All language subtitles for sneaks.2025.1080p.webrip.x264.aac5.1-_yts.mx

Ladies and gentlemen, for the rest of
the weekend, downtown 8th Avenue, A, C,

and E line service will all travel via
the express track.

all started. I got to let you up right
before we start walking. I want to talk

about the sneaks and the orange boxes.
If you know, you know. But if you don't,

there's a coachman to start with. LeBron
James had four rings. He wore three

stripes. And they look so clean.

Then I heard great. They checked over
stripes.

And when they thought about it, they
said, that's right. They're like Air

They're like Air Max.

They're like low tops.

They be wearing that. They're like
prestos. They're like retros.

They're like, I don't know.

that you want to be.

Trust me, you can do anything.

When I say anything, I mean anything.

Okay, I get it. Pay attention.

There's a couple of things that my
friend didn't mention. There's a couple

things that I've seen that he didn't.
And one, next day, that was different.

Feel us. Reebok.

Converse. I thought too late. Velcro.
Slip on. Why not? So many ways to choose

to make a statement. So many thoughts to
say. Thoughts to make it. Kobe or

LeBron. It's a slam dunk. Put them on.

Like a track star, he makes Nikes
running mild. 23 like Jordans, every

every style.

My sneeze can't do anything.

It's like magic right in front of me.

My sneeze can't do anything.

When I say anything, I mean anything.

Yeah, back in 85, they chose to fly. The
league chose to fly for sneakers that

were designed.

But that opened the door for plans to
make more. For rappers to have things

used to couldn't afford.

Tell a lot about somebody from the
sneaks they wear. Could tell you where

came from and what brought them here.
The wires that we hang from help us face

our fears. The laces that we tie with
keep us safe, I swear. A lot of people

don't know about these old souls. And
these different fella boxes that we call

home. When you slip, let these sneaks be
your backbone.

And when you walk, let these cheeks
bring you back home.

My sneeze can do anything. Take you
anywhere that you want to be. My sneeze

do anything.

When I say anything, I'll be anything.

My sneeze can do anything.

It's like magic right in front of me.

My sneeze can do anything.

When I say anything, I'll...

Man,

ask any of the greats. Michael Jordan,
Kobe Bryant, Serena Williams.

They all tell you the same thing. If you
want support, Get a great pair of

kicks. Wait, if we're built for support,
then what are we doing up here? Yeah,

Tremick's a good point. Bro, we provide
a narrative support. And once a year,

sneakerheads come together for the
largest convention this side of the

River. The Sneakerhead Gala.

Wait, are we in Manhattan?

Bro, movie magic.

We're in a movie? When's it start? Oh, I
love popcorn.

With extra butter and soda.

God, this is part of the movie.

Now zip it. I need to use the bathroom.

My sneaks can't do anything.

Ooh, those are pretty.

Mom, they're not pretty.

They're fire.

Uh -huh.

Stay in your lane!

Are you crazy?

Whoa!

I'm the only good driver in this city.

My boy gets to go to the sneaker gala.

Maybe we'll get to see Paul Chris.

Chris Paul, Mom.

Whatever. Paul Chris, Chris Paul.

Oh, it's here.

Wow.

This is crazy.

Better jump out, and I'll see you
inside.

I love you, Patito.

Mom.

Love you, Mom.

Besos.

future.

Shanika, what up?

I'm working on my spin. Come on. Help
me.

Let's see what you got.

Oh, man.

Don't worry. You'll get it.

Just keep going. We practice, all right?

How many tickets would you like?

Vanessa.

Hey, Vanessa.

Hey, Vanessa.

Whoa!

Hey, Ray.

Are you okay?

Hey, Vanessa.

I thought you were good at basketball.

Yeah, well... So, the raffle, huh? I'll
get me 24s? Yep, 100 bucks a pop.

100 bucks?

Wow. You're a volunteer at the youth
club, right?

That means you get a free ticket.

No way.

Guess it's your lucky day.

But if you win, don't be one of those
guys who make the shrines into shoes,

okay? I mean, I'd love to be one of
those guys, but I could use them.

Midnight Madness tonight, huh?

Well, I've never been.

Uh, yeah, about that.

It's, um, I mean, I was wondering...

Excuse me, sir, but I don't think dogs
are allowed in here. Mercury is more

a dog.

He's a high B.

He loves shoes more than... Sniffing and
licking everything.

Those are mine.

Vanessa, that's the collector.

He has the sickest, illest, most
ridiculous shoe collection in the whole

Naturally in the world. I can't believe
I'm shaking the foot of such a legend in

the hand game. I mean, hand in the foot
game. I mean... Wow, I'm so cringe.

You keep it real now, little man.

Yo, that's his catchphrase.

I'll take 100 tickets.

They're $100 each, sir.

In that case, make it $200.

Well, I guess my chances of winning just
took a dive. Better luck next time,

kid. Hey, sneak ahead. I need all eyes
to the stage right now. Please welcome

the endless and the realest CP3. That's
right, Mr. Christopher, a man called...

Hey, wake up. It's the moment of truth,
baby bro.

Baby? You're like 15 seconds older than
me. I just hope we're going to end up

with someone phenomenal.

Someone who will actually use us. Use
us? I prefer a pedestal. Maybe a

turntable. Some dope lighting. Nothing
too fancy. Just something to show off

these aglets and this one -of -a -kind
holographic certificate of absolute

authenticity.

Eyes closed.

It's showtime.

Beat the odds on the A24!

The exclusive, hyper -limited, often
imitated, never replicated, flyer than

fly, Alchemy 24!

What did I miss? Did I miss it? And the
winning number is... One.

Seven.

Five.

Sorry, kid. It's a wrap. And the last
number is three.

I won?

He won.

Yo, I got the ticket. I won.

Congratulations to our winner.

Hey, what's your name, kid? Edson. My
name's Edson. Our winner.

like i won the lottery maybe you did a
pair of 24s could fetch a pretty penny

from the right buyer i heard the b word
i think somebody's trying to buy us so

tell me what's the damage gonna be i'm
sorry but they're not for sale

everybody's got a price let me make it
worth your while

no it's not about money Well, how about
a once -in -a -lifetime collector's

starter kit?

15 pairs of vintage kicks, NBA
championship ring, naming rights to a

arena of your choice. I can hear it now.

Madison Square, Edson.

What do you say, kid?

Sorry, Mr.

Collector, but me and these shoes, we're
going places.

This kid's got integrity.

I know. We gotta do something. He's
about to blow the deal.

Yeah, I think you just might be. But one
way or the other, I will have those

shoes.

My son already gave you his answer. So
maybe, stop begging.

Nobody is begging, but we don't do beg.

Edson, get in the car.

And pow, right on the button. I love to
see Mr. Paul Chris do that.

Chris Paul, Mom. Chris Paul.

Hey, that was a nice pass, though. Paul
Chris, Chris Paul, whatever.

All I know is some crazy man with his
weird dog. Talk about naming rights.

Naming rights?

Oh, yeah.

Midnight Madness all comes down to this.

Five seconds left on the clock.

He's got one man to feed. Who, me? You
can't pass me.

And the crowd goes wild.

Sorry,

Miss Finster.

Oh, no.

It's scuffed.

Honey, their shoes. Aren't they supposed
to get a little dirty?

No, not these.

I got to look extra fresh tonight.

I'm trying to stand out when I'm on the
court.

Edson, why don't we celebrate?

Oh, you can eat tacos from across the
street.

Yeah, that sounds fire.

Sorry that happened to you.

I got a little overexcited.

Stay right here.

Ah! A foot! He put his foot inside me!

I like him.

What? Maxine, he scuffed you. And?

And now you're hideous. A monster!

I think it looks cute.

You realize I gotta be seen with you,
right?

Just as jealous. Because I've got
something that you don't. A badge of

Badge of Honor.

Yuck! Give me a break.

I'm getting out of here. I'm starting to
feel dust on my tongue.

I kind of love it here, okay?

It feels surreal.

Too real. This whole house is scuffed.
And it's not cute.

He's gonna wear us down to where nothing
but a sweaty, stinky soul.

We gotta hide. Hide enough, okay?

Every inch of our tread was made to be
part of something bigger.

Just the words midnight madness gives me
the chills. Every inch of me is a

specimen of superior museum quality
engineering.

This is not how my story ends.

Is that climate control?

What, dude?

We're being kidnapped!

Well, agree to disagree. How about that?

Wait a minute. Did he give me lavender?

Oh, you sweet, thoughtful, beautiful
man!

Hey!

Listen,

we can get out of here and back to Edson
in time for Midnight Madness, as long

as we work together.

Work? together count me out hi

there's a mattress up ahead we

can land there and you don't have to
worry about getting scuffed but it looks

wet and not with water no no it won't
stop it stop it

The one and only... They say imitation
is the highest form of flattery. So what

do the keen eyes of the collector think
of my latest and greatest?

Oh, the coloring is off. The pattern on
the heel doesn't even match the toe cap.

And the logo is on upside down.

Hmm, devil is in the detail.

Before you start making up pathetic
excuses, did you...

Drop by drop.

Oh, I got your Alchemy 24s right here.

But let's just say it wasn't easy.

If a slam dunk was easy, everybody would
make one every time.

But you would know that better than
most. It makes me sick putting these

sneaks into the... You know why you're
giving them to me, Mr.

Keeping It Real.

Or do you need a reminder?

Isaac G. elevates for the slam.

gonna feel that in the morning now let's
see those sneaks ah

now some

things you just can't fake where's the
other one you'll see the other one when

you pick them up here tonight have it
your way but just remember best collect

yourself before you wreck yourself
forger out

I think it's called scream therapy.

Like you know anything about therapy.

Bro, what?

I don't have you know I am very in touch
with my emotions.

All one and a half of them. It looks
like fun.

No, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

It's a dream. It's a dream. Just a
dream. A very bad dream. Dream. I had a

dream once. It was crazy. Where my soles
were my laces, and my laces were my

soles. I was tied to the ground, and my
treads were in my tongue. So weird.

Huh? Honey, don't mind him. He has PTSD.

Pretty terrible sun damage.

Yeah, his chops are toasted.

Stay up here long enough, and you'll be
just like us.

What?

I thought that was a good thing.

Man, if it ain't something, it's
something else.

Hey, we use our outdoor, indoor voices
out here.

Now blingity, bling, bling.

Hey up there, you good?

No, of course I'm not good. Do I look
good? You should probably get down from

there.

Now that's a good idea, okay?

If I knew how to get down.

You're not tied to that wire, you know.
Just relax.

Open up.

Let go.

I'll help you.

You promise?

Hey, do I look like a liar?

No.

Well, you said it, not me.

Okay, okay. Here we go.

I thought you were going to catch me. I
said I'd help

you. I didn't say nothing about
catching.

Name's JB.

Now look at you.

Gold trim.

Chimped out accents, quarter van
leather.

Boy, you as soft as a noob.

Thanks, man. That's nice.

Look, I'm lost.

Mm -hmm.

I have to find some guy called The
Collector. He's got my sister.

The Collector, you say?

Fixing to break out, are you?

Absolutely not.

I want to join her and live in luxury
like I'm meant to. I mean, I'm no dirty,

torn, smelly street sneaker sleeping on
the sidewalk one step away from being

thrown away like yesterday's garbage.

Yuck.

Oh,

sorry.

Flashy sneaks like yourself don't need
to be kicking it out here on the main

streets. Looks to me like you can use my
street smarts. So you'll help me? Oh,

I'll help you for a small one -time
donation.

Donation?

My gyms?

Gyms. Now, there's a great suggestion.

Um, but I need my gyms. Oh, okay. I
respect that.

Sneak out of half principles.

Good luck finding your sis.

I'm guessing we got about a 300 % chance
of rain later on.

You know how to swim, right?

Oh, and watch out for rats.

They like to gnaw on sneakers.

Right down to the thread.

Let's go.

Ooh, wow.

We might as well go see the king.

He's got to know about the collection.

There's a king.

A king shoe?

Sure. O .G. is the O .G. of O .G.'s. He
started it off. I can't believe it. An

hour on the streets, and I'm already
meeting royalty.

With you as my guide, J .B., nothing can
go wrong.

That young kick would have been better
off up here.

JB is one sneaky thing. You see, Trey,
that's why you don't talk to strangers

unless they're hanging from a wire. What
if they have ice cream? No.

Ow! Pebble! Pebble! Oh, I'm hit! I'm
hit!

I'm too pretty to die!

Come on. Oh, get it off! Get it off! I
haven't even met a girl sneaker! It's

really not that bad, kid.

Relax.

Ah! Get away! Ah!

Oh!

Am I starved for life?

That was free.

What kind of rubber is this? Funny you
should ask. It's a proprietary blend of

organic polyurethane. Oh, come on, let's
go. I'm injured. It's obvious you're

going to have to carry me the rest of
the way. Oh, I have nothing to give.

me you're not serious.

Whoa!

Why did you throw me? Shh, I got an
idea.

Come on.

Wait, what's that rank cheesy smell?

Yuck! It makes my eyes water.

You want to be carried?

Well, here you go.

Thought it was love, but look at it.

Rather would be for me.

I don't wanna speak no more.

is not it. Hey, don't you even think
about it. I'm warning you.

Oh, no.

I'm so used to this.

That door is made of the strongest
quality polycarbonate.

Electronically sealed with encrypted
biometric lock.

Well, this is tacky.

You don't say.

So what's the best way out of this
prison?

Prison?

This isn't a prison.

More like paradise. The Hall of Fame of
Retirement Home.

Can you leave this paradise?

No, no, no. But that's enough.

What Wiz is trying to say is, well, for
some sneaks, this is an... an

aspiration.

An aspiration?

We're meant to do things. To strive. To
achieve. Look at them. What they did.

What we can do. Sure, but things have
changed.

Sneaks are more than that now.
They're... valued, worshipped even.

Yo, four eyes. Keep yapping.

You're going to wake Joe.

Well, why did y 'all geeks say we got a
newbie in the house?

Got a name?

Maxine. Maxine. So you must be pretty
special to end up here, especially on

own. Where's your pair?

I don't know, and I'm not ending up
here, okay? But speaking of special,

this kid, Edson. He's got a basketball
game. Oh, snap.

Air Max about to bang out at the garden.

Nice!

Uh, no.

Olympics then. Faster, higher, stronger.
Cool.

Maybe an alien goon squad in a high
-tech AI server first.

Okay, uh, look, you've all done so many
amazing things. Tech companies, hit

music, championships.

Word. But I haven't done anything. And
Edson, well, he has his first high

game tonight. Hold up!

High school? As in before college?

Yes. No disrespect, but that's basic or
the basic?

Not the programming language, just
basic, basic.

Sorry. Okay, so I'm not in your league.
But maybe I can make a difference to one

kid.

Maxie, the collector is, well...
Possessive. Yeah, I said it. Big men

really want to let things go.

Clues in the name.

On the bright side, the world outside is
all mud and bugs, drops, ice cream

cones, dirt, dust.

Look, okay, I don't belong here. At
least not yet.

I've got a brother to find and a game to
play. I say you got it good right here.

Collector dropped you in on a pedestal.

Lost pairs don't usually get much love.

Besides, ain't but one way out. And you,
old girl, don't want it.

Oh, for the love of God. I can't
breathe.

This is so smelly. My eyes are burning.
Everything's going dark.

Where am I?

Hey, hey, hey. Whatever's coming up,
keep it in.

My whole life.

Just flashed before my eyes.

I haven't really lived much, huh? Well,
keep an eye out. Just keep walking and

keep your laces tight.

JB, wait.

Keep your nerve and don't say nothing
unless I talk first.

Oh, shoot. Ice?

Oh, it's been a minute.

Got that right.

And me and Fire, we've been looking
forward to this for a long, long time.

Y 'all wouldn't be bringing attitude if
the big guy was here. Well, he ain't.

I don't feel safe. I said don't talk a
lot.

He's right, kid. Sneaks don't talk
around here. We converse.

Oh, gee.

What up, King?

Boy, are you a cypher, so I'll let.

Jamie, who's the new shoe?

Hello, I'm Ty.

Oh, he's brand, brand new. Might say
he's fresh out the box.

A sneak has to be careful who they roll
with.

Where's your pair?

We got separated, but luckily, JB
volunteered to help me find her. If

telling me the great JB of volunteering,
I'll tell you he's after something.

Hey, I ain't got to listen to this. We
were just hoping on getting some guys.

Oh, I'll show you where to go, bro.

You and your mama?

Oh, you talking about my mama? Hey, my
mama was a Louboutin.

Yeah, your mama was from Payless. Whoa!

Hold up now.

Nobody's getting curb stomped on my
blacktop.

But before I help you with your new
friend, let's settle some business like

sneaks. On the blacktop. Um, JP, what's
happening?

Whoa, what is this place?

You ain't never seen basketball played
before?

Sure I have. It's the one with the round
thing and the round thing.

Simple. You mean the ball and the hoop?

Exactly. So.

Which one is the hoot?

Wow.

All right, boys.

You know the rules. First team to 21
wins.

Remember,

keep it clean.

Oh, it's time to take out the trash.

Call me the janitor.

Come on, kid.

Hey, where'd you get that blink, player?
Oh, there? Just a little gift from my

new friend.

I think you mean grip.

I think I brewed something.

Okay, dawg.

I bet.

Yeah, yeah. In your face.

Yeah, right here. That's my shoe.

That's my shoe.

Me and JB smoke, y 'all.

Back up. Y 'all can't get with this.

Laces up.

We got him, JB. We got him.

Here we go, JB. That sneak was meant to
fly.

Yeah!

Hey, come on now. Nobody likes to show
off.

Sure.

Wait.

Look at that.

Oh,

that's right. Come on back when you
learn how to

tie them laces.

All right, OG.

What's up? How did we find the
collector?

Really, JB?

You already know who's got the juice.

There's a certain somebody who's got
their foot on the pulse of everyone and

everything in New York.

Oh, come on, man. Please don't bring her
up.

They don't call her the Queen of Heels
for nothing.

Adriana don't know.

No one does.

Hmm. Who's Adriana?

Thanks, OG.

What? JB, wait.

So what was up with all that?

Well, at least... At least O .G. pointed
us at Adriana, right?

Man, I could have got us to Adriana. So
why didn't you?

Listen, man.

She's my ex.

She was my queen.

You can even say you were a soulmate.

And then something happened.

Maybe you can, you know, get the
collector's address and settle old

all at the same time.

I can't go see Adriana looking like
this. Why not?

Oh, man, she's so fancy.

She even got friends with British
actors.

Ow! My treads are sadder than a ball
time.

Wow, yeah, they are.

Oh, lots of folks think bald is
attractive now. But maybe if I was

more of your gems, I just might, just
might be presentable enough.

Uh, hey, whatever it takes, man.

So how do we get to Adriana?

And our ride is on time. Whoa, diamond.

So cool.

Who are you? I'm Scott. And I'm Jaisa.

Together, we're the Borough Board
Express.

Okay, girl, get me to the wedding.

Wedding? I mean, that's a bit
presumptuous, my friend. You don't even

she'll forgive you yet.

We need to go uptown ASAP. As soon as
possible.

And that's when J .B. took Ty for a
literal and metaphorical ride.

You mean J .B. is using Ty for his gem?

Yeah, that's full.

Those are called steaks. And
unfortunately, those steaks were about

beef. Wait, what kind of steaks are we
talking about? New York strip?

Filet mignon? Let's get back to the
story.

Porterhouse?

Ribeye?

Here comes the drums. Wait, what does
that even mean?

Stay in our time.

Watch this. I'm going to bust a rodeo
flat.

And the superstar is down, ladies and
gentlemen. It looks like he lost

his footing. One can only hope that such
a bright future isn't over before it

begins.

I can't seem to win for losing.

I must have the worst luck.

Disappointment hurts, huh?

Disappointment hurts, huh?

And I'm disappointed. I guess someone
just takes them when it wasn't yours,

yeah.

It's all so unfair, and I know they
don't care, no.

So what do I do when I'm seeing red, but
I'm still feeling blue?

So what do I do now?

Let me know, because I don't have a
clue.

What a day.

You ready for tonight?

Oh, snap.

And the crowd goes wild.

Okay. We can get you some new sneakers.

They might not be as fancy as your other
ones, but we do have the money.

Thanks, Mom, but those 24s were special.

They were my future.

I'd give anything to have them back.

Now arriving at Killer Queen.

Next stop...

Your choice of transport always makes me
feel like I'm gonna be sick. Yeah,

whatever, kid. This is the spot. There's
fancy food for fancy people wearing

fancy shoes.

A wedding party.

Tell me, how do I look, kid?

Um, good. You look good.

Okay, uh, good.

Good. I mean, you look good.

You're a bad liar, man.

What's a good liar?

The Big Apple Youth Club has been giving
kids a place to grow and learn for

decades. This is Edson, a volunteer at
the club. And who do you have with you

here? I'm Shanika. So, Shanika, what do
you like about the club? The fun. And...

Edson. He helps us with school and
teaches us all kinds of stuff.

All right, Mercury, enough of the puppy
dog eyes.

Well,

well, well.

I got it.

I got it. You did should be tired by
now. I know I am.

She ain't got it. I got it.

I got it.

I got it.

It's impossible.

Technically, it's not impossible.

Lucas did it. Lucas. Lucas. Oh, great.
Okay, okay. Who's Lucas?

The most annoying sneak I ever met.
Always kicking all the

world's stage.

Come on, now.

What's that even mean?

So, how'd he do it? Simple.

His pair helped him.

But my pair is out there.

Hey, why are you hiding in there?

I've been in this box for years.

Since before the collector was well, you
know, the collector.

Oh, so back in the day. Back in the day.

Yeah, I was part of the first pair he
saved up for.

Named Spike.

Though I haven't seen my other half in
so long, I can barely remember what he

looks like.

Probably a lot like you?

Not as good looking, though.

It's only been a couple hours, and I
actually missed Ty.

Like a lot.

Eddie feel the same about you.

Well, last time... I saw him.

I kind of threw him off a speeding
motorcycle, so... Nah, yeah, that's not

but, you know, that's siblings.

Yep, a pair of kicks are the same, so
thick or thin, you can't get no closer

than that.

Yeah, this is the place.

That's where we'll find her.

Come on. Anybody knows about the
collector, it'll be A. Now listen. Be

kid, and don't embarrass me.

Wow.

She's something else, man.

Hey, now.

There's my girl, Adriana.

Fine, every time.

Oh, you got a lot of nerve dragging your
raggedy behind up in here.

You're still mad, huh?

Mad? I don't have to care to be mad. You
cannot even tool time me. Come on, now.

Don't be like that. We had fun back in
the day.

You know, JB, there's a reason you're
out there on your own.

Yeah, well, I'm here with my boy, Ty.

Ain't that right, Ty? Uh, yeah.

He's, um, he's helping me.

Helping?

That's right.

Uh -huh. Nice bling. Hey, Natto. Don't
look at me like that. I'm just holding

them for you.

Look good, though, don't it? So can we
talk?

I'm here to dance.

You remember how to dance, don't you?

She's really going to make me do this.

Yo, Adriana, hold up. JV, wait.

There's quite the high arches in here.

Oh, excuse me.

I'll just wait outside.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Sorry? That's an odd name.

Oh. No.

Ty. My name is Ty.

Ty. Hmm.

I like that.

I'm Brittany.

Never seen you around here before. You
new?

Oh, yeah, kind of. You can say that.

Yes. I love this song.

You don't? I'm not really.

Follow me.

Listen up, Ty.

Dance like no one's watching.

Let your soul be free.

Listen, girl, I ain't doing this for
myself, you know. This kid is lost.

He's in real pain, Adriana. He lost his
sister, and I'm really out here trying

to find her for him.

Oh, yeah, he looks so torn up.

Woo, woo, woo!

Go, Ty.

Woo!

Goodbye, DB.

He really did lose his sister, and I am
helping him find her. Helping him or

helping yourself?

Oh, hey, come on.

Yeah, you're right, okay? I mean, I
figure he got plenty of bling to spare,

and I got you.

Look at me.

How's a low -down stick like me good
enough for a high hill like you?

Jay, you had all the bling you ever
needed.

Are you telling me the truth about this
kid? Yeah.

Okay, then. Come on.

Oh, whoa, whoa.

Yo, no dogs inside the hotel, okay? Hey.

OMG, the Collector.

Oh, my.

Take to the ground.

Not now. I don't have time for photos.

What I mean, uh, for a super stand.

Hey, sure.

Yeah, chin up, chin down.

Yeah, that's it. I'm bad.

Brittany, Ty here needs to find the
collector.

Tell him what you told me about that
sleek that broke out of his leg.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember.

Word is, a shoe named Lucas escaped with
his pair not too long ago.

The only shoe to ever do it.

Find this Lucas, and you find your
sister's location.

That's great. Wait. How are we going to
find one sneaker in a city as big as New

York?

Hey, girl. It's showtime.

I know you've been

searching high and low.

But there is a man.

Searching high and low.

But there is a man who saw you.

Deep down at the floor.

Deep down at the floor.

Lucas, the bowling alley.

I can guarantee you he'll be there.

Just ask for Lucas.

Oh, Lucas.

Can you believe this? You came here to
find Lucas?

This is how we do it. She could have
just told us. This is like swatting a

with a bazooka.

We'll be looking for Maxine in Jersey.

And bull. Got it? When I say go.

JB!

Now.

Now. Now what?

Green light. Come on.

different than now and do it even worse
you're the poster child for an

narcissist i don't even understand how
you can do that and then try and react

like i did something wrong you could
have even said pull forget i said

so how far away is harlem far but
luckily there's a shortcut

no no no really can't get enough of us
nobody ever said it

You can open your eyes now.

Whoa.

Wow, JB, look at this.

Where do you want to go?

To say the word and I promise we'll
roll. Wow, it's beautiful.

And we will fly, fly, like rockets in
the sky.

Oh, oh.

Oh, oh.

Oh, oh.

Like rockets in the sky. That scene
would love this.

I can't wait to tell her all the...

things I got to do without her.

Walking like a true little brother.

So, who's Isaac?

He must be really important if he has
his name written on you, right?

Yeah, I... Hey, look.

There's just a time that I realized I
was better off alone.

Why?

You wouldn't understand.

Oh, come on. Tell me.

At first, we're all crispy and new.

But then life happens.

And you get broken in.

Before you know it, you're just broke.

That's really sad. I'm sorry, JP.

Hey, what are you doing?

I'm getting broken in, man.

You are too kind.

I mean...

Wow. The two we saw this morning
couldn't stand each other. Now they look

boys for life.

Ty and JB are finally becoming friends.

We had it. We had it. You better get
away from here.

Don't even think about it.

I'm back.

Where have you been?

I've been home all day.

I've been home all day. I had a feeling
you might say that.

If these aren't you, they're exceptional
copies. So lifelike.

I'd say you're out trying to solve the
case of the missing 24s.

Ty?

You can't play me, player. So beg for
forgiveness.

What did you just say?

I said bang!

Intruder alert.

Intruder alert.

Intruder alert.

Intruder alert.

Access denied.

Your password is no good.

No!

Forge or get out of my shoes!

I've got the sweat collecting on your
brow.

Never lie to the Forger, or I'll turn
your sneaks in to shoot confetti.

Capisce? Yes. Yes.

I capisce. I capisce. Good.

Then I'll see you and both my Alchemy
24s real soon.

Forger out.

Mercury, let's go.

gone horribly wrong. I know. I had to
come tell you. The collector is into

deep dirt with the maniac named the
Forger.

This is no longer a safe space.

It's more a rip -off -your -face place.

Don't worry.

I've got a plan.

So what are we going to do, Max?

You're not going to want it.

We're going down the garbage chute.

Just shoot me now.

Shoot!

I don't want to go down the chute.
Colonel Panic! Colonel Panic! Colonel

Cool. Okay, you've got nothing to worry
about.

How can you be so sure?

Because... Edson is coming to get us.

No time.

Something I need to get off my chest.
There it is.

Come on, we gotta go.

We gotta find a way inside.

Ty, seriously, man, I gotta... Oh,

look, we can hop a ride in that.

Wait, wait up.

Hold up a second.

When I first saw you up there on that
wire, I saw something I wanted.

You had something I wanted.

I don't get it. I wanted your blame,
man. I wanted it, and I didn't care what

had to do to get it.

But the collector and... Man, I don't
give a rip about no collector.

Ain't you listening?

I was hustling you, man.

You were a mark, a chump.

Wait, wait up.

But it's all good.

I got to know the real you.

My guy, Ty.

If bling is what you want, just take it
all.

I think you were right after all.

You really are better off on your own.

Ty!

Look, I was hustling you.

But I am now.

Those kind of nights.

When the sneaks tell you where to go on
autopilot.

And you're lucky if you make it home.

Make the most of being young and broken.

Dancing drunk and hopelessly in love.

Love with anyone.

I'm not crying.

Let it out. Here, take my lady.

Yo,

you good in there?

Y 'all better not be playing.

Yo, what's up?

Yeah, I'll take a pair of size 12,
please.

Let me check in the back.

Nice.

Brittany?

How'd you...

Are you okay there?

You are no cocaine.

I got a splitting headache.

Oh, man, what happened to you?

The forger happened to me.

One minute, you're being fucked and
polished.

The next thing you know, you're half the
sneaker you used to be.

Cut me up just to make a whole box of
fakes.

Fakes. The forger can rip off my soul.

But he'll never rip out my soul.

The forgy.

He ain't even real.

Real? It looks like I slipped in a
bathtub to you.

Oh, he's real, all right. I call him a
nightmare.

But nightmares, they ain't real.

And now, I hear he's got the collector
doing his bidding.

After those alchemy 24 deaths.

Ty, no!

But if the collector's working with the
forger... Sorry,

man. Rest in peace.

I gotta say, Ty.

Maybe. How'd you get this number? I am
the collector.

Crazy influencers.

Follow me.

Wait.

Okay.

Wait a minute. Am I too young for the
club? Nah. You might be a kid shoe, but

you're 35 years old.

35?

Whoops. I think I scuffed you.

It's all good. Now I match Max.

Well, if it ain't the rookie of the year
himself.

Oh, gee.

You look like you've been through it.
Through it and to it.

Your boy Lucas?

He's over there.

Thank you, Adriana.

You like Shakespeare?

Huh? Yeah, that's what I thought.

Don't thank me yet.

Sorry, Betsy. I don't think I can do
this. I'm allergic to dogs.

Specifically, dog teeth.

Are okay at wedding yourself mutually
exclusive?

Uh... Then, yeah, I'm okay. All right.
Um, okay.

Now for the hard part.

Okay, hopefully this won't take too...
Found him. What? Sorry that took so

I forgive you.

Now, type this message.

Found your alchemies. Meet me right
away.

I found your brother.

Yes, Wiz. You're a genius.

Yes.

You just posted a lost sneaker.

Maybe. The collector has him.

Good thing we didn't leave yet. Imagine
if you missed each other.

Um,

what is that?

B -style.

Gotta be faster than that. Don't y 'all
got someplace better to be?

Nah. Just you and Tom, baby.

Next car that passes is mine.

Garbage in, garbage out.

Excuse me, are you Lupus? Ah, a rose by
any other name.

We're looking for the collector.

To be or not to be, that is the
question. Well, actually, man, the

are you Lupus?

You might have heard of me, star of such
productions as The Taming of the Shoe,

The Twelfth Nike, and Much Adidas About
Nothing.

Okay, Poitier, we're kind of in a hurry.

Why, of course, my boy. If you'd like a
picture, that'll be $10.

I've paid them all, you know. Juliet,
Deaconess.

The queen or not the queen?

That is the question. Come on, hey.

Collect the libs on the other side of
the park.

He's in a skyscraper. Top floor.

Ty,

you're here.

JB, whatever you're selling, you got to
listen to me, all right? Things is worse

than you know. The collector, he's a
drunk.

What the?

Yeah,

I'm going to need to see a claim ticket.

Yeah, I, uh...

I got it. What are you doing?

I'm saving your heart.

Check your social. That shoe's got to be
worth some real cheddar.

I think that ticket you're looking for
is green.

You're in danger if you go with them.
Listen, they're fixing to chop you up.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Wait, no, no, no.

Can't be happening! You've got the wrong
sneaker!

Ty,

are you okay?

I was.

Until I met JB.

And I bet whoever Isaac is, he feels the
same way.

You know about Isaac?

No. Doesn't matter anyway.

Probably just a lie like everything else
out of JB's mouth.

No, Ty.

It isn't.

When he was fresh out the box, J .B.
found his way to the foot of a real

A baller named Isaac.

Isaac and J .B., they were a match made
in heaven.

One just as cocky as the other.

But J .B., well, he lost focus.

Forgot why we're here.

But Isaac needed him most.

Isaac was hurt.

Humiliated.

He never played again.

JB been on his

own ever since.

I... I had no idea.

I think hooking up with you gave him a
little glimpse into what he lost.

For a second there, I thought I saw that
spark.

The old JB.

But he wouldn't lie about something like
this.

I believe him.

Other side of the park, huh?

What's the worst that could happen?

Um...

Hey,

look out. Someone's here.

Central Park looks a lot bigger at
night. And a lot scarier.

Tish, there's shadows in life, baby.

Just go with the flow.

And the flow is Lucas.

Let us sally forth.

Wait!

How about tomorrow, you guys? I just
realized I had the thing I'm supposed to

to tonight that I completely forgot
about. Tomorrow work for all you guys?

Yep. Don't fret, young flyer.

We got you back.

What are you all doing here?

We're shoes.

We were made to give support.

And right now we're going to support you
across this nasty, disgusting, gross,

rat -infested park.

I don't know what to say.

I just... Kai, please.

Once more unto the breach, my friends.

Once more.

That's got to hurt.

I mean, I know it's wrong, but anybody
else just a little bit relieved?

Not today.

What are you doing? Trust me.

You sure know how to show a girl a good
time.

Wow.

I guess I like thinking outside of the
box.

Come on. We've got work to do.

How do we get inside?

We don't.

You do. Wait, Brittany!

There was a collector who lived with his
shoes, but he had a dark secret.

So what could he do?

If you think I'm going to just let you
mess with my sneaks like this, you're

more unhinged than I thought.

Oh, I'm twice as unhinged as you think I
am.

Now, bend me the other shoe.

Get out of my system first.

I can't think you had a position to make
demands.

What? You're still trying to play me,
player?

This has gone too far, forger.

I actually stole sneak from a kid trying
to live his dream. And for what?

Weston? A pang of guilt?

Oh, come on.

Not just for sneakers.

You stole his dreams.

You know, like you used to have.

Well, do what you gotta do.

Fine. Have it your ways.

Anybody remember this, nobody?

Isaac G?

No?

Of course not.

Oh, snap.

I .G. collecting serious Iran.

Poor, poor little Icy G.

You bad.

So sad.

That'll happen.

That won't.

But then, you might know him better by
his preferred name. The Collector.

The Collector?

That poor boy.

Puppy, remember me? Here comes the drum!

Take it easy, Puppy. Come on.

The fake, always the fake.

Now that I've destroyed the rest, next
are your precious feet.

Any last words?

Hey,

Forger!

Let's see how you like it when the
shoe's on the other foot.

Ensign's here.

Maxine?

Hey! These are my brothers.

What did you do to him? It's okay.

I'm JB.

I'm Ty's friend.

Wait, wait. My Ty made a friend?

Looks like at least two.

Who did you get?

You can't talk!

Let's give him the laces, old boys.

Nice day.

Huh? You smell like lavender.

And you.

You look... I mean, you're full of...
Scuff, nick, gum, dog slobber.

Badger of honor.

You know, Max, you were right. We
weren't meant for a bob.

Well, look at you.

So, how about a little midnight madness?

I'm game if you are.

Well, in that case...

Thanks for you.

Hey, they were never mine, no.

Thanks, JB.

All right, everyone.

It's time.

You first, Max.

Wait up, guys.

You're not coming?

Nah, I'm good.

Been here too long.

I wouldn't even know what to do out
there on my own.

But you won't be alone.

You'll have fun.

But you know how it is.

Without your other half.

Whoa! What you doing, girl?

You done lost your mind?

Oh, Spike?

That you?

JB?

Oh, man, you got old.

Old? Who you calling old?

O -L -D.

Old. I'm not the one with the creases.

Honestly, I never thought I'd see you
again.

Been in that box for a hot minute, ain't
you?

Mercy, mercy.

Max! They're heading back to the car. We
gotta go.

I hear you, boy.

Real baller.

Well, you know what they say.

Real recognize real.

Nah, not me, kid.

Just another fake.

What are you talking about?

A missed dunk?

Don't you hear him?

So how they look?

Like the future, dear.

Like the future.

There you go, dude.

Cause I'm ballin', I was layin' up
gettin' racks And I'm on it, I was up,

I'm in, stop it

Back to the topic for everybody that's
watching. Let me make it clear so

here is forgotten.

For some people, it seems it only
happens in dreams. Put on a pair of

you can do anything.

Because sneakers have a life of their
own that never ends. As soon as you

they do, another story begins. Like our
friend who bought a ticket hoping to win

the most beautiful sneaks ever so that
he can play in. They happened to call

number. He was happy and then started
saying everything that we've been saying

again. Like, keep it real now.

My sneaks can do anything when I say
anything.

I got it out of the street. I keep on
hunting rats inside my Jeep. I remember

getting them all with the whole team.
Now I can't get the call because I'm

mauling. I was waking up getting rats in
the morning.

I was getting them with me. All this is
I know my body got me drinking.

If I got up on them, I'm going to drink
with them. I run that rack up with my

queen.

Thank you.

Me and my dogs be walkin' in.

Camera's flat, we walkin' in.

Look like cats, we walkin' in. You don't
have these kicks, I'm walkin' in. Me

and my dogs be walkin' in.

Camera's flashed, he's walkin' in. Look
like Cassie's walkin' in. You don't have

these kicks, I'm walkin' in.

Keep it real or keep it over there. If
I'm on one, I'll never play fair. Now we

can't kick it, these kicks too rare. Why
all you bums wanna get in my pair? Get

up with me, get up with me, get up with
me, my dog.

Get up with me, get up with me, get up
with me, your dog.

I'm tone setter, I'm go -getter. They'll
never try me, they know better. He

tried it once, but yeah, can't correct
it. I'm the only one that's a man

collector. That's get it, get it, for
the bread. Get it, get it, for the

Get it, get it, for the bread. Get it,
get it, get it, get it. Did it? Me and

dog be walking in.

Camera's flat, we walking in. Look like
cats be walking in. You don't have these

kicks, I'm walking in. Me and my dog be
walking in.

Camera's flat, we walking in.

Look like cats be walking in. You don't
have these kicks, I'm walking in. Hold

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. You
ain't got these, homie. You ain't got

these, homie. You ain't got these,
homie. My heat stay on me. I said, you

got these, homie. You ain't got these,
homie. You ain't got these, homie.

My heat stay on me.

It's in your closet, not enough, boy. I
get bread, then stock it up, boy. I

stock X, you shop there, boy. It's a
whole lot of levels to the top there,

If you not gang, you out there, boy. I

my feed is a lot there, boy. Me and my

dogs be walking in.

We'll see you next time.

Talk about it like you really know. Who

the know. Got a bag and a deal, blowin'
smoke and it shows. You can call me by

my name.
