golden brown biscuits just like me golden brown something smells good these

biscuits are those biscuits homemade yes i went to the store and got a can of

them brought them back to the house and made them here at the house homemade

sure okay here you go right now let's give you this right there Bam, one, two.

That's why you have a butter right there.

Hot butter biscuits on your breakfast. Oh, you're so generous, Mr. Brown. What

are you doing, Mr. Brown? You playing with the food?

No, Cora, I'm trying to make the food stretch.

Ever since Edna the Colonel in London moved out, they stopped paying rent.

I told you they was all selfish.

I knew it.

Mr. Brown, you can't expect them to move out and still pay rent. Yes. You know

what? You're so right. Both of you are so, so right.

I'm going to triple your rent.

Yes, you pay three times.

That's not fair.

Well, I know. I'm just so desperate. I'd do anything to get out of this hole.

Well, you can let Colonel Miss Edna in London move back in. Anything but that.

I'm not that desperate. I wouldn't do that. No.

Mr.

Brown, this juice tastes like water.

Well, that's because most of it is water.

It's called rational.

No, it's called being irrational.

You can call it what you want to call it.

But the next time you go to the salon and try to get your eyebrows arched, and

you can only afford to get one of them done, you'll be walking around here

looking like this, like you're winking at everybody.

Excuse me, sir.

Excuse me. You'll be looking like... That's how you look every day.

Okay,

I finished cutting the grass and trimming the hinges, and I got the

of the drain. Oh, thank you, Jesus. You're such a good young man. I don't

what we would do without you being around here.

But times are hard, and I'm about to find out.

You're fired. Goodbye.

What? Uh, well, you can't understand.

Uh, el leto go -go. Bye -bye.

Bye -bye. Why didn't you tell me I was fired before I did all the work?

Because if I'd have told you that, you wouldn't have done all the work. Duh.

What am I supposed to do now? I don't know.

Carla? I read on the message board that the hospital's looking for janitors. You

can stop by later and apply.

Okay. Thanks, Hush, I will.

Uh, hey, Juice, I knew it was something else I forgot to ask you. Can you look

at the toilet? I forgot that one.

Mr. Brown.

Huh? I have a hoe.

Speaking of, I think Edna owed me some money for breaking her lease.

You're power.

Girl, you know that is way too short and way too skanky. Should I order you one,

too? Yeah, you know it, girl.

Hey, Derek.

Hey, little bit.

Sean.

It's my friend, Simone.

What's up, Simone?

How you doing?

I'm fine.

Hey, Simone.

Hey. How was the game?

Oh, well, it was, uh, good for me, but not so good for them.

My shot was off.

Of course it was off. That's because I blocked it way off up in the bleachers.

It's embarrassingly unnecessary in front of the women.

Ain't no women here.

I don't see nothing but two little girls.

And that's what you get for calling me old man.

That was old school.

Well, you know they say that hearing is the first thing to go.

Go ahead and ask him. Man, you ask him. Come on, man, we discussed this. You're

supposed to ask him, man. Yeah, but you cheated all seven times.

Will?

Derek has something he wants to ask.

What's up, Derek?

Hey, um, so we were thinking of having a quiet little get -together over at the

house tonight. You know, kind of like a Bible study.

And, um, we're a little short on chairs.

You're going to have a quiet little Bible study at your house.

The frat house.

Oh, so you mean like a frat party.

Yeah, you can call it a frat party.

We've never been to a frat party. Never been.

Uh, sorry a little bit. No little girls allowed, right? That's right.

Right, Will? Yeah.

What do you call little girls?

Uh, you and you.

Yeah, yeah. Pussy, wait. What you guys miss? Your cartoons.

Oh, man. I love cartoons.

What?

See, that's child's play over there.

We grown men doing manly things.

Bonding. That's right. Right? That's right. You buy us some liquor?

Uh, no. You guys are underage.

I didn't think so. Come on, Sean. Let's go. Right behind you.

Wasting my time with this old man anyway.

I should have never let him win. What?

And you know what? Before you two even ask, the answer's no.

No.

It's a frat party.

It's for college students. Yeah, well, I'm almost in college.

Well, then consider yourself almost going.

Well, I mean, you were in college once. You know, you kicked it at a few frat

parties a long, long, long, long, long, long time ago.

I don't know if it was that long ago, but I definitely went to some frat

parties. Oh, yeah.

Yeah, get it, get it.

Oh, no.

Oh, you're definitely not going.

No. Crap parties are wild and out of control. Anything can happen. But we'll

careful. Very careful.

Oh, yeah, I know you're going to be careful.

You know why?

Because you're going to be careful right here at home.

Thank you, Mr. Rob, for giving me a ride. I appreciate it. Well, that's the

least I can do for shattering all your dreams and hope and your aspirations.

So give me a ride until you pay me back.

I'll tell you what. Here, just take that, and we ought to be even.

What? You already drunk four of them. Now, here, take this one. We're even

Where's Sasha? Who's Sasha?

I don't know. You seen Sasha?

Sasha!

Sasha!

You don't shush me. You shush. You don't know me like I'm a grown man.

Sasha, we've been looking everywhere for you in this hospital.

You gotta keep it down, guys. Hospital rules.

I'm trying to help you.

Okay, you know what? Jesus, are you ready for your interview?

Yes. I mean, no.

I mean, yes, as soon as I come back from the men's room.

I would scream and tell him to come back, but I don't want to break no house

pillar roof.

You need to tell Jesus to hurry up because Mr. Delgado, the supervisor, is

stickler for time.

You're going to have to go ahead and, uh, I don't know.

Stall him until he gets back. Well, what am I going to do to stall him until he

gets back?

Oh, you're going to think of something.

Look, I got to go. I don't like house pillows. I'm scared.

I think they're going to give me a shot every time.

Y 'all be... I'll tell y 'all what.

Jesus Hernandez.

What? My friend is...

Oh, you must be Jesus Hernandez, eh? No, I'm going to pass on that.

Sasha told me a lot about you.

I'm brown.

I can see that, but don't worry. We don't discriminate around here.

Listen, let's just cut to the cheese, okay?

You done cut the cheese? That's fine.

No, listen, listen.

Sasha speaks very highly of you.

We need somebody. You need a job. So maybe we can help each other. Can you

work today?

Well, it's really... Look, you don't want to work in the medical field.

You need lots of new people. But see what I'm trying to tell you. For $20 an

hour.

Make my check out to Leroy S. Brown.

The S is for stacking paper.

It would be nice to live next door to a frat house.

of hot college men.

Man, I might as well live in Siberia.

Oh, I love Mississippi.

All right, ladies.

I'm heading out. What are your plans for tonight?

We're just going to watch horror movies till our eyes bleed.

Sounds like fun.

So look, your encore is upstairs at Joaquin.

My cell's on. I'm only going to the hospital for a few hours to check on

patients, but call me if you need me, okay?

All right.

And Brianna, listen, I know you probably think I'm being a little unfair about

the frat party thing, but you'll understand when you get older.

Okay?

All right.

Have fun.

Bye.

Her strict overprotective dad, he almost seems pretty cool. Here

you go.

Have you been drinking?

I just had a sip of some guy's beer.

And you drank it?

He could have put anything in that drink. And you shouldn't be drinking

Why? I'm not driving. Who are you?

Will and Sasha?

I'm surprised they even let you come over.

You snuck over, didn't you?

You don't think I look mature?

Lil B looks silly.

I need to get in that house before Will comes looking for me.

Because that dude is big.

I got to get Simone. She went back to the bathroom. Wait, wait, wait.

Simone is still over there?

Yeah, I'm just going to... Look, I'll get Simone.

You just go in the house and try to act like a 15 -year -old.

and tried to get my dress off.

He said if I wanted to look like an adult, I should act like one.

I said no, and he hit me.

So I hit him back, and he got mad and kept hitting me over and over and over

again. So I balled up and stopped fighting so he would stop.

Simone, who did this to you?

Was it John?

I thought he was nice.

I need to call my mom.

I need to call my mom.

No, no, no. I need to call my mom. Wait, come on. I need to call my mom. Calm

down, calm down, calm down. Listen, it's been a long night. A lot has happened.

Let's just stop and think. I need to call my mom.

Stop and think, okay?

Look, girl, I really, I really feel for you.

But we can't tell anybody about this.

Why not?

Because. I mean, we weren't supposed to be over there. If we tell our parents,

then they're going to flip out and ground us till we're in college.

You understand what I'm saying, don't you?

Yeah, I understand.

All right.

Your

first

day is going fine.

Yeah. Except for the patient complaints.

What complaints? Patient complaint? What patient is complaining?

All of them.

All of them?

Well, I got complaints, too.

The patient in room 304 don't want to leave the room so I can clean his floor.

I say, why you won't leave the room? He's just sitting there looking at me

this, like he don't understand what I'm saying.

He's catatonic.

Well, I'm Baptist. Just like the Catholics and the Baptists don't go to

same church. We all love the Lord.

Catatonic means nothing moves him.

Well, they need to come to my church. My pastor will preach them until they're

all up shouting.

And I went down to that basement. Why y 'all keep it so cold down there? I

turned the heat on.

Yeah, it was too cold. And I went and I started looking at the people. I started

talking to everybody. Nobody wouldn't say nothing. What y 'all giving them to

why they sleep so long?

They're dead.

Well, that explains why they ain't saying nothing, dear.

Y 'all might want to turn the air back on up there because it can get pretty

raunchy up in there. Probably won't sleep anymore.

That's a good idea.

Yeah. How are you doing with supplies, eh? Oh, I'm good. I'm good. You have

towels? Yeah, check.

Liners? Check.

Urinal cakes?

Oh, I'm trying to leave them sweets alone.

Have you ever buffed before?

Have I ever buffed before?

Why are you going to ask a dumb question like that? I've been working with my

hands all my life. All you do is the wax on and the wax off. You ever do the wax

on and the wax off? Have you ever...

I don't play that freak stuff.

Stop being nasty.

No, no, no. You just press this button, you move side to side, and you make sure

you cover the entire floor.

Oh, I can do that. It's easy. Anybody can do that. Just side to side, cover

whole floor. Oh, and by the way, be very careful.

You see that statue?

Yeah. Yeah, that was dedicated to the hospital by some very wealthy

philanthropists. Philanthropists? Who's been peeing? Some kind of people peeing?

In other words, if you break it, you buy it.

Oh, why do I look like the man from Atlantis?

Okay, make sure you cover the whole floor. Okay, I'll get this out of your

Okay, just side to side. Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow.

Okay. Adios.

Adios to you.

Wait a minute.

I got it. I'm side to side. I'm moving side to side. And I got a door.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute. Hold it.

Wait.

One of the shampoo costs two dollars.

Hey, Mr. Brown, what you doing?

What are you doing?

Mr. Brown, don't you tell me that's what I think it is.

Sasha, this ain't what you think it is. Is that the statue from the hospital?

You just told me. Don't tell you what I think it is.

Mr. Brown, how could you? Okay, how could you? Okay, do you know how much

thing costs?

Huh? A lot.

Brown, I got your call. I came as soon as I could. What's up?

Good, Jesus, I'm glad... Is that the statue from the hospital?

This is one just like it. I want you to fix it to where it look just like it.

Here. He lying. It's the one from the hospital. He broke it.

That's what you get for stealing my job.

The car ain't nobody's ass, you nut.

Can you fix it? Wait, but you remember, you find him.

Carver, stop living in the past. We in the future. Stop bringing up past stuff.

Listen, I got a surprise for everybody.

Unless you got another one of these statues in the back of your truck, I'm

interested. Just help me fix this.

I took the bar a few weeks ago.

Really? Why didn't you say anything?

I didn't want to say anything until I got the results back.

Okay, Jesus, you're telling us now, so what does that mean?

I passed!

Congratulations!

That is great! That means you can practice law, right? That's right, I can

practice law. Oh, that's wonderful!

My professor said I scored so high, he pulled some strings. I got a job already

as a public defender. Really?

Yeah. There ain't nothing great about that. I've been offending the public all

my life.

I'm not hating.

I'm taking this just to get you a job at his law firm.

Breaking the statute can cost you your job. Yeah, we can't send you anywhere,

Mr. Brown.

Well, if you really want to know, this is really... It's Cora's fault.

Cora? Yes, it's Cora's fault. If you had went out and done something with your

life, I wouldn't have to have that job. I got that job so I can keep a roof over

your head, and this is how you pay me? Gonna come here and blame it on me? You

need to go down there and tell them you did it. This is your fault. Don't tell

them. Don't lie. Just go down there and tell them you broke it. You have lost

your mind, Mr. Brown. I ain't lost nothing.

You're going to blame it on me. Hey, baby. Blame it on somebody.

Okay, okay, I'll be right there. What's wrong, Sasha? What is it? Okay, it's

Will. There's a problem at the hospital with Brianna. I'll be back.

The hospital?

Hey, Sush, you need to show me how to fix this. Yes, you fix that.

Baby, first.

I don't need you.

Yeah,

you fix this.

Simone didn't look too bad.

She didn't look too bad?

Brianna, she wouldn't be here if it weren't for you.

Me? I didn't attack her. Sean did.

It doesn't matter.

You went over to that frat party after I told you not to.

You're just as guilty as Sean.

You've gone too far this time, Brianna.

And what gets me is that you tried to hide it from us so you wouldn't get in

trouble. Do you even care about Simone?

You're so selfish.

Look, I feel bad, but there's nothing I can do about it.

You don't feel bad about it.

We were in that room and you didn't show one ounce of remorse the entire time,

Brianna.

Huh?

Look, if I've learned anything in my life is that bad things happen.

She just got to brush it off and keep it moving.

Brush it off and keep it... What?

That's the kind of attitude we're talking about right there, Brianna.

That attitude might work where you came from.

But in this family... We take care of each other and our friends so that

like this don't happen.

But, I don't know.

Maybe you can't handle that kind of responsibility.

Maybe you just need to go on back to foster care.

So you know what?

This is Penny Williams from Child Welfare.

Why don't you just go on with her, alright?

And tell her what you did.

Baby, look, I don't think we should do this. No, no, no, no, no.

I'm sick of it. And it's become a pattern.

With her.

So, you don't want to take care of your family and your friends? You just want

to do what you want to do?

You want to be that selfish and think it's all about you? Then fine.

Go. We don't need you. You don't want us. We don't want you. Just go on back

foster care. Go on.

Are you serious? Will, I messed up, okay?

I messed up and Simone got hurt. Is that what you want me to say? I messed up.

Now you want to cry.

Are you crying because of Simone or because you got caught?

Do you think I wanted that to happen?

I think that your only real concern is that it's not you.

Why am I still talking to you?

I'm done, Brianna.

I'm done.

We're done with you.

Go.

Will, please don't make me go back. Please.

I'm sorry, okay? Is that what you want me to say?

I'm sorry.

You're really sorry?

Yes.

You're going to do what you're told? Yes, I promise. You're going to stop

all this attitude? Yes.

I promise, please, just don't make me go back.

Well, maybe we should let her stay.

Let me talk to Ms. Williams and see if I can undo this.

In the meantime, go on back in the room and you just sit with Simone until

visiting hours are over.

Thanks, Brenda.

I know you gotta get back to x -ray. Thank you so much. Baby,

I think we did it.

I think we finally got through to her.

Yay?

Happy.

Good afternoon.

yesterday, except for the dead people thing.

You have a very bright future here. Really?

I tell you what, I'm going to be the head janitor for long.

Janitor brothers for life!
