The Bernie Mac Show (2001)

Episode Overview

Bernie and Wanda join Vanessa for her school's parent night, where they learn her teacher believes she isn’t being sufficiently challenged and encourages her to run for class president. Meanwhile, Jordan is frustrated after dedicating time to a dung beetle project that results in just a pile of dung. To support him, Bernie helps with his next assignment, a detailed model of an old building, but ends up doing all the work. Vanessa enlists Bernie’s help for her campaign video, where he portrays multiple characters. Her campaign gains traction, leading to an invitation for Bernie to perform at the talent show. Unbeknownst to Bernie, Jordan enhances his project with a new roof, plastic figures, and a fire effect, resulting in chaos as Bernie trips while trying to extinguish the flames.
