I'm here now. Roy: What's the matter, eh, girl? Where doughboy? He here? Huh? Even he ain't real. Where is he? Where's doughboy, tell me? He went to go find myron. Hey, my friend. We're fine, okay? I love you. Want a beer, boy? Open! I'm not gonna say nothing. I'm gonna tell nobody about the boat. You play your numbers yesterday? I lost. But sometimes you win. Sometimes you lose. Ain't nothing I can do about that, huh boy? If you're gonna do it, do it! Take your time, boy. It only happens once. Sometimes you get your number called. Number. Numbers, numbers. What are you waiting for? Yeah, boy. I like you. Friendship ain't got nothing to do with this. Yeah, you see! This is how it is. Men gotta do things they don't want to do.
