Nina Page #4

---

one off my record player.

It's got the song "four women".

Mom.

Mom, stop.

Honey.

This has got the song on

it that kept us marching.

"Mississippi".

Made me believe that

we had a chance.

Until we didn't.

America

is shocked and saddened

by the brutal slaying tonight

of doctor Martin Luther King.

I ask every citizen

to reject the blind violence

that has struck doctor king

who lived by nonviolence.

Those motherfuckers.

Nina, what are you doing?

- I'mma kill them all.

- What are you doing?

What do you think I'm doing?

- The f*** you think I'm doing?!

- Nina, stop!

Stop, Nina!

Do what you do.

You do what you do.

You wanna have

dinner with me tonight?

- That sounds so nice.

- Mom.

Thank you.

Yeah, it

would be our pleasure,

and I know just the place.

I'm gonna sing a song for you.

All right, all right.

Clifton, go tell

them I want to sing.

Well, you're my manager.

I wanted to wait

until the entire family

was here to tell you.

Clifton is now my manager.

Sh*t, boy.

That's good, congratulations.

Why do you think

I came all this way?

You're now my manager.

Let's see if they recognize me.

Check that out, man.

Ladies and gentlemen,

it looks like we have

a legend in the house.

Nina Simone is here, and I think

she wants to do

something with us.

Nina Simone!

Nina Simone, people!

That gave me the chills!

That was really

something, miss Simone.

I love that song!

That was

really something, huh?

What you think?

Well, you played beautiful.

Is that what you think?

That you put a spell on me?

That's not enough.

He's already talking

like a manager.

A toast.

To Clifton Henderson,

the manager.

- To Clifton.

- To my son.

I'm happy he's got a job.

What's going on, Clifton?

What do you mean?

I mean what's going on?

Nothing's going on.

Nina Simone followed you

all the way here

from France, so come on baby,

you gonna tell me there

ain't nothing going on?

That's what I'm

telling you, nothing.

Well, from what

I see, she needs you.

Baby, no, no, no, please, I have

a headache all over my head.

Bring me some Nutella

and a spoon please.

What are you looking for?

Don't sneak up on me like that!

Where are my earrings?!

I have them.

You're lying!

You gave them to me

when we went through

the metal detector, remember?

Oh.

What am I supposed to manage?

What are you talking about?

Why am I back here, Nina?

I won't make it.

Yes you will.

You don't understand.

Then tell me.

It's so damn bright

in here, Clifton.

What is it with you and this

damn light all the time?!

I put the sheets up,

you take them down!

I don't like so much sunlight!

Nina.

I can make this happen,

but I need your help.
