The Carters Family Reunion

- This is DJ Hype from WBVQ,

radio El Paso,

coming to you on this steaming hot July morning.

By now I hope you got the grill hot,

the potato Southern cool and your liquor lit.

Today's broadcast is brought to you

by J. Lee's spicy barbecue sauce.

Put some J. Lee's on them smoky bones,

why don't you?

But first, you better call your momma,

'cause when you taste that flavor,

now you're gonna slap her.

Happy 4th of July, everybody

Keep it spicy out there.

Don't you-

- So, are you gonna do those dance moves

at the family reunion?

Sydney!

Mom.

- I'm trying to talk to you little girl.

I almost had it.

- Answer my question before you almost get these belt.

Jeez. Okay.

No, I'm not planning to go dancing like this

at the family reunion.

I knew that you heard me.

Love you.

- No, no, no, no. You already busted. (giggles)

- Mommy, why do we always have the family reunion here?

Why can't we do it in Orlando

or some place fun?

- Well, honey, we create our own fun.

Right?

- Mom, I'm too old for those kinds of answers,

there has to be a real reason.

- Oh, okay, Miss lady, I see you.

Look, there is a real reason,

but once we get to the house,

I'll talk to you about it, okay?

Okay. Is my dad coming?

I mean, I invited him.

- You guys had an argument, didn't you?

- No, no, we didn't have an argument.

It's just adult relationships are sometimes complicated.

And your dad, he's a good man.

- But you guys started dating and everything.

- Sydney, remember I talked to you

about grown folks' business.

Your dad, he's just busy.

And right now he's in Texas on business

and I left him a voicemail.

Look, honey we both know that your dad loves you very much.

Right? So if he can make it, he will, okay?

Okay.

Hey Jeffrey see,

I just want to apologize for the other night.

Things have just been moving so fast

and I guess that, I've been hurt a few times

and I just don't wanna rush into anything.

Anyway, just come to the family reunion

and we'll figure things out. Okay?

See you soon.

Where's all the people

and the 4th of July decorations?

I honestly do not know.

Hey mom, where are you guys?

You're already supposed to be here.

Isn't dad bringing his famous barbecue ribs?

Sweetheart, we're not coming.

- What? You're joking (chuckling)

Hey sweetie.

- Hey dad, what is mom talking about?

- You remember when I surprised your mother

with that adventure trip, in a Brazilian rainforest?

He surprised himself.

You know I don't like camping and hiking

and all that kind of stuff.

I thought it would be fun

and to expand our horizon.

- Oh, you expanded them all right.

- Look, well you guys got back last week.

- We were supposed to be back last week

but we are still here stuck in Brazil.

What? Okay.

You guys are joking you're playing with me.

You got me.

- I'm afraid it's not a joke sweetheart.

Tell her the best part.

- Babe, we don't need to worry her.

Worry me about what?

Tell her.

We caught the Dengue fever.

Dengue fever?

Yes, dengue fever.

- It's a mosquito-borne tropical disease.

It gives you a fever,

yeah, I got that part.

- Fever, diarrhea, headache, pain in my neck,

my back, my-

- Babe. - What?

Or what?

- So you're not coming to the family reunion again?

- Not unless we can go back into a time machine

and never go on this trip.

- Oh, at least you two are together.

You wouldn't wanna have Dengue fever alone,

now would you?

I am, I guess you're right.

- Sometimes I hate how smart you are.

- Well, I'm gonna call you later. Okay?

I gotta try to figure out how to get some barbecue

to this family reunion.

I love you too.

Bye bye.

Hello, Aunt Mae? No way.

Yes it's today.

Okay, okay. I am on my way.

Where are we going, mommy?

To get your aunt and uncle.

Oh, you know what?

Before we go, there's something I wanna show you.

Okay?

So you remember you asked me why

we have our family reunions here every year?

Well, this is why.

You see, when your great-grandfather

was released from prison, for his wrongful conviction.

He ended up suing the government

and he won a lot of money.

So he started his own business with flipping homes

and this is the first home that he ever purchased.

And that's why it's so special to our family.

- Do you think he'd be proud of us?

- Yeah. I know that he's proud of us

and everything that we've accomplished.

You know, sometimes I stay here

and I know that he's watching over us.

- Hey, what's up brother? How you doing?

I got some DVDs and oil for sale. DVDs and oils.

Who says you can't. You can't...

I got some DVDs and oils for sale.

Oils, you know what I'm saying? These got pheromones in it.

Pheromones!

Meaning you could get on the ferry,

and she gone mourn, all night long.

Now look, now you have these DVDs

and you put these oils together,

you gonna have a great night.

She gonna be going

* All night long, all night

* All night, all night long

* All night, all night.

What you want player?

I don't know, what you got?

- Just let me know, hands is magic.

It's like that?

- It's exactly like that (chuckling)

Somebody please tell this man.

- Oh in that case, let me get number one.

Man, get out my chair.

* We're together, one love in the house *

* The house is out

* One love, forever

* One love

OG (indistinct),

What's up with that meal for another day man?

- Just another satisfied customer.

Obviously, but come on OG.

She asked for you by name.

Now keep it real, partner. What's up, talk to me?

Well, she came in

she was like,

"OG, I know you're a barber,

"I get paid on the 15th.

"Hook a sister up."

So did you hook her up?

- I told her just like I tell all the girls.

I don't work for charities.

I don't work for free.

And if you wanna use these skills,

you gotta pay me something.

And I told her she had three choices.

She can give me some cash.

Well?

She can give me some grass.

Now you're talking.

Or that ass.

- Well, hold on, hold on, hold on, wait.

OG, so you trying to tell me that you-

- She didn't have no grass either.

Oh.
