[SIGHS] Good.

Nyla, listen to me.

Children left in a house is illegal.

I know.

If you know that, why did you do it?

It's complicated.

Nyla, I have been very patient with you.

I really have.

I've really been trying to help you

get through this and get on your feet.

I know, and we appreciate it.

- We really do. - But you can't leave them here.

I know.

- I know. - If I tell you I gotta go out,

if I tell you we gotta go out,

I don't know what came over me.

Oh, I do.

I know what came over you.

What came over me?

Kendrick.

Nyla, Kendrick!

[CHUCKLES] Ms. Ella...

That man got you wrapped around his little finger.

He's a good man.

Stop saying that to me. You say that a lot.

- He's a good man. - Don't tell me that anymore.

He's getting a lot better.

Okay.

Are you sure that you wanna be with that man?

I'm having his baby, okay?

I understand that. And y'all got that all wrong.

Are you sure that you wanna be with him?

Yes. Yes, I do.

Nyla, that man has not been in therapy long enough.

- He's not been therapy that long. - I know, and it's okay.

No, it's not okay, Nyla. It's not okay!

All of this, it's happening too fast.

It's not okay!

Why do you say that?

Did you leave your kids here alone?

Yes, but...

[CHUCKLES] No buts, baby.

No buts, Nyla. That was him, wasn't it?

It was because of him.

I know it. Wasn't it?

Yes. Yes, it was.

Then why didn't you tell him that you didn't wanna go?

- Because I didn't want to, um... - You didn't want to, um,

get him mad, did you?

No, I didn't.

Why? Why not?

What do you mean, why not?

- Just say it! - Say what?

That you are afraid

of how he will act once he's mad.

Um, that's not what I was gonna say.

So, you left your children here by themselves?

- I'm not afraid of him. - Okay, you're not afraid of him.

Then why did you do it?

- I just wanted to go with him, okay? - You scared. You scared.

- No, I'm not. I'm not... - You... you scared to say it!

Oh, yes you are.

No, she's not afraid.

No, she's not scared to say it.

Hey, babe.

- Hey. - Hey.

- Hi. - Ohh!

[SCOFFS]

So... [CHUCKLES]

How long have you been listening there?

Ms. Ella...

Long enough to know that she's not afraid to tell me

whatever it is y'all are talking about.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh, I wanna know. I wanna know.

And she must be.

Now, what would make you say that, Ms. Ella?

Oh, I don't know.

[CHUCKLES]

Don't you already know?

How many times do I need say it?

You were listening.

- What did I hear? - Lurking.

What did I hear?

- [CHUCKLES] - Just run it back to me.

Oh, so do they teach you that in therapy?

"What did I hear?" Is this some type of method?

"What did I hear?"

Well, let me tell you what I see.

Okay.

Why did you have her leave those kids here by themselves?

Why?

What?

- No, no, no, babe. - Yes, yes, yes, babe.

Oh, I wanna hear this.

Please, baby, just calm down.

Yeah. I... I'm good.

I just wanna hear about her

leaving the kids in the house by theyself.

Yes, I know.

She left them in this house?

What did I say? What did I say?

The l-little boy, too?

What did I say?

The little fire starter?

[SIGHS]

Stop it. You stop it.

- Stop it. - He steals, Ella.

I cannot when you get like this.

- Nyla? - Yeah?

You left the kids in this house by themselves?

Look, I already explained to Ms. Ella.

- Oh, that's very nice of you. - Hmm.

Now you can explain it to me.

[STERNLY] I'm not explaining it again.

Ooh.

- Say what? - Now...

No, no, no, no, no, no, I'm not.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - No, I'm not!

- Wait a minute. - Look, I am a grown woman, okay?

Living in my house.

Yes. And maybe that's the problem.

- Hm. - You j... I think it is,

if you gonna be talking to me like that.

Oh, okay.

Well, I think I should move out.

- You think?! - Mm-hmm.

What makes you think that?

Hmm.

How 'bout, "you should"?

How 'bout, "you will"?

How 'bout, "hold on"? Wait a minute.

- Curtis... - Ain't no wait a minute, Ella.

Okay? Do you see how disrespectful she is right now?

- [SIGHS] - Curtis, just stop it, okay?

- No, no! - Hush.

No, no.

No, no.

Ain't gonna be no hushing.

Okay? I want her to tell me

how she gonna leave some kids

in this house, alone,

by themselves, in my house.

Now, she's not gonna be talking to me like that

in my own house, Ella!

It's okay, baby. I got this.

She ain't really talking to you like that in your house,

'cause we in the backyard.

I'm just saying...

I'm just saying that we in the backyard,

which in the house... you know, the house,

that's a separate addition. It's separated from the wall.

Now we're in the backyard.

Curtis?

What the hell did he say?!

The doctor? He learned that in therapy?

Is that what this is? He wants some of this, too?

Curtis, can you just calm down?

Calm down?! No. No, no.

You know what? Unh-unh. Unh-unh, I'm not doing this.

- Come on, Kendrick. - Wait... wait... Yeah!

You need to go wherever you going!

- I will! - What the...

Hold on! Everybody, stop!

You do realize you're going in my house, right?

- Yeah. - Yeah.

- Why? - To get my kids.

That's a great idea!

That's the best idea you had!

Did he shut my...

- did he shut my door? - Curtis!

He shut my door!

Curtis!

How he gonna shut my door, babe?

You know what?

- Baby, I cannot... - Look at my leg!

Look at my leg, Ella.

This... this don't happen all the time.

Calm your leg down.

I can't tell my leg what to do.

Stop, leg.

It won't listen.

Apparently, nobody's listening.

Just calm down, Curtis, please?

Okay, let's go.

- Let's go in. - Come on.

'Cause I wanna watch her walk out.

Lynn! Kenny!

Yeah?

Come on, we're moving.

- What's going on? - We're moving.

You see? I told you not to tell her!

Well, I had to!

No, you didn't. Now look.

We don't have anywhere to go.

Oh! Hey! We gotta talk.

[CHUCKLES]

Ooh.

What's going on?

I don't know.

It don't look good.

Curtis? E-Ella?

Look, don't you talk to me until you find me some money!

I told you I don't have it!

Ella, what's going on?

- Go get your things. - What things?

- Whatever you have. - We ain't got nothing!

Go now.

Mnh.

See? I told you.

Don't yell at me.

- Don't tell me what to do. - Hey, hey, hey, stop it!

Stop it now!

Somebody please, please, tell me what's going on!

We're moving out.

Oh. What happened?!

She left the kids in this house alone.

- Nyla? - [SIGHS]

After we told her we was going out!

- She knew it! - Oh. Well, then,

they're... they're right, Nyla.

I know they're right.

Uh, then what is the problem?

The way he was talking to me.

Ha, that's the problem?

Because he talk to you crazy.

- Ryan? - I'm just saying.

- Not now. - Sorry.

So I'm getting out of here.

Thank you.

- Curtis? - No, no, no, babe. No!

Now, she left them kids in this house

- by themselves! - I know.

Anything can happen to them, Ella!

Anything could've happened to them.

You know it, and she knows, too.

She knows, too!

Anything could've happened to them kids!

Why would you do that?

- I... - Who does that?

Huh? I wanna know!

I mean, why?

Yeah. Why did she do it?

Well, we had these tickets to this event that we couldn't...

Wait, wait. You went with him and left your kids?

- Yes. - N-n-no...

That's what you did?!

- Nothing happened, okay? - Anything could have!

Please don't get on me, please.

I'm telling the truth!

Like I was.

Well, you know, I'm with Curtis on this one.

Well, y'all can be together on this one.

[CHUCKLES] We will! Ain't that right, Curtis?

Curtis?

Don't you say nothing

until you come up with my money!

You still on that?

Are you crazy?

I was trying to be on your side!

Well, I need dollar bills on my side!

You know what? I can't help you with that.

Ms. Ella, thank you so much for all of your help.

What, I... I didn't do nothing?

Well...

Well, Nyla, he did let you stay here.

Yes, I did.

So you should show him some respect, too.

[CHUCKLES] He should show me some respect.

Well, you both were wrong.

[GASPS]

Ella!

Brutus!

Whose side are you on?

Curtis, you were screaming,

she was screaming,

and you both were not right.

You know what? It don't even matter.

It don't matter, 'cause she's leaving.

Well, I think Nyla should apologize.

Exactly!

You wanna make a little wager?

I got $50 on the big brown bear.

Cash and wood make the money go good.

No. No.

Just saying.

Kids, hurry up!

- Fine, fine. Let's go. - Mommy.

Nyla?

It's a shame.

Are you sure you wanna do this?

I can't let him talk to me like that.

Why you don't be saying nothing about him?

- Man, would you shut up? - Okay.

He's just like my father.

Oh. So that's what this is all about?

Let's go.

Where are you gonna go, Nyla?

Can we at least know where you're gonna go?

That's what I wanna know.

We're gonna be staying with Kendrick.

Hold up.

Uh-oh.

Don't sound like he agree.

W-We're not staying with you?

No.

So where are we going, then?
