Hi. I'm Loomis Simmons.

Ladies, are you stuck
in a dead-end job?

Do you put in hours and hours
for a minimum wage...

while the executives get rich
from your blood, sweat and tears?

I hope so. 'Cause I can
help you achieve your dreams...

and all you have to do is...

The plan is simple.
You get me a job at your company.

Then let Loomis do the rest.

I'll pinch your "bootais-maximus..."

I'll whisper sweet nasties all up
and through your earlobes.

I even expose myself.
But don't worry. It's no bother.

Then you file a sexual harassment lawsuit
against the company...

and give Loomis half the money.

It's just that simple.
Observe, won't you?

- Mail call for Miss Hooters.
- Thanks, Loomis.

Oh, how clumsy of me.

Would you mind bending over
to, uh, pick those up?

Okay, Loomis.

Oh, my, my!
Look, the peaks of Mount "Bootey."

Hey, you sexually harassed me.
I'm going to sue this company.

Of course,
that was just a sample.

In reality, this would go on
for days and days.

But don't take Loomis's word for it.

Listen to some of my satisfied customers.

Loomis grabbed my ample breasts...

and we split $ , .

Thanks, Loomis.

Loomis climbed on me
at the water cooler...

and rode me through personnel
and we split $ , .

Thanks, Loomis.
Yee-haw! Ride 'em, cowboy!

What you waitin' for, girls? Hurry and call
now, 'cause I haven't had any in weeks.

And if you order now,

[Announcer] Live from the inner city...

it's the East Hollywood Squares.

With Michael Dorn...

Minister Louis Farrakhan...

the Cream of Wheat Guy...

hot young directors,
the Green Triplets...

Jaleel White,
Joe and La Toya Jackson...

Joycelyn Elders,
Rupaul and Stedman.

And now the host of
the East Hollywood Squares...

Peter Marshall.

Thank you, Kenny. Welcome to
the East Hollywood Squares. Hello, stars.

Nice to see each
and every one of you.

I'd like you to meet our players.
First, Michelle Lassman.

Michelle, welcome to our show.
What do you do, dear, for a living?

Oh, l-I administer enemas
to constipated pets, Peter.

- Oh, that's nice. Good for you
and continued success.
- Thank you.

Yes. Uh, this gentleman
is Allan Stevenson.

- Allan, welcome to the show.
What do you do, sir?
- What?

Oh, uh, my name's Allan Stevenson...

and I am a test volunteer
for prescription dr*gs in laboratories.

Thank you.
And welcome to our show.

Yes, now, Allan, uh, you won the...

Allan, y-you won the toss backstage, sir,
so I want you to pick a star.

I would like to begin by taking Rupaul.

Oh, take me, Allan.
Take me.

- Now, Rupaul...
- [Rupaul Indistinct]

Uh, Rupaul, here's the question.

In the movie The Crying Game...

what is the surprise
in The Crying Game.

Surprise, Allan.
Is this a trick question?

There was no surprise in that film.

L-l-I, uh, I disagree.

Good. That's right. The surprise
was that the female lead Dil...

turned out to be a man
and "X" gets the square.

Oh, wait. Allan, I knew all along
that Dil had a pickle.

- Michelle, quickly, pick a star.
- I'll take that cute little Urkel kid, please, Peter.

Jaleel White.
Yes, TV's, uh, Urkel. Jaleel.

[Audience Cheering]

Uh, if you don't mind my sayin' it,
Jaleel, you... you don't look so well.

Well, you know,
I'm going through a messy divorce, Peter.

Never marry a broad
you met at a strip club.

I see. Well, thank you
for that advice.

Now here's your question.
How old are you?

[Giggling]
I'm .

- Oh, I disagree.
- [Peter] That's good.

'CauseJaleel is actually,
on St. Swithin's Day, will be .

Of course I'm not .
If you believe that, baby...

I've got a time-share at Florence and Normandy
you might be interested in.

Well, thank you very much.
Circle gets the square. Allan, back to you, sir.

- Uh, geez! There's a lot of geese in here.
- Yeah.

- I will take Louis Farrakhan, please.
- Certainly. Welcome, Minister.

- Mr. Peter Marshall.
- [Audience Cheering, Applauding]

Oh, no. I don't need your claps.
I don't need your claps.

Mr. Peter Marshall,
you can save your breath.

Give me an "X," an "X" right now,
and I will wear it proudly.

Well, Minister, we have to
ask you a question first, sir.

I will not have this. I will not stand for
an "O" to be on this proud black square.

See, because the "O" equals zero, see.

It is null and it is void.

Well, listen, pal, I'm not gonna argue
with that. "X" gets the square.

Lucky break for you.
Could have been a bad break for me.

- A-Assalamu Alaikum.
- All right. Michelle...

[Farrakhan]
I'll bust your ass, boy.! I will bust his ass.!

Uh, thank you very much.
Let's move along here.

- Michelle, pick a star, please.
- I'll take Michael Dorn for the win.

From TV's Star Trek, ladies and gentlemen,
The Next Generation.

- Uh, Michael.
- [Audience Cheering]

Nice to see you, Michael.
And I see you're still in your make-up.

What make up do you speak of,
White Human?

Never mind.
Here's your question, Michael.

The Enterprise leaves Rigel
at the speed of warp five.

The Klingon Destroyer Trog
leaves Antares at the speed of warp six.

Now which craft will
reach Deep Space first?

Hmm. I will say the Enterprise.

- The Enterprise. Michelle?
- I disagree.

Correct.
Circle gets the square and the game.

I have been dishonored
and to a Klingon honor is all.

The only honorable
solution... is death.

- [Whirs]
- Ohh!

Well, that does it for this session
of the East Hollywood Squares.

Thank you, stars.
Thank you, players.

See you here next time for more fun
on the East Hollywood Squares.

[Peter] I said clean that up.
Will somebody clean that up?
