- Yes, I'm here.

OK, it's paid?

Thank you.

Can I have a

confirmation number?

B301612.

Thank you so much.

OK, you too.

(heavy sighing)

How am I gonna pay

all these bills?

God, God please make a way.

I've been trying to

do the right thing.

Please make a way for us.

(upbeat, cheerful music)

- Good morning.

- Good morning, sir.

Hotcake special.

- Come on now, Shartruce.

I've been coming here every

day since Carter was president.

How come I can't get

my four hotcakes?

- Why do we have to go through

this every single morning?

Now, we have been

through this before

and I gave you ample notice.

It was written on

the blackboard.

Now, as of the

15th of last month,

hot cake special only

comes with three hotcakes,

don't no more come with four.

It's the rules, baby.

- That ain't fair.

Y'all should have

never changed that.

It ain't right.

- Look honey, change

is apart of life.

Now we just live with it,

accept it and move on.

- Oh, I gonna move on.

Move on to IHOP if y'all don't

move on with this foolishness.

- You know what, Mr. Weathers,

I wouldn't blame you if you did.

See, I wouldn't eat none of the

crap come up out of this dump.

Now, catch that

tea with hotcakes.

(mischievous music)

- Don't spend it

all in one place

- Fo, fo, four, four,

four dollars Mr. Weathers?

I save your life and you leave

me a measly four dollars?

You cheap son of a--

- Girl, You can't be

cussing at the customers.

You know you--

- Girl please,

that's Mr. Weathers.

You know darn well

he'll be back here

bright and early, six

am, begging me for

an extra hot cake.

- That's true.

- He loves my smile.

- Girl, bye.

- Besides, don't nobody care

if I get fired from this dump.

- I do, I need my--

- Attention!

Unless I'm mistaken, did I

hear one of you daffodils

refer to my

establishment as a dump?

- No sir, we said that the

dumpling is the best, sir.

- I don't know, they're a

little dry for my taste, now.

- Shartruce!

- Report to my office

immediately, on the double!

The rest of you, as you were.

- Mmhm.

- If you get fired,

can I get your locker?

- Girl please, that old

man ain't firing me.

This place would fall

apart without Shartruce.

(upbeat music)

- Hey Jackie.

You just missed Mr. Brady.

You late again.

- I know, I know.

I was waiting up all night

for Patrick to get home.

He never came home,

he was working late.

- What?

You must be off your

rocker, are you OK?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm just not gonna

worry about it.

- What you mean you're not

going to worry about it?

You have to worry about it.

You can't keep playing

stupid forever Jackie.

That man don't mean you no good.

He was working late.

- Let me tell you

something miss thing,

you need to mind

your own business.

I'm not jumping to any

conclusions because I trust him.

- OK.

Well, my grandmamma used to say,

"If it looks, smell and taste

"like a rat, it's

probably a rat."

- What the hell kinda stuff

y'all got going on in Louisiana?

You eat rat?

Goodness.

- Oh girl, you ain't

never ate nothing

if you ain't had no fried nutria

with some of my grandfather's

homemade mole shine, girl.

Mmm.

- You know what, you

need to get away from me.

Because you're just country

and ain't nothin nobody

could do with you.

- For serious, really Jackie.

You know, I grew up in

a home with a father

who was never there because
