[orchestral music plays]
I am looking forward to being the next lieutenant governor of our great state, Mississippi!
[cheers]
[music crescendos]
I hate this politics shit.
Mama, have you been smoking weed?
I chew it.
That's the best way to do it.
[upbeat music plays]
Here's the governor now.
You must be Ms. Dunkerson.
I'm ready for duty, sir.
And who are these lovely folks?
This is my family.
You move into the lieutenant governor's mansion.
[laughing]
The floors are beautiful.
We can't see the floors 'cause of this rug.
[screams]
[musical sting]
And who is that?
Head of security. He could be your new man.
And she do need a man.
She need a man.
He's a candidate.
She is right here. With her children.
[hip-hop music plays]
Gentlemen. That is chief of staff.
Doesn't lieutenant governor get to choose her staff?
In most cases, yes.
Why not this case?
Huh…
I'm going to need some dinner and a lot of wine.
[music continues]
[Dunkerson] I'd like to be more involved.
You mean well, but politics doesn't.
[smacks lips] Is that racist? Because I saw her do it, so I thought I could do it.
I was doing it because my hair itched, bitch. [smacks lips]
[music stops]
Girl.
Girl.
["Higher" plays]
[Dunkerson] I can make a difference.
You just be a good girl, all right?
I don't think he thinks I'm qualified.
Girl, do you know where you are? Have you looked at the power that you have here?
["Higher" continues]
That bad bitch gonna show up?
Pump my shoulders.
[woman] Uhhuh. When you want something, and you've earned something, you fight for it.
[musical sting] It is my heart's desire to do what is best for those who are overlooked.
[music swells]
[cheers] Kids, do you know who this is?
Mary J. Blige.
[gasps] I didn't know we was about to be attacked by all of Nick Cannon's kids at once.
