[bunniefuu]

[Knock on door]

Open up the door, gina.

Open up the door.

Where he is?

Where you at, boy?

Where you at? Oh!

Ooh, damn!

Who was in there?

Ooh.

Ohh.

Where is the boy? Where is he, gina?

He's not here. Why? What happened?

I just got my hair done,

Then martin's going to walk by

And hit me with a snowball?

Oh, no! I don't play games.

Trust me, sheneneh. He is not here.

He better not be here. He better not be here.

Look at your hair.

He messed you up.

I know you ain't laughing at me,

Rudolph the red-bone reindeer.

You go out in the snowstorm, and you are lost.

"Gina! Where is gina?"

"I'm over here."

"Didn't see you."

That's it.

You know what? Get out!

Take your weave-sicles and go.

What?

Did I stutter?

You--you...

Uh-uh, girl. No, you--

You--

Sss! Sss!

Yo, babe!

Sheneneh come up here looking for me?

We almost got into a fight.

She said she was going to cap me.

Girl, please. Sheneneh ain't capping nobody.

She's just tripping, babe.

All right, look here. Get your coat.

School's almost out.

Let's go hit fourth-graders

In the back of the head with snowballs.

Lets roll.

Martin, look, I really don't have the time.

I've got to finish all these christmas cards,

And I'm just not in the mood.

Get into the mood. Get into the spirit.

I got a great christmas planned for us.

I say we sleep on christmas day.

Then the next day,

We get up and go buy each other gifts.

What do you mean the next day?

Gina, the way I figure, right,

Is that nobody really knows when jesus was born,

So for % off...

I say he was born on the th...

Th, th--whatever works with your schedule.

You know, the sales.

"The sales." That sounds very christmasy, martin.

Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.

Look! It's from my mom and dad.

Look at their house at christmas.

See those decorations? That is beautiful.

That is really nice.

Decorations? Is that what the hang-up--

Decorations, girl. I got decorations.

Gina, see, I was going to wait a few days

'Cause I didn't want to bring it out now,

But if it will lift your holiday spirit...

Decorations.

Let me get this tree.

There's your tree.

Now we got to decorate it.

Come by with the little boop.

Let's decorate your tree.

Merry christmas.

That's just great, martin.

Don't punk out on me now.

We agreed that we'd spend christmas together--

You and me alone.

Come on. Where's the smile?

♪ Deck the halls with boughs of holly... ♪

Carolers!

Yeah! See? It's already beginning

To sound like christmas around here.

You got to dream.

Check it out. Aw...

Yeah!

Martin, man. Look, man.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, makes raisin pudding

Like your mama.

Oh, thank you, tommy,

But ain't no raisins in the pudding.

Hey, martin, you got any more of this duct tape, man?

I'm trying to finish wrapping big shirley's gift.

In newspaper? Cole, that's cheap.

Tommy, it's not just newspaper, o.k.?

It's the food section.

Gift on the inside,

Coupons on the outside.

It's the gift that keeps on giving.

It's in your heart.

Martin, I got to talk to you.

I just came from gina's apartment,

And she's really depressed.

Damn! You just walked in. Now I'm depressed.

See a pattern?

Shut up, martin! I'm serious.

She's sick of this place.

She wants to be with her parents for christmas.

We talked about it. She wants to be with her man.

You know why? Because she loves me.

Know what I'm saying?

No, no, no, no. I don't think so.

She probably only agreed

Because you bullied her into it.

Face it-- you're selfish.

Hey. If my woman wants to go to philly,

I'll take her to philly,

But I'm not selfish.

You'd really do that for her?

Yes. Because that's who I am.

Usually around this time,

I throw y'all out of my apartment,

But, see, it's christmas.

I'm full of the holiday spirit.

You know what?

Y'all can stay here. I'm going to leave.

Just make sure you take care of my place.

Whoo!

And , , , , .

You know, you are right.

Sometimes I can be a bully.

Why should I change who I am?

Follow me.

That way.

Make a left or whatever.

And, look, y'all be careful out there.

Holiday traffic is a b*tch.

I don't know, martin.

Where did we go wrong?

You know, I'm trying to bring everybody together,

You know?

Black, white, everybody.

We're all brothers.

We're all bro's, you know?

So I went with my friends down to the projects

To sing christmas carols.

Man, they got up on my a*s.

Man, sean, I'm sorry. What did you sing?

I'm dreaming of a white christmas.

Sorry, sean.

Black folks are tired of that.

Y'all had white christmases

For years.

Excuse me. Hello. Yeah. Yeah. Hi.

Uh-huh. So you don't have any tickets to philly?

None?

Yeah, yeah, thank you.

Damn! Every flight out of town to philly

Is booked.

Why don't you drive, martin?

Stan, man, please, all right?

All right? It is hours from detroit to philly.

No, I ain't trying to drive all night long.

If you want to go by bus,

I got some frequent rider miles

I can sell you.

Of course I did promise them tickets to my mama,

But if you got the cash,

My mama can travel by thumb.

You know what I mean?

Stan, that's cold, man.

But that's your mama.

Got the tickets in my office.

It's cold outside.

Get her some gloves if she's going to thumb.

I'll pick them up in your office.

I'm sorry I'm late,

But the traffic downtown was terrible.

I got to get back to the office

For this stupid christmas party.

Would you slow down?

Where's your holiday spirit?

Sit on down here, woman.

Now your man got something to say.

Ahem.

[Hyperventilating]

Oh, no, it ain't that. It ain't that.

That's down the line.

That's down the line.

We're still working some things out.

You say you're going to work--

Say what you're going to say.

Till I can follow you,

We're going to put that on hold.

Baby, I've been noticing you've been down lately.

Oh, yes, your man notices

Every one of your little moods.

I said to myself,

"Why don't I make my woman's day?

Why don't I do something

To lift her holiday spirits?"

Gina, we're going home.

Baby, we are going to philly.

Really, martin?

Yes. Yes, we are, baby.

Who's the man? Who's the man?

You're the man!

Thank you very much.

You love me, don't you?

Yes, I do.

Baby, when are we going on the plane?

Uh, let's rap a taste about the plane, gina.

It's very dangerous to fly at this time.

This bus trip is just what I needed--

Seeing the snow and the christmas lights.

It was just beautiful.

Beautiful, gina. Lovely. Christmas.

Excuse me, baby,

But we have been here stuck an hour, gina.

Baby, excuse me. Let me find out what's going on.

Martin, be calm, please. Calm down.

You did this for your lady.

It's christmas. Hoo!

Hello. How you doing, partner?

Ahem.

Hello. How you doing? Good to meet you.

Hello! Ding! Ding!

Hello. How you doing?

I was just wondering

When the next bus to philly

Was going to roll.

I'd say sometime tomorrow.

Excuse me. I don't understand.

What do you mean sometime tomorrow?

I mean the blizzard. We're snowed in.

Looks like we'll be spending christmas eve right here.

Fa la la la la.

Stop breathing on the glass.

Beat it.

Attention, travelers and transients,

In case you're wondering, it's still snowing.

This is the worst christmas ever.

We're not going to be with my family.

We're stuck in a bus station.

Oh, come on, babe. It's not that bad.

All right, come on, we'll get home, gina.

How, martin?

I don't know, baby. I am lying, o.k.,

Just to keep you happy.

You can't call me on it.

Thank you. That helped.

It's not that bad. Look around.

This bus station has all the christmas you need.

Look over there. You got the tree.

Ha ha. Santa.

There goes santa.

I just seen ray charles on a bicycle!

Why's santa got to be like that?

Ah, boo, come on.

That's not the real santa.

That's the bus station santa.

Break out the sandwiches you packed. Come on.

Let's have christmas eve dinner, me and my baby.

Everything's all right. We cool.

I'm going to tear this up. I know that.

You going to eat all that?

Miss gerri, what are you doing here?

I'm going to atlantic city

To find me a high roller.

But what about that sandwich?

You want a little bit of this, huh?

You want some of this sandwich,

Don't you, miss gerri?

Well, you know what?

Last time I saw you, you had an attitude,

So I ain't trying to hear nothing

About sharing no sandwich with no miss gerri.

Not now. Not ever.

New jack, please!

I'm a old woman.

But if you don't give me some of that sandwich,

I'll bust your head open with this bag of nickels.

You want some of me? You want some of me?

Give her the sandwich.

She's got to be years old.

Baby, is reachable if she watch her attitude.

Give her the sandwich. It's christmas.

O.k., Fine. For you, for you, for you,

I'll give her the sandwich.

Miss gerri, here.

Merry christmas to miss gerri.

The sandwich is for you.

Merry christmas.

Tuna?

I don't eat no damn tuna!

Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh.

No. Forget it. Baby, let it go.

She took my--

Baby, baby, baby, let it go.

She done stomped my tuna, baby.

Look, baby, look.

It's after midnight. That means it's christmas.

Let's open our gifts. We might feel better.

Look at my sandwich!

Let it go, baby. It's gone!

You right. You right.

Ain't nothing I can do about that.

O.k. You know what? Ooh, calm down.

All right, baby, you are right.

Let's open our gifts.

Gina, I brought you something, girl.

I want you to wear it for me.

I know it'll cheer me up.

You know what it is...

Hold up! Hold up!

Now, uh, somebody up in here stole my luggage.

If I don't get it back in the next seconds,

I'm burning the place down.

[Squeaky whining]

[Both whining]

Excuse me. Excuse me, please.

Ding! Hello!

Thank goodness.

I was wondering if you had any change

So I could get my lady some hot chocolate.

Read the sign.

Yeah, I understand that,

But my lady would like some hot chocolate.

You have some right there.

I ain't got no change.

You doing that on purpose, man!

Because you know you're behind that glass!

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

What is the problem?

Baby, the man got change,

And he won't give it to me.

Martin, look, look,

Let me handle this, o.k.?

You don't know how to be diplomatic.

I've been trying to be diplomatic.

I got you.

Hello!

Ding, ding. Hi. Hi.

Listen, um, I'm a little cold,

And I need to get some change

For some hot chocolate.

Please?

I said I don't have any change.

Now get out of here.

Now get out of here. That's what he said.

That's what he said.

Knock, knock.

Hi. Hi. Hello. How are you?

Listen, I really could not hear you.

Could you move a little closer, please?

The glass is thick.

What are you, slow?

You just get off the short yellow bus?

I said, we don't have--

Give me some change! Give me some change!

Whoo!

Baby, way to go, girl!

Busting the man up on the window.

I am proud of you, baby. You stood up.

Look at him now.

He wants somebody to feel sorry for him.

You shoulda gave up the change.

You brought it on yourself!

Baby, girl, got the change.

I'm getting ready to get you a hot chocolate.

Everything will be all right.

Martin. All right?

Everything isnot all right.

It's ruined, martin.

We are in hell, o.k?

Look around us. Look at this.

Look. Look. Look!

This is a freak show!

Free h*'s? Where's the free h*'s?

You see what I'm talking?

This is what I'm talking about.

We are not having a christmas.

Baby, listen to this.

How can you say

We're not having a christmas, gina?

I don't care if we're in philadelphia,

Detroit, wherever, gina...

As long as I'm with you.

Long as we got each other,

We've got christmas.

Because you are my gift.

You, boo, all right?

That was so sweet. Martin...

Come on, babe.

You're right.

You're right.

Come on.

That's all right, girl. We fine here, you know?

Martin?

Yeah, baby?

Honey, turn around.

What's happening? Whazzup?

Is that your wzup shirt?

W-z-u-p...

Yo, they heard us.

That's our stuff!

Cut them off that way!

Martin, baby.

Martin, wake up!

Honey, no!

Honey, wake up. It's christmas day.

Oh, man, what?

Hey, honey.

Ooh, stretch it out.

Whazzup, baby?

I got you something.

Oh, yeah?

Oh, boo, you didn't have to get me no gift.

Oh! What'd you get me, girl?

What'd you get? What'd you get?

Oh, toothpaste and a toothbrush, huh?

You can get to the brush later,

But now you need to crack that toothpaste open.

Oh, oh, oh.

Bust it o-pen.

Oh, I'm on tart time? I'm on tart time?

Girl, you got a gift both of us could use.

Right now, your breath smells

Like you got a lot on your mind, baby.

Just squoosh it. Just squoosh it.

And possibly the family. You know?

One for you

And one for me.

Bah! Load it in...

Rub it around...

Fresh mouth.

Who wants some of the fresh mouth?

I want some of the fresh mouth.

I want some of the fresh m--

Ooh, girl, blowing like you blowing.

Ooh, damn.

The bus for philly will be departing immediately.

That's us, baby!

Get your stuff. I got that.

Come on, girl, 'cause if we stuck here,

You going to be mad again.

Miss gerri, the bus is coming.

To hell with the bus.

I'm hitching a ride with a high roller.

Cadillac's all gassed up,

And we ready to roll!
