City of Men Page #4

You're his cousin.

Okay, grandma, calm down.

- Calm down?

- I found my dad.

Cris, I can't care

for Clayton alone.

Look after yourself, Wallace.

He's your son,

you can't leave him.

You're the one

who's leaving him!

Cris, don't do this to me!

Please!

- Cris left me, man.

- I can't stay in the hill.

She left me with Clayton.

- Where are you sleeping tonight?

- The guardhouse. Want to come?

No, that's okay.

See you.

You can sleep at your father's.

I'll see...

- See you later.

- See you.

Go, go. Stay alert.

Careful there, Midnight.

F***!

It's Fasto's guys!

Head for the tunnel!

- Run, Midnight! Run, it's Fasto!

- Midnight, it's Fasto.

Stop the car!

Stop the f***ing car!

Let's go!

F***!

Keep your cool, Midnight!

Let's go, quick!

Come on! I'll take you on!

Motherfuckers!

Stop, you f***ing a**hole!

Get the f*** out!

Get out, f***er!

I'm gonna kill you!

I'm gonna f***ing kill you!

Get out!

Out of the car!

I'm gonna kill you!

Freeze! Stay there, f***er!

I'm the boss here!

Let's go! Get in!

Get in the car!

I'm gonna f***ing kill you!

Let's get outta here!

Step on it! Go!

F*** you all!

The hill is mine!

Please protect our homes, Jesus.

BALD HILL:

- Hey, Midnight.

- Hey, bro.

Appreciate your help, man.

When we take back our hill,

we'll repay you.

- Was it Fasto?

- Yes.

I told you so many times.

Right is right, wrong is wrong.

I finally gave up.

Bebezo!

Get rid of that car, for chrissake!

I told you, bro,

that guy's a f***ing Judas!

One thing I f***ing hate,

Midnight, is a Judas.

If anyone here is a Judas,

he's dead!

Pisses me off.

Relax, bro.

We can chill at the party later.

Help these guys here!

They're messed up.

When we get more guns,

we'll take the hill back.

- I told you to kill the motherf***er.

- Thanks, bro, really.

F***, if I ever catch that guy...

Good morning, sir.

You were late again.

The place was unattended.

- There was a gang war on the hill.

- That's your problem, not mine.

It was a real war,

you probably saw it on TV.

You're fired.

Go collect your pay.

But sir...

- They're out to kill you.

- Me?

Fasto came for you.

Look what they did.

I swore you wouldn't

be back here.

I was working.

They think you're with Midnight.

I didn't even know...

Where is he?

Out the back...

Get him!

Your doorbell's busted.

Where's your friend?

- Who, Ace?

- Yeah.

I don't know.

We parted ways.

You know how to fix that?

Electricity? No...

I don't either.

May I use your bathroom?

At the end of the hall.

Excuse me...

- Hear about the war on the hill?

- I heard on the radio.

Things got ugly. My cousin,

Midnight, was the boss up there.

The other guys

took back the hill.

Our whole family had to split.

- Sheila's kid?

- What?

Sheila, your aunt.

Your mother only

had one sister, right?

You knew my aunt?

I went out with her.

You went out

with my mother's sister?

So? You mean you never

went out with two sisters?

Not at the same time,

one after the other.

Is she still pretty?

I see.

You hungry?

Have one...

Who took your cousin's place?

A guy named Fasto.

He was with Midnight,

but joined another gang.

He's a f***ing traitor.

Traitor?

A f***ing traitor.

But he won't last long.

Traitors die young.

Some get away.

Well, I'm going...

Okay.

Can I stay here?

Afraid not, kid.

I have other people living here.

There's no room.

Just one night, man.

Then the girl jumped on me

and began kissing me...

I totally didn't expect it!

She tore off my clothes.

I thought,

"Wow, this is my lucky day!"

Keep quiet, kid.

Get back there.

- Who is it?

- Me, Ace.

Hey, Ace!

- This isn't a hotel, kid.

- Can I talk to him?

Make it quick,

I don't want that guy in here.

Okay.

- What's up?

- Hey, how are you?

Not great, man,

I got nowhere to sleep.

You're not working tonight?

I lost my job.

Can I sleep here?

That's bad news.

What about Nestor's place?

- Can't go there.

- What's going on, Wallace?

- Why not?

- Because I can't.

- But why not?

- I can't, man.

You want to talk,

go somewhere else, Wallace.

Try Caju's place, man.

You staying or going with him?

Hey, Ace...

What are you doing over here?

You miss us already, Ace?

- I'm homeless, man.

- You're what?

- Crash with us up on the slab.

- Come on...

Thanks.

Ace!

What's up, man?

Come on up!

It was awful.

They trashed Cris' father's store.

The worst part is,

I don't even know what I did.

Listen, man...

Don't worry,

you know everyone here.

Stay with us on Bald Hill.

We'll help you anyway we can.

No, thanks.

Here are some sheets

and a change of clothes.

- Thanks.

- Sure.

- Good night.

- Good night.

Take your smlle out of my way

Let me qo by with my paln

If I'm a thorn to you today

Thorns can't hurt flowers

I made a mlstake

Weddlnq my soul to yours

The sun cannot llve

Alonqslde the moon

What the hell?

What are you doing, kid?

- Trying to fix it.

- But you don't know how.

- Sh*t!

- Turn that thing off.

- Sorry, man.

- Trying to burn the building down, kid?

Who is this boy?

Don't tell me it's your nephew.

That's what old fags say.

I'm not his nephew!

Not an electrician either.

Look what you've done.

It's a mess.

- You're not ready?

- I'll get dressed.

We're late.

Wait for me downstairs.

- Eat something, Ace.

- No, you eat...

Don't worry about me,

I've already eaten. Go on...

Okay, thanks.

How about going

through the woods?

Let's think about it. We have to

come up with a good plan.

Hey, Ace!

You here too, buddy?

Just for a while, okay?

- Sure. We'll talk later, okay?

- Okay.

Okay, everyone?

- Okay, boss!

- Keep it up!

Awesome party here

on Friday, Caju...

with lots of hot chicks,

right guys?

- You going, Ace?

- Not me.

Such a p*ssy!

Have some fun. Funk music...

Show him, shorty.

Show him how it's done!

C'mon, Ace,

let's have some fun!

- You call that dancing?

- How is it then?

Okay! Okay!

What the hell was that, Caju?

Ace, let's party!

Look at you, girls think

I don't feel like dancing.
