- You remember me?

Sure you do.

That's my scent you're wearing.

- Do you want the money?

- No, I don't want the money.

Freeze!

Come on!

Police! Move!

Police! Move!

Out of the way!

Move. Police. Out of the way.

No. Charlie!

Move! Get out of the way.

Move! Police!

You see what happens

when you play with fire?

You get burned.

Perfect.

You created quite a sh*t storm.

You could've blown people away

with your reckless sh*t.

Now, if you want to look

like a hero, I think I can help.

Don't worry, kid,

we'll get you out of this one.

All you've got to do ...

... is ask for my help.

It's your badge. It's your life.

It's your call.

What do you say?

No.

From there.

Why aren't you laughing?

Don't you think I'm funny any more?

- Now, say it.

- You want to hear the words?

I want to hear the words.

- Kiss my f***ing ass.

- You kiss it. You're fired!

Get up, Charlie.

We can work this out.

- Not with this piece of sh*t.

- Your brother ain't a cop no more.

- Let me talk to him.

- What do you want to help him for?

Everybody knows

your brother is a fuckup.

- A what?

- A fuckup.

I don't have to take this sh*t.

I'll bust your ass!

Go ahead. take a bite of me.

You'll never get rid of the taste.

- You son of a b*tch!

- That's it! You're busted!

I don't have to take this sh*t!

When your friend calms down,

tell him his badge belongs to me.

I'll send a uniformed officer around

to pick up my hardware.

You don't have to send nobody.

You can come and get it yourself.

This is between you and me,

not you and him.

Who does he think he is? F*** him!

He's gonna regret this day.

No, f*** you, Charlie.

- F*** me?

- Yeah, f*** you.

I didn't ask you to step in ...

but it'll work out, don't worry.

No, it's not gonna work out.

Not this time.

- Come back. bro.

- We're not brothers.

We have nothing in common.

I've always been carrying you

on my back.

Am I gonna give up my career

for you? No! Get out of my life!

Frank, do you happen to know

why blind people don't skydive?

No, why?

It scares their dogs.

It scares their ...

You're a tough crowd, Frank.

Another Jagermeister.

You've had enough, Charlie.

You're cut off.

What's your problem?

You're interfering with me

at the embryo stage of a bender.

Other than that

I've got nothing to worry about.

I've got no job, no brother,

no girlfriend, no future ...

I've got nothing to lose. For the

first time in my life ... I'm free.

- "God bless us all, Tiny Tim."

- You're over the top, Charlie.

Don't do anything stupid.

Where's the fun in that?

I just remembered,

I have to urinate.

I'll pick this up later.

I don't have the money.

Go ahead and kill me.

Right now it'd be a relief.

I hate to hear

that kind of fatalism, I really do.

We can't keep on doing this because

it doesn't have any effect on you.

What I do in a case like yours,

and I'm being forced here ...

... is threaten someone you love.

A wife. A child.

- A brother ...

- Son of a b*tch.

Merry Christmas, Charlie.

January 1st ...

or your n*gger brother's dead.

- What are you doing here, Frank?

- I want to talk about Charlie.

He's in a lot of trouble.

Gentlemen, keep the fires hot!

- Where are you going?

- To talk to Mr. Brown.

Get out of here.

You missed.

I hate that.

- You've got a disgruntled employee.

- Kick his f***ing ...

You can't come in here like that.

Stop f***ing around.

Bring him over here. I'll kill him.

You got big balls? I'll cut 'em off.

What the hell are you doing?

You bunch of pussies!

- We're not getting along.

- You want some of me?

What are you, stupid?

You'll get your money.

But if anything happens

to my brother ... You understand me?

Oh yeah ...

Who are you calling a n*gger?

- Happy New Year.

- Hi. John.

- Happy New Year.

- Johnny!

Charlie came by earlier

and left it for you.

- It took you long enough.

- I'm sorry I'm late.

What is this dress you've got on?

Turn around.

- This old rag?

- Just one you had in the closet?

- You got a permit for this dress?

- You're happy.

I did one last favour for Charlie.

so I'm feeling like a free man.

"The Islands Call."

- Charlie sent it over.

- Open it.

- Damn it. He's gonna do it.

- Do what?

Rob the money train.

- Say again?

- He's gonna rob the money train.

- He wants me in with him.

- Patterson will kill him.

- Aren't you gonna do anything?

- Why should l?

Charlie is going down ... and you

are the only family that he's got.

Open up.

Jesus Christ!

Shoot!

- The money train has been stolen!

- I've got to call Patterson.

Out of the way!

Move!

Attention, everyone!

The situation here

will be resolved immediately.

These perpetrators are fools

and their luck just ran out.

Let's get them. Remember:

The money train has not been stolen.

It is still in our tunnel.

and soon it will be in our hands.

Sh*t!

You scared the sh*t out of me. man.

- How did you find me?

- You told me the plan, remember?

- Only Plan A. Now we're on B.

- What?

- We'll figure it out.

- This is Plan B:

- We leave without the money.

- I ain't down with that.

- Then we've got a serious problem.

- Yeah, I guess we do.

If you turn me in, you get a medal.

- Get us the hell out of here.

- I thought you'd never ask.

When this is over.

I'll knock you out.

The money train is reported

going south on the A-line.

This is Donald Patterson.

Shut down the train and surrender.

Don't do that.

Donald, the robbery's going great

and you'll still get your cut.

You sons of b*tches.

I don't know who you are, -

- but when I get my hands on you

I'll rip your hearts out.

I don't appreciate

that tone of voice.

Don't even look at me.

When Patterson trips the brakes,

our joyride is gonna be over.

We have to bleed the brakes.

- Great, then they can't stop us.

- Then we can't stop, either.

It's bleed the brakes or end up

the butt brothers in D-block.

Bleed the brakes.

- Get me 42nd Street.

- Stand by for Chief Patterson.

The money train is coming your way.

Shut her down.

Trip her brakes.

Reach in and tear her guts out.

Come on, baby. It's got to work.

Yes!

It didn't stop, sir.

I don't think it has any brakes.

I want the shooters

on the Grand Street platform.

- Aim at the motorman's cabin.

- Use a construction barricade.

Good point.

I want a barricade in place now!

That thing's reinforced steel.

They'll be killed.

Money train, this is Patterson.

I have an information update.

At the Grand Street Station we have

a reinforced steel barricade.

Shut it down

and turn yourself in ...

... or die!

He's bluffing, right?

You. over there.

You to. come with me.

What are we gonna do?

We can't stop this thing.

Go faster. Faster!

Come on!

Charlie ... he wasn't bluffing!

Ready. Easy, now.

Wait for my command.

Fire!

You're not gonna believe this.

The train broke the barricade.

- I'll have to start clearing track.

- Wait a minute.

- What's the nearest train?

- The 12:
20. I'll sidetrack her.
