for a little while, all right.

I'll take him to the precinct.

We'll put a buzz out to

the units, keep their eyes out.

For a cat!

Ma, do me a favor.

Jimmy has food

at the house, okay?

Jackie's gonna take you over.

Please make sure

you eat something.

I love you, ma.

You okay?

How can I be okay?

Do you know

where my money is?

He left me penniless.

You should have died

ten years ago,

when you were

supposed to, you bastard.

Oh, I lived with

such false hope.

Maybe I could have had

a few more dollars in the bank.

Thank you, sal.

Do you see this?

This is your father's funeral.

I know. I gotta go.

Can't go anywhere.

I'll be back as soon as I can.

Ma, everything's gonna be fine.

I'm sure he stashed

some money at the house.

We'll look when I get home.

It'll be fun.

- I love you.

- Oh.

I'll be back soon.

Mm.

Do you know

where my money is?

On your finger?

Ugh!

Here we go.

Thanks.

Look at that.

Perfect, huh?

Jackie looked pissed.

She'll get over it.

Does she know about,

whatever this is?

Nah, I wanna surprise her.

Come on, pal,

first stop Van dam street.

First?

Now, sal,

what's with the mystery?

I said I'd help

whatever this is.

You're gonna see

when we get there.

You know we gotta find

Connie's cat

before it gets dark.

I'm dead meat

if I don't find him.

I don't come come with that...

Don't you worry.

You're gonna have plenty of time

to find the cat.

Hey, probably home by now, huh?

- Found a guy's ear today.

- No sh*t.

A dog ate it.

So, he probably

doesn't want it back.

Okay...

Handbags.

Handbags?

Designer handbags.

They're knockoffs.

Very popular with the ladies.

Where did you get all this?

They,

they made their way onto a list

of confiscated items in a bust.

They're stolen?

Missing!

I don't wanna bother anybody

i work with,

and I trust you.

So, how does this

help Mary?

I gotta buy it.

Cash!

We drop them off,

it's over.

Come on, sal!

What? I want you to take

one of these for Connie.

Oh, man, sal, come on!

Look, how pretty.

What? You worry too much.

We load 'em and we unload 'em.

That's it.

All that's gonna fit

in your truck.

Did you find him yet?

I didn't call, did I?

Maybe he went home, honey.

I haven't been home all day.

Well, just letting you know,

she's out of surgery.

She's doing fine.

We're just waiting around

to see her.

All right, good.

That's great.

You go to the wake yet?

Yeah, I'm with sal right now.

He's hanging in there.

All right, well, I don't know

what time I'm gonna get home,

but I guess,

I'll look for Leonard

if I have to.

You know,

i didn't need this, Dominic.

Honey, don't cry. Honey,

please, please, you're gonna

make yourself sick, all right.

I'll find the cat.

Everything's gonna turn

out okay, all right, baby?

I'll find him.

Whatever.

All right, relax.

Talk to you later.

Sal, I gotta find this cat.

She's in tears, with her mom,

the cat, the whole thing today.

Dommy, one, two, three,

we make the drop.

We find the cat, I promise.

That's it.

Oh, sh*t.

What the f***, sal?

Okay, this is not a problem.

Don't you worry about a thing.

How long is this gonna

take now, sal?

Enough with

the complaining,

i already got a wife.

Sh*t!

Everything okay?

Hi, officer,

just a flat tire.

You know, you're missing

a license plate on that tow.

I am very sorry about that.

My name is sal

and I'm with the one twelve.

I'm just helping a buddy move.

It's a short run.

Best dressed movers

I've ever seen.

Uh, a weak.

- My condolences.

- Thanks.

You know, I got a buddy

over at the one twelve, Reno.

And you admit to know him.

You do know Reno.

All right, you be good.

Take care.

You stay safe, okay?

We're back in business.

That was uncomfortable, sal.

Wait a minute, shoes are

uncomfortable. That was

f***ing painfully close.

Would you relax?

It's me. I got this.

I got this!

Getting exciting, isn't it?

No. No.

Come on.

Stop f***ing around, all right?

You're digging it.

Let me ask you a question.

You think dom's even

looking for Leonard?

He better be,

or else he knows there's

a real problem between us.

Huh, really?

What do mean really?

What does that mean?

Why are you asking me this?

Well, maybe because

you've been breaking

the guy's chops like...

His whole life.

So? That's my job.

I love him.

Who else is

supposed to do it?

Hm...

Don't get me wrong,

but maybe...

It's dom's way of getting even

with you for doing your job.

What, are you kidding me?

Dom?

Mm-mm.

It's not him.

He doesn't got it in him.

It's not like

he's like his father

or anything.

But sometimes, to be honest,

i wish he had

a little bit of that in him.

That's not even funny.

Like, don't even say

something like that.

You know what I mean.

Look,

I'm not a shrink or nothing.

No sh*t.

Sometimes, I think...

That dom's whole

map up session thing,

you know...

Is just his way

of dealing with everything.

It's like...

He's above everything,

so he can look down

and feel safe,

and be away from

all the shitheads

and guys like his dad.

And you, doctor?

Up your's.

Oh, I know...

It's not like

dom is into sharing,

he's not Mr. like,

"oh, you hurt my feelings...

This is what I'm thinking."

I'll tell you one thing.

He better be looking

for that cat.

Oh, god.

Two dollars.

Thanks, have a nice day.

Will do.

You have a nice day, too.

Thank you.

So easy.

Let me see what you got.

What you get?

Oh, man.

I got more.

Yeah?

That's nice, but I'm not eating

anything that's been

in your pants, dude.

All right, more shack for me.

What's going on now?

We're going in stealth.

Sal, they still gonna

see your truck.

We're meeting them here?

Him.

We're meeting him here.

Which brings me to asking you

a really big favor.

Now you know, I wouldn't do this

unless I was absolutely sure

it was the right way to go.

I'd like you

to make the exchange.

Me?

Nah, I'm not doing it.

Okay, just listen.

A, he doesn't know

what I look like.

B, let's say he does make me

as a cop, then this

whole thing goes bad.

So that's why I'm here.

It's just like you

to not to tell me till now.

Where the hell

are you gonna be?

I'm gonna be right there,

keeping an eye on you.

There's really nothing

to concern yourself about.

This whole thing scares

the sh*t out of me, sal.

Okay, just stop. That's enough.

It's me. Would I let

anything happen to you?

You're gonna be fine.

And you can guarantee that.

It's handbags, for Christ sake.

What are you worried about?

I got to tell you, sal.

If it wasn't

for Mary's operation

you're crossing

a f***ing line here.

Don't you think I don't know

what a big favor

you're doing me?

Don't you think I'm gonna owe

big time for this?

Are we good?

So, we meet.

You're rocky?

Yeah.

I gotta see the bags.

Eighty eight boxes,

and 24 in each.

Women, they,

they love these things.

They love cash, too.

I can be assured this is all

the same merchandise?

Let's get this over with.
