[Saxe] What are you wearing?

Seriously?

A'ight, you're just mad

'cause you can't pull this off.

What? You know what?

Accurate as that may be,

I thought we were trying to keep

our little arrangement
under wraps.

Look, you and I can be seen
together out in public.

I mean, it's all
plea negotiations,

as far as anyone's concerned.

And every single time,
our negotiations break down,

and we go back to court.

To put Tariq St. Patrick away.

Exactly, but we gotta get
the right jury.

Ah! I've got
some thoughts on that.

- Boom!
- Ooh.

- Nice.
- Huh?

- Impressive, even.
- Thank you.

Mine's digital. And bigger.

[Davis laughs]

Who are the most likely
to let Tasha go?

They need to look like me.

You know,
the minute Tasha walks,

I'm putting the cuffs on Tariq,

right there in the courtroom.

She won't be happy,

and she may even suspect
you're involved.

Tasha can get as mad at me
as she wants to

from the comforts
of her own home.

I'll have the W in my pocket,
and you'll have your killer.

Everybody wins.

Well, except Tariq.

[cell phone buzzes]

- Ma, I'm in class.
- [Tasha] It won't take long.

I'm going to trial, Tariq.

I told Davis
that I wanna take a deal.

What? No!

He said no, okay?

He still thinks that we can win.

I don't understand it,
but that's what he says.

[Tariq] A'ight,
then we gotta trust him.

And, Ma, if anyone's
gonna step forward,

it's gonne be me, not you.

[Tasha] Well, I hope he's right.

I hope neither one of us
has to go to jail.

I gotta go. I gotta go.
I gotta go.

Well, look who's on time
for once!

Ha. And makin' the rest
of us look bad.

Yeah, Tariq, what are you
doing here so early?

I'm trying to catch up.

Shit, nigga, it's gonna take
more than one day to do that.

[chuckles] A'ight, well, you
did the reading, right, boo?

What side you on?

What did you say, Tariq?

Oh, I'm sorry,
I was just asking...

No, I'm glad to start
the debate early.

So what about it, BruShaundria?

Locke believed that people
were fundamentally just.

Would you agree?

He trippin'.

One trip to the hood,

and you can tell
that Hobbes is right.

People are just out
for themselves.

And, Lauren, would you agree?

Well, I'd like to think
that Locke has a point, but...

I actually think we construct
our own societies and rules

to keep ourselves
from our fundamental nature.

Which is...

Well, some people
are better than others, but...

everybody's
just out for themselves.

[Ashley] That's not true.

People help each other
all the time.

Like, what about that scene
in The Dark Knight

where the two boats,
inmates and citizens,

- don't blow each other up?
- That's a movie.

We're taught that murder
is wrong.

We're taught that.
It's not natural.

Locke is clear
about the division

between right and wrong.

Society has rules,
and we all know them.

Every society, every person.

Even little kids.

That's a hundred percent cap.

Cap.

I mean... I agree.

Professor Milgram,
you know what I mean.

There's a bright line
between good and evil,

right and wrong.

And we know that
because we as humans

are fundamentally
and naturally good.

And what do you think
about it, Tariq?

Who is right, Locke or Hobbes?

Are we fundamentally
good or bad?

What about your friends,
your family?

Um...

I'll pose the question
to all of you,

make it more personal.

Are you fundamentally
good or bad?

Now, gentlemen,

having been through
pretrial motions with you,

I can only imagine how...

intense this jury selection
is going to get.

May I suggest some decorum here

so that neither of you
ends up with a Batson charge

or in contempt?

If the U.S. Attorney
can remain civil...

Hey, Ma, how was court?

Do you know Francis Johnson,
2-Bit?

[Tariq]
Oh, yeah, one of Tommy's men.

- Yeah, yeah, I seen him before.
- [Tasha] He was part

of the plan to get you back
from Vincent.

He brought you up
in court today.

- Why would he do that?
- [Tasha] I don't know, 'Riq.

Is there any way that Davis
could know

what really happened?

Any way at all that he knows
about you getting mixed up

with Vincent
or about you and Ray Ray?

- Anything at all?
- No, Ma, there's no way.

Look, you were the one that
said we have to trust Davis.

I know, okay?
I know I did say that.

And the testimony
did make me look good.

[Tariq] A'ight, so then
that's all that matters.

Look, Ma, don't worry
about anything.

Everything'll be fine.

[Tasha] Yeah, okay.

I just hope you're right.
