00:00The day Frances Lacey lost her job, she decided to leave town.
00:07Tomorrow morning, we're moving out of this toilet of a city.
00:09They told her there was no way.
00:11Later, this car's worth more dead than alive.
00:13We'll discover it.
00:14I don't wanna take you in, right?
00:16I'm not sentimental about it.
00:17But when it came to finding a home...
00:19Wow!
00:20Perfect for our house.
00:21Nope.
00:22I'll know it when I see it.
00:24No one would ever say no to Frances Lacey again.
00:30Do you know who owns that piece of property across the road from you?
00:33I'm the only one.
00:35I wanna buy it.
00:36How do you expect to pay for the land?
00:39We'll wash your dishes, do your laundry, clean your house once a week.
00:42Here's another guy in charity.
00:44Perhaps I could tell you about our program to help the needy.
00:47We Lacey's don't accept charity.
00:49Hey, Lacey, where'd you get the how-to-duty dresses?
00:52My mom made them.
00:53Where'd she get the material?
00:55Does somebody shoot a sofa and skin it?
00:57How about I take you down the crossroads after we close tonight?
01:01I got some old electrical conduit I'll throw into the bargain.
01:05How much conduit we talking about?
01:08Yay!
01:10The water's getting all gunky.
01:12Look who's in it.
01:14Who is he?
01:16Can you hold it?
01:17I don't know.
01:18The next thing we're working on is indoor plumbing.
01:23But you were late.
01:24Where were you?
01:25You lead my private life to me, Shane Patrick.
01:27What little I have of it.
01:30Marie!
01:31You care more about this stupid house idea than you do about any of us!
01:40No matter how hard you work...
01:41You got a job?
01:42Yeah.
01:43You earned a toilet?
01:44...or how much money you make.
01:46A house isn't a home...
01:47Hi.
01:48Hello.
01:49...unless the people inside are a family.
01:52Happy Thanksgiving, Mr. Moon.
01:54Happy Thanksgiving, Lacy's.
01:57Thank you for the Lacy family, which came into my life and turned it upside down.
02:05Academy Award winner Kathy Bates and Edward Furlong.
02:09A home of our own.
02:10My house is very clean.
02:14Amen.
