The Cookout

CAPTIONING MADE POSSIBLE BY LIONS GATE ENTERTAINMENT

Boy: YO, TODD, WHERE THE FLOODS AT?

YEAH, TODD, IS THE FLOOD COMING THIS WAY?

Woman: BLING AND WHEEZER, QUIT HORSING AROUND.

GET TO CLASS.

DON'T LISTEN TO THEM. THEY'RE STUPID.

YEAH, I KNOW.

DON'T WORRY. I'LL ALWAYS BE THERE

FOR YOU, TODD ANDERSEN. DOO-DOO HEAD.

THANKS, BECKY.

Man: TODD, HOW DOES IT FEEL TO HAVE

ALL OF THE EXPERTS PICKING YOU

TO GO FIRST IN THE DRAFT?

BROKE, FROM BRIBING ALL THOSE EXPERTS.

NO, NO, I'M JUST PLAYING.

NO, SERIOUSLY, I'M HONORED

THAT PEOPLE LOVE MY GAME THAT MUCH.

BUT THERE WILL BE A LOT OF GOOD PLAYERS

IN THE DRAFT TOMORROW,

AND THE FIRST PICK COULD BE ANYBODY.

NOW, TODD, YOU WERE RAISED

IN THE GHETTO, THE HOOD,

DRAGGED UP IN THE STREETS

AFTER YOUR FATHER ABANDONED YOU AND YOUR MOTHER.

MY DAD NEVER LEFT. HE'S RIGHT HERE.

THIS IS MY DAD.

NO GOVERNMENT CHEESE?

NO WELFARE?

NO.

MY PARENTS WORKED VERY HARD

TO PAY THE BILLS AND KEEP CLOTHES ON MY BACK.

SO, MR. AND MRS. ANDERSEN,

ONCE TODD IS SELECTED IN THE DRAFT,

HE STANDS TO MAKE MILLIONS.

DO YOU THINK THINGS WILL CHANGE FOR YOUR FAMILY?

WE'RE A DOWN-HOME KIND OF PEOPLE.

WE RAISED TODD TO KNOW

THAT FAMILY VALUES

ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN MONEY.

WHAT ABOUT ALCOHOLISM,

DRUG ABUSE, THE SMOKE, THE DRINK?

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE?

NO?

ANYTHING?

TOMORROW WILL PROBABLY BE

A HISTORICAL DAY FOR YOUR FAMILY.

HOW DO YOU PLAN ON CELEBRATING?

WE'RE GONNA CELEBRATE IT THE WAY THE ANDERSENS

HAVE ALWAYS CELEBRATED FOR GENERATIONS.

WE'RE HAVING A FAMILY...

COOKOUT! COOKOUT! COOKOUT!

WELL, THAT'S ALL OUR TIME FOR NOW.

TODD, MR. AND MRS. ANDERSEN, THANK YOU.

AND GOOD LUCK TOMORROW IN THE DRAFT.

FOR SPORTS TIME, I'M A.C. CHARLES.

AND I'M PEARCE GABRIEL.

GOOD NIGHT.

WHAT WAS THAT? WHO THE...

YOU CAN STOP ALL THAT SMILING.

THE CAMERA'S OFF.

THE CAMERA LOVES ME, WOMAN.

I OUGHT TO HAVE MY OWN TV SHOW.

HOW WAS I?

I DIDN'T COME OFF TOO STIFF, DID I?

SANFORD AND JOJO.

JOJO AND THE SEX.

NO, BABY, YOU WERE FINE.

YOU GO ON UP AND GET SOME SLEEP.

YOU GOT A BIG DAY TOMORROW.

EVERYBODY LOVES JOJO.

I GOT IT! AH!

WHO WANTS TO MARRY JOJO?

I GOT A PERFECT SHOW FOR YOU, JOJO.

HUH?

JACKASS.

I DO NOT CARE WHAT IT TAKES.

THERE IS NO WAY HE'S GOING TO NEW JERSEY.

YO, DUDE, I KNOW I DON'T HAVE THE NUMBER-ONE PICK,

AND THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT.

I WANT HIM TAKING US TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP,

AND HE CAN'T DO THAT ANYWHERE ELSE. IS THAT CLEAR?

TODD ANDERSEN IS COMING TO DALLAS. ARE WE STRAIGHT?

GET HIS ASS HERE.

Marv Albert: WE ARE IN NEW YORK CITY,

THE MECCA OF PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL,

WHERE LEGENDS HAVE BEEN MADE.

LIVE FROM MADISON SQUARE GARDEN,

IT'S THE 38th ANNUAL PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL DRAFT,

WHERE THE NEXT CROP OF YOUNG SUPERSTARS,

LED BY 3-TIME ALL-AMERICAN TODD ANDERSEN OUT OF RUTGERS,

WILL TAKE THAT NEXT STEP INTO THE PROFESSIONAL RANKS.

HI, EVERYBODY. I'M MARV ALBERT HERE ON THE FLOOR

WITH A COUPLE OF THE GAME'S BEST--

ELTON BRAND AND BARON DAVIS.

NOW, ELTON, IS THIS KID TODD ANDERSEN

AS GOOD AS THE HYPE,

AND CAN HE TURN AROUND A FRANCHISE?

WELL, MARV, IF NEW JERSEY SELECTS

TODD ANDERSEN WITH THE NUMBER-ONE PICK,

THEY'LL BE GETTING A KID WITH TONS OF POTENTIAL.

GUYS THAT ARE IN THE PROS LIKE MYSELF, BARON DAVIS,

WE'RE EXCITED TO SEE WHAT THIS KID HAS

AND REALLY WANT TO TAKE IT TO HIM.

A CANDID STATEMENT FROM ONE OF THE GAME'S BEST.

NOW, BARON, DOES NEW JERSEY KEEP THAT NUMBER-ONE PICK

AND TAKE TODD ANDERSEN?

THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF RUMORS CIRCULATING

THAT MARK CUBAN WANTS TO MOVE UP

AND TAKE TODD ANDERSEN WITH THE NUMBER-ONE PICK.

AND WE ALL KNOW THAT WHEN MARK CUBAN WANTS SOMETHING,

HE USUALLY GETS IT.

SO I'M PRETTY EXCITED TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

YES, IT IS ALWAYS INTERESTING

TO SEE IF CUBAN'S WHATEVER-IT-TAKES ATTITUDE

PAYS OFF.

WE'RE JUST MOMENTS AWAY

FOR THE DOORS TO SWING OPEN FOR THE LEAGUE'S FUTURE STARS.

NEW JERSEY IS ON THE CLOCK.

WE'LL BE BACK WITH THAT FIRST PICK AFTER THESE WORDS.

I GOT TO USE THE BATHROOM AGAIN.

WILL YOU PLEASE JUST RELAX? NOW COME ON.

YOU'RE GONNA BE FINE, ALL RIGHT?

TODD, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS HERE TODAY,

NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS,

YOU'RE ALWAYS GONNA BE NUMBER ONE

IN ME AND YOUR DADDY'S EYES. YOU HEAR ME?

THAT'S RIGHT.

WHOO!

SORRY I'M LATE.

I HAD TO PUT ON MY FACE

IN CASE THERE'S ANY CAMERAS OR ANYTHING.

BABY, DO YOU LIKE MY SHOES? WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THEM?

I THINK THAT I NEEDED A REALLY NICE PAIR OF HEELS,

AND THESE GOT THE LITTLE STILETTO THING GOING ON. CUTE?

MOM...DAD...

MEET BRITTANY.

MOM? DAD? OH, IT IS SO NICE TO FINALLY MEET YOU.

I HAVE HEARD SO MUCH ABOUT YOU GUYS.

OH! I LOVE YOUR SCARF. WHO IS THIS BY?

UH, UH, HONEY...

LISTEN, THIS IS VERY ODD, HONEY,

BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT YOU.

OH. WELL...

THERE WILL BE SO MUCH TIME

FOR US TO GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER.

YOU SHOULD BE SO PROUD OF YOUR SON.

HE IS AMAZING.

HE IS GOING TO BE A BIG, RICH BASKETBALL PLAYER.

MWAH!

VERY RICH. COME ON, HONEY. I HAVE SOME PEOPLE

I WANT TO INTRODUCE YOU TO, OK? EXCUSE US?

JOJO? JOJO, WHO IS SHE? WHERE DID SHE COME FROM?

WHERE'D SHE COME FROM? WHERE'D SHE COME FROM?

SHE'S SKANKISH. SHE'S SKANKISH! WHERE DID SHE COME FROM?

WHERE DID HE MEET HER? OH, LORD. OH, LORD.

OK, OK. PUT THE BOOK DOWN. PUT THE BOOK DOWN.

HERE WE GO. HERE WE GO.

UH, PLEASE BE SEATED.

UH...

WELCOME TO THE NATIONAL PLAYERS DRAFT.

WE'RE HAPPY TO WELCOME OUR POTENTIAL DRAFT PICKS

AND THEIR FAMILIES.

MAMA, GET IN HERE! THIS IS EXCITING!

SHOOT!

YOU THINK COUSIN TODD WILL INTRODUCE ME

TO ONE OF HIS BALLER FRIENDS?

I NEED HELP WITH ALL THESE DAGGONE BILLS

EVER SINCE LEON VIOLATED HIS PAROLE.

MY KIDS AIN'T HAD NO FATHER FIGURE.

HOW YOU-ALL KIDS FEEL

ABOUT CALLING VINCE CARTER DAD?
