"[ Chuckles softly ]" "Anyway, I'm just -- I'm " " I'm, you know, worried about the kids 'cause they miss their daddy so much, and he's gonna be in jail for so long." "And [sighs] I don't know what to do." "You are an incredible mother..." "And you'll figure it out." "You know, mama told me how hard it was for you to watch your mama go through all of her troubles, all the crying, and..." "I just want to protect Katie and Travis from that." "Well, Linette means well, but she shouldn't speak for me." "Those are my memories." "Sure, it was hard watching my mama go through hell, but it was better than not seeing her at all." "Whoa!" "[ Laughs ]" "Where'd you learn how to kick like that?" "My Uncle taught me." "We used to go one-on-one all the time back home in Louisiana when I was a kid." "You guys still close?" "He died when I was 16." "Great guy." "Even better left winger." "Mind if I ask how he passed?" "Yeah, I do." "Sorry." "Didn't mean to pry." "No, there's just some things I want to keep private." "[ Sighs ]" "I know a lot of people don't want you in the academy because of your brother." "The way I see it..." "[ Sniffs ] ...everyone deserves a chance." "Can't hold anyone's family against them." "Come on." "What are you waiting for?" "[ Chuckles ]" "All right." "I really want to give you a second chance, Kyle, but I have got to know what happened in Mexico." "Nothing." "Nothing happened." "Then why would they revoke your bail?" "When I was down there, I bought pills." "All right?" "I didn't sell them." "[ Sighs ]" "I really want to believe you." "Riley, I slipped up." "All right?" "But I am clean now." "And I am never going back to that." "All right?" "I promise." "[ Door buzzes ]" "How are Travis and Katie doing with all this?" "How are Travis and Katie?" "They're awful." "They miss their daddy." "I would never hurt them." "You did when you left." "Look, all I can do is say that I'm sorry." "All right?" "And then prove myself to you and them every single day." "But in order to do that, I need my family with me." "You got to let me see our kids." "Hi." "Hey." "[ Scoffs ]" "You at least try to bake them?" "Yes, actually, I did." "And I appreciate the recipes, but let's be honest -- these sploshing pies are the last thing" "I need to be worried about." "Yeah, I hear you." "What'd you buy?" "Ooh, I went with creamy." "Lemon meringue and Boston cream so he has a choice." "Nice." "Nice." "See, I draw the line at rice pudding." "Those damn kernels get stuck in places you don't even want to know about." "Uh, yeah." "Look, we need to discuss Nikki." "She's in trouble." "Punky Brewster get knocked up?" "Derek and I went to see her, and she's working over at Wild Nights." "She crazy?" "That guy's so messed up." "Well, she said she didn't have anywhere else to go, and now she's in debt to him." "I may not have wanted that girl around here, but nobody deserves Carlyle." "Look, I know that you hate to admit it, but we are a family." "She needs our help." "What do you want to do?" "[ Sighs ]" "[ Dance music plays ]" "What makes you think Carlyle's gonna listen to you?" "Because he's just like everybody else -- driven by money." "Maybe he's gonna take your money and screw us." "Not this time." "[ Vehicle approaches ]" "There he is." "[ Sighs ]" "Hey!" "Hey, dollface." "We want to see Nikki." "I want to see the money." "Nikki first." "[ Sighs ]" "I'm so sorry, Riley." "I didn't mean to drag you into this." "Where's the money?" "$1,500." "Right here and Nikki comes with me." "Nice." "Deal's changed." "I forgot the interest." "It's gonna be another $2,000." "Yeah, that's not gonna happen." "[ Tires screech ]" "Ladies." "Is there a problem here?" "No, everything's great." "Mr. Carlyle, have you met my friend, Detective Monroe?" "I'm afraid I haven't had the pleasure, but I do have a lot of friends on the force." "Really?" "I'd love to meet them." "Why don't you give me their names and we'll all get to know each other." "Maybe set up a bowling league." "[ Scoffs ] Everything all right, ma'am?" "Oh, she's fine." "I was asking the lady." "She was just coming with me." "Come on, Nikki." "Let's go." "[ Sighs ]" "I'm so bummed, but I have to go." "Take care, Riley." "I'm just gonna hang back and get to know my friends a little better." "It's always a pleasure, Mrs. Parks." "I'm sure I'll be seeing you real soon." "Night, y'all." "Thank God your detective friend showed up when he did." "Did you think I would have gone in there without a backup plan?" "Do I look completely insane?" "Nobody's ever cared about me enough to do something like that." "I don't know how to thank you." "Well, you could come back and work for me." "We need you at the Rub." "Don't we, Selena?" "What she said, yeah." "[ Laughter ]" "Okay, starting tonight, we all make a pact that we trust each other, yes?" "Okay, let's break this up before we all start crying and want to braid each other's hair." "Hey." "Watch it, new guy." "Come on, I'll give you guys a ride home." "All right." "Good night." "Night." "Thank you." "Welcome." "I'm just glad you're all right." "But if you think this is over, you're fooling yourself." "Guys like Carlyle -- they don't give up easy." "I know that." "But you know what?" "If I had to do it again, I would help Nikki in a heartbeat." "You just watch your back." "[ Travis and Katie shouting indistinctly ]" "I'm telling mom!" "Can we have some lemon meringue?" "Not now, baby." "Those are for your mom." "Both:" "Hi, Mom!" "Oh!" "Hey!" "Mama, what are they still doing up?" "I couldn't get them out of that damn fort." "Mama, these pies look amazing." "I baked them today with my one good arm." "What is all this about?" "It's about you." "You're so sweet to let me move in." "I want you to know I can help out." "Thank you." "Hey, mama, I'm gonna " "I'm gonna let the kids go and see Kyle in jail." "You know, I " " I really appreciate your advice, but they just..." "They miss their daddy." "You're right." "You know what's best for your kids." "I managed to nurse Lacey through her nightmares, and if Travis and Katie get scared, I'll be there for them." "And I'm here for you." "That's what we do." "We're family." "[ Beth Thornley's "Everyone Falls" plays ]" "Now...which one of these am I gonna try?" "Whichever one you want." "I won't tell." "Go ahead." "Ah!" "That's good." "[ Both laugh ] Shh!" "♪ Some that don't fade" "♪ and they read just like a road map ♪" "♪ time cuts a deep track" "♪ through skin and vein" "♪ but you know everyone falls sometimes ♪" "♪ don't they all?" "♪ You know bridges get burned sometimes as we cross ♪" "♪ don't we all?" "You're in good hands with Derek." "First rule of the client list is, there is no client list." "Second rule -- enjoy yourself." "♪ And we're not the same" "♪ time calls your name" "♪ and we're all afraid" "♪ time calls your name" "♪ and we're not the same" "♪ no, we're not the same" "[ Travis and Katie laughing ]" "Hey, is there room for one more in here?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Oh, are those more donkeys for daddy?" "Yeah." "He's gonna love those, just like he loved seeing you guys today." "I'm gonna protect you, mama, just like you're protecting us." "Is that why I always feel so safe?" "Man, I'm a lucky girl." "[ Cellphone rings ]" "[ Cellphone beeps ]" "Okay." "Who wants a story?" "Both:" "Me!" "[ Gasps ] Snuggle up." "Get comfy." "[ Laughs ]" "All right." "Let's see." "Let me tell you a good one." "Oh, I know." "All right, once a upon a time, there was a penguin." "Do you like penguins?" "Both:" "Yeah!" "Riley:" "Yeah?" "Okay." "There was a penguin named Peter." "And he lived in a very cold igloo." "== sync, corrected by elderman =="
