Ever since Chris entered Corleone, racist bully Caruso has been hot on his tracks. The redheaded troublemaker has mercilessly picked on Chris for the past two seasons of
Everybody Hates Chris, but tonight's episode will have Caruso on the other side of the fence for a change.
Upon getting a dose of his own medicine, Caruso (Travis Flory) relinquishes his title of the school bully. While this is seems to be good news for Chris (
Tyler James Williams) and his best friend, Greg (
Vincent Martella), the two realize that it is up to them to come up with a fast solution when the students desperately scramble to obtain power in the school.
Meanwhile, when a reluctant Julius (
Terry Crews) is forced to take a vacation leave, he tries to find ways to squeeze in extra work without his wife Rochelle (
Tichina Arnold) discovering his secret.
The episode, entitled "Everybody Hates Caruso," is directed by Keith Truesdell and written by executive producer Ali LeRoi.
Tequan Richmond and
Imani Hakim also star in the episode as Drew and Tonya, respectively.
