Maxie and Sam go to the courthouse to testify in Bucky’s trial. They talk about how things went after they finish. The jury reaches a verdict of not guilty. Maxie stays behind while Raheem, Stick, and Sam pick up Bucky. Bucky comes out, and they head back home. Police officers pull them over just before they reach their neighborhood. Raheem hands the police officer his license. When the police officer asks for registration, Stick opens the glove compartment, forgetting the gun is there. The police yell and shoot at the car. They demand everyone get out of the car. Everyone gets out except for Stick, who has been shot. Sam tries to go to Stick, but the police and Raheem tell him to stay where he is. Sam complies and watches as Stick sits helplessly.

Raheem and Sam wait in a holding cell until they are called in for questioning. Raheem explains to Sam that this was not unforeseen and that they all figured that the police would come after Bucky when he was released. Sam is disheartened by the losing battle he feels that he is fighting. Raheem tells Sam not to answer anything when he is questioned.
