Concluding the four part sixth season opener
kevinolzak13 December 2016
"Florida's Homecoming" concludes with Keith an unhappy resident in the tiny Evans apartment, having broken his leg walking down the aisle, now unable to sign that big contract with the Chicago Bears. Thelma's room is assigned 'Bridle Suite,' since there's bound to be a little horsing around! Florida has to do some fast talking to prevent Bookman from evicting her unlucky family (Michael's college career put on hold for the moment). JJ blames himself for the accident, and to make matters worse Keith's doctor believes that if he tries to play football again his knee won't stand up. Meanwhile, Sweet Daddy Williams (Theodore Wilson, fifth of seven) and his hoods show up to collect on their $1000 loan, plus the $400 a week interest: "when Sweet Daddy casts his bread on the waters, he expects it to come back with extra slices!" Hurricane Florida bowls him over, shaming the loan shark into forgiving the debt, so long as his act of kindness doesn't get back to him.

Ben Powers Keith is the worst

I never liked the character of Keith. The whole falling down and busting his knee . What was the guys knee made out of glass? And then the whining in this episode when he was looking right at JJ when walking down the aisle, it was his own stupid fault for tripping over JJ.

He also was so callous to Thelma , she should have slapped him silly.

I'm glad that Michael stood up for JJ and Thelma and got in Keiths face about how he was having to postpone college to work so he could help support Keith and Thelma living at the apt and how JJ paid for their wedding even though JJ lost his job and wasnt too smart by going to ghetto thug sweet daddy for a loan to pay for it when he had lost his job.

It just showed how bad the character of Keith was to the show.- in later episodes he gets drunk, slaps thelma and even in the series finale , he was still a jerk .

Florida, Keith, JJ, & Sweet Daddy!!!
Florida Bribes Bookman To Let Them Stay In The Apartment Cause They Have Nowhere Else To Go, Florida Was In Arizona All Of Season 5 For A Year And She Comes Back To Take Over All Of Season 6. I'm Tired Of The Name Calling And The Way They Make Fun Of Bookman. His Character Is A Cancer Survivor, & A Dame Fine Comedian & Actor. Keith Yells At Thelma, Keeps Blaming JJ For His Injury, Acts Likes He's The Only Innocent One. JJ Tries His Best To Apologize, But Keith Puts Him Down Everytime. I Don't Like The Way JJ Was Talking About Killing Himself, It's Not Funny, It's Very Serious Thought. Sweet Daddy Wants His Thousand Dollars From JJ, So Florida Gives Him Her Mother's Necklace. He Gives It Back To Her, & Forgets About The 1000 Dollar Payment JJ Owes Him. I Loved That Moment With Sweet Daddy, He's A Great Actor & A Wonderful Human Being.
