You ready, Joe?

We don't have to do this, Fontana, I mean.

I'm sorry I made a pass,
I know Emily's your girl.

I'm real glad you noticed.

You think you're real tough, don't you?

Bobby, please.

For the last time, please don't do this.

My honor's at stake.

I love you.

Joe knows that.

This isn't gonna prove anything.

Hey, Emily, don't worry,

I got it covered.

Oh, shit!

Sonny?

Got a light?

This way to Uptown.

This way to Uptown.

Hey, what's going on here, Jack?

Where am I?

What's your name, son?

Bobby, Bobby Fontana.

One of Rafferty's boys.

Please step aside.

Hey, watch the jacket, Bub.

You can kiss that cough goodbye in Uptown,
Mrs. Hardison.

I'll be so happy.

I've suffered such a long, long time.

Makes your heart feel good, doesn't it?

Hey, this Uptown sounds okay.

Maybe I ought to check this out.

This Midtown traffic's getting impossible.

Got to get the big chief

to put a cycle lane in here.

Lane?

You need a highway, fella.

Who taught you how to ride this thing?

You almost killed me.

You must be Bobby.

I'm Rafferty.

Hop on, we got some serious talking to do.

Dead, what do you mean dead?

Mister, you shouldn't be riding a bike.

You could really hurt somebody.

I haven't lost anybody yet.

Come on.

Now I suppose everyone
else in here is dead, too?

As doornails.

We're all spirits.

Spirits gotta eat, too.

Look, kid, hey,

what's the last thing you remember?

Race.

Yeah, I was in a race.

It was no contest.

The guy chickened out halfway.

I kept going.

You know, for the crowd.

Anyway, I was about to bail out when--

Here, try the linguine.

Pretty good.

What's wrong?

You don't like Italian?

Emily.

Oh, yeah.

She was a cute one, all right.

Tough break, kid.

I got to see her.

Sorry, that's impossible.

You don't understand, I need to see her!

There's something I gotta tell her!

Son, you've already told
her all you ever will.

So this is it?

Well, to tell you the truth,

I was expecting something different.

You know, like angels and harps
and that kind of stuff.

Oh no, that's in Uptown.

Oh, you don't mean I'm--

No no no, this is Midtown.

Sort of a way-station, just temporary.

So I'll be moving on?

It's not that easy, Bob.

The big chief doesn't think
you're quite ready yet.

Which is why he sent me down here.

What's the matter,
he doesn't like my clothes?

Let's just say you have
a few strikes against you

and until you square
yourself to his satisfaction,

you're sort of stuck here.

So what does he want me to do?

Carry out an assignment.

Something especially suited to your

abilities.

Okay, I'm game.

When do we start?

I was coming to that.

You're gonna have to ride the train

until we find an assignment for you.

What?

It's the only way we can keep Midtown

from getting overcrowded.

Where does it go?

Around.

Well, how long I gotta stay on this thing?

It could be a while.

Get me out of here!

Open the door!

There's a fucking viking in here!

Ah Lenny, what are you doing?

How many times do I have to tell you?

First the lettuce, and then the tomato,

and then the onion, huh.

What do I gotta do, write it down for you?

I'm sorry, I forgot--

Look, no sorries, huh?

Just get it right!

I need six cheeseburgers

and seven Cokes, pronto.

Two with no tomato, one without onion,

two with no mustard, and one with no mayo.

And the no-onion wants no ketchup.

Oh, and a large fry with extra
salt, got it?

I hope so.

Do you want some help?

Melissa, I need you out front.

All right.
Let me just get this takeout order.

Thanks for the offer.

Nevermind, get out of here.

Please, get out of here.

Get out of here.

Go out there and help her.

I'll handle this.

And try not to screw it up.

I'm not doing so good, am I?

You're doing fine.

I don't think Max likes me too much.

Max doesn't like anybody.

I don't know why you waste your time.

She doesn't know you exist.

Yeah, but someday she will.

Yo, Barnes.

Who let a wuss like you in here?

I work here.

Christ, what a joke.

Max must be desperate, huh?

Yo Barnes, man,
I didn't give you permission

to look at Sharon.

All right, man,
you you gonna take our order

or you just gonna stand
there looking stupid?

What would you like?

I thought you said

this was gonna be a smooth trip.

It's those damn fluorocarbons.

They've been kicking
hell out of the ozone.

These people, they don't give a damn

about their environment.

Nuclear blast!

Yeah, I'm glowing righteous.

End is near, dude.

Death rays!

Yeah, but I, like, been totally

molded by black mold.

There have been some changes
since your day.

No shit!

Now let me tell you something, man.

This shit is so fine, it's gonna

turn your head inside out,
upside down, in every which way.

It's going to totally destroy your mind.

Where are we, Mars?

No, Fort Lauderdale.

Whatever happened to Elvis?

He's Uptown.

I'm not so sure about these changes.

Well, some I can live with.

Hey, nobody can see us, right?

Not unless you want them to.

However, the rule is you reveal yourself

only to your assignment and no one else.

Will you give me a break?

I've been on a subway for a long,
long time.

Try a cold shower, it still works.

Watch it, jerk!

Head him coming.

You asshole.

What a spazola!

So, who's it gonna be?

Which one of these lucky
kids is my assignment?

The spazola.

I don't ever, ever, want to see your face

around here again!

You understand that?

Not unless you're a paying customer!

You know Max really
doesn't mean that, Lenny.

Now, go on, beat it, schmuck!

Maybe he does!

See you, Melissa.

See you later!

- Wiener, wiener!
- See you, Barnes!

Alas, that love,
whose view is muffled still

should, without eyes, see pathways to his

where shall we dine?

Here's much to do with hate

but more with love.

You gotta watch that first step, kid.

It's a nasty one.

Sorry about that.

It's okay.

I guess I owe you my life.

Forget it.

All in the line of duty.

But, if you hadn't been here, I would--

Yep.

You'd be a pile of hamburger.

How did you do that?

I'll be seeing you.

Where are you going?

Got a train to catch.

You from out of town?

Yeah, you could say that.

Look, I want to thank you.

Sure thing.

Wait, I don't even know your name.

Going somewhere?

Yeah, Uptown.

No, you're not.

Well, I did my job, right?

Wrong.

What, what do you mean wrong?

Saved his life, didn't I?

What else am I supposed to do?

Become his friend.

You gotta be kidding me.

He needs somebody to talk to.

Well, buy him a German shepherd.

He thinks that he's worthless.

Well, he might be on to something.

It's your job to show him he's not.

How am I supposed to do that?

That is up to you.

I've been stuck on a subway
all these years for this?

Why couldn't you send me down here

to rescue some orphans or something?

Rafferty, it ain't gonna work.

I mean, I got nothing
in common with this kid.

He's a complete square!

He even puked on me!

He is your assignment.

What if I don't take it?

You want to go Uptown, don't you?

You're on your own, kid.

But soft!

What light through yonder window breaks?

It is the east, and Juliet is the sun!

Arise, fair sun and kill the envious moon

who is already sick and pale with grief

that thou,
her maid art far more fair than she.

That thou art far more fair than she.

What does Shakespeare mean

by these words that all but sing
with lyric beauty?

Mr. Gallo?

Beats the hell out of me.

Good one, Gallo.

Lenny.

It means that,

that as beautiful as the moon is,

it pales beside the beauty
of his lady love.

- Barnes.
- Exactly.

Smart kid.

All right, Gallo!

But still a spaz.

- Gag me.
- Nerd.

Wedding cake at lunch.

Maybe it was Debbie and Professor Walker.

Hey kid, knock it off!

Rafferty?

Where are you?

97 FM.

I'm keeping my eye on you, understand?

Hey, will you cut me some slack?

No fooling around, understand?

Stick to your assignment.

That's what I've been doing, Rafferty.

You can count on me.

Rafferty.

Rafferty?

Lenny.

Lenny, guess what Mr. Finley
told me after class?

Oh, hi, Melissa.

He said that you analyze literature

better than anyone he's ever had ever.

Isn't that exciting?

Yeah, I guess.

He's saying you're really special.

Yeah, right, I'm so special,

how come everyone thinks I'm a jerk?

Nobody thinks that.

Oh, come on, Melissa.

Nobody cares about that stuff.

I do.

Yeah, but you're different.

Look, I have to go.

Let's get together later.

Maybe we can study or something?

Yeah, okay.

Hi, Sharon.

What do you want, douchebag?

Nothing.

Then what are you doing here?

I came to apologize to Sharon

about last night.

Okay, she heard you, now move it.

You hard of hearing, peckerhead?

Huh, I said, split.

Watch this.

I hope you're not thinking

of taking another dive.

'Cause I ain't gonna be down there

to catch you this time.

Where did you come from?

Let's just say I dropped in.

Sorry I was in such a hurry this morning.

My name's Bobby.

Lenny.

Nice view you got here, Len.

Yeah, it's okay.

Must be good for thinking.

Yeah.

Look, Len, let's cut the shit.

You need a lot of help,
and that's why I'm here.

I've been watching you.

I know how you feel about that chick,
Sharon.

You do?

Yeah.

And I could fix it so
she'd go out with you.

I might even fix it so she'd fall for you.

You could do that?

Yep!

I can do a lot of stuff.

Wait a minute.

Who are you?

This morning when I caught you,

how do you think I did that?

I don't know.

Well, I can do that because,

I am not of this Earth.

Not of this Earth?

Yeah.

You know, dead.

Uh, I have to be going now.

Wait, I'm not finished.

I've got this play to read,
and my brothers,

I have to make them dinner.

Look, kid. This is no bullshit.

It was nice seeing you again.

I'll prove it.

This jacket is real special to me, kid.

Now, don't take your eye off of it.

'Cause I'm going to make
it fly like an eagle.

Great trick.

Now I remember. Rafferty said you have

to do something with your hands.

See that tree?

I'm gonna make it disappear.

Rafferty said there was a knack to it.

Well, maybe you should try
something a little different.

Something easier.

Like, you know, make it rain,
or turn yourself into a duck.

Don't piss me off, kid.

What are you doing?

I've been too ambitious.

That's my term paper.

What are you doing?

Trust me.

Check it out.

Got any tape?

That's it!

I'm going!

Wait.

I just had an idea.

I should've thought of this before.

The next car that comes down this road

is going to go right through me.

Hey, you don't have to do this.

I believe you.

I said I believe you.

Get out of the way!

I may be dead, but I ain't crazy.

Damn, I don't know what's wrong.

I mean, Rafferty told me
I had all these powers.

Maybe you just need more practice.

Hey, let me get Rafferty down here.

He'll explain everything.

No, that's okay.

I mean, I'd love to meet the guy and all,

but like I said,
I've got a lot of work to do.

I'll tell you what, when he gets in town,

give me a call.

I'm in the phone book,
and we'll all go out

for pizza or something, all right?

Look, kid, now you're really

starting to piss me off.

You think I want to be doing this?

No way!

But I want to get to Uptown, see?

And the only way I can do that is

by following the rules!

So that's why I'm here!

Personally,
I think I'm wasting my time with you!

Personally,
I think the whole thing's hopeless!

What the?

But why me?

Like I said, I was assigned to you.

But I'm not in any real trouble.

From what I've seen,
I'd say you're in serious trouble.

How come I didn't see you in school today?

I didn't want you to.

Oh, so you can appear
and disappear just like that.

Yeah, I'm only allowed
to do that with you.

Must be Japanese.

The way I see it,

you got one major problem: no confidence.

You got no confidence
because you got no style.

But we're gonna change all that.

How?

Same way we're gonna get

that cute little blonde to notice you.

I'm gonna give you a new image.

I'm gonna give you flash.

I'm not sure I like this.

Why not?

It's not me.

You want to be you?

Okay.

I like it, I like it!

I like it.

Honestly, I really like it.

Heh!

Pretty cool, huh, kid?

Yeah, I'll be the only kid in school

with a bulletproof head.

What's wrong with my bike?

You can't pick up chicks
on a bicycle, kid.

How you gonna make out at a drive-in?

Well, I've never been to a drive-in.

Ain't she a beauty?

She looks so nice to me, hey

What do you think?

Will she run?

When you passed away, it couldn't

have been in a car accident, could it?

Yeah, how did you guess?

Just a hunch.

Must be Japanese.

School is in session.

Lesson Number One.

You own the joint.

When you walk into a room,
you want all eyes on you.

You want everybody in that room thinking,

"Hey, who is that kid?"

Second rule.

You always look like you
got everything covered.

Chicks like to think
you got all the answers.

When exactly was it that you passed away?

Why?

Well, that's just, sort of,

old-fashioned thinking nowadays.

Now, it worked for me,
it's gonna work for you.

I guarantee it.

Now watch.

Hey, good-looking.

You're too fine to be
sitting here all alone.

See, it's all in the moves.

So what do you say?

I got it covered?

Hey, good-looking.

You're too fine to be
sitting here all alone.

She's not, asshole!

You're doing great, kid!

Let me know when I'm doing bad.

You gotta expect a little disappointment.

Goes with the territory.

So do my appendix.

Hey, look.

This is it, kid.

I know you can handle this.

Hi, there.

Hey, good-looking.

My name is, Len, ah!

Man, I have never seen a chick

that ferocious in all my life.

I don't think this is gonna work.

What kind of talk is that?

It's called intelligence.

Come on, kid, you gotta give it a chance.

I've been taking you
to the wrong spots, kid.

Now this is the kind of place

where I used to hang out.

Chicks in here know
how to treat a man right.

You go ahead.

I'll be there in a minute.

Okay, but don't wait too long.

You're on my turf now.

A lot of changes.

Something the matter?

Wrong turf.

Maybe we ought to call it a night.

Hey, this is some bitching car!

We could sure use a ride to the boulevard.

Six, hold on.

Four, three, now back in three-four time

A lot of changes.

Did you see the way she was hanging on me?

I mean, she was all over me.

Was I looking good or what?

You did just fine, kid.

In fact, there were moments tonight,

when you almost reminded me of myself.

Really?

Yeah, you definitely got potential.

All right!

Of course, you got a ways to go.

Rome wasn't built in a day,

and make no mistake, you definitely were

in worse shape than Rome.

This cigarette tastes funny.

Where did you get that?

Off some kid at Max's.

Here, I think you're doing it wrong.

Damn, what are you trying to do,
kill yourself?

That's the way you're supposed to do it.

What is this stuff?

It's called grass.

I'm smoking somebody's lawn?

No, come on, just take a hit.

I think I'll stick to Camels.

What's this stuff supposed to do, anyway?

Must be strong stuff.

What happened?

It's called getting high.

Lenny, is everything okay?

Yeah, Mom, just laughing at a book.

Well, if it's so funny,

let me read it when you finish.

Emily.

Honey, have you seen my glasses?

Yeah, they're on the nightstand.

Oh, no.

I'm gonna be sick!

Bobby!

Rafferty, are you there?

Rafferty!

Honey!

Where you going?

What's going on here?

What happened to you?

Hey, Dad, there's a strange smell

coming from Lenny's room.

If you know what we mean.

Hey, back to bed, you two.

- Mustard?
- I love mustard.

You know, you're jamming up

all the frequencies there, what's up?

I just saw Emily.

Why didn't you tell me?

We figured it would be better
you found out for yourself.

Yeah, I found out.

She's married to Joe Barnes.

That meathead's the kid's father.

Look, I don't know
whose idea of a joke this,

but I want out.

What about Lenny?

Find somebody else to be his friend.

That's the way I feel.

That's the way I feel!

What, this is some kind of test, isn't it?

You could say that.

I should've known.

You guys are famous for stuff like this!

We knew it would be difficult for you.

Difficult!

I thought I was over her!

Let me talk to the big chief.

I'll see if I can get
you another assignment.

You do that.

Well.

I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Now, let me get this right.

He gave you the car
and the clothes just like that?

For free?

Yes.

Huh, what is this guy,
some kind of Good Samaritan?

One question.

Are you dealing drugs?

Oh Joe, don't be ridiculous.

Well, you explain it then,

because I sure don't know what's going on.

Let me handle it, dear.

Be my guest.

This friend of yours.

Bobby.

Bobby, do you know him from school?

Not exactly.

Does he have a last name?

I can't remember it.

Do you know where his family lives?

I don't know.

Are you in some kind of trouble?

No, Mom.

You can tell me.

I thought we didn't keep
things from each other.

Okay.

We'll talk about it tomorrow.

Don't worry about it, Mom, really.

I got it covered.

What?

I got it covered.

Something wrong, Mom?

No.

Goodnight.

Bobby?

Bobby?

All right!

Oh, some hot wheels there, big brother.

Where did you get 'em?

From a friend.

What'll it do?

Whatever I make it do.

A hundred?

Hey, Barnes.

Where'd a jerk like you
get a machine like that?

Yeah, that's too much car
for a wuss like you, Lenny.

Up yours, liver lips!

Hey, watch it, you squirrelly little shit.

Make 'em eat dust, Lenny.

Hey, this is really nice, man.

Tell me, is this a six cylinder or a V8?

Both.

So, Barnes, where'd you steal this thing?

Built it myself.

Yeah, bullshit.

It's easy, Gallo.

I just used something you haven't got.

Brains.

Oh Lenny, what's happening?

Wasn't that Barnes?

Lenny?

You look so different.

Hey, do you like it?

I guess.

Where'd you get the clothes?

What'd you do to your hair?

Well, I felt it was time for a change.

- Hey, Lenny.
- Where were you yesterday?

What do you mean?

We were supposed to study
together, remember?

Oh yeah, yeah, I had stuff to do.

You know, I waited over an hour for you.

Like I said, I was busy.

- Hey, Lenny.
- Yo.

Lenny, what's come over you?

Wait, I want to talk to you.

Hi, Lenny.

Hi Sharon.

Walk me to class?

We're already here.

That's all right.

Where's Sharon?

I think she went to class.

After school.

Never fails.

Every one of you, sooner or later,

wanders back to the scene of his demise.

Nostalgia, I suppose.

Yeah.

Well, you're in luck, kid.

I think I got you another assignment.

Changed my mind.

Had to pull a few strings.

What?

I'm gonna stick this one out.

Oh, I thought--

I been doing some thinking.

I gotta lot of time invested in this kid.

I figure I might as well stick it out.

Anyway, the kid's not all that bad.

I'm even starting to like him a little.

Uh-huh, what about Emily?

I can handle that.

Ah, that's the spirit, kid.

I'm gonna tell you, this is gonna

save us both a whole lot of grief.

Well, wish me luck.

I'm on my way to a place called Newark.

And if you think our subways are bad.

Bobby?

Lenny, the rumor's all over school

that you're gonna fight Fred Gallo.

Is it true?

What are you gonna do?

Probably die.

Well, he looks pretty good.

Yeah, yeah right there.

Hey, Jim, check it out.

Where is he?

I got business with you, Barnes.

Oh, you need some help tutoring?

I'm gonna kick your ass.

I don't like the way that sounds.

Yeah?

You're not gonna like the way
that feels either.

- All right!
- All right!

Thanks, Will.

All right, Barnes!

You're dead meat, Barnes!

What the hell?

Come one, let loose on him!

- What happened?
- All right, Barnes!

Hey, kid.

Thought you could use a little help.

Lenny.

I sure can use a ride home.

Got your comb?

Spare change?

Let me see your socks.

You still haven't told me

where you were this afternoon.

I had some angel business to take care of.

Well, you missed it.

I kicked Gallo's ass
all over the schoolyard.

You got lucky, if I hadn't've shown up--

Hey, I could have handled Mclntyre, too.

Yeah, back to business.

What are you gonna tell her first?

Hey, you don't have to coach me,

I know what I'm doing.

Hey, I'm still the teacher here.

Now, remember, take it slow and easy.

A girl like this you just can't rush.

Mm-hm, right.

She needs special handling, you know?

I mean, take her somewhere real nice.

Appeal to her vanity.

I mean, you know, tell her, tell her,

how good her hair looks.

Tell her how pretty her dress is.

Tell her how nice her perfume smells.

Oh, and remember, romance, romance.

Hi, Lenny, how do I look?

Holy shit!

Oh, you look great.

I mean, your hair, it's so great.

And your dress.

It's not a dress, but it's great, too.

Lenny.

My parents want me home by 10:00.

So let's skip the burgers
and just get it on, okay?

A lot of changes

You did it okay for a first-timer.

What do you mean?

Don't be embarrassed.

I made it with a lot of first-timers.

Yuck!

Pick me up for school tomorrow?

Sure.

Listen, kid, I'm glad you scored.

But I'm not sure this
is the right chick for you.

Awful cold around the heart.

Oh come on, don't bring me down.

Hey, you're right.

Let's go celebrate!

What's wrong with you?

Man, you look terrible.

They can't hear me.

Right, right!

I should've stopped you
after that second beer.

Hey, I'm in control.

Definitely in control.

You're up and you're cool.

Hi, Dad!

You are grounded, you understand?

When you sober up, I want some answers.

Come on, Joe, have a heart!

The kid just got laid!

What's happening?

Our son is drunk.

Drunk?

Are you sure?

He barely made it up the stairs.

I see winter coming

I mean, it has to happen.

That's right.

That winter

Everyone.

Yeah, Joanne's having a party tonight.

It's gonna be a blast.

Are you going, Lenny?

Yeah, I'll be there.

Will you dance with me?

If you deserve it.

Look at that son of a bitch.

He's hanging all over Sharon.

I should go over there and break his face.

Move it, Gallo!

Hey, watch it, all right.

Get lost.

It's like no one respects us anymore,

Yeah, they would if I kicked
his ass right now.

Hey, hey, fighting ain't gonna do it, man.

You need to do something really big.

Something special.

Okay, catch you later.

Those guys are not done with you, yet.

So watch yourself.

Hey, don't worry about it,
I got it covered.

George Burns is offering 20--

How did you ever do it, Joe?

What did Emily see in you?

And what's the catch?

You are the new novelty act.

Novelty act?

What was it, Joe?

Your good looks?

Your fine physique?

Your charming ways?

Think about me.

Why did you marry him, Emily?

You could've done so much better.

God, you're beautiful.

I don't believe what I'm seeing.

Sorry, Mom, but I'm going.

You are going right
back up into the house.

No way.

There's people expecting
to see me tonight.

Well, they're gonna have to wait,

'cause you're going upstairs
till I get some answers.

Who's gonna make me?

Lenny!

Kid, that's no way to talk to your mom.

What is this?

Everyone's on my case.

What is with this attitude?

Are you coming or not?

You're getting to be a real jerk.

And you're getting to be a real drag.

Lenny!

Just back off, all right?

Come back here!

You look great.

Let's go to Max's first.

We can go to the party later.

Sure, I wouldn't mind seeing
my good friend Max again.

Hi, Lenny.

Who's that?

No one.

Hey, watch it!

What's with you?

What do you care?

Jesus!

What a toad.

Hey, she's all right.

She's a loser, Lenny.

Everybody knows that.

I'll be right back.

Come on, we're leaving.

We haven't eaten.

We'll get something later, some on.

Emily.

Emily.

Bobby?

It's me, it's really me, I had to see you.

But how?

It's a long story.

I waited so long to hold you.

If it hadn't been for Joe,
I might not have made it.

He helped me through some pretty
rough times.

Yeah, I'll bet he did.

He's a good husband, Bobby.

Really, he is.

He loves me and the kids.

He tries real hard.

Do you love him?

Yes, I do.

Same way you loved me?

I don't know how much
time I have left, Emily.

I'd like this night to be special.

This is my old street.

Hey, remember.

When I used to come pick you up,

you used to wait under that tree?

I had to park all the way down the block

so your old man wouldn't hear me drive up.

I'd always come running out to meet you

and you'd always laugh at me and hug me.

God, you made me feel good.

Somehow just being with you always

seemed to make everything all right.

Where are we?

Our high school gym.

Remember those dances I thought

I was too cool to take you to?

All these years.

I missed you so much.

I'm not the same person I was then.

Inside you are.

We spent our last night together
here, remember?

Yeah, I remember.

Bobby, what do you think of Lenny?

He's okay.

No, he's better than okay.

As a matter of fact, we were getting

to be pretty good friends,
till he got so damn cocky.

Does that surprise you?

Yeah, I mean, he even wised off to me.

I mean, to me!

You know, over the years,

he's reminded me a lot of you.

But now, more than ever.

Emily, what?

Lenny is your son.

You know, I wished for so
long that you could see him.

And now you have.

Lenny, my son?

I never told him about you, Bobby.

What about Joe?

He knew.

But he still wanted to marry me.

I guess I was wrong about Joe.

I guess I was wrong about a lot of things.

Emily, there's something I never told you.

Something I've been wanting
to tell you for a long time.

I love you.

I always have.

And I always will.

I have to go now, Emily.

Don't worry about Lenny.

I'll take care of everything.

Will I see you again, Bobby?

I'll always be with you.

He's a good kid.

Thanks, Joe.

Come on, come on, let's go.

Hey, everybody, I got a son!

- That's great.
- Congratulations!

- Way to go.
- Thank you.

All right!

Way to go.

Hey, all right!

Ah, come on, Rafferty,
aren't you gonna congratulate me?

I got a kid!

Of course,
you probably knew that all along.

Come on, Rafferty, all I did

was step over the bounds a little.

Don't you understand, kid?

You may appear to no
one but your assignment.

You broke the rules.

They don't like that around here.

Well, whatever happens, it was worth it.

I mean, to see Emily again,

to touch her face,
to find out about Lenny.

Hey, that'll get me through an eternity.

Mm, I need another drink.

Need a lift?

No.

Melissa, wait!

Wait!

What do you want?

Well, I thought maybe we could talk.

Why don't you talk to Sharon?

Well, she's not much for talking.

Can I walk you home?

Suit yourself.

What's the matter?

You don't like me anymore?

You used to be somebody I cared about.

Now you're acting
like someone I never knew.

Someone I don't really want to know.

Melissa!

Pull in over there.

Come on out.

Come on, shorty, come over here.

Just leave the car there.

Come on.

You know what a gut race is, Barnes?

Separates guys like me
from chicken shits like you.

We got the cars and everything
set up at the quarry.

All you have to do is show up.

Now, just between you and me,

I don't think you will.

But, then again, I happen to think

there's nothing but a candyass

underneath all those
fancy clothes of yours.

Come on, let's go.

Yeah, that's right, Barnes, go home.

That's where you belong.

- That's it.
- Right.

Okay, let's do it.

He's gonna do it!

- Gallo, okay!
- All right!

- Hey, all right, nice.
- All right, Gallo, huh?

- Come on, Gallo.
- What do you want?

You're on.

Hey, let's go!

- All right!
- All right.

Lenny, just let it go.

Hey, hop in.

I was going to tell you.

What does it mean?

Gallo challenged him to a race.

He accepted.

If it's any consolation,

he's on the Uptown passenger list.

Oh no!

Rafferty, you gotta let me go back.

There's nothing you can do.

You don't understand.

My son needs me, Rafferty!

Bobby, I know how you feel,
but it was meant to be.

You can't alter destiny.

Destiny, nothing!

If it wasn't for me,
he wouldn't be in this jam.

I got him into this fix!

You gotta let me get him out of it!

The kid hasn't had a life yet, Rafferty.

I didn't know what that meant.

But last night I found out what I lost.

I don't want that to happen to Lenny.

I want him to have a chance to grow old,

to have a family.

A wife, kids, whatever he wants.

All the things I missed out on.

Bobby, the consequences.

I don't care about the consequences!

I'll do anything!

Talk to the higher-ups.

Talk to whoever you have to.

Tell them I'll do anything, anything.

Rafferty!

Tell them I'd give up my soul.

You can back out anytime, Barnes.

Lenny, don't do this, please.

I've been challenged.

My honor's at stake.

Your honor's going to get you killed.

Don't worry about it.

I've got it covered.

Charlie!

Good luck, Fred.

Start them.

Yeah!

All right!

Lenny!

No!

Shit, shit!

You didn't think I'd let you down now,
did you?

Oh, shit!

Lenny!

Oh, no!

Oh, my God!

Oh, it's cursed.

No way.

I'm sorry.

I don't wanna.

Somebody try to help him!

Hey, look!

Will you get your foot out of my face?

Oh, my God!

Oh, God, Lenny!

That was some race.

It was the best.

It was also the last.

You saved my life, again.

I'm your guardian angel.

That's my job.

I see you're with another girl.

Yeah, she's really special.

I'd like you to meet her.

Maybe some other time.

Why not now?

See that guy down there?

I gotta take a ride with him.

You're gonna be on your own again.

We were just getting to be friends.

You're my best friend.

Yeah.

No matter where I go,

we'll always be best friends.

You really gotta go?

Goodbye, kid.

Goodbye.

You take care of yourself.

You, too.

Heck of a kid, ain't he, Rafferty?

Yeah, yeah, he's going to be all right.

This is hard to say, Rafferty.

But I'm gonna miss you.

Tell me, is it as bad as I think it
is, down there?

Worse.

Thanks.

Don't look so glum, Bobby.

You're not going down there.

You're on your way Uptown.

Just earned your ticket.

What, could you run that by me again?

When you sacrificed yourself for Lenny,

you showed us you learned how to love,

how to value someone more than yourself.

That's how you get a ticket Uptown.

What, me, going Uptown?

Yep.

I'll be damned!

Couldn't you put that another way?

Hang on, kid!

What are you waving at?

Someone very special.
