Fuck.

Fuck. Oh, shit.

No.

disconnected or is no longer in service please check the number and try your

call again

I was told that if I ever needed help, serious help, to call you. Let me ask

again. How did you get this number?

He said you'd ask that.

The man who gave it to me. And he said not to say. That doesn't make very much

sense, does it?

How do I know that I can trust you if you won't tell me who gave you this

number?

He said to say.

There's only one man in the city who can do what you do.

He said, that man is an expert.

That man is a professional.

And he said, you can never predict the future, and that maybe one day I may

that one man.

And that one man is you.

Word.

And what happened?

Now, what I need you to do is going to be difficult, but you can do it, okay?

I need you to activate the do not disturb light for your room and then do

absolutely nothing until I get there. You understand?

Good. You're not to leave the room.

You're not to make any phone calls. You're not to touch anything.

You're not to answer the door. You're not to pour yourself a drink to steady

your nerves. You understand?

Repeat that back to me.

Okay, that's great. You're doing great. Yes, I'll be there as quickly as

possible.

How will you know it's me?

This is how you'll know it's me.

Everything's going to be fine.

I'll be there before you know it.

Thank you.

Come in.

Did you talk to anyone?

No. Call anyone?

No, no one.

Text, any kind of communication at all?

No, nothing. I sat there just like you said.

Good.

Pour yourself that drink now.

Any kind?

Strong is probably best.

Do you want something?

Thanks, no.

Does anybody know you're here?

I don't think so, no.

You don't think so?

No, no one knows I'm here.

What about the room?

Did anyone recognize you when you checked in?

No, I used an alias. I always do.

I mean, any time I get a hotel room, not when I'm... I understand. That's good.

I got the room right after I met.

I made him wait by the elevator so no one would... I don't do this.

It isn't something I do. All right, listen. I want you to look at the time.

Is there anyone that would be concerned if they haven't heard from you yet?

Oh, God.

Thank you.

No, I generally go and do as I please.

Good. I understand.

And you can make all of this go away. That's why you called me.

He was jumping on the bed.

Then he fell and crashed into the glass.

This would be the end.

Everything I've worked so hard to build. And we're on the verge of doing

something truly important. We don't have time for that. We don't have much time

at all.

It wasn't my fault.

I didn't do anything. None of it matters.

It doesn't matter.

Okay?

No, no. Listen to me.

You need to know this.

I didn't do anything.

We were... If you were here right now, where would you be?

What? What do you mean? If this was a normal night, and you weren't in a $10

,000 penthouse suite with a dead prostitute face down in a pool of blood

broken glass, where would you be?

You were not a prostitute.

Home. I would be home working, watching TV with my daughter. Okay, good.

That's where I want you to be now.

Okay. Okay. You're home.

You're sitting on the couch.

What's your daughter's name?

I have two daughters.

Julia, that's who I would... All right. You're watching TV with Julia.

Okay. I will make sure that none of this gets traced back to you in any way,

like it never happened. Whatever it takes, no matter what.

Thank you.

That's the job.

When I was given your number, I thought it was a joke.

I didn't know people like you really existed.

They don't.

There's nobody who can do what I do.

Say hello. What?

Say hello.

Hello. What?

Hello?

No service, please. Thank you.

Can I help you?

I don't think so, no.

Who are you?

I'm here to take care of your problem.

Who's he?

I called him.

Ah. Who called you?

Yeah. Got it.

Does, I know.

It's weird.

Okay.

Hello?

Who is this?

I completely understand, and I have no doubt that we can come to some sort of

agreement that satisfies us both.

Well, I hardly think you're in a position to be negotiating anything.

Uh -huh.

Fair point.

That is a fair point.

So, tell me.

What would you suggest?

Hidden fucking camera, that's illegal surveillance. That's a class B felony in

the state of New York.

Class D felon. You're more than welcome to leave, sir. Your services are no

longer required.

Come on.

What's at play here?

I don't know what you're talking about, sir.

What?

You did check to see... Okay.

You're on speaker.

Hello? Other men there? Can you hear me?

Yes, they're here.

Wonderful. Now then, we... We clearly have a situation here, and time is of

essence, so I'm not going to mince words.

My name is Pamela Dowd -Herdry. This is my hotel.

It's very new, it's very expensive, and I have a clear vested interest in

minimizing any sort of controversy associated with it. I am very aware of

stigma that can become attached to a building, and I'm not interested in

the owner of a hotel where a district attorney, whom I greatly admire and

work I believe in very much...

was found with a dead prostitute. So that being said, I have brought in

I know through a trusted friend to take care of this problem.

He is an expert. He is the very best there is. There is, quite simply, no one

else out there who can do what he does.

Thank you, Pam.

Now, of course, my guest has her own interests at stake as well and feels the

need to make sure those interests are protected, which is why she has insisted

on maintaining her own.

to ensure this little problem goes away. And as we have reached an impasse as to

whose man would be better suited to accomplish the task, we have decided

the only course of action is for you both to work together to clean up this

absolute fucking clusterfuck of a mess.

Hello?

No.

Pam, I'd like to have a word.

Please, wait. No. Please.

No. Wait a minute. You're joking, right? This is a joke. You can't just leave.

It's not how I work.

How do I know I can trust him? I don't know this guy.

Well, sure, maybe.

Maybe he's just some knucklehead.

You don't know me. How do you know you can trust me?

I don't, but I trust the man who gave me your number because when he says

something, it has value, and he said I could trust you.

Well, Pam, I don't see how that has anything to do with me, does it? Are you

appealing to my sense of honor? Because that's not how this works. Which is not

how I work.

He said if you take the job, you give your word. And that word's the measure

a man.

Not like this.

You're on those tapes, too.

Forget about me.

If you don't finish the job, she's got you.

The camera.

I know he can see me.

Fine.

The feeling's mutual.

Okay. So, now what?

Well, I need to know.

to know everything you did tonight.

Starting from when? Starting from when things went from a normal night to this.

Sit down.

All right.

I was at an event a few blocks away.

After it was over, I wanted a drink. I liked the bar here, and I just walked in

and was headed for the ladies' room when this kid started talking to me.

He was funny, and he was charming. He was so out of place, and I just said,

know...

Do you want to get a room?

It's sort of a joke.

Sort of not.

He said sure.

And you never met him before?

No. No one saw you together?

No. And then you came upstairs.

I don't understand why you need to know all this. Because I need to know what I

need to make disappear. We. What?

We need to know.

So you came upstairs.

We were drinking and fooling around. Excuse me, when exactly did you get the

room? Before I came upstairs.

Before she came upstairs.

Before you met the kid or after you met the kid? After I met the kid. Before I

came upstairs.

Okay, thank you. I didn't know.

Proceed.

So you were drinking and fooling around. Was there ever a discussion of money?

He's not a prostitute.

No, hey!

It's already fucking embarrassing and humiliating enough as it is. I don't

understand why I have to answer everything twice.

You don't have to answer everything twice. You might have to answer a few

twice. Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ. Do I know what the two of you have spoken

about? No, I do not. I'm trying to get up to speed.

So you brought this 20 -something non -prostitute up to your room. You began

drinking, fooling around, and... And he goes into the bathroom, and he comes

out. He starts jumping up on the fucking bed, and he falls backwards onto the

fucking bar cart and fucking drops dead.

Is there anyone who might be concerned they haven't heard from you tonight?

You're going to get cleaned up?

You're going to take your things? You're going to leave?

I'm covered in blood.

You're going to go home?

And you're going to see your family act like nothing ever happened?

What?

Um, did you by chance...

So you'll be in touch to coordinate the... Don't worry about it. That time

come. But not now.

And what exactly will happen to him?

To who?

Hey sweetie, did you eat? I'm on my way home. I could pick up some food.

What are you doing?

You know, I was giving you the benefit of the doubt, letting you clean up

unsupervised.

Unsupervised? Wow, that's an honor.

I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of what is happening

Do I?

Yes. I want to finish the job and go home.

And that is where there is a fundamental misunderstanding.

Enlighten me.

Well, your job is to make sure that that mess behind you cannot be traced back

to your client. And to do that, you have to make sure that that mess disappears

completely, as if it never happened.

Difficult. For you, maybe. Well, that's irrelevant, because my job is to make

sure that you do your job so that that mess cannot be traced back to this

Less difficult.

So you're just going to sit there and slurp your soda.

I'm going to... supervise.

Fuck you.

Just don't touch anything.

You're

gonna

get blood on your sweater.

I won't get blood on my sweater.

Oh shit.

I told you not to touch anything.

It's going to be a long fucking night.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I don't understand.

Why can't you simply dispose of the drugs as well?

There's zero reason why a kid in the park overdosed, half frozen, rich or

they know the story. They find a dead kid overdosed in the park with $250 ,000

worth of heroin. They're going to ask questions.

I have no clue what either one of you just said.

Uh,

no it's not.

tracker in there tracker you don't think they'd already be here if there was it

how the hell are we gonna figure out who this belongs to

body person the drugs listen if i were you you're not hey i

don't want this to take all night it won't okay then so oh now you want to

involved fuck you hey you want to help why don't you call your boss and have

clear out the parking garage. We can take the body down to the tarp.

You're joking. You have to clean the surveillance anyway. No one's going to

it.

Oh, I get it.

What?

Nothing. Just looking for you. I'm here. Otherwise, you're caught. I get it.

I'm trying to save time.

No, it's okay. You don't have to explain. You can't do it. I'm going to

out. I can do it.

Really? Yeah, really.

So do it. Maybe I don't want you to see how I do it.

Whatever you say.

Don't call your boss. Don't call.

Fuck it.

Well, that's one way to do it.

Looks like a dead body on a luggage cart.

I'm not finished yet.

Here's a lesson.

You don't have to help.

I don't need you to help.

But if you do, you'll go back.

I am enjoying the show

Thanks. Happy help.

Dick.

Wait.

What?

The parking garage is on a different security system.

You're an asshole.

I just wanted to see how an old man would do it, but your secret's safe with

It's a red one.

That should buy you an extra five.

I have a farm.

Have a Bob!

Just don't interfere.

The old cone in the gate?

Another trade secret?

Let's wipe the tapes and go.

No. No?

Although I am curious to see how you would have navigated this next situation

without me.

I'm afraid I have to do this one alone.

Excuse me? I will wipe the tapes. I just can't let you watch.

Yeah, see, this is a two -way street. I was told specifically to make sure you

do not see this.

By who?

Your boss.

She doesn't want you back there. We got hidden cameras in a brand new luxury

hotel. What kind of a scam are you running? You're not going back there.

What are you hiding? Who are you exactly?

Who am I? Fuck you, who am I? Who are you? Some old bag man? Some old cleaner?

I'm not letting you in there. That's big talk coming from a hotel policeman.

Big talk coming from the A .V. club.

I'm on those tapes and I'm not leaving until I'm not. I wouldn't give a shit.

How do I know it's not some kind of a setup?

Oh, please. How?

Setup how?

Maybe your boss brought that kid here on purpose.

Go on. Yeah. Maybe she brought him because she knows he's got drugs.

Or maybe she gave him the drugs and she's setting both of them up. They're

having a good time. They're drinking. They're laughing. All of that. But she

wants him to overdose.

And she's got it on tape.

Yeah? Yeah. And then she makes a deal with my boss to clean the whole thing up

like it never happened.

But she keeps the tape.

For what?

For leverage, you dumbass. Leverage for what, dipshit? Tell me, asshole. It

makes no fucking sense. You've seen too many movies.

Fuck.

Shit.

Fuck.

You okay?

All good.

Yep.

Doesn't make sense. It wasn't breathing.

You didn't check his pulse? Fuck you, I didn't check his pulse. He didn't have a

fucking pulse. And yet, and yet, you didn't check his pulse. You didn't ask.

It's fundamental.

It's the first thing you do. He didn't have a fucking pulse. And yet, and yet,

you didn't ask. You didn't say, is he dead? I didn't think I had to. You think

didn't check his pulse? No, I do not. I think you got rattled. I think you

forgot.

You walk into a situation, you see two people standing there, one on the floor.

You don't ask, does he have a pulse? You don't ask, is he dead? You check for

yourself. Thank you, Sensei. Yeah.

It was the drugs. Oh, that's just lazy bullshit. It doesn't work that well.

Well, he's not dead.

It would appear not.

Just admit you didn't. Would you shut up? I'm trying to think. Oh, it was a

magic drug that makes your heart beat. Would you shut the fuck up? It doesn't

matter.

It's a different thing now.

Wait, this is great.

Think about it.

He's got to know.

We need to go. We need to hurry.

It's not a guarantee. I know, but we need to go now before his brain turns

into...

Applesauce. Probably already is applesauce. Listen, I don't want to have

door to door like some fucking Jehovah's Witness trying to return four fucking

bricks of God knows what did that to him, do you? Was that your plan?

I'm trying to make a point. It is worth a shot.

I agree.

Okay, then.

I know someone.

Fuck no.

What? My guy's good. Fuck your guy's a bullet holder. The only way that goes

sideways. Fuck you. We're using my guy. It only works with my guy.

It's exclusive.

My car, my guy. Fuck you.

And?

Pick up.

Where are we going?

Chinatown. Take it right out of the exit.

I know how to get to Chinatown.

The Albanians.

What? The Albanians had this thing a while back.

Yeah, I know. Massive shipment of pure uncut heroin en route from Europe

suddenly just disappears.

I know.

You think those bricks came from that shipment? You can just take them back

yourself. Well, I'm not interested in being murdered, I'm saying.

The Albanians will kill and have killed anybody they even suspect of stealing

that shipment. So whoever did it sends his kid in to be a honeypot to seduce my

client to get some political flex.

crack down on the Albanians to clear the playing field to sell the drugs.

So they send in the kid with the backpack. They wanted to take the drugs.

wanted to overdose.

Keep at it. You'll crack it eventually.

I got to clear you first.

Okay. It just falls up there. Okay.

Nope, not tonight.

It's not about that. I'm sure it's not.

Come on, really.

It's real. I need help.

What kind of help?

Well...

So, uh, yeah.

Hold on, I'm coming down.

What happens to

the kid after he talks?

If he talks, my job's done.

So this other guy kills him.

Do you vouch for him?

He's been all right.

I'm not going to vouch for him. I can't go that far.

He's like, you know, he's like one of those guys, you know? No, I don't know.

One of what guys? One of those guys thinks he's like some genius who got it

figured out, you know? Yeah, I'm familiar with that type. Look, I don't

pick this kid up just so you can put a bullet in his head. You know, he's had

his moment, you know, where he was the go -to guy, the hot shit guy, but that

wore off a long time ago, and no one's told him yet.

Probably lives in a single -bedroom apartment, watching old black -and

movies till he falls asleep, and he's so lonely.

Hello, June.

Hello.

You didn't pick up.

I know.

Is there really a kid in your trunk?

So how long have you two been... Not what you think. You told him it was

exclusive. Are there more? Is there really an Odeon kid in your trunk?

if there is... Was he before me? Yes.

Yes? Yes. No. Yes?

Yes. Can we take care of the Odeon kid first, you fucking lunatics?

You need to be careful, both of you. There are people out there. They saw you

two together. You said it was exclusive.

What? You did.

Come on.

Bring him in here.

And careful off your back.

Yep.

All right.

On three. Ready?

Wait. One, two, three, right? Not one, two, three, go.

Of course not.

Good.

One, two, three.

Do you know what he took?

Not sure.

Well, it must have been some bad combination or something.

Extremely pure.

God, it's like he doesn't even have a heartbeat.

I know a lot of paramedics would have called him.

Oh, really? We just need him to talk. Look at this straight. You're saying it

like he took some kind of a magic drug.

So how many makes your heart beat so slow? How many clowns you got running

through this joint? Now, it's really not the time. No? I need to pick up on it.

Okay, both of you out. Now.

I had my suspicions.

Never saw anyone or heard anything, so I didn't ask.

It makes you feel any better. She is the best.

Sure.

My first guy, I came in to get a bullet pulled out of my side. He wants to put

me under.

I said, fuck no.

Come to find out, he's taking people's kidneys without asking them.

People are waking up and thinking, hey, that's a big scar for getting a bullet

pulled.

She saved my life.

No kidding?

Yeah, shrapnel. Means away from my spine.

Spent two weeks in the basement recovering.

Back in October?

Maybe. How would you know that?

I was here.

Come on.

I was wondering why she didn't let me near the cellar.

She is the best.

She is.

I guess I knew it wasn't exclusive.

What are the odds, right?

Both of us sleeping with the same Chinatown doctor.

Oh, were you two not?

Oh!

Get in the car.

Not the fucker.

Come on.

What have you got?

No. Come on, we just need to...

Take two of the big ones every couple of hours and one of the small ones every

six and lots of water.

Also, I'm not sleeping with him. He's just fucking with you.

Yeah, he's fucking with you.

Maybe I do.

Of course you do.

Knock it off!

You know what you sound like? What?

You sound like a guy who's got a place.

You've got a place.

Let's go to your place.

I'm not going to my place. Why not?

That's the point of having a place.

Exactly.

Get dressed.

Need a room?

Love, Ness, Arabian Nights, or safari? Excuse me?

Love, Ness, Arabian Nights, or safari?

Love, Ness, Arabian Nights, or three minimum? Safari, I can do by the hour.

He's not a prostitute.

Sit down.

How do you want to do this? Because I've never really done it like this.

Start, I guess. Then I just jump in when it feels right. Yeah, unless you want

to start.

No, you go. You go. You got this. I'll just follow your lead.

So.

Where'd you get the drugs?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Where'd you get the drugs?

I don't know. I don't know anything about any drugs.

Where did you get the drugs?

I don't know.

Talk, asshole.

Show him the rest.

Huh? Now.

Those aren't mine.

Can I talk to you in the hall just for a minute?

What the fuck do you think you're doing?

You asked the same thing three times. You didn't know we had the drugs. He was

panicked. He wasn't going to say anything. You don't know that.

How many times are you going to ask? Ten times? Twenty times? Hey!

There's an art to this you may not realize.

What, do you want to say the same thing over and over?

Okay, well, let's see your technique.

I'm not going to show you my technique.

Because you don't have a technique.

No. No? Then why?

Because you'll steal it.

I'll steal it. You think I'll steal it? There you go, repeating again. You don't

have a technique.

I do, and I'll tell you it involves a little bit more than saying the same

over and over again.

I showed you my luggage cart trick.

You didn't show me. I saw it.

Yeah, but you liked it. You'll use it.

Maybe.

Come on. Admit it. Yeah, it's cool.

Okay, fine. It was very cool. Yeah, it's cool.

So what's the next movie?

Can't we just get to it?

What do you mean?

I'll not be here.

You miss your place.

I feel like I'm getting syphilis just standing here. Let's just get... 200.

Really? Why not?

Let's get to it.

Chris.

Where'd you get that fucking drug?

LaGrange. They call him LaGrange.

LaGrange?

What about it? They're his or they were the drugs.

Bullshit. How?

How? What do you mean? How what? How? How does someone like you get involved

with one of the biggest drug runners in the city?

Well, so...

I'm not a prostitute, okay? That's not what's happening. How did you get the

drugs? Fuck you! I'm fucking trying to explain! Just let me explain!

Let me explain, okay?

Can I get a glass of water?

Thank you.

So I wake up. Jesus Christ, kid, you woke up and you gotta start the story

there? Just let him talk.

Yeah, not gonna make sense if I tell you the whole thing. You think you need to

add in the detail that you woke up in case it wasn't clear?

Yes, I do. It's how I started my day.

That's how everyone starts a day! What he's saying is take a minute to think

about what's the most important part of the story and leave the rest out. Well,

uh... Hey! I... Think about it.

Right.

Um... Well, so I'm...

I'm getting up, and I'm getting out of bed, and, um, uh, you know, my room is a

mess, and I'm not exactly hungover, but I'm still feeling a little bit shit.

Fuck. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Okay, I, I, I, yes.

I leave my house. No, and just let him do the whole thing. He can't do it. No,

can do it. No, you can't. Yeah, I can.

Just go fast. Okay, yes. Now. I, uh.

What the fuck happened? Yes, okay, so I'm like.

I wasn't trying to make any money or anything, like be a drug dealer.

I've been taking classes at Pace. I've been trying to learn business, some

business classes.

You know, people are gonna try and fuck you with, like, law and legal shit

unless, you know, you know how it works. So I'm taking these classes, and

there's this dude there, and he's, like, legit. He is from some real shit, but

he's, like, so smart also. I mean, he's, like, basically a genius smart. And

today, his fucking mom died.

Like, he got this call in class, and his fucking mom was in the hospital, and

she fucking died because they didn't, like, give her the right medicine or

shit. Like, they fucked up.

So I'm just like, dude, whatever you need, dude. And he, like, trusts me.

we hang out and shit. And I told you, he's legit. Like, no fucking... around

he's like he's like i'm supposed to do this job for my boss and now i can't and

i was like say no more i will do it like i don't do this kind of shit so he

gives me the shit and i'm like fuck fucking serious, but his mom just

died, so I say, okay, dude, I'll do it, so I'm killing some time before I get

the address for the drop, and I'll admit it, I'm feeling pretty fucking cool,

but also it's scary and shit, and my heart's like fucking pounding out of my

chest, so I duck into this bar, it's like this hotel bar, and I'm kind of

feeling myself, because like I'm on some real shit, and it's like people are

noticing, like girls are fucking noticing, like I've got the fucking

of a sudden, and it's like, I didn't even like take a shower this morning,

know, like, like I was, trying to save a four and it's like three fucking girls

they just start talking to me like hot girls like i've got the fucking juice to

buying me drinks and shit because i'm broke

And then I'm coming out of the bathroom and this older lady, she's fucking hot

too, is straight up like, do you want to come up to my room? And I'm like, yes,

yes, yes, of course. This is my life. Why not live it? And it's like, Diego's

mom just fucking died.

So I'm thinking about my life and I'm thinking about how it could just all go

away at any time.

And so we're partying and I fucking, I fucking, I just wanted to see what it

like. You know, it's like there was magic in there, wrapped up in plastic,

it was radiating out and I just wanted to try it. Just the tiniest amount.

because it's like today was like the first day that i ever felt cool not that

you guys would understand like the coolest guys i've ever seen but i was so

careful like i was so careful you would never know that i tried it but i did i

did try it and it didn't make me feel cool it just i just i just i just like

is

that it

I think so, yeah.

Okay, then.

What's the address for the drop?

Don't know. Where's your phone?

I hid it.

In the hotel?

No, before I left.

Why?

In case something happened. In my wallet, too, in case I got picked up.

you going to get the address of the drop if you don't have your phone?

The pager.

Pager? Where's your pager?

I don't have a pager.

Was this, like, the 90s? Who has the pager? No one. No one has the pager?

No. Where is it? Diego left it for me at his work.

Where? It's called Club Ice.

Used to be, uh, something, uh, Palazzo. Uh, I don't know. He bartends there

sometimes.

This guy Diego, why would he trust you?

I guess... because we're friends.

Do you guys... you don't think it's too late?

Early, late.

You took the job, you give your word.

You gotta finish it.

Right.

You guys see that?

How long have you both worked together for?

As long as I'm counting.

You can tell.

Is that so?

Oh, yeah. Yeah,

you got, like, basically the same clothes, kind of talk the same, you

like, basically the same guy.

Hey, everything's gonna be okay, right, after I make the drop?

Because I have a really big exam next week. I really don't want to screw that

up. You don't have to worry about that.

I'll be two seconds.

You're hilarious.

What? No, no, I won't run. Well, in that case... No, seriously, just go in and

I'll get the page. It'll be fine.

All right? I promise. I'm not gonna... What?

Is that...

Croatian?

We're both looking at each other like that.

You did that thing down at Gowanus, didn't you?

No, why would you say that? I wondered why he didn't call me when I heard what

shit show that was. No, that wasn't a shit show.

So you did do Gowanus.

What is happening?

Not sure what happened to the body, though.

You know, that explosion at the evidence warehouse in the Bronx?

You're kidding.

It was you?

Yeah. It was in October.

You were recovering at June's.

She tried to warn me tonight.

She said there are people out there who, if they saw it... We need to get the

pager. Why can't we just go in and get the pager? Because we can't. Why not?

It's because of the drugs in case they're searching people? Because one of

guys could just wait in here with the drugs. I'm not leaving him with all the

drugs. I'm not leaving him.

You don't trust your own partner?

Where is it?

What? The pager.

It's at the... No.

I'm not telling you.

Don't fucking around, kid. Where's the pager? Tell me what's going on. No,

where's the pager? Why can't you tell me? We can't. Why not? Because we can't.

Why? Because we're not partners.

What?

There is an expectation of discretion in our line of work. A kind of

monasticism.

At least the way I learned it.

Hey.

When you hire someone to do what we do...

You want someone who works alone.

No connections. No conflicting loyalties. The only way you can be

trust no one. But in that building back there is a very scary, very violent man.

It turns out we have both worked for him in the past.

Look, he saw us together.

He even suspected I knew what he knew. I knew what he knew.

And he would, without hesitation, have us killed immediately. Kill us himself.

So you're secret partners.

We're not secret partners.

Jesus Christ.

All right, here's what's going to happen.

We keep the drugs with us. And we all go in. No one leaves anyone's sight.

And you get that goddamn pager.

I'm going to pray to Christ that Dimitri doesn't see you and me together. Tell

him this was a dangerous plan.

Are you really not partners?

Why is it really cold?

What?

Why is it really cold?

Shut up!

I know what I want and I want it now.

I want you because I'm Mr. Bane.

Mr.

Bane.

We'll be right

back.

He left a pager. He left a pager for me, a green pager.

No, I wasn't doing anything.

What's going on here, Dimitri? Who the fuck is this asshole? Who the fuck are

you? Boys, boys, it's fine.

Everyone calm down.

Give me those.

Guns are only for the wedding party.

Everyone,

it's okay.

They are friends.

Yeah.

Come here, both of you. Come here.

Start the music, please.

Hey.

You crash my daughter's wedding and then you pull out guns, huh?

I came to pay my respects.

Wait, Dimitri, you know this asshole?

Believe it or not, you two offer not dissimilar services.

With all due respect, Dimitri, I highly doubt that.

And if I ever see you again, I'll go.

All right, all right, all right.

Hey, leave him. Stay.

Have a drink.

I got a job to do.

Oh, I see.

The professional.

The lone wolf.

Sorry for the disturbance.

Congratulations on your daughter's wedding.

Sweetie.

Hey, sweetie.

I'm here.

Yes.

Yeah.

Me?

Told you I wasn't gonna run.

No address yet.

Still got some time.

I wanna finish the job too.

Would you shut your mouth when you chew?

Hey, how do you even start doing something like this?

Like what, you know, what you guys do?

What is it you think we do?

We fix things, right?

Like, if something's messed up, or, like, if someone, like, messed it up,

like, make it okay, right?

More or less.

Um, thank you.

Too bad you both can't work together.

Bye.

What you do must be really lonely

I'm

gonna pee

So

the Grange has a mole with Dimitri or Diego is playing both sides somehow

Still on this conspiracy thing?

Diego's dead mama's bullshit story they're setting the kid up. But why and

did Grange get that shipment?

What does it matter?

You're not curious.

Doesn't change the job.

So you're not curious.

Would be a valuable piece of intel.

You have to figure out how to play it. We both can't know everything.

Okay, then one of us would make the drop. Then maybe we'd figure out what

fuck's going on. If we get the address.

If we get the address, one of us makes the drop.

He has to do it.

What? You... No, no, no. He could run. He could talk. There's too many

variables. He has to do it.

I'm not following him.

Sometimes the job takes care of itself.

Oh.

So the kid walks in and he gets shot.

Because you don't want to do it?

I don't do anything I don't have to.

Especially not that. Or you've lost your nerve.

I mean, this kid doesn't come home. People are going to look for him this

They find him. No, no, I get it.

You could just let him live.

Let's say you're wrong.

The kid makes a drop and he walks out alive.

Then... Then... You

know why they have multiple shooters on a firing squad?

They do.

So, I'm not asking. I don't need your help. I know you.

I'm offering.

Why don't you say I lost my edge?

To who?

I'm saying that I know what that feels.

Doing that, so maybe this way, but be a little

less.

Did it go off?

Oh, thank God.

Oh my God, I thought we were dead.

Oh my God, thank you, thank you.

Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Now what?

Now you go in.

You guys aren't coming?

You took the job, now you gotta finish it.

Thanks.

Are you guys gonna wait for me?

Could take care of itself

Fuck

it

Is that the Albanian?

What?

What happened?

So I'm walking up to the warehouse, and I'm thinking to myself, like, oh, this

is really scary, but I was thinking that I could do it, you know, because you

guys gave me confidence, and I thought that I could do it. Oh, my God, stop,

stop, stop.

It doesn't matter.

Now what?

Finish the job.

What?

You came here to drop off the drugs? Do it.

How am I supposed to... What, just put them anywhere?

What story are you trying to tell?

Uh... Well... Um, I'm pretty sure that this guy

over here was in charge of these guys.

I don't know, you know, anymore of these shit.

It's more realistic.

Let's go.

You want to be here when the sun comes up?

Um, can I get a ride home?

Take the subway.

Please?

We're all taking the subway.

You got blood on your sweater.

Fucker. I didn't care.

What are we gonna tell my dad?

Nothing unusual happened tonight.

And if either of you were to say anything differently, we're gonna flip a

to see who's gonna kill you and who's gonna kill your dad.

Nice to meet you guys. You never met us.

Right.

Hey, Dad, these guys need to talk to you about something.

So Frank is doing this movie, Manchurian Candidate. He's notorious for just

doing one take.

And the director, he says that was perfect.

Let's do one more.

Frank says, I'll tell you what.

If it's so perfect, why don't you print it twice?

You like it black?

Black's fine.

Yeah. Get back, come on. A little, come on.

So, what's this all about?

Want to grab some breakfast?

I know a place.

Brighton Beach, across from where they had the... Exactly. Love that place.

There was a very intimidating performance in there, by the way.

You like that thing with the flyer?

Might even steal it.

You like Bellini?

Love a Bellini.

Thank you.

Cracker in the goddamn drugs. Should have caught that immediately.

So did Lagrange even steal the drugs?

Or... So now you don't care who stole the shipment? Well, it matters, as long

the kid stays quiet.

You do realize one of us, most likely, eventually... Yeah,

probably. Cross that bridge.

If he can be killed.

Yeah.

Lucky fucker.

Well, that was a night.

Yeah.

So what did she say to you?

Get you to work with me, what'd she say?

She had a whole leverage.

She said that I didn't have a choice.

That?

Take a job, you give your word, and that word's the measure of the man.

Who called you?

What?

In the car to June's. Who called you? Who called you?

It was your guy.

My guy? The guy that Pam got your number from. Your guy.

So she must have called him. But then why call me?

Who called... You're saying the DA got your number?

No.

Yeah.

We had the same guy?

We both have the same guy.

Why does he care? It's just a clean -up job. He doesn't.

Unless. Unless you know about the drugs. Kid's dead. Can't make the drop. So he

calls us. One at a time. But nobody answers. So he sends someone else.

Chinatown. Sees the kids alive.

Hard to miss. Except. Lands back on track. We're on our way to Dimitri. Who

would have killed us. Except. We didn't fool Dimitri. He was tipped off.

Bodyguard didn't get the memo.

The Albanians don't make a move. The tracker's not even on. It's on the page.

It's all set up. It looks like the Granger's trying to move and stolen

The Albanians go to war with the. Rain should not be shut down.

I mean, I know what the A's tell me.

I know what the A's tell me. Great things to come. No wonder they wanted

cameras in the room. They wanted to know who knew.

The kid turns the ambush into a shootout.

We were supposed to take the fall.

You didn't think we'd send the kid in?

We were getting cleaned.

Not unless I hear a lot.

Nope.

They're really not taking any chances, are they?

Nope.

You know, I never did catch your name.

Tell you what, we survive this?

Deal.

Ready?

Yeah.

We can make it if we try.

Just the two of us.

Just the two of us.

Building castles in the sky.

Just the two of us.

You and I.

We look for love, no time for tears.

Wasted water's all that is.

And it don't make no flowers.

Good things might come to those who wait, but not for those who wait too

We gotta go for all we know.

Turn the two...

Diamond Lines

Day. It's not the game.

We shadow what.
