Mayor! Stop!

What are you doing?

What you didn't have the balls to do.

Or were you too busy banging

the boss's daughter to care?

- Emily!

- You used me!

I swear to God

I did not know Eddy was gonna do that.

Stop it. These guys don't

make a move without you, Sean.

- Emily!

- Leave me alone.

You lied to me, Sean. You lied to all of us.

I did, Eddy. I lied to you.

I was trying to protect a girl

I really care about,

but I guess it taught me a lesson.

Shut up, both of you!

You knuckleheads never know

when to give up, do you?

Your little stunt is all over the news.

We've been disqualified.

That's impossible. We got the hits.

Yeah, well, I got an email

from corporate office this morning.

They don't want to be associated

with criminal activities.

That's bullshit.

Anderson's pressing charges. We're out.

Guess we both got taught a lesson, huh?

Screw them. Screw you, too!

Too late, Eddy.

You already screwed everyone.

What did you think was

going to happen, Sean?

Think the old man was just gonna

give you his blessing?

You go live happily ever after

with his little princess?

You know what? I can't believe

after everything we've been through,

you'd pick that lying b*tch over me!

Look, I was the one who told her

to keep quiet about her father

because I knew you were

too stubborn to get past it.

You might think a lot of things about her,

but she would never do that to someone.

I quit.

Get off me, man!

Hey, it's Emily.

Leave me a message and I'll call you back.

Emily, it's Sean. You have to believe me.

I had nothing to do with

what went down last night.

Please just give me a chance

to try and explain things.

You have my number.

I'm sorry.

I never meant to hurt you.

It's all over now.

The plans were approved.

We're gonna start construction right away.

Where's Sean?

He came by this morning to help.

You have no messages.

Where do you want this?

Here.

Emily Anderson.

Emily, I thought you were doing a duet.

I've changed my mind.

I'm doing a solo.

Emily!

Emily.

What are you doing here?

I had to know. You make the company?

What are you gonna do?

Keep my promise.

Go back and work for my dad.

Don't do that. Don't give up.

What about you? When's the next Mob?

Your home is being destroyed.

You should be fighting for what you want.

This is where Sean and I came up

with the first Mob.

Right here.

You know, this Iucha between you two,

it's no good.

Well, I didn't start it.

But you ended it. And made it a lot worse.

He lied to me, Ricky.

You're young.

You haven't met that special someone yet.

So you don't know. But one day you will.

And when you do,

I hope you won't lose that special someone

the way your friend did.

Go make it right, will you?

Please.

What are you looking at?

What's going on?

I really messed up.

And I don't have an excuse

other than... I don't know...

It just felt like we've always had that whole

"you and me against the world" thing.

I started to feel like it was fading.

But it doesn't matter. It was stupid.

I'm sorry.

It's not all on you.

I should have never lied to you.

Does that mean I've got

my best friend back?

I don't know.

Supposed to exchange rings or something?

God, no.

But you knocked one of my fillings loose,

you crazy freak.

From now on, this is the only thing

you get to hit, okay?

Hang on.

- Yo, Sean.

- Hey, what's up?

We're sorry, man. All of us.

Yeah, The Mob ain't the same without you.

We took The Mob, everything we had,

we turned something positive

into something ugly.

Maybe there's a way to fix all that.

To give us one more shot.

To do what?

To do what The Mob was intended to do.

To be heard.

It's not about a contest anymore.

It's about giving the people

that can't speak a voice.

Only thing is, we're gonna need

more voices. A lot more.

That shouldn't be a problem.

We've got a lot of folks around here

that like to be heard.

That's so true.

Well, we've got some work to do.

Yeah, baby!

We don't have to replace him after all.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Listen up, listen up!

It's not a freestyle session. It's up here.

The second one is down here.

Do it again.

If this works, it's gonna be a damn miracle.

Yeah.

We're gonna need all the help we can get.

Jason. What's up?

What's going on?

I've got something big

popping off in Miami.

I'm gonna need some bangers

to help pull it off. What do you think?

Okay. What have you got in mind?

Check this out.

That's fresh, right?

Now imagine a bunch of people doing that,

coming down the way we want to.

That's cool. But what are we

gonna do about costumes?

I've got it.

So, he has costumes now?

He just talked.

You know what, my friends?

Today is our day.

And what an exciting day

for this neighborhood

which is about to enter

a new era of prosperity.

Thank you.

It's been a difficult journey

to get to this moment,

lots of discussions, some disagreements...

I'm glad you're here.

We'll be back in Cleveland soon,

put all this behind us. Okay?

Now I'm proud to welcome up here

my dear friend, Bill Anderson,

and to present to him,

as a token of this occasion,

a shovel that would say...

Hello?

- Hello?

- Hang on.

What's going on?

Son-of-a-b*tch.

Ladies and gentlemen...

What the hell is that?

For weeks you've been

asking, "Who is The Mob?"

The Mob is all of us.

The Mob is Miami.

And Miami is its culture.

If you take down the culture,

you take down Miami.

We have something important to say.

So now let us say it

in the best way we know how.

Hey!

Why aren't you doing anything?

Oh, my God...

Shut the lights off!

- Well, we did it!

- Not yet.

There's one more thing to do.

Go get her back.

Come on. Isn't it time

to start fighting for what you want?

Emily?

Hello, Andy, my boy.

I'm Robert Alexander the Third.

But you can call me Moose.

- Moose?

- What up?

I think it's pretty clear that this community

has something to say to you.

And we are here to help them say it.

Mr. Anderson?

There's no way we can stop you

from destroying our neighborhood.

But we wanted to show you

what's being lost in the process.

Hey-

I'm sorry about this, Bill.

Things didn't quite go as planned.

Good. Because our plan just changed.

Maybe there's a way

we can build this neighborhood up

without tearing it down.

What do you say?

Yeah!

But why "Moose"?

I think the question

you have to ask yourself is,

"Why not 'Moose'?"

I feel you, babe. I see you.

Excuse me.

Not now, Bob.

Actually, I wanted to talk to him, not you.

I'm Bob Cooper, owner of

the marketing firm Mr. Anderson employed.

I hope you don't object,

but our biggest client is actually Nike.

Yeah?

They're looking for something different

and a little more cutting edge

for their new campaign.

I think your crew is perfect.

Ready to introduce The Mob to the world?

What do you think?

What do I think? Where do I sign?

Look at what you did.

You brought all these people together.
