Chris: (narrating) That's my Aunt Charlotte, but we called her Grievey because we only saw her at funerals. No birthdays, no weddings... just funerals.
(edit)
Grandfather: Knock-knock.
Chris: Who's there?
Grandfather: Pass me them porkchops.
Chris: Pass me them porkchops who?
Grandfather: No! Pass me them porkchops right there! (edit) (The morning after Rochelle's father dies)
Drew: Do I have to go to school today?
Chris (narrating): Usually the only death that could keep us out of school was our own! (edit) Rochelle's Mom: (to Chris) Talk to me like that again and i'll knock you into another family.
(Chris is sitting on a sofa with a different family)
Mom: Who are you?
Chris: You don't wanna know. (edit) Chris Rock: *narrating* My uncle Michael was almost 40 and never had a job. He put the "um" in "bum."
Michael: Hey, sis, how are you doing? Y'all got something to eat.
Rochelle: Yeah...
*Michaels drops all the luggage and rushes inside for the food*
Chris Rock: *narrating* I think he saw a job chasing him. (edit)

Chris's maternal grandmother, played by Loretta Devine, also stars in Grey's Anatomy as Adele Webber.
(edit)
In one scene (that was just imagined), Rochelle is seen saying "Damn, damn, damn." This is a reference to the character Florida Evans from Good Times, who reacted the same way when her husband, James, died.
