Better they're on than

they're off.

Tell me who's up there?

If I gotta f***ing

ask you again...!

I swear, I don't know!

Who's staying with you?!

Nobody, just me and her.

If we walk into a

f***ing shitstorm,

I'll bust your f***ing brain.

F*** it, I'm going up.

Wait a minute, Jake!

Jake! Jake! Jake!

What was that?

I'm coming up!

F***ing piece of sh*t.

Said this thing might jam,

and what does it do?

F***ing jinxed it.

Thought those things were

indestructible.

F***...

What could I say?

Things were f***ed with us for a long time,

way before we tried

to get my bonds back.

Even before Punchy

sent me to prison.

Sh*t got real weird,

right around the time

we met this girl,

this girl with a f***ed up name.

Wait, what's my name again?

Dan... Dan-I-L.

You're still

not saying it right.

It's not Dan-I, it's "Duh",

like "you're an idiot,"

and "neel", like

"get on your knees."

Dan...

Not Dan! Duh!

Duh!

Right.

Duh... neel.

Daneel.

Perfect.

You know, this is, like exactly

exactly exactly like

what we were talking about

in my class today.

About you being wrong?

No, you f***ing smartass.

What?

This is about when people say

what they say

but they're not really saying

what they're saying.

Say that again?

Okay, she's in an acting class.

Sorry, the Sansford-Meisner

Center for Theater.

Thank you.

I'll say it slower,

so you can understand.

So it's like when people

say what they say,

like you're saying,

but they're not really saying

what they're saying,

like you're not really saying.

Jeez.

My god!

This is exactly what you're talking about

and what I'm talking about.

It's not...

People see and say things

differently,

like I was saying before

about you guys being hot.

You don't have to deal

with the normal sh*t

that women have to deal with.

So we live in a pretty girl

world full of bullshit?

We've never written out a cheque

or pumped our own gas?

I mean, I might be too stupid to

eat my own meal.

Hey, my mother's pretty.

My god.

Are you okay?

Yeah. He's usually

the quiet one.

Thought I'd give him

a chance to speak up.

Hi.

Hi.

Hi, Jake.

Hi, Daneel.

See, I remembered.

You did.

I left something in the car.

Jake, where you going?

Should we go somewhere else

after this?

I mean, I'm ready.

I had like four shots.

Would you relax?

Would you relax?

Why are you so uptight?

Jesus Christ, act professional.

Don't be so uptight.

Jake, come on.

I'm supposed to believe that

that black guy's a Russian?

Yeah, well, obviously

he's not a real Russian,

but he works for the Russians.

Part of the plan.

He gets pulled over,

just another black guy

stealing a car.

He never knew there was

laundered money in it.

It's almost foolproof.

Black Russian comes in,

sips two cognacs,

waits for the guy to drop the

keys to the Cadillac

in the bathroom,

and then f***ing guy in the

booth looks after it.

Six minutes, every time.

Hey, what do you

think of this shirt?

I should've wore black, right?

Really want to know

what I think of that shirt?

No, not right now I don't.

This shirt says you don't have

to wait two f***ing months

to find out I'm a prick.

I'm telling you right now.

You f***.

Easy with the shirt.

Easy with the shirt.

That was a good one, Jake.

That was a good one.

Jakey, come on,

let's go back inside.

The girls are at

the bar, waiting.

I'll see you inside.

Listen,

the Russians are using your stupid Cadillac

to transfer money out of that

warehouse over there.

Punchy says this is where they

stash the bearer bonds.

Come on, Jakey, it's easy!

What about the barbed wire?

It's not impossible to get over.

You see that Passion of the

Christ wire right there?

Even if we do get over it,

you want one of those Russians

to shoot you in the back?

You want a f***ing bullet to the

spine, 'cause I certainly don't.

Go ahead, squint,

take a look at it.

Squint at that sh*t.

You'll see what I'm saying.

The car.

Jake, come on

with the f***ing car.

The car, the car, the Caddy

with cash in the compartments.

Instead of following it here,

we take it.

Jake, it's not as

much as the bonds.

Bonds, are those

even f***ing real

or is that some sh*t

they make up in the movies?

Car's not enough.

Why would we run down the street

and f*** one cow

when we can walk

and f*** 'em all.

Okay. Now I get it.

That's good.

F***ing imbecile.

Punchy says there's four

or five million in there.

Hey, you know I owe

Punchy this job,

which means you owe him

this job.

What's wrong with you?

Why do you keep harping on this?

I think we need to bring

somebody else in.

I'm thinking Donny.

You, me, and Donny

are gonna get this done.

Donny needs three promotions

just to be an a**hole.

We're that desperate

we need Donny? F*** Donny!

Where you going?

Okay, you gonna do this

f***ing bullshit?

Get back in the f***ing car.

This looks f***ing weird.

It looks like I felt you up

at the f***ing prom.

What's wrong with you?

Let me give you a little peek

into your future, okay?

We can go round and round

and round like this,

like we always do, but you're

not doing your thing without me;

it's not happening.

And I'm not doing my thing

without you.

So get back in the f***ing car

and deal with it.

You're so worried

about money all the time.

Stop with this steal the car

thing.

I don't trust the other one.

Yeah?

And I don't trust Punchy either.

What, 'cause he didn't

fold the pizza?

It's that and other things.

Yeah, but mostly because he

didn't fold a pizza.

The pizza wasn't deep dish.

Jake, he didn't fold a pizza.

Stop looking at Punchy's

Hugo watch

and see what this guy

really is, okay?

I know. A guy who

didn't fold a pizza.

Listen, when he puts ketchup

on a hotdog...

different story.

Hey, it's every man for himself.

Since Jake never had the balls

to make a move on Daneel,

I did.

Try my pilsner.

I think you'll like this one.

Can I just have some water,

actually?

Water, really?

Yeah. Hey, do you, um...

Do you 4-20?

4-20?

Like, you know...

No, I actually promised Nancy

Reagan I would just say no.

Just smoke with me.

I'll watch you.

But I have, like, a whole

process, so you can't judge.

Well, I'm gonna have to judge

now, since you brought it up.

No, you don't.

You have to promise me

you're not gonna judge.

Okay, I won't judge.

All right, deal.

So, what do you do for a living?

I live for a living.

I'm my own boss.

I know, but what do you do?

I'm watching you.

That's my job.

We didn't have much in common,

but I enjoyed the way

she rolled a joint.

And she gave head

like a fat girl.

I saw a long-term relationship

in this.

I got a call from a friend.

She said, "What going on

with you and Jack?"

She wanted to be an actress.

Everybody's gotta

have a dream, right?

When I was a kid,

I wanted to be an astronaut.

You're gonna have to do

something about it.

I give myself better odds.

You've gotta crawl

before you can walk.
