Bo, it's Mr. Granger.
I called as soon as I heard.
I'm so sorry.
I know I've
never met your mom,
but if you were any
reflection of her,
she must have been
someone really special.
I just want you to know, uh,
I understand the pain
you're feeling right now.
It feels kind of like
the world is ending.
And when I've
been in that spot,
I just wish someone
had been there to tell me
to not let the now
disrupt the future.
That scholarship proves you're one
in a million, Bo, don't forget that.
I'm here if you need anything.
Don't ever hesitate to call.

BO: Okay.
That the one you want?
You could swap it out.
Yeah,
I'll keep this one.
All right, can you show
everyone what card you have?
Not me, just show
everyone what you have.
Sweet, so I want you to put
that card in your shirt pocket,
really make sure there's no
way I can see it or touch it.
All right, all right, so I'm gonna
take another card, all right?
Four of hearts.
Now, go ahead and hold
your hand over your card.
Really make sure there's
no way lcantouchit
Yeah, for sure.
Oh, wait.
Ah, you were just a little too
slow, so you should have my heart.
VVeHd,uh,does anyone
else have the card?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God!
No way!
(LAUGHING)
That's insane.
How did you do it?
BO: As you can see, there's
no string at all, all right?
What's your name?
Uh, Holly.
You can grab it, Holly.
How did you do that?
You ready, T?
Yeah.
All done for the day.
What you reading?
Hatchet.
Oh, okay.
I read that forever ago.
I almost cried when he first...
Stop!
I'm only
three chapters in.
Oh, my bad.
My bad.
(CHUCKLES)
Let's head out.
Okay.
TINA: You about to ruin my book.
BO: I had
a long day today.
Made this ring levitate in
front of this girl's face.
Remember the trick I showed you?
Uh-huh.
(DOOR OPENS)

Hey, what's up?
Hey, are you
around tonight?
Yeah, you working?
Urn, yeah, I'm making
Tina dinner now,
but if you wouldn't mind
getting her to bed?
Yeah, no problem.
(SIGHS IN RELIEF)
You have a good day?
I did, yeah.
I just got back
from Graffiti,
finished a whole
chapter,
which somehow feels like
I've been to w*r and back.
If I stare at the page for one more
second, my eyes are gonna bleed.
You'?
Nothing,
it was fine.
Okay. Well, I'm
gonna take a shower
real quick and
then I'll be over.
Okay, thank you.
(MUSIC PLAYING)
Yo.
There he is.
What up, Bo?
What's up, man?
Hello.
What's up, buddy?
What's up, dude?
Luna's in the office.
Okay.
(LUNA PLAYING GUITAR INSIDE)
Luna.
Bo.
Thank God. I'm having an
"I need dr*gs" situation.
(LAUGHS)
Get in here.
I mean, DJs? I don't
know what they're doing.
They will ask for a blow-up
doll two months in advance
and then dr*gs day of.
Like, I don't know
how I'm supposed to
turn that around
for you, buddy.
This what your ride
is gonna look like?
Oh, God, no.
I'm a beer and pizza gal.
This? This is nonsense.
I am so over this gig.
Me, too. Later.
Yeah. Cheers, dude. Be well.
All right.
Oh, so, we don't get a trick?
Oh.
What's that?
It's my wallet!
He just gave me
my f*cking wallet.
(LAUGHS) You...
When the hell
did he take it?
Later.
This is my phone! What the hell!
(LAUGHS)
What are you
laughing at?
NOAH: Are you Bo?
Yeah, get in.
Okay.
Hey. Hi,
I'm, uh, Noah.
I got your number
from some friends.
NOAH: So, it's, uh, $60?
For three. Yeah.
Three. Can I ask, is it
one molly per person?
Or should I... Do you
think I should get more?
Do you sell coke?
Can I also get coke?
Can you even do
molly with coke?
I met these girls, and it's kind
of cool to know a guy, you know?
Sounds kind of dumb
when you say it, but...
Hey, listen, man,
whatever you want.
But, honestly, don't buy
dr*gs to impress girls.
I'll take
the molly though.
$60.
MAN: The ATM would
only give me $100.
I know we said three,
but I've got $100 here.
Um, that's no worries,
I can give you five for...
One...

What are you doing back here? VVhat'd
you just have in your hands?
Uh, nothing...
Nothing, sir.
Why did he
take off running?
I think he was
just scared, sir.
If I search your pockets, am I
gonna find anything illegal?
No, sir.
Turn around.
Hands on your head.
Interlace your fingers.
VVhere'd you put it? I saw you
stash something in your pocket.
I don't know what you're talking
about, sir. I don't have anything.
You put something
in your pocket!
I don't have
anything, sir.
See anything?
Get the f*ck
out of here.

(HIP-HOP MUSIC

You have been
doing good.
Keep it up and these assholes
will be working for you one day.
Everything else good?
Yeah, justdeahng the sh*t out.
Nothing much else
really going on.
Okay.
You got a girl
these days?
Nah, just
my little sister.
(LAUGHS)
Well, actually, I'm meeting
with this girl tomorrow.
It's our
first time out.
No sh*t.
Where'd you meet her?
Just out and about.
Ooh! Attaboy.
You know what?
First date is on me.
No,no,no,
I can%takethaL
Oh, please,
no worries, man.
I was wondering if you could
do me a favor though?
You still selling
over at Daedalus?
Yeah,
it's my biggest pull.
I've been hearing there's a new
coke supplier in the area.
They got someone
selling there, too.
You mind keeping
an eye out?
Sure.
Perfect.
I just need the name
of the supplier.
Well, I'll let you
know what I find out.
Sounds good.
Have fun
on that date.
Thanks.
All right.
(CLUB MUSIC PLAYING)
Hey, did that guy
just buy from you?
No.
No? Well, it looked like
he just bought from you.
Nah, man, I think
you're mistaken.
Oh, come on, I'm just trying to
party, have a good time, you know.
Sorry. Sorry, man.
Well, I mean, all that money,
I'm sure you've got something.
I don't got
anything for you.
Come on, man...
lsaid...
I said
I can't help you.
Fine.
f*cking punk ass.
(SIGHS)
Yo.
Look like the supplier's
name is Maurice.
Yep.
(EXHALES)
Hey.
Hey.
Uh...
Good to see you again.
We really didn't get a
chance to meet last time.
Hence me giving
you my number.
Right.
(CHUCKLES)
Yeah, I was just
getting off work,
that day when I
saw you performing.
So, you work
on Larchmont?
Yeah, yeah,
Crumbs bakery.
I sell giant cupcakes
a couple days a week,
but I'm at community college
racking up credits.
Awesome.
Oh, uh, here, sorry.
Thank you.
So, you do magic?
I mean, a little.
I'm getting pretty good at it.
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
You know, I have never seen
a cute magician before.
I'm starving.
He sent a card on my birthday,
but that's about it.
I haven't seen him
in about a year.
Yeah, he moved out fast.
Like, crazy fast.
Well, I mean, at least Arizona's not
that far if you wanted to visit.
That's what he said.
Yeah.
Ifsfunnythough, 'cause,Hke,
I get it, you know.
Like, my mom has
always been a handful.
And Arizona, it's far enough away
for him to get away from her,
but close enough to
still come see me.
Not that he does,
but whatever.
Itdoesn%
really bother me,
but my mom is definitely still
dealing with the whole thing.
And she really
needs me right now.
But once my mom is better,
I can figure out where I
wanna finish up school.
Mmm.
God, I'm sorry. I feel like
I've been talking for hours.
No, I asked. It's fine.
What about you?
Well, my dad passed a while back,
and my mom passed last year,
so it's just me and my little
sister, Tina, the love of my life.
She's such
a smart kid, you know.
I just wish I
can move her into
a neighborhood
with a better school.
Yeah. Surround her
with better people.
(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)
Yeah.
Uh, she's gonna be something big.
I know it. (DISCONNECTS)
(CELL PHONE VIBRATES)
(DISCONNECTS)
I grew up in
a school district,
and,honesHy, except for one
teacher I had, nobody oared.
And I just...
(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)
Do you need to get that?
No.
It's fine.
Get it if you need to.
Okay, it'll just
be a second.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Totally, man.
Yeah.
I'll be right there.
No, it's cool.
(SIGHS) I'm the worst.
I'm sorry, I gotta go.
Society of magic ruining
a perfectly good first date?
(CHUCKLES) I'm sorry.
(CHUCKLES) I'm kidding,
it's fine.
I promise.
Let's do this again, though.
Please.
Ought to be good enough
for you, young buok.
Hey. Ready?
What's going on?
Found out where
this Maurice guy lives.
Homie moves into our backyard and
starts selling coke like I don't exist.
I mean, we're gonna
pay him a little visit.
(g*ng LAUGHS)
Talk to him about etiquette.
Let's go.
Put that sh*t out.
Smoke after.
PACKY: Yeah, put that sh*t
out, man, smoke it after.
MAURICE: What the f*ck?
PACKY: Sit down, loser!
Sit down!
Maurice, right?
Check to make sure
no one else is here.
(g*n COCKS)
Get up.
So, here's what I
don't understand.
You moved to this neighborhood,
started selling,
and never thought to
introduce yourself?
(SCOFFS) Man, listen, I don't
give a f*ck about who you are.
See, that's the problem
with kids like you.
You come out hot-tempered
and bad-mannered.
There's no respect.
I don't even know you.
And I don't need
to know you.
Maurice, now don't
play me like that.
You can't say
you've never heard of me,
because you guys are out
there telling people
that your sh*t
is cheaper than mine.
So, you know me well enough
to compare yourself.
That's not good business.
Where the f*ck
do you come from
where people do
business like that?
West Covina?
Yo... You know what?
Why don't you just get the
f*ck outta here, old man?
Here, here, here,
take some chips with you.
(LAUGHING)
Oh, sh*t.
Wow! What...
(LAUGHING) I mean...
That's what
we're gonna do now.
Okay. See, even your boys
are talking like you.
(GRUNTS)
Sit the f*ck down! Now!
You gotta lead
by example.
(GROANS)
(BOTH GRUNTING)
(GROANS AND COUGHS)
Maurice. Maurice.
You and I, we could be friends.
We really could.
And if you don't like me, we
could at least be co-workers.
And we both know you don't always
have to like your co-workers.
So, your options.
You can go back to wherever
the f*ck you came from,
or you can get comfortable, stay right
here, sell my sh*t, and kick me 30%.
(MAN GROANING)
Think about it.
Let me know.
All this weed
and no snacks?
Man, this party's whack.
f*ck!
(CLATTERING)
Man, get the f*ck up.
RAMONE: That g*n slipped out of
your hand like some cartoon sh*t.
We gotta put sticky
tape on it next time.
(ALL LAUGH)
(HIP-HOP MUSIC
PLAYING ON CAR STEREO)
Yo, you're one of my boys now.
Word?
BO: I never thought
it'd get dangerous.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER ON TV)
You guys never done
something like this before?
A stick-up? No.
Hell no. And that's
what I liked about Angelo.
I mean, he didn't seem
like the gangbanger.
Just a cool guy who'd help me make
money off kids who wanted to party.
I don't know, this is
turning into something
I would've
never signed up for.
And I thought this whole
thing would be temporary.
I mean, a year flashes by
and I'm still a drug dealer.
I need to get out
of this, Georgi.
Now.
BO: Eight of clubs, okay?
Keep it facing me.
So, the card is
gonna stay in your hand.
I'm not messing with it.
This is all you.
All right. So, I need you
to name another card.
Any card besides
the eight of clubs.
Three of diamonds?
Three of diamonds.
You sure?
You can change your mind. You're
making all the decisions.
Three of diamonds.
Okay.
Turn it around.
MAN: Oh, my...
WOMAN: No way!
(LAUGHS)
Are you kidding me?
(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)
Uh, 'new.
HOLLY". Hey, what's up?
Not much.
What are you up to?
Just out performing.
Are you working tonight?
Yeah.
Cool, where at?
Uh,NoHo, maybe hit
CityWalk in a bit.
Tourists love magic.
Damn, I was just,
you know,
seeing if you wanted to
catch a movie or something.
Uh, maybe tomorrow night,
though?
I could make you
dinner maybe?
All right.
Are you gonna be working?
loan pick you up.
Perfect. Oh, sh*t, I have a customer.
Text me.
(CALL DISCONNECTS)
Oh, oh...
Okay, any one
you want, all right?
WOMAN: Okay.
I want you to sign
your name on that card.
You don't need to
hide it from me,
we all should know
which one is yours.
(WOMAN CHUCKLES)
Shuffle your card into the deck.
Get it lost in there.
Perfect.
And there's a lot of things in
our lives that can trap us.
It could be a person,
a problem.
There're so many things
that can wall us in.
But these barriers
only exist if we let them.
We can do whatever we want if
we just believe we're able to.
There's a card in here
with your name on it, right?
Uh-huh.
Let's say
51 of these cards
are too scared to
trust themselves.
Too afraid to believe that they
can do whatever they want.
Okay.
Now, your card,
your card knows
there's no wall,
no limit, no barrier.
Okay.
Is that your card?
Oh, my God.
No, it's not.
(LAUGHING)
So, where did you meet?
On Larchmont.
He was performing
outside my work.
I like your nose ring.
Thanks.
I want one,
but Bo says they're ugly.
Oh, does he?
He said so.
So, is Bo your boyfriend?
Uh, we actually
just kind of met.
Do you have a boyfriend?
Yeah.
Three of them.
Three?
Who are these boys?
Jacob, Elijah and Daniel.
(TINA CHUCKLES)
I'm gonna die alone.
(ALL LAUGH)
I thought
boys might like you.
Well, you need to let them
know you got a big brother
who'll b*at them up
if they ever get rude.
Okay.
(ALL CHUCKLE)
GEORGY. So, she's a
lot cooler than you.
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
I have no idea
how this happened.
Yeah, well, family dinner is a
totally normal second date.
Good job there.
Was that bad?
You're fine.
You guys are cute.
(KNOCKING AT DOOR)
Yo.
You weren't
picking up.
Oh, my bad. My phone is
charging in my room.
Oh, my bad.
Hello there, ladies.
I'm Angelo.
I work with Bo.
Hi, I'm Tina.
I'm Holly.
Georgi.
Very nice to meet you.
You must be
Bo's little sister?
Yeah, and Holly is
maybe-Bo's-girlfriend.
And Georgi's our friend.
(ANGELO CHUCKLES)
Well, you have a good one
on your hands here.
I'm so sorry for interrupting, but I
just need to talk with Bo for a minute.
Chat outside, real quick?
Yeah.
What's up?
So, that m*therf*cker Maurice didn't
take my warning too seriously.
The dude's back out
there selling again.
Like, really, man?
We hear he's partying nearby. Ought
to catch him on his way out.
Right now?
We're in the car.
Hurry up.
(CAR ENGINE ROARS)
(PLAYING HARMONICA)
(GIRLS GIGGLING)
Uh, hey, guys-
I have to head out
with Angelo for a second.
I like him.
Um, can you watch Tina
for, like, a few hours?
Yeah.
I can stay, too.
I mean, I don't wanna put
you out or anything,
I'm sure you've
got things to do.
I don't mind.
Honestly, I'd rather
stay if that's cool?
Please stay.
We'll see you
when you get back.
Thanks.
Hey. What was
he doing here?
TINA: Yeah. It's weird.
HOLLY: Yep.
It's cool.
Always the same with me.
Why are we leaving?
It was fun.
'Cause I'm f*cking tired.
You can stay if you want to.
I don't even care.
You're my ride.
Well, then I guess
it's time to go home.
(WOMAN SCREAMS)
(GRUNTS) God damn it.
MAURICE: f*ck! f*ck!

(ENGINE STARTS)
Grab the tarp
from under the sink.
I thought we
had a deal, man?
Man, we had no deal
about nothing.
See, this is why I
f*cking kidnapped you.
Look, man, if it's about
a percentage, then fine.
Homie, homie, homie. This is not
about a percentage anymore.
You are here because
we made an agreement,
and then you decided
that you were above it.
Now, how the f*ck you think
that makes me feel?
Put the tarp down.
You right-handed
or left-handed?
Am I what?
Are you right-handed
or left-handed?
I'm a leftie.
A southpaw?
Ifeelhke
you're f*ckin' lying.
Maybe not.
Tighten that
around his left arm.
In oase you're wondering, I'm
not gonna k*ll you tonight.
You know what they used to do to
liars and thieves back in the day?
Wait, wait.
Hey! Come on, man, wait.
They'd cut a hand off.
Spread 'em out.
Wait... Come on, man.
Wait, what are you...
As clean as you can.
What?
As clean as you can.
No.
Why the f*ck not?
I can't. I'm sorry.
Hey, Bo! This dude
does not respect us.
He doesn't give
a f*ck about us.
And if we don't show him who
we are, he will come after us.
Whose side
are you on, Bo?
Come on. Come on, Bo. Come on.
Come on, man.
Please, please, please.
Don't do this, man, please.
Okay?
I'm asking you.
Please don't do it, man.
Come on, donfidoit man, please.
Please, please, no, don't
do it, man, please.
Please, man,
don't do it, okay?
Please, man,
don't do this, I'm beggin'.
Let's go.
(SHAKILY) Come on, please,
please, please, please, please.
ANGELO:
His hand or yours, Bo.
Please don't do this. Please,
please, please. I'm begging you.
Please, please,
don't do this.
Bo!
(SCREAMING)
f*ck!
You're gonna have to
do it harder than that.
(GASPING)
(SCREAMING) No!
(CLEAVER THUDDING)
No!
(SCREAMING AND CRYING)
There you go.
(GASPING)
(sesame)
You're f*cking done.
If I hear that
you're selling again,
I'm gonna k*ll you
and every person you know.
Now, get the f*ck
out of my house.
(RETCHING)
Let's go.
(HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING)
ANGELO: There's
gonna be a little more
business with Maurice
out of the picture.
You can handle
a key, right?
Yeah. Of course.
Boom.
Your normal
re-up's in there, too,
but you're gonna be working
with a lot more money,
so pay attention.
(MUSIC CONTINUES
ON CAR STEREO)
Oh...
I'm having a party at
the crib this weekend.
You should come through.
Bring your girl if you want.
If not, a bunch
will already be there.
Word.
(ENGINE ROARS)
Hey.
Hey.
Why don't you
take my bed?
You don't need to
sleep on the couch.
Oh, shut up.
We can sleep
in the same bed.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER ON TV)
Hey, uh, you want
a T-shirt or something?
Yeah, sure.
Hey, uh, thanks for
watching T tonight.
(TINA HUMMING)
Oh, um,
what kind of cookies are you going to make?
Or are you gonna make a cake?
What makes you think
I'm baking something?
Because you have two
boxes of baking soda.
(CHUCKLES)
Oh, uh...
I'm not sure. We'll
figure out something.
GEORGI: Holy sh*t.
How much is that?
BO: It's almost two kilos.
One of Angelo's
cut with baking soda.
This is a bad idea.
Selling all this, I could
pay Angelo his cut
and still walk
away with $15,000.
That's enough money
to get out.
Evenifyou
sell all this,
you really think Angelo's
gonna letyouleave?
(SIGHS)
I don't know.
I hope.
I know it's not my
place to say this,
but there's no one else
here to say it to you.
I don't want you
to do this.
It's too dangerous.
I'm sorry.
It's already done.
Hey!
I'd like to re-up.
Or reorder.
(CLEARS TH ROAT)
Hey.
Wait, what?
What happened?
Where are you?
I can come over.
No, that's fine.
I'll meet you
at my place.
Hey.
Hey.
Thanks.
(SNIFFLES)
She doesn't mean it.
It's just the divorce
that's still hurting her.
And I don't know,
when she drinks,
she just has a hard
time moving on. It's...
But she hits you.
I mean, I saw your
bruises the other night.
No one deserves that.
You can stay here as
long as you need to.
I mean, it's not
the Four Seasons,
but we try to keep
it pretty clean...
Sorry. (CHUCKLES)
I'm never the girl with the
mascara running down her face.
Thank you.
(EXHALES)
Morning.
You sleep okay?
What is that?
What?
That thing
in your arm?
Oh, uh...
It's part of an effect.
But what is it?
Hlooks
kind of infected.
BO: It's not that bad.
Bo, for a magic trick?
Why would you do
that to yourself?
The first time I ever saw a magic
trick, I was with my mom and dad
on the Venice Boardwalk.
And there was this guy, this old Italian
guy with this little Jack Russell.
He had this small
stand where he performed.
He did a lot of
card and coin stuff,
but there was
this one thing he did
that just stuck
with me forever.
He took a pocket Kn*fe and pressed
it into the center of his hand.
It went through his skin
with a hard push.
Popped through
the other side.
He held his hand
right in front of my face.
It didn't make
any sense, you know.
It looked like it was
going straight through.
So, he asked me
to pull it out.
So, I grabbed the Kn*fe,
and it just slid right out.
When he showed me his hand,
there was no blood, no hole.
Nothing to say
that there was just
a freaking Kn*fe
stabbed through his hand.
My 7-year-old brain
was just exploding...
(EXHALES)
So I asked him.
I asked him
how he did it.
What'd he say?
He said he could only share his
secrets with other magicians.
I went back last year and saw
that he was still there.
I showed him a few tricks, we
talked shop for a little bit.
And I told him the same exact
story I just told you.
Did he tell you
how he did the trick?
It wasn't a trick.
It was real.
I mean, for a year, this guy
stabbed a Kn*fe through his hand.
Each time, he cut a little deeper,
let the scar tissue grow.
Then do it again.
After a while, he had stabbed a
clean hole straight through.
And because of the scar
tissue, there was no blood.
So, when he performed,
he just covered
his hands with
a little bit of latex
andifdlook
like brand-new skin.
That's the effect.
I mean,
it's so obvious,
but you wouldn't think
anyone would go that far.
Yeah, he cut a freakin'
hole in his hand.
I mean, is all that
worth it just for a trick?
I mean, can't you do tricks
that don't hurt you?
Anyone can
learn a trick,
but doing something
no one else
is willing to do
makes you a magician.
I can do something
no one else can.

If you never want to

I mean, I really hate that I
was lying to you about it,

I'd be out of this by now.
You don't seem

Okay, stop.
I'm gonna help
you figure this out.
There's no way I can
get that kind of money.
I only have

Okay, but you have
to try, right?
If he's as bad as you say he
is, you don't have a choice.

$35,914.
You sold everything?
Everything.

What's this?
It's only $900.
Wait, where'd this

I had it saved up.
It was supposed to be

Hey, Mr. Granger.
You all right?
I, uh...
Come in. Come in.
It's a little

It always will be.
Anything I can do?
Do you remember the last
project I did senior year?
(SIGHS)
Bo.
Building an electromagnet
in a shoebox is one thing,
but in your arm?
How long has
this been infected?
I'm taking care of it.
It doesn't look like it.
The negative is
fed to my thumb
and the positive to
the rest of the fingers.
The board is programed to read
all the different inputs.
It gives me a little bit of
control over pitch, yaw and roll.
But I need more power.
I mean, the lithium-ions last a
while, but their output, it's just...
I need more output.
Have you always run the battery
straight to the electromagnet?
Yeah.
Huh.
What about
a feedback oscillator?
A feedback oscillator
would magnify the voltage.
You could do that
without touching the coil.
But with a higher voltage, you'll
be running into a new problem.
You see, these wires
in your arm are thin.
You'd want a larger gauge
with that much power,
otherwise,
it could overheat.
But it's still possible,
right?
Yeah.
I think so.
So, a feedback oscillator.
And a bigger battery.
Do you have
a soldering iron?
