Detective Perez schools Luis about how lucky he is to not be in jail and how much of his life he鈥檚 wasted.
PEREZ I didn鈥檛 know you and yo comemeirda gang played here too. I guess it鈥檚 true what they say, 鈥渢his place is going to sh#t.鈥� Know how to play 9-Ball? You鈥檙e in luck. Meet Officer Perez by day and El Tibur貌n by night.
See, first you rack up 1 through 9, like you see here on the table, 9 in the center like this and whichever goes in - (Breaks) Would you look at that? Ball 1 made it in. This is feeling serendipitous.
(Sets up)
I鈥檓 going in number order. Ball 2. I dedicate this to your ability to lie.
(Shoots)
Easy shot.
(Sets up)
I dedicate ball 3 to your ability to being a statistic.
(Shoots)
翱测茅.
(Sets up)
Ball 4 to your greed.
(Shoots)
础蝉铆.
(Sets up)
5 to your stupidity!
(Shoots)
Clearly.
(Sets up)
6 to your cowardice!
PEREZ (CONT鈥橠)
(Shoots)
What?
(Steps to Luis)
What? All right. Those were all cheap shots. But true.
(Sets up)
Ball 7, I鈥檓 dedicating to your only skill: not getting caught.
(Aims, looks at Luis, and shoots)
Maybe you鈥檙e meant to be who you are.
(Sets up)
Ball 8 is for my ability to not shove this fucking pool stick down your throat.
(Shoots)
You decide what ball 9 should mean. Think of something. How about鈥o the gangsta life? To the bitches? To fiends always having that money? How about for God鈥檚 forgiveness? For hurting your own? For disgracing your own? To never breaking the cycle and moving forward! Because 鈥淚 don鈥檛 give a f@ck鈥�, right?
