Wow! I mean, God damn.

Y-Y'all look like you did 10 rounds with Adonis Creed.

And y'all didn't see nothing, huh?

Man, I told y'all, it was dark.

He had a mask. He had body armor and shit.

Man, the nigga looked like LEGO Batman, all right?

Batman? LEGO Batman.

Does that make you the Joker and the Penguin? Huh?

[ Laughs ]

[ Sighs ] Compton Crusader. Damn.

You know, they already had a Compton Crusader up on Hollywood Boulevard,

posing with tourists like all those other bootleg-ass superheroes.

Yeah, well, people need heroes, too. Come on.

[ Laughs ] They do.

Dianne: You know, whoever this guy is

has basic knowledge of tactics, surveillance.

He hasn't made any mistakes on this one.

None. Hmm?

Well, well, well.

Detective!

Look like you got a little competition around here.

Finally got somebody to keep the people safe.

You wouldn't know anything about this, would you, Lloyd?

I know about everything.

I keep my ear to the streets, but I need my hearing aid.

Lloyd, please. I don't walk around with a fifth of Darby in my purse.

Can you believe this guy?[ Laughs ]

Darby?

Darby can kiss my ass.

Okay.

No Darby?

W-Word is Jesus performed a miracle

and Lloyd can't get drunk.

Probably saved his life.

He ruined it. That's what he did.

Darby was the only friend I had in times of trouble.

Now my only friend I got now is my boy Benjamin.

Benjamin?

Yeah, the nigga that fly that kite.

[ Sighs ] For crying out loud. I can't...

I got it. [ Clears throat ]Oh, no, partner.

Mnh. Sss.

Think this'll help your hearing a little better?

$5? No, no, no.

I said "Benjamin", not "Lincoln".

That mulatto-ass son of a bitch ain't gonna get you nothin'.

Well, if you don't want it... Ah!

Ehhhh...

I-I'll take it. -Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

All right. Y'all ready?

-Hold on. -Listen to me.

All right. This is gonna blow the case wide-open.

[ Clears throat ]

The Compton Crusader is...

[ Coughs, clears throat ]

...an African-American male.

Thank you, kindly. Have a mighty nice day.

H-Hey! Hey!

Many believe that the Compton Crusader

is more hero than villain.

Neighborhood advocates are concerned

that innocent residents may be harmed.

See, my guess is,

them Compton Crusaders ain't packin' no real heat.

Why you say that? I bet he has a bunch of guns and ammo.

No, I'm not talking about that kinda heat.

I'm talking about in the bed.

I took a psych class. [ Chuckles ]

And it said that dudes that like to beat people up

and wear costumes are just overcompensating

for small genitalia and erectile issues.

Look here.

My -- a-and by "my", I mean --

I'm pretty certain my man the Compton Crusader's package

is damn big and hella functional.

Right, Boonie?

Nigga, how the hell should I know?

I know I'd give the Crusader a chance.

I see a fine man in uniform, and my panties get so humid,

it's like taking off a wet suit.

"Wh-khh! Wh-khh!" [ Cackles ]

Nessa: But what if his stuff is really small, though?

Even the small stuff can get the job done.

All they got to do is a little flick,

and from what I hear about the Compton Crusader,

he can flick up in my stuff any damn time.

[ Laughs ]

[ Gagging ]

You done?

Suddenly, I'm not as hungry as I thought.

Hey.

I'll give it a flick.

[ Grunts, chuckles ]

So, Ms. Tudi got y'all out there slanging that low budget, huh?

Man, I'm so glad I still ain't out there doing that shit.

It sure feel good to kick it with the homie one more gear, man.

Shit feel like old times.

Look at you, man -- you all settled,
