00:08:11,416 --> 00:08:12,250
Nah, man.
169
00:08:12,333 --> 00:08:13,333
[police siren wailing]
170
00:08:13,416 --> 00:08:16,625
Aw, hell no.
I can't go to jail in my good hair, y'all.
171
00:08:16,708 --> 00:08:18,416
Aye, yo. Everybody be cool.
172
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,583
[officer] Put your hands up
and get out of the car.
173
00:08:23,708 --> 00:08:24,583
{\an8}Slowly.
174
00:08:24,666 --> 00:08:25,666
[gasping]
175
00:08:27,333 --> 00:08:29,916
[chuckling] Hey, man. I'm ticklish.
176
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,500
Laugh now, cry later, bone thug.
177
00:08:32,583 --> 00:08:34,750
You got anything on you
I should know about?
178
00:08:35,500 --> 00:08:37,791
- Hey, Medgar Evers, help me out here!
- Oh shit!
179
00:08:37,875 --> 00:08:40,416
[chuckling] You're all in trouble now.
180
00:08:40,500 --> 00:08:41,791
Man, we ain't scared.
181
00:08:41,875 --> 00:08:45,083
You wanna get big? Get big then, pig.
[grunts]
182
00:08:45,166 --> 00:08:47,708
Oh, you wanna get clever, huh?
183
00:08:47,791 --> 00:08:49,375
Well, riddle me this.
184
00:08:49,458 --> 00:08:53,333
What's the worst possible duo
for Black gangbangers
185
00:08:53,416 --> 00:08:55,541
when they get pulled over? Huh?
186
00:08:55,625 --> 00:08:58,000
Officer Everlast, come on out here.
187
00:08:58,083 --> 00:09:00,041
Hey, look, they look clean to me.
188
00:09:00,125 --> 00:09:02,916
You gonna pat them down or what?
And why are you whispering?
189
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,166
I'm not whispering.
190
00:09:04,250 --> 00:09:07,666
[clearing throat] I have allergies.
My throat's so dry.
191
00:09:07,750 --> 00:09:10,916
Pollen count must be
at least ten right now.
192
00:09:11,666 --> 00:09:12,875
[exhaling deeply]
193
00:09:12,958 --> 00:09:14,583
[grunting]
194
00:09:14,666 --> 00:09:16,208
Yep, like I said, clean as a whistle.
195
00:09:16,291 --> 00:09:18,916
[clearing throat] Uh, yes, they are clean.
196
00:09:19,708 --> 00:09:21,541
Did I say you could look at me?
197
00:09:21,625 --> 00:09:25,250
I feel a body camera glitch coming on. Ah.
198
00:09:25,333 --> 00:09:27,625
Keep your eyes on the ground,
get back in that car,
199
00:09:27,708 --> 00:09:29,041
and roll over to the projects.
200
00:09:29,125 --> 00:09:30,291
And while you're there,
201
00:09:30,375 --> 00:09:33,875
show some respect to your parents
who raised you to be better than this,
202
00:09:33,958 --> 00:09:36,166
despite all the obstacles
put in front of them.
203
00:09:36,250 --> 00:09:37,458
Wait. How you know where...
204
00:09:37,541 --> 00:09:40,458
Because I'm Santa Claus, motherfucker!
Take this gift and go.
205
00:09:40,541 --> 00:09:41,708
You ain't my daddy.
206
00:09:41,791 --> 00:09:44,958
Man, you are doing the most, J.R.
He's letting us go.
207
00:09:45,041 --> 00:09:46,166
- Come on!
- All right.
208
00:09:46,833 --> 00:09:47,916
[tires screeching]
209
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,500
[dramatic music playing]
210
00:09:53,541 --> 00:09:54,708
[sniffling]
211
00:09:56,416 --> 00:09:58,166
[Grey] Mom, you have to believe me.
212
00:09:58,250 --> 00:10:00,333
I just wanted
to make our neighborhood livable.
213
00:10:00,416 --> 00:10:02,708
Now, white people are biking.
214
00:10:02,791 --> 00:10:03,875
If Whole Foods goes up,
215
00:10:03,958 --> 00:10:06,125
we'll never be able to afford
to live here anymore.
216
00:10:06,208 --> 00:10:08,041
Have you seen how much the nut milk is?
217
00:10:08,125 --> 00:10:11,708
Grey Evans, if they wanted
to take our building from us,
218
00:10:11,791 --> 00:10:13,250
why would they renovate it?
219
00:10:13,333 --> 00:10:16,500
Because white people love renovations.
220
00:10:16,583 --> 00:10:18,583
Haven't you seen
the Home and Gardening Channel?
221
00:10:18,666 --> 00:10:20,541
Now you sound crazy like Peaches,
222
00:10:20,625 --> 00:10:22,916
trying to warn me
that they moving us to Harvey
223
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,208
and we won't ever come back.
224
00:10:24,291 --> 00:10:25,541
[grunting]
225
00:10:26,250 --> 00:10:30,583
Look, all you need to worry about
is not screwing this up for us.
226
00:10:30,666 --> 00:10:34,083
There's no telling where I can go
after being Projects' President!
227
00:10:34,166 --> 00:10:37,958
The future's so bright I got...
Damn it, I lost my sunglasses.
228
00:10:38,791 --> 00:10:39,875
[upbeat music playing]
229
00:10:40,833 --> 00:10:42,666
Oh, there we go. See you later.
230
00:10:48,333 --> 00:10:49,250
Tell me something.
231
00:10:49,333 --> 00:10:52,291
Why you always so quick
to shoot in this community?
232
00:10:52,375 --> 00:10:54,208
You ever see a wounded animal?
233
00:10:54,291 --> 00:10:57,000
Don't you just
wanna put 'em out of their misery?
234
00:10:57,083 --> 00:11:00,958
What I mean is sometimes
a bullet in the shoulder or the kneecap
235
00:11:01,041 --> 00:11:03,375
will put somebody
on the straight and narrow.
236
00:11:03,458 --> 00:11:07,708
See, I don't shoot to kill.
I shoot to change lives.
237
00:11:07,791 --> 00:11:09,166
Now, if they die, well,
238
00:11:09,250 --> 00:11:11,791
that's God's way of telling me
they weren't gonna change.
239
00:11:11,875 --> 00:11:14,625
So, your ass is out here
being the judge and the jury?
240
00:11:14,708 --> 00:11:16,583
If we don't do it, who will?
241
00:11:16,666 --> 00:11:18,208
Uh, maybe a judge and jury?
242
00:11:18,291 --> 00:11:22,291
Yeah, you are so cute,
Evelyn Champagne King.
243
00:11:22,375 --> 00:11:26,791
Sometimes, I just wanna put you
in my pocket and rub you for luck.
244
00:11:28,666 --> 00:11:30,666
[soft music playing]
245
00:11:36,041 --> 00:11:38,083
- Grey! Grey!
- Monroe?
246
00:11:38,666 --> 00:11:39,833
What are you doing here?
247
00:11:39,916 --> 00:11:41,916
Fell off the wagon. Again. Ha.
248
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,000
They wouldn't let me go back.
The neighborhood's all cleaned up.
249
00:11:45,083 --> 00:11:46,958
Yeah. Sorry about that.
250
00:11:47,041 --> 00:11:49,250
Sorry? They gave me
a bus ticket to get here.
251
00:11:49,333 --> 00:11:51,083
I sold it for some rocks and walked.
252
00:11:51,166 --> 00:11:55,250
Now I'm living high on the hog.
Well, high. On pigeon and squirrel.
253
00:11:55,333 --> 00:11:58,250
All I can eat, free-range too. [chuckling]
254
00:12:03,583 --> 00:12:05,083
This is where you prove yourself.
255
00:12:05,166 --> 00:12:07,458
We're gon' see
if you really about that life, J.R.
256
00:12:07,541 --> 00:12:10,375
You need to kill Do-Rag.
257
00:12:10,458 --> 00:12:12,958
Prove myself, huh? A'ight, bet.
258
00:12:13,041 --> 00:12:16,000
You don't need
to murk someone just to prove yourself.
259
00:12:16,083 --> 00:12:19,958
Besides, you proved yourself last night.
And why he have to kill Do-Rag?
260
00:12:20,041 --> 00:12:23,250
'Cause I said so! Why do you care
about Do-Rag so much all of a sudden?
261
00:12:23,333 --> 00:12:26,833
She don't care about Do-Rag.
She in her feelings over J.R.
262
00:12:26,916 --> 00:12:29,875
Yo, she think he too soft to do it.
Just like I do.
263
00:12:29,958 --> 00:12:32,458
Yeah, right. Man, let's go get Do-Rag.
264
00:12:32,541 --> 00:12:33,958
[dramatic music playing]
265
00:12:40,041 --> 00:12:42,458
I can't watch this. Let me out.
266
00:12:44,166 --> 00:12:45,166
Let me out.
267
00:12:46,583 --> 00:12:48,291
I said, let me out.
268
00:12:48,875 --> 00:12:50,125
Man, let her out.
269
00:12:55,916 --> 00:12:57,625
You don't have to do this.
270
00:13:06,291 --> 00:13:07,125
{\an8}What?
271
00:13:07,208 --> 00:13:10,125
{\an8}We need to talk about you-know-who.
It's getting out of control.
272
00:13:10,208 --> 00:13:11,541
{\an8}It's been out of control.
273
00:13:11,625 --> 00:13:12,750
{\an8}We have to do something.
274
00:13:12,833 --> 00:13:15,708
{\an8}No shit. I just don't wanna make Mama cry.
275
00:13:15,791 --> 00:13:18,375
{\an8}Me either, but in the end, it's her fault.
276
00:13:18,458 --> 00:13:21,750
{\an8}Yeah, you right. For giving birth
to you and Junior's sorry ass.
277
00:13:21,833 --> 00:13:22,708
{\an8}Wait. What?
278
00:13:22,791 --> 00:13:25,666
{\an8}You ruined my profit margin
by cleaning up the projects.
279
00:13:25,750 --> 00:13:27,750
{\an8}Even I know that's an oxymoron.
280
00:13:27,833 --> 00:13:29,750
{\an8}And Junior? Junior just got me.
281
00:13:29,833 --> 00:13:33,750
{\an8}And Dalvin don't get got.
Nah, I do the gottin' round here.
282
00:13:33,833 --> 00:13:35,166
{\an8}And both of y'all got it coming.
283
00:13:35,250 --> 00:13:37,166
{\an8}No, you got it wrong.
284
00:13:37,250 --> 00:13:38,958
{\an8}The real problem is Mom.
285
00:13:39,041 --> 00:13:42,000
{\an8}The system got to her,
and now she's helping them get rid of us.
286
00:13:42,083 --> 00:13:44,416
{\an8}We have to figure out
how to show her she's a pawn.
287
00:13:44,500 --> 00:13:47,708
{\an8}Pawn or no pawn, she ain't taking
no bread out of my Pampers.
288
00:13:47,791 --> 00:13:49,291
{\an8}I ain't helping you hurt Ma.
289
00:13:49,375 --> 00:13:52,166
{\an8}Fine, then leave.
I don't like you watching me like that.
290
00:13:52,250 --> 00:13:54,375
Man, you the one that wanted to meet here.
291
00:13:54,458 --> 00:13:56,500
Yeah, I mean,
I thought it'd be a power move.
292
00:13:56,583 --> 00:13:59,166
Could've been without the courtesy flush.
293
00:14:00,291 --> 00:14:01,500
Hi, everyone.
294
00:14:01,583 --> 00:14:05,333
Even though I need no introduction,
[chuckles] I'm Beverly Evans,
295
00:14:05,416 --> 00:14:07,291
president of these projects
296
00:14:07,375 --> 00:14:11,250
and Chicago's new Great Black Hope!
297
00:14:11,916 --> 00:14:13,083
[sparkling tone]
298
00:14:13,166 --> 00:14:14,708
[people cheering, applauding]
299
00:14:15,291 --> 00:14:16,708
- [woman] Beverly!
- [man] Beverly!
300
00:14:16,791 --> 00:14:17,916
[people chanting] Beverly!
301
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,000
[woman] Beverly!
302
00:14:19,041 --> 00:14:20,583
Great job, Beverly.
303
00:14:20,666 --> 00:14:25,250
We can finally get these people
out of here once and for all.
304
00:14:25,333 --> 00:14:27,625
- [woman] Beverly! Beverly!
- Oh, thank you. Thank you!
305
00:14:28,333 --> 00:14:29,958
[woman] Go, Beverly!
306
00:14:32,083 --> 00:14:34,166
- [snoring]
- Donte.
307
00:14:34,250 --> 00:14:36,125
I'm gonna need you to step aside.
308
00:14:36,208 --> 00:14:39,458
Hey, you think you can just walk in here
and tell me what to do?
309
00:14:39,541 --> 00:14:40,916
[Donte] ooh.
310
00:14:41,583 --> 00:14:43,583
[gulping]
311
00:14:44,291 --> 00:14:45,291
Mmm.
312
00:14:46,416 --> 00:14:47,458
You comfortable?
313
00:14:48,291 --> 00:14:52,041
[Beverly] Bev Gardens will feature
a state-of-the-art fitness center and spa,
314
00:14:52,125 --> 00:14:55,000
business center, wine cellar,
high-speed Internet service,
315
00:14:55,083 --> 00:14:57,875
putting green,
valet parking, and movie theater.
316
00:15:02,791 --> 00:15:04,583
[loading tone]
317
00:15:05,291 --> 00:15:06,291
[static tone]
318
00:15:07,791 --> 00:15:09,041
[ominous music playing]
319
00:15:09,125 --> 00:15:12,458
I... I... I didn't approve that picture.
Somebody's about to hear from my lawyer.
320
00:15:12,541 --> 00:15:15,291
[Grey with voice distorter] Beverly Evans
is a tool of the system.
321
00:15:15,375 --> 00:15:20,458
She's promising us all a bright future,
but this is what's really coming to you.
322
00:15:20,541 --> 00:15:22,166
They said it was temporary.
323
00:15:22,250 --> 00:15:25,208
They were just gonna relocate us
out here to Harvey
324
00:15:25,291 --> 00:15:27,250
while they fixed up our building.
325
00:15:27,333 --> 00:15:29,541
But we're still here.
326
00:15:29,625 --> 00:15:32,125
Those are gonna be
some nice new garden apartments
327
00:15:32,208 --> 00:15:33,916
in place of the projects.
328
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,541
[Grey] But they ain't for you and me.
329
00:15:35,625 --> 00:15:39,833
They just using our mama...
I mean, Beverly Evans, as a puppet.
330
00:15:39,916 --> 00:15:40,958
[people clamoring]
331
00:15:45,083 --> 00:15:48,333
Word is Do-Rag is
at some party your mama's throwing.
332
00:15:48,416 --> 00:15:49,708
[rambling]
333
00:15:49,791 --> 00:15:54,166
Say less. Once this thing is done,
we need to talk about leadership, *****.
334
00:15:54,250 --> 00:15:55,958
What kind of leadership, *****?
335
00:15:56,041 --> 00:15:58,458
The leadership where I lead,
and you follow.
336
00:15:58,541 --> 00:15:59,750
[dramatic music playing]
337
00:16:00,416 --> 00:16:02,166
Hmm. I don't like that.
338
00:16:02,250 --> 00:16:05,375
After he do Do-Rag, you do him.
339
00:16:05,458 --> 00:16:06,583
Done.
340
00:16:06,666 --> 00:16:08,333
Don't get fooled like me.
341
00:16:08,416 --> 00:16:11,958
Stay where you are,
or this is where you'll end up.
342
00:16:12,041 --> 00:16:13,750
[people shouting, moaning]
343
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,041
No, no, people That's fake news.
344
00:16:17,125 --> 00:16:19,208
Fake news! It's lies.
345
00:16:19,958 --> 00:16:21,250
[all booing]
346
00:16:21,333 --> 00:16:24,125
Oh. Oh, I see. Y'all booing Bev, huh?
347
00:16:24,208 --> 00:16:25,125
You booing Bev?
348
00:16:25,208 --> 00:16:28,041
Well, I'm taking names
on all of you bitches.
349
00:16:28,125 --> 00:16:32,416
You think you can boo me?
You think you can do this to me?
350
00:16:32,500 --> 00:16:35,750
I run this! You just live here.
351
00:16:35,833 --> 00:16:38,166
Go on. Go on and walk away.
352
00:16:39,208 --> 00:16:41,375
[Beverly grunting, growling]
353
00:16:41,458 --> 00:16:43,791
- Now, where's my daughter?
- Let's get out of here.
354
00:16:43,875 --> 00:16:46,000
I don't like to see
how the sausage is made.
355
00:16:46,083 --> 00:16:48,458
I'm calling
all available units to the projects.
356
00:16:48,541 --> 00:16:52,708
[Chief] Proceed with extreme prejudice.
You know, like usual.
357
00:16:52,791 --> 00:16:55,375
- You keep the change. That's for you.
- You didn't pay me.
358
00:16:55,458 --> 00:16:57,041
Oh, good. Good, then we're even.
359
00:16:57,125 --> 00:16:59,958
Didn't you hear the chief?
All available units.
360
00:17:00,041 --> 00:17:01,791
We don't know he meant us too.
361
00:17:01,875 --> 00:17:06,041
[Chief] When I say all units,
I mean all units. I'm not fucking around.
362
00:17:06,625 --> 00:17:08,500
What are you doing?
363
00:17:08,583 --> 00:17:12,541
This is our chance
to crack some skulls! Let's go, go, go!
364
00:17:12,625 --> 00:17:15,208
We're maintaining the perimeter
like we always do.
365
00:17:15,291 --> 00:17:17,208
Besides, you see me eating?
366
00:17:18,583 --> 00:17:20,000
Junior!
367
00:17:20,083 --> 00:17:22,083
We don't have time for this. Let's go!
368
00:17:25,291 --> 00:17:27,416
- [people shouting]
- [glass shattering]
369
00:17:27,500 --> 00:17:30,500
Aye, yo, that's Do-Rag right there.
370
00:17:30,583 --> 00:17:32,083
Except when I'm done with him,
371
00:17:32,166 --> 00:17:34,375
he gon' have
to change his name to "Done-Rag."
372
00:17:36,708 --> 00:17:38,166
*****, I'm still work shopping it.
373
00:17:39,750 --> 00:17:41,416
What are you doing? Get out of my way.
374
00:17:41,500 --> 00:17:43,750
If you doing this for me,
you need to stop.
375
00:17:43,833 --> 00:17:47,250
I'm only attracted to guys
who are about to kill, not real killers.
376
00:17:47,333 --> 00:17:48,666
Nah, I gotta finish him.
377
00:17:48,750 --> 00:17:51,333
I wanna take over this gang
and be the one in charge.
378
00:17:51,416 --> 00:17:52,458
Come on, Junior.
379
00:17:52,541 --> 00:17:55,166
I told you stop calling me that. It's J.R.
380
00:17:55,250 --> 00:17:56,875
I'm talking to Junior.
381
00:17:57,375 --> 00:17:59,375
You were meant for more than this.
382
00:17:59,458 --> 00:18:00,916
[soft music playing]
383
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,416
Flan girl, please.
384
00:18:02,500 --> 00:18:05,166
I'm finally getting
the respect I deserve in these streets.
385
00:18:05,250 --> 00:18:06,416
I'm good.
386
00:18:07,333 --> 00:18:09,041
[music intensifies]
387
00:18:10,875 --> 00:18:12,791
[people shouting]
388
00:18:18,375 --> 00:18:20,500
Jazz! You made signs?
389
00:18:20,583 --> 00:18:24,375
You said you was doing a protest.
What's a protest without signs?
390
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,833
Nobody's ever done
anything this nice for me before.
391
00:18:27,916 --> 00:18:29,750
You act like you never had friends before.
392
00:18:31,041 --> 00:18:32,041
Because I haven't.
393
00:18:32,458 --> 00:18:33,875
Don't tell nobody else that.
394
00:18:33,958 --> 00:18:37,333
We got secrets too?
This is the best day of my life!
395
00:18:37,416 --> 00:18:40,083
Grey LaVaughn Evans!
396
00:18:40,166 --> 00:18:42,375
Get your ass over here right now.
397
00:18:42,458 --> 00:18:45,166
You told these people to hate me.
398
00:18:45,250 --> 00:18:48,041
All my life I had to fight.
399
00:18:48,125 --> 00:18:50,458
Now I gotta fight my child too?
400
00:18:50,541 --> 00:18:52,000
- Ma...
- Don't "Ma" me.
401
00:18:52,083 --> 00:18:53,291
Square up.
402
00:18:53,375 --> 00:18:56,458
Ma, no. I'm trying
to stop the system from using you.
403
00:18:56,541 --> 00:18:58,541
By killing my career?
404
00:18:58,625 --> 00:18:59,458
[gasping]
405
00:18:59,541 --> 00:19:02,000
Why is your brother
hanging out with those boys?
406
00:19:02,083 --> 00:19:03,958
People are gonna think he's in a gang.
407
00:19:04,041 --> 00:19:06,458
Junior is in a gang.
408
00:19:06,541 --> 00:19:07,750
I can't believe it.
409
00:19:07,833 --> 00:19:11,833
I turn my back for a minute
and just like that my son is in a gang,
410
00:19:11,916 --> 00:19:13,666
and my daughter is a traitor.
411
00:19:13,750 --> 00:19:14,750
And Dad's a pig.
412
00:19:14,791 --> 00:19:16,541
Enough with the disrespect, Grey.
413
00:19:16,625 --> 00:19:18,750
Not everyone is blessed
with a high metabolism.
414
00:19:18,833 --> 00:19:20,791
And you know
your father likes his pastries.
415
00:19:20,875 --> 00:19:22,041
No.
416
00:19:22,125 --> 00:19:23,541
I mean, Dad is a cop.
417
00:19:23,625 --> 00:19:26,708
Five-0. Twelve. Popo. A pig.
418
00:19:26,791 --> 00:19:28,458
[grunting]
419
00:19:30,208 --> 00:19:34,208
What is going on? Is it crack?
Is it crack y'all smoking?
420
00:19:34,291 --> 00:19:37,416
Us? You're the one
selling your soul for a hit of fame.
421
00:19:37,500 --> 00:19:38,666
Respectfully.
422
00:19:38,750 --> 00:19:41,916
Donte. Time for Operation Cold Hard Truth.
423
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,083
Let's hope it works.
424
00:19:43,666 --> 00:19:44,833
[static tone]
425
00:19:44,916 --> 00:19:48,708
We need a change, y'all.
That change is me.
426
00:19:48,791 --> 00:19:51,375
I'll never let you down.
427
00:19:51,458 --> 00:19:54,333
Vote Beverly Evans!
428
00:19:54,416 --> 00:19:57,416
[gasping] Look how young I looked.
429
00:19:57,500 --> 00:20:00,416
Don't you see, Ma? The system got to you.
430
00:20:00,500 --> 00:20:01,916
Like it was designed to.
431
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,250
The old... Well, younger-ish you,
432
00:20:04,333 --> 00:20:07,083
would've never let All Whitemen
convince her to turn her back
433
00:20:07,166 --> 00:20:09,708
on her residence
just to have a building in her name.
434
00:20:09,791 --> 00:20:12,500
Mom, you were supposed to be the hope.
435
00:20:12,583 --> 00:20:14,750
You're right. I gotta go fix this.
436
00:20:16,958 --> 00:20:19,750
Everybody. Hey! Hey!
Can I have your attention, please?
437
00:20:20,708 --> 00:20:23,250
Hey. Everybody, quiet down.
438
00:20:23,875 --> 00:20:25,625
Oh, look! Free Popeyes sandwiches!
439
00:20:25,708 --> 00:20:27,583
- Free?
- [woman] Yeah! All right!
440
00:20:27,666 --> 00:20:29,791
[Beverly] I knew that would work.
441
00:20:29,875 --> 00:20:32,208
Now, look. I know y'all hate me.
442
00:20:32,291 --> 00:20:35,125
And seeing that speech
and what I've done here today,
443
00:20:35,208 --> 00:20:36,708
I understand why.
444
00:20:37,416 --> 00:20:41,458
But I'm here to say,
we ain't going nowhere, you hear me?
445
00:20:41,541 --> 00:20:42,541
I was wrong.
446
00:20:42,583 --> 00:20:45,916
And they may have the land,
but we got the view.
447
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,250
And we're not giving it up!
448
00:20:47,333 --> 00:20:50,250
So, goodbye to Bev Gardens!
449
00:20:50,333 --> 00:20:51,833
[woman] Yeah! All right!
450
00:20:51,916 --> 00:20:53,458
[people cheering, applauding]
451
00:20:55,250 --> 00:20:56,416
[ominous music playing]
452
00:20:57,291 --> 00:20:58,291
Hey, Do-Rag.
453
00:20:59,083 --> 00:21:01,791
Hey, come on now.
You ain't gotta do that, man.
454
00:21:01,875 --> 00:21:04,166
It's enough for everybody.
What's your size?
455
00:21:04,250 --> 00:21:07,625
Oh, what size am I? What size am I?
Nine. Tec-9!
456
00:21:07,708 --> 00:21:09,208
Okay. Shit.
457
00:21:10,958 --> 00:21:13,583
Damn! I should've peed before I got here.
458
00:21:15,666 --> 00:21:17,626
[Smooche] This hurts me
as much as it'll hurt you,
459
00:21:17,708 --> 00:21:19,541
but you wouldn't listen.
460
00:21:19,625 --> 00:21:21,666
So, I gotta stop you
from hurting yourself.
461
00:21:22,291 --> 00:21:24,750
Please, God,
don't let me hit him in the dick.
462
00:21:24,833 --> 00:21:27,250
Come on, man. Please.
Please don't shoot me.
463
00:21:27,333 --> 00:21:30,000
Can I put 'em on and post these joints,
so folks know I had 'em?
464
00:21:30,083 --> 00:21:31,916
Please! Okay, nah. I'm playing.
465
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,083
Please! Please don't shoot me, *****.
466
00:21:34,166 --> 00:21:36,000
[Reggie panting]
467
00:21:38,125 --> 00:21:40,000
There's a pig blocking my shot.
468
00:21:40,583 --> 00:21:43,833
Wait. Man, I know that big ol' ass.
469
00:21:43,916 --> 00:21:46,375
Junior! What in the hell are you doing?
470
00:21:46,458 --> 00:21:47,833
Reggie, not right now.
471
00:21:47,916 --> 00:21:50,375
Reggie? Boy, I am your father.
472
00:21:50,458 --> 00:21:53,208
Oh shit.
Your pops is twelve and you in a gang?
473
00:21:53,291 --> 00:21:56,458
- Dinner must be awkward as fuck.
- Man, shut your ass up.
474
00:21:56,541 --> 00:22:01,375
Junior, you put that gun down right now.
Your gangbanging days are over.
475
00:22:01,458 --> 00:22:03,041
[people cheering, applauding]
476
00:22:05,208 --> 00:22:06,541
[dramatic music playing]
477
00:22:26,333 --> 00:22:27,613
- [gun fire]
- [people screaming]
478
00:22:28,625 --> 00:22:30,375
- [woman] Gang shooting!
- The gangs?
479
00:22:30,458 --> 00:22:31,750
Junior!
480
00:22:32,583 --> 00:22:34,583
[Beverly panting, gasping]
481
00:22:38,291 --> 00:22:40,208
Mama! Somebody got shot!
482
00:22:40,291 --> 00:22:42,833
It was you, baby. You got shot.
483
00:22:43,416 --> 00:22:45,291
Oh, Jesus! Lord!
484
00:22:45,375 --> 00:22:46,833
Mom, it hurts.
485
00:22:46,916 --> 00:22:48,750
Oh, baby. Just breathe. Breathe.
486
00:22:48,833 --> 00:22:50,458
Reggie, do something!
487
00:22:50,541 --> 00:22:53,541
I need an ambulance. Gunshot victim
in front of Do or Die Projects.
488
00:22:53,625 --> 00:22:55,166
Right away! Right away!
489
00:22:55,250 --> 00:23:00,375
[officer laughing] Yeah, okay.
I'll see if anyone's brave enough to come.
490
00:23:00,458 --> 00:23:01,916
My skull's bleeding out.
491
00:23:02,958 --> 00:23:03,958
I'm gonna die.
492
00:23:04,541 --> 00:23:07,125
Or worse. What if I have brain damage?
493
00:23:07,208 --> 00:23:09,333
Man, impossible. You don't have a brain.
494
00:23:09,416 --> 00:23:10,333
[grunting, scoffs]
495
00:23:10,416 --> 00:23:13,583
This must be the end
if my sister came to say goodbye.
496
00:23:13,666 --> 00:23:16,166
Grey, even though you get on my nerves,
497
00:23:16,250 --> 00:23:17,875
and you ugly, I love you.
498
00:23:17,958 --> 00:23:19,916
Yeah, yeah. And here's your earlobe.
499
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,125
It was stuck to my shoe.
500
00:23:21,208 --> 00:23:24,291
I thought it was gum,
but it's got your stupid earring in it.
501
00:23:24,375 --> 00:23:25,375
Wait!
502
00:23:25,833 --> 00:23:28,083
So... I'm okay?
503
00:23:28,166 --> 00:23:30,541
Yes, baby! Won't he do it!
504
00:23:30,625 --> 00:23:33,666
I'm glad you good, big bro.
But this ain't over.
505
00:23:33,750 --> 00:23:36,708
You got that right.
Not 'til I find out who did it.
506
00:23:36,791 --> 00:23:37,708
Did what?
507
00:23:37,791 --> 00:23:39,500
