Go, go, go ahead. Look around.

It's yours for the night.

How about you?

Yeah, I'll be

right next door.

That's hers, too.

Okay.

It's nice to have friends,

ain't it?

Hey, go look. You relax, man.

Enjoy yourself.

Good morning.

Joshua told me you needed a

place to stay for the night.

I hope this was adequate.

Yes. Thank you.

I need to go. Excuse me.

So go.

When I came in this morning,

you were spread across the

bed like an old throw rug.

What happened

to my clothes?

I gave them to the valet with

instructions to burn them.

You told them to

burn my clothes?

Give me a break.

There are a few shops

right down the street.

I'm sure we'll be able to find a way

to replace your fabulous wardrobe.

I just want my clothes back.

Not on your life.

I'm taking you

shopping today

if I have to drag you

kicking and screaming.

Why are you so nice to me?

Just try one more.

S'il vous plat.

It's nice.

It's not for me.

No?

How about this?

Any better?

Everything okay in there?

Everything is fine.

You know, people in New York are

still talking about your fight.

Let them talk.

You planning on sleeping

in the hallway?

No. I'll stay next

door with Joshua.

Is that it?

You two got

something going?

Cynthia,

I'm not your toy.

If you want a toy to play with,

talk to Russell, not to me.

You want to carry this?

There. Come on.

Is this your ball?

Take some money.

Oh, Christ.

I'll do it.

Well, finally.

I mean, I'll fight.

Oh.

But first you have to help me

to take care of some business.

All right, talk to me.

I need to open

a bank account.

I like that kind of talk.

Not in my name, we'll make up a

name. Don't ask me why, just do it.

That's my condition.

I'll call my accountant

first thing in the morning.

Anything else?

Yes. I have

to move out of here.

Do I have the right to ask what

brought these sudden changes on?

Look, I'm gonna fight for you.

I have to live like a fighter.

This place is too nice

to me, too soft, too easy.

I see.

Are you sure it isn't because you've

found something a little softer,

a little easier out on the street today?

Don't answer that.

That's "My business. My business!".

I'm sick of this sh*t!

Get out!

Get the f*** out!

And take that goddam cripple with you.

In the morning you call Russell

and you tell him where you're staying.

From now on, you deal with Russell,

and only with Russell.

Our relationship is strictly business.

The way it should have been

from the beginning. You got that?

And you owe me for these.

I'll call Russell in the morning.

You don't forget to call your accountant.

I'll think about it.

Yeah. Think about it.

Don't fall

in them damn skates, boy!

Excuse me. No, no. Please,

sir, go right ahead.

What is this, a dance, man?

He's got on a damn skirt.

Scotland.

Scotland? Scotland's sh*t. Kick

his Scotland ass. It's not that bad.

Go up his dress. I'd like to

see if he got any drawers on.

Take your time,

take your time now.

Don't be shaking

hands with him.

Come on, man,

come on. Now...

Damn.

Look at all this.

Get off my car.

Move, move, move.

Get off my car, man.

Get off the damn car.

Yeah, that's it,

that's it, that's it.

That's it. One more round,

one more round. Almost there.

That's it. Yeah,

that's all right. That's it.

Lay it on him, that's it.

You got it, man.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Let go of

him, Lyon. He's gone. Let go of him.

Hey, let him go, let him go,

let him go. Let him go.

He's gone. Let him go, Lyon,

come on. Yeah, that's right.

Be ready with the cash, Flash. Okay.

All right. All right.

Yeah.

I'm back. Who's back?

We're back in town.

That's right, baby.

After you, ladies.

Moustafa, it's your turn.

Mommy, does this mean

I can have a bike?

Honey, why don't you

go in the other room

so I can talk to

Mr. Eldridge, okay?

You could draw me

a pretty picture.

I'm gonna go

draw myself a bike.

Well, that would be

very nice, sweetie.

Cute.

I just don't know how I

couldn't have known about it.

Well, husbands do

this all the time.

Yeah. Secret little

insurance policy,

want to make sure the wife and kids

will be taken care of, you know?

Without freaking them out.

You know what I mean?

Well, you'll get one

of those every month.

You know how the post office is around

here, so I'll be bringing them by myself,

if you don't mind.

Oh, no, that's fine. Yes.

Thank you, Mr. Eldridge.

Don't thank me. Thank the

man who set up the policy.

May he rest in peace.

Oh, just do me

one little favor.

I know it's something

that he would have wanted.

Well, what is that?

Get the little girl a bike.

All right,

you have a nice day now.

Yes! That's it, that's it.

I like that. Yeah.

Hey, hey. That's bad for you.

Destroys your concentration.

Well, it looked

good to me.

It looked good to me,

but get on out there, boy.

Hey, you guys.

What are you doing?

What is that?

Like my new bike?

Yeah.

Bye, you guys.

Bye.

Bye.

See you tomorrow.

Moustafa, wake up.

He's here, downstairs!

Come on, let's go.

Nicole!

Come on inside, honey.

Think he see us?

He'll be back.

All right.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Okay, I'm taking some bets.

Lyonheart five to fight in the pool.

No wading.

Yeah!

Get up!

That's it.

Better luck next time, man.

We don't need

to go Rambo, huh? That's it.

Yeah! Hey.

We did it. My boy did it.

Who is Helene Gaultier?

According to the bank,

she's the one they said cashed

that phony insurance check.

She used to be married

to his brother.

He's just trying to help

the woman out, that's all.

Is he f***ing her?

Cynthia, you're one hard,

cold, sick b*tch, you know that?

I asked you a question.

B*tch, the man don't even

step inside her apartment.

She don't know where the

damn money's coming from.

Well, as his

self-appointed manager,

I'm counting on you

to keep him out of trouble.

You mean keep

him making money.

That's right.

For me. And for you.

Start keeping

an eye on those two.

Hi. See my new bike?

I said that's a nice bike.

Is that French? My daddy

used to talk French.

I've got to go now.

Who's that?

Nicole.

Okay, you go home right now.

You go home right now.

You know why we're here.

Don't force us to get rough

in front of little girl.

Without me they'll

be on the street.

Tell your sad stories

to the court-martial.

We're just supposed to take

you back, any way we can.

Just give me one week to get

the money for them. One week.

Your time was up

in the desert,

and we still owe you

for that one, f***er.

Go to hell.

I show you hell.

Grab him!

Come on.

This is the end.

Let's go. Let's go!

Lion.

If you're in some kind of trouble,

maybe we ought to know about it.

And you spying on me,

I should know about it, too.

Okay, now you know. Maybe we should

lay all our cards on the table.

Do you hear that?

Either you take a ride with the

cops or you take a ride with me.

Now what's it gonna be stud?

What about them?

If I was you I wouldn't be
