Quotes 

• Tommy Mickens : [about Sam]  He's just looking out for me.

  Melinda Mickens : Yeah? Well, who the hell's looking out for me and for Joe Lee?

  Tommy Mickens : I don't give a shit who's looking out for him

  Melinda Mickens : Listen to me, little boy. You wouldn't be here if it weren't for him. I was ready to end my pregnancy because it would take me off the circuit for too long. It was Joe Lee who said I ought to go ahead and have you, case you turned out to be a shifter like me.

  Tommy Mickens : Wow. What a saint.

• Melinda Mickens : My back's done shot from all the years I spent in the ring. I ain't able to work now. You wanna just leave me to rot in an alley somewhere?

  Tommy Mickens : Course no, Mama.

  Melinda Mickens : I did it till I couldn't do it anymore, and now it's your turn.

  Tommy Mickens : It ain't right.

  Melinda Mickens : The world ain't right, you selfish little shit. Without you, we ain't gonna survive. We can't do it.

  Tommy Mickens : Yeah, but maybe with Sam's help...

  Melinda Mickens : You can't trust Sam. He may be blood, but he ain't family. And he ain't never gonna be. He looks down on us. Thinks he's better than us.

  Tommy Mickens : Yeah, well, maybe he is.
