This chicken is so good That if I were lost on a deserted island And a rescue boat with destiny's child, The Kardashian's, Charlie's angels, And the pussycat dolls pulled up And they said they had a spot for me but not this chicken, I would let that boat keep on going, And I would stay on that island with this chicken.

- That's a compliment coming from you, the man.
- Okay, I accept.
I am the man.
- No, you're not.
I'm the man.
Just kidding.

- Thank you.
That means a lot.

- It's also quite popular for girls in rehab.
- Really? So when's the last time you were there? - No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I will not have you insult my wife And ask her when she was last in rehab.
It was Tuesday.
[laughter.]
- Oh, man, you are nuts.
You are nuts.
- So where are the kids in school? - Lindsey goes to Meredith Frasier high, And our son Kevin is at curt flannel middle.
- Oh, no, no, no, no.
Devon, you just have to get them into weakly.
- Weakly? - Weakly prep, 7 through 12.
- You know, the station owner, Mr.
Waters, His kids go there, And so do both of the evening anchors'.
- Isn't it hard to get in? - Not for a family like you.
I'll put a good word in with the board.
- Suzanne, all I can tell you is - Ah, I know, it's to die for.
- Like these Greens.
If I was trapped on a desert island With these Greens And a rescue boat with the girls gone wild, The laker girls, and the girl with the dragon tattoo came up And they said, "we have room for you But not the Greens," I - I already know.
I know you would stay on the island with the Greens.
- What the hell are you talking about? No, I'd get on the boat.
What are the odds of a third boat coming by? These Greens are good, but I'm not stupid.
- So you didn't hear any of that? - Hear any of what? - The woman spent the whole night Trying to one-up me.
you just have to get your hair done at royale's.
you just have to get your coffee from Louise's.
when you die, you just have to be buried at Justin's cemetery.
It's to die for.
- I get it.
You don't like her.
But I am still looking into this school.
This could be a real good opportunity for the kids.
- Nick, the kids aren't switching schools.
They're doing fine where they are.
- Are you saying that because you don't like the school Or because you don't like the people? - What's the difference? Those are the people at the school.
- I'm sure there was somebody you hated At the Beyonce concert, but we still went to that.
- Nick, the woman didn't say anything about the school.
All she talked about was who went there.
- Okay, fine.
You don't want do it; I won't push you.
It's just your children's education.
- Fine.
We will look into it.
But I don't like you right now.
- And yet you're still here.
- How many more of these things do I have to wear? - These things are called outfits, And you have 11 more to go.
- Hey.
- Hi.
- How's it going on the child model front? - How's it look like it's going? I mean, look at me.
I look like Chris Brown, the early years.
- Let's go.
- All right.
Baby, this school looks pretty good, right? - Okay, I will admit it.
I was very skeptical at first, but it is a really nice school, And they get 100% of their graduates into college.
- Mm-hmm.
- In my school, they couldn't get 100% Of the class to graduate.
Some of those fools are still there.
- Well, it looks like our chances Of getting into this school are actually pretty good.
- What makes you say that? - Baby, Devon's on the board.
- Why wouldn't he mention that in the first place? - Maybe he was waiting for us to make the first move.
- Hmm.
- Look, all we need to do is fill this out, Get the kids' transcripts, recommendations, Physicals, pictures, and get it into Devon.
Anything else I'm forgetting? - How about telling the kids? - Nah.
- What's wrong with the school I'm in? - Nothing.
It's just that we have to think about your future.
- I think about my future.
I was gonna finish High School, college, Get married, have some kids, But now I'm gonna end up a part-time stripper, Pregnant, on drugs, with a tattoo on my back And a piercing in my lip All because I rebelled against you When you made me change schools.
- Give it a chance.
You haven't even been there.
- I think it's awesome.
Every class has smart boards.
Every kid gets their own laptop.
Plus they have to wear a uniform.
You know what that means? That means I can literally wear The same thing to school every day.
- You still have to wash it.
- Yeah, maybe eventually.
- All the girls there are snobby, And all the guys there are corny.
- You're not going there for the boys.
You're going there for the grades.
- Do you have any idea how girls work? Honey, everything you're saying is true, But next year, you're gonna be a junior, And that's the one that counts the most when it comes to college admission's - Oh, my God.
Their P.
E.
Class is skiing.
They even have a class where you don't have to go to class.
- Whatever.
It's not like I have a choice.
[groans.]
- They have fencing? This school is awesome.
Do you think I can get my own sword? - Mr.
And Mrs.
Kingston-persons, Thank you so much for joining myself And the rest of the board this afternoon.
As the head of the board, I'll be conducting the interview.
If anyone has anything to add, please chime in.
- I'd like to chime in.
I would just like to say that this school is so nice That if my kids were stranded alone on a desert island And all they had was an x-box, another x-box, A flat-screen tv, a box of cell phones, Drake, and no curfew And this school showed up on a ship to pick them up, They would go with this school.
[laughs.]
They would They would go to this school, because it's nice.
What are y'all writing? - Suzanne, let's start with you.
- Uh, first of all, I'd just like to say, Before we get started, he was just kidding.
- Now, it says here you read our school newspaper.
How did that come about? - Well, before we get to that, It says here that you have an annual school trip.
Do you guys go to yellowstone by any chance, and if so Because there's a very real chance That we might encounter a bear Can I bring my sword? - So why do you want to come to weakly? - Can I be honest? - Please do.
- I don't.
My parents are forcing me to come here.
No offense.
I already have friends at my school, And there's this guy that I really like.
His name is Corey, and I wouldn't see him, Because I would be across town.
And I already had to move once when my mom and dad broke up, But I don't want to have to start all over again.
And I don't know about this uniform thing.
I just bought three new pairs of jeans, And they are really cute.
- So when I say a word, Tell me the first word that pops into your mind.
- Got it.
- President.
- Obeezy.
- What? - Obeezy.
You know, like, Kanye West is yeezy, And Lil' Wayne is wheezy, I always thought that if Barack Obama Was a hip-hop artist, People would call him bareezy obeezy.
- Right.
- Left.
- Please tell me you're ing.
- I wish I could.
- So she's supposed to be your friend, But she calls you on a three-way With a guy that you like on the phone? - Lame, right? - Totally.
- I know.
- Yeah, but there's gonna be girls like that Everywhere you go, so why not come to weakly? - I don't know.
I'm still not sure about this whole uniform thing.
- We have free-dress Fridays.
- Hmm.
- Mrs.
Kingston-persons, What would you say your mission is In regards to coming to weakly? - My mission would be to give my children a great education.
I hear the ones here are to die for.
- Mm-hmm.
Mr.
Kingston-persons, what's more important to you, The academic aspect of school or the social aspect? - Both.
There's nothing worse than a brilliant guy With no friends.
Can you say evil genius? - Can you say Facebook? - What? - The inventor of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, The world's youngest billionaire, Was a brilliant college student with no friends.
- So was Osama bin Laden.
- Osama bin Laden, yeah, that's funny.
So you're equating weakly with terrorism.
- No, no, I'm just saying it can go either way.
I mean, like, Stephen and Alec Baldwin, You know, same background, two different dudes.
- You know, the baldwins went to weakly.
- Really? - No.
- [silently.]
- Oh, hey, Gigi.
- Hey, hey.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, where have you been? - Gigi, he had his school interview today, remember? - You know what? His future might be important to you, But his present, it's important to me.

- Look, you know what? They didn't get rejected.
I mean, they're on a wait list.
- Wait for what, till they graduate from another school? Now, you can keep drinking the kool-aid if you want to, But I will not keep putting my kids through this.
- Aww, you watch.
It'll be real good.
You gonna help me with the bags? - Sure.
I'll put it on my wait list.
- Kevin, let's go.
We have a photo shoot in 30 minutes.
- Not so fast.
I've been doing a little research, And I think there's a couple things we need to discuss.
- Okay, well, we can discuss that in the car.
Let's go.
- Did you know that the entire amount of money you paid me Is less than what most male models make in an hour? - They're grown.
You're not union.

- You took advantage of me.
- No, I didn't.
I didn't know anything about those rules.
- You do now.
- So what are you saying? - All I'm saying is, Since we're only halfway through the project And you need the other half done Before you can deliver to your clients, I have what is called a bargaining chip.
- And what exactly do you intend to use this bargaining chip for? - For two new video games in addition to the cash.
- How much are they? - More than $50, less than a lawsuit.
- You cannot sue me.
- Not me, your clients.
- Fine.
Deal, Kevin.
And does your mother know how evil you are? - No, and if you know what's best for you, You'll keep it that way.

They don't need weakly, and obviously, Weakly doesn't need them.
- Nick, I'm gonna t.
You might like it.
You might not.
- Really? - If there was a problem, it wasn't with the children.
I talked to the counselors.
They loved them.
- Then who was the problem with? Me? Oh, there's something wrong with me? - Nick Diesel, let me be honest.
You have a bad attitude.
- I have a bad attitude Because you and your wife brought me and Suzanne in front of the board And acted like you weren't in our house Eating collard Greens and chicken a week earlier.
Look, if you had introduced us to the board Like you wanted us in, we'd be in.
- Nick, wait, wait.
Please, reconsider.
Look, I admit it.
I overdid it.
I'll talk to the board.
- You got a lot of faces, man.
Pick one, and stick with it.

It's to die for.
- [laughs.]
You know, I thought Devon was cool.
- Honey, he's a salesman.
He just sold you.
- Man, you make it sound so dirty.
- Nick, don't feel bad.
You have this tendency to see the best in people.
It's what you do.
I feel like you saw the best in me, even when I didn't see it in myself.
So occasionally, if you have to be hoodwinked, Bamboozled, run amok, played, suckered, Punked, hustled - Are you through? - No, I got a couple more: Carried, dissed, mugged, had, Or just plain turned out - Turned out? It's a school application, not a prison assault.
- Well, next time, If you just listen to me in the first place, You wouldn't be in this position.
- I hate it when you're right.
- Mm.
- And I don't like you right now.
- Mm, and yet you're still here.
- I don't want to talk about it.
- Oh, Kevin, the pictures came out cute.
- I don't want to talk about it, Gigi.
- What's wrong? - Nothing.
Kevin made me look great in front of the client, But now he doesn't want anyone to see the pictures.
- Hey, man, come on, Kev, show us the pictures.
- People are gonna see them anyway when the frames come out.
- Fine, but no video game is worth this.
- Here we go.
- Ohh, baby.
