And I done raised three generations
of children here in this cave.

You're the last of the Timbuks.

I can't make it out there, Pappy.

- Okay, I'll try.

All right. Well, now you gots to

- Yes'm.
- And find the Underground Railroad.

- Yes'm.
- Gots to find Harriet Tubman.

- Harriet Tubman.
- Look like Cicely Tyson.

- No, that's Esther Rolle.

I want you to do
one other thing for me, boy.

- What is it, Pappy? What, Pappy?
- Take care of my good jacket.

- Oh, yes, sir.
- [Groans]

Pappy! Pappy.
[Breathing Heavily]

Oh, Pappy!

He'd wants me to have this.

[Groaning, Grunts]

Well, it looks like
I'm on my own now.

I gots to find my freedom and get outta
here before this body starts stinkin'.

Before I be a sl*ve,
I be buried in the grave.

Or I be the hardest working man
in the cotton field.

Psst. Psst.
You headin' north?

Uh, no, man.
I believe this is southeast.

Well, how far behind you is they?

- Who?
- The dogs. I don't hear the dogs.

Man, what dogs, man?
Is there something I can help you with?

'Cause I'm on my way home,
and, man, I am whipped.

Oh, Lord, how many lashes
they give ya?

Uh, no, man, I mean I'm b*at.

Well, at least
you still got your foot.

Man, look, what is it that you want, man?
I don't have any time for this.

You must be one of
those house n*gg*s.

- Look, I'm just looking for my freedom.
- Freedom?

- Yes, sir.
- Well, where the hell have you been, in a cave?

Yes, sir, right back yonder.

Oh, man, look.
You must be from the South, man.

- Brothers up here don't act like that.
- No?

Excuse me?

Well, move it.
You're blocking the way.

I's sorry, sir.
We just mosey out your way.

Man, what the hell
is the matter with you?

I'm trying to jog,
and you're blocking my way.

Yeah, well, next time,
you know, run around, jackass.

- What?
- [Breathing Heavily]

Is you crazy, man?

Is you crazy? You don't be talking
to no white man like that.

He don't... They wanna be right
even when they wrong. We's sorry, sir.

Very sorry, sir.
Didn't mean to hurt ya.

Sorry. He must got one of them,
that colored fever goin' round.

The boy is not feeling too well.
Accept our apologies, please, sir.

- I'll accept yours.
- Thank you.

But I don't like
your friend's attitude.

You better change your attitude.

- Man, why did you do that?
- What you talkin' about?

Didn't your pappy teach you
nothin' about survival?

You don't talk to
the white man like that.

Them people wanna be right
even when they's wrong.

- [Dog Barking]
- [Yells]

You see what you did?

You done put the dogs on us.

Oh, them dogs a lot smaller
than Pappy said they was.

- Man, it's .
- [Indistinct]

- What did you say?
- I said stop eyeballin' that white woman.

- With your fancy clothes on.
- Man, you can have that if you so desire, brother.

This is , man.

All that handkerchief
head stuff don't play up here.

This is America. We are free.
We can do what we want.

There he is, Officer.
That's the one.

You done brought
the sl*ve catchers on us.

- Well, feets, don't fail me now.
- Be cool. Be cool, man.

We haven't done anything wrong. Officer,
I'm glad you're here. See, because...

All right, face down on the ground.
Put your hands behind your back.

- Yes, sir! Yes, sir!
- Wait a minute!

I said get down on your knees
and get your hands behind your back!

I's down, sir.
If I go any further, I'll be in China.

[Officer]
You have...

- You have the right to remain silent.
- Man, this is outrageous.

We didn't mean no harm,
Mr. sl*ve Master, sir.

- You better shut up.
- Yes, sir.

Please don't b*at me.
Don't b*at me.

L-I tried to warn him,
but he wouldn't listen.

Hush up. I'm not talking to you.
You're free to go.

- I's free?
- Yeah, keep moving.

Wait a minute now. I think
he's in a singing group or something, man.

Yes, sir. I keep moving.
That's a good idea.

Freedom don't seem

Good evening, and... welcome.

Tonight's story begins
on the night ofJuly ...

stardate .

Henry Turner
of Compton, California...

was robbed in his own home...

and severely beaten.

At : p.m., a call came in
to the rescue center.

- Hello. .
- Help me, please.

I'm hurt very badly.

They done gone upside my head.
I'm bleeding like a stuck pig!

Well, calm down, sir.
I need you to tell me where you live.

I live at st Street
in Compton.

Sir, we don't have
a rescue unit available right now...

but as soon as one is,
we'll send it over right away.

What the hell?

Unfortunately, Mr. Turner
could not be helped immediately.

Two minutes later, at : p.m., a second
call came in from a different part of town.

Put it on screen.

Hello. .

Please help me.
Fluffy is trapped in a tree!

Try to calm down, sir.
I need you to tell me where you live.

I live at Braymer Place
in Beverly Hills.

- Okay, just relax, sir.
A rescue unit is on its way.
- [Siren Wailing]

Oh, God bless you. They're here!

Don't worry, Fluffy.
Daddy's coming to save you!

At almost warp speed...

a rescue unit was on the scene
to save cute, little Fluffy...

from possible disaster.

A little over an hour later,
a third call came in.

Hello. .

Where the h-hell are y'all?
I called over an hour ago.

Sir, calm down.

I told you we will have a rescue unit
there as soon as possible.

What? Well, what the hell
am I supposed to do?

They done whupped my natural behind,
and they looting and pillaging!

[Scoffs]
Sir, do you have any home insurance?

Home insur...
Oh, they did it now.

They done stole my Al Green records.

[Shatner]
Forty-five minutes later, still another call.

- Hello. .
- There's a suspicious-looking man
in our neighborhood.

He's coming towards my door.

Help me! Help.

- Are you white?
- Yes! And Republican.

Don't worry, ma'am.
A unit is on its way.

[Shatner] Miraculously, the criminal
was apprehended and taken away.

Hey, let me go, man! I'm the one
that called you in the first place!

I crawled over 'cause I knew
you'd come to this neighborhood.

Man, they stole my Al Green records!
I ain't no Rodney King.

The suspect seemed to be suffering
from delusions and was taken to sick bay.

Bones, how's the prisoner?

I think he'll be all right, Jim, but I won't know
anything definite for a couple of hours.

I haven't got a couple ofhours!

Sorry.
That concludes tonight's show.

Remember, the rescue unit
is always there to serve you...

as long as you live
in the right neighborhood.

Good night.

Scotty, one to beam up.

[Announcer]Join us next time
for another Rescue Whenever.

- [Woman] Where you going, baby?
- I'll be back in a minute.

Well, hurry up.

[Woman]
Where you goin'? I was so close.

Don't worry, baby.
Keep the sheets warm.

- Did you get some?
- Yeah, I got some... lockjaw.

I hear that. Wait a minute.
Damn, man! I gotta get home.

- My wife's gonna k*ll me.
- Would you relax?

I'm trying. Oh, man!
I left my wedding ring in there too!

I am telling you to chill.
I know just the place.

They will take care of you.
Man, I've been going there for years.

- Ha-ha!
- Where are we?

Man, this is called
the One Night Stand.

- You mean everybody in here...
- That is right.

All these guys cheated
on their wives and girlfriends.

See, this is a place where we come
to cover our tracks.

Come on.
I'll show you around. Yo, Murray!

- I want you to meet my man here Greg.
- How are you cats?

Chasing the birds again?
All right. New here, huh?

Yeah. Look, I lost my wedding ring,
and I am panicking.

All right.
We got , and karats.

Uh, well, mine was gold-plated.

Let me guess... Home Shopping Club.

- You're right.
- Don't worry about it. We got tons of those.

Hey! Hey, this is a perfect match!

Now, did you forget anything else?

Well, actually I did.
I forgot my, um...

- Boxers or briefs?
- Briefs.

- Lightly stained?
- Yeah.

Hey, man. This is great!
But I still don't have an excuse.

Check it out. Murray, kick it.

- The usual, Bob?
- You got it.

- [Tape: Beeping]
- Hey, Maggie? Yeah, I'm still in surgery.

- Doctor, she's hemorrhaging!
- Suture!

Damn it, honey. I gotta go save a life.
Kiss the kids for me.

Hey, that's great,
but what about me?

- Okay, let me guess. She's a crier, right?
- Yeah.

All right.
Flowers should take care of that.

Gets sentimental sometimes?

Well, I'm really embarrassed to say this,
but she's into baby talk pretty deep.

Then we're gonna need the big g*ns
on this one. Please don't be mad.

This place thinks of everything!
I guess now I can go home.

- Wait a minute. Did you wear protection?
- No, actually.

Come on, man. Hey, Doc!
You got a minute?

Oh, sure, Bob, sure.
Got your test results back.

You're super-clean, my brother.

Here, and I got
some ointment for you.

- This will take care of that little itch.
- Thanks, Doc.

See, Doc Willoughby here
runs the health clinic.

He can cure you of any
social disease imaginable.

And he's had almost all of them.

- Whoo!
- Man, you guys have thought of everything.

It is a rough world out there.

- Brothers gotta stick together.
- I hear you.

Phase one alert.

My wife hired a private detective.

They got pictures,
hard evidence, you name it.

Get the lawyers.
Set up a dummy corporation.

We gotta hide this man's assets
but quick.

- What's the name of your ex-wife-to-be?
- Uh, Robin Givens.

I'm calling Witness Relocation.
Doc, this man needs a new face.

No problem. I can rebuild that.

The next time I decide to hit it and quit it,
I'm coming to the One Night Stand.

- Look here, let me borrow your membership.
- Oh, no, my brother.

You got to get your own.

- Do the heartless hang out here?
- [Laughing]

♪♪ [Dance]

- Get rid of the loot.
- Are you crazy?
That's half a million dollars in here!

It's evidence, man! Get rid of it.

- Come on.

Hey, what the hell hit me in my head?

Oh, wow. Look at all this money.

Damn, I feel like Donald Tr*mp...

except I'm standing in a Dumpster
and I smell real bad.

[Cackling]

I'm rich! I'm rich! Yee-ha!

[Whimpering]

Hip-hip and Cheerios and all that
Rice Krispies, my dearJenkins.

Good morning, sir.

Good morning, sir.

Uh, your clothes have arrived
from the dry cleaners.

Oh, great. What about
that dirty, sweaty urine smell?

They added it, sir, just as you asked.

Perfect.

- Now that I'm rich, you know...
- [Flies Buzzing]

These flies just ain't flies anymore.

They're dependants.

Ha! 'Cept that one.

Say, Jenkins, you get my wheels
out of the shop?

Yes, sir.

Very good. All right.
They got my cart phone in here.

I'd better get my broker on the line.

[Doorbell Rings]

We're here to see a Mr. Anton Jackson.

This way, please.

Hey, listen, bitch!

I said I want a hundred shares of ripple!

I know it's goin' down,
but believe me, I know my ripple.

It'll be comin' up real soon.

Uh, Mr. Jackson...

you've recently come
into a lot of money...

and you haven't paid any taxes.

We're here to examine your assets.

Oh, all right.
Well, you can look at my asset...

but he gonna have to turn his head.

- [Clears Throat]
- Anyway, never mind that.

What it that over there?

Oh, I'll show you. Shall we?

This here is my art collection.

And, uh, how much did you pay for that?

- That cost me $ , .
- $ , ?

$ , .
It's a scratch-and-sniff, see?

Whoa, that smell like me.

Never mind about that.

Now, this... is that...
is that a butterfly collection?

Oh, this.
No, this is my booger collection.

Oh, man.

I got this one in ' during the march.

I was very political back then.

- This I took off this little kid's nose.
- Excuse me!

- Oh, I thought that was me!
- [Gasps]

You know,
that ain't too ladylike, you know.

Do you wanna get married, doll?

Getting back to your audit...

our calculations show that there
is still $ unaccounted for.

Well, I gave to Charity.

- Which charity?
- Charity Winslow.

She work the corner
of th and th Avenue.

And Clarence wiped the other .

You mean he stole it.

No, he ran out of toilet paper.
He wiped it.

- I still got it, if you want...
- No, no, no.

That's okay.
Anyway, you owe the I.R.S. $ , .

It looks like we're gonna
have to seize everything you own.

No, no, no.
I ain't going out like Redd Foxx.

I happen to know
that according to Article - ...

of the United States tax code...

an individual is entitled...

to . percent...

of his lifetime income...

which is compounded
by the interest earned...

over the same period of time.

And how did you know that?

Well, I slept behind H&R Block
for about two years.

That's reason ...
my back hurt.

- [Laughing]
- Okay, we'll let you keep the, uh, portrait.

But I'll take that gold belt
and all of your other hard assets.

You don't want my hard asset.

- [Laughs]
- [Clearing Throat]

Okay. I guess you do.

- Oh, man!
- [Gasps]

I tell you what...
you can have my liquid asset too.

Hey, look, man.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

- We're not heartless, man. You can have that.
- And leave.

- Go.
- Leave.

- Away.
- Go.
