Alex, is that ten grand
or are you just happy to see me?
It's there.
Let's go.
How did a bonehead like Wolf
wind up in the fight ring...
with Minoso Torres?
Word is Wolf stepped in on a beef
Torres had with Gabriel Caine.
Caine's too smart
to get on Torres' bad side...
unless he had a reason
for getting there.
Find him.
Wait here.
It's there. Let's go.
- Put this on.
- F*** you.
Put this on or I'll break your glasses
and feed you to Lester in D block...
you little gerbil.
- Right over the grate.
- What grate?
- Just keep crawling.
- Hot! Jesus!
- Good.
- Damn!
- Stop.
- Can I take it off now?
You could, but if you do the man
on the other side will kill you.
If you show
he'll put you on a boat,
take you across the lake...
pick you up in a car and then drive you
across the state line.
Whatever you decide to do,
please do so with haste.
- What is it?
- Yeah.
You're going outside.
The showers won't be the same
without you.
Get up!
Get your fat ass up!
Don't you know you're not
supposed to smoke in bed?
Gabe.
You want to say good night
to your little sister...
and your ugly dogs in Diggstown?
Thanks.
You're a good friend.
I don't know, Wolf.
let you fight Torres.
Arert you gonna
sing and dance with him?
It did do the trick, though.
- So you're here to cheer me up.
- Yeah.
You're gonna make me
a rich man, right?
That I am.
So you're a good friend.
Maybe the best I ever had.
Nobody ever took the time
And nobody
ever gave me a chance...
to make the kind of money
we made today.
So you're a good friend, okay?
Get some rest, partner.
Yeah.
In the 18 years
I've been running Winfield...
there have only been
six escapes.
Five of them
since you arrived here.
Like little old Alex Dupree
who disappeared last night.
Mr. Caine?
I think the important thing is not
to take it as a personal rejection.
Warden, I owe you an apology.
Guys said your clip was full of blanks,
but I didn't know they meant your gun.
I don't carry blanks.
God, that was clumsy of me.
Scared me.
Did it scare you?
You're smart, Caine.
How did they catch
a boy as smart as you?
Let's just say you might want
to change careers...
and sell phony art
to rich people.
Make sure your painter doesn't use
acrylics on 18th-century landscapes.
I'll remember that.
I will.
And you remember this:
I'll find out
how you've been doing it...
before you're released
next week.
- Keith.
- So this means Club Med is out?
- Jesus. What if they find the tunnel?
- So what?
- You think I left my name on it?
- I don't know.
Queen.
What are the chances
of another queen?
Two showing, ten cards down?
Looks like two out of forty to me.
Unless, of course...
Son of a b*tch!
Unless there's one queen left 'cause
the other one isn't where you put it.
Ten thousand come out okay
with Alex?
Leave it to you
to make 50 grand in jail.
A mere bag of shells,
but it should get us started.
How are those farm boys
looking in Diggstown?
Nothing Roy can't handle.
I've seen them all.
- How's he doing?
- Roy's doing good.
I talked to him.
He's really excited.
- Yeah? Good.
- Yeah.
It's time to set the hook
in Diggstown.
- Do it just like I told you.
- Yeah.
Exactly like I told you.
Then the party's on me
when it's over.
Gabe, when it's over...
we'll all be lucky to get away
before they kill us.
What's the difference between
a hustler and a good con man?
- What?
- A hustler has to leave town quickly...
but a good con man doesn't have
We're in business.
- Fitz, man.
- Corny.
- Right.
- How are you?
Remember I promised to introduce you
to some of the guys?
You certainly did.
- This is Frank and Sam.
- Hello.
That's Tank there. Over there
playing pool is Robby and Billy.
- This is the big fertilizer man.
- Randall Patrick O'Shannon Fitzpatrick.
- Call me "Fitz. "
- I hear you're good with card tricks.
- You did?
- How are you at the real thing?
You don't want me
sitting in here.
Cards just turn to money
in these hands.
Back home they call me
"The Cleveland Collector. "
He told me that.
They'll call you the "Cleveland Clown"
after we're through with you.
They will?
Sit your ass down.
Seriously?
I don't want any hard feelings here.
I'll take all your money.
I hope I got enough money
to get in this game.
Cut 'em.
Luck be a lady tonight.
Thank you.
I'm sorry. Really.
Must be my lucky day.
Sam, thank you.
Thank you kindly.
Ouch.
This is fun.
Isn't this fun?
- Sh*t.
- Damn.
- Is this his?
- It must be.
This is a nice truck.
I'd give my dick
for a truck like this.
What would be the use
of having it?
Yeah, right.
I better be going.
I'll see you around.
All right, Robby.
Talk to you later.
Yeah.
God, I love this building.
Yeah, you were a genius
to buy this place.
No, I was a genius
to have the town buy this place...
and then hire me to manage it.
That's genius.
You know, Daddy,
you are this town.
Yes, I am.
You left yourself wide-open.
I'll tell you something, there are
several ways of getting things done.
It's time you start learning
what they are.
Someday Diggstown will be yours.
I'm ready whenever you say, sir.
I'm sure you are, Robby Gillon.
Every day it becomes more and more
important to how people see you.
You want to make goddamn sure...
they don't ever see anything
you don't want them to see.
You got that?
Yeah, I guess so.
Good boy.
There's my boy.
Then I think maybe they should get used
to seeing how good you look.
In a 1958 red and white Corvette.
Oh, my God, Daddy.
- You're next, Robby.
- I can't believe this.
- That's what that car says.
- She's beautiful, Daddy.
I know you're in a hurry,
but it would mean a lot to me...
if you could stop
and say hi to my dogs.
"Say hi to your dogs"?
Are you joking?
- What is that?
- They'd smell me on this.
Wolf, you'll be out of here
in two weeks. Please.
But I've been gone a long time.
I know they miss me.
It won't be no trouble.
They're at the boardinghouse
with my sister.
That's right. I don't want anyone
to know that you and I know each other.
How will talking to my dogs
tell her that?
We'll need Emily's help
on this thing we're setting up.
I can't ask her to do that.
I don't know her. She's your sister.
You have to ask her when you get out.
Use your head.
She hates me! I wouldn't see her
when she come up here.
She won't return my letters.
I'll say hi to your f***ing dogs
for you, okay?
Oh, thanks.
State of Georgia might be through
with you, Caine, but I'm not.
You know what you need?
You need to get out more often.
You're spending way too much time
in the company of men.
Be seeing you, Caine.
In your f***ing dreams.
Come on, open up.
Hey, baby.
Sh*t, not even a damn kiss
