Gracie s Choice
|
00:00:46 |
Mommy? |
00:01:03 |
Mommy? |
00:01:24 |
Police! |
00:01:26 |
- Jake, come on! |
00:01:28 |
Come on. Come on. |
00:01:33 |
What's going on? Oh, my God! |
00:01:39 |
What's going on? |
00:01:41 |
Oh, my God! We got kids in here! |
00:01:43 |
- Control that dog! |
00:01:46 |
- Where are you taking us? |
00:01:48 |
What was going on in that garage? |
00:01:50 |
- They was cooking something. |
00:01:53 |
Medicine. |
00:01:58 |
I had nothing to do with it! |
00:01:59 |
- Do you know who this is? |
00:02:03 |
- Call welfare for these kids. |
00:02:06 |
Look, we don't know |
00:02:09 |
My mom has nothing to do with them. |
00:02:12 |
- Are they gonna put us in jail, Mom? |
00:02:16 |
No, they're not gonna put us in jail. |
00:02:20 |
Please, I don't want my kids |
00:02:24 |
- You handle this. |
00:02:27 |
- We won't cause any trouble. |
00:02:30 |
Get those kids out of here now. Now. |
00:02:33 |
- Okay. |
00:02:35 |
Come on. Come on. |
00:02:37 |
No dog! No dog! |
00:02:44 |
- Get in the car! |
00:02:47 |
- Gracie, are you gonna help me or what? |
00:02:50 |
Down, boy, down. Lay down, boy. |
00:02:54 |
Gracie! |
00:02:56 |
- Get in the car! |
00:03:14 |
Come on, Spike. You can do it. |
00:03:17 |
Come on. Don't slow down. |
00:03:20 |
Faster, Spike! |
00:03:22 |
- Come on! Come on, Spike! |
00:03:25 |
Come on, boy! |
00:03:50 |
Okay, everybody duck. |
00:03:56 |
I thought we weren't stopping |
00:03:58 |
I am not in the mood. |
00:04:04 |
Let's make this good. |
00:04:06 |
It's just me and my daughter. |
00:04:10 |
I will have the money for you in the |
00:04:14 |
- No credit card? |
00:04:17 |
I'm lucky to have the clothes on my ba... |
00:04:21 |
They're my neighbor's. |
00:04:24 |
What exactly happened? |
00:04:27 |
This crapped-out guy next door |
00:04:31 |
Can you believe? |
00:04:33 |
Our grandmother says that she's coming |
00:04:37 |
How early will she be here? |
00:04:38 |
- Very early. |
00:04:41 |
What time do you get up? |
00:04:43 |
- Why? |
00:04:48 |
Cook me breakfast? |
00:04:50 |
Because you deserve it. |
00:04:52 |
Because you're a sensitive man. |
00:04:55 |
And not many people see that. |
00:04:59 |
- We do. |
00:05:08 |
I wish I had long hair like you. |
00:05:13 |
My hair used to be longer than this. |
00:05:20 |
When you were young |
00:05:22 |
Yeah, when I was young. |
00:05:25 |
Well, you still are young, Mom. |
00:05:27 |
- That's what I like to hear. |
00:05:32 |
Oh, Shamire. |
00:05:35 |
Shamire was the most beautiful horse |
00:05:40 |
- Arabian. |
00:05:42 |
Oh, honey, he was pale. |
00:05:45 |
- You rode bareback like an Indian. |
00:05:49 |
I rode him all night long. |
00:05:52 |
My hair flying out... |
00:05:55 |
...Shamire snorting, tossing his head. |
00:05:58 |
His hooves were galloping, |
00:06:03 |
You forgot the wolves. |
00:06:05 |
Oh, no. No, no, because the wolves, |
00:06:11 |
And the wind, it was a-blowing. |
00:06:15 |
- But you wasn't scared. |
00:06:19 |
It was just him and me |
00:06:22 |
Oh, man, my heels were boring |
00:06:25 |
I could feel every breath he took. |
00:06:29 |
We were galloping forever, |
00:06:35 |
And we didn't stop until we got |
00:06:39 |
And Grandma Lou had a cow, right? |
00:06:42 |
She had so many cows, |
00:06:50 |
Hey, hey. |
00:06:54 |
Killjoy. |
00:06:56 |
Hey, Mom, when do we |
00:06:59 |
Soon, baby. Soon. |
00:07:01 |
- Is Shamire still there? |
00:07:05 |
Shamire's dead like your grandpa. |
00:07:07 |
Shamire lives in the barn in Wyoming. |
00:07:11 |
We'd better get everybody to bed. |
00:07:13 |
Okay, okay. One, four, three. |
00:07:17 |
- One. |
00:07:19 |
- Four. |
00:07:21 |
- Three. |
00:07:49 |
All right, come on. Come on. |
00:07:51 |
Are we blowing the joint? |
00:07:53 |
Kids, towels, towels. Come on. |
00:07:56 |
Got it? |
00:07:58 |
Ready to put it in? Okay, ready? |
00:08:00 |
Count of three. One, two, three. |
00:08:04 |
Go, go, go. |
00:08:11 |
Hey, hey! Hey, you! |
00:08:14 |
Hey! |
00:08:28 |
Grandma Lou! Grandma Lou! |
00:08:31 |
Looks like we've got some |
00:08:35 |
- Grandma! |
00:08:38 |
Hi, Grandma. |
00:08:40 |
Oh, yeah! |
00:08:42 |
- Guys, these are for Grandma's guests. |
00:08:47 |
...because I've got my monthly |
00:08:50 |
- Put that one back. |
00:08:53 |
- They're for the Bible ladies. |
00:08:56 |
Don't put it back. Eat it now |
00:08:59 |
Nobody wants to touch food |
00:09:02 |
- Oh, there's sandwiches! |
00:09:08 |
Ladies, go right on with your meeting. |
00:09:14 |
When's the last time |
00:09:19 |
These kids have been through hell... |
00:09:22 |
...but I have so learned my lesson. |
00:09:28 |
- I mean it. |
00:09:30 |
All right. I'm gonna do it. |
00:09:33 |
I'm gonna help you. God help me. |
00:09:37 |
But you can't stay here. No, no. |
00:09:40 |
Yes, I'll help you find a place, |
00:09:47 |
- Hi, Rose. |
00:09:49 |
Hi. |
00:09:56 |
This is the last of my dishes. |
00:09:59 |
Of course, you never |
00:10:02 |
Look what we found by the canal. |
00:10:04 |
Mine is Shadow, |
00:10:06 |
Look at them. |
00:10:09 |
Well, now, that's all you need |
00:10:12 |
I mean, how do you know |
00:10:15 |
Can we keep them? |
00:10:16 |
Of course you can keep them. |
00:10:19 |
They look hungry. |
00:10:23 |
And pick me up some hamburger... |
00:10:25 |
...and a can of tomatoes and some paprika. |
00:10:30 |
- Will you make Rudy's Hungarian goulash? |
00:10:34 |
- Yes. |
00:10:38 |
Who's Rudy? |
00:10:41 |
Mama... |
00:10:45 |
...Rudy was a Hungarian friend of mine. |
00:10:48 |
Only now he's in prison. |
00:10:53 |
Which commandment did he break, |
00:11:00 |
What's a commandment? |
00:11:02 |
"What's a commandment?" |
00:11:04 |
- The Ten Commandments... |
00:11:09 |
Don't you know anything? |
00:11:10 |
I know you never take the kids to church, |
00:11:16 |
Tomorrow! |
00:11:19 |
Damn, do I have to write it in blood? |
00:11:30 |
Well, don't just stand there gawking. |
00:11:33 |
- And the stuff for the goulash? |
00:11:37 |
Yeah. Your mom's gonna be too busy |
00:11:42 |
Would you give them some money |
00:11:52 |
"Rom... Romeo, Romeo... |
00:11:56 |
...wherefore art thou, Romeo?" |
00:12:01 |
"Wherefore art thou, Romeo?" |
00:12:05 |
She's not asking where he is. |
00:12:09 |
"That which we call a rose |
00:12:16 |
Go on. |
00:12:19 |
"Deny thy father... |
00:12:22 |
...and refuse thy name... |
00:12:25 |
...or if thy while..." |
00:12:29 |
Wilt! |
00:12:31 |
"Or, if thou wilt not, |
00:12:36 |
...and I'll no longer be a Capulet." |
00:12:42 |
What's your name again? |
00:12:44 |
- Gracie Thompson. |
00:12:48 |
You ever heard of Romeo and Juliet? |
00:12:51 |
I know what a Romeo is. |
00:12:55 |
But the story, the play, |
00:12:59 |
...Shakespeare, star-crossed lovers, |
00:13:08 |
They're from two different families |
00:13:11 |
She's willing to give up everything |
00:13:14 |
Impetuous, passionate! |
00:13:18 |
Do you kids have any passion? |
00:13:25 |
Thank you, Mr. Bodell. |
00:13:29 |
- Are you okay? |
00:13:31 |
So tell me about it. |
00:13:34 |
- Rose. |
00:13:37 |
- Hi, Gracie. |
00:13:39 |
How are you? |
00:13:41 |
- How you doing? |
00:13:44 |
Hey, honey. |
00:13:48 |
What do you think? |
00:13:50 |
I think that's my T-shirt, |
00:13:53 |
- Look at the scale Mom got for us. |
00:13:57 |
The police are gonna be back. |
00:13:59 |
Do you think my boobs |
00:14:03 |
Oh, come on. |
00:14:05 |
- I paid for it, didn't I? |
00:14:07 |
I want you to meet somebody. |
00:14:09 |
Ray, I want you to come out |
00:14:13 |
- Mom! |
00:14:16 |
Anyway, people do think |
00:14:19 |
- You didn't tell me Gracie was so cute. |
00:14:22 |
- How you doing? |
00:14:26 |
Gracie. She's always been jealous of me. |
00:14:31 |
- She should be. |
00:14:46 |
Gracie, you awake? |
00:14:50 |
I am now. |
00:14:52 |
What do you want? |
00:14:54 |
I'm sorry. Can I talk to you outside |
00:15:06 |
- What? |
00:15:09 |
I'm not gonna bite. |
00:15:12 |
Where's my mom? |
00:15:15 |
She passed out in the bedroom. |
00:15:19 |
Come over here. I just wanna talk. |
00:15:26 |
Kids have had a hard time. |
00:15:31 |
Your mom, she drinks too much. |
00:15:37 |
I just... I just wanna be a friend. |
00:15:41 |
I'm gonna be living here now. |
00:15:44 |
Good luck. |
00:15:49 |
You're a smart girl. |
00:15:51 |
The whole bunch depends on you. |
00:15:54 |
I'm sorry. Did I scare you? |
00:15:58 |
Hey, little girl, I know. |
00:16:00 |
I know how hard it is for you. |
00:16:04 |
There's no one, no one to help you... |
00:16:07 |
...love you... |
00:16:10 |
...there's no one to touch you. |
00:16:13 |
Hey. |
00:16:22 |
Oh, yeah, you are one nice, little... |
00:16:28 |
You bitch. |
00:16:31 |
You like that, huh? |
00:16:36 |
You like it rough. |
00:16:43 |
- What is going on? |
00:16:45 |
- You liar! |
00:16:49 |
- Look at my face! |
00:16:52 |
- I can't believe you're defending him. |
00:16:55 |
- I am sorry she got out of control. |
00:17:00 |
- He could have broke my jaw, Mom. |
00:17:05 |
He's the one. |
00:17:08 |
The one what? |
00:17:09 |
Gracie, I'm young. I like him. |
00:17:15 |
I really like this one a lot. |
00:17:19 |
Please. |
00:17:36 |
What happened to you? |
00:17:39 |
Wait a minute. |
00:17:45 |
Who hit you? |
00:17:47 |
- I walked into a door. |
00:17:50 |
Tell me what happened, |
00:17:53 |
What difference does it make? |
00:17:57 |
- Where do you come from? |
00:17:59 |
- Where "all over"? |
00:18:02 |
Campgrounds, trailer parks, motels. |
00:18:05 |
I've been to so many schools, |
00:18:11 |
- Did you ever tell anybody about this? |
00:18:16 |
I'm gonna have to report this. |
00:18:19 |
Why? |
00:18:31 |
Oh, hey. Hi, girls. |
00:18:35 |
Where are the boys? |
00:18:38 |
- I got doughnuts. Who wants them? |
00:18:42 |
Yeah, yeah. |
00:18:45 |
We're gonna get fat. |
00:18:48 |
- Mom, you're way skinny. |
00:18:51 |
- No. |
00:18:53 |
Turn around. Oh, that's cute. |
00:18:56 |
- I got jelly for you. |
00:18:59 |
We had nothing but cereal. |
00:19:03 |
But I don't... I don't deserve a life? |
00:19:07 |
You kids on my tail all the time. |
00:19:31 |
Thanks. |
00:19:44 |
Shadow, you meanie. You bit my finger. |
00:19:47 |
Do you think mom will let us keep them? |
00:19:49 |
It won't be like Spike, huh? |
00:19:52 |
- Remember that dog that my dad got us? |
00:19:56 |
Remember how he used to kick it? |
00:20:04 |
Come on. Kids, kids, get up! Get up! |
00:20:07 |
- Come on, cops. |
00:20:10 |
Get the kids! The cops are here! |
00:20:12 |
You guys, get your stuff together! |
00:20:15 |
Gracie, come on! Yo, yo, yo. |
00:20:17 |
You gotta help me with these kids, man! |
00:20:19 |
- The hell with the kids. I'm out of here! |
00:20:30 |
You have the right to remain silent. |
00:20:33 |
- Come on. |
00:20:36 |
Children can't stay with parents |
00:20:38 |
Please don't take my kids! |
00:20:42 |
I swear to you, |
00:20:46 |
No! Are they gonna kill Mom? |
00:20:49 |
- No, baby, they're not. She'll be back. |
00:20:53 |
Please, Gracie! |
00:20:58 |
Okay, boys, Ryan and Jonny |
00:21:01 |
- Wait. |
00:21:04 |
No, no, you can't separate us. |
00:21:06 |
Just for a few days |
00:21:09 |
- Gracie, do something! |
00:21:14 |
- Ladies, don't make this worse than it is! |
00:21:18 |
- You should have kept your mouth shut! |
00:21:22 |
- No! |
00:21:29 |
He's deathly afraid |
00:21:33 |
- Please call my grandma! |
00:21:37 |
Please call my grandmother! |
00:21:39 |
- Don't take him! No, no! |
00:21:43 |
Let me go! Open the door! |
00:21:48 |
Stop it! |
00:21:49 |
Open the door! |
00:21:58 |
You can't do this! |
00:22:24 |
Get undressed. |
00:22:26 |
I put all your stuff in paper bags. You get |
00:22:31 |
This is for your hair. Lice. |
00:22:33 |
- We don't have lice. |
00:22:36 |
Scrub, or I'm gonna do it for you. |
00:22:39 |
Did you see her eyes? |
00:22:42 |
At least this smells better |
00:22:46 |
Yeah, roach spray. |
00:22:48 |
How many kids in this world |
00:22:51 |
It probably got into our genes, |
00:22:55 |
Can you believe Mom's in jail? |
00:22:59 |
- That'll show her, huh? |
00:23:03 |
- You could say that again. |
00:23:07 |
Wake time is 6 a.m. Breakfast is at 7. |
00:23:12 |
You have to be washed, |
00:23:15 |
You'll get your assignments for chores: |
00:23:19 |
- Okay, you're in here. Not you. |
00:23:23 |
- We wanna be together. |
00:23:26 |
We can sleep in the same bed. |
00:23:27 |
- Don't give me a hard time. |
00:23:31 |
- No, I wanna... |
00:23:32 |
What are you doing? |
00:23:35 |
- Let go! |
00:23:37 |
- I just wanna... |
00:23:41 |
Don't hurt her! |
00:23:45 |
Move it! |
00:23:47 |
Come on! Come on! |
00:23:50 |
- Are you okay? |
00:23:54 |
- And they kept the lights on all night. |
00:23:57 |
So cold in her little, padded cell. |
00:23:59 |
She's so special, she got |
00:24:03 |
I don't think I can handle this, Gracie. |
00:24:06 |
- She doesn't think she can handle this. |
00:24:09 |
- Three. Bigger! Come on, girls. |
00:24:11 |
What about the boys? Do you think |
00:24:15 |
- Poor little Robbie. |
00:24:19 |
- Who's he? |
00:24:22 |
Better toughen up, little baby. |
00:24:24 |
- Want your diaper changed, stupid? |
00:24:27 |
- Hey, Rose, don't. |
00:24:31 |
- I heard she's a hooker. |
00:24:35 |
Fight! |
00:24:39 |
Don't touch her! |
00:24:41 |
Stop it! |
00:24:43 |
Gracie, get off her! |
00:24:48 |
Where are my brothers? |
00:24:53 |
I demand to call my grandmother! |
00:25:00 |
Gram. |
00:25:03 |
- Oh, my little Rose. Grace. Girls. |
00:25:08 |
Well, honey, l... |
00:25:11 |
Nobody ever called me. |
00:25:13 |
Every time I called and called, |
00:25:16 |
- Oh, my God. All kinds of recordings. |
00:25:21 |
All of you are going to stay with me |
00:25:24 |
We'll see how it works out. |
00:25:26 |
Let us try it for a while, |
00:25:29 |
- Get in the car where it's warm. |
00:25:34 |
Grandma Lou, can we please |
00:25:37 |
Well, why not? |
00:25:40 |
Shadow? |
00:25:43 |
Here, kitties. |
00:25:45 |
Your mother's still in jail. |
00:25:48 |
So, what happens when she gets out? |
00:25:51 |
She is not allowed to live with you kids. |
00:25:54 |
She can't even see you, |
00:25:58 |
Else I don't get to keep you. |
00:26:00 |
I can't get the money to keep you. |
00:26:03 |
Grace, Grandma's got to have some money |
00:26:06 |
I got to have the help. |
00:26:10 |
I can't keep cleaning up her messes. |
00:26:14 |
My heart just won't take it. |
00:26:19 |
I hate my mother for doing this. |
00:26:23 |
- No. |
00:26:26 |
- Shadow? |
00:26:30 |
- They're not here. |
00:26:36 |
We'll get new ones. |
00:26:39 |
Gracie! |
00:26:42 |
- Gracie! |
00:26:44 |
- I swear you've grown. |
00:26:47 |
- I had no idea where to phone. |
00:26:51 |
- Of course not, Robbie. |
00:26:54 |
- Does Grandma have any hair gel? |
00:26:57 |
Come on! |
00:26:58 |
- Hi, Grandma. |
00:27:00 |
Oh, it's good to see you. |
00:27:06 |
These kids are driving me nuts. Every time |
00:27:10 |
Yeah, well, Robbie's fine |
00:27:14 |
This morning I went in the bathroom, |
00:27:17 |
We have to keep telling them that we're |
00:27:21 |
Yeah, which means more commandments. |
00:27:24 |
"Thou shalt go to school." |
00:27:27 |
I hate school. |
00:27:32 |
Gracie. |
00:27:36 |
Okay, okay. |
00:27:41 |
- Don't take all the covers. |
00:27:44 |
I won't. |
00:27:46 |
Gracie. |
00:27:48 |
We don't wanna be alone in there. |
00:27:52 |
Just for tonight. |
00:27:54 |
All right. Just be quiet. |
00:28:00 |
- Grandma says we gotta say our prayers. |
00:28:04 |
Now I lay me down to sleep |
00:28:08 |
I pray the Lord my soul to keep |
00:28:11 |
If I should die before... |
00:28:15 |
- You look like a bunch of little animals. |
00:28:18 |
Boys do not sleep with girls! |
00:28:22 |
Is that one of those commandments? |
00:28:24 |
You bet it is. |
00:28:26 |
And you get out of this bed right now. |
00:28:28 |
You go back to your room, |
00:29:04 |
- Shouldn't you be in class? |
00:29:07 |
My name is not "lady." It's Mrs. Thurston. |
00:29:12 |
...and you will help me |
00:29:23 |
- I'm gonna need to talk to your parents. |
00:29:26 |
- Lf you find my dad, I'd love to meet him. |
00:29:31 |
- Now, what about your mother? |
00:29:34 |
- Who's the head of the household? |
00:29:37 |
- Who buys the food and prepares the meals? |
00:29:42 |
You gotta do something |
00:29:45 |
I don't know how you made it |
00:29:48 |
I don't know what they discuss in class. |
00:29:50 |
Thing is, your IQ tests |
00:29:54 |
You're just behind, but you |
00:29:58 |
...like your others. |
00:30:01 |
I don't want to hear |
00:30:03 |
It's not ditching. |
00:30:06 |
Gracie, making money is not |
00:30:11 |
Now, look, I can't help you at home, |
00:30:16 |
I am doing the best that I can. |
00:30:18 |
And I think you can do a lot better |
00:30:22 |
Can I be excused? |
00:30:25 |
- I have to pick up my brother. |
00:30:31 |
But listen, my friend, |
00:30:47 |
All right, Wolverines. |
00:30:49 |
She thinks she's so hot. |
00:30:52 |
Ladies, on your marks. |
00:31:00 |
Get set. |
00:31:24 |
So how'd you learn to run so fast? |
00:31:27 |
- Running from truant officers, I guess. |
00:31:32 |
Yeah, the coach asked me... |
00:31:35 |
...but I don't have time for this. |
00:31:38 |
Yo, Tommy, out here! |
00:31:45 |
- It's only her first week here. |
00:31:48 |
My fault. |
00:31:51 |
She has had plenty of days off |
00:31:55 |
Did you help Grandma with supper? |
00:31:56 |
And the boys? |
00:31:59 |
Jonny was working |
00:32:02 |
He was using toilet-paper rolls |
00:32:04 |
He's making a model of Acropolis. |
00:32:08 |
Miss, could I get a burger |
00:32:11 |
If you can pay for it. |
00:32:13 |
Please. Please, please, Gracie. |
00:32:17 |
- I forgot my wallet. |
00:32:20 |
I'll pay, but don't come again |
00:32:22 |
- Please. I gotta be able to depend on you. |
00:32:37 |
Hey. |
00:32:39 |
You going home? |
00:32:42 |
- Yeah. |
00:32:45 |
No. It's not far. |
00:32:48 |
And I take the bus. |
00:33:05 |
My car broke down. |
00:33:08 |
Guess we're going |
00:33:15 |
And don't laugh. |
00:33:18 |
- Who's laughing? |
00:33:20 |
She's always asking me crazy stuff. |
00:33:25 |
So, what about you? |
00:33:28 |
- You're not giving me a chance. |
00:33:33 |
- I make you nervous? |
00:33:36 |
Okay, it's your turn. |
00:33:40 |
You asked for it. |
00:33:43 |
This is my house... |
00:33:44 |
...and I live here with my three |
00:33:48 |
We're all bastards. |
00:33:50 |
We have different last names, different |
00:33:54 |
Our mother's a drug addict, |
00:33:57 |
We live with my grandmother |
00:34:00 |
All my brothers have ADD. |
00:34:03 |
Attention-deficit hyperactive disorder. |
00:34:06 |
Robbie, the youngest, who's a little |
00:34:10 |
- Okay, is that enough? |
00:34:15 |
- I mean, I'm sorry. |
00:34:18 |
- I'm not. |
00:34:23 |
I just wanna know you. |
00:34:26 |
- Come here. |
00:34:28 |
I don't have time for this. |
00:34:30 |
How about I give you a ride tomorrow? |
00:34:32 |
- I told you, I take the bus. |
00:34:35 |
So tomorrow we'll both take the bus. |
00:34:42 |
What? |
00:34:44 |
You are knocked up, |
00:34:47 |
- I knew what you'd say. |
00:34:50 |
- How are you gonna raise a kid? |
00:34:53 |
You can't quit school. Mom quit, |
00:34:56 |
I hate school. |
00:34:57 |
So you're gonna live with Ricky |
00:35:00 |
Clean houses for other people? |
00:35:02 |
Stay here. |
00:35:05 |
- Oh, Lord. |
00:35:07 |
- Rose, Ricky said to hurry it up. |
00:35:12 |
- Rosie, make sure that boy marries you. |
00:35:17 |
We've never been separated. |
00:35:20 |
Hurry it up, babe. |
00:35:21 |
I am saying goodbye to my sister, |
00:35:30 |
Look, I know what you're thinking. |
00:35:34 |
But, Gracie, I love him. |
00:35:39 |
I can't do this without you. |
00:35:42 |
It had to happen someday. |
00:35:46 |
I'm not like you. |
00:35:48 |
You can do anything. |
00:35:54 |
Just take care of yourself, huh? |
00:36:04 |
I'll call you. |
00:36:19 |
Excuse me, ma'am. |
00:36:22 |
Could you help me with my computer? |
00:36:26 |
Go away. |
00:36:29 |
So how's it going? |
00:36:31 |
This is right up my alley. |
00:36:33 |
The Black Plague was caused by bacteria |
00:36:37 |
- I know about rats. |
00:36:41 |
Why don't you come over there |
00:36:45 |
- lf you don't, then... |
00:36:49 |
Something's wrong. I don't know... |
00:36:56 |
You have to clear some space. |
00:37:01 |
- Just press "escape." |
00:37:05 |
- Gracie, that report is due tomorrow. |
00:37:10 |
Yes, you are. |
00:37:14 |
Jeez. |
00:37:18 |
She's not that bad. |
00:37:20 |
I mean, she's on my case a lot, |
00:37:24 |
- You know, she cares. |
00:37:27 |
Why don't you invite me to dinner? |
00:37:31 |
It'd be fun. |
00:37:33 |
I won't bite. |
00:37:35 |
- Okay. |
00:37:37 |
- All right. |
00:37:40 |
Robbie... |
00:37:42 |
...we have to bless the food first. |
00:37:45 |
- What do we say? |
00:37:50 |
Now I lay me down to sleep |
00:37:55 |
If I should die before l... |
00:37:57 |
Your grandma means |
00:37:59 |
- Thank you. |
00:38:02 |
Yes, you do. Good food, good meat, |
00:38:09 |
- One, four, three! |
00:38:12 |
- Mom! |
00:38:14 |
Monkeys! |
00:38:16 |
Where you been, Mom? |
00:38:18 |
Oh, oh, hello, my monkeys! |
00:38:22 |
- Did you enjoy your trip? |
00:38:25 |
- Where you went since I've been gone. |
00:38:29 |
Hi, Mama. |
00:38:32 |
- These kids been good to you? |
00:38:35 |
Oh, that's good. That's good. |
00:38:39 |
- Franco, everybody. |
00:38:42 |
And who is this? |
00:38:44 |
You sure don't look like one of mine. |
00:38:47 |
This is my friend Tommy. |
00:38:49 |
Tommy. Well, I'll be. |
00:38:53 |
Mom, would you mind if I talked |
00:38:57 |
Not at all, baby. |
00:38:58 |
What you eating? |
00:39:00 |
Lettuce. Franco, make yourself at home. |
00:39:05 |
I'll be back. |
00:39:08 |
Would you care to join us? |
00:39:10 |
- I didn't know you had a boyfriend. |
00:39:15 |
Whatever he is... |
00:39:17 |
...he sure is hot. |
00:39:20 |
You can't stay here. |
00:39:22 |
What gives you the right |
00:39:25 |
Because I don't want another trip |
00:39:28 |
And that's exactly what's gonna happen... |
00:39:31 |
...if you and your friend |
00:39:37 |
I just got out of jail, Gracie. |
00:39:42 |
You don't wanna give me |
00:39:48 |
You don't wanna give |
00:40:01 |
Thank you. |
00:40:04 |
I missed you. |
00:40:07 |
Look, we're doing really good right now. |
00:40:17 |
I am not gonna mess this up. |
00:40:24 |
I am not gonna mess this up. |
00:40:48 |
- He's got the big rig there. |
00:40:53 |
- Well, hey there, Tommy. |
00:40:56 |
- Where are you two off to? |
00:40:59 |
Oh, yeah, and we weren't invited? |
00:41:03 |
Hi. I'm as ready as I'll ever be. |
00:41:05 |
You could use a little makeup |
00:41:08 |
- You look great. |
00:41:10 |
- Okay, well, good night. |
00:41:14 |
Try doing something I might do. |
00:41:18 |
Bye, Mrs. Larson. |
00:41:29 |
- How many people live here? |
00:41:32 |
Yes, it is. |
00:41:34 |
Tommy, oh, my God, my entire house |
00:41:38 |
- Do you think I need makeup? |
00:41:41 |
Tommy, they are not gonna like me. |
00:41:44 |
Listen, I like you. |
00:41:52 |
They're gonna love you. Come on. |
00:41:56 |
Mom, Dad! |
00:42:00 |
So Tommy tells me |
00:42:02 |
- And a sister. |
00:42:04 |
- Younger. |
00:42:06 |
- She was a sophomore. |
00:42:09 |
I'm just interested, Stan, |
00:42:15 |
Her name is Rose, and she's getting married |
00:42:19 |
Oh, goodness. |
00:42:22 |
I hope that's not giving |
00:42:25 |
- Well, I thought you wanted a grandbaby. |
00:42:31 |
Where's the powder room? |
00:42:33 |
The bathroom. |
00:42:36 |
- Tommy, show Gracie. |
00:42:38 |
- Gracie, how do you like your burgers? |
00:43:14 |
Powder room? |
00:43:40 |
I keep telling your son |
00:43:43 |
...and make some decisions. |
00:43:45 |
- What colleges are you looking into? |
00:43:50 |
Well, you'd better. |
00:43:57 |
Oh, are you still hungry? |
00:43:59 |
If no one's gonna eat them, |
00:44:02 |
- My grandma has a microwave... |
00:44:05 |
- We have some buns. We got some cookies. |
00:44:11 |
- They're just little children. |
00:44:15 |
Rowena, I have asked you |
00:44:23 |
Oh, okay. |
00:44:26 |
That Franco fellow is upstairs |
00:44:31 |
...and little Robbie told me |
00:44:36 |
...doing exercises with him... |
00:44:38 |
...and I know them exercises. |
00:44:42 |
What am I supposed to do? |
00:44:46 |
Well, I'm sorry, though. |
00:44:49 |
I don't want the kids to see me |
00:44:52 |
I mean, what am I supposed to do? |
00:44:57 |
Rowena, the children are so upset. |
00:44:59 |
They've promised not to tell anybody that |
00:45:03 |
...and Robbie, he doesn't understand. |
00:45:06 |
Oh, God. Your daddy, |
00:45:11 |
Listen, Rowena, that check |
00:45:14 |
...and why don't you and your man |
00:45:19 |
Why don't y'all just leave, |
00:45:22 |
It would really be best for everybody. |
00:45:26 |
- I bring nothing but misery. |
00:45:29 |
No, you did. You might as well. |
00:45:31 |
Let me get Franco. |
00:45:33 |
Please come to Mama. |
00:45:37 |
If you just get back into the church... |
00:45:40 |
Mom. |
00:45:43 |
Why don't you admit |
00:45:46 |
Oh, God. Don't say that, Rowena. |
00:45:49 |
You're my baby. |
00:45:51 |
Oh, God. I will not turn you out. |
00:45:56 |
My sweet baby. My little baby. |
00:46:00 |
Oh, my God. I love you so much. |
00:46:06 |
I love you too, Mama. |
00:46:09 |
Oh, my baby. |
00:46:14 |
God, I love you. |
00:46:17 |
We know your mother's |
00:46:20 |
I just have to ask you one question. |
00:46:22 |
Are there any relatives |
00:46:27 |
Not that I know of. |
00:46:30 |
We'll have to find foster homes. |
00:46:32 |
You're not separating us. |
00:46:35 |
- It's not juvenile hall. |
00:46:38 |
I'm not stupid. |
00:46:40 |
- Look, I'll get my mother out of the house. |
00:46:44 |
Your grandma will take her back. |
00:46:46 |
- She says she won't, but she does. |
00:46:49 |
I'll take them. I'll get an apartment away |
00:46:54 |
- That money is for junior college. |
00:46:57 |
Gracie, you're 17 years old. |
00:46:59 |
You have to be a legal adult to be a foster |
00:47:04 |
I can do that? |
00:47:06 |
Yeah. |
00:47:08 |
Even then, |
00:47:10 |
- That's too much on your shoulders. |
00:47:14 |
Look, this is a solution. |
00:47:17 |
You can't separate us. |
00:47:22 |
I'll be their mother. |
00:47:26 |
You... |
00:47:28 |
...are not their mother! |
00:47:33 |
- Is this so you can get the caregiver money? |
00:47:38 |
This is all a setup! She gets the money, |
00:47:41 |
Only because it belongs to me, |
00:47:44 |
No, don't curse your daughter like that! |
00:47:47 |
You shut up! |
00:47:51 |
- You are not taking my kids! |
00:47:54 |
Just admit that you had us |
00:47:57 |
Too bad you had so many miscarriages |
00:48:03 |
- You go to hell! |
00:48:11 |
They are never going to give them to you. |
00:48:17 |
Not to you. |
00:48:20 |
Just leave... |
00:48:24 |
...before I call the cops. |
00:48:51 |
Oh, my little baby grandchild. |
00:49:04 |
Oh, God. |
00:49:16 |
- We can run away. |
00:49:19 |
We could take a bus, get jobs |
00:49:22 |
- Wyoming. |
00:49:25 |
That's how Mom deals with her problems, |
00:49:29 |
We have to ask the court. |
00:49:31 |
You take care of us, |
00:49:35 |
Judges are smart |
00:49:37 |
...and they figure out |
00:49:40 |
We already know what's best for us. |
00:49:45 |
Why don't I read you guys a story. |
00:49:47 |
We've read Bambi about 100 times. |
00:49:50 |
Don't knock it. |
00:50:15 |
I don't think you know |
00:50:18 |
- You understand they must stay in school? |
00:50:22 |
You're employed part-time. |
00:50:24 |
- Yes, sir. Through the school. |
00:50:28 |
I've had half a dozen children |
00:50:32 |
Well, your school records have |
00:50:36 |
Yes, Your Honor? |
00:50:38 |
You're a counselor at Gracie's school. |
00:50:41 |
Gracie is doing extremely well, and I'm |
00:50:47 |
All of the children are making an effort. |
00:50:50 |
Ryan and Robbie are in special day classes, |
00:50:54 |
What happens to them |
00:50:57 |
My grandmother can come |
00:51:00 |
...or there's foster-family daycare. |
00:51:02 |
I know it's not perfect, |
00:51:05 |
...and to my brothers |
00:51:11 |
Where is the mother, Rowena Larson? |
00:51:15 |
I talked to her yesterday. |
00:51:20 |
Well, how did these children |
00:51:22 |
- Easy. We took the bus. |
00:51:26 |
We're getting one. |
00:51:30 |
Look, I don't understand this money |
00:51:34 |
She's getting $520 a month |
00:51:38 |
The thing is, Your Honor, my grandmother |
00:51:42 |
We don't ever see it. |
00:51:43 |
Gracie buys us our shoes and stuff, sir. |
00:51:48 |
The money would have to go |
00:51:51 |
That's gonna make Grandma really mad. |
00:51:53 |
Because my mother |
00:51:56 |
- I mean, heck. |
00:51:59 |
Just worry about these kids. |
00:52:03 |
- I can get one. |
00:52:05 |
I found one. It has to be approved. |
00:52:07 |
How will you handle it? |
00:52:10 |
These children gotta have |
00:52:13 |
- Yes, I have the list. |
00:52:16 |
- I'll give you a week to get it all in order. |
00:52:19 |
Well, if you can do all that, maybe |
00:52:24 |
Okay. |
00:52:27 |
This is just temporary, |
00:52:31 |
But I'm gonna be watching you. I want |
00:52:35 |
...and copies of report cards. |
00:52:38 |
This is highly unusual, but I'm giving you |
00:52:44 |
I hope it doesn't come back |
00:52:46 |
- Thank you, Judge Donner. Thank you. |
00:53:04 |
Tough neighborhood. I don't know. |
00:53:07 |
It's better than most places we've lived, |
00:53:13 |
Well... |
00:53:15 |
...you're gonna have to clean it up. |
00:53:19 |
I have plenty of experience |
00:53:23 |
Well, put some pictures up. |
00:53:26 |
Family stuff. Make it cozy and warm. |
00:53:30 |
- I'll be back in a week. |
00:53:35 |
Done. |
00:53:38 |
- You did this without telling me? |
00:53:42 |
No, my parents think you're nuts. |
00:53:44 |
I, on the other hand, |
00:53:47 |
I didn't have a choice. |
00:53:51 |
- What do you think of this one? |
00:53:55 |
We got a twin bed in the garage. |
00:53:58 |
Okay, how much money you got? |
00:54:00 |
I've saved a few thousand, |
00:54:04 |
Wait a minute. You've been saving |
00:54:07 |
Yeah, underneath the mattress. |
00:54:09 |
Why didn't you just put it in the bank, |
00:54:14 |
What's that? |
00:54:15 |
The bank pays you a percentage |
00:54:19 |
Free money? |
00:54:22 |
That is a great, great idea. |
00:54:47 |
- This thing's awesome! |
00:54:54 |
Grandma... |
00:54:57 |
...could you cut this for me |
00:55:02 |
Left, left, left, right, left. |
00:55:06 |
- Up the stairs. |
00:55:28 |
We found a kitten! |
00:55:33 |
Yes, we can. You all are gonna |
00:55:37 |
What do we call him? |
00:55:39 |
- Lobo. |
00:56:06 |
Okay, thank you, Jonny. |
00:56:08 |
What did I tell you? |
00:56:11 |
Put it in the corner. Thank Mrs. Turner |
00:56:15 |
We don't have any pictures, |
00:56:21 |
Keep the ones that are in there. |
00:56:23 |
Isn't Mr. Bessey supposed to be here? |
00:56:26 |
- Don't worry. He will be here. |
00:56:29 |
No, I don't want you guys |
00:56:32 |
Mr. Bessey is never late, |
00:56:36 |
Okay, that's him. Okay, come on. |
00:56:41 |
Okay, everybody ready? Clean hands? |
00:56:44 |
Elbows? |
00:56:46 |
- Okay, good. |
00:56:47 |
- We're gonna miss the whole thing. |
00:56:53 |
Hello. I'm Sandy Jacobs. |
00:56:56 |
Hi. You know what? |
00:57:00 |
Bob Bessey, Mr. Bessey, |
00:57:03 |
Your file's on my desk now. |
00:57:06 |
Okay. |
00:57:08 |
You're late. |
00:57:10 |
- Sorry. Traffic. |
00:57:12 |
We have a phone. |
00:57:14 |
They're upset because they had |
00:57:17 |
Yeah, it started an hour ago. |
00:57:21 |
Yes, well, this takes precedence |
00:57:29 |
It's very homey. |
00:57:31 |
- You have gas, electricity? |
00:57:34 |
It means "wolf" because he bites. |
00:57:39 |
- We got our teeth cleaned. |
00:57:41 |
Yes, I have the reports. |
00:57:46 |
Aunt Beth Ann and Uncle Mike. |
00:57:49 |
- And where do they live? |
00:57:53 |
They do? |
00:57:58 |
Okay, I noticed in the report that |
00:58:03 |
- We have a stable support line. |
00:58:08 |
And I noticed that Brian |
00:58:12 |
Do you mean Ryan? |
00:58:14 |
Oh, yes, Ryan. Sorry. |
00:58:16 |
So many families. So many children. |
00:58:19 |
I don't wanna upset him. |
00:58:23 |
I think you should consider |
00:58:27 |
That... That's a great idea. I will do that. |
00:58:31 |
Okay, well, I have to make my report |
00:58:34 |
All in all, I would say, "Good job." |
00:58:37 |
I'm gonna grant you |
00:58:41 |
Good work, boys. |
00:58:50 |
Grace, I have got to hand it to you. |
00:58:54 |
You have a lot of patience. |
00:58:58 |
And you're a better mother |
00:59:02 |
Grandma, we never could have |
00:59:06 |
Who drank all the milk? |
00:59:08 |
If you drink all the milk, we don't have |
00:59:13 |
Why couldn't we get cereal? |
00:59:15 |
Because it's too expensive. |
00:59:18 |
It's got too much sugar. |
00:59:21 |
- Gracie, who are those guys? |
00:59:30 |
Down, Robbie! Get down! |
00:59:34 |
Gracie! Gracie! |
00:59:37 |
Stay down, Robbie! |
00:59:41 |
It's okay. |
00:59:44 |
It's okay. |
00:59:49 |
You can't give us any description |
00:59:52 |
You didn't notice the make, |
00:59:55 |
I was covering up my brother. |
00:59:59 |
- Where exactly were you? |
01:00:01 |
Don't talk to my sister like that. |
01:00:04 |
- Show some respect. |
01:00:07 |
They shot our car! Through the door, |
01:00:11 |
- They blew a tire off! My sister came home... |
01:00:18 |
Go upstairs. I'll be up in a minute. |
01:00:22 |
Now! |
01:00:26 |
Excuse my brother. |
01:00:28 |
This is all so terrible. |
01:00:31 |
Grandma! |
01:00:34 |
Robbie, honey, go upstairs |
01:00:37 |
Jonny will read one of the stories |
01:00:40 |
Good night, Mr. Policeman. |
01:00:42 |
- You are not helping this. |
01:00:45 |
I shouldn't have said that, |
01:00:48 |
- I know, Grandma. |
01:00:51 |
...to your mom. |
01:00:54 |
You okay? |
01:00:58 |
- What's wrong? |
01:01:06 |
Okay, you guys say your prayers? |
01:01:08 |
All right. Good night. |
01:01:11 |
- Good night. |
01:01:19 |
Hey. |
01:01:21 |
Hi. |
01:01:23 |
I can't believe you threw up |
01:01:26 |
Yeah, it was a real projectile too. |
01:01:30 |
It was a freak accident. |
01:01:34 |
It just brings up so much old stuff, |
01:01:42 |
It's like nothing has changed. |
01:01:45 |
You're not in that life anymore. |
01:01:49 |
- It's time we made plans. |
01:01:52 |
Tommy, I can't even plan |
01:01:55 |
I'm going to court |
01:01:57 |
I'm going from social worker |
01:02:00 |
I have to do the laundry |
01:02:03 |
- I put shoes on their feet. |
01:02:06 |
Your grandmother can take over soon. |
01:02:10 |
- You're not hearing me. |
01:02:16 |
Next year, we're gonna get |
01:02:18 |
I'm gonna go to Braxton. |
01:02:21 |
- Tommy, I can't afford college. |
01:02:25 |
Gracie, you're getting A's and B's. |
01:02:30 |
Baby, I love you. |
01:02:33 |
We're gonna get through this together. |
01:02:38 |
Think about you for a change. |
01:02:44 |
Forget about it. |
01:02:47 |
Think about it. |
01:02:53 |
Right now I'm thinking |
01:03:08 |
- So, what do you think now? |
01:03:12 |
- You like? |
01:03:14 |
What makes you think |
01:03:17 |
- This. I went on the Internet. |
01:03:20 |
Oh, very funny. Look, |
01:03:24 |
- All you have to do is apply. It's a lock. |
01:03:27 |
- Do you know what a college degree means? |
01:03:30 |
No, more us. |
01:03:32 |
You know, have our own kids, |
01:03:35 |
Instant family, just add Tommy. |
01:03:38 |
You want? |
01:03:43 |
Yes. Tommy, I want very much. |
01:03:46 |
Good. |
01:03:51 |
I've never once seen you take a break. |
01:03:54 |
I'm applying for a scholarship, |
01:03:57 |
College? I thought you were saving |
01:04:01 |
That'll come later. |
01:04:05 |
I'm not gonna buy anything |
01:04:09 |
Hello? |
01:04:11 |
Gracie, it's for you. |
01:04:24 |
Grandma. |
01:04:26 |
Hi. I'm here. |
01:04:29 |
It's gonna be okay. |
01:04:31 |
Rowena? |
01:04:32 |
No, no, Grandma. It's Gracie. |
01:04:35 |
You're running around |
01:04:39 |
...like when you ride your horse. |
01:04:42 |
- I told you a million times. |
01:04:46 |
I've got my shoes on. |
01:04:49 |
I knew you'd come, Rowena... |
01:04:52 |
...because you know |
01:04:55 |
You know I spoiled you. |
01:04:57 |
I spoiled you when you were a little girl, |
01:05:01 |
...in all the wrong ways. |
01:05:06 |
Parents aren't always so smart. |
01:05:10 |
But I promise, |
01:05:14 |
Oh, forgive me, Rowena, please. |
01:05:20 |
You forgive your mama? |
01:05:23 |
Yeah. Yeah, I forgive you. |
01:05:30 |
Just rest now, okay? |
01:05:34 |
Just rest because I need you. |
01:05:37 |
We all need you. |
01:05:41 |
Just rest. |
01:05:45 |
Lord, when we hear the words |
01:05:48 |
...that you giveth and you taketh away... |
01:05:51 |
...so often we look only at the part |
01:05:55 |
Yet, even as we are filled with sadness |
01:06:00 |
...we are also here to celebrate |
01:06:03 |
Louella Larson, proud mother to a fine |
01:06:08 |
...loving grandmother... |
01:06:12 |
She told Rose she was coming. |
01:06:15 |
- Just plain Lou, although |
01:06:20 |
We ask you, dear Lord, to take her. |
01:06:24 |
I'm starving. All I want |
01:06:30 |
Kids! |
01:06:32 |
Boys! |
01:06:38 |
Oh, my God. You guys. |
01:06:41 |
We couldn't find the church. |
01:06:46 |
Tommy, you're still around, dude. |
01:06:51 |
Well, look at you. |
01:06:55 |
My baby girls. |
01:06:57 |
Hi, Mom. |
01:07:03 |
Get out! |
01:07:07 |
Oh, my golly. |
01:07:10 |
Can you believe it? |
01:07:18 |
Poor Grandma Lou, huh? |
01:07:26 |
You guys, listen. I want you |
01:07:29 |
If you want anything... |
01:07:32 |
...of your grandma's, a little trinket |
01:07:36 |
She didn't have much. She only had |
01:07:40 |
...you know, and the house and furniture. |
01:07:48 |
They're outside. |
01:07:55 |
- Come on, come on. |
01:08:03 |
Well, what's up? |
01:08:06 |
- Well, come on! Yeah, Robbie! |
01:08:11 |
Hi, baby. |
01:08:14 |
How's my boy? Come on. |
01:08:17 |
- Jonny, let's go, man. Come on. |
01:08:21 |
Ryan? |
01:08:23 |
Ryan? |
01:08:25 |
Come on, man. |
01:08:28 |
That's the way I like to see it. |
01:08:33 |
Do you think she's gonna try |
01:08:38 |
Who knows what she's gonna do? |
01:08:40 |
I got her. |
01:08:43 |
Come on. |
01:09:39 |
Gracie, that guy over there, |
01:09:47 |
Okay. |
01:09:49 |
Will you cover for me? Thanks. |
01:09:56 |
What can I do for you? |
01:09:57 |
What you can do is get your ass |
01:10:01 |
Who are you? |
01:10:03 |
Gracie, I'm your daddy. |
01:10:07 |
What's the matter? |
01:10:10 |
- I don't know. L... I can't... |
01:10:14 |
...have you got a little place where |
01:10:20 |
Come on. |
01:10:22 |
Yeah. |
01:10:25 |
Yeah. |
01:10:28 |
Look at you, you're the manager. |
01:10:32 |
You know, and you look real pretty, |
01:10:37 |
You turned out great, Gracie. |
01:10:39 |
No thanks to you. |
01:10:42 |
Come on, don't be mad. |
01:10:43 |
You know, I just... I couldn't see you |
01:10:47 |
- They'd have put me in jail. |
01:10:50 |
No, no, no. Your mom beat you. |
01:10:53 |
Is that true? |
01:10:55 |
Sweetie, I've just been |
01:10:59 |
...and waiting until you was 18 |
01:11:02 |
Have you ever heard of a phone call? |
01:11:05 |
Jeez. Gracie, you know, I kind of had |
01:11:13 |
But, you know, the thing is, |
01:11:16 |
She's trying to stick me |
01:11:19 |
She's claiming that Rosie |
01:11:22 |
Well, you know they're not, right? |
01:11:25 |
So, what I need... |
01:11:27 |
I just need you to sign this thing |
01:11:34 |
This is why you came to see me? |
01:11:37 |
Well, she can't get away with it, |
01:11:40 |
No, they're mine! |
01:11:53 |
Good luck with your |
01:12:08 |
You guys, what is this? |
01:12:11 |
Well, wake up and smell the roses. |
01:12:13 |
Congratulations! |
01:12:16 |
- Thank you. |
01:12:18 |
- Breakfast in bed, like on TV. |
01:12:23 |
- Come here. |
01:12:26 |
This looks delicious. |
01:12:30 |
Jarrod Tarlaton. |
01:12:38 |
Gracie Thompson. |
01:12:41 |
Yeah! All right, Gracie! |
01:12:44 |
All right, Gracie! |
01:12:50 |
Your parents must be very proud. |
01:12:53 |
Exactly. |
01:13:07 |
- Gracie! |
01:13:10 |
- Hold it. Hold it, guys. I want to get this. |
01:13:14 |
- Beautiful. |
01:13:16 |
- Congratulations. |
01:13:19 |
- Hey, there's punch in the corner. |
01:13:23 |
- Congratulations. |
01:13:25 |
- Let's get a picture. |
01:13:28 |
I am sorry I was a pain in the ass. |
01:13:31 |
Don't worry about it. |
01:13:34 |
I got a job this summer |
01:13:37 |
This from the girl who once told me |
01:13:40 |
I'm loading numbers into a computer, |
01:13:43 |
Whatever it is, you're starting a new life |
01:13:47 |
Now, that is the best news. |
01:13:51 |
You proud of that? I can't believe it. |
01:13:54 |
Boys, do you want to say hello |
01:13:58 |
Hi, Mrs. Thurston. |
01:14:02 |
So when were you gonna tell me? |
01:14:04 |
I don't know. |
01:14:06 |
- I just got all messed up. |
01:14:10 |
...and you threw it away? |
01:14:12 |
How do I go to college |
01:14:15 |
Robbie's 7 years old. |
01:14:21 |
Look, I just gotta know. |
01:14:26 |
Do you love me or not? |
01:14:30 |
Tommy, you know that I do. |
01:14:33 |
Say it, Gracie. |
01:14:43 |
But I can't turn my back on the boys. |
01:14:47 |
Let somebody adopt them. |
01:14:50 |
It's a good opportunity... |
01:14:52 |
If anybody's gonna adopt them, |
01:14:57 |
Do you know what you just said? |
01:15:02 |
So you're serious. |
01:15:04 |
- You're gonna try and adopt them yourself? |
01:15:12 |
Look, the boys adore you... |
01:15:14 |
...and I know that you love them. |
01:15:18 |
I want to be with you! |
01:15:21 |
I want us to have our own kids, |
01:15:25 |
- Tommy, don't say that. |
01:15:28 |
Look, I'm sorry, Gracie. |
01:15:31 |
I'm only 19. |
01:15:33 |
Got my whole life ahead of me. |
01:15:35 |
I can't. |
01:15:47 |
Gracie, your family is ruining your life. |
01:15:56 |
You don't even see it. |
01:16:09 |
You expect me to take this pro bono? |
01:16:11 |
I don't expect anything. I'm hoping. |
01:16:13 |
- Do you know your mom will sign a release? |
01:16:16 |
The only way she'd sign it |
01:16:19 |
They'll assign her a lawyer. |
01:16:22 |
You'd have to luck out |
01:16:25 |
- We had one before. |
01:16:28 |
I don't know who half of them are. |
01:16:32 |
You have to get a hold of relatives. You |
01:16:36 |
You have to put ads in newspapers. |
01:16:38 |
You've got to locate these people |
01:16:42 |
- Ancillary costs can add up. |
01:16:45 |
I went through all of this stuff |
01:16:48 |
There's little or no precedent for this. |
01:16:52 |
Are you gonna help me or not? |
01:17:00 |
Robbie? |
01:17:02 |
Don't wrinkle it. I just ironed it. |
01:17:06 |
Belonged to my boss. |
01:17:08 |
Come on. We gotta get going. |
01:17:11 |
- It got a big stain. |
01:17:14 |
- Why can't we ever get anything new? |
01:17:18 |
- Are you scrubbed good behind your ears? |
01:17:22 |
What is that smell? |
01:17:24 |
I used some of Tommy's cologne |
01:17:27 |
- Well, you used too much. |
01:17:37 |
Come on. |
01:17:41 |
All right, I want you to sit over here. |
01:17:43 |
You're in charge. |
01:17:46 |
Excuse me, while I go barf my guts out. |
01:18:05 |
Would you mind if I had two of those? |
01:18:07 |
- Aspirin? |
01:18:08 |
Yeah, sure. |
01:18:16 |
I come here this morning |
01:18:20 |
...and they took my children away |
01:18:25 |
What kind of people take babies |
01:18:33 |
I don't... |
01:18:36 |
Sorry. |
01:18:38 |
I mean... |
01:18:41 |
I hope... I hope it works out for you. |
01:18:48 |
It's a great idea. Gracie's gonna love it. |
01:18:52 |
- Hi, Gracie. |
01:18:55 |
Well, hi there, Gracie. |
01:18:57 |
Hey, what do you think? |
01:18:59 |
- They said I should look respectable. |
01:19:03 |
I do feel like my mother. |
01:19:06 |
- You're beautiful, Mom. |
01:19:11 |
- Mom wants to take us to Wyoming. |
01:19:14 |
We could all go. |
01:19:16 |
Gracie, you too. You're invited. |
01:19:19 |
- We could start over. |
01:19:22 |
She's gonna sell Grandma Lou's house |
01:19:26 |
We're gonna have a ranch house with |
01:19:32 |
We're gonna have a huge garden. |
01:19:34 |
Because we'll grow |
01:19:37 |
Oh, and she says we're gonna have horses. |
01:19:41 |
Yes, yes, yes. |
01:19:45 |
I know I wasn't a good mother... |
01:19:49 |
...but like I told the boys, I loved you. |
01:19:53 |
I love all of my children. |
01:19:59 |
I'm gonna make up for it now. |
01:20:03 |
Please don't do this. |
01:20:11 |
I'll raise them like I was raised. |
01:20:15 |
I had a good upbringing. It's just that |
01:20:19 |
- I'm in a parenting class now. |
01:20:22 |
Well, that's because I only found out |
01:20:26 |
...but I'm gonna go |
01:20:31 |
Judge Marks, this is all a mistake. |
01:20:34 |
I want my kids. I want to give them |
01:20:39 |
Are you prepared to get a job? |
01:20:42 |
Well, I'm taking it one step at a time. |
01:20:47 |
Thank you. |
01:20:49 |
Thank you. |
01:20:52 |
Will any of the children's fathers |
01:20:54 |
Oh, golly, no, no, no. |
01:20:57 |
No, they owe me way too much |
01:21:02 |
But I will tell you that these kids |
01:21:07 |
I understand, but according to the petition |
01:21:11 |
Oh, yes, I read that. |
01:21:13 |
Gracie is a good kid, |
01:21:18 |
If you don't see me fit to raise the children, |
01:21:23 |
No one helped them more than I. |
01:21:25 |
Please. I've gone over dozens of reports |
01:21:29 |
They'll tell you I've been the one |
01:21:32 |
...for feeding and clothing them. |
01:21:36 |
You should know that she has sex |
01:21:39 |
- That is not the way it went! He loved me! |
01:21:42 |
- It is the way it is. |
01:21:45 |
Will counsel on both sides please |
01:21:49 |
Miss Larson. |
01:21:51 |
I'd like to call the children |
01:21:57 |
Let's. |
01:22:01 |
Boys, the judge wants to see you. |
01:22:05 |
- Come on. |
01:22:09 |
Ryan Walker... |
01:22:12 |
...Jonny Blicker... |
01:22:14 |
...and Robbie Locascio... |
01:22:16 |
...you've been sworn in, |
01:22:21 |
Now I'm going to ask each of you |
01:22:26 |
Ryan, you're the eldest, |
01:22:32 |
Who do you want to live with? |
01:22:45 |
One, four, three. |
01:22:49 |
I love you, Mom. |
01:22:51 |
I will always love you. |
01:22:54 |
I'm sorry, |
01:23:01 |
What? |
01:23:06 |
Well, he's been brainwashed. |
01:23:09 |
- Jonny, what about you? |
01:23:14 |
- Miss Larson! |
01:23:17 |
Clearly, she has... She's... |
01:23:20 |
She's poisoned them or brainwashed them |
01:23:24 |
- Counsel, I've warned you. |
01:23:30 |
I'm not bad. I'm not bad. |
01:23:35 |
One more chance, please, to be |
01:23:40 |
Jonny... |
01:23:42 |
...come to me, my babies. |
01:23:45 |
Boys. |
01:23:47 |
Boys, I know this is going |
01:23:50 |
...but ignore what your mother |
01:23:53 |
Just try and stay with your feelings. |
01:23:57 |
Jonny... |
01:23:59 |
...who do you want to live with? |
01:24:02 |
Your Honor, we've been with Gracie |
01:24:06 |
She feeds us and reads to us... |
01:24:10 |
...and helps us with our lessons. |
01:24:14 |
She fixes us up when we're hurt |
01:24:19 |
That's what a mother does, right? |
01:24:22 |
She changed our diapers |
01:24:26 |
- Mom, you know that's true. |
01:24:30 |
Robbie, what do you say about this? |
01:24:32 |
Robbie, pay attention. |
01:24:36 |
I would like to live in Wyoming |
01:24:41 |
- Wyoming? |
01:24:44 |
Yeah, yeah. |
01:24:46 |
But I would like to sleep in my own bed |
01:25:00 |
I can take care of it. |
01:25:05 |
I've been with this case |
01:25:09 |
It seems the children |
01:25:15 |
I don't want to disrupt that. |
01:25:18 |
Miss Larson, I know you feel |
01:25:22 |
...but it's all coming too late. |
01:25:27 |
Parental rights are terminated. |
01:25:37 |
Is that...? Is that it? |
01:25:48 |
I can't see my babies anymore? |
01:25:55 |
You're not my babies anymore? |
01:25:59 |
Oh, God! |
01:26:10 |
I love you, my boys. I love you. |
01:26:16 |
I will always find you. |
01:26:44 |
I hope you know |
01:26:46 |
This is a huge thing you're taking on. |
01:26:49 |
There's no turning back. |
01:26:53 |
I understand. |
01:26:55 |
They've always been my children. |
01:26:58 |
They've never been anyone else's. |
01:27:01 |
Now, can we blow this joint? |
01:27:07 |
- He means, are we done? |
01:27:11 |
- Diesel, like Vin Diesel. |
01:27:14 |
- Potter, like Harry. |
01:27:16 |
We have five minutes |
01:27:19 |
- Lobo. |
01:27:21 |
Savage. |
01:27:24 |
Jonny Savage. |
01:27:26 |
No, how about Weatherly? |
01:27:32 |
Because we've been through |
01:27:34 |
- Weatherly. Jonny Weatherly. Okay. |
01:27:38 |
All right, Weatherly. |
01:27:42 |
Weatherly, Your Honor. |
01:27:48 |
Ladies and gentlemen of the courtroom, |
01:27:51 |
...l'm happy to present |
01:27:54 |
- Yes. |
01:27:56 |
Gracie Weatherly... |
01:27:58 |
...Ryan Weatherly... |
01:28:00 |
...Jonny Weatherly... |
01:28:02 |
...and Robbie Weatherly. |
01:28:04 |
This is a miracle. It's a first. |
01:28:07 |
I want to see you guys |
01:28:11 |
It's heroic what you're doing. |
01:28:13 |
I wondered, when I was |
01:28:18 |
...if I'd make a mistake by granting this. |
01:28:23 |
But I know in my heart |
01:28:28 |
- I just hope you can handle it. |
01:28:34 |
It's gonna be hard. |
01:28:36 |
You've got your own little family now. |
01:28:39 |
You can make it happen. |
01:29:06 |
We are proud to present the Weatherlys! |
01:30:17 |
