1
[NOVA] previously on queen sugar
[CALVIN] who are you praying for?
Prosper.
[NOVA] removing some of the loneliness.
The despair I believe
he's starting to feel.
- [VIOLET] how's Micah?
- [CHARLEY] coming home.
Yeah, well, good luck.
It's this girl I go to school
with. She look like Sza.
And she is obsessed with you.
Please say hi and make her day?
[VIOLET] I know your
mama's on your mind.
[COUGHING]
- And that don't sound good.
- [WILLA MAE] I'm fine.
Like I said, we got this.
We just gotta believe.
[RALPH] I'm here to solve
your problems, miss Thompson.
- [MISS THOMPSON] can you start on Monday?
- Yes, I can.
[GROANS IN FRUSTRATION]
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
[RALPH] damn!
I ain't know all that was under there.
[DARLA] isn't it beautiful?
It's totally original
and perfectly preserved.
I'm gonna clean it today.
And then, voila!
You're gonna come home
to a brand-new chair.
Can't wait. Hey, babe
Your uniform's on the clothesline.
[CHUCKLES]
- [RALPH] thank you. Appreciate you.
- [DARLA] mmm-hmm.
I know ♪
This summer is a new day dawning ♪

[RALPH] hey, buddy.
I'm about to be out.
See you later tonight.
I like that new outfit. It's very nice.
Oh, thank you.
Oh! Before you go, mommy said
that your new work clothes
can't come in the house
when you come home.
- It's a precaution.
- [RALPH] mmm.
Not just for us.
But it's also for the elderly
people pop sees everyday.
- Yeah.
- [DARLA] so you don't get them sick.
You know, they take my
temperature every day I go to work.
Just to make sure we all straight.
Yeah, I was just reading
about the temperature-taking
that everyone's doing these days.
And the normal body temperature can
actually fall into a much wider
range than most people think.
Common knowledge is that the
average human body temperature
is 98.6 degrees fahrenheit,
but really anything from 97 all the
way up to 99 can be considered healthy.
It's usually lower in the morning,
goes up during the day,
peaks in the late afternoon or evening.
Sometimes as much
as just one or two degrees.
[CHUCKLES]
[RALPH] give me some.
That's how you do your schoolwork.
- That's your son.
- It's your son.
I'll see you later, baby.
Have a good day.
Be good to your mama.
- [BLUE] I will.
- [RALPH] keep that up, Blue.
- [BLUE] I will. [CHUCKLES]
- [RALPH] give me some more information
when I get back.
I thought I smelled something good.
- [CALVIN] good morning.
- Good morning.
Mmm!
The five-star treatment.
For a five-star lady.
- You're spoiling me.
- [CHUCKLES]
I'm also thinking
you're up to something.
Hmm. Something big.
I'm listening.
My kid's college.
They're sending everyone home.
She asked if she could
quarantine with me.
Well, with us.
- Wow. Okay.
- Yeah.
She's tested so
Things really didn't go so well
for me at your grandfather's party.
I know.
I know, but she wasn't a part of that.
All right? She was in her dorm in Texas.
So please don't lump her in with
her mother. They're different people.
Are they?
I'm seriously asking.
Are they different?
The mother and daughter
bond is a powerful one.
Yes, I know. But she is
nothing like her mother.
She's a young woman who's trying
to figure out her place in the world.
And her world is much bigger
than Hailey's ever was.
She's learning.
And she's growing.
How do I know Hailey's not
sending Courtney here to spy on me?
In my own home.
Hailey thinks I'm the black
bitch who wrecked her home.
Courtney hasn't listened to
a word her mother's said
since she was 15.
They're like oil and vinegar.
And that's not what's happening here.
Look, I can't say no to your kid.
I'm not
Comfortable with it.
But I'm not gonna keep you
from your children.
Thank you.
You know, Courtney hasn't looked
at me the same since the divorce.
But she's a great kid.
She's smart, independent.
This could be my chance to reconnect
with her and get my daughter back.
[UPBEAT SONG PLAYING]
[MICAH] look at you!
Not the shoulder bop! [LAUGHS]
This is the most relaxed
I've seen you in weeks, ma.
[CHARLEY] this is not relaxation.
It's
- Acceptance.
- Mmm-hmm.
You know, I figured if we're gonna be living
like this, for a while, we may as well
Make it enjoyable. Sometimes, at least.
Mmm-hmm. Good point.
Mmm-hmm. You know,
I have my son, I am
Not alone, I'm not sick.
You're not sick.
As long as we keep it that way
how
bad could staying at home be, you know?
I know.
Need some help?
You know I always
need some help in the kitchen.
You wanna grab those carrots?
- Yeah, I'm just gonna wash my hands.
- Yeah.
You know, when you were little,
you couldn't wait to
help me in the kitchen.
- Really?
- Mmm-hmm.
- Well, I don't remember that.
- [CHARLEY LAUGHS]
this was back before,
you know, we had help.
Back when we were just starting out.
People say that things are
best when things are simple.
Or even hard.
I didn't believe that back then.
What about now?
If we could just take this
horrible virus away, but leave the
Quiet connection, you know.
The downtime.
I'd take it in a heartbeat.
Yeah. It's really nice when you can
drown out all the drama
and stuff and just
[CHARLEY] mmm-hmm.
Speaking of drama,
what's going on in your world?
I don't know what you're talking about.
Tell me about this new
girl you've been
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
Wow!
It's her?
Y'all must be on the same wavelength.
Hey.
Ah, this is a great time. What's up?
What you rocking with?
Sza over salad.
- [CELL PHONE RINGING]
- [EXHALES DEEPLY]
[VIOLET] Hollywood. How's it going?
They won't let me in, Vi.
They won't let me see my own mother.
I thought they were gonna
make an exception.
They changed their mind.
They said it wasn't safe.
Oh, baby, I'm sorry.
You know, I just sat in
that hospital parking lot.
For four days.
Just looking at windows.
I ain't even know
which one was hers so I
I picked one,
I stared at it and I prayed.
Now she in there all by herself.
Ain't breathing the way that they want,
saturation or something, I don't know.
But I know it ain't right.
I'm driving up there.
You don't need to be
by yourself right now.
No, no, no, no, no, baby, no.
No!
Nah, baby. I'm okay.
I don't wanna be worried
about both of y'all.
You stay right there.
Where you safe.
And I'll be okay.
As long as she okay.
Okay.
I guess you're right.
She gonna fight this thing.
She gonna come out of it.
Yes.
And we claim it in his mighty name.
- Amen.
- Amen.
- I love you, shay.
- I love you, baby.
[HANGS UP]
Amen.
[UPBEAT SONG PLAYING]
- When did she and her friend leave?
- A while ago.
They're driving straight through.
She should be crossing
to Louisiana in
A couple of hours.
Do you think she'll like this towel set?
Or this one? Like, is
Is she into pinks or greys?
I'm a little embarrassed to say, but
I don't know what she's into these days.
But I am excited and eager
to find out. [CHUCKLES]
I know she's gonna love you.
[SCOFFS SOFTLY]
That's nice of you to say,
but no offense,
we're not even sure she loves you.
[DOORBELL RINGS]
- Dad.
- Hey, snuggles.
Oh, big fella!
You haven't called me that
since November 5th, 2012.
Like, you remember the exact date?
It was actually my 13th birthday party.
And I gave you
a contract where we agreed
you would never call me that again?
- [CHUCKLES]
- at least not in front of other people?
- Point taken. It's good to see you.
- [CHUCKLES]
[COURTNEY] oh!
Courtney,
this is Nova. Nova, this is Courtney.
It's a pleasure to meet you, Courtney.
Actually, it's a pleasure
to meet you, miss Nova.
I've heard a lot about you and
your work with the tru papers.
It's an honor.
[COURTNEY] can't wait to
get to know you.
Thanks for having me.
We're happy to have you.
[NOVA] here, come on.
I'll show you to your room.
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
Hollywood?
No, no. No, ma'am. This is prosper.
I got your message the other day.
Hey, prosper.
Good to hear back from you.
How you doing, over there?
Haven't heard from you in a bit.
Yeah. It has been a while.
I dropped some groceries
for you the other day.
Left them on the porch when
you didn't come to the door.
Oh, yeah, I got them. Thank you.
I'm sorry I didn't come to the door.
Can't be too careful.
Don't know if folks been tested or not.
Prosper, when's the last time
you left the house?
Got some fresh air?
- They say it ain't safe.
- I know.
I know. But you're the only
one on the land, right?
Might be nice to just
go out for a walk, sometime.
I get out sometimes.
And I'm all right. Honest, I am.
I know.
I know, but you
You know, we might be able
to help each other out.
A little, you know.
Hollywood is out of town
looking after his mother for a while.
Uh
I'm here by myself,
you're there by yourself.
Don't make sense for us to be
alone if we don't have to.
I could use some company.
I'm used to having
people around, you know.
I could make us some real
good home-cooked meals.
Well, that does sound good.
It could be fun.
What do you say?
Why don't you pack a bag
and come out my way?
Just for a little while.
- I'm on my way.
- All right. I'll be waiting for you.
All right.
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
[MAN ON TV] And welcome
to fact or fiction
You mind if I join you?
- Felt guilty about dumping me, huh?
- No.
You know, contrary
to what you may think,
I actually like spending
time with my mother.
You've got a weird way of showing it.
I'm not old, Micah.
Old-ish?
Lukewarm old? [CHUCKLES]
like whatever's just before old.
- You know I knew who Sza was, right?
- That don't count.
[CHUCKLES]
I was
I was basically
a teenager when I had you.
- Yeah, what was that like?
- What?
You just never talk about getting
pregnant with me in college.
You know, being a mom so young.
I guess most people
don't know that I was
Almost a teenage mom, huh?
Yeah, you don't exactly fit the profile.
Hmm. No, I guess not.
I think for a long time I just I
felt like I had something to prove.
I was the good girl at a top university.
And messed up.
That's what people used to say.
Wait
Wait, people used to shame you about me?
Yeah, at first.
And telling daddy was one of the
hardest things I have ever done.
What did he say?
Not much.
He listened, and then he said,
"you are my amazing daughter.
I was proud of you yesterday
I'm proud of you today.
And I'm sure you're gonna
make me proud tomorrow."
Yeah, that sounds like grandad.
I miss him.
Hmm, me too.
But he didn't scream.
You know there wa
There was no lecturing.
And I think his faith in me,
it fueled me.
- That's beautiful.
- Yeah.
[CHUCKLES]
I got the university
to put your father and me
in graduate housing and [CHUCKLES]
And sacrificed my social life.
Got your grandmother
to help pay for sitters.
And I got serious about my success.
You know.
If I was gonna be a college mother,
I was gonna be the best college mother.
It was hard, but I did it.
Straight as and multiple
job offers on graduating.
And you haven't stopped running since.
I run for you.
You are what got me
through those hard times.
I just [SIGHS]
- I don't wanna fail you.
- You didn't.
Thank you.
No, thank you.
[CHUCKLES]
You know what, what are you watching?
[TV PLAYING INDISTINCTLY]
[PANTING]
[RALPH] oh, I'm sorry.
Oh, no. It's okay.
If my hands ain't moving,
they do me no good now,
are they? [LAUGHS]
- You're new around here.
- Yes, sir.
You like it?
Oh. A means to an end.
[RALPH] something like that.
Ralph Angel.
Ralph Angel? Now there's a name for you.
[LAUGHS]
Reggie Foster.
- Just a regular old name.
- Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Reggie.
[REGGIE] I've been living here
a little over a year now.
My wife, Zora Lee, has a
Little bit of dementia, so she's over in
the other building with people
that need a little more special care.
[RALPH] I'm sorry to hear that.
Oh, no need to be sorry, son.
- We've been together 57 years.
- 57?
Yes, sir. I'm the luckiest man
on this whole, big planet.
[RALPH] y'all really in it to win it,
huh?
Couldn't win it without her,
and wouldn't want to.
Hey, man, keep swinging, Mr. Reggie.
Thank you, Mr. Ralph Angel.
[REGGIE PANTING]
How we doing?
[DARLA] hmm.
Where Blue at?
[POP SONG PLAYING ON EARBUDS]
[RALPH LAUGHS]
How'd his lessons go today?
[DARLA] I couldn't keep up.
Everything I tried to give him to keep him
occupied, he just sped right through it.
I told you, he's smart.
[DARLA] he's bored.
Yeah, that's 'cause he's special.
That's good news, ain't it?
That boy gonna be somebody, someday.
[DARLA] of course, he is. It's just
I cannot
Engage him all day, everyday.
I still gotta get a new job.
I missed my na meeting.
And I just heard that 100,000
people are gonna die from this thing
by the summer. I'm just
[SIGHS]
I'm not complaining.
But just I'm overwhelmed.
- Come here.
- No.
[RALPH] turn around.
I will come here.
You know what to do.
You gonna be fine.
We gonna be fine and he gonna be fine.
[WHISPERING] we're gonna be fine.
Yes.
And you is fine!
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
[RALPH] come here. Mmm.
[RALPH] it's all good.
- [NOVA LAUGHING]
- [COURTNEY] well
Oh! You coming like that now. Okay.
Fourth book in a row.
- All right, all right.
- There's that.
- In your face, dad.
- All right. All right, all right.
You're not used to being owned
by your daughter, huh?
Listen, I am man enough
to admit she's winning.
But I didn't think she'd be
so aggressive about it.
Did he just call me aggressive?
I believe he did.
Listen, I didn't mean anything by it.
It's fine. I'm just wondering
if you ever said that
at poker night with the fellas.
[CALVIN] it's different.
How is that?
Okay when did I become the bad guy?
When you were born.
Like every other heterosexual
cisgendered white male.
Okay, wait a minute. "When I was born"?
What do they teach you at this college?
Look, I'm just saying
We're all born into a system.
Either it works for us, or against us.
Of course we all have choices
we can make,
but there's no such thing as neutrality.
These facts bear themselves
out in ways big and small.
Like your comment about
women being too aggressive
at a game that is literally
meant to be aggressive.
- Have you been giving her lessons?
- No!
But I must say
Well said, young lady.
Well said.
[CHUCKLING]
[VIOLET] come on in here.
Make yourself all the way home.
Are you sure Hollywood's not gonna mind
with all that stuff going
on with Willa Mae?
He was glad to hear
that you gonna be here
to help me with this house
while he's gone.
And he said to tell you he
will see you when he gets back
and that you are welcome and
wanted for as long as you want.
- Thank you.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]
this is your room, here.
[VIOLET] and you just
make yourself at home.
- Okay.
- [CELL PHONE RINGING]
Excuse me.
[VIOLET] hey, baby.
How is she? What's going on?
[HOLLYWOOD] Vi
They're taking her off
the ventilator, Vi.
Tonight.
Oh, my god!
Oh, Hollywood.
This
This is happening too fast.
Tell them you don't want that.
You have the choice.
They said it was just a matter of time.
That's what they said.
Now, I can keep her on it,
but if it ain't gonna do no good,
then what am I doing it for?
It'll just be for me.
Not for her.
Yeah, you right.
Her time is appointed.
Just thought I'd have more of it.
I know, baby. Me too.
[SIGHS]
Well, you think about
all the time you had.
The good times. The fun times.
The proud times.
Hollywood, she is so proud
of the man you are.
And I say "is" because, right now,
she's among the living.
She is here. Now tomorrow
She might be among the eternal.
But she'll still be near.
That's what we believe.
And if Willa Mae Desonier
gave you anything, baby,
- she gave you her faith.
- She did.
Her greatest gift to you.
So you lean into it.
[SIGHS]
You make her proud, Hollywood.
[CHARLEY] so, what are we
in the mood for?
We got vegetarian chili,
we got Turkey chili.
Um
Neither, actually. I think I'm okay.
How are you not hungry? I'm starving.
I think I found something.
Yeah, this might be something.
- Can you make me a copy of this?
- Yeah.
- Great job.
- Thanks.
Yeah.
[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]
Micah, your phone is, uh
[WOMAN ON PHONE] Micah, where
you at? This party's insane. Hurry up!
[MICAH] what are you doing?
What are you doing? That's not cool.
I'm the one not being cool?
Weren't you spying on me?
No, I picked it up to hand it to you.
Wait, is this why you're not hungry?
Are you saving
your appetite for a party?
In the middle of a pandemic?
I was just gonna go for a drive.
I wasn't even gonna go to the party.
So, there is a party.
With numbers climbing and you
were gonna go and hang out wi
Who is this new girl?
You're sneaking around.
You're making poor choices.
I'MMA need you to stop talking
to me like I'm a child.
Then stop acting like one.
I was just gonna stop
by for a second to say hello.
- [CHARLEY] what's her name, Micah?
- Amber.
Are you dating a white girl?
[CHUCKLES] you are really on one.
- I'm an adult, remember?
- Are you being safe?
- I'm an adult.
- Answer the question!
Are you being safe?
Okay.
We're living in the most dangerous
time in this country in 100 years.
And you decide to put me
and you at risk.
For for some rebound girl?
For sex?
Like father, like son.
I didn't mean that.
[NOVA] that was a good game.
- [CHUCKLES]
- it was fun.
"She said, surprisingly."
Well, you have to admit I had
or have a lot to be nervous about.
Given me and your father's history.
Your history is definitely
open to interpretation.
It's in the past.
I believe in moving forward.
It's the future that most concerns me.
My dad's future to be exact.
What do you mean?
It wasn't until my dad
was with you that I realized,
I have never seen him
completely at ease.
- Totally happy.
- Well, he's
He's happy you are here.
You, your brother, your sister.
He loves you.
He's a good man.
Always took care
of his responsibilities.
Still does.
But he was never happy.
His heart is so full when he's with you.
Any fool can see that.
I can see why.
You're very kind.
Thanks for having me here.
- Want some more?
- Oh. Yeah.
- You're done?
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]
- here you go.
- Whoa!
- Hold on.
- Oh.
[CHUCKLES]
Spoiling me, Vi.
- You deserve to relax.
- [SIGHS WITH RELIEF]
man, Hollywood's gonna be mad
when he gets here
and sees all this attention
you're giving me. [LAUGHS]
So, have you heard back from him yet?
Oh, prosper
I shouldn't have let him go by himself.
He's not doing good.
Willa Mae passed this morning.
No!
[STAMMERS]
I'm sorry, I thought she
would've made it through.
[SIGHS WEARILY]
[GROANS]
It's our age group.
Now after all we survived,
now we getting picked off one-by-one.
I mean she's the fifth person
I know passed in two months.
I mean five that's too much.
That's
Yeah.
I mean, why us?
And why this way?
I
[SIGHS]
[CRYING]
- We're gonna get through this.
- Yeah.
We're gonna get through this.
[BLUES SONG PLAYING]
[RALPH] what's going on, Mr. Reggie?
- How you making out?
- How you doing, Ralph Angel?
[RALPH] you got something
on your mind, og?
You know all things they don't
tell you when you're growing up?
Like, all that hustling. And all that
roostering that you do when you're
Young and middle-aged.
[SCOFFS]
It don't amount to nothing.
What make you say that, Mr. Reggie?
We have to make a living, hmm?
But the big job and the house
and the car and the
Ooh-look-what-I-got-now-it is
that everybody has.
When you get right down to it,
the only thing you want,
is somebody that you love.
Who'll rub your back when
you're having trouble sleeping or
Or hold your hand for your birthday.
That's all.
Don't tell me it's
your birthday, Mr. Reggie.
Come on, man! Happy birthday, og.
[CHUCKLES] thank you.
So, what, miss Zora Lee coming by later?
She was.
But now they've banned all
visitors for the next couple of weeks.
'Cause it looks like somebody visited the
other day and they've tested positive.
Look, I'm sorry to hear that.
Yeah. Me too.
[RALPH SIGHS] but you know what?
Shit, we could celebrate right here.
Look, I know I ain't no
replacement for miss Zora Lee,
but, look, I know how to throw
a party with the best, though.
- [REGGIE] I'm sure you do.
- [RALPH] hey, I'm serious.
I'm sure you do. [LAUGHS]
You know
I'MMA start calling you
"goodheart." [CHUCKLES]
[REGGIE] look at you.
Young brother, young man.
Looking after an old
man that you just met.
I guess there is
Hope in this world, after all.
Do you know about the first
time Davis and I had a fight?
No.
It was about three months
after you were born.
We broke up.
I put him out and I was a
single mom with you for a bit.
What happened?
[SIGHS] I just felt like
he wasn't pulling his weight.
You know, he was travelling to college
games
and practicing with the team.
I was just stuck in this tiny apartment.
Juggling my studies and you by myself.
I was alone more than he was with me.
Or there.
We had this bad, bad fight.
I put him out.
Figured
If I was gonna be alone,
I might as well be alone.
He just left?
I made it pretty impossible
for him to do much else.
He tried.
Everyday, he came to see you.
Everyday.
How long did that last?
Two semesters.
Wow!
How did y'all get back together?
I apologized.
From my heart.
Just like I am about to
apologize to you, right now.
I was wrong.
In every way in that exchange.
[CHARLEY] can you forgive me?
I just Don
Like, what made you say that?
- You really think that about me?
- Absolutely not.
I I just
I think I'm just I'm struggling
seeing my little boy as a man and I
Oh, mom.
Just trying to figure out how
to handle that and I
It's absolutely no excuse.
I'm so sorry, baby.
I am so sorry, Micah.
Nah, I get it.
I hear you. It's okay.
It's okay.
[R&B MUSIC PLAYING]
[CALVIN] hey, you.
Courtney go out for a run?
[NOVA] mmm-hmm.
- You wanna make some noise?
- [CHUCKLES]
- down, boy.
- Mmm-hmm.
We don't know when she'll be back.
Well, maybe we should have
thought about that before.
- We? Oh! We French now?
- We. Hmm.
- Yes.
- [LAUGHS]
thank you.
For giving her a chance.
She's lovely.
Spirited.
[CHUCKLES]
I'm looking forward
to getting to know her.
It was nice to see you two
getting along.
Especially after everything
that just happened recently.
Oh,
you mean your ex-wife's blatant racism?
Yes, that.
And you know how sorry I am about that.
Courtney's proof. The apple
can fall far from the tree.
It's not all about race
like it is for Hailey.
Feels good.
What?
I just wanna be sure you don't
think all this is going to be easy.
This quarantine together?
It's not gonna last forever.
No.
Everything. Us.
When we get out of here
