Man, what are they doing with our tax money?

This classroom hasn't changed since I went here.

Yep. This is where I carved my name, and it's still here.

Who's Constance?

Who do you think, Trudy? One of my many proud girlfriends.

Yes. One of his imaginary friends.

It's nice up in here, huh? It's nice, Mama. You see my classroom.

Look at that, what I drew. Can we go now?

What's the hurry, Penny?

You've been acting strange all morning.

Now, who's your homeroom teacher?

Well, well, well.

If it ain't the bougie bunch.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, now. Miss Hill?

You're still here?

I thought you took the money and ran.

Oh, I did.

But you know a million dollars doesn't buy what it used to. No, I don't know

anything about that.

You got that, Mama?

I know that it takes a village to raise a child.

But what are you doing here?

Oh, I'll tell you what I'm doing here.

You better stay away from my body or you're going to need a village to keep

off your butt. Sugar Mama!

Now, you promised to let us do the talking.

Yeah, but I didn't say nothing about the fighting.

Look, this is going to be short and sweet.

Penny's feeling everything.

Any questions?

Not for me, Miss Hill.

Let's go, y 'all. Stay right where you are, young lady.

That's impossible, Miss Hill.

There must be some mistake.

No, no mistake.

Every one of her teachers gave her a failing grade. She got two from me.

Not only is she not doing the work, but she's late every day.

I mean, CP late. It's kind of disgusting.

What, Penny?

You can't be talking about Penny. Is that true, Penny?

I was late a couple times, I guess.

Why were you late any time?

Probably that boy Kareem. She's been running around weak.

Boy, that's it. You're going to military school.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

Family, family, what?

You and me will always be tight.

Family every day and every night.

Even when you start acting like a fool.

You know that I'm loving every single thing you do.

Oh, I see myself when I'm with you more than anybody else. Every single day that

I'm headed off to school, you know I love you.

The family.

The family.

Family. Family.

They'll make you dream.

They'll make you want to see.

The family.

The family.

A proud, proud family.

Family.

They'll push your butt in.

that make you want to hug us.

Family, family, proud, proud family.

Proud, proud family. I can't believe you've been walking out of this house

every day and not going straight to school.

Oh, things are going to change around here, young lady.

Bobby, what happened?

Oh, what took y 'all so long?

Take these little munchies. They ate all my nachos.

And my green sauce, too.

They left me with the broken chips.

Uh -uh, young lady.

Upstairs and in your books now.

But I'm hungry.

You don't need to eat. You need to study. Now do what I told you. And we

not catch you on the phone with that boy.

All right, keep rolling your eyes. I'll roll your butt back to Sugar Mama's

house. Yeah, yeah.

Send it to me.

I'll straighten her butt out like I did the last time. I could use a good

pedicure. My feet are barking.

Penny.

Are you okay?

I'm studying, Mom.

No, that's not what I'm talking about.

I admit I was messing up a little, but I'll do better. I promise, Mom.

Look, I know you think this boy is the most important thing in the world right

now, but trust me, he's not.

Honey, you're too young to be losing your head over some boy.

There'll be plenty of time for that when you're older. Do you understand what

I'm saying?

Yes, ma 'am.

That was just my mom.

Now that she's still tripping.

Oh, I miss you more.

I need you more.

I love you more.

Kareem! That song slaps.

You send it to Lowercase Records?

They don't know good music.

You should send it to Young Toddler. I bet he'll do it.

Yeah, we've been talking all...

No, we don't. That's why I'm driving you to school today.

Daddy! You are not walking to school with your friends, and especially that

Now, come on.

That better be your stomach growling.

Okay. A train leaves the station traveling at the speed of 2x miles per

Another train, 150 miles away, ain't going the opposite way. This direction

leaves the station traveling at 3x miles per hour. Where will they crash?

Anybody got the answer?

Because I want to know when to get off that train.

Okay. How about you, bowling pinhead?

Huh? What?

I'm not one of your students. If you're in my class, you're my student. Now,

what's the answer, skinny tie?

Well, if you add the 2 and carry the x...

What? He both fell into the well and can't get out?

And he's drowning?

I'll be right there.

I gotta go. My producer is in trouble.

Penny, stay away from that boy.

And by the way, the correct answer is Cleveland.

Although I'm pretty sure no trains go there. Watch your mouth. I'm from

Cleveland. Shake a height.

Well, if it's so great, why don't you take the three eggs back there?

I'm glad my daddy's gone, but I hope he both okay.

He's fine.

I told him to have Mr. Chips call your dad with an emergency for me.

Oh, my baby's so smart.

We know I'd do anything for you, baby.

So, have you guys decided what you're going to dress up as for the up -all

-night 90s party?

90s? How do you dress like the 90s? Just go in your mother's closet.

I'm sure she has something.

Look, guys, it's simple.

Pick your favorite 90s icon and dress like them. I pick Selina.

I'm going to be the diva of all divas, Miss Fierceness of South Grace Jones.

Oh, I know who we can be, baby.

I thought on an oldie sham.

We can go with Martin and Gina. Girl, you so crazy.

I'm going to two.

I'm going to be Lauryn Hill, but I'll be on time.

Penny, who are you going to be?

Penny!

Huh? What?

Who are you going to be at the Up All Night 90s party? Besides a simp. Oh, I

have the perfect person for you, Proud.

I love all five of your heads.

All right, Kareem, let's go.

We got to practice for, I said, the up all night party.

No, it's all good.

I'll meet you there.

No, you said that last time and you never showed up. Come on, man.

Oh, I'll miss you.

No, I'll miss you.

I'll miss you more.

Have some pride, man. Jeez.

Girl. What is up with you and Kareem?

What do you mean?

You all over him like, well, like I used to be on Sticky.

Girl, nobody is that thirsty.

Y 'all are so booed up you can't even go to the bathroom without each other,

Penny. Yeah, I'm all for love, but you don't even come to class anymore, Penny.

And that scene in the hallway the other day, ooh, it's giving obsessive.

Today has been the most amazing day I've ever experienced, my dreamy Karimi. Me

too. I wish it would never end, my shea butter baby.

I gotta go, and I'll call you as soon as I get home.

I'll be waiting.

Where have you been, young lady?

Hold it right there, young lady. What, Daddy?

I've got to go upstairs and study, remember?

You need to go upstairs and get a job. Have you seen this mobile?

What?

It's obvious you can't be trusted, Penny. All right, give me your phone.

But, Mom!

You better pat that girl down for a burner, Trudy.

Don't. Don't worry, we've got this, Sugar Mama.

If you had it, there wouldn't be a problem.

Turn around and be still.

Shut up, and I say be still.

Like a pig.

Oh, that's just sloppy, Penny.

Your Uncle Bob taught you better than that.

I told you not to lose your head over that boy.

I am truly disappointed in you, Penny.

And one more thing.

You are grounded.

But, Daddy!

Tomorrow's the up -all -night party!

According to this phone bill, you are up all night, every night!

But, Daddy, nothing. You just got an extra week punishment.

Keep talking, and I'll make it a year.

Parker, don't you think you're being a little harsh?

Penny's just discovering her emotions.

Well, she's about to discover that I don't play.

And I blame this all on you, Judy. What? You blame me?

How is any of this my fault? If you and Sugar Mama would have listened to me in

the first place, she'd be wearing this suit of armor. Boys can't get in, she

can't get out. You can't be serious.

I'm as serious as that mustache on Sure Mama's lip.

I

bet

that seriously hurts, don't it, boy?

Hey, baby, just checking on you.

I'm okay.

Look, Penny, you don't have anyone to blame but yourself.

You know how your daddy is.

Until you learn that we want you to focus on your studies and not boys, this

the way it's going to be.

Yes, ma 'am.

Okay, baby.

We'll talk in the morning.

And let me out?

Really? No.

Who are you supposed to be, Proud? A washed -up WNBA player?

No. We're Monica and Quincy from Love and Basketball.

Oh, that's my favorite movie!

I would have come as Monica, except I would have been accused of cultural

appropriation. That's right. Sing your lane.

Love and Basketball isn't from the 90s! I know! I love Kyla Pratt in that movie.

We don't care, Lassie Iniga.

Well, I...

instructions. Michael, don't just stand there. Do something.

Done.

Uh -oh. Uncle Bobby?

What is he doing here?

He's Miss Hillsby.

Oh, man. I thought they broke up.

And they're serving nachos.

Three beats. Report to the stage.

Three beats. Report to the stage.

That's us.

Just be cool, right?

I didn't expect to see you.

I'm glad your parents let you come.

Yeah, me too.

Oh, have fun, little niece.

Be young, be foolish, but be happy.

Oh, yeah.

Y 'all, we about to get it popping here. It's the 90s, and we got a super old

hippie.

Then she came with the same type game. The type girl giving out the fake cell

phone and name. Big fame. She like cats with big things.

But do these healing children think they do?

They doing the same thing we doing. Nah, they not about to give me time.

Just nice.

Everybody straighten up. I want to see you.

Hey,

where y 'all going?

Nowhere you wanna go, Dijonay.

As long as it's not here, I don't care.

Come on, Damien.

Uh,

why are we at the cemetery?

This is where the film festival is.

We gonna be watching movies with dead people?

Look, Dijonay, I told you you wouldn't wanna come.

Just got here.

I was afraid you wouldn't be here.

I'll be here every night waiting for you.

You mean they're not here no more?

I got a suspended sentence.

Sounded like you was never getting out.

Wait a minute.

Is this the sun?

Oh, we gotta go, we gotta go.

Zane! It looks like everybody is here.

Yeah, including my parents.

So what are we gonna do?

Go inside.

But I guess we have to.

I knew you would end up with an ankle bracelet, Proud. Girl, I told you you

doing too much.

So what happens if you get within ten feet, Penny?

Hey, Penny.

Can I holler at you for a second?

No, girls, that's because y 'all don't use fabric softener.

Look,

I'm sorry I got you in trouble.

No, I got you in trouble.

No, it was my fault.

I'm the one that brought up the film festival. But I'm the one that snuck out

the house. Okay, but I'm the one that picked you up from... Oh, okay, yeah, it

was both of our faults.

So what are we gonna do?

I can't stand not being close to you.

My parents are sending me to live with my aunt and uncle in Arkansas.

What? When?

Tomorrow.

But why?

So I can refocus.

And because you're not there. But that's not fair.

Nah.

It isn't fair.

But I don't have a choice.

I'm really going to miss you, Penny Proud.

You're going to be late for school.

I don't feel good.

Look, I know you're upset about Kareem, and it seems harsh, but you'll realize

when you're older it's all for the best.

Now trust me, you'll get over your little crush.

It's not a little crush, Mommy.

I love Kareem.

Baby, you're too young to know what love is.

All right, fine. This is what we're going to do.

I'm gonna let you stay home today, but that's it.

I'm dropping Vivi and Cece off. Call me on my cell if you need anything.

Mommy?

Daddy?

Good, they gone.

Thank you, KG.

You sure about this?

No.

But I'm sure about it.

All right, baby. Boots next.

Let's go.

Young, wild, and free, tied to your heartbeat, flying through

the stars.
