So, you guys keep it locked because we
have more BET coming up. Oh, if you're

currently living your dreams, God bless.
Congratulations.

And if you're not, keep pursuing them,
but have a backup plan.

Hey, can I please talk

to my busted babies real quick, homie?

Let me bring you my world. Let you know
what I call the busted baby.

We'll be right back.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Everybody know that I'm mine. My baby.
My baby.

Everybody know that I'm mine.

Yeah, yeah.

Oh, no.

They say he's an entertainer. Slow down.
You're just one more.

He don't respect you.

He just gonna hurt you. Well,

let them say what they wanna. I made a
promise.

You're right and I'm gonna.

Girl, I do everything I can to prove I'm
a better man than your friends think I

am.

We'll be right back.

Cause when we finish, she messed up all
my bed set.

She got something to relax me when I'm
under stress.

Never told her to let her know I was
getting fed. She like to tell her name

a...

If you had told me it was this good, I'd
have never guessed.

She's full of surprises. I don't know
what she'll do next.

When I sleep, I sneak and put hickeys on
her neck. And when she go, I can shut

down the whole set.

Lord, I see in heels with the slit in
her dress. She like to do her own hat

get her own check.

My butt says, baby, I keep on. She got
me speeding in the fast lane. Pedal to

the plow main.

Trying to get back to her love.

Best believe she got that good.

Thank you

guys

so much at home for watching. I greatly
appreciate that.

Everyone else, peace and blessings to
you all. Enjoy the rest of your day. I'm

out.

They got nothing but the genes But they
got different strokes to take Different

strokes to take Different strokes to
move the world Everybody's got a

special kind of story Everybody finds a
way to shine It don't matter

that you got

Hello, Maggie.

Hello, Dad. How's my favorite family
doing? Just fine, thank you. Well, you

certainly are chipper this morning. You
certainly are, Arnold. You do know it's

a school day, don't you?

Yes, Maggie.

See, this year our class is in charge of
the charity fundraiser, and today I'm

going to be elected chairman of the
entertainment committee.

Oh, really? What makes you so sure you
will be elected?

Could you vote against this phase?

I'll get it. Oh, man.

Today's a great day.

Absolutely nothing can go wrong. I can
feel it.

Well, are you taking me to school or
not, squid bait?

Not!

Arnold,

that was very rude.

You don't... slam the door in a person's
face.

Carmella's not a person, and that's not
a face.

And besides that, Dad, she thinks that
just because she grew up on an army

she could push me around.

Arnold, we want you to be nice to her.
She's a visitor to our country.

It's more like a visitor to our planet.

Come in, Carmella. Good morning,
Carmella. Hello, Mrs. Drummond. Hello,

Drummond. Hello, squid bait.

Oh, Arnold, I probably should have
mentioned this to you before, but since

is Carmella's first day at school, we
thought it would be nice if you'd take

along with you and introduce her to some
of your friends.

Why? They hate practical jokes.

You've been given a direct order by your
parents. If you were in my father's

outfit, you'd be double -timing a 20
-mile hike with a full backpack.

Hi, Willis.

Oh, no.

Not the mad Italian pincher.

Yes, you. Ever since you moved here,
you've pinched me so many times, I've

polka dot buns.

Carmela, listen, in America, women don't
pinch men.

Unless they're married to them.

All right, it's time to take me to
school. Let's move them out, sweet pea.

Dad, do I have to taste her? That's
right, sweet pea.

Come on, Arnold. She doesn't know
anybody. It's her first day.

All right.

A tan hut!

Why do I always fall for that? Because
you're a knucklehead. Now move it out.

Double time. Come on, move it. Move! BET

If it isn't Arnold Jackson and his band
of merry twits.

You know, nobody's supposed to be
sitting in that seat until we elect a

chairman. Well, if this chair's for
nobody, have a seat.

Just wait, Arnold Jackson. You're in for
a big surprise.

Hey, are we going to elect a chairman or
are we going to sit here all day and

watch Lisa's lips flap?

Arnold! Arnold!

Arnold!

Arnold! Me?

What a surprise.

I guess Lionel's a good choice if you
don't mind electing someone whose IQ is

less than his shoe size.

But before you make it official, last
night I spoke to my Uncle Charles, a

important music agent.

He said if I was elected chairman of the
committee, he would get us Lionel

Richie for our fundraiser.

Lisa! Lisa!

Lisa! Hold it!

You mean to tell me you'd vote for Lisa
just because she can get Lionel Richie?

Come on.

This vote should be decided on ability,
intelligence, and integrity.

By the way, did I mention I can get Mr.
T?

Hey, yeah. They once filmed an episode
of the A -Team in Arnold's apartment.

And they've been pen pals ever since.

That's right.

It's a little -known fact that the A in
A -Team stands for Arnold.

Lisa! Lisa!

Lisa! Lisa! Thank you, everybody.

I'll start to make the arrangements
immediately.

But first...

Buzz off and get out of my seat, fungus
brain.

It's a good thing I'm not bringing Mr. T
here.

Your breath would melt his mohawk.

Thanks a lot, you two.

You really want Lionel Richie that bad?

Richie, why no school?

Yeah, everyone's excited.

My mom, my dad, my sister, even my dog.

Last night he spelled out lion on his
kibble.

Yeah, it's too bad.

I can just see Mr. T laying around his
swimming pool in Hollywood, rubbing

suntan lotion on his chains, talking to
our good friend Tina Turner.

I can just hear her now.

But he made it.

I love to appear at Arnold Jackson's
benefit.

Hey, here's Lisa.

What happened?

What's happening?

What did he say? He took one look at her
face and said, forget it, I don't sing

at dog shows.

wrong, Lisa?

There is no Lionel Richie.

Oh, no.

First Santa Claus and now this.

No, stupid.

My uncle talked to Lionel last night,
but he can't make it.

Well, if you can't get Lionel Richie,
you can't be chairman.

Yeah, I guess we should have voted for
you after all, Arnold.

Well, it's not too late to change your
minds.

Arnold! Arnold!

Arnold! Yeah, then I say let's vote for
Arnold.

Because he's going to get us Mr. T,
right, Arnold?

Uh, yeah, right. Hey, you want Mr. T?
You got Mr.

T.

Arnold! Arnold!

Arnold! Arnold!

Arnold! Arnold!

Arnold! Arnold!

Whoa.

That's a three -shooter.

Who cheated?

Nope. One cheater.

I know it's the fourth time I've called,
but are you sure Mr. Chief won't be

back for two weeks?

Well, if he comes back early, please
have him call Arnold Jackson.

Thanks.

Was that Mr. Chief's agent?

No, his jeweler.

Oh, you gotta help me.

Carmella is driving me crazy.

For you, that's just a short drive.

Arnold, listen, man, if you see
Carmella, tell her I got a steady

I've moved to Detroit, I've become a
priest, and I've got a disease they

even named yet.

Better yet, I'll give her your private
phone number and you can tell her

yourself.

You do that and I'll reach out and choke
someone.

What kind of behavior is that for a
priest?

Well, Arnold, how's the big talent
search going?

I'd even settle for a gong show reject.

I've got an idea. You might consider my
boyfriend.

The one with no hair?

Right. He can slap his head and play
Swanee River.

Uh, no thanks, Pearl.

Come to think of it, he can slap
anywhere and play Swanee River.

And we'll go honky -tonking, honky
-tonking. We'll go honky

-tonking, honky -tonking. We'll go honky
-tonking. Run this train!

Sam, what are you doing?

Thanks, but I'm not that desperate.

You will be in a couple of days.

Come on, Arnold.

I'll be terrific.

Super. The best.

You'll see.

Look, Sam, if that crowd does not get a
star, they may want blood.

I'm really not that good, Arnold.

Listen, Sam, just don't tell Maggie or
Dad about this, okay? Tell Dad what?

Nothing, right, Sam?

Right.

Mr. D, you could pull my toenails out
and I still wouldn't tell you about the

mess, Arnold, then.

Sam, why don't I talk to Arnold alone
about this, okay?

Yes, sir.

Bye, Arnold.

I'm sure glad I'm not in your shoes.

Well, young man, what's the story?

I get very interested.

What's the problem?

See, Dad, when Lisa definitely had
Lionel Richie, I mentioned that maybe,

possibly, I could get Mr.

T.

And now the whole school is expecting
you to deliver Mr.

T. You catch on fast, Dad.

Thanks, Arnold.

Now, why do you think that you said what
you did about Mr. T?

Well, I've got to keep up my image of a
big man on campus.

You know, Arnold,

often people, nice people, attractive
people, don't really believe that others

will like them for themselves.

Okay, Dad.

I know I act like that sometimes.

Well, it's important for you to realize
that that kind of behavior is really

unnecessary. You don't need that. You
are a terrific young man.

Right, Sam?

Right, Mr. D.

Well, you should have told me this last
week, Dad. I'm in a real jam.

You think you could pull some strings
and call some of your important friends

and give me a star for the show?

No, son, I think this would be a better
lesson to you if you didn't have to work

it out yourself.

But, Dad, how?

If I can't get a star for charity night,
I'm going to have to go on stage and

tell the truth.

That's right, son.

Well, I guess I could tell the truth.

That sounds like a good idea to me.

You can't beat the truth.

Second thought, I could still get a
star.

Hello. Acme Talent Agency?

Yeah. My school's putting on a charity
show, and I'd like to know what kind of

stars you may have available.

Why would a lady want to tie herself
into a knot?

So, Arnold, who do we got for the show?

Well, I've got a dancer. a musician, and
I'm thinking about hiring an escape

artist to get me out of this mess.

Boy, Arnold, if you don't want to get a
big star, I'm not coming to charity

night. I don't want to see you get beat
up.

Here we are.

Hey, boys.

Hi. Hi, guys.

Excuse me, I've got to go. Mr. Turner's
taking us to soccer practice. Have a

good practice, Sam. I will.

And don't try to stop any more goals
with your face.

Can I get some fancy footwork? Sure.

Arnold,

I think we may have the answer to your
star search dilemma.

Really? I mean, if you do, I'd be
eternally grateful.

Eternally grateful? That should be good
for a couple of weeks.

Don't keep me in suspense.

Who have you got?

Carmella.

Keep me in suspense.

Now, Arnold, we just had a talk with
her. Did you know her father is with a

in Europe?

That's right, and he knows a lot of big
stars. You might just want to ask her if

she can help you.

Ask Carmella for help?

Oh, Dad, I can't do that. I'd never hear
the end of it.

I'd rather be boiled in oil.

I'd rather be pulled apart by wild
horses.

I'd rather be dunked in honey and tied
to an ant hill.

Please, you've got to let me speak to
Bruce Springsteen.

We're close personal buddies.

You could do it, too.

Your parents tell me you might need some
help.

Not me.

I haven't got any problems.

Really? I heard you still don't have a
star for charity night.

Well, nothing definite.

But I've still got a lot of irons in the
fire.

I'm expecting a call from Mr. T any time
now.

I thought you couldn't get him.

Well, Mr. T's thinking about sending one
of his friends.

I'm leaning towards Stevie Wonder.

But another way to go is, uh, Willie
Nelson.

I don't know. I can think of another way
to go.

Okay, Dad.

Uh, Carmilla, I think I'm gonna need
your help.

What's that?

I said I may need your help.

Sounded like you said I need your help.

I did.

So what can I do for you, Squidbait?

Oh, nothing special.

Do you think your dad could get me Bob
Hope?

Well, Bob Hope or even someone bigger
if... I knew it. Name your blackmail.

For starters, you can't slam the door in
my face anymore.

Okay. And secondly...

You gotta stop doing those jokes about
me.

Oh, all right.

And thirdly, I want Willis' private
phone number. No. No

way. No. That's completely out of the
question.

Thanks for the memory.

555 -9470.

I'll be a brief intermission.

Excuse me, Mr. Drummond. Are these seats
taken? No, Pearl. We've been saving

them for you.

Mr.

and Mrs. Drummond, I'd like you to meet
Mr.

Wright.

Isn't he just wonderful?

Not a hair.

hose container.

Dad, Maggie, have you seen Carmella? I
can't find her anywhere.

No, Arnold, we haven't seen her.

Oh, man, I knew it. She's not getting me
a star.

She told me not to worry, but she was
just setting me up to get killed.

We want the star.

We want the star.

We want the star. Nobody ever got
killed.

Ladies and gentlemen, I guess I must
apologize to everyone.

I wasn't able to get Mr.

T.

I was even trying to get Bob Hope,
but...

Uh,

excuse me, everyone. I'll be right back.

Come on, please tell me you've got
someone.

Well, I knew it. Look, Arnold, my father
didn't have time to get Bob Hope.

But I wouldn't let you down. I've got
someone.

Who?

Well, they want it to be a big surprise.
Just get out there and give them a big

introduction. But who do I have to do?

Swing it. You'll think of something.

Go ahead.

Thanks a lot.

Uh, ladies and gentlemen. Uh, ladies and
gentlemen.

I think we have a star.

Now, this is someone who's known to us
all.

who's possibly made us laugh many times
or danced for us many times or maybe

sung to us many times.

Let's hear it for, um... that person.

It's all over.

Well, it was nice having Arnold as a
brother.

Arnold's trying to pull a fast one.

I love it.

This is my kind of show.

Arnold Jackson's a dead man.
