:48:02
-Happy birthday, sugar.
-Thanks, Daddy.
:48:05
I thought you were gonna
call later this evening.
:48:08
But not in person, eh, Manny?
:48:11
-How are things at home?
-Fine, sugar. All your sisters about grown.
:48:15
And waiting for you
to show them the proper example.
:48:18
Aunt Nellie, Atlanta,
has it changed much?
:48:22
How did you all get here?
Did you fly? Drive?
:48:25
Yes, Atlanta has changed.
No, we didn't fly. Yes, we drove.
:48:29
-All this way just for my birthday.
-And other things.
:48:34
-Relax, Emma.
-I am relaxed.
:48:36
Well, I ain't. I'm thirsty.
:48:39
-Do you have something cold?
-Yes. What would you like?
:48:42
Scotch on the rocks.
:48:45
So Manny, as you no doubt
have noticed, I have a lot on my mind.
:48:51
Yes, I can see that.
:48:53
Well, I got a lot on my mind too,
Mother, dear.
:48:59
-But you go first.
-All right.
:49:01
-Mother, please.
-It has to be said, child.
:49:04
No, it doesn't.
You've said it before...
:49:06
...and I've told Manny.
He knows how you feel.
:49:09
Why don't we all sit down
and get acquainted.
:49:11
We are already acquainted.
We are a family.
:49:15
Manny is family too, Mama.
He's part of my family.
:49:18
The Bible says, "Let them marry."
1 Corinthians.
:49:22
Now, if you don't care
about your father and me...
:49:25
...at least think about your sisters.
:49:28
Emma, please.
Nikki and the boy are happy.
:49:33
And they're together.
And the boy ain't whooping on her.
:49:37
And she ain't poisoning his food
or trying to work roots on him.
:49:41
That's more than you can say for a lot
of the married folks that we do know.
:49:48
-Well, you do look good, Nikki.
-Oh, thanks, Daddy.
:49:52
Manny's good to me.
:49:53
Well, you all just keep on
being good to one another.
:49:56
Now, will somebody be good to me?
I need another drink.
