What Doesn't Kill You Page #3

when you're done? You guys hungry?

- Yeah, I guess.

- All right.

- This is nice.

- Yeah.

You look good.

Hey, Brian. How are you doing?

- I'm okay.

- Yeah? Can I get you something to drink?

Yeah. Stacy?

- I'm all set.

- Okay. The usual?

No. Yeah, give me...

No, I'm gonna have... Give me just

whatever you got on tap. Thanks.

Okay.

Friend of yours?

What do you mean

"friend"? She works here.

What?

Are you mad now because

the waitress knows my name?

Then why are you getting

all quiet all of a sudden?

How come you

didn't introduce me?

What are you talking

about? She's the waitress.

I thought she just might be more

than that, the way you eyed her.

See? That's why

we never go out.

We never go out because you're

always too busy running around.

You want to start

this all over again?

Let's not ruin a

nice night, okay?

I would've introduced you,

but I don't even know her name.

Here you go, honey.

- I'm sorry, what's your name?

- Kim.

- Kim.

- Yeah.

- Kim, this is my wife Stacy.

- Hi.

- Hey, nice to meet you.

- Hi.

- You need a few minutes?

- Just one.

Okay, I'll be back. Thanks.

- We okay now?

- Yeah.

Excuse me, can I get a

couple of menus, please?

Sorry.

Take your time.

Here.

- No, no, she meant it for you, I think.

- Take it, please.

Charlie, can we have

a couple of minutes?

- Sure.

- Thanks, man.

Hey, Brian.

- Hey, Jay. How'd you make out?

- Paulie.

- Not bad. $900 a pound.

- $900 a pound.

That's 45 grand.

So, what, 12.5 for you?

- That sound good to you?

- Yeah, that sounds good.

- That's good, yeah.

- All right, let's do it.

Listen, I gotta get going, but

I'm gonna see that guy Friday.

- All right. Okay.

- Okay?

I gotta run, too.

Well, don't forget we got

that guy at 1:
00, 1:30.

- Forty-five grand, that's not

bad. - That's good. Good job.

Hey, Jay.

You got a little bit of that

sh*t on you until Friday?

Yeah, yeah.

- Thanks.

- See you Friday.

It's a good business, Paulie.

Jewelry is always in demand.

Yeah, yeah, all right, but

just so we're on the same page,

I give you 10 grand now,

then you give me 200 a week for

a year, plus my 10 grand back.

- Yeah, definitely.

- Okay, that'll work.

I'll be back in a minute.

All right.

- Who is it?

- Brian.

- Hey, Jay.

- What's up, Brian?

I was wondering if you

have any of that money yet.

I told you I wasn't gonna have it

till Friday. Hey, come in, come in.

Thanks. You having a party?

- Yeah, you want a drink?

- Sure.

Hey, Brian, what's

up? I'm Matt.

Hey. How you doing? Yeah,

I've seen you around.

- Here.

- Yeah, I'll take that.

What do you got?

- How much, Brian?

- A "G."

I don't have a

"G." I don't have...

Jay, come on. What do you got?

I don't... I could

give you like 500.

I'll take that. You

got some coke, too?

Yeah, give me a second.

F*** them, Jay. F*** them!

- These your girlfriends?

- No, they're strippers.

- Oh, yeah? You're a dancer?

- Yeah.

Show me some of your moves.

Nice. Let's see the backside.

Nice.

Tim, how you doing?

Yeah, set me up.

I'll set you up.

- What's that you're smoking? Crack?

- Yeah.

You guys are freebasers, huh?

It's like a morgue in here.

I want to be dead like you.

Here's the five, Brian.

Plenty of coke, all right?

Come on, no more coke for you.

That's not bad.

- You gotta suck it in real hard.

- Okay.

When it fills up with

smoke, take your finger off.

All right, I

think I got it now.

Where is he?

Everything all right?

- What do you mean? He's not here?

- No, he never came home.

- Weren't you with him last night?

- Yeah, yeah, I was with him earlier.

- This is it. I've had it.

- What?

Every night he's out until

3:
00, 4:00 in the morning.

- Take it easy.

- You take it easy!

- Stace. Stace.

- 15 years of this sh*t.

I know.

12:
00 in the afternoon?

You're the biggest a**hole...

I just spent the night locked

up! Leave me the f*** alone!

Hello?

He just got in.

It's Paul.

- Yeah, tell him I'll call him back.

- He's gonna call you back.

I don't know, some bullshit

about being arrested. I gotta go.

So what happened?

Nothing. I was just

with some broad.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

Jay! Jay! Jay!

Almost had a touchdown there.

I got your message. What's up?

Yeah. Remember that kid Matt you

met at my house the other night?

- Yeah, yeah. What about him?

- When was this?

What?

Last week sometime.

What about him?

Well, he sells steroids to these

muscle-heads out in Stoneham.

Yeah? There's money in that?

- I guess. He says 20 to 30 grand.

- 20 to 30 grand?

Yeah! Yeah.

Well, anyways, he's

been dealing a few years.

His connection

just got busted.

These f***ing clowns keep paging him

every day for more. They don't know.

- Is he for real? - I figured you guys

might want to take them.

- No bullshit.

- Yeah.

You know, it sounds good.

Sounds real good. All right, we'll

give you a call tomorrow. Thanks.

- Thanks, Jay.

- Paulie.

Be good.

You go over to his house?

What? I went to see

if he had the money.

This guy's pumping coke, man. You

don't think he's being watched?

Use your head.

- I went there for two minutes.

- Yeah, well.

- That mine?

- Yeah.

Thanks. Hey, who

won the Celtics game?

- Cavs by eight.

- F*** me.

- You bet those bums again?

- Yeah.

F***ing Celtics.

What'd you say?

- Who is that f***ing guy? - I don't know.

I never saw him before, Brian.

What the f***'s

that guy named? Dave?

Hey, it's me.

Who is this? Matt?

Do me a favor, will you?

Cook me up some of that sh*t.

I'm coming over right now.

- Hey, you got something to say to me?

- I didn't say nothing to you.

Keep your f***ing mouth shut.

Yeah.

So, Jay said something

about some steroid score.

- Oh, yeah. Yeah, I got these guys, right?

- F*** me.

- They got a lot of money.

- Yeah?

- A lot of money.

- What's the deal?

I'll set them up.

- Hey, they got a lot of money, you know.

- Okay.

Yeah.

- I think one of them is rich.

- Okay, dude.

What the f***. Who's that?

- Who is it?

- Get away from me.

- Hey, how much money am I gonna get?

- Come on, man. Get off of me for a second.

You guys are gonna take care of

me with some of that money, right?

Matt, Matt, shut the f*** up.

- I just wanna know how much I'm gonna get.

- Matt, shut the f*** up!

- Matt, what the f***'s going on? Huh?

- Nothing.

How many times did

I f***ing tell you?

- Brian.

- What?

This is my house. It's

3:
00 in the morning.

- Come on.

- You're right. You're right. Sorry, Jay.

I'm sorry.

How many times did I

f***ing tell you, Matt?

No one in the f***ing house! Clean

the f*** up, you f***ing clown!

Thanks, Charlie.

Look, one thing you gotta do is make sure

that he brings the money inside, all right?

Insist on that. Tell him that the steroids

are in the cellar in a cooler. All right?

Once he comes in, we'll take care

of the rest, all right? Right?

Yeah.

All right. What time are

you supposed to meet him?

2:
00 on Thursday.

2:
00. All right, at 2:30, we'll be in the
