So, how do

you transport it?

Sam, please explain to mr. Maxim

how we transport it.

We use hasidic kids --

young hasidic kids, couriers.

I've heard of this.

Ultra-orthodox jews --

What, do they think

Uh, actually,

medicine for rich people.

This is your young

business partner?

No, no, no, no, no.

He works for me.

Hey, this is my operation.

Actually, no, we are.

We are partners.

What the f***

we should talk numbers.

What do you think?

Get me a f***ing

pack of cigarettes!

No, no, no. Okay, sam.

Let's talk numbers.

[ chuckles ]

I'm sorry about that,

mr. Maxim.

You're very aggressive,

hmm?

Excuse me.

[ sighs ]

Hey.

Hey.

Are you okay?

Well, I'm not getting

his f***ing cigarettes.

Okay.

Do you want to

come back inside, or...

No, I don't.

I was thinking

we should go to lithuania.

What do you think?

Sam, I don't even know

where lithuania is.

My grandmother lives there,

all right?

And I never met her.

My dad -- she's like us.

Sam.

No, I think

we make a cute couple.

You're just a...

Child, sweetie.

And how old are you?

How old are you?

Rachel,

he's gonna drop you!

Yosef told me

jackie is gonna drop you.

F*** you!

Sorry.

You don't know

anything about us,

So why don't you

keep your mouth shut?!

Yes, I do. Yes, I do.

Yosef told me

jackie is paranoid,

And if you get smart,

if you get too smart,

He's gonna drop you.

Sorry.

You know what?

You're the one that's paranoid.

If you want to come back inside,

f***ing come back inside.

[ breathing heavily ]

[ slow piano music plays ]

[ woman vocalizing ]

Sir.

What?

Are you jewish?

What?

You are jewish, no?

Yeah, of course.

Did you put on

a tefillin today?

No, I didn't. I'm traveling.

I forgot.

Oh, that's --

that's why you look so down.

You know,

we must never forget.

We have to renew the spot,

you know?

Yeah.

Do a mitzvah.

Here.

Where are you from?

You're from --

you're from new york?

Yeah.

I have family in, uh,
