Brooklyn Rules Page #9

I don't f***in' believe this.

He failed.

How is that possible?

I don't know.

I mean, have you seen the imbeciles

that they got working down at that place?

Mental patients. Monkeys.

There are monkeys who could

literally pass this test.

He was a genius with some stuff.

Like what?

Movies?

Wheel of fortune.

Pac-Man, he was good at pac-

I know.

He was like an idiot savant.

Yeah, an idiot savant,

A little heavier on the idiot part, I think.

Don't start, okay?

Let's not do this.

and he's negotiating the price

of a blow-job.

I thought they were going to throw us

right the f*** out of that place.

Well, he did

get the price down, though.

Yes, he did.

Hey, how about that time

we were garage hopping?

Oh, and he fell through the f***in' roof.

I thought I was going to piss myself.

Stupid f***.

Ah.

He was the best.

You got that right.

I didn't even say a prayer

for him at the wake.

I just kneeled there.

I couldn't do it.

He'd understand.

When my father was in the hospital,

I prayed for him every day.

He f***in' died anyway.

Have you talked to that detective again?

Yeah. You?

Yeah, what'd you say?

Same as before, nothing.

What about you?

Nothin'.

You know, we...

We could just tell him the truth.

Yeah.

We could.

Yeah.

Those were my bullets, Carmine.

Yeah, I know.

I know that, Mike.

Where do you think he is?

I don't know.

He's in heaven.

How the f*** do I know where he is?

Not him, Gino.

Oh.

Philly knows where we could find him.

You know, he never got to pick a best man.

It's a coin toss, you know.

It could have been either one of us.

You free tomorrow night?

I'll tell Ellen something came up.

So we are talking about the same thing?

You know, for all the times

we broke his balls,

we never told him we loved him.

He knew we did.

He knew.

I f***in' hope so.

Yeah.

Hey!

Clank!

You ready?

How about you, you f***ing

cocksucker, you ready?

Come here.

Get up. Get up.

Pick your f***in' head up.

I said pick it up!

You're sure you want

to do this?

Yeah.

For the best man.

Heads, it's me.

Tails, it's you.

Heads.

What the f*** did you do?

It was me.

Come here.

It was heads.

Calm down, Mike.

Listen to me.

Listen to me, Mike.

Listen to me.

They got law schools

in California, all right?

Get the f*** out of here.

All right?

Take that little girl and go, Mike.

Get the f*** outta here.

Me here.

In a strange way,

I felt angry at Carmine,

like he cheated me

out of avenging Bobby's death.

I eventually came to realize

it was the most selfless thing

he had ever done.

Until that night,

I never really thought I'd leave Brooklyn.

I could never imagine

being apart from my friends.

But that summer,

I moved to California with Ellen.

Carmine and I kept in touch,

but we didn't see each other for years.

Then one day, I got a call.

O, give thanks to the lord, for he is good.

His steadfast love endureth forever.

The lord is my strength and my song.

Do you have the ring?

You may kiss the bride.

Though years had passed

and we were thousands of miles

away from each other,

in church that day, I realized something.

When you have friends, real friends,

it doesn't matter if they're here or there,

living or dead.

No matter where you go,

you always take them with you

in your heart.
