RUMMY:
Man, I don't get that.
ED:
Get what?
That textin' sh*t.
And what's wrong
with textin'?
You mean, aside from the fact
that it's the stupidest
f*ckin' thing in the world?
I mean, why would anyone
in their right minds
spend minutes tryi'’
to type some sh*t
they could have called
and said in five seconds?
Plus, it involves typi'’
with your thumbs,
which I just don't
approve of.
sh*t. I don't know
about you,
but I don't have time to read
nothin' that a m*therf*cker
typed with his thumbs.
Fun fact: nothin' typed
by someone's thumbs
has ever been important.
It's all just n*gga
technology, anyway.
What you call it?
"n*gga technology. "
Technology for n*gg*s.
Only don't start trippin'
and sh*t, callin' me a r*cist.
'Cause I don't mean n*gga
in a disrespectful way.
I-I mean it as a general term
for ignorant m*therf*cker.
Anybody of any race could be
an ignorant m*therf*cker.
sh*t, I be textin'
my ass off.
sh*t. b*tches like textin'.
I be textin' them all the time.
Matter of fact,
I also be textin'
my weed man too,
'cause, you know, he don't like
to be on the phone.
So I text him.
Case in point.
So basically,
n*gga technology is anything
that doesn't plug
into a printer.
Does that plug into a printer?
No.
Know why?
'Cause n*gg*s never
have anything to print.

Excuse me, sirs,

Shut up, Riley!
Rummy, you the man.
Excuse me. But will you
be needing anything else

Mr. Wuncler, sir?
Nah, you can go on

Thank you, sir.
And for what it's worth,
I thought you all did very well.
See? An unbiased

So you honestly think that

And Oprah fans get ready.
The queen of daytime talk
will be in the Woodcrest area
tomorrow for a book signing,
before taping her show
the following evening.
Hundreds of Oprah faithfuls
have been camping out
for days in anticipation.
[SNIFFLING]
I just think she is-
She is
the most wonderful spirit.
I just don't know what
I would do without her.
RUMMY:
Oh, snap!
What if we kidnap Oprah?
And do what?
Control of Oprah
is control over women.
Wait. I see where
you're goin'.
See, 'cause, like,
control over women
is control over b*tches.
Oprah Winfrey
taps directly into
the emotions, beliefs,
buying habits
and summer reading patterns
of billions of women
all over the world.
Oprah Winfrey has the power
to lay waste
to an entire industry
with a mere utterance.
She's a completely invincible,
unstoppable force of nature.
And with her under our control,
nobody will be able to stop us.
Who's trying to stop you?
Nobody ever tries to stop you.
Yes, they do.
No, they don't.
Hey, just because we don't know
anyone tryin' to stop us,
don't mean ain't nobody
out there tryin' to stop us.
The absence of evidence is
not the evidence of absence.
Seems to me like everyone
just let's y'all
do whatever you want.
That's why y'all
always get away.
We get away because
I'm a criminal mastermind.
Whatever, n*gga.
Get ready.
We get her at the bookstore.
We gonna need some
video surveillance.
And we gonna need
advanced communication.
Two-way pagers
for everybody.
Yeah!
[?]
Whatever you guys
are plannin',
you're not gettin' away
with it.
Nobody can stop Ed and Rummy.
Maybe not.
But if I catch you with 'em,
I'm gonna take you down.
Unless I take you down first.
[MOCKING] "Unless I
take you down first. "
Is that the best you can do?
Shut up, punk.
WOMAN: I just saw- I
saw a glimpse of her.
Oh, my God.
She's in there.
MAN:
Oh, she looks fantastic.
RILEY:
Okay.
There's two guards
by the front door.
[INDISTINCT WHISPERING]
RILEY:
Another on the east wall.
ED:
Well, excuse me
for being into computers
and sh*t, all right?
First of all, m*therf*cker,
just because you put
a two-way pager
in the middle of your desk,
don't make it a computer.
It's a two-way pager,
all right?
Okay. Then what's
the difference?
The difference is
a computer is something
that does actual work.
n*gga technology don't do much
more than let dumb n*gg*s
talk to other dumb n*gg*s
about dumb-n*gga sh*t.
WOMAN:
She even smells good.
RILEY:
Hey. I see Oprah.
Okay, her security
just left her alone. Go.

This was the scene today
at the Woodcrest
Borders bookstore,
where two unknown assailants
kidnapped Maya Angelou
during a book signing.
It was all Rummy's fault!
Ed ran into the wrong store.
I was followin' Ed.
How was I supposed to know
which bookstore to go into?
They look exactly the same,
and they both got books.
There was a giant crowd
of people outside of one.
That don't mean
Oprah was in there.
There was a large sign outside
that said, "Welcome Oprah. "
Y'all are lucky Ed's grandfather
owns the cops.
Just what are you tryin'
to imply?
Look, we escaped capture
because of planning,
teamwork and execution.

This officer wanted
to see you,
Mr. Wuncler, sir.
Uh, excuse me, Mr. Wuncler,
I-I just...
Well, y- You dropped
this today at the bookstore
during the- Y-you know.

Th- Thank you, Mr. Wuncler,
sir. Thank you.
Uh, I'm so sorry
to disturb you.
I- I hope you're
not upset with me.
Why don't we just get
Oprah tomorrow?
Anybody know where
they're taping?
Maybe we could
try and find out?
I'm down with that.
Oh. This is beautiful.
It's like we back again.
Hey, man, look, I'm sorry.
You know, uh,
sometimes I just let my emotions
get the best of me.
No, no, no, no, I understand.
You passionate
about what you're doin'.
I just wish you'd be a little
more sensitive to my feelings.
It was my fault, man.
No, no, no, it was my fault
for grabbing...
the poet triumvirate,
whatever her name...
Maya- Maya.
Y'all n*gg*s are gay.
Hey, why y'all
leave me out here?
One of y'all m*therf*ckers
better come out here
and get me, I know that.
Or you will be living
in a haunted house tonight.
Swim, bitch!
Now, this is the studio where
they be taping the show.
What we need to worry about is
Oprah's personal security team.
Do we have any intel on that?
Any what?
Intel.
Intelligence, n*gga.
Keep up.
The bookstore security footage.
Help!
[?]
RUMMY:
Whoa. Bushido Brown.
Aw, damn,
I was afraid of this.
Who's Bushido Brown?
A bona fide bad m*therf*cker,
that's who.
You remember when Oprah
made them comments
about the beef industry?
No.
Okay. Well, a few years back,
Oprah said some sh*t
on her show about beef.
You know, mad cow disease,
or some sh*t.
Anyway, the beef industry didn't
exactly find that sh*t amusing.
They thought they would send
a crew of armed Texans
to go teach Oprah a lesson.
[ALL JEERING]
Ex-Marines, ex-Texas Rangers,
rogues, that kind of sh*t.
But Oprah hired Bushido Brown
as her personal bodyguard.
MAN: Come on.
Come on, Jay-Z.
MAN :
We got him.
[GRUNTING]
RUMMY:
Apparently,
only one dude was able
to actually lay a hand
on Oprah's office door.
Yahhh!
They say...
Bushido Brown kept that hand.
I think I just sh*t myself.
No, no.
We can't just stroll up
in there
if Bushido Brown is there.
We need a plan.
And, um...
go change your pants.
HUEY:
Pretty strange, huh?
Armed gunmen as*ault
a bookstore
to kidnap Maya Angelou.
Hey, I heard she had enemies.
Even stranger, Oprah Winfrey
was right across the street
when it happened.
I don't know anything about
no plot to kidnap nobody.
So Ed and Rummy do have
a plan to kidnap Oprah.
["THUGGIN' LUV"

Damn.
[BEEPS]
HUEY:
I call it the Black Power Fist.
The Black Power Fist
is actually a stun glove
that I made with instructions
I found on the Internet.
It delivers
thousands of volts
of imperialism-stopping
electricity
without the need
of superpowers
or secret alien technology.
And it's inexpensive enough
to fit well within
even the most frugal
revolutionary's defense budget.
Okay, so we're gonna enter
at the rear service entrance.
They'd never expect us
to go through there,
because it's in back.
Whoa. Hm.
Didn't think
they'd put guards there.
They really covered
their bases.
So that's it?
That's the plan?
Now what?
I didn't think they'd think
to put guards at the rear.
That was a unknown unknown.
It was a bad plan.
You plan things badly.
Isn't this your brother?
[?]
What's he doin' here?
He's tryin' to stop you.
Really?
Why? What we ever
do to him?
Sound like a hater to me.
Hello?
Yes. There's a little boy coming
right now to hurt Oprah.
He's got a big stupid afro
and a very poor disposition.
He's on the east side
of the building.
A'ight, peace.
Okay, we're on the move.
Let's go.

Hey, in Iraq we was in

Oh, come on, man. Look,

It'll still be fun.
Yeah, man, it's only :.
Come on. We can write

I don't think so, guys.
I gotta get home for dinner.

But he was really annoying,
so they returned him
to the studio minutes later.

for comin' in here...
HUEY: As usual, nobody even
thought about stopping them.
What the f*ck
y'all lookin' at?
Riley had gotten away,
but returned
several hours later
when he realized
he had dropped
