Magical Negro Fight
The setup
The premise
Here’s the bit.
Lawyer Steve Campbell's wife is leaving him, and the office janitor arrives on cue to turn emptying the trash into a gentle life lesson. Moments later a copier repairman shows up with the same folksy wisdom and a cartoon bluebird on his shoulder, and the two elderly mentors recognize each other as rivals. Each insists he found the despairing white man first, and their standoff explodes into a full-blown wizard duel of glowing spells, thrown furniture and supernatural blasts that wrecks the office. When the smoke clears, a maid strolls in to offer the shaken lawyer her own words of comfort, and she does not take kindly to being lumped in with the other two.

Highly quotable.
Sometimes things ain't really broken.
You need to find your own little troubled white boy.
There can be only one magical negro!
