[ JUST LET HIM GO ]
"welcome to crackhead wasteland." sarah said.
"i don't know about this, man." pope says. "dude, why are we at barry's?"
"this will only take a second." jj said, opening the drivers side door.
"where are you going?" john b says as the blonde boy walked toward the house.
"yo soy justicia." jj says.
"did you glean anything from that?"
"maya, what are you waiting for?" john b said.
"i'm going, i'm going." maya said, getting out of the van and going toward the house.
"jj, what are you doing?" maya asked, john b close behind her.
"well, as thou hath stealeth from us, we shall stealeth from ye." jj said.
"that kind of got lost in translation." john b said.
"he said he wants an eye for an eye, basically."
"h-how—" john b whispered, not knowing how she understands jj's incoherent speak half the time.
"jj, no." maya said.
"it's only right, my." jj said, trying to go past her and john b.
"what happens after you rob a drug dealer, jj? huh? he knows who we are." john b said.
"i'm not scared of this guy." jj says, going toward the bedroom.
"jj!"
maya exhaled sharply as she shared a look with john b before muttering, "this boy will be the death of me."
"there we go." jj says.
"jj, what are you doing?" maya said from the kitchen.
"getting even!" jj said then walking back into the kitchen with a bag. "business is taken care of."
"hey, look at me!" john b grabbed jj, "if you keep on going down this road, you're gonna end up just like your dad. do—"
"you watch your mouth, man." jj said through gritted teeth.
"guys..."
"aren't you tired of being messed with?" jj asked john b, ignoring the pink haired girl.
"that's not the point, jj." john b said.
"'cause i am." jj says.
"jj, we can't—" maya followed jj out of the trailer with john b behind her.
"alright, so we're looking at about five grand each for reparations of putting us through that bullshit." jj cut off maya, ignoring her yet again. "sorry 'bout that, y'all."
"so that's what we're doing now? we're robbing drug dealers?" kei said.
"this barry guy's gonna find out and he's gonna after us." sarah said.
"yes, he will." pope says. "this is not the time to start wildin' out."
"jj, we can't do this." maya said.
"how did you guys like having a gun pulled on you?" jj said.
"relax." john b said.
"he had it right here on you, bro." jj says.
"look, we've got to go get the gold." john b said. "just give me that shit."
when john b tried to take the money, jj pinned him against the van.
"jj." maya said.
"do you feel like a tough guy? huh?" john b said, "what are you gonna do when he comes for us?
"we punch him in the throat."
"yeah, good fuckin' idea, jj."
"i'm not putting it back" jj said, getting into the van but no one else did. "you guys getting in or what?" no one said anything or moved and jj came out of the van a few moments later. "what?"
"we're sick of your shit." john b said.
"oh, my shit?"
"yeah, yeah."
"yeah, your shit." kei said. "your pulling guns on people shit."
"you acting like a manic—"
"pope, i took the fall for you, man!" jj cut off pope. "you know how much money i owe because of you?"
"i'm gonna pay you back, and i didn't even ask you to do that!" pope said.
"i just did pay it back. right here, right now, by myself." jj walked back to the van, "you know what? that's exactly what i'm gonna do. go off by myself."
"jj!" pope and maya both said.
"hey, wait."
"just let him go."
maya sighed, wanting nothing but to go after the boy and bring him into a tight hug.
