-- Run your business with the state lottery?

No, my main client is Global Lendl.

What is this about?

Gator has his weapon needed, a**hole.

Because it is a real cop.

I never told her to shut up.

A man who does

what should be done.

A man who knows how his dark side

should use to do good.

And then you move to Florida.

One, two, three, attacks.

I, Allen.

-- Tag.

Tick you off? You hit me in the face.

-- I tap off.

Are you crazy?

What are you doing? I had to kill you.

-- Switch off the lights.

What?

-- They can keep an eye on us.

Who?

-- I found some great information.

What?

-- Something seriously. Terry, this is great.

How did you get in here?

We can not be too careful.

-- What are you talking about?

This house can be intercepted.

-- No bugging devices here.

At first, I missed you.

-- What's going on?

Did you hear what I said?

-- I've missed you too well.

Thank you. I've found whose loss

Ershon that had obscure.

It's Global Lendl.

Lendl, the robbery at Castian ...

put in the scene to break

next door to the auditor.

They have taken all the documents with ...

all bad investments Ershon

to conceal.

You must not normally do.

-- I know.

Pretty link.

-- This is not good, Allen.

Hence, the commander

Wish we were out here.

I bet Beaman began to ask

and therefore make him murdered.

Tomorrow is a big business deal is closed.

Ershon leads.

I can not find out with the loser

They conclude this deal but we have to stop.

It's time to let the peacock fly.

-- I do not count. Me really like what I do.

Me too, we're agents.

-- No, I like what I do.

In road work is fun.

-- What?

I like to work in traffic,

I will not go with you.

Traffic? Nonsense.

What are you talking about?

-- I'm talking about my life.

The intersection of 54th Avenue.

It hums, it is Terry's crossroads.

And the boys of traffic

are good guys.

There's a guy, Phillip, who from

six meters away in the pot to piss.

You should see it, Allen.

-- This would be our time.

I am done.

I quit.

Go into the car.

-- Come on, we both know that it is of wood.

Attack in the apartment, the car now.

-- You will not shoot me.

I only shot twice.

-- Aim it not to me.

Tomorrow morning I go to Mauch.

-- That makes him nothing.

He circumvents this issue too long.

I want him to look at me and says why.

It is no longer news, it excites no one.

-- I hope I'm not alone.

Hopefully you bring it along.

We must be ourselves. There is a full moon,

People will be touchy.

Let's see if we have hot tips.

The new bath mats are.

Another thing. We have a serial rapist

in Crown Hights.

This is my other job.

Ignore it, forget it.

Ignore it if you do not live in Crown Hights.

You know, walking in Paris.

Gene Mauch asked.

I gotta go grab them

and be careful out there.

I would like to keep it together oaks,

and maple apart.

And that chalk boards ...

-- Commander.

How are you?

What are you doing here?

Are you here for the bath mats?

-- I want your honest with me.

Or, be honest with us.

-- Terry. Watch this now.

You could work in traffic today.

-- Let him do the blocks in the box.

Besides, the partner code, right?

-- Thanks.

Why are you working to rot

this case to kill?

You are located in deep water it.

Really deep. Ershon connected

with all higher operations.

And I should save what I can.

If you hide in rubbish in the world,

the world will eventually come when you knock.

Very nice.

-- From an episode of Touch by an Angel.

Keep it quiet and get real evidence,

I'll see what I can do ...

but if too much noise and

you draw the attention of the media ...

then the prosecutor there

and stop it, okay?

We're just church mice. There is a case in your

life where you getting off and that's it.

Make us proud.

Because I do not want fellows.

Really?

-- No.

This is a song by TLC.

-- What are you talking about?

Chasing Waterfalls, I do not want no scrubs.

-- I do not know to whom you refer.

It's like a tap.

-- Remember ...

if this is a mess,

We never talked.

You can trust us.

-- Very quiet, you have to sneak.

You say you do not crawl

TLC not to quote you.

You know that Danson and Highsmith

agents were not good, right?

That we knew. But who will

differently to a hero?

Do not cut

but maybe you do.

Are you ready?

-- Yes.

Highligts you are great.

-- Thank you.

Sexy but serious.

-- Thank you.

Who are these people?

I expected only one man.

People I owe money.

-- So here I am.

Who are they?

-- Freedom Fighters, entrepreneurs.

These dark men are businessmen

from Nigeria.

You owe money to Nigerians?

Yes, indeed.

-- You owe me one of them.

Thank you.

We better start.

This is good, we're in the game

and we know the score.

It annoys me that we do not know

Who Ershon his target.

Is the lottery? Who is it?

-- Who cares.

A rich stinker.

I'm very excited

about this deal.

I can assure you that every penny

carefully invested.

It is also exciting for us.

Our members will be overjoyed.

It looks like 18 percent in

the past decade.

Quiet as a church mouse.

Inwards and outwards.

I can feel tingling in my balls

feel that you were talking about, great.

I am an agent and this agent Gamble Hoitz

We need your cooperation.

David Ershon, you will be arrested

for fraud ...

deception and the connection

with the murder of Beaman Thurs.

This is a bad idea.

Bob, what are you doing here?

-- I'm investing.

That proxy vote from a while ago?

That was before.

This is an aggressive

Method invest for retirement.

All, we are the suckers. They have

the police pension fund as a target.

NYPD PENSIOENSFONDS

Gentlemen, you are here illegally and without a warrant.

We have a right to take action.

So far silent church mice.

-- Go.

Who are these men?

I can deliver to your map

'Rock of Ages. "

Even I admit, not seductive,

but I'm not made of cards.

Shoot him.

-- Jamie Come here, you get the car.

I've had this joker

and his wooden weapon.

They will murder me and then you.

-- I kill you first.

And they will murder me.

-- There are two agents on the flight.

And hold hostage David Ershon.

-- We are the good guys.

Exactly, they are the good guys.

-- Where are we going?

I have a small apartment

where nobody knows.

I use that for my parents and prostitutes.

At the same time, it would be wrong.

Let's hear from

the beginning of every detail.

It is best to start at the end.

Briefly and then go back to the beginning.

Then periodically returned to the end times that

gives more different characters perspective.

Otherwise it is a linear story.

-- Tell us what happened.

I have lost money from people,

who want it back.

Beaman and Don?

Knew I agree with finances

the highlight was ...

and so they sent Wesley

him to keep quiet.

They forced him at gunpoint a lot of gin

and drink on the ledge to stand.

It was just a matter

of time before he fell.

We can at least stop for you

The fund has.

Right, it's my account.
