The Intent 2: The Come Up
Things may be fine within Jay's gang, but one day his ambitions seem to have failed because of his loyalty to both his crew and crime chief Hackney Beverley. Jay may lay the foundation for his own organized criminal gang one day but it may be wrong. Because of this, Beverly discovers Jay's lack of loyalty, as well as a trip to Jamaica that has torn the crew up one time. It is also bad that all these gangs are monitored by the secret police officer, Matt Jones, which is very bad.
