instant love
los angeles, california. luther and the gang drive in the van as the rain continues to fall. they pass around “a bottle juarez might as well have pulled out of his back pocket” with no label. tweetie, who's driving, is the only one to turn it away. luther notices how everybody has stopped picking on hopi. when they arrive at their destination, they search the area and see that nobody's around. hopi asks piña in a whisper if this is when he's going to get jumped into the gang. piña shushes him. the crew notices big holes in the ground that have filled with water. juarez pushes hopi into one of them. luther gets on the ground and reaches in. at first he can’t find hopi anywhere, but finally grabs him by a handful of hair and yanks him out. hopi asks luther when he’ll have tattoos like luther's. victor says he can start getting them after he's jumped in. luther asks what he keeps a blue pencil for. “ink scares me.” luther asks what he uses it for. he says he uses it to write stuff when he gets befuddled. juarez says he's a cop. piña brushes him off. hopi tells them that he enjoys writing, but luther feels like there's more to it. earlier in the day they’d pulled over for a visit with an old pimp named nacho mirande. one of the girls in his building recognized hopi and ran out into the rain to give him a huge hug. back in the van, luther asks hopi how he knows the girl. hopi says he's "gotta put that blue pencil to use somehow.” by the holes, luther slaps hopi three times. hopi takes the hits. he thanks luther when a fourth doesn’t come. “is that it?” hopi asks. “am i in?” luther says he isn’t, then starts punching him hard, splitting his lip. hopi falls to the ground and stays face-down. juarez kicks hopi twice. he rears back to do a running kick but slips and falls, piña laughs. juarez reaches into his back pocket and pulls out nunchucks. tweetie grabs hopi by the hair and pulls him to his knees. juarez smacks a nunchuck against his knee and howls in pain. hopi again asks if he's in. tweetie pulls out a gun. when hopi sees the gun pointed at him, it dawns on him that this isn’t an initiation. he begs piña to intercede. she turns away. he begins to sob. luther rips off hopi's necklace and tosses it to piña. he orders juarez to get hopi out of his jacket and empty his pockets. when he does, he finds the blue pencil and a grilled cheese sandwich from earlier wrapped in tinfoil. hopi says it was for his mother. hopi begs luther to let him live. luther grabs him by the neck and drags him to the edge of one of the holes. luther then walks around to the other side of the hole. tweetie, juarez, piña, and victor form a wall behind hopi. luther orders hopi to stand up. he complies. luther peels off his shirt to reveal his tattoos, scars, and bullet wounds. he holds his arms out wide, then “steps forward and walks on water.”
