The Yards

1, 2, 1, 2, 3.

Go!Go!Go!

Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!

Aah!

Watch out, watch out, it's hot, it's hot.

Thank you, honey.

All right.

Ok.

No, no, no, no.

Come on.

We have to wait for Leo.

Get out of here, Bernard.

We're waiting for your cousin.

I'm hungry.

I'll tell ya, yeah, he's good-lookin'.

He's real good-lookin'. You're gonna like him.

- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.

You think so?

I know so. I know these kind of things.

Trust me. I'm blessed with a gift.

Careful. It's real hot.

I got it, I got it.

Val, this all looks wonderful.

Yeah.

Let's try and make a little room here.

What about your husband, is he coming?

Oh, no. Frank can't come, honey.

I meant to tell you. He has to work,

but he's gonna meet Leo tomorrow at the interview.

Ok. Well...

At least Bernard's eating.

Hey, sweetie.

- How you doin'? - Good.

- Hmm? - Yeah.

Erica, you know Belvee? Belva.

Belva.. Belva.

Belva. Nice.

Hey.

Hey.

I was telling her about your cousin, about Leo.

I want her to meet him.

- Oh, yeah? - Yeah.

Hey. Hey, every body. He's here.

Yay!

Hey!

Hey, allright!

Hey, Ma.

How you doin'? Good?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm good.

You look terrific.

Oh, thanks. You, too.

I'm so glad you're home.

Me, too.

Hey!

Hey, Leo!

Leo the lion!

We all came to see you, buddy. How you doin'?

I'm all right.

I love ya, man.

Welcome home.

Thanks. It's good to see you.

You, too.

- How you doin'? - Real good.

Leo, welcome home.

Hey, what's up, Dante?

Good to see you.

What's up, Todd?

- What's up, Leo? - Neil.

You guys all look like you're doin' really good.

Don't worry about it.

It's gonna be comin' your way soon enough.

Hey, um, I want you to meet Belva.

Belva, this is Leo. This is Leo.

Hi.

Belva's a dancer.

Hi.

Come on. We've got so much food.

Everybody, let's eat.

Just dig in. Just help yourselves.

Mr. Handler.

We need to go over a few things.

Where can we talk?

I guess in the bedroom.

Come on.

My records show

that you were released at, uh...

4:00 this afternoon.

That's right.

You're supposed to make an arrival report.

Well, nobody told me that.

I thought I had 24 hours.

OK, well, in the future,

you should know that you're required to report

with due diligence.

Now, your profile says

you had some problems.

I see here that you served 16 months for auto theft.

So your parole status

has you on intensive supervision.

I'll have access to your bank records,

your W-2s, your pay stubs.

That's to keep track of your cash flow.

Now, what about employment? You know what you're gonna do?

Yeah, I think I got something.

What's that?

Well, my aunt's new husband has his own business.

You know, he's very, very important.

I'm supposed to go and interview with him tomorrow.

A couple of my friends out there,

they've been workin' for him, too.

Mm-hmm.

What about your counseling?

You know, I just--I don't wanna cause no problems.

I just wanna become a productive person again,

you know, in society.

So, what'd you think?

He looks good, right? He looks good.

Yeah. I never knew him from before.

Yeah, that's-- I mean, that's the point.

I don't-- I have nothin' to go by.

Hey.

Every thing OK?

Leo.. Yeah.

How you doin'? How come you're not out there?

'Cause Willie's talkin' with every body,

and I just... just wanted to get away for a second.

You and him still OK together?

Yeah.

We're thinking about maybe settling down...

but he's so busy with work right now, you know.

You know, I was really sorry to hear about your father.

He was a good man.

Maybe we should go back out there.

Erica.

What about your new father, you like him?

He's all right.

Did you get my letters?

Whoa!

They must've forgot to switch the fuse box.

OK, let's check out the radio...

There you are.

Hi, Ma.

Looks like there's a blackout, huh?

Yeah.

Erica, why don't you let your cousin be?

See if they need anything out there.

Excuse me, Aunt Kitty?

Yeah.

I just wanted to thank you

and your husband for the meeting tomorrow.

I really appreciate that.

Well, you know I'd do anything for your mother.

She's not doing too well.

You should know that.

Her heart is getting weaker.

Here he is.

Leo!

Hey, Leo!

What's up? What's up?

What's up, buddy? Aah!

- How you doin', all right? - Yeah, good.

Did you get a beer or something?

No. I'm all right.

All right.

Hey, I just wanted to tell you...

me and the guys really appreciate what you did.

Didn't say nothing to the cops about us.

I would never fold on you. You know that.

Look, I want you to come work with us.

So tomorrow when you see Frank,

you tell him that, all right?

- All right. - OK, good.

Come have a beer with us, OK, Leo?

Hey, you've had enough for every body.

No.

Leo.

We're all gonna go to the club this weekend.

You know, like we used to. All right?

Oh, that sounds excellent.

Be good.

Hey.

Hey, Leo, what's going on?

What's up, buddy? You don't say hi?

You look good.

Excuse me, everyone.

Every one!

Um, I just want to say that I am very happy

to have you all here.

And...

the last few years have been...

Well, sometimes not so easy,

but that's all over now.

And so from now on,

we're gonna have nothing but good times.

That's all I wanted to say.

Hear, hear.

Absolutely.

All right.

Let's have some coffee, if I can find the pot.

Yeah!
