RFRobert "Grandad" Freeman

I'm sorry the levees broke but if they don't get their black asses out of here, I'm gonna be broke.

It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's Catcher Freeman! (Catcher jumps out a tree and proceeds to kill some white men) Get them, Catcher! Looks at him go. Look out, Catcher, behind you! (Catcher throws his sword into a white man's mouth, killing him) Oh, he got that cracker! Ha Ha!

Scenes with Robert Freeman 8

(answering doorbell) It's a nigga in a purple suit!

(Cristal hides as Robert walks to the door)

Robert

Who are you?

My name is A Pimp Named Slickback, and I believe I may have misplaced some merchandise at this residence. There she is. (to Cristal) Bitch I hope you got the moneys to cover this little vacation you've been takin'.

Robert

Now hold up, Slickback.

No, that's "A Pimp Named Slickback."

Robert

That's what I said - "Slickback."

No no!, It's "A Pimp Named Slickback," like A Tribe Called Quest, you say the whole thing: "A Pimp Named Slickback"!

Robert

Can we call you "Slickback" for short?

No, nigga! I'm "A Pimp Named Slickback!"

Robert

Cristal, who is this person?

NIGGA ARE YOU DEAF? I'm "A Pimp Named Slickback"! Say it with me now!

He's my pimp!

CHCristal/Huey/Riley

Yes, I'm/she's a ho!

C'mon bitch, now!

A Pimp Named Slickback, can at least have a minute?

A minute?! (short chuckle in disbelief) Let us pray the pimp's prayer. (church organ playing) Lord, please pray for the soul of this bitch and guide my pimp hand and make it strooong Lord! So that she might learn a ho's place. Amen!

Amen! Yeah!

(A Pimp Named Slickback then draws his hand back to strike her, but Granddad's belt lashes out and catches his wrist.)

Robert

You ain't gonna hit no woman in my house!

What woman, sir? This here's a ho!

Robert

Not in this house, she's not!

[A Pimp Named Slickback looks at Robert, surprised but impressed]

Damn! Indiana Jones. I didn't know we were still whoopin', nigga. Fine. [points to Cristal as he walks out] Bitch, you got 45 seconds, then I'm leavin'. [holds up a hand, counting off] Forty-four, forty-three...

JJericho

Come on Robert, what would mama say it she knew you were kickin' out your family?

RFRobert "Granddad" Freeman

SHE'D SAY GET THEM BROKE-ASS NIGGAS THE FUCK OUT!!!

(while playing checkers with Robert at the park)

Oh, we probably gonna die any second now from one of these conditions and diseases niggas get. You name it, diabetes, gout, high blood pressure, asthma, sickle cell (Robert interrupts mid-sentence)...

Robert

Oh, Ruckus stop. This is all in your damn head,you the exact same fool you were last week. You were black then,you're black now and you're gonna be black tomorrow.(Ruckus sighs dejectedly) Ain't nothin' wrong with being black and if you give it a chance you might actually like it, Hmmm? Mmm hm?

(Cut to Robert and Uncle Ruckus at a Foot Locker)

Robert

Ruckus, what are we doing here?

Well, this is what niggas do,right? Buy sneakers, then maybe later we'll buy loud stereos and be-rate women in rap lyrics. (looks at a display hi-top sneaker with visible shock absorbers). Is this the shit you niggas wear nowadays? This look like a damn astronaut shoe! I'm black, I'm not walkin' to the moon! I'm walkin' to the liquor store!

Robert

Ruckus, STOP! C'mon man.

LeeBron James, Allen Iverson,can I get a shoe named after a white man, PLEASE?! (spots a young black male Foot Locker employee) 'Scuse me, darkie in the zebra shirt! Can I get a Bruce Jenner sneaker?

Robert

Man, to hell with this bullshit, you on your own! (walks out of the Foot Locker, leaving Ruckus behind).

I'm not leavin' here 'till I get me a shoe named after a white man! John Stockton, Pistol Pete Maravich, ANYBODY!

Robert

I gon' really let him have it. Show him my stuff. Give that man everything I got.

Pause.

Robert

Pause? Pause what?

You said somethin' gay, so you gotta say "no homo" or else you a homo.

Robert

But what did I say gay?

You said you was gon' give this dude everything you got. No homo.

Robert

That's not gay. I said I was gon' give the man everything I got.

Pause, Granddad. If it sound gay, its gay and you gotta say "no homo". How I know you not a homo, Granddad, if you don't say "no homo"?

Robert

I'm not sayin' "no homo".

Okay, you wanna be a homo.

Robert

Stop callin' your granddaddy a homo!

Then say "no homo"!

Robert

I don't wanna say "no homo"! Imma homo yo' ass if you don't stop sayin' pause!

...Pause.

I hate to this, Grandad. But you did look like a pussy punk bitch. You should've stuck with your story.

Robert

It was a DNA test.

Well, study next time. (Huey hits him with a book) Ow!

Grandad, there's no use beating yourself up.

Yeah, Steve Wilkos already did that.

Robert

I can't believe all this time. A son. A son named Lando.

Grandad, it's not all your fault. This doesn't make you a horrible person.

SWSteve Wilkos

(on TV) It's all your fucking fault! You're a horrible fucking person!

Robert

Oh, why me? Why did he do this to me?

(When Nellie Ruckus died)

Uncle, she gone.

Robert

In my living room?! Oh, No!

(Seeing Nellie's dead body, sitting slumped in the chair) Ugh!

Robert(Also seeing Nellie's dead body, sitting slumped in the chair) In my living chair?! OH, NOOOOO!!! (Turns to Huey) Huey! Get my chainsaw!

(At Nellie Ruckus's funeral, at Mister's remarks about Uncle)

UUncle

No, that's okay. Keep talking, keep talking, Daddy. That's the eulogy the whole woman deserves! Oh, she did this to you and now you doing it to me! You've been doing it our WHOLE lives and it's getting old! It's getting REAL OLD, Old Man, so GET IT OUT OF YOUR SYSTEM THEN SIT DOWN AND SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!

(Everybody gasps at Uncle's outburst)

Robert

Oh, shit...

Boy, what did you say to me?

UUncle

(Innocently) Um... what part in particular?

I'LL SHOW YOU "WHAT PART IN PARTICULAR"!!!

(Goes to raise a bottle of alcohol to hit Uncle, but feels a sharp of pain)

(In pain) OWWW!!! My back! It's my old injury!

(Mister stumbles and falls into Nellie Ruckus's grave, breaking his neck and killing him)

DDarrel

He's dead!

Well, I guess Grandma Nellie got her wish.

BBunny

Yes, now I can marry my white lover!

UUncle

If only Mister live long enough to love the white man too.
