06x05 - Right My Wrongs

[bunniefuu]

In the year that I've
been with the Gammas,

this brotherhood has given me so much.

But you earned your five stars.

So your Gamma name is The General.

- ALL: Ooh.
- Confidence...

Thinking about giving up?

Pride,

camaraderie,

responsibility,

and pink eye.

[LAUGHTER]

Nonetheless,

these guys have become
like a family to me,

and everybody brings something
different to the table.

All right, the new dryers
should be here Tuesday,

since the previous
dryers, as we all know...

were pooped in.

[ALL GROANING]

May the still-unknown perpetrator

find his brand-new
off-white Jordans scuffed.

ALL: Amen.

Amen, brother.

Amen.

That's Big Boy,

whose name is less
reflective of his size

and more his state of mind.

That right there is his fifth
soul food parfait of the day.

And then there's No Shirt Nick,

who brings a positive attitude
and radical body positivity.

And that boy there is Too Tall Tyree.

He helps us keep our intramural
basketball title on lock.

And then there's this clown.

You know how there's that one cousin

who pees in the shower

and always takes a plate
before everyone else?

That's Cole.

Everybody calls him Sketch,
because he likes to draw,

and because... he is.

Now for our next order of business:

nominating a new Gamma president.

- That's right, Big Boy.
- Right? Right?

Who want it? Hmm?

- Who want it?
- Yes, sir.

[CLEARS THROAT] [CLAPS] Look.

I would be honored to serve my brethren.

- The Gammas! Yes, sir.
- You already know.

I'ma bring hope and change
to this bitch like it's .

- Like it's ' !
- [ALL EXCLAIMING]

Like it's ' !

I'm with it.

That right there is Mr. Popular,

for all the reasons you would think.

[LAUGHING] Okay!

Mr. Popular like it's ' .

[LAUGHTER]

So... but wait, wait,
wait. Wait, hold on.

He runnin' unopposed?

Hold up. No one else is running?

What this frat needs is
someone with integrity,

a passion for giving back,
and strong leadership.

As I shared my four-point plan

covering both the macro and micro

of how I would elevate the Gammas,

I knew I had my brothers
in the palm of my hand.

So as your president,

I think that I can
serve this brotherhood

by leading us into the future

and preparing us for future success.

[SNAPPING, APPLAUSE] Thank you guys.

Thank you, thank you.

It's light work.

Nice.

See, I think what The General had to say

sounds... pretty good.

But I'm not here to talk to
y'all today about pretty good.

I'm here to talk to y'all
today about being unlimited.

What the hell is he talking about?

Unlimited? What is
he, a cell phone plan?

[SCOFFS]

See, my opponent wants to talk about

unbalanced budgets.

I want unlimited budgets.

No.

That's just not how money works.

"And for what?" you ask.

Unlimited parties.

[ALL EXCLAIMING]

And... now hold on.

And do you know who
will be at those parties?

ALL: Who?

Unlimited b*tches.

- [ALL EXCLAIMING]
- It's just that easy.

There are, like, ,
b*tches at this school, max.

That's a limited number of b*tches.

We are the Gammas.

We are unlimited.

- Yes! Yes, we are!
- Yes!

Mr. Popular out.

[ALL CHEERING]

Unlimited!

ALL: Unlimited! Unlimited!

Unlimited!

Working on your new book?

"Cal You Too: How to
Stay on Campus Forever."

For your information, little Luka,
I have a full night planned.

I'm gonna be grading papers

and enjoying some of these
natural wine selections

Doug is offering.

And rating them from
funky to [BLEEP]-up.

Mm, I hope my O-Chem professor

grades our tests on a
similarly wobbly curve.

[GROANS] I wish I saw you guys

before I used Doug's free printer

to print copies of these.

But what do you think? Huh?

Is this the face of someone
you'd vote to be president?

You look like you belong on
the front of an oatmeal box.

Ooh. Great breakfast.

And also good for you and good to you.

That's a fire slogan right there.

- Boom.
- You're gonna lose.

Rude, but that is not an option,

okay, and I cannot let someone win

who has based their entire platform

around the word "unlimited."

Listen, Andre.

If this means a lot to you,

you have to do whatever it takes to win.

- But, like, cleanly, right?
- Yes.

Uh, most of the campaigns I've seen,

the dirtiest were sadly
the most successful, so...

- Hmm.
- And if you want to win,

you need to find a way
to take this guy down.

No one is squeaky clean, Andre,

and if they are, make sure they're not.

Catch my drift?

But if it's for the greater good,

it's not that bad, right?

Yes. It's worse, actually.

Look, I think these
flyers show who you are,

and in my experience,
that's who you should be.

Take it from someone who's
been in the trenches, man.

A good policy is a good policy.

Honesty is the best policy.

Exactly, so start getting honest

about your opponent's dirty laundry.

I don't know,

but I do think that
your strategy has merits.

I'm gonna go run me
some more flyers, though.

Yeah, but trust me.

Stop printing flyers and
start stealing emails.

That's horrible advice.

It's great advice.

- [SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
- _

All this talk of running
has got me hungry.

Kiela, how do you feel about
hitting up Pop Dat Pupusa?

Are you trying to take me to
an El Salvadorian sex party?

Because I'm in.

No, it's a food truck at
this gallery opening downtown.

Oh, yeah, I'll go.

♪ ♪

Despite Kiela's advice to get dirty,

a Gamma man is a man of integrity,

and that's how I would debate.

Like Michelle Obama said,

"When they go low, we go high."

And that's why I'm
saying unlimited water.

[SCOFFS]

I hate to break this to you, bro,

but we're in a drought.

Which is why

I'll bring the Gammas
unlimited drought relief.

That's not...

that's not even a thing, Darius.

Okay. All right.

Now let's move on to the next topic:

The Chapter Pledge Initiative.

As president, how do each of you plan

to spike new recruit interest
and get our pledge numbers up?

That's an excellent question, Big Boy,

and a topic I hold near and dear.

I plan to start the
recruitment process early and...

Man, quit playin'.

Ain't nobody tryin' to hear all that.

Look, the only recruitment
strategy we need is word of mouth.

Now holla if you hear me!

Unlimited everything!

ALL: Unlimited everything!

Unlimited everything!

Unlimited everything!
Unlimited everything!

You want to win?

You need to find a way
to take this guy down.

ALL: Unlimited everything!

Unlimited everything!

Okay, okay, okay!

What about unlimited truths?

Huh? Who's ready to hear that?

[ALL MURMURING] Yeah.

I know who dropped the
booty b*mb in the dryer.

- Oh, sh*t, that nasty sh*t?
- What?

- Oh, hell no.
- That's right.

- Mm-hmm.
- Who did it then?

And I hate to do this.

I really hate to do this,
because this is someone

I have a lot... you know what?

Actually, matter of fact,

I got unlimited love for this man.

But it was none other than
my opponent, Mr. Popular.

[ALL EXCLAIMING]

Cap. I did not have stool
relations with that dryer.

Does bottomless Michelada Monday night

a month ago ring a bell to you?

[ALL GASPING, MURMURING]

You were what a white woman
would describe as shwasted.

Did you or did you not wake
up on the laundry room floor?

Yeah, but see... but that's the thing.

- That... but... but...
- [ALL EXCLAIMING]

"But... but... but... but... but... "

Yeah.

Your butt was the problem.

[ALL EXCLAIMING]

ALL: General! General! General!

General! General!

General!

Sorry, Mrs. Obama,

but when they go low, I go lower.
