and then I gets

I'm thinking

about it right now.

Let me get myself together.

Cut! Cut!

God forgive me.

Take the $150,

go buy you a eight ball.

Flip the eight ball,

you gonna make 300 off that.

Take the 300,

get you a quarter.

Take the quarter ounce,

flip that.

Stay over at Aunt Lea's...

Like if you...

If there wasn't

an audience out there,

I would race you

up and down

the audience steps.

We can go.

You know

we can go, too.

Take the half ounce money,

flip the half ounce money.

Now you ready for a ounce.

You got a quarter ki now!

Now everybody

in the neighborhood

got on new sneakers

and walkie-talkies.

Everybody

is working for you,

you doing your thing

and everything.

I hope the feds

ain't watching this.

I'll call you back.

I am. I am afraid, okay?

I'm... I'm...

I'm afraid of being hurt,

and I don't

want to be hurt.

You pursue

unattainable men.

What?

You want men

you can't have.

Men I can't have?

Listen here... okay?

I can have any man

I want, okay?

Don't get me

twisted, 'Scoe.

I am pretty

in the face and thick

around the waist.

You better

I got sugar walls!

This right here

is sweet tea.

Ain't that

right, baby?

Yo, ma.

Yeah. I'm saying,

Doc, the booty

is illmatic!

Well, that wasn't

quite what a brother

had in mind.

But that's the thing

about family.

Unpredictable,

but entertaining.

And we love 'em.

Peace.
