The Corner S01E03 - Fran's Blues

"How we look, trying to raise children up in the middle of this craziness?"

Fran has her own drug habit that her son has so far avoided, but DeAndre, still a child, helps support his mother and younger half brother De'Rodd by selling cocaine on the corner. Fran's warnings to her son about selling drugs continue to go unheeded and DeAndre gets busted again. This time, to teach him a lesson, Fran makes no effort to get him out, and he's transferred to the "Boy's Village" for a wake-up call.
