Let's go through the story one more time.
- Yeah
- Okeydoke.
B.M. W. Pulls out in front, right?
Well, see, that's the amazing thing right there...
getting a parking space in Manhattan.
YeahJesse's totally right
Wait a sec
How do you get a parkin' space in front
of a bank two days in a row? In Manhattan?
Yeah, 'cause the only places I ever find
are no-parkin' zones:
Loadin' zones, hospitals
or streets that are "no parking" for, uh...
- Garbage day
- Yeah
- Garbage day
- Yeah
- The whole side of the street is a no-parkin' zone
- Course!
So, they rob the bank early in the morning,
then they put the cash in the garbage can.
We chase the Beemer The garbage truck
picks up the cash,
and they meet up later on
So even if you do catch 'em,
that's why they ain't got the money on 'em
The only thing they need to pull it off
is a garbage man
- We gotta find that garbage man
- Okay
- Bye, Mom
- Hold on. Where you goin'?
Bye, baby
Wait, wait! Yo, whoa!
Yo, what do you want me to do with this?
We can't wait till the morning
The FBI may have already caught them by then
I mean... You know what I mean
Just keep a lookout
Hurry up
Voil!
