I mean, it be in my pocket
sooner than you think.
509
00:19:39,544 --> 00:19:41,511
Aw, that's okay.
Whoa, now, Robert,
510
00:19:41,512 --> 00:19:42,713
gonna be a whole
lot of money.
511
00:19:42,714 --> 00:19:44,382
Uh, you know,
you need it more than me.
512
00:19:44,383 --> 00:19:46,550
Heh-heh! I get it, I get it.
513
00:19:46,551 --> 00:19:50,187
If you don't want none,
I understand completely.
514
00:19:50,188 --> 00:19:52,356
I wouldn't want to give you
something you don't want.
515
00:19:52,357 --> 00:19:53,824
That right, nobody need
516
00:19:53,825 --> 00:19:55,393
to give you something
you don't need.
517
00:19:55,394 --> 00:19:57,494
If you don't want it,
I won't force you.
518
00:19:57,495 --> 00:19:59,663
You just such
a philanthropologist.
519
00:19:59,664 --> 00:20:01,265
You're such a good giver.
520
00:20:01,266 --> 00:20:03,767
You like a saint.
You like Saint Robert.
521
00:20:03,768 --> 00:20:05,435
There should be a little school.
522
00:20:05,436 --> 00:20:07,304
Dressed up-
Ask people to wear a uniform
523
00:20:07,305 --> 00:20:09,473
and they come there
and they pray to you every day...
524
00:20:09,474 --> 00:20:11,074
All right.
Yeah, yeah. Thank you.
525
00:20:11,075 --> 00:20:12,843
LEONA RAY:
It wasn't much, but thank you.
526
00:20:12,844 --> 00:20:14,878
I'll pray for you.
527
00:20:14,879 --> 00:20:18,015
GRANDDAD: Thank you.
Just do it very, very far away.
528
00:20:18,016 --> 00:20:21,818
KID:
We're going to New Orleans.
529
00:20:21,819 --> 00:20:25,356
That's it, go back.
Sayonara, you sorry niggas.
530
00:20:25,357 --> 00:20:27,258
White man brought in
the whole Gulf of Mexico
531
00:20:27,259 --> 00:20:29,593
to wash y'all niggas away,
but go on back.
532
00:20:29,594 --> 00:20:31,829
You niggas ain't too good
at taking a hint, are you?
533
00:20:31,830 --> 00:20:33,630
Go on, save New Orleans.
534
00:20:33,631 --> 00:20:36,266
What they got down there
worth saving? What, jazz?
535
00:20:36,267 --> 00:20:38,235
Jazz music?
I hate jazz music.
536
00:20:38,236 --> 00:20:41,238
Sounds like a long car accident
involving some cats.
537
00:20:41,239 --> 00:20:43,573
Hey, y'all seen that movie
When the Levees Broke?
