You know what you should do?

You should calm down.

We're all on the same team here.

Aren't we?

oh yes, Dan.

The same team.

Sir, here's the situation.

An unknown number of perps have

taken 4 bank employees hostage.

So far, they've not made any

demands. I think they were...

- taken by surprise...

- What's your name?

officer Richard o'Malley, sir.

officer o'Malley,

what's that in your hand?

Sir?

What is that you have in your hand?

- Is it yours?

- No, sir.

- I was getting it for the Lieutenant.

- Well, officer o'Malley,

if nobody here has enough respect for you,

other than to have you fetch coffee forthem,

what gives you the idea that

I would give a sh*t...

what you think about the situation?

Tell Tinnetti to order the recon.

I need to see

what's going on in there.

Thanks, Richie.

Hurry up.

C'mon, hurry up!

Fill it up!

Hey look. You're gonna make it

outta here, okay? okay?

I promise.

Forgive me if I don't share

your confidence, alright.

Last time I checked, money was a

pretty good reason for getting killed.

I happen to be...

in a pretty good position

to keep my promise, okay.

Besides...

- ... it's number 2.

- Sorry?

Money. It's the number 2

reason people kill each other.

Crimes of passion, number 1.

So, hey, you got that going foryou.

So why you doing this, huh?

- What?

- Why?

Look at it! Ha!

C'mon, you build a doorthat strong,

somebody's going to wonder

what's behind it. It's just a matter

of time before someone like me

- comes along to knock it down.

- It's worth the risks then?

What? You've never thought about it?

Huh?

You're a bank manager.

Whaddya make?

50, 60 ka year, max? Right?

- Yeah.

- Every night you close the door...

on a hundred times that.

one of these stacks

just one, could change...

your whole life, right?

Yeah, well you know,

I got a few things in the works.

I don't believe in taking shortcuts.

Besides, there's procedures...

and security.

- You've thought about it.

- Come on, I can tell.

- I can tell.

- Well...

I'm human, you know. I got

dreams like anybody else.

Hey, Barnes...

okay, what would you do with the cash?

I mean, what would you do

with it, man?

- What would I do?

- Yeah.

I'd travel.

I'd... You know,

I'd see the world.

I'd, you know...

... sip wine on the Riviera,

dip my toe in the Nile.

Yeah, with a really fine

looking piece of ass, huh?

- That'd be nice.

- okay,

so why don't you do it?

I can't.

I can't go anywhere now.

My... My mom is sick.

Hey come on.

Come on, take one.

- No no.

- Come on, it's on me.

I can't. I can't.

It's on me.

I won't tell.

I promise. Alright.

You take yourtrip.

At this time, we cannot tell whether

or not the thieves have actually...

...made any demands.

We have no indications...

- Looks like something's up.

- Why do you say that?

Look behind the reporter here.

That guy is the tactical

officer in command.

There used to be a bunch of guys

around him. Where are they now?

- Where are you going?

- Down.

They're gonna try to access this area...

from the building next door.

The basement.

How do you know that?

'Cause it's what I do.

Police cannot confirm yet

who the suspects might be...

but we will have details for

you as they become available...

through the night.

Lori Graham reporting live...

for Channel 12 News.

Now back to the studio.

oh, that sounds like a great idea.

Standard procedure.

What we gotta do is run a video feed...

down through a vent or up through...

a f***in' floorboard or whatever.

We gotta get eyes in there.

Sh*t, we don't even know for

sure how many prople they got!

You didn't think

to ask 'em, did you?

F*** you.

Ah! oh!

Ah!

What's going on?

Sir! Shots fired!

- What's happening?

- Come on, let's go!

Let's move! Move!

Go, God damnit, go!

Ah! oh!

God damnit! Get this f***in'

thing working now!

- Voodoo! Voodoo!

- What is your status?

What is the status

of yourteam, voodoo?

Come in voodoo!

What the hell is going on here?

Does anybody have contact

- with the team?

- We got picture!

Looks like you got some...

... officers down.

- Can anyone tell me anything?

- Archer...

- Anyone?

- Archer!

You. This is the first time you've

been speechless all f***ing day.

Archer!

For Christ's sake, man,

give it a break.

Now listen, I got a man...

- on the inside.

- What?

- Don't "what" me.

- I got a man inside.

- I'm just not sure.

- You're just not sure "what?"

Whether he's on the inside

or whether he's on the job?

- oh for...

- So this is what it's about!

Tell me how this could happen.

Did I miss a memo?

- F*** you and your memos!

- Are undercover officers...

now supposed to be participating

in f***ing robberies?!

- You sanctimonious son of a--

- You held out on me!

This is all on your head!

It's alright, Richie.

F***.

Sir, had you let me finish

before, I would have told you...

that undercover officer Seth

George might be on the inside...

working against direct orders.

Beautiful.

Just beautiful.

Now we have rogue cop

loose on the inside.

Ah, I see you decided

to grace us with your presence.

I thought I'd check it out.

- This is Junior.

- Hey.

- He's from Vegas too.

- You from Vegas?

- You know,

- I did some work there.

On whose crew?

Seth did some work there

with Slim Tony.

- oh, no sh*t?

- I did some work with Slim.

Yeah, a lot of work with Slim,

all those boys.

I ain't never seen you before though. I

neverforget a face. When were you there?

You know Franky, right?

How 'bout Jimmy?

You know him? He's got

this big mole right here.

- Hey! You wanna f*** me?

- I got Kaboom. I got Lenny.

- Excuse me?

- Do you wanna f*** me?

I mean, what's with

all the foreplay here?

I've worked with Slim Tony and

a lot of other guys and no one,

not one of them has ever asked

me this many f***ing questions.

Look, let's get something straight.

I don't wanna be yourfriend.

I don't wanna be your confidante and I

sure as sh*t do not wanna be your b*tch.

So I'm gonna ask you

one more time...

Do you wanna f*** me?

- Well, no.

- Why not?

- I'm kinda cute.

- No? Good. Go on.

You will be paid $50,000...

plus whateveryou can carry

to rob a bank.

I got a question.

Who robs banks? Who robs f***ing

banks these days?

Dye packs, marked bills,

video cameras.

I mean, the only people robbing

banks are dumbfuck...

stick-up men who get nabbed because,

you know, the car doesn't start,

they lost their keys. And there's the

problem of it being a federal offence.

Don't get me wrong, I mean,

but my liquor store days?

- They're behind me.

- I'm afraid you got it all backwards.

You gotta read between the lines.

Banks are told to hand it over,

plain and simple.

Don't get cute.

Too many of those

bad motherfuckers

sticking guns in people's faces

on those reality TV shows.

Gas stations...

...convenience stores.

You can walk into a bank

with yourfinger stuck in your pocket...

and the tellers
