Greg: Hey, Chris.
Chris: Hey, Greg.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] If only Keisha liked me this much.
Chris: Why you all up on me?
Greg: Look, Raymond told Caruso he couldn't get near you. So, can I stick to you close for a while?
Chris: Yeah, but can a brother get some space?
Greg: Oh, yeah. All right.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] After I helped Drew with his math, his score changed by a whole grade.
Rochelle: A "D"? Chris, he got a "C" before. I thought I told you to help him.
Chris: I did.
[flashback:]
Chris: So, you move the decimal point over two places.
Drew: [holding two differently-laced sneakers] Hey, which one you like better? The spider web or the step ladder?

Rochelle: Julius, if Drew's grades keep dropping, he's going to get kicked out of school. And then, he's going to get hooked on crack. And then, the next thing you know, we'll be walking in here without a stick of furniture. Now, do you want to pay for a tutor or do you want to pay for new furniture?
Julius: How much is it going to cost?
Rochelle: Not a lot. I'll get Keisha. [Chris gives a panicked look to camera]
Julius: Who's Keisha?
Rochelle: You know Sheila. [Julius gives a panicked look to camera] It's her daughter.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] Couldn't risk being funky. I'm the reason for the hole in the ozone layer.

Sheila: Hey, Julius.
Julius: Uh, Rochelle's not here.
Sheila: No. Keisha left her jacket here. You mind if I come in and look?
Julius: Nah, I'll get it. [closes door]
Adult Chris: [v.o.] Sheila made my dad nervous. Since there weren't a lot of men around, women on the block were always coming around when my mother wasn't home.
[montage:]
Woman #1: Did I leave my house keys?
Woman #2: Did I leave my frying pan?
Woman #3: Did I leave my sweater here?
Julius: You have never been here!
Woman #3: Can't blame a sister for trying.
Julius: Try this. [closes door]

Adult Chris: [v.o.] My father didn't like other women in the house for the same reason he didn't like guns in the house: even with the safety on, somebody could get killed.

Drew: I'm sorry about that girl, Teisha.
Chris: Keisha. Her name's Keisha.
Drew: Yeah, Keisha. I didn't know you liked her like that.
Chris: It's nothing. Just forget about it.
Drew: I know how you feel. I remember this one time when I was six, man, this girl broke my heart, wouldn't give me the time of day.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] Can you believe this? I'm being given advice about women by my little brother.
Drew: Don't worry. You'll be all right. Oh. If you want, I could hook you up with Shanice.
Chris: Shanice? She's 16.
Drew: She'll make all about Kiki.
Chris: Keisha. Her name's Keisha.
Drew: Right. Keisha.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] I always regretted that I never tried Shanice.

Julius: Hey, son. Want a soda?
Chris: Dad, what do you do when you're trying not to like somebody, but you can't get them off your mind?
Julius: Chris, we can't talk about this!
Chris: Why not?
Julius: Look, Chris, sometimes things ain't always what they look like. I mean, just because you might think about somebody, doesn't mean anything's going to happen. You know, it's... It's just... It's innocent. But you can't tell nobody. You just keep your mouth shut. And keep your distance.
Chris: But she lives right next door.
Julius: Don't you think I know that? What you want me to do, move? Uh... It's nothing. Forget it. Drink your soda.
Chris: Well, what if she decides to tutor Drew again?
Julius: Well, you just got to... Drew?
Chris: Yeah.
Julius: Who are we talking about?
Chris: Keisha.
Julius: Oh. Oh! Oh, Keisha! Keisha. Hey, man, look. Chris, you just have to focus on other things, okay? I mean, you know, it'll take a little time. You'll meet some more girls. She's just the first one. Is she the first one?
Chris: Kind of.
Julius: This is good.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] Some days, I thought everyone I saw was Keisha. [a pregnant woman walks by] I'm glad that wasn't her. Well, at least I hope that wasn't her. Keisha?
Old Woman: You ain't taking my check!
[After the old woman pepper sprays Chris, he stumbles into the street]
Chris: [screams] What check? What was she thinking?
Man: Get out of the street, fool! Get out of the street, fool!
[Chris jumps out of the way, onto the hood of a parked car]
Man: Get off of my car, fool!
Adult Chris: [v.o.] I got to get this girl off my mind.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] Sheila gave my mother compliments and my mother loved compliments.
Sheila: Oh, girl, I love those shoes.
Rochelle: They're all leather.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] No, they aren't.
