Previously on The Family Business.

I'll find Alejandro the puto myself.

Rio, I'm gonna need a favor.

I need you to watch my clubs for me.

It was nice meeting you. Yeah, you too.

Can we make a deal?

Yes, I believe we can, Mr. Carr. Our compound is five times more potent and

times more addictive than heat. I call it fire.

We'll get the message.

We know you like it.

because she's stubborn.

Hold on, hold on, hold on. Let me play this.

Oh, hell no! Get out!

No, yo, stop all that heating and this yelling. Why you ain't at work anyway?

Because your thieving ass stole my purse and my keys and I gave you my shit.

Damn, I'm bad.

I almost lost my job messing with you, man.

My name is Xavier.

You ain't like that job no way. Here.

That's not the point.

What's this?

I need you to go down to the bank and take six grand out that account.

PIN number 0707. You want to write this down?

My name is on this.

That's the reason I need you to go down to the bank and pick the money up. Come

on. No. I ain't going nowhere.

Come on, Charmaine. You know I need that money.

We both do.

We?

Who is we?

I don't speak French, so we obviously is you and me.

Look, sis, if you go and get this money, give me five grand and you could keep a

thousand. You're serious?

On Mama Grave.

Fine, I'll be back.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Unlock this. I gotta look something up.

You're looking at my password.

Neither. Nobody wants to see your nasty ass naked.

Nobody do.

Damn.

It looked like a tornado ran through this motherfucker.

What happened?

He happened.

Wayne Curtis did this?

Yeah. You know, the only reason I didn't call the cops is because... I know,

yeah.

I'm sorry.

You know, I got you.

Oh, my, no, honey, you know this is not going to cover it all.

Especially with my lost revenue.

Just let me know the balance, all right?

Okay.

Can you give us a second?

Sure, Pete.

Thanks.

So, I pick you up tomorrow.

What the fuck are you doing?

Where?

Well, man, ain't nothing. I'm just gonna cook for you tomorrow.

Now, you know that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about you

here and starting a fucking brawl.

Man, I was just in the neighborhood.

Came through, got something to drink.

You think I'm here trying to get some ass?

Nah, man.

I mean, that's your thing, not mine.

Yeah, whatever the fuck ever.

Listen, that's not what this is about.

This is about me coming up here, cleaning up, and handling your mess.

Look, man, ain't nobody got to handle shit for me.

I handle my own shit.

Oh, really? Yeah.

Then why did they call me?

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

Production has gone very well.

Look at that.

This time next week, we will be ready for distribution.

I had a schedule, may I add.

Well, I guess we have our Jewish friend in New York to thank for that, don't we?

Well, I wouldn't say all that.

He was instrumental in getting us what we needed.

Let's just hope he continues. He will.

Trust me.

We'll have no problem whatsoever from Bernie. The man loves money too much.

Which reminds me.

Randy's for you.

What's this?

This is a token of our appreciation for all of your hard work.

I don't understand.

It's an account number for a numbered brokerage account with $100 ,000 in

for Cora International stock and transfer.

I don't know what to say. Well, you've been very valuable to this endeavor,

Doctor, and we wanted to show you.

And there will be more deposits added to that account as this project grows.

Oh, thank you.

Don't thank us. You just keep your eyes on the prize.

And I don't mean my son.

How about we go out for dinner and dancing to celebrate?

I know a quaint place by the water that serves the best seafood.

I would love that.

Yeah? Mm -hmm.

Yes, my boy.

You do know that once she's used up her usefulness, it's going to break her

heart.

I almost feel sorry for her.

Liar.

You know what he's capable of.

You taught him.

Yeah,

I did, didn't I? Yeah, you did.

Well, now that you have your drug, how are you going to distribute it

without involving Corvus International?

Well, how did Jesus distribute the Gospels?

He sent out his apostles to spread the word.

You get it?

Yeah, I got it. All right, daughter.

Way to go.

Hey, let's go get this G -Rod real quick. Charlie, there was $80 ,000 left

that account.

And?

And my name is on it.

Yeah? Best not be touching it.

Well, why not? I mean, my name is on the account. I should be able to just go in

there and get whatever I need. I mean... You want to know why?

Why?

Because I would hate to have to go and murk my little sister over some

yo. That's why.

Now I'm going to be needing that debit card.

Thank you, little sis.

I don't know. That was a wise choice.

Now you can take a little trip, son.

Toward a subway system or something.

Feel what I'm saying?

You're short $200, Charlie.

Yeah? Well, I'm going to fax you the rent.

He's talking about short.

I'm going to pay you every time you're trying to get somewhere. I hope you're

asking.

None of this shit had to happen.

All you had to do was what Pop paid you for, which was find X.

Or do I need to handle that too?

Because if you didn't do that, then your cops wouldn't have hired me.

What's that, beautiful?

Tell me something good.

How much is finding Charlie worth to you?

Is it worth ten grand?

I mean, yeah. I can make that happen.

Okay, cool.

Because he just left.

He just left?

Maybe one. King Grant, you got to do better than that.

You know where he went?

I mean, no, not exactly, but he did say something about going to buy a car.

Interesting.

But that shit ain't worth it. King Grant.

No, but he'll be back.

I mean, I can promise you that.

So, um, why don't you just come over here and bring some of that good dick

We can talk about it.

All right.

I'll see you in a few.

You don't want to do this, though.

And I want to embarrass you in front of your boys.

So get the fuck out the way, man.

I promise you, cuz, from the bottom of my heart, this ain't over.

But I am going to respect Kim in a place of business unlike you.

Whatever, man.

Look, man, let me go find out what brother X's sister got to say.

You do that.

It's not fancy.

But I guarantee this is the best all -beef hot dog in the city.

Hands down.

Why are you always feeding me?

Because I care.

You do.

I do.

I really do.

I missed you.

You too.

I'm sorry that we haven't been able to get together sooner.

Brother minister out of town.

You say less, but I get it.

I'm just happy you're safe.

Of course. I wouldn't have been.

Brother X is back in New York.

You sure?

Positive.

He found the delivery truck that he sold in Alabama, along with the driver's

body.

Okay.

Okay. I appreciate you for telling me.

Look, your protection is my priority.

He will not harm my hair on your head.

It's not my safety or well -being I'm concerned about.

It's yours.

Why would you be worried about me?

Elijah, Xavier thought of you like a son.

He probably hates you worse than he does the Duncans.

Because you kept me alive.

So be it.

There comes a time when... Every man's life, when he has to show his father

a man.

What's up?

What's up, New Vegas?

I heard you was back from Mexico.

How was it?

It was fun. I'm thinking of going back there for the summer next year.

Did you hook up with any of those señoritas?

I got a couple of numbers, and you know me.

Yeah, well, keep your options open, huh?

That's good.

So listen, you busy?

I mean, I got to hook up with a friend to play video games later.

Besides that, I'm good.

Cool. So back to the reason why I'm here.

Look, can you put a temporary hold on the bank account for me so the account

holder has to come into the branch?

I mean, I can do that, but I'm not supposed to be hacking anymore.

Grandpa would kill me if he found out about me. I'm on Little Vegas.

It ain't like I'm asking you to breach the firewall of a federal agency or

nothing like that.

I'm just asking you to freeze the account temporarily.

That's it.

You want this Brother X dude to be caught, right?

I mean, of course I do. All right, then.

Look, you do this, and me catching Brother X is in the bag.

All right.

You have to promise me you're not going to tell anyone I did this. I promise,

man. You got my word.

Yo, what y 'all doing?

We ain't doing nothing, you know.

Little Vegas was just showing me a new video game this month. That's it.

Shouldn't you be out looking for somebody, Curtis?

As far as I know, X ain't hiding in Nevada's computer. He's out there in

streets.

Man, let me worry about Brother X, all right?

And take your ass down to the Hellfire Club.

I heard they running a two -for -one special.

You like playing games.

Well, I'm going to play a game myself, and it's called I Forgot to Pay You.

Look, Nevada, you still want me to take you driving later?

Sure, if you're not busy like last time.

I'm sorry about that.

I'll be here, all right?

Cool.

The account holder has to walk into a branch if they're going to obtain any

funds.

Sweet.

Hey, who's the, uh, A -smart gamer chick?

Huh?

And why she want to know where you at?

She's just a friend I play video games with online.

She's cool.

I see your MO in Las Vegas.

You think you slick.

I see what you're doing.

Look. Thanks for doing that for me, all right?

And, uh, good luck with your good.

Hey, smart game machine.

Is everything okay?

Hey, I'm here.

Sorry I'm late, but you ready?

Savior?

I would have thought you'd be smart enough to stay out of town.

Yeah, well, I had a law on finished business, feel me?

Yeah.

This shall come in handy, inshallah.

How did you find me?

See, you love these things so much, I knew you'd come through sooner or later

get one.

I just never thought you'd come through with a dunking.

Muslim, you pussy what?

I thought I taught you better than that.

You taught me a lot of things, Xavier.

And much of it good.

But unfortunately, some of those lessons weren't righteous.

Common sense should have told me, but I was blinded by your teachings.

No, no, no, no, Elijah.

I groomed you as a son.

You deserted me when I needed you most. When the Brotherhood needed you the

most. No.

What the Brotherhood needed, what I needed, was a leader.

A leader.

Not some radical lunatic bent on personal vengeance.

Do you think I'm crazy, Elijah?

I don't want to acknowledge that, Xavier.

But with 76 of our brothers dead, you haven't left me much choice.

Well, how about if I take you out your misery, traitor, and make you number 77?

If you were going to kill me, you would have done it the moment you got into

this car.

You really think you know me, don't you?

Once upon a time.

But not anymore.

Well, you know, with or without your help, I'm going to kill all those

Including that little half of you, it's just wit.

You can try.

But without the Brotherhood, this war you're waging against the Duncans is

You're outgunned and outmanned. Ain't nothing over till I say it's over,

motherfucker.

Matter of fact, I could show you better than I could tell you, Shaq.

Loyalty is no expiration date.

Word is born.

The hunt is on, you little bitch.

I want to thank you for that finder's fee.

It's been a long time since we did business.

Five years to be exact.

I was brokering that Black Tower heroin from Afghanistan at the time. I remember

that. That shit was good. Oh, yes, it was and is, but more importantly than

that, we both made a lot of money.

I'd like for us both to make a lot of money again, together, this time on a

grander scale.

That sounds good to me.

What are you proposing? I'm bringing a new product to market.

We call it fire.

You talking about heat?

That isn't new.

If I want heat, I'll go straight to the source.

No, no, no, no, no, no. What I'm offering is far better than heat.

How so?

The effects.

Man, what I'm offering the effects are far more powerful and way more

And I shouldn't have to tell a man like you how important it is to have

motivated repeat customers, and I should have.

That definitely sounds good.

Have you spoke to Marco Cruz?

His relationship with the donkeys might prove to be a problem.

I wouldn't worry about Senor Marco Cruz.

From what I hear, he has enough to worry about.

All that you're saying is true.

Why are you coming at me?

Your people are more than capable.

Perhaps, but I run too many legitimate businesses here in Europe.

I don't want any of my people involved, especially in the United States.

So that's where I come in. Uh -huh.

I want you to be our West Coast distributor.

I see.

Got one more question.

Yeah, what's that?

When do we get started?

Right away.

We'll find that one.

Nice shot, huh?

Well, hello there.

Seems like I have not talked to you in forever, let alone see you.

Honey, how are you? I miss you.

I miss you too, Mom.

How was Mexico?

Oh, my God. It was so nice.

No one parties like Senor Marco Cruz.

Oh, my God.

The sangria was to die for. Oh, my God.

Nevada had a great time. It was wonderful.

I'm jealous.

Now, I know I should have gone.

And that leads me to my next question.

Honey, when are you coming home? I didn't realize that you were going to be

for so long.

Honestly, I don't know.

I didn't think I'd be here this long, but Sebastian's bookkeeping is a hot

mess. Honey, I know that you want to help out a friend, but I'm worried about

you. Mom, I'm fine.

I'm going to make it in time for the wedding. I promise.

Mom, let me call you back.

Uh, why are you rushing me off the phone?

Everything all right?

I'm fine. Someone just walked in. Let me call you back. Love you.

That is sweet.

Your mama raised you right.

You say that every time you hang up with her?

I try to.

Now, how can I help you, gentlemen?

The club is closed.

We open at nine tonight.

Oh, we're well aware of the operating hours of this establishment.

My name is Billy Bob Nugent.

I heard you were looking for me.

Yes, I have been looking for you, Mr.

Nugent.

Well, here I am.

In living color.

What can I do for you, boy?

I got an important meeting at the dog track.

You owe Sebastian $22 ,000.

And you need to pay up before I add the juice.

The juice!

He said juice.

Is this a joke?

First of all, nobody's seen Sebastian for weeks.

Word on the street is that Baby and Doll are both dead.

So why would I pay you shit, boy?

Because if you don't, I'm gonna put my foot so far up your ass, you're gonna

think it's a colonoscopy.

You.

You got a set of balls, don't you?

Yeah, a platinum pair of balls.

The size of coconut.

Now, where the fuck is my money?

Yeah.

Well, you can wish him one hand and shit in the other and see which one fills up

faster.

Because shit is all you're getting from me other than a good ass -whooping boy.

I'm not your boy.

Don't... Don't let me turn him loose on you.

You're lucky you're getting off as easy as you are, you worthless piece of shit.

I've seen everything now.

Color boy with color, dear.

I'm going to say goodbye.

Rashad.

Give us a minute.

Seems like there's something heavy on your mind, Brother Elijah.

What's troubling you, my son?

I have news, Brother Minister, and it is not favorable.

Well, what is it? Please share.

Xavier is back.

Are you certain of it?

I am.

I was at the park the other day with Sasha Duncan.

She informed me of his return.

So the Duncans are aware of his return?

They are.

But they aren't aware that Xavier contacted me personally And what did he

to say?

Xavier is not in his right mind brother minister.

He is not a well man.

He threatened to kill all of us all of us

My fear is that even though the Duncans may well be aware of his close

proximity, they do not know what kind of threat he truly is.

I agree.

I promised the Duncans that if Xavier contacted me, I would inform them, and I

want to keep my word.

I will not let Xavier hurt Sasha or her family.

So I'm asking, for your permission for me to talk to the Duncans on our behalf.

I fully understand your fondness for Sasha Duncan.

However, because of the new agreement between the Duncans and the table, I

I'm best suited for this job.

As you wish, Brother Minister.

I will go talk to the Duncans immediately.

And be assured that I will make sure they understand everything you shared

me today.

There's one more thing.

Yes?

He now has my gun.

You see Nevada?

I'm supposed to take the driving.

Man, I already did that.

He's supposed to be here like four hours ago. Yeah, I know. I got stuck in the

lab. Where is he?

Took him and his boy to the mall.

Guess there's supposed to be some honeys up there, son. He wasn't upset, was he?

I mean, what'd you think, ho?

I don't know. That's why I'm asking you.

I mean, yeah, he was... He seemed pretty upset.

Hey, Orlando.

Hey. Give me a moment with your cousin. I need to chat with him.

Okay, he's all yours, Pop. See you later.

What's up, Uncle?

Listen, I need you to go with Sasha to Miami.

Miami? Yeah.

Come on, Uncle. You ain't trying to get rid of me, are you?

I mean, I know what Orlando thinks, but I've been on this. I promise you I've

been on this Brother X thing.

Listen, I know you have, but this is just as important.

Yon Chippy wants you to go check on Rio.

Rio? Yeah.

She has this feeling something's not right down there, and her woman's

has been right more than it's been wrong.

I mean, my mom's the same way.

I know. This thing can't wait like a day or two.

I mean, and from my understanding, she can handle this stuff on her own.

You know?

I'm real close to catching this bastard. Listen, I'm sure you are, but, um...

You know, Sasha's very capable, but with everything she's been through lately, I

don't want to send her out there alone.

But why me? I mean, you got all these highly trained dudes here.

Listen, I would send Junior in, but Rio would just think I'm sending in a

babysitter. And Orlando would just try to tell him how to run his business.

All right, I'll go.

When do we leave?

Well, let's see. Can you be ready in 20 minutes?

Jeff's being fuel as we speak.

All right, I'll be ready.

But, Hawk, I'm telling you, I'm real close to catching this dude.

$48. That's all I'm asking.

If anything comes up before then, the boys will deal with it.

All right.

And

that

suit is being altered for you. Oh, thanks.

Of course.

Excuse me, excuse me.

Good evening, Miss Duncan.

Hi.

I was calling to tell you I have to leave town for a few days.

Oh. Well, this is sudden. I thought we were getting together tomorrow for a

Yeah, we were.

Um, but something came up, so I have to go to Miami.

Oh, Miami.

Uh, nice.

It's for work, actually, but...

You're welcome to come if you'd like to.

They have flights every hour.

That sounds wonderful.

But I can't.

Unfortunately, I have a lot of work to catch up on myself.

Oh, I understand.

I will talk to you later.

I look forward to it.

And Sasha?

Yes?

Um...

Have a safe trip.

I'll see you when you get back.

Oh.

Yeah, I look forward to it, too.

Elijah.

Bye.

Sasha's going to Miami.

One business.

And she invited you to come with her?

She did.

I said, no.

You can't just go on vacation.

Oh, Brother Elijah.

I love you.

Sometimes you're pathetic.

You know what? This conversation is pointless. I'm done talking to you.

All I'm saying is, if I had a smart...

beautiful woman, invite me to Miami, I definitely won't be sitting here moping.

I'll be gone.

I'll be packing my bag and looking forward to losing my virginity.

Get out.

Go.

What is it?

It's a problem.

What kind of problem?

A fucking Cuban problem.

What? Yo, open the door. It's me.

What you want, Charlie?

As -salamu alaykum. You know my name is Xavier.

Yo, I need you to go put some clothes on, go down to this bank, and see what's

wrong with this account for their clothes.

You gonna give me some money if I go?

I'll give you $100.

$100? Man, that ain't shit.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I'll give you $200 if you hurry up.

Fine.

Don't do that.

Don't do what?

I ain't even say nothing, cuz.

I ain't say one word. I know your thoughts, Curtis.

Just say it.

Whatever. Mm -hmm.

What's up, sexy?

He's here.

What? Speak out, Ma. I can't hear you. I said he's here.

He's in the bathroom.

So you got to get here quick, because he's not going to be here much longer

I get back from the bank.

Shit, I can't get there right now?

That ain't got nothing to do with me.

And I still want my money like you promised.

I did what I was supposed to do.

Look, I'm going to get you your money.

You ain't got to worry about that. But look, keep them there as long as

possible. And don't mention that I'm coming.

Okay, okay, okay.

What's up, Curtis? What's going on?

Hey, Junior, I got a lead on Brother X.

I'm gonna send you the address, but you gotta get there ASAP.

I got you.

Nah, man, you gotta get there quick.

I mean, you only got like a half an hour or so.

All right, we're on it.

Send the address.

Cool. I'll hit you when we land.

And remember, Second floor, apartment 204.

I'll send you the address right now.

Copy.

You're old!

Just got a call from Curtis. Got a lead on Brother X.

Oh, he knows where X is?

Good. He can go and get him. Not us.

That's what we pay him for.

Instead of sitting around here lounging, cooking, and playing golf and hanging

out with Nevada.

I mean, what do I look like doing his job? You crazy.

Yo, what's wrong with you, man?

Yo, what's wrong with you? I'm not doing his job. That's what we pay him for.

Yo, what's wrong with you? You got an attitude.

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

Pop,

Curtis just called. He has a lead on Brother X. He sent over the address

we could find him. Then why aren't you heading over there?

Pop. We're not just going to rush all the way down to Brooklyn and hope that's

where X might be. If Curtis was sure where he was at, he'd go down there and

play hero himself.

Curtis can't go.

Besides, we're family, okay? We need to be backing him up. I mean, that's fair,

but where is he? Your mother and I sent him to Miami to check on Rio.

Now, you listen to me, boy, and you listen to me good now, okay? I want

rounded up and headed to that address now.

Pop, this don't make sense. Don't you understand a thing I just said?

I don't give a shit if he sent you the address to an IHOP on Jupiter.

You go now. I want that brother that's caught, and I want him caught now.

Yeah, man, let's go.

Got a real attitude problem.

Got a problem.

Here we go, man.

What time?

If they don't tip...

Get him out of here. You know what to do. We ain't playing that shit.

Yes, ma 'am.

Welcome, Demise. Well, we guarantee... Y 'all got an open chair for Manny?

Oh, it's you.

You got my shit?

Well, damn, Maude.

Hello to you, too.

Well, hello, Billy Bob.

You got my shit?

Not exactly.

What the fuck do you mean, not exactly?

You up here in my spot and you ain't got my shit?

Whoa, easy.

I'm doing you a favor.

You call me, I ain't call you.

The reason why I called you was because I need my shit. And if you ain't got my

shit, I need you to take your little skinny ass out of my shop.

Okay, all right.

Give me three steps, I'll leave.

But I think I might have something you want.

Spill it.

Is it better than heat?

Because heat is my shit.

Oh, baby.

It's so much better than heat.

This will light you up and set you on fire.

I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna leave a little sample right here for you.

And if you like it, I'm fairly certain you know where to find me.

If this some bullshit, I'm gonna come find your little skinny -ass Billy Bob.

Get out of here. I believe you'll be hunting me down either way.

Oh, and Maude, go easy on them rascals. Take only one.

That ain't he.

It's the second floor. I'm going to go first.

Carlos, you cover me.

DJ, C -Note, you cover the side and the back of the building. Oh, you cover the

front.

I got 500 that says he's not even here.

Oh, really?

You really going to do this shit right now? Just saying.

Oh, are you with us or not?

I'm going to cover the front, but I'm telling you, I'm singing all the way

I told you so.

Let's go, guys.

Hello, Ruby?

Hey, Orlando.

Where are you? And where's my son?

I didn't call to argue, Orlando.

I called to talk, to just lose the attitude, please.

Okay, I apologize.

We can talk.

Well, I just wanted to tell you that your son...

I don't know what that is.

Oh, shit!

That's coming from out front.

That's got to be Orlando.

Yeah, sounds like it. Let's go.

Come on.

I heard the shots. Was that Brother X?

Yeah, that was him.

What happened?

He slipped away in his car. I missed him. How? He had to come through that

I don't know.

What to tell you, Junior? I fucked up.

You on your phone?

Why do you got your phone in your hand?

You know we're fucked, bro.

Papa's gonna kill us.

No, he's gonna kill me.

I can't believe this shit.

We don't need a reason.

We just need the cream.

Turn up for the team.

We live in a dream.

Single for the weekend.

Turn up for the team.

Turn up for the team.

Turn up for the team.
