Julius: Why are you staring at my feet?
Adult Chris: [v.o.] She loves your bunions.
Rochelle: I'm just trying to be close to you. I never get a chance to see you anymore. I barely even remember what you look like. And I get lonely.
Julius: I know, but I have to go to work so you can either be lonely in this house or together in the streets.
Rochelle: That's it?
Julius: That's what?
Rochelle: I'm talkin' about you, and you're talking about this house. I can't watch TV with this house. I can't talk to this house about my day. I can't ask this house to rub my feet! When I hear a noise downstairs in the middle of the night, I can't ask this house to go downstairs and see what it is! Julius, I did not marry this house.
I married a man!
Adult Chris: [v.o.] But when they leave the man, they always end up with a house.
Julius: I wasn't saying that.
Rochelle: That's okay. You just keep on workin', but I'm not gonna sit here and wait to watch you tie your shoes.
Adult Chris: [v.o.] My father had two full-time jobs, three if you count my mother.

Adult Chris: [v.o.] While my mother was shaking with emotion, Tonya was shaking down Drew.
Tonya: So how much are you charging them?
Drew: What are you talking about?
Tonya: I'm talking about you and your nasty friends peeping on that lady.
Drew: Shut up. Keep your voice down.
Tonya: I figure you're charging them two dollars a head. I want half.
Drew: I'm not giving you a dime because if you tell I was looking, I'm going to tell Mama about the liquor and cigarettes you've been hiding in your room.
Tonya: I didn't hide any liquor or cigarettes in my room.
Drew: Oh, you didn't? Maybe it was me.

Ms. Hutchins: Oh! My God! I am so sorry. I didn't know. I-- I am so... Oh, my God, I don't know what you must think of me. I am so... Well... Well, if Julius wasn't the one looking at me, then who was it?
[When Rochelle opens Ms. Hutchin's drapes, Drew and his friends scream. Rochelle can be seen shouting at them from across the street.]
James: When is she gonna stop screaming and start stripping?
Drew: Man, that's my mom!
James: I know.
