Yall obviously did not watch the show. Teddy in very plain language told his CIA handler that he took $73 million from Franklin, and that he wanted to give this over to the CIA to buy his way back in. I am sure this handler told no one :rudy: We also do not know if this handler had access to the accounts. We don't know anything. Please use your brain. Today in 2023, if the CIA knows there's a slush fund of $73 million, and the operative that brought it up gets killed....on what planet are you...the drug dealer...walking away free? Yall live in goofy town, USA :mjlol:

The hilarious thing about yall is I'm watching Shooter on Netflix and the CIA is killing nikkas on this show just for having the faintest most tiniest connection to their deeds but, yall think they wouldn't notice $73 million going away :russ:
Cause you don’t attention to details.

Teddy has the money

Haymayer or whatever been trying to get him to hand it over saying “hey I might be able to get you back in”

Haymayer boss told him he don’t want the money and to get rid of teddy

The money is in offshore accounts

When teddy is kidnapped by Franklin haymaker is in teddy warehouse looking for codes or Anything he can find to get the money

Teddy plans to kill Franklin and disappear with his girl and the money.

Cia has absolutely nothing to do with the money or even has access to it. Cia can’t take offshore accounts drug money

It was the beginning of the end for Franklin when he killed Andre. It was downhill from there. Franklin didn't deserve a happy ending. He's destroyed to many lives for him to be able to ride off into the sunset. His obsession with money didn't allow him to self-reflect like Lee was able to. Lee showed genuine remorse and contrition for the shyt he's done and vowed to help people. I know Teddy fukking him over is what threw him over the edge but he could of used his brain and bounced back stronger but his ego and pride didn't let him see clearly. What's Cissy did was too late, she enabled the shyt out Franklin and made him worse. She could of done something much earlier. Louie really fukked up trynna be the boss and got Jerome killed in the process, the one person that actually gave a fukk about her. She could of played her position and live off that club and parlay off of that. Broke my heart when Franklin told Lee he was proud of him.

I gotta say Damson Idris did a hell of a job playing Franklin. His range is crazy. He really fleshed out Franklin Saint.


Oh and Teddy was the biggest piece of shyt in the show or at least one of them.

Man, time for my overly deep breakdown...

Tried to avoid spoilers, even though I kept seeing people post picture of the Saint that was down bad...

But wow, that shyt was well done. It's actually bothering the hell out of me, which is signs of a show that really sticks to my core, and I love it.

First of all, it's crazy getting older. Because that CIA/Crack stuff is so openly known now, it's considered common knowledge.

But growing up, anyone who said that was the equivalent to people who talk about aliens and lizard people today, and used to get laughed off the block, and ALWAYS were drunks and fiends. No one took that seriously, and those people were usually seen as losers on the corner.

To people complaining that Frank never appeared to be a villain, are looking too surface level.

He sold out his hood to the slum lord from Season 1, essentially turning South Central into hell. They dont explicitly say that, but you gotta peep game.

He got a fate worse than death or jail, if you know what you are watching. While winning at the same time, in a weird way.

Because death, he is a legend. Remember with Jerome died, and those dudes were rapping about him? That's how we rap about Alpo and Pablo. Remembered forever. In jail, he would've been one of those protected bosses, like so many of dudes like him end up. Sad, but not worse than becoming totally forgotten and alone. He became his Dad, and his son will hate him like he hated his Dad.

No one who wasn't there will believe who he ever was. Since it showed rap and movies were about to take over, all his little dogs and the kids are gonna become big dogs off of the stories of him, Leon, Skully, Rome, etc, while laughing at the "bum" on the corner. He could go to the police, media, every kid on the street telling his story, and no one will believe him since he lived in the shadows, had his criminal record erased, and his peoples are dead, so he's going to come off as the crazy person making shyt up about the CIA tapping his phone was living in an alley.

And they were filming Boyz N the Hood, as you saw the kids wearing the same clothes from the actual movie, which was a dope easter egg. While the biggest kingpin walked through the set and no one even glanced at him.

Top that off, he lived his life straight in terms of no drugs or drinking, but that shyt is in your system. I KNOW people who never did it before, tried it once at 25 and was gone for life, and remember - Frank was still in his 20s!! We forget that all these black kingpins were still 22 year olds, which is crazy.

He also still had a glimmer in his eye that Leon saw. That last speech showed that the real Franklin is buried in the back, and thats the one who told him he was proud and free. Because he had nothing, no expectations, no money, no crew, no one trying to kill him, he literally got out of the game - of life. He died while still living. Still having nightmares, still remembering what he did to others and what he saw.

And if you have ever seen or known anyone like this in life, it's some scary shyt man. Because Im reading social media comments and mad ppl are saying its unrealistic, while I know in my real life people who had Bentleys in 2007 who are rambling on the corner or driving dump trucks in a job in Alabama today, and no one would believe if I told you they was ON ON...

These shows that show how forgotten you become always hit for me. Like Omar in the Wire, he did the worlds illest shyt but none of his story will ever be told - his death was just a blurb in the back corner of newspaper, while he was a hood superhero villain. Same for Frank. People will walk past one of the illest killer drug kingpins to ever live and his story life and death will not matter to anyone except for Leon when he hears about it one day in 2016 or something, while he with his family or doing a VladTV interview.

One last thing, is that this is a crazy world. There are people sitting right next to you on the bus that has seen and lived some of the craziest experiences, and you will never know...
Exactly, there's a bunch of Franklin Saints out there in one shape or another. These are pepole who desperately hold on to the past after their glory days have long passed them. It was a perfectly ending for him. The best that can Franklin can ask for is to clean up like his pops and try to atone in any way. We've seen this happen multiple times in real life.

Before Franklin eventually became an alcoholic, Franklin virtual the entire series became what is call Compulsive Gambling Disease. And it's not just the stereotypical Vegas casino gambling where you hit the jackpot, but you cannot stop, and you begin to lose until you sell your entire saving. It's with anything when you are addicted to chasing money. And Franklin was addicted to that chase. He wanted to have that high of getting immediate large sums of cash.

This is the biggest difference between Leon and Franklin. Both Franklin and Leon had the same idea but approached it differently. Franklin was the first after the end of season 3 of saying he'll sell dope but use it to clean up the community, which he was lying to himself because he was already addicted to making more money. Leon, on the other hand was guilty of what the community has become and him being complicit. But realized that if he cannot take control of the hood, someone like Deon would and make it worse. It was never the money for Leon. Like Leon told Franklin that it's blood money and if he could get rid of it, he would, but he understood the situation.

So right before Franklin came to him asking for that 3 million, Leon was talking to his people about despite taking the L and losing the plug, that they'll adjust and move on. Had Franklin had the mind set as Leon had, NONE of this would have happened in the end. Franklin should have in his mind at all times that the 73M can be taken by the government at any time. It was never his money to begin with. It was an illusion that money was his when Teddy was playing him since season 2 when he convinced to set up those bank accounts. However, Vernique set up his legal money accounts too from the real estate business. Franklin LOST IT when Teddy did that, but he never listened to reason, especially with Vernique because they HAD money through the properties that was way more than the 3 million, he ended up begging Leon for. Even when Franklin out of spite and impulsivity robbed Jerome's and Louie's stash house, he took MILLIONS of dollars from them and MILLIONS of dollars' worth of dope to easily flip into legal money and get out the GAME. But it didn't matter.

So even had he got the 37M or even the whole 73M, Franklin wasn't going to stop. He was in self-destructive mode and anyone around him will receive the negative consequence from it.
He could of sold the stake of the downtown property and kept his remaining properties and stayed afloat. Dude sold those South Central properties not knowing how much there were gonna be worth 30 years later.

I thought south central was on the west side? Isn’t Franklin and his fam from South Central?
Redlining
west side wasn’t South Central until black people starting moving there (Crenshaw District for an example)

Tbh I don’t they kept saying west side but they never specified what hood Franklin stayed in

Knowing John Singleton Rolling 60 dikk riding ass he probably was from the Crenshaw district

Dude, The CIA has BILLIONS, they don't need a little funky ass drug dealer's $73 million dollars.

They don't have the money, it's not their money, it was Franklin's money that Teddy STOLE.

And we do know that the handler didn't have access to the account because The CIA specifically told Hayvermyer to get rid of it and Teddy.

Teddy, Franklin, and the money all ties them to an illegal drug running operation that would eventually come to embarrass the whole country. They wanted nothing to do with any of it.

The DEA didn't even know Franklin was a drug dealer, so they couldn't care less
