- I like it. - Good.

I like the orange, and I like the ice cream. Good. All right.

You gotta get rid of the cherries and lose the banana.

Cherry and banana? But that's a little buñuel, a little dali, a little... you know.

No, that's a little too overt, you know? We should go a little more subtle.

I think some women might get offended. All right.

But I dug it. I dug it. Don't make that "he didn't dig it" face.

I dug it. Just got a little nasty, like you always do. [ laughs ]

All right. Okay. [ chuckles ]

All right. The nasty nelson. That's me.

At least there wasn't no sausages in this one. [ laughing ]

[ intercom beeps ] yeah?

[ secretary ] anita on line one. Great.

Hey, you. Now, don't be mad...

Can I explain to you what happened? Have you been watching the news?

Oh, then you haven't been watching the news.

The big accident in midtown, where the cabs busted into the other cab...

And knocked it into the bus and the water main busted.

I was in that. You haven't seen? It's on the news right now.

Oh, just went off. Channel four, just went off. Yeah, but I was...

No, I'm cool. I'm all right, yeah.

My neck's a little stiff, that's all.

Yeah, I'm all with that. Oh, that too.

Can I call you next week? Cool. Later.

[ intercom beeps ]

What's next? Casting for the body lotion spot.

Uh, tell the fellas I might be a little late for lunch today.

Yo, man, I saw somethin' on cable last night. Freaked me.

There was this woman, right? Baby had bo-dy.

She was lyin' there, totally naked, right?

You could see everything. But she had a dick, man.

Fucked me up!

It was a-a 976 number for hermaphrodites...

You talkin' about 976-dick, "chicks with dicks"?

- Ewww! - [ Scoffs ]

How could you put something like that in your mental rolodex? He's a closet freak.

- You got problems, man. - You're comin' out!

- Yeah. - No, man, I was just, you know, kidding.

Oh, man. Yo, that ain't regular, man.

See, sometime I feel like there's a whole world out there we don't know about.

Like the shit you read about in penthouse. That never happens to me.

Man, stuff like that never happens to anybody, except for marcus.

Hey, the only reason stuff like that happens to me is I pay attention to women.

- Y'all don't pay attention to women. - Whoa, I pay attention.

You have to watch them and study their moves. Get outta here, marcus.

- Yo, I can't do that, man. - That's why you don't get no pussy.

- Exactly. - Hey, tyler, there's other things in life besides sex.

Come on. How about sharing, commitment?

You got to get in touch with your feminine side, like me.

Startin' to sound a little on the soft side. Startin' to sound soft.

- Borderline bitch. - You know what your problem is?

You need more romance and less doberman pinscher. That's what you need.

That's true. That is true. You have too much dog and no romance in your life.

Whoa, marcus, don't even try that, all right? You ait got no romance.

Uh-uh-uh, excuse me. Excuse me I am the most romantic cat both of you know.

- [ groaning ] - Uh-uh-uh!

When I meet a woman, I am flowers, I am candy, I am soft music.

- And mr. Milk bone. - No, I am mr. Romance when I meet a woman.

And then once I hit it, I lose interest. But that ain't my fault.

Oh, so, in other words, right at that moment of orgasm,

Just all the romance just skeets right out of you.

But you can't put that on me. The onus is not on me. Hi.

- Hey, hi. How are you? - Good. Thank you.

- Where are you from? - I'm from holland.

Nice meeting you. Nice meeting you too.

- Bye. - Bye-bye, cuteness.

I'm, I'm from detroit.

That shit made me mad, man. Bitches never do that to me, man.

Well, maybe it's because you call them bitches all the time.

Yeah, man. You need to straighten up, show some respect. Come on!

Yo, man. Excuse me. Excuse me, waitress?

Yeah? Look, um, I ordered the duck, right?

Yeah. What vegetable comes with that?

Ooh, that's a good one. It's saued asparagus spears.

And it is good. It's our special.

Oh, yes. Delicious.

That sounds good. Oh, god. You'll love 'em.

Bye-bye. That sounds good. Thank you.

"that sounds good." come on! What?

Why don't she just come out and call us jungle bunnies, man?

- What? What? - Asparagus spears!

Not since debra. That's the girl I almost married.

I went to the church a little early 'cause I had a bad feeling.

And, uh, I go in the back, and that's when I saw it.

She was on the ground with the best man...

Man, she was beautiful! She was beautiful, but her feet were jacked up.

Were they? Yeah. Oh, I pulled the covers back...

Yeah? It was hammer time.

I should've known somethin' was up. Her shoes had little bumps on the top when I met her.

But I thought maybe it was an old shoe or somethin'.

You would never, ever think a woman that fine would have hammer time in her shoe.

Come on, man. You don't fuck her feet. Damn!

I hope I'm not out of line, but don't you think you're being just a little bit too picky?

Yeah, right. What happened with tracy, man?

Gerard, you met that girl. She's not very smart.

Come on, man! You don't fuck her brains.

I'm looking for perfection.

Oh, if you were a guy. Not that I have those thoughts, because I don't.

But I'm just saying she's attractive, and I would probably go out with her.

I know where you're going. You see other girls and say, "oh, she's cute."

But guys don't see other guys and go, "oh, look at his shoulders."

We don't do that. Sure you have. You've seen a movie before,

And you've seen a man in a movie and you've said, "there is a nice-looking man."

I can't believe we're having this conversation. I've gone to the movies,

And I remember I saw billy dee williams in lady sings the blues.

He came down the steps, and I thought he was cool. But I didn't want to get with him.

And they want to be jolted.

"wet spot." no, sorry. I crossed out that one.

"love puss." "pig puke."

- "afterbirth." - After what?

After... Birth.

I'm sorry. I thought you said "bath."

No. It's english. B-I-r-t-h. Birth.

I was just making a distinction between "birth" or "bath."

Birth, birth, birth! Whoo! [ strange ] thank you, darling.

Don't make fun of me, okay? My english is not so good. Ow.

"steel vagina." you understand that one.

- Yeah. - Steel vagina. Marvelous.

What do you think?

[ clears throat ] I...

Uh, those are really creative. Oh, thank you.

But, uh, the name of this fragrance has to be something that, that catches the eye.

It has to incite passion, and it has to...

It has to be electric, and it has to say glamour and it has to say sexy.

It has to say smart. It has to... it has to, uh...

Wait a minute.

Strange. Stran... your name is all of those things.

You're-you're powerful. You're glamorous. You're sexy. You're intelligent. Stran...

Well, as an employee, I thank you for saving my job.

- And as your lover, I thank you for ruining my life. - Oh, come on, marcus.

I didn't ruin your life. You ruined your life.

I said this was gonna happen. I was just hoping it didn't happen with you.

The only thing that I can suggest is...

Perhaps you should take a few weeks off.

Okay.

[ church bells ringing ]

There's this one kid that you are gonna love. He is so cute.

He's really gonna lift you up. Marcus!

I am not gonna let you sit around here and mope all day long.

Now, snap out of it! Have you been listening? Cupid has his foot in my ass.

I have the cure for cupid, all right? Now, when I have problems with my relationship,

Which is most of the time,

I find out that it's better to take the focus off myself...

And put it to others.

I don't wanna be around no kids. I wanna go home and sit in my house...

And look at the walls and listen to sade.

That's what I wanna do. And that's fun?

No, but that's where my head is at right now. That's where I need to be.

I don't wanna go in here and paint. You can't paint my miseries away.

[ chattering ] [ angela ] hi. Hi, angela!

Ank you. Everybody, this is mr. Graham.

- [ all laughing ] - Who did that?

These children are kids that I teach art to whose schools can't afford an art program.

Oh, so nice. Now, remember last week, we saw...

I'm gonna whoop somebody's ass. Sit down, marcus.

Remember last week, we looked at collages from romare bearden, right?

[ all ] yes. And this week, what were you supposed to do?

Bring your own collages. [ simultaneously ] bring our own collages.

Who wants to show me theirs first?

Oh, boy! Kenny.

As-salaam alaikum, my brother. Alaikum salaam.

- Greetings, my nubian princess. - My king.

This is the sun, and these are the sun rays.

And this is a big, giant, huge hole in the ozone layer. And this is what's gonna happen...

To people and animals if we don't fix up the ozone layer quickly.

[ angela ] that's very afro-centric. You oughta like this, kenny.

What a lively little thing you are.

- Okay. Tell us about this. - This is my house.

This is the sun.

This is a sphere, and this is a shield.

Then we have...

Then, right here, is my fishbowl. And this is blood.

Then these are my clothes. And these are the fish.

Why... this is the fishbowl up here, right? And these are the fish and this the floor.

Why aren't the fish in the bowl?

Because I don't want them there. But they can't live on the floor.

Art can be very abstract. It doesn't have to make sens only in the artist's mind.

Thank you, khanya. Thank you, khanya, for your interpretation.

[ angela ] okay. Who's gonna be next?

You cannot tell me you did not have fun in there with those kids.

I ain't sayin' it wasn't fun; I'm just sayin' I wasn't in the right mind-set.

Mind-set? What do you mean? You didn't think about jacqueline one time while you were there.

That's true. And I bet you didn't think about the strange commercial either.

Right? You're right. The kids are more inspirational than I've been.

Thank you.

I got an idea. What?

I got an idea for the strange ad.

Okay. Slow it down. Right... right there.

- [ machine beeps ] - [ Static ]

- Okay. What do you think? - Well, I like it.

[ women screaming offscreen ] hold it.

Is that a nipple?

-[ marcus ] that's not a nipple. That's a shadow. -That's a nipple.

- Excuse me. That is a shadow. - I think it's a shadow of a nipple.

Come on. Stop playing. That's a nipple.

- That is a shadow. - I'll blow it up.

It's a nipple, 'cause I'm drooling.

[ laughs ]

You, uh, a little nervous about meeting gerard's parents?

No, I'm not. .

I just don't want them to think we're a couple, you know?

Don't even trip. Gerard ain't even that close to hisather, first of all.

You know, I knew it. Gerard is really a fun guy, isn't he?

He is very much fun. It's his father and his mother that are the square ones.

- [ doorbell rings ] - I got it.

Hey-ho! [ woman ] happy thanksgiving!

What's up? Angela's over there.

Hey, mr. Jackson! Happy thanksgiving! How you doin', honey?

You look great. Thank you. So do you.

Thanks. My, uh, parents are here.

You look just like your dad. Thanks.

I brought you some chitlins. Oh! Gerard's mother...

Angela, gerard's mother brought us a whole trough of ctlins.

- [ tyler ] I want a bowl. - This the little girl you been talkin' about?

Agatha? Angela, angela lewis.

Mm-hmm. That's what I said. Nice to meet you.

- Isn't she pretty? She look like one of marcus's girls. - [ Groans ]

Hey, why don't... agatha, why don't you go in the kitchen and help mrs. Jackson with these?

Go on. Y'all go in the kitchen. Cutie pie.

- [ mrs. Jackson ] all right. - Mr. Jackson, come here. - Hey, buddy!

Man, it's so good to see you. Every year, you do something new.

Now, wre'd you get the mushroom shirt? I'm trying to impress you.

I know. Now, where'd you get the mushroom shirt? I got to know.

Well, the secret is, you got to coordinate. Uh-huh.

Most people don't coordinate. See, you got to coordinate. That's what you did.

Interesting. See, I told you they don't stink when you pull the membrane out.

- Mama! - See, when you saw me, you saw the mushroom shirt.

I said, "mushroom shirt." bang! Mushroom shirt. You can't stop with the mushroom shirt.

You gotta go on. I'd have stopped at the shirt.

No, you gotta keep going. Let me show you something. Look at that.

Oh, you got on a mushroom belt. Gerard, did you know your pops had a mushroom belt on?

- Yes. - But you don't stop there, see? You gotta keep goin'.

What you got? A mushroom ring? Yes. Good idea.

Look what I got. Dah! Gerard,

Did you know on the inside was special mushrooms? Yes!

Mmm-mmm-mmm. Simply delicious, marcus.

I keep tellin' your mom she should take some cooking lessons from you.

All she do is cook pork. I'll bet we've eaten everything on the pig...

From the rooter to the tooter.

- The whole pig, huh? - You didn't marry me for my cooking.

You got that right, baby. That's why we got little junior over there.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

Must you embarrass me in front of my friends on every possible occasion?

Now, see... see there? That's your son.

- Private school got him all "sadiddy" like that. - Yeah, man. Chill.

It's your father. Mr. Jackson, angela made this meal. It wasn't me. I can't take credit for it.

[ mr. Jackson ] mmm. Very good. [ mrs. Jackson ] very good.

Hmm. Good pick, junior. [ gerard ] daddy!

I told you that angela and I are just friends.

Mm-hmm.

[ sucking teeth ] just friends, huh?

Yes, just friends. Just friends.

Leave it alone, hon. They've told you that 500 times. Just let it go.

Fine. We change the subject.

Now, marcus, I hear a girl at the office got you pussy-whipped.

Why don't you... [ sucking teeth ] reverse it? Don't be pussy-whipped.

Whip that pussy!

- Look. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang! - [ Mrs. Jackson ] ooh, daddy!

You really insist on standing around all day with a long face, all right?

Man, my parents been in that bathroom damn near an hour, man.

So what? Well, they been in there hittin' it.

Your parents are smokin' a joint in my bathroom? No. They been in there fuckin'.

[ laughs ]

Whoo! [ sighs ]

Damn. Goodness. What's for dessert?

Wow.

I'm all right, man. Let's go. Let's go eat, man.

Are you sure you don't want me to go with you? No, no, no. That's all right.

I'd better run my parents home before ty embarrass me any further. Okay.

I had a great time. I'll call you tomorrow. Me too.

Bye. Mrs. Jackson. [ groaning ]

I cannot tell y'all how much fun it is to be with y'all and...

So good. Oh, a piece of coat, I think.

Ohh, boy, the rabbit is getting old, baby. Lookie there.

We'll tear another piece off and make some earrings. We'll coordinate.

Oh! Yeah, that'll work. [ tyler ] yo, yo, yo, yo.

Got a hookup for tonight. Who?

Remember that little girl I met in emergency? Yeah.

Baby got her stitches out. [ grunts ]

Yo, well, whatever. I'll rap to you. All right. I gotta go.

Okay, buddy. Take care of yourself.

See y'all later, all right? [ mumbles ] see you later.

[ mrs. Jackson ] bye. [ angela ] sure you don't want me to help you with the dishes?

[ marcus ] I got it. Go on home. [ angela ] okay.

[ mr. Jackson shouting, indistinct ] [ angela ] where's my coat?

[ chuckles ]

Angela?

Yes? I'm gonna have to take you up on that offer.

Thought so. Yes.

Chitlin juice everywhere, and I don't know if I can handle it alone.

I am so tired, I don't care if I never see another cup, plate, again in my life.

My. Oh, my feet are killg me. Can I take my shoes off?

Yeah, you can. You'll have the whole house smellin' like funky corn chips.

Please. My feet do not stink. Star trek's comin' on.

I love star trek. Do you really?

Yeah. I'm a trekkie. Get outta here! I'm a trekkie! Look at cap...

Ain't captain kirk the coolest white man on the planet?

You know, you can always tell who's gonna get killed when you watch this show.

Now, look... look who's beamin' down.

You see kirk, mccoy, spock... And yeoman johnson.

Now, doesn't yeoman johnson know he's gonna get killed?

If I was yeoman johnson, I'd say, "hey, I'm not goin'. I know what's gonna happen."

It's amazing how you've just sort of broken down this whole star trek thing.

Well, I'm a trekkie. That's why I broke it down to the barest essence of the trek.

I'm a trekkie. I know everything about star trek.

What's captain kirk's first name? "captain."

No, it's not "captain." his name is james t. Kirk.

What is mr. Spock's last name? Huh?

You didn't even know that. The name is spock jenkins.

One of the jenkins boys from vulcan.

It's, uh... we'll talk about it later.

Hey, you.

Yo, man, it's racial.

Expand. All right. Check it out.

The white ball dominates everything, right?

It knocks the shit out of the yellow ball, the red ball, right?

And the game's over when the white ball drives the black ball...

Completely off the table. [ grunts ]

- Now, why is that? - I don't know, but I'm sure you'll tell me,

My "brotha."

Sure. You right. Look,

It's because of the white man's fear...

Of the sexual potency of black balls.

That one was kind of interesting. That was interesting.

- [ tyler ] you see, what was... - I see where you're going. And the pool table is earth.

That's why it's green. Oh, see, your shit is comin' out now.

- And the world, they used to think it was flat. - School h.

Okay, I'll get him. I'm gonna work on him. Fine.

Yo, man, he's gettin' worse. We got to find him a woman quick.

He'll be all right. Hey, how are things with you and angela?

Oh, we're cool, man, you know.

We went out a couple times, man, and she was gettin' so involved.

- I said, "look, I'm just gonna pull back." - Hmm. Cool.

Oh, yeah, yeah. I told her. I said, "look here, girl, do your thing, see other men,

'cause I'm gonna see other women," you know?

I just didn't want to break her heart right off, you know? I just pull out easy.

Okay. Good, good. So you don't mind if she goes out with other guys then?

Oh, hell, no. Wh...

Oh, you're thinking of hooking her up with tyler?

No, nothing like that. Why you askin', man?

I was just curious.

I don't believe this shit.

Why you askin', man?

You can't even look me in my eye, can you, marcus?

Did you sleep with angela?

Yeah, I did. [ sighs ]

Why do you always have to have all the girls, marcus?

You said a couple of seconds ago you didn't care who she went out with; now you're flippin'.

You're bein' a hypocrite. I don't wanna hear that bullshit, man!

This is different. Angela is a nice girl.

So I can't be with a nice girl? No.

'cause all you're gonna do is dog her out like you do every woman in your life.

Okay. Tell me this, man. Why angela? What? She has nice feet?

Oh, it has nothing to do with her feet or anything like that, man.

I care about this girl. Man, you don't care about nobody but yourself, man!

[ groans ]

So when we can rise as a people, we runnin' things, you know?

What'd you do, man? Guess.

[ shower running ]

Marcus, come quick! I got something I wanna show you!

[ marcus ] what? I wanna show you something.

Get out of here. I'm in the shower! Marcus!

- Stop! Hey, hey! - Come on.

I'm soaking wet. You're gonna make me catch a cold out here. I wanna show you something.

No, it won't. Look. Ta-da!

Well, what do you think? Blue people.

Yeah, that's nice. The blue people. What do you think? Do you like it?

Yes, very much. Okay, 'kay, 'kay. Look at it...

And tell me how it makes you feel.

Honestly, it's makin' me kind of horny. No. Feel.

And I would like to be and I would like to think I was the inspiration for that blue man.

You should be blue. You're gonna get paint all over me.

[ telephone rings ] exactly. The phone's ringing.

Take those clothes off. Take 'em off. Off. [ giggles ] no.

[ phone beeps on ] hello? Jacqueline, hi!

How you doin'? He's right here, actually.

No. No, we weren't busy at all. Here he is.

Okay.

Hey. Yeah.

No, that was angela. She just stopped by for a second.

Uh-huh. Really?

Oh, that's... hey, hey. Your spot tested through the roof.

Yeah, she's happy. Uh-huh.

Yes, absolutely. Absolutely.

Oh, that's perfect. Great. Yeah. Peace.

Hey. Hey, they're showin' the spot to the board of directors on Friday night,

And jacqueline wants me to be there.

Great.

Wait. You don't have a problem with that, do you? No, no.

Hey, I will call her, and I'll tell her that... you sure?

Cool.

That's bad. Blue people.

[ speaking french ] [ men chuckling ]

[ continues in french ] hey, hey. Le peace. Chill.

[ continues in french ]

Les plumes.

You are brilliant! God, marcus, they loved it!

They loved it. Did you hear the little frenchman screaming "magnifique"...

With a little bead of sweat runnin' down his face, man?

- I knew I had that cat. - Marcus, you are incredibly talented.

Well, I thank you. Lady eloise thanks you.

Tell her I said "hey." I'm sure strange...

Would like to thank you personally.

- Yeah, she'd like to thank the hell out of me. - [ Laughing ]

I have to say,

It's very nice to have the old marcus back.

I was kind of worried about ya. Really?

You seemed, um... you seemed so...

- I don't know. Can I be honest? - Please.

Well, you seemed desperate and unsure of yourself.

[ chuckling ]

Pathetic? Aha. Kind of pathetic.

Uh-huh.

Look at you now. You're, uh... you're relaxed.

You're more confident. Just like the man I met in that elevator.

I got it goin' on again. Yeah, you do. I like it.

I find it very attractive.

How'd it go last night?

It went okay.

Just okay?

It must've gone pretty well. You didn't get home until the middle of the night.

I went for a walk so I could sort some things out that was in my head.

- I was trippin' on it. - Like the fact that you're still in love with jacqueline?

Angela, I saw the woman,

And a bunch of stuff that was in me I didn't even know was still there came out.

Things happened, and...

There's certain things you just have no control over, all right?

Really? Like what?

Like love.

Love?

You know, what do you know about love?

What do you possibly think you know about love?

You know, I'm sick and tired of men using love like it's some kind of disease you just catch.

Love should've brought your ass home last night.

Didn't you just hear me say I was sorry? I heard you say you're sorry.

You're sorry, and you're tired. You don't love me. You don't love jacqueline.

- You only love your damn self. - How could you say I never cared about you?

Jacqueline says I'm a better person now, and I owe that all to you.

I'm outta here.

I'll get the rest of my things later.

Let me just tell you one more thing. I might not be all glamorous,

And I don't have hair weaved all down my back, but let me tell you one great thing about me.

I've got a heart. And you know the bad thing about having a heart, marcus,

Is that it gets broken when you deal with people like you.

Now, stay thfuck outta my life!

[ thunderclap ]

She left you, huh?

Yeah, she did.

[ sighs ] I guess I should feel happy, but I don't.

I hate to see another person in pain.

Well, thank you very much. That's very nice of you, yvonne. Good night.

So, uh, would you like to come over for a cup of coffee?

Not even if jesus was pourin' it.

Some motherfuckers are so blind they can't see a good thing when it's starin' them in the face.

You're damn right, you fucked up. You hurt me.

I miss you. No. I really, really miss you.

I've never missed anybody in my life, and I miss you. I'm in love with you.

This isn't about your love. It's about the fact you can't love me the way I deserve to be loved.

That's what this is about. You think I'd come down here and bother you...

Unless I was ready to be everything you wanted in a relationship?

I want to be straight up about everything. I want to have a monogamous relationship.

You are my best friend. I'm miserable without you. I even quit my job because of you.

Did I ask you to quit your job?

Why you doin' this? Doing what?

Being all stiff and cold and hidin' behind your work.

I'm taking care of my business, and I suggest you take care of yours.

Listen,

I know having a great job is cool and all of that,

But you used to have a good time.

You used to be with these kids, and me and you used to have fun and we had a great life.

- You had everything. - Give me one reason why I should take you back.

One.

I didn't think you could.

Do you still love me?

'cause I love you so much.

I miss you.

I'm scared.

And I'm miserable.

I can't breathe. I can't breathe.
