TV show quotes
At least the weather'll be good for you for this weekend.
Hey, don't start.
Tay's sweet sixteen party?
His coming of age party.
I don't get it, so it's like a bar mitzvah… but with soul music.
Tay's turning 13 this weekend, he's coming of age. What's not to get?
And you're gonna get him a hooker.
What the hell's wrong with you?
Nothing's wrong with me, I'm not the one throwing my son a cotillion.
Is he crazy?
It wasn't his idea to kidnap me. It was his partner's.
You can't write to him Lizzie. I mean do you want us to be homeless? I mean if Dad finds out that Boa wrote you and you wrote him back, Dad will kill him, Lizzie. Then Dad will go to jail, Mom will be mad, we'll be sad, we'll end up on the streets broke and homeless because of you.
I can't believe that my dad is letting me go out with you. What did you say to him?
Stuff men say to each other. But the important thing is what I want to tell you. Cassie, sex isn't really a big deal to me right now. (pause) Well, maybe a medium deal. The important thing is that I love you and I want you to feel comfortable with me.
I am and I've always been comfortable with you.
(to Eddie) You'll never rest easy, as long as I'm alive.
(to Eddie) One thing about the real Lincoln Heights, we look out for our own.
Gangbanger (to Cassie): So what you doing out here by yourself, mami? Don't you know the streets are dangerous?
Go away!
I'm just trying to help you out, see? If you come with us, we're gonna take good care of you. (he gropes Cassie's leg)
You wanna know why I'm by myself? The buses aren't running, there's people all in the streets, I lost my boyfriend. I've been waiting an hour-and-a-half for him to pick me up! –People are throwing bottles everywhere, this city's going crazy! Now you come to hassle me?! You want something from me? Well, come get it, papi, otherwise back off!
Nothing's up, quit riding me!
What did you say? (to Cassie) What in the hell's going on? You're home late; your sister's talking back.
Don't look at me, Tay's the one wearing makeup.
(about Boa) He says that my letters are what's keeping him alive. I know I should listen to what my dad says, but if all it takes is a letter to help someone, isn't it wrong not to write it?
What the hell kind of a name is "Sage"?
It beats "Parsley".
Okay, dude, this is no time to joke! My kid just landed on my doorstep. My over-developed, under-dressed, trucker-mouth kid.
This is not about me; this is about you and your family.
Okay, but right now I gotta deal with my family.
Fine. I'm coming with you, you're not gonna do this alone.
We just got a shipment of flu shots and Saturday mornings are especially bad.
Remember when we used to be especially bad on Saturday mornings?
(voice over) In every war there are weapons: Gats, nines, hate, intimidation. Don't matter who you are, everybody's strappin'. But sometimes, some days, it goes the other way, and the weapons are hope, trust and understanding. Maybe those are the weapons that can win the war, or maybe it ain't supposed to be won at all. Maybe the point is to keep on going, keep on fighting, and never, ever, give up.
I'm in kind of a bind here. I made Jarone's family a promise, if you press charges I won't be able to keep that promise.
That boy needs to pay for what he's done.
I hear ya, but some bad guys are after Jarone –connected guys. He goes into the system now, he may not come out alive. See how it goes. If it doesn't work out, press charges. Make him pay his debt to society.
To hell with society, he can pay his debt to me.
(about Jarone) How can I help him if I don't give him the benefit of the doubt?
Well, you're a better man than me.
And this surprises you?
(to Charles) Are you breaking up with me? (Charles looks away) Are you?
Yes.
Don't you love me anymore?
It doesn't matter...
It does, Charles, it matters to me. Did you ever love me?
I did, and I still do.
Well why won't you fight for us?!
'Cause it won't work. This is for the best.
For who, Charles? Don't say it's for me, because it's not. You're doing this for you! (turns and runs out)
