Hey, martin, after this promotion

And you become the number one d.j.,

You'll finally get rid of those hot dogs?

After I'm the number one d.j.,

I won't be spending my money all crazy.

Those hot dogs are just a little moldy.

How did you get kid on the show?

Because I am the man.

A little something/something--

Phone call here, phone call there.

Record company set it up.

I hooked the "win a date with kid."

This could put me on the map.

If this goes well,

Every celebrity will want to be on my show.

And I'll become the world's most popular interviewer,

Then it's just a matter of time

Before I've got arsenio's job.

Yeah, I got dreams, too. Big dreams.

Moms ain't going to live forever, right?

And one day I'll get that room with the window.

[Knock on door]

That may be happening soon.

Your mother's so old,

She co-wrote one of the commandments.

Hey, girl.

Hi.

Look at you looking all good, girl.

So, whazzup?

Pam wanted to come over to ask you something.

Hurry up. We're late.

Will kid 'n play be on your show tomorrow?

Uh, kid, not play. Play's in new york.

Is everybody talking about my promotion in the streets?

Whazzup?

No. Gina told me.

So how do I win this date, martin?

Listen to my show,

And I'll explain the rules.

Now it's a rule thing. Don't get mad.

Girl, let's go. Bye, baby.

See ya.

Tonight, dinner with gina.

Tomorrow, dinner with kid.

Hey, pam, pam, come on.

Why you want a kid

When you got a...

A man right here?

I'm talking about a man

Whose mom's going to be out shopping

From : to :.

Just don't wear no perfume.

Moms will get real upset

If I had a little freak over.

Why? She ain't upset

'Cause she had a freak for a son.

Find it. Pick it up. There you go.

Aah.

So if it isn't miss bourgeoise

Gettin' thrown out of her manager's apartment again.

Oh, my goodness.

What'd you say?

I know--what?

Oh. O.k.

All right.

Why do you have to start a fight

With everybody in this hallway?

Why don't you try acting like a lady?

Let me tell you something.

I don't need to act like no lady.

I am a lady, and I'll prove it.

I'm busting your head right now.

Let's not even worry about her.

Yeah. Do that. Thank you.

Whiplash!

He's here!

He's here!

He's here!

Shut up!

Now! Everybody!

Take your places.

Take your places.

And get ready to kiss some serious butt.

Hi, everybody.

I'm kid.

Which one of you brothers is martin?

Come on, kid. I'm martin.

I met you in atlanta

At the black radio convention.

You said you'd call me.

I must have lost your number, man.

You know how it is running around.

Get away.

Kid, I'm stan,

The entrepreneur who built this radio station

From the ground up.

Anything I can get you?

You got any bottled water?

Oh.

Oh. Yeah. Here.

Uh, sean, run to the bathroom

And fill this up.

That's o.k.

I'll pass on the bottle.

We got seconds to go.

O.k. Have a seat.

Have fun. Get comfortable.

Now, look, I'm going to step out, o.k.?

I'm going to leave you two young bloods

To take care of serious business.

And .

...

...

...

Whazzup?

Whazzup?

What up?

This is the insane martin payne.

I'm very excited about today

'Cause I got a special in-studio guest.

My man christopher reid,

Better known as the "k," the "i," the "d."

Kid, from kid 'n play.

How you doing, man?

People want to know,

How'd you get the name kid?

My father got drunk when I was little.

He'd forget my name.

He say things like, "hey, kid,"

Or "get in here, kid,"

Or "whose kid is this?"

I guess it kind of stuck.

Your father got to stop drinking.

He needs to stop dating your mom.

Don't talk about my mother.

You don't know me like that.

I got to tell you,

That kid is something else.

Listen, we got a lot of ladies here

That want to win this date with you.

What does kid like in a woman?

I like them soft, sweet, sophisticated.

Thin in the waist, cute in the face,

Got her own place, won't spray me with mace.

Now, ladies, remember,

The third caller to call in

Is going to win that romantic dinner

With the k-i-d.

I see the phones are lit up.

Let's go to the phones.

You're on with the kid.

Hi, kid. My name's crystal.

What's up?

Talking to you is the best thing that's happened to me

Since I was named "miss detroit."

Don't get too excited.

You're not the right caller.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Not so fast. She didn't sound that bad.

We got to stick to the rules, man.

We're going to the next caller.

Don't worry.

Next caller you're on.

Whazzup?

Hi. I've been a fan of yours for years.

Thank you, baby.

Kid, I hope I'm caller number three

Because I've just stepped out of the bubble bath to call you,

And I'm dripping wet.

Well, finish soaking.

Wait, wait, wait.

Wait, wait, wait.

Wait. I want to talk to her.

Sweetheart, tell me a little about yourself.

I'm about '",

And people always mistake me for vanessa williams.

Ooh!

They won't mistake you for a winner

'Cause you're not the right caller!

So look here,

Ladies,

It's about that time.

The next caller get through

May become mrs. Kid.

Are you excited?

I'm terribly excited.

Here we go.

Caller number three, you're on with kid.

Whazzup?

[Sheneneh] hello!

Hello!

How are you doing?

This is sheneneh. Am I the third caller?

Yes, you are, sweetheart.

We're going out tonight.

Oh, my goodness, I won!

I won!

Oh, my goodness!

I won!

I won!

Martin, what is wrong?

What's so important you couldn't tell me over the phone?

Sheneneh won the date with kid.

Sheneneh?

Sheneneh!

Gina, come on now.

Babe, come on.

Babe, don't laugh.

Gina!

Babe! Look! Gina! Gina!

If it gets out I blew this,

I'll be nobody in town.

My d.j. Career is over.

You're overreacting.

You got to calm down.

Babe, I am calm.

We got to think of something here.

Um...no...

Um...um...um.

Babe...

All right, um...

I already called sheneneh over, o.k.?

When she gets here,

I'm going to bang her in her head with this pan.

I'm going to lay her on the couch.

You go next door and pretend you're sheneneh

And give kid the date of his life.

Hey! None of that touching, all right?

Have you lost your mind?

[Knock on door]

O.k., Um...

Open the door.

Martin, put that down! Put it down!

Give me that.

Go in the other room.

I'll take care of sheneneh.

O.k. But if one blow doesn't work, twice.

Pop, pop.

I am not hitting her.

I'll talk to her,

Maybe give her a few dating tips.

Kid'll have a great date.

If you need me,

Me and the pan are in the other room.

Open up. I ain't got all night.

I'm supposed to meet martin over here.

Where is he?

Martin had to run to the store.

I want to congratulate you

On winning that date with kid.

Oh, my god!

Oh, my god!

You want to congratulate me?

Why, gina?

Well, don't you really like him?

Oh!

I do, gina.

Oh, I love the kid.

I know everything about him,

What he likes.

I've seen all his movies, his cartoons.

Oh, I got all his albums.

I mean, he is too hype.

You're really excited, huh?

Yeah.

Stuff like this ain't supposed to happen to sheneneh.

I may never get this chance again,

And I don't want nothing to go wrong.

So...

Maybe I can give you some advice

On girl stuff and things like that.

Hold it. Wait a minute.

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

I know what you up to.

You thinking like I ain't ladylike and stuff.

No, that's not true.

Look at your hair, your nails, your jewelry.

You're very ladylike.

Because sheneneh is a roundaway filet.

All right?

And if the man don't like me for me,

Then he can just step off, all right?

I got to get ready for my date with kid.

Wait, I really didn't mean to make you--

We cool. You don't know no better.

You tell your friend when I see her I'm going to bust her a*s.

Who is it?

Um, uh... My name is kid.

I'm looking for sheneneh jenkins.

Oh, my goodness!

Ohh, my goodness!

It's you.

Oh, god, it's really you.

Ohh.

Oh, my goodness.

I'm sheneneh jenkins. I'm the one you're looking for.

Y-you're sheneneh?

Uh-huh.

Wow. Damn.

Here.

Ohh, thank you, kid.

Ohh.

Uh...

Uh...

We need to get going.

The station said the reservations were for :.

Oh, no. No, baby, no.

Uh-uh.

Uh-uh. See...

Sheneneh canceled those reservations.

I cooked you something special.

You're so fine-looking.

Your eyes and everything.

You want a c*ck? I'll get you a c*ck, all right?

Ssss. Ooh, you warm, too.

Ooh.

Uh, so martin tells me he lives across the hall.

Well, he won't be coming over here messing up our groove.

I mean, he want get with me and everything,

But I ain't trying that.

What you got there?

Couple of s.

Malt liquor.

You sure know how to entertain.

Thank you, kid.

Kid!

You so crazy.

You don't drink no out of no glass.

Kid...

Oh, my goodness.

You got to take it to the head.

[Belch]

Ooh.

Oooohh!

Now...

That's how you get your buzz on.

But, look. You better not drink on no empty stomach.

So, look... While your food's still cooking,

How'd you like a little live entertainment?

S-sure. No problem.

You like that?

All right.

Bam!

Uh--

Uh, sheneneh, sheneneh!

W-we barely know each other.

That's all right.

We going to put an end to that ain't we, kid?

Huh? What?

Uh. Uh...

Wait, wait. Did you hear that?

What?

I think I hear play calling me.

Boy, you so crazy.

Play in new york.

But he's got a really big mouth.

Look, I got to get outta here.

Don't. Kid... I love--i love--

Kid!

Kid, come here!

How you doing?

You o.k.?

I said I'd do the promotion,

But I'm outta here.

Mama never said there'd be days like this!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, kid.

Listen, man, it ain't my fault.

It's all stan's idea.

I'd never hook up a brother with sheneneh.

Wait a minute.

What is wrong with you two?

What?

I can't believe how insensitive you are.

Martin knows how important this is to her.

Gina, you don't even like that girl.

I bet nobody likes that girl.

Oh, that's nice, mr. Class act.

It's too much trouble to spend a little time

With someone who'll remember it all her life?

Hey, wait a minute.

No, you wait a minute.

Sheneneh's only your biggest fan.

But I guess that doesn't mean anything to you.

Gina! You make it sound so cold, babe.

She's right. It iscold.

I never thought about sheneneh's feelings.

How bad could it be to spend some more time with her?

Want me to give you the lowdown?

Martin!

I'll go over there. I'm sorry....

My name's kid.

Hi. I'm martin's girlfriend gina.

Ah! That's my baby.

I'm going. I want this on record--

Kid never lets his fans down.

Ha, there you go.

Hey, kid!

Ain't gonna hurt nobody.

We told him, didn't we, baby?

Oh, wedid?

You did.

I know I did.

You go, girl.

[Sniffling]

Hey, girl!

Come on, now.

What you looking all sad for?

Kid...i mean, you really didn't have to come back

If you didn't want to, all right?

I was just trying to make you feel nice, all right?

I mean, you ain't sold that many albums

To be treating people like this.

Come on, now, it wasn't like that.

I just had to go out to my car...

Uh, to get you this.

Here, look.

What is it?

It's a "k."

Oh, my goodness.

For me, kid?

I--i wanted you to have it.

Oh, see, I knew you weren't stuck up like some of them be.

I knew that. Oh, my goodness.

Kid, let's stop all this foolishness

And do what you came here to do, kid.

Excuse me?

Let's dance, kid.

Sure, we can dance. Sure.

All right.

Put some music on.

We can dance.

Boogie a little bit.
