all right?

"Just by eye." You and him

never had any static?

No.

So there's no way

Victor could've been

cuttin' through

the parking lot in the dark,

and Darryl would've

mistaken him for you,

like, "There goes

the motherf***er, Strike."

No, man.

'Cause you and your

brother in the dark,

you guys probably look

like two peas in a pod.

What the f***

you tryin' to say?

All black people look alike

at nighttime or something?

I can't even tell you

guys apart in the day.

You got jokes.

Anyways, you and

your brother close'?

No. Not really.

I forgot. Long-lost brothers.

When was the last time?

A month.

Strike, you told me

two months before.

If you know so much, then

why you keep asking me?

You know what Alzheimer's is?

Some kind of beer?

Wise guy. You visit him yet?

Yeah.

He's claimin' self-defense.

He goes to trial with that,

those two nice kids of his,

by the time he'll be gettin'

out, they'll be goin' in.

Did it ever occur to you maybe

he didn't even do the sh*t?

You know who did?

Who did it?

Come on, man,

I gotta go. I'm sick.

Here's my card.

Got two already.

You better have

that checked out.

What the f***

y'all lookin' at?

MANI Oh, sh*t!

You all right, man?

Strike! Strike! You smokin' crack,

motherf***er, huh? Get the f*** up!

Get an ambulance, man!

Let's get an ambulance!

Let's get him

the hell outta here.

He'll be all right.

Watch it, guys.

One, two, three. Let's go!

Here you go.

It's all right, man.

Hit that pipe

today, pal?

Dice that sh*t.

He don't use.

Anyone ever tell you not to do drugs?

Where do you live?

I'll give you all that.

Just get him to the hospital.

Welcome to Ahab's. May

I take your order, please?

Yes. We need

a Double Whaler on a bun.

One Double Whaler

on a bun. With cheese?

Yes, with cheese.

A Fried Shrimp Boat.

One Fried Shrimp Boat.

Two Fried Shrimp Boats.

Two Fried Shrimp...

Could I please get my Captain

Ahab with a clam roll?

Captain Ahab, Captain...

What's up, boys?

It's a nice car you got.

Yeah, it's my dad's car.

How ya doin'?

Power windows,

air bags, cellular phone.

Bet he paid

a pretty penny for this.

Oh, yeah. We were lookin'

for the Short Hills Mall.

It's not here.

No?

No. What, did you come down from

Connecticut just to buy some whiting?

Some golf balls.

You buy anything else around

here that I should know about?

Some gum.

No.

You like soul food?

Can't say I do.

You like to

wear lipstick?

Todd, why don't

we get outta here?

McCauley does in

the back, occasionally.

You like skirts?

Something

we did wrong?

You ever suck

a black man's dick?

Jesus, Todd,

let's get outta here!

A big, 16-inch tar baby?

No?

No.

If I toss this car and I find any

drugs, I got 12 baboons in a cage,

who are gonna be callin' you

boys Mary all night long.

We don't have any.

Shut up, man!

Who's got the drugs?

Give it up now.

We don't have anything.

You got five

seconds, boys.

Todd's got the drugs!

Shut up, man!

Shut the f*** up.

F*** you guys, man!

Put your hands

on the car.

Take it easy!

F***ing cocksucker!

F***ing touch him again, I'll rip

your throat out, motherf***er.

Get your hands up.

What's up?

You tell me.

What you up to, man?

You the one involved

in all the drama out here.

What you saying, man?

How you always know when I'm

comin' out of somewhere?

Don't you know

I know everything?

Didn't I tell you

to go see my doctor?

Didn't I tell you to stop

drinkin' that Moo sh*t? Didn't I?

Yeah, you did, you did.

No doubt, man, no doubt.

Strike, how you so

smart and so stupid?

Cut me some slack.

I heard that Homicide came

back on you again yesterday.

He ain't sayin' I'm in.

He's just fishin', that's all.

You and him f***

buddies now, or what?

You got jokes, man.

Come on,

get in, get in.

How do you feel?

I'm all right.

You better be, 'cause we got

another big order come in.

Word.

Hey, Rodney.

if God created anything

better than crack cocaine,

he kept that

sh*t for hisself.

That sh*t is

like truth serum.

It will truly

expose who you are.

I mean, you happen to be a

low-life rat bastard motherf***er,

who will sell off his newborn

for a suck off that glass dick,

crack will bring it

right on in the light.

I don't care you black,

white, Chinese, rich, poor.

You take that first hit,

you on a mission.

And that mission

will never end.

Even when the house, the

money, loved ones are gone,

they send you to the joint,

you still gonna try to cop.

No doubt.

Only time it ends, Strike, that

mission, when you six feet under.

That's the reason

why I don't ever want

to hear about you

using this sh*t.

You understand me?

No. You crazy?

All right, then.

'Cause it's

also the reason why

I ain't never

goin' outta business.

I'm a great businessman,

Strike.

And I got me

the world's greatest product.

Now you think about that.

Yo, what's up with her?

I'm gonna see you at

the store, all right.

Go ahead.

All right.

You believe I used

to deal with that

woman when she

looked like somethin'?

Mmm.

Yeah. You didn't

know that, did you?

She used to look good,

right?

She looked better

than she look now.

Finest sh*t we got today.

Let me see.

Yeah.

$50.

Mmm-hmm.

But ain't y'all pregnant,

though?

You got to

maintain that, man.

We already know that.

That's the last I'm

gonna sell to y'all,

'cause y'all got to take

care of that, for real.

Got red caps?

I'm getting tired of

these nickels, man.

Where the dimes at, Lou?

We don't

got it like that.

Come on,

let's do this.

You got it?

I got reds and I got yellows.

What you need?

Two yellow ones.

Two yellows?

I want two reds!

All right, Veronica. Slow down, girl.

Why you in such a hurry?

Because I wanna

get out of here.

Wanna get outta here?

Let me see this money.

No, I said two.

Let me see

the money. Chill.

I want yellow,

not her.

You want yellows?

She wants yellows

and I want two reds.

It's the same sh*t. Both of 'em

just to crack your ass up.

I want three of 'em.

And I said two.

You notice the tablecloths out

there with the African prints?

The nice carpeting and the plants

hanging from the ceilings?

It's all Victor's ideas.

You see, Victor

always wanted to make

this place like

somebody's home.

He treated

everybody with respect.

The workers, the customers,

even the clockers.

Like, okay, you asked me

about last Friday night.

We got three cocolo

chocho face maricones

trying to set up shop out there,

right in front of my business.

I reach for my trusty Roberto

Clemente Louisville Slugger here,

and I'm ready to bash in a head,

I'm ready to bash in an arm.

But Victor, he says...

No, Jesus, no. Let me

handle them, please.

We set somebody up

in the bathroom over there.

Put somebody there

as a lookout in the window.

Sorry, but you brothers

can't clock in here.

This is a family place, and

I need you to respect that.

Here. Take

these jumbo sodas.

This is a Pepsi.
