take off your socks,

'cause Ginnie's mom's

not gonna want you

bringing the street

into the house.

Wait, but you have on heels.

I'm a lot cleaner than you.

Follow me.

Here's the drug dealer.

Everybody say,

"Hello, drug dealer. "

Hello, drug dealer.

What's up?

Donnie's not here, right?

- Why?

You scared?

Nah, just...

Yo, you got my shoes?

No.

Donnie took them.

F***.

- Anyway, we need 100.

Money's on the table.

- All right, I got two 50s,

but...

Whatever.

So what you been up to?

- I'm good.

You?

I'm all right.

That was fast.

I called you, like,

two seconds ago.

You're not stalking me

or anything, are you?

- What?

No.

I was just doing some deliveries

in the neighborhood.

Was it on Bethune?

Was it that a**hole Benny

on Bethune?

Um, I don't know.

I think-

I think it was on-

If Benny shows up tonight,

I'm not talking to him,

no matter what.

You're not either.

No, not a word.

Is Benny the blond one?

No, no, no.

That's Aaron Childs.

- That's your blondie.

- Yup.

That's your boy,

which, I can't believe

that you like him.

- It's just that we've known him

way too long.

He's not that bad.

He's a monster.

- Hey, don't offer him

any product.

- Aaron, like, called me out

on it all of a sudden.

- I mean, of course,

have some.

Here.

- No, I'm all right.

I'm all right.

I was just joking.

Don't be that way.

Here.

- Nah, really,

I'm-I'm really cool.

I'm good.

You're really cool?

He's really cool.

- That's not what I meant.

That's not what I meant.

Yo, did I tell you

that I'm gonna bomb

the Shea Stadium apple?

- I think it's called

Citi Field.

What's the apple?

- Oh, it's like,

when the Mets hit a home run,

it's, like, this big, goofy,

like, plastic apple

that comes up; it's crazy.

- And you're gonna draw graffiti

on it?

Yeah.

That's so stupid.

That's f***ing retarded.

No, it's not.

I'm a Yankees fan, so...

My dad's a Yankees fan.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

Good-bye, drug dealer.

It's Malcolm.

Excuse me.

Girls,

say good-bye to Malcolm.

- Bye, Malcolm.

- Good-bye, Malcolm.

- Yo, whatever, man.

Whatever.

- "Whatever"?

We love you.

Girls, say, "We love you"

to Malcolm.

We love you, Malcolm!

Oh, well.

We should bring him

to Betty's party.

That would be a riot.

- And, like, I wanted

to feel sympathetic,

except, the whole time, he was,

like, complaining about...

- So you get the necklace

or what?

- You know

I take care of my sh*t.

Let's rob this b*tch.

Oh, sh*t.

Nigga, where you going?

Why you mad?

Now that I think about it,

you was gone only two minutes.

Still ain't get

your sneakers back, mm-mm-mm.

- I don't know, but he needs

to get the f*** out here.

Believe this sh*t, man?

These f***ers ain't got

no vanilla Dutches, man.

They call this sh*t

a cigar shop?

Come on.

We gonna go to this newsstand.

- What you think?

You didn't tell me-

Like, you didn't give me

an answer yet.

- No, but I think-

I like what I hear, man.

Sofia, you follow that b*tch.

Once she leaves her spot,

keep a eye out.

Let us know

when she's comin' back.

Me and Malcolm sneak in.

I pick that lock, easy-easy.

Champion saves

the motherfuckin' day.

- "Champion saves

the motherfuckin' day"?

Nigga, don't forget

this is me and Malcolm's deal.

- What the f***?

Y'all jewel thieves now?

Maybe.

- So what the f***

F***ing crazy-ass nigga.

- Hold up.

Let me get a Dutch.

You got vanilla Dutch?

- No Dutch.

Come on, let me explain

something to you, man, a'ight?

Y'all get locked up?

Five years probation.

Y'all coming home the next day.

No need to worry.

Me, I get locked up?

Three-time predicate-

I'm going down.

So if I'm gonna rob

a rich white b*tch,

believe me, I'm gonna take

my proper cut.

F*** it.

We'll give you 50%,

but that's it.

- That's what I'm talking.

That's what I'm talking.

I like that.

- Nah, you can charge that

to the game, b*tch.

Just don't f*** it up.

Champion never fucks up.

I don't understand, like,

why we don't just

What's wrong with you, man?

You stupid or something?

Relax.

Calm down.

- Well, turn on the f***ing AO.

Well, turn on the radio.
