clearing the, uh, graveyard.

Since when do you

care about that sh*t?

Since you got arrested,

cabroncito.

That sh*t back there,

that's my savings account.

Everything back there

is valuable. Alright?

That's how you're going

to pay me back

for getting you out of jail.

Hey, boss. You okay, or what?

Never seen you cut

a coasters meeting

like that before.

No.

Everything's not cool, homes.

We have elysian park

in a few weeks.

I should have stayed here.

You know?

Working on green poison.

Not bailing out my son.

Yeah, well, I wonder

where he gets that from.

Man, we used to get busted

all the time lowriding, man.

Riding dirty past them cops?

Could barely fit a quarter

between the Fender

and the street, you know?

What was the name

of that fat girl, man?

You know, the tank?

You know the one

I'm talking about?

Oh, Lydia?

Lydia. That's right.

Had a little light moustache.

Tell you what, man?

She wanted to ride

in your ride so bad.

The only reason why you let her

is 'cause she'd drop it

three inches.

I don't know, boss.

You stress too much.

Green poison is famous.

I mean, she's probably going to

win best in elysian.

I need to.

Only way we going to get

some business through that door,

you know?

Think I'm going to have to

cut half a turn on the coil.

Then she'll lay

three inches more.

You could do that,

or we could call Lydia back.

Hey! You know the rules.

No phone until after homework.

I already did it.

Oh, good! Then you can help me.

Hey, baby.

Hello, mi amor.

How was work?

Mm. It was good.

Did you cut half a turn

on the coil like I said?

Yeah, we're working on it.

It will lay three more inches!

I know.

Hey, Danny.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Okay.

Get ready for dinner.

Hi, flaquita.

Hey, Danny.

Isabel. You have to eat

the chicken too,

not just the rice.

And don't forget, tomorrow

we are going to Mrs. aguilar's

for your quinceanera dress.

Ma? Mrs. aguilar?

Look, I already told you

i found my dress at forever 21.

You're not going to wear

a store dress.

Forever 21? You ain't no 21.

That's the point.

If it's up to her I'm going

to look like it's my first

communion.

You have a date already,

flaquita loca?

Hey. No dates, alright.

You're too young.

Have you heard from Francisco?

You mean ghost?

He got out this week.

Wondering if you heard from him.

So, is he going to stay here?

He's more than welcome to

if he wants.

We're not talking about that.

Why not?

Why can't we talk about ghost?

Danny! Wait!

Leave him alone.

Who's there?

Will you look at that?

I'm back for two seconds.

You're already

trying to kill me?

Come here.

Show your big brother some love.
