will sh*t themselves.

- This gentleman is Lukas.

- Hi Lukas.

- How are you?

- Let's just say he's the consultant

on this one. Rest assured

he's forgotten

more about robbing banks

than we will ever know.

He'll also be supplying us with

any and all necessary equipment.

You got any special requests,

you need to take it up with him.

What did you mean when you

said we get to keep

- whatever we carry out?

- What do you think that means?

okay, so why you going in?

You're being paid enough not

to ask those questions. okay?

Now let's get down to it.

Gentlemen, this is the target.

It's an old historical site,

which means the building...

has not been significantly altered

since Christ was a cowboy.

- Where is it?

- You will find that out...

when you walk through the doors...

and not a moment sooner.

Now if you'll notice, there's nothing

significant about these plans.

Here we have

the city subway plans.

Once again, you'll notice

nothing significant here.

Except that when I combine

the 2 sets of plans,

there's a very

interesting development.

You'll see that there's

an old maintenance shaft...

directly underthe building.

Now it's not marked

on the bank's plans.

The bank is not marked

on the subway plans,

yet when combined...

The simplest solution

is the oft most overlooked.

Let me get this straight, you

want me to walk into a bank

with a f***ing shotgun hoping

that there is some doorthere?

No. You're being paid...

to walk into a bank...

and count on some door being there.

I am giving you enough money...

that if I tell you Elvis is in

the vault, you'll believe me.

- Can we continue?

- Continue.

Great. So when we go in,

there will be 2 guards,

3 tellers, 1 bank manager.

- How do I know that?

- How do I know that--

Well I suppose you'll just

have to trust me on this, okay?

Well this isn't exactly

a trust kinda business, is it?

- When we take the hostages--

- Hostages?!

- We're gonna--

- I'm sorry. Jesus!

I mean, hostages are part of the plan?

No no no. Where I come from,

hostages are plan B.

You know, improvise

when the sh*t hits the fan.

What the f*** are you guys into?

I mean, whatever happened

to the ol' in/out?

Sh*t man, I don't know.

I didn't sign on

to doing any killing.

I'm talking about leverage.

What are you talking about?

I'm... I'm...

Uh...

No, this is too much.

This is too much.

I mean, what the f***!

- Sh*t man,

- what took you so long?

That little f***ing prick

was getting on my nerves.

All goes well,

they'll be no killing.

Well, no more killing... anyway.

I liked him.

Taking a chance meeting me downtown.

What's with all the dramatics?

- A church?

- It's over.

I'm really flattered

you came all the way down here

to break up with me and all, but...

you could'a done it on the phone

or my answering machine...

- ...like all those other broads.

- The job, the f***in' op, it's over.

Just got word the L is pulling you out.

He is shutting it down.

You're shittin' me, right?

- He doesn't even know I'm here.

- When?

As far as I know, it's already over.

- What are you not telling me?

- Hey Curtis,

- what are you not telling me?

- Nothing.

- Come on, Curtis, it's me.

- It's me, come on.

Internal Affairs.

okay, what about 'em?

They've been coming around

the office asking questions.

- What kinda questions?

- Questions about you.

You know, what kind of person

you are, general bullshit stuff.

They want me to come in

for an interview tomorrow.

They wanna know if...

you're on the take. I told 'em

no. I told 'em to go to hell,

I want to see a f***in' lawyer.

I'm just scared what I'm telling

them by saying nothing.

You know what I mean?

Curtis, Curtis.

You haven't done anything wrong.

I don't know

if they'll see it that way.

You know...

You know money's been tight lately.

Beth's been threatening

to get a job.

I can't even take care

of my own family.

I get suspended here, I'm f***ed!

You know?

Stop it. Come on. Listen to me.

This is for you, not for me.

You look out foryourself.

You look out for number 1.

okay? 'Cause that's what I'd do.

Alright?

Move over.

It's gonna be okay.

It's gonna be okay.

Meet with them.

Tell them whateverthe f***

they want to know. No...

... tell 'em the truth...

'cause you're a shitty liar.

So what are you going to do?

I don't know.

- Seth?

- What? No.

Come on, no lectures, not now, okay.

Come on, Curtis. Look, man,

I know what I'm doing.

I am razor...

f***ing sharp!

I am on top of it, man!

I am on top of it.

I was going to ask you for a cigarette.

Ha! Ha! Ha!

Hey f*** off, alright.

- You be careful.

- Yeah.

And I thought I had the day off.

Somebody die?

Not yet.

I almost shot you, Sophie.

Where's Cisco? Ain't he supposed

to jump on me right about now?

- No, not this time.

- Yeah?

Anything good in my medecine cabinet?

What is it?

What's going on?

Why have you not asked me

what it is I'm after?

- What do you mean?

- It seems like a natural question to me.

I mean, I would want to know.

Well, questions can be very

dangerous in this line of work.

You're the first criminal

I've ever met that doesn't care

about the fruits of his labor,

...that doesn't want

to increase his share.

Yeah? Well I'm not greedy.

I don't think I've ever met

any criminal like you.

The only thing more dangerous

than your questions...

are my answers,

...and I haven't asked you

what we're going after...

because I don't want to know.

I mean it.

I don't want to know.

You know, for me...

... it's never been about this job.

You get fired?

Yup.

Here you go.

I'll get it.

Curtis?

Curtis!

Curtis!

I gotta go.

Why don't we both go?

Get the f*** outta Dodge?

Cut loose from all this sh*t?

- Whaddya say?

- Where would we go?

I don't know.

Um...

Um... Definitely...

... somewhere hot

so you wouldn't

have to wear any clothes.

- Indonesia.

- Too unstable.

Hey...

- ... the Riviera.

- Mmm...

French or Italian?

- There's two?

- Ha!

Ha! Ha! Flip a coin.

It's too expensive.

You know, there's always going to be...

some reason not to go, Sophie.

You know, the big gig,

you know, the easy job, the big score.

The plan's been set

into motion, Seth.

Stop it then. Aren't you tired

of all this bullshit?

I am.

Sophie...

Sophie...

C'mon.

I know you're tired of it.

I see it in your eyes.

- Can you?

- Yeah.

You think you know me?

I didn't say that.

You don't know who I am.

You don't know what I've done.

I don't care.

- We all have pasts.

- Yeah, but not all of us have futures.

In this line of work,

you do what it takes.

You tell yourself it's business.

But it's personal

and you can never go back.

Don't show up this afternoon,

okay? Promise me that.

So it's this afternoon?

This afternoon?

Where?

Don't answerthe phone. Just

promise me you won't show up.

That's the call?

- okay.

- Please, just do not...

- show up this afternoon!

- Hey, you're acting wierd. C'mon.
