Betrayal Page #5

to kill me, brother.

But why her?

I would have given

my life for her...

and for you.

Then kill me.

Let's finish it.

Vazgen.

Vazgen.

Let us all be sure

of what we're saying here.

After all, none of us

want any violence.

It's...

bad business.

You're right, Joey,

but either we change the way we do

things, or I change my approach.

I'm a man of reason.

But I'm also a man of my word.

Gentlemen,

let's realize

we're here for a common cause.

Well, it's my understanding that

Alexander was behind everything.

Nothing is ever as simple

as you might think.

Vaz.

We have all done business

with you in the past

and know you well.

But...

I still don't see what

this has got to do with us?

This affects us all, Joey.

Today, my children were used to

harm me and my business interests.

Tomorrow, that could happen

to any of you.

So, Vaz, what do you suggest

we do about it?

Whatever differences

that we may have,

we leave the families out of it.

I don't know about that, Vaz.

If they get out of line, then

they should be held responsible,

just like any of us would be.

Why should they get a pass?

No one's talking

about a pass, Tony.

What I'm saying is,

is if you have an issue

with anything any

of my family members have done,

then you'll come to me

and deal with me directly.

So, we settle our differences in a

more civilized way. Is that right?

Oh, Vaz.

You know, you hold

a lot of power in this city,

so things are easier

for you to resolve

than-than it would be

for me, him, him.

We might have to resort to,

what I would call,

drastic measures.

Easy or not,

families should be off limits.

I agree with Vaz.

What about when we're dealing

with some of these dirtbags

who don't respect our ways.

Sometimes we have to

become like them,

in order to set an example.

There's always a solution.

Always.

Maybe if we had

your connections, Vaz,

then we could afford

to think like you.

Well...

I'm open to sharing

my resources,

if you're all open

to sharing yours in return.

After all,

this benefits us all.

However,

if one of us breaks his word,

or doesn't honor his deal,

then the rest of us share

in punishing that person

and taking over their

business interests.

Now we know who

the real snake is.

I'll be happy to cut

his head off for you.

Everything in it's own time.

Remember, if you're patient,

you always win.

I want you to get your life

back on track.

Excuse me, sir.

Yes?

- Can you help me?

What is it you need?

I've lost everything.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Help him out.

I want you to put

all this behind you.

You're gonna finish school,

you're gonna get your life

back on track.

This is not the life I wanted

for you, you understand?

I understand, Dad.

'Kay? You're a smart kid...

Is that your son?

Yes, he is.

This was my son.

He was killed...

Your son killed my Boris.

For that... I take yours.

Michael, no...
