- Whatever man.

- Ain't no f***ing whatever.

You ain't me motherf***er!

I know.

Hey baby..

I see you lookin'

at me, what's up?

I love you.

You love everybody you f***?

You ain't everybody.

Hold on, come back in

here and suck my dick.

No.

No?!

What do you mean no?

Didn't you just tell

me that you love me?

You're being an animal about it.

I am an animal. That's really the f***ing aim.

Isn't that the best f***in' way to do it?!

F*** you.

Hey listen I can f***ing make you get on

your knees and suck my dick right now.

I'm at least asking you.

Go f*** yourself.

Hey come..

Hey come.. Come back here, I just

wanna tell you I'm sorry. I'm..

You f***ing whore!

Piece of sh*t..

Bunch of lazy f***ing bastards!

I'm the one who's out on

the street, doing all the work.

Taking all the risk,

with all the responsibility.

I can't show my goddamn face,

without someone taking a shot at it.

We're gonna get thrown out on the

street, do you understand that?!

We got no f***ing food

and no f***ing drugs.

For what?!

I had a career..

I had a real f***ing life, until

I hooked up with you losers.

Let me tell you something right now, things are

gonna change around here, you understand that?

Hey..

You don't know what the

hell are you talking about! Ok?!

Mom's the one getting the

cheque every month.

You sh*t!

Chas!

That's it!

I said to you! Don't you

f***ing lay a hand on him!

It was like a tap,

he's f***ing faking it.

- I told you!

- He's faking it.

- He's a f***ing faker!

- Get away from us!

Get away from us!

Monster!

Are you ok?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry he hit you,

I'm sorry..

Hey..

Come on..

- We got one poke left.

- I don't want it.

- Take a poke left, you'll feel better.

- I don't want it.

Come on, you know you want it.

Come on.

Come on baby.

It's alright honey.

I know it hurts worse than it is.

It ain't broke or nothin'.

If you ever f***ing touch

him again, I will kill you!

Come on babe,

don't threaten me.

Hey, you know..

Listen to me.

Hey.. Easy..

Easy.

Look we're a family, we're just going

through some hard times, that's all.

I'm sorry, I just lost it for a second,

but you know how I get.

I don't wanna

go on without you.

You promise you will

never hit him again?

I promise you

I'll never touch him.

Say you're sorry.

Hey pal, I'm sorry.

He said he's sorry.

Listen, do me a favor Willy.

Could you take your sister

out in the hall for a second?!

I just need to talk to mommy.

Thanks.

Draw pictures on my back.

Hey.

Hello.

Mmm..

That was so amazing.

Do you hear that?

What?

It's too quiet.

I'm gonna go check on him.

How you doin' Manny?

Pretty good.

Same sh*t, different day.

Let me get a couple

of coffees to go, please.

How's your kid doin'?

He's doing really good.

Glad to hear it.

Heard some news I'm not

so glad to hear, though.

Yeah?!

What happened?

I hear Ravi has you

guys packing back there.

Packing?

You know what I'm talking about.

Who told you that?

I heard it.

Well..

You know Ravi..

Maybe he spread the word, so people

don't come in and rob the place.

I can't have everybody packing Manny.

Everybody's packing anyway.

The last guy,

if his gun didn't jam up..

you and I wouldn't be

having this conversation.

Period.

You know what I mean?!

My wife and kid are left alone,

with nothing, that's..

that's not happening.

That's not happening captain. It's not.

Have a good night.

C'mon, what the f***

are you doing in there?

What?

You look beautiful.

Ahm.. M-m.. No..

C'mon, I look like a f***ing terrorist

with this thing on my head.

Well you'll just have to get over it.

Put your finger there.

I can't have you going at

my party, looking all busted.

Perfect.

I just put this make-up on,

I'm dusted.

C'mon.. Give me half

the doze, so we can go.

I look like a gay pirate.

Just saying.

You know I'm just so

sick of Ceasar, you know.

Beating me and sh*t.

But I've known men like you, you wouldn't

do that. You don't do that. Thank you baby.

What are you doing in here?

Just chillin'..

F***ing loud out there.

Hello Fay.

Hey Marybeth.

Edgar is such a delight.

Yes.

He's cute, huh?

Gabrielle, this is..

Fay.

Hi Fay.

Hey.

So what's up man?! What're we gonna

do if this dude don't even come man?

He'll come.

He'll come.

Okay.

Which one'll be Pepperton?

He's that n*gger on the right.

Who' the beret?

I don't know..

And I don't care.

Wait here.

Come on man!

Come on man!

What're you doing?

- You got shot?

- Who?!

- What do you mean who got shot?!

- C'mon man help me..

Oh sh*t man..

Yo.. Woa, woa, woa!

Yo my cuz got shot!

Oh damn!

F***! Sh*t!

- Man!

- Get outta way! Get outta way!

Yo what happened?

Pepperton had a f***ing

shadow following him.

Well did he see you?

Yo! Yo! Turn on the news!

Turn on the news!

Man ain't gonna be on the f***ing news,

this sh*t happened f***ing five seconds, ok?!

It's always on the news

when it just happened.

I know, you're right.

Turn that sh*t on!

You guys, this looks bad.

He needs a doctor.

Stacy, come on now, I ain't going to

no goddamn doctor, don't be stupid!

So give me a f***ing blowj*b

and shut the f*** up!

Yo where' that crack at, man?

Let's get out of here.

Leave that.. for tomorrow.

Yeah.

Sugar help me put

miss Gabrielle in bed.

We ain't gonna get a

cab out here this late.

Let's walk.

Uh.. No..

I don't wanna get shot at tonight.

Come on, I was f***ing

trying to protect you.

If you wanted to protect me, you

should've gotten me a bullet-proof west.

Don't be a b*tch.

I'm taking the bus.

That doesn't matter..

He shouldn't've been

fooling around with Dooley.

If you go to a party and your dick passes out,

you got the right to do whatever you want.

That's crude Benjamin.

Not that I should be surprised,

considering the source.

You always take the man side.

Yeah.

'Cause I'm a man.

Look..

if Ridley wanted Edgar so bad..

he shouldn't have got so f***ed up..

Her name is Gabrielle.

You really need to get into

the habit of calling her that.

Yeah, well it's gonna be a hard

habit to get into, being the fact

that he still looks like a dude,

even though he's got tits now.

That's not the point!

She's our friend,

she needs our support.

You called him Ridley..

a minute ago yourself, so..

Shut up!

It was a mistake.

You think Edgar

f***ed Dooley tonight?

You're being crude again.

Uhm, I'm just..

curious..

Does Edgar ever f***?

Edgar ever f*** you,

or you just suck his cock?

What has gotten

into you tonight, huh?

Why are you acting this way?

What way?

Like an a**hole.

Don't call me an a**hole.

Well you're acting like one.

Oh why.. You think you're

all f***ing high and mighty?!

You think your f***ing

sh*t don't stink?!

I asked you a simple question,

I want a simple, f***ing answer!

Did you ever f*** Edgar?

If you don't know the answer

to that, I'm not telling you.

So you did?!

You shoved his wrinkled old f***ing
