And for me keeping her in a cage,

she got killed. You know?

But Miss Bleeks was the best, man,

you know?

Not the best, but close to it.

'Cause Roger was.

Come on. Come on.

Don't start your sh*t.

Hey, come here.

What'd I tell you about that, huh?

I told you about your bullshit. Get

the f*** over there. You can wait.

Get over there.

You can wait today.

A**hole.

Come here, Bugs.

Go eat. Go eat.

Come here, Fatty. Come here.

Come here.

Come here.

I had some problems with a fella.

And he threatened

to burn my house down.

But I didn't believe him.

But to think that somebody

would actually burn down my hut...

and hoping that I was in it, you know?

Hey. She got burnt out, man.

What-

What the f*** can I say?

She got burnt out. She did somebody

wrong, and they set her ass on fire.

Which I do feel bad.

I do feel bad.

And it's not funny, 'cause

that could happen to anybody.

That can happen to anybody.

That's one of the things you got

to go through living in the street.

You know what I'm sayin'?

Could be it's that way.

You on your own down here, man.

You on your own.

But you can't run to the police,

'cause the police gonna tell you,

"Get the f*** outta here".

You know what I'm sayin'?

They ain't gonna be-

They're listening- They don't listen,

man. You know what I'm sayin'?

Plus what police gonna come all the way

down here in this motherfuckin' tunnel...

just to investigate

a goddamn fire?

You ain't

no motherfuckin' taxpayer.

I feel sorry for Dee though, man.

Because, like-

Dee did a little building down there,

but she'll get it again.

Just like she got that- I don't think

she paid for nothin', bought nothin'.

And whatever she lost,

she'll find it.

She'll get something else.

I walked around for a little while, then-

after cryin' and... hurt-

I went to Ralphie.

And I asked Ralphie if I could

stay at his house for a few days...

until I could, you know,

find some more wood and stuff

to build another hut for myself.

You gonna put eggs in there too?

Sure.

Man. Eggs, mustard.

That's what makes it

taste so good.

Don't stretch your luck now.

You've been okay today.

I haven't been bustin' your ass today.

Get over here. Over here.

Stretch it here. Get here.

That's cool.

I gotta feed the dog.

The dog's already fed.

His food's prepared. -You fed him?

All you gotta do is put it in a bowl.

You gotta make some

collard greens someday, man.

It ain't nothin'

but just roll them up, cut 'em.

That ain't all to it.

You gotta clean them suckers.

- Yeah, you gotta clean 'em a little.

- Clean them from the little bugs,

you know, that they collect.

Yeah. -Yeah, I know

how to do that.

I clean 'em and then- and then-

and then I roll them up...

and I cut 'em, like, in little slices.

- Oh, yeah.

- And- And then-

That's cold water.

I know. Cold water's no good

to wash that.

Well, thanks a lot.

I told you I-

I just take the spaghetti and put

the top on it and just go like this.

Simple, man.

Instead of goin' through all that.

Yeah, well, like, you cook

different from I do.

I- I- You know.

- I mean, we're homeless people, man.

- Yeah, but we homeless people-

But if you know how to cook,

cook right.

Come outta there, oil.

Come on outta there.

There you go.

Olive oil. Goddamn right.

No, no, no. It's not that, Dee.

Dee, it's not that.

Then what is it?

If you're gonna come and you're

gonna drink out the f***in' cup, right,

and then you're gonna

lay the cup there...

and then you're gonna go out

and then the cup is gonna

be there dirty all goddamn-

for two days,

then I'm gonna throw it out.

I bet you didn't do that

to your wife, did you?

No, I didn't do it to her, 'cause

she would've kicked my ass.

Yeah, she would've

kicked that ass, boy.

But- But- But I have to do it now

because in the situation that we live.

If you leave- If you leave

sh*t on the floor, what happens?

What will happen?

I bet you didn't do that sh*t

to your wife.

But we didn't have rats

like we have here.

Yeah, but still in all, you didn't

do that sh*t to your wife.

We don't have rats like we have-

She'd have kicked your ass

all over that damn place.

- What type cup was it?

- She's a funny girl.

It was, uh, a cup-

It was a large cup.

It was one of them large cups.

You know what I'm sayin'?

That my friend brought back from

a country where he went to

on his vacation.

What country? -And it was

kinda shaped like a mermaid.

You know?

Just the top like this here.

- That sh*t was from McDonald's, man.

- It wasn't no damn McDonald's.

- That sh*t was from McDonald's.

- It was not no McDonald's.

McDonald's don't even have cups like

that. -I know. You got the last one.

No. Right, yeah.

I didn't get no last one.

They don't even have cups like-

And it had "Pepsi" on the side.

- 'Cause I got the top to it, you know?

- It's still a McDonald's cup.

It's got the straw to it and got the cap

to the straw. McDonald's don't carry-

Whoever gave her the cup went to

McDonald's, got the cup, wrapped it up...

and said, "Hey, baby, here.

I got this up in Spain" or some sh*t.

My friend don't do no sh*t like that.

- My friend don't do no sh*t like that.

- I don't know.

All I know is that if there's

dirty stuff here and it's not cleaned-

- Goddamn.

- So where you hide all that sh*t at?

Keep it in my food bucket.

I got a couple food buckets

over next to me.

- Keep it in your food bucket?

- Yeah. In the food bucket.

So where you

put your pots and sh*t at?

Where you see 'em at.

My man. My man.

I mean,

I understand the situation,

but check it out, my brother.

Sh*t ain't that

motherfuckin' rough, man.

It can get better.

I know you survivin',

and I respect that to the fullest.

With all these big motherfuckin'

horses you got runnin' around here,

you leave your sh*t right there?

Yeah. I wash my sh*t.

What's wrong with that?

You talkin' bad on me. -You mean you

got room in this motherf***er for a sink?

Well, you build me one then.

And the rats-

How the rats gonna come

when a dog is here?

They were comin'

through that hole, man.

- Did they- Did they come in?

- F***in' right they came in.

- Where was the dog?

- The dog was outside.

Yeah, the dog was outside. The dog let

the rats come in. -That's what I'm sayin'.

Hey, listen. If the dog is outside,

the rats is in here,

how the hell the dog is gonna-

Why you think the dog

when he ruffin' out there like that?

To keep 'em from comin' in here.

He's woofin' that way, and

they're comin' in through this way.

- The dog is woofin' over there.

- I ain't seen no rat up in here.

Hey, put it this way.

You lost a cup.

See, for me, I'm a damn fool.

I sit here and battle

with the motherfuckers

like I was a a**hole

last night and sh*t, man.

Them motherfuckers

wore me out last night, man.

I mean, I'm thinkin' I'm gettin' this one,

and sh*t, another one's zooming by.

Shoop! Know what I'm sayin'?

They all tried to get inside of here.
