00:09:13,135 --> 00:09:15,221
Check this out, big man.
178
00:09:15,304 --> 00:09:17,807
I ain't ask you for no favors.
179
00:09:17,890 --> 00:09:19,767
I damn sure ain't no fool.
180
00:09:19,850 --> 00:09:21,477
(CHUCKLES)
181
00:09:21,561 --> 00:09:23,980
You don't want to mess with me.
182
00:09:24,063 --> 00:09:26,899
I will throw your ass out
of here like a fucking javelin.
183
00:09:26,983 --> 00:09:29,944
You'll be right back
serving your full sentence.
184
00:09:30,027 --> 00:09:31,737
You understand me, youngblood?
185
00:09:34,615 --> 00:09:36,909
Yeah.
186
00:09:36,993 --> 00:09:38,619
I understand.
187
00:09:41,414 --> 00:09:44,500
Must feel real good
to have your boy back home.
188
00:09:44,584 --> 00:09:47,461
I couldn't take another day
with him in the cage.
189
00:09:47,545 --> 00:09:50,881
And I couldn't thank you enough
for sending us that lawyer.
190
00:09:50,965 --> 00:09:53,884
That's a big order, smart lady.
191
00:09:53,968 --> 00:09:56,095
You know, my Aunt Gina
always used to say
192
00:09:56,178 --> 00:09:57,972
"You want to keep a man out of trouble,
193
00:09:58,055 --> 00:09:59,640
"keep his stomach full

Looks like your sister
and Ricky are hittin' it off.

LAURIE: You got my numbers,
right, Ricky?
200
00:10:19,910 --> 00:10:23,080
So how come y'all don't
play the numbers here?
201
00:10:23,164 --> 00:10:24,832
'Cause I don't shit where I eat.
202
00:10:24,915 --> 00:10:26,584
You could learn somethin' from that.
203
00:10:28,252 --> 00:10:29,629
RANDY: The first time I played your song,
204
00:10:29,712 --> 00:10:31,672
I had my whole class dancing.
205
00:10:31,756 --> 00:10:33,424
Even the girls.
206
00:10:33,507 --> 00:10:34,842
Oh, word?
207
00:10:34,925 --> 00:10:36,761
You was dancing with the girls?
208
00:10:36,844 --> 00:10:39,847
RANDY: I tried to, and then Miss Shesh
came over and took the tape.
209
00:10:39,930 --> 00:10:41,390
Can you make me another copy, Bobby?
210
00:10:41,557 --> 00:10:44,185
Yeah, of course I can
make you another copy.
211
00:10:44,268 --> 00:10:46,145
I can make all your friends copies.
212
00:10:46,228 --> 00:10:48,606
I just bought a bunch
of blank tapes today.
213
00:10:48,689 --> 00:10:50,566

214

217

You know my visit
would not have been complete
218
00:11:01,077 --> 00:11:03,162
without laying my eyes
on the man of the house.
219
00:11:03,245 --> 00:11:04,455

220
00:11:04,538 --> 00:11:07,291
How's your mom? Is she okay?
221
00:11:07,375 --> 00:11:09,126
Yeah, she doing good.
222
00:11:09,210 --> 00:11:10,461

223
00:11:10,544 --> 00:11:13,005
What is this, Pelle Pelle?
224
00:11:13,089 --> 00:11:15,216
Man, you always had the flyest shit.
225
00:11:15,299 --> 00:11:16,759

Aunt Laurie, you know,
228
00:11:20,721 --> 00:11:22,306
you didn't have to buy all this.
229
00:11:22,390 --> 00:11:24,684
Well, I would have, but actually,
230
00:11:24,767 --> 00:11:26,977
it was Bobby that paid for this.
231
00:11:27,061 --> 00:11:29,814
RANDY: Can we eat now?
I'm hungry.
232
00:11:29,897 --> 00:11:31,399
Yo.
233
00:11:31,482 --> 00:11:34,443
I been trying to get you
to check this out.
234
00:11:34,527 --> 00:11:35,653
My new joint I did with Shotgun
235
00:11:35,736 --> 00:11:37,571
playing at the record store today.
236
00:11:37,655 --> 00:11:39,240
I might even get them to sell that shit.
237
00:11:39,323 --> 00:11:41,826
Where you been at lately?
238
00:11:41,909 --> 00:11:43,536
Yeah, my moms got me
puttin' in overtime
239
00:11:43,619 --> 00:11:45,996

Yeah.
244
00:11:58,884 --> 00:12:01,929
You told me to step my game up,
245
00:12:02,012 --> 00:12:04,306
so I did.
246
00:12:05,474 --> 00:12:07,852
Well, we need to get back
to the real game.
247
00:12:13,023 --> 00:12:15,943
Yo, all the rent and bills are paid off.
248
00:12:17,445 --> 00:12:19,071
You know that, right?
249
00:12:20,030 --> 00:12:22,450
We got food in the fridge.
250
00:12:23,284 --> 00:12:26,203
So how is this not the real game?
251
00:12:29,749 --> 00:12:33,586
Selling weed to Wall Street
is not a model with growth.

BOBBY: Growth?
253

This shit the easiest money
we ever made, yo.
256

We ain't competin' with no street niggas.

And the cops ain't even
comin' around, son.

259

Well, Ma don't think it's bullshit.
265
00:13:07,828 --> 00:13:09,997

'cause of you two niggas.
