seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve.

And stretch it out.

Work your whole bicuspids area,

your whole bilaterals and bisexuals.

Very good.

Excuse me, Buster?

I think I need

a little adjustment over here.

Look at you,

looking like the Great Pumpkin, girl.

Trick or treat. What's going on?

Well, see, I was born with a trick hip

and it made me real bendy.

See, I'm just like licorice. Look.

Goddamn, girl,

that look like the harvest moon.

Turn a brother to a werewolf.

You just need to stop.

You know what?

Do you do any private lessons?

I could do private lessons

if you could do me a little favor.

What's that?

Just need you talk to your little brothers

about funding my little video tape.

I'm trying to make powertap

more international.

I'm trying to be like Billy Blanks,

but double the money

and half the Blank.

That's a good idea.

Maybe I will, maybe I will.

But, first, I got to get that private lesson.

Okay. Call me, girl.

I'll call you.

I'll be your private dancer.

Must be Saturday.

Why is that?

Because here come Norbit,

right on schedule.

Almost set your watch to him.

Hey, Pope Sweet Jesus

and Lord Have Mercy.

How you guys doing, fellows?

Business is good.

Business is good.

It's almost like the good old days.

Yes, indeedy.

What do you mean,

"the good old days"?

The good old days, man,

back when we was pimping, Norbit.

You know.

You guys used to pimp?

"Used to"?

That's a violation. Still pimping.

Once a pimp, always a pimp.

Always. Forever.

Boss player.

Rasputia sent me down here

to get the usual.

You guys are open, right?

We always open.

Go on and take yourself in there, Norbit.

We'll stack that up for you.

Moniqua!

Yes, Daddy.

Can you get King Kong

three large buckets, extra sauce?

Please don't trim the fat.

Yes, Daddy.

Please don't trim that fat.

She will kill me.

Norbit, while I got your attention,

can I interest you in some new shoes,

maybe a haircut?

How about a bath or a sink?

Hey, don't tell me

you guys bought the bath store, too?

It's a perfect fit, man.

We used to sell b*tches to johns.

Now we selling johns to b*tches.

Beds, b*tches, and beyond!

Sound like money to me.

No, thanks, guys.

I got to go do a puppet show

for the kids at the orphanage.

At the orphanage?

That's a nice thing you do

for them little kids over there.

Why don't you take

these little tater puffs

over there to them little children?

Oh, that's great, guys. That's sweet.

Wait, my puppets! I forgot my puppets!

I got to go. I got to go, guys.

Where's his puppets?

He ain't got no puppets.

What's Rasputia doing home so early?

'Sputia?

Oh, yeah, girl.

Come on, girl, that's sweet chocolate!
