[ gunshot echoes ]

Yo.

- I got you a drink. - All right. Good looking, my dude.

No doubt.

Mm.

Yo, so who's that thing about last night, man?

Yo, nothing major, man. I get my man some money,

get some coke, he gives it to homie, and homie disappears.

Last night was the first time he came around.

Hmmm, well, that'd be the last time he come around, too.

The situation's about as dead as him.

Yeah, nothing that will ever be spoken on again.

Hmm?

Um...

yo, I got something I need to holler at you about

and you ain't gonna be feeling it too tough either, man.

- What's up? - Yo, listen to this shit, man.

Last night before I got up with you,

I caught this dude Kane trying to put in some work.

You trying to lay something down?

Nah, man, that other thing we do.

Get the fuck outta here.

- Real talk. - Yeah, well, fuck it.

He a grown man. He gonna do what he wanna do.

Yeah, he is, man, but he's about to run up in this bodega headless.

Nigga ain't do no homework or nothing, my dude.

He's standing outside the spot all on their surveillance not even knowing.

Yo, you only learn through mistakes.

Yeah, but those kind of mistakes

could cost him some years behind bars, man.

Well, he looks like he needs some time up north anyway, yo.

It'll be good for him. He'll look at life different.

- No. - Yo, you're not tired of babysitting a grown-ass man?

Yo, his brother would expect me to make sure that he good.

And you did, but he's too grown for you to be carrying him now, man.

Yo, Miz, he's about to get himself killed last night, man.

How do you know that? Don't underestimate the man.

Yo, Miz, he's about to run up in the spot

- with a BB gun. - Nigga, that's crazy.

How'd you find out, though?

Yo, man, I bumped into, um,

Little Mark from around the way.

Said he was just with Kane, said he was putting me on

to what he was gonna do and where he was at.

- Oh, okay, okay. - Yo, so I run over there and shit

I catch the nigga outside the spot

right before he's about to go in.

Yo, that nigga would've probably ran up in there and froze up,

bought a pack of Skittles or M&Ms.

- You know his scary ass. - Yo, I don't think so, man.

I mean, I took the BB gun,

but he talkin' about he gonna eat regardless.

Like, he said he broke and he ain't gonna stop till he get it.

About fucking time he stopped being a pussy, man.

It's good for a young boy to put in work.

- Well, I'm glad you feel like that. - Yeah, why?

You said we was gonna need some extra heads, man.

- You found somebody yet? - Yeah, I did,

but if you're thinking what I think you're thinking,

- you buggin' right now. - Yo, I can't let Kane

do these types of things on his own, my dude.

If he messes up, that shit could cost him his life.

We bring him in with us,

he makes a mistake that's gonna cost us our lives.

I know he's not gonna do no time for me or you.

- He get caught, he's gonna tell. - Yo, you don't know that.

Man, are we talking about the same scary-ass Kane?

I get where you comin' from, man,

but, yo, I need you to hold me down on this, man.

Man, you buggin', Rafe.

By putting him down, you're putting us in danger.

Yeah, man, but we can handle it much better than we can.

Yo, nine times out of 10,

we're leaving with our freedom and our lives.

Nine times out of 10 ain't looking as good for him, man.

You're still buggin', man.

Why don't you tell the nigga to go get a job or do something?

Yo, do you think I'd even be contemplating this shit

if he was tryin' to hear that?

I tried talking to him, man. The nigga ain't trying to hear me.

Yo, do what you wanna do, but keep that nigga out my way, man.

He's your responsibility. I'm not babysitting him.

Yo, I hear you, man. Say no more.

Yo, but who you bringing in on this?

I'm bringing my little homie Shane.

Yo, you know I don't like that little dude, man.

He's always acting like he's got something to prove, man.

Yo, how you complainin' about who I'm bringin'?

At least I know that nigga ain't gonna freeze up on us.

Like, you can't complain who I bring

after you say who you're bringing. Kane? Come on, man.

I hear you, man.

All right, then. We're good?

- Yeah, we're good. - All right.

[ music playing ]

Yo.

What's goody, G?

Ain't shit, my nigga.

I wanna tell you, good looking on that effort the other night.

Yo, I was looking for this nigga Donovan for a minute.

Ain't shit, man. That shit ain't about nothing.

The hood's been talking crazy about that Choppa, though, I'll tell you that much.

I don't give a fuck. As long as nobody's snitching, my nigga,

people can feel how they feel, man.

- They're free to express themselves. - A bunch of yardie niggas

talking about they're coming through to "wet shit up"

and all that behind that. I don't know, my nigga.

Man, listen, I don't give a fuck, my nigga.

I got a gun, I got no problem shooting it.

You violate, you get spanked. That's it.

The crazy thing is, niggas know

someone's zo-ing niggas for bread here,

zo-ing niggas for guts there.

Then they's talking about they filling away?

- Pfft. - Yo, my nigga, I ain't seen that nigga for a year.

Nigga stole 10 racks from me, my nigga,

and I told him whenever he poke his head out,

whatever hole he was hiding in, I was gonna put a hole in it.

Promise kept.

Man, fuck all that, though, man.

Niggas talking all that shit. I gotta go buy me a couple more guns, my nigga.

I can't be shooting these niggas with the same gun.

That's like wearing the same sneakers every day. Shit is corny.

Fuck them niggas, though, my nigga.

Them niggas know where they can find us.

Yeah, 'cause I'm out here.

On the next note,

I might have some food for us to eat, too.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

This nigga be coming through on the strip,

dropping niggas food and all that.

It be coming light and a little work and all that--

a little doobie, a little ballies--

but as soon as these niggas want, like, a whole joint, a whole bird,

I'm gonna call you. You can eat 'em before

or you can eat 'em after, either/or.

Yo, my nigga, let me know. You know I'm with whatever.

- Just keep me posted. - Bro, you know, hold on, I'm gonna go order some food.

- You want something to eat? - No, I'm good. Good looking.

- Chyna, Miss Chyna. - Mr. Cash.

So I finally get to meet the person who likes my pics on Instagram?

And I'm finally getting to meet the dude

who's barely liking any of mine.

Don't worry about that, 'cause I like what I see in front of me

- and that means more. - Mm-hmm.

I could've sworn you didn't like what you saw.

I mean, I was definitely surprised to get that DM from you.

I bet you got a lot of eyes on you, huh?

Don't worry about that. I'm a grown-ass man, woman.

- Do as I please. - Mm-hmm, I hear you talking.

So what's up with you, though?

Nothing much. Just a regular girl,

- unlike yourself. - What you mean by that?

I mean, you just seem a little mixy.

Nah, I just work hard.

- What do you do? - Honestly, I hate that question.

It's hard to explain when you don't have a 9:00 to 5:00.

I just say I do what I do.

With a name like "Cash," I would suppose so.

[ phone rings ]

Hold on one second, ma. Let me take this call.

I gotta go, ma.

Dudes with money never have time

and dudes with time never have money.

Shit. What you prefer?

I'm still trying to figure that out.

I'm gonna hit you a little later, but I gotta go, all right?

- Handle your business, Cash. - You know I will.

Yo!

- What's good? - Damn, son, you're always catching me slipping out here.

Nah, homie, you be sleeping out here, man.

I keep telling you to keep your eyes open in these streets, man.

These niggas will rock you in a second.

- You got it? - No, I ain't got it.

And I ain't gonna be out here with it either. It's hot as hell.

They boys keep jumping on you left and right out here.

Man, fuck that. I'd rather get caught with it

instead of without it. Niggas jump on you right now,

- how you gonna protect your life? - I hear you, man.

You hear me? You're the one who's running around here naked.

Your funeral.

Fuck it, though. My right-hand man Rafe,

he got the drop on something and I wanna put you on.

- Word? You know I'm with it. - Yeah.

- I knew you would be. - What's the layout, though?

It's a crib. It's supposed to be one dude in there

and there's supposed to be a lot of cash,

but we still gotta do homework and try to find our way in.

Way in?

Why we can't just back homie down and push him in? Simple.

That's what I said, but Rafe ain't feeling that.

He's saying it's on a main avenue

and we're gonna be too much in the open.

[ sighs ] Yeah, I know that's your right-hand man and all,

but why does your man always wanna think

- when we should just be moving in? - I hear you, man.

I'ma hit your jag. And go get your gun, man.

You out here naked, you buggin'.

[ music playing ]

Yo, I can't believe I'm even contemplating this shit right now, man.

What?

Kane, you're putting me in a real tough position.

I don't understand.

Yo, what I'm thinking, it's wrong.

It's so fuckin' wrong, man.

Yo, what are you talkin' 'bout, Rafe?

Yo, how bad do you need my help?

Pssh.

Shit, I never even got a chance

to tell you what I'm going through, man.

Shit got bad and it's only gonna get worse.

- What do you mean by that? - Cindy said I can't see my daughter anymore

- till I start giving her more paper. - What?

Yeah, man. I went over there to see her the other day,

I was a little stressed and she said I can't see her.

- Yo, that's not right, man. - Shit, tell me about it.

I know one thing-- I need to get on my feet

'cause I'm getting to that point

where I'm willing to do anything.

Yo, that's a dangerous point to get to.

I was pushed to that point a long time ago.

I just don't know what to do.

Kane, what did you mean when you told me

that the job that I could get you

didn't have to be a 9:00 to 5:00?

Come on. You know what I meant, Rafe.

Yeah, I know what you meant,

but I wanna hear you say it.

- I'm ready. - Ready for what, Kane?

To get some money with you.

Rafe, my brother's death wasn't your fault.

I don't blame you and neither does my family.

I wish I could believe that.

My brother made a decision

and that decision cost him his life.

Yeah, but if I didn't get him started--

If you didn't get him started, Rafe, he would've found another way.

Who knows if that's true?

You can't keep blaming yourself for what my brother chose to do.

I should've been there with him, Kane.

God makes no mistakes, Rafe.

You taught me that.

"God makes no mistakes."

Yeah, and everything happens for a reason.

- Sound familiar? - Yeah, it does.

So believe in that.

You can't keep blaming yourself for what he did.

We all miss him, but you gotta stop blaming yourself.

[ sighs ]

I hear you, man.

- Cindy's serious, though? - [ scoffs ] Yeah, she's serious, man.

She hasn't been picking up the phone.

I haven't heard or seen my daughter in, like, four days.

I don't know what to do.

Kane, you ready to work, man?

Yeah.

No, I mean my kind of work.

Yeah!

Yo, I can't believe

I'm even considering this, man.

Considering what, Rafe?

Yo, I'ma pull you in on a job

that me and Miz are putting together.

I know I told you that I was gonna do something

and this is me doing exactly that.

Yo, I can't have you out there

running up in bodegas with BB guns, man.

Are you serious?

Yeah, I'm serious, man.

I'd rather have you doing this shit with me

than out there running up in bodegas headless.

[ voices overlapping ]

Yo, where these broads at, man?

Yo, pump your brakes, bro.

They're gonna pull up in 2.5, man.

Could've been on the block getting my paper right.

Yo, cool your jets, Speedy Gonzalez.

That's your problem, man.

You wouldn't have to hold down the block all day

if you would just listen to me.

Yo, don't start your shit, Tai.

Yo, I'ma hold it down right now,

but we're gonna chop it up about that shit later.

Oh, shit.

Forgot, I got my hands on them joints you were asking for.

Oh, this shit is lit.

Jesus just answered my prayers.

You think you're gonna be able to move it?

Nigga, is a elephant heavy?

I don't got no cutsies for that, though.

I got this shit. Don't even worry.

[ voices overlapping ]

- [ car horn honks ] - Again? This again?

Come on, man.
