You're not goin' nowhere.

You're gonna make me

a social misfit.

l'm tryin' to make you

a responsible person.

But l am responsible.

Listen, get your act together.

Keep your mind on them books

and off them gals.

'Cause you will make

the same mistake l did.

Look, l'm sorry.

l'm under a lot of pressure.

l'm sorry.

But you ain't goin'

to that damn party.

what you say.

That's why l hate messin'

with them.

We got to get going.

No time to waste.

Who's that in the car, Play?

That's a honey.

l know what you're thinking.

That ain't for you,

but there'll be a lot more.

We can't fit

a lot of equipment...

and three people

in that little-ass car!

You don't know how

to load things scientifically.

Leave it!

Just leave it! l'll do it!

Leave it alone!

Hey, l'm--Hey!

There it is. We got it.

Where am l supposed to sit?

Get out! She's gonna walk!

She's gonna walk!

Of course you can fit.

Try the other side.

You can get in right over--

Excuse me one minute.

Yes, baby?

l don't even appreciate

how you treatin' me.

l'm real sorry, baby.

l do appreciate

the way you look.

No. Don't touch me!

l'll tell you what.

l'll run this over to my crib

and be right back.

Be right back? Kiss my ass!

You gonna take

my equipment and leave me?

No! l ain't goin' for it!

What else can l do?

Kick that b*tch to the curb

and let me ride.

l'm the D.J., man.

Who you callin' a b*tch?

Your mama's a b*tch.

-My mama ain't no b*tch.

-lf l am, she is.

l'll kick your ass!

l'll fight a girl!

l know.

l seen a couple beat you.

l can't. lt would be cold.

Besides,

she's packed in real good.

Look, no.

You know what, man?

l f***ed up today.

l owe you one,

and l'll be right back for you.

-No, you ain't.

-He's got nerve.

l'll kick both of your asses.

Play, don't play.

Don't do that!

Don't drive off!

l'll say it calmly.

Maybe l was hollering.

Play, don't play.

l love you!

Play! Damn!

Hold on, man.

Somebody's at the door.

lt's Sidney.

Yeah, she's a trip.

You know who she is.

You like her.

Go ahead and wait

in the living room...

with your big nose.

Punk. Hi, everybody.

No, man, l said 12:00.

l didn't say 8:
00.

l ain't going

to no party at 8:00.

-Sharane!

-l'm coming!

There'll be

fine women at the party.

Why bring a girl with you?

The incomparable Delfonics

and much, much more.

This is a fantastic album.

Let me borrow it.

No, my brother.

You've got to buy your own.
