"Oh! Go put your hands up, up in the sky Put your hands up, up in the sky Say, "Go, China! Go, China! Go!" Coop yelled into the microphone as she jumped around the stage getting the crowd hyped for Chine to come on stage.

"Go, China! Go, China! Go!" The crowd shouted back to Coop.

"Say, "Go, China! Go, China! Go!" Coop told the crowd again as China walked on stage and started to rap.

"Coming straight out of Crenshaw Crazy little chick named China But cross me, and my haters come and find you No practice, we get access No respite, deal with it Sorry, fellas. The shop's closed. We ain't here for no haircut, but we definitely gonna take a cut. When I was coming up, I ain't have much So I like to live it up, not average I like trips to Spain, Dubai, Paris..."  China rapped

—-Meanwhile At Alvin's Barbershop—-

After his conversation with Coop Shawn finally went over to Alvin's barbershop to get the money that he had stashed away there bringing some of his friends with him to back him up.

"Sorry, fellas. The shop's closed." Shawn told some of the crew members from the opposing gang as he saw them walking up making him throw the bag of money he had in his car.

"We ain't here for no haircut but we definitely gonna take a cut," Bonez said pulling out his gun and making Shawn's friends pull out there's.

"Just walk away and let me take what's mine," Shawn said

"The problem is, what's yours is ours now." One of the other gang members told Shawn as he held up his gun making Shawn take his out then all of a sudden shots were fired making everyone at the block party panic and run to safety while Coop thought about Shawn and ran toward the shots.

—-At The Block Party—-

"Coop!" Spencer yelled to Coop as she ran toward the barbershop coming just in time to see who was shot which was Bonez the guy who was at the barbershop the day before making her start to walk toward Shawn's apartment.

"Hey, Coop, Coop! Where are you going?" Spencer asked

"I'm going to look for Shawn, man. He could be hurt, anything. I got to know he cool." Coop said

"He ain't cool," Madison said

"That's a dead body over there at Alvin's shop," Spencer said

"Look, Shawn was trying to do the right thing. Both of his boys are responsible for this." Coop said

"And how do you know that for sure?" Madison asked Coop

"Look, Shawn shouldn't have been messing with Alvin's in the first place. Why are you doing this?" Spencer said standing in front of Coop making her stop walking.

"What am I gonna do? Y'all don't have no idea what's going down in the hood right now." Coop said

"What's that supposed to mean?" Madison asked

"You told us to go to Beverly, all right?" Spencer told Coop

"That's what I do. I look out for my people. And despite what y'all think of Shawn.." Coop said

"I think he's going to get you killed," Madison said making Coop start to walk off.

"Coop," Spencer said making Coop stop.

"Believe in him...The same way I believe in you." Coop said

"He's a thug, all right? He's a thug. What's it gonna take for you to finally let him go? What? Do you want to be under one of those sheets? 'Cause whatever's coming for him is coming for you, too, all right? And it's just a matter of time before they show up at my house, putting my family in danger, and that can't happen." Spencer yelled
