"And you know what he does?" "He rearranges the cabinets." "He remakes the bed." "He vacuums the entire house." "Do you know another man that vacuums the house?" "It's abnormal behavior." "Oh well, you know, changing the phone number and not telling your husband is pretty normal." " All right." "I don't exist, you don't exist." " OK." "So now I know how it feels." "No no." "I know how you feel." "I'll tell you something, Joe." "It felt good." "Now I do know .. how it feels to be so in control." "Now I know how it feels to be strong." " You love control, don't you?" " My God." "Please, Joe." "Just listen." "Otherwise you just play out the old pathology." "Maggie, you were saying Joe leaves." "Yes, he leaves." "He leaves me .. with the house and the kids... and the bills.. but not a husband." "I want my husband." "Joe .." "What do you think you're running from?" "I ain't running from nothin'." "You hear yourself?" "The man I married was a college man." "Being the distancer forces Maggie into the role of the pursuer." "This gives you a feeling of power." "Simultaneously, you resent Maggie for .. for fulfilling her intimacy needs which .." "I'm an undercover agent for the FBI .. uh .." "Doctor." "You and your Mafia faggots can go screw each other." "I'm not gonna do it anymore." "Oh boy!" "I really hope that you can help her out." "Because obviously, she's very sick, and you can see that." "Oh obviously." "Obviously I'm the sick one." " You." " Now..." "Monday, Wednesday and Friday are Joe's .. intimacy days." "Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday are Maggie's." "Now, on your day, you make an intimacy request." ""Rub my back" or..." ""I have a problem with the kids." "Could you help me out?"" "Oh, you know what?" "You sit around in your safe, little, fuckin' house... with your .. your safe, little, fuckin' station wagon... and your safe, little friends." "You dream up the next hundred-dollar head fuck." " Will you rub my back?" "Fungool." " You're an animal, do you know that?" " Just get in the fucking car." " Do you know that, huh?" "You know what my intimacy request is for that guy?" "It's very intimate." "He can take the bill he's gonna send me and shove it up his ass." "You know why we went to him?" "I was hoping he could come up with one good reason for me not to leave you .." "because I don't have one anymore." "What?" ".." "You gonna leave me?" "You gonna leave me, Maggie?" "You don't leave me." " Hello" " Hey Mag." "Oh my God!" "He's .." " What's the matter?" " Donnie, where are you?" "Uhh ," "I'm in New York." "I had to come back." "Why?" " It's Tommy." " What?" "What's goin' on?" "What happened?" "Can you give your sister some vegetables, honey?" "Thank you." "Not with your fingers, sweetie." "What else do you need?" "We did fractions today in class, you know?" "Did you?" "Fractions?" " Oh, I got my test back and I got a .. 95."

"He gonna be all right?" "Do I know?" "They got 12 fuckin' diplomas on the wall, and they can't tell you a fuckin' thing." "Forget about it." "Tommy gets out of this fucking Bellevue... he's going right back to fucking up." "What'd he do?" "He overdose?" "That ain't the question." "A plastic pipe .. in his mouth." "About five million .. tubes." "They got a machine breathing' for him." "Where's the fuckin' doctor?" "You want me to go talk to this guy for you?" "We gotta talk to the doctor." "Whadda ya gonna do, break his legs?" "I'm sayin', do you want me to do somethin'?" "I'm here, ya know?" "Yeah." "I want you to go back .." "down to Florida." "You belong to Sonny now, Donnie." "Believe me." "Look!" "I came here to be with you." "I wanna help you out." " You're my man." "I'm here for you." " I don't want you here, Donnie!" "You and Tommy is both peas in a fuckin' pod." "You don't listen." "Youse got your own ideas." "You do what you wanna do up on your high horses." "Everything's a joke." " You go to LaGuardia and you get back .. get back to Florida." "Get on a plane." " Come on." "I ain't goin'." " Forget about it, I ain't .." " Come on!" "Hey look." "I'm gonna stay here with you." "You wanna kick the shit outta me?" "I'm gonna be right here."

"And he's asleep in there .." "same as 28 years ago." "With the same expression." "He's made no progress." "He ain't got no fuckin' respect." "He's my son." "His heart stopped." "Like a watch." "That's what the doctor said." "Just like a watch." "They had to wind it back up." "Who knows?" "Maybe next time... they can't." "Hey!" "He's gonna be all right." "He'll be all right, pal." "He'll be all right." "I love you, Donnie." "Burn, baby burn" "Hey, all right!" "Burn, baby burn" "How ya doin', Nicky?" "Burn, baby burn" " Hey .." "Donnie!" " Wow!"

"I like it big time." "So I had to self-destruct" "Okay, Donnie, this is the take." " Put this bag someplace safe, will ya?" " All right." "Chicken taco." "Just turn real slow." "Is there a problem, officer?" " What's your name, boy?" " Donnie Brasco." "What's yours?" " What are all you New York Guineas doin' down here?" " Your missus invited us." "Gentlemen, we're running a charity event here." "We have a permit." "You have a permit for the lion?" "Break it up!" "You fuckin' pig!" "I guess you didn't uh .. ever think of paying these guys off, did ya?" "Where the hell am I gonna get the money to go bribing cops?" "Nobody authorized that."

"How much is it .. a boat like that?" "How much uh .. whadda you think?" "You could get a .. sports fisherman for maybe .. 300 used." "Why are you asking me about boats, Donnie?" " I was just wonderin'." "I was curious, ya know." " You're curious about boats?" " Yeah." "It's .. ten .. degrees out here!" "I'm freezing." "You're asking me about boats?" "After what we just said?" " Hey!" "You losing' your marbles on me, or what?" " Nah." "I'm all right." "I'm all right." "= You don't ask questions like that." "That's .. crazy." "OK?" " Yeah." "You hit this cocksucker and leave him in the street." "Come on." " You wanna tell me what's going on?" " Nuttin'." "Go back to bed." "I'm looking for somethin', all right?" "I'll be right in." "It's not gonna work anymore." " Where is it?" " There's $300,000 in that bag." " How do you know what's in that bag?" " I uh .." "I counted it." " Yeah?" " Yeah." " You counted it?" " Yeah." "Anyway, you counted it!" "It's none of your business." "It's none of my business?" "It's in my house." "Who would ever believe it wasn't my business Joe?" "I want that fuckin' bag Maggie." "FBI men .. do not walk around with $300,000 in a bag." " Joe." "You could go to jail for this." " Shut the fuck up!" "Nobody's goin' to jail." "Nobody's goin' to .." "Did you think about your children for a second?" " Joe, did you stop and think about your children?" " You have no idea what you're talkin' about first of all." " I don't?" " Because the bag belongs to somebody else." " I don't have any idea?" "It does?" "Who?" " What am I gonna explain to you?" "Just some fucked-up guy." " A fucked-up guy?" "A fucked-up guy needs $300,000?" "Yeah that's right." "Now where's the goddamn bag?" "Shit!" "You're becoming like them, you know that?" "Did you ever once ask yourself how I make it through my days, huh?" "I pretend I'm a widow .." "with medals and scrapbooks..." "and memories." "I pretend you're dead." "That's how my life makes sense to me." "Just go away." "Stay away." "Why do you hate me when I love you so much?" "You think I hate you?" "I don't hate you." "This job is eatin' me alive." "I can't breathe anymore." "And if I come out, this guy Lefty dies." "They're gonna kill him .." "because he vouched for me .." "because he stood up for me." "I live with that every day." "That's the same thing as if I put the bullet in his head myself, you understand?" "I spent all these years .. trying to be the good guy you know what I mean, in the white fuckin' hat." "For what?" "For nothing'." "I'm not becoming like them, Maggie." "I am them." " Left." " Donnie." " Donnie." "Where you been, Donnie?" "Yeah." "Look uh .." "I gotta see ya." "You're right you gotta see me." " We found Sonny Red's kid." " Bruno?" " Yeah." "He's on a boat .. on Staten Island." " I'll pick you up." " No, no." "We .. we don't have time, Donnie." "You .. you meet me there." " OK" "Bruno's here .." "He's down the end of the pier." "We'll wait here a minute while he has his drink." "Let him get a little sleepy." " I'm getting a little sleepy myself." " How's his boat?" " The boat?" " Yeah." "Nice." "Forget about it." "One thing I know is boats." "I'd like to pop him, throw him in the water, take the fuckin' boat." "Remember when you said a couple a times how .. uh .. if you had that Bertram again... you'd drive down to the pier with Annette .. and just go." "Remember you said that?" "North, South, East, West, nobody'd ever find you." "That was before." "Don't remind me about that now." " Yeah, but I'm just saying .." " I don't want to think about that." "Did you mean it?" "Mean it?" "Who am I Rockefeller?" "I'm gonna go buy a boat?" " I'm saying, what if, Left?" " What if." " What if .." "i mean .." "I got a couple things going on the side there, couple a jewel things." "Maybe I could get that kinda money for ya." " You gonna find money for me to get a boat?" " Maybe." "Now that would be real generous of you, Donnie." "What if I could hand you .." "a bagful of money right now?" "You know what I'm saying?" "You could leave this life." "You said it yourself, Left." "You don't move up" "Every day you're looking over your fuckin' shoulder, you don't know what's gonna happen .." " Donnie, listen to me, Donnie." " No more bullshit .." " Donnie" " Get outta this life is what I'm sayin' Left." " I'm gonna show you somethin' Donnie." " What?" " And I want you to look at it very carefully." "And then I want you to think .." "very carefully... about what you say to me." "That's a federal boat, Donnie." " I really don't think that's the same boat, Left .." " That's the same boat." "It's got some name on it .." "The Left Hand." "It's like my name." "That's that Abscam boat." "You think I knew that was a federal boat?" "You think I'm a fucking rat?" "How many times .." "I have you .." "into my own house?" " Twice a week." "Twice a week at least." " Ahh, there it is .. at least." " I cook for you." " Yeah." "If ever I had any money, I'd give you .." "I never had any money, but if ever I had... a hundred bucks in my pocket, I'd give you fifty, right?" " Yeah, you did." " If you're a rat .." "If you're a rat, then I'm the biggest fuckin' mutt in the history of the Mafia." "Even if this thing is a federal boat, Left... they scam all these other people." "They didn't scam us .." "You know what I'm saying?" "We went." "We had a great party." "We walked away from it." "How do you know .." "that we walked away from it?" "Well, we're sitting here, right?" "So they tried to outsmart us, but we out smarted them." "We beat the agents." "You gotta believe me." "OK." "Let's go do this work." "Get this over with." "Two in back of the ear." "Like pushing' a button." "Bing-bing." "That's it." " Yeah." " Don't freeze up." " Don't freeze up." " Nah." " Lotta guys freeze up." " Nah, I'll be all right." "Did I say youse a rat?" " I can't believe you brought that up." " C'mon." "Forget about it, Left." "I'll never say youse a rat." "I'm your best friend." "All right." "Let's go do this thing." "Come on, Donnie." "Come on." "FBI!" "Freeze!" "Shit!" "Don't say nothing, Donnie." "Don't say nothin'." "Don't tell 'em nothing, Donnie." "Donnie!" "Don't .. don't say nothing." " It'll be all right" " Fuck you." "I'm not coming you." "You'll be out in 24 hours, Donnie." "Hey, Donnie." "You're all right." " It's over, man." " Don't say nothin' to 'em, Donnie." "It's over, Joe." "When the deep purple falls" "Over sleepy garden walls" "And the stars begin to twinkle in the sky" "You've known this guy as Donnie Brasco." "That's not his real name." "Truth is, he's been an FBI agent all along." "You can contact me here, if .. you wanna talk." "Could believe those fucking guys?" "There's no way Donnie's an agent." "It's a nice fuckin' bluff, huh?" "That boat was a setup." "They set the boat up." "Don't we think Donnie's a rat" "It'll set me goin'." "He didn't know Donnie." "Right." "He didn't know Donnie." ""Hyenas kills many young cheetas and more than one could overpower the mother .." "and turn on the cubs."" "Yeah." "Yeah." "All right." "All right." "Yeah." " Was that for me?" " Ahh .." "No." "It was a .." "guy I gotta go see." " So late?" "What am I gonna do?" "Who knows .. with these people?" " Annette, don't wait up for me tonight." " No?" " Nah." "I don't know how long I'm gonna be." "And listen to me..." "If Donnie calls .." "tell him... tell him uh .." "if it was gonna be anyone .." "I'm glad it was him." " All right?" "Look how beautiful you look." " Goodbye" " Bye, Ben." "[Gunshots]" "Excuse me, Mrs. Pistone." "To special agent Joseph .." "uh Joseph D. Pistone, in grateful recognition for meritorious service, allow me to present you with this .." "medal and .. this check for 500 dollars." "Hold the check up." "Congratulations again, son."
