- Y'all sell pears?

Y'all got produce up there?

- Clothing. Women's clothing.

- Say, "Clothing." Don't say, "A pears."

I don't know what

"apparels" is. "A pears."

Okay. Young adults

is on the third floor.

- Young adults on the third floor.

- Makeup and perfume is here.

And over there across the hall.

- I get it. I'll be fine.

- All right, and listen.

Most important,

everybody gets the same greeting.

When they come in,

you look them in the face...

you smile pretty and you say,

"Merry Christmas.

It's a beautiful day at Tifton's.

Joy to you and yours.

Yes, may I help you?"

That what I say?

Fine. I will say that.

- You wanna go over it once?

- All right.

- Here's a customer. Okay.

- Can you help me?

- Yes. Merry...

- Yes.

Mary had a little...

- No, Merry Christmas.

- Merry Christmas.

- It's a beautiful day at Tip...

- Tifton's.

- Tap... Tip... Tiptoes.

- Joy to you.

Joy to the world and the Lord

is come, and happy Easter.

What can... What can I

do for you at Tifton's?

Thank you. I'm looking

for women's lingerie.

Honey? Who the lingerie for?

For me, of course.

I don't know about you

wearing the lingeries.

Those days are over, honey.

Somebody should've told you it's passed.

The lingeries is for young

people with tight, firm stuff.

What I would suggest you do, hunty...

I would suggest you walk

across the street to Target...

and ask them for some of those

really nice big, big-girl drawers...

so that you will be comfortable.

You don't wanna walk around

with a slingshot up your butt.

- Eileen!

- Come, come, come.

Come. Let me help you.

- You are so rude!

- She's something.

No, you are the one that's rude

anytime you bring lingerie to a man.

Who was the 37th president

of the United States?

I know.

Bailey, do you know?

I know the answer.

I didn't ask you. I asked Bailey.

He don't know. He's always dirty.

And he's just a farm boy.

Yes, but he's the only one to get

an A on all three of his last tests.

What did you get, Lucy?

Or you, Larry?

There will be no

bullying in this class.

I'll see you all tomorrow.

Do your homework.

Look over the list of songs

for the Christmas Jubilee.

Christmas is five days away.

Hold on a second, Bailey.

You gotta start speaking up

and participating in class.

I know you knew the answer.

You're are so smart and talented.

You get an A on every test.

You gotta believe in yourself.

Lucy's right.

I'm just an old farm boy.

There is no such thing

as "just a farm boy."

You are smart. You can

be anything you want.

I can only imagine if you could

just stay awake in class.

- Are you up late at night?

- No, ma'am.

I want you to sing the lead
