They just empanelled a secret grand jury,
and GBI's looking for you.
They tryin' to get me to testify against you
on some bullshit murder.
What you gon' do?
But from the Lou from now on.
Yeah, my boy J-Pusha's already out there
with infrastructure ready to go.
You can't get mad if I move on by the time you get back.
In fact, I hear Glock pays well.
You out my circle of trust.
Next time, I'll teach you
how to handle a joystick better.
Uh...
I'm putting this family back together,
starting with the two of us.
And as for the doctor, there's a reason you chose me
over him all those years ago.
The best man won.
We just got to make sure you be careful with 5-0.
There may be some things on the road
that's kind of hard to notice.
So, I'ma walk you guys through T's school of driving.
Get the fuck away.
I know exactly who you was with.
What? No. I've been busting my ass
trying to take care of us, the family.
Nigga, fuck you. Your cook already gave you up.
How does a quiet night at home end with one officer dead?
Gun and badge.
I might not understand my daughter, but I sure as hell
won't let you spray one in her chest.
Put our differences aside,
countin' stacks instead of bodies.
I'll see what I can do.
Hey, Dizz.
You crazy?
If I hit the ball like that, I'ma get thrown out.
It's called a bunt, smart ass.
Here, let the master show you how it's done.
I'll do it. I'll try!
All right.
Give me one right over the plate.
See, the idea is you risk yourself
to give the baserunners a chance to advance
and get them just a little closer to home.
Because that's all that matters in this game,
getting them home.
Your turn.
Tell you right now, it's harder than you think.
Some lessons apply to every game,
the one on the field and the one on the streets.
And we had to learn them early.
Ooh, shit. Boy, you ain't lying.
Your baby bro is going to the big leagues.
You ain't talkin' that shit now.
Told you, we got that heat on lock.
Yeah, now that I seen your set up,
we can take over the South Side projects,
and the whole fucking Lou with the pure weight I got.
You got this, Meech.
Align that stance.
Bend those knees.
Damn!
Whoo!
Strike three, nigga!
First round at Em City on you tonight.
You'll get 'em next time.
I'll help you keep the ball in the zone.
And since when the hell you become such an expert at this?
Well, before I was playing softball,
I played a year in baseball in Carter's league.
Was the only girl on my team.
Yeah, yeah. We called her Slugger.
You know, Keeya like that little sister that lived next door.
- Slugger, huh? - Yeah.
Well, you left that part out when you introduced us.
Man, whatever.
It would have been a perfect game if your scrawny ass could
have thrown the ball to first.
What? Just 'cause you could throw pitches
don't mean you know how to throw punches.
Man, you on your Apollo Creed shit.
I'm about to Ivan Drago your ass.
- Oh, oh, oh. - Watch your hands.
Watch your hands.
Watch the arm, man.
- Playing too much. - Oh, you know what?
Since I'm such a old ass man,
go to the ride and get us some water.
How about that?
- All right. - All right, rookie.
- First round pick. - That's right.
Hey, no, for real, though. Your baby bro got some skills.
I'm talking about some real talent, you know.
Kind of reminds me of my young dawg, Rip,
except he ain't get to see his all the way through.
Help!
Carter! Somebody help!
Carter!
In baseball, the worst thing
that can happen is you lose the game.
But in the drug game, you can lose your fuckin' life.

I'ma pay for all Dizz's funeral expenses.
Homie said he spotted Henrietta prancin' down
Visger in a Starter fit.
And I got another one in the trunk
courtesy of Uncle Rodney.
So what we waiting for, boss?
Yeah, let's go man.
Get that antique shit off my table.
That ain't the move.
And besides, this shit ain't you.
How the fuck we supposed to rep ours
while that bitch still got breath in her fuckin' lungs?
Cuz ain't wrong, all right?
Henri's wearing his fucking jacket.
Hey. Hey, yo. You're not hearing me?
We not handling this with the iron.
Dizz used every dime to help his moms.
And he been about the D from day one.
Ain't bad enough, we are at war with a fat cat
like the Andreas?
We can't let her move in here and burn our crew, T.
You want your family to grieve?
You, you want your pops crying over your casket?
You want to tell your moms what kind of flowers
you'd like for your plot?
'Cause that's what war means, more funerals.
I'm going above Henri.
I'ma talk to the man in charge.
I'm still waiting on Blaze to set my face to face.
We both want the same thing now.
♪ Blood, blood Blood on your hands ♪
I'm talkin' 'bout he and Ray think he gangster?
All right, we on some gangster shit now.
They stay over there by King's Highway.
You from Detroit,
you should know how to use this.
Hey, man. I already got my piece, dawg.
You got two hands, though.
J, what the fuck is we doing, man?
What's the plan?
Look, we going to find Ray and get my brother back.
All right? Dump on him, if we have to.
Nigga, how the fuck do you even know
if they did it for real?
We rushing in there for no reason.
Nigga, you don't know shit.
Well, what am I supposed to do, Meech?
Huh?
I'm supposed to just sit here?
Dawg, I know you think that they killed Carter.
But if they wanted to kill that nigga,
they would have rolled up and popped his ass.
They wouldn't have snatched him, nigga.
That mean they don't want to kill him.
What is up?
You sold us that bullshit and called it weight.
Now I got your little brother, motherfucker.
Who the fuck is this?
Man, you know who the fuck this is.
Listen, we want our money back and the weight you promised.
Because if I don't get it, I'm going to cut this nigga up
in so many pieces, you're gon' have
to bury this nigga in a fuckin' tackle box, nigga.
I run these streets, motherfucker.
I'm not giving you a dime.
But I will give y'all until 4 o'clock
to get my brother back down to Carondelet Park.
I'ma hunt yo asses down!
What?
What'd he say?
This nigga said he ain't paying.
What?
Nigga, you said after this, he was for sure goin' pay.
Damn, man!
What the fuck we goin' do now?
Huh?
Hey, man. Calm down. I know you hot.
It ain't a good idea to go to the mattresses right now.
Look, I can't bow down to these pussies,
or every swinging dick on the street
going to try to test me.
I know that, man.
I got a brother too.
But you can't let pride get in the way with that shit.
It ain't worth it.
Meech might be right, J.
This is my town and my plan.
And it's my brother, not yours.
♪ Blood on your hands ♪
Hey, you on your own for dinner tonight.
I'ma go to LaWanda's after work to see the baby.
Charles?
Enjoy the filet mignon.
I hear it's small.
You read my card?
Another man sends flowers to my wife
to the house I built with my two hands,
you damn right I read it. What you thinkin'?
I don't want to get into this with you right now, Charles.
I was putting things back together when he showed up.
What he doesn't understand,
it has always been you and me and it always will be.
Yeah, well, it's really been all about you, Charles.
It's always about your wants and your needs,
- rather than anybody else's. - Oh, no.
- Here we go. Nah. - Yeah. Yeah.
Come on, Lucille. It's been three weeks.
And then when you get some money,
you spend it all on new instruments instead
of paying for some damn bills.
What about that closet full of clothes
and shoes you got upstairs?
Oh, yeah.
Well, I deserve to have some new stuff, too.
And I'm sure the good doctor will buy you
anything your heart desires.
But what he don't understand, money don't buy happiness.
His grass ain't greener.
Yeah, the truth is, Charles,
that the grass is greener where you water it.
And we've been in the desert for a long time.
Lucille, I love you, and you are my wife.
I don't belong to anyone.
I am my own damn woman.
I'm not some trophy, and this ain't no contest.
I have given everything to everybody,
and I ain't got nothing left.
I will be loved because I deserve it,
not because y'all want some childhood grudge match.
It will be me.
I will decide who I spend the rest of my life with,
not you.
For your newborn.
I thought we had a peace deal on the table.
Don't we still?
Your daughter torchin' my mans
is what I call a deal breaker.
Henrietta's theatrics have always been a pain in my ass.
All you got to do is sideline her.
She's still my daughter.
That would go against my reputation
as a boss, a man, and a father.
Then no deal.
Too bad you're going to let Henrietta destroy everything
you worked so hard to build.
And you keep saying you don't approve of her shit.
But if you not a part of the solution,
then maybe I start looking at you as part of the problem.
It's going to be okay, Miss Esther.
You don't know that.
Well, we gonna keep praying.
Where is he? Where's Carter?
He wasn't there, only this.
Fuck.
What is it?
What did they do to my baby?
Momma.
I'm sorry, Momma.
You could have told these monsters anything you needed
to bring Carter back,
but you fouled it up and let my boy come to evil.
What about my boy's baseball dreams?
Huh?
Ain't no letting these bastards go after this.
You find them, you kill them, and you bring your brother home.
Come on, Miss Esther.
You should get some rest.
I'ma bring him back, Momma.
I got the purest weight these fools ever seen, J.
I'll let you know,
whatever you need to get Carter back, I got you.
All right. Let's do that.
Speak.
You get my little package, nigga?
Yeah, I got it.
So you gonna pay, or what?
I'ma pay.
I'm putting money on y'all bitch-ass heads.
Y'all some dead men running.
And dead ain't going to be far enough, motherfuckers.
J, chill the fuck out
and think this shit through, all right?
Because I can make the call for the weight.
You need to calm the fuck down though, man.
Fuck that. Yo, hit the streets.
$100,000 on these niggas' heads.
$200,000, y'all bring Carter back alive.
Go get 'em. Go get 'em!
I'ma go check on Momma.
Not now, Keeya.
He actin' crazy, but I get it.
Carter like a brother to me, too.
He trippin', but I'ma figure this shit out.
Just don't worry about it.
This Tee. Hey, Tee.
How you doing? What's up, man?
Everything going good down there?
Yeah, you know, I'm good. Just trying to lock it down.
What's up?
Well, I'm actually hosting a concert in The Lou
and I need 1,000 comps.
Damn, you need that many tickets in The Lou already?
Look, J's brother is in trouble, Tee.
And he needs them now.
Captain save-a-bro.
Tee, if J don't get these tickets,
he might not make it, all right?
If it was you, I would do it for you.
Why do you got to keep inserting
your nose in other people's business
instead of focusing on ours?
Didn't we say that we gonna block in
so we can throw our parties down there
and stay out of that Atlanta heat?
Man, now you just talking out your Poindexter ass.
Your niece is doing well, by the way,
just in case you was wondering.
Why the fuck you always got to be like that, Tee?
I sent my gift to mom and pops.
It ain't my fault you ain't got it yet.
I'll have Calix bring you the tickets.
It's always about your ass. Right, nigga?
Sad.
I have to make things right.
Yes, but I'm scared.
Don't be.
You always do the right thing, just like your sister.
No, Baba.
I'm not like Michelle at all.
I don't always do the right thing.
I have to tell you something.
Veronica, what is it?
I don't tell you enough.
I love you, too.
And please, thank your friend the doctor for me.
I don't know what we would have done.
You would have had a baby.
It's been happening since the dawn of time.
Well, Dr. Montclair--
I mean, he- he did keep her calm and- and safe
and not to mention, alive.
Yes, he did.
Hey. Ta-da!
Surprise.
Where's my princess at, so I could spoil her?
Oh, come on, Désirée. Don't look at me like that.
I got a right to see my own kid.
Kids, Tee, kids. You got two of 'em.
Though, you know, I'm not even surprised you forgot
'cause you were so busy playing daddy
to that ugly bitch litter over there.
LaWanda, just stop, all right?
You sound real stupid. I didn't forget about my kids.
- Stupid? - Terry, stop.
LaWanda, he is the baby's father.
He don't need to make no appointment.
Maybe he do. You got a Filofax?
- We'll pencil you in. - Ha, ha.
Come on now. You know he is a good father.
I'm a good father and a good provider.
And I just bought this brand new minivan
outside for you and the kids.
Tch-tch-tch-tch. Oh, no Town n' Country.
Fuck them gifts.
You want to be a daddy?
Stay up all night and take care of that baby,
instead of wandering in and out at your leisure.
- How about that? - Yeah, look, I don't--
I don't know if I can-- Yeah.
Do all that.
Look, I-I'm tired. OK?
I got a newborn and a toddler.
We don't need your fucking presents.
We need you to be present.
That ain't fucking happening.
Aw, look how beautiful she is.
She got a grip of curls already.
Daddy loves you, baby. You gonna change the world.
You hear me?
Baby, I'm really glad that you here,
but I have to say that we all still disappointed that you--
you still messing around with that cradle robber.
What do you- what do y'all want from me?
She's a big part of my life now.
Why?
She ain't family.
You not tied to her like you are to LaWanda.
Now I swear, you and your father
are cut from the same cloth.
I mean, you're just not going to see what's in front of you
until it's gone.
You're going to lose LaWanda for good.
And you going to mess up your own home.
You know, you- you talking,
but you the one that's seeing Dr. Montclair.
Yeah, Nicole told me everything.
If there's anyone that's not part of this family, it's him.
Terry,
you--you need to stay out of my business.
I guess we're not so different after all, huh?
Hey, baby.
Mm-mm, man.
Man, calm your ass down, nigga!
I don't know about this shit.
It sounds like J-Pusha about to have
every nigga from Alaska Ave
to Delaware Drive poppin' lead in us.
Look, let's just wax dude off and get the fuck out of Dodge!
Man, look, that nigga, J-Push is cold,
but that nigga, Money Mook is 10 below, nigga.
If we don't pay that motherfucker back--
You don't think I know that shit?
Well, act like you know, then, nigga!
Man.
Cut off another finger.
No, no. No, no, no.
If J don't want to pay, fuck it.
His little brother gonna pay.
Look, man. I ain't sign up for this shit.
Where is he, motherfucker!
Ah!
Fuck you!
You good?
- Yeah, I'm straight. - Come on!
Yo, get that bitch ass.
All right, come on.
- Hurry up! - Get up!
- Nigga, fuckin' run. - Go!
See?
OK, don't do all that.
Yeah, stop listening to your friends, crazy.
Crazy. Step aside.
Seriously?
You good?
Yeah, I don't have anything in here that would make
the thing go off like that.
Um, I left my algebra book at home.
Oh, OK, the old, I-left-my-algebra-book-at-home
trick.
Hand it over.
Oh, that's mine. Yeah, I got that from coach.
We got new jerseys.
I had to use it to open up a box.
Who's this?
Fucking axle again, great.
Oh, shit!
Get some help out here!
I think this truck is full of coke.
Girl, he did a great job with your hair.
Will you give me his number?
Hold on. Let me get a pen.
Let- let me call you right back.
Hey. Missed you last night.
So she finally let you see the baby, huh?
Yeah, I saw her every two hours.
Well, that's good.
I mean, from what you said, Wanda sounded pretty pissed off.
What made her change her mind?
I-I just told her the truth.
I don't need permission to see my daughter.
Right. And let's be real.
With a toddler and a newborn,
you need all the help you can get.
Speaking of which, did you take any gifts for the baby,
anything her and Wanda need?
I'm just trying to be the bigger woman here.
Uh, n--no, no, but-but thank you.
I appreciate you for being understanding.
Maybe you could help me pick something out.
Of course.
Don't mention it, baby.
I'm already ahead of you.
Yo. Uh, let me call you back.
The tickets that was going to The Lou is gone.
What? What do you mean, it's all gone?
Calix crashed the truck.
Fuck.
Meech is going to flip.
Yo.
What were you thinking?
I didn't do it on purpose.
Well, why'd you have it at all?
For protection.
- From what? - From who?
I told you y'all already,
Darius was killed right in front of me.
- It's going to have some form-- - OK, OK, OK not here.
OK?
Right.
Honey, I thought we dealt with this.
Yeah, we talked about this.
Did we?
Because-- because I tried to talk
about it and everything else that our family refuses
to talk about at my dinner.
- And you two did what you-- - Nicole.
Nicole, please keep your voice down, please.
We will talk because we have no secrets in this family.
But you don't need to be bringing a knife to school,
especially not my tools.
You still don't get it.
Have either of you ever seen someone die,
afraid like that, looking to you for help,
and there is nothing you can do?
I just don't ever want to feel that again.
- I'm gonna go get the car. - OK.
I'd ask you what happened, but--
You don't want to know.
So after you left, Garr read me the riot act.
And when I mentioned Henri's name,
he got all cagey, like he knew something
he didn't want to talk about.
And then he suspended me.
Doesn't surprise me,
given the reach of Henri's family.
And given who Cobie's family is,
you'd think he'd be working harder to find a cop killer.
So I did some digging,
and this is what I was able to pull on Henri
before I walked out the door at Ecorse.
Her father is Frank "Blaze" Andreas.
He was a lieutenant when he left
the department, narcotics.
You think Garr's in his pocket?
Probably.
Blaze turned to politics to insulate the crime ring.
He and Henri are protected on both sides of the law.
You'll never take him down by the book.
So then maybe we write our own book.
I knew you'd come around, partner.
When I arrest Henri,
I'm going to put her in Cobie's cuffs.
Mm.
Hey, keep 'em comin'. All right.
The weight gonna be longer than I expected, dawg.
Fuck!
- What are we supposed to do now? - We good, though, man.
Don't trip.
I just got another source coming to bring it to us.
You know I- I wanted to go pro, too,
but I wasn't good enough.
So I stuck to hustling,
the only thing I am good at.
You know, Carter going to the major leagues,
that woulda been like a dream come true for both of us.
Keep your head up, J.
Speak.
They had Carter at a crib in Forest Park.
And they killed Franklin.
We got to go right fucking now.
Let's ride.
What up, fellas?
Now look, I got a recipe to whip the work
without cutting it.
I can turn one bird into two.
That's an added service when I'm your plug.
Yeah, man, but you know Henri crazy as fuck.
I ain't trying to get torched for leaving her.
Yeah, but you're about to drown anyway, nigga.
I'm about to flood the markets.
I'm going to be selling my shit for 7 grand less per key
than what she's selling for.
7 grand?
Yeah, you know how much y'all niggas love
a good-ass bargain, right?
Psh, the nigga ain't lying.
Look, y'all already know.
And when Henri can't sell her shit
for what she bought it for,
she won't be able to pay her plug back.
Then that nigga will take the trash out for us.
And we don't even got to do a thing.
Yeah, but nigga, we know you. If your mama was on fire,
you wouldn't give her the hose for free.
So why are you going to do it for us?
How much it gonna cost for these, uh,
additional services, nigga?
It's free of charge, for now.
But of course, once that crazy bitch is gone
and demand in the streets goes up,
I'll still whip y'all work for a nominal fee.
I'm in.
My man.
Look, fellas, it's me making y'all rich,
or Henri making y'all look over your shoulders
every two seconds, what's it gon' be?
All right.
I knew you was a smart man.
What the fuck?
Damn!
He worked for me at my store before I put him on.
These trash-ass motherfuckers bounced in a hurry.
He's still out there, J.
We're going to find him, dawg. Don't trip.
Hey, I got to go meet my homie with this weight,
but I got something for y'all to do.
It might save Carter's life.
But listen, you can't tell J nothing.
You hear me?
Hi, ma'am. I'm here to see LaWanda?
I know who you are.
And you got a lot of nerve showing up here.
I just wanted to speak to your daughter.
Oh, now I know this motherfucker
ain't tell you where I live.
I didn't come here trying to start anything.
I came with a peace offering.
I know the last time we saw each other, things--
Uh, you- you was with my man?
I'm not saying we gotta be friends,
but I'm not going anywhere.
Terry and I are together now.
And it's better for him, for everybody,
if he could be more comfortable being open to the both of us.
Oh, you just...
Think you sunshine on that nigga dick,
don't you?
Let me show you something.
Did he tell you he picked that out just for you?
Bitch, you ain't the better woman,
you just the other woman.
Ain't better, huh?
Well, that's funny, 'cause the last time I saw you,
you was looking like a cheap version of me,
only all fucked up. So guess what?
Keep trying to get everything that I got.
Well, let me tell you something.
You could keep both of these furs
for the cold nights you got coming up.
Now hold on, now.
You- you know, you might think you the queen,
but I'm the real royalty 'cause I got his blood, bitch.
Now you can take all you got
and get the fuck up out my house.
Wait. Hold up, now. Let's not be rude, baby.
Yeah, take this shit with you, too.
Really, Ma?
What up, doe?
Yeah, what up, big dawg?
Thanks for coming in the clutch, man.
Shit, you already know man, all day.
I brought some of them pants you wanted.
I ain't had time to pack or nothin',
so I just put them in the bag in the back seat.
Oh, shit. I appreciate you, man.
Well, you might not even need 'em to get our boy back.
I got an idea.
It might be a better play.
You know what's crazy, dawg?
I don't know why everybody keep going wild over this shit.
It's enough for everybody.
We gotta move the bag down here, Meech.
Them boys!
It's a raid!
Oh, shit. We gotta that bag.
Let's go. Let's go, man.
Fuck it. You stay, I'll go.
Fuck that. We in this together, man.
And you got Michigan plates. I swapped mine out.
Let's go. Get the bag! Get the bag!
On your 6 o'clock!
Hey, be cool. Be cool. I got an idea.
Grab the map out the glove box.
I got an idea.
A map? What are you talking about?
Yeah.
Excuse me, sir, we made a wrong turn.
Would you happen to know
where the Cardinals' practice field may be?
Traded on Monday and expect us to navigate
through a whole city on Tuesday.
Golly.
All right, here's what you two are going to do.
Take this to Busch Boulevard.
Take a right. Follow it all the way down.
- Can't miss it. - Oh, you're a lifesaver.
Thank you so much, sir. You stay safe out there now.
Will do.
Go Cardinals.
Crazy motherfucker, man.
I thought that was you.
