All language subtitles for 1st Strike (2016) BR Eng

- Around the world LA
is viewed as the land of dreams.

Surf, sun,

beautiful women.

Hollywood, Rodeo Drive.

Fame, glamour, and movie stars.

I call LA the Big Facelift.

Before all the homes with
their fine trimmed lawns

and their golf courses,

and their high rises...

this place was a desert.

What you see isn't all there is.

In LA, you don't
have to be cool.

You just have to
act like you are.

Don't take anything
at face value.

Here, image is king.

The people who run the show,

that make the rules,

that have the education,

are no more moral

than the guy rummaging
through your trash

looking for cans and bottles.

They just have a way of
making it sound like they are,

and then they end up
buying their own bullshit

and con themselves into
believing they are.

The packaging is more
important than the product.

Consider the state's
three strike law.

One the outside it sounds
pretty fair, like baseball.

Three chances and you're out.

Of course, that
depends on what side

of the street you were born.

- Juanito?

- Juan?

Juan!

Juan!

- Juan!

What happened, Juanito?

Talk to me, Juan.

Juan?

- Hands, hands!

What's going on?

- Talk to me Juan!
- Hey, back away.

Back away from the door!
Back away!

- What's going on?

- Stay calm, stay calm.
- He's my brother.

Juan?
Juanito?

- It's the truth,
that's what happened.

- Come on, bro, tell me,
tell me what happened.

- It's the truth
that's what happened.

- You put yourself on
my side of the table,

and you listen,
listen to your story,

and then you take into
consideration that the bank

payroll and the second
suspect are still at large.

- But you know me.

- I thought I knew
your uncle Manny, too.

That was a long time ago.

- Please, Jimmy,
I don't want to lie to you.

- Well it wouldn't
be the first time

I was wrong about
somebody either.

- I'm sorry, but what can I say?

It's the truth.
I swear to you.

- I understand...

but I don't know
if anybody else will.

- Pop the trunk.

Come on out.

Here, you hold this letter.

- That's a pretty nice jacket.
- Shut up.

Mail this letter over there.

- He thinks he's Kobe.

- But he's cute.

♪ The life chose me

♪ No cameras

♪ Realest ever soul captured

♪ Street manners

♪ No question why
it's all captured ♪

♪ The magnitude
The cool the first to go ♪

- Go, let's go.
Fire it up!

Get the fuck out, come on!

- Manny is dead.
I'm a ghost.

- Shh.

I don't have time for that.

Manny is gone,
but you me, mama, Diana,

we're still a family.

- What does Diana think?

- She misses you.

She's curious.

I'm just trying
to find an opportunity

to tell her in the best way.

Let's talk about you.

- Fucking public lawyer said they
can blame me for Manny's death.

- And?

- They say I can
get a better deal.

If I rat myself out.

- We need to find
someone who cares.

- Why don't you get one of those
lawyers that work with you?

- They're contract lawyers.

It's complicated.

Look I don't have
time to explain.

Did Manny ever mention a
lawyer named... Alan Hartford?

- No I don't think so.

- I found his card
in Manny's wallet.

You sure you don't know him.

- I only know two things,
Manny's wallet and the lawyer.

And you need to
get him for me now.

- You can't
understand what you fear

by labeling it and
putting it in a box.

Any fool who's been to the zoo,

can see an animal in the cage

is less than half of what it is.

You'll never know a man's heart,

when you first rob
him of his youth.

- Otherwise driving
the get away car.

He's related
to the registered owner,

deceased Manny Garcia,

so a car jack defense
is implausible.

Had some priors as well,

mostly minors, but...

enough to destroy wrong time,
wrong place defense.

- You have to understand,
he's just a kid.

- The law regards
him as an adult.

The county has a 78%
conviction rate for jury trials

plus 93% when you
factor in plea bargains.

- Sounds like you
don't want the case.

- This deck is stacked.
If you expected to win.

No lawyer in their right
mind would want the case.

- How much do I
owe you for your time.

- Angie, please sit down.

- Really, Mr. Hartford.

- Please call me Alan.

- Look, Alan, I don't
want to waste your time.

- Angie, I'm just
trying to be honest.

Ms. Garcia,

could you please just
sit down for a moment.

Please.

- Angie.

- As I told you, your uncle
was a client of mine

and though I never
knew him a a friend,

I did find him to be
a man of his word.

Frankly, the news
of his involvement

in this bank robbery shocks me.

- It's a simple case of relapse.

- I don't think
it's that simple.

- Once a criminal
always a criminal.

You'd understand that if you
lived where I lived, Alan.

- Tell me you understand this.

It's a $10,000 retainer
from your Uncle Manny.

Postmarked on
the day of the robbery.

I believe your brother's story.

- But I thought you said
no one in their right mind

would want this case.

- When I went to bat
for your Uncle Manny,

he was facing his third strike,
a life behind bars.

Manny walked out of state
in less than 11 months.

- Hi Juan.

I'm Alan Hartford,

your sister Angie has
retained me to represent you.

- Yeah I know.

- An unusual series
of events and circumstances

has thrown us together,
and I'm believing,

knowing your uncle,
for a good reason.

Now, you're preliminary
hearing is tomorrow.

- Are they gonna ask
me any questions?

- The prosecution
will call certain

witnesses to testify
in front of the judge.

Take it easy.

I won't be calling you or any
of our potential witnesses

to testify at any of the prelim.

- These mother fuckers are
gonna ring me up like...

- A prelim is only so
the judge can decide

if there's enough evidence
to actually have a trial.

Now, you don't have many priors.

A couple of FI cards but,
no convictions.

- FI?

- You ever tell the
cops who you ran with?

- Yeah.

- You see them filling out these
little green cards while you talked?

- Yeah, but that
was a long time ago.

- How long?

- Like four or five years ago.
Like when I was 12.

Did I mess up?
- Not as bad as I have.

Look, Manny was a solid dude.

I respected him, we got to worry

about your ass right now, okay?

- I told them fools,
I don't know shit.

My Uncle Manny
said I could drive.

- You'll get 20
years for this punk.

- Juan, is someone at the door?

- It's just me.

- You're the baddest actor ever.

- Shut up man, that
was a piece of shit.

- No way, that's the
greatest flick I ever seen.

- Shut up, come on let's go.

- I told you, dick,
I don't have my license yet.

- So what, come on let's go.

♪ Los Halos

♪ Out here we play the angles

♪ Everybody getting money,
everybody gamble

♪ Hard to handle

♪ Los Halos going our things

♪ Stick your neck out ♪

- You said honor
always comes first.

- Never mind what I said,
just listen to me now.

- When you get respect?

- Respect and winning at life
are two different things.

- Well, the homies they're in.

- Hey look, you go in,
you never get out.

Make a right here.

Angie, your mom, Diana,
that's your family.

Fifth Street Muertos
preach brotherhood,

us against them.

That's all bullshit unless
you're in the joint.

And them guys preaching,
they're all lifers.

So they ain't got nothing to do.

The most important thing to them

is having a little
money on their books

or some homegirl to write em.

They're just using us.

And I'm going back
there to be with them.

- I don't understand.

- I've been a criminal
all my life.

And they're not
letting me forget it.

- But you're an actor now.

- I'm not an actor, I'm just
playing the thug that I am.

They say I gave up big
secrets to get that part

in "Gang of Five,"
and they wanted a piece of it.

That's just their angle
to keep me in.

Smile boy,
your uncle's got a plan.

It's your big day
behind the wheel.

That shit smells sweet.

Booyah.

- I know he's a good kid.

But he's got the FI cards,

the field identification
cards from several years back.

A long time ago, I know
he still isn't innocent.

But it's almost a moot point.

He claims allegiance
to the Muertos which,

fortunately is consistent
with his only tattoo.

- You have to
understand, he's just a kid.

- I understand, but
that little green card

leads to a very big word, gang.

Choices, choices.

Where I grew up,
the way I grew up,

my future looked as bright
as the bottom of a well.

A slave cutting
someone else's lawn.

Cleaning someone else's toilet.

Breaking my back to put food
on someone else's table.

And in the end for what?

Someone else's table scraps.

Me, I made the only
logical choice.

Live for today.

All that matters is now.

- What's up man?

- Where you going man?

- I'm going with Harvey, dawg.

- I can't let you in, dawg.

Sorry man, I can't let you in.

- Fuck, homey.

- Hey.

You're cute.

- Get out!

- Get they fuck out.

- Yeah.

- Hey, foo', check it out,
I think the one in the pink,

I think she likes you.

- Naw, Ace,
she just laughs at you.

- Dig, she was laughing at you.

Go over there and talk to her

if you gonna be
a pussy about it.

- I will, foo',
the night is still young.

Plus I got a lot
of catching up to do, homes.

What the fuck?

- I don't know foo',
but that fool

got all the hoes
standing in line.

- Javier?
- Yeah.

He must have hit
the lottery or something.

- No foo' that inking.

That's what get
the bitches heated up dawg.

- Oh, Adolf is calling us.

- What's the scene, Javi?
What's up.

- These are my boys.

You know Juan don't you?

- No.

- Sure you do,
you know Manny right?

That's his little nephew.

- You're Manny's nephew?

You don't look
like him, schoolboy.

- Yeah he got a lot
of catching up to do.

Shit but you gone be losing
some sleep tonight baby.

- Oh?

I'm thirsty, let's go
get something to drink.

- Yeah, boy.

- Man, I'm a get Marty

Before you get the stinky,
you got to get the inky first.

- Damn, woman.

Those are some nice papusas.

Damn.

Baby don't do that
to me, come on.

That's new.
Sukiyaki style, baby.

Damn.

- Hey, Ama.

- Hello, mijita.

- Hey, Grandma.

- How was school?

- Fine. We claydoughed
and played cooking.

- Is Juan home?

- Yes, he got home
about half an hour ago.

- Juan!

Juan!

Tell Juan I need
to speak with him,

not to go out anywhere tonight.

- He's not home?

- No it seems
he disappeared again.

- Is something wrong?

- I have to go into
class a little earlier,

so I'll see you guys
later, okay?

Be good.

- Okay, mommy.

Can I have a cookie?
- Yes, you know where they are.

I'll be in in a minute.

- Do you have a three?

Oh...
Yes.

- I win, I win, I win.

- Not fair, not fair, I had you.

- I'm the bestest.
Right, Grandma?

- Yes. My princess
are the bestest.

- Ma call a doctor.

- You need medicine
big or small.

- Big.

- Andale, Doctor, Adele.
Looks like he's a goner.

You remind me so much
of your Uncle Manny.

Yup.

Do you see anyone else here?

Call him.

Maybe I should say
the way he used to be.

You done it again, Doc.

Thank you.

- See grandma I saved him.

- You'll be
the best doctor ever.

- Can we play dolls now?

- Mm-hmm, go on and set
them up, I'll be right in.

- On my bed?
- Mm-hmm.

- Mama?
- Hmm?

- What do you mean
he used to be?

- Your Uncle Manny was
your Aunt Helen's guardian.

Oh he loved taking care of her.

He used to have little games,
just like you and Danita.

Good thing too
huh, cause I wanted

nothing to do with your tia.

I was so boy crazy.

Pendeja.

- Was that right
after your mom died?

- Yes, thank goodness
for your Uncle Manny.

He was only 16 years old then,
your age,

but it was as if he knew
what your Tia Lynn needed.

And he wasn't much into
fighting back them.

- Now that's hard to believe.
- It's true.

He was a really sensitive boy.

He would even help
our mother cook

when he saw that she was
really tired after work.

And he didn't even care that
our father would tease him.

- Mama, Manny really?

- Really.

- So what happened?

- This is a tough barrio,
mi hijo.

You know that.

And your Uncle Manny
would get beat up.

He'd come home with
tears in his eyes.

And then your
grandfather would beat

him up again for crying.

- What's the matter?

- I just get mad at myself
for not doing anything.

- He's drunk, he's still.

Forget about that.

So what happened with Manny?

What changed him?

- Your Uncle Manny,
mi hijo, was fast

and he would always run away.

One day your
grandfather caught him.

Manny was crunched
down on the floor.

And your abuelo punched
and punched and punched.

Your tio curled himself
up into a little ball

and covered himself
with his arms.

He never fought
back, and he just

punched and punched and punched.

Manny's arms got so bruised,

he couldn't
hold them up anymore.

And when they fell to
his side, he didn't stop.

His face, I'll never forget it.

I couldn't recognize him.

The stitches,
he looked like Frankenstein.

We're all going
to be alright, mi hijo.

Shh.

- Life is a game,
but there are rules.

Rules are supposed
to make the game fair.

Second place don't mean shit.

So that winning becomes
the only thing that matters.

Then life becomes about
bending and breaking the rules.

- Yeah.

- Hey, hey, back up.

- You lost the
battle, you keep this

shit up you're gonna
lose the war too.

- We can go right here right
now, puto.

Right the fuck now.

- Come on Smiley, what you got?

Come on.

- You only right 'cause
you got a badge, pussy.

- Best get to getting.

- Bye, Smiley.

- Thugs like that are only
dangerous amongst the pack.

All bark and no bite.

You ever seen or smelled
that scumbag before?

- Naw.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- The way he was
riding you all game,

I thought you guys
had some history.

- He's gonna be history, dude.

- Maybe he's just sweating
over our best player.

- Thanks, bro, but you
still got game, old man.

- Well, at least my
jimmy still works.

But you, bro,
you were born to play point.

- Not born, just taught
by a pretty cool coach.

- I'm telling you,
try out again.

So you took a year off,
they could use you at point.

- I'm not into
this shit anymore.

You know, I'm tired of people
telling me what to do.

All right?
- All right.

All right.

I'm sorry, you're right.
I'm gonna shut up.

I just like having
you back out here, bro.

It's good to have you back.

- Back home.
It feels good.

- Being part
of a team always does.

- Hey, Sarge!

- That's why these
chumps will be playing

for second place all day long.

- All right let's go, d-up,
d-up, you check him out.

Let's go, let's go.

- Hey school boy.
- Hey working girl.

- That's cold.

- Come on it's

- Just count me out coach.
- Better get going.

were such a stud.

Nice moves out there.

- You ain't seen nothing.
I'm better one on one.

- Come on, Juan.

- Are you gonna be
at the mall tonight?

- Better make it quick.

I have some other things
for a girl like me to do.

- Come on, youngster.
Let's go man.

Okay here we go.
Hold up! LAPD is in the house.

just playing you.

Come on, pick at the top
of the key.

You got that shot,

Alright, ball in. Ball in.
- Ball in.

- Can I give you a lift?
- Naw I'm all right.

- You kicked some ass, bro.

You didn't need us out there,
you don't need her either.

- Hey you're in line
to be the man.

- Young stud.

-Stay up, dawg.

- Bring us some donuts.

- I'll take a bran muffin.

- You sure I can't
give you a lift?

- Naw I'm alright,
I'll catch up later.

- Come on. Hurry up, puto. We
have a lot of catching up to do.

- Yeah homes I heard Rosa's
throwing a party, we should go.

- Man you and I both
know there's no way in hell

we're getting into that party.

- Maybe you two can't get
in but I know I can get in.

- This one wants to go all
the way to Rosa's house

to a party that we
may not even get into.

- You're a stupid ass fool.

- We're already have beers.
We just kick it

with the homies and

Oh shit.

What's up with this one?

All right.
It's Manny, man. It's my bad.

Homie, 911.

Bounce homey, my bad,

- Glad you answered
your phone, dawg.

- Yeah man.

- Look.

- Ya what's up. That mother fucker
just flaked out on us, dawg.

- Got him.

- You know what to do dawg, get
back to me later, all right.

- Fucking pigs.
- Relax.

Think about it,
if we smoke this little punk,

shit's gonna hit the fan homey.

Better to keep Manny in the
pocket, you know what I'm saying?

I got a plan, homey.

I got a plan.

Let's go.

- Perfect form,
two dribbles, one point.

I think I can take
credit for that.

- What are you doing here?

- I'm working.

What are you doing?

- Nothing.

- Reconsidering what I said
about joining the team?

- Yeah.
- Such enthusiasm.

- Naw really.

- You know it's not
such a bad thing,

not being able to lie well.

- I wasn't trying to.
- I know.

Girl troubles.

- Maybe.

- You remember when
I asked you if you knew

them bangers in the stands?

- Yeah.
- Well, they're Muertos.

Not from here.
Higher up like your uncle.

She's their property.

- What is it with you and Manny?

- There's some things in life
you can walk away from.

Not them.

- I'm tired of people
telling me what to do.

Advice, advice, advice, fuck it.

- You're right.

You're right, who am I
to tell you what to do?

Whether you like it or not,
you're gonna be a man.

And a man is responsible
for his choices.

It's your choice boy,
be a man or a slave.

Choose well.

- Whatevers man.

Be a man or be a slave.

Fuck.

- All right, don't even
trip, don't take it personal.

- What's this?

Okay cut, cut.

- Okay, let's take 10.

All right, and by 10
that means, you know, not 15.

Ah, Mr. Garcia.
- Call me Manny.

- Okay, Manny, listen you're
a bullshit guy, okay.

And so am I.

And so I feel like I would
be remiss if I didn't tell you

that your character needs
just like way more rage.

Because you're a fucking
street gang killer, right.

Right, okay, so the audience
needs to see his rage

to feel the fear, right.

Okay look, you're standing
toe to toe with your rival,

and you want to intimidate him,
so I need

your arms just flailing wildly.

Maybe some screaming,
maybe some finger poking,

maybe some chest thumping
if you've got it because

the audience can not
experience the fear of you if

you're just standing there
in some silent stare down.

Now I take this time
with you, only because

I think you've got
a lot of potential.

But trust me when I tell you
that if I'm not afraid of you,

the audience isn't gonna be.

- Barking dog's
a dead give away.

Why should I shove or
threaten some punk in my way?

If he disrespects me,
I'm gonna turn him inside out

by taking everything that's
important to him in his life.

Then I'm going to come for him.

And by that time,
he'll be begging me

to put him out of his misery.

Now that's real.
I'm not acting.

Now, get your camera,
get it up close,

and you let me do my stuff.

- Yeah, you're right,
you're the real deal.

That's why I hired you,
okay, okay.

But just do me a favor,
go back to your trailer

and think or rather rehearse
the scene as I said.

Okay just a minute, just
a minute, just a minute.

We're just doing a rehearsal
for the other guy

while the cameras are still
set this way

and I kinda wanna
see how he reacts.

- It's gonna look fake.

- No, no, no,
don't worry about that.

We're gonna reset the cameras
and we're gonna do it

exactly the way you
described it, okay.

So why don't you go off and
come back in 10 minutes.

And we'll shoot it.

Probably about six minutes
now but whatever okay.

Really mean, really
angry, really crazy.

- I guess you straightened
that fool, uncle.

- Yeah some days are
better than others.

- I want you to
reload the whole mag

and run the camera when I
say over the top rehearsal.

That was scary though right.

Too scary for TV, all right.

Juice, I want juice.

- Can't wait till you
straighten Angie out.

You got me off the shots, tio.

- Well she's right sometimes.

She's playing the odds, she's
right more than she's wrong.

- She's always making
noises how me and the homies

are taking a one way
trip to Loserville.

That's bullshit.

This bus, naw this limo
leads to Hollywood pussy.

Settle down homes.

It's a dog eat dog
world out there.

And without an education you
just howling at the moon.

And you know what happens
when the man gets tired

of hearing you howling.

He puts your ass to sleep.

Nasty little girl.

I'll be there,
don't get started without me.

- What you say about
howling at the moon?

You getting on that?
- Maybe.

- Come on, ese,
you got to learn to share.

- Just know, every woman
wants you to command them.

Weakness never tolerated.

- I get it, confidence.
- And perpetual motion.

Even a shark can't stop
swimming or it'll die.

Now Hollywood and the barrio,
they're different worlds,

but believe me,
they're both shark tanks.

- Me, Norman, and Jose been
doing some swimming, homes.

- What about your sister,
she dating anybody.

She never tells me shit
about what she's doing.

- She got some pretty high
standards, believe it or not.

- That's good.
She's smart.

And that scares dudes.

But she gotta stop
getting down on herself

about getting pregnant
with that white dude.

She's gonna end up
a bitter old woman

if she don't start
having some fun.

- Yeah but work is good.

- I know but I
wanna have some fun too.

- Fine ass coochie too.

- Manny.

Like what you done to the place.

- Wait outside.

Ain't no need for that,
we all family.

- Sure homes, it's about
time you got to know us.

- Go get me a soda.

And don't rush.

- I been missing you.

It ain't polite to leave
your family hanging.

- Sure smells like home, homes.

- Always count on
Manny for a laugh.

Even when the shit's
gone hit the fan.

- Or standing downwind.

- You're right, he's the
right man for the job.

- Yep.

- I know you're up there.

I know you're up there.

Pretty smart when you wanna be.

- Only half a point down.

- Add it up
from last year, Juan,

you've gone from
a B to a C student.

What's the matter?
- Nothing.

- If you don't talk to me,

how am I supposed
to help you out.

Can't you see you're
setting up your patterns.

They'll shape everything you do.

They'll shape your whole future.

- The future, the
future, the future!

Who cares!

If you ain't living now,
you ain't ever gone live!

- Sounds like something
your uncle would say.

- So what, what if he's right!

I ain't interesting in breaking
laws for the next 50 years,

watching all
the hot bitches go by.

Wondering where my life
went with a bunch of

- It's funny,
he shows up a year ago

fresh out of prison,
your grades fall,

you're nowhere to be found.

What's he trying to
do, mentor his protege?

- Bullshit!
You don't know nothing, girl.

All he ever says is don't
do the mistake he did.

He told me to listen to you.

- I can see you're
really listening.

- You're just like
everyone else.

You only know what
you think you see.

- You're young.

I'm just trying to help you out.

- Help me, you don't know me.

You just want me to be like you.

- You're a boy, about
to become a man.

You see you're
uncle, he's a man.

I know he's a type of role
model me and mama could never be

and I know he means well.

But he can't help who he is.

I just don't want his lifestyle
to start rubbing off on you.

And I know you think it
can't happen, but it can.

I'm sorry but until
your grades shape up,

you can't hang out with
Manny on the set anymore.

- What!

- You can chill with
Manny as long as

it's in the right atmosphere.

- Like here?
- Yes.

- What's wrong with me
kicking it at work with him?

- Hollywood is all about money.

They glorify criminals,
violence, sex, and drugs.

They totally misrepresent
our people to be some

uneducated gang banging peasants,
mojados, so on and so on.

Other than prison,
that's the last positive place

to find a role model.

Okay fellas, don't
forget to tip your girls.

Next up, we got Nightingale.

- Record time, homes.

You better not have any enemies

because you're becoming
predictable.

- I used to think
you were funny.

But that was a long time ago.

- Maybe you need a drink.

- I still ain't laughing.

- I'm not joking.

I'll have another.

Call it a condemned
man's last pop

at the nostalgic place
where he become a man.

Salud.

- Where you took your first step

and a 1000 more that could lead
you to only one destination.

Where you arrived.

- Judge not, lest he be judged.

- We had an understanding.

What the matter,
cat got your tongue?

- Only a dreamer would
expect a blind hunting dog

to stop barking or drooling.

- I see everything, punk.

And even a blind dog can smell
shit in his own backyard.

It's just you and me, but you
still better think hard.

What does the script say,
Hollywood?

Or you can't recall?

- You better pay attention
to your cop videos.

Mr. Hollywood's got
his big closeup mañana.

And I don't need no tear
tracks crying over hurting you.

-Shhhh.

- How long have
they been asleep?

- I don't know they started
watching the movie around 8:00.

Mijita it's just his pride.

- Mr. Night owl goes to bed at
8:00, three nights in a row.

It's more than that.

I just don't want
him to hate me.

- He just wants to be a man.
- I want him to be a man too.

I feel like I'm doing
the complete opposite.

- Shh.

- I'm just tired, Ama.

- I know, I know mijita.

And I'm so proud of you.

- Thanks, Ama.
With work and school.

- You're a good
example for Juanito.

- I hope so.

- Why don't I put this away
and you go get some rest.

- No, I have to start
on the sauce tonight.

Can you put Diana to bed.

- No one knows
what the future will bring.

But we can all see our past.

With all it's joys and
sorrows, triumphs and defeats.

One thing shines bright, family.

When you betray those you love,

you go against the law of blood.

- So how are your grades?

- Dessert?
- Yeah!

- Yes, mijita,
that would be nice.

- Yeah sure.

- So what did your
mama make for us?

- It's a surprise.

- It's a surprise.
- Good I like surprises.

Ohhhh!

- Wow.

Ooh!

- Oh I'm sorry.
- Thanks a lot.

- You know I'm
sorry for laughing.

- You ought to be ashamed
of yourself Manny.

- It's a natural reaction.

- She's been cooking
all day pobrecita..

- I'm sorry she's upset
but you know what,

I'm not ashamed.

- You don't have
to defend me, Ama.

- Since when was
I attacking you.

- Was it that funny?

- You know what, in case
you haven't noticed,

the air is so thick in here
you can cut it with a knife.

Is it just me or are you
always this pissed off?

- Just because I
don't smile or laugh

doesn't mean I'm pissed off.

- I didn't even come here to
eat.

- Then why did you come?
- To hang with Juan.

Your rules remember.

Manny...

- Let's just clean up, Grandma.

- Let's clean up.
Come on, baby.

- Can't you get over
yourself for one second

and see what I'm trying to do.

- You know what, go back inside.

- No.
We need to talk.

- Then you better
stop disrespecting me.

- You can't solve the world's
problems with your fist.

- Can't you see I want
what's best for him.

I can teach him things.

- About what.
- About laughing, for one.

- Life's a big joke, huh?

The bottom line is Juan's
grades are suffering.

- And that's my fault?
- Yes it is.

Listen to me.

- No, you think I want
him to be like me?

I wouldn't wish
my life on anyone.

But I didn't have a choice.
- Bullshit.

We all have choices.

- That's easy for you to say.

You're smart, you're beautiful.

- You're smart too.
- Not in books.

- You can't keep
making excuses, tio.

- I'm not.
- Yes you are.

You always are.
- You can't ask for respect.

You have to earn it.

In your world,
you can use your brains.

Here you need your fists.

- Is that the world
you want for Juan?

- Look around, I
didn't ask for this.

- Precisely my point, if we
don't change it then who will?

- What do you want from me?

- Juan needs to see that there's
other ways besides violence.

- You know what, you're a woman.

You don't understand what
it means to be a man.

We're competitive, we compete.

Whether it's with
money or fists.

It's gonna be a long time
before we can compete

in a white man's money world.

- And so you cop out
for the quick route?

Put your fist in the
white man's mouth

for your precious respect.

Is that worth the price?
Jail.

- A coward dies
a thousand deaths.

Ask Veritas,
we had two ways out.

You could either be
a cop or a criminal.

And believe me, my way was hard.

Don't worry Mijita, I'm gone.

- On my street,
when you turn the other cheek

all you got was
a matching black eye.

Violence was everywhere
in my barrio.

And when I got home
and turned on the TV,

it was more of the same.

Get your ass kicked enough,

you do whatever you have to,
to make it stop.

But it isn't until you join,

you learn your choice affects
all those around you.

Losing those you love,
hurts a thousand times more

than any ass whipping.

And you'll sacrifice
anything to make it right.

- Hey!

Come on back, putos.

- Hey, wasn't that
Norman and Jose?

I thought they
were your partners.

Hey, if this fight's
about coochie,

there's plenty
to go around homes.

Come on look at me
when I talk to you.

- They say you a rat,

they say you dropped a dime
on the homie.

No way right?

- It all depends
on who you asking.

From where I standing,
all I did was tell

a couple of Hollywood producers,
about my life.

And not so much for the coin,

but to let people know
how shit happens.

- The stuff in the movie true?

Shot callers in the joint,
they think I sold out.

They say I let the man
know about our operation.

I didn't mention no names,
give no details.

They think I broke the rules.

But see they make the rules
to suit themselves.

Just like it is out here.

Whoever's in charge,
makes the rules.

- What's gonna happen?

- To me shit, nothing.

Anything they throw
at your tio, I can handle.

You did this for me huh?

You know what I'm
proud of you today

but I still don't want
you to be like me.

You got to make a better
life for yourself.

You know what,
I'm a' owe you a shirt.

Oh man, Juanillo.

Now they own
a piece of you, homes.

- We are all hungry
for a life we can't afford.

It's a line from a song,

but it has nothing
to do with money

or whether you're rich or poor.

- Yo, brother.
- 'Sup, man. How's it going?

- You're looking at a man
that's been in the desert

a long time looking
for a drink of water.

- Man I'm telling you,
it's good to see you again.

- Is this the bomb?
- It's even better.

- Cool man, I'm going
to be hitting you up often

so be ready, buddy.

- Just watch TV,
life is so exciting.

Life is like Disneyland,

until you turn your TV off.

- Pop the trunk.

Get out of the car!

Here, mail this over there.
- That's a pretty nice jacket.

- Shut up! Mail this
over there.

♪ The life chose me

♪ No cameras ♪

- Let's go! Burn up!

Get the fuck out!
Come on!

- If Manny could
testify, I could get him off.

- I don't understand,
Manny's dead.

- No prior knowledge,
means no conspiracy

in the commission
of the robbery.

- I don't get it.

- People versus Michelle Jordan.

Now Michelle,
she's driving her boyfriend

and a couple of
his friends around.

The boy friend tells
her that they're hungry.

Why don't you pull up
to this local restaurant,

we're going to get
something to eat.

Keep the car running,
we're going to get it to go.

Well they go in,
they proceed to rob the place.

They come running out
and they dive in the car.

The boyfriend tells
her to punch it.

He's the person in authority,
physically dominant

so she listens.

- You think that was
a part of Manny's plan?

- I do know that
Manny's gang the Muertos

had it our for him.

Manny's just a decoy
and drawing the heat

so his partner can sneak
out the back with the cash.

- But why would he put
Juan in that situation?

- Manny was a loose cannon.

Didn't think he'd make it
to 30, let alone 40 or 50.

How do you control that?

You go after what he
loves more than himself.

It's no secret.

That's how the lifers in the
joint control the streets.

- Sergeant Veritas,
he knows all about the Muertos.

When he was just a kid, he lived

right across the street
from Manny.

I think Manny even dated
his mom or something.

I should have known.

They're from the
same neighborhood.

Look this could be good news.

I got to get going,

why don't I walk you
to your car?

- Thanks for coming
out here to meet me.

Like I said, not a problem.

I was in the neighborhood
to meet another client anyway.

- Al, we're approaching
the gates of Heaven.

I need a yes or a no
because our offer

is withdrawn at the door.

- For my client, your offer is

a highway to hell,
devoid of compassion.

- Compassion, it would be
mercy for it's own sake

to reduce this offer
because the facts

are gonna wipe your boy out.

Al, you know
I don't want to do that.

- What's the difference
between five and 10 years.

In six months he'll
no longer be a boy

but the product of
society's ignorance.

- I've always admired
your idealism,

but your vision is myopic
or at least clouded

by your desire to help this kid.

Al, this case is solid as stone.

- You know as well as I do,
if we strike the motion

to compel gang evidence,
your solid-stone case

will sink into the
swamp it was built on.

- I know you hate when
I speak like a telegram reads,

but, A, your client was
at the wheel speeding

from the scene with his uncle
who is clearly identified

brandishing his AK in
the bank only moments prior.

B, dead uncle, co-conspirator,
the only person

who can corroborate your
client's story is long time

ortho shot caller.

C, clients claim of ignorance
lacks credibility

due to uncle's strapping
up with numerous fire arms

while still in
client's presence.

D, client's motive,
likely financial opportunity

at that crime scene is
a payroll depository

on that last day of every month.

- You got a future as
a computer generated

automated customer service recorder
if you decide to go that way.

A, the prelim generated
more questions than answers.

B, the second perp is still
at large with all the cash.

C, your IO is just
mailing this one in.

And D, you are scared
shitless I'll pull a rabbit

out of my house and put you
in the DA doghouse

when you choke on your
open and shut case.

- We could have a problem.

It would be helpful if
Veritas were present.

- Judge Morris is scheduled
to be back in court

in about 10 minutes.

- Do you really want
that post in Malibu?

- Good afternoon everyone.

Defense council I believe
now moves to suppress

evidence of the defendants
gang affiliation

from the people's case in chief.

My tentative is to allow the
jury to hear said evidence.

Code 402 requires this
court to articulate

the basis for it's ruling.

For the record,
Sergeant Veritas' unrebutted

testimony at the prelim
provides sufficient basis

to allow said
evidence to be heard.

People?

- Your Honor, the people wish
to reiterate the severity

of the felony charges
levied against Mr. Garcia,

in congruence to the $4 million
payroll still unrecovered.

We also wish the court
to take into consideration,

Mr. Garcia's reluctance

to facilitate
any information toward

the apprehension of the second
perpetrator in the robbery.

We cite Sergeant
Veritas' testimony

as to the code of silence
instituted in the gang

initiation rituals practiced
by the Fifth Street Muertos.

- Is there anything else?

- Where is Veritas?
- I don't know.

- I've asked you four times.

This is your job to deliver.

- Submit, Your Honor.

- Mr. Hartford, I imagine
you'd like to be heard.

- I do Your Honor.

To start I'd like to complement
the voice of the people

for his eloquent reiteration
of said speculative evidence.

I know I can't, nor would
I dare speak for His Honor,

but I now feel newly refreshed.

And to dare again
feel justified of said

speculative evidence,
should ever,

if they were to begin with
be taking for granted.

- Proceed.

- Your Honor, I'll hang
my hat on the P test.

Will gang evidence be more
prejudicial than probative?

If the jury hears gang once,
it will echo throughout

this trial at the expense of
any other relevant evidence.

Very prejudicial,
yet not remotely probative

of his guilt or innocence.

They're hear gang,
they'll see Hispanic,

he'll be guilty until
proven innocent.

- Well counsel I imagine
your defense will be

wrong place, wrong time.

Your client was fleeing
the scene of a bank robbery

with a convicted
felon gang leader.

But that seems probative
of guilt or innocence to me.

- Your Honor, our neighborhoods,
our experiences, shape us.

Juan thought his Uncle
Manny had been caught

in the bank parking
lot by some rivals

from the old days
and so he punched it.

- Counsel, the court's
rationality would be to concur

with the gang expert's
conclusion that the boy

grew up without a father
figure in his life

and looked up to his
uncle in blind faith.

- Your Honor, Sergeant
Veritas, can also opine

to great extent about
the fact that Manny

had actually distanced
himself from the Muertos

to pursue an acting career
since his release from Cochran.

He was a respected actor
in the Hollywood community.

Everybody in the neighborhood
knew it,

he was successful,
why would he steer his nephew

toward something he was
trying to get away from?

- Your client was steering
the get away car after a robbery.

Now if you have evidence
of this change of heart,

then you'll be able to bring it

to the attention of
the jury all you like.

- Your honor, that's
what I intend to do.

However, if the jury is
allowed to be pigeon holed

into the narrow minded
perspective that our

media describes
of the gang life,

my client will be
seen as a gun slinging

character in a movie script,
rather than

the confused
teenager that he is.

- Counsel, your client
has a single tattoo

that aligns him with
the same gang that his uncle

was not only
participating in, but led.

- That tattoo was
only one-day old

when this robbery occurred.

Besides Juan only had
the base gravestone

of the tattoo without
the Muerto insignia.

And without the insignia,
a perspective initiate

cannot earn any stripes,
i.e., the rising ghosts.

- Sergeant Veritas testified
that wannabe gang members

commit serious crimes in
order to create gang status.

- Sergeant Veritas can
also testify to the fact

that without being jumped
in and without the insignia

one cannot participate
in any high-level crimes.

- We have FI cards that
state that your client

was affiliated
with the same gang.

- Your Honor what would
happen if say a pre-teen kid,

11 or 12 years old
were to deny allegiance

to the Muertos in
front of his friends

from the same neighborhood.

The code of this neighborhood
is not based upon

the honor of the intellect
but that of the bicep.

Your Honor in our world,
power is intellectual,

financial strength.
In theirs, it's physical.

- Your precepts are more
sociologic than legal.

However, I disagree in regards
to your assumptions that

financial desire preclude
those of less financial means.

- A big distinction
between financial desires

and outright robbery of
a bank don't you think?

- Mr. Hartford,
let me reiterate,

Sergeant Veritas' testimony
with regard to bank robbery

being an off used method of
financing gang activities.

- If easy money is
exclusively a gang objective,

there's a pack of
optimistic gorgeous girls

wearing short skirts
and false smiles

over at the Polo Lounge
that Sergeant Veritas

and his anti-gang unit
could be rousting right now.

- Mr. Hartford, defense
motion to suppress is denied.

We are not here
for the philosophical debate

of the nature of
human perception.

- Sure we are.
Prejudice is a perception.

Put a blue bandana on
a black man in Compton

and he's a Crip.
Red a Blood.

- Council.
- Put a turban on an Arab and he's a terrorist.

- Council.

The defensive motion
to suppress is denied.

I've made my ruling.

Now if the jury decides
that this young man

made his bed, it is only
fair that he be made

to lie in it
for a good long time.

If not, then he'll walk.

Now that's the system.

- They don't care
if I did it or not.

They can't find
the guy that did it.

They're gonna fry me.

- It's not that simple, Juan.
- It is that simple.

Manny was right, these gringos
make up the rules as they go.

- Gringos?
- Yeah Gringos.

They're afraid of us,
they gotta keep us down.

- The system drops a
hammer on us night and day

and everyone of you joked
up muscle head vatos

are preparing to endure
it rather than beat it.

Be a bad ass, for what,
to call the shots in the joint?

Man, if Manny developed his
mind along with his body,

maybe he could
have avoided jail.

Proved to us that it
could have been done.

- Oh yeah, then what your
college degree get you.

Working 24/7 for shit.

You're going to wait your
whole life waiting for

those Gringos to see you
as an equal.

The only way they want
to see you

is you bending over
the water cooler.

I don't understand
you, defending them

especially that white dude,
that get you pregnant.

A real man huh?

- Are you through?

- You don't know the rules
of their skyscraper world.

So you gotta fake it, at least
I know the rules of mi barrio.

- Oh you know them all huh?

Say you get convicted
of this bullshit?

Certified badass right?

- Damn straight.

- First week out some punk
challenges your rep, what now?

- Easy fuck that nigga up
for everyone to see.

The rules of the street.

- They'll rat on you.
You know they will.

Aggravated assault, battery,

second strike
for Mr. Badass.

Double the base sentence,
eight years, state prison.

Doubled equals 16, Juan.

You serve a mandatory 85%

even if you shine
the warden's shoes.

California penal code punishes
the rules of the street.

If you ever get out...
ever,

you best not spit
on the sidewalk

or pop a beer can on the corner.

Otherwise, strike three...

you're out.

Life.

- On the street, man to man,

you can talk all you want.

It doesn't matter what you say,

it's what you do.

But in the skyscraper world,

you have to deal with structure,

organization, made up of ideas.

Ideas are built on words.

So what you say you did,

becomes as important
as what you did.

- Getting that check by
the middle of next week,

so I'll have Ducketts discover
the rest of the back rent.

- I'm gonna need
somebody competent

to make a few more appearances.

I can always call
the lackey but I'd rather send

someone that knows what
the hell they're doing.

You still working out
of the back of your car?

- For the record, business
materials occupy the front seat.

My pillow, blanket,
and girly mags are back.

Is that what you think?
- You know what I think.

I think you're
an underrated talent.

- To personal injury...

I mean civil rights.

- And to criminal law,
for which we both know

there's no money in

unless you represent
a successful criminal.

- If they're successful,
they don't need a lawyer.

- That's right.

- You know,
for well over 20 years

I've been representing
primarily Latinos.

You'd think by know
I should know 'em.

They'd just as soon
cut off their arm,

than sacrifice their pride.

- Is this the gang expert
you were telling me about.

- Yeah, Veritas.

Sergeant Veritas is like
10, 11, 12 years old

when my client's Uncle Manny,
takes Sergeant Veritas' mom

Eva Veritas to a
Fifth Street Muertos party.

Where she gets
whacked in a drive-by.

- Veritas, the truth.

- If only, his
truth was ours too.

I mean...

I respect him, I do,

but this kid's life
hangs in the balance

of just a few compassionate
words or omissions,

a few less expert conclusions,
anything.

- Al the prison are filled
with guys who are not guilty.

- You ever think about
all the borderline shit

we used to pull when
we where his age?

We'd be where he is
right now if we didn't

grow up in such a
forgiving neighborhood.

- It's not that easy, if it was
we could redline by zip code.

- In essence,
isn't that what we do?

I mean a loaded gun in
this neighborhood is simply

a mistake of youth,
but the same loaded gun

in this neighborhood
will get you 15 to life.

- Okay so the kid
gets out what happens?

He goes right back
to the same neighborhood.

Right back to the same shit.
And where are you?

Right back where you
started from. Wake up!

I'm sorry.

- You ever wonder why
the first thing

that they send you
after you pass the bar

is all those drug
and rehab pamphlets?

- Are you all right?

- I mean this kid.

- You're not.

You're just hard on yourself.

You've always been.

Let me ask you something.

The pyramid, which is the
most important brick?

Just bear with me for a minute.

Which is the most important
brick on a pyramid?

The top or the bottom?

Neither?

The top brick gets
all the glory,

but the bottom brick,
that's the structure...

the strength.

You take that away and
the pyramid collapses.

That's the law.

- Mommy I missed you.

Juliana said you
would be home soon.

- She did gorgeous.

Silent Bunny wasn't so sure.

- Sounds like Silent Bunny
spent to much time in the Sun.

Let mommy change and
then we can play okay.

- When's Juan coming home?

- I want you to grow up slowly,

if you worry too much you'll miss
all the fun out of being a kid.

I only tell you grown up
things when it's necessary

because sometimes it's
not that much fun.

- Is Juan lost?

- No.

Some people who don't know
your uncle think

he did something wrong
but know he didn't.

They'll know pretty soon too.

- I can save him,
I can give him medicine.

- You could if he was sick
mijita but he's not sick.

He's in trouble with
the law so we have a lawyer.

- Is that a law doctor?
- Yeah, you're so smart.

- If I have the dream that
that law doctor saves him,

it always comes true.

- Let mommy change and
then I'll read you a story.

- I wanna go to bed now.

- It's only 7:30.
Are you as tired as I am?

- No, but I want to hurry up
and have my dream

so I could tell you.

- Faster! Faster!

Go right.
Go right here!

- What happened?
What you do?

- Never mind just
a little further.

- Please, please, what happened?

- Trust me everything's
gonna be okay.

You don't know nothing.
All right?

Turn left.

- I don't know what?
I don't understand.

- That's the plan,
I'll do all the explaining,

you just tell the truth.

- Why, tell them what?
Why?

- I did it because I had to.

- For who?
- Just shut up.

I did this for you.

- What an interesting
young lady.

- You look like
you're right at home.

- I feel old enough
to be in a home.

- Speaking of arresting,
I'm guessing

you're not here for the show.

- Your neighborhood.

- Was, I'm trying
to keep it that way.

Quick to judge aren't we,
attorney Burney?

- Well it seems the "Ba-da-bing"
is to Tony Soprano

the "coochie coo"
is to Sergeant Veritas.

She should be proud.

- We're not here
to discuss my motivations.

Ain't I can't enlighten every
sarcastic Ivy League punk.

- I'm not being sarcastic.

'Cause I truly admire
the position you've carved out.

I could use some enlightenment

or at least
illumination from you,

as to what values
you employ in judging

what is the appropriate
behavior in your neighborhood.

- I like your style, counselor.

But you and I, we both
know that won't mean shit

when I up in the stand.

Now let's cut to the chase.

Fact, initiates need
to prove their salt

to move up in the ranks.

Fact, the Muertos
are the leading gang

when it comes to bank robberies.

- You know Juan, personally.

- I'm the gang expert,
not the character witness.

You wanna know
a person's character,

you look in their home.

- So one bad apple
spoils the whole bunch.

Angie, their mom,
they don't count?

- They're women.

- Yeah I know.

- Let me spell out
the facts when it comes to kids,

and you could talk all you want

but it's what they
see that counts.

Now they may not
know what it is,

but they can see
racial classism.

He's a boy, he wants the cars,

the money, the pussy.

- How did you make it?

- Just lucky I guess.

- I disagree.

I'd say you're one
of the exceptional ones.

- I'm just your average Joe.

- My opinion,
in this neighborhood,

guys like you and Manny
are a cut above.

- Don't ever mention
my name and his

in the same sentence.

- You don't think you're
letting your grudge with Manny

cloud your vision?

You guys hung out, you're
from the same neighborhood.

Two nights before
Manny hits the bank,

he breaks an age-old truce and
trespasses here in your back yard.

You think that
was a coincidence?

- Fact,

it wasn't the first time
Manny was on the other side

of the teller's window
with all the money.

Fact, Manny has always
been about himself.

Fact, the Muertos
are the leading gang

when it comes to bank robberies.

Number one.

- Fact, you can't
just quit the Muertos.

Fact, Manny waits a full
two minutes in the bank

after the second perp
leaves with all the cash.

Fact, the supposed
wheel man Juan...

- Come on!

- Doesn't even have
a driver's license.

I'm just asking you
to consider those aspects

of a boy's character
to make him a victim

of his neighborhood.

- My job is not to judge.

Bye, counselor.

Don't let them titties
hit you on the way out.

- I don't understand.
- I did this for you.

- Manny.
Manny.

Manny!

Manny.

- Clear gate.

- Gate opening.

- We're all equal
in the eyes of the law.

That's why the women who hold

the scales of justice
is blindfolded.

Not a convincing argument,
when you're talking

from one side
of the city to the other.

What would your
future look like,

if after your first strike,

they sent you to a graduate
school for criminals.

- All right, foo'.
- Okay.

- We assume
that the law is fair.

We assume that prisons
are for criminals.

We assume that bankers
agree, lawyers are sharks.

That the old guy
in the Maserati is rich,

or that the blond
bombshell sitting

next to him
is a bimbo gold digger.

We assume a lot of things.

What you see isn't all their is.

And what you assume,
hardly ever is.

In the end,
things become clearer.

In the end, things make sense.

Open your mind, open your heart,

love your neighbor

as you love yourself.
