Dreams

Quentin!

Come on in here, boy.

Boy, it look like you need a bath.

Hmm.

We gotta get you clean, boy.

You been out there...

Running in all that snow.

You wanna be clean, don't ya?

We need to sweat them more.

We need to sweat.

Without sweat, everything's nothing.

This fight, if you sweat,

the fight's gonna be much easier for you.

Now, you don't work hard enough.

It's all about pain.

How to receive pain and give it out.

That's our gym.

That's all we do. That's all we do.

Just always make sure that you come to the gym,

always is pain.

You got pain, you give back.

That's always it.

That's the story usually.

Ole G's raised me, that package blow.

Living life.

Living life in sin,

seein' wasn't in the...

Alonzo. Yo.

I have been waitin' on this day.

I ain't gotta have 'em that tight.

It ain't like I ain't goin' home.

Alonzo.

Son, could I hold your hand?

Father, I pray right now for Alonzo

as he leaves this place, God.

Lord, bless him and his family.

God, we ask, God,

that you'd restore everything

that the enemy has stolen from him.

Bring it back, my lord!

And we'll give you praise, in Jesus' name, amen.

Amen.

Thank you for everything you've done for me.

You're a changed man, Alonzo.

I believe God's gonna tremendously use you.

Thank you. Yes.

A'ight, ole G.

All right, now.

What's up, man?

I'm gonna remember everything you taught me.

Keep your head up in here, man.

I'm gonna miss you, brother.

Gonna miss you, too, man.

I'm gonna write you, though, shoot you a couple kites.

Lonzo!

Let's roll, man.

I'm good, man.

I'm good, man.

You know Donte ain't gonna like this.

Is what it is, man. I'm good on Donte.

Why haven't you left yet?

You get a job yet?

Hey! What?

What.

Look, God first,

school second,

because you are not losing that scholarship,

and then dancing third.

And you don't have to worry about a job.

Excuse me?

Anyway, I appreciate you, sis.

All right.

I'll talk with you later, okay?

All right. Okay.

Oh, I'll be at church later tonight,

if you're looking for me.

Yo, Alonzo, Mike,

another one of our tenants here.

What's going on, man? What's up, Mike?

Well, this is your place.

Not the best.

A lot better than the joint.

The other tenant left a few things here.

You don't wanna keep 'em, throw 'em out.

Okay. Uh, need to tell you this.

We're here for ya, but we do have rules.

No drugs, no drinkin',

no yellin', no fighting,

and I know you just out the joint,

but absolutely no women.

I can respect that. All right. All right.

Now, if you forget it,

here's the rules, right here on the door.

We only have one shower,

but there's a boxing gym down the alley.

Got a lotta showers. The owner'll let you use it.

Welcome. All right. Thanks.

Make yourself comfortable. Appreciate it.

You can do this.

You can do this, Mia.

I gotta pee.

We'll just have to stop somewhere.

I don't understand why her mom is so strict.

If I was 20 and I couldn't have my own friends

in my house, I would... just let it go.

Go cr... what do you mean let... like that's weird.

It is weird. We'll just have to stop somewhere.

It... but... I mean should we talk to her about this?

Ready? Can I run in and use your bathroom?

No, let's just go to Harold's. I want a bite to eat anyway.

Okay?

Hey, look at this dude.

He was something.

I don't know why.

Where's our boy?

Hi, this is your dad.

Call me back.

I tried to call you, but nobody's picking up phone.

Please you call me back. Very, very important.

Hey, look at them shorties right here.

Hey, yo, shorties! You with the light eyes.

What's your name?

I ain't seen you around here before.

Hey!

Hey!

You hear me talkin' to you?

What's so funny?

I didn't get the joke.

Why don't you fill me in?

Mia! Let's go!

I got your attention now, huh?

Bye, Mia.

Yo, Bobby, I like her.

Press the shoulders down and make sure you...

Hands up, right, right, right.

The muscles, use them for balancing.

Okay.

Wow.

I know. It's kinda drab in the daytime.

You would never think it was like a hot club.

Ooh, you ready for this, Mia?

Uh, sure.

What's wrong with you? You-you really wanna fight?

Excuse me.
