Previously on Lincoln heights...

I was just offering Cassie
a ride to school.

In that?
She may not look like much.

But I'm fixing her up.

She's gonna be my ticket

into auto design school.

You tried to talk Eddie

out of marrying me.

I just wanted you
to be happy.

Hi, I'm Luc bisgaier.

Are you the manager?

And music producer,
among other things.

Can I help you?

Yes, you can help me by getting
my painting off your wall.

If it were my painting,
I would have taken it

the minute
I saw it here.

Oh, so you're
an artist now?

(Eddie)
So what happened?

Gangs, still trying to take
over the neighborhood.

If you press charges, you could
be putting yourself in danger.

So? Nobody else
wants to stand up.

They're all scared.

I wish my dad
was still around.

Jarone, I'm here
if you need me.

Who's the cop that
won't back down

when there's danger
all around?

Dad.
Dad.

You're damn right.

Well, someone's excited
to get back to work.

(Eddie)
I am locked,

loaded,
and ready for action.

Come here and give me
some satisfaction.

Oh, well, you know
I do love a man in uniform.

Mmm!

(Coleman)
Hey,

is that the way you behave

in front of your children?

Coleman.

Hey, daddy.
Hey, hon.

(Coleman)
Good to see you, Eddie.

We didn't catch you
at a bad time, did we?

No, of course not.

Grandma and grandpa
are here

for tomorrow night's
fundraiser.

I know that.

Mom's organized
a million of these,

so when she volunteered
to help the clinic,

I couldn't say no.

Where is your mother?

She's out
arguing with the cab driver

about her make-up bag.

Apparently

he lost her Louis Vuitton.

How does a man leave behind
an $800 piece of luggage?

Beverly, how are you?

Mourning the demise
of my Louis.

Jennifer, you're looking fit.

Hi. It's nice to see
you too, mom.

Hi, grandma.

Lizzie? Taylor?

Oh, how did you two
get so big?

Cassie? Look at you.
You're a perfect size four!

Tay, why don't you take
the bags upstairs to your room?

Actually,
we'll need two rooms.

Why?

Mom? Dad?

Your mother and I
are getting a divorce.

Wait. What?

A divorce, dear.
It's fine.

Which room is yours
again, Tay?

Hold on a second. Why are
you getting a divorce?

Dad, what did you do?

He didn't do anything,
Jennifer.

Your father and I have given
this a great deal of thought

and decided
it's what's best.

Let's talk about this when
you get home from work, okay?

Meanwhile, let's get
the suitcases upstairs

so your grandmother
and I can see

if we remembered
to pack some gifts.

Grandma,
you can have my room.

Oh, thank you, dear.

Coleman, try not to pace
the hall all night.

I swear, that man hasn't
slept a wink since he retired.

Well, they do know
how to keep it interesting.

Dude, would you relax?

This car is your golden

Right now, I'm more concerned
about what Cassie's gonna think.

Why?

The car's for her.

I'm giving it to her.

Have you gone out
of your freakin' mind?

This car is a masterpiece!

Come on, man,
you tell him.

Yo, keep me out of it.

I'm telling you, Charles.

No girl is worth

This girl is.

Thanks for coming

Where is he?

I tried calling momma Taylor,

What about Dana?

He says she's out of town

You get an I.D.
On the perp?

The kid ain't
saying nothing.

You know how it is
with these little gs.

No, I don't.
Why don't you enlighten me?

The kid's
a known pot dealer, Sutton.

I see him on his corner
every morning.

Now the guys who beat him
must've taken his stash.

Otherwise
I'd have him in lockup.

I know this kid.
No way he's dealing.

Let me get a run at him.
He'll talk to me.

All right, well,
you better make it fast,

'cause sooner or later,
the only talking

this kid's gonna be doing
is through plexiglass.

Jarone?

You all right?

Look, I know you're scared,

but if you can just give us
a name, maybe we could--

You could what? help me?
Protect me?

Would that be so bad?

Jarone, please,

just talk to me.

Man, the last time
I saw you,

you promised
you'd be there for me.

But all you did
was disappear.

I ain't saying nothing

Uncle's in jail,

Kid's gonna be
a real upstanding citizen.

Was I talking to you?

Eddie, I know

I mean, are you sure
jarone wasn't dealing?

No, but how
can I help him

Well, you're
a better man than me.

And this surprises you?

Man, look around.

Does it look like I've got

Can we talk in private?

thinks jarone's been
dealing pot on the streets.

Oh, that's ridiculous.

I know, but that's how
they're writing it up.

You and I both know
what this is about.

I'm going to court
tomorrow to testify

against that hoodlum
who broke into my house.

And that gang came after
jarone as a warning to you?

I'm an old lady.

They know that I don't care
what happens to me.

But if anything else
happens to jarone--

It won't.

You don't know that.

Maybe I shouldn't testify.

Not if it's gonna
put him in danger.

Don't make
any decisions yet.

Now let me see
what I can do.

You have got
to protect him, Eddie.

You owe that to him.

You owe that
to this family.

I'll empty these drawers
for you, grandma.

And plus, you can have
the right half of the closet.

I had no idea
you were so talented.

Not that it matters.

They cancelled the art
program at my school.

That's why I'm home now.

Art class
was first period.

You have talent, Cassie,

and your passion
is evident in your work.

Don't let anyone stand
in the way of your dreams.

Don't make
the same mistakes I made.

What mistakes?

I want a job.

So what makes you think
I'd hire you?

Because you're busy

And plus,
I'll work for free.

Plus tips.
Well, nothing's free.

Well,
give me art lessons.

Teach me how
to make my work better

and how to get noticed.

Okay, do you even know
how to make coffee?

Duh. I was making it.

Without one of these?

[both laugh lightly]

I'll learn.
I'm a fast learner.

Okay, fine.

Why don't you
COME BACK AT 2:00,

and we'll see
what's what.

2:00?
Yeah.

Yeah, if I'm gonna
give you a tryout,

we'll have to do it

Is that gonna be

Well, actually, I have--

Princess, I've got

So what do you think?

It's beautiful.

Come on, Cassie.

You're an artist.

I want to know
what you think.

No holding back.

Well, it's most definitely
a work of art,

but every work of art
needs a signature.

A signature?
Mm-hmm.

Not literally.

Something
to let the world know

that it's a Charles
antoni creation.

Something simple.
Iconic.

Iconic?
Mm-hmm.

Like what?

Here.

Like this.

I like it.

It's a Chinese

You mind
if I borrow this?

Mm-mm.

So I'll see you
back here after class?

I can't.

I have a tryout for a job
at the coffee house.

Cassie, that's great.

Yeah, except for Luc wants me
TO MEET HIM AT 2:00.

Aren't you
in chem class at two?

Yeah,
and I have a midterm.

So you're just gonna
blow it off?

Cassie--
Look,

Luc is giving me free
art lessons in exchange for--

Wait a minute.
Art lessons?

Yeah.
He's a gifted artist.

Considering the fact

that the school
shut down the art program,

I could use the help.

If I don't start thinking
of myself

as a real artist,
then no one else will.

I know you're
a real artist, Cassie.

But I think that missing
school is a bad idea.

You're right.
Of course you're right.

Hey, it looks good.

Here, let me help you.

I'm a grown man, Beverly.
I can help myself.

You all right?

Yeah, fine.

I'm just upset about
Cassie ditching school.

Are you sure that's all?

Come on, Jenn, talk to me.

It's my mother.

40 years of marriage
down the drain,

and she's acting
like nothing's happened.

The worst part is that she
won't even talk to me about it.

Her marriage is ending.

It's not an easy thing
to talk about.

I know.

Things haven't been easy

But mom...

Get in here, please.

Your teacher called

this afternoon about
the chemistry test you missed.

I'm sorry,
but I had a good reason.

What could possibly justify
you missing a midterm exam?

I had a lot on my mind.

Look, I'm sorry.

I promise I'll take
the make-up exam.

Oh, I know you will.

And you'll also be doing
dinner dishes for a month.

Go upstairs

You're late

Where's Lizzie?

She hasn't

Tay, go upstairs
and get your sister.

I'll do it.

Sit.

What are you doing
in my room?

Close the door, Tay.

Are you going
through grandpa's stuff?

Yes. Close the door.

What's going on?

I think grandpa's sick.

I--I saw him
taking these.

He said
they're vitamins.

Flute-uh-mide?

Doesn't sound like any
vitamin I ever heard of.

I know.

That's why we need
to find out what it is.

Well, big man,
why aren't you eating?

Ain't hungry.

Ain't hungry?

Baby, he doesn't have to eat
if he doesn't want to.

(Eddie)
Now hold on. We had
a deal, remember?

You come here once a week
for dinner, like family.

Ain't no deal if I don't
have a choice.

So that's the way
you see it?

I'm forcing you to be here?

Yeah, and just 'cause you
and my grandma

made me come here don't
mean you can make me eat.

[Coleman clears his throat]

Eddie, can I talk to you
a minute?

I don't blame you.

People telling me
what to do,

huh, I wouldn't eat either.

The problem is,

all your pride has got you
is a cold taco.

But they aren't all cold.

Go on.

You know you want it.

[sighs]

I hate to say this, Eddie,

but that boy
is nothing but trouble.

Excuse me?

Look, I know it's none of
my business--

Well, at least
we can agree on that.

I'm just not comfortable
having someone like that

around my grandchildren.

Someone like that?

Now, you don't know
the first thing about jarone.

He's a good kid.

He just needs
a little bit of guidance.

I see the effort
you're making.

But that boy doesn't
need your coddling.

No? What does he need?

He needs a job.

I appreciate you
hanging out with me today.

It's not like I have
much of a choice.

Look, I know it's tough
with you and your mom.

It's hard
when money's tight.

So?

So I talked
to a buddy of mine.

He's willing to give you
a job at his hardware store.

What? Hardware store?

Look, I know
it's a big step,

but Jake's a good guy.

Just promise me
you'll give it a shot.

I ain't promising nothing.

I never asked you
for no damn job.

Hey, where do you
think you're going?
Let go of me!

(Eddie)
Where do you think
you're going?

Let go of me!

Good, you finally caught
the little monster--

The one that
broke into my store.

Get over there.

I'm telling you, Eddie,
this is one of the kids

who broke in my store
during the riot.

Yo, man, this old weez
don't know what he's talk--

Who you calling
an old weez?

Jake, you sure
about this?

I saw him
with my own eyes.

He came in here and he took
a roll of chicken wire.

What's a boy like that
gonna do

with a roll
of chicken wire?

I don't blame you
for being upset,

but I'm in
kind of a bind here.

I made jarone's family
a promise.

If you press charges, I won't
be able to keep that promise.

That boy needs to pay
for what he's done.

I hear you,

but some bad guys
are after jarone.

Connected guys.

He goes into the system now,

he may not come out alive.

See how it goes.

If it doesn't work out,
press charges.

Make him pay his debt
to society.

To hell with society.

He can pay his debt to me.

Whoa, you're in early.

I want to get this done.

I'm giving Cassie

did you sleep here
last night?

What? No.
Of course not.

Come on, man.

I know you've been
locking horns

but we ain't bonded

If my uncle Fernando
catches you--

I got it, Frankie.
It won't happen again.

(Frankie)
Hey.

Did you tell him?

I told you,
I got nothin' to say.

About what?

It's about your girlfriend.

What about her?

We saw her at the coffee house
YESTERDAY AT ABOUT 2:00.

It wasn't Cassie.
She was in chemistry class.

Mom, where are you going?

You can't just leave.

I'm not feeling well,
dear.

The amuse bouche must
have disagreed with me.

Mom, wait.

You can't
keep doing this.

You connect with total
strangers every day,

help people
you've never even met,

but I am your daughter.

Sooner or later,

you're gonna have
to start talking to me.

I'll see you at home,
Jennifer.

Can't you at least tell me
why you want this divorce?

What makes you think
I'm the one who wants it?

(Cassie)
Okay.

The cash register's
balanced,

and the espresso machines
are all spotless.

Anything else you need?

Don't you want to hang
and check out the rehearsal?

(Kevin Michael)
Yeah.

Stick around.

We're working
on some new tracks

for our set
on Friday night,

and I could use
an unjaded opinion.

I'm Kevin Michael.
Nice to meet you.

Hey, I'm Cassie.

So come on, stay.
Check us out.

All right?

All right.
Okay.

Let's go.

[beatboxing with guitars]

Are you gonna stand there

or are you gonna help me
close this place down?

Come on.

Charles,
what are you--

Come on, we're leaving.

What are you doing?
I can't go.

I have work to do.

Not anymore you don't.

What is that
supposed to mean?

It means ever since
you started working here,

I don't even know you
anymore.

Charles, I've only been
working here two days.

I'm not kidding, Cassie.

Let's go.

Have you lost your mind?

Hey, friend, I think
you'd best let her go

and take a breath.

I'm not your friend.
And I'm not asking.

You two, stop it!

Get him out of here,
right now!

Charles,
You have to leave. Now!

I can't believe you're
putting that guy over me!

I can't believe
you're doing this!

You could cost me my job!

Please!
Charles, go!

Ice cream, mom?

Boy, you must be
more upset than I thought.

Guilty pleasure.

Have it your way, mom.
I'm done arguing.

[sighs]

[door opens]

Cassie?

Hi, mom.

I'm gonna go to bed.

Come in here.

Cassie, have you
been crying?

Cassie.

Talk to me.

(Beverly)
Cassandra,

give me your hand,
baby.

When a person has someone

who cares about her,

someone who cares
enough to listen,

only a fool would keep
her troubles

to herself.

Come on.
Come on.

Ever since
you were a baby,

you loved
chocolate ice cream.

Charles and I had a fight.

It was really bad.

It was bad.

I kicked him out.

Why?

Because he was being
completely irrational.

Mom, he almost
cost me my job.

Grandma,
you said never let anybody

stand between you
and your dreams.

It's okay, baby, it's okay.

You did the right thing,
Cassie.

If Charles loves you,

he'll support you
no matter what.

Is that why you and grandpa
are getting a divorce?

Because
he doesn't support you?

That's...

Not something we talk about.

I hear the fundraiser
went well.

Mm.

Well, we did
what we came to do.

Is there something
you want to talk about?

Lizzie tells me
she saw you

taking some multivitamins
yesterday.

You tell Beverly?

That I'm taking vitamins?

That you have cancer.

Ah.

So Lizzie rolled
on me, huh?

You didn't answer
the question.

That's because
it's none of your business.

Fair enough.

But you know I can't
keep this from Jenn.

I was diagnosed
six months ago.

That's why I retired

and left the bench.

You think you're
protecting Beverly

by keeping this from her?

I'm protecting her
by giving her

the kind of man
she deserves.

The kind of husband
that supported

and took care of her
for 40 years,

not some sick old man,

which is what I've become.

You want her to see you
as a man?

Tell her the truth.

(Jenn)
Come on, mom.

When a person has someone
who cares about her,

she'd be a fool to keep
her troubles to herself.

[sighs]

I--

[clears throat]

I wanted to be
a social worker.

All I ever wanted to do
was help people.

You do help people, mom.

I gave up my dreams
to marry your father.

That was a choice I made
because I loved him,

but I hated
that I had to make it,

and I took it out on you.

Mom.

For years, I watched
you and your sister

living my dream.

You never said a word.
I didn't even--

What was I supposed to do?

Tell you that I blamed you
for my unhappiness?

And now that
your father's retired,

after everything
I've sacrificed,

he doesn't

look at me anymore.

He doesn't touch me.

He won't even talk to me,

except to tell me
he wants a divorce.

It's not quite
so simple.

Oh, Cassie, we, um...

No, no, no,
no, no, no.

I want you all
to hear this.

Beverly, I didn't stop
showing you affection

because I don't love you.

I'm sick.

I have cancer.

Oh, my God.
(Jenn)
dad.

I thought if I could get
through this on my own,

you would never, ever
have to worry about me.

You silly old man.

It's my job
to worry about you.

It always has been.

You're going
to get through this,

you hear me?

But you're gonna have
to let me take care of you.

What about our marriage?

I don't know, Coleman.

I don't know.

I'm...

I'm going to need
more time

to heal myself.

Beverly, you take
all the time you need.

I'm not going anywhere.

(Eddie)
Everything's
going to be fine.

What would you do?

If you had
a life-threatening illness,

would you keep it
from me?

I could never keep something
like that from you.

Good.

Plus, I think
you'd hurt me if I did.

Mmm.
Could be kinky.

[laughs]
[phone ringing]

[phone ringing]

Hello.

Hey, Lund.

Yeah, thanks.

Is everything okay?

We just found out
who got the call

to Jake's hardware store
yesterday.

You sure you want
to do this here?

Where the hell were you
yesterday?

Excuse me?

Jake's hardware,
yesterday afternoon.

Your response time
was 37 minutes.

If you know my response time,
then you know

it was because I was on
a traffic stop.

A traffic stop
that lasted 37 minutes?

It got heated.

What's this about?
Jarone Clemmons.

The little pot dealer
who told you to bug off?

He told you to your face
he didn't need your help.

He refused to I.D.
The guys who beat him.

And you're coming in here,
stepping up to me?

You're mad
at the wrong guy.

Oh, no, I got the right guy.

You're the guy

who only cares
about his clearance rate.

Book 'em and bag 'em.

They're just
street trash, right?

Get him out of here, Lund.

Jarone, come over here.

I told you not to run off
like that.

Eddie.

Momma, you came.

I'm proud of you.

Well, I'm only here
because they subpoenaed me.

Mrs. Taylor, we're about
to get started.

Thank you.

It's okay if you want
to tell the truth.

I can take care of myself.

Well, you shouldn't
have to.

(A.D.A. Margolies)
You say you got
a pretty good look

at the man who broke into
your house, Mrs. Taylor.

Do you see that man
in this courtroom today?

No, I don't.

Are you sure?

The person who broke
into my house is not a man.

He's a coward

who hides behind
guns and violence

to get his way.

He and all his
no-account friends

have this whole community
so scared,

they think they can
get away with anything.

I see.

And can you identify
that coward?

(momma Taylor)
That's him.
Right there.

Way to go,
momma Taylor.

She's still got game.

Yeah, but for how long?

You got a problem, cop?

No problem.

I just came to tell you
that from this moment forward,

you are your crew

are in the jarone Clemmons
protection business.

If he so much
as gets a hangnail.

You pay.
Right.

You gonna come
after all of us?

No. Just you.

And when I do,

I won't be wearing
a badge.

Yeah? Well, maybe we
come after you first.

Who gonna stop us?

I am.
Me too.

Ditto.

Come on, let's go.

You know they're just
gonna keep coming back.

(Lund)
Yeah.

But now we got backup.

They're starting
to mow their lawns.

I heard you doubled
your donation

to the clinic last night.

Ah, it's all
for a good cause.

You know,
I owe you an apology.

I always thought that
you had it easy with Jenn.

A relationship like that,

it takes work.

You gonna be all right?

For the first time
since I was sick,

Beverly and I are talking.

I mean really talking.

So yes, whatever happens,

I'm gonna be just fine.

Thank you.

Um...

I'm gonna go see
about dinner.

[chuckles]
Yeah, you do that.

[chuckles]

You coming?

In a minute.

(jarone)
In every war,
there are weapons.

Gats. Nines. Hate.
Intimidation.

Don't matter who you are.

Everybody's strappin'.

But sometimes,
some days,

it goes the other way,

and the weapons
are hope, trust,

and understanding.

Maybe those are the weapons
that can win the war...

Or maybe it ain't
supposed to be won at all.

Maybe the point is

to keep on going,

keep on fighting,

and never, ever give up.
