Promise me my family is gonna be safe.
I don't like making promises I can't keep.
Ahh! [GRUNTING]
[PAPA] The fuck you want?
I loved your father.
Like he was my own.
But he's not your father! He's mine.
[KENYA] Okay, I get that you're grieving,
but please don't make me feel like shit just because you do.
You know the last conversation
I had with my dad was about you?
He didn't think we should be together.
And now I see he was right.
I'm here to happily announce...
that I'll be moving to Los Angeles...
to do what I love, gaming.
Nice to meet you, Jemma.
- Are you signed? - Nah.
If you're gonna be independent, you're gonna need some support.
Is that what you wanna offer me?
Support?
If you talk to Nuck behind my back again, we done.
Somebody has to protect this family.
- That's what I'm doing. - I can't tell.
I hope you interrupted my lunch for a good reason.
I know who killed Uncle Q.

Zay found us a spot to wash our money.
[DOUDA CHUCKLES]

[DOUDA] What, nigga? Do you know how big this is?
Not as big as killing a nigga that was hurting our business.
No. Actually, that adds to my stress level.
[NUCK] How so?
Because now, people gonna start sniffing around.
- You gave the order, D. - [DOUDA] Yeah.
But if you had better negotiation skills,
we wouldn't have another motherfucking body

Cairo said it was gonna take a while.
But just remember
we further along now than we were before.
Tiff, we can't keep moving at this speed.
Baby, all we gotta do is keep selling Douda's weed
until we have enough of our own.
Then we can drop his ass.
Douda might not be around much longer.
What you mean?
[ROB] My mother loan. It came with strings.
[TIFF] What kind of strings, Rob?
She said we wouldn't have to pay the money back
as long as I get rid of the nigga that killed my uncle.
- Douda killed your uncle? - [ROB] Yes.
How you know?
I just do.
Why you just now telling me this?
[ROB] 'Cause that shit ain't had nothing to do with you.
That decision affects our family.
- You said you wanted the money. - Not at this cost.
Look, I told you ain't shit free.
We could've found another way, Rob.
Well, it's a little too late now.

I'd rather be here.
So you still mad at me?
I wasn't mad. I was hurting, and...
I took it out on you, and that's not cool.
So I'm sorry.
Thank you.
Did you want to go bowling next week?
I think they're having a tournament
and I thought maybe that could help you
take your mind off things.
When my dad was alive, we argued a lot,
and one of our last arguments was...
About me. I know.
We didn't find a middle ground when he was here,
so now that he's gone,
I wanna respect his side of things.
So what does this mean?
It means we can be cool, but nothing more than that.

Fuck.

[ROB GROANING]
[INDISTINCT RAP MUSIC PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]
Thank you.
For what?
For welcoming me into your family.
I don't know where I'd be if you weren't so patient with me.
Thank you for always pushing me to be better.
[LYNAE CHUCKLES] You're welcome.
[KEVIN CHUCKLES] Yeah.
I'll miss you.
[LYNAE] We got phones.
Yeah, but I'll miss hugging you.
And muffing you.
[KEVIN LAUGHS]
- Just come back and visit. - I will.

Oh, so that's how you feel, huh?
You just gon' leave me on read?
What are you talking about?
I send you a heartfelt text and you never replied.
I don't have a text message from you.
What?
It says it was delivered. Look.
- Fuck! - What?
I accidentally sent this to Deja.
Oh, God.
Oh, hell no. Gotta go.

[JEMMA CHUCKLES]
You still mad at me?
No. I'm good, actually.
Yeah, you seem to be in a better mood
since the last time I saw you.
I am getting my own place too.
- What? - [JEMMA LAUGHS]
Since when?
I came across some money
and I got enough to start apartment-hunting.
Where you get the money from?
What?
Where'd you get the money from?
[JAKE CHUCKLES SOFTLY] Let me guess.
Britney.
- How'd you know? - She tryna fuck you.
I asked her if that's what this is about, and she said no.
Of course she said no. She ain't dumb.
So you don't think she gave me the money
because she believes in my talents?
That's her money and she's now your pimp.
Fuck you.
[JAKE] I'm just being honest.
Well, you're being an asshole.
- Fine. I won't say shit. - [JEMMA] Great.
[GLASS CLINKING]
I just want to thank everybody for coming out.
I'm gonna remember this night forever.
For real.
Um...
I don't know where I'd be without y'all.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
I also want to take a second
to acknowledge the ones we lost along the way.
I know Pastor Jackson would be here right now
if he was still with us.
I know he's here in spirit.
And I may not have listened to everybody's advice...
[SCATTERED LAUGHTER]
But eventually, I learned my lesson.
Thank you for letting me find my way.
Even if I made you nervous.
Thank you for always letting me be myself.
And to my friends...
thank you for always standing with me.
Through everything.
To my family.
Thank you for always lifting me up.
You know I'm forever grateful for Chicago.
Made me who I am.
And I promise...
I promise to go out there and make y'all proud.
[PERSON] We already proud of you, boy.

[INDISTINCT SPEECH OVER PA]
So you're why he needed the money.
We were trying to start a business.
[ALICIA SCOFFS]
We wanted to get away from Douda.
My son has never had any desire to start his own business.
He believed in me.
He believed in what we could build.
How dare you speak of my son in the past tense
like he's already gone.
You have life insurance on him?
What?
Are you crazy? No!
I have to ask.
This is your fault.
- [ALICIA] Excuse me? - He told me about your deal.
I think this happened because of what you asked him to do.
I don't know what you're talking about.
He told me.
I don't know what he told you,
but I would never put my own child in danger.
I think you should leave.
I'm not leaving him.
I'm his family and you some hussy that he lives with.
Nurse, I want her to be removed from my son's room.
- What? - Are you his spouse?
- Yes, I am. - She's lying.
[NURSE] If you're not his spouse or a blood relative,
you will have to leave.
How dare you tell that bitch about our agreement?
Have you forgotten?
We never reveal information about a hit outside the family,
and she will be the first person on the witness stand
if the FBI comes around.
I need you to wake up!
So I can put my foot in your ass.
[TENSE MUSIC]
'Cause this can't never happen again, you hear me?
- Got you. - Where were you?
My phone died.
- And that's why you left your post? - I was off.
Nigga, you ain't never off.
Wh-what happened?
You got a lot of learning to do, boy.
Hope it was good, nigga.
- What the fuck happened? - [EMMETT] Rob had him, man.
- Nigga, what? - The gun jammed.
How's he doing?
They said the surgery went well,
but he-he hasn't woken up yet.
Fuck.
I think he gon' be a'ight.
And what if he's not, nigga? Hmm?
I told you niggas not to do this shit, bro.
Somebody had to do something.
So baby, what I'm trying to tell you is if you can just...
understand where I'm coming from.
A'ight, bet.
Deja, baby?
Deja?
[SOMBER MUSIC]
- Fuck. - [PHONE BUZZES]
[NOTIFICATION CHIMES]
Oh, fuck!
[CAR HORN HONKING IN DISTANCE]
What the fuck? Coogie?
I never needed you to avenge my death.
I had to.
And it didn't make you feel better, did it?
No.
I know you're haunted by it.
I'm-I'm tryna do better.
I just... I don't know.
I don't want you to die for me, Bakari.
I want you to live the life that I couldn't.
[TRAIN RUMBLING IN DISTANCE]
[SOMBER MUSIC]
- [FATIMA] How's Rob? - He ain't talking.
Where are you going?
Gonna handle some business.
You're not leaving this house.
- Not now. - Victor, what are you gonna do?
Finish the job?
If I don't do something to stop this,
I don't know how many more bodies will drop, okay?
- This isn't your fight. - Don't worry.
Look, you can't keep trying to save everybody,
especially when you have family
right here at home who needs you!
You're right.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
[VICTOR SIGHS]
Look, I'ma...
I just need to take a shower and just clear my head.
Mm.
Okay? I'm sorry.
Okay.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
Okay. I love you.
I love you too.
