- What shape is a pizza?

- A big bowl like this!

What's that called?

- Mommy.

- Excuse me.

Sorry.

Glad you made it.

You see who it is up there?

It's Hannah.

Mommy, look!

Isaiah, shh.

Hannah! Hannah!

Boo!

No!

No! No!

Just stop it.

Yeah!

Why did you even bring him?

It was my play.

You knew he would do

something like this.

He always does.

Yes, and you know

he cannot help it.

Hey!

Hannah, he's...

he ju... Oh...

You know he adores you.

Just try not to be so angry.

I'm not angry!

Yes, you are,

and it's okay.

Oh, please.

He was so proud of you...

jumping up and down,

calling out your name.

Yeah, I know.

I heard him.

And so did everybody else.

I just wanted Mom to see it.

Hannah?

What?

Can I tell you something?

Yeah, whatever, Mom.

When I heard you sing tonight...

I thought, "There's Hannah,

doing something

I can't begin to do."

Right.

It gave me such pleasure.

Good morning!

Good morning.

What you doing?

Jumping.

Boy, your mama ain't teach you

to knock

before you just come

barging in somebody's room?

- Hey.

Excuse me.

You ever had a room

to yourself before?

Then stop complaining.

Let's get to work.

Some ain't good enough.

Well, the book is dumb.

How you know

'Cause I am reading it.

Good.

George...

and Katherine?

Kath-er-ine done gone

and got herself knocked up.

Don't say.

Why you doing this, Khaila?

Oh, we're gonna share now?
