Baby, I'm sorry. You gotta listen to me.

Just hear me out, please.

Look me in the eye. Come on.

I know how you feel.

If you listen to me-Just give me

a moment to explain myself, all right?.

Come on, baby. I love you.

You think I'd do something like this?.

Carmen, come on.

Baby, come on.

Morning, Vic.

Nice f***in' place.

Security's a little light, though.

Dont you ever f***in' sleep?.

Vic, come on.

We had a nice deal going.

You can't just run out on us.

Does it look like I'm trying

to run out?.

She wants to see you.

All right, all right.

Get dressed.

I did what I said I was going to do.

There is the money.

- I'm incredibly grateful for that.

- What happened last night?.

You were supposed to

make sure there was no violence.

- You know, I tried-

- "Tried"?.

What am I supposed to do

with "tried," Vic?.

You said you could control Jimmy,

and what have I got?.

One of my key dealers dead

because you "tried"?.

This is how

you wanna do business with me?.

I am trusting you

with one and a half million dollars.

You're gonna fix this.

Jimmy has to go.

You got your money.

Now you finish your part of the deal.

This is obviously all of it.

If youre short,

you just give me a holler, all right?.

I'm sure it's all of it.

Oh, my God.

I didn't know you were

going to bring it all in cash.

It's a cash business.

Right. God, I gotta get this

to the bank. This is crazy.

- This better work.

- It's a lock, a total lock. I just-

We gotta go out and party

tonight or something, right?.

- No. I gotta take care of something.

- What do you gotta take care of?.

Look, I did my part.

- Now you do your part, all right?.

- Sure thing.

All right.

I'll meet you there. Peace.

Don't come any f***ing closer.

Take your f***ing hands out your pocket.

Let me see your hands.

Here you go.

I just wanna talk to you.

I just wanna talk to you.

That's all.

So talk.

You know, on my way over here

I was thinking about that time-

Remember that time when we were

about in eighth grade...

and we were at that bodega

near Saint Anne's...

and we were gonna rob

that carton of cigarettes?.

You were supposed to pretend to be

in a seizure, and we go in there...

and the guy starts-

You throw yourself on the ground,

flippin' and foamin'...

and the guy starts laughing.

You start flipping out a little more,

going a little crazier.

The guy laughs more.

You jump up, you grab him.

You say "Yo, motherf***er.

If this sh*t was for real...

would you be laughing your ass off

like that, motherf***er?"

You went crazy. You started goddamn

tearing the place apart, man.

Right then and there, I knew you could

do anything you ever wanted, man.

'Cause you were afraid

of nothin'.

That sh*t always stuck with me.

And then they sent you

to kill me?.

- Yeah.

- You gonna do it?.

What do you think?.

I think you thought about it.

Just... run, man.

Just f***in' run

the f*** outta here. Just-

Keep goin', man.

Don't f***in' turn around.

Where am I gonna go?.

I don't know, man.

I don't wanna die, man.

The number you have reached

is not in service.

Please check the number

and dial again.

The cellular number you have called

is no longer in service.

There is no further information.

Stevens, Haus and Gold.

Yeah, hello.

I'd like to speak to Bobby Gold, please.

- May I have that name again, sir?

- Robert Gold-

Bobby Gold, attorney-at-law, please?.

I don't have

a "Bobby Gold" listed here.

I'll connect you to Personnel.

Personnel. How can I help you?

- Hello?

- Yeah.

Hello?

I'm looking for a... Bobby Gold-

a Robert Gold, attorney-at-law.

Bobby Gold. To my recollection,

there's nobody here named Bobby Gold.

Not working at this office.

Hello? Are you sure

you have the right off-

Excuse me. Can I help you?.

Yeah.

I'm looking for Jack Wimmer.

Just a moment.

There's no one in this building

by that name, sir.

- Excuse me, sir. You can't go in there.

- Yeah.

Sh*t! F***er!

B*tch!

Man, I f***ed myself.

I've watched suckers get taken for

50 bucks playing three-card monte...

and I always thought, "You dumb fucks.

You deserve to be taken.

Now I've been taken like a child

for more than $4 million.

Everything I got, plus a million

and a half of La Colombiana's.

The only thing I had to go on

was the number Jack had called me from.

It was a Miami number.

Look, I've been

in crazy situations all my life...

but this was the first time

that I was all alone.

I had no where to turn

and no one to help me.

F***in' team ain't here no more, man.

Sh*t Like that happens, man.

Speakin' of the f***in' devil, man.

I'm outta here, man.

Come on.

- Where you going?.

- Bullshit. Bullshit.

This f***ing bullshit.

Look at this motherf***er

looking all sad and sh*t.

Four million?. Sh*t.

That was pretty f***ing stupid, man.

Come on, man. Would you shut

the f*** up already with this sh*t?.

It's bad enough, all right?.

No doubt,

but it was pretty stupid, man.

I'm trying to have this motherf***er's

head in the middle of the project...

throwing darts at it. Feel me?.

- How we gonna get at this motherf***er?.

- I know where he's at. He's in Miami.

All I got to do is track

his ass down. That's it.

Let's go get his ass.

This is mine. I got to go

at this sh*t alone. All right?.

Just need your help to get me some cash

to get from here to there. That's all.

You know, whatever I got, you got.

It's all there, son.

See what Jimmy's got.

21. He play better now.

So, you gonna

let Victor know?.

- I don't know.

- Well, most people like surprises.

- It's good to see you.

- Thank you.

Baby. Baby, don't.

Please, please.

Not now. Please don't.

I can't do this right now.

I know how you feel.

Come and sit down for a minute.

Can I talk to you for a minute, please?.

Yeah?. Come on.

Are you all right?.

God, you're so huge.

Look at that.

Oh, my God. I can feel it.

Baby, I'm so sorry. I know

you're mad at me and everything.

I'm gonna fix everything.

I know how you feel.

I just gotta go away for a little while,

all right?. Then I'll come back.

It's your son.

It's a boy?.

No kidding. It's a boy?.

I don't believe that sh*t.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

I can't believe it.

Oh, baby. That's great.

I can't believe it. I knew it.

I knew it was gonna be a boy.

I really f***ed up, baby,

but it's gonna be okay.

I'm gonna fix everything.

I'm gonna fix it. I'll have Jay coming

for you and take care of you, all right?.

If you need anything,

you just call me. All right?.

- I love you, baby.

- I love you too.

- Hello?

- Hello. Yes, hello.

I'm a friend of Jacks.

I just got into town.

I lost his number.

Can you believe that?.

Luckily, he gave me

your number as a backup.

Who are you? You're a friend of my son's

from New York, you said?

Yeah, we been friends for a long time-

since college and what not.

He just asked me to come down

for the weekend.

And he gave you my number?

It's not like him to give out my number.
