01:39Ladies and gentlemen, Keenan Ivory Wayans.
02:00All right.
02:02I'm Keenan Ivory Wayans and welcome to Living Color.
02:04We've been having a lot of fun here the past few weeks.
02:07You know, I've been getting, like, a lot of letters.
02:09People are asking me what I like most about doing the show.
02:12And I guess it's working with my family.
02:14And I'd like to start by introducing my baby brother and my DJ, SW1.
02:28What'd you do with my shoes on, man?
02:31Yo, I'm going to wear those and take them off, man.
02:33Give them my shoes.
02:33Oh, come on, man.
02:34These ain't yours.
02:35Give them my shoes.
02:35How are you going to do this to me, man, on TV?
02:43Go in my closet.
02:46All right.
02:46Now I want to introduce my fly girl starting over here.
02:49We're Carrie, Deidre, Michelle, Lisa, and Carrie Ann.
02:57Yeah.
03:00All right.
03:00We about ready to get things going.
03:02Get it.
03:02It ain't funny, man.
03:06Get my shirt.
03:07Man, you said I could wear it yesterday.
03:09Give him the shirt, man.
03:10Chill out before I take my chest back.
03:33We did it, man.
03:34Let's go.
03:35On Fox this fall, a principal breathes new life into a failing beauty school in the uplifting mini-series, Lean on Me Beautiful.
03:55Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.
03:59My name is Joe Clark.
04:02I am your new principal.
04:04Now, when I point to you, I want you to line up.
04:07You, you, you, and you, and you, and you, and you, line up now, expeditiously.
04:16Now, I want all of you to take a good look at them.
04:21Take a good look at these mutants.
04:23These are the ugliest kids in the class.
04:28They have no place here.
04:30I want you all to go home to your ugly parents right now.
04:33Get on out of here.
04:35Hurry up.
04:36Move on.
04:37You too, fuzzy.
04:38This is an outrage.
04:41You can't talk to my students this way.
04:43I'm going to the school superintendent.
04:45Well, go on then, and let the dog hit you in the big party, boy.
04:48Why, I miss...
04:50I bet you have not.
04:54Now, do you know what they say about you out there?
04:56Huh?
04:57Greasehead, do you know what they say about you?
04:59They say that the reason you're in a beauty school is because you're too stupid to go to a regular school.
05:06I happen to think they're right.
05:07But when I'm through with you, you'll be the smartest dumb people out there.
05:11What do you want, ugly?
05:13I don't want to go.
05:16Come with me, boy.
05:18Come here.
05:20Now, what makes you think you can be a beautician?
05:24Huh?
05:25What makes you think you can give beauty tips to somebody?
05:28Look at yourself.
05:29You're ugly, boy.
05:30Is your parents ugly?
05:31Yeah.
05:32Well, you're going to grow up to look just like them.
05:34If you got ugly parents, you might as well just jump out the window.
05:37Do you use chemicals in your hair?
05:39No.
05:40Do you use chemicals in your hair?
05:41Yeah.
05:42Now you got a bad perm and you're ugly.
05:43In the world don't need another ugly boy with a bad perm.
05:46Just go on and jump some.
05:47Okay.
05:48And what are you all looking at?
05:53Huh?
05:54Let me hear the school song.
05:55Uh, uh, uh, uh.
05:56Let me hear the school song now.
05:58We don't have a school song.
05:59You don't have one?
06:01No.
06:02No.
06:03Then make one up.
06:04Uh, uh, uh, uh.
06:05Farewell for beauty academy.
06:08You can do better than that.
06:10I said Wilford Beauty Academy.
06:14Wilford Beauty Academy.
06:17Academy.
06:18Yes, indeed.
06:19I'm doing hair.
06:20Get in my chair.
06:21I'm doing cows.
06:22For little cows.
06:23I'm doing cows.
06:24I'm doing cows.
06:25I'm doing cows.
06:26Mr. Clark.
06:28I think it is a disgrace what you have done to those children.
06:32I can see why they call you crazy, Joe.
06:35You are an egotist and a demagogue.
06:38Excuse me, children.
06:39May I talk to you outside for a moment?
06:41Follow me.
06:42Carry on.
06:43Now, first, if you take those children...
06:45Don't you...
06:46No!
06:47Come on, man.
06:53She used to call me crazy, Joe.
06:55Now, she just called me Batman.
06:57I want this place to move up right now.
07:00I want this place to move up right now.
07:02This is...
07:03No, Joe!
07:04Joe!
07:05No, Joe!
07:06There's been a mistake.
07:08You weren't supposed to come to Wilford Beauty School.
07:11You were supposed to come to Wilford Central High School.
07:15You'll have to go, Joe.
07:18But I got so much more to break up.
07:21I don't make the rules.
07:23Well, I'm sorry, children.
07:28I'll no longer be your principal.
07:30I've been reassigned.
07:31Don't go, Mr. Clark.
07:32We need you!
07:33We love you, Mr. Clark!
07:35Yeah, Joe, don't go!
07:37I mean, who's gonna give me that extra push I need?
07:40Boy, you children really are stupid.
07:45Well, maybe I should stick around.
07:48Looks like they're gonna need somebody to lean on.
07:50Yay!
07:51All righty, then!
07:52Lean on me when you're not strong.
07:58And I'll be over you now.
08:01I'll help you carry!
08:04Lean on me, Unicorn, the Joe Clark story part two.
08:07Only on Fox.
08:15I found true love and happiness.
08:17And I found the guy of my dreams.
08:20And you too can enjoy interracial splendor.
08:23On the mitzvah train.
08:25So why not climb aboard the mitzvah train,
08:29the city's premier Afro-Judeo video dating service?
08:34Grid some of those cultural gaps
08:36while doing the wild thing.
08:39You'll find you have a lot more in common
08:41than you thought.
08:42Slavery, hard to manage hair, Sammy Davis Jr.
08:46Hey, maybe your grandfather was your date's slumlord.
08:50Mine was.
08:51So why not give it a try?
08:53That's right.
08:54I didn't know a matzah ball from a basketball
08:57till I met Mitzi.
09:00Ahmaud taught me the Roger Rabbit dance
09:02and I was even able to try it out
09:03at a Kool Moe Dee concert.
09:06I love my Yiddish mama so much
09:08I've had myself circumcised.
09:11Twice.
09:13And I'm thinking about going back for another cut.
09:21So come on down to mitzvah train.
09:23And remember, we're not only the owners of the mitzvah train,
09:26but we're also clients.
