Hey, stop! Hey!

You ready to go, Mom?

No, I've got two hours
overtime. I told 'em I needed it.

Here.

My check.

You're not goin' out
tonight, are ya, Danny?

No. I'm workin' on a design.

You're gonna get arrested again.

I told you it's dangerous.

I wonder how hot that steam is.

What's not dangerous?

I'm make 'em, you steam 'em, huh?

Look, I go down to those
tracks and I'm special.

They call me the King, I
earned that. It feels good.

See ya later.

My mother's workin' two
hours overtime tonight.

Gee, a person
who's able to draw that good

ought to be gettin' dollars for it.

Oh, yeah?

How're you payin' off the
washing machine, you know?

Washing machine?

Whenever you get a wife.

And kids.

Like a wife named, um, Teresa?

Read me the instructions, huh? Teresa.

"The tail should be in
proportion to its broadest point."

Just like yours, huh, T?

You wanna get hit?
You wanna get hit really hard?

You're gonna have to catch me first!

- Well, I am gonna catch you!
- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah!
- Oh, yeah? Come on, come on.

It doesn't always have
to be a joke, Danny,

because it's not a joke.

You're gonna be gettin' outta school soon

and we gotta make some plans.

What're we gonna do? How
are we gonna get outta here?

Who gets out?

We do.

At least, I do.

I've been in foster homes
since I can remember.

Now I want a place of my
own. A life of my own.

Why don't you grow up, T?

Look where you are!

I know where I am.

I'm gonna be gettin' far away from here

and I'm not gonna wait forever to do it.

I'm not.

Good morning, my good man.

Hey, Kirk. What's goin' down?

Lots is goin' down.

Best be liftin' off, son.

You're talkin' about a 10 dime drop

and outta my usual territory.

Well, just so long you
understand Kirk don't fly

his spaceship into unknown
galaxies, you know what I mean?

Pull over.

That's cool, then. You know and I know.

I'll be there with the girl.

I'm gonna use a lady for this one. Ciao.

Yeah?

Well, maybe I don't feel like drivin'...

Come on.

We're just gonna talk about
this punk, that's all.

Hell, man, he was walkin' along!

He was showin' himself,
showin' his dollars!

My dollars!

Well, I didn't know that, man!

You don't carry his dollars.

He carry Kirk's dollars and
that's what you took, goofball!

Well, I didn't know! I didn't
know he jock for you, man.

So what'd he have, 162?

You be tellin' me you gonna miss that?

- Yeah, I tell you, man!
- How you be tellin' me?

You don't be talkin' up into my face!

Hey, stop on over there!

Hey, what I got, I keep,

and if I let somebody
take a nickel or a penny,

then pretty soon they're
gonna be takin' my limousine,

or my hat!

You wanna be takin' my hat, huh?

You wanna be takin' my hat?

Hey, come here!

The more you got, the more they take away!

And a man protects himself!

Kirk protects himself!

Let's book it, Captain.

You, you're crazy!

Let's go, man!

- Just stop on over here.
- You all right, Captain?

I think I'll conduct
myself on an interview.

What's that?

Look at that car.

Hey, two!

Beg your pardon, young lady, but I, uh,

could not help but notice that
you could use a reenergize,

not to say new dress.

It'd be my honor to buy such dress.

Get lost.

You're perhaps insulted that
I mentioned your wardrobe?

I'm no whore.

I see.

You think I'm a pimp.

May I ask what you're reading?

Huckleberry Finn.

Afraid I haven't read
any of the man's books.

That's the title, you ape.

Of course you will realize

that I never had your education.

Yet I guess I've still
managed in my ignorance.

Can I take you for a short drive?

No.

I just wanna talk to
you about earning money

and not having to hurt no one.

Now how much money am I talkin' about?

Oh, I'm filled with suspense.

Thousands.

Many thousands.

Now you're a bright girl with old clothes.

That's gotta be interesting to you.

You think I'd dress in threads like these

if I had the girls?

That's 42nd Street, sweet lady!

Then what do you handle?

Only what I can get away with.

You're under 16, aren't you, girl?

Yeah. So what?

You're under 16 and
you got plans, don't you?

Bright girl with the
plans. Where are they?

Over some rainbow, am I not right?

Come on, take a drive with me.

Nothing's gonna happen to you,

except you're gonna hear about money.

You know what money is, don't you?

Money is the future.

Money is respect.

Money is love, and money
makes plans happen.

Come on, let's take a short drive.

Would you like a drink
or something to smoke?

No.

Allow me to introduce myself.

My name is Kirk, Captain of this ship.

In it I sail all the galaxies
of the city.

That's ridiculous.

So tell me, how can I earn all this money?

Well, that's easy. When
do you turn 16, pretty lady?

In April.

April 10.

Ah, well, Aires, huh?

You Aires do real well
in this line of work.

You ever been arrested?

No.

I didn't think so.

I saw you sitting there reading and I was-

What line of work?

Now you're thinkin' I
put stuff in little kids.

Dope.

Entertainment.

Something for rich folks to do

that ain't got anything
better to do with their time

than to stuff something up their nose.

- No, let me tell-
- Now listen, girl.

This isn't for kids. There's
some fine money for you here.

We sell a kind of cocktail for
grownups who like cocktails.

What do you care about that?

You clean, under 16. Won't
get tried as an adult.

Worse can happen to you is
you get your hand slapped.

You got six months, pretty eyes.

It could mean about 50,000 or thereabouts.

50,000?

Then you retire.

I got a birthday in just a couple of days.

Then I got a hard retirement
ahead of me.

A hard, hard retirement.

You're not an idiot, girl.

You're no fool.

Sell the rich folks what they want.

Permit me to, uh, reenergize your dress.

Take us to a store.

What're you doin'?

Standin' around.

What're you gonna do,
give me a hard time?

No. Why should I care?

You care. Don't act with me.

Well, talk to me. Since
you're here, say something.

Nice dress.

That's right.

It's a good dress.

- He's garbage.
- What do you know about it?

Look, I know enough!

I would've thought you had more brains.

Oh, I've got brains, Danny.

I wanna get far away from
here and that's a fact.

You don't. Another fact.

See how smart I am?

Look, it's gonna get all over you.

What are you worried about, Danny?

That it's against the law?

Well what are you? King 65?

You're King of the Line!

Most famous dude burnin'
trains in this city.

There's a difference.

Sure there is.

Hold it!

Get in here, boy.

Move it!

Come on.

All right, sit down.

Now lookie here.

A white boy. A white
boy writer.

You must be a toy, huh?

Where you from, Flatbush? Yonkers?

I ain't no toy!

You ever seen the tag King 65?

Yeah, I seen it.

So what? Is that your tag?

Look, that's all I gotta say to you.

I'm the King of the Line is what I am!

Oh, my.

Feel those goosebumps
risin' up and down my arms.

Well, King, you sure picked
the wrong tunnel tonight.

This platform's had two rapes this week.

As a matter of fact, I was
countin' on catchin' that creep

and I thought for a
minute you were my man,

till I heard all that sprayin',

and then I knew I just
had me another damn pest.

Pest?

I'm an artist!

All right, you're an artist.

Ask any one of the other writers.

Just ask 'em who's the best.

You're an artist.

Every couple of weeks
they strip these cars

down to the buff.

Then your so-called works of
art go down in an acid bath.

Well, they don't all.

I've had some cars on the line for months.

You call yourself an artist?

Look, all you do is
paint over these windows

so that some cop like me
can't see some poor dude

gettin' his head bashed in,
or some lady gettin' hassled.

All right, on your feet.

Assume the position.

What's your name, King?

Danny Baker.

Am I goin' in?

No, I got more important
things to do, but look,

I know your face now, so
you'd be makin' a big mistake

to hit this line again.

Now what do we got here?

It's my sketch.

Don't tear it up, huh?

If you saw that up on another car,

would you know it's mine?

Yeah. I might.

It's got a style.

You got real talent, Danny.

It's a shame you waste it.

I mean, most people who see
this, there's just so much

trouble in their lives,
you know what I mean?

They hate it.

They hate what you do.

They only like it when
it's been washed off.

We'll see how good you really are.

Smell those fumes.

How do you kids keep
from being asphyxiated?

You ought to be in art school.

Art school?

Nah, you know what that is.

"Here's how you do an arm.

And this is the way a
tree's supposed to be done."

It's just more law. You know what I mean.

Nah, this is pure.

I mean this is just the way I wanna do it

and then there's no rule, right?

I mean, that's the point.

The whole point's for it to be lawless.

Where's your daddy?

The last time I saw him, he
was runnin' away from home.

Well, you know what
I could do, you know?

Trespassing, defacing public property.

But listen, you keep drawing.

Let me see some of your stuff, all right?

But look, this time...

Keep it off the walls.

And if I catch you again,
I'll haul you in righteously.

Hey, it's cool.

Maybe I'll draw you a picture.

Thanks.

You do that.

I'm easy to find. I'm all over the place.

Just like graffiti.

The gentleman's expecting you, Teresa.

He'll be in that lobby across the street.

He'll have an ivory necklace
and he'll be a white man.

Are you nervous?

Yeah.

Get your head at rest, young lady.

After all, you're just a child.

They don't apply the
adult law to you, Teresa.

Not for six months.

So you here to deliver something?

Yeah.

Well, give it to me.

Thank you.

You don't want any wine?

I keep forgetting what
children I'm dealing with.

Well now, Mr. Gavin,

your bank account don't forget that fact.

Kirk, no need to talk business.

Let's just, uh, get acquainted,

meeting with this new friend of yours.

That job you did for me
yesterday wasn't hard, was it?

Teresa.

Beautiful name.

Italiano?

No, I lost my folks when I was a baby,

but the best I've been able
to figure is I'm Puerto Rican

and some kind of European.

- I myself am Northern.
- North everywhere.

You got a birthday comin' up, Kirk.

September 25, my good man.

Just over a week.

I am then retired and
looking for other work.

Oh, there's always work,
for a man with responsibility.

I like the girl. She'll do well.

Captain Kirk don't screw up.

Mr. Gavin, I don't wanna get
nervous about my birthday.

- You know I mean?
- We all know the rules, Kirk.

You get caught dealing after
you're 16, there's no escape.

You pull hard time.

Right, so?

So, don't turn 16.

Stay young forever, like me.

Kirk, Kirk!

Kirk! Look.

I was asleep. I was just takin' a nap.

What're you talkin' about?

Captain, you ain't gonna
believe this. Come on, man.

Oh, man!

I just closed my eyes, that's all.

Hey, get over here, miss thang!

Wait for me!

I should've kicked in
your door last night!

What're you talkin' about?

You followed me! You trashed his car!

He wanted to kill somebody last night.

Do you think I'm kidding?

No.

Look, I did it yesterday.

I didn't like it, but I did it.

I'm in it now, Danny, and
you can't change that.

Look, do what you want to, T. So will I.

He's just having it
repainted, that's all.

He's havin' it repainted today.

I mean, what does he care?
He's got a lot of money.

Sure. That's how he buys things.

He's buying you.

Look, he's buying you, Teresa.

All I've heard from you
are bright ideas and plans.

And then when someone sticks
some money under your nose,

you gave up.

You gave up easy.

No, not easy.

I've asked you a long
time to work it with me.

How to get out of here and what to do.

But you never cared.

You don't need me.

So don't play it big with me now, Danny.

You stay out of it.

- Good afternoon.
- Afternoon, Officer.

You know there was a man
in that building over there,

had a big beard.

Had lots of rings on his fingers.

I didn't like the way he looked.

So I had a squad car run him in.

Oh, yeah?

I've seen you around before.

You the dude keepin' all
the streets safe and sound.

Well, someday they'll give
you a gold watch for it.

Hey, you have a warrant for searchin' her?

Probable cause?

No way.

Hope this isn't what I think it is.

Just earnin' my gold watch.

Okay, come on. Let's go.

Hey, man, you wastin'
my time, you know that?

This dude's more scared
then I'm supposed to be.

I think I should represent him, Officer.

I have to inform you that under the-

Lieutenant Steadman, this
is a very anxious attorney.

How do you do? I have to
inform you that under the laws-

You're new at this.

You firm sure sent you to
the wrong part of town, man.

Under the laws, minors are-

Yes, I know they're both under 16.

- And furthermore-
- Yes, I know.

There was no transaction.

Possession by a juvenile of
a small amount of cannabis-

Man, they sent down a
real turkey, didn't they?

Where's my regular lawyer, turkey?

It's a real bad trip, isn't it, Charlie?

I mean, a man puts in
six years in law school

and he ends up in the
garbage cans of New York,

bailing out little kids.

Hey, who's your client?

Albert Gavin?

I bet you had other plans,
didn't you, Counselor?

Officer, you know the DA won't file.

Furthermore, Mr. Kirk was clean.

So take him.

No, him. Not her.

What are you crazy man?
Hey, she's comin' with us!

Your case isn't so easy now, is it?

Oh, no, possession's not easy at all.

- Is it?
- Uh, no. No, no.

So, get him out of here.

Hey, just hold on, man!
She's comin' with us, man!

Hey, I'm gettin' my regular lawyer!

I'm getting him and coming back, dude!

Say, finish these for me, will ya, dude?

I'll give Teresa a little
tour of the resort.

Hey, Charlie.

You can't do this. I'm under 16.

Don't tell me what I can't do, girl.

I can hold you here for 24 hours

and I can make it very unpleasant.

Nothing like a jail cell, is there?

Everybody thinks they got it
all worked out, in their heads.

Till they get behind these bars to realize

they haven't got anything
worked out at all.

It doesn't make any sense.

You were clean, never been arrested.

Yeah, I've been a very good little girl.

You were.

Possession of drugs by a
juvenile's a tough wrap

and don't you kid yourself about that.

What kinda grades do you
get? Pretty good I'll bet, huh?

- When I want 'em, I get 'em.
- Then why?

Explain it to me.

Look, what I am is case number F2121-L

on the City of New York's
books with a foster family

that never has less than five
kids floating around in it.

So I get good grades.
So I never got arrested.

Well, so what?

Teresa!

- Are you all right?
- Well, it's the King.

Word sure travels fast on these streets.

What is this, Banks?
What're you gonna do with her?

Why don't the three of
us talk about that, huh?

Come on in here. Give me a
couple of minutes to sign out.

While you two chat.

You two can help me. Teamwork
is always the best way.

You know that. Gavin sure knows it.

I mean, he and Kirk make a great team.

Look at the bundle they pull
in. They don't run any risk.

Teresa's the only one that runs any risk.

Look, Banks you wanna bust Gavin,

but there's nothin' we can do to help ya.

Why, sure there is!

It's a little matter of teamwork,
that's all. You know that!

I mean, all you subway
artists got your little clubs,

your little groups, your
little cliques, your little-

Yeah and I don't belong
to any of 'em. I work alone.

Look, Danny, let me
put it to you like this.

You already owe me one favor.
Now we need to make it two.

Teresa's already working with Gavin.

I mean, I can use that now.

Just call it my own creativity, all right?

What's the matter, Bubsy?

You think you're the only
street artist around here?

How is your drawings coming, anyway?

- I'm clean.
- Oh, I see.

He's wearing these little
dainty doctors gloves.

Really cute, but where's my drawing?

Come on, you promised me
a painting, didn't you?

Let's go down to the tracks.
I'll pick one out for you.

Uh-uh. No, you promised me a painting.

I don't wanna see that horrible garbage.

I mean, you really think
that a punk with a spray can

is ever anything but a
punk with a spray can?

Hey, Danny is an artist.

An artist? So where's my painting?

You're still just a punk with a spray can!

You want a painting?

How about an old grandma
on a rocking chair?

Or maybe a baby with a pair
of wings or something, huh?

That's painting for you, right?

Yeah, right. Boring!

When was the last time
you opened your eyes

and saw what real artists were up to?

You wanna see some art?
I'll show you some art.

Come on, let's catch a
train. I got the time.

Well, come on!

Where to?

Across the river to
the land of surprises.

Are you scared to even look?

Let's go.

- Thank you.
- Enjoy.

It's on me, King.

Just have a look at it
and I'll see ya later.

Well, what do you think?

Told you in the tunnels what I thought.

These paintings hang in
the middle of Manhattan.

So do mine.

Yeah, but a lot of these people get paid

for what they do, Danny.

How about you? You get
paid for trashin' trains?

How about it, Danny?

Wouldn't you like to get
paid for what you do?

I may know someone who can help.

I'll be in touch, Teresa.

Look, I need good teamwork,

and you need a chance.

I'll be in touch.

You see that?

The writer who tagged himself "Snow"?

I see his tag every now and then.

Why Snow? Why does he call himself that?

I don't know.

He's called himself that
for a long time now.

He's gotta be 26 by now.

Lives with his Mom.

It's stupid.

Anyone 26 who's still writin'
on walls is just stupid.

Hey, T?

You ever been there before?

The museum?

Nah. Manhattan.

You ever been there before?

No. Never.

Me neither.

Weird, huh?

"The land of surprises."

What's the matter? You
mad about somethin'?

No. Go to your room, Danny.

Danny, please.

Please, I yelled at him and
he slapped me. It's nothing-

Look, he ought to be
shoved down a toilet.

Danny, it's nothing.
It's the way we are.

It's not your problem, honey, please.

- No, no.
- Danny.

It's not your problem.

You leave my mother
alone, you stinkin' garbage!

Shut up, your old lady and me

will take care of our
problems our own way.

Why don't you go paint a
train car? You're so tough.

Or maybe there's something
else you wanna do.

Or maybe there's something
else you think you can do.

What are you, deaf and blind?

Look, you were up there
too long. I just got sleepy.

Hey, look.
Just shut up, all right?

Look, a dude's got a
right to catch some Zs!

I don't wanna hear it anymore, okay?

I said shut up!

I don't need this, man.

Oh, my mother's heart!

Look, what you throwin' things for?

So then move! Next time move, right?

- Huh, huh, huh?
- All right, all right!

Kirk!

Mr. Gavin. How are you
this fine morning, sir?

I'd like for you
and me to take a little walk.

Must be somethin' I can do for you.

You can answer a question.

What happened yesterday
with you and the girl?

It's just a hassle, nothin' big.

That nigger cop just done
me, man. I don't know why.

You know who he was, Captain?

His name is Banks.

Oh, yeah, I seen his face around before-

His name is Banks.

You know his face?

You're gonna be 16 in a couple of days.

So you got two choices.

You can, uh, walk away from it all,

your own territory, the girls.

No. That won't do.

You could deal with men like Banks.

You good enough?

Are you tough enough to be of use

when you're no longer a juvenile?

You gonna grow up, Kirk?

Be a man?

Obadiah?

Some fool callin' himself Captain Kirk

say he wanna talk to you!

Banks!

- Banks.
- Hey, King, what's the word?

The word? The word's interested.

I'll walk along with you, okay?

Sure, just don't obstruct my view.

A man in my position
needs his view, you know.

Hey, look uh, you said maybe
I could get paid for drawin'.

Uh, well, I'm interested.
I wanna talk about it.

What're you on, Danny?
You been smokin' angel dust?

No, man, I don't use
dope. That's for losers.

You wrote somethin' tonight, right?

Must be a thing of beauty.
A real burner, okay?

Man, it was perfect.

It was so good I had a whole gang of toys

sittin' on top of a car watchin' me

with their eyes popped out.

So now you're high on it, right?

You're up and you wanna talk
about a distinguished career?

Step into my office here.

Hey, Charlie, you're early tonight.

Tonight I'm bein' talent
agent, so I'm off my schedule.

Sit down, Danny. What'll you have, coffee?

No, I'll take a strawberry milkshake.

Where do you
think you are, in Scarsdale?

We'll have coffee and a
strawberry shake, Ken.

- So what's the offer, Banks?
- Well, there are conditions.

Oh, yeah, I know. I gotta
help you squash the toad.

It's no problem. My pleasure.

There's one other.

There'll be no more burners.

No more writing on public walls anyplace.

All right. Tell me, Banks.

Comic books.

You do know what they are, right?

Well, I have this friend
who owes me favors.

I've always found that favors

are better then money in the pocket.

So who is he?

An executive.

Works for the firm that puts
out what they like to call

"illustrated publications".

I even told him about you

and you know he'd never hear of King 65?

All right, so what's the arrangement?

There is none. The only
guarantee is the interview.

But our deal still stands.

As of now, there'll be no more burnin',

no more trashin' the trains.

Now is it a deal?

Deal.

That's the man to call.

Dale Sherman?

Do it, Danny. Be nice to yourself.

And do it for Teresa, too.

You don't know what it's like,

not to marry the one that you love.

It's a mistake.

Level, Banks.

I mean do you think anyone's
really gonna care what I write?

Or how?

I don't know.

The only guarantee is the interview.

But the world's full of chances, Danny.

Pick one.

Listen, you learn how to make
coffee, I'll be back, Ken.

Hey, thanks!

Banks, Banks.

Help!

Help! Somebody please help me!

Help!

Help, somebody, please!

Call an ambulance!

Please! Go call an ambulance or somethin'!

Don't just stand there! Please help!

Don't move. Don't move.

You'll be all right. You'll be all right.

Just don't move.

Don't move. You'll be all right.

Please!

Okay, bring them in.

You look right through here, Danny.

That's him. The one
with the busted up face.

Who got to have the fun?

Well, we've had little
Obi in a lineup before.

That's a bad news kid.

We never could hold him.

- Nice job, Officer.
- "Nice job."

We couldn't try him as an
adult 'cause he's only 13.

So we said hey, put him over
on hold over at family court.

When they do, they'd lost him.

His file was lost in the shuffle.

Somehow he just walked out.

Yeah and then he kills Charlie Banks.

Now, you saw the shooting, right?

Look, he did it. I
saw it from the diner.

Wait a minute. Charlie
wasn't killed in the diner.

Did you see the shooting?

Look, he did it! I grabbed
him, I saw him there!

But did you see him shooting?

Are you an eye witness or aren't you?

Look, he wasn't found with a weapon.

If you're not an eye
witness, I've got nothing!

Danny!

I didn't see you all day yesterday.

God, I was so worried after
I heard about what happened.

What's this?

I promised Banks I'd go see this guy.

About drawing?

Yeah.

It won't mean anything, but I gotta go.

It does mean something, Danny. It does.

I gotta do this and then
I gotta do somethin' else.

What?

Danny, don't do anything stupid.

I gotta get Kirk.

There's no future.

Not till I've settled that.

Danny, let go!

You can't change things.

I can't walk away from this, T.

Banks cared and he did somethin' about it.

How often does that ever happen?

Will you help me, Teresa?

Help me out?

Yeah.

It's okay, Banks.

Just a little shot to
get me through the day.

Here, have a seat.

So, tell me.

How'd you happen to meet
Charlie and how is he?

He's dead.

Dead?

That's why I'm here.

Dead?

Yeah.

A kid killed him.

A kid?

How old?

14.

14 years old.

Charlie Banks cared about what he did.

I can't tell you how
sorry I am to hear this.

Well...

All right let's, let's talk about

what Charlie wanted us to talk about.

What is it that you want?
What is it you're looking for?

Well, you see, this is
the first time I ever really

thought about anything,
like, permanent, you know?

You wanna be a commercial artist, huh?

This is something you really
wanna do, like a career?

Sure.

How old are you, Danny?

- 17.
- 17.

You still in school?

Yeah.

But it's useless.

I wanna draw.

I really do.

This is graffiti, it's just graffiti.

But it's what I do.

Banks thought that, well, he
said that maybe you might be-

All right.

All right, just take it easy.

I'll tell you what.

I want to show this to some
other people who work here.

Just take it easy. You just, uh...

You just sit tight, all right?

Relax. I'll be back.

Danny? This is Agnes Shields.

Agnes, Danny Baker.

Hello, Danny.

Hi.

Why don't we all sit down, huh?

Danny, do you think
you'd like to apprentice?

Agnes thinks you might
do well in her department.

Apprentice?

Does that mean like try out or somethin'?

No, apprentice means you're hired,

but at less pay than you'll be
getting if the job works out.

A job?

Drawing?

That's right.

Danny, it's not that you just have talent.

For someone with no formal training,

you have remarkable technique, too.

Charlie would be very pleased.

Teresa!

T!

They like me.

Yeah, they said I was good.

But they said I gotta learn.

And there's all kinda other
things I gotta learn, but,

they said it wouldn't be
like a miracle or nothin'

for me to learn it, you know?

Yeah.

Oh, T.

Everything's buzzin' inside me.

Listen, I want us to do
everything right, okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, Banks.

Look, at your place, okay?

So I'll see ya, T.

Yeah, September 25th, 1965.

Now you're sure?

I want his birthday. I
don't want any other date.

Kirk was born September 25th, 1965.

It's, uh, it's a Monday.

That's three days. What's the big deal?

What're you gonna throw
him, a birthday party?

- Yeah, somethin' like that.
- Hey, Danny-

Hey, let me see it, huh?

Come on, Steadman, let me see it!

What're you gonna do, take
the law in your own hands?

Yeah and what about the lineup, huh?

What about Obi and Kirk?

- Sit down, Dan-
- No, I ain't gonna sit down.

I got somethin' to take care of.

No, we got somethin' to take care of.

That's Monday, 10 PM, at Coney.

- Now, you listen, kid.
- No!

You and your partner, you be there.

That's Monday, 10 PM, at Coney!

I got a debt and you're
going to help me settle it.

Hey, Danny!

Who did that?

You know who did that?

King. King 65.

Yeah, that's gotta be the King.

Are you sure? Best to be sure.

Yeah, yeah. We're sure.

You can tell by his style.

Where does this King live?

I don't know.

But you can find out, can't you?

Yeah. Yeah.

Now, they're strong, T. Real strong.

After eight hours, you wake him
up and give him another dose

and then again, eight hours later.

Well, what if he's busy or something?

What if he turns me down?

He won't.

You can do it, T. I know you can.

You sure about this stuff?

Where'd you get it?

I got it.

Danny, what if something goes wrong?

What if I kill him?

It will be a pleasure, sweet
thing. No problem at all.

We'll land on your street
momentarily. Yeah, okay.

Ciao.

We'll meet the girl on Bushwick.

Then you find Obi and send him
to our friend, the painter.

"The King."

King gonna be dethroned.

For $280, give
me the name of the president

who was Commander and
Chief of the United States

- during World War I.
- Abraham Lincoln.

Commander and Chief, World War I.

Come on, turkey! Abraham Lincoln!

- Woodrow Wilson!
- For $280, Woodrow Wilson!

Woodrow Wilson?

Who the hell is Woodrow Wilson?

Hey, you ever heard of any Woodrow Wilson?

Nah. Never heard of no Wilson.

Some jive question that was.

If you can tell
us her name and the movie

that she won an Oscar,
you'll win the prize.

Yeah, they're
friends of my father from work.

And they got the
money? They already got it?

One of 'em had a wife die.

He got some insurance money.

Got his old lady to pop for his score.

Now that's a dude that knows
how things should work.

When they asked me if
you could handle quantity,

I told them you could do anything.

I like gratitude in a woman.

I like it very much.

And I remember you said
Monday was your birthday, right?

So true.

With this bein' only
Saturday, we still have time.

Do you want me to set it up?

Sunday night.

Lord rested and Kirk did
his last deal.

Maybe we should celebrate.

Little party before the job?

Quiet.

Private.

Just you and me?

Alone?

Well, I don't know your friends.

Some motel, okay?

Forgive my impoliteness, pretty eyes,

but since when you been
spreading it around?

You didn't have the thought of love

the first time you and me talked.

Well, fine! We'll do the drop!

No party.

Wait, now hold on!
Don't get outta orbit.

Look, I told you I'm no whore!

Now what'd I say? Didn't
I say I was honored?

- No, you said-
- Sure, I did!

Just come around, that's all.

I mean, I know I'm worth it.

I just didn't realize you knew
it so well, too.

Hey, you know who was
chief during the war?

Will Wood. Will Wood was chief.

And I didn't even go to school.

When do you turn 16, Teresa?

- Six months.
- Oh.

Well, here's what I think.

Day after tomorrow, Kirk joins the ranks

of tax-paying adults
and you and I will talk.

Make a lot of money in six months, Teresa.

Mr. Gavin?

Maybe you'd like to know I found out

who defaced our properties
and where he lives.

I've got little Obi waiting
to greet him right now.

Kirk.

Just some punk subway writer.

Local punk, big shot calls himself King.

"King 65."

Kirk, shut up.

Deal with King like I did the cop.

Shut up!

- What's goin' on?
- Kirk knows it's you.

He's got somebody over
there waiting to kill you.

Okay, so they know. That's
good, I'm glad they know.

You can't go home, Danny.

Well, then I'll go somewhere else!

I'm not backin' down, not for anything.

- Where?
- I don't know!

I've never lived any place else but here.

I'm goin' with you, Danny.

Do you want me to?

I don't wanna go alone.

I love you, Teresa.

Room 212.

Don't turn on the light.

I don't wanna see where we are.

All right, then.

The King gets one more
night before he falls.

That's how I see it.

Now, you listen to me, Obadiah.

I need you for somethin' else.

I got a meeting tonight, 10 o'clock.

Hey, man, listen to me.

Obadiah!

This car ain't ours.

This paint belongs to someone else.

Don't that mean nothin' to you?

Now, do you mind listenin' to me?

Tonight, 10 o'clock, Coney Island.

In front of the big hotdog stand.

You be there, Obadiah.
I need a little backup.

I want you there by nine, and
you wait until I get there.

You hear me?

You be there.

Man, you hear me?

You be there.

Danny, where have you been?

Why weren't you home last night?

I got a surprise for ya.

Close your eyes, huh?

Come on. Close 'em.

What's this?

It's a man. He offered me a job.

A job?

Everything's crazy.

I didn't even know I was comin' here.

Some would say a lot of steam
helps you keep lookin' young.

Oh, sure.

Look at the walkin' proof.

I just want you know that I know

it ain't ever been easy for you.

And I know it's always been hard.

You've always worked hard.

What's wrong, Danny?

You worked hard and you raised a kid.

I wanted to tell you that...

To tell you that I love you.

And I'm gonna be okay.

Don't worry about me 'cause
I ain't gonna let you down.

I love you, Danny.

How you doin'?

You lookin' fine.

We're gonna have a good time tonight.

That's right, Cap'n.

So, uh, I didn't want
my driver hangin' around

while you and I had our
party, you know what I mean?

Sure.

So, I'm gonna be drivin' myself.

Now, legally, I'm not
old enough to be drivin',

so I'm gonna be very cool, you know?

I'd sure hate to get a ticket.

Let's get in.

This must be 100 proof, Mama.

Ol' Captain Kirk's feeling spacey.

Well, you just take it easy, Kirk,

'cause it's your birthday.

Well, I'm gonna have
a lot of good birthdays, Mama.

You know what I mean?

Sure.

I earned them.

I hustled.

Some people hate me, you know?

But I don't know why.

I mean, what did I ever do
that I wasn't told I could do?

Well, you did right by me, Kirk,

and I'm not gonna forget it.

Well, you're the only one, girl.

I don't know.

I don't know what anybody
expects, you know?

I mean, what do they want?

You did right, Kirk.

Now, rest easy.

Fix me another one, Mama.

You did that first one real good.

I'll mellow out.

- Then we'll get real close.
- You think I'll be able to do

what Mr. Gavin wants me to do?

You're gonna fall in love
with this job, pretty eyes.

You're gonna be a boss.

It's your streets you own.

Girl...

Gonna nap before we party.

'Cause we gotta be up for tonight.

That's right, Kirk.

Are you thirsty, Kirk?

Uh, yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Five.

Four, three.

Two, one.

♪ Happy birthday dear Kirk ♪

♪ Happy birthday dear Kirk ♪

All right, you have
the room for another day.

But a young girl like
you should be in school.

I am in school.

Wait, wait, wait,
wait. Go back to sleep.

Go back to sleep. Go back to sleep.

Lay down. Just lay down.

You were just dreamin'. It's nothin'.

Go to sleep.

Go to sleep, Kirk.

Okay, now the guy's gonna
be wearing a red baseball hat

and I'll be right across the street, okay?

Time to wake up, Captain.

Time to make your last run.

It's okay. He's gonna be here.

Hey, Danny, what's goin' down?

Just walk.

Come on, come on! let's take a walk!

Come on!

There he is. The man with the red cap.

Go make the drop, girl.

Me?

Be nice to the Captain.

I can't!

He's my dad's boss!

I told him I knew someone.
He can't know I deal.

I can't do it!

Well, you'll get over
those sort of hangups fast.

Got somethin' for the Captain?

Yeah, if you're him, and
you got somethin' for me.

Let's see it.

- You're under arrest!
- Hey what's this jive, man?

You have the right to remain silent.

Hey, man, you wastin' your time, man.

You don't know who
you're dealin' with, man.

Captain Kirk, bro.

- That's right.
- Hey, cocaine, huh?

You guys are wastin' your time.

Good quality.

It's good enough to earn you
a good long hard stretch.

Pig, you a day early and a
dollar short. I'm under age.

Come on, fool, we going to family court.

No, man. Family court is closed to you.

Doors are shut. You turned 16 today.

Tomorrow. Not till tomorrow.

No. Today, man.

You turned 16 at midnight last night,

and I was there to wish
you a happy birthday, Kirk,

or don't you remember?

Yeah. Yeah, sure, you don't remember.

25th, Kirk.

It's September 25th.

Let's go.

Hey, Mr. Gavin's gonna
be looking for you!

Evidence is evidence, Kirk.

Yo, come on! Give me a break, man!

Yeah, this time you're
gonna be in with the animals.

Yo, come on, man.

So you're gonna have to have a talk

- about Mr. Gavin, won't we?
- Please.

- Look.
- Just you and me, yeah?

Won't we?

- Come on, man.
- Right.

We'll have a little talk about it.

Come on, man! I help
you, you help me, man!

Come on!

Please! Come on, man!

Come on!

Give me a break, man! Come on!

Please! Come on, man, come on!

I gotta take you kids
down to the station.

I'm afraid I gotta hear
how you did all this.

Yeah, well, just as
long as we get some sleep

pretty soon, huh?

Well, to tell you the truth,

where you live is not
gonna be safe for a while.

I mean not for you.

Well, that's okay.

We're already outta there.

What do you mean
"out"? Where you gonna go?

The land of surprises.

Manhattan is as far as I've ever gone,

and it's far enough.

I'm an apprentice.

Easy, easy!

It's all over.

It's all over.
