HELLO, SCROOGEY!

I'LL KEEP LAVA BREATH BUSY.
OF COURSE, I MEAN LAVA BREATH AS A COMPLIMENT.
HEY, NICE CRASH.

YEAH, ALL OUR PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED.
EXCEPT FOR ONE.
RUN!
I'LL HANDLE THIS.
YO-HO.

COME AND GET ME.
SAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, DEAD DUCK!
YAAAA!
TALK ABOUT LEAVING AN IMPRESSION.
UNCLE SCROOGE!
NOW I'M REALLY ANGRY!
DON'T YOU TOUCH MY SCROOGEY!
COME ON.
WE'RE GONNA SETTLE THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL.
OH, NO!
SHE'S STILL STUCK ON UNCLE SCROOGE.
WE'LL SEE ABOUT THAT!
LOOK, VUL.
I LOVE SCROOGE NOW.
SO IF I EVER SO MUCH AS SEE YOUR UGLY FACE AGAIN
I'LL...

I'LL GIVE IT A BIG KISS.
ONE MINUTE SHE'S READY TO FRY HIM AND THE NEXT...
ISN'T TRUE LOVE WONDERFUL?
WHAT CAN I SAY, SCROOGE?
YOU AND I JUST LOST THAT SPECIAL MAGIC.
YOU COULD PUT IT THAT WAY.
BEFORE WE GO, COULD I HAVE THOSE ARROWS BACK?
SURE, I'VE GOT ALL THE TREASURE I NEED RIGHT HERE.

She's ready to...
Right?
Man:
I'm...
I remember my dad used to say,
"you have three strikes against you in this world.
"Every black man has two...
"that they're just black, and they're a male.
You're gonna have a hard [Bleep] time."
And he said, "if you're gonna do this, than you ever imagined."
May have to open the door.
Y'all have to open that door, too.

Emcee:
Get off the floor.
Get off the floor!
Learn it, and learn it well.
[ Crowd cheering ]
All right, miss Heather!
Ohhh!
Girl, give me those mother[Bleep] heel!
Do you want me to say who I am and all of that?
Woman: "I'm Pepper Labeija, and I'm..." [ Sighs ]
[ Laughs ]
I am Pepper Labeija, the legendary mother of the house of Labeija.
Not the founder...
crystal was the founder.
I...
I just rule it now...
With a soft glove.
And it's important to me to be the mother, 'cause there's so many little kids that I have to look out for.
Although they don't listen to me, and they buck my authority,
I still think I rule it pretty well.
They like me.
I'm one of the more popular ones, and I've been around for two decades... reigning, that is.
You know, I've got more grand prizes than all the rest.

Man:
Gay people... men... and decide to have a competition amongst themselves.
Balls.
I went to a ball.
I got a trophy.
And now everybody wants to know me.
This movie is about the ball circuit and the gay people that's involved in it and how each person's life brought them to this circuit.
It's like crossing into the looking glass in wonderland.
You go in there, and you feel...
you feel 100% right... as... of being gay.
And that's not what it's like in the world.
That's not what it's like in the world.
That's not what it's like in the world.
You know, it should be like that in the world.
This society, going to a football game, basketball... that's their entertainment.
You know, a ball is ours.
We prepare for a ball.
We may spend more time preparing for a ball than anybody would spend preparing for anything else.
You know, a ball is like our world.
The balls, to us, is as close to reality as we're gonna get to all of that fame and fortune and stardom and spotlights.
