Quotes

Cornell 'Cottonmouth' Stokes : Shades. When'd you come home?
Hernan 'Shades' Alvarez : Ooh, a while ago. Seagate wasn't shit.
Cornell 'Cottonmouth' Stokes : Hmm. So... what can I do for you?
Hernan 'Shades' Alvarez : It's the other way around. Y'all got hit last night. That expensive, exclusive, hard-to-get hardware that Diamondback gave you is in a police evidence lock-up. And the money... that Domingo and his crew were supposed to give you... is gone. I'm with Diamondback now. You knew that, right?
Cornell 'Cottonmouth' Stokes : Well, tell Diamondback, it's about time...
Hernan 'Shades' Alvarez : Uh-uh. Diamondback tells you.
Cornell 'Cottonmouth' Stokes : [laughing in amusement] I'm his number-one seller.
Hernan 'Shades' Alvarez : I ain't here to spank you. But I do need to look you in your eyes...
[taking off his sunglasses]
Hernan 'Shades' Alvarez : Was it an inside job?
Cornell 'Cottonmouth' Stokes : No. Hell no. I needed that money, too. It took forever to build up that kind of trust.
Hernan 'Shades' Alvarez : We're here to get you back on your feet. Whatever you need.
Tone : Yo, who is "we," you fake-ass Ray Charles?
Hernan 'Shades' Alvarez : I got your back, B. Just like back in the day.
Cornell 'Cottonmouth' Stokes : Forget about back in the day. Why is this feeling like a takeover?
Hernan 'Shades' Alvarez : It's not. If it was... you would never even see Diamondback comin'. He wants you to win. How can I help?

Cornell 'Cottonmouth' Stokes : What's the word?
Tone : Confirmation of what Dante told us while he was dying. His friends, the ones that play on your summer league team at the Rucker, jacked your shit. Shameek and Chico.
Hernan 'Shades' Alvarez : Any bites yet?
Tone : No.
Cornell 'Cottonmouth' Stokes : Double down. Twenty large to find those fools.
