Filthy Rich

(glass shattering, flames bursting)

Rot in hell.

Lord, direct my footsteps according to your word

and let no sin rule over me.

Thank you for protecting my family.

You've kept us free from tragedy and illness

and you have given us abundance of wealth.

Everything.

As long as I have breath in my body

and your spirit in my heart.

I am your servant and your faithful soldier.

Amen!

-(chuckles) -Oh!

Now, let's just see. Oh, yeah.

-Oh! -Look in my eyes.

Let me see you.

Well, every superhero needs a cape, Mama.

Oh, Rose, you hush up. You hear your daughter?

Push in, camera one. Take camera one.

All right.

Y'all are listening today.

Hold steady, camera one. Hold steady.

Can you hear me in Hong Kong? From Norway to LA?

Can you hear me in Australia? The San Francisco Bay.

The Lord is calling on you now. He's waiting on the line.

Are you ready?

Are you ready? Are you ready?

'Cause we're running out of time.

Everything we rehearsed will be on the teleprompter.

-Okay. -Eric, stick to the line.

Go get 'em, baby.

I'll see you out there.

-Eric, honey? Come on, son.

Look how far we've come.

25 years. All things are possible in Him.

-In you. -In us.

Oh, Lord.

Oh, it's nice of the Reverend to try and upstage me

on my own network on today of all days.

He'd be nothing without you.

Rose, I think we should get the wings.

Be that higher love,

and stick around for an extra special 25th anniversary.

Yeah, that's right!

Go on. Show Margaret your love.

And may God bless you now.

And go.

Live from Sunshine Studios in beautiful New Orleans.

Ladies and gentlemen, Margaret Monreaux!

Wow! Hello!

Can you believe that?

Unbelievable.

Hello!

Oh, stop that! No!

I did that! Look what they made me do!

Love you!

Thank you for those warm, welcoming words.

There is something that I need to say to all of you.

You and the Lord give me the strength to do what I do,

so thank you.

Now this mama bear has been starving herself for a month

to squeeze into those silly wings.

Ladies, I think it's time we all had some fried chicken.

Ah, there you go!

Cock on the walk!

That cock better not mess on my carpet.

Bite that apple, baby. Yeah, bite it good.

Sorry, Kansas City Beef. Your card was declined.

What? Can you--can you run it again?

-Ginger. -Yeah.

You better go check on your mom.

She's watching that TV show again.

Thank you to all my mama bears

for 25 years of support.

She has the perfect pageant wave.

When we come back,

I have an exciting announcement--

I was watching that. What are you doing?

-You have to stop. -No.

-You're obsessed. -No.

You have a problem.

You know, many in this country say

that people with our morals

are out of touch or even stupid.

Many of our sponsors wish that they didn't need your business.

The time has come

to start shopping in God's light,

so four months from today,

you'll be able to purchase everything from books,

clothing, and groceries online from us.

And we can assure you that every employee,

associate, and vendor...

Mm-hmm.

Will share your Christian values.

Did you know that some online retailers

offer pornography for their subscribers?

-(crowd murmuring) Yeah.

Yeah, so next to the bleach in your cart,

you got Drunk Teen Girls and Boys Gone Wild.

They even sell a product called Butt Butter.

For every item that you place in your Praise Cart,

20% of it will go back to our faith.

To charities and organizations on the front lines

of God's great commission.

My friends, I give you Sunny Club.

Sunny Club, Sunny Club.

Sunny Club, Sunny Club.

-What's the early word? -Valuation's off the charts.

-Oh! -(laughs)

You got a real winner with this, Eugene.

I swear that camera loves his face even more than I do.

I'm sorry, Mama.

I know that wasn't the planned speech.

-No. -But I--

Subtlety is the footbridge to integrity.

Amen.

True integrity means you're the same in public

as you are in private.

-Mm. -You attract bees with honey,

not Butt Butter.

Walk with me, Eric.

I rue the day that Eric married that man's sister.

They are family now. We have to treat him as such.

And I do.

Oh, there's my girl!

Why didn't you tell the audience

I designed your outfit?

Confidence is silent, honey.

Insecurities, well, they're loud.

Coming from the woman with sparks shooting out her ass?

Baby, that's not insecurity. That's show biz.

Mama will give you credit on air Monday morning.

-Thank you, Daddy. -Mm-hmm.

Don't encourage her.

She wants Sunny Club to carry that clothing line of hers.

I know, it's her dream, Margaret,

and I don't know why we can't just set her up.

It isn't wise to give children things

-just 'cause they ask for it. -Mm-hmm.

Oh, honey, I'm sorry. I'm gonna have to go.

I'm hopping the jet for D.C. tonight.

-Now? -Yeah.

I was hoping that you and I

would have some time together tonight.

Just as soon as I get back.

Mm.

Ah!

Well, plenty more where that came from,

because I am one rich son of a bitch.

Lord have mercy on this sinner.

(indistinct radio chatter, women screaming)

Death takes the body,

God takes the soul,

and faith lets us know that we will meet again.

He was so loved.

Memorial services held today

for conservative icon Eugene Monreaux.

This comes after weeks of searches

in the Louisiana marsh failed to recover his body.

And right now the nation mourns the loss

of the man admired for both his faith

and his principles.
