I see what you're saying.

Stop the train near the rink.

Use the ladder to climb up

and take away the cash.

- We disappear into the park.

- It'll never work.

How much do you think we can get?

Three or four million. at least.

- We could be rich.

- Free. And our people deserve it.

- Say it loud.

- I'm black and I'm proud.

We're talking

"Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous".

- We could take cruise ships.

- Island to island.

We'd be like boat people, but rich.

We could just buy an island.

Now you're talking.

We could buy Mali.

- Or Bali.

- Tahiti.

We wouldn't have to put up

with any more crap from Patterson.

- We don't deserve that.

- Let the sharks eat him.

- Let's do it.

- Here's what I'm saying ...

Talk to me.

The best possible time

to pull this off is New Year's Eve.

It'll be loaded with currency.

It'll just be fat!

- Where did you learn that word?

- MTV Raps. It's my heritage.

What do you think?

Charlie. come back to earth.

- Calm down.

- What are you talking about?

- We're not going to rob the train.

- Why not?

We're cops ... "Serve, protect,

break a mother's neck."

- We can do this.

- No ...

It would be no problem.

I'm telling you. It's easy.

Put that away before somebody thinks

you got it for Christmas.

- Don't let me interrupt.

- It was too hot inside.

So you're getting down. Salsa.

I love this. I grew up with this.

I'm from the Bronx.

Let's see what you've got.

I'm very surprised.

E Street.

- See that?

- You're teaching me something now.

You've got to learn from somebody.

Watch out now.

I might throw a spin on you.

- It's rough the first time.

- We need to get some practice in.

- We were dancing.

- That was nice.

- Don't just leave me hanging.

- Slow music? No ...

- I don't dance to slow music.

- Don't you like slow music?

How would it look for me

to step up to you like that ...

... and start dancing with you close

and stuff like that?

That could work.

- I've got a confession to make?

- What's that?

This is the first time

I ever danced with a cop.

Me. too.

- I hope that's your gun.

- Yeah, it's poking me, too.

Maybe it's my gun.

- Put your stuff in the back.

- Put your stuff in the back.

I think I should go in.

- We don't want people talking.

- We wouldn't want that.

You know how the precinct is.

You go ahead.

Good night.

Grace ...

- I enjoyed dancing with you.

- I enjoyed it, too.

How goes?

A pina colada?

You've got to get up

you've got to get up in the morning .

I knew I shouldn't have told you

where I hide my keys.

Get up. Time to play.

Say no more, man.

It's hot in here.

- It's like a sauna.

- Don't touch the window.

- Fresh air.

- It's cold outside.

- You've got to get fresh air.

- You're not in the Alps.

- It's good for your lungs.

- Not in New York.

You smell like you haven't been

back to your place to wash.

- I've been out.

- Grace?

I've been out with Grace all night,

and God, I'm feeling good.

All night?

All night, and I feel all right.

Did you try some of your

cheap-ass moves?

- A gentleman never tells.

- What?

A gentleman never tells.

Then you can go ahead and tell me.

How did it go?

We ... I ain't gonna say.

Did you kiss her?

You kissed her.

- Shouldn't you be home in bed?

- Too much energy.

I thought

you worked that out last night.

I've still got

a little something left.

- You want to go at it?

- What? Boxing?

Come on, let's go a few rounds.

Don't hold back.

Are you sure you want to do this?

Sneaky!

Get out of here.

I ain't going nowhere.

Okay ... good.

- You want to talk about last night?

- You mean about you and Charlie?

About you and me,

and the reason you backed off.

Are you gonna box or talk?

- It's Charlie. isn't it?

- Yes!

- The guy's crazy about you.

- This has got to be a first.

You care more about your brother

than you do about yourself.

He is my brother.

Yes. I care about him.

I ain't no saint.

There are times

I could kill the guy.

- I heard he's kind of a fuckup.

- Fuckup?

- I'm sorry.

- I'm okay.

- I was out of line.

- No.

- I have to look after my brother.

- I understand about your brother.

I don't understand what's going on

between you and me.

You and me ...

Yeah.

You and your feelings about me.

Well, I decked you, didn't l?

- I feel the same way about you.

- This could get painful.

Hey, love hurts.

Adios.

Charlie, I want to talk to you.

Come here. man.

- I want to give you this.

- You got me a Christmas present.

- What is this? 15 grand?

- I've been saving for a rainy day.

- It's raining, Charlie.

- I can't take this.

Take it. Handle your affairs.

Go ahead and pay Mr. Brown.

- You're always there for me, Hook.

- You'd be there for me.

No. I wouldn't. You wouldn't

get yourself into a mess like this.

- I'll pay you back every dime.

- I know you will.

I love you, man.

- Handle it.

- I'll do it right now.

I'd better put this sh*t away.

Meet me tomorrow night.

I want to talk to you.

You got it.

You never cease to amaze me.

My best New Year's ever.

Or something.

- Are you all right?

- Yes. I'm fine.

Easy does it.

Thank you.

Police!

- Get off of me!

- Settle down.

- Does this look familiar?

- That's my wallet.

I see this all the time.

The best place to keep

your valuables is right here ...

No! Open the door!

Stop the train!

Hi.

Round to.

I know you won't believe this,

but I had Mr. Brown's money.

Some old lady dipped me.

Dip this!

God ...

Charlie, at least let me explain ...

There is nothing to explain.

I knew what was going on.

- You're lying.

- If I'm lying, I'm flying.

I'm happy for you guys.

Why wouldn't I be?

We're brothers, right?

Did you pay Mr. Brown?

Actually, I lost the money,

but what else is new, right?

Damn. Charlie!

Two tokens, please.

What are the chances of the robbers

actually hitting my booth?

The report says it's only one guy

and that he goes for female clerks.

So ... act female.

What? Powder my nose?

Paint my toenails?

Skip said you'd be a little late.

- Are you all right?

- Yeah ... I'm fine.

I was reading that book

you lent me. "The Kabbalian."

It says that the universe

is a mental creation of the All.

- You're drunk.

- No. I'm not drunk.

- Your breath's about 90-proof.

- That's from last night.

I don't want to hear it.

Go home and get some rest.

You've got a lot of nerve

coming in here like this.

- Let me explain about the money.

- What is it this time? Horses?

No. I was on the train

and this old lady dipped me.

- Don't lie to me!

- Have I ever lied to you?

- Maybe about little things.

- A lie is a lie.

- I want you to believe me.

- I don't. Don't say another word.

Are you gonna hit me?

- What the hell was that, Darryl?

- Somebody fell on the track.

Grace, hold your position.

Somebody fell on the tracks.

- Keep your eye on Grace.

- Yeah. I can handle that.

- Who's handling dispatch?

- I don't know.

What happened?

- What the f*** ...
