I've been waiting for this moment for a while now. Sorry, just didn't expect it to hit me like this. I'm all emotional on [__]. Told myself I'd keep it cool, you know. Told myself I wouldn't do no fanboy [__] like this, but I'm sorry dude. I just have so much respect for your ass. It makes me all yo, what's that word those weird-ass hostage used for this [__] her clint, that's it birkeland you. Well, you're like a hero to me, a hero. I did wrong, not gonna lip stick that pig, but it was a turning point in my story nonetheless. And something tells me it was a turning point in your story too, javi. Make our guest here more comfortable ah. We're on the second floor of a three-story walk-up, two-armed dopes and a crazy method who thinks he's deepak chopra. It only exits the front door, but I seem to remember there's a fire escape.

In the back, I'm not thinking about an escape plan right now. Escape is the only thing we should be thinking about until we find Krista, kiddo. Need I remind you about Dominican psycho over here? Krista was just bait; now she's probably dead. But we need to find out. I just need to get him doing what he loves to do best—talk. He'll tell us what we want. No, you gonna say something? It's been a minute. How the [__] you been? Truth is, I'm a little confused. You came looking for me two months ago. Why'd you wait until today to make your move? Well, if you must know, I had to prepare, set the stage for our meat. This [__] is bigger than Frost/Nixon, you know? Had to be ready. Ready for what? For you, bro. You a formidable adversary. You ain't no corner [__]. I can stick my dick in need to buy you dinner first. Now that this is dinner.

[ __ ] [ __ ] you trying to make a metaphor yo v i thought you said this kid of jesus swear to god if you don't shut the [ __ ] up how about we just cut the [ __ ] you tell me why i'm here after all unfortunate parting of ways i had to return back home to the dr hadn't been back there since i was little when people didn't think much of me it actually reminded me of a dream i used to have that i would one day own that island that the very land everyone walked on slept on [ __ ] on will be mine shuttle and this looks like it's going to be a long one except there was back in the dr though those same [ __ ] who didn't believe in me said i wouldn't amount to nothing but this time they was wrong i had tools now i have vision i didn't have before so i started hustling i set up shop

a couple of corners in there first in my home and a few other [ __ ] got a press joined in a couple of black battles but nothing we couldn't handle matter of fact it was easier than ever [Music] like a virus [Music] politicians especially with 5-9 tom and their wallets once that domino fell we took control of all the barbells both the dominicans [Music] i was running everything and everyone from the president to the campesino and by day 87 i finally had my own island then on the 88th day i got bored i had everything i ever wanted but all i felt was emptiness one day javi over here brings me this crazy old shaman who says he can help me so i says i let him in he set my ass down prepared me a cocktail this powder pink powder red blood mixed in with titty milk he looked into my eyes and said you're asleep it's time you wake up then held the cup to my lips.

you wanna know what I did, Elliott. I'll gulp that [ __ ] down, and then I just gotta be real with you, bro. I [ __ ] myself, then I puked myself back and forth, back and forth [ __ ] and puking till all the [ __ ] and puke poured out of me. This shaman then takes my face in his hand, says, It's time for you to go home. I didn't know what to do. I told him I was home, and then it hit me while I was feeling empty that whole time. Home isn't where you're from, where you're supposed to be. I was born Dominican, but here, New York [Music]. This is my home. This is where I thrived. And there I laid, he'd been like a [ __ ] telling the shaman, I can never go back. I failed there. That path was closed to me. Shaman shook his head, no, told me I had to reopen that path, that I had to reconcile.

with the man who closed it, but he was meant to be my partner then, and only then cannot go home again. That's why we're sitting here right now, Elliott. That's why I came back. I own the wrong island. [Music] I'm gonna take over New York, and you're gonna be by my side when I do. So what you think? Where's Krista? You want me to partner with you for anything? First things first, I need to know where Krista is. You forget we've played this game already. That's why I'm asking. [Laughter] Now that I think about it, this was Isaac's knife. You remember him, don't you? My brother. This is probably the same one he did your girl Shayla with. No one here wants to see no rerun, bruh. You're not gonna kill Krista. She's the only thing you got over me. I can't believe with all that enlightenment, you come back here to be just as stupid as you were last time. Stupid last time we did this dance. I got

everything I wanted, didn't I? You didn't get me. [Music] You.
