MONEY TRAIN:

Merry Christmas.

Watch it!

Thank you very much.

We wish you a Merry Christmas ...

- Check this dude.

- He looks like the Five-0.

Are you a cop?

He's no Five-0. He's been drinking.

He's checking out the D.

We have two Hispanic males.

Let's see if they end the game.

- This looks familiar.

- He's got a slice. Stay alert.

He's got my ring.

Sh*t! He's wearing my watch.

Nobody go

until you see him pull his lapel.

- Sh*t!

- F***ing white boy!

Stay!

Get out of my way!

Move!

- Get out of the way!

- Come on, grandma.

- No laying down on the job!

- I'm glad my pain amuses you.

Come on. Move!

T.A.!

Slow down.

You've got cops down there?

All trains north and south of

Wall Street Station stop and stay.

- Doesn't he ever sleep?

- Yeah, during the day. In a coffin.

- You're stopping trains. Why?

- We've got cops in the tunnel.

- Where is the revenue train?

- At Wall Street.

- Send it through.

- We've got cops on the track.

Nothing stops the money train.

- The money train!

- I've got a new plan.

Get out of my way!

- Here's the cash.

- You sold a lot of tokens today.

Watch it!

- Freeze!

- They're not stopping.

- I don't believe this sh*t!

- We're cops.

- Back up, men.

- Look. it's the Transit Twins.

- Did you have to shoot him?

- He's a f***ing kid.

- We're only following orders.

- Does he look like a train robber?

Don't try to hang the blame on us.

- You ran him down the track.

- What did you say?

You're not gonna hit him ...

I'm gonna hit him.

Chief, the detectives are here.

Sit down.

- Don't bleed on my chair.

- No sir. Chief Patterson.

That report says you're brothers.

You are a negro.

He is white.

Is somebody trying to jack me off?

- No. we're foster brothers.

- I ran away from this orphanage ...

Shut up!

Today, you caused my money train

to arrive 46 minutes late.

When my train is late, I take it

as a personal sign of disrespect.

The revenue collection of the entire

subway system is under my command.

My train. My people. My money.

No one dictates the movements

of that train without my permission.

- Am I making myself clear?

- As a bell. sir. Your train.

- Shut up!

- Yes. sir.

Now ... any questions?

Why did you send the train through

when you knew we were in the tunnel?

Your situation last night

didn't affect me.

Your men shot that kid to sh*t

over a rope chain.

Yeah, they shot him to sh*t ... and

you can't buy publicity like that.

That boy is a goddamn hero.

Thanks to his sacrifice

the word went forth today:

You f*** with my train

and I'll kill you!

Now I'm gonna send one more message:

I don't like you.

So don't f*** with my train again.

If you do, we will tangle ass ...

... and you will lose.

You're dismissed.

I hate bastards like that.

You can't put a price on human life.

- He's worried about his schedule.

- You know what I'd like to do?

- Shoot him?

- No. I'd like to take his train.

- Take the candy from the baby.

- You say the word.

- Word.

- I'm there.

- Let's do it.

- If I didn't have this badge ...

- We're not nuns.

- We're not taking the train.

Too late.

- I sure miss the old neighbourhood.

- You should come back more often.

- Are you coming in?

- No, I've got a date.

With a girl ...

or a deck of cards?

- Do you think I'm gambling again?

- Yeah, I can see it in your eyes.

- You've got a suspicious mind.

- I know you.

Have you got any cash?

- I'm buying your Christmas present.

- With my money?

Yeah, so don't be stingy.

- You never cease to amaze me.

- Don't count it. I trust you.

- Will you really buy me a present?

- I love you.

- Then give me my money.

- Where's your Christmas spirit?

In your pocket.

No ties or cologne, all right?

Remember where you are.

You'd better change that walk.

Are you all right, man?

- 1.000.

- I'm in.

- 1.000.

- I'm in.

See the grand

and kick it a grand.

- Not me.

- I'm out.

I'm gonna have to kick it to 5,000.

Too rich for me.

Charlie ...

are you gonna eat or play cards?

Sorry. I'm making a mess.

- I'll call you.

- With what? You're light.

Gentlemen, say hello to Oyster.

Mother-of-pearl.

Charlie, let me get you a parachute.

Your brother better get here soon

or he'll be an only child.

- Okay, nobody move.

- Is that you? My brother?

- Thank God you're here!

- What the hell is going on here?

- You brought the money, right?

- 300 bucks.

- He owes Mr. Brown 15.000.

- 15.000?

This is no time to be cheap.

- Drop him.

- He's kidding.

- They don't have a sense of humour.

- I'm tired of this sh*t.

You're the man.

Okay, let's make a deal.

Here's the 300 bucks.

- The rest, you get in a few days.

- I'll pay you, I swear to God.

Okay, reel him in.

You guys are great. I was kidding

about the sense of humour thing.

- I thought they were gonna drop me.

- You said you'd stopped this sh*t.

- I thought I couldn't lose.

- You say the same thing every time.

- I'm tired of saving your ass.

- I'd have got out of that sh*t.

If I hadn't saved you,

you'd be a chalk outline right now.

I have changed at a basic level.

I was up there. 51 stories.

Dangling. Imminent death.

Suddenly ... it was like

Buddha consciousness.

I've read about it.

God spoke to me. She said,

'You have got to stop gambling."

- I bet $10 you can't do it.

- Make it $20.

- Where's your sense of humour?

- You've been drinking dog piss.

It's good for you.

Let's see that drunk walk again.

Say hello to Grace Santiago.

She's gonna be working with us.

- Hi, guys. Nice to meet you.

- How are you doing?

Welcome aboard.

- She is smokin'.

- I think I'm in love.

All quiet by the D.

Okay, we've got a Christmas shopper.

A white male. 19.

Dressed all black.

He's interested.

His girlfriend's after him.

She's dragging him away.

- Did you do much decoy?

- Six months in the outer boroughs.

This transfer

was definitely a lucky break.

- They say you guys are the best.

- Modesty prevents me ...

No. it doesn't. We are the best.

His arm's swinging. He looks like

he forgot how to take a whiz.

He got that from me.

- Where are you from?

- The Bronx.

- Are you living by yourself?

- Yeah.

- Keep watching the D.

- We've got something going on.

What have we got here?

Look at those big hands.

- Let's take him home.

- I'm into it.

Hey, honey,

we're gonna take you home.

You want to come home?

You're a fine-looking man.

- Don't fight us.

- Look at that face.

We're gonna love you.

- We're gonna chew you up.

- Come with us.

Shouldn't we break it up?

Hey! That's my man.

Get your hands off my man.

- Do you want to get hurt?

- We didn't know he was your man.

Get out of here!

- I can't trust you for one minute.

- They were huge.

She's beautiful.

Wait right there.

What are you looking at?

Alone at last.

- May I help you?

- We can help each other.

- What do you want, sir?

- I want to ask you a question.

Do you know what it's like

to smell your own flesh burning?

Hand out the cash. b*tch.
