This mockumentary-style sketch chronicles the unfortunate outcomes for three people—Vernon Franklin, Darius James, and Brenda Johnson—who all chose to "keep it real" in situations that called for a bit more tact. Vernon loses his job and more after confronting his boss, Darius's attempt to be a "real" gangster lands him in hot water, and Brenda's brutal honesty at a baby shower leads to a full-on brawl. The sketch is a satirical look at the misguided application of the "keeping it real" mantra.
