Sleepless Page #3

No. No.

I'm in a bit of a hurry.

I just want to get

my stuff and go.

My guy's bringing the stuff to my office.

Just be a few more minutes.

Something wrong?

No. Everything's fine.

I got a great 25-year-old

bottle of Macallan up there

with your name on it.

What do you say?

Now, you know I don't drink.

- But sure.

- Let's go to your office.

Hey.

This is yours.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Stanley,

how much longer?

A few minutes.

A few minutes?

Here's the thing.

You know my family.

And we got our fingers

in a whole lot of pies.

I mean, sh*t,

who doesn't love a hot,

steaming slice of pie?

Delicious.

But my father, he's a...

He's a big thinker.

We got a new pie

getting baked up.

Canada.

What can I say?

He likes snow.

Listen, rob...

No, Stanley, it gets better.

It was supposed to be

a small deal this week...

25 kilos, you know,

just to give them a taste.

Then my idiot cousin decides

to become a DEA informant,

and we lose an entire...

Shipment.

But me, I step up

and I promise my father that

our Canadian pie is safe,

and that I could cover

the shortage

with an extra...

25 kilos.

Your 25 kilos.

I was just trying to help.

No, Stanley.

When you made me the offer,

you were helping me out.

But when I promised my father

that I had it all covered,

then you became obligated.

So,

where is my goddamn cocaine?

Okay.

Can you hold one moment,

please? Thank you.

I'd like to rent

a locker, please?

I'm sorry. Lockers are

reserved for spa guests only.

If you'd like to book a...

I'd like to rent

a locker, please.

Thank you.

First floor.

- Did you check every monitor?

- Yes. I lost him.

Goddamn it.

We got his kid.

He's gonna bring us

our drugs. Stan...

Hey, I thought you said

you'd meet me outside.

I knew he was dirty.

Where is he?

I stayed with the evidence.

Jesus Christ.

First of all, we got a

dead guy who worked here.

Right?

I followed downs here

and see him talking to the

casino manager, Stan Rubino.

Then rob Novak and his guys turn up,

and they're meeting with Rubino.

Clearly, this ties in to our

crime scene this morning.

Why? Because we've got a police-issued

bullet at the crime scene,

and because downs comes here

and shoves a ton of cocaine

into the bathroom ceiling?

Then he killed the guy.

Yes.

Okay, he's our guy.

Where'd you put the drugs?

I put them

in a locker in the spa.

Oh, my god. This is nuts.

This is nuts.

We got to get a judge in on this.

No.

If we hang around waiting for

paperwork, we'll miss it. This is big.

We can bring down the Novaks and have

an internal bust at the same time?

- Jennifer...

- I'm right about this.

- Jen...

- I'm fine.

Okay. What do you want to do?

I want to give downs a poke.

Sh*t.

Hey, d.

Do you have him?

Yeah. Got a text from him.

- Said he was going to meet some shorty

at the Luxus casino. -What girl?

You know, the... with the girl. The

girl, uh... the girl he always with.

The girl...

He doesn't have a girl.

Maybe he don't want you

to know who the girl is.

I know you, vin,

and I know your voice.

You're not telling me

the whole story, are you?

Don't start that right now. When I

get him, I will call you, okay?

I'll call you

when I got him. Sh*t.

Look, vin...

Hey, downs.

You know what they say

at the airport.

Never leave your bag unattended.

Bryant, I need that bag.

- Why don't we meet up and talk about it?

- F*** you!

Okay.

Oh, I gotta get out of here.

Excuse me.

Mr. Rubino has requested

a bottle of cristal

sent to his office, immediately.

- Put it on his personal account.

- Okay.

To his office, okay?

Nice of you to finally join us.

What the hell took you so long?

Who the f*** is this?

This is Vincent downs. He's the

man who's got your product.

And why have we been

sitting around waiting on you?

There's a lot

of cops downstairs.

Cops all over the casino.

We need to get out of here.

Casino's always full of cops.

- They follow you?

- Think so.

And, uh, it's narcotics.

They know we're up here.

How do you know

they're narcotics?

'Cause I'm a cop.

Easy.

There something

you want to tell me?

Never a dull moment.

But I didn't know this.

I don't know what's going on.

Truly.

Yeah. I know, Stanley.

You never do.

Looking for Mr. Rubino.

I think that's them.

We gotta go.

Gotta get you out of here.

Come on.

These stairs lead to the garage.

Vincent downs.

I'll remember that.

You should.

Yeah, get the kid. Bring him

down to the front of the club.

Go on, get your son.

Get the f*** out of my casino.

He's waiting on you.

Damn it.

He must still be here.

Did you check with security? No.

All right, I'm on it.

Stop the f***ing car.

It's sugar.

All right, call everyone. I want

everyone here in ten minutes.

You come with me. You go to the front.

Goddamn it!

Dad.

Hey, son.

You all right?

Yeah.

It's over.

Let's get out of here.

Hey, rob.

What did you think?

'Cause you and my father

partied together when you were

kids that I wouldn't kill you?

What's your problem? I was

just trying to help you out.

You needed some product.

You didn't give me product.

You gave me sugar.

- What?

- Your cop.

He f***ed you!

I... i... I have his kid. He'll

bring the drugs. I'll just...

I'll just...

Just give me some time.

Huh?

Then what are you waiting for?

Yeah?

- Do you still have the kid?

- No. I just let him go.

Well, get him back!

Sh*t.

What's goin' on?

Don't worry about it. What do

you mean don't worry about it?

Sh*t. Why is he

coming back?

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Um, yeah.

Come on.

Let's go this way.

Which way?

F***!

What? What?

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

What?

Oh, sh*t!

It's just a cut. It's just a cut.

I'll be okay.

Just give me a minute.

You stole drugs from them?

What you talking about?

That's why you're never home.

This your overtime?

Thought you out

doing something good,

and you over here

f***ing selling drugs.

It's a case.

Listen,

I'm telling you, t,

I'm undercover.

I've been working this case for

two years, and I'm almost...

I almost got it done. That's

why I haven't been around.

That's why I haven't been able to take

you to your games or whatever that is.

And I apologize for that.

You're the only one

that knows. Okay?

So you got to stay close,

and we gonna get out of this.

You just gotta trust me.

Yeah.

Come on. Come on,

come on, come on!

Come on, dad! Come on!

Get up!

Watch out!

Come on, dad!

Dad! Dad!

Oh, sh*t!

Dad. Come on, dad.

This way.

Yes, sir. I understand.

I appreciate that.

Yes, sir.

Any sign of him?

I spoke with my father.

If we don't have the coke

in the next four hours,

he's cutting his vacation

short and coming home.

I want you to tell

every cop on our payroll

that I will pay to see Vincent downs

and his partner on their knees.

Move!

Get the f*** outta the way!

Come here!

- Thomas!

- Dad! Dad!

I swear to god, you little sh*t!

If you make a scene,

I'll f***ing kill you!

Thomas! Move.
