Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
[to Riley] Make sure you pee before we leave. I ain't going to miss my movie going to the bathroom with you. I'mma let you go in there by yourself and get molested by a nasty white man. [to Huey] What's wrong with you?

Huey Freeman:
I don't wanna go to the movies.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Why not?

Huey Freeman:
I don't ever wanna go to the movies with you again. Not after what happened last time.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
What happened last time?

Huey Freeman:
We got arrested... and shot at.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Haa racism.

Jazmine Dubois:
Daddy said I can go the movies, but he said I'm not allowed to see soul plane.

Huey Freeman:
Good, you don't wanna go to the movies with him. He's crazy.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Hush! You can't see soul plane? Why, lil baby?

Jazmine Dubois:
Because of the types of stereos or something.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Types of stereos? Oh, no no no, lil baby doll. This is a good theater. They have THX. [hums]

Huey Freeman:
She means stereotypes.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Stereotypes? In soul plane? That's nonsense. Say how about we tell your daddy we saw something else. Hm?

Jazmine Dubois:
[gasps] You mean, lie?

Huey Freeman:
That really doesn't seem to be a good idea.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Hush boy. You know, it's okay to break the rules every once and a while. I won't tell if you won't.

Jazmine Dubois:
Okay. [laughs]

Huey Freeman:
[narrating] Sometimes I think Granddad may be a bad influence.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Hey Riley, don't forget the camcorder. [outside] Now the first soul plane was funny.

Huey Freeman:
About as funny as a lynching.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Hush boy, you ain't even see it.

Huey Freeman:
I never seen a lynching either, but I know they're not funny.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
See! Shows what you know. I've seen funny lynchings.

President Barack Obama:
My fellow Americans, uh, good afternoon. I'd like to start off by thanking all of you out there, uh, who have called and written letters about the safety of the First Family. You'll be happy to know that Michelle, Sasha, Malia, myself and Bo are all fine.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Don't nobody care about *you*, man! Tell us everything gonna be okay for *us*!

President Barack Obama:
Everything is going to be okay... *for us*. We are currently in our very own super-secret underground bunker with enough food and water and entertainment to last several lifetimes. But I'm here tonight to talk about *you*. In times of crisis, Americans pull together. And what's going to get us through this difficult time? Sharing.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
*Sharing?*

President Barack Obama:
Lending a helping hand to a neighbor in their hour of need.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
No, f*** a neighbor! What we need is a *cure*!

President Barack Obama:
Unfortunately, there is no cure for the pandemic we now face. But we do have an even more powerful weapon - compassion for our fellow man.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
No! F*** compassion for our fellow man!

President Barack Obama:
In conclusion, I want to say that we are all in for some tough times ahead, and when I say "we," I mean "you." But Michelle, Sasha, Malia, myself and Bo are going to be right here, rooting for you all the way. Goodnight, and God bless you, and may God bless the United States of America.

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
...We all gonna die!

Uncle Ruckus:
People say to me 'Ruckus'. I say 'Huh, who said that?' They say 'How do I make it to White Heaven?' Well, start by askin' yourself 'How is my relationship with the white man?' Do you celebrate the white man's goodness every day? Do you stop and thank the white man for the food you eat and the clothes you wear? Huh? Well, if you don't, you goin' to Hell. Now, I want everybody who isn't white to turn to a white person and say 'Thank you'.

Tom Dubois:
[Tom puts his hand on a white man's shoulder] Thank you. Thank you so much.

Uncle Ruckus:
Well, there are those of you who say I'm a racist. There are those of you who say I'm wrong for hatin' niggas. Well, I call y'all ALL hypocrites! 'Cause each and every one of you can name ten niggas you hate right now if you had to!

Tom Dubois:
I never thought about it like that. There's Tyrone... Leon... Oh! Eddie!

Uncle Ruckus:
You don't have to admit it. That's OK. 'Cause I know you done already counted off five niggas in yo' head! You're like 'I hate that nigga Jamal! Oh, I hate Otis! I can't stand Usher!'

Tom Dubois:
Oh my God, he's right! I hate Usher, too!

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
What?

Tom Dubois:
He's right. I think I hate black people!

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
[whispering] Tom, stop being stupid!

Tom Dubois:
No, I think I hate 'em all. I don't like Puffy! I don't like Kobe! I don't like... [stands up] I don't like any of 'em!

Robert 'Granddad' Freeman:
Tom, snap out of it! Come on, we're leaving. [stands up]

Uncle Ruckus:
That's right! Somebody out there is feelin' the spirit!

Tom Dubois:
I am! I am! I feel it!

Uncle Ruckus:
If you black of skin and full of sin, come forward so I may lay my hands on you. [slaps a black man] Black be gone! [slaps black woman] Praise White Jesus! [slaps another black man] Now, I want everybody to find the nearest black man and lay hands on him. But first, make sure your hand is balled up in a fist so you can beat the black outta his soul. God smiles when you hate blackness so you beat that darkie in the name of the Almighty! Hallelujah! [the whole congregation starts beating each other. Granddad pulls Tom away from the melee] That's right! Ronald Regan said 'Beat a nigga's ass and go to Heaven.' God is good! Now, let us pray. Lord, I have spent my whole life hatin' you for makin' me black. And now I see I must hate myself and all those like me. And cause them misery just like your servant, Ronald Reagan did. And if any of my words don't come directly from the Almighty God himself, then may I be struck by lightning right this very instant! Halle- [Ruckus is struck by lightning] AAAAHHHHHHH!
