[Boyz n the Hood] Why in the fuck did Ricky suggest to Tre “Let’s split up” when they’re running from armed and dangerous gangsters?

r/

To be honest that whole scene really didn’t make sense. I mean after they cut through the houses he stops to take a piss, and afterwards they don’t immediately start legging it home. Also, Ricky is interested in his lottery scratch card, not thinking about the fact that there are gangsters with guns looking to kill him.

I mean what the fuck was he thinking?

    Because if you think your friend is more likely to get caught first then splitting up is a good idea. It means that one of you dies while the other has a chance to escape.

    It is a cold move but it has the chance to save at least one life.
