there is no other.

No, it's once you go black,

you don't go back.

It's the honky patroI.

Let me do this.

Ah, look who got

the gun now.

- Yeah. What's up?!

- Hi.

- Shut up!

- What?

I said shut up, whitey!

I got the power.

Keep working.

This is a girl thing.

- Breakdance.

- Break, what?

I said, breakdance.

Come on.

Take it!

That's right.

That's good.

Come on.

Kid 'n Play.

- Kid and who?

- Come on.

That's right.

Getting funky.

Oh, yeah.

I like black people.

Oh, fight.

Watch yourself.

Show 'em what you're working with.

Oh!

White She-Devil,

represent!

Oh!

- Sistah Girl:
Yeah.

- I got him.

I got him!

Vector four, section seven.

Come on, General,

you got to give me that gun.

Nonsense!

General, kill him!

Undercover Brother,

are you okay?

Everything's cool

now that you're here.

Y'all gonna make me lose

my mind up in here!

See what I've been

dealing with?

Yeah.

Situation complete.

We'll see you soon, Chief.

Atomic core, eh?

Let's see what this so-called

button does.

Computer voice:
Attention,

atomic core set to overload.

My bad.

Here, General,

take the antidote.

Oh, what happened to me?

Damn!

You guys get the General out of

here. I'm going after The Man.

Let's get while

the getting's good.

There'll be another day

to fight The Man.

We can't give The Man

another damn day!

But Sistah Girl's right.

We got to get the hell out of here, man.

We're gonna die!

We're all gonna die!

- Dig it! Dig it hard!

- Daddy!

There's times for falling apart,

and there's times for getting funky.

This is one

of those funky times!

So, what's it going to be?!

Are you ready to play

some funky music, white boy?

Solid.

Lay down the boogie.

It's time to take it

to The Man.

I guess this means you

and I are like brothers now, huh?

I feel black.

Man, you look white!

Ow.

Don't touch me!

Come on, General.

Let's go.

Let's go!

Let's get out of here!

- Come on!

- Go. Come on, nigga.

Computer voice:

Atomic core overload in five minutes.

Please exit

in an orderly fashion.

Stop him!

Earth, wind and fire!

Shaquille O'Neal!

- Sisqo!

- No-ooo!

I just bought those.

Sorry about that.

It's all over, man!

You want some drama?

Then bring it.

Lance, protect the General

at all costs.

Atomic core overload

in three minutes.

Let me talk to them.

I'm white.

We don't want

any trouble.

What are you going

to do about it?

Sissy.

I am not

a sissy!

Come on!

Oh.

Ugh!

Lance.

He shouldn't

have called me a sissy.

Conspiracy Brother:

Not bad, whitey.

But if it was me, I would have ripped

his spine out of his ass!

Let's go! We got less than a minute

before this place blows!

## "They told him don't you ever"

- General, sir, are you all right?

- Yes.

There he is!

Undercover Brother!

He's only got

a few seconds!

Oops.

You mess with the 'fro,

you got to go.

I believe

this belongs to me.

So long,

Undercover Brother.

He's failed me.

Leave him.

Hey! Don't be dissing me!

Hey! Let me in!

Let me up!

That Feather

went out like a sucka.

Punk ass b*tch

played himself.

Let's bounce, dawg.

No! He doesn't have

his parachute!

Yeah.

Smart Brother:

Come on over here. Hug me.

## "What you knowin'" ##

## "To be real" ##

## "What you thinkin'" ##

## "I think I love you, baby... " ##

Undercover Brother,

you the baddest.

Didn't I blow

your mind this time?

Didn't I?

Didn't you cause about a

bazillion dollars worth of damage?

And I sure as hell ain't

covering for you!

I don't give a damn

how sexy you look

floating down

in your little pants!

And as for the rest

of you...

I just want to say

how very proud I am

of all of you.

Undercover Brother,

the world is safe once again

thanks to you.

No thanks to me, Chief.

I couldn't have done it

without Sistah GirI.

You know what they say,

"Behind every great

black man-"

Is the police.

- "Uh, no, no. "

- A bunch of slow white athletes?

- "No. "

- A cute butt?

- Probable cause?

- "No!"

A strong black woman.

- "Strong black woman. "

- That's right.

Oh, yeah.

Mm-hmm.

It would've been cool

to have a Latino,

a Native American,

Asian,

even a Jewish guy

in the mix.

The point is,

by working together as one,

we got the job done.

No doubt, that's what

the Brotherhood is all about.

Solid.

Oh!

Look out, y'all,

fallin' rocks!

Shotgun!

Narrator:

Having stopped Operation Whitewash,

the Brotherhood distributed

an antidote to the mind control drug

to black people nationwide.

And though The Man escaped,

the Brotherhood had found their hero.

Thanks to Undercover Brother,

the world was once again

a funky place.
