As I creep closer to my senior year, the
need for extra financial resources has

become apparent.

For example, senior trips, fly
wardrobes, and the new car of my dreams.

I mean, let's face it, I'll be lucky if
my hoopty makes it to the end of this

year.

The real is, I need money.

But the for real is, I don't want to ask
my daddy.

Anybody out there hiring?

Oh, well, here's one.

Gals, gals, gals.

Earn up to $650 a day.

Flexible hours. This is perfect for you,
girl. You love to dance.

Yeah, but not on tables.

Ooh, we all gonna be dancing on tables
if we don't pay this check.

Kim, how much you got?

Kim, girl, you know I'm monetarily
challenged.

Niecy, I'm just challenged.

Well, I'm just putting in a dollar
because all I had was a Coke.

Don't worry, I got it covered.

is free, but you still owe me for the
nachos.

And don't call me Shirley.

You know, you still want a job?

Yeah, and some money to pay this bill.

Oh, man, do what I do.

What, eat at my house?

You want a job or what?

All right, what's the job? All right,
working at the Beverly Center, selling

clothes with me. I already got your
interview.

Oh, thank you. How can you? Oh, I see
you got half of my tip together.

Then how you gonna pay for the bill?

I'm going to wash and dry.

Dry.

A king, Bambi!

It's Rudolph.

A deer's a deer, son.

That star's not going to brand open
itself.

I want to see some elbow grease.

Oh, come on, Ed. Give us a break. I
mean, even the Amistad served water.

Hey. Hey, Mom.

Good luck. Thank you. Okay.

Alicia, how you doing, girl?

Fine, Ed, but I'd be even better if I
had a job.

Okay, let's get on with this interview.

Hakeem, time it.

It's Rudolph, Mr. Dog.

Yeah.

Okay, Big Ed's in a good mood. Five
-minute water break.

That's two and a half minutes each.

You see how much they enjoy working for
me?

Don't let the love pass for you.

Because if you work for Eddie Belk, you
work.

Now, the class act is not just a mom
-and -pop operation.

Mm -mm.

It's a national chain.

Eddie, I'm not afraid of hard work.

In fact, if you hire me, I'll be the
best employee you've ever had.

That's why I like you, Moesha.

You understand Big Ed.

Tell you what, you're hired.

You can start tomorrow.

So how's it going, Belk?

gone great, Mr. Barney. Things gone
great. The store looks good, though, you

know. You've done a great job as interim
manager.

Well, I was hoping you'd see fit to drop
the interim and, you know, make me the

manager.

You don't get to put that up, though.

Meet Linda Daniels, the new manager.

Oh, that sounded like you said new
manager.

He did.

Oh.

So let's say you're the manager.

You're hurting me.

I'm sorry.

You got a frail little thing. You sure
you can handle a job like this?

As long as I have strong employees to
help me out.

Well, Moesha's stronger than she looks.

I just had her.

I'm going to go in the back and check on
Hakeem and Dancer.

So, do you got any coffee back there?

Sure, Mr. Carbone.

I'll make you a special cup. Thank you.
A real special cup.

It's Moesha, but I'd like to be involved
in the hiring of my sales staff.

Oh, I understand that, Daniel.

Do you mind if I ask you a personal
question?

What is it?

Were you ever on the cover of Glamour?

Well, actually, it was the inside cover.

I did an eye drop ad.

Would you like to see? No, no, no.

I remember vividly.

Wow. Really does get the red out.

Thank you.

You know, Moesha, I think you're going
to do fine here.

We'll see you tomorrow.

Aw, thanks, Miss Daniel.

Please call me Linda.

See you tomorrow, Linda.

Found the glue, Dad.

Oh, thanks, son.

All right.

There you go.

Dinner's ready, guys.

Oh, thanks, Dee.

Frank, what are you doing?

I'm gluing this coffee cup back
together.

Why? It's hideous.

Mo made this for me when she was six.

It's priceless.

Oh, she was quite the little artist.

Well, you know, it'd be worth more if
she was dead.

Hey, it works for Van Gogh.

Why don't I go wash my hands?

You know, Lee, I remember the day that
Mo gave this to me.

She said I was the best dad in the whole
world.

Yeah, she probably doesn't feel like
that anymore.

Frank, how do you and Moesha just going
through some changes?

No, it's more than that, Dee.

I just don't understand her anymore.

God, I miss my little girl.

Frank, Moesha will always be your
daughter, but she is not a little girl.

Yeah, I know, I know. I just want to do
family things again.

Hey, maybe we should just plan a family
day.

Oh, that's fine.

As long as it doesn't include camping,
bungee jumping, or skiing.

It's fine.

Hey. Hey, baby.

Guess what, y 'all. I got a job at Class
Act in the Beverly Center.

Now, before you overreact, it's not
going to interfere with my schoolwork.

that's great, Pumpkin.

Great.

Who are you, and what have you done with
my dad?

I want a job.

Now, Miles, you know the circus is not
in town.

Well, I also have a little surprise.

We are going to spend a family day
together.

Now, any suggestions?

Let's go to Raging Waters.

And get my hair wet? Oh, no.

How about the Philharmonic?

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh, let's go to Hawaii.

Something we can afford, Mo.

Hey, wait a minute. We haven't been to
Disneyland in a while.

Shoot, it's cheaper to go to Hawaii.

Yeah. Let's go to Disneyland.

Yeah, that works for me.

All right. You know, they do have a lot
of cute guys working there. Yeah, that

goofy is fine.

All right, so Disneyland it is, right?
Next Saturday.

Oh, Miles, maybe you can get a job at
Disneyland.

I heard they're hiring at Small World.

So, how's it going, employee of the
week?

Thanks for carrying it.

Oh, you know, I'm happy for you.

Eddie, I've got an audition tomorrow for
a shampoo commercial.

Could you cover for me?

Oh, I don't think so.

See, Eddie Belt only works Mondays
through Fridays.

No weekends.

Are we forgetting I'm the manager?

Then you better manage to be here
tomorrow.

Come on, Hakeem. We got customers.

That's why he'll never have manager
after his name.

You know how I became manager, Moesha?

So? People do talk.

I work day and night.

And weekends.

Could you fill in for me tomorrow?

Tomorrow, Linda, I'm supposed to be
going to Disneyland with my family, and

sort of special.

Well, so is this opportunity.

I mean, this is your chance to show
upper management what I have already

you.

I don't know, Linda.

Oh, come on.

Employee of the week. You are one
weekend away from employee of the month.

All right, I'll do it.

Louisa, you do not know how much this
means to me. You're the best.

No, but I know how much this Saturday
meant to my dad.

Oh, what's up, Mom?

Hey, what are you guys doing here?

Duh. It's Saturday.

We're at the mall with Q.

Enough said.

Kim, now you know I cannot do that. My
employee discount is for my immediate

family only.

Okay, I'm immediately your good.

Class Act, may I help you?

Oh, hey, Linda.

Oh, you got a call back. That's great.

Sure, I can cover for you tomorrow.

Oh, I can have next weekend off?

Thanks.

Toodles back at you.

Toodles? That was my manager.

Well, I knew it wasn't Sister Soldier.

I have to cover for her tomorrow.

But I thought you were covering for her
today.

I am.

Lately, I've been doing my job and
Linda's.

Girl, you can't let her use you like
that.

Now, what about my hooker?

What about your pride?

Oops, moving on.

And forget Kimbo. What are you gonna do
about Linda? I don't know.

If she keeps trying to get over on me
like this, I gotta do something.

Well, you can start by giving me a 90 %
discount.

That'll really tick her off.

See, there is too much drama in working.

See, that's why I'm gonna be a
homemaker.

Shoot, niece, as pretty as you are, you
look good in a housecoat.

Although I'm fat like them legs.

Last time I saw legs, that skin, it was
six of them.

Mo, you better tell this old geezer to
leave me alone before I hurt him.

Your red lips say stop, but your green
eyes say go.

you doing here? I thought you didn't do
weekends.

I don't. Just need to make some free
long distance calls.

Now see, this is a man who understands a
hooker.

Eddie, can I use your discount?

I'll give you Nisa's phone number.

his phone number.

Hakeem, that was Mickey.

Oh.

Then disregard that last statement.

How come you couldn't get off work?

Hakeem did.

Yeah, Hakeem, I've been meaning to ask
you. How did you get the day off?

I just asked Linda, and she said, Moesha
got everything under control.

That's me, the team player.

Well, baby, you need me to come down
there and talk to somebody?

No, Daddy, I can handle it.

Says that I really wanted to go with you
guys.

Yeah, well, we miss you too, baby.

But you can go with us next Saturday to
the Getty Museum.

Ooh, the Getty? That's dope.

I'm off next weekend. I'm there. All
right. The museum?

Can't we just get Dee a shower cap and
go to Raging Waters?

I'm glad you're here, because I wanted
to go over your schedule for this

weekend. Oh, well, that should be quick.
I'm off.

Actually, I really need you here.

But I am going to give you Tuesday and
Wednesday off.

Linda, you promised that I can have this
weekend off.

No, that was before I found out about
the casting director's convention in Las

Vegas. It will do wonders for my career.

A lot of important people are going to
be there.

going to the Getty Museum with my family
on Saturday, and that's important to

me.

Oh, please.

What's more important?

Having a family life or having a career?

A career?

Linda, I'm part -time, and my job
description does not include me doing

job.

Well,

excuse me.

Why don't you refresh my memory and tell
me... your job description.

Well, greeting and assisting customers,
marking down merchandise, and

maintaining inventory.

And you forgot one, sweetie.

Anything Linda tells you to do.

Oh, well, here's a new one, sweetie.

I quit.

Good afternoon, fellas.

Look, here's your paychecks.

Here you go.

Hello, Benny.

Don't hello Benny me, huh, Linda?

I want to know why you let Moesha
Mitchell quit.

She was our best employee.

Oh, Mr. Carboni, when I hired Moesha, I
knew she'd be an asset to this company.

I'm her mentor.

You were my manager.

And, and, and, and if it wasn't for
Moesha, your wannabe actress butt would

history by now.

And as cute as that butt is, I would
have no problem watching her walk out

door into the unemployment line.

Mr. Carboni, could we finish this
discussion in the back?

Oh, yeah, because I'm not through with
you yet.

Carry on, men.

Let's go.

Did you see

the way Carboni read her?

I got to call Moisa. Let me do it.

Moisa, get in there.

Hey, Mo, what are you doing here?

Just picking up my check.

Wow, the way Carbony went off on Linda,
you can probably pick hers up, too.

It couldn't happen to a nicer person.

What was he going off on her about?

You, my little grasshopper.

Carbony wants Linda to hire you back.

Oh, hi, Moesha.

Look, here's your paycheck.

Thank you.

Linda here would like to talk to you.

Let's take a walk to the Orange Julius,
fellas. Come on, the hot dogs are on me.

It's more like the hot dogs are in it.

You know, Moesha, I thought about what
happened, and I'm sure you'll agree we

both overreacted.

Myself included.

This is an apology?

Yes, and I accept.

Welcome back, Moesha. No, hold up.

Working here was one thing, but I didn't
like being used.

So?

I'll come back under these conditions.

I get a raise.

But we'd stick to my job description.

Deal.

And I'd like a company car.

Nice try.

So, go ahead and punch in, huh?

Nah, I'll start back Monday. Toodles.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, Daddy.

Good news. I got my job back. They were
begging, almost groveling. They even

offered me a company car.

But I said that wasn't necessary.

You know what? I'm off this weekend, so
I can go with you guys to the Getty.

That's great, Mo.

Unfortunately, we're not going.

Why not?

Well, when I called the Getty about
reservations, the operator just laughed

me.

He said they booked up for the next
month.

Oh.

So where are Dan Miles?

They went to a Clipper game to get over
their disappointment.

I hope they're rooting for the other
team.

I don't think so.

Playing the Nuggets.

You know, Pumpkin, why don't you and I
go out?

No thanks, Daddy. I'm a little tired.

Maybe some other time.

Yeah, yeah, sure.

Gotcha.

Come on, Daddy. I'm going to take you
someplace special.

Yeah, where are we going?

To the prom.

Look at my daddy.

He may not understand a word Hakeem's
saying.

We sure are having a good time.
