Filthy Rich (2020) s01e03 Episode Script

Psalm 25:3

1
Dear lord,
we could really use
your divine intervention,
again.
Margaret's little
press conference
backfired like
a raggedy old car,
so sunnyclub vendors
threatened to pull out.
Margaret called a family
meeting to keep all the kids,
bastards included,
on brand,
which apparently means bribing
everyone into subservience.
She just put you
on staff, bro.
Becky: Antonio took the deal,
of course.
Nice suit.
Becky: He must really need
the money.
Rose went to fetch jason
from whatever drug den
he was hiding in.
He better be careful
with that stuff,
or he'll wind up in a coma.
-Jason: Don't worry.
-Whoa, what--(screams)
you're not gonna wake him up.
Becky: And ginger,
greedy tramp that she is,
refused margaret's offer
'cause I'm that bitch.
Becky: And moved
all of her cyber bimbos
into a ratty-ass motel.
So of course margaret went
to the only person
who could fix this,
my darling brother,
who offered to baptize ginger
in exchange
for putting eric
in charge of the missions.
It's a big job,
which explains why
he's on his laptop all the
time.
But ginger turned
what was supposed
to be a holy sacrament
into a wet, dripping billboard
for her porn site.
I saw her areolas.
Cut the feed!
Becky: I can't imagine
what eugene would say
if he saw all this.
Still, the controversy got us
the subscriptions we needed.
Margaret got super jelly
of my brother's ratings
and decided to book ginger
on her show.
Be good for everyone.
Becky: And that'll be
a travesty in the making.
Just watch.
Lilith, salome, jezebel.
Scripture tells us
of the fallen women
who danced with the serpent
in the shadow of sin,
and yet the hand of god
was always there reaching out,
calling, "come to me,
my daughter.
Repent."
last week, we met
another fallen woman,
ms. Ginger sweet,
and just as god offered
salvation to the ancients,
he reached out to ms. Sweet
through me, his humble vessel,
and together
we offered her salvation,
but she made a mockery
of the sacrament!
Singers:
fighter ♪
norah:
Five minutes, margaret.
Franklin:
Bringing ginger on the show
is gonna hurt the brand.
People are really
riled up out there.
Wings of a dove
isn't about controversy.
We can fight controversy,
franklin, or we can embrace it.
Jesus teaches us that we must
choose the embrace.
Franklin: Jesus?
So this has nothing to do
with boosting
sunnyclub's subscriptions?
Ginger's little stunt put some
serious numbers on our board.
Your brand
is hospitality, grace.
I don't want you
to take the show
to a place
you can't pull it back from.
The reverend did it.
Well, the reverend is tacky.
Now, you have been under
a lot of pressure lately.
If you can't have grace
under pressure,
what good is it?
I can handle ginger sweet.
After all, I have my army.

children!
Singers:
fighter ♪
I am a fighter
and I ♪
you filthy, diseased whore!
You kiss your mother
with that mouth?
Coming through!
I'm betty, your pa for the day.
Don't judge all of us
by that guy, okay?
Margaret's fans are like
a big, old family,
and every family has their
crazy pants sheep, am I right?
Okay?
All right, come on,
let's get her in.
Thomas: There's another way
to reach ms. Sweet,
through a mother who follows
in the biblical path
set by rebecca, naomi,
and our blessed mary,
someone who will fight
for what is right,
someone like margaret monreaux!
Margaret:
Welcome home, jason.
Did you close
that ganja factory of yours?
-Yes, ma'am.
-Good.
You'll join rose
for the mail bag.
-Jason: What's the mail bag?
-Rose: Mom selects
a handful of viewer letters
to read on air.
I've been doing it
since I was seven.
Jason: I know you wanted
all of your kids
on your tv show today,
but I--that's not
really my jam.
Who doesn't want to be
on camera?
Uh, me.
I don't want to be.
Jason, today we are
reintroducing our family
to the world,
properly and on our terms.
Antonio, I just love
the cooking segment
that you pitched me.
Thanks, margaret.
Antonio and I--
we're gonna blend our cultures.
He's gonna make pasteles,
and I'm gonna add
some nola flair.
We're gonna show ginger
and our fans
that blending our differences
can be delicious.
You two, you take note.
This is what a team player
looks like.
Why doesn't eric
have to do it?
Honey, eric is stepping in
for your father today
at the missions.
You're trusting eric
with daddy's projects?
-Mm-hmm.
-That must mean a lot to him.
Rose, will you do the mail bag
in memory of your daddy?
Okay, mama.
Okay.
Thomas:
Jesus makes us strong!
Just please leave
jason out of it.
I promise.
I promise.
Oh, she's here.
Thomas: Let's help margaret
win this fight!
Thomas: It's a tale as old
as time itself,
a fallen woman faced
with two choices,
salvation or damnation,
with a mother desperate
to convince her
to choose correctly.
-Margaret.
-Ginger.
Thomas: Up next
on wings of a dove
Norah: Going live
in three, two
Live from sunshine studios
in beautiful new orleans,
this is wings of a dove!
(upbeat music)
god, give me strength.
Norah: Here she is, your host,
your friend,
margaret monreaux.
Dear lord, I'm just a soul
whose intentions are good,
but I'm alone out here,
traveling down
a lonesome road.
I fear that
I've been cast out.
This is a test
of my perseverance.

margaret:
I've been reflecting lately
on the meaning of homecoming.
You know that feeling
when you go away for a while
and you come back
and find a deeper appreciation
for what you have?
Welcome to the dewdrop buybox,
double-d, double-b.
I'll be there soon.
After taxes, eight hours
of minimum wage
will get you half a bus ticket.
Margaret: As you all know,
the good lord--
he recently expanded
my family circle.
Let me introduce them.
This is my antonio.
Oh, looking after his son,
single father,
despite never knowing his own.
And now sweet jason.
Oh, that's not jason.
That's colorado.
Don't we have
a picture of jason?
She's pissed I backed out.
She takes her show
really seriously.
It's like her church.
He was gonna read
the viewer mail with rose,
but he got a little case
of stage fright.
Happens to us all.
Not me.
If I go on tv,
folks back home might see
and know it's me, you know?
Yeah, I--I know.
(laughs)
margaret: Shame is
just the good lord's way
of reminding us that someone
is always watching--always.
After all
(continues indistinctly)
this is not cool.
That's, like, way not cool.
Margaret:
Or two, or three.
Which brings me
to ginger sweet.
(cheers and applause)
a woman you've already seen
a little too much of.
(crowd booing)
they're booing her.
I know, I know, I know,
but it goes without saying,
ginger, she needs saving.
-(cheering)
-but here at wings of a dove,
we're about hospitality,
and ginger, she's our guest.
Hey, ginger.
Have you got any advice
for me?
Oh, just to be careful.
Mama has this way of turning
everything to her advantage.
Plus, she has the audience
on her side.
I have an audience too,
and it's growing every day
thanks to the sunshine network.
Every time she and the rev
say my name,
my profits go up tenfold.
It's easy to talk big
when you're in the wings,
but wait until
you're out there.
The first time
I was on the show,
I was maybe, like, five,
and I reached for a cookie
before she cued me,
and she slapped my hand
so hard, it stung for a week.
-Margaret's a bully.
-The show has just begun.
It's about time
someone slapped her back.
Welcome back, everyone!
As you all know,
in just under
four short months,
we're launching sunnyclub,
our online shopping division,
and if you become
a subscriber today,
you will get your free bottle
of my signature scent,
proverbs 31.
Friends, look under your seats.
It's made right here
in louisiana.
You get a proverb.
You all get a proverb.
It's the smell of god's
perfect christian woman.
Who are the mafioso?
Mafioso?
Oh, those are my uncles.
Uh, by uncles I mean
those are my dad's old friends,
so they're not family,
but, you know, they're family.
That guy's don bouchard.
Rose: Mm-hmm.
Mom will never believe this.
Gentlemen, governor.
Franklin.
To what do we owe
the pleasure?
I thought our shareholders
might enjoy the big show.
Well, nice of you to make
the special effort
when you could
just watch us on tv.
Well, as much as our friends
are impressed
by the rise in subscriptions
thanks to ginger's appearance
on my show,
they are concerned
by the change in leadership.
They've come
to offer their help.
In what way?
They're prepared to assume
a significant stake
in sunnyclub.
Silent partners, of course.
We are fully funded,
though we certainly
appreciate you.
Mr. Bouchard, antonio rivera.
You made the mma world
what it is,
and without you,
I wouldn't be who I am.
I'd love to show you
what I can do someday.
Yopi candelaria's boy.
Mm.
You--you knew my mom?
Everyone knew yopi.
(group chuckles)
reverend, maybe you could take
these fine gentlemen
to their seat.
Certainly.
(uneasy music)

yo, that guy is everything
in the mma world.
Those men are everything
everywhere.
Be wise, kid.
Steer clear.
And we're back in three, two
Margaret:
God's great creation.
(cheers and applause)
my friends, in just a minute,
we'll go live
with eric at the bayou housing,
but first let's hear it
for the royal boys choir.
(cheers and applause)
boys: just a young boy ♪
living in the city
with his mama ♪
why are our investors here?
It seems your naming yourself
ceo has rattled them.
Our silent partners
aren't staying silent.
My guess is, the reverend
brought them here to show
that you're not up to the job.
Or someone else is.
Boys: told him they will take
real good care of him ♪
told him that ♪
-you healed all these people?
-Thomas: I didn't.
God did.
How did you get backstage?
I'm a friend of franklin lee.
So the pilot
of eugene monreaux's
private plane's on here.
Ten years ago, we laid
our hands on him,
and lord took his cancer away.
You know, I saw you
usher in governor love
and a bunch of fat cats.
What's your relation to them?
I'm their spiritual advisor.
Men that powerful take advice?
You'd be surprised.
The higher they climb,
the more they want to
be humbled.
Off the record, of course.
Eugene monreaux was keeping
a lot of secrets.
If those secrets came out
before the launch
of sunnyclub,
his investors would be nervous.
His secrets still came out.
Eric: Testing, testing,
one, two, three,
one, two, three,
one, two--good?
My dad brought me here
when I was little.
It was nothing
but barren land and hope.
My dad brought god
to the bayou.
It's amazing.
Look what he built.
Yeah, he was
a very great man, eric,
but couldn't we have done
this segment in the studio,
where it's air conditioned?
You okay?
You look tired.
Margaret gave the prime spot
to that sacrilegious slut
ginger.
-Come on.
-She's doing a segment
about family,
and I'm the only one
in the family way.
Producer: All right, guys,
we're cutting back to you
You good?
And now, let's see
your mission money at work.
Take it away, eric!
-Hey, mama.
-Hi, sweetie.
-Becky and I are out here--
-on a very warm,
very sunny new orleans
afternoon.
-Mm-hmm.
-Eric: Yeah, it's a--
it's a scorcher, mama,
but there's no place
that we'd rather be,
because we are breaking ground
on a brand-new
community center.
You know, it's very humbling,
'cause what was it,
20 years ago?
In the wake
of hurricane thelma, dad--
he had a vision of rebirth.
Fake-ass turkey.
(children laugh)
(hushed) dig.
Eric, dig.
-Becky: All right.
-Eric: Hold that for me.
-Thank you.
-Eric: Back to you, mama.
(somber music)
margaret has put eric
in charge
of the charity missions.
How could she be so naive?
More like how could you
keep her that way?
It's not charitable
to lie to people.

(grunts)
(uneasy music)

ugh, another one of
margaret's holy roller weirdos
-is lurking in the parking lot.
-Woman: No way. Where?
Come on.
Check it out.

he's just sitting there,
staring.
He's not moving.
Ugh, it's weird.

he's here for me.
Hmm?
Everybody inside.
-Get inside now!
-(girls clamoring)
margaret:
Welcome back, everyone.
I just love a handwritten
letter, don't you?
It takes longer,
but it means so much more.
I so enjoy
our mother-daughter time,
getting to read letters
that our viewers
have written longhand.
Well, reach on in there,
rose, and pull out a goodie.
Rose: "dear margaret,
what you're doing by offering
"ginger sweet salvation
is warrior-esque.
Love you,
vicki from san luis obispo."
oh, I am truly touched
by that, vicki.
You sound like
a great mama bear.
"dear margaret,
rose is my favorite."
-margaret: Aww.
-Oh.
"I have a great, big crush
on her.
Sincerely, mark from colorado."
margaret:
Oh, well, isn't that sweet?
Audience: Aww.
She's glowing.
-She's in love.
-How do you know?
-A mother knows.
-Margaret: If his penmanship
is anything to go off of,
you got a real catch.
I think we have time
for one more.
Rose, what is it?
I'm not reading this.
You do it.
(tense music)
"dear margaret,
ginger sweet will burn in hell.
The wages of sin areDeath."
well, that's a bit much.
Ginger sweet's
a filthy slut whore!
-(crowd exclaims)
-margaret: Please!
Please,
let's just all stay calm.
Ginger sweet, she's aroused
some strong feelings,
but we--together,
we can get through this.
Isn't that right, sweetie?
Now we're gonna
take a little break
and come right back.
-Thanks, rose.
-Eric: Hey, little girl,
that was very rude,
what you did back there.
I'm out here doing good deeds,
and you're heckling me.
Where are your parents?
Earning bank to get us
out of here.
(children laughing playfully)
(water dripping)
(somber music)

the river's coming up again.

y'all sent it for christmas.
Has it been on a diet
since then?
(scoffs)

next year,
just send us the guts.
My next guest has taught me
the healing power
of the blended family.
Please give
a big old sunnyclub welcome
to my stepson antonio.
Oh, where's your shirt?
Antonio.
(laughs)
you can't cook
dressed like that.
Antonio: Well, I want
to share something
I love more than food.
Oh, haven't we had
enough fighting for one day?
See, martial arts
isn't really about the fight.
It's about defusing situations
before they get too hot.
Well, I think that's
a useful lesson any day.
You want to show me?
-You got it.
-Margaret: Okay.
Where do you want me to stand?
Antonio: Real pros
always stay in control,
so stay perfectly still,
margaret.
Okay.
-(exhales sharply)
-(crowd exclaims)
oh, boy.
(laughs)
are you ready
to take it up a notch?
I'm ready.
(cheers and applause)
(rapidly sharply exhaling)
yopi:
What is he doing?
He's supposed to be
playing nice.
He's gonna break her nose.
(cheers and applause)
I didn't flinch once.
Can you believe that?
Give it up for my boy antonio.
Yopi: Your boy?
He's a star.
He's my star.
Rose: I'm so sorry.
I mean, she played us both.
Well, the stupid thing is,
I always dreamed
of being on this show,
out there with you and eric
(soft music)
with my kinder and cleaner mom,
and now I finally got
my chance,
and everyone hates me,
well, except you.

they don't hate you.
They hate the character
mom and the reverend
created.

look, just go out there
and speak your truth.
Be braver than the rest of us.

(cell phone buzzes)
another one
of margaret's stalkers
has your mom
totally freaked out.
Did you call the cops?
No, your mom won't let me.
Is everything okay?
-You're next.
-I have to go.
You can't leave.
Hey!
Crap.
Being a mother--
oh, it's hard work.
Some days, you just want
to tear your hair out,
but my next guest
Norah: Abort.
Margaret, abort.
Ginger is awol.
Ginger is awol.
Pivot to the choir.
Pivot to the choir.
Makes me want to tear
my hair out with joy.
Please welcome back
for an encore,
the royal boys choir!
(applause)
it seems our world
has gone astray ♪
where peace and love's
replaced with hate ♪
and everyone can see
this is true ♪

why are you out there?
Our show is live.
One of your creepy fans
is outside the motel,
and my girls are too scared
to go outside.
I got this.
I'll head over now.
Thank you.
Are you happy with yourself?
You've spent your show
whipping them up against me.
Ginger, you can't blame
our audience for being upset
after your wet t-shirt stunt.
I blame you
for riling them up.
I blame them for acting on it,
but you for not stopping them.
Boys:
to make things right ♪
if you can guilt me ♪
we'll stop this together.
Now?
Right now?
Rose: Yes, yeah, good.
to end a war ♪
if you can use me,
then use me ♪
I often wonder how'd it be ♪
if every nation
lived in peace ♪
and everybody
just got along ♪

I know this may not
be today ♪
before we move on,
I have something to say.
At this very moment,
ginger sweet's mother
is being threatened.
(crowd murmurs)
now, sometimes good people--
they get carried away,
but here
at the sunshine network,
we remain a family.
Violence
That's never the answer.

when we are disrespected,
we turn the other cheek.
I never should have let her
go on tv.
It's not safe.
Now, ginger and I--
we are gonna talk
through our differences,
like mother and daughter.
Ginger,
will you work with me on this?
Boys: so if you can use me,
use me ♪
to make a change,
to make a change ♪
if you can use me,
use me, to lead the way ♪
-I'd love to.
-Boys: to lead the way ♪
if you can use me,

boy: if you can use me ♪
oh, won't you use me? ♪
boy: if you can use me ♪
then use ♪

ginger sweet after the break.
You don't want to miss it.
(tense music)
you got my letter.
That was reckless.
You used your real name.
Sorry.
I just really like you,
and I can't tell anyone.
Just, I want to be careful.
I already lost my dad.
I don't want to lose you too.
-The man is gone.
-Mm-hmm.
Everybody's okay,
so you focus your energy, okay?
-Mm-hmm.
-Okay.
Hello, everybody.
(cheers and applause)
thank you, darling.
Woman: You're welcome, margaret.
You just be yourself, sweetie.

eric?
Eric, wait.
My mother is raising money
off buildings
that should be condemned.
We need to take care of this.
No, you need
to take care of this.
You just got this job,
and you're already
running back to mommy?
I'm not running back to--
okay, I mean, I was running,
like, physically, but I'm not--
if you need counsel,
go sit with my brother.
Leave your mother out of this.
If daddy were here, I would
lean on him for advice, but--
if your daddy were here,
you wouldn't have this job.
Man up.

and we're back
with ginger sweet.
(cheers and applause)
now, ginger,
ginger, I know we've had
a lot of salty words
swirling around
for the last few days
since your, uh, baptism.
And you and the reverend have
certainly fanned the flames.
I'm not a firefighter.
I'm just a concerned mother,
and I want this to be
a teachable moment
for everyone,
because I believe
that there are very good people
on both sides
of this situation.
-(laughs)
-why are you laughing, sweetie?
-By all means, carry on.
-Okay.
Well, I want to start off
by saying
I don't think
you're a bad person.
-Thank you.
-But what you did--
well, that hurt me.
That hurt a lot of people.
You turned
our holiest sacrament
into a wet t-shirt contest,
and I'm just wondering,
do you think
that the 2.5 billion people
who believe in christ are dumb?
-No, I don't.
-Oh.
I believe in christ,
but is there no room
in this dialogue for contrary,
provocative thought?
Oh, is that
what you were doing,
provoking an intellectually
stimulating dialogue?
Well, that's why you
invited me here, isn't it?
For a teachable moment.
I am just trying to help you
understand your actions--
they have consequences.
Oh.
So the stalkers,
the hate mail,
the spitting--I asked for it?
(laughs)
really shoring up
those feminist bona fides
there, margaret.
Is it feminist to sell
your body on the internet?
Yes.
My body belongs to me.
I say what happens to it.
I say what I do with it.
So every prostitute
is a feminist? Hmm.
I didn't say that,
and please don't infer
that I am a prostitute,
not that there is
anything wrong with that.
There have been
sacred prostitutes
since the beginning of time;
ishtar, aphrodite.
People understood that bodies
were to be celebrated.
Psalm 25:3,
"no one who hopes in you
"will ever be put to shame,
but shame will come on those
who are treacherous
without cause."
the "you" in that scripture
is god, not ginger sweet.
Well, what's the difference
if we both bring people
to ecstasy?
(audience exclaims)
oh, you're really
playing with fire.
Oh, I haven't even lit
the match.
(disquieting music)
men come to us desperate
for connection,
and we honor their trust.
We provide what they're clearly
not getting at home.
Well, providing for a man--
that's a lot more than just
stripping off your clothes.
Isn't that right, ladies?
(cheers and applause)
well, if you had provided
for eugene,
he wouldn't have had
to step out
with my mother in las vegas.
(dramatic music)
hi, mom, if you're watching.
And don't fool yourself,
margaret.
It wasn't just sex.
Eugene loved her.
He came to her for salvation,
and she gave him
what you couldn't.

well, do you have
anything to say?

do I have anything to say?
For years, I kept my mouth shut
as eugene cheated on me
with one woman after another.
I knew, and I stayed silent
to protect my family,
but how dare you compare
adultery to salvation?
Women like you--you're selfish.
You don't give a second thought
to who or what you destroy.
I built a life with eugene,
a business, a family,
and then some tawdry showgirl
sees what I've built
and comes for it?
Hmm, you can call that
providing if you want to,
but when that temporary thrill
of new and shiny wears off,
men like eugene--
they come home with their tail
between their legs,
and do you know why?
Because unlike you,
we protect them
from their worst natures.
We make them feel decent
and good, while you,
you plunge them
into guilt and shame.
After every affair,
eugene came home to me!
And I took him back
because I swore an oath
before god
until death do us part.
So if that means
being publicly humiliated
and having to give airtime to
some pornographic sass mouth,
well, so be it.
God tests women like me
with women like you,
and even if I want
to rake my nails
across that gorgeous
harlot face of yours,
well, I won't,
because eugene--he might have
taken everything away from me,
but I still have my dignity,
you cheap, trashy,
sanctimonious little slut!

well,
do you have anything
to say?
(dramatic music)
margaret?

well, we'll be right back.
Don't you go away.
Right here with ginger sweet.
Well done, you.
Well done.
Well done.
Come back.
(indistinct chatter)
have you been down
to the missions?
They are falling apart.
They were eugene's
responsibility.
Sunny missions is basically
a slumlord.
That's bad news
ahead of the launch.
That's bad news anytime.
That's not who we are.
Of course.
Our friends here,
they're contractors over there.
We'll catch them up
after the show.
Oh, hey,
uncle virgil, townes, don.
Paul told us you were
the right man for the job.
Good work, son.
Don't disappoint us
like your father did.
You're the guy now.
(uneasy country music)

take a walk.
You used my name
to get backstage,
and I didn't say
you could be here.
I figured if ginger was gonna
try and slay the dragon,
some news
was bound to shake loose.
You abused our friendship.
Look, here's what I know.
Eric is married to the sister
of reverend paul thomas,
who seems to know a lot more
about eugene's
secret love children
than he's ready to say.
Oh, and when you
pulled me away,
eric and your rev
were whispering
with some of the most
powerful men in louisiana.
What am I missing?

"where two or three
have gathered in my name,
there am I with them,"
matthew 18:20.
Scripture?
I asked you a question.

and I just threw you
the bone I promised.

bye.

can I get you anything,
a water?
-I'm fine.
-Excuse me.
-Who are you?
-She's your pa.
I've never seen her
before in my life.
-I love you, margaret.
-Norah: And we're back
in three, two
(yells)
rot in hell, you sinner!
(dramatic music)

I'm--I'm so sorry.
Norah?
Can--can we go
to commercial, norah?
Ginger: No.
I want everyone
to see this.
Oh, no, no, we need to get
you cleaned up, sweetie.
I watched your show
every day growing up!
I learned how to cook from you,
how to read scripture!
I dreamed of meeting you
one day,
of being on this stage!
This is not the way
it was supposed to go.
You have to believe me.
Oh, I almost believe you,
margaret.

thanks for the homecoming.
-Roll the promo now.
-Woman: Roll the promo.
Roll it now.
Margaret: Matthew 26:15 asks,
"what are you willing
to give me if I"
margaret?
Are you okay?

I've never seen anything
like that before.
I don't even know
what happened.

bring me my stool.
She's only brought out
the stool twice before,
once after 9/11,
and the other
when the supreme court
affirmed gay marriage.
What you just witnessed
was disturbing.
(light music)
I feel terrible
for the public humiliation
that ginger was subjected to.
As a mother, I aspire daily
to guide and protect my family,
and I accomplished neither
of those goals today.
I know that you're angry
about what ginger said
about me and christianity,
and in turn,
I know ginger's angered
by the way
she and her mother
have been treated,
and so I ask the lord,
where do we go from here?
Do we continue
to threaten one another,
give up on one another?
No.
We christians--
like good carpenters,
we build a bridge
of forgiveness.
We don't mock.
We don't tempt.
We invest.
Now, here
at the sunshine network,
we invest in ourselves
and in the ginger sweets
of this world,
as others have invested in us,
good people
like governor virgil love,
don bouchard,
and townes dockerty.
Norah, can we swing a camera
on these fine people
in the front row?
Camera five,
swing to the front row.
-Take camera five.
-When eugene--
stop me
if you've heard this.
When eugene and I,
when we were at
a little public access channel
in natchitoches,
those three gentlemen
right there,
they--they saw
something special,
and they gave us our shot.
I know the fat one.
He like to wear heels.
We've gotta get
the hell out of town.
And ginger, we may not have
saved you today,
but we will continue to invest
because we believe
in redemption,
and if you want proof,
you gotta look no further
than your brother jason.
Jason, are you here?
Please stand up, honey.
Camera two, find jason.
Take camera two.
A few weeks ago,
jason--are you ready for this?
He was a drug dealer.
I know.
He was living in a trailer
in colorado,
and look at him now,
saved and safe
in the bosom of our family
because, again, you got it,
we invested.

I see you, jason.
The whole world sees you.
Tk: Dude, that's mark.
-Mark?
-Dude, I'm telling you.

dude.
Margaret: So invest
in sunnyclub today,
and we together, we will win
ginger sweet back to christ.
(applause)

(laughs)
now, we're gonna
be here tomorrow
and the day after tomorrow
and the day after that
and the day after that
and the day after that.
We will be investing
in one another.
May we all rise in god's glory.
Juliette: Eugene.

have mercy on me.
It's--it's charity.
Oh, that's just
old-fashioned thieving, son.
Officer: Let's go.
Margaret: Thank you!
Walk, eugene.
Just keep walking.
Margaret: You all run along.
I'll see you tomorrow!
Seeing you do our thing
with her
It really hurt
my heart, you know?
He was there, mami.
Don bouchard himself.
I had to make an impression.
(speaking spanish)
(speaking spanish)
(somber music)
ms. Sweet?
I'm sorry
for what happened to you.
(car horn honks)
(scoffs)

there's my ride.

hot priest.
-He's a reverend.
-There's a difference?

hey, that guy
from the parking lot
He left this for you.

is that your mom?

-how is she?
-She's fine,
but get this.
Those guys in margaret's
audience, her friends?
The girls knew them.
They're customers.
(country rock music)

the next time one of them
signs in, record him.
Record them all.

but that's not us.
Our clients trust us.
Who doesn't want
to be on camera?

it's the one thing
jason asked you not to do,
and you couldn't help yourself.
I mean, you promised.
I'm just doing the best I can.
The best for who?
The best for who?
What--that crap you pulled
with ginger out there,
it may sell
sunnyclub subscriptions,
but I thought
it was disgusting,
and the whole woman-on-woman
catfight thing,
mom, it's--it's just--
it's so tired.
Well, I'm tired too, rose.
I'm tired of working my ass off
so that my daughters,
now suddenly plural,
have the privilege
of constantly telling me
how much I disappoint them.
Well, at least we can agree
on that.
I am disappointed.
(somber music)
gentlemen,
the houses are collapsing.
Water's undrinkable.
People are in need,
and we'll be there.
To charity.
All: To charity.
(upbeat music)

I left a message.
Good.
I know you fellas are worried,
but as long as the ladies
are fighting,
the right hand won't know
what the left is doing.
-(laughter)
-cheers.
Eric:
I started my new job today.
Oh.
How did it go?
I'm gonna make
a lot of lives better.
How about you start with me?
Let me see you.

(sighs)

it's you.
You're the guy.

I'm the guy.
(chuckles)

(computer beeps)
franklin:
Your boys won't give up
on a piece of sunnyclub,
particularly
after today's show.
Subscriptions are selling
through the roof.
I'll bring them out
to the camp.
I'll use
a little ponchatoula honey
to gently decline
their investment.
Biscuits and honey
might not satisfy them.
I do have other recipes.
(chuckles)
(laid-back country music)
(upbeat music)
