All language subtitles for moesha_s02e02_credit_card

A car is an extension of how we see
ourselves and what we hope to become.

A car, any car, is also way flicker than
riding a bus.

So after turning down a Saturn because
it wasn't a Jeep, I came to my senses.

I pulled my mega funds and bought some
basic transportation. Mom, I want to

some music. Can you turn on the radio?

Here, girl. Do it yourself.

Dang.

It may not be pretty, but it gets me
where I want to go.

Moesha. Moesha.

Moesha.

Moesha.

You cannot have another cookie, a glass
of water, or another story.

No, it's me.

I just want y 'all to know y 'all can
stop worrying because I'm home now.

What is it, Mo? Nisa needs a ride home.

Well, then take her.

Daddy.

What? I can't take her because I don't
have my car.

I mean, I ran out of money plus out of
gas. That's why I'm late. Okay, okay.

Take my car. Good night.

Daddy.

Daddy.

Oh, hi, Heidi.

What is it now, Moesha? Please tell my
daddy.

Did I interrupt something?

What is it, Moe? I need my dad to go
with me to Crenshaw because my car is

parked in front of a bus stop.

Well, then have an easy drive. I can't.
He said I can only drive the car. It's

okay, Dee. All right, all right.

I'll be right down, Moe. Thank you,
Daddy.

You sure you want another one of those?

We need to talk about last night, baby.
Hey, what you do behind closed doors is

your business.

It's what happened on Crenshaw Boulevard
last night that we're upset about.

Mo, that is the third time that you have
run out of gas since you got that car.

Actually, it's the fourth. Last week,
she jacked me for a five spot.

You keep talking, you just be a spot.

Mo.

How come you never have money for gas,
baby? Now, I put $50 behind your license

for emergencies.

I wonder what that was for.

Now, don't play with me. Now, you know
that money was for emergencies.

That's what I used it for.

I mean, I thought this party was casual,
casual.

Then Kim called and said it was dressy
casual.

Hence, an emergency.

I think we need to define emergency.

Please do, because the sister is
confused.

Want me to go get the belt of knowledge?

Miles. The point is, is that $50 may
have covered an emergency in 1935 when y

'all were young.

But in 1996, all it covers is a cab ride
home. So what are we going to do?

Miles. I'm way ahead of you, Dad.

It's so... Not gonna happen.

Morning, Flintstones. Hey, man.

How's it going? Could you please tell my
daddy that everybody in school has a

credit card now? Oh, yeah, yeah. Let me
see which one I got on me today.

Let me check it out. See, I got my
library card.

Yeah, got my prepaid Jodeci phone card.

Ooh, got my get -out -of -jail -free
card.

What do you know? No credit card. Must
have left home without it.

Look, ignore Quasidodo over here. What
I'm saying is... No, no. But, Daddy. No.

Wait a minute. Did you know that most
places don't even take cash anymore?

No. That's why I need a credit card. Mm
-hmm. I mean, don't you want the peace

of mind of knowing that your one and
only daughter is protected?

She does have a point. I mean, that car
isn't exactly in mint condition.

Excuse me.

Need I remind you that I already bought
her a brand new car with a functioning

gas gauge and roadside service, and she
turned me down. Daddy, I was young. I

didn't know.

What I'm saying is, I swear on a stack
of Bibles I have changed.

If you would offer me that car right
now, I would take it.

Daddy, please, I need a credit card.
Look, Mo, I... Please, Frank, if not for

her, then do it for us.

All right, all right. I'll get your
credit card.

Thank you, Teddy.

Thank you, Gene.

Yeah, but it's only going to be for
emergencies. Now, you do know what that

means. I sure do. Emergency is a noun.
An unexpected situation that requires

prompt action does not involve the
purchase of clothes.

Remember that. I'm dope pumped.

He must go to the dead, baby. And it's
on me.

Just kidding.

Hit the back, Holmes.

Yeah, come on, Kimmy.

Yeah, I'm cool.

I just walked to the party.

All the way to Beverly Hills. To China
if I have to.

With those brand new sneakers, you'd be
barefoot by the time you hit Figueroa.

And butt naked by the time you hit
Weston.

Scoot over, Kim, and don't try nothing.

Oh, I'm not going to try nothing. I'm
going to try something.

Kim, will you leave that boy alone?

in reverse with me. I just got my nails
done.

How you gonna buy a car with a stick if
you can't even drive it?

Now, what does that have to do with
that, you know?

Stop,

all right?

I'll drive.

My daddy said I can't let nobody drive
my car.

So you do everything your daddy tells
you to do?

Okay, good Twitter.

Kim want to switch places with you.

Oh, we have Beverly Hills, y 'all.

Let's go to the Krampus house.

Kim, could you please act like you've
been here before?

Exactly who am I trying to fool, Mom?

Sam.

Everybody be cool.

Be cool? I can't be the first one in my
family to go to jail. Oh, now who's

fooling who?

Now, JoJo is my place. Well, everybody
just relax, all right? That's right,

Beverly Hills. If you're important, they
ain't gonna message you. Be cool.

Might think I'm too popular.

And they're supposed to keep us out of
jail.

They can call your girl, kid. She's not
my girl.

Be quiet.

Remember,

I'll do the talking.

Your license and registration, please.

Why did you stop us?

Beg your pardon? I mean, don't you have
black people in Beverly Hills?

Oh, yeah, sure we do. They just don't
drive around four deep in a 1979 primer

gray Volkswagen thing with faulty brake
lights. Hey, do you know Axel Fowler?

Shut up.

Your license and registration, please.

Why are you harassing us? I mean,
shouldn't you be arresting Robert Downey

again?

How do you want to do this?

Ronnie King or Martin Luther King?

You know, I was going to let you go
until homegirl here mouthed off.

Mr. Shakur.

Got a jaywalking ticket. That's $27 .50.
Oh, no problem. That's gone to Warren.

It's now $375.

The cross on the street?

It was Rodeo Drive, miss.

All right, all right. We'll just pull
our money together. I think I got $22

some change. How much do you have,
Hakeem? Man, all I got is a stick of gum

a picture of my mama.

So how were you going to put in on the
gas? If I had money, Mo, I would have

rode with Freddy.

You ain't right.

Kim.

Darn. All I have is a five. thousand
dollar bill you think mr drowsdale got

changed what are we gonna do y 'all we
can't just leave that boy here i got my

get out of jail free card that ain't

wait wait did q give you the address to
the party before he got locked up no

Put a warrant.

Put a bell.

Thanks for looking out, kid.

Thank you.

This solves half of my problem. I still
have to explain the bill to my daddy.

There you go again worrying. I told you,
my man Donnie can do anything with a

computer. Except be me an NBA champ.

So what, is he some kind of hacker or
something?

Best there is.

He's almost a boy.

Yeah, yeah, I mean, he hooked me up with
an unlimited caller on my Jodeci phone

call. Whoa, that brings right up there
with hacking the Pentagon.

Hey, hey, hey, Donnie.

You're supposed to fix my computer.
Where you been, boy? Uh, cyberspace.

Well, that stop payment I placed on my
check?

That's virtual reality.

Uh, it was.

I cashed that check two days ago. What?

Look, I'm looking you up this weekend. I
promise, okay?

What up? What's up, man?

Hey,

this is Moesha. She got a little
problem, and I'm just the one to fix it.

that?

There's an item on my desk, Critter.

Here you go.

Why y 'all so quiet?

We just chilling. You know how we do it.

Bye -bye.

Okay, about this credit card thing. I'm
sure I can help you out. But you need a

charge erased off the bill or what? No,
not exactly. See, I'm going to pay the

bill. I just don't want it to show up on
my daddy's statement. Can you do

something like that?

Ask Mariah Carey.

Why? Now, I know you don't think she
sold that many records.

So what, you want to do this or what?

I don't know. Suppose my daddy finds
out. All right, then don't do it.

When he gets the bill, just tell him
that the kid he don't want you hanging

with was driving a car he told you not
to let nobody drive, got pulled over by

police, went to jail, had to bail him
out with a credit card he told you only

use on emergencies. That's all.

Here's my address.

All right, cool. I'll be at your house
tomorrow at 3. I just need a phone line,

a grounded outlet, and last month's
bill.

And you do have a surge protector,
right? A what?

Never mind.

I'll bring mine.

Everything's gonna work out, baby.

Everything's gonna work out.

See? There it is. Frank Mitchell, 888
-388 -4659.

Employed by Limerick Saturn.

Annual salary... Dang, Daddy makes that
much?

He must have another family.

Judging by the car you drive, he could
be front.

Talk about my car.

If you want me to, I can cross
-reference that figure with the IRS

No, thanks. All I want you to do is
remove this charge and that payment.

Done. That's it?

That's it.

Thank you.

Mo, maybe we should just take this up at
another time, all right? Okay. Can I

give you a call?

I'd like that.

Bet you would.

Yeah,

well, uh, if I was Whitney, I'd make him
get his teeth fixed.

Ray cannot talk. You can't even get your
last boyfriend to brush his teeth.

You can't sit down here and make room
for my man.

And take note, he's taught up free.

Lisa, Lisa, move over, move over.

Listen, listen.

Yo, Moe is in a you, me, me situation.

You're lying.

Moe would never do that to Q. Who's the
other guy?

The hacker.

The hacker? Well, according to Miles,
homeboy's doing more mapping than

The nine -year -old Bernie.

Man, yeah. You know what I'm saying? He
said he caught him on the bed, hugged up

together.

And you believe that?

Look,

Danny's there right now, okay? He took
care of Moe's credit card problem a week

ago.

Oh, forget, forget about it. Man, look,
forget nothing.

Your homegirl is scant.

Let her go. No, no, no. Y 'all need to
talk to her before Q finds out. Before Q

finds out what?

Getting better on her.

That ain't all Mo's hair.

Yeah, I mean, she got extensions, you
know, man. But you didn't hear that from

us. So there's more around? What?

You mean around here, around town, or
around the way around? What do you mean?

Oh,

I'm sorry. I'm just trying to help you
get your little love connection.

She won't tell I was looking for her.

Bet. You know, if we see her, we'll tell
her to call you.

Okay.

Do that.

Web surfing is all that. Why don't we go
into one of these chat rooms?

Why don't we go up to your room?

And chat.

Donnie, you know what?

I really appreciate everything you've
done with the credit card thing, but

do you think is going on here?

Just two compatible people seeking a
higher level of self -expression.

You got mad drag, Donnie.

Yeah, too loud.

So? So come in.

Hi, Q.

Baby, what you doing here?

What's up, Donnie? What you doing?

Uh, you know what? We were doing that
computer thing with the... Y 'all,

don't fight up in my house.

Hey, man, why don't you tell your boy to
go back where he came from? Hey, won't

you make me? You know what? I got a
better idea.

Why don't I make y 'all a sheet of
brownies, a hot cup of cocoa, and we can

clear up this obvious... Let him step in
and I'll clear it up myself. You know,

there will be no stepping going on here.

Uh, Dee, why don't you bring my
briefcase out of the car, baby?

Except y 'all can step out of my house.

Y 'all gotta go. My parents are out of
touch.

We could use a little help in the
kitchen.

Great. I don't know what you're saying,
but come on.

Today,

Mo.

Okay, I'm there.

No, no, no, no.

Yes, I understand, but somebody's going
to have to tell me something.

What's wrong with Daddy? Oh, just a
little discrepancy on our credit card

Uh -oh.

Oh, they're trying to make me pay twice
for the same bad meal.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, let's run it down. Uh,
Mo, why don't you give me a pencil,

baby?

Mm -hmm. Oh, yeah, yeah, who knows what
else you might have gotten wrong.

All right, let's go.

Mm -hmm. The suit barn, $99.

Uh -huh.

Radio hut, $2 ,308. Got it.

Beverly Hills Police Department, $375.

Beverly Hills Police Department.

The truth can make some things better
and some things worse.

And I guess understanding that makes you
a politician.

For instance, there are no ugly babies.

Well, of course, Miles exposed that for
the lie it is.

Well, when Kim asked me if I thought
Hakeem would ever love her, I mean, the

truthful answer is obvious.

But it's obviously not the one you get.

Which brings us to the credit card bill
situation.

My dad refused to believe the police
charge was his and threatened to bring

attorney in.

So I decided to tell the truth and
accept my punishment.

The Q and Donnie situation, on the other
hand, demands something more flexible

than the truth.

Whenever I figure out what that is and
get my phone back, I call Q and tell
