"Typical Greek." "I know what he's up to." "If I accept it, he'll think I'm easy." "I don't want to know this." "What's that?" "Prime rib." "When did you start eating yogurt?" "Where's your danish?" "I'm trying to cut back." "You, cut back?" "My pants are getting a little tight, so I thought I'd give this a try." "Well, you can't expect to fit into boys' sizes." "You're not a boy anymore." "I'm 38 years old, ma." "I haven't been a boy for 20 years." "My son, the anorexic." "Aw, damn." "Fisk isn't going to play." "You going to the game?" "Yeah, tomorrow." "Sal and me." "Boston's in town." "Clemens is pitching." "Should be a great game." "But tomorrow's Wednesday." "Yeah." "And Wednesday we go to bingo." "Couldn't we skip it this week, ma?" "Skip it, Danny?" "I can't skip bingo." "I love it." "I haven't skipped bingo in 25 years." "Look, I--I'd cancel, it's just, you know," "Sal got these tickets over three months ago." "Ok." "I'll go myself." "Just be careful." "There's a lot of construction around the church, and I don't want you slipping and falling." "I will." "Your eyes aren't so good anymore." "Don't start that." "My eyes are perfect." "Then why are you pouring orange juice in your coffee?" "Damn cartons." "They're all decorated the same." "Ah!" "Aah!" "Oh, Danny." "I hope you enjoyed your baseball game." "Uh... ma, look, I'll--I'll skip the game." "We'll go to bingo." "Oh, no, no." "That's all right." "You go ahead." "Enjoy yourself." "No." "No, I can go to a game anytime, ma." "Bingo only comes once a week." "Thank you, Danny." "Ah, it's ok." "Are you going to eat that?" "No." "You want it?" "Yeah." "I'll start my diet tomorrow." "That's sissy food anyway." "True." "Very true." "The district court of Salvatore Buonarte and Danny Muldoon is now in session." "All rise." "What's the accused charged with?" "Uh, name's Dwayne Earl Tyrone." "Apparently he ran this piece-of-shit apartment housing down on the South side." "Mostly senior citizens, right?" "Well, he'd take their monthly checks, cash them, and strangle them to death." "Aw, gee." "How come guys like that do that?" "Chemical imbalance or something, you know." "Yeah?" "I read that somewhere." "You mean it's kind of a vitamin thing?" "Yeah." "It's a deficiency of some sort, like rickets." "Yeah?" "You take vitamins, Tyrone?" "Nah." "I'm going to start taking vitamins." "Yeah, me, too." "So... how's the wife?" "Ooh." "She cut me off, Danny." "For how long?" "She says until I seek professional help." "For what?" "She thinks I'm getting weird in bed." "Are you?" "Well... we been doing it the same way for the past 10 years, Danny." "Once a week, every Saturday night, right after the 9:00 sports, right?" "Same position, seven minutes of foreplay, 12 minutes of sex, and we keep our pajama tops on." "Well, I'm getting bored out of my skull." "Right, Danny?" "So I says to her, you know," ""Why don't we add a little spice?"" "You know, go state of the art." "State of the art?" "Well, yeah, state of the art." "You know, now it's the computer age, right?" "Electronics and stuff." "So I figure I'll go to the mature shop, right?" "Pick up something." "I bought me one of these..." "These big digital marriage counselors, right?" "What's that?" "It's a big, you know..." "It's like, uh..." "It's a love enhancer." "It's like a device." "All right." "So I bring this into the bedroom on Saturday night." "I pull it out." "I put it on her pillow." "You know, a little surprise." "Surprised the shit out of her." "She freaks." "She tries to kill it." "She thinks it's a giant centipede." "You're kidding." "So I been on the couch ever since." "Oh, I'm sorry to hear about that." "I envy you, though." "Me?" "Yeah." "You don't have to put up with this bullshit and heartache, you know?" "You can jump in the sack with any chick you want." "If she don't like your habits, you're on to the next one." "Well, it's been a little slow lately." "You know, that's the most infuriating thing about you-- you don't take advantage of your God-given position in life." "When's the last time you were on a date?" "Two, three months ago." "Nine." "Try nine, Danny." "Hey, who's counting?" "When's the last time you got laid?" "Sal." "Come on, when?" "It's been so long, you don't even remember, do you?" "Hey, I remember." "So, when?" "That's personal." "Oh, yeah?" "Why don't we try five years personal, Danny?" "Why don't you shut up and mind your own business, all right?" "Ok." "Good night, son." "Good night, mom." "15, hut!" "Go on." "Turn!" "Ooh." "You know, coach says he's a natural." "At what?" "At wide receiver." "Maybe if he put some weight on." "He could be a jockey." "I'm kidding." "Or a guard or a tackle, maybe." "Same thing." "Right, right, right." "On 1-- set, 35- hut!" "Go, go, go, go, go." "Ok, Billy, Billy, Billy." "Right there." "Catch the ball, Billy." "I hate this game." "Billy." "Billy, would you come back and practice?" "What does he have to practice for?" "He's a natural." "Let's get a beer." "How's work?" "It's fine." "Aren't you getting tired of it?" "No, no." "Sal and I, we have a lot of laughs." "Still, Danny, you've been driving that wagon for what, 15 years?" "Picking up stiffs, hauling away criminals." "You deserve better." "I don't want better." "Look, I am this close to John Burrows, your superintendent." "Now, we play golf every Sunday." "Just say the word, and I could get you transferred to Florida." "Nah." "I don't want to go." "Come on, Danny." "You and mom can get that waterfront condo that you've been talking about." "I don't want to go to Florida." "I'm not ready to retire yet, ok?" "Ok." "Just say the word." "Fine." "Thank you." "Well, it gives Patrick headaches." "Well, he never had headaches when he lived with me." "So how's mom?" "She looks tired." "She needs a change, you know?" "Different environment." "Susan and I would take her for a while." "You would?" "Yeah, but she'd hate it here." "Maybe not." "I just think she's happier in her own house." "You know, where we grew up, where she and dad lived, where she knew everybody." "And where I can take care of her, right?" "Well, yeah." "That, too." "So what?" "I mean, you make her happy, Dan." "You're her favorite son." "Aw, come on." "Don't pull that." "Plus you get your meals cooked, your laundry done, and your bed made." "Believe me, you'll never find a wife who'll do all that." "You're a good lawyer, Patrick." "A very good lawyer." "You know, maybe a gymnast." "Aah!" "Good evening, Clark." "Ah, evening, Rose." "Evening, Danny." "Ah, two more thirsty mouths." "The usual, is it?" "What do you suppose?" "What's the score?" "Boston's winning by 3." "Aw, gee." "You didn't miss much."

"You've already had a bit too much, and your friend there's fluthered." "Fluthered?" "Yeah." "It's parched, he is." "He hasn't wet his lips in 24 hours." "Frank, don't you recognize your old pal here?" "Holy mother of God." "It's Tommy Bones." "So?" "He died yesterday." "Get him out of here." "We can explain." "Larry, explain." "One August, back in '58, me and Jack here, we made a promise to Tommy." "We swore we'd bring him back to O'Neill's the night before his wake for one last Jameson." "Yeah, for his journey." "It's a sacred duty, then?" "Oh, yes." "Oh, it is." "It is." "Let it never be said that an O'Neill broke a promise to the dead." "Three doubles it is." "And if he drinks it, it's on the house." "Graverobbers." "All right." "Give him back." "After he's had a drink." "No, right now." "When he's had a drink." "Look, I could have you two arrested." "You know, you can't walk into a funeral home, take a corpse, and bring it to a tavern." "What's the matter with you, for God's-- all right." "What's going on here?" "Officer, these two idiots snuck into my funeral home and took the body while my daughter Theresa was on her coffee break." "All right." "Here's what we're going to do." "You two are going to take him back." "That is, unless you decide to press charges." "No, no." "I don't want to press charges." "Ok, fine." "Take the body back." "He can't drink anyway." "What did you do, sew his lips shut?" "All right." "That's enough out of you." "All right?" "I want you to take him back, understand?" "Then the both of you go home." "Don't break him." "Easy does it through there." "All right." "So that was Joey Luna, huh?" "Yeah." "He's got the parlor over there on Morgan street?" "That's right." "I guess that was his daughter." "She works for him." "Oh, yeah?" "Doing what?" "Painting faces." "Dead faces?" "Yeah." "She couldn't get a job right out of cosmetics school." "Is she married?" "No." "You know how it is." "The business she's in turns most guys off." "Oh, it would." "Yeah." "Why?" "Are you interested?" "Oh, no." "No, no." "I'm just curious, that's all." "You know, I..." "If you are, go for it." "Don't waste your time." "Ask the girl out." "Why should he?" "He's perfectly happy now." "Why screw things up?" "Don't listen to him, Danny boy." "Don't end up bachelors like the two of us." "Speak for yourself." "Danny's doing fine." "He doesn't have to go chasing some ghoul from a funeral parlor for a date." "He can do better than that." "He doesn't have time to do better." "All the good ones will be taken." "The girls should be chasing him." "I don't believe this." "I'm getting romantic advice from a widow and two bachelors." "One very experienced bachelor." "Celibacy is considered experience?" "Oh, I've had me share of women." "Three." "Just never been stupid enough to marry them." "You never been fortunate enough." "They all said no." "If I'd have gotten married," "I wouldn't be where I am now." "In a tavern?" "Free, living like a king." "You live at the Y." "I don't have to answer to anyone." "I come and go as I please." "I do what I want when I want." "Don't listen to him, Danny boy." "Call that girl." "Don't spend your life full of regrets." "...be seeing me." "I'll be seeing you, too." "Every day and every night and every minute..." "Could have been..." "It can't be." "Goodbye, fountain..." "And God bless you." "Goodbye, Blake." "Goodbye, Dan." "You missed a spot." "I'm--it was just a joke." "I'm s" " I didn't mean to scare you." "No one is allowed back here." "Sorry." "I, um..." "Is there a problem?" "No." "No problem at all." "I--actually, uh..." "I saw you at O'Neill's the other night, and, uh..." "Well..." "I--I, um..." "Ohh..." "Don't you just hate all that awkward stuff that, uh, goes with asking someone out on a date for the first time?" "I'll make it easy for you." "I'll give you a list of possible excuses, things I've heard a million times before." "All you have to do is say yes or no." "That way, it takes the pressure off both of us." "Make sense to you?" "Yeah." "Good." "Ok, uh, here we go." "Reasons why you can't go out with me on Saturday-- you're seeing somebody else." "No." "You're having your wisdom teeth pulled." "No." "You're washing your hair." "No." "You're going shopping." "You have to babysit for your, uh, neighbor's kids, nieces, or nephews." "No." "You're doing the laundry." "No." "You have to lube your car?" "No." "You're getting your legs waxed." "No." "I think that just about covers everything." "You forgot one thing." "What's that?" "If somebody dies," "I'm stuck here." "Oh, sure." "Of course." "Yeah, that-- yeah, that" " I-- yeah, sure." "But nobody died yet." "So you're, uh..." "You're free?" "Uh-huh." "Oh..." "That's terrific." "Great." "Thanks." "Ok." "That's-- that's wonderful." "Thank you." "Um, how about 7:00 I'll pick you up?" "Uh..." "Where do you live?" "Here." "With the stiffs?" "My father and I have an apartment upstairs." "Oh, sure." "Of course." "That's--that's, uh, convenient." "Yeah, it would be." "So 7:00, then." "If nobody dies." "If nobody dies." "Of course." "7:00." "Did you..." "Mean him to look like, uh..." "Clark Gable?" "Yeah." "You did that?" "Yeah." "Wow." "That's very good." "That's a talent." "Yeah... yeah, that's terrific." "He's a-- he's a dead ringer." "I didn't mean dead like that." "I don't mean..." "Dead like that dead." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean-- you know what I meant." "In fairness to" "I'll see you at 7:00." "Ok." "Great." "Great." "I'll, uh, close up here for you." "I'll get these." "I'm sorry..." "If I bothered you." "Don't screw this one up, Theresa." "Yeah!" "I'm sorry." "See, I just got lucky in there with a girl." "I didn't mean it like that." "It's not what you're thinking." "She does everybody in there." "Not... in that way." "But she probably did that guy there, for example." "I got to go." "Can you believe that guy?" "Hello, Marty." "Hello, John." "Rose." "Rose." "I'm trying again." "Will you please accept these flowers?" "I don't want them, and I don't date greeks." "You know, you and I could make each other so happy." "Oh, forget it." "Greek men are great lovers." "And Greek men never bathe." "I bathe twice a day, three times when I do my sit-ups." "[Slapping]" "Feel that stomach." "Hard..." "Like a 18-year-old." "Go on, feel it." "I'm not feeling anything of yours." "Rose, you have forgotten what a sweet thing romance can be." "Come to my bed." "You will never leave." "Have a little respect." "You're speaking to a lady." "I apologize." "I spoke my heart..." "And not my head." "A beautiful woman like you..." "Has that effect on me." "Oh." "Oh, Danny." "Where are you going all dressed up?" "I've, uh, ahem, got a date, sort of." "Oh..." "That's your father's jacket." "It fits pretty good, doesn't it?" "And your tie-- just like your father." "You always make the knot too big." "Let's see." "There now." "Oh, Danny, give these to your girl." "Women love flowers." "Some of them." "Thanks." "I got to go." "Oh, he's got a girl." "He's lucky." "[Organ plays 'Take Me Out to the Ballgame']" "I hope you don't mind coming here." "I wanted to bring you somewhere special on our first date." "Danny!" "Want me to turn the scoreboard lights on?" "You want to see the scoreboard?" "It's really something." "Yeah." "Go for it, Leo!" "Ok!" "Oh, that's great." "Whoa!" "Pretty, huh?" "Thanks, Leo!" "No problem, Danny." "It's a shame they're going to tear the whole place down." "Leo, he's been around here as-- jeez, as long as I can remember." "Great guy." "He lets me in any time I want." "Sometimes it's good to be a cop." "Oh, yeah." "My brother, uh, had his bachelor party here." "Oh, ho." "It was great." "We played baseball all night." "We had half barrels on each of the bases, you know, so every time a guy got a hit and you got on base, you had to chug a pint." "So all night, it was hit, drink, hit, drink, hit, drink-- all night long, it went like that." "In the morning, ok?" "The Sox came out-- they got a day game-- they came out here," "20 drunken Irishmen all over the infield." "It was a mess." "Guys were throwing up..." "Oh, God..." "That was funny." "That's the wrong story to tell you." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to bring that one up." "That's a bad story to tell on a first date." "That's not-- that's not a good story." "I'm sorry." "That's a-- that's a bad story." "It was funny, but that's not a good one to tell you." "I'm sorry about that." "I've been Mr. motor mouth all night long, you know?" "And, uh..." "Gee, I'm sorry." "Why don't you take the floor for a while?" "Me?" "Yeah." "You don't want to hear about me." "Yes, I do." "It's boring." "No." "Come on." "Like what?" "Like anything." "I don't know." "Like, um..." "What your favorite color is, uh..." "What you're going to do with your life, uh, what, uh-- how many brothers and sisters you got." "I don't care, really." "Anything." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to put you on the spot." "Light blue." "Sorry?" "My favorite color is light blue." "That's a very nice color." "Light blue." "Yeah." "That's terrific." "Boy, it's a shame they're going to tear this all down." "Was everything ok with dinner?" "It was fine." "You didn't eat much." "It was very good." "Thanks." "The chicken was a little greasy, wasn't it?" "No." "It's not too late." "Do you want to go out for a drink or something?" "Watch yourself there." "No, I..." "I have to work in the morning." "Somebody die?" "Two people." "Big day, huh?" "Yeah." "Well..." "Good night." "Good night." "Good night." "Danny." "Yeah?" "Is everything ok?" "You all right?" "I had a wonderful time tonight." "You did?" "I know it seemed like I didn't." "It seemed like you wanted to be on another planet." "I didn't." "Look, I know I talk too much sometimes." "I apologize for that." "No." "It's not you." "It's me." "You?" "I have this... thing." "What thing?" "I have this..." "Introverted kind of thing." "Introverted?" "That just means you're shy." "No." "No, it's worse than shy." "I guess it doesn't help spending eight hours a day with people who don't talk back to you." "No, I guess not." "But..." "I'm trying to get past it, to beat it..." "And it isn't easy, but if you could just bear with me and maybe give me one more chance," "I think I'm going to get a lot better because..." "I'm feeling..." "Very comfortable around you, and I would really like to go out with you again, if you would... you know, like to go out with me again." "I'd love to see you again." "Yeah?" "What are you, nuts?" "I didn't mean that." "Yeah?" "That's good." "That's great." "Yeah." "That is great." "There's a waterway terrace." "It's 20 miles from St. Pete." "[Door closes]" "Is that you, Danny?" "Yeah, mom." "How was your date?" "It was nice." "Very nice." "Did you spend all evening talking about dead bodies?" "No, we didn't talk shop." "What are you doing here so late?" "Susan kick you out of the house?" "He's got a surprise for you." "Oh, yeah?" "What's that?" "You're moving to Florida." "I'm what?" "You and mom." "You're moving to St. Pete." "I played 18 with Burrows yesterday." "He agreed to move you to a Florida precinct." "But why?" "Why now?" "Well, I needed an investment." "You know, I was thinking about our talk, and, Danny, you're absolutely right-- mom needs a change of pace." "Yeah, but..." "What about me?" "Maybe I'm not ready to leave Chicago." "Well, you'll want to leave Chicago eventually anyway, so what difference does it make if it's a couple of years earlier?" "Why wouldn't you talk to me first?" "Well, I wanted to surprise you." "It's a surprise, all right." "So is being hit by a bus." "Now be polite." "This is costing Patrick a lot of money." "Look, I don't want to rain on your parade, but I'd like to be included in a decision that's going to affect the rest of my life." "Hey, Danny, this is going to be great for all of us." "Yeah." "Well, you're not the one that's moving." "Would you think about ma?" "All her relatives live down there." "I mean, think about how happy she's going to be." "You don't have to worry about her slipping on the ice and breaking her hip or catching pneumonia from that winter draft upstairs." "Yeah." "Or walking into the side of a cab because she's too damn stubborn to buy a pair of glasses." "You're right." "Danny, you should've seen her face when I told her." "Really?" "I mean, 20 years just..." "melted away." "Where's the stinker?" "Apartment 603." "But the elevator's broken, so you're going to have to carry the body down the stairs." "Son of a bitch." "Ah, wagon men." "You couldn't pay me enough." "So, you get laid, or what?" "No, no." "It was just a date." "What's her name?" "Theresa." "Theresa." "The lovely Theresa." "Will you stop that?" "So, uh, was she good in the sack, or what?" "Will you drop it, please?" "Speaking of which..." "Oh, my back." "Ah, God damn elevator." "I'm not carrying this guy down six flights," "I'll tell you that right now." "What do you want to do, roll him down the stairs?" "Just a second." "Check it out, man." "Hey." "Hey, Sal." "Yeah." "About the football game." "Oh, yeah." "I'm really excited, man." "50-yard line seats." "They're playing the Packers." "We'll be able to nab some good autographs from the sidelines." "Yeah, uh..." "I can't go." "What?" "Well, it's not bingo night, is it?" "No." "I promised Theresa" "I'd take her to the ballet." "The ballet, huh?" "Pussy-whipped." "Pardon?" "Hey, look, I could give two shits about the game, Danny." "It's you I'm worried about." "Me?" "Yeah." "Hey, don't go getting serious and falling for this chick, all right?" "Why?" "Is something wrong with that?" "Well, you know, you got to leave your options open, Danny." "That's all." "I mean, lady-wise, you've broken the dry spell, right?" "So maybe you're on a roll, that's all." "You know, ask out some of the other babes." "Sample some of the other flavors." "I mean, that's what I would do, you know what I mean?" "Otherwise, uh, you're going to get trapped." "Believe me, it's miserable." "Huh?" "Ok." "We got it." "All right." "Aw, shit!" "Aw, shit!" "What do we do now?" "I guess we have to bring him back up." "I ain't bringing him back up here." "He's too damn heavy." "Well, what do you suggest we do?" "Cut the hose." "Cut the hose?" "Yeah." "Let him fall." "To the ground?" "Yeah." "A fall like that could kill a guy." "He's dead, for Christ's sake." "He's not going to feel nothing." "I don't think it's such a bright idea." "Why not?" "Well, for one thing, look at the crowd down there." "Ah, maybe you're right." "Let's just bring him up." "Ugh!" "Ooh!" "Get back." "Aw, shit!" "Aw, shit!" "Sometimes it is not good to be a cop."

"And who's going to help me hand out the apples now?" "Oh, come on, ma." "You can do it." "We only get about 50 trick-or-treaters." "You think I'm going to that door alone?"

"Does your mother know what you're doing for a living?" "Aah!" "Oh, Danny," "I hope your fancy-schmancy ballet was worth it." "[Cymbals crash]" "I'll be right back." "Sorry." "Is everything ok?"

"I mean, you've got this person on display in front of everybody, and you've got to make them look good." "Course." "That's why, when somebody dies, right, the first thing I do is figure out what famous celebrity they look like, and then I fix up the dead person to look just like them." "That's a talent."

"And you want to spend some time alone with this girl." "I just want to have a nice dinner with her." "Well, any silverware she uses, wash it twice." "Heavy on the rinse cycle." "Those Sicilian germs stick to your forks like glue." "Why don't you take her out to dinner?" "Because I want to cook." "If she eats your cooking, it'll be a short romance." "Well, I learned from the best." "Kidding." "I'm kidding." "Nick the Greek asked me for a date." "Oh, yeah?" "You going to go?" "Well, I told him I'd consider it if he did something for me." "Yeah, like what?" "Watch this house." "Watch this house?" "Why?" "Let me know when that girl leaves." "If she's not out of here by 1:00," "Nick will tell me." "What?" "Why would you do that?" "I guard the most dangerous criminals in Chicago." "I think I can look after my own life." "There are bars between you and those prisoners." "Nick, don't forget." "Hi, ma." "Hi." "Good luck, Danny." "Thanks." "Nick, how could you do this to me?" "I'm a lonely man, Danny, in love with a woman who..." "Despises me." "I'm" " I'm desperate." "But don't worry." "I won't let my heartache interfere with your chances for romance." "As far as I'm concerned, that girl will leave this house this evening at 11:35 p.m." "On the button." "I owe you, Nick." "[Mario Lanza singing Sorrento in Italian]" "Ow!" "Jeez!" "Ow!" "Aah!" "Ow!" "A little bit more." "There we go." "Aw, son of a bitch!" "Hi." "Hi." "The door was open, so I thought I'd just come in." "Good." "Sure." "Yeah." "Is everything ok?" "Actually, uh... no." "I just destroyed dinner." "Ma usually does the cooking." "I'm not really that hungry anyway." "Really?" "Good." "Very good." "And this, of course, is my room." "Hey, I got to really decorate it up." "It's starting to look like an old Elks Lodge." "It's nice." "Oh, what is this?" "I guess the maid left it." "Oh." "You were planning this." "No." "I--I--I wasn't planning anything." "You know, I--I didn't expect you to just come in here and, you know, and jump in--I--no." "No." "I--I didn't mean that." "I meant a little bit I was planning." "Just-- but just a little bit." "I-- you know, just this far." "It's ok." "I told my father" "I was going to spend the night at my girlfriend's house." "Really?" "Yeah." "Hey, that's great." "[Singing in Italian]" "What is it?" "Oh, uh, it's silly, you know." "Really." "It's-- what it is, it's just-- it's Catholic guilt, is what it is."

"Hey, you, uh-- damn women." "[Muttering]" "Danny." "Oh, my God." "It's my ma." "Come on." "Hurry up." "Come on, come on, come on, come on." "Let's go!" "Come on!" "Where am I going to go?" "You got to hide, hide, hide, hide." "Where?" "No, not here!" "Over there, over there, over there." "Where?" "Just wait there." "Don't say anything." "Danny?" "My clothes." "Clothes." "Yeah, clothes." "What is she doing home now?" "Danny, I'm home." "Ah, ma!" "What are you doing home so early?" "Well, I took the early train before anybody was awake." "Oh, good." "Aah!" "What's that for?" "Keeping your promise." "Nick said you had that Dago girl out of here at 11:35 on the button." "Oh, yeah." "I almost-- almost forgot that." "Well, I'll go to my room and unpack my bags." "Ok." "Why don't you do that?" "What's this?" "It's a... hat." "It's a hat." "Sacrilegious." "Wait!" "I'll do it." "I'll do that." "Don't do that when I can do that, when I could have done that." "What on earth is the matter with you?" "Nothing." "Nothing." "Didn't you sleep well?" "Yes." "No!" "No, I didn't." "Well, we better get you a new mattress." "Oh, good idea." "A very good idea." "Yeah." "That's what we have to do." "Ok." "Come on." "Hurry up." "Will you hurry?" "Ju-just" "I'm hurrying." "Oh..." "I'm 38 years old." "I don't need this." "I'm getting chest pains." "Hurry up, will you?" "So that was your mother, huh?" "Yeah, that was her." "What do you think?" "Dago girl?" "Ooh, that." "She's got a very eccentric vocabulary." "Had she known you were in the room, she never would've said it, believe me." "You look very nice, by the way." "Hello." "I'll be down in a minute and make you some breakfast." "Aw, that'll be nice." "Yeah." "A little breakfast." "Bye." "Bye." "Mom, promise me you'll be on your best behavior." "Oh, I will, I will." "Ok, thank you." "There she is." "Where are her breasts?" "What?" "She's got no breasts." "Did she have some sort of an operation?" "She's fine." "It's her dress." "It's just a little big on top, that's all." "Is she anorexic or anything?" "No." "Well, if she goes to the bathroom more than three times during dinner, that's a sign she's bulimic." "What?" "She's throwing up what she just ate in the bathroom." "Oh, please." "Hi!" "Hi." "How are you?" "Uh, ma, this is Theresa." "Theresa, this is my mother." "Pleased to meet you, Mrs. Muldoon." "Rose." "I'm Rose." "Rose." "Oh, that's a lovely dress you're wearing." "Isn't it?" "Oh, thank you." "Even though it is a little big on top." "Ma." "Well, it is." "You said so yourself." "No." "That's a-- a problem I have." "I'm not really that endowed on top." "No, no, no, no." "You're built like a 13-year-old boy." "Mom, would you please don't start?" "It's a joke." "I'm trying to make jokes here." "I'm trying to lighten things up a little." "Ok." "Thank you." "Would anyone like to order a cocktail?" "Yes." "Oh, I'll have a glass of beer." "And don't try to sneak any of that sour imported swill off on me at $6.00 a bottle." "Just a plain glass of Budweiser." "Yes, ma'am." "Sir?" "I'll have a beer." "Just any beer is fine." "Yes, ma'am?" "I'll have a vodka double on the rocks." "Good." "Ah, a vodka drinker." "Well, ma, Theresa's probably a little nervous." "You know, being here with us and all." "You know, you can understand that." "It's the first signs of alcoholism." "What?" "I read it in Reader's Digest." "Rose, I can assure you" "I'm not an alcoholic." "Oh, denial-- that's another symptom." "The article said that one shot of vodka was equal to all of the calories in a ham sandwich." "Good." "Maybe I'll gain some weight and grow breasts for you." "Ha ha ha ha ha." "That's funny." "Tha-- growing breasts." "Let's order, shall we?" "Shall we order?" "Theresa." "Ma." "Well, I know what I'm having." "Yes, sir?" "I'll have the shrimp cocktail, please, and the Caesar salad, no anchovies, and the prime rib..." "Uh, medium." "Very good." "Make that medium rare." "Very good, sir." "Thank you." "There you go." "Thank you." "Ma'am?" "Um, I'll have the-- the grilled chicken." "Good." "That's all." "Don't you want an appetizer?" "No, thank you." "Don't push it." "Uh, ma'am?" "Nothing." "Nothing?" "Nothing for me." "Ma." "Just bread." "Ma." "Bread's fine, thank you." "Thank you." "Are you trying to ruin this dinner?" "I'm trying to save you $50." "I'll fill up on bread here and eat something when I get home." "I don't believe this!" "Now, Theresa," "Danny tells me that you're Sicilian." "Yes." "Part." "Part?" "My father is Sicilian." "My mother was Polish." "Ohh!" "Polish." "Yes." "Polish?" "I meant to tell you." "Polish?" "Polish." "I had a Polack friend once." "She was incredibly stupid." "Don't do this, ma." "Julie Kapowski." "She was the stupidest woman that I ever knew." "She believed that black cows-- ha ha ha ha!" "Black cows squirted chocolate milk." "I think it's better if you and Danny have dinner alone." "Theresa, wait." "Why don't you have my grilled chicken?" "Cut it up in small pieces and devour it." "You seem to be very good at that." "Oh." "Theresa." "You all right?" "I've never been in an argument before." "I've never said those things to anybody." "I feel like I'm going to throw up." "Just take a deep breath." "You'll be fine." "I actually stood up for myself for the first time in my life..." "Not that I had much choice." "What?" "You just sat there." "You didn't do anything to stop her." "Like what?" "Well, I don't know." "Scream at her, slap her-- just get her to leave me alone." "Theresa, she's my mother." "So that gives her the right to rip me apart?" "What was I supposed to do?" "Fight for me." "Fight for you?" "You've got to understand my mother." "She's old." "She's set in her ways." "It's going to take her a while to get used to you." "No, it won't." "Why not?" "Because I won't be around." "Oh, please don't do this." "No." "I want a guy who will always fight for me, who will always stand up for me, who will never let me down." "I thought that guy was you." "I was wrong." "Wait a minute, Theresa." "Taxi!" "Come on." "What are you doing?" "Don't do this." "Look, don't do this." "Theresa, let's talk about it, all right?" "Just talk to me." "I'm starving." "I'm going to the kitchen to get something to eat." "I suppose you're proud of yourself." "Just telling it like it is." "That's been your excuse for the last 67 years." "My excuse?" "Your excuse for hurting people whenever the hell you feel like it." "I don't hurt people." "Oh, no?" "I guess you didn't hurt Aunt Dolly on her wedding day when you said she looked like a cheap Las Vegas hooker." "Well, did you see the wedding dress?" "The back of it was cut right down to here." "You could see the crack of her-- well, it was indecent." "And I guess you didn't hurt cousin Jerry when you called his German wife a Nazi who probably slept with Hitler." "Well, there's no proof that she didn't." "I guess you never hurt dad either." "I never hurt your father, ever." "Florsheim Shoes?" "How do you know about that?" "You came home late." "You were arguing." "I woke up." "I was scared." "I didn't know what was going on, so I listened in at the door." "A little spy." "Come on." "I was only 12." "Spy!" "Florsheim Shoes was his big account." "He worked on that for over 2 1/2 years." "You blew it for him in one night." "Danny, don't." "All he had to do was sign a deal at dinner-- one fancy-schmancy dinner with a V.P. from Florsheim." "I'm going to bed." "No, you're not." "Everything was fine that evening-- dinner was perfect, dad had him in the palm of his hand until you decided to tell it like it is." "I was right." "I still stand by what I said." "You called dad's bosses filthy Jew shylocks." "They never gave him a raise, not in 12 years." "Not one Christmas bonus!" "Ma..." "The vice president of Florsheim and his wife were Jewish." "Well, how was I supposed to know?" "They didn't look Jewish." "I wasn't talking about them." "They took it personal." "You lost the account for him!" "$450,000 to the company!" "He's lucky he didn't lose his job!" "Your father never stood up to his bosses." "It was time somebody set the record straight." "That night was the only time" "I ever heard my father cry, and still, to this day, you still tell it like it is." "I don't mean to hurt people." "Really." "Where are you going?" "To Halsted." "A friend of mine owns a jewelry shop." "He owes me a favor." "I'm going to make him open up his store." "Then I'm going to buy the biggest engagement ring I can afford." "Then I'm going to ask Theresa Luna to be my wife." "Just telling it like it is, ma." "[Motor whirring]" "[Tap tap tap]" "[Tap tap tap]" "What are you doing?" "Well, I was just in the neighborhood, and I thought I'd drop by." "Sometimes it's good to be a cop." "What do you want?" "I just want to say that I'll always stand by you and I'll never let you down again." "I swear." "And, uh..." "Oh!" "I got the light blue stones." "I..." "Well, I thought you'd like that." "Will you marry me?" "Yes." "Great." "Yeah!" "Way to go!" "Yo, Danny!" "Yay!" "Whoo!" "All right!" "Whoo!" "Hey, Mr. Happy, how about a towel?" "Getting married." "Mail-order bride?" "Ha ha ha ha!" "Heh heh heh heh." "That Bobby's a real asshole, you know that?" "Hey, Danny." "Well, my best friend is making the biggest mistake of his life, so I thought that deserved a toast." "I don't know why you're doing it, Danny." "I told you, it's because I love her." "And your mother?" "She hates Italians, you know that." "She got used to you." "Took her 15 years." "And she'll get used to Theresa." "Yeah, but she's going to miss you, Danny." "I'm just getting married, that's all." "She's taking this fine." "As a matter of fact, she's handling it very well." "Oh, she is, is she?" "Yes, she is, really." "Hello, Mrs. Muldoon." "Oh, yeah, right." "Hello, Sal." "Jesus, ma!" "What are you doing here?" "Oh, stop fussing." "I've probably diapered half of them." "Come on." "Why?" "We have an appointment." "With who?" "The Polack priest." "The Polack priest?" "Ohh..." "Why?" "We've got to settle our problems." "Well, can't this wait till later?" "The protestants and the Jews go to the psychiatrist." "We go to the priest." "You feel threatened by Theresa." "Threatened?" "Yes." "See, she's taking up a lot of Danny's time, so you're feeling threatened that she's trying to steal your son." "What?" "Rose..." "I know you realize it's the nineties." "I'm just not sure you realize it's the 1990s." "I've never been threatened by anyone, ever, and I've been through D-Day, Korea, Vietnam-- just relax." "You see that?" "That's what I don't want to become." "I don't want to be like one of those old ladies who spends the rest of their lives standing in line." "What do you mean, standing in line?" "Well, they stand in line for the confessional every single day, even though they have no sins to confess, just so they can blather with the priest about Vatican II." "And they stand in line outside the movie theater, even though they've seen the movie 10 times, just so they can complain to whoever's standing near them about the price of the ticket." "And they stand in line at the grocery store just so they can complain to the cashier about the price of frozen string beans, whether they should be 29 cents or 39 cents." "And do you know why they spend so much time standing in line?" "No." "Because there's nobody else in the whole world they can talk to." "How does that look?" "Looks good." "Yeah?" "Looks real good." "Feels all right, too, you know?" "What do you think?" "You like the style of this?" "Yeah." "It's fine." "Hmm?" "Just fine?" "I thought it looked pretty good." "What's with you?" "Come on." "You've been moping around all day." "This is supposed to be fun." "Hey, could you guys give us a minute?" "Thanks." "Look, Danny..." "Yeah?" "I been thinking." "Yeah?" "Maybe, uh..." "Maybe this isn't such a good idea." "What's not a good idea?" "Hey, you know, this..." "wedding thing." "Maybe you're rushing into it." "Well, you just met her a little while ago." "Maybe you should take a break." "Go to Florida with mom." "Maybe you'll meet some knockout in a bikini." "Something wrong with Theresa?" "I didn't say that." "Did you hear me say that?" "There is nothing wrong with Theresa." "She's just-- just what?" "Well, she's a little plain." "Oh." "A little plain, huh?" "Yeah." "And what's this, the cover of GQ?" "Oh, this is hot, huh?" "Great look." "I'll buy next month's issue." "I just think that you can do better." "I don't think so." "This is the girl." "You got that?" "She's the one." "Dan, take it easy." "I'm just being truthful." "I mean, we're brothers, right?" "We're supposed to be truthful with each other." "Don't give me this two-way lawyer crap." "And what's that supposed to mean?" "You couldn't give two shits about me or Theresa." "All you care about is yourself." "Hey, that is bullshit!" "Is it?" "You want me to change my mind." "You want me to go Florida and live with ma." "Then you wouldn't have to feel so guilty." "Hey, Danny, come on." "That-- forget it." "This is my chance." "You understand?" "You took your chance." "You got someone to wake up with in the morning." "You got a houseful of kids." "You got a train around the Christmas tree and little ones running around in Halloween outfits." "Now you want me to feel guilty for wanting the same things?" "Fuck you!" "Listen to you." "You go off, and you get laid one time, and you think you're in love." "Come on." "Oh, shit." "It's all right." "It's ok." "Don't worry about it." "It's all right." "I'm a cop." "It's ok." "All right?" "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to hit you." "The hell I didn't." "I meant to hit you." "It's ok." "I, uh..." "I deserved it." "I wa" " I wa-- was out of line." "Look, Danny..." "All I'm trying to say..." "Is make sure that you're in love with this girl." "Make sure it's real." "Wait a minute." "I can't take you dancing." "I got to consider it." "♪ When I go to a dance ♪" "♪ I guess that I should be thrilled ♪" "♪ As soon as I walk in like that-- ♪" "What's the matter with you today?" "You seem a little edgy." "I'm fine." "What is it?" "I'm fine." "Really." "Come on, Danny." "I've got a lot on my mind." "Ok?" "You can tell me." "It's just that..." "Yeah?" "Ever since my dad died, I've been in charge." "Ma and Patrick-- they've depended on me to be responsible, to take care of things, and I have." "I've always been there for them when they needed me." "Everything I've ever done, every decision I've ever made was for them." "I mean, I became a cop because ma wanted Patrick to go to law school." "She didn't have the extra money, so..." "I came through." "And, I..." "And I'd do it again." "I'm not complaining." "It's just that..." "Well, now..." "You and me..." "It's the only time..." "The only time in my life" "I've made a decision without thinking of them first." "And..." "I guess I'm a little scared." "I'm afraid they're going to think that I've abandoned them." "I know that sounds stupid." "I just..." "I just don't want to lose my family." "[Irish reel plays]" "There you go." "Whoa, got beer behind you here." "Excuse me." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Hey, Joey, how's the stiff business?" "Drink all that beer yourself, huh?" "Oh, thank you, father." "Good to see you, Driscoll." "This is my wife." "Glad to know you." "Isn't it a nice party?" "Oh, yeah." "[Ting ting ting ting]" "All right." "This is a very sad day for meself and spats." "We lose a valuable member of our exclusive club-- bachelorhood." "Excuse me." "I--I would like to make a speech, but I would like to make a speech in Greek." "And who would understand it but me?" "But anyway, uh..." "Danny, Theresa, to speak Greek, you only need three words-- se agapo para polu." "It means..." "I love you." "Uh, everybody, uh, I'd like to propose a toast." "To my beautiful daughter and her future husband." "Tomorrow you'll be married." "One little word of advice, ok?" "Let nothing come between you." "Salute." "Salute." "Salute." "So my son is getting married, and it seems that all of you approve of his choice, but you haven't heard my side of the story." "I refuse." "And I repeat, I absolutely refuse to accept Theresa Luna as my daughter-in-law." "I will only accept her... as my daughter." "[Applause]" "Really?" "Good night, ma." "Good night." "Had a great time." "It was a wonderful evening." "Good night." "Good night now." "Drive carefully." "Good night, Danny." "Good night." "Ma, I'm going to take Theresa home." "Oh, fine." "Rose, I'll drive you over to the Irish village." "We'll talk a little treason." "Thanks, but I am a little tired." "Come on." "It's not even midnight, Rose." "I'll drive." "Excuse me." "Ma, do not get in the car with that man tonight." "He's been drinking." "Don't worry." "I'll go straight home." "Ok." "You promise?" "I promise." "Good night, ma." "Good night, Danny." "Rose, my car's right over here." "I promised Danny I'd go straight home." "It's all right." "Come on, Rose." "It's a big night." "We should be celebrating." "No." "I'm tired." "I'd rather go home." "Just--just one little drink." "No." "I don't want anything to drink." "Aw, come on, Rose." "We're driving to Niagara Falls?" "Yeah." "You know," "I thought that would be a neat trip, and it's kind of romantic." "We can't go to Niagara Falls." "It's too cold." "Oh, no." "It'll be fine." "It's freezing." "But then we're going to go down to New York City and see some shows, I thought, you know." "Some Broadway shows?" "You can pick up some pointers." "Wait." "Look." "That's our wedding cake." "Oh, wow." "Look at that." "This is ours?" "Yeah." "It's so pretty." "This guy's good." "Yeah." "He's great." "It's so pretty." "I'm so excited about tomorrow." "I'm so happy." "Rose, how about a little drink?" "Just one little drink." "No, thanks." "I don't want anything to drink." "Ok." "Are you sure you're going to be able to drive?" "Positive." "My God!" "You're driving all over the street!" "Look, I'm fine." "Shut up." "Watch out where you're going!" "Oh, my God!" "You're driving down a one-way street." "Wake up!" "Wake up!" "[Honk] [Honk]" "Aah!" "[Tires screech]" "Oh!" "Get your foot off the gas!" "Wake up!" "Wake up!" "Aah!" "Oh, Daniel, I hope you have a wonderful wedding!" "Aah!" "Danny." "Danny, are you ok?" "Excuse me." "I'll be back in a moment." "Ma?" "Uh, you're home." "Good." "I was just checking in on you, that's all." "I'll, uh..." "I'll see you later." "Ok." "Uh, good night." "What's wrong?" "You called her on the night before our wedding?" "Yeah." "I just wanted to make sure she got home ok." "I don't believe this." "What?" "Are we ever going to be alone?" "What's that supposed to mean?" "Why don't you call her again?" "It's been five minutes." "Maybe she burned down the house." "Maybe she fell down the stairs." "That's not funny." "No, it's not funny." "It's sad." "It's sad that she's always in the back of your mind, making you feel guilty." "It's like she has some kind of hold on you." "I honestly believed that if we loved each other enough..." "Maybe you could let her go." "And what am I supposed to do-- just forget about her, slough her off, pretend she doesn't exist?" "No." "Just stop letting her run your life." "Be your own person, your own man..." "And put us first." "You can't." "Can you?" "I don't know." "[Clock chiming]" "It's midnight." "You better be going." "It's bad luck to see the bride after midnight." "[Playing Pachelbel's Canon]" "Here you go, mom." "You seen Danny yet, or what?" "He should be here by now." "Yeah." "You would think so." "Danny." "Hi." "Susan, is Theresa here yet?" "No." "She didn't call or anything?" "No." "Not yet." "[Telephone rings]" "[Ring]" "[Ring]" "[Ring]" "Keep going."

"Passed away in his sleep last night." "Where's his family?" "What family?" "His mom died 15 years ago." "He's got a sister in a nursing home." "Never married, no kids." "I guess we're it." "Rose." "Before you go, I..." "We could have been great together." "I--I'll go back in and see if I forgot anything." "Oh." "Oh, come on." "Wait here, ok?" "I'm going to go help mom." "Ah, Casey, do me a favor." "Give me the keys to your cruiser, will you?" "Yeah, no problem, Dan." "Thanks, man." "Yeah." "You know, Danny..." "I'm actually going to miss this house." "Yeah." "Well, there's no point in getting all teary-eyed about it." "Get your bags." "Come on, let's go." "What's keeping you?" "We'll miss the plane." "I'm not going with you, ma." "What?" "It hit me yesterday at the funeral." "If I go with you to Florida," "I'd be leaving behind the best thing that ever happened to me." "If it's not too late," "I'm going to try to get her back." "So you're sending me off to Florida alone." "No." "Ma, Aunt Jean and Uncle Walter, they're going to meet you at the airport." "Uncle Walter." "He's always trying to look under me skirt when I cross my legs." "Ma, come on, please." "Very well." "Fine." "Who needs you anyway?" "Ma." "Ma." "I'm an old woman." "I can't be expected to wait on you hand and foot for the rest of my life." "I'm sick and tired of doing your laundry, ironing your shirts, cooking your meals." "I've lost gallons of sweat and buckets of blood, all for you." "You've been nothing but a ball and chain of heartache and hurt hanging around my neck for too many godforsaken years." "It'll be good riddance to you." "I'm sorry, Danny." "That's ok, ma." "You were just telling it like it is." "No, Danny." "I was lying." "Telling it like it is would hurt too much right now." "Go." "Marry that girl." "Have lots of Irish-Dago mutts, and, every once in a while, bring them to Florida to see their grandmother." "I love you, ma." "I'm not so lovable." "True enough." "I'm kidding." "Danny." "Yeah?" "She's gone." "New York." "3:15 train." "Oh, damn." "[Siren]" "Lois, this is Danny Muldoon." "Yeah, Danny." "Get me Freddie Nunzio at Union Station and hurry." "10-4." "Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!" "What the hell are you doing here?" "Danny gave me his ticket." "The thought of you traveling to Florida all alone..." "Nearly broke my heart." "That's why I'm here." "A kiss before takeoff?" "Forget it." "I'm going to sleep." "Well, at last, we get to sleep together." "Folks, we have to make an unscheduled stop here." "There's going to be a bit of a delay." "For security reasons, everyone will have to deboard the train." "We're sorry for the inconvenience." "Thank you." "Theresa!" "Hi." "You did all this, didn't you?" "Sometimes it's good to be a cop." "So what do you want?" "All aboard!" "I--I--I..." "I just want" "I--I..." "Don't you hate all the uncomfortable stuff that goes with trying to ask somebody to get back together with you?" "I'll make it easy for you." "I'll give you a list of excuses." "All you have to do is answer yes or no, ok?" "Good." "Here goes." "Reasons why you and I can't get back together-- you're seeing somebody else." "No." "You're moving into a convent." "No." "You're having your legs waxed?" "No." "You've fallen out of love with me." "No." "No?" "No." "That's great." "May-maybe, uh..." "You and me, we should-- you forgot one thing." "What?" "Your mother." "She's gone." "To Florida?" "She's on a plane." "So how do I know you won't hop a flight to be with her tomorrow or next week or next month?" "Because I'm the one who let her go..." "And I'm ready to put us first." "Final boarding call for all passengers traveling to New York City!" "Come on." "Where?" "Well, we're boarding." "You're going to New York?" "I know this police sergeant in the Bronx." "He transferred from Chicago." "Maybe he can pull a few strings, you know?" "Give me a line on a job." "You'd do that?" "You'd leave everything behind just to be with me?" "Yeah." "I love you." "I love you, too." "[Airplane engines roar]" "To our homeland, or we will all die!" "Nobody move!" "Rose!" "[Cheering]" "Danny, relax." "I can take care of myself." "Is everything ok?" "Couldn't be better." "Come on."
