The Quote

Quote from Lillian in The Club

Adult Dean: Teaching us kids about male/female relationships wasn't something that was on grown folks' agenda in the '60s. Kids were to be seen and not heard. Especially at the "Blue Light Special" parties my parents had been throwing since they were all "on the yard" together at Tuskegee A&M.
[flashback:]
Bill: Hey, Bruce! I'm empty!
Adult Dean: My brother, Bruce, being the oldest, was given certain tasks.
Lillian: [to Kim] Unh-unh. What do you think you're doing?
Young Kim: I just want to see what's going on.
Lillian: Girl, stop being fast and get back to your room.
Young Kim: But Bruce...
Lillian: But nothing. If you don't get back in that house right now...
Young Kim: Ugh. [exits]
Vivian: Ooh, now that girl thinks she grown, huh? [door slams]
Lillian: Mm-hmm. She gets it from her grandmama.
Vivian: Ah. And not her mama? [both chuckle]
