Thank you.

Hey, hey man, she loves your glasses. I
know. Wait a minute, baby, one second.

Look what she's going to give her the
glasses, baby.

out of bed why are you saying that
because it looks like you slept in your

clothes look man you always sit in my
outfit and it's like i mean i got so

style and you don't even know it all
right what are you writing nikki none of

your business well is it personal or is
it school related it's none of your

business oh leave it alone leave it
alone just leave it yo good morning

get out of here check it out man check
it out look I got me a new lip liner.

No? Emma? You want to try it? I pass.

Cool, because I don't want your BB on
it. Oh, fuck you.

All right, you didn't do your speech,
right?

We should go.

What's easy?

Oh, speeches.

Daddy, that's easy, though. You didn't
do it? I could just easily come up with

that. Yeah, right.

Because I don't got nothing prepared
anyway.

Okay, um, first of all...

want to be a journalist when i get out
of here um i think that it's really

important to um see what's going on in
the world and then communicate your

perspective on it i don't like nicknames
like andy and and or ang my name is

angela all right all right my three
dreams in life are one to win the lotto

two to get the hell out of this fucking
town excuse me

to be a photographer and travel around
the world taking pictures.

And I like writing in my journal because
it's a place, whatever, to put my

thoughts.

Also, I have an internship at the
women's shelter.

Also, I would like to get a camera for
Tommy so that he can learn, and then

she gets a little older, maybe she could
be my assistant.

I like writing poetry, but I don't like
to read it out loud.

And I'm accepted to Princeton next year,
and I want to major in.

African American studies and creative
writing.

But my father wants me to major in
business.

I do everything there from, like,
stuffing envelopes to helping the women

new apartments to move into.

And that's it.

And this is most important.

I don't like people up in my business,
period.

And that's it.

And I also think what makes a good
parent is loving your kids and going

them. Being mean to your kids is stupid.
And that's it.

And I can't wait to get out of this
fucking school. Oh, excuse me, Miss

Fuck you.

You were so fucking funny.

No, Emma was fucking funny. No, you were
funny. You were like so nervous, like

blushing. I wasn't that nervous.

Yes, you were.

No, I wasn't. Oh, man. I don't give a
fuck about that stupid thing.

Oh, yeah, right.

You were fucking nervous, man. You were
spitting and drooling all over the

place.

You're the one drooling. No, I wasn't.

I was looking with your face in front of
your face.

That's just because I can't remember
writing. That's all.

Come on, Liz.

Y 'all making jokes. I'm serious. I
gotta go home to study tonight.

I know. Me too.

Oh, God. You want to go right now? I
can't. I gotta go to the shelter.

Oh, shit. I'm going home.

You're leaving soon?

Damn.

It's time to go.

Just call me later and let me know
what's up. All right, cool.

We'll hook up later and maybe study.

At least Patty's here. What's up? Yo,
Patty. Yo.

What's up? Hey, Tommy.

Those daycare people are pissing me off,
man. I mean, they always pester me on

how I take care of Tommy, you know? Am I
feeling all right? Am I cleaning the

cuddle all right? It's making me sick.

Let's go do something fun, huh?

I can't. I gotta go. All right. All
right. I'm going with you. All right,

go. I'll call you later. All right.

Study real hard.

Right.

What's up with that?

Go into the shelter.

Oh, shelter?

Yeah.

I want to go.

Oh, God.

Damn. What?

Look at this.

These are dorms.

These are fucking dorms. Let me see.

Damn.

That is so cool.

With the windows and everything.

Wow.

Hey. Hey, did you ever send in your
housing application?

No.

You didn't?

Mm -mm.

All right.

Nikki, you know where you're going to
be?

You're going to be here in the
cafeteria.

They're going to be like, sorry, Nick,
we ran out of room.

You can be in, like, the cafeteria
kitchen.

Shit, at least I'll be by the food.

Right?

Oh, man, we have this really nice pasta
pot too to sleep in.

I can't believe you didn't do that.

No.

What? You're going to let me touch that?
Yeah. You're kidding.

Put your hand right here.

Right here?

Yeah. Thank you.

All right.

See, like, even though we're going to be
apart next year,

we'll always be together.

Like this.

Cool.

That's not your name.

Should I write something corny?

Feel free.

I know you can't resist.

Oh, God.

That was so cool.

I'm going to have to get you to do one
of those for me before you go.

Hey. Hey.

What's up?

What do you got?

Huh? What are you listening to?

Did you study?

Nope. You were supposed to call me. What
happened? Oh.

I wrote some shit. Don't worry about it.
Sorry. I was going to call you from

Nikki's, but then we didn't even end up
studying.

So where's Nikki?

I don't know. I guess she's late.

I guess so.

Yo, Patty.

Hey. Yo, Patty. I'm not crying. You're
such an asshole.

I'd, like, steal these sugars, because
he's, like, two sugar limit.

I'm like, what are that for? I always
take four or six sugars, you know?

putting rules on it.

Why are you such a big fan of Saturday
anyway?

Because Grandma gave me $20.

Oh, what? She gave you $20? Yeah. Oh,
look what else I got, too.

Tasty. Yeah.

I'll save it for after school.

Yeah, because we got that test second.

Oh, there's a test today?

Patty. What's up, y 'all?

What's up? What's up?

What's up?

Yo,

y 'all going to Wanda's party tonight?

No, fucking no.

Wanda? I don't think so.

Oh, word. I know, right?

Yo, but my boy Solomon's going to be up
in there, so I'm going to go.

You guys are buggin' though.

Whatever. I'll see y 'all later, okay?
What time is it anyway?

We should probably go too.

Why you care about being so early?

Why do you always want to be late?
Because I don't care.

Oh, alright.

Fine.

Emma! What?

I'm going.

I swear, if there was no school, you
would be fucked up.

Where's Nikki?

I don't know.

What is it on?

I don't even know.

What, didn't you study?

For about, like, two click -ins.

Yeah, I don't even want to go.

I've got to stay up more.

Are you going to skip?

I don't know.

Gotta go, I guess.

You know?

Yeah, I gotta go, too.

All right.

See you later?

Yeah, okay.

Bye.

When?

I don't know.

Later.

All right.

Bye. Bye.

What's up? What's up?

Class, I've just come from Mrs.
Clinton's office.

Last night... I think he's dead.

I think he's dead.

Yeah. I was just in the principal's
office. A cop was there, and they were

talking about Nikki. Hey, wait a minute.

Yeah, and then one girl said that she
took pills, and another girl said that

she... I don't know.

We're going in the middle.

We were thinking that we were going to
take up a collection in school, you

and use the money to paint a big mural
in our memory.

Yeah. Our friend Marlis, she's a really
good artist, so...

We just want you to know that we're
really sad

about Nikki.

Yeah, we really loved her.

Um, Mrs. Wells?

Could I use the bathroom?

Go ahead, Emma. You know where it is.

Okay. Thanks.

Um... We were thinking that, um... We
don't want to pry or anything,

but... We were really close to Nikki.

Yeah. And we were wondering if, um...

Um, did she leave a letter or something?

You know, just... Did she try and
explain?

Nikki left a lot of things behind.

Going through all of her things are not
really our priority right now.

But did she say anything?

Yeah, I mean, we were her best friends.
It's very personal, okay?

Girls.

I'm sorry, but I've got a lot of things
that I need to take care of, so I better

get started on that right now.

Emma, would you please thank your mother
for me for those flowers that she sent

over? They were very pretty. Sure. Yeah.

Okay.

Thanks a lot, Mrs. Waller. Thanks as
well.

Sorry about... Oh,

man.

What the fuck was taking you so long? I
want something up there.

Come on.

Just keep walking. Look what I got. Oh,
shit.

You gotta fucking turn off. Emma. Just
keep walking. Come on. Oh, my God. What

the fuck?

Come on, let's keep going.

Hey.

Come on, Emma.

Stop. I don't think I can make this.

Come on, Emma.

This morning, I couldn't get out of bed.

I don't even want to get up to go to
school.

This is all just about college.

Late at night, I lie awake thinking
about the future, and I don't see

good.

I just wish I could walk away and come
back and I'd feel differently.

all the stuff about her mother.

Jesus, look at her handwriting.

She's so fucked up.

Oh, Mickey.

Oh, why'd you go do it?

Two poems.

Oh, is this your hand, Elmo?

Let me see.

It's your hand.

What with the drawing?

Fuck you, Richard Helms.

Richard Helms.

Who's Richard Helms?

He's a guy at our internship at the
magazine.

I couldn't even look at him.

I couldn't believe someone could do
that. I'd feel so bad.

No matter how hard I... She was right.

It's fucking me.

Fuck you, Richard Helms.

She was raped.

God.

She fucking didn't say nothing.

I mean, we could have helped her.

Man, she should have said something.

She should have said something. What
kind of shit is that that keeps you

the house?

Man, I mean, that makes me wonder. You
know, you think you know someone?

Yeah, I thought I knew Nikki.

And I don't know Nikki. You know what I
mean?

I don't know.

I mean, it makes sense to me.

What?

Well, you know, she was, like, always
totally in control of everything. Like,

Miss Perfect.

And she thought she could handle it by
herself, you know? And she couldn't.

Yeah, she had it by herself, and she...
No, wait a second.

What are you talking about, Emma? I
mean, we hung out every day. We talked

everything.

Well, I guess we didn't, you know?

I mean, she walked around with that for,
like, too long.

That's really fucked up.

Yeah, but it's true. I mean, people
don't talk about that shit. What people?

Well, I mean, how much do you tell me
about shit that you're going through?

Like what?

What's, you know, what's like your life?

What do you want to know?

Look, Angela, that's not what I mean.
I'm not trying to fight with you. I'm

trying to say, like, I've known you.
I've been friends with you for as long

I've known Patty and Nikki.

And I don't know practically anything
about your life.

I'm asking you.

What do you want to know?

All right, fine. You want to talk about
it now?

I want to know everything.

Well, I'll tell you this. I'm not like
Nikki, all right? I'm not going to go

fucking kill myself because I know
what's going on in my life, all right?

Whatever. You're not hearing what I'm
saying.

Oh, like I'm just supposed to start
spilling my fucking guts out about what

happened to me?

I ate cereal this morning, right?

I washed my fucking ass, got dressed.

Walked out my house, went to school,
found out something really fucked up

happened to my friend, and now I'm
hearing all this bullshit, all right?

that's bullshit, Angela.

You know, you're telling me that you
want me to open up and you want us to

tell... But I can tell you how the fuck
I want to tell you. That's my fucking

point, Angela.

Stop fighting, all right?

Damn.

I'll just chill out.

Fuck.

I mean, all right, like, for me, you
know, like, I don't need to know

that's going on in the world, you know?

But maybe the more major event, you
know, you could tell us about, you know.

Instead of going fucking killing
yourself, man.

I mean, what is the big fucking deal? So
you say, you know, look, I got fucked

up, you know.

Whatever.

I got fucked up.

What? What do you mean you got fucked
up?

I got raped.

When did you get raped?

It was in October.

You got raped last year and you didn't
fucking say nothing?

I didn't know what to say.

Oh, man, I mean, this is scary to me. I
feel like I don't know nobody no more. I

mean, all these secrets?

Well, I'm telling you now, okay?

I was on a date with this guy and he
raped me.

You were on a date with a guy and he
raped you? Yeah, I was on a date with a

and he raped me. Do you have a problem
with that?

Alright, look.

You want to know what happened, I'll
tell you what happened.

I was at this party and I was with Josh.

Josh? Yeah. We've been going out for
like two weeks.

We hadn't had sex yet.

And we're at this party and we're
kissing.

And I was having a really good time, so
I was like, let's go outside.

So we go out to his car, and we're
kissing, and got my shirt

open, and then he says, I'm going to
fuck you now.

And I'm like, what?

And he's like, I'm going to fuck you.

And then he pushed me, and the door was
locked.

And... I'm a... I'm all shit. I mean,
you

go in a car like that with a guy...

I didn't want to have sex.

Look, man, I believe you. But, I mean,
what do you expect?

I mean, they want to have sex with you.
You don't want to have sex with them.

They're going to fuck you anyway.

I mean, if you call that rape, then, you
know, I've been raped by about just

every guy I've gone out with.

This shit is not fucking funny, Patty.
I'm not saying it's funny. I'm just

saying that's just the reality.

But that doesn't make it right, Patty.

Look, you just don't get in that
situation in the first place.

But you're in that situation now.

What the fuck are you talking about?

Well, I don't want to fuck someone. I
don't get in no car with my tits hanging

out.

Patty, I'm talking about Eddie and the
fact that he beats on you all the time.

That's the situation you're in. What the
fuck are you bringing up Eddie for,

huh? You don't bring him into this.

He has nothing to do with this. He has
everything to do with this. You give me

break. You're coming out of left field
with this.

I don't even get that fucked up from
Eddie. Oh, so what? There's a level to

Patty, look.

You have no control over Eddie and what
he does to you, all right?

No control?

You gonna fuck yourself.

I mean, I broke up with him a long time
ago. That's taking control. And he still

fucks with you.

Well, what am I gonna do?

All right?

I mean, look, at least I'm not just
sitting around complaining about it.

Exactly. You don't complain. You just
keep taking that shit, just like

else. Yeah, well, we take it because we
try to talk about it, and look what

happens. We fight for 20 minutes.

Well, this, you know, we're talking
about it now.

Fucking killing ourselves, you know.

Talking about it. Talking about it is
cool.

Hey, don't get me wrong, but when the
fuck does it do on you to do something?

Like to fight back?

You know what I'm saying? Say, I'm not
going to take this shit anymore. I'm

tired. I'm out of here. Because he ain't
going to fucking stop.

No way.

Yo.

Fucking hungover.

I mean, really.

I'm hungover from life.

No shit.

This is it.

I'm so fucked up.

I'm hungover.

I'm hungover. I'm sorry.

Me too.

Thank God it's fucking Friday. That's
all I can say.

G -I -F -F.

Yeah, well, don't go thanking him too
soon. You know what today is, right?

Fucking pep.

Nikki did more for the school than those
assholes, you know?

She was on the pep squad, so who gives a
fuck?

Yeah, man, they're so phony. They full
of shit, because they own it all.

I know.

I hate the fucking...

Go. Like house of freaks.

Let's get out of here.

Who you going?

Duggar. Duggar. Yeah.

Check it out.

Number 33. That's Josh's car.

This is the love machine.

Oh, shut up.

He's a motherfucker.

Fucking dick.

Motherfucker.

I don't think your keys are going to
work.

Yeah, they are.

They're going to fucking work.

Jesus Christ.

I know what I'm fucking doing. I'm a
fucking mechanic.

Fucker.

into Josh's face when he sees his car.

All right. Oh, man.

I wish I could have seen that, man.

Picture him. I mean, he's gonna see his
car. He'll be like, oh, my fucking

car, man.

You know, sometimes they put, like,
smooth love on their car. They put,

um... Oh, they put, like, you can't
touch them.

Going with all those flat tires.

Point taken.

All right, Eddie? It's a good one, all
right? So why don't you get some bars in

your fucking window so he can't be
coming up in here all the time? You know

much bars cost? Like $500.

Yeah, we should have stolen Josh's car
and sold it, and then we'd have the

money. Yeah, but we also could have
bought something nice for Nikki.

Yeah, like paint for Marla's to do that
mural or something.

Yeah, maybe some flowers for her mother
or something.

Mm -mm.

Fuck her mother.

I don't think so. Fuck her mother.

No, this ain't no movie.

But that felt good today, though.

Hi. Hey, how's my little girl doing?

She's fine. She's dripping, man.

Not for nothing, Cora, but to let his
ace be mean anything.

I'm not talking quiet, all right?

Jesus,

watch him out.

Did you keep her up all night watching
talk shows and shit?

Who's that for?

That's for me.

What about her?

She want something? Can I have some
potato chips, please?

Would you get her something nutritious,
please?

Like a sandwich, right? Can I have a
cheese sandwich, Cora, please?

Make it Swiss.

Swiss is too spicy, all right? She
doesn't like that spicy shit.

I said I don't like American, all right?
I had American in my sandwich last

week. She couldn't get enough of that
shit, I'm telling you. American is not

good meat, all right? All right, Swiss,
Swiss, okay? Swiss, please. She said

Swiss.

I'm going to be back late.

Look, I want you to get those clothes
out of the half upstairs and bring them

down to the laundry.

Tonight.

Okay?

Words. Words.

Yo, that's real fucked up about Nikki,
you know.

Yeah.

I thought she was a real cool person,
you know.

Yeah. Can't believe what Sam was.

Right? You know?

Man, people get so sad sometimes.

Was it like that thing you guys did to
Josh's car?

Is that what happened to Nikki?

Well, no, not exactly.

Well, whatever.

When I heard about it, I was like, oh,
shit, and she was mad fat. I was like,

oh!

I was, like, representing for all of us,
man. You don't know how proud I felt. I

was like, yeah. Really? Yeah. It was
cool.

It was really cool. I, like, broke the
window.

Word.

I was like.

Oh, shit.

Yeah. That was cool. Cool, right?

Excellent.

Yeah, man.

Cool. All right. So I'm going to go, and
Tommy's going to stay here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Uh -uh.

Patty, where are you going?

I got a car shop. If I don't go, he's
going to fail me.

Patty, we got a lot of work to do. Well,
I got five absences already, all right?

Now I'm going to be late.

What about daycare?

They couldn't get us up today. I mean,
come on, you guys. Why are you giving me

such a hard time, huh? You can't just...
It's okay, Patty. I'll watch her.

Thank you, Miles.

All right, you want to play with these,
huh?

She loves playing with these. All right,
all right.

All right, man, I'll see you. I'll see
you later.

Thanks.

Thank you. Bye.

She did it again.

She was like, peace.

Marla, let me ask you a question.

Why the fuck you always agree to do
stupid shit like this, huh?

What is she gonna do? She can't help it.
Yeah, but we're working on a last

fucking issue. It's already late.

And what if she starts crying?

Just chill, Angela. You're gonna make
her feel bad.

Marla, give me a break.

Tommy does not know what I'm talking
about. Look, right? You don't know how

really fucks shit up.

Right?

I just wish she'd be a little more, you
know, like, I mean, I'm happy to do it

sometimes, right?

But when it fucks up the paper, then I'm
like, no.

Fuck up the paper? Try fucking up your
fucking life.

Yo, what is she supposed to do? It
happened.

What would y 'all have done?

Called an abortion.

Emma, don't even talk like that right in
front of Tommy. That's fucked up. It's

reality.

Whatever. Just take it easy on her, all
right? Who, Tommy? What are you, working

for the Fetus Rights Organization or
something?

Shut the fuck up, okay? Look, all I know
is that I'm not having any fucking

kids. Never?

I want to do whatever I want to do. You
know what I'm saying?

Anything and everything.

I want to write. I want to be
successful.

I just don't want to deal with the
bullshit like Patty. No, wait. But let's

you got pregnant.

Then what would you do?

Nothing would happen.

How do you know? You're never going to
have sex?

I've had sex. I don't have a baby,
right? Wait.

You've had sex?

Fuck you.

So then, right, in bio, Mr. Dole is
sitting there and he's like, talking to

clock, right? He's all fucked up. He's
like, the pistol. Oh, no.

What you writing?

She's probably writing her number.

I don't know. I already wrote it over
there. No one's calling.

They won't. They won't. Wait, seriously.

I'll fuck you up if you fuck with me.

Oh, I'm scared.

Oh, I just pissed in my pants, for real.
Oh, damn.

Give me a break.

No,

you didn't. That's so fucking nasty.

I haven't had anything to eat all day.

That's even worse.

Oh, man, that's like a day old, man, a
day old burp.

What are you writing?

Parabellum, what are you writing?

It's a burp, the... All right, all
right, all right.

What is it? It's a burp, the patriarchy.

It's like a fucking term paper.

Emma, we'll have to give you a seat. You
know we don't like those big -ass

words, right?

Oh, look, look.

All right, make sure you throw that shit
up there. Not at us. No, I know what

I'm doing.

No, just make sure you wet it enough.

Yeah, I know, I know. It's just
different toilet paper.

I just want to see it fall on someone's
head. I don't like that. What are you

guys trying to fucking do?

Trying to add to the fucking thing.

Yo, check it out.

Oh, man, Josh's car.

Put number 33 on it. Oh, right.

This is like the door of shame and shit.

Check it out. Nice, sticky.

It's a little crooked.

You would know.

Don't even talk like this. It's true.

These guys will fuck with

you.

What is it?

Oh, this is turning into a drama.

Now, if anybody has names to add, just
put them down.

Oh, it's Heather.

Interfering Heather.

I mean, Benita.

Why don't you cut it out?

Why don't you cut it out?

You think that's funny?

You think that's funny?

Yes, we do think that's funny.

Yeah, I gotta use the bathroom.

Yeah, why don't y 'all go do what you
need to do?

It's our bathroom, too.

Like,

who gives a fuck, all right?

Did you do that?

Did you do it? Well, I mean, we just
came and discovered it. Imagine.

And you're standing right next to it.

Because it's a free country, girl. I can
stand where I want to stand. Is that

okay with you? The markers are right
there in your pocket. Do you think we're

stupid?

Yeah. Yeah, we do think you're stupid.

Well, you're wrong, okay? Because we're
not.

Because we know that you did that to
Josh's car.

How do you know?

Well, give me some information.

How do you know?

It doesn't matter.

You're talking bullshit.

I don't have to tell you. Look, stop
talking bullshit, all right? Why the

are you coming in our face anyway?

Because Josh is our friend.

Oh. Oh, I'm sorry. Josh is your friend?

You know what? Get the fuck out right
now. I just think you should be careful

you're going to go around telling lies
about people.

Lies? What the fuck are you talking
about telling lies? You go fuck

Hold up. Hold up.

Is that a fucking threat?

Whatever. Look, just because your friend
is dead, don't go taking it out on

other people.

Hey. Hey.

How are you?

Clinton's office.

What'd she want?

She wanted to congratulate me on what a
fine student I am.

Get in trouble for the fight?

No, I didn't, but, um, Patty and Angela
got suspended.

That's good.

So, um, where were you all weekend?

What do you mean?

Where did you get any of my messages?

Left you a whole bunch.

Yeah.

So why didn't you call me back?

I don't know.

I was busy.

Okay. Busy doing what?

I was, like, taking care of shit.

You know?

So you were hanging with your posse,
huh?

My friends, yeah.

You know, it kind of pissed me off,
Emma.

What pissed you off?

That I sat around for three days and I
didn't hear from you.

Well, I didn't ask you to sit around for
three days. I didn't say you did. It

just, you know... Look, Dylan, no, I
have enough going on in my life right

you know? And to come into school and
have my boyfriend be like, oh, I'm

pissed at you, it's like, no.

I'm sorry.

Now forget it.

It just, it was just frustrating.

Well, I'm sorry.

So you heard about Josh's car?

Yeah.

I heard he's pretty pissed.

Well, I'd be pretty pissed if I was the
girl he raped.

No, totally.

Still, it's like violent.

You know?

Violent?

I don't know, Dylan.

I mean, it looked to me like somebody
was trying to make a point, you know?

I mean, did you see what it said on the
car? Do you know what rapist means?

Yeah, I know.

Why'd you do it?

What are you talking about?

I know you were there.

The whole school knows.

So?

So what? What do you mean, so what?

I can't just say so what.

Because I'm proud of what I did.

Oh, my God.

I don't understand.

I mean, I understand that you're upset
about Nikki, but I don't know how you

think that trashing someone's car is
going to make any... I really don't

understand, do you?

Why do you have to get sarcastic with
me? I'm trying to talk to you.

Talk away.

You know, you could talk about all this
stuff with your little friends, but when

I try to... Dylan, what the fuck do you
know about any of my friends? What do I

need to know?

I mean, just look at them.

I mean, what about Patty? It's like she
got a fucking kid. Like, what's up with

that? I don't fucking believe this.

She's a fucking juvenile delinquent.

No, not even juvenile. I mean, she's
been left back so many times. What is

now, like 40?

I mean, come on, Emma. She takes fucking
car shop.

You were accepted to Columbia for next
year and you're hanging out. Where are

you going? I'm going to class.

Where do you think I'm going?

You know, I really, I think you're
throwing shit away.

Yeah, can I tell you how much the shit
means to me that I'm throwing away?

Right? This much.

Right now it means this much.

What are you doing home?

What are you doing home? I'm picking up
some papers for the school meeting. Did

you get out early?

I could say that.

Okay. Did you do your homework?

Nope. I didn't have any homework.

I got suspended.

Excuse me? I said I got suspended.

Now, why did you get suspended?

And look at me when you're speaking to
me. I wasn't talking yet.

I got suspended because I got in a
fight. I know you better lose that

right now, young lady. Right now.

Now, I have a meeting that I am late
for.

Here I am fighting to keep a school open
and you're getting suspended from

yours. Are you finished?

Don't you dare tell me when to finish.

Now, you are fighting over what and with
who? She got in my face. I don't know

her name.

Oh, she got in your face.

You don't even know her name, and you
just started to fight her. Out of the

clear blue sky. She got my face. That's
it, all right? That's it.

You think that's simple? Of course not.
Nothing's that simple when I'm talking

to you.

Life is not simple, Angela.

But I didn't make the rules. What was I
supposed to do? You were supposed to use

some common sense. Oh, okay. So now I'm
stupid.

No, you are not stupid.

But fighting was stupid. Yes.

And you know better than that. I know to
stand up for what I believe in. Oh, and

what is that, Angela?

Huh? What could some little schoolgirl
possibly say to you that could make you

fight her? She dissed Nikki, all right?

Who does she think she is to come in my
face telling me, so what, your friend

got killed? I'm not supposed to feel for
that?

I'm not saying that you're not supposed
to feel for that. I understand that.

Angela, Nicky is dead, and that's a
horrible thing.

I'm sorry.

But what is important is for you to keep
living.

Getting in some little fight is not
going to bring Nicky back.

I know.

But you know what?

It felt real good at the time.

So how does it feel now?

This is your life, Angela.

Exactly.

My life.

Even though we're going to be apart this
year, always be together.

Like this.

I am really, really going to miss you
next year.

You know it's not my birthday. Just fuck
your cam, all right? I'm somewhere else

right now.

What, you having one of those female
problems? Don't even start with that

Cam. Check it out, man. Look, as a
matter of fact, yes, I am having a

problem. It's my fucking mother, all
right?

I mean, it's bad enough she's wiping my
shit at home, now she's fucking up my

game over here, too.

Just forget about it.

You're graduating next week.

Summer's coming up in a few weeks.

Baby, it's all good.

Yeah, you're right. It is all good.
That's why I'm out. As soon as I get my

fucking diploma, I'm out of here. I'm
going. Hold up, hold up.

Who's talking, September? You saying you
leaving early?

Hell yeah, I'm leaving early. I'm tired
of being under her roof and following

her fucking rules.

Know what I'm saying? All right. All
right.

A -S -A -P? Yes. N -O -W.

O -K -A -Y.

Fuck you, Kim.

We can go hang out later.

I want to play today, you know. It's on
day off. I know, right? I'm saying.

We should go to Mexico. You should get
those pants.

Oh, yeah. You think they're cool?
They're super cool on you. Yo, baggy

Why don't you let me crawl in those
pants with you?

Oh, fuck off.

I could if you come back in five. I got
a break coming up. No, he didn't.

Uh -uh.

No.

I'm sick of it. I'm so sick of it.

What's up? A lot.

I got a problem with you.

You got no respect.

talk to your girlfriend, your mother
that way, I think you'd have a problem

that. Yeah, but I ain't got no
girlfriend.

That's a big surprise.

Why? Because you an asshole.

Why don't you come back in five, cutie?

Come back and see me.

Right. In your dream.

The fuck was he talking about? They
think they talk to you that way and you

sit down there and fuck them. You know
what I mean? You're stupid. You look

you screamed at him, though. I like it.

Yo, fund the woman and her mighty
lightning bolts.

What's up?

Where you coming from?

You know, none of your business. That's
where.

Yo -ho, very funny, Patty.

You been by the store?

No.

You seen Julius around?

No way.

Well, why? What's his problem, Eddie?

Fucking looking at him.

Oh, well, that's pretty tough.

Why don't you shut the fuck up, all
right? I'm not talking to you. I'm

to her, all right? It's not fucking
recess. Look, man, just leave them out

it, all right? All right, you got rude
friends, all right? I do not have rude

friends, man. I got nice friends.

Okay, that's cool. Very nice, okay?

You have a match?

No, I have a lighter.

Can I use your lighter?

Hey, you and the lightning bolts did a
job in some schoolboy's car.

Yeah, what do you know about it?

Give it back, man. Fucker.

You really fucking damaged it. You
scratched it up and you put some paint

You forgot to soap the fucking windows.

What are you talking about, man? We did
about $300 worth of damage on that car,

all right?

Can I say something?

If you would have sold that, you'd have
$300 in your pocket right now. Yeah,

well, look, man, first of all, we didn't
want to steal it, all right? That

wasn't the point.

Oh, that's not the point? No. What's the
fucking point, then? You have a problem

with this boy? Why didn't you come to me
then, huh?

Why didn't I come to you? Because you're
a chicken head, that's why.

You're a fucking idiot, right? Hey, how
do you feel?

Don't fucking touch me. I thought you
didn't. Fuck you, Eddie. You ain't shit

anyway, won't you? You never hit a man
like that, right?

Fuck you, little bitch. You okay?

Go read the comic book. Go you fucking
read the comic book. I dare you.

Illiterate motherfucker.

Patty, wait!

Thank you.

I mean, just think about it. We wouldn't
have been doing this shit if we

couldn't.

Well, I mean, I would have, but, you
know, I had it in me. Oh, yeah, right.

Right, right.

Fugitives from the law.

Wait,

let's go this way. Come on.

Let's go talk to us.

Yeah, let's get some stuff for Tommy.

But Matt, it's like everything we do,
man, you know? It's like, see this car?

Fuck it up.

See that house? Rob it.

Fucking criminals.

Nah.

Eddie's the criminal.

Oh, really? Josh, too. Yeah. Yeah.

I don't know.

Let's rob a bank next. Oh, shit.

What's next? Y 'all be wearing colors
and shit?

Pink bandanas.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever.

You know, that's a lot of shit he's
gonna be missing. Please, Cam, do not

me the big brother speech, all right?

Eddie's a piece of shit. Shit, you never
know we fucking did it, because

everybody hates his fucking ass anyway.

All I'm saying is watch your ass.

No, I think you better watch your ass,
because I'm going to bust it in about

minutes. Is that so?

That's so.

Well, then I suggest you go home and get
out of your little girly things, you

know? You can throw down props.

Cam, Cam, Cam, I think you and I both
know that I have busted ass on many

occasions just like this.

Oh, well, in that case, please be
gentle.

Don't hurt me. I know, you know.

You do that. Well, bring it, girl. Oh,
I'm definitely going to bring it. I'll

say it.

I hope you bring your scales as much as
you bring your big fucking mouth. We

keep going. Hoover Park Club.

Hoover. Hoover.

Yeah. That's my home court. You know
that, right? Can I see this book for a

minute? Uh -huh. Thank you. Yo, yo, yo.

Don't even play that.

Yeah,

and then they got this book, The Hole in
Your Nose, and it's all about how,

like, Dustin's stuff makes the snot and
all this other stuff.

That's real nice. I know.

And it said if you pick your nose,
you'll get a bloody nose.

Right?

You know, it's a good thing Tabi's
learning all these important things.

Yeah, but, no, they say, though, that,
you know, even if that kid doesn't

understand it, to keep reading it to
them because, like, later on they'll

remember it, like, you know, in 10 years
or whatever.

And, plus, she loves looking at those
pictures.

She loves that. Good.

Yeah.

Soon she'll probably read my comic
books.

And Grandma's birthday's next week.

Oh, yeah?

Mm -hmm. You want me to go with you to
get her something? No, I got her a box

chocolate -covered cherries.

Oh. I'm not ready. No.

But grandma loves those, though.

But I know it's like, you know, it's
like the changes, like drooling out of

mouth.

But once in a while, they're okay,
though.

You know?

Plus, um, I fixed her car. I gave her,
um, changed her oil, gave her new plugs,

gave her new pads.

Mm -hmm.

Mm -hmm. I'm glad you can fix cars
because you can fuck them up because you

fuck up some cars.

I know. For real.

I hope I have my own to fix up someday.

Oh, you thinking about getting a job
down at Maranello's or something?

Yeah, that pervert, he wouldn't hire a
girl mechanic.

Oh, please. You are so much better than
those motherfuckers he got down there

now. They put my mom's tires on over
him. She went down to fucking wreck. I

don't know. I don't know.

I'm not going to stop my own garage.
I'll take his business.

That's right. You know, I'll help the
ladies with the car job. The ladies will

come to me.

Mm -hmm.

Would you?

You alright?

What's up?

I don't know.

What's up with me, Pam?

I just want to be with the boy. I just
want to be with him.

Definitely gonna finish school.

Yeah, I don't know.

I'm just tired, you know?

Yeah.

You'll be fine.

I don't worry about it.

I'm going to be like, what did you do to
your shirt?

Oh, shit. Look at this.

Please don't put no nasty stink. bloody
sanitary napkins in the broken toilet.

They had the nerve to say thank you,
too. Thank you.

That's nasty.

Look, just like you did.

What does that mean?

Yo, keep looking.

Oh. Oh, shit. Keep looking, though. Keep
going. Oh, shit. This was y 'all. Yeah.

That's what I was telling you about.

Oh, shit.

Look at.

Look.

Scott. Yo, wait, wait.

With those deep girls.

Bitches, they can't get laid.

I know who wrote that.

Heather. Heather Bitchface.

Yep. Look, Kyle Buckley hit me.

Who's that?

He's that guy with the glasses, you
know.

Watch out, Mr. Thomas, or we'll try to
fuck you.

That's good you wrote that.

Who, me?

Yeah. I didn't write that. You didn't
write that? Mm -mm.

Oh, well, then that's good, because
everyone's going to know what a pig he

Pig, our teacher. Fucking pig.

Right? He sucks, man.

So, Molly?

No, don't be mad.

It's going to sound hard, but I told him
basically that you wanted to, you know,

fuck him.

And, but no, no, no, don't get mad.
Don't get mad. Because look, I'm doing

favor. It sounds what it is, but it came
out very, I thought, very nice. And the

way Simon reacted was so good because he
got all shaggy and you know that he

wants it too. Yeah.

do this on a diggy damn low, you know
what I'm saying?

You do it on a diggy damn slow.

That's why I did it, Marla. Put a little
oomph to it, you know what I'm saying?

You, she's doing you a favor.

I need to get the fuck out of here,
because now, fucking with y 'all, I'll

a big office for four hours, messing
with y 'all, craving over there.

You're gonna now be doing it, doing it.

Hey.

Look, I'm really sorry about the other
day. I didn't mean to.

Whatever.

No, really. I mean, you were right. You
know, I was just... Look, Dylan, just

forget it, okay? It's not worth it.
Okay.

I'm sorry.

Just that I think, you know, I mean,
these girls, you're hanging out with

an awful lot, and you guys are doing
shit, and I'm like... What, Dylan?

What? Why don't you finish your
sentence, okay?

I didn't even say anything.

No, you don't have to say anything,
Dylan, because it's not what you say.

It's what you think.

Oh, okay, now you're telling me what I
think? I know what you think, Dylan.

You know?

I mean, when you figure out what's so
scary to you about my friends, why don't

you let me know?

You know what? I don't have to take
this.

No, you don't.

You don't have to take it, and you don't
understand it.

So why don't you just go?

I'm just warm now because now I can't go
to the prom.

I know you're looking forward to that
soon.

Damn, so was I.

Me too. I have my nice sequined dress,
but I am going to go.

I asked Joe, you know that boy with
glasses, the Urkel boy? Oh, no, you

didn't. I did?

Wait, wait, wait.

In fact, I got a ghost suit.

Shit.

It's skin time.

Is that Bonita? Did she just say hi?

What'd she say?

I don't know. I think she wants to come
over here.

I mean, she might as well be in there.
You know, she's not going to the prom.

She's going to the fucking prom. No, she
ain't going. She wouldn't even be here

if she wasn't going to the prom. Anyone
going to the prom ain't a school thing.

Nope. That's for sure. I mean, it takes
you 15 hours, you know, just to do your

eyes, you know.

Blue eyeshadow.

Get your nails done.

Excuse me.

Excuse me. Hello.

Excuse me, miss. I just want to talk for
a second.

I just want to say I'm sorry about what
I said to you the other day. I feel

really bad.

Right, yeah, you're sorry, right.

No, I mean it. I heard what you said,
and I feel really bad. I shouldn't have

said what I said. I'm sorry.

All right.

I mean it because, you know, you don't
deserve to hear something like that.

You're a nice person, you know. You
don't even fucking know me, man.

I know, I know. It's just, you know, you
guys got work, but they're pigs, you

know what I mean?

Well, look, just because, you know, you
work with a monkey don't mean you need

to act like one. I know.

I know. That's what I'm saying. But you
spend the whole day digging holes out

here. You know, after a while you
start... You know what I mean?

But after I get out of here, I'm not
like that. You know?

I know how to treat a woman right.

Take her out to dinner.

A little lobster, a little wine,
whatever she likes.

Yeah, well, I like lobster.

Yeah?

Yeah, my name's Anthony.

Patty. Patty. It's a nice name.

Nice to meet you, Patty.

Ah, ah, yeah.

You still think I'm a jerk, right?

Well, I'll tell you what. If you want, I
could give you my number. We could, you

know, hang out sometime, have a cup of
coffee, talk.

No, I don't think... No, I don't want to
pressure you or nothing. No pressure,

anything. Just, you know, talk.

All right, I'll take your number.
Excellent, excellent.

All right.

You got something?

Yeah, I got Facebook.

And I got an answering machine, so if
I'm not home, machine will pick up. You

can just leave me a message, okay? Mm
-hmm. Nothing dirty, though.

Right.

No. Leave it on that back page. All
right.

You give me a call. It's Anthony Grasso.

Here's my number.

All right, you take this.

That's a lucky number, okay? Yeah? What
is it, 1 -900?

No, no, I'm serious. I'm serious. That's
my number. That's a lucky number. You

should call that.

We could be friends.

Yeah, yeah, right, yeah. Like, you want
to be friends, right? I'm serious.

I'm serious.

All right?

All right.

I'll see you around.

All right, Patty.

All right. See you. See you.

Call me.

All right?

Yeah, if you're lucky.

All right, check it out. This is what
you can do for me. Give me some digits.

-hmm.

Yeah,

so I got me some numbers last night,
too. What?

You got a number? Yeah.

Because he's a shorty.

He is butt -ass ugly, for real.

Angela, that's ugly.

Angela, look, all right? He said he was
sorry.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. He yelled
shit at you, and now you're taking his

number? He apologized.

Oh.

He listened to me.

He's probably listening to his dick.

Angela, don't call me.

Fuck off, all right? I don't even want
to discuss it. All right, all right, all

right. Forget it, forget it. Just, I
hope you have a good plan, all right?

check him out really good. Thanks for
the tip, Emma. I'll take the cigarette,

thank you. All right.

Oh. For real, no for real.

Patty, congratulations.

Fuck off.

You stole my shit. I didn't fucking
steal your shit. Shut the fuck up

now. She's fucking sleeping, all right?

Are you fucking crazy robbing me, huh?

Well, I'm sorry, fucking man. She's
hungry, all right? Give me my fucking

All the money you got for my shit. I
don't have your fucking key.

Where the fuck is my money?

Give me my fucking money right the fuck
now. I can't give you your fucking

money. Where the fuck is it?

Here's your fucking money, man.

Here's your fucking money.

All right? I'm fucking sick of this
shit.

I'm fucking sick of this shit. You're
fucking up my life, all right?

Next time you fucking do this, I swear
to fucking God, man, you're fucking...

You know what, fucking asshole?

There's not gonna be a fucking next
time. You get the fuck out of my place

I'm not fucking kidding now. You kick
the fucking hell out.

I'm fucking not kidding now. You don't
fucking come to me, man.

Long, flowing braids interlocking her
knowledge.

University of the Streets is where she
went to college.

Large, deep -set eyes, knowing all,
hiding nothing, are showing your fake

like you're really saying something.

Nose wide open like some art on display,
smelling all the bullshit coming a mile

away.

Her lips full and ready, either smiling
or in a pucker.

Always ready to spit out truth, she's
one bad motherfucker.

Sometimes it's mistaken that she's
nothing but a diva because she can turn

and be fierce like a freak.

But that's not her steelo everyday type
of thing.

She demands respect to be treated like a
queen.

She's looking for knowledge. Her goal is
to be paid and occasionally rest and

regularly leave.

What you see is what you get. It ain't
cheap. It ain't free. It's all

unmistakably, undeniably me.

This morning I couldn't get out of bed.

I don't even want to get up to go to
school.

Late at night, I lie awake thinking
about the future and I don't see

good.

I just wish I could walk away and come
back and I'd feel differently.

Richard Holmes.

Who's Richard Holmes?

He's a guy at our internship at the
magazine.

I can't even look at him.

I can't believe someone...

To do that, I'd feel so bad.

No matter how hard.

Thanks.

Hi.

Hi.

Here for the cheerleading article.

No, I don't think so.

You are Richard Helms?

Yeah, yeah.

Is there something I can do for you?

Maybe, yeah. Okay. I'm a friend of
Nicky's.

Uh -huh.

Nikki Wells.

Yeah, right.

You knew her?

Yeah, yeah, she worked here.

She doesn't work here anymore?

Uh, no.

She, uh, she had an internship, but it's
over.

Do you know why it ended?

Actually, no, I don't. But, you know, if
you want to talk to the person about

internships, you have to go... Actually,
Nikki's dead.

you read this right here no don't don't
touch it just read it well why don't you

put it i can't see it look why don't you
put it down and then i'll be able to no

just tell me what the fuck it says all
right look why don't you just sit down

and we'll have a little little talk
about whatever i don't think i want to

to you all right because you're fucking
lying okay and you're not going to get

away with this

I just went right up to his desk, and he
just sat there with this empty fucking

smile on his face.

Yeah.

What did he say?

I don't know. I mean, nothing, you know?

Emma, I can't believe it.

I don't know what I was thinking.

I mean, I couldn't stop thinking about
Nicky, you know?

And I guess I just thought if I went
there, he would look guilty, you know,

he was paying for it or something like
that.

Emma, you should have told us, man. We
would have come with you.

I got you.

Let's go.

Right here.

So are we going to just go right into
him or what? I think we should.

I think we should wait.

I mean, it's six o 'clock. We should be
coming out here soon.

All right, that's him. The plaid.

The plaid shirt.

Thank you.

Hi.

Hi. How you doing?

Not so good.

She was in the office the other day.

Yesterday I was in the office.

You know, I think we should have a
little talk.

Okay?

yeah maybe just you and me no no all
right just relax okay no we won't relax

think there's my you might have a
misunderstanding or something no we

don't think you might i know we don't i
know what you did to fucking nikki all

right how could you misunderstand
fucking rape yeah whoa whoa whoa whoa

real big misunderstanding if we're
making some accusations here i think

really big

Instinct leads me to another flow. Every
time I hear a brother call a girl a

bitch or a hoe. Trying to make a sister
feel low. You know all of that got to

go. Now everybody knows there's
exceptions to this rule. And I don't be

mad when we playing it cool.

But don't you be calling me out my name.
I bring wrath to those who disrespect

me like a dame. That's why I'm talking.

One day I was walking down a block of...

I'll see you next time.

I think this is where Tommy will come
from.

What?

I think so. Maybe. For real?

I should have used one of those.

Oh, shit. That's foul.

That's cold. Oh, come on. Like, you
know.

Man, you know I love her.

Shut up. You're just fucking with me.

Maybe we should have used a different
guy.

Exactly.

Seems weird.

You know?

Another week?

Yeah, look all over. Yeah.

Yep.

Fucking college, man. I can't wait.

I know. For real.

Yeah, me too, man. I don't know whether
I'm going to go to Yale or whether I'm

going to Harvard. I just don't know.

And now our valedictorian, Patty Lucci.

Yeah, man. No, they fucking won't even
tell me if I'm going to fucking

Oh, please. What do they want? How many
years has it been? Five,

six, ten.

All right.

I'm up, man.

Look, I know it's been a long time, but
it has not been a century.

Decade, babe.

Decade. What?

A decade?

Ever? I don't know.

Something is just going to fly on by,
you know?

Everything is going to be so different.

Come on, man. It's months different.

This ain't no 90210.

You know? You watch that show? No.

But it's like, they're going to stand on
their palms and they're crying. I saw

one episode, man. That's it.

One episode.

Yeah, right.

You know you watch that shit. No, I
don't. I just saw it once because I...

Anyways, you know when something's so
bad, you just have to fucking keep

watching it.

You're totally bullshitting.

Yeah, but you watched that entire
episode. All right.

You watch it.

You watch it up there with your
grandmama.

No, man. We watch it on 12.

Man.

No.

I'm going to be psyched to get out of
here.

I know.

Every time I hear that cup and train, I
just wonder where the fuck it's going.

The train?

I want to get on it. I know.

As long as you've been here, I've never
gotten on it. You never got on that

train? I've been on that train.

Really? Yeah.

For real? Mm -hmm.

This one.

When?

Like when I was seven.

Hmm.

Where'd you go?

Hmm? Florida.

You went to Florida?

Yeah, man.

I like Florida, man. I like it back in
Florida.

Cool. That must have been a long -ass
ride, though.

To Florida? Tell me about it.

You don't have no money, man. You take
the train.

But better than the bus, though.

Oh, damn.

You never fucking get sick.

Have you ever taken a long bus trip?
Yeah, I took a really long bus ride.

Did you get sick?

Yeah, because you can't eat anything,
you know?

You eat, like, candy bars for, you know,
forever, however long you're on the

train. Yeah, but sitting in the back of
that bus, I get sick. Well, it stinks,

too. Exactly.

I always get to sit next to the toilet.
Yeah.

Man, look at the moon, right?

Oh, man.

Man, I think it's full time.

That's why we feel so warm.

Damn, that train's running in my head.

The moon is really cool.

There she goes. There she goes. Let's
get on it, you guys.

to another flow. Every time I hear a
brother call a girl a bitch or a hoe.

Trying to make us the pillow.

You know all of that got to go. Now
everybody knows there's exceptions to

rule. I don't be getting mad when we
playing it's cool.

But don't you be calling me out my name.
I bring wrath to those who disrespect

me like a dame. That's why I'm talking.

One day I was walking down the block. I
had my cut off shorts on right cause it

was crazy hot. I walked past these dudes
when they passed me. One of them felt

my booty he was mad.

Catching the rap. Then the little one
said, yeah, me bitch. Since he was with

his boys, he tried to break block.

I want some dead in his.

I'll give you an attitude and you will
cry and take it out on me, but that's

about enough.

You put your hands on me again, I'll put
your ass in handcuffs. I guess I fell

so deep in love I grew dependency.

I was too blind to see just how it was
affecting me. All that I knew was you

all the man I had, and I was scared to
let you go, even though you're treating

me bad.

But I don't want to see my kids see me
getting beat down by daddy smacking

all around.

You say I'm nothing without you, but I'm
nothing with you.
