With Charlie asking for more than Ty'ree can give, the brothers fight to hold it together before they're split apart by social services—or by each other.

Lafayette needs Charlie's help for the upcoming baseball tryouts; Charlie wants 100 dollars from Milagros' box to play guitar at talent night at a new club, but Ty'Ree refuses.

Lafayette tries to ask Angelina out but is interrupted by Charlie, who confesses his true feelings for her. Charlie runs away from home and he leaves when Fix and some guy steal video games, and still does not return home.
