Cabeleira
Hey, Bernice. Listen, I've got something real important to say. Tell me, you ever heard of love at first sight?
Berenice
Sure, but hoods don't fall in love, they just get horny.
Cabeleira
C'mon, you cut everything I say to pieces.
Berenice
Hoods don't talk, they just vomit words.
Cabeleira
Jesus, I'm gonna stop wasting my saliva on you, you sure ain't easy.
Berenice
Hoods never stop, they just take a break.
Cabeleira
Jeez, Bernice, talking about love with you is pretty complicated, isn't it?
Berenice
Love, you gotta be kidding. You're just leading me on.
Cabeleira
But it's just that this jerk here loves you.

What should have been swift revenge turned into an all out war. The City of God was divided. You couldn't go from one section the other, not even to visit a relative. The cops considered anyone living in the slum a hoodlum. People got used to living in Vietnam, and more and more volunteers signed up to die.

The big deal is dope, you got it?
Boy 2
If you wanna be a dealer, you gotta start as a delivery boy, see?
Boy 1
This delivery boy business is real bullshit. The time it takes being a delivery boy, then security and then manager, is way too long.
Boy 2
What you gonna do? You've gotta wait for them to die...
Boy 1
No way! I'll do it just like Pequeno did: you gotta whack everyone and that's it!
