02x19 - The Lying Game

[bunniefuu]

Ladies and gentlemen,

as you know, this is
career education week.

These are the results
of your aptitude tests.

They'll show you

what careers you're
best suited for.

"Policewoman"?

"Furniture salesman"?

"Teacher"? Oh, no.

Uh, Mr. Grozowtski,
this is ridiculous.

I couldn't even

teach Chelsea how to whistle.

See? Nothing.

Well, I think these
tests are very accurate.

Took one myself
when I was your age.

And it said you
should be a teacher?

Swimsuit model.

Anyway, you'll notice

attached to your results
is an assignment card.

You'll have half a
day off tomorrow

to spend with someone

who works in your career.

"Detective Ramirez."

"Mrs. Applebaum."
That's Cory's teacher.

Oh, man! I spend enough
time with him already.

"Big al, the sofa king"?

Who am I gonna sell a sofa to?

Yo, Rae?

Did you just have a vision?

Yeah. And I think I
got your first customers.

yep, that's me.

A new sofa isn't just a
piece of new furniture.

It's an extension of you.

So, when people sit on it,

it's like they're
sitting on... you.

Look, Eddie, I'm sorry.

We want to support
your future career,

but we don't need a new sofa.

Whoa, whoa, before you say
no, why don't you both just...

take a seat right here?

Think about it.

Fine, Eddie,

but we're not going to change

our minds.

Oh, I'll take that.

Oh!

Can you imagine that?!

Maybe it is time that
we get a new sofa.

Yeah.

Man! Come on, Mr. B.

Let me help you out of here.

Come on, Mrs. B. Help me.

Well, look, don't
you guys worry,

'cause I'm going to
hook you right on up.

I was born to sell sofas.

How can I ruin your life?

Honey? Your kids are home.

Why do they got to be my kids?

That's enough!

What is going on here?

Mom, I should have
never went to Cory's class.

I knew he was going to
act like a little monster.

Me? You couldn't
wait to get in there

and tell us what
to do, bossy boots.

Bratty pants!

Okay.

Nasty.

I see career day
was a big success.

She got me in trouble
with the principal.

Oh, please! You got
your own self in trouble.

Uh, how much trouble
did you guys get into?

Okay.

Just keep your mouths shut,
and let me do all the talking.

Thanks, detective Ramirez.

I had a great time.

Ten-four, over and out. Whoo!

Okay, you guys,

the first thing I learned
about police work

is do not play with handcuffs,

'cause they are super
hard to get out of.

Ow.

Thanks for the tip, Chelsea.

But something went on

in Cory's class today,

and we're trying to
get to the bottom of it.

Well... this sounds
like my first case.

Have a seat.

Have a seat.

Okay, listen up, you two.

We can do this the easy way...

Or we can do this the hard way.

What's it gonna be?

Can I just tell
my story, please?

Okay. I think I broke her down.

So, anyway, here is
exactly what happened.

I came into Cory's class
with the best of intentions.

Class, we have a very
special visitor today... Raven!

Here you go, Mrs. Applebaum.

Oh!

I am here to spread joy

to all of the children.

Oh!

Oh!

Raven, I'll be
retiring this year,

and I was just showing the
class this wonderful portrait

the parents association
presented to me.

It's an honor that I'll
treasure for the rest of my life.

Oh! Mrs. Applebaum!

You know what?

Why don't you take a break?

Oh!

Goodness knows, you deserve it!

Larry, can I inspire
your life in any way?

No.

I'm just gazing
upon your beauty.

Well, gaze on.

But not for too long.

We have to start our
geography lesson.

It's snack time!

Snack time? Well, um...

Nutrition is very important.

Cookies!

Oh! Uh... Oh, Cory, Cory?

Why don't you save
some for the other children?

Did you say "smash some"?

No problem.

Oh, Cory!

Cory, why?

Why, Cory?

So... There I was...

Making the best of
a horrible situation

that Cory created.

Jackpot! I found the candy

for applebaum's
retirement party, baby!

Let's get sugared-up
and cause trouble!

No... Here, here!

Yay!

Get it, get it!
Move up, move up!

Cory?

Cory, give me the candy!

You heard her, people.

Give her the candy.

What?

Stop, children, stop!

Children? Children, stop.

Don't let one bad apple

spoil all you good fruits.

I'm sorry, Raven.

How about we have
some juice to make up?

Goodness, Cory, I
knew that there was good

deep down inside of you.

Oh!

Guess you didn't look
deep enough, did you?

Cory, listen.

I know that your bad
behavior is a cry for help,

so come here.

Let me hug you.

No!

I want to be bad!

No, Cory, come here...

Look at what you did!

Cory, oh, sweetie!

Do not run from love!

Oh!

And that's exactly
what happened.

Cory, you better have
a good explanation.

Okay.

The truth is, everything
Raven said was a lie.

Oh, oh, oh...

Cory, Cory, could
you be more specific?

Like, what happened?

Okay, this is how
it really went down.

It all started when
sweet Mrs. Applebaum

was showing us
her beautiful portrait.

Class, we have a very
special visitor today... Raven!

How y'all doing?

Don't worry, that's my
lovable sister Raven.

Her bark's worse than her bite.

Raven,

I'll be retiring this year, and
I was just showing the class

this wonderful portrait

the parents association
presented to me.

It's an honor that I'll
treasure for the rest of my life.

Stop your blubbering, applebaum.

You're a disgrace!

Get out of here.

I ain't playing with you.

What are you staring at?

The face of evil?

It's time to start the lesson.

Excuse me, sister dearest,

not to disrespect
your authority,

but it is snack time.

Snack time?!

I'm sorry!

It's my job... I
was only thinking

of the other children.

They look so hungry.

Fine.

You might as well get
some meat on your bones.

It'll be more of
you to boss around.

Give me that!

If you want a snack, line up.

This is all you're
getting, so make it last.

Please... I'm so weak,

may I have some m-more?

More?!

Sister, please, he'll never
make it through the winter.

Can I at least give
him one marshmallow?

Maybe just one.

But... He has to
catch it in his mouth.

I'm such a bossy boots.

Snack time... Is over!

Oh...!

I'm melting!

I'm melting!

This is all your fault!

Mrs. Applebaum!

Let me get out of here!

Stay back.

Stay back, you evil spirit!

Stay back!

And that's exactly
what happened.

I am so disappointed in you.

You happy?

You see? You broke mom's heart.

I am talking
about both of you...

Making up stories to
get each other in trouble.

Mama, he does not need
my help getting in trouble.

I don't need your
help with anything,

but that doesn't stop you from
getting all up in my business.

Okay, let's end this.
That's what I'm saying, dad,

'cause I got plans this
weekend... No, you don't.

I want both of you to go
up to your rooms right now

and stay there until
you're ready to tell us

what really happened!

See what you did?!
See what you did?!

Well, well, seems like I've got

enough to go on, sir.

What do you got?

Maybe nothing.

Maybe everything.

Most likely nothing.

Hey, y'all, wait till you see
how big all the sofa king and I

hooked y'all right
on up. This way.

Pretty fly, huh?

Where did you... How did you...

No, don't thank me.

Thank big al the sofa king.

Yeah, he said this stuff
came straight from Italy.

Does it have a
round-trip ticket?

Whoa, you're not feeling this?

I'm not feeling it,
I'm not touching it,

I don't even want to look at it.

Oh, well,

guess this is a
little too youthful.

Excuse me?

Hey, y'all too old to be trying

to keep up with all the
latest trends and stuff.

My grandmother's the same way.

Your grandmother?!

Let me tell you something.

We are just as young and hip

and funky fresh as
anybody else out there.

Great, Mr. B, glad
to hear you say that.

So will it be cash or charge?

Cash. Victor... Charge. Victor!

What? We got to
pay for it somehow!

We're not buying it.

R-r-right.

Just get us our furniture back.

Well, if you insist.

Make a couple phone calls.

Yeah, big al?

No, little ed.

Yeah. Well, they don't want it.

She wouldn't let him.

Uh-huh.

Well, apparently, the wife

wears the pants in the family.

I'm just saying,
that's all I'm saying.

You know... That is
not even a real phone.

It's got candy in it.

Get out of here!

You broke my phone, brother.

You know, he might just
have a future in this business.

Okay, you guys, I
just had a big break

in the case.

Something... Is
different around here.

You know, Chelsea,
nothing gets by you.

Yeah, I know.

It's my keen eye for detail

that makes me so
amazing at police work.

What can I say?

Now, if you'll join
me in the Kitchen,

I've got me a crime to solve.

All right, folks, I'm
gonna need the suspects.

That'd be your children.

Um, Cory? Raven?

You know she's not
really a detective, right?

Hi. Okay, all right, we're
gonna break this down.

Take a seat, take a seat,
take seat, take a seat.

Now, I've uncovered a
surprise witness for y'all.

Surprise witness,

could you come
on out here, please?

Thank you.

Obviously, our witness
would rather not be identified,

so we're gonna
respect his privacy.

Take a seat.

Right there.

Larry.

How'd you know it was me?

Man, you been wearing that
same sweatshirt for two weeks.

Hey, Larry, we just
want to know the truth.

The only thing that Cory and
Raven seem to agree upon

is that Mrs. Applebaum
left the room in-in tears.

Well,

I guess that's kind
of true. Uh-huh.

What really happened was...

It's an honor I will treasure
for the rest of my life.

Oh, Mrs. Applebaum,

are you crying
because you're leaving?

Oh, no, it's this new
mascara... I think I'm allergic to it.

Raven, Cory, is that true?

Eh... Eh... Eh, yeah...

Okay, Larry, what happened next?

Well, I was staring at Raven...

Because of my beauty?

Not exactly.

You had some green
stuff stuck in your teeth.

Yeah, you know what,
I should not have had

that spinach omelet
for breakfast, no.

Okay, Larry, just focus...
What happened next?

Well, it was snack time,

and things turned ugly.

Raven, it's time for me
to pass out the snacks.

Sounds more like time to
take advantage of your sister.

I'm not taking advantage of you.

This really is my job.

Then it must be my job
to tell you to sit back down.

It's snack time, and I'm
giving out the cookies.

Snack time? Cory,

the teacher said
nothing about snacks.

Cory! Give me those cookies. No!

Give me the cookies!

So you both broke them.

Everyone was hungry,

so Cory went to
the candy closet.

Cory, you better not open those.
Okay. Here, Larry, open that.

Okay, so that one was my bad.

Cory, you are in
big trouble now!

Aah! My shirt!

That's right... a bowling
trophy smashed the juice.

My shirt! Oh!

Cory, this is all your fault.

What? I didn't do it.

Cory... No, I didn't.

That wasn't a very
good place for a hook.

My shirt!

Cory...

Whoa! Whoa, whoa...

And I think you know
what happens next.

And that's what really happened.

It was all an accident.

Well, case closed.

Come on, Larry, I'm
taking you downtown, son.

To the police station?

No, silly, for an
ice cream cone.

You've done good, kid.

What upsets me

is that this whole thing
could've been avoided.

But both of you expected
the worst in each other,

and that's exactly what you got.

Mom, come on, how was I supposed

to know that out of all
the kids in Cory's class,

he was the one in charge
of handing out the snacks?

It was my job.

I was student of the week.

He got straight a's,

and he had perfect behavior.

Cory?

This Cory?

You? See, I had no idea.

You know, you should read
the refrigerator door more often.

See? You shouldn't have

came in there all bossy.

I wasn't bossy.

I was nervous.

You were nervous?

You're not afraid of anything.

You know, I was
afraid I would mess up

and... embarrass myself.

I didn't know you worried
about stuff like that.

You know,

maybe the two of you learned
something about each other

that will bring you
closer together.

Mm-hmm. Especially when
you two are doing extra chores

to help pay for
Mrs. Applebaum's portrait.

You can start with the dusting.

Come on, little bro.

What in the...? Whoa!

I love it!

I hate it! It's cool!

It's ridiculous!

You know, I think this
is a real turning point

for Cory and Raven.

She did it! He did it!

So, how were your

career experiences?
I don't know, Mr. G.

I didn't sell anything.

Yeah, teaching... not my thing.

Well, I don't know
about you guys,

but I was born for
police work. Born.

Well, still, it's amazing
I got even one right...

Considering I lost the
answer key to your tests

and... I made up the results.

Oh, man! All right,
all right, all right,

all right.

I found the key. Here
are the correct results.

Musician!

Fashion designer!

Environmental biologist?!

Chels, come on, that's what
you've always wanted to be.

Well, yeah, I know,

but... I don't know, Rae,

I'm kind of really gonna
miss the action, you know?

Actually,

Rae, do you mind
standing up for a minute?

What? Just a minute.

In the middle of the class?

Quick second, yeah.
All right spread 'em!

Spread 'em, spread 'em.

All right,

you have the right
to remain silent.

And...

You have the
right to an attorney.

Mm-hmm.

Chels? What?

You do have the
keys to those, right?
