there's always

a little damsel in distress.

What the f***

are you talking about?

Marley. Think you can

save her again?

- l'll kill you.

- Yeah?

With the f***ing cops in there?

Go ahead, motherf***er.

You stay away from her.

Too f***ing late.

Where is she?

Don't let me go,

you'll never f***ing know.

What are you doing, man?

What am l doing?

Tell you what l'm doing.

Tomorrow, the factory

just off the highway,

Andrew Street,

me and you there.

High noon.

Do some western stuff.

We'll go boom boom

and see who walks away.

Marley, she's not in this, man.

lt's between us.

She's a means to an end,

and if you're a second late,

she ain't blowing no more

birthday candles out. Feel me?

Oh, f***.

I wish I wouIdn't've survived

in the bank that day.

I wish they wouId have kiIIed me.

He knew.

He knew aII aIong, probabIy.

He knew I hadn't toId him

the whoIe story.

l thought we were finished.

l don't have anywhere else to go.

You know, l can't tell if there's

any good left in you, or...

if you're just

plain rotten to the core.

Sometimes l don't

even know myself anymore.

There's still time, Liam.

There's still time to put up the deck

before you play the final hand.

Don't let this go any further.

They got a little girl, Cosmo...

and they're gonna kill her.

l f***ed up.

Now, you listen to me, kid.

l've already been

in one war that was a lie,

and l don't want to make it two...

so you better

start leveling with me now.

Okay.

Okay, okay.

I went to the Cemetery to see Dawn.

I wanted to be with her again,

one more time.

But something happened.

I Iooked, and there was this girI.

Just her very essenCe

reminded me of Dawn.

I beCame obsessed.

She represented something to me,

something good,

something that I had

that I had Iost.

I needed it, I needed her,

I needed...

I needed whatever

she represented baCk in my Iife.

But there's more.

Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t.

Can l help you, sir?

No, no, thanks. l'm fine.

Window number three is open

if you'd like to make a transaction.

Nope. No, l was just

actually leaving. Thanks.

- Okay. Have a good day, then.

- Yeah.

F***.

You hear what you're saying, man?

You're talking like a crazy person.

Crazy people,

they talk like that.

She's just a chick

you want to bone, man.

No, man, no.

No, it's more than that.

More than that...

lt's insane, what you're

f***ing talking about, man.

Just talk to the girl.

Come on, what've you got to lose?

Everything.

Right now l ain't got sh*t

to offer her.

You got your job.

l'm a garbage man, man!

So what?

Pays the f***ing bills, right?

lt's gotta be right--

the moment, me, everything.

She's gotta know

that l can be more than this, man.

That sounds

all romantic and sh*t, but...

lt's the only way.

That's the only way.

l think your brain got burnt up

in that fire, that's what l think.

You gonna help me or not?

Could get in a lot of sh*t

for something like this, man.

Five grand.

l'll give you $5,000.

Five grand, that's it?

Come on, man,

l've known you a long time.

Dude, l hang with you every day.

l don't know you at all.

l'm asking you as a friend.

As a friend.

Dude, if you had a friend,

which you don't,

they would not let you

go through with this.

l'm asking, man.

You know, America was built on labor.

Look at this sh*t now.

Yeah, it's real f***ed up.

My uncle, Sweet Dick Willy,

used to work in this factory here.

Now that nigga's on crack.

Oh, shut up!

Shut up!

Shut your mouth!

- No!

- Get out!

- No, you can't!

- l said get out!

Get away!

How's this work, again?

Come here.

Listen, listen.

You're just gonna scare

the hell out of everybody,

all right, but in the end,

nobody's gonna get hurt.

How do we not get caught?

Come on, man, listen.

l did my research already,

all right?

There's only one security guard

on Saturdays,

and he's an ex-traffic cop, all right?

The cat takes a lunch break

same time every shift,

and he's always gone

at least 40 minutes.

So, wait...

l break in, you intervene,

l get scared and run off,

that's it?

The cops'll be on their way already.

You won't have no choice

but to get the hell on.

Why me?

Why you think you?

You're the only one l trust.

Wait, wait...

Shut the f*** up, man.

l can't understand your stupid ass.

Speak English.

You're gonna tell me f*** off

and speak English, you dumb prick?

l'm Scottish for a start,

you fag-looking motherf***er.

Can l talk to you for a second, man?

l'm a little busy.

lt involves money.

lt always does.

Not like this.

You gotta go, you gotta go.

l'm listening.

That place we used to work--

can l meet you there tomorrow?

Are you the pope

of Greenwich Village?

Why can't we talk right here?

l just don't want him to hear.

What the f***'s your problem?

You still pissed 'cause my cousin

got you arrested?

No, dick,

it's 'cause l don't trust him.

That matters?

Look, man, no Gordy, no job.

He's too f***ing volatile.

What the f***

you gonna do about it!

You know what,

he is a bit of a caveman.

Tomorrow?

Tomorrow.

l don't get it.

Why doesn't he just talk to her?

l said the same thing,

man, l don't know.

What, is he f***ing p*ssy-whipped?

Sh*t, if a n*gger

really wanted p*ssy that bad,

wouldn't he just pay some ho,

say some dope?

Swain, what are you

bringing me this sh*t for?

l ain't gonna take a f***ing risk

like that by myself.

$5,000 in a fake bank heist?

Give me a break.

l get it. This is about

the Caribbean for you, isn't it?

Hula-hula, right?

This is your chance

to put your Speedos on, hang out.

This is your chance to own up.

Liam did all this f***ing homework.

He knows all the security,

all that sh*t.

l don't know about this, man.

A bank job? Come on.

That's f***ing crazy.

We could do

some serious time for that sh*t.

Hang on a second.

l'm still lost.

lf he's expecting you to do this

and we show up instead,

he's gonna know that you sent us.

What's stopping him

from going to the cops?

He becomes an even bigger hero.

Well, then we tell on him.

l don't f***ing know.

The last thing he wants

is for this to come back to him.

- F*** it.

- F*** it.

- We're doing it.

- Let's do this.

- You want to do this?

- Let's f***ing do this.

- Are you serious?

- Abso-f***ing-lutely.

You fellas complain about

the liquor stores, dollar stores.

With this, we won't get caught.

The penalties are the same.

- Exactly.

- The payout's huge.

You know how much money's

in that f***ing bank?

You want to make nickels and dimes

or f***ing dollars?

You can spend the rest

of your anorexic life on your pipe.

Screw you, all right?

l was just f***ing sayin'.

All right, if l have to,

l'll take care of Case.

What are you going to do

when it's over?

Soon as we get the money,

l'm off on a f***ing beach

somewhere.

Get going.

Don't forget your suntan lotion.

Come on. Hey, come on now.

Come on now. Hippity-scop.

Are you serious about this sh*t?
