[Instrumental Music]

Hey Lisa, What's goin' on?

A just looking at Ebony's
college acceptance letters.

Tryin' to decide on the perfect
school for her.

Alright, have you narrowed it
down to any top choices?

I personally think local
schools, like Baybrook
University and

Valley Hill are really great
choices.

- Oh.
- But Wexley. Wexley's probably
more her speed.

Oh, the one that's right up
the street?

Yeah, I mean it's walking
distance.

So I'll be able to take her
bagged lunchies and

and give her an extra set of
clothes each week,

and also wash her favorite
little blankie.

[Audience laughter]

She's goin' off to college, not
preschool.

Besides, didn't she express that
she wants to go to an out of
state college?

Maybe once or twice, but since
when did we start carrying about
Ebony's opinion?

Please, now let the girl decide
on her own.

Decisions like this are very
important in life.

You think if we decided not to
have kids early,

I would have
given up on my dream to become a
rapper?

L Tone Loco was about to blow!

You had a better chance of
winning the lottery.

[Audience laughter]

I'm just sayin'.

Whatever school Ebony decides
to go, we need to be there for
her.

Or with her!

I read about this one program at
Baybrook that allows Moms to go
to the

dorms for a week.

You know just in case the
daughters get homesick.

I really think I might do that.

We ain't white.

I know Tony. It's just hard to
accept that our little

girl is growin' up so fast.

You know and the fact that she
might be miles and miles away. I
mean it just hasn't clicked.

Look, she'll never be too far.

She'll always be either a
FaceTime call or a plane ride
away.

Or you know what? It'll be
Thanksgiving. She'll be

buried in her cellphone gettin'
on our nerves again.

I guess you're right, Tony.

I still think Wexley is the best
choice.

I'm not sayin' I'm gonna be on
campus,

but if she needs me I will...

[Audience laughter]

I'll be right here.

And if she decides to go
somewhere else, I'll be just as
okay with it.

Good to hear.

- So, the mother/daughter dorm
program.
- Out of the question!

[Theme music]

* Woke up and my wife said
to me *

* The bill collectors want
their fees *

* The kids keep talkin'
back to me *

* Family Time

* Family Time. Family Time

* Family Time. Waa aah woa
oah oah oah yeah *

[Instrumental Music]

[Gasps] Ooh, girl.

Davonte just posted a sneak peak
of what he's wearing to prom.

- Oop.
- He is looking fine. Ooh!

You know light skins in suede
suits are my weakness.

Girl I know, and that's exactly
why I'm inviting him to my

pre-prom party.

Wait...you're having one here?

Dang, you're lucky. My parents
won't let me.

Yeah, my parents weren't feeling
it either until I told them I
was running for prom queen.

Plus I'm hoping it'll help me
get some votes.

Prom queen?

[Scoffs] Wait, since when do you
care about the bougie glitz and
glam of a prom queen?

I thought you were just fine
with bein' a prom peasant like
the rest of us.

I mean I was a first but I feel
like it'll be a

good opportunity to make a name
for myself before we graduate.

Oh girl, you don't want that.

The girls who win prom queen
never make names for themselves.

People make names for them.

What do you mean?

Well last year, Tight Weave
Theresa won. The year before
that

curly haired Corine won, and
then the year before that

beach body Becky won.

You don't want to be easy breezy
Ebony.

Your reputation goes down as
soon as you win that crown.

I don't know. Sounds like people
are just jealous to me.

Besides, all of those girls were
just bullies who resorted to

petty tactics in order to win.

You do have a point there.

I heard that Tight Weaved
Theresa said that she would take
everyone's man if they didn't

vote for her.

Wow, well that definitely won't
be me. Besides,

I'm doin' it for fun. If I win,
I win. If I loose, I loose.

Well, when you say it like that,
it doesn't sound so bad.

Alright, I'll help you with your
campaign and what not.

See, I knew my bestie would. And
if I do win,

I'll be sure to mention you in
my speech.

Forget a speech. If you win, I
need that first dance with
Davonte.

Everyone knows he's gonna be
prom king.

Ha! Ooh,

I should start looking for a
suede dress to match my man's.

[Audience laughter]

[Instrumental Music]

[Audience laughter]

Devin, what you doin' in my
room?

Ah I was just lookin' for some
ointment

for a bruise I got playin'
basketball.

You don't even play basketball,

or watch it. You tried out 5
times and ended up the team
mascot.

Yes I do play basketball.

Last week I messed around and
got a triple double.

Boy, the only triple doubles you
order come with pickles and side
of mammal fries.

What's your favorite team?

Ah...hah,

the Nebraska ah...

The Timberwizards.

I rest my case.

Now Devin, tell me how you
really hurt yourself?

I'm not buyin' this basketball
story.

Did I say basketball? I meant
boxing.

You know me and Ross was
sparrin' in his backyard, and he
threw a haymaker

left a nasty bruise on my arm.

- Oah, did you hurt yourself?
Let me just, let me see.
- Aah!

I put some frozen peas on it.

You know, wrapped some gauze. It
doesn't even hurt that bad.

- Huh, okay that's fine. Let me
just take a look at the bruise.
- Ow!

I thought you said it didn't
hurt, Devin.

[Scoffs] It doesn't.

I was sayin', "Ow," you know,
like how Bardi C does every 10
seconds?

Oooow!
[Audience laughter]

Don't lie to me.

Okay well if I show you, you
promise you won't get mad?

I promise.

[Sighs]

Oh my! What duh what?

- Hell to the no!
- You said you weren't gonna get
mad.

Ah I'm not bad. I am freakin'
furious!

A tattoo, Devin?

An infected one at that.

I know, Mom. I'm sorry.

But it won't look as bad in a
couple a days. It'll heal.

Heal into what? Because right
now it looks like a bootleg
fraternity brand.

[Audience laughter]

Where'd you even get this done?

In Ross's garage. His uncle
Tyrone offered to do it.

And I let him since he used to
be a professional tattoo artist.

Well...in jail.

What?

Devin, you got to get this
removed.

You better call Tyrone.

Call him!

But you can't use my phone
though.

I can't call him either way.

- He only uses burner phones.
- Oh, boy. Wow.

Unbelievable, Devin.

This is really unbelievable.
Wait till I tell your father.

Oh Mom, please don't tell him.
He'll kill me.

Not if that cheap-ass tattoo
doesn't do it first.

[Audience laughter]

Well...I'll tell him. But it has
to be on my own time like

maybe when I get married, have a
few children, give him some
grand-babies.

[Audience laughter]

Boy, what is that supposed to
even be anyway?

My initials. DS for Devin
Stallworth.

- More like dumb--
- Mom!

[Instrumental Music]

Wow, this looks so amazing.

Oh, only the best for my baby
girl. You know that.

Prom queen is yours for the
takin', Ebony.

[Door opens]

Hello, royal family.

[Audience laughter]

Hm, the princess...

has arrived.

Hey there, Sleepin' Ugly.

[Audience laughter]

You can refer to me as the
duchess of success,

thank you very much.

You look more like the duchess
of Pepto-Bismol.

You're welcome.

Lori, why are you late? You were
supposed to help us with Ebony's
campaign.

Oh darling...a queen is never
late.

She simply knows that everyone
else....

is early.

Wow, nice Tiara, Aunt Lori.

Did you win a prom queen back in
high school?

Yeah back in the day I did.

Yeah, more like the Stone Ages.

Look, nobody asked you, Nia
Wrong.

You're just mad because when
you ran

- ...against a...Jeronica
Williams,
- Ugh.

- Jeronica Williams!,
- Here we go.

you only got one vote.

And it was you [Laughter]

While I on the other hand,

took the finest brotha in the
hood

to my prom. He was prom king.

Does the name um Chico De Barge
ring any bells?

Wait, you went to prom with
Chico De Barge?

No!

I went with his cousin Rico, and
you know it.

Rico was just always a little
insecure about

bein' the chocolate De Barge.

That's why it hurt so bad when I

found out about his passing.

Oh no. He passed away?

Oh hell, no. He bleached his
skin and start passin' for
Caucasian.

[Audience laughter]

Now he identifies himself as

Trans-Racial.

You sure knew how to pick 'em
back in the day.

Don't be mad cause the only
people who picked you was the
boys' basketball team.

Well at least they weren't
callin' me Cicely Bison!

And wha only because I have no
neck and broad

- ...shoulders. And I used to go
like this...
- You don't have a neck or

and like knock people down.

- Cause I still confuse ?--
- Yes, and that's why you were
in the slow classes,

- I wasn't slow. I...
- because nobody knew what was
wrong with you.

- in class I was, hey!
- [Indistinct] They were
confused.

Both of your prom dates are
gone,

The glory days are gone. It's
really it's no point in arguing,
okay.

Aren't we here for Ebony, your
niece?

- Yes.
- Well everyone is here except
Alyssa, which is...

so weird because I texted her
earlier to see if she was
coming,

and she never responded.

Hey Eb, sorry I'm late.

I had to print out this huge
poster at Kinky's.

Oh no, it's okay. Thanks for
making the poster for me.

Poster for you?

Nah, girl. This one's for me.

[Audience gasps]

Wait, I didn't know you was
runnin'.

I never said I wasn't.

Plus, I was put on the ballot as
a last-minute nominee.

And once she convinced me that
there were perks to becoming
prom queen, I figured

why not give it a shot?

Okay, now come on, Alyssa.

You know Ebony's been wanting
this.

You gotta support your girl.

I do support her,

but I ain't votin' for her.

I mean's what's a big win
without a little competition,
right?

Oh you about to win big with
this little ass-whoopin' I'm
about to give you.

Okay. Go ahead, do it.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, you run.
- Stop her!
- Let me through. Get her.

- Get back.
- Stop her!

[Instrumental Music]

- Mmm.
- Oh hey, Devin.

Oh hey, Dad.

What you up to?

Oh just about to go to Ross's
house to play a little Fort
Night.

What's up witchu?

Oh we are about to clean these
rain gutters. Come on.

How long is that gonna take?

As long as it takes. Now bring
your ass, boy.

Gotta clean the rain gutters.

A first of all, you might wanna
take off that hoodie. It's way
too hot out here for all that.

When you're as cool as I am,

you never get hot.

I thought I was about to have a
heat stroke if you don't take
off that hoodie.

I'm good, Dad. I promise.

Wait a minute. Come here.

[Audience laughter]

Is that my hoodie you've got on?

Yeah.

Now what did I tell you about
goin' into my closet?

That if I ever came out, I
better not have Mom heels on.

No! That if you wear my clothes,
you better ask me first.

Now take my damn hoodie off,
Devin.

Ah but but I don't have a shirt
on underneath.

So? You ain't a woman. Take the
hoodie off.

Mm hmm.

You know what?

I will go take off your hoodie.
I'll put it right back in your
closet.

But I'm just gonna change into a
T-shirt. You know I'll be right
back.

[Instrumental Music]

Miss Teen Vogue. I'm talkin'
about myself, not you.

- [Lori laughs]
- [Rachel] You wanna go low for
the good angles.

Ooh, boomerang.

- [Lori] Boomerang
- [Rachel] Get the door.

What, what do I look like?

The help.

[Upbeat Instrumental Music]

Oh, it's you.

You look like Cinderella had a
very very broke mother.

Girl, Oooooh,

don't test me. Not today,

not while I'm lookin' like Molly
Ringwald, Pretty in Pink.

[Audience laughter]

Alright, everybody, it's time
for my daughter Ebony,

AKA your future prom queen,

to make her grand entrance.

So would everyone please turn
your attention to the stairs?

Cue the music, baby.

What does she want me to play?

A just pick any song. Pick any
song.

Is Bounced up Bootie in a circle
okay?

A how bout I have your dad
bounce his butt off your bootie
in a circle?

Okay.

[Gasping]

[Cheering and applause]

[Hip-hop Music]

- [Alyssa clears throat]
- Hey, Alyssa.

Oh hey, Ebony. You look good,
girl. Where'd you get your
dress...

mom's closet?

Online actually. Where'd you get
yours, Swap meet?

Valenciago, actually.

Wow, it looks like your prom
party is turning out to be a
huge success.

Yeah, it is. Well you wouldn't
be so surprised if you were

here earlier helping me set up
like we planned.

Well in case you haven't
noticed, I've been...

pretty busy myself.

Hm well, judging by the fact
that Davonte's your date and
barely even knows you,

yeah. That's obvious.

[Audience gasps]

- Ah, you wanna take some pics?
- Yeah.

[Audience laughter]

[Audience gasps]
Oh woa woa woa.

[Ebony faintly squeals]

She is messy!

[Music sting]

[Instrumental Music]

Ooh did you see what she just
did? I shoulda kissed him first.

No, no okay, you kept it classy
and that little stunt

was nothin' but trashy.

I know, Mom but maybe bein' a
little trashy is what it takes
to win.

I mean I don't know, maybe I'm
just not cut out for this,

unless I wanted to make out with
Davonte and to sway them in my
favor.

I'm sorry, what? You wanted to
make out with who in the back of
whose van?

Okay a which one of these little
negroes about to catch these
hands?

- Hmm? Speak up!
- No, no no no no.

She's saying she doesn't want to
make out with anyone. That's
what she's saying.

Oh. Okay, good. Cause daddy is
entirely too good lookin' to go
to prison.

Now a what are you doin' here in
this kitchen?

Why aren't you out there with
your little classmates and your
best friend?

Make that ex best friend. A best
friend wouldn't sabotage me

in front of everyone in order to
make prom queen.

[Sighs] what, is that what this
is about?

A silly little prom queen
competition. I say let her have
it.

You mean let her win? Why?

[Sighs] Because it doesn't mean
anything.

Ah being prom queen does not
define who you are.

It doesn't?

Of course not.

If it did, your Aunt Lori would
be datin' princes instead of
kissin' frogs.

Okay, now your father is right.

You know, you just gotta be the
bigger person.

It's the only way Alyssa's gonna
realize how wrong she was.

I guess you guys are right.
Thanks, Mom. Thanks, Dad.

You got it. And if you ever come
to blows with her,

just remember what Daddy taught
ya.

Slip the jab, counter with the
upper cut.

Finish her! You know what I'm
talkin' about. Come on, show me
the two punch.

- Two toh-- mm hm. There it is.
There is is.
- Oh!

- There is is. We'll work on it
more later.
- [Ebony laughs]

- It's pretty good though.
That's dope.
- When did daddy teach you that?

Oh no, we diggin' it in. We
diggin' it in.

- Nobody drives a van though,
for real though. Right?
- Wow.

[Instrumental Music]

Hey, Dev.

Hey, Dad. I know. I know, Scrub
the dishes, take out the trash.

But I haven't finished stackin'
the plates up, hores devores.

[Audience laughter]

A first of all, it's hors
d'oeuvres.

And second, I was just gonna
invite you to come fishin' with
me and the fellas this weekend.

Oh that sounds cool. I'm down.

- Alright, I'll let 'em know.
- Ow!

Devin, did you get the alcohol?

Eh ah...Devin, what alcohol is
she referrin' to?

Ah. umm...

Oh, great. You're showin' him.

Showin' me what?

Alright, don't you try that
Wendy Williams pass out. That
ain't gonna work with me.

Well...since I've been put on
the spot,

I guess I'm forced to show you.

But before I do, you promise you
won't get mad?

Mmm, can't guarantee that, son.

I'm a black man with a short
fuse so there's a 50% chance

that I may or may not have my
foot up your ass.

[Audience laughter]

What's that?

Ah!

Got a tattoo. Hmm.

[Audience laughter]

- Tony.
- Hold on. Let me holler at you
real quick. Let's talk about it.

- Tony. Tony.
- We can talk about it. I'll
wait. I'll wait.

[Instrumental Music]

A tattoo. A damn tattoo, Devin.
Really?

You know those things are
addictive.

Next thing you know, you'll have
a full sleeve full of mumble rap
lyrics,

and pictures of naked women.
Then you'll get a neck tat of
your ex-girlfriend

followed by a teardrop for
killin' somebody for makin' fun
of how dumb you look.

Okay, calm down.

Calm down, Lisa? How can I calm
down?

The boy got his initials carved
into him like a damn tree. Why
would you do that, Devin?

Why would you do that?

Because I wanted it.

Because you wanted it? Because
you wanted it!

I wanted Tyra Banks, but I
didn't get her.

But if you did, wouldn't you be
happy?

Child, yes. No, no. No.
Absolutely not.

No I mean, it's okay, because I
wanted Wesley Snipes,

but I got a butter knife, not a
blade. You know?

But what I think Devin is tryin'
to say is that since he's
legally an adult,

his body/his choice.

Whose side are you on, Lisa?

It's not about sides, Tony. It's
about accepting one's decisions.

Trust me, I was mad about it,
and I think it's normal

to be critical It's just
important we're not
hypocritical.

What's that supposed to mean?

Oh don't pretend like you didn't
get your ears pierced at 16 and
had that swollen

earlobe that almost resulted in
a keloid.

What? Is that true?

There may be some truth to that,
but that's not exactly...

alright, fine. Yes, I did that.

There wa there was a time in my
youth

when I felt the need to act out
and express myself.

Mm hm. Like father, like son.

I see your point, Lisa.

Alright son, I'm sorry for
yelling.

But that's the only way I know
how to express myself when I
feel blind-sighted.

Now if you wanted to get a
tattoo,

you coulda told me and
we woulda went down and got
matching ones.

Really, you would do that?

Hell, no. My body's a temple.

But I would have respected you
more if you told me like that.

Touché. Well, I'm really really
sorry Dad, for goin' in secret.

I'll be sure to tell you next
time I go when I get "Fear, God"
tatted on my eyelids.

[Audience laughter]

I'm just kidding, but I do
promise to communicate with the
both of you.

- I love you, son.
- Love you too, Dad.

Lisa that boy gets another
tattoo,

I'm a be makin' moonshine out of
a prison toilet. You know what
I'm talkin' about?

[Audience laughter]

[Instrumental Music]

[Knocking]

- Hey.
- What do you want?

I'm ah, can we talk?

Please?

You're here, so talk.

Look Eb, I'm really sorry, okay?
I was completely out of line

for running for prom queen,
knowing that you wanted it way
more.

What I did was selfish.

- True.
- Immature.

Mm hm. Yep. Don't forget cruel.

[Audience laughter]
Dang, I was cruel too?

Okay, you're right. It was
cruel.

Look Ebony, I just got so caught
up in wanting to be prom queen,

that I completely lost sight of
what I truly value the most.

Our friendship.

I'm really sorry, Eb.

Okay. It's okay. I forgive you.

I just hope Davonte forgives us
for using him as a prop in all
these photos.

Girl that boy is the least of my
concerns.

Once I found out that he was one
of Tight Weave Theresa's exes,

girl, I bounced faster than a
deadbeat father's child support
check.

Wow, that's insane.

But to be completely honest, I'm
actually glad Porscha
Phillips won.

Ah her weave was a little
crooked but

She still slayed.

Okay, you petty.

And that's why you love me.

Still friends?

Still friends.

[Music sting]
[Laughter]

[Instrumental Music]

Tony, what you in deep thought
about?

Why your shirt matches the
blanket?

[Audience laughter]

Yeah I'm just thinkin', did we
do a good job raisin' our kids?

What do you mean?

I mean did we do what we said we
were gonna do before we had
kids?

I mean I think so.

You know, you're a good dad. I'm
a good mom, and we fine.

- Baby, we fine.
- I know that's right.

Besides, neither one of us
turned out to be what

our parents would've
wanted, you know?

And I'm actually pretty proud
of that.

Oh I'm definitely not what my
mother thought I was gonna be.

She thought I'd go off to
college and come back wearin' a

hunter sports coat with patches
on the elbows

and a corn cob pipe.

Yeah, and if I would've done
what my father wanted me to do,

I would took that lotto

ticket and moved the kids to
North Carolina.

[Audience laughter]

[Instrumental Music]
