(tender piano music)

I don't understand this.

(tender piano music)

(tender piano music)

- Let me start by saying not everybody's a genius.

- That means he tested low.

How low?

- If we start now with some special education classes,

we may be able to get him caught up by high school.

(tender piano music)

- I really don't need any more bad news, Ms. Garcia.

- There is some good news. I gave him two tests.

Mrs. Freeman, you're familiar with IQ scores, correct?

- Yeah.

- Okay, are you familiar with EQ scores?

- No, no, I'm not. What's that?

- The skills you need to be successful in life.

The so-called 'street smarts.' People skills.

Darnell excels in this area,

Darnell excels in this area,

and as long as he's able to use his ability with people,

he'll be fine.

- Okay. Well, that, that is some good news.

(Brandy sighing)

Thank you.

- Oh, yes.

- [Brandy] Thank you so much. - You're welcome.

If you need anything, let me know.

I will personally be overseeing Darnell's progress.

- I really appreciate you, Ms. Garcia.

- Mmhmm, yes.

- And did you know that Darnell wants to be an astronaut?

- Um, Mrs. Freeman.

- Um, Mrs. Freeman.

It's important for him to dream big,

but it's most likely Darnell will never be an astronaut.

What's the update with your bully situation?

- [Darnell] All this training came in helpful.

- Hey, that's good to hear.

I guess you don't have to train as hard no more, huh?

- Yeah, especially the cardio.

I was running so fast, the bully couldn't even catch me.

(upbeat synth music)

- Wait, what?

- Yeah, all the cardio made me faster.

A lot harder to catch.

(upbeat synth music)

(punching bag thudding) - All right,

we're gonna put it into this. Get up.

Get your ass up, man.

We gonna make a spectacle out of this bully.

- What's a spect-a-roll?

- Spectacle, boy. It's an example.

- How do I do that?

- You're gonna invite the bully here

next Saturday for a fight?

- But Uncle Chris, the-

- You wanna put it into this or not?

- Yes, but it's really- - Am I wasting my time?

- No, no, Uncle Chris.

? I'm growin' so y'all get a load of me ?

? Yeah ?

- All right, this is what we're gonna do.

Every single day we train until next Saturday.

You bring all your friends here,

everyone from school's comin', all right?

- No. - Don't speak back to me.

? Nice, I can not feel the nicest ?

(children exclaiming) (people chattering)

I'll be back. - [Ferdinand] All right.

- Come on, babe.

(both laughing)

- Sometimes I'm too nice to you.

- How you feelin'?

- Ah, just a little bit sore.

- Brandy told me the bad news.

- Yeah, you know, it's a little scary thinking

that you could wake up one day and not be able to move.

- Yeah. (sighs)

Look, man, if there's anything you ever need,

and I mean this, anything at all,

you just let me know, all right?

You family.

(tender piano music)

(hands clapping)

- Appreciate it.

- No problem.

(tender piano music)

(tender piano music)

- I might have to give this Bible stuff a try.

You see how much easier it is when you just forgive?

- Yeah, you're right, babe.

- Yeah. - You're right.

(tender piano music) (children exclaiming)

(tender piano music) (children exclaiming)

(tender piano music) (children exclaiming)

(footsteps thudding)

- Ah, what are you doin' here?

You have a whole party outside for you.

- Is this my birthday present?

- (sighs) Maybe next year.

Look, mommy and daddy are having a really tough time

right now, okay?

Let's just close this and go outside.

Come on. (knocking on door)

Oh, there's someone at the door.

(door opening)

Ms. Garcia, - Hi.

- it's so good to see you. - Hey.

Happy birthday, Darnell.

- Thank you, Ms. Garcia.

- You're welcome.

- Now go out there and play.

All these kids are here for you.

Crazy. (laughs) - (laughs) Bye.

- [Brandy] Oh, I'm so happy you came by.

- Thank you.

Yes, Darnell has become my favorite pupil.

- I don't know where we would be without you.

- [Maria] Oh, thank you. - But, Let's not talk work.

- [Maria] Yes. - Let's go and

enjoy this party. - Okay.

All right, thank you. - Come on in, come on in.

(tender piano music) (both laughing)

(door shutting)

(tender piano music)

- Every year, we have our traditional birthday toast,

with the finest of liquors.

Queen's Jewel.

To my brother-in-law,

we may not always get along, but we always find a way.

To forgiveness.

(glasses clinking)

- [All] To forgiveness. (glasses clinking)

- Yeah.

(tender piano music)

- [Party-Goer 1] I'm gonna go get that-

- [Party-Goer 2] Yeah.

- So happy birthday, champ.

- Happy birthday to you too, Uncle Chris.

- [Ferdinand] Happy birthday, champ.

- [Chris] So how you feelin'? We good?

- Are you talkin' about did I tell my dad anything?

- [Chris] Yeah.

- No, I made a promise. I don't wanna go to hell.

- That's right.

You know I don't want nothin' to happen to you

though, right?

- [Darnell] I know. - All right.

So give me a hug, man.

(phone ringing) Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa,

hold up, hold up, hold up.

? Jammin' way to close, huh ? (phone ringing)

? Jammin' way to close, huh ? Hello?

? Yes, I'm minted ?

I'll have one of my guys drop it off tonight.

Ay yo, Flossy.

? I don't really wanna come ?

- Yeah, what's up, C?

? Tell 'em my pockets too swoll' ?

? And they already know I'ma flex ?

There a drop tonight?

- Let's put the delivery charge on it.

- Yeah, but don't we have them billed them twice in a way?

- Yeah, but we don't deal with them that.

This way we get paid over and over and over again,

ya' feel? - [Chris] Yeah, yeah.

- [C] Let's do that. - [Ferdinand] All right.

- Appreciate it.

- All right, where were we, man?

All right, enjoy your birthday.

- [John] How you doin'? - [Dr. Harry] Chris,

happy birthday. - [Chris] Thanks, man. Thanks.

- Yeah, man. Nice party.

- It's all right.

- Yeah, but...

it could be better.

- Yeah?

- said you'd bring me a little something special.

? Way too cold, say that I'm way too cold ?

- This is what the doctor ordered?

(Dr. Harry laughing)

- So, will you be joining us?

- Come on, man, you know my rule.

- (laughs) Yeah.

Don't get high off your own supply.

- There you go. There you go. There you go. There you go.

So y'all enjoy that.

- Same order next week, right?

- [Chris] Yes, sir. - You got it.

- Same order. I got you. - [Dr. Harry] All right.

- All right.

- You got any more of that?

He's got a lot there for himself.

Come on, man. You know I got you.

- Pay me back later.

- [John] Yeah, appreciate you.

? This is your moment to let it go, let it go ?

? You know that I'm minted, I'm way too cold ?

? Too cold ?

(children exclaiming)

(children exclaiming)

- What's on your mind, son?

- Baby, you know you can go and play with him, right?

- Yeah, but I have issues with him.

- What do you mean? We don't be havin' issues with boys.

- I don't wanna talk about it.

- Dad, how did you get mom to like you?

- Ah, at a party, almost like this one.

She was the prettiest girl at the party,

I couldn't keep my eyes off of her.

- What is goin' on with you guys?

- He's so full of himself.

- And?

- He invited everybody at the school

to come watch him fight on Saturday.

(tender piano music) (children exclaiming)

- And I was too shy to talk to her. (laughs)

I remember she looked at me and

the next moment she walks over to me,

grabs my hand, leads me to the dance floor.

She danced with me all night long.

I guess she just felt sorry for me.

(tender piano music) (children exclaiming)

- Fight? That's just silly.

- He thinks 'cause his uncle is teaching him how to box

he's something now.

He's gonna get his butt kicked.

- Frown a little bit more, son.

- I gotta go to the bathroom. - Okay.

- Hey, Shante, can we talk?

- No. I can't wait till Saturday,

so the whole school can see you get your butt kicked.

(plate clanging)

(children exclaiming)

- I'm so sorry, Darnell.

(tender piano music) (children exclaiming)

- Up, Garry, drive safe.

- Mr. Freeman, I can see why Darnell is so well-mannered.

Look at the love in this house.

- Um, who is that in the blue shirt?

- [Demetrius] Oh, you mean Ferdinand?

- [Maria] Mmhmm.

- [Demetrius] Yeah, what party needs a clown

when he's around?

(both laughing)

- Um, is he single?

- You know, fire burns.

- Mmm.

Well, let me see just how hot that fire is.

(tender piano music) (children exclaiming)

(tender piano music) (children exclaiming)

I'm Maria.

- [Ferdinand] Nice to meet you.

- Hey, babe.

Hey. - Hey.

(tender piano music)

- Yeah, they don't have anything in common, do they?

- Uh, nothing.

(children exclaiming)

(children exclaiming)

Think I should go save her?

- (sighs) It's up to you, babe.

(children exclaiming)

- Yeah, I'll be right back.

(children exclaiming)

(Brandy sighing)

Hello, hello.

- Hey, Brandy. This is Maria.

- Hey, Brandy. This is Maria.

- I know, she's Darnell's teacher.

Are you sure you wanna do... this?

Are you sure you wanna do... this?

- Ooh, he's the perfect gentleman. (laughs)

- Oh, well, I didn't know you were in to real women, Flossy.

- Flossy?

Why do you call him Flossy?

- Well, that's what the streets call him.

- The streets?

Ooh.

(both laughing)

Dangerous. (Brandy laughing)

- You just don't know how dangerous.

- Don't you have something to do like your... husband?

(children exclaiming) (somber humming music)

(children exclaiming) (somber humming music)

(Maria laughing)

- Um, what's her problem?

- Um, what's her problem?

(somber humming music) (children exclaiming)

(somber humming music) (children exclaiming)

- Ooh, ooh, ooh.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Woo, woo. Woo, woo.

Oh, crap. (laughs)

- [Lucas] Hey. - [Kyle] Hey.

- [Lucas] Hey, look what I found.

- Is that Coke?

- Coke?

Why would Coke be here?

- 'Cause that's what the grownups do.

- I think we should throw it away.

- Are you crazy?

- What?

- Do you know how hard it is your hands on Coke?

- Look, every time I go to Lucas' house,

and every time he comes to mine,

we always have a main mission.

Find out where the parents stash the Coke

and then get high as fuck.

- You two use Coke?

- Yeah, everybody at this party uses it.

Wait, you've never tried Coke?

- Why would I? It's bad for you.

- That's what the government says about

anything they can't tax.

Did you know alcohol was illegal

before the government figured out how to tax it?

Even Coca-cola used to have Coke in it.

It was pick me up.

- No, let's go over here. Come on.

- [Lucas] Yeah.

- I don't know, guys.

I still think it's bad for you.

- And I thought you was supposed to be some sort of badass.

- Come on, do it.

It ain't gonna be that bad. - [Kyle] All right.

(tense synth music)

(tense synth music)

(tense synth music)

- You're just ugly.

No wonder Darnell doesn't like you.

What actress wears braces and glasses?

(door opening)

- [Ferdinand] It's called a ugly duckling.

- Oh, um... what?

- Oh, um... what?

- It's called a ugly duckling.

Have you ever heard the story?

- Yeah, my mom tells me the same thing.

That one day I'll go have to be pretty,

but I just don't see it.

(tender synth music)

(tender synth music)

- I disagree with her.

You're gonna be beautiful.

- Thank you, mister.

Nobody's ever called me beautiful before.

- Now, get out of here, kid. I need to use the restroom.

(tender synth music)

(tender synth music)

(tender synth music)

(door opening)

If you don't mind.

- Oh.

Go ahead.

(tender synth music)

(tender synth music)

You know she's not even your type.

- Jealous?

- What? No?

Me? Jealous?

What we had is over.

- Yeah, it was fun though, right?

(tender synth music)

(tender synth music)

- Why couldn't you just be the man I wanted you to be?

- Because I'm not a 9 to 5.

You know how I roll.

I'm not a family man,

and I'm definitely not a one woman, man.

(tender synth music)

(tender synth music)

- That's exactly why we're not together.

- And like I said, it was fun.

(tender synth music)

(tender synth music)

(tender synth music)

(tender synth music)

(Brandy sighing)

- I gave her my heart! (heartbeat pounding)

I gave her my heart! - Darnell! Darnell!

Are you okay?

What's happening? Darnell?

Darnell! Darnell! Are you okay?

(Darnell whimpering) (tense piano music)

What happened? Why is he acting like this?

(tense piano music)

- [Dr. Harry] Just relax, Darnell.

(tense piano music)

- What is this?

- Looks like cocaine.

(tense piano music)

- Darnell, where did you get this?

- We found it.

- [Kyle] We found it in the grass.

(tense piano music)

- Am I gonna die, Dr. Harry?

- You're gonna be fine. You're gonna be fine.

Just breathe, in and out.

- I'll call 911.

- No, no, no, no.

- Why? - Look, look, look.

Half these people here, they might be on Coke.

They're professionals, it would ruin their career.

Please just, just let me handle it.

Please.

(tense piano music)

Please.

- Okay.

- All right. Come on Darnell.

Come on.

(tense piano music)

Just follow me. You're gonna be fine.

(footsteps thudding)

- Here's some chamomile tea, it should

help sober you up a little bit.

- Oh, I'm, I'm fine. Thank you.

I uh, give him a Xanax to counteract the Coke.

Poor kid slept the last six hours of his birthday party.

- I don't even know how or why

those drugs would end up at this party?

(somber piano music)

- Well, to be honest with you,

I can't imagine it not being at a party your brother's at.

(somber piano music)

Look, I'm uh, I'm gonna check on him one last time.

(footsteps thudding) (somber piano music)

(somber piano music)

(Brandy sighing)

(Demetrius smooching)

- I know...

I know, honey...

(footsteps thudding)

- He's gonna be fine. Sleepin' like a baby.

All right, I'm gonna take off.

I'll see you at work tomorrow, Demetrius?

- I'll be there.

- [Dr. Harry] All right.

- Drive safe, 'kay? - [Dr. Harry] You got it.

Night, Brandy.

- Thank you. Goodnight.

(somber piano music)

(door opening)

(Chris sighing)

(somber piano music)

(somber piano music)

(somber piano music)

(somber piano music)

- Look, sis, I...

I don't know how he got it.

- You two aren't welcome back at this house anymore.

- Wait a minute, what?

(somber piano music)

(somber piano music)

- [Brandy] Hey, baby.

- Mom, I'm thirsty.

- Hey. Here, drink this.

- Hey. Here, drink this.

- What are you doing, Demetrius?

- No, I'm tryin' to kill him, like his uncle.

(somber piano music) (Chris clapping)

You're drunk, D.

I think maybe you should go upstairs and get some sleep.

(Demetrius laughing)

- Hey,

you can thank your Uncle Chris for trying to kill you.

- Nigga, that's bullshit. Don't try to put that on me.

- Ooh... Bullshit?

- Ooh... Bullshit?

This...

CTS.

It's Chris Thomas' shit.

Am I wrong?

(Coke smacking)

(tense piano music)

- (scuffs) Fuck it then.

(tense piano music)

Look, I didn't give it to him, all right?

- Nah.

But you brought the drugs to the party.

- How did you even get the drugs? How did you get it?

(tense piano music)

- We found it in the grass.

Lucas and Kyle said they did it all the time.

Said it was harmless.

- See? Told you I didn't do it.

- But you brought the drugs to my house.

- Look, I'm sorry, bro. What else you want me to say?

I'm sorry- - 'I'm sorry.'

'I'm sorry.'

Is that what you told your homeboy

when he got shot in the arm?

'I'm sorry you got shot, Flossy.' (scoffs)

Is that what you told Andre?

- It's not like- - 'Cause ain't, (scoffs)

'Cause ain't enough sorry's in the world

that's gonna bring him back.

- Okay, that is enough. - Hey, be careful.

- That's enough.

(tense piano music)

- Ah, nah, nah, nah.

All right? You bein' a bad example.

You settin' a bad lesson to our son.

- Man, fuck this nigga. Let's go.

- No, relax, relax.

You're sick. You're tired. You're drunk. I get it.

You have every right to be upset, bro.

But what you don't do, is you don't have the right

to split up this family, all right?

So we'll be here for Sunday dinner. Both of us.

(Demetrius clapping)

- Nope.

That shit is over with.

Like I said, I don't wanna see you two niggas

in this house again. - Babe.

- Oh, so this nigga callin' the shots now, is that it?

What you got a year?

Maybe two before the ALS kicks in

and kicks your ass out? - Chris, stop.

- I'm patient.

I'll just wait till your ass is dead. How about that?

- [Darnell] What's he talking about, dad?

(Demetrius laughing)

- Nothin', son.

Nothin' I wasn't gonna tell you about.

- Well then tell him.

- [Darnell] You're dying?

(tense piano music)

(Demetrius sighing)

- Each one of us is dying from somethin',

like your Uncle Chris.

He's gonna die from the drugs.

That bullet that hit Andre...

(Demetrius laughing)

Yeah, that shit was meant for him.

(Demetrius clicking)

Shit'll come around to him sooner or later.

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

- I'm starting to lose count

with the amount of times you keep bringing

little Andre's name in your mouth.

(tense string music)

- Chris, what are you doing?

Put the gun away.

Stop. Put the gun away. - Tah, take it.

Go ahead, take it.

(gun clicking)

Nah, stay out of this, Brandy. - [Brandy] Demetrius.

Put the gun down. - Nah, stay out of this.

- [Brandy] No, put that- - [Darnell] Dad!

- Nah, nah, stay out of this, Brandy.

- No, put the gun down! - This motherfucker lost

his mind when he brought my man Andre

into this shit. - Stop, dad!

- Go ahead, do it.

You got the balls, right? - Demetrius, stop.

Don't do it.

(tense string music)

- This nigga ain't gonna do shit.

He ain't gonna do.

(Chris grunting) (Demetrius exclaiming)

- [Brandy] Chris, no! Stop it!

- You gonna turn on streets?

That what you gonna do? - Stop!

Chris, stop. - [Chris] Shoot me, nigga.

- [Brandy] Demetrius, Don't do this.

- Is that what you're gonna do? Shut up.

Shoot me, nigga. Do it. - [Brandy] Stop.

- Pull the trigger.

- [Ferdinand] Pull it, niggas. (gun clicking)

- [Brandy] No... No... (sobs)

(gun clicking) - This nigga here.

(Chris laughing)

(gun clanking) Give me my fucking gun.

This nigga actually got some fucking balls.

(tense string music)

(gun clicking)

(tense string music)

- [Brandy] Go.

You guys get out of here. Go.

- Get your bitch ass.

(Demetrius panting) (tense string music)

(lips smacking) (upbeat hip-hop music)

? Tell me what's the vibes, what's the move ?

- Oh, shit.

(phone ringing)

Oh, fuck...

? Tell the truth ?

Hey, yo, yo, yo. Get up. Get up. Get off. Get up.

? It's hard to lose ?

- But I'm having such fun.

- Oh, me too. Shit.

(phone ringing) (Chris sighing)

Perfect timing, nephew.

What's goin' on, kid?

- [Darnell] I just want you to know,

I'm not showing up to work out tomorrow.

- Look here, nephew.

You too young to understand

what's going on right now, all right?

But I can't let your daddy split this family up.

Darnell, look, your daddy's dyin'.

And when he does, it'll just be me and your mom

here to take care of you.

- [Darnell] I never wanna see you again.

- Oh, you gonna show up on Saturday.

It's either you gonna beat up that bully,

or I'ma beat up your daddy every single Saturday

until you learn to defend yourself, you hear me?

Look, Darnell, I love you.

Look, Darnell, I love you.

I love you, nephew.

You don't understand that right now, but one day you will.

- [Darnell] Fine, I'll show up.

But only to save my dad.

? All along on my tippy-toes ?

? I can't even tell myself, I just give and go ?

- You ready, baby?

- No.

- Come on, I'm horny.

- I don't give a fuck about none of that.

Put your seatbelt on.

? I can't waste my time, I got a lot to lose. ?

? Together we were all along ?

Mmhmm.

Just like a bully.

Call him out, don't even show up.

But we doin' this today, though,

even if we gotta drive to his house, all right?

Nobody fuckin' with my nephew again.

Hey, what up, D?

Hey, look, man, I can explain, um-

He looks like he's in a prayer position to me.

(tense synth music)

(tense synth music)

Hey, get over here, boy.

(tense synth music)

And we got a nice little crowd too.

(tender acoustic music)

- [Children] Ew...

- I thought I was gonna see a real fight.

(tender acoustic music)

(tender acoustic music)

(tender acoustic music)

(kiss smooching)

- I'll see you on Monday.

(tender acoustic music)

(tender acoustic music)

- Darnell? Come here, boy.

(tender acoustic music)

(tender acoustic music)

Now what you say next is gonna determine what I do next.

Why'd you lie to me at dinner the other night?

- I was going to tell you,

but Uncle Chris lied and I just followed.

- You just followed Uncle Chris?

- Look D, it's not that I care or anything,

but how'd you know we were here, huh?

Let me guess, my sister?

- Yeah.

She told me you picked the boy up

to take him to the park to play basketball.

(tender acoustic music)

- She didn't lie.

(punching bag thudding)

(tender acoustic music)

- I go to the park.

I figure, you know,

some daddy and Darnell time will be good for us.

(tender acoustic music)

(tender acoustic music)

I see Darrell, the boy that used to pick on him,

until I talked to his parents.

He tells me, yeah, Darnell's been beatin' up

all the kids at school,

and now he's at Putin's gym

with his Uncle Chris gettin' ready to beat up a girl.

(tender acoustic music)

- I see you know your way around a gym.

- Chris, I'm gonna need you to take Darnell

to school on Monday and apologize to all the kids

that he's been beatin' up.

- Look, man, someone's got to teach that boy

how to be a man.

- I'm doin' a very good job with that. Thank you.

- Look, we can agree to disagree.

And I ain't going to that school

to apologize to no damn body.

So what we gonna do, huh?

(ring thudding)

- Ah shit, I've been waiting on this.

- Then I guess there will be a fight.

- Oh, word?

- [Demetrius] Yeah.

(Ferdinand laughing)

- Did he just call you out?

- No, I'm callin' you both out.

All right, here's my proposal.

If I lose to either one of you,

then you keep bringin' him here.

And teach him how to sell drugs, shoot people,

whatever it is that gangsters do.

But if I win, then y'all stay away from him and my family,

at least until I die.

- Shit, that didn't take too long.

I'll take that.

You wanna get him first.

- [Ferdinand] Shit. Hell yeah. I'll go first.

- Shit, I'll get your gloves.

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

- There are three rules in my gym.

Rule number one, don't get hit.

Rule number two, don't get hit.

And rule number three, when I say break, you break.

All right, gentlemen, tap it up.

(punch thudding)

(tense string music)

- [Ferdinand] Ooh.

Whoa, I like that.

- [Chris] He's built with it.

- [Putin] All right. - [Chris] Keep your feet

moving, keep your head moving,

keep your feet moving. - Fight, gentlemen.

(tense string music) (footsteps thudding)

(tense string music) (footsteps thudding)

- [Chris] Good show, Flossy. Let's go.

Ah, shit... - [Putin] Ooh.

- [Chris] Flossy.

Flossy.

Flossy.

Flossy.

Flossy.

Flossy.

Hey, Putin, get that salt, man. Get that salt.

- [Putin] He'll need more than some salt.

(tense string music)

- Flossy, wake up ,wake up, wake up, wake up.

Boy, didn't I tell you to feel him out

before you got out there?

- [Ferdinand] Shit man, you ain't tell me he could...

- What? Fight?

The man fought his ass hard.

I didn't know I had to tell your dumb ass he could fight.

I'll handle this.

(tense string music)

Putin, go get my gloves.

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

- [Putin] Oh shit.

(tense string music)

(gloves thudding)

(tense string music)

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

Go to your corner.

- Hey, man... Something's wrong.

- What's going on, champ?

- I can't, I can, I can barely move my left leg,

and my arms hurtin' me.

Ah.

- Hey, what is wrong with you?

- I have ALS...

- Look, I'm stoppin' this right now.

- [Demetrius] No, no, no. - Hand me the gloves.

- Wait...

No. No, no, no. No.

No. No, no, no. No.

If I don't finish it off this round, then you can call it.

I got to show my son that his uncle's the one

that's the bully.

- Hey, don't you die in my ring.

- I won't, but-

- [Ferdinand] Let's go.

- [Putin] When I say stop, see?

(punches thudding)

(Demetrius grunting)

away

from

my

family!

Come on, man. Get up.

I was the Golden Glove champion three years in a row.

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

(Demetrius sighing)

- Wow, dad. I didn't know you could fight.

- I was gonna teach you someday,

just not like this.

Anybody can fight.

The main thing is walkin' away.

Go and give your daddy some water, okay?

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

(tense string music)

(Demetrius sighing)

(Demetrius panting)
