- Is that Mike Tyson back there?

Hey, Carol! I don't believe this sh*t.

Excuse me. Mike Tyson.

I'm Hassan Al-Ibrahim Ben Rabinowitz.

I'm a professor of African studies...

at the university here. And I would

love it if you would come to my class...

to talk to my students because I think

they could benefit greatly from you.

Listen, brother, I'm not who you

believe I'm to be. I'm Buck, n*gger.

I'm Buck from Minnesota.

You don't know me.

Take the finance pages. There were

two stocks with the same symbol.

One was on NASDAQ. One was

on the American Stock Exchange.

One was worth 50 a stock

and the other was worth $75 a stock.

- You're not Mike Tyson?

- No, n*gger. I'm Buck.

- I thought you were Mike Tyson.

- I'm Buck. I don't give a f***!

- F***ing Christ! Hold on a second.

- It's perfectly legal. If you got the...

Sh*t. I'm sorry, Ford.

It's Buck, n*gger.

I'm pimping in the light. Now, go on.

If you knew better, you'd do better.

Get the f*** away from me.

All right. Okay.

You know, bin Laden, Sharon,

intermediator, Midwest crisis!

Good luck, Buck.

I don't believe this b*tch.

You should look into this other thing.

What are you looking at?

Look over here. Listen to me,

I got this porn thing happening.

What do you got?

Distribution of porn. Bringing in these

beautiful girls from Kyiv...

Moscow, Saint Petersburg.

These girls are working for nothing.

- What do you do?

- I'm retired, actually. I work out a lot.

- You do. Where do you work out?

- Sport Club Reebok.

- Really? Me, too. Yes.

- Do you?

Your name is?

- Vera Barrie. And yours?

- Michael.

- Michael, right. Of course, yes.

- Nice to meet you.

I didn't want to interrupt anything,

but that turns out not to be Tyson.

- At least he says he's not.

- Are you serious?

I don't know.

He says he's not Mike Tyson.

- He looks a lot like him.

- This is my daughter, Vera.

- Hi. How are you doing?

- Hi, pleased to meet you.

- That's an amazing bracelet.

- I bought it downtown in SoHo.

- Would you like something like that?

- Yeah, it's nice.

- So, uptown or downtown?

- I'm on the Upper West Side.

Okay. Maybe I'll see you there.

- That would be great.

- Okay. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

That's a friend of yours?

Yes. It's a friend, Michael,

I've known for a while.

So, anyways I was saying

that actually... Oh, God.

Prof. Rabinowitz.

I'm jammed, overwhelmed. Maybe the

week after next I'd love to. I'm sorry.

Could you set up,

like, a makeshift set?

- You know?

- Yeah, sure.

These girls are working for free,

basically.

Then you gotta redistribute all over

North Hollywood and California.

There's a lot of competition for that.
