How the f*** we look then?

I'll call him.

Don't get cute.

This sh*t is not a game.

Then I'll call.

I got it! I got it!

Sh*t is not a game, ma'am.

I'll get it. I'll get it!

I'm getting it!

Sit down, Frank! Sit!

Hello. Yeah, put the man on.

I can't very well put him on if

he's not here, now, can I, sport?

Who this? This Melanie

with the big titties?

Well, yes, it is,

and who am I speaking to?

You tell Frank that if he want

to speak to his wife again,

he need to get on

the phone right now.

Well, he can't get on the phone right now,

'cause he's not here.

Ciao. Look, I...

He knew my name.

What'd he want?

Didn't really say anything.

He just wanted to talk to you.

He sounded like a black guy.

Well, I might know the guy,

recognize his voice.

Maybe I should get it next time.

Mmm-mmm.

You don't have anything to say,

Frank, do you?

You know what I'm thinking?

What?

Unplug the phone.

Officer?

Sir.

Live in these premises?

I'm a friend of the family.

Is there a problem, Officer?

Oh.

No.

Just, uh...

You know, doing an investigation

into a possible burglary

in the neighborhood.

Uh...

You hear any

disturbances lately?

Well, maybe. Not personally, but no.

I really don't think so.

Those suits were mine.

Uh-huh.

Love these Furies.

My friend lives here,

Frank Dawson.

Who?

Frank Dawson.

He asked me to stop by and walk his dog.

That's why I'm here.

Really?

What, uh...

That's a...

What happened to your head there?

A car accident.

Damn buck jumped out at me.

I'm, uh...

I'm gonna have to ask you...

What happened to your eye?

I'm gonna have to ask

you to turn off the car.

Why?

I said turn off the car.

Why? Step out of the vehicle.

Turn off the car.

Step out of the goddamn vehicle!

Ow, ow.

Oh!

I don't know. I had a feeling,

but you're the one had it first.

Somebody that you hadn't planned on,

you didn't know about.

She's down there

picking up that phone.

We're not gonna

get through to him.

So we know they're up there,

but what are they saying?

Checking our temperature,

that's what they doing.

Seeing if we serious.

We should go down there,

show him something.

Like his wife's fingers.

Just like maybe

the wedding ring finger.

He already knows we got her.

No. No.

We need to make an impression.

They think it's a game.

Hey, he knows.

It's just a lot of money.

It's not a decision you make in an hour.

It's been two days,

Louis, going on three.

Her time is up.

Hey.

Don't start no sh*t

you can't finish, Louis.

You need to calm down.

You're not thinking this through.

What you think we doing here?

We ain't boosting no car.

We took a woman. Now what?

You want to be nice?

Oh, you got some

other sh*t on your mind.

F*** you. F*** you!

It ain't about what you feel.

It's about what you're gonna do.

How you handle yourself

in a situation like this.

The man want to

take his time, and

the woman wanna hang

up the phone on us.

The f*** we supposed to do?

Come on, man.

Stop touching me!

Either he cares what happens to her,

or he doesn't give a sh*t!

Finger isn't gonna do anything!

He gives us the finger,

tells us to shove it up our ass!

I'm not disagreeing with you.

You're right.

We need to find a way to

put him against the wall.

So, we go down there and

leave Richard here with her?

I thought about it, too.

Yeah, and what you think?

You go.

I'll stay. You got Cedric.

I think one of us has gotta stay here,

not just Richard.

In fact, I'm gonna insist on it.

All right, that's cool. I'll go.

Me and Cedric got it.

You gonna be all right,

just you and Richard here?

Yeah, we get along,

if I don't have to talk to him.

You all right, man?

Look like you got things on your mind.

You worried about something?

Oh, no, I'm not

worried about anything.

Never been happier in my life.

Ah!

Do you mind? It's my bag.

No, I don't, actually.

All right. Well, you can take my money,

my Coppertone, and Kleenex,

but leave my driver's license.

Took me months to get.

Melanie.

Is he upstairs?

Or did he leave the island?

Oh.

Yeah. "Oh."

Help! I can't swim!

Help!

Please!

You want to tell

us where he at now?

Yes! Please!

Ta-da.

Abracadabra.

You want a drink?

Yeah, screwdriver.

Coming right up.

Why don't you give

him a call, sweetie?

All right. I got

something to tell you first.

Think it's gonna mess up your scam,

but don't blame me, okay?

It's the timing.

What timing?

He filed for divorce two days

before he came down here.

When she gets back,

if she gets back,

the divorce papers

are waiting for her.

Huh.

You tell him he's never

gonna see his wife again.

He doesn't want to

see his wife again.

You just saved him maybe 100

grand a year in alimony.

He said that to you?

He didn't have to. I know him.

You told him not to go to

the cops, so he won't.

And legally, he's not supposed

to deal with extortionists.

So he's in the free and clear.

So we just let her go home?

And then he goes home and gets divorced,

but where does that leave you?

Look, I'm willing to cooperate with you

'cause I like you.

I feel bad for you. Aw, you do?

And I don't want to end up

in the f***ing ocean again.

Cooperate how?

What about if you...

You disappeared for 100 grand?

A hundred grand?

A hundred thousand.

I think that's a good

choice for you right now.

It ain't a million.

No, but it's not

a sack of wet sh*t either.

Do you want my help?

Listen, you're not getting

a million bucks from him.

You couldn't even get

it out of the country.

All I'm saying is quit

dreaming and get realistic.

You might as well get something.

But if she were dead,

I could get you more.

Oh.

Yeah. "Oh."

Hello.

Hey, Richard, it's me.

Where Louis?

I'll get him. No, hold on.

Hold on, Richard.

Listen, Richard.

I got something to tell you

and I need you to

tell Louis, all right?

We all set here, man.

You going to California.

Don't kid me.

You teasing me?

Don't tease me on this one.

No. I'm not kidding you.

I'm not kidding you at all.

For real? It's all set?

Yeah, we all set.

Now Louis upstairs, yeah?

He's always upstairs.

I think he's f***ing her.

He's f***ing us by f***ing her.

But, you know, I go up there,

and they're not doing it.

Hey, Richard, listen, uh...

I need you to take

the lady home tonight.

I think he fucks her

fast, but he keeps...

Richard, listen to me, man.

Listen very carefully.

I need you to tell

Louis to go and get a car.

Put the woman in the trunk of the car.

You take her on home, okay?

Uh-huh.

You tell Louis to follow you.

You take the woman in the house.

You put her in the closet.

You lock her up.

Cut the phone wires so you got

time to get away from the house.

Matter of fact,

tie her with them same phone wires.

You understand?

Richard? Huh, what?

Okay. Now, Richard,

this next part is very important.

You got to do it

without Louis knowing, too.

When he's gone,

I need you to go back to the house.

I need you to kill the lady.
