ghetto cell

In the inner city of Euka lies a treacherous ghetto. Robert Downy Jr. plays RJ and will be trying to collect information from the ghetto. He was chosen for this part due to his amazing performance as a black man in the hit movie Tropic Thunder. He is dropped off in the inner city and will have to engage and befriend a gang. It was a tricky process trying to get into the ghetto due to the road blocks that cops have posted at to get into the ghetto. But eventually they let him in through a thorough search. He travels along the structure of the ghetto on all the roads. There are many territories that certain gangs occupy and control. Each territory/gang has a gang leader that leads the gang and makes all the decisions. RJ’s goal was to get to meet the leader and be trusted amongst the gang. The gang that RJ must contact is called the Chromosomes.
He is dropped of at the nearest KFC. He started eating, but was soon interrupted by a group of people. He felt like this would be a great opportunity to get into the gang. They masked him and threw him in a van and was transported to the gang leader to be interrogated. He had to answer each question as if his life depended on it. During the interrogation, a deafening blast went off across the street. The 7/11 was up in flames. The gang’s source of beverages and food was destroyed. Fortunately for them, the culprits of the bombing were caught and sent to jail. There was a barricade set up around the entire city so RJ decided to camp out at sugar mama’s house. It was hard to move around the city not just from the cops patrolling, but also there was a lot of construction going on. Finally the heat cooled down and RJ was able to move safely outside the house. Right when he steps out into the day air, RJ gets shot from the massive gang war going on.
