you know what I told myself?Copy !req
394. I said, "Waylon, you're doing good."Copy !req
395. I surely did.Copy !req
396. I thought I was God's own drug addict.Copy !req
397. And if God hadn't meant
for me to get high...Copy !req
398. he wouldn't have made
being high so much, like, perfect.Copy !req
399. Now, I know I got one more high left in me...Copy !req
400. but I doubt very seriously
if I have one more recovery.Copy !req
401. So if there's anybody out there
that sees that bottom coming up at them...Copy !req
402. I'm here to talk sense.Copy !req
403. I don't care who you are...Copy !req

424. "and the wisdom to know the difference."Copy !req
425. What's the score?Copy !req
426. Orioles, 4 to 3.
Bernie Williams just doubled, though.Copy !req
427. They always let the Yankees

bust through those French doors.Copy !req
438. - That'd work.
- Yes, indeed.Copy !req
439. Sell most of this good shit around the way...Copy !req

470. It's not 'cause when I came to Homicide,
you taught me all kinds cool shit about...Copy !req
471. I don't know, whatever.Copy !req
472. Whatever.Copy !req
473. It's 'cause when it came time
for you to fuck me...Copy !req
474. you were very gentle.Copy !req
475. Damn right.Copy !req
476. See, 'cause you could've
hauled me out of the garage...Copy !req
477. and just bent me

517. They catch four packs
popping out the truck.Copy !req
518. They don't even get the plate?Copy !req
519. What's all this shit?Copy !req
520. Something's up, man.Copy !req
521. Something is definitely up.Copy !req
522. I got somewhere I gotta be.

529. Stash-finding motherfuckers
popped the package from nowhere.Copy !req
530. Who you talking?Copy !req
531. Skinny black motherfucker
and that ass-ugly knocko.Copy !req
532. The white boy with the ball cap.Copy !req
533. - The ones who jumped Bodie?
- Batman and Robin.Copy !req
534. All right?Copy !req
535. - Bang.
- You got them, baby.Copy !req
536. - I'm Batman.
- I don't think so.Copy !req
537. - Batman's white.
- And Robin's black?Copy !req
538. You heard the hopper,
you're the ass-ugly white guy.Copy !req
539. Boy Wonder,
why don't you suck my bat-dick?Copy !req
540. Get the fuck outta here.Copy !req
541. Why don't you sign this for me there,
Mr. One-day Man?Copy !req
542. God have mercy when they piss you, boy.Copy !req
543. You mean the god of my understanding?Copy !req
544. No, we gotta get you
some clean piss, you know...Copy !req
545. so you can take up
into your probation office.Copy !req
546. Yo, Bubs.Copy !req
547. Who the fuck do we know with clean piss?Copy !req
548. - So you're ready to charge this one?
- If we luck into the gun, yeah.Copy !req
549. And then we tag-team Bird.Copy !req
550. If we get him with the gun,
we take it federal.Copy !req
551. Five years minimum,
and he's got prior felonies...Copy !req
552. it's a lot more.Copy !req
553. We got an address we want to hit?Copy !req
554. We're working with informants.
As soon as we get something, we jump.Copy !req
555. warm air for the afternoon...Copy !req
556. partly sunny, windy and warm
with a chance of thunderstorms...Copy !req
557. high up to 83, and then on Friday,
clearing and windy with a high near 70.Copy !req
558. Weather updated around
the clock on WTOP radio.Copy !req
559. I'm meteorologist Dave Lew
at the Weather Channel.Copy !req
560. This is the WTOP radio network.Copy !req
561. You worried about being seen?Copy !req
562. If anybody got a problem
with me spending time with y'all...Copy !req
563. I'd be much obliged to stick
my gun straight in their mouth.Copy !req
564. How's that work?Copy !req
565. Bird not up in the mix today.Copy !req
566. If we had more than a street name,
maybe we could come up with an address.Copy !req
567. What can I say? Out here, Bird just Bird.Copy !req
568. So, what up,
you all fixing snatch him from out here?Copy !req
569. That's the plan.Copy !req
570. He don't pack down here, none of them do.
And that's the rule.Copy !req
571. Now, if you want iron, you gotta go
to one of those kids up in the towers.Copy !req
572. - We need the gun.
- Then y'all got a problem.Copy !req
573. Without knowing his crib,
we definitely got a problem.Copy !req
574. Not unless y'all know where Bird like to cop.Copy !req
575. - What, Bird gets high?
- Not in the towers, he don't.Copy !req
576. Avon ain't having his people using.
That's another rule.Copy !req
577. "Never get high on your own supply."Copy !req
578. Now, if I was hunting Mr. Bird...Copy !req
579. I would consider the best package
to be the red Dilly...Copy !req
580. that's over there in Carrollton.Copy !req
581. That's if I have to be
constabulating like you all.Copy !req
582. Carrollton?Copy !req
583. I know one thing, when you all
run up on him, you all best be more...Copy !req
584. careful, that is.Copy !req
585. Why is that?Copy !req
586. Bird will throw down
without thinking, for sure.Copy !req
587. Poot.Copy !req
588. Where Wallace been at, man?Copy !req
589. I don't know.Copy !req
590. He in the wind.Copy !req
591. Wallace been fucked up.Copy !req
592. Since they got that stickup boy, you know?
Put him on the car like that.Copy !req
593. Wallace all quiet and shit.Copy !req
594. Don't even come out his room some days.Copy !req
595. I'm looking for Dee. You seen him?Copy !req
596. Dee.Copy !req
597. Chilling?Copy !req
598. What's up?Copy !req
599. - What're you doing down in the projects?
- I got something, man.Copy !req
600. Something right.Copy !req
601. Come on over.Copy !req
602. Where the shop at?Copy !req
603. Nothing today.Copy !req
604. See, that's the thing,
'cause if you need more of that...Copy !req
605. I got this connect.Copy !req
606. Yeah?Copy !req
607. This guy I know from the club, he from D.C.Copy !req
608. He got this thing through New Orleans,
these Jamaicans down there.Copy !req
609. New Orleans?Copy !req
610. They're offering weight, Dee.Copy !req
611. - My uncle know about it?
- No, see.Copy !req
612. This thing on the side for me...Copy !req
613. I got enough to turn
a New York quarter on it...Copy !req
614. but I don't have what you got right here
with the distribution.Copy !req
615. You see what I'm saying?Copy !req
616. I'm saying, Dee,
I'd be taking all the risk with them peoples.Copy !req
617. Once I have the package, I bring it
down here to you, and you put it out.Copy !req
618. We do an even split on what comes back.Copy !req
619. Right?Copy !req
620. Let me think on that, all right?Copy !req
621. Finally get some ends for us.
You see what I'm saying?Copy !req
622. Yeah.Copy !req
623. Yeah, most def.Copy !req
