John Witherspoon: Robert 'Granddad' Freeman, Blind Man

Quotes 

• Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : [to Riley]  Make sure you pee before we leave. I ain't going to miss my movie going to the bathroom with you. I'mma let you go in there by yourself and get molested by a nasty white man.

  [to Huey] 

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : What's wrong with you?

  Huey Freeman : I don't wanna go to the movies.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : Why not?

  Huey Freeman : I don't ever wanna go to the movies with you again. Not after what happened last time.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : What happened last time?

  Huey Freeman : We got arrested... and shot at.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : Haa racism.

  Jazmine Dubois : Daddy said I can go the movies, but he said I'm not allowed to see soul plane.

  Huey Freeman : Good, you don't wanna go to the movies with him. He's crazy.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : Hush! You can't see soul plane? Why, lil baby?

  Jazmine Dubois : Because of the types of stereos or something.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : Types of stereos? Oh, no no no, lil baby doll. This is a good theater. They have THX.

  [hums] 

  Huey Freeman : She means stereotypes.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : Stereotypes? In soul plane? That's nonsense. Say how about we tell your daddy we saw something else. Hm?

  Jazmine Dubois : [gasps]  You mean, lie?

  Huey Freeman : That really doesn't seem to be a good idea.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : Hush boy. You know, it's okay to break the rules every once and a while. I won't tell if you won't.

  Jazmine Dubois : Okay.

  [laughs] 

  Huey Freeman : [narrating]  Sometimes I think Granddad may be a bad influence.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : Hey Riley, don't forget the camcorder.

  [outside] 

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : Now the first soul plane was funny.

  Huey Freeman : About as funny as a lynching.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : Hush boy, you ain't even see it.

  Huey Freeman : I never seen a lynching either, but I know they're not funny.

  Robert 'Granddad' Freeman : See! Shows what you know. I've seen funny lynchings.
