Look at them, they still buying it, though.

Yes, they're buying twice as much

and only getting half as high.

What was that? Castle can't move like that. Castle move up and down or sideways like.

No, we ain't playing that.

Look at the board, we're playing checkers.

Checkers?

Yeah, checkers.

Why're y'all playing checkers

on a chess set?

Why do you give a shit?

Man, we ain't got no checkers.

Yeah, but chess is a better game.

So?

No, hold up. Y'all don't know

how to play chess, do you?

So?

So, nothing, man. I'll teach y'all if you want to learn.

Come on, man. No, come on.

We're right in the middle of a game.

Chill out, I want to see this.

Y'all can't be playing no checkers on no chessboard.

All right, man.

Look, check it, it's simple. See this? This is the kingpin. And he the man. You get the other dude's king, you got the game. But he's trying to get your king, too, so you gotta protect it. Now the king, he moves one space... any direction he damn choose, 'cause he's the king. Like this, all right? But he ain't got no hustle... but the rest of these motherfuckers on the team... they got his back. And they run so deep, he really ain't gotta do shit.

Like your uncle.

Yeah, like my uncle.

You see this? This is the queen. She's smart and she's fierce. She moves any way she wants,

as far as she wants. And she is the go-get-shit-done piece.

Remind me of Stringer.

And this, over here, is the castle. It's like the stash. It moves like this. And like this.

Dog, stash don't move, man.

Come on, think. How many times we move

the stash house this week? And every time we move the stash... we got to move a little muscle with it to protect it.

True, you're right.

All right. What about them little bald-headed bitches right there?

These right here. These are the pawns.

They're like the soldiers. They move like this,

one space forward only... except when they fight. Then it's like... or like this. And they like the front lines. They be out in the field.

So how do you get to be the king?

It ain't like that. See, the king stays the king, all right? Everything stays who he is... except for the pawns. Now if a pawn... makes it all the way down

to the other dude's side... he gets to be queen. And like I said, the queen ain't no bitch. She got all the moves.

All right, so... if I make it to the other end, I win?

If you catch the other dude's king

and trap it, then you win.

But if I make it to the end... I'm top dog.

No, it ain't like that, look.

The pawns, man, in the game... they get capped quick. They be out of the game early.

Unless they're some smart-ass pawns.
