For Life

You know what I mean, little man?

You gotta share Mommy's time now.

What's up, Sherwin? Hi, Andy.

Hi, Tank.

How's the baby?

Man, she's beautiful.

All she does is cry.

Yeah, well, that's what babies do. They cry.

You're a big brother, so it's your job to protect her.

Marcel.

Son, look I need you to help me out, okay?

Go easy on Mommy.

Okay, I'll be good, Daddy.

My man.

Hey, baby.

Please tell me they have it.

Boom. Say my name, woman.

You weren't too hard on him, were you?

No, no, he's fine. I'll see you in a few?

I love you.

Love you back.

Don't tell Mommy I let you have that.

His name is Andy Josiah.

Husband to Elaine, father to Marcel and Lailah.

Can I watch elephants?

Yeah, you already know the code. Andy's just like you and me.

You are too funny, man. I'm telling you.

Now, Mommy's gonna be there.

She got the popcorn and the movie ready, so

I left Tank!

Nah, it's okay.

I'll just turn around.

He wants more for his kids.

Do you think he's still there?

Ain't nobody messin' with Tank.

Tank's the man.

No one would have ever known about Andy.

He would've just kept on living his life,

and I would've never found him,

but I did.

Hey, Ronnie, that Covid-pod idea you had was genius.

We did it at the office.

I think I'll keep him.

You know, I wish Marie could be here.

Yeah. How are things going at the hospital?

Infection rate's still up.

She's been working eight weeks straight.

You been able to open back up yet?

Sporting-goods store isn't essential business, so... no.

Yeah, but it's been good having more time with you, though.

Yes, yes.

Well, getting to see my grandson

is not the only reason for this brunch.

We want to have AJ baptized.

The church will allow a small gathering.

Um.

We're not really religious.

Like, at all.

Well, we're not zealots,

but we do believe in our Lord and Savior.

And our pastor baptized Ronnie.

Look, he's great. You'd like him, Mr. Wallace.

I'm sure.

We need to talk to Marie about this.

Of course.

It's important for the family to be a unit on this.

We're not even religious.

I know. That's what we said.

AJ's their grandson, too.

So you're on their side.

Hey, you picked the boy.

He's getting so big.

He's treating me like an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Speaking of, feeding time.

No sad face.

Hey, my mom's a superhero.

I have to share her with the world.

Love you.

16 hours a day, 8 weeks straight?

You gotta be exhausted.

Yeah, I don't even know how I'm standing right now.

I don't like this.

What?

Having a window between us again.

How's Ms. Noreen?

We took her off the ventilator.

Well, that's good.Yeah.

She's something else.

Married three times,

and I think she has her eye on the patient two doors down.

You keep doing what you're doing for your patients.

And when you're done

I'm here.

So, the house will be split between you and your sister?

Yes, 50/50 is how he wanted it.

Alright, the file that we juste-mailed you has three things...

Has a will, a medical power of attorney,

and an end of life directive. Okay.

You're gonna need to go over all those with your dad.

The will's gonna need witnesses.

The other two are gonna need to be notarized.

I don't even know if they'll let me see him.

You can do most of it on Face Time, just like this.

And then bring the papers to the hospital.

And payment?

I don't have much, but...

Everything's being covered by a grant

from the Spencer Richardson Family Foundation.

Bless you both.

These are tough times for everyone.

Just gotta hang in there.

Having all this is a big relief.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Talk soon.

Hard as this is, I keep telling myself

we're doing a lot of good.

We are.

Ready for the next one?

You bet.

Hey, Jazz.

Jazz?

Hey, what's wrong?

He won't get off his neck.

Alright, come on.

Just kept begging.

He just... He just wanted to be let up.

Why wouldn't they let him up?

I know.

He was crying for his mother.

He just kept crying.

I don't...

Yeah, I know.

I know.

Alright.

I need your pressure to come up, Ms. Noreen.

This Covid is getting on my nerves.

Me and you both.

Listen, please,

if you need anything, press the button.

I don't need you falling again.

You look tired.

Still not sleeping?

I'll sleep when you're out of the woods.

Honey, I have lived through malaria, smallpox.

I lived through it all.

Turn that off.

People walking around all horrified, like this is new.

His knee was the noose, honey.

Just got a new way to kill us now.

You sound like Aaron.

How y'all doing?

We were doing the work before all this.

You know, I-I-I'm a little cautious.

You know, it's been a long road.

But I love him, and I know he loves me.

Y'all gonna make it.

Thank you.

Hello?

Just calling to check in on you.

This isn't the time to miss your curfew.

Yeah, trust me, I know.

My daughter and her boyfriend are out there.

They can't sit still.

Lexi's at a protest downtown.

You know what I hate more than anything?

Feeling helpless.

Me and you finally got something in common.

Now's the time to be a troublemaker.

Just don't know what to do, though.

Hey, let's both think on it.

My daughter's coming.

Take care of yourself, Aaron.

Yeah, you too, Spencer.

You guys are back kinda late.

I'm sorry, Aaron.

We didn't mean for you to be watching AJ this long.

Thanks, Dad.

I'm gonna take a shower.

Y'all been going out all day every day, and you have a child.

I know. I tried talking to her.

She won't listen.

Jazz?

Listen, I'm concerned about you.

Me? Why?

Well, AJ's an infant.

There's things about this virus still unknown.

You out there. Some people not wearing masks.

Dad, we're being as safe as we can.

And what about your schoolwork and your son?

I'm doing this formy son.

I mean, a man has been lynched.

I'm out here so this doesn't happen to him.

You aren't angry after everything that happened to you?

Yeah, of course, I'm angry.

Not angry enough.

Yes, the will is notarized.

Sending it over now, Mr. Baker.

Yeah, you, too.
