I was 21 years old

when it dawned on me that my passion for data valuation

and AI ecosystem strategy might actually, if managed,

provide not only solace

but the fiscal power with which to make an impact, which is what I do now.

Impact, no matter the cost.

Our climate demands that, we demand that,

the world demands that.

Is this the, um...

Rodney Kraintz, majority investor in Revitalize.

So it's his game.

Yeah.

I got his name from someone whose brother he killed.

He's convinced Rodney Kraintz is the guy.

Demetrius got into a fight yesterday.

He say why?

Mm-mm.

But maybe he'll talk to you.

If you take him for donuts like you used to.

So you gonna tell me what happened?

Some kids on the street were talking about you.

They were saying you were just another thug.

So you stepped up.

I didn't feel like hearing it.

I appreciate that.

I didn't do it for you.

I thought you were leaving.

Changed my mind, last second.

Why?

I didn't wanna do it without you.

Hey, why don't you go get us the usual, and I'll just hang back, a'ight?

He's not here.

No?

Take a look around.

I already did.

Then you should go.

I'll wait for him to come back.

He's not.

And yet his phone is still here.

He got a new one.

In case someone like you is trying to track him.

Not a good idea.

Where is Demetrius?

Where's your son?

I don't know.

Really?

'Cause his DMs look like you keep a really tight leash.

Is he with his father?

You're clearly not a parent,

if you think I'm gonna tell you shit about where my son is.

No matter what you threaten me with.

I have no reason to hurt your son,

or you, so please don't give me one.

Where is Muncie?

He's probably doing something he thinks is a lot more clever than it actually is.

So then how we gonna do this?

You can either force me to tell you something that's not true,

or...

you can go look for him.

Before the FBI catches up with you

for shooting at them.

Mm.

It's nice chatting with you.

I'll be around, okay?

- Hey, Mom. - Hey, uh, put your dad on.

A'ight.

It's Mom.

I'm here. What's up?

She was just here. She has a gun.

- Uh, just, she's gone now, but... - Okay, we're on our way back.

No! She could still be around.

Okay. I'm not gonna leave you.

No, just listen to me, listen to me. Where are you?

Around the corner. Donut shop on Kingswood.

You and D just get in the car and just drive.

I'll let you know a place to meet up.

All right.

- I... I can drive. - What?

I got my learner's, so you can hide in the back.

It'll... it'll be harder for her to see you that way.

No, that's stupid.

No, no, no. That's good, that's good. Come on. A'ight.

- A'ight. - A'ight.

All right, you're doing great.

Okay.

Mm.

I'mma need you to speed up.

What if we get pulled over?

If you're driving slow, you stand out more.

Hey, uh...

I don't actually have my learner's.

For real?

Yeah, I just said that to help.

Okay. Okay. Good to know.

You think she'll recognize this car?

Okay, I don't want you to panic, but she's right behind us.

Okay?

- Keep going, eyes on the road. - Okay.

All right, we're gonna make a left right up here.

- Right now? - Right now!

This fucking bitch.

Don't call women bitches.

Watch out!

- Oh! - Hold on, you got this!

- Oh shit. - It's them video games.

Fuck!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on.

Holy sh... Holy shit!

Man!

But are you guys okay?

Yeah, we're okay.

Demetrius, you good?

Yeah, yeah, I'm good.

This is insane.

- How did she know where you were at? - No idea.

Maybe we should ditch the phones. Meet at the shop.

What if she put trackers on the cars?

Switch cars too.

Cops will flag you if you try to rent.

I'll figure something out.

Okay, we gotta go. Love you.

Me too.

My boy Polo could help us out.

Polo? Who's Polo?

He stay out in Trenton.

- Okay. All right. He can get us a car? - Yeah, he got all kind of connects.

- Where does he live in Trenton? - Uh, Rowan Houses.

- Projects? - Section 8.

A'ight. Come on.

Trust me.

Polo?

- What's up, man? - Yo!

My nigga!

Hey, yo, just park over there.

Got you.

I'mma get with y'all, yo. Love.

Mmm.

Straight good gas right here.

Car's on its way, man. Don't worry about it.

- Be here in the next five minutes. - Yes, sir.

So, uh... how do you two know each other?

- What, uh, soccer camp? - Mm-hmm.

Yeah, man, soccer camp.

I wasn't very good, though.

You actually were.

Yeah, man.

Should've stuck with it, bruh.

Yeah.

You know how it is, though.

Niggas in the hood say soccer's lame.

Gave me too much shit.

Back then, bruh, I was weak.

You wanna hit this?

Nah, I'm good.

Pshh, I'm cool, bro.

So, uh, you two hang out a lot?

Your pops don't trust me, D?

Think you my dealer or something, man.

Shit, nigga. Well?

No, he's not.

All right.

But, uh...

I found the joints you left me.

You try one?

Shit made me paranoid.

No, man, maybe it's more like...

about the whole situation you're in, you know?

More than the weed.

He seems chill.

Yeah, he's cool.

Your mother know him?

A bit.

I mean, I know it doesn't fit into y'all's plan for me and stuff, but...

What exactly is our plan?

You know, like the whole private school aspirational lifestyle.

I'm playing the game the way it's already set up.

Okay, we send you to that school

so you speak the same language as people with power in this world.

According to you.

According to me and your mother, who knows a little bit better about life.

The result being, you ain't got a lot of friends...

...Dad.

I appreciate it.

All good.

I'll get the other one back to your friend.

Left y'all something in the back in case y'all run into trouble.

Ain't heat, but, you know, beats a knife.

You get stopped, cops can't say shit about it.

- I got it. - Thank you.

You already know.

- Appreciate you. - All right. Stay dangerous.

Fasho.

Oh my God.

Oh, baby.

You hungry?

Isiah has some food in the kitchen.

Yeah. Thank you.

Want some?

I'm good.

A'ight.

He did amazing.

You did good too.

- Hey. - Hey.

Come here.

I was hoping we were through this.

Yeah.

I'm sorry about your FBI friend.

Thank you.

Isiah's working on something to get you out of here.

If not the country, at least a couple states away.

Says he can maybe get all y'all out together,

if that's what you want.

I'm done running.

Fuck.

Status?

We need to bring in other options.

You are the option.

And I am telling you that there is too much heat.

You need to bring in another option.

Otherwise, I'm gone.

Julia.

Listen to me.

You are the very best at what you do, which is why I trust you implicitly.

So work the problem,

and don't become embroiled in the bullshit.

You have two hours.

Didn't you fall off a cliff last time you took on a billionaire?

I jumped off that cliff.

They're just people.

I'll find him.

- Thought you said he likes to stay hid. - I'll go through her.

The woman from the hospital?

How?

I'll figure it out, Kallie.

I'll get her to make a mistake.

You're gonna end up another notch on her belt, Muncie.

Lena!

The police want to arrest him,

the FBI is off the case, and doing nothing isn't an option.

Thank you.

- Doesn't matter what we say anyway. - Let's not do this.

The fuck is that supposed to mean?

Every time I do something, you gonna call it selfish?

It is, when you can't see what you do right now affects the people in this room.

You don't think what your father did affected you?

What he did was choose the wrong fight. You and I know that.

That's true.

Yeah, he thought he knew it all, could fix it all himself, like you now.

- I'm trying to fix one thing. - And you're gonna end up killing one man.

Or getting killed by him.

Both of which happened to your father

because he let his ego and stubbornness take him out.

- Stop talking about him in front of them! - Why?

- It's fine. - They need to hear this!

Your father lost his shit, and you lost him.

Now you doing the same thing to them.

Look at 'em looking at you.

My father

tried to fix the entire system from the outside.

Which broke him.

So I've been trying to...

work it from within.

Using the platform that I have.

But it's true. I guess I... I'm just like him.

On my own.

So, you're right about that.

I am a stubborn motherfucker.

And you all have paid the price.

So what are you gonna do?

You'll figure something out. Right.

Dad, I... I don't think you should do this.

I think we should just sit here.

I understand...

Just do it.

You find her,

she's...

she's gonna...

We got some blue out front.

- Only out front? - Far as we can tell.

If you're gonna go, you need to go.

I'm going with you.

- No. That's not even up for... - Exactly.

No debate.

Like you said, this affects us all.

Isiah?

Your call.

Something happens to her, I'll come after your ass myself.

Hey!

I'mma need that piece back.

You have a son in there...

- I know. - ...that looks up to you.

- I know. - A lot.

You gonna be safe?

Yeah.

Y'all should go.

There he is.

Sorry about that, Burt.

Officer Sturm, how are you?

How's your sister?

She's doing better, Mr. Rollins. I'll tell her you asked.

We're here looking for Muncie Daniels. You seen him or talked to him?

Last thing I need is the city taking my shop as civil forfeiture.

That's not an answer, sir.

The answer is no, he's not here.

Unfortunately, we're gonna have to do a search.

We do have a warrant.

Wasn't here before, ain't here now.

I'll check around back.

Anyone else back there?

Just his ex-wife and their son.

I just wanted to give them a place to be left alone.

Get clear of reporters and conspiracy theorists.

Don't suppose you've seen or spoken to your husband recently?

Ex-husband.

And no.

But I have spoken to police in two different counties and the FBI.

So, like Isiah said, we just came here to get away from talking about it more.

Let's go check the basement.

You stay up here and keep an eye.

You want to come with?

If anything's locked, we'll have to break in to it.

- They gonna find your dad down there? - Can you please not talk to him?

Okay.

They gonna find your ex-husband down there?

We don't have to answer questions.

And I don't have to stop asking them.

When'd you last see him?

What, he got hearing issues?

Your grandmother was an attorney.

One of the first lessons she taught me was, "Don't talk to the police."

Where's your dad?

Where is your dad?

He leave you here?

You ain't gonna answer?

He take off on you?

Yeah.

Yeah.

You don't like that, do you?

All good?

All good.

This officer needs to be reported.

Let's all settle.

Is it clear down there?

Yeah. Basement, garage, upstairs, all clear.

- You got something you wanna say? - We're leaving, Davidson.

You think he's in on it?

The guy you met up with?

I think she's got his phone.

He said there was no smoking gun, but Julia doesn't know that.

What if she's gone dark?

What are you, a super spy now?

The feds are trying to arrest her.

At some point, she'll want to avoid that more than trying to kill you.

Anything from Elena or Dem?

No.

Demetrius will be okay. He's strong.

He's young.

That don't mean weak.

I never understood fathers doubting their sons.

I mean, what... what is that?

Tradition.

Well... for what it's worth, I can see the difference with him,

in how you are versus how you've been.

You've been a dad.

Good, bad.

You've been a dad, which counts.

Thank you.

Yeah.

I never heard you talk about your dad that way.

Or ever, actually.

Did he doubt you?

I don't think he got that far.

He just thought that I'd see his life, his commitment, and I'd be awed, you know?

Mmm.

So I went my own way, you know? I, uh...

I doubted him.

He probably did the best he could.

But I don't think he knew what the fuck he was doing.

Mmm.

You forgive him for that?

Sure.

Maybe the two of you are doing the same thing, you know?

Going the other way.

Doubting your dad.

Mmm.

'Cause you can see...

your dad fucking up.

Isiah's right.

Your mistake is that you think you can do it all yourself.

But it didn't work for your dad,

and it won't for you.

And some kids don't forgive.

There are people who wanna help you, you just gotta ask.

We're here.

It's definitely her.

So it's on, then.

It's on.

All right.

Care for a drink?

You mind if I bring my bag?

You won't need that.

I always need it.

Otherwise, I think I'll pass.

Get out of the fucking car.

How about right there?

Great! Your server will be right with you.

- Thank you. - Enjoy.

Need to call your boss?

No boss.

Oh right. Right.

So I'm here to offer you a deal.

You've been killing people for Rodney Kraintz.

And now the FBI knows your name, what you look like, where you live,

so I don't know why the fuck you're still coming after me.

You make it easy.

Kraintz'll throw you under the bus. You know that, right?

We don't use buses.

Hi, folks. I'm Barry, welcome to Chili's. Uh, what's your poison?

- Two ginger ales. - Two ginger ales. Love it, safe choice.

- And to eat? - Chicken wings.

Uh, anything else?

Our triple dipper's half price till 7:00. Have you had our triple dipper?

It's three boneless chicken wings, three sliders,

two of our Southwestern egg rolls...

None of that.

Great! Two G-ales and one order of wings, coming up.

You may think Kraintz has got your back. He may have even promised it.

But deep inside, you know that he won't.

You know he'll throw you to the wolves the second they're close.

And they're very close, Julia.

Probably right outside.

So, is it the wolves or the buses, Muncie?

Okay, here's my fucking offer.

You and I both go to the FBI.

I explain to them that you shot Special Agent Quiñones in self-defense,

and you explain to them

that Don Sloss killed Simon, Jennings, Stu Magnusson,

and anyone else you took out.

You tell them Don Sloss kept killing for Kraintz, and you tried to stop it.

You turn state witness, you exonerate me,

I corroborate your story, we all go home friends.

Two G-ales.

Do you want straws, no straws?

No straws.

You grew up in Philly, right?

West Philly.

- You? - The north of England.

Sounds nice.

- It's very different from West Philly. - Yeah, they ain't got Black folks there.

We've got Indian.

How's that going for you?

My point is,

you've got no idea what makes me tick.

- I don't give a fuck what makes you tick. - You should if you're offering deals.

Fine.

What makes you tick?

Integrity.

I think maybe you've lost sense of it.

If we're talking about Rodney Kraintz, integrity ain't that.

The integrity of the future that he represents.

He's saving the planet.

We should be fucking thanking him.

What did you do before you became Kraintz's gun?

- Crisis management. - For who?

Various corporate entities.

And before that?

British Naval Intelligence. Till they kicked me out.

Shocker.

This country's off-kilter.

Mine too.

I mean, the conventional self-corrections aren't working.

We need order.

The state of our world requires clarion, unmitigated action.

Hydro, geothermal, and nuclear.

That is what we're achieving.

Boneless wings.

If Kraintz represents a clarion call to action,

and you're in the way of that...

don't you think you're next?

It's you that's next, Muncie.

Cool.

You'll think about it.

Let's go.

Fuck.

Mommy, can I get the triple dipper?

So?

You were right. She left it in the car.

Oh...

- Where the fuck did you find this? - Spare tire well.

This is good. This is real good.

- Leave a message. - Khalil. Muncie Daniels.

I have Julia Jayne's laptop.

If you can hack into it, there's gonna be proof that she framed me.

I also have a voice recording of her talking about working for Rodney Kraintz.

Call me.

You sure you got it?

If we're talking about Rodney Kraintz,

integrity ain't that.

The integrity of the future that he represents. He's saving...

- Yeah. - Oh shit.

We did it. Hold up, hold up.

Be chill, be chill.

You good?

Yeah.

Cool.

Let's get out of here.

How close are we?

Close.

What needs to happen?

I need to force a location from his kid.

And then it'll be done.

But I need time, and I need a guarantee.

If you're forcing it, then do it.

Thirty minutes.

This needs to be over.

Burt.

I need you out back and Clarence out front.

Just keep an eye on things.

No problem.
