Down to Earth Page #6
For someone to love you
All you need | is someone who cares
For someone to love you
Someone who will always be there
Well, that was different | than what I thought it would be.
Different good | or different weird?
It was a little bit | of both, I think.
I guess you just didn't | seem like my type.
Not your type. | So, uh, what's your type look like?
It's not all about looks. I mean, | you don't have to be fine or anything.
I just kind of like a guy | with all of his teeth.
Well, that's a good rule. | That's a good rule.
I like a slim guy. | A guy with a goatee.
Nice eyes. | And he's gotta be funny.
Hmm.
I guess I don't have a chance.
- What's your type? | - My type?
I like my women | same way I like my coffee-
Puerto Rican.
- Just playin'. Just playin'. | - You watch it.
Oh, boy, here we are.
So, can I call you?
Well, let me ask you somethin'.
All that stuff you were sayin' | at the hospital,
were you just tryin' | to get with me?
At first, yeah.
Yeah, that's all | I could think about.
Then I remembered what you said. | "Do somethin' positive with your money. "
So I figure, you know, | I'm in this body, I might as well help.
I mean, if I get with you, great.
But if not, | at least somebody'll be happy.
You know what? | I- I better go.
Yeah. I guess I better be goin' too.
Yeah. I wonder | who the Knicks played.
I think they played | the Lakers or somebody-
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. W-Was I wrong?
No, it's- I knew you were | gonna try to kiss me tonight,
and I thought I'd be mad,
but I'm not.
It's- It's somethin' | about your eyes.
You know, the first kiss...
is always in the middle | of a sentence.
It's always like, "Yeah, | tomorrow I'm gonna go to the zoo,
because I got this whole thing | with orangutans, and I just-"
Or...
it could be like, um, "Did you hear | about that new war in Russia?
I heard they were gonna-"
So I can call you, right? | I mean, just to talk.
No nasty talk or anything. Unless | that's what you're into, then, hey!
Good night.
Yes! Yes!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
- My baby! My baby! | - Yes!
- Oh! | - Yes! Yes!
Yes, yes!
Yes! Yes! Yes, yes!
Oh, no | That's how Ruff Ryders roll
- Niggas wanna try, niggas wanna lie | - What, what
Then niggas wonder why | niggas wanna die
Yes! Yes!
Get off my foot, b*tch!
- Okay, let's go. | - Hey! Don't sneak up on me like that.
What are you, The Great Gazoo?
Sorry. Hi. How are you? | I got a new body for you.
I don't need the body anymore. | This one's just fine.
We have about one minute to get you | into this truly fabulous corpse.
Hey, I'm cool with Wellington.
You know why? | 'Cause Sontee's cool with Wellington.
I just waited through Ol' Dirty Bastard, | Mystikal and Silkk the Shocker for you.
Keeping this body | is not an option,
regardless of whether | you're smitten with some girl.
It's not some girl. | It's the girl.
I mean, you got heaven, | But you don't got this, man.
She's fine. She's smart.
We like all the same stuff. | We hate all the same stuff.
She laughs at my stupid jokes.
And I don't have | to censor myself around her.
But you know what? She only knows me | as this guy Wellington.
So I don't want | to up and change now.
Lance, trust me, | it's better this way.
- Yo, money, gimme your wallet. | - One second.
Are you sure I won't die | for 40 years?
Are you sure I won't die | for 40 years?
- Technically, yes- | - Mother-
But this body's just a loaner! | Nobody listens to me.
Come on, man! Rob me! | Don't run! I got money! You bad!
What does that mean, he wants to be | more involved with running the company?
It means, uh... | he wants to be more involved...
with, uh, running... the company.
I thought you had him | under control.
I do. I mean, I did. I don't | really know where this came from.
It's like he's gone crazy.
Maybe the fact you were shtupping | his wife changed his attitude a little.
There's really no need | to get, uh, personal.
I'll tell you | what I take personally:
the statement, "What if | we lose a few million dollars?"
I didn't get into | this business to lose money.
Do you think this goody-two-shoes crap | that Wellington's been spewing...
extends to, say, auditing | the company's finances?
- Jesus, I hope not. | - Blah, blah, blah. Let's just kill him.
What are you laughing about?
Winston, do you want to take | the lead on this one?
Cisco, you know what I need you to do?
I need you to get in contact | with a man named Whitney Daniels.
He lives on 104th and Lennox. | Tell him I need to talk to him.
Uh-
Pretty sweet, huh? | Up here, Mr. Daniels.
Entering second floor.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. | I saw this girl the other day.
She was ugly.
She's so ugly, she's talkin' about | give her a booty call.
I said, "Girl, you so ugly, | I'm gonna give you a zootie call. "
What the hell do you think you're | doing here, huh? This isn't your act.
Calm down. Hey, hey, hey! | Everybody, Whitney Daniels!
Shut up!
You guys have been great, but we're | gonna take a little break right now.
All right. Come on, everybody. | Let's get back to work.
Come on.
What the hell is going on here?
I know it looks kind of crazy, | but if I'm gonna get...
an amateur spots at the Apollo, | I'm gonna need a place to work out.
Y- You wanna do one of | the amateur spots at the Apollo?
You?
What do you do, | have your butlers...
hang around comedy clubs | and steal people's acts?
- You think my act is stolen? | - I know it is.
Personally, I would have | stolen some better material.
But the kid who wrote it, | he used to work it pretty well and-
Two Rheingolds comin' at ya.
Thanks a lot, Cisco.
Damn, you took everything | from the kid, huh?
Don't tell me that Rheingold | is all you can afford, Mr. Wellington.
Whit, I didn't steal anything.
I just want to play the Apollo. You're | the only man who can help me do it.
No. I'm out | of the comedy business.
Last person | I was gonna help is dead.
But, anyway, | he was a special case.
Really? | What was so special about him?
About him? Nothin', really, | ifyou want to know.
He didn't have much talent to speak of.
But no matter | how bad it went-
and, believe me, sometimes | it went really bad-
he wanted to get back onstage.
He was a good kid.
And I wanted to be there | when things got good for him, but-
Thanks for the beer.
Whitney, it's me- Lance.
Uh- I got hit by a truck,
and I went up to heaven, | and they took my body quick.
And I'm in heaven, | and it's all blue.
And this guy- | And then the other guy, Mr. King,
he looked like Ricky Ricardo and-
I don't know if it's drugs you're takin' | or drugs you need to be takin',
but do something.
Whitney, remember when we did | that gig in Atlantic City?
They were supposed to pay us 500, | but they only gave us 250.
And we got real drunk | and hung out with these two girls.
We got so drunk, we thought | they was transvestites.
Turns out they weren't | transvestites.
They were just | two real ugly girls.
