(skateboard rolling)

(melancholy music)

(loud rumbling)

[Woman] You're on my block

b*tch.

How much?

Depends, what do you want?

Oh I want everything.

[Female] Everything huh?

Everything.

How long?

Until I'm done.

Five minutes of everything?

How about an hour?

Deal, get in.

Show me the money first.

Good?

(engine revs)

Oooh

Oooh

Is it like when

Your friends tell you

You've had enough

They take you aside

All gray and serious

And oh at the time

You swear they are wrong

How can you keep drowning

With nothing to drown on

But you wake up the next day

And the sun is too bright

And your skull is too small

And you know they were right

How does it feel

To have enough

Is it this loud

Or this loud

Should I keep turning it on

'Til your ears

start to bleed

'Til the neighbors complain

'Til I get what I need

'Til you're screaming

my name

Ooh

Yeah, I do feel like

we're disconnected.

Of course you do.

You want this lifestyle but

that means I have to work.

And when I finally get a chance

to relax

a little bit and

blow off some steam

there seems to be

a problem with that.

Okay, hold on a little.

One at a time please.

I feel like an object and

he only wants me for sex.

Come on.

Okay.

Hold on.

How does that

make you feel Kevin?

Like sh*t, actually.

But how can she

even say that when

we never even have sex?

Okay, I understand.

There are a lot of feelings

in this room right now.

But remember what I always say.

Feelings are never

right or wrong,

they just are.

Whatever.

And see, that's exactly

what I'm talking about.

This is just unreal.

It's often difficult to

connect sexually

when you're not emotionally

and spiritually connected.

Exactly.

You know, have you ever

thought about

doing more than this?

Group therapy, support groups,

12 step programs?

No, not really.

Kevin.

I think we need to.

Well let me give you some

ideas that I

think will really help you guys.

Here, look these over and try

to find ways

that you can connect

and build your

connection and commitment.

Thank you so much.

Thanks.

(slow paced music)

You'll pay for what you did.

What are you talking about?

You weren't that hard

to find bro.

Oh.

I remember you.

You're the f***er who

cheated on his wife

with a bunch of low-life

bar skanks.

That was none

of your business!

Your wife seemed to

think it was some of hers.

F*** you!

Well guess what?

Now it's time to f***ing pay.

You sure about this?

Am I sure?

(laughter)

You're out numbered.

That's your point of view.

F*** that bro,

this f***ing guy.

This is gonna be fun.

(slow paced music)

(loud grunt)

Shot from the hip

And I'm surrounded by tricks

And all these loose lips

Better stay away

from my ship

You might have what I like

No no I can't deny that

But tell me,

how do you stand straight

With all them knives

in your back

You're not so tough now are you?

Now it's self-defense.

Oh no no

(loud grunts)

I got nothing but time

You know know know

what I mean

Oh no no

Babe, I'm gonna get mine

And don't you ever

try to take it from me

Yeah

Do I have what it takes

Do I have

substance and taste

Am I just another beat

With a bass that makes your

hips shake

I know that you'll

be leaving

Those eyes have

been deceiving me

Since I made you

believe that

I believe what you believe

You should leave.

Nothing but time

You know know know

what I mean

Oh no no

Babe, I'm gonna get mine

And don't you ever

try to take it from me

Was it worth it?

You destroyed my marriage!

I did?

You did this to yourself.

Now are we done here?

I got sh*t to do.

For me?

Yes.

Devon, I need somebody

who can get the job done.

What do we got here?

He's a repeat offender

and I want his head

on a platter.

Hmm.

We have to get this

handled Devon.

We are getting hammered by the

news media.

Depending he's

guilty of course.

I mean I see your point

on the killings.

But I also see he has a lot

of merits and a long career.

Crenshaw investigated

him last time

and he got nasty.

I want him off the streets!

He's a loose cannon.

I hear ya chief.

Good.

(loud clanking)

Ray!

You scared...

What's today?

What's today?

Friday.

And when are you

supposed to pay?

Thursday.

Now remind me.

Does Friday come

before Thursday?

Are we early?

I don't think we're early.

I am...

(loud thud)

Our boss must be nice.

He's giving you a reminder.

An extension for just 10% more.

(loud thud)

(suspenseful music)

Please, I have a family...

(loud thud)

Monday.

Add 10%, get it?

[Ray] Yes.

You can't be this nice

if we have to come back.

(loud cracking)

(loud gunshot)

(fast paced music)

(loud gunshots)

You take the right side.

I'll take the left,

we'll cut him off at the end.

Right.

(fast paced music)

Freeze!

Sh*t!

Drop it!

Don't shoot.

(loud knocking)

Come on in.

Have a seat ma'am.

Mrs. Prescott, from what

you told me on the phone,

I think we have a pretty good

idea what you're looking for,

but refresh my memory.

I believe my husband is

cheating on me.

What makes you say that?

My god, where do I start?

He comes home late, he's

on his phone constantly,

he's moody.

I can just tell okay.

And you're looking for proof?

I just can't stand

not knowing.

I understand.

I will need contact

information for him, you,

and I'll need addresses,

home, work, I'll need...

Here.

That should give you all the

information that you need.

And here.

That's 5,000 for the week.

You get the other half

at the end of the week

when I get the results.

I would like your full attention

on this.

You got it.

So are we all set?

Yeah, how do I contact you?

It's in the folder.

So it looked like a gun?

Yeah.

In the heat of the moment

it looked like a gun.

The keys to his house looked

like a gun?

Have you ever

patrolled the streets?

Hmm?

Do you even know what it's like?

Okay it's no joke out there.

If you're not on high alert,

you come home in a body bag.

I'm risking my life every day

out there.

And for what?

Why am I even here?

He's a criminal!

Thief.

No violent record at all.

He turned around, it looked

like a gun.

What do you want me to say?

Nothing.

You've said enough.

So?

I'm not sure.

It's his second questionable

kill Devon.

I know.

If he's dirty,

I want him to go down.

I hear you.

So?

Do we really have to do this?

Yeah.

If you really care about me.

Hi.

We're here for the meeting.

Oh great.

I'm John, I'm the mentor.

What are your names.

I'm Angela and this is my

husband Kevin.

Hi.

[Kevin] Hi.

Well we're just about

to get started

so why don't you

guys find a seat.

[Angela] Great, thank you.

Welcome.

You can sit there.

Please feel free to share

if you're called to do so.

Otherwise, if you just wanna

listen, that's fine too okay?

Thanks.

Why are we

still going to this?

You like this sh*t just as much

as I do.

Shh.

Okay.

Well why don't we

go around the room

and introduce ourselves?
