Matthew 18 Page #3
- Come on...
- What did you say?
- Hmm?
- Nothing.
- No loud rape music.
Are you talking about rap music?
Rap. Rape.
What's the difference?
I just know that I have
friendly neighbors around here,
and they will have none of it.
Now, also, you will be
paying all the utilities.
And if you don't,
they will be shut off.
Do you understand?
- Now...
- Yeah?
Let me give you a tour.
Right this way.
Okay.
This here is
Lifton Tyler's place.
I like Lifton. He's nice.
This is the kitchen.
Can we use the kitchen?
I'd like you to ask my
permission first, please.
This will be your room.
Great.
Ah, this looks so great.
Oh, my God!
Whoo, all right, then.
So, yeah, now...
I'm gonna go see
my aunt Jessie, so...
I'll take those,
but I'll see you later.
Thank you.
Oh, man.
That plane food was terrible.
This is delicious.
You like my baked chicken?
You know I make the
Oh, Sister Dickenson,
she used to think
she can out-chicken me
but she can't out-chicken me.
She really can't
out-chicken me no more.
She couldn't out-chicken me
when she was living,
and she passed away last week.
Aunt Jessie!
I'm sorry, Lord!
It's the truth.
And your uncle Ellis
used to love my chicken.
- I know I'm a chicken baking
something girl.
- Mmm-hmm.
Mmm, and thank you for saving me
from that woman earlier.
She's just old and crabby
and ain't had any in 50 years.
- All dried up.
- I know.
Well, listen, who am I fooling?
I haven't had any in
So I'm going through
a bit of a dry spell myself.
Weren't you talking
to that one guy?
- Charles Dixen?
- Yeah!
That weasel!
What happened with him?
He can't handle
all this, honey.
He can't take it.
You know, some men just can't
handle an aggressive woman.
That is true. Yes.
I agree with that.
Sometimes aggressive women make
a man all insecure and nervous.
And then li'l Johnny
want to run and hide.
And when li'l Johnny
run and hide, they wanna
run and hide with it.
Oh, my God!
And I say good, go.
Oh, my God. You are too much.
You are too much.
I know.
So, look um...
What do your um,
mother and father
think about the fact that
you came out here to
Minneapolis to go to school?
Well...
They're coming around, I guess.
But, you know,
out there with them, so...
Well, I can understand that.
You know they love you a lot.
But, um, it is good that
you got out and...
You know, see the world
and get some independence,
you know?
That's what I told them.
Well, speaking of independence,
I have a little
present for you.
A little gift.
Not much. Just a li'l something.
What's this?
Aunt Jessie, you don't have
to give me this.
No, I want you to have it.
They raised $2500 for me
before I came out here.
So let me borrow $50 then.
Listen, you keep it anyway.
Just, you know,
some pocket change.
Thank you, thank you,
thank you, but...
I promise you I will be
getting a part time job
while I'm out here.
I'm glad to hear that.
How do you plan on
getting back and forth
to this part time job?
I haven't figured it out yet,
but the bus line
is pretty easy, right?
No. The bus system is rat sh*t.
No niece of mine is
gonna ride the bus
if I can help it,
and I can help it,
so why don't you drive...
The car!
Aunt Jessie, really?
Thank you!
- Well, that's just a...
- Oh, my God!
passed away, I've been
driving his car,
which is now mine.
That car has been
sitting here collecting dust,
so it's yours to drive
while you're here.
Oh, thank you so much.
- Mmm-hmm
- Aw!
It's all good.
Thank you.
When do we get to see it?
Well, let's clear
the dishes first.
- All right.
- Okay.
And then I'm gonna need you to
go help wash my clothes,
and make up my bed,
clean the bathroom.
No, I'm kidding. Come on!
Mom.
Yes, I know what I'm doing.
It's Michelle's choice.
Michelle's choice?
What are you talking about?
You know.
Jessie will be there.
She'll be fine.
Jessie? You know
Jessie's not fit, right?
the side of the road.
Jessie? Man, no!
You know that was an accident.
An accident?
Have you spoken to her?
What is wrong with you?
And Harris.
Michelle needs to be here
in seminary school.
That was the plan.
remain in D.C.
and you need to
get her back here, now.
Claire, this is not good.
We're gonna have
to get together and
go into prayer on this.
Because you are not
following the plan.
What plan?
Claire, you know what
we're talking about.
Claire, who you talking to
this time of the night?
I got to go.
Claire Eugene, don't you
hang up that phone.
I got to go.
Claire?
You know who it is.
Oh, my God!
What the hell?
You scared the sh*t out of me.
You scared me.
What the hell is wrong with you?
Oh, my God! I'm sorry.
Have you seen an old lady
walk around here?
You mean other than
the grateful dead?
Yes, an additional old lady.
Not Miss Hillshire.
An additional old lady.
Like Tyler Perry?
No.
You're not doing any drugs?
Stop it.
No, I'm not on anything.
Oh, my God. Okay.
You know what?
It's all in my head probably.
out of this than I should.
I tell you what?
If the b*tch come around again,
knock on my door and
I'll cold-knock the b*tch out.
- Right.
- Okay.
- You good? All right.
- All right, Lifton. Yes.
Yes, I will.
Probably some ghost...
Fat Kung Fu.
- You all right? Deal?
- Okay, Lifton.
- All right. Bye.
- Thank you.
- Let me know if you see anyone.
- Okay.
You must be Michelle Jamieson.
Yes. Hi, how are you?
Good. It's so nice to finally
put a face to the name.
Um, how was your flight?
It was great.
- Have a seat.
- Thank you.
Okay.
Michelle, you have been
one of the top recruits
for our pre-med program,
and we are thrilled
to have you here.
Thank you.
And I've done my research and
the program and the scholarship.
Oh, good.
Coming from D.C.,
we know that Georgetown is
one of our biggest competitors.
Now, I've seen your SAT scores.
Pretty impressive.
Thanks, but I'm sure you have
quite a range of applicants
around here that you could
have chosen from.
Yes, we do.
Michelle, the university
attracts and enjoys,
among it's student-body.
We pull students from
all over the country,
to all over the world.
It's something that
Have you settled in to
your new place yet?
It's coming along.
Hmm. I love that neighborhood.
Well now, as part of
the pre-med program,
there are a lot

So we'll have to plan your
class schedule very carefully.
- And classes fill up fast,

Oh, and before you leave
you'll want to visit
the university bookstore.
