2. Tasha Clarkson was the new
girl next door.
Copy !req
3. Unlike just about every other
girl in the neighborhood,
Copy !req
4. she didn't hate me.
Copy !req
5. Hi, Chris.
Hey, Tasha.
Copy !req
6. I always tried to play it
cool around her,
Copy !req
7. but every time she came
out the door,
Copy !req
8. it looked like this...
Copy !req
9. But Tasha's grandmother was one
of the strictest parents
Copy !req
10. on the block.
Copy !req
11. Where you going
dressed like that?
Copy !req
12. Grandma, I have on
everything but gloves.
Copy !req
13. Put some gloves on.
Copy !req
14. Showing your hands to people.
Copy !req
15. And it was 79 degrees.
Copy !req
16. So I figured the smartest
thing to do
Copy !req
17. was to just leave Tasha alone.
Copy !req
18. Chris, come quick. I need you.
Copy !req
19. So much for that plan.
Copy !req
20. Do you see it?
Chris, do you see it?
Copy !req
21. Oh, yeah, I see it.
Copy !req
22. But what do you want
me to do with it?
Copy !req
23. Get it out!
Copy !req
24. Get it out of my closet!
Okay, okay, okay.
Stop screaming please.
Copy !req
25. Stop, stop...
Copy !req
26. She's screaming like
the mouse had a gun.
Copy !req
27. Thank you.
Copy !req
28. No problem.
Copy !req
29. To you, that just looked
like a kiss on the cheek,
Copy !req
30. but to me it felt
like this...
Copy !req
31. Yo.
Copy !req
32. Little dude from
across the street.
Copy !req
33. Come here.
Copy !req
34. Listen, man, I don't
have any money.
Copy !req
35. I don't want your money,
little dude.
Copy !req
36. I want to know how
you got Tasha.
Copy !req
37. Got Tasha what?
Copy !req
38. Come on, little dude.
I saw that.
Copy !req
39. Every little dude on the block
been trying to get next to her.
Copy !req
40. Little dude from up
on the third floor,
Copy !req
41. little dude from
around the corner,
Copy !req
42. little dude with
the funny leg,
Copy !req
43. little dude with
the little loft,
Copy !req
44. little dude that be
with big dude... and Kenny.
Copy !req
45. Now I know why
they can't get nowhere.
Copy !req
46. 'Cause little dude from across
the street is on the case.
Copy !req
47. Now why you ain't
tell nobody?
Copy !req
48. Hey, well, you know.
Copy !req
49. That's what you said when you
didn't want to lie,
Copy !req
50. but you didn't want
to tell the truth.
Copy !req
51. I underestimated
you, little dude.
Copy !req
52. I ain't think you
had it in you.
Copy !req
53. Tasha. Mean as her
grandmom is.
Copy !req
54. You a bad man,
little dude.
Copy !req
55. Just do me a favor.
Copy !req
56. Don't tell anybody?
Copy !req
57. It's between me and you.
Copy !req
58. Little dude from
across the street.
Copy !req
59. Mackin'.
Copy !req
60. I should have told him the
truth that nothing happened,
Copy !req
61. but, hey, well, you know.
Copy !req
62. Captioning sponsored by
CBS Paramount
Network Television
Copy !req
63. My father never spent money
on himself.
Copy !req
64. So to get the things he liked,
he used trading stamps.
Copy !req
65. These weren't the kind of
stamps you put on an envelope.
Copy !req
66. They were the kind of stamps
you put in books
Copy !req
67. and could redeem for stuff
that you'd never buy with cash.
Copy !req
68. Like a bumper pool table...
Copy !req
69. Oh, yes!
Copy !req
70. electro energy ball...
Copy !req
71. My father wished he could use
trading stamps
Copy !req
72. to pay for everything.
Copy !req
73. He needs
a new heart.
Copy !req
74. Is it in the catalog?
Copy !req
75. 85,000 stamps.
Copy !req
76. Get that boy
into surgery.
Copy !req
77. Do they still have that
golden boomerang?
Copy !req
78. We ain't getting no
golden boomerang.
Copy !req
79. We getting a new
refrigerator.
Copy !req
80. What's wrong with
the refrigerator?
Copy !req
81. The thermostat
is broken.
Copy !req
82. The freezer's too cold,
the refrigerator's too hot.
Copy !req
83. It melted the ice cream
and froze the cheese.
Copy !req
84. I thought we were going
to get something fun.
Copy !req
85. Eating ain't fun?
Try not eating.
Copy !req
86. Whatever we get...
Copy !req
87. A new refrigerator.
Copy !req
88. we're gonna have
to do it soon.
Copy !req
89. The paper said the catalog
store's closing.
Copy !req
90. We got to redeem all these
by the weekend.
Copy !req
91. If I have any stamps left,
I'm going to get this.
Copy !req
92. What?
Copy !req
93. An electric
ping
Copy !req
94. It keeps score
automatically.
Copy !req
95. Now you know you're too big
to be playing ping-pong.
Copy !req
96. Can we use the sponge instead?
Copy !req
97. You know how much
a sponge costs?
Copy !req
98. Less than a new tongue.
Copy !req
99. Oh, that's one cent
worth of stamp.
Copy !req
100. Chris, give me the tape.
Copy !req
101. What my father didn't realize
was that I had to use
Copy !req
102. two cents worth of tape to
repair one cent worth of stamp.
Copy !req
103. Hey, Mom, you want to watch
The Ropers with me?
Copy !req
104. Oh, no, baby, I'm tired.
Copy !req
105. I've been working all day,
Copy !req
106. and after I finish
helping Tonya
Copy !req
107. I got to go
fold clothes.
Copy !req
108. Oh, okay.
Copy !req
109. I'll watch it with you.
Copy !req
110. No, thanks.
Copy !req
111. The only thing Drew liked more
than watching The Ropers
Copy !req
112. was watching The Ropers
with my mother.
Copy !req
113. I hadn't said that anything
really happened
Copy !req
114. between me and Tasha,
Copy !req
115. but not saying anything
was almost worse.
Copy !req
116. Hey, Chris.
Hey, Tasha.
Copy !req
117. Hey, Tasha,
how you doing?
Copy !req
118. Man, you better
leave her alone.
Copy !req
119. Isn't that right,
little dude?
Copy !req
120. Hey, well, you know.
Copy !req
121. I know.
Copy !req
122. I wasn't saying a word
about me and Tasha,
Copy !req
123. and yet, it was all over
Bed-Stuy.
Copy !req
124. Girl, little Tasha
who just moved in?
Copy !req
125. That's right.
Copy !req
126. You know what else
I heard?
Copy !req
127. I heard she and Chris
were right outside
Copy !req
128. on the street kissing.
Copy !req
129. Ooh, girl, was it
tongue kissing?
Copy !req
130. Right down
to the throat.
Copy !req
131. Ooh, I didn't know
she was like that.
Copy !req
132. You wasn't supposed to know.
Hmm.
Copy !req
133. Not only Chris have Tasha,
but he got three other women.
Copy !req
134. Hey, ain't nothing
wrong with that.
Copy !req
135. The Good Book says
"Be fruitful and prosper."
Copy !req
136. Yes, Lord.
Copy !req
137. Got any ashes
in this?
Copy !req
138. No.
Copy !req
139. Man, I heard Tasha caught
Chris cheating
Copy !req
140. with Valerie Simpson.
Copy !req
141. Nick Ashford
gonna kill him.
Copy !req
142. Hiyeh...
Copy !req
143. Notice how Nick Ashford
and Verdine White
Copy !req
144. look just alike?
Copy !req
145. Verdine White from
the liquor store,
Copy !req
146. or Verdine White from
Earth, Wind and Fire?
Copy !req
147. It's the same guy.
Copy !req
148. What?
Copy !req
149. The story was taking off,
Copy !req
150. and for the first time
I was trying to play it down.
Copy !req
151. You kissed Tasha?
Copy !req
152. Well, technically,
she kissed me.
Copy !req
153. And it wasn't
a "kiss" kiss.
Copy !req
154. She just kissed me
on the cheek.
Copy !req
155. Which cheek?
This one.
Copy !req
156. When did all
this happen?
Copy !req
157. Yesterday.
She was scared
of a mouse
Copy !req
158. and I went in
to go get it for her.
Copy !req
159. Then she gave me
a quick peck.
Copy !req
160. I was saying that, but I knew
Greg was thinking this...
Copy !req
161. Wow, you are in there.
Copy !req
162. Hey, well, you know.
Copy !req
163. No, I really
don't know.
Copy !req
164. Greg didn't even have
a vicarious thrill
Copy !req
165. till he was 22.
Copy !req
166. Just do me a favor—
don't tell anybody.
Copy !req
167. Who would I tell?
Copy !req
168. He would tell everybody.
Copy !req
169. Hey, Chris.
Hey, Chris.
Copy !req
170. And I mean everybody.
Copy !req
171. Hi, Chris.
Copy !req
172. Even Caruso gave me
some respect.
Copy !req
173. Hey, Lakeside, I didn't
know you had it in you.
Copy !req
174. Well, aren't you just
a little Sweet Sweetback.
Copy !req
175. Hey, well, you know.
Copy !req
176. Who knew that the secret
for a guy getting girls
Copy !req
177. is for a guy to get a girl?
Copy !req
178. While I was getting more
attention than I could handle,
Copy !req
179. Drew wasn't getting
any at all.
Copy !req
180. Hey, Mom, could you help
me with my homework?
Copy !req
181. Oh, baby, I'm tired.
Copy !req
182. I got to sort clothes
and do laundry.
Copy !req
183. Can't Chris help you
when he gets home?
Copy !req
184. I guess.
Copy !req
185. Drew hadn't looked that sad
since E.T. went home.
Copy !req
186. What?
Copy !req
187. Okay, what?
Copy !req
188. I'm just trying
to figure you out.
Copy !req
189. Here I'm thinking,
Copy !req
190. your middle name
is "Mr. Lonely."
Copy !req
191. Come to find out
it's "Lady
Copy !req
192. I'm not a lady-killer.
Copy !req
193. Yeah, I wasn't either.
That's how come
Copy !req
194. I got divorced
as many times as I did.
Copy !req
195. Look, when
your time comes,
Copy !req
196. get you a pre-nup.
Copy !req
197. I don't have anything.
Copy !req
198. Well, they'll
take that, too.
Copy !req
199. You got that right.
Copy !req
200. Hi, Chris.
Copy !req
201. How you doing?
Copy !req
202. Who are you?
Copy !req
203. Diedre, but you can
call me Dee-Dee.
Copy !req
204. This is Shavonda.
Copy !req
205. What's this?
Copy !req
206. My phone number.
Copy !req
207. So I can call you?
Copy !req
208. Yeah.
Copy !req
209. You know, I heard about
Copy !req
210. you and Tasha.
Copy !req
211. Hey, well, you know.
Copy !req
212. Hey, well, you know what?
Copy !req
213. Hi, Tasha.
Copy !req
214. Don't "Hi, Tasha" me.
Copy !req
215. Hey, well, you know what?
Copy !req
216. What were you gonna
say about me, Chris?
Copy !req
217. You have something to say,
say it to my face.
Copy !req
218. I want my mama!
Copy !req
219. The only person who hadn't
heard about me and Tasha
Copy !req
220. was my mother.
Copy !req
221. But that was about to change.
Copy !req
222. Hello, Louise.
How you doing?
Copy !req
223. You keep
Copy !req
224. your nasty little
nappy-headed son
Copy !req
225. away from my granddaughter.
Copy !req
226. That's how I'm doing.
Copy !req
227. That look means all seven
of the words
Copy !req
228. you can't say on television.
Copy !req
229. Because this is a family show,
all she can say is this...
Copy !req
230. Excuse me?
Copy !req
231. Let me slow
it down for you.
Copy !req
232. Keep...
Copy !req
233. your nasty little
nappy-headed son...
Copy !req
234. away... from my granddaughter.
Copy !req
235. Okay, Louise, first of all,
Copy !req
236. I don't know what
you're talking about.
Copy !req
237. Second of all, I suggest
you watch your tone.
Copy !req
238. I suggest you watch your son.
Copy !req
239. Louise, I'm going to assume that
you have not lost your mind.
Copy !req
240. All right.
Copy !req
241. There's less anger
in the Middle East.
Copy !req
242. So exactly what is it
that you're talking about?
Copy !req
243. Your son was in my house
Copy !req
244. with my granddaughter
Copy !req
245. when I wasn't home.
Copy !req
246. And then went around
the neighborhood
Copy !req
247. and talked about her like
she was some kind of tramp.
Copy !req
248. Chris?
Copy !req
249. No, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Copy !req
250. Yes, Chris.
Copy !req
251. I don't know how he wormed
himself into my house,
Copy !req
252. but I'll tell you this—
Copy !req
253. if it happens again,
Copy !req
254. there's going to be a problem.
Copy !req
255. "Problem" is a polite word
for "ass-kicking."
Copy !req
256. Chris!
Copy !req
257. Uh-oh.
Copy !req
258. Why is Miss Clarkson
talking about...?
Copy !req
259. Boy, turn around
before I smack a face
Copy !req
260. onto the back of your head.
Copy !req
261. Why is
Copy !req
262. Miss Clarkson talking
about you
Copy !req
263. in her house with Tasha,
and it's all
Copy !req
264. over the neighborhood?
Copy !req
265. I do not appreciate
the whole neighborhood
Copy !req
266. knowing something
about my child,
Copy !req
267. and I'm the last to find out.
Copy !req
268. My mother hated being the last
to find out about anything.
Copy !req
269. Surprise!
Copy !req
270. Why am I the last to know?
Copy !req
271. Congratulations.
You're pregnant.
Copy !req
272. That's great!
Copy !req
273. Pregnant? Why am
I the last to know?
Copy !req
274. What's going on?
Copy !req
275. That's what
I'm trying to find out.
Copy !req
276. Miss Clarkson said that Chris
was in her house with Tasha.
Copy !req
277. Doing what?
Nothing.
Copy !req
278. She asked me to come over
because there
Copy !req
279. was a mouse in her closet.
I got rid of it,
Copy !req
280. and then we went
right back outside.
Getting rid of a mouse?
Copy !req
281. Is that what
they're calling it nowadays?
Copy !req
282. Are you an exterminator?
If you are,
Copy !req
283. let me see your paycheck.
Copy !req
284. No.
Copy !req
285. Chris, I don't care
Copy !req
286. if you were
over somebody's house
Copy !req
287. getting rid of a mouse,
a spider, a roach, a tiger...
Copy !req
288. I was just trying to help.
Copy !req
289. Chris, please tell me.
Copy !req
290. Is that all
that really happened?
Copy !req
291. 'Cause Miss Clarkson seems to
think that you were doing more
Copy !req
292. than just getting rid
of a mouse, boy.
Copy !req
293. Well, after we went outside,
she gave me a kiss on the cheek,
Copy !req
294. and Jerome saw and,
next thing I know,
Copy !req
295. it's all over the neighborhood.
Copy !req
296. And you had nothing
to do with spreading that?
Copy !req
297. Hey, well, you know.
Copy !req
298. "Hey, well, you know"?
Copy !req
299. Well, what is that
supposed to mean?
Copy !req
300. Rochelle,
Chris and I need to talk
Copy !req
301. for a minute.
Copy !req
302. You putting me out?
Copy !req
303. We need to have
a man-to-man talk.
Copy !req
304. Okay, fine.
Copy !req
305. Julius, the next
time somebody comes
Copy !req
306. to this house with a problem,
Copy !req
307. I'm gonna send them directly
to you. Is that okay?
Copy !req
308. Huh?
Copy !req
309. All right.
Copy !req
310. Sit down.
Copy !req
311. Chris, if you're leading
people to believe
Copy !req
312. you did something
with that girl you didn't do,
Copy !req
313. then you need to fix it.
Copy !req
314. But I never said
we did anything.
Copy !req
315. Let me tell you
how to treat women, son.
Copy !req
316. If you do something,
Copy !req
317. you should never say anything.
Copy !req
318. If you don't do something,
and you don't say anything,
Copy !req
319. that means you did something
Copy !req
320. even if you
did nothing.
Copy !req
321. So, by not saying anything,
you're doing something,
Copy !req
322. and you need to say something
and let people know
Copy !req
323. you did nothing.
You understand?
Copy !req
324. No.
Copy !req
325. Yeah.
Copy !req
326. All right.
Copy !req
327. Hey, Tasha, wait up!
Copy !req
328. Why would you say
all those things about me?
Copy !req
329. I just moved in and,
all of a sudden,
I have a reputation.
Copy !req
330. I didn't say
anything, for real.
Copy !req
331. Well, somebody
said something,
and it wasn't me.
Copy !req
332. Yo, little dude.
Your old lady
mad at you, huh?
Copy !req
333. She's not my old lady.
Copy !req
334. What
Copy !req
335. Yeah, well...
Copy !req
336. I know. I know.
Copy !req
337. Hey, Mom, can you help me
make some Kool
Copy !req
338. Aw, Drew, I'm trying
to rest for 20 minutes
Copy !req
339. before I have
to cook dinner.
Copy !req
340. Here. You know how
to make Kool-Aid.
Copy !req
341. Never mind. Forget it.
Copy !req
342. What's wrong with him?
Copy !req
343. I don't know,
but I'm about
to find out.
Copy !req
344. We got any Kool
Copy !req
345. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
346. My mother had to find out
what was up
Copy !req
347. before she had
to smack Drew down.
Copy !req
348. Something you
want to talk about?
Copy !req
349. Why do you
pay more attention
Copy !req
350. to Chris and Tonya
than you do me?
Copy !req
351. I don't do it
on purpose, baby.
Copy !req
352. Well, then, how come
every time I ask you
to do something,
Copy !req
353. you always make me
do it by myself?
Copy !req
354. Well, because you've
always been able
Copy !req
355. to do things on your own.
Copy !req
356. Doesn't mean
I love you any less.
Copy !req
357. Sometimes
it feels like it.
Copy !req
358. Oh, don't say that, Drew.
Copy !req
359. I'm proud of you.
Copy !req
360. I guess I don't see you
as being my baby anymore.
Copy !req
361. You don't?
Copy !req
362. Uh-uh.
Copy !req
363. I look at you as a young man,
because you're so independent.
Copy !req
364. I'm independent?
Copy !req
365. Yeah.
Copy !req
366. And you're funny.
Copy !req
367. You're handsome.
Copy !req
368. Oh, cool.
Copy !req
369. So you going to be okay?
Copy !req
370. Yeah.
Copy !req
371. I'm sorry, Drew.
Copy !req
372. I love you.
Copy !req
373. I love you, too.
Copy !req
374. Good. Come on, let's
make some Kool-Aid.
Copy !req
375. Oh, and another thing.
Copy !req
376. If you ever walk away
from me like that again,
Copy !req
377. you going to need a wheelchair
to bring you back. Okay?
Copy !req
378. Meanwhile, I had girl trouble
without having a girl.
Copy !req
379. Hey, Tasha. Can I talk
to you for a second?
Copy !req
380. No.
Copy !req
381. Hey, why you acting
all stuck
Copy !req
382. I know Chris is cool
and everything,
Copy !req
383. but you're too good for me?
Copy !req
384. Tasha!
Copy !req
385. I want everyone
to listen to me!
Copy !req
386. Tasha is
Copy !req
387. not my girlfriend.
Copy !req
388. She never was.
Copy !req
389. I know everybody
thinks that something
Copy !req
390. was going on between us,
but nothing happened.
Copy !req
391. And not nothing something.
Nothing nothing.
Copy !req
392. Tasha's a nice girl.
Copy !req
393. She's not like that.
Copy !req
394. I got rid of a mouse for her.
Copy !req
395. Then she gave me a kiss on
the cheek and a hug. That's it.
Copy !req
396. Tasha, I'm sorry.
Copy !req
397. Now, would you all
Copy !req
398. quit talking about this?
Copy !req
399. Because there is nothing
to talk about.
Copy !req
400. I wish there was
something to talk about.
Copy !req
401. But there's not.
Copy !req
402. Okay?
Copy !req
403. Get off of my car, fool!
Copy !req
404. How did he know my nickname?
Copy !req
405. I can't believe you
made the whole thing up.
Copy !req
406. I didn't make
anything up.
Copy !req
407. Everyone else did.
What do you expect
people to think
Copy !req
408. with you running
around saying,
Copy !req
409. "Yeah, well, you know"
to everything?
Copy !req
410. That's why
I had to stop it.
Copy !req
411. I thought you
were so in there.
Copy !req
412. Everybody did.
Copy !req
413. Listen, just don't say anything
to anybody. I want this to die.
Copy !req
414. I won't say a word.
Copy !req
415. This is going to stay
between you and me.
Copy !req
416. All right.
Copy !req
417. Just like before.
Copy !req
418. Hey.
Copy !req
419. Ew!
Copy !req
420. How you guys doing?
Copy !req
421. Shut up!
Shut up!
Copy !req
422. You blew it,
cornbread.
Copy !req
423. Some Sweetback
you are.
Copy !req
424. I wasn't the only one
looking for redemption.
Copy !req
425. Back at the catalog store,
Copy !req
426. my father was taking
his sweet stamps back.
Copy !req
427. I'm here to
redeem my stamps.
Copy !req
428. What would you like?
Copy !req
429. The olive green refrigerator.
Copy !req
430. We're out of those.
Copy !req
431. You have one in yellow?
Copy !req
432. No. We're out
of the refrigerators.
Copy !req
433. Well, what
about the stove?
Copy !req
434. Gone.
Copy !req
435. The sofa?
Uh-uh.
Copy !req
436. Washing machine?
Nope.
Copy !req
437. Electric ping
Nada.
Copy !req
438. Mini
Zilch.
Copy !req
439. The golden boomerang?
The bishop
Copy !req
440. just walked out
with the last one.
Copy !req
441. Hello.
Copy !req
442. So what do you have?
Copy !req
443. Well, we got this.
Copy !req
444. Oh, cool. Nice.
Copy !req
445. This is a nice canoe.
Copy !req
446. 100,000 more stamps
and we could get a river.
Copy !req
447. Julius, where you plan
on putting this canoe?
Copy !req
448. I don't know. Somewhere.
Copy !req
449. Where's the canoe?
Copy !req
450. How did they untie it?
Copy !req
451. When did they take it?
Copy !req
452. They wouldn't have
taken a refrigerator.
Copy !req
453. The next week, that's exactly
Copy !req
454. how they stole
our new refrigerator.
Copy !req
455. That's 4,652 books
worth of stamps!
Copy !req
456. The word back on the block
Copy !req
457. was that Tasha and I
had never done a thing,
Copy !req
458. but sometimes you have
to hear things
Copy !req
459. from the horse's mouth.
Copy !req
460. Miss Clarkson?
Copy !req
461. What do you want
with your little mannish behind?
Copy !req
462. I wanted to apologize.
Copy !req
463. What exactly is it
that you're apologizing for?
Copy !req
464. Well, first, to Tasha
for letting all those people
Copy !req
465. believe all that stuff
about her.
Copy !req
466. And to you for going into your
house without your permission.
Copy !req
467. Did your mother
send you over here to do that?
Copy !req
468. Because, if she did...
Copy !req
469. She didn't.
Copy !req
470. You're not fooling anybody.
Copy !req
471. I know you.
Copy !req
472. I don't know what you do
Copy !req
473. with these little fast girls
around here,
Copy !req
474. but you're not going
to do that with Tasha.
Copy !req
475. Miss Clarkson missed me
when Tasha started
Copy !req
476. dating Bobby Brown.
Copy !req
477. Chris?
Copy !req
478. Thank you.
Copy !req
479. Hey! Little dude
from across the street.
Copy !req
480. Man, that's too bad
what happened with
you and Tasha.
Copy !req
481. I told you,
nothing happened
with me and Tasha.
Copy !req
482. Yeah, I know.
Let me hold a dollar.
Copy !req
483. They say the truth
will set you free,
Copy !req
484. but in my case
it cost a dollar.
Copy !req
485. At least I still had
Dee Dee's phone number.
Copy !req
486. Give me back
my phone number!
Copy !req
487. You better not
have it memorized.
