00:00:00The Swahili say do not throw away a copper for the sick of gold's glitter.
00:00:17Unfortunately no one listens to Africans and that's how Sebastian and I took
00:00:22advantage of people, especially those driven by greed and the urge for quick
00:00:27money. You know who we are. The Colors Internet Scamers, Yahoo Boys, 419, Con Man.
00:00:35For me a con is as simple as making someone believe you want to help them,
00:00:42when in reality you're only helping yourself. Like stopping to let someone go
00:00:47ahead so you can check out the view. Yes, sometimes you do it for the view.
00:00:55Sometimes con men just do it because they can. Back then we did it to Savali. I know it doesn't make it
00:01:03right.
00:01:10The good news is, things are different today. Maybe we could go to the
00:01:39Maybe we got older and wiser, maybe we are looking for redemption, but today we call ourselves con men with a conscience, and that, my friend, is a good thing.
00:02:09How fun, huh?
00:02:15How did you get in here?
00:02:17Buenos dias to you too, Sebastian.
00:02:19I'm sorry, man. Crazy day.
00:02:21So, how's Kathy?
00:02:23She's out of town.
00:02:25Since when did you start asking me about Kathy?
00:02:28I mean, you're my boy, she's your woman.
00:02:31Okay.
00:02:33So, what's up?
00:02:35You know, a shitty office and I hate being a lawyer.
00:02:38It's just a job, Sav.
00:02:39The problem is you think you can save the world.
00:02:42Lawyers help people.
00:02:44You know the difference between a mosquito and a lawyer, right?
00:02:47One is a blood-sucking parasite.
00:02:49The other is an insect.
00:02:52Speaking of parasites, meet Damien Miller.
00:02:56Former football player.
00:02:58NFL, not EPL.
00:03:00And football, not soccer.
00:03:02He could be a potential target.
00:03:05Since when did you start mining targets?
00:03:07He's perfect.
00:03:09Trust me.
00:03:10I can't.
00:03:11You're a lawyer.
00:03:12Dude, would you just stop with the lawyer jokes?
00:03:14I only have one.
00:03:15The rest are true stories.
00:03:17So, our firm represents Mr. Miller.
00:03:25And we just got him off on the technicality.
00:03:27And what did he do?
00:03:28Well, according to the indictment, he collected nearly half a million dollars in donations,
00:03:34earmarked for a charity that he ran, the Third Wheel Foundation.
00:03:38And prosecutors alleged that despite assurances from Mr. Miller that 100% of the funds would
00:03:44be used to help families and children in need in Africa, Mr. Miller still diverted the money
00:03:49for his personal expenses.
00:03:51And you guys helped him go free?
00:03:54No.
00:03:55The legal system did.
00:03:57And then I heard him brag about the money and how what he did was so easy, even an African
00:04:06can do it.
00:04:07It's absolutely important that we return this money to the real owner.
00:04:15Ain't no French until the Anglophone problem is solved back home.
00:04:18Are you serious?
00:04:20What else do we know about Damien Miller?
00:04:23We should go by this house.
00:04:27How about tonight at 7?
00:04:30Yeah, I can do that.
00:04:33I told Isabella I'll stop by to see the girls, but I should be back by then.
00:04:37You guys good now?
00:04:40Isabella, my sister, with her husband, Jack, and their kids.
00:04:45Family.
00:04:46It's complicated.
00:04:51Hey, Vanessa.
00:04:53Wow, you guys are getting big.
00:04:55Girls, go finish your food.
00:04:57Okay, Mommy.
00:04:58Bye, Uncle Tita.
00:04:59Bye.
00:05:00Bye, sweetheart.
00:05:07You're getting big.
00:05:10Vanessa.
00:05:11She's doing well.
00:05:14Is Jack home?
00:05:18Still at work.
00:05:25Still at the dealership?
00:05:27I'm still there.
00:05:30Every day.
00:05:37I have to go.
00:05:40What happened to us?
00:05:42What happened to you?
00:05:43I have a family now.
00:05:46Doesn't mean we should stop talking.
00:05:48We're talking right now.
00:05:50You know what I meant.
00:05:52Nothing happened.
00:05:54We're family.
00:05:56My love to the girls.
00:05:57When I lay down and dream.
00:05:58Sometimes I see monsters.
00:05:59Or sometimes I fly.
00:06:00Whenever I want to.
00:06:01But when I wake up.
00:06:02With my feet I'm ashamed.
00:06:03Hey, my friend.
00:06:04Hey, my friend.
00:06:05The other guy got my ticket.
00:06:06But I need my car immediately.
00:06:07Okay?
00:06:08It's the gray.
00:06:09Go ahead.
00:06:10What?
00:06:11What?
00:06:12What?
00:06:13What?
00:06:14What?
00:06:15What?
00:06:16I said I need my car.
00:06:17It's the gray.
00:06:18Where is it?
00:06:19Where is it?
00:06:20I'm sorry.
00:06:21I don't understand what you're saying.
00:06:22What?
00:06:23What?
00:06:24I said I need my car.
00:06:25It's the gray.
00:06:26Where is it?
00:06:27I'm sorry.
00:06:28I don't understand what you're saying.
00:06:30But this guy, what does he tell me?
00:06:32I need my car!
00:06:33Okay?
00:06:35I'm sorry, sir.
00:06:37I know what it is.
00:06:38I can get it.
00:06:39Wait.
00:06:40Who are you?
00:06:41Oh, I speak French.
00:06:42So they got me to help you, sir.
00:06:44Hey.
00:06:45I don't have anything to do with you.
00:06:46Okay?
00:06:47Give him the keys immediately.
00:06:50Go, go, go!
00:06:55I lay down and dream.
00:06:58Sometimes I see monsters.
00:07:00Or sometimes I fly.
00:07:02Or wherever I want to.
00:07:05When I wake up with my feet tired chain.
00:07:09I must still be sleeping.
00:07:12I call it in my head.
00:07:15American dream.
00:07:18Hello.
00:07:19Keys are in the car man.
00:07:49I lay down and dream, or sometimes I see monsters, or sometimes I fly, or wherever I want to.
00:07:59But when I wake up, with my feet tied in chains, I must still be safe and pray.
00:08:06It's all in my head, American dream.
00:08:11Tip numero uno, showing up at the same place, at the same time every day, makes you predictable.
00:08:18And tip number two, putting your home address as home in your car's GPS, tells everyone where you live.
00:08:39You've arrived.
00:08:48I lay down and dream, or sometimes I see monsters, or sometimes I fly, or wherever I want to.
00:08:57But when I wake up, with my feet tied in chains, I must still be sleeping.
00:09:04It's all in my head, American dream.
00:09:10There's a crash we go on.
00:09:22There's a crash we go on.
00:09:27Did you know or did you choose to ignore the fact that Cathy was married?
00:09:55If she hated this well, she must want something from you.
00:10:02How did you not know, bro?
00:10:06You ever had this crazy thing called love?
00:10:08I don't think it's love, bro.
00:10:10It says the guy who was a wedding ring.
00:10:12Black men are perceived as non-violent when they're married.
00:10:15So this whole thing was about bringing me here?
00:10:17You keep looking for love in all the wrong places.
00:10:19You lied to me!
00:10:21Everything I said about Damien was true.
00:10:24Okay, then he's still our target.
00:10:34So, you're trying to prove a point now?
00:10:39No, no, you did that already.
00:10:41Yes, I don't know about you sometimes.
00:10:45Everything you want is illegal, impossible, or married to someone else.
00:10:49That typically is not black.
00:10:51What is it with you and your family's love affair with lighter shades?
00:10:55You're saying shit like that makes you sound racist.
00:10:57I'm not the one you should be mad with.
00:11:00What does Kathy really want from you?
00:11:15I'll come up with a story.
00:11:19See what she says.
00:11:21Are you good?
00:11:22I'll survive.
00:11:23You mean they can just arrest and deport you at any time?
00:11:41Only when the judges rule against me.
00:11:43So what are you going to do?
00:11:46The court date is still two months out.
00:11:49And have you hired a lawyer?
00:11:52They help if you have a case.
00:11:55I don't.
00:12:00There's got to be something that you can do.
00:12:03You know, deportation is always a good story.
00:12:09Anyone here today?
00:12:11Uh, you know, um, benefits of running corporate accounts.
00:12:17Nice.
00:12:20So, what did you say?
00:12:24I'm willing to do anything but my options are limited.
00:12:28But I don't want you to go.
00:12:33What if we got married?
00:12:48You'd do that for me?
00:12:50I'd do anything for you.
00:12:53You'd have your papers and we could be together.
00:13:00Is that a yes?
00:13:03That fast?
00:13:04There's more.
00:13:07What did you say?
00:13:09Yes, Cathy.
00:13:11Let's get married.
00:13:26What's wrong?
00:13:28I should have told you sooner.
00:13:30I have a husband.
00:13:39You have a husband?
00:13:41Are you getting a divorce?
00:13:42Well, he won't let me.
00:13:45I didn't know how to tell you.
00:13:47But it's okay.
00:13:49I want to be with you.
00:13:51How are we supposed to do that?
00:13:52Well...
00:13:53We just take him out of the picture.
00:14:02Oh God.
00:14:04She really asked you to kill her husband.
00:14:07We could hire someone to do it.
00:14:14Help me help you.
00:14:19Him and I haven't been husband and wife in a very long time.
00:14:25All he does these days is other women and stupid investments.
00:14:28Other women and stupid investments.
00:14:31Other women and stupid investments.
00:14:33That's how we get him.
00:14:36We need to find more people.
00:14:38Yeah.
00:14:39We reach out to Moe.
00:14:41Is Eminati available?
00:14:43How would I know?
00:14:44She's your ex.
00:14:45Exactly.
00:14:47We need her on this one.
00:14:48Why can't you ask Isabelle?
00:14:49Why can't you ask Isabelle?
00:14:58It's just done this a long time ago.
00:15:01Trees change their leaves, not their roots.
00:15:06Stopping doesn't change who we are.
00:15:09Ask me that thing, please.
00:15:15This is a man's world.
00:15:16But every man knows that women make this world go around.
00:15:21It may not be made my world go around.
00:15:23We bonded over our love for fighting for the little guys
00:15:26and our dislike of the establishment.
00:15:28The good old days.
00:15:30We broke up because...
00:15:31What do you think that means?
00:15:33They're hiring.
00:15:35Yeah, according to the owner, he wants help.
00:15:37Free help.
00:15:38Doesn't mean he's hiring.
00:15:40How does he get away with that?
00:15:42Desperate people who can't call the authorities.
00:15:44He owes her around 80 bucks.
00:15:49Yes.
00:15:50You came here for 80 bucks.
00:15:52I can give it to her, but it would have to...
00:15:53It has to be his money.
00:15:55Got it.
00:15:56Quick change?
00:15:58Yeah.
00:15:59Thanks.
00:16:01I got you.
00:16:02Not anymore.
00:16:05Just his bigger speech.
00:16:07You don't have me.
00:16:09We're gonna have this conversation right now.
00:16:11We brought it up.
00:16:13I'm just saying.
00:16:14How are you doing?
00:16:15Good.
00:16:16Uh...
00:16:17You have a bus car?
00:16:18Yep.
00:16:19Five dollars?
00:16:20Yes, five dollars.
00:16:22Hi.
00:16:23How are you doing?
00:16:24Good.
00:16:25Uh...
00:16:26You have a bus car?
00:16:27Yep.
00:16:28Five dollars?
00:16:29Yes, five dollars.
00:16:30Are you insane or something?
00:16:31Yeah, what are you doing?
00:16:34Okay...
00:16:35Do you want to do that?
00:16:36Go ahead.
00:16:37komplette?
00:16:39Okay.
00:16:49Do you want to do his little joystick forため?
00:16:51OK...
00:16:53any toy?
00:16:54I gave you a hundred.
00:17:07You gave me 20.
00:17:08No, I didn't.
00:17:10Can you check?
00:17:15I'm pretty sure that I wrote what I needed on the money.
00:17:18There.
00:17:18Water and aspirin.
00:17:36This is for the headache I'm about to give you.
00:17:43I know what you're doing.
00:17:46And I'll be watching you.
00:17:54So, what's the project you guys need help with?
00:17:57We need to kill a man so Tito can marry his wife.
00:18:00We'll see you next time.
00:19:24Hi, Mommy.
00:19:27You worry about money too much.
00:19:29That's what happens when you don't have enough of it.
00:19:31That's what happens when you want more of it.
00:19:34It's not that simple.
00:19:36Well, we have the house.
00:19:38The kids are healthy.
00:19:41Our treatment's working, so don't worry so much.
00:19:46Okay.
00:19:47Bath time, people.
00:19:48Well, you heard your mother.
00:19:54I guess we're gonna have to race.
00:19:59Go, go, go, go, go.
00:20:00You make it look so easy.
00:20:15I am their mother, so they listen to me.
00:20:19Yeah, but it's more than that.
00:20:22They did say it was a race, which means there's a time factor that increases the sense of urgency.
00:20:29And kids, or most people in general, tend to behave the way people around them do.
00:20:33So if one person goes for it, the other one tends to follow.
00:20:38That's so tricky.
00:20:40That's the idea.
00:20:44Yeah, you know that.
00:20:45The kids are really stupid.
00:20:47Or a little bit of both.
00:20:50Well, I get that from me.
00:20:51Right.
00:21:00Hey, so what do we know about this guy?
00:21:03His name is Mao.
00:21:04He's in Kenya right now.
00:21:06$30,000 is the fee.
00:21:08He flies in, does it, flies out.
00:21:10You pay half now, the other half, when your husband is...
00:21:14when the job is complete.
00:21:15So, you're saying you want me to send thousands of dollars to some African country, to some guy I've never met?
00:21:24Call him.
00:21:28Mao, it's me.
00:21:31When are you coming to America for that thing?
00:21:33Once I get the payment, I'll be there at the end of the month.
00:21:38We need you here right now.
00:21:39How fast can you get a visa?
00:21:40I can get one right away, but I will need about $1,000 to pay for it.
00:21:46And getting there earlier doubles the ticket price.
00:21:51That's not a problem.
00:21:53Okay, Western Union, you have my information.
00:22:00Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
00:22:04Mao, I love that name.
00:22:06You know, Mao Zedong was regarded as one of the most influential leaders in modern world history.
00:22:12What do you accomplish here?
00:22:13What do you accomplish here?
00:22:14Wa alaikum.
00:22:14Wa alaikum salam, bruh.
00:22:16What's up, man?
00:22:16What do you do?
00:22:20I don't have the money.
00:22:21It's not about the money anymore.
00:22:23He wants blood.
00:22:25Yo, Mo, where is he still?
00:22:26How much do you have to do it?
00:22:28It's too bad.
00:22:29Tell to Tito that I don't know.
00:22:31Mo, what the fuck?
00:22:33Dakar, I'm sorry, I owe you.
00:22:34Seth, I'm big, but I'm not ready to die.
00:22:36Yo!
00:22:43Who does he owe?
00:22:44Someone you don't want to mess with.
00:22:47You had a business with him?
00:22:49How much does he owe?
00:22:5150K.
00:22:53You have that kind of money?
00:22:55You can't help it.
00:23:04I just got a text from Sebastian.
00:23:15Mo's gone, he owes someone 50 grand.
00:23:19Do you have a plan B?
00:23:21Possibly.
00:23:22So, what's our story on this Damien Miller guy?
00:23:27Okay, so we're gonna offer him a percentage of inheritance money,
00:23:30led by someone with the same last name.
00:23:32And what's the deed?
00:23:34We'll say his wife wants a divorce.
00:23:38What's she like?
00:23:40Who?
00:23:42Really?
00:23:43I thought I knew who she was.
00:23:54Well, I mean, as long as you've moved on and you know what you're doing.
00:23:58Yes, and yes.
00:24:02So, is this revenge or business?
00:24:06Our business is revenge.
00:24:08Our business is revenge.
00:24:09Our business is revenge.
00:24:36Our business is revenge.
00:24:45Damien?
00:24:46Yeah.
00:24:48Took some clients out to dinner after work.
00:24:51Just went late.
00:24:52Yeah, you know, it's past midnight.
00:24:54Well, we went and had some drinks after.
00:24:57I mean, sorry.
00:25:00Maybe you could let me know next time?
00:25:03I left a message.
00:25:06No, no, no.
00:25:07I called and left it on the house phone.
00:25:09So you admit, you called the phone that you know I never use?
00:25:13No, I told you that's what I called.
00:25:15That was the first number that came up in my phone.
00:25:16Makes so much sense.
00:25:17Good lord, just...
00:25:19I called.
00:25:21More do you want?
00:25:36Working from home today?
00:25:45I don't work at the bank on one of these.
00:25:49Lucky you.
00:25:50Any thoughts with regards to what we talked about?
00:26:16Man, I told you, I have a job.
00:26:19Some of us have real jobs.
00:26:21You get $30,000 if you help us.
00:26:25Enough to cover Vanessa's medical expenses.
00:26:29We lost our guy, that's why I need your help.
00:26:32Isabel, kill me.
00:26:35Does she know your money situation?
00:26:46I need someone with your skills, Jack.
00:26:49Someone with a different perspective from the rest of us.
00:26:54What if I get caught?
00:26:56You won't.
00:26:57What if it doesn't work?
00:26:58419 typically works because the average American believes they are smarter than the average African.
00:27:10It will work, which will help.
00:27:13We're doing this for Vanessa.
00:27:14So, we're cheating Peter to pay Paul.
00:27:27We don't cheat on us, man.
00:27:32What am I going to tell Isabel?
00:27:37She doesn't need to know.
00:27:40Are you in or out?
00:27:42What?
00:27:55Some of you guys are wondering now, what is this Oibo boy doing with this accent?
00:27:58Well, long story short, I was born and raised in Nigeria.
00:28:00Now, the motherland, the Suya land.
00:28:03Most of you have heard of Nigeria from your computer monitors.
00:28:07While you are chopping Suya, or eating your Doritos,
00:28:10or even sitting in bed, whacking your dick or your totoe.
00:28:14And then this pop-up comes up on your screen.
00:28:16Email pop-up.
00:28:18I'm an African prince.
00:28:21I have $100 million.
00:28:24Tied up in legal matters, but I just need $3,000 to $4,000 to take off legal fees.
00:28:29With your help, you get 30%.
00:28:33Now, birds and whistles, they fly in your head.
00:28:35But it's a scam now, not 419 scam.
00:28:37Because 419 is actually a reference to Article 419 of Nigeria's Criminal Code,
00:28:43which deals with fraud, there's a widespread belief that internet fraud originated in Nigeria.
00:28:49So the brilliant minds in the world came together,
00:28:52and they want to come up with a plan to eradicate this problem and catch all these thieves.
00:28:55So they invented this machine, the Japanese, you know, spot them and catch them.
00:29:00And before they put the plan into work, they have to test it with the Oibo people all over the world.
00:29:05So the first country, now England.
00:29:07England.
00:29:09In a matter of 30 minutes, the machine catch about 10,000 thieves.
00:29:1210,000!
00:29:15Then they go towards Africa.
00:29:17Yeah, Ivory Coast.
00:29:20About 10 minutes, it catch about 5,000 thieves.
00:29:23Then they go to the Middle East, Beirut.
00:29:26Beirut.
00:29:27In about 8 minutes, it catch about 2,000 thieves.
00:29:32Everybody's happy, they are dancing, you know?
00:29:34They are dancing, you know?
00:29:36You know?
00:29:37So they went and took the machine to Nigeria.
00:29:40They're all excited, they're happy.
00:29:42They drop the machine, and within 6 minutes, oh?
00:29:44So, 6 minutes, the machine got stolen.
00:29:51Okay, maybe it did.
00:29:52But in reality, fraud has no nationality.
00:29:55Ah, look, there's fine boys and girls in the audience, so, ah, ah.
00:29:59You and my sister with the green dress and beautiful earrings.
00:30:02Where are you from?
00:30:04Jamaica.
00:30:05Jamaica!
00:30:06Oh, I'm in love, bro, I'm in love!
00:30:08I love the Jamaican food, I love Jamaican food.
00:30:11How about you, my brother?
00:30:12Are you her boyfriend?
00:30:13Yes.
00:30:15Where are you from?
00:30:19I'm from IT.
00:30:20So, where are you from again?
00:30:21Oh, I'm from New York City.
00:30:23New York City, I love New York.
00:30:25And what about you?
00:30:26Oh, I'm from Texas.
00:30:27What?
00:30:28I've been visiting here for a couple of weeks now.
00:30:30I'm loving it.
00:30:31You see what I was telling you, fraud has no nationality.
00:30:34My husband took care of it.
00:30:41He's at work right now.
00:30:45Yeah, last month.
00:30:46Can you check?
00:30:47No, that can't be right.
00:30:52I'll take care of it.
00:30:56Bye, everybody.
00:30:58Bye, everybody.
00:31:01Bye, everyone.
00:31:03Bye, everybody.
00:31:05Bye, everyone.
00:31:06I'll take care of it.
00:31:08Too bad.
00:31:09I see you in the new United Statescraft.
00:31:12This is a matchup.
00:31:16So, I will stand on my hands.
00:31:19I'm going to use the next step.
00:31:23I'm going to turn my hands down!
00:31:27Now I'm going to use my hands.
00:31:32I'm going to put in the right there.
00:32:07Well, well, look who decided to come to work today.
00:32:11I have a smock in the back with your name on it.
00:32:14This is all worn to me now.
00:32:16Rain wets the leopard's skin, but it doesn't wash the spots out.
00:32:20How are you, Nana?
00:32:21I'm blessed, I'm blessed.
00:32:23What brings you in today?
00:32:33I was hoping you could lend me some money.
00:32:36Jack's the banker.
00:32:38Why aren't you borrowing from him?
00:32:39I know it's awkward asking for money.
00:32:41Then why are you doing it?
00:32:43I haven't even told you the amount.
00:32:45It doesn't matter.
00:32:46What's the money for?
00:32:48A family issue.
00:32:50Does someone die?
00:32:51Why do we only give when someone dies?
00:32:54Why can't we help them when they're alive?
00:32:56My sister, I got this place as an investment for my family and myself.
00:33:05This is life.
00:33:06Not this thing you and your brother are doing.
00:33:08I'm not doing anything.
00:33:15I love to spend more time with my daughter.
00:33:17You know that.
00:33:19Can I at least tell you how much I need?
00:33:21Isabel, I'm not interested.
00:33:25I'm really not.
00:33:26I'm really not.
00:33:27Hey.
00:33:28Hey.
00:33:29Imanathi, nice to meet you.
00:33:46Jack, likewise.
00:33:51The numbers are good.
00:33:56Okay, so in other words, it's just a basic con, using an internet scam push.
00:34:02Yeah, giving those emails a face and voice, minus the atrocious English, though.
00:34:08Well, the English is meant to weed out the smart people who won't respond.
00:34:13That's debatable.
00:34:14Okay, cool.
00:34:16So then, what's a D?
00:34:17So that's a distraction, diversion, disturbance, like dirt to motivate the person.
00:34:23We get it.
00:34:24In this case, it's a divorce and pictures of him with another woman.
00:34:31Hold on.
00:34:33Hold on.
00:34:35Can we just go over it again?
00:34:38One more time.
00:34:39The whole thing.
00:34:40Okay.
00:34:41Tell him.
00:34:42So, my assistant says you're from Stinson, Manila?
00:34:49Yes.
00:34:50The family law department.
00:34:51Yeah, I got that.
00:34:52So, what's this all about?
00:34:53Your wife wants a divorce and she's hired us and is paying a PI to follow you around.
00:35:05But since you're our client first, we have a responsibility to take care of-
00:35:08See, we've never talked about divorce before.
00:35:09Has anything changed since you got married?
00:35:10Let me ask why they didn't just call instead of coming in.
00:35:15Why come here?
00:35:16A phone call would have been sufficient.
00:35:17That's when we use a D.
00:35:18You know we black folk, we gotta stick together.
00:35:19Oh.
00:35:20Okay.
00:35:21She needs proof of your wrongdoing so that the courts will give her a larger portion
00:35:28of the marital property or increased support and alimony.
00:35:33Sorry, but-
00:35:35Tracy wants to know if she can get the 19th off.
00:35:52Excuse me.
00:35:57They can schedule a funeral after 3 p.m.
00:36:09She can work for lunch and then leave one hour.
00:36:12It's her cousin, Mr. Melvin.
00:36:14She's your dead cousin, Mr. Melvin.
00:36:17I thought I made myself quite clear.
00:36:20You're gone, huh?
00:36:22I bet you he tries to use money to solve this.
00:36:39How much?
00:36:44Well, um, we don't want your money, but we do need your help.
00:36:51I'm not following.
00:36:54Well, Richmond Franklin Miller was a businessman and a client of ours who died in a plane crash
00:37:01about eight years ago.
00:37:02Now, he had lived in Cameroon for the last 35 years but died without a will.
00:37:07So about three months ago, we received a letter from his bank asking that we find and contact
00:37:12his next of kin or else they would declare his funds on service.
00:37:16We have four days left to do that.
00:37:19He didn't list any relatives on his bio data form, but you both share the same last name.
00:37:31I'm listening.
00:37:32Well, we need your consent to present you to the bank as his son and the beneficiary of
00:37:36the funds.
00:37:37That way, all the proceeds will be transferred from his account to your account.
00:37:43Well, how much are we talking about here?
00:37:46Well, uh, we'll take care of all the legal paperwork to legitimize your claim.
00:37:50And, uh, we'll pay you $30,000 for your time.
00:37:55And our partner at the bank, he's already in town, so he'll take care of the remaining paperwork.
00:38:00$30,000 for my name, my signature, and my time.
00:38:12Confidence level-wise, King Kong ain't got nothing on this guy.
00:38:16He's smart.
00:38:17The problem is, he thinks he's always the smartest guy in the room.
00:38:21But $30,000?
00:38:22Nah.
00:38:23It's too much for him to turn down.
00:38:25Well, uh, you guys are correct in assuming everyone wants something.
00:38:33You guys are also correct in assuming that I want money.
00:38:36Lots of it.
00:38:37What you don't get is the fact that I already got money.
00:38:42Lots of it.
00:38:44So let me know how much I have to pay to get these pictures and then we can forget about
00:38:48this whole thing.
00:38:49Think about it.
00:38:52While you're thinking about it, Elizabeth will show you up.
00:39:22Yeah!
00:39:38Richmond Franklin Miller was a businessman and a client of ours.
00:39:41He lived in Cameroon for about 35 years and died without a will.
00:39:45That way we can transfer all the proceeds from his pick accounts to yours.
00:40:15There has to be a body.
00:40:18Follow me one moment.
00:40:19That's not your problem, Patrick.
00:40:21I'll get him whatever he needs.
00:40:23Just get me a body.
00:40:32Patrick?
00:40:33So, you didn't even tell her your real name.
00:40:36Why take this thing so personal?
00:40:38I mean, someone can still betray you even if you don't trust them.
00:40:41I expected more from her.
00:40:44That's called greed, bro.
00:40:46I'm selfish, but I'm not greedy.
00:40:49Same difference, Tito.
00:40:51Same difference.
00:40:56So Damien called and he said he's ready to meet us and our foreign partner from the bank.
00:41:03Yes!
00:41:04That's you, right?
00:41:06It's not me.
00:41:07I just want to make sure.
00:41:09It's not you.
00:41:10It's this guy Shabazz.
00:41:11He's coming from San Diego.
00:41:12One of the best.
00:41:13He'll be the banker.
00:41:14I don't know, man.
00:41:15That sounds like a lot of moving parts.
00:41:19He's a pro.
00:41:24And it's not a problem.
00:41:26He could do this.
00:41:27And we don't have a choice.
00:41:28Damien Miller already saw my face.
00:41:30So we can't take that chance.
00:41:31Well, what if something happened?
00:41:32We can go out against reasonable probabilities.
00:41:35But you can't do anything about probable impossibilities.
00:41:38The door was open.
00:41:39I'm Shabazz.
00:41:40Tito.
00:41:41Reformed Yahoo boy.
00:41:42Finds the target and comes up with a plan.
00:41:43I'm a fan.
00:41:44Everyone knows him an athlete.
00:41:45The chameleon.
00:41:46Hot as nails.
00:41:47Cold as ice.
00:41:48Quick hands.
00:41:49Real hustler.
00:41:50Guys, I'm gonna have that pretty face fool you.
00:42:01Jack the Hack.
00:42:02But you do more than just hack, though.
00:42:05I mean, you're married to Isabel, and she's not here.
00:42:07Is she no longer doing this?
00:42:09What did you hear about me?
00:42:11Sebastian, Tito's right-hand man.
00:42:15Rich parents also came here to America and grew a conscience.
00:42:18Lawyer 95.
00:42:21Robin Hood 529.
00:42:23Frank like Sinatra.
00:42:27You guys don't look like Conley.
00:42:29Oh yeah, isn't that the point?
00:42:31Hopefully you're better thieves.
00:42:33Well, we prefer the term, um, wealth redistribution experts.
00:42:38Oh, that's you, Sebastian. What about everyone else?
00:42:41None of us is doing this for the money.
00:42:43You keep living in denial.
00:42:46Jack doesn't even want to be here.
00:42:47What?
00:42:48What's that mean?
00:42:49You're an open book.
00:42:53Yours?
00:42:56And why should we trust you?
00:42:59You shouldn't.
00:43:00But you're going to.
00:43:02Dude, we don't got to trust.
00:43:03Dude!
00:43:04Dude!
00:43:05Don't ever call me that.
00:43:08I'm just playing with you guys.
00:43:25We're here to do this job, so what's next?
00:43:27We have a meeting set up for noon tomorrow at a restaurant downtown.
00:43:31The owner lets us hang out when it's closed.
00:43:33What were you thinking?
00:43:34We're just trying to get paid and we're trying to help some people out in the process.
00:43:50The dictionary definition of getting paid means compensation or in exchange for something.
00:43:56You're stealing.
00:43:57Now wake the kids up.
00:43:59No, I'm not stealing.
00:44:01You know it's not stealing.
00:44:02I know what it is.
00:44:03And doing the wrong thing, even if it's for the right reasons, is by definition the wrong
00:44:07thing.
00:44:08I don't need you to define everything for me, okay?
00:44:12We need the money.
00:44:14The money.
00:44:15Why didn't you tell me?
00:44:16Because I thought I had everything under control.
00:44:18But then we got behind with Bella.
00:44:21And then Vanessa had her medical bills.
00:44:23And then things got really difficult when you stopped working.
00:44:26So I...
00:44:27Oh, so it's my fault.
00:44:28No, no.
00:44:29It's not your fault.
00:44:30I never...
00:44:31No.
00:44:32I didn't mean it like that.
00:44:35I would never lie to you.
00:44:36You're not working with him anymore.
00:44:39And no matter how you choose to define it, you've lied to me too.
00:44:43I don't like being kept in the dark.
00:44:46No wait, don't go.
00:44:47Will you please sit down?
00:44:48Yeah.
00:44:51What's this whole thing about anyway?
00:44:54Okay.
00:44:57This Damien Miller guy.
00:44:59He needs to think that we have $600,000 in his account.
00:45:04I can get the money.
00:45:06I can get the money.
00:45:07I put it in the account.
00:45:09And then I pull it out as fast as I can.
00:45:11I can't.
00:45:12No.
00:45:13I know what I'm doing.
00:45:14They're depending on me.
00:45:17The girls and I are depending on you too.
00:45:27Oh, so uh...
00:45:29What country am I from?
00:45:30It doesn't matter to me.
00:45:31Oh, you should.
00:45:32I mean, sometimes you need to play the fool to fool the fool who thinks he's calling you.
00:45:46Well, it's time for me to make my exit.
00:45:48Do you have to go?
00:45:49No.
00:45:50No.
00:45:51Not necessarily.
00:45:54Why?
00:45:56I can stay a little bit longer.
00:45:59And maybe spend the night?
00:46:01I didn't say that.
00:46:02But you want me to.
00:46:03If that's a cup of tea.
00:46:06I don't want to say it.
00:46:07Good night.
00:46:24I thought actions speak louder than words.
00:46:26I have to give you say it.
00:46:28I want you to stay.
00:46:58Thanks.
00:46:59Bye.
00:47:00What's up,aha?
00:47:02Bye.
00:47:03Bye.
00:47:06Bye.
00:47:08Bye.
00:47:12Bye.
00:47:14Bye.
00:47:16No, Isabelle.
00:47:19Bye.
00:47:22It's him.
00:47:35They're ready.
00:47:39You know, she doesn't like being left in the dark.
00:47:44I've never lied to her.
00:47:45I'm not intending to start now.
00:47:48I had to tell her.
00:47:50You should talk to her, too.
00:47:51She's your sister.
00:47:52She's your sister.
00:48:22She's your sister.
00:48:23She's your sister.
00:48:25She's your sister.
00:48:26She's your sister.
00:48:28What's the matter?
00:48:29Isabel.
00:48:30Izzy.
00:48:31She changes the locks.
00:48:32She makes me mad.
00:48:33I think she changed the locks.
00:48:38I think she changed the locks.
00:48:43That's weird, I was just here.
00:48:47I call it wild.
00:48:48Wild, wild, wild.
00:48:59I didn't get memo.
00:49:00I would have dressed up like you now.
00:49:03I would change later.
00:49:06So.
00:49:08Eight million dollars.
00:49:10And I only get 30,000?
00:49:14Mr. Miller.
00:49:15We'll give you more money if you want.
00:49:17I knew you were going to say that.
00:49:20Tell me something.
00:49:22How much do you have to pay to get the eight million?
00:49:25Because I know what it takes to collect that amount of money in the financial world of Africa.
00:49:33We have to pay about 600,000 in bank fees.
00:49:36Like a transfer charge on the front.
00:49:38Yeah.
00:49:39More like compensation for bank officials.
00:49:42My boss.
00:49:43Her boss.
00:49:44His boss.
00:49:45You know.
00:49:46Well I hate assuming but just to be clear you do mean 600,000 dollars.
00:49:51U.S.
00:49:52U.S.
00:49:53Yes.
00:49:54And it took us three years to raise that money.
00:49:58Where is it?
00:49:59Cassini makes me a believer.
00:50:01It's good to believe.
00:50:03It's bad to be able to do this.
00:50:04It's bad to be able to do this.
00:50:05I hope he shows me something good.
00:50:06We're in business.
00:50:07Yeah.
00:50:08My guy.
00:50:09My guy.
00:50:10Yeah.
00:50:11My guy.
00:50:12Yeah.
00:50:13Oh.
00:50:14Oh.
00:50:15It's bad to be able to do this.
00:50:16I hope he shows me something good.
00:50:36Would I have a proposal?
00:50:39You know what? First things first.
00:50:42Let me get my $30,000.
00:50:45And then we'll discuss.
00:50:47Salud.
00:50:58Just give us a couple of hours.
00:51:02Paperwork time.
00:51:03Paperwork time.
00:51:05Paperwork, paperwork, paperwork.
00:51:12Isabel.
00:51:22Hey.
00:51:25Wait.
00:51:27He wants the $30,000 now?
00:51:31We only have $15,000.
00:51:34Okay, okay. I'll see what I can do.
00:51:37Yeah, yeah.
00:51:42Really?
00:51:43We don't have any other options.
00:51:54Please?
00:51:56Just try.
00:51:57Just try.
00:51:58Isabel is still upset with us.
00:52:00She gets what we're doing.
00:52:03She's stubborn. She's not stupid.
00:52:05Isabel.
00:52:06Isabel.
00:52:07Isabel.
00:52:08Isabel.
00:52:09Isabel.
00:52:10Isabel.
00:52:11Isabel.
00:52:12Isabel is still upset with us.
00:52:13Isabel.
00:52:14Isabel.
00:52:15Isabel.
00:52:17She gets what we're doing.
00:52:21She's stubborn. She's not stupid.
00:52:31Isabel?
00:52:34I know that you're upset.
00:52:37But those that we love the most have the power to hurt us the most.
00:52:41What I do when I'm upset or what I try to do is I try to look at it from the other person's perspective and ask myself, why did this happen?
00:52:53Did they set out to hurt me or was this unintentionally because of the other person's choice?
00:53:01We don't always know the outcome of our actions, even when we think we're doing the right thing.
00:53:07I can't ask you to forgive or forget or move on, but I'm begging you to please open the door.
00:53:19We need your help and we're running out of time.
00:53:36Will they go in together?
00:53:39They should. Every team needs a white boy.
00:53:51I'm sorry. I was on the phone.
00:54:13It's done.
00:54:15Did you hear what I said? We did it.
00:54:21Honey, do you mind waiting in the bedroom for me? It's right back there.
00:54:25Thanks.
00:54:33Mrs. Miller? Kathy Miller?
00:54:35Yes?
00:54:36I'm Officer Hopper. This is Officer Moore. We're with the LAPD.
00:54:39I'm afraid we have some bad news. May we come in?
00:54:44Of course.
00:54:51I'm sorry to tell you this, but your husband Damien has been killed in what we believe to have been a robbery in downtown Los Angeles.
00:54:58Robbery?
00:55:00Yes.
00:55:02Please accept our sincerest condolences.
00:55:04What happened?
00:55:06He died on the way to the hospital.
00:55:10Well, where is he? I mean, his body?
00:55:17Glendale Hospital. We'll release the body as soon as the autopsy is complete and you've selected a mortuary.
00:55:22I don't need to, you know, identify the body or?
00:55:29No, that's not needed unless the victim doesn't have a form of identification on their body.
00:55:39God, I just need a moment.
00:55:41I understand. Would you like us to stay for a couple of hours?
00:55:44Um, answer any questions you might have?
00:55:49Uh, no, I just, um, I just need a moment.
00:55:55Our condolences once again.
00:55:56And then no lenses once again.
00:56:26Are you sure there's no way this could be traced back to me?
00:56:30No.
00:56:34I'll call you tonight.
00:56:36Actually, don't.
00:56:38Tomorrow?
00:56:42Damien's dead.
00:56:44You and I...
00:56:46were over.
00:56:48You asked me to do this.
00:56:50And now I'm asking you to leave.
00:56:56You don't think I could go to the police?
00:57:00Your word against mine.
00:57:04What happened to helping me stay here?
00:57:06Look, you got paid, okay? Figure it out.
00:57:19So is this it?
00:57:21Is this goodbye?
00:57:23Call it what you want.
00:57:26You didn't find me.
00:57:28I don't know how to do this.
00:57:29Yes, dude.
00:57:30Stay distance.
00:57:31Okay.
00:57:32I know.
00:57:33Let's go.
00:57:34Let's go.
00:57:35Let's go.
00:57:36I'm going to eat some food.
00:57:43The Swahili say to not throw away your copper for the sake of gold's glitter.
00:58:11This is good, but I'm more interested in what we Americans call joint pension.
00:58:31Took you three years to put together that 600 large, right?
00:58:34Correct.
00:58:35I'm willing to give you back 200,000 in exchange for a third of that 8 million and my pictures.
00:58:44Cash now.
00:58:46In the office today.
00:58:48One third is 2.5 million.
00:58:512.66 to be exact.
00:58:53It's a win-win situation.
00:58:55There's no such thing as a win-win situation.
00:58:57You win, you lose, or it's a tie.
00:59:00Hey, me I don't believe in ties though.
00:59:02Someone always has the upper hand.
00:59:04Someone has to win.
00:59:05Even in a monkey beauty contest.
00:59:08On that note, I'm going to go ahead and change.
00:59:11Mr. Miller?
00:59:12Mr. Obu?
00:59:14I'm going to miss him.
00:59:26In the meantime, make my 200 plus 30.
00:59:35We're still losing too much money.
00:59:37You can't lose what you don't have.
00:59:43You're caught between two notions.
00:59:50CurrencySmart is a new financial tech company that only charges 1% for transactions like our own.
00:59:57This is good.
01:00:04And we're all set.
01:00:13It's all here.
01:00:17These are my copies.
01:00:21And do we have contacts to your people at the bank?
01:00:24No.
01:00:25What the fuck is going on?
01:00:27Andy told her.
01:00:28I'm going to ask him.
01:00:29My guy, don't be a hero.
01:00:31Don't do it.
01:00:32Don't wrestle a pig.
01:00:34You both get dirty and the pig usually enjoys-
01:00:36Shut off!
01:00:39Move.
01:00:40Move!
01:00:48Yes, I would like to report a shooting at 9611 Carroll Avenue.
01:00:53Midwest Accounts.
01:00:54Yes.
01:00:55Hurry, please.
01:00:58What are you doing?
01:00:59Why'd you call the cops?
01:01:02Catch me if you can.
01:01:05Hey!
01:01:06There's no way you can hide.
01:01:08You can't track footprints in the water.
01:01:10No!
01:01:11No!
01:01:12No!
01:01:13No!
01:01:14I can't have them see me like this.
01:01:15What?
01:01:16The cops!
01:01:17They're on their way.
01:01:18Fuck.
01:01:19He's getting away!
01:01:20No!
01:01:21No!
01:01:22No!
01:01:23No!
01:01:24No!
01:01:25No!
01:01:26No!
01:01:27No!
01:01:28No!
01:01:29No!
01:01:30No!
01:01:31No!
01:01:32No!
01:01:33No!
01:01:34No!
01:01:35No!
01:01:36No!
01:01:37No!
01:01:39No!
01:01:40No!
01:01:41No!
01:01:42No!
01:01:43No!
01:01:44No!
01:01:45No!
01:01:46No!
01:01:47No!
01:01:48I tried to chase him!
01:01:49No!
01:01:50He's gone!
01:01:51Well, y'all gotta get the fuck out of here before the cops show.
01:01:54No!
01:01:55No!
01:01:56Yeah!
01:01:57He has more money.
01:01:58No!
01:01:59No!
01:02:00And my money as well!
01:02:01You wanna tell the cops about that too?
01:02:03I can't have the police asking me questions, make those pictures disappear, the two we need
01:02:23right now, right now.
01:02:26We do take our prank calls very seriously.
01:02:54As you should. Unfortunately, I'm as clueless as you are.
01:02:59Huh. Well, we'd like you to come down to the station and provide us with a statement.
01:03:04Well, there's nothing more to say. I mean, as you can see, I haven't been shot. No one's been shot.
01:03:14I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I was working.
01:03:24You know, I still can't wrap my head around it. How did you know?
01:03:30Well, you can't report stolen money.
01:03:33Unless you want to explain where you got it.
01:03:35Exactly.
01:03:36Uh, Shabazz is in our unit.
01:03:44I left a message. He knows we're waiting for him.
01:03:47And we know you guys are going to get home to your girls, so we've got a little something for you.
01:03:51We'll also get you your cut from Shabazz.
01:03:56Well, you didn't have to change your plans for us.
01:03:58Plans are just a set of guidelines.
01:04:01You earned it.
01:04:03And you guys are probably put it to better use.
01:04:10We don't know what to say.
01:04:12Well, thank you is always a good option.
01:04:14That's the start?
01:04:15It's a good choice.
01:04:18You're welcome.
01:04:19Cheers.
01:04:20Cheers.
01:04:33Cheers.
01:05:03Cheers.
01:05:34Cheers!
01:05:35Cheers!
01:05:36What are you talking about?
01:05:58Till, you can call me back here.
01:06:03Okay, we'll talk. Bye.
01:06:09He's not coming, is he?
01:06:13I'll get the money back.
01:06:15How?
01:06:22I made promises to you.
01:06:24I had people counting on this money.
01:06:27You don't think I know that?
01:06:29It's not his fault.
01:06:33This was supposed to be simple.
01:06:37But no, the man with the plan
01:06:41picks a target he's in love with
01:06:43and then we have to depend on his sister.
01:06:46The same sister he doesn't see eye to eye with
01:06:48because of some ridiculous shit.
01:06:50Oh yeah, and then it gets better.
01:06:52He picks a thief from San Diego
01:06:55and puts $200,000 in his hand.
01:06:58What kind of idiotic plan is that?
01:07:00My plans work, okay?
01:07:02I'm the leader.
01:07:03I say who?
01:07:04I say when?
01:07:05I say how?
01:07:06I'm the leader!
01:07:07There's no need to point the fingers.
01:07:08Let's just figure out the next move.
01:07:10Let's...
01:07:11Let's figure out the next move.
01:07:13You two, figure out the next move.
01:07:17But you know what they say, right?
01:07:20Who thinks it's leaving.
01:07:22It doesn't have anybody following.
01:07:24It's taking a walk.
01:07:33What's that?
01:07:34Sebastian!
01:07:35Sebastian!
01:07:36What was...
01:07:37What was that about?
01:07:39What was...
01:07:40What was that about?
01:07:47Really?
01:07:52That's all I get?
01:07:53What was that about?
01:07:54What was that about?
01:07:55And the other one?
01:07:56My dad...
01:07:57I'm the other king.
01:07:58I was like, I'm sorry.
01:07:59You can't see how you think it's coming out.
01:08:02What's that about?
01:08:03Isn't that a loved one?
01:08:04That's my dad?
01:08:05Sometimes I see monsters, or sometimes I fly, or wherever I want to.
01:08:12But when I wake up, with my feet tied in chains, I must still be sleeping.
01:08:19Pray it's all in my head, American dream.
01:08:35None of us is doing this for the money.
01:08:49You keep living in denial.
01:09:00Hello?
01:09:01Sorry, mate. You got the wrong number.
01:09:03Whatever I want to, but when I wake up, with my feet tied in chains, I must still be sleeping.
01:09:12Pray it's all in my head, American dream.
01:09:27What's up, little brother?
01:09:28You don't look happy to see me.
01:09:33When I lay down and dream, sometimes I see monsters, or sometimes I fly, or wherever I want to.
01:09:45But when I wake up, with my feet tied in chains, I must still be sleeping.
01:09:54Pray it's all in my head, American dream.
01:09:57What's up, little brother?
01:09:58When I wake up, little brother?
01:09:59In my head, you're three, or in my head, I'm super...
01:10:00You're two, you're three, or two, you're three, or you're four.
01:10:01Whenever I wake up, I wake up, I wake up with my feet tied in chains, I must still be sleeping.
01:10:05It's all in my head, American dream.
