[bunniefuu]

[OZ] So, who's got the
power in this city?

- [SIRENS IN DISTANCE]
- [DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[OZ] The Falcones?

Sofia's the last of them.

She don't even like her
f*cking name. [CHUCKLES]

Maronis?

Sure, Sal's out of Blackgate,

but his family's still f*cking ash.

So, who's got the power, huh?

That's what the streets are asking.

But down here,

we know.

- [MOTORCYCLE ENGINE REVVING]
- [DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[OZ] We started with two buckets,

two f*ck' buckets. That's it.

And now, it's grown into
an underground empire.

Cookin' and sellin'
Bliss under our label.

You know how many boroughs
there are in Gotham?

Each one run by a different crew.

All of them looking for
a way to get theirs.

The more drugs we smuggle,
the more cash we bring in.

That's food on the table

and clothes on your backs, fellas.

And look, this ain't
the game you're used to.

I get it. You won't see any trouble.

As long as your mouths
stay shut, you understand?

Silence is golden, loose
lips, and all that sh*t.

Remember, if somebody asks
you where you got this cash...

- I say construction.
- Construction.

We're all in construction.

He has returned.

Well, what did Donny Boy say?

He's stoked.

Sullivans moving our product or what?

Said they could sell Bliss
as fast as we can make it.

f*ck' right, they can.
Show me what you got.

Kid, kid, not bad.

Make a businessman out of you yet.

If we can get a couple
more gangs onboard,

we're f*ck' set.

Check this out.

We finally got the line
cleared to Burnley, right?

Means we can supply
the Massive now, too.

- Oh, that's awesome.
- Look. Boom, boom, boom.

But there's a lot bad blood

between them and the Odessa Mob, right?

All these gangs f*cking hate each other.

So we gotta make sure
that nobody advertises

that we're, uh... you
know, we're dating around.

- [CHUCKLES]
- All right?

f*ck this.

Jesus Christ!

Anyway, Bruno's got Odessa.

I got Nick taking care of the LoBoys.

I even got Link. He's hitting me up,

saying Zhao might wanna play ball

now he sees all the
money we got coming in.

- Oh, really?
- Yeah, greedy f*ck.

But the Triads, they got the connects

to take our operation international.

It's a whole different sport.
That's where all the money's at.

Hey, Zeke. Zeke!

Where are we at with the power?

Gennies ain't gonna hold us much longer.

I'm working on it, boss.

But City Hall's rationing electricity,

sending it all to the
rich neighborhoods.

Of course they are, f*cking pricks!

All right, just keep trying.

Good, fellas?

Oz, uh...

- When I made that drop...
- Yeah?

... uh, someone had
eyes on the Sullivans.

- Whaddya mean?
- Think it was probably one of...

S-Sal or Sofia's guys.

- Yeah?
- He tried to follow me.

He see you go underground?

No. No.

- You sure?
- Positive.

All right. As long as we stay sharp

and duck 'em in the tunnels,

these Maroni-Gigante- Whatever-the-f*ck

can sniff around all they want.

They're so busy with their noses up,

they'll never think to look down.

But you and me...

Look around. Look at what we got, kid.

The good people of Crown
Point hard at work, right?

Protecting us.

Keeping this whole f*cking thing quiet.

We got their loyalty.

And we got their love.

You know why?

'Cause we pay 'em.

Hmm.

You know how meaningful that is, Vic?

To be the guy in the neighborhood

who takes care of people?

They're gonna tell stories
about us one day, kid.

You think?

I f*ck' know it.

Victor Aguilar.

Oswald Cobb.

Yeah.

Our names are gonna live forever.

The weed is sneaking around the city

He's supplying the

And no one's talking.

If he gets more local
gangs on his side...

No.

He needs the Triads to make waves,

and they made a deal with me, not Oz.

Sofia, people buy
from whoever's selling.

Oz got that tip from Carmine.

Yeah.

Stings, don't it?

Well, then I think that we
just have to make it very clear

that playing with Oz comes at a cost.

You are good at telling
people what they wanna hear.

[SIGHS]

You have a drawer at his place.

You mean something to him.

He won't come for me,
if that's your plan.

Not that kind of relationship. Okay.

What is it then?

He pays you, I presume, so...

can't be love.

Must be nice.

You were born into opportunity, honey,

so you can afford to
think in black and white.

What I got with Oz, it
ain't just one thing.

I know what he is...

a liar, narcissist...

k*ller.

But we all got our sh*t, don't we?

I mean, you certainly got yours.

Nancy Hoffman...

Yolanda Jones...

those women meant nothing to you.

They were family to me.

You still think I'm the Hangman?

He never told you?

My father k*lled those women.

k*lled my mother.

Oz knew.

He has always known.

Well, he helped cover it up

so that my father could
keep on k*lling women.

He used me.

He let me rot in Arkham,

so he could move up.

[EVE SIGHS]

Kept you in the dark
about all that, huh?

Well, I guess if he hadn't,

you'd have asked questions about him.

How he knows?

Why he would work for a man
that m*rder*d your friends?

Oz would never risk that.

It's better for him...

isn't it, if you fear me?

He said he felt bad for
you, that you were sick.

If that were true, you
would've been dead at the door.

But you did come here to k*ll me, right?

I mean, after all is said and done?

You were his alibi.

You knew.

Not at first.

But yeah.

[g*n c*ck]

So, when you're done here,

just leave my girls alone, okay?

That's why you asked me here?

To save them.

From the Hangman.

But that's not who you are, right?

[PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]

Your people protected you.

They wouldn't give you up.

Cuts both ways.

They got my back.

I got theirs.

[g*n RATTLES]

Well, whatever I was born into,

I'll never have that.

Crown Point.

By the Zoo.

[EVE SIGHS]

You deserve your shot.

But where you got that information...

It'll stay between us.

Don't want this spillin'.
It'll ruin the surprise.

Nick, you're driving. Bruno,
I need you to hang back,

make sure everything runs smoothly here.

Whatever happens tonight, fellas,

we gotta be ready.

Vic, where you been?

Phone's been blowing up nonstop.

m*therf*ckers are pissed,
but they wanna meet.

This is it.

You good?

What's up with you?

Something with that guy?

You get away clean?

[INHALES SHARPLY] I think so, yeah.

D-don't look down. Meet me here.

You done the right thing.

Protected those you care about.

You're strong, kid.

[OZ EXHALES]

[VICTOR EXHALES SHAKILY]

[QUIETLY] It gets easier.

I want you home tonight.

Dump those clothes.

All right? Clean yourself up.

Get something to eat
and rest, all right?

Or you're gonna be a
puddle of water tomorrow.

I'm gonna need you. You hear me?

Yeah?

All right.

[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

[INTENSE DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[INTENSE DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES]

[OZ] Well, well, well...

Late to my own party.

It's not a good look, I know.

[SCRAPING, THUDDING]

I got a little surprise for you here.

What I'm bringing you tonight
is big, bigger than Bliss.

It's gonna change the face
of the whole city forever.

And... it's my gift to all of ya.

This a f*ck' joke?

Relax, Able. Have a f*ck' beer. Jesus.

You vouched for this man?

That's right, Zhao, he did.

And you're gonna thank him for it.

Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to the Gold Summit.

You'll be proud to say
you were here tonight,

all of you...

even though I know you hate
each other's friggin' guts.

The sh*t between the Massive
and Odessa is legendary.

LoBoys, you gotta scrap with everyone

just to get a bit of respect.

Got the Triads. Sullivans,
oldest crew in town.

But the most hated here among us...

is yours truly, and not for nothin'.

I got three of my guys
strung up 'cause of you.

No, not 'cause of me.

They're dead because
the Maronis and Gigantes

got the power to take you out.

You want revenge? What
the f*ck is stoppin' ya?

They're right over there...

across the Elliot Bridge.

A bridge that was built by
your ancestors, Donny Boy,

but it ain't named Sullivan. Huh?

No, it's named for the rich crooks

who took credit for
your family's hard work.

They run sh*t. We eat sh*t.

The sad thing, Donny Boy, is

they don't even know your f*ck' name!

They don't know none of youse.

But I do.

Sal... Give me a f*ck' break.

You know Sal b*tches and moans

about Carmine stealin'
his Drops business?

What do you think him and
Sofia are gonna do to you, huh?

They'll take your
sh*t, your territories.

That's what's comin'.

'Cause you mean nothin' to 'em.

They don't give a f*ck
about any of you all.

You know, not even a mile from here,

there's a bunch of
big-time, City Hall f*ck.

They're sittin' in
some fancy private club.

They're drinkin' orange wine.

They're makin' crooked
deals to benefit them.

And guess what? They can't
f*ck' stand each other either,

just like you.

But they're breakin'
bread because they know

that each of them on their
own, they ain't got nothin',

but together, those soft-bellied pricks,

they run this whole f*ck' city.

Why the hell not us?

Now, I'm bringing you Bliss.

Yeah, sure, that gives us the extra leg.

But the real power comes if
we've got each other's backs.

Then Sal, Sofia, the old guard,

they won't be able to f*ck' touch us.

[ZHAO] This man's a fool.

He betrays everyone he works with.

Sofia Gigante,

Alberto Falcone.

There's no code, no class.

The Penguin is a
bargain-basement hustler.

[FOREBODING MUSIC PLAYING]

He'll do anything, say anything,

and everyone here knows it.

[OZ] Do they, Zhao?

'Cause here's what I know.

Between us, we got more
territory, more manpower

than this city's ever seen.

You wanna blow that
away? sh*t, go ahead.

But I do got a f*ck' code!

And I'm puttin' my g*dd*mn life
on the line to share it with ya.

If we come together
right here, right now,

they're gonna talk about this night...

the time that we decided

that it's better to work
with the ones we hate

than live under those

that don't even know our f*ck' names!

[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

Nick, give me a beer.

Look, everything you heard about me...

is true, you know?

I stole Sofia's product. I...

I popped Alberto Falcone.

I did it all.

So f*ck' what?

I hustle.

You know, I...

do what it takes.

'Cause at the end of
the day, you know...

[SIGHS]

I'm just a poor kid from the Eastside

who's got something to f*ck' prove.

Like all of ya.
