Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Waist Deep is a 2006 American action drama film directed by Vondie Curtis-Hall. It is loosely based on the 1967 film Bonnie and Clyde. Otis "O2" Samuel (Tyrese Gibson) is an ex-convict attempting to turn his life around after his stint in jail, working as a security guard. He leaves work early as his cousin, "Lucky" (Larenz Tate), is late to pick up his son, Otis Jr., in his place. When he rushes to pick him up, Junior ominously asks his father what would happen if he were to never show up. Otis reassures him that such a scenario will never happen. Soon after, a woman (Meagan Good) named Coco tries to sell him some clothes by the red light, which he brushes off. And even sooner after that, a man carjacks him with Junior still in the backseat. Otis runs after him but fails to catch up. He spots Coco within a crowd and stops her, forcing her to help him track down the kidnapper. It turns out that she works for a clothes... pimp named "P-Money" who forces women to sell stolen clothes on the streets, and the kidnapper works for the leader of a large gang, named "Big Meat" (The Game (Rapper)), who was Otis' former partner, and is holding Junior for ransom; specifically, the $100K he believes Otis has stashed somewhere. Otis and Coco team up in order to make ends meet for their respective goals by midnight of the next night.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Aborted Arc: Otis and Coco try to instigate a Mob War between Big Meat and P-Money. We never see it happen, and it's completely forgotten about later on in the movie. | |

"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot: This entire plot would've been avoided had Lucky just picked Junior up. | |

| Waist Deep / int_f9671119 | comment |
Death Equals Redemption: Lucky is basically the entire reason Junior ended up being kidnapped. Therefore, he makes it up by Taking the Bullet for Junior when he's about to be shot in the back during the climactic exchange. | |
