Craig family weren’t about sh!t, they wouldn’t loan him $200, really $100 if you add the other $100 Smokey had until payday


But they all running out the house worried sick when him and Smokey got shot up

I think the running theme of the movie was that Smokey (and Craig too for just hanging out with him) played too much and were kind of immature habitual line steppers so their families didn't really believe they were in all "that" much trouble until the very end. I think with Craig losing his job in the beginning and his girlfriend playing on the phone when his mom picked up the phone and Smokey showing up over to his house all the time...those scenes were setting up how Craig's family loved him but thought he was immature because of the people he was around and probably just thought he wanted to borrow the money to smoke "tweed" as his pops said with his best friend ominously named "Smokey." Even when his dad caught him with the gun, he didn't realize Craig was in a real serious situation and instead encouraged him to fight with his hands if it came down to it.

I don't think any of them realized until around this scene when Craig's mom and Smokey's mom are now outside looking for them how serious a situation it was with multiple people (Big Worm and his hitmen plus Deebo as well) after them. For example, contrast the earlier scene when Craig's sister Dana laughs at him when he asks to borrow money from her with how worried she now appears to be in this scene along with the rest of the families.

People complaining about small amounts of money like they don't matter would never be good accoutants. That shyt adds up quick. 10 dollars here, 50 cent there 200 hundred etc.
By the end of the year you wondering why you have 10K less than you budgeted with nothing to show for it.

shyt unrealistic af. A dude owe me $200 for a zip I fronted him but I'm not going to spend more money just to clap his ass, just gone catch him slipping when I see him and beat the brakes off him and run them pockets for my bread

It's clear that this wasn't Smokey's first time fronting on Worm given he was going to air him out over 200.

Crazy to think Smokey was more scared of Deebo than Big Worm
That shyt truly makes no sense. The neighborhood bully has you more shook than the kat that, rumor has it, murked someone for one-fourth of what you currently owe him.

Couldn't be me. I would've been pulling jack moves, and I'm not anywhere close to a street kat.
