:07:00
Wait! That's my husband!
:07:01
I lied on my application.
:07:02
KENNY: No, no! Bird!
:07:04
BIRD: Wait, officer!
Please, somebody help!

:07:04
They ask if you ever
been convicted, and...

:07:08
I checked no.
:07:11
You and Miles, man...
:07:13
y'all got yourselves together
on the job.

:07:14
AHMAD: Kicking Simuel's ass
was one thing...

:07:15
I was just hopin'
if--if you knew anybody...

:07:17
but being an ex-felon
with a gun...

:07:18
or...of any job openings.
:07:18
Ianded Uncle Lem back where
he didn't want to be: jail.

:07:21
Man, I'll do anything.
:07:23
We're talking serious time.
:07:23
Yo, man, we'll find you
something, all right?

:07:25
Sure enough, the family
was starting to fall apart.

:07:26
Cool, man. Thanks, man.
:07:32
Now I just gotta find a way
to explain this to Bird.

:07:34
BIRD: No!
:07:35
She's high-maintenance.
:07:36
What happened?
:07:38
She walks around the house
in Chanel sandals...

:07:41
and shit like that.
:07:42
I don't want her to think
I'm livin' off her.

:07:45
No, you don't want
to tell her, man.

:07:46
FAITH: Hey.
:07:49
-Why not?
-'Cause you ain't got a job.

:07:50
[Music playing softly]
:07:51
-You don't wanna tell a woman--
-A black woman.

:07:51
Teri in?
:07:53
Uh, she's at the hospital.
:07:54
...especially a black woman,
that you ain't got a j-o-b.

:07:57
It's all right for them
to lie around, but let a man--

:08:01
Any change?
:08:01
-A brother.
-Especially a brother.

:08:02
No.
:08:02
You could be fixin'
the kitchen seats...

:08:06
LEM: Or waterin' plants.
:08:08
KENNY: Washin' the dishes.
:08:09
LEM: Takin' the garbage out.
:08:10
Let me give you
a little somethin'.

:08:15
No matter what you do
around the house...

:08:16
[Stops music]
:08:17
they still will consider you..
:08:19
LEM: A trifling nigger.
:08:19
It's beautiful.
:08:22
For your CD?
:08:23
BOTH: Don't tell her.
:08:24
I don't know.
:08:25
AHMAD: That was good.
:08:26
MILES: Ha ha! Got you
with your own trick, right?

:08:26
It's something
I'm messing around with.

:08:30
-Hey.
-Hey.

:08:31
Hey...
:08:32
AHMAD: Hey, Aunt Teri.
:08:33
TERl: Hey, sweetie.
You staying with us?

:08:33
any news on your audition?
:08:35
AHMAD: Yeah.
:08:35
[Giggles]
:08:36
MILES: Yeah. Kenny and Max
need a little time.

:08:37
Get out of here!
:08:38
Ha ha ha ha ha.
:08:40
Kelly's with Bird.
:08:40
Oh, yeah,
I'm pretty happy about it.

:08:43
I'm sure you are.
:08:43
I got your favorite tonight.
:08:46
I spent many hours slaving.
:08:47
I was so scared.
:08:48
You?
:08:50
[Faith giggles]
:08:53
I gave two weeks
at my firm today.

:08:54
I'm looking forward to it.
:08:56
Aunt Teri?
:08:58
Is Big Mama gonna get her leg
cut off?
