King of New York Page #4

And I've been encouraged...

both in public

and in private...

that where there's

a will to help...

there's a way to do it.

So on behalf of

the neighborhood council...

myself, and New York City...

I want to thank you

for what you've done...

and I ask

for your continued support...

until we have the kind

of General Hospital...

this borough needs.

I'm gonna reach out

I'm gonna take it

I'm gonna make it all right

Dream on

For all

that could be right

We can make it happen

We can make it paradise

Dream on

For a better way

We'll join our hands together

And build a brand-new day

Dream on

We're reporting live

from the benefit...

at the Harlem Ballroom...

where city luminaries

are gathered...

to celebrate

the long-term project...

to rebuild the Community

General Hospital.

As one prominent local

politician said to me...

"It's a proud moment

for the city...

"and all New Yorkers."

Officials from state

and city agencies...

Roy, he's a movie star.

Frank is

a f***ing movie star now.

Oh, my God.

Help me, gentlemen.

A toast.

Come on, toast.

Frank. He made it.

F***ing King of New York.

The King of New York.

King.

We, on the other hand...

we waste our time

interrogating witnesses...

lifting fingerprints...

my favorite and yours...

court orders... right, Roy?

Court orders so Frank's

Park Avenue attorney...

can get him out

in ten minutes.

Ten minutes later,

he's on the street.

I thought we were what's right.

I thought the law

counted for something.

But this whole system

favors the scumbag.

We make, what, thirty-six

thousand dollars a year?

Thirty-six five.

Thirty-six five. Thank you.

I was the best man

at your wedding...

Thank you very much.

36.5 to risk our lives

every night of the week...

and Frank gets rich

on killing people.

There's only one way

to get Frank.

We can make it look

like a rival gang...

if that makes you feel better.

You gonna shoot everybody

you can't arrest, Dennis?

That's not your f***ing...

You know what my problem

is with you?

I can't do my job.

My job is to protect

the people of this city...

and you won't let me.

You do anything stupid,

I'm coming after your ass.

With or without you,

I'm gonna get rid of Frank.

So now you know.

This guy belongs

in a f***ing rubber nut squad.

He's a nut.

You know, Roy...

every time Frank kills

somebody out there...

it's our fault.

Can you live with that?

I can't.

Something that you've

looked at all your life...

it crosses your mind that

you'll never see it again.

I've lost a lot of time.

It's gone.

From here on,

I can't waste any.

If I can have a year or two,

I'll make something good.

I'll do something.

Something good.

Just one year.

That's all.

I want to get

into a significant instrument...

or a series of instruments...

with respect to the buying

of the dollar against the yen...

not against the Deutsche mark...

or against the Swiss franc

or any other currency.

That's Salvador Tito,

Miguel Mata...

Emilio El Zapa,

Arthur Clay, Lawrence Wong.

Take a good look, counselor.

You represent the man

responsible for that.

Are you out of your mind?

You're a lawyer.

You're a member of the bar.

How can you be part of this?

Part of what?

Can't pretend you don't know

what he's doing out there.

I don't pretend anything.

You got evidence, prosecute.

By then it'll be too late.

Bring him in.

We're gonna go see

Frank, all right?

Yo, Joey D, what's up, my boy?

You gonna dis me?

You ain't gonna introduce me to

your friends?

I want to make

a good impression on them.

I want to know who

I'm selling drugs to.

Know what I'm saying?

You don't sell drugs,

my brother.

You shoot people.

I'm unemployed.

Ain't nobody left.

I can't help you with that.

Where you going?

This is Axel Carter.

How you doing?

How's Los Angeles?

Hot.

Listen, you want me to

get you something to drink?

If you don't mind,

I want to get right down to it.

You got a lot of sh*t to move...

and Joey thinks I might be

interested in pursuing it.

Taste it.

Sh*t.

Price tag's twelve million.

Cash.

I can get you six...

and I'll give you another six...

after I recoup

from street sales.

Half the cash,

you get half the drugs.

It's all or nothing.

Tell you what.

I'll leave Carlos here...

to walk through

the rest of the sh*t...

and I'll be back later.

Good.

So, how far to the sh*t?

It's right next door.

Come on.

I'll see you later.

Got your stuff?

Take him upstairs.

Come on. Let's go.

Let me get a light.

Back!

Watch out!

Follow me, motherf***er!

Party time, motherf***er!

Come on, you son of a b*tches!

I'll kill you, motherfuckers!

Die, motherfuckers!

Get off the f***ing car!

Yeah, you motherf***er?!

It's a motherfucking cop.

Oh, sh*t!

Nobody rides for free,

motherf***er!

Sh*t! F*** you!

F*** you, motherf***er!

Yo, what's up?

How's your f***ing paint job,

Frank?

Get in front of him.

Get the f*** in front of him.

Get the f*** out of the way!

Move your f***ing car!

Move it out of the way.

Jesus.

They're gone.

I don't believe this.

I don't f***ing believe this.

Wait.

What's that?

Nothing!

Come on, Jimmy.

Me and you, buddy.

Where's Frank?

Tired of being

his f***ing flunky?

I see he left you.

Come on, Jimmy.

Where you at?

Me and you, Jimmy.

Hey, Jimmy, guess what?

I got a piece

of chicken here...

you chicken-eating motherf***er!

Be like a man!

Just me and you.

Jimmy, let's talk it out,

brother.

Where the chicken at?

Yo, black. Get me a soda?

Where's my soda, black?

You know I like soda.

What?

Where's your girlfriend,

motherf***er?

Hey, scumbag!

Shut the f*** up!

Kill me, you motherf***er!

Just go ahead the f*** on!

Go on!

All right. You're not bad.

You got to relax.

Just relax.

Can you take a breath?

Let me help you.

I got the motherf***er.

Yo, motherf***er.

Just kill me.

I love you.

I love you, Tommy.

Daddy.

What am I going

to do without him?

We extend our hands

together...

in prayer

and supplication...

You motherfucking...

Hey. You.

Over there!

Bring his ass over here.

Come on, get up!

Get the f*** up!

Where's Frank?

You want to go see Frank?

Don't touch me.

Don't f***ing touch me!

Yo, chill.

Sh*t, man. Listen.

You gotta listen to me.

Frank... they

gave me some names.

I checked them out.

They were f***ing cool.

I had no reason to think

they were cops.

Those motherfuckers...

Those motherfuckers,

they set me up!

They set me up

just as much as you, Frank.

You gotta believe me.

It ain't like it seems.

Just tell me why.

Don't lie to me.

Just tell me why.

It was the money,

all right?

It was the f***ing money.

Don't touch me.

They offered me more money

than I'd ever seen in my life.

I'd be

in the protection program.

I was out. I was free.

You can understand that.

Where's the money now?

We've got it.

He was carrying it around.

Bury it with him.

I'm sorry, Frank!

Frank, I'm sorry!
