I got your table tray

at your house, Daryl.

Oh, Cephus, that was you?

That was Cephus,

I'm sorry, Daryl. I'm sorry.

Here you are, sweetheart. There you go.

You want a little more crab?

I'm good.

Oh, thanks. Thanks.

- None of that.

- All right, you all.

All right, everybody.

Oh, Heavenly Father,

we thank you for having

our family together tonight.

We are blessed that Grandma Bonnie

made her famous gumbo.

In your name, let's feast. Amen.

Amen.

- Happy birthday, Mama.

- Best birthday present.

Thanks for your help tonight.

Come on, Mama.

You ain't got to thank me.

I shouldn't even be letting you do this.

Oh, please. It's relaxing.

Yeah, if you say so.

I say so.

You guys got plans for the night?

Yeah, nothing major though.

Meet up with the fellas,

head out to the city.

You guys going out, out? Or...

I think we're just gonna be low-key.

Catch the fireworks, probably

roll around a little bit after that.

Roll around?

It's gonna be cool, though.

Chill. Plus, Phina's gotta get up

and go to work in the morning anyway.

You guys gonna be drinking?

Mama, they gonna be drinking.

I haven't had a drink since...

- I can't even remember.

- Mm.

Why don't you take the train out there.

That way you guys can drink and hang out

and not have to worry about anything.

Nah, I feel like getting

over there and getting back.

- Not waiting on no train.

- No traffic, either.

You know? You know it's gonna be crazy,

going and coming back.

Yeah, we might take it.

Don't make me follow

you guys to make sure.

Remember prom?

Trying to forget.

We gotta go. We're gonna go, OK?

Honey, thank you.

You good?

- Let me get my stuff.

- Did you say goodbye?

Come here.

- We're outta here.

- I love you.

- All right, now.

- Don't get up, don't get up.

All right, so you going out.

All right, have fun.

Happy New Year.
