Right there.

What, the liquor store?

No, the flower shop.

Valentine's Day, baby.

Aw, sweetie.

Guess what?

What?

I love you.

Why the f*** would you say...

I told you!

It's Valentine's Day.

I told you, that's bad luck.

Why do you always do that?

I'm superstitious!

You know I'm f***ing superstitious.

Sorry.

You look nice.

Really?

Yeah.

Like, what do you mean?

Like handsome.

You look handsome. Really?

Yeah.

Bye.

May I help you?

Uh, how much is a dozen roses?

Twelve for fifteen.

Fifteen dollars a dozen?

Fifteen dollars a dozen.

Can I get a dozen for twelve?

No. You can have twelve

for fifteen,

and I'll put

this pretty card in with it.

Yeah. Give me a card.

What do I write on the card?

Give me all the cash

in the cash register.

Don't move!

Don't move!

Don't move, lady.

Don't move, all right?

I don't want to hurt anyone.

Open the cash register.

Hurry up, come on.

Is this all?

It's Valentine's Day. What kind of

f***ing business are you running here?

Happy Valentine's Day, you f***!

Oh, sh*t.

You got me flowers!

F***ing drive!

Ms. De Toma,

this is your first offense.

Because your brother

is a transit officer,

I'm giving you

the minimum sentence,

but if I ever see you in my courtroom

again... Can I get a tissue?

I promise you I

will not be so lenient.

Your sentence is three months

at the Rose M. Singer...

Don't f***ing touch me.

With one year probation.

Don't... Quiet,

please.

I am quiet!

Mr. Uva... quiet!

I am!

Mr. Uva...

This is your second time here.

Excuse me, Your Honor,

can I approach the bench?

Quiet!

Can I talk to you for a second?

I would like a new lawyer.

Tommy, can we talk for a second?

With no possibility

of probation.

Please...

Baby! Baby!

Get them out of here!

Get them both out of my...

Get the f*** off of her,

you f***ing a**hole!

F*** you!

You f***ing happy now?

Hello, my name is Robert,

and I'm calling from the Lux

Et Veritas Collection Agency.

Mrs. Demarest?

How are you doing?

You feeling better?

Oh, your dog's sick?

Oh, that's too bad.

Yeah, fleas are the worst.

Listen...

are you ready

to make some payments?

Hey!

Lady, I don't give a rat's ass

about your dog, all right?

Either you make your payments,

or I'm going to garnish your wages

and you'll be so broke you'll

have to eat your f***ing dog.

Oh, you found the check?

Oh, miracles happen.

Thank you for your business.

Good morning.

Hey, Rosie, good morning.

I love your style.

Thank you.

And I think you've got a real future here.

Yeah?

Can I just make one comment?

Okay, I know. The F-bomb,

shouldn't have thrown it.

That, too.

Yeah.

But I think...

I'd like you to try to think

of these people as your friend.

Okay.

All right?

"A positive spin

will always win."

Oh, my goodness, look at you.

Um, Mr. Lovell?

Oh, yeah...

Sorry. My boyfriend Tommy,

he's been away.

I know that one.

Yeah...

He's a real hard worker

and he really needs a job.

Because he wants to do the spin.

Positive spin.

Positive spin.

Is he willing

to advance his pants?

I am!

Then I might just give him

a second chance.

Oh, look it!

Who are you?

Mr. Lovell, what are you,

a poet and a dancer, too?

You know,

I know I had some money in here.

I had some money

in here, sir. Is it...

Look, I don't expect

to get my money back,

but could I get

a bus pass please?

Wow!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Yeah, baby!

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Yeah, baby. Yeah, baby.

You miss me, baby?

You know I did.

How much?

A lot.

A lot a lot?

Mm-hmm...

But you were bad though.

With other boys, right?

Yeah, right.

You know it's only you.

Come on, you can tell me.

No.

Don't ever f***ing tell me.

Zero.

I don't want to know.

Always.

Come on.

Listen...

I'm clean.

And, you know,

I want a fresh start.

Yeah, me too.

We got to cool it with that sh*t.

Yeah.

Fresh start.

We got a brand new life.

Yeah.

We're getting old.

No.

Yeah. I mean kind of.

I got a job.

You did? Really?

Mm-hmm.

What are you doing?

I'm working

at a collection agency.

That's very exciting.

Yeah.

Hey, and if you want,

I can talk to my boss.

His name

is Mr. Lovell,

and he's real sweet, you know?

I don't really think

that's for me.

No, baby. No.

Well, why don't you

think about it?

Well, I can think about it.

I mean, I thought about it.

And?

I don't think it's for me.

Ten years ago,

I was in your very shoes.

Fresh off a stint

and looking for a new start.

Wait, you did time?

Seven months at Otisville.

It was actually one

of my better business ideas.

What I'd do was I would send

out these fake invoices

to all the big companies,

and if it was under a thousand bucks,

they wouldn't check them out.

I netted 800 grand until

Uncle Sam caught me.

That's genius.

Thank you.

I feel small-time.

But what I realized after I

paid my debt to society...

You can't vote anymore.

One.

Is that everyone

deserves a second chance.

You know, I always say that.

Yeah. That's why I hire ex-cons,

like Rabies over here.

Hey, meet Tommy.

New guy.

Hey, what's up, man?

Sex offender,

but actually a nice guy.

So you

only hire ex-cons?

Well, I hire people who have

been abandoned by society.

Yeah.

By everyone but me.

Yeah.

There's nothing to be ashamed of.

Yeah, I'm not ashamed.

Oh, say it again.

Say... I'm not ashamed.

Yes, say it again.

I'm not ashamed.

Louder.

I'm not ashamed.

Yes!

I'm so proud of you.

Welcome back.

Oh, my God!

My name is Tommy.

I'm calling from the Lux Et

Veritas Collection Agency.

I'm sitting here,

not so thrilled,

because you owe me $4500.

What do you know about that?

Rich people,

you know what they do.

They pay lobbyists

to write the f***ing laws.

Let's...

Hey, let's cross.

Why?

What, for them?

Tommy, in this neighborhood

you give those guys space.

Arguing that Gotti

was responsible...

for other murders as well...

Bunch of greasy old guys

coasting on their reputations.

Bullshit. They used to f***

with my father every day.

They would humiliate him

because he borrowed money

to start his flower shop.

They were all f***ing rats.

Even before RICO.

Who's RICO?

If you see it, then you will...?

Live it!

You will...?

Buy it!

Be it.

Be it! I was going

to say it.

If you see it, you will be it!

If you see it, you will be it!

Yes! Be it!

Yeah, look at that.

Little miss pretty pants

in the front row.

Are you calling me?

Yes, hello.

How you feeling?

Good.

What you got going on?

I'm ready to believe it.

Believe it!

Achieve it!

Achieve it!

Succeed it.

All right, take Tommy.

Tommy baby, how you're feeling.

Where's Tommy?

Hello?

Yeah, I'll be right there.

Tommy.

Hey, Bobby.

Hey.

How you doing?

Hey, it's good to see you.

Good to see you.

You look good.

Yeah, you too.

You look real good.

Actually, how-how long

you been out?

A little bit now.

Like a month, you know.

I'm just...

I'm getting organized.

So was it

a h-hard time, or...?
