some food, a place to stay.

Then I can think about getting a computer

and all of that.

I got you, man.

When you write about this,

you make sure you keep it 100.

Cos f*** all this.

Running, hiding.

I'm tired of it.

Day, go find yourself five rocks.

You all right?

Them Brandy Heights niggas is after me.

Nigga, everybody out there chilling,

right?

And out of nowhere, these niggas

pull out heat, get to bustin'.

I'm heated.

What the f*** do you think I'm gonna do?

I bust back!

I hit a kid, Cuz.

A f***ing ten-year-old kid.

Look at Day, man.

Handsome.

[Gideon] Day.

Come here, man.

- You got some rocks, Day?

- Yeah.

[PA] Now serving A051

at window number six.

Your problem is you owe over 15 grand

in child payment support.

How does that make sense?! I only got $85.

Mister, don't raise your voice at me, OK?

How was I supposed to pay child support

when I was in jail?

I can't issue you a state driver's license

if you don't pay this outstanding amount.

- That's all.

- Wait.

I gotta get a job to pay child support.

To get a job

I have to have a driver's license,

but to get a driver's license

I still need to pay child support.

- I'm confused by it as well.

- Right.

It's a messed-up system.

There's a website that you can go to.

Wi-Fi this and Wi-Fi...

Look, I don't have a computer, man.

You're gonna have to help me out on this.

Well, why don't you go to Social Services

and tell them about it?

You can get your child support payments

either reduced or annulled over there.

My baby mama didn't file

for no child support.

She didn't file for it.

She's on AFDC.

The county files child support for her.

So you can't give me my driver's license?

No, sir, I cannot.

All right. Thank you. Come on, let's go.

[Gideon] I got your laptop.

[engine revving]

Hey! Hey, G!

Hey, G, get the f*** out of here, Cuz!

Brandy niggas are coming in the car, man!

Hey, come on, man! Niggas in the car!

Hey, come on! Leave that sh*t!

[engine revving]

[tires squealing]

Come on, Son.

[gunshot]

[gunshot]

[gunshot]

[gunshot]

[engine revving]

[gang member] Go, go, go!

- [doors slamming]

- [engine revving]

G.

G.

G.

[siren approaching]

Come on, D, man.

[distant siren blares]

- It's gonna be OK.

- OK.

[gasps]

[mutters] F*** both those niggas, man.

F*** both those niggas.

My f***ing nigga, man.

[whimpers]

[sighs]

He OK from last night?

I don't know.

Oh, Deacon. This is my brother, Bambi.

Oh, blessings, brother.

I'm guessing you two aren't twins.

- [laughs]

- We have different fathers.

Well, take some food home.

We've got plenty of leftovers.

Yeah, thanks.

Oh, uh... Deacon, can I ask you something?
