[ CHUCKLES ] I HAVE TO BE.

WHERE I COME FROM, THERE'S ONLY TWO WAYS OUT --
EITHER DEAD OR IN JAIL.

OH, YEAH? YEAH.
IN MY CANARY YELLOW?
EH, I FORGIVE THE YELLOW FOR THE FACE.
OH, OH, OKAY.
[ BOTH LAUGH ]
OH, MY GOD.
WHEN I WAS A KID, ALL I WANTED TO DO WAS SING.
YOU KNOW, I USED TO HIDE OUT IN THE BASEMENT
AND DRESSED UP IN MY MOMMY'S GOWNS
AND SING ALONG TO A RECORD
PRETENDING I WAS MY COUSIN DIONNE OR ARETHA
OR GLADYS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
AND DADDY WOULD BE POUNDING ON THE FLOOR
SCREAMING AT MOMMY, "CAN'T YOU STOP THAT NOISE?!"
AND THAT'S WHEN SHE MADE ME GO SING IN CHURCH.
SHE SAID, "IF YOU CAN DO IT FOR GLADYS,
YOU CAN DO IT FOR THE LORD." [ LAUGHS ]
I USED TO DANCE TO MICHAEL.
I USED TO PUT GLITTER ALL OVER MY SNEAKERS.
I PUT SO MUCH ON,
YOU COULDN'T EVEN TELL WHAT BRAND THEY WERE.
[ BOTH LAUGH ]
MY MOM USED TO GET SO MAD.
SHE'D SAY, "ROBERT BARISFORD BROWN, BOY,
NOW I KNOW THEM AIN'T THE SHOES I BOUGHT YOU LAST WEEK."
OKAY. [ LAUGHS ]
BUT I THOUGHT I WAS PRETTY FLY.
YOU'RE STILL PRETTY FLY.
IT'S EASY TO TALK TO YOU.
YOU TOO.
ALL RIGHT.
BREAK IT TO ME GENTLY.
I HEARD YOU HAVE KIDS.
[ CHUCKLES ] TWO.
I LOVE 'EM.
AND I TAKE CARE OF MY RESPONSIBILITIES FOR 'EM.
BUT BACK THEN, I HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WANTED.
A CASE OF THE BIG HEAD BEING LED BY THE LITTLE ONE, I GUESS.
WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

YOU KNOW BOBBY BROWN PRETTY WELL, DON'T YOU?
YEAH.
WHAT WAS HE LIKE WHEN YOU FIRST MET HIM?
WILD. AMBITIOUS.
UM...TALENTED AS HELL.
BUT UNDERNEATH, YOU COULD SEE
THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER SIDE TO HIM.
HE WAS SMART, WARM.
HE JUST NEEDED TO FIND A WAY TO EXPRESS HIMSELF.
I MEAN, DON'T GET ME WRONG.
HE'S CRAZY LIKE THE REST OF US,
BUT FUNDAMENTALLY, HE'S A GOOD PERSON.
[ DOOR SLIDES CLOSED ]
I'M READY.
[ LAUGHS ] LET'S DO IT.
Sister: THEATRICAL MAKEUP IS TERRIBLE FOR MY FACE, MAMA.
Effie: SISTER...
BABY...
HE'S JUST GONNA DRAG YOU...
TO THE GUTTER WITH HIM.
GUTTER? MM-HMM.
HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT?
HE'S AS BIG-TIME AS YOU CAN GET! ...AS YOU CAN GET!
I'VE LIVED IN HARLEM ALL MY LIFE.
[ INHALES SHARPLY ]
I DO KNOW A RAT WHEN I SEE ONE.
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, MAMA. YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, MAMA.

[ EXHALES SOFTLY ]
WHERE ARE YOU? DOWN IN ATLANTA?
No. No. Boston.
WHY, YOU WANT ME TO COME OVER?
[ Laughs ]
WHAT, FROM BOSTON?
I COULD BE DOWN IN FOUR HOURS.
DON'T BE CRAZY.
TOO LATE.
WHERE YOU GOING? SOMETHING CAME UP.
MM-HMM, I BET IT DID.
OH, DON'T BE THAT WAY. I'LL CATCH YOU LATER.
YOU'RE GOING TO HER, AREN'T YOU?
AND WHAT ABOUT LaPRINCIA?

WHAT'S WRONG, BABY?
WHAT'S THE MATTER?
YOU WEREN'T ALONE LAST NIGHT, WERE YOU?
BOBBY, COME ON. DON'T LIE TO ME.
[ SILVERWARE CLATTERS ]
YOU'RE RIGHT.
[ SIGHS ] YOU'RE RIGHT.
I WAS WITH KIM.
OH, SEE, YOU SAID YOU WERE DONE WITH THAT.
LOOK, I AM DONE WITH THAT, OKAY? TOTALLY DONE WITH THAT.
BABY, LISTEN, IT'S JUST...
[ SIGHS ]
LOOK, BABY. WAIT, WAIT, WAIT. OKAY?
IT'S JUST I THOUGHT YOU DIDN'T WANT ME NO MORE.
AND I GET LONELY WITHOUT YOU.
YOU ARE THE ONE I LOVE.
YOU KNOW THAT.
YOU'RE THE ONE I WANT.
THE ONLY ONE.
YOU'RE MY BABY. YOU'RE MY WOMAN. YOU ARE MY HEART, HMM?
GIVE IT TO ME.
MM.
SO, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?
[ SIGHS ] I THINK HE'S PLANNING TO PROPOSE.
IS THAT A GOOD THING?
HE MAKES ME LAUGH.
YOU KNOW, HE'S A FAMILY MAN.
HE LOVES ME. I KNOW THAT.
AND I LOVE HIM.
I DON'T WANT TO LOSE THIS CHANCE.
BUT?
[ SIGHS ] I DON'T KNOW.
"I DON'T KNOW."
NIPPY, YOU ALWAYS KNOW.
I'M AFRAID OF MAKING A MISTAKE.
YOU KNOW, THE WORST DAY OF MY LIFE WAS WHEN DADDY LEFT MOMMY.
I DON'T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN TO ME.
AND I KNOW IT'S GONNA UPSET A LOT OF PEOPLE.
WHAT'S IN YOUR HEART?
THAT'S WHAT YOU SHOULD FOLLOW.
FOLLOW YOUR HEART.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
YEAH. REALLY?
YEAH. [ LAUGHS ]
I MEAN, REALLY? YES! YES!
WELL, IN THAT CASE...
BOBBY! [ LAUGHS ]
NO, NO, NO, COME ON BACK. COME ON.
[ GASPS ] [ BOTH LAUGH ]
WHAT, YOU THOUGHT I WAS GONNA MARRY YOU
WITH THAT CHEAP PIECE OF CRAP?
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU PUNKED ME LIKE THAT!
I HAD TO MAKE SURE YOU WEREN'T MARRYING ME FOR MY MONEY.
[ BOTH LAUGH ]
OH.
[ GASPS, LAUGHS ]
I LOVE ME SOME YOU.

ME TOO.
GIRL, LET ME HEAR YOU SAY IT.
WHY? YOU ALREADY KNOW I DO.
I AIN'T GONNA BELIEVE IT TILL I HEAR IT.
I LOVE YOU, BOBBY.
SAY IT SOME MORE.
I LOVE YOU, BOBBY. SAY IT SOME MORE.
I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU!
I LOVE YOU.
I LOVE YOU, AND I WANT TO HAVE KIDS
AND HAVE A HAPPY, NORMAL LIFE.

[ Singsong voice ] I'M GETTING MARRIED.
[ ALL SHOUTING ]
WHO GONNA MARRY YOU, NIPPY?!
HUSH UP, SON.
LET ME SEE! LET ME SEE! [ GASPS ]
I JUST HOPE IT'S NOT BOBBY BROWN.
[ SHOUTING STOPS ]
IT IS.
I SPENT MY LIFE TRYING TO KEEP YOU AND YOUR BROTHERS
OUT OF THE PROJECTS.
NOW YOU MARRYING INTO THEM?
HE'S NOT IN THEM ANYMORE.
DON'T BELIEVE IT.
YOU CAN TAKE THE BOY OUT THE GHETTO,
BUT NOT THE GHETTO OUT THE BOY.
NIPPY, HE'S GOT KIDS.
YEAH, BY TWO DIFFERENT WOMEN.
AND HE'S A GOOD FATHER TO THEM.
AND THE POINT IS, WE LOVE EACH OTHER VERY MUCH.
AND I DON'T WANT ANYTHING
TO STAND IN THE WAY OF OUR HAPPINESS.
I THOUGHT Y'ALL WOULD BE HAPPY FOR ME.
WHITNEY, THIS IS NOT RIGHT, AND I THINK YOU KNOW THAT.
YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN STUBBORN,
BUT NOW YOU'RE ONLY HURTING YOURSELF.
YOU ALREADY HAD GARY WHEN DADDY MARRIED YOU.
THAT WAS DIFFERENT, AND YOU KNOW IT WAS.
WHY IS IT ALWAYS DIFFERENT WHEN IT COMES TO ME?
WHITNEY!
NIPPY!
WHERE WERE YOU? ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?
OH, AM I HAPPY NOW? YOU DO THIS ALL THE TIME.
WHERE WERE YOU? YOU'RE HEAD OF SECURITY.
ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.
JUST TAKE IT EASY. WE'LL FIGURE THIS OUT.
SHE'S STILL OUR BABY.
Michael: NICE, MOM. REAL NICE.
[ DOOR UNLOCKS ]
[ GASPS ] HEY, BABY.
WHY YOU SITTIN' IN THE DARK?
WHAT'S WRONG, BOBBY?
HMM?
WHAT IS IT?
SHE PREGNANT.
WHO IS?
KIM.
KIM?
BABY, I CAN EXPLAIN THIS.
NO! I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THIS.
WHITNEY! WAIT. BABY, WAIT!
NO! NO! WHITNEY!
NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. PLEASE!
NO, YOU TELL ME THIS AFTER I TELL MY FAMILY!
I JUST FOUND OUT, I SWEAR!
NO, YOU DON'T NEED THAT, OKAY? YOU HAVE ME. I'M HERE!
I DON'T HAVE YOU. SHE HAS YOU.
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TWO KIDS WITH HER NOW?!
LOOK, THIS HAPPENED BEFORE WE GOT BACK TOGETHER! I TRUSTED YOU.
BUT YOU HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.
I'M NOT GOING BACK TO HER. WELL, YOU SHOULD!
NO, LISTEN, I'M NOT GOING BACK TO HER.
THAT'D BE UNFAIR TO ALL OF US.
OKAY? I LOVE YOU. THIS CHANGES NOTHING.
HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT? BECAUSE IT'S TRUE.
YOU'VE BEEN WITH HER SINCE YOU WERE 11.
YOU OBVIOUSLY STILL LOVE HER.
SHE HAS NO HOLD ON ME ANYMORE.
SHE'S PREGNANT!
I'D SAY THAT'S A HOLD.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF MY BABY, OKAY?
I ALWAYS TAKE CARE OF MY KIDS. YOU KNOW THAT!
[ SNIFFING ]
BUT I AIN'T GOT TO BE WITH HER TO DO THAT.
PLEASE! LISTEN TO ME!
I CANNOT STAND THE THOUGHT OF LOSING YOU!
MNH-MNH, WHITNEY, PLEASE! PLEASE!
WHY? COME ON. WHY?
BOBBY, DON'T YOU GET IT?
[ Voice breaking ] I WANTED TO BE THE ONE TO HAVE YOUR BABY.
ME!
YOU WILL.
AS SOON AS YOU CAN, WHENEVER YOU ARE READY.
I PROMISE YOU SHE WILL NEVER COME BETWEEN US.
NO ONE WILL, EVER.
UNLESS WE LET THEM.
BOBBY, LISTEN TO ME.
I'M PUTTING EVERYTHING ON THE LINE --
MY CAREER, EVERYTHING.
FOR THE FIRST TIME, I'M PUTTING MYSELF FIRST,
AND I'M CHOOSING YOU.
I NEED THIS TO BE REAL.

IF WE DID IT ONCE, WE CAN AGAIN.
HEY, HEY, HEY. COME HERE.

I SHOULD JUST STICK TO MUSIC.
THAT'S -- THAT'S HOW PEOPLE KNOW ME.
THAT'S WHAT THEY LOVE ME FOR.
NOW, YOU LISTEN TO ME.

AND NOT JUST FOR YOU, YOU UNDERSTAND?
AND I'M GONNA STAY WITH YOU.
W-WHAT ABOUT YOUR RECORD TOUR?
I'LL CANCEL THE REST OF IT.
BOBBY, NO.
HEY, WHO'S KING OF STAGE?
