-Marcus Hooks And The Real Deal, take six.

-That's three names.

0:00:020:00:04

-You want me to sing the main line?

-Oh, yeah, here we go, here we go.

0:00:040:00:07

Tonight, we take a musical journey south,

0:00:070:00:09

where the legendary soul band Marcus Hooks And The Real Deal

0:00:090:00:12

developed their signature sound.

0:00:120:00:14

This film contains contains very strong language and adult humour.

0:00:150:00:21

They started out singing for pennies on the street corners of Memphis.

0:00:220:00:26

TOGETHER: # Pull the string

0:00:270:00:29

# And I'll wink at you

0:00:290:00:31

# I'm your puppet

0:00:310:00:33

# Mm-hmm, yeah

0:00:340:00:37

# I'll do funny things

0:00:370:00:39

# If you want me to

0:00:390:00:40

# I'm your puppet

0:00:400:00:43

# I'm yours

0:00:470:00:48

# To have and to hold

0:00:480:00:52

# Darling, you've got

0:00:520:00:54

# Full control

0:00:540:00:56

# Of your puppet... #

0:00:560:00:57

But by 1972, Marcus Hooks And The Real Deal

0:00:580:01:01

had become one of the biggest R&B acts in the world.

0:01:010:01:04

# Nothin' like sweet soul music

0:01:040:01:07

# To bring us together... #

0:01:070:01:09

They played to sell-out houses all over the world.

0:01:090:01:12

They'd sold six million records

0:01:120:01:14

and influenced a generation of American musicians.

0:01:140:01:16

# Dance, to the sweet soul music Yahh! #

0:01:160:01:20

But that all ended on July 24, 1977,

0:01:200:01:23

when Marcus Hooks began his solo career

0:01:230:01:25

with a dramatic concert at New York's Madison Square Garden.

0:01:250:01:28

Ladies and gentlemen,

0:01:280:01:29

Marcus Hooks.

0:01:290:01:32

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:01:320:01:34

Marcus.

0:01:400:01:41

Ooh-ooh-ooh.

0:01:410:01:42

Hey, boy, hi.

0:01:420:01:44

Hey, boy, dance.

0:01:440:01:46

Yeah.

0:01:460:01:47

But while Hooks became a music legend,

0:01:470:01:49

the journey took a decidedly different direction

0:01:490:01:52

for former band mates Floyd Henderson and Louis Hinds.

0:01:520:01:54

Renowned for their signature dance stylings

0:01:560:01:58

and their one breakout hit, Walk In The Park,

0:01:580:02:01

the duo broke up in 1979.

0:02:010:02:03

Citing creative differences

0:02:030:02:05

and a desire to pursue separate projects.

0:02:050:02:08

-SCREAMING Back off!

-Freeze!

0:02:080:02:10

Get your hands where I can see them!

0:02:100:02:11

Oh. Wait. Wait, wait. It ain't... Ohh!

0:02:110:02:13

The gun ain't real! Ow! It ain't real! Ow!

0:02:130:02:16

-I'm just broke, God

-BLEEP

-it!

0:02:160:02:17

-I ain't tryin' to hurt no mother...

-BLEEP!

0:02:170:02:19

-Watch your

-BLEEP

-damn hands!

0:02:190:02:20

-Police mother...

-BLEEP

-brutality!

0:02:200:02:22

While Floyd Henderson...

0:02:220:02:24

Come on down to Floyd's Car Wash,

0:02:250:02:27

where everything is done by hand.

0:02:270:02:29

..combined his showmanship

0:02:290:02:31

with an entrepreneur spirit.

0:02:310:02:33

And don't forget about Super Soul Sundays,

0:02:330:02:35

with a full body wash

0:02:350:02:37

to guarantee a free rimjob.

0:02:370:02:39

Come on. Get your rimjob.

0:02:420:02:44

-SHE MOANS

-Come get your rimjob.

0:02:440:02:45

Come and get your rimjob!

0:02:450:02:47

Whatever happened to the forgotten duo...

0:02:470:02:50

The Real Deal?

0:02:500:02:52

Baby, turn the navigation on.

0:02:550:02:57

I hope we can find this place sometime tonight.

0:02:570:03:00

He's going to love it there.

0:03:000:03:01

They got Craftmatic adjustable beds,

0:03:010:03:03

clap-on lamps.

0:03:030:03:05

Y'all better shut up back there, I'm tellin' you.

0:03:050:03:07

I'm going to reach back there

0:03:070:03:08

and pop one of them little boys upside the head so bad.

0:03:080:03:11

I think that's it, Uncle Floyd.

0:03:120:03:14

Whoo!

0:03:150:03:17

Now, I can't believe I let you talk me into this bullshit.

0:03:170:03:19

What you talking about? It's beautiful. You don't like this?

0:03:190:03:22

It's a death camp.

0:03:220:03:23

Oh, how is it a death camp, Unc?

0:03:230:03:26

We got 36 holes of golf.

0:03:260:03:28

Three swimming pools.

0:03:280:03:29

You know the ratio of women to men here

0:03:290:03:31

is 5 to 1, Unc? 5 to 1.

0:03:310:03:34

That mean you got 'em everywhere.

0:03:340:03:35

You can't even move. There's women...

0:03:350:03:37

Every time you look around,

0:03:370:03:38

women crawling between your legs, arms, anything.

0:03:380:03:40

I mean, damn, Unc. And if you're worried about the business,

0:03:400:03:43

I got that.

0:03:430:03:44

You taught me everything you know.

0:03:440:03:46

Yeah.

0:03:460:03:47

Yeah. You know something, son? You're real crafty.

0:03:470:03:50

-Appreciate that.

-See, first you move into my house.

0:03:500:03:53

Then you take over my business.

0:03:530:03:54

-Aw, man, I ain't taking...

-Oh, yeah.

0:03:540:03:56

Then you move me all the way out to the Valley, man,

0:03:560:03:57

so can't nobody hear me scream. Right?

0:03:570:03:59

Actually, that's why we're moving you here.

0:03:590:04:01

So the nurses can hear your ass scream.

0:04:010:04:03

You remember you fell on that floor for three days

0:04:030:04:05

-and couldn't nobody hear you.

-I remember.

0:04:050:04:07

Yeah. Now, stop being bitter, man. Enjoy yourself, Unc.

0:04:070:04:11

There are your golden years, player.

0:04:110:04:13

HE SIGHS

0:04:130:04:15

Now, come on in the house and say bye

0:04:150:04:16

to Charlene and the kids.

0:04:160:04:18

Fuck them kids.

0:04:190:04:20

Fuck the kids?

0:04:200:04:22

Yeah.

0:04:220:04:23

HE SIGHS

0:04:370:04:38

-Ohh...

-HE GRUNTS

0:04:550:04:57

Ohhh! Yeah, baby. Ohh! Ohh!

0:05:040:05:06

Ohh! Oh, give it to me. Give it to me nice and hard.

0:05:060:05:09

Oh, papi, si. Ooh!

0:05:090:05:11

Oh, right there!

0:05:110:05:12

Trembling Ohhhhh!

0:05:120:05:14

Uhh! Ohh!

0:05:140:05:17

Ooh. Don't stop, baby.

0:05:170:05:18

No. No.

0:05:180:05:20

No, you're not getting away.

0:05:200:05:22

Hoo, hoo! Hoo, hoo! Yummy!

0:05:220:05:24

Uhh! Uhh! Yeah.

0:05:240:05:26

BOTH SCREAM

0:05:260:05:28

Aah!

0:05:290:05:30

LOUD SNORING

0:05:350:05:38

Mmm.

0:05:410:05:42

How's the hip?

0:05:460:05:48

Fine.

0:05:490:05:50

OK.

0:05:500:05:51

DOCTOR SIGHS, RUBBER SNAPS

0:05:540:05:56

OK, Mr Henderson. I'm going to need you

0:05:580:06:01

to, uh, stand up, face the window,

0:06:010:06:03

and bend over the table.

0:06:030:06:05

My problem ain't back in that area, Doctor.

0:06:050:06:07

Look, Mr Henderson, your sleep problem

0:06:070:06:09

can be a symptom of a myriad of different conditions,

0:06:090:06:11

some of which, you know, are...

0:06:110:06:12

Well, you know, back in that area.

0:06:120:06:15

I don't like nobody behind me like that, Huds.

0:06:180:06:20

I'm telling you, I just don't like nobody playing

0:06:200:06:22

-with my penny.

-I'll be very gentle.

0:06:220:06:23

I'll be in and out before you know it.

0:06:230:06:25

Just bend over. There you go.

0:06:280:06:30

Hold on, now. Get a good grip.

0:06:300:06:32

Just relax.

0:06:330:06:35

Relax.

0:06:350:06:36

# Roll away

0:06:430:06:45

# Ooh, ooh... #

0:06:450:06:46

All right, again, Mr Henderson,

0:06:460:06:48

there's absolutely nothing wrong with you.

0:06:480:06:50

So take those for insomnia.

0:06:500:06:51

Give me a call if anything changes. All right?

0:06:510:06:53

-All right.

-Do me a favour.

0:06:530:06:55

Stop being so hard on yourself, Mr Henderson.

0:06:550:06:58

Retirement can be a tough transition. All right?

0:06:580:07:00

OK. Oh, yeah. Hey, listen.

0:07:100:07:13

Don't mix those sleeping pills with alcohol

0:07:130:07:15

unless you want to kill yourself.

0:07:150:07:17

HE LAUGHS

Hinds, telephone!

I'll find out and send your ass back to prison

0:08:310:08:34

so fucking fast, it will make your black monkey head spin.

0:08:340:08:37

You know, there was a time

0:08:410:08:42

I would've knocked your teeth down your throat

0:08:420:08:44

for saying some shit like that to me.

0:08:440:08:45

But I'm a changed man.

0:08:450:08:47

I'm trying to be all centred and shit.

Now, I could of called you a unibrow-shaving, pilaf-eating,

greasy-ass goat fucker, but I didn't, did I?

0:08:520:08:53

-Uh-uh.

-cos I didn't want to hurt your feelings,

0:08:530:08:56

and I didn't want to piss you off,

0:08:560:08:57

just like I know deep, deep down inside,

0:08:570:08:59

you don't want to piss me off, either.

0:08:590:09:01

-Now, do you?

-Uh-uh. Uh-uh. No. Uh-uh.

0:09:010:09:04

All right.

HE COUGHS

0:09:070:09:09

Scruffy, Kibbles...

0:09:090:09:10

Yeah, this is Louis.

0:09:100:09:12

Hey. Mr Hinds.

0:09:120:09:13

It's Danny Epstein calling from New York. How are you today?

0:09:130:09:16

'Who?'

0:09:160:09:17

Marty's son.

0:09:170:09:18

'Oh, yeah?'

0:09:180:09:19

Shit, I ain't seen you since you were in diapers.

0:09:190:09:22

'Yeah. Well,'

0:09:220:09:24

I assume you heard about Marcus' passing, yeah?

0:09:240:09:26

Oh, yeah. I'm crying the tears of a motherfucking clown.

0:09:260:09:29

OK. Here's the thing. VH1 is putting together

0:09:290:09:32

a farewell tribute at the Apollo,

0:09:320:09:33

'and they got a lot of big names lined up.'

0:09:330:09:35

And they want Henderson and Hinds to perform, right?

0:09:350:09:37

That's right! The Real Deal back together again.

0:09:370:09:40

It's a great opportunity.

0:09:400:09:41

You talk to Floyd?

0:09:410:09:43

I did.

0:09:430:09:44

Mr Henderson is in.

0:09:440:09:46

'Good.'

0:09:460:09:47

Then I'm out.

0:09:470:09:48

# Born under a bad sign

0:09:560:10:00

# Been down since I began to crawl

0:10:020:10:05

# If it wasn't for bad luck

0:10:060:10:09

# You know I wouldn't have no luck at all

0:10:090:10:12

# Hard luck and trouble... #

0:10:160:10:18

BABY CRIES

0:10:180:10:19

INDISTINCT CHATTER AND LAUGHING

0:10:190:10:21

MUTTERING

0:10:330:10:36

That is disgusting.

0:10:420:10:43

Ooh!

0:10:430:10:44

I don't believe this. Hmm.

0:10:460:10:49

Hey!

0:10:490:10:50

Uhh!

0:10:500:10:52

THUD

0:10:520:10:54

Ohh. Damn!

0:11:030:11:05

What the fuck happened, man?

0:11:060:11:08

Hell if I know. I came in, found your ass laying there.

0:11:080:11:11

Bullshit. You looked me dead in my eyes.

0:11:110:11:13

Man, you recognised me.

0:11:130:11:14

I didn't recognise you. You done changed.

0:11:140:11:16

I come all the way down here,

0:11:170:11:18

and, man, you going to look me in my face

0:11:180:11:20

-and knock me the fuck out?

-Should've called first.

0:11:200:11:21

How the hell I'm going to call

0:11:210:11:23

and you ain't got no phone?

0:11:230:11:24

-What kind of person ain't got no land phone?

-Kind of person don't want to get no calls.

0:11:240:11:27

You don't even know why I came down

0:11:270:11:29

to this old fucked-up-the-ass neighbourhood.

0:11:290:11:31

I talked to little Ep. I know why you're here.

0:11:310:11:34

And the answer is no.

0:11:340:11:36

Did he tell you we're at the Apollo and they sold out?

0:11:360:11:39

Did he also tell you who going to be there?

0:11:390:11:41

Booker T Jones. Isaac Hayes. Bootsy Collins.

0:11:410:11:44

-Shakira.

-I don't care.

0:11:440:11:46

Do it for Marcus.

0:11:460:11:47

Fuck Marcus.

0:11:470:11:49

Well, do it for me.

0:11:490:11:50

-Fuck you!

-Come on, man.

0:11:500:11:52

-This is our shot.

-At what?

0:11:520:11:53

At a comeback, fool. If we do this shit right,

0:11:530:11:56

we can get a record deal and get back on the road

0:11:560:11:58

like we was 30 years ago.

0:11:580:12:00

I ain't trying to be like 30 years ago!

0:12:000:12:01

I ain't trying to make no comeback.

0:12:010:12:03

I'm gone, and I want to stay gone.

0:12:030:12:05

Don't make me beg you, man.

0:12:060:12:08

HE SIGHS

0:12:080:12:09

Lao-Tzu says, "Free from desire, you realise the mystery.

0:12:090:12:15

"Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations."

0:12:150:12:18

What the fuck that even mean, man?

0:12:190:12:21

That means...

0:12:210:12:22

..get the fuck out.

0:12:240:12:27

Well, I guess you don't give a fuck about the money, then, huh?

0:12:320:12:35

What money? It's a funeral!

0:12:350:12:36

Nobody get paid to sing at no damn funeral!

0:12:360:12:39

-How much?

-40 grand.

0:12:400:12:42

Apiece?

0:12:420:12:44

No, down the middle.

0:12:440:12:45

No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no!

0:12:450:12:48

That ain't even enough.

0:12:480:12:49

What the fuck you mean that's not enough, man?

0:12:490:12:51

I got a lifestyle to maintain here.

0:12:510:12:54

What kind of lifestyle, man,

0:12:540:12:56

you filthy motherfucker?

0:12:560:12:58

You got a pantry full of dog food. I don't see no dog.

0:12:580:13:00

Dog under the bed, nigger! You lucky

0:13:000:13:02

he ain't attacked your ass when you came in.

0:13:020:13:04

You're the dog, motherfucker!

0:13:040:13:05

Look, man, what happened to all that fucking money you done saved, man?

0:13:080:13:10

Saved? Shit.

0:13:100:13:13

I don't remember shit from Watergate

0:13:130:13:15

to when the space shuttle blew up. Hmm. Money I saved.

0:13:150:13:17

OK, what about the royalties? I used to get

0:13:170:13:19

over 30,000 a year off that shit.

0:13:190:13:21

I lost my royalties in a poker game. All right?

0:13:210:13:24

-Poker?

-Listen here, man.

0:13:240:13:26

If you serious about un-assing me

0:13:260:13:28

from my lavish surroundings here,

0:13:280:13:30

man, you going to have to be a little more flexible

0:13:300:13:32

in your thinking. Say, oh...

0:13:320:13:35

60/40.

0:13:350:13:36

Man, you must be higher than a motherfucker.

0:13:360:13:38

We always split shit straight down the middle.

0:13:380:13:40

Ain't going to be nothing to split

0:13:400:13:42

if I don't show up, now, is there?

0:13:420:13:43

And I ain't showing up unless I get 60% of the proceeds.

0:13:430:13:47

You rich anyway, motherfucker.

0:13:470:13:48

I seen your little car wash commercials on the TV.

0:13:480:13:51

I transferred all my business affairs over to my nephew.

0:13:510:13:53

-I'm on a fixed income, man.

-So what?

0:13:530:13:55

So your drawers!

0:13:550:13:57

That's why that 20 damn thousand dollars

0:13:570:13:59

-look good to me right now.

-16!

0:13:590:14:01

That's your cut of a 60/40 split.

0:14:010:14:04

And those are my terms.

0:14:040:14:05

And they're non-negotiable.

0:14:050:14:07

55/45.

0:14:110:14:13

Fatherfuck you, man.

0:14:190:14:20

You're going to tell me 60/40.

0:14:200:14:23

You don't dictate to me!

0:14:230:14:25

I'm Floyd motherfucking Henderson.

0:14:250:14:27

You and Marc, I made you

0:14:270:14:29

and that motherfucker!

0:14:290:14:30

You can't sing, hum, or motherfucking skip.

0:14:300:14:34

Ain't that a bitch?

0:14:340:14:35

Skip on these motherfucking nuts!

0:14:350:14:37

You and Marcus, may you rest in shit.

0:14:380:14:40

Motherfucker. I'm Floyd fucking Henderson,

0:14:400:14:42

you Apostle-faced motherfucker!

0:14:420:14:44

This motherfucker slams this door in my face one more time...

0:14:440:14:48

I'm tired of this motherfucker!

0:14:480:14:49

Always had a problem with this bitch.

0:14:510:14:52

He ain't nothing. He's ignorant!

0:14:540:14:55

Motherfucker's just a idiot.

0:14:550:14:57

Chihuahua-head motherfucker, man, sitting up there,

0:14:570:15:00

always want to tell somebody what to damn do.

0:15:000:15:02

He going to sit there and talk the fool?

0:15:020:15:04

Ooh, my blood pressure's high, motherfucker.

0:15:040:15:07

Huh!

0:15:070:15:08

Don't let this motherfucker get you like this.

0:15:140:15:16

Huhh!

0:15:180:15:19

HINDS BARKS

0:15:200:15:22

What!

0:15:220:15:23

Stay!

0:15:230:15:24

First of all, I clearly want to state this for the record.

0:15:300:15:32

And I find this arrangement we got, man, despicable.

0:15:320:15:36

But I'm Floyd Henderson. I'm a trouper.

0:15:360:15:38

And you know I'd do any doggone thing, man,

0:15:380:15:40

to see this group get back on its feet,

0:15:400:15:42

cos you know that's the type of motherfucker I am.

0:15:420:15:44

But in the meantime,

0:15:440:15:46

I'm going back to my 600-a-night hotel room,

0:15:460:15:49

and I'm going to have me a nice hot bubble bath

0:15:490:15:52

to wash some of this filth and dirt and grime

0:15:520:15:54

from this black fucking hole you live in.

0:15:540:15:57

Then I'm having me a nice, juicy-ass steak, oh, yeah,

0:15:570:16:01

the size of your motherfucking back.

0:16:010:16:03

Then I'm going to take me a shit, shower and shave.

0:16:030:16:07

And I'll be here at 6am

0:16:070:16:08

to take you to the motherfucking airport.

0:16:080:16:10

-You got me?

-I don't fly.

0:16:100:16:11

And I get up at 8.

0:16:110:16:12

My cousin out the penitentiary,

0:16:150:16:17

I'm going to have him kill this motherfucker!

0:16:170:16:18

DISTANT SIREN

0:16:180:16:20

Man talk to me like I'm a motherfucking kid.

0:16:200:16:22

I ain't no motherfucking kid.

0:16:220:16:23

Every time we...we start on the road,

0:16:230:16:25

he starts in saying the same shit.

0:16:250:16:28

-DANNY EPSTEIN:

-Hey! Who's got my lunch?

0:16:280:16:31

-Who are you?

-I'm Phillip Newman, sir,

0:16:310:16:33

the new intern. You hired me, like, 20 minutes ago.

0:16:330:16:35

Chuckles Newman's my uncle.

0:16:350:16:37

-He's the one that told you...

-Stop talking.

0:16:370:16:38

-Very good.

-I already got a job for you.

0:16:380:16:40

OK? Bing, bang, boom. Look at that.

0:16:400:16:41

-Yeah.

-Henderson and Hinds, Marcus' old backup singers,

0:16:410:16:44

are being real dickheads about this tribute thing...

0:16:440:16:45

Oh, my God! Henderson and Hinds! The Real Deal.

0:16:450:16:48

They're the only band that got to play three songs

0:16:480:16:49

on a sing episode of Soul Train.

0:16:490:16:51

Don Cornelius was there as a witness, and I got it on VHS.

0:16:510:16:53

We don't do that here. All right?

0:16:530:16:55

-Yes, sir.

-This is a record label,

0:16:550:16:57

not a fan club.

0:16:570:16:58

I want those two old fucks there on Saturday,

0:16:580:17:00

and I want you to make that happen.

0:17:000:17:01

Got it?

0:17:010:17:02

The Real Deal is back, and they not going to stop us now.

0:17:280:17:31

Uh-huh.

0:17:310:17:32

Ohh! Shit.

0:17:320:17:34

Oh.

0:17:340:17:34

What the fuck is that, man?

0:17:350:17:37

This is a gun.

0:17:370:17:38

I never travel through Klan country without one.

0:17:380:17:40

-You got a problem with that, pops?

-Yeah,

0:17:400:17:42

I got a problem with that, man.

0:17:420:17:43

The last time I saw that gun,

0:17:430:17:45

you were pointing at me, and you were shooting it.

0:17:450:17:46

Listen here, Floyd. We ain't two old friends

0:17:460:17:48

out for some Sunday drive

0:17:480:17:49

down Memory Lane. All right?

0:17:490:17:51

Fact is, I can hardly stand the sight of your ass,

0:17:510:17:54

so you best not to provoke me.

0:17:540:17:56

Or what's going to happen?

0:17:560:17:57

There's a lot of empty road

0:17:570:17:59

between here and where we trying to go.

0:17:590:18:01

Where a nigger could disappear

0:18:010:18:02

and where nobody'd miss his black ass.

0:18:020:18:04

Well, let me see that gun.

0:18:060:18:07

Let me see it!

0:18:090:18:10

Be careful, fool.

0:18:100:18:11

You don't think I know how to hold a gun, man?

0:18:110:18:13

I'm a member of the NRA, man.

0:18:130:18:15

-GUNSHOT

-Ohh!

0:18:150:18:17

Where's... Now, what's... God damn it!

0:18:170:18:19

Oh! Shit!

0:18:190:18:21

-Damn!

-Ohh!

0:18:210:18:22

Drive! Drive! God damn it, drive!

0:18:230:18:25

-Ohh!

-Help me!

-Aaahh!

-Grab the wheel, fool!

0:18:250:18:28

Look out! Now, turn! Turn!

0:18:280:18:32

-Ohh!

-What the hell is wrong with you?!

0:18:340:18:36

Don't shoot no gun in a car!

0:18:360:18:38

You said... The safety wasn't on there.

0:18:380:18:41

Safety, my ass!

0:18:410:18:43

Safety wasn't...

0:18:430:18:44

Oh.

0:18:440:18:45

NRA?!

0:18:460:18:48

Negro Retards Association!

0:18:480:18:50

Dumb motherfucker.

0:18:500:18:52

HE GROANS

0:19:110:19:12

HE GRUNTS

0:19:140:19:15

What the fuck is that?

0:19:200:19:21

R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

0:19:220:19:24

Been a long time since we saw our name in lights.

0:19:250:19:28

What our name doing up in lights?

0:19:280:19:31

We're at the Apollo Theatre this weekend.

0:19:320:19:34

We ain't been on stage in over 30 years.

0:19:340:19:36

Now, the last thing you want to do is stink up the joint. Am I right?

0:19:360:19:39

And I got us free dinner to boot.

0:19:390:19:41

Man, we sure are lucky I kept these threads.

0:19:480:19:51

Do we look good!

0:19:510:19:53

Better hope that button don't pop off and kill nobody.

0:19:530:19:55

God damn, I wish these pants weren't squeezing my nuts so tight.

0:19:560:19:59

Maybe it'll help you hit those high notes.

0:19:590:20:01

I don't need help hitting the high notes.

0:20:010:20:04

Yeah, right. We'll see. We'll see.

0:20:040:20:06

Ha, ha! Busting out.

# Happy... #

0:23:440:23:47

Hey, Louis, are we going to talk about last night,

0:23:470:23:48

or we just going to let it fester?

0:23:480:23:51

All right. Well, I was a little rusty, OK?

0:23:520:23:55

That's a insult to rust, ain't it?

0:23:550:23:57

Well, what about you, motherfucker?

0:23:570:23:58

Last night, look like you were stuck in cement.

0:23:580:24:01

I had a hip replacement, Louis.

0:24:010:24:02

Well, you should've paid a hundred more dollars

0:24:020:24:04

and got the deluxe model with some rhythm in it.

0:24:040:24:06

cos that motherfucker you got,

0:24:060:24:08

-it ain't working.

-Oh, that's fine, man.

0:24:080:24:10

But that's not what we talking about.

0:24:100:24:11

I'm talking about Odetta.

0:24:110:24:12

Oh.

0:24:130:24:14

Louis, if I thought there was still going to be a problem between us...

0:24:140:24:17

You went where you shouldn't have gone,

0:24:170:24:19

period!

0:24:190:24:20

Now, there's some shit

0:24:200:24:22

that's just etched in stone.

0:24:220:24:23

First and foremost is

0:24:230:24:25

thou shall not dig for diamonds in another brother's mine!

0:24:250:24:30

Bullshit, man. You gotta take some responsibility here.

0:24:300:24:32

You think she didn't know, man,

0:24:320:24:33

about all of your smoking

0:24:330:24:35

and drinking and drugs

0:24:350:24:36

and other women? She knew.

0:24:360:24:37

She came running to me telling, "My man

0:24:370:24:39

"Louis did this. Louis did that. Hold me, Floyd."

0:24:390:24:42

All right, well, getting the pussy is one thing.

0:24:420:24:44

-You ain't had to marry her.

-What?

0:24:440:24:45

You'd have to be a zip-down fool

0:24:450:24:46

to let her slide through your fingers, man.

0:24:460:24:48

All right, well, if I'm a fool, then you are, too.

0:24:480:24:50

You think I don't know that? She hurt my heart, too.

0:24:500:24:52

Good! That's a cold motherfucking comfort.

0:24:520:24:56

But it's comfort, nonetheless.

0:24:560:24:59

Well, how many times did you say you was married after Odetta?

0:25:160:25:19

Four.

0:25:210:25:23

Ohh!

0:25:230:25:24

I married this girl named Estelle to get over Odetta.

0:25:240:25:27

Then I married Henrietta.

0:25:270:25:28

She wasn't no good for me.

0:25:280:25:30

Then I married Josephine.

0:25:300:25:31

She definitely wasn't no good for me because she met Carl.

0:25:310:25:34

All right. That's three.

0:25:340:25:36

Who was lucky number four?

0:25:360:25:38

Her name was Consuelo.

0:25:380:25:40

She left me and went back to Cuba.

0:25:400:25:42

Ha, ha, ha! People actually go back to Cuba?

0:25:420:25:45

She said she'd rather spend the rest of her life

0:25:450:25:48

under that dictatorship than spend another night with me.

0:25:480:25:50

How 'bout you? How come you never got married?

0:25:520:25:54

I almost hooked up with this girl down in the Philippines,

0:25:540:25:57

in Manila.

0:25:570:25:58

-Wow.

-But, uh, I couldn't learn to speak

0:25:590:26:02

Tagalog, and only English she knew

0:26:020:26:04

was, "Me love you long time for two dollar."

0:26:040:26:06

Yeah, I wasn't no good at relationships after Odetta.

0:26:080:26:11

You ever hear from her?

0:26:110:26:13

Who, Mai Mai?

0:26:130:26:14

No. Odetta.

0:26:140:26:15

Oh. No, man.

0:26:150:26:17

I heard from her, man.

0:26:180:26:19

It was sometime around Christmas.

0:26:190:26:21

You know, in that place she was living in Tulsa. You know?

0:26:270:26:28

-I saw a coyote.

-Why don't you put that thing up

0:26:280:26:30

before somebody get hurt, man?

0:26:300:26:31

How come you think I don't know how to handle

0:26:310:26:33

-no damn piece, man?

-Think?

0:26:330:26:34

I know.

0:26:340:26:36

Yeah?

0:26:360:26:38

Yeah, come fuck with me now, Louis.

0:26:380:26:41

Come on. You think I'm soft, huh?

0:26:410:26:42

Yeah. I'll bust one in your ass.

0:26:420:26:45

Floyd, you keep fucking around,

0:26:450:26:47

I'm going to stick that gun so far up your ass,

0:26:470:26:49

you going to taste gunpowder every time you talk.

0:26:590:27:00

I'm sweating. My hand's wet.

0:27:000:27:02

0:27:020:27:04

You warm? You hot?

0:27:040:27:05

You dizzy? You light-headed?

0:27:050:27:07

Louis, I swear I would never want to hurt you, man.

0:27:070:27:09

I thought about killing you, but I'd never want to hurt you.

No, I didn't, Lou. Don't start that...

0:31:150:31:16

We barely got offstage

0:31:160:31:17

when you ran your ass back out there.

-I don't care what they wanted.

That shit was unprofessional.

0:31:450:31:47

you're about to find yourself another room tonight.

0:31:470:31:49

You know those little blue pills make you go blind, right?

0:31:490:31:51

Mmm, mmm.

0:31:510:31:53

Don't call me when you get that four-hour erection.

Oh. Aah!

0:32:040:32:06

Yeah, give it to me.

0:32:060:32:07

Those little pills, give me strength.

0:32:080:32:10

A little strength.

0:32:100:32:11

Ugh!

0:32:110:32:13

I'm going to fuck your brains out.

0:32:130:32:14

Oh! Oh, you're heavy.

0:32:140:32:17

Uh,

0:32:190:32:21

what's wrong, baby?

0:32:210:32:23

Nothing.

0:32:230:32:24

I just, uh, you know, I...

0:32:240:32:27

I just never been with someone like you before.

0:32:270:32:30

It's true what they say. But let me tell you something.

Floyd Henderson going to be nice and gentle.

Your first taste of dark meat

No, I didn't mean that.

0:32:380:32:39

It's just, uh, you know,

0:32:390:32:42

I've never been with someone so old.

0:32:420:32:45

Old?

0:32:450:32:46

You ain't no teen queen your damn self.

0:32:460:32:49

Huh.

Come on, come on, come on.

0:32:500:32:52

Come on, mama. Come here, baby.

0:32:520:32:53

Baby, baby. Look here.

0:32:530:32:55

Let's take our decades of sexual experience

0:32:550:32:58

and combine them for one night

0:32:580:32:59

of exploration and bliss, can we do that?

0:32:590:33:01

I won't disappoint you.

0:33:010:33:03

I won't disappoint you.

0:33:030:33:05

All right.

0:33:050:33:07

That's what I'm talking about.

0:33:070:33:09

I want to suck one of them titties.

0:33:090:33:11

Oh, yeah? Well, I got something to show you.

0:33:110:33:13

Ooh. Ooh, hoo.

0:33:130:33:14

I'm so hot, I'm about to fuck myself.

0:33:140:33:16

Bite my lip off.

0:33:180:33:19

Oh. Look!

0:33:190:33:20

Oh, shoot, I'm leaking, girl.

0:33:200:33:22

Tonight I ain't got no control like that no more.

0:33:220:33:24

Now, I hope you don't mind a little hair.

0:33:240:33:27

Baby, I found my sexual awakening in the '60s.

0:33:270:33:31

Nothing I like better than a big old fluffy...

0:33:310:33:34

Damn, girl.

0:33:360:33:38

That's a whole bunch of hair you got down there.

0:33:380:33:39

Yeah, I call it the natural look.

0:33:390:33:41

You sick?

0:33:420:33:44

I know it's big.

0:33:440:33:45

You need a pick.

0:33:450:33:47

You want me to shave it?

0:33:470:33:48

We ain't got the time or apparatus for that type of job.

0:33:480:33:52

OK, disregard.

0:33:520:33:53

Oh!

0:33:530:33:54

-Oh!

-Oh!

0:33:540:33:56

Look who's coming to dinner.

0:33:560:33:58

Right on time, ain't it?

0:33:580:34:00

They call me Mr Tibbs.

0:34:000:34:01

Oh.

0:34:010:34:03

You know what I'm going to do for you?

0:34:030:34:04

What you fixing to do?

0:34:040:34:06

You ever had a velveteen rub?

0:34:060:34:07

A velveteen rub.

0:34:070:34:10

Ain't... Ain't no cheese involved, is there?

0:34:100:34:12

Because I'm lactose intolerant.

0:34:120:34:14

Oh, yeah.

0:34:200:34:22

HE SCREAMS

0:34:250:34:28

Ooh!

0:34:300:34:32

You're choking my chicken!

0:34:320:34:33

Ugh!

0:34:450:34:46

Ugh.

0:34:470:34:48

That's quite a show you got going

0:34:480:34:50

0:34:500:34:52

-I'm right here, baby.

0:34:580:35:01

You ready for some more?

0:35:010:35:02

Yeah, come here.

0:35:020:35:03

-Come here. Come here.

-Hi.

0:35:050:35:09

Think about that, boy.

0:35:090:35:11

There's my stallion.

0:35:110:35:13

Huh?

0:35:130:35:15

-I missed you.

-Oh, you missed me?

0:35:150:35:16

Mmm-hmm.

0:35:160:35:17

-Mmm.

-You need a little air on this thing.

0:35:170:35:19

Yeah.

0:35:190:35:21

Oh, you bad boy.

0:35:210:35:24

God damn.

0:35:240:35:25

You like that, huh?

0:35:250:35:27

I'm your little kitty cat.

0:35:350:35:36

You little whore.

0:35:360:35:37

You're one to talk.

0:35:370:35:38

Oh, did you take out your teeth for him?

0:35:380:35:41

You watch how you talk to your mama.

0:35:410:35:43

Please, you can't talk to me like that.

0:35:430:35:44

You're not my daddy.

0:35:440:35:45

That's right, who's your daddy?

0:35:450:35:47

-You're my daddy.

-Your big daddy.

Oh.

0:35:530:35:54

What are you thinking, Mama?

0:35:560:35:57

You ruined everything.

0:35:570:35:59

-I hate you.

-You little brat.

0:35:590:36:01

You're a dirty... All right, I love you.

0:36:010:36:03

-Mmm.

-Call me a lot of times.

0:36:030:36:04

Mama, what is wrong with you?

0:36:040:36:06

-I renounce you. You're a whore.

-Aah!

0:36:060:36:09

-I'm a whore?

-Yeah.

0:36:090:36:10

0:36:530:36:54

0:36:540:36:56

Yeah, there's something you can do. We need money.

0:36:560:36:58

'If we don't get no money,

0:36:580:36:59

'we ain't going to make it to the Apollo.'

0:36:590:37:00

I'm not sure what the procedure for that would be.

0:37:000:37:03

I mean, there's just a lot of red tape here.

0:37:030:37:05

Uh, how you doing, ma'am?

0:39:300:39:31

My name is Floyd Henderson. This is my...

0:39:310:39:33

I know who you are.

0:39:330:39:35

Guess you didn't hear about the funeral.

0:39:350:39:36

Funeral? Odetta...

0:39:360:39:39

When did she pass?

0:39:390:39:40

Well, she got sick right after Christmas.

0:39:400:39:42

After that, it went pretty fast.

0:39:420:39:45

So why'd you come to see her?

0:39:450:39:47

What, she owe you money or something?

0:39:470:39:48

-Oh, no.

-We just in the neighbourhood.

0:39:480:39:51

Cleo, I can't find the bologna!

0:39:510:39:53

I'll be there in a minute!

0:39:530:39:55

Hurry up!

0:39:550:39:57

Well, if my mama wasn't dead, I'd tell her you stopped by.

0:39:570:40:01

Cleo!

0:40:010:40:02

-Just hold up a second.

-C-L-E-O!

0:40:020:40:05

-What the hell you want?

-I'm sorry...

0:40:050:40:06

I told you this was a bad idea to come here.

0:40:060:40:07

-Come on, man. Don't go there.

-Let's just go, OK?

0:40:070:40:10

How old you think she is?

0:40:100:40:11

27, 28?

0:40:110:40:12

I don't know how old she is, and I don't care. Let's go.

0:40:120:40:14

Floyd Chillax, let me see something.

0:40:140:40:15

What are you doing?

0:40:150:40:17

Floyd, what the hell are you looking for?

0:40:170:40:19

Damn it.

0:40:190:40:20

I'm just confirming a suspicion. That's all I'm doing.

0:40:200:40:23

September 14, 1981. Bingo.

0:40:230:40:26

It kind of works itself out, don't it?

0:40:260:40:28

Put it back.

But literary scholars sometimes like to attribute it to TS Eliot.

Were you here when she was dying of that cancer?

-Yes, ma'am. We are staying.

0:43:270:43:31

OK, then.

0:43:330:43:34

Hell, it's what Mama would've wanted.

0:43:350:43:37

Oh, yeah. That's Odetta's child, all right.

0:43:370:43:40

OK, I put some sheets on the bed in the guest room for you guys.

0:43:470:43:51

Thank you.

Sure is. Your mother's favourite.

0:43:550:43:57

So how come you guys only put out that one album?

0:43:590:44:02

Well, when we wasn't fighting over your mother,

0:44:040:44:06

we had a problem in our record sales.

0:44:060:44:07

Yeah, as in we didn't sell any.

OK.

0:44:220:44:25

0:44:250:44:26

She said,

0:44:270:44:29

being on the road with y'all

0:44:290:44:31

was some of the best times of her life.

0:44:310:44:34

Oh, good days. Good days.

0:44:340:44:38

I wish I could've seen that.

0:44:380:44:41

Say, why don't you come to Memphis with us?

0:44:410:44:45

-Memphis?

-Yeah.

0:44:450:44:47

-What?

-We got a gig.

0:44:470:44:49

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Floyd, Floyd. The girl got a life.

0:44:490:44:51

She ain't got time to be ripping,

0:44:510:44:52

running up and down the road with two old niggers.

0:44:520:44:53

Why not?

0:44:530:44:55

Memphis is fun. We always have fun in Memphis.

0:44:550:44:58

You'll enjoy it. Trust me.

0:44:580:44:59

Fun? Look like I got time for fun?

0:44:590:45:02

Nah.

0:45:030:45:04

Hey, Louis.

0:45:120:45:14

You know, Cleo was telling me

0:45:140:45:17

that Odetta never told her nothing about her father,

0:45:170:45:19

not even his name.

0:45:190:45:21

But she did say he was a musician.

0:45:210:45:23

You ain't said nothing stupid to the girl, have you?

0:45:230:45:24

Like what?

0:45:240:45:25

Oh, like, uh,

0:45:250:45:28

"Cleo, you know, I'm your daddy."

0:45:280:45:29

Well, I'm still feeling out the situation.

0:45:290:45:32

What the fuck was that

0:45:320:45:33

"You ought to come to Memphis with us" shit?

0:45:330:45:35

Now that, right there, that's a recipe for disaster.

0:45:350:45:38

Louis, Louis, I know this ain't easy for you.

0:45:380:45:41

But I never thought I'd have a child.

0:45:410:45:44

Now I'm part of this big old circle called life.

0:45:440:45:46

A piece of Floyd Henderson, man, might be here to live on,

0:45:460:45:51

and maybe for ever.

0:45:510:45:52

If you don't shut up and go to sleep,

0:45:520:45:54

a big piece of Floyd Henderson ass might not wake up in the morning.

0:45:540:45:57

Oh, Louis, Louis.

0:45:570:45:59

I respect the fact that you want

0:45:590:46:00

0:46:270:46:28

-Uh, I...

-Nasty son of a bitch!

0:46:280:46:31

Give me some covers. I'm going to sleep on the floor.

0:46:310:46:32

Shit.

0:46:320:46:33

Go on, then. Sleep on the floor. Nobody wants you, Louis.

0:46:330:46:36

I don't like boy pussy no way.

0:46:360:46:38

I hope your back hurt like a motherfucker.

0:46:380:46:39

Better my back than my asshole.

0:48:310:48:32

No, this is Louis.

0:48:320:48:33

Mr Hinds.

0:48:330:48:35

It's Phillip Newman of FC Management.

0:48:350:48:37

How are you, man? I'm a huge fan.

0:48:370:48:39

So?

0:48:390:48:40

So...

0:48:400:48:42

I think I've solved your cash flow problems, my man.

0:48:420:48:46

I've withdrawn 10,000

0:48:460:48:49

from my old parents' savings account

0:48:490:48:50

to tide you over until things get sorted out.

0:48:500:48:52

Who'd you say you was again?

0:48:520:48:53

'Phillip.'

0:48:530:48:55

I wrote you letters when the man had you

0:48:550:48:56

locked down in the pen, you know?

0:48:560:48:58

I know you're innocent. Shit ain't right.

0:48:580:49:00

OK, Phillip, um, look here.

0:49:010:49:04

We're on our way to Memphis.

0:49:040:49:05

Um, why don't you meet us

0:49:050:49:07

at, um, the fountain at Peabody Hotel,

0:49:070:49:10

'5:00?'

0:49:100:49:13

Memphis. All right!

0:49:130:49:15

I'm hungrier than a mo...

0:49:160:49:18

There you are, girl. You make up your mind?

0:49:180:49:20

You want to go to Memphis with us, or not?

0:49:200:49:22

What you going to do?

0:49:220:49:23

What happened?

0:49:260:49:27

Nothing. Nothing happened.

0:49:290:49:31

Nothing happened.

0:49:320:49:33

-No.

-Uh-uh, uh-uh.

0:49:360:49:37

Let him get his whupping.

0:49:370:49:39

LESTER LAUGHS

0:49:390:49:40

Why you hit her?

0:49:490:49:51

The hell you going to do about it, man?

0:49:510:49:54

I'm the nigger with the gun, man.

0:49:540:49:56

Oh, shit.

0:49:560:49:57

Damn! Ugh!

0:49:570:50:00

-Aah!

-Come on.

0:50:000:50:01

Get your albino lke Turner ass up, uh-huh. Come on.

0:50:010:50:05

Aah! OK! Oh, shit! Aah!

0:50:050:50:09

My follicles, man!

0:50:090:50:10

Look her in the eye and say "I'm sorry I hit you,

0:50:100:50:13

"and I'm never going to put my hands on you again."

0:50:130:50:15

-My bad, baby. I ain't...

-Say what I told you to say!

0:50:150:50:17

I'm sorry I hit you. I ain't never going to do it again.

0:50:170:50:19

Now, say you're sorry for sampling my bass line

0:50:190:50:22

and for stomping on my partner's record.

0:50:220:50:24

I'm sorry for sampling your bass line

0:50:240:50:27

-and stomping on your Real Deal record.

-OK.

0:50:270:50:29

Now, we taking a road trip, and we need some gas money.

0:50:290:50:31

I ain't got no money, man!

0:50:310:50:33

Can you help us? I saw you out there selling that shit.

0:50:330:50:35

It's weed, it ain't crack man! I ain't got...

0:50:350:50:37

-Give me the money!

-OK, OK.

0:50:370:50:39

There's money in my shorts...

0:50:390:50:40

Ain't nobody reaching in your drawers, get it out!

0:50:400:50:42

OK, OK.

0:50:420:50:43

I got to reach around my meat, man.

0:50:430:50:45

Here. Take it.

0:50:480:50:50

Take it.

0:50:500:50:51

Oh, damn. My hair hurts. Take it, man! Aah!

0:50:520:50:56

-Ow! You're breaking my arm!

-Oh, hush.

0:50:560:50:58

That's just a little Chinese submission hold.

0:50:580:51:00

This is what it feels like when I break your arm.

0:51:000:51:03

BONES CRACK, LESTER SCREAMS

0:51:030:51:05

-Shit!

-Break his arm.

0:51:050:51:06

Oh, you old bastard!

0:51:060:51:08

I know motherfuckers like you, Lester.

0:51:080:51:10

Used to see them on the yard every day.

0:51:100:51:13

You'd better hope you don't never go inside

0:51:130:51:16

because you, you straight up bitch material.

0:51:160:51:19

What about my car, man?

0:51:190:51:20

What about your car?

0:51:200:51:22

Oh, shit.

0:51:220:51:24

I ain't got no clothes on.

0:51:240:51:25

This is bullshit.

0:51:250:51:26

So what? You run around with your drawers

0:51:260:51:28

hanging off your ass anyway.

0:51:280:51:29

-I wasn't really going to shoot you!

-Get the fuck out of here.

0:51:290:51:32

See, I'm the nigger with the gun now.

0:51:320:51:34

You better hope my arm don't get better.

0:51:340:51:36

I'm going to learn karate and kick your ass!

0:51:360:51:39

Fuck you!

0:51:390:51:40

It was a good thing you stepped in when you did what you did, partner,

0:51:420:51:45

because if I'd have got a piece of him,

0:51:450:51:47

I'd have fucked his shit up entirely, and you know that.

0:51:470:51:49

Come on.

0:51:490:51:51

I'm too old to be tussling with the motherf...

0:51:510:51:52

I'd have shot him. I'd have popped...

0:51:520:51:55

I'm six, seven years older. I'd have, like, tussled...

0:51:550:51:57

'Welcome back to the Soul Patrol.

0:52:010:52:03

'I'm Isaac Hayes.

0:52:030:52:04

'I want to give a shout-out

0:52:040:52:06

'to Floyd Henderson and Louis Hinds, The Real Deal.

0:52:060:52:09

'They're back in Memphis tonight performing at the House Of Soul.'

0:52:530:52:56

Mr Henderson, Mr Hinds, let me just start off by saying...

0:52:560:52:58

Thank you.

0:52:580:53:00

-What's up?

-Phillip, tonight we're playing at the House of Soul.

0:53:040:53:08

Make sure you be there, baby.

0:53:080:53:09

Right on.

0:53:090:53:12

Hello. Welcome to the Peabody. How can I help you?

0:53:120:53:15

You can help me by giving me

0:53:150:53:17

three of your best doggone suites, baby.

0:53:170:53:19

Well, it'll be my pleasure to assist you today.

0:53:190:53:22

May I see some identification, please?

0:53:220:53:23

OK.

0:53:230:53:24

Right there.

0:53:240:53:25

Go to hell, Louis.

0:53:250:53:27

Mr Henderson?

0:53:270:53:30

It is I.

0:53:300:53:31

ALARM BEEPS

0:53:310:53:34

Will you excuse me for just a minute, please?

0:53:370:53:39

OK.

0:53:390:53:40

Henderson.

0:53:420:53:44

-Ahh, I-I'm sorry, Mr Henderson.

-Henderson.

0:53:440:53:46

We're unable to accommodate you.

0:53:460:53:49

Perhaps we could recommend another hotel.

0:53:490:53:51

For what, man? I'm in Memphis.

0:53:510:53:52

I want to stay at the Peabody.

0:53:520:53:54

Yes, sir, I understand you've stayed with us before,

0:53:540:53:56

and apparently, that's the problem.

0:53:560:53:58

It seems that the last time you stayed here...

0:53:580:54:00

March 12, 1978, to be exact...

0:54:000:54:03

you hosted a party, during which the room

0:54:030:54:06

and several other areas of the hotel

0:54:060:54:08

-sustained extensive damage.

-Uh-oh.

0:54:080:54:10

I don't recollect nothing like that.

0:54:100:54:12

I think that's the night Sly and Bootsy

0:54:120:54:14

came by with the fire-eater.

0:54:140:54:16

Is that the one with the snake?

0:54:160:54:18

-That's the one.

-Hmm.

0:54:180:54:20

Perhaps you could put those rooms in the name of Louis Hinds.

0:54:200:54:23

Yeah, perhaps.

0:54:230:54:25

Louis Hinds, we'll try that.

0:54:250:54:27

ALARM BLARES

0:54:300:54:31

I'm sorry you had to see that, Linda.

0:54:340:54:36

What's on there? Let me see that shit.

0:54:360:54:37

I want to see what's on there.

0:54:370:54:40

I need four rooms, Don.

0:54:400:54:42

Your best available.

0:54:420:54:44

DOOR OPENS

0:54:570:55:00

Oh, hey, guys.

0:55:000:55:01

Your tailor gave me several choices for tonight.

0:55:010:55:03

He said he's going to stop by around 7:30.

0:55:030:55:05

What the fuck?

0:55:050:55:06

Did you catch the sale over at the Build-A-Pimp?

0:55:060:55:08

You like that? It's fly, huh?

0:55:080:55:10

It's a get-down, get-down. It's live. It's funky.

0:55:100:55:13

And I think I'm going to get some poonanny.

0:55:130:55:14

To be honest with you,

0:55:140:55:16

I haven't been laid since Friends was on television.

0:55:160:55:18

So this is my night.

0:55:180:55:19

You sure that ain't one of your children?

0:55:190:55:22

You going to sing real nice tonight.

0:55:240:55:26

Who's the girl singer?

0:55:260:55:27

FLOYD LAUGHS

0:55:270:55:29

Oh, my goodness! Look at here! Oh, man.

0:55:300:55:34

-Hello, Louis. Good to see you.

-You good, man?

0:55:340:55:36

Claudette. How you doing, girl?

0:55:430:55:46

I know you still ain't upset

0:55:460:55:48

about what happened in Baltimore that...

0:55:480:55:49

Oh! What's wrong with you, woman?

0:55:490:55:51

You going straight to hell, Floyd Henderson.

0:55:510:55:53

What you laughing at?

0:55:550:55:56

-You want some, too?

-No.

0:55:560:55:59

# Fuck you. #

0:55:590:56:00

Eee.

0:56:000:56:02

# Fuck you, fuck you... #

0:56:020:56:03

Now we have no girl singer.

0:56:030:56:05

We just got to find a replacement, that's all.

0:56:050:56:07

It's too late.

0:56:070:56:08

Cleo.

0:56:090:56:10

You know all our songs, right?

0:56:100:56:12

Ho, ho, ho. No offence, man,

0:56:120:56:15

but I'm not playing with no rank amateur.

0:56:150:56:17

Come on, Wolfman, this ain't no rank amateur, man.

0:56:170:56:19

This Odetta Whitfield's daughter, man.

0:56:190:56:20

You got to recognise.

0:56:200:56:22

Shit. Let's roll, then, baby.

0:56:220:56:24

Come on in. Check this place out.

I could get used to this.

Not that money going to make up for the lost time between us

1:00:591:01:01

or nothing like that.

1:01:011:01:03

Lost time?

1:01:031:01:04

You have to understand,

1:01:041:01:05

Odetta never told me nothing about you.

1:01:051:01:08

Had I known about you from the beginning,

1:01:081:01:10

-I'd have been here from the start.

-Whoa, whoa.

1:01:101:01:11

-Floyd...

-She never said nothing to me about you.

1:01:111:01:12

You're not my father, Floyd.

1:01:121:01:14

You're not listening.

1:01:141:01:15

See, the thing you... what's that? Say what?

1:01:151:01:17

You're not my father.

1:01:171:01:18

I-I'm not?

1:01:181:01:20

No.

1:01:201:01:21

How do you know?

1:01:211:01:23

Because he knows who I am.

1:01:231:01:25

Or he did.

1:01:251:01:27

I mean, for all I know,

1:01:271:01:28

he could be dead.

1:01:281:01:29

I get a little money from him every once in a while.

1:01:311:01:33

It's a blind trust he set up years ago.

1:01:331:01:36

Something to do with his music royalties.

1:01:361:01:38

Music royalties?

1:01:381:01:41

BANGING

1:01:421:01:43

Oh!

1:01:431:01:44

You knocked up my wife, motherfucker.

1:01:451:01:47

Ooh. You stole her from me first.

1:01:471:01:50

What is wrong with you?

1:01:501:01:52

Whoo!

1:01:521:01:54

You lost your...

1:01:541:01:55

You didn't tell Cleo, did you?

1:01:551:01:57

No, I didn't tell her.

1:01:571:01:58

I should've told her, though.

1:01:581:01:59

I'll bet you laughing your ass off, wasn't you?

1:01:591:02:02

Going around, talking about I'm the girl's daddy

1:02:021:02:03

and big round circle of life, all that bullshit.

1:02:031:02:06

Giggle, giggle, motherfucker.

1:02:061:02:07

Well, just a little bit.

1:02:071:02:09

Floyd...

1:02:111:02:12

Look, Floyd...

1:02:121:02:14

Floyd, put it down. Put it down!

1:02:141:02:15

Dawg, come on!

1:02:151:02:18

You need to quit before you get hurt.

1:02:181:02:19

Oh! Oh! Whoa! Oh!

1:02:191:02:22

-Ugh!

-Look, Floyd,

1:02:221:02:25

I didn't mean for it to happen, all right?

1:02:251:02:27

You know how she was.

1:02:271:02:28

Come here. Come here.

1:02:281:02:31

Come on, man. Stop acting a fool.

1:02:311:02:33

You all right?

1:02:341:02:35

Aw, shit. Quit acting a fool!

1:02:351:02:37

Fucking dad!

1:02:401:02:43

What the fuck is wrong with you?

1:02:431:02:46

Time out. Time out.

1:03:061:03:09

-Oh.

-INHALER DISCHARGES

1:03:091:03:12

Still got a little pop in your punch there, partner.

1:03:131:03:15

Pop this, motherfucker!

1:03:151:03:17

Oh!

1:03:171:03:19

Ooh.

1:03:191:03:20

Shit. Ugh.

1:03:201:03:22

You dirty motherfucker,

1:03:221:03:23

hitting me in the nuts.

1:03:231:03:25

Ooh! Shit.

1:03:251:03:28

Louis, you just can't keep whooping on my ass.

1:03:281:03:31

I'm a motherfucking man, baby.

1:03:311:03:33

I'm a motherfucking man.

1:03:331:03:35

BOTH WHIMPER

1:03:351:03:38

Louis, how come you won't see your own daughter?

1:03:381:03:41

Oh, motherfucker, I wanted to see her,

1:03:411:03:43

but, you know...

1:03:431:03:45

It's time... After a while,

1:03:451:03:48

you know, it's just... it's just too much.

1:03:481:03:51

Why didn't O tell her?

1:03:511:03:53

Why didn't Odetta tell her, man?

1:03:531:03:55

What was she going to tell her, huh?

1:03:551:03:57

That her daddy was a alcoholic dopehead convict

1:03:571:04:00

that fucked up everything he touched, hmm?

1:04:001:04:02

No, no.

1:04:021:04:04

She was better off without me.

1:04:041:04:05

Oh, shit.

1:04:051:04:07

Anyhow, it's too late now.

1:04:071:04:08

Uh-uh.

1:04:081:04:09

It was a mistake getting to know her.

1:04:091:04:12

-Lou...

-What?

1:04:121:04:13

What is wrong with you? You having a seizure?

1:04:131:04:15

What? What?

1:04:151:04:17

Oh.

1:04:171:04:19

Oh. Cleo.

1:04:191:04:20

-Cleo, wait. Ow!

-Excuse me.

1:04:201:04:22

God damn it. Wait!

1:04:221:04:24

Let me talk to... Ow!

1:04:241:04:26

Move, God damn it!

1:04:261:04:27

Come here, Cleo!

1:04:271:04:29

Call the police.

1:04:291:04:30

Hey, yo, white boy.

1:04:331:04:34

You really in the music business?

1:04:341:04:36

Why, do you have a mix tape?

1:04:361:04:37

Shut the fuck up, white boy!

1:04:371:04:38

And stop sweating so goddamn much.

1:04:381:04:41

You smell like bacon.

1:04:411:04:42

And I'm a Muslim on Saturdays.

1:04:421:04:44

Fucking wrong with you, huh?

1:04:441:04:46

How you white and got a afro?

1:04:461:04:48

That ain't cool.

1:04:481:04:50

Damn, my head hurt!

1:04:501:04:52

Hey, there go Cleo. There go Cleo.

1:04:521:04:54

-CLEO:

-Taxi.

1:04:541:04:56

-LESTER:

-There go my baby, right there. Where she going?

1:04:561:04:59

-TAXI DRIVER:

-Where to, honey?

1:04:591:05:00

Cleo!

1:05:001:05:01

Oh, hell, yeah. There go that old Snoop Dogg-looking motherfucker.

1:05:011:05:06

Real Deal, they fitting to be real dead!

1:05:061:05:09

I'm coming for you, old man!

1:05:091:05:11

Hey, yo, Les, let them old motherfuckers have it, man.

1:05:111:05:13

I'm going for it. Go for it, nigger.

1:05:131:05:14

Get them motherfuckers.

1:05:141:05:16

-FLOYD:

-Hey, hey, hey.

1:05:161:05:18

Come on, now. You know I'm the only who drives the Mothership, man.

1:05:181:05:20

Watch this shit with Lester, he about to kill on these motherfuckers.

1:05:201:05:23

That's how we live, we do it like that.

1:05:231:05:25

HORN HONKS

1:05:251:05:26

-PHILLIP:

-Louis!

1:05:261:05:28

I'm back!

1:05:281:05:30

Gun!

1:05:301:05:32

Yeah!

1:05:321:05:33

HE SCREAMS

1:05:351:05:36

Oh, shit! Motherfucking Lester got fucked up!

1:05:361:05:40

God damn!

1:05:401:05:41

LESTER WHIMPERS

1:05:411:05:42

-I'm out of this motherfucker...

-What about Lester, man?

-Fuck Lester.

1:05:421:05:45

Yeah, fuck Lester!

1:05:451:05:48

You don't even know Lester, man.

1:05:481:05:50

Aaah!

1:05:521:05:53

Why you run over me, man?!

1:05:531:05:56

You old dirty bastard!

1:05:561:05:59

Old Jim Brown, Fred Williamson,

1:06:011:06:04

two-the-hard-way motherfuckers!

1:06:041:06:07

I'll kill you, I swear...

1:06:071:06:09

Aah! Shit!

1:06:091:06:11

Let me kill you one time at least, man!

1:06:111:06:15

You done fucked up the Mothership. I ought to stab you in your throat.

1:06:151:06:17

Fuck you! Aah!

1:06:171:06:18

POLICE SIREN You hear that?

1:06:181:06:20

Shoot that motherfucker, Louis.

1:06:201:06:22

Get your hands up!

1:06:251:06:27

I can't, nigger. My arm's in a brace.

1:06:271:06:29

Drop the weapon now! Come on!

1:06:291:06:32

This is my first time ever being in here.

1:06:371:06:39

Quiet, please.

1:06:391:06:40

This filthy-ass motherfucking place,

1:06:461:06:48

man, got me itching.

1:06:481:06:49

Yo, turnkey!

1:06:511:06:53

Come on and let me out of this motherfucker!

1:06:531:06:55

You might want to wrap your mind around the fact

1:06:551:06:57

that we're going to miss that show.

1:06:571:06:58

Fuck you talking about, man?

1:06:581:07:00

We gotta be in New York tomorrow night.

1:07:001:07:02

Uh-uh. Not me.

1:07:021:07:04

I've had enough. I'm done.

1:07:041:07:05

What, you're walking out on me, Louis?

1:07:051:07:07

Look, Floyd, I was doing just fine

1:07:071:07:10

before you showed up at my door.

1:07:101:07:11

That's the thanks I get

1:07:111:07:12

for pulling you out of that fucking rat hole.

1:07:121:07:14

You was just sitting up in there,

1:07:141:07:15

just sitting there waiting to die.

1:07:151:07:16

Negro, please.

1:07:161:07:17

You ain't no different from me,

1:07:171:07:19

Especially since your nephew put your senile ass out to pasture

1:07:191:07:22

and stole your business.

1:07:221:07:23

Fuck you, Louis.

1:07:231:07:25

Crawl back under that damn rock you've been living.

1:07:251:07:28

I don't need you.

1:07:281:07:29

I'll do this shit by my damn self.

1:07:291:07:31

Yo! Turnkey!

1:07:311:07:35

Come on and let me out of this mother.

1:07:351:07:36

I've had enough, man. I want my lawyer.

1:07:361:07:38

Relax, relax.

1:07:381:07:39

You ain't going to need no lawyer.

1:07:391:07:41

Witnesses say your story checks out,

1:07:411:07:43

so you, sir, are good to go.

1:07:431:07:46

Yeah.

1:07:461:07:47

HE GROANS

1:07:471:07:49

Whoa. Hold on there, Chuck Berry.

1:07:491:07:52

You're going to need a lawyer.

1:07:521:07:54

Seems crossing state lines is in violation of his parole,

1:07:541:07:57

Not to mention possession of firearms

1:07:571:07:59

and driving without a license.

1:07:591:08:01

No license?

1:08:011:08:02

Step back for a minute.

1:08:031:08:04

I hope your ass rot up in here,

1:08:061:08:08

you criminal-bound motherfucker, you.

1:08:081:08:10

As Lao-Tzu says, "Let things flow forward as they may."

1:08:101:08:15

And I'm going to let it flow, too, baby.

1:08:151:08:17

And I got some Blackanese philosophical shit for your ass, pal.

1:08:171:08:22

You get by, Lou, but you don't get away.

1:08:221:08:24

You sit in shit, you start to smell like it,

1:08:241:08:26

so check the crack of your ass.

1:08:261:08:28

Here's something else for you.

1:08:281:08:30

Here go her number.

1:08:301:08:32

Call her...Daddy.

1:08:331:08:35

Fuck him, man!

1:08:371:08:38

Let's get on out of this motherfucker.

1:08:381:08:40

He ain't worth two damn flies smashed.

1:08:401:08:42

Hmph!

1:08:531:08:54

Hey. Yo!

1:09:021:09:04

Can I make a phone call?

1:09:071:09:08

'You walking out on me, Louis?'

1:09:231:09:26

I've had enough. I'm done.

1:09:261:09:27

'You all right, man?'

1:09:271:09:28

Um, yeah, yeah. I'm all right.

1:09:281:09:30

You're not all right. You can't hardly breathe.

1:09:301:09:32

You need a chest X-ray.

1:09:321:09:33

'I ain't trying to make no comeback.'

1:09:331:09:36

I'm gone, and I want to stay gone.

1:09:361:09:37

That's the thanks I get for pulling you out of that rat hole,

1:09:371:09:40

just sitting there waiting to die...

1:09:401:09:41

'Sitting there waiting to die...'

1:09:411:09:43

-Die, die...

-It's too late.

1:09:431:09:44

Is there a doctor in the house?

1:09:441:09:46

Keep it short.

1:09:481:09:50

-'Hey...'

-Hello?

-'..it's Cleo. Please leave a message.'

1:09:501:09:54

BEEP

1:09:561:09:57

Cleo...um, this is, uh, Louis.

1:09:571:10:01

Louis Hinds.

1:10:011:10:03

Your father.

1:10:031:10:05

Wow, um, feels funny saying that.

1:10:061:10:09

I've, um, I've never said it before.

1:10:091:10:11

Um...

1:10:111:10:12

Listen...

1:10:121:10:14

HE SIGHS

1:10:141:10:16

I didn't mean what I said.

1:10:161:10:18

I was...

1:10:181:10:19

Odetta was the love of my life.

1:10:221:10:25

The worst thing that ever happened to me

1:10:251:10:27

was losing her and you.

1:10:271:10:31

But you turned out great.

1:10:311:10:32

She did a wonderful job with you.

1:10:321:10:35

You know your mother was an amazing woman.

1:10:351:10:38

And I just want you to know

1:10:381:10:40

I'm really, really glad I met you.

1:10:401:10:45

And I wish I... BEEP

1:10:451:10:47

Yo.

1:10:511:10:52

All right.

1:10:551:10:57

GUARD WHISTLES

1:10:571:10:59

MUTTERED CHATTER

1:11:021:11:05

What the fuck do you think you're doing?

1:11:051:11:08

-GUN CLICKS

-Hmm?

-Busting your ass out of jail.

1:11:081:11:10

What the fuck does it look like I'm doing?

1:11:101:11:12

Back up, Red. Get your keys out.

1:11:121:11:14

-Open that cell, OK?

-Deputy, don't listen to him.

1:11:141:11:16

He will not shoot you. Not on purpose anyway.

1:11:161:11:18

Don't let him get you fucked up, Red.

1:11:181:11:21

I'll kill you disco-dead.

1:11:211:11:22

Now open that doggone cell, man.

1:11:221:11:24

Stop shaking. If you shake, I'm going to start shaking.

1:11:241:11:26

Next thing you know, kapow!

1:11:261:11:28

Go on in.

1:11:281:11:29

Now hand him the keys.

1:11:291:11:30

Hand them to him.

1:11:301:11:32

-OK?

-Floyd...

1:11:321:11:33

are you sure you want to do this?

1:11:331:11:35

Does everything gotta be a fucking argument with you?

1:11:351:11:37

God damn! Come on out of there!

1:11:371:11:39

Close the door, Lou. Lock it up.

1:11:391:11:41

I'm a hostage.

1:11:411:11:43

You're going to be a dead hostage

1:11:431:11:44

if you don't shut the fuck up.

1:11:441:11:45

Now look here, Red.

1:11:471:11:49

I like you, almost.

1:11:491:11:50

You call anybody outside your mama, kapow.

1:11:501:11:53

OK?

1:11:531:11:55

Let's get out of here.

1:11:551:11:56

Anybody following us, man?

1:11:591:12:00

Not yet.

1:12:001:12:01

But you can bet your ass they will be.

1:12:011:12:04

Lou, we gotta dump the Mothership, man. We gotta dump it.

1:12:041:12:06

You'd abandon the Mothership?

1:12:061:12:08

We're fugitives from the law.

1:12:081:12:09

We gotta start thinking like it.

1:12:091:12:11

We're not fugitives, OJ.

1:12:111:12:13

You're a fugitive. I'm a hostage.

1:12:131:12:15

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

1:12:151:12:17

FLOYD LAUGHS

1:12:171:12:19

Wait, wait, wait. Hold, hold, hold, hold, hold, hold.

1:12:221:12:24

Look at that right there, man.

1:12:241:12:26

Ain't that Lester's car?

1:12:261:12:29

Motherfuckers.

1:12:291:12:31

We're hungry, man. Come up with some baked chicken or something.

1:12:351:12:39

They're at it again.

1:12:451:12:46

CAR HONKS

1:12:461:12:50

Oh, shit! Lester's car!

1:12:501:12:52

KNOCKING

1:12:591:13:02

-You hear that?

-What?

1:13:021:13:04

KNOCKING

1:13:041:13:05

That.

1:13:051:13:07

Oh, my God! Oh, God, no! Oh, God...

1:13:071:13:11

Mr Hinds. Mr Henderson.

1:13:121:13:14

It's so good to see you.

1:13:141:13:15

Oh, my God.

1:13:151:13:17

Oh, it was so hot in there. You have no idea.

1:13:171:13:20

If there's anything I can get you,

1:13:201:13:22

like a latte, I'm here for you guys.

1:13:221:13:24

But first I really have to pee,

1:13:241:13:25

so I'm just going to hop on out.

1:13:251:13:27

If you could give me a hand out of here.

1:13:271:13:29

I've been locked in there,

1:13:291:13:30

and they've had the woofers going all day.

1:13:301:13:32

Oh, my God.

1:13:321:13:33

I just have to pee real bad, so if you don't mind.

1:13:331:13:36

It's so good to see you.

1:13:361:13:37

Oh, Mr Hinds...

1:13:371:13:38

Ahh...

1:13:451:13:48

'The body of Marcus Hooks

1:13:501:13:52

'arrived at Kennedy Airport earlier this morning,

1:13:521:13:53

'and in a processional befitting a king,

1:13:531:13:56

'will make its way to the Apollo Theatre,

1:13:561:13:58

'where it will lie in state...'

1:13:581:13:59

I'm watching it right now.

1:13:591:14:00

'..appropriately enough,

1:14:001:14:01

'in a piano-shaped coffin

1:14:011:14:02

1:14:161:14:19

Fucking A!

1:14:191:14:20

Yeah. No, no. I... I understand. Beep

1:14:221:14:24

Uh, that's my other line.

1:14:241:14:26

-I'll call you back. This is Danny.

-Hello, Mr Epstein?

1:14:261:14:29

'Phillip Newman. I broke your stapler last week.'

1:14:291:14:31

-Are you kidding me?

-'Hello?'

1:14:311:14:33

Where the hell are you?

1:14:331:14:34

Listen, I called because I just wanted to let you know

1:14:341:14:36

that everything's cool, and we're still on target.

1:14:361:14:38

We?

1:14:381:14:39

You're with Henderson and Hinds?

1:14:391:14:41

'Yes, sir.'

1:14:411:14:42

They say "motherfucker" a lot, but they're really good guys.

1:14:421:14:45

All right, well, good.

1:14:451:14:46

You can give them this message.

1:14:461:14:48

The network just called, and they're off the show.

1:14:481:14:49

But they can't do that!

1:14:491:14:51

Oh, really? It's VH1.

1:14:511:14:53

Have you seen Flava Of Love?

1:14:531:14:54

They can pretty much do whatever they want.

1:14:541:14:56

And another thing, you're fired.

1:14:561:14:58

Motherfucker! What the fuck?

1:14:581:15:00

What'd he say?

1:15:091:15:10

Uh, he said I'm fired,

1:15:121:15:15

and...and, uh, and you're off the show.

1:15:151:15:19

Are...are you serious, man?

1:15:251:15:27

I'm so sorry.

1:15:281:15:30

Nnn! Nnn! Nnn!

1:15:461:15:49

HE SOBS

1:15:491:15:51

You know, uh, according to the map,

1:16:121:16:15

that road leads to the turnpike.

1:16:151:16:17

I think we've still got time to make it.

1:16:171:16:20

Make what, Louis?

1:16:201:16:22

You heard what the motherfucker said! It's over!

1:16:221:16:25

Fuck that.

1:16:251:16:27

This shit ain't over till we say it's over, all right?

1:16:311:16:35

Things have changed,

1:16:371:16:38

and I have achieved a state of mental clarity.

1:16:381:16:42

Ain't that a bitch? You hear what this motherfucker said?

1:16:421:16:45

Ever since I knocked on your door, man,

1:16:451:16:47

you've been beating my balls at every fucking turn.

1:16:471:16:50

Now all of a sudden, you've got a state of clarity.

1:16:501:16:53

Where was your clarity in LA, Lou?

1:16:531:16:55

You can't just dial that shit up

1:16:551:16:56

like you calling for a pizza, motherfucker.

1:16:561:16:59

You got to go inside, do the work.

1:16:591:17:01

Consequently, I have a confession.

1:17:011:17:04

Floyd, you were right about me.

1:17:051:17:10

I have given up on a lot of things in my life.

1:17:101:17:13

But I ain't giving up on this. All right?

1:17:131:17:16

Come on, man, we've been through enough shit the last few days.

1:17:161:17:20

We can do this.

1:17:201:17:21

And I dare anybody to try to stop us.

1:17:211:17:24

Let's go, motherfucker.

1:17:241:17:26

Shotgun.

1:17:261:17:27

Get your ass in the backseat.

1:17:281:17:29

# Ain't no stoppin' us now

1:17:291:17:32

# We're on the move

1:17:321:17:34

# There's been so many things that's held us down

1:17:381:17:41

# But now it looks

1:17:411:17:43

# Like things are finally coming around

1:17:431:17:46

# Don't you let nothing, nothing

1:17:591:18:02

# Ain't no stopping us now

1:18:021:18:04

# No, no, no

1:18:041:18:06

# We're on the move

1:18:061:18:07

-MR EPSTEIN:

-Full sound and switch on all the floor monitors, all right?

1:18:131:18:15

Look at that. That's nice and subtle.

1:18:151:18:17

-I'm on it, then. Sound check.

-OK. Thanks.

1:18:171:18:19

-Mr Epstein.

-Yeah?

-Hey, thank God you're here.

1:18:191:18:21

Oh, God, this isn't happening.

1:18:211:18:22

What are you doing here? I thought I fired you.

1:18:221:18:24

I just wanted to tell you I'm not alone.

1:18:241:18:26

You guys are insane!

1:18:321:18:34

Good to see you, too, Little Ep.

1:18:341:18:35

Yeah, this is never going to happen.

1:18:351:18:37

You'll be arrested the moment the cops spot you.

1:18:371:18:40

We don't care anything about that.

1:18:401:18:42

We just want to do our song.

1:18:421:18:44

Oh, one other thing. You got a few minutes?

1:18:441:18:46

Yeah, I got all the time in the world.

1:18:461:18:48

I'm just producing a television show

1:18:481:18:49

with dozens of huge musical acts

1:18:491:18:51

that goes live in 17.5 minutes,

1:18:511:18:53

but you know, let's grab some coffee and have a little chit-chat.

1:18:531:18:55

Wow. How long's he got?

1:19:001:19:02

We don't know.

1:19:041:19:05

All right. I'll see what I can do. OK?

1:19:071:19:10

Thank you.

1:19:101:19:12

-ANNOUNCER:

-Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen,

1:19:151:19:18

please take your seats.

1:19:181:19:20

The ceremony will begin shortly.

1:19:201:19:22

CHATTER

1:19:221:19:25

KNOCK ON DOOR

1:19:251:19:27

I'll get it.

1:19:271:19:28

Wow! The Black Moses.

1:19:321:19:35

-How's it going, man?

-Hey, what's happening?

1:19:361:19:38

-What's up, baby?

-Hey, fellas.

1:19:381:19:40

Hey, what's happening?

1:19:401:19:41

-The man.

-My man.

1:19:411:19:43

OK, all right.

1:19:431:19:44

Heard you were here. Just wanted to wish you luck.

1:19:441:19:46

Oh, by the way,

1:19:471:19:48

brought somebody by to see you.

1:19:481:19:50

-Oh, is that right?

-Yeah.

1:19:501:19:52

OK, everybody, let's move on out of here.

1:19:591:20:01

-Come on.

-All right, you heard what Mr Henderson said.

1:20:011:20:04

-After you, young man.

-OK.

1:20:041:20:07

I'm sorry I ran off the way I did.

1:20:251:20:28

I'm the one who ran out.

1:20:301:20:32

There's no need for you to apologise.

1:20:321:20:34

Can I help you with your tie?

1:20:401:20:41

Yeah, sure.

1:20:411:20:43

You know what you're doing?

1:20:431:20:45

Yeah, I know what I'm doing.

1:20:451:20:47

Here you go.

1:20:481:20:50

Mm! Ohh!

1:20:521:20:54

You all right?

1:20:541:20:56

Yeah. Just some water, please. Damn!

1:20:561:20:59

All cameras are on point. We just added two mics.

1:20:591:21:01

Mr Epstein! You better come quick.

1:21:011:21:03

Come on, I'm serious. Come on! It's important!

1:21:031:21:05

-All right. Take care of those.

-15 minutes, Danny.

1:21:051:21:07

HE GROANS

1:21:081:21:10

He just collapsed. I think he's in a lot of pain.

1:21:101:21:12

Open your hand. Open your hand.

1:21:121:21:14

-Right there, right there.

-OK, OK.

1:21:141:21:17

Be strong, brother. Hang on in there.

1:21:181:21:21

It ain't time for you to check out now.

1:21:211:21:23

Check out? What?

1:21:231:21:24

Come on, man. Everybody knows, man.

1:21:241:21:26

My aunt was taking the same doggone pills, man.

1:21:261:21:28

Took her about a week before she wasted away to nothing,

1:21:281:21:31

just kicking and screaming.

1:21:311:21:32

I don't know what killed her ass,

1:21:321:21:34

but if she was taking those, she had a bladder infection.

1:21:341:21:37

Say what?

1:21:371:21:38

Look, Doctor Dumbshit, I got a kidney stone.

1:21:381:21:41

Hurts like a motherfucker when I pee,

1:21:411:21:43

but it ain't going to kill me.

1:21:431:21:44

So you're not dying?

1:21:441:21:45

From the first slap and cry, we all start to die.

1:21:451:21:48

But I ain't on no accelerated programme, hell, no.

1:21:481:21:51

Ain't that about a bitch?

1:21:511:21:53

All that damn hard work, busting your ass out of jail,

1:21:531:21:56

and you ain't even dying.

1:21:561:21:57

I was kinda looking forward to seeing you go.

1:21:571:21:59

Excuse me, Danny. They're on in two.

1:21:591:22:01

All right. Where we at, guys?

1:22:011:22:02

OK, I'm good.

1:22:031:22:05

The Apollo, the Mecca.

1:22:081:22:10

This brings back memories, man.

1:22:101:22:12

How many times you think we've performed here?

1:22:121:22:13

Ooh, uh...ooh, five-O.

1:22:131:22:16

-50, really?

-Five-O.

-Oh!

-Come on. Move, move.

1:22:161:22:20

That's them! Hold it! Hold it!

1:22:201:22:21

-POLICE RADIO:

-'All units report, all units report.

1:22:211:22:24

'Suspects have been spotted.

1:22:241:22:25

'All units, apprehend them quietly and by the book.'

1:22:251:22:28

Hey, Lou, do you think they're gone, man?

1:22:291:22:31

I don't have X-ray vision, motherfucker!

1:22:311:22:33

How would I know?

1:22:331:22:34

Lower your voice, Lou. Doggone it, man.

1:22:341:22:36

It's so dark in here you can't see shit.

1:22:361:22:38

Hold up.

1:22:381:22:39

Let me see if I can reach my lighter.

1:22:391:22:40

Don't light no lighter up in here, man.

1:22:401:22:42

We'll blow up like a barbecue.

1:22:421:22:43

Hold on one minute.

1:22:431:22:45

Shit.

1:22:451:22:46

Marcus motherfucking Hooks.

1:22:491:22:53

Long way from Linwood Street, huh, motherfucker?

1:22:531:22:55

Fuck Linwood Street and him.

1:22:551:22:57

He used both of us, and you know it.

1:22:571:22:59

Come on, man. He just thought he'd be a bigger star going solo.

1:22:591:23:02

-He was right.

-No, he wasn't.

1:23:021:23:04

He didn't want to split the money three ways.

1:23:041:23:06

Just look at him, sitting there

1:23:061:23:07

with that old shit-eating grin on his face.

1:23:071:23:09

You think you're all that, motherfucker, don't you?

1:23:091:23:12

I have to admit, every time I think about you,

1:23:121:23:13

I could just choke the shit out of you!

1:23:131:23:16

Stop it, stop it! Floyd, he ain't thinking shit. He's dead.

1:23:161:23:19

Say, ain't that my watch?

1:23:211:23:24

See? You thought I stole that mother...

1:23:241:23:26

I told you this motherfucker was a klepto!

1:23:261:23:28

Shit, look at that.

1:23:281:23:29

That's nice.

1:23:291:23:31

Probably stole that, too.

1:23:311:23:32

Motherfucker always had good taste, though.

1:23:321:23:34

I'm going to keep this.

1:23:341:23:36

Hey, Louis.

1:23:401:23:42

You think if, you know...

1:23:421:23:44

if he wouldn't have, you know, died,

1:23:441:23:46

you think we would have got back together?

1:23:461:23:47

Oh, hell, no.

1:23:471:23:49

But you know what?

1:23:491:23:51

We are together,

1:23:511:23:52

and I've been thinking about our little arrangement.

1:23:521:23:54

I'm going to go ahead

1:23:541:23:55

and break you off 50/50, all right?

1:23:551:23:58

Wow, Lou, that's...

1:23:581:23:59

that's real black of you, man.

1:23:591:24:02

Because there ain't no money.

1:24:021:24:04

-Say what?

-Well, you said it yourself.

1:24:041:24:07

It's a funeral. Nobody pays you to sing, man.

1:24:071:24:09

You lied about the money?

1:24:091:24:10

-Yeah.

-You motherfucker.

1:24:101:24:12

Hey, you can't say it wasn't worth it.

1:24:121:24:14

Well, I could say it.

1:24:141:24:16

But I'd be lying.

1:24:181:24:20

I love you, Lou.

1:24:201:24:21

My nigger.

1:24:211:24:23

But this motherfucker, you know, I can't help it.

1:24:231:24:25

Every time, I could just kill this motherfucker!

1:24:251:24:27

That's why he left, because you was always picking on him.

1:24:271:24:29

Stop fucking with him.

1:24:291:24:30

He fucked with my happiness.

1:24:301:24:33

APPLAUSE

1:24:331:24:35

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

1:24:451:24:47

Where the fuck are they, Danny?

1:24:471:24:49

My good friends, please join me

It's Louis and Floyd! It's the Real Deal!

Oh!

Marcus Hooks And The Real Deal,

1:25:061:25:09

1:25:091:25:11

Give them a hand. Give them a hand.

1:25:111:25:14

Reunited, y'all.

1:25:141:25:17

They got their shit together.

1:25:171:25:18

Yes! Let's go!

1:25:181:25:21

Stand by. Move in on my command.

1:25:211:25:23

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

1:25:231:25:24

Come on, Officer... detective person.

1:25:241:25:26

Please, just, you know, come on.

1:25:261:25:27

Let them sing one song. One little song.

1:25:271:25:29

It's not going to hurt anybody.

1:25:291:25:31

The Real Deal!

1:25:311:25:32

All right. One song.

1:25:341:25:37

But it better be good.

1:25:371:25:39

One song. The good one.

1:25:401:25:43

How's that hip?

1:25:471:25:49

Locked and loaded, baby.

1:25:491:25:50

Let's do this.

1:25:501:25:51

Band!

1:25:521:25:54

Let's take a walk in the park.

One, two, three, four!

# Oh, yeah

1:26:091:26:11

# When the rhythm gets to rollin'

1:26:111:26:14

# And then you add a spoonful of soul in

1:26:141:26:17

# And then I tried to let it all go then

1:26:171:26:21

# Oh, yeah

1:26:211:26:22

# Oh, it's easy to me

1:26:221:26:24

# You see, the way I ride the rhythm

1:26:241:26:28

# You see, the truth is all I can give 'em

1:26:281:26:31

# And the lyrics can come from livin'

1:26:311:26:34

# Oh, yeah, oh, it's easy to me

# It's just a walk in the park

# Oh, yeah

1:28:551:28:57

# Music comes out of my heart... #

1:28:591:29:02

One song.

1:29:021:29:03

# Something like a walk in the park

1:29:031:29:05

# A walk in the park

1:29:051:29:06

# It's just a walk in the park

1:29:061:29:08

# A walk in the park

1:29:081:29:10

# Oh, yeah

1:29:101:29:12

# Music comes out of my heart... #

1:29:121:29:14

I'm their manager!

1:29:141:29:16

# Something like a walk in the park

1:29:161:29:18

# Walk in the park

1:29:181:29:20

# It's just a walk in the park

1:29:201:29:21

# Just like a walk in the park... #

1:29:211:29:24

# Oh, yeah. #

1:29:291:29:32

Whoo!

1:29:461:29:47

# Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo

1:30:181:30:20

# Haah. #

1:30:201:30:21

You're going to sing real nice tonight.

1:30:211:30:23

# All right, y'all. Got that funky time

1:30:251:30:29

# I can feel it I can feel it

1:30:291:30:35

# I can feel it... #

1:30:351:30:37

Any time the camera or the mic comes on,

1:30:391:30:41

I don't cheat myself.

1:30:411:30:42

That was rule number one I was taught as a kid.

1:30:421:30:45

And I definitely can't cheat the audience.

1:30:451:30:47

So I give 150%

1:30:471:30:48

every single time that I do anything.

1:30:481:30:51

Even the way I live my life.

1:30:511:30:53

I just cherish each doggone moment.

1:30:531:30:56

A black preacher's something else, ain't it?

1:30:561:30:58

You can't pay your rent after you come from church.

1:30:581:31:01

And if you ask the preacher for the 5,

1:31:031:31:05

he'll be like, "Fuck you in the name of Jesus."

1:31:051:31:08

My comedy is not fictitious.

1:31:081:31:11

My comedy has to come from my heart.

1:31:111:31:14

CLAPPING IN RHYTHM

1:31:141:31:17

I've been performing all my life.

1:31:441:31:46

So being in front of an audience

1:31:461:31:47

has never been a problem for me.

1:31:471:31:49

It's time to go?

1:31:491:31:51

Well, go on, then.

1:31:511:31:53

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

1:31:531:31:56

You want to leave a lasting impression on your audience.

1:31:561:31:58

You know, and that's something I was taught, too,

1:31:581:32:01

when I first started.

1:32:011:32:02

Always make them remember you,

1:32:021:32:03

or remember something about you and the film.

1:32:031:32:06

I'm going back to my 600-a-night hotel room,

1:32:061:32:10

have me a nice-ass, uh, piece of pussy and shit.

1:32:101:32:14

OK?

1:32:141:32:16

Cut it.

1:32:161:32:18

HE SCREAMS

1:32:181:32:19

OK, just breathe. Breathe.

1:32:191:32:20

I'm not even in yet.

1:32:201:32:22

# I got to boogie for you

1:32:221:32:24

# I got to boogie for you

1:32:241:32:26

# I got nothin' but boogie

1:32:261:32:29

# Nothin' but boogie for you

1:32:291:32:31

# I got nothin' but boogie

1:32:311:32:33

-# Nothin' but boogie for you

-Say what?

1:32:331:32:34

# Boogie, boogie

1:32:341:32:36

# Boogie, boogie Boogie, boogie

1:32:361:32:38

# Boogie, boogie Boogie, boogie, boogie, boogie... #

1:32:381:32:42

CHEERING

1:32:421:32:45

I want to say thanks to you all

1:32:451:32:47

because you all made me. Yeah.

1:32:471:32:51

I wouldn't have no TV show or movies.

1:32:551:32:58

You all was coming to see me,

1:32:581:33:00

and you all made me...

1:33:001:33:01

Chattanooga, Louisiana, Mississippi.

1:33:011:33:04

CHEERING

1:33:041:33:05

So thank you.

1:33:051:33:07

'I think if I had a few free passes

1:33:071:33:10

'like a lot of people,

1:33:101:33:11

'I don't think I would be as successful as I am.'

1:33:111:33:14

My task here on Earth

1:33:141:33:15

is I have to work harder than the average bear.

1:33:151:33:18

-It look easy, don't it?

-But it's not.

1:33:181:33:22

Thank you, sweetheart. Thank you.

1:33:221:33:24

# I never can say goodbye

1:33:281:33:33

# No, no, no, I

1:33:331:33:35

# I never can say goodbye

1:33:351:33:39

# No, no, no,

1:33:391:33:41

# Even though the pain and heartaches

1:33:411:33:44

# Seem to follow me wherever I go

1:33:441:33:47

# Though I try and try to hide my feelings

1:33:471:33:51

# They always seem to show

1:33:511:33:54

# Then you try to say you're leaving me

1:33:541:33:57

# And I always have to say no

1:33:571:34:01

# Tell me why

1:34:011:34:03

# Is it so?

1:34:031:34:06

# I never can say goodbye

1:34:061:34:12

# No, no, no, no

1:34:121:34:14

# I never can say goodbye

1:34:141:34:20

# I keep thinkin' that our problems

1:34:201:34:23

# Soon are going to all work out

1:34:231:34:27

# But there's that same unhappy feeling

1:34:271:34:30

# That makes that anguish twist that doubt

1:34:301:34:33

# It's that same old dizzy hang-up

1:34:331:34:36

# Can't live with you or without

1:34:361:34:40

# Tell me why

1:34:401:34:43

# Is it so?

1:34:431:34:45

# I don't want to let you go

1:34:451:34:48

# I never can say goodbye

1:34:481:34:53

# I, I'll never

1:34:531:34:55

# Say goodbye

1:34:551:34:57

# I won't say goodbye

1:34:571:34:59

# I won't try

1:34:591:35:01

# I won't let you go

1:35:011:35:03

# Won't say goodbye

1:35:031:35:05

# I can't say goodbye

1:35:051:35:07

# No

1:35:071:35:08
