Joe, suppose she tries again.

She could, you know.

Yeah, she could.

You know Rosalie.

When she's in love,

she's a complete maniac.

Don't get your dress wet for Mommy.

I won't.

Hey, Devo!

- Devo!

- How are you?

Devo?

Wait, Marlon...

...look who's here.

- Hey, wow. How you doing?

- I'm okay.

Who is this?

This is Joey.

- Joey?

- You know, the guy.

The guy.

Wow!

Joey.

- You bailed us out.

- Yeah, I bail out everybody.

I wanna make a new start,

wipe the slate clean.

I hear they may charge us

with attempted murder.

No, no, no. I'm not gonna prosecute.

If I prosecute you, they're gonna put

Rosalie in jail too. I don't want that.

Without me, they got no case.

Don't worry.

Hey, you know, what happened,

it wasn't personal or anything.

Yeah. Right. I mean...

...we didn't even know you or anything.

Yeah, we weren't friends

or anything, like now.

No. No. It wasn't the best way to meet.

We better get out of here

before they change their mind.

Yeah. Right.

So long, Joey.

I guess we'll see you around.

Okay.

- Oh, what a nice guy.

- Yeah.

Who's Rosalie?

Joey, I'm really, really sorry

about what happened.

You tried to tell me a long time ago, Devo.

I should have listened to you.

- I wasn't treating Rosalie right.

- Rosalie is a wonderful lady.

I know. I'm gonna make it up to her.

Good. Thanks for bailing me out.

Sure, sure. Just no more

shooting me in the head, okay?

Why not? It seems to have helped.

It's the truth. I got a bullet

in my head, I never felt better.

- Hi, Mom. Mommy!

- Oh, my babies!

Oh, Dominic, Dominic.

Don't worry, we're safe.

Don't worry.

So, what do you want?

I'm sorry I treat your daughter so bad.

I broke my marriage vows...

...but I don't break nothing

ever again, I swear.

- And this is for me, this candy?

- Well, I...

- Yeah, thank you.

- Sure.

You're very good boy.

Yeah, you know, I liked you once.

Maybe I like you again.

Except chocolate is not my favourite.

I like hard candy.

I'll remember-

No, no! I keep this for now.

Great. I can't wait to get home.

Dominic. Dominic, come.

You come with me. You come with me,

I give you some of my candy.

We go find Devo. Come.

Now, which one?

What's this?

What are you giving me flowers for?

- I want you to marry me again.

- What?

A new marriage, new life.

We have big ceremony.

You think I'm gonna make the same

mistake? We're not even divorced yet.

Rosalie! Rosalie!

Come here, please.

I love you. I bailed you out.

Don't do this to me again, Joey.

I tried to kill you.

- No! You saved my life.

- What?

Those sleeping pills you gave me,

they slowed down my bleeding.

It's what kept me alive.

The doctor told me.

Son of b*tch, you cheated on me all

these years. Why should I trust you now?

- Because I'm changed. I'm a new man.

- Why? Why now all of a sudden?

Because you shot me.

What?

Rosie, when I woke up in that hospital

and I found out what happened...

...I said to myself, "My God,

this woman, she loves me to death. "

She loves me so much she'd rather kill

me than see me with another woman.

She's ready to go to prison for me,

she loves me so much.

Oh, baby. That's all I needed,

just to feel your passion.

To know you still love me like a man,

not like a husband, like a man.

You are my husband. You should be

proud. I'm your wife. I was always proud.

Okay, you're right.

I am your husband. I'll be proud too.

I'll never cheat on you again. Never.

Oh, Rosie, I love you. Be my wife again.

Oh, you're crazy.

Don't you see? It's our destiny.

We're doomed to be together.

Like Romeo and Juliet.

- And I'll always be faithful to you.

- Like Romeo and Juliet.

Whatever.

You think Joey can be faithful to her?

Anything is possible.

He gave me a box of candy.

What if he isn't?

Then we shoot him again.

Just kidding.
