Lil' man has returned from his trip to the Navy Base turning out a few Night Owls using Belinda as the bargaining chip to assure their return.  Little man for the first time has had to be a real hard nose pimp and force his will upon the Night Owls.  To his surprise with great success. 

Lil' Man understands how Belinda has made it this far in her life but he is perplexed as to how everyone falls for her bullshit.  Momma Teal is happy that Little man has taken control of Belinda and is forcing her to kick her drug habit.  

Lil' Man has convince Belinda that he intends to make her his number one as long as she shares all of the money she has been stashing with plans to get out of the life. Little Man has no intention of letting her go with the money, or letting her go at all.  In fact he is more inclined to do something quite the opposite and fulfill her tearful wish that was made in haste while in the small motel room on the way back from the Navy base. 

 Black Charlie’s place was silent other than the whirring of an oscillating fan.   Black Charlie spat the words unceremoniously.
