Stringer and Omar in “Middle Ground”

[Omar and Brother Mouzone have trapped Stringer]

I ain't strapped. I ain't involved, yo. I ain't involved in none of that gangster bullshit.

[Both gunmen are silent, Stringer is breathing hard from running]

What y'all niggers want, man? Huh? Money?

[Silence]

IS THAT IT? Cause if it is, I can be a better friend to y'all alive.

You still don't get it, do you? This ain't about your money, bro. Your boy gave you up. That's right. And we ain't had to torture his ass neither!

[Stringer is silent, realizing both men have come for retribution]

[ruefully] Well it seem like... I can't say nuttin' to change y'all minds.

[long silence]

Well, get on with it, motherfu...

[Omar and Mouzone shoot him to death]
