:26:07
Yea!
:26:10
We will raise a family
:26:12
- A gal for you
- And a boy for me
:26:15
Can't you see how happy
we will be
:26:20
Yea. Terrific!
:26:25
Well, that was fabulous.
Thank you. That was great.
:26:27
- Yeah, that meal was fabulous.
- Oh.
:26:31
I was gonna try to cook
some authentic soul food...
:26:34
but then I got afraid
it wouldn't turn out all right.
:26:36
- That's fine. Fine.
- But I love the soul food.
:26:39
Burt and I ate it at a little place...
:26:42
in the East Village
that specializes in it.
:26:43
- Do you remember, Burt?
- Hmm?
:26:45
Oh, yeah. Yeah, that-
that tiny place, yeah.
:26:47
It's run by
an elderly Afro-American woman.
:26:51
- I didn't know they had soul food in Africa.
- Pass the wine, Junior.
:26:55
- It was a fabulous meal.
- Thank you.
:26:57
- We had grits, black-eyed peas...
- Ooh.
:26:59
okra and pig's knuckle.
:27:01
I got pig knuckles runnin' outta my ears.
My mother makes 'em every night.
:27:06
Leroy's living with
his mother temporarily.
:27:08
- That's wonderful.
- I don't know about that.
:27:11
She nags me from morning till night.
:27:13
"Get a job. Get a job.
Go out and get yourself a job!"
:27:17
She's gettin' meaner and meaner.
:27:19
- How old is your mother?
- Ninety.
:27:22
She's riled because she's workin'
and I'm not.
:27:25
Well, she must be an extraordinary woman
to be able to work at that age.
:27:29
Well, she does cleaning
two days a week.
:27:31
Isn't that fantastic?
:27:33
It's not as if I'm not tryin'.
:27:37
I go out every day trying to find
another janitorial job.
:27:40
They're tearin' down more buildings
than they're building up.
:27:42
Right. Well, listen, have you tried
the, uh, unemployment office?
:27:45
They tore down
the one in our area.
:27:47
I'm going downtown
to the main office tomorrow.
:27:49
- What about welfare?
- My mother's on welfare.
:27:52
I thought you said
she was working.
:27:54
Welfare don't know she's working.
:27:57
Besides, that's scratch for me.
:27:59
- It's better than nothing.
- For her, it is.
