Just us?

You don't have to bring him in.

You don't have to make it pretty.

You don't have to like it. All right?

Just do it.

- What are you gonna be doing?

- I have to wait for Claire.

Now get the job done. Get the money.

Nick's got the money?

You, don't grow a brain.

Okay?

Just go together. Do not split up.

Do not wait to talk to him.

Find him. Shoot him.

Stash the money. Okay?

Don't move a muscle. You know

how I am when I'm nervous.

Have some goddamn respect

until things are decided.

I don't understand.

Really?

Did you really think that I'd believe

that Kitty killed Jimmy?

I don't know what Duncan's been

telling you, but you got it all wrong.

It's me. Claire.

Duncan must have given Koo the...

Feed the tree.

- What you doing? Digging a hole?

- Yeah, kid, we're digging a hole.

You gonna plant something?

Yeah. That's just it, kid,

we're gonna plant something.

- Can I help?

- Sure, kid.

No, better not. She likes digging.

- Okay. Bye.

- All right. See you.

Well, Claire. It was fun.

- But I'm not gonna miss you.

- Likewise.

Don't move.

Turn around.

1,224,400.

Did we get him?

I don't know.

Damn!

1,224,500.

1,224,600.

1,224,700.

1,224,000...

Sh*t.

Benny.

It's Nicholas. Is there anything

I should know about?

The Boss wants you to come in.

Would you like to speak with Boulez

and Simms? They're right here.

- Sure.

- I'm sorry.

They've just become unavailable.

- Hi.

- Hi.

Where are the two men?

I killed them.

Wanna help me bury them?

Okay.

Rest easy, little man.

Peaceful.

You can, you know, because

those bastards are gonna die.

And when they do,

I know you're gonna be there.

Time to go to work.

- Jesus, Nick, you look awful.

- Let me have a glass of water, Mike.

Jesus, Nicholas, water?

Do you need me to take you

to the hospital there?

Jesus, Nick, that must be five grand.

Nobody pours them like you do, Mike.

Jesus, Nick. Trouble.

- Thanks, Mike.

- Sure, Nick.

Sucker.

Very cute.

Grand-f***ing-Central.

Yeah, Stykes. Can I get The Boss?

All right. Well, tell him I called

from Claire's.

Yeah, Kitty's here. She's dead.

Yeah, nothing else going on, though.

Look, I'm gonna call it a day.

Never can tell how

a day's gonna go, huh?

You could just go. You could leave

now and I wouldn't tell anybody.

- I promise.

- Just go?

I could never stand you. Never.

Sitting in that room every day,

looking at you.

Please.

Now it's please? Please what?

Please? You gonna please me?

Sh*t!

I got such a big itch to do something

to you right now.

That's how dumb guys get killed...

...with their pants down around their

ankles. Not me, baby.

You're looking at a smart guy.

Jesus!

- Claire here?

- She went to go see The Boss.

Damn.

Nick?

Nick. Nick.

Nick.

Hey.

You okay?

Once, when I was little,

I had a goldfish that died.

Was it called Nicholas?

No, Goldie.

Amazing.

When you traveled,

what was your favorite place?

Thailand.

However, I always have been

very partial to Montana.

I love the red ones.

There's nothing quite like

the red ones.

What's wrong with you, Nick?

I am tormented by my many sins.

Cancer.

So when I say, "What are you

waiting for?" you identify.

You say, "What am I waiting for?"

Claire.

I'm looking at your grave.

Yeah, well, I'm looking at your mess.

I told you not to go in there without me.

Duncan confused him,

it's not his fault.

No, it is his fault.

It doesn't matter. Wexler's involved.

I can still turn things around.

No, Claire. You've got

to look out for yourself.

I am looking out for myself.

Nick, you all right?

I am not well, Claire.

I want you to rest. I mean it.

- What are you going to do?

- Visit Wexler.

Okay. Claire, there's some things

I have to do.

- But I'll be there if you need me.

- I know.

He never cleans up after himself.

You got kind of dirty.

I'm surprised you're still here.

So how did it go with The Boss?

Claire, he's not gonna fit.

Oh, God. You're not...?

Oh, God.

I need an immediate pickup.

- It's freezing.

- I don't need you around anymore...

...so why don't you just take off?

What was all that crap

about taking me back?

I got bigger problems

than lugging you around.

Look, Claire, I really think

we should stick together.

We're in the same boat. We're in

trouble with The Boss. We could hide...

...get a room at the Royal,

order room service. It'd be fun.

- I know people there.

- Yeah, they'd never look there.

I don't have any place to go.

Kitty can wait here.

- Stay awake. We're not safe.

- No problem.

Claire.

I knew you'd come.

You and I have a rare

business opportunity.

- Benny's with me.

- Jesus.

- Who else?

- Well, Duncan, of course.

It's ironic that your boss and I made

the same mistake trusting Duncan.

It's clear that you would

have been the better choice.

There's a lesson in it.

I figured you would never sell out.

I had no choice but Duncan. But

your boss had you and Duncan...

...and he chose poorly,

betraying years of trust.

- Everyone makes mistakes.

- True, but consider the present.

He wants to kill you.

I want to be your friend.

To control the organization, we need

somebody who knows the connections.

If it were me, we'd have to kill you,

Nick and whoever was left.

If it were you, we could start pulling

things back together right now.

What about the money?

Taking the money was merely a means

to get to The Boss. It's nothing. Keep it.

You stay out of my way. You let me

run my own show, we got a deal.

You and Mr. Lawrence

can work out the hit.

No.

- I make the hit.

- We'll see, won't we?

What'll you have, hon?

Ice cream.

Chocolate, vanilla, strawberry,

praline, mint chip, chocolate chip...

...Swiss orange chip, peanut butter,

boysenberry, fudge brownie...

...and a whole mess of sherbets.

We'll have...

...vanilla.

- Anything else?

- Fresh apple pie.

- We're out.

- Do you bake?

I have been at work for 10 hours.

Then I would like to pay you...

...$ 1000 per hour...

...to bake me a fresh apple pie.

I don't know if my pie is that good.

- Where you from?

- Potato Creek, Indiana.

I trust you.

My wife and I came all the way

from Texas to meet Dr. Wexler.

- Have you taken The Step yet?

- No.

You should all be excited to meet

our new guests, Claire and Kitty.

Claire is coming to work for me.

Aren't you, Claire?

And I can't help but feel Kitty

has a future with me as well.

Claire is about to take The Step.

- That is wonderful. Congratulations.

- Time to go, folks.

The doctor needs some time

with our guests.

- Come on, Henry.

- Good night.

Have a wonderful evening, everybody.

Earl?

Earl, would you like to join

our guests for dinner?

Claire.

- What do you think of our guests?

- Thrill a minute.

Earl, what do you think

of our friend Claire?

- I would give anything to be you.

- You are the sunshine on my flower.

It is so nice to see someone

who knows what they want.

Do you ever worry about things,
