00:00Ma'am, could you please put this on the young lady's check?

00:06Thanks, kid. You're terrific.

00:09Hey, you little wimp. That wasn't funny.

00:11I thought it was hysterical.

00:13Well, how come I'm not laughing?

00:14You know what would really be funny if you went over there and paid for that pie

00:17and paid for the young lady's lunch?

00:20Why don't you pick on somebody your own size?

00:22Look, that works both ways.

00:24Now, you better hurry up, because I'm not laughing yet.

00:30Thanks a lot, Levi.

00:33Oh, it was nothing.

00:37Excuse me.

00:42I was doing the show fame at the time, which was, I have to tell you, I didn't enjoy it at all.

00:49I didn't want to be there.

00:52The cast, they were sweet to me. The kids were sweet to me.

00:56But they would do little devilish things sometimes.

00:58They would smoke weed behind my bungalow, and it'd filter into my bungalow,

01:03and that would give me a headache.

01:05So I'd have to walk out, and we'd have our breakfast on set waiting,

01:09and I'd open my breakfast, and it'd be all gone.

01:12But see, I'm being the baby of the family.

01:14You're used to it.

01:15Right, you're used to it.

01:15Exactly. But they were very sweet and very fun kids, very loving kids.

01:20So they would play pranks. I was the newest kid on the block.

01:23But I was not in a great space.

01:28I was 18. I'd gone through a lot in my life.

01:31I was in a relationship. No one knew that I was married.

01:34I was going through a lot with my marriage.

01:38And it's not a secret.

01:40Everyone knows he had issues at that time with drugs.

01:43And it was very difficult on a kid.

01:46Are you following me?

01:48Cleo, Cleo Hewitt.

01:50And I just wanted to let you know that the way you made that dude back down was great.

01:54Leroy Johnson, you are bad, man.

01:56Well, that was the wimpiest guy in the school.

02:00Well, all I know is he was bigger than me.

02:03You know, you're really hot stuff.

02:06Careful, Cleo Hewitt. Don't make this into something that it ain't.

02:14Well, maybe it ain't yet, Leroy.

02:16That don't mean it won't be.

02:26Because the FACE has won't be.

02:53We'll see you.
