Hi, I'm Missy. Today I'm going to give you the recap of the [Adult Swim] truthful and controversial show, The Boondocks. Since Marisa has dibs on anything and everything anime and stupid crude humor, I will do the truthful and real crap (if we ever find another show like Boston Public again). I will do my best to put my two cents in at least 24 hours from the airing. Now lets get this over with.
Show: The Boondocks
Episode: Smoking With Cigarettes
Rating: TV-MA
Summary: Riley is hanging out with a kid that's even a worse influence than Riley will ever be. And this friendship between the two takes an interesting twist when we put a gun in the mix. This is one bad boy that the Maury Show couldn't reform...or show getting the harsh reality.
--OPENING--
*We meet Lamilton. He does bad things. He don't listen to anyone. He likes to hurt people. And doesn't give a shit.
*Lamilton steals his grandmother's car and picks Riley up and go on a joy ride crashing into anything and everything. Offers Riley a cigarette and Riley tries to smoke but gets banged around in the vehicle during the joy ride. Keep in mind, Lamilton is like 8 years old??? Two different ages were given.
*Joy ride over, boys come out the car. He loves doing bad things. *insert demonic music here*
*That night, Riley got his ass whupped by Granddad and his belt. Something we really haven't seen much of lately. Riley walks it off and Huey ignores him.
*On the news, they talk to Lamilton's grandma. Riley's pissed because he didn't speak to the media meanwhile Lamilton is getting "famous" by speaking to the news.
*Riley speaks hood once more and Granddad threatens to whoop him until he pees himself again. That shut Riley up.
*The next morning, Lamilton and his grandma came to Granddad to apologize. Granddad is like contemplating on letting them in. *insert fake-ass apology here* Huey and Granddad sees he's nuts. The grandmother went on and on and on about this tale of the family until he made Granddad fall asleep. They leave and Granddad refuses to let Riley see Lamilton because he knows he's a psychopath.
*Lamilton ends up back in the news. He beats the shit out of his grandmother because she didn't want to buy him fried chicken. He beats her ass. Goes to the counter and orders the chicken. And then beats her ass again. Lamilton don't give a shit. And the grandmother brushed it off. Damn, what a doormat.
*Riley and Lamilton hook up. Time for more bad things. As they leave, a white guy watches them. The terrible behavior begins with tossing things off a bridge onto oncoming traffic. Bags of trash, baby dolls, and even a flaming mattress. And other heinous acts.
*By the end of the day, Riley is tired and wants to go home. Lamilton wants to do more bad things. They argue and then Lamilton suggests going to his house and watching horror movies.
*Granddad gets a visitor, it's that white guy spying on Lamilton. Dr. Doomas is his name. He tells them that Lamilton has NO hope and should be locked away. Granddad knew it and is on board to having Lamilton locked away forever or killed. Huey thinks there should be a better option then death. Dr. Doomas warns them that Riley is in danger since he is with Lamilton right now.
*Meanwhile, Lamilton and Riley are at the house watching Clown-slasher movies. Lamilton likes watching people getting hurt. It's fun to him. Riley tries to leave, and then Lamilton brings out his grandma's gun. Riley is now panicky because of this. Fuck that, he's out. Lamilton grabs him and tells him to come with him.
*Granddad is pissed and wants Lamilton locked up. Riley comes home and before Granddad could say anything...
"You know what Granddad, I've been hanging out with Lamilton even though you told me not to and I may not do that no more. I just need to go up to my room where I belong. No TV, no dinner, no nothing. I might even need to whup myself. Good night y'all." -- Riley

*Moving on, Riley runs into Lamilton and more evil deeds come. They go to Miss VanHousen. The old lady with a lot of guns. You saw her a couple of times last season and once this season getting pwned by the kickball. Lamilton's original plan was to rob her. Then the attack dog comes out. Oh shit, this won't end well. Lamilton shoots the dog.

*Riley and Lamilton leave the scene of the crime. Riley is fed up. He wants out and leaves.
*Lamilton is arrested for shooting the dog. Granddad does victory dance. Lamilton is in the system and in the jail.
*Riley meets Dr. Doomas. He knows everything. But because of a restraining order, he couldn't give his name. He reassures Riley that now that Lamilton is in the system he can't cause no more harm. Or so we thought...
*In class, Riley was looking out the window and sees Lamilton standing right there. OH SHIT. You gonna die! But because of an outburst he's in detention. Meanwhile, Doomas warned Granddad that Lamilton is out of the system. Granddad gets all kinds of objects to take the boy down. Thinking he's part werewolf, ghost, and demon. And so they head to the school.
*After detention, Lamilton meets up with Riley. Lamilton is crazy. He pulls out the gun. He don't care about no one. Riley reassures him and manages to get the gun out of Lamilton's hand. Steals the gun and runs to the top of the school building. Once cornered, he throws the gun off the building and beginning the fight with fists.
*We interrupt this fist fight to bring you Uncle Ruckus.
"What's going on here? What's going on over there? Oh it's just two niggas killing each other. Proceed." -- Uncle Ruckus
*We now return you to the fist fight already in progress. The fight ends up with Lamilton dangling while Riley holds onto him. Riley really can't hold onto him because he's too fat. Granddad, Doomas, and Huey arrive. Doomas runs and tries to release Lamilton so that he would fall to his death.
*Lamilton falls to his...Oh wait, no he's alive. And walking away. Doomas jumps down and tackles him. He's trying to destroy him.
*Granddad, Riley, and Huey leave. But before leaving the rooftop, crowd of people are there. And among that, a little white kid goes to Riley and says, "You got a cigawette?" Thus the cycle begins again.

Wow. This episode was just...I don't even know where to begin. First of all, I feel like this seems like sort of a repeat from last year's episode with the white bully Butch Magnius. He pretty much did whatever the fuck he wanted too. Except Riley's friends with this fat fuck. And then the ending kind of felt...off. Unless they plan on picking this up next week or a later episode. I really can't say. For now, I'm not really fond of this episode for a couple of reasons.
Next week, we see Jazmine, Riley, and Cindy selling candy. But of course, with Riley, we gotta make this into a crazy case. And then spoiler alert, at the end of the preview, we see Ed III with a bullet heading towards him. But I stick to my well thought out theory that stupid people don't die. That's why people like George Bush, Sarah Palin, and Carrie Prejean still roam around.
