How has it been with your brother in the hospital?

Tell her what you're afraid of. I gotta get to work.

David, you know Mr. Padilla.

Good to see you, David.

Homestead Village, it was poor then,

and it's screaming for redevelopment.

You have my attention.

With Padilla-Alvarez Associate's

immaculate redevelopment record across the state,

they can do it again right here in Miami-Dade's District 14.

My name is Marissa Eugene,

I stand before you today to spell out

the irreparable damage this proposed model will do.

Breaking news.

We might as well be building a cancer factory.

Given the investigative report, I have halted all development

in the area known as Homestead Village,

and if necessary, relocate all residents immediately.

Shella!

- Lord knows where we would be without you.

From that moment 'til the time I woke up

all I really remember is you.

Son, the union has put together a package

for you and your family.

Thank you for this money, I'm gonna be donating it

to the defense fund for Shalimar Rose.

He shot a cop, JG!

We got bills, Trenise has college in a few years!

Taking the Ville away

is not going to make life better for them or you.

Hey, Trenise, where you goin'?

Anywhere but home.

You think you can miss curfew?

Don't think you going nowhere with that phone.

You'll see this in a week, if you lucky.

- Ma.

Your mother has thrown herself

into a second wave of parenting

harder than any drug she's ever done.

Not uncommon for an addict to continue chasing a fix.

Is this a pattern for you?

Hey, what?

Bosses, commissioners, your girlfriend?

Is it possible that you're addicted to this chaos?

That kid, have you forgiven him?

Can you forgive him?

You comin', Dai?

Some things you gotta do on your own, J.

I'm still fuckin' locked up in here, right? Stop, stop!

Do you think Grandma's gonna move?

I guess Yelle and Ashok have to go, too, huh?

Could I visit?

Dad?

Dad?

Hmm?

You tired.

Thanks for pointin' that out, Tren.

Does it still hurt from where you got shot?

What? No, look, I don't...

Why do you keep going to the Ville if you got shot there?

Trenise... Is that why you and Trisha keep fighting?

What? Hey, don't call your mom...

You and Mom gonna get a divorce?

Trenise, enough!

Okay, just...

I didn't mean it.

Hey, look at me.

I'm tired, you're right.

I'm sorry.

Can you tell me what you are feeling right now?

I'm feelin' like I'm tired as fuck

of you tellin' me what I came here for!

I don't like to act like that,

you don't want me to act like that either.

That kid, do you ever talk to that part of you?

I'm so, so sorry.

Suffocating that side of you, David,

that's a full time job.

I love this lady, and she smells good.

He's out of control.

Don't fuck this up.

It's too big for me.

You lied to me. He's gonna blow everything up.

You in timeout now, nigga.

Always this train, I hate it. Grown and don't drive.

I should have a car. A Maserati.

Ooh, shit, these come in red?

I'm finna hit the dealership right quick.

Come on, man, a test drive?

Wonder, what my credit score needs to be.

Little boujee ass, credit score better be good as fuck.

Belford!

You sore from ridin' that desk yet?

Not as bad as you're about to be, McKinna.

Heard you caught a grand jury.

Nah, it'll be quick. That's what they all say, man.

Have a good weekend?

Played some tennis. Nice, nice.

Debbie, how you?

Morning, Kel, how are the kids?

Oh, shit, he's back. Welcome to the cellblock.

McKinna, why the fuck are you always in such a good mood?

I know, right?

Nuh-huh.

You're on surveillance, Jonathan.

You can finish those forms once you're done with the tapes.

Come on, Chief.

What's wrong with you?

Move!

I got shot, Dai.

I can see the fear in your eyes, JG.

Where's you're head, JG?

Fuck! Somebody!

Oh, hey.

Hey, man, how are you?

Your hair different?

It's not penned back.

That a problem?

Nah, just don't think I ever noticed.

Okay, that hurt.

Damn. I already forgot how sensitive you are.

I see, you miss it?

Yeah, I do.

You're good? As can be.

Shit, I'm just glad somebody can see me.

Good news?

Oh, uh... Oh, again, huh?

They just heard from the judge.

They're gonna try your boy as an adult.

He's 16. I know.

The kid's 16, he's already being held with adults?

- Yeah, but look... - No, they try him as one,

there's no chance he gets out for the rest of his life.

Morrison, look at me and tell me you think that's right.

I-I don't.

But you know what, J?

- I think you're wrong, too. - What?

You took our money,

money we could've put toward our kids,

our savings, whatever, and instead we gave it to you

so you could take care of yours.

And then you turn around and hand it over to that...

Seeing I'm the one that got shot,

figured I could do what I wanted with the money.

- You took what was ours... - Took?

Oh, now I'm stealing?

Look, man, there's nothing, um,

it's a wrap.

The kid's done, man.

You need OJ money to get him off now,

and there's no way you're getting a penny more

off any of us.

So maybe we can move on?

Phone, call Shella.

Please.

Come on.

This is Shella, you know what to do on the beeeeep.

Hang up.

You, um...

Aw, her royal highness having a bad day?

What an asshole.

Right.

Jon, where you going?

Traitor Express, end of the hallway.

Don't come back.

Hey, you, how are you?

Comin' in after lunch, you're never late.

Kobe!

- Nice shot. - I still got it.

- You ever play? - Not a day.

Denise, how long've you worked here?

'Bout as long as you.

And not one time have we sat down

and talked about what you would like to do with your career.

Well, y-you've been busy, and...

Not too busy for this.

Let's get lunch on the books,

see how I can help you start making moves.

You're in the middle of the biggest project

you've ever taken on.

- Why don't I schedule it for... - Tomorrow.

David, that's crazy.

You have a full day, you have...

I'm not taking no, all right?

We're on for lunch.

- Oh, okay. - Can't wait.

Don't you have work to do?

Actually, don't forget.

Damn!

I ain't have time for all that.

Don't have time to mentor a sister?

Besides, if we go up higher

we need a smart executive right with us so we...

No!

So you're a liar.

What? That's one.

What?

You've got one time to call me a liar.

- Beg your pardon! - Yo!

How may I help you? Sir?

You promised me a redevelopment in six months.

And now we are four months in and set to lose it all.

And what's killing me is I can't figure out

if this is intentional sabotage,

or if you are just stupid.

Stay calm.

Excuse me?

The fuck you just say to me?

No, no, no, no, I wasn't talkin'...

Corey Roberts just announced

that he will evacuate residents of The Ville next week

due to the findings of the toxicity report,

and I'm supposed to be calm?

I can't put condos on a contaminated site!

Are you happy now, David?

Not only will we not get to redevelop,

but all the people you grew up with

will be dumped on the street without warning, like garbage.

I said calm the fuck down.

I'm on it. I'm gonna fix it.

I've heard that shit before.

Hear it again.

I have a plan.

Now, I promised you a six-month redevelopment deal,

and I'm gonna get that shit done in four.

- What? - You know what? It'll be solved next week.

- What are you doing? - Actually it'll be solved by

- Promising things?

Come in, solve problems, it's what I do.

Nigga, this is creating problems!

You say something?

I need you to give me a ride.

What the fuck?

I'm right here, jeez. Damnit.

- JG. - I can't get some peace.

- Where you been? - I just came from work, damn.

Is Trenise with you?

She, she got soccer, don't it?

The coach called, she didn't show up for practice.

So she was callin' to make sure everything is all right.

JG, we don't know where she is.

Guess you like this place now?

Yo, that's a nice ass car.

You being sarcastic?

Me? I been liked it, loved it, mad plush.

I bet that front seat reclines like a full-ass bed.

If I had a car like that, I would try to keep it nice.

What?

I got something on my face?

Nah, I just never...

You never talk this much.

Pressure keeps me quiet.

- And look. - Oh, God.

It's not that I don't like you,

you just remind me of my little brother.

Things always came easy for him in life,

like they do for you.

You know where that got him? Shot up.

Married to somebody he barely like.

Yeah, that's what's waiting for you.

I, um, I mean, I hope not. You really, you think I...

Now your uncle, now that's who you really need...

Nigga, hush!

For real, you okay?

What's going on with you today?

I just have low blood sugar.

You think we could grab some napkins?

Yeah, I got you.

- Hey, Ma. - Trenise with you?

No. Why?

She missing, nobody can find her.

She not in school?

JG dropped her off and now they can't find her.

I'm running home to see if she... she say anything to you?

I'ma be right there, I'ma come help you find her.

How you gonna get there, on foot?

Did you? Oh, God.

If she decided to walk from school

then something must've happened,

'cause, Trish, we called everywhere.

No, she could still be at Gloria's.

She'll be home to check in a few.

I-I-I'm sure she's there.

- Fuck! - JG.

- No, she ain't gonna be there. - How do you know that?

'Cause I know when something's off.

I know when something's wrong, I...

Why the hell did I take her phone?

Why'd I take her phone?

At 13, every kid starts to act out, so she's probably...

You don't know. You don't know!

Look, I, I know you're upset

but Gloria will call us right back, all right?

Come, come and sit down, please.

And if she's not at Gloria's, we'll, um,

we'll-we'll call the station.

We'll call the station, that's what we'll do.

Trisha, I don't think they'd help us.

What?

What?

Nobody at the station is talking to me.

I don't think they'd help us, I...

They'd take a full 24

Hello?

How can they still be runnin 'round here?

- E-E-Elijah, slow down. - Slow down?

I keep telling you, I keep calling you

and you said you'd come over here.

No, no, this the first time you called today.

Breaking windows, I almost cut a toe

on an open piece of glass.

Elijah my daughter is missing right now,

I don't have time for whatever this is, okay?

I-I'm sorry, okay, you gotta...

Wait, Trenise? You talkin' bout Tren?

I seen her, tryna take that tone with me.

- What, when, where? - What?

Where I am I always?

The Ville.

At least driving I could cover more ground

trying to track down Trenise.

- She's 13, not a cheetah.

David?

Were you gonna say hello?

Hey, Nic, how are you?

God, skin so soft.

- Okay, sorry. - How are you, David?

Oh, you know, not great, but okay.

Not great?

I just found out that my niece, she may be missing.

It's only been a few hours

but I'm heading up to look for my license,

I gotta rent a car so I can help.

- I should probably get going. - I'm so sorry. Um...

Do you want me to come upstairs with you

and help you look for your license?

Tren?

Tren?

You here, honey?

Tren?

Tren in here with you?

No.

What?

Kids on TV talk about how annoying it is,

having parents barge in.

- Oh, sorry... - No, it's okay.

I like having a parent to be annoyed with.

When's the last time you saw Trenise?

Uh, a few days ago, why?

We haven't been able to find her.

Wait, like you don't know where she is, or...

Can I see your cell phone?

I'll call her, I bet she sees your phone number,

she'll pick up.

Isn't she on punishment?

I thought they took away her phone.

She told me you gave it to her dad or something.

Oh, my God.

Miss Glo, what's going on? Is she okay?

I'm really sorry I don't know where she is, can I help?

- I'm really... - Hey, you're okay, just sit tight

and if she comes here, call me, all right,

and if you know some of her friends, call 'em.

I'm on it.

Love you. Don't you worry,

let me go talk to Yelle.

- Jonathan?

Elijah just called, they saw Trenise at The Ville.

I'm on my way.

Glo?

You heard anything?

Elijah saw Tren at The Ville, JG's on his way there.

Wait, wait, The Ville, what is she...

I don't know, I don't even know,

she's never even been there, I don't think, I gotta go.

- Gloria, hold on, hold on. - I gotta get there.

Hold on, wait, wait, you just said JG was headed that way.

I'm meeting him there.

Okay, but don't you think you should stay here

and let him go there?

You wanna take your hand off me?

I'm tryna get you to slow down.

- Who say I need slow? - I do, me.

'Cause this is what you do, no, you run yourself ragged

and then collapse and then I got to pick up the pieces.

Now let's stop, stop for a second, stop.

Let's think about where we can do the most good,

and let JG handle himself.

You trying to tell me how to be a mother to my children?

I'm not.

I'm trying to help, I'm trying to be your partner.

You don't get to control how I show up for my family.

Control, huh?

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

Nine years, but that's on me though, that's on me.

- Okay. - That's on me.

Nine years I woulda thought

I woulda been a part of this family.

- Listen, this ain't... okay. - I'm listening!

Explain it to me, please.

Please, 'cause I'm listening, what I gotta do?

What I gotta do to be in the number?

How long is it gonna take for you to think of me

as part of this family that you got to show up for?

This ain't the time for this discussion.

Please move so I can go and help my son.

JG got the Ville.

What you gonna do besides get upset?

The last time I know'd him to be there, he got shot.

And what could you have done to prevent that, Glo Young?

Robin, I asked you nice.

And I'm begging you, I'm begging you,

please, please don't go, please.

All right, all right, all right fine.

But when you come back, when it fall like I say,

I'ma need you to explain to me

how we keep this thing together.

'Cause then I'ma be tired, too.

Do you have any idea where your niece might have gone?

I don't.

But I feel like we're kind of the same in a lot of ways.

How do you mean?

Like when I was, I've always had this thing

where I imagine different scenarios with people.

Different conversations, different moments.

Kind of like fantasies?

Yeah, and sometimes I can see that she's with me,

and sometime she's in one of them,

somewhere else in her imagination.

I'm rambling, sorry.

David, you aren't rambling,

this is just a real conversation.

You're showing me who you really are, for once.

I gotta go to the bathroom, I'll be right back.

Well, shit.

Yes!

You found it, huh?

Thank you.

For what?

Being present.

Yo, J, you found her?

I'm on my way to The Ville.

Mx. Elijah says she's there, Ma's coming too.

On my way.

It's him.

It's that cop, bro.

Punk ass.

Why he here?

Trenise!

Boy, stop all that yellin'?

- Where is Trenise? Trenise! - What?

Why would that child be here?

On the phone, you told me that she...

Oh, my God, oh, my God.

Elijah... What?

You told me that she was, I raced over here thinking...

Why would I say Trenise was here when she ain't?

I don't know, Elijah, but you did.

I gotta find my child.

- What happened, what happened to her? - She missing!

Oh, my lord.

JG! Oh, lord!

Jonathan Greg, Jonathan Greg, wait!

What you do?

Didn't do nothing, she ain't come home from practice.

You want me to come with you?

No!

Well, hold up, let me get my other shoe.

Elijah, take your forgetful ass back inside.

You already cost me time, damn!

Who's doing all that yellin' out here?

Woke me up from my nap.

Ask Elijah.

Trenise missing and he blamin' me.

- What, why? - Ask him.

I'm... I'm out, I ain't got time for this.

Hey!

Ain't you the punk-ass cop putting away they brutha?

Yeah, that's that nigga.

Y'all best get out my way, move.

Oh, so you that brutha.

Draggin' another into the system.

He did that by hisself.

He wasn't doing nothing.

'Cept have a gun in his pocket.

They were hemming him up.

But I'm the one got shot.

You the cop, you shoulda helped him.

Punk-ass bitch.

What the fuck you say?

JG, uh-uh. They babies.

I don't give a shit.

Say it to me now.

Huh?

My fucking daughter's missing

and I'm sittin' around here messing with you stupid little niggas.

What you say?

- Get the fuck out my way. - Go 'round, muthafucka.

- What? - 'Heard me.

Just like everybody else.

Take your punk ass home then.

Fall back, soldier.

Y'all need a fucking clue.

Y'all see me pull my gun when I came in the middle

of your brother and them other little niggas, huh?

Did you, huh?

Fuck you!

- No, fuck you. - Uh-uh, JG, no.

All I've ever done is look after the Ville

and everybody here.

And what I get?

A slug in the gut.

And not by some white dude in the street,

but by one of my own in the same place where I grew up!

In a fucking coma for days,

not sure if I'm ever gonna see my wife again.

And my daughter, she ain't had shit to do with this,

and now she missing and you wanna ask me

why I put y'all kin in jail?

My family blood spilling right now!

So what the fuck y'all want from me?

What you want?

Nobody got nothin' to say, huh?

What do you want?

- JG. JG, come on, let's go. - You want something else?

He gotta learn some shit on his own.

The world can't bend for him always.

J?

- What you doing?

Jonathan Greg!

Yo, J, come on, let's go.

David!

Oh, well, lookie-here.

Look at who decide to come visit us from afar.

I thought you wasn't come back to this dump.

Where's Trenise?

Why everybody keep asking me that?

'Cause you told JG she was here?

- Uh-uh. - Never keep your mouth shut.

Mx. Elijah, you need to work on that.

- Where you goin'? - After my boys.

You know they're but two grown ass men

that just walked passed you, Gloria.

Still they mama.

But you need to act like they men.

JG, what you doin'? JG, hey, stop, damn.

Walk up.

Boy, come over here.

I asked you to go home, man, straight home.

- You trippin'. - Hey, Johnathan.

JG.

Move, JG.

Nigga, get off of me, I gotta go find my daughter.

Nigga, calm your ass down,

you can't go out looking for her

while you're all wound up like this.

So what the hell was happening back there?

Them niggas was coming up on me about Shalimar.

- I had to... - Had to what?

Flex?

Man, you never change.

- Same ole JG. - Go fuck yourself, Dai.

Don't start with that shit in.

- What shit? - Little boy shit?

You a grown ass man still acting like you 11.

What? I'ma cop.

I got a family, I deal with that shit all the time.

Shit you got no idea about.

Know what it's like to watch someone die?

I ain't die.

Part of you did die, J.

Put your ass in Trenise's shoes for once.

- She's grieving, man. - I'm right here!

I ain't the one you gotta convince.

I got quiet the same way did when Sky died.

It really messed me up, man, so you gotta be loud with her.

She wants you to be loud

'cause she's feeling some type of way right now,

and that's the only way she's gonna hear you.

I wanted someone to be loud.

Sky was the only one...

The only one.

I hear you, Dai, I do, but we ain't the same.

I got different responsibilities, different priorities.

I wish...

I wish I could have been there for you.

Back then must've been scary as hell, but I'm here now.

I gotta be here for my daughter.

Tell Ma I'm leaving in two minutes to keep searching.

If she wanna ride, she better be down here when I leave.

I ain't got time for all this, Elijah.

Everybody needs to stop accusing me

of all kinds of this 'n that.

I know you been done with me.

Ain't nobody say all that.

Ain't had to, your actions been speaking loud.

Barely comin' to visit, barely seein' you.

You know I be busy with them kids.

Then stay outta they business.

They business is my business,

I don't know how to be no other kind of way.

You know how to be outta mine.

And I have need of my friend.

I been, I been out here.

And you know it, you see it.

You the only one I let see it.

- We, we gotta go. - Where JG?

Waiting for you in the parking lot.

I'ma drive separate.

Drive?

We all gotta do our part, right?

Elijah, I gotta go. I...

Answer the phone when I call you.

If you call me.

Just answer the phone, will you, please?

I'll check on y'all later.

You know you fucked up the Ville, right?

We gettin' evicted in a week.

They already gave us the notice last week.

You spent your entire young life running from this place,

all you did was find a way to cut out the cancer

and destroy everything else around it.

- That's not what I'm doing. - I hope not.

But I know you better than you think, Dai.

We gotta find Trenise.

We all old around here, Dai.

'Least most of us.

Look at them faces when you walk up outta here.

The Ville ain't a bunch of buildings

you can just bulldoze and be done with.

We are living and breathing.

Man, that was oil slick.

Forget Elijah, I got a plan.

I always got a plan.

I can't help but have a plan.

Good at this shit, it's what I do.

Multitask, seeing things three, four, five moves ahead.

Gonna get that soil retested

and show Seren and show Marissa.

We'll see if it fits.

Let's go, let's get out of...

Shut the fuck up!

What?

I'm just saying, I figured it out.

We good.

You figured out how to do another report on this dirt,

but did you figure out if Elijah had a new place to stay?

They good?

Did you figure out where the fuck your niece was?

Sole purpose was to find Trenise.

Reason I came to the Ville in the first fucking place.

Find your niece, nigga.

But you couldn't stay focused long enough to do that.

Fuck how your brother feel, fuck all that, I mean,

as long as we here, we got a plan.

Niece missing for hours, nigga playin' in the fuckin' dirt.

To prove what?

What's the plan, nigga?

To prove that Marissa and Seren was wrong?

To prove that I know how to stay ready?

And for what, answer that!

For what? Hmm?

You got all that mouth,

but can't save the folks you fuckin' love!

Stay ready?

Is you ready if something happened to that girl?

Huh, can you answer that?

Nigga, is you ready if something happen to that girl?

Huh?

Huh?

Why you always talk to me like that?

I'm doing what I'm... I'm trying to help.

Why you always talk to me like that?

Always?

Fuck.

Phone,

text Dr. Halloway.

Dr. Halloway, yes, you were right,

I can't do this by myself.

I need your help, Dr. Halloway, please.

Tren!

Tren.

You had a friend who ran away once, right?

You here, honey?

You run yourself ragged and then you collapse.

Jonathan Greg!

- I ain't got time... - I have need.

I think leavin' is okay.

There's a roof over our head and food on the table.

Where is Trenise?

Take your forgetful ass back inside.

You already cost me time, damn!

Why do you keep going to the Ville if you got shot there?

- Trenise. - You and Mom gonna get a divorce?

Trenise, enough!

Do you think that this is the only time

that her feelings are going to get hurt?

By you, by us, by anyone?

I can't control them, I can only control myself.

That's right, and that's what she needs to learn.

That there is someone who is trying,

doing their damnedest to protect her from the world, you.

And someone trying to make sure she relies on herself,

that's me.

That's what we do.

Or at least that's what I thought we were doing.

You want me to say that to her,

or you want me to say that to you?

Saying it to her is saying it to me.

As long as you help my daughter, our child, see,

that there is someone who wanna keep her safe all the time,

even in a world that don't.

The world is not that black and white.

Our world is

was.

So, you saying you don't want it that way?

I'm saying I don't know if I can see it like that anymore.

Now let's cut our own shit.

I'ma go find our daughter.

Yeah, yeah.

So, up again?

- Yo, J, you found her? - Where is this damn girl?

Don't worry, we'll find her.

Yeah, just about to change, then I'm headed back out.

Yeah, of course.
