00:17:35,137 --> 00:17:36,472
I'll be around.
340
00:17:36,972 --> 00:17:38,139
I love you.
341
00:17:38,140 --> 00:17:41,017
Mm-hmm, that's right. He told me...
342
00:17:41,018 --> 00:17:43,729
- [indistinct chattering]
- [light jazz music playing]
343
00:17:48,484 --> 00:17:51,652
- [woman chuckling]
- God. So much fun. I had such a great--
344
00:17:51,653 --> 00:17:54,572
- Hey, Mom.
- Oh, there he is.
345
00:17:54,573 --> 00:17:57,825
Uh, Justin, this was my professor,
346
00:17:57,826 --> 00:18:00,579
now Dean Schwartz
of your school, Weinberg.
347
00:18:01,538 --> 00:18:04,207
- Hi, Dean Schwartz. Nice meeting you.
- [Dean Schwartz chuckles]
348
00:18:04,208 --> 00:18:07,835
It's nice meeting you, Justin.
You ready to be a Wildcat?
349
00:18:07,836 --> 00:18:11,672
I'm my mom's son, so... [chuckles]
...I feel like I came out of the womb ready.
350
00:18:11,673 --> 00:18:14,801
- [women laugh]
- I had him swaddled in the school colors.
351
00:18:14,802 --> 00:18:16,345
[all chuckle]
352
00:18:17,012 --> 00:18:19,347
I hear you're trying
to walk on the basketball team.
353
00:18:19,348 --> 00:18:21,432
Yeah, I... I am. I'm kind of excited--
354
00:18:21,433 --> 00:18:23,518
I hear Coach Collins needs his three.
355
00:18:23,519 --> 00:18:27,939
[Dean Schwartz] Oh, we want another taste
of March Madness. [laughing]
356
00:18:27,940 --> 00:18:29,315
What are you gonna study?
357
00:18:29,316 --> 00:18:31,567
- [Dawn] You know, he's undecided.
- Well, I--
358
00:18:31,568 --> 00:18:33,277
But I think once he gets to campus,
359
00:18:33,278 --> 00:18:35,446
he's gonna find something
he's passionate about.
360
00:18:35,447 --> 00:18:38,783
It's good to take your time,
get your bearings before you decide.
361
00:18:38,784 --> 00:18:40,993
[Dawn] The real adjustment
is gonna be the weather.
362
00:18:40,994 --> 00:18:44,038
[Dean Schwartz] Oh, yeah.
We are known for our long winters.
363
00:18:44,039 --> 00:18:45,081
[women laughing]
364
00:18:45,082 --> 00:18:48,459
[Dawn] I mean, if there is one thing
I don't miss about Chicago.
365
00:18:48,460 --> 00:18:51,170
[Dean Schwartz]
Yeah, all these LA kids raised...
366
00:18:51,171 --> 00:18:54,049
[dialog fades into melancholy music]
367
00:19:06,353 --> 00:19:07,229
- Hi.
- Hi.
368
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:17,406
Where is everyone?
369
00:19:18,782 --> 00:19:19,908
Empty house.
370
00:19:21,869 --> 00:19:22,911
Can you believe it?
371
00:19:25,205 --> 00:19:26,331
Being in that room...
372
00:19:28,041 --> 00:19:32,713
I dunno, it made me feel like
I was back at JTD or Camden Hall again.
373
00:19:34,882 --> 00:19:37,301
I mean,
I know it's-- it's just four years...
374
00:19:39,887 --> 00:19:44,599
but I can't go to another PWI
my mother picked for me.
375
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:45,516
[sighs]
376
00:19:45,517 --> 00:19:48,811
The struggling through classes,
the wondering what's wrong with me
377
00:19:48,812 --> 00:19:52,691
and why I'm just not excited to be there.
378
00:19:53,275 --> 00:19:55,485
I think what you're trying to say is that
379
00:19:56,361 --> 00:19:59,280
you're just tired
of being in the same loop.
380
00:19:59,281 --> 00:20:02,867
No, but, I mean,
it's not just school, though.
381
00:20:02,868 --> 00:20:06,747
I mean, when I said
that I wanted to follow you to Howard,
382
00:20:07,789 --> 00:20:09,917
it was me just clinging to you again
383
00:20:10,709 --> 00:20:13,212
because I-- I don't know
what the fuck I want.
384
00:20:14,463 --> 00:20:15,839
You know, outside of you.
385
00:20:17,633 --> 00:20:18,634
I wanted to talk.
386
00:20:20,093 --> 00:20:24,056
[exhales sharply] Because I just wondered
what it would've been like if I just
387
00:20:24,556 --> 00:20:26,808
responded differently last night.
388
00:20:28,936 --> 00:20:31,355
I wanna tell you, "Yeah, go to Howard."
389
00:20:32,814 --> 00:20:33,899
But if I'm honest...
390
00:20:36,652 --> 00:20:40,572
that just doesn't seem like
something you really want.
391
00:20:42,532 --> 00:20:44,409
I don't think you want it either.
392
00:20:47,913 --> 00:20:49,039
I don't think I do.
393
00:20:50,999 --> 00:20:52,751
I mean, it's-- it's okay, Keisha.
394
00:20:53,877 --> 00:20:57,798
I mean, it's okay for you to want
Howard to yourself. You deserve that.
395
00:20:58,423 --> 00:21:02,511
I mean, you-- you deserve Howard
exactly how you dream.
396
00:21:04,596 --> 00:21:06,598
- [gentle music playing]
- [exhales]
397
00:21:13,063 --> 00:21:14,690
[Justin] Look, maybe me and you,
398
00:21:15,941 --> 00:21:17,901
we're stuck in, like, a loop too.
399
00:21:20,696 --> 00:21:23,615
I mean, in the year and a half
we've been together...
400
00:21:24,491 --> 00:21:28,619
I mean,
it's been this fucking roller coaster.
401
00:21:28,620 --> 00:21:32,791
I mean, we block each other,
we try to let each other go, we come back.
402
00:21:34,042 --> 00:21:36,169
You're talking like it was all bad.
403
00:21:39,339 --> 00:21:40,924
It's not what I'm saying.
404
00:21:43,719 --> 00:21:47,139
Look, because of you,
I finally know what it feels like
405
00:21:48,056 --> 00:21:49,558
to really want something.
406
00:21:50,392 --> 00:21:52,436
Okay, but it-- it can't just be you.
407
00:21:58,025 --> 00:22:00,277
Why does it sound like we're breaking up?
408
00:22:09,244 --> 00:22:10,120
[Justin exhales]
409
00:22:11,288 --> 00:22:12,372
[inhales deeply]
410
00:22:13,582 --> 00:22:14,416
I mean, maybe...
411
00:22:16,376 --> 00:22:18,754
we weren't meant to be together forever.
412
00:22:20,380 --> 00:22:24,551
You know, maybe we were meant to be
the people who we remember forever.
413
00:22:29,097 --> 00:22:30,557
Why are you doing this now?
414
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,185
Because if we don't...
415
00:22:35,437 --> 00:22:38,357
I will continue
to keep making you my whole world.
416
00:22:40,692 --> 00:22:41,526
[Keisha scoffs]
417
00:22:43,111 --> 00:22:47,324
You're a mess if you think that
we have to break up for you to level up.
418
00:22:49,659 --> 00:22:51,495
It's so that we could level up.
419
00:22:56,041 --> 00:22:58,877
I have a lot of things
that I need to figure out.
420
00:23:00,253 --> 00:23:03,090
And I don't have a lotta time. Okay?
421
00:23:03,924 --> 00:23:05,883
And I-- I don't wanna weigh you down.
422
00:23:05,884 --> 00:23:08,261
[Keisha chuckles ruefully, sniffles]
423
00:23:16,812 --> 00:23:17,646
I should go.

- Thank you, son.

Could this day get any better?
511

You ready to eat?
512
00:29:23,261 --> 00:29:26,806
I actually have something
I wanna talk to you guys about.
513
00:29:27,348 --> 00:29:29,309
Should I leave? [laughs]
514
00:29:31,478 --> 00:29:33,688
- [Dawn chuckles]
- What's, uh, what's up?
515
00:29:34,272 --> 00:29:35,273
You in trouble?
516
00:29:36,524 --> 00:29:39,194
Did you guys pay for the tuition yet?
517
00:29:42,947 --> 00:29:44,657
- Oh, boy.
- Whoa.
518
00:29:45,408 --> 00:29:47,743
Jaden, it's okay for you to go eat
in your room, okay?
519
00:29:47,744 --> 00:29:48,787
Okay.
520

- [Justin sighs]
521

Look. I don't wanna go to Northwestern.
522
00:30:04,010 --> 00:30:06,262
Okay, but I-- I will. I mean, I'll do it.
523
00:30:06,888 --> 00:30:09,932
But I just want you to know that
when I go, it'll be for you guys, okay?
524
00:30:09,933 --> 00:30:11,100
And not for me.
525
00:30:12,060 --> 00:30:14,229
All I wanna do
is make you guys proud, but...
526
00:30:14,938 --> 00:30:16,689
I don't wanna go to Northwestern.
527
00:30:18,942 --> 00:30:19,776
Okay, well...
528
00:30:21,820 --> 00:30:24,197
If it's not Northwestern,
then what's your plan?
529
00:30:25,698 --> 00:30:27,074

530
00:30:27,075 --> 00:30:28,993
They have that at Northwestern.
531
00:30:29,577 --> 00:30:32,454
You work hard, make that your goal,
you can transfer in.
532
00:30:32,455 --> 00:30:33,705
- No, that's not it.
- That's--
533
00:30:33,706 --> 00:30:37,251
I don't want you to think I don't
appreciate all you've done for me, okay?
534
00:30:37,252 --> 00:30:38,545
'Cause I-- I do, but...
535
00:30:39,963 --> 00:30:42,506
I don't think you understand
how fucking hard it was for me
536
00:30:42,507 --> 00:30:43,715
to go through those schools.
537
00:30:43,716 --> 00:30:44,801
Watch your mouth.
538
00:30:45,301 --> 00:30:47,135
I think I'm built for something else.
539
00:30:47,136 --> 00:30:50,347
I mean, other than Keisha,
music is the happiest I've ever been,
540
00:30:50,348 --> 00:30:51,724
and I need you guys to hear that.
541
00:30:54,602 --> 00:30:56,938
Okay? 'Cause, I mean, that's who I am.
542
00:30:59,274 --> 00:31:00,108
So...
543
00:31:02,569 --> 00:31:03,945
you wanna make beats?
544
00:31:04,654 --> 00:31:07,031
Yes, yeah. I-- I wanna be a producer.
545
00:31:08,032 --> 00:31:10,284
And I want to defer Northwestern this year
546
00:31:10,285 --> 00:31:12,911
and take some time to make
my portfolio great so I can have...
547

548
00:31:13,830 --> 00:31:16,331
...a better chance of submitting
to better programs in 2020.
549
00:31:16,332 --> 00:31:18,042
Look, I-- I know this is a lot,
550
00:31:19,002 --> 00:31:21,921
but I'm finally figuring out
who I am and who I wanna be.
551
00:31:23,590 --> 00:31:25,216
I'm sorry if it's too late, but...
552
00:31:25,925 --> 00:31:28,261
I hope I don't lose
your love and your respect.
553
00:31:28,761 --> 00:31:30,555

anything after your good news.

That's life, son.
557

- We love you!
- [Keisha] Okay.

Look, reflecting back, I am not
570
00:32:58,518 --> 00:33:02,772
at all the person that I was when
I first got to St. Maria's my junior year.
571
00:33:03,773 --> 00:33:06,567
I just saw this place
as a means to an end.
572
00:33:07,568 --> 00:33:09,737
[chuckles] I came here
to be the fastest runner,
573

574
00:33:13,908 --> 00:33:15,368

- [Keisha] But...
578
00:33:19,831 --> 00:33:22,874
At least the salutatorian still
gets to give a speech, so... [clears throat]
579
00:33:22,875 --> 00:33:23,792

580

[all cheering]
581
00:33:26,087 --> 00:33:28,755
Back then,
I wasn't really looking to invest
582
00:33:28,756 --> 00:33:32,301
in anyone or anything
before I got to college.
583
00:33:32,844 --> 00:33:37,222
I saw college as the starting line
for the real race.
584
00:33:37,223 --> 00:33:40,768
And everything before it,
just another heat to get there.
585
00:33:41,477 --> 00:33:45,272
I was running towards something
that I thought was bigger
586
00:33:45,273 --> 00:33:47,442
and better than my now.
587
00:33:48,234 --> 00:33:50,737
And I thought I could do it all by myself.
588
00:33:52,196 --> 00:33:53,781
But it turns out, I was very,
589
00:33:54,615 --> 00:33:55,783
very lost.
590
00:33:56,576 --> 00:34:01,080
And it took a whole village of support
to help me find my way back to myself.
591
00:34:01,581 --> 00:34:03,332
And to get me here on this stage.
592
00:34:04,459 --> 00:34:08,629
So trust me, if you only have
one person in your life
593
00:34:09,130 --> 00:34:11,174
who'll always remind you of who you are,
594
00:34:11,924 --> 00:34:12,883
you gonna be all right.

that I am worthy of love and grace.

[chuckles]
598
00:34:23,436 --> 00:34:26,814
Not just some perfect ideal of me,
but the real me.
599
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,357
The me that gets lost,
600
00:34:29,358 --> 00:34:30,984
that makes mistakes,
601
00:34:30,985 --> 00:34:32,319
that feels undeserving.
602
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,781
[Eric] Proud of you, boy! Proud of you!
603
00:34:35,364 --> 00:34:39,035
She is worthy of it.
And guess what? So are you.
604
00:34:40,036 --> 00:34:44,040
So, thank you to the people
around us who helped us get here.

[Dawn] I can't believe it!
606
00:34:47,335 --> 00:34:49,377
[Keisha] The people
who pushed us to be better,
607
00:34:49,378 --> 00:34:51,756
allowed us to be courageous,
608
00:34:52,965 --> 00:34:55,760
and challenged us
to face ourselves with honesty
609
00:34:56,344 --> 00:34:59,055
and forgiven us
for any missteps along the way.
610
00:35:00,014 --> 00:35:03,266
This achievement today,
and all the ones to follow,
611
00:35:03,267 --> 00:35:05,520
are made possible by people who love us
612
00:35:06,104 --> 00:35:08,064
and who help us carry our dreams.
613
00:35:09,398 --> 00:35:13,945

00:39:12,641 --> 00:39:14,852
So it's... I'm just doing it to hang out.
683
00:39:16,937 --> 00:39:18,689
So when do you go to Chicago?
684
00:39:19,315 --> 00:39:20,274
Oh, I'm not going.
685
00:39:21,192 --> 00:39:23,110
- You told them?
- I did.
686
00:39:23,944 --> 00:39:25,321
You told them, and you survived?
687
00:39:26,155 --> 00:39:27,531
I did, yes.
688
00:39:28,032 --> 00:39:30,368
[warm music playing]
689
00:39:31,035 --> 00:39:33,162
I'm actually, um, working at CVS.
690
00:39:33,662 --> 00:39:34,788
Your mama kick you out?
691
00:39:34,789 --> 00:39:37,332
What? No, no, no,
I'm actually taking this, uh,
692
00:39:37,333 --> 00:39:41,711
music production and engineering course
that'll get me certified in a year.
693
00:39:41,712 --> 00:39:44,964
CVS, I'm just using it
to pay for it myself.
694
00:39:44,965 --> 00:39:47,509
Yeah, but technically
I'm taking a gap year,
695
00:39:47,510 --> 00:39:50,721
so I have about a year
to get my shit together.
696
00:39:51,847 --> 00:39:54,350
Or I may be actually
going to Northwestern.
697
00:39:56,143 --> 00:39:58,854
Yeah, or my mom may kill me.
Whichever one comes first.
698
00:40:02,942 --> 00:40:03,818
You-- you did it.
699
00:40:04,944 --> 00:40:06,779
I'm proud of you, Justin. Like...
700
00:40:07,530 --> 00:40:08,364
for real.
701
00:40:10,950 --> 00:40:12,034
[cell phone vibrates]
702
00:40:16,497 --> 00:40:18,581

00:40:18,582 --> 00:40:19,500
Yeah, right.
704
00:40:20,334 --> 00:40:21,168
Mm-hmm.
705
00:40:22,086 --> 00:40:23,796
Hey, but, uh, good luck at Howard.
706
00:40:24,380 --> 00:40:26,298
Thanks. Good luck with everything.
707
00:40:27,007 --> 00:40:28,342
- See you around?
- See you.
708
00:40:29,093 --> 00:40:29,969
Okay, see ya.
709
00:40:37,393 --> 00:40:38,394
Hey, Keisha?
710
00:40:39,728 --> 00:40:41,439
Uh, can I get you dinner tonight?
711
00:40:42,731 --> 00:40:45,734
I just wanna properly say
goodbye to you before you leave.

- [Keisha] Thank you.
717
00:41:14,763 --> 00:41:15,598
I'll go.
718
00:41:16,932 --> 00:41:17,892
Okay, be honest.
719
00:41:18,767 --> 00:41:19,643
[Keisha chuckles]
720
00:41:20,186 --> 00:41:22,897
- Did you know you were gonna see me today?
- No.
721
00:41:24,023 --> 00:41:25,024
Okay.
722
00:41:25,649 --> 00:41:28,235
Well, did you hope
that you were gonna see me today?
723
00:41:29,528 --> 00:41:30,904
Maybe. [giggles]
724
00:41:30,905 --> 00:41:33,616
[Justin] Maybe? [laughs]
725
00:41:35,201 --> 00:41:36,994
Man, every day I walked in there,
726
00:41:38,370 --> 00:41:40,498
I checked to see if you were around.
727
00:41:44,627 --> 00:41:45,711
Oh, I...
728
00:41:46,670 --> 00:41:48,672
got you a belated graduation gift.
729
00:41:50,925 --> 00:41:53,010
It's nothing big, but you should open it.
730
00:41:56,305 --> 00:41:58,306
[Keisha laughs]
731
00:41:58,307 --> 00:42:01,060
Oh my gosh! The HUF bag?
732
00:42:01,685 --> 00:42:03,938
- You kept it?
- Yeah. It's yours.
733
00:42:04,563 --> 00:42:07,023
I mean, yeah. Honestly, I don't know,
734
00:42:07,024 --> 00:42:10,985
I've been doing a lot of chores lately,
so it was in the back of my closet.
735
00:42:10,986 --> 00:42:15,573
[laughs] But, yeah, I still,
you know, hope it's good for track.
736
00:42:15,574 --> 00:42:16,492
Thank you.
737
00:42:18,369 --> 00:42:20,663
Now I feel bad that
I didn't get you anything.
738
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,125
I mean, you already gave me a gift.
739
00:42:26,669 --> 00:42:28,295
What you talking 'bout?
740
00:42:29,547 --> 00:42:30,464
Keisha...
741
00:42:31,757 --> 00:42:33,259
I mean, if it weren't for you...
742
00:42:35,636 --> 00:42:38,347
I'd still be locked in a life
that wasn't mine.
743
00:42:41,850 --> 00:42:43,519
I think you're putting a lot on it.
744
00:42:44,687 --> 00:42:47,021
Okay, remember that-- that...
[laughs] ...that day
745
00:42:47,022 --> 00:42:50,401
that I hijacked my, uh, driver's ed car?
746
00:42:50,985 --> 00:42:52,653
- [laughs]
- [Justin] To come see you?
747
00:42:54,780 --> 00:42:56,781
Yeah, well, I got in a lot of trouble,
748
00:42:56,782 --> 00:43:01,203
but my mom made me
do my homework on her old computer.
749
00:43:03,372 --> 00:43:04,498
And that's where...
750
00:43:06,125 --> 00:43:07,751
I found all my old songs.
751
00:43:10,963 --> 00:43:12,965
Little Justin always knew it was music.
752
00:43:14,300 --> 00:43:17,885
And guess what? I sold a song with Rodney.
753
00:43:17,886 --> 00:43:19,430
- What?
- Yeah.
754
00:43:20,889 --> 00:43:22,515
Congratulations.
755
00:43:22,516 --> 00:43:25,852
Thank you. Thanks. It feels good.
