Jameson is watching the grill as he and Dom talk about the car and race wars. Letty, Hannah, Leon, and Vince pull in the driveway having went to pick up the groceries they needed. "I'm outta here," Vince says as he hands his bags to Leon, having seen Brian.
"Come on, dog," Leon tries to stop him.
"Yo, James," Letty says as she looks at Jameson.
"Vince, get over here and give us a hand," Jameson calls as Vince starts walking back to his car.
"Looks like you got all the help you need, brother," Vince says before getting into his car and driving off."Hannah!" Dom calls as he puts BBQ sauce on the chicken.
"Mia! The chicken's dry!" Jameson tells her trying to get her to hurry.
"All right. We're coming out already," Mia says as she brings out a bowl of rolls. She is followed by Hannah with a salad as she is followed by Jesse and Brian, who are carrying the beers.
"Beautiful," Jameson says as Mia hugs Dom and Jameson before they all go sit at the table with Dom and Jameson sitting at each end of the table. Jesse grabs a piece of chicken and puts it on his plate.
"Hey, hold up," Dom tells him with a stern look.
"Because you were the first to reach in to the chicken, you say grace," Jameson explains to him with a smile before crossing his hands.
"Dear heavenly..." Jesse starts but doesn't know how to continue.
"Spirit," Leon says helping him out.
"Spirit. Thank you," Jesse says. "Thank you for providing us with a direct port nitrous injection, four core intercoolers and ball-bearing turbos and titanium valve springs. Thank you."
"Amen," Hannah says as she and Leon clap.
"Not bad," Dom tells him with a smile.
"He was praying to the car gods, man," Letty says causing Jameson to smile before they start fixing their plates.
"Look who it is. 'Old Coyotes 'R' Us'," Leon says causing them to look up and see Vince walking up.
"I thought you weren't hungry, pumpkin," Hannah says with a smirk.
"You know, I gotta eat," Vince says with a shrug.
"He's always hungry," Letty says in agreement.
"All right, sit down," Jameson says before Vince walks over and kisses the back of Dom's head.
"How you doing, Mia?" Vince asks as he walks to his seat. Vince kisses Jameson's head before sitting across from Brian. Vince grabs Brian's beer before water falling some into his mouth. Brian takes a drink of his beer after Vince sets it back down.
"You coming from the hospital, Vince?" Jameson asks as everyone fixes their plates. Vince nods as he sets his beer down.
"Yeah," Vince says quietly.
"How's your mother doing?" Dom asks him with a slight frown.
"They're giving her shit for the pain," Vince answers her with a small smile.
"Let's make sure we put a plate of food together. Save something for her," Jameson says as he looks at Vince, causing Letty to smile at him. "Tell her we all said Hello."
"She'd appreciate that," Vince says with a small nod.
"Let's eat some grub, man," Letty says as she pats Vince on the back.
"So, what's on your mind speed racer?" Dom asks as he looks at Brian. "What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing," Brian says as he slightly shakes his head before grabbing his beer.
"You're in deep thought over there," Jameson says with a smile.
"I just think this is nice," Brian says as he looks around the table.
"What's nice?" Dom asks him confused.
"All this," Brian answers him as he motions around the table. "You know the picnic and the barbecue. It's like a family."
"What are you? An orphan?" Letty questions him with a raised eyebrow.
"No, it's just whenever I show up my dad always calls the cops," Brian jokes with her causing everyone to laugh.
"That's funny," Jameson says as he slaps the table before pointing at Brian. "No cops at the Toretto's house." Vince and Brian take a drink of their beers as they stare at each other. "Rule number one."
