Clarice and I owe you.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah, no problem.
Thank you.
All right.
- All right.
- Lord, yes.
Oh, yeah.
- All right.
- Praise the Lord.
- Hallelujah.
- Hallelujah.
Hallelujah.
Jesus called out to the multitudes.
- He said, "Come to me.
- Come.
- All who are weary, come to me.
- Come to me.
- And I will give you rest."
- Yes, he will.
He said, "I will give you rest
if you come to me."
Amen.
So today, I want you to stand up
and come down to the altar.
Come down.
I always felt church
is like a hospital.
to get well.
Anybody out there
Or maybe you just need
just a little encouragement.
Jesus said...
Whenever I went to church,
I felt hope.
Come on, come to me.
- Yes.
- Amen.
Glory, hallelujah.
Girl, when I saw you,
hey, I almost went in.
I said my D was looking
like Miss America...
...up in here.
- Stop it.
I hope this don't mean you're about
to come back to work...
...and I gotta start fighting you
for clients.
- Well...
- Oh, you know, I meant to tell you.
Mr. Hastings forced me to take some
of your clients while you were gone.
- I would do the same thing to you.
- Okay.
But you better bring
your boxing gloves to work.
Girl, I can't fight.
I just got my nails done.
You crazy, come here, girl.
It was really good to see you folks
in church today.
Well, with what we've been through,
it's good to be seen.
The Lord's been good, bishop.
Clarice has got her trainer,
has her walking again...
...and Dave's been a real trouper.
No, no, you have.
We are here for you, 24l7.
Even if you just wanna come in
and talk.
- Come here.
- It is so good to see you.
- You too, love you.
- I love you too, girl.
- Okay.
- See you tomorrow.
I'm glad it ain't a street fight...
...because you know I don't wanna get
my face scratched up.
Hey, baby, how you doing?
- Okay, take care of my girl.
- Todd, let's go.
Come on, now,
you know I'm hungry.
I got to get to brunch.
You're walking all slow.
It's sickening, man.
He really disgusts me, dude.
- Hi, Julie.
- Yes?
I'm Brock Houseman.
I'm a friend of Dave Johnson's.
Yeah, I...
Has he mentioned me at all?
Yeah... No, well...
Bet you $ 10, he's gonna take
all the credit for fixing the car.
You fixed my car?
I don't know what to say.
- No, don't.
- Thank you. No, you don't understand.
Don't say anything. It's my pleasure.
Why are we even here?
Tell me why we're here.
We're part of the problem, man.
- No, we're accomplices.
- No, we're not, you are.
- All right.
- You drove, I'm not a part of this.
- Look at him.
- Look, look, look.
What? Why are you so happy?
- What?
- Nothing, nothing at all, Satan.
Satan? Hey, hey, l...
I can't help it. I am not ashamed.
- Get in the back.
- I have no problem getting in the back.
Better not tell Vanessa I was here.
So I think you can see...
neighborhood can be a home run.
Well, I like what I see, Clarice.
- It's actually quite impressive, really.
- Yeah, it has lots of potential.
Excuse me,
who will be taking the check?
- We will. Sure?
- No, no, no, I got it.
- Please, I insist.
- No, l...
- I insist.
- No, I got it.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah, I'm positive.
Go ahead, Dave.
- Thank you very much.
- You're so welcome.
It's nice to see you back up
on your feet now.
It is so good to be back.
I can only imagine.
Dave, tell me, I'm interested
in getting your perspective.
What's it like to have a wife
who is as progressive as Clarice?
Well, you know,
anything Clarice puts her mind to...
...is gonna be successful,
so you guys are in good hands.
Oh, impressive.
As a general contractor,
I thought you might be able...
...to weigh in
and share your perspectives...
...from a professional level
on the architectural flow chart...
...that she's presented to us today.
Well, see, with this particular project,
my approach...
in a way that...
Actually, the projects I work on
are a little bit smaller.
- About 3000 to 5000 square feet.
- Dave, Dave, don't be so...
He's just being modest. David owns
a very lucrative construction company.
- Really?
- Yes, sweetheart.
I was just letting them know
that the projects I normally...
You don't have to let everybody
know everything. It's okay.
- We're looking to get into...
- I was just telling the man...
- Don't tell the man everything.
- Maybe we could work together.
You might be able to be the general
contractor, do the finish-out work.
- Yeah.
- Perfect, I think that's a great idea.
Excuse me, sir, I'm sorry,
but your card has been declined.
You know what?
It's gotta be a mistake.
- We'll take care of it.
- No, no, no, I can...
Let me give you another credit card.
Did I bring it with me?
I brought the American Express.
- Do I have it?
- Think you got it.
- Clarice, please.
- No, I can do it.
I'll handle this.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Nice music.
Oh, and the food...
I've never been so humiliated
in all of my life.
- You realize how you made me look?
- How I made you look?
Well, if I embarrassed you in front
of Mr. Big-Time-Development-Head...
...that's too damn bad.
your big-ass mouth talking about...
Big-ass... It is irresponsible of you to
be over your limit on your credit card.
Do you mean to tell me
you don't have $200?
- I'm done.
- While you was recuperating...
...I was the only one bringing money
up into this house.
I was the one paying bills.
Overextended? It's because of you.
- This mortgage's about to bankrupt us.
- Oh, please, don't be so dramatic.
This mortgage
And as soon as I clean up
this little mess you made...
...we will be fine.
We're gonna take the insurance
money, put it down on an Escalade.
I just let you talk me into buying a 300.
We ain't buying no Escalade.
My clients don't ride in anything
but an Escalade, okay?
- They're gonna be walking, then.
- Hey, hey, hey, settle down.
I can hear y'all all the way upstairs.
And if I can hear you,
the whole neighborhood can hear you.
And you know what, Dave?
I've been waiting to tell you this
for a long time.
Maybe if you stop
spending so much time...
...with them little gangsters-in-training
down there...
...and spend more time in this house
handling your business...
...you wouldn't be having
You better stop talking
about my boys like that.
Now, look, I said what I got to say.
You know what, Mama?
I got this, I got this.
David, I have worked too hard
to get us to where we are...
...and hell will freeze over
before I let you take us backward...
- Know what you need to work on?
- What?
Work on not being in a fantasyland,
trying to be somebody that you not.
Hey, hey, hey, wait a minute.
- Don't talk to my daughter like that.
