"I looked over everything, sir, and I don't think there should be any problems." "Yes, sir." "I ordered the vanity, and I looked at the tub." "I'm pretty sure we could rout it out."

"[Man moaning in next apartment]" "[Knocking on door]" "Hi." "My name's Violet." "We sort of met on the elevator." " I'm Corky." " Corky." "Well, I heard you working in here, and I was wondering if you'd like a cup of coffee." "Sure." "Come on in." " Just give me a second." " All right." "So, what happened to Rajeev?" "He went back home to India or someplace, but I think he'll be back." "So, it's just a temporary situation for you?" "Yeah." "Pretty much." "You know, one day at a time." "Hmm." "I guessed you were straight black." " Good guess." "Thanks." " My pleasure." "To be perfectly honest, I did have an ulterior motive." "I was wondering if I might ask you a little favour." " Favour?" " Yeah." "I'm kind of a night person, and I was wondering if you might wait a little bit before you start using the power tools." " Uh, sorry." " Oh, no, it's not your fault." "It's just the walls here are so terribly thin." "Really?" "It's like you're in the same room." "If it's too much trouble, I understand." "No." "It's no trouble at all." "I got a lot of stuff to do here." "You doing all the work yourself?" " Mmm." " That is so amazing." "I am so in awe of people who can fix things." "My dad was like that." "We never had anything new." "Whenever anything was broken, he would just open it up, tinker with it a little bit and fix it." "His hands were magic." "I'll bet your car is 20 years old." " Truck." " Truck?" "Of course." " '63 Chevy." " I knew it." "Well, I guess I should be going." "You can drop the cup off at any time." "Thanks." "My pleasure."

"Come on in." "I was doing the dishes, and just as I pulled the stopper, my earring fell in." "That's why I got upset." "It's one of my favourites." "You got a pot or a bucket?" "Did you find it?" "Oh, my God." "I can't believe it." "I can't thank you enough." "You have to let me pay you something." " No." " No?" "I told Bianchinni I'd do it." "I did it." "Well, if you won't take money, how about a drink?" "You can't work all night." "All right." " One drink." " What would you like?" " Beer." " Beer." "Of course." "Sit down." " Thanks."

"Uh..." "I'm sorry." "Hi." "Welcome to the family." "So, uh, you're working with Rajeev, right?" "No." "Rajeev's in India." " She's doing the work herself." " No shit." "Bianchinni hired you."

"Because you know him?" "Oh, you see..." "Baby, that's what I love about you." "You're so fucking sensitive." "But I like you here." "I want you to stay." "You know, this is hard on me, too." "I like Shelly." "So why don't you watch some TV or put on a cassette or something?" "Are you OK, Violet?" "Mick, why is Johnnie here?" "You know how I feel about that psycho fuck." "Ceasar, didn't I tell you to get something?" "Sure." "Sorry, Mickey." "You shouldn't have to see this." "Why don't you get outta here?" "Go for a walk." "Ceasar wants me to stay." "Don't worry about Ceasar." "I'll handle Ceasar." " You just get out of here." "OK?" " OK." "Thank you, Mickey." "[Man grunts]" "Here you go, Mick." "[Johnnie] Go all fucking night, Baby!"

"Where's our money?" "Aah, God!" "[Snip]" "Ohh!" "[Muffled screaming]" "You all right?" "Come on." "Let's get outta here." "Keep it." "Shelly was skimming from the business." "He came to see me yesterday because he was afraid Ceasar found out." "He wanted to run, but he wanted me to come with him." " Even though he knew about you." " Yeah." "What, this guy's in love with you, right?" "That's what he tells himself, but it's not even about me." "You see, he could have run at any time, but he didn't want out." "Sounds like he wanted to get caught." "Yeah." "Maybe he did." "He would brag to me all the time." "He was never afraid of Ceasar because... he didn't know him." "Not like I do." "I used to be able to block it out." "I would just tell myself that I wasn't really there, and so... none of it really mattered." "But I can't do that any more." "I'm making the same mistake Shelly made, but now..." "I know what I want." "I want out." "I want a new life." "I see what I've been waiting for, but I can't do it alone." "I need your help, Corky." "Ceasar's gonna get the money." "He's gonna bring it..." "How much money?" "Shelly said it's over $2 million." "Yeah." "So Ceasar's going to get it." "He's going to bring it by the apartment." "He's going to count it." "He'll go through the books and figure out how Shelly did it." "Violet, do you know what you're saying?" "You're asking me to help you fuck over the Mob." "Violet, these people are serious." "You wanna know how serious, you ask your friend Shelly." "They are worse than cops because they have money and no rules." "You fuck them, you'd better do it right." "That's why I need your help." " You said you were good." " I AM good." "All right, let's just say for a moment" "I believe everything you're saying." " You think I'm lying?" " I didn't say that, but since you did, let's say you are." "It would have been easy for you to set up Shelly." "You could have had him killed knowing that Ceasar would bring the money back to the apartment." "All you'd need to keep yourself clean is someone unconnected:" "Someone like me." " Is that what you think?" " I'm just making a point." "You have no idea what you're asking, how much trust it takes 2 people to do something like this." "I mean, stealing's always been a lot like sex." "2 people who want the same thing, they get in a room." "They talk about it." "They start to plan." "It's kind of like flirting." "It's kind of like foreplay, because the more they talk about it, the wetter they get." "The only difference is, I can fuck someone I just met, but to steal," "I need to know someone like I know myself." "You think you know me like that?" "I want to see the money." " Oh, my God." " Don't worry." "It ain't mine." " Ceasar, what happened?" " It was unbelievable, Vi." "Un-fucking-believable." "Shit." "Look at this shirt." "Look at it." "It's ruined." "It all started when Shelly took us to the money." "I'll tell you something." "Mickey?" "He knows his shit." "He does." "Shelly took us right there." "So Shelly's down on his knees, right?" "And he's pulling out this money from the safe on the floor." "And I'm there, I'm standing there, and I'm looking at it, right?" "Like, "Holy fuck," and all I can think about is, "How the fuck was he able to do this?"" "When..." "Bang!" "Johnnie caps him." "He capped Shelly!" "Blood goes flying everywhere, all over me, all over the money." "I have no idea if this is even all of it." "And right then, I go through the roof, and..." "BAM!" "I punch the dumb son of a bitch." "I punch him, Vi, right in his dumb fucking face." "I didn't give a shit whose son he was." "I just wanted to hit him again, smack some sense into the dumb son of a bitch." "Look at the shit that I got to fucking deal with now." "What'll you do with it?" "I told him to run it through the cycles, but no." "Johnnie calls up the old man, and I guess he's got other plans because he wants to pick up this shit tomorrow night." " Where's the laundry detergent?" " It's in the linen cabinet." "Come to my place in the morning... early." "[Violet] You think you know me like that..." "like that..." "[Violet's voice echoes]" "[Corky] $2 million." "[Violet] You're having second thoughts." "No." "You said Ceasar washed the money?" "Yeah." "Then what, exactly?" " He hung it up." " He what?" "To let it dry." "It was unreal." "Hundreds paper-clipped everywhere like leaves." "Then, one by one, he ironed all of it." " Did he sleep?" " No, but neither did I." "All night long, I listened to that sound." " What sound?" " The sound of money." " Where is it now?" " It's in his office." "I saw it this morning." "I need to go to the store." "[Violet] It's in a case on his desk." "[Corky] Does the case lock?" " Yes." " Huh." " Tell me about Johnnie." " Johnnie?" "Yeah." "Sounds like he and Ceasar don't like each other." "Like each other?" "They hate each other." " Why?" " I don't know." "Happened long before I came around." "I think basically, Ceasar thinks Johnnie's a complete idiot, but, you know, what can you do?" "Johnnie runs Chicago 'cause Gino's his father." "Who's Gino?" "Gino Marzzone." "Marzzone." "As in Angelo Marzzone, head of the Marzzone family?" "Yeah." "That's his brother." "Shit." "Gino Marzzone's coming to your place tonight to pick up the money?" "Yeah." "And Johnnie Marzzone's his son." "That's Johnnie?" "Yeah." "Sweet Jesus." "It's perfect." "Gino Marzzone's coming to your place tonight." "This is the big deal." "Ceasar's gonna want to do it right." "He's not going to want to look like an idiot." "Has Gino ever been to your place before?" " Yeah, twice before." " What happened?" "Well, Ceasar was really nervous." "He kept cleaning the apartment." "The first time, he picked out the dress he wanted me to wear." " Did Johnnie ever hit on you?" " He hits on me all the time." "He hits on anything in high heels." "Did Ceasar ever see this?" "He does it right in front of him." "Oh, this is getting better and better." "Go on." "Well, Gino doesn't speak much English, or at least he pretends not to, so he usually gets right to the point." "Both times, they only talked for about 5 minutes." "They had a drink, and then they left." "What did Gino drink?" "Scotch." "Glenlivet." "I remember that because Ceasar made a big deal about it." "All right." "I've an idea how to make this work." "[Corky] Go back and get ready." "Take your time." "Make it real." "What time did you say they'd be there?" "[Violet] The plane gets in at 7:00, so..." "I'd say around 8:00." "[Corky] All right." "Now, at some point, Ceasar's going to quit," "I guess some time around 6:00, making sure he's got time to get ready." "As soon as he's done you'll be right there to put a big drink in his hand." "[Ceasar] Unbelievable what this guy Shelly did." "I'll tell you, Shelly's one smart-ass motherfucker." "I mean, he WAS one smart-ass motherfucker." "Poor boy has to work so hard." "[Violet moans]" "[Corky] We want him to relax, unwind." "You look good enough to eat." "[Violet] Where will you be?" "[Corky] I'll be waiting in the apartment next door." "Waiting for what?" "For the shower." "That's gonna be our signal." "When he's done with his shower, you'll go to the bar." "You'll get out the Scotch that Gino drinks." "As you do, the bottle will slip from your hands:" "An accident." "[Ceasar] Vi, what the hell was that?" "Vi, you can't hear me?" "Oh, fuck!" "It slipped." "I was trying to get ready." "How the fuck did you do that?" "Ceasar, it was an accident." "I didn't mean to." " I'll get some more." " There's no fucking time!" "Don't be silly." "There's lots of time." "I'll clean this up, and I'll be back" " before you're even dressed." " Ah, fuck, Vi!" "[Corky] When you open the door, I'll be there." " What if he sees you?" " He won't." "You can't know for certain that he won't see you." " Trust me." " I'm just asking, what if?" "If he does... then I won't have a choice, will I?" "When I'm inside, I'll get the money." "I'm going to need something to fill the case." "Hide it near the desk." "And at that point..." "There's no turning back." "When I get the Scotch, how do I know you won't just take off?" "The same way I'll know that you got the Scotch:" "Trust." "I still don't see how I'll get away clean with all the money in the apartment." "Everyone's gonna think I took it." " Not Ceasar." " Why?" "Because of what you're gonna tell him." "You gotta be as real as you can." "When you walk through that door with the Scotch in your hand, you'll be covered." "That moment's the most important moment of the plan." "If you're real enough, he's gonna believe you 'cause deep down, he'll want to." "Cea!" "Shit." "I'm sorry." "They were early." " What are you talking about?" " They just left, didn't they?" " What are you, drunk?" " They weren't just up here?" " No." "They're on their way." " That doesn't make any sense." "Why?" "Well, I just saw Johnnie downstairs." " What?" " Yeah." "I got out of my car and saw him in his BMW." "Nah, it couldn't have been." "It was him, Ceasar." "I'm positive." " Vi, that's impossible." " Ceasar, I know Johnnie." "It was him." "I screamed when I saw him." "I couldn't believe I missed them." "I knew you were going to be upset, so I thought I'd apologise and give Gino the Scotch." "I honked a few times, but he didn't hear me and didn't stop." "But..." "Gino's plane doesn't get here for another half-hour." "Actually, I didn't see Gino in the car." "[Corky] If Ceasar hates Johnnie as much as you say, the second he opens the case, he's gonna know in his gut that Johnnie just fucked him." "He'll have no choice." "He can't go after Gino or Johnnie." "There's only one way out." "He'll have to run." "And if he runs, everyone will assume he took the money." "You'll be clean, and we'll be rich." "[Violet] Jesus, that's beautiful." "If you're this goddamn smart, how did you ever get caught?" "I had a partner once." "She fucked me." " I won't." " I think we're gonna find out." " Oh, God..." " Ceasar?" "Cea?" "Oh, no." "Oh!" "Oh, God." "Ahhh..." "Vi..." " Vi, I've been set up." " Johnnie?" "That fuck." "That rat fuck!" "That motherless rat fuck!" "Why?" "Why would Johnnie do this?" "Jesus Christ, Violet, open your fucking eyes." "Johnnie hates me as much as I hate him." "I hate that motherless rat fucker." "I hate him." "I fucking hate him." "I hate him." " But you know he did it." " Yeah, so what?" "Violet, so fucking what?" "Look, the money is gone, right?" "Gino's coming to get it." "Now, do you think Gino is going to believe me when I tell him his little rat-fuck son stole it?" "Is that what you think?" "Because I don't." "You know what I think?" "I think I'm a dead man." "I'm one in the back of the head." "That's what I think." "Ceasar, what are we going to do?" "Well, I know what Johnnie wants me to do." "Johnnie wants me to run." "He wants me out of here." "But if I run, then everybody thinks I fucking did it, and he gets away with 2 million clean." "I can see him right now, on the way to get Gino, laughing at me." "Laughing at me." "Laughing at me!" "Laughing at me!" "Laughing at me!" "Fucking laughing at me!" " Cea, Cea..." " Don't, Violet, please." "Don't touch me, OK?" "I gotta think." "I gotta fucking think this through!" " Ceasar..." " No." "No, Vi." "I think we should run." "We should go." "We have to go now before it's too late." "No, please, Violet, leave me alone!" "Please!" "All right?" "Just leave me the fuck alone!" "All right, Ceasar." "I-I-I just, I got to think." "That's all." "I-I-I just got to think." "[Dial tone]" "[Beeping]" "[Swooping noise]" "[Telephone rings]" " It's me." " What happened?" "He totally freaked out." "I've never seen him like this." "He's out of his fucking mind." "[Corky] All right, as long as he believes it was Johnnie." "Believes it?" "Jesus." "It's driving him crazy." "He wants to kill him." "I don't know, Corky." "I don't know." "I'm getting nervous." "I'm getting really nervous." "I don't know what he's gonna do." "It's all right, Violet." "It's working." "All we gotta do is wait him out and see what he does." "[Violet] What if he doesn't run?" "That means he'll probably kill Johnnie." "[Violet] Oh, Christ." "I have to get out of here." "Listen." "If he doesn't run, all you gotta do is break down." "Go into the bedroom and pack some things." "Start crying." "Tell him you love him, but you can't take it." "You're sorry, but you gotta leave." "Just walk out." "All right." "OK." "[Corky] We're almost there." "Just hang on." "[Footsteps]" "He's coming." "I got it." "I know what I have to do." " I have to get the money back." " The money?" "The money's gone." "No, no, no." "Johnnie's got it." "I gotta get it back." "But it could be anywhere." "There's not enough time, Violet." "Johnnie's picking up Gino at the airport, right?" "[Muffled] That means he's probably got the money with him." "He's probably got it in the car." "He didn't see you, did he?" " No." " Good." "That's good." "So that means I got the edge." "He doesn't know I know." "That's why he put the paper in the case." "He wants me to hand it to Gino." "Then there's no doubt I did it." "Gino will put a bullet in me himself." "But that's not gonna happen." "That jackoff's not gonna set me up." "No way, not like this." "This is insane." "What are you doing?" "I'm leaving." "I don't want any part of this shit." "I don't wanna be involved." " You can't leave." " The hell I can't." "I need you." "You don't need me." "You've never needed me." "I can't help you." "Understand?" "I can't let you leave, Violet." "If you're not with me I assume you're against me." "Ceasar, this is crazy." "Maybe it is, maybe it isn't." "Maybe you dropped that bottle of Scotch by accident." "Maybe you didn't." "It would have been so easy to let him in as you left." "You can't believe that." "I've seen the way he looks at you." "He's always wanted you." "Maybe 2 million bucks finally bought you." "I'm sorry, Violet." "I want to trust you." "I hope you understand." "I don't have any other choice." "You sure you don't want a drink?" "[Jew's harp twangs]" "[Doorbell buzzes]" "Hello?" " Yeah, we're here." " Hey, Johnnie." " Open the fucking door." " Sure." "Come on up." "Gino." "Good to see you." "Vi, look who's here." " Hello, Gino." "How are you?" " Che bella." " You shouldn't have hit me." " You wanna get into this now?" "No, Ceasar, not now." "Hah!" "Ha ha!" "You are as radiant as ever, Violet." "Gino, Glenlivet, right?" "And I'll have whatever Violet's drinking." " I'm not drinking." " Well, neither will I." "No, I'll have a Tanqueray and tonic." "Mmm." "Ceasar, 2 T-and-Ts." "[Ice rattling]" "Salute, huh?" "Roy, Pop, Violet, Ceasar." "[Gino] No, no, son." "No, Johnnie, no." " I gotta make a bet." " No goddamn phone." "Not now." "Cesare, come and sit." "We're going to talk now." "Johnnie, you, too." "No, no, no." "Cesare, look at me." "Johnnie said to me what happened." "Cesare, you got to do me a favour." "A personal favour for me, huh?" "You got to start respecting Johnnie the way you respect me." "Capisce?" "Good." "Good." "And you, Johnnie, you got to stop acting stupid." "You gotta earn this respect that Cesare's gonna give." "Capisce?" "Good." "Done." "Now..." "Where is my money?" "We know how this was done, eh?" "Yeah." "I know." " And it won't happen again, eh?" " No." "Good." "Done." "We go now." "Wait a minute, Pop." "Jesus Christ." "You got 2 hours till your plane leaves." "[Gino] Che minchia stai facendo?" "So just relax." "Have a drink." "Stronzo." "Cesare, ancora del Glenlivet." "So, Ceasar, tell me something." "What did it total out at?" " 2.176." " Unbelievable." " Can you believe that, Violet?" " Johnnie..." "Come on." "I just want to know one thing." "Just one thing after he made such a big deal about it." "I bet it wasn't such a big deal, huh, Ceasar?" " What's that, Johnnie?" " The money." "I bet it wasn't nothing to make it clean after you made such a big fucking deal about it." "[Gino] What did I tell you?" "It's important to me." "It's a simple question." "If he'd just answer, that's the end of it." "Where's this going, Johnnie?" "Just admit it." " Admit what?" " That you overreacted." "YOU lost it." "Not me." "It was YOUR mistake." "You want to play it this way?" "I can play it this way." "You want to know who made a mistake?" "Open the case." " Ceasar..." " Shut up, Violet." "This is between me and Johnnie." "You want to do this now?" "[Ceasar] Let's do it." "Open the fucking case." "Open the case." " Where's the fucking key?" " You don't need a key." "Then how the fuck can I open it?" " The same way you did before." " What are you talking about?" "All right, Johnnie." "Violet?" "Get me another drink." "What is this?" "Don't." "Don't you fucking move." "[Gino speaks Italian]" " Where is it, fuckface?" " Where's what?" "The money!" "OK, Ceasar, I don't know what you're thinking here," " if you don't put the gun..." " Sit down." "[Gino] Ceasar, what is it?" "Gino, your son stole this money to set me up." "He fucking stole it, and I can prove it." "Violet, tell them." "Tell them!" "For God's sake, Johnnie, do what he says." "For Christ's sake..." "This isn't happening." "Son of a..." "The next one blows off your fucking dick." "I'm looking at a dead man." "You're a fucking dead man." "Enough!" " Basta!" " Gino, don't." "You point the gun at me?" "You know who I am?" "I'm Gino Marzzoni, capisce?" "Non essere stupido." "Dammi la pistola." " No, Gino, please." " Dammi la pistola." "Gino, sit down." "We're... we're family, Cesare." "Your family, Ceasar." "Family." "Now..." "Give it to me." "Good man." "[Gunshot]" "[Screams]" "Don't shoot." "[Heavy thud]" "[Pistol dry-firing]" "I had to do it, Violet." "You saw it." "I had no choice." "It was Johnnie." "Lying rat-fuck." "He made me do it." "Hey!" "Hey!" "You stupid fuck!" "You think you could set me up, huh?" "I'm a dead man, Johnnie?" "I'm a fucking dead man?" "Guess again, Johnnie." "Who's the dead man?" "Who?" "Who's dead, fuckface?" "Who?" "Who?" "I can't hear you, Johnnie." "Guess again." "Take another guess, Johnnie." "Take another fucking guess." "What are you doing?" "Maybe 3 hours." "Ceasar, what are you going to do?" "What do you think?" "We're going to get the money back." " What?" " If we get the money back then none of this ever happened." "Ceasar, you just killed Gino Marzzone." "No, I didn't." "Not if the bodies disappear, not if the money's here." "Then they never showed up." "What happened to them?" "I don't know." "Maybe we'll never know." "My guess?" "It was a job." "Maybe the Carpellas." "All part of the business." "Look." "Once we find the money, then everything's gonna be all right." "[Police siren wailing]" "[Whispers] Somebody's called them." " Fuck!" " Oh, no." "Fuck." "Ceasar, what are we gonna do?" "They're just cops." "Stall them as long as you can." "[Grunting]" "Gino, man..." "[Muffled noises through wall]" "[Ceasar, muffled] Come on." "[Thud]" "[Doorbell buzzes]" "Answer it." "[Buzz]" " Hello?" " This is the police, ma'am." " The police?" " We had a report of gunfire." " Gunfire?" "Is this a joke?" " No joke, ma'am." "Please open the door." "Um..." "How do I know that you're really the police?" "Ma'am, you have to open the door." "All right." "[TV blaring]" "[Gunshots from TV]" "[Knock on door]" "Now, if you're thinking about doing something stupid, remember..." "I just killed Gino Marzzone." "You understand what that means?" "They're just cops." "See?" "We're for real." "I'm sorry." "It's just that sometimes you hear stories." "You did the right thing." "Come on in." "Hey, hey." "Chicago's finest." " How's it going tonight?" " Pretty good, sir." "I'm sorry." "Got a bum ear." "Can't hear shit with it." "My name is Ceasar, and this here's my Violet." "So Violet tells me there's some problems about gunshots?" "Yes, sir." "A neighbour in the building called in." " I think we know what happened." " Probably just the television." "Oh, the television." "Honey, why don't you turn it off?" "[Screaming from TV]" "This happened before." "This ear, I was born with it." "Today, the batteries went dead on my hearing aid." "I'm sorry." " It's all right, sir." " No big deal." "I hate to trouble you guys." "Can I get you a beer or something?" "No, not on duty." "Sorry." "But, uh, you mind if I use your bathroom?" "No." "Sure." "It's right over here." "Thanks." "Listen, you mind if I make myself a drink?" " Yeah, right there." " Sure, go right ahead, sir." "Ahem." "[Zipper]" "[Splashing]" "[Policeman grunts]" " This is a beautiful place." " Thank you." "[Squish]" "Is this a condo?" "[Toilet flushing]" "OK, let's roll." "Oh, try to keep extra batteries around for the aid, OK?" "Good idea." "[Door closes]" "[Ceasar, muffled] Come on, let's go." "[Door closes]" "[Whispers] Shit." "Fuck!" "Where is it?" "Where is it?" "Think." "It's got to be at his place." "Get in the car." " Ceasar, I don't think..." " Get in the fucking car." "[Tyres squealing]" "$2 million, Corky." "[Ceasar] $2 million." "It's gotta be here." "It's gotta be." "I just..." "I got to think." "Think like Johnnie." "OK, I'm Johnnie." "I come in..." "Where did I put it?" "It's a lot of fucking money, and I got to hide it." "I got to hide it." "I don't have much time." "I got to get to the airport, pick up my fucking daddy!" ""I can't wait to see Ceasar's face when he finds out."" " Where did he put it?" " Cea..." "Think." "Think." "Where is it, you motherfucker?" "!" "Where?" "Where?" "[Crying]" "Cea?" "Cea." "It's not here, Ceasar." " Where is it?" " I don't know." "It could be anywhere." "We don't even know if he was alone, Ceasar." "Come on." "We have to get out of here." "We don't have much time." "[Telephone beeping]" "What are you doing?" "Got to buy more time." "More time." "Who are you going to call?" "[Telephone ringing at other end]" " Yeah?" " Hey, Mickey?" "[Whispers] Oh, God." "[Mickey] Ceasar, what the fuck time is it?" "Oh, Mickey, I wake you up?" "Listen, I'm sorry." "I know it's late." "Look, I don't know if this is a big deal," " but they ain't showed up yet." " What?" "They ain't there?" "No." "I called the airport." "The plane landed on time." "I even called over at Johnnie's house, but there's no answer." "[Mickey] OK." "Let me call around." "I'll see what I can do." " Don't go anywhere, OK?" " OK, sure." "[Mickey] Ceasar, you still have the money?" "Oh, yeah, Mickey." "I still got the money." "Staring right at it." "[Mickey] Good." "Sit tight." "I'll call you." "[Ceasar] Bye." "I'll start packing." "You know what you have to do." "I'll use Johnnie's car to dump the bodies in the lake." "I need plastic bags and rope and tape." "Just hurry." "[Telephone ringing on other end]" "Please, Corky, please." " Oh, thank God." " I'm still here." "I was so afraid you were going to leave me." "You don't quit on me, Violet, I won't quit on you." "Corky, it worked." "He's going to run." "He needs to take care of the bodies to buy himself time, but as soon as he leaves it's over." "Just a little while longer." "Corky..." "I want to tell you something." "I know, Violet." "I know." "It's why I'm still here." "Who was that?" "Vi, who the fuck was that?" "Did you call Mickey?" "Did you call Mickey?" "Did you?" "!" "[Beeping]" "[Ring]" "Mickey?" "That you?" "Fuck." "[Telephone rings]" "[Ring]" "Who is that?" "Who's over there?" "Who's over there?" "Tell me!" " Tell me!" " No!" "God!" "No!" "Please don't!" "Please don't!" "Aah!" "[Violet screams]" "No!" "No!" "No, Ceasar!" "[Door lock clicking]" "Aah!" "Drop the fucking gun or die." "Drop it!" "Turn around." "You?" "Holy fucking Christ." "You gotta be fucking kidding me." "[Ceasar's voice] You gotta be fucking kidding me." "[Sound of blow]" "[Ceasar] Hey." "Come on." "Wake up." "Wake up." "Wake up." "Wake up, you fucking dyke." "Good." "I know everything now." "I don't wanna hear any l-don't-know bullshit." "God." "I should have seen this coming the minute I met you." "Everybody knows your kind can't be trusted." "Fucking queers." "You make me sick." "But you made a fatal mistake." "You tried to fuck the wrong guy, and I swear to you," "I'm gonna kill you for it." "Where's my money?" " Don't tell him." " Shut up, Violet." " He can't kill you." " Violet!" "Not till he has the money." "Now." "Where is it?" "Lick me." "Where... is... my... money?" "Either pull the trigger or get that thing out of my face." "Fucking cunt." "Ceasar, stop acting like an asshole and think." "Violet, don't try to tell me what to do." "You need the money just like we do." "Why don't you let us go?" "We'll make a deal." "Shut the fuck up!" "What?" "What?" "What?" "What did you do to her, huh?" "What did you fucking do to her?" "That's not MY Violet." " What did she do to you?" " Everything you couldn't." "You ungrateful fucking bitch!" "Vi, you were nothing before you met me!" "Don't you remember you had nothing?" "Who gave you this place, huh?" "Who gave it to you?" "I did, Vi." "I did." "You were nothing." "You had nothing." "What a load of crap." "Take a look at yourself, Ceasar." "You're nothing but a common thug." "You launder money for the Mob." "You rent women like you rented this apartment." "You used me, Ceasar." "Just like I used you." "All part of the business." "You betrayed me." "You murdered Gino!" "Yeah." "Sure." "You made me." "I had to do that." "Bullshit." "You did it." "Because you couldn't stand the thought of Johnnie fucking you." " Shut up." " YOU shut up." "All right, Violet." "All right." "You want the business, Violet?" "All of the business?" "I'll fucking give it to you." "I'll give you all of it." "I'm going to make you fucking suffer, just like Shelly, Violet." "Just like fucking Shelly." "I'm sorry, Corky." "Don't be sorry." "Help me." "Oh, no, no, no!" "Hey, Violet, you remember these?" "All right." "I'm going to start with Violet..." "[Moans]" "So you get an idea of what's coming." "I'm gonna ask you 10 questions." "Every time I don't get an answer..." "[Violet moans]" "I cut off a finger." "[Violet moaning]" "Where's the money?" "[Doorbell buzzes]" "It's Mickey." "I said, where's the money?" "[Violet screams]" "All right." "I'll tell you." "It's in the apartment next door." " I put it in the paint drums." " Good." "Now, I promised you I would kill you." "Remember?" " You can't kill me." " Oh, really?" "Why not?" "I could be lying." "You're gonna be sorry you said that." "[Elevator dings]" "[Elevator doors opening]" "Fuck!" "Son of a bitch." "Keys." "Keys." "Keys." "Keys." "[Jingle]" "[Beeps]" "[Violet moaning]" "[Knocking on door]" "[Water running]" "I can kill you right now if that's what you want, or you can live, but I need your help." "Help me make Mickey believe that everything's normal." "Now, what do you want to do?" "You want to live?" "[Clicking]" "[Clicking]" "Ho!" "Oh, shit!" "Christ, Mickey." "You scared the shit out of me." "What are you guys doing with your peckers in your hand?" "You going to do me, Mickey?" "No, Cease." "There was no answer." "I thought I heard some knocking at the door." "I was buzzing, I was knocking." "I guess you couldn't hear me on account of being in the shower." "You know, Mick, I'm all wound up." "I'm driving myself crazy over this Gino thing, and, well, Vi, you know, she thought maybe, uh... she could, uh, you know, relax me in the..." "That Violet is one nice lady." "I wish someone would help ME relax." "Uh..." "let me get you guys a drink, huh?" "[Ceasar] I got Scotch, bourbon, vodka..." "Whatever you want." "[Ice tinkling]" "We was worried about you, Cease." "Me?" "Why?" "We went over to Johnnie's place just to check it out." " It was busted up... bad." " What?" "I started thinking, maybe it's about the money." "So I call you, but all I get is the busy signal." "I figure the phone is off the hook." "That's why I rushed here." "The phone." "Shit." "That was me." "I did that." "Fuck!" "That was a stupid thing to do, eh?" "Hey, if Violet was helping me relax," "I'd probably do the same thing." "[Water running]" "[Water shuts off]" " Can I ask you something?" " Sure." "Why did you move all the furniture around?" "Let me guess." "That was Violet's idea, too." "Ha ha ha!" "Yeah, actually, she was nervous about Gino coming, wanted everything to look perfect, and, uh..." " You know women, Mick." " Sure, Cease." "They make us do stupid things, don't they?" " Is that the money?" " Yeah, that's it." " What did it total out at?" " 2.176." "That fucking Shelly." "Gotta hand it to the guy, but if I were him," "I would've bailed a long time ago." "[Mickey] I mean, how much money does a man need?" "I remember I was just staring at all this goddamn money," "Shelly down on his knees, and the next thing I know," "Johnnie just blows his head off." "What a fucking mess." "Johnnie's laughing his ass off, and that's when Ceasar lost it, and boom, he cold-cocked him." "He cold-cocks fucking Johnnie Marzzone." "Heee-eeey, Ceasar." "Where's the key?" "Um... the key, uh..." "Oh." "They're in my pants in the bathroom." "Ah, fuck it." "I don't need the key." "I didn't need a key to get in here, did I?" "[Gulps]" "[Ceasar's heart beating fast]" "[Telephone rings]" "Who the hell could that be?" "[Ring]" "Are you gonna answer it?" "Yeah." " Hello?" " [Violet] Hello, this is Gino." "What?" "You're blowing your only chance, asshole." "Act like I'm Gino." "Holy, Christ, we've been worried sick about you, Gino!" " [Violet] Good boy." " It's Gino." " Where the hell is he?" " We were in a car accident..." "[Ceasar] They were in a car accident." "But everybody's all right." "Everybody's all right, just bruises and shit." "Un-fucking-believable." "I called those highway patrol dumb fucks." " I'm trying to hear Gino." " Listen to me, asshole." "I know your gun is behind the bar." "Either we make a deal, or I hand this phone to Mickey." " I'm listening." " All right." "I want what's mine." "I want half the money." "We get rid of Mickey, and no one else dies." "No one." " Say, "Yes, I understand."" " Yes, I understand." "Say I'm at St. Mary's, off the Kennedy, in the waiting room." "Stay on the phone until I come out." "OK." "Right." "St. Mary's, off the Kennedy." "Yeah." "Johnnie's OK?" "Mickey, what are you doing here?" "Violet, it's Gino and Johnnie." "They were in a car accident." "Oh, my God." "Is everybody all right?" "Everything's OK." "Bye." "They're at St. Mary's." "Can you fucking believe this?" "I can't fit them all in my car." "Give me your keys." "Sure." "Vi." "Vi." "Vi!" "Do me a favour." "Go in the bathroom and get my keys, OK?" "Come on, let's go." "Vi, let's go!" "Thanks, V." "Call me as soon as you get them, eh?" "Leave your phone on the hook." "Now, that's teamwork." "I should have let him kill you." " He would have done you, too." " I knew I couldn't trust you." "Relax." "I said I would let you live, and I will... maybe." "Let's go see if your dyke was dumb enough to lie." "Let's go." "Yes." "No!" "Violet!" "Violet!" "Violet!" "Violet!" "Please!" "[Elevator dings]" "Oh..." "Aah!" "Bitch." "You fucking bitch!" "[Violet gasping]" "[Telephone rings]" " Mickey?" " Violet?" "Oh, God, Mickey, he made me do it." "I was so afraid!" "I didn't want to, Mickey." "It was Ceasar, all Ceasar." "He made me help him." "You have to help me." "Oh, God!" "Oh, God, he's coming!" "Corky." "[Ceasar] Oh, fuck!" "Stop." "Oh, for Chrissakes!" "It's over, Ceasar." "I called Mickey." "He's on his way." "Get out of here, Ceasar." "If you want to live, you better start running." "All these years, Vi, and you still don't know me..." " But I know you." " Ceasar, don't." "What are you going to do with that, Vi?" "Shoot me?" "Kill me in cold blood?" "I don't think so." "If you were going to shoot me, Vi, you'd have done it a long time ago." "If I were you, I'd have shot me the minute I brought the money back to the apartment, but you didn't, and I'll tell you why." "You don't want to shoot me, Vi." "Do you?" "Do you?" "I know you don't." "Ceasar, you don't know shit." "[Violet] I'll never understand it, Mickey." "You didn't even call the police." "I told you." "The family doesn't want the police around." "We want to take care of it ourselves and we will." "I'll find him." " I swear I will." " I know you will." "Sure you're going to be OK?" "I mean..." "If you're having second thoughts, my offer still stands." "Thanks, Mickey, but..." "I have to get out." "You know, I have to get away from all this." "But thanks." "Thanks for everything." "[Footsteps]" " Hey." " Hey." " So, how'd it go?" " I'm here, aren't I?" "[Alarm beeps]" "Well, I thought we might need a getaway car." "Hmm." "[Engine starts]" "You know what the difference is between me and you, Violet?" "No." "Me, neither."
