- Curtis Freeley and Marcus Weans.

We got them on this surveillance tape.

- What have the police got on them?

- Raymond got out eight months ago.

- He did two years on possession.

- How much?

- A key.

- That's a lot for a small-timer.

It was Grillo's.

Lembecke wouldn't roll over on him.

Grillo gave him a job in the warehouse.

My guess is Lembecke felt he was owed.

Grillo wasn't giving, so he took.

Addy Monroe is Lembecke's girlfriend.

She has no priors.

Curtis Freeley is as bad as they come.

He's been in the joint twice.

For possession and assault with intent.

When he was inside,

he was Lembecke's muscle.

He's been in and out his whole life.

His record is extensive.

- And Weans?

- That's where we've got a problem.

Marcus Weans is one of ours.

Marcus, we've got to go!

Come on, Marcus, we've got to go!

- What are you doing?

- Can't a brother take a piss?

- May I ask what you're running from?

- No, you may not.

- It's got to do with drugs, right?

- Look, just do what you're told.

All they want to do

is sell it and disappear.

- "They"?

- I said "we".

- No, you said "they".

- Shut the f*** up.

You know what? Turn around.

- The highway is up here.

- Gordon, I know where the highway is.

What are you doing, Addy?

I figure we got a bad jump on this one.

The highway is crawling with cops.

What do we need to run for?

We have everything right here.

Why don't we head up into the hills,

chill out for the night, rest...

Let the heat die down.

Sounds good.

Hey, Gordon!

Turn around.

Ray, I know you and Curtis are tight,

but you have got to cut him loose now.

- What?

- He's out of control.

- If I left Curtis, he'd be dead.

- One of us is going to end up dead.

- Don't talk like that. It's bad karma.

- I'm serious, Ray.

We have to get past the next few days.

After Vago, it'll be clear sailing.

Don't worry about Curtis.

I can handle him.

- What if something happened to me?

- I don't want to think about that.

No, what would you do?

If something happened to you,

I wouldn't want to be alive.

- Really?

- Yes, really.

Now, come here. Give me a hug.

Gordon?

- What are we going to do?

- I don't know. We're going to be okay.

How can you say that?

These people are crazy.

They're probably scared too.

- They're going to kill us.

- We don't know that.

They haven't killed us yet, right?

That's only because they need us.

What's going to happen

when they don't need us any more?

They'll probably let us go.

Here are your categories.

followed by "Colours".

"Foreign words and phrases".

Science for 100, please.
