? I know my parents loved me ?

? Stand behind me, come what may ?

? Mmm ?

? I know now that I'm ready, yeah ?

? For I finally heard them say ?

? It's a different world ?

? Ooh ?

? Than where you come from ?

? Yes, it is now, yeah ?

? Here's our chance to make it, hey! ?

? And if we focus on our goal ?

? You can dish it! ?

? We can take it, hey ?

? Just remember that you've been told ?

? It's a different world ?

? It's a different world ?

? It's a different world ?

? It's a different world ?

? Yeah, than where you come from ?

? Ooh ?

? Than where you come from! ?

Ever since Daddy put me on a budget, I've been extremely frugal.

- Yeah, right. No, really. I have. You'd be proud.

Hey, not so fast, sticky fingers.

You owe me a nickel. Don't ever try to cheat me again.

See? Frugal.

Did I tell you I was going out with Antonio Harwood on Friday night?

Ooh, second date this week. He's taking your mind off Dwayne.

Dwayne who?

I don't know anybody by the name of Dwayne.

Oh, that myopic muppet.

I'm sick and tired of waiting for him.

Kim, I'm moving on to bigger and better things.

I bet you are.

Hold the onions for me, will you, Mr. Gaines?

I wish I could hang out, baby, but I've got to study before the tryouts.

Tryouts? What tryouts?

The campus all-star challenge.

Oh. Now, you know my school, Avery, is the reigning champion.

That's because I was sick last year

and Hillman was forced to send boys to do a man's job.

- Oh, hmm. - Uh-huh.

Well, this woman will see you at the competition.

I didn't know you're trying out.

I don't have to try out.

I was on last year's winning team.

Oh! What a worthy opponent.

- Hey, Dwayne. - Hey.

I don't think it's wise to fraternize with the opposition.

- You knew Kinu was competing? - I just found out.

As your trainer and best-looking friend,

it's my job to make you aware of the pitfalls that await.

Thanks for looking out for me, Ron.

Besides, I don't want your behavior jeopardizing my share of the cash prize.

Someone say cash prize?

Yes, but this wouldn't interest you.

It's for one of those academic competitions.

What exactly are you trying to say?

Whitey, people like us are better cheerleaders in these situations.

Don't you compare my mind to that cobweb factory between your ears.

At least my cobweb factory

- can balance a checkbook. - Hey!

Besides, the all-star challenge is for intellectual heavyweights.

Geeks and nerds. Dwayne and Kinu.

Hey, hey, hey, careful.

Ronald, I'll have you know that I graduated top of my class

at the Winthrop School for Girls.

I've made dean's list at least twice,

and I am reigning Jeopardy! champion�

at my parent's house.

Leave me speechless.

Where do I sign up for this campus all-star whatchamajigger?

With Colonel Taylor.

But did you know it was an academic whatchamajigger?

Et tu, Kimberly?

Sorry.

I look forward to this opportunity to flex my intellectual muscles.

And I suppose the $1,500 prize is no incentive at all.

- $1,500? - Mmm-hmm.

Well, let the games begin!

You guys could have told me I was about to run into a fence.

And ruin your momentum? No way, dude.

What exactly were you trying to do?

Gather a wreath for her hair.

Thanks for telling me I've got twigs in my hair.

- Who can tell the difference? - Freddie.

Freddie, you could learn something from Zina Garrison here.

Kim, you have a serious serve and volley game.

Thank you. You're not too bad yourself.

Is there anything you can't do well?

Nope.

Hey, Freddie.

What do you think about me and Kim?

You're the most disgustingly aggressive

overly competitive, impatient players I've ever met.

No, no, no, no. I meant me and Kim. Pah!

You mean my cousin and my best friend?

I love this.

You'd be the coolest couple in the world.

That's what I thought. Do you think she'd go out with me?

Oh, Matthew, in a heartbeat.

Now, you just go and you ask her out.

- I will. I will. - Yay!

All right, and next up, we have Dwayne Wayne.

- Thank you, thank you. - Tracey Seawright.

Hi, Tracey.

Lamont Hosek.

And� Well, well, well.

A pleasant surprise. We have Whitley Gilbert.

Whitley?

That's right, don't stand there catching flies.

Just be prepared to take your beating like a man.

If you can.

Ah-ha!

- Let's go. - For ten points.

"What oriental grass did Edison use as filament for his light bulb

until it was replaced by tungsten?"

Carbonized bamboo.

- Correct. - Looking kind of tired.

Next question.

"Born Margarete Gertrude Zelle,"

"she died before a French firing squad,

"refusing a blindfold and blowing a farewell kiss.

Name this dancer and double agent."

Mata Hari, Mata Hari.

Correct.

"Name the three countries that surround Lake Victoria."

Hey, that's not fair.

I did my buzzer first time and it didn't go off.

Dwayne, the three countries that surround Lake Victoria.

Turn this thing on, please.

Uh�

Canada�

Wrong, wrong, wrong.

There. Now it's working.

Those three countries are Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania.

Correct.

Lake Victoria is in Africa. Don't they have Phi Beta Kappa there?

"In 1969�"

Wait, wait a minute.

Whitley, will you wait a minute? I haven't even finished the question yet.

I know everything that happened in '69 'cause that's the year I was born.

Well, happy birthday.

Whitley, why don't you step down.

I think I've heard enough from you today, okay?

Good move, Colonel Taylor, thank you.

Well, I'm glad you think so, Dwayne. Why don't you join her?

- Me? - Yes, you. You.

Come on, down, down.

Are you happy? Now neither of us will make the team.

I'm half happy.

Too evil to live, you know?

Yes, I am in!

Congratulations. Congratulations.

Oh! And look who you're paired with.

No! No! No!

Colonel, how could you team me up with Whitley?

Can't I get another partner?

- No. - No?

Come on now, you and Whitley are perfect partners.

- Now, you complement each other. - No! No, no.

Besides, I wouldn't inflict either one of you on anyone else.

Well, Whitley. You made the all-star team.

Ha-ha-ha! Now you're eating crow, Mr. IQ Analyst.

Yes, and you'll like your partner,

Kinu's boyfriend.

Colonel Taylor, please tell me this isn't true.

Please tell me you're not making me work with him.

Yes. Oh, come on now.

You two are Hillman's best chances of bringing that trophy home.

Look, work with me, people.

Matthew!

What's with the Godfather getup?

I just came from a dress rehearsal.

I wanted to reach before Kim got off work. Do you think I should change?

No, Matthew. Kim doesn't care how you look.

Yeah, you're right.

- I'm going to go in there� - Yup.

�and I'm going to offer her a date she can't refuse.

That's right! You go get them, stud.

Yo! Kimberly Reese.

- Matthew? - What do you say?

Me? You? Dinner? Tonight?

Tonight?

I have a study group. I really can't.

Sorry, I'm running late.

? Ding-ding-ding Ding-ding, ding ?

? Ding-ding-ding, ding-ding, ding ?

Mission accomplished. What time are you going out?

Does a quarter till never sound good?

What? She turned you down?

Like a bedspread.

I'm here to practice. Let's make this short and sweet.

Oh. Somebody looking for me?

Yeah, sweet stuff. Let's get this over with.

Let's get it going.

Here we go for you. A little bit for you.

Ron, would you come on?

Oh! CWA. Contestants with attitude, huh?

Here we go. First question.

"This style of painting was co-founded by Pablo Picasso"

and Georges Braque."

Cubism. Next.

That was correct, however, you failed to buzz in.

- We don't have buzzers. - Oh, yes, we do.

Go, partner.

Go, go, go. Go, partner. Go, go.

Ron, quiz me.

Quiz me again, Ron.

Quiz your damn self.

I'm going to bed.

Care to tuck me in?

Well, it never hurts to ask.

Nighty-night.

Dwayne, we just may win this thing tomorrow.

What do you mean "may"? With your brains and my beauty�

The competition can go picnic with the penguins.

You always laugh at your own sorry jokes, Whitley.

Somebody has to.

You haven't been around to make me laugh at your sorry jokes.

You haven't been easy to be around. You've had an attitude.

- I have not. - You have too.

- I have not. - You have too.

Well, women have to be like that sometimes.

- Uh-huh. - What's your excuse?

I've been nice.

In your own little way. Yes, I suppose.

Well, I always did think you were beautiful.

Really?

Till you took off them shoes and got feet look like Bubbles the chimp.

- Okay. - Okay.

- Okay. - Okay.

At least I can fit all my teeth into my mouth, Chipmunk.

Ooh! No.

Oh, no!

And at 2:00 a.m, you stink.

I am a bit ripe. You like that? You like that?

Stop tickling me! You smell like old socks. I don't like it.

You like old socks�

Maybe we should call it a night.

Good idea.

We both need some rest.

Good idea.

Whitley�

Oh.

Well, good night, Dwayne.

Good night.

Sleep tight.

It was just a kiss and that's all it's going to be.

I saw it coming a mile away.

Where have you been?

Geez, I left my mother in Ohio.

Why did you turn Matthew down?

I had a study group waiting.

Oh, "study group, study group."

I know why you turned him down. I know the reason.

It's because he's� He's white.

Oh, Kim, Kim.

Tell me that's not the reason.

- Good night, Freddie. - Tell me.

- Okay. Yes. It is a factor. - Why?

Why make things more difficult than they have to be?

Besides, I said it was a factor. I didn't say it was the only factor.

What other objection could you possibly have?

He's� He's flaky and skinny.

He's artsy and craftsy.

And he came to The Pit dressed like Super Fly.

We'd be a mixed couple no matter what color he was.

If he ditched the costume, gained weight,

and was more grounded in reality, you'd go out with him?

I'm not looking for a relationship.

Kim, Matthew did not propose, he just asked you out to dinner.

I don't have time to go out to dinner.

Of course, you don't have time to go out to dinner,

because it's not on your five-year plan.

Neither is this conversation.

- You see that? - What?

- See that? That's it. - What? What?

That's what your problem is.

Everything has to go by this little schedule.

You go from bed to class to work to the library.

That's not true, Freddie.

- What did you do Saturday night? - I�

dissected a rat.

Ah, that's living.

I have my life and you have yours.

No, no, correction. I have a life. You don't.

- Hey, Ron, Whitley's late. She's always late.

She's probably picking an outfit.

You don't think she wouldn't show up, do you?

You tell me, homey.

I don't know why I kissed her.

Because she's fine!

I don't need this. I need to stay away from Whitley.

What you need to do is make up your mind.

I'll make it up for you.

You keep Kinu, I'll take Whitley.

Ron- Do you think Kinu will notice?

Notice? Babe, wake up. Women notice everything.

They have super-sensitive noses.

They can detect another woman's scent on you

a mile away, just like that.

It happened hours ago.

It doesn't matter.

You reek of guilt.

How do you know so much?

As often as I've been busted. Trust me, you're caught.

- Hi, honey. - Hey, hi.

Ready for the competition?

Hey� I'm ready.

You know what?

I'm not sure I like this idea of you paired up with Whitley.

Told you.

Wait, wait. What do you mean by that?

I know she likes you.

Wait. If you think Whitley and I got something going, you're wrong.

We flirted around once. That was it. It was a while ago.

All we ever did was kiss, baby.

- Okay? - Why are you telling me all this?

No reason. I'm just trying to clear the air.

See how clear the air is now?

I'll talk to you later. Good luck.

Wait, wait, Kinu.

You said you knew Whitley liked me.

I want to assure you the feeling is not mutual.

I do not want Whitley.

- Are you sure about that? - I am very sure.

Good.

"America is a union of states, Canada of provinces."

What the hell is she thinking?

"What nation is a Union of Cantons?"

- Switzerland. Correct!

"Ronald McNair, Frederick Gregory,"

Charles Bolden, and Dr. Mae Jemison, what?"

They were all astronauts.

Hey, I can't win this thing myself.

You doing just fine. Keep up the good work.

- Hibernation. - Correct!

Whitley, stop hibernating. We're in third place.

Correction. You are in third place.

Do me a favor. Answer one question, please.

All right.

"Symphonic tone poem "La Mer" was composed by�"

Somebody famous.

The French impressionist musician, Claude Debussy.

Correct.

"Name the dreadlocked superstar of reggae."

Robert "Bob" Nesta Marley.

"The ingredient in plastic foams"

and refrigerators."

- Chlorofluorocarbons. - Yes? Yes!

Oh! And that indicates the end of the first round.

Now the two leading teams go to the championships.

The other two teams, you're free to go.

We would give you a home game but we don't have one, so�

Good-bye. Thank you for playing. All right, let's take a break here.

- Hi. - Hi.

You look really good out there.

Oh, you have low standards. I like that.

So, what are you doing later?

I don't know, I might just hang out.

Oh, I thought I'd go to the coffee house.

- Really? - Yeah.

I might be at the coffee house later.

- Really? - Yeah.

Hey, you want to walk there together?

- Sounds like a plan. - Okay.

Hello, you two.

What are we doing?

We decided to go to the coffee house.

Cool. Can I come?

No.

What are you doing?

Having some cocoa. Would you like some?

I want my partner back.

You want your cake and Kinu too, and you can't have it.

That is not what I want.

- Why did you kiss me? - Why did you kiss me?

- I asked you first. - I asked you second.

Look, Whitley, I'm sorry.

It was wrong for me to kiss you last night.

That's right, it was wrong.

But some strong feelings that I had for you

once upon a time resurfaced.

I know what you mean.

I admit, you are my one temptation.

I am?

But Kinu is my girlfriend and I need to respect that.

- Yes, you do. - Thank you.

- But I don't. - Whitley, I'm serious.

So am I.

All right, contestants, take your places.

- Take your places. - Are you in this contest with me or not?

All right, I'm in, but not for you. For the money.

Woah. Well, let's do it.

"Multiply the number of Muses by the number of Furies"

multiply that by the number of Graces."

- Eighty-one. - Correct.

Name this shopper's paradise."

I knew it well.

Yes.

We're gaining on them. We're gaining on them.

"Which two foreign countries have either completed"

or are building their own Disneyland?"

- France and� - And Japan.

- Yes!

That means our game is over and we have a champion.

Avery University.

If I hadn't been such a manicuring maniac, we might have won this thing.

- Ah� - I'm sorry.

Don't worry about it. ONce you going, we were good.

We were a good team, weren't we?

Yes, we were.

? Ta-ta, ta-da ?

Congratulations, sweetie.

Thank you, thank you.

Care to kiss the champion?

Yep.

You make a formidable opponent, Kinu.

Oh. Well, it's just nice to enjoy this moment with friends�

and you too, Whitley.

Ooh. How about those victory pizzas?

Winner buys.

You may get the prize, but I will get the man.
