  • Exactly why I watch this series

    10
    Any episode with Principal Edwards is one to remember, as his character is so funny. He appears once again when school in 'Brrrklyn' is closed for a snow day, Chris is the only one who shows up because Rochelle doesnt want them to miss a day off school, so he has to spend the day with Principal Edwards until they get in touch with his parents. When Julius realizes that Chris has gone to school when it is closed, he goes to find him leading to hilarious, selfish Mr Omar to watch Drew and Tonya.



    Rochelle is a robbed on the subway but the robber runs into trouble when the train becomes immobile so he has to wait. She's as brass as gold. It's like she has a death wish, the way she speaks to the robber and the other passengers. Also, the crying lady on the train was hilarious, especially when the robber kept telling her to shut-up. And the suicidal 61-year old man wanted to get shot and save Rochelle but she wasnt having any of it. I enjoyed her plot a lot. Remember when she was robbed in 'Everybody Hates the Babysitter' and she struck up a conversation with the robber? Funnymoreless

  • NOTES (1)

    • Music from this episode:

      J. Geils Band's "Freeze Frame" plays at the beginning of the show.

      Chris and the principal lip sync and dance to Run DMC's "Rock Box."

  • ALLUSIONS (2)

    • Rochelle addresses the robber as "Scarface." Scarface is an Al Pacino movie about Tony "Scarface" Montana, who comes to Miami from Cuba and becomes a powerful gangster. "Scarface" was also Al Capone's nickname.

    • Chris (narrating): I went back in to find crouching tiger, hidden principal.

      This is a play on the 2000 movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which featured several scenes of gravity-defying martial arts moves.
