Wooly bully

Watch it, now, watch it

Matty told Hatty

"Hello, Mr. Fabian!

How are you?"

I'm fair, and yourself?

Had two big horns

Pull 400. That's the

daily max, right?

No, Manhattan lets you pull five.

Take out five, motherf***er!

Five? Jesus Christ, do it yourself.

Be my guest.

Just do it!

Wooly bully

Know what I mean, chief?

Sh*t! F***!

F***in' New York.

Hatty told Matty

Jesus, what is this city coming to?

I can't even deposit a few bucks.

Let's not be L-seven

Come and learn to dance

Wooly bully

Wooly bully

Wooly bully

Wooly bully, wooly bully

Watch it, now, watch it,

Yeah, yeah

Right, right, right

Hey, Harry, how you doin'?

Hey!

Hey!

Hey, baby.

Hey, Fabian,

Fabian, you got a phone call.

Thank you.

I lost my wife because

of you, you Jew bastard!

- You piece of sh*t!

- Let me go!

- Motherf***er! Cocksucker!

- Get your hands off me!

I'm gonna f***in' kill you,

you motherf***er!

How'd you screw up this case today?!

Get him off me, get him off me!

F***ing bastard! F***er...

It's your own fault, a**hole!

You say a f***in' lot, cocksucker!

I'll kill you, man!

What kind of f***in' lawyer...

F*** you.

What kind of f***in' lawyer are you, man?

The only kind you can

afford, you cheap bastard.

All right, you're going with us.

You want me?

You want me?

Let me go.

Let me go.

I want my wife back,

you aimless piece of sh*t!

I'll rip his f***in' lungs out.

Come on, man, let me go, let me go.

- Come on, come on.

- Get in there!

- You want me?

- All you f***ing sleazebag lawyers are the same!

And I'm not Jewish!

What the hell was that?

What an animal. For this

I went to law school!

All of a sudden,

out of the blue... Boy.

Out of the blue, right, Harry?

What, it's my fault, right?

This is my fault we lost the case, right?

I know you think it's my fault

we lost the case, right?

Everything is my fault!

See this?

Hey, you all right, pal?

You shouldn't bolt your drink, Harry.

What are you, my mother?

Not yours.

You want to rock me to sleep,

you want to sing me a little lullaby?

What did you say to my wife?

What did I say to who?

What are you talking

to him like that for?

What?

What?

I'll talk to whoever I want.

Excuse me?

Say that again?

Hey, yo, Phil, Phil, you see this?

Yo, Phil, you see this?

Sanchez whacked some drunk

Irishman or something. Some kid.

What Irish?

You're talking Irish.

- It's in there.

- How do you know it's there?

Grogan O'Grogan from Whitestone.

Gorgon, Ozone Park.

Emmet Gorgon.

- Phil, give me the phone, please.

- For what?

Just let me use the phone! Phil, come on.

What city, please?

Yes, Ozone Park, Queens.

An Emmet Gorgon, please.

Gorgon, Gorgon.

Not Grogan.

Gorgon, like Medusa and the Gorgons.

You know, that's Greek mythology.

555...

Yes, hello.

Emmet Gorgon there, please?

Gorgon? Yes,

Emmet Gorgon, please.

Harry Fabian, attorney at law.

Yes. Emmet, Harry Fabian,

attorney at law.

I'm just calling.

I read the paper.

Let me ask you something.

How's the headaches?

What do you mean, what headaches?

Blurry vision, depression,

insomnia, bruises...

What am I talking about?

You know what you got

hit with last night?

Registered weapons,

my man. Bim-bam, boom-bam.

Now you're a tough kid with

balls, I can tell over the phone,

but the law states that

a professional boxer's hands...

You know what they are?

They are registered weapons,

which you got hit with.

OK, big deal.

So you got shoved.

We're gonna sue his ass. You got a girl?

You gonna get married?

How much you make a year?

Hey, it's OK.

I'm your attorney.

It's legal confidence.

It's like telling your priest.

You make 18,5.

How you gonna get married on 18,5?

Where are you gonna live,

in a migrant labor camp?

How much? Conservatively, 200-300...

100,000. Mental anguish

alone could get you that.

Do you understand?

Mental anguish alone could get you that.

OK, tomorrow you're gonna

see this doctor. He's the best.

This guy can do like open-heart

surgery with mittens on.

You ready?

Pedro Soldano.

S-o-l-d-a-n-o.

No, no, no, no. Don't go

see your regular doctor.

This is a specialist in legal medicine.

He is a Manhattan doctor.

Queens doctors

is a no-no, OK?

Just listen to your lawyer, Harry Fabian.

The attorneyship is called

Fabian, Fabian and Fabian.

Yes, good.

You're very welcome.

You're very welcome.

You're very welcome.

Good.

Jesus.

What a f***ing shyster.

Shyster?

The kid's a victim!

Phil, Phil.

I'm gonna clean up, and then you'll see.

- Here, drink this. Get it over with.

- What's that?

Cleaning fluid.

Get it over with nice and easy.

Sanchez is in Boom Boom

Grossman's stable, you putz,

and you're gonna sue him?

Drink this now.

It'll be a lot quicker.

- Go ahead.

- Boom Boom? Screw him!

You know what? He's the

king of the victimizers.

Is he here? Because

I'll tell him to his face.

- Is that right?

- Yeah.

Is that right?

Go ahead.

He's having dinner.

Go on back and kick

the sh*t out of him, bad ass.

Go ahead!

Go ahead, tough guy!

Guy goes like this,

five people die in Oklahoma...

I told him, see.

There he is.

What's everybody laughing about?

That's what I told him.

I went over there.

I told him, Boom Boom,

I'll kick your ass.

No...

I thought it was you.

What are you doing?

What am I doing?

Let's go to my place.

I can't.

Then let's go to yours.

What, are you crazy?

Well, where are we gonna go?

Right here.

You really got

a hold on me

You really got

a hold on me

You really got

a hold on me

Baby

I love you

and all I want you to do

Is just hold me

Hold me, hold me

Hold me

Harry, I gotta talk to you

about something.

About what?

I'm thinking about

going out to California.

Yeah? With what?

Well, my brother-in-law's

restaurant's going belly up

and I could buy it real cheap.

- With Phil?

- With Phil?

No, I gotta get away from him.

I want my own place.

- Bad idea.

- What?

You're a New Yorker, like me.

You freak out halfway

through the Holland Tunnel.

Bad idea.

I don't know about that.

- Bad idea.

- Yeah?

Bad idea.

You're a New Yorker.

You're a New Yorker.

You're a New Yorker.

You're a New Yorker.

You're a New Yorker.

You're a New Yorker.

Hey, I'm not making the money.

How many dozen you got?

I got... I got 500.

OK, now tell me again.

So, what happened?

He said to me,

"What'd you say?"

So I busted him in his head.

I says, "How's

your hearing now?"

- Yo!

- I'm sorry, Mr. Fabian. I'm sorry.

Let's just talk about this tomorrow, OK?

'Cause we got to think of something

other than the

hard-of-hearing defense.

OK? 9:
00 all right?

Because I got a 2:30

appointment right now.

I'll miss another

day of work 'cause of you!

- Is this suite 201?

- I'm sick of you.

- Emmet Grogan?

- Gorgon.
