[Tapping]

It's for me, I'll get it.

Hey, you know, roc, you know
the refrigerator's broken, man.

Yeah, I know, Joey,
second time this month.

Listen, uh, roc, I
don't mean to butt in

but isn't it about
time you gettin' rid

of some junk around here, man?

I mean, when
something's not working

you should just get rid of it.

Although I bet
we could fix that.

- Just what wiz is gonna do.
- Good.

Look, Joey, if you can find
time in your busy schedule

can you call wiz and tell him

he can pick up that
rebuilt compressor

and then bring him the $50.

- Sure, roc.
- Think you can do that for me?

Yeah, if I ever wanna
have a beer around here.

- Well, here.
- Uh, roc, why don't I..

Kick in the $50 for
the new compressor?

Well, that's a
nice thought, Joey

but where'd you
get the 50 bucks?

- Don't ask.
- Why not?

No, that's the name
of the horse that I won

on the fifth race
yesterday. Don't ask.

You gambling again, Joey?

Well, where's the
rest of my money?

Don't ask.

- Hey, pop. Where you goin'?
- Hey.

Oh, I'm going
down to the hospital.

My arm got twisted.

How'd that happen?

Well, actually, Eleanor did it.

She suggested I volunteer.

Oh, that's nice, pop.

Oh, daddy, you gonna
have a great time.

Besides it's gonna be a
very rewarding experience.

Oh, Eleanor, I don't
think it's gonna work out.

I don't wanna go
down to the hospital

and sit around with a bunch
of people playing dominoes

'and checkers, and
shootin' the breeze.'

I can do that right here.

Guess they wanted somebody
with experience, huh, pop?

Daddy, you can't back out now.

Besides, they already
printed up your badge.

- I get a badge?
- Mm-hmm.

Oh!

- Well, let's go.
- Alright.

Bye, sis.

[Joey] 'Behave yourself, pop.'

alright, he-he.

[Humming]

[Man on radio] 'The results
of the eighth race are..'

'vix vengeance
380, 260 and 140.'

'shasha's absence came in
second at 1220 and 640 and Kelly..'

hey, roc.

How was work?

Don't you mean,
what iswork, Joey?

Ouch.

All I want is a nice cold beer.

Wiz did fix that
refrigerator, didn't he?

Uh, well, you
could say that, roc.

- But that wouldn't be true.
- Joey..

I wanna walk in that kitchen

open that refrigerator
and get a nice cold beer.

I want you to be
able to also, roc

but out of a brand
new refrigerator.

- Oh, y-you forgot, didn't you?
- No, roc, I didn't forget.

I just figured why fix that
old thing when we could

put $50 towards a brand new one?

Roc, roc, I didn't put any
money on just any horse now.

You gambled the
money you were gonna

get the refrigerator fixed with?

Oh, shoot! I get a
little ahead of myself.

- Joey!
- Uh, roc, roc, listen.

It's a sure thing, see. I
went to call wiz, right?

And by mistake, I
called my bookie, right?

Turns out in the ninth race

there's this horse
named nice 'n' icy.

'Get the connection, roc?
Refrigerator, nice 'n' icy.'

- it's a sure thing.
- No.

You get the connection,
I'm gonna whip your ass!

Listen, it's a sure thing.

Joey, you've got a
gambling problem.

- And it's ruining your life.
- I know. I know.

Now, you-you're not
gonna get out this hole

until you admit that
you've got a problem.

Now this is the last
time i'm gonna say it.

As long as you're
livin' in this house

I don't wanna hear another
word about gambling

horse racin' playin' the numbers
or nothin', do you understand?

No more gamblin', you
got it? You hear me?

[Man on radio]
'Nice 'n' icy is making'

'his way through the..'

- do you hear? That's...
- Joey, I don't care.

Forget about it! This has
gotta stop. You understand?

- This has gotta stop!
- '...Now leading the pack.'

'as the head,
it's nice 'n' icy.'

'they're heading.. And
nice 'n' icy is the winner!'

[cheering]

- How much money we make?
- Oh, let's see.

That's a 40:1 shot.
Oh! That's $2,000!

[Indistinct chatter]

- Oh, uh, Joey.
- Yeah.

Yeah, your-your
brother he mentioned

something about
fixing the refrigerator

but he never got back to me.

Uh, wiz, my man, your
services are no longer needed.

See, we decided, uh..

Oh, my god. I don't believe it.

- He's buying new?
- Mm-hmm.

What is the world coming to?

Attention, everyone!

Ah, wiz, wiz, wiz, wiz.

Now, you don't have to broadcast
it to the whole world, alright.

Oh, forget it, everyone.

- Hey!
- Hey! Hey.

Joey!

[Laughing] Alright,
enough small talk.

Uh, I think you got
something for me, right?

Yeah, but, uh, right now
I kinda got a problem.

Uh, Mickey, ain't no
problem, I just want my money.

Oh, yeah, look here, Joey, uh..

I took on a little
extra action today

and, uh, some of
the other players hit

that same long shot
you did and, uh..

Make a long story short,
I'm having a little trouble

covering your bet.

- What?
- Now you know..

I'm gonna take
care of you, right?

Hey, I got a lot of nice suits.

Mickey, I know
your taste in clothes.

I'd rather have my money.

See, that's what I'm
trying to tell you, bro.

I ain't got it.

But, uh, you know, I
wanna do something for you.

So, uh, you know,
how about some, uh..

How about some steaks?

I don't have much of an
appetite right now, Micky

but, uh, I-I-I do want my money.

Oh, okay, cool, cool. Alright.

For you, I got something
even more valuable.

But, daddy, you gonna
have to stop this now.

Well, you told me to
cheer up the patients

and have them socialize.

That doesn't mean
organizing a splash party

in the aqua therapy pool.

Well, maybe I was
a little overzealous

in my duties as a hospital head.

But they got their exercise.

And I think Mr. Taylor
made a love connection.

But, daddy, you're going
against hospital regulation.

Oh, come on, now, Eleanor,
pop was just trying to do his best.

Now, maybe he was getting
a little overly enthusiastic

but I'm sure pop cares
about these people.

- Don't you, pop?
- Well, of course.

And I wanted to see miss
Wilkins in a bathing suit.

Just the cutest little
asthmatic you've ever seen.

Daddy.

Hey, everybody.

Hey, Joey, you
have our winnings?

What winnings, roc?

Oh, Joey, kicked in $50

to get the refrigerator
fixed but instead

he bet on a 40:1
shot and it won.

[Roc chuckling]

Roc, you know how
I feel about gambling.

I sure do, baby and believe
me, I straighten him out on it too.

Good.

But you getting a
brand new refrigerator.

Ooh, I hope you weren't
too hard on the boy.

Uh, yeah, look here,
um, about those winnings..

Uh, Mickey, uh, my
usually reliable bookmaker

he couldn't cover that bet.

Was that legal, Joey?

Roc, gambling is not legal.

So, does that means we're
not getting out new refrigerator?

Uh, uh, uh, well, yeah.

B-B-But see, Mickey
came up with somethin'

that's kinda like the
money, but it's not.

What?

Five guys that sing.

Uh, this is Robert.
Uh, that's Ron.

That's Jamie, this is
Ivan, and this is George.

Ooh, Joey, what
the hell is this?

Roc, these are the fly guys.

See Mickey managed 'em, right?

He get the contract from
somebody who couldn't pay

the debt, right? So he
gave us the contract.

'Cause he couldn't pay me.
So now... We're their managers.

Oh, Joey, this is sleazy,
takin' kids for collateral.

Roc, this is the music business.

Hey, this ain't Quincy Jones.

- Yeah, man.
- Okay, alright, alright.

Alright, alright, alright. Okay.

I'm embellished
a little bit, alright.

Roc, I listened to 'em
on the way over here..

- And they're not bad.
- Well, sorry, kids.

- I ain't interested.
- Who cares!

He ain't Quincy Jones.

Alright, alright,
alright, alright.. Okay.

Okay, uh, Quincy'll be
here in a few minutes.

Uh, look.. Sit.. Roc,
uh, sit down, please.

Come on, fellas, front and
center. Front and center.

Check this out, roc.
Check this out. Alright?

Alright, alright.. Hey, fellas!

Do the number for them
that you did for me, okay?

Roc, check this out.

- Okay, yeah, yeah.

- I get the idea.
- Roc, they're so adorable.

- And they good, too.
- Oh, yeah, yeah, they are.

But look, no offense, kids,
but I'm still no interested.

You know? What do I know
about the music business?

I'm-I'm just a garbage man.

- A what?
- 'Uh, uh..'

right, you can't look
at this in the short term.

Now you gotta look
at this long term.

Yeah, kinda like
you living here, Joey?

Uh, that's not a
fair comparison.

You're right, Joey, these kids
will be working before you do.

I never doubted that.

Look at this, roc.

"New kids on the block made

a hundred million
dollars last year."

Mm, roc, you know,
kids groups are

the hottest thing going today.

Yeah, that's very
tempting, Joey, but um..

I don't wanna just make
money off these kids.

Hey, come on, we wanna
make money too, pal.

Yeah, roc, it's not
just for the money.

I mean, think about these kids.

Yeah, you gotta
think about us too.

Yeah, I mean, if
we don't help 'em out

some sleazebag
manager'll latch on to 'em.

Look, Joey, I don't know
nothing about the music business.

Oh, come on, roc, you used to
be in a singing group, remember?

Oh, yeah, I was a kid, you know.

But we never
amounted to anything.

Roc, that's because
you didn't have anybody

that cared managing you, right?

- You care.
- Yeah, I care. But that does...

That and besides, you
guys have potential now.

You always tellin'
me, I don't try

now I really wanna
try this time, okay?

Come on, roc, you can
help these kids, man.

We can help these
guys out of ghetto.

Who lives in a ghetto?

Work with me,
fellas. Work with me.

Oh, I guess, I could you know

I could help 'em
out a little, you know.

Hey, maybe I could
you know, I-I could

I could teach you some moves.

Uh, uh, yeah, roc,
you could. But, uh..

Um, I thought maybe I call
a friend of mine in New York.

What is he, a plumber?

No, he happens to be a
professional choreographer

and he used to work with
some of the top groups.

And he'd probably do it cheap.
See, roc, that's when you...

[stammers] Joey,
wait, wait. Hold it.

No offense, kids, but I ain't
kicking in any more money.

Roc, roc, if we're
gonna do this right

we're gonna need a
little bit more money.

Joey, if we're
gonna do it at all

we're gonna do it my way.

Okay, guys, when I
was in my singing group

we got all the girls
with these moves.

That's called the
ooh-ah-ooh moves, okay?

First you go.. Ooh!

Ah! Then, ooh! Okay?

- Got it.
- Okay, come on, let's go.

Let's try it. Come on, guys.

Alright.

- Hey, what's going on, roc?
- Hey, we're rehearsing.

Hey, Joey, good news.
We got out first gig.

- Yeah, good news for who?
- The public.

Tomorrow night the fly guys make

their official Baltimore debut.

[Stammers] Okay, let's

Okay, ready?

[Singing in unison]
Ooh! Ah! Ooh!

Okay, that's good. That's good.

So, uh... That's the old
ooh-ah-ooh move, huh?

Mm-hmm. Mmm.

to give new talent a chance.

[cheering]

Great! You guys were great!

So what happened to our routine?

Look, I'm sorry, roc,
it wasn't what we do.

Besides, we were slammin'.

[In unison] Yeah!

Yeah, well, how do you know
my stuff wouldn't have worked?

Trust me.

Well, can you
believe those kids?

I spent all day tryin'
to work out a routine.

I book 'em a date and
the first thing they do

is get up there and
ignore everything I told 'em.

- Pretty smart, huh?
- Yeah..

- What?
- I ain't say nothin'.

- How's the chili?
- It's great, pop.

- Actually, it was a little hot.
- Oh, sorry about that.

Daddy, what on earth
is going on in here?

I whipped up some
chili for my friends here.

After eatin' all that
bland hospital food

I figured they could use
a home cooked meal.

Mrs. Wilkins, Mr. Carver

now what are you
doing out of the hospital?

Field trip, Eleanor.

Something they've all
needed for a long time.

Now pop, I don't think
you should do this.

Roc, I don't think you'd
say that if you tried his chili.

Oh, really? Let me try some.

- Go ahead.
- Daddy!

I want you to take
everybody back to the hospital

and back to their rooms now.

Come on, everybody.

We-we gotta be going.

[Joey] Hey, uh, it was
nice meeting you all.

Yes, sweetheart.

- Dad.
- Bye. Take care of yourself.

I wanna talk to
you for a minute.

I'll be right out, folks.

Now, daddy, you had no
business bringing those people here.

Well... my methods may
seem a little unorthodox at first

but I'm telling you, Eleanor

I got some other ideas and
they're gonna revolutionize

patient care as we know it.

No, daddy, i-i.. Look.

I think this was a big mistake.

And, uh, I'm gonna ask
you to turn in your badge.

Oh, no, Eleanor.
Look, I wanna...

No, daddy!

I've got to nip this in the bud.

Thanks. You were right, son.

Well... that reverse
psychology works every time.

[Doorbell rings]

Uh, save me some, baby.

- Hey.
- Hey, guys!

- Hi, Mr. Emerson.
- How you doing? How you doin'?

- We came to apologize.
- Oh, what for?

I should be
apologizing to you guys.

See, I told ya.

No, for not doing that
routine you wanted us to do.

Oh! You guys did
what you do best.

You know, my stuff
wouldn't have worked.

Come on, Mr. Emerson.
Don't give up.

We like you, we wanna
make this happen.

- Yeah.
- Oh, guys.

I don't know anything
about the music business.

- See, I told you that too.
- Shh.

Hey, hey, uh, guys,
what's going on?

Mr. Emerson quit on us.

We gotta cut these kids loose.

Look, roc, I still
think we can make

something special
out of these kids.

- Now let me call my friend...
- Look, Joey.

You're dreaming
like you always do.

Come on, roc, you heard
these guys, man, they're great.

Look, Joey, it was a corner bar.

They'd have screamed
like that for anybody.

I mean, it's not the big time.

It's not like, you
know the Apollo.

Roc, listen, we
got something here.

I think we can make
something special out of them.

[Doorbell rings]

Wait a second,
roc. Wait a second.

- What? Oh, hey.
- Hey, Joey.

Man, come on in, come
on, you know everybody.

- Hey.
- What's up?

Let me talk to you for a
minute. I got some good news.

Good news? Hey,
hey, fellas, you wanna

go into the kitchen and
grab something cold to drink?

- Case of beer?
- Shut up.

So, Mickey, what's on your mind?

I feel really bad for not
bein' able to pay you on time.

Yeah, so do I, Mick.

And, of course, uh.
I don't wanna ruin

my good standin'
in the community.

- So, uh, I got your money.
- Alright.

Uh, uh, wait, uh, Mickey, can
you excuse us for just a minute?

Roc, let me talk to
you for a second. Uh..

Look, roc, I don't
think you understand.

By takin' that money,
you've given up the group.

Yeah, Joey, and
the kids are better off.

- Roc, that's crazy.
- Look, Joey, we got our money.

Yeah, roc, but it's some change
compared to what we can make.

Now all we gotta do,
is take those kids' tapes

and send it out to the
record companies, roc.

It's matter of time
before they hit, roc.

It's just postage,
roc. It's all I'm talki...

Joey, do you know what
the odds are of those kids

really making it, huh?

I mean, you should
know, you're a musician.

Look at your damn career.

See, roc, that's why you're
in a position you're in today.

'Cause you never put
your butt on the line.

- You don't take any chance.
- You know..

That maybe so, Joey, but
that's why you're in a position

you are today because
you take too many chances.

- Roc, wait a minute.
- And you see this?

You see this? Heh!

This is a new refrigerator.

And some extras for
my savings account.

Roc, I'm tellin' you, you're
making a big mistake.

A big mistake, 'cause...

By the way, some
of that money is mine.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

- Uh, look, thanks, Mick.
- Alright, no problem.

Like I said, um, sorry I
couldn't pay you on time.

Well, fellas, consider yourself
out of the music business.

Hey, Mr. Emerson, you
know your refrigerator's broke?

Ah, ye-ye-yeah. I-I-I
know that. I know that.

'M gettin' a brand new one.

Hey, kids, come out
here. I gotta talk to you.

Yo, roc, what's up? I bet
he's not managing us anymore.

Is that true, roc?

Yeah, Eleanor.

Look, kids, it's like
I told you before.

Now, this just isn't happening.

You know what, I don't
wanna lead you on.

'It's not fair to you.'

now you see, kids, you're young,
and nothing seems impossible.

But the truth is,
it's tough out there.

The chances of you guys
making it big time are..

Oh, well, real slim.

And you'd do better
to stay in school

you know and get
yourselves a good education.

I'm not sayin' you guys
aren't good, because you are.

But to make it big, you
gotta be good and lucky.

Hey, kids, I don't deal in luck.

We're not gonna give up, we
wanna make it, right, fellas?

- Yeah.
- Well, I hope you do.

You know, just... Just
think about what I said.

Come on, kids.

- I'll walk you home.
- Bye, Mr. Emerson.

[Indistinct chatter]

Hey, look, uh, fellas, uh

sorry it didn't work out, huh?

- Alright.
- It's alright.

Hey, Mick.

Let me ask you something.

Now what do you plan
on doing with these kids?

Now, i'm-i hope you ain't
planning on using them

as a marker for
another bad debt.

No. I got them
a big record deal.

And the record company got them
signed with a big time managers.

Yeah, all I did was
send out a few tapes

and the offers came rollin' in.

They're gonna make me rich.

[Laughs]

So what do you say now, roc?

This time I was right.

We just let a million dollar
deal walk out that door.

I'm surprised it
doesn't bother you, roc.

Well, Joey, I'm not
bothered about it

because I know who I am.

I'm a worker, that's all I am.

I'm not a manager
in the music business.

I hope those kids do
sell a million records.

I'll be damn proud of 'em.

I hope they make it big time.

I'll be cheering and
applauding louder than anybody.

I'm sorry, Joey.

I know this meant a lot to you.

[Clicks tongue] Okay, roc.

If that's the way you feel.

Well, Joey, that's
the way I feel.

Okay.
