# While strolling along life's highway # Oh, there rose a mighty storm # I heard a voice from heaven saying # You're standing out there alone # And I thought about King Jesus # And I folded up in my heart # Then I started up for heaven # Oh # And I stepped into the safety zone # Oh... I'm standing in the safety zone... # 'Everyone has their path in life, and this is more or less where mine started.' 'My name is Norbit Albert Rice, and I was an orphan.' 'I like to think my parents loved me very much, but just didn't have the means to properly care for me.' 'I can see them researching all of the orphanages in the area, agonising over their choices, trying to make sure their precious little boy was raised in the perfect environment.' (TYRES SCREECH) # ..in the safety zone... # Oh! Ling Ling! Someone left another one! Coyotes, go! Get! Back! Back, coyotes! Ah! Get outta here! You not eat another baby. Oh, crap. Another black one. Can't give these away. You ugly black one, too. You be here long time. Nobody will say, "Give me the ugly, black one." You very ugly baby! The ugliest baby I ever seen! 'A lot of people think that orphanages are cold and scary, but the Golden Wonton was a great place to grow up.' 'We had everything normal children had.' 'Pets...' (CLEAVER BANGS) Play with that! '..a big backyard, and lots of kids to play with.' Ling Ling! The children got in MSG barrel! Now all their hair gonna fall out again! You stupid orphan! Nobody want a bald orphan! Norbit, how you find family with no hair? Nobody want a bald Norbit! What the hell wrong with the children here? 'Mr Wong was a very interesting man.' 'In addition to his love for children and preparation of fine Asian cuisine, he had a real passion for old-time whaling.' It's a whale, ho! (CHILDREN GRUNT) Die, you son-of-a...! (GASPS) Bingo! Right in the blow hole! (ALL SCREAM) Norbit, where you go? 'After Marvin Browning got lost downtown for a couple of weeks, the orphanage started using a buddy system.' Go, Norbit! 'My buddy was little Kate.' Go, Norbit! Go, Norbit! Agh! (CRASHING) Ow... That's OK. You're doing good. 'Kate and I were always together, playing checkers...' Aw, man... Yes! "(SCREAMING ON TV)" '..watching scary movies.' 'Why, we even pooped together.' 'And then one day, Kate and I decided that we should tie the knot.' 'We got married under the great big oak tree.' I now pronounce you my wife. And I pronounce you my husband. It's watermelon. Yours is green apple. I think it's time for us to kiss now. (BOTH) Ew! 'And we lived happily ever after...' (BOTH GIGGLE) '..for about two weeks until she got adopted.' (MUFFLED) Bye, Norbit. 'I didn't do too much bike riding after that.' 'When Kate left, there was an odd number of kids at the orphanage, so I was buddyless for a while.' 'And sometimes I'd get a little sad.' 'But I never lost hope. I knew that someday I'd find another somebody to share my life with.' 'All I had to do was just be patient.' (BOTH GRUNT) What'd you do that for? Because we felt like it. (BOTH) What are you gonna do about it? Loser. Ow! Stop it. Leave him alone. (BOTH) Says who? Who are you? Rasputia. What's your name? Norbit. Norbit? That's a stupid name! Why'd you beat those boys up? To protect you. (SOFTLY) You got a girlfriend, Nesbit? Er, Norbit. No. Well, you do now! Get your ass up and hold my hand. OK. How you doing? Argh! 'Everything changed once I had Rasputia as my girlfriend.' 'We took care of each other.' Argh! 'Other kids started to respect me.' I'll take... Norbit. (ALL GROAN) Come on! 'And because of Rasputia, for the first time in my life, I had a real family.' 'Rasputia had three brothers. Big Black Jack. He was the oldest.' Leg. 'Then, there was Blue.' Breastses. 'And Earl.' 'He was the baby.' Wing. 'They sure loved their little sister, and so they treated me like one of their own.' Here you go, Norbit. I saved the best piece for you. What's that? Turkey ass. Eat up, sucker. (ALL LAUGH) Bon appetitty! (LAUGHS) 'The Latimores had a reputation for being the meanest, nastiest people in town, but that's just because folks didn't know 'em.' 'They were actually very nice, hard-working people.' 'They ran the local construction company, and recently, responding to the needs of the community...' Yo, Morris. '..had opened a little security business.' 'It was a surprisingly popular service among the local vendors.' Hey, you don't shake me down! I'm Italiano! I shake you down! Is that right? Yes. Get his ass in here. I'm in. 'As time passed, Rasputia and I got closer and closer... (BELL) '..in high school...' '..and as adults.' 'I started work as a bookkeeper in her family's business.' (DOOR SLAMS) (DOOR OPENS) I'm expecting some important calls today, Norbit, when you answer the phone, try and sound white. 'It was like everything was finally coming together.' Yes. 'Of course, it was only natural that Rasputia and I would take the next step in our relationship.' I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride. (CLEARS THROAT) (EXCLAIMS IN DISGUST) Wow... (GRUNTS) Open your mouth. (ALL GROAN) (ALL LAUGH) Go, Rasputia! 'It was a storybook wedding, the beginning of a brand-new chapter.' 'I knew I would never be lonely again. I had found my place in the world.' Poor Norbit. Man... Back when I was in the game, I used to tell my hoes, "Hoes, ain't no man gonna pay for the cow if he can get the milk for free." You ain't got to worry about this brother buying the milk, cos he just bought the whole damn cow. That's a special cow, too. That must be where buttermilk come from. Sing that shit, girl! Them are not dimples but potholes in her ass. An Escalade in a wedding dress. Oh... It a horror show. Norbit! What a woman you got. Hi, fellas. We're all jealous, right, boys? Oh, yeah. Way jealous. Wish I had one like that. Norbit, let me talk to you for a second. Look,... ..just so we clear. If you ever hurt my sister in any way, make her cry, even make her sad one time, I'm coming at you with razor blades and lemon juice. You hear me? I'm talking pain, boy, searing, mind-numbing pain. I understand. You understand me? (CHOKES) Yes, yes, yes. Welcome to the family. (WHIMPERS) Thank you. (WHINES) Hey! Somebody is take a big hunk out of my cake! (GASPING) What y'all looking at? I ain't had no cake. You better mind your damn business. (FEEDBACK WHINE) (CLEARS THROAT) Hey! Everyone! I am Mr Wong. I am best man in wedding. I feel it my place to say something, er, make a toast to bride and groom, tell story about Norbit. I like Norbit father. I raise Norbit. He like my own child. And I want to say that I very, very confused, Norbit, that you,... ..you marry Latimore. I don't understand it, because when you was a little boy, you say, "One day I find the girl of my dreams". And then you marry a gorilla. (LAUGHTER) I joke, I joke, I joke. Why you not know joke when you hear joke? You wanna make fight at wedding? Cool off, before I have to bust somebody ass in here. OK... When Norbit just little boy, he like to always run all over place naked. Always naked. (LAUGHTER) And Norbit, when he was just little boy, had a pee-pee the size of an egg roll. (LAUGHTER) You know, Norbit. That's true. And one day, down by creek, Norbit run around naked and poisonous snake jump up and bite Norbit right on ass. Very close to hole. (LAUGHTER) Norbit pass out. I think Norbit is dead. I go to check the boy pulse. He still alive. He still alive! "OK," I say, "I must do something to save child." So I start to think, "Do I suck poison out of Norbit's ass, or do I let him die?" I do the most responsible thing. I say, "Hell to the no!" "Norbit is out of here!" "Because it is long time in hell before Wong suck poison out of another man's ass." (ALL LAUGH) (DRUM ROLL / CYMBAL CLASH) But strange, mystical thing happen. Even though poison is in Norbit, he not die. Norbit get stronger and stronger. That why I know, Norbit, deep down inside, you very, very strong. You strong like warrior. That's why I say to you, Norbit, you can survive anything. Even... So I say to everyone here, and to Norbit, I wish you much happiness and peace and love, and lots of bananas for your new gorilla! (GASPS) I only kidding. To Norbit and Rasputia. Oh, Norbit, you know what would be so romantic? If you'd carry me over the threshold like a little chocolate drop. Be delicate, now. (GROANS) (GASPS) Put your back into it. (GRUNTS) Come on, now. Be a man. You ain't no man. Pathetic! Rasputia, I know we're both nervous because we've never done this before, but we can take our time, darling. (RUBBER SQUEAKS) In sweet time... Agh! Argh...! 'Rasputia was so full of love.' (BELLS JINGLE) Merry Christmas! (GROANS) Ho, ho, ho... 'It was a love that sustained us through the years.' Halt! (WHIMPERS) 187 - Officer down. 'And it's still going strong.' Happy Presidents' Day! God bless America. 'And so, we began our life together, like any other happily-married couple.' Morning, Rasputia! (DOG BARKS) "Morning, Rasputia," my ass! Do something about that dog. I ain't gonna be terrorised on my property! I'll purchase a pellet rifle and give him something to bark about. Messing round with you, now I'll be late for dance class. (HORN HONKS) (HORN HONKS) God damn it, Norbit! How many times I got to tell you, when you drive my car, don't adjust my seat! I haven't touched it. Then, why is it up so damn far? It looks like it's back as far as it goes, Rasputia. No, you moved it, cos when I inhale, my titty make the horn honk. Listen. (HORN HONKS) You see that? (HORN HONKS) That ain't right. (HORN HONKS) I hear it. That scientifically proves that you was adjusting my seat! That's not science. It is. Now just let it go. Not science. Let it go. I'm just... I said it was science, God damn it. Why you think I want to sell Golden Wonton Restaurant? I make a lot of money here. Every man got a price. We think this might be yours. And here... is my counter offer. Yeah! Excuse me. All right, it's go time! Haw! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! I not like rest of town people. I not intimidated by Latimore. You wrong, Wong. Relax, man. Be cool with that thing, Mr Wong. Ling Ling, get my pistol! That dude is crazy! Let's get the hell out of here! I never sell to Latimore! Ever! Ever! (SHRIEKS) All right! Y'all ready, class? (WHOOPING) Are y'all ready? We gonna perforate! We gonna penetrate! We gonna percolate! We gonna palpitate! All because we wanna master the bate, the art of power-tap the fat! Come on, and power-tap the fat. Take that, power-tap the fat. Get your skinny ass out of my way. One, two, three, four. I stepped in poo, better wipe it off. One, two, three, four. I stepped in poo, better wipe it off. One, two, three, four. Ride the horse. Ride the horse! Keep bucking, y'all! (SHRIEKS) Keep bucking! And slide! Click-clackety-clack! Slide! Click-clackety-clack!

Now, pump, pump, pump, pump, pump me up! And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve. And stretch it out. Work your whole bicuspids area, your whole bilaterals and bisexuals. Good. Excuse me, Buster? I think I need a little adjustment over here. Look at you, looking like the Great Pumpkin, girl. Trick or treat. What's going on? I was born with a trick hip and it made me real bendy. See, I'm just like liquorice. Look. Goddamn, girl, that look like the harvest moon. Turn a brother to a werewolf. (HOWLS) You just need to stop. Do you do any private lessons? Erm, I could do private lessons if you could do me a little favour. What's that? Talk to your brothers about funding my little video tape. Oh! I'm trying to make power-tap multi-national. I'm trying to be like Billy Blanks, but double the money and half the Blank. That's a good idea. Maybe I will, maybe I will. But first I get that private lesson. OK. (WHISPERS) Call me, girl. (WHISPERS) I'll call you. I'll be your private dancer. Must be Saturday. Why is that? Because here come Norbit, right on schedule. Mmm-hmm. Almost set your watch to him. Hey, Pope Sweet Jesus and Lord Have Mercy. How you guys doing, fellas? Business is good. Business is good. It's almost like the good old days. What do you mean? The good old days, man, back when we was pimping, Norby! You know. You guys used to pimp? "Used to"! That's a violation. Still pimping. Once a pimp, always a pimp. Always. Boss player. Forever. Rasputia sent me down here to get the usual. You guys are open, right? Always open. Take yourself in there. We'll stack that up for you. "(RAP MUSIC)" Moniqua! Yes, Daddy. Get King Kong three large buckets, extra sauce? Don't trim the fat. Please don't trim that fat. She will kill me. Norbit, can I interest you in some new shoes, maybe a haircut? How about a bath or a sink? Hey, don't tell me you guys bought the bath store, too? Beds, bitches, and beyond! Sound like money to me. No, thanks, guys. I got to go do a puppet show for the kids at the orphanage. The orphanage? It's a nice thing you do for them. Why don't you take these little tater puffs over there? Oh, that's great, guys. That's sweet. My puppets! I forgot my puppets! I got to go. I got to go, guys. His puppets? He ain't got puppets. What's Rasputia doing home so early? 'Sputia? Hey...

I'm Buster "Move" Perkin. How you doing? Your wife was just talking about you. She love you. You're Rasputia's tap-dance teacher. Man, actually, I'm her power-tap guru. I was just here giving her a little tap lesson. But you're naked. Oh... That's so she can see the muscle groups as I go through the routines. See? You can't see that with a turtleneck. And you have an... Oh, man, I'm just real passionate about dance. You can say the word "dance" and he just jump up. Dance! See? See that there? 'Sputia? Norbit, Buster's a guest in our home. How dare you insinuate something like that? Yeah, Orbit! How dare you insinuate something such like that! You know, I am actually offended by your accusisation, you understand? And rather than sit here and have a belligerent confrontation with you, cos I am a God-fearing man, I'm-a do like Jesus H Christ would do in a situation such as such and I'm gonna turn the other cheek. Amen. (DOOR CLOSES) You happy now? Rasputia, you cheated on me! I told your ass ain't nothing happened. The next time you say so, I'll knock your teeth out your mouth. Rasputia, we took vows. I'm your husband. (TYRES SCREECH) Rasputia, we took vows, and you cheated on me! It never happened! Yes, it did! And that makes you the queen of whores! Gah! (GASPS) (SQUEALS) Hey, Norbit! (CAR HORN) Run for your lives! (GIRLS SCREAM) Oh, sweet Moses! Oh, my God! Come here! Come here! Come here to me! No! Leave me alone! You ain't nothing but a goddamn coward! Saddle tramp! (PANTS) That's what your stupid black ass gets! I hope you broke your ass! Since you feel like running, Norbit, why don't you run your ass down to the Rib Shack and get me a short stack of ribs? Extra hot sauce. All this setting you straight done got me famished. # Dum-dee, dum, dum, dum # I'm Little Red Riding Goose, walking through the forest, minding my own business, when all at once... Hello. Who are you? I'm the big, bad pig of the forest. My, what big eyes you have, Pig. The better to see you with, Goose. And my, what a big nose you have, Pig. The better to smell them scrumptious goodies you got in your basket. Hey, let me take a look in there. (CHILDREN LAUGH) Oh, no, you don't. You're gonna try to steal my food. No, I won't steal your food. Don't let that pig push you around, Goose. Yeah, I'm tired of you pushing me around! I'm tired of playing with your ass. You got ribs in that basket. Give them up smooth or I'm gonna break my hoof off in your goose ass. Get off of your lazy behind and go down to get your own ribs! Why don't you call Buster and tell him to come over and power-tap you? As well as being the pig of the forest, you're a saddle tramp, bitch pig... Norbit! What you doing? This supposed to be a children's show. This remind me of Chinese snuff film I once co-star in. I'm sorry. I got a little carried away. (CHILDREN LAUGH) Wow, Norbit, that was some puppet show. Oh, come on. You don't remember me? Kate... (CHUCKLES) Kate! Come here! Kate! Kate! Oh, God! I can't believe it! Kate... Well, can I have a hug? (GASPS) Norbit... It just like old times. Maybe you two go take poop together. This place has not changed at all. Oh, yeah. Some of this furniture's even come back in style. (LAUGHS) So, how long are you gonna be visiting for? No, I'm not visiting. I'm moving back. Really? Wow. I sold my clothing business in Atlanta, and I'm going to use the money to buy the orphanage. What? Mmm-hmm. Mr Wong's getting older. He wants to go whaling, so... You know, it's always been my dream to come back here and take over. Oh, that's great. Oh,... Norbit,... look. That's the tree we got married under. (CHUCKLES) You know, I've still got my ring. I ate mine. I missed you so much when you left. I missed you, too. That's my car. Oh, we didn't really get a chance to catch up much.

Hey, Sam, happy Tuesday. Norbit! Norbit! Hey, Kate. Hi. Come on, I got us a table. Great. I've been looking forward to this all week. Good. Hey! Hey. Who's he? Norbit, this is my fiance, Deion Hughes. How you doing, my man? Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit. This is your fiance? Yes, sir. I was just telling Deion that you and I were buddy partners at the orphanage. Now she and I are buddy partners. Shame on you, man, letting a girl go like this. I feel for you. (LAUGHS) Deion's got all this experience in real estate, so he's going to help me buy the orphanage, Norbit. It's so exciting! Slow down. We're just out here scouting it out. This is her nest egg. I don't want her making any hasty decisions that she might regret. She worked too hard for this money, man, you know what I mean? Deion, you take such good care of me, baby. It's my job... Stop it. OK? (SMOOCHING) - (SIGHS) Don't you just love Tuesdays? Lloyd, just tell me why it has to hurt so GD much. (BARKS) What's the matter, boy? You sensing an earthquake or some other sort of natural disaster? (DOG CONTINUES BARKING) Oh. That's just my,... ..my wife. (RASPUTIA SNORES) (SIGHS) A man needs his own space. Oh... Finally! For the love of Cain! (SNORES) Oh! Moses! I'll see you suckers tomorrow at the picnic! (HORN HONKS) How many times I got to tell you, don't be messing with my car seat! Nobody touched your old, stupid seat. How's it's mushed up like this? You've been eating so much lately, there's a strong possibility that... ..the car is shrinking. The car is being smaller. Yeah, you might be right. It's been raining a lot lately. All this moist weather. That'll make it shrink. This weather's so moist. How YOU doing! (SINGS WITH RADIO) # Don't you wish your girlfriend was hot like me? # Don't you wish your girlfriend was a freak like me? # Don't ya? # Ooh, look at that dog over there, eyeballing me. (TYRES SCREECH) Rasputia, what are you doing? Shut up! Hey, slow down! You're gonna hit him! I got you now! I got you now! Stop it! I'm gonna get ya! Rasputia, don't! No, no, no-o-o! Agh! (WHINING) (LAUGHS) I know what that sound means! "Bark"! How YOU doin'! Lloyd... Enough is enough. Where do you think you're going? Lloyd's in hospital because of you! I put his little dog ass in the hospital. I'd have put it in the morgue if you didn't mess with my car seat and threw off my driving skills! Rasputia, you are a mean, selfish, cold, heartless woman and I'm leaving you! You leaving me? Yes! Well, where the hell you think you're going, big shot? You got no money or family! It's all in my name, the car, the house... You ain't nothing and won't ever be nothing without me, Norbit! You just can't leave! I'm with child! With child? Oh, yes, Norbit, can't you tell?

(SIGHS) I wanna be a ho. How do I apply? Please, Lord Jesus, help me! Look, look, tickets! Hey, tickets, tickets. Let me go! Let me go! Line up with your buddy. You got one, sweetie. Can we go on the jumper? You go. Baby, you know I love you, I love these kids, but I don't think buying an orphanage is the right move financially right now. This is not a financial decision, Deion. (PHONE RINGS) I thought you understood that, baby. I do, baby. This is the business call... Very important. Let's talk about it later. You're not going to stay? No. Very important. Here. (PHONE RINGS) Hello? It's never a bad time for you. (LAUGHS) Stop it! Norbit! Hey. Hi. Hey. I didn't know you were gonna be here. Oh, yeah. Hey, you know, I just saw Deion leaving. Uh-huh. He had some business to take care of. Oh... So, who are you here with? My wife. Oh... Norbit, I didn't know you were married. (CHUCKLES) Yeah... Well, that's wonderful, really. Thank you so much. So, where is she? Right over there in the print outfit. The one talking to the girl, by the bench? No, the one sucking the jelly out of them donuts. (SLURPS) Oh, yeah... She's... pretty.

Rasputia's waiting for me. Come on, dance with us. No, I shouldn't... Don't think I won't kill a child. I'll kill in front of everybody! Little street urchins. (TAUNTS IN SING-SONG) That's it. Now it's time to bring the pain! (GASPS / SCREAMS) (SCREAMS) Dance, Norbit, dance! Come on! My hat! (GIRLS SCREAM) She'd better move, cos my prayer is for a Cadillac. (HISSING) You little bastards.

Hey, buddy partner. Hi, Kate. Hi, nice to see you. How you doing? I'm good, but how about you and your head? Oh, I'm doing better. The doctor said if it weren't for my hard Afro, it could have killed me. Oh... (BEEPING GETS FASTER) Are you sure you're OK, Norbit? That sounds kind of fast. Oh, well, they're doing some tests. They're kind of monitoring me. I don't know about this stuff, but 110 beats per minute, that's kind of high. 120... (GASPS) Oh, my goodness, 130! Yeah, maybe the machine's broke. I'm just gonna take these off. Argh! (CONSTANT BLEEP) Ow! Ow! Argh! (CAR LOCK BEEPS) You Deion Hughes? Who's asking? Oh! We the Latimores. Yeah. Latimore Construction. And we run this town. Your woman said y'all are buying the orphanage. Kate has her plans and I have mine. It looks like the only plans you got, my man, is leaving. I don't want no damn orphans. I got kids of my own I ain't bringing up. So, you was just hustling her? Break it to her gentle for me. I'm out! Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up, player. I think you missing the flow here. That orphanage she buying, that's a huge property, outside of town, zoned commercial, even got a liquor licence. Interesting. It's a perfect place for a titty bar. Did you say "titty bar"? We got it all worked out. We gonna call it Nipplopolis. Nipplopolis... That shit got a ring to it, don't it? We talking about overpriced, watered-down alcohol and fake t-ig old b-itties in abundance. Ain't gonna be nothing but tax-free, under-the-table, pure cash money. All you got to do is swing us the deal and we make you partner. And what about Kate? If you marry her, it's as much yours as hers. Norbit, I really want you to be a part of the orphanage. The kids are crazy about you. They're good kids. I'm taking them bike riding tomorrow, by the lake. Why don't you come? I don't know if I could go for a bike ride. I never... I didn't really know how, the... I can't ride a bike... still. You never learned? What? Well, you left, you know, and there was nobody there to teach me. And Wong don't ride. OK, we'll do something else. Erm, the water park. The kids have been begging me to take them. Oh, I don't know. Come on, it's a Saturday. You don't have to work. Yeah, I know, but it's the park and it's watery, and there's a potential hell to pay if I were to be there, maybe... Hey, what are you doing with those things, Kate? Well, I'm just going to have to shock you till you say yes. Hey, come on, Kate, don't play with those. Those things are plugged in. Clear... No, no clear. No clear. Stop, Kate. Stop, Kate. Come on. "Yes, yes, yes". Yes, yes, yes, yes! OK, stop. Nurse! (SIGHS) Voila. Oh, my God, Deion. This is beautiful. I didn't even know you could cook. I wanted to do something special for you... from the heart. I am feeling it. Let's do it. Let's get married, right away. I don't wanna wait. Deion... The church is free on Saturday. You're serious? Baby, we belong together. Yeah. I want to, Saturday. Yeah. Yes! Thank you. Oh, no, thank you. Norbit! Oh... Hi. Hey, good morning, Rasputia. Good morning. How are you this morning? Where the hell you going? Oh. Nowhere special. I was just gonna go out to... I was just going over to Raging Waters. Raging Waters? Yes. It's this thing I got roped into, darling. You know, I was at this orphanage when I was raised, and the people from the orphanage and now they're taking other orphans to Raging Waters, so they asked me to come and give back to the community, so I'm trying to do my part. Little Miss Skinny Bitch gonna be there? Oh, you mean Miss Ling Ling? You know damn well I ain't talking about no Miss Ling Ling. I'm talking about Miss Thing Thing from that picnic. Miss Thing Thing? Who are you talking about, sweetheart? Oh, I think I remember! A girl, she had the foreign name... (GIBBERS) Something Russian! Kate, bitch! Kate! Of course, it's Kate. I don't know if Kate will be there. I hadn't even thought about it. It didn't even cross my mind. I wonder, will Kate be there... Damn good question. Well, I'm going. No! You don't like water parks, Rasputia. No... Who don't like water parks? I love them. They're like amusement parks, except you don't get off the ride to for the bathroom. How YOU doin'! Great! (KIDS CHEER) There you go. Have fun. There you go, Brian. Nick, there's one for you. All right, kids, everybody, please be nice to Mrs Latimore, OK? (ALL) OK. Kate, I hope you don't mind. I asked Rasputia to join us. Of course not. I'm really glad you could come. Well, are we gonna stand around here all day or we gonna go inside? Excuse me. Excuse me, ma'am. What? Are you wearing bottoms? (GASPS) Of course I'm wearing bottoms! OK. Come on in. How dare you? (CLANKING) Oh, hell, no. How... YOU... doin'! (GIRL SCREAMS) This ain't like no real beach. On a beach you got people walking around with ice chests and you can get all kinds of treats like sandwiches and potato chips and Mentos and Skittles, all sorts of delectables. You can't get shit here! Well, you know, there's concession stand. You going? Oh... No, I already ate. Well, you could have fooled me. I'm sorry? I'm just trying to say you too damn skinny. Look at you. See, most men like a woman that got a little huh-huh, a little hey-hey. You're skin and bones, just sitting in that chair all bones and skin. I feel sorry for you. I feel that we're all made exactly the way we're supposed to be. No. I'm a Christian. You can't sit there and blame God for how you look! You the one that pushed that plate away. My Norbit is always telling me there's two kinds of women, big old good ones and good old big ones. Really? That's right. Sister, just between the two of us, I can't keep Norbit off me. He is the biggest freak you ever wanna meet and he blows my back out, tries to put me through the headboard each night! I could go on a little diet so I can get emaciated-looking like you, then he'll think I look disgusting and I can get a rest or some sleep for a little while, because he want it all the time. Boom, bam, boom... But I ain't mad at him, hey... I'll go on a diet for sure, next week. Right now, I'm gonna get me a lamb kebab and a wine cooler. How YOU doin'! Where is that wine cooler section? Miss Thomas, we're all going off the Leap of Doom. Come on. Slowly. Someone will fall. You'll break your head in half a second. (KID) Wait for me! I tell you, it sure is tiring chasing these kids all around the park. Especially for us skinny folk. What? Never mind. So, Norbit, I have some news. Oh... Deion and I decided to move up the wedding. What wedding? Our wedding. We're going to get married on Saturday. You're getting married on Saturday? Yeah, we just figured, "Why wait?" Oh... Well, erm... Congratulations, then. Thanks. Yeah... I'm really happy. Oh, so am I. It's... wonderful. So, there it is, the Leap of Doom. Yeah, go and have fun. I'll wait for you at the bottom. You go have some fun. OK. OK. OK, kids, one at a time! Whoo! I guess this is me. Hi...! What are you looking at, Norbit? Oh! I was just, er, watching the... kids. They're about to come down the slide. I wanted to watch the kids come down safely. Kids, huh? (SCREAMS) Excuse me, ma'am? We have a 300-pound weight limit. I don't weigh no damn 300 pounds. I weigh 165! How YOU doin'! That was awesome! Hey... Whoa! (CREAKING / THUDDING) What's that? (FOOTSTEPS RUMBLE) It's Rasputia. I'm gonna show you how a bitch go down a slide. Whoo! (GIGGLES) Whoo...! I'm sliding, bitches! Whoo! Ha! Whoo! Oh... Whee...! Mary, Mother of God. Slow down! Stop! Stop! (SCREAMS) How YOU doin'! (GROANS) PEOPLE CHATTER, DANCE MUSIC PULSATES They've been on the sauce. PEOPLE CHATTER, DANCE MUSIC PULSATES They've been on the sauce. Your party! DANCE MUSIC PULSATES They've been on the sauce. Your party! That's Mary's boy, isn't it? Yeah. Maybe you should say something. Yeah. Maybe you should say something. Nah. I'm crap at that kind of thing, Barry. Yeah, but they're just kids. If we don't say something... (GROANS) Hey, boys? Boys? Why don't you get a lift home tonight? Oh, whatever, mate. I've only had a couple. No, no, no, no. It's too late now. I've spoken to you and I know your mum, so that means our fates are aligned. You get into that car and you get yourself killed or you kill someone else, I become part of it too. How? yourself killed or you kill someone else, I become part of it too. How? Well, it's like, um, my balls are in your hands. BOYS LAUGH, SNORT BOY: Oh, you want the balls! BOYS LAUGH, SNORT BOY: Oh, you want the balls! Nobody wants that. Hey, how about I drive you? What? Oh. BOY: Oh, you want the balls! Nobody wants that. Hey, how about I drive you? What? Oh. BOYS LAUGH, DANCE MUSIC PLAYS ON RADIO BOY: Oh, you want the balls! Nobody wants that. Hey, how about I drive you? (SWITCHES RADIO STATION) BOYS LAUGH, DANCE MUSIC PLAYS ON RADIO BOY: Oh, you want the balls! Nobody wants that. Hey, how about I drive you? (SWITCHES RADIO STATION) YODELLING MUSIC PLAYS DANCE MUSIC PLAYS ON RADIO BOY: Oh, you want the balls! Nobody wants that. Hey, how about I drive you? I like it. Why does she have to go and get married, Lloyd? Things were going so well. (TRINGING) There it is. Hey. Sorry about the concussion. It's OK. And the whiplash. It's OK. And the bruised stomach. And the blood clot! Nothing. "(INDISTINCT TV CHATTER)" Mmm-hmm! You know damn well that's your baby. You know it's yours. Got the same chin, the same lip. That baby got the same head as you and the same eye. Take the test! Take the test. (TV) "You want to hear the test results?" "(CHEERING)" In the case of the little baby... "The test says that IS your baby." How you doin'! (PHONE RINGS) Latimore Construction, Norbit speaking. "Hey, Norbit, it's Kate." Is there any way you can meet me in town right now? Yeah, sure. "I'm at McCormick's." OK. Fine. "(SHOUTING ON TV)" Rasputia, I'm just loaded up with paperwork up to my ear. I was wondering, could you run these permits downtown for me? What in the hell would I look like running some goddamn permits down to City Hall for your ass? You do it. OK. What's the surprise? No, I'm not telling you. Tell me. Hey... Hey, no, what are you doing? Not till the last second. What? You ready? Yeah, what is it? Ta-da! I know you don't think I'm gonna get on that thing. I think you are. Hey, no way. Look where you wanna go. You're doing great. You got it? You got it? You got it? Watch out for the fence! Agh! (ALL GROAN) And the mailbox. (ALL LAUGH) Rasputia, the painters from the Crestview site got food poisoning. Vomit is everywhere! You know damn well you clean up vomit! You do it! I don't feel safe. Yeah! You're doing great! (ALL LAUGH) Yeah! The Portosans at Drummond's tipped over! Well, go clean the shit up! (BOTH CHUCKLE / CHATTER) Er... Rasputia? # My milkshake Brings all the boys to the yard # And they're like "It's better than yours" # Damn right it's better than yours I can teach you # But I have to charge # My milkshake brings all the boys To the yard # And they're like "It's better than yours" # Damn right it's better Than yours # You do it! # But I have to charge # I got it! Go! I'm getting it! I'm doing it! You're doing it! Yeah, but slow down! How? With the brakes! The brakes! Argh... (ALL LAUGH) Oh, no... Are you OK? Yeah. Actually, that was kind of fun. (CHUCKLES) Come on. OK, help me. OK? Yeah, yeah. I'm going to Giovanni's tonight to choose the food for the reception. You wanna come? Help me decide? What about Deion? Oh... I just don't trust him with food. You know, he made dinner for us the other night. It tasted like cheap take-out. (CHUCKLES) Well, I'll go. Good... I just have to go get my dress, and then we can meet, say, at 7:00? OK, that's great. Perfect, Norbit. OK, see you at seven o'clock! Norbit... Yeah, Norby. Seven o'clock, don't be late. (CHUCKLES) You guys are all pervs. I love it. What's wrong? Are you sure we're not rushing things? I know we're not. I know we're not. I couldn't be happier. Norbit, that's a date. No, it's not. She just wants someone - Are you paying for this encounter this evening? Of course not! Then, that's a date. Don't be trying to tell a pimp his game. Come on, baby. Thank you. Carmen, honey! Well, who are you getting all fine for? Oh... Hello, Rasputia. Well, that's nice... Why you trying to look all extra? Oh, I'm just, you know, being a girl. Oh... My fiance likes it when I take care of myself. Look to me like that fish already in his net. You look like you fixing to catch you a new fish. What? No... (CHUCKLES) God. Don't be silly. You're married, you're here. I don't do this for my husband. Girl, I do this because I have a reputation to uphold. Everybody in this town knows that Rasputia Latimore is fine. Ain't I fine? You fine, girl! You are fine! Everybody knows. But even a delicate flower like me need a little water from time to time. Or a little lie in her kitchen to straighten out them petals. How YOU doin'! Rasputia. Hmm? Helga waiting on you, girl, to do your bikini wax. Here I come, girl. I got to go, girl. Every now and then I got to mow the lawn. You just make sure all that sprucing up is for your fiance. Helga, here I come, girl. It's a full moon, too. Here we go, dear... (GROANS) (RIPPING) Ugh... Oh! Ooh! Whoo... I was looking for Norbit's police whistle! Go fish. What's up? Everything on schedule with the wedding? I got my own problems, but I'll handle it. What's the situation? The liquor licence on the orphanage. It won't roll over when the property changes hands without a transfer request upfront. Getting a new licence could take years. We'll be out of business before we start. Can you get Kate to sign it? No. She's planning on closing the restaurant. It'd raise too many suspicions. OK, smart-ass, what we gonna do now? Yeah! Yeah...! Norbit. Where you going, Norbit? Sit your punk ass down! Guys, I told Rasputia the toilet needs to be reinforced. She said I should take care of it. Forget that. I can't. No, guys, it's an accident waiting to happen - I said forget that. We need you to get these papers signed tonight. I can't do it tonight, guys. There's an accident waiting to happen - If you don't get these papers signed tonight, we can't start the remodel on the orphanage. That's right, punk ass. Bullshit. I'm going for mine tonight. I got things to do! Find that Kate Thomas and get her to sign. Yeah! Kate Thomas? You want me to get these papers to Kate Thomas? Yeah! OK, that's more important. I'll take care of this for you guys. That's what I told you to do. Get your punk ass up! OK, I'm gonna go take these to Kate and take my punk ass to Kate Thomas. Excuse me, pardon me. Let me get through here. Excuse me. Hey, sorry I'm late. Man, it's time for a pimpalicious makeover. Let's do this. Nothing too flashy now. I wanna be flashy, but not.. Class! # I was shopping for a suit the other day # And walked into the department store # I stepped on the elevator and told the girl # "Dry goods floor" # Now, that's pimping. # When I got off a salesman come up to me # He said, "Now, what can I do for you?"... All right, hair's bigger! # .."Show me all the sports clothes" # "Like you're supposed to" # He said "Well, sure, come on in, buddy" # "And dig these fabrics We got laid out on the shelf" # He said... # Pick yourself out one, try it on. Stand in the mirror and dig yourself. # Ooh-ooh-ooh... # OK. Well, I guess this is it, guys. Thanks a lot for all your help. Thanks for making me fly. You fly like a flock of birds, baby. You look good. Thanks, guys. Handle this business for us, brother. I'm gonna handle it. Do the walk, Norbit. Yeah... Norbit! Wow, Norbit! I just picked these on the side of the road, cos this is just a casual get-together. Sure. And you put the wires up the stems, too. That's a nice touch. Norbit! Hey, Sam. (SPEAKS IN ITALIAN) You dressed to kill, huh? Katerina, you look beautiful. Come sit, please. I'm making my specialty just for you. Did you make my favourite? Eh! What do you think, huh? I'm gonna take the flowers, put them into water, OK? He's a nice man. Your favourite? I guess you and Rasputia come here a lot, huh? Oh, no. We used to, but she got banned for life because Sam had an all-you-can-eat buffet once and she took it as a personal challenge. It got pretty ugly. I wanna make a toast. Oh, sure. To old friends. To old friends. (BOTH LAUGH) We were buddy partners, all right, Norbit, we were... Oh... I tell you, you know,... ..sometimes I think I should've never married Rasputia. What do you mean, Norbit? I was just really young, you know, and she latched on to me, and kind of helped me fit in and gave me a family, so... We had nobody, Norbit. I mean, who can blame us for wanting to feel safe, you know? Yeah, safe... Like you and Deion? Yeah... (CHUCKLES) I mean, it's different with Deion, obviously. So, what have you got here? Huh? Those are just construction papers, permits and stuff that you have to sign. Blah, blah, blah. (LAUGHS) Kate, can I ask you a personal question? Sure, what? Do you love Deion? Of course. Yeah. (SIGHS) Otherwise, why would I be marrying him, right? Right? (CHUCKLES) Got your pizzas. Oh... It is about time. I'm about to disappear up in here I'm so hungry. Norbit out draining a swamp or something. He's definitely draining a swamp. He's draining a swamp... like he would be. (CHUCKLES) (SIGHS) Why you looking at me like that? Where's Norbit? Draining a swamp. And why are you looking at me like that? He's out there in the woods, draining a swamp. I told you. (LAUGHS) (PANTS) I don't know nothing. I don't know nothing, OK?! (WHIMPERING) He's on a date with that fine skinny girl! (CHUCKLES) (GIGGLES) (SCREAMS) (SCREAMS) (MUTTERS ANGRILY) Oh, hell, no. And on top of that he been messing with my seat again? Damn it, Norbit! He got me destroying my shit! (TYRES SCREECH) This is it. It's always so beautiful in here. Uh-huh. Peaceful. Hello, Kate, Norbit. Hey. Didn't know anybody was here. I was getting ready to close up shop. You know, Kate, this all happened so fast, I realised we never had a chance to rehearse. Oh, yeah, that's right. So, come on up here. Let me at least show you where you're gonna stand. All right. Rasputia. You know you no allowed in here. The hell with that! Where's Norbit? I don't see Norbit. Anybody see Norbit? No. He hasn't been here. Then, who was eatin'... (SHRIEKS) ..a turkey ass?! Run! Run! Run! (SCREAMS) At which point you'll give your vows to Deion. OK. You want to practise those? Well, I hadn't actually gotten to that quite yet. You don't even know what you're gonna say yet? Oh... Well, what would you say, Norbit? I don't know. What would I say? (HORN BLARES) Norbit! (SIGHS) # Don't ya wish your girlfriend was hot like me? # Don't ya wish your girlfriend was a freak like me? # Don't ya?! # What would I say if I was saying vows? I guess... Kate, I think about you all day long. And when I'm not near you, all I think about is being near you. And when you are near me, I feel like I'm at peace with the whole world. I know that... I'll never have to ask God for anything, cos as long as I have you in my life, I got everything I ever wanted. And the only thing I really wanna do is just spend the rest of my life making you as happy as you've made me. Because I love you, Kate. I love you. I don't know, something like that. And after the vows you would then... OK. (GASPS) (SIGHS) (HORN BLARES) Oh. I'm sorry, I have to go. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Awkward. Give me that crowbar! I got some killing to do! (WOMEN SCREAMS) (SCREAMS) Damn it! Oh! I'm a Christian. You got me up in this church cursing, Norbit. Death do us part, huh? OK, Norbit... Look like you done moved up the goddamn schedule. I'm cursing again! Pray, bitch, pray! Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name! Thy kingdom come... Kate, please. Kate, please, I'm sorry. Kate, please, stop and talk to me. Please, please, Kate. Talk to me, please. I can't, Norbit. I'm just too confused right now. I'm sorry. It was all my fault. I never should have kissed you. No... I wanted you to. That's why I'm so confused. Good night. She wanted me to. Where the papers at, Norbit? Got them for you right here. I'd hate to be you right now. Why? Go on in the house. (ALL LAUGH) Go on in. (LAUGHS) Go ahead, fool. What you waiting for? Get on in! (TYRES SCREECH) Hello? Chocolate drop, I'm home. Lollipop? (WHISPERS) Mail. Expecting a letter, Norbit? (GASPS) Oh, you frightened me. No, I was just looking, looking through. How was your date? Date? Oh... That was no date. (CHUCKLES) That was just... I just was over at, erm, er, whatshername's wedding rehearsal. That's all. It wasn't a date, though. Oh, really? Lloyd. Is that you, Lloyd? Lloyd, what am I gonna do? Kill the bitch! Excuse me? What'd you say? You heard me. Rub her out. Take her down. Ice the bitch. Hey... Lloyd, you're talking. She took my legs, Norbit. She took my legs. You know what it's like to be a dog with no legs? I can't raise one up to pee. Hell, I can't even hump no more, Norbit. Humping was my thing. What is this, Norbit? Some kind of weird, satanic potato art? Mmm-mmm... What's this? It looks like the acid that we use down at the quarry. Right! But this is Miss Pretty Little Thang's little face. And, Norbit, if you ever see her again, if you ever talk to her again or if you ever so much as think about the bitch again, this is what's gonna happen to her. (SIZZLING) How YOU doin'! You get the picture, Norbit? Deion, I just think that we need to take a beat. It's not you, it's me. (DOOR CLOSES) Just if we slow down... Oh, good, you're up. Deion, we need to talk. Yes, we do. I was just at Latimore Construction with the renovation plans. I found this on Big Black's desk. What is it? A renewal of the Wonton's liquor licence in the Latimores' name. What? Baby, you signed it yesterday. Look at the date. No... No, I didn't sign anything. Just some permits that Norbit gave me, but... Well, did you read them? No. No. Great(!) I don't get it, though, Deion. Why would the Latimores want me to renew the liquor licence at the orphanage? People say they've tried to get hold of that orphanage for years. Apparently they want to turn it into a strip joint. (GASPING) Disgusting. First you gonna clean the basement, then you gonna clean the garage, then you gonna clean the attic. We don't have an attic. Then you build a damn attic, Norbit! Then clean it! I'm going upstairs to take a bubble bath. (SUBDUED SCREAM) Bitch! You bitch...! Finally. Mmm! I needed this. Ooh, let me submerge this ass. How you... doin'...! Good and hot. Sounds like it's raining outside. Oh, no... Kate! Norbit. Over here. Over here. I need to talk to you. Do you know what was in those papers you had me sign? Yeah, the construction permits. No, that's not all. (THUMPING FOOTSTEPS) Norbit. (SHOUTING) Just, just, just go away, Kate! Get out of here! What? You heard what I said! Just get out of here! Scram! The Latimores are trying to take control of the orphanage, Norbit. Why don't you go and find somebody who gives a rat's ass, because I sure as hell don't! You don't care? No, I... don't care. And I don't care about you, either! Norbit... The only woman I have ever, ever loved and ever cared about was my darling wife,... Rasputia! But last night... Last night I was just... I was just trying to nail you, you know, score? But now I realise I don't have to do that! All I need is my beautiful, precious wife... Rasputia! She's all the woman I need, so you can just go on and get out of here, you screwy dame! Who needs ya? (DOOR OPENS) Damn, Norbit. Did that skinny little thing figure out your plan? Girl, you just don't get it, do you? Norbit played you. You got her to sign those papers, didn't you? Er, yes, darling. He been setting you up from that moment from the very first day. How YOU doin'! Don't you ever talk to me again! Kate... Damn, Norbit, you pissing off everybody today. (MIMICS) Don't you ever talk to me again! (TYRES SCREECH) (MIMICS) Oh! Don't you ever talk to me again! (MIMICS) Never again! (SNORES) (CONTINUES SNORING) Hey, Norbit! Mr Wong, what are you doing around here? I just going for a walk, Norbit, just going for a walk. I live in this neighbourhood long time, long time. Soon I be moving on. As I look around this neighbourhood, I realise there no good dry cleaners here. I could make killing! Shh. Why you got suitcase? I'm getting the H out of here. I'm leaving town for good. What? I thought you stick around, help Kate run orphanage. Oh, she's getting married to Deion tomorrow, so there's no reason for me to stay around here. No reason? She won't even see me. Besides, I'll just wind up getting hurt again. Norbit, you listen to me. You very special to me. I love you like my own child, like boy child, not girl child. Wong once have girl child back in Shanghai. When she two years old, I trade her for yak. That sort of thing happen in China from time to time. Yak very hard to come by. Oh, yeah, sure, I appreciate that. You can't run from your problems, Norbit. Black people run fast, but problem even faster. That's kind of racist. Yes. Wong very racist. I no like black. I no like Jew either. But black and Jew love Chinese food. Go figure. Always remember two things, Norbit. One - even though you're very ugly, you're very strong inside, like warrior. And two - mail come late on Friday. Wong Dry Cleaning... (SIGHS) It could have been huge. You don't even have to clean nothing, you just spray with starch. (GASPS) (MOUTHS) (GASPS) Mr Wong... I gotta warn Kate. "Hello?" Hello, Kate. Kate, it's Norbit. I have to talk to you. "Please don't call me anymore." It's very important. "(CLICKS)" Kate? "(DIALLING TONE)" (GASPS) Going somewhere, Norbit? No, I was... What did I tell you about leaving this house? I was just going to get some fresh air. Boy, you ain't going nowhere till after that wedding's done. We got too much riding on that. What do you have riding on the wedding? Soon as your little friend says, "I do", Deion and us is gonna turn the orphanage into a titty bar. (GASPS) But what about the little orphans? They can come, if they pay. John the Baptist, stop their evil plan. Argh! Get your ass down in the basement. Get down there! (DOOR LOCKS) (SUBDUED SCREAM) It's a madhouse! A madhouse! Yeah. I know y'all better stop rushing me. Beauty takes time. This don't just happen! Oh, no... You gonna stay here and make sure Norbit don't go no place. What? Why I gotta stay? Because everybody know you the smartest. (ENGINE STARTS) (BELL DONGS) # My god called me this mornin' # Hey,... Lordie... # My god called me this mornin' # It's a wonderful day... # Three minutes to show time. Not too late to chicken out. No, I'm ready. OK. You look beautiful. Alright... "P-O-W-E-R." "T to the A, to the mother-stanking P." "Power-tap the fat, move back! Power-tap the fat, move back!" "(ORGAN PLAYS THE WEDDING MARCH)" What are the Latimores doing here? Don't worry. It's your day. You look beautiful. Nuts. "Tap, tap, tap. Tap it off." Tap, tap... (GLASS SMASHES) Norbit! Norbit? Norbit! Oh, damn. He escaped. Norbit! Norbit! Your ass is mine, Norbit! (HORN BLARES) (PHONE RINGS) Yeah? Shh! Just now? Shit! Norbit escaped. He gonna be headed this way. Come on. Hell, no. Norbit is coming. For shizzle? We have to figure out way to stall wedding. Just calm down, Mr Wong. I've ruined plenty of weddings back in the day. Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to join these two in holy matrimony. Your Honour, I object! (GASPING) Object? Sir, we've not gotten to that part yet. Then, I'm objeculating prematurely, Reverend. No offence, my brother, but we're just trying to keep the train rolling here. Oh, well, if you want to get the train rolling, you know, ..you got to use the big "L". Lesbians. No, man. I ain't talking about no lesbians. Although, late at night. Yes. Right? Yes. No, brother, we talking about love! Love. Love is the engine that drives the train forward, backwards, side to side, round and round love does go. You understand me? I got this, brother. I'm not talking about no $20 up in here, back seat of the car, stanky-stanky, hanky-panky. Nah. No. I'm talking about good, wholesome, fortified with eight essential vitamins love, that cost anywhere... How much it cost? $136, Monday through Fridays. $212 on the weekends. Because of inflation! Can I get an "Amen"? (ALL) Amen! # You know, your love # Your love keeps lifting me # Keep on lifting # Love keeps lifting me # Higher # Higher and higher! # Oh! Where the hell you going, Norbit? None of your GD beeswax, Rasputia! Look at you, you old stupid fool. You can't even ride a bike. Oh, yes, I can, because Kate taught me! (GASPS / SCREAMS) Brothers and sisters! This particular one's for the brothers. When you buy the ones that say, "Ribbed for her pleasure", turn them inside out and they ribbed for your pleasure. Can I get an "Amen"? (ALL) Amen! Now, speaking of ribs and pleasure. Er, yes. For a limited time only, we are proud to present to you our barbeque, baby back, horseradish, mustard and peanut butter-encrusted ribs with a slight Jagermeister infusion sprinkled with chamomile leaves with a horseradish and dandelion salad on a bed of rice. Buy one Pimp Platter, get the whole bones free. No, no, no! That's enough talking. It's time to get back to the wedding. It ain't never enough talking when you talking about love, brother. (CHUCKLES) Ain't that right? (ALL) Yeah! Let me hear you say it, people! (ALL) Love! Let me hear you sing it, choir! (ORGAN BLARES) (CHOIR) # Love...! # Come, we that love the Lord # And let our joy be known... # I'm gonna rip your head off. Rasputia. What? Car! I don't give a damn about no car. I'm ready to die. Car! (HORN) I'm ready to die! I'm ready to die. You won't ruin Nipplopolis for me, boy! Damn! I'm gonna die up in here. Drive the car, God damn it! # Let those refuse to sing # Who never knew our God! # What's up, white man? Pay for your sins. Pay for your sins. We gonna change your name to Leroy. # May speak their joys abroad # We're marching up to Zion # We're marching up to Zion # The beautiful city of God! Agh...! # We're marching up to Zion # The beautiful, beautiful # Beautiful, beautiful # Beautiful, beautiful Beautiful, beautiful city... # Beautiful city # The beautiful city of... # God... # # Yeah... # Amen! (WHISTLING) That's enough! That's enough! Enough! Enough! Enough! Enough! Stop the music! Hold on. Shut up! You two, shut up! That's it. This is husband-and-wife time. Now, let's go. Let's go. Husband-and-wife stuff. Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today... I object! (GASPING) Oh, for Christ's sake! Norbit. (BOTH) Norbit! Norbit. (CHOIR SINGS) # Norbit! # This wedding is a sham, and I'm here to stop it! Norbit, what are you doing? Being a man for the first time in my life! Kate... Kate, I love you. What the hell did you just say? Ew. You heard what I said, strumpet! I love Kate! That's right! I love you, Kate. And the last two weeks I spent with you have meant more to me than my whole entire miserable life with you, Rasputia! It's over! Norbit Albert Rice is no longer your bitch! (GASPING) (CHUCKLES) (SCREAMS) You're dead! Get off me! Get your hands off me, Black. Don't go hitting me. (BOTH SHOUT) No, wait! No, no, wait, baby girl, he's ruining our wedding. We just heard condom advice from an ex-pimp. I think we can survive a few words from Norbit. Deion is a fake. He's marrying you just to get your money! What?! Him and the Latimores. They thought this whole scheme up. He's been married four times in the last six years to four women and he cheated the women out of $300,000 in divorce settlements. Yeah, I heard all about it! And something else. They were gonna try to steal the orphanage from you. You crazy! He's got a big crush on you. He's making this stuff up. Oh, yeah? Yes. I'm making it all up? Then, what about this, then? This is evidence that I have. Ah-ha! Look at this! Before it fell in the pond, it had numbers and there was information. There was people's names and dates and addresses and all kinds of incriminating things! I fell in the pond but you can't read it! But, boy, did I have your ass! That's nice, really nice. Did you write that yourself? Pathetic. Kate, you have to believe me. Yeah, yeah, believe him, Kate. Remember he got you to sign the papers to steal the orphanage? Remember that? Believe him! I'm so sorry, Norbit. I just don't trust you any more. (RASPUTIA LAUGHS) Well, well, well, Norbit! You lose again. Once a loser, always a loser! Now, come on! Let's go! (SNORTS) Yeah, I thought you'd feel that way about it, Kate. And that's why I took the liberty of inviting some of Deion's ex-wives so maybe they could tell you for themselves! Ladies! (WOMAN) Hello, Antoine. I've been looking for you. (ALL KIDS) Daddy! Antoine? He told me his name was Luther! Who is that ho? He told me he was gay. No... Y'all got me confused with my gay twin brother, Antoine Luther. You dead, gold digger! Get your butt back here! I'm out! Looks like the wedding's off, bro. Church! God damn it, Norbit! Oh, snap! Get him! Norbit! Mother Mary! Jesus! Noah! Christ! Argh! Good! Argh... You going somewhere, Norbit? You messed up, boy. That's right. Now you gonna pay, big time! Latimore! Keep your fakakta hands off him! Go back to your shop, Abe, before I kill you, too! Hey! You gonna have to kill me, as well! Yeah, and me, too! Rasputia! (KNUCKLES CRACK) How you doin'! I kick the shit out of you. Ooh. Mind your goddamn business! Mind your business! (CROWD) Ooh! No, you didn't! Bye-bye! Bring it, bitches! Oh, hell to the no. Mrs Henderson is tripping, huh? You crazy little old bitch! How YOU doin'! Get out of the way. His ass is mine. 'Sputia? Rasputia? You remember "till death do us part," don't you, Norbit? No! Whale, ho! Did somebody just call me a whale? Yeah, and a ho! (SCREAMS) Bingo! Right in the blow hole! Let's get some! We dead. (CHEERING) Norbit! Are you all right? All right? This is the best I've ever felt in my whole life. Come here. Proud of that boy. Yes. Yes, very proud of Norbit. He like my son. I'm sorry I doubted you. 'In the end, I guess you could say everything worked out just fine.' 'Kate and I took over the orphanage and it was a dream come true.' 'Oh, and we also got married,... ..again.' I love you, Kate. Ditto. And I now pronounce you my wife. And I pronounce you my husband. You may kiss the bride. (LAUGHS) (ALL KIDS) Ew! What you mean, "Ew"? No, "Ew." Man kiss a woman, beautiful thing! Ling Ling. Come here with your fine self. (ALL KIDS) Ew! I now pronounce you man and wife. 'As for Rasputia and the rest of the Latimores, we never heard from them again.' 'Rumour has it they settled somewhere in Mexico and opened a club.' (MARIACHI MUSIC) 'I guess they're living their dream too.' Say, man, don't you have any better-looking girls than that? Our best girl's coming out right now. Rasputia! "# Don't ya wish your girlfriend was hot like me?" "# Don't ya wish your girlfriend was a freak like me?" "# Don't ya? #" Wah-hoo! Hold on, now, Pepe. Ain't nothing going there unless it got the word "peso" written on it! (SHOUTS IN SPANISH) Whoo...!
