late Monday afternoon
'cause usually I'm out
running with my grandchildren.
Now, what'd you say your name was?
Rebecca, Rebecca Skloot. You can call me...
Mail!
Deborah?
Deborah? Okay.
Hello?
Deborah, hi. It's Rebecca.
Can't talk.
Oh, well, shall I call back in, say...
Done talking.
write a book myself.
But I ain't no writer.
Can't talk to you.
Why can't you talk to me?
Did somebody... Deborah?
Talk to the men.
Sonny, Lawrence.
Deborah, if you'd just give me a chance,
I can...
We could spend some time together and...
I don't want to get hurt again.
So, I'm here in Baltimore in a parking lot,
waiting for Sonny Lacks to show up
and hopefully take me to introduce me
to the rest of the family.
And I'm really hoping that Deborah might...
Might be there, but...
Oh. That's...
Oh, my God, he's actually here.
Yeah, I told you that I'll be passing.
Hi.
I will be over there. All right, okay, bye.
- Miss Rebecca!
- Hey.
- Happy New Year.
- Happy New Year.
Uh, you're a very hard man to track down.
I'm a busy man, Miss Rebecca.
- I'm a very busy man.
- That's good.
- No, it's not.
- No?
Here, come on.
Oh. Oh, okay, well, let me just get my stuff.
Is Deborah gonna be there today?
No. Lawrence will check you out.
He'll decide what's what.
- Okay.
- I told you I'm in a meeting.
I'm in my car.
You can have a meeting in the car.
It's a mobile office.
Do you mind if I turn this on,
- so I could...
- No, no.
Go ahead, go ahead.
Trying to find something on the radio.
Your cell phone always ring that much?
Ripping and running, Miss Rebecca.
Ripping and running.
So, what's the earliest memory
you have of your mother?
Well, I hear she was pretty.
Lawrence the only one
old enough to really remember.
Me, Dale, Zakariyya,
we got no memories at all.
Lawrence was a teenager?
Mmm-hmm. He was around 15.
Zakar-ree-ah?
Changed his name in prison.
Good thing he ain't here
to hear you mispronouncing it.
I'm just messing with you.
So, here's where we take
scientists and reporters
who wanna know about our mother
so the whole family can gang up on them.
Now, you seem nice enough,
so I won't go get Zakariyya.
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
- Which house exactly does Lawrence live in?
- Good luck.
Hello?
Hello?
Hello? Anybody...
Come on in.
I'm Rebecca. Rebecca Skloot.
Wanna taste the meat I cook?
Now, my wife thinks I cook them too long.
How could I resist?
Uh, Lawrence, do you mind if I...
Sonny was telling me you're the only sibling
who has any memory of your mother...
I blacked out most of my memory
because of the sadness and hurting.
I found this cool thing. Um...
