- What do you care?

You know me

better than that.

I knew a lot of things

till you set me up.

- H e made me do that.

- Did he put that look in your eye

when they dragged me

out of our bed?

I was high and I was scared.

And I needed help

and Vincent was there.

Nobody could get you

to marry him-

not if you

didn't want to.

There are so many things

you don't understand.

All I know is

my brother's dead.

- I'm sorry about Jimmy.

- Y eah?

You can't feel too sorry-

even though you got clean,

that outfit,

those earrings, this car

were paid for by that sh*t

Jimmy shot into his arm.

And it all comes

from Vincent.

So tell me,

when you're with him

and you're alone in his bed,

and you're playing

the submissive little housewife,

do you still feel sorry or are

the perks too f***ing good?

I hate you.

I hate you.

T ell your husband I got

a few things to take care of,

and then I'll be gone.

He came to the stopover

on 14th Street,

just rolled over and nodded out

right on the passenger seat.

The truck was right in

the middle of the intersection.

The doors were locked,

"Freebird" playing on the radio,

engine running.

Some psycho took out a bat

and started smashing it

on the side of the truck.

Cops had to smash in the windows,

they pulled him out.

They gave him a DWI

right on the spot.

Jimmy said, "They had to get

a tow truck for my tow truck. "

Jimmy could never

keep a job.

Yeah. After that,

nobody'd hire him.

Marsha left him and...

Jimmy had nothing.

Hi.

Come here.

Come here.

Come here.

He kinda

looks like Jimmy.

Yeah, Jimmy and I

took after our mother.

Ryan and I are

just hanging out.

Well, I-I'll go

into the bedroom and-

Why don't I leave you two

alone for a while?

Why? Come on, it's early.

It's all right.

I'll see ya later.

All right.

H ere, use my keys.

Thanks.

Do you think

I scared him off?

No. It's okay.

It's all right.

We okay?

No.

Go ahead.

I love you, baby.

I love you.

I love you too.

H ey, Champ.

Your eggs look like

someone murdered 'em.

They're bleeding

all over the place.

They got shot like what happened

to that man where you work.

Boom-boom-boom, you're dead,

I got you, you're dead.

Who could've told you that nice

little story, huh? I wonder.

It's 8:
00 a. m.

and he's just getting in.

(speaks Spanish)

Carla:
Enough.

I'll fix you

something to eat.

You see how nice

Mommy talks to Daddy?

Maybe if T eressa is nice,

she might become

a mommy too one day.

So how'd it go?

Couldn't be too concerned,

if you stayed out all night.

Why? Should I be

concerned?

- No.

- No, what?

No, Vincent, you shouldn't

be concerned.

T eressa, take Tyler

out to the park.

Daddy wants to talk with

Mommy for a minute, okay?

Give me five.

All right!

(alternative rock music playing)

~ The first time

is always the best ~

~ Y eah... ~

~ Sit back, relax

and don't resist ~

~ Resist, resist ~

~ Now you're

on the other side ~

~ Resist, resist... ~

So how'd it go?

I conveyed your message,

he's leaving and that's it.

That was all?

We spoke, and now he's leaving.

What else can there be?

- I don't know, you tell me.

- Vincent, there's nothing there.

Then tell me.

Say it.

What else?

You know what else.

T ell me.

T ell me.

Come on, pussycat,

tell me.

- That you're my man?

- Mm-hmm.

Who takes care of me,

and I take care of him?

- And I'm his.

- Yeah.

Huh? Isn't that what

you wanna hear, baby?

Hmm?

You mean

everything to me.

You know that,

don't you?

If I even thought

for a second-

- Hi, Father.

- Ryan. How are you?

It's been hard.

I just- I wanted

to thank you for

calling me about Jimmy

and the words you said

at the funeral.

He always loved

this place.

What is it, Ryan?

Father, it's Eddie.

I'm worried about him.

I just don't know enough

about what's going on.

Sometimes I can help.

- Come inside.

- No, I can't.

Come inside

the confessional.

I can help.

(heavy breathing)

Yes...

Ryan!

I knew you were

gonna be here.

Hey.

Jimmy and me used to come up

here, you could never find us.

Bullshit, I knew

where you were.

I just didn't wanna

spoil it by finding you.

- You can see Manhattan from here.

- Yeah, there's more past that.

Not for me. Not anymore.

- What about Jersey?

- Oh, Jersey! Ew!

Come on, pack your bags,

get your sh*t, we'll just go.

- Hey, come on, stop that!

- Hey, Ryan's rules are back!

I'm your big brother.

I'm supposed to watch out for you.

You were supposed to look out

for me and Jimmy.

- That was your job.

- It's not too late.

- Jimmy might think so.

- (beeper sounding)

- Gotta go.

- Is that Vincent?

H ey, you see this?

Some people make it outta here

and some people don't.

You did it the hard way

but you made it out.

I didn't. I'm still here.

This is my world. And I like it.

He's calling me,

I gotta get back to it.

Do you, Eddie,

I mean, do you really?

Yeah.

Eddie, come on,

I'm still your big brother.

Yeah... you're still

my big brother.

Hey.

I'd invite you in,

but you know how she is.

Um, this is some

of Jimmy's stuff.

There wasn't much left.

He just about sold everything.

You sure you don't

want any of this?

I'm sorry, but I gotta

walk away from this.

I feel like I've been

hit by a freight train.

It's been hard on me.

It's been really hard.

Oh, uh... these are...

Jimmy's letters

that you returned unopened.

It hurt him that

you wouldn't read them,

but he wrote you

all the time.

He just stopped

mailing them. I guess-

he didn't want you to know

he was in trouble.

Didn't want to bother you

with that stuff.

H e wrote up until the end

and towards the end

he was just- well, you wouldn't

have recognized him.

Woman:
Marsha.

I gotta go, Ryan.

I gotta go.

You know, when we were

all growing up,

you three brothers

were really something.

You were really

something.

What happened, Ryan?

What happened

to all of us?

Mitch, what exactly

did he say to you?

He said he'd be here.

Where is the little prick?

Three times I paged him,

nothing.

That whole f***ing family was always

just one big piece of sh*t.

We'll find him.

I want him out

on the street now.

And no more f***-ups.

Doreen:

Eddie! Get up!

Eddie!

Get up!

What happened! What did he have?

What'd you give him?

What did he take?

What did he take?

Eddie, come on,

breathe, Eddie. Breathe.

Doreen, call an ambulance.

Doreen, call an ambulance.

Eddie, come on.

Eddie, come on.

Roll over, cough it up,

cough it up.

Come on, come on,

breathe, Eddie.

Breathe, Eddie.

Come on, don't fall asleep.

Don't fall asleep,

Don't fall asleep!

Eddie, don't fall asleep!

come on, come on!

Doreen, call an ambulance!

Call an ambulance!

Eddie... no more, okay?

No more.

Hey...

finally a companion

for life.

Who else will marry you

looking like that?

Whoever she is,

she'll be a satisfied woman,

that's all I can say.

By the mere fact that

a woman knows I'll be

her brother-in-law,
