This exciting melodrama/comedy written and directed by Tanya Thomas Taylor is the conclusion to part 1 of Absent from the Body?.  The question mark in each piece of her work introduces a moral to the story when the question mark is presented.  
 Keith “MrPrezident” Lewis stars as Alphonzo, who struggles with the circumstances that surround his brother’s demise.  In an effort to rejuvenate himself, he takes on the character of his brother Terrance, who was a smooth talking, egotistical, womanizer.  Ladonia, Terrance’s mother whose starring role moved the audience to tears in part 1 is played by Najah Nova.  She too is torn to pieces by the untimely death of Terrance and is trying to come to grips with what time has placed in her hands.  Dr. Luke “Love” Sanders played by Paul “Lumberjack” Taylor keeps the audience in stitches with his comedic acting style, as he promotes the spiritual side of the purpose and plans God has for this family.
