“Watch me close now
One good pick’ll get you in, 2 good picks and you gone win
Who sees thuh winner, who knows where it’s at?
Ah you had thuh card but you didn’t have thuh heart
That’s thuh show, We gotta go.”

Abandoned by their parents as teenagers, Lincoln and Booth are used to depending on each other for survival. 

Booth dreams of escaping his troubled childhood by becoming Topdog at the infamous street con game, three card monte.  Lincoln just wants to earn an honest living and get the respect he deserves.  As they struggle to make ends meet, tension gnaws at their daily existence as they each vie for control.

If Lincoln would just get back in the game, everything could be different.

But in this godforsaken world, winning or losing can mean life or death.

Cast:
Booth - Tyronne Lewis
