"I remember when he first came here, to the Shacks." "He had a lot of money." " You gave him as much beer as he wanted." " He came to forget." "Yes, and when he fell down in the street, sick from the beer you sold him..." "I found him, not you." "Brother..." "Who took care of you, when you were lying there in the street?" "Who cleaned you up, when you couldn't even remember your name?" "Who picked you up then brother?" "Me or her?" "Help him come to my house." "Why did you bring me here?" "You're a teacher right?"

"They haven't finished." "Are you stupid?" " Hey man, look what you've done." " It wasn't me man!" "Look in his hands." " What were you doing?" " I didn't see him." "What are you doing?" "You can't drive." " Open the gate!" " Get in!" " What have you done?" " He was a trash!" " He's dead, he's dead!" " Yes he is!" "He always wanted to kill!" "You never stopped him before!" "Okay, let's do it." "Buddy, if you learned to drive, I'd give you more." "Move!" "Let's go." "Come on, brother." "You want to stay with Fela?" "When is my turn?" " For what?" " You hit Boston, really hard." "Now Butcher..." "When is my turn?" "You're right." "We are finished." "It's over." "Like Butcher." "Finished and done." " Who is it?" " It's me." "What happened?"

"They say his mother may never walk again." "You can't give her legs back." "But you must give her son back." " What is this?" " Milk." " For mothers witout milk." " You put it in here right?" "But it won't make you his mother." "Please, give him to me." "I'll take him back for you." "If I take him back... can I still come here?" "I'm sorry, my brother." "Yes, I told you, Western Section." "Just after the cap." "I see you." " Where is he?" " That shack, with the small window." "Watch the car." " Where's the baby?" " What baby?" " Get the gun." " Speak, fast!" " I don't know anything." " Don't bullshit us." " No... no... stop!" "It's not him!" " What are you saying ma'am?" " Talk Boston!" "Where did he go?" " I don't know!" "Take it easy Zuma." " Tell me the truth, I'm not stupid." " I'm not lying." "It's true man!" "You!" "What do you want?" "Take it." " lf you need anything, help yourself." " Thank you, I'm fine." "Thanks."
