[YOUNG DAVID] You try to track it down.

That moment that it all changed.

[PHONE RINGS]

- David Young. - [JESSIE] There you are, JG.

- You in a hurry? - Hey, man!

- Everything all right, officer? - It's cool, that's my brother.

[CHUCKLES]

[JG]Dave, I'm going to The Ville.

[JG] Y'all cut that shit out!

- Stop! - [GUNSHOT]

We've got some good news, JG is breathing on his own.

- He's still with us. - [SCHOOL BELL]

The plural of octopus is actually octopuses not octupi.

- Your elbow's ashy. - Your life is ashy.

Come on, people, high school classes won't be this precise.

Maybe if you get into Hurston.

[SKY] Yo, man of war, your salvation is far from here.

Focus on that straight line to Hurston.

[SOFT MUSIC]

[SCREAMS]

[SOFT MUSIC]

[YOUNG JG LAUGHS] Ah! Hey, yo, Ma!

[YOUNG DAVID] I thought some of them dudes was cool.

[YOUNG JG] You're the cool one, Dai.

[SOFT MUSIC]

[BOYS LAUGHS]

[RONDO] Ain't nobody gonna snitch, nigga.

[LUIS] I was just trying to help your ignorant ass.

[RONDO] There he goes getting all emotional.

[LUIS] Always looking for a handout.

[BOYS] Oh!

[BOY] Dai gonna be a pops, he was running with Sky.

[JG] Dai, I'm going to The Ville.

Stop, stop!

[GUNSHOT]

[SOFT MUSIC]

[BOYS LAUGH]

[BOYS] Three, two, one, go!

[HIP-HOP MUSIC]

How the hell is he so fast?

Yeah, come on, D!

Rondo, I know you gotta be tired of losing by now.

Get off his dick, Luis.

Hey, my roommate whupped y'all, pay up.

And respect the bet, I want my snacks.

Our snacks, don't forget about your agent.

From Hurston to the Olympics.

Oh, my God.

[LUIS] That's the 2012, baby!

[BOYS] Oh, watch out! Yo, go, go!

Double or nothing, D-money!

[YOUNG DAVID] I be barely running full speed.

David run like the cops chasing.

[BOYS LAUGH]

Hmm.

You doing too much.

Making sure he knows I'm not with that gay shit.

Why would he? You do something to confuse him?

[BOYS LAUGH]

Shut up, David.

I'm just saying, can you tell he actually likes you?

I don't know. No, shut up.

[BOYS LAUGH]

- You don't have him as a study partner. - That's what you mad at?

You need to be mad you failing.

Hey, I'm happy to trade.

I don't need help in geography or I would be down to.

Besides, I had a best friend in middle school

I think was gay.

You had a best friend that was gay?

It ain't matter, he had my back.

Isn't that the point?

I think you making too much sense for these dummies, D.

I'm gonna get a head start to class

since this bag getting a little heavy today.

[BOYS LAUGH]

[BELL RINGS]

[MRS. CHILDS] Can anyone tell me the difference

between Hamlet and The Lion King?

[RONDO] One's boring and one isn't.

[CLASS LAUGHS]

Boring is to say

that you lack imagination, Mr. Perez.

You needed someone to take Hamlet, turn him into a lion,

have him dance on top of an ostrich,

while singing about being a king

for you to be interested in the same story.

Being king sounds good to me.

And that's how I know you didn't do your homework.

[CLASS] Ooh!

Murder, betrayal, sickness.

The kings are all taken out.

Gentlemen, you need to stop being lazy readers,

it won't help you on your project.

Shakespeare's text gives us everything we need to play with.

He knew how difficult it can be for us to suspend reality.

He addresses our ability to do that very thing

in the prologue from Henry Five.

"O for a Muse of fire,

that would ascend

the brightest heaven of invention."

Right, now what...

"A kingdom for a stage, princes to act,

and monarchs to behold the swelling scene.

And then should the warlike Harry, like himself,

assume the port of Mars, and at his heels,

leashed in like hounds, should famine, sword, and fire

crouch for employment."

[STUTTERS] My bad, I didn't mean to wake you up.

I was just...

Didn't you just wash your sheets?

Yeah, I was just...

You gotta sleep on your right side.

They had a Twitter thread about it.

A thread about what?

Wet dreams, nigga.

Relax, you good.

We live at an all-boys school.

Ain't nobody getting any pussy around here.

I'm gonna tell you my trick but don't judge me.

Stay ready!

[LAUGHS] Yo, you crazy.

You gonna wash mine too?

Hell no! Nigga, you nasty.

Yo, we hitting the cafeteria when you get back?

Nah, gotta study for this test.

Damn, I forgot that's today.

I gotta pass or I fail this nine weeks.

Second year at Hurston is the hardest.

I still think you crazy for transferring here.

Hey, you get your calculator fixed?

Nah, that shit is completely broken.

I'm gonna have to talk to Dr. P.

Hopefully, I can borrow one of hers.

I know she lets us for class, but for the actual test?

I think you better off asking the devil for ice water.

Well, my thirsty ass ain't got no other option.

That last calculator like $200.

And I could barely afford the first one.

Wait, you can use my old one.

You been holding out?

Nah, I figured you had a better option.

It works but make sure you keep

an eye on the charge or it's gonna die.

Say less, I'm putting this thing on the charger now.

- Thank you. - No doubt.

You know we always gotta look out for each other.

[TICKING]

Fuck.

[TICKING]

I'm sorry, it died.

It's always something with you.

Charge it and sit down.

[SOFT MUSIC]

[CLOCK TICKING]

[UPBEAT MUSIC OVER HEADPHONES]

I knew it was you.

Had to make sure you weren't murdering calculators.

Looking funny and being funny, ain't the same thing.

Hey, you had me stressed just looking at you.

I've been through worse.

At least I finished.

You sure you good?

Back in my element now.

Spent most of freshman year in here.

- You got a favorite? - A book of poetry my friend...

[LAUGHING]

my friend Sky gave me.

I'm mad I didn't bring it.

Bring it back next time you go home.

Bet.

You ready?

For what?

I'm at work.

The class prank.

That's why you in here? What prank?

Hey, you can read about it or be about it.

Why you want me to go so bad?

It won't be as fun without you.

No one can see me leaving.

Bet.

[CONTEMPORARY MUSIC]

The whole school is gonna see this.

It's gonna be ridiculous.

Y'all are the fucking worst.

How do you not know what ether is?

Just Google the shit.

What do we need ether for?

We're gonna light the pool on fire.

Look, I looked up a video on YouTube.

I'm gonna get a GoPro, buy us some nun costumes

like that movie The Town.

It's lit. What you think, D-money?

Nobody ever thinks of doing something in the pool.

- That's genius. - See?

We gotta be ready 'cause they're gonna call the police to fuck with us

and I think arson in Florida is like, what,

30 years in prison?

So if anybody snitch, y'all better be ready...

Yo, I'm not trying to deal with the cops.

My dad would murder me.

Oh, yeah, no, that makes sense.

You wanna do something the whole school can see?

Hell yeah.

I think I got an idea based off yours.

We're listening.

Poncho, Fred,

y'all know where we can get

some flex seal tape from around here?

Oh, don't worry about supplies, I got that taken care of.

Bet, this is what we're gonna need.

[UPBEAT MUSIC]

You must be allergic to fun.

I'm having fun watching.

I just can't tread water like that.

You'll never be able to if you don't try it.

That's fine with me,

because soon as I start to panic, it ain't no fun.

I hate that feeling.

- Fun? - Panic.

You trust me to teach you?

[BOYS LAUGH]

Oh, my God.

This shit is beautiful.

Let's go, let's go.

[BOYS LAUGH AND CHATTER]

[SOFT MUSIC]

David, I love you, man.

I don't know how we gonna top it next year.

When Luis told us you was cool, I wasn't sure.

I couldn't see past this lame library boy

that nobody paid attention to last year.

I didn't think you belonged.

Now, I can't believe we went a year at Hurston without you.

A toast to D-money.

[FRED] Yes, sir. D-money.

- [RONDO] Oh! - [BOYS LAUGH]

[BOYS] Come on, come on, catch up.

[LUIS] Wait up, wait up.

[SAM] You're here because we encourage everyone

to take an active role

in protecting our natural environment.

In these seagrass beds

you will find all types of creatures today.

These nets will be your tool to help get a closer look.

Young man, your focus and attention would be appreciated.

Please be careful not to stomp.

You want to shuffle your feet.

Ah! Hey, girl!

Hey, boy. Watch where you step.

[RONDO] Damn, Poncho, she was gonna kick your ass with that net.

I don't even care, she's fine as fuck.

She is fine.

I know her. Marissa.

We went to middle school together.

Yo, you gotta go talk to her.

- Nah, she's kinda... - Are you seeing what we seeing?

Mm-hmm.

All right, D, go get 'em.

[SOFT MUSIC]

- David. - Hey, Marissa.

I wasn't expecting to see you out here on a field trip.

It's not a field trip for me,

I volunteer for research purposes.

I know, 'cause you love water and animals and stuff, right?

Octopuses, not octopi.

- You remember. - Of course.

You enjoying Hurston?

First year was rough getting used to.

Not too many of us out there but it's better now.

- How's MAST? - I love it.

I'm the first sophomore president

of the Black Students Unified and the Book Club.

Okay, I see you, Oprah.

[BOYS CHANTING MOCKINGLY]

David, did you come over here for something in particular?

Nah, I'm just happy to see you.

I mean, it's been, like, two years.

You didn't have to talk to me to see me. You could wave.

I would've waved right back and kept it moving like the sea.

Wait, why you acting like that? I didn't do nothing but be nice.

- That's what you're doing? - What?

Marissa, I only came over here

because I saw you and I got happy.

- I kinda miss you. - Miss what?

You, all the stuff we did at Galvin,

Dr. Woods-Trap's class,

you saving my ass with the project about my mom.

It was Seren's idea to bring me in on that.

You do remember him, right?

Of course I remember.

I was the closest person to him, I was the one who...

I'm always thinking about Seren. He was my best friend.

Looks like you didn't struggle to find replacements.

- [BOYS LAUGH] - Yo, yeah, let's go.

No, that's not why I'm...

I'm sorry.

That part hasn't changed.

Marissa!

[LUIS] David!

Hey, we saw you, player.

Yeah, D, she was all over you.

What did she say?

- Yeah! - Tell us!

[BOYS LAUGH]

[YOUNG DAVID] You only gone for a weekend.

- What you have in here, a body? - Drugs.

I'm taking my PS3 so I can play with my little brother,

and my mom likes washing all my clothes while I'm at home.

- Why are you staying? - Ah, I got enough to do here.

And plus, I can make some extra money

putting our Shakespeare project together.

I can take it from here. You good.

Nah, I don't need you coming back

with one of them fake light-skin injuries

talking about you can't do the project.

Chill, I told you I got it.

[SPEAKING SPANISH]

[SPEAKS SPANISH]

¿Habla español?

Y'all be safe.

[SOFT MUSIC]

[DEAN HENDERSON, OVER P.A.] We're glad to have you all back

safe and sound from your long weekend.

Hope everyone is recharged and ready to excel.

We are still looking for those responsible

for the vandalism of the Hurston pool.

Anyone with information, come forward.

Being a true Hurston man is about integrity

- and accountability. - You good?

Yeah.

Are we good?

What are y'all whispering about?

We talking about how we're gonna get your slow ass

- to pass Mrs. Childs' class. - [FRED LAUGHS]

Man, we got black Shakespeare. I'm not worried.

You see him in class?

"O for a Muse of fire."

[BOYS LAUGH]

I don't know how his smart ass reads it so easily.

It's easy. I caught on to the rhythm.

LOOK: ba-bum-ba-bum-ba-bum-ba- bum-ba-bum.

What the hell was that?

[LUIS] It's iambic pentameter, right?

Yeah, it's like having a beat

you can rap the text to when it's written in verse.

You should have said rap from the beginning.

We gotta do some Shakespeare freestyle shit for our project.

What? Y'all heard the announcement.

We're on some Oceans Elevenshit!

- Yo, yo, yo, keep it down! - What you scared?

Ain't nobody gonna snitch, nigga.

They don't have to if you tell on yourself.

And my name is David.

[SCOFFS]

It was his plan, now this nigga...

I'm not your nigga. Don't call me that.

I was just playing around, nig...

[YOUNG DAVID] I was provoked.

He called me a nigga, and...

David, you will watch your language in here.

That's what I'm saying. He called me the N-word, sir.

Ronaldo, is this true?

We were just joking around.

No, I told him don't call me that

and he kept "N-word" this and "N-word" that.

I told him I am not his N-word, and he got mad and pushed me.

And then what happened?

Ronaldo, your father would be embarrassed

to know how his son is sullying

his family's reputation at Hurston.

There is absolutely no place for bigotry or racism here.

However, Mr. Young,

we have a zero tolerance policy for violence.

Your argument doesn't hold water here, David.

I hate it, but the N-word is common at this school.

I've even heard you and your friend, Luis, use it with each other.

- What makes this different? - It's different.

But aren't you two friends? Why are you acting this way?

Because he...

Because he started it.

You said he only pushed you.

That's starting it.

Are you okay?

- Have you seen the nurse? - No.

We need to make sure you don't have any head injuries.

I could see the nurse.

Yes, go now.

[RONDO] Yes, sir.

David Young, I pulled your records.

Your freshmen year at Hurston was clean, no trouble, straight A's.

But this year, it's different.

Fighting, a recent failed math test.

What? No. I just needed more time because...

Hurston men are not about excuses, David.

They are simply tools of the incompetent.

You will be suspended for the week

and put on academic probation until you get your act together.

That's not fair!

I hope you use your time at home to reflect on what you've done,

and come back with a new attitude.

That was crazy.

What the fuck is going on? Why are you packing?

- They kicked you out? - Nah.

So, what, suspension? How long?

- The rest of the week. - That's bullshit!

All 'cause of Rondo's drunk ass.

- Is your mom coming? - No, Luis, I'm taking the train.

Yo, my mom's a lawyer. I could call her...

I could've used your support when Rondo was calling me all types of niggas.

Oh, but I'm sure your father wouldn't like you helping me.

Yo, D, I'm sorry.

My name is David!

[HIP-HOP MUSIC]

[BOY] Come on, man, don't let him do you like that.

[GOLD TOOTH] Get off.

You think you know everything.

Hey, y'all should stream The Wire.

If the police is doing that much,

y'all definitely gonna get caught.

Dai, what you doing here?

Had to make sure you were staying out of trouble.

Ah, Prep School Man.

Nah, that's the Golden Child now, ain't it?

- Let me hold some. - What's up, y'all?

- Shit, doing what we do. - I see.

I thought you was on a sabbatical.

Nah, we ain't doing too much.

Shit slowed down since Raynan and Shinobi shut down shop.

- Facts. - More peaceful, I hope.

As peaceful as The Ville can get.

Hell you doing out here in the middle of the week, bruh?

Man, I had to fuck up a white boy for talking crazy.

Boy you was fighting at prep school?

You could have stayed here for all that.

- [BOYS LAUGH] - Come on, man.

I'm telling Ma you were at school

fighting over a science fair project.

Ah! Hey, yo, Ma!

JG, shut up!

Y'all ruining my YouTube video.

Shella, you ain't got no subscribers.

You gotta build 'em up, stupid.

[BOYS LAUGH]

All right.

[SOFT MUSIC]

Oh, hey. David, right?

David, what are you doing here?

I swear you taller every time I see you.

And handsome.

[YOUNG DAVID] What are all these boxes?

And we got chip clips now?

And who is that kid that just came out of my room?

- My room! - Shut up, JG!

That's Zion. I'm helping Mx. Elijah out with him

for a few months.

Just till we finally get the hell up out The Ville.

Wait, wait, you moving? Moving where?

I found a place not too far from here,

I was gonna tell you next time I saw you.

Hold up, I know you ain't come up in here

asking me fifty-eleven questions

and still ain't told me what you doing here.

I, um, I got suspended at school for fighting.

David, what you at them people's school fighting for?

This drunk white boy kept calling me a nigga

and pushed me, so I hit him.

But the school acting like I tried to kill him.

He drunk in the 10th grade?

They different out there.

Why am I just now hearing about this?

Ain't nobody call me or nothing.

I guess I gotta come up to that damn school

and get some straightening...

[INHALES DEEPLY]

[EXHALES SLOWLY]

What was the punishment?

I, um, got suspended for the rest of the week,

but I didn't want to call you and tell you over the phone,

because it wasn't my fault, Ma.

Thank you. Thank you for telling me.

Is that everything that happened?

Yes, yes, ma'am.

Okay, well, I trust you.

Please just try not to let your anger rule you, okay?

Wait, huh? That's it?

If you say it wasn't your fault, I believe you.

Thank you, I thought you...

Lord, I'm already running late to class.

There's food in the fridge.

We will talk more when I get home, okay?

Okay, but Ma...

I love you, David.

JG, make sure you have your homework done

by the time I get home tonight, so we can go over it.

Yes, Mama.

[SOFT MUSIC]

What you looking for, Dai?

I'm looking for this book that Sky gave me.

Have you seen where Ma put my clothes and stuff?

Ma gave a lot of our old stuff away.

Yeah? Like she sold it?

I see she's been real active, is everything okay?

She's good, Dai.

She's been going to meetings, all that.

She just gave our old stuff away

to kids who need them more than us,

like we rich or something.

Oh.

Well, at least she staying busy.

Hell, yeah, she stay on my ass about school.

She's even planning field trips with just me.

Talking about some, "Museum learning on the weekends too!"

That's good.

That's 'cause you like that shit.

I bet you and your rich Hurston friends

do way more fun stuff than that.

I thought some of them dudes was cool,

but now I don't know.

You the cool one, Dai. Fuck the other side.

Not as cool as my little brother.

I got something I need your help with.

Yeah, what's up?

What you need? What's wrong? Is it school?

Actually, I've been looking for something to do. Is it school work?

Chill, Dai.

You and Ma ever talked about becoming,

like, you know, you get it in the morning, or in class...

- Getting hard? - Nigga, you loud!

JG, you don't need to be thinking...

Trust me, in class, I don't think.

What?

In class, they make us go up to the board

so we can answer some questions.

And when I want to stand up...

- You standing up. - Exactly.

Look, you gotta learn to flip and tuck.

- Flip it where? - When it won't go down,

flip it up into your waistband,

and then untuck your shirt

until you get back to a safe place.

Dang!

See, here's why I need you around, Dai.

Ma told me just to calm myself down.

Like I can control it!

Well, you can't expect her to know everything.

Thanks. You the man, Dai.

I've been having that on my chest for a while.

- I'm gonna go... - I don't even wanna know, JG.

[BELLS RINGS]

[YOUNG DAVID] Dear Dr. Woods-Trap,

I went back to Galvin to see if you were there.

It's David, by the way. David Young.

I heard you retired.

And I hope you don't mind I got your email from the school.

I wanted your advice.

I am embarrassed to admit that I got into a fight,

I know, surprise, with this kid in my class.

And got suspended.

It wasn't my fault this time.

He called me a N-word after I told him to stop.

I know it's a word I use with my friends,

but there must be some difference in use, right?

Words and consent mean something, right?

I don't wanna launch a lawsuit or nothing,

but I just thought you may know a better way to handle it,

to get justice.

I hope you are doing great.

I miss you a lot.

Sincerely, D. Young.

[DR. WOODS-TRAP] Dear budding scholar

at Hurston Prep, David Young.

Thank you, I am well.

Your email said you thought

I would quote "understand" your suspension.

I do not.

What I do understand, David,

is that you still haven't figured out how to de-escalate.

Racism isn't your fault,

but it catching you off guard, were you not expecting it?

You signed up, almost begged, to go to a school

that is 80% white,

and you thought it wouldn't be, what, unfair?

This is what you wanted, and that's the trade-off

for trying, wanting, begging to navigate white institutions.

It's not always as bold and as blatant,

but racism is woven into the very fabric.

And the sooner you learn that, David, the better.

Because when push comes to shove,

one day, you're going to look around for your friends,

and they won't be there.

Or they will be there, smiling,

with knives between their teeth.

Thank you for writing, David.

You can do this.

Sincerely, Dr. Woods-Trap.

[UPBEAT MUSIC FROM HEADPHONES]

Hey.

Missed you at breakfast.

You really gonna pretend you can't hear me

with broken headphones?

D, David.

It's all good.

No, it's not.

Look, when I first got here,

I thought everyone was gonna make me feel outside,

because I'm not rich and I was raised in Hialeah.

But you, you was like fuck that.

You made me feel mad welcome.

You from Hialeah, not Mars.

I might as well be.

Rondo from Star Island.

Fred from rich-ass Lakes by the Bay.

All them pretending they down, but they not like us.

We came here to keep going, not to go back.

Real talk, my dad's an asshole sometimes, old-school Cuban.

Thinks he can say whatever to whoever.

And I told him how smart you was,

told my whole family about you.

I told them you my guy, like we brothers here.

Abuelita slapped my dad upside the head

when he tried to make a black joke again.

"Tu papa son negro, nene!"

Your grandfather black?

If you ask grandma, es una familia mulatta.

Come on, man, how Wade gonna stay mad at LeBron?

You know I'm LeBron.

[BOTH LAUGH]

You get that book while you was home?

Nah, I couldn't find it.

You gotta get Sky to buy you another one.

[SOFT MUSIC]

I can't.

He dead.

Word?

My bad, man. What happened?

Got shot.

It messed me up real bad.

He told me about Hurston.

I'm weird at losing friends.

Well, you can't get rid of me.

We good?

Not bad.

[LOUD KNOCK]

[FRED] It's the police, open up!

[LOUD KNOCK]

You want me to open it?

[SIGHS]

[LUIS] What y'all doing here?

Yo, Mayweather's back!

Yo, we gotta get this project done.

[DOOR SLAMS]

All I can say is thank you.

For what?

Thanks for not snitching on me.

Tequila makes me act wild different.

It was crazy.

You could have ratted on me, but you stuck by the bro code.

So thank you.

I mean, my mom would have put me in rehab again.

Again?

[YOUNG DAVID] Did y'all read the scene?

I kept the idea simple anyway.

There's a monologue where Caesar swam too far out

into the Tiber and almost drowned.

[PONCHO] What's the Tiber?

A river in Rome.

Caesar thought he could do everything by himself,

but when that happened, he had to call out to Cassius to save him.

Like showing how the guy

everybody thinks is so powerful is just human?

Exactly. I already cast the roles to make it easier for us.

Luis you can be Cassius, I'll be Brutus,

and Rondo, you can play Caesar.

[BOYS LAUGH]

All I gotta do is drown?

- Sounds like the easy part. - I'll play Caesar.

- You look like a little Caesar. - Look, none of this is hard.

I did something similar with a group in middle school, and we got an A.

That black girl from the field trip was in it, Marissa?

- Yeah. - I'd trade y'all in for her.

[RONDO] That's when you smashed her, David?

- Nah. - You don't got to lie.

Yo, that's the scene we should do.

Yo, yo, I'll play David! I'll play David! Ooh.

- Oh, baby. - Oh, Marissa.

Oh!

[RONDO] Oh, David,

don't pull my weave.

Yo, chill. You drunk again or something?

There he goes getting all emotional.

Hey, he don't want us messing with his girlfriend.

- I respect that. - She ain't my girlfriend.

And it wasn't just us. Seren was in it too.

Your fag friend was in the group too?

Yo, watch your mouth. I already fucked you up once.

- [BOYS LAUGH] - Yo, chill, chill.

He just got back.

Why you always defending him?

[LUIS]What?

Oh, my God!

It all makes sense now.

The whole freshman year David was weird as fuck,

and nobody even talked to him.

Now all of a sudden here comes, Luis.

- You the replacement? - [BOYS LAUGH]

Shut up, Rondo.

David missed his boyfriend, Seren,

and replaced him with you.

Who made the first move?

- [BOYS LAUGH] - A Hurston love story!

[RONDO] They always in that room giggling.

Y'all in there sharing gay secrets.

- Man, fuck you. - Fuck me?

You're the one that told me how David was wet dreaming.

- [BOYS LAUGH] - Luis the one that told me

to put an extra towel down like he always do!

Oh, my God, y'all seriously discussing wet dreams and shit?

Man, now see, that's the gayest.

I was just trying to help your ignorant ass.

I felt bad for you, always looking for a handout.

Yo, fuck you, Luis. You just like your racist-ass daddy!

At least I got one. Next time you need help, go ask Sky!

- Say his name again! - [BOYS] Oh!

Y'all about to fight or kiss?

It must fuck you up that an ignorant black kid like me

is better than you at everything.

Smarter than you, faster than you...

On land, but how about in the water?

[UPBEAT MUSIC]

[BOYS] Three, two, one, go!

[UPBEAT MUSIC]

Let's go, Luis! Let's go, baby!

[BOYS] Go, go, go!

[YOUNG DAVID] Ah! Ah!

[BOYS] Keep going!

[DAVID CRIES OUT IN PAIN]

[BOYS] Let's go, yeah!

That's what I'm talking about!

[ALL CHEER]

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

[MAN 1] You not scared no more, huh, Dai?

You a man now?

[MAN 2] That would be hard,

having to split yourself like that.

[MAN 3] You trying to go to Hurston, young brain?

[LUIS] You can't get rid of me.

[RONDO] Why you always defending him?

[DR. WOODS-TRAP] One day, you're going to look around

for your friends, and they won't be there.

[DEAN HENDERSON] Hurston men are not about excuses, David.

[DR. P] It's always something with you.

[DR. WOODS-TRAP] You can do this.

[SKY] Man of war, man of war, man of war.

Playtime's up.

Stop crying. Grow up, JG.

[JG] You got to watch where you're going, sir.

Excuse me. You play too fucking much, J.

- [LAUGHS] - [SKY] You're the man.

[YOUNG DAVID] I thought some of them dudes was cool,

- but now I don't know. - [YOUNG JG] You the cool one.

[LUIS] I was just trying to help yo' ignorant ass.

[RONDO] There he goes getting all emotional.

[LUIS] Always looking for a handout.

[JG] I'm going to The Ville. Stop, stop!

[COUGHING]

[PANTING]

[PHONE RINGS]

Ma.

[GLORIA] David, your brother.

You need to get to the hospital now.
