Muriel and Thurgood in “Operation Gumbo Drop”

I think you're takin' this contest too seriously, Thurgood. Projects Week is supposed to be fun.

Muriel, I can't lose this contest. My gumbo is the only reason folks respect me. When the people of these projects thinks of gumbo, they think of me because Thurgood Stubbs means gumbo. Don't you see? I'm gumbo, damn it!

Thurgood.

Gumbo's my passion, Muriel. Gumbo's my only love.

Now Thurgood, I'm sure if you think about it, there's something else you love.

Muriel, I don't want a 40. I just threw up!

[sighs] I'll get you a glass of water.

Muriel, you're so good to me. That's why I like you.
