00:00:00I
00:00:30Baby, get out here before the cereal gets soggy.
00:00:46Tune our peanut butter, hurry up.
00:00:48Peanut butter.
00:00:49What is she still doing here?
00:00:52That's for the kids' lunches.
00:00:53Well, Jacob offered, so.
00:00:54Well, Jacob's one of the kids.
00:00:56He's a grown-ass man, and you ain't his mama.
00:00:58You do know he's 17, right?
00:01:03Hey, Ma.
00:01:04Is everybody up?
00:01:04Yeah, everything's done, of course.
00:01:06What about you?
00:01:06You tired?
00:01:07Where's your brother?
00:01:08Good morning.
00:01:10He's just getting up.
00:01:11I gotta get back to work.
00:01:13OK, well, I left a plate for you in the fridge
00:01:15for when you get home.
00:01:16All right, talk to you later.
00:01:17Hey, come on.
00:01:18Love you.
00:01:18Love you.
00:01:20Who is she?
00:01:21Who are you?
00:01:21She was just leaving.
00:01:24Let's go.
00:01:24Let's go.
00:01:28I'm proud of you what we have.
00:01:30Yo, thanks for this sis, Kalani.
00:01:32I hope you protected yourself, seriously, from fleas.
00:01:36Remember, there's a no pet rule in the building.
00:01:39Haters, dead ass, both of you.
00:01:41I'm not hating.
00:01:42I'm looking out for you.
00:01:43You stole this, huh?
00:01:45I am.
00:01:45Don't you ever forget it.
00:01:47Buy one minute, fool.
00:01:49Do I get one too, Ma?
00:01:51I'm good, Jacob.
00:01:52I'll take it.
00:01:53No, look, y'all going to be late.
00:01:55Get on.
00:01:56Take this.
00:01:57Thanks, Jake.
00:01:58You know I got you.
00:02:00And scrub the nasty out the tub before mom gets home.
00:02:05Hey, she was nasty and a little bit nasty,
00:02:07but you weren't nasty, nasty.
00:02:09Bye, Jacob.
00:02:16Machines and living things convert energy into what?
00:02:20Heat.
00:02:21Yeah, baby.
00:02:22And how does a living thing convert energy into heat?
00:02:27Sex?
00:02:29That you better not run out of your test.
00:02:34Morning, Kalani.
00:02:35How are you?
00:02:36Ladies usual.
00:02:42I thought she said she was coming.
00:02:44She is.
00:02:46She's supposed to anyway.
00:02:48I hope I didn't choose the one that she's sick.
00:02:51That wouldn't change anything.
00:02:52That, girl, what it do?
00:02:55Uh-uh.
00:02:55What you doing here, Terrence?
00:02:56Boy, you know this ain't your train?
00:02:58Good morning, T.
00:02:59Who you waiting for?
00:03:00Your cousin.
00:03:01Oh, that's the girl.
00:03:03What up, Andre?
00:03:04How you doing?
00:03:05Look, I'm trying to get to school.
00:03:07Come on, girl.
00:03:08You know you're not too busy for your own men.
00:03:10Come on.
00:03:10It's going by.
00:03:12Terrence, where you going?
00:03:13I'm on the class.
00:03:14Where you going?
00:03:15You don't even have a book bag.
00:03:17Shut up.
00:03:31Kalani.
00:03:32Uh-uh.
00:03:34Girl.
00:03:35You know you don't want to be late for school.
00:03:38What's up, Kalani?
00:03:40What's up, Terrence?
00:03:41What?
00:03:42Making you nervous or something?
00:03:43Well, with you staring at me like that.
00:03:45What you doing on this train, anyway?
00:03:47My grandma needed some help with groceries this morning,
00:03:48so I just thought I'd come through.
00:03:49Aw, it's easy.
00:03:50Man, this is my style.
00:03:51Tell Kirk I said hi if you'll see him.
00:03:52You say amen?
00:03:53I don't know.
00:03:54I don't know.
00:03:55I don't know.
00:03:56I don't know.
00:03:57I don't know.
00:03:58I don't know.
00:03:59I don't know.
00:04:00I don't know.
00:04:01I don't know.
00:04:02I don't know.
00:04:03You've been doing it.
00:04:04No, it's easy.
00:04:05Man, this is my style.
00:04:06Tell Kirk I said hi if I see him.
00:04:08You still your man?
00:04:09Yes, that's still my man.
00:04:10You sure?
00:04:20What the hell is doing that?
00:04:23Yes.
00:04:24You need to stop.
00:04:29Okay, girls.
00:04:32Your next assignment, write a paper
00:04:33on The Lie by Kurt Vonnegut.
00:04:35I expect you all did the reading.
00:04:37Chan down, Kalani, it was a rhetorical question.
00:04:39It's AP literature.
00:04:42Now, who can tell me what Kurt Vonnegut's
00:04:45The Lie was all about?
00:04:47Can I raise my hand now,
00:04:48or is that also a rhetorical question?
00:04:51Amy, it's a book about the American dream.
00:04:54Really?
00:04:56You have to go deeper, Amy.
00:04:59Bethany, what are your thoughts?
00:05:01It's a short story about a boy whose family
00:05:03donates money to a private school much like ours,
00:05:06but the school doesn't accept the boy
00:05:07because his test scores aren't good enough.
00:05:09Even though his family had gone to the school
00:05:11for generations, it's completely unfair.
00:05:14Good, Bethany, you have hit on the topic of this assignment.
00:05:20Continue, Bethany.
00:05:22Most of us in this room would agree
00:05:23that private schools are private for a reason.
00:05:26If you can't afford it,
00:05:28you shouldn't have the right to a better education.
00:05:30That is a very strong point of view.
00:05:35The testers are due on Monday.
00:05:38They account for one-third of your final grade,
00:05:40and I am expecting nothing short of your very best.
00:05:46Kalani, I need to see you for a moment.
00:05:48Good afternoon, Kalani.
00:06:05Your college application is there.
00:06:08You sure you don't want me to send any others?
00:06:10I think I could take it to the mailbox myself.
00:06:16I've given this a lot of thought.
00:06:19And Yale is where I want to be and my first choice.
00:06:26I understand.
00:06:27I can be behind it.
00:06:28Thank you, and-and, um, for helping with the application fees.
00:06:35I don't know what I want to do if I don't get in.
00:06:39The great what-ifs of life.
00:06:41It either propels you to greatness
00:06:45or stunts you into immobility.
00:06:47It's going to take you sitting down
00:06:50and staying focused on what has to be done.
00:06:55That's your destiny.
00:06:57My destiny?
00:06:58You sound so much like me.
00:07:00Yeah, but did you have a bitch-ass bigot
00:07:02trying to ruin you?
00:07:03I hate Ms. Umans.
00:07:05Ms. Umans?
00:07:07She has a problem with me.
00:07:09I'm the only black girl in our class,
00:07:10and she makes sure I know it.
00:07:12It's good preparation for you, Kalani.
00:07:15Mm.
00:07:16Let me tell you a little story.
00:07:19I was your own brother from the projects.
00:07:22Mm.
00:07:23My mother gave birth to me at 13.
00:07:25Mm.
00:07:26I didn't know what I was doing.
00:07:28I didn't know what I was doing.
00:07:30I didn't know what I was doing.
00:07:33I didn't know what I was doing.
00:07:35I didn't know what I was doing.
00:07:37I didn't know what I was doing.
00:07:38I had all the world on my shoulder
00:07:41and all the odds against me.
00:07:44Yeah.
00:07:46I was told that I was brilliant and accomplished just like you.
00:07:51I even got a scholarship to play baseball
00:07:55and be a pitcher at one of the top-ranked high schools.
00:08:00Then the team got a coach who was not interested
00:08:05in having a black pitcher.
00:08:09I was disappointed.
00:08:11I was upset.
00:08:12I felt like I had lost my confidence, all those things.
00:08:16My grades fell.
00:08:17All those things happened to me.
00:08:19And I think since I'm a black man in this white man's world,
00:08:23why should I dream big?
00:08:26Why can't I just sit on the bench of life like everyone else
00:08:30and don't follow my dreams?
00:08:32Yeah.
00:08:34Nah, I didn't go into baseball like I wanted to.
00:08:38I didn't go into my dream.
00:08:41But I made it.
00:08:44Yeah.
00:08:45Through all that, I got through it.
00:08:51And I look at that and I think about you
00:08:55because that's what you're going to have to do.
00:08:57You're going to have to get through it.
00:08:59All the things that you're angry about,
00:09:02all the ways in which your dreams are often undermined,
00:09:06you're going to have to get through it.
00:09:08And you, you can do that.
00:09:12I think so.
00:09:14Step one is to be present and to be focused.
00:09:19So get out there.
00:09:21I got it.
00:09:38Are you kidding?
00:09:39Daddy's in the south of France, last I heard.
00:09:42The card's got us.
00:09:44Thanks.
00:09:45No problem.
00:09:51You know the school year's almost over
00:09:53and you've still never taken me to a party in Harlem?
00:09:56I hear they're epic.
00:09:57I could be your plus one.
00:09:58My plus one?
00:10:00What?
00:10:01I mean it.
00:10:02You're telling me you don't need to blow off steam?
00:10:04Katie, have you ever been above 96th Street?
00:10:07Of course I have.
00:10:08I took a tour of Columbia.
00:10:10Mmm.
00:10:11Okay.
00:10:12Yeah.
00:10:13Okay.
00:10:18Kalani, you ready?
00:10:19Let's go.
00:10:20Hi, Katie.
00:10:21Hi, Kirk.
00:10:22It's nice to see you again.
00:10:23Oh, it's nice to see you too.
00:10:25Hi, Katie.
00:10:26Kalani, you know I don't like being down here.
00:10:28Oh, don't be so dramatic.
00:10:30Kalani, let's go.
00:10:34Um, bye, Katie.
00:10:36See you later.
00:10:37Okay.
00:10:38Let me know about going out this weekend.
00:10:40Gotcha.
00:10:42I thought we had plans, just you and I.
00:10:43You're looking good today, baby.
00:10:55You waiting on me?
00:10:57My brother was supposed to pick me up.
00:10:59I don't know where he is and he's not picking up his phone.
00:11:01Hey, Ty, hop in the V.
00:11:02Let's get to the crib.
00:11:03I want my friends tonight, Malik.
00:11:04I'm good.
00:11:05You headed back to 1 55th?
00:11:08I can get you a ride if that's what you ask.
00:11:10Well, you took me for a ride a couple times last month and then I never saw you again.
00:11:14Oh, you know I love you, shorty.
00:11:17I'm going to hop in the whip so we can get to the crib.
00:11:40See?
00:11:41Nice and tight.
00:11:43Home or soup stock?
00:11:46I'll get eat.
00:12:07Hey, Dad.
00:12:08Hey, Pastor.
00:12:09Hey, Kalani.
00:12:10How you doing?
00:12:11How's Mom and the family?
00:12:12Everybody's good.
00:12:13Yeah?
00:12:14What about this knucklehead?
00:12:15How's he treating you?
00:12:17Son, you're not going to help her with the backpack?
00:12:19Taught you better than that.
00:12:20Yes.
00:12:21My bad, Dad.
00:12:22Please.
00:12:23Offer something to drink?
00:12:24Oh, I'm fine, really.
00:12:25Good.
00:12:26You guys have homework?
00:12:27Yeah, a big paper.
00:12:28All right, well, you know you're welcome to stay and have dinner with us.
00:12:29Just tell your Mom.
00:12:30Thanks, Pastor.
00:12:31All right.
00:12:32I have a big meeting at the church, so I'll be back in a couple of hours.
00:12:33All right, Pop.
00:12:34Love you.
00:12:35Take care.
00:12:36I've got my eye on you.
00:12:37I've got my eye on you.
00:12:38I need some drink.
00:12:39Hey, how about we shut this?
00:12:40Hey, what do you think?
00:12:41Hey, what are you doing?
00:12:42What do you think?
00:12:43I'm going to take care of my mom?
00:12:44Thanks, Pastor.
00:12:45I have a big meeting at the church, so I'll be back in a couple of hours.
00:12:46All right, Pop.
00:12:47Love you.
00:12:48Take care.
00:12:49I've got my eye on you.
00:12:50I'll give you some drink.
00:13:04Hey, how about we shut this?
00:13:07Hey, what are you doing?
00:13:09Let's go upstairs.
00:13:10Why?
00:13:11There's more contour up there. Come on, babe.
00:13:13I'm fine. Comfortable enough.
00:13:16Down, boy.
00:13:20Yo, I'm not your damn boy. And I'm not a dog.
00:13:27Okay, what just happened?
00:13:29Why you always gotta be like that?
00:13:30Like what?
00:13:31Boring. Kalani, boring. A tease.
00:13:34All my friends get to brag about what their girls do for them.
00:13:37I can't say nothing.
00:13:38You don't do nothing for me, you don't want me,
00:13:41and you don't care about me.
00:13:43Yeah.
00:13:45I care about you.
00:13:47Then prove it.
00:13:50I said no.
00:13:52Relax, relax.
00:13:53I said no.
00:13:54Stop.
00:13:55Stop, Kurt.
00:13:57Stop, Kurt.
00:14:03Stop, Kurt.
00:14:06Stop.
00:14:07Stop, Kurt.
00:14:08Stop.
00:14:10Stop.
00:14:11Stop.
00:14:12I said no.
00:14:13Relax, relax.
00:14:14I said no.
00:14:16What?
00:14:16Stop.
00:14:17Stop.
00:14:18Stop, Kurt.
00:14:20Stop, Kurt.
00:14:22Stop.
00:14:25Stop.
00:14:36Hey, babies.
00:14:38Hey, where you going?
00:14:40You're my future wife.
00:14:56I wonder why all my children are.
00:14:58Hey, mom.
00:14:59What's got you so out of breath?
00:15:01That's him.
00:15:03Where's Bebe?
00:15:05I'm going to kill that little girl.
00:15:06That's some chicken and dumplings on the stove
00:15:08with some white rice.
00:15:10Go make yourself a plate.
00:15:11I'm not hungry, mom.
00:15:12Chicken and dumplings is one of your favorites.
00:15:14Would you say it's home?
00:15:15No.
00:15:16Bebe, do you know what time it is?
00:15:20I'm sorry.
00:15:21I didn't think he was home yet.
00:15:22I was waiting on Jacob, and he never came to get me.
00:15:25Just because I'm not home doesn't mean you shouldn't be.
00:15:28I want you to come straight home after school,
00:15:30whether Jacob gets you or not.
00:15:31Do you understand?
00:15:33Yes, mama.
00:15:35So where have you been?
00:15:37With a friend.
00:15:38What friend?
00:15:39Tied from downstairs.
00:15:40I thought I told you to stay away from that family.
00:15:43I'm sorry, I forgot.
00:15:45You forgetting something?
00:15:51You stink, Bebe.
00:15:53You been having sex?
00:15:55No.
00:15:56Don't you lie to me, girl.
00:15:57Where you get this necklace from, huh?
00:15:58From a friend.
00:15:59He gave it to you for nothing?
00:16:01Ma, I didn't believe that.
00:16:02The next words that come out of your mouth better not be a lie.
00:16:07I can't even look at you right now and get out of my face
00:16:09and go take a shower before I beat your ass.
00:16:11I told you to look after your sister.
00:16:13How could you let this happen?
00:16:31I don't know.
00:16:32I don't know.
00:16:35Kalani, have you seen my shower cap?
00:16:40Have you seen my shower cap?
00:16:44You mad at me too?
00:16:46What do you think?
00:16:49Why don't you tell me you're having sex, Bebe?
00:16:55I can't protect you if you don't tell me anything.
00:16:58I'm sorry.
00:17:02You use condoms, right?
00:17:04Sometimes.
00:17:06Sometimes?
00:17:07They only work if you use them every time.
00:17:10He doesn't like condoms.
00:17:11He says they don't feel the same.

00:23:13You still watch these cartoons?
00:23:19I stopped watching these, like, six months ago.
00:23:33Baby, you look better than all of those girls.
00:23:36I know.
00:23:37I really care about you.
00:23:39You always say that.
00:23:41Look, could you go get your brother?
00:23:43Why you don't want to just chill with me?
00:23:44Why you always want to be with my brother?

00:24:27I'm sorry.
00:24:28I told you I couldn't mess with you no more if you had your period, baby.
00:24:32It's not like I planned it.
00:24:33I'm sorry, Malik.
00:24:34What you trying to do?
00:24:35Shoot me this job.
00:24:36What's going on in here?

00:24:43Don't worry about me.
00:24:44Worry about yourself.

00:24:46Coco.
00:24:47Go in the room.
00:24:48Malik.
00:24:49Get in the room.
00:24:50Malik.

00:24:56Why would I make this up?
00:24:57You can't have no baby.
00:24:59He'll kill you.
00:25:00You don't know him, baby.
00:25:02He did that because he's in shock.
00:25:04I'm his girl.
00:25:05He loves me.
00:25:06Malik already got a girl.
00:25:08And your point?
00:25:18Handle that.
00:25:19But Malik...
00:25:20Get away from me.
00:25:21Hey.
00:25:22But...
00:25:23I want her gone when I come back out of here.
00:25:25You better leave now.
00:25:26Don't tell me what to do.
00:25:27Tell me what to do.
00:25:37What is this?
00:25:38What is this?
00:25:39What is this?
00:25:40What is this?
00:25:41What is this?
00:25:42I want her to go.
00:25:43Ooh.
00:25:44Yes!
00:25:45I see what you want, but what did I do with me?
00:25:49Come on, too long.
00:25:50We want to change the last bit.
00:25:53Oh, this is cute.
00:25:59Mm-mm.
00:26:01Oh, yes!
00:26:03Girl, this is cute, right?
00:26:06Yeah, if you want to look like a highlighter.
00:26:08Bitch, don't hate.
00:26:09I'm going to try it on.
00:26:11What about this?
00:26:12This is appropriate.
00:26:13Come on, no.
00:26:14Girl, you've been hanging with them frippy white kids too long, girl.
00:26:17Come on.
00:26:18I'm not going to church, okay?
00:26:19I'm trying to turn up.
00:26:21Woo, girl!
00:26:23I'm about to be blessed.
00:26:25Still cute.
00:26:37I'm ready to go.
00:26:39Where's the dress?
00:26:43Girl, you got broke.
00:26:44That dress was like $9.
00:26:46Yeah, you look like a highlighter.
00:26:47Girl, don't hate.
00:26:48At least I don't fit into the background like you.
00:26:50Take it off.
00:26:51Girl.
00:26:54Look, come on first.
00:26:55All right?
00:26:56Shut up.
00:26:57Hold it.

00:27:09Yo!
00:27:10Girl, that was crazy.
00:27:12Who?
00:27:13What the hell, Tanya?
00:27:14You could've just warned us.
00:27:15You just left us there.
00:27:16I totally thought you were right behind me.
00:27:19And guess what?
00:27:20Y'all were!
00:27:21You know what that could've did to my chances at Yale if we got caught, stupid?
00:27:24Ridiculous.
00:27:25Unbelievable.
00:27:26Girl, where's my purse?
00:27:27Ask me to go shopping with you ever again in life.
00:27:30Ever.
00:27:31Let it go.
00:27:32There's a party to get ready for.
00:27:33I told you I'm not going.
00:27:35I have a paper due Monday.
00:27:37I said that.
00:27:38Really?
00:27:39Homework over a party?
00:27:40Yes.
00:27:41Come on, you're so corny.
00:27:42Really?
00:27:43Come on now.
00:27:44You're corny.
00:27:45It's not about being corny.
00:27:46Tanya's about getting into Yale.
00:27:47Right.
00:27:48After Harvard, the second or third most prestigious school in the country.
00:27:50Tanya, you clearly don't get it, but...
00:27:53You're obsessed with that school, right?
00:27:55Did you even apply to Columbia or City College, even?
00:27:58Oh, no.
00:27:59She trying to be one of those bougie Negroes who leaves Harlem behind and forgets where
00:28:02they came from.
00:28:03Okay.
00:28:04Or...
00:28:05It's about that sperm donor you're so fascinated with.
00:28:09He went to Yale.
00:28:11Big deal.
00:28:12He was an asshole.
00:28:13He used your mom, had to push out three of y'all.
00:28:15Really?
00:28:16Then he moved back to his real family on the Upper West Side.
00:28:19Forget that fool.
00:28:20Cause you don't need to hide in the shadow of that bastard.
00:28:22Move on.
00:28:23What are you talking about?
00:28:24I live in the shadow.
00:28:25Me and my brother.
00:28:26Walk in his shoes.
00:28:27Pay his bills.
00:28:28Bitch, you didn't do it alone.
00:28:29Okay?
00:28:30Okay.
00:28:31I was there too when your ass was too little to do a goddamn thing.
00:28:34Meanwhile, my mama sucking dick in the stairwell.
00:28:38We family.
00:28:39We got through it without that fool.
00:28:41And we getting through now.
00:28:43What you need to do is find his ass, call him out in front of his dumb ass wife and them
00:28:49fat ass kids.
00:28:50They fat.
00:28:51You know it.
00:28:52They fat.
00:28:53You seen them on Facebook?
00:28:54How do you know they fat?
00:28:55They fat.
00:28:56What are you talking about?
00:28:57Listen, look, look.
00:28:58I just wanted to see you smile, right?
00:29:00A laugh.
00:29:01Now, please go with me to this party.
00:29:03No, I'm not going.
00:29:04I have dreams and goals.
00:29:05Listen.
00:29:06You can pipe dream about Yale and you play a pimp daddy.
00:29:09All of that stuff afterwards.
00:29:10It's not a pipe dream.
00:29:11It's not about a dream deferred.
00:29:13Um, it's about getting into Yale.
00:29:15I have dreams, goals, aspirations, vision.
00:29:18Unlike you, whose vision doesn't go past tonight in some lame ass nigga in Jordans.
00:29:23That's your life.
00:29:24Not my life.
00:29:25Why you gotta make my man lame though?
00:29:26Okay?
00:29:27He always lame.
00:29:28My ex with his fake, religious, bad, rough ass, you know.
00:29:30Really?
00:29:31His rough stink.
00:29:32FYI.
00:29:33I'm not going to Yale because he went to Yale.
00:29:36I'm going because Jane Matilda Bowling went to Yale.
00:29:38The first black woman to graduate Yale Law.
00:29:41The first black woman to become a judge.
00:29:43Ooh.
00:29:44Thank you very much.
00:29:45Mm-hmm.
00:29:46And I'm gonna go the distance and become a lawyer.
00:29:48Maybe I'll become a judge.
00:29:50And when I do, then I'll come back to Harlem, pick up my whole entire family, and move them
00:29:55to Stryvers Row.
00:29:57You're welcome.
00:29:58I'll be your neighbor then.
00:29:59Yes, you will.
00:30:03Inspiring.
00:30:04Kumbaya-ish.
00:30:05But until then, we going to a pop-in party, right?
00:30:08When you hit it big, I'll move my ashy little kids on up to Kalani Street.

00:33:05It's just, I'm sorry.
00:33:09I live up on the 18th.
00:33:14It was good seeing you tonight, Kalani.
00:33:17Hey.
00:33:18Hey.
00:33:19Hey.
00:33:20Mama's out with you.
00:33:21I've heard that.
00:33:22Did Jacob come home?
00:33:24No.
00:33:25Baby, isn't it a little late for you to be eating a plate of bacon?
00:33:30Yeah.
00:33:31But I don't want it.
00:33:32Did you get that pregnancy test?
00:33:33Yeah.
00:33:34And?
00:33:35Hello?
00:33:36You deaf?
00:33:50I heard you.
00:33:51Okay.
00:33:52You were right.
00:34:06You pregnant?
00:34:09You pregnant?
00:34:10Did you tell Ty?
00:34:14Yeah.
00:34:15Well?
00:34:17He wants me to get rid of it.
00:34:20Are you?
00:34:22I don't know.
00:34:24What should I do?
00:34:25I can't tell you that.
00:34:26You gotta figure that out on your own.
00:34:29Well, what would you do?
00:34:30I wouldn't have had sex in the first place.
00:34:32You're a kid.
00:34:34How old is Ty?
00:34:36Um, 13.
00:34:38What is wrong with you?
00:34:40I can't have one decent day.
00:34:41I don't know.
00:34:41I don't know how this happened.
00:34:43I'm sorry.
00:34:43Don't apologize to me.
00:34:45You the one who got pregnant.
00:34:47I can't have one decent day.
00:34:48Without dealing with mess from you.
00:34:50Ma, Jacob, Tanya, auntie.
00:34:54Like, one day apiece.
00:35:00I'm scared, Kalani.
00:35:04I'm here for you, sis, okay?
00:35:07I'm here for you, sis, okay?
00:35:16Get that.
00:35:17I got you.
00:35:18I got you.
00:35:19I got you.
00:35:20Okay.
00:35:33Girls, time to get ready for church.
00:35:34Good morning, Ma.
00:35:35What you doing?
00:35:36I've been up since five working on my English paper.
00:35:41You want to read it?
00:35:43I need you to get ready for church.
00:35:45Oh, wake up, baby.
00:35:47Wake up.
00:35:48Did your brother come home?
00:35:51I haven't spoken to him since yesterday.
00:35:54Call him and remind him of his responsibility to pay his part of the rent.
00:35:59I got a notice under my door, and you know I don't like getting no notices under my door.
00:36:03And wake her up, too.
00:36:06Okay, Ma.
00:36:08Wake up, baby.
00:36:11Baby.
00:36:12Baby.
00:36:13Hey, baby.

00:36:15Hey, baby.
00:36:16Hey.
00:36:17Hey.
00:36:18No.
00:36:19We gotta go to church.
00:36:20I'm not going.
00:36:21Why?
00:36:22I feel like a hypocrite.
00:36:25Nobody in church is perfect.
00:36:28Nobody.
00:36:29Hello.
00:36:30You're a weed head.
00:36:32Girl, since you know so much, get your butt up.
00:36:36Shut up.
00:36:49Your phone's ringing.
00:36:50Hi.
00:36:51Hello?
00:36:52Jacob, where are you?
00:36:54Ma, calm down.
00:36:56She's been asking for you.
00:36:58She needs you to pay your half for the rent.
00:37:01I'm sorry.
00:37:02She told me to remind you.
00:37:03Honey, I'mma be home in a few, and I'mma take care of that.
00:37:06I decided, though, I can do more for y'all if I don't live there.
00:37:11Please come home.
00:37:12Come home to get my stuff, and then I'm out.
00:37:15I gotta go.
00:37:17Bye.
00:37:23You got that money for me?
00:37:28I gotta hug her.
00:37:31That's all I got right now.
00:37:38This ain't enough, Carmen.
00:37:39I thought you said you got me.
00:37:41I gotta pay what I owe for rent and for the rock, or else they'll be coming for me.
00:37:45I was already supposed to settle up yesterday.
00:37:47What am I supposed to do with this, Carmen?
00:37:48Listen.
00:37:49Listen.
00:37:50Next week, I can ask my husband for more.
00:37:52I got you, babe.
00:37:53Come on.
00:37:54I didn't even know why you're bringing him up.
00:37:55And next week, it's too late.
00:37:57I need the money now, Carmen.
00:37:58Don't leave, please.
00:37:59I gotta go.
00:38:00You said you got me, but obviously you don't.
00:38:02So you know what I'mma have to do?
00:38:03I'mma have to go out here and get it on my own, like I should have in the first place.
00:38:06Don't go yet, babe.
00:38:07Your team didn't need breakfast.
00:38:08Come on.
00:38:09Please stay.

00:44:18Yale.
00:44:20Yale?
00:44:22Wow.
00:44:23I feel like it's a little out of my league, but it's the same way I felt before I applied to the school I'm at now.
00:44:28You're right.
00:44:30I definitely didn't know the girl behind those beautiful braids.
00:44:57From now on, only when we're in public, but not like this when we're alone, Ty.
00:45:02What do you mean?
00:45:04Malik, I've been waiting for you.
00:45:08Ty, I thought I told you not to let her back in here.
00:45:11I have to talk to you.
00:45:12About what?
00:45:14I already gave you the bread?
00:45:16I'm keeping it.

00:45:19Look, I got a plan.
00:45:21Ty and I will act like we're a couple, and people will think it's his, but you and I will not.
00:45:25You and I will not.
00:45:26You gonna do what I said.

00:47:45She's bleeding.
00:47:46She's bleeding.
00:47:47She's bleeding.
00:47:48She's bleeding.
00:47:49She's bleeding.

00:48:06My sister, my baby sister, we need an ambulance now.
00:48:09One-wheel tower, C-18-4.
00:48:12I'm right here, baby.
00:48:13I'm right here.
00:48:14You're going to cry.
00:48:15I'm right here, okay?
00:48:16Hey, I need you to tell me what happened, okay?
00:48:19It was my heart.
00:48:20He told me.
00:48:22He didn't want another baby.
00:48:24Who, baby, who?
00:48:28Malie.
00:48:37Where's your brother?
00:48:38He ain't here.
00:48:39Man, move.
00:48:40Malie, where are you at?
00:48:42Get your ass out here.
00:48:46Man, that's my sister.
00:48:47What's wrong with you, man?
00:48:48She's a kid, man.
00:48:50She's a baby, you son of a bitch.
00:48:52If I ever see you run again, I'll kill you.
00:48:55You hear me?
00:48:55I'll kill you.
00:49:06Malie!
00:49:07Yeah, Mom.
00:49:25Okay.
00:49:26Okay, I'm on the way.
00:49:26I'll meet you at the hospital.
00:49:27What's going on?
00:49:28My mom needs to meet her at the hospital.
00:49:30Okay, well, I'm going with you.
00:49:31Okay.
00:49:31I didn't know.
00:49:37I swear to you, I didn't know this was happening.
00:49:41I have to ask you these questions, Ms. Johnson.
00:49:43I'm sure you understand.
00:49:44Kalani, thank God you're here.
00:49:45What happened?
00:49:46They got me out here questioning like I'm a criminal.
00:49:50That baby's in the room down the hall.
00:49:52You're from Child Protective Services?
00:49:55We're asking your mother a few questions.
00:49:57It's standard procedure in matters like this.
00:49:59When my mom busts her ass every day,
00:50:01you should be ashamed of yourself.
00:50:03You the brother?
00:50:05It's a friend.
00:50:06Well, then you can't be in here, son.
00:50:08I just wanted to make sure Kalani got here okay.
00:50:10I'll be in the waiting room.
00:50:12Here at Friday if you two need anything.
00:50:18You could give us some privacy too, miss.
00:50:22Of course.
00:50:24Here's my card.
00:50:26I'll reach out to you if I have more questions.
00:50:29Do you know you could cost me my child?
00:50:41I trusted you.
00:50:43What's taking so long?
00:50:45I cost 20 minutes to go.
00:50:47This isn't God-related.
00:50:53Every home could die.
00:50:54He is dying.
00:50:55Jacob.
00:50:59Jacob, my love.
00:51:01Jacob.
00:51:02Jacob, my God.
00:51:04Oh, my God.
00:51:13Oh, my God.
00:51:16Hello?
00:51:17Hello?
00:51:18Hello?
00:51:18Who's this?
00:51:20Oh, my God.
00:51:21Where's Jacob?
00:51:24Where's Jacob?
00:51:25Put him on the phone.
00:51:29Oh, my.
00:51:30I'm so sorry.
00:51:33There is so much blood.
00:51:36Jacob's been shot.
00:51:38What?
00:51:38Put him on the phone.
00:51:40Put the phone to his ear.
00:51:43Jacob, Mr. Baby, please wake up.
00:51:47Jacob?
00:51:48Can you hear me?
00:51:52Jacob.
00:51:52Jacob.
00:51:52We came into this world together, Jay, me and you.
00:51:58You came in one minute before me.
00:52:00To protect me.
00:52:03We have big dreams.
00:52:04We're going to do big things together.
00:52:06Remember?
00:52:07Remember Jacob?
00:52:10Remember?
00:52:11What's happening?
00:52:13Where's Jacob?
00:52:15Hello?
00:52:15Hello?
00:52:15I love you, I'll never leave.
00:52:45You're a part of me, I love you so much, I'll never leave, you're a part of me, so stay, stay, stay with me.
00:53:15I love you, I love you, I love you.
00:53:22Paul wrote these words in the book of 2nd Timothy chapter 4 verse 7.
00:53:31He says, I have fought the good fight.
00:53:38I have finished the race.
00:53:45I have kept the faith.
00:53:52But there are these times when the loved one we have lost has been taken far too soon.
00:54:07Taken violently.
00:54:14Taken before they could even finish their race.
00:54:22Jacob.
00:54:23Jacob was taken too soon.
00:54:28He was taken too soon.
00:54:32And at times like these, we ask questions.
00:54:39The main question we ask is, why?
00:54:49Why so young?
00:54:54Why so soon?
00:54:58Why this pain?
00:54:59Why this grief?
00:55:01Why did God allow this to happen?
00:55:13I want you to know.
00:55:14I want you to know that it is perfectly okay to ask why.
00:55:20Jesus himself asked why.
00:55:23Jesus himself asked why.
00:55:27While on the cross, he claimed, Eli, Eli, sabachthani.
00:55:36Why?
00:55:37Which is to say, my God, my God, why has thou forsaken me?
00:55:53The problem with that question is, most of the time, we'll never find that answer.
00:56:05So, beloved, it behooves us this morning to sometime, in some way, change the question.
00:56:14From why to, to what.
00:56:20What do I do now?
00:56:23What do we do next?
00:56:28I'll tell you what you do.
00:56:31You grow.
00:56:34You keep loving.
00:56:35You keep praying.
00:56:37You live.
00:56:39Got some good news.
00:56:40I got in.
00:56:41I got accepted.
00:56:42I'm going to Howard.
00:56:43Oh, wow.
00:56:44Congratulations.
00:56:46I'm still waiting on some financial aid, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to take
00:56:51out some student loans, but I'm in there.
00:56:52Whatever you got to do, right?
00:56:53You know, the family's having a party this Friday to celebrate, and you already know.
00:57:00How you feeling?
00:57:01I don't really know how to feel.
00:57:03We're here for you, you know.
00:57:04Whatever you need.
00:57:05Okay?
00:57:06Uh, okay?
00:57:07Uh, okay?
00:57:08Yeah, I'm so happy.
00:57:09Yeah, I'm so happy.
00:57:10I'm so happy.
00:57:11I'm so happy.
00:57:12I'm so happy.
00:57:13I'm so happy.
00:57:14I'm so happy.
00:57:15All right?
00:57:16You know, the family's having a party this Friday to celebrate, and you already know.
00:57:18How you feeling?
00:57:19It's like, I don't know.
00:57:20You know, I like the family.
00:57:21I like the family's having a friendly family one day.
00:57:22And it's relationships.
00:57:23And so, I actually saw your
00:57:28everyone really expressing themselves about the cold and his feet.
00:57:35Well, so, it's over here.
00:57:38We're here for you for you, you know.
00:57:43Whatever you need.
00:57:45Oh my god, Kalani, what are you doing here?
00:57:56I'm so sorry.
00:57:58Screw this paper.
00:58:00Screw Ms. Owens, I could have come and picked it up for you.
00:58:03You need to be with your family right now.
00:58:06This is about my family.
00:58:15Bethany, please collect the essays.
00:58:30Kalani, if you need more time, I understand.
00:58:32I can give you an extension.
00:58:34No, I have it right here.
00:58:36You finished your paper?
00:58:39This is the real world.
00:58:41Only extensions in the real world.
00:58:43But there's never enough time.
00:59:05Can I talk to you?
00:59:08You don't have to talk at all.
00:59:13Come here.
00:59:15Come here, come here, come here, baby.
00:59:17Come here.
00:59:19Come here.
00:59:21Come here.
00:59:23I wish I could take this pain away, but I can't.
00:59:27And I wish I had the worst, but I don't.
00:59:31Okay, but I'm here.
00:59:33I'm here.
00:59:35I'm here.
00:59:36Can you go with me?
00:59:40What's this?
00:59:42I found my father's address.
00:59:46Why?
00:59:47You don't want to do this.
00:59:48Not now.
00:59:50I know his family doesn't know about his son.
00:59:53But I think he needs to know his son is dead.
00:59:55I think you're angry, and you deserve it to be.
00:59:57I just want to drop the obituary off.
01:00:00I don't care how he feels about it.
01:00:02Do you think it's as simple as that?
01:00:04What, do you knock on the door, it's going to pull you into his arms?
01:00:09What is a family, Kalani?
01:00:11What does it really mean to be a dad?
01:00:15Anybody can be a father.
01:00:17But Jacob's life, Jacob's loss, is worthy of a dad.
01:00:23I don't have the answers to that.
01:00:28You're going to have to think this through.
01:00:32I need you.
01:00:34I need you to think it through.
01:00:37I need you to think it through.
01:00:40I can't.
01:00:41I don't have any more room.
01:00:43I don't have the room for it.
01:00:45I can't do it.
01:00:46I can't do everything and be everything to everybody.
01:00:49I can't take my sister to school, make sure she's okay, make her lunch, bury my brother,
01:00:56try to get her to college, try to have a life and be a kid.
01:00:59I can't do it.
01:01:00I can't do it.
01:01:01Take a breath.
01:01:05Take a breath.
01:01:08All you're going through is too much for anyone at any age.
01:01:15And maybe you should take a break.
01:01:17No, no, no, you should take a break for school for a while.
01:01:21It's going to be all right.
01:01:23It won't affect your grades.
01:01:28This is one moment in your life that you have to go through.
01:01:34You will get through it.
01:01:36Hey, little lady.
01:01:56Hey, Mr. Stove.
01:01:58This elevator's broken, and this one's going to express.
01:02:04Express to where?
01:02:06It's going straight to the top.
01:02:09Well, I live up on 18th.
01:02:11I can walk down.
01:02:12What are you going to do?
01:02:14Wait for the repairman.
01:02:16What else can I do?
01:02:17I know you don't move.
01:02:38Oh, here she goes.
01:02:41Keep it moving.
01:02:42Damn.
01:02:43You know I got room for you, too, sweetheart.
01:02:45Oh, shut up.
01:02:46Just watch your mouth, yo.
01:02:47Just keep it moving.
01:02:48College.
01:02:53The elevator's broken.
01:02:56Hello.
01:02:58How you doing?
01:03:00Mr. Rose called.
01:03:03I'm worried about you.
01:03:04He says I need a mental health break.
01:03:09No, ma, I think he's right.
01:03:11The nonsense is for white folks.
01:03:18Can I fix you something to eat?
01:03:21No, ma, I'm good.
01:03:24I'll run you a bath.
01:03:27I ain't sound like me.
01:03:28Mm-hmm.
01:03:34A letter came for you from Yale.
01:03:42You really applied to the same school as your father?
01:03:48Hmm.
01:03:51You gonna open it?
01:04:01You're so thin.
01:04:02You know, they send those rejection letters out by the thousands.
01:04:09There are plenty of other schools right here in New York.
01:04:12Okay.
01:04:17Mm-hmm.
01:04:25Mm-hmm.
01:05:25So what'd it say?
01:05:32I got in.
01:05:36I can't believe it, I got in.
01:05:39Let me see.
01:05:42Oh my God.
01:05:49What about Bae Bae?
01:05:57Well, what about helping me around here?
01:06:01It's all the way in Connecticut.
01:06:04You're not planning on accepting this, are you?
01:06:08Ma, I'm going.
01:06:10No, you're not.
01:06:13To Yale, of all places, really, Kalani?
01:06:17There are plenty of schools that are closer.
01:06:20Write them and tell them that you decided to take a school that's closer to your family.
01:06:25It's my decision, and I've made it.
01:06:28It's Yale, Ma.
01:06:31Not everybody gets an opportunity like this, but I did.
01:06:35Was Jacob gone?
01:06:38You just gonna leave?
01:06:43I'm not Jacob, Mom.
01:06:46I'm coming back.
01:06:47I got bills that I need help with every day, Kalani.
01:06:53I need help with Bae Bae.
01:06:56You got responsibilities here, okay?
01:06:58I'm not the mom.
01:06:59You're the mom.
01:07:01You are.
01:07:02I want to be a kid.
01:07:05Let me be a kid.
01:07:08Mom.
01:07:28Mom.
01:07:31Mom.
01:07:32Mom.
01:07:33Mom.
01:07:34Mom.
01:07:35Mom.
01:07:36Mom.
01:07:37Mom.
01:07:38Mom.
01:07:39Mom.
01:07:41Mom.
01:07:42Mom.
01:07:43Mom.
01:07:44Mom.
01:07:45Mom.
01:07:46Mom.
01:07:47Tom.
01:07:48Mom.
01:07:49Mom.
01:07:50Mom.
01:07:51Hey girl.
01:07:53Remember this dress?
01:07:54You never let me wear it.
01:07:55It's yours.
01:07:57It's yours.
01:07:59Are you serious?
01:08:02Can I have the shoes, too?
01:08:04And now you're pushing it.
01:08:09All right, take the shoes, girl.
01:08:14I have something from Jacob, too.
01:08:20I don't know why he was hiding it,
01:08:22but I'm glad I found it when I did.
01:08:26This is kind of intense.
01:08:36I think I'll look at it later.
01:08:39OK.
01:08:41In your time.
01:08:47Finally get the room to yourself.
01:08:50It's all I've ever wanted.
01:08:52But now I'm not so sure.
01:08:55Sure.
01:08:59You really have to go, Kalani.
01:09:02I want you to make good decisions.
01:09:06Smart choices.
01:09:09And those times where you don't have all the answers,
01:09:13I'm just a phone call away.
01:09:18Mom's going to have me doing everything around here.
01:09:20It's a lot, but it's not so bad.
01:09:25Just keep the room clean.
01:09:27Do what she asks of you.
01:09:29And just don't grow up too fast, you know?
01:09:33You'll be my age before you know it.
01:09:35But take care of mom.
01:09:37You're serious, baby.
01:09:39OK?
01:09:40Kalani?
01:09:41Can we cuddle tonight?
01:09:45Come on.
01:09:46Come on.
01:09:47Come on.
01:09:48Come on.
01:09:49Come on.
01:09:50But don't hog all the cover.
01:09:52You're hogging it already.
01:09:54Love you, Kalani.
01:09:55Love you, Kalani.
01:09:56Love you, baby.
01:09:57But don't hog all the cover.
01:10:00You're hogging it already.
01:10:05Love you, Kalani.
01:10:07Love you, baby.
01:10:28Yup.
01:10:30Alright, I'm coming down.
01:10:57Knock, knock, knock, knock.
01:11:05Bye, Mom.
01:11:14Didn't think I was gonna say goodbye, did you?
01:11:18I thought you were asleep.
01:11:21I haven't slept in weeks.
01:11:28I made you all your favorites.
01:11:33There's a sweet potato pie in that little bag.
01:11:36I'm saving that for Thanksgiving to make sure your butt comes home.
01:11:40Thanks, Mom.
01:11:45I am so proud of you.
01:11:49I know I haven't said that nearly as much as I should have, but...
01:11:53I really am proud of you.
01:11:55Thanks, Mom.
01:12:01Get one out of here.
01:12:02Get one out of here.
01:12:18It's a go catch.
01:12:20It goes pretty well with the sorry I missed Christmas with family Rolex.
01:12:24All I got was corporate.
01:12:26That's a family.
01:12:27Trade?
01:12:33Grand Central, right?
01:12:35Any chance we can make a quick pit stop?
01:12:36I need to stop by the school.
01:12:38Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in.
01:12:41Hey, Kalani.
01:12:43Do you have a minute?
01:12:45Oh.
01:12:46Oh.
01:12:47I know this is going to sound weird and uncomfortable and awkward, but do you remember that conversation we had after you?
01:12:48I know this is going to sound weird and uncomfortable and awkward, but do you remember that conversation we had after you?
01:12:52Jacob died about family?
01:12:53Mm-hmm.
01:12:54Well, I didn't go to my father's house.
01:12:55I know this is going to sound weird and uncomfortable and awkward, but do you remember that conversation we had after Jacob died about family?
01:13:09Mm-hmm.
01:13:10Well, I didn't go to my father's house. You were right. There is a difference between a father and a dad. So, I want you to have this.
01:13:30Jacob's house.
01:13:40Don't forget me.
01:13:42Oh. Impossible. All right. I'll be in the stands cheering you on.
01:13:51Thanks for everything.
01:13:55Yeah. Thank you.
01:14:00I'm too young to be tired. Too high to be higher. Too far to go further. But too strong to deter her. In my eyes, all I see is my fire. In my heart, all I see is my fire.
01:14:29In my heart, all I feel is desire. In my dreams, all I see is my life. Until I live what I see, I'll just strive.
01:14:46In my heart, all I see is my life. It's a dream. In my heart, all I see is my life. Until I see my life.
01:14:53The drive
01:14:58Giving up is not an option
01:15:13You don't see him like me often
01:15:19When in his mind I've chosen
01:15:24And I've made up my mind
01:15:29I'll just strive
01:15:31I'll strive
01:15:39I'll strive
01:15:45I'll just strive
01:15:53Hello?
01:15:55Hey, it's me
01:15:56Hey
01:15:57So you're on your way or?
01:16:00Yeah, I'm actually almost there
01:16:02What about you?
01:16:04Me too
01:16:05I didn't realize how far out of the city how it actually is
01:16:09And in the opposite direction of you
01:16:12I mean, there's always holidays
01:16:14That's true
01:16:16Are you going back for Thanksgiving?
01:16:22Yeah
01:16:23What about you?
01:16:25I'll be back
01:16:26You know, in the meantime, I'm definitely going to miss it
01:16:31But, uh, you know, especially you
01:16:34Okay
01:16:37But, yeah, I'll be back for Thanksgiving
01:16:41Probably should get going
01:16:48Because I'm just about to pull up in a second
01:16:51Okay
01:16:52All right, well, just remember, Kalani
01:16:56You deserve it
01:16:58Thanks, Terrence
01:17:01So do you
01:17:02Thanks
01:17:04Your parents must be so proud of you
01:17:14They are
01:17:18I won't stop
01:17:24I won't stop
01:17:26I'll strive
01:17:28When it gets hard
01:17:32I'll just strive
01:17:34When it takes
01:17:36I'll just strive
01:17:38No matter what
01:17:41No matter how
01:17:44And I know now is my time
01:17:56To

01:18:55You're gonna fall for sure
01:18:57And if you're all about your crew
