[bunniefuu]

You find a movie yet? What's playing at the mall?

We got deep in the hood, tales from the hood,

Andhoods in the hood-- a love story.

Let's see hoods in the hood.

The man lets cuba gooding talk in that one.

Aren't there any comedies?

Martin's depressed about losing his job.

I'd like to cheer him up.

Hey! Hey!

Hey, baby! Got some good news for me?

[Sighs]

No, baby.

Aw, gina. I done went to every station in town.

Wnbc won't even talk to me.

It's like I've been banned.

So I told them to kiss my...

Martin, come on, what about your ratings?

You had the top show in detroit on wzup.

That's true. That was true.

Let's not forget when he had the corniest show in detroit on weha.

You know what, martin?

I think there's a spot for you onhee haw.

Is that right, pam?

I forgot that was you opening up every show.

Hee haw!

Hee haw!

All right?

How much are your residuals, all right?

I'm going through something right now.

Maybe I can get you a job where I work doing what I do.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Let me ask you something.

Just what the hell do you do, tommy?

He--

He wants--

Man, you know what I do.

Jeez!

Look, martin, uh, I actually have a job,

So maybe I can pull a few strings

And get you hooked up at the airport.

Cole, I ain't trying to be cleaning no bathrooms, man.

Cleaning bathrooms?

You ain't got no g.e.d.

You're going to have to start from the bottom.

Hey, hey.

Don't even worry about it, martin.

Something good will turn up.

Want to change before we go to the movies?

Gina, baby. I don't have no money.

I don't have no end.

Gina, I'm a*s out.

I told you that.

Oh, baby.

You sure?

Yes, I'm sure, o.k.? Thank you, baby.

I'm sorry. I'm in a mood.

I'll just stay here and go through the want ads,

See what I come up with.

Take it easy.

Thanks.

Love me?

Love you. Later.

Working for the man. Ain't that something?

Hello. I'm timmy soo.

This is my limo. This is my yacht,

And these are my hoochies.

You, too, can be rich beyond your wildest imagination

Through the miracle of telemarketing.

Just call -hoochie.

That number once again

Is -hoochie.

Lady, I'm going through a lot right now.

You don't have to spend your money.

Get a loan.

Lady, don't you hang up on me.

I got redial! I got redial!

What are you--

Martin, who are you screaming at?

Aw, baby.

A customer, gina.

I'm trying to sell her a speedboat at a good price,

And she don't want it.

Baby, I want you to think about this, o.k.?

Who is going to buy a speedboat over the phone?

Whatever happened to stand by your man?

I'm trying to move us up, like the jeffersons.

Martin, o.k. You know what?

You grab your piece of the pie. I'm going back to bed.

Do that. Do that.

Oh, hey. All right, mr. Johnson, how are ya?

All right, listen. You know what?

I'm going to get straight to the point.

I'm selling something.

Trying to sell you a speedboat.

Yeah, it's a fitapaldi.

Yeah. All right.

Well, um, $,.

You going to buy the boat for --

I sound a little excited, but, yeah, yeah.

You can get a loan.

You have the money?

Wow! All right. Well, I'll put you down for that.

Who, me?

Oh, sh**t.

It's funny you asked that.

I'm about '", '".

I ain't really that tall.

Mmm, yeah, I work out, you know.

That's what I do.

You know, get the exercise.

What?

Hell, no!

I ain't no damn freak!

Baby, I'm coming to bed.

Hey, honey.

You have made over $ so far.

My baby's an entrepreneur.

You see?

Let me give you some change.

What's the cents?

I don't want you to come up short.

If you do, I'll have to check you.

But anyway...

Girl, uh, I didn't know I was this fly.

I didn't know retail was in my blood.

The sale's going great.

Where'd you get the money to buy all this stuff?

I spent all my money. Uh-huh. Gone.

Martin, this is really nice, man,

But why does it smell like smoke?

Smell it.

I don't give nobody nothing that smells like...

You see that?

What?

Did pam breathe on this?

Martin, these earrings are melted together.

"Malik's -cent store."

Martin, this place burned down last week!

Um, I got it at a discount.

Right, right.

And I'm passing the savings on.

Boy, take this mess.

Passing? What are you talking about?

Ain't nothing here under $..

I didn't say I was passing the savings on to you.

Well, then, forget it. All y'all get out.

Step! I'm tired of y'all treating me bad.

You, too. Get out! I don't know you.

Step!

Sister, where are you going with this?

Step, lady. Get out of here! You, too!

Step! Get out!

You know?

[Knock on door]

I said step, o.k.?

[Knock knock]

Don't keep knocking on my door.

I'll be here tomorrow. This stuff will be here tomorrow.

[Knock knock]

Man, you're going to be a--

Man, see--

Did you hear me, man?

I said step.

This stuff will be here tomorrow.

I will be here tomorrow.

Mr. Payne, I am not going anywhere.

You are.

What?

Your rent is two months' past due.

I'm here to serve your notice of eviction.

So you get to steppin'.

There's some people out there that want me out?

Immediately.

Aah!

Get out of here!

I can't leave until you're out.

You have to get out, mr. Payne.

You have to go!

I'll give you one of these. Take this with you.

Now, who's the tall one on the left, brother man?

That's sabrina.

She kidnapped jesse's baby while he had amnesia.

While he was in the hospital.

Women in soaps don't cut a brother no slack, huh?

That's why I keep up with the stories, martin.

Helps me understand the honeys.

Makes them think brother man is sensitive.

Right.

Hey. Hey, martin. Whazzup, brother man?

All right.

What you guys doing?

Nothin'. Nothin'.

Just chillin'. Just chillin'.

Look for a job today, baby?

I didn't have to look, gina.

Something better is coming up tonight.

I told you if you kept trying, you'd find work.

Which station are you going to be on?

No, no, no, no, no.

It's something better, gina.

I ain't going to be on no radio station.

Me and brother man are going to sell t-shirts

Tonight outside a whitney houston concert.

Whitney's large.

We're about to get paid.

We printed up these t-shirts, right,

At $ a pop.

That means , ...

Hell, gina, you've been to college. You do the math.

My cut's going to buy a whole lot of sandwiches.

I ain't going to buy nothing but sandwiches.

Sounds nice, really nice.

You're going to get cheese on that, too.

Martin, don't you need a permit for that?

I ain't trying to hear nothing about no permit.

Me and brother man are about to get paid.

Let's roll.

Good luck tonight. Do well.

We don't need no luck. We're getting paid.

I love you.

Check you downstairs.

You have to start learning to use the door.

Hey, baby! How was the concert?

I don't want to talk about it, gina.

What?

Where's brother man, martin?

Brother man, well, he--

Aw, gina!

Everything went wrong, gina. Everything.

What, martin? You didn't make any money?

I'm lucky I got away with my life.

Ain't nobody trying to buy one of these, gina.

No!

Oh!

"Whitty huton"?

Oh, baby!

Whitty huton?

Yeah, whitty huton. Whitty huton, gina!

Brother man can't spell.

I didn't check with him.

I should have checked the shirt, gina.

Aw, baby, I blame the public school system, gina.

They're bussing us to school,

And we ain't getting no sleep.

But, no.

Look at it, gina. Look at the picture.

Baby, that's-- that's brother man in a bad wig.

Damn right it's brother man!

Oh, honey!

Honey!

Sit down!

Baby!

What is going on in my life?

What happened to brother man?

I don't know what happened to brother man, gina.

He was running with the slow bop, gina.

Running with the slow bop.

I think they caught an elbow.

Martin, martin, baby.

Something is going to work out, I know it.

Just give it time.

Time?

I don't have time, gina.

I have bills.

O.k., Martin, look.

You know what?

I know we've joked about this and everything,

But if you really need it, here, take it.

Here.

Your engagement ring, baby.

Yeah.

You're too good to me, girl.

You're welcome.

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad!

Whoo!

All right, cool.

What I'm going to do?

All right, first I'm going to take the ring back.

Then I'm going to pay my back rent, right?

And then I'm going to get malik off my...

Damn!

Gina, look at me.

Look at me.

I'm jobless...

I'm living off my woman...

And now I'm trying--

Now I'm trying to sell your engagement ring.

Hey.

Baby, wait.

No, no, no. Check it.

It's only temporary, martin!

Gina, I fell off.

It's only temporary. Just take it.

Your man fell off.

I didn't think I would fall off, though.

Oh, sh**t.

No, I'm not taking this, baby.

You know why? You know why?

No, no.

Uh-huh. What hand?

I will never forget.

Know why? 'Cause I made a commitment, baby,

And our love is real.

O.k.?

Let's don't even get mushy.

I'm going to go over to tommy's house.

Sometimes you got to get out with the fellas,

And then your boys will throw some stuff at you.

That's cool.

Don't be up worrying about me, girl.

Are you sure you're going to be o.k.?

See, you're worrying already, girl.

You going to be all right?

I got to go through this 'cause I'm a man.

Let's keep the head up.

Got to keep the head up...

For you, for me, for us.

Huh? I love you.

Always remember that.

Always remember that.

I know, honey. I know.

All right, you know where I'm at.

All right.

You know where I'm at.

I love you, too.

[Humming]

Sean, bro.

Oh, hey, man!

Whazzup?

Good to see you. Whazzup?

Look, man.

Where's everybody?

I am everybody, man.

They fired all the djs.

I come in every eight hours and change the tapes.

So what are you doing here?

Just walking around, you know, doing some thinking,

Thinking about my career.

So I guess I just ended up in the place I started.

So what are your plans, man?

I don't make plans no more.

I just flow with mine.

Well, I don't know, martin.

You don't have a plan, you could end up in a rut.

Rut?

Please, man. I ain't in no rut, sean.

I've been making changes all year.

What about when I took over the quiet storm show?

The lines stayed lit up, man.

You quit and came back to your old show, though, man.

Sean...sean.

What about when I went out to hollywood

And broke in on jodeci, boy?

That took heart.

I was, like, bam! K.c.! Jo jo!

That was cool, man.

That was cool,

But you did come back to your old show.

Yeah.

So you were saying something about a rut, man.

I was in one before I came to detroit.

How'd you turn things around?

I took off and saw the world, man,

And then one morning I woke up in a trailer park,

And I knew this is where I belong.

Sean...i wish I knew where I belonged, man.

Well, martin...

It'll come to you, man.

Come on. I'll walk you out.

Hey, I'll spot you to a doughnut.

A doughnut.

Sean, you is a wild boy, man.

Yeah, you are.

Whazzup?

Ahem.

A chicken.

Girl, are you sure?

Martin's been gone all night.

He hasn't called me. I haven't heard from him.

Don't even worry about it.

Don't nobody want him but you.

[Telephone rings]

Baby! Baby, is this you?

No, mrs. Payne, I'm not trying to push up on you again.

No. No, I haven't heard from--

Look, I will call you if he calls me, o.k.?

Bye.

How do you take that woman?

She's nuts.

Hey, any news yet?

No, tommy. I'm really getting worried.

Don't worry, baby. Look, calm down.

No news is good news, o.k.?

[Yawning] morning.

Gina, you got any froot loops?

Big shirley's kids drank all the milk.

I didn't get no breakfast.

Martin has been gone all night.

Nobody's heard from him all night.

He came by the crib last night around midnight.

Dropped this tape off for you.

Why you talking about some damn froot loops?

Give me this.

You are the simplest son of a...

Whazzup, y'all?

I'm coming at y'all like this

Because I don't want you

To talk me out of doing what I got to do.

Maybe we should've called the police.

Look, I'm going to get away for a while,

All right, y'all?

Gina, I don't know where I'll end up,

But, gina... I know I love you, girl.

You're my boo no matter what.

But, baby... You deserve more

Than I can give you right now.

Gina, I know I haven't forgot about our engagement.

That's the most important thing to me in the world.

I'm going to take some time to myself, all right?

Try to get myself together,

Find out who I am, gina, you know?

Learn how to be a man,

Keep my head to the sky, gina, all right, baby?

Get the wind beneath my wings.

'Cause I know I got them, baby, you know?

Gina, but the good news is

I got a pager, girl, all right?

Gina, you need to reach me

Anywhere in the world, baby,

That's right. You can hit me on the pager
