Chapter 6
__________

Now soon as I left Cathys house, they all get up of the floor
then Rufus says Chuck are you okey, then Cathy closes the door
then Chuck said Rufus what the hell just happened, then Rufus said I'll tell ya
she just almost got us shot, right here in this room
then Cathy says you got nerve, almost got you shot? when you sneeking in and out of hotels with him and not telling what I got
Chuck says and what do you mean by that?
Cathy looks at him and says: figure it out!
he says: uhhhhhh Rufus, she do'nt know me, I will cut this bitch right now
come on and try it
wait I swear to God, try it
just try it
Rufus I swear to God, try it
come on, try it
come on, CALM YOUR ASS DOWN!
Rufus says, Rufus says Chuck we'll talk about it later
then Cathy says this shit is said
Chuck says Rufus I'm leaving, are you coming?
Cathy says Rufus, then Chuck says Rufus
Rufus looks at Chuck and says: Chuck you know I love you
Chuck says well lets go he said but I love her too
then Chuck says Rufus what about the things you told me, the things we did, the places we went, the love you made to me..
then Cathy says wait a minute, now I've heard enough of this bull
Chuck says me too, Rufus lets go can't you see the stunt she's trying to pull?
Rufus says I said nobody's going nowere, to we figure this out
Cathy says like I said, it ain't nothing to figure out, so get this fool up out my house
then Rufus said: your house is my house too and I say he stays
Chuck says Rufus Im out of here
Rufus says Chuck hold up, just wait!
Cathy says let him go, Rufus, I need you and Chuck says Rufus I need you too
then Rufus says Chuck, Chuck says Rufus if I loved you(???) aint no telling what I would do (???)
then Cathy says Rufus,
Rufus says Cathy,
Chuck says Rufus,
Rufus says Chuck
then Cathy grabs him
then Chuck pulls him
then Cathy says Rufus, please, if you love me, dont let him ruin our lives
then Rufus looks at Cathy, then he lets go of Cathy, then he looks at Chuck
he walks over to Chuck, and then he kisses Chuck, then he says to Chuck: Chuck I'm sorry, but I'm going back to my wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiife!!!

I finally saw this. A large portion of me feels that ILM is very easily entertained.

The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 12 September 2005 11:09 (eighteen years ago) link

But what does the OTHER portion feel?

The other portion feels like it needs coffee.

The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 12 September 2005 11:14 (eighteen years ago) link

Very entertaining thread, can't believe any of you can't see what utter, utter self indugent dross that song is though.

"any"

Yup. Easily entertained right here. It was kinda like listening to a Madea play without paying a shitload of money.

Candicissima (candicissima), Monday, 12 September 2005 12:42 (eighteen years ago) link

Ha! Okay, I can buy that. I recognizie that the mere fact of the performance's existence is kind of a watershed "WTF????" moment in MTV history but that doesn't change the fact that I thought it was incoherent, haphazard and not nearly as entertaining as it should have been.

The Ghost of Black Elegance (Dan Perry), Monday, 12 September 2005 12:45 (eighteen years ago) link

I think at this point in the Trapped ILM saga, whether or not a given installment turns out to be incoherent or "as entertaining as it should have been" is a good portion of the entertainment all in itself. Especially given that so many people were upset at the soap-opera presentation of the Chapters 1-5 videos and wished it was R. acting it out with minimal props, some of these will have been delighted that he tried it, and many others will have learned, as Most Holy taught, that "you can get what you want and still not be very happy."

Me, I found the performance completely half-arsed and disappointing, but enormously enjoyed watching how Kelly's disconnect from reality enabled him to deliver something so half-arsed and disappointing in such an earnest manner.

If anybody got part 6 of trapped in the closet send to me at:Hanooman390@hotmail.com but make sure it is the real thing like charaters are in the like chuck,rufus,cathy,sylvester please.

Richard Hanooman, Monday, 26 September 2005 00:49 (eighteen years ago) link

three weeks pass...
did no one see the special on "chapter 6" -- the real chapter 6, not the rufus/kathy/chuck bow-tie -- that aired on BET last night?

some facts gleaned:
the saga is written through chapter 22.
chuck's backstory: he was a transvestite hustler in san francisco who moved to chicago and was saved by rufus' preaching.
twan's backstory: he was running drugs from chicago to atlanta and got busted, and he's just getting out of prison.
the guy playing the cop in chapters 6-12 (out on dvd on 11/1) is not the same guy who played the cop in chapter 4's original edit.

also r kelly did an amazing imitation of himself as an old man, asking what chapter he was up to.

finally, a gun that was introduced in the first segment does, indeed, go off.

maura (maura), Saturday, 22 October 2005 21:01 (eighteen years ago) link

No mention of what happened to the old Chapter 6?

Candicissima (candicissima), Saturday, 22 October 2005 22:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, somebody is obliged to YSI to keep us all up to date.

I said the super-happy cheers at the end of the unconvincing skit where the dude who cheats on his wife with a MAN decides to go back to his wife was suspect and made me uncomfortable.

The Intraweb really suxxor sometimes. Deej's feeling is totally justified. So is hstencil's disagreement with it.

So let's call each other nasty names and behave like schoolchildren! YEAH!!!

Besides, only Chapter 1 was any good, anyway.

marc h. (marc h.), Sunday, 23 October 2005 02:56 (eighteen years ago) link

no, no mention of that. maybe it was actually chapter 5.5?

The guy playing the cop is the guy who plays Omar on The Wire!

Matthew C Perpetua (inca), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 18:55 (eighteen years ago) link

Man, I saw the MTV performance of Chapter 6 and I can't believe anyone took this seriously. It was hilariously badly written and performed. "He said this, then she said that, then this other guy said something" ad nauseum.

"Rufus says Chuck we'll talk about it later
then Cathy says this shit is said
Chuck says Rufus I'm leaving, are you coming?
Cathy says Rufus, then Chuck says Rufus
Rufus looks at Chuck and says: Chuck you know I love you"

Surely this is lame. Maybe it works if it's performed by more than one guy but as a one man performance this was just laughable.
