Yeah.
Young, Young, Young, it's Young Dylan!
Young, Young...
Uh-oh.
Who's there? Who's there?
Relax, Chuckles, it's just me!
Oh. That was a close one.
I was about to start swinging with my eyes closed.
Did I wake anyone else up?
No, I'm the only one up.
Just baked 200 peach pies, so I'm wired.
What are you... Ooh...
When Rebecca sees you re-did her float,
you gon' get it.
What, you don't like it?
I didn't say that.
Man, she'll be fine with me sneaking back out here,
once she sees how fly this all looks.
I don't know, she seemed pretty passionate
about the Power Five.
Chuckles, let's keep it real. This is way better.
When I perform my Power Four bars,
the crowd will go nuts, and my fans will be relieved
to see that I'm still that guy.
Yeah, that all sounds good. But just in case you're wrong,
after Rebecca buries you, can I convert your studio
into a planetarium?
Get out.
Get off. Get off my float.
Right now.
[music]
Well, I'll be!
They made all these pies without me?
Have mercy!
They stuck they foot in this pie!
Hey, hey mama!
What are you doing here?
I thought you weren't coming 'til later.
Well, that was the plan,
but when I couldn't find my recipe book,
I realized I left it over here. I was gonna come earlier,
But I see you guys made good use of it.
Yeah, we did.
It was a piece of cake. Or shall I say, piece of pie?
Yep yep.
We stayed up all night long, baking our lives away.
Well, you did an outstanding job.
I just want to thank you for taking the initiative
to get it done.
Hey, come on, now! You know your son.
I just wanted to get the ball rolling, you know?
Actually, it was my idea to get a jumpstart on the pies,
we wanted to take the burden off your arthritic hands, Viola.
Oh! Yeah.
That's sweet of you, Yasmine.
Hey, Grandma! Did you taste one of the pies yet?
Charlie, why don't you go upstairs and...
I did!
And I have to admit, it tastes better than when I did it.
That's because I added...
'Cause you probably got some homework to do!
Let my grandbaby talk.
Hey, Charlie. Now, you added what, baby?
A hint of O.J., and a dash of maple syrup to the mix.
To help bring out the peach.
Wait, so you made all these pies?
Yes, ma'am.
Wait, was that supposed to be confidential?
Not anymore.
I can't believe you two used Charlie to
make all these pies!
Okay, mama. In our defense,
you know, we tried and failed.
This recipe book is the devil.
It's so hard to follow!
I thought it was simple to follow.
You know, since Charlie did all the work,
he's gonna be the face of the pie booth.
Here. Here's some money
for having misguided,
"let me just take advantage of my baby boy" parents.
It's not your fault, baby.
[Rebecca]: I can't believe you would go behind my back!
[Dylan]: And I can't believe you think your idea is going
to help your career! Oh, wait... You don't have one.
[both shouting angrily]
[Viola]: Oh.
I got this.
Why do you always have to do this?!
[both shouting angrily]
Hold on.
Why are you out here arguing like an old, bitter,
divorced couple?
Grandma, Dylan snuck behind my back and destroyed
-my float for the parade. -You did what?
I didn't destroy it, I gave it an upgrade.
Rebecca thinks her idea is gonna attract the media.
And you think performing on the float is gonna
-make your song go viral! -Okay, enough!
Come on over here and sit down, you two.
Hey! I said sit down!
Sounds to me like you both are doing this
for all the wrong reasons.
Do you even know what Juneteenth is all about?
No.
When the Civil War ended, all slaves were supposed
to be free, but some states didn't follow the rules.
So on June nineteenth, General Gordon Granger
went to Texas and issued an official decree
that all slaves were to be freed.
We call that day Juneteenth, 'cause it is a time
to celebrate as a unified community,
and honor the day that slaves were truly set free.
I think the two of you need to re-think your agendas.
'Cause Juneteenth isn't about you as individuals;
it's about us as a community,
finally getting this important day acknowledged as a holiday.
You're disappointing me.
-I'm sorry. -My bad.
Grandma is right, we did lose sight
of what the true meaning of Juneteenth is all about.
Yeah, and it definitely has nothing to do with hip-hop.
Or me as the fifth powerful Black woman.
It's just so hard to believe that we went from being
kings and queens, to slaves.
Now we constantly have to fight.
You're a genius, Dylan!
Wait, I am?
Hold up, you didn't know that?
Wait, Rebecca, what did I say?
We should change our theme to African royalty,
because you're right, that's where we came from.
Hear me out, we can drape the bottom
with a silk purple fabric,
and build a beautiful gold crown and throne...
Oh, and we could put framed photos of past
Black queens and kings in the front.
And you can perform right in the middle.
What? No, I thought...
I'm not talking about the song you just created
a couple days ago. You should write something new.
Something that actually goes with our new theme.
Hmm...
Black Royalty. That's gonna be the title.
But I'll only write it, if you perform it with me.
Let's get started after school.
Sounds like a plan!
[both]: This is sick!
We did it, cuz!
We did, didn't we?
And who cares about the press? We're honoring our history.
And making our ancestors proud.
That's all that matters.
Now let's get started on this song, Black Royalty.
We might have a banger on our hands.
Speaking of royalty.
We're gonna make a lot of money off of this song...
Sorry.
It's hard to turn it off sometimes.
