The Inevitable Defeat of Mister & Pete
Mr. Carey?
Can I get a ride home?
Okay, look,
I know you asked me for a ride home
to try to convince me
to change my mind.
But I can't do that.
I know it's hard, Mister,
is exactly what you need.
When you were offered after school help,
you refused it.
That's... That's fine.
That was your right.
We can't force it on you,
but now you have to
accept the consequences of that choice.
I can't pass you.
But I am willing to do
what I can to help you.
It's plain to see
that you need it.
F*** you.
Get the hell out of my car!
Yo, what about
my son, man?
What about your son?
It's just me and him.
Let me go.
You can't lock me up.
I'm all he's got.
Man, don't worry about your son.
If you cooperate,
then maybe your ass will see him later.
they're gonna take care of him
over at Riverview.
Riverview? Hell, no!
Hey!
Daddy, don't let them take me!
Don't let them take me there!
TJ, relax.
Take care.
Look, man, you trying to take my son and
put him in the system?
Go ahead.
Watch your feet.
Get in!
Was he
beating up on you?
Did he hit you?
Yeah, he hit me.
He hit you?
Okay, that... I mean,
that's domestic violence.
Listen,
I need to talk to you
about the acting auditions
on August 7th.
Remember I told you about the TV show
in Beverly Hills?
The auditions are downtown,
and how you're gonna take me
to the auditions and you would...
Yeah, I know, Mister.
Why is Pete in my room
on my PlayStation?
Yo!
Go get something for dinner.
You don't you have any
real money?
This is real money, Mister.
Straight up,
I'm not babysitting, dude.
Mister, take Pete with you.
What you looking at, chopstick?
What'd you say to him?
I didn't say anything.
He stole.
What?
He stole.
Shut up.
And who told you to play
with my PlayStation, anyway?
Don't ever touch my stuff.
Denied. Insufficient funds.
What?
The card is out of money.
I will need
another form of payment.
F*** that.
Excuse me? Again, please.
Nothing. Just give me
back the card.
You know what?
I think I'll give it
to its rightful owner.
But it's my mom's, yo.
First of all,
I am not your "Yo".
Second, tell your mom
to come and get it if she wants it.
But not you.
You are banned.
Banned?
Banned for what?
Just leave
before I call the police.
But I didn't do...
Leave!
Why are you banned?
Why are you banned, Mister?
That's him.
The one who stole.
Yo, you don't snitch,
all right?
But stealing's wrong.
Look, people do what they have to do
to survive out here.
It's candy.
What are you talking about?
It's candy.
I heard you, man.
Annoying as hell. Damn!
Stay here.
The card
is out of money.
What?
The welfare card.
Dude at the store said
you have to come and get it.
Where's Peter?
I don't know.
Somewhere.
I'm right here, Mister.
Why's he here anyway?
If I'm babysitting,
his mom's is gonna pay me for real.
She give you money to pay me?
We're going out to eat.
What?
Go clean up.
We're going to eat.
We don't have money
to go out to eat!
Hey!
Don't talk to me like that.
How are you, Peter?
Good. Thanks.
How was school today, Mister?
Same as always.
It was the last day, right?
Guess you're a freshman now.
You know Curtis
from our building?
What about him?
He got nabbed today.
He did?
What for?
What do you think?
They took his son to Riverview.
Dude's like my age.
was into some bad stuff.
He should have known
his ass would end up in jail.
He works for the same
drug-dealing pimp you work for.
Eat your cheeseburger, Mister.
And what about his son?
He's stuck at the worst group home
in the world.
He deserves that
because his pop's a screw-up?
Jesus, would you eat your goddamn food
and shut up?
I'll be back in a minute.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Why're you here?
Eat the rest.
That's okay.
I'm... I'm full.
Eat the rest. Now!
Let's go.
No. Pete's not done.
He's not wasting that food.
He can take it
with him, Mister.
He's not taking it with him.
He's eating it now!
Finish it!
What the hell
is wrong with you?
What the hell
is wrong with you?
Sucking dick in the bathroom!
Keep the change.
Think big.
Think positive.
Always go for the throat.
Buy low, sell high.
Fear? That's the
other guy's problem.
Nothing you have
ever experienced
will prepare you for the absolute carnage
you are about to witness.
Super Bowl, World Series,
they don't know what pressure is.
In this building,
it's either kill or be killed.
You make no friends in the pits
and you take no prisoners.
One minute you're up half
a million in soybeans
and the next, boom, your
kids don't go to college
and they've repossessed your Bentley.
Are you with me?
Yeah, we got to kill the motherf...
We got to kill 'em!
They want you to buy
as much OJ as you can,
Stay here.
I'll be back.
Is it all right if I have
some water maybe?
Man, I don't care.
Hey, do me a favor.
What?
Run in there and get me a paper.
For what?
To read, why else?
He's not Chinese.
Where he at?
Why?
Because I don't
like him, that's why.
Something fishy
about that nigga.
Man, whatever, yo.
Why you can't just go in there
and get it yourself?
Man, what's with
all the questions, man?
You gonna help me out or not?
I ain't gonna be your paperboy and sh*t.
How's that supposed to look?
