Are you going to turn that light off anytime this century?

I have to study for my animal physiology exam.

I know, but do you really think

that pictures of cow hearts and goat spleens

are appropriate bedtime reading?

I can't study tomorrow.

I have swim practice and choir practice, not to mention work.

But don't worry, I just have this last chapter on hibernation.

Why don't you do an experiment in hibernation and get some sleep?

If an extra two hours are going to keep me from getting Bs,

it's worth it.

The partition that separates the peritoneal cavity

from the heart cavity is the�

�pleural septum!

No, no, that's tissue in the lung. What is it?

If you don't know what separates the peritoneal cavity from the heart cavity,

I'm a dead man.

Instruments.

- Flute? - It's sterile.

Kim, we have choir practice.

Are you still operating on this man?

- I'll be right there. - Don't bet on it.

She doesn't know what separates the peritoneal cavity from the heart cavity.

I don't want no body parts on my floor.

- And, next time, get a man doctor. - Mm-hmm.

Kim, operate with alacrity.

You have swim practice.

She's not going anywhere until she figures out what separates

the peritoneal cavity from the heart cavity.

Everybody knows that.

- It's the transverse septum. - Thank you!

? Transverse septum ?

? Transverse septum ?

Whitley! You guys!

Whitley!

? Transverse septum, transverse septum ?

What are you doing?

Just spending a little quality time with my roomie.

I had another one of those nightmares.

I was in The Pit�

operating on Dwayne�

in front of the burger window.

Everybody kept singing the answer

to that question I missed on my last exam.

I felt so stupid. Even you knew what is was.

All right, Kim, you're skating on thin ice.

I don't know.

Maybe these dreams are trying to tell me

I don't have what it takes to become a doctor.

Oh, Kim, please.

I had a dream once, I was in Fredrica's Fashion Fair.

They had the shoe sale of the century,

and I was the first one there at the door.

But I could not find the shoe department.

Every escalator went to household appliances.

I took the elevator� household appliances.

I took the stairs� household appliances.

And then, an army of toasters and mix-masters

came marching after me and they all had on fashion shoes!

But�

a dream that was even worse than that

was I was trapped in crepe-sole shoe department

at Zenay's Zapateria.

I'm not finished. And Jos�, my salesman, said�

Velma?

Velma?

Would you take a breath before your tongue falls out?

It's not healthy for a 29-year-old man to be living at home.

I know Darnell is our son. That's why I want him to leave!

Hello?

Hello? Oh, my goodness!

Oh, come on now, Vernon. If I remember correctly,

you're the one who said it was okay for Darnell to come back home.

It's amazing what a man will do to get back into his own bed.

Velma says the child is just trying to find himself.

He found himself, all right�

In my Barcalounger, in front of my TV.

He found himself everywhere but at work.

All kids go through a little period of adjustment.

In five years, Darnell has lost five jobs.

Now you can't make no money that way.

Unless you manage the New York Yankees.

Come on, let me buy you a cup of coffee.

It just pains me to see all that potential going nowhere fast.

And tonight, when I get home, I'm telling Velma

that her little baby boy has got to pack his 29-year-old diapers and get out.

Oh! Where have you been?

Mr. Gaines, I'm five minutes early.

Well, you're usually 15 minutes early.

- This better not start a trend. - No, sir.

I can just see it now�

The girl will start showing up later and later,

flunk out of school, move back home with her father

and take over his Barcalounger.

And where were we when we should have been at choir practice

rehearsing for our solo?

I'm sorry, I was in a bio lab. I forgot all about it.

Mm-hmm. Well, next time you're in the lab,

leave your book and let the frog dissect himself.

I won't have to do that because it will never happen again.

Thanks to this.

"The call-it-a-day planner."

Last semester, I felt I was always running two steps behind my life.

But now I've got my life in the palm of my hand.

Check this out.

Let's see here.

"5:00 a.m., get up.

"5:30, swim practice.

"7:00 a.m., shower.

- 7:10, breakfast." - Mm-hmm.

Uh, Kim, you might want to write in, "7:05, get dressed."

If you go to breakfast naked, the crowd could slow you down.

- You're right. - Yeah.

You're taking six classes

plus the swim team, the choir, freshman council,

working all day long at The Pit and tutoring in anatomy?

Girl, does your life come with ten extra hours I don't know about?

I know it sounds like a lot,

but it won't be if each minute has a purpose.

Yeah, but in not one of these minutes have you scheduled

any of the important things in life,

like, "paint your toenails, sit up all night dishing dirt with girls."

Jaleesa, I have to get more than Bs if I wanna be the first doctor in my family.

I mean, would you go to a doctor who made Bs?

Actually, I'd rather go to a doctor that made Cs.

They charge less.

Give me that.

Fluffy, what's a three-letter word for enemy?

And don't say "dog," either.

I'll get it. I'll get it. Stay right there.

Well!

- Hey, Vernon! - Oh, I'm not staying.

Well, come on in.

Well, I told Darnell his mooching days was over,

and he had one week to find his own place.

Oh, boy. So how did he take it?

A lot better than Velma.

- Uh-oh, so you're back on the couch then? - Heck no, she kicked me out.

Out of my own house,

house that I just paid $375 to have the porch screened in,

because Velma is convinced that them fireflies carry diphtheria.

Oh!

Nice cat.

- Well, do you have a place to stay? - Oh, don't worry about me.

I'll just get me a room in a hotel.

It won't be a good one, though, 'cause I just paid $375 for porch screens.

Well, Vernon, you know you're welcome to stay here.

Oh, I couldn't do that.

Well, Suzanne, she's gone. She's at her friend's.

And there's no one here but me and Fluffy and John Coltrane.

Yeah, well, that's very nice of you. That's very nice.

Well, you just tell us where we're bunking and you won't hear another word out of us.

Well, I don't have a guest room. You'd have to, you know�

Oh, I've slept on so many couches, I wouldn't know what to do in a bed.

Yes, sir. Now this is gonna be real nice.

Real nice. Uh-huh.

Oh.

Now you two are gonna have to get along now.

Yeah, we might be here for quite a while.

Yeah.

Hello!

Well, if smiles could talk.

We had a pop quiz in organic chemistry,

and guess who got an A? A big fat A?

I give up. Who?

You are looking at the crown princess, the queen,

the reigning goddess for organic chem.

I knew so much, I could have answered five more questions.

And why, you may ask?

Because you cheated?

Because of Operation Organization.

Last night, I got all my reading done

and I had ten minutes left over to call my folks.

You might wanna get one of these.

Why on earth would I want to talk to my mother for a whole ten minutes?

Kim, it's almost time for Midnight Chiller Theater.

Guess what is on?

The Man With Two Heads.

Freddie, how many times have I asked you to knock

before entering the room?

Many times.

Just checking.

Come on! The popcorn's getting cold.

Oh, I'm sorry. I have to review my choir music,

lay out my clothes, start my lit paper�

No, I already started that already.

And I need 15 minutes just to start tomorrow's day planner.

Come on, I can't watch The Man With Two Heads by myself.

My motto this semester is "no more Bs."

When I was pulling my hair out over a paper,

you were the one that told me to relax.

Well, you're not going to be a doctor, you're going to be a writer.

No one dies if you put a colon in the wrong place.

Whitley, what do you say? You, me, The Man With Two Heads?

I'd love to, but I don't double-date.

Mom, my life is under control now.

This organizer has really saved me.

Overburdened?

Mom, I'm getting A's in all ten of my classes.

Did I say ten? I meant 15.

Fifteen classes, 15 A's.

No Bs.

A. A.

Who are you? What are you?

Don't you recognize us?

We're the Bs that are gonna keep you out of med school, baby!

Oh, no! It's the killer Bs!

Back, you dirty Bs!

Back!

No!

No!

Get away from me! Get away from me!

Get away!

She's going to make Bs.

No Bs!

No Bs!

No Bs! No Bs!

There's a flyswatter in the top drawer.

Ah!

You know, there's no need in you sitting here in this quiet

when you're surrounded by the best jazz collection on the Eastern Seaboard.

Well, I'm a guest here.

I don't want to mess with your valuable record collection.

What's the matter? Couldn't figure out how to turn on the stereo?

Well, you need a degree from MIT!

Oh!

You might want to check your speakers, 'cause something's wrong with them.

Yeah, I'll do that.

Listen, do you like, uh, chicken?

God's gift to the taste buds.

Good. Because I got us a taste of heaven in a bucket.

- Yeah? - Hell yeah.

Fifteen pieces of chicken, Corny's Cajun Cluckers.

Well, I hope you got a bucket of bicarbonate to go with them.

Oh, come on now, Vernon.

? Cajun Cluckers are delicious ?

You wouldn't think so, if you knew where those chickens come from.

The tender, plump, juicy ones get snagged by the good restaurants.

Corny's Chicken gets the ones that fell off the truck.

Well, let's eat.

Vernon, have you talked with your wife today?

Now how am I gonna talk to somebody I'm not speaking to?

Don't you think you ought to at least let Velma know where you are

in case she's trying to find you to ask you to come back home?

If she wants to beg, she knows how to find me.

Yeah, well, I sure hope so.

You know, this is the first time

Velma and I have been apart since I come back from the war.

She still wears those silk slippers I bought her in Kaesong, Korea.

She looks like a princess in 'em, too.

Well, you know what? Maybe if you go home,

your princess will put them on for you.

Oh, no, I'm not going home until that boy's gone.

How would you feel if somebody showed up at your doorstep,

moved in, and started acting like they owned the place?

Mm-hmm.

- I wouldn't sit there for a while. - Why not?

Well, your Fluffy wouldn't let my Chelsea Boots use his litter box.

- It will be dry by tomorrow. - Oh! Man!

I told you those speakers wasn't right.

I'm moving out of the dorm.

I'll forward your mail.

Don't you want to know why?

No.

Because if I don't, there will be one less pre-med student

in the class of '92.

Is Kim having a problem?

Kim is the problem. Look at me.

I haven't had one decent night's sleep in two weeks.

These aren't bags under my eyes, they're steamer trunks.

Then you have all the luggage you need in order to move out.

Every night, Kim is tossing and turning,

screaming in the middle of her sleep.

She wakes up in a cold sweat.

It's wearing me out.

Well, what's wrong with her?

Some nonsense about not getting into medical school.

I should have asked to room with a phys ed major.

They sleep like logs.

Whitley, the girl has put herself under a lot of pressure.

I went through the same thing when I was a freshman.

Don't worry. She'll get through it.

At what cost to me?

Kim, we were just talking about you. Don't you look rested.

Four hours is just too much sleep.

See what I mean?

Would you rent me a U-Haul, please?

I went to bed at 2:00 a.m. and slept all the way to 6:00.

If I had read that chapter one more time, I wouldn't have screwed up my quiz.

Kim, Kim, come on now, ease up on yourself.

There comes a time when everybody gets a C or a D.

D? I got a B.

Ooh, I wouldn't let that news get around.

That's it.

I'm going to have to learn to make it on three hours' sleep.

Kim, instead of less sleep,

why not drop one or two of your activities?

The choir, that takes up a lot of your time.

Are you saying that I can't cut it here?

No, Kim, all I'm saying is that maybe you shouldn't be taking on so much.

Jaleesa, why don't you spend more of your time worrying about yourself?

Today, at choir, you were flat.

Excuse me, I have to go rent a U-Haul.

That was one of her best topics ever.

Don't you think so, Lettie?

Yes, Velma.

And as usual, she's right.

Men don't know the first thing about love.

I hope Vernon was watching.

Although, it probably would have gone right over his puny, little head.

Velma, I really think it's time you talked to Vernon.

I said everything I needed to say, when I said "get out."

But it's possible that, in the last few days,

he has softened his position about Darnell.

You haven't been married for a long time, have you?

Even wolves don't abandon their own flesh and blood.

They'll chew off a foot before they'll throw their babies out of the house.

I still say call him.

There was a time I would have called Vernon.

See, I used to be one of those dependent women

who lived to please her man.

In fact, do you read Mature Woman Magazine?

- No. - You should.

They just had a fantastic article on this very subject.

What was it called?

- Velma- - "Getting Out From Under His Shadow."

It said we women have to stop putting our man's needs ahead of our own.

I should get Vernon a copy.

Although, he'd probably just use it to beat the cat.

Velma, stop!

You've, uh, pruned that azalea enough.

Oh, no.

You've got to prune an azalea if you want the blooms to be full.

Do you read Modern Gardening Magazine?

- No. - You should.

They have the most helpful articles on plant life.

You should see my back porch.

Yes, it must be paradise.

It is. Now that I have it all screened in.

Oh, I don't know what happened. I turned that little key just a hair,

all of a sudden, I'm on Mount Vesuvius.

Vernon, you set the up gas too high!

This never would've have happened if you got rid of that screen

and put in some glass doors. They keep the heat in and the fire out.

- Vernon? - Yes.

Why don't you go�

and set the table for dinner.

Well, I'm here to help.

Lettie� Velma! Velma, come on in.

Thank you, Bradford.

Ooh, Lettie is right, Colonel.

You do have a lovely place.

Smokey, but lovely.

Velma and I were talking about decorating,

and I mentioned how charming your home was,

and that you had some very interesting pieces.

What was that?

That sounds like my grandmother's china.

You wouldn't think that a man lived here.

Do you read House And Garden Magazine?

No.

You should.

I assume these are all antiques.

Oh, I owe you a plate.

Oh, my goodness.

I know that's an antique.

I didn't break the plate. It shattered when it heard her voice.

- You knew he was here, didn't you? - Yes, I did.

And as someone who cares very much about you both,

I think it's time you stopped acting like children and work this out.

- Lettie, do they have to do it here? - Bradford.

Now, you have a bond, a common ground, a history.

And more than anything, you have love.

Are you really willing to destroy all that because of

what boils down to a simple disagreement?

Go ahead, take her side! See, they always do!

Vernon, she's not taking her side.

Vernon, she's right.

We do have all those things.

I know we do.

I miss you.

I know that.

Well, I miss you, too.

Let's both stop being stubborn.

Come home.

Am I coming home to you, or to that moocher?

Can't we give Darnell just a little more time to get himself settled?

Well, he's been settled in my Barcalounger for six months.

No, I'm staying tight here until that boy is gone.

- No, you're not. - Excuse me?

No, you're not. I'm sorry.

I just don't have enough insurance for you to stay here.

Oh, I'll just get my things.

The man practically begs me to stay in his house,

and then puts me out like a two-day old newspaper.

Get down from there, Chelsea Boots, we've been evicted.

Okay, everybody, stand back. Give the girl some room to breathe.

- What are you doing? - Elevating her head.

Stupid, you're supposed to elevate the feet.

I never miss Nightingales, okay? It's the head.

- It's the feet. - You don't know what you-

Kim, you're alive!

My goodness, what are you doing down there?

- She fainted. - That's terrible.

This floor is filthy!

People, please, stop gaping. She is not a possum on the highway.

This was bound to happen.

I kept trying to tell her to slow down.

I tried my best, but she just wouldn't listen.

Whitley?

- Yes, Kim? - Shut up.

The girl's delirious.

When you were making your medical bon mots,

did it occur to you to call 911 or Student Health?

I called the Red Cross,

and they're sending an emergency chopper with supplies.

Why don't you go up on the roof and see if it's here?

I'm not leaving her side in these minutes of need.

- Will somebody help me up? I have work! - Kim!

- Aha! - What are you doing?

Now, see. Now, does this tell you anything at all?

Maybe I need a longer break.

Kim, passing out is your body's way of saying, "Chill!"

I hear it.

And it's telling me to drop a few of my activities.

Mm-hmm.

If I don't, the only way I'll make it into med school is on a stretcher.

These chairs are supposed to be on top of the table, not under your behind.

Mr. Gaines, Kim is not feeling very well.

The poor child passed out.

Fortunately, I have been here with the medical expertise.

Oh, my goodness, and Velma home, waiting, wearing her Kaesong slippers,

I'll be here all night spraying for germs.

Mr. Gaines, it's not that bad. I'll be in tomorrow.

Oh, no, you don't.

Get her to Student Health and get her a doctor.

- A man doctor. - Tell it like it is. Yeah.
