"Even before I went to the cabstand for an after-school job  I knew I wanted to be a part of them." "It was there that I knew I belonged." "To me, it meant being somebody  in a neighborhood full of nobodies." "They weren't like anybody else." "They did whatever they wanted." "They parked in front of hydrants and never got a ticket." "When they played cards all night  nobody ever called the cops." "[Big band tune continues] "Must I forever be a beggar" ""Whose golden dreams will not come true"" "TUDDY:" "Tony Stacks." "How are you?" "HENRY:" "Tuddy Cicero." "TONY:" "Could this be the Canarsie Kid?" "HENRY:" "Tuddy." "Tuddy ran the cabstand and the Bella Vista Pizzeria  and other places for his brother, Paul, who was the boss of the neighborhood." "[Chattering and chuckling]" "Paulie might have moved slow  but it was only because Paulie didn't have to move for anybody." "TONY:" "It's your fault." "RONNIE:" "You started it!" "TONY:" "I started it?" "It's your fault." "HENRY:" "At first my parents loved that I found a job  across the street from the house." "My father, who was Irish, was sent to work at the age of 11."

"HENRY:" "My mother was happy after she found out the Ciceros  came from the same part of Sicily as she did." "To my mother  that was the answer to all her prayers." "I was the luckiest kid in the world." "I could go anywhere, do anything." "I knew everybody, and everybody knew me." "Wiseguys would pull up and Tuddy would let me park their Cadillacs." "Here I am, this little kid, I can't even see over the steering wheel  and I'm parking Cadillacs." "But, it wasn't too long  before my parents changed their minds about my job at the cabstand." "For them, it was supposed to be a part-time job." "But for me  it was definitely full time." "That's all I wanted to do." "People like my father could never understand, but I was a part of something." "I belonged." "I was treated like a grown-up." "TUDDY:" "Tell him 519." "HENRY:" "Every day I was learning to score." "A dollar here, a dollar there." "I was living in a fantasy." "Did you have a good day at school?" "HENRY:" "My father was always pissed off." "Pissed that he made such lousy money, that my brother Michael  was in a wheelchair." "He was pissed that there were seven of us living in such a tiny house." "Tell me about this."

"TUDDY:" "Another letter from school goes to that kid's house in the oven you'll go, head first." "HENRY:" "That was it." "No more letters from truant officers." "No letters from school." "In fact, no more letters from anybody." "After a few weeks, my mother went to the post office to complain." "How could I go to school after that  and pledge allegiance and sit through good government bullshit?" "[Rain pelting]" "HENRY:" "Paulie hated phones." "He wouldn't have one in his house."

"TUDDY:" "Got a nickel?" "Get him on the phone." "HENRY:" "There were guys, that's all they did all day, was take care of Paulie's calls." "[Scattered conversation, pop tune plays in background]" "For a guy who moved all day long  Paulie didn't talk to six people." "With union problems  or a beef in the numbers  only the top guys spoke with Paulie about the problem." "Everything was one-on-one." "Paulie hated conferences." "He didn't want anybody hearing what he said  or anyone listening to what he was being told." "Hundreds of guys depended on him, and he got a piece of everything they made." "It was a tribute, like in the old country, except they were doing it in America." "All they got from Paulie was protection from the guys trying to rip them off." "That's what it's all about." "That's what the FBI could never understand." "What Paulie and the Organization does  is protect people who can't go to the cops." "That's it." "They're like the police department for wiseguys." "[Smashing, glass shattering]" "HENRY:" "People looked at me differently, and they knew I was with somebody." "I didn't have to wait in line at the bakery on Sunday morning for fresh bread." "The owner knew who I was with, and no matter how many people were waiting  I was taken care of first." "Our neighbors stopped parking in our driveway, even though we had no car." "HENRY:" "At 13  I was making more money than most of the grown-ups in the neighborhood." "I had it all." "[Roaring explosion]" "HENRY:" "One day..."

"You look like a gangster." "[Yells] They shot me." "Help!" "TUDDY:" "Henry, shut the door." "HENRY:" "That was the first time I had ever seen anyone shot." "Can't have that in here." "Jesus Christ!" "TUDDY:" "I can't have that in this joint." "HENRY:" "I remember feeling bad about the guy, but also  feeling maybe Tuddy was right." "I knew Paulie didn't want anyone dying in the building." "You're a real jerk." "You wasted eight fucking aprons on this guy." "What's wrong with you?" "I got to toughen this kid up." "[Upbeat pop tune plays, background]" "HENRY:" "It was a glorious time." "And wiseguys were all over the place." "It was before Apalachin and before Crazy Joe  decided to take on a boss and start a war." "It was when I met the world." "And it was when I first met Jimmy Conway." "He couldn't have been more than 28 or 29 at the time, but he was already a legend." "He'd walk in the door and everybody who worked the room just went wild." "He'd give a doorman $100 just for opening the door." "He'd give hundreds to the dealers and the guys who ran the games." "The bartender got $100 just for keeping the ice cubes cold." "JIMMY:" "The Irishman is here to take you Guineas' money." "PAUL:" "Want a drink?" "JIMMY:" "Give me a Seven and Seven." "PAUL:" "I'd like you to meet the kid Henry." "How you doin'?" "Thank you." "Keep them coming." "HENRY:" "Jimmy was one of the most feared guys in the city." "He was first locked up at 11, and doing hits for mob bosses at 16." "Hits never bothered Jimmy." "It was business." "But what Jimmy really loved to do..." "what he really loved to do was steal." "He actually enjoyed it." "Jimmy was the kind of guy who rooted for the bad guys in movies." "Give me your wallet." "You might know who we are, but we know who you are." "HENRY:" "He was one of the city's biggest hijackers  of booze, cigarettes, razor blades, shrimp and lobsters." "Shrimp and lobsters were best." "They went fast." "Almost all of them were gimmies." "They just gave it up, no problem." "They called him Jimmy the Gent." "JIMMY:" "Help the lady." "HENRY:" "Drivers loved him." "They used to tip him off  about the really good loads." "Of course, everybody got a piece." "SCHOOL GUARD:" "Thanks, I'll be back for the rest later." "Henry, come here." "Say hello to Tommy." "You're gonna be working together, okay?" "Help him." "Go ahead." "Jimmy, you got anything good?" "HENRY:" "When the cops assigned a whole army to stop Jimmy, what did he do?" "He made them partners." "I'd complain, but who'd listen?" "HENRY:" "What do you need?" "CIGARETTE BUYER 1:" "Two Luckys." "TOMMY:" "Here you go, Henry." "HENRY:" "Thanks a lot." "HENRY:" "What do you need?" "CIGARETTE BUYER 2:" "One Pall Mall."

" I thought you'd be mad." "I'm not mad, I'm proud of you." "You took your first pinch like a man and learned the two greatest things in life." "What?" "JIMMY:" "Look at me."

"See, we grew up near the airport." "It belonged to Paulie." "We had friends and relatives who worked all over it." "They would tip us off about what was coming in and moving out." "If any truckers or airlines gave us trouble  Paulie's union people scared them with a strike." "It was beautiful." "It was a bigger moneymaker than numbers and Jimmy was in charge." "Whenever we needed money, we'd rob the airport." "To us, it was better than Citibank." "TRUCK DRIVER:" "You got a phone?" "Come on!" "Two niggers just stole my truck."

"We'll hang them in the freezer with the meat." "HENRY:" "For us, to live any other way was nuts." "To us, those goody-good people who worked shitty jobs for bum paychecks  and took the subway to work and worried about bills, were dead." "They were suckers." "They had no balls." "If we wanted something, we just took it." "If anyone complained twice, they got hit so bad they never complained again." "It was all just routine." "You didn't even think about it." "TOMMY:" "Frankie, what the fuck does 520 have to do with 469?" "520 ain't even close to 469." "What's that got to do with anything?" "Piece of cake." "Don't worry about the alarms." "I just got to get a key." "HENRY:" "No problems?" "FRENCHY:" "I'll take care of it." " Tell him what you were telling me." " Too good to be true." "Big score coming from Air France."

"If I'm right, there could be half a mil coming in, all cash." "The best time is probably over a weekend." "So maybe Saturday night." "There's a Jewish holiday Monday." "They won't find out until Tuesday." "Beautiful." "What about the security?" "Security?" "You're looking at it." "It's a joke." "I'm the midnight-to-eight man."

"KAREN:" "Before it was time to go, he was pushing me into the car  then pulling me out." "It was ridiculous." "Diane and Tommy made us promise to meet them again on Friday." "We agreed." "But when Friday came around, Henry stood me up." "I feel terrible." "I don't know where he is." "He really liked you." "All he did was talk about her." "KAREN:" "We were a trio instead of a double date." "He should have called." "I hope it's nothing serious." "KAREN:" "But I made Tommy take me looking for him."

"[Wiseguys laugh]" "I forgot." "I thought it was next week." "It was this Friday and you agreed, so you're a liar!" "We can talk about this." "Talk to you after what you just did to me?"

"To become a member of a crew you must be 100 percent Italian  so they can trace your relatives back to the old country." "It's the highest honor they can give you." "It means you belong to a family and a crew." "It means nobody can fuck around with you." "Also, you can fuck around with anybody, as long as they aren't also a member." "It's like a license to steal." "A license to do anything." "TOMMY:" "How many years since you were made?" "VINNIE:" "I'm an old-timer." "Thirty years ago." "TOMMY:" "Brings back a lot of memories." "Pike's Peak was a pimple then, wasn't it?" "HENRY:" "As far as Jimmy was concerned, with Tommy being made  it was like we were all being made." "We would now have one of our own as a member." "[Gunshot]" "JIMMY:" "Who's this?" "VINNIE:" "This is Vinnie." "JIMMY:" "What happened?" "Did we get straightened out?" "VINNIE:" "We had a problem." "We tried to do everything we could." "You know what I mean." "He's gone, and we couldn't do nothing about it." "JIMMY:" "What do you mean?" "VINNIE:" "He's gone." "He's gone." "That's it." "[Banging]" "I knew it!" "I can't fucking believe it." "JIMMY:" "They fucking whacked him." "HENRY:" "Fuck." "[Banging]" "[Jimmy sobs]" "Are you all right?" "HENRY:" "It was revenge for Billy Batts, and a lot of other things." "VINNIE:" "That's that." "HENRY:" "There was nothing we could do about it." "Batts was a made man and Tommy wasn't." "We had to sit still and take it." "It was among the Italians." "It was real greaseball shit." "[Jimmy sobs]" "HENRY:" "They even shot Tommy in the face  so his mother couldn't give him an open-coffin at the funeral." "[Henry sighs]" "[Henry sniffs]" "[Upbeat rock song plays, background]" "[Helicopter propellers pelt]" "[Slam]" "HENRY:" "I had a busy day." "I had to drop the guns off at Jimmy's  to match some silencers he had." "I had to pick up my brother at the hospital  and pick up some stuff for Lois  to fly down to some customers I had near Atlanta." "[Song continues]" "HENRY:" "Right away I knew he didn't want them and I'd be stuck for the money." "I bought them because he wanted them and now he didn't want them." "What good are these?" "None of them fit." "I'm not paying for these!" "HENRY:" "I didn't say a thing." "Jimmy was so pissed off, he didn't even say good-bye." "The drugs are making your mind into mush!" "HENRY:" "I'll take 'em back." "HENRY:" "My Pittsburgh guys always wanted guns." "Since I would see them in the afternoon, for a delivery  I was pretty sure I'd get my money back." "[Tires squeal]" "Oh, my God." "HENRY:" "At the hospital, Michael's doctor wanted to put me in bed." "What happened to you?" "I almost got into an accident on the way here." "HENRY:" "And I told him I was partying all night." "I'm fine." "Get over here." "Let me check you out." "HENRY:" "He took mercy on me, gave me Valium  and sent me home." "My plan was to drop off my brother at the house and pick up Karen." "HENRY:" "There it is." "You see that helicopter right there?" "Right up there." "I think it's been following me all morning." " Get the fuck out." "Are you nuts?" " I'm telling you." "HENRY:" "It's the third time I've seen it." "At the hospital I saw it." "I had to make some stops." "I've seen it every time." "I've been all over town and I've seen it all day." "HENRY:" "I was cooking dinner that night." "I had to start braising the beef and veal shanks for the tomato sauce." "It was Michael's favorite." "I was making ziti with gravy  roasted peppers  string beans with olive oil." "I had some beautiful cutlets  that were cut just right  that I was going to fry up as an appetizer." "So I was home for about an hour." "My plan was to start dinner early so I could unload the guns Jimmy didn't want." "Then get the package for Lois to take to Atlanta later that night." "I kept looking out the window and saw that the helicopter was gone." "Michael, keep an eye on the sauce." "Stay here with your Uncle Michael." "HENRY:" "I asked my brother to watch the sauce, and Karen and I started out." "Oh, God." "I see it." " Look, it's right there." " Damn!" "HENRY:" "That's it." "We got to get to your mother's." "See, I told you." "It's funny." " It's not the end of the world." " We're going to your mother's." "[Rock song plays, background]" "[Slam]" "Tell your mother not to touch anything outside of the house." "Nothing." "Why didn't you go to your mother's house?" "[Blues tune plays, background]" ""Everything's gonna be all right this morning"" "Let's go shopping." "No, I'm not nuts, it's been following me all fucking morning!" "Alright." "He thinks I'm paranoid!" "HENRY:" "I should bring him the helicopter, then we'll see how paranoid I am." "Come on, let's go inside." "HENRY:" "Yeah, it's gone." "KAREN:" "I don't hear anything." "HENRY:" "Let's go back to your mother's." "HENRY:" "They all right?" "DRUG DEALER:" "They're great." "Didn't I say you were paranoid?" "Didn't I tell him?" "Yeah." "I need a hit." "Want to see helicopters?" "Come on, I'll show you helicopters." "KAREN:" "I've seen enough helicopters for one day, thank you." "HENRY:" "I had to get home and get the package ready for Lois to take on her trip." "Also, I had to get to Sandy's to give the package a whack with quinine." "Plus, I knew Sandy would get on my ass." "I had the cooking to finish, and I had to get Lois ready for her trip." " It's Sandy." "What the fuck is this?" " She's a pain in the ass." "SANDY:" "When are you coming over?" "HENRY:" "In an hour." "SANDY:" "You staying tonight, right?" "HENRY:" "I can't." "I got my brother tonight." "Come on, stop." "Stop." "We'll talk about it later, okay?" "Good-bye." "[Phone rings]" "LOIS:" "Hello?" "HENRY:" "It's me." "You ready?" "Tell Michael not to let the sauce stick." " Henry says don't let the sauce stick." " I'm stirring it." "HENRY:" "Listen, you know what to do?" "LOIS:" "Yeah, yeah." "Don't "yeah, yeah" me, Lois!" "This is important." "Make sure you leave the house when you make the call." "Understand me?" "Call from an outside line." "I mean it!" "Jesus, you must think I'm dumb." "I know what to do." "You little hick, just make sure you do it!" "LOIS:" "You're a pain." "HENRY:" "Hey!" "Just do it!" "LOIS:" "Okay." "Un-fucking-believable." "All of them." "Every fucking girl in my life." " What'd he say?" " Nothing." "HENRY:" "What does she do after she hangs up?" "After everything I told her?" "After all her "yeah, yeah" bullshit?" "She calls from the house." "If anyone was listening they'd know everything." "They'd know a package was leaving my house and they'd have the flight number." "As soon as I got home, I started cooking." "I had a few hours until Lois' flight." "I told my brother to watch on the stove." "All day long the poor guy's been watching helicopters and tomato sauce." "I had to drive over to Sandy's, mix the stuff, then get back to the gravy." "[Henry sniffs, then coughs]" "[Blues tune plays, background]" "Do you think you can come over, fuck me, then leave?" " Got someplace better to go?" " Don't talk like that." "Come on." " You all right?" " Yeah." "You believe me?" "Do you believe me?" " That's the last one?" " Yeah." "[Henry cackles]" "You lying son of a bitch!" "I hate you!" "[Scattered conversation]" "KAREN:" "Please stop feeding the dog from the table from the plate on top of it." "Stop it." "JUDY:" "I have to." "KAREN:" "You don't have to." "I got to go home." "What do you mean you got to go home?" "We got to tape this stuff to your leg." "We got to go soon." "I got to go home and get my hat." "Forget your fucking hat!" "Are you kidding me?" "I need a trip to Rockaway because you want your hat?" "I got to have it." "It's my lucky hat." "I never fly without it." "Do you understand what we are involved in?" "I don't care." "I need my hat." "I won't fly without it." "HENRY:" "What could I do if she insisted I drive her home for her damn hat?" "I hid the package and went to take her home." "A hat?" "[Rapid drumbeat, background]" "[Engine revs]" "HENRY:" "What the fuck is this?" "ARRESTING NARC:" "Police!" "Freeze!" "Don't move, motherfucker!" "I'll blow your brains out!" "Shut the car off slowly!" "HENRY:" "I thought I was dead, but when I heard all the noise I knew they were cops." "Only cops talk that way." "NARC:" "Don't fucking move." "If they had been wiseguys, I wouldn't have heard a thing." "I would have been dead." "Michael!" "Lock the door!" "[Sounds of panic from Karen and Michael]" "[Banging on door]" "NARC:" "Talk to me." "When was the last time you took a collar?" "I'm talking to you." "You don't want to say a fucking word, don't." "I don't give a fuck." "You'll do 25 years." "See how much of a good guy you'll be then." "HENRY:" "All day I thought the guys in the helicopter  were local cops busting my balls over Lufthansa." "They turned out to be narcs." "HENRY:" "Just get the lawyer." "HENRY:" "They'd been on me a month." "Phone taps, surveillance, everything." "NARC:" "You know the boys." "All the pals are here." "You don't want to talk to me, you'll have a fucking problem all night." "Each one of these counts holds 25-to-life in New York State." "25 fucking years, pal." "I'll slap your fucking head inside out." "NARC:" "What, were you guys grocery shopping?" "Are we going to make a cake?" "You going to make a fucking cake?" "You got anything good in there?" "Is it good?" "[Narc cackles]" "NARC:" "Bye-bye, dickhead." "See you in Attica, dick." "KAREN:" "I spoke to Jimmy." "He offered to give me some money." "He wants to know what's happening." "He just wants to talk to you." "Fuck Jimmy and his money!" "I got to straighten out everything with Paulie or I'm dead." "Then you're better off staying in here." "They could whack me in here as easy as outside." "They're afraid I'll rat them out." "People are already walking away from me." "I'm dead in here." "You got to get me out." "HENRY:" "Karen finally got her mother to put her house up for my bail and I was out." "I remember I had this feeling I would be killed right outside the jail." "I knew Paulie was still pissed at me and he's such a hothead." "And I was worried about Jimmy." "See, Jimmy knew if Paulie found out he was in the drug deals with me  Paulie would have Jimmy whacked even before me." "This is the bad time." "I didn't feel safe until I got home." "Now my plan was to stay alive long enough to sell off the dope  the cops never found, then disappear until things got straightened out." "Fuck!" "Where's the stuff I left, Karen?" "I flushed it down the toilet." "What?" "What was I supposed to do?" "That was worth $60,000!" "I need that money!" "That's all we got!" "They had a search warrant!" "That's all the money we had!" "I was depending on that!" "Why did you do that?" "I had to!" "They were going to find it!" " They wouldn't have found it!" " They would have!" "I swear!" "KAREN:" "They would've found it!" "[Karen screams]" "Why did you do that?" "KAREN:" "They would have found it." "HENRY:" "Why did you do that?" "HENRY:" "Oh, my God!" "KAREN: [Sobs] I had to do it." "HENRY:" "Oh, my God!" "[Henry pants and sobs, Karen sobs]" "[Tires squeal]" "HENRY:" "Paulie, I'm really sorry." "I don't know what else to say." "I know I fucked up." "Yeah, you fucked up." "But I'm all right now." "I can be trusted now." "I'm clean." "On my kids, I'm clean." "PAUL:" "You looked in my eyes and lied to me." "You treated me like a fucking jerk." "Like I was never nothing to you." "HENRY:" "After what you said, I couldn't come to you." "You know, I was ashamed." "I'm ashamed now." "But I got nowhere else to go." "You're all I got." "And I really, really need your help." "I really do." "Take this." "And now I've got to turn my back on you." "[Henry sighs]" "HENRY:" "Thirty-two hundred bucks." "That's what he gave me." "$3,200 for a lifetime." "It wasn't even enough to pay for the coffin." "HENRY:" "We got to get out." "KAREN:" "I don't want to run." "Am I supposed to pick up and leave everything?" "Go hiding?" "I don't want to do that." "If we stay around here we're dead." "You got it?" "We' re dead." "They're right." "You took too much of that stuff." "You're totally paranoid." "How's he doing?" "He's okay." "They sobered him up." "Good." "Glad to hear it." "What kind of questions they been asking?" "KAREN:" "I don't know." "I got my mind on so many other things." "I got no money." "The girls are old enough to read the newspapers." "Tell him he's got to call me." "As soon as you talk to him, he's got to call me." "It's important." "He doesn't know I came here to see you." "It's like he's crazy." " Take this." "It's a couple thousand." " Thanks, Jimmy." "Don't worry, everything will be all right." "JIMMY:" "I got some beautiful Dior dresses." "You want to have them?" "Pick out a few for yourself." "KAREN:" "For my mom." "JIMMY:" "Yeah, whatever." "Not here." "In the store on the corner." "It's swag, so I got it down on the corner." "Go ahead, sweetheart, I'll see you." " Thanks." " Don't worry." "KAREN:" "I'll try." "JIMMY:" "He's got to call me." "Over here?" "JIMMY:" "Right down there." "JIMMY:" "It's over there, on the corner." "Right there." "JIMMY:" "No!" "Go ahead!" "It's right there!" "KAREN:" "No, Jimmy!" "I'm in a hurry!" "My mom's watching the kids!" "I got to get home!" "I'll come back later!" "[Engine revs]" "[Tires squeal]" "Karen." "Karen!" "What happened?" "KAREN: [Sobs] Nothing." "HENRY:" "What happened?" "KAREN:" "I just got scared." "HENRY:" "Got the keys?" "What happened?" "[Sobs] I just got scared." "It's okay." " Are you all right?" " Yeah." "[Karen sobs]" "HENRY:" "If you're part of a crew nobody ever tells you they're going to kill you." "It doesn't happen that way." "There aren't any arguments or curses like in the movies." "Your murderers come with smiles." "They come as your friends." "People who cared for you all your life." "They always seem to come when you're weakest and most in need of their help." "So I met Jimmy in a crowded place we both knew." "I got there 15 minutes early and Jimmy was already there." "He took the booth near the window so he could see everyone who drove up." "He wanted to make sure I wasn't tailed." "He was jumpy." "He hadn't touched a thing." "On the surface, everything was supposed to be fine." "We were supposed to be discussing my case." "But I had a feeling Jimmy was trying to sense if I'd rat on him to save my neck." "I been telling you your whole life, don't talk on the phone." "Now you understand?" "It's going to be okay." "You got a good chance to beat this case." "Well, you know that kid from the city we were talking about?" "You know?" "The kid turned out to be a rat." "As soon as he got pinched, he ratted on everybody." "I know where he is." "He's hiding out." "Know what I'm saying?" "Would you have a problem going with Anthony to take care of that?" "No, not at all." "That way they got nothing." "HENRY:" "Jimmy had never asked me to whack somebody before." "But now he's asking me to go to Florida and do a hit with Anthony." "That's when I knew I would never have come back from Florida alive." "[Henry clears his throat]" "Wherever you move me, I asked once and I'll tell you again I don't want to go any place cold." "You don't have a choice." "Come on." "Whoever fucking controls it just no place cold." "Do that for me." "He's bronchial, that's why." "If he's bronchial we'll consider that." "I'd like to go someplace not cold." "Can I ask you some questions?" "What about my parents?" "What about them?" "Am I going to see them?" "Am I going to talk to them?" "Don't I have some kind of contact with them?" "No." "Wait a minute." "Wait a minute." "You mean to tell me if something happens to my parents and they get sick, I can't see them?" "Maybe something can be worked out if they're sick." "If there's extraordinary circumstances..." "I can't do this." "I can't do this, Henry." "I can't leave my parents." "HENRY:" "Karen, I told you before." "I'm not going to do this unless you and the kids come with me." "I can't do it without you." "So you do whatever, but... that's it." "KAREN:" "You need Henry, not me, right?" "EDWARD:" "That's right." "I don't care whether you go or not." "If it'll make him a better witness, I want you with him." "They don't want me." "EDWARD:" "Henry'll be in the protection program." "They can't get to him." "They can only get to him by getting to you or your kids." "If he goes into the program you're in danger." "KAREN:" "I don't know anything." "EDWARD:" "Don't give me the babe-in-the-woods routine." "I've listened to those wiretaps and I've heard you talk about cocaine." "EDWARD:" "Conversation after conversation you talked to Henry on the phone." "It doesn't matter." "Whether he goes to jail or stays on the streets, he's a dead man." "He knows it and you know it." "HENRY:" "What about the kids and school?" "KAREN:" "I mean, what goes on?" "TUDDY:" "Go to Wall Street and get real crooks." "Whoever sold you those suits had a sense of humor." "What it comes down to is we're your only salvation." "We'll save your life, his life, and we'll keep you out of jail." "EDWARD:" "This morning you told the jury about your background." "HENRY:" "It was easy for us to disappear." "My house was in my mother-in-law's name." "My cars were registered to my wife." "My Social Security cards and driver's licenses were phonies." "I never voted or paid taxes." "My birth certificate and arrest sheet were all that showed I was alive." "EDWARD:" "Do you see him here in this courtroom?" "Yes." "EDWARD:" "Will you please point him out for the jury?" "EDWARD:" "Let the record show that Mr. Hill identified the defendant, James Conway." "EDWARD:" "Do you also know a man named Paul Cicero?" "EDWARD:" "Is he in the courtroom?" "HENRY:" "Yes." "EDWARD:" "Can you point him out for the jury?" "EDWARD:" "Let the record show Mr. Hill identified the defendant Paul Cicero." "EDWARD:" "I have a document..." "HENRY:" "The hardest thing was leaving the life." "I still loved the life." "We were treated like movie stars with muscle." "We had it all." "Our wives, mothers, kids, everybody rode along." "I had paper bags filled with jewelry stashed in the kitchen." "I had a bowl of coke next to my bed." "HAYES:" "People call them rats because they will do anything to survive." "EDWARD:" "Objection!" "JUDGE:" "Objection sustained." "HENRY:" "I know nothing about being a rat." "HAYES:" "You know everything about it!" "HENRY:" "Anything I wanted was a phone call away." "Free cars." "Keys to a dozen hideouts all over the city." "I'd bet 20 grand over a weekend  then blow the winnings in a week or go to sharks to pay the bookies." "Didn't matter." "It didn't mean anything." "When I was broke I would go rob some more." "We ran everything." "We paid off cops." "We paid off lawyers." "We paid off judges." "Everybody had their hands out." "Everything was for the taking." "And now it's all over." "HENRY:" "That's the hardest part." "Today everything is different." "There's no action." "I have to wait around like everyone else." "Can't even get decent food." "After I got here I ordered spaghetti with marinara sauce  and I got egg noodles and ketchup." "I'm an average nobody." "I get to live the rest of my life like a schnook." "[Gunshots]" "[Fast-paced rock song plays, background]"
