- Hey, man, how you doing?

Got a light, do
you have a light?

- Oh, yeah.

- Thanks.

Yeah, you, where you headed?

Where you headed, New Orleans?

Where you headed, New Orleans?

- Yeah.

- Yeah? I'm on my way
back to New Orleans, too.

Just leaving Lafayette,
visiting my seven year old.

Going back to New Orleans
where I'm in the progress

in process of a project,
I'm trying to write a book

on the homeless situation.

And you know, how the
economy affects it

and you know, how it's not
really the economy problem

it's just a problem without
the economy being bad.

I think everybody should
have a home, you know?

- Yeah.

- I was talking to a
policeman the other day,

she said, you know,
with American being

the best country in the world,
we still the best country,

every person should at least
have one room, you know?

I wasn't thinking
that generously

but it makes sense to me.

Policewoman told me that.

Anyway, I'm writing a book
about the homeless culture

and with the uprising
in Egypt, you know,

in Tunisia all that going on?

- Yeah

- You know, that's all
about democracy, right?

They want democracy over there,

they don't want
dictatorships and uh

but that still wouldn't
make it perfect, you know?

We got democracy here
and that's what we've had

and it still, you know, we
still got a lot of problems.

The homeless thing
is really, you know,

is in my heart to
right and try at least

put some, shine some
light on it, you know?

- [Elliot] What's your uh,

what's the point?

Is it kinda like
under the thought

of the weakest link?

Kinda strengthen the
weakest link of the nation?

I mean god bless America.

- Well, it's not.

Definitely, I'm not thinking
like from a social issue

point of view but the
rich are getting richer,

the poor are get poorer.

I mean, there are
people out there

who gladly take a
job, I mean will work.

You know they're homeless
and they would work

but even if they had a
job it wouldn't, you know,

they can't afford housing.

You know what I mean?

Since Hurricane Katrina, the
price of rent has gone up.

It's like tripled, you know?

It was hard enough
to pay your rent

before Hurricane Katrina.

Myself, I was making
pretty good money

but when I think about somebody
working at Burger King,

you know, and when rent was
$500.00 before the storm

now it's $1,100.00 for
the same apartment.

You know, something's
wrong, you know?

It's just, it's hard
man, it's hard, you know,

and uh, I mean I
think it's something

that I should be doing.

You know, I should be...

God put it in my heart that
I should do more, you know.

I can take care of my family...

(sirens wail)

- [Kid] Jaden, hey.

Look, he's the best.

If he wanna be sick.

- Mimi can't take him?

- No, he probably got sick
from Mimi and her kids

and you know he's not
going back over there

until he gets better.

So what you gonna do?

- I was thinking about
going to acting class.

(she laughs)

They have lessons on Tuesdays.

- [Woman] What, an actor?

Jamaine?

- [Jamaine] Got to do something.

- Yeah, I need to do something

with a steady paycheck.

What about the job at
the cell phone place.

- [Jamaine] It didn't work out--

- Alright, what
about on Bourbon?

- That didn't work out either.

a steady paycheck in

least buy me a car,

take me out once in a week.

allowed to take children

because we don't
have child seats.

There is a Boydens's
Ice Cream Shop

at the corner of
Jefferson and Johnson.

It's within walking
distance, a few blocks.

- [Voiceover] Judgement
is in America today.

It begins in the year 1987.

- He's in essence proven
the same thing to me, too.

Cause I see him as nothing
but a liar from the beginning.

He ain't nothing but
a snake oil salesman.

He's got everything he
needs to get the customer

to buy his shit even
though there ain't nothing

in that bottle.

And from the beginning I've
watched him pick you up

just to drop you down--

- That's because
he's scared, Mom.

You know, I feel like maybe
it's just a matter of trust.

Gaining his trust.

Maybe trust only
comes with time.

I don't know.

Maybe trust never comes at all.

I haven't figured it out yet

but I feel like we
have kids together

so I should give
him another chance.

Maybe I should give
him 1,000 chances.

I don't know when
it will be over, Mom

but I know that in my heart
I will know when it's over.

I'm just gonna work
on this trust thing.

I'm gonna work on showing
him that he can trust me

and then, then we will have
our happily ever after.

(indistinct radio)

You know Mom, I
remember when I was 16

and I did Model Search America

and that woman, she did my hair

and she put all the
professional makeup on my face

and then I went in the bathroom

and when I looked in the mirror,

I just thought oh my god,
cause that didn't look like me,

at all but it was me

and that reflection
in the mirror, Mom

I just thought I
was so beautiful.

(baby babbles)
- [Woman] Alright, Jay.

- I really, I just want to
have that feeling again.

(indistinct talking)

- [Man] Come on.

(bells toll)
(indistinct talking)

(indistinct phone)

- [Voiceover] Okay, sweetheart.

Let me help you understand
this problem right here.

You can do nothing, absolutely
nothing about the things

you just stated.

That is purely up to the man.

I wrote in Act Like a
Lady, Think Like a Man,

a man has to get
together three things,

who he is, what he does,
and how much he makes.

If he does not
get that together,

it is no way he can be to you

what you need him to be.

You just said his
main focus is finances

cause he does not
have it together.

So now, with that being
said, let me read this back

to you, you say's,

"I know with a little
help and guidance,

he will be the man that
is madly in love with me

and wants to marry me."

That's not a true
statement, sweetheart.

I apologize for having
to tell you that

but nothing about this
guy says marry you.

Nothing about it.

See, it doesn't
matter what he says,

nothing about him
says marry you.

See, what he says
don't mean nothing

if it don't match
up to what he do.

I love you and the kids.

Okay, be here for us.

Do something about it.

I want to take care
of you and the kids.

Still it ain't that
(unintelligible)

cause they keep taking you
away from me and the kids.

Nothing about this young
guy says marry you.

What you're gonna
have to do is come

to terms with that.

Now, you can wait on him
to get himself together

and get the who he
is, what he does,

and how much he make in order

and then you might have man.

But it still does not
mean that he'll marry you

and be madly in love with you.

- [Voiceover 2] That's right.

- [Voiceover 3]
That's really true.

- [Voiceover 2] Thank
you, Serena, okay.

- [Voiceover] Good
luck, Darling.

Hang in there, baby.

- [Voiceover 2] Coming
up we got special--

- [Voiceover] Take care
of you and your kids.

Go do you and them kids.

- [Voiceover 2] We have
a very special guest

out of Chicago--

(upbeat hip hop music)

(indistinct singing)

(dog barks)

- Get that dog.

Come here, Chrissy.

(dog barks)

(indistinct shouting)

- Let me hit you
back up, alright?

- [Man] (unintelligible)

- Nothing, just
talking to BM, bro.

Bought the late job.

Security job.

She bought to get that.

- You worry about that, we
need to get that TWIC gear.

- That is?

- Twit card is
like the MasterCard

to getting all job,
like any job you want,

you know what I'm saying?

- Man, stop it.

- I'm serious bro,
for real, bro.

You can get anywhere you want.

- So what it is?

- It's the TWIC card.

It's a card, it's
like an ID card

but it have a
little chip on it--

- Right, dude was
telling me about that.

Dude was telling me but
I thought you couldn't

be a convicted
felon getting that.

- Can't listen to
everything you hear.

He took he and took what
people was telling him.

That mean that stopped him
from getting his money right,

you feel me?

Like, all people, like,
most of the people

on their own, with
that ass, on a river,

you can get on it.

My dad, my uncle, all
them convicted felons.

- But how I'ma get that
and I get even vote?

I'm a convicted felon
for seven more years.

- I don't even know
how that do, son.

Cause they letting inmates vote.

Last time I was in that bean,
you know what I'm saying.

Inmates was voting, you
know what I'm saying.

So I don't know they...

It be a certain conviction.

Like if you got a murder
conviction, something like that,

they don't let them vote

but if it's a drug conviction--

- So I can vote?

- Yeah, you can vote.

Don't ever let
nobody tell you that,

you know what I'm saying?

We go out with nigga's
be saying sometime

cause they heard that
from somebody else

but you can vote.

I voted last time.

- For Obama?

- I vote right there, yeah.

- That's the only time I heard
they was letting people vote,

convicted felons.

- But you could still
vote like cause,

we, we us being young black men,

we don't be worrying
about city council,

we don't be worrying about
the district attorney,

when we should be worrying
about the district attorney

cause that boy is
sinking everything.

- Right, right, right.

- You feel me?

- Right.

- He's sinking everything, son.

- We got to take care
of that card man.

Cause I was gonna go
get that TWIC card.

Cause that right ain't
popping the whole head gaskets

on in that.

- They want us to
do, son, a job like,

like that's broke my back
like how we been working for

four months straight, yeah bro.

And they just laid
us off like that,

like got us on call and
you know (unintelligible)

ain't making nothing.

- Yeah, nothing at all.

He just call me man, in
fact he just called me.

- I'm not even asking
for that bar, seriously.

- He just called me.

We can't live on no
$40.00s a week, thought.

- Dude, that's not even
my $40.00 a week, fool.

Deliveries is $20.00.

We get--

- That's crazy.

- 10 deliveries, we making
$25.00 a piece a week.

That's not what's up,
you know what I'm saying?

- You know what I
think it is, dawg?

I think it's them golds, dawg.

That's what I really think.

Me personally, I'm
gonna take mines out,

you know what I'm
saying, that's just me.

- Man, I'm not
taking nothing out

for the simple fact, son.

I know how to conduct
myself as a business man,

you know what i'm saying?

- Exactly but this stereotype,

this stereotype--

- I'm not bout to let
nobody put me down,

like I got this
cause I wanted this.

You can't judge me for this.

It ain't like I have tattoos
in face, you feel me?

You know what I'm saying?

Dudes with tattoos on they
face chefs at restaurants.

So how you gonna just...

And they have they golds.

You feel me?

- I don't know what you done.

I'm gonna take mines.

Something I want to do.

So I'ma take care of that.

I think I'd be
better off like that.

- (unintelligible) at the top,

mine at the bottom, I'm good

cause I can smile with just
my teeth showing at the top,

you feel me?

I know how to talk
without opening my whole.

See, at the top,
that's all open.

You know what I'm saying?

So, you know, I feel
you should do that.

I'm not doing it do.

You know, I can't...

I ain't letting them judge me.

I'm not letting stereotype me.

You know what I'm saying?

Basically, it's all
about you coming.

See, if I come in
there some baggy pants,

some baggy slacks, you
know what I'm saying?

Fresh and I smelling good
like some good cologne

or whatever like
that, cheap cologne,

they can tell, they can
read you before you even

(unintelligible).

You know what I'm saying?

See, you like that coming
out with button down

without our shirt in our pants.

- Right.

- And you know
that's how we do it.

We feel we got a button down on.

- [Both] We ain't gonna
put our shirt in our pants.

(they laugh)

- [Man] But you have to
put your shirt in you pants

no matter what.

- [Jamaine] I stay doing this.

- [Man] And with the cuffs,
we always won't have.

Cuffs in our...

They allow us to wear
jeans but you don't need

to put cuffs in your jeans.

You feel me?

(sirens in distance)

(heavy breathing)

- [Woman] I should of just
told him to come home.

- [Woman 2] Okay, I think
we might be getting good

on the (inaudible)

- Five dollars off.

I got like a 30 % discount.

She was like, I was like, well

cause if you order
over $1,000.00

you get five percent off,

but I thought they were
doing a 10 % discount

but they're doing a
Valentines discount for 15 %.

So I was like, do I get an
extra 5 % off on top of that?

I was like, you know what,
I needn't worry about it.

I said, I trust it
cause she was like,

don't worry I'll do you right

and I was like I'm not
even worried about it,

I know you'll hook it up

and she hooked it up.

- It takes six balloons
to get out of here.

- [Man] It does?

(she laughs)

- Just don't pass, Lon, sit
down while you're doing that.

- That's it.

- [Woman] Get me some gigs.

If it sells big for me,
I'll give you a percentage.

Every time you get
me out of there,

I'll give you 10 % of.

(exhaling)

(indistinct talking)

(horns honk in distance)

(indistinct PA system)

- What do you care about?

- This.

- Looks like a heart man.

That's like...

- Yeah, I found this.

I was just in Columbia

and I was walking on the beach

and I found this in the sand.

It's good, huh?

(unintelligible) it's hollow.

There's this one
quote they have,

they say uh, where
are you first prepared

to be made a Mason?

And you say in my heart

and then they say why do
you want to become a Mason?

And then you say, because I
want to subdue my passions

and immerse myself into
something greater than myself.

That's crazy but the
first question is

where are first
prepared to be made.

And you go, in my heart.

So the more hollow your heart,
the more you can fill it up

and let the world in, you know?

I got to go though man,
I'll see you later.

- Word, thank you.

- [Man] Yeah, yeah, no problem.

- Finished with the application.

- [Greg] Hey Rob, you want to
come see for a second, man?

- Hey, how's it going?

I'm Rob.

- [Greg] I don't know if
you want to check this out.

- Alright, thanks.

- [Greg] I'm Greg by the way.

Um, had you ever worked
in a coffee shop before?

- No but I can learn.

- So if you hadn't
worked in a shop before

what had made you interested?

- My girlfriend seen
the ad on the window

and suggested I apply
so I just came in

to fill an application out.

It been kind of hard
for us, you know.

- [Greg] So just
kinda like anything

to pay the bills right now?

- Basically.

- We have all your information
on the application.

We got your phone
number on here.

We'll give you a call back
as soon we can, right?

- Nice meeting you, man.

- Go.

(whistles)

Ya, mule.

(engine hums)

What's happening, Jamaine?

Long time no see, dude.

How it's been?

- Man, shit been hard.

It been hard for me,
I tell you the truth.

- I ain't see you
around in awhile man.

How's the kids doing?

- Well, I don't know you knew

but we ain't seen each
other in a long time.

You know I have
another one, right?

- Oh wow, another kid?

- Another kid.

- Man, you've got to
slow your roll, Daddy.

(they laugh)

- It's man, shit been crazy.

I don't have a job
right now or nothing.

- How your folks doing?

How's your brothers?

- Oh they doing good,
they doing good.

The word is they in
Houston right now.

They ain't coming back to
New Orleans no time soon.

- Good to hear, good to hear.

So how's your finances, how's
your financial stability

and life going now?

I hadn't seen you in awhile.

Where you working, I mean
you got another kid now.

- I don't work
anywhere right now.

I just came back
from a job interview

and they didn't even hire me.

I had one dude when he was
looking at my gold teeth,

he was like whatever.

- You know, I hate to say it

but appearance has a lot
to do with job preference

and how your rate of pay is
going to be determined and--

- The first thing he
looked at was my golds.

- Well, when you first
did that, when you was...

I forget how many
years ago you did that

and I saw you, I
wanted to tell that.

You know, that's a downer
and it's something that

it just has to be
a chapter, I guess,

in life that a young
man has to go through

but you know, I think
you'd go further if you

got them taken
out, to be honest.

I think you'd get
better paying job.

You could probably get
on with a good company.

Maybe get you a nice
little work truck

and paid insurance
but you definitely,

your stats would go up
if you got teeth removed.

I promise you, you'd
get a better job.

It's an image.

It's all about an image.

- You got me thinking to
do some things with myself

and person with my appearance.

It's just like basically,
it's hard right now.

- So you renting,
are you owning?

How's your living status?

- I'm living with my
mother in law right now.

- Oh wow.

- Basically, I came to
help her pay the bills.

My girlfriend (inaudible)

- You ain't on the right
roads, little brother.

You ain't on the right
pass, the right roads,

you gotta change your image.

You gotta change you
lifestyle, your habits,

people you associate with.

You got to get ya a face-lift,
a new face-lift on life.

I think you're a good guy

and I know that you are

but you got to prove
it to yourself.

(he yells)

- [Leanne] I know I'm excited
that it's your birthday.

My baby's seven today,
you look so much grown.

- [Boy] She's so grown.

- [Woman] She is so
grown, you're hilarious.

She grown.

- Come on Nick, put
my stuff in here now.

- [Man] Bubba's gonna be the
big six in a couple months.

- [Girl] Nick put my stuff in.

I said put it away.

- [Man] If you hang a
six year old upside down

does he become a nine year old?

- Put my marker in
there, put the top on.

- You won't take a
marker with the top off.

(indistinct yelling)

(they yell)

Come here, look it.

- Stop it, Jaden,
I know that's you.

(somber country music)

- [Boy] Give me that.

- Don't pull it, just strum it.

(non-melodic strumming)

No, no.

Over here.

(strums guitar)

(indistinct talking)

(somber guitar playing)

(balloon pops)

Oh shi...

(she laughs)

Be careful.

(indistinct talking
in background)

- [Leanne] So I was
thinking that one

or that one.

- [Woman] Send that one.

- [Leanne] This one?

What about that one?

(baby cries)
(indistinct talking)

Okay.

- Where's the (unintelligible)

- [Woman] You waiting
for (unintelligible)

(indistinct talking)

- That's it right?

(shouting in foreign language)

- [Elliot] You guys got
anymore deliveries today?

- Yeah, I have one.

I'm gonna give it
to you in a second.

Is the small tomato right here?

Check this please,
check this over there.

- [Elliot] Aright, alright.

- Do something, do
something, thank you.

- Why do I gotta go to
14th Street after this?

- You're not going to 14th,

you're done with 14th Street,

do you understand that?

- I have to go 14th
Street after I'm done--

(he shushes)

- Okay?

Listen to me, there's
something to learn here.

(speaks foreign language)

We can't live on ideas alone.

(speaks foreign language)

(mocks foreign language)

Yeah, keep on making fun of me.

Look in your hands for a second.

- [Elliot] What?

- Look at them,
look at your hands.

Perfect, you can't
live on ideas alone

but you can live on sandwiches.

Look in your hands, look at them

and figure out what
to do with them.

(phone rings)

(speaks foreign language)

(indistinct phone)

- Hey, how's it going.

What's up.

How you doing?

What's happening?

What you got going on in there?

- [Man] Same thing as every day.

Alright?

- [Elliot] Alright.

- [Man] Alright, take care.

(engine turns over)

- Same thing everyday.

Never been a big
fan of that saying.

Fucking bullshit.

Who says same thing,
same thing a different...

Bless you, fucking Jersey.

- Excuse me, are y'all hiring?

I'm looking for a
job, are y'all hiring?

Are y'all hiring?

(indistinct talking)

You know any place
I can go around here

that's hiring?

(indistinct talking)

Okay, thank you.

(indistinct talking)

(indistinct radio)

- That's right.

What's so good about love,

it's void where
prohibited by law.

Order of protection
says your love is void.

(he laughs)

The mayor didn't meant to say
that Irish people drink liquor

what he meant to say was
they make it for sale.

(he laughs)

The mayor didn't mean to say
Irish people drink liquor

what the mayor meant to
say was they make liquor

in Ireland for sale.

That's right, Irish
whiskey is for sale.

(he laughs)

Always told the
mayor, don't say it,

and don't sign nothing.

Say nothing, sign nothing,
and you stay out of trouble.

I told the mayor, say
nothing, sign nothing,

you stay out of trouble.

This is what the
mayor meant to say,

Irish people make
liquor, not drink it.

(he laughs)

Irish people make
liquor for sale,

that's what the
mayor meant to say.

(he laughs)

(whirring metal)

- [Woman] Hopefully
it will come off now.

(whirring metal)

(indistinct talking
in background)

(indistinct talking)

- How you been?

What's going on my brother?

Jamaine?

My name is Arthur.

Have you ever worked
around a funeral?

- No, I'm willing
to learn though.

- Okay are you willing to
give up some long hours

to work here at
the funeral home?

- [Jamaine] Yeah.

- Okay, do you have a
valid drivers license?

Whatever you see in the
embalming room must stay.

We don't go out and
discuss matters, you know,

we have a lot of
homicide victims here

and it's imperative
that you do not discuss

it with family members.

The biggest problem
that I'm having

was when I surrender
my keys to employees

they have a tendency, every
time you send them out

on a errand, they
stop by they house,

girlfriend, or
invite some friends

and the automobiles are strictly

for funeral home
purposes, you know,

and I'm gonna give
you an opportunity.

It's uh, the ball
is in your court.

I'm just asking that
you be very responsible,

abide by the speed limits,

we just can't
afford any tickets.

There's a red light,
I paid two in the past

and I'm just not in any position

to keep paying
tickets like that.

- Okay.

- When we give you a time to
be here at the funeral home,

it's imperative
that you be on time

because families are
not paying for excuses.

They're paying for us to perform
in a professional manner.

I'm gonna take a chance.

Somebody gave me an opportunity

and you being a
young black male,

you need to be given
an opportunity.

I hope that this
relationship works out.

Now, as for the money.

Let's look in terms,
I know you've probably

been unemployed for awhile.

I'm gonna pay you on
a day by day basis

until we can kind of help
you get yourself situated

and we're gonna start
off with $10.00 an hour,

at least eight hours a day.

Some days you may
have to linger,

some nights you may
have to make removals.

When we speak in
terms of removals,

actually saying we're
picking the body up

from the hospital, the
residence, coroners office.

- Then bringing it here?

- Bringing it here
and I have an employee

by the name of George,
you'd be working

side by side with him

and we'd like for you to kind
of clean up your appearance,

you know, because of all those
things work in your favor,

you know, and I always
share this with people,

that corporate America
is not going anywhere.

You can determine your
future, you can determine your

whole life just by your actions.

I hope we can have a good,

what I call, family
relationship here

and tomorrow, you
come in for 8:30

and we'll get started, okay?

- [Jamaine] Thank you for it.

- Do you have a coat and tie?

- No, I can get one though.

- Okay, alright.

Alright, well Mr. Jamaine

I'm gonna have insurance come

to run your drivers licences,

make sure that you're
in good standing, okay?

So I'll see you in the morning.

- [Jamaine] Thank you.

- Thank you, my brother.

- [Man] Take your
hair down, please.

Alright, like it.

What's your name?

- Leanne Miller.

- [Man] And how old
are you, Leanne?

- I'm 26.

- [Man] And where are you from?

- I'm originally from
Buffalo, New York.

- [Man] How would you define
your generation, Leanne?

- I see a lot of
people struggling,

in different ways.

Some people more
than any others.

- [Man] What do people
your age care about?

- Success?

- [Man] Just making it?

- That's what I care about.

- [Man] How'd you
get in modeling?

- I started when
I was very young

and wanted to be a model

and things throughout
my life have taken me

in other directions
but I always come back

to that's what I'd
rather be doing.

So just searching and
finding myself jobs.

- [Man] What things?

- Hmm?

- [Man] What things
in your life?

- Growing up,
childhood difficulties,

and choosing the wrong friends

and then having kids

and lot of things happened

to try to take me off my path

but I always go back
to where my dreams are.

Being a successful
actress and model.

(baby cries in distance)

- I'm cleaning my cheese.

(baby cries in distance)

- [Girl] Nick, I
said that's enough.

- [Nick] I know that,
you just said it.

- [Girl] And you
still won't stop.

- I would when I'm
done with this half.

(indistinct talking)

(baby cries in background)

(indistinct talking)

- [Man] Mommy.

- Hey, baby.

What's up?

(indistinct talking)

What are y'all doing?

- [Girl] I'm making a
sandwich and I liked it.

- [Nick] And I'm
doing my homework.

- Oh my god, what a mess.

Will you watch the
kids for me tomorrow

so I can go look at this house?

- [Man] Yeah, if you
got the money for it.

(indistinct talking)

- [Kid] Mommy, Mommy!

(knock at door)

- [Woman] Leanne?

- Yeah?

- [Woman] I know
you're busy right now

but we need to talk about
what's gonna happen here

the next couple weeks cause,

I got people that are coming
in to stay here and stuff

and I need to know when you're
gonna be moving, you know?

Have you made a decision yet
about where you're gonna go?

- I told you, I'm gonna
look at a house tomorrow.

- [Woman] Yeah
but man, you know,

you said you're gonna
move to another city,

then you think
you're gonna stay.

Nothing sounds real solid.

What do you think
you're gonna do?

What one's looking better?

- I don't know yet.

I'll probably go to Atlanta.

- [Woman] You've got enough
money to get out there

and get set up?

- Can we talk about this later?

- [Woman] No man, we got
to talk about this now.

- No we don't have to
talk about this right now.

- [Woman] Look Leanne,
I'm just trying

to figure out when you
think you're gonna go.

Nick keeps getting in back

and you know, I thought you
were gonna be out of here

by the 1st and now we're
looking at the 10th--

- Really Mom, can't you
just stop for a minute?

- [Woman] No man, you know I
can't keep going through this.

You know, I just want
you to make a decision

and figure out were
you're gonna go, you know?

Y'all need to get
your own place.

You need to get on your own.

- I'll be back on
my own so soon.

So soon.

- [Woman] I love you.

You just got to pick
a path and follow it.

- Man, I can't wait
to get out of here.

- [Woman] Leanne, man
when you gonna go?

- Just leave me
alone for now, Mom.

I'll be out of here really soon,

me and the kids
are gonna go and...

- [Woman] Yeah but you've
been saying that for weeks.

- We'll be gone, don't worry.

- [Woman] You've been
saying that for months, man.

You keep telling me,
oh I got this plan,

I got that plan,
this is gonna work,

that's gonna work out.

How are you gonna out to a
city you don't even know?

You're gonna go there

and you're just gonna
pick a house randomly

and do what?

What are you gonna do out there?

- Me and the kids will be fine.

- [Woman] Well, I need
to know what's happening.

You need to tell me tomorrow

cause I got things going on,

I got people coming in

and I can't wait any longer.

You need to make a decision,
you need to stick to it.

You hear me?

I said did you hear me?

- Yeah, I fucking heard you.

- [Woman] Alright.

(she sighs)
