Come on, let's go, let's go, let's go.
You got the stuff? Yeah. Perfect.
I'm the living product of a second chance. I didn't deserve going down the wrong road, listening to the wrong people doing the wrong things. Let's just say it awoken something inside of me.
We're rich. Not quite. But we could be.
Your dad works on some pretty hot cars, man. They keep it locked up pretty tight. But don't they have keys for all of that? You guys make a good point.
Come on, dude, it's on his shirt. It's not like it's going to cost him anything, is it?

Hey, where you been? None of your business. I don't like those friends of yours. You don't know anything about that. Hey, I'm talking to you. You offer me your man, hang with the wrong crowd. There's only one place you're going to be going from here. Or you'll never leave at all.

We found these.
I. It's mine. I did it. Come again? I took the car.
You stole from your own shop? That's right.
I don't have to ask you to place your hands behind your back. You're under arrest. Oh, dad. It's all right, son.
We're sitting in here in a trailer that reminds me an awful lot of my past. At the same time, I think the greatest lesson to take away from something like this is that you can't look at your present environment and judge your possibilities or your future. The person that actually turned me into the person I wanted to be was someone who accepted me for who I was in that moment.
