A, B, C.

Superstar.

Nerds.

Yeah, homeboy

was on the news last week.

Supposed to be

some kind of genius.

So when we going

to play some ball, man?

Oh, no, man.

I got that thing later.

Oh, that's right.

Ping-Pong.

When you gonna get

a bowl cut?

I'm just helping out

my moms, man.

Kick her while she's down,

why don't you?

You're in Ping-Pong too?

No, dog,

I ain't in Ping-Pong.

I'm teaching Ping-Pong.

Awesome!

I'm in that class!

This it?

Yep.

All right,

all right.

What's going on,

everybody?

Come on over.

Is it true that Coach Wang

broke ten bones?

I heard they had to

cut off her arm.

What are you smoking?

All y'all need to know is,

I'm going to be teaching

for a little while.

Who are you?

I'm Chris,

but call me C-Dub.

Are you the guy that wins

the Ping-Pong tournament

every single year?

No.

But isn't Coach Wang

your mom?

That's her other son.

Yeah, better

get that straight.

- What's your name?

- William.

Free Willy,

listen up.

Don't ask stupid questions,

and you won't get

stupid answers.

All right, the rest of y'all,

come up here real quick.

Put a check

next to your name.

Hey, what's your name again?

Felix.

F- Bomb, hey.

What's the deal

with the white boys?

Coach Wang

lets them practice here.

They're, like, pros

or something.

All right, whatever.

So what y'all

normally do?

We usually warm up first.

Coach Wang always says...

Ah, t-t-t-t.

Don't just stand there

and tell me about it.

Step to it.

We're done.

20 forehands

and 20 backhands each.

Well, good for you.

Now do another 20.

Make that 30.

Aw, yeah.

What's up, playa?

Oh, I see you got

your eye on that.

So what's the holdup?

Aw, man,

you can't just run up

and start

humping her leg like a dog.

You got to be

like a tiger, man.

You got to stalk the prey.

You got to wait for it

and then...

bam,

pounce on that.

Yeah, I feel you

on that, man.

I feel you.

Hey, what you up to, man?

Joe put that issue of Hellboy

on hold for me.

Aw, man, I got to work.

On Saturday?

Work sucks, man.

Oh, I forgot.

You wouldn't know.

Ah, it's like that, huh?

I help you out

with your Chinese homework,

and this is how

you repay me?

Don't worry.

When I'm making my millions

in the exploding China market,

I'll be sure to cut you in

on a little RNB.

Yeah, you better.

Oh, hey, keys.

How long?

Brother's car

is still in the shop.

Later.

Take care of my baby.

My rims keep shining,

and my paint keeps chipping.

My rims,

m- my, my rims keep shining.

My rims keep shining,

and my paint keeps chipping.

My rims,

m- my, my rims keep shining.

My rims keep shining,

and my paint keeps chipping.
