00:08:19 Business must be good.

00:08:40 You been making money
00:08:43 I just been doing a little
00:08:46 A little experimentation-type thing.
00:08:49 At the clubs, some of the guys step away
00:08:54 ...to buy $50 or $ 100 worth of sniff.
00:08:57 I set them up in the back room
00:08:59 ...and 15 minutes after leaving the club,
00:09:04 So what?
00:09:06 They ain't come back for the cocaine.
00:09:13 You sound like
00:09:16 I don't know about all that
00:09:20 ...they be going crazy over this.
00:09:24 Oh, Lord! Them bitches,
00:09:30 I had my jimmy waxed every day

00:10:31 Rocking from turntable number 1
00:10:34 Just like he want to do.
00:10:36 You going to frisk me too?
00:10:43 Yo, my boy, Nino in the house.
00:10:50 You want a flower?
00:11:22 I think you'll like him.
00:11:25 What's up, crew?
00:11:28 Nino, your girl looks good.
00:11:32 You must like slumming, Kareem.
00:11:35 Why would a high-class guy like you
00:11:39 ...come all the way uptown
00:11:43 ...to work among a den of thieves?
00:11:45 I'm no dummy.
00:11:46 It's basic common sense and arithmetic.
00:11:48 The difference between
00:11:52 ...and you paying me $8,000 a week.
00:11:54 I think my cousin also likes the fact...
00:11:56 ...that you're in the tradition
00:12:00 Who?
00:12:02 Good. Because you got to rob
00:12:07 They running a strange program.
00:12:11 More poor and disenfranchised folks
00:12:14 They try to act like it don't exist.
00:12:17 Meanwhile, the rich get richer...
00:12:19 And the poor don't get a thing.
00:12:20 Times like these, people want
00:12:24 And this is going to do it.
00:12:28 And make us rich.
00:12:32 I mean, what,
00:12:36 It look like cracked-off pieces of soap.
00:12:40 The Colombians and Dominicans
00:12:43 The shit is large.
00:12:45 But we'll do it differently.
00:12:48 No more selling on street corners.
00:12:50 Change the product,
00:12:53 I've seen the future.
00:12:56 And its name is the Carter.
00:12:59 Hold up. The Carter Apartments,

00:13:07 You're taking over The Carter?

00:13:30 You hook up the computer, watch out for
00:13:35 The Duh Duh Man, Keisha,
00:13:38 ...to ward off the rival crews,
00:13:40 We also need lookouts...
00:13:42 ...here, here and here.
00:13:45 Alert us of 5-0.

00:13:56 You's a genius, man. A pure, un...
00:14:01 Unadulterated. Would you please shut
00:14:06 Hey, man, suck my dick.
00:14:11 It's a brilliant plan.
00:14:13 But one thing does concern me, though.
00:14:16 That curry-goat-eating, skinny-ass
00:14:19 He controls the Carter.
00:14:23 Rock-a-bye baby.
00:14:25 He'll be hanging with Elvis.
00:14:29 Damn.
00:14:31 Crack.
00:14:41 Hey, dreadlocks. What did Bombock
00:14:47 Let me speak with you.
00:14:50 Rastaman, I'm here to tell you

00:15:58 And now we're living

00:17:41 Jack
00:17:45 City
00:18:00 If you just say "no,"
00:18:03 We say "yes" to education.
00:18:06 We say "yes" to dedication.
00:18:09 ...to a higher station
00:18:14 ...to make a positive impact
00:18:27 Sergeant, I'm talking to you.
00:18:29 I want to know how drug pushers can take
00:18:33 ...right under your nose.
00:18:35 If you lived in The Carter Apartments,
00:18:40 Hey, don't walk away. Listen to me!
00:18:43 I fought for this country. We pay taxes
00:18:49 I told the Commissioner
00:18:53 - You got those files?
00:19:03 Let's hope he buys it.
00:19:06 Peretti and Appleton. No way, Stone.
00:19:09 Who else you got?
00:19:10 - They're the ones I need.
00:19:12 Nick Peretti almost killed his partner
00:19:17 Probation.
00:19:18 Semantics, Stone.
00:19:21 These 2 are trouble.
00:19:25 You and I know the system
00:19:29 Crack came on the scene
00:19:32 But now I got the mayor
00:19:35 ...and I need some results. Fast.
00:19:38 You get me Nino Brown.
00:19:40 Forget Peretti and Appleton.
00:19:45 With all due respect, sir...
00:19:47 ...you still don't get it.
00:19:49 You're not giving me what I need
00:19:53 I need cops that know these streets.
00:19:55 I need new jack cops
00:19:58 What you call a risk...
00:20:00 ...I think is our only shot.
00:20:12 You got your men.
00:20:17 But I don't want any waves.
00:20:20 Not a goddamn ripple.
00:20:52 Who the hell is this
00:20:54 Be cool.
00:20:56 This is Detective Nick Peretti, a crazy
00:21:01 A wild man no one else wanted.
00:21:03 He means I'm expendable.
00:21:06 Whatever, man. What did you
00:21:10 I came here to lay a name on you.
00:21:13 His sidekick, "Gee Money" Wells?
00:21:15 Call themselves
00:21:17 Used to stickup twobit jewelry stores.
00:21:19 Yeah, thrill-seekers, wanna-be gangsters.
00:21:24 What's up is this.
00:21:27 Evidence of murder, drug trafficking...
00:21:29 ...racketeering, tax evasion. Anything.
00:21:33 We've never been able
00:21:36 No shit. 1/3 of the department's
00:21:39 The other 2/3 don't care
00:21:42 What you saying?
00:21:44 Listen.
00:21:47 ...an independent drug-fighting unit
00:21:50 - Why me?
00:21:52 You're from the neighborhood. I can
00:21:58 So what's the catch?
00:22:01 There's no catch, man.
00:22:04 Because I know your ass, Stone.
00:22:07 Peretti goes with you.
00:22:08 This big biscuit-head looking...
00:22:11 Listen! It's not going to be another
00:22:15 Peretti is the only cop I could find
00:22:20 This is my shot.
00:22:22 And you fuck up, it's all on me.
00:22:26 I want to thank you because you know
00:22:32 But this guy, man...
00:22:36 You in or out?
00:22:38 I'm in, all right?
00:22:46 What do you mean,
00:22:50 I'm not asking him, I'm telling him!
00:23:00 - We're honored.
00:23:08 We understand you have
00:23:13 So what of it?
00:23:15 We know you've started to centralize
00:23:18 And you didn't notify Don Armeteo,
00:23:26 Your point?
00:23:27 My point is you fucking guys are cutting
00:23:34 It's time we renegotiate.
00:23:37 I'll tell you what, message boy.
00:23:41 You go back and tell Don Armeteo:

00:24:54 Nino and his Cash Money monkeys...
00:24:56 ...are dealing with those spicaroos
00:25:00 They don't even deny it.
00:25:02 Nor does he accept
00:25:05 Now, Gee Money, he was cool.
00:25:08 It was that testa dura, Nino.
00:25:15 You know what I say. You lay down with
00:25:20 Soon Nino will itch.
00:25:23 We'll be there

00:25:35 Suspects hand out consumables
00:25:38 Yo, shut the fuck up, man.
00:25:41 Ten years as a low-life, murderous bum.
00:25:44 Nino's trying to purchase a conscience.
00:25:49 Oh shit, that's the kid I shot!
00:25:53 Why don't you lose weight? You look
00:26:08 What's up, baby? Glad to see
00:26:11 Why don't you give me a turkey?
00:26:13 Look at your funky black ass.
00:26:19 But then you got shot.
00:26:22 You're messed up. Your life is crap.
00:26:24 I know I look like stir-fried shit.
00:26:27 Hook me up with some food.
00:26:29 There's a line. You got to wait.
00:26:32 Give this man something to eat.
00:26:34 Hook me up.

00:26:51 Want to buy a turkey?
00:26:53 I'm going to keep an eye on him.
00:26:58 You don't deserve that turkey.
00:27:02 Why I got to be owing you?
00:27:05 I was prom queen of King High School.
00:27:09 This is beneath me.
00:27:13 You were the prom queen.
00:27:16 Look at you.
00:27:20 Hey what?
00:27:22 Didn't I hook you up?
00:27:24 ...to get that pipe from that Iranian
00:27:29 Didn't I speak to your mother after
00:27:35 Add all that up...
00:27:36 ...and the fact that I'm a man who can
00:27:41 Get away! Get the fuck away!
00:27:46 Stop beating on her! Stop it!
00:27:56 Let go of me, man.

00:28:03 Shit, man! Fuck! Shit!
00:28:09 Shut up!
00:28:15 Shut up or I'll blow your brains out.
00:28:19 Don't hurt me.

00:28:23 Crack has got me.
00:28:25 I got no control over it.
00:28:28 ...but the shit be calling me.
00:28:33 - I need help, man.
00:28:40 - We got a crack monster.
00:28:44 - Hold him.
00:28:46 "Pookie" Benny Robinson. Your name.
00:28:51 - I'm trying to help you.
00:28:55 - It's for your own good.
00:28:57 They'll hook you up.
00:28:58 I'm going to die!
00:29:02 They're going to help you.
00:29:22 I had pretty much
00:29:25 Everything I thought I wanted.
00:29:28 I always had a need for acceptance.
00:29:30 All my friends were doing it.
00:29:33 Thought I could quit anytime.
00:29:36 That's when I woke up in the hospital.
00:29:39 It's a very simple program.
00:29:41 We only ask that you don't use
00:29:45 Don't leave before the miracle happens.
00:29:50 This program has revolving doors.
00:29:52 But just because you go out,
00:30:08 It's crazy, because...
00:30:11 ...I did everything. I whored.
00:30:15 I was so scandalous,
00:30:20 I have a crack baby.
00:30:22 He was born blind.
00:30:26 I know why he's blind.
00:30:30 I kept telling myself I was
00:30:35 I'm a junkie.
00:30:37 I'll be one the rest of my life.
00:31:04 It's the first time
00:31:07 ...and personally, I hope I never see
00:31:11 When I get out, I'll just take
00:31:15 One day at a time.
00:31:23 Chill out. You been out two minutes
00:31:27 It's not just a job. You saved my life.
00:31:31 Let me pay you back.
00:31:36 He promised me a job.
00:31:39 ...and report to you.
00:31:40 I don't know.
00:31:42 You know what will happen
00:31:46 I need to be a part of something.
00:31:56 Cool. You've been inside,
00:32:01 All right, Pookie.
00:32:04 Tell me what goes on in this dump.
00:32:07 It took me a while,
00:32:11 First, at the entrance, you got to
00:32:15 It's like a video club.
00:32:17 Nino's got it hooked up
00:32:20 Walking through that courtyard's
00:32:24 It's a nation full of zombies.
00:32:36 You're escorted to the 2nd floor where
00:32:41 A little panel on the wall opens up,
00:32:44 The code, the buzzer where that go?
00:32:46 The call goes to the "Drug Store"
00:32:51 I heard they got everybody in there
00:32:56 Nino don't trust a motherfucker.
00:33:06 Nino's one sick genius.
00:33:08 A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
00:33:12 After that, you can take your goodies
00:33:16 What's the Enterprise?
00:33:18 What am I, your ghetto tour guide?
00:33:20 They got all this equipment
00:33:23 When you're smoking crack, they say
00:33:28 You're going to another world.
00:33:30 Crack is the final frontier. That's why
00:33:36 People sit down and light that
00:33:41 That's some scary shit. Their eyes look
00:33:46 Nino has most of the apartments?
00:33:49 Man, are you deaf, or what?
00:33:53 Nino Brown's a mad scientist.
00:33:55 What did Marvin say? "The boy that

00:38:06 Slim, give a little bit of bass.
00:38:17 This is the sound
00:38:22 Everyone must know
00:38:26 We've been here before
00:38:31 It's time to let it show
00:38:35 Music is funky
00:38:37 Girls are so fly
00:38:41 So sweet and fine
00:39:17 Gee Money, come here,
00:39:21 That the skeezer you met
00:39:24 Yeah, Uniqua.
00:39:26 What's up, brother?
00:39:30 Once, but I just met her. You know,
00:39:35 I heard that.
00:39:38 Lord, have mercy.
00:39:46 You want to play rough?
00:39:49 Say hello to my little friend.
00:40:01 The world is mine.
00:40:03 And the brothers too, now.
00:40:06 The world is yours, Nino.
00:40:09 Only you won't be as careless
00:40:14 You absolutely right.
00:40:16 I like this girl of yours.
00:40:18 He ain't got no papers
00:40:20 You know what happens
00:40:24 They run the streets
00:40:32 It's true. I ain't got no papers
00:40:35 But nothing comes between us.
00:40:37 The world is mine!
00:40:40 All mine!
00:40:42 What the fuck are you doing up there?
00:40:45 A man like you, Nino,
00:40:48 A son. A mark to let the world know
00:40:56 You know, you absolutely right.
00:40:58 Shit. It ain't like I ain't
00:41:04 She can't have kids.
00:41:06 She can't fuck, either.
00:41:08 Maybe that's why she can't have no kids.
00:41:10 That ain't right, man.
00:41:14 - She can't?
00:41:18 Too bad.
00:41:19 You're goddamn right that's too bad.
00:41:39 Nino, you need to go get your girl.
00:41:45 You're right. I tell you what.
00:41:51 If I was you, I'd be looking
00:41:57 Why the fuck did you have
00:42:00 I told you before she couldn't
00:42:06 I love you!
00:42:08 And now you're taking me for granted.
00:42:11 This is corny!
00:42:14 - You act like I owe you something.
00:42:16 I don't owe you jack.
00:42:18 Okay, you did give me
00:42:22 And helped me build the brothers. But I
00:42:26 ...when your rich doctor daddy was
00:42:31 What's up with that? Right?
00:42:33 When your kleptomaniac mother
00:42:38 Don't throw no shit in my face...
00:42:41 You ever touch me again, I'll...
00:43:14 Yeah, I'm aware of that situation.
00:43:17 Stone, your man hired an ex-dealer.
00:43:19 I know it seems a little unconventional.
00:43:24 - Is it out of control?
00:43:26 Don't blow this.
00:43:27 - Does the Commissioner know about this?
00:43:30 Good.
00:43:38 I told you about that new-jack-cop shit.
00:43:41 I give you a chance and you hire a
00:43:45 Why don't you get off my dick?
00:43:48 When you're ready to put your sideline

00:44:28 I had to fill out an application.

00:44:38 Cracker barrel, cracker ass.

00:47:01 I'm ready. Don't I look ready now?
00:47:05 Ready to die.
00:47:06 Stay out of this.
00:47:11 He's already on the inside.
00:47:14 ...we'll have enough information
00:47:17 In my opinion, we get him out...
00:47:19 If I want your opinion, I'll give it.
00:47:23 I'm against it.
00:47:25 - But it's your call.
00:47:36 We told them, man.
00:47:39 Ready? Shit.
00:47:41 You better be ready,
00:47:45 You owe me. You owe yourself.
00:47:48 You owe the whole community.

00:49:53 I have no idea.
00:49:54 You should, he's your plant.
00:49:56 Cool out. You're jumping the gun.
00:49:59 But something's wrong with your guy.
00:50:01 "Four score and seven years..."
00:50:03 - Is that a secret code for help?

00:05:06 Somebody got to know something
00:05:09 See what I'm saying?
00:05:11 Ain't that right, Gee Money?
00:05:14 I think Gee Money definitely
00:05:17 Gee Money knows something.
00:05:21 You fucked up. You fucked up bigtime.
00:05:25 You're incapable of running this shit.
00:05:28 Sit your five-dollar ass down
00:05:32 Kareem brought him to my attention.
00:05:35 We got 300 employees.
00:05:37 I can't keep my eye on all of them.
00:05:42 If you was taking care of business...
00:05:44 What? If I was what?
00:05:47 What?!
00:05:50 Nothing.
00:05:51 That's what I thought you said.
00:05:55 A million-dollar-a-week business
00:06:04 It's your responsibility.
00:06:14 I never liked you anyway,
00:06:29 What's the matter, Gee?
00:06:33 Why are you letting some shit like who
00:06:38 You're bigger than that.
00:06:42 Something like this

00:07:51 ...let no man put asunder.
00:07:54 I now pronounce us man...
00:07:56 ...and wife.

00:08:13 ...nor adulterers, nor abusers
00:08:17 ...shall inherit the kingdom of God.
00:08:20 May your soul rest in peace.
00:08:23 Goodbye, Pookie.
00:08:35 The Commissioner's been
00:08:37 Washington is blaming us for losing
00:08:43 Not to mention all the cops
00:08:47 The operation was a failure.
00:08:50 We didn't arrest anyone.
00:08:53 We didn't get any evidence. Nothing.
00:08:58 We still could be out there
00:09:01 ...except for two things:
00:09:07 I gambled on you,
00:09:11 Fuck that!
00:09:13 That's enough, man!
00:09:16 I'm sorry you lost your budget.
00:09:24 Let it go.
00:09:25 Operation's over.
00:09:32 It's over.
00:09:36 It ain't over.
00:09:43 Operation's gone...
00:09:45 ...Nino's loose, Pookie is dead.
00:09:48 I got Pookie killed.
00:09:50 Cut out this self-pitying shit
00:09:54 If anyone killed him it was me.
00:09:57 How you going to tell me
00:10:03 Do you remember
00:10:07 When what the hell was I doing
00:10:14 I used to be Pookie.
00:10:16 How the hell you used to be Pookie?
00:10:19 I was a poor white-trash Pookie.
00:10:21 This whole drug shit, it's not
00:10:26 It's a death thing.
00:10:32 You don't have to like me.
00:10:34 I don't even know if I like you.
00:10:39 But we're in this together now, partner.
00:10:42 You know, a drug dealer
00:10:48 He won't sell it to his sister.
00:10:51 But he'll sell it
00:10:55 I don't know about you...
00:10:58 ...but I'm ready to kill Nino Brown.
00:11:01 Are you with me?
00:11:04 I'm ahead of you.
00:11:20 Behind door number 1,

00:11:43 My cugino and his friend are hungry.
00:11:47 And I got a feeling
00:11:50 ...than any Peruvian.
00:11:52 Enough to maybe throw in
00:11:59 If I swim with this offer...
00:12:00 You wanted to meet the main man, that's
00:12:05 ...and me only.
00:12:22 You will cut me a side deal.
00:12:25 20 percent.
00:12:27 And you will be obligated
00:12:30 ...and me only.
00:12:33 Give me your number.
00:13:01 Don Armeteo.
00:13:03 Nino is about to itch.
00:13:08 - What the fuck is up?
00:13:13 Check!
00:13:22 Can I help you?
00:13:23 I'm here to see Gee Money.
00:13:26 - What's up with these elbows?
00:13:28 I don't know you.
00:13:30 You know him?
00:13:32 Hold up. I know him. He's cool.
00:13:35 Ease back, playboy. Ease back.
00:13:38 How you feeling, Gee Money, my man?

00:13:48 Pat him down.
00:13:50 Pat him down!
00:13:53 It's like that?
00:13:57 What the fuck is this?
00:13:58 I don't know you, that's what.
00:14:01 I know you're my man's new contact...
00:14:04 ...but I don't trust you.
00:14:06 So since you're interrupting my game,
00:14:14 Mr. Money?
00:14:15 Please escort Mr. Washington
00:14:19 And if this dreadlocked
00:14:22 ...you lullaby his ass.
00:14:30 Don't forget what we talked about
00:14:33 I'm definitely going to be
00:14:37 Yo, Keish, I seen that boy
00:14:45 That's right, I checked him out myself.
00:14:49 And the product is 60% cheaper
00:14:54 That will free up
00:14:57 ... to do a lot of other things.
00:15:00 Like, maybe take over
00:15:03 All right, let's roll with it.
00:15:05 We build and get stronger.
00:15:08 Most definite. Most definite.
00:15:10 Money, I'll tell you something.
00:15:12 If he's not who he says he is...
00:15:15 ...l'll kill him.
00:15:17 Then I'll kill you.
00:15:24 I don't trust Mr. Washington. So I want
00:15:32 When I was young, I was a member
00:15:35 - Lennox Ave.
00:15:38 The leader, Jughead, told me to prove
00:15:44 It was like, "No problem."
00:15:46 I said, "An enemy?"
00:15:50 "It's got to be an ordinary mo."
00:15:52 So I rode down to 23rd.
00:15:54 Copped me a bag of that
00:16:03 I got so zooted.
00:16:07 I walked up on this lady. She must have
00:16:11 I was so fucking crazy, man,

00:16:23 I didn't even stay to see her body drop.
00:16:25 I just ran.
00:16:30 You must think I'm a demon.
00:16:34 I guess what you was doing...
00:16:37 ...it was like business, right?
00:16:41 It wasn't personal.
00:16:43 My brother...
00:16:45 ...it's always business.
00:16:48 Never personal.
00:16:52 - Tell your moms I want some bean pies.
00:16:56 Come on in, little man.
00:17:02 Two for you.
00:17:09 Two for you.
00:17:13 - Hold up, pop.
