We've already seen a couple of trailers for the coming-of-age comedy Dope, but none have explored its main character's nerdiness as well as this new one. In the new spot Malcolm (Shameik Moore), the geek-turned-drug-dealer, turns in a thesis paper on Ice Cube's "It Was a Good Day." The "slippery slope" scene from past trailers makes another appearance, but this time it's extended with Malcolm giving a straight-from-the-dictionary definition of the phrase. 

Watch the new trailer, featuring Kendrick Lamar's "i," above. Dope hits theaters June 19.
