Man, it sure was nice having Sandra around this weekend, huh?

Aw! I miss her already.

Oh, Grandpa Vinny, before she left,

did Sandra say when she might be back again?

Oh, I get the feeling you'll be seeing Sandra sooner than later.

Ah, baby girl! You didn't leave yet!

You're going to be late for your Sunday study group.

Yeah, man, I ain't paying all this tuition

for you to be playing hooky.

I'm not playing hooky, Dad, OK?

You know, half the study group got a stomach bug,

-so it got canceled. -Oh.

I thought I'd just stay another day, if that's OK.

Of course it is!

You know we cherish the time we get to have our baby back.

Aw, thanks, Mom. Me too.

Well, kids are like athlete's foot.

Just when they think you get rid of them,

they find a way to come back.

Did you just compare me to foot fungus?

You know, I think this conversation

just took a turn for the disgusting.

You know, we'll see you later.

Your dad and I have some errands to run.

Yep. Got to go down to the bank,

make sure there's still some money in there

for all this tuition I'm paying.

Would you hush, Jeremy? We'll see y'all later.

[Jeremy] See ya.

So, uh, Sandra, why you lie to your mom and dad?

-Me? -Yeah, you.

You know your study group didn't get canceled.

Why would you say that?

Because I played enough poker in the Navy

to know a tell when I see one,

not to mention that little unconscious thing you do

every time you lie.

What do I do? I mean, what do you think that I do?

-Ooh, I can't tell you that. -Why not?

Because then you won't do it again.

And then Grandpa Vinny will be stripped

of some valuable intel insight

of his favorite great-granddaughter.

OK, well, I'm not lying.

My study group really did get canceled.

Telling a tale.

OK, you know what? Agree to disagree.

Thank you for breakfast. I'm going up to my room.

You can run, but you can't hide!

Grandpa Vinny always gets to the truth!

She think I'm stupid. I'm just old, but I ain't stupid.

? No matter what you do I love you ?

? No matter where you go I'm behind you for sure ?

? Always remember Blood ain't never water ?

? We'll make it if we stay together ?

Phillip dear,

have you seen my commercial for La'Todd's Fine Dining?

You mean La'Todd's Fast Food? Yeah, I've seen it.

Like 50 times. Remember you keep pausing it

and then waiting for somebody to walk in,

then you press play like it just came on?

No, that doesn't ring a bell.

Anywhoo, a big TV producer named Nora George saw my commercial

and offered me a role on the hit soap opera,

As the Bold and Restless Turn .

That's wonderful, Anastasia.

I love that character on the show

who plays her own twin.

Oh no darling, you're thinking of a character

on Days of Our Children .

Oh, of course.

Must be my dementia kicking in.

Ever since I got diagnosed,

I seem to be getting more and more forgetful.

Aw, don't say that, Judge Juney.

I mean, I get those soap operas mixed up all the time, too.

Yes, well, the role is mine, but on one condition,

that I beef up my social media presence

and get up to 30,000 followers by Friday.

OK, well how many followers do you have now?

What are followers?

-Followers? -I'm kidding, darling.

I've had followers all my life,

just not the imaginary phone kind.

Well, I don't even have social media.

I wouldn't even know where to begin.

Well, you're in luck, my dear.

My doctor recommended that I make a social media account

in order to stay engaged with the world,

and I recently did it, and I can do the same for you.

First order of business to create an account

is you find the icon.

Well, first you want to download the app,

and then you can create an account.

Of course.

My mind isn't what it used to be.

Here Phillip, you take over.

I'll step aside and let Gen Z take the lead.

I just grew up with a phone in my hand, Judge Juney.

All right, so we download the app, and then OK,

put in your email and password.

OK, now we want to upload a photo.

No, no, no, no, no.

You want to put the center on your face, not on your you know.

I thought I was trying to get lots of followers.

OK, fine. My face it is.

Now what?

OK, now you can just follow a bunch of people,

and they'll follow you back.

I know, I'll follow my old lovers

and blow past 30,000 in no time.

OK, or you can also like people's posts,

and then they'll follow you back.

Just hit that heart button. Yep.

Ooh, look at that outfit. Like

Those high heels are to die for. Like.

I see why this could be addictive.

This is gonna take forever.

Wait, I got a way you can get followers quicker.

-What's that? -Live stream.

Whatever that is, sign me up.

Cool, I'll get my sister's halo light.

You do that, dear, and I'll be here liking outfits.

Ooh, look at that fabulous top. Like.

Ooh. Like, like, like, like, like.

Damn, these eggs is slamming!

The Chef, y'all need to come and get these eggs, baby.

Whoo! Just the young lady I wanted to see.

Hi, Grandpa Vinny. Bye, Grandpa Vinny.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, stop right there.

Now, you were supposed to be back in school this morning,

but you didn't go. You want to tell me why?

I already told you, OK? My study group got canceled.

Now, we raised you better than that.

Especially not to lie to your elders.

Last chance, time to tell the truth.

And, uh, don't scratch your neck.

Is that my tell?

Since you was a rug rat.

So that's how you always knew it was me

sneaking chocolates off your dresser?

And you thought I had superpowers. Now, fess up.

OK, fine. I didn't go to my study group because,

I want to change my major.

Change your major? That ain't that bad.

Well, yeah, in theory, but keep in mind

I've already done a bunch of classes towards my major.

And I'd have to start all over again,

which means I basically just

wasted a ton of my parents' money.

Oh, my God, you spent their money?

Oh, my God, oh, my God!

Alert the media! Call somebody!

As my great-grandfather, your jobs make me feel better.

No, it's my job to keep it 100,

which, now your dad, your pop? He gonna be a little salty.

But, uh, how about your mom?

Oh, bad. Really, really bad.

Yeah, she gonna clown sure enough.

She like a gremlin.

Yeah, she'll probably MJ leg-kick me in the back side

and everything.

See, before I declared English as my major,

she thought I might be better suited towards communications.

But I was so sure that English was my passion.

Well, what do you want to change your major to?

-I... -And don't say communication.

Well?

Well, what? You told me not to say it.

Sandra, you're a mess. I'll tell you what.

Do you remember that time

when you broke your mom's vase

when you were double-dutching in the house?

I hid underneath my bed for hours.

I thought my parents were gonna kill me.

But they didn't. You know why?

Because Grandpa Vinny had your back,

and ain't a damn thing changed.

-You still have my back? -I still got your back.

Don't worry about it. Now, here's what we gonna do.

Gonna get on our horse. Get on your horse.

Giddyup. Come on around here. Come on around here.

Come on here.

We'll go find your mom and dad and tell them the truth.

Is your horse gonna ride? Come on, ride along with me.

Hiya! Hiya!

OK, Miss Anastasia, you are now live.

Hello to all my fans out there in Internet land.

The Anastasia Devereaux is here to answer all of your questions.

Great. OK, uh, first question.

"What's your favorite memory from your acting career?"

Asking me to name my favorite memory

is like asking an astronomer to name her favorite star.

There are far too many to choose just one.

But I never like to look back, darlings.

While I'm thankful for all the memories I've made,

to be truly alive, you have to keep making new ones.

Not me. Not anymore.

All right, quick. You're at 15,000 followers.

OK, uh, next question.

"What advice do you have for people who haven't made it yet?"

Nobel Prize author Toni Morrison

wrote her first novel at the age of 40.

No matter your age, there's so much life yet to be lived.

The best is yet to come, darlings, for all of us.

Almost all of us.

You did it, Miss Anastasia! 30,000 followers!

OK, uh, Katiebug12 wants to know

what you're gonna be acting in next.

Well, now that I've hit 30,000 followers,

I can safely say I will be appearing

on your favorite soap opera, As the Bold and Restless Turn .

-Uh-oh. Uh-oh. That ain't good. -What ain't good?

Um, somebody commented a middle finger emoji and two poop,

sorry, three poop emojis. Trying to be accurate.

But I thought people loved that soap opera?

[Philip] Well, they're saying they do love the soap opera,

they just don't like you for some reason.

Oh, 5,000 followers and you're dropping fast.

I don't understand. What did I do?

You're so strong, baby.

Yeah, thanks for your help with the bags.

Oh, you're welcome.

No, I got you. I'll put them up.

Whew.

Why did you buy all these cream-style corn?

Do you even like creamed corn, Jeremy?

I mean, it ain't my favorite,

but it was buy nine, get one free.

I'm not missing that deal.

-Buy nine, get one free? -Yeah.

OK.

Now, you want me to take these to the local food bank now,

or you want me to wait?

Hell, no. I'm eating every kernel of that corn.

I work hard for my money,

ain't nothing worse than wasting it.

I'm gonna have some corn Jell-O, corn burgers, corn dog.

-I'm gonna eat all that corn. -Leon, there you are.

Now, Sandra has something to tell you.

Tell us what?

Uh, that I love creamed corn.

And I thought it's time that I told you.

It's not about creamed corn. It's about college.

Go ahead, tell them.

Ooh, ooh! Did my baby make the dean's list?

Not exactly, no. I need to tell you guys...

I want to change my major.

Change your major? Are you serious?

Come on, Sandra.

Sandra, you have already taken what, three, four classes

towards your English degree?

Five. To the tune of $10,543,

and that's not counting room and board.

Why do you know that exact number?

Because my mind's on my money, and my money's on my mind.

Sandra, look. I mean, I knew English

wasn't the major for you in the first place.

I know, Mom, but it took me being in college

to realize what I want to do with my career.

I want to switch to a communications major.

You know communicating is my passion.

And them high-ass phone bills are the proof of that.

I literally told you to major in communications.

Like, literally, girl!

I'm sorry, OK? I thought English was better. I messed up.

Yeah, well, you're gonna be messing up again

if you don't stick this through, all right?

Now, this is an opportunity to build character.

And you finish this English major that you started.

Ooh, finish, finish. Excuse me, excuse me.

Excuse me, excuse me.

Let me see now.

If memory serves me right,

didn't you change your major not one time,

not two times, but three times when you were in college?

-He did. -Three times, Dad?

Don't you got some ribs you could be making or something?

OK, hold up now.

You got about the best character of a man that I know,

and you make me proud every day.

Thanks, Grandpa.

But it did take you three times to get your major right.

Now he wanna have a good memory, huh? Yeah. All right.

I guess we can look into it

and see about this communications idea.

Why aren't you smiling?

Sandra, you should definitely be smiling right about now.

Well, I'm smiling on the inside, but there is something else.

-Oh, boy. -Something else? What now?

Well, the communications department at Crawford

isn't as good as the one at the local Winding University.

OK.

-She wanna go to Winding? -Let me get this right.

You wanna transfer from Crawford

to hoity-toity Winding University

that costs several arms and legs more?

Yeah, that ain't happening.

You gonna stay right where you're at.

That's gonna be a hard sell, baby girl.

But I don't understand.

Why did all my adoring fans unfollow me?

Um, well, they're saying they don't like you

because you don't like animals.

Since when do you not like animals?

Since never, I love animals.

Then why did you like this post?

Do you not see this woman's chiffon blouse?

Who wouldn't like it?

Well, her page is called The Fashion Marauder.

She's standing next to a giraffe that she just shot.

Oh, my God. How horrible. I didn't even notice that.

But still, I didn't kill a giraffe.

I just liked the blouse on the woman who did.

Yeah well, that's how social media works.

When you like a post,

everybody assumes you like everything about it.

It was one post. One like.

No, because you also liked this one with the dead panda,

koala bear, and the dead bald eagle.

Great. Now they're saying you hate America.

But just look at these leggings!

I know. I'm in trouble, aren't I, Philip?

Yeah, but OK. But we can fix it, OK?

Uh, we just need you to write an apology letter,

and make a donation to an animal shelter, fast. ASAP.

Anastasia, is it a good time for that talk now?

I'm sorry, Reg. I need to concentrate. Please forgive me.

No, no, no. It's OK. I understand.

You got a lot going on in your life. Maybe later.

OK, yes, darling. I'll find you as soon as I get this sorted.

Now Philip, I'm in a bit of a panic here.

What do I need to do again?

Oh, no. My friend just commented,

"Breaking news from an entertainment site."

"Anastasia Devereaux is officially canceled."

Definitely taking this.

Mm-mm.

OK, cereal.

I might need it. Might need syrup.

OK.

Oh, chocolates. Ooh.

I will take fruit.

What are you doing, girl?

Are you playing with my emotions?

Because I swear you told me you were staying.

Funny. No, I'm packing snacks for the road

because I'm returning to school.

I'm doing the responsible thing

and committing to finish my English degree.

Hooray. So lit. Clap emoji.

So, why do you want to go to this local college so bad?

What's so special about it?

Well, for one,

Winding has the top rated communications department

in the nation, and their faculty is made up of marketing experts,

and they even allow social media stars to guest lecture

about the business behind the brand.

-That's pretty cool. -It is.

You know, social media, digital marketing,

digital branding, all these things that I do for fun.

I could get a degree and get a job doing what I love.

OK. Now, you said for one. What's for two?

Well, I spent so much time wanting to get away

that I realized I miss home.

Ha! You miss Lindor.

What? Dad, no.

You guys really think I would switch colleges just for a boy?

Yeah.

OK, fine. I would do that. But that's not the case, OK?

I decided this back when I was still dating

my Crawford boyfriend. It's what I want.

But if you guys don't think I should transfer then...

-It's totally fine. -It is?

Yes. Because I formulated a plan.

Oh, yeah. What's this plan you formulated?

Well, I'm going to honor my commitment

and get my English degree,

and then after I graduate, I'll grab a teaching job

and earn enough money to go back to college

and get my communications degree.

Oh, wow. Now, you are really committed to this plan.

I am, Mom.

I finally figured out what I want to do for my career.

Uh, well, your father and I

did some thinking, and we formulated our own plan.

And we want to send you to Winding University

to get your communication degree.

What? Wait, you do?

Yes.

I mean, we want to give you the future that you want, baby.

And, um, selfishly, we miss having you home.

Aw. I miss you guys, too.

Even Philip. Don't tell him I said that.

-[Leah] OK. -Hold up. So, wait.

So now that we got Sandra back,

we can stop trying to make a baby, right?

-Ew. TMI. -No.

I am still pursuing that dream, baby.

But, um, we want you to pursue your dream, Sandra.

Wait, OK. Dad, the guy who just committed to eating

ten cans of creamed corn because it was on sale

-is really OK with this? -Baby.

Look, your mom pulled out the calculator

and she showed me that it would actually be cheaper

in the long run to have you stay at home

than living in the dorm for years.

Your father is joking. I just showed him that for fun.

I mean, he had already decided that he was going to do

what it took to make sure his baby girl was happy.

And your daddy may be stingy with that coin,

but he's not stingy with his love for his children.

Aw. You guys are the best.

I know.

-Send. -What was that?

Oh, I just submitted the transfer papers.

You sent those forms over already?

Well, hey, when you have parents as supportive as you guys,

it's a lot easier to step out on faith.

That girl putting her communication degree

to work already.

Yeah, you should probably call the soap opera producer

and do some damage control.

Nora?

Have you heard the old adage, no press is bad press?

Yes, I've heard the old adage,

you'll never work in this town again,

but you don't understand, Nora.

She hung up on me.

What did she say?

She officially rescinded the soap opera job offer.

I'm afraid my Hollywood comeback dream is dead.

Has anyone seen Reginald?

He was here a little while ago, but I don't know where he went.

-Is everything OK, Mom? -I don't know, baby.

Uh, he broke into the facility medicine cabinet

and he removed a bottle of sleeping pills.

You sure it was him?

I mean, who else would leave an envelope full of cash

-to replace a broken lock? -Only our dear Reginald.

Miss Anastasia, you don't think he would do anything

to harm himself, do you?

Oh, we have to find him. I don't know.
