Rue: And even though she
wasn't, like, the best guardian...
("Look at Grandma"
by Bo Diddley playing)
she taught him everything
he knew about life.
Bag that shit up. Put it in

They don't wanna be
fuckin' accused of bein'
fuckin' pederasts. You
know what I'm sayin'?
Rue: He didn't really
know much about his mom.
His grandma never really
liked to talk about her,
except to occasionally say...
Grandma: Your
mom had a pure heart.
But your daddy always
took advantage of that.

♪ Grandma, grandma
everybody's watching you ♪
Let me tell you
somethin' snowflake,
there's a short supply

Don't ever fall in love. It's the
one instinct... you can't trust.
-♪ Look at grandma
♪ -♪ Oh, look at her ♪
Rue: Fezco liked that she
didn't treat him like a kid.
All right, today we're gonna
learn about weight and volume.
Rue: He went to school,
and when he paid
attention, he did well.
There's 28.5 grams in an ounce.
- Teacher: How many ounces in a pound?
- Young Fezco: Sixteen.
Rue: Especially in math.
And then one day, he
came home from school.
("Jump Into The Fire"
by Harry Nilsson playing)
Grandma: Fuckin'
day I've fuckin' had.
Rue: He didn't know
who the baby was.
- What's up?
- Rue: But
so much always happened so fast
he decided it was better
not to ask questions.
♪ You can climb a mountain ♪
You remember the white
cracker with the fuckin' bowl-cut?
♪ You can jump into the fire ♪
Who the fuck brings
a kid to a drug deal?
He ain't a kid, asshole.
He's my partner.
That fuckin' bowl-cut cocksucka!
Sold me 10 grand of
fuckin' Bayer Aspirin.
Fucked us both up
the ass, snowflake.
♪ We can make each other happy ♪
Grandma: Look at him.
He's a cute little bastard.
Sad story, though. Some cunt
mother gave him to me as collateral.
He's ours till 10 PM.
Hey, can I get the, uh, pop off?
- Call me when his mama gets here.
- (baby cries)
Rue: The baby was really
cute, but no matter what he did,
he couldn't get
him to stop crying.
He probably just missed his mom.
(baby shrieks)
("Think" by Curtis
Mayfield playing)
Rue: She never came
back to pick him up.
(funky music playing)
Grandma: My nephew,
your uncle, Carl,
he ends up eatin' so
much fuckin' McDonald's,
he gives himself
diabetes, right?
Next thing you know, they're
chopping off his fuckin' feet, right?
Three years later,
he fuckin' drops dead.
Do I call the fuckin'
cops, and say,
"Oh, you gotta fuckin' arrest
Ronald fuckin' McDonald?"
- I don't know.
- Grandma: No, I don't fuckin' call.
'Cause it's fuckin'
Uncle Carl's fault.
Nobody told him to
fuckin' eat McDonald's
for fuckin' breakfast,
lunch and dinner.
You understand?
Watch this fuckin' kid.
Come on. Get the baby. Oh,
what the fuck are you doin'?
Come here. Let me
get... Let me take it.
No, no, no. Get it.
Yeah. This fuckin' kid.
He's eatin' fuckin' cigarettes.
Now, you're fuckin'
one of us, right?
What are you, a

Fuckin' livin' your best life

Rue: Fezco knew that
his grandma wasn't normal,
and did things that maybe
other parents wouldn't do.
But they were a family.

but he did it anyway.
Muthafucka! Eat fuckin' shit!
- Grandma! Grandma!
- (Grandma yelling)
You fuckin' take my
money? You scumbag!
Muthafucka! Piece of shit!
Rue: That was
his first dark spot.
He didn't really remember
anything for at least two months.
Just an occasional image,
and an overwhelming fear
about who was gonna
take care of Ashtray.
Grandma: I don't feel too
good. I'm gonna go lie down.
Rue: He never really
blamed his grandma.
She never really
apologized for it.
(slow funk music playing)
But he knew she felt bad.
(crashing)
He found this grandma
on the floor of the bathroom.
Fez didn't wanna call
911 for obvious reasons,
so he decided to drive her car
to the hospital, which took forever.
It was definitely a mistake.
The doctor even said it.
- Is she going to be okay?
- Doctor: Every second counts.
Rue: The next thing he knew...
he had a business to run.
And a little brother
to take care of.
♪ Yeah ♪
And however hard
he thought life was...
it got harder and
more complicated.
'Cause the more you
move up in the world,
the more enemies you make.
He wondered how his grandma
would deal with someone like Nate.
But he didn't have his grandma.
(both laughing)
Look at him over there!
Rue: Just Ash.
("Who Am I" by
The O'Jays playing)
Ash was his brother.
He loved him like a brother.
And when shit went down...
Man: You're late.
Fezco: We got caught up
dealin' with some bullshit.
Man: I heard you got raided.
Fezco: They ain't
find nothin', though.
They ain't got shit on me.

Yeah.

Um... I don't think...
I wouldn't do that here.
- It's just heroin.
- No, I, I see that.
But, maybe, like, I don't
know. I just feel like it isn't...
the best place to do that.
- Why?
- Um...
I just feel like this is really not
the right time to be doing that.
Faye: Listen, I fucking

So, did you, like,
have a good Christmas,
or are you Jewish or somethin'?
Yeah, well, my mom's Jewish,
but she always says if
the Christians can steal
Christmas from the Pagans,
then the Jews can also.
You say the Christians
stole Christmas?
Well, in order to convert
the Germanic Pagans
who, like, celebrated
winter solstice and stuff,
the Christians were like, "Fuck it.
Let's just say Jesus was born this day,
and you can hang
tinsel and stuff."
How you just go and
change the man's birthday?
Well, in the same way
King James was rewriting
the Bible on one
