Gimme your fuckin' money. Come on.
Get your shit and get out!
So you don't wanna hear nothing I gotta say?

You're getting stupid.
Everyone in service is talking shit about you and Sarah.
- It's bad. - That's why you're gonna
- do this for me. - I'm gonna need more supplies.
Then you better get 'em.
Gimme the code and I'll help you find his killer.
Maybe there's something on there
that can help Jason's case.
You wanna play with guns?
'Cause we could always use another shooter.
So you in now.
- For real? - This shit is for life.
I can... I can pay you this back.
Hey, no hurry.
No deberías haber tomado ese dinero, hijo.
Tracy? It's been a while, huh?
What are we looking at, guys?
Guns. Government issued.
Wonder how they're getting that.
¡Sí!
What's the security like over there?
Nothing we can't handle.
You heard me. I don't care
who you gotta call, but I want that shit gone
- before I open. - All right, all right.
Te escuché .
Where Tep and JB at?
Now, see, that's the problem.
They've got other ideas about what I should be doing
- with this... - Oh.
No, no, no, whoa, whoa.
Come on in, young man.
Um, you want me to unlock the front door?
No no.
- Keep it locked. - No, you don't...
¿Qué?
Why don't we let him decide.
Mm, decide what?
How'd you like to make some cash?
Well, yeah, but I still owe you from before, so I...
It's okay. That's okay.
This is gonna make it good and then some.
"Demonios, sí!
- Emmett. - What?
Mierda.
...
What you doing with Emmett's cologne?
Look, women like it when men smell good.
- It's a turn on. - Hell, not that much.
And who told you that?
I heard you talk to Emmett on the phone.
The exact words were,
"Oh, baby. You smell so nice."
That shit turn me on.
Stop listening to my conversations.
Bien
I know you drowning yourself in this cologne
'cause you wanna impress Andrea.
Si, ¿y?
How do I make her like me?
You can't make nobody like you, Kev.
It don't work like that.
- You gotta respect girls. - I do.
Que estés mejor.
Can't have my little brother out here gaming.
I don't got no game.
"Puedo ayudarte con eso."
- How? - Tell me about Andrea.
- Oh. She hot. - Uh-uh.
There you go, objectifying.
Okay. Damn. Um...
She good at math.
Okay. What else?
Uh, she got nice hair.
It ain't that good, but okay.
- She has beautiful eyes. - Yeah?
- But don't tell her that. - Why not?
'Cause every player's gonna tell her that.
You gotta be unique.
Unique. All right.

New paint, floors.
Oh, and check this out.
Italian tile. Set it myself.
See how the light hits it?
Has a... a twinkle. Like little stars are trapped in there.
Well, I miss the linoleum.
Broke three glasses already. It's colder on my feet.
She hard on the glassware.
I'ma be hard on your ass if you don't
watch your damn mouth.
Well, y'all really fixed up the place.
Okay, so. I just need you
to sign these.
It's just adding me as the listing agent.
Pretty standard stuff. Just sign where I've indicated.
Yeah, I'm gonna have my lawyers go over that.
Ignore him. He ain't go no damn lawyer.
- Hi. - What's this?
Jerrika our new listing agent.
Well, what happened to the old guy?
Man, he crookeder than J Cole's teeth.
I was gonna tell you the other night,
but it slipped my mind.
Um... Maybe we should, um,
let y'all two talk.
Well, hold on, we still haven't landed on the listing price.
We can do that later.
mira, lo siento
They just... they asked me and I wanted to make sure
they didn't get taken advantage of.
Yeah, it's cool.
You been getting my texts?
Cierto.
Well, is it cool that I at least come by the apartment
- to get my stuff? - You got a key.
So just come by. Just let me know.
Is tonight okay, or...
Um, not sure I'll be there.
But yeah. Can you get them to sign that?
- What? - Man, you ain't
getting back with that.
That's too bad, 'cause she's one of those that earn...
You just not funny right now.
Well, you should've locked that shit up sooner.
What exactly are we doing?
We're helping out the community. Come on.
Excuse me, my brother.
No questions asked, huh?
Eso está bien.
How much are you paying for each gun?
Hundred bucks.
We've also got some gift cards.
Now do you wanna get a gun off the street?
I think it's better if you take a look.
Where'd you say you came across these?
Oh, and I could've sworn you said no questions asked.
I'd like my cash now, if you don't mind.
Will you take some gift cards, too?
We weren't expecting this many.
Sure, sure. I tell you what,
You throw in some of those baked goods over there,
and we are good to go.

What's your name, girl?
$ 285,000.
- Tracy Roxboro. - Hey, Tracy.
- Your boy
that basketball player.
Jason.
My Antoine was first saxophone in middle school band.
They made that big memorial for your boy
up near 79th street.
Ella lo hizo.
He was all up in the news and all.
¿Cual toca ahora?
Oh, yeah. "Shining star cut down
by the mean streets of the South Side."
That's enough, Tasha.
Her son gets memorialized and talked up.
But my son? Not a thing.
- That's not her fault. - It's still messed up, though.
If I was you, I'd be pissed off, too.
Entiendo.
It's a lot of raw nerves up in here.
So if you lookin' for hugs
or somebody to tell you it's gon' be all right,
this is the wrong place to be.
I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for.
Come take a seat.
Want some coffee, Tracy?
- Yeah, that'd be nice. - Good.
Bring some next time.
'Cause we ain't got none here.
- Oh. - All right, let's start.
Free to go.
I know what you did, Ronnie.
I want Jason's phone.
Unless you want me to start asking you more questions,
I'd walk away.
Okay, places everybody.
¿Qué es ese olor?
Uh ... No se.
Smell like my granddad up in here.
Ready, and, five, six, seven, eight.
Here she go, about to mess up.
- How you know? - Just wait.
Estuve esperándote por mucho tiempo.
Aquí viene.
Every time. Basic ass.
Good for all that dancing
but can't remember a line for shit.
Get your shit together, Andrea!
Hey, chill, Papa. Don't get your green panties in a bunch.
Cool it, guys!
Let's take a ten-minute break, everybody.
Man, Andrea gonna mess up our play.
Since when you care so much about the play?
What you mean? All the honeys coming to see me.
I gotta look good.
Man, ain't no girls coming to see your fat ass
in some green tights.
I look good in tights. I got the legs for 'em.
Hey, Kevin. Thanks for being a gentleman.
He just didn't have the heart to tell you...
Man, shut up.
Anyway, I was actually wondering
if y'all wanted to come with us to the rink later.
Si
All right. I'll see you there.
Can't believe she got you whipped like that.
Your ass don't even know how to skate.
And your black ass can?
When you gon' learn, Kev?
I'm good at everything.
Where the fuck did they get all these?
I don't know. Good God damn question.
We got a problem.
Hola
Head nurse been looking for you.
- For me? Why? - Medicine come up missing.
They know you been in here.
I was just getting stuff for Mr. Jenkins.
You know they had cameras installed, too.
El mes pasado
Mierda
Si
There was a memo about that.
Go on. She's waiting for you.
- Yeah. Thanks. - Yeah.
Pasa.
Jada.
- Hi. - This is Jim Peters.
- Jada. - Hi. Nice to meet you.
Uh, have a seat.
Que pasa?
I have some questions to ask you.
Ok
Are you aware that we have security cameras
throughout the facility?
Hey, Brandon.
Oh, what's up, Chef?
Inventory sucks balls
and I got a box of fish missing.
You sure? You check the walk-in?
It's not there. Somebody took it.
Nah. No way.
Where the fuck is it, then? 'Cause it was here yesterday.
I don't know, Chef, to be honest.
Find out who took it.
Why me, though, Chef? Like...
'Cause I asked.
Just find out.
Bien
"Mierda, hombre."
- What's up, peeps? - What's good, y'all?
¿Qué pasa?
Chef knows about the fuckin' fish, bro.
Yeah, so? What's that gotta do with me?
I know about the taco hustle, Luis.
It was just sitting there.
Last week he had me throw out five pounds of crab.
Well, you know he want me to figure out who did it.
You're gonna fuckin' snitch?
I ain't gotta snitch if you just bring the shit back.
You about to get off anyway, right?
Yeah, I finished all the prep.
Well, let's figure something out.
We gotta get this shit back.
All right, man.
Bien
- Ey. - Ey.
- Hey, we good, right? - Yeah, yeah.
Um... just... we'll talk about it later.
Um, I need to bounce out for a couple minutes.
- Is that cool? - Everything okay?
Yeah, I just... I just need to help my mom
with some of the house stuff I was telling you about.
- I told you about it, right? - Right, yeah.
Did Chef ask you about the fish?
Yeah, he... he seemed pretty pissed about it, too, so...
You know who took it.
What the fuck, Brandon?
Hey, it was... it was Luis, all right?
Yo...
I'll take care of it. I'll fix it.
I'll fix it right now.
I promise, I'ma fix it.
Come right back.
You know what I missed most down in Cuba?
Vienna dogs, hand to God.
Cuba, huh? How was that?
Yeah, well, it was a good place
for me to be for a while.
Well, I heard the women out there are super bangin'.
Yeah, yeah. So hot they'll cut your dick off
for looking at 'em the wrong way.
I can't lie, I like 'em a little crazy.
Yeah, well, you'll grow out of that, trust me.
But that's not what I was there for.
So how long you been working for my brother?
About six months.
¿Y?
I mean, he's your brother.
You know, he always coming to me with these sayings.
Uh, "Anything worth having..."
"Doesn't come easy."
- Yeah, I know. - You know.
Our daddy used to always say that.
- Mm. - He was a porter
for the Elgin, Joliet Eastern Railway.
Good, long, hard, steady work.
Gave folks like us a chance to be
middle class, you know?
Mm.
And that we were for 23 years.
Until one night, a train backs into the yard to switch tracks
and kills him accidentally.
You know what we got
from the train company
for all those years of hard service?
¿Qué? 1000...
and his porter whistle back.
I remember the look on my mother's face
when she got that whistle.
Sonny still has it.
Always used to tell me that
that whistle signified all the hard work
that Daddy put in.
And Sonny's just like him.
Believes in all that hard work bullshit.
And you don't?
Depends on who you workin' hard for, Emmett.
I watch Sonny bust his ass day after day
and he can still barely get by.
¿Yo?
I see things differently.
¿Qué es?
Emmett, do you know what I do?
- I got an idea. - Yeah? What?
I mean, you hustle.
No, Emmett.
I don't hustle.
I run shit.
De hecho,
I used to run all of this shit around here.
Then some crap went down and I, um...
I decided to take a step back.
- You retire or something? - Yeah.
Sí, algo así.
We got one more thing that I gotta do.
.
Sí ...Sí.
Bien
Good. Get in.
- What's this? - The fish.
Dude, try it. My cousin's salsa is fuego, papi.
Maldicion.
- This is good! - Yeah.
- But we need the fish. - Yeah, so, uh,
my cousin took the cart up to Wrigley.
Sold that shit out. Cubs game.
Well... well just go get the money that you made.
Fuck you talkin' 'bout?
We gotta replace the fish, Luis.
Well, go get the money. Let's roll.
Trace? Trace.
- We need to talk. - I know I told you
to leave me alone, Ronnie.
I spoke to Shanté.
Shanté?
Why didn't you tell me about her?
'Cause it was none of your goddamn business.
- She carryin' Jason's baby. - Please.
That could be anybody's baby.
That girl was trying to mess his life up.
- How? - Had him talking crazy
like he wasn't gonna be on the team no more,
he wasn't gonna go to college.
La amaba.
He was up there the night he got shot.
Yeah, so what the fuck do you want, Ronnie?
Why'd you lie to me?
You want the truth?
Jason didn't want nothing to do with you.
He saw you standing on the corner like you were some bum
and he was embarrassed.
Wow
That's some fucked up shit to say, Trace.
If you wanted to do something for Jason,
you shoulda did it while he was alive, Ronnie.
That's what you shoulda done.
Yo, I ain't gonna lie, them tacos was good as fuck.
Yo, so fire.
How much you think y'all make a night off that shit?
If the Cubs are playing, 1,500, easy.
Sell 'em as fast as we can make 'em, man.
Yo, good thing about food trucks,
is you just go where the business is.
That's a fuckin' dope ass hustle.
Yeah, but you gotta get a good truck
and not some roach coach.
- Hola. - Good deal on yellowtail.
How 'bout some of this red snapper over here?
Tico? How many snapper we got left?
- Coming! - My son can help you.
What the fuck? What the fuck?
Hey, yo, be cool.
- Hey, what the hell you want? - How 'bout my fuckin' money?
Hey, be cool, man. My mom's right there.
Your mom? Really?
Does she know you stuck a fuckin' gun in my face?
Look, man, just don't make a scene.
All right, well, hook us up with some of this red snapper.
Then maybe we could call it even.
Come on with it.
If you... you take it now, it's gonna cost double.
I know. I'll deal with it when I get home.
Te amo.
Dog ate a sock.
- What kind? - Labradoodle.
Told me it has hybrid vigor.
- What you got? - A 911 call.
- You wanna check the log? - Mm-hmm.
Número
They got nothin'.
No record of the call.
- How's that? - Could be someone
fucked with the phone.
Part of a case you're working?
Si
Well, you want, you can put that phone through tech forensics.
They verify that's a legit call then we got a mystery.
Now unless you got something else, I gotta take a piss.
Yo, Reg.

Big Mike out there, he gonna have to
rip off your bother's arms, beat him to death.
You want that to happen?
I ain't gonna do nothin'.
No, you not.
Go on, put it down.
It was that old ass man that broke into our stash house
- and took our guns. - Maybe.
Problem is, I put you in charge of that.

Careful, Detective. You sure you really
- wanna go down this road? - I'm bringing it

about a 911 call and softball.
The Jason Roxboro case has been closed
and Vice just pulled the ticket on the stash house.
Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. When?
A few hours ago.
Yeah, why is that?
I guess one of those gang bangers turned on the others
and they all shot each other dead.
That doesn't sound convenient to you?
I'll take it. So should you.
Man, I quit. This game rigged.
Man, you always say that when you get your ass beat.
Como sea.
Damn, you gonna have that stank face on all night?

So go on and tell him he's fired, then.
See that, I'm not doing.
Bueno
Brandon
- What are you doing? - Why the fuck

Because Luis stole from us.
He was just trying to support his fuckin' family, Sarah.
"¡Me importa una mierda!
If this restaurant closes tomorrow

who's gonna be there for us?
I don't rat my fuckin' friends out.
Lo dejo.
Brandon
I put your clothes out on the bed.
Gracias
No hay problema.
So you ever gonna let me explain?
¿Por qué?
'Cause I don't wanna just throw away
everything that we have.
Brandon, you told me you weren't gonna
do anything stupid and then I found a gun
and a bloody shirt in your backpack.
I mean, what the fuck?
I didn't do nothing.
- Okay. - You don't believe me?
I believe that you were messed up about Coogie and...
Look, I don't even wanna know what happened.
Well, nobody died.
- Great. - And the gun wasn't mine.
"¿Podemos simplemente no hablar de ello?
All right, then what?
Cómo va el trabajo?
Lo dejo.
¿Qué? ¿Por qué?
Trying to do the right thing, I guess.
Usted hace algo.
No.
Chef wanted me to fire Luis.
Dije que no.
So what are you gonna do now?
