Tamera, are you happy with Jordan?

Why? Did he say something?

I bet those little dorm hoochies are jockeying my man.

I can't believe it. Tamera, Tamera, Jordan didn't say anything.

Oh, well, then we're happy.

Why? Well, because Tyreek is starting to feel so high school.

Yeah, six months ago you were so in high school.

here you go baby what's that this is the kiss that i threw you you accidentally

dropped it

Oh, come on, Tamir. You can't tell me that Jordan isn't immature sometimes.

Tia, Jordan is an intellectual, okay? He is very mature.

Okay,

okay, okay.

Sometimes he may be a baby, but he's my baby.

Even though I'm glad to be with you, I thought it was real for me. Like you got

to do what's right for you.

Time to freshen up. Yeah, beyond. He's our teaching assistant.

Well, I could surely use a private lesson.

Good morning, class.

Sorry I'm late.

I'll tell you, he gets finer every time I see him.

He calmed two days ago.

And he's gotten two days finer.

He is delicious, but... Too bad he's in academia. He'll never have a dime.

You guys are sad.

Drooling over the tea egg.

Okay, my scholars in training, pass your homework board.

Scholars in training.

You hear that?

Yeah, he asked for our homework.

See, that's what he wants you to do.

You're being hoodwinked, bamboozled, led astray.

If you ask me,

he's nothing but an operative for the man. You know what, Jamal?

You are all... is talking about the man.

I want to know who is the man?

The man? Yeah.

It's the one who's planning on his wild brothers around campus to distract the

sisters from their struggle.

Stop studying.

Your grades drop. You're kicked out. Next thing you know, you're begging for

quarters outside Krispy Kreme.

Tia Landry.

Right here.

Looks like you know a little something about differential calculus.

I guess I do.

Brilliant and modest. Class, take note.

Her homework's on time, it's legible, and she did the extra credit problem,

which, at first glance, looks correct.

Gee, Hank.

I'm starting to really like chemistry. I mean, calculus.

Hey, over here. I did my homework, too. What about me?

Forgive me.

Class, Jamal's homework.

is on time, too.

Tamara, I hope this coffee's strong.

Were you up late working on that Motown Cafe account?

Yeah, and it's gonna take Smokey Robinson and every last one of them

keep my eyes open.

Must be fun designing costumes.

Oh, yeah, the costumes are fun.

But those look -a -likes are getting on my nerves.

Jordan's here.

You hear me?

Jordan's here.

You were masked.

Don't stop. Catch your teeth. Don't stop. Oh, Lisa, it's just Jordan.

I don't have to pretend to be something I'm not.

And I don't have to pretend that that even makes sense.

Boy, did you even bother to wash your face this morning?

Yeah, why?

I got stuff in my eyes?

That's disgusting.

Next you'll be trying to floss with one of my folks.

Baby, my ear is sore. Will you look in it? Oh, it's probably just a little

blackhead. Let me see, sweetie.

What's missing?

Can we discuss it during office hours? I have to run to a meeting. Oh, wait. I

have class during your office hours.

I'll tell you what.

I'm going to be in the fella tonight checking out the amazing Edgar. Oh, the

hypnotist. Me and my friends are going there, too.

Well, good. Why don't you show up a few minutes early and we can chat before the

show? Okay. What's up, Tia?

Hi.

Tariq Scott, Tia's boyfriend.

Keith Brooks, Tia's TA.

Nice to meet you. I'll see you tonight. Bye.

Uh -huh.

What is wrong with you? What's wrong with me? Yeah.

What, I come in here to walk into your car and see some chump pushing up on

Nobody's pushing up on anybody. Well, that's because I blocked the pushing.

Tyreek, he's my teacher.

Whoa, but he is a man first.

Trust me, Tia, guys know these things. You know what? This is silly.

Well, you know what? I'm going to keep a silly eye on Dark Gable.

please just walk me to my car.

Thank you.

Trying to check my girl, boy.

You better learn, Tyree. Don't play that.

Hi, Keith.

Hey, guys, this is Tia, one of my calculus students.

Ah, yeah, it's one of your brilliant students we hear so much about.

Don't mind Bradford. He's just bitter because he's stuck teaching remedial

I figured out what I did wrong on that calculus problem.

The differential equation was separable.

That's right. You could have solved the problem by integrating both sides of the

equation. You know, I must be a really good teacher.

You must be.

Bye. Bye.

Who would like to be our first volunteer?

Ah, how about you and you and you over there?

Oh,

I don't think so.

No, thank you. Oh, let's give the pretty girl in the corner.

next to the sexiest person in the room.

And... Thank you very much. Let's give them a nice round of applause, ladies

gentlemen.

Still picking my warrior.

Good choice.

You are the expert on choosing.

Look, I got lost, okay?

All of the tables, they look the same. Yeah, but the people around them don't.

Tyreek, it's just a stupid game.

You're the one that told me to go up there. And that's your excuse?

That I made you do it?

Fight Keith like that.

Okay?

Now, can't you just act like a mature adult and let it go? Every time we have

disagreement, why am I always the one that's acting immature?

Look at how you're acting right now. I don't care.

All right, I was seeing my girl checking her math. She's obsessed with me, but

that's who I am.

Well, maybe that's the problem.

What's that supposed to mean?

Maybe who you are doesn't work with who I am anymore.

And who are you, Tia?

Look, Tariq, we're in college now.

We both need space to grow. To see other people?

Is that what you want?

Well, I guess.

Okay.

I got it.

I just talked to Tyree.

I can't believe they broke up.

They were like a perfect couple.

And what happened?

Jordan, remember when you used to call me just to say good morning?

Mm -hmm.

Why'd you stop doing that?

Because Tia said to stop waking her up at 5 a .m.

Oh, yeah.

You remember when you used to slide over and... Unlock the car door.

Why'd you stop doing that?

I didn't realize I did.

I guess that's how it happens.

You wake up one day and you're no longer dating. You're just hanging out.

Tamara Campbell, may I have the pleasure of your company for dinner tomorrow

night? A real date?

I would love to.

Oh, go ahead, baby. It's yours.

Oh, no, no, no, no. No, I insist.

No, no, no. It's all yours. It's all yours. Okay, fine. Can I have a bite?

Hey, hey, hey, Tia. I can't see.

Just walk out. Don't say anything.

Peggy!

Now you knew she was going to do that.

You already know, Tia. This is one of my other students, Deanne.

The audience.

This is my sister, Tamara.

Hi. Are you in Keith's class also?

Calculus? Yeah, right.

Tia, help me out here.

Every Tuesday, me and these predictable eggheads go to the same old sushi joint.

Oh, well, it sounds like it's time for a change.

You read my mind, didn't you?

I know a great sushi place.

Eat sushi?

That doesn't mean I don't know a place.

Walk and roll. Their sushi, oh, it's the bomb.

The undergraduate has to go.

Since you hipped us to this place, you have to join us.

Okay.

Keith?

I don't know.

We really got to run.

She just called me Kevin.

Hey, what are you up to?

Got a date.

Oh, you wearing that? Oh, no, no, no. I'm changing at the Avion.

This dress is great.

I didn't want to go through 20 minutes of, that dress could stand to be a

longer.

I hear you.

I change in the garage.

You know, Tina, honey, I am so glad that you and Tyreek worked it out. Oh, I'm

not going out with Tyreek.

Back it up and make it plain.

Well, his name's Keith.

He's smart, intelligent, sure, fine. And what about Tyreek?

It's over with Tyreek.

I don't understand why everybody wants me to sit around and mope about it.

Tia, I don't think you should mope, but I think you should take it slow.

Okay, Mom.

Tia, now, I know the graph always looks finer on the other side, but, well,

don't throw out the old.

Just because it is old.

Ma 'am, let go now.

Get. Thank you.

She don't hit me, though.

You looking for me?

You know I...

That you're the only one for me.

Say you'll never fall again.

You won't subject yourself to such pain.

But if you give me half a chance, I'll win. I'll never leave you standing out

the rain.

But if you think that I could look you in the face and lie right through my

teeth, then turn around.

looking for me?

You know I don't know you.

No, we've never met.

Tia, this is my girlfriend, Danielle.

Sweetheart, this is my favorite student, Tia.

Danielle's working on her PhD at Michigan State.

Nice to meet you.

Keith is always talking about how smart and mature you are for a freshman.

He really likes you.

Yeah, and I like him too.

Bradford. Oh, Bradford's gonna be late. He had to pick up his wife from work.

Gotta get the wives.

So, what do you recommend to you?

Uh... Anything wrapped in something else.

I'll be right back. I see some friends.

Hey, Tia.

Now, look, I know you told it not to come and you wanted...

How is she wearing that coat from three seasons ago?

Is that what we keep?

That's Danielle.

Keep it, girl.

Oops. Trey embarrassed me.

I feel so stupid.

I can't believe he led you on like that. Mary, he didn't lead me on.

You? Yeah.

Yeah, I'm cool.

Okay.

Um, can I talk to you for a minute?

Well, you know I'm on the clock.

Oh, no, no, it won't take long.

Yeah, okay, cool.

Um,

uh, I guess, no, no, no, uh, I know.

Shoot, uh, you know, I really feel stupid about what happened and I'd like

try again.

There.

I bet it's... I guess you did.

I'm really sorry, Terry.

I'm sorry, too, Tia.

But it's not that simple.

Look, I'm not going to say I haven't missed you, Tia.

Because I really have.

I mean, I really...

Half.

But I just think I need to kick it by myself for a while.

Why?

Till you did what you had to do for you.

All right?

Now I gotta do what I gotta do for me.

But look, I don't want us to stop being friends.

Sure. Friends.

All right.

Look, I gotta get back to work.

But you call me if you need to escort to your car.

Jamal, your mother's a... Jamal, your mother's... Jamal, your mother's a

lawyer. No, your mama's a doctor.

Jamal, your mom was a doctor, your father's a lawyer, and you... I'm

sorry. Huh?

I'm right.

Who's that kisser?

Keith. Keith, next.

Why is she wearing that coat from three to six?
