Time to get up.
Hey.
Hmm. Mm, okay.
Are you up?
Yeah.
Okay.
- Good? - Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Oh, shut up!
You kidding!
This isn't just funny right now.
Stop fuckin' me!
Come on!
Oh, your skirt's...
Grandma!
It's so short.
Here you go.
I don't think I need it.
Well, just in case.
- Okay. - All right.
I love you.
Hey, Hailey, why is your mom so old?
- Yeah, where is your mom? - Mm-hmm.
Like, she didn't want you?
Hey, fat ass, can you hear us?
Borrow your mom's hearing aid!
Stop!
Ellen.
I know. I, uh...
Hi.
I had car trouble.
Mm, yeah.
- Yep. - Okay.
I don't wanna be an asshole, but that's not my problem.
It's an old car, dude.
You need to find a reliable car
to get you here on time,
or some other way to get you here on time.
On time. Got it.
Glad you got it.
Loud and clear.
I've got your class photo proofs here.
Take these to your parents, and if they wanna buy
copies, there's a form inside.
I look so fat.
No, you're not.
I look so ugly.
Hey, I need to return this record.
Do you have your receipt?
Why do you need to see my receipt?
All right, you know what? Without your receipt--
This is your bag.
Cool.
So, without a receipt, I can just give you store credit.
I bought it here yesterday,
and that boy down there rung me out.
Cool. So you can step aside, sir.
- No, no, no, no, no. - Excuse you.
You're gonna give me my money back
- right now! - I can help you, sir.
Can we get a manager up here please?
Hey, step aside, dude, step aside.
I'm so tired of dealing with this bitch.
What did you say?
Get the fuck out of here, you fucking redneck
son of a bitch! You get the fuck out of here!
Get the fuck out of here and don't ever come back!
You hear me?
Jesus!
Ellen!
Coming.
Hailey?
You didn't tell me you got your school pictures today.
Don't go through my backpack.
Sweetheart, I wish you wouldn't do this to yourself.
Okay, this might sting a bit.
You don't want it to get infected.
Ow.
- What the fuck, Ellen? - What? He called Dave "boy".
Did Dave hear that?
What the fuck does it matter?
We-- we have the right to refuse service to anyone.
I refuse to serve this asshole.
Ellen, I have the right to refuse service.
All you need to do is you just take their money
and you give them what they bought, that's it.
Fuck off, Barry.
Fuck off? Really? You're telling me to fuck off?
Yeah, I mean...
Get the fuck out of here! You're done.
Okay, thank you so much.
You're welcome! You're welcome so much!
Eat shit, Barry!
Jesus Christ!
You gotta get back on your meds, Ellen!
Hey! Get the fuck outta here!
Fuck you!
That's assault!
Just get out of the way!
What's wrong?
Uh, are you busy?
No.
Okay, um, I was just wondering if
you could loan me some money.
What for?
Get my car fixed. It broke down.
What's wrong with it?
I don't know. It just wouldn't start.
How'd you get to work?
I took the bus.
Well, is that something you can do for a while?
I don't know.
Do you not have the money to lend me?
Well, I don't know.
Hailey got her school pictures today,
so I need to buy those.
Okay.
Do you want one?
What do you mean do I want one? Why would I want one?
I don't know!
I'll send you as many as you want.
Did you tell her that I don't want one?
Why would I tell her that?
I don't-- I don't know.
I don't know what you tell her about me.
Well, I don't tell her anything.
Okay. All right. You know what?
Don't worry about it.
I'm not gonna ask you for anything else anymore.
Ellen? Ellen.
Help me, someone!
Ellen. Ellen, wh--
Grandma?
Where are you?
Grandma?
Ellen?
Grandma!
Ellen? Is that you?
Grandma.
Where'd you go? Where'd you go?
Grandma! What's wrong?
I can't find any of them.
Who?
Where are they? Where are they?
- I can't find-- - What's wrong?
- I can't find... - What's wrong?
Lenny or...
Been dead a long time.
No, get away from me. Get away.
Come in the house!
Grandma. Grandma! No! Grandma! Grandma!
Grandma! Somebody!
Hello?
Yeah.
What?
Hi, uh, I'm looking for Verna Sharpe.
She's my mother.
Hey.
Hi, Inez.
Oh. Oh.
Hey. Is she all right?
She's awake and talkin'.
- Hi. - Hey.
You okay?
Yeah, I'm good.
Good. Sure?
Yeah.
God, you're so big. You're so tall.
Gotten so tall.
Uh, well, should we...
I'm actually gonna, uh, stay out here.
You don't wanna see her?
I'm just gonna, uh, I'm just gonna get a drink.
I'm gonna come with you. Uh, she's in 120.
Okay.
Dr. Morris, dial 18...
Hi, Mama.
Hey.
Hi.
You're here.
Yeah.
How you feeling?
Uh, I feel fine, I'm just tired.
Want some water?
Well, sure. That'd be nice.
Okay.
Is Lenny here yet?
Well, you know, uh, Lenny passed long time ago.
I know that.
Oh, remember that time we went to Longview,
we went to the fair?
- Good God. - You remember that?
Yes, I remember that.
Oh, Mama got so mad at us for skipping church.
Oh, she sure could piss a hard stream.
Oh my goodness, I wanna go again.
Oh, I wanna go to the fair again this year.
- Can we? - Honey, uh...
Uh, they haven't had that in a long time.
But I wanna play the game.
That game with the balls that go up the thing.
- Bowlin'? - No.
The little balls.
- Skee-Ball? - Yes!
That game.
I wanna play-- I wanna play that game.
I'm gonna go talk to the doctor.
Thanks for comin'.
Mm-hmm.
I'm surprised they called Ellen.
I didn't think she'd come for love or money.
Well, maybe for money.
Oh, come on.
How you doin'?
Paging Dr. Bender. Paging Dr. Bender
I'm okay.
She's gonna be okay.
She was askin' about Uncle Lenny and Grandpa Walt.
Um...
Yeah, she's a little confused,
but she'll be all right.
How long will she be in here?
I don't know. Hopefully not too long.
All right, you can call if you need anything.
Bye.
What's wrong?
Nothin'. I'll be right in.
You might have to sit on someone's lap and call him
mister!
Now, Miss Nancy say she got up and run away.
Fuck you!
Steve Brook said he was gonna talk to the army recruiter
about joining the navy.
Army recruiter's for the army. Navy recruiter's for the navy.
Jesus Christ, boy.
You're not thinkin' about joinin', are you?
I don't know. Maybe.
Absolutely not.
They pay for school if you go for two years.
No.
I do not want you to join the army.
Army will make him a real man.
I do not want him to go to the army.
This is just what happens to women.
I need to go to the doctor.
No. No, of course not.
Turn around. Stop talkin' about it.
Just-- a lot of girls don't talk about these things.
How long will this last?
Oh, please, honey, stop bawlin'.
You're being hysterical. This is just silly.
Well, here you go.
I'm gonna be okay, Mom.
Oh, you're gonna be fine.
Baby Andrew's with Grandma Ruth in heaven.
She'll teach him to go fishing.
Oh, yeah.
And how to cheat at cards.
Hmm, Bobby and I can have another baby.
We can have a whole litter.
I want you to promise me somethin'.
Can you do that for me?
What?
Don't have another one.
Why not?
I don't think you should.
Eat your soup.
Are those yours?
I used to listen to these with my boyfriend Bobby.
Your grandmother,
she never liked him.
Took the door down, so we wouldn't
have any privacy.
Are you hungry?
- Yes. - Okay.
All right then, let's, uh,
find Grandma's keys.
Okay.
Hey.
I don't like Bobby.
He's a bad influence on her, and I bet he drinks.
I stole a couple of my dad's beers,
if you want some.
The next time he keeps Ellen out late,
I'm gonna call the police.
My mama always said some women just shouldn't have children.
If Ellen weren't so irresponsible,
Baby Andrew might not have come so early
and the doctors could've done somethin' for him.
Don't have another one.
Why not?
I don't think you should.
Haley!
She never used to let me watch stuff like this.
Really?
Yeah, she thought it would corrupt me.
Is this new?
- The couch? - Mm-hmm.
Think Grandpa picked it out.
Of course, he did.
Did you hate him?
Yeah.
Is that why me and Grandma always had to come see you
at Christmas?
Yeah.
How come you haven't come back till now?
I wasn't allowed back.
I mean, after he died.
Mm, I don't know.
Come on.
Late check-in?
Yeah, she overslept.
Sign this.
Okay.
Have a good day.
Is that Ellen Sharpe?
Do you remember me?
Mark Webb.
That's right.
How are you?
Oh, I'm-- yeah, I'm--
- All right? - Yeah.
Um, I'm just, um, dropping off my daughter.
I heard about your mom.
Um, how's she doin'?
She's gettin' better. She's gettin' feistier.
Yeah, she always was.
Yep.
Well, hey, listen, if you need anything,
you just let me know, okay?
All right.
And I, uh, I hope we see a lot-- more of you--
- Yep. - Yeah, going forward.
- All right. - Yeah.
All right, gotta run.
Yeah, or walk, whatever.
Okay.
These dark spots here, this is the damage caused
by your mother's stroke.
This is why she's having some issues with her memory.
Sometimes when this area is damaged,
patients can't form new memories or they experience amnesia.
When the temporal lobe is affected,
patients may have difficulty distinguishing, you know,
between what's a memory and what's reality.
Right.
Um--
she's also been acting differently.
- Um-- - How's she been acting?
Sh-- she's been a little more...
She's been aggressive.
- Okay. - You know?
You can see right here, there's been a little damage
to Verna's prefrontal cortex.
Okay, that's the part of the brain that controls
our emotions and impulse control.
Okay.
Um, how long before that can heal
or, you know, that can go away?
The symptoms might diminish somewhat, you know,
as Verna gets stronger, but given her age, Ellen,
I don't think we should anticipate a full recovery.
Uh...
So--
okay, so, um, what does that mean
going forward?
Well, does your mother live alone?
My daughter lives with her. I live in Austin.
Okay, uh, how old's your daughter?
Fo-- 15.
In that case, you're either gonna need an in-home
healthcare specialist or Verna's gonna need
to go to a nursing facility.
Either way, Ellen, she's going to need care around
the clock from here on out.
Do you understand?
Yeah. Uh...
Yeah, I-- I guess so.
Okay.
I wanted to ask you something.
I was just talking to the doctor
and she said that Mom's probably not gonna be able
to live alone anymore.
Oh, I was afraid of that.
Mm-hmm.
You can tell she's just not herself.
- Yeah. - Bless her heart.
Yeah.
Well, um, so she was saying either someone
has to live with her or she has to go
to a nursing home.
Oh. Mm-hmm.
Um,
I was wondering if you might consider taking care of her.
Oh, honey.
Oh, I wish I could, but that's a full-time job.
You need somebody young and strong for that.
Uh, if she was to fall in the bath or something,
I-- I don't think can get her up.
Mm-hmm.
I just don't think I have that in me anymore, baby.
Why don't you move in there and-- and look after her?
And take care of Haley, too.
Oh, you could be together again.
I think she'd like that.
I don't think I have that in me either.
What's all this?
I'm just doing some cleaning.
It's junk, so much junk.
Uh, Grandma won't like you throwin' out her stuff.
Well, Grandma's gonna have to get over that.
Hey, hang on.
Um, there's something that I wanna talk to you about.
Um...
So, uh, what do you think about comin' to live with me?
Why?
Well, I talked to Grandma's, um, doctor
and she said that she's probably not gonna be able
to take care of herself anymore.
Well, why not?
The stroke damaged her brain.
You know, like the-- the confusion,
the memory issues and stuff.
I can help her do things.
Not when you're at school, you can't.
She needs someone with her day and night, like a nurse,
you know?
Well, why can't you move in here?
Take care of both of us?
Because I can't-- I can't be here.
I can't-- I can't stay here.
My life was a livin' hell when I was here.
Your grandfather was schizophrenic.
You know that?
No.
Well, he was.
He'd walk around here mumblin' and
singin' stupid made-up shit,
just tinkering with those damn clocks.
And then something would flip a switch,
and he'd threaten to line us up and shoot us.
He'd sit in there in his chair all night,
scratchin' at the arms until they were threadbare
and just, I don't know, thinkin'...
worryin' about...
whatever was in his head.
He beat Lenny.
We'd hide from him in the barn.
I was just glad he shot himself before he shot one of us.
But his crazy and his--
his evil got a hold of us.
It's right here in these fuckin' walls.
It jumped off on Lenny and it jumped off on me.
I think it's-- it's startin' to get a hold of you.
I've seen your leg.
You clawed it bloody with your worryin'.
So, you should get out of her, you know,
while you got the chance.
Well, I like it here.
And I don't wanna leave Grandma.
I've got homework to do.
♪ When the sun shines down on me ♪
You okay?
♪ The dreary takes on... (INDISTINCT LYRICS)♪
Don't worry about it.
I hate him so much, I just can't wait
for him to die.
Do you think he'll go to Hell when he dies?
They'd probably let him run the show.
♪ So I go, I go ♪
I hope Mama does, too.
- Don't say that. - Why not?
She shouldn't let him do what he does.
Well, I can take it from here.
No, ma'am. We're all about full service here.
Oh, well then, let's go back to my room.
Mama!
What?
Come on, let's get you in there. All right.
I bet you're so excited to get home.
Well, not without you.
You got a way with your hands, I'll tell you.
Oh, that's what the missus says. Okay.
All right, Verna.
Oh, he's the best. Isn't he the cutest?
Oh, I have an idea.
Uh, uh, why don't you let Haley drive?
Ma, Haley's not old enough to drive.
Yes, she is. She's 16. She's gotta practice though.
Come on. Ellen, let her drive.
Okay.
You're doing great, sweetheart.
You could speed up a little bit.
Go ahead and piss, you fuckin' asshole!
Mama! Okay, all right, SHE'S--
- What? - All right, relax.
Ice cream! My treat. Who wants one?
- I do! - Oh, yeah.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Okay. Okay, good. Okay, good.
So, all right.
We're gonna keep practicin' that.
So, you're supposed to take these with food.
Oh my goodness. These are horse pills.
Yeah. I know.
What are they for?
Well, I don't...
They're just to make you feel better, Ma.
Well, I don't like that. I like to feel how I feel.
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
They're just for blood pressure or somethin', Ma.
I don't care.
My mama didn't like me comin' here.
So, Inez and I used to sneak out when we were little girls.
Really?
Mm-hmm.
Hmm.
It might not be so bad.
The factory?
Okay, well, where else are we supposed to work
in Shelby County?
Well, why do we have to stay in Shelby County?
Who's that?
Walter Sharpe. I cannot stand him.
I think he's handsome.
Pleased to meet you, pretty Verna.
Hmm. What you thinkin' about?
- Hmm? - Hmm.
Oh. Oh, being here just reminded me of Walter.
Hmm.
You ever miss him?
Hell no.
Mama!
Oh my goodness
Hold on, Grandma.
Wait a minute now.
- Let me help you. - No. I don't need any help, no.
I'm fine. I'm not an invalid.
Oh, jeez.
What's all this?
I'm just cleanin' up a bit.
It's just stuff from the attic.
No, these are my things.
What are you doing with my things?
It's just junk, Ma.
Not to me! It's not junk to me.
These are my personal belongings.
Oh my God.
You have no right to throw them away.
It's stuff you haven't seen in 30 years, Ma.
Well, so what?
That doesn't mean it doesn't mean anything to me!
So-- okay, okay.
Grandma.
- You okay? - No, I'm not okay.
How dare you, Ellen?
Haley, help me with these things and bring 'em inside the house.
No, hands off.
I was gonna help you bring 'em in the house, though.
No, I don't trust you.
Well, how dare you throw them away like they're nothin'.
They're nothin' to you, they're somethin' to me.
- I told you. - Yeah, you did.
Where do you want this stuff, Grandma?
Put it down here.
I need to look inside and see what's in there.
Okay, I gotta go to the store.
Um, just stay here and look after her.
I can hear you.
Good.
Just call me if you need anything.
I will.
I feel like a cigarette. You smoke, Ellen.
Why don't you get me some cigarettes?
You don't smoke, Ma.
I do now!
You don't smoke, Grandma.
It's all right.
Ellen. Hey.
Hey, Bobby.
I-- I heard about your mom. Sorry.
Yeah, thanks.
You look good though.
Um, stayin' in town for long?
I don't know. I gotta...
Yeah, no, right. Okay.
I, um, I'm stayin' out at my mom's old trailer
if you're ever in the neighborhood.
Sorry, sorry.
Walter says he's goin' to build houses on our land
and rent them out.
Then we'll have plenty of money.
I just wish he'd stop tinkering with those clocks and get to it.
See about.
Lord God almighty!
It's okay, baby. It's-- it's okay.
Ellen thought she'd play house with Haley's daddy,
but she ran him off with all her nonsense.
She showed up drunk tonight with that sweet baby girl.
Haley deserves better than to be raised like this.
Come on, get up. Get you to bed.
♪ He'll cherish that old rugged cross ♪
Where's Haley?
She's asleep. Don't worry. I'll take care of her.
That's my baby girl. That's my girl.
How long she gonna be here?
Just another day or two.
I will grab that nigger baby and pitch it off the cliff.
Oh!
And that's the last time I'm gonna hear you
say anything against that baby girl.
Do you hear me?
Uh--
She's gonna stay here.
- Mm. - And I'm gonna raise her.
If you so much as lay a hand on her--
Yeah.
I'm gonna kill you.
Are we clear on that?
Mom?
Ma, do you not smell this burning?
Why are you tryin' to cook something?
You nearly set the stove on fire.
Well, Haley was hungry, so I made her some dinner.
Haley! Haley, get in here!
What's wrong?
I told you to watch your grandmother,
not let her cook for you while you watch television.
She nearly caught the stove on fire!
No, I did not! And I don't need any help!
She didn't want any help.
Okay, it's time for you to step up.
I know you don't want to.
I know you wanna be Grandma's little baby forever,
but that time is over.
I need you to help around here.
Why are you talking like I'm not here?
I'm not!
Are you drunk?
Oh, you're drunk?
I am not drunk.
You smell like alcohol.
That's enough out of you! Go to your room! Now!
You don't get to tell me what to do.
You aren't my mother.
You didn't have to do that.
She shouldn't have said that to you.
I never hit her before.
Mama used to whip me all the time when I was little.
She'd tell me to go outside, and cut a switch,
and bring it to her.
And then she'd...
She'd cut the blood right out of my legs.
Did I whip you when you was little?
I can't remember.
A little, but I deserved it.
Oh.
I'm tired.
I best be going to bed.
Good night, baby girl.
I'm, uh, gonna see the army recruiter tomorrow.
Why?
I can't be here anymore.
If I stay, one of these days, I'm gonna blow his head off.
Or I'll blow off mine.
I don't want you to go.
You're gonna be okay.
You are.
When I get back,
I'm gonna get a place of my own,
and you can come and stay with me anytime you want.
Okay?
Here.
That is terrible.
Oh.
It is.
I wanna be alone.
She didn't mean to hit you.
Yes, she did.
No.
That's not her anymore.
I mean, like, when she had the stroke,
the old Grandma went away.
I mean, there's some of her left in there still, but
she's just different now.
I know that's not fair but that's how life is.
When Grandma was young, she thought she'd have
everything she wanted, I think.
But she was living' in a dream,
and one day she had to wake up, and go to work,
and make do with what life had given her.
I had big dreams, too, you know?
I wanted to be a singer.
Bet you didn't know that.
Yeah, you know I was sayin'
Bobby and I used to listen to those records all day.
We thought we'd move to Nashville and get a record deal.
Be big stars.
Why didn't you?
Well, I got pregnant,
so...
So, that was my fault.
Haley, no. No, no.
Hailey, listen to me.
I got pregnant a long time before I had you.
What happened to it?
He died when it was
just a little baby.
I got real depressed.
Bobby took off and, uh, things just didn't work out.
That's-- that's what I'm sayin'.
Sometimes things don't work out the way we think they will,
but we just have to pick ourselves up and keep goin'.
It didn't work out with me and your father either.
That's life.
Life won't give you anything,
but it'll take everything you have if you lay down and let it.
I didn't know any of that.
Um, when I had you, I wanted to keep you and raise you, but
I wasn't gonna be a very good mother to you,
so you're much better off with Grandma.
She gave you a life
that I couldn't have.
Hey, but she loves you so much
and I know she's sorry.
Just don't be mad at her.
You're her whole world.
Okay.
Guess what I heard?
What?
Alexis said she asked out Charlie Green, but he said no.
Good. I hate Alexis.
He says he's moving at the end of the year
and doesn't wanna get serious.
I mean, who would wanna get serious with her?
With those grades? Please.
They have my favorite cookies today.
Those look so good.
Damn, girl, don't your grandma feed you at home?
No, she don't get no milk from them saggy old titties.
Shut your mouth, you dumb bitch.
What did you just say?
Answer her. What the hell'd you just say?
I'm goin' to go get Ms. Anders.
Hello?
What, now you're not able to speak?
You didn't mind talkin' shit a second ago.
Where you goin', skank? We're not done yet.
Are you gonna apologize or do you need us
to beat your fat ass?
Oops. What you gonna do about it?
She ain't gonna do shit.
It don't look like it.
Oh, you fucking bitch!
Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
Send 'em in. Great. Thanks.
We have zero tolerance for--
Well, hello.
Oh, hello there.
Mrs. Sharpe, I am glad to see you're feeling better.
Oh, well, thank you.
Hello, Ellen.
- Hi. - Mr. Webb.
I wish you didn't have to come down here for this.
Oh, that's all right. What-- what's the trouble?
Haley got into a fight with some of the girls at lunch.
Oh, honey.
Are you all right?
I am afraid we have to suspend her.
- What? - What?
I didn't start it. They did.
They were saying-
Doesn't matter who started it, Haley.
No, no, no.
Uh, I don't think we'll have to do that.
I'm sorry?
You know, I used to babysit Mr. Webb when he was little.
- Yeah. - You remember that, Mark?
I do, I do. Yeah.
He used to come over and play with your Uncle Lenny.
Oh, Lenny.
He used to play with his little pecker all the time.
I couldn't get him to stop it.
In fact, I think he thought it was gonna get away from him,
didn't you?
Uh, Mrs. Sharpe...
What would the kids say about that?
I wonder.
Yeah, I do wonder.
Okay.
You go on home, Hailey, and we will see you on--
- Monday. Yeah. - Monday. Monday it is.
- All right. Thank you. - Mm-hmm.
It was a pleasure seeing you again.
Yes. It was, was it?
Come on.
Bitch.
Now, you two listen here.
I've dealt with bitches
like you my entire life, and you're no different
than your white trash parents and no good thieving
grandparents.
So, if either one of you ever look at or speak to
my granddaughter again, I'll put one foot up each of
your asses and break it off.
We clear on that?
What's wrong with you?
I never got in trouble before.
Good.
I don't want it to go on my school record
so I can't get into a good school.
That's not a thing.
What's not a thing?
There's no such thing as a school record.
- Yes, there is. - No, there's not.
They just-- they just-- they made that up to scare you.
- And it worked. - Sure, of course, yes.
I'm proud of you. I am.
I'm proud of you for standin' up for yourself.
That's what you gotta do in this world to make it.
You gotta be tough.
Can't let people roll over you.
They will, every chance they get.
Listen, I'm not mad at you. Grandma's not mad at you.
You did the right thing.
Um, how do I hang this thing up?
What'd she want?
Oh, Dottie Meredith died.
- Of what? - Cancer.
I hate that.
Yeah.
You're puttin' that thing out.
Yes, I'll put it out.
Hmm.
Ugh. Boring, boring, boring, boring.
Well, I found-- I found a pair of your shoes.
But I don't think I like this one.
Well, why not?
Well, it doesn't fit right.
Oh, you look so cute!
What in the... What are you wearing?
What do you mean? I think this looks fabulous.
Get-- get back in there. Get--
What? At least it's not boring.
- Come on. - Black is so boring.
We're gonna be late.
- Ma. Ma. - Oh, Ursula.
Ursula. Ursula.
- Mama? - What?
You're a little too up right now.
Do you need a pill?
Pill? What are you talkin' about?
I mean, just, like...
I like your necklace.
Inez! Hi! Saved us a seat!
Oh, hi.
- Hi, there. - How are you, sweetie?
- Hi, Inez. - Hi.
Hi, girls.
Well, how you doing, girl?
I'm all right.
Better than Dottie.
Shh.
Don't you tell me to shush.
I can say whatever the hell I want.
- Mom. - What?
Oh my God.
What? What?
Your dress is on backwards.
What are you talkin' about?
Why is it on backwards?
- You helped me with it. - Oh my Lord.
Oh, look at that, the zipper's in front.
- Okay. - Well, why'd you do that?
Okay, everyone here thinks you're crazy.
Well, who the hell cares?
Hey, hang on.
- What? - Your dress is on inside out.
Nuh-uh.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, yes, it is. It's inside out.
Are you kidding me?
Look, the seams are on the outside.
Okay. Come-- come on.
Oh! Where are we going?
The lunatics are going to fix their dresses.
Oh. Bye, Inez.
We will be back.
- Bye-bye. - Stop. Stop it.
Oh my God.
I don't know. What did you do?
Hi, grumpy.
How did you not see this before?
Who is that man?
I have no idea.
Ah, he looks so friendly.
- Um, hi. - Hi.
Um, can I...
Can I help you with something?
Uh, Jerome Hopper from Lonestar Liberty.
I'm here to do the appraisal on your home.
- Appraisal? - Oh gosh, was that today?
- I forgot. - Appraisal?
- I'm the homeowner. - You're the homeowner?
That's right. Mm-hmm.
Oh, I'm here to evaluate if the home can stand as collateral
for residency at Warrenwood Estates.
- Right. - I'm sorry what?
Um, we're gonna have to reschedule this. I'm--
- Oh. - I'm so sorry.
No trouble.
Give us a call when you'd like to set something up.
Ellen, what's goin' on?
What is the, uh, Warrenswoods Escapes?
It's a nursing home.
- What? - All right.
It's a real nice one, Mom. And--
I'm not goin' to a nursing home.
Mom, you can't take care of yourself anymore.
The hell I can't!
You almost burnt the house down. Right?
I-- I-- I did not!
Why can't we all stay here together?
Well, because she doesn't want to, sweetheart.
She doesn't want to stay here and take care of you.
She wants to run away like she always does,
'cause when the going gets tough, you know,
tough get goin'.
Fuck you.
Don't you...
Oh, no, you can kiss my whole entire ass.
You don't think I wouldn't be in a better place right now
if I hadn't grown up in that fuckin' madhouse?
I couldn't do anything about that.
You could've left him, Ma.
You didn't have to raise us in that shit.
And do what?
What was I supposed to do raisin' two kids on my own?
You need to come back to Earth, sweetheart.
The world didn't work like that back then.
You didn't even try, Ma.
You-- you wouldn't even try.
I got out, I left, and it was the best
decision I ever made.
I rest my case.
No, no, I didn't... I did not mean leaving you.
Okay, this whole thing with the-- with the nursing home,
it's what she needs.
You don't know that.
Yes, I do.
I don't want Grandma going to a nursin' home!
They'll take great care of her, sweetheart,
and you can come and live with me.
No! I don't wanna live with you! I wanna live with Grandma.
We talked about this. She can't take care of you.
Well, neither can you.
You can't even take care of yourself.
Hey, Bobby.
You want a beer?
Yes, I do.
Okay, be honest.
Mm-hmm.
Do I look as good as the last time you saw me?
Is that a no?
Um, you look all right.
- All right? - You look all right.
- Oh, shit. - Yeah.
Oh, shit.
You know, most days I gotta beat 'em off with a stick.
- Oh, yeah. - Mm, yeah.
All right, my ass.
Okay. How about me?
I mean, do I look as good as the last time you saw me?
Hmm, better.
Bullshit.
No, much better.
What about you and, um...
What's your baby girl's name again?
Haley.
- Haley. - Mm-hmm.
Right.
You and her daddy, nothin'?
I haven't seen him in years.
Verna ran him off, too.
Oh, no.
Verna--
Cut the shit, man. That's not why you ran off.
No, no shit.
- She hated me. - Well, yeah.
That was practically probably the only thing
her and old Tick Tock ever even agreed on.
Yeah, but that's not why you left.
Shit just got too real for you. You decided to make tracks.
No, it's not quite that simple.
Well, I was in the hospital with my wrist cut,
and you never came and saw me.
I didn't wanna see you like that.
Yeah, either that or you were too busy packin',
so you'd be gone by the time I got out.
What do you have to say about that?
I'm sorry.
What?
I'm sorry! Okay? I'm sorry.
What the fuck do you want me to say?
We were just dumb kids, all right?
Our kid died, and then you cut your wrist open,
and I got scared.
So, I'm sorry.
I fucked up, all right?
It wasn't the first time I ever fucked up,
it sure as shit wasn't the last!
My whole life is a fuck up, okay?
And if I could change it, I would.
Oh my God!
What?
You have a waterbed.
Yeah.
I don't care.
It's not here. It's not comin'.
Where-- where-- where is it? Where--
Grandma, what's wrong?
I don't know what's takin' the mail so long
to get here today.
I've been watchin', and watchin',
and it hasn't come here yet.
It's Sunday.
Is it? Are you sure?
Yes.
Where you goin'?
I gotta get a stick or two of wood for the fire.
No, you don't. You should sit down.
Yes, I do. I need to.
No, I-- I'll get the wood, okay?
I'll get it. Just sit down.
All right.
There you go.
Just throw it in.
It'll go straight to the North Pole.
In here?
Do you remember when you was little,
and you wrote a letter to Santa,
and I told you to throw it in the fire?
Come on, hurry up. Throw it in.
No, I-- I don't remember any of that.
Okay now, run outside and see if you can watch it goin' up
the chimney.
That was the year, Walter had to put a new roof on.
I couldn't barely get anything for you and Lenny.
I didn't know what to do. I...
Why don't you just go to school now?
Can I?
Somewhere close by.
Can I go to school, too?
Oh.
Yes, maybe.
How you gonna pay for it?
H-- how am I gonna pay for it?
Um, well, I don't know.
We can, um, sell some cows or, um,
maybe one of your trucks.
Honey, honey, honey.
Ain't nobody got no sense around here but me.
Lord God Almighty, not a damn lick.
Don't you worry. We'll take care of it, okay?
Army'd do you good.
I do not want him to go to the army.
Army'd make him a real man.
What do you know about it anyway?
You were hardly in the army before they kicked you out
for stealin' those tools.
Now, I've heard just about enough out of that smart mouth
of yours.
Stop.
Oh, you think you're a man? Huh?
- No! - Mama.
You wanna come at me like a man, boy?
You ain't don't look like no man to me.
Stop!
Get up!
Stop it! Oh, stop it, Walter!
Get up!
I love you, baby girl. You know that, don't you?
Yes, I do. I love you, too.
Hey.
Haven't done that in a while.
What you watchin'?
Fuck if I know.
Are you all right?
Yeah, no. I'm fine, I'm fine.
All right, well,
maybe I'll see you around sometime.
Sorry.
Yeah, hey, um, if you, um, stop by again,
maybe you could call first.
See, I-- I might have some stuff goin' on.
All right.
Yeah, I'm coming.

Remember how Dad used to sing that all the time
when he was having one of his spells?
It's funny if you think about it.
I never once saw that man in church,
and he was probably the most evil man I've ever met.
But he loved to sing gospel music.
Ow, Jesus.
Uh, I need this, like, to hold up my goddamn head.
You ever think of cutting back a little? Hmm?
Everything in moderation, you know?
Now, who was it that gave me my first sip?
Oh, uh, who was that?
Okay. All right, all right.
Yes, yes, that one was-- that one was me.
Mm-hmm.
You know, but you've always taken everything to the extreme.
Every little problem and you're, like, 0 to 100.
Pow.
Okay.
Can't wait to hear what my dead brother thinks
I'm blowing out of proportion.
Yeah. There's a lot of shit going on right now.
- Mm-hmm. - Mm-hmm.
But don't fixate on that.
Stay positive.
Look at the good stuff.
The good stuff?
- Yeah. - God. What?
What, uh, what is positive in your life right now, huh?
Well,
my life is over.
But yours isn't.
I can't find Grandma!
What?
I woke up and she wasn't here. I don't know where she is!
What if she's hurt?
What if something happened to her?
Okay, all right.
Why weren't you here? You should've been here!
Take a breath. Take a breath. Listen.
Don't get upset unless there's somethin' to be upset about.
All right? Okay.
Go call Inez and see if she's heard from her.
I'm-- I'm gonna drive around. Okay?
I'll look for her. We'll find her. Go call.
Hey. I found her, yeah.
She's fine. She's fine.
Okay. We'll be home soon.
Hey, what you doin' here?
Please don't be mad at me, Mama.
Are you feelin' all right?
You were right, Mama.
I'm not your mama.
You're my mama.
Some women aren't meant to have children.
I wasn't meant to.
I should never have had children.
Don't-- don't say that.
I did everything wrong.
I wasn't there for Ellen.
She ran off somewhere 'cause she hates me.
I...
I don't-- I don't hate you, Ma.
I should never have let Lenny join the army.
I don't think you could've stopped him.
I should've killed Walter instead of letting him torment
us.
Well, that's true.
And I let my little baby die.
That was a sign right there I wasn't supposed to be a mama.
That was my baby that died.
No. I had a baby girl, Renee.
Remember?
And she died before Lenny was born.
You had another baby?
And it died?
How come you never told me that?
She died in her sleep in her crib.
I couldn't help her.
I just don't get why you didn't tell me that.
Oh, Mama, I don't believe you.
I don't believe you.
It would helped me so much to know that you went through
the same damn thing.
I was so ashamed.
I failed her.
I couldn't protect her.
Where is your baby, Mama?
Lenny?
No, your little girl. Where is she now?
I buried her over where Mamaw Grace and Papaw Chester are
so they could look after her.
Oh, I hope they are.
I'm sure they are.
You wanna go see her?
Yeah.
Okay.
After losin' her, I...
I just couldn't lose another one.
I really tried to protect you and...
And Lenny.
I thought I was.
And then when we lost Lenny...
Oh.
I really thought I could protect Haley.
It's all right. You did all right.
We all do the best we can, right?
I'm so sorry.
Oh, it's okay.
It's okay.

I done some thinkin' and some praying,

Make what work?
Take care of your mama and Haley.
Well...
Well, so you could go home, if you want.
Thank you so much.
Wow!
I-- I really appreciate that.
Bingo.

Just after Haley gets home from school.
Well, you don't have to work around my schedule.
Ma.
All right.
I wish I wasn't such a burden.
You are not a burden, all right?
They've got root beer.
Oh, that sounds good.
Yeah, I'll take one.
Okay.
You've done such a good job with Haley, Ma.
I couldn't ha-- couldn't have done that.
Yes, you could.
Just takes practice.
Besides,
I never gave you a chance.
And if I can figure out how to be a mama, so can you.
I see all the hard work you're doin'.
I'm real proud of you.
Oh, here we are. Bring on the grub.

Yeah, yeah, I'm feeling fine. Just-- just tired is all.
- Night, Grandma. - Goodnight.
It was fun though.
Yeah.
You don't wanna go to bed, do you?
No.
Okay, good.
Maybe we should watch another movie.
I'm down if you're down.
I'm down.
It's nice to meet you.
