I have to stay here, too.

You wouldn't catch me cleaning up after no man.

How do you handle it with your man?

Oh, I forgot. You don't have one, do ya?

You really didn't have to go there, gina.

Ha ha ha!

We still on for tonight?

Yeah. Martin and the guys are going to the game.

I've never seen them so excited.

Before I forget, hand me their tickets off the table.

O.k., No problem.

There aren't any tickets here, gina.

Yeah, pam, they're right there.

No, they're not.

See?

O.k., Wait, wait, wait!

Ohh!

Oh--oh, my god, pam, I think I threw them away!

Martin's going to k*ll you.

The trash bag!

Girl, you better find those tickets.

The bag is stuck in the chute!

I think I can reach it!

O.k., Wait a minute. Let me get your feet.

Just watch my nails.

Wait, I got your feet. You all right?

Yeah.

All right--damn! I broke a nail!

Ohh...oh, gina?

I'm sorry!

[Gagging]

Oh, I'm sorry, gina.

O.k., Watch the outfit.

Watch the outfit.

Ohh...

You o.k.?

Are you o.k.? I'm sorry.

Well...

Looky-look.

Sheneneh, don't start with me, please!

Little miss trash day.

Well, I guess the recession got to you, too, huh?

Sheneneh, go crawl back into your hole, o.k.?

We're busy looking for something.

Nyah! O.k.?

We'll have to search the dumpster for the piston tickets.

Whoa, whoa. Piston tickets?

For tonight's game?

I got piston tickets-- front row.

Aah!

What?

Sheneneh!

Girl!

O.k., Look, sheneneh, I will do anything for those tickets.

You said anything?

Anything! Please!

Ohh...

Well, o.k.

What I want is...

I hear she's a songstress.

She likes to sing. She likes to blow.

Ooh! Ooh!

What I want her to do is sing one of my songs.

I want her to sing

Old macdonald had a farm

Facing the wall now!

What? You must be crazy.

You're telling me to get on my knees

And crawl like some dog?

I ain't no dog!

Face the wall and sing old macdonald.

I want the wall.

I want th--

Old macdonald!

I want the tickets.

You want the tickets?

Look, sheneneh, keep pam out of it.

I want the tickets. Make me do something.

Oh, please, all right? O.k.?

I'm always tired of you coming in the hallways.

"Aww, stop it. Oh, stop it.

Break it up!"

I guess you don't want to mess with me

'Cause you know what a good a*s-whuppin' feels like,

Don't you?

But you know what?

That sounds like an interesting idea.

Let me think about that for a moment.

Right.

Well, I mean, I could have kicked both of their a*s.

I mean, what, are you sure?

Ahh.

O.k., Gina, I got it.

All right.

You work in my shop this morning--

Sheneneh's sho 'nuf hair salon--

And you can have those tickets.

I don't know, sheneneh.

I don't think that's a very good idea.

...

...

...

Eh! Eh! Eh! Off! Deal is off!

Come on, sheneneh!

Get out of my face!

Shene--

Don't worry about her.

I know where we can get the ultimate hook-up.

I got to take a bath.

Pam, I'm cold, and we're in an alley.

Gina, he's coming, o.k.?

Ooh! Ooh!

Ooh-ooh-ooh!

Ooh! Ooh!

Ooh-ooh-ooh!

[Chanting] I say jerome's in the house.

I say jerome's in the ha-ooh-ah-ouse.

He's the man!

So what's the matter?

I mean, you can't call nobody?

I called you about the tickets this morning,

Didn't i, jerome?

Oh, oh, so that's it, huh?

You only call romy-rome when you need something?

No, no!

No, no, no, no!

No! You're our friend, jerome.

I'm your friend?

You sweet on the rome? Y'all sweet on the rome?

Come here, girl!

Aw, you little darlings, you!

Look here, now that I got y'all in the mix,

Why don't we go on down to the motel six?

Jerome...

You got it.

Mmm...mmm...

Aah...

Oh, wait. Hold on, here.

You know what I'm saying?

I'm a old mack from way back.

Don't be sittin' down at the concession stand talkin' to the fat man.

You just smile and float...float...

Float on--

Hey, hey.

Hey, I'm too smooth to be embarrassed.

Check that out. There you go.

Thank you! Thank you so much.

You saved my life. Thank you so much!

Gangster lean.

Say...

Where's my money?

O-oh...

You done took the wrong batch.

You done took the wrong batch.

Oh, you done took the wrong batch.

Girl, you better give me those.

Those might be collector's items.

Come on. You and your hook-ups!

Man, jerome, I thought you would come through.

What, what, what? Oh, junk in the trunk.

Junk in the trunk!

Whoo! Girl...

You sho' is swollen 'round about your colon!

Ohh!

Well, look who came crawling back

On her ashy little knees!

What do you need-- some lotion?

Why don't you just spit it down?

Sheneneh, look, I'm going to make this as fast as possible.

This is not easy for me, o.k.?

O.k.

Uh-huh.

I'll work in your shop this morning for the basketball tickets.

Pronunciate. I thought--

Aren't you a college student?

Pronunciate!

I will work in your shop--

Ah! Not with an attitude.

W--uh--well... The whole day.

O.k.

Oh--hey...o.k.

All right, but wait a minute.

First, uh-uh. No, no.

You ain't working in my shop looking like annie, o.k.?

All right?

You've got to have a professional look.

[Whimpering]

Uh...

Uh, rhodesia...

Rhodesia, come here for a minute.

What you need, sheneneh?

Keep an eye on the new girl.

I don't trust her.

I don't like her, and she don't like me.

She's just working off her debts.

No problem. I'll watch your back.

Oh, oh, oh, sheneneh!

Can you make me look like this?

Laquita...

I ain't no plastic surgeon, o.k.?

Don't be bringing me no picture of whitney houston.

You're not whitney houston.

You're not even bobby brown, o.k.?

O.k.? I'm sorry. O.k.?

Now what you do is make it your prerogative,

Bring me a picture of flavor-flav, and we'll talk.

All right?

Oh, girl, you're so crazy!

Yeah, I'm so crazy.

Gina, all right.

I'm here to help you out any way I know how.

You o.k.?

Girl...

Pam, look at my hair. Look at it!

Well, maybe if it didn't snap back so hard.

Are we

Sitting down...

Little miss lazy dukes?

Oop! There it is!

Sweep.

Sweep,o.k.?

It's onemotion.

Sweep,o.k.?

I did not come here to sweep.

Let me do something like rhodesia.

Oh, please, o.k.?

That takes skill. That is hard work.

I--wait, sheneneh. Look...

I have done hair before.

Pickin' pam's buckshots don't count, all right?

O.k., O.k., Fine.

You want to do something?

Shampoo laquita.

Laquita!

Good.

Time for your shampoo, girl.

Uh-huh. Now, you do know how to shampoo, huh?

I mean, you do wash your own hair, don't you?

Yes, I do.

At least I don't have

To take mine off to wash it.

No, here...uh-uh.

Um... Excuse me, laquita.

I got me a little insubordination here.

I need some privacy.

You might want to watch your mouth

If you want those tickets, you know?

Because you don't have them yet, o.k.?

Huh? O.k.?

Now get the shampoo.

Lather it up.

Sud it up!

O.k., O.k., O.k.!

Hi. How you doing?

What are you getting done today?

Oh, I want a bond weave

With some burgundy finger waves

And some glitter.

Are you sure that's what you want?

What are you saying, I won't look good?

Oh, I'm not saying that.

It's just, you know...

Burgundy finger waves?

Excuse me.

Sheneneh!

Who is this girl

You've got working on my hair?

She's trippin'!

Oh, no! I was just saying--

Uh-uh, you are not saying nothing.

I was just trying to help.

Help me into the poorhouse!

Raise up my blood sugar?

Sheneneh, this gal is trying to k*ll me!

Oh, lord, have mercy!

Sugar!

M-myra, look, please, o.k.?

Forgive her, because she is new.

I got her cheap from the halfway house.

All right.

Uh-uh. Wait a minute, sheneneh.

I said I would work for you,

But I will not be disrespected!

Oh, yes, you will!

What?

If you want these.

Uh-huh, uh-huh.

Miss college girl, miss booj-wa-zee!

Sheneneh, break it up.

We're out of neutralizer.

I will go to the beauty supply store.

You do me a favor while I'm gone.

Count the days on the calendar,

And make sure they're all there.

Can you handle that?

Oh!

Bourgie...

Grab mrs. Jackson and set her in that chair.

Look... Mrs. Jackson--

Don't touch anything.

Come on, myra.

Go to the bowl.

O.k., Myra, I'll be back for you.

Did you get your soda? I'll get it.

I'll check you in a minute.

Oh, no.

Now, I don't believe this.

No, this heifer is not running my shop.

Gina?

Yeah?

What are you doing?

I was just giving a customer her change.

See, sheneneh?

I told you I could do it.

I even gave myra her perm, girl.

Sheneneh, sheneneh...

Gave myra a perm without neutralizer?

Oh! Oh, I forgot!

Oh, my god, I forgot!

The neutralizer!
