[Dru]
Things been a little shaky

since D.C. Joe went missing.

[Dru] I just want you
to be real with me.

[Everett] Fine.
Let's go outside.

[Dru] For what?

'Cause all we fucking do
is hide.

Hide from your team,
hide from the fucking world--

You're right, okay?
You're right.

But I'm trying, okay?
I'm trying.

[Lil' Guap] Oof!

Dru!

I had no idea that the guy
that they found

in the pool was GTG.

[Carrie] Your family
are at the game.

A body shows up,
and you get threatened.

It's not a coincidence.

You don't know my family.

I know you're not like them.

Let me help you.

After the game,
a few of the players

from the basketball team

went to celebrate
at a club.

They were jumped
and assaulted by a gang.

And if Zeke gets in trouble
for this swimming pool shit,

your name will be
the first name outta my mouth.

Rico may be your boss,

but I'm Monet Tejada.

You fucked
with the wrong bitch.

Okay, this beef with Monet
got you twisted.

Rico's coming up personally
to make our drop.

New York.

[hums]

It has been a minute.

[Ott] I figured out
what you're doing, okay?

If Tariq St. Patrick's guilty
of some drug offense, great,

but you still need
to nail Tasha.

Let's go right fucking now.
I'm serious.

Bro, you do not want
to fight me, a'ight?

Just shut up and listen to me.

She's snooping around
for her fucking uncle

that's prosecuting my mother.

Fuck outta here.
No way.

That's shit.

I saw a picture of that guy
at Riley's house.

Exactly.
You fucking Nancy Drew.

I don't have your money.

You know better
than that shit, Tariq.

I had to do something
for my mother.

She always comes first, Monet,

so I broke your rules.

[Cane]
You got product already?

It's Monet's shipment.

You stealing
my fucking family's product?

Rico gave it to me.

He said he was looking
for a new distro.

He's taking Monet out the game.

[rapid gunfire]

No!

Dru, Dru, baby,
please don't do this to me.

I owe you Diana's life,

but me and you,
we ain't done.

Saxe is calling you
to the stand.

-[Tariq] How'd you get that?
-[Paula] Saxe took it.

Davis is setting you up.

Tameika, I need your help.

[Tameika] Saxe knows.

He's calling you
to the stand.

Now I'm your attorney.

Run, Cane.

Run before I put you down
myself.

I did everything
you wanted me to.

Don't test me, boy.

You pull,
you'll make it easy for me.

Your mother is dead.

On everything,
I'ma see her ass.

Who the fuck's riding with you

that got the balls

Don't need no balls, bitch,

just a piece of steel
and the upper hand.

I hear you that punk-ass nigga
that shot up my bar last night.

No offense,
but that's what you get

for hanging with a fucking rat.

Like I give a fuck.
You merked my mans.

I should smoke your ass
on that alone.

Don't shoot him.
Don't shoot him.

Oh, do what you gotta do,

because Tariq,

if you let me go,
I'ma go after Tasha.

I ain't never gonna stop.

I know.

That's why I made sure
she's far enough

somewhere
you can't track her down.

I don't want you dead,
Uncle Tommy, okay?

Chip off the old block, huh?
