"If you come by the house, I have copies of the police reports they would release to me." "Along with Max's personal items." "Yo." "Hello." "Can I help you?" "Sign says room for rent." "I have a few apartments available upstairs." "This the kind of place you're looking for?" "Can I see the room?" "Yeah." "Follow me."

"Well, I didn't mean to bother you or anything but I just wanna see if there's any updates, you know, intel on my son's case." "As I explained to your wife" "You mean my ex-wife." "Ex-wife." "the chances of finding your son's killer are slim to none." "He was one of ours, we don't take that lightly but it looks like it was a random gang shooting." "It's kind of disappointing to see that kind of confidence from my son's own team, you know?" "I understand." "Unfortunately, the numbers worked against us." "Last year, we had 487 homicides almost half of which were gang related." "Good news is, that's down 6 percent from the year before." "does that mean you have no evidence whatsoever?" "He was found in the street next to his car." "A random shooting." "Killer probably never stepped out of the car." "All we do have is the bullet, which we recovered from him." "What calibre was that?" "Forty." "Mr. Ballister, he was a well-respected officer." "We were all very fond of him." "Listen, would you mind if I give you a call now and again?" "Not at all."

"I heard you was asking about Max." "Max Ballister." "did you know my son?" "I mean, I ran numbers, Max, he worked Vice, so...." "You know, times came, I helped him out with a couple tips on a few local joints in the area, and things like that." "I got you." "So you're a snitch." "Man, that's a rude term, man." "I was a Cl, all right?" "I was a confidential informant." "In other words, you're a snitch." "You a cop too?" "Not exactly." "You Simon." "See, Max" " Yeah, man." "Max, he mentioned you couple times." "Hey, look, man, I don't know you that well, man but the East Side Gangsters, they run this neighbourhood." "ls that right?"

"Knock, knock, nigga." "What the fuck's your bitch ass doing off in here?" "Looks like your luck just ran out." "You know what, man?" "Luck is a funny motherfucking thing." "Oh, why's that?" "Luck can change in the blink of a motherfucking eye." "You're a badass white boy, huh?" "Think you bad, huh?" "Come on, motherfucker." "You" "Motherfucker, you wanna tell me who killed my son?" "Man, I don't know shit." "You don't know shit, huh?" "Who killed my son?" "Nigga, fuck you." "I'm gonna be doing the fucking now." "Man, fuck y'all." "What'd you say?" "Fuck you. I don't know shit." "Shit!" "Man, in my fucking ear." "Fuck. I'm gonna smoke your ass." "l'm gonna ask you one more time." "Hey, all right, look." "I'll get you some knowledge, all right?" "Shot my fucking ear off." "Who killed my son?" "lt wasn't who you think it is, all right?" "lt ain't who I think?" "What's that mean?" "Nigga, it wasn't us." "Shit." "You motherfucker I'm gonna get your ass."

"Armand, why are we playing these games?" "Well, Benny, I like games." "I've got a game we can play." "It's got one question:" "Why are you a snitch?" "No, I'm not a snitch." "That ain't what I heard." "You should be working for CNN the way you put my business out." "Armand, look at what I gave you." "There's a major deal going down and I risked my life to bring you this information because I respect you." "Because I wanna do business with you." "I wanna do business with you too, Benny." "Let me cut this cheque for you." "Thank you." "You should know nigga's cheque's gonna bounce." "What the fuck are you doing?" "Oh, my bad." "I didn't like the way he smelled." "All right, look." "I've got most of the information on the deal he was brokering." "l'll keep you informed." "Oh, the fuck you will." "You let me know when and where, me and my boys will be there." "Like I said, I will keep you informed." "What the hell happened to you two?" "Man, some big-ass white boy jumped us." "A white boy." "What?" "Nigga, are you deaf?" "Yeah, man." "That nigga is." "Look, some big-ass white boy as in Paul Bunyan motherfucker, came out of nowhere up in the spot did some kung fu shit on my little homey and me grabbed that nigga's gun and shot his ear." "Nigga, please." "What?" "Hey, take it easy, all right?" "Just put the gun down." "Relax." "Where's Maurice and Anthony?" "Man, them niggas gone, man." "He smoked both them fools." "One dude?" "Yeah." "One dude smoked two of my motherfuckers?" "What are y'all, bitches?" "do I have to buy y'all dresses?" "You niggas want miniskirts, tutus?"

"Think you're gonna take a brother down?" "Remember Scarface, motherfucker?" "" Look at you now." "Look at you now, you fuck."" "So it must feel good to be able to put to use those lessons you learned in the military." "Yeah, well, I really wasn't in the military." "You're not a salesman, Simon." "And you're not a cop." "And someone taught you how to fight like that." "No, no, no." "All the fighting stuff, I got that off home videos." "Whatever." "Listen, could I ask you a question?" "Shoot." "Those bangers that were here, what gang are they with?" "Hyde Park." "They're Chivo's boys." "Chivo had something to do with your son's murder?" "I'll let you know." "Hello." "Hello, this is Simon." "Simon?" "Yeah...." "Yeah, Max spoke very fondly about you." "I saw you at the funeral." "I wanted to come over and pay my condolences but I just wasn't quite in the mood, sorry." "I understand." "I wanted to see if the police had been by to interview you and whether or not they returned any of Max's property, or...." "They were more interested in any files or paperwork that he might have brought home." "did Max have anything on a computer, by any chance?" "Yeah, but the police took it." "Well, listen, I just want you to know one thing." "I will find who did this to my son." "And if you need anything, you call me, you hear?" "All right, babe." "Shoot it." "Defence." "Come on, man, don't let them score again." "Man." "Pass the ball, man." "Make some shots, I could dish it to you." "You playing with no d on it." "They done got three points, man." "It's 9-7." "You wanna win this or what?" "You crazy?" "We need to talk." "Look around you, fool." "You see all those eyes on us?" "Any of them see me get in that car, I'm dead." "You feel me?" "Well, look, I'll just pretend like I'm a policeman." "You know?" "You ain't no cop, that's for sure, man." "Heard what happened to them boys." "News in the 'hood travels fast, don't it, now?" "Look, man, I need your help." "What's up, partner?" "lt's good, homes." "What kind of help?" "I need you to help me find who killed my son." "Ain't no way nobody ever gonna find his killer, man, that's for damn sure." "You have to tell me what you know." "What you gonna do if you find the shooter, huh?" "I'm gonna kill him." "I don't care who ordered the hit." "I don't care whose business is what." "I just wanna know who killed my son." "It's not looking good for me, man." "Get in the car." "All right, showtime." "What do you know?" "Man, look, man, there's this Mexican called El Chivo, all right?" "The goat?" "Yeah." "He runs the Hyde Park Gang." "Them motherfuckers there." "You think this guy might have pulled the trigger?" "Maybe." "I mean, maybe he had somebody pull a drive-by." "Well, like I said, I don't really care about who ordered it or anything." "I just want the shooter." "Well, if it came from Chivo, he would know who did it." "You have any idea why he might want my son dead?" "Max, man...." "Look, he hit them bookie joints hard, man." "Chivo, he runs most of them." "You know how it is, man." "You start fucking with a man's money, you could end up dead." "Where can I find this guy?" "He got a club on Slauson called Anodyne, all right?" "He's there most nights." "All right, you did good, man." "I'll see you soon, you hear?" "Thank you." "Yeah, man." "Right." "Hey, Gary." "This yours?" "What the fuck is he doing?" "don't worry about it, dude." "Look like he talking to some cop." "Talking to a cop?" "Man, you better check this, man." "dude, that's my little brother, all right?" "I'll handle that shit." "All right." "don't fucking worry about it, all right?" "Hey, Isaiah, what up, man?" "The fuck was that about?" "Nothing." "don't fucking lie to me." "Who is he?" "That cop's old man." "You tell him anything?" "Just where to find Chivo and them." "You believe this shit, yo?" "Man, does a chicken have lips?" "Shut up." "Like I give a fuck." "Come on, man." "All right, yo." "Listen." "You stay the fuck away from him, feel me?" "He came looking for me." "l don't give a fuck." "If I see you with him again, I'm gonna whup your ass, all right?" "All right?" "All right, man." "Yo, tell Moms I won't be home tonight." "Where you gonna be?" "Don't worry about it, just tell her." "Fine." "l'm out, yo." "All right." "Excuse me, sir." "Could I talk to you?" "Why don't you get out of here?" "You know, I wanna see Chivo." "You know, the problem is, this is a private club and your name's not on the list." "So why don't you just get the fuck out of here?" "You look like a smart guy." "I'll tell you what I'm gonna do." "I'll give you 5 bucks if you could let me in." "How's that?" "l'll tell you what, tough guy." "What?" "If you can make it back down, you and me, we've got a date." "All right." "Why don't you go on in?" "Hey, man, private club." "Who the fuck--?" "Hey, hey." "I'm Simon Ballister, Max's father." "Sorry to hear about your son." "I wanted to talk to you for a minute, if I could." "Girls, I have to say, I've found something more important than you right now." "I'll be back." "So you're the crazy vato that's been beating the shit out of all my guys." "Well, I've been trying to get some answers, you know?" "Yeah." "Kind of becoming a habit with you, ain't it?" "I hope not." "Some folks say you might know something about who killed my son." "Now, let me take a guess." "You heard that from some myopic gangbangers, right?" "That's right." "I thought so." "Why would I wanna kill Max?" "He was a good cop." "We were a lot alike, both pillars of the community." "We both helped our people our own way." "Well, you know, seems like maybe he took down a few of your joints." "So what?" "This is the barrio." "Takes down one of my joints today, it's back up tomorrow." "And besides, we all know what kind of heat a dead cop brings." "No." "You ever heard of a gang called the East Side Gangsters?" "Heard it came from them." "It sounds like maybe you're asking me to take out your competition." "I am." "East Side Gangsters been trying to cut into my territory for years." "Especially that Armand Tucker." "Yeah, I want you to take them down but that doesn't mean what I'm telling you isn't true." "I liked your son." "I swear on my dead mother's grave, they did it." "You know, I look at you I see a man like me." "A bad man with good intentions." "I believe you." "Mami, tequila." "Anything else?" "Later." "Here's to my son, and finding the motherfucker who killed him." "Tough guy." "See, the problem is" "Excuse me. I really need to talk" "Get the fuck out of here." "doing that to my homeboy, the problem is, I ain't him" "You mean motherfucker." "I don't like it when you pick on the little people." "Oh, man." "Come here." "Oh, man." "Come on." "Oh, God, no." "Thank you." "You busted my hand." "Thanks so much." "Bottle of tequila, keep yourself warm." "Thank you." "My name's J.d." "Sandwich." "Nice to meet you." "Thank you, man." "All right." "Y'all be good." "l know it, man." "Come back and see me sometime." "l will." "Yeah, I think we got him." "I want a 24-hour tail on him from now on." "Simon, I just wanted you to know, for whatever it's worth that I really respect you for how you've handled this whole situation." "You and Max must have been really close." "You know, when time passes on, you kind of get to thinking a little bit." "Seems like every day that goes by you kind of can't get used to the fact that somebody that close to you is gone." "You always think, " Hey, man, I gotta call my son"  or, " l'm going to see him soon."" "And then you kind of remember the unthinkable has actually happened." "Aim." "Fire." "There's really no greater sorrow  than when a man's own child passes before he does." "And I do have regrets, because when he was a child I really didn't spend much time with him." "But when he got older I really kind of feel like I got to make it up." "You could be away from somebody for 1 0 years knock on the door, walk through that door, and it's like you never left." "That's close and that's how he and I were, you know?" "That close." "That's him right there, yo." "Why the fuck does Armand want this nigga dead anyway?" "doesn't matter." "Let's smoke this fool." "We do this and we in." "Bread, bitches and cocaine." "You need to stop that snorting shit." "Man, nigga, fuck you." "Let's smoke this fool." "Don't fuck up my car, hell." "Say good night, motherfucker." "Goddamn, I can't believe you missed." "Back this motherfucker up." "Let's go." "Goddamn, motherfucker." "God, shit." "Motherfucker." "We gotta get out of L.A." "I'm going. lf you didn't have a motherfucking slow-ass hearse" "You keep talking about my car, you gonna catch a bus." "Here." "Look, we here." "Come on." "Get the tyre, something." "Shit." "Fuck!" "Look at your dumb ass missing and shit." "Come on, come on." "All right, I'm gonna get you closer." "Shoot the tyres out." "Drive my motherfucking car." "Just shoot the motherfucking tyres out this time." "Watch me." "Jack it up, bitch!" "Jack it up." "Come on, come on." "Buck again, buck again." "Unload on his ass." "What the fuck?" "Nice driving, motherfucker." "It ain't me." "This motherfucker is all over the road." "How the fuck is it the car's fault?" "How come it ain't you?" "Fuck." "God, where the fuck is he going?" "Just drive my motherfucking car." "Yeah." "I can't see shit." "l see him." "Goddamn." "Fuck." "I swear, if something fall out from under this, it's your ass." "Hang on, hang on." "I'll show you how to smoke this, motherfucker." "Here we go, we got his ass now." "We got him now." "Yeah, right here." "Come on." "Come on." "Shit." "This motherfucker's slippery as hell." "Closer." "All right, I'm gonna get you closer." "Come on." "You got him." "You got him." "Come on up." "What the fuck?" "This motherfucker is crazy as hell." "Ram his ass." "Go!" "What the fuck?" "Oh, shit." "Who sent you?" "Fuck you." "Fuck." "That's the wrong answer." "I'm gonna ask you one more time." "Who sent you?" "Armand, man." "Father lilled." "Brother, Isaiah Morrison." "Mother, Carla Morrison." "Isaiah, mostly misdemeanours, no felonies." "Suspicion of burglary, suspicion of armed robbery suspicion of destruction of property." "Known gang affiliations, East Side Gangsters." "East Side Gangsters, suspected in over 30 lillings in the past year." "Racl eteering, drug running, murder." "Armand Tucl er, no convictions." "Yeah?" "Yeah, Simon Ballister." "Hi." "What do you want?" "Listen, I need that package right away." "All right, where are you?" "It's 1 001 North Central." "L.A. ?" "That's right." "You know, the only part they didn't have in Scarface was him fucking." "Tweedledee and Tweedle-Dumbass, you don't know" "Hold on, man." "Hold on." ""Say hello to my little friend."" "You understand me?" "He'd just hold a gun to the bitch." "Be like, nigga, suck it." "Armand?" "Let y'all snort some cocaine off this motherfucker." "Excuse me, boss?" "Motherfucker!" "Can't you see I'm doing something?" "Excuse me, boss" "Why the fuck you gonna interrupt me?" "Sorry, boss." "You females go on and go upstairs" "Reggie B. and lsaiah" "Nigga, hold the fuck up." "All right, all right." "You ladies go back to the room get it cracking without me, you understand me?" "I'll be in in a minute." "And feel free to try them little things out." "You know what I'm saying?" "I got some toys back there." "Yeah, it's Christmas." "You like that, huh?" "Hell, yeah." "You could have that on the regular if you handle your business." "I'm disappointed in both of y'all." "Especially you, Isaiah." "You hold your bitch ass up right there, partner." "Take that motherfucking rag off around your bitch-ass neck." "You ain't repping shit." "Look at the ground." "Look at the floor." "don't even look at me, nigga." "Boy, I put trust in you." "I put trust in you, boy." "I put trust in you, but you wanna fuck up." "You know I don't ask people for many things, man." "Most of what I accomplish, I accomplish myself." "Everything I accomplish, I accomplish my damn self because I ain't gonna never snitch on me, nigga." "I asked you to do this to prove yourself and you drop the ball, coz." "Yo, man, this Simon" "Silence, nigga." "Look, I know this motherfucker tough." "That's why I gave you this assignment." "It's a chance to prove yourself." "Now, if you prove yourself, we got a thing called trust." "Trust go a long way in this organisation." "You understand me?" "You understand me?" "Yes, sir." "Good, because if you don't do this correctly, partner we ain't friends." "Matter of fact, we enemies." "You, your family, your mama that pregnant bitch you got around the corner, nigga." "Yeah." "You wanna see that child, nigga?" "Because I don't give a fuck about the little motherfucker." "Why don't you do yourself a motherfucking favour and go kill that son of a bitch?" "Keep your head up, coz." "And this time, make sure he lay down and stay there." "They don't make niggas like they used to." "These little motherfuckers running around here, krump dancing and shit." "One motherfucking white boy." "How the fuck my whole motherfucking clique bruised the fuck up?" "What kind of steroids this motherfucker on?" "This is my shit here." "He wanna run his little white ass around here like he renegade." "Matter of fact" " Hey, you bitches, get your ass up out of here."

"I ain't gonna let you." "Can't let you score." "Can't let you score." "Finally got the ball." "You can't guard me." "I'm about to pop that shit right here." "You don't even know when I'm coming, do you?" "do you?" "Patience, baby." "Yo, I quit, man." "You're good, y'all. I'll get out." "I'm tired." "You be playing too much defence." "Play Isaiah." "Bet he won't be doing all that then." "Good game, though." "Good game." "Take care." "Why?" "Check out the guy over here." "Got the Lone Ranger over here." "Shit." "Let's go, guys." "Let's have a little fun." "Let's go." "Take cover." "Run, nigger, run, boy." "Run." "Come on." "Run his fucking ass down." "Come on." "You're going nowhere." "Get him." "Get him." "Shit." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Hey, hey." "Where you going, nigger?" "Alone in the 'hood?" "Maybe me and my boys will give you a little bit of hospitality, huh?" "You ain't going nowhere, man." "He's scared." "We're gonna have fun." "What you got in your bag, huh?" "We're gonna work you over real good." "Were you lost?" "Keep moving, white boy." "You stupid motherfucker." "Didn't you hear me, white boy?" "Got your back, brother." "Who you calling white boy, mother--?" "Hey." "Bad motherfucker." "Gary." "Let's go." "Been an accident at Bellevue." "We need an ambulance." "don't make fun of my ride." "It's a rental." "damn." "Hope you got insurance." "Man, that was some crazy shit." "Where the fuck you learn that shit, man?" "Yo, I bet he never had an ass-whupping like that before." "Shit." "Can I ask you something?" "Anything, man." "Why'd you lie to me about Chivo?" "What you talking about?" "See, I think you're trying to play me." "Look, fool, I ain't never said he did it, man." "I told you what the word on the street was." "Chivo didn't have nothing to do with Max." "What, you asked him or something?" "That's right, I asked him." "He told you he ain't have shit to do with it?" "That's right." "And you knew he wasn't lying?" "That's right." "But I am?" "That's right." "Man, fuck you, man." "I'm leaving, man." "Would you like me to stop the car so you don't land on your head?" "Shit." "How's your brother?" "did he have a little accident last night?" "Man, how the fuck you know about that, man?" "Because I caused the accident, see?" "He tried to ambush me last night." "Brother with the East Side boys?" "is that it?" "Who's Armand Tucker?" "Hey, did your brother kill my son?" "You ain't got nothing to say?" "All right." "You protecting your brother?" "I'm leaving, man." "Hey, Gary." "My backpack, man." "Good rocks, it's gonna cost you." "Yo." "Hey, Isaiah."
