Quote from Jerome in Everybody Hates Rejection

White Cop: Now, what's very important, also, in the Block Watch program is, if you are away from your house for any extended period of time...
Adult Chris: [v.o.] In Bed-Stuy, that's 12 minutes.
White Cop: ...you must alert the other Block Watch members.
Louise Clarkson: And they will watch your property.
White Cop: Correct. Nicely done. All right, like let's say one of you is on your way to Florida...
Rochelle: Florida?
Adult Chris: [v.o.] The closest my family came to Florida, was watching Esther Rolle on Good Times.
Vanessa: Now I get it. Then the rest of us can watch out for their house.
Jerome: I'll take the night shift.
