hwpSo gather around
as I run it down...
and unraveI my pedigree.
My father...
was a junkie.
Dont you never do this shit,
you hear me?
This is bad shit.
Yeah, OK.
Dont you never be Iike me,
all right?
Dont do it.
What you want for Christmas?
I dont know.
You dont know?
Boy, you better know
what you want.
EIse, how do you expect
to get what you want...
if you dont know what you want?
-Ill be right back.
-Daddy, dont go!
No, man, dont.
Come on, Im sorry, boy.
You know
youre my main IittIe nigger.
You go--you go...
Get out of here, man.
Give to the poor.
Lets go, come on.
Hey!
Merry God damn Christmas, kid!
You been a good boy, huh?
Murderer!
Dont teach my boy
that fairy taIe eIf shit!
Did you see?
Im sorry.
The money.
My father,
when I saw him die Iike that--
saw him find his grave
in the snow--
I onIy had one thought.
It wasnt going to happen to me.
Tell me,
do you know the difference...
between a bIack man
and a nigger?
Most niggers dont.
Next, pIease.
Good morning. Have a seat.
So tell me, Officer Winston...
whats the difference...
between a bIack man
and a nigger?
Who the fuck do you think
youre taIking to?
Right. Thanks for coming in.
So, Officer Stevens...
tell me, do you know
the difference...
between a bIack man
and a nigger?
The niggers the one that wouId
even answer that question.
Most undercover cops
dont know what theyre doing...
because its a day gig.
Im Iooking for somebody
who will go under...
and stay under--
six months, a year, five years.
What does he have to do?
Buy drugs, sell drugs...
set up the peopIe
that I want to bust.
No. Hes a snitch.
Hes a drug deaIer.
Hes a criminaI, hes a scumbag.
But most importantIy...
hes a scumbag
for the right side.
Youll be on Ioan to the DEA...
and youll report
directIy to me.
Ive stayed away from this
kind of stuff all my Iife...
drugs and stuff.
Ive never even had a drink.
I never have, and I never will.
Because your father was
killed robbing a Iiquor store...
when you were ten years oId?
Im God. I know everything.
Why did you join the force?
Because I wanted to be
of some use...
to make a difference somehow.
Have you ever seen
your psychoIogicaI profiIe?
You score aImost exactIy
Iike a criminaI.
Look at this.
Resents authority.
Rigid moraI code...
but with no underIying
system of vaIues.
InsufficientIy deveIoped
sense of seIf.
Look at all the rage...
Iook at all
the repressed vioIence.
Im telling you, undercover...
all your fauIts
will become virtues.
Youll be a star there, John.
Youll do a Iot more good
there than in uniform.
You will be of use.
You will make a difference.
Those guys...
after work, they went home
to their wife and kids.
Then one day on the street,
they forgot where they were...
and now theyre dead.
But youll never go home...
so you wont forget.
Because theres onIy one ruIe
in this game, John--
dont bIow your cover.
I didnt want the assignment.
I sat there
the whoIe interview...
thinking that if I took it...
it wouId be the biggest mistake
of my Iife.
And I was right.
Im Iooking for a room.
So you see?
Thats whats wrong--
theres just
no imagination these days.
Hey, bassino!
Thats BeIinda Chacon...
and if you want my opinion...
youll stay away
from that bitch.
If you want to get anywhere
in drug enforcement...
dont bother
with street deaIers.
You take one of them out...
theres ten more
to take their pIace.
Go after the big guys...
try to knock out
the big networks.
FeIix Barbosa.
Hes Iike
a middIe-IeveI executive.
He suppIies the guys
who suppIy the guys...
who suppIy the street.
He gets his stuff
from the importer...
Anton Gallegos.
Gallegos is the number one
importer in the West Coast.
Forty percent of all the drugs
in Los AngeIes...
go directIy through this guy.
Very cute.
Hes abIe to do this
IargeIy because his uncIe...
Hector Guzman...
is an infIuentiaI
Latin-American poIitician...
a seIf-promoting
dupIicitous greaseball...
according to our friends
at the State Department.
He heIps Gallegos get
the product into the country.
Are we going after him?
Uh, well...
no, not directIy. Hes too big.
But if we can naiI the nephew...
maybe itll smear the uncIe,
hurt him back home poIitically.
That wouId be very good
for you and me.
That wouId get us friends
in high pIaces.
But we want the uncIe.
We want Guzman.
John, Iisten.
Will you stay with me?
One step at a time.
You go for Barbosa...
and then Gallegos...
nice and orderIy.
The beauty of that
is it protects your ass.
Hollywood...
The great thing
about Iife on the street...
is you know
how its going to be.
Its aIways the same.
Its aIways getting worse.
Eddie, in his red caddy
and his nice cIothes...
that his mama
must have bought him...
he suppIied the street deaIers.
He was a crazy, good-natured,
desperate asshoIe...
with a Iife expectancy
of about a haIf an hour.
But peopIe said he got his dope
by way of FeIix Barbosa...
so I had to get to him
and through him...
whiIe he was still around.
Yo, baby boy.
What the fuck I tell you
about being around here?
They toId me I had to.
No
