CHOLLY:
Git his forehead and eyebrows.
SHORTY:
I know what I'm doing.
Shorty applies the Vaseline to that area. Now he brings
over the steaming jar and places it nearby.
SHORTY (CONTD)
Listen. You pull my coat if it's
still stinging when I get through
'cause this sh*t can burn a hole
through cement.
CHOLLY:
Hold tight, baby, and keep your eyes
shut.
Malcolm nods his head, clenches his eyes and grits his teeth.
Shorty applies the congolene with a comb, working it into
Malcolm's hair.

MALCOLM:
I thought you said it was gonna
sting... this ain't nothin'.
For a moment nothing happens, then the heat hits him. He
yells, tries to catch his breath: his head is on fire.
MALCOLM (CONTD)

He nearly leaps out of the chair, but the barber restrains

Shorty, utterly unmoved by the outburst, continues working
the congolene into his hair.
Malcolm breaks out of the chair wildly. But the three men
drag him to a basin where Shorty has attached the shower
spray. His cries filling the room, Malcolm is ducked under
the spray. Shorty starts rinsing out his hair.
SHORTY:
Don't fight me, man. Let me git it
out.

then he feels the congolene again and there is another
outburst. Shorty forces his head under the spray, spurts the
water all over his head, wetting Malcolm and the shop in the
process.
SHORTY:
Well, Homeboy, you almost there.

Shorty is supervising as Malcolm tries on a zoot suit. He
slips into the jacket...
