Although there is morality in the underworld, it is full of desire, deception, betrayal, hatred and killing. It is like an intricate road of no return. Once you step into it, you cannot turn back. After reaching a certain level, most of them end up in jail or corpse on the street. Many people have thought about quitting and reforming, but the previous grievances of kindness and virtue cannot be shaken off after all. The male protagonist in the play has been trying to reform himself since he was released from prison, but his kindness will be reciprocated, and his old-fashioned temperament, whether right or wrong, eventually made him fall into a deeper whirlpool. His beautiful vision of life was destroyed in the end. Fate is like a ruthless net that binds his life, no matter how restrained he is, he can't break free of how long he yearns for a better future. Unless he can completely wake up as soon as he comes out, completely abandon his previous communication and completely change his temperament, he will not help lawyers to "save people", and he will not pretend to face conflicts with small drug dealers. Maybe there will be a completely different life.

David Kleinfeld: Fuck you and your self-righteous code of the goddamn streets. Did it pull you out of a 30 year stint in only 5 years? No, it didn't, I did. Did it get you acquitted 4 fucking times? No, it didn't, I did, so fuck you, fuck the streets, your whole goddamn world is this big, and there's only one rule, you save your own ass.

Carlito: If I ever, I mean if I ever see you here again, you die.
[Snaps fingers]
Carlito: Just like that.
