:07:00
His dad is the famous lawyer Larry Horowitz.
:07:03
He defended that baseball player
who killed his wife. He got him off, too...

:07:06
even though they found him
running around...

:07:08
covered in blood with a baseball bat,
screaming, "I killed the bitch!"

:07:13
And that's Lenora Fincher.
:07:15
Her mom was the spokesmodel
for this perfume company...

:07:17
but then she got old and they fired her.
:07:20
And that's Terry something.
:07:23
His parents aren't famous,
so nobody talks to him.

:07:25
I do, though, 'cause I'm a good person.
:07:28
- Hi, Terry.
- It's Dave.

:07:36
- That smells good, what is that?
- Sfeha. Would you like some?

:07:40
- Is it fattening?
- I don't know.

:07:43
I'm on a diet. I better play it safe.
:07:46
I'm organizing this International Food Fair...
:07:48
to raise money
for the Drama Club next week.

:07:49
- You must participate. Will you?
- Okay.

:07:52
Bonus.
:07:54
My hope is that the Fair will not only
raise money for the Drama Club...

:07:58
but also, kind of,
foster a spirit of togetherness...

:08:00
among the multicultural community
here at Roxbury.

:08:07
I have respect for all races...
:08:10
but I'm very glad that I was born white.
:08:14
As a woman, it's the best race to be...
:08:16
especially if you want to become an actress,
like I do.

:08:21
If I wasn't white...
:08:23
then the next thing I'd want to be is Asian,
because a lot of men like Asian girls...

:08:27
because they think they're docile,
and sweet, and subservient...

:08:30
which I don't really think is true...
:08:32
because I once met this Asian girl
at summer camp...

:08:34
and she was a real bitch.
:08:40
If I couldn't be white,
and I also couldn't be Asian...

:08:43
then my third choice
would be African-American...

:08:46
'cause I've always wanted
to be a gospel singer...

:08:48
and also black men are more forgiving
if your butt gets big.

:08:51
Except I definitely want light skin
and Caucasian features...

:08:55
like Vanessa Williams or Halle Berry.
