Robert:
Hey, good morning, Huey! [switches to a woman sitting near the table eating cereal] You want some breakfast?
Huey:
Granddad, what's going on?
Robert:
Just a little breakfast. Oh, by the way, this is Tina. She's gonna be staying here until the cris blows over. [Tina waves to Huey]
Huey:
Granddad, the plan was for four people.
Robert:
Well, how come you get to have a little friend and I can't have a friend?
Huey:
It's not a slumber party, Granddad! I planned on Jazmine being here. I didn't plan for anyone else.
Robert:
Well, your plan sucked! Shoot, you think the world's gonna end, I'm gonna be trapped up in here looking at y'all sweaty-necked negroes? You crazy! [door bell rings] Uh, I'll get it!
Huey:
Grandad, wait! [follows his grandfather] Granddad, the emergency plan says we don't open the front door until we know the identity of the person outside and can confirm they don't have...[Robert opens the door to reveal Thugnificent]
Robert:
[to Thugnificent] What do you want?
Thugnificent:
Hey, uh, Riley told me y'all had a fly little emergency setup over here, and, to be honest, a nigga was kind of wondering if he could hold it down for a little while. [Riley walks from the stairs]
Riley:
[chuckles] Hey, what up, Thugnificent? Granddad, can he stay with us, too?
Huey:
[to Riley] NO!
Robert:
Why should I help him?
Thugnificent:
Look, old nigga, this fried chicken flu is kind of scaring a nigga, man! Mothafuckas is wilin' out and shit. I mean, look, I don't know shit about survival, I'm a rapper.
Huey:
[to Thugnificent] NO!
Robert:
Nope. Sorry!
Riley:
That's a cold situation. Both of y'all get friends, and I can't have a friend?
Robert:
He does have a point. [to Thugnficent] You know, I don't like playing favorites.
Thugnificent:
And I don't want you to think I came empty-headed either, nigga! Ain't nothing Thugnificent about being a freeloader. You smell me? LEONARD! [Leonard appears with two bags of Wendy's food]
Leonard:
Yo, anybody hungry? I got the whole menu right here, minus the chicken, or course. Check it out, we got singles, doubles, bacon doubles, double bacons with a little bit of meat on it, frosties, some chili cheese, right here. I wouldn't touch that, though, I tasted it on the way here. I ain't gonna lie-I ate the chili cheese. That's why I said don't taste it. But who wants some other stuff?
Huey:
Granddad, this is not in the plan.
Robert:
Well, according to the plan, all we got to eat is Cheerios and green beans. So, once again, your plan sucks. [to Leonard] You got the bacon cheeseburgers?
Leonard:
Here you go, Mr. Freeman. [hands Robert the food]
Robert:
Thank you kindly.
Thugnificent:
[laughs] Where my room at, nigga? [Robert shuts the door]
Meteorologist:
Now, again, we don't want anyone to panic, but let's look at some of the projected casualty rates. Let's start with New York-projected million and a half dead. Maryland-three hundred thousand dead. Florida-a million and a half projected to push up days and now certain fears that the virus may have jumped franchises. May be affecting chickens from Bluto's, Temple's Chicken, and even Chicke-le-fait. [zooms out of TV]
Thugnificent:
Damn! Everyone is catching this shit man! That must be some good-ass chicken.
Riley:
The real tragedy is that we may never, ever get to eat fried chicken again. [doorbell rings. From the surveillance camera at the front door, Tom and Sarah are seen]
Tom:
Robert? Huey?
Sarah:
Anyone home?
Robert:
[to Huey] Say "no". [Jazmine pushes Robert and Huey out of the way] Hey.
Jazmine:
Mommy! Daddy!
Huey:
What do you want? This [in deep disorted voice from outside] is a restricted area.
Tom:
Huey, uh...it's us. We're just checking on Jazmine and, um, wondering if it was too late to...
Sarah:
Is Huey home? Can we just talk to Huey? Or Robert?
Huey:
[in deep disorted voice] This is Huey.
Tom:
Huey, let us in!
Huey:
I can't.
Jazmine:
That's not fair! You let everyone else in!
Robert:
[deep voice] Oh to hell with them! They're on their own! [back into the house] We don't even have enough food for two more people.
Jazmine:
What about what Leonard brought!
Riley:
No way. That's for us!
Tom:
Guys, it's us-Tom and Sarah. We are your neighbors and dear friends. We've had so many hilarious adventures together. Come on. [Tom becomes angry. Sarah gives a frowning face] You're really gonna leave us here to die?
Huey:
[whispers] Maybe we should let them in, 'cause Jazmine will start crying and we'll never get her to shut up.
Robert:
Okay, I guess.
Huey:
Step forward to the camera. [Tom and Sarah does so. The scanner occurs and the two are in perfect shape] They can come in.
Jazmine:
Really?! Thank you, Huey! Thank you, thank you!
Huey:
But they're not allowed to eat anything.
Robert:
Works for me. [everyone leaves with Jazmine somehow left behind. In the living room, everyone is eating Wendy's food. Tom and Sarah are disappointed. Jazmine is eating Cheerios.]-
Huey:
[sighs] Eleven people. We don't have anywhere near enough food and water.
Uncle Ruckus:
I agree. There's way too many darkies in this house. [everyone pauses]
Robert:
Ruckus? [drops his bacon cheeseburger]
Huey:
Ruckus, what are you doing here?
Uncle Ruckus:
Oh, funniest things happen. I was in the attic, replacing some of that insulation, like you asked me to, Robert. Then there was like some kind of explosion. Then it went black, and I hit my noggin. I just woke up like five minutes ago. [Robert comes up to him]
Robert:
You've been here this whole time?!
Uncle Ruckus:
Yeah, but don't you worry. Old Uncle Ruckus is fine. I'm just fine. Oh, I noticed the president was on TV. What was that well-dressed nigga talking about? [at the door, Uncle Ruckus is being thrown out, but the boys, Robert, and Thugnificent struggle in doing so]
Robert:
Get the hell out of here! Come on, Ruckus, get on!
Uncle Ruckus:
No, please, don't send me out there! I don't want the chicken flu! Lord, I'm too young to die! Please! I swear I'll never say anything out this dark!
Robert:
No, get your fat ass outta here! [throws Uncle Ruckus out] Here, have a gas mask. [throws Uncle Ruckus a gas mask. Robert closes door. A female reporting explaining about the virus]
Anchorwoman:
Asian stocks posted their biggest single-day decline history because of the fried chicken flu outbreak. [channel changes to another news channel]
Anchorman #2:
The government of Pakistan collapsed as a result of the fried chicken flu pandemic. [a group of American soldiers are seen, wearing masks. The channel changes to another news channel]
Female Reporter:
Authorities say the fried chicken flu is responsibe for the tsunami that hit the coast of Vietnam this morning. [channel changes to the news channel from the beginning of the episode]
Anchorman:
With everyone either sick or afraid of getting sick, the nation has come to a complete standstill. [a video of a lot of people in the hospital] Hospitals are overwhelmed, as are all basic services-power, water, cellphone and internet service. What? What's that? We're going live to yet another address from President Obama. [President Barack Obama is making another announcement]
Barack Obama:
Good evening. My fellow Americans, I want you to know that in this time of crisis, I am personally doing everything I can to help you. And by "everything", I mean sitting here and talking to you in a calm, soothing voice. And as long as you can hear my voice, everything is gonna be just fine. [the TV shuts off and so does the power. Huey and Jazmine are in the garage working on the generator]
Huey:
All that work, all that planning-why did I even try?
Jazmine:
Because you're different from everyone else.
Huey:
Maybe you're right. Okay, try it. [Jazmine pulls the switch; it works, and the power soon comes back on]
Jazmine:
I knew you could do it. [Huey sighs. Huey arrives in the living room only to find everyone is using all the power- Riley playing his video games; Sarah doing Jazmine's hair using a blowdryer; Thugnificent using the computer for a camera; Leonard vacuuming; and finally, Robert making smoothies]
Huey:
Guys, wait! You're gonna use up all the power!
Robert:
What, boy?!
Huey:
You're gonna use up all the power!
Robert:
I can't hear you! We have too much electronic equipment running at the same time! [the power shuts off]
Leonard:
Aw, I'm scared of the dark!
Riley:
[throws controller on the floor] DAMN! [days later, everyone is bored of the power outage]
Thugnificent:
[to Huey] How long we got to be up in here, man? It's been like a week and a half! We ain't got no power! It's getting a little old, all right?
Huey:
No one's forcing you to stay here.
Thugnificent:
Oh, oh, I get it! You want me to leave and go outside and get the fried chicken flu. Is that it, nigga?! You're trying to kill a nigga, nigga?!
Ms. Von Housen:
Robert Freeman, this is the Woodcrest Fried Chicken Flu Militia. We demand to speak with you at once. [Robert and Huey heads to the camera to find Mrs Von Housen, Uncle Ruckus, and other white folks at the front door] We understand you are hoarding emergency supplies. This is a serious offense in a time of crisis.
Uncle Ruckus:
You tell them, Ms. Von Housen. They got all types of goodies up in there. They got green beans and Cheerios and drinkable water-even a device that lets you pee in a cup and drink it right back in again. Still tastes like pee, but you get the idea.
Ms. Von Housen:
The Woodcrest Fried Chicken Flu Militia will enforce the law until order is re-established. We demand that you let us in to inspect your house. [Huey and Robert looks at each other]
Huey:
[in deep disorted voice] No!
Ms. Von Housen:
I insist, Mr. Freeman! Let us in at once! [back to Huey and Riley's room]
Robert:
Let me try! [in deep disorted voice] Get the fuck on! [the white folks gasps]
Ms. Von Housen:
Mr. Freeman, we are not leaving until you allow us in!
Robert:
That bitch must have lost her mind. We got to do something. What should we do?
Huey:
It's in the plan. Did anyone read the plan? [everyone mumbles]
Jazmine:
I did! Homemade tear gas.
Robert:
Homemade tear gas-that's an idea! Uh-huh.
Jazmine:
Yeah that's it!
Robert:
That's an ideal response. That'll solve our problems. [they immediately make the tear gas. Then, Huey joins all the men on the roof] Hey old woman, suck on this!
Thugnificent:
[to Ms. Von Housen] That's right! Eat an old dick, old bitch! [Ms. Von Housen and the others panic]
Riley:
Fall back, faggots.
Tom:
[to Riley] Now Riley, there's no need to be homophobic. [throws tear gas and taunts the townsfolk] Eat it, you pussy-punk bitches!
Ms. Von Housen:
[about the boys] The terrorists are using chemical weapons! [to the townsfolks] Retreat! Retreat! [the men cheers. In the house, Jazmine, Huey, and Tom are sweating and out of breath]
Jazmine:
How do you know if someone has fried chicken flu?
Huey:
Well, it normally starts with a temperature and excessive sweatiness. [Tom pulls his collar] After that, tremendous stomach pain [Tom moans and holds his stomach painfully], headache, [Tom grabs his head] loss of balance. [Tom falls on the couch] As mucus builds up, they'll begin to have an incredible amount of snot. [Tom sneezes and reveals his great amount of snot] And after that, the inevitable projectile vomit. [Tom vomits as Huey and Jazmine turn around, Jazmine screams and she sees her father with vomit all over as he loses consciousness. Sarah and Jazmine are outside the door of the guest room]
Sarah:
Stay calm. Stay calm. [in the room, Huey is dressed in a quarantine suit]
Huey:
Tom! Tom! Can you hear me? Tom, I need to know how you contracted the flu? Did you leave the house?
Tom:
No. I was so hungry, that I-Leonard, it was un-delicious. [Huey goes downstairs to the refrigerator. He pulls out the remaining Wendy's bag]
Leonard:
I swear, my left hand, right hand to God, I did not feed him no chicken-just some fries and some buffalo wings.
Riley:
Aw, man. There was chicken in here all this time?
Leonard:
Chicken? No, no, not chicken-buffalo wings. You ain't just hear me say "buffalo wings"? You know what? When I tried one, I thought to myself, "this tastes like chicken", but then the fact it was a buffalo, I was like, "Nah, I don't wan't to say it out loud. Y'all gonna think I'm stupid". That's why I ain't get no chicken. Just got the buffalo.
Huey:
Buffalo?
Robert:
Get out of here! [we see Thugnificent naked with Tina half-naked]
Thugnificent:
You, what's going on nigga!
Robert:
You no-good, back-stabbing nigga! You too, you nasty-ass hooker!
Thugnificent:
It ain't like that!
Robert:
You mean I didn't just catch you on top of Tina?!
Thugnificent:
Well...yeah, you did, but I swear I thought it was cool, man.
Robert:
You thought it was COOL?! How is that cool?!
Thugnificent:
I swear to God, man, she told me you wouldn't mind! I thought, you know, you was sharing with the homey! I mean, it ain't no fun unless your ho-nigga, you know what I'm talking about! Look, I-I thought we was tag-teaming on the ass, right.
Robert:
That's disgusting! Get out! All of you, out, OUT!
Thugnificent:
Please, please, please, let me stay, old nigga! I'm sorry I smashed your broad, all right? What are we going to do?!
Leonard:
I didn't mean to kill Tom. I fed him 'cause I wanted him to live. And now he ain't gonna live, so it's like, why did I feed him? But I didn't mean to kill him. [Robert shuts the door. Everyone is in the gas mask in the room where Tom is]
Huey:
Betty's militia is going to come back, and we can't defend this place by ourselves. We have to go!
Jazmine:
Leave the house? But where are we gonna go?
Huey:
Don't know. We'll have to take our chances.
Tom:
You guys go without me. I'm only gonna slow you down.
Sarah:
[shedding tears from her eyes] Honey, no. We'd never leave you.
Robert:
Okay, if that's what you want. Come on, boys. We out of here.
Jazmine:
Mr. Freeman?
Tom:
It's okay. There isn't enough room for the food and me. Take the food. Leave me. [everyone gets the supplies and ties them on top of Robert's car. Then, Robert carries Tom]
Robert:
Ooh, Tom, you're heavy. [puts Tom in the trunk] Don't die in my trunk. [closes the trunk. Ms Von Housen and the rest arrives in custom-made clothing]
Ms. Von Housen:
Robert Freeman, you, sir, are a terrorist and a threat to the public good! Prepare to be apprehended! [laughs evilly. The garage door opens with Robert preparing for war and drives off] After them! [the townsfolk enters the bus] Get in the bus! [on the road as the bus, driven by Uncle Ruckus, catches them. Uncle Ruckus rams Robert's car and, in response, Robert rams the bus and the two have a struggle. Some of the men from the militia jump on top of the car and they loosen up the supplies and fall down along with the supplies. Thugnificent, in his delivery truck, along with Leonard, appear on the road. Everyone, except for Huey, gasps and screams as Thugnificent crashes the bus. The bus and truck then slide off the road.]
Ms. Von Housen:
ROBERT FREEMA... [Uncle Ruckus shoves her head onto the ground]
Uncle Ruckus:
NEXT TIME, NIGGA!
Thugnificent:
RIDE ON, OLD MAN! I LOVE YOU, ROBERT! I'M SORRY OLD NIGGA! [turns around to the townsfolk] What the fuck y'all wearing?! [The anchorman is in front of Kernel's Fried Chicken]
Anchorman:
We're here at Kernel's Fried Chicken outside of Woodcrest. It now seems that the fried chicken flu was actually salmonella. None of those millions of people projected to die have died. In fact, it appears nobody has died. We are being told there are still large areas without power, meaning many people are still not aware that the crisis has ended. We're going to go now to...wait. I'm seing something here. Uh, it looks like something's coming right at us. [the cameraman switches to Robert's car on the road] Dear God, RUN! [the car crashes into the camera and into the restaurant. The Freemans and the others regain consciousness]
Riley:
[off-screen] Are we dead?
Sarah:
I think I'm sitting on Tom.
Tom:
[off-screen] I'm okay.
Robert:
[to the employee] Ooh! Can I get-can I get a two-piece and a biscuit?
Riley:
And all the fries you can give me? [The Freemans lose consciousness]
