(Audience laughs)

Tisha:
That never gonna get old.

E:
Yea, oh. Dede asked If hex can move in with you guys and they’re going on a date tonight.

Tisha:
Why does Hex need to move in with us?

E:
I don’t know.

Tisha:
Well, if he's gonna move in with us. He’s gonna pay rent like you and Janet.

E:
Wait, when and why do I need to pay rent? I don’t even live with you.

Tisha:
E, you eat up almost all our food. You spend the night, you use our shower every time you’re about to leave, the list goes on. You act like you live there. But you’re lucky my family knows you and your brothers since we were kids.

E:
Ok. *Laughs*

Tisha arrives at a drive-thru. She orders some corn-dogs, drinks. She pays for the food and drinks and they go home. They enter the mansion.

Tisha:
We’re back! Damn!

Mickey:
Well, what do you think?

Tisha:
Wow, I'm speechless. You did this all by yourself?

Janet walks in.

Janet:
No, I helped him.

E:
Knew it! Hey, Ms. Jackson.

Janet:
Oh, Hi Erica! Wait, you’re real! Congrats, Mick, you got a woman!

(Audience laughs)

Mickey; What do you mean?

Janet:
Tisha told me that Erica was your girlfriend. I didn’t believe it. Now, I do! *Goes in the kitchen*

Mickey:
We’re going through this, again?

Tisha:
Yerp! You know that Erica loves you.

(Audience laughs)

Tisha:
Anyway, we also visited the store and got some things to do facials and stuff.

Mickey:
Oh, ok! E, you can wash their hair. Janet, you can do nails, face, and hair. Tis, you can welcome people in and give them snacks. I’ll count the money.

Tisha:
Do we need some people to get some money?

Mickey:
Oh yeah! Everyone, start calling all people you know that need to save some money.

Tisha, Erica, and Mickey begin calling some friends. Tisha texts Jenny to ask people around their campus. 30 minutes later, a few of their friends arrived and everyone began working.

--------------------------------------

School ends:
The girls start walking home with P.L.

Dede:
P.L, why are you following us home?

P.L:
I was?

Others:
Yes!

P.L:
Well, I got a text from my sister and she said she was doing a spa at your house. And I thought I'd check it out.

Hex:
O…...k

Jenny:
*Whispers to Dede* Does he know that Tisha is at home?

Dede:
*Whispers to Jenny* I don’t think so. But let’s play dumb, just in case.

(Audience laughs)

They continued walking home.

Dede:
What the-?

Tisha:
Oh, hey girls!

Jenny:
What happened to the living room?

Erica:
We transformed it into a spa.

Jenny:
But there are plenty of spas in town.

Janet:
Yea, but the prices there are high.

Tisha:
Why don’t we offer you make-up, D? You got a date tonight.

Dede:
Ok, but if you mess it up…..I’m calling Valtellina. *Sits down*

Tisha:
Ok, *Sees P.L* Jenny, do me a favor. Do Della for me. I got someone else I need to help.

(Audience laughs)

Tisha:
*Walks to P.L* Hey, Professor Leggendo! So, what brings you by? You changed your mind and want me?

(Audience laughs)

P.L:
Nerp! Janet told me that you guys were doing a spa here. Just wanted to see it, gotta go!

Tisha:
*Stops him* Why don’t you stay? I can take of your skin, take you to our mud bath/pool. Take you to my bedroom and you can take me.

P.L:
I’d rather take a bullet to my brain.

(Audience laughs)

Mickey:
Um, this is weird.

Janet:
What’s wrong, baby?

Mickey:
This flour Tisha got for the masks. It feels weird. And lumpy. *Checks the bag* Oh no!

(Audience “oh no”)

Janet:
What’s wrong?

Mickey:
Where’s Tisha and Erica?

Erica:
*Pops from behind the counter* I’m right here, boo!

(Audience laughs)

Mickey:
We’ve got a problem! The “flour” you girls got for the face mask. It’s not flour, it’s white cement!

Erica:
That’s impossible! When I looked in the bag, it said “flour”. Wait, there was someone in front of us. Tia bumped into them and must have grabbed their bag!

Tisha:
Guys, what’s wrong?

Erica:
Long story short: The flour we got is cement!

Tisha:
What?! What are we gonna do?! Wait, who was in charge of the facials?

Erica:
I think Mickey and I were. How many people did we do?

Mickey:
Um…..about 2 dozen.

Tisha:
Ok, how many people are drying or already done drying?

Mickey:
12 are done and the other half are either waiting or still drying!

(Audience laughs)

Tisha:
What?! OMG!!

Mickey:
Well, what are we going to do?!

Tisha:
We gonna do something, or Mom’s gonna get sued by a lot of people

Mickey:
What you mean “ Mom’s gonna get sued?” This was our idea! Look, just clean up what y’all can.

--------------------------------------

After 5 hours of cleaning lots of faces. They sit on the couch.

Mickey:
Ok, new idea!

Tisha:
Well, can we get some food first? I can’t think of any ideas on an empty stomach. We can go to that restaurant, you know that cook and put on a show for you while you’re eating.

Mickey:
Or we can order take-out and put on Aunt Mo’nique’s comedy show. The one nightstand.

Tisha:
Ok. We can do that.

She sees Dede and Jenny come in.

Tisha:
Hey guys. Sorry about your face, De. I’ll make it up to you later. Right now, Mickey and I are gonna pick up some food and watch Auntie’s show when we get back. Y’all coming?

Jenny:
Nah.

Dede:
We good.

Tisha:
Ok.

Tisha, Janet, Mickey, and E left. Jenny goes into the theater room and puts in one of Tisha’s old stand-up comedy tapes. She turns on the T.V.

T.V

Tisha:
Well, I'm-a tell y’all something I did once. Y’all, i don’t know how my brother, Mickey, is so damn calm in something? Well, that’s not me.

(Audience laughs)

Tisha:
Well, it kinda is me. One time, Mama took all of her kids to the park for one summer. I was about 12 or 16 when this happened too. Mickey and I are playing the ring toss game. Mama told us to watch them, and you know how you doing something, you focus on and you don’t want no one to bother you and you say “Yea”. “Ok,” “I’ll do it soon”

(Audience Laughs)

Tisha:
I did that to my mother, she had to go to some meeting. The babies were with us. After 2 and a half hours. It was time to go. And y’all know Mickey looks around for the kids, acting like he can’t find them? Well, I didn't do that. I was running around the whole park yelling some “Dede! Jenny! Oh, sh*t, Mama’s gonna kiss my ass if I don't find y’all!

(Audience laughs)

1 hour later:
Janet, Mickey, E, and Tisha come back. Tisha opens the door.

Tisha:
We’re back! *Looks at the screen* Um, how did you find my tapes?

Jenny:
I was kinda bored. So, I found them. Maybe you and Mickey should do this.

Tisha:
What, stand-up? We already got someone in the family that does that. Which is Aunt Nikki.

(Audience laughs)

Dede:
No, I think she means like you should write music because you always say you wanted to do it. You always write those poems.

Mickey:
I’ve never thought I'd say this. But they are right. We’re always writing poems and beats. And We can ask P.L or Janet to help us.

Janet:
Yea, he has a point.

Tisha:
Why not? Hell, we’re already in a band. What do the rest of y’all think?
