Shakes his head and looks away in disgust

REALLY?

Mom

He is the streets and if you wanna do this he's the only one I trust to school you.

Ight, but you tell him we only talk business and that's it.

Mom

I don't expect you to ever get over that and I am truly sorry.

INT. DINER - night

Jenaveve

Well, I guess your daddy did raise you right.

Yea, OK!!!!

8 min later

Jenaveve

OK Papi let's go. By the way what is your name.

Call me Tu.

Jenaveve

TU?? Like Tupac? You ain't black sweetheart sorry to tell you.

Oh shit. Nah. I know. We'll I'm Sicilian so technically I have black roots. But, Tu is short for TuCents.

Jenaveve

Oh, so you're broke huh.

Broke? No, I'm not broke. I have money. I'm not rich but I'm definitely not broke.

JENAVEVE

Explain for me this.

Remember when I told you how my dad is dead. Well, he had a life insurance policy. And since my mom is in prison it goes to me.

Jenaveve

Oh!! Why is this?

My dad caught my mom cheating on him with this dude name Trom and when my dad starting attacking Trom my mom shot him. They didn't have a good marriage I don't know why they were even together, to be honest. I then went to live with my aunt and her family in upstate NY but I didn't like it there so I emancipated myself shortly after so I wouldn't get stuck in some foster home back here.

Jenaveve

in awe

WOW!!!! That's sad. So, have you ever been in jail?

I have. I was released from Jamesburg just about a year ago, just before I turned 19. I did 14 months there and then went back for 9 more on a parole violation.

Jenaveve

Bad boy huh? How'd a cute boy like you end up living a bad boy life?

I guess it's in my jeans.

Jenaveve looks at Tu's Jeans

Tu with his arm around Jenaveve just looks at Josh as he walks into his room with Jenaveve.

Tu Kisses her on the forehead

Tu leaves the room

Josh

WHAT THE FUCK BRO?? SERIOUSLY? YOU GO VISIT YOUR MOM WHERE I KNOW YOU TALKED BUSINESS WITH HER BUT YOU AIN'T GONNA TALK TO ME? YOU JUST GONNA GO BANG THE WAITRESS?

My mom says hi.

Tu lights a smoke and then takes a bottle of whiskey out of the fridge pours a drink and then takes a sip.

Phone rings

Tu answers the phone

Voice

Open the door "O".

Tu opens the door

TROM

Trom

O.... Tu.... What the fuck is it bro..... O or Tu?

It's Tu. I hate that O shit. Anyways I guess my mom talked to you huh?

Trom

So, how'd you get that name?

When I was down state they used to call me "Two Cents" because I would always have to add my two cents to everything. Funny how that's a big no-no in prison but somehow not for me. So, since I've been home that's what I go by now.

TROM

Laughs

Yo, that's some true shit bro. I don't know how you made it out that way. Well, it was only Juvy, not real prison, but I guess that's your mom's DNA in you.

Pause

TROM

Yea ummmm, We can talk or you preoccupied?

Looks at Jenaveve

Why don't you go to my room for a few let the men discuss men stuff....

Jenaveve

I need to shower and head to work. Kisses Tu and heads out.

A car screeches to a stop infront of the house.

DANO

WHAT THE FUCK!!

DanO looks outside and see's Jennifer get out of a car with 2 guys (one is latino 24 small build the other is black 30 average build.

DanO grabs a golf-club out of a golf-bag from the living room and flings it over his shoulder and rushes outside.

DANO

What up dough!!!

He swings the club around as he approches the guys.

The 2 guys jump back in the car and leave Jennifer beind.

JENNIFER

Fucking pussies!

As DanO walks back to the door, a patrol car rolls up. One officer (Black 34, Tall, Built) approaches the house as the other officer stands outside the cruiser (White 40, medium size).

JENNIFER

Officer help. This guy assaulted me.

Officer looks at DanO and starts to approach

DanO standing half in the doorway toss's the golf-club near the golf-bag.

The officer walks up to DanO

Officer

Is this true? Did you assault this woman?

JENNIFER

Yes, he did officer. He hit me and then threw me on the ground and I hurt my head.

OFFICER

Ma'am please stand over there and let me handle this.

Now sir, did you assault this woman?

DANO

Officer, with all due respect, look at me and look at her. If I hit her do you think she would be talking right now?

No, I didn't hit her.

JENNIFER

OFFICER

Ralpy walks to the door

RALPHY

Officer points at Ralphy

OFFICER

JENNIFER

Yea, so.

OFFICER

Who's house is this.

DANO

Mine sir.

OFFICER

Ma'am I'm placing you under arrrest for failure to obey a judges order.

The officer places Jennifer under arrest and walks her to the squad car where the other officer has the door open. Then he walks back towards the house.

OFFICER

Do you mind if we step inside for a second I just have a couple questions then I'll have her out of your hair.

DANO

Yea, sure.

As they walk inside Tu comes out from the kitchen he has a plate in one hand and a piece of chicken in the other. He looks at the 3 men and motion the plate as to offer them some food. No one budges and he shrugs his shoulders and goes back to the kitchen.

int - Tu's apt - day

Tu and Josh are sitting in the living room counting money.

JOSH

Josh is laughing his ass off

Then I'm making some chicken cause you know I'm fucking hungry and shit. Ralphy gets his wobbling ass up from the chair and heads outside. I'm not even paying attention I'm in food mode now. I start eating and I swear I hear a cop so, I take the plate and head over towards the door and see DanO, Ralphy and a Cop standing inside the door. I motion offer them some chicken as I take a bite of some and then just go back to the kitchen.

JOSH

Price hands Tu a bag

PRICE

Prices leaves and Tu closes the door.

Tu has a wierd look on his face

JOSH

JOSH

JOSH

Yea, you think he knows? Maybe he's setting us up? How we gonna handle this?

I don't know. You got any ideas?

Josh is shocked

JOSH

There's a knock on Tu's door

Who is it?

Voice from behind door

Tu opens the door

How was the funeral?

MICKEY

Dude!!! Roll one up I got a story for you.

Tu rolls a blunt

MICKEY

Probably was the Mafia.

MICKEY

You ain't lying. Anyway so, Tony laying there and you know Devin?

Yea, he's the fien who ran with Tony.

MICKEY

EXACTLY!! SO, he see's that Tony's being buried in his Presidential Rolex and decides that he should have it.

Oh boy!!! I can only imagine how this went.

MICKEY

We all outside now and the hearse is out back. Don't ask me how but this nigga gots a flat head and a crowbar and jumps in the hearse. I can't see what he's doing but all of a sudden the hearse is shaking like 2 teenagers fucking at the look outs. Then "BANG" this loud fucking noise and now people start walking over to the hearse. I guess he see's them and next thing I knew that mudda fucking hearse starts up tires screaching the back doors fling open he hits the road almost smashes into a car....

WHAT THE FUCK...

Tu passes the blunt to Mickey

Mickey takes the blunt and hits it

MICKEY

Yea, man. That ain't even the best part. As he swerves to avoid the car the casket flies out Tony's dead body hits the ground and then the hearse smacks into a cop car then hits a telephone pole and that shit feel right onto a house. BOOM....

MICKEY

Yea, bro but the best part, well for me anyway, Tony's watch fell almost right at my feet.

Mickey pulls out the watch from his pocket

I scooped that shit up and slid right the fuck outta there. Don't worry I made a few stops on the way here. I wasn't followed.

Good!!! Yo, that's fucking incredible. That motherfucker Devin is one sick fuck bro. I never liked his bitch ass. I always knew he was a grimmy piece of shit.

MICKEY

Yup.

Done. I'm sure my guy will take it.

MICKEY

Nice. Thanks bro. So, what's up you need to talk to me?

Yea, I have a proposition for you. I need you to team up with DanO and follow someone for me. I need to know where he lives and if and when is the best time to catch him alone at home. You do this for me and once I do what I gotta do I take good care of you.

MICKEY

Hmmmm.....

Ok, how well you gonna take care of me.

MICKEY

That's cool.

Good. There's a guy coming here in 3 days around noon to see me. When he leaves I'll call DanO's phone and tell you guys who to look for. Just be close enough to see the door that leads to my apartment.
