|ProdCode=104
|ShortSummary=Granddad is humiliated when he is taken down by a crotchety old blind man who stepped on his newly purchased shoes.

|Title='''''[[A Date With The Health Inspector]]'''''
|OriginalAirDate=[[December 4]], [[2005]]
|ProdCode=105
|ShortSummary=Tom DuBois is arrested for "fitting the description" of the "X-Box Killer". Huey and Riley enlist the help of Ed Wuncler III and his friend Gin Rummy (who has similar black affectations) to clear Tom's name by the end of the day.

While there, he gets mixed up in a dangerous game of cat and mouse between Gangstalicious and the men that shot him. Ultimately, Riley learns that Gangstalicious wasn't as "gangsta" as he seemed.

|ProdCode=107
|ShortSummary=Featuring numerous references to ''[[A Charlie Brown Christmas]]'', Huey is given permission to write, produce, and direct the school's Christmas play: ''The Adventures of Black Jesus''. It becomes a grandiose and over-budget performance, featuring Quincy Jones as the musical director and many Hollywood talents, but it also ruffles the feathers of the school board for one key plot point. Meanwhile, Riley disguises himself as the "Santa Stalker" and stalks the Woodcrest Mall's Santa Claus, harassing him (and Uncle Ruckus who took his place) until he can "pay what he owe", after not bringing Riley what he wanted for Christmas when he lived in "the hood".<br/>'''[[Guest star]]ring''': [[Quincy Jones]] as himself and [[Judge Reinhold]] as Mr. Uberwitz.

|Title='''''[[The Real (Boondocks episode)|The Real]]'''''
|OriginalAirDate=[[January 8]], [[2006]]
|ProdCode=108
|ShortSummary=When Grandad gets new sunglasses, Riley concocts a plan to con reality television shows into giving the Freeman's free goods and services via a series of increasingly outrageous stories about Granddad, which gets Tom and Jazmine DuBois involved in the act. Meanwhile, Huey's harsh remarks to Jazmine cause a secret agent, who Huey comes to refer to as the "White Shadow", to reveal himself. Huey suspects he may be part of a larger plan to blur his conception of reality, and there is no proof that the man actually exists in reality, as nobody else actually sees him.<br/>This episode is a parody of [[Pimp My Ride]], and [[Extreme Makeover Home Edition]]<br/>'''[[Guest star]]ring''': [[Xzibit]] as himself and [[John C. McGinley]] as "The White Shadow".

|OriginalAirDate=[[January 15]] , [[2006]]
|ProdCode=109
|ShortSummary=What would happen if [[Martin Luther King, Jr.]] came out of a coma after 32 years, instead of dying from an assassin's bullet, and found himself thrust into the 21st century and life in the post-[[September 11]] era? He soon becomes a living legend, until his "turn the other cheek" philosophy quickly takes him from beloved national hero to despised terrorist sympathizer, after his pacifist views of [[Al Qaeda]] and [[Osama bin Laden]] are misconstrued by the media. Motivated by Huey, he attempts to lead a revival of the [[Civil Rights Movement]], but becomes disgusted with the current state of the Black population.<br/>'''Music''': "Wishing" by [[Edo G|Ed O.G.]] featuring [[Masta Ace]]<br/>'''[[Guest star]]ring''': [[Kevin Michael Richardson]] as Dr. King

|Title='''''[[The Itis (Boondocks episode)|The Itis]]'''''
|OriginalAirDate=[[January 22]] , [[2006]]
|ProdCode=110
|ShortSummary=Granddad, with financial help from Ed Wuncler, opens "[[The Itis]]", the only [[soul food]] restaurant in Woodcrest, located across the street from Meadowlark Memorial Park (Reference to [[Meadowlark Lemon]]), a piece of land that Wuncler has desired to own. Its signature entree is Granddad's own version of the [[Luther Burger|Luther]], and patrons at the restaurant would eat at tables designed as beds, so when "The Itis" kicked in, they could go straight to sleep. White people didn't expect it, but they found the food extremely delicious and highly popular, attracting an audience from outside of Woodcrest. They also didn't expect high cholesterol, heart disease, and obesity. As business booms, so, too, do the health and neighborhood problems in Woodcrest.<br/>'''[[Guest star]]ring''': [[Ed Asner]] as Ed Wuncler and [[Candi Milo]] as Janet.

|Title='''''[[Riley Wuz Here]]'''''
|OriginalAirDate=[[February 19]], [[2006]]
|ProdCode=112
|ShortSummary=Riley's affinity for graffiti goes too far when neighbors wake up to giant murals on their homes. Granddad forces Riley to take art lessons in order to keep him from defacing property. Maybe a sweet-natured, psycho, war vet art teacher (possibly, but never explicitly described as an African-American [[Albinism|albino]], who bears a striking resemblance to and is a parody of [[Bob Ross]]) can help reel him in? Meanwhile, Huey (in a spoof of ''[[Super Size Me]]'') decides to see what would happen if he watched nothing but "black television" endlessly. (Huey performs a similar social experiment in [[The Boondocks|''The Boondocks'']] comic strip from [[May 6]] [[2005]] to [[May 14]] [[2005]].)<br/>'''Music''': "Today" by [[Tom Scott (musician)|Tom Scott]]<br/>'''[[Guest star]]ring''': [[Rob Paulsen]] as the art teacher

|Title='''''[[The Block is Hot]]'''''
|OriginalAirDate=[[March 12]], [[2006]]
|ProdCode=114
|ShortSummary=Alluding to Spike Lee's ''[[Do The Right Thing]]'', an abnormally hot day creates tension between the citizens and law enforcement of Woodcrest. The events lead to the attempted shooting and beating of Uncle Ruckus, parodying the real-life events involving [[Rodney King]] and the late [[Amadou Diallo]]. Jazmine, on this hot day, opens up a lemonade stand, with the goal of making enough money to buy a pony. She, eventually, signs a business contract with Ed Wuncler, promising to give Jazmine a pony, named Sammy Davis Jr., as long as she sold enough lemonade to recoup the funds. Jazmine finds out, the hard way, the way the business world really works.<br/>'''Music''': "[[Fight the Power]]" by [[Public Enemy]]<br/>'''[[Guest star]]ring''': [[Ed Asner]] as Ed Wuncler

|OriginalAirDate=[[March 19]], [[2006]]
|ProdCode=115
|ShortSummary=Uncle Ruckus is diagnosed with a life-threatening form of cancer. After seeing "White Heaven" in a dream, and being told by the late [[Ronald Reagan]] that God hates black people, he begins preaching that Black people can, too, go to White Heaven if they hate the black in them, with the goal of making it into "White Heaven" himself. His ideology catches on with the public, even affecting one other African-American: Tom DuBois. Meanwhile, Huey is preparing a mission to free [[Shabazz]] K. [[Milton Berle]], a black man who was unjustly convicted of murdering a police officer in the 1970s despite the overwhelming evidence pointing to his innocence, mirroring the real-life trial of [[Mumia Abu-Jamal]].<br/>'''Music''': "Say I Believe In It" by [[Isabelle Antena]].
