Jonah Hill may do most of the talking in this 22 Jump Street preview clip courtesy of MTV, but it's Channing Tatum's limited dialogue here that that will no doubt have people, well, talking.

That's because the guy (or should we say his character, Jenko) attempts—and fails miserably—when it comes to speaking English with what he thinks is a Mexican accent.

But then again, we are definitely all the better for it, as the effort made while chatting with a group of drug dealers is also pretty freakin' hysterical.

Especially when he starts name-dropping the likes of Dora the Explorer and friends.

22 Jump Street is the follow-up to Tatum and Hill's 2011 hit comedy 21 Jump Street.

This time around, officers Jenko and Schmidt find themselves going undercover at a local college as freshman in order to bust up a drug ring inside a fraternity, and of course, the twosome cause endless amounts of debauchery along the way.

Directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who helmed both the first Jump Street as well as the recent smash, The LEGO Movie, the highly anticipated flick also stars Rob Riggle, Nick Offerman, Dave Franco, Ice Cube and Amber Stevens.

It hits theaters on June 13.
