Yeah, Travis, yeah.

He's a good guy.

Yeah, he is.

He's great.

Sh*t, sorry. Frank.

Frank. Babe.

Are you still there?

G.

Gina!

Gina!

Babe?

Sh*t, I lost him. Whatever.

I'll call him back later.

Yeah, the reception is

a b*tch around here.

Yeah, it sucks.

Same thing happens

to my f***ing phone.

It's crazy.

Anyway,

I'm sorry to hit and run.

Jesus Christ!

Gina!

Gina!

Hey, hey, hey.

Jesus Christ. V!

Hey, hey. Wake up.

Wake up.

Hey, wake up.

Wake up, wake up.

Hey! Wait, wait, wait.

Stop, stop, stop.

Where's Gina?

Where is Gina? Where is Gina?

Where is she?

- I don't know.

- Where is she?

- Your friend.

- Who?

Niko.

- What's going on?

- -Who'd you f***ing talk to?

- What? Nobody.

- Who'd you f***ing talk to?

I didn't talk to anybody.

I didn't talk to anybody!

Who'd you talk to?

Niko just took Gina.

- What?

- Who did you talk to?

- I didn't...

- Who did you f***ing talk to?

- I didn't talk to anybody.

- Who did you talk to?

How could they possibly

know, Travis?

Dude, he's got half the force

in his f***ing pocket.

You don't think he's got

the d.A.'S office either?

Ah, sh*t.

- Yeah, sh*t.

- Sh*t.

Listen,

I'm gonna make some calls.

Where are you gonna be?

Frank, where are you gonna be?

I don't know.

I'm gonna talk to Charlie.

All right.

Meet you there.

Hey, dad. Dad.

Hey, twice in one week.

I must've hit the lottery.

Dad, listen.

Something bad happened.

What happened?

I promise I didn't do anything.

I didn't do anything wrong,

okay?

Okay. What happened?

Tell me.

I saw something

that I shouldn't have seen.

And I tried doing

the right thing. I tried.

I really did, dad,

I tried making it better

and it made it worse.

Okay? And I... look...

Tell me. Tell me.

Just tell me, frank.

I didn't want to tell you.

I saw Mickey the other night.

Ah, f***. I should've known.

I should've known!

No, no, no! Wait!

Please just listen to me.

Please. I haven't seen him

in years, okay? I haven't.

And some sh*t went down the other

night I had no part in. Honest.

And he f***ing, to keep me quiet,

he just kidnapped my wife.

Un-f***ing-believable. I thought

you were doing so good.

After everything I've done to help you,

you're still hanging out with that scumbag?

I'm not hanging out with him. I

just told you that. I'm not.

- Keep it down over there.

- I'm not working with him.

I haven't seen him.

Nothing.

I just don't know what to do

right now. I need help.

Frankie,

I don't know what to tell you.

I got nothing else to give you.

- Dad.

- I've done everything I can.

- Dad, come on.

- Frankie.

I don't know what to do.

Please.

Some things you're gonna have to

figure out for yourself.

What do you mean figure out

for myself?

Didn't you hear

what I just f***ing said?

Didn't you hear

what I just said?

Take it easy.

I'm not gonna tell you again.

That's my wife

and I'm your f***ing son.

- Let go of my arm, Frankie.

- I'm your f***ing son and you don't want to help me?

I'm your f***ing son!

Frankie, stop!

Let him go, Frankie!

Stop!

Frank.

Jesus Christ,

what happened to you?

- Are you all right?

- What are you doing here?

What are you f***ing doing here?

What are you doing here?

Ow! F***ing frank, stop!

Are you lying to me?

You owe Mickey money?

- No!

- Are you holding out on me?

Are you holding out on me?

No, I'm not!

I'm not, I'm not!

When was the last time

he called you?

- F***, I don't know.

- Did he ever call you at all?

No, he never... once,

but he has a burner.

Don't you f***ing lie to me,

Travis!

He changes it every couple of days.

I'm not lying to you.

- I'm not lying to you.

- What about that guy at the bar the other night?

- The guy that knows everybody.

- Yeah. F***ing Donny. Donny.

He can get to him, okay?

I just talked to him.

He's at Bernie's.

I can take you there.

You're gonna take me there right

f***ing now, you understand?

- Yeah.

- Don't you f***ing lie to me!

- Ow! F***!

- Go!

You're an amazing singer.

You should see me

sing rock ballads.

Donny. Hey, Donny. Donny.

I need your help here.

My friend frank over here, he's

kind of in a bad way, all right?

Just don't f*** with him.

All right?

Hey. Watch out.

Hey, frank.

You look like you need a beer.

- Where can I find Mickey?

- Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Slow your roll there, Tex.

This isn't the prom.

Maybe you can buy me a drink

and then you can get

into my pants.

Maybe, if you buy me two,

I'll let you get into her pants.

Aah!

What are you doing, man?

A f***ing fork?

I don't have time

for bullshit, okay?

Listen to me.

Where is Mickey?

I don't know where.

I mean I don't know

where he is right now!

- He may be at cafe Azzuro.

- Where?

Cafe Azzuro.

He'll be there every morning.

He gets a cappuccino and he

likes it there. It's quiet.

- It's like clockwork there.

- You got a number?

Yeah, it's in my phone.

Listed under "a**hole."

Ahh! Stop! Stop, man!

His name is "a**hole"

in my phone!

Ow. The number is in there.

It's the last one he used.

Shut the f*** up and come here!

Shut up!

What about his daughter crystal?

Yeah, yeah. My brother's been hanging

out with her the past few weeks.

She's been hanging out

at his club. Ow! Ow!

She's there every night.

Works the back room.

If you are lying to me...

If you're f***ing lying...

I'm not, man. Trust me. They're

gonna be there. I guarantee it.

Ahh! Oh, f***!

Yo, frank. Why were you talking

about crystal back there?

Go get a burner, and get to that alley

across the street from Azurro's.

And get there in the morning

before he gets there.

- Frank. Frank, wait.

- Just do it.

- Don't f***ing "wait" me.

- Okay.

- All right?

- Okay.

Keep your f***ing phone on.

What's up slut? Yeah?

Yeah, you missed a great night.

So I hope he was worth it.

No, he was wasted again.

I just can't deal with it.

I'm on my way home.

But you are coming out

tomorrow night,

so wear something hot.

We are going to visage.

All right.

I'll call you manana.

Oh, come on. Goddamn it!

Ahh! F***er!

- Yo.

- Where the hell you been, man?

Hey, I'm sorry. I've just been

making some f***ing phone calls.

I got a new friend.

What are you talking about

a new friend?

- I got crystal.

- You got crystal?

Oh, he's gonna listen now.

- Jesus Christ we need...

- Where's Mickey?

He's right where

Donny said he'd be.

He's at the cafe.

Hmm, that's funny cause he's not

picking up the phone, Trav.

So, what do you wanna do?

What's he doing right now?

He's just talking to Niko.

All right, get him that burner.

Are you sure

you wanna do it this way?

I mean... I mean, man, we could

just get out of this mess.

We could just take her,

drop her off somewhere.

She'll think she passed out. It wouldn't

be the first f***ing time, right?
