The Nutty Professor Page #4

Synopsis: Brilliant and obese scientist Sherman Klump invents a miraculous weight-loss solution. After a date with chemistry student Carla Purty goes badly, a depressed Klump tries the solution on himself. Though he instantly loses 250 pounds, the side effects include a second personality: an obnoxiously self-assertive braggart who calls himself Buddy Love. Buddy proves to be more popular than Sherman, but his arrogance and bad behavior quickly spiral out of control.

- Who that called my name?

- Yeah, I called you if your name is-

Keep insulting me.

I'll toss this between

the crack of your ass.

- I can go all night.

- I hope you fart

'til your a**hole falls out.

Ohh, my baby too!

- Oops. Now see what you made me do?

Goddamn it,

I messed up my pants.

- Damn, Daddy. You rotten.

- You got to clean 'em yourself!

Oh, Lord, this has been a fabulous,

wonderful, fabulous evening.

Look. Them dogs done

tore up my garbage.

- Cletus, the dog's ripped open

the garbage again!

- Shoot the damn dog!

- I'm not shootin' no dog!

- I'm tryin'

to watch Roseanne!

- Thanks for dinner, Mama.

- Sherman, what's wrong with you?

Baby, you still worried

about what your father said in there?

Oh, son, listen to me.

You are special.

When the good Lord made you,

he made you beautiful inside and out.

You can do anything, Sherman.

All you got to do is believe

in yourself and you can do anything.

You're so handsome.

Gimme some sugar.

Love you, Mama.

Love you too, baby.

Nighty-night. Ohh, my baby.

Sherman, Sherman, Sherman.

Fabulous.

Cletus, come clean

this garbage up!

- I'm watchin' TV!

- Get your lazy ass up.

- Mind your own damn business!

- You lazy mother-

Professor?

Oh. Hi, C-

Uh, Miss Purty, um-

You caught me in the middle

of a little step aerobics

I was doin' out here.

Ninety-eight, ninety-nine,

one hundred.

I looked your address up

in the faculty directory.

I hope you don't mind.

- No, not at all.

What can I do for you?

- Oh, well, I was, uh-

I was, um-

I was wonderin' if-

one night if, uh-

when you weren't busy-

You get a little hungry,

you might want to, you know, uh-

If you planned on going out

to get somethin' anyway,

on an occasion like that,

you don't wanna

do that alone, so-

Professor, are you

asking me out on a date?

Yes. Yes, I am.

I'd love to.

- Really?

- Yes.

That's fantastic!

We can go any place

you wanna go.

Just name it.

We'll go there.

- Uh, there's a place my students

go to called The Scream?

- The Scream?

- I mean, if that's too-

- Oh, no, no, no. I love to scream.

Who-o-o-oa!

- Screaming's good for you.

Cleans the epiglottis.

Get all the phlegm

and mucus down.

That's disgusting.

- Just tell me what night.

- How's Friday?

Friday night's perfect.

The best night of the week.

Friday night at 8:00.

- Friday night at 8:00.

- Great. I'll see you Friday night.

We'll go to The Scream.

It'll be a scream at The Scream.

- All right, Professor,

I'll see you then.

- Good night, Miss Purty.

Good night.

Yes!

Mmm. Yeah, Friday night

at The Scream.

Gonna scream-

Friday night

Friday, Friday, Friday

Friday night

Friday, Friday, Friday
