"They would always be having parties for friends of theirs who just got out of jail or who was on their way to jail." "They only got married 'cause I was born." "My pop sometimes worked as an electrician or a cabdriver or a plumber." "But his main job was selling drugs." "Sometimes, Mom would use them all up before he could even sell them." "Then he'd have to beat her up." "Growing up with parents like that," "I heard a lot, and I saw a lot." "I caught on to the criminal life real quick."

"I just spent five motherfucking years in the joint." "I told you I'd pay your monkey ass when I feel like it." "You better suck my dick." "Suck on this, motherfucker!" "Tat, Tat, Tat, what the fuck, man?" "What the fuck you trippin' over?" "You owe me some money, motherfucker?" "Hell, no, but here you go." "Hit me." "Here, take it." "Caine." "That was the first time I'd ever seen my father kill anybody." "but it wasn't the last." "I got used to it, though." "Caine." "Kaydee." "Whatever you decide to do, remember what we learned." "And for those of you who are coming back," "I'll see you next year." "For all the bullshit they try to teach you in high school" "I graduated with about half of it." "But then, I didn't go to school 'bout half the time." "The other half, I was out selling dope." "Growing up out here, there was shit that can't be learned in no classroom." "What the hell you doing?" "Trying to ride this old raggedy thing." "You must want a new Big Wheel." "Yeah, because this old Big Wheel doesn't work right." "Look, I'm gonna buy you a new one, OK?" "OK." " All right?" " All right." " All right." " What's up, little man?" " Hi, Caine." " What's up?" "Caine's gonna buy me a new Big Wheel, Mama." "Oh, is he?" "You know you don't have to keep buying him stuff." "It ain't no thing." "This is my partner right there." " Ain't that right, little man?" " Yep." "So you finally did it, huh?" "Yep." "Finally done." "All right." "Oh, man." "Congratulations." "Hey, come on." "Let's make it in the house." "Ronnie was Pernell's girl before he went to the pen." "Anthony came right after that." "Pernell had hooked up a house and a little money for 'em." "but I still went by to check on 'em." "My pops was killed in a drug deal when I was 10." "And my moms was too strung out." "So I went to live with my grandparents in Jordan Downs." "It was only supposed to be temporary." "But my moms died from an overdose so I just stayed." "Hey, Grandma." "Me and your grandpa are so proud of you, Caine." "Thomas, come on out of that room." "Come on down here and say hello to our grandson." "The Lord's grace is with you, boy..." "And I wanna let you know that next week when you get that diploma..." "I'll be the proudest grandfather in all of L.A." "And I know if your mama and papa was still alive, they'd be proud of you, too." "It's all right." "Let's dip into the cock pot, man." "Graduation night." "My homey Doc threw a party." "My cousin Harold rode with me." "He stayed down in Long Beach so we didn't hang out that much." "Now, he was a hustler." "Had a Beamer, a crib, and a fat pocket."

"Where the bud at, fool?" "Hey nigga, watch me break these motherfuckers right here." "Y'all about to give up this snatch, know what I'm sayin'?" "A-Wax was older than the rest of us." "I mean, he was what we called a "G"." "Always in the middle of things." "Instigating, arguing, fussing." "He was funny to us." "I mean, he'd been putting in work for so long it got to a point where he just liked to see other people do dirt." "Now O-Dog was the craziest nigga alive." "America's nightmare."

"Yeah, you come over here and sit right there on the couch." "Hey, y'all." "Well, I guess I better let y'all talk." "Now, what I wanna talk to you two about is the trouble that you've been getting into." "Boys, the Lord didn't put you here to be shooting and killing each other." "It's right there in the Bible." "Exodus 20:13..." ""Thou shall not kill. "" "Grandpa, I ain't never killed nobody." "Oh, I doubt that." "And, Kevin, I've heard stories about you." "Sir, I don't think God really care too much about us." "Or he wouldn't have put us here." "I mean, look where we stay at." "It's all fuck..." "It's messed up around here." "You don't have any belief, boy." "The Lord don't care about who's got the biggest house." "My Grandpops was always coming at us with that religion." "And every time it would go in one ear and out the other." "Caine." "Do you care whether you live or die?" "I don't know." "Come on, man, let's bail, come on." "Boy, oh, boy, man." "Shit."

"Man, black people got too much damn religion as it is, man." "That's what I'm saying." "But anyway, man." "What's up on the shoulder, boy?" "It's fucked up, but it ain't no thing." "Oh, but that ain't what you was hollerin' on the way to the hospital." "Hey, you was: "Ohh!" "Ohh!"" "You was soundin' like a little bitch, man." "Oh man, fuck you, man." "That shit did hurt." "And you fools swear y'all so damn hard." "I heard that shit." " What?" " "Stay up, Caine."" " Who?" "Who?" " "Don't die."" "Shit, nigga, that wasn't me." "Tryin' to act all caring' and sensitive." "Yeah, that was you." "We still mad at you for dropping all that blood on us, man." "Oh man, fuck y'all." "I almost died that motherfucker." "Hey man, I was gonna tell you something before we went up in the house, man." "What's up?" "Oh, nigga, guess what." "Word got back about the little marks who jacked you and Harold." "I know where they be kickin' it at." "Down with the 187?" "Let's do this." "Do this for Harold, man." "Man, you getting down, nigga." "Yo, yo, yo, Wax, check out Caine back there with a 40, looking like a sucker." "What you get up in there, boy?" "Shit." "Hey, hey, check this out." "Check this out." "Boom, y'all!" "Nigga, did y'all see that?" "Yeah!" "Whoo!" "That nigga shot that boy!" "Straight up, boy." "Y'all didn't know I had that shit in me." "Give it to me, nigga." "You shot that Korean motherfucker!" "You like that shit." "Nigga, you always tryin' to put on a show!" "Dog, Dog, Dog!" "Yo!" "Yo, Dog, let me get a dub of this motherfucker, man." "This is bad, man." "Aw, shit." "Man, fuck that." "I'm sellin' these motherfuckers for 59.95." "I got money, nigga." "Fifty dollars, you can have this." "Shut up, Wax, you motherfucker." "Aw shit, this nigga trippin'." "Are you ready to put a hole in a motherfucker?" " Yup." " All right." "Shut the fuck up, nigga." "Fuck, man." "Hey man, this is what the police..." " Yo, man!" "What you doin'?" " Point that somewhere else." "Y'all scared like some bitches." "I seen lots of people killed before, but I ain't never done it myself." "I mean I never had a reason to." "But when they killed my cousin," "I knew I was gonna kill them." "Hey man, so you like my little tape, don't you?" "Yeah, that shit was cool, nigga." "Yeah, nigga." "That was proper." "But you should have came to the Wax, boy." "He could have did it much better." "Oh, shit, nigga." "It's all about O-Dog, nigga." "Yo, I'm larger than that nigga Steven Seagal." "I'm gonna be a big-ass movie star with that shit!" "Look, nigga, I told you to stop showing the fucking tape." "Man, why you keep on bitchin' about my tape, man?" "Goddamn!" "Ain't shit gonna happen." "All right?" "All right?" "Damn." "Now, we're just gonna find these little marks and smoke them." "Shit, ain't that hard." "As long as there ain't no crowd." "Look, I'm not killing no kids or no old folks, all right?" "Hey, man, who the fuck gonna be old out there at 12:00 at night, man?" "Shit, nigga, I smoke anybody." "I just don't give a fuck." "Come on, hit this shit, nigga." "Look, all right, not me, all right." "I'm not killing no kids." "You know what, nigga?" "You acting like a little bitch right now." "You acting real paranoid and shit." "Now, these motherfuckers smoked your goddamn cousin in front of you, nigga." "Blew his head off in front of your face and you ain't gonna do shit?" "You acting like a little bitch right now, nigga." "Man, fuck that!" "I ain't letting' that shit ride." "We gonna go ahead and smoke all these motherfuckers," "I don't care who the fuck out there!" "Goddamn it!" "Is you down, nigga?" "Man, both y'all shut the fuck up!" "Both of y'all acting like some motherfucking bitches." "Scared to peel these punk-ass niggas' cap." "Man, give me my motherfucking joint, nigga." "Fuck you, nigga." "Shit." "Hey, yo, Dee, why don't you go ahead and hook us up with one of them motherfuckin' hot dogs or something." "Why don't you get away from here begging'?" "Hungry ass motherfuckers." "Hey, who you sayin' beggin'?" "You." "Who you think you are?" "Why don't you get a job?" "Hey look, Dee, why don't you go ahead and get us one of them dogs." "I gots money." "I sell for my money." "Hey look, why don't you just go ahead and hook us up, Dee?" "What you waitin' on?" "Girl, you done hooked us up 50 million times." "I'm tired of hooking' your sorry ass up." "Go get a goddamn job." "That's what you do to pay for this shit." "Take your big earring ass and get us something to eat, all right?" " Fuck you, nigga." " Fuck you." "Fuck you and fuck you, OK?" "Y'all niggas, hurry up." "Go in there." "Book them niggas and get the fuck out and don't be playin'." "Dog?" "Caine?" "You hear what I'm sayin'?" "Kill them niggas and get the fuck back so we can stab out." "I'm gonna be chillin' right here." "Hey, nigga, I wanna know if you're ready to do this shit." "Are you ready to do this shit or what, motherfucker?" "And don't be acting like no pussy when we get the fuck out there." "Hey man, you wanna go to my house?" "My mom's made a big-ass pot of chitlins." "Yeah, let's rush them chitlins." "We don't need no hot dog." "That's where your ass needs to be, in the goddamn house." "You know you got a curfew." "Why don't you take us and get us some motherfuckin' burger or something, stupid-ass bitch?" "Fuck you, nigga." "It's time for both of y'all to go, okay?" "Let's go to your mom's house, nigga." " We don't need this shit." " That's what I'm saying." "Go home to your mammies, OK?" "Yeah, nigga!" "Break out, fools!" "Bitch, shut the fuck up before we blast your ass too!" "Shut the fuck up!" "Hey, homey, you need some help?" "Punk-ass nigga!" "Come on, niggas!" "I thought killing those fools would make me feel good." "but it really didn't make me feel anything." "I just knew that I could kill somebody." "And if I had to," "I could do it again." "What's up, Caine?" "How you doin' today?" "I'm all right." "That's good." "I'm tired." "I'm in there studying." "You want something to eat?" "Nah." "I'm straight." "OK, have a seat." "So, where's Anthony?" "He's in the back taking a nap." "He should be up in a second, actually." "Can I use your bathroom?" "Yeah." "You know where it is." "Shit." "I got some money this time, man." "I got two dollars." "You ain't got no motherfuckin' money, nigga." "Where the motherfuckin' 20 at?"

"I know I'm a little short, but, um..." "Motherfuckin' fool, nigga." "Come with 20, nigga." " Come with 20." " Man, I ain't got nothing." "Pay the nigga his money back!" "Give me my $2 back, please, man." "Give me my 2- I'll go buy a cheeseburger, man." "Let me go buy a burger." "Caine?" "What's up?" "Want to play me at boxing'?" "What you think?" "I'll whip your ass." "Anthony, what did I tell you about your mouth?" "What?" "Why you trippin'?" "What do you mean, why am I tripping?" "Because he's five years old and he has no business talkin' like that." "Well, you gotta be hard growing up out here." "Caine, that has nothing to do with being hard, okay?" "Because he gets that crap from you, Dog, and that fool, Stacy." "Well, Pernell showed me what's up." "And?" "Is that something to be proud of?" "And speaking of his father, I got a letter from him today." "He asked about you." "For real?" "What's he up to?" "Nothing." "Lifting and trying to read every book in the library."

"Break!" "Move, man, move, move!" "Hold up." "Now I'm gonna wear you out, little punk." "Let me see that." "The gun." "Where did I put that letter?" "Oh, here we go." "Is this it?" "Yeah." "Now, see, you hold it like this and pull the trigger." "Pow!" "Punk-ass." "Look, it ain't loaded." "What the hell are you doing?" "I don't want my son learning to pull drive-bys!" "Look, I was just showing him how to shoot." "Yeah, Mama." "Anthony, get over here." "Get over here!" "Let me tell you something." "If I ever catch you with a gun in your hand," "I'm gonna break your tail." "You got that?" "Get out of here." "Get up and get out!" "And how many times do I have to tell you to stop giving us money?" "Look, don't give me that shit, OK?" "'Cause I don't see nobody with no fucking job around here, all right?" "You know what?" "I don't need your money." "Look..." "Pernell looked out for me, okay?" "If it wasn't for him..." " No, listen." "No listen." " Don't start..." "If it wasn't for him my black ass would be dead by now." "I'm just paying him back." "You know what?" "Fuck Pernell." "'Cause you don't owe him shit." "All right?" "You need to be glad that you graduated from high school and that you're alive at 18." "And you need to do something with yourself before you end up like he did." "Look, I'm not gonna end up like he did, all right?" "Oh, really?" "Yeah, why you tripping?" "I mean, you act like you never was down." "What's up with that?" "Caine, it's not even about being down, all right?" "I got a little son to look after." "And you know what's really sad?" "Is that I look at you... and you remind me of how Pernell used to be." "Yeah." "And?" "Yeah, and what?" "Look at you." "I got to go." "All right." "Here." "Cool." "This is the good part." "Yeah." "What's up, nigga?" "What's popping?" "What up?" "Ain't nothin'." "Hold on." "Who that?" "Co-Caine." " Hey, nigga, where you at?" " What's up nigga?" "I've been tryin' to page you all day." "Who there?" "Me, Wax, Lew-Loc, that motherfucking faggot ass Chauncy." "So what's up?" "We gonna roll or what?" "Oh, so you down with rolling tonight?" "Oh, it's on." "All right." "Bet." "Turn this shit off, man." "Hey, wake that fool up to answer the door." "Yo man, what's up?" "Get your bitch-ass up and answer the door." " Got a baby doll and shit." " Because I like little girls, nigga." "Where your sister at?" "Where your mama at, nigga?" "Motherfucker." "Y'all niggas made something to eat." "Ain't made me shit, huh?" " Burnt you some." " You ain't shit, nigga." "Yo!" "Who is it?" "Uh, Nick?" "Yo, nigga, what up?" "Uh, nothing?" "Why you come to this motherfucker so early all the time, man?" "You said one o'clock." "I don't give a fuck what I said, nigga." "I don't get out of bed before 2:30." "Don't come to this motherfucker so early next time, man." "Understood." "See what you got." "This motherfucker here?" "Black Nissan Maxima." " Yeah." " 1990." "It's gotta look exactly the same, okay?" " They don't..." " Yeah, cool, cool." " Yo, Wax." " Yeah." " Yo, nigga." " What?" "Let me get some links with them grits, man." "Hurry up." "I'm hungrier than a motherfucker out here." "Go ahead, Nick." "It's gotta be in excellent running condition too, all right?" "Insurance company ain't gonna give you no money for a car that doesn't run." "Can, can you hang with this?" "Yeah, I'll hook you up." "All right." "Be here tomorrow night about..." "about 10:30." "I'm, I'm sorry." "Did..." "Are you sure you mean tomorrow night?" "D- d-do I stutter, motherfucker?" "No." "No problem." "Tomorrow night." "That's fine." "Did I stutter, motherfucker?" "No, you're right." "What, you scared to come through this neighborhood at night, motherfucker?" " Huh?" "!" " No problem." "You ain't too scared to have a black man steal for your funky ass, is you?" " You're right." " Man, get the fuck outta here." " Okay." "Thanks." "Thanks." "Thanks." " Don't bring your ass over here no more." "Go on back up to Westwood where you belong." "Hope you find your way down Compton Avenue, motherfucker." "Man, get your motherfuckin' heads down." "Got me out here with bullshit, nigga." "Could be at the motherfucking crib getting blunted and shit." "Got me out wasting my..." "One more, one more, one more." "I'm sure the shit down here somewhere." "Bingo." "That motherfucker right there?" "Hell, yeah." "There she is." "Oh, shit." "Look at the motherfuckin' wheels." "Hell, yeah." "That's it right there." "Damn." "Look at the rims." "Tight like a motherfucker." "Give me the Slim Jim." "Hurry up, motherfucker." "Let's get the fuck up." "Don't be trippin'." "I'll be outside." "Y'all niggas hurry up." "Caine, get me the motherfucking radio." "Are you watchin' out?" "Nigga, hurry the fuck up!" "Shh!" "I know what the fuck I'm doing." "You just watch out." " Nigga, you..." " Come on, man." " Got it." " Got it?" "Yeah." "Damn, man!" "Come on!" "Get in here!" "Damn." "Where the screwdriver at?" "No, no, the screwdriver." "Shit!" "Let's get the fuck up outta here!" "Hold it right there!" "Stop!" "Freeze!" "Let's go." "Okay, let him go." "Let's go, boy." "All right, guys, let's go." "Follow him down." " Oh, shit!" "Ah!" " Hey, man, it's a dog." "Hey, get..." "Get the fuck off me!" "Fucking dog, get off me!" "Hey, come get this motherfucking dog!" "Hey, get the dog off my homeboy!" "Get the fuck off!" "Get off me!" "Hey, come get this dog!" "Since it was my first offense..." "Well, actually, the first time I ever been caught for anything the judge reduced my crime from grand theft auto to attempted joyriding." "They let O-Dog off with a warning 'cause he was still a minor." "My dad had been to jail before." "Pernell went to jail." "I mean, even O-Dog had been to youth camp." "But I didn't care what any of them said." "It was no place I could get used to." "Motherfucker, you don't know me, nigga." "Man, you got some money or not?" "Oh man, come on, man." "You need to hook me up this time." "Nigga, you crazy." "Hook you up?" "Get the fuck out of here, man." "Check this..." "Check this out, man." "I got these burgers, man." "They some double cheeseburgers." "Nigga, I just ate!" "Man, I just ate, fool!" "I don't want no motherfucking cheeseburger." "If you ain't got no money, you just assed out." " Call this motherfucker." " Yo, Dog, hurry up!" "Fuck you, man." "Come on, man." "Wait, wait, wait, man." "Man, man, I'll suck your dick." "Come on man, just hook me up." "What the fuck you just say, nigga?" "I said I'll suck your dick." "Come on, man, just get..." "Fuck." "Damn." "Suck on that, you bitch-ass trick." "O" " Dog, what the fuck you doin'?" "Yo, Dog, hurry up!" "Any y'all want a hamburger?" "What's wrong?" "You don't want no hamburger?" "I don't want no motherfucking hamburger." "Even if it got cheese on it?" "Man, you stupid, man." "I got it from that basehead." "You stupid." "I didn't even have a record." "But when they fingerprinted me, the cops matched my prints to the ones from that bottle I dropped in the liquor store the night of the robbery." "Now, listen to me, you little bitch." "I'm gonna ask you some real simple questions and I want some real simple answers." "You understand?" "Let me get this right." "You bought the bottle of beer... about 11:15?" "Ye..." "I bought the beer and I accidentally dropped it." "You bought the bottle of beer... at 11:15?" "At Elev..." "Yeah, at 11:15, I..." "Yeah, 11:15." "Then why wasn't the bottle cleaned up?" "Why did we find it still... there..." "split on the floor... after the shooting?" "When I was..." "After we was leavin'..." "After, after I left..." "Other people was coming in." "They..." "When we was leaving." "But you don't remember what they..." "What they look...?" "But you bought the bottle of beer definitely at 12:15?" "Yeah, it was 12:15 exactly." "If I'm not mistaken, it was..." "Now, you see something?" "Now you see now?" "You done fucked up." "You know that, don't you?" " See what I'm saying?" " I said..." "No." "I..." "I thought..." "Yo, I'm saying you done fucked up now." "You know that, don't you?" "The more questions that cop asked, the more I thought I wasn't gonna never see daylight again." "...this time, you said you bought the bottle of beer..." "I was just waiting for them to tell me they seen that damn videotape." "But they hadn't." "Yeah..." "I..." "You know you done fucked up, don't you?" " I..." " You know that, don't you?" "You know you done fucked up." "Without the tape, they had nothing." "What's wrong with my brother?" "He's sick as a dog." "Look at him." "Yo, Caine man." "It's Stacy and Sharif." "You all right, man?" "Hell, no." "I ain't shit in a week." "Goddamn." "In a week?" "Come on, brother." "You wasn't there long enough to catch the HIV." "Fuck you." "What you fools want, anyway?" "You still want me to take you to get this car or what?" "Hold on." "Come on now, get up from off your knees, praying to that porcelain god." "That white porcelain god." "Why don't you chill, Farrakhan?" "Hey man, you better not throw up in my ride, man." "Ain't nobody gonna throw up in your ride." "Say, homey, why don't you come to Kansas with us?" "What, nigga?" "Hey man, y'all need to stop calling each other "nigga."" "That's what y'all need to stop doin'." "Anyways," "Nigga, I said you should come up to Kansas with us." "Nigga, what?" "You goin' deaf, motherfucker?" "You goin' to Kansas with this fool?" "Yeah, Caine." "You should come too, man." "I mean, you're not doin' nothin' out here but gettin' yourself in a lot of trouble." "I know your grandmother would be happy." "Shit." "I ain't goin' no place." "I think Ronnie got a lock on this fool is what I think." "Fool, you trippin'." "Caine." "Wait." "You still pushing up on Ronnie, man?" "Man, hell, no." "Pernell would kick my ass." "Nigga on life without parole?" "I don't think so." "You spent enough time up in that motherfucker." "You should be tryin' to fuck." "I know I'd be tryin' to fuck." "What about you, Rif?" "Yeah, whatever." "Here, put that in for me." "You better go somewhere with that black power shit." "You know that shit gets no play in this ride." "Man, I wish this motherfucker would hurry up." "There that motherfucker go right there, shit." "Oh, so what's up, y'all gonna kick it?" "No, man, I gotta go scoop up one of my kids." "All right, man." "As-salaam-alaikum, my brother." "Hey man, what that fuck is that?" "Man, get that shit out of my face." "That's for Junior and shit, man." "Now get your ass in the front seat, man." "Here's your ride, bro." "Hey, you got the bread?" "Shut up." "This shit legit?" "Hey, I told you, man." "My brother works at the DMV, man." "All the numbers are clean." "I had the dope ride." "But I was sittin' on some bullshit." "I needed some rims bad." "And I knew just how to get them." "And I sure in the hell wasn't gonna pay for them." "All I had to do was catch some fool slipping and jack his ass." "Turn that motherfuckin' shit down." "Nigga, what the fuck you want from me?" "Nigga, you know what the fuck I want, nigga." "I want your motherfuckin' Daytons and your motherfuckin' stereo." "And I'll take a double burger with cheese." "What?" "Wha...?" "Motherfucker, order my motherfucking food." "Hi." "May I take your order, please?" "Yeah, uhh..." "Let me have a double burger, some fries..." "Motherfucker, I said with cheese, nigga." "Shit!" "Hey, yo, make that a double burger with cheese." "See, you almost made me shoot your stupid ass over nothing." "Hey, come on, man." "We supposed to be brothers!" "Oh, what, you tryin' to get smart?" "Nigga, are you tryin' to kick some knowledge, nigga?" "Fuck that, nigga." "Give me your motherfucking jewelry, nigga." " Take that shit off." " Shit!" "And you got a pager, too?" "You're a baller, huh?" "You a baller?" "Yo, gimme this motherfuckin' shit." "Better me than the motherfucking cops, nigga." "Yo, what's up?" "Chillin'." "Yeah." "I had to creep up on some fool today at the drive-through." "Tryin' to high sign and shit." "I had to get him." "Yeah, but a trip." "Now, nigga, straight, I'm short." "Yeah." "I need you to hook me up with some shit." "How much you want, nigga?" "Give me like 400." "All right, give him 400, man." " What up?" " What's up, boy?" "Hey how much y'all fools got back there?" "Got enough, got enough." "You gotta make this shit up yourself though," "I'm gonna watch this motherfucking video." "All right." " What's up, nigga?" " Chilling." "Everything you need up on this damn sink." "Clean up before you leave." "This better be 400." "Oh, don't even come at me like that, partner." "Working for minimum wage was never my style." "I like big dollars." "I learned how to mix drugs when I was little." "Heroin, cocaine..." "all of it." "My dad taught me." "That was about the only thing he taught me before he was killed." "You in my way." "What the hell are you doin'?" "Calm down, baby." "That's one of my natural reflexes." "Oh, so what?" "You like being in my way?" "What you think?" "Hey, they call me Caine." " I'm llena." " Ilena?" "Goddamn." "This shit is gonna be good." "Real good, real good." " What up?" "What up?" " The Holy Koran says if you..." "I don't want to hear that shit right now, Rif...!" "How the fuck you gonna be talking to some other bitch?" "You better watch your motherfucking mouth." "Yo, Wax!" "Turn that motherfucker up, man." "Yo." "Yo, Stacy." "What up?" "That that nigga Caine out there trying to play Mack Daddy in the parking lot?" "Nigga, hell, yeah." "That's that nigga, man." "Tryin' to be me and shit." "Hey, yo, Caine!" "What's up, nigga?" "Hey, what's up, nigga?" "Man, leave that bitch alone!" "Nigga, what's up?" " So I'm gonna call you, all right?" " Yeah." "You take care of that body." " What's up, little Loc?" " What's up, fools?" " Hey." "What's up, Stacy?" " What's up, man?" "The fool think he hard, now that he a little convict and shit." "Hey, man, fuck you." "Hey man, which one of you fools put this picnic together, anyway?" "I don't know, but a nigga like Stace gotta get his eat on and shit, man." "Hell, yeah." "Lew-Loc over there bullshitting on the grill." "Man, what's up with that fool?" "All right, y'all." "Meat is ready." "Hell, yeah." "Yeah, and I'm out." "Man, why the fuck you all let this nigga win again?" "Man, fuck you, nigga." "I won, and I'm out, so pay me." "Pay me in bud." "Hey, hey, Sharif." "Hey man, is that your pops over there, man?" "Yeah, that's him." " Hey, how's it goin', men?" " What's up, Mr. Butler?" "Well, you know I smelled that barbecue." "You all know, I ain't passing up on a barbecue." " Oh, we heard that." " Pops wanna get his eat on." "Let me sit down, here." "I know there's some food left, right?" "Hey, hey, Keisha!" "Keisha!" "Bring Mr. Butler a plate!" "A nice-size plate, Keisha." "Anyway, Pops, I'm glad you come." "'Cause I was talking to my brothers here about drugs in the community." "And I always seem to be outnumbered, so, you know, I just wanna know your opinion of it." "You know, well, as I see Kevin trying to hide that reefer, you know, it's OK to smoke it." "I used to smoke a little reefer myself when I was younger." "When I was much younger." "Bet you ain't never smoked the chronic, though." "I ain't never..." "I don't know nothing about the..." "They're not doing nothing but destroying their minds, fallin' right into the devil's plan." "That's all they're doin'." "What the hell is the devil's plan?" "This is the devil's plan right there." "That's the devil's plan." "Man, what the hell are you doing?" "Hey, don't throw away my motherfucking joint." "Hey, 'Rif." "Why you always trippin', man?" "I know." "Calm your boy down." "I mean, you got a father, man." "And you got a grandmother and a grandfather." "And I'm pretty sure they tell you everything that my father tell me." "But you don't listen anyway, so, what's the difference?" "No, no, man." "Hold on." "Mr. Butler, man." "I'm just curious to know what's up about that, you know." "Sharif be comin' at us every day, you know what I mean?" "Straight up." "Why does he act like this?" "I mean, what are you all talkin' about at home?" "Sharif's a good guy, man." "That girl a little slow on that plate, ain't she?" " Hey, Keisha!" " Hey, hurry up!" "Bring the motherfuckin' plate!" "Excuse my language." "Why do you think that's so funny?" "Because it is." "You know, I could see it now." "You're gonna go up there and mess around and bring back one of your devils to my house." "Wait, wait." "You know I'm not bringing no devil to the house." "Oh, I see you checking out them white girls." "Now, you know how I feel about my black women." "Now why you go and throw that on me?" "I ought to take you outside and knock you out." " Right now." " Whoa." "Hey, boy." "I brought you in." "I'll take you out." "Yeah, okay." "What's up, Caine?" "Took you long enough, my brother." "Anyway." "Hey, Kaydee." "So what's up, young buck?" " Man, I'm all right." " Yeah?" "Hey, how's work?" "Well you know, white man always on your back." "But what else is new, huh?" "Have a seat." " What's up, man?" " Chillin'." "So what y'all talking about?" "Not much." "Just chattin'." "We talkin' about this Kansas trip." "Kansas?" "So what about Kansas?" "So what are you gonna do, Kaydee?" "You gonna fuck around out there in the streets until you get killed?" "Like your cousin, maybe?" "What's that, sir?" "Well, Sharif tells me him and Stacy have been trying to get you to leave with them." "Yeah, but..." "I don't know about no Kansas." "Yeah, yeah." "You know, I hear you there, you know?" "I was teasing Sharif about that before you came in." "But what are you gonna do if you stay?" "You know, Sharif used to get into all kinds of shit before he found the Nation." "Now, I'm no Muslim." "But I agree with some of the things they say regarding black people." "And if Allah helps to make him a better man than Jesus can, then I'm all for it." "So what you trying to say, Mr. Butler?" "Whatever changes you have to make..." "Then you just do it." "You got to think about your life." "Bein' a black man in America... isn't easy." "The hunt is on." "And you're the prey." "All I'm sayin' is..." "All I'm sayin' is... survive." "All right?" "Mr. Butler had me thinking because he was the only one who ever came at me like he gave a damn." "And Grandpops always kicked that religion stuff." "And my dad never said anything." "Pernell showed me how to survive on the streets, but Mr. Butler was talking about surviving for good." "So how did it go between you and that girl that you met at the barbeque?" "Oh you talkin' 'bout the baby in the black shorts?" " Yeah." " Yeah, I fucked her." "I did, fool." "Yeah." "Well, I hope you wore a hat, 'cause a couple of brothers that done eased up in that." "Come on, now." "Don't even play me like that." "You know I'm packin' the plastic." "Shit, I ain't going out like Willy Lump-Lump." "Well, if you don't pack the plastic, you're definitely going out." "I don't know if it's like Willy Lump-Lump, but..." "Whoever that is." "Who is Willy Lump-Lump?" "A little inside thing." "It ain't nothin'." "Growin' up in the hood, we were used to getting sweated by the cops." "I mean, they would follow us in the car, then turn away." "I mean, they would stop us for no reason and question us." "Especially with a car like mine." "A 5.0 and Daytons?" "I knew we was in for it." "Hands on the hood and spread your legs." "Hey man, this motherfuckin' hood is hot!" "Are your hands burning?" "I thought you boys liked barbecue." " Why don't get somebody's cat...?" " Shut up!" "You got a smart-ass mouth, you know that?" "Get down there!" "Why the hell don't you read me my motherfucking rights or something?" "Sit down and shut up." "Why don't you guys just read me my rights?" "I mean I got my tags up to date, man." "I got registration." "That's enough." "Come on." "Read me my rights!" "Just because I'm a black man." "That's why, 'cause I'm a black man." "I'd beat your motherfuckin' ass!" "That's why..." " Shut the fuck up!" " If I was white..." "Get the fuck in the car, both of you guys." "Oh shit!" "Fuck, man!" "This thing hurts!" "What the fuck you doing with us?" "Quit fuckin' moving!" "Hey, fuck this, man!" "Stop fucking moving!" "Shut the fuck up!" "I told you to quit fucking moving!" "Hey, get me the wire cutters, esse." "Fuck you, homes." "I ain't doin' this shit, OK, homes?" "So, what are you gonna do?" "Are you gonna go with me or what?" "Hey." "What's your fucking problem, man?" "All right, that's cool, homes." "I'll take care of it." "But don't forget, all right, homes?" "Hey, check it out, homes." "What's up?" "What is, homes?" "See?" "Over there." "Let's move on 'em, esse." "Don't sweat, OK?" "That night, the cops let us have it." "They dropped us off in the wrong 'hood, where the esse stay." "I guess they was thinking we'd get our ass kicked even more." "The esses was cool, though." "They took us to the hospital." "You know you can read this yourself." "I know, but I like it when you read it." "Okay." "Mom, why'd the police beat up Caine and Sharif?" "Did they do somethin' bad?" "No, I don't think they did." "I think it was a big mistake." "You know?" "Just a big mistake." "Like the same kind of mistake ever happened to Daddy?" "No, what happened to Daddy was something different." "You know, with Caine..." "Well, see, you have a certain group of people that don't like another group of people for whatever reasons." "And the police didn't like Caine and Sharif very much." "My friend Michael says the police hate black people." "Well, no, no, no." "That's not true." "That's not true at all." "Some of us..." "Mom, is Caine gonna die?" "No." "Caine's not gonna die." "Caine's gonna be just fine." "Okay?" "So don't worry about it." "He'll be fine." "You look so mean." "Why don't you smile for a change?" "I ain't got shit to smile about." "You're alive, ain't you?" "Yeah, and who says that's good?" "Well, guess what." "I got a job." "For real?" "Yup." "Sure did." "My aunt hooked it up for me." "Makin' decent money, too." "It's about 24 a year." "What the fuck you gonna be doin'?" "I'm gonna be doin' office stuff, thank you very much." "You know, filing, typing," " Hey, that's cool." " answering the phone," " That's cool." " Gettin' coffee." "Stuff like, like that." "Caine." "The job is in Atlanta." "Caine." "Did you hear me?" "I said the job is in Atlanta." "Hey, take it." "I mean, you might as well get the hell away from here." "Well..." "To be honest..." "You know what I was hopin'?" "I was hoping that maybe you would come with me." "Come with you?" "Yeah, I mean, you ain't doing jack shit here." "And the way I see it, you'll be dead or you'll be in jail." "I mean..." "I don't know." "I don't see it as such a bad idea." "Why are you so worried about me?" "Why shouldn't I be?" "Think about leaving, Caine." "I got to thinkin' about all the things I done on the streets." "And all the things I probably would end up doing if I stayed." "I mean, being on the streets was cool." "But I cared about Ronnie." "And, well, Anthony." "He reminded me of me when I was little." "And I didn't want him to grow up and go through what I've been through." "It was all so crazy." "I mean, things was starting to look different to me." "It was the end of the summer." "Ronnie had a little going-away party." "She and Anthony were getting ready to move to Atlanta." "And Stacy and Sharif were getting ready to leave for Kansas." "Why are you drinkin' up all the beer?" "I don't know what you been going on with that." "Could you please save some beer for somebody else?" "Oh, who, like Caine?" "'Cause whenever that motherfucker come over here..." "See, "Caine", that's the key word, nigga." "You ain't Caine." "Stop drinking' up all the beer." "You're all on his nut sack." " Hey y'all." " What's up?" "I'm gonna go get in this game, take some of y'all money." "Man, why don't you take your butt over there and try and talk to a girl for a change." "Why don't you go on and wash your feet?" "Stinking ass." "Kiss my ass, motherfucker." "You got one, motherfucker." "Hey." "Like I was sayin', how can we say that we're equal to the white man" " when we got to go to them for jobs?" " Oh, cut that bullshit." "Hey, get up, get up." "Hey Kevin, I was talkin' to the young lady." "She don't wanna hear that shit, Sharif." "Like I was saying, we're not equal until we have the same amount..." "Who is it?" " Know what I'm sayin'?" " Five-O!" "Five-O." "I'm selling encyclopedias, motherfucker." "Oh, y'all brought jokes." "What up, what up, what up?" "Please..." "It's the Wax in the house" "And the 'hood rat's in the house" "'Hood rats?" "Don't start that 'hood rat shit." "You know ain't nobody no motherfuckin' 'hood rat." "Don't let me break on your ass." "Hey, where's Ronnie's fine ass at in this motherfucker?" "You can break something on me..." "Yo, baby." " Yo, yo, yo, yo." " What up, what up." "Stacy, how many times I gotta tell you?" "Don't smoke that crap in the house when Anthony's home." "Goddamn Ronnie, what you talkin' about?" "You know what the fuck I'm talkin' about." "Go and take that shit outside." "And you take it now please, now." "You want to go outside with me man?" "Hey, little man, what you doin'?" "Just playin' games." "You know, if you need anything, I'm right in the next room." "I'm thirsty." "Can I have some beer?" "Beer?" "No." "You may have some juice." "This is for the homeys who ain't here." "My motherfuckin' cousin Harold." "Hey Rif, why don't you go ahead and get a little hit of this?" "It's all right, Kevin." "Oh man, you little punk, man." "Yo, what's up?" "Boy, you better get your butt back in that house 'fore your mama come out here and try to kill us all." "Hey Ant, what you doin' out here?" "Just kickin' it." "Yo, let me have a drink." " Hey, no, man." " No." "Man, give the little nigga somethin' to drink." "What's wrong with you, Kevin?" "Don't be giving this kid no liquor." "You ain't his daddy." " You're not either, Kevin." " Shit." "Anthony, what are you doing out here?" "You know better." "Come on." "Let's make it." "Get in the house." "And, Caine, can I speak to you for a second?" "It's about to rain out here." "Pussy-whipped." "She got that nigga in some panties, man." "Take your juice and go to your room." "Go on, boy." "What up, babe?" "What up, what up, what up?" " How you doin'?" " I'm fine." "Come here, come here, come here." "Chill." "Chauncy, chill out, nigga." "Oh, nigga." "I'm just joking, man." "You know you're my nigga, Caine." "Yo, Ronnie." "I'm gonna catch you later." "Caine, me and you, baby." "Cock-blockin' motherfucker." "Why haven't I heard from you?" "I been busy." "Well, have you at least thought about what we talked about?" "Yeah, about leavin' with you?" "Yeah, I thought about it." "Why are you trippin'?" "You ain't doin' jack shit here." "Caine, why don't you just come with me?" "Ain't nothin' gonna change in Atlanta." "I mean, I'm still gonna be black." "Just another nigga from the ghetto." "Why do you say stupid shit like that?" "'Cause it's true." "I mean, you act like Atlanta ain't in America." "They don't give a fuck." "You know what?" "You know what Anthony asked me the other night?" "He asked me if you were gonna die." "If you were gonna die, Caine." "Are you gonna come with us or not?" "Yeah, I'm gonna go." "Hey, hey." "That's not cool, all right?" "Let me guess, man." "You was up in there knocking' it out, huh?" "Get out of my business, Stace." "Me and A-Wax, Caine went to the Laker game last night." " Chauncy, please, would you stop it?" " Come here, girl." "Okay." "Let's not." " Come here." " What, what?" " I want to talk to you." " About what?" "Let me get this dance." " No dancing tonight." "You're drunk." " Come on, Ronnie." "You know I've been checking you out for a long time." "I know." "That motherfucker Caine be standing in my way." "Just... can you just sit down?" "You're drunk." "No dancing." "What's up with that fool Chauncy tonight, man?" "He over there tripping." "Just a fuckin' kiss, goddamn it." "Are you crazy, Chauncy?" "Will you stop it!" "Dog, you strapped?" "You know it." "Give me your gun." "What for?" "Give me the motherfuckin' gun." "What you gonna do, Caine?" "What you need a gun for?" "Man, come on..." "Caine, stop it!" "It's not that serious!" "Will you stop it?" "You're going to kill him!" "Get him off of him!" "Get him off of him!" "Anthony, get in your room!" "Get in your room!" "Fuck that, man!" "Fuck off!" "Fuck that shit, man!" " Yeah." " It's me." "Ilena?" "What's up?" "Caine..." "I'm pregnant." "What?" "I'm pregnant." "What the fuck you tellin' me for?" "What?" "What, so you're just gonna dog me?" "It ain't mine." "Look, you're the only one I was with." "Stop lyin', all right?" "Besides, I had the jimmy on extra tight." "That don't mean nothin', Caine." "That mean it's not mine." "Caine, so, what?" "You man enough to take a life, you ain't man enough to take care of one?" "Look, I ain't got time for this, all right?" "Peace." "Damn, man." "Hey, man, this motherfucker on this TV, he whooping this boy ass." "Man, I'm telling you, this is a good-ass fight." "Man, this is like Caine beating your ass the other night, man." "Yeah, nigga?" "I bet you Caine won't be laughin' after the five-0 get a hold of this motherfucking tape." "You can bet that shit, nigga." "Hey nigga, man, look, man." "If this was Caine whooping your ass on this TV..." "Hey, nigga, fuck Caine, nigga!" "Motherfuckin' Caine, nigga." "Don't talk to me about no goddamn Caine..." "Man, fuck you." " That look like you" " Punk-ass motherfucker." "If this was you on TV, you got your ass whooped." "I don't give a fuck what you tell me about it." "How you doin'?" "I'm fine." "And you?" "Livin'." "The baby?" "He's fine." "Let me talk to Caine." "Ronnie." "I love you." "It's been a long time, Caine." "How you doin', my man?" "How come you ain't never come to see me?" "Man, I didn't want to see you... caged in like some fuckin' animal." "Is that what you think?" "I'm an animal?" "Nah, man." "When I was growin' up... you was like my dad, man." "Your letters... in the beginning... it got me through young bro." "Away from my girl, away from my baby... away from you." "Go with Ronnie, Caine." "Oh, man, that ain't even..." "I'm..." "I know how she feels about you, and that's cool." "She's a good girl, man, you know?" "I just want her to be happy." "Take care of my son." "I can't do shit for him in here." "You teach him better than I taught you, man." "Teach him the way we grew up was bullshit." "All right?" "Give me some." "Hey, nigga, give up the car right now." "Look at your ass, scared straight." "Nigga, I was just trippin' with you." "Hey man, I ain't got time for this shit no more, all right?" "What's wrong?" "Why you acting like a little ho?" "Come here." "Where you just coming from, C?" "Went to the pen to see Pernell, man." "For real?" "That nigga get mad at you, or what?" "Aw, he all right." "Cool." "That boy out there." "Hey which one of y'all is Caine?" "Who is this fool, man?" "Who want to know?" "A friend, homey." "Oh homey, I don't think you know me." "Check this out." "I'm llena's cousin, partner." "She don't like the way you've been dogging her, and I don't either." "We supposed to fight over a bitch?" "I think you need to watch who you callin' a bitch, partner." "Yeah, and I think you better watch who the fuck you..." "Shit nigga!" "Go ahead, scrap that fool." "Rush him, nigga!" "Rush him!" "Hell, you stomp." "Yeah!" "Punk nigga, trying to come in my 'hood and tryin' to start all that shit." "Stomp!" "Stomp!" "KayDee!" "KayDee!" "Caine, Caine, chill, nigga." "Get your ass in the house!" "Punk motherfucker." "Proverbs 22:10..." ""Cast out the scorner..." ""and the contention shall go out." ""Yea, strife and reproach shall cease. "" "So, what you trying to say, Grandpa?" "Son, you got to go." "I don't want you to remain in our house another night." "What y'all want me to do?" "I want you out of here tonight." "We're sorry, Caine." "Y'all not too sorry." "I mean y'all kickin' me out." "I've done all I can do for you." "We tried our best to raise you." "But you're bad." "I wasn't gonna tell y'all till later... but in a couple of weeks," "I'm gonna be moving to Atlanta with Ronnie." "I mean, can I just stay until then?" "I hope you're not gonna mess up that girl's life, Caine." "Grandma, I'm not..." "Caine!" "Now, I sincerely hope you get your life together." "Lord knows I do." "But I cannot have you in my home one more night." "Grandma..." "Fine." "The same day I was leavin'..." "O-Dog had told me the cops was looking for us over that liquor store robbery." "He didn't care, though." "He just hid out with different homeys each night." "Doc dropped a dime on Chauncy's punk-ass." "O-Dog was gonna kill him if he didn't get caught by the cops first." "Man, I ain't goin' nowhere, man." "And you'll be a silly motherfucker... if you leave with this broad, man." "Straight up." "I ain't bullshittin'." "Shit, Ronnie." "Just you and Ant movin', or you takin' the whole fuckin' house with you?" "Can you just take the box to the car?" "Thank you." "What's this for?" "So you can take it to the car." "I don't know why y'all want me to help y'all move." "I ain't the one leaving'." "Sell-out motherfucker." "What seems to be your problem?" "I was just thinkin' about... sayin' good-bye to my grandparents." "You haven't talked to them yet?" "Well, if you want to, we can stop by there before we go." "But can you take some of these bags to the car, please?" "You keep bossing me around, I ain't going nowhere." "You ain't goin' where?" "Hey, cuz, you better come on, man." "Look, I just don't want you to go out and do something crazy." "Don't worry about shit." "I'm gonna handle this nigga for ya." "Yo, I got to handle my business." "Stupid ass, quit lookin' around, nigga." "Just get in the car." "What's up, homeys?" "Hey, let's go twist this nigga's cap back, man." "Let's go!" "Let's do this!" " Come on, dog." " I ain't gettin' paid for this shit." "I ain't getting paid for this shit." "Nobody's not gettin' paid, Kevin." "You already got a gang of shit in here." "Okay, Kevin." "Let's stop arguing." "Fuck that." " Fuck." "Y'all niggas ready?" " Shoot every motherfucker." "We got to break this nigga up something real proper-like." "Man, fuck it." "I just bought you a new Big Wheel." "You still gonna hit me, right?" "Just gonna crash into me, huh?" "Fucker." "Caine." "Caine." "Thought you was gonna help out, my brother." "You lazy." "L-a-z-y, lazy." "You're lazy." "You know that, right?" "I want some money for this, Caine, for real." "Yo what's up now, partner?" "Get down, Ronnie!" "Stay down!" "Damn, Sharif." "What the fuck happened, man?" "Get off me!" "I gotta get Anthony!" "Get up!" "Come on!" "Get some fucking help, nigga!" "Oh, my God, Caine!" "Get Anthony out of here!" "Get him out of here, man!" "Go get some fuckin' help, nigga!" "Get some fuckin' help!" "Not my niggas." "Come on, homey." "You're gonna be all right, man." "You're gonna be all right." "Get some fuckin' help!" "Shit!" "Get the fuck out of here!" "Oh, shit." "It's OK." "You're okay." "Don't quit now, nigga." "Come on, come on." "Fight." "Fight." "No." "You're just fucking me up again, you know." "Come on, baby." "After stomping Ilena's cousin like that," "I knew I was gonna have to deal with that fool someday." "Damn." "I never thought he'd come back like this." "Blastin'." "Like I said, it was funny like that in the 'hood sometimes." "I mean, you never knew what was gonna happen or when." "I had done too much to turn back, and I had done too much to go on." "I guess in the end, it all catches up with you." "My grandpa asked me one time if I care whether I live or die." "Yeah, I do." "And now it's too late." "."
