[last lines of episode]

Chris Rock:
[narrating] My dad always checked on us in between jobs: His night job, and his late-at-night job.

Chris:
Dad?

Julius:
Hey, man. I thought you were asleep.

Chris:
I'm sorry I ate the big piece of chicken.

Julius:
That was 89¢ worth of chicken. What, you didn't get enough to eat at school?

Chris:
I was still hungry.

Julius:
Now I'm still hungry. [sits on Chris' bed] Look. Next time, eat a little something extra at breakfast, okay?

Chris:
Okay.

Julius:
[pulls out cash] Here. [pulls cash from Chris before his can get it] Now, don't go pullin' this money out. Somebody'll try to rob you. [gives cash to Chris] Don't tell you mother about this. Everything okay at school?

Chris Rock:
[narrating] I didn't tell him about the fight. My dad went to school during the Civil Rights Era. After hoses, tanks, and a dog bites on your ass, somehow, Joey Caruso didn't compare.

Chris:
Yep, it was alright.

Julius:
Okay. I'll see you in the morning.

Chris Rock:
[narrating] My father wasn't the type to say "I love you." I was one of four fathers on the block. "I'll see you in the morning." meant he was coming home. Coming home was his way of saying "I love you."

Julius:
Unplug that clock, boy. You can't tell time when you sleep. That's two cents an hour.

[Chris begrudgingly decides to unplug his clock.]

Rochelle:
[offscreen; angrily] What the Hell happened to my towel?! [Chris' eyes widen in shock, as if thinking "I'm busted!", as the screen freeze-frames and fades to black, ending the episode as "Rapper's Delight" by The Sugarhill Gang plays in the background]
