the floor with you.

F***in' coward.

Goodnight, Pino.

Yeah, goodnight, Bobby.

Come on, let's play.

Hey, Chips.

Got a little something

for you this time.

Yeah, funny.

Hey, listen.

I know you're looking

at me in a funny way

Because of the other night.

But I have the biggest

opportunity in your life

To offer you.

Listen, whatever it is

you're offering,

I'm not interested.

Wanna bet?

Turk has got himself

a pretty good situation

Over there in his little

playroom, don't you think?

So?

They meet there once a month,

you know that?

No, why would I know that?

But they got good security.

They got an old guy

who sleeps half the day.

Couple of guys could

go in there,

Take the whole bundle.

Not much trouble.

Sure.

But you'd have to have

the IQ of a f***ing squirrel.

No, no, no, no, no.

No, there's no way.

The new guy shows up

at the game,

All of a sudden

there's a robbery.

I'll be there.

I'll tell 'em

you were here all night.

Pino will vouch.

Chips, it's...

In and out

in five minutes.

I'll give you

100 grand.

I'm not doing it.

Two grand, expenses.

You know what, f*** you

and your expenses, Chips.

All right, you call me when

you've changed your mind.

Would you quit being

such a p*ssy?

I mean, it sounds pretty

straight-forward to me.

Believe me, I could use

the money.

But I'm not going to jail

for Chips.

They don't look like

revenge guys, Bobby.

Okay, they're soft.

They're a bunch of bankers,

right?

Besides, Chips

will be there.

This is...

This is crazy.

I'm trying

to dig myself out,

I'm not trying

to dive back in again.

I got plans,

I got Kim.

See, now you just

sound stupid.

Okay, it's gonna

take you months

To pay back your mom.

And then you're gonna be

right back where you started.

Okay, and medical bills,

I mean, that sh*t ain't cheap.

You got meds and

treatments and nurses.

This is your way out.

You and Chips, you guys

only see what you wanna see.

This is messed up.

I'm not getting

mixed up in it.

Bobby...

Hey, Bobby.

Hey, what's up, Femi?

So, I put in a good word

for you in head office,

And I got great news.

Yeah, what?

You're gonna be our next

Employee of the Month.

Plaque on the wall,

lunch at home every Friday

For the next month.

That's... that's great,

Femi.

There's one catch,

but it doesn't really matter.

Um, you're gonna be sharing it

with Arthur this month.

Arthur?

Yeah.

He's won it 14 times.

It's a company record.

Fourteen times

in 40 years.

That's dedication.

He's been here

for 40 years?

Yeah.

Amazing, right?

Congratulations,

Bobby.

Ben, what's up?

Hey, Femi,

I'm just, um...

Yeah, carry on.

Go ahead, my victims.

Read 'em and weep.

It'll always come up

kings, Chip.

Ha, ha...

A-ha...

Maybe they did...

I don't wanna play

anymore.

I mean, I do.

I mean...

Burt! Grab that.

Who the hell is...?

If I were you,

I wouldn't stay in this game.

I really wouldn't.

Could cost you too much.

I'll decide what's too much.

You're awful cute, honey,

but you're not gonna win.

Burt?

Don't f***ing move!

Oh, sh*t!

We need you to open

the f***ing safe!

What the f***?

He almost shot you.

Hey, stay down!

F*** it.

It's already open!

There's nothin' in here!

What?

Hey, sit your ass down!

I'm gonna need

your briefcase.

Just hand it over

and no one else gets hurt!

It would be a real shame

If something happened

to your little girl.

Augh!

Ah...

Ah, f***!

Holy sh*t, Bobby!

Jesus Christ!

F***, Bobby!

You know, we could

take this down

To the roulette tables

right now

And put it all on red

and double it!

That's exactly what we should

do with all this money!

Yeah, yeah,

you mean it?

Yeah, no.

No, that's not what we

should do at all, you idiot.

You know, Bobby, sometimes

you can be really negative.

Just help me count

the money, okay?

Yeah?

Your eyes stop

bleeding yet?

F***, I got out

of there quick,

But I'm still

puking my guts out.

He came into my home,

Chips.

Came into my f***ing house

When my daughter's

f***ing sleeping!

I'm just as f***ing

furious as you are,

But I don't know

who these molodranes are.

I really don't.

Do you know?

Do you have any idea

who this could have been?

A guy came in last month.

The one you beat.

Bobby.

Bobby something.

I need his address.

That's the first guy

I thought of too,

But when I came in

my club last night,

He was drunk as skunk

sitting there.

I asked Pino, he said

he'd been there all night,

And I checked the video.

It's not him.

All right, maybe

it wasn't Bobby.

Whoever it was, I want

their f***ing heads

On a f***ing stick!

And you're gonna

f***ing help me find him!

That's 100%.

Jesus.

Tear gas?

What the f***

were you thinking,

The way you handle this?

Thinking that we roll in there

like a couple of bad-asses

And rob a card game.

Why don't you just

shut the f*** up?

Give him a break, okay?

You know...

A little heads-up

would have been nice.

"Ah, geez, Chips,

I love you like a father...

Wear some f***ing

swimming goggles. "

Something!

Well, you know, Chips,

on the next job

We'll keep you fully

informed, okay?

If you never speak again,

you'd do the smartest

F***ing thing you

ever did in your life!

Here.

Don't spend it all

in one place.

I'm done with this sh*t,

Chips.

I'm serious.

This was my last bet.

Yeah, sure, that's good.

I'll see you

tomorrow night.

Later, Chips.

The Giambrone brothers here.

One's stupider than the other.

Hey.

There it is.

Every penny.

How'd you get

the money back, Bobby?

Gambling, right?

Mom.

Mom, this is

the last time.

I swear to you,

I'm done.

Can I come home now?

Oh, honey.

Oh, Bobby.

I love you.

I love you, too.

I know.

Where'd you get

this money from?

Look, you can't

tell anyone.

I love secrets.

And first of all,

I've never done this before,

And I'm never

doing it again.

Got it.

Chips got us to rob

a card game.

He said if I did it,

I'd get 50 grand.

So I did.

Jesus, Bobby.

Babe, I just...

I needed a way out.

Okay, I-I just...

Just a boost to

start over again.

That's it.

No, and now Chips

has you by the balls

Because he can turn

you into the cops

Whenever he wants.

No, and if he does

I'll do the same to him.

We got each other

by the balls.

Trust me,

I'm done with Chips.

Is he done with you,

though?

I mean, guys like that are

never out of your life, Bobby.

Maybe.

But I'm using this money

to start over.

You do something that

stupid again and I'm gone.

I got it.

Want some of this cake?

The f***ing cake.

I'm gonna eat

the rest of it.

It's actually pretty good.

Turk, look,

it's 250...

It's not about

the f***ing money.

I don't give a sh*t

about the money.

These creeps come into

my house and do this.

You... you don't need

to justify it, okay?

I just need to know what...

I'm not done.

If I want to invite

some colleagues into my home

And they want to play

some games, grab some ass,

I don't want them looking
