So go ahead and hook me up with one of | them sick notes so I can get outta school,,,

(laughs) Nice try, Tre,

I want you to stay on Donovan, Brooks | and Gallecki can handle the stakeout,

A'ight, You might not wanna | mention steak in front of Gallecki

- 'cause he starts salivatin',,, | - Thank you, Tre,

- Is your daughter still fine? | - Goodbye,

(phone rings)

- Speak on it, | - (Spanish teacher) Tracy?

- Who this? | - Ms, Lopez, Is your aunt or uncle home?

Ms, Lopez, This isn't about me | failing my Spanish test, is it?

What? You failed your Spanish test?

Here's my auntie right now,

Hello, Ms, Lopez,

Yes. I just want to inform you | that Tre has been struggling in my class.

Yeah, | The move has been tough on him,

He's having a difficult time making friends, | He can't even get a date,

- What you doin'? | - May I suggest some tutoring?

- The extra attention might be beneficial, | - I'm available tomorrow after class,

- Tomorrow would be great. Thank you. | - OK, Thank you,

Now, how is it that somebody who speaks | Spanish can be failing Spanish class?

I speak Spanglish, OK?

You know, her class is about | grammar and all that kinda stuff,

Plus it's hard to focus | 'cause she's hot,

OK,

"Do you wanna try swimming?"

& Quiero probar de nadar?

Listen, & Quiero tratar de nadar?

You used probarwhich is what you use | when you wanna try something like food,

- Not swimming, | - Tratar, babar, chico de bar...

Man, all these verbs mean the same thing, | This is so confusing,

You have to take the time to learn | the basics, I know you have the potential,

OK, Mira. It's like dating,

You can't expect a girl to fall for you | in just one day, right?

Shoot, I thought Spanish was hard,

- Women,,, | - Nothing that's worth it comes easy,

It's like school, You have to put the work | and the time in, and you'll succeed,

See, school ain't never | really been my thing,

You know, ever since I was a kid | I always wanted to be a man,

School kinda get in the way of that,

I think the point of school | is to make you a better man,

You always wanted to be a teacher? You | ain't never wanted to be a video dancer?

No, Well, I'm actually | a thesis paper away from graduating

with my master's degree in sociology,

OK, I'm scared of you,

Well, if sociology's your thing, why you | here teaching Spanish to silver spoons?

I don't know, I wasn't inspired to write | the paper so I took some time off,

and that's when | I got my teacher's credential,

Like,,,

wow, it's, like, three years ago,

I'm glad, 'cause you're | the most gangster teacher I ever had,

OK,

Well, thank you, I think,

No, no, that's good, Muy ganguera.

- You know how to say that in Spanish? | - Si, si.

Well, if you want me to reach my fullest | potential, I'll need a little extra incentive,

You're not gonna say a hug, are you?

Look,

Now, as huggable as I am, we must | keep this on a friend tip, Ms, Lopez,

How about if I pass your next test,

you show some Saints spirit | and show up to the Blacktop Battle?

You got yourself a deal,

A'ight.

- Buckle up, | - Yeah,

Bye, Tre,

If I make this, she digs me,

Headmaster P!

- 50 bucks I make this, | - 1 00 says you don't,

Yeah,

(player) Watch the back pick,

(player) Man, wake up!

(horn)

Yes, baby, Blacktop Battle | championship game, here we come,

So, you came by | to see me in my shorts, huh?

I came to give you this, Look,

I'm proud of you, Tre,

- Yo, I'm gonna have to frame this, | - I want you to keep it up, OK?

I'll definitely keep it up | if we can keep up our private lessons,

I'll see you Monday,

Finally, a reason to look forward to school, | Pack me an extra lunch,

- (Tre) Speak on it. | - Baby face,

Gallecki, you meant to call Domino's, | didn't you? What you got?

We're moving on Murdock | at a warehouse at Alameda and Sixth,

Secure the warrant by ten o'clock.

- Do not make a move until we get there. | - (Tre) Ten o'clock. I'm on it.

Damn,

Come on, guys, where are you?

Where you goin', Murdock?

- That punk from Westbury's followin' me, | - Hey, what's going on? This ain't cool,

- Yo, man, what are you doin' here? | - Who, me?

- He's got a gun, | - No, no, I ain't got no gun, l,,,

Something I forget to tell you | the first time we met, playboy, I'm LAPD,

There's something I forgot to tell you | the first time we met, playboy,

I'm DEA,

You know what this is?

No, man, what? Viagra? | Little soldier won't salute no more?

It's Bliss, | Two times the potency of ecstasy,

This is $5,000 worth,

I hate to break it to you, player, but it look | like you got five Gs worth of spring water,

Captain Delgado, | please meet Agent Jones, DEA,

- Agent, | - Captain,

Your man here wrecked four months | of deep cover work for me,

I was days away from | meeting Murdock's suplier,

Whatever, Your boy's a murder suspect for | the October 1 3 death of Warren Williams,

Oh, yeah? | Here's a little quiz for the student,

How the hell could Murdock have | murdered the kid on October 1 3

when I was in Vegas | with him that day, huh?

This multiple choice?

Thanks for your help,

Look, Cap, you can't blame all this | on me, man, You green-lit the bust,

Yeah, because I thought | you did your homework, Huh?

I thought you learned from your mistakes, | You were suposed to wait for backup,

Wait for backup? The exchange | was going down so I acted on it,

Crime don't wait on warrants,

Just once I'd like to see you | accept responsibility for your actions,

When are you gonna | start acting like a man?

When you gonna | start treating me like one?

(sighs) Every time I look at that kid | I see his father, All passion, no procedure,

You know, Cap, Tre's not the same kid | you watched growing up,

He's a cop, | He was onto something,

Yeah, well, the aple | doesn't fall far from the tree,

I just wish this aple | wasn't so damn ripe, What?

Look, Cap, I just wanna say I'm sorry,

Yeah, well, don't be sorry, be sure!

All right, you got one more chance, Tre, | Don't let me down,

(/ rock music)

- Drinks, | - Drinks, drinks, drinks,

- I would like to propose a toast to us, | - Us!

Hear, hear, Blacktop title game, baby, | Drink up, bud,

And to Alexander, Seriously, seriously, | for throwing this party, Thanks,

This is for you, from us, for all the hard | work you do on the sidelines, all right?

- Hey,,, | - Drink up, buddy, You earned it,

- There it is, There it is, tiger, | - (boy) Nice work,

(Tre) OK, hurry up, | Come on, Let's go,

Safe sex is the best sex,

Hey, Tre, what's up, my dog?

Hey, Tre, you came to my party,

You came to my par-Tre,

- Yo, man, how you feeling? | - Yo, I am feeling groovy,

Rob Donovan asked me | to throw a party in my cradle,

I mean, you probably don't know how big | of a deal that is, but for a guy like me,

it's big - very, very big,

Speaking of your boy Rob, | you seen him around?

No,

But have you ever realized | how weird of a word "llama" is?

Llama,

You don't plan on operating no heavy | machinery anytime soon, do you?
