MAN ON RADIO: The fight is over.
The former Champ is back!
Congratulations, Detective.
You got him to the ring.
Yeah. Well, I hope you remember
that when the proper time comes.
You like to beat on people, huh?
You ever tried with a grown man?
So what you doing for
work these days, hmm?
I got a line on something.

Who we robbin'?
(GRUNTS)
MCKINLEY: Boone. Me and you

Willie Black, Tommy, and Baby Ray,
y'all gonna be with the hostages,
shuttle 'em into the basement.
Y'all got one job.
To make this here look like
the foxiest party all year.
Vivian, Maxine
You three gonna be acting
like our distinguished hosts.
See, I feel like letting my hair down.
Your town. So where are we going?
CHICKEN MAN: I think I know a place.
- What's goin' on? Where everybody at?
- (GUN COCKING)
MCKINLEY: This is a fucking
robbery. Get on the ground!
CHICKEN MAN: Listen to me
now. Hey, okay. All right.
MCKINLEY: Move and you're fucking dead!
(BREATHING HEAVILY)
Y'all niggas gonna kiss or something?
Get the fuck on.
Go on.
Stop your ass right there.
Go sit down.
We got some new house guests.
I want all y'all motherfuckers to
make them feel welcome, you hear me?
Inside, right jacket pocket.
One ring, one watch.
Let me help you with this.
You're shaking too fucking much.
This your first time?
Get the fuck over there, now!
Take that fucking ring off.
Now!
WILLIE: Actually, all y'all
motherfuckers sit the fuck down.
That's all I got. That's all I got, man.
Get the fuck over there.
Hey, hold on, hold on.
That's it that's it, man.
You think you're slick,
man? Get the fuck back there!
- Forgot I had that.
- TOMMY: Move!
Hey. Now, look, man, we ain't
seen none of y'all faces.
So clearly, y'all smart, right?
Ain't nobody here trying to get hurt.
So why don't y'all do
what y'all came to do?
Hit your lick, get on up out of here
and, and, and let these people go.
And we just call it all even.
Or you can sit your country ass down,
before I change your life and
shoot your fucking dick off.
Who would be dumb enough
to be fucking robbin' us?
That's the million-dollar question.
(POP ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)
The Senator say everybody and they mama
gonna be at this party
tonight at the Hyatt.
Sidney gonna be there.
Liz Taylor. Lola Falana.
Man, I even heard Diana Ross
might make an appearance.
And I'm gonna get her
to sing a song for me.
One of them lullabies or something.
Yeah, well, the party's
supposed to end around 1:00 a.m.
- (ALI CHUCKLES)
- That should be plenty of time
to get you to the airport.
Man, that plane won't
take off till I'm on it.
Uh, we got a pretty strict
schedule to keep, Champ.
It's for your safety.
Hudson, I just got my life back.
Ain't no schedules tonight.
(LAUGHS HEARTILY)
(UPBEAT JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING)
So I told him. I said,
"If he go down in six, I just
didn't want it to end quick.
If he go down in five, check his pulse."
"Is he alive? If he go down in four,
Quarry couldn't take it no more."
JENKINS: J.D.!
- "If you he go down in three "
- (CHUCKLES)
There you are.
Oh, I tell you what.
- Mm.
- I'll hand it to you,
your team did solid work with Ali.
Now this puts a real feather in our cap.
- Uh, Chief.
- Hmm?
There is one thing I did
wanna bend your ear about.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's that?
- Bill Mason.
- Mm-hmm.
Getting a lotta complaints.
Brutality. False Arrest.
I think it's time we-we gotta
do something about this man.
Uh, you tryna tell me
how to do my job now
(CHUCKLES) are you?
No, no, no.
Look, look, Mason's a good cop.
He's just a bit high-strung.
(STUTTERING) Leave it be.
Leave it be.
(FUNKY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PLAYING)
You got something you need to say to me?
You and Chicken fucked up, that's what.
While y'all was too busy
focusing on the trim,
you should have been
hiring more security.
- VIVIAN: Security wasn't my department.
- Negro, please.
Chicken Man listen to whatever you say.
So let me tell you
something, this shit on y'all.
- Say that nose-to-nose, bitch.
- LENA: Hey, hey, hey!

You three, get down the hall.
Move. Now.
Watch 'em.
Get in.
Come on. Hurry up.
(SIGHS) Now, look, I don't
wanna hear a peep out of y'all
in this room. You understand?
- If I gotta come back in
- We won't be any trouble.
MCKINLEY: Good.
Oh. Don't even think about running,
'cause we got people on the street
watching all the windows and doors.
- We clear?
- Mm-hmm.
MAXINE: Now, whatchu

East Point. And yours?
I got people everywhere.
Okay, if y'all done wasting time,
I found us a way out of here.
Okay, and how is that?
The attic don't lead to the street.
Lead to the side of the house.
One of us get free, go get help.
Okay, simple. I will do it.
Yeah, all that behind ain't gonna
fit up through that little
Uh-uh. Look, I'll do it.
Plus, I know the neighbor.
East Point, what about you?
All right, let's do it.
VIVIAN: Okay.
How the fuck
did y'all miss this
motherfucker's ring right here?
Well, this ring here
is worthless titty dust.
- WILLIE: Mm-hmm.
- It just got sentimental value.
TOMMY: I tried pullin' it off.
Shit, the nigga finger's fat as shit.
Thing is, the damn thing is
too tight to come off now.
- Is it?
- Doc said some shit about hypertension.
Lemme see. Hypertension.

little bit too far now.
Shit don't stop till I say.
I think I think right now

reason for you to have her.
Let her go on back upstairs.
- Let her just
- Didn't I already told you to shut the fuck up, huh?
Didn't we already go through this, huh?
And you over here talking

But since you want to open
up your mouth for this bitch,
why don't you open up your
mouth for this shit right here?
- Go on, open up your fucking No, no, no, no, no.

Viv, you ain't got to do this.
It's okay, Chicken. (SHUDDERS)
Go on, sit the fuck down
before I paint the room
with you and your bitch.

I couldn't tell if he was more
sore about me whooping up on Quarry
or Governor Maddox for allowing it.
You know, Maddox so upset and
he been raising hell all week.
Why didn't he just stop the fight?
Well, if you call the
Senator up someday,
he'll tell you all about it.

your title in this front seat.
(BOTH LAUGH)
I bet you had a badge in
your cradle or something.
No, man. I didn't have
no designs on being a cop.
ALI: Get out of here!
Man, I'd have thought you
was third generation cowboy.
- (CHUCKLING)
- Like your grandfather was at O.K. Corral.
No, man, I'm from Buttermilk Bottom.
Poorest area in this city.
Never thought I'd be a cop.
So what changed then?
HUDSON: Well, department
was integrating, you know.
Me and my buddies almost
on a dare really
- ALI: Mm.
- went down there and took the exam,
I messed around and aced the thing.
- (ALI CHUCKLES)
- The rest was history.
I'm in the right job,
you know, being a cop.
There's honor in it.
I'm good at it.
- Can I ask you a question, Detective?
- Sure.
Your marriage rock solid?
'Cause based off these wings,
I might have to take Delores with me.
- Look here, man.
- She comin'.
I hope your sting is
faster than a bullet.

Them White boys lucky they

JENKINS OVER PHONE:
I got something for ya.
What, some more bullshit?
Beg your pardon?
Look, I did my job, okay?
I guarded Ali, got him
to the airport unscathed
despite your boss' fucking scare tactic.
- JENKINS: Hudson.
- No, no. Look,
I asked you to do one
thing for me, okay?
Something important and
you just brushed me off.
Are you done, Hudson?
Good.
I need you to get your ass
over to Collier Heights pronto.
We've got an armed robbery,
over 80 victims all shoved
into a goddamn basement.
Got a A DOA on the
scene, probably more.
This ain't no bullshit. It's a big 'un.
Now I need a fucking detective on this.
You ready to do some real police work?
Yes, sir.
Uh-uh-uh-uh. I see you looking around.
Unless your name is Harriet Tubman,

Put on a real good performance
back over there at the house, right?
And the Oscar for best performance

Please.
Well, I need some names.

I'm trying to tell you I
don't know anything, I swear.
I need the names of
everybody who's involved.
A man can make his mark
in the world, but
it ain't worth a damn
unless he can come home
and be welcomed.
LENA: Wait, wait, wait, Frank, please.
- Like a king.
- (LENA CRYING) Please.
This ain't the welcome I was expecting.
(LENA SOBBING)
'Cause y'all done fucked it up.
