"I beat those little motherfuckers, and I got my club on the brink of everything I ever wanted." "This is it." "Well, I'm happy for you." "For us, T." "This deal means that the Truth brand will expand beyond my wildest dreams, but, more importantly, our children will have legit money behind them for the rest of their lives." "I got to say, you said you would make it on the club side, and..." "you pulled it off." "I was wrong." " You did a great job today." " Mm, yeah." "The kids seemed to enjoy it, but I don't know if the Bougie Bitches Club noticed." "I noticed." "That stuff you said today about us..." "Mm-hmm." "About me and the kids... [ delicate piano music ]" "You mean it?" "Every single word." "*" "I'm glad you found a way to get Milan his money." "Thank you." "Thank you for protecting us from him." "Look at me, Tasha."

"Who'd you want that to be?" "I've known you a long time, Ghost." "Can't nothing be wrong on your big night, right?" "Once I get this call, the night's about to get bigger." "Mm." "Because Ruiz is gonna help me take down Milan." "Wait, what?" "What are-- What are you talking about?" "I got a plan in motion to get us out from under Milan once and for all." "Ruiz?" "[ scoffs ]" "I mean, you think you can trust him?" "Tash..." "I got way too much on him, it makes it hard for him not to play ball." "I don't know about this plan, Ghost." "Maybe you should be careful when" "The plan's already in motion as we speak." "Just waiting on the call." "I mean, while I'm waiting, you know, probably got time for round two." "I don't know." "I-I need to think before we" "I think maybe you should go back to the office." "Wait, you-you serious?" "Tasha, we just" "I mean, what are the kids gonna think when they come in here in the morning and see you sleeping in my bed?" "It ain't us getting back together, is it?" "You're probably right." "I'll go." "Good night, T." "Good night, Ghost." "[ phone vibrates ]" "Hmm." "Yo, T, what's good?" "Ghost just told me he's gonna take out Milan." "He didn't tell me the specifics, but he told me he's using Ruiz to do it, right now." "Milan said that if Ghost doesn't fall in line, he's gonna kill me and the kids." "You need to find out what's going on with Ghost, and you need to stop him." "*" "Listen, I got you, T." "I'm gonna take care of it." "Thanks for calling." "Get yourself some sleep."

"One of Lobos's, uh, henchmen was found dead a few days ago-- a Hugo Sanchez." " No shit?" " Why would he still be here?" "If he was working for Lobos, that job ended when the man was shot." "Sanchez must've still been communicating with someone on the inside, probably this leak everyone's looking for, but I guess he can't be a witness now, huh?" "No, I guess he can't." "Unless we find out where he was staying." "Maybe he met with a person there, huh?" " I'll look into it." " No, I'll do it." "You go home." " You sure?" " Yeah, for sure." "Great work." "All right." "Thanks." "*" "[ footsteps approaching ]" "Boom!" "[ indistinct conversation ] [ laughter ]" "My kids would cry." "Everybody" "This is good." "So we're all one big happy family now?" "Well, Milan heard my concerns and helped me to understand my importance here." "So we're good." "We're going to have a drink, Tommy, to celebrate our continued relationship." "You will be joining us." "I got to call it a night." "I got a meet across town." "I told Poncho to take off." "I said I'd give you a ride home..." " Oh" " But we got to break now."

"Hey, Ruiz..." "You know what it's like to be betrayed." " Yes, I do." " Yeah." "I know." "I know." "Somebody you trust constantly looking you in the eye but lying to your face-- there's no going back." "That's how he does it-- one side of his mouth telling you what he thinks you want to hear and the other side giving you just enough to make you think he actually gives a fuck about you and what you think." "[ chuckles ]" "But he don't care about what happens to you." "He just uses you until he don't need you no more." "That's what doing Lobos was about." "Tommy, it's been a long night." "What do you say we leave it alone, huh?" "Me and Ghost killed him to start over, but it was never about that, just like going from corner boys to running the biggest shop in New York fucking City wasn't about being gangsters." "It was all for him, all so he could figure another way to get out." "[ engine grinding ]" "What's wrong?" "Ah, just--the old bitch, she's overheating." "[ sighs ]" "Better pull over, check it out." "Older cars-- you know how it is." "*" "Sit tight." "I'll be a second." "*" "Hey, Ruiz, you get me my flashlight in the glove box?" "I used to work on my dad's car." "If it's overheating, you're gonna have to-- [ grunts ]" "Tommy, what are you doing?" "You're gonna regret this." "No, I won't, 'cause it ain't me doing this to you." "It's Ghost."

"Ruiz told me about it..." "Right before I stabbed him." "Ruiz is--he's dead?" "Tommy, where's the body?" "Where's the body?" "It's under the fuckin' LIE, where I left it." "Who gives a fuck about the body?" "I told you, one more time, and Milan was gonna kill me, and you looked me in the face, and you said you weren't." "What makes you think Milan isn't gonna kill us tomorrow or the next day or the next fucking day after that?" "You fucking lied to me, Ghost." "To me." "I didn't want you in the dark." "I wanted to do this with you-- take Milan's fucking ass down." "Why?" "Because Milan out of the way benefits both of us, man, but I didn't think I'd get you to see it." "So yes, I lied, all right, but if you want me to say" "I'm sorry-- to fucking sit here and say I'm sorry, it's not gonna happen, Tommy." "I want out, man, and I'm never gonna stop, never, until I get out." "So unless you put me down, right here, right now, it is what it is, man." "You said getting Milan out the way benefits both of us." "That right?" "Yeah, I said that." "Help me see that." "Okay." "You want to run the drug business the way you want to run it, and I want to run my life the way I want to run it." "As long as Milan's in charge, Tommy, it ain't gonna happen, man, for either one of us." "But I'm getting in so good with him." "Tommy, he's a fucking psychopath, man, and every day you--you allow him to dig his claws in, it's one more day he gets closer to the organization becoming his." "So I say we fucking get rid of him, man." "And you can mark your own path, brother." "I just need some time to come up with a plan to take Milan down." "I just need some time." "No." "Tommy" "Ghost..." "If we're gonna do this-- kill Milan-- I call the shots." "I'll come up with a plan." "Call you in the morning." "*" "MILAN: [ muttering ]" "Tommy, I didn't expect to see you back tonight." "What's going on?" "A few days ago, you asked me if I was one of you." "I did." "Yeah, you did."
