- Where you getting the cash from'!

Investor. We got an investor.

He's gonna take a big piece at first,

but it'll be all right.

Come on. I want you to meet my boys.

They're outside.

- What, now?

- Somebody had to give me a ride.

You have some money on you'!

Oh, sh*t. Yo, this is my brother Jim--

I mean James.

This is Ray. This is Sugar.

Hey, man. How's it going?

- Hey, man.

- How's it going, buddy?

Sugar. Sugar, Ray.

Where's Leonard?

That sh*t's funny, though.

We heard a lot about you, man.

So, like, James has some questions

about the investor...

- how the deal's gonna go down, all that sh*t.

- As he should.

I don't know if Frankie's told you,

but I don't have any cash or nothing like that.

- Look, man, who does'!

- No, we don't want your money, man.

I'm putting together a team

of people that I can trust.

We have a meeting tonight.

Give us a lift, I'll tell you more.

- You want me to drive'!

- Yeah.

I thought you gave my bro a ride here.

Oh, yeah, we drove.

We got a car, but it's small. 228

I don't like small, man.

I don't like small at all.

- Unless it's p*ssy, though.

- Unless it's p*ssy.

Come on. Let's take a ride.

All right, come on. Hop in.

So you did all the work

on this yourself, huh?

Yeah. Yeah, I did all the body work

over the last couple months.

- I just got her running a few weeks ago.

- Good with cars. It's good to know.

- Yeah, I'm not bad.

- This kid's the best, man.

He can fix 'em, he can build 'em,

he can race 'em.

He's too humble.

I also hear you did some time.

Yeah, Frankie told you about that'!

- Yeah, Jimmy.

- Yeah, what can I say'! I was stupid.

Hey, happens to the best of us.

Yeah, I guess so.

Pull in right over there, Jimmy.

- Who works this late?

- Who asks so many questions?

Our investor owns the place.

We won't be long. 20 minutes, tops.

Hey, when we get back,

your ass better be right here,

you hear me?

- Frankie. Frankie.

- What? What?

I got a bad feeling about this.

Jimmy, come on, man,

the guy's got a red-eye to London.

If we don't do it now,

we lose our shot. It's good. It's good.

Come on, come on, came on.

- Oh, sh*t. Get in the car.

- What the f***?

- Back in the f***ing car!

- Get in the making car, come on.

Go, go, go-

When I say stay in the car,

you stay in the f***ing car!

- Drive!

- Oh, sh*t!

Go!

- You blew the f***ing guy away

for no reason, man. / What the f***?

Relax. Relax, man.

- You shot that motherf***er for nothing.

- Shut the f*** up!

- This is f***ed, bro.

- Be more like your brother, Frankie.

- Cool.

- Cool. All right. We're f***ing cool, man.

You're complicit in this.

Welcome to the family.

Get rid of this car.
