We don't come back everyday, you

One times we come back, you want

chances that child getting shot.

Ain't nobody here.

He's hiding back there in the armoire.

You all stay with her. Armand.

Get out. I said get out.

Damn, man

You know, it's always nice to see

intact family.

Father want as his obligations, as far

as the children are concern.

Less the important thing. You maybe

hiding in an armoire. But your child

knows you're here.

- Are you trippin' man?

- Armand give us some air, would you?

And shut the door.

Shut up.

Sit down.

Relax, take a sit.

Now we can talk.

- You dont mind if I light one up, do you?

- F***, man.

I find it relaxes me.

What the f***, man.

You know we got your boy. "G" right?

Man, I don't know no "G".

He knows you.

It's amazing how much you can get done

when you got a simple purpose guiding

you through life.

My purpose is to find out who shot up

this apartment, on Josephine.

I know the guy is from Senegal,

I know he was selling heroin,

I know whose territory he was stepping on.

I know who went over to the apartment to

straight him out.

I found out all that in the past few days.

Where's Big Fate, Son?

I don't know no Big Fate.

You see, I know that's not true.

Because everybody who comes from where

you come from does know who Big Fate is.

The fact that you're lying to me about

it, tells me you're hiding something.

Since you know my only reason for being

here is to find out who shot up the

apartment I know that's what you're

See, it all...

It all comes back to that same simple

purpose.

Man,

I ain't telling you sh*t.

Hey, what's wrong?

Your father was mad at me because I

can't take care of his f***ing dog

Why he had you to take care of it?

Because he's going back into A. A.

He says he can't deal with anymore

responsibility.

Besides, he's gotta stop drinking.

I mean gotta take care of it, but I leave

at 7 o'clock in the morning to go to work.

Let me talk to him.

I tried to be good wife to him,

Terrence. I do.

But you know I got a limit too.

He says he got a drinking problem

He wants to do something about it,

that's good.

He's been down that road before, It

didn't take, he wants to try it again.

Good.

I said why don't just take beer the way

I do. He says he can't do that.

- Hey, Pop.

- How are you doing?

- You said the meeting is at 7.

- I'd like to get there early. Set up the chairs.

I'll take it.

She can do it.

I came over to see you let me take you

for a ride at least.

You feed the dog?

You feed the dog?

I can take care of it.

What are you talking about?

Genevieve told me a little about what's

going on and I'll take the dog off your

hands for a while.

And how you're gonna take care of a dog?

I got a friend. She just loves animal.

All of them. Dogs too.
