Oh.
21
00:01:17,177 --> 00:01:18,144
Here, Thelma.
22
00:01:18,178 --> 00:01:19,646
Okay.
23
00:01:19,679 --> 00:01:21,948
J.J, hang this
on the door for me, honey.
24
00:01:21,981 --> 00:01:24,351
Okay, Ma, but we better
put this under lock and key.
25
00:01:24,384 --> 00:01:25,518
Why?
26
00:01:25,552 --> 00:01:27,287
Because the way
things disappear around here,
27
00:01:27,320 --> 00:01:31,691
even Santa Claus
could be a rip-off artist.
28
00:01:31,725 --> 00:01:33,126
What else is missing?
29
00:01:33,159 --> 00:01:36,096
Just the main part
of a still life I was painting.
30
00:01:36,096 --> 00:01:38,465
Two onions
and two apples.
31
00:01:38,498 --> 00:01:41,701
J.J., didn't you
read my note?
32
00:01:41,735 --> 00:01:46,106
I owe you two onions
and two apples.
33
00:01:46,106 --> 00:01:49,642
Signed, The Mystery Mama.
34
00:01:49,676 --> 00:01:52,612
Well, Mystery Mama, what you
wanna rip-off my models for?
35
00:01:52,645 --> 00:01:54,848
For the turkey dressing.
36
00:01:54,881 --> 00:01:57,350
And wait till you
taste it.
37
00:01:59,019 --> 00:02:00,920
Where's your
cousin Naomi?
38
00:02:00,954 --> 00:02:02,756
In the bathroom,
as usual.
39
00:02:02,789 --> 00:02:06,326
Yeah, she spends more time
in there than the Tidy Bowl man.
40
00:02:11,231 --> 00:02:13,566
Now, look, children,
41
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,669
it's been three years
since your cousin Naomi,
42
00:02:15,702 --> 00:02:17,203
your Uncle Oscar
and your Aunt Millie
43
00:02:17,237 --> 00:02:19,773
have been down here
to see us from Fayetteville.
44
00:02:19,806 --> 00:02:22,809
And, Thelma, honey,
I want you and Naomi
45
00:02:22,842 --> 00:02:26,279
to try to get
along better.
46
00:02:26,312 --> 00:02:29,215
You're about the same age.
You should have a lot in common.
47
00:02:29,249 --> 00:02:32,419
Ma, I try to be nice,
but she's strange.
48
00:02:32,452 --> 00:02:33,920
What you mean?
49
00:02:33,953 --> 00:02:36,656
I mean, like, she laughs
a lot at almost anything.
50
00:02:36,690 --> 00:02:38,958
Thelma, what's wrong
with a good sense of humor?
51
00:02:38,992 --> 00:02:42,796
Yeah, Ma, but she laughs
at the shower curtains.
52
00:02:43,963 --> 00:02:45,265
Well, I don't care.
53
00:02:45,298 --> 00:02:48,601
I think it's just wonderful
to have kin visiting us.
54
00:02:48,635 --> 00:02:52,672
Naomi, is there anything else
you need, honey?
55
00:02:52,706 --> 00:02:58,111
No, Aunt Florida, I'm just fine.
I'm soaking in the tub.
56
00:02:58,111 --> 00:02:59,579
That's good.
57
00:03:02,549 --> 00:03:05,418
There's some things about
Christmas I sure don't like.
58
00:03:05,452 --> 00:03:08,054
Oh, what's
wrong now, Michael?
59
00:03:08,054 --> 00:03:10,790
You know that ugly Charlotte
McDaniel on the first floor?
60
00:03:10,824 --> 00:03:13,193
Well, I was walking by, and
she opened the door and said,
61
00:03:13,226 --> 00:03:16,329
"Michael, can I talk
to you for a minute?"
62
00:03:16,363 --> 00:03:18,765
So I went over there,
and before I could do anything,
63
00:03:18,798 --> 00:03:20,700
she pointed to the mistletoe
over the door
64
00:03:20,734 --> 00:03:23,303
and kissed me right
dead on the mouth.
65
00:03:25,171 --> 00:03:27,941
Yuck.
66
00:03:27,974 --> 00:03:31,478
Well, Michael, you always said
you believed in black unity.
67
00:03:31,511 --> 00:03:33,947
Here was a chance
for you to join in.
68
00:03:33,980 --> 00:03:37,117
Mama, she had lipstick on,
and I hate lipstick.
69
00:03:37,150 --> 00:03:41,955
She make me sick
with her old ugly self.
70
00:03:41,988 --> 00:03:43,323
I hate lipstick too.
71
00:03:43,356 --> 00:03:47,360
When I kiss a female,
all I wanna taste is female.
72
00:03:53,700 --> 00:03:55,402
Hey, Daddy,
you look neat.
73
00:03:55,435 --> 00:03:58,705
Yeah, I am as clean
as a chitlin.
74
00:04:00,473 --> 00:04:01,775
Real handsome, Daddy.
75
00:04:01,808 --> 00:04:02,809
Oh, thank you.
76
00:04:02,842 --> 00:04:04,411
Boy, you look sharper
than a wax dummy
77
00:04:04,444 --> 00:04:07,380
at Marshall Field's
department store.
78
00:04:07,414 --> 00:04:10,316
Now, Junior, you sure got
a way with words.
79
00:04:10,350 --> 00:04:11,584
Where you going, Daddy?
80
00:04:11,618 --> 00:04:13,053
Oh, they're having
a little Christmas jam
81
00:04:13,053 --> 00:04:14,120
down at the car wash.
82
00:04:14,154 --> 00:04:15,388
Oh, that's nice.
83
00:04:15,422 --> 00:04:17,957
Boy, what a great place
to have a party.
84
00:04:18,058 --> 00:04:19,926
You can get washed, dried,
spray-waxed
85
00:04:19,959 --> 00:04:24,364
and bombed all
at the same time.
86
00:04:25,699 --> 00:04:27,701
Baby, you sure
you don't want to come along?
87
00:04:27,734 --> 00:04:30,470
Oh, honey, I wish I could, but
I got a turkey dinner to fix.
88
00:04:30,503 --> 00:04:31,805
It's gonna be
nine of us.
89
00:04:31,838 --> 00:04:34,074
Yeah. Well, look, I ain't gonna
be down there that long,
90
00:04:34,074 --> 00:04:35,475
just grab
my bonus and split.
91
00:04:35,508 --> 00:04:37,410
I just hope it's something
decent this year.
92
00:04:37,444 --> 00:04:39,212
Oh, I'm sure
it will be.
93
00:04:39,245 --> 00:04:42,082
Yeah, well, you remember
that jive job I had last year.
94
00:04:42,082 --> 00:04:44,117
The boss promised me something
extra in my Christmas envelope,
95
00:04:44,150 --> 00:04:48,355
I got it too.
A note saying, "You're fired."
96
00:04:48,388 --> 00:04:49,756
I'll bet this Christmas
gonna be different.
97
00:04:49,789 --> 00:04:51,925
This one's
gonna be great.
98
00:04:51,958 --> 00:04:54,861
We got a lot of food
on the table.
99
00:04:54,894 --> 00:04:58,098
We all got our health, and
we got family visiting with us.
100
00:04:58,131 --> 00:04:59,666
Florida, I almost forgot.
What?
101
00:04:59,699 --> 00:05:01,668
I got to get downtown and meet
Oscar and Millie.
102
00:05:01,701 --> 00:05:04,104
I promised to show them some
of the sights of Chicago.
103
00:05:04,137 --> 00:05:05,238
Bye.
See you later, baby.
104
00:05:05,271 --> 00:05:06,706
Okay, love.
105
00:05:06,740 --> 00:05:08,908
Daddy, if Naomi's folks are
interested in some weird sights,
106
00:05:08,942 --> 00:05:12,779
we could start right here
and give them a tour of J.J.
107
00:05:12,812 --> 00:05:15,181
Hey, now,
look who's talking.
108
00:05:15,215 --> 00:05:16,182
The girl who
celebrates Christmas
109
00:05:16,216 --> 00:05:18,852
by looking like Halloween.
110
00:05:18,885 --> 00:05:20,553
Don't hit me.
Come on.
111
00:05:20,587 --> 00:05:21,755
I'd like to stick
around here
112
00:05:21,788 --> 00:05:22,856
and watch the holiday
festivities,
113
00:05:22,889 --> 00:05:24,691
but I got to get moving.
See you all later.
114
00:05:24,724 --> 00:05:26,059
See you, Dad.
115
00:05:26,059 --> 00:05:27,560
Say, where's Naomi?
She's in the bathroom.
116
00:05:27,594 --> 00:05:28,895
That girl's
in the bathroom again?
117
00:05:28,928 --> 00:05:32,065
Damn, she likes to stay clean,
don't she?
118
00:05:32,065 --> 00:05:34,334
I know what to get her
for a Christmas present now.
119
00:05:34,367 --> 00:05:38,638
A bunch of free passes
to the car wash.
120
00:05:38,672 --> 00:05:40,073
Now wait a minute.
121
00:05:40,106 --> 00:05:42,976
I don't like your making fun
of my side of the family.
122
00:05:43,076 --> 00:05:46,179
When did I ever laugh
at your side of the family?
123
00:05:46,212 --> 00:05:48,181
By the way, did we get
a card this year
124
00:05:48,214 --> 00:05:51,484
from that bowlegged
cousin of yours?
125
00:05:51,518 --> 00:05:52,686
The one with
the nappy toupee
126
00:05:52,719 --> 00:05:54,087
that keeps blowing off
in the wind.
127
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,422
James!
128
00:05:56,890 --> 00:05:58,992
Just jiving, baby,
just jiving.
129
00:05:59,092 --> 00:06:00,193
See you all later.
130
00:06:00,226 --> 00:06:01,361
Okay.
131
00:06:01,394 --> 00:06:03,797
And, Florida,
don't burn the bird.
132
00:06:03,830 --> 00:06:05,465
Oh, go on.
133
00:06:05,498 --> 00:06:06,599
Mama.
Yes, honey?
134
00:06:06,633 --> 00:06:08,201
Is Naomi gonna get
out of there soon?
135
00:06:08,234 --> 00:06:11,137
I gotta use
the necessity room.
136
00:06:11,171 --> 00:06:12,939
She'll be out
in a few minutes, honey.
137
00:06:13,039 --> 00:06:15,742
In a few minutes?
Oh, Lord.
138
00:06:15,775 --> 00:06:19,846
Look, children,
your cousin Naomi is shy.
139
00:06:19,879 --> 00:06:22,382
She's just a little
country girl, remember.
140
00:06:22,415 --> 00:06:25,952
You know, J.J., you could help
her out with that shyness.
141
00:06:26,052 --> 00:06:28,221
Why don't you take her
out once and a while.
142
00:06:28,254 --> 00:06:32,525
Ma, you wanna ruin
my reputation?
143
00:06:32,559 --> 00:06:34,461
What reputation?
144
00:06:34,494 --> 00:06:35,829
I'll have you know,
145
00:06:35,862 --> 00:06:39,799
you're looking at the Casanova
of the Windy City.
146
00:06:41,434 --> 00:06:44,137
Speaking of windy--
147
00:06:47,073 --> 00:06:49,676
Oh, dear.
See who that is, J.J., please.
148
00:06:49,709 --> 00:06:51,578
Okay, Ma.
149
00:06:52,645 --> 00:06:53,613
Hi, y'all.
150
00:06:53,646 --> 00:06:55,148
Hey, Willona.
151
00:06:55,181 --> 00:06:58,518
Hey, now, season's greetingsFrom the family and me
152
00:06:58,551 --> 00:07:01,855
If you ain't a partridgeGet out of the pear tree
153
00:07:01,888 --> 00:07:05,025
God bless you too,
Skinny Tim.
154
00:07:06,259 --> 00:07:07,427
Here's some decorations
for the tree.
155
00:07:07,460 --> 00:07:09,062
Oh, thanks.
Catch, J.J.
156
00:07:09,095 --> 00:07:10,430
Right on.
157
00:07:10,463 --> 00:07:13,166
Oh, Florida,
tree looks beautiful.
158
00:07:13,199 --> 00:07:14,467
Thank you, Willona.
159
00:07:14,501 --> 00:07:15,869
How'd you do down
at the boutique?
160
00:07:15,902 --> 00:07:17,570
Did you get a nice bonus?
161
00:07:17,604 --> 00:07:19,673
Girl, let me
tell you about this.
162
00:07:19,706 --> 00:07:21,875
The boss called the whole staff
around and said,
163
00:07:21,908 --> 00:07:24,310
"Well, as you all know,
this year has not been
164
00:07:24,344 --> 00:07:26,946
"the best economically
for the country.
165
00:07:27,047 --> 00:07:28,815
"Or for the boutique.
166
00:07:28,848 --> 00:07:31,685
"But however, in keeping
with the spirit of the season,
167
00:07:31,718 --> 00:07:36,089
there is something
for each and every one of you."
168
00:07:37,490 --> 00:07:39,492
So we all cracked up and said,
"Right, right on."
169
00:07:39,526 --> 00:07:41,094
And you know what she gave us?
What?
170
00:07:41,127 --> 00:07:45,231
A sequined W.I.N. button.
171
00:07:45,265 --> 00:07:48,935
W.I.N.? Hey, Willona, that
stands for "Whip Inflation Now."
172
00:07:48,968 --> 00:07:53,206
Wrong. Around here,
it stands for "We In Need."
173
00:07:54,341 --> 00:07:56,276
And where's Naomi?
174
00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:57,277
She's in there again?
175
00:07:57,310 --> 00:07:58,478
Still.
176
00:07:58,511 --> 00:08:00,447
She's having
a great time in Chicago.
177
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,816
All she's seen
so far are the plumbings.
178
00:08:04,284 --> 00:08:05,318
Shh.
179
00:08:05,352 --> 00:08:06,753
"Shh" what?
180
00:08:06,786 --> 00:08:10,657
I think Miss Clean's
about to make her debut.
181
00:08:10,690 --> 00:08:13,226
There goes the chair
from underneath the door,
182
00:08:13,259 --> 00:08:16,096
and here come Miss Clean!
183
00:08:16,129 --> 00:08:17,497
Oh, J.J., you cut that out.
184
00:08:17,530 --> 00:08:19,466
Now, you know there's no chair
in the bathroom.
185
00:08:19,499 --> 00:08:23,470
Well, I see
you're all gathered together.
186
00:08:23,503 --> 00:08:25,538
Hi, Naomi.
187
00:08:25,572 --> 00:08:27,040
Hi, Willona.
188
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:28,708
I just love hot baths.
189
00:08:28,742 --> 00:08:31,211
Steam really
makes the skin smooth.
190
00:08:31,244 --> 00:08:34,047
But it sure wrinkles
the wallpaper.
191
00:08:37,050 --> 00:08:40,353
Oh, J.J., you're funny.
192
00:08:40,387 --> 00:08:42,822
Isn't he funny,
Aunt Florida?
193
00:08:42,856 --> 00:08:46,960
Well, we never considered him
a threat to Redd Foxx.
194
00:08:49,462 --> 00:08:53,199
You're funny too.
Now I see where he gets it from.
195
00:08:53,233 --> 00:08:56,202
Naomi, can I go
in there now, please?
196
00:08:56,236 --> 00:08:57,837
Sure, Michael.
Thanks.
197
00:08:57,871 --> 00:09:00,473
Oh, Michael, let me make sure
I didn't forget anything.
198
00:09:00,507 --> 00:09:07,681
Dry skin cream, wet skin cream,
dry skin cream remover,
199
00:09:07,714 --> 00:09:10,450
wet skin cream remover,
200
00:09:10,483 --> 00:09:15,121
dry and wet skin cream remover
and neutralizer.
201
00:09:15,155 --> 00:09:16,589
I wish you had something
202
00:09:16,623 --> 00:09:19,125
that would remove you
from that bathroom.
203
00:09:19,159 --> 00:09:21,061
If I run across
any empties,
204
00:09:21,094 --> 00:09:23,129
I'll bring them back
for a deposit.
205
00:09:23,163 --> 00:09:25,765
Oh, Michael,
I did forget something.
206
00:09:25,799 --> 00:09:27,467
Oh, Naomi.
Oh, excuse me.
207
00:09:36,209 --> 00:09:39,079
I think Michael's time
is running out.
208
00:09:43,883 --> 00:09:45,652
J.J., why don't you
take your cousin Naomi
209
00:09:45,685 --> 00:09:47,053
to meet some of your friends,
210
00:09:47,053 --> 00:09:50,323
now that she's all freshened up
from her steam bath.
211
00:10:00,233 --> 00:10:02,869
Ma, I can't take Naomi
out in this cold air,
212
00:10:02,902 --> 00:10:05,038
with her pores all wide open.
213
00:10:05,071 --> 00:10:07,207
The hawk will whistle
through her body so hard
214
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,110
it'll be playing "Dixie."
215
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,017
There. That takes
care of everything.
216
00:10:17,050 --> 00:10:20,820
Say, I got some last-minute
shopping to do.
217
00:10:20,854 --> 00:10:23,089
Look, I won't be long,
sweetheart.
218
00:10:23,123 --> 00:10:24,591
Oh, that's okay,
Aunt Florida.
219
00:10:24,624 --> 00:10:26,292
Willona, why don't you
come go with me.
220
00:10:26,326 --> 00:10:28,094
Oh, great, because
I gotta get some more parsley
221
00:10:28,128 --> 00:10:30,263
and some more okra
to finish what I got to do.
222
00:10:30,296 --> 00:10:31,931
Finish what?
223
00:10:31,965 --> 00:10:34,401
Stuffing the ham
I'm cooking.
224
00:10:35,835 --> 00:10:37,170
I'll be outside.
Okay, Willona.
225
00:10:37,203 --> 00:10:39,272
Hey, Ma,
where you going?
226
00:10:39,305 --> 00:10:40,807
To the market.
227
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,275
If you're going
to be carrying groceries
228
00:10:42,308 --> 00:10:43,376
through this neighborhood,
229
00:10:43,410 --> 00:10:45,478
you'll need me along
to ride shotgun.
230
00:10:46,546 --> 00:10:47,480
Come on.
231
00:10:48,548 --> 00:10:50,316
Hey, Ma.
What?
232
00:10:50,350 --> 00:10:51,918
I know it's the season
to be jolly,
233
00:10:51,951 --> 00:10:54,587
but somebody done
ripped off our holly.
234
00:10:56,656 --> 00:10:57,824
Come on, baby.
235
00:11:20,747 --> 00:11:22,949
Naomi.
236
00:11:22,982 --> 00:11:25,085
Another beauty treatment, Naomi?
237
00:11:25,118 --> 00:11:28,521
Thelma, I was just having
a glass of water.
238
00:11:28,555 --> 00:11:30,990
It's really good
for the system, you know.
239
00:11:31,091 --> 00:11:40,333
I know the water in Chicago
has a lot of things in it.
240
00:11:40,367 --> 00:11:43,737
But I never knew
it was 80 proof.
241
00:11:50,944 --> 00:11:52,112
Flo, you got
this place looking
242
00:11:52,145 --> 00:11:54,681
like the main dining room
at the Plum Plaza.
243
00:11:54,714 --> 00:11:56,449
Two tables, no waiting, hey.
244
00:11:56,483 --> 00:11:59,386
Well, if it wasn't
for your tables and chairs
245
00:11:59,419 --> 00:12:01,187
we would have
to make two settings,
246
00:12:01,221 --> 00:12:03,056
or else put five
at the table
247
00:12:03,056 --> 00:12:05,158
three on the couch
and one on the floor.
248
00:12:05,191 --> 00:12:09,462
It's sure is a lot
of extra work on you, Ma.
249
00:12:09,496 --> 00:12:11,498
Oh, I don't mind, honey.
250
00:12:11,531 --> 00:12:15,335
I'm just so happy to have
kinfolks at Christmastime.
251
00:12:15,368 --> 00:12:18,838
It sure puts me
into the holiday spirits.
252
00:12:18,872 --> 00:12:23,643
I know someone who's really
into the holiday spirits.
253
00:12:23,677 --> 00:12:27,080
Hey, baby,
you better set another place.
254
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:28,882
Oh, you invited somebody else?
255
00:12:28,915 --> 00:12:32,652
Yeah, set a seat
for Mr. Jack Daniel's.
256
00:12:35,088 --> 00:12:38,825
Oh, Uncle James,
that's so funny.
257
00:12:40,326 --> 00:12:44,330
"Set a place
for Mr. Jack Daniel's."
258
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:48,868
Daddy, did you
get a bonus?
259
00:12:48,902 --> 00:12:50,603
Didn't I?
Can I get a...?
260
00:12:50,637 --> 00:12:51,771
Hey, hey.
261
00:12:51,805 --> 00:12:53,273
Hold this, Willona.
Okay.
262
00:12:53,306 --> 00:12:54,974
Here, baby, open this.
263
00:12:58,545 --> 00:13:02,882
Twenty-five dollars!
Oh, James that's wonderful!
264
00:13:02,916 --> 00:13:08,288
That sure beats
a W.I.N. button!
265
00:13:08,321 --> 00:13:10,790
Mama, I'm going into your room
gift wrap some more presents.
266
00:13:10,824 --> 00:13:13,326
And I don't want no more
peeking, okay?
267
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:18,131
Okay, baby boy.
All right, no more peeking.
268
00:13:18,164 --> 00:13:20,934
Speaking of peeking,
I've been peeking at this bird.
269
00:13:20,967 --> 00:13:22,402
Where'd you get it,
Weight Watchers?
270
00:13:26,940 --> 00:13:30,877
Well, it weighed 12 pounds
before it was plucked.
271
00:13:30,910 --> 00:13:33,680
Plucked, it looked
more like it was mugged.
272
00:13:33,713 --> 00:13:37,751
Say, Naomi, your folks say
that they was going to stop over
273
00:13:37,784 --> 00:13:39,686
to see some old friends
on the Southside,
274
00:13:39,719 --> 00:13:41,855
so they'd be
here shortly, hear?
275
00:13:41,888 --> 00:13:44,624
Well, in that case, I'd better
put some more makeup on.
276
00:13:45,859 --> 00:13:46,960
Hey, James,
if you're pouring,
277
00:13:46,993 --> 00:13:48,294
I'll join
your little holiday toast.
278
00:13:48,328 --> 00:13:49,696
No, no. James,
don't open this one.
279
00:13:49,729 --> 00:13:50,864
We got one open
back here.
280
00:13:50,897 --> 00:13:51,898
All right.
281
00:13:51,931 --> 00:13:53,299
I'll get the glasses all
together here.
282
00:13:53,333 --> 00:13:54,734
Yes.
I'll do the pouring.
283
00:13:54,768 --> 00:13:57,137
Okay.
Start it off right.
284
00:13:57,170 --> 00:13:58,371
That's good.
For you.
285
00:13:58,405 --> 00:14:01,307
And for you.
286
00:14:01,341 --> 00:14:02,575
I'll have a little
water with mine.
287
00:14:02,609 --> 00:14:03,843
Let me have some
water too, please.
288
00:14:03,877 --> 00:14:04,844
Hey, Flo, how about you?
289
00:14:04,878 --> 00:14:06,513
Oh, you know
I don't drink.
290
00:14:06,546 --> 00:14:08,214
Come on, Flo.
It's the Christmas holiday.
291
00:14:08,248 --> 00:14:09,783
A little taste
won't hurt you.
292
00:14:09,816 --> 00:14:11,785
Come on.
Just a little one.
293
00:14:11,818 --> 00:14:13,787
Well....
294
00:14:15,588 --> 00:14:16,523
Ooh!
295
00:14:18,825 --> 00:14:21,461
Florida, that ain't enough
to baptize a gnat.
296
00:14:28,134 --> 00:14:31,504
Flo, James, here's
to a wonderful holiday.
297
00:14:31,538 --> 00:14:33,673
I'll drink to that.
Cheers!
298
00:14:33,707 --> 00:14:35,975
Why does there have to be
so much drinking around here?
299
00:14:36,076 --> 00:14:38,611
I don't know what
you're talking about.
300
00:14:38,645 --> 00:14:39,913
There's not much
drinking around here.
301
00:14:39,946 --> 00:14:41,715
Yeah, baby, I mean,
that last bottle of bourbon
302
00:14:41,748 --> 00:14:44,617
we had lasted from your birthday
to Michael's birthday.
303
00:14:44,651 --> 00:14:46,152
Now, that was almost 10 months.
304
00:14:46,186 --> 00:14:48,621
I'll drink to that.
305
00:14:48,655 --> 00:14:50,123
See? See what I mean?
306
00:14:50,156 --> 00:14:51,725
"I'll drink to this,"
"I'll drink to that."
307
00:14:51,758 --> 00:14:53,093
Any excuse.
308
00:14:53,093 --> 00:14:54,761
I'll drink to that!
309
00:14:58,098 --> 00:15:00,033
Willona, that's not funny.
310
00:15:00,033 --> 00:15:02,302
Thelma, what's the matter?
311
00:15:02,335 --> 00:15:07,040
I'll be with Michael
if you want me.
312
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,042
That's not like Thelma.
I'm going to talk to her.
313
00:15:09,042 --> 00:15:11,277
Baby, you know kids, they're
just like yo-yos, up and down.
314
00:15:11,311 --> 00:15:14,414
Now, just sit down and enjoy
yourself here. Come on.
315
00:15:14,447 --> 00:15:17,217
Maybe you're right.
316
00:15:17,250 --> 00:15:18,351
Now, where were we?
317
00:15:18,385 --> 00:15:20,520
"I'll drink to that."
318
00:15:24,124 --> 00:15:26,659
Yeah, that was good.
Now, where's the whiskey?
319
00:15:28,228 --> 00:15:30,597
That smells
like Chicago water.
320
00:15:30,630 --> 00:15:33,900
Tastes like Chicago water.
321
00:15:33,933 --> 00:15:37,537
Well, Chicago water got
everything in it except whiskey.
322
00:15:37,570 --> 00:15:40,073
This smells
like water too.
323
00:15:40,073 --> 00:15:43,376
Now, somebody's been
emptying these bottles.
324
00:15:43,410 --> 00:15:47,547
Now, who the hell would do
something like that?
325
00:15:47,580 --> 00:15:51,451
Who would use a glass and put it
back up here without washing it?
326
00:15:53,119 --> 00:15:57,223
James. Smell that.
327
00:15:57,257 --> 00:15:58,958
That's booze.
328
00:15:58,992 --> 00:16:01,027
And that's J.J.'s glass.
329
00:16:01,061 --> 00:16:03,329
Yeah, but baby, you know
Junior don't drink no booze.
330
00:16:03,363 --> 00:16:05,832
Nobody in this family does.
331
00:16:05,865 --> 00:16:08,535
Well, it shouldn't be too hard
to find out who's been boozing.
332
00:16:08,568 --> 00:16:09,636
I was reading an article
333
00:16:09,669 --> 00:16:11,805
that listed the warning signs
of an alcoholic.
334
00:16:11,838 --> 00:16:15,241
The things to look out
for are forgetful, defensive,
335
00:16:15,275 --> 00:16:19,546
uncoordinated and exaggerated
sense of one's own importance.
336
00:16:19,579 --> 00:16:22,282
Exaggerated sense
of one's own importance?
337
00:16:22,315 --> 00:16:23,350
Yep.
338
00:16:23,383 --> 00:16:25,218
That couldn't be anybody
in this family.
339
00:16:25,251 --> 00:16:26,219
That's what the book said.
340
00:16:26,252 --> 00:16:30,323
Ahh!
341
00:16:30,357 --> 00:16:32,659
The holiday seasonhas just begun
342
00:16:32,692 --> 00:16:35,228
And here he isyour favorite son
343
00:16:35,261 --> 00:16:40,066
Kid Dy-no-mite!
344
00:16:46,239 --> 00:16:49,075
An exaggerated sense
of one's own importance.
345
00:16:49,075 --> 00:16:51,244
Now, cut that out.
J.J., where you been?
346
00:16:51,277 --> 00:16:54,748
I don't know, Ma.
Just kind of out messing around.
347
00:16:54,781 --> 00:16:57,083
Forgetful.
Stop it, you two.
348
00:16:57,083 --> 00:17:00,186
J.J., honey, why can't you tell
Mama exactly where you been?
349
00:17:00,220 --> 00:17:02,722
Hey, how come everybody's
picking on me?
350
00:17:02,756 --> 00:17:04,190
Defensive.
351
00:17:04,224 --> 00:17:07,360
What the hell you got
to be so defensive about?
352
00:17:08,495 --> 00:17:10,597
Who me?
J.J.!
353
00:17:11,731 --> 00:17:12,866
Uncoordinated.
354
00:17:12,899 --> 00:17:14,668
Oh, you two, stop that.
355
00:17:16,503 --> 00:17:19,039
Junior,
come over here.
356
00:17:23,877 --> 00:17:26,780
Now that's a weird walk
if I ever seen one.
357
00:17:26,813 --> 00:17:29,149
Now James, your son's been
walking like that
358
00:17:29,182 --> 00:17:31,751
ever since he took
his first step.
359
00:17:31,785 --> 00:17:36,589
Junior,
you been drinking?
360
00:17:36,623 --> 00:17:38,558
Oh, wow.
How did y'all guess?
361
00:17:38,591 --> 00:17:40,293
Oh, no.
362
00:17:40,326 --> 00:17:44,564
Well, it was Christmas so
I got a jug and Lester got a jug
363
00:17:44,597 --> 00:17:49,202
and mixed my red Kool-aid
with his green Kool-aid.
364
00:17:51,204 --> 00:17:54,107
Merry Christmas!
365
00:17:55,875 --> 00:17:58,578
[INDISTINGUISHABLE GREETINGS]
366
00:17:58,611 --> 00:18:00,780
Oh, James!
367
00:18:01,881 --> 00:18:03,183
Florida, honey,
368
00:18:03,216 --> 00:18:05,018
you shouldn't leave the door
unlocked like that.
369
00:18:05,018 --> 00:18:07,287
Hungry Rogers could come in.
370
00:18:09,122 --> 00:18:13,727
Hey, Oscar, Millie, you remember
my good friend, Willona.
371
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,730
Hi!
Nice to see you again.
372
00:18:20,934 --> 00:18:23,837
Out of all the family and
relatives we've been visiting,
373
00:18:23,870 --> 00:18:26,106
we feel most
at home with you.
374
00:18:26,139 --> 00:18:28,108
Yeah, maybe that because
everybody else
375
00:18:28,141 --> 00:18:30,944
tells us to go back
to our own home.
376
00:18:31,044 --> 00:18:33,880
It might have something
to do with your appetite, Oscar.
377
00:18:33,913 --> 00:18:36,549
We picked up a little something
to help out the dinner.
378
00:18:36,583 --> 00:18:37,550
All right.
379
00:18:37,584 --> 00:18:39,052
Let's get this
holiday under way.
380
00:18:39,052 --> 00:18:43,323
Neither me or the turkey are
gonna can make it on one wing.
381
00:18:43,356 --> 00:18:46,926
Now, Oscar, you know the doctor
warned you not to drink so much.
382
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,561
Oh, who worries about doctors?
383
00:18:48,595 --> 00:18:52,499
I know a lot of old drunks
but no old doctors.
384
00:18:53,633 --> 00:18:58,638
And a lot
of old jokes too.
385
00:19:03,343 --> 00:19:06,146
Naomi, you better cool it.
Your folks are here.
386
00:19:06,179 --> 00:19:09,816
Why you always go around
sneaking up on people?
387
00:19:09,849 --> 00:19:12,519
You're so busy
sneaking into bottles,
388
00:19:12,552 --> 00:19:15,588
you wouldn't know if the Chicago
Bears stampeded through here.
389
00:19:15,622 --> 00:19:17,290
Oh, don't be square.
390
00:19:17,323 --> 00:19:19,726
I'm only getting
into the holiday spirit.
391
00:19:19,759 --> 00:19:21,327
With you,
every day's a holiday.
392
00:19:21,361 --> 00:19:24,531
I don't like waiting
till the last minute.
393
00:19:24,564 --> 00:19:27,367
Naomi, do you know
what you're doing?
394
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,669
"Naomi, do you know
what you're doing?"
395
00:19:29,703 --> 00:19:31,571
Of course I know
what I'm doing.
396
00:19:31,604 --> 00:19:33,606
I'm having fun.
397
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,675
Well, I've seen plenty
of that kind of fun.
398
00:19:35,709 --> 00:19:38,545
A 16-year-old boy drove
his father's car
399
00:19:38,578 --> 00:19:39,779
off a bridge
just for fun.
400
00:19:39,813 --> 00:19:41,881
A girl was babysitting
and she almost
401
00:19:41,915 --> 00:19:43,450
drowned the baby
in the bath tub.
402
00:19:43,483 --> 00:19:45,051
Now how's that
for fun?
403
00:19:45,051 --> 00:19:46,519
A drunken kid tried
to fly off
404
00:19:46,553 --> 00:19:48,755
one of the roofs
like one of his pigeons.
405
00:19:48,788 --> 00:19:53,259
And all this fun happened right
here in this neighborhood.
406
00:19:53,293 --> 00:19:54,761
What have you
got to laugh about?
407
00:19:54,794 --> 00:19:57,764
I don't live
in this neighborhood.
408
00:20:00,467 --> 00:20:01,835
Oh, you don't?
409
00:20:01,868 --> 00:20:04,371
Well, there are half a million
kids living in the bottle
410
00:20:04,404 --> 00:20:06,006
and you live
in that neighborhood.
411
00:20:06,039 --> 00:20:07,307
Half a million?
412
00:20:07,340 --> 00:20:12,812
Well, that's just fine
because I hate to drink alone.
413
00:20:14,781 --> 00:20:17,083
What's the matter
with feeling good?
414
00:20:17,117 --> 00:20:19,686
You don't feel good.
You're an alkie--
415
00:20:19,719 --> 00:20:22,522
Now wait a minute.
I am not an alkie.
416
00:20:22,555 --> 00:20:24,290
That's what you think.
417
00:20:24,324 --> 00:20:27,060
Alcohol is the number one
teenage drug problem
418
00:20:27,093 --> 00:20:28,495
in the country today.
419
00:20:28,528 --> 00:20:30,964
Naomi, you need help.
420
00:20:30,997 --> 00:20:34,934
Don't worry, sugar.
I can handle it.
421
00:20:34,968 --> 00:20:36,736
Sure you can.
422
00:20:36,770 --> 00:20:40,540
Well, go on.
Fink on me to the family.
423
00:20:40,573 --> 00:20:42,876
Goodie two-shoes.
424
00:20:43,943 --> 00:20:46,212
Well, what are you
waiting for?
425
00:20:46,246 --> 00:20:49,949
For you to say the one thing
that proves you're hooked.
426
00:20:49,983 --> 00:20:52,719
And what's that?
427
00:20:52,752 --> 00:20:55,088
That you can quit
any time you want to.
428
00:20:55,121 --> 00:21:00,160
Well, that's right. I can.
I can quit any time I want to.
429
00:21:05,632 --> 00:21:07,400
Everyone's waiting
for you.
430
00:21:07,434 --> 00:21:13,073
Well, in that case,
one for the road.
431
00:21:15,975 --> 00:21:20,613
Well, honey, so far I've seen
more folks from home
432
00:21:20,647 --> 00:21:22,449
than I have when we
was in Fayetteville!
433
00:21:22,482 --> 00:21:23,983
That's because they all up here!
434
00:21:24,084 --> 00:21:25,118
Hi, Aunt Millie.
435
00:21:25,151 --> 00:21:26,186
Hey, baby.
436
00:21:26,219 --> 00:21:27,987
Lay it on me.
Give your daddy a kiss.
437
00:21:28,088 --> 00:21:29,756
Daddy!
438
00:21:29,789 --> 00:21:32,892
Don't forget your mother.
439
00:21:32,926 --> 00:21:35,795
Merry Christmas,
everybody!
440
00:21:38,498 --> 00:21:41,101
Well, isn't somebody gonna say
something appropriate
441
00:21:41,134 --> 00:21:42,135
for the occasion?
442
00:21:42,168 --> 00:21:44,270
Yeah, let's eat!
443
00:21:46,373 --> 00:21:49,275
First thing's first, J.J.
And take off your hat.
444
00:21:49,309 --> 00:21:52,645
You all know every Christmas
before the dinner,
445
00:21:52,679 --> 00:21:55,148
Florida usually
gives us a little speech,
446
00:21:55,181 --> 00:21:56,950
like, and prayer--
447
00:21:56,983 --> 00:21:59,753
Come on, come on!
448
00:21:59,786 --> 00:22:02,655
Well, it goes like this.
449
00:22:02,689 --> 00:22:04,190
We're gathered together--
450
00:22:04,224 --> 00:22:05,392
Yeah, that's it,
that's it.
451
00:22:05,425 --> 00:22:08,128
And then she finishes up
with this beautiful prayer.
452
00:22:08,161 --> 00:22:10,263
How the prayer go, baby?
453
00:22:10,296 --> 00:22:12,665
We thank you for this feast--
Feast.
454
00:22:12,699 --> 00:22:15,068
But let us not forget
those who are hungry.
455
00:22:15,068 --> 00:22:17,270
We thank you for our health,
456
00:22:17,303 --> 00:22:19,105
but let us not forget
those who are ill.
457
00:22:19,139 --> 00:22:20,840
We thank you
for our friends,
458
00:22:20,874 --> 00:22:23,109
but let us not forget
those who are lonely.
459
00:22:23,143 --> 00:22:25,478
And let us not forget
our blessings
460
00:22:25,512 --> 00:22:27,614
so they can be
shared by all.
461
00:22:27,647 --> 00:22:30,583
Now come on, baby.
Do it, do it.
462
00:22:30,617 --> 00:22:32,318
There's nothing
to say but amen.
463
00:22:32,352 --> 00:22:34,821
Well, you did
that great, Flo.
464
00:22:38,792 --> 00:22:40,927
I'd like to propose a toast.
I'll drink to that.
465
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,330
But first, everybody's glass
get a little taste of the grape.
466
00:22:44,364 --> 00:22:46,299
First, the youngest. Michael?
Oh, no, no no.
467
00:22:46,332 --> 00:22:48,268
No. Michael is too young.
He don't drink.
468
00:22:48,301 --> 00:22:49,469
Oh, don't be silly Flo.
469
00:22:49,502 --> 00:22:51,705
You want him to grow up
to be a man, don't you?
470
00:22:51,738 --> 00:22:53,740
Michael will have milk.
471
00:22:53,773 --> 00:22:56,309
Oscar, our kids
don't drink no liquor.
472
00:22:56,343 --> 00:22:58,712
Oh, come on. A little wine
never hurt anybody.
473
00:22:58,745 --> 00:23:02,682
Naomi's been drinking wine since
she was four years old.
474
00:23:02,716 --> 00:23:05,485
She drinks champagne
on our anniversary.
475
00:23:05,518 --> 00:23:07,620
Brandy at New Year's.
476
00:23:07,654 --> 00:23:09,055
And don't forget,
Daddy.
477
00:23:09,055 --> 00:23:12,592
Don't forget one more thing
that I drink.
478
00:23:12,625 --> 00:23:19,399
On Sammy Davis's birthday,
it's man, oh, Manishewitz.
479
00:23:20,967 --> 00:23:22,402
Naomi!
480
00:23:22,435 --> 00:23:24,337
What happened?
481
00:23:24,371 --> 00:23:28,174
Naomi's tossed, she's smashed.
Thelma, come on.
482
00:23:28,208 --> 00:23:29,376
She's drunk, mom.
483
00:23:29,409 --> 00:23:30,377
Drunk?
484
00:23:30,410 --> 00:23:31,978
Did you hear that, Oscar?
485
00:23:32,078 --> 00:23:34,481
Hey, I know
you won't believe this,
486
00:23:34,514 --> 00:23:41,421
but for a while there
I was afraid she was on drugs.
487
00:23:53,299 --> 00:23:55,201
Thelma, Mommy,
Daddy come here quick.
488
00:23:55,235 --> 00:23:56,970
Hey, Michael, what's up?
489
00:23:57,003 --> 00:23:59,839
What's happening? What you
yelling about? What's going on?
490
00:23:59,873 --> 00:24:00,840
What is it, baby?
491
00:24:00,874 --> 00:24:02,075
Everything's cool.
492
00:24:02,108 --> 00:24:03,877
I just figured
if you guys slept all day
493
00:24:03,910 --> 00:24:05,912
I wouldn't get a chance
to open these presents.
494
00:24:05,945 --> 00:24:08,515
Well, here's one
you can open first.
495
00:24:08,548 --> 00:24:10,583
It's to all of us
from Santa Claus.
496
00:24:10,617 --> 00:24:12,819
"To the Evans family.
497
00:24:12,852 --> 00:24:15,689
"You may all have
one wish for Christmas.
498
00:24:15,722 --> 00:24:18,458
Signed, Santa Claus."
499
00:24:18,491 --> 00:24:20,193
Thelma,
you go first.
500
00:24:20,226 --> 00:24:24,764
Well, I wish that something
good happens for Naomi.
501
00:24:24,798 --> 00:24:26,633
And that she gets help.
502
00:24:26,666 --> 00:24:28,935
Oh, Thelma, that's beautiful.
503
00:24:28,968 --> 00:24:31,271
Since I'm the one that plays
Santa Claus for this family
504
00:24:31,304 --> 00:24:34,174
my wish is that all y'alls
wishes come true.
505
00:24:34,207 --> 00:24:35,141
