a community service order.

He banned all contact with Rex,

pending assessment.

- At least you didn't go to jail, right?

- Yeah, I wanna see my kid, man. Get it?

F***!

- What other way could it have gone?

- This stupid b*tch.

- Don't do it, brother.

- Thank you.

- No, no, no!

- Mel, Mel!

Feeling good about yourself, Doreen?

Are you gonna tell Rex

that you banned me from seeing him?

Or are you gonna lie like you

normally do and blame it on me?

- The judge banned you, not me.

- Yeah, 'cause you f***ing instructed him.

Melvin, do not swear at me, okay?

I'm not intimidated by you.

- Those days are past us.

- Doreen, please. Don't do this to me.

You're hurting Rex just as much

as you're hurting me.

I mean, why do you have to be so cruel?

What did I ever do to hurt you so bad?

- You need reminding.

- Please don't do this.

It's done, okay?

The judge has passed it down.

Yeah, well, when Rex is older, he's gonna

hate you for using him to get at me.

I am not using him.

I just don't want him to live amongst

the wreckage that is your life.

Look at you!

You have no manners and no grace.

And I abhor what you've become.

Hey.

Yeah!

That motherf***er George Bush,

sent us over to Iraq in '91.

82nd airborne division.

I remember that first push. We're going

through Boswa. We was tripping.

I get hit by this sniper.

Motherf***er tagged me from behind.

Took out my lower spine.

Love you, guys.

My wife...

she was so ashamed of having a husband

that the stank b*tch didn't even show up

to Fort Brag when they sent my ass home.

But Melvin did. Him and his momma.

Told me I could stay with them

'til I got my sh*t together.

One of these days he's gonna get his sh*t

together. You know what he said?

He said I could stay with him

'til I get back on my feet.

What kinda sh*t is that?

Back on my feet. Right.

Jump!

Sh*t!

You alright, man?

I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good!

I'm good. Baby, I'm good.

- Lucas is here.

- What?

Lukey!

With his spectacles and all.

Yeah, Lukey!

The motherfucking science teacher.

What's up, bro? How you doing, man?

Melvin is not like other people.

Ever since we were kids,

we came to discover he had...

abilities to move objects using

only the power of his mind.

Okay, so... on first glance,

if you look at both heads,

you don't see anything different.

Now... let's look at Melvin's again.

Here, we start to notice

very small anomalies

on the outer sleeve of the brain.

That's about the only thing

that I see that's different.

And I've studied this guy

for over a decade.

Everything else about him reads normal.

I run tests on every other part

of his body and found nothing.
