I just want you to be happy

But I'm always gonna worry about you.

I know, I know but

Jack's different he's caring.

You should see him he goes ever weekend

and volunteers at this youth center

The way he connects with these kids

he's dedicated.

Well no that sounds special but

you still need to be careful..

Cops do not have a good reputation

with woman.

Jack's not like that he's not

like those other cops.

When I'm with him

it's like being on cloud nine.

You know like the sun is always shining.

You sound like me when

I use to speak about your Grandfather.

I miss him so much not a day goes by I

don't think about him, what we shared..

When he past away a big part of me died

too, we have a love that will never end.

I pray you will find someone that will take

care of you like that.

Now if the universe has brought you two

together cherish every moment.

Alright

How much money does the man make?

Grandma! That's got nothing

to do with anything.

- Yes it does -Oh my God

don't give me that face

- Come on -Alright I have to go

But I will say I think Jack's the one.

everything is heading.

Well I have a good feeling about Jack.

Me too, We've been talking

a lot about our families

- Like where we come from, things like

that got me thinking about my dad

new relationship that's intense.

Do you have his correct information?

Do you know someone who does?

I do actually.

Yeah but why don't we try to

do it off book? To see how we do?

- Ok -Ok -Alright

So how you gonna play Blanch?

She's such a strong character,

she is quite vulnerable.

Can you play vulnerable?

Yes, but stop it, be serious

I wanna do well in this class..

I'm sorry I couldn't resist..

Well I think she's a gutsy woman.

But really it's more nuance than that.

She's still a little

bit helpless.

She's has to be more, more like her.

That's my mom.

- That's your mom?

- Yeah

- I can see the resemblance.

Yeah, she's probably the strongest woman

that ever lived.

I'm sorry what was I saying..

- Blanch

- Blanch that's right

Blanch needs to be that way.

Wanna know why?

Because Stanley is not a push over..

No Stanley is the king of the castle.

Until Blanch shows up.

- Like a wrecking ball.

But I think they're

attracted to one another.

- Oh you think.. -Yes

I do -are you sure?

- Are you kids rehearsing?

- Everything is ok Grandma..it's fine.

Jazz music films the room

My Grandma sees those things in you too.

Your Grandma's a wonderful woman.

I know what you mean

one simple stare speaks volumes!

- Oh I know I know

- You mind if I ask you something?

- Sure go for it.

What ever happen to your parents?

Well my Mom died during childbirth.

- Oh I'm Sorry bout that

- No it's ok don't worry about it.

But my Dad he didn't do very

well at all with it,

he blames me for the whole thing

and took off when I was 4
