Original subtitles

- David, ready? - I don't have to get ready.

Call me Joe, please.

They came down from their offices

for the homestead village redevelopment.

What do you want?

Selling out the place you grew up?

Ah! Hey, girl.

She's fine as fuck.

We went to middle school together.

David looked like he didn't struggle to find a replacement.

I'm sorry.

I told you I had a big meeting prepared for you.

Yeah, prepared.

- Are you staying? - Hi, ma.

An officer was shot out there tonight.

[GUNSHOT]

And the ville think it can hurt, what we are doing?

- No. - Go back!

I want to be mayor.

I want to do that for you.

[JOE PADILLA] Buenas noches, David.

Ma.

[GLORIA] You need to get to the hospital now.

[DAVID] It's like he always just skated.

Someone...

I don't remember who exactly,

they called him the mayor,

like way back when...

He was like six or something.

He had this thing about him,

Ms. Elijah called it charisma.

Something some folks are just born with, they say.

People at the ville just loved them some JG.

But is it really something you're born with?

Was it just a free pass, a luxury?

'Cause someone is always watching your back,

got you covered.

And when the unexpected happens,

when it gets thick all of a sudden,

you soft.

And mayor shit is not useful.

It's gonna get you stuck.

Young family?

We're gonna need to discuss some options.

There are some complications.

[OPENING THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

What kind of complications?

The gunshot wounded more than Jonathan's abdomen.

The bullet significantly lacerated his liver.

Oh my god!

Sometimes these things don't show up on the scans

but once we got in there,

we discovered it and we were able to patch it up.

Is JG gonna be okay?

Jonathan...

JG made it through surgery and he's in stable condition.

He's stable, see Trish. He's gonna be okay.

When can we see him?

He's still under anesthesia

and we'd like to keep him sedated.

We can safely do that by administering

a combination of medicine that will induce a coma.

That way, a machine can breathe for him,

allowing him to rest more deeply and

enable him to fully recover from his wounds.

- You want to induce a coma? - For what?

Is this a normal procedure after surgery?

In JG's case, yes.

He needs more rest.

If this is gonna make him better, then do it.

Excuse me. Why do you get to say?

How long do you have to keep him under?

We'll closely monitor him

and make assessments as he improves.

[DR. FORNAY] If all goes well, 48 hours.

[WOMAN] If it were your child...

Induce.

Keeping him sedated should result in a better prognosis.

Should? What if he doesn't wake up?

People tend to worry about that

but that is extremely rare.

I need to think about it.

If we're going to induce him,

it needs to happen soon.

I can give you a few minutes to discuss

and then I'm gonna need a definitive answer.

Mm.

Trish...

It's real hard.

I know, we all want to be with JG, but right now,

- we gotta make a choice. - Glo.

They didn't even know the bullet cut up his liver.

How do we know they won't mess up again?

I understand you're scared.

I am JG's proxy, okay?

The common law married.

Well, start acting like it, then.

Hey.

Hey.

You're right. It's your choice.

We're family, but you're JG's.

We counting on you

and the doctor needs a decision.

If you let her keep him under,

you can change your mind.

But, if you wake him,

you can't go back.

You can't ever do it over.

You gotta live with whatever happens.

Where is daddy?

Hey, baby girl.

Your daddy...

He came through like a champ.

He's just sleeping like you've been,

and he's gonna sleep a little longer.

How much longer?

The doctor says two days.

Why don't I, um...

Take tren to the cafeteria to get something to eat?

[TELEPHONE RINGING]

Good idea.

Honey, you haven't eaten a thing.

Why don't you go with your uncle David?

Wait, hold up.

[INCOHERENT ANNOUNCEMENT ON PA]

- How's school? - Boring.

Yeah. I feel you.

When I was in sixth grade,

I wanted to do anything but sixth grade.

I'm in eighth grade.

Oh.

How's that going?

Look, my dad just got shot.

You don't have to make small talk.

Yes ma'am.

I mean, you never want to talk.

I don't mind. Not into it, either.

[DAVID] I thought you were hungry.

- I'm a vegan. - Oh.

Why didn't you say something?

[SIGHS]

[CHUCKLES]

Your dad used to love those.

He used to?

Why would you say that to me?

That's not what I meant?

I meant like when he was a kid...

That's not what you said.

I wanna go.

Okay, sure.

You want a salad for later?

[COUGHS]

[COUGHS]

[PANTING]

How has it been with your brother in the hospital?

I imagine it's difficult seeing him like that.

Have you actually been to see him?

Nice!

David?

I sometimes do this thing where...

I see people.

People?

A long time ago...

After he got shot.

After who got shot?

Sky.

His name was Sky.

What happened to Sky?

He died.

I'm sorry.

Did you see Sky after he died?

Did Sky speak with you?

Is Sky speaking to you now?

No.

But you're seeing someone?

Yes.

Can you tell me who it is?

People die...

When I think they're gonna die,

I see 'em.

Remember 'em.

Mm. I see.

Are you worried

that your brother is going to die like Sky did?

Thinkin' about it.

I understand.

But he's there for a reason.

But what reason?

With some people it's helpful

in processing stress, emotions,

particularly during a trying time.

This is not helping me.

It's distracting me.

Talking about it is the first good step.

We're talking.

I need you to tell me what to do.

Well, it doesn't quite work like that.

Like what?

It's your job, right? To make things better?

Yes.

And that's what we're doing.

Therapy isn't a straight line, David.

[ANGRILY] Maybe you know what the fuck you was doing?

David?

Tell her what you're afraid of.

I gotta get to work.

We still have 20 minutes. Are you sure?

While certain districts of Miami

have seen that investment continue ever since,

south beach, brickell, little Havana,

wynwood, little Haiti.

Others have been left far far behind

which brings us to County District 14.

Homestead village.

A prime piece of land

just east of the urban development line,

just waiting for the right opportunity,

the right company, the right plan.

And with Padilla Alvarez associates,

immaculate re-development record across the state,

including...

The new ground-breaking, 2.5 million square-foot

west coast shopping Plaza in Clearwater.

PA Associates has done it before.

And they can do it again right here

in Miami's District 14.

An unprecedented opportunity

for a long forgotten and neglected area.

An opportunity that I would be honored to be a part of.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Young.

An ambitious and far-reaching plan and then some.

Commission will now hear opposing points of view.

[PROTESTERS CHANTING]

[CAMERAS CLICKING]

[OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

My name is Marissa Eugene.

I stand before you today

to spell out the irreparable damage

this proposed mall will do

to Miami's water wildlife and wetlands.

I don't doubt your loyalty to Miami, Miss Eugene, but...

Why the python?

The Burmese python is an invasive species

to Florida's everglades,

set free by irresponsible pet owners

having now decimated our everglade mammal populations

by over 90%?

Now, Mr. Young and his group are advocating

another Burmese python.

And this time,

it threatens all that we all know and love.

It's responsibly conceived development.

I re-iterate...

It's not close enough to the urban development line to have

any of these alleged impacts.

- [PROTESTERS YELLING] - Congressioners, it's clear.

PA Associates is disinterested and ill-equipped to handle

the highly delicate environmental issues

facing this area.

Please, don't be irresponsible.

Vote no on this proposal.

[PROTESTERS] Vote no on the mall. Protect the sea wall.

That's enough. This is not a free-for-all.

Commissioner Roberts, if we...

Mr. Young, do you have the results from your survey

to share with the convention?

Survey is still pending, but...

How are you even standing here if you haven't done a survey?

We're still in the process of hiring.

If I could...

Talk out of your ass for another 15 minutes?

[MAN] Mr. Young,

were you aware of the devastating

environmental impacts this mall can have?

We were just waiting for

an environmental representative to attend.

- Miss Eugene, I would like... - I accept.

[PROTESTER] You got stabbed back, right?

Excellent.

No, wait.

The commission will suspend any further consideration

until the results are returned.

- Commissioner Roberts. - Thank you.

Next up, Ordinance 3B.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Can I help you?

[CHUCKLES] Here you are. How was city home?

- As great as finding you in my... - [RINGTONE]

Just save it for my uncle.

He would like a word.

You told me you'll get this project approved

in six months, maybe less.

I told you there'd be push-backs.

Not from environmentalists.

They think we're building a supermall

next to a large protected wetland in the country.

I'd be more concerned if they didn't show.

They are part of this.

I just didn't expect them so soon.

And you think springing our new plan on them

will make them all just disappear?

I got a in with the woman who's spearheading this.

I'm already handling it.

I hope so.

Just pay her off.

See how much she cares about a swamp

with a big-ass check under her nose.

I asked you to hold the iPad, elan.

David.

[SNAPS FINGERS] David.

What?

Where the hell are you?

Right here.

Not from what I'm looking at.

You in this or not?

If you don't trust me, Mr. Padilla,

then just fire me now.

Elan,

you're going to be David's new assistant.

You don't leave his side until this project is approved.

- Whoa! - Wait, what?

That's not part of my job.

Hey, I don't need an assistant.

Clearly you do.

This wasn't a request.

[LINE DISCONNECTS]

Stay out of my office when I'm not around.

[CLEARS THROAT]

This the place everyone's being a big deal about?

Look, I got a lot of work to do, so...

The fuck you go from this to

Hurston and Ivy tower?

Ivy league.

[CHUCKLES] That's pretty fuckin' impressive.

Hmm. What was it like, growing up like that?

You know, dealers and gangbangers,

niggas out there trying to shoot your ass.

Hey, my bad.

They do be out shooting though.

Heard some dumbass cop went out and

got shot up there just last week.

So...

[DAVID] Hey.

[WOMAN] Hey, yourself.

Where are you?

I just wanted to...

To say goodnight.

What's wrong?

You there?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm good.

I saw a therapist today.

She gave me something to help me sleep, so...

I think it's working.

Oh. That's great, David.

Please, get some rest.

- Talk tomorrow? - Yeah.

I'll make it up to you.

Good night.

[MACHINE BEEPING]

[VENTILATOR HISSING]

My uncle wants me to drive you around.

Where? Crazy?

[CHUCKLES] Yo, man...

I'm humbly and dutifully at your service.

I'm fine with the orange line. Thanks.

If you knew anything about this city,

you know I get to work faster that way.

How about we just do what my uncle wants

and you can be grateful that we live in a world

where I drive you, and not the other way around.

[CHUCKLES] Of course.

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

We just need to stop of at my mom's place first.

[HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING]

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

I need you to tally up all the vacant

and occupied units in the ville

and report back to me.

How am I supposed to do that?

Go door-to-door house.

Oh you know...[CLEARS THROAT]

Don't skip over the boarded up ones.

In most cases they're broken

because of break-ins and bullets.

Watch yourself. You never know who's squatting inside.

[HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING]

This isn't my job description, right?

I'm not doing this shit.

No one's got a gun in your head.

Yet.

[CAR STARTING]

Ready.

[DR. FORNAY] He's been doing great

since we took the ventilator out.

No need to worry.

Hmm. Welcome back sleepyhead.

Where am I?

Baby, I'm here.

You're in the hospital.

[DR. FORNAY] Your surgery was a success.

And you sir, are making an encouraging recovery.

We've had you sedated for the last five days.

Last thing I...

- Oh my gosh! - Yeah.

Sure did, but they got the bullet out

and you're gonna be fine

like it never happened.

[DR. FORNAY] She's right.

Your wound is healing nicely.

I'll keep a morphine drip on you to keep you comfortable.

I'll check back in a couple of hours.

Thank you doctor.

I'm glad it's you, ma.

Wouldn't want my girl to see me scared.

There's nothing to be scared of.

And Trish has been camped out everyday.

She loves you, baby.

We all do.

How's Tren?

She's strong like her daddy.

She can't wait to see you

and Dave is on his way.

You need anything? You thirsty?

Yeah.

They said ice chips only, to start.

Go slow.

Mama, what happened?

Anybody else get hurt?

No, baby.

You're the only one.

Because of you,

everybody at the ville is safe.

Policemen been coming back.

Officer Morrison, so many,

I can't keep track of their names

but they've been paying their respects,

wishing you a speedy recovery.

And the boy, he's in custody.

They got him.

So, no need to worry about nothin'.

[SIGHS]

What's taking so long?

It's on, Tren.

[SIGHS]

Anyone sitting right here?

[TELEPHONE RINGING]

You want it?

It's boring, but it's something.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Hmm.

Alien, buy ins and corns.

[SCOFFS]

[CHUCKLES] Crazy thing is

I got somebody who can actually use this.

Sorry, my mind is distracted.

Oh, I get it.

Since my friend's been here, I've been barely function.

I hope your friend is okay.

Me too.

He's been fighting for his life.

Oh yes. I feel your pain.

My husband, he's here too.

He's had a close call.

Oh.

- How's he doing? - Oh, he's good.

Now it's me that's falling apart.

[BOTH LAUGH]

I might have just the thing.

Okay, so I offer beauty treatment appointments

- for relaxation. - Oh okay.

Girl, you gotta take your yourself time, you know.

- [CHUCKLES] - All right, there's a sample right here

and my website's on the back.

Oh, thank you.

You're so kind.

I'll pray for your friend, girl.

Thank you. [CHUCKLES]

He could use it, girl.

Woo! He's a wannabe gangster,

went and got himself all shot up.

Oh, I'm sorry.

All brawn and no brain

if you hear what I mean.

Well, my husband, he's more of a...

Stand up, follow rules type guy.

You know he was out helping a hand

and then there was this accident

Jonathan Young is able to have visitors now.

Wh...

We can see daddy now?

Come on. Come on. Come on.

David?

You don't recognize me?

Boy! It's shella.

I know. [CHUCKLES]

Just surprised me that's all, I mean...

What're you doing here?

I'm here to see JG, same as you.

You've seen him already?

No. I figured I have to come back later.

Looks like there's a lot of family here now.

It's good to see you, Dai.

We gotta catch up at JG's welcome home party.

- Did my mom call you? - She did.

I'm the one that called 911 after JG got shot.

What? Wait, you still live...

Live at the ville?

[SCOFFS] Yeah.

It's not bougie like downtown,

but I do I...

Oh. I didn't know. I mean,

if you were there with JG.

I'm sorry, I've just got a lot going on.

Mm hmm. Don't worry about it.

Go, see your brother.

He needs you.

Hey baby. [CHUCKLES]

I missed you.

I'm so happy you're finally awake.

I know, I'm the wife of a police officer...

Okay, baby.

We're together.

[SIGHS]

Baby girl.

It's okay. He's all healed up now.

Good as new.

See.

- [LAUGHS] - Ma, stop.

I got to check out your neck.

Your neck still working?

Over here, let me see. [JG CHUCKLES]

Careful ma.

You're gonna pull the IV right out of 'em.

He's right, Ms. Glo.

Hey, Dai.

You made it.

Hey.

When are they letting you out of here?

Three days and we're gonna celebrate.

The kids got a whole thing for him.

Probably but JG comes straight home.

Oh just a quick little stop at our place on the way.

They've been rehearsing,

they're so excited.

No.

You can't have all that.

It'll be too much.

Hey Tren.

Come over here and give your daddy some love.

[SIGHS]

Group hug.

[CHUCKLES]

Dai, if you don't come on over and get in on this...

It's recording?

- Yeah. - Good.

JG...

Are...

You...

Ready?

[JG LAUGHS]

This is for you!

Thanks Ma. I'm right here.

Welcome home, j.

- [GASPS] - [TRENISE CHUCKLES]

Homecoming king.

[R&B MUSIC PLAYING]

David! You're just in time!

[LAUGHS] Start over.

Tren... where are you going?

[R&B MUSIC CONTINUES PLAYING]

[R&B MUSIC CONTINUES PLAYING]

[RUDE NEIGHBOR] Shut the hell up, over there.

We're welcoming my brother home.

He just got out of the hospital.

I don't care what you're celebrating.

Quit that racket.

Sorry. We'll keep it down.

There you go, Dai.

Trying to tap down all the fun.

No worries.

It's good to be home. [CHUCKLES]

- Y'all Gucci. - [GLORIA] Come on.

Learning the phrases, what doctor say...

To take it easy.

It is easy.

I'll show you miss Trish.

You just start with the turn like this.

- [GROANS] - [GASPS] JG are you okay?

Deal with this faggot shit.

Hold on. Hold on now, damn it.

At my house?

Ma, she didn't mean it. Trish, I'm fine.

These are good kids.

They are kids

and they act up but they're good.

And they got people.

I make sure they know they got people.

They deserve respect.

You got anything you want to say?

I'm...

I'm sorry.

I think it's time for us to head home.

Trish, why don't you um...

Why don't you go on ahead?

I'm gonna stay for a while.

I wanna stay too.

Come on Trish.

We'll take JG and Trenise home

as soon as they've had their cake.

Yes ma'am. That's a promise.

Okay.

We need groceries, so I...

[KISSES]

Come on. Let's get you in the house.

Tren, come here.

Tell your uncle dai what you got in that last algebra test.

[DOOR CLOSES]

Don't worry. She'll come around.

I don't know.

Like when she gets two functional parents again.

[CHUCKLES]

And Trisha will be idle.

Yeah. Yeah, no.

I was a hurt man.

Don't... don't judge her so hard, you know. She, uh...

She just gets scared sometimes.

And I know she's had it rough.

All that time in the hospital

and me just...

How did she seem

when I was under?

I don't really know.

Oh, come on, man.

You can be honest.

I'm just trying to...

Understand what she's been through.

Mom was with her everyday.

Yeah. I can't ask mom.

But I can ask you.

I wasn't there a whole lot.

When I saw you like that,

hooked up to that machine...

I just...

You knew I'd fall through, right?

- JG... - Uh, you gonna finish that?

Huh?

The cake, man.

Oh. No.

- You can have it. - Hell yeah.

[CHUCKLES] You the man, Dai.

[SIGHS] Here we go.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Hey dai.

You're back.

Nice to see you too.

Didn't believe me at the hospital?

I'm not...

The other day, I didn't.

Put that whole sentence together.

[CHUCKLES] It's all right, words are tough.

[CAR APPROACHES]

[MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO]

- [MUSIC STOPS] - [DOOR OPENS]

Are you kidding me right now?

I did exactly what you asked.

Got up close and personal with the folks at the ville,

got a much clearer picture of you, Dai.

Your old babysitter, she um...

Or is it he...

Really talked my ear off,

would not let me leave.

She could probably use some company, Dai.

Kept calling me shino-something.

But...

She does know where your mama really lives,

among other things.

Hope the party was fun.

[ELAN CHUCKLES]

After you.

Jonathan Greg.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

It's really you.

You can't get rid of me that easy.

Shella!

Lord knows where we would be without you.

Aww! Here.

Sorry I missed y'all's big show.

Elijah too. You know they won't come.

Give Elijah my best, would you?

Ready whenever you are.

Ma you know we're smart.

Let her play.

[DOOR CLOSES]

I don't know what they told you about that night, but

I, uh...

I still have nightmares.

My hands were so bloody, I could have sworn...

Then who will come by

and drive you crazy?

Hmm?

You remember anything

at the McCammon Hall?

Honestly...

From that moment till the time I woke up,

all I really remember is you.

Um, I should...

You need to get some rest.

I thought you uh...

You just got here.

[DAVID] Thank you for seeing me.

Of course. I'm always happy to see you, David.

Well, this won't take long.

That's fine. Whatever you'd like.

- I want to apologize. - For?

Last session.

Anything in particular?

For my behavior.

There's no need to apologize.

I was doubting your job skills

- and I was wrong. - Not wrong at all.

It's perfectly acceptable for you to speak

whatever is on your mind in here.

I feel bad about it and...

I really just wanted to let you know that

I'm feeling much, much better, so...

So, thank you.

I'm really glad to hear that.

I mean, across the board, I mean...

My brother's gonna be fine

thing with my girlfriend is going great, and

I have my job situation right where I need it, so...

I really just wanted to say, thank you.

So you said, and you are most welcome.

[SIGHS] Okay, well...

That's about it, um...

You can charge me for a full session, no problem.

Are you still seeing images of your brother?

No. That's all gone.

David, if I could be candid?

Sure.

I think we should really continue our work here.

Why? I'm not seeing him.

You saw visions

because you killed him off in your head.

When you didn't know whether he was gonna live or die

it was easier for you to just kill him off,

save yourself the pain.

What?

That's wild. I would never want that.

Besides, it doesn't matter. He's going to be fine.

This wasn't the first time, was it?

This won't be the last time.

Huh?

The visions.

They're a symptom of trauma

that hasn't been worked through.

Thanks.

Distancing yourself from people,

it's a survival technique from when you were young.

Not uncommon with trauma survivors.

[LIGHTER CLICKS]

But it's out loaded now.

[DR. BREE] You needed it when you were young

to cope with the grief,

but the behavior, it's still there.

You don't need it anymore.

All it's doing now

is deadening yourself

to anyone who's important to you.

David, you all right?

[DAVID] I'm good.

I really am.

Thanks.
