I've been having this recurring dream where I'm floating away from my friends.

I'm just out there dangling in the middle of the universe.

It could be that I'm just suffering from premature separation anxiety.

After all, college is just around the corner.

Wow, that's kind of scary.

I mean, just think.

In less than a year's time, I'll be saying goodbye to my three best friends.

That's not a recurring dream.

It's a nightmare.

But why am I smiling?

Love in the morning, new day is morning, it's me, it's me.

Not realizing my reason to kill a seed, it's me.

My best friend's always on my mind.

You're gonna be down, come on.

Gotta do what I gotta do.

Well, son, sometimes adults need time to themselves.

Oh, I see.

So, how'd you mess up this time?

I'm ready now.

Uh, Dee, we're leaving.

Enjoy your bubble bath, baby.

Yeah, yeah, just go.

Ooh, sounds like she's gonna need some time. I hope this is a double feature.

not doing that dress -alike situation.

Girl, that went out with New Edition.

But it's Pink the Town Pink Candy Night.

Sorry, not doing it. Well, hurry up because Niecy is waiting.

Okay.

Santa Cruz State?

But I thought you already applied to your top five.

I did, but Santa Cruz is a good liberal arts college.

Ooh, they have a pretty campus.

think you would want to go to a four -year college.

Who gave you that idea?

Girl, you're grade point average.

That's not the only thing they go by, Mo.

Oh, come on, Kim. It's no biggie.

Everybody's not meant to go to college.

Oh, so now you're my counselor?

What you gonna tell me next? I should work with my hands?

I'm just trying to sell you that $50 application fee. That's all. Come on,

Let's bounce.

You know what?

I'm sick and tired of you.

Excuse me? I mean, you think you're so much better than everybody else just

because you got a couple of A's on your little report card.

A couple A's? Oh, I can't count either?

Kim, what is your problem?

You. Me?

For the past 13 years, I've had to put up with your superior attitude.

Well, I'm tired of being Robin to your Batman.

When did we get on ComExtra?

Real literature.

That explains so much.

And another thing, you're not too good to wear pink.

Newsflash, Momo, you're not all that.

Oh, and you are?

Hey, hey, Kim, yo, the pink thing wasn't mandatory. I mean, we'll just make us

sit in the back.

Wait a minute, you can't even do me no favors by being my friend. Why don't you

do me a favor and get out of my house? Fine.

because you didn't prepare for your future.

Um, well, you know, maybe we'll try this little outing again tomorrow.

And you can wear whatever you want.

What are you doing here? I thought you were going out with your friends.

They had a fight.

Miles, my business, they're out of it.

What happened?

Well, she, Mo thinks she's better than everybody else.

And Kim, she's sick of her. Personally, I understand.

Hey. What's up?

So you finally showed up, huh?

Why, what'd I do?

You were late, Hakeem. That's not like you. We were starting to worry.

Oh, okay.

You were worried about me being late, huh?

Thanks.

Sit down and eat, Hakeem. Why?

Because we're having dinner. Isn't that why you came over here?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And that's the only reason why I ever come over here.

Well, come on, then. Have yourself some chicken. Hey, you know, Dee has some

really delicious breath here.

No.

I'm a thigh man. I'm in the league. You know what?

I don't even eat chicken.

No chicken.

Hello. I want to talk to her.

No. I'm only here to meet Nisi.

You and Kim remind me of the time me and my best friend Lori and I... Fell out

over $5.

You know this one? Yes, and Dylan, it's really not a good one to tell. Y 'all

never made up.

You know, you're right. That half of steel owed me $5.

So you changed your mind about studying?

Dang, ma 'am, I'm just over here saying hi to the girls.

Go on, Niecy. Get your study on. You don't want to end up like me, haven't

heard? There's no higher education in my future.

Well, at least your comprehension skills are intact.

Look, I don't know what went on in that room yesterday, but you two need to make

up because...

She needs to apologize to me. No, you need to apologize to me, and don't talk

about me like I'm not here.

You not here.

And you know what?

As far as I'm concerned, Kim, we never have to speak again. Can't we start now?

I already started.

Anybody see our Kim?

No, but we better hurry up and eat, just in case.

Moesha Mitchell? Yes.

Hi, Melanie Trotman, MTV.

Oh, my God, MTV.

Oh, what's going on? Oh, my God, Daddy, MTV, MTV.

So, are you ready to do this? Yes. Yes. All right. Do it.

Wait, you did get my message.

Miles.

What? She didn't say she was from MTV.

She said music television.

Ain't no time for semantics.

Look, I produced the show Fanatic.

Are you ready to take your best friend, Kimberly Parker, to meet Leanne Rimes?

Oh, my God.

You chose my letter? I submitted that months ago.

Yeah, yeah. Honey, we really gotta go.

Not so fast. This is a school day. Excuse me. This is television.

It's okay if she just misses one day, baby. It's fanatic. It's MTV.

I love the show. I watch it all the time.

That's great.

All right, Moesha.

I realize that it's early, okay? I'm going to need you to just muster up some

hurrah. I want you to look into that camera, take us out to the limo, and

us how tickled pink your friend Kim is going to be to meet Leanne Rimes, okay?

I'm sorry, I can't.

We're not best friends anymore.

That's fine, honey. I just need you to be enthusiastic.

Moesha, honey, just think about why you wrote the letter.

Whatever motivated you to do that for Kim is what you're going to need to get

the two of you beyond this.

Oh, wow.

That was beautiful.

Did you guys get that?

Moesha, do I have a show?

Yeah. Yes, all right.

There's your camera. And in five...

You're on.

Oh, my God. My best friend, Kim, is going to meet Sam Ryan. Oh, my God.

going to be so excited. She's going to die. Oh, my God. She loves Sam. Oh, my

God. I don't know what else to say, honey. That's all you want?

Fine. That's all I need. Let's go find Kim.

Here we go.

To Kim for being accepted to the Fashion Institute of Leimert.

Oh, so proud of you, girl.

Congratulations.

Ooh, yay, me!

Good girl.

Kim,

oh, my God. You're gonna meet your favorite singer, Leigh -Anne Rimes.

The country singer?

No,

these are the people from Fanatic. Are you really from Fanatic?

Uh, how do I look?

I'll wear the bag she's supposed to pack for me. I can't wear this.

I didn't agree, Mom, because you're gonna meet her now at her video shoot.

But you would want me to look...

Look, ladies, I ran out of my Prozac two days ago.

And I have 22 episodes to produce in 23 days, and it is day 10.

like you like each other, you will get...

Mr. Mitch, I've betrayed you.

No, you haven't.

How can you say that after what we shared?

We didn't share anything.

Nothing happened.

Oh, well, maybe not to you.

Wait a minute, wait a minute. What's going on?

Honey, the other day when you guys went to the movies...

I came downstairs to get a glass of champagne. I was in my bath towel

didn't think that anybody was here. Yeah, she didn't know.

Well, now I didn't know.

No one knew.

Anyway, I came down here and Hakeem came through the back door and started...

But I didn't mean to do it, though.

And he saw me.

Naked. It's not that funny. Okay, all right, G.

Look, Hakeem, I'm sure the whole thing was an accident. Yeah, it was. It

really was. Yeah, just don't let that happen again.

and am I sure glad I got that off her breast. I mean, chest. I mean... Well,

know, my... Oh, man.

Sorry. Bye.

Leanna, is it you?

Yes, it's me.

This is Kim Parker.

Hi, Kim. How are you? I love all your songs.

especially three, four, and five, and number nine on the blue CD.

What do you think of my latest CD? I think you need to sign it for me.

To your number one fan, Kimberly Parker.

But I hear you're a closet fan. What's up with that?

We'll see if the geographic situation.

Where I come from, I'm only expected to listen to R &B, rap, and not country.

Well, thank you for giving me a try, but... If you kept me such a secret for

long, how did your friend...

Moesha know to write the fanatic letter for you. I don't know.

She must know you pretty well. Where is she?

She's over there.

This is why I did this show.

Because it's not about the celebrities. It's about the friendship, you know?

And when I read Moesha's letter, I was really touched by it.

Hey, Moesha, you want to come over and read the letter for us?

Get over there. Oh, I will hurt you.

Dear Fanatic, I hope you will introduce my best friend Kimberly Parker to her

favorite singer Leigh -Anne Rimes.

She doesn't know that I know she's Leigh -Anne Rimes' biggest fan.

And she also doesn't know that I'm her biggest fan.

She's been there for me ever since preschool.

We made our first mud pies.

In fact...

She was the one who told me you were not supposed to eat them.

She always knows how to make me laugh, even when I want to cry.

She tells me the truth, even if I don't want to hear it.

She's always getting me out of trouble, even though she's the one who usually

gets me in it.

That's what friends are for.

Anyway, I love her, and I really hope you'll grant this wish.

Because I want to be as good a friend to her as she is to me.

Well, you are a good friend, and I love you.

And I'm sorry for everything that I've been. No, I'm sorry.

Well, I am. All right, guys, share the blame.

Hey, leave them alone. Can't you see they're healing here? Yeah. You're so

right. See,

I was tripping because you're going off to one of your Ivy League schools and

leaving me.

And, girl, I was tripping because...

Because you were tripping.

Don't forget about me, okay?

Kim, I could never forget about you.

You're my girl. Your girl?

I forgot to tell you. I got a full scholarship to the Fashion Institute of

Leimert. Oh, my God.

You go, girl.

Hey, guys, I need to rehearse this song. Do you want to stay and watch? Yeah.

Oh,

my God, I love this song.

I went through the attic today, found an old

yearbook packed away.

And I started reliving the past

when I saw his face.

And suddenly, to my surprise,

Melted tears

and you want to come take the second verse?

Oh, no, I don't sing. Yes, you do sing. No, I don't. No, I don't.

longer interpret my recurring dream as anxiety about losing my friends, because

although I may be far away from them next fall, they will be as near to me as

heart. And even closer if my dad gives me a calling card.

Oh, and I figured out why I'm smiling.

It's because my best friend Kim was accepted to her first choice yesterday,

I'm so proud of her.

Donna Karan better watch out.
