The Man Page #6
- You have no idea.
- Andy, this is Mark.
- How you doing?
- Nice to meet you.
- Vann.
- Mark.
Well, we better go.
- Come on, Katie.
- Come on. Come on, baby.
- Bye, Daddy.
- Bye, honey.
- Can I say something?
- No.
I think you're still
in love with her.
And if you don't get
over this,
you may lose the other
woman in your life.
Just a thought.
- You were so pretty.
- Well, Barney Bunny
should be in the bottom
dresser drawer, honey,
because that's
his very own bed. Oh.
Oh, good, sweetheart,
don't you feel better?
Okay, honey,
is Mommy there?
Hi, Susan. Oh, no no,
things are fine, yeah.
Yeah, convention's
going great great great.
You know, I'm...
I'm the Man.
Yes, I'm going to be home
tomorrow night,
so I'll, uh...
I'll see you then.
I love you too, hon.
Bye.
Thanks.
Why don't we go ahead
and do this thing
- so you can get back to your family?
- Really?
Just do this one thing,
and you're done.
Okay. Question:
When you say "done,"
do you mean "done" as in finished,
as in no more,
nothing else, "done"?
Make the call.
I've a question.
Um, isn't it normal
to have, uh... you know,
some... some kind of backup, uh,
for a situation
like this?
- I didn't hear you call for any backup.
- That's right.
- Oh.
- Here we go.
My hands are sweaty.
Just be the Man.
Who's this?
Well, I came to meet
your associate.
- This is my associate.
- Well, you know what?
- He looks like a cop.
- He does.
He does look like a cop,
but he is most definitely not a cop,
so let's put that to bed
right here and now.
- So like I said, Turk, who is he?
- Who is he?
He's, uh... my b*tch.
Your b*tch?
He's my own personal b*tch.
Hey, b*tch, come here.
Come on, come on,
come on, come on.
I pull the strings,
and he dances.
Is that right?
You his b*tch?
Why don't you
answer the man?
You can talk, b*tch.
I want to hear
you say it.
Who's my b*tch?
- I am.
- I didn't hear that. Did you hear that?
- No.
- I couldn't hear anything.
We can't hear.
Who's my b*tch?
- I'm his b*tch.
- Attaboy.
All right,
well, get in... b*tch.
Why don't you get
in the back, b*tch?
- Crotch-grabbing time?
- Yeah yeah, we'll take care of it.
- Get in.
- All right.
- So where's your guy?
- He's here.
- Where?
- You're looking at him, a**hole.
I am Kane.
Eh, you can still call me Joey,
I answer to both.
The real question is... who are you?
I'm the man with the money.
Better yet,
I'm the only man with the money.
There's just one small
problem, money man.
- What's that?
- I think you're a cop.
Oh. Yeah, I am.
- Huh.
- My name is Vann. Wade was my partner.
I've been tracking what he was doing
from the very beginning.
Could have busted him,
you, your whole gang,
but I was waiting
for the right time.
I want in.
It's true.
He's A.T.F.
- So you knew about the heist, huh?
- Hell, yeah.
Think I don't know
what my partner's doing?
How do I know you're not here to settle
the score for your dead partner?
Please. He played
in the rain; he got wet.
So you just wait for your moment
and this is it?
I can take the heat off you
from the inside and I can move the guns.
You know I got the money,
'cause my man here
just gave you that half million dollars
like it wasn't nothing.
You're not the only one
with connections, Agent Vann.
- I have a buyer.
- You had a buyer.
Manny Cortez. Unfortunately,
somebody put a.45 slug in him.
The same kinda bullet they
took out of my partner, Wade.
Now, some people might
call that a coincidence,
but I don't believe
in coincidences. Do you?
Not really.
See, I figured you'd
take my deal over Manny's
because you're greedy.
But now I see you're
just plain desperate.
You're stuck with a truckload
of guns and no buyer.
So what's it
gonna be, Joey... Kane?
You've got it all figured out,
haven't you, Agent Vann?
We'll see.
Let's go.
Enjoy your swim, ladies.
Tell me you didn't
pee in the pool.
Wait a minute,
wait a minute.
We gonna make
a deal with this cop?
Get in. Vin.
Go. Now.
- Well, I guess this is it.
- Yeah.
You can go back to the world
of dental supply.
Oh, ho-ho yeah.
Yeah.
Listen, if you want to show up tomorrow,
you know, I can make it happen.
No, I'm still in the middle
of this thing.
Oh, yeah yeah
yeah, well, sure.
Ah, just a thought.
It's been interesting.
Yeah, well...
Hey, maybe next time
I'm in town, I'll look you up.
Or not.
It doesn't, uh...
D... boy.
I hate
these long goodbyes.
So, uh...
Well... see you later.
- Yeah, you take it easy.
- Okay.
We in the exciting field
of dental supply sales
have been on the cutting edge
of technology and science
for many years.
And especially today,
be it porcelain veneers,
be it dental implants
that are fast eliminating
the use of dentures
and bridges
in patients' mouths,
be it the use
of carbamide peroxide
in combination
with ultraviolet light
that has cut
teeth bleaching down
to a one-hour-
one-time visit.
Yes, we pledge
another year of excellence
in the field.
And finally, we are here...
"To provide quality,
precision tools
to professionals
who demand the very best!"
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thank you.
Oh, you killed them!
- You killed, Andy.
- You think? Yes!
- Oh! Yes?
- Mr. Fiddler.
Come with us.
- Watch your head.
He said I was done.
Uh, what is going on?
We're hoping you might
tell us, Mr. Fiddler.
Look, I don't know
who you people think I am.
We know exactly who you are.
What we don't know
is how a guy like you
could go so wrong so fast.
Here you are meeting
a gun runner from overseas
name of Joey Trent.
And here you are
doing the 411
with Hector Babcock,
a.k.a. Booty,
a gun dealer who we just
found in the trunk of his own car.
You've been running
with a rough crowd,
but you might be confused
about who the real bad guy is...
Agent Derrick Vann,
your new best friend.
He's the one that put the bullet
through Booty's head.
Oh, no.
- He wouldn't do that.
- No?
- No.
- Check out Manuel Cortez.
Another gun dealer
Vann paid a visit to.
Last but not least,
his own partner,
or ex-partner
I should say.
So you have
a dead A.T.F. Agent,
a dead snitch
and a dead gun runner.
The only connection?
Agent Vann.
Yeah, well, l-l...
I don't believe that.
Why not? 'Cause he's
such a nice guy?
Why do you think
he never called for backup?
He didn't
want cops around.
I don't know anything.
L... l...
- That's bullshit!
- I don't know anything!
That's bullshit!
You're up to your neck in it, pal.
- What do you want from me?
- You're gonna wear a wire
and get Vann to admit
he was in on the heist
and he killed his partner.
- Oh, is that all?
- You don't have a choice.
Really? What if I just
say "No, thank you"?
Then the U.S.
Department of Justice
will take
a giant sh*t on you.
H... how very pleasant.
Believe me, Mr. Fiddler,
your best option
is to go along with this
