Excuse me. You know

Hey! What are

I got you,

don't worry about it!

Hold on a second, ma'am,

Thank you.

Hey!

Hey, you're holding people up here!

How you doing today?

Not so good.

Yo, we got it! Piano Man, Piano

Man. Billy Joel. Uptown Girl.

Hello, beautiful. Anybody selling

No, no, you got...

You got to give me

Ma'am, you got two

Yo, move your sh*t, man.

IPods, $20!

Move your sh*t, man.

How much is your book?

I'm just trying to

This is misspelled.

No, that's how

Hey, hey, hey.

Come here. Come here.

Hey, what are you doing?

Just watch yourself.

Give me

back my money!

Somebody ought

to call the cops on you.

Walk this way, walk.

Pay your fare!

Hey, Mr. Sou.

How you doing, Mr. Sou?

Good? You know that

Radio Music Hall up there?

Man, I'll tell you, they

tried to kill me up there, man.

I bought some stuff

from downtown.

It was a fake book. I don't

even know how you do a fake book.

I'm gonna get some umbrellas

from you, is that okay?

Can I get some umbrellas from you? Yeah?

You said $100

last time, right?

I got in a fight, lost all my

money. This is all I got left.

Is that okay?

That's $100 right there. I

got one $20 left, all right?

Man, I had my stuff at

Radio City Music Hall.

I ain't gonna go down

there no more, though.

They're a bunch of crooks down

there. I'll see you later, Mr. Sou.

It's that kid from before,

Harvey. He's coming in here.

Can I help you?

Come on, look, I want

my money back, okay?

What money are you

talking about?

You know what I'm talking

about. Look, I don't mean no...

Come on.

He took it.

No, he did not... Okay,

I want it back right now.

He took your money? Okay.

Same shirt and everything.

This is Z and

as you can tell,

he's a little retarded

sometimes, okay?

Harvey.

Look, listen.

How much are we talking about

here? Don't give him sh*t.

No, no, listen. I've

got this. How much...

Hey, that's not nice.

That's not nice.

Here, thank you very much.

I should call the police on

you, you know? You should.

That's exactly what you should do.

I'll wait here for you if you want.

You know, you shouldn't be

robbing people, you know that?

And especially ones that

can come and find you.

Why don't you sit down and

talk to me for a second?

I just want to have

a conversation with you.

I was talking

about you earlier.

Look, try some of these bread

things, they're terrible.

You're going to

go after this kid?

Hey, wait up a second.

Where you going?

You know, that was some show

you put on out there today.

In the streets, you

know, the fisticuff thing.

Can I ask you one

question, though?

I'd much rather you

just stop following me.

I'm not following you, I'm

walking down the street.

But look, if you

want to make money...

You know...

Sorry, buddy.

There ain't

no friends here.

Think sitting behind a desk,

sucking ass all day, is making money.

Look, I'm Harvey Boarden,

all right?

Let me introduce myself,

I'm Harvey Boarden.

Shawn MacArthur.

Good to meet you.

You like to fight?

If I have to.

I can make you $5,000.

Got you interested, huh?

You see that store

right there?

You ever wonder how little

places like that stay in business?

BMW parked in front of it.

People dressed nicely.

They like people

that like to fight.

You want to make

some money at it?

Huh?

Yes or no?

You don't want to make no

money, you don't have to go.

You can go on

with your life.

I can make $5,000 with

you on one fight alone.

You can stay there

and go home if you like

or you can come

and get $5,000.

Wait, hey.

You ain't got no place to

go, go where you're going.

You better give me $5,000

if I walk across the street.

Come on, break out

one of them umbrellas.

It ain't raining.

You're right.

You know these guys, you

ever seen these guys before?

I'm like an agent for them,

I get them talent and stuff.

Hey, Christopher,

Jack.

Hey, Harvey.

Hey, Claudette, Martinez.

Chinese guy

named Martinez.

What?

Go figure.

That guy was Chinese?

Yeah, his mother

or something.

But those guys, they run every

bet place in this whole city.

And that's what matters

'cause that's how you get paid.

Hey, Mr. Wilson. Mr. Wilson. Mr. Wilson.

Harvey, I have to thank you so

much for those Billy Joel tickets.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

You look lovely tonight, ma'am.

Did he do my favorite song,

the "Downtown Alexa" thing?

Okay. Hey!

What are you doing,

Harvey? No way.

No way. I gotta go to 38th

Street to get some juice.

It's about to rain.

Get in the car, drive.

Get in the car, Z.

I got an umbrella for you

anyway. Come on, get in.

Get rid of the box, you

don't need that anymore.

Where are we going?

We're in a $100,000 Mercedes.

That's where we're going.

Okay, so what

happened to the $5,000?

Hey, here's your boy.

Good morning.

Thanks for showing.

I got your text,

so here I am.

You need a soda or anything?

No, I'm cool.

Do me a favor. Go get me

a orange soda or something.

So what goes on here?

Well, we're going to get you an

opportunity. You want to fight, right?

I want to make money.

Okay, first thing, we got

to make you presentable.

Put this on. I don't

want to wear your jacket.

Presentation is everything. Come on.

It's about making money. I'm

going to give you an opportunity.

Real nice smile.

This thing

don't even fit me.

Where's my change?

It was $3.

You know, I can get that

for $1 across the street.

Yeah, and you could have gotten
