Ooh, crispy hairline, check.

Fit fresh, oh yes!

Bay side high ain't
ready for this.

Hey, check you out.
You look nice.

Um, nice?

That's all you got?

Uh, uh, I meant fresh.

Fly? Dope? Lit?

- Bussin'?
- You're too late. You already said nice!

Hey, Booker, nice shirt!

I get it.
I'm changing!


I know that folder.
You got Ms. Rader for fourth grade.

- She's tough.
- Please!

I've got a 180 IQ.

I'm always the smartest kid
in my class.

I think I can
handle a teacher.

Rader goes the hardest
on the smart ones.

Like, my lab partner,
Marty Henry.

By the time rader was done with him,
he got a B plus.

B plus?

I-is that what's
below an A?

I gotta go.

All right, this is it!

This is the fit that's
gonna make me stand out

on my first
day of school.

Hey, hey, great shirt!

I'll be right back.

Oh, look at you two.
Runway ready!

Runway?
Ms. Baxter, I could never...

Or could I?

Ooh...

Yeah, I felt weird
the moment I did it.

Yeah.

Oh, I remember what I wore
on my first day of junior year.

Purple jacket,
black graphic tee,

cute jeans that
made my Booty pop.

Man, I'm dressed
just like, just like...

Oh, look at my baby

stuntin' like his momma!

Season 05 Episode 05

Episode Title:
"Clique Bait"

Aired on:
April 08, 2022.

This is so weird.
I'm going to my mom's old school.

Why is everyone staring at me?

'Cause you're
the new kid.

You're intriguing.

You're interesting.
You're mysterious.

Hoo-hoo, I am?

No, but they don't
know that yet.

Hey, I didn't know
you played the trombone.

Yeah, it started
as a joke

in the sixth grade,

but now, I'm in a funk
fusion combo called,

"oh, no you didn't."

So, really, the joke was on me.

Ben, how was your summer?!

Seymour, see you got
your braces off.

Carla, I heard
your turtles had twins.

Mazel tov!

Do you have a handshake
for everybody?

Well, I like everyone
to feel special.

But don't worry,
I'm working on one for us.

It goes hawk hands
into snake fists,

and then, we make
it rain, but...

Both sides.

Hey, guys,
what's up?

It's her.
It's the girl from the chill grill.

She's coming this way.

- Yo, what's up, Cami?
- Hey.

"Hey"? That's it?

Then, not a high,
but low five,

double snap,
super cool head nod.

I don't get it.

Okay, so, I'll start over.
So, hawk hands...

No!
And, Cami, she acted like

she barely knows me.

She does barely know you.

Yeah, but I stayed here
to change that.

What? I thought you stayed here
to hang out with us.

Really?

You know I just be
sayin' stuff, right?

Ooh!
Finally, the kids are gone.

Oh, I love the start
of the school year.

Hey, Alicia, play my jam.

Alicia, hold up!

What are you doing here?
What are you doing here?

Dad, you were supposed
to take her to school,

like, two hours ago.

I told her she
could stay home.

- Poor thing lost her voice.
- Really?

Well, she seemed
fine this morning.

Tasha got invited
to the party!

Wow, dad, you never
treated me like that

when I stayed
home from school.

That's because you were
always up to something.

How do you know
she's not up to something?

'Cause I raised you.

I know what "up to something"
looks like.

Okay, let me get these
pillows all fluffed up,

get you tucked in,
and...

Here's your remote.

Watch anything you want,

even if you have
to pay for it.

Wow!

Pay TV.

You know, pop-pop
may need glasses,

but I see what's up.

I'm watching you, little girl.

And your doll, too.

You're lucky you're
with us, Booker,

'cause we sit
at the cool table.

Oh, you guys sit with
all the popular kids?

No, we sit at the table
under the air conditioner.

It's always empty
'cause it's freezing.

Hey, hey, there's Cami.
Let's go sit with her.

Booker, you can't just go over and sit
at the cool table.

I thought this was
the cool table.

It is,
but that table's cool

because they're all hot,
which is cool... For them.

Forget about Cami.
Come on.

Hey, new kid!

Yes, you.
Come sit with us.

- Hey, I'm Booker.
- Yeah.

The ketchup guy.
I remember you.

Hey, can you scoot over?

So, you go to school
here now?

Yep, I'm the new kid.

I'm so fresh,
I still got that, uh,

New kid smell.

Was that supposed
to be funny?

Yeah, that was the idea.
Yes.

So, what kind of stuff
did you do in Chicago?

You know, um, made
music with my friends,

dabbled in fashion,
rode my bike.

You rode your bike?

Uh... I mean,
my motorcycle.

I call it my bike.

My hog.

I be poppin' wheelies
and everything.

So, you're a bad boy.

I was trying
to keep it low-key,

- but it can be our little secret.
- Okay, bad boy.

Well, you better watch out
for our principal.

She is crazy strict,

but, um, I'm sure you
aren't fazed by that.

I ran my school back home.

My principal
was afraid of me!

I'm so bad, my own momma
checks in with me before

she makes a move.

Oh, look.
There she is now.

Decline!

You know what?
She trippin'.

But I'MMA, uh... I should take this
and tell her she trippin'.

Otherwise, she gon'
be trippin' all day.

Hey, mom. I don't know
why it went to voicemail.
That is so weird.

I'm starting to think that this new kid
might come in handy.

This is perfect.

Alice?

I knew it.

I knew it.
Lost her voice my butt.

Raven?
What're you doing?

I can't believe you let her stay
home from school again today.

That little girl is playing you.

Auntie Rae has no idea.

- Raven, don't!
- You are so busted.

Auntie Rae has no idea

how much I admire her.

What that robot say?

I tried to tell you
this child genius

designed a soundboard,
so she can communicate.

Oh.

You're my she-ro.

So, does the she-ro have
something she'd like to say?

I, I apol...

I apologize... to you.

Apology accepted.

Can I please have
some more ice crabs?

No, you can't
have ice crabs.

Hey, what are ice crabs?

She meant ice cream,
and, of course,

you can have some
more ice cream.

Hey, get this child
some ice cream.

It's the least
you could do.

This has gone far enough.

Do I have to ground you,
young lady?

I knew she was fakin' it.

I love you, pop-pop.

Oh, okay, so you think
you're up to something?

I'm about to be all kinds
of "up to something"

in this house.

Can you believe they won't let me join
the cheer leading squad?

You're the backup
quarterback.

Exactly.

I'm already at the game
and I'm not doing anything.

Hey, Booker,
where you going?

Oh, he's gonna ditch us for his little
girlfriend again.

No, I'm not!

Wait, did she say
she was my girlfriend?

Did you hear something?
If you heard something, you gotta tell me.

No, she doesn't
talk to me.

We haven't been friends
in a long time.

When's the last time
you talked to her?

I don't know.
About since middle school, I guess.

Maybe it's time to give
Cami another chance.

Come on.

Fine.

- Hey, Cami.
- Oh, hey, Booker.

Oh! You brought
Neil and Ivy.

I thought we could
all sit together.

Yeah, yeah, of course, sit down.

Wow, we haven't
talked in forever.

- How are you?
- Fine.

Oh, look at us...
Sittin' together, being friends.

Isn't this great?

It's definitely warmer...

But way more awkward.

So, Ivy,
our birthdays are coming up.

- Ooh, something in common.
- Got any big pla?

I knew this was a mistake.

I'm sorry.
I'mma go talk to her.

Hey, you're
a cheerleader, right?

Could you put in
a good word for me?

Ivy, stop.
What is your problem?

- I told you she was awful.
- She was just being nice.

Look, you don't know anything.

I get it. You like her.
But think about it, Booker,

what would a girl like that
want with a guy like you?

- What's that supposed to mean?
- No, no, no.

- It's, it's just...
- You wanna know what I think?

I think you're
jealous of Cami.

Jealous?

Cami should be jealous of me.

You know, I will have you know
my funk fusion combo

is playing at Marley's
saltwater grill this weekend...

And they're paying
us in catfish.

Man, we really need a manager.

Hey, dad, hey.
Since you don't believe

that Alice is faking
losing her voice,

I'm gonna show her one
of those jump-scare videos.

You know, when the zombie
pops up out of nowhere?

She'll scream, I'll laugh,
and you'll be wrong.

Alice, come down here!

Hey, girl.

I was just watching
this funny video.

You gotta check it out.

- Yeah, just press play.
- Mm-hm.

Alice? No, a-Alice.
Come back here, the video...

Did I, did I play
the wrong video?

Ah, zombie!

What's wrong, new kid?

It's nothing.
It's just...

- Ivy, she's...
- Being Ivy?

Don't worry about her.
We can hang out.

- I mean, if you want to.
- Yes, please.

Let me get your number.

Ugh, I forgot.

- The principal has my phone.
- Why?

She took it 'cause she caught
me using it in the hallways.

It's just sitting there
in her desk drawer.


I'd go get it myself,
but she's watching me like a hawk.

But a new kid could, probably,
just walk right in.

- A new kid?
- Yeah.

A cute, confident, bad boy

who isn't afraid
of a little trouble.

That sounds like me!

I, I mean, unless you were talking
about somebody else.

No, I meant you!

It's in a gold case.

Um, and before you
give it back...

Make sure to put
your number in it.

Wait, should I put it under
"Booker" or "new kid"?

You know what, don't worry about it.
I'MMA put it under both.

Okay, dad,
first one didn't work.

Stupid zombie.
But this one?

No escape.

Hey, Alice, can you
come in here, please?!

Hey!

I'm gonna make you
my great-great-granddaddy's
famous recipe.

Yeah, little okra...

Little tapioca.

All in there.
Yeah!

And... Fermented fish.

Yep, guaranteed
to bring your voice back.

Make ya holla for your momma.

Whoa!

That is strong!

I think I lost a eyebrow.

Oh, no, there it is.

And there you go.

Enjoy.

Oh, and if you
don't wanna drink it,

all you gotta do is say so.

Ah!

The girl's a beast.

No phone, no phone...

Aw, man!

Of course, they're all gold.

Cami's such a trendsetter.

That's not good.

He's not here. See?
You owe me five bucks.

- Told you he wouldn't fall for it.
- Fall for what?

And I told you
he would.

Booker, you gotta
get outta here.

Not until I find Cami's phone.

- But she's playing you.
- No, she's not. I'm helping her.

The principal took
her phone for no reason.

The principal took her phone
because Cami is grounded.

The principal can ground you here?
Man, tough school.

She can if she's your mom.

Cami is
the principal's daughter.

You have to admit,
the girl takes a good picture.

I was changing for gym
and heard Cami bragging
to her friends about

how she tricked you
into getting her phone.

- Come on, let's go.
- Why would Cami set me up?

What are you doing
in my office?!

I'm, uh, uh, trying
to think of a lie.

Move!

My daughter tricked you
into doing this, didn't she?

She did, but in my defense...

She's very attractive.

Of course, she is.
She's my daughter.

Every time I take Cami's phone,

she finds some easily manipulated Tonto
to get it back for her.

- What's your name?
- Booker Baxter-Carter.

Baxter-Carter?
I used to go to school with a Devon Carter.

Had a huge crush on him.

- That's my dad!
- Until he was stolen from me

by my Nemesis, Raven Baxter.

Any relation?

I don't know that lady.
Raven Baxter?

Hey, Alice!

Hey, girl, hey.

Listen, I was talking
to Tasha the other day

and she told me that she hasn't had
a haircut in a minute.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
I can clean her up for you.

So, how short should we go?

Nia?

Booker?

How 'bout we go
straight pop-pop?

That's chic, huh?

Oh, well, if you don't
want me to cut her hair...

All you gotta do
is tell me not to.

Okay, fine, you
called my bluff.

Wow, you really did
lose your voice,

and, apparently,
I lost my mind.

- That was close.
- Whoa, I got ya!

I got you!
I knew it! I knew it!

And I know it's not your tablet
'cause it's in the kitchen.

I'mma tell pop-pop.

No, no, wait, w-wait!

I, I can explain.

I just...

didn't wanna go to school.

What? Why?

You came to San Francisco
just to go to that school.

But this year
I have Ms. Rader.

Ivy says she's hardest
on the smart kids.

Well, sometimes teachers are
harder on their best students

because they know
they can handle it.

It just makes you better.

- What if I can't handle it?
- Oh, no, you can handle it.

I mean, look how hard
you worked just to fool me.

It really wasn't that hard.

Yes, it was. It was hard.
It was very hard.

So, I have to go
to school tomorrow?

Yes, sweetheart, you do.

But it's gonna be fine!
You're smart, you're tough,

and best of all,
you're a Baxter.

Thanks, auntie Rae.
I'm so glad you're here.

- You're the best.
- Ah, yeah, well, raisin'

kids is my specialty.

Hello?

Principal's office?

My son did what?

Ah.
Can't win 'em all, you know?

Sorry you got in trouble
for trying to help me.

Don't worry about it.
It's what friends do.

And you tried
to warn me.

You're not the only one
to get b*rned by Cami.

When we were
in the fourth grade,

she found out I was going to have
a Princess birthday party.

So, she planned a party
for the same day and hired

all the princesses in town.

You know what a Princess party
without princesses is?

It is my grandfather
in a tiara singing

"a dream is a wish
your heart makes" in Mandarin.

Everyone went to her party
and no one came to mine.

Wow... That is messed up.

I was trying
to tell you, Booker.

Cami is not a nice person.

You are.

You care about people.
You wanna help them.

- You're too good for her.
- I'm sorry I said you were jealous.

And I'm sorry I went
to Cami's party.

You never told me
you went to Cami's party.

Yeah, sorry about that, too.

Principal Rivera, please.

All right, Ivy and Neil
shouldn't get in trouble.

- They had nothing to do with this.
- Oh, I know. They can go.

Bye!

I can't believe that worked.

Principal Rivera,
I also had nothing to do with this!

Nice try. Sit down.

Where is he?
Second day of school

and he's already in trouble.

- Alana?
- Hello, Raven.

Haven't seen you
since high school.

And yet, it still
feels too soon.

You know what?
You two have

a lot of catching up to do,

- so I'm just gon' see myself out.
- Sit down, Booker!

Hey, don't speak
to my son that way.

Sit down, Booker!

Hey, new kid.

Don't "new kid" me.
You set me up.

I thought you could handle it.

You said you were
a motorcycle-riding rebel

and even your mom
couldn't make a move

- without checking in with you first.
- Hey, shh!

Keep it down, all right?
She's still here.

So, I guess now that
you're mad at me,

you're not gonna
give me your number?

I already put it in.

You got it?

Yeah, I grabbed it while
your mom wasn't looking.

Also, what does
"Tonto" mean?

We're not gonna let
this happen, right?

Not a chance.

- Did we just agree?
- Definitely not.

Oh, okay.

Wait, so we are
gonna let that happen?

Definitely not.

Okay, now it just sounds like you're
arguing with me

just to argue with me.

Welcome back, Baxter.

Well, if you don't want
me to cut her hair,

all you gotta do
is tell me not to.

That's it.
I've seen enough.

Raven,
could you come down here?

Yeah. Hey, daddy, Alice.
What's up?

Alice just showed me
the video from today.

Why would you show him that?
I thought we made up.

I-it wasn't me.
It was Tasha's idea!

- Tasha? Girl, Tasha's a doll.
- Raven!

This has gone far enough.

Do I have to ground you,
young lady?

Oh, okay, there it is. Got it.

Tell Alice you're sorry.

oh, wait, I would,
but I, I lost my...

Voice.

Oh, no, no, no, no.

I am not falling for that!
Come back here.
