CRAIG:

They ever let you hit the switches on

that Cadillac?

DAY-DAY

Naw, them dudes is a**holes. Especially

that dog - Cheeco. Watch this little

ass, he's sneaky. Plus, I got something

better than a Cadillac.

They walk over to his black BMW 325i on chrome rims.

CRAIG:

This you?

DAY-DAY

(proud)

Yeah, that's me. Just a little somethin'

somethin' I picked up.

CRAIG:

Must be nice. I wish we won the lottery.

Come up on a million dollars like ya'll.

DAY-DAY

Man, after taxes, lawyer fees, and paying

off my daddy's bad credit, we didn't end

up with a million. We bought this house

and I spent the rest on this. It's the

bomb, huh?

CRAIG:

This my baby. I feel like a new nigga in

this car. I get mo' phone numbers

rollin' this, than I ever did on the bus.

MISS HO KYM (O.S.)

Hi, Day-Day!

They turn to spot MISS HO KYM (67), the old Korean lady who

lives next door. She's sitting on her porch nursing a cup of

coffee.

DAY-DAY

(speaking louder and slower)

Hi, Mulan.

MISS HO KYM:

F*** you, Day-Day. Who's ya boy?

DAY-DAY

This my cousin, Craig. He just moved out

here from L.A. Craig, this is Miss Ho.

Day-Day smiles at Craig.

MISS HO KYM:

My name is Miss Ho Kym. Day-Day just

trying to be a smart ass. Nice to meet

you, Craig. Are you 'bout it, 'bout it?

CRAIG:

Excuse me?

MISS HO KYM:

I said...are you 'bout it, 'bout it --

rowdy, rowdy?

Craig can't believe his ears.

CRAIG:

Yeah, I'm 'bout it.

MISS HO KYM:

Well, then, it's all good. Yo, Day-Day,

something is going down with those

Mexicans across the street? I've been

seeing a lot of activity.

They all look over at the Joker's house.

CRAIG:

What kind of activity?

MISS HO KYM:

Strange activity. I think they running

drugs off Tijuana. Day-Day don't believe

me.

DAY-DAY

How do you know for sure?

MISS HO KYM:

I know everything, playboy. Don't hate,

congratulate.

DAY-DAY

I don't have time, Miss Ho, I'll see you

later.

Day-Day and Craig start to walk back to the house.

MISS HO KYM:

See you later, Day-Day. Come by after

work, I got the John Blaze sh*t for you.

CRAIG:

Nice to meet you?

MISS HO KYM:

Peace out, Craig.

INT. UNCLE ELROY'S HOUSE - CONTINUOUS

Day-Day and Craig enter the house. They still have the

furniture from the projects. Craig looks around. He spots

at a few hanging pictures.

CRAIG:

Man, this a cool house.

DAY-DAY

(picking up a picture)

Thanks, I just wish my mother had a

chance to see it.

Mother's picture: she looks like Day-Day with a wig on.

She's smiling and holding the winning lotto ticket.

DAY-DAY (cont'd)

But when she found out we won the money,

she had a heart attack. You know the

story.
