Hey, what are you doing?

I'm writing an essay for class.

Oh, I used to write my essays on the way home from school.

But wasn't it bumpy in that covered wagon?

And that horse smell?

Horse smell?

What do you, how old do you think I am?

Around 90. Don't you answer that.

Please, leave me alone, Mr. Brown. Okay, look, now I don't know what you're so

upset about anyway.

What's going on, you two? Ever since I picked her up from school, she's been

acting ugly.

Great, now we're... Attitude matches your faith.

Don't make me look too rough. I ain't nobody gonna hurt anybody now. Now, what

happened? Mr. Brown, he just picked you up from school.

Damn it. What is it? What's wrong with that? Yeah, what's wrong with that?

I came right to that school after I slaved over a hot job and picked you up

you're just ungrateful.

That's what's wrong with you're ungrateful.

Ms. Cora, how did Mr. Brown get to work this morning?

He took his bike.

Oh. Oh.

What, Carver?

What you mean?

What's wrong with that? Mr. Brown, you picked up on your bike? Yes, I let her

ride on the handlebars.

Carver, she didn't fall for one time. I said, where come that dog?

Where come that dog? Hold on. She was holding on, Mr. Brown.

Mr.

Brown. It was so embarrassing, Miss Coral. I'm sorry. Well, excuse me for

to say the word for harmful commission.

It's omissions, duh.

This boy right here has something in his heart. He say he'll join the circus.

At least he gonna get him a good job. Thank you, Wakoni.

That boy's on to something right there. Join the circus.

I won. I beat you. No, you didn't, because I beat you to the mailbox. It

matter. We wasn't rushing to the mailbox. We were racing to the door. I

you didn't, you see, because I was standing right here. It doesn't matter.

My eye.

Honey. Well, are you okay? You two need to stop playing in this house.

Yep. It's all fun and games until somebody get punched in the face by the

Honey, let's just put some ice on it, okay?

All right. All right. Oh, Uncle Brown got something.

What the?

Oh. What the? I know you didn't just stick your fangles off in my ice. Yes,

did. Joaquin.

Hey, buddy. How's that essay coming along, huh?

I'm writing about the family. Oh, cool.

So, uh, let me take a look.

Okay.

Meet the Browns by Joaquin Brown. All right. Well, that's a good start.

Nah, the title will never work.

Carver, who would watch that?

Now remember, Miss Bills, that is four pills every four days and not four pills

every day.

Oh, man.

Facts of life, I tell you. Okay, Monica, I was meaning to talk to you. I

finished your evaluation.

Oh, should I sit for this? No.

In fact, everything turned out great.

Monica, everything from your attendance, your patient interactions, follow -ups.

Everything was outstanding.

Wow. Oh, that is great.

Oh, I'm just doing my job.

No. No, Monica, listen to me. You are special.

Look, from your presentation to your attention to details, I only wish I had

more nurses like you.

Oh, thank you.

That means a lot coming from my superior.

Oh, come on.

I hope you don't just think of me as your superior.

I'd like to...

Consider us more like friends.

Hmm?

Okay.

Uh -oh. You got a little something right there.

There you go.

Now you're back to your perfect self. Huh?

Thank you.

Um, you know that I don't go that way.

What way are you talking about?

Oh, that way.

No, no, no, no. Me either. No, listen.

Monica, listen. I'm just so used to wiping my kids' faces that it's kind of

a reflex.

Nothing else.

Okay? Whatever you say.

Monica, you know what? There was one other thing.

When I was looking at your self -evaluation, I saw that you gave

than favorable mark when it came to interacting with your coworkers.

Do you want to talk about it?

Let's just say that not everyone in the hospital is easy to get along with.

Now, that's not true.

Here, Lucy.

What you looking at?

May, I am going to ignore your negative behavior today.

Well, that's going to be kind of hard for you to do, because I'm going to be

up in your grill like roadkill. What?

What?

We're in a hospital.

Good, because she makes me sick.

What has she ever done to you?

Nothing. She thinks she's better than everybody else.

Renee, do you ever think about the things you say before they fall out of

mouth? And why would I do that?

Oh, hey, did you get my self -evaluation form?

I sure did.

So, what'd you do with it?

Let's just say that it wouldn't flush.

He seemed riding in that piece of junk.

Hey, don't be disrespectful. I thought he was picking you up in his car. He

That's why I had to run.

And he wouldn't see me if it didn't stall at every light.

Here.

Thank you.

Um, can I go with Simone to see deaf people tonight?

Now, why would you want to do that?

Um, it's not real deaf people. It's a new group.

And they ride.

age where she's embarrassed easily.

And I mean, what her friends think is more important than what she thinks.

Carver, were you ever embarrassed to me?

Huh? Um, sometimes.

Well, when did it stop?

Hey, guys!

Hey, what are you two up to?

Oh, nothing, just cooking. Well, I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to

apologize or make Brianna's life miserable just for the fun of it.

I vote for miserable.

I'll get the bell. Sit down, boy.

Oh, well, uh, it looks worse than it feels.

What's going on with Brianna? What's wrong with her?

What's right with her?

Joaquin, Will, how about you pick up from school tomorrow?

No, no, you can borrow my bike to pick up. I just put a fresh new cord off in

the spoke. It just... Joaquin, how'd your essay turn out? Pretty good.

But my teacher says I can't come back to school until she makes a home visit.

Home visit?

What's for dinner?

I like your little newlyweds. You're all set.

Your cute little selves. Oh, I just love young love. I love it. I love it.

I saw that.

What? I know. Did you see him? He's willing to cheat already.

without patients anyway.

Oh, here comes Miss I'm on time all the time.

Nurse Brown, I'm glad I ran into you. Is everything okay?

Yes, everything's fine. I just saw the new relief physician was posted on the

job board and I wanted to ask you about it. Don't even think about it. Not gonna

happen, Miss Brown Nose Nurse.

No. I have seniority, so if anybody's gonna get that position, it's gonna be

I'm gonna get this position.

Aren't I, Sasha?

I'm not getting it.

So, what about it?

I just had my evaluation.

I'm more than qualified.

And so are a few other nurses who have way more seniority.

Oh, look at there.

Oh, my gosh. Look, look. Do you see it?

It's your face.

And it's cracked.

You want me to get it for you? Here you go.

I know what this is about.

What are you talking about?

This is about me not going along with your little advances this morning.

Asha!

I didn't know you were ACDC.

Look, I am not ACDC, and I resent that implication.

Oh, you were just singing my praises this morning and being all touchy

and then when I told you I didn't go that way, you changed your tune.

You are taking this the wrong way, Monica. I am not.

You are.

See what the board has to say about this when I report you.

Oh, really?

So you're going to report me for what? What do you think?

Sexual harassment.

My lawyer will be in touch.

You are right.

We do need more nurses like that.

All right. I wonder why Joaquin's teacher won't see us.

Yeah, Joaquin, what did you write in this essay?

I just wrote about the fact... You didn't smitch on Medea, did you?

Huh? I don't know anything about Medea.

Good, because she'll take out her kin people.

This is probably a teacher now.

Hi, how are you?

Good evening. Welcome to our humble commode.

Carmen,

don't correct me in front of company. Sit down.

Sit back down.

Come on in.

I'm Dr. Brown, and I'm Joaquin's father.

Oh, he adopted.

That's why they don't look nothing like.

He's adopted?

Yeah. That explains a lot.

What do you mean that explains a lot? A lot about what?

About this.

As you are aware, Joaquin wrote an essay about his family. You are aware of

this, aren't you?

Of course I'm aware.

Yeah, we are aware.

According to this essay, he doesn't get a lot of attention.

And I quote, my family fights all of the time.

This morning, my sister said she hates the family.

No, Biggie, she always says that.

Excuse me. Hi, I'm Cora Simmons.

Have a seat.

I'm a teacher, too.

Is this...

His sister's a teenager, and, you know, she says a lot of things she doesn't

mean. Okay, what did he say? Mr. Bird, it's not the time.

You got one more time.

Hey,

Will, can I go see dead people?

Uh, sure, just be back before nine.

Okay, cool.

Dead people rock.

Yeah.

You let her go see dead people?

As long as her homework's done.

Lemonade? Cool and refreshing drink?

Joaquin also writes, and again I quote, Will and Sasha are always talking about

beating each other. I wish they would just stop it.

We were racing.

Is that what happened to your eye? Racing with your wife?

Actually, see, my wife, she actually...

Very sweet.

Nothing like it sounds. She's a gentle woman. She wouldn't hurt a fly. Yes,

gentle. She is, yes.

Hi, sweetheart.

Oh, I'm so mad I could kill somebody.

Uh, baby, uh, what happened?

Would you believe that I'm being accused of sexual harassment?

What?

That's crazy.

By a woman.

Really?

Which one?

Yeah, but that's funny. Yeah, that you react that way. Because I didn't have a

smirk on my face when you were being investigated for murder.

I didn't really murder.

Company at 12 o 'clock.

Wrong 12.

Oh. And who's this?

Somebody who has heard enough.

This is my teacher.

Miss Flood, meet the brown.

Hey, Renee.

Why are you so depressed?

You know why.

Because Monica is trying to take me down.

That's what she's accusing you of, you little freak -a -lake.

But don't worry about it. Renee's here to rescue.

Just call me Captain Save -A -Nurse.

And what are you going to do?

I'm going to get her to confess that she set you up.

How?

I'm wired.

Renee, I told you to lay off the caffeine.

Not that kind of wired square booty.

No, I'm wearing a wire.

So I'm going to record her confession.

Thanks, Renee.

Yeah, no, no problem. So I'll call you when it's done.

Hey, thanks for believing in me.

Sasha, everybody knows that you have no freak in you.

Now, you probably wear slippers in the shower.

Those are shower shoes.

Check my microphone. One, two.

Hey.

Hey, yourself.

What you doing?

What do you care?

You can't stand me.

Why would you say something like that?

You wrote it on the bathroom wall?

That was last week.

No, that was before I realized that we have a common enemy.

Oh, who's that?

The nurse everyone loves to hate, Sasha.

I don't know what you're talking about. Oh, come on.

I know it.

You're setting her up.

Come on, you can tell me.

What are you doing? I'm just fixing my bra.

The underwire is uncomfortable, that's all.

Okay. So come on, tell me. I know Sasha.

And she does not swing that way.

What are you saying? I'm not her type?

No, well, no, not unless your name is Dr. Brown.

Or Troy.

Talk to me.

I do think I deserve that position.

And she's in my way.

So what you're saying is you're setting her up for sexual harassment so you can

get her out the way, right?

Nurse Monica?

I sure am. And by the time I'm finished with her, she is going to wish she gave

me that position.

Wait. Can you say that again?

I said... Louder.

I said, by the time I'm finished with Nurse Goody Two -Shoes, she is going to

wish she gave me that position.

Now, do you want to go get a bite to eat or something?

Oh, no. No, thank you.

I like boys.

This is all a huge mistake.

We all love Joaquin. Yes. We love him like a fat kid, like cake.

Like a big girl, like a girdle. What?

Like tiger, like golf.

I can't take that chance.

According to the law, an educator must investigate any signs of abuse in the

home. I would think you would know that, teacher.

Breathe, Corey. Breathe.

Breathe. Ms. Plutt, listen, you've got it all wrong, okay?

We're one big happy family. Yeah. All right?

Life sucks.

And then you die. What is it with you now, child?

I went over to Simone's house for no reason. She didn't have dead people. How

you explain that? Simple.

Dead people are banned.

Am I missing something? Is the little geek in trouble?

What about your eyes?

Does your wife beat you?

Come on. Really? Look at me.

There's no need to be embarrassed.

And Joaquin's cry for attention.

He's very detailed.

We all pay attention to Joaquin. I don't.

Yes, Joaquin.

Would you tell her that we all pay attention to you?

Well, you guys kind of pay attention to me. All you have to do is open your

mouth and say yes, and you got to come up. Joaquin, Joaquin, say yes.

Joaquin, Joaquin, you don't have to be scared.

They can't hurt you anymore.

It hurt me. This is my family. They adopted me and whatever that is over

there and gave us a great home.

They may be a little crazy, but they're the best family in the world.

Oh, thanks, buddy.

Well, Miss Flood, any other questions?

Not now. I'll investigate a little further.

I'm going to keep my eye on you.

Yeah, well, you should keep your eye on this family down the street.

It's a two -year -old got a smoker's cough.

I seen that boy smoking a cigar the other day.

What did I make on my F, then?

I gave you a B minus.

B minus? What? Uh -oh, watch out. You can't do that. You're for real. This is

spending. Let me do it.

Why you gonna give this baby a B minus? You know you could have at least gave

him an F for family.

Don't you know anything about family?

What's the saying? Praise together.

Yeah, a family that prays together stay together.

Thanks for having my back, Renee.

Oh, well, if you really want to thank me, you could give a sister the relief

position. Renee, you know you're not qualified for that position.

That's who?

Everything that matters in the universe.

Sasha.

Nurse Brown.

If it means anything, I never would have gone through with it.

Oh, that's nice to hear.

But it means absolutely nothing.

Nada.

What's gonna happen to me now?

Who cares what happens to you? This ain't no after -school special, girl.

rocks. Kick the box.

Kick rocks.

Wow. So, Sasha.

So? So, have you ever stolen anything, like toilet paper?

Staples, condoms, birth control pills.

No, Renee.

I haven't. But I know that you have, Renee.

Well, disregard that last message.
