LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA: William Stefan Smith and Calmatic co-directed Netflix's newest program, 'The Vince Staples Show,' which centers on a semi-fictional representation of hip-hop star Vince Staples' everyday life.

The five-part series provides an over-the-top look at Staples' life as he navigates his daily routine.

The last episode of the semi-fictional drama titled, 'White Boy' reveals Vince's long-running animosity with his boyhood classmate, Vincent.

Although the cause of their hostility remains unknown, the appearance of their furious confrontation suggests that it must be something quite grave.

The episode begins with Vince giving a lecture at his former school, surrounded by a class of only Black students who seem uninterested in whatever he has to say.

Nonetheless, towards the conclusion of the class, a student named Junior (Idros Keith) reveals to Vince that his father is his classmate and the two have the same name, which leads to his father's moniker being 'White Boy.'

Vince ignores Junior, but when he walks into Vincent (Patrick Walker) in the parking lot, he gets the shock of his life as Vincent shoots him with barely any hesitation.

Startled, Vince flees and manages to divert Vincent's attention while acquiring a handgun to shield himself from his assailant's fury. Vince then gets dressed in a nearby laundromat, and while out and about, Vincent spots him once more.

Enraged, Vincent started shooting the hip-hop artist mercilessly, but Vince took shelter in a drift shop to protect himself. Vince finally ends the game of cat and mouse by killing the 'White Boy,' rescuing himself in the process.

Eventually, Vince makes his way back home as the TV announces Vincent's murder.

'The Vince Staples Show' is streaming on Netflix.
