Two, four, six,
eight, who do we appreciate!

Everybody down on the floor.
Let's clear the floor down there, gang.

- Clear the floor, the game's over.
- Go home!

They should have stomped you,
man. You could have got that.

Come on, gang.
Break it up down there.

Come on. Go home. Go home!

Man, we could have
went to the playoffs, man!

I know. Well,
how come you messed up, then?

How did I mess it up?
I scored the points.

Well, we ain't supposed
to score no points.

We supposed to pass the ball to you, and
you supposed to score the points, man.

But your head was too
busy in Puerto Rico.

Oh, man, you're talking shit.

No, I'm talking about that
skinny-assed Angel Sandwich!

Angela Sanchez!
Her name is Angela Sanchez!

Oh, you mother...

Hey, man, let's go
in here and shoot a few.

Let's go over here.

Aaron, why don't you do it, man?

Do what, man?

Get it from Angela.
So what if she's one of them?

All your head thinks
is pussy, anyway.

Hey, how you know what
I was thinkin', huh?

It ain't basketball.

They should have dug you when that
ball plunked you on your head.

I just lost my concentration, man.
Nah.

My old man says that's a
downer, you know.

Hmm.
You didn't lose it.

Hey, man, just go get her, man.
Shit.

Let's get out of here, man.

Give me my soda.

Hey, check it out.

You can dig that with Angela.

Hey, man, she's only 15.

And Henrietta's only 14,
and she don't be leaving nobody out.

Angela's not Henrietta, man.

Well, maybe she is,
to her own dudes!

Hey, man, why don't you cut that out?

Hey, man. Hey... Get out of here.

Hey, man, we should check this out.

I don't know, though. You think
we can do it? Come on, it's cool.

I'll shake my head.

Psst. Aaron.

Hey, hey, hey, what's going on?

What's going on down there?

What's going on here?
Aaron, come on!

Come on, Aaron!

Well, if it ain't
young Wilt Chamberlain.

How many points you score tonight?

Now you listen to me, boy.

I could put you on sweet street.

You'd be
Mr. Basketball himself.

Seven feet tall,
hands like a giant.

Just a-shootin' and dribblin'
and layin' em in.

Leave Aaron alone, Beau.

Hey, big thing.

What you want with him, anyway?

Just trying to
straighten his act out, Cleo.

How about straightening my
act, baby?

The boy's all tensed up, baby.

I'm just trying to ease
some of them tensions.

You know, get him to
boogie with the joogie.

You'll see, one day

you'll come looking for old Beau.

Hmm? Asking around,
hopin' and prayin' that I ain't split.

Oh, yeah.
It happens to us all, Aaron.

Thanks to brothers like you.

Now, listen, you just
take care of business.

Mmm?

Aaron, you stay clear of that
Beau, you hear?

'Cause what he's got,
you don't need.

Aaron.

Ain't you kind of late tonight?
I had a basketball game.

Win or lose?
Uh, lost.

Gets that way sometimes.

Home, Pop.
Mmm-hmm.

Oh, nice run.

Yeah.

Seventy-five yards.

I'm going to my room, Pop.
Goodnight.

Um...

How'd it go?

Oh, we lost.

How many points you score?

Um, 29, I think.

High?

Both teams?

Well, then you won.

How many times I got to tell you, it's
not whether you win or lose that counts,

it's how many points
you score in the game.

That's all they care about, points.

That's what they pay for.

Let me show you, boy.

"Two thousand,
three hundred..."

Abdul-Jabbar scored
2,325 points in college,

and they paid him a million
dollars just to sign a contract.

Now that's over $400 a point.

$800 a basket.

Do you think Abdul-Jabbar cared
a damn how many games he won?

Points. That's all Abdul-Jabbar
had on his mind.

Now, how many points they
give you for the season?

Um, 310.

You know how many
points Abdul-Jabbar had

the season he was 16?

Uh, 276...

That makes you 33... Thirty-four
points ahead of Abdul-Jabbar.

Now come on over here.
Let's see how much you've grown.

Since yesterday, Pop?
Get on over there. Get over there.

Now hurry up, now.
Hmm.

Stand up straight.
I am standing up straight, Pop.

Any difference?

I can't remember whether the line
was above or below yesterday.

Seems to me it was below it.

That makes you a fraction
of an inch taller. Oh.

Oh, don't worry about it, Aaron.

Some boys shoot up
faster than others.

Well, I feel taller already, Pop.

And you are, Aaron.

You're going to make it
the only way it counts.

Them pros come to
buy my boy's talents,

I'll see they pay
what your talent's worth.

$500 a point.

$1,000 a basket.

They won't put it to you,
the way they did me, Aaron.

They won't say, "Go out there
and prove your worth, boy,

"then we'll see what
we want to pay you."

And they won't tell you, "Go out there and
stop that man running with the ball."

And when you say, "I'm a runner
myself, I'm All-American."

They won't answer,

"Not on this pro team, boy.

"You're what we want you to be.

"And right now we want
you to go out there

"and stop that man
running with the ball."

And that man breaks you to pieces.

I'm going to practice shooting
every chance I get, Pop.

You do that, Aaron.

Remember,
it's them points that count.

Hey, Ike.

How about a little, uh, hot sauce.
Tabasco, or something.

Hey, Ike, you know what story
I haven't heard in a long time?

Yeah, what story's that, Beau?

The one about how Jim
Brown put you in the

bar and rib business.

Now that is a beautiful story...

About how they put you in a game to stop
him from making all them touchdowns.

And by the fourth quarter,

old Jim Brown was using you
to wipe his cleats off on.

Sure was a good story.

Hey, and I hear tell
that they're gonna make...

Son of a bitch.
...a motion picture out of it in Hollywood,

with old All-American Ike James,

the barbecue rib king,
playing the lead. Mmm.

With Jim Brown.
Ain't that right, Ike?

Whatever you say, Beau.

Yeah, well, uh,

how about a little more
pepper and onions, brother.

Mmm-hmm.

Solid. Solid
on the hot sauce.

Hey, Willie's going to
have a cold plate of ribs,

if you don't hurry up
and get a move on.

Man, that Beau is something else.

Hey, man, pick up on that shit.

Don't let my old man see that.

Man, he's seen it
already. Damn.

Hey, man, you almost ready?

After the crowd
gets out of here, man.

You ain't chickening out, are ya?
Who said I was?

How you fixed?

Keeping my friends in the pink.

Any hanging loose?

We're running dry.
Things are a little tough.

Don't know when we'll be
able to make a connection.

We need some to hold
us over for awhile.

I'll see what I can do.

That's what it's all about, Beau.

You help us, we'll help you.

When can you let us know?

When I give you a call.

The sooner, the better.

No use making those freaks
crazier than they already are.

I'll be in touch.
Ciao.

Maybe she ain't here yet, man.

Man, don't panic.
I don't see her.

We are the best.

Hey, here she comes.

Oh, that's great!
Don't worry.

Now what?

Leave it to me.

That's right, baby.

Hey, man, what's with the ball?
Hey, listen...

Man, what's with the ball?
Oh, man, I'm sorry...

You almost hit the girls
with the ball, man.

Yeah, look...
Man, what's wrong with you?

No, nothin', man.
I'm sorry, you know.

You're sorry? You're gonna be sorry.
Hey, that was a nice game...

Let's get out of here, Angela.
Come on. Come on.

Wait.

Whew! Hey, come on,
let's go down in the subway.

# Alli viene el negro, mulata

# Alli viene el negro
Alli viene el negro, mulata

# Alli viene el negro
Alli viene el negro, mulata

# Ooh la la la la

# Ooh la la

# Ooh la la la la

# Ooh la la

# Ooh la la

# Ooh la la

# Ooh la la

# Ooh la la la la la

# Oh yeah

Who told you you can pick a lock?

The fuzz.

My boyfriend, Carlos,
would have that open in no time!

Then, get Carlos!
He's in the joint!

Crazy!

Tell him to pick his ass out.

Let's get out of here, Angela.

Then you can stay here by yourself!

Hey, come on.

You know, I hate horses,
except these horses.

All right, Willie,
do your thing, man.

Here come the juice.
Here come the juice.

Okay.

Oh, horseback ride.

- Okay.
- You're crazy.

- Oh, yeah! Yeah.
- Can this thing go any faster?

Giddy up!

Get off of me!

Don't go anywhere!

Yeah!

All right! Yeah!

I'm sorry you lost the
basketball game, Aaron.

What are you sorry about?
Your team won.

I'm not sorry we won,
just sorry you lost.

Hey, I'll race you.

You know, I've lived in a lot of
different places besides Harlem.

New Orleans,

Miami, Atlanta.

You fly around like
a bird or something.

Yeah, my mama gets bored a lot.

Same thing happened to my old lady.
She left my old man,

split for Paris.

Paris? What does
she do there?

Just lives, I guess.

She's a dancer.

I remember she was always
going out nights, dancing.

Well, why didn't she
take you with her?

I'm too much like my old man.

My dad blows a trumpet
in Los Angeles.

You ever see him?

Sometimes.
He comes back at Christmas.

He's lonely.

Hey, where you been?
How you doin', Samson, huh?

Huh? What's
happenin', man?

Better get off these steps before
you fall, man. Okay?

All right?

Aaron.

It's Ike.

It's been goin' on
for about an hour.

Now, you be careful,

'cause you know how he gets.

Yeah, I know.

Thanks.

Where you been?

Movies, Pop.

Went to see a movie with Willie.

You're lyin'.
I'm not lyin'.

You black-ass bastard.

You can't outsmart your old man.

You ain't talking to some dumb
nigger that never went to school.

I went to college.

I was All-American.

I know, Pop.

You think all I did in
school is play football?

Hell, I went to classes.

Learned psychology and business.

You think all I can do is run some fuckin'
bar and take shit from everybody?

I do it for you.

I ain't your mama,
runnin' out on her responsibilities.

She didn't give a
shit for you, boy. You know that?

I don't know why I should either.

I don't know why I should ruin my life for
someone whose own mama didn't want him.

I can take care of myself, Pop.

Well, do it, and stop
fuckin' up my life!

You know what I could
have done without you?

How many times I wanted to split?

Just get the hell out of here!

I'm still a young man.

Well, what right have you got...

Aaron, I...

I didn't mean what I said.

I just have to have
someone to hurt sometimes.

And you're all I got.
All I got.

I didn't mean any of it,
you know that, don't you, boy?

Damn your mama!

Leaving us.

It just wasn't right.
It wasn't right.

- Who's your favorite artist?
- Hmm, Picasso.

That's not Picasso!
That's Henry Moore.

I know that.

You know, if you could
touch it real soft like,

it almost feels like a real woman.

It don't look like no woman I know.

How many women do you know, Aaron?

Um, a few. One or two.

Well, if you could touch it,
it wouldn't bite you.

Hey, it's not a basketball, Aaron.

You have to be
real soft and gentle.

It's a beautiful work of art.

All right, I give up.
Who is it?

That's a statue
by Rodin, of Balzac,

a very famous French writer.

Hey, let's go sit down.

Hey, how do you know so
much about art anyway?

Sister Teresa,
at St. Francis.

Oh, man.

"Oh, man," what?
Oh, man, you people.

What do you mean by "you people"?

You Puerto Ricans,
and your sisters and saints.

And what about you people?
With your reverends and "lawdies"?

"Oh, Lawdy, Lawdy, here come
the Reverend now.

"You gots any
happy dust for sale?"

Black people aren't
like that anymore.

Since when, this morning?

I'm sorry, Aaron, but I just can't
let you make fun of Sister Teresa.

She's the best friend I have.

Angela.

I'm sorry, too.

You know,
I really had a nice time today.

Yeah, I had a nice time, too.

I'm glad you liked it.

Did you get everything
your mother wanted? Uh-huh.

Here, taste it.
What is that?

Just taste it.

Just taste it.
What is it?

You like it?

Yeah, it's cool.

Come on.

I live across the street.
Over there.

Well, I can walk you.

No, no, I can go the rest
of the way by myself.

Listen, Angela, I dig it, but,
uh, nothing's going to happen.

Aaron, please.

I had a good time.

Well, maybe we can
go out again sometime.

Si.

Hey, man!

Which one?

We don't like no outsiders
fuckin' with our women, man!

I'll teach you a lesson, maricon!

Hey, chico.

Yeah, you!

So, you owe me one.

Yeah?

Hey, good brother, where you been?
I've been looking all over town for you.

That's where I've been.
We must have just missed each other.

What's up?
Look, Duke, I got a special order.

I could use all the
high-quality shit I can get.

So what's new?
Couldn't we all?

I mean a heavy score, man.
Like everything I can get my hands on.

How about a thumb and a forenail?

Look, it can't be that
damn bad out there.

If it's not that bad, Beau,
then why are they coming to you?

Well, what about the Turks?
The Turks?

How are you at taking little
white sacks out of tight assholes?

Because that's what it's going to
take, dealing with the Turks, man.

All right, Duke. Listen, if you
hear anything big, you let me know.

You're in on it. Yeah, okay, Beau,
if I find anything, I'll let you know.

Later.
Solid.

Dried up?

Dry as a witch's tit.

That's why those
guinea niggers came to me.

What you gonna do?

Hang on by the skin of my teeth.

Everything will be all right.

Beau, be careful.

They're fuckin'
on my turf now, baby.

Yeah,

you'll feel right at home
when they bury you.

No way.

Madison Square Garden, son.

One day you're gonna
bounce your ball around

in there and amaze everybody.
Yeah?

You know, greatness rubs off, Aaron,
and no one's greater than Walt Frazier.

Yeah, well, how do you know he's
going to let us watch him practice?

Who, Walt?
Yeah.

Because he's a football fan.
Probably seen me play many times.

Besides, he's a fine gentleman,
and likes to encourage young talent.

And you got talent, son.

Maybe you should have
called him or something.

No, I left a message on his service.
That's enough. Come on, come on.

Hi, what do you want?
My name's Ike James.

Uh, this is my son, Aaron.
We come to watch Walt Frazier work out.

Ah! You got a pass?

Well, Walt's an old friend of mine.

He told me to just stop on by.

He didn't say anything to me.

He said it to me.
Uh, Pop.

- We just go on in.
- Uh-uh.

I can't let you in without a pass.

Well, you tell Walt Frazier,
Ike James and his son are here.

Ha! No way, man.

Pop.

Walt used to see me play,
All-American. Ike James.

Look, Mister,
I don't care if you're Jack Armstrong,

the All-American boy, you're not
getting in there without a pass!

You telling me I can't go in there?

Yeah, that's exactly
what I'm telling ya.

Then we'll just stay
right out here until

Walt Frazier comes out.

Don't need a pass for that.

Uh, Pop, that's okay,
it's not that important.

Well, we'll see Walt later.
We'll wait over here.

I'm Ike James, All-American.
Security guard talking to me like that?

I used to play ball,
I was really somethin'.

He doesn't know what the hell he's talkin'
about. Don't know what he's doin'.

Hey, Aaron. Aaron, look.
Come on, come on.

Hey, Walt!
Hey, hey, Walt. Um...

Excuse me,
Mr. Frazier.

My name is Ike James, uh,

I used to be an
All-American in college,

played pro ball
for a couple of years.

Uh, this is my son, Aaron.

Uh, come on, say hello
to Mr. Frazier, son.

How you doin'?
What's happening, Aaron?

Come on, shake hands
with him, son. Shake hands.

Well, you see, Walt, he wants to be
a basketball player like you someday.

He's got a lot of talent.

Basketball's all
he's got on his mind.

Yeah, I can see that.

Maybe you can give him
a few words of advice.

Well, Aaron, if you work hard, man,
you can be anything you want to be.

And brother, I mean anything.

Well, nice meeting you, Mr. James.
The pleasure's all mine.

That's a fine gentleman
for you, son.

See what I mean?

Yeah, I see.

# I said I've got a feeling

# I'm about to lose control

# I wanna share this feeling
with everyone I meet

# I wanna clap my hands and
I wanna move my feet

Hey, this is something else, man.

# Deep down in my soul Yeah

Hey, man, do you believe
this shit? Look at this.

That's the same guy you was telling
me about? Yeah. God damn it!

# Ooh, going on through me

Thank you, thank you very much.
I'm glad you enjoyed that song. And, uh,

I just want to tell you that
we're going to take a little break

and we'll be back in about
15, so stay cool.

Punk ass!

Kick his ass, man. Hey, man,
I'm gonna go straighten this out myself.

Yeah, you better.

Aaron, what are you doing here?
Who's the dude?

A friend.
A boyfriend, huh?

That's my business.
I saw you with him this afternoon.

Were you spying on me, Aaron?
No, I got better things to do.

Now, come on.
I can't leave!

Why not?

Because I'm with Ricardo.

And you'd rather be with
him instead of me, huh?

I didn't say that!
Then what?

I made this date a long time ago, Aaron.
Really, before I knew you.

Come on.
I can't.

I'm going to give you
one more chance. No.

Hey, man, how come she...
Shut up, man!

Right now I'd like to do a song
for you that I wrote entitled, Why.

# Why can't they see

# That a love like ours
was meant to be

# Oh, darling Why can't they see

# That a love like ours
was meant to be

# I was thrown into
this crazy world

# And I never had me
the love of a girl

# You came and showed me
that love could be found

# No one's got the right to
tell me I can't have you around

# Oh, darling Why can't they see

# That a love like ours
was meant to be

# Oh, darling
Why, why, why can't they see

# That a love like ours
was meant to be

# I was born in an old tin shack

# And all I had, Lord...

Here, man, take this to her. Me?

Yeah, you!

# When you're on your own
please obey the golden rule

# Oh, darling
Why, why, why can't they see

# That a love like ours
was meant to be

# Oh, darling
Why, why can't they see

# That a love like ours
was meant to be

# All right

# I wanna know, now I wanna know

# Why does this world
have to be so mixed up

# I love ya
And I got to have you darling

# Yeah
But why, why, why... #

Good night.

Don't, Ricardo.
Why not?

Because I don't want you to.
Come on, baby.

I said, no.

Christ!
What a drag!

Shit!

Oh, Aaron!

Angela, love me.

- I guess that's what it is.
- Angela, is that you?

Angela!
Si, mommie.

Con quien estas?

Con Ricardo.

Sube, que ya es tarde.

Ya, mommie.
I got to go.

Ahora mismo, Angela!
Ya voy, mama!

When am I going to see you?

Soon. Angela, immediatemente!

Si, mama!

Angela, do you really love me?

Angela!

Hey, Willie!

All right, I'm coming.

Hey, man, where you been, huh?

Visiting the Vice Principal.

Hey, listen, man. Uh,
I need someplace real cool, you know?

Angela?
I don't know yet, man.

Yeah? Oh, shit.

Just in case.
Just in case, man.

Someplace solid, you know.
Oh, come on the bitch, man.

Get out of here, man.
That's all you think!

Get out of here! Hey, man... So you
finally got it, huh? I told you, man!

Shit, it's condemned!

It's still standin', ain't it?
Now what do you want?

Come on.

I don't know, man.

Hey, come on,
you ain't seen it yet.

Come on.

Hey, man, what is this?
Oh, come on, man. Damn!

Come on.

Here it is.

Here, man, honeymoon suite.

This ain't shit.

Hey, man, it beat the basement
where we take Henrietta. Shit, man.

You got candles and everything.

You don't bring Henrietta up here, huh?
Shit, no, man.

I bring real chicks up here, Jack.

I mean, some as old as 20.

Your ass!

Man. I mean,
take a look at this mattress.

See them busted springs?
That is me.

Looks like Henrietta to me, man.
Shit.

Well, it's good enough
for your first time.

Hey, uh, who said it was
going to be my first time?

Hey, but with a classy chick like Angela
it is. You know, if you want my advice,

you'd better get it on with somebody
who knows what they're doin' first.

I can handle it, man.
I can handle it.

Handlin' it ain't no big thing.
You gotta get past that.

I'm cool.

Mmm-hmm.

Well, you just let me
know when you're comin',

and I'll split.

Looks like everything else is cool on this
end, so what I think you should do is, uh,

help give Duke a hand.
He's, uh, working everything out.

Okay, I'll get over to
the place this afternoon.

Solid.

Okay, I'll see you later.

You said, like, you were
going to be in touch.

I said when I got a flash. As a matter of
fact, I was going to call you tonight.

You got a connection?
There's no question.

How much can you get?

Five keys.
As pure as ivory snow.

What's the price?

Two hundred thou.
Two hundred thousand?

You want a bargain, you go to Macy's.
You don't come to me.

When can you get it?

About a week.
A week?

What is he, some kind of
a damn parrot or something?

You black mother...
Hey, cool it, man,

unless you want to wear
your face on backwards.

Basta.

The connection of
yours, how heavy is he?

Well, he's a Turk.
Is that heavy enough?

I'll be waiting for your call.
Pull over.

Beau, don't try to fuck with us.

So, you won't be
home tonight, Beau?

Oh, I got a customer.

Bye.

Who is it?

Um, Aaron.

Oh, hi, Aaron, come on in.

I was beginning to think
you'd chickened out.

My old man was late leaving.

Well, you wanna sit down?

How about a taste?
Something to relax you.

Uh, I don't need to be relaxed.

I'm cool.

Aaron, you sure
you want it like this?

Sometimes it's much nicer
with someone you care about.

Someone you really love.

Maybe you don't
have anyone right now.

I... I have somebody.

And you still want...

Well, lover.

Come on.

It's better in bed.

Beau said

Cleopatra never had
a pad like this.

You know, he let me fix it up.

Aaron.

It's better like Adam and Eve.

No threads.

Aaron, honey...

Now, don't be upset.

It happens that way sometimes.

I'm not upset.

Oh, Willie was right.
Who's Willie?

My main man. He said the first time
with a real woman was different.

And I just got finished
my first time.

Thanks, Cleo.

Yeah, you'll be all right.

Aaron, what are we... Where are
we going? Just follow me, okay?

What's in here?

You'll see. You'll see.

Aaron, I'm afraid.
Don't be such a girl. Come on.

Aaron, no. Oh, come on, it's okay.
Come on.

Well...

What's this?
A clubhouse?

No, no.

That's what it looks like to me.

You, uh,
you want to sit down over here?

Okay.

Uh, how about a drink?
You know, something so you can relax.

"Relax"?
For what?

Uh, you know, something so you
can, uh, smooth your nerves.

Well, it's better Adam and Eve
style, no threads. You dig?

That's what you had in mind?

Oh, Aaron.

Angela!

Angela!

Angela!

Angela!

Just leave me alone.

I just wanted... Just leave me alone!
I know what you wanted!

You're just like the others.

It's the only reason why you
bothered with me. No, it's not.

It is.

You thought you could get me
up to that clubhouse of yours!

It's not a clubhouse.

It's probably where you take
all your cheap girlfriends.

No, it isn't.
You're the first.

I mean, you're the first girl
I ever took here.

Why? Because you
thought I'd be so easy?

I didn't think you'd be one
way or the other. I thought...

I like you.

And I thought you liked me.

And if we both liked
each other, we could...

We could...

Shit!

Aaron, where are you going? My old man
was right, all that matters is points!

Aaron!

I've never been with a man before.

Yah! Come on, lay it on me.

So cool! So cool!

Hey, man, so you
really did it, huh?

For days.
Oh, yeah?

Huh.

Whew. Hey, so when are
you going to do it again?

Whenever I want.

Oh, wow!
Hey, did she fight?

Only when I quit.
Oh, no shit? All right.

Yeah. Cool.

I bet I got something you'll like.

You better find someplace
else to play, Wilt.

Hey, come on, Aaron, let's split.

How much could you get?

Is this it?
What?

I had to bleed for that shit.

The Turks are the only ones
who got any stuff out here.

And they're keeping it
in the family.

Now trust me, Beau,
that's pure stuff.

I need much more, Duke.

The world needs a new head, man.

Listen, what's the matter with
you, man?

You want the stuff or not?

Beau, this big supply you've
been rapping to me about.

I hope you haven't made
any wild-ass promises.

You know what I mean, Beau.
Promises that you can't keep.

Thanks, Duke.

When you going to make it again?

I don't know, man.

Something bringing you down?

Oh, it's just that real women
are just too tough, man.

Yeah, you can say that again.

I mean, you never know what
they're going to do next, man.

It's like,

catching flies with your
toes or something.

Yeah, I can dig it.

Ooh!

You know, I was thinking...

You know, maybe we should turn
this place into a clubhouse, man.

A clubhouse? Yeah.
We could have a nice place, man.

Get some more members,
have meetings.

Have parties. Get Henrietta up here.

Whoo! Hey, wow!

And there go our clubhouse.

Catch you later, lover boy.

Can I come in, Aaron?

I haven't seen you
since that afternoon.

Been tied up.

You know something?

It's better Adam and Eve style,

no threads. Dig?

# Angela

# Do you really love me

# Angela

You haven't been cheating on
me, have you, baby?

Where you been?

Oh, I've been out of town.
You know how it is.

Couldn't wait to get back to you,
though, baby. You're the best.

Well, I'm glad you came back.

All right, beat it!

What's going on, Cleo?
I said beat it, mother!

What about the money
I gave her at the bar?

File a complaint at
the Better Business Bureau.

What the hell's going on?

He's one of my best customers.

Listen, baby,
you are going out of business.

And what are you going
to do for silk shirts?

Listen,
I got this deal all worked out.

Don't you always. Oh.
Five kilos worth.

You really got it, Beau?

All right, you ready to deal?

Five keys, like I said.

Only now it's going
to cost some more.

Two hundred and fifty thou.

Hey, man, haven't you heard?
The dope depression is on.

It's dry as a desert out there,
and old Beau is gonna bring the rain.

Well, listen. Take it or leave it.
I got a lot of people in line.

Yeah.

You get the money,
I'll be in touch.

Right.

Go home and pack your bags.

What for?

California, Mexico, Europe, Africa.
I just want to see the whole world.

And you want to take me with you?

Now who else knows
my shirt size? Hmm?

Hey, Michelangelo,
you ready for dinner?

Yeah, in a minute.

Well, how's it look?

Like the Sistine Chapel.

How you know about
that stuff anyway, huh?

Sister Teresa.
Sister Teresa. Right.

That's okay.
I'm going to see it myself someday.

We're going to see it.

Hey, uh, your mother still think
I'm, uh, Ricardo or somebody?

Oh, your pop still
think I'm Willie?

Hey, uh, when we gonna do it, huh?
Do what?

You know what I mean, get married.

"Get married."
Aaron,

that won't be for a long time yet.

I don't want to spend the rest
of my life here in Harlem.

What, you want to jump around from place
to place just like your old lady, huh?

No.

But I know there's someplace
a lot better than this.

And besides, before I settle down,

I want to see other
parts of the world.

All those places Sister
Teresa's told me about.

That takes a lot of bread.
Not so much.

Besides, basketball players
make a lot of money.

$400 a point, $800 a basket.

And if you can't play
basketball, well,

you're gonna have to be a
doctor, or a lawyer.

If I don't get no taller,
I better start improving my grades.

And you know I'm going to help you.

Lawdy, Lawdy, if this here chicken
don't look good enough to eat.

Hey, I poured mucho Tabasco over
the chicken, huh? Get out of there.

Shh, shh.
Get the candles.

What...
What about the smell?

He's going upstairs.

Who do you think it was?
I don't know.

Whew, he's gone.

Maybe he was looking for us.

For what?

We're not supposed to be here.
Uh-uh. No way.

Then why was he here?

I don't know.
It beats me.

Aaron, let's get out of here.

Now, there's nothing to be afraid of.
I'm not gonna let anybody hurt you.

Come on.

It's just gotta be somewhere.

What, Pop?

That little heater.

Well, maybe it's in the other closet.
No. Uh-uh.

I remember. It was in this closet.
In the corner right next to...

The stove is missing, too.

Maybe we was ripped
off or something.

A portable heater
and a camper stove?

Well, that ain't nothing. Somebody beat
old man Johnson for his false teeth,

and he keeps them
in a glass next to his bed.

You tell
some funny jokes, don't you?

I'll get it.

Now where in the world is...

I'll be doggone...

- Hello? Oh, hi.
- Hello, Aaron.

- This is Willie.
- Who is it?

Uh, it's Willie, Pop.

Can you talk?
Sure, I can talk. Go ahead.

Well, did you go there today?

Yeah, I looked all around.
Nothing but old empty rooms.

Well,
why do you think he went there?

I don't know.
Just looking, I guess.

Well, maybe it was
something he had hidden.

Well, he got it.
He took the thing, he won't be back.

I don't know, Aaron.

Oh, don't worry about it.
Listen, will you meet me there tomorrow?

Come on.

All right, after school.

I miss you, Angela.

I miss you, too.

Say it.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Ah, okay, we'll practice some shooting
tomorrow. All right, I'll see you later, dude.

The ice chest is missing, too.

I don't know, Pop.
The stuff's got to be here somewhere.

This is the place.

Supposed to meet
in the back of the building.

Scrappy-looking place, isn't it?

Not much of a place, is it?

Where's Mike?
He couldn't make it.

He's okay.
You got the stuff?

It's upstairs.

Get up there. Let's see
what you got here.

He's clean.

Two to one's nigger fun,
you ought to know that.

Now it's my turn.

I'm carrying a lot of money.

You're in Harlem, baby.

Safe is with your mama.

Come on.
Follow me.

One more flight.

What the hell is this?

Whew.

Jesus.

Where is it?
Where's the money?

It's all there.
Where's the merchandise?

Under the floorboard, by the pipe.
Get it, Phil.

It's like he says.
Is a pig's pussy pork?

Bullshit!
Ah, you whiteys,

you never believe anything.

What the fuck do you think I
am, Betty Crocker?

This stuff is shit!
Yeah!

Aaron!

You stay here. No! No, please.
Don't. Aaron, don't.

Well, if it ain't young
Wilt Chamberlain.

I'll... I'll go
get some help.

Aim off of that shit, man.

It's too late for that.

That's what living in this
jungle will do for you, man.

This is the way out.

Take it.

Take it...

And run like hell.

Beau?

Beau?

Oh!

Aaron,

let's get out of here.

Oh!

Aaron, come on!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby, dig this.

Police are still trying to unravel
the mystery of them three cats

found shot to death in that deserted
Harlem apartment building two days ago.

Now, according to police
spokesman, Eric Callahan,

there was strong evidence,
baby, of a possible dope tie-in.

And at least one of the cats escaping
because no money, dig this...

No money was found at the scene.

And about the only thing that's
been ruled out is suicide.

And now, back to more music
with the Big D.

Let's go.

Hey, man,
can you believe that shit?

Beau sure fucked up this time.

Happened right above
our clubhouse, too.

- It ain't no clubhouse, man!
- Three killings.

Pow! Pow! Pow!

Hey, sure lucky you and Angela
wasn't making it at the time.

Hey, man,
you just said the magic word.

What magic word?
Angela.

Angela? Oh, man,
you talking about her again?

You always talking about her. I believe
that chick got your nose hooked.

Man, get out of here.
You know I got to call her, man.

Oh, man, you know
we got a basketball game,

and you just want to go and just
destroy the whole thing over that chick.

Hey, man, basketball
is cool but I dig...

Hello, Angela,

this is Ricardo.

Angela, talk to me.

Angela, I got to see you.

Angela!

Angela!

Angela!

Shit.

How you doing, Pop?

There's talk on the street, Aaron.

What do you mean?
Oh, about the killings.

Beau and those two other dudes,

and about $250,000
that's disappeared.

Talk is the money was
in a briefcase, Aaron.

And what do you know?

Look what we got here.

Well, where'd this come from, Pop?

You know damn well where.
Inside your closet.

Hidden in a hole that
wasn't there a few days ago.

Now where'd you get it, boy? I...

Don't try to give me no shit.

In the building, Pop.

I wasn't mixed up in nothing.
That's the truth.

Then what were you doing
inside the building? Tell me.

There's this girl, Pop.

We had a room.

A room.

Fixed it up ourselves.

Oh, the stove and heater.

But she's a nice girl, Pop.

She wants me to give
the money back.

But, Pop...

Tell me what to do.

Look, Pop,

I'm not going to be seven
feet tall or six-foot-five.

I'm not going to be able to do
all the things these guys did.

If you just try, Aaron...
Pop, I can't make myself grow.

You always told me that

all that matters in life is

points and money.

Well, I'm not going to score
enough points to count for shit.

But I already got the money.

Now, Pop, please.

Tell me what to do.

Points and money, Aaron.

Points and money.

I didn't teach you
to be dishonest, son.

This is it.

Who is it?
We're friends of Beau's.

Oh, you motherfuckers. Shut up!

I don't know nothing
about no money.

There's $250,000 missing.

My money!

That black pimp of yours
set my boys up!

Beau was killed, too!

Beau's ass!

I want that money!

Who was working with Beau?
Who did he use?

Tell me. Who?

I heard him calling...

Duke Washburn.

Let's get him.

Come on, man, cut it out.
Come on, cut the shit short, all right?

Shit, man.

Hello. Angela, I got to see you.
It's important.

Aaron, please.

Angela, I'm splitting,
I got to see you one last time.

Where are you going?
I don't know yet.

But I know I'm not
coming back, no way.

Where should I meet you?
Outside Grant's Tomb.

I'll be there.

Willie, don't ask me nothing.
Nothing.

Hey, man, what's wrong?

God. Aaron, man,
what's wrong with you?

Hey, man, what's wrong with you, man?
Hey, man, you got a problem, right?

Man, I told you before,
don't ask me nothing.

Get out of there!
Get out of there! Move it.

Move it! Start talking.

Look, I told you dudes,
I don't know nothing about this.

You were there, motherfucker. Yeah, but
I was just standing outside watching.

What happened to my money?

I don't know anything
about no money.

Either way,

nigger, I'm going to kill you. But if
you talk, I might give you a chance.

Wait, wait, I remember
something, wait. Go on.

Well, when I was running away a boy and
a girl came running out the building.

Go on. The boy had like a
briefcase under his jacket.

What was his name?

I don't know his name.
But Beau called him "Wilt."

And I know
his friend, Willie Russell,

and his old lady.

I swear I don't know about it.

Okay, nigger. That's your chance.
Run, nigger, run.

Look, look, don't kill me, man!

Hey, man!
What did I do, man?

Get your fucking...
Get off!

We're looking for
a friend of yours.

What friend?
I ain't got no friend.

This is the one Beau calls "Wilt,"

- your main man.
- I don't know no Wilt, man.

Where's your friend?
Where is he?

Ooh!
He's...

Grant's, Grant's...
Grant's Tomb.

Angela!

I can't go with you, Aaron.

But I thought you loved me.

I do love you, but...

That money will buy you
nothing but trouble.

No matter where you go they...
They'll be coming after you.

You'll be running all the time
until one day they catch you.

You know something, Aaron,

I'd go anywhere in
the world with you.

And we'd make it somehow.

But not like this.

Quick, get out.
Get 'em!

Quick! Get them!
They're going up to the train.

Hey, look, money!

Man, you ever see so much money?

Money, money, money.

Yeah, baby!
