00:30Previously on Ghost.
00:31Dirty cop beat up Diana.
00:32She lost our baby.
00:33Well, I'm supposed to just snort a few lines and get the fuck over it like you always do,
00:34right?
00:35Do you think L's still mad?
00:36What are you doing?
00:37Yeah, I'll two niggas fire her.
00:38Wow, is this a help?
00:39It was a group decision.
00:40War bureaucrats don't exactly advertise.
00:41It's going to take me some time to find a new one.
00:42Time I don't have.
00:43You need citizenship to make you legit, so marry me.
00:44I don't know what you're talking about.
00:45I don't know what you're talking about.
00:46I don't know what you're talking about.
00:47I don't know what you're talking about.
00:48I don't know what you're talking about.
00:49I don't know what you're talking about.
00:51Please don't act like you care about me.
00:52You know I fucking care about you.
00:53Hey!
00:54How are we killing this bitch?
00:55Killing a cop ain't the way out.
00:56Let me handle my people my way.
00:57I know what you're dealing with, but she can't kill a cop.
00:58You're right.
00:59That bitch is mine.
01:00Let's just calm down and talk about it.
01:01Oh!
01:02I'm sorry.
01:03I'm sorry.
01:04I'm sorry.
01:05I'm sorry.
01:06I'm sorry.
01:07I'm sorry.
01:08I'm sorry.
01:09I'm sorry.
01:10I'm sorry.
01:11I'm sorry.
01:12I'm sorry.
01:13I'm sorry.
01:14I'm sorry.
01:15I'm sorry.
01:16I'm sorry.
01:17I'm sorry.
01:18I'm sorry.
01:19Do you like bedtime stories?
01:24Yeah.
01:25This is so fucked up.
01:26You gotta get the fuck out of here, now.
01:29Hands up.
01:30You give me the leverage I need to go against Noma.
01:34And maybe I change this murder to a fucking accident.
01:37Welcome to the fucking team, Tariq.
01:49I never took a straight path nowhere.
02:07Life's full of twists and turns, bumps and bruises.
02:09I live, I learn.
02:10I'm from that city full of yellow cabs and skyscrapers.
02:13It's hard to get a start in these parts without paper, homie.
02:16I grew up in hell.
02:17A block away from heaven.
02:18That corner ain't 15 minutes.
02:20It move at seven.
02:21Pure snow.
02:22Bag it, then watch it go.
02:23Occupational options.
02:24Get some blow on some hoes.
02:26Shoot the ball or the strap.
02:27Learn the rap or the jack.
02:28Fuck it, man.
02:29In the meantime, go ahead and pump a pack.
02:31This my regal royal flow.
02:32My James Bond bounce.
02:34That 007.
02:35That's 62 on my count.
02:36I'm an undercover liar.
02:38I lie under the covers.
02:39Look a bitch in the eyes and tell her, baby, I love it.
02:41You're my inspiration.
02:43You're my motivation.
02:44You're the reason that I move it with no hesitation.
02:46They say this is a big, rich town.
02:49Yeah.
02:51I just come from the poorest part.
02:55Bright lights, city life.
02:56I gotta make it.
02:57This is where it goes down.
02:59Oh, yeah.
03:01I just happen to come up hot.
03:05Legal or illegal, baby, I gotta make it.
03:17Detective Felicia Marie Lewis.
03:25She was tough.
03:26She was fearless.
03:28But most of all, she was one of our own.
03:31Felicia was family.
03:34Her tragic death will undoubtedly leave a hole in our hearts.
03:39We're never prepared for a fatal car crash.
03:43Paramedics on the scene said she died on impact.
03:47Maybe she didn't feel any pain.
03:50At least that's what I hope.
03:53Let's use this as a reminder to stick together and never take for granted the time we have left on this earth.
04:04The union is setting up a fund for her little boy, Cole.
04:09I know you all want to contribute.
04:14To Felicia.
04:16To Felicia.
04:17Felicia.
04:18To Felicia.
04:29Yo.
04:33An accident.
04:35I know.
04:37What the fuck really happened?
04:42Nico, man, I know with what we do, it's natural to second-guess everything.
04:49But this appears to be exactly what it says on the report.
04:54A fucking car accident, man.
05:01I know you two were close.
05:05So I'm here if you want to talk, all right?
05:23Speak to Detective Carter?
05:25Nah, he's probably looking for some more shit for us to do.
05:28We need to get rid of this motherfucker.
05:30I mean, wipe his ass off the face of the fucking earth.
05:33Any nigga put a gun to my head don't deserve to live.
05:35Shit, you think I don't know?
05:36I could face life in a fucking prison if this motherfucker decides to make me an accessory to this fucking cop's murder.
05:41Yeah, man.
05:43I still can't believe this shit, man.
05:45You know, baby girl ain't baby girl no more.
05:47This fucking shit is stressing her out.
05:48It's fucking with her head, you know?
05:49She gotta move past regret.
05:50It's for civilians.
05:51Well, fuck all that.
05:52What we doing?
05:53We need to get on this nigga's ass ASAP.
05:54I mean, look.
05:55We gotta give the nigga what the fuck he wants.
05:57NOMA.
05:58On the platter.
05:59Aw, man, that's gonna make us weak.
06:00If we give him leverage on NOMA, what's gonna stop that bitch from wanting to kill us?
06:03Wait, what about Drew?
06:04Hell no.
06:05He'll work with us, no?
06:06Drew called Carter to Felicia's house.
06:07Shh.
06:08He's upped this motherfucker's ass like a fucking lapdog, working his own agenda.
06:11Okay, so here's what we do.
06:13We tell Carter that we're working on a leverage piece with NOMA.
06:16Meanwhile, we weaponize NOMA, make it seem like everything's gonna be blown up on her end, and make her take out Carter.
06:21Oh, this bitch again.
06:22We gotta go back and beg fucking NOMA for help.
06:25Listen, we gotta kiss her ass and get this nigga off of our ass.
06:27All right?
06:29I mean, they're opposites.
06:30Who the fuck else is better than when you're going against the craziest, most psychotic, corrupt cop in the fucking city?
06:35Yeah, you're fucking right.
06:36You're right, man.
06:37Shit.
06:41What is this place?
06:42This is Fourth Circle.
06:44Used to be Zion's spot.
06:46It's a dealer's playground, no cops welcome.
06:49That's why we can't use the main entrance.
06:52You're gonna be overseeing the venue and the revenue like Zion did.
06:56But first, we got some people that want to welcome you to the organization.
07:11Gentlemen, this here is Drew Tejada.
07:15You got any questions before you come to me or Nico?
07:18This who you talk to.
07:20What's up?
07:27I was looking at the syllabus...
07:29What happened to the whole Apex Ted Talk?
07:31Vertical control reigning supreme.
07:34You know, that shit's gonna be hard now that this motherfucker that thinks he's Denzel from training day is in the way.
07:38Carter is a cop, Rick.
07:40The head of a drug task force.
07:42Okay?
07:43There's a thousand ways this can go left, leaving us royally fucked.
07:45Sounds like you don't got my back, nigga.
07:47No, I just don't want a preemptive strike.
07:49Or to start a war with motherfuckers that we can't win against.
07:52You know what a task force stands for.
07:54Gang. Thugs with badges.
07:56Remember that whole Tyree-Nickel shit?
07:58They'll let those motherfuckers get away with a hundred murders before they stop them.
08:01Yeah, and eventually they're gonna kill our fucking asses.
08:03So that means we gotta take them out before they kill us. Simple as that.
08:05Yeah, no, no. Simple as that.
08:07No, Rick.
08:09Hey, come the fuck on, bro.
08:11This motherfucker has hella shit on me. I have nothing on him.
08:14And now that he thinks I work for him, backing down is not an option.
08:18Where you going anyway? You packing your shit up?
08:21I'm moving out. Finally.
08:23Okay.
08:24I'm gonna see if Ellen wants to move in with me.
08:26Wait, why?
08:27What do you mean why? Because she's my girl and I love her. That's why.
08:31What the fuck is so funny?
08:33You're really fucking losing it, huh? Do you hear yourself?
08:35Yeah.
08:36You love her? You don't even know this girl.
08:38And didn't the band just fucking walk out on us?
08:40In fact, I do know her, and I'll get the band back.
08:43In the meantime, I got all the IVs and the knock-off course-correct business from Effie.
08:48What the fuck are you doing?
08:49How? How did you do that?
08:51For once, I would just love for you to say thank you, Brayden.
08:54You're killing it, Brayden. Good job, Brayden.
08:57You do a lot of things without thinking it through, all right?
08:59And you've been doing it a lot lately, so I'm just wondering.
09:02Yeah, that's fine. Well, I'm moving fast and smart, and shit's working.
09:06I know what the fuck I'm doing, Rick, okay?
09:19Detective Carter knows who you are, and he's after you.
09:22Basically, how this motherfucker operates,
09:24he doesn't like people doing business without being under his thumb,
09:26so that's an issue for you.
09:28I can solve it. I can get rid of him.
09:30What's in it for you?
09:31Tariq scam Patrick?
09:32You know your ass always got a mangle.
09:34You're always asking the wrong shit, King.
09:35There's something in it for all of us, all right?
09:37I mean, which one of us in this room really need this NYPD-ass nigga disrupting our shit?
09:41What hard evidence does this cop have on me?
09:44Yeah, playboy.
09:45And how exactly are we supposed to do this?
09:47Because killing the cop ain't easy.
09:48I mean, I don't think we have a choice.
09:50Bro, the nigga's corrupt, all right?
09:52He can create fake evidence against us.
09:53He can create cases on us.
09:55He can do whatever the fuck he wants, basically.
09:57I mean, is that a chance I want to take?
09:59Well, you didn't answer my question.
10:01What does he know about my organizations?
10:03Be specific.
10:04Look, fuck all this back-and-forth bullshit.
10:06Now, we're giving you top shelter,
10:08but we're also giving you a chance to prove yourself.
10:11Back-and-forth bullshit.
10:13Now, we're giving you top-shelf information.
10:15We can map out a plan now and get back to the details later.
10:18Now, you in or not?
10:20Yeah, basically, what we're saying is that
10:22it's only a matter of time before this nigga starts lowering the hammer on you.
10:25I'm not interested in going to war with the NYPD-fucking-D.
10:29Fuck it, I'm out of here.
10:30I told you this was gonna be some bullshit.
10:32And your ass is so fucking pussy,
10:34were you just gonna let this bitch get you killed?
10:36Ah, now that's not language I'd expect from my mom.
10:40Mom, bitch, what the fuck you say?
10:42What, didn't Cain tell you?
10:44Oh, we're gonna be family now.
10:46Cain's my business partner and...
10:48Beyoncé.
10:52Yeah, Mom, you're hearing right.
10:54Norma and I are getting married.
10:56Wedding, pastor, the whole works.
10:58Your invitation's in the mail, though.
11:00Cain, this fucking bitch has got you going crazy.
11:03The fuck is this?
11:04Love, of course.
11:05Bullshit.
11:06Word.
11:07Good luck with your fucking stupid-ass love.
11:10Ta-da!
11:11Well, you two now are on Detective Carter's radar.
11:15This little love bullshit you got going on just doubled your profit.
11:27Listen, we got leverage.
11:30We both know Detective Carter's dirty.
11:32Nah, that's not close enough.
11:34Find out what Carter really knows about me
11:36and how the fuck he got my name.
11:47There's something wrong with Elle.
11:48What? What the fuck happened?
11:49She was doing coke and then she said she wasn't feeling so hot.
11:51And the next thing you know, she just fucking passed out.
11:53Look, there are drugs all over this fucking floor.
11:55Who gave her the coke? Shut the fuck up!
11:56How would I know?
11:57Because she has sickles down. Call 911.
11:59I didn't want to do that.
12:00Fucking call!
12:05All right, FYI.
12:07I'm charging extra for this house call.
12:10I have all the documents you requested.
12:14Living will and bank statements.
12:16Tax filings.
12:18Prenup agreement.
12:19So, are you going on the run or getting married?
12:24The second one.
12:26I was talking to the lady, my guy.
12:28No, it's true.
12:29Kane and I are getting married
12:32and everything needs to be airtight
12:34so it holds up against government scrutiny.
12:36ICE and the like.
12:38Wow, marrying a drug dealer.
12:40Sounds like something you might have wanted to run by
12:42your extremely smart lawyer first.
12:45Given Wiley Adams' untimely demise,
12:47this had to be done.
12:49There was no need to consult me.
12:51Yeah, so it seems like your work here is done.
12:53Fake-ass, shiny cocksucker.
12:55I got your text. What's up?
12:58Hey, whatever freak shit y'all got going on,
13:00I'm into that.
13:01I second that emotion.
13:03Sip.
13:06We need your computer expertise.
13:09I'm marrying Kane.
13:13He did a decent job, didn't he?
13:16This ring weighs an absolute ton.
13:18She's fucking with you.
13:20It's marriage for hire, strictly business.
13:22Well, it's more like business with benefits, right love?
13:25Anyway, our nuptials need to appear rock solid
13:28so any dalliance between you two is now over.
13:31Oh yeah, you got it. That's done.
13:35Can I go now?
13:36No, sweetie.
13:37Kane's a caveman.
13:39He has no social media footprint.
13:41I need you to create one for him
13:43so he looks legitimate as my husband.
13:45I'm thinking a LinkedIn page,
13:47an employee profile at my company,
13:50maybe a college profile actually,
13:53and some happy couple photos on IG,
13:56you know, that sort of thing.
13:57Kane with a college profile.
14:00Make sure that shit is community college.
14:02Fuck you.
14:03Fuck you back.
14:04This needs to look real.
14:06You can do this, yes?
14:07I can do my best, but I'm not a wizard.
14:10Somebody looks hard enough,
14:11they can find what they're looking for.
14:12Well, that sounds like a personal problem.
14:14You're on payroll,
14:15so it'll be your job to cover your tracks then.
14:18Let's get this show on the road, shall we?
14:25Look, F...
14:26It's business, I got it.
14:27There's nothing to talk about.
14:29Come on, honey.
14:30What's the point of pillow talk
14:32if you're not going to talk?
14:34Well, he came up with a solution.
14:36Yeah.
14:37I, uh, I make him the American face of my subsidiary
14:42so that I can get the U.S. contracts pronto,
14:45and then the marriage and the prenup
14:47protect my assets until I become a citizen.
14:49I mean, that's the plan.
14:52Well, you probably would have come up with it yourself
14:54if you weren't in the midst of your own divorce.
14:56Oh, well, thank you for reminding me, okay?
14:58I thought that, uh, we had an understanding
15:01as growing business partners.
15:03Partners?
15:04Yes.
15:05I understand your practice is underwater
15:08and you see me as a meal ticket,
15:10but don't be silly, Davis.
15:11Like my tongue game?
15:12I wouldn't underestimate my comeback game.
15:15Despite your tongue game,
15:17our relationship has limitations, love.
15:20Besides, you know I'm more of a one-woman show.
15:33Why the fuck they trying to hurry up and get married?
15:35This shit is stupid, man.
15:36Yeah, I'm just as shocked as you are.
15:39But why do we need to know the why?
15:41To take down Carter.
15:43Try to get Norman to do it, but she ain't bite.
15:45So we got to give all the leverage
15:46that we got on Norman to Carter.
15:48Get him off our back so we can figure out our next move.
15:50That's where you come.
15:52Norman's my client.
15:53Nigga, you trying to protect this bitch
15:54when I gave you the inside job order.
15:57The fuck?
15:58The allegiance is with me.
16:00Okay, and did this bitch even consult to you
16:02about marrying Kane?
16:03She's not in it for you.
16:04She's in it for herself.
16:05No, no, nigga, you need to calm the fuck down.
16:08Any pertinent information I give you
16:09means I'm compromising all business dealings with Norma
16:12if she were ever to find out I told you.
16:15I mean, you all preach about allegiance.
16:18Well, Mr. Ravemakeover is going to need some in return.
16:21Sure, if you want to end up like Obi.
16:23That's what allegiance with Norma gets you,
16:24a nice to the fucking neck.
16:25I don't think I get it.
16:27She's a shifty bitch.
16:29I mean, you two aren't any better.
16:31With that being said, my allegiance is with you.
16:35Well, then tell us what the fuck is up,
16:36because you clearly know what this sneaky bitch is up to.
16:40Never forget who came through for you during clutch time.
16:43Who always comes through for both your asses.
16:46Yes, of course.
16:59Right now, this is what matters to Norma.
17:01Aircraft Global.
17:03The fuck is this?
17:05It's her front business.
17:06It washes her drug money,
17:08but she's under too much scrutiny in Europe.
17:10So in order to secure a contract to sell her jet engine parts
17:13to the U.S. government,
17:14Aircraft Global must be owned by an American citizen.
17:17Kane.
17:18Exactly.
17:19The marriage will allow Norma to become naturalized.
17:22The prenup will protect her assets
17:23until she can reclaim her company.
17:25So basically, Kane is just a straw man.
17:27Essentially.
17:28And a dumbass.
17:29Yeah.
17:30After Wiley Adams was murdered by Zion's crew,
17:33I had to find her a new government contact to bribe.
17:36That person is Sterling Reynolds.
17:38Muckety-muck in the State Commerce Department.
17:41Float that name by Carter.
17:43He'll have all the leverage he needs.
17:45All right, Ben.
17:46Ben.
17:47Got to split, Davis.
17:48Appreciate you.
17:50As always.
17:57Wow!
17:58Wow!
17:59Wow!
18:00Wow!
18:01Wow!
18:02Wow!
18:03Wow!
18:04Wow!
18:05Wow!
18:06Wow!
18:07Wow!
18:08Oh, my God!
18:09Oh, my God!
18:10You have to be kidding!
18:16How'd you find me here, man?
18:17Come on, baby.
18:18I been here.
18:19You're the one that's brand new and shit.
18:20I'm hearing you the man around here.
18:23I'm just hoping you're not getting too caught up Carter's ass.
18:27Nigga, what do you want?
18:29Your flip-flopping ass was a soju phenomenal.
18:31I just want to make sure Betty Crocker
18:32ain't giving away all the fucking recipes.
18:33All right.
18:34So you're trying to get punched the fuck out of me?
18:35Only if you promise not to hit like a bitch.
18:38Noma don't mean shit to Carter.
18:40He can take out whomever he wants
18:43at whatever time he wants.
18:45So you've been drinking the Kool-Aid?
18:47Better than drinking Noma's stank-ass bathwater.
18:49I mean, nigga, really?
18:50Working for Noma?
18:51Working with a dirty-ass cop?
18:53Come on, bro.
18:55You're doing anything to try to compete with me.
18:56When will you realize you're never going to be me?
19:01Good luck, man.
19:02Let's see how long this works out for you.
19:03Let's see how long marrying your boss works out for you.
19:09Monet told me that Noma's marrying to help.
19:13You're a step above a poor boy.
19:15Don't give a fuck about you.
19:16You're another fall guy for her.
19:18Hold on, bro.
19:19You can't see that.
19:22No, no, no.
19:24No, you can't.
19:26Oh, my bad.
19:29Come back and have a drink with your brother sometime.
19:33Oh, my God.
19:34So you're marrying a thug half your age?
19:37How lovely.
19:39When's the wedding?
19:40Soon.
19:41But like I told you, dear, it's not for love.
19:42It's for business purposes.
19:44You fled Europe and my father was shot in the head.
19:46Still not clear on why.
19:48You don't want me hanging around Tariq St. Patrick,
19:50whose father was a drug kingpin,
19:52and now you're marrying Kane for business.
19:55Did you know, when you hired him for your company,
19:58that he had an arrest record for battery and theft?
20:01You can't judge people by their past, Anya.
20:03Are you kidding?
20:04That's literally what we've done our entire lives.
20:07Well, on paper, Kane may not look like much,
20:09but he has a very sharp mind.
20:11Oh, wow.
20:12Mom, the D must be really good.
20:14Excuse me?
20:14Look, I want to know the truth.
20:16I am tired of being spoon-fed crap, okay?
20:20Are the police after you?
20:23First of all, I don't want you to worry, okay?
20:26No one's after me.
20:27How do you make your money, Mom?
20:28Really?
20:29Anya, you don't want to hear about
20:30a bunch of complicated, boring, corporate divas?
20:33Yes, I do, Mom.
20:34Like, my brain can handle it.
20:48Okay, then.
20:50I'm betraying your father by telling you this,
20:52but you've given me no choice,
20:55and I imagine it's time.
20:58Your dad was a drug trafficker, Anya.
21:01Yeah.
21:02I didn't know that's what he was into when I met him.
21:06He never wanted you to know
21:08because he wanted to protect you
21:10from a very dangerous life,
21:11which is why you've always lived in estates
21:14while we were in Europe.
21:16But this is why I had to leave him.
21:22Dad was a criminal.
21:23Dad was a criminal?
21:27Sweetheart.
21:31I hated what he was doing.
21:34The lives he was ruining peddling drugs.
21:37And that's why I made it my business to be legit.
21:42Okay?
21:44My connection to him may be why
21:46there might be some law enforcement interest in me,
21:49but you don't have to worry, okay?
21:52Sweetheart, don't worry.
21:54Oh, where did it go?
22:02Hey.
22:04I'm her boyfriend, Brayden.
22:06Look, I know I'm not immediate family, but-
22:07I don't care about that.
22:09I just want to make sure
22:09that you haven't taken what she's taken.
22:11Her lab results came back and indicate
22:12that the cocaine that she ingested was laced with fentanyl,
22:15which then sent her into cardiac arrest.
22:18Do you know where she got the drugs?
22:20No.
22:24Is she gonna live?
22:25Prognosis is uncertain as of yet,
22:26but I'll tell you one thing.
22:28If she was left alone, she'd be dead.
22:33You're welcome.
22:35♪♪♪♪
22:45♪♪♪♪
22:55Fuck it.
22:55♪♪♪♪
22:59These fucking cocksuckers.
23:01♪♪♪♪
23:14What the fuck happened?
23:15OD.
23:18I don't know if she's gonna make it.
23:23It's all good, bro. She'll be fine.
23:24She'll put through.
23:29That bitch is using you, boy.
23:31She's playing you for a damn fool.
23:33A sham marriage to that crooked bitch
23:34ain't gonna put you on top?
23:35Ma, whatever it is you think you know,
23:37it doesn't matter, all right?
23:38I'm with Noma now.
23:39She's gonna be my wife.
23:41So you're just gonna betray your mother for that bitch?
23:43Don't talk to me about betrayal.
23:44Detective Carter?
23:47Yeah, I knew he had a tie to working with him as a CI.
23:49And it was you.
23:50You really feeding this nigga information?
23:51You really snitching to Carter?
23:52Nah, King, that's not what it is.
23:54We didn't have a choice.
23:55Carter's making us work for him.
23:57And it ain't snitching if the motherfucker's a criminal, too.
24:00Plus, he sicked that fucking Felicia bitch on Diana
24:02who beat the baby out of her.
24:04Now, you good with all of that?
24:05Ma, miss me with all this family first shit, all right?
24:09You started this.
24:10You put Noma against Carter,
24:11you can go and damn near fuck around
24:12and get me and Drew killed in the middle of all this shit.
24:14Look, King, I'm trying to protect you both.
24:16Nah, you're just looking out for yourself, as usual.
24:18I know what's best.
24:20Can't you see that's the end game?
24:22I'm trying to free y'all
24:23from all these outside motherfuckers.
24:29Okay.
24:31Here's what I'm gonna do.
24:33You're gonna put on a smile.
24:35You're gonna go out there
24:36and get one of those ugly-ass mother of the groom dresses,
24:38and I'm gonna marry Noma.
24:39And I won't tell her that you're the one
24:40that raided her warehouse.
24:41I didn't fucking raid her.
24:42Stop fucking lying, all right?
24:43You think you're on the outside looking in,
24:45but Noma finds this out,
24:45you'll be stuck with Carter for the rest of your short life.
24:47Short?
24:48Yeah, or applying to be a fucking greeter at work.
24:49What you ever mean, motherfucker?
24:51Yeah, whatever.
24:52Pussy-whipped ass.
24:57Busy?
24:58Nah, my mom's was just leaving.
25:00Nigga, I thought you was getting married.
25:02Make sure you check on your sister.
25:04Yeah, all right.
25:05Don't forget to get that application.
25:10I love you.
25:33He's an orphan.
25:34I changed that little boy's life forever.
25:37Look, Dee, I understand feeling bad for the kid,
25:38but his mother was a killer.
25:42She was into some filthy shit
25:43that'll always come back on you.
25:46Look,
25:48you had no choice, all right?
25:50But I did.
25:52I didn't have to go to her house
25:53and trick Nott with her kid upstairs.
25:55But you didn't know, Dee.
25:58Listen, she took something special from you, from us.
26:04Okay, it was either you or her.
26:07You didn't do shit wrong.
26:10I shouldn't have to deal with this shit.
26:12I just want a normal life with a regular family
26:15so I could just, I don't know, do me.
26:19Sounds good, Dee boy.
26:22We gotta be realistic.
26:24That shit is damn near impossible for us.
26:31Well, at one point it was possible.
26:34And, I don't know, maybe,
26:40maybe it can happen again.
26:43You think so?
26:50Sure.
27:03Tariq, we don't need those.
27:05What do you mean, we don't need this?
27:07Is me getting pregnant again
27:08the worst thing that could happen?
27:17Eric.
27:19Dee, come the fuck on.
27:20How do you not understand?
27:22Forget it, Tariq.
27:33You know, I'm thinking,
27:35if we're gonna be one big old happy family,
27:38surely she'd get to know the man who's marrying my mom.
27:42Don't you think?
27:46So, who are you?
27:49Who pays for this amazing penthouse?
27:53I do.
27:54On a bar salary?
27:55I mean, that is what you do for work, right?
27:58Tips must be great.
28:00Man, make great investments.
28:02Oh, where did you learn how to do that?
28:05From your dad, who was in prison most of your life
28:08for dealing drugs?
28:09Is that what you and my mom have in common?
28:12I don't know.
28:14You tell me, since you seem to know everything.
28:16I mean, well, you're all taught a clan, right?
28:20Not to sound offensive or anything,
28:22but you guys are like the gaudies of the ghetto, no?
28:28Yo, we're entrepreneurs.
28:32Does my mom sell drugs?
28:34Your mom is a badass businesswoman.
28:36Something your little ass is striving to be more like
28:38instead of prying into grown folks' business.
28:40Grown folks.
28:42But here, take this, go shopping or brunch
28:46or make a TikTok or some shit.
28:54I won't be calling you daddy.
28:57We're here to bring you a gift.
28:58After that, we would like to be left the fuck alone.
29:01Oh, God, I just feel like I sound like a broken fucking record.
29:04You're not in charge, Red.
29:06Drew, I don't know how you fucking dealt with this as a child.
29:09What's the fucking gift?
29:12Sterling Reynolds.
29:13That's who Noma needs to bribe in order to get her
29:15government contract under control.
29:17Set her up using your high-tech toys, and you got her.
29:19Government contract?
29:22Yeah, I mean, I don't know what you're talking about.
29:24Government contract.
29:27So this Noma, she's playing the majors, yeah?
29:29Which means you'll have plenty on your hands
29:31trying to keep that bitch under control.
29:32So that's what you worry about, my work-life balance, Monet?
29:35I don't give a fuck.
29:36Monet's right.
29:38We got Noma.
29:39You don't need us.
29:41The fuck out of here.
29:43Not gonna happen.
29:44You stay ready. I'll let you know what's next.
29:46Let's go, Drew.
29:48Drew.
29:49Drew!
29:52Why you doing this?
29:54Why you acting like this?
29:55Ma, don't make it personal.
29:57Look, Drew, this is not what you want.
29:58This is not who you are.
30:00Answering to a fucking cop?
30:03I mean, reporting to him like he's your fucking boss
30:05or some shit? What are you doing?
30:07I make my own choices, Monet.
30:10You and Kane do not get to decide who I'm gonna be.
30:14And I had to call Carter and loop him in
30:16because if I didn't, his fucking task force
30:17would've hunted us down and killed us.
30:20I didn't betray this family, okay?
30:23I saved this fucking family, and you're fucking welcome.
30:25What about quitting the business?
30:27Your art?
30:29Maybe it wasn't about the business.
30:31Maybe it was just doing business with family.
30:33Chill the fuck out.
30:37Who the fuck is he to you?
30:39Your father's substitute?
30:41Are you fucking serious?
30:42I shouldn't need a fucking substitute.
30:46Look, I'm being trusted to handle
30:48some king-size shit right now, and I like it.
30:51So that's what it means to me.
30:53Look, you remember, it's still my blood
30:55that runs through your veins.
30:56You are a Tejada, no matter what.
31:09What?
31:12I know you said we didn't need to talk,
31:13but I'm here anyways, all right?
31:17I'm trying to secure my future the same way
31:18you're doing with yours.
31:19We had this argument before, and you said that already.
31:22Oh, wow.
31:23So not only do you do robot shit,
31:25but you're an actual robot.
31:26That's crazy.
31:29I'm working on Noma's assignment,
31:30and I have to get back to it, so.
31:32Congrats, by the way.
31:34Let me know where you register.
31:50Yo.
31:52Club's down, man.
31:54What the fuck you mean, club's down, man?
31:56Building got bought today.
31:59By who?
32:01Some very rich motherfucker
32:02who didn't want to be identified.
32:04Nigga, what the fuck are you talking about?
32:06Oh, I forgot.
32:08Somebody left you this.
32:50Yo, Reek, I need you.
32:52What's up?
32:53What's he brought out?
32:54Yeah.
32:55I used your phone to re-up with the dirtbag
32:57who sold her the tainted shit.
32:58You down to pay him a visit tonight?
33:00Shit, what you got in mind?
33:02I just want to scare the motherfucker.
33:04I bet.
33:05Let's play, motherfucker.
33:36Hey.
33:49This way.
34:02New owner's jacking up the rent
34:04like it's fifth half.
34:06So we might need to find a new spot.
34:08No sweat.
34:10I've already identified another building we can use.
34:13Good soldier never waits.
34:19So, Noma.
34:21I'm hearing she's making more moves.
34:24Yeah, I already got a plan for her.
34:26I think maybe we should hit harder.
34:29She's providing guns for the Italians in the Lower East now.
34:32You certain about this?
34:33Absolutely.
34:34She's taking over the cityhood by her.
34:36There couldn't be more violence.
34:39So how is this information useful?
34:43If I can't strike?
34:46She's got a gun shipment coming in tonight.
34:52My guys going to face any resistance?
34:55Nothing y'all can handle.
35:00So natural evil versus moral.
35:02Moral evil.
35:04Okay?
35:05An earthquake versus murder.
35:08In his writings,
35:10Nietzsche argues against the concept of evil altogether.
35:14Does that describe a moral reality?
35:18Well, Nietzsche said the wisest man
35:20would be able to categorize people by more than just good and evil.
35:23For me, having grown up in a religious household,
35:26the word gets thrown around too much.
35:28Think of how we use it to sell wars.
35:30The axis of evil.
35:31Or to excuse the mistreatment of others.
35:35Evildoers.
35:36So you agree with the notion that it's only used to demonize one's enemies?
35:40Most cases, yes.
35:42Um, Tariq?
35:44I think evil is real.
35:46I'll trust anyone that believes that there isn't any evil.
35:49They're probably evil themselves.
35:51Now to the opposing argument explored in the atrocity paradigm.
35:55Uh, Diana?
35:57No phone zone?
35:59Oh, sorry.
36:00Tell me what you thought about Card's argument.
36:07Um, sorry, what?
36:09It was the paper that I assigned you to read.
36:14Argue about why evil exists.
36:16Oh, right. Um...
36:19I think believing in the concept of evil
36:22just means acknowledging when someone has been treated unjustly.
36:26That's what makes all of us human.
36:30Hey. Thanks for having my back in that.
36:33Oh, yeah. No problem.
36:34But you know, if Mr. Simmons, he don't play, he'll fail you.
36:37Yeah?
36:38Oh, I heard about Elle. How's she doing?
36:41Touch and go.
36:42I'm still messed up about it, though, you know?
36:44I'm not a monster.
36:45I ain't trying to kill nobody.
36:46Girl, I know that.
36:48But look, um...
36:50I don't have anybody else to talk to, so can I ask you something?
36:53And this time, girl, please don't say no.
36:55Okay. I promise.
36:57What's up?
36:58You pregnant again?
37:00No, but...
37:02sometimes I feel like I want to be.
37:04I mean, that's normal after a miscarriage.
37:06Okay, well, is it normal for Howard and me and Tariq
37:08were kissing or whatever?
37:09I tried to stop her from using the condom.
37:11Girl, yeah.
37:12A lot of girls do that.
37:13They start trying right away for a replacement baby.
37:16Damn, I didn't know that.
37:18Well, you know what?
37:20I'm not gonna lie.
37:22Damn, I didn't know that.
37:24Well, actually, my mom got pregnant real quick
37:27after she gave up Zeke, so...
37:29Mm, so now you know how she felt.
37:31I mean, look.
37:33It's not like being a young mother
37:35wouldn't be the hardest job of your life.
37:37I mean, I got cousins who had babies as teenagers,
37:39and they can't go nowhere, can't have any dreams.
37:42Their lives just stopped.
37:44I'd say if you want the most for your life,
37:46just forget about Tariq and forget about
37:48any fairytale life that you had in your head
37:50and just focus on being a good student.
37:52Yeah.
37:56I'll see you.
37:57Hey, thanks.
38:09What the fuck are you doing here?
38:11Come on, it's a fancy school.
38:13Is that how they teach you to talk to your mother?
38:15Oh, that's what you're calling yourself?
38:16Josie, come on.
38:17Don't call me that. That's not my name.
38:19Give me a break. That's what I named you.
38:22Come on, you think I wanted to make a surprise visit here?
38:25You haven't been returning my calls.
38:32Richard left me
38:35for some young bimbo that works at the car company.
38:39And if I know you, you probably think I deserve it,
38:43but I'm really in a bad spot.
38:46I was hoping maybe,
38:48maybe you could float me some cash.
38:53The man that molested me left you.
38:56Sounds like a fucking you problem.
38:59For all my mistakes, you know,
39:01I could still be proud of my little girl.
39:05You come a long way, Josie.
39:10Sometimes it takes a lifetime
39:14to learn how to love.
39:16Look at you. I mean, you're making it big here at the Ivy League.
39:20Whose brains you think you got, huh?
39:22That's me inside your head.
39:24I'm doing things I never had a chance to do.
39:29The best thing you ever did was leave.
39:32I know that.
39:34And I'm really happy that you did.
39:38If you were on fire, I wouldn't piss on you to put you out.
39:42And if you were cold, I would never let you in.
39:45If I had every single dollar in the world,
39:48I wouldn't give you a motherfucking cent.
39:51Fuck you, Mom.
39:55There she is.
39:57The cold-hearted Josefina.
40:00You're a real bitch.
40:02How is anyone ever gonna love you?
40:05How is anyone ever gonna love you?
40:08Huh?
40:14We only bought her some time.
40:16Carter's still running shit.
40:18Yep. We gotta take that nigga out.
40:20Norma wanted to know Carter's plan to take her out.
40:23I think if we give her that,
40:25let her know that he was trying to set her up,
40:27I think we'll have that taken care of.
40:29She'll obviously have no choice but to...
40:31Fucking clap back at his ass.
40:33This is some cold shit, but it's gotta be done.
40:36It's our best play.
40:38Start a war between them, get them to fuck off our backs.
40:41Hundred percent.
40:47Go, go! I told you not to stop!
40:50Hands where I can fucking see them!
40:52Hands in the air, let's go! Stay where the fuck you're at!
40:54We got a man going around the back. Let's go!
40:57Where the fuck you going? Gun down.
41:01What the fuck do we have here?
41:10Who's gonna tell Norma this shit?
41:17This motherfucker.
41:19Too fucking far.
41:23I've been told
41:25you're the man to see when the mayor needs a favor.
41:28I've been told you're a woman who expects the same treatment.
41:33Good evening.
41:35Our feature tonight is a vintage Bordeaux from Puyac.
41:39May I oblige? Absolutely.
41:41Please.
41:49I'd like the U.S. government as a client,
41:52but the red tape feels insurmountable.
41:55It's not, if you know how to navigate it.
41:58Is that where you come in?
42:00If we can agree on how I can help.
42:04Please, be direct with me.
42:06Sorry I'm late.
42:08I hope I didn't miss the appetizers.
42:11No.
42:12Sterling. Davis.
42:14Thank you for taking this meeting, brother.
42:16Why is Davis in there? As you know...
42:18What the fuck is happening? Davis is my counselor.
42:21Yes, I never let my clients take a meeting alone.
42:24Sterling understands.
42:26He was a lawyer in a former life.
42:28Any starters for the table?
42:32Yes. Sterling, please. You go ahead.
42:36Fine.
42:38I'll get the fluke. Is that good?
42:41It's local.
42:43And I'm gonna go with the oysters.
42:46I guess I'll take octopus.
42:50Is that good?
42:54Fine.
42:56Ma'am, may I take your order next?
42:58No.
43:00It was a pleasure meeting you.
43:02I'm so sorry, but something's come up.
43:04Let's do this another time.
43:05Another time?
43:06Where the fuck is she going?
43:08What the fuck is happening?
43:19Nothing close to fucking cool.
43:21How'd you know about this?
43:23I got wind of it.
43:24From a source close to the task force.
43:26Fuck!
43:29Tariq and Monét warned me about this, Carter.
43:31Rare occasion when those two are right.
43:33Davis...
43:35I could lose everything.
43:36No, no, no, no, no, no.
43:38Not so fast, Drag Queen, okay?
43:39Look, you still got me on your side, okay?
43:42The question is...
43:44What are you gonna do about Carter?
43:47I just missed getting arrested for a federal crime by a hair.
43:51It's obvious, isn't it?
43:53I have to neutralize the motherfucker.
44:00It's Davis.
44:01This shit work like fucking clockwork.
44:02The cop stuff?
44:03Yeah.
44:04I'm just gonna take out Detective Carter so he can get his boot off our fucking necks.
44:10Nigga, are you high?
44:12I took a mini bump to take the edge off.
44:13Take the edge off?
44:14That shit don't take no edge off for you.
44:16The other day he was on the stage looking like Jonah Hill from fucking Wolf of Wall Street.
44:19Can you trust me for once?
44:21I'm good, Reek.
44:22Yeah, we'll see.
44:24Come on.
44:30Thanks for inviting us over. You must be Steve, you piece of shit.
44:32Who the fuck are you?
44:33Where the hell's Elle?
44:34Elle's in the hospital fighting for her life.
44:36So she sent us.
44:37You can't just go...
44:39This is my operation.
44:40You like lacing your shit, Steve?
44:42Wait, wait, wait. Are you guys undercover or some shit?
44:44Because if she had a bad reaction, it'd be the tip.
44:46This nigga's lying.
44:48Then take it.
44:50What?
44:51Do a line.
44:52If your shit isn't laced, it shouldn't be a fucking problem.
44:54Fucking go. Do a line.
44:56Let's go. Come on.
44:58Let's go. Do another one.
45:00Do it.
45:02You happy, you crazy fuck?
45:03No, I'm not happy.
45:04Do a fucking another one.
45:05All right, be all right, be all right. That's enough.
45:07You fucking acting crazy. You're supposed to be scared of this.
45:09That's what the fuck I'm doing.
45:10Then fucking kill him.
45:11What the fuck do I care?
45:12If it was your girl, you'd do the same.
45:14Let's fucking go. Do another one.
45:16Let's go. Do another one.
45:17What the fuck are you doing?
45:21Look at this shit, bro.
45:28B, what the fuck are you doing?
45:30Are you fucking crazy?
45:31Can you not think straight, bro? What the fuck?
45:33Help me get the fucking body.
45:34B, this is not supposed to work out like this.
45:36What? You're the only person that can get revenge, not me.
45:38It doesn't work like this, motherfucker. Look at you.
45:40What the fuck? This is messy. This is how we get caught.
45:42Let's go. Get a fucking rag.
45:45Fuck.
45:46Come on, come on, come on. Get out of here.
45:48Get out of here.
45:50Come the fuck on.
45:57Let's go.
45:58Shit.
46:06You better not be made a fool.
46:08Come on, can you have some confidence in your man?
46:12There he is.
46:13Look, this is the guy.
46:14Monet and Tariq said it's Carter's right hand.
46:17He knows where the bodies are buried.
46:19And they said he's for sale.
46:21All you gotta do is make him an offer.
46:23Better than Carter's, and we're good.
46:33We know your operation.
46:35You've been taking cuts from drug dealers.
46:38Detective Carter's human war.
46:40Where's my 50K for this meeting?
46:46Once you agree to turn on Carter and report him to your superiors,
46:49you'll get another 500K.
46:51Nah, that's fucking chump change.
46:53The Reach is global, right?
46:55So that's not nearly enough.
46:58What do you have in mind?
46:59Seven figures up front and ongoing payment.
47:02Hey, baby.
47:04Ain't that a bitch?
47:06Greetings, motherfucker.
47:11I could not believe when the hospital called.
47:14Believe it.
47:16You won't be getting rid of me.
47:18Did I scare you?
47:21I thought I lost you.
47:23Oh, here is your phone back.
47:28All I remember is, this gets me in trouble.
47:33Easy access.
47:34I don't want any more of that tainted shit ever again.
47:39You don't have to worry about that anymore, because I took care of it.
47:43What do you mean?
47:44He's never gonna sell you bad shit ever again.
47:47Or anyone else.
47:52Braden, I hope...
47:55You didn't...
47:58That's my job, to protect you.
48:00He almost fucking killed you.
48:01Fuck that guy.
48:02But he didn't.
48:03I'm still here.
48:05I didn't want that.
48:06Braden, that's not my idea of love.
48:08It's okay.
48:09No one's gonna find out.
48:10If battling an illness my entire life has taught me anything,
48:13it's that life itself is precious.
48:19I...
48:20I can't...
48:21I can't have this kind of guilt.
48:25You can go now, please.
48:33Denise, I got this.
48:35You gotta trust me.
48:38You on the phone?
48:40No.
48:44I thought I saw you talking to somebody.
48:46No, what's up?
48:49You're not gonna fucking believe this.
48:51Noma tried to flip me.
48:55You gotta be fucking kidding me.
48:57This bitch, she's got it.
48:59You gotta be fucking kidding me.
49:01This bitch.
49:02How'd she find you?
49:03I don't fucking know.
49:04You know that shit ain't happening, though.
49:06Yeah.
49:08What'd she offer you?
49:10A lot of money.
49:13I didn't take anything.
49:19So how do you wanna handle this?
49:24Agree to the deal.
49:25With the caveat that you must meet in person for the first payment.
49:29Alone.
49:30Cool?
49:32Yeah, gotcha.
49:38I'm putting the finishing touches on your social media.
49:40I just need you to look at them.
49:44I have backdated your post.
49:46I just need a professional picture for your work history,
49:48and then you can let me know what you think about it when it's done.
49:52I don't care about this shit.
49:54I don't care about this shit.
49:55I don't care about you, Effie.
49:58What am I supposed to say to that, Kane?
50:00I don't know, maybe show me you have a fucking post?
50:02A post.
50:03A fucking post.
50:04Why the fuck does everybody say that?
50:05You should've told me.
50:06Why didn't you?
50:07I didn't know she was gonna wave the ring in your fucking face.
50:09Listen, she's just trying to make it seem like something that it's not.
50:12That's not what I asked you.
50:14It's business.
50:18There we go.
50:19I can deal with that.
50:21But we were supposed to be friends,
50:22and you were supposed to have my back.
50:23And for a minute,
50:25I thought you were the one person that understood me.
50:27I do.
50:28You don't.
50:29And that's been the problem my entire fucking life.
50:32Effie is always looking out for Effie.
50:33What happened to you?
50:34Do this one thing for Noma and you're off the hook.
50:37I don't get why it feels like I'm always being backed into a fucking corner,
50:41where I gotta prove how I feel.
50:44You're the one that's leaving to go do some robot shit with some lame-ass nigga.
50:47No, don't do that.
50:48That's a cop-out and you know it.
50:50I got you.
50:52All right? No matter what, I got you.
50:57That's all I ask.
51:04Can you show me my page that you created?
51:07I don't know.
51:13I don't know.
51:16I don't know.
51:17I don't know.
51:37Detective Carter.
51:40What an unexpected pleasure.
51:43Nico couldn't make it, so
51:45he stuck with me.
51:48I've been riding with Nico for as long as I can remember,
51:51so what you did is a serious violation.
51:56Where I'm from, that requires consequences.
52:02One can respect that.
52:04But when you're surrounded by enemies,
52:06you resort to whatever weapons you have handy.
52:09Enemies?
52:10Yeah.
52:11Tariq St. Patrick and Malia Tejada said you're after me.
52:14An unfamiliar face.
52:17Wanted to know what you were about.
52:19Yeah, they didn't put it so kindly.
52:23That's ironic.
52:24They said some unflattering things about you as well.
52:28Like you planning to bribe a government official.
52:32Is that what they told you?
52:33Mm-hmm.
52:39Common enemy?
52:43Why not common goal?
52:48I'm listening.
52:50I don't want any more trouble from the NYPD
52:53and your illustrious task force.
52:56You've been using the people who work for me.
52:59Why not work with me and cut out the annoying middle bitches?
53:02I can offer you so much more.
53:06And I'm sure there's so many things you can do for me.
53:18Love me.
53:19Hate me.
53:21Running.
53:22Chase me.
53:24Plotting.
53:25Betray me.
53:27Just waiting.
53:28To get me.
53:29Gotta chase me.
53:31Gotta chase me.
53:32Gotta chase me.
53:34Gotta chase me.
53:36Love me.
53:37Hate me.
53:39Running.
53:40Chase me.
53:42Running, running, running we go.
53:43Ain't no catching me.
53:44I know what they certain to for sure.
53:46You too slow for me.
53:47That's why they hate me.
53:49Cause I'm too fast.
53:50Can't catch me.
53:52Can't catch me.
53:54Fast like an NASCAR.
53:55Coming through the back door.
53:57I ain't winning.
53:58You the loser.
53:59This is what you asked for.
54:01Trying to set a trap for me.
54:03But I got a few tricks up my sleeve.
54:06Love me.
54:07Hate me.
54:09Running.
54:10Chase me.
54:12Plotting.
54:13Betray me.
54:14Just waiting.
54:16To get me.
54:17Gotta chase me.
54:19Gotta chase me.
54:20Gotta chase me.
54:22Gotta chase me.
54:24Love me.
54:44Go.
54:48They've been plotting against me.
54:50Fucking with our business.
54:52Tariq, you'll have to take out Carter.
54:56I'm fucking tired of those motherfuckers thinking they can stand against me.
55:01What the fuck you gonna do now, Tariq?
