Prizzi's Honor Page #8

I can't kill her.

Now, Charley...

you swore an oath of blood,

my blood and yours.

That you would always put

the family before...

anything else in your life.

I'm simply calling on you now...

to keep that sacred oath.

Irene is my family Padrino.

She's my wife.

She's a woman you've known

for only a few weeks.

She is your wife.

We are your life.

You're failing your oath...

when you covered up for her

in the Vegas scam.

A great sin

against your honour.

But this for this you must stone.

I need her.

Look at you's.

Pop, you've been alone

since Mamma died.

Padrino you've been alone

all my life.

Is that what you want for me,

to grow old like you?

With nothing but bodyguards and

money to keep me company?

Charley,

my beloved man.

You will be even more alone.

If you turn you back on us,

we are your blood.

Jees, I feel like I'm drowning

or something.

We covered up the Vegas scam

to protect her.

That's what I thought

we did for our women.

How can that be a sin

against honour?

She is a hitter and a thief.

You must give her to us.

What is your answer?

The family.

It's the only place I can be,

I know that.

It's business Charley, only business.

Irene?

Charley.

Hello.

Everything is ok.

The Don's gonna give you

your money back.

All 900 dollars, I got it right here.

The Don's giving money back?

Since when?

Yeah you could have knocked me

over.

That ain't all.

He's gonna pay you every dime

for Filargi's stand...

and what Dominic set.

How about that?

Oh, Charley!

Well...

I'm glad

everything is settled.

I just...

wanted you to know that

everything is a hundred percent ok.

Oh Marxie,

I should have listened.

After you take this stone out

of my shoe...

you call your father...

and tell him where he can get her.

And then the wind will stop blowing.

Charley...

you got 900,000 here.

What's the first flight out of L.A. To

Hong Kong in the morning?

Flight 009 at 10.45 am.

But we can get you to Hong Kong

tonight out of LA.

Oh no thank you I have to go

to the bank in the morning.

Reserve 009 then one seat, first class.

The name is Hilary Jackson.

Mrs. Hilary Jackson.

Irene?

Irene?

Irene?

Irene?

Look who's here.

Charley!

What a wonderful surprise!

Baby I got three whole days.

We can do anything you want.

You name it.

Baby we are gonna have a ball.

Jesus, what a beautiful song.

Why don't you go

and warm up the bed?

I'll be right there.

Yeah!

Mae?

Charley.

Charley, you know what?

My sister Theresa just got back

today from her honeymoon.

Where did they go?

Outer space?

What do you say...

we go to dinner tonight?

Dinner?

What do you mean?

What do I mean?

I mean let's go some place

and get something to eat.

You, me and Irene?

No.

Just you and me.

What about Irene?

She had to go away.

She won't be back.

How about it?

How about?

Holy cow, Charley.

Just tell me where you want to meet.
