The Nutty Professor Page #8
Come on! Help me
burn this stuff up!
Yeah! Hey, this is goin'
down to Mr. Wilson downstairs!
The roof, the roof,
the roof is on fire!
The roof, the roof,
the roof is on fire!
Sherman?
Sherman?
- Sherman?
- Sherman?
Sherman?
Sherman, is that you?
Are you all right?
Oh, hi, Carla. Hi.
- Did you have a party last night?
- Oh, no.
My cleanin' lady's, uh-
Cleanin' lady's sick, so I
got to clean up myself.
I see.
You sure she didn't die?
Oh. Look, I'm a little embarrassed
about the way how my place is lookin'.
- Why don't I clean up
and get back at you later?
- No, no, no.
Sherman, I need
to talk to you now.
- It's about Buddy.
- He hasn't been misbehavin', has he?
He's an egotistical pig,
and I wish I never met him.
But, Sherman, I owe you
a very big apology.
- You owe me an apology?
- Yes. Last night-
I was only trying to help-
I insisted that Buddy Love
speak to Harlan Hartley.
He took all the credit
for your research.
- Now Dean Richmond-
- Where's Buddy?
- Oh-
- Buddy came here?
- No!
- So what's this?
- Are you guys-
You guys share girls?
- Oh, no, no, no, no.
- I guess I was next on the list.
- No, you don't understand.
I cannot believe
I came over here feelin' sorry for you.
Carla, will you please
just listen to me?
- I assure you it is not
what it appears to be!
- You're no better than he is!
You are just as sick as Buddy,
and I don't wanna see you or him again!
Ca-Carla, please
just listen. Carla!
"Eviction notice"?
"Violation of noise ordinance"?
- Professor?
- We have to get to the lab right away.
- Whatever it is...
is gonna have to wait until later.
No, that's the thing.
There's isn't gonna be a "later."
Professor, what did you do last night?
Jason, I have
such a bad hangover,
I honestly
do not remember.
Well, the good news is
I'm not going to kill you,
not physically, anyway.
I am, however,
going to kill you professionally.
You're not only fired
from this institution,
but I'm going to make sure
other college in the state,
the country, the world,
maybe even the universe.
Unless, of course, they're looking
for teachers on Planet Fat.
Oh, by the way,
Buddy Love is going to be using
your invitation to the alumni ball,
so show a little school spirit
and see that he gets it.
We're in the money
Put that food down!
They ate yesterday!
...really tight and say,
"Yes, I can."
- Say it again.
- Yes, I can!
Hey, chunky drawers!
Hey, tank ass!
What are you eatin'? Muffin? Strudel?
Put it down. Let me talk to you.
If you're receivin' this
message, that means you
went and plumped back up...
to your usual,
fat, sorry, stuff-my-face-
'til-I'm-almost-dead self.
Is that what you did?
Shame on you, Sherman!
Do you know what you did last night?
You had the time of your life.
Do you know you can get arrested
in 50 states for the sh*t
you did just last night?
- Oh, my goodness!
- You know what you need to do?
You need to go down to the
laboratory and mix up another
batch of this blue stuff.
Come on back to the party, Sherman,
because Carla doesn't want you.
She wants me.
Me, not you.
So come join me,
because you can't beat me.
You can't beat me.
You can't beat me!
Yes, I can!
- Yes, I can.
Professor, I got your message.
What's up?
I'm goin' to that alumni ball tonight,
and I'm gonna reclaim my life.
Yes! I'm so glad
to hear you say that.
Get things straight
with Miss Purty,
- and I'm gonna get that grant
from Harlan Hartley.
- Excellent.
Jason, we have seen the last
of Buddy Love.
Horace, good to see you.
The jitterbug contest just started.
I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
Your table's upstairs.
That's another joke.
Ha-ha-ha-ha!
When did you marry
Sharon Stone?
Keep those legs crossed.
Ha-ha-ha-ha!
Hartley! Damn it!
And where the hell
is Buddy Love?
- No sign of him yet, sir.
- Here's an idea.
- Find him!
- Yes, sir!
- Harlan.
- Well, Richmond. Where's
your Professor Buddy Love?
Oh, with you it's always business.
Let's get to know each other man-to-man.
Now, if our files are correct,
you and your fabulous wife
have a terrific daughter.
I'm divorced,
and my daughter is in rehab.
So you're saying
our files are not correct.
Listen, you pompous butt-kisser.
I have a check in my pocket
for $10 million.
Your Buddy Love has 'til midnight
to prove that formula works.
He'll be here, the formula works,
and you have the check.
Really? On you now?
Because on behalf of- Which pocket?
No, don't tell me.
Let me smell it. Punch?
Oh, come on now.
Look at this.
I can't eat this.
This stuff is too tiny.
I can't get full
off this mess!
I think it's wonderful,
all the precious little finger foods.
Finger food?
I got a finger for 'em.
I ain't paid no hundred-dollar ticket
for no finger food.
I could go down to Subway,
get me a sandwich for three dollars.
I gotta pay a hundred-dollar ticket
for finger food?
You must be crazy to think
I'm gonna eat this-
- You're getting on
my damn nerves! Shut up!
- I'm hungry!
There's Carla. I wonder
if she's seen Sherman. Carla!
Carla. Oh.
Oh, oh!
- Oh, you look fabulous.
- Thank you, Mrs. Klump.
- Have you seen Sherman?
- Yeah, where's Sherman at?
I ain't come to pay no
hundred-dollar ticket
to suffer this alone.
- Cletus, shut up, please!
- Hey! That's strike two.
I don't think Sherman
will be coming tonight.
Yes, he is. Sherman called me
and told me make sure we was here.
He got a big announcement
to make- something about
gettin' it all off his chest.
Have you noticed that Sherman's
been acting kind of strange lately?
Sherman has definitely
been acting strange lately.
I knew it!
See, Cletus? I told you.
You really think I be listenin' to you.
I ain't listenin' to you!
Well, Mrs. Klump, I hope you have
a wonderful evening.
Oh, you do the same.
Thank you so much.
So precious. Look at
your little purple dress.
They gonna think we twins.
- Mr. Klump.
- Oh, yeah, yeah.
- Fabulous.
You know, Cletus, I think something's
goin' on between her and Sherman.
You don't go get up
in Sherman's business.
That's Sherman's business.
Sherman's business?
That's my business. Sherman is my baby.
Sherman's 35 years old!
What you talkin' about he's your baby?
- I don't wanna hear it.
Shut up, please! Carla!
- That's strike three, damn it!
Don't you walk away from me,
goddamn it!
- Hey, this is the last of it, Professor.
- I'll tell you this, Jason.
If I'm gonna change my life, it's not
gonna come from some magic drink.
Gotta come from a lot of hard work
and exercise and plenty of these.
Good-bye, Buddy Love.
Hello, Megashake.
Professor?
Oh!
I lost 300 pounds
in 30 seconds!
- Thanks, Megashake!
- You tricked him!
You damn right, hamster boy.
I knew Sherman was gonna go soft on me.
That can wreak havoc
on a man's sex life.
See, I've done
some calculations of my own.
If I drink 500 milliliters
