Donnie Brasco Page #3

by her. I ain't got $3 in my pocket.

I put a bet on a horse, that horse don't do

what it's supposed to do,

Iike every f***ing thing else in my life.

I got cancer of the prick.

My ex-wife lives in this building.

Can you believe it?

I run into her in the elevator.

I got to have three spritzers afterward

just to calm down after I see her.

What are you talking about,

cancer of the prick?

It's cancer of the prick.

You didn't know that?

I'm in the medical books for that.

I got this boat, too, this Bertram.

I had to get rid of it

for money I owe Sonny Red.

The vig alone is $3,000 a week.

-Who's that guy with him?

-Bruno? That's his son.

-I'd like to put a dent in that guy's head.

-No, you don't do that, Donnie.

-You don't touch him.

-I know. I'm saying I wish I could.

You wish?

A guy like you doesn't touch a made guy.

You know what I did yesterday?

I went in front of all the skippers.

That cocksucker Sonny Red, all of them.

I went on the record with you.

You know what that means?

I think I do.

You do? You ain't got no f***ing idea,

my friend.

Nobody can touch you now. I'm your man.

Jesus Christ couldn't touch you,

because I represent you.

So keep your nose clean, be a good earner,

follow the rules, and who knows,

maybe one day when they open the books,

you get straightened out.

Become a wise guy.

A made guy. Come on, lift your glass.

I'd die with you, Donnie.

Anything happens, I'm responsible.

-All right?

-All right.

-Salute.

-Salute.

All right, Don.

-Thanks a lot. It was excellent.

-Could you spot me a couple hundred?

-Yeah, okay.

-I'll get it back to you. You got it here.

Here you go.

-I'll get back to you on this.

-Yeah.

-Believe me. Call me tomorrow.

-All right.

Hello.

-Look what the reindeer dragged in.

-Merry Christmas.

I was working. Nothing I could do.

Working?

-Who works Christmas Day, Joe?

-I do.

-Where's the kids?

-They couldn't wait anymore.

Well, that's nice.

Christmas, they can't wait up

for their father.

-ls that your way of saying you're sorry?

-You know I'm sorry.

I don't need to know.

The girls need to know.

Only be sure to introduce yourself.

They might think

you're the Fuller brush man.

-lf you knew what I was doing today...

-I don't have an idea

-because you don't tell me, remember?

-Because it's for your own protection.

As if any of this is for me.

You're getting the checks, right?

-I'm getting the checks.

-Good. Then don't say it like it's nothing.

-'Cause it's not nothing.

-It's not nothing, but it's not a husband.

A lot of women would disagree with you.

Is that what you do with all your time?

-Conduct polls with all your women?

-I'm not even gonna dignify that.

Seven days a week, I'm out there busting

my ass, and this is the sh*t I come home to.

You said it was gonna be three months.

It's going on two years.

How do you find anything in here?

You got cereal on three shelves.

You got cereals over here.

Put stuff away for once. It's my job.

-Quit my job?

-What about my job, Joe?

Christmas Day you don't show up,

so Mommy puts on the Santa suit.

Mommy hangs the lights.

Mommy carves the roast.

-You just leave it alone.

-Joseph.

-lt would be easier if you tell me...

-Just give me a break.

...what goes on with these guys,

what you do.

Just shut up, please. Leave me alone.

Terry and Kerry are at my mother's.

Why don't you go pick them up?

Where's Sherry?

Sherry is with her boyfriend.

-What?

-She's at her boyfriend's.

-Since when does she have a boyfriend?

-She's 12, Joe.

-I didn't okay this, Maggie.

-Okay it? What do you think?

You can drop out of the sky like God

and bark orders?

I am the husband and the father!

I put food on that table!

-Undercover husband!

-What do I get for Christmas?

Empty f***ing house!

I'm here.

I wanted to be alone with you.

Oh, God.

What happened to your 'stache?

The B, they made me shave it off.

Can you believe that?

-They didn't.

-Yeah.

It was the only thing I liked about this job.

-So, Sherry got a boyfriend?

-Yeah, she does.

Nice kid. He's so nice.

He's on the wrestling team.

I'll bet he's on the wrestling team.

Kerry's doing the catechism. So sweet.

And they're swimming.

Coach says he's never seen nothing like it.

There's a meet Saturday.

What am I gonna do? We'll see.

You know that I wouldn't do this to you

if I didn't think you could handle it.

I'm not worried about me, Joe.

All right, what's going on, kids?

Am I getting the silent treatment?

I'll make a bet with you.

I'll bet you $20

that you can't get through this entire meal

without saying three words.

All right?

You lose.

What did she say?

What did she say?

Girls, come here a second.

Come here, Terry, Kerry.

Come on. Sorry, sweetie.

Come on. Let's go see your sister.

Come on upstairs.

Let's just, let's read a book.

Do what you're told.

Left, it's Donnie. I'm checking in.

Yeah, that's what I said. I'm checking in.

No. I've been out all day. What's going on?

All right. So long.

You didn't see the paper?

How come you didn't see the paper?

Every morning you're reading the paper.

What were you reading this morning?

Look at this.

Can you believe this?

The boss gets whacked. The f***ing boss.

You never hear from the boss

until he gets whacked

-and then your life gets turned around.

-Want to tell me where we're going?

-I got sent for.

-So what does that mean?

-You got sent for.

-What does that mean?

What do you think it means?

You don't wanna go? You want me

to turn around? I'll turn around.

What are you gonna do?

Take a left off the f***ing bridge?

-Not here, I'm saying after the bridge.

-No, I gotta go.

You get sent for, you go. Sonny sent for me.

I'm sick of this.

-You got sent for by Sonny Red?

-Did I say Sonny Red?

Not Sonny Red. Sonny Black.

Donnie, what are you doing? Put the f***...

Donnie, you wanna kill me

with that draft?

Left, Sonny Black is your friend.

What's the big deal?

Right. We're friendly.

Ain't the question, "friend."

The whole time Sonny Black's in the can,

the whole time...

He's got a family, he's got a mistress.

He's got a mistress for the mistress.

I watched out for them, all of them.

Me, I was the only one.

Nobody else gave a f***.

Two hundred fazools, week in, week out.

So you took care of Sonny Black.

What are you worried about, then?

Sometimes I think, in that orphanage,

they dropped you on your f***ing head.

How am I supposed to know

if you don't explain it?

You think I don't know

how a hit gets set up?

You think I don't know that?

You know, what I know.

How many times have I been

on the other end of that f***ing phone?

-Twenty-six times.

-Great.

You just got done saying

you and Sonny Black are friends.

Donnie, I got sent for.

In our thing, you get sent for,

you go in alive, you come out dead

and it's your best friend that does it.

Anything should happen to me,

make sure Annette gets the car.
