JORDAN TAKES A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION ON "THE BERNIE MAC SHOW" FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, ON FOX

Bernie feels that Jordan is ready to walk home from elementary school after noticing other kids in his class doing the same.

Things start out great and Jordan is befriended by a group of boys until they vandalize a neighbor's house and Jordan is forced to snitch on his new friends. Meanwhile, after Vanessa has a wardrobe malfunction and shows off more than just her diving skills at the school pool, she never wants to return to school again on the "Walk Like a Man" episode of THE BERNIE MAC SHOW Friday, Dec. 9 (9:00-9:30 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (MAC-416) (TV-PG L)
