Van, Deaq, and Rosaria sit at a picnic table. Deaq tells Rosaria that she has to memorize the information and know it like the back of her hand. Van quizzes her on their cover story. Deaq is supposed to be her cousin, the son of her Aunt Felicia, who died six years earlier. Van asks if Deaq is the oldest or youngest of Felicia's sons. Rosaria says oldest, and then youngest. Deaq yells at her for wavering; he says that his captain used to make him use flash cards, and that maybe they should make some. Rosaria and Van are against that idea, and Van says that they have to try it again.
Van and Deaq pull up to Alton and Rosaria's house. Van is wearing a bizarre leather fedora, but maybe it's his Run DMC tribute, so I'll let it slide. Van asks Deaqon about his tattoos. Deaqon says that he's supposed to be an ex-con, and ex-cons have tattoos. Deaqon asks Van about his hat, and Van has no excuse for it. Deaq rings the doorbell, and Rosaria answers and says that her husband isn't home. Deaq says that she's lying. Van says they want to meet "the myth, the man, the legend." Van says that Deaq claimed to be Alton's cousin, and Deaq says that he is. Van starts yelling Alton's name into the house. Alton shows up and asks what the yelling is about. Deaq says that they're related. Rosaria explains that they're cousins, and Alton invites them in. Van notices that Deaq and Rosaria are linking pinkies.
Out on the back patio, Rosaria serves the men drinks. Alton lights a cigarette. Deaq makes a comment about how he missed drinking beer when he was in Chino for eighteen months. Wow, that was a smooth segue. Not. Deaq says he heard when he got out that his baby cousin married Alton White, and that he had to come see for himself. Alton says that Deaq must know Two Tears. Deaq says that he heard Two Tears was doing twenty years in Lompoc, which is a long way from Chino. Alton says that Two Tears got transferred to Chino about six months ago, and he knows everyone, and everyone knows him. Deaq says that he knows the name, but that Two Tears wasn't in his gang. Van tells Deaq to ask him. Alton asks what they're talking about. Van says that they want to know if Alton has any jobs lined up, because they need work. Alton asks Van's story. Van says that he never got caught or went to prison, and that's the end of his story. Alton laughs and says that he doesn't "take on stray dogs unless [he] know[s] they can do some tricks." Deaq says that they have a strip club they've been waiting to hit. Cut to various clips from the opening scene of the show, so now we know what that was all about.
