Walker, Texas Ranger (1993–2001): Season 5, Episode 22 - The Neighborhood - full transcript

Come on, man.

Let's go, let's go. Come on.

Come on. Hurry up, hurry up.

We gotta show those B3
Dukes whose turf this is.

Run.

I got you, fat boy.
Where you going?

Where you going, fat boy?

Huh?

Dukes, baby.

Hey, Little Mac.
Give me a dime bag.

Let me see your bread.

Hey, hey! Hey, get out of here,
man. Look out, it's a firebomb.

It's your fault, Little Mac.
You was on the door.

Get up, boy. Get up.

You're lucky that's
all I'll do to you.

That's a quarter mil of
my merchandise, boy.

Up in smoke, fool.

Oh, Zack, I didn't see them.

Firebomb.

It's gone.

You think I can
afford that? Huh?

In your ugly face.

Nobody does this to B3
Dukes and keeps on breathing.

Right. Nobody.

Now, you new Dukes,

I want you to go out and
find this firebug for me.

Get me a name. I want a name.

Now, we're gonna
smoke this fool.

You know how we do it. Uh-huh.

Just like everybody
else who tries to stop us

from taking down what's ours.

Word up, Zack. B3 Dukes.

Dukes.

Let's do this.

Don't come back without.

Six.

Seven.

Eight.

Nine.

Ten.

Attention.

Bow. Free stand. ALL: Yes, sir.

We have two promotions today.

First to blue belt:

Melissa Echols.

Congratulations.

And to red belt:

Kyla Jarvis.

That's my grandbaby.

I should mention that
Kyla is our youngest red belt

in the Kick Drugs Out
of America program.

We gotta stop the killing,
the robbing and the drugs.

That means taking
back the neighborhood

now, before it's too late.

Now, last night...

Last night was the starting gun.

Last night was crazy, Leon.

Now, that could cause
a whole lot of trouble.

What did you learn
in Nam, Clete?

Survival.

Stay low and don't go
home in no body bag.

Yeah, well, I learned to hit
them first, and keep on hitting.

Word on the street
say he the one.

Leon Barlow.

- Yo, that's him?
- Way to go, Bobby.

Since you were the one
that dug this all up for me,

you get the privilege of putting

some caps in his butt.

Cool.

No, no, no. I'm sorry,
Leon, but I just disagree.

Whoever burned down
that place was wrong.

For torching a
crack house? Uh-uh.

Whoever burned that house was
doing the neighborhood a favor.

Two wrongs do not make a right.

She's right, Leon.

People can't take the
law into their own hands.

How did I do?

Yea, Kyla.

You were terrific.
Just like back home.

Best time I've had in
a month of Sundays.

You sang like an angel, Kyla.

I love you, Mr. Walker.

And I love you too.

Oh, that was so good.

You did pretty good
singing yourself.

No, no, no. Yeah, I heard you.

shoot him! Shoot him!

Get down.

What did you find out?

Ten people on the
street when Kyla was shot

and nobody saw a thing.

We don't need witnesses.
I know who's responsible.

It's Russell and them B3 Dukes.

There's gonna be payback
for what they did to Kyla too.

What are you gonna do, Leon?
Burn down another crack house?

What are you talking about?

I think they were
shooting at you.

That's what I think.

The crack house
that was burned down

was run by the B3 Dukes, Leon.

Look, man, I don't know
nothing about nothing.

Except that somebody's
gotta do something.

If you want somebody
to do something,

why don't you escort the
kids to school in the morning?

Or videotape the crack dealers.

Video?

You think them
punks care about that?

Look, if you videotape
them, we'll bust them.

All the Dukes
understand is force.

Oh, stop it, Leon. Don't
say any more, please.

Violence will never be
stopped with violence.

Doctor, how is she?

The bullets did a lot of damage

and she's bleeding internally.

We can't stop it.
I... I'm very sorry.

Let's go.

I shot that little girl, Zack.

All right, the hell with her!

You know what we gotta
do now? We gotta get Leon.

That's what we gotta do.

We got to set an example
in this neighborhood.

I'm getting sick of this.

Ain't that right, T?

You know what we gotta do.

So, what about you, bro? Huh?

Are you down with this or what?

Yeah, man, yeah, I'm down.

I'm just wondering how
that little girl is. That's all.

She's dying. That's how she is.

Who are you?

B3 Dukes for life.

What's your name?

Bobby Miller.

I got this.

What you want?

I wanna know who
shot that little girl.

Yo, B3 Dukes ain't had
nothing to do with all that, man.

So don't even step up in
here with your big hat on, man,

talking all that smack.

Then who did?

Somebody move in on
your territory, Russell?

Ain't nobody
talking to you, Tonto.

Then maybe we should
discuss it downtown?

Maybe we should
discuss it downtown.

You think it's funny,
don't you, Russell?

As soon as I can prove
you shot that little girl,

I'm gonna slap that
smile right off your face.

Why don't you do it now?

You can't do that, Walker.

I just did.

Come on, let's go. Come on.

You're dead, Walker.

You're dead, man.

Baby? Baby?

Don't you leave your
grandma. You hear me?

Please.

My sweet baby.

Baby.

Oh, Lord.

Dear Lord.

I know you know best.

I'm not questioning that.

And I know I've
made this child my life.

I'm asking you
to spare this child.

Not for me.

For her.

She doesn't deserve this.

She's a good girl

and she's been
through so much already.

Oh, my baby.

Thank you... Thank you, Jesus.

It's incredible.

But absolutely all internal
bleeding has stopped.

I mean, through all the tests...

Are you trying to
say she's healed,

aren't you, doctor?

Oh... Oh, Lord.

Oh, my little Kyla,
she's healed, ha, ha.

Yes, ma'am, she is. Completely.

She's healed, Ranger.

And for no scientific,
understandable reason.

I simply can't explain it.

It's pretty hard to explain
the power of faith, doctor.

Oh, thank you, Thank you.

Ha, ha, ha.

At first it was
hurting real bad.

And I was afraid
I was gonna die.

But then I didn't feel anything.

Nothing at all, except peaceful.

It was like rising
out of the darkness

and into the light.

Such beautiful light.

That's where I met my angel,
so it must have been heaven.

Your angel? KYLA: Mm-hm.

I wish you can
see her like I do.

She's beautiful.

She told me I had
to come back here.

I didn't want to.

It was so beautiful
and peaceful there.

But she said it was important

and that you'd help.

That I'd help? KYLA: Mm-hm.

To do what?

Stop the killing and
save the neighborhood.

Well, Kyla,

how I can help is if you can
describe those men for me

that were in the car.

My angel says don't
worry about any of that.

It'll all be taken care of.

Hey, Walker, I checked out

that Bobby Miller
through Metro Gang Unit.

His address is 1437 Lynch
Street, apartment 10 C.

Thanks, Trivette. I'm on my way.

You ain't found yourself.

- Stop it, okay?
- Shut your damn mouth.

No, leave him alone.
Get back, Bobby. No.

What are you doing to him?

Hey.

Ranger, you saw.

I was just defending myself
against this damn gangbanger.

You his father?

He ain't nothing to me.

I'm Bobby's mother.

You all right, ma'am?

She's fine.

We scuffled is all.

Nobody hit nobody.

Ain't that right, baby?

Tell him.

Um, nobody did nothing
to get arrested for.

So I guess I'll go
on back inside.

I'll pick up my things
tomorrow, Mama.

Bobby, please...
Please. No need for that.

Hey, Bobby?

What you doing down here,
Walker? What you want?

What do I want?

I want the violence in
this neighborhood to stop.

And what's that
got to do with me?

Well, right now, you're
part of the problem.

What I'd like is for you to
be a part of the solution.

And how is that, man?

Snitching on my set?
Turn in my homeys? No.

If you don't break
off from them,

you're gonna wind up
in jail or the cemetery.

That's the way it is, old
man. You can't change that.

See, my daddy was in a gang,
and his daddy was in a gang too.

And they both went down
out in the street, man, all right?

You saw, man. You saw
what I'm dealing with here.

I got one real family,
one real home.

B3 Dukes.

If that's what
you really believe,

you're gonna wind up
dead before you're 20.

I hope I am.

It was here, just
half a block away

from singing in the church choir

that 10-year-old Kyla
Jarvis was gunned down

during a drive-by shooting.

The bullets were
of large caliber

and caused extensive damage.

At best, Kyla's chances
of recovery were very slim.

But Kyla Jarvis did
recover, and fully.

Not six months or a year later,

but a mere eight
hours after her surgery.

Kyla's cubicle suddenly
just filled with light.

A really weird light.

It just lasted a short
time, but I'll never forget it.

It was incredible.
A miracle, I guess.

Like a really
incredible miracle.

"A really incredible miracle."

Tomorrow morning, Kyla
Jarvis checks out of St. Mary's

just two days
after she was shot.

I'll be there to bring
any further developments

of her amazing story.

This is special assignment
reporter Sharon Stafford

reporting from the
'hood in Dallas, Texas.

And the angel brought me back
home and she said she would stay

as long as it took
to stop the killing

and save our neighborhoods.

What does this angel
of yours look like, Kyla?

She's beautiful, like heaven,
where she comes from.

She's gonna teach us how
to be real neighbors again.

Yeah, right.

How does your angel

plan to make that happen?

Well, we're gonna
be asking people

around Beall Avenue and Third

to come to Fallon Park
on Easter Sunday morning.

And by getting everyone
together, we can show

how different people can
become friends and change things.

Because if we
believe hard enough,

then anything is possible.

And we can use all
the help we can get

from you people in TV and
newspapers and stuff, okay?

And remember: Sunday
morning at Fallon Park.

- All right, let's go.
- Thanks, Kyla.

Thank you. REPORTER
2: Thanks, sweetheart.

Thank you all for your support.

Yeah, I don't know
if she's real or not,

but, uh, angels
are hot this year

and, uh... Well, I
think it's a great story.

You're an idiot.

Man, you see that
little girl on TV?

She major tripping, talking
about angels and stuff

and saving the neighborhood.

Walker said she was
dying and now she's fine.

You call that tripping,
Devon? Shut up!

Both of y'all, I want you
to just shut the hell up.

What we gotta worry about now

is her identifying us.

Now, come on, y'all. She
ain't nothing but a little girl.

Didn't I tell you to shut up?

That little girl can
put you away for life.

Now, she saw us.

What you wanna do?

You wanna wait for the day

that she walks up and
points her finger at you

and tells that Ranger
that you was the one

that pulled the trigger? Huh?

No.

That what you wanna do?

No, man.

Good.

Step off me.

What is going on here?

You think Kyla believes she
can change that neighborhood?

She seems to think so,
with the help of an angel.

So, what you're saying is,

she's on a mission
from God or something.

Trivette, you didn't see
the light shining in her room.

I mean, here was
a girl that was dying.

The doctor said she had no hope.

Then all of a
sudden she's healed.

How do you figure?

A miracle.

Well, for want of a
better word, yeah.

With enough love,
anything is possible."

Well, I sure know
that last part is true.

But, um, little sister,

you gotta be crazy
running these bad streets.

Ah, ha, ha,

I see what you're
saying, girlfriend.

If you're crazy,
then so am I, huh?

Mm-hm.

First that kid shot
dead at my door,

then last night
was the final straw

for me, Leon.

That guy who robbed me,

he had a gun pointed
at my head right here.

The next time could
be the last time.

I'm not saying you
gotta do it alone, Frank.

We'd be right alongside
you. Me, Clete, all of us.

Oh, yeah, sure,
against the Dukes. Right.

Don't leave,
Mr. Narzino. Please.

Wait a second. Who
are all these people?

Just stay for a
little bit longer.

What for, huh, Kyla?

What, so I can get robbed
again like I did last night?

You give me one good reason.

For the miracle at Fallon Park.

The miracle at
Fallon Park, right.

Where decent
people can't even walk

down the street
in broad daylight.

Where there's been 16
killings in the past year.

Then help us do
something about it.

If folks like you stay and help,
then there will be a miracle.

Don't run away, Mr. Narzino.

We need you.

Yes.

Listen to her.

Okay, Kyla.

If you got the guts, then
so does Frank Narzino.

I'll give it a little more time.

Oh, I'm glad you're better, kid.

Kyla!

You come back here.

It's okay, Grandma.

Yo, lo, what did she say?

"I forgive you."

She said what?

She said, "I forgive you."

Kyla's hanging up
flyers all over your place.

Look, Mabel, I know Kyla

believes in all this,
but let's be honest.

Only miracle will be
if anybody shows up.

You know, you have just
about gotten on my last nerve.

How you can fix
your lips to just

shoot down a
little girl's faith.

You got to fight fire with
fire, Mabel, not fairy tales.

You're wrong, Leon. So,
what do we do, Walker?

I'll tell you what you do. You
start a neighborhood watch.

- A neighborhood watch?
- Yes, Leon.

We can make this neighborhood
a better place to live in.

Show every
neighborhood in the country

what you can do, if
people work together.

Whether or not you
believe in Kyla's angel or not,

that's not important,
but her message is.

You don't stop
gangs with violence,

but with caring.

Mr. Walker, can you help me?

Coming, Kyla.

Well, you've got them
everywhere. Ha, ha.

Ready?

Okay.

Let's go, man.

Oh! Kyla?

You okay, Kyla?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Kyla?

Oh, baby.

I'm okay.

It's that Ranger. I
want that dude. Let's go.

Man, you're crazy.

I said, let's go!

If they're trying to kill
Kyla, she must be right.

Get out. Get down.

Okay, me and mine are with you.

Just a short while ago, unless
you were a gang member,

this park was a no man's land
of drug dealing and gun battles.

But today, things are
beginning to change.

Slowly but surely, the average

hard-working people
of this neighborhood

are beginning to
take their first steps

in reclaiming what
is rightfully theirs.

According to Mr. Barlow here,

this is a neighborhood
problem and the people...

That's right, it's a
neighborhood problem,

and there ain't enough
cops on the streets

to solve this thing. I
mean, for way too long,

we've been
depending on the city,

the county, and
the state to take care

of all the crime and
stuff, but that's over.

At least here, anyway.
We doing it ourselves,

because you can't stop
these gangs with violence.

You got to stop
them with caring.

Um, thank you, Mr. Barlow.

But the question remains,

can a 10-year-old girl
bring about any real change

in her crime-ridden
neighborhood?

My angel told me
that we gotta believe.

We gotta have faith that
things can change for the better.

Mm-hm. Hope. You
know what I mean.

That things don't have to
stay the way they are now.

That's right. We
can change our world

one way or the other, one
neighborhood at a time.

Because if we
believe hard enough,

then anything
really is possible.

Yeah.

You'll see, I promise.

This Sunday at Fallon Park.

Leon Barlow's
neighborhood watch group,

just a few days old and
already numbering nearly 50,

and the men are deeply involved
in monitoring the neighborhood

and providing adult supervision
for the neighborhood youth.

Are miracles possible in
this cynical 20th century,

and can faith still
move mountains?

With just a few days left
before Easter Sunday,

we media cynics
will soon find out.

See how brazen these boys are?

Look at that. Look
at that. Oh, boy.

Mm-hm. Yeah,
that's him, that's him.

- Is that him?
- Mm-hm.

Oh, yeah, he been
working at it. Yeah. Mm-hm.

Okay, here he goes.

That's Little Mac's brother.

We got enough on
him now, you know?

Ah, there's something
going on with... Yeah.

That one there, he's Red Bone.

All right, we got it. - Mm-hm.

We got it all, right here.

Now, that was your boy,
right? You collared him.

Right out in the open.

No, they don't care. - No.

Yeah, I remember her.

Man, that ought
to do it, Walker.

You did good, Leon.

You mean you can use it?

You bet we can.

All right. Yes.

Heads up, I got two
guys in a convertible.

Get 'em out of the car.

Go, go, go!

Yo, I don't wanna hear it.

They arrested all of
them last night, man.

Joker, Red Bone, and
then... I said, shut up!

Yo, Zack, he's just telling
you how it is, man. That's it.

Look at them over there.

Laughing, playing, having fun,

thinking they safe.

Higher!

Man, we gonna lose this 'hood
if we don't start hitting back!

Man, how you gonna hit
back with that videotape

all up in your grill?

They want to videotape?

Yeah, I'll give them
something to videotape.

Damn.

Trivette.

They made their move.

You're dead, old man.

You'd better think
twice, Russell.

Kyla, get out of the way, honey.

The Lord is my
shepherd, I shall not want.

He maketh me lie
down in green pastures.

He leadeth me
beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul.

He leadeth me in the
paths of righteousness

for his name's sake.

Yea, thou I walk
through the valley

of the shadow of death,

I shall fear no evil,
for thou art with me.

I think you'd better
get out of here, Russell.

Thy rod and thy
staff, they comfort me.

I think you'd best back
off. This is bigger than you.

Come on, let's blazé.

I'm telling you, ain't no way

we're getting thrown
out of this park.

So we gotta take
back what's ours.

Yeah.

All this hoping and
praising and singing

and all this mess has gotta
stop. We at the end of this.

We gotta fight to the end,
yo. You know what I'm saying?

Or we done.

There it is, man.

And the only way to stop
it is where it starts, right?

We got to dig up the
root and we gotta kill it.

Right. Right?

No... No, man.

They're gonna get what's
theirs, but first things first.

See, that little
girl and her angel

and that praise-singing
grandma of hers started all this.

Yeah.

Mama, don't cry.

He's gone, Robert.

Jackson's gone.

It's just you and me, baby.

Bobby, I think you've
become part of the solution.

Not all the way.

Not anymore, you're not.
