"It's safe to talk here." " The tainos got hit." " Yeah?" " Yeah, and somebody took anibal out too." " No shit." " Yeah, yeah." "And ruiz got hit." "Maybe in retribution or maybe not," "But I don't really know." " Why you don't know?" " 'cause I don't ask no questions." " Your uncle g pulled you in," "So he expects you to ask questions." "He expects you to come to play, son." " I'm just his driver." " As long as you see yourself as that," "It's all you'll ever be." "We all start off small, man." "Runner, corner, cash-kid."

"Stern that I called to set a meeting." " I bet he did forget your birthday." "Now it's your chance to make him pay." "Let's put the man-quarium right here." " Girl, what the fuck is a man-quarium?" " A giant fish tank filled with men." " You're out of your mind." " It's your 30th birthday." " Exactly." "And I want it to be grown and sexy," "But not with no ghetto-ass shit." " Mrs. St. Patrick's right." "I was thinking we can come up" "With a birthday shout-out at the top of every hour." "We can come up with a signature cocktail" "Or maybe even do a balloon or a confetti drop." " First of all," "She's turning 30, not 13." "So enough with the balloon stomping, all right?" "And make sure there's plenty of ciroc," "Because that's all my people drink," "And no coconut because I'm allergic to nuts." "Thank you." " I really couldn't wait to see you." " Yeah." " I'm starting" "I'm starting to get distracted at work." "It's bad." " Not all bad." " Hello?" "Yes, that's fine." "I'll be right there." " You okay?" "Everything good?" " It's my father." "He's, uh, not well." "I gotta go." "I can pay for the room if you want." " No, are you kidding?" "I got the room." "Don't worry about the room." " He's out in long island." "Gotta get the train." "Paz said he was unhappy there, and I should've listened." "I could hear him screaming in the back room." " Hey." "Hey, hey, hey, hey." "He's gonna be okay." "Look at me." "He's gonna be okay, all right?" "My ride's downstairs." "I can take you." "I want to take you." "You're not listening!" "Why is that man in mr." "Williams' bed?" " Papi, papi." " Angela!" "We're good here." "Thank you." "You're safe here." "Shh." "The doctors are looking out for you, papi." "We all are." "Paz will be by later, okay?" "That's my friend, jamie st." "Patrick." "He drove me here." " The punk from the corner?" "The drug dealer?" "I thought I told you to stay away from that boy." "He's no good." " Pap--papi, shh." "He's finally asleep." "It's so hard to believe he's the same man" "That grilled me on spelling," "Grounded me when I got a "b."" "God, he could be an asshole sometimes," "But now he's..." "He's helpless, so scared." "I'm sorry." "I'm a mess." " Angie, is there anything I can do?" " I don't think so," "Unless you can make this all go away." " This is holly." "Obviously I'm doing something" "More important than taking your call," "So leave a message." " Hey, call me back." "If I don't answer" "Never mind." "Just call me." " Ruiz is expecting me." " Yeah, yeah." " I've got a nine on my waist." "And one on my ankle." " Hold up." " Oops, I must have forgot about that one." " Who the fuck is you, rambo?" " Can I go see your boss now?" " Come on." " He's here to see jefe." " He clean?" " Yeah." " All right." " Yo." "Yo, we got a visitor." " You look like shit." " I can't go to a regular hospital." "Too many fucking questions to answer." "Gracias." " Can we talk alone?" "They already patted me down," "Took my gat." " Nice of you to visit." "Where's ghost?" " She won't let me fuck her in the ass." "Her sister will, though." " I been stabbed twice." "I'd rather get shot." "It wasn't us, ruiz." " I heard different." " We ain't got no beef with you." " You're drug dealers." "You got beef with everybody." " They say the same thing about you." "Maybe it was anibal's people." "Maybe it was rolla." "Neither of those motherfuckers got any love for you," "And really, nobody else wants you dead?" "You're a drug dealer too, ruiz." "You got more enemies than you even know." "Look." "If me and ghost was behind this hit," "I wouldn't be here right now," "And neither would you." "Who's watching the elevator?" " Jefe wants somebody there all day." "I got it." " Can you clean it up?" " Uh, uh, I don't know." "Would you even know if ghost put out a hit on me?" "Your compai's been acting kind of strange lately," "Going out of his way to be all nice to me," "But then not showing up at meetings he arranges." " With all this bullshit going on," "He's trying to keep a low profile," "Something you might want to consider doing." "Celebrating my high holy day, and this puta sticks me." " The hitter was a girl?" "What'd she look like?" " She looked like ice cream and sunshine" "Till she stuck me." "Great tits, beautiful ass," "Latin girl, strong." " A girl hit us too." "Anything else you remember?" " I wasn't looking at her face, man." "Light hair, curly." "We find this girl, we find out who's been hitting us." " Oh, you're goddamn right, ruiz." "We in this together." " I haven't been back here since I left." " The bodega got replaced, of course," "With this pet store." "But otherwise," "Just like the old days." "I thought you could use a milk shake." " Hmm?" " You think they still make black-and-whites?" " Well, that's why we here." "Only one way to find out, miss big-time." "Oh." "Just give me a second, baby." "What's up?" " Are you on your way in?" " No, I'm having lunch out" "In forest hills." "You just want to hear my voice?" "What?" " Your wife's birthday" "You sounded serious, and I'm trying to make it work," "But I'm gonna have to call in more staff, pay overtime." " That's fine." " The other woman wanted 20 cases of ciroc." " Yeah, whatever they need, just do it." "I gotta go." " Wait, there's one more thing." "Simon stern" " Just make it happen." " Fuck are you doing?" " Just staying close in case he needs something." "I was the one who saved his life" "While you were all rubbing asses." " Who's the blanquito in there with ruiz?" " That's the guy who gets us the products." "Distro." " I'm going in." " Yo, yo, yo, yo." "You'll blow our cover." " You want to call your girlfriend and ask" "If you can pretty please do your fucking job," "You go for it, all right?" "I've been on this case three years now." "If lobos' distributor's in that building," "I'm getting a look." " Son of a fucking bitch." " Who would know a girl like that?" "Anibal's dead," "I don't think rolla would use a female for wetwork." " Lobos." " Ghost don't think so." " You, ghost..." "Have taken your eye off the ball." " Nah, man." "We just waiting for our pitch." "Now, I'm gonna find this bitch." "I'm gonna make things right with us." "I'ma find that girl." "Don't you worry." " Yo, that's one crazy motherfucker." "Yo, yo, yo." " One floor down, homey." " You feel better now?" " A little, but only because of the milk shake." "I gotta take this." " Go ahead." "I understand." " Everything cool?" " I'm still alive, if that's what you mean." " Good, let's talk later." " No, we need to talk now." " I can't talk right now." "I gotta go." "All right, you got my undivided attention." " Fuck." " You've reached 347-555" " Kantos, it's tommy." "Where's your boss?" "Is he talking to some club asshole over there?" " I thought he was having lunch with you" "Out in forest hills." " He's in forest hills?" " That's what he said." "Got off the phone in a hurry." " I'm sorry my dad said that..." " Ah." " About you being a punk, a drug dealer." " Yeah, he remembers what he remembers." " He remembers wrong." "You don't just become a good guy, jamie." "To get where you are now means you were always one inside." "I was right about you all along." "You're always taking me someplace to eat" "Like you're trying to fatten me up or something." "No, I just like the look on your face" "When something gets real good to you." " Mm, you must see that look a lot." " No, it's different, though." "It's your body and your smile" "And your mind, the way you think." "It's all of you." "It's not what you are." "It's who you are." " Look, jamie..." " Mm-hmm, what?" " Do you want to come over tonight?" " What about greg?" " There is no more greg." " Hmm." " No more hotels, okay?" " Okay." " Thank you." " What are the odds?" " My god, tommy." " How you doing, angie?" " Not bad." "How about yourself?" " Look at you." "I'm holding my own, holding my own." "Get me a black-and-white, large." "I was just visiting a sick friend of mine" "Not too far from here." "He sends his regards, so I figured," "Why not pick up the best black-and-white" "In new york on my way home?" "I thought you'd be at the club." "What are you two doing way out here?" " Oh, you know, just catching up on old times." " It seems like forever ago." "I'll never forget the time you tried to hook me up" "With your friend, the hot one, italian." " Silvana, she had a thing for you." " Oh, not enough to let me get to second base," "And trust me, I tried." "I got my hand up in there." "She cancelled christmas" "On your boy with a quickness." "Kicked me right out onto the street." "You know who would love these crazy stories" "About when we was kids?" "His wife, tasha." "Tomorrow night, we're having a big birthday party" "For her at the club." "You should come." " I work late thursdays." " Aw, too bad." "Another time." "I'm gonna go." "I don't want your ice creams to melt." "Thanks." " You got it." " Thank you." "Call me later." " You bet." "I think I'm just gonna catch the train back to the city." " Angie, I'm sorry." " Sorry about what-- that you're married," "That your best friend knows your wife," "That he mentions her name casually in conversation" "Because he doesn't know we're sleeping together?" " I'm sorry about tommy." "Forget about everything he said." "Look, I want to be here with you" "And later at your place." " I'll call you, jamie." " We had a shot, and I took it." " No, you jeopardized the entire operation on your own." " Who knows when or if we would've had" "An opportunity like that?" " And what if someone made you?" " Nobody made me." " You're sure about that?" " Positive." "Because I know how to handle myself" "On and off the field, unlike some of us in this room." " Fuck you, medina." "I'll have frankie call your s.A.C. Over at the d.E.A.," "Get you sent back where you came from." " Oh, really?" "Vaya." "Take it to frankie." "This way, um," "I can get a few things out in the open myself." "Excuse me." " I did the best I could to keep him from going in." " He didn't even get a good look at the guy?" " No." "I sent the audio to forensics to see if they can clean it up." "We should hear something within 24 hours." " Yeah, well, I'll be here." "Reached angela valdes." "I'm unable to take your" " So..." "Lunch was nice yesterday." "How was the rest of the date?" " None of your fucking business." " That's funny, since the other night," "You were all up in my business about me seeing holly." " Look, when you get tired of this girl..." " I'm not gonna get tired of her." " Okay, well, when you do," "She's gonna get fucking pissed." "She's gonna fuck up our whole club," "The money, every fucking thing, tommy." " You worried about me fucking up the club?" "If tasha ever found out that you were nailing another broad," "She'd blow up your family and our whole fucking game." "She'd take you to the cops" "Just to see your cheating ass rot in prison." " First of all, lower your fucking voice, man." "Secondly, tasha wouldn't do that, and thirdly," "She ain't gonna know shit 'cause you ain't gonna tell her shit." " Oh, you're damn right I ain't gonna tell her." "That don't mean she won't find out." "I bet your phone is full of texts from angie" "And cute little voice messages." ""so good to see you again after all this time" ""after I broke your heart" "And threw it in a fucking dumpster."" "Forgot all about that, huh?" " It's different now." " Yeah, you're married." "That's what's different now." " Look, I got the whole situation under control." " Yeah." "You always think you got everything on lock." "Ruiz says a girl stabbed him." "Same as hit liliana and chased 'bueso." "Ruiz says it was a latina chick with nice tits" "And long, light-colored hair." "Bet we could get a better description" "If we could ask liliana, but, whoa, my bad." "We can't, since we had her iced." "Didn't know I knew about that, huh?" "I been looking at that bitch for weeks," "Waiting for you to say something." ""hey, tommy, I know we agreed to kill her," "But I changed my mind."" "That would've worked." " Thought she was more useful alive." "I made a judgment call." "Now we can have julio go back to liliana" "To see if ruiz's description lines the fuck up," "If she remembers anything." " Yeah." " We gotta find this girl, man, and who she's working for." "That's all that matters, tommy." "None of this other bullshit." " Yo, g." "Angela was trouble before," "And she's trouble again." "I just don't want to see you get fucked up." "That's all." " Hi, shawn, we're almost ready." " Mama, you look beautiful." " Yeah, that's a real nice dress, mrs." "St. Patrick." " Thank you both." "Raina, have you seen my diamond hoop earrings?" " No, I'm smart enough to stay away from your stuff." " But not smart enough to figure out your fractions." " Did you finish your homework, son?" "Yeah, that's what I thought." "Game off until you're finished, okay?" " All right, let's roll out." " Let me find my earrings first." " Watch your mama blame me for that somehow." " Join the club, dad." " Yeah." "Shawn, you went to visit your pops?" "How'd it go?" " Yeah, he's good." "I don't think he's eating enough, though," "So he's looking a lot leaner and tighter from all the push-ups." " Tell him I sent my regards?" " Of course." "And he sent his back too." " Cool." " Can you tell my dad I'm old enough" "For assassin's creed now, shawn?" " What you trying to do, get me killed?" "Do your homework." " Did you find them?" " No." "They'll pop up sooner or later." "Come on, let's go." "Okay, you two, listen to big mama, all right?" " Okay." " I'll see you in the morning." " Good night, baby girl." "Take care of your sister." "You want to keep that ps3," "You do your homework for real, now." " Good night, babies." " Good night." " How long you gonna duck my calls?" " Until you're straight with me, there's nothing to talk about." " It's just fucking money." "Why do you care?" "I have it." "Enjoy it." " Tommy, if it was about your money," "I wouldn't be in these heels and this slutty dress." "I would be home on my night off." " Kantos made you come in for this?" "Let me talk to that little bitch." " Do you really not understand why I'm mad at you?" " You're mad because you don't believe me." "But that's on you, all right?" "That's not my problem." " Then why are you fucking calling me all day?" "You don't get to pick and choose" "What part of your life you let me into." " Look, holly." "I'm not lying to you, all right?" "I got work to do."

"Make yourself comfortable." "Here, have a seat." "Let me cut to the chase." "Cynthia sheridan took her business from me" "To come to you and your club..." " Truth." " Truth." "That vexed me a great deal." " It wasn't personal, sir." " Of course not." "But it made me think either you're stupid" "And don't care about profit" "Because you basically gave" "The whole cow away for free" "Or you're smart and have something I don't." " Other than the cynthia sheridan parties?" " We have a full house every night," "Another 500 waiting out in the cold," "Two djs on retainer, a back entrance for celebrities." " Something tells me simon knows our stats already." "You're asking what makes us more than just lightning" "In a bottle." " You're right, I am." " You're wanting to know what I have to offer you." "Well, you have to make me an offer." " I see." " Holly!" "Holly." "Yo, holly!" "Been looking all over for you." "Get in the car." " Fuck you." " You stole from tasha, and I lied to cover your ass." "Now get in the fucking car!" "What kind of fucking criminal are you?" "You owe me one now." "Come on, get in the car." "What the fuck you thinking" "Stealing from tasha, my family?" " I didn't think she would miss them." "Her closet, it's like a fucking department store." " It doesn't matter how much shit she has." "She's like my sister." "I told you that before we went to their place." " Look..." "I like to take shit." "That's just who I am." "I'm sorry, though." "It was a dick move." "You can rat me out to her if you want." "Whoa, where you going now?" " All that money I found in your place, tommy" "That's not from the club." " No, it's not." "But if you're gonna be my girl," "I gotta be able to trust you, holly." "What I tell you," "You..." "Can't tell nobody 'cause nobody else knows." " I want to know." " Thing is," "I sell some dope on the side to make a little extra money." "I'm a drug dealer." " I'm not fucking stupid." "Your phone isn't ringing day and night." "You don't live in some shitty walk-up." "And there's no way "some dope" pays for a nightclub." "Whatever you're doing ain't a goddamn hobby." "Tell me the truth, tommy." " I'm at the top of the food chain." "I got a crew of motherfuckers hustling for me," "And we move serious weight." "If I go away, I go away for good." "You wanted the truth." " Yeah, I did." " So what you think?" " I am a fucked-up thief," "And you are a crazy drug dealer." "I think" "You and I were made for each other." " You're here." " I'm here." " Unannounced." " I like the element of surprise." "You said you and greg are over." " We are." " So can I come in?" " I think that's a bad idea." " I saw simon stern today." "It went great." "He wants to have dinner, keep talking about a future." " Congratulations, jamie." "I'm really happy for you." " You're the first person I wanted to tell." "In fact, you're the only person I wanted to tell." " When I'm with you," "I can't hold myself back." "I want to." "I want the reality to matter," "But it doesn't." "I just see you." " I get wrong when I'm away from you." "I need another hit to get right." "Another hit?" "That's exactly how it feels." "I was so committed to not seeing you," "And then you just knock on my door," "And I let you in." "A girl only has so much resolve." " Sorry." " No, you're not." "What were you even supposed to talk about anyway?" " Stern." "My meeting." " Tell me." "Come on." " Well, I don't want to get ahead of myself," "But we talked about partnering," "Expansion," "Vegas, miami." " Mm, I like miami." " Sorry, babe." " I know." "I don't want you to go." " I don't want to go." " I mean, is there any way" "Could you stay the night?" "Never mind, I know the answer." "Reality calls." " I wish I could, angie." "Hey, hey." "It won't always be like this." " Yeah, okay." " I promise." " Thank you so much, shawn." "I hope you got a chance to enjoy" "Some of the party the other night." " Yeah, I did." "Actually, um..." "I got you a little something myself." " Shawn, you did not have to do that." "You do enough already." " Nah, it's just a little something." "I hope it makes you smile." "I heard you say you lost a pair of earrings, so, um..." " They're beautiful." "But I can't accept them." "I wouldn't want ghost to get the wrong idea." " Yeah." "Yeah, right." " Excuse me?" "What was that?" "Shawn, what did you just say?" " Nothing." "I didn't say anything." "I mean," "You deserve someone who's as loyal to you" "As you are to him." " What the hell does that mean?" " He's always just putting other stuff ahead of you." "But what the hell do I know?" "I'm just the driver, right?" " I need men down in the garage" "And at all the doors." " Someone coming."

"I'm telling you this piece of shit" "Tried to have me killed, and you're asking me" "If you should see if he's carrying a weapon?" "What the fuck?" "Has planned." " Who?"
