Tasha: You need to go get a gun. Right now.
Tariq: Where the hell am I gonna get a gun? Anyone I could ask right now is gone. Kanan, Dre, Tommy...Dad.

Paula: We can help you, Tariq. I can help you.
Tariq: Nobody can help me.

Hey, you and me, we good. But Monet's word is law.

Zeka [to Tariq]

Davis: I'm not gonna allow you to let me go out there with my ass hanging out again, Tasha! You need to stop lying to us right now.
Tasha: I'm not lying. And Saxe knows damn well I didn't kill Terry Silver. Terry loved me. He wanted me to turn on Ghost. He was trying to save me, and Ghost killed him.

It's not the truth that matters. It's what we can sell to a jury.

Davis [to Tasha]

Boy, I'd be very careful about who you accuse of being a criminal.

Monet [to Tariq]

Tasha: James didn't take orders from me.
Tameka: But Tommy Egan did?

Dru: Shit, there's no way out, man.
Cane: Oh, there's a way.
Dru: Cane, we ain't killing no fucking cop, man.
Cane: You ain't. I am.

Monet: Say I let you go play college ball, then what?f You go pro? It's not the same for females, D. They make seventy-five bands a year, if they're lucky. How does that bullshit help the family?
Diana: It's not about the family. It's about my life.
Monet: Your life is this family.

Davis: Hey, we need you to deliver his eulogy tomorrow. And blow his ass up.
Tariq: With him right there in the ground?
Davis: It's his legacy or your Mom's life, kid? Get some balls.

Remember how Ghost always used to say there's only two ways that drug dealers end up? Dead or in jail? Well, I think I found another way.

Tariq [to Tasha]

When this goes to trial, you make sure I testify. Tasha is no queen pin. And Saxe is dirty as fuck.

Blanca [to Davis & Paula]
