[Dog barking]

Hey, what are you doing there?

Don't shoot! Oh, don't shoot!

Go ahead. Take
anything you want.

Anything at all.

[Panting]

- hey, roc.
- Hey, Joey.

How's pop doing?

That burglar really scared him.

He's not still white, is he?

No, he was beige about noon.

I expect him to be back
to black about dinner time.

You know, I'm really bothered
about this whole burglary thing.

Yeah, yeah, me too.
Hey, nothing was taken.

Yeah, I know.
I'm a little insulted.

Roc, the guy dropped
his wallet outside.

- He left you money.
- Yeah, 40 bucks. So what?

That don't make
up for the hurt I feel.

What are you doing there?
Polishing your trumpet?

- Mm-hmm.
- You got a job?

Roc, ain't called a
job, it's called a gig.

- Alright. You got a gig?
- No. I can't gig.

- With my split lip.
- Why not?

If I try to play
before it's healed

it can ruin it for life.

Then where would I be?

I don't wanna be a burden,
roc. I'm thinkin' of you.

Joey, how come whenever
you think about me

it costs me money?

Beats me.

But, uh, speaking of
costing you money..

Uh, I kinda got myself
in a no-win situation.

What do you mean?

I bet a $1,000 on a
horse and, uh, he no win.

A $1,000!

Uh, yeah, yeah. Keep up.

And, uh... And there
are these guys, uh

they kinda like the
horses representatives...

- You mean bookies?
- Tomato-tomahto, yeah..

They want the $1000 in two
weeks or they gonna break my legs.

So what? You never leave the
house. Why do you need legs for?

Okay, man, that hurt
and-and I-I deserve that, but...

Knock it off. Knock it
off. I know your ways.

Don't try to guilt me
into helping you out.

No way. Not his time, Joey.

I mean, stumpy.

Okay, roc, I
understand. I mean..

You've been generous with me.

I'm not gonna ask you for money.

I'm merely explaining
the situation to you. See?

I tried to come up with
the money or the places

and you were kinda
like my last resort.

But-but I'm not
gonna ask you for it.

- Good.
- Come on, roc.

- Let me have that money.
- No, Joey. No.

- No way. No.
- Okay, okay, alright.

I understand. I understand.
I knew you were a long shot.

That's why I got my horn out.

- I'm gonna sell it.
- Your horn?

- Mm-hmm.
- What's that worth?

Oh... one leg.

[Chuckling] I knew
this time was coming.

What time is that, roc?

A time you'd be
in so much trouble

I'd have to get you a job at
the sanitation department.

I was hoping this would
come closer to your birthday.

Be kind of a present.

Thanks, roc. Just
get me a tie, will you?

Do you know how
hard it is to get

into the department
of sanitation?

You got to have connections.

They just don't let anybody in.

Gee, roc, i'm-I'm all
choked up about this.

I thought you would be
touched. When can you start?

How about when
hell freezes over, roc?

I ain't picking up no garbage
off no truck. I'm a musician.

We ain't talking about picking
up no garbage off no truck.

You can't waltz in and
grab one of the good jobs.

There's an opening at the
central incinerator, Joey.

It'll do you good to
learn to appreciate

the value of a dollar.

Roc, I appreciate
the value of a dollar.

I'd appreciate if you
give me a $1,000.

I think you should see how
hard it is for me to make a $1000.

I hear you bitch about it
every day. I don't need to see it.

- I trust you.
- Okay. This is going nowhere.

Go ahead. Hock your horn.

You probably couldn't
handle the job anyway.

- Yeah, you right.
- What was I thinking?

You know, I would've bet that
you couldn't have even lasted

two weeks on that job.

W-What was that, roc?

I'd bet you couldn't
last two weeks.

See, that's really low.

I'm calling 'em like I see 'em.

No, no. I mean, throwing
a wager in my face.

- I can't resist a bet.
- I knew that. I knew that.

You saying you'll give me
a $1,000 if I last two weeks?

That's right, and you
can keep your salary.

Alright, roc, I'm a desperate
man. What can I do?

- It's a bet, it's a bet.
- It's a bet, it's a bet.

Now there's one thing
I don't understand now.

You bet me a $1000 I can't
last two weeks on this job.

If I win, I get a $1,000
plus two weeks' salary.

What do you get if you win?

- I ain't worked that out yet.
- Okay.

- Daddy, now, now, take it easy.
- 'I'm fine.'

how are you feeling, pop?

Ashamed.

Oh, I let you folks down.

Stood there like a petrified
old man afraid of his own self.

Oh. Come on, pop.
That's not you fault.

The guy had a gun.

How did you know your
life wasn't in danger?

You're not to blame.

You're right.

How many times I told you to get

a good security
system in this house?

A man ain't safe in
his own home anymore.

Huh.

Thanks, son. I feel better now.

Maybe we should be
more security conscious.

After all, there've
been several break-ins

in this neighborhood lately.

Yeah, and we can't count
on the police for anything.

What do you mean, daddy?

Son, what kind of picture
I got to paint for you?

We're black folks living
in a black neighborhood.

The police ain't in
no hurry to protect us.

Now, if we was in a
white neighborhood

the police would've been here
in a minute and 14 seconds.

But do you know how long
it took the police to get here

from the time I
called last night?

- No, daddy.
- I don't know. How long, pop?

[Doorbell ringing]

I'll get that.

You reported a burglary?

♪ Whoa whoa oh-ah

[laughing]

Hi, baby. How you doing?

I'm great. Couldn't be better.

Oh, that's what I
love about you, roc.

You always in such a great mood.

Eleanor, it's all
in your attitude.

Some people look at a can of
garbage and see it as half full.

- I see it as half empty.
- My man!

[Both] Mmm.

- Joey, back yet?
- Not yet.

You beat him home
every night this week.

Why can't you just admit
you were wrong about him?

Yeah, okay, I admit it.

But, you know,
between you and me

I'm pretty proud
of the little guy.

Look here, Eleanor.
I had this made up.

"Emerson & Emerson
waste management."

What's that for, roc?

Oh, Eleanor, I know
it's a dream right now

but someday, if Joey
keeps working hard like he is

maybe we can go
into business together.

'I mean, this
could be a reality.'

we could start off with
one truck and slowly expand

and maybe someday
have a fleet of trucks.

Oh, Eleanor, do you
realize what it would be like

to stand tall and
look all around

and see nothing but
garbage and it's all your own?

Yeah, baby, I sure do.

Ah. But that's
not the best part.

Hmm, I've even
come up with a slogan.

"We won't treat your
garbage like trash."

Oh, it's beautiful, roc,
and I think it's wonderful

that you're so
excited about Joey.

Oh, you know,
Eleanor, I have to admit.

This has worked out pretty well.

I mean, I've got to give
Joey the $1,000 anyway.

I mean, he's my brother. I
don't wanna see him hurt.

But this is much better!

Look at all the doors
I've opened up for him.

He'll be a better man for it.

- Oh!
- Hey, Joey!

- Hey, Joey.
- Oh, Eleanor.

Roc, is that you? Come
over here in the light.

- Aw, poor baby!
- Of course..

- Come lie down here.
- Yeah, put your feet up.

Man, roc, I don't know
how you do it, man.

Ah. All the liftin'
and carryin', man.

I've only been at it a week and
I already feel like quasimodo.

[Laughing] Oh, Joey, you've
been shoveling that stuff

without bending your knees.

Uh-huh.

Rookie mistake.

- Am I not gonna walk like you?
- No, you'll be fine.

Just takes a couple of weeks

for the muscles to
snap back to normal.

That's a pleasant thought.

Hey, but I'll make it through.

After all, I only
got one week left.

- You didn't think I'd make it?
- I really didn't.

Oh. Man, you must
be pretty proud of me.

Roc's real proud of
you, Joey. We all are.

Well, that's great. That..

Oh, man, that means a lot to me.

If you folks would excuse
me, I think I'll lie here and die.

No, no, don't die here now.

Well, I would die upstairs
in my own bed, but..

Ouch, I don't think I
can make it up the stairs.

- Could you help me up, roc?
- Ah, sure.

[Joey grunts]

No, I-I-I meant..

Help me up.

Okay.

- Isn't it funny?
- What's that?

Here I was worried about
somebody breaking my legs

and I wind up breaking
my back. When will I learn?

Well, it's about time I got
over to Clarence's house, son.

You sure you don't wanna come?

No, pop. I'm hopin'
I'll run into Joey.

This being the end of
his two weeks and all

I thought we'd have
a little celebration.

I've got his $1,000
right here in my pocket.

Oh, that's real
nice of you, roc.

What you did for Joey,
you know, lookin' out for him.

You don't know how proud I am

to have two sons
who are garbagemen.

Well, I am proud of you, pop.

That's a responsible
thing you guys are doing.

Forming a neighborhood
watch to keep our streets safe.

Yeah, about time we took

the streets back
from the criminals.

We even got an
ex-marine teachin' us

hand-to-hand combat.

The way I figure it, by
the time we're through

we'll be able to wax
any two-bit young punk

that steps on our toe.
I'll see you, son. Peace.

What you got there, pop?

Oh, these are just
some visual aids

some instructional videos
we're gonna take a look at tonight.

Whoa! "Death wish." Ha-ha-ha!

"The enforcer."

Uh-oh! "Vigilanteforce."

"Biker chicks and chaps."

"Biker chicks and chaps?"

That's for later.

- It's Clarence's birthday.
- Oh.

- Hey, roc!
- 'Hey, al! How's it going?'

alright, man.

Since your brother Joey
started working with us.

He's doin' a real good job, huh?

Oh, yeah, he's a real
good worker, man.

The kid's goin' places, roc.

How do you emersons do it?

I guess there's
garbage in our blood.

It's great to get some good
news about my brother for once.

I can't waitto tell him
how proud I am of him.

Well, here's your chance.

What do you mean?

He's right over there.

Where?

Right there.

Hey, Joey, over here.

Here's your brother.

He's a brother, but
he ain't mybrother.

It's just so hard to believe.

Joey would actually go out
and pay somebody to do his job.

I should've known, Joey
ain't nothing but a lying cheat!

Now, roc, you
gotta hear his side

of the story. Let
him explain himself.

Why bother, Eleanor?
He's only gonna lie to me.

I mean, my own brother going out

and doing something
like this to me.

- I feel like a big jerk.
- 'Cause you believed in him.

Yeah. And 'cause I spent a
lot of money on that t-shirt.

You know how much it
cost to print up just one?

You only get 'em cheap
if you buy 'em in volume.

- Pop, why are you home early?
- Daddy, what happened to you?

Oh, all I can say is no
more Mr. Concerned citizen.

I've had it with this
neighborhood watch thing.

- A man could get killed.
- Oh, what happened, pop?

Oh, after our meetin'
we went on patrol.

I was making a routine
check on Mrs. Hollis' house.

- And you caught someone?
- No!

The foolish old woman
threw a steam iron at my head.

Luckily, I got the reflexes
of a cat. It only grazed me.

Well, why would she
do a thing like that?

Oh, I guess I was
passing by her window

where she was changing
into her nightgown.

And she accused
me of peeping on her.

But all I was doing was
protecting her valuables.

Now you go on
upstairs, clean that up

and put a band-aid on it.

Okay, Eleanor.

Besides, I caught
a glimpse of her.

And let me tell you, her
valuables were gone years ago.

Here comes Joey. You just
wait till I get my hands on him.

I'll teach him to
make a fool outta me.

I think he already
knows how, roc.

- Oh, thanks, Eleanor.
- I'm just kidding.

Baby, you've got to stay cool.

Don't fly off the handle
like you usually do.

- You know your temper...
- Of course, I know my temper!

See, roc? You're
losing your temper

just talking about
losing your temper.

Oh, I'm sorry, baby. I forget
about my temper sometimes.

Alright, be cool.

Oh, hey. Oh, man, roc.

Well, you were right, man.

Those muscles
finally snapped back.

Unfortunately, they're
in my neck now.

Would you like me to
massage them for you, Joey?

Yeah, yeah. Would you,
roc? That'd be nice. Thank you.

Oh! Ah, man! Ah, what a day..

Roc, if I didn't move, I
thought you're tryna kill me.

I could kill you. I met Mitch.

I know about this scam
you've been pullin'!

How could you do it?
How could you do it?

I put out a flier on a
market bulletin board.

- Mitch was the first to answer.
- Oh! Low-life lying cheat!

You don't even know Mitch.

- I'm talking about you!
- Oh. Right, right.

You gotta be fair about this.
You already knew all about me.

Why are you mad at me if I
lived up to your expectations?

- I was hoping you'd change.
- Tomorrow. I promise.

Roc, these bookies think
they're getting their money tonight.

- That ain't my problem.
- Roc, I know you're upset.

And I'm sorry.

Roc, I'm not like you. I
can't work no 9:00 to 5:00 job.

Save up a dollar here and there.

I'm the kinda guy who's
gotta make money fast.

Speaking of which,
can I have a $1,000?

You actually think I'm
gonna give it to you?

Do you believe him, Eleanor?

He actually thinks I'm dumb
enough to pay him $1,000!

Joey Emerson!

- You mad, are you?
- No!

- Roc, a bet's a bet. I won it.
- 'You didn't win it.'

I bet you $1,000
that you couldn't last

two weeks on that
job. Not the guy Mitch.

You didn't earn it,
you didn't win the bet!

You're right. You give Mitch
$1,000, he'll pay the bookies.

- Joey, I will...
- Seriously. They gonna bust..

- No, Joey, no, no, no!
- Okay, okay, okay, roc.

I'm not going to beg you,
okay? It's the last time I'll ask you.

Roc, please give me
that money. Please.

[Knocking on door]

Roc-roc, they-they're here.
Y-Y-You gotta help me.

Joey, I can't help you.

You got yourself into
this, get yourself out.

- Roc honey, please.
- No, Eleanor.

This is between me and
my brother, the cheat.

We're looking for Joey Emerson.

Joey, your friends are here.

Well, look who they sent.

- Hi, Dennis.
- Hi, Joey.

Toni g. Asked me to stop
by and pick up his money.

Uh, y-yeah, about that, uh...

Joey, maybe we'd
better talk outside.

I don't wanna disturb
your lovely family.

No, that's-that's
okay. Roc-roc, roc.

By the way, I'm Dennis.
Nice to meet you folks.

Roc, you gotta stop this!

It's Joey's problem
now, Eleanor.

Roc, please just give 'em the
money. They're gonna hurt him.

Oh, Eleanor, I know
these kinda guys.

They're just gonna scare him.

Look, see? He's scared, look.

[Screams]

Hey, wait a minute.
Hold it. Wait.

I'll pay you the money. Come on
now. Now put him down, please.

Thanks. You want
a receipt for that?

- Oh, yeah. Um, uh..
- I was only kidding.

See you around, Joey.

Uh, okay. Take care now, Dennis.

Look, roc, I..

I don't know how to thank you.

I know what a burden I must be.

I know you got
dreams about making

a better life for
you and Eleanor.

But you got pop holding one leg

and me grabbing onto the other.

Must be a pretty heavy
weight dragging you down.

Roc, you may not
believe this but, uh..

I feel bad about what I did.

- I feel really bad.
- Get out.

- What's that?
- I said get outta my house.

Roc, I don't think you
heard me, I said I feel bad.

I don't think you
heard. I said get out.

Roc, look, I know how
you feelin', but you..

- Alright, forget it.
- No, go ahead and say it.

Why don't you say what
you really wanna say?

Alright, man. Roc.
You should've known.

I'm a musician.
That's what I do.

I'm not a garbageman, you are.

I may be a garbageman,
but you're trash!

You lied to me! You
cost me a $1,000!

You made me carry you upstairs.

- You made a damn fool outta me.
- What's all the ruckus about?

Joey lied to me, pop.

He hired someone to work
for him these last two weeks

in order to win that
bet. Do you believe that?

Did you really do that, son?

Yeah, daddy.

That's a nasty thing to do.

But damned ingenious.

Why can't you be more like Joey?

Stop it. Stop it, pop. Ain't
nobody should be like me.

I'm a loser. I had to run
back and live with my brother

'cause I can't
take care of myself.

I'm ashamed of myself.

I guess because of that
shame I do some crazy things.

Look, roc, I don't blame
you for throwing me out.

Actually, I-I thought
you'd throw me out sooner.

Hey, I'm outta here.

All I got is my music, anyway

so I better be
getting back to that.

You go ahead and get back to it.

Roc, you know Joey hurt his lip.

Oh, Eleanor, his
lip ain't hurt that bad.

Doesn't seem to bother him
when he eats everything in sight.

There's no way I'm gonna believe

that he's not using his lips on
all the women he goes out with.

You know, roc's right.

I think it's time for me
to get back to playing.

Joey, you could
hurt your lip forever.

What if it ain't ready?

Well, there's only
one way to find out.

I've been laying
off long enough.

My lip should be ready.

It's got to be ready.
Any request, roc?

Yeah. How about taps?

[Trumpet music]

- Ow! Ah! Damn!
- What, Joey?

Ah, my lip. I think
I split it again.

I told you not to play until
your lip healed. You happy, roc?

- He didn't hurt that lip.
- Roc, I think I split it.

- Oh, yeah, yeah.
- Hey!

Dammit, I said I split it.

I might've lied about that
job. I wouldn't lie about my lip.

Roc. This is my career
here, this is my life.

- Ow!
- Roc, get him some ice, quick.

Alright, Joey. I'm-I'm
sorry about all this.

- Roc, it's not your fault.
- It is. I'm your big brother.

I'm supposed to
look out for you.

Roc, I said forget it, alright?

Roc, get the ice
before it starts to swell.

Joey, look, you can stay as
long as it takes the lip to heal.

- Are you sure, man?
- Absolutely.

Now, it-it might take longer
now that it's re-injured.

No, it-it doesn't matter. You
can stay as long as you want.

- I'd kiss you now, but my lip..
- That's okay, that's okay.

Don't just stand there.
Let's get the boy some ice.

Joey, again, I'm sorry.

Roc, it's-it's
swelling here, roc.

Okay, alright, wait a
minute. Come on, pop.

[Screams]

Hey, how about letting a
nurse take a look at that lip?

Well, Eleanor, it's
okay. It'll be alright.

I'll be the judge of
that. Joey. Let's see.

- Eleanor, Eleanor...
- Come on.

It won't hurt. Let me just..

Open up.

You didn't hurt your lip.

I know. Roc was
gonna throw me out.

- I didn't have anywhere to go.
- So you faked this.

You don't think
I'd take a chance

with the most important
part of my body?

You humiliated my husband.

You made him feel guilty about
something he didn't even do!

Yeah.

Why?

'Cause I'm good at
it. I mean, it's my forte.

- You go with your strengths.
- What?

Eleanor, look, you
gotta understand

if roc threw me out,
he'd felt guilty about that.

Now he doesn't deserve
that. I'm only thinking of him.

Oh, stop that, Joey. You're
only thinking about yourself.

You're absolutely right.

I don't know what's
the matter with me.

I know what's the
matter with you.

You're selfish.

You're selfish, ungrateful
and pretty damn inconsiderate.

Guess I'm not
exactly a boy scout.

How does one get through to you?

I don't know, Eleanor. I deserve
to be smacked upside my head.

Yeah, you sure do.

Why don't you go
ahead and do it?

Go ahead. I deserve it. Hit me.

Yeah, I'd like to.

But you know I won't.

I knew that. That's what
I'm talking about. See?

I'm real good.

[Joey] 'Ow!'

ah, Joey, your lip
hurts pretty bad, huh?

Roc, my lip's gonna be fine.

I think your wife
just broke my nose.

You ain't that good.
