Ringmaster (1998) - full transcript

Jerry Springer stars as more or less himself, the host of a raunchy, controversial and popular Los Angeles talk show which features everyday people with problems and who frequently vent their problems on the air. A new group of guests are flown in for one show who include white trailer trash from Sarasota FL; Connie, whose current husband has cheated on her with her nymphomaniac teenage daughter, Angel, for which Connie has gotten revenge by having sex with Angel's fiance; and from Detroit, black trash Starletta, whose boyfriend, Damone, has slept with all of her girlfriends. Soon the paths of all of these parties cross which leads to more sex, arguments, physical violence, and Jerry sweating out just another day.

Oh.

Sweet fucking Jesus !

What in the hell ?

I didn't hear you knock.

I was in the can.

- That is what this is for.

- You don't have to leave.

Whew.

[ Zipper Unzips ]

[ Panting, Sighing ]

[ TV ]

He-ee-re comes Sparky !

Spark !

[ Announcer ]

And they're off.

Down the backstretch--

Come on, number four !

That's four, two, three,

six, five and eight next.

All right, pass 'em !

Number seven

in the lead.

[ Ringing ]

Hello.

They're lookin' for

forklift operators

over there in Durbin.

Just bring it home.

I'll look at it.

I'm watchin' TV.

Hello ?

Come on, Spark !

Rusty ?

[ Dial Tone ]

[ Man ]

Hey, can I get something

to eat over here ?

Go. Yes.

[ TV Announcer ]

Three to the outside.

- Kansas Song moving up

on the inside.

- No !

- [ Man ] You always work

the top floor, right ?

- Yeah. How'd you know ?

My buddy told me

to get a room on this floor...

if I wanted to get

a "good morning" blow job.

- Who's your buddy ?

- Like you'd remember.

[ Man Chuckles ]

Asshole.

[ Man ]

Hey, Angel.

You gonna

let me in ?

[ TV Blaring ]

[ Door Slams Shut ]

I was thinking.

Maybe we should

go on and do it.

You're serious.

You're in the mood ?

No, not that !

Why don't we

just get married ?

Want to ?

Maybe.

All right.

[ Woman On TV ]

I wonder what

it would be like.

Circled three of these.

[ TV ]

What is there to miss ?

Hear what I'm saying ?

When it gets so bad,

what is there really

to miss ?

[ TV Continues

Indistinct ]

You at Willie's ?

Yeah.

- Brought home some chicken,

if you want any.

- All right.

[ TV Continues ]

So, you movin' in with Willie

or are you gonna find

your own place ?

I don't know !

God ! I just got off a

ten-hour workday. I don't feel

like talking about that now.

[ TV Continues

[ Toilet Flushes ]

[ TV Continues

I'm in no mood.

[ Raises Volume

[ Cheering ]

[ Chanting ]

Jerry ! Jerry !

All right.

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you

very much, everybody.

When I see Laverne

on that stage,

I'm gonna whip her ass.

Then I'm gonna tell the world

that your dick

is the size of a needle.

Do you hear me talkin' to ya ?

Do you hear me talkin' to ya ?

Thank you very much.

You are very nice.

Welcome to the show.

We have a wild one

for you today.

"I Got To Tell You,

I Am Pregnant with

Your Husband's Baby."

[ Audience ]

Oooh !

Let's meet Juanita

and her husband John.

Come on out.

[ Applause ]

I been wantin' to whip your ass

for a long time.

[ Audience Cheering ]

[ Juanita Yelling

Profanities ]

Let me tell you somethin'.

This is the size

of his dick, baby.

I'm not talkin' about my nail.

I'm talkin' about

the pinky part.

It feels like he's pokin' me

with a coffee stirrer.

Yeah, tiny dick boy !

That's what you are !

Needle-dick man !

- [ Chanting ]

Jerry ! Jerry ! Jerry !

- Bring it home !

I'll whip your ass.

[ Cheering ]

[ Jaunita ]

Come on ! Come on !

Although it's important for

a woman to have her sexual needs

met during a marriage,

calling your husband

needle-dick for 13 years...

probably isn't a good way

to express your frustration.

[ Announcer ] Are you having

an affair with your stepdaddy

or know someone who is ?

If so, please call...

1-800-555-3870.

That's 1-800-555-3870.

I'm gonna go to bed.

Good night, honey.

You gonna be lookin'

for an apartment tomorrow ?

This trailer

ain't big enough

for the three of us.

No, wait till

she goes to sleep.

She won't come out.

[ Indistinct Whispering ]

You did what

with my husband ?

You did

what

with my husband ?

What did you do with my--

[ Rusty Whispering ]

She's not gonna come out.

You did

what

with my husband...

in my own home ?

In my own home ?

In my own

home ?

I can't believe

I'm finding this out

on national TV.

I can't believe

I'm finding this out

on national TV.

I can't believe it.

I cannot believe...

I'm finding this out

on national TV.

You promised.

I didn't promise you--

Shit.

You think--

[ Giggling ]

No, wait till she--

Wait ! Get--

Howdy do, Jerry ?

I'm Connie.

It's a pleasure

to make your acquaintance.

[ Girl Giggling ]

Jerry,

how do you do ?

I'm Connie. It's a pleasure

to make your acquaintance.

You're such a good-lookin' man.

Baby, I need it.

You don't need--

[ Giggling ]

Oh, baby.

"Oh, baby" what ?

[ Whispering,

Angel Giggling ]

You're holdin' up

[ Giggling Continues ]

Yes, you are.

Just fine.

♪♪ [ Rock ]

More ! More !

Pump that shit,

baby !

Yeah, baby. Ooh !

All right.

Starletta.

[ Woman On Phone ]

You are calling in regards...

to "My Traitor Girlfriends,"

right ?

Okay.

So how do you know...

that your friend

is having sex with, uh, Demond ?

'Cause I'm standin'

in his living room while

he's gettin' sorry traitor ass.

Who you callin'

sorry traitor ass ?

I ain't even talking

to you, scurvy bitch !

It's the people from Jerry.

Damn ! What you doin'

here, Starletta ?

How'd you get my key ?

Uh-uh, Demond !

I'm the one to be askin' you

all the questions.

Who you callin'

a ho ?

Put your hands on me, bitch.

I guarantee you 9-1-1 won't get

here fast enough for your ass.

- Don't believe that shit.

- Don't be talkin' to her.

How you gonna let a piece

of gristle, a piece of meat,

come between us ?

When you was walkin' down

the street with a trail of blood

behind your ass,

I bought

your Kotex.

When your cheap-ass

Payless shoes broke--

Remember that ?

I took you to a reputable store

so you would have something nice

to wear on your feet.

But you don't remember that,

do you ?

So you went all natural

with your hair.

When your hair fell out

from that bad perm,

I'm the one who bought the wig.

Vonda, I knew

you was a snake,

but I never thought

you'd slip up

in my man's house.

This is my shit !

You that desperate

you gotta fuck every man

you see that ain't yours ?

Get the fuck out.

Get the fuck out !

I'm gonna let you live

this time.

Do this shit again,

they won't be able

to find your ass.

Ho.

Y'all know where

to reach me.

Right. Starletta,

I'll let you know

by the end of this week.

Thanks a lot.

Bye-bye.

Oh, God. Yes !

Dog.

Damn.

[ Jerry ] I'm still confused.

Lucille was a trans-gendered

preop hermaphrodite.

[ Man #2 ]

There was a time when

it would have confused you too.

[ Jerry ]

Those times are long gone.

It's good to get out of

the office and catch up.

[ Excited Chatter ]

No way !

It's Jerry Farrelly.

[ Waitress ]

Jerry !

Ooh, I waited for you.

Remember I told you about

my daughter, but I didn't

have my wallet ?

Yeah, yeah.

Ooh !

Wow !

She's got your teeth.

Is she attractive.

[ Man ] Hey, Jerry !

Jerry !

Hi.

How are you ?

How you doin' ?

Nice to meet you.

Nothing personal,

but your show sucks.

Nothing personal,

but your manners suck.

- I was not speaking

to you, Berenice.

- Lousy tipper !

Lousy tipper.

Sit over here

in the seat of honor.

Thanks.

Thanks very much.

You're welcome.

Mel--

We got Magic Burgers.

I'll buy you a burger

if you do it.

[ Jerry ]

Mel, you were saying something ?

It's not a big deal,

but what I want to do--

Jerry, look over here.

I can't believe

you just did that !

I'm sorry.

Yeah. Right.

I'd like to see this show

go in a direction--

How you doin', Jerry ?

Why, Fiona.

[ Crying ]

I need your opinion.

I booked a gig in Vegas...

except it's a year contract,

and my boyfriend

doesn't want me to go.

Excuse me, Fiona.

Jerry, I got a lot to say.

He thinks if I leave,

I'll meet somebody else.

Which is a possibility.

They want to send me to one

of those leper colonies.

Just a skin disease,

but what are you gonna do ?

Your glasses are dirty.

I love him,

but this is such

a great opportunity for me.

The choreographer's amazing,

and the money's really good.

I'm so confused.

I don't know what to do.

Mel, what were you

trying to say ?

Nah, nah. You think

I'm gonna tell you now ?

Forget it, Jerry.

Let's go.

[ Cheering ]

Clyde's not as uptight

as you are, Henry.

He lets me do what I want.

- [ Audience ] Oooh !

- He lets me have

a girlfriend too.

[ Audience ]

Oooh !

Shaneequa, come on out.

[ Cheering ]

In terms of my political future,

how do you think we did ?

I'd say

you lost Delaware.

[ Man ] Jerry,

huge fan of the show !

Thank you.

Are you ever going to do a show

on people who have crushes

on farm animals ?

Why don't you call

one of our producers ?

We have that 1-800 number.

Her name's Begonia,

and I tell you,

she's one hell of a goat.

[ Bleating ]

She's got

a hairless underside.

She's very pretty.

Jerry, could we get married

on the show ?

Jerry ! Jerry !

Jerry ! Jerry !

Whoo, whoo, whoo !

Jerry !

You gonna call

about those jobs today ?

Rusty, honey,

I'm gonna go

to the casino with Verna

tonight after work,

so I probably

won't be home till late,

like real late.

- Okay ?

- Yeah.

Baby.

Hear what she said ?

Mm-hmm. So we gonna do it

on the big bed tonight ?

Mm-hmm, yeah.

Mmm.

[ Giggling ]

Ah, baby.

Do that other thing.

What other thing ?

The thing

your mama won't do.

Damn.

Shit !

[ Sighs ]

Fuck it.

I need to cash

my paycheck. I.D.

I can't cash this.

The name on the check

doesn't match the name

on the driver's license.

Next please.

Excuse me.

Uh-uh.

It's our policy.

Next in line, please.

Back up, bitch !

I ain't done here yet.

Now, you listen to me.

It's some fucking computer error

the motel has not corrected

the 400 times I have asked them.

I have a 20-minute lunch break,

so fuck your policy.

Cash my paycheck.

I already told you,

I can't and won't cash

your paycheck.

You're gonna cash my paycheck,

or I'll kick your fat ass

to Jacksonville.

You understand me,

you goddamn bank freak ?

Ma'am.

Get your shit--

Get off of me,

you fuckin' rent-a-cop !

You wanna-be piece of shit !

Get off of me !

Fuck you !

Get off of me !

Kiss my fuckin' ass !

Fuckin' pigs.

Get off of me.

I'm gonna file

a lawsuit.

[ Siren Wailing ]

Uh, a woman named

Laqueeta Fontaine claims

you're the father of her child.

She's suing you

for 20 million.

Only 20 million ?

Let your attorney

handle it ?

Yeah.

[ Mel ] Got it.

You're married

to a fatty ?

[ Woman ] Damn Skippy.

And your sex life

is fantastic ?

I ain't never goin' back

to skinny.

Have fatties

always turned you on ?

I got the thing for Santa Claus.

Are you a fatty too ?

X-L, baby.

Okay, Letitia.

Thank you for calling.

Seven guests from the show

we did last April

claim to have...

"post-traumatic

anxiety disorder"

from being on your show.

They're going to sue

for 20 million too ?

No,

but they want to come back...

and talk about it

on your show.

I see.

With their therapist,

who's calling the disorder

"Jerry syndrome."

I'm a disorder ?

I made the big time.

[ Mel ]

Congratulations !

Looks like we've been fishing

in the shallow end

of the gene pool for too long.

[ Phone Ringing ]

$500 bail for what ?

Trying to make a livin',

and cash my paycheck.

Don't worry about it.

I took the money out of

your mother's savings account.

She won't see it

until she gets her statement.

Besides, I'm home

when the mail comes.

I'll get rid of it

before she sees it.

You always take

such good care of me.

Let's go home.

Want to ?

Yes.

Okay.

Baby, it's you and me,

and we got the big bed.

Do you mind

if I call you Jerry ?

No. That's fine.

Okay.

Uh, you datin' anybody ?

That's it. Good.

Excellent.

Since this is national

television, it's important

you listen to us...

and follow instructions

closely.

Number one rule:

There will be no weapons

whatsoever.

Why they got

This is very,

very important.

I gotta get

Where's she goin' ?

There you go.

Could you put my last name

on there so people know

you meant it to be for me ?

Okay.

What the hell

is she sayin' to him ?

- Actually, it's spelled

with two Z's.

- Angel !

I hope you're

not bothering Jerry.

He's a very busy man.

You're even more handsome

in person.

Thank you very much.

Here you go, Angel.

Thank you.

Could you sign

my T-shirt ?

Sure. Want me

to sign the back ?

No. There's a decal there.

You better sign up front.

Thank you so much.

Am I forgetting anything, Troy ?

It is important that you hear

what's going on.

I know.

I'm sorry.

[ Natalie ]

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Going back to Javier's question.

Can you be arrested for a crime

that you commit

on the

Jerry Show ?

The answer is "yes."

Just because it's happening

on television doesn't mean

it's not happening in real life.

Right ?

I gotta use

the bathroom.

I don't know what to do

about that woman.

He signed

my T-shirt.

-Would you go away ?

-What you doin' with my daughter

you ain't doin' with me ?

You her mother ?

People always say that.

Angel,

remember that cashier at Kroger

who swore you were the mother

and I was the daughter ?

I like to think of us

as the Judds without the talent.

All right, Mama.

Would you go back ?

Go the hell on ! Go !

Sorry, sorry,

sorry, sorry.

Hold up !

You see Demond out there ?

I don't know who he is.

Don't even play dumb.

I'm talkin' 'bout the brother

you was lookin' at all day.

Okay, everybody.

Take five.

I'm takin'

more than that.

Jerry, this is

Catherine Winicott,

channel 16 news.

How do you do ?

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

I'd like to talk

about your political past,

and I'd like

to get your thoughts

on this current phenomenon.

Great.

How does it feel to be one

of the most controversial people

in America ?

[ Starletta ]

Demond ? Where are you

and that bitch ?

- Cut. Let's do it again.

- Rolling.

How does it feel being one

of the most controversial--

[ Starletta Yelling ]

Cut.

Demond !

Demond, you in here ?

[ Starletta ]

Demond, where are you

and that skank ho ?

Demond ! Demond !

Let's finish where

we left off tonight.

Mm-hmm.

What's your

room number ?

227.

All right.

[ Starletta ] She looks

the same in her face as she do

in the crack of her ass.

Skank bitch !

Get the fuck out of the way,

you fat-ass motherfucker !

Hey, baby.

I was lookin' for you.

You been lookin'

for me ?

That's real funny, Demond.

How the fuck you been lookin'

for me...

when I been paradin'

up and down this hallway

callin' your name ?

Who the fuck are you calling

a skank bitch ?

Hold up.

What was you doin'

with her ?

Come on, baby,

just chill.

There's only one skank bitch

in this hallway, and I'm looking

right the fuck at her.

Oh, shit.

Fuck you.

[ Starletta ]

This your white man's trophy ?

That's what you want ?

This ain't no trophy.

It's a joke.

You gonna step outside the race,

at least let the bitch

be decent-lookin'.

Get the skankiest bitch you

can find. A broke, cracked-out

Madonna lookin' bitch.

[ Indistinct Arguing ]

[ Connie ]

It's not your fault

she can't please her man.

Don't be wastin' your time

with that trash.

You need to be kickin' his ass.

Don't have him come here

and embarrass you, girl.

We got a "I Slept with

My Stepdaddy" fighting with

"My Traitor Girlfriends."

I'll be right back.

Take care of yourself.

[ Arguing ]

Break it up.

Stop that. That's enough.

That is totally unacceptable.

All right ?

Just calm down.

Save it for the show, okay ?

Unacceptable.

[ Natalie ] Exactly what we

need. That's great, but let's

get back to the conference room.

Come on, guys, let's go.

I'll get your ass, bitch.

You gonna get it.

[ Natalie ]

I need you back in here.

Messin' up your hair

and all that. I ain't

tryin' to mess up my hair.

I'm gonna meet Jerry, and don't

wanna be lookin' all crazy.

Bitch.

So don't expect me

to be fightin' for you, girl.

Hmm.

Okay, guys.

Oh, and enough

of you.

Are those people okay ?

No, they're not okay.

They're guests on my show.

Gimme one of those.

You really

gonna marry Angel ?

I suppose.

You in love

with her ?

Sure.

Good luck.

You're gonna need it.

She's as crazy as her mother.

Probably even crazier.

- You want some advice

on how to keep her happy ?

- Okay.

Mm-hmm.

Angel likes that

a whole lot.

- But you probably

already know that by now.

- She likes ice cream cones ?

Ice cream cones ?

[ Giggles ]

Hey, Jerry.

Hey, Jerry.

Girl, get out.

Jerry and me are havin'

our own conversation.

I done Demond even though

I knew he was with

my good friend Starletta.

That don't make me bad.

Do it ?

Maybe just a--

Jerry, I got a tattoo

about my first love.

You wanna see it ?

Girl, get your wriggly

fat-jack ass

out of Jerry's face !

It look good, don't it ?

I'm not bad, am I ?

Not even a little ?

[ Elevator Bell Rings ]

There's my floor.

I'll see you guys

at the taping, okay ? Okay.

Bye, Jerry.

Bye.

What is your problem,

pulling down your drawers

in front of Jerry ?

He said he wanted to see

my true love.

Can't you show him a picture ?

Because it's all about

the whole thing.

You always showin' you ass.

Can't you keep

your clothes on ?

Always callin' me a slut.

Who's the slut ?

I ain't no slut.

I just showed my tattoo.

At least I keep my stuff

in the house.

It's in the house !

Not all in the elevator

and shit.

It look good.

My ass ! Look ass !

This ass !

Yeah, yeah.

Do it again.

Let's go out.

I can't watch your show.

I have to turn the channel

after a few seconds.

Why ?

I find it bleak

and depressing.

I'm sorry,

that's just how I feel.

Don't you find it

bleak and depressing ?

Sure I do.

You don't think

I'm some horrible elitist ?

I don't find you horrible.

Catherine, just about

every guest I've dealt with...

has been decent and kind

and poor.

I think you find poverty

bleak and depressing,

and our show reminds you

that it exists.

Thanks for coming by.

We appreciate it.

[ Explosion On TV ]

It ain't right.

It just ain't--

I ain't doin' it.

It don't matter.

They're gonna make you do it.

The hell they will.

Please don't go.

It ain't right goin' on TV

tellin' the whole world...

about parts of our lives

that people ain't got

no business knowin'.

You should have thought

about that before comin' here.

- You're doin' the show.

- No, I ain't.

- Don't do this to me, Rusty.

- I ain't doing nothin' to you !

You fuck my little girl

in my own home, and then

you pull a stunt like this ?

I got news for you. You walk

out of that show, you're

walking out of this marriage.

And our relationship.

You are two peas

in one fucked-up pod.

Yeah.

- Yep !

- Get the hell out of our lives.

Jerry don't want you

on his show anyway.

He don't want no fucked-up

redneck inbreds.

I'd kick you out myself

if it wouldn't mess up

my pedicure.

I ain't doin' it.

You're not ?

Hell no. I ain't gonna make

an ass out of myself on TV.

No way.

I'm going to the airport,

changing my ticket.

You coming ?

- Come here, Willie.

- Angel, I--

- Get your ass over here now.

- Don't you say nothin'

to Willie.

He's a man of his word.

Ain't that right ?

He ain't a pecker like you,

and back out

at the last minute.

You comin' or not ?

You don't want to do something

so hurtful.

Do you ? After all

I've done for you ?

No, ma'am.

You better go alone.

You sure ?

Yes, he's sure !

Get the hell out of our faces !

Good luck, on the show

and the marriage.

had sex

have never had sex.

- Never ?

- Never.

because she's pregnant

with her stepdaddy's baby.

gonna find out about it.

she thinks we can raise a baby,

and everyone will think

it's ours.

with Rusty's baby ?

like that. You're the one

that stole my diaphragm.

an affair with my fiance,

she borrowed my clothes

and my diaphragm.

Fuck you. This is my baby.

I'll take my baby

and go somewhere else.

You are not my daughter.

I'll take your damn husband,

bitch.

[ Angel ]

Fuck you.

[ Connie ]

You piece of white

fuckin' trash.

I'll be back with

a personal observation

after this word.

Crazy bitches.

[ Angel ] Well, you did it,

got me on TV.

Hope you're fuckin' happy.

[ Natalie ] Let me get you

a glass of water. Thanks.

[ Connie ]

I want

to say something.

And saying

something like this

doesn't come easy to me,

so I'm just gonna say it

up front.

All right ?

Okay.

I had no business

getting pregnant at 15.

But it happened,

and I dealt with it.

I never regretted it

for a minute,

not even a second.

You know that,

Angel baby.

I know it.

It's just that...

a parent ought to have

a world view,

a belief, a structure--

I don't know what the word is.

Just something to pass on

down to her kid.

I didn't have none of that

to pass on down to you.

All I'm trying to say...

is that a parent wants

to get better for a little girl.

Sometimes that just ain't

too easy.

I done some things

I don't understand.

I don't think anybody'd

understand it.

Sometimes I lay at night

in bed and I'm thinkin',

"Some of the things

you done to Angel ain't right."

And you know it !

I don't know why I did

some of the things I done,

but I am sorry.

Very truly deeply from

the bottom of my heart sorry.

I mean it.

I know it.

I promise

I'm going to do better.

I ain't gonna be crazy

like I've been.

Those days are over for me.

I'm sick of it.

I'm gonna be better.

You'll see.

I believe you.

Okay, I got you some water.

Can me and my daughter

have a moment alone ?

Just be a minute.

[ Door Closes ]

What you gonna do ?

I don't know.

Have it ?

I don't know.

Fact that it's Rusty's...

don't make it any easier.

I know it.

Not that I'm passing judgment,

'cause I'm in no position

to pass judgment.

Why don't we think on it

a little bit ?

Decide what's best.

We don't have

a whole lot of time.

Yeah, I know it.

But...

it'll come to us.

You'll see.

I feel better.

All things considered, Mama,

I think you done

a real good job raising me.

Thank you, sweetheart.

I tried

the best I could.

Let's get the guests

in their seats,

calm the audience down.

[ Director ]

Get ready for Jerry.

You know, it's hard

to know what to do

when you're angry.

You saw today people

who had difficulty

expressing that anger.

What we saw

was a pitiful bunch of sinners !

All of you

are the scum of the earth !

The worst America has to offer.

You're gonna go straight

to hell.

- You're pathetic, miserable

excuses for the human species.

- Have a seat. That's enough.

I'm not even sure

you're a part

of the human species.

You're no better

than a pack of wild animals.

Hell no !

Hey, just sit down.

You should be ashamed.

These people don't belong

on TV.

You keep ragging

on these people.

Let me tell you something.

The rich and famous

go on television

every single day.

They reveal intimate,

lurid details

of their private lives.

They tell us

who they sleep with,

what drugs they're on.

And we can't get enough

of it !

We just love that stuff !

Now, these people

come on.

They're not rich.

They're not powerful.

They're not famous.

They're talking about

the exact same issues.

They don't speak

the King's English.

They don't belong to your

fine, fancy neighborhoods

and country clubs.

- But you know what ?

- Tell him, Jerry.

They hurt just as much.

And what are they now,

the scum of the earth...

because they don't have

your money, your power

and your elitism ?

How dare

they go on television !

I got a program note

for you, buddy.

This is a slice

of American life.

And if you don't like it,

bite something else.

[ Audience Cheering ]

Jerry ! Jerry !

- Whoo !

- Jerry ! Jerry !

[ Audience Cheering, Chanting ]

Jerry ! Jerry ! Jerry !

You're so lucky.

Yo, word is bond, kid.

Little ladies, the show's

not until tomorrow, so take

tonight to think about it.

No. We done made up our minds.

We ain't doin' the show.

Hello.

Why not ?

'Cause...

they ain't no traitors.

Y'all my girls.

Girl, look at you !

Oh, man !

You give her a hug,

you ain't--

I'm serious.

I love my girls.

What about Demond ?

Fuck Demond, girl.

It's about us.

Fuck him.

[ Vonda ]

We going out tonight ?

Yeah !

[ All Chattering ]

Let's say good-bye

to Jerry.

You think ?

Oh, yeah.

Come on, let's go.

[ Mel ] You've always been

a populist, Jerry.

Some things don't change.

Remember when my mom and dad

came to visit us when we

first started doing the show ?

Yep.

They were very proud of you.

[ Jerry ] Why not ?

I had already been a mayor,

was a news anchor.

I was going to be

the next Walter Cronkite.

My name means something

a lot different now

than it did back then.

[ Natalie ]

Ah, Jer, you always land

on your feet.

He's in there.

All of a sudden I'm nervous.

You're going in there.

I'm not doing it.

You said you were.

I know, I know.

I'll do it.

Jerry, I'm sorry

to interrupt.

My daughter and me

were wonderin' if you'd pose

in a picture with us ?

Ah... sure.

Oh, thanks !

We'll only be a minute.

We did bring the camera

from the hotel, didn't we ?

I think so.

What bag did you put it in ?

I thought in this one.

It's not in mine.

Oh, here it is.

- Why don't I take it ?

- Oh, thank you, sugar.

All you have to do

is press that button.

You don't got to focus it

or none of that.

All right.

Why don't you guys

get together ?

Okay, we'll stand here.

[ Mel ]

Say "Velveeta."

One, two, three.

I think I might've blinked.

Could you take another one ?

Sure.

[ Mel ]

Cheesecake. Great.

- There you go.

- Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Sure, absolutely.

[ Mel ]

Bye, ladies.

Have a good trip back.

Oy vay,

huh ?

What a business.

Have a nice day.

All right.

You're still bein' a dog !

Wait, you can take his off.

Ain't you the lonely one ?

[ Laughs ]

Come on, the coast is clear.

We've got time for one drink.

Look !

[ Jerry On TV ]

Let me see

if I have this right.

You say that you

have sex with men while

you're dressed like a woman.

These guys have no idea

that you're really a man ?

[ Woman In Audience ]

No way !

I don't mean any disrespect,

but I find it hard to believe...

that somebody could

be having sex with you and

not realize you're really a guy.

I had sex with one

of your staff members.

Why don't you ask him ?

Oh, my God !

Staff member ?

[ Charlie ]

Yeah, Troy Davenport.

I knew it !

I called it, didn't I, Mama ?

He's gay.

[ Connie ]

You did.

He met me as Claire,

and we had sex.

He's a member of our staff.

Let's bring him out.

Troy !

Come on, buddy.

They need you in there.

Give me a break.

[ Audience Applauding ]

[ Both Squealing ]

Troy, is that true ?

[ Laughing ]

Oh, my God !

E.R.,

my ass !

[ Both Laughing ]

[ Chanting ]

Jerry ! Jerry ! Jerry !

Oh, my God.

Till next time,

take care of yourself...

and each other.

You too, Jerry.

Isn't he a sweet man ?

Just as sweet as can be.

And good looking too.

Yes, he is.

Can we have two Jack Daniel's

on the rocks, please ?

Maybe I shouldn't drink

now that I'm pregnant.

Hell, I drank

when I was pregnant with you.

You turned out all right.

I've been thinkin'.

I don't think you should

marry Willie. You and the baby

should stay with me.

I was thinkin'

the same thing.

The baby belongs

with its mama and its grandma.

Oh, Lord.

I'm gonna be a grandma.

Mmm-mmm-mmm.

Hmm ?

We better get going.

It's getting close.

You know what ?

What ?

This is the first

family vacation we ever had.

We never got to do that.

All and all,

I think we done pretty good.

I agree.

All right.

Well, let's go, Angel baby.

We got a plane to catch.

[ Angel ]

I can't believe how small

that studio was.

It looks so much bigger

on TV.

Willie, let's go !

You got all that ?

There's one on the side

of the couch.

I'm ready to go home.

How about you ? You bet.

Them burgers

from that little

Clown Burger place !

They were very good.

Excellent.

♪ Oh, yeah

Cool ♪

Lord have mercy.

[ Angel ]

Jesus Christ has come

to the trailer park.

He's got

really big feet.

Hey, y'all my neighbors ?

Why, yes.

Hi.

My name's Angel.

I'm Connie.

Hi, Connie.

How are you ?

Very good.

I just moved in a minute ago.

Rented number two.

Did you really ?

We just came back

from a trip ourselves.

We were renting number three.

So we are neighbors !

We certainly are.

You want to help us

with the bags ?

I'd love to.

Aren't you sweet ?

You two pretty ladies.
