Video Transcript

- This is where I've been staying.

- Well, you look better, T.

- Thank you. Think you. The food here is terrible.

- But they're treating you right. Right?

- Yes, Patty. No need to beat me with it.

- Jillian's been taking my dance classes. She's really good. She really has natural talent.

- Is that right?

- Jillian?

- Sorry. Yeah.

- Look at me when I'm talking to you. Jillian? No go getting disrespectful just cause I'm not home. As soon as I get home, things are going to go back to the way that they were. And this little blip will be over before you know it.

- Blip? No. No, see, this is exactly why I didn't want to come here. OK, Mom? This wasn't just a blip. I had to give you mouth to mouth. You pop pill, after pill, after pill, and I see you.

- Stop that.

- Goddamn it, Tyra, what is your problem?

- I'm sorry.

- She didn't deserve that. She doesn't deserve any of this. She wants to be mad. You've earned the right to be mad, OK? Don't take it out on her.

- I didn't mean to. I'm sorry, Jillian.

- Don't touch me. I want to go home.
