Hey, Calvin.

What are you looking for?

The newspaper.

That new paperboy
hasn't hit my porch once

since he started.

The closest he got
was my truck.

And I was driving down
the street at the time.

That's funny.

I found one right on my
doorstep this morning,

and I don't even
get the paper.

Give me a dollar
or give me my paper, Dave.

Okay, but
spoiler alert:

I read your horoscope,
and today's gonna be

a good day for romance.

It already was.

Tina woke me up early
this morning.

Hey, Calvin.

Hey, Gemma,
what are you doing home?

I had to come
back to change.

My PE teacher didn't
show up again,

so I had to cover
dodgeball for him.

Oh, that's a relief.

I thought you had got
jumped into a gang.

I don't know what
I've got to do

to get through
to Coach McCluskey.

I keep warning him,

but he's always
got some excuse.

His mother died twice,
and then she was in a coma.

You know, if it were me,
I would just sit him down,

I would put my hand
on his shoulder,

and I would gently say...

"Your ass if fired."

But that's so extreme.

I just keep hoping
I can figure out a way

to get him to shape up.

Yeah. I keep hoping N.W.A
will get back together,

but Dr. Dre just
keeps selling headphones.

Calvin, found your paper.

You didn't read it
in the bathroom, did you?

I'm gonna go
get you a dollar.

♪ Welcome to the block,
welcome to the neighborhood ♪

♪ Welcome to the hood.

Do you think
Calvin's right?

Should I fire Coach McCluskey?

Ooh, hold on. Uh, is this
one of those situations

where you really want
to hear what I think,

or you just want me
to support you?

I absolutely want to hear
what you think.

Okay, well, then...

I definitely think
you should fire him.

But he's been there for years!

But not before you give him
at least one more chance.

And make me look like
a weak leader?No.

I mean, yes.
I mean...

I mean, your hair looks great.

Dave, I'm serious.

This has been weighing
on me all day.

All right, look, I wish
that I could help you,

but this is a decision
that only you can make.

And whatever it is,
I know it's gonna

be the right one.

You're right.

I'm the boss.
It's my decision.

McCluskey has to go.

There.
I feel better already.

Are you talking about
Coach McCluskey?

He's the best.

Really?
You think so?

Yeah. He takes naps
and lets us watch movies.

One of them even showed a butt.

On the other hand, this
guy sounds pretty cool.

Pop, are you gonna
stand there all day

waiting on the paperboy?

If that's what
it takes.

I'm not moving a damn inch
till I give this kid

a piece of my mind.

Who wants pancakes?

Oh, I could eat.

Well, I'll take
some pancakes, too.

Oh, and I'll take
two years of back rent.

I'm...You're on lookout duty.

Yeah.

Oh, hey, Gemma.Hey.

Oh, hey.
It's 7:30 in the morning.

Is everything okay?

Everything's fine.

I just decided
Calvin was right.

I'm gonna fire
McCluskey today.

Ah, good for you.

You should've fired that fool
the second time his mother died.

Right, Calvin?

I'm sorry, I didn't
hear anything

after "Calvin was right."

It's just, I've never fired
anyone before, and I was hoping

maybe you could
give me some advice.

Oh, you came to
the right place.

Calvin loves
firing people.

Yep, it's true.
Pops once fired a dude

on the guy's wedding day.

And I was his best man.

So what's the best way to do it?

What you got to do is stay calm,

confident and
professional.

The last thing you want
to do is go personal.

Wrong.

Look, this dude has been
messing with your life, right?

Making you look bad.

You want to rip
his throat out.

And you want to do it
in front of people.

For example,

his wedding party.

Calvin!What?

Look, it sends a message.

And if it goes sideways,

knock the cake over
for a diversion.

Gemma, things are not
gonna go sideways.

Oh, it went sideways
back in the day,

when you got fired
from Pizza Hut.

That was different.

If Todd didn't want
his finger broken,

he shouldn't have been
pointing it in my face!

You getting all this
great advice, Gemma?

I think so.

Rip his throat out,
knock over a cake,

and don't point my finger
in his face.

Sounds like
you're good to go.

Hey, morning, Dad.

What are you
doing here, Marty?

Do I need a reason?

Okay, can't a son
just stop by

and show some love
to the two people

that gave him life?

Your mama made
your lunch again.

It's turkey
melt Tuesday.

I came out second, but
I'm first in her heart.

Oh, here he comes, right here.

Uh, here who comes?

That sorry-ass
paperboy.

I'm about to make him
cry harder than you did

when Malcolm told you
you were adopted.

That wasn't Malcolm, Dad.
That was you.

That does sound
like me, doesn't it?

Hold... Whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, slow down.

Hey, turn that bike around
and get back here.

I need to talk to you
right now.

Marty, I want you
to film this for YouTube.

I want to show the world
it's still okay to yell at kids.

All right, take that
helmet off, young man,

while I talk to you.

See, that's the problem--
y'all have no re...

...spect.

Sorry, sir.
What were you saying?

: Oh!

I... I was saying...
I was saying...

I was... I was saying...

I was saying you
are doing a great job.

Yes, you are.

Hey, so, keep up
the good work.

Thanks, mister. Got to
go finish my route.

Okay, you do that.

All right,
and put your helmet on.

All right, remember,
safety first.

And got it.

Erase that right now, boy.
Erase that, now.

Hey, man.
I don't have to listen to you.

You're not my father.

: You wanted
to see me, Johnson?

Yes, Coach McCluskey.
Please have a seat.

Mmm. You get at some
of this banana bread

from the
teachers' lounge?

Uh, no, I didn't.Oh, here.

Finish mine.
It's my third piece anyway.

That's very thoughtful of you.

Is there anything else?

Uh, yeah.
A lot else.

I've asked you to come in

because we've talked about
you being late,

and I've given you
several warnings.

And I've heard each
and every one of them,

which is why I made sure
to get back

on the right track.
And field.

But have you?

I mean, weren't you late
on Friday?

My alarm clock broke.

And then again yesterday?

Dog stuff.

This meeting?

I was getting you
the banana bread.

Look, I've given you more
than enough chances.

I'm sorry, but... I'm afraid
I'm gonna have to let you go.

What?
You're firing me? Why?

Literally everything
I just said.

Does the board of trustees
know about this?

Because I play golf
with half of them,

and I always
let them win.

Doesn't matter.

This is my decision to make,
and it's final.

Okay. Fine.

But can I say something
before I leave?

Go ahead.

You're a terrible principal.

Excuse me?

You heard me.

: You're a joke,
and everybody knows it.

The only reason why
you got this job

is because it
made them look good

to hire a woman.

Oh... and also...

this.

Yeah, well...

joke's on you,
'cause I'm still gonna eat this!

So?

How'd it go?

Great.
I sat him down,

I looked him
right in the eye,

and I did what
I had to do.

I even celebrated afterwards
with a little banana bread.

I'm so proud of you,
and so hoping

that you brought home
a little.

: Oh, Dave,
I feel so terrible.

O-Okay.

Okay. Okay.
It's okay.

Look... I wouldn't
have saved any for you, either.

Ooh, hey, Gemma, if
you don't get up soon,

you're gonna be late for work.

I'm not going in today.
I'm sick.

Really? Or are you just
pretending to be sick

because you're still upset about
what McCluskey said yesterday?

I'm sick.

See?

Okay.

This is not the way
to handle this.

Why not?
Grover fakes it.

And so did you when
Mission: Impossible 6came out.

That was a legitimate sick day,
because that movie was sick.

What if McCluskey's right?

What if the only reason
they did hire me

is because I'm a woman?

Maybe I'm not
tough enough.

Are you kidding?

Gemma, you've gotten
test scores up

and increased
parent participation.

If the Mission: Impossibleteam
needed a school principal,

they'd choose you.

If you chose
to accept it.

I appreciate you trying
to make me feel better,

but I'm worried everyone
thinks I'm a joke.

McCluskey only
said that

because you had
just fired him.

What'd you think he was
gonna do, give you a hug?

No, but if he needed one,
I would've given it to him.

Okay... this is what
we're gonna do.

We're gonna get up,
we're gonna take a shower,

we're gonna get dressed,

and we're gonna show up
to that school

with our head
held high.

Ugh, come on.Ugh, okay.

There we go.

That's the strong woman
I married.

You're not coming
out of there, are you?

GEMMA:
Nope.

Roast beef on rye.
See, that's a man's lunch.

Wait, no juice box?

Hey, Pop, since when do you read
the news on an iPad?

Since I still can't
find my newspaper.

Oh, so what'd you do,

lay into that little dude
so hard yesterday

you scared him off for good?

Yeah, Pop, tell him
all about the big beat-down.

I decided to handle things
a different way.

You know, be the bigger man.

You mean the only man.

You know, I'm starting
to feel a lot less bad

about taking your juice box.

Wait. So what's the deal, Pop?

Why couldn't you
lay down the law?

Well, the paperboy
turned out to be a papergirl.

Yeah, you should've
seen him, man.

Dad went from thug life
to hug life.

Wait, I get it.

You couldn't reprimand her
because she's a female.

Look, I don't want to make
a little girl cry.

I mean, what kind of monster
do you think I am?

I don't know. The kind that
would make his son cry

by telling him he was adopted.

But that was funny, though.

Pop, Pop.

Don't you see that
by treating her differently,

you're actually creating a
double-standard which is sexist?

Sexist?
Yep.

It's called "being a gentleman,"

which, I understand,
may be completely lost

on your generation.

I mean, when I
was your age,

we held ladies' doors,
we pulled out their chairs...

You made sure
they couldn't vote.

My man.

Let's just say
we're from two different times.

All right?
Back in the day,

women were women,
and men were men.

Mmm, red.

Hey, Tina.
Hi.

Can I ask you a question?

Gem is really beating herself up
about what happened at school.

She didn't even
go to work today.

Oh, my God. What happened?

Coach McCluskey told her
that the only reason

she got the job was
because she was a woman.

Typical.

Weak, little man threatened
by a woman in power.

Mm. It's Pizza Hut
all over again.

Well, I-I don't know why,

but for whatever reason,
she's believing this loser.

You men
just don't get it.

In the working world,

women are always made
to feel less than.

So, even if a jerk
says something that isn't true,

you can't help
but doubt yourself.

Just makes me want to snip
some sense into y'all.

Okay, well,
how can I fix this for her?

What... what, do I beat up
McCluskey?

Please, Dave,
that won't fix anything.

Oh, thank God,
'cause that guy's huge.

You know, Dave,
what you can do

is figure out a way
to remind her

of how strong
and capable she is,

and that she knows
what she's doing.

I mean, don't you do stuff
like this at your job?

Well, yeah. Sure, there are
aspects of corporate consulting

where I use team building
to motivate CEOs

and their employee...Right, right, right,
right, all of that.

You know what?
Actually...

I just got an idea.

Oh, Dave.
Dave, Dave, Dave.

You're not gonna show her
one of those silly

Mission: Impossiblemovies

that you're always
talking about, right?

I'm gonna come up
with another idea.

A rock-climbing gym?

You told me we were going
to get frozen yogurt.

And we will.

But first, I need to remind you
of your own strength.

Well, it's taking
a lot of strength

for me to not
freak out right now.

I was promised Froyo, Dave.

Look, Gemma, I know that you're
doubting yourself at work.

And when you're up on that wall,
you're probably gonna doubt

whether you can make it
to the top,

but once you do,

the next time
you doubt yourself,

you're gonna think back to this,
and you're gonna say,

"Damn, I have
an awesome husband."

Hey, guys.

Whoa, Calvin, you look great.

Rocking that harness.

Well, this harness
is chafing my rocks.

Wait. What are you
guys doing here?

Tina told me we were
getting frozen yogurt.

We will all go out
to frozen yogurt

right after Gemma conquers
this mountain.

Your treat.

Yes, it's my treat.

Dave, I really don't
feel like doing this.

Can we please just leave?

Gemma, this is going to work.
I promise.

But I don't think
I can do it.

Yes, you can, Gemma.

You're gonna get up there,

and you're gonna make
this wall your bitch.

I'm sorry, sweetie,
you'll understand

when you're making 70 cents
to a man's dollar.

Damn, look at all of this.

Oh, I am.

Your booty look good
in that thing, girl.

You ain't lying.

It's like a face-lift
for the butt.

I know what I'm getting
you for my birthday.

Okay, let's get this over with.

Where did Dave go?

I don't know.

I feel like Spider-Man
in this thing.

Really? 'Cause you look
more like Peter Pan.

Okay. All right.

I'm gonna attach this end
of the rope to your harness,

and the other end
is attached to mine.

Okay, so if you slip,

my body weight will prevent you
from falling.

Your body weight?

Please. You're built
like a cricket.

I'll have you know that crickets
are beloved in Asia,

both for their voices
and crunchy deliciousness.

Okay. Here I go.

All right.
Show 'em what you're made of.

All right, come on, Gemma,
you got this.

TINA:
Come on, Gemma. You go, Gemma!

Yeah, hurry up.

I'm starting to
lose circulation

in some very
important places.

I don't think I can reach
the next handhold.

Yes, you can. Do not give up
on yourself. Let's go.

I'm not. The exercise worked.

I'm powerful, I'm strong.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

I know that you can
make it to the top.

To show my faith in you,

I'm gonna unhook my safety line.

No. Dave! No!

Dave, what are you doing?

She could fall.
No, man.

She's not gonna fall.

She's pretty sure she is.

Gemma. Don't move.

I'm-I'm coming up to help.

Yeah, help her, baby.

Okay. Yeah, all right.

This is...

Oh. Whoa.

Ah. Okay.

On second thought, you're-you're
doing great up there.

Dave, hook her back in
before she falls.

She's fine.
She's not gonna fall, okay?

There's padding everywhere.

No one ever really gets hurt
in these places.

Oh, my God, it's broken.
I know it's broken.

Okay. I think
I've made my point.

I'm gonna hook you back in.TINA: We-we're coming.

Okay. I-I can't do it.
I'm coming down.

Oh, Dave, cut it out.CALVIN: Oh.

It wasn't me.

It was me.

Stop quitting on yourself,

or you're getting more
foam rocks to the butt.

Calvin, light her ass up.Oh.

What? Oh.

Come on, baby.Okay, guys, guys, guys.

Please, stop throwing rocks
at my wife.

W-We're just trying to help.

It's obvious she can't
do it by herself.

Hey. You don't know
what I can do.

This is for Coach McCluskey

and his stupid misogyny.

And this is how angry I am
for letting him get to me.

And this is for eating that
disgusting blob of banana bread.

You got this, Gemma!
Just one more!

: And this is
for anyone who thinks

I can't be a badass,
powerful woman

in this patriarchal society,

because I am!

I did it!Yeah, you did it!

That's my friend!
That's my friend!

I gotta admit, that little
white girl is gangsta.

All right, now, come on down.
Let's go get some Froyo.

Whoa!
Whoa!

Wha...?

O-Okay, you guys
can meet us there.

Dave, throw down
your wallet.

Ho-Ho-Ho-Ho-Hold on,
hold on.

Let me talk to you
for a minute.

Now, look.

I know I told you
you were doing a great job,

but the other day, I saw
how strong women can really be.

So that's why I have
to tell you the truth.

You are the worst paper-person
of all time.

I mean, like straight trash.

Okay...?

And treating you like a princess

is only holding you back
from your full potential.

Now, you need to
wake up earlier,

deliver the
paper on time,

and for God's sake,
work on your damn aim.

I mean, I'm only saying this
because I'm a feminist.

Okay, sorry. I'll try harder.

Good. All right.

Oh, damn, she forgot
to give me my paper.

Oh, don't...

Damn, good arm.

I should've adopted her.
