1
00:00:00,917 --> 00:00:03,720
I serve as an equalizer.
2
00:00:03,787 --> 00:00:05,155
I'm the one you call
3
00:00:05,221 --> 00:00:06,323
when you can't call 911.
4
00:00:06,389 --> 00:00:07,638
Previously on The Equalizer...
5
00:00:07,705 --> 00:00:09,626
Federal agents! Don't move!
6
00:00:09,693 --> 00:00:10,827
Harry "Keys" Keshegian,
7
00:00:10,894 --> 00:00:12,796
you're under arrest for espionage.
8
00:00:12,862 --> 00:00:14,798
I want to know who owns this place.
9
00:00:14,864 --> 00:00:16,700
You don't normally need help
with stuff like that.
10
00:00:16,766 --> 00:00:18,068
My computer's down.
11
00:00:18,134 --> 00:00:19,869
I have a close friend
12
00:00:19,936 --> 00:00:21,019
who I can't help.
13
00:00:21,086 --> 00:00:23,248
Trust yourself. You can do it.
14
00:00:23,315 --> 00:00:25,208
Please tell me you
have a miracle up your sleeve,
15
00:00:25,275 --> 00:00:27,644
because I'm all out.
16
00:00:27,711 --> 00:00:28,945
They're releasing him.
17
00:00:29,012 --> 00:00:31,982
I heard it was the
president who intervened.
18
00:00:32,048 --> 00:00:33,850
Well, don't get too
excited. There are conditions.
19
00:00:33,917 --> 00:00:36,953
Harry can never touch a computer again.
20
00:00:47,364 --> 00:00:48,932
No.
21
00:00:48,999 --> 00:00:50,967
No! Please, no!
22
00:00:58,308 --> 00:01:01,211
Psychology. Maybe. Economics.
23
00:01:01,277 --> 00:01:03,380
No. Art history.
24
00:01:03,446 --> 00:01:05,215
- You'd like that one, Aunt Vi.
- Yeah.
25
00:01:05,281 --> 00:01:08,685
I have one elective I can take
next semester.
26
00:01:08,907 --> 00:01:10,208
Woodshop might be cool?
27
00:01:10,275 --> 00:01:12,043
We could use a birdhouse.
28
00:01:12,110 --> 00:01:14,012
What does your college counselor
have to say?
29
00:01:14,078 --> 00:01:16,014
Take a class that'll make me
look like an interesting
30
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:17,415
and well-rounded candidate.
31
00:01:17,482 --> 00:01:19,117
But, I don't know,
32
00:01:19,184 --> 00:01:21,252
that's if I even want to go to college.
33
00:01:22,620 --> 00:01:24,923
I mean, a degree isn't
the only path to success.
34
00:01:24,989 --> 00:01:27,859
Look at Steve Jobs, Anna Wintour,
35
00:01:27,926 --> 00:01:29,027
Daymond John...
36
00:01:29,093 --> 00:01:30,866
None of them graduated college.
37
00:01:31,408 --> 00:01:33,064
And none of them live under this roof.
38
00:01:33,131 --> 00:01:34,532
Morning, Mom.
39
00:01:34,599 --> 00:01:36,401
Dee, you were always so excited
40
00:01:36,467 --> 00:01:37,502
about going to college.
41
00:01:37,569 --> 00:01:39,837
I know. Well, maybe I'm just...
42
00:01:39,904 --> 00:01:41,973
exploring different perspectives.
43
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,142
Yeah, well, from my perspective,
44
00:01:44,209 --> 00:01:45,577
you're going to college.
45
00:01:45,643 --> 00:01:47,045
Okay, we still have a couple years
46
00:01:47,111 --> 00:01:49,547
- before I'm old...
- You leave for college, yes.
47
00:01:50,415 --> 00:01:51,549
Okay.
48
00:01:52,054 --> 00:01:54,185
I got to go meet Tiffany.
49
00:01:54,252 --> 00:01:55,587
A bunch of us
are going skating at Wolman's.
50
00:01:55,653 --> 00:01:57,455
But I love you.
51
00:01:57,522 --> 00:01:58,456
Bye.
52
00:01:58,523 --> 00:01:59,624
Bye.
53
00:01:59,691 --> 00:02:01,159
Where do you think
54
00:02:01,226 --> 00:02:03,094
that's coming from?
55
00:02:03,161 --> 00:02:05,463
Sometimes I think she just says
things to see how we'll react.
56
00:02:05,530 --> 00:02:07,532
I swear, man.
57
00:02:07,945 --> 00:02:10,001
I got to skate out
of here, too, Aunt Vi.
58
00:02:10,068 --> 00:02:12,870
All right. Right behind you.
59
00:02:15,119 --> 00:02:16,541
Look at you.
60
00:02:16,608 --> 00:02:18,376
Mm-hmm.
61
00:02:18,443 --> 00:02:19,644
Upstairs,
62
00:02:19,711 --> 00:02:22,380
in the light of day.
63
00:02:22,447 --> 00:02:24,082
How's it feel?
64
00:02:24,107 --> 00:02:25,943
I think it'd feel a little
better if the, uh, FBI hadn't
65
00:02:26,050 --> 00:02:28,019
repossessed my safe space and banned me
66
00:02:28,086 --> 00:02:30,488
from doing the only thing
which gives my life meaning.
67
00:02:30,555 --> 00:02:32,023
At least you're not in prison, babe.
68
00:02:32,090 --> 00:02:34,626
And you don't have to pretend
to be dead.
69
00:02:34,692 --> 00:02:36,194
Like you wanted.
70
00:02:36,219 --> 00:02:37,887
I know, I know. Don't get me wrong...
71
00:02:37,996 --> 00:02:41,199
It is amazing
being out in the world again.
72
00:02:41,266 --> 00:02:42,667
Except for those electric scooters.
73
00:02:42,734 --> 00:02:44,669
Who authorized those death traps?
74
00:02:45,670 --> 00:02:49,307
But what's the point of
gaining the world if it means
75
00:02:49,374 --> 00:02:51,209
losing your place in it?
76
00:02:51,276 --> 00:02:53,311
We'll find your place.
77
00:02:53,378 --> 00:02:54,579
I promise.
78
00:02:54,646 --> 00:02:56,456
Yeah. But that's not why we called.
79
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:57,649
We got a message
80
00:02:57,715 --> 00:02:59,951
from Deidre Blickman.
81
00:03:00,018 --> 00:03:02,120
The wife of the rapper, Dilemma?
82
00:03:02,186 --> 00:03:03,288
That's the one.
83
00:03:03,354 --> 00:03:06,491
The guy gunned down his rival,
Dre Bids, in cold blood
84
00:03:06,557 --> 00:03:08,660
as part of a rap beef.
85
00:03:08,726 --> 00:03:10,328
Yeah, I know who he is.
86
00:03:10,395 --> 00:03:11,429
What does the wife want?
87
00:03:11,496 --> 00:03:13,064
She says he didn't do it.
88
00:03:13,173 --> 00:03:14,474
Well, I thought he confessed.
89
00:03:14,499 --> 00:03:17,235
He did. But she says she has
proof that it wasn't him.
90
00:03:17,931 --> 00:03:19,370
What's the proof?
91
00:03:20,004 --> 00:03:23,608
? I might've heard it was
a .38 behind the door ?
92
00:03:23,675 --> 00:03:26,377
? The time of death
when he left the Earth, 9:04 ?
93
00:03:26,444 --> 00:03:29,681
? And now his rival in the game
is sitting in a cell ?
94
00:03:29,747 --> 00:03:33,985
? And plus the one who spit
the shells is living in hell. ?
95
00:03:34,052 --> 00:03:35,453
The exact time he died.
96
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,188
Shot by a .38?
97
00:03:37,255 --> 00:03:39,357
Those details
were never released publicly.
98
00:03:39,424 --> 00:03:41,426
This song is a confession.
99
00:03:41,492 --> 00:03:45,229
So you think whoever recorded
this track killed Dre Bids,
100
00:03:45,296 --> 00:03:46,369
not your husband.
101
00:03:46,436 --> 00:03:47,999
I never believed Greg's confession.
102
00:03:48,066 --> 00:03:49,434
Now I know I was right.
103
00:03:49,500 --> 00:03:50,468
Who's the artist?
104
00:03:50,535 --> 00:03:52,070
He goes by the name Sid Slay.
105
00:03:52,136 --> 00:03:54,005
The track dropped on SoundCloud
just about a month ago.
106
00:03:54,072 --> 00:03:56,541
We tried to find him,
but his account's anonymous.
107
00:03:57,137 --> 00:03:59,110
What does your husband
have to say about this?
108
00:03:59,177 --> 00:04:00,478
Told me to leave it alone.
109
00:04:00,545 --> 00:04:02,246
But we've been married a long time.
110
00:04:02,313 --> 00:04:04,582
I know when he's keeping
something from me.
111
00:04:04,649 --> 00:04:07,051
My dad's not a murderer.
112
00:04:07,952 --> 00:04:11,089
I'm not sure if you take cases
from people like me,
113
00:04:11,155 --> 00:04:12,557
but I don't know where to turn.
114
00:04:12,623 --> 00:04:14,759
Something's not right.
115
00:04:14,826 --> 00:04:17,395
I just need someone
who can tell me the truth.
116
00:04:17,462 --> 00:04:19,664
Come on, Ma. We know the truth.
117
00:04:19,731 --> 00:04:21,399
- He did it.
- Shut up!
118
00:04:21,466 --> 00:04:23,134
Watch your mouth, Daoud.
119
00:04:23,201 --> 00:04:24,736
Just speaking the truth, Ma.
120
00:04:24,802 --> 00:04:26,671
Shotta Boys jumped me.
121
00:04:26,738 --> 00:04:28,072
Dad set it right.
122
00:04:28,139 --> 00:04:29,194
Daoud,
123
00:04:29,261 --> 00:04:31,576
take your brother to his art class,
and pick him up after.
124
00:04:31,642 --> 00:04:33,144
Yo, you can't just call him an Uber?
125
00:04:33,211 --> 00:04:34,502
I got somewhere to be.
126
00:04:34,569 --> 00:04:37,281
Take your brother to his class.
127
00:04:37,348 --> 00:04:38,416
Now.
128
00:04:39,584 --> 00:04:41,152
Get your stuff, Nasir.
129
00:04:46,791 --> 00:04:47,759
Bye, Ma.
130
00:04:47,825 --> 00:04:49,026
It was nice meeting you.
131
00:04:50,194 --> 00:04:52,363
You have to forgive Daoud.
132
00:04:52,430 --> 00:04:54,365
All his life, he wanted
to be like his father.
133
00:04:54,432 --> 00:04:56,234
Started rapping
when he was eight years old.
134
00:04:56,613 --> 00:04:59,504
He's been in so much pain ever
since his dad went to prison.
135
00:04:59,570 --> 00:05:01,072
He became hard.
136
00:05:01,139 --> 00:05:02,807
Started running the streets.
137
00:05:03,374 --> 00:05:05,476
Trying to take up the mantle?
138
00:05:05,543 --> 00:05:07,178
My husband's gangsta image
sold a lot of records,
139
00:05:07,245 --> 00:05:08,513
but that's not who he is.
140
00:05:08,579 --> 00:05:10,148
Is that so?
141
00:05:10,173 --> 00:05:11,541
Because from what I read,
even before the murder,
142
00:05:11,649 --> 00:05:13,785
things were getting violent
between the two crews.
143
00:05:14,131 --> 00:05:15,653
Joke is...
144
00:05:16,091 --> 00:05:20,158
whole damn beef started out
as a PR stunt to sell tracks.
145
00:05:20,265 --> 00:05:21,467
It just got so out of hand,
146
00:05:21,492 --> 00:05:23,661
with them trying to be
what they rapped about.
147
00:05:23,728 --> 00:05:26,798
Last year, Dre Bids' gang,
the Shotta Boys,
148
00:05:26,864 --> 00:05:30,802
beat Daoud up so badly
he had to be hospitalized.
149
00:05:31,523 --> 00:05:34,105
My husband's crew wanted revenge, but...
150
00:05:34,172 --> 00:05:37,508
he saw what the music was doing.
151
00:05:37,575 --> 00:05:41,112
He just wanted to be done
with the violence.
152
00:05:41,746 --> 00:05:44,215
That's how I know it wasn't him.
153
00:05:44,787 --> 00:05:46,159
If your husband is innocent,
154
00:05:46,184 --> 00:05:48,186
he confessed for a reason.
155
00:05:48,252 --> 00:05:50,121
He must be covering for something.
156
00:05:50,188 --> 00:05:52,190
I know what you're thinking,
157
00:05:52,256 --> 00:05:53,959
but Nasir was home with me
158
00:05:54,025 --> 00:05:56,694
and Daoud and his boys
were at Club Cypher.
159
00:05:56,761 --> 00:05:58,429
If Greg's covering,
160
00:05:58,496 --> 00:06:00,498
it's for someone else...
161
00:06:00,565 --> 00:06:02,300
This Sid Slay...
162
00:06:02,366 --> 00:06:04,302
And I need to know why.
163
00:06:06,471 --> 00:06:07,572
Your client's right.
164
00:06:07,976 --> 00:06:10,241
Those details about the murder
were never made public.
165
00:06:10,308 --> 00:06:12,310
So how'd they wind up
in that SoundCloud track?
166
00:06:12,376 --> 00:06:14,245
Does it matter? Dilemma confessed.
167
00:06:14,312 --> 00:06:15,847
It matters if he isn't the real killer.
168
00:06:15,913 --> 00:06:18,918
- I thought we were all about the truth.
- You want the truth?
169
00:06:18,985 --> 00:06:21,252
How about the toll their beef
has taken on the community?
170
00:06:21,319 --> 00:06:23,217
How about the ten-year-old girl
who got killed
171
00:06:23,283 --> 00:06:24,722
in the crossfire of a shoot-out
172
00:06:24,789 --> 00:06:26,157
between Shotta Boys and B-Set,
173
00:06:26,224 --> 00:06:28,726
all because Dilemma killed Dre Bids?
174
00:06:28,793 --> 00:06:29,861
And what if he didn't?
175
00:06:29,927 --> 00:06:31,162
Imagine what that would change.
176
00:06:31,229 --> 00:06:32,864
Why confess if he didn't do it?
177
00:06:32,930 --> 00:06:34,265
That's what I want to ask him.
178
00:06:34,332 --> 00:06:35,733
You think you can arrange a visit?
179
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:36,868
I can.
180
00:06:36,934 --> 00:06:38,202
But I'm coming along.
181
00:06:38,269 --> 00:06:39,537
I'll meet you there.
182
00:06:39,604 --> 00:06:42,473
In the meantime,
I'll track down this Sid Slay,
183
00:06:42,540 --> 00:06:46,143
find out how he has details
only the real killer could know.
184
00:06:47,512 --> 00:06:49,814
Okay, so you want me to trace the IP
185
00:06:49,881 --> 00:06:51,780
of whoever it is
that dropped that track?
186
00:06:51,846 --> 00:06:53,351
I would love to.
Oh! Wait, that's right...
187
00:06:53,417 --> 00:06:56,187
The FBI forbade me from
ever using a computer again.
188
00:06:56,254 --> 00:06:58,456
Rob, if anyone were to see me...
189
00:06:58,523 --> 00:07:00,358
You can't touch a computer, but Mel can.
190
00:07:00,424 --> 00:07:02,631
Why don't you walk her through
it? That's technically legal.
191
00:07:02,698 --> 00:07:04,629
Yeah. Legal, uh, yeah.
192
00:07:04,695 --> 00:07:06,230
Uh, a good idea? Eh.
193
00:07:06,297 --> 00:07:08,532
I mean, you want us
to stay married, right?
194
00:07:08,599 --> 00:07:11,202
I mean, between her control
issues and my control issues...
195
00:07:11,269 --> 00:07:12,637
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
196
00:07:12,703 --> 00:07:14,205
We would murder each other.
197
00:07:14,272 --> 00:07:15,606
Can you at least try?
198
00:07:16,374 --> 00:07:19,677
I guess it's got to be better
than being completely useless.
199
00:07:19,744 --> 00:07:21,946
Um, want to give it a shot?
200
00:07:24,515 --> 00:07:25,583
Uh, yeah.
201
00:07:26,817 --> 00:07:27,785
I'll go get the laptop.
202
00:07:27,852 --> 00:07:29,353
Yep.
203
00:07:32,390 --> 00:07:34,392
? I saw my opportunity ?
204
00:07:34,458 --> 00:07:35,927
? So, yeah, I took my shot ?
205
00:07:35,993 --> 00:07:37,261
? They probably say it's hate ?
206
00:07:37,328 --> 00:07:38,863
? But I just couldn't wait ?
207
00:07:38,930 --> 00:07:42,700
? Yeah, it was me who pulled
the trigger on that .38. ?
208
00:07:42,767 --> 00:07:43,901
That ain't nothing.
209
00:07:43,968 --> 00:07:46,737
Just some fraud looking for street cred.
210
00:07:46,804 --> 00:07:50,675
That fraud is confessing to a
murder you're serving time for.
211
00:07:50,741 --> 00:07:52,910
With details only someone
at the scene would have.
212
00:07:53,498 --> 00:07:54,946
Like cops don't talk?
213
00:07:55,012 --> 00:07:57,415
That same talk can hit the streets.
214
00:07:57,481 --> 00:08:00,551
And you're sure no one else
was there that night?
215
00:08:00,618 --> 00:08:01,686
Just me.
216
00:08:01,752 --> 00:08:04,322
Not your boys? Not your crew?
217
00:08:04,388 --> 00:08:06,791
You just walked up to
Dre Bids and shot him?
218
00:08:07,304 --> 00:08:08,526
That's right.
219
00:08:08,593 --> 00:08:12,229
Yeah? And how'd you know he
was gonna be there that night?
220
00:08:13,698 --> 00:08:14,732
Guard!
221
00:08:15,228 --> 00:08:17,735
You know what's happening out there?
222
00:08:17,802 --> 00:08:19,370
Shotta Boys sending hitters,
223
00:08:19,437 --> 00:08:20,638
B-Set doing the same,
224
00:08:20,705 --> 00:08:22,707
all because they think
you killed Dre Bids.
225
00:08:22,773 --> 00:08:24,275
But if you didn't do it...
226
00:08:24,342 --> 00:08:26,344
We're done here.
227
00:08:27,645 --> 00:08:28,813
Let's go.
228
00:08:29,447 --> 00:08:31,716
If you knew what was best for you,
229
00:08:31,782 --> 00:08:33,551
you would leave this alone.
230
00:08:37,455 --> 00:08:39,357
He's hiding something. No doubt.
231
00:08:40,658 --> 00:08:42,860
I'll take a look at the case files,
232
00:08:42,927 --> 00:08:44,862
see if anything got overlooked.
233
00:08:44,929 --> 00:08:46,764
I'll talk to the players involved.
234
00:08:46,831 --> 00:08:48,666
Hey. Be careful.
235
00:08:49,012 --> 00:08:51,302
A lot of bodies between
Shotta Boys and B-Set.
236
00:08:51,369 --> 00:08:52,637
They don't mess around.
237
00:08:52,703 --> 00:08:54,538
Neither do I.
238
00:08:55,310 --> 00:08:57,875
But thanks for the concern.
239
00:09:18,963 --> 00:09:20,798
Cops are back.
240
00:09:20,865 --> 00:09:21,999
Asking questions,
241
00:09:22,066 --> 00:09:24,089
digging into that thing.
242
00:09:25,403 --> 00:09:27,038
You know what to do.

Oh, you don't have
to hit Search every time.
245
00:09:41,990 --> 00:09:43,646
You know what? You want to do it?
246
00:09:43,713 --> 00:09:46,721
Oh, wait, you can't. So stop hovering.
247
00:09:46,745 --> 00:09:48,564
Wow. Way to kick a man when he's down.
248
00:09:48,630 --> 00:09:49,765
Well, you're...
249
00:09:50,859 --> 00:09:52,360
Hey, Rob.
250
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:53,568
How'd it go with Dilemma?
251
00:09:53,675 --> 00:09:55,410
He was uncooperative, to say the least.
252
00:09:55,435 --> 00:09:58,205
Uncooperative, huh?
That must be really frustrating.
253
00:09:58,230 --> 00:09:59,564
I have the Feds on speed dial.
254
00:09:59,589 --> 00:10:00,767
- I do.
- Okay.
255
00:10:00,809 --> 00:10:02,744
How 'bout you kill each other later?
256
00:10:02,769 --> 00:10:04,249
Any luck IDing our artist?
257
00:10:04,274 --> 00:10:05,730
Yeah, so this Sid Slay
258
00:10:05,755 --> 00:10:07,039
may have implicated himself in murder,
259
00:10:07,064 --> 00:10:08,983
but he was smart enough to, uh,
use a VPN while doing it.
260
00:10:09,008 --> 00:10:11,910
So now we're analyzing
the recording itself,
261
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,448
pulling apart the tracks
262
00:10:13,473 --> 00:10:14,708
and looking for anything distinctive.
263
00:10:14,733 --> 00:10:16,335
- How's that going?
- Uh, you know,
264
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:17,494
it's a pretty sparse track, but he's got
265
00:10:17,519 --> 00:10:19,254
lots and lots of layers of effects
266
00:10:19,279 --> 00:10:20,813
- on his vocals.
- Probably to disguise it.
267
00:10:20,882 --> 00:10:23,885
That's what I would do if I was
trying to get away with murder.
268
00:10:24,652 --> 00:10:27,055
Speaking of murder,
did Dante send the case files?
269
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,882
Yeah, he did.
270
00:10:29,023 --> 00:10:30,091
You just hit Comman...
271
00:10:32,077 --> 00:10:33,379
Andre Smith,
272
00:10:33,404 --> 00:10:35,707
better known as the rap artist Dre Bids.
273
00:10:35,732 --> 00:10:38,802
He was shot outside his
recording studio three times.
274
00:10:39,181 --> 00:10:41,083
The only eyewitness
275
00:10:41,149 --> 00:10:43,085
was Cordell Marshall,
a rapper known as Brawlah.
276
00:10:43,151 --> 00:10:46,372
The report says that Brawlah
was a prot�g� of Dre Bids.
277
00:10:46,397 --> 00:10:47,394
Seems friendly.
278
00:10:47,419 --> 00:10:48,457
So, this Brawlah
279
00:10:48,482 --> 00:10:49,850
actually witnessed the shooting?
280
00:10:50,132 --> 00:10:51,900
He arrived to find the body,
281
00:10:51,925 --> 00:10:54,494
and he told his boys that he
saw Dilemma fleeing the scene.
282
00:10:54,519 --> 00:10:56,788
And the gun recovered
was registered to Dilemma.
283
00:10:56,813 --> 00:10:57,981
I don't know, Rob.
284
00:10:58,006 --> 00:10:59,808
I mean, it was Dilemma's gun.
285
00:10:59,833 --> 00:11:01,201
He confessed.
286
00:11:01,226 --> 00:11:02,594
- Are you sure it's not him?
- No.
287
00:11:02,664 --> 00:11:04,867
But there's more to it
than folks are letting on.
288
00:11:05,340 --> 00:11:07,108
Where can I find Brawlah?
289
00:11:09,878 --> 00:11:12,180
? Brawlah ?
290
00:11:12,247 --> 00:11:13,782
? Come down ?
291
00:11:13,849 --> 00:11:15,584
? Coming thru
with a Black Mac in a mask ?
292
00:11:15,651 --> 00:11:16,885
? Who could it be? ?
293
00:11:16,952 --> 00:11:18,153
? Heard the brawlers making movies ?
294
00:11:18,220 --> 00:11:19,888
? Here's a clip from me ?
295
00:11:19,955 --> 00:11:22,557
? Young Daoud forgot to bathe,
washed up in a club ?
296
00:11:22,624 --> 00:11:25,994
? Shotta Boys, we the realest,
all the rest is a dub ?
297
00:11:26,061 --> 00:11:27,296
- Hey, yo, cut.
- ? Getting money, what's that about? ?
298
00:11:27,362 --> 00:11:28,730
Cut.
299
00:11:28,797 --> 00:11:29,912
Can we try this again?
300
00:11:29,978 --> 00:11:31,300
- Okay, everybody, reset.
- Sorry, guys.
301
00:11:31,366 --> 00:11:32,301
Hi, can I help you?
302
00:11:32,367 --> 00:11:34,249
Uh, yes. I'm Sandra Wright.
303
00:11:34,316 --> 00:11:36,204
From Beat Muse podcast.
304
00:11:36,271 --> 00:11:38,173
I'm here to interview Brawlah.
305
00:11:38,198 --> 00:11:39,933
It's for our piece
on the one-year anniversary
306
00:11:39,958 --> 00:11:41,036
of Dre Bids' death.
307
00:11:41,103 --> 00:11:42,936
I'm sorry. You're not on the schedule.
308
00:11:42,961 --> 00:11:44,429
I should be.
309
00:11:44,713 --> 00:11:46,281
Uh... Either we do this now
310
00:11:46,306 --> 00:11:47,974
or we produce it without him.
311
00:11:47,999 --> 00:11:50,068
All I know is I wouldn't want
to be the person who tells him
312
00:11:50,093 --> 00:11:52,695
he wasn't included in
the big tribute to his mentor.
313
00:11:56,243 --> 00:11:57,878
He was the best to ever do it.
314
00:11:57,945 --> 00:12:00,614
And when Dre Bids took me
under his wing, it was like...
315
00:12:00,681 --> 00:12:02,650
being drafted into the NBA.
316
00:12:02,717 --> 00:12:04,719
I know his death
must have been painful for you.
317
00:12:04,785 --> 00:12:07,688
But can you take me through that night?
318
00:12:07,755 --> 00:12:09,557
I got a text from him earlier.
319
00:12:10,157 --> 00:12:11,459
He thought something
might be poppin' off
320
00:12:11,525 --> 00:12:12,693
at the studio that night.
321
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,428
But by the time I got there, I...
322
00:12:14,495 --> 00:12:16,261
I couldn't believe it.
323
00:12:17,732 --> 00:12:19,867
My man's lying dead on the ground.
324
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:21,902
And Dilemma?
325
00:12:25,806 --> 00:12:28,509
It ain't snitching
if the man already confessed.
326
00:12:29,777 --> 00:12:31,712
He was peeling off just as I rolled up.
327
00:12:31,779 --> 00:12:34,715
So you actually saw him or just his car?
328
00:12:34,782 --> 00:12:36,584
Who else would it be in his whip?
329
00:12:38,586 --> 00:12:40,521
What's the deal
with all of these questions?
330
00:12:40,588 --> 00:12:41,956
Ain't you here about his music?
331
00:12:42,022 --> 00:12:45,593
Yeah, but this new
confession track by Sid Slay
332
00:12:45,659 --> 00:12:47,495
made it seem like he was there, too.
333
00:12:47,561 --> 00:12:50,731
Look, I don't know nothin'
about a Sid Slay.
334
00:12:50,798 --> 00:12:53,667
All I know is I got Dre's text,
left Cypher
335
00:12:53,734 --> 00:12:54,735
and found him dead.
336
00:12:54,802 --> 00:12:56,103
And had I seen his text sooner,
337
00:12:56,170 --> 00:12:57,438
it'd be Dilemma in the dirt.
338
00:12:57,505 --> 00:12:59,140
You were at Cypher Club that night?
339
00:12:59,206 --> 00:13:00,293
What I said.
340
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,743
Anything go down that night?
Any conflict?
341
00:13:02,810 --> 00:13:04,578
Nah, we were celebrating.
342
00:13:04,645 --> 00:13:06,447
My man just came home
from a ten-year bid.
343
00:13:06,514 --> 00:13:07,548
It was all love.
344
00:13:07,615 --> 00:13:09,583
What about Daoud Blickman?
345
00:13:09,650 --> 00:13:11,051
Did you see him there that night?
346
00:13:11,118 --> 00:13:12,620
Dilemma's son?
347
00:13:12,926 --> 00:13:14,862
Hell nah, his punk ass wasn't there.
348
00:13:15,222 --> 00:13:17,158
Shotta Boys had the spot on lock.
349
00:13:17,224 --> 00:13:19,527
If Daoud or anybody else repping B-Set
350
00:13:19,593 --> 00:13:20,661
would've showed up that night,
351
00:13:20,728 --> 00:13:23,130
they'd've left in a body bag.
352
00:13:23,764 --> 00:13:27,501
So Daoud lied about where he
was the night of the murder?
353
00:13:27,526 --> 00:13:28,761
You don't think...
354
00:13:28,786 --> 00:13:30,388
He's someone
Dilemma would want to protect.
355
00:13:30,538 --> 00:13:32,039
And the kid's got motive.
356
00:13:32,106 --> 00:13:33,507
You think he's Sid Slay.
357
00:13:33,574 --> 00:13:35,442
It'd explain why the voice is disguised.
358
00:13:35,467 --> 00:13:37,469
But if his father is covering for him,
359
00:13:37,494 --> 00:13:38,829
why would he risk putting it out there?
360
00:13:38,854 --> 00:13:40,656
I mean, what does he have to gain?
361
00:13:40,848 --> 00:13:42,716
I'm on my way to find out now.
362
00:13:42,783 --> 00:13:44,785
How's it going analyzing that track?
363
00:13:44,852 --> 00:13:46,787
Mm, nothing yet.
364
00:13:46,854 --> 00:13:48,055
But you know how they say
365
00:13:48,122 --> 00:13:49,723
married people shouldn't work together
366
00:13:49,748 --> 00:13:51,583
if they want to stay married?
367
00:13:51,608 --> 00:13:53,510
Yeah, we have, uh...
368
00:13:54,147 --> 00:13:56,783
...made a few adjustments.
369
00:13:56,964 --> 00:13:58,872
You look nervous. You want to stop?
370
00:13:58,938 --> 00:14:00,990
Just don't get caught.
371
00:14:02,736 --> 00:14:04,839
- No. Stop. No.
- Uh-uh.
372
00:14:04,905 --> 00:14:07,208
No. No. Stop. No.
373
00:14:07,274 --> 00:14:08,809
Do it again. You'll live to regret it.
374
00:14:08,876 --> 00:14:09,944
Oh, so you want to throw hands, huh?
375
00:14:10,010 --> 00:14:12,012
Yeah, I do. Oh.
376
00:14:13,814 --> 00:14:14,849
Hey.
377
00:14:15,132 --> 00:14:16,217
You're back.
378
00:14:16,283 --> 00:14:18,619
Aunt Vi, you're... here.
379
00:14:18,644 --> 00:14:20,879
Yes. I got back early.
380
00:14:20,904 --> 00:14:22,005
Who's your friend?
381
00:14:22,156 --> 00:14:23,557
Um...
382
00:14:24,191 --> 00:14:25,747
Aunt Vi, this is Cameron.
383
00:14:25,813 --> 00:14:28,519
But he has to get home, so...
384
00:14:28,585 --> 00:14:30,531
Oh, nonsense. Cameron...
385
00:14:31,098 --> 00:14:32,233
...why don't you come on in for a bit.
386
00:14:32,299 --> 00:14:33,767
I just ordered a pizza.
387
00:14:33,834 --> 00:14:37,538
A'ight. Yeah, that sounds cool. Thanks.
388
00:14:41,906 --> 00:14:43,544
So...
389
00:14:43,611 --> 00:14:45,679
you go to Dee's school?
390
00:14:45,746 --> 00:14:47,748
Nah, to Jefferson. In the Bronx.
391
00:14:47,815 --> 00:14:49,516
So then how'd you two meet?
392
00:14:49,541 --> 00:14:50,576
Uh, through Tiffany.
393
00:14:50,601 --> 00:14:52,170
- Yeah, she's my cousin.
- Oh.
394
00:14:52,195 --> 00:14:53,830
That's nice.
395
00:14:53,855 --> 00:14:56,049
So, are you a sophomore, too?
396
00:14:56,323 --> 00:14:57,825
Junior, actually.
397
00:14:57,892 --> 00:15:00,160
So you must be starting
to think about colleges.
398
00:15:00,185 --> 00:15:01,553
Oh, nah.
399
00:15:01,578 --> 00:15:03,446
Not going to college.
400
00:15:04,098 --> 00:15:05,266
Really?
401
00:15:05,332 --> 00:15:06,723
And why is that?
402
00:15:06,748 --> 00:15:09,051
Well, I just believe it's
not worth going into debt for.
403
00:15:09,336 --> 00:15:11,071
I got other plans.
404
00:15:11,138 --> 00:15:12,106
Oh, I see.
405
00:15:12,172 --> 00:15:14,241
You're a... you're a pragmatist.
406
00:15:15,901 --> 00:15:18,837
Well, college is a luxury
that most of us can't afford.
407
00:15:18,946 --> 00:15:21,015
And that's why people
in my position, we...
408
00:15:21,081 --> 00:15:22,983
we create other options for ourselves.
409
00:15:23,050 --> 00:15:25,920
You know, Cameron,
I'm all for options, but...
410
00:15:25,986 --> 00:15:28,022
I think a degree can be very helpful,
411
00:15:28,088 --> 00:15:31,091
especially for those of us
who aren't starting out on a...
412
00:15:31,116 --> 00:15:32,784
on a level playing field.
413
00:15:32,893 --> 00:15:35,629
Well, Cameron's a straight A student.
414
00:15:35,696 --> 00:15:37,831
I mean, it doesn't take money
to be smart.
415
00:15:38,465 --> 00:15:39,934
Growing up in the hood, it never stopped
416
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,303
my parents from exposing me
to everything,
417
00:15:42,369 --> 00:15:44,571
from politics to poetry.
418
00:15:44,638 --> 00:15:46,307
And those high tuitions,
419
00:15:46,373 --> 00:15:47,741
they're there for a reason.
420
00:15:47,766 --> 00:15:49,568
It's to keep people like me away.
421
00:15:49,677 --> 00:15:51,912
So why should I go broke
for the privilege
422
00:15:51,979 --> 00:15:54,270
of being somewhere
that I'm not even wanted?
423
00:15:58,018 --> 00:15:59,620
? All them lies you be spittin' ?
424
00:15:59,687 --> 00:16:01,789
? All I see is hypocrisy ?
425
00:16:01,855 --> 00:16:03,190
? Brawlah, you just a opp ?
426
00:16:03,257 --> 00:16:04,925
? I murk every opp I see ?
427
00:16:04,992 --> 00:16:07,294
? Hatin' on Dah because
you'll never be hot as me ?
428
00:16:07,361 --> 00:16:10,931
? Superstar family,
you're witnessing a monopoly ?
429
00:16:10,998 --> 00:16:13,033
? Come on, come on. ?
430
00:16:15,002 --> 00:16:16,337
Hey, yo,
431
00:16:16,403 --> 00:16:17,871
let me get a minute.
432
00:16:17,938 --> 00:16:19,540
- All right, dude.
- Mm-hmm.
433
00:16:28,282 --> 00:16:29,750
Look,
434
00:16:29,817 --> 00:16:32,353
all due respect,
whatever you think you need,
435
00:16:32,419 --> 00:16:34,088
my moms is wasting her time.
436
00:16:34,154 --> 00:16:35,189
Is that right?
437
00:16:35,255 --> 00:16:37,624
Why did you tell your mom
you were at Club Cypher
438
00:16:37,670 --> 00:16:39,339
the night Dre Bids was killed?
439
00:16:39,607 --> 00:16:40,995
Because I was.
440
00:16:41,061 --> 00:16:41,962
Really?
441
00:16:41,987 --> 00:16:44,195
So how was the Shotta Boys
homecoming party?
442
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:47,701
You know what I think?
443
00:16:47,726 --> 00:16:49,861
After Shottas jumped you,
you wanted some payback.
444
00:16:49,970 --> 00:16:51,739
But Gangsta Jr. got sloppy,
445
00:16:51,764 --> 00:16:53,205
and Daddy had to come
clean up after him.
446
00:16:53,229 --> 00:16:54,149
It ain't like that.
447
00:16:54,174 --> 00:16:56,176
Got some other reason
you'd lie to your mom?
448
00:16:57,044 --> 00:16:59,380
All right, you want to know where I was?
449
00:16:59,446 --> 00:17:00,814
I was here, recording.
450
00:17:00,881 --> 00:17:02,049
Now, you can check the booking records.
451
00:17:02,116 --> 00:17:03,650
Well, why would you lie about that?
452
00:17:03,717 --> 00:17:05,085
Because my pops would've flipped.
453
00:17:05,152 --> 00:17:06,787
With all the heat
between B-Set and Shotta Boys,
454
00:17:06,854 --> 00:17:08,422
he told me I couldn't record anymore.
455
00:17:08,989 --> 00:17:11,158
Because you were making diss tracks.
456
00:17:11,225 --> 00:17:12,960
Like the one you're making right now.
457
00:17:12,985 --> 00:17:15,184
Said with the crews warring,
it was too dangerous.
458
00:17:15,796 --> 00:17:17,603
When I found out what he did for me,
459
00:17:18,165 --> 00:17:20,398
I didn't want to disrespect him
on top of it.
460
00:17:20,901 --> 00:17:23,003
After the Shotta Boys messed me up,
461
00:17:23,070 --> 00:17:24,569
when I woke up in the hospital,
462
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:27,989
my pops was there,
463
00:17:28,375 --> 00:17:29,740
crying.
464
00:17:30,744 --> 00:17:32,910
I ain't never seen him like that.
465
00:17:34,982 --> 00:17:36,664
He said it was his fault.
466
00:17:37,484 --> 00:17:39,250
He swore to put an end to it.
467
00:17:40,087 --> 00:17:42,423
Two weeks later, Dre Bids was dead.
468
00:17:43,296 --> 00:17:45,893
My pops is in jail
because I got caught slippin'.
469
00:17:45,959 --> 00:17:47,327
He's in jail because of me.
470
00:17:47,394 --> 00:17:48,829
Did he tell you that?
471
00:17:48,854 --> 00:17:50,188
Nah, but I know.
472
00:17:50,297 --> 00:17:51,331
You sure?
473
00:17:51,398 --> 00:17:53,167
Because gunning down Dre Bids
474
00:17:53,233 --> 00:17:55,969
in front of his own
recording studio... Why?
475
00:17:56,036 --> 00:17:58,005
The whole thing, it just sounds...
476
00:17:58,072 --> 00:17:59,273
clumsy.
477
00:17:59,729 --> 00:18:02,776
I think your father is hiding something.
478
00:18:02,843 --> 00:18:04,609
From all of us.
479
00:18:04,978 --> 00:18:08,248
And this Sid Slay has
something to do with it.
480
00:18:10,317 --> 00:18:11,985
I got to get back to it.
481
00:18:12,052 --> 00:18:13,320
Yo, Terry!
482
00:18:13,387 --> 00:18:15,122
Sup?
483
00:18:19,059 --> 00:18:20,360
Hey, Dante. Got something?
484
00:18:20,427 --> 00:18:21,929
You could say that.
485
00:18:21,995 --> 00:18:23,897
I was looking at witness statements.
486
00:18:23,964 --> 00:18:26,100
The night Dre Bids was shot,
there was a janitor
487
00:18:26,125 --> 00:18:28,491
working at the recording studio
earlier that night.
488
00:18:28,516 --> 00:18:29,720
He witness the shooting?
489
00:18:29,870 --> 00:18:31,205
He left before it happened,
490
00:18:31,271 --> 00:18:33,207
but I just re-interviewed him.
491
00:18:33,273 --> 00:18:36,343
He says Dilemma wasn't
the only one there that night.
492
00:18:36,368 --> 00:18:37,836
As the janitor was leaving,
493
00:18:37,861 --> 00:18:39,796
someone else was heading
into the studio,
494
00:18:39,821 --> 00:18:42,056
only ten minutes
before Dre Bids' murder.
495
00:18:42,249 --> 00:18:43,383
He recognize 'em?
496
00:18:43,450 --> 00:18:45,352
He ID'd Jacob Styles,
497
00:18:45,377 --> 00:18:46,778
head of Trigger Beat Records.
498
00:18:46,803 --> 00:18:47,897
Label mogul.
499
00:18:47,922 --> 00:18:49,964
Trigger Beat? That's Dilemma's label.
500
00:18:50,157 --> 00:18:51,492
If Styles was there that night,
501
00:18:51,558 --> 00:18:53,093
how come we're just finding out?
502
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,329
When I leaned on him,
he got nervous, confessed.
503
00:18:55,395 --> 00:18:58,098
Someone paid him 25 Gs
not to mention it.
504
00:18:58,165 --> 00:19:00,400
Now, why would someone do that?
505
00:19:01,001 --> 00:19:02,970
Is risking arrest and hiding
506
00:19:03,036 --> 00:19:04,905
in the dark like a cockroach
really better
507
00:19:04,972 --> 00:19:06,907
than patiently telling me what to do?
508
00:19:06,974 --> 00:19:08,876
Yes. A hundred times yes.
509
00:19:08,942 --> 00:19:11,044
Just don't let anybody see me.
510
00:19:11,111 --> 00:19:13,413
I feel like a 12-year-old
sneaking a cigarette.
511
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,049
With a life sentence if I'm caught.
512
00:19:16,305 --> 00:19:17,573
Hey, Rob.
513
00:19:17,598 --> 00:19:19,211
Oh. Hey.
514
00:19:19,319 --> 00:19:20,487
Hey.
515
00:19:20,512 --> 00:19:22,981
Hey, were you able to access
Jacob Styles' financial records?
516
00:19:23,006 --> 00:19:25,108
The answer's yes,
in spite of the subpar Wi-Fi
517
00:19:25,133 --> 00:19:26,026
in this gin joint.
518
00:19:26,093 --> 00:19:27,494
People come here to drink, not to...
519
00:19:28,595 --> 00:19:29,563
Sorry.
520
00:19:29,630 --> 00:19:31,965
- That's all right.
- So, um, yes,
521
00:19:32,032 --> 00:19:33,934
this guy Styles,
he likes to drop a lot of quiche
522
00:19:34,001 --> 00:19:36,069
in fancy restaurants, uh, strip joints.
523
00:19:36,136 --> 00:19:38,405
So, nothing unusual
for a record label exec.
524
00:19:38,430 --> 00:19:39,931
What about the 25 K?
525
00:19:39,956 --> 00:19:41,791
Pretty sure it came from Styles.
526
00:19:41,942 --> 00:19:43,076
He took out that much cash
527
00:19:43,143 --> 00:19:44,344
right before the janitor got his bribe.
528
00:19:44,411 --> 00:19:46,079
But, listen, I-I'm onto something else.
529
00:19:46,104 --> 00:19:48,940
Styles has been receiving
regular money transfers
530
00:19:49,049 --> 00:19:51,285
from an account belonging to Dilemma.
531
00:19:51,310 --> 00:19:52,245
That's not unusual.
532
00:19:52,352 --> 00:19:54,521
Some artists have to pay back
record labels
533
00:19:54,546 --> 00:19:56,014
for advances on their projects.
534
00:19:56,039 --> 00:19:58,029
Yeah, but this is going
to Styles' personal account,
535
00:19:58,054 --> 00:19:59,063
not the label's.
536
00:19:59,088 --> 00:20:01,061
And it began ten months ago,
537
00:20:01,128 --> 00:20:02,462
right after Dilemma got locked up.
538
00:20:02,529 --> 00:20:05,365
So, payments to a guy
who was secretly there
539
00:20:05,432 --> 00:20:06,564
at the scene of the murder?
540
00:20:06,589 --> 00:20:08,560
- Now, that is unusual.
- Right?
541
00:20:08,584 --> 00:20:09,937
Um, babe...
542
00:20:10,003 --> 00:20:11,572
...it's getting crowded.
Put your cigarette away.
543
00:20:11,638 --> 00:20:14,041
Hi! Come on in.
544
00:20:14,641 --> 00:20:17,311
Hey, Mike, would you mind keying me in?
545
00:20:17,377 --> 00:20:19,446
- I left my card upstairs.
- Do I know you?
546
00:20:19,471 --> 00:20:20,805
Yolanda, from Marketing.
547
00:20:20,830 --> 00:20:22,098
Katey introduced us at my onboarding.
548
00:20:22,496 --> 00:20:25,185
Well, you were kind of
busy with deliveries.
549
00:20:25,666 --> 00:20:28,455
Look, Mr. Styles sent
me on a coffee run.
550
00:20:28,522 --> 00:20:31,959
I'm already ten minutes late,
and you know how he gets.
551
00:20:32,025 --> 00:20:33,360
It's only my second week.
552
00:20:33,427 --> 00:20:34,895
I don't want to get fired.
553
00:20:42,269 --> 00:20:43,303
Yeah?
554
00:20:43,370 --> 00:20:45,138
Yeah. Okay.
555
00:20:48,908 --> 00:20:50,810
Yeah, I know how Mr. Styles gets.
556
00:20:51,078 --> 00:20:53,247
Especially when you wannabes
try to sneak in
557
00:20:53,313 --> 00:20:55,983
to give him your demos. Now beat it.
558
00:20:56,683 --> 00:20:59,152
- I'll be back.
- I'll be here.
559
00:20:59,219 --> 00:21:01,255
Hit a wall with Styles.
560
00:21:01,321 --> 00:21:03,490
Looks like I'm gonna need your badge.
561
00:21:03,515 --> 00:21:04,983
Couldn't charm your way in?
562
00:21:05,092 --> 00:21:06,927
Well, not everybody is
563
00:21:06,952 --> 00:21:08,053
as easy a mark as you are.
564
00:21:15,235 --> 00:21:17,009
Hey, what's happening?
565
00:21:17,838 --> 00:21:20,173
- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
566
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:21,375
But it looks like someone
567
00:21:21,441 --> 00:21:23,010
doesn't want me looking into this.
568
00:21:28,473 --> 00:21:29,640
Got here as quick as I could. You okay?
569
00:21:30,918 --> 00:21:32,443
Aside from my bruised ego?
570
00:21:32,510 --> 00:21:34,178
You get a look at the rider?
571
00:21:34,245 --> 00:21:36,748
Black-clad leather. Five-nine.
572
00:21:36,814 --> 00:21:38,530
Nothing distinct.
573
00:21:38,555 --> 00:21:40,284
Right-handed, but he shot with his left
574
00:21:40,351 --> 00:21:42,487
because of the throttle.
Nine millimeter.
575
00:21:42,553 --> 00:21:44,883
Bike was a modified Ducati 848.
576
00:21:44,950 --> 00:21:47,158
Black stealth finish, no plates.
577
00:21:47,225 --> 00:21:50,261
Next time, try to get
a little more detail, will you?
578
00:21:50,786 --> 00:21:53,064
Question is, who's mad enough
579
00:21:53,089 --> 00:21:55,191
about you poking around
to take a shot at you?
580
00:21:55,299 --> 00:21:57,068
One way to find out.
581
00:21:57,135 --> 00:21:59,823
I'm sorry, I honestly don't know
what you're talking about.
582
00:21:59,890 --> 00:22:01,806
Oh, just like you have no idea why
583
00:22:01,873 --> 00:22:03,362
someone just shot at me
outside your offices.
584
00:22:03,429 --> 00:22:05,343
What the hell is this all about?
585
00:22:05,368 --> 00:22:08,227
The murder of Andre "Dre Bids" Smith.
586
00:22:08,546 --> 00:22:10,852
NYPD's reopening the investigation,
587
00:22:10,877 --> 00:22:12,450
and for some reason, we don't seem
588
00:22:12,517 --> 00:22:13,941
to have your statement on file.
589
00:22:14,025 --> 00:22:16,327
Why would you if I wasn't there?
590
00:22:16,352 --> 00:22:19,755
You know, you can lie to me.
It just pisses me off.
591
00:22:20,117 --> 00:22:21,585
You lie to him,
592
00:22:21,610 --> 00:22:24,243
it's obstruction. That's a crime.
593
00:22:24,268 --> 00:22:26,170
We have a witness placing you
at the scene
594
00:22:26,195 --> 00:22:28,407
- just before the murder.
- We also have evidence
595
00:22:28,432 --> 00:22:30,368
you paid the witness
to keep his mouth shut.
596
00:22:30,601 --> 00:22:32,670
I think I should call my lawyer.
597
00:22:32,737 --> 00:22:35,337
If you killed Dre Bids,
you definitely should.
598
00:22:36,067 --> 00:22:37,835
Of course, then I'll have to arrest you
599
00:22:38,081 --> 00:22:39,449
and perp-walk you out of here
600
00:22:39,474 --> 00:22:41,760
in time to be the lead on the 6:00 news.
601
00:22:42,507 --> 00:22:44,680
Or if you didn't, you
can just tell the truth.
602
00:22:47,051 --> 00:22:49,387
Fine. I was there.
603
00:22:49,821 --> 00:22:52,021
But I had nothing to do
with the shooting.
604
00:22:52,463 --> 00:22:56,434
I went there to try to talk
some sense into Dilemma.
605
00:22:56,459 --> 00:22:59,195
He and Dre Bids were supposed
to record a track that night.
606
00:22:59,220 --> 00:23:02,456
Dre Bids and Dilemma, together?
607
00:23:02,767 --> 00:23:05,870
It was a peace track.
608
00:23:05,937 --> 00:23:07,995
Dilemma told me he'd had enough.
609
00:23:08,020 --> 00:23:10,055
The beef was messing with his family.
610
00:23:10,341 --> 00:23:12,943
He and Dre Bids had come to a truce.
611
00:23:12,968 --> 00:23:15,137
But he wasn't thinking right.
612
00:23:15,346 --> 00:23:17,671
They had just jumped his kid.
613
00:23:18,061 --> 00:23:19,773
I didn't want him to do anything rash.
614
00:23:19,798 --> 00:23:21,525
Wait, you tried to talk him out of it?
615
00:23:23,046 --> 00:23:24,381
Like it or not,
616
00:23:24,406 --> 00:23:25,507
violence sells.
617
00:23:25,810 --> 00:23:27,213
He was making a fortune.
618
00:23:27,238 --> 00:23:28,759
We all were.
619
00:23:28,784 --> 00:23:30,352
It was career suicide.
620
00:23:30,377 --> 00:23:32,513
And why let some senseless
killings here and there
621
00:23:32,538 --> 00:23:34,340
stop you from making a buck?
622
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,232
What happened that night?
623
00:23:37,301 --> 00:23:40,638
Like I said, I was talking to Dilemma.
624
00:23:40,663 --> 00:23:42,331
Then shots rang out.
625
00:23:42,356 --> 00:23:43,957
You were with Dilemma when it happened?
626
00:23:44,081 --> 00:23:45,316
Upstairs in the studio.
627
00:23:45,341 --> 00:23:46,943
He ran down to see what was happening...
628
00:23:46,968 --> 00:23:49,604
And you? You got the hell
out of there, didn't you?
629
00:23:49,947 --> 00:23:52,216
Couldn't afford to have
your image sullied,
630
00:23:52,241 --> 00:23:53,309
so you paid to keep your name out of it.
631
00:23:53,417 --> 00:23:56,043
You knew Dilemma was innocent,
632
00:23:56,133 --> 00:23:58,002
and you still let him go down for it?
633
00:23:58,027 --> 00:23:59,224
He insisted.
634
00:23:59,249 --> 00:24:01,189
Why would he take the fall
for something he didn't do?
635
00:24:01,318 --> 00:24:03,854
I asked. He said
it was none of my concern.
636
00:24:03,879 --> 00:24:06,515
And he's been paying you to keep
your mouth shut ever since.
637
00:24:06,998 --> 00:24:08,931
That's business.
638
00:24:09,079 --> 00:24:11,882
Do you know how much
him going away cost me?
639
00:24:11,907 --> 00:24:13,242
Tell me about this peace track.
640
00:24:13,336 --> 00:24:16,072
I think Dre Bids might've
laid down a few verses
641
00:24:16,097 --> 00:24:17,065
the night before.
642
00:24:17,090 --> 00:24:18,858
I'm gonna need that master.
643
00:24:32,207 --> 00:24:34,376
If Dilemma didn't fire
those shots, who did?
644
00:24:34,724 --> 00:24:36,860
Cops ran ballistics on the gun, right?
645
00:24:36,885 --> 00:24:38,219
Did they run DNA?
646
00:24:38,244 --> 00:24:39,779
They didn't need to. He confessed.
647
00:24:39,804 --> 00:24:42,039
And it's too late to do it now.
648
00:24:42,064 --> 00:24:43,399
During the rains last year,
649
00:24:43,534 --> 00:24:46,404
the facility where the case
evidence was stored flooded.
650
00:24:46,429 --> 00:24:48,698
Some material was lost, some destroyed.
651
00:24:48,723 --> 00:24:50,592
This just keeps getting better
and better.
652
00:24:54,912 --> 00:24:56,061
Hey.
653
00:24:56,086 --> 00:24:57,371
Tell me you're making some progress
654
00:24:57,396 --> 00:24:58,464
on that SoundCloud track.
655
00:24:58,683 --> 00:25:00,384
Well, technically, I didn't,
656
00:25:00,451 --> 00:25:01,686
'cause it would've required, you know,
657
00:25:01,752 --> 00:25:03,254
borrowing some NSA software,
658
00:25:03,321 --> 00:25:04,822
which didn't really seem
like the best idea right now.
659
00:25:04,889 --> 00:25:07,130
So I outsourced it
to a hacker pal of mine.
660
00:25:07,155 --> 00:25:08,590
She pulled apart the audio
and found this
661
00:25:08,893 --> 00:25:10,628
- under one of the tracks.
- This is an announcement
662
00:25:10,653 --> 00:25:12,755
to students to show your Bulldog pride
663
00:25:12,780 --> 00:25:13,882
for spirit week.
664
00:25:13,907 --> 00:25:15,576
Spirit week? Like high school.
665
00:25:15,601 --> 00:25:17,670
Yep, and there are only two high schools
666
00:25:17,695 --> 00:25:19,363
in the New York area
with bulldogs as their mascots.
667
00:25:19,388 --> 00:25:21,390
And only one has a music lab.
668
00:25:21,415 --> 00:25:24,217
Uh, Washington-Hamilton High in Queens.
669
00:25:24,242 --> 00:25:25,883
That's kind of a rough school.
670
00:25:26,777 --> 00:25:29,747
I could see B-Set and
Shotta Boys crew going there.
671
00:25:29,772 --> 00:25:32,374
Well, I checked the sign-in
records, and a student named...
672
00:25:32,483 --> 00:25:33,857
Excuse me.
673
00:25:36,530 --> 00:25:38,530
A student named Sidney Rodgers
674
00:25:38,555 --> 00:25:39,889
had been there repeatedly.
675
00:25:39,914 --> 00:25:41,607
As in Sid Slay?
676
00:25:42,213 --> 00:25:44,048
Do you have an address?
677
00:25:48,399 --> 00:25:50,034
Are you Sid Rodgers?
678
00:25:50,101 --> 00:25:51,602
Who's asking?
679
00:25:51,669 --> 00:25:53,545
? When I need them,
they'll see me calling ?
680
00:25:53,612 --> 00:25:56,668
Are you the one who put the song
"Truth Be Told" on SoundCloud?
681
00:25:56,734 --> 00:25:58,162
Lady, you in the wrong place.
682
00:25:58,228 --> 00:25:59,677
Jadin, stop.
683
00:25:59,744 --> 00:26:01,143
I'm Sid.
684
00:26:01,168 --> 00:26:02,217
You're Sid Slay?
685
00:26:02,242 --> 00:26:03,436
How'd you find me?
686
00:26:03,461 --> 00:26:04,925
Are you a music producer?
687
00:26:05,116 --> 00:26:07,284
? Rock the latest,
life is like a gamble. ?
688
00:26:07,490 --> 00:26:09,926
I didn't know
they were about a real murder.
689
00:26:09,951 --> 00:26:11,953
Those lyrics...
690
00:26:12,123 --> 00:26:13,391
They're not mine.
691
00:26:14,245 --> 00:26:15,613
Whose are they?
692
00:26:16,350 --> 00:26:18,429
I don't know.
693
00:26:18,950 --> 00:26:20,084
About a month ago,
694
00:26:20,109 --> 00:26:22,011
I was in Washington Square Park.
695
00:26:22,036 --> 00:26:23,271
Crews meet there to battle,
696
00:26:23,641 --> 00:26:25,142
and newbies try to make a name.
697
00:26:25,167 --> 00:26:26,502
That's why you were there?
698
00:26:26,527 --> 00:26:27,595
I tried to spit,
699
00:26:27,620 --> 00:26:29,255
but they weren't trying to hear me.
700
00:26:29,674 --> 00:26:31,256
Later, the cops rolled through.
701
00:26:31,281 --> 00:26:32,449
When everybody bounced,
702
00:26:32,950 --> 00:26:34,418
someone left a notebook.
703
00:26:34,645 --> 00:26:36,914
The rhymes were dope as hell.
704
00:26:36,981 --> 00:26:38,872
So I laid it down over a track I made
705
00:26:38,897 --> 00:26:40,232
and dropped it on SoundCloud.
706
00:26:40,958 --> 00:26:42,563
And you disguised your voice?
707
00:26:42,588 --> 00:26:44,747
Ain't no one gonna
take me serious as a girl.
708
00:26:45,548 --> 00:26:47,150
Female rappers these days,
709
00:26:47,175 --> 00:26:48,643
they lean into their sexuality.
710
00:26:49,060 --> 00:26:52,148
It's all anacondas, and peaches.
711
00:26:52,215 --> 00:26:54,638
It's empowering, but not my thing.
712
00:26:54,712 --> 00:26:55,746
I'm more...
713
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:57,015
Lauryn Hill.
714
00:26:57,107 --> 00:26:59,009
- MC Lyte.
- Exactly.
715
00:26:59,116 --> 00:27:00,484
But I need to stand out.
716
00:27:00,678 --> 00:27:04,081
I figured maybe I can get
some traction by being hard,
717
00:27:04,106 --> 00:27:05,341
like the guys.
718
00:27:05,608 --> 00:27:07,343
Sid, the best rappers
719
00:27:07,425 --> 00:27:10,461
are the ones who aren't trying
to be anyone but themselves.
720
00:27:10,702 --> 00:27:11,936
But I tried that.
721
00:27:12,029 --> 00:27:13,230
No one was interested.
722
00:27:13,283 --> 00:27:14,618
So, keep practicing.
723
00:27:14,751 --> 00:27:16,119
You got skills.
724
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:17,911
But you got to be authentic.
725
00:27:18,121 --> 00:27:20,123
Only you know what that means for you.
726
00:27:22,793 --> 00:27:24,729
You still got that notebook?
727
00:27:32,290 --> 00:27:33,825
There wasn't a name in it.
728
00:27:34,366 --> 00:27:36,168
I checked.
729
00:27:38,897 --> 00:27:40,632
No need for a name.
730
00:27:41,712 --> 00:27:43,981
I know exactly whose book this is.
731
00:27:51,038 --> 00:27:52,572
It's your notebook, Nasir.
732
00:27:52,639 --> 00:27:55,949
I recognized the drawing
from your other sketchbook.
733
00:28:00,507 --> 00:28:02,442
You wrote those rhymes?
734
00:28:04,217 --> 00:28:06,620
Nas, baby, why?
735
00:28:07,387 --> 00:28:09,723
Because he was there that night.
736
00:28:09,790 --> 00:28:11,992
It was you your dad was covering up for.
737
00:28:12,059 --> 00:28:14,795
No. He was home.
738
00:28:15,261 --> 00:28:17,564
No, Ma. I wasn't.
739
00:28:19,066 --> 00:28:21,001
Baby, what are you saying?
740
00:28:21,068 --> 00:28:22,369
You were here.
741
00:28:23,770 --> 00:28:25,272
I was. But...
742
00:28:25,339 --> 00:28:26,807
when you left to get your braids,
743
00:28:26,873 --> 00:28:28,075
I heard Dad's phone go off.
744
00:28:28,709 --> 00:28:31,345
He must've left it in a
rush to get to the studio.
745
00:28:32,212 --> 00:28:33,647
It was a text
746
00:28:33,714 --> 00:28:36,249
saying that the studio session
was a setup.
747
00:28:36,316 --> 00:28:38,785
Dre Bids was strapped
and coming for him.
748
00:28:38,852 --> 00:28:40,220
Who sent the text?
749
00:28:41,088 --> 00:28:42,723
I don't know.
750
00:28:42,789 --> 00:28:46,293
But I couldn't reach Dad,
and Daoud wasn't picking up.
751
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:47,728
So...
752
00:28:47,794 --> 00:28:49,830
I grabbed Dad's gun.
753
00:28:50,963 --> 00:28:53,834
I only brought it to the studio
so he could protect himself.
754
00:28:53,900 --> 00:28:55,369
When I got there,
755
00:28:55,435 --> 00:28:58,905
I saw Dre Bids pulling a piece
from his trunk.
756
00:28:58,972 --> 00:29:01,174
He saw me, and...
757
00:29:01,241 --> 00:29:05,379
and I didn't mean to, but I got
scared and he...
758
00:29:06,980 --> 00:29:08,048
So I shot him.
759
00:29:10,117 --> 00:29:11,385
Twice.
760
00:29:11,859 --> 00:29:13,687
Next thing I know, Dad grabbed the gun,
761
00:29:13,754 --> 00:29:16,023
wiped it down and pushed me
into his car.
762
00:29:16,089 --> 00:29:19,359
Said it was his fault for
beefing, but...
763
00:29:19,426 --> 00:29:21,660
...it wasn't Dad's fault.
764
00:29:22,262 --> 00:29:23,864
I'm the one who killed him.
765
00:29:23,930 --> 00:29:25,065
No. Oh, baby.
766
00:29:29,256 --> 00:29:30,824
Nasir...
767
00:29:31,038 --> 00:29:32,939
you said you shot him twice.
768
00:29:33,006 --> 00:29:34,007
Are you sure?
769
00:29:34,674 --> 00:29:37,044
I've replayed the details
in my head for a year.
770
00:29:37,110 --> 00:29:38,078
Why?
771
00:29:38,385 --> 00:29:39,946
Because the coroner's report
772
00:29:40,013 --> 00:29:41,782
said that there were three shots.
773
00:29:42,655 --> 00:29:44,891
Two shots were from a distance.
774
00:29:45,052 --> 00:29:46,720
They weren't fatal.
775
00:29:46,787 --> 00:29:49,956
A third shot was from close range.
776
00:29:50,023 --> 00:29:51,091
To the heart.
777
00:29:51,158 --> 00:29:52,926
What are you saying?
778
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:57,197
I don't think Nasir fired
the shot that killed Dre Bids.
779
00:29:58,065 --> 00:30:00,490
You still have your husband's cell?
780
00:30:01,868 --> 00:30:04,771
_
781
00:30:05,772 --> 00:30:06,773
A year-old text?
782
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,009
No one in Dilemma's circle
recognized the number
783
00:30:09,076 --> 00:30:10,243
that sent that warning.
784
00:30:10,310 --> 00:30:11,445
Can you trace it?
785
00:30:11,511 --> 00:30:13,380
With my current lack of resources,
786
00:30:13,447 --> 00:30:15,949
- I don't know.
- Didn't Brawlah say
787
00:30:16,016 --> 00:30:18,118
Dre Bids was worried
something might be going down
788
00:30:18,185 --> 00:30:19,419
at the studio that night?
789
00:30:19,486 --> 00:30:21,455
You think Dre Bids got
a warning text, too?
790
00:30:21,521 --> 00:30:25,125
Well, someone was trying
to stir up trouble.
791
00:30:25,192 --> 00:30:29,061
Probably that same someone who
sent that hitter at me today.
792
00:30:29,996 --> 00:30:31,264
I need you to find out who.
793
00:30:31,331 --> 00:30:32,365
It was a year ago.
794
00:30:32,432 --> 00:30:34,101
Uh, but I'll give it a shot.
795
00:30:34,167 --> 00:30:35,936
It may take a minute though.
796
00:30:36,002 --> 00:30:37,771
I'm gonna need some privacy.
797
00:30:37,838 --> 00:30:39,696
Call me if you find anything.
798
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,042
? You know what it is ?
799
00:30:43,477 --> 00:30:46,313
? Top of the food chain,
welcome to my... ?
800
00:30:46,338 --> 00:30:47,807
When did you become a Dilemma fan?
801
00:30:47,832 --> 00:30:48,933
I'm not.
802
00:30:49,082 --> 00:30:50,250
It's for a client.
803
00:30:50,317 --> 00:30:52,052
Oh. I love this song.
804
00:30:52,119 --> 00:30:53,487
Really?
805
00:30:53,553 --> 00:30:55,388
I didn't know
you were into stuff like this.
806
00:30:55,712 --> 00:30:58,024
Yeah, it's hardcore,
but the beat is fire.
807
00:30:58,091 --> 00:31:00,127
? When you go down that road ?
808
00:31:00,193 --> 00:31:04,164
My friends and I vibe to Dilemma
and Dre Bids all the time.
809
00:31:04,231 --> 00:31:05,966
It's crazy it all ended up in murder.
810
00:31:06,032 --> 00:31:07,968
? I used to specialize
in putting one... ?
811
00:31:08,034 --> 00:31:09,402
Yeah.
812
00:31:09,469 --> 00:31:11,061
It shouldn't have.
813
00:31:12,405 --> 00:31:13,939
But when you're frontin',
814
00:31:14,941 --> 00:31:16,877
sometimes you get caught up being
815
00:31:16,943 --> 00:31:18,945
who other people think you should be,
816
00:31:19,012 --> 00:31:20,981
not who you really are.
817
00:31:23,984 --> 00:31:25,418
Is that the guy who impressed Aunt Vi?
818
00:31:25,485 --> 00:31:26,953
- No.
- Let me say hey.
819
00:31:27,020 --> 00:31:29,089
- No. Mom. No.
- Let me just speak to him real quick.
820
00:31:29,156 --> 00:31:30,857
- Cameron! Hi!
- Hey. Stop.
821
00:31:30,924 --> 00:31:32,039
I'm the mother!
822
00:31:32,105 --> 00:31:34,895
Um. Sorry about my aunt
grilling you earlier.
823
00:31:34,961 --> 00:31:36,830
I almost died when she invited you in.
824
00:31:36,897 --> 00:31:38,798
Nah, she's mad cool.
825
00:31:38,865 --> 00:31:41,368
And the free pizza?
It was worth the questions.
826
00:31:45,838 --> 00:31:47,707
Hey, what's in your head?
827
00:31:48,608 --> 00:31:52,179
I'm just thinking about
this whole college thing.
828
00:31:52,245 --> 00:31:53,914
Okay.
829
00:31:53,980 --> 00:31:55,081
What about it?
830
00:31:55,148 --> 00:31:56,349
For real?
831
00:31:56,416 --> 00:31:58,952
I actually think
going is really important.
832
00:31:59,019 --> 00:32:02,055
A'ight. I mean, you should go
if that's what you want.
833
00:32:02,956 --> 00:32:04,124
But...
834
00:32:04,291 --> 00:32:05,892
I don't know, I just...
835
00:32:05,959 --> 00:32:07,494
I wonder if you're frontin'
like you don't want to go
836
00:32:07,561 --> 00:32:09,029
because you don't believe you can.
837
00:32:09,095 --> 00:32:10,463
Yo, what?
838
00:32:10,530 --> 00:32:12,332
First off, I don't front.
839
00:32:12,399 --> 00:32:14,067
But you're a straight A student.
840
00:32:14,134 --> 00:32:16,870
You could get into any school
you wanted on a scholarship.
841
00:32:16,937 --> 00:32:18,838
Look, I get you grew up different,
842
00:32:18,905 --> 00:32:21,007
but just because you think
college is the plan
843
00:32:21,074 --> 00:32:22,209
doesn't mean that I do.
844
00:32:22,275 --> 00:32:23,376
No, Cameron, I just meant that...
845
00:32:23,443 --> 00:32:24,945
I got to bounce.
846
00:32:26,413 --> 00:32:28,114
Okay.
847
00:32:28,181 --> 00:32:29,416
? And if you coming ?
848
00:32:29,482 --> 00:32:30,574
? Calculating I... ?
849
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:35,055
What you got, Harry?
850
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:36,382
Info on that warning text.
851
00:32:36,489 --> 00:32:38,058
Why do you sound
like you're in a tunnel?
852
00:32:38,124 --> 00:32:39,426
Don't ask. Listen,
853
00:32:39,492 --> 00:32:41,328
the texts came
from a burner phone, okay?
854
00:32:41,394 --> 00:32:42,529
It was only active for a month,
855
00:32:42,596 --> 00:32:44,164
but I was able to pull the records.
856
00:32:44,231 --> 00:32:47,133
And, look, a similar text
was sent to Dre Bids that night.
857
00:32:47,699 --> 00:32:51,004
Someone was playing these two
against each other.
858
00:32:51,071 --> 00:32:52,572
And because it was a burner phone,
859
00:32:52,597 --> 00:32:54,365
we have no way of finding out
who sent the texts.
860
00:32:54,474 --> 00:32:56,409
Normally, yeah.
But the same phone was used
861
00:32:56,476 --> 00:32:57,911
to text and call a slew of others.
862
00:32:57,978 --> 00:32:59,179
All young women... A couple connected
863
00:32:59,246 --> 00:33:00,413
to Dre Bids' crew.
864
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:01,728
A side piece burner.
865
00:33:01,794 --> 00:33:02,849
Oh, yeah.
866
00:33:02,874 --> 00:33:04,609
But there was one woman who was, uh,
867
00:33:04,718 --> 00:33:06,419
a little different from the others.
868
00:33:06,486 --> 00:33:08,188
A Mrs. Gladys Marshall.
869
00:33:08,923 --> 00:33:13,026
Marshall?
As in Cordell "Brawlah" Marshall?
870
00:33:13,093 --> 00:33:16,162
Uh-huh. The genius used a burner
to call his mom.
871
00:33:16,229 --> 00:33:18,958
I mean, there's definitely
something Freudian about all this.
872
00:33:19,067 --> 00:33:21,601
So if Brawlah sent those texts,
873
00:33:21,668 --> 00:33:23,036
then he must've known
874
00:33:23,103 --> 00:33:26,172
that Dilemma and Dre Bids
were gonna meet.
875
00:33:26,239 --> 00:33:28,031
He knew about the truce.
876
00:33:29,142 --> 00:33:31,311
And he was trying to end it.
877
00:33:31,378 --> 00:33:33,113
? I got a thousand-yard stare ?
878
00:33:33,179 --> 00:33:35,096
- Hoo!
- ? It's plain to see that I will ?
879
00:33:35,382 --> 00:33:37,317
? Lift your spirit in the air ?
880
00:33:37,384 --> 00:33:39,619
? Uh, that's anytime, anywhere ?
881
00:33:39,686 --> 00:33:41,321
? Anywhere, just drop the addy ?
882
00:33:41,388 --> 00:33:42,589
? And I'll get my grip ?
883
00:33:42,656 --> 00:33:44,457
? And meet you there, uh ?
884
00:33:44,524 --> 00:33:45,692
? I got... ?
885
00:33:48,395 --> 00:33:50,964
I ain't got time
for your BS podcast today.
886
00:33:51,031 --> 00:33:52,932
I'm not here for no damn podcast.
887
00:33:52,999 --> 00:33:54,200
But I guess you know that,
888
00:33:54,267 --> 00:33:56,002
since you sent
your little motorcycle guy
889
00:33:56,069 --> 00:33:57,003
to gun me down.
890
00:33:58,538 --> 00:34:00,540
Lady, you trippin'.
891
00:34:00,607 --> 00:34:02,357
You can drop the act.
892
00:34:03,043 --> 00:34:05,278
I know you sent texts
to Dilemma and Dre Bids
893
00:34:05,345 --> 00:34:06,446
the night of the murder,
894
00:34:06,513 --> 00:34:08,114
setting them against each other.
895
00:34:08,181 --> 00:34:09,416
And why would I do that?
896
00:34:09,482 --> 00:34:11,584
Peace is a problem
if your brand is beef.
897
00:34:11,950 --> 00:34:14,254
It would've been the end of your career.
898
00:34:14,321 --> 00:34:15,555
You wanted gunfire that night.
899
00:34:15,622 --> 00:34:17,190
You needed to keep it going.
900
00:34:17,257 --> 00:34:20,427
But when you saw Dre Bids
on the ground, wounded,
901
00:34:20,493 --> 00:34:21,661
you got scared.
902
00:34:22,002 --> 00:34:23,563
I mean, if he survived,
903
00:34:23,630 --> 00:34:25,498
he might ask questions.
904
00:34:25,565 --> 00:34:27,167
But if he died...
905
00:34:28,001 --> 00:34:30,570
...then look who inherits his kingdom.
906
00:34:31,204 --> 00:34:34,274
Everybody knows
that Dilemma killed Dre Bids.
907
00:34:34,341 --> 00:34:35,375
He confessed.
908
00:34:35,807 --> 00:34:37,277
True.
909
00:34:37,344 --> 00:34:39,979
But, thanks to me,
910
00:34:40,046 --> 00:34:42,814
the gun just got retested for DNA.
911
00:34:43,383 --> 00:34:45,652
And it came back with three matches.
912
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:47,520
One was Dilemma's.
913
00:34:47,587 --> 00:34:49,122
One was his son's. And...
914
00:34:51,057 --> 00:34:55,118
...I'm sure if they were
to run saliva on this blunt...
915
00:34:56,286 --> 00:34:58,765
...the third would match yours.
916
00:35:04,504 --> 00:35:05,705
I guess I was right.
917
00:35:05,772 --> 00:35:07,574
Doesn't matter if you dead.
918
00:35:08,673 --> 00:35:10,276
One of 'em had to go.
919
00:35:10,343 --> 00:35:12,782
Even if you had to shoot
Dre Bids yourself.
920
00:35:12,849 --> 00:35:14,247
Damn straight.
921
00:35:14,314 --> 00:35:17,317
I'm supposed to fall off
'cause they went soft?
922
00:35:17,384 --> 00:35:18,651
Give up what's mine?
923
00:35:18,718 --> 00:35:20,286
I worked too hard for this, yo.
924
00:35:20,311 --> 00:35:22,380
Ain't nobody taking it away.
925
00:35:22,405 --> 00:35:24,006
Not Dre Bids.
926
00:35:24,031 --> 00:35:25,165
Not Dilemma.
927
00:35:25,358 --> 00:35:26,626
And not you.
928
00:35:27,367 --> 00:35:29,102
That's where you wrong.
929
00:35:31,297 --> 00:35:33,099
Because I'm here to end you.
930
00:35:40,597 --> 00:35:42,765
Daoud, don't. I got this.
931
00:35:42,790 --> 00:35:44,329
- The hell you do.
- Put the gun down.
932
00:35:44,395 --> 00:35:46,402
Nah, Nasir told me everything.
933
00:35:46,469 --> 00:35:48,805
How he shot Dre Bids twice
but there was a third bullet.
934
00:35:49,130 --> 00:35:50,791
You were first on the scene.
935
00:35:50,816 --> 00:35:51,841
The witness.
936
00:35:51,908 --> 00:35:53,776
I was gonna ask this fool what he saw,
937
00:35:53,843 --> 00:35:55,645
but guess I don't need to anymore.
938
00:35:55,670 --> 00:35:56,758
Daoud, please.
939
00:35:56,783 --> 00:35:59,431
Yo, you been sweatin'
me and my pops for years.
940
00:35:59,582 --> 00:36:01,918
Now you got my little brother
wrapped up in this mess?
941
00:36:02,852 --> 00:36:04,253
Nah, this ends right now.
942
00:36:04,278 --> 00:36:06,747
You ain't about that life.
943
00:36:06,856 --> 00:36:08,291
Daoud, listen.
944
00:36:08,358 --> 00:36:09,892
Do you think this is
what your dad would want?
945
00:36:09,917 --> 00:36:11,205
I ain't trying to hear all that!
946
00:36:11,230 --> 00:36:13,312
He was willing
to spend 25 years in prison
947
00:36:13,337 --> 00:36:15,172
to keep your brother from this life.
948
00:36:15,197 --> 00:36:17,533
Doesn't that mean something to you?
949
00:36:17,700 --> 00:36:19,702
You think he would go through all that
950
00:36:19,936 --> 00:36:21,904
just for you to switch places with him?
951
00:36:21,971 --> 00:36:23,623
Someone's got to pay a price.
952
00:36:24,609 --> 00:36:26,743
Yeah, but not you.
953
00:36:34,441 --> 00:36:36,410
He's ruined enough lives.
954
00:36:36,512 --> 00:36:38,280
You want him to ruin yours, too?
955
00:36:48,631 --> 00:36:49,832
You ain't got nothing.
956
00:36:49,999 --> 00:36:51,601
When my lawyer's done,
957
00:36:51,668 --> 00:36:53,670
that DNA won't mean jack.
958
00:36:53,695 --> 00:36:55,430
Yeah, but your confession will.
959
00:36:55,538 --> 00:36:57,306
Your mic's still open.
960
00:36:57,373 --> 00:36:59,709
I got a feeling that's the last
track you're gonna be recording
961
00:36:59,776 --> 00:37:01,511
for a while.
962
00:37:07,617 --> 00:37:09,018
So...
963
00:37:10,012 --> 00:37:11,147
...what are we watching?
964
00:37:11,261 --> 00:37:14,197
Action? Comedy? Psychological thriller?
965
00:37:14,791 --> 00:37:16,092
It doesn't matter.
966
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,804
You sure you don't want
to talk about it?
967
00:37:20,096 --> 00:37:22,899
No. It's nothing, Aunt Vi. Really.
968
00:37:27,770 --> 00:37:29,439
Go on.
969
00:37:29,464 --> 00:37:31,066
Take it.
970
00:37:40,550 --> 00:37:43,086
All the drama in this house,
who needs a movie?
971
00:37:43,152 --> 00:37:44,595
Hey. What's good?
972
00:37:44,620 --> 00:37:46,764
- Not much.
- Uh...
973
00:37:46,789 --> 00:37:48,891
- Look, about earlier...
- I just wanted to see if...
974
00:37:48,958 --> 00:37:50,660
Sorry, you go.
975
00:37:50,727 --> 00:37:52,028
I just wanted to see
976
00:37:52,095 --> 00:37:53,629
if you was down to catch
the new Jordan Peele movie
977
00:37:53,696 --> 00:37:54,997
next weekend.
978
00:37:56,192 --> 00:37:57,884
Uh... yeah.
979
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,969
Yeah, sure. That-That'd be great.
980
00:38:00,344 --> 00:38:02,221
Well, I mean, we don't have to.
981
00:38:02,246 --> 00:38:05,016
No, no. I-I just...
982
00:38:05,475 --> 00:38:07,643
You know, honestly,
I thought we were done.
983
00:38:07,668 --> 00:38:08,903
Yeah, look,
984
00:38:08,928 --> 00:38:10,730
I'm sorry for tripping
like that yesterday.
985
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:12,523
Uh, I was just...
986
00:38:13,516 --> 00:38:15,952
Look, I respect
that college matters to you.
987
00:38:16,519 --> 00:38:19,922
I'm just hoping you can respect
that it's not for me.
988
00:38:19,989 --> 00:38:22,658
I'm not mad at you, though,
for pushing back.
989
00:38:22,725 --> 00:38:24,660
Well, good,
990
00:38:24,685 --> 00:38:27,088
'cause I do that.
991
00:38:27,196 --> 00:38:28,798
It's kind of who I am.
992
00:38:30,166 --> 00:38:32,135
That's what I like about you, Dee.
993
00:38:32,201 --> 00:38:34,537
Most girls, they wouldn't even care.
994
00:38:34,604 --> 00:38:36,906
Okay, and it helps that you fine, too.
995
00:38:37,919 --> 00:38:38,908
Stop.
996
00:38:38,975 --> 00:38:40,076
Okay, I got to go.
997
00:38:40,143 --> 00:38:41,144
All right, I'm-a talk to you later.
998
00:38:41,210 --> 00:38:42,678
Okay. Bye.
999
00:38:44,213 --> 00:38:45,982
Yes!
1000
00:38:46,048 --> 00:38:49,452
Beefing on records,
I provided for my family.
1001
00:38:49,519 --> 00:38:52,480
I never imagined
the damage it could cause.
1002
00:38:53,128 --> 00:38:55,964
My son has a price to pay,
and that's on me.
1003
00:38:56,692 --> 00:38:58,461
But us getting to this truth,
1004
00:38:59,111 --> 00:39:02,323
us being free from all of this...
1005
00:39:04,033 --> 00:39:06,035
...we owe that to you.
1006
00:39:08,538 --> 00:39:10,072
Well,
1007
00:39:10,139 --> 00:39:13,251
your family can come back from this.
1008
00:39:13,389 --> 00:39:14,390
Stronger,
1009
00:39:14,710 --> 00:39:16,679
with a fresh start.
1010
00:39:17,313 --> 00:39:19,682
You got some work to do
in the community, though.
1011
00:39:20,442 --> 00:39:22,044
To repair what you helped break.
1012
00:39:22,225 --> 00:39:25,495
But the good thing is Daoud
is already doing his part.
1013
00:39:25,727 --> 00:39:26,728
What do you mean?
1014
00:39:27,056 --> 00:39:29,225
He's in the studio right now,
1015
00:39:29,659 --> 00:39:33,462
finishing where you
and Dre Bids left off.
1016
00:39:35,898 --> 00:39:38,467
? No more funerals or forever you rest ?
1017
00:39:38,534 --> 00:39:40,937
? Let's put the guns down,
no more mettle to test ?
1018
00:39:41,003 --> 00:39:43,573
? You might not understand now,
but nevertheless ?
1019
00:39:43,639 --> 00:39:45,942
? It's a vicious cycle,
how we be peddling death ?
1020
00:39:46,008 --> 00:39:49,111
? The writing's on the wall and
I can read, spawned by greed ?
1021
00:39:49,178 --> 00:39:51,514
? It's genocide at breakneck speed ?
1022
00:39:51,581 --> 00:39:53,616
? And we don't have to murder
to succeed ?
1023
00:39:53,683 --> 00:39:57,119
? It's all about mindset, let's
change ours from lead to lead ?
1024
00:39:57,144 --> 00:39:59,647
? Teach growth, not be still into debt ?
1025
00:39:59,672 --> 00:40:01,441
? And, no, I'm not killing 'em yet ?
1026
00:40:01,591 --> 00:40:03,159
- ? I was frontline... ?
- Got to say,
1027
00:40:03,184 --> 00:40:04,919
I'm kind of feeling it.
1028
00:40:06,729 --> 00:40:08,497
Well, the truth is, this track
would still be locked away
1029
00:40:08,522 --> 00:40:10,124
if it wasn't for your help.
1030
00:40:11,701 --> 00:40:12,902
I know it wasn't easy.
1031
00:40:12,969 --> 00:40:14,103
Our pleasure.
1032
00:40:14,170 --> 00:40:15,238
- It was a nightmare.
- It's a nightmare.
1033
00:40:15,304 --> 00:40:16,606
Don't ever ask us to do that again.
1034
00:40:18,841 --> 00:40:22,511
Look, I know not being able to be seen
1035
00:40:22,578 --> 00:40:24,647
using a computer is not ideal.
1036
00:40:24,714 --> 00:40:26,082
- It's more like impossible.
- Untenable.
1037
00:40:26,148 --> 00:40:27,917
- It's harrowing.
- Bad for our relationship.
1038
00:40:27,984 --> 00:40:29,093
Still,
1039
00:40:29,118 --> 00:40:31,553
it was really nice to be
back in the saddle again.
1040
00:40:31,578 --> 00:40:33,647
What you need is your own spot.
1041
00:40:33,910 --> 00:40:35,144
Away from prying eyes.
1042
00:40:35,291 --> 00:40:37,193
Yeah. Because the city is full of those.
1043
00:40:37,543 --> 00:40:40,796
I may have managed to find
a place you can use.
1044
00:40:41,172 --> 00:40:43,266
Seriously? Are you...
1045
00:40:43,332 --> 00:40:46,135
are you taunting me?
Because d-don't taunt me.
1046
00:40:46,260 --> 00:40:47,887
I'm not taunting.
1047
00:40:48,604 --> 00:40:52,008
It's an area of condemned subway tunnel.
1048
00:40:53,709 --> 00:40:55,044
Right below the bar.
1049
00:40:59,348 --> 00:41:00,983
No.
1050
00:41:02,952 --> 00:41:04,787
How did you pull it off?
1051
00:41:04,847 --> 00:41:06,815
Me? Oh, no.
1052
00:41:07,056 --> 00:41:09,058
I had nothing to do with it.
1053
00:41:09,125 --> 00:41:11,306
Because this space no longer exists.
1054
00:41:11,372 --> 00:41:12,662
All evidence of it
1055
00:41:12,687 --> 00:41:14,890
has been erased
from city records in a way that
1056
00:41:14,915 --> 00:41:18,018
cannot and will not
ever be traced back to me.
1057
00:41:18,167 --> 00:41:19,869
And no one else knows
about it, either...
1058
00:41:19,936 --> 00:41:21,237
Not the Feds or the military.
1059
00:41:21,304 --> 00:41:22,872
To their knowledge, this whole place
1060
00:41:22,939 --> 00:41:24,240
has been sealed off for good.
1061
00:41:24,307 --> 00:41:25,875
Okay, well, what about
his digital footprint?
1062
00:41:25,900 --> 00:41:27,067
- If anyone tracks him...
- No.
1063
00:41:27,176 --> 00:41:29,278
We're gonna have
to replace a few things.
1064
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,735
Leech a different electric source.
1065
00:41:32,782 --> 00:41:36,118
Reroute a network junction box.
1066
00:41:36,352 --> 00:41:38,054
And no-no more stupid risks.
1067
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,589
Right? If we can do all that,
1068
00:41:40,656 --> 00:41:42,992
we could be completely invisible.
1069
00:41:43,017 --> 00:41:45,185
The only difference is, now,
1070
00:41:45,294 --> 00:41:47,096
you can leave.
1071
00:41:50,066 --> 00:41:52,735
So, what do you think?
1072
00:41:57,206 --> 00:41:59,775
I think I got my life back.
