? Than where you come from ?

Hey, Vernon.

I know you got a good reason for wearing that hat.

You bet I do.

Protection from these Homecoming roughhousers.

You know, last year, I was standing right here

when I was clobbered by a corncob.

I told you to serve creamed corn.

Yeah, well, I hate Homecoming.

Come on now, Vernon.

Don't be a killjoy.

I think it's real inspiring

all these people coming back to see good friends, and good professors.

- Mm-hmm. - Oh, yeah.

Lot of 'em come back to thank me for whipping them into shape.

Yeah.

Their gratitude makes it worthwhile.

You wouldn't be so grateful if you got hit by a corncob.

What time we gonna hit the road for DC?

Six o'clock.

Your parents don't mind?

Mom was cool until I mentioned "Freaknic".

You should have said it was an outdoor concert.

I did. That made it worse.

She was at Woodstock.

Mellowed out when I said your dad was a cop

and he said you could go.

Your dad did say it was okay for you to go?

He didn't say it wasn't.

What did he say?

Nothing.

I didn't ask.

Why not?

Because I knew what he'd say and how loud he'd say it.

Maybe we should stay here. It is Homecoming.

Homecoming is the same faces as last year, only a year older.

That's true.

Come on.

Freaknic is going to be live.

Bobby Brown, Heavy D.

Two days of nonstop music, food�

- men. - Men.

- Excuse me, Colonel Taylor? - Yes?

I was in your calculus class six years ago.

Yes, I remember the face.

You always called on me.

You never let me give up, even if I started to cry.

I'll never forget the experience.

Thank you.

Because of you, I dropped out for two years.

You nearly ruined my life.

I can't even date men who wear uniforms.

Well, I guess you need this more than I do.

Kim, the Art Society float is a shoo-in for first prize.

It's more than just a float.

It's a floatacular!

And all I'm asking you to do is drive the darn thing.

I told you I am going to the Freaknic this weekend.

- You ready? - Very.

Okay, Kim, if you don't drive my float, then I'll have to drive it.

There will be no Venus de Milo waving at the crowd.

Venus doesn't have any arms.

That's what's so special about it.

Bye, Venus.

Here's the number where we'll probably be staying.

Probably be staying?

- Where's your sense of adventure? - We might not have a place to sleep?

Freddie, if we have time to sleep, we're doing something wrong.

So this is how you show your appreciation

after all the things that I've done for you.

Hello?

We're set.

Just a minute.

Kim.

Shoot.

Hello?

Dad.

Good.

Fine.

My plans for this weekend?

It's Homecoming here�

but Freddie and I are going to Washington.

Students from all over are going.

But I already bought my ticket for the Freaknic.

Why not?

Nothing's gonna happen.

All right.

All right, I won't go.

I hear you. I won't go.

Love you, too.

Bye.

Let's go.

- Didn't your dad say you couldn't? - He did.

Maybe we shouldn't go.

We should. Whitley will cover for me.

Whitley will do no such thing.

Whitley is always covering for you.

"Kim's in the lab."

Your parents probably think

you're having an affair with a laboratory rat.

They'll be thrilled.

He's in medicine.

Baby, you have the kind of face

I could wake up to in the morning

and your eggs will be cooked just the way you like them.

Ah!

I like mine scrambled.

Leave me alone. I'm preparing for Homecoming.

Talking like that, prepare to get beat up.

Trust me.

Football players won't be the only ones scoring this weekend.

Your attitudes about women

haven't changed since junior high.

Because I've known everything about women

since the eighth grade.

That is all you need for the women you bring over here.

And pray tell, what is that supposed to mean?

- Let me put it like this. - Yes?

Any woman I meet tonight will have the ability

to complete a sentence.

Well, all I can say is talk is cheap.

And so are your women.

Ooh.

Some of my women have been very nice to us.

Sherry even cooked for you.

Therein lies the crux of your problem.

A woman warms up your socks and a few leftovers,

you're in love.

If she can do all that, why shouldn't I love her?

A relationship should take longer to develop

than a Polaroid.

You have to talk to women, learn to appreciate and respect them.

While I'm out cuddling women,

you'll be respecting and appreciating this vacuum.

You won't be alone.

You'll apply your usual standard.

Go ugly early.

When have you ever seen me with an ugly woman?

Recently.

Only because you stopped bringing the ugly ones home.

Excuse me.

I know. Wait a minute.

Don't tell me where I've seen you before.

The cover of Black Enterprise.

No.

The June issue of Ebony Man?

Thank you, but wrong again.

Mr. Reese.

Kim's father?

Ah-ho.

Then I have seen you before on our bedroom wall.

You must be Whitley.

I must be.

Yes, Kimmie told me quite a bit about you this summer.

We hoped you'd pay us a visit.

Oh, well. I don't do that much domestic traveling.

I mean, traveling.

What brings� what brings you to Hillman?

I had a law enforcement conference

over in Richmond, so I decided I would surprise Kimmie.

Well�

I guarantee you, she'll be surprised

'cause I'm not even Kim, and I'm surprised.

Could you go up and tell her to come down?

'Course I could.

Just don't tell her why.

No. Can't ruin a surprise.

Yes, Kim Reese, please.

No, that's Kim, not Tim.

Well, where is she?

There certainly is a message.

You tell her to bring her Freaknic fanny home

or it's fried.

I'm sorry. I could have sworn she was upstairs.

She must have left early for the game.

Hyper little thing.

That's my Kimmie.

I remember the day of her first Cleveland Browns football game.

6:00 in the morning

that little five-year-old sat at the foot of the bed

all bundled up, saying, "Daddy! Daddy!"

"We're going to miss the kickoff."

So are we.

I'd love to chat with you

but I'm starring in the Art Society halftime floatacular.

I'm Venus de Milo.

Interesting concept.

And I wouldn't want you to miss it.

I have this extra ticket for the game.

Why don't you use it?

I'm sure you'll see Kim there.

Thank you very much

Look forward to seeing you on that float.

I'll be the one going�

But of course, yes.

Discount victory burgers!

Get 'em while they're hot, while they're cheap.

Hi there.

I'd like to invite you to an open house.

Mine.

Ooh.

Hi there.

I'd like to�

invite me to an open house?

You talked to me already.

Nice to see you again.

What's so funny?

Uh� This whole Homecoming scene.

Like a feeding frenzy. Everybody's on the make.

There's even some dork in a hat

who keeps dangling his apartment keys in my face.

It's little dorks like that

who make us all seem like insensitive jerks.

You don't all seem so insensitive.

Thank you.

My name is Dwayne Wayne.

Hi. Melissa Swazey.

Melissa.

Hello.

Where the hell are you?

You should have been here driving that float.

The boy I had ran right into the goalpost.

And where's your Hillman sweatshirt?

No.

I'm trying to create a diversion for your father.

Yes, your daddy.

Remember him?

I've been tap dancing for the man since 11:00 a.m.

That's right.

So you better skedaddle on back here.

Put your pedal to the metal

and don't even think about that brake.

Whitley.

Hello, Detective Reese.

I'll bet Kim was happy to see you.

Just like old times.

Father, daughter.

The old gridiron.

Actually, I didn't find her.

I was hoping she'd be here.

No, sorry.

But she has been here

because she wore this to the game.

Look, a note.

"Congratulations on your extremely innovative float."

"You made a lovely Venus de Milo."

"Your adoring roomie, Kimberly."

Isn't that sweet?

That's sweet.

I'll be happy to escort you through the entire campus.

If that's what it takes to find her.

No, that won't be necessary.

I insist.

We can start with the sculpture garden.

You'll be impressed with the statuary.

Do you think we'll find Kim there?

It's a very popular gathering spot after a football game.

Whitley.

You might want to change.

Wouldn't want a bird to mistake you for a statue.

Ooh, Dwayne, you are such a good dancer.

You're not bad for a chemical engineering major.

What does that mean?

Let me just say, if Hillman had engineers looked like you,

I'd never be late for class.

Maybe I should transfer.

Now, I know this is hard to believe

but I actually worked here for a while.

In fact, I brought in this suggestione box.

It was my suggestione.

Get it?

It's Italian.

But you probably knew that.

No, but I'm catching on fast.

Yes, well�

There's one of Kimmie's little friends.

Hey, Whitley.

Sorry you fell off of that float.

Where's my daughter?

I think that's her going to the restroom.

Kimmie?

Yoo-hoo?

Whitley, she's not on this campus.

She's in Washington D.C., isn't she?

I do have the right to remain silent.

Now is not the time to exercise that right.

I begged Kimberly not to go to Washington.

I really did.

Those are the real culprits.

If these two people had been doing their jobs,

I wouldn't have been forced to elasticize the truth.

Clinton Reese.

Kim's father.

I'm Walter Oakes, the resident director

and this is Jaleesa Vinson, the resident assistant.

It's nice to meet you.

Is there a problem?

Yes, I've been running up blind alleys all day long,

chasing after my daughter, thanks to this young lady.

I think Kim went to a concert in Washington.

After I told her not to go.

Excuse me, sir, with all due respect, Kim is very responsible.

Dad, what a surprise.

And where have you been?

Walter, I think they need to talk.

We'd better get ready for the alumni reception.

It is getting late and they're not getting younger.

I was working at The Pit.

So The Pit has a franchise in Washington.

Got a little grass in my teeth from that float accident.

Sir, it's all my fault.

I'm Freddie Brooks.

And I forced Kim to take me to Washington.

I'd never seen the Washington monument�

Not now, Freddie.

It's nice to meet you.

I'll be in our room�

if you need me.

Dad, I'm sorry.

I'm sure you are now you've been caught.

I didn't mean to disobey you.

I know.

On your way to the stadium you made a wrong turn

and the next thing you knew you were boogying with Barbara Bush.

I already had plans. People were counting on me.

And I'd never know. I'm in Ohio.

If you'd told me you were coming,

- this wouldn't have happened. - I told you not to go.

No. You lied to me and you ran off

when you had a perfectly good Homecoming right here on campus.

I went to Homecoming here last year.

Keep this up and you'll go to Homecoming at Ohio State.

Dad, I don't want to break the rules

but it's hard not to with so many of them

and they haven't changed since I was 12.

And they're certainly not gonna change now.

I'm 19-years-old.

So you know everything.

Let me tell you something, lady.

There's a world out there that you know nothing about.

I see more in a day-

I know a lot more than you think I do.

Since you left home, I don't recognize you anymore.

Used to do what you were told.

Dad, nothing is going to happen to me.

You're damn right. 'Cause I'm not going to let it.

Now you go upstairs and get ready.

We are going out to dinner� now!

Yes, Dad.

Were you serious when you said

you wanted to grow up to be Spiderman?

Baby, would I lie to you about something like that?

Then I'll let you in on a little secret of mine.

Yeah.

I've always had

this hidden desire to kiss Spiderman.

Then live the dream.

Nikki, this is Dwayne and�

- Melissa. - Melissa.

Hi.

Have a seat, Nikki.

Yeah.

Ooh.

Ron, it's a little stuffy in here, don't you think?

Yeah, go open a window.

No, I think it would be better

if I stepped out onto the terrace for some fresh air.

Would you join me?

Y'all excuse us?

I won't be a minute.

You got to take that broad someplace else.

All you're going to do is talk.

- Who said that? - You did.

I said I would talk first.

Need I remind you, my John Hancock is on the lease, not yours.

I knew it would come to this.

Besides, my baby's finer than yours.

How can you tell?

So much makeup, I'm surprised

she can hold her head up without a neck brace.

How does your lady hold her head up

with that four-ton weave on her head?

No. No, no, no. It's not a weave.

- I already checked, okay? - Yeah.

We'll have to settle this like adults.

- Fine. - Flip a coin.

- Good. - Call it.

Tails.

I'm a gracious winner.

You got five minutes to get out.

Hey, Melissa?

Dang!

Oh, man. I get first dibs on a cold shower.

Bump that. I worked harder to get Mikki here.

- I thought her name was Nikki. - Whatever.

You missed a Homecoming party

that was completely out of control.

Ron Johnson hit on me three times

and didn't even realize who I was.

Guess dinner with dad didn't go all that great?

Dad had a great meal.

Roast tail of Kim.

I did sense he was a little peeved.

A little?

I'm not going to Freddie's for Thanksgiving. I'm going home.

At Christmas, I can forget the winter carnival

because I'm going home.

When I get home, I won't be able to leave.

The operative word is "home."

Don't you think you're exaggerating just a little bit?

You don't know my dad.

I'm always going to be his little girl.

My brothers can go to Peru

as long as they put gas in the car.

I can't even go to the corner.

You're not missing much.

What?

Peru, there's nothing there but stinky llamas

and straw hats.

He's never going to let me grow up.

Daddies are protective of their little girls.

I'm not a little girl!

But I'm careful.

I'm responsible.

Excuse me.

There was last year's brush with Se�or Stork.

Thank God he doesn't know about that.

Well�

Whose side are you on, anyway?

- Yours. - Thank you.

And his.

You don't know what it's like.

No, I don't.

To get my parents attention, I had to set my nanny on fire.

You're kidding.

Don't believe me then.

You know, Kim,

that man still remembers

taking you to your first football game

when you were five years old.

I spent the entire game on his shoulders.

It was windy up there.

- Your daddy just wants� - I don't want to talk about it anymore.

Fine.

You know, Kim,

you would have loved growing up in my household.

My parents were always traveling

and they gave me all the freedom I ever wanted

and tons of hotel soap.

Hotel soap?

And restaurant matches.

Which came in handy when it came to my nanny.

You really set your nanny on fire?

No.

Just her clothes.

While she was still in them.
