Look at us.

When we were brothers...

we wanted more.

More volume.

More muscles.

Us three.

Us kings.

Us brothers.

Us family.

- Body heat. - Body heat.

Body heat, body heat.

Body heat, body heat.

Body heat, body heat.

Body heat, body heat. Body...

Manny.

Joel.

Ma.

Pops.

Me.

Manny!

Joel!

Shh.

Sometimes...

we wanted less.

Less work.

Less noise.

Just this.

Jonah.

Come on. What are you waiting for?

Wait up!

Toss it up!

I call first to be on the bed.

Shake it, Papito! Come on!

Come on. All right, now.

Shake it like you're rich.

Snobby, snobby, rich, rich.

Get those noses up.

Shake it! Shake it!

You ain't rich.

Shake it like you're white.

Like your ma.

No rhythm.

Nah, you ain't white.

Now shake it like you're Puerto Rican.

Eh!

Come on!

I met your ma in high school.

I asked her to dance.

And that's how he got me.

I was only 14.

Yeah, you didn't look 14.

I sat in his lap just like this.

And I remember asking, "Can I get pregnant from this?"

And he said, "What, this?"

And there was no way we could stay in Brooklyn after that.

Then out popped Manny.

Yeah.

Boo!

And then Joel.

And then you.

What time do we got?

Look at me.

Watching them.

Flying.

Fearless.

You went so far.

Was that scary?

I'll never let anything happen to you.

You grew up with all these lakes and rivers.

You got two brothers that swim like a couple of goldfish.

How come you don't swim?

You don't know how to swim either.

Yeah, well, no one ever swam in Brooklyn.

Then where did Paps learn how to swim?

I don't know.

You ready?

You're coming with me.

Come on. I got you, bud.

- Come on. You too. - You crazy?

No, no. You're coming. Come on.

- I'm okay. I'm good, I'm good. - Come with me.

Come on. It'll be fine.

- I got you. - Okay.

Come on. Hold on to me.

Come on.

Hold on tight.

Hold on tight.

All right.

Time to learn.

Does that feel good?

Hold on.

You good?

See? You're safe.

Hold me tight.

We've gone too far. Take us back.

He's got to learn to swim.

You both got to learn to swim.

How else you gonna learn?

Huh?

I need to talk to your ma. Take your brothers out for a sec.

- And do what? - Get out of the car, coño!

You okay, bro?

You're fucking babying him. Goddamn it.

He will learn to swim

like normal people learn to swim!

Did he learn to swim?

Did he learn to swim?

Why do you have to do this?

Wake up!

Where's he going?

Listen.

Do me a favor.

I need you to be good and quiet around your ma.

There was a, uh... an emergency.

Yeah, I had to take her to the dentist tonight.

Manny, come here.

Hold on to this for me.

Is she hurt?

She just needed some, uh...

her wisdom teeth taken out.

The dentist was, uh...

punching on her a little.

That's how they loosen up the teeth before they rip them out.

The dentist said she'll be better by tomorrow.

It's my birthday tomorrow.

Well...

happy birthday, old man.

It's his birthday.

Happy birthday.

He's ten.

He'll leave me now.

Ten?

What's that supposed to mean?

When you boys turned ten, you left me.

That's what big boys do.

I won't.

Good.

Will you get up today?

How do I look?

- Purple. - Crazy.

Torn up.

What did he do to me?

He punched you in the face.

To loosen up your teeth.

You think that's funny when men beat on your mother?

Promise me you'll stay nine forever?

How?

Simple.

You're not ten.

You're nine plus one.

Next year you'll be nine plus two.

Like that.

Forever.

Why?

Because...

when they ask you how old you are...

you'll be telling them that no matter how old you are...

you are your ma's baby boy.

And if you stay my baby boy, then I'll always have you.

You feel that?

I remember your heart inside me.

Ticking like a bomb.

That hurt!

Now that Paps was gone...

she stopped eating.

Stopped cooking.

Stopped getting out of bed.

Not knowing what's to come,

why, that's... that's pretty scary.

But I have heard the future.

All of you hear the future...

in a dream.

It's God's whispering.

Put your hands on your ears

and block out the noise

and feel the magic of God inside you.

We are the magic of God.

Us three.

Us three.

His name, Papito. Your mother smells like pizza.

I give it to your teacher for luck, for luck,

for luck, for luck, for luck.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.

Oh, soy sauce.

If you stay still and cool,

you won't be hungry.

God, I'm starving.

Don't answer the phone.

But what if it's Paps?

Ring, ring.

Hello?

Mami...

how come you didn't answer the phone when I call you?

'Cause you sound so ugly.

Here, try it.

Yo, yo, what's up?

Woman!

This is your husband talking to you right now.

You better act right.
