' P.I.N.S' is truly an 'each one, teach one' story. Lamont 'L' Dixon, a 24 year old drug dealer, who is a member of a crew called 'Saratoga Fam' is busted in a sting operation. Shortly after being placed in the precinct's bull-pen, a thirteen year-old bicycle thief is placed in the cell opposite him, The boy, Aaron 'Beebo' Brown, is in store for a magnificent awakening. To kill time, the two begin to engage in a light conversation, that quickly becomes an extremely deep one. Lamont, realizing that he is facing hard time, and is basically finished, decides to share his life story with Beebo, who is reluctant to listen at first, but begins to find himself drawn to Lamont's story, which is full of insight, paradox, and street philosophy. Hours of talking between the two creates an incredible bond, as the two are forever changed by their intertwined realities. Finally, Beebo's father arrives at the precinct to pick his arrested son, and Lamont's crew later bails him out from the courthouse, after Lamont and Beebo promise to look each other up, only after Beebo vows to re-focus educationally. But, tragedy will strike, in a way that gives Beebo new found inspiration to take possession of his life and motivate him to make the vital changes needed to alter his destiny forever. Lamont will go on to redeem himself, and in the process, give Beebo salvation and hope. Told in the language of the streets, and in a, 'HOW ABOUT SOME HARDCORE' style, Lamont and Beebo take you on a true 'hood odyssey.
