Damn.
Well, well. Lookee, lookee.
I didn't know knickerbockers was back in style.

You will go wherever sheneneh wants you to go.
Gina, are you ready to go to the club?

Girl, you--
Sit on down, girl. You is great.
No, no, no, laquita.
See, the ladies league is a social club
For professional women.
Most own their own businesses.
You saying that's not us?
No.
No, that's what you are trying to say.
Let's see.
O.k., Let me be the judge, o.k.?
Employee.
Employee.
Ooh!
Lookee, lookee.
Sheneneh is the owner of her own salon.
Her own business.
Sheneneh don't work for nobody.
Uh-uh!
Boo-boo-boo-boo!
As you were.
Uh-uh!
Look, sheneneh,
Just because you own your own scare salon
Doesn't mean you can automatically get into the league.
There are other qualifications, miss thing.
Yeah, and they're only bringing in
Two new members this year.
That's straight.
Sheneneh and me. Ha ha ha!
Oh, girl!
Oh, girl.
I don't think so, laquita,
But if you're interested next year,
Maybe we could help you get in.
Help us get in?
You hear this?
Laquita, fan me.
I'm up.
Now, let me tell you something,
You little low-budget salt 'n pepa.
We don't need you to help us get in.
We will get ourselves in. Uh-huh!
Let's go, laquita.
Shoop, shoop!
Uh!
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
Pam. Pam, look.
All the influential women in detroit are here.
I know, gina. This is where we belong.
If we get three or four clients out of this,
I smell a promotion.
[Sniffs]
I smell a corner office with a huge window.
Good afternoon, miss waters, miss james.
I'm glad you could make it.
Thank you so much, miss settles, for inviting us.
We are ever so excited about joining your fine organization.
Ever so excited? Gina, please.
Miss settles, we are hyped.
Take one of my cards. Pass 'em out.
O.k., We're coming.
Pam, nice sucking up.
I know how to suck up, girl.
Hello. Hi.
Ladies, let's come to order.
[Bell rings]
I'd like you all to meet
Gina waters and pamela james,
Two of our finalists.
Hold up. Wait a minute.
Your little club needs sheneneh in it.

Sorry.
Whazzup, girl?
Sheneneh!
How you doing?
What are you doing here?
The same thing as you,
And looking way better, may I add,
With your little tired green army suit on.
Hut two, choo-choo.
Sheneneh, why don't you just leave
Before you embarrass yourself?
Oh, no.
It's too late.
What? What?
Let me tell you something, g.i. h*.
Let me tell you something, o.k.?
You don't mess with me, you hear me?
You better back off!
I got your back!
Bucks on the one with the weave.
Ladies, ladies, what's going on?
Is there a problem?
No, mrs. Settles. There's no problem.
It's just sheneneh and laquita--
They thought they could join your league today,
And they're just a little confused.
Confused? Please, get off of me.
No, no.
Amanda, is it?
Hi, amanda.
Here's my application.
Take that, all right?
Now...
You are the one that is confused, gina.
Don't front and lose a tooth
While you trying to front in front of your friends.
Bam! Drop your whole mouth.
Well, according to our league's bylaws,
We do have to interview all applicants.
So, um, shenequas and la-nehneh,
Please have a seat.
Uh-uh! Hold up.
That's laquita and sheneneh.
Whatever.
Since you all seem to know each other,
Introduce the lady next to you. Sheneneh?
I don't know much about her, but, I mean,
Keep your eye on the prize.
Oh, oh! Oh, you mean her.
You mean the one with the tight eyes and the big face.
Oh, o.k.
Oh, my goodness.
Um, well, that's gina waters.
Ain't much I can say about her.
She go with the brother
That lives across the hall from me.
To be truthfully honest, I don't approve of it.
Uh-uh.
Shut it up, sheneneh.
Hello, I'm gina waters.
I'm vice president of bentley, buford, and diamond,
And this is my beautiful friend pamela james,
And she--she enjoys singing, dancing,
And promoting your businesses.
Your businesses.
Please.
She ain't all that.
Trust me. She ain't all that,
And I think you know what I mean.
Pamela, who's sitting next to you?
That's laquita.
She does nails.
Um, excuse me.
I would also like to add
That I have invented
The new laquita-length manicure,
And I also do tattoos, nose piercing, and, um,
Body waxing.
Ha ha ha.
Snatch it all.
Take that tape--
Take it all off.

For macaroni tony and them.
Don't act like I don't recognize some of y'all
'Cause y'all know what I'm talking about.
Let her keep talking, pam.
The more they talk,
The more damage they'll do.
Girl, we are in there.
Tring-a-ling-a-ling!

Excuse me, amanda, but I don't believe
Rudeness is allowed, is it?
No.
I didn't think so.
Tring-a-ling-a-ling.
Now...
I can currently be seen
Dancing in one of luke's latest videos,
But I don't take nothing off.
I'm a lady.
That's very, um, impressive, miss jenkins,
But on your application
It says you own a beauty salon.
I sure do.
And you need to call my hairdo hot line
'Cause your do is done.
Oh, no, I'm saying that style don't work,
But I could hook you up, though.
I think we've heard enough, miss jenkins.
Oh. Oh, o.k.
Well, don't push, o.k.?
You might not want to push
'Cause I could set it off up in here.
Straight--pow. Oh, lord.
How are you? Are you all right?
Now...
If our new friends
Will follow miss whitmore to the door,
We'll review their applications.
I don't think we have to worry about them anymore.
O.k., See you tomorrow, ladies.
Toodles.

Are you related to walter whitmore the dentist?
That's my husband.
Oh! Oh! Then I know your daughter.
Walter bring her in every saturday
To get her toes done.
We don't have a daughter.
Ooh. My bad.
Maybe I shouldn't have said nothing.
Don't no man be buying his daughter five fur coats.
I'm so sorry, miss whitmore,
But your man living foul.
Not for much longer.
Excuse me, ladies.
Go ahead.
That's right, mrs. Whitmore.
Ohh.
The truth will set you free.

What's your man's name?
Beauregard settles.

Oh, my god.
He don't need to be married,
Not the way he running around.
Do you know george jones?
George! George!
Humpity-humpity george.
H!
I never thought it'd be so easy
To join the league.
I almost feel sorry for sheneneh and laquita.
They really tried to get in.
For what? Too bad, so sad.
Tomorrow we'll find out that we got in
And they didn't, o.k.?
[Knock on door]
Get that for me.
[Knock knock]
Pfwwww!
Pfwwww!
Hey, hey, all right. All right.
Sheneneh had told me to come over here
And make peace with y'all.
That is really nice. You know what?
We're sorry about the way we acted.
Uh-huh. You should be,
But we're willing to forget about it if you is.
If you apologizing, then I'm cool.
Well, look.
We got some tickets to the wu-tang concert.
Y'all could roll out with us if y'all want.
Wu-tang is fine.

Y'all don't even get your nails did,
With them dishpan hands.
Whatever. Look, you can just go over there
And tell sheneneh we're too smart
To fall for her stupid tricks.
Thank you.

Ladies, what about the meeting?
We're ready to become members of the league.
Somebody get whitmore so we can get this party started right.
Here I am.
I'm sorry I'm late, ladies.
Wu-tang and I watched the sun come up
Over the detroit river.
Now, look, girls. I know we're a little worn out.
Let's get to it.
Put our hands together for our newest members.
Thank you so much, ladies.
We're so happy to--
I'm sure you are. For our two newest members
Sheneneh and laquita!
[Cheering]
I told you, girl.
I--i told you, girl.
It's just about being yourself.
And, sheneneh, you're on the board of directors.
You go, girl!
Well, you go, girl.
You go, and you go, and you go.
Let's give it up, y'all.
Yeah! Yeah!
Wait a minute. Wait a minute!
How did they get in?
Sheneneh showed us that we should loosen up more
And have more fun, live a little.
Live a little!
Well, what about us?
We want to be members, too.
Sheneneh.
Oh.
What do you think?
I don't know.
What if I want to come here and relax?
Do I got to be looking in their faces?
They don't like me, anyway, so I just--
I don't know.
All right. Fine. Let 'em in.
They all right, I guess.
Oh, all right.
We'll let you in, too,
Because you're sheneneh's neighbors.
That's right.
We are in there.
Yeah, you're in there.
Now that you're in there,
Thank me.
Just eat it.
Just thank me.
Thank you. Thank you.
I cannot hear you through the mumbles.
Thank me again.
Thank you! Thank you!
Boom. You blew it up.
Thank you. Don't they look lovely?
Yes, they do.
Now you realize you owe me, don't you?
I want you to get out there
And hand my flyers out.
You bring me some new business to my salon.
Sheneneh's sho 'nuff salon. You hear me?
I am not handing out nobody's flyers.
You will hand out--
Amanda!
No! No, we're going to--
We're going to hand them.
I want to hear your friend closely.
Are you going to hand?
Will you hand?
I'm going to hand them out.

Just to get into the ladies league.
That's o.k. At least we got in.
If you hadn't been sucking up so much,
We wouldn't have had all those problems.
Sucking up? Don't even try.
What about you, miss thing?
"Don't go to the concert.
Sheneneh's tricking us."
Please. I don't talk like that.
See? You're doing it now.
Whatever!
Look, I'm telling you, that is it.
No more road trips with you.
I ain't got to hang with you, then.
Baby, what happened?
The whole time, most all he talked about was pam.
Even at the game.
"I wonder what pam doing."
I told him I don't know.
She's probably in a river swatting fish.
Hey, I am tired of you talking about pam, man.
That's right, baby.
You do need to ease up.
You don't hear me talking
About how many pillows gina done worn out
With that big dome of hers.
Oh!
Tommy!
I know you ain't talking,
Head sanford.
[Singing theme to sanford and son]
That's right, baby.
What?
Don't even try talking about my man
When you're standing next to sir short-a-lot.
Give me five for that because I like that one.
Let me step in there.
I didn't say nothing about those gaps in your mouth, did i?
You need a sign that says "next tooth a mile."
Thataway.
Thataway.
Whoo!
Next tooth thataway.
Yes, martin!
Yes, baby.
At least I'm tall enough
To get on all the rides at disneyland.
Ha ha ha ha!
That's right, baby!
You tell him!
Get her, baby. Support your man.
Baby, I see why they get along so well.
They have a very sharing relationship.
She shaves his head, he shaves her beard.
Ohh!
Magic shave ain't going to help that.
Magic shave ain't going to do it.
You know what I'm sayin'?
But, gina, if he was shaving your head,
He'll be shaving all day.
Uh! Uh! Uh!
Oh, head jokes.
