(sirens blaring)

- So what all you been up to today?

- Oh, typical day.

I went and seen my cousins.

- Yeah?

What they up to?

- Going at it again, same old thing.

Sean's mad at Will 'cause he's
spending money like crazy.

They've always been so different.

When my mom died, my dad sent
me to live with their mom.

That's my mom's older sister.

I don't know if I ever told you that,

but we grew up really close, so.

I'm only a few years older than Sean.

- Yeah?

- [Maria] Yeah.

- Got something for you.

- Why you always doin' this to me?

- 'Cause you my lady.

You're the one I'm gonna get married to.

I'm supposed to spoil to you
the best way that I know how.

- Aw.

Oh my gosh.

Baby, it's beautiful!

- It's not as beautiful as you.

(chuckling)

Used to be my grandma's.

She gave it to me before she
passed when I was like, 10.

- Yeah?

- She said it would
always protect me, so...

Now it's gonna protect you.

- Baby, why are you giving it to me, then?

I have you to protect me.

- Yeah, you will always
have me to protect you.

- Aw, okay look.

Why don't you hang on to
it, because I have you.

I wanna know that you're safe,

and if you have it, I'll know.

You keep it.

- Think I can live with that.

Think I can live with that.

- Okay, but, you know,

you could show me how
you're gonna protect me,

just one more time.

- Oh, you're just such the freak.

(chuckling)

Mmm, mmm, mmm.

Listen.

- What?

- How 'bout this?

I'm gonna go to work.

I'm gonna make sure I
don't come back too late.

When I get back...

- Yeah?

- I'm gonna do everything
that you tell me to do.

- Promise?

- I got you.

(laughing)

But, in the meantime, don't
you have some studying to do?

- I do.

- Can't be a doctor--
- I am now, kind of,

but I'm kind of, you're an asshole.

- But you can't be a doctor
if you flunking your classes.

- Okay fine, have it your own way, then.

Have it your own way.

I love you.

- Love you, too.

- [Maria] Be careful.

- Oh.

(laughing)

- [Radio Announcer]
Fighting broke out overnight

between rival factions along
the Israeli Syrian border.

Initial reports claim Israeli jet fighters

bombed a guerrilla base,
killing at least 49 soldiers

and 13 civilians.

Damage to the base is said to be heavy

and the Israeli jets are
reported to have made it

back to their headquarters safely.

A 49 year-old unidentified
man went berserk last night--

- Baby, where you at?

It's so late.

Call me back.

(tense music)

- [Radio Announcer] Police
have a suspect in custody,

but are not releasing any information

until they complete their investigation.

A government...

(tense music)

- Where is he?

(doorbell ringing)

(tense music)

(gasping)

(weeping)

Oh, God, oh my.

(melancholy music)

- Yo, this is fucked up.

- Yeah, I know.

What's up, cuz?

You all right?

I mean, I know you're not good, but,

under the circumstances are you good?

- No, she not good.

Someone just murdered her man.

Shit, we ain't good, either.

To find out who did this shit.

- Who did he have problems with?

Did he have problems with anybody?

- Come on, you know if you makin' money,

you got problems with everybody.

Or should I say, everybody
got problems with you.

- Okay well, did he owe anybody?

- Huh unh.

That wasn't Mike's style.

See, if he owed you, he paid you.

Square business.

He always said there's two
things you don't mess with:

a man's money and women,

and they don't have to be in that order.

- Okay, see that's what I don't get.

He didn't have problems with anybody.

He didn't owe nobody.

So then, why would
somebody do this to him?

He was all I had.

- I know cuz, but you still got us.

(tense music)

- I see your pops here.

What'd he want?

- Who knows?

I'm sure he has his own reason,

just like everybody else here does.

But it damn sure ain't to support me.

(sighing)

- Well look, I hate to get
outta here, but I got a class.

- Class?

(laughing)

You hear that?

This boy makin' 50,000 a week,

talking 'bout going to class.

- Yes, because I don't
plan on doing this forever.

I mean, this is not my end game, big bro.

This is just a stepping stone.

- Point is, you makin' more money

than all the damn teachers at the school.

So this little end game
ain't all that bad.

- Yeah, but this end game
comes with one hell of a cost.

And one of our closest
friends just paid that price.

Look, my teachers,

they wives is not worried
about if they husband's

coming home at night for dinner.

- Whatever, man.

Hey, did you ask her?

- Man, it's not the time.

- Ask me what?

- Look cuz, just mourn your
loss and we'll talk about it--

- Man, forget that.

What you wanna do with Mike's work, here?

You need us to move it for you?

We just had a shipment come in and I know

you gonna need help
movin' that much weight.

- Man, what the hell is wrong with you?

Man, you don't care about nothin', do you?

- Man, I care enough to ask.

She gonna need the money.

- I do not know what
he does with his stuff.

I don't know.

- What do you mean, you don't know?

- I don't know.

He never told me.

He never put me in that world.

Our life was this house and us, that's it.

I'll be right back.

- You all right?

Man, you should have never asked her that.

This is not the time.

- When is the right time?

What?

- I gotta go.

- That's what I thought.

(knocking)
(water rushing)

- Who is it?

- It's me, Ella.

- Gimme a second.

I guess everybody here wants your money.

Too bad you didn't leave any.

Why'd you have to leave me like this?

Okay, get a grip.

Get it together.

- You okay?

You need anything?

- No, I'm fine.

- [Man] Sorry for your loss.

- [Maria] Thank you.

- [Ella] Did my son leave me anything?

- Anything like what?

- [Ella] You know he made a lot of money.

I know this place was paid for.

(laughing)

- I don't what your son left,
but he didn't leave it here.

- You know this place
is in my name, right?

- [Maria] So what's your point?

- My point is, I'm gonna
need a place to live

since you don't wanna
share what my son left us.

- You are so sick.

Your son hasn't even
been dead two full weeks

and you're asking me what he left for you?

You never showed up here to see us.

You never called to say hi.

Oh, you called all right, but
when you wanted something.

Not needed it, but wanted.

You want me out, that's fine.

You can have this place.

I'll be out in a month.

- Make it a week.

- Oh, you are so lucky you're his mother.

That is the only thing keeping me

from punching you in the face right now.

- Who the fuck you think
you talking to right now?

- I'm talking to your
mother bitch, and you, too.

- [Man] Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

- [Woman] Get off my cousin, bitch.

(tense music)

- Let me go.

Get out of my way, Pop.

(tense music)

- What are you gonna do?

Kill that man's mama and his sister?

What are you gonna do?

- That's exactly what I'm gonna do.

Get outta my way.

- [Pop] You done lost your damn mind.

- No, I lost my man, and
you and your daughter

are about to lose more than that

if you don't get the fuck outta my house.

- [Woman] Let's go.

- Maria, give me the goddamn gun.

Give me the gun, Maria.

- Hell, yeah.

Man, I don't need them niggers.

They need us.

- Mo, bruh, (mumbling)
that's a long time ago,

like you don't know that.

- So how was your date with Carl?

- Date?

Girl, wasn't hardly a date.

All he did was talk about
hisself the entire night.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Betcha he couldn't even remember my name,

but he could tell you how
many asses walked by him.

- He was not checkin' out
other women on your first date.

- Absolutely.

Probably could tell ya
all the shapes and sizes.

(train clacking)

- Man, you gotta come down on the prices

with that next shipment, man.

You and your brother killin' me, man,

charging me top dollar like
I ain't made y'all millions.

- I would have politely
excused myself to the restroom

and disappeared on that jerk.

- Yeah.

I thought about it, but
I haven't been on a date

in so long, you know that,

so, I was just hopin' it didn't get worse.

- I have a right to
complain, as much money

as I done made y'all.

I should be the only person in this city

pushing this product.

This arrangement is not cuttin' it for me.

- That is the reason why
women date younger men.

You can train them to be
whoever you want them to be.

(mumbling)

- Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.

- Do me like that?

- Naw, you did that.

(gunshot blasting)

- Then they do it, girl.

Girl, they be barking.

- Yeah, then you gotta play they mom.

I'm not trying to play nobody's mom.

- [Woman] I ain't playing nobody's mama.

fucker was talking crazy.

But that price sound all right to me.

But first I need you to
get rid of that body.

You'll be contacted where
to pick up your work.

(train clacking)

- [Will] What's going on?

- [Maria] What took you so long?

- 'Sup, bro?

- You always got us waitin' on you.

- That's because I'm the
only one that be working.

You acting all busy with school and cuz,

you ain't got your mother
fucking hands dirty in years.

- I get my hands dirty every
time I go meet the connect,

so don't act like we don't be
puttin' in work just like you.

You handle distribution,
Sean handles gettin' it here,

and I handle the plug, all right?

You wanna do my job, cuz, then feel free,

but one slip up and they gonna kill you

and anybody they think you love.

My life is the one on the line, all right,

not yours if a shipment gets fucked up.

- Okay.

It's not that serious.

I'm just playin' with you.

- Well maybe everybody's not
always in a playin' mood, bro.

So, what's up, man?

What you got us here for?

- Well, we got a new distro named Mo.

C, no longer with us.

- What you mean by that?

- Found a new connect.

Basically, he informed me
that he would no longer

need us, but he gonna keep
the property we gave him.

- You gotta be shittin' me?

- No, no shit.

But his right hand man, Mo, told me

weeks ago he was messin'
with this mother fucker.

They offer him more
work at a better price.

- And what price is that?

- Shit, who knows?

All I know is I wasn't
givin' him our blocks.

Them mother fuckers been
cuttin' into our people lately,

and I think they want us to come at 'em.

- Yeah,

so what do you suggest we do, huh?

Look, bro, 'cause I'm done
with this after I graduate.

You and Maria got enough money
to last y'all a lifetime.

Do we really need these problems?

Come on, bro, we had a great run.

- Great run?

Nigger, don't count my
mother fucking pockets.

I'm not counting yours.

I'm not done when you graduate.

You're gonna be done, but I'm on this

mother fucking plane
'til the wings fall off.

- Come on, guys, calm down.

Look, Sean, we can't
let nobody come in here

and take what we worked
so hard for, all right?

Will, find out who these
new mother fuckers are.

Get some of our people
to take care of 'em.

- It makes no sense for us to do anything.

Look, our people not just gonna stop

fucking with us just because.

Our product is way too good,

and they not gonna find nobody else

to give 'em the prices that we givin' 'em.

- Look, but I'm sayin' let's handle them

before they handle us.

- That's all I'm saying, see?

- Yeah whatever, man.

It's my last go-around.

Like I said, I'm done.

- You keep sayin' that silly-ass shit.

I mean, what you plannin'
on doin', college boy?

Nigger, you's a mother
fuckin' drug dealer.

That's all you gonna be.

- And that's why we here now.

Your kids'll never want for
anything because of us three.

We good.

- Yeah, but all the money in
the mother fuckin' world's

not gonna stop somebody
that try to kill us,

to take what we have?

Hell no!

Ain't nobody gonna take a
mother fuckin' thing from me.

Nobody!

- Calm down.

We can worry about who's
leavin' and stayin' later.

- It won't be a later.

If he don't stop actin' like

we can just stop supplyin' our people.

Understand that this mother
fuckin' shit is for life.

Our life.

The moment we stop we
gonna have to fuckin'

move away from here.

Instantly it's gonna be a
target on us like never before.

- Maybe movin' ain't such a bad idea.

- Maybe.

Maybe not.

Only time can tell.

(tense music)

- Goddamn, how long these
mother fuckers gonna take, dog?

- Man, they comin' dog, calm down.

Everything can't be rushed.

- Yeah, but everything can't

take a lifetime, either, Patrick.

Now these mother fuckers
don't wanna take our package?

Then they ain't movin' nothin', my dog.

As far as that old-ass nigger, Will,

man, he been runnin' around the city

like he own it for years.

Don't you think it's about time

we step up to the plate, dog?

- (mumbling) my brother.

Come on man, you gotta think.

Think.

He only one piece to the puzzle, dog.

He ain't been out here
this long being weak.

- I'll tell you one thing, though.

It's a mother fuckin' war they want,

then it's a mother fuckin'
war we gonna give 'em.

- [Patrick] Well, this
where it all start, bro.

- [Cisco] Let's get it.

- Take that shit off him, bro.

- [Cisco] Hello.

- Man, what the fuck
goin' on in here, dog?

(laughing)

- Calm down, man, calm down.

Everything gonna be just fine, all right?

- If I was gonna be
fine, then what the fuck

you got me in here for then?

- I'll tell you what, hold up.

(tense music)

So I can make you a offer.

- I listen a whole lot better

when I'm not thrown in the trunk of a car

with a fuckin' pillowcase
over my head, my nigger.

- Listen here, nigger.

What I'm gettin' ready to say to you,

I need you to pay close
attention to me, you understand?

'Cause what I'm gettin'
ready to say to you

is very important to every
man standin' here today.

- And who the fuck is y'all, man?

- Me?

I go by the name of Cisco
and this model-looking

mother fucker right here happens to be

my right hand man, Patrick.

And you sir,

you happen to work for a
guy named Mr. Will, right?

- Naw, I don't work for nobody.

I'm my own boss.

- I'm my own boss.

(laughing)

So, basically, what you sayin' is,

what I'm sayin' to you
is correct, then, right?

- [Jay] Correct, nigger.

(laughing)

- All right man, I'll tell you what.

Check this out.

(tense music)

Ah!

You see this right here?

Look at it, mother fucker!

Do you see this right here?

- Yeah, man.

- Well, I'll tell you what.

I want you to start movin' this for me.

- What the fuck is that?

- The same thing you move for Will,

you stupid mother fucker!

- Man, I don't move shit
for no Will, my nigger.

- All right, I'll tell you what.

This how we gonna do this shit.

'Cause I see you think I'm playin'

a mother fuckin' game with you.

So, I see you didn't take me serious

when I said what I had to say
to you was very important.

Hey, go grab them, man.

Well, Pat, you got me
back in this shit again.

(tense music)

Goddamn, man, what the
fuck takin' so long?

Fuck!

- [Lauren] Get the fuck up off of me.

Jay?

What the hell is going on and who the fuck

are these people?

- Man, what they doin' here, man?

- [Lauren] Jay!

(laughing)

- Ah!

Now, just imagine this.

Here I am, giving you a
opportunity to make some money,

and what do you tell me?

You tell me to kiss your fuckin' ass!

- Look, dog.

I never said that.

You got my full attention,
although, I get it.

(tense music)

- Well, just too bad I
ain't had your attention

when we grabbed your ass.

See now I can tell from
the look in your eyes,

you ready to listen.

So, I'ma try this shit again.

Now, how many of them did
you say you could move

for me a week?

- Brah, I do 'bout
three, four a week, man.

- Okay, good, now we gettin' somewhere.

- I'm so glad you came to your right mind.

I kinda wish you woulda did it

when he told you how important
this business meetin' was.

- Man, I seen how you got my
brother and my baby mama, man.

You done proved your
little point, now I get it.

- Think I need to show you,

just so you fully understand.

- Look, man.

You ain't gotta show me shit--

(tense music)

- Come on, you two.

Tell Jay where I got you from.

- All right man, look, bro.

Look man, I fucked up all right?

Man, I did.

Ho ain't been seeing him.

(laughing)

- Oh, shit!

- And the truth shall set you free.

Unfortunately, somebody gotta die.

And it gotta be one of y'all,

- Come on, man, please!

(gunshot blasting)

- Damn, hell yeah!

I ain't gonna lie.

I thought you was gonna shoot that nigger.

(laughing)

- I'd never kill my brother over no bitch.

- Thanks man, go lookit.

- [Cisco] Man, look at
this shit right here.

Y'all a little happy family now, huh?

- [Jay] Yeah, but I don't take

that disloyal shit either, nigger.

(gunshot blasting)

- Ooh, shit.

- You might as well go
on ahead and kill me now,

'cause everything I was
livin' for is layin'

right there on that floor, my nigger.

- What about your daughter?

- My daughter died in her
sleep when she was one,

so if you want me to work for you,

I can't even fuck with it.

I'm loyal to the niggers I roll with.

- You sure?

- Very.

(chuckling)

- Say the word, Pat.

- All right, man.
- Say the word, Pat.

- Fuck outta here, but make
sure you tell your boss

he got another week before we move in.

- It's not gonna be that easy, though.

- Wouldn't have it no other way.

- All right then.

(tense music)

- I got this, man.

Don't worry.

We're good.

- Hi baby.

How was school?

- It was okay.

I did good on my test.

- You shoulda did good.

I mean, you studied the whole weekend.

- I know, but I was
still a little nervous.

I don't think my teacher likes me.

- Honey, you're not in
school for the teacher

to like you, okay?

You're there to learn.

She has a degree and
you have to get yours.

- I know, I know.

She sent you a letter about the dance,

but I threw it away.

- Why'd you throw it away
if she sent it to me?

- Because I don't want to go.

It's the Daddy-Daughter
Dance and my daddy is dead.

Why do I have to go?

- Baby, you don't have to go,

but don't throw things away
that are addressed to me, okay?

- Okay, I won't.

- [Maria] Okay.

- How did my dad die?

I heard he was murdered.

- Where'd you hear that from?

- Grandma Ella.

- What else did she say?

- She said my dad was a really nice man

and someone killed him and
she's been sad ever since.

- Well, your dad was a good man.

Actually, he was a great man.

He was the love of my life.

He would have loved you so much.

- How did he die?

- Baby, I don't know.

- Do you think Will can
take me to the dance?

- Will?

My cousin Will?

- Yes.

- Well, we're gonna ask Sean.

- But Will is cooler.

- Well, Sean's way more
responsible, so we're gonna ask him.

- Okay.

Will you get me a new dress?

- Yeah, I will.

We'll have a whole pamper day, okay?

New dress, new shoes,
you'll be a princess.

- I'm a princess every day.

- Of course you are.

- Ma, get up.

Ma, get up.

- What you need?

- I need you to touch this for me.

Hey, I'm gonna give you
a little money, too,

to get you something to eat.

Clean this place up.

- Thank you, baby.

- [Woman] Hey.

- [Sean] Hey.

- What are you doin' later?

You wanna study?

- You know, I'd rather go to dinner.

- That would be nice, but
I gotta finish this work.

You know, not everybody
has a rich mother like you

that pays for their school.

- Yeah, I understand that, but,

you know, a little food
ain't never hurt nobody.

I mean, not that you need anything.

You know you look good.

Just wanna take you to dinner.

- I mean, that would be
nice to actually get out

of the house and spend
some time with a grown up.

I think that's probably
why I like school so much

because I get some adult interaction.

I think my daughters have
been my only date since...

A lot of years.

- Why is that?

- I mean, ever since
their father was murdered,

I haven't really wanted to go out.

- What happened to their father?

- Small time dealer and he owed some guy

a few dollars and he killed him for it.

- Wow.

I'm sorry to hear that.

So, how your little girls take that?

- It's hard.

I mean...

You know, they start asking questions,

some that I can answer,
some that I can't, like,

what's his favorite food
or if he liked sports.

I mean, my oldest one just
asked me the other day

why God took her father,

and I don't know how to answer that.

- Well.

- What got you smilin'?

- Nothin', really.

Actually, my cousin just
asked me if I could take

her daughter to the Daddy Daughter Dance.

- Mmm, well, where's her dad?

- Well, just like your kids,

he was murdered right before she was born.

So, me and my brother kinda just

been there for her ever since, you know?

So, I can kinda understand
what you're going through.

- Wow.

It's so sad that these girls
have to go through this

without the men in their
lives that are supposed

to teach them what real love is all about.

- Yeah, you right about
that in so many ways.

Maybe one day we could change that.

- How?

- I don't know.

How 'bout we talk about it over dinner?

Where you wanna go?

- Why don't you surprise me?

But,

hint.

I like chicken.

(laughing)

- And who don't?

- I'll text you my address.

- Okay, I can't wait.

- Sean.

- What's up?

- Thank you.

- For what?

- Just bein' a total gentleman.

- Look, you don't even have
to thank me for being me.

- That's good to know.

Some of these guys are out here pretending

to be somebody that they're not.

See you tonight.

- Can't wait.

(thudding)

- Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

(grunting)

(mumbling)

- Oh, gee, I'm sorry.
- Sorry.

- Excuse me.

- Let me get out your way.

- No.

You're not in my way.

(chuckling)

I see you here all the time.

Kinda wish you were in my way.

- Really?

- Yeah.

- Well, thank you.

What's your name?

- Patrick.

- Nice to meet you, too.

So, what do you do?

- Man, we got a huge fuckin' problem, man.

- What you mean, we got a problem?

- Man, these niggers just kidnapped me,

Saying y'all are running
the city over with.

- What the hell you mean?

- Man, like I said, bro.

These niggers like to gig

they let me go was to let y'all
know that it ain't bullshit.

And they said we only got a week.

- A week?

Or what?

- Be ready for whatever, my nigger.

- You saying they just let you go?

Man, that don't sound right.

- So I could let y'all know
it was about to pop off.

- They gotta be (mumbling).

- Yeah.

- Man, look, they had my
brother and my baby mama, dog.

They both dead now.

And that's why they let me go.

- So they killed your
brother and your baby mama

and let you go?

- [Jay] I didn't say they killed 'em.

I killed 'em.

- The hell you mean, you killed 'em?

- Man, like I said, dog.

Come to find out they been fucking.

The niggers that kidnapped
me did they little research,

brought 'em to where I was at, then boom.

The shit just got put
on the floor right then.

- So, you killed 'em?

- [Jay] Yes, man.

- You killed your own
brother over a woman?

- Man, hell no.

I killed him 'cause he crossed me

and I don't get down like that.

Y'all should know that shit by now.

I'm loyal to the people I fuck with,

and that's why I'm allowed to
tell y'all we got a problem.

- See what I mean?

Jay, you good?

- Hell naw, but I will be.

- Lemme holler at my brother man.

I'ma talk to you later,
let you know what's up.

- All right.

Just keep me posted, my nigger.

(tense music)

- See?

Niggers want our spot.

- Then let 'em have it, bro.

Look, we too old to be fightin'
over these blocks, man.

I already told you man, I'm done.

- There you go.

You done.

It's easy for you to pick up and go

because nobody knows your face.

You and Maria, y'all been
able to collect a check

while I been out here on the
mother fuckin' front lines.

- Look, we all did our part.

We all did our parts.

Look, I'm sorry that your
face is the one that's known.

But maybe that's a sign, bro.

Maybe that's a sign that

it's time for these new wolves
to take over these streets

and we step back.

- What else we gonna do, Sean?

Start a mother fucking business?

Open up a damn car wash or something?

- Whoa, we got enough money
to do whatever we wanna do.

I can help you figure it out.

Look, bro, this city is ours
to do with as we please.

- I'll think about it, man.

We been on the street, I
don't see that happenin'.

Ain't no nigger gonna take what we worked

so hard to make happen.

- Well, that's up to you, bro.

I already told you, I'm done.

It's time for us to grow.

Hey, how 'bout you let

We can do that.

I'ma text you the address where to come.

- Okay, well how 'bout we meet at a park

and we can eat there?

- I really don't like eatin' outside.

How 'bout you just come to my home?

- I don't know about coming to your house.

I don't really know you.

You could be a serial killer.

- What about this?

How 'bout I rent us a room
and we can just eat there?

- A hotel room?

What kind of woman do you think I am?

I'm not into that.

- Oh my God.

Well, look, I said a hotel room because

it's a public and private place.

So, if you scream, somebody'll hear you.

- Okay, well you know
what, you got a point.

(chuckling)

All right.

- I'ma call you tomorrow.

- Okay, sounds good.

You need me to bring anything?

- Make sure you bring empty stomach.

- Okay, I can do that.

- All right.

I'll send you the address tomorrow, baby.

- Okay, sounds good.

- Bye.

- Bye.

- Got my report card today.

- Yeah boy, your moms told me.

I'm proud of you, boy.

- Thank you.

- Damn, you remind me
so much of your uncle.

- That's crazy.

My mom said I remind her so much of you.

No, said you used to be
real smart back in your day.

- Shit.

Naw, not like Sean.

Sean was more than smart.

He was better than me.

He wanted more out of
life than I ever did.

- Why you don't try to
be more like him then?

- Because I'm me.

I see things a lot
different than most people.

- I think that's why my
mom said I'm more like you.

You know, kids nowadays,

they wanna be doctors and lawyers.

I don't even like school, man.

- Okay, so what do you wanna be?

- I wanna be like you.

Wanna move like you do.

(melancholy music)

- You don't wanna be like me, man.

You wanna be better than me.

So, you gonna have to go to school, man.

That's why I do all I do.

So, you can do what you wanna do.

- Be real, though.

You make more money than
all my friends parents'

and you don't even got to get out the bed

early in the morning.

- That's not--

- That's what I want!

- Naw, that's not good, man.

Do you know what I do?

- Yeah.

'Course.

Everybody know.

- Right.

Well, if you end up doin' this,

that means I didn't do my job.

See, Rob, you're gonna
have to go to school man

and be one of those things
that you don't wanna be.

Or you can open up your own business,

but son, this life is not what you think

it's all cracked up to be.

Shit, man, every day I walk outta my house

and I don't know if I'm gonna return.

That's not the life you want.

You really don't.

- So what makes it good for you, then?

- I never said it was.

It's just all I know.

- And you all I know.

I look up to you.

- Man, you really wanna make me happy?

Get your degree.

I love you, boy.

- I love you, too, Pops.

- You're gonna tell me
later what you wanna be.

- Already did, man.

(tense music)

- Yeah.

So, how is it?

(tense music)

- Hey, Cisco, we got company.

- Guess I'm gonna put you to sleep, mama.

- Mom, how was it?

The fuck going on here?

(tense music)

- [Cisco] Nothing you can handle, my man.

- Mom, Mom!

You hear me talking to you?

Who the fuck are they?

- That's right.

You don't know who I am, do you?

Well, allow me to introduce myself.

I go by the name of Cisco,
and these two right here,

these my homies, and you...

You didn't get my message?

I thought I told him to tell you

you had a week to get the
fuck up out my hood, dog.

- Your hood?

Nigger, this is my mother
fuckin' neighborhood.

(chuckling)

(gunshots blasting)

- Goddamn, nigger, did he hit you?

- I'm good, you know?

- Oh, shit, man.

Come on, let's get the fuck up outta here.

Hey, hey, hold, hold, hold, hold.

(mumbling)

Forgot man.

Gotta make sure this bitch dead, too.

(gunshot blasting)

(faint uptempo music)

- So you know you had me thinking
about you all day, right?

- [Maria] Oh, really?

- Yes.

- Oh, yeah?

- When are you gonna let me work you out?

- Work me out?

- [Patrick] Yeah.

- What do you mean by that?

- I mean, take you to my gym.

- Oh, okay.

Yeah, we could do it there.

- Oh, we can do it?

- Not, we can work out.

(chuckling)

- All right, I got you.

- So, why aren't you married?

- Okay, good question.

I mean, to be honest with
you, I really don't know.

The more I thought about marriage

and walking down the aisle,
the more life got in the way.

The more life got in the way,

the more the thought of
marriage just faded away.

What about you?

Why aren't you married?

- I don't know.

I guess I never been willing
to just give anybody my heart.

Don't get approached a lot.

I just feel like men don't really

want an independent woman.

- It's not that.

Maybe you just come off like
you don't need a man for shit.

And usually, you know,
when a man feels like

he's not needed or wanted, it get ghosts.

- So you're saying I have to need a man

in order for him to want me?

- I'm not sayin' that.

I'm just sayin' that, listen, you can be

an independent woman without screaming it

to the top of your lungs, my baby.

- I'm independent!

- No.

Right,

- [Both] Don't do that.

(chuckling)

- All right, you have a point.

So, you did all of this?

- [Patrick] I did.

- Well, looks great.

- Thank you.

- [Maria] You cooked it?

- I did.

Have a seat, love.

- Thank you.

- [Patrick] You're welcome.

(phone buzzing)

(chuckling)

- By the look of it,
must be a good message.

- It actually was.

(chuckling)

- [Maria] Yeah?

- We just closed on
another couple properties.

- Oh, congratulations.

- Thank you.

- That's something to toast about.

- [Patrick] Yes.

(chuckling)

(tense music)

- Ma!

(gasping)

Bro.

(gurgling)

Bro, who did this, bro?

(stammering)

- Cisco.

- Who the fuck is Cisco?

Who?

Who the fuck is Cisco, bro?

I swear to God, bro.

I can't lose you, too, bro.

Come on, bro.

Let me call somebody.

(tense music)

Yes, yes, can you send somebody?

Send some, send somebody,

don't just eat anybody's food.

- That's good, 'cause I
don't just cook for anybody.

(chuckling)

He'll be fine.

He'll be fine.

- All right, what hospital

(mumbling)

All right, meet me there.

- I can't.

- Why not?

- I can't see my brother die.

I can't see him like that again.

- All right, I'm headed there right now.

- I don't think he gonna make it.

- All right, look, it's
not over 'til it's over.

(tense music)

(sniffling)

(faint uptempo music)

- So, how you doin'?

- Had better days.

Hell, I'm sure everybody has.

What's the doctor sayin'?

- Basically, it's in
God's hands right now.

- You know who did this?

- This guy named Cisco
and his partner, Patrick.

- You know where they're from?

- No, I don't know where they from.

I don't know what made 'em think

they could try us like this.

- Yeah, well look, lemme know if there's

any change in his health, all right?

- [Man] Yo, what time we meetin' tomorrow?

- Oh shit, I don't know.

You gotta ask Pat.

He the one set that shit up.

- Hey, we're gonna need
a lot more work now.

I mean, we done got rid
of all the competition.

- Man, what is you talking about, man?

You act like we all

- It don't matter who you workin' with.

We good now.

- You got that right.

- [Man] What up, Pat?

- What up, dog?

- What's up, fool?

- What's the deal?

Hey, good job, bro.

so he used to give her a morning fix.

But then she told him that she wanted us

- Man, did she hook us up.

Whoo.

- So, where is he now?

(tense music)

- Who, Will?

- Yes, Will.

Where you put his body?

Lemme talk to your uncle.

- Be careful.

- Yeah, I will.

- You promise?

- I promise.

- All right, cool.

- So, what's goin' on?

- Will didn't get in no car accident.

They shot him up and they killed Aunt Bea.

- Maria, I keep telling you,
the streets play for keeps.

- Look, that's why I need
to keep a eye on Michael

for a few days, all right?

We gotta figure out what we gonna do.

- What you mean, you gotta
figure out what you gotta do?

What you need to do is
leave the streets alone.

- We leavin' 'em alone.

They won't leave us alone.

- Look, it took your father a long time

to leave that drug alone
you're out there sellin'

and the worst thing of all,
it took your mother from me.

- Oh my God, I'm not trying
to hear this right now.

- That is a problem right there.

You don't ever want to
talk about anything.

- No, I did wanna talk about it,

but you sent me to live with Aunt Bea.

- I was all messed up.

That drug had me gone.

- Okay, well--

- I ain't know if I was going or coming.

- Well, I was going.

And you wasn't there.

- I am trying my damnedest
to make up for it now.

- You can't change the past.

We in the present, so
the only thing you can do

is be a better grandfather to
that little girl over there

than you was a father to
me and we're straight.

- All right, I can do that.

- All right, cool.

I gotta go.

- Listen, Maria.

Baby, you do know I love you, right?

- I know I needed to hear that.

- Okay.

- But look, before I forget.

She has a daddy daughter dance all right,

- Really?

Of course I can, that's my baby.

The three women work there.

He's sittin' on they ass

I think that's they new spot,

'cause he say they just

Just like what would Jesus do?

We got to think what would Will do

All I know is, the nigger's still alive.

- And how you so sure about that, Jay?

- 'Cause nigger, if he was dead,

You already know that.

- Yeah, you make a point right there.

- Man, come on, man.

(tense music)

- Hello?

spot I told you about.

- Okay, good.

'Bout to head over there now.

- Shit, if you going over there,

I might as well go ahead and
run up in the other crib.

They ain't gonna know what the
fuck they gettin' hit from.

- No, no, don't do that.

I got a better way.

- Man, we need to hit these niggers now.

- We only get one shot at this,

and we gotta plan this shit out.

Something tells me that these dudes

is much more smarter than I think.

They just waitin' us to hit 'em.

- Man, think we need to go in
there and bang these niggers.

I want to get this shit
the fuck over with, bro.

- We will after we find
out more about them.

- All right, man, it's your call.

'Bout to send you the address to the crib.

- Thanks.

- How is he?

- He's very lucky.

Bullets missed his main organs.

- So, is he gonna be all right?

- I believe so.

- Dr. Edwards, thank you so much.

- Don't thank me.

Thank that angel that was with him.

- Now, we had to do a blood
transfusion in surgery.

He lost a lot of blood,
but he's coming out of it.

He's in recovery and you should be able

- You did not let her down.

Your mother knew what
she was doin' was wrong.

(weeping)

- My fault, man.

I was her protector, man.

I was the man of the house.

- She is your mother.

You are not her father.

God made her to protect you,
not the other way around.

- They murdered her.

- No.

She put that needle in her arm.

She knew that what she was taking.

- I don't give a damn!

All of 'em gonna pay.

- I know, but you need to calm down.

You can't get yourself all worked up.

Will.

Will!

Will!

Hold on, Will!

Have a good time at work.

- [Patrick] Thank you.

(tense music)

- I need to get this house together.

Ugh.

- How come you always
clean up around here?

Dad doesn't.

- Baby, everybody's got a job

and my job is to keep this
house and you in order.

- Well, I don't want a job like that.

I want a job like Dad's so I
can tell people what to do.

- I bet you do.

(doorbell ringing)

- I'll get it.

- I got it, babe.

Sit down.

May I help you?

- Is Patrick here?

- No, Patrick isn't home right now.

How can I help you?

(tense music)

- I need to talk to Patrick.

- Well, I'm Patrick's wife

and he's not here, so, just let me know

what it is you need and
maybe I can help you.

- No.

I don't think so.

- Well, you came to my house.

Who are you?

- Don't take this personal.

- [Woman] What are you--

(gunshot blasting)

- [Man] Yeah, though I walk

through the valley of the shadow--

- Make him as sick as me.

- [Man] I will fear no evil, none,

for Thou art with me.

Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me.

(mumbling)

(beeping)

- Sean.

- Hey.

Gonna be all right.

- I don't know.

He was doin' better yesterday than this.

- So, what'd the doctor say?

- He said it's touch and go.

But Will is a fighter.

- Yeah, I already know.

- How are you holding up?

(tense music)

- I'm good, I guess.

Just worried about him.

Can't lose him like this.

- Do you know who did this to him?

- Yeah, I got idea.

Working on taking care of that now.

(tense music)

- I hope you catch him.

- Look, why don't you go
home and take a shower?

I'll sit here with him until you get back.

- I would, but I wanna be the first face

he sees when he wakes up.

- You don't wanna be smellin' bad

when he wakes up, either.

- Shut up, Sean, I'm serious.

- Look, I'm serious, too.

Look, all I'm sayin' is,
you need a break, okay?

And besides, I'm here now.

- Okay.

- Hey, so I'ma have Bear
take you home, all right?

- Why?

I'll be okay.

- I understand that, but I would rather

you take him with you and not need him,

than to not take him with you
and he not be there for you.

Okay?

- Okay.

(beeping)
(sighing)

- Come on, bro.

Gotta be all right.

You all I got left, huh?

Them mother fuckers took Mama, bro.

I can't lose you too, bro.

Look, bro, I know I ain't
been there for you, bro,

like I need to be, but I promise

if you make it through this,

bro, I'd never leave your side.

I understand, bro.

I understand everything now.

(beeping)

(sighing heavily)

Please God, don't take my brother from me.

I need him.

- Look at you.

You are going to be the most
beautiful girl at the dance.

- Thank you.

Is my mom going to make
it before we leave?

- You know, your mom's
gonna do everything she can

to be here, right?

- What do my mom do?

- What you mean, what's your mom do?

- I mean, I heard so much from my cousins.

They say my dad was a big time drug dealer

and my mother took over his drug business

and that's why my
grandmother don't like her

because she never shared
any of the money with them.

- Don't believe what people say.

People make up stuff all
the time, you hear me?

Unless it's coming from the person

they're talking about,
act like it's not true.

Listen, I'ma run upstairs

and finished gettin' dressed, okay?

Come here, baby, come here.

You know I love you.

Come here.

(grunting)

(tense music)

- They killed my best friend?

I'm the one who put y'all together.

Tell you this.

I'm killin' every mother
fucker associated with 'em,

you understand me?

- It had to be Will's brother.

- What?

You sure?

- Who else could it have been, man?

This whole fuckin' team's coppin' from us.

- Yeah, but for how long?

Shit, now they gonna think they can do

whatever the hell they wanna do.

Shit, they done already struck back.

- What make you think that?

Will can't leave the hospital.

- I hope you right about that.

- My home girl that
work over there told me

that dog had a heart attack last night.

- Straight up?

- Yes.

(tense music)

- I guess Mom not going to make it.

- Well, we'll just have to
send her a lot of photos

to make it feel like she was here.

- It's not the same.

- I know, pumpkin.

You know what?

I have an idea.

Give me your phone.

- Why?

- We're about to send her
a thousand photos, come on.

- Okay.

- [Man] Beautiful niece.

- What are you two doin'?

- We were just about to
send you a bunch of photos.

- Aw.

Hi.

- I'm so glad you're here.

How do I look?

- Just like a princess, of course.

Do a spin for me.

Wanna see ya.

Aw.

- Ma?

- [Maria] Hmm?

- What's that on your face?

It looks like blood.

- I don't know.

I'll be right back.

Wanna go see.

Finish taking your pictures.

(tense music)

- [Man] Hey, you okay?

- Yeah, I'm good.

- Where's that blood from?

- I don't know.

I must have cut myself or something.

- You know Dad's worried about you, right?

- Well, he don't have
to be worried about me.

I'm fine.

- How's Will?

- He still ain't out the woods yet.

- How's it lookin'?

- Bro, come on.

- Don't bro me, I'm asking you.

How's it lookin'?

- He ain't lookin' good.

They don't think he's gonna make it.

- I'm sorry about that.

Whatever's meant to be'll be.

- Yeah, you're right.

Now, back to you.

I rushed here to give you these.

Your dad bought them for me.

They were the very first
gift he ever got me,

and now they're yours.

- Thank you so much.

- You're welcome, babe.

Hey, can you run upstairs and get Dad

so they can get outta here?

- Yeah.

- I'ma sit here for a second.

- [Man] Cool.

(squeaking)

- [Patrick] Ready to go?

- Go where?

- I don't know.

I was thinking, maybe your aunt's house.

- Okay, but I don't want
you to leave me there.

- What you mean?

- I don't want you to leave me again.

I don't want anything to happen to you.

- Baby, nothing's gonna happen to me.

- Promise me you won't leave me there.

- I promise.

(sighing heavily)

- Look, cuz, I'm about to start

hitting these streets harder.

No longer will my brother
have to suffer the backlash

of being the face of this team.

- I don't think it's a good idea.

We need to put people in
place so we can move easier.

The less we're seen, the more we can do.

- I understand that, but I'm not about

to sit back and let shit
else happen to my brother.

- So, you're just gonna
give up on your dreams?

You said this was your last summer,

so make it your last summer, Sean.

(tense music)

- But they hit us!

And I can't let that shit ride.

- I'm not sayin' you have to.

But there has to be a better way.

- Well, I'm sure that better
way is out the window now.

They not just gonna stop.

You forgot we hit them?

- They don't know it was you that hit 'em.

- I'm sure they know it was us.

I'm sure they know somebody
from our crew hit them.

- They don't know it's us from the crew.

They don't even know we are the crew.

They think Will messin'
with a street family,

not his real family.

- So you don't think they think it's me?

- I think we plan like they do.

- So, what you thinkin'?

- This is what I'm thinkin'.

- [Woman] Look at her.

- Now what the fuck am I supposed to do?

They came to my home!

- Who are they?

- It had to be Will people.

- Will?

- [Patrick] Yes, Will.

He had the whole city on lock.

- Where is he at, then?

- He in the hospital.

I thought we killed his ass.

- How the hell do you not get that right?

The easiest thing for
a killer to do is kill.

And you mean to tell me you
can't get that shit right?

- I know Von.

Fuck!

And now my wife is dead.

And I don't even know who the fuck did it.

Meanwhile, this nigger's
sittin' in the hospital

about to die and the only
people that been there

to see him is his baby
mama and his brother.

- So kill all of 'em.

That way you kill the right one.

- Kill all of who?

- Anyone that's in his crew!

Kill the whole fucking crew!

- It ain't that easy.

- Yes, it is!

- You got that poor girl murdered.

And look at that
beautiful girl over there.

Her life'll never be the same.

And this shit is all your fault.

You never allow anybody
to touch your family.

You and Cisco, y'all need
to get this shit together.

Now, your uncle is sending a
shipment here in two weeks.

We don't need these problems.

- We gonna to war with a bunch of niggers

and don't even know who the fuck they are.

- Boy, get it together and fix this shit.

Remember what, you were
made for this position.

Remember when you killed Mike?

Huh?

Remember that?

You killed him because he
wanted to stop supplying us.

Hell, you know how many a nigger's

tried to kill that
mother fucker and failed?

But baby, you did it.

You did it.

Now, if you can handle
killin' that nigger,

you can handle anyone.

- That shit was easy.

He trusted us.

This is a whole nother ball game.

You know what?

Mike told me, he said,
"Pat, you never let a nigger

"know where you live."

And I fucked up.

I fucked up!

- Well, do something about it.

- Okay.

- Go ahead and do what you need to do.

I'ma take care of the baby.

- Love y'all.

- Love you.

- Hey, Von.

- Hey, baby.

- [Woman] Hey.

You okay?

- Yeah, I'm okay, but I ain't gonna lie.

I ain't restin' until I
find the mother fucker

who did this shit.

- Y'all need to handle this, okay?

- Okay, I got it.

- Well, looks like you got your wish.

- What are you talking about?

- We ain't leavin'.

- Really?

What changed your mind?

- Will got shot and we don't know

if he's gonna make it.

Michelle wants to take over
the family business, so

looks like we're in.

- That's really good news.

Not about Will, but about you staying.

- [Maria] Look, we need you to understand

that it's about to get really crazy.

- [Man] Well, you've been a smart woman.

I'm sure you'll be able to handle it.

- [Maria] It's already handled.

- Good.

I'll see you in a few days and we can

go from there.

Did you know

you're the first lady I
ever did business with?

- No, I didn't know that.

Mike always said you're the
only white guy we can trust.

I know he made you a lot of money,

but not like the money I'm gonna make you.

- I believe that.

(tense music)

- Hello?

- You all right?

- Yeah, and you?

- I'm all right.

Just had a long ass day.

- What's going on?

- I just lost a close family member.

- Yeah, I lost a lot of
people close to me, too.

- Oh, yeah?

How did you deal with it?

- You never really get over it.

You just learn to deal
with it a lot better.

- Oh, man, I understand that.

Hey but look, I ain't gonna be
able to see you for a while.

- That's cool, I understand.

That's fine.

Patrick, can I ask you something?

- Yeah, baby, you can ask me anything.

- What do you really do for a living?

- What you mean?

- What do you do?

- What's, look, I done
already told you what's up.

Hey, hold on one second.

- Yeah, go ahead.

- Hey, what's up, baby?

- You promised you wouldn't leave me here.

- Dani, listen, I just had to
make a quick run, that's it.

- No, you promised.

Come back.

- All right.

Here I come.

Hello?

- Yeah, I'm here.

- So, what's up with all the questions?

- I just like to know
who I'm dealing with.

- Well look, I been dealing
with a lot of shit today.

- Well, then I guess we both have a lot

going on today, so why
don't you just tell me

what's going on with you?

- Naw, I really don't feel
like talking about it.

- Cool, I understand.

- All right, I'll talk to you later.

- Yeah.
