If just because Lobos has lost faith in James and is ready to no longer think of James as an exception but instead like the rest of the, well said word I don’t wish to post.īut, don’t think Ghost, Lobos, and Vibora are the only ones proving they are gangster. And I say this solely because Lobos approaches him and seems interested in maybe working with him. One man, Carlos “Vibora” Ruiz seems to be someone who isn’t letting on how much he may really know. From there, both Tommy and Ghost go around seeing who knows what when it comes to the local gangs. So, since the man wouldn’t open his mouth, he gets shot in the head. Leading you to wonder if not only will James take it, but who he may have to betray in the process? For I doubt this deal is going to extend to every last associate of his.įocusing back on the local jealousy, though, with one of Ghost’s runner getting hit he decides to handle a possible person who may know something personally, to no avail.
However, there is the chance they may give him a way out. Angela finds herself on a task force aimed squarely at taking Lobos out, and though James’ connection isn’t fully discovered yet, surely it will be. Something which becomes slightly difficult as others get jealous of this lucrative deal. Lobos is using James and Tommy to get his product into New York, and in their deal, James and Tommy are supposed to make sure Lobos doesn’t have to worry about the local gangs and gets his money on time. One in particular with a Mexican drug cartel known as Lobos is one of the main reasons they look so successful. Still, though, with them rising up in the game comes the need for alliances. Thing is, James seems to be slowly distancing himself from being at the heart of the business and leaving Tommy to the drug game. Something his close friend Tommy (Joseph Sikora) doesn’t seem to fully get for more money is made dealing than with this club in which they are losing money, and because it is losing money, and the drug game is what is supporting both their lifestyles, to Tommy that should be their real focus.
However, with the power and prestige that comes from doing legit work, it seems this is where James wishes to be. His dad was a nightclub owner, as James is now as a front for his main current business. When it comes to James, his main inspiration in life comes from his father who has passed on. Topic 2: The Business Man – James & Tommy How far he may go though is up to question. She is the self-described around the way girl who left the neighborhood, went to college, became a lawyer, and upon Ghost seeing her after 18 some odd years, despite his marriage and kids with Tasha, old feelings rise and he seems to want to explore them. Said honor may belong to Angela (Lela Loren) who can be considered the one who got away. After all, she is a ride or die chick who may not be tested often, but when she is asked to do something there are no question but where and when?īut, from what it seems, Tasha wasn’t always first choice. James, under the persona “Ghost,” was hustling to make money and Tasha was cool dating a thug, and still is. Before the fancy suits, Gucci purses, and Tasha having red carpet attire, both were just working poor folk. Of course, though, things weren’t always this nice. He has two daughters and one son with wife Tasha (Naturi Naughton), and they live the life of the upper crust. When it comes to James, three things come to mind.
