In South Central Los Angeles, June of 1983, Franklin Saint sells marijuana for his uncle Jerome. His favorite wrestler, Gustavo "El Oso" Zapata, does work on the side for the Mexican Villanueva Cartel, and is tasked with burglarizing a house by his contact, Pedro Nava. A man enters in the middle of the robbery, and Gustavo kills him in a struggle. After CIA agent Logan Miller dies of a cocaine overdose, Contra soldier Alejandro Usteves approaches Miller's coworker Teddy McDonald and asks him to take up his job of moving cocaine. Franklin's friend and customer Rob Volpe asks him to get him cocaine from Israeli drug lord Avi Drexler, who gives him a kilogram to sell within a day. Jerome refuses to help him, but his girlfriend Louie Jones introduces Franklin to nightclub owner Claudia Crane, who buys the cocaine on the condition that he brings her more. As he and Louie drive away, he notices his homeless alcoholic father Alton Williams, but refuses to speak to him.
