,
and in just one day,

I'm more popular than you.

What? No!

I am not trying to win
a popularity contest.

Mission accomplished.

I'm trying to keep you
from losing your job

during the first week.

That's how you see it.

But I'm trying to change.

And maybe that's something you
can't see, or don't want to.

Kim, can you help me
pick out a work outfit?

Your mama made me dress
like a virgin today.

Mm, she makes me dress
like a virgin, too.

Like a virgin?

Come on, Bill. Get
with the times.

Yeah, tell him, Auntie.

I mean, as long as she's 15...

Good Lord.

ADULT DEAN: The next
day, I went downtown

to run an errand for Mama.

But before I could do
that, I ran into...

- Dean?
- Keisa!

Hey, y-you wanna meet at the
treehouse later? We can...

- Oh.
- Dean!

Long time no see, man.

Hey. Broderick, hi!

I-I haven't seen you since
I got back from New York.

O-Or Keisa.

Uh, I haven't seen Keisa either.

How crazy is that?

I'm taking Keisa
to get ice cream.

You want to come?

Uh, and be a third
wheel? No, sir.

But y-you two have fun, and
don't do anything I wouldn't do.

ADULT DEAN: Well, that was...

disturbing.

And confusing.

Because I actually did
want some ice cream.

I needed to talk it
over with somebody.

So I went to the one person
who always understood.

Hey, Aunt Jackie.

Hey, baby.

Let me finish this, and
then I'll get you a snack.

You know, there's free
stuff in the kitchen.

And by free, I mean don't let
anyone see you take anything.

[laughs]

- Jackie?
- Keith?!

- [gasps]
- LILLIAN: Dean?

- DEAN: Mom!
- Who's he?

Oh, that's Keith.

He came back, just like
Rodrigo in the stables

after the Duke's hunting party.

How did you find me?

Your sister called me.

- Lillian?
- Uh, Jackie, Keith.

When you first came back, I
made a few calls to Atlanta,

just to see what you were up to.

I didn't think he would come.

It don't matter what
got me back here.

Jackie, I know
I'm not perfect...

Ha! That's an understatement.

But after you left,

I realized I made a big
mistake letting you go.

And then I heard you got a job,

and you're trying to
turn your life around,

and, well, it inspired me
to try to be a better man.

Like those men in
those books you love.

WOMEN: Aww.

So, I'm gonna get a job, too.

And if you want to
live in Montgomery,

then I'll come to Montgomery.

Just so long as we
can be together.

Oh, boo star!

- [laughs]
- [applause]

ADULT DEAN: I couldn't
believe this was happening.

It was just like
a romance novel!

The poor,
ne'er-do-well scoundrel

on the run from the law
reforms for the woman he loves.

Yes, I realize that I have
just dangerously stereotyped

this Black man that
I know nothing about,

but let's see how this goes.

Lillian.

I know she's your sister,

but this behavior's
inappropriate.

She's turned the bullpen

into some kind of
New York hootenanny.

ADULT DEAN: Not a
thing. But point taken.

I'm so sorry.

I thought she was
gonna be more like you.

But now I'm afraid
I have to, uh,

make the tough
decision to let her go.

I understand, Mr. Davidson.

Good.

Let me know when you tell her.

??

??

Sorry you lost your
job, Aunt Jackie.

It's okay, baby.

Your mama let me down real easy.

I mean, she gave me so
many martinis last night

before she told me that
I didn't even realize

I was fired 'til this morning.

Do you have to go
back to Atlanta?

Yeah, I want to give
Keith another chance.

Especially since he
didn't send me to jail.

Now, that's true love. Mm.

Man, relationships are tough.

Mm, you are preaching
to the choir, son.

But, you know, sometimes maybe
people like you and me...

People who feel really deeply...

Maybe we just make things
a little more complicated

than they need to be.

You think I'm doing that?

Yeah.

Look, I get how exciting
"forbidden fruit" is.

But maybe you're better off
being honest with your friend.

Then you can have a real
relationship with that girl,

like you deserve.

Well, I am tired
of sneaking around.

Trust me, that gets
old real quick.

Like, one time, I
was dating this guy,

and he said he
wanted to be with me,

but, of course, we
only met at my house.

And God forbid I call his place.

So many rules.

ADULT DEAN: Clearly Aunt
Jackie was talking about

sleeping with a married guy.

But, again, it went
right over my head.

All I could think about
is that she was right.

Keisa and I needed to
tell Broderick the truth.

Thanks, Aunt Jackie.

I'm gonna miss talking to you.

Well, maybe next time,
talk to your mom.

I mean, she's had more
successful relationships

than I have.

And I'm talking about the
relationships before your dad.

ADULT DEAN: Oh, Jackie.

Hey...

I figured you might want this.

??

Mm.

??

- Hey.
- DEAN: Wait.

[sighs]

Before we do, you know,

kissing stuff, I have
to say something.

I can't keep sneaking
behind Broderick's back.

We have to tell him.

I just broke up with Broderick.

Seriously? Problem solved.

Pucker up!

And I'm breaking
up with you, too.

What?

I'm not ready for all
this relationship stuff.

It's too hard.

I don't want to be the reason
somebody's happy or sad.

I just want to be
me for a while.

But...

I'm sorry, Dean.

[dramatic music plays]

ADULT DEAN: Anybody know
what a stableboy does

when he's not kissing?

[cow moos]

Bill, I told you, you don't
have to drive me to the station.

I do if I want to
save $4 on cab fare.

[chuckles]

Again, I am sorry.

Lillian, stop apologizing.

I know your heart was
in the right place.

LILLIAN: No, it wasn't.

I always said to myself
that you would never change.

But then when you
actually tried to change,

turns out I'm the one
who couldn't change.

I always just
thought of you as...

Black-sheep Jackie?

The screw-up?

The train wreck?

Yes. But also, Jackie
the fun sister.

The popular sister.

The one everybody loves.

It hasn't been easy
growing up in your shadow.

Aww, I had a shadow?

Thank you.

Well, here's what we'll do.

You be more fun.

You know, unbutton that
blouse a few buttons

and let them things breathe.

And I promise I will
get my [bleep] together.

Well, you could start by
losing the cuss words.

Oh. There you go again, hiding
my light under a bushel.

Now, are you sure about Keith?

I don't want you wasting your
time with a man who cheats.

Well, to be fair,
I cheated first.

He just doesn't know.

But new leaf, here I come.

[both laugh]

All right, let's go.

Oh, Bill, I got paid for
my three days at the State,

so here's the $68
that I owe you.

Oh, I didn't think you'd...

Thank you.

Oh, wait. I need
$15 for the bus.

That's a $20.

What, I can't buy
myself a couple of beers

with my money that I earned?

Lillian, I do not know
how you put up with him.

I told you you should
have married Edgar.

Bill.

Come on. I don't
wanna be late.

Edgar? Who's Edgar?
