>> Stephen: HEY, WELCOME BACK, EVERYBODY!
WE'RE HERE WITH OUR FRIEND ANTHONY ANDERSON.
ANTHONY.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: WE HAVE A CLIP HERE OF A FAMILY REUNION, I
THINK.
I'M NOT ENTIRELY SURE WHAT THIS IS.
THIS IS YOU?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
>> ALL RIGHT, YOU SEE THE COMMERCIAL WITH THOSE THINGS
THAT YOU CAN GO TO THE PARK, THIS IS GHETTO VERSION OF IT.
THIS IS LIKE PLASTIC MY FAMILY FOUND.
( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: WHO IS THAT PERSON
SLAMMING HIMSELF AGAINST YOU AT TOP SPEED?
>> ONE OF MY COUSINS.
>> Stephen: IS HE OKAY?
BECAUSE HE LOOKS LIKE HE'S KNOCKED OUT COLD.
>> HE'S ALL RIGHT.
MY BROTHER GOT ME GOOD.
WHEN YOU DO THAT, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A STURDY BASE.
>> Stephen: WHAT'S THAT CALLED?
>> GHETTO GAMES.
GHETTO GLADIATOR, I THINK THAT'S WHAT IT'S CALLED.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
BUT, YOU KNOW, IT WAS CRAZY, MY COUSINS PUT TOGETHER A
SOFTBALL GAME.
IT WASN'T REALLY A FAMILY REUNION BUT IT FELT LIKE ONE.
IT WAS MY UNCLE'S BIRTHDAY AND MY BIRTHDAY THE UPCOMING WEEK.
THEY GOT TOGETHER, CHARGED $25 FOR EVERYBODY TO COME
TOGETHER.
IT WAS ABOUT 80 OF US THERE.
>> Stephen: SOME LONG GREEN.
YEAH, SOME LONG GREEN.
THEY ONLY HAD FOOD FOR 12 PEOPLE.
SO LET'S ROUND IT UP.
100 PEOPLE PAID $25 EACH.
THAT'S $2,500.
THEY HAD STORE-BOUGHT POTATO SALAD, BURNT BAKED BEANS AND
BURNT HOT DOGS AND HAMBURGERS FOR 12.
NOW, THEY HAD BREAD FOR 34 PEOPLE.
THE BREAD WAS STACKED UP HIGH BUT ONLY ENOUGH MEAT FOR 12.
I THINK MY FAMILY, QUANDA, IF YOU'RE WATCHING, MY COUSIN WHO
PUT IT TOGETHER, I THINK SHE DID THIS AS A RENT PARTY AND
DISGUISED IT AS A FAMILY REUNION BIRTHDAY PARTY.
>> Stephen: THAT'S RESOURCEFUL.
>> BECAUSE THE BIRTHDAY CAKE THEY GOT FOR MY UNCLE ONLY WAS
$8 AND I KNEW IT WAS BECAUSE IT SAID $7.99 ON THE PIECE OF
PLASTIC THAT COVERED THE CAKE.
( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: UH, WELL...
YOU SURE YOU WANT ME TO ADOPT YOU NOW?
>> Stephen: I WAS JUST THINKING -- YOU KNOW, I WAS
LOOKING AT THAT -- YOU GUYS BUMPING UP AGAINST EACH OTHER IN
THOSE INFLATABLE LAWN CHAIRS.
I READ SOMEPLACE THAT YOU HAVE GOTTEN YOUR ASS KICKED BY THE
BEST.
>> YEAH.
>> Stephen: WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?
>> FIRST OFF THE BEST ASS KICKER AROUND IS MY MOMMA.
WEST SIDE OF CHICAGO, SHE GETS DOWN WITH IT.
BUT JET LEE AND STEPHEN SEGAL, NOW, THEY KICK ASS DIFFERENTLY.
JET LEE KICKS YOUR ASS QUICK.
STEPHEN SEGAL IS A LITTLE OLDER IN AGE WHEN WE WERE WORKING
TOGETHER.
HE CAN STILL KICK ASS BUT HE'S SO OLD NOW HE'S GOT A THUMB
MOVE.
HE GETS YOUR THUMBS, THAT'S IT, YOU'RE DONE WITH.
BUT IF YOU HIDE YOUR THUMBS, HE CAN'T DO NOTHING TO YOU!
>> Stephen: PUT YOUR HANDS IN YOUR POCKET AND KICK AT HIM.
>> HE CAN'T GRAB NOTHING!
>> Stephen: SPEAKING OF KICKING ASS, I UNDERSTAND THAT
YOU ALSO CHALLENGED ANOTHER GREAT ICON, NOT TO A FIGHT BUT
TO A CONTEST, AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE I HAVE THIS RIGHT, BECAUSE
I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU AN OPPORTUNITY TO DISPEL A RUMOR
HERE.
>> OKAY.
>> Stephen: DID YOU CHALLENGE STEVIE WONDER TO A BASKETBALL
GAME?
( LAUGHTER ) >> I DID.
OKAY, SEE, WHAT Y'ALL DON'T KNOW --
>> Stephen: YOU WERE GOING TO DUNK ON STEVIE?
>> WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW, STEVIE CAN SEE.
IT'S JUST AN ACT.
>> Stephen: HE CAN SEE?
TEVIE CAN SEE.
STEVIE FLEW ME TO BAG '01 TIME FOR A JAZZ FESTIVAL THAT HE WAS
PRODUCING, AND I'M ON STAGE WITH CHRIS TUCKER AND JOHNNY GILL.
STEVIE WALKS ON STAGE, LOOKS ME DEAD IN MY EYE AND SAYS,
ANTHONY, GET ME TO A PIANO.
I SAID, HELL, STEVIE, IF YOU CAN WALK TO ME, YOU CAN WALK TO THE
PIANO.
HE CALLED HIMSELF, HAD THE PLAY IT OFF.
BUT I TOOK HIM TO PIANO AND HE PLAYED.
I CHALLENGED HIM TO A ONE ON ONE BASKETBALL GAME HE DID FOR
CHARITY FOR HIS SON.
HE SAID, ANTHONY, I DON'T WANT TO EMBARRASS YOU ONE ON ONE SO
LET'S DO IT FREE-THROWS.
HE WON.
>> Stephen: HE WON?
HONEST, HE WON.
STEVIE WONDER WON.
>> Stephen: SO IT'S A LONG CON.
>> I'M TELLING YOU, HAVE HIM ON THE SHOW, PUT STUFF IF HIS WAY,
I BET YOU HE'LL STEP OVER IT.
( LAUGHTER ) STEVIE!
STEVIE!
COME HERE!
STEVIE, DON'T DO THIS!
STEVIE GONNA BE...
( LAUGHTER ) HE GONNA DO THAT!
I'M TELLING YA WHAT STEVIE GONNA DO!
>> Stephen: PLEASE, STEVE J, PLEASE JOIN US.
"BLACK-ISH" AIRS WEDNESDAYS ON ABC.
ANTHONY ANDERSON, EVERYBODY. WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK!
