Hey, baby. Why you looking out the window?

Well, what do you need with a satellite dish, martin?

That's right. And with the dish,

We get to see it free, baby.

We? Martin, I don't even like boxing that much.

Gina, don't worry. I ain't forgot ya.

That's why I bought the ecstasy channel.

Yeah, yeah. They say it's educational.

You are so crazy.

And check this out.

What?

It's only gonna set a brother back $.

[Knock on door]

Whoa. That's a good price.

How'd you get such a good deal?

Gina, your man has connections, baby.

Don't question it.

What's up, gina?

Hey.

The satellite dish you was asking me about.

Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, martin.

I know cole is not your connection.

Baby, his brain isn't even connected

To the rest of his body.

See? Look at him. Look at him.

You're saying that right in front of the man.

Of course he's gonna have an out-of-body experience.

What? What?

See? He think he talking--

I'm sorry.

Don't be so hard on cole, gina.

He knew what I wanted, and the man came through. That's all.

That's right, gina. No diggedy.

All right. I'll let you guys handle your men thing.

Thank you. Thank you.

Hustle man was having a going-out-of-business sale.

Where's hustle man going?

I don't know, but he was in the back of a police car.

You ain't finished hooking that box up yet,

Sly and the family dome?

Martin, these are not the instructions for the satellite dish.

They instructions for the dishwasher.

I thought you knew something about--man.

If you want something done, you got to do it yourself.

Excuse me, baby. Excuse me.

All right, martin.

I've hooked the satellite dish up on the roof.

That's good. Now, did you bolt it down?

Shoo!

Psyche! Aha aha.

What did y'all think I am, stupid?

Aha aha. Yeah.

Martin, plug this in, too, all right?

Yeah. Uh...oh. Excuse me, baby.

I didn't mean that. Excuse me, baby.

Do you have to sit right there, gina?

No offense, but your head ain't the easiest thing to get around.

All right, all right, martin.

I just need to finish putting the final touches

On my kalvin kani underwear presentation.

What? Yo, girl, I love them drawers.

Really? Cole, you wear kalvin kani's?

I think I got a pair on right now.

Damn. Uh, moms must have the last clean pair on.

Don't worry, cole, 'cause when I get this account,

I will be able to get you and your mother a pair free.

Girl, you know the black ones?

Get out the way now.

Gina... Baby, excuse me,

But we're trying to work here.

All right, martin! I'm just trying to talk to cole

About his kalvin kani's.

Well, <span tts:fontstyle="italic">can i...</Span>

Hook up the box?

All right. You're so testy with a boxing match.

Guys, look here. I think the box is ready.

All we have to do now is plug it in.

I can do that. I got it.

Cole, watch the cord.

All right. All right.

Oh, y'all got too many plugs in this one.

I'm going to have to take one out.

No, not that one!!

Cole, you just unplugged my computer

And erased my entire presentation!

Aw, man.

Let me see something.

Gina, there's no presentation on the screen.

It's blank.

Your brain is blank.

Cole, it took me weeks to--

I'm gonna k*ll him.

Cole, get out. Gina, calm down. Gina!

No, martin.

Gina...baby.

That's it. I'm going to pam's, and--and, boy,

You better pray-- you better pray

She got it on a backup disk.

You better pray, cole!

I'll get the door.

Get out of my way! Yes, ma'am.

God, please let her have it on backup disk.

God, please let her have it on backup disk.

Ain't this about a b*tch?

Yeah, I know. It's gonna take gina all night

To get that presentation back together.

Aw, man, I'm talking about the satellite dish.

It still ain't working, man.

Pam, I wanted to say thank you

For helping me last night.

I'm glad you had that backup disk, girl,

And I'm sorry I had to break up that date.

Oh, that's all right.

Morning, ladies.

Hey.

Kalvin, I'd like to introduce you to miss gina payne.

She's my shining star.

And, oh, that's pamela james.

Yeah. See, I likes this,

Two young sisters doing your thing,

And I bet y'all can give me the flavor that I'm looking for,

So what you got?

Well, mr. Kani,

Our goal is to expand your market beyond its core consumers.

Let me direct your attention to the graph.

Whoa. Do we gotta do the graph thing?

Bell-bottoms,

Why don't you break it down for a brother?

O-o-o-ok. Well, it's like this, kalvin--

Oh, you don't mind if I call you kalvin, do you?

Oh, not at all.

See, what gina was trying to say

Is that we plan on putting every available onion

In a pair of kalvin kani's, and that's on the real.

Now, I'm with that.

Really? Ok, tell me what you think about this slogan--

"A booty damn sure looks fly

In a pair of kalvin kani's."

No, that's not the slogan.

Now, that's a slogan.

That's ok. That's ok.

No, but the slogan that I came up with,

That I did, was, "gentlemen prefer kalvin kani's.

Gentlemen do." That's--i like it.

That sounds kind of...

Whoo.

Um...help me, pam.

Corny.

Yeah. It's whack.

Yeah, whack. It's whack.

What else you got for me, bell-bottoms?

You should be making your drawers for everybody. You know what I'm saying?

For the overweight lover, chunky trunks.

For the hip-hop brother, funky trunks.

And, uh, for the brother blessed with a little bit of something extra...

Donkey trunks.

Oh, snap. A commercial with everyday brothers

Looking fly in their kalvin kani's.

Exactly.

Yo, whitaker, I want her in charge of my account.

You read my mind, kalvin.

Excuse me, mr. Whitaker,

Wasn't I your shining star? What about me?

What about you? Um...

Oh! You gonna be assisting pam.

Yo, yo, kal, baby!

Oh, snap!

I'm in charge! I'm in charge!

Tommy, ain't nothing but snow.

Ok, so what do you suggest we do about the dish?

Um...somebody going to have to get up on the roof and turn it.

Obviously it's in the wrong direction.

Somebody got to get up on the roof and turn it.

Yeah, yeah. Somebody got--

Man--pffsst--please. Don't even look at me.

I went up there last time.

Yeah, you're probably right, cole.

Wouldn't be fair to ask you.

No, it wouldn't be fair. Nuh-uh.

Get on up that roof and turn that thing.

No. Bro, your legs ain't broke.

Why don't you get up there and turn it?

Because I'm the owner of the dish,

Headwin moses.

Besides, I'm afraid of heights.

You afraid of who?

I said I'm af--

Oh, he afraid of heights!

That's why he stopped growing.

Oh, so y'all wanna make jokes, huh?

Well, ain't nobody gonna see the fight then, huh?

A-ga-ga-ga-ga on that. Huh?

Well, fine.

Fine.

Cool. No problem. Fine.

Damn. Get up there. I wanna see the fight.

Fine.

Hurry up. Get on up there.

Hurry up.

Martin: watch yourself going up the thing, all right?

You up there yet?

Cole: yeah, I'm up here.

All right. Ok, now take your time.

Start turning the dish, cole.

Cole: can you see anything?

Uh, turn it a little more.

Turn it a little more.

Cole: it won't go no more.

Aw, man, push harder, man.

Push, cole. Just push, man, hard.

Aah!

[Thud]

[Car alarm beeps]

Your turn.

Hey, gina-wina.

Hey.

Oh, wait a minute. You not still trippin'

About what happened earlier, are you?

Pam, why should I be tripping

Just because you stole my account?

Oh, now, come on, gina. We're a team.

Ain't nothing gonna change between us

Just because I'm in charge.

Pam, I am so glad you said that

Because for a minute there,

I thought that you were--

I don't even wanna say it--

Power-trippin' or something.

Gina, come on now.

You my girl.

Now be a sweetie and get me some coffee.

Excuse me?

The coffee behind you. I'm a little thirsty.

Oh, yeah, I am kind of close to it.

Yeah. You know what, gina?

I wanna hear all your thoughts on our print campaign.

Oh, yes. Well, I have some really great ideas. I thought that we could--

Nah, that ain't gonna work.

That ain't gonna work.

See, we need to see big, good-lookin' buff brothers

On billboards wearin' nothing but kalvin kani's.

Excuse me. Did you happen to notice

That I was in the middle of a sentence, pam?

Pam!?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Were you saying something?

Obviously not.

Oh, gina, I have got the best idea.

Be a lamb and run down and get some flowers for kalvin.

Flowers? Pam, come on, forget the flowers.

We have to go over these numbers.

They might want to know how much this campaign is gonna cost them.

Gina, numbers don't matter.

Ok? Image is everything.

Damn, that sounded good.

You know what? I need to make that a slogan.

Write that down, will ya?

Is there anything else I can do for you, pam?

Hey, pam, kalvin just called.

He wants to meet again tomorrow morning at :.

If everything goes well, we've got the account.

Don't you worry, mr. Whitaker. We will be ready.

Oh, gina, um...

[Exhales]

Um...we won't exactly be needin' you tomorrow at the meeting.

I think miss james can handle this one all by herself.

I got it.

We're finally seeing something clear.

Yep.

Cole, turn it up.

Tv: [in foreign languages]

Cole, what the hell is this?

Not one channel in english?

What is this, <span tts:fontstyle="italic"> the fresh prince</span> <span tts:fontstyle="italic"> of beirut?</Span>

We would've been better off

Using them satellites dishes on the side of your head.

Give me the remote, cole.

Don't blame me, pardner. Cole's the one that had us

Waiting in the emergency room for hours.

I fell through the roof of my car, man.

What you complaining about?

Now you got the convertible you always wanted.

Whoo! Heh heh heh.

Ha ha ha ha.

Hello.

Hey, gina.

Hey, gina. What's up, baby?

Martin, can I talk to you for a second please?

Yeah, sure. Go ahead and talk, babe.

Over here?

Over here.

All right. That--

Martin.

Yeah, baby.

You would not believe what happened to me at work today.

Pam threw me under the bus.

You're right.

Right.

Tommy, what's on the screen?

I don't know. It's not quite clear.

Look like <span tts:fontstyle="italic"> I dream of buddha.</Span>

Martin, would you please listen to me!?

Gina, baby, I'm listening.

Thank you. Martin, pam stole my kalvin kani underwear account,

And now, my boss won't even let me attend the meeting.

I really got to attend that meeting. I want to attend that meeting

Because I have to show him that I know this campaign better than anybody else!

Right.

You sure do, baby. You sure do.

Look, don't let scooby dog you.

If it was me, I'd fight pam man-to-man.

Man-to-man?

Oh, martin, you're a genius.

What? Baby--

You are a genius!

What up, dawg?

What's up, man? Yeah. Ohh.

My bad. My bad. You must be a swirl baby.

So, are you one of whitaker's boys?

Uh, yeah. Yeah, man, I am. Yeah. Yeah.

So all you got to do is run your numbers by my money man here,

And we'll be in business.

I'm sure that miss james has everything under control.

Pam?

Ha ha ha.

What are your projections for the cost of this campaign?

Projections? Um...

Um, I project that it won't cost that much.

Could you be a little more specific? Just a little.

Well, you see, if you have enough money,

You could, uh...

Whitaker, if she doesn't have any numbers,

We're gonna have to find another agency.

No, man. Shut up, man.

Yeah, shut up.

I mean, shut up.

Well, pam, I couldn't leave you hanging,

But you did kick me to the curb, pam.
