All language subtitles for Ballers (2015) - S05E02 - Must Be the Shoes (1080p BluRay x265 Kappa)

Kane is in the building, nigga...

Now tell me how you love it
You know you at the top

When only heaven's right above it, we on

'Cause we on

Who else is really trying to fuck
With Hollywood Cole?

I'm with Marley G, bro

Flying Holly Grove chicks
To my Hollywood shows

And I wanna tell you
Something that you probably should know

This that
Slumdog Millionaire Bollywood flow

And...

My real friends never hearing from me

Fake friends write the wrong
Answers on the mirror for me

That's why I pick and choose
I don't get shit confused

Don't like my women single
I like my chicks in twos

And these days
All the girls is down to roll

I hit the strip club
And all them bitches find the pole

Plus, I been sippin'
So this shit is movin' kinda slow

Just tell my girl
To tell her friend that it's time to go

Life isn't a straight line.

There were so many times
when my life could've ended up

different than it did.

So many bad choices.

Ooh, what up, baby?

She do got a little ass on her.

Hey, you trying fuck
with a rich nigga or something, baby?

You need to
leave this nigga alone

- with that little-ass cock.
- The fuck did you say?

Man, get your bitch-ass
back in the car.

I had a lot of friends
who could ball.

These guys had real talent,
way more talent than me.

- Fuck you talking to?
- Who do you think you are?

Kiss my Balenciaga ass, nigga!

You don't know who they are.

You wouldn't recognize
their faces,

'cause they never made it out.

Shut your ass up, nigga!

- What the fuck is wrong with you?
- Let's go, bro.

I'll kill that bitch-ass nigga!

What the fuck is wrong
with that nigga, man?

Why you gotta
throw the money and shit?

You could've gave that shit
to me, bro.

Those kids had no idea
what they were capable of

because no one ever told 'em.

How does talent get wasted?

How do lives get thrown away?

- Stop it!
- Oh, he's strapped!

Bitch-ass nigga!

I'd often ask myself...

"What's so special about me?"

Then I just got lucky.

Good morning, Candace.

Call to pressure me,
or you just miss my voice?

Yes and yes.

You need to be fully financed
by the end of the week

if we're gonna push you through.

Ah, so this is a collection call.

Full transparency,

there are competing offers
on the team.

"Competing offers"?

Is this a joke?
Look, you guys came to me.

I was retired on a fucking beach
until you called.

I am so sorry

- for complicating your life.
- You know what I'm saying.

And all I'm saying is you need
to secure your financing.

Bossman and I will
keep the others at bay.

I want this to work out for you.

Besides, they don't have
what you have, big guy.

No.

Just lighter complexions
and a lot more green.

And neither is worth
what it used to be.

Did you blow all that money
I made you already?

Oh, even better.

Sir Lancelot, you missed
the architect meeting.

Yeah, we're in crisis mode, Joseph,
putting out fires.

What could possibly be more important
than building our future home?

Keeping the current one
from burning down.

We haven't seen Dan today.

He's not in the office
and didn't call in.

We've got Odell Beckham Jr.
in here in five hours.

We don't need this crisis
looming over our heads

like a dirty, uninvited ball bag.

See, see, see? This...

This is a lesson of what happens
when you enable people, Kate.

Hopefully, he quit.
I mean, who cares?

You'll fucking care
when Gloria fucking Allred

marches through that door
with enough hairspray on

to asphyxiate the entire bullpen.

Oh, yeah? Does she rep dudes now?

Dan is dude-adjacent, at best.

Okay, what reason could he have
to wanna sue us?

I mean, I feel like you both are being
a tad bit alarmist right now.

Well, I think you're being
a tad bit idiotic.

This is easily a hostile
workplace environment issue.

Oh, a hostile workplace?
Kate, look around.

We have more arcade games
than we have desks, for shit's sake.

Corrosive language.

Yesterday alone, you used "pussy,"
"fuck," "shit," "fucking asshole,"

and others
I will not repeat.

No, I... I did?

Okay, maybe I did. I don't know.

I'm very expressive.
I'm given to hyperbole.

And occasionally, yeah, you know,
I turn office supplies into missiles

and I launch them
at employees' heads.

They get it.
They think it's funny.

Look, this isn't your old life,

where you and
that muscly pharaoh went around

threatening people with violence
as a matter of course.

Now, that is a normal workday
in America.

And we always got the job done.

Yeah, well, getting the job done

ain't the most important thing
anymore, Joe.

The work is still important,
but so is the environment.

Okay.
What do you guys suggest I do?

Mmm. There is something,

but I don't know
if you can make it happen.

It's tricky and complicated,
and will be tough for you to pull off.

It's called an apology.

Welcome back.

I know you?

This nigga got amnesia.

That gas will play tricks on your mind.

I'm fucking with you.

- How you feeling, baby?
- I feel good.

Ain't shit to it, really.
They just put your ass to sleep,

wake you up. No big deal.

That's my favorite part, the drip.

You think if I run down the hall
and butter up one of those nurses,

they'll give me
some of that shit for free?

Yeah, why don't you go do that, T?

Close the damn door behind you, too.

I can take a hint,
but you mean sometimes.

Thanks for showing, Chuck.
How'd they say it went?

Pretty good, considering.

Yeah, Doc Davidson is a pro.

Your ACL, MCL, and PCL
all sewn up now, buddy.

Oh, that's what's up.

Well, when am I getting up outta here?

As soon as you can
talk to Doc Davidson.

Let's get something to eat first.

I actually
got you some muffins.

I used to love to munch on 'em
whenever I got cut on.

Well, you know what?
We'll take 'em with us.

TTD can eat 'em
on the way to breakfast.

I'm not talking to no doctor.

You ain't getting outta here
until you talk to Doc Davidson, okay?

So you can either talk to him now,
or talk to him next week.

Your choice.

Look at the new besties.

- What up, Reg?
- 'Sup, Reg?

It's nice
to see you again, Colby.

Uh, but, V, did you forget today's lunch
was to discuss your future?

Uh, why do you think he brought me?

No fucking idea.

For verification.

Me and Colby, we was up all night
playing all type of shit.

"Up all night"?

Playing with a 14-year-old white boy?
Be careful.

Lifetime gonna make
a Surviving Vernon Littlefield.

You better watch your mouth.
And I'm 15.

Stop harassing. We been gaming.

Yeah, League of Legends.
He's a beast.

Of course he is.
He's a natural athlete.

Vernon, can I speak to you in private?

What up?

What up is,
I gotta reel you back in to reality

and get you focused
on your day job.

Gaming can be my daytime job.

I'm a natural.
You said it yourself.

I was being nice.
Man, don't... don't talk crazy.

I wanna be a two-sport athlete.

I bust ass in 2K, but it doesn't mean

I'm gonna quit Sports X
and pretend to be Steph Curry.

- I'll show you.
- How you gon' do that?

One v. one. First blood wins.

Loser never questions me again.

Thank you.

Where's the seafood tower?

My cholesterol's a little high.

I don't wanna go into cardiac arrest
before your big presentation.

We heard you were
bringing us something special.

Which you've already accomplished
by bringing absolutely nothing at all,

by which I mean Joe Krutel.

How is the prodigal son?

- I don't know. We don't talk much.
- Oh, what a shame.

I wish that was the case with us.

Well, just stop talking then.

Why don't you stop talking?

- For two minutes, just shut up.
- Why don't you just shut up!

- Why don't you shut up?
- Zip it up and shut it down.

You're not the boss of me!

Okay, why don't we just listen
to what our retiree has to say?

Maybe you need help
with your AARP application.

No, no. I just need your attention.
I don't have much time, okay?

We have very successfully
done a stadium deal together.

What if we bought a franchise?

- My nipples are getting hard.
- Oh, don't be crass.

I have the inside track
on the Kansas City Chiefs.

NFL franchise...

Government-issued,
high-yield bond.

How much?

Three bil.

Oh, with a strike looming?

That's also considerably more
than the last team that traded hands.

There's some good money
to be made here,

especially considering that
the league is thinking about

expanding their schedule to 18 games.

Who's gonna run the show
now that Joe Krutel is no longer?

I haven't figured that out yet.

Three billion without a plan?

The moment we take control of the team,
we can bring in our own people.

Our people?

Team's on the upswing.
Mahomes is killing it.

With a little help,
maybe they can win the Super Bowl.

Has Mahomes been re-signed?

First order of business.

Against the backdrop of a new CBA.
It's... it's kinda risky.

Hey, big man. Can I get a minute?

Yeah, as long as you don't
try to strip-search me.

No, never again. Come on.

So what's going on, Hos?

How's the world of security?

We all safe?

Oh, for the time being.

But if I were you,
I'd stay away from Jack in the Box.

Ooh, them chili cheese fries, though.
I love 'em.

You like it with or without lead?

What are you talkin' about?

Is that Kisan Teague?

Well, it damn sure ain't Wyatt Earp.

Oh, my God. Did they kill somebody?

No, they just grazed a kid.

- Anyone else seen this?
- By "anyone else,"

I'm assuming you're talking
about the league office?

- For starters.
- We don't know if they'd seen

or hadn't seen it until we know,
if you know what I mean.

But, to the best of my knowledge,

I'm the only one with this footage.

- How'd you get it?
- Come on now, Charles.

Do I ask you how you do your job?

You are really one thorough brother.

I will crawl up a snake's ass
to find a mouse.

Now you just thank God
that Sheriff Hos is on your side, man.

Here, take that.

Hey, buddy.

We just, uh, came by
to see how you were doing.

I was afraid that you were out sick.

Yeah, right. Whatever.

I was meeting
with Hypebeast, remember?

The guys you went on
your little rant about?

Pascal, their lifestyle editor,
is coming to the Municipal launch.

Oh-ho!

Well... So, I motivated you.

- Huh.
- That is not the word I would use.

Well, that's why Joe's here.

- Right, Joe?
- Yes, that's right.

That's why I'm here.

Dan,
I wanna apologize to you

for my crude language the other day.
Totally uncalled for.

- You mean when you called me a pussy?
- Yeah.

That's exactly right,
when I called you a pussy.

- For that, I am sorry.
- Okay, well, your apology rings hollow

because your actions
speak louder than words.

Dan, shut the fuck up
and accept the apology.

Okay, fine. Accepted.

- Happy?
- Great.

Now, we've got
a meeting with OBJ.

That's right,
and I want you in on it with us.

Wait, you... you do?

Yup. I sure do.

Now get the fuck in the car.

What the fuck are we doing
out here right now?

Shit.

Damn!

Gentlemen, hop in.

Fellas, nice to see you
arrive in one piece.

I know you're not talking to me.

- Appreciate the concern, Chuck.
- Anytime.

- So, let's talk.
- It's why we're here.

What, we watching a movie together
or something?

Yeah. It's a thriller.

Yet to be released, but something
tells me you already seen it.

How 'bout we cut to the chase
and you tell us how it ends?

Well, you sure you wanna know?

We don't wanna put you
in a precarious position.

Try me.

All right, look,

I was grabbing a burger with my boys,
right? And the next thing I know,

I'm in the middle of Unforgiven.

So you're admitting that
your boys participated?

Hell yeah.
And I'm lucky they did, too.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be here
to tell you the truth.

Chuck, you would've did the same shit.

- Oh, I doubt that.
- Come on.

Maybe, maybe not.

Running around in the middle of
the night with my boys, holding weapons?

Not exactly
a good representation of the team.

Matter of fact,
I think it's downright stupid.

It's a necessity, Chuck.

I ain't do nothing but be at
the wrong place at the wrong time.

I mean, can't a brother go get a burger
without all the drama and shit?

- Damn!
- I don't know.

I go home to my wife.
She makes me brisket.

Oh, it's over. It's over, bro.

Come on, come on,
come on, come on, come on.

Your boy's game is moist.

Yeah, you wet, too.

Wait, were you really trying?

- I never disrespect the game.
- I want a fucking rematch.

There ain't gonna be no rematch.

Gotta bounce now anyways.
Mom's waiting in the whip.

- See, Reg?
- I'm impressed.

I mean, you're better than good,

but still not nearly as good
as you are at football.

Ain't nothing worse
than a nonbeliever.

What you saying?

That you're the 500th
best gamer in the world,

but you're the tenth best
defensive player in the NFL.

One can make $100 million.
The other lives off energy drinks.

It ain't all about money, Reg.

If you ain't gonna support my dreams,
I'm not gonna support yours.

- What are you saying?
- Don't make me say it.

Say what you gotta say.

You won't support me,
I'll find somebody who will.

Damn. We there, huh?

It's one thing to get a second chance.

It's another thing to
actually do something with it.

When I got to college,
I was still wilding.

Focusing wasn't easy,
especially in South Beach.

When you're the shit at the U,
it is a whole other level.

But the higher the level,
the further you've got to fall.

Yo, Doc, what's good?

- Where'd everybody go?
- I sent 'em home.

Wanna do this solo.

Well... Good news is, surgery went well.

- How long is it gonna take?
- To recover?

- Yeah.
- You're looking at eight months.

Figured. Three tears.

Sorry it's not faster.
I know time is of the essence for you.

- Yeah, time has run out.
- Not necessarily.

I did Darren Sproles' ACL
and arm a couple years ago.

He came back just fine.
He was 35.

Appreciate your optimism, Doc,
but ACL and an arm aren't three tears.

Besides,
when you know, you know.

How'd the meeting go
with Jason and Kisan?

- What meeting?
- Oh, I get it.

You don't have to acknowledge it,
but just know that I know.

Know what?

You're planning on clipping Kisan.

Whoa, slow down, Benny.
We just lost Ricky Jerret.

Oh, come on.
I seen Hos take you aside.

Yes, that's what
your eyes are telling you,

but how 'bout you use your ears?

I need a list of all available
speed players ASAP.

I hear you. You'll have it
on your desk by tomorrow.

You know, Benny,
it's like you're starting to be

too observant for your own good.

Hey, if you don't stay on your toes,
you wind up on your ass.

Have any clever sayings
about drive-by shootings?

No. But my dad always said,

"Never trust a guy
who hasn't done time."

Feeling better about
the situation already.

Anytime, boss.

The list?

You know, once you've had
your life given back to you,

you wanna give it back
to somebody else.

But you'll never know if they're worthy
until it all plays out.

When I was 18, I got into a fight
just days after I landed in Miami.

I didn't start it,
but I finished it.

Beat a guy up pretty good.

Got arrested.

My scholarship was in question.

I was really fucked until one
of my professors vouched for me.

Luck comes in random ways.

- Here you go, baby.
- Thank you.

Mmm-hmm.

Non-alcoholic?

Ain't gonna be no beer
while you on painkillers.

You don't need no alcohol.

Only leads to depression.

See, that's why I try
the plant-based high.

If I drink wine, you could fill
an empty bottle with my tears.

You should be less concerned
with the emotions, TTD,

and more concerned with
the sugars and saturated fats.

See, not everybody gonna look
like you, Amber, and I don't think

- it's nice that you body-shaming me.
- All right. People, people.

If I'm gonna be holed up here
for the new few months,

I'mma need everybody
to take it down a notch,

especially you, TTD, please.

Sounds like self-pity's settin' in.

It's not self-pity, all right?

It's just obvious.

What's that?

It's definite. It's over, y'all.

- You retiring again?
- Don't be a dick, TTD.

For the last and final.

It's clear to me
that this is God's plan.

He put that car on that street
for a reason.

Are you sure that was God

and not some soccer mom
with her celeryjuice

looking at an iPhone?

She coulda killed me, T.

But God spared me,

so he must have
something in mind for me.

Any idea what that is?

Nope.

But that ain't the point, is it?

I'm proud of you, baby.
That's the way to think.

On to the next.

Hey, TTD. Give us a minute.

What?

Get the fuck outta here.

Oh, you ain't gonna
talk to me like that.

Y'all Jerrets a trip.

- 'Sup, man?
- What up, Pop?

I just wanna tell you
how proud I am of you.

I appreciate it, old man,
but you ain't have to say that.

Yes, I do.
Not only that, I wanted to.

You've had an amazing career, Ricky.

Much better than mine.

- Yeah, right.
- Nah, nah, it's true.

And way better than most.

It's not just your God-given talent.

But your key to success was
your effort and your drive, Ricky.

That's what I'm proud of.

I mean, you gonna
get that jacket, man.

I had more left.

Well, you're just gonna have to
find someplace else to put it.

- Hey, OBJ.
- There he is.

- Yes.
- What's up, my bro?

- Joe.
- Meet the Illuminati.

How you doing?
Lance doesn't shut up about y'all.

Well, Lance doesn't shut up
about much of anything, does he?

Some of the nice things I said
about Joe, I may have embellished.

Honestly, I was a bit stunned
when Lance said he knew you.

I've never met this man
before in my life.

Oi!

- That makes sense.
- Please, I've known Odell

since he was catching dimes in diapers.

Hooked up with his parents
in the French Quarter.

- I was tripping off my nuts.
- Shit-faced on Bourbon Street.

I don't know. I can't think
of anything better than that.

Yeah, I can, being under a mound
of cocaine in London in the '90s.

Ah, a bit of charlie.

The mates love him.

I met him
on a meditation retreat, I think?

Well, actually, Lance is
very, very good at his job.

Which is what?

Like, all I know is
you used to work for Spencer.

Uh, Joe is an expert in finance,
Lance a marketing genius,

Dan's head of branding,
and I'm creative director.

That's a dope team.
So where do I fit?

- Where don't you fit?
- We are...

Cultural curators. I get it.

Obviously with my accent,
I bring the culture.

So who brings the ideas?

Well, I got one for you.

We are about to break ground
on a one-of-a-kind campus.

Sports, art, fashion, music.

You can and should be
the face of that.

- Oh, yeah.
- I might fuck with that.

Mmm-hmm.

Yeah, I mean, what better way
to evolve your brand, right?

Performance is key, and that's what
you and we are known for.

- That's right.
- Y'all share a brain, or what?

Little bit, like...

Uh... We share a vision of the future.

I like to think that the future's now.

I like to think the past
is best left in the past.

Yeah, okay, well, in the midst
of all this profundity

and all this musing about time,

I'm gonna show you
something so beautiful,

it's gonna give you alopecia
on your bollocks.

Check this out, my friend.

- You don't say much, do you?
- I'm not allowed to.

All right, Dan. It's your turn
to shine, you crazy diamond.

Drop the tarp.

- That's hard.
- Whoa.

When we're done,
this is gonna be the house that O built.

Careful what you wish for.
I got ideas, too.

It's good. It's accurate.

You know what
we're looking at here?

- What?
- A future legend.

This effervescent warrior princess
closed OBJ

without a bead of sweat
or a twitch on her face.

I know. She was so cool!
How are you so cool?

- I don't know. Must be the shoes.
- It's gotta be the shoes.

This calls for a celebration.

- Yeah.
- Obviously not for me.

I've got chronic liver damage
due to bad life choices.

- A toast...
- "A toast."

What is this, The Great Gatsby?

- Come on, give me a cuddle.
- Ah, bring it in, boys.

- Amazing today.
- Ah, good work.

We're the best. We're the best.

Money. Must be the shoes.

Well, is that the look of victory?

- Well, it all depends.
- On what?

On you.

Need to assemble
a management team.

Well, I thought
closing was your strength.

Now you need my help?

Well, even I know
my own limitations.

Nothing sexier.

I need you.

- You're a key piece.
- I'm flattered. Ish.

- Key to...
- To help run the organization.

I need you to be
the new president of the Chiefs.

Ah...

- Nice title.
- Yeah.

- Paycheck ain't bad either.
- Poaching people already.

Well, I call it recognizing talent.

Hmm.

Well, unfortunately,
I fancy myself a boss, an owner.

Besides, I'm getting a promotion.

They're making me
the number two behind Roger.

- For delivering me.
- High tide raises all boats.

You set me up.

Well, if I did, it was unintentional.

Well, a girl's gotta do
what a girl's gotta do, right?

But I would call your bosses
and tell them that

- that deal is about to fall through.
- Hmm.

I think I'll wait on that.

Because I know
that you're resourceful.

And there is no one I'd bet on more
than Spencer Strasmore.

Nigga
