Lucky Number Slevin
|
00:02:44 |
He's clean. |
00:02:48 |
So... |
00:02:49 |
Why are you here? Hm? |
00:04:43 |
There was a time. |
00:04:59 |
4:35. |
00:05:02 |
You misunderstood. |
00:05:04 |
I wasn't asking for the time, |
00:05:10 |
There was a time? |
00:05:12 |
Mm-hm. |
00:05:14 |
Take brown sugar back there, for example. |
00:05:17 |
She's pretty fucking foxy, right? |
00:05:21 |
She's 70. |
00:05:22 |
If she's a day. |
00:05:24 |
But there was a time. |
00:05:27 |
- I don't follow. |
00:05:31 |
- Listen, Mr. Smith... |
00:05:34 |
The reason I'm in town, |
00:05:39 |
...is because of a Kansas City Shuffle. |
00:05:42 |
What's a Kansas City Shuffle? |
00:05:45 |
Kansas City Shuffle is |
00:05:50 |
- Never heard of it. |
00:05:52 |
It's not something people hear about. |
00:05:55 |
Falls on deaf ears mostly. |
00:05:58 |
But this particular one's |
00:06:01 |
20 years, huh? |
00:06:03 |
No small matter. |
00:06:08 |
Requires a lot of planning. |
00:06:11 |
It involves a lot of people. |
00:06:14 |
People connected only |
00:06:18 |
Like whispers in the night... |
00:06:21 |
...in that place that never forgets |
00:06:31 |
It all starts with a horse. |
00:06:38 |
It's what they called back then |
00:06:42 |
A guy wants what the fella calls a sure thing, |
00:06:47 |
He calls in the doc, a nobler from Antwerp |
00:06:55 |
Oh, fuck me, baby, fuck me, baby. |
00:06:57 |
The same could be said |
00:07:00 |
- Almost there, almost there. |
00:07:03 |
Hey, which horse did you say |
00:07:15 |
Which brings us to Abe, because Gloria |
00:07:20 |
Hey, baby, is your wife around? |
00:07:22 |
- What do you want? |
00:07:25 |
Ah... it's Seymour. |
00:07:27 |
Sure, tell that bitch to open her eyes, |
00:07:32 |
Seymour says hello. |
00:07:34 |
What are you doing calling me here? |
00:07:37 |
Christmas came early this year, baby. |
00:07:40 |
Remember my friend Doc? |
00:07:42 |
Now Abe wasn't a nosy fella, |
00:07:46 |
And right below his nose was his mouth. |
00:07:50 |
Do you remember Gloria the hooker? |
00:07:52 |
Well, Gloria's got this friend Doc |
00:07:57 |
The fix is in at Aqueduct. |
00:07:59 |
- Seventh horse. Tenth race. |
00:08:01 |
And then there was this joker who had ears... |
00:08:05 |
Let's get back. |
00:08:07 |
... who looked like somebody's uncle. |
00:08:09 |
Max, who's your favorite uncle? |
00:08:11 |
OK, who's your second favorite uncle? |
00:08:14 |
Just pay attention. |
00:08:15 |
I got something here. |
00:08:17 |
And before you know it, |
00:08:21 |
and men start talking their hats off. |
00:08:24 |
And that Manischewitz Grapevine Wine spills in |
00:08:29 |
and what's worse is, you start to believe it. |
00:08:32 |
At least that's how it went with old Max, |
00:08:34 |
who wasn't so much old. as he was tired. |
00:08:37 |
Tired of being a dog without a day. |
00:08:40 |
Tired of waking up and finding |
00:08:43 |
We're leaving. |
00:08:44 |
But mostly, |
00:08:48 |
Make sure he doesn't come home late. |
00:08:50 |
- I will. |
00:08:53 |
- You think that's funny, do you? |
00:08:55 |
Uh-huh. Bye, Mom. |
00:08:57 |
Yeah. Bye, Mom! |
00:08:59 |
Love you. |
00:09:05 |
They're off. |
00:09:11 |
All right, if your ma asks, |
00:09:14 |
- Shea Stadium. |
00:09:15 |
- Mets v Phillies. |
00:09:18 |
Stallard gave up six runs in the first five innings. |
00:09:21 |
Ed Kranepool hit a line drive down right field |
00:09:25 |
Gonder hit a groundball |
00:09:28 |
but he's so slow, second baseman |
00:09:33 |
Did you get all that from the radio? |
00:09:35 |
Mm-hm. |
00:09:36 |
You're good. |
00:09:38 |
OK, I'll be right back. |
00:09:40 |
No, no, no. You've got to stay in the car. |
00:09:42 |
Why? |
00:09:44 |
Because they don't let little boys inside the track. |
00:09:48 |
Saul's dad takes him to the track. |
00:09:50 |
Well, Saul's dad is a degenerate gambler. |
00:09:52 |
And if you're the son of a degenerate gambler, |
00:09:56 |
It's economically viable. |
00:09:58 |
Are you going to be a degenerate gambler? |
00:10:01 |
Hey. You know better than that. |
00:10:04 |
Your old man's smart. |
00:10:09 |
Look. |
00:10:12 |
And you're gonna be a doctor. |
00:10:14 |
But until then... |
00:10:16 |
you've got to stay in the car. |
00:10:20 |
Hey. |
00:10:22 |
Next weekend, you and me go to a ballgame. |
00:10:26 |
- OK. |
00:10:27 |
I love you, kid. |
00:10:29 |
I love you too, Dad. |
00:10:32 |
Wait, watch. Watch, watch, watch. |
00:10:34 |
I almost forgot. 15 minutes. |
00:10:36 |
Start counting. |
00:10:42 |
The next race at the Aqueduct is the tenth race. |
00:10:54 |
- Come on, come on. |
00:10:58 |
the final turn, and Number Seven has moved |
00:11:02 |
- Number Two has the lead... |
00:11:05 |
Come on. |
00:11:07 |
Number One is against the rail. |
00:11:10 |
And Number Seven is beginning |
00:11:14 |
Yes! |
00:11:15 |
Yes, come on, baby, come on! |
00:11:18 |
- Let's go! |
00:11:21 |
... to challenge, goes clear |
00:11:26 |
It's Number Seven who now has the lead. |
00:11:28 |
It's strolling clear. |
00:11:30 |
Yes! |
00:11:34 |
Oh! |
00:11:37 |
Number Seven has fallen! |
00:11:42 |
Number One comes home |
00:11:44 |
Max woke up to find his dreams |
00:11:47 |
- I want to place a bet. |
00:11:50 |
20 large. |
00:11:52 |
Oh, you must feel real lucky. |
00:11:56 |
I'll take your bet. |
00:11:57 |
And lay it off. |
00:11:59 |
I've got a bookie's bookie. |
00:12:02 |
I'll give you 2-1 on the horse. |
00:12:04 |
Uh-uh. The racing form says 9-1. |
00:12:08 |
So you go to a ticket vendor |
00:12:11 |
and you get 9-1 if the spread sticks. |
00:12:14 |
You come in here with your pockets turned out, |
00:12:18 |
The juice is ten. |
00:12:20 |
That means if you lose, you're all in for 22 grand. |
00:12:24 |
20 for the bet, two for the juice. |
00:12:27 |
Can you pay these monies? Huh? Can you? |
00:12:32 |
Yeah. |
00:12:39 |
Just to be clear. |
00:12:41 |
if you lose... |
00:12:44 |
...you're gonna owe a lot of money |
00:12:47 |
you do not want to owe |
00:13:06 |
Henry! |
00:13:09 |
Henry! |
00:13:14 |
Henry! |
00:13:18 |
Henry! |
00:13:21 |
Hey, buddy. You got a light? |
00:13:23 |
No. Henry! |
00:13:25 |
In that case, how about the 20 Gs |
00:13:29 |
- What have you done with my son? |
00:13:32 |
Urgh! |
00:13:42 |
Where am I? |
00:13:50 |
Roth, he'll tell you everything, I swear. |
00:13:57 |
He already has. |
00:14:05 |
Please. |
00:14:08 |
I have a family. |
00:14:12 |
Please. |
00:14:14 |
Please! |
00:14:16 |
Where's my boy? |
00:14:20 |
Henry! |
00:14:26 |
Where are they? |
00:14:31 |
Henry! |
00:14:35 |
Henry! |
00:14:52 |
Fuck. |
00:14:53 |
Shit. |
00:14:55 |
Jesus. |
00:14:57 |
"Fuck, shit, Jesus" is right. |
00:14:59 |
I don't understand. |
00:15:02 |
New outfit in town. |
00:15:04 |
They didn't want somebody else |
00:15:09 |
Trying to make an impression. |
00:15:13 |
That's a fucking story, man. |
00:15:15 |
Charlie Chaplin entered a Charlie Chaplin |
00:15:20 |
and came in third. |
00:15:22 |
Now that's a story. |
00:15:26 |
This... |
00:15:28 |
This is something else. |
00:15:30 |
So that's a Kansas City Shuffle? |
00:15:33 |
No. |
00:15:34 |
It's just the inciting incident. |
00:15:37 |
The catalyst. |
00:15:40 |
This - is a Kansas City Shuffle. |
00:15:45 |
They look right... |
00:15:47 |
And you... |
00:15:49 |
go left. |
00:15:59 |
Sorry about that, son. |
00:16:02 |
Sometimes there's more to life than just living. |
00:16:06 |
Besides... you can't have a Kansas City Shuffle |
00:17:08 |
- He's down! |
00:17:10 |
Up there! |
00:18:07 |
I'm coming! |
00:18:11 |
Coming. |
00:18:17 |
It took you long enough. |
00:18:20 |
You're not Nick. |
00:18:21 |
You're not as tall as I thought you'd be. |
00:18:24 |
Well, I'm short for my height. |
00:18:28 |
That makes sense because I can usually |
00:18:32 |
You have a deceptively tall knock. |
00:18:36 |
So it's a good thing? |
00:18:38 |
I open the door expecting you to be up here, |
00:18:42 |
That combined with a low center of gravity - |
00:18:45 |
Who are you? |
00:18:47 |
I'm Slevin. |
00:18:49 |
And what happened to your nose? |
00:18:52 |
I was using it to break some guy's fist. |
00:18:54 |
Somebody hit you? |
00:18:56 |
Yeah... I was kind of expecting it, though. |
00:18:58 |
You were kind of expecting it? |
00:19:00 |
Well, they say bad things happen in threes. |
00:19:05 |
First... I lost my job. |
00:19:07 |
Then I came home to find |
00:19:11 |
due to a hybrid breed |
00:19:14 |
So I went to my girlfriend Kelly's. |
00:19:18 |
I had a key so I let myself in. |
00:19:31 |
- Hey, don't stop on my account. |
00:19:36 |
Slevin. |
00:19:37 |
It was an accident. |
00:19:40 |
What, like he tripped and you fell? |
00:19:46 |
Slevin, do you know what time it is? |
00:19:48 |
I'm at the airport, |
00:19:51 |
Yeah, two weeks in New York |
00:19:54 |
is the Kelly who gave you your first hand job |
00:19:58 |
Kelly Perkins. Said her hands were dry |
00:20:01 |
She said that to a lot of guys, |
00:20:05 |
- Just call me when you land, all right? |
00:20:17 |
Yeah, I just got into town, Nick. |
00:20:20 |
Say, man, you got the time? |
00:20:22 |
Ya, man, it's uh... 7:23. |
00:20:26 |
So you're probably still asleep? |
00:20:28 |
- Yo, you got a smoke? |
00:20:31 |
Why don't you just go ahead and give me |
00:20:35 |
Am I being mugged? |
00:20:39 |
Man! |
00:20:40 |
And so here I am. |
00:20:43 |
You said three. |
00:20:45 |
- What? |
00:20:48 |
You lost your job, your apartment was |
00:20:52 |
and you got mugged - that makes four. |
00:20:54 |
When you're on a roll, you're on a roll. |
00:20:56 |
Interesting, although I would add, |
00:20:58 |
not the ever so clever hold-up man |
00:21:00 |
- Well, he did break my nose. |
00:21:04 |
Maybe it wouldn't make for a speedy getaway. |
00:21:06 |
True, but then there's the matter of your watch. |
00:21:09 |
- It's a fake. |
00:21:11 |
- Maybe he didn't see it. |
00:21:14 |
You say this was your third mugging? |
00:21:16 |
Uh... I travel a lot. |
00:21:18 |
Where's Nick? |
00:21:20 |
I don't know. He was supposed to |
00:21:23 |
- How did you get in? |
00:21:25 |
- Door was open? |
00:21:28 |
- Open or unlocked? |
00:21:30 |
- You said open. |
00:21:33 |
Lindsey. I live across the hall. |
00:21:35 |
- Oh. |
00:21:38 |
- Where's your cup? |
00:21:40 |
If I had a cup, I'd have come to borrow sugar. |
00:21:42 |
- Touché. |
00:21:44 |
Maybe that's Nick. It's right there. |
00:21:48 |
Hello? |
00:21:50 |
Hello? |
00:21:54 |
They hung up. |
00:21:56 |
I have an idea. Have you used the phone |
00:21:59 |
No, except for that. |
00:22:02 |
Sorry, wrong number. |
00:22:04 |
That was the Hotel Cheval. |
00:22:06 |
What are you doing? |
00:22:08 |
We know who he called. Who called him? |
00:22:10 |
- Columbo says three things... |
00:22:12 |
Yeah, Columbo was this TV detective |
00:22:15 |
I know who Columbo is. Yeah. |
00:22:18 |
He looked for three things at a crime scene. |
00:22:20 |
What's there now that wasn't before. |
00:22:23 |
- And what's been moved. |
00:22:26 |
- I think Nick's in trouble. |
00:22:28 |
Sorry, wrong number. |
00:22:29 |
That was the Hotel Cheval again! |
00:22:32 |
So what? He called the hotel, |
00:22:36 |
So, maybe it's a clue. |
00:22:38 |
- A clue to what? |
00:22:41 |
- We don't know anything did. |
00:22:44 |
You're here, he's not. The door was open. |
00:22:47 |
Shit. I've got to stop by work. |
00:22:50 |
Just for a couple of hours. I'll come back, |
00:22:55 |
- The investigation? |
00:22:57 |
OK. |
00:23:01 |
I totally forgot... |
00:23:05 |
Yeah. |
00:23:08 |
Sorry. |
00:23:09 |
- May I borrow a cup of sugar? |
00:23:12 |
I never gave it much thought |
00:23:15 |
I was on my way to the store |
00:23:18 |
You tell me your story, I leave, sugarless. |
00:23:21 |
I come back, you put your penis on exhibition. |
00:23:23 |
Although the coffee's probably gone bad |
00:23:27 |
It's like a Norman Rockwell painting. |
00:23:30 |
What, my penis? |
00:23:31 |
No. No, the sugar. |
00:23:34 |
Neighbors borrowing sugar from one another. |
00:23:36 |
It's very um... Andy Griffith. |
00:23:39 |
Yeah. |
00:23:40 |
That's Andy Griffith. |
00:23:43 |
No. |
00:23:45 |
Thanks for the sugar... sugar. |
00:23:56 |
I wanted to try and catch the next show. |
00:23:59 |
I don't go on again till eight. |
00:24:07 |
Whew! |
00:24:15 |
It's not nearly eight o'clock yet. |
00:24:19 |
- The Boss wants to see you. |
00:24:22 |
- The Boss. |
00:24:24 |
- The guy we work for. |
00:24:27 |
Come here and sit your punk ass down. |
00:24:30 |
Go. |
00:24:32 |
I'm not the guy you're looking for. |
00:24:35 |
Well, you look like the guy that lives here. |
00:24:38 |
Then you don't know what he looks like. |
00:24:40 |
He means to say you look like you live here. |
00:24:42 |
Yeah, that's what I mean to say. |
00:24:45 |
I look like I live here, but I don't. |
00:24:47 |
I'm just visiting, I just got in this morning. |
00:24:49 |
The cat I'm looking for, his name is uh... |
00:24:53 |
- His name is Nick, man. |
00:24:55 |
The cat's name is Nick. Now... |
00:24:59 |
Who are you? |
00:25:01 |
I'm Slevin. |
00:25:04 |
You got some ID? |
00:25:09 |
The funny thing about that is |
00:25:11 |
Look, look. |
00:25:13 |
Tell it to the One Legged Man. |
00:25:15 |
So he can bump it off down the road. |
00:25:27 |
- Hey, listen, motherfucker... |
00:25:29 |
- Slow, slow, slow, slow your roll, man. |
00:25:32 |
Just let me. Just let me, all right? |
00:25:34 |
Motherfucker! |
00:25:36 |
All I know is, |
00:25:39 |
and he says, "Sloe" - that's him. |
00:25:41 |
"Elvis" - that's me. |
00:25:43 |
"Bring me the cat |
00:25:46 |
Now he told me that today. |
00:25:48 |
You just so happen to be here today. |
00:25:50 |
So I guess you the cat I'm supposed to pick up. |
00:25:54 |
Today. |
00:25:55 |
But I'm not Nick. |
00:25:57 |
Yeah, well, unfortunately for you, |
00:25:59 |
you're not the first cat to tell me |
00:26:03 |
You can ask Lindsey, she lives across the hall. |
00:26:06 |
Hold on, man, I ain't asking nobody nothing. |
00:26:08 |
Nick, Slevin, Clark Kent - |
00:26:11 |
The Virgin Mary could come waltzing up |
00:26:14 |
titties hanging out and everything. |
00:26:16 |
If she told me your name was Jesus Christ, I |
00:26:21 |
No. |
00:26:22 |
Orders. |
00:26:24 |
Now, you do know what orders is, right? |
00:26:26 |
Orders is orders. |
00:26:30 |
So I guess no-one ever taught you not to use |
00:26:40 |
Say something else, I will break |
00:26:44 |
My nose is already broken. |
00:26:53 |
- Can I just say one more thing? |
00:26:55 |
Can you turn the heat up in here |
00:26:58 |
Uh... yeah. |
00:27:00 |
Y-You... You should have thought about that |
00:27:35 |
Ah, Jeez. |
00:27:49 |
- It's cold out there. |
00:28:05 |
Yo, grab his ass. |
00:28:11 |
The boss is right up there, chump. |
00:28:34 |
Well, listen. |
00:28:36 |
Your boys Elvis and Sloe |
00:28:40 |
- I'm not Nick Fisher. |
00:28:44 |
Are you familiar with The Shmoo, Mr. Fisher? |
00:28:47 |
A comic strip I liked as a boy. |
00:28:50 |
The Shmoo was a loveable creature, really. |
00:28:53 |
Laid eggs... |
00:28:55 |
gave milk... |
00:28:58 |
...and died of sheer ecstasy |
00:29:04 |
The Shmoo loved to be eaten. |
00:29:06 |
It could taste like any food you desire. |
00:29:09 |
Shmoo hide, cut thin, made fine leather. |
00:29:14 |
Even Shmoo whiskers |
00:29:18 |
In essence, the Shmoo supplied |
00:29:23 |
I only bring up the Shmoo because it's relevant |
00:29:28 |
I'm sorry, who are you? |
00:29:30 |
I'm The Boss. |
00:29:31 |
I thought he was The Boss. |
00:29:34 |
Why? |
00:29:36 |
Do we look alike? |
00:29:39 |
So, Mr. Fisher... |
00:29:43 |
I don't know, you brought me here. |
00:29:45 |
Yes, I did. |
00:29:46 |
Back when you thought I was him. |
00:29:49 |
I never thought you were him. |
00:29:52 |
I was trying to tell him, you... |
00:29:55 |
- Wrong guy for what? |
00:29:57 |
- Know what I wanted to see you about? |
00:30:00 |
Then how do you know I have the wrong guy? |
00:30:02 |
- Because I'm not... |
00:30:05 |
In that case, do I still have the wrong guy? |
00:30:08 |
Do you want to give me $96,000? |
00:30:11 |
No, do you want to give me $96,000? |
00:30:14 |
No, should I? |
00:30:15 |
I don't know, should you? |
00:30:20 |
I don't know, should I? |
00:30:27 |
Long story short. |
00:30:30 |
- I think we're well past that point. |
00:30:37 |
OK, I'm under the impression that you're |
00:30:42 |
No, you owe Slim Hopkins $96,000. |
00:30:47 |
You owe Slim, Slim owes me. |
00:30:50 |
You owe me. |
00:30:56 |
Well, in that case, is Slim around? |
00:31:03 |
Hey, Slim. Do you know this cat? |
00:31:09 |
Slim? |
00:31:12 |
No use. |
00:31:15 |
Ever since somebody shot him, |
00:31:19 |
What happened to make Slim go deaf? |
00:31:21 |
Why? |
00:31:24 |
Because I owe you $96,000 and I might have |
00:31:29 |
Oh, OK. |
00:31:30 |
Well, why don't we just make it an even 90? |
00:31:36 |
I may have exaggerated the slightness. |
00:31:40 |
Hm. |
00:31:41 |
Well, why don't I just cancel the whole debt |
00:31:49 |
Well, that depends on the favor. |
00:31:54 |
That was my son. |
00:31:57 |
Notice how I said "was"? |
00:32:00 |
Yeah. |
00:32:02 |
That's because he's dead. |
00:32:06 |
Murdered. |
00:32:09 |
Relegated to the past tense. |
00:32:13 |
Sent from an is to a was |
00:32:18 |
Bummer. |
00:32:27 |
Lex Talionis. |
00:32:29 |
The Law of Retaliation. |
00:32:47 |
A pact was broken. |
00:32:49 |
My son was murdered, |
00:32:54 |
Whose son? |
00:32:56 |
The Rabbi's. |
00:32:57 |
Why do they call him The Rabbi? |
00:33:00 |
Because... |
00:33:04 |
Because he's a rabbi. |
00:33:05 |
Who's his son? |
00:33:08 |
- Yitzchok. |
00:33:10 |
Yitzchok the Fairy. |
00:33:14 |
Why do they call him The Fairy? |
00:33:19 |
Because he's a fairy. |
00:33:21 |
He has wings, can fly? |
00:33:25 |
- He's homosexual. |
00:33:27 |
Come on. |
00:33:32 |
- So how does The Rabbi feel about that? |
00:33:35 |
- You know, but he doesn't? |
00:33:38 |
- Except The Rabbi. |
00:33:40 |
So where do I fit in? |
00:33:42 |
You? |
00:33:45 |
You're the trigger man. |
00:33:49 |
Me? |
00:33:50 |
You. |
00:33:59 |
Aren't there professionals? |
00:34:04 |
Of course there are. |
00:34:06 |
Yes. |
00:34:08 |
But you owe me $96,000. |
00:34:10 |
Why should I go out and pay someone else |
00:34:15 |
Hm. Sorry, kid, |
00:34:21 |
Which means you're in my pocket. |
00:34:23 |
Which means |
00:34:26 |
you're gonna go from my pocket to my fridge. |
00:34:30 |
Slim could use the company. |
00:34:32 |
I could use the Shmoo. |
00:34:34 |
So I'll expect your answer by morning. |
00:34:38 |
Is there anything else? |
00:34:41 |
Well, I don't suppose I have to say anything |
00:34:45 |
"Go to the police and you're a dead man." |
00:34:47 |
I think you just did. |
00:34:49 |
I guess I did. |
00:34:55 |
So, let me see if I've got this right. |
00:35:00 |
I'm paying you a lot of money to kill somebody |
00:35:07 |
Don't worry. |
00:35:09 |
I'm gonna kill somebody. |
00:35:18 |
Better call Brikowski. |
00:35:20 |
Tell him there's a new face in town. |
00:35:59 |
- Hey. |
00:36:01 |
- No. |
00:36:03 |
Oh... Lindsey... |
00:36:06 |
- It's a very long story. |
00:36:09 |
Where are we going? |
00:36:11 |
All we know is that somebody called Nick |
00:36:14 |
I spoke to a friend who works there. |
00:36:16 |
They keep a record of every call made. |
00:36:18 |
She can access the computer and we can |
00:36:23 |
What is it? |
00:36:24 |
- I know this guy. |
00:36:27 |
This guy. |
00:36:30 |
You know that guy? |
00:36:32 |
Yeah, I met him. |
00:36:34 |
He was dead. |
00:36:38 |
You met a dead guy? |
00:36:40 |
Yeah. |
00:36:42 |
In a walk-in freezer. |
00:36:48 |
Bookmaker Slim Hopkins reported missing. |
00:36:51 |
Blah, blah, blah. Yada, yada... |
00:36:53 |
A spokesperson commented off the record, |
00:36:57 |
considering he's allegedly been behind |
00:37:05 |
I think it's time you told me that story |
00:37:09 |
- Do you mind if I get dressed first? |
00:37:12 |
Could be my friend from the hotel. Be right back. |
00:37:18 |
Hm. |
00:37:31 |
Hey, Lindsey, I don't think it's such a good idea |
00:37:36 |
Put your shoes on, Schlomo wants to see you. |
00:37:42 |
I don't know anyone named Schlomo. |
00:37:45 |
Someone named Schlomo knows you. |
00:37:49 |
Let's go. |
00:37:50 |
Like I said, I don't know... |
00:37:54 |
Aaahh... better... |
00:37:57 |
I think it's better if you let me do the talking. |
00:38:00 |
You think? |
00:38:08 |
What is it? |
00:38:13 |
He's sorry that he hit you. |
00:38:14 |
- Do you always speak for him? |
00:38:18 |
Hm. |
00:38:20 |
So, he's a mute, then. |
00:38:22 |
Not quite. |
00:38:23 |
Well, what, then? |
00:38:25 |
It's personal. You'll have to ask him. |
00:38:28 |
- Hm. How would he tell me? |
00:38:35 |
- Hey, are we going to the? |
00:38:37 |
- But he's right there. |
00:38:41 |
Right across the street from one another? |
00:38:43 |
At one time they were one with one another. |
00:38:49 |
And now neither man leaves |
00:38:53 |
for fear of what the other man will do to him. |
00:39:05 |
Let me guess, all the way up? |
00:39:10 |
Penthouse. |
00:39:41 |
You must be Mr. Fisher. |
00:39:46 |
Must I? Because... that hasn't been |
00:39:49 |
- But I'm afraid you must. |
00:39:53 |
Do you know for what reason |
00:39:59 |
For starters, I'm unlucky. |
00:40:01 |
The unlucky are nothing more than |
00:40:05 |
You are unlucky so I may know that I am not. |
00:40:08 |
Unfortunately, the lucky never realize |
00:40:12 |
Take yourself for instance. Yesterday |
00:40:15 |
but it took today for you to realize it. But... |
00:40:22 |
People are never happy with what they have. |
00:40:25 |
They always want what they had, |
00:40:29 |
Kinda like a rabbi |
00:40:31 |
a gangster who would rather be a rabbi. |
00:40:33 |
I mean, what is that? |
00:40:35 |
Some sort of grass is always greener |
00:40:38 |
I mean, how do you justify being a rabbi |
00:40:41 |
and a gangster? |
00:40:47 |
I don't. |
00:40:49 |
I'm a bad man who doesn't waste time |
00:40:52 |
when I am what could've been or not have been. |
00:40:55 |
I live on both sides of the fence, |
00:40:59 |
Consider, Mr. Fisher... |
00:41:02 |
...there are two men sitting here before you, |
00:41:04 |
and one of them you should be very afraid of. |
00:41:08 |
- I've been hearing that a lot lately. |
00:41:11 |
"The first time somebody calls you a horse, |
00:41:14 |
The second time somebody calls you a horse, |
00:41:17 |
But the third time somebody calls you a horse, |
00:41:30 |
- I don't have your money. |
00:41:34 |
You owe me money. |
00:41:38 |
- I don't even know how much money I owe you. |
00:41:41 |
- But I'm not Nick fisher. |
00:41:43 |
I'm just a guy who was in the wrong place |
00:41:50 |
You have 48 hours to get my money. |
00:41:52 |
Saul will keep an eye on you. |
00:42:02 |
Wait, I just have one question. |
00:42:05 |
I wasn't frisked. |
00:42:13 |
I see. So, being a rabbi, a... a religious man... |
00:42:17 |
There are three things a Jew may not do |
00:42:21 |
He may not idol-worship, commit adultery, |
00:42:28 |
Killing you before you killed me |
00:42:30 |
- Kosher. |
00:42:36 |
Acceptable. |
00:42:57 |
I've wired half the money |
00:42:59 |
The other half will be deposited |
00:43:03 |
Now I can expect that when? |
00:43:09 |
- Very soon. |
00:43:11 |
So, tell me. The kid... |
00:43:15 |
What do you want with him? |
00:43:19 |
The kid and I have unfinished business. |
00:43:31 |
If there's one thing I know, |
00:43:34 |
A man in my position, it's all he has to go on. |
00:43:38 |
To know a lie when he hears it, |
00:43:42 |
your own, someone else's. |
00:43:44 |
That being said, he wasn't lying. |
00:43:48 |
That's not Nick Fisher. |
00:43:51 |
I know. |
00:44:02 |
I came back here, you were gone. So, |
00:44:07 |
She says the call to Nick came from Room 1009. |
00:44:10 |
A fellow registered under the name of Smith, |
00:44:14 |
It's one of the most common names in the world, |
00:44:18 |
But I get the feeling that this ain't one of 'em. |
00:44:20 |
I get up to the tenth floor, and just as I do, |
00:44:23 |
the door to room 1009 opens |
00:44:27 |
So, I pretend I'm walking to the elevator instead |
00:44:32 |
He smiles at me - thanks - I smile back. |
00:44:36 |
But I have no idea who he is |
00:44:38 |
so I take a picture using my cellphone |
00:44:42 |
cos the photos look like shit and I never use it. |
00:44:44 |
So there I am pretending to dial a number, |
00:44:50 |
This is Smith. Recognize him? |
00:44:52 |
No. |
00:44:54 |
I didn't think you would, but it was worth a shot. |
00:44:59 |
and the man who calls himself Smith |
00:45:03 |
So I followed him. |
00:45:10 |
He went down |
00:45:14 |
So I wait. An hour goes by. |
00:45:17 |
And just when I'm getting ready to leave - |
00:45:20 |
- Smith? |
00:45:27 |
Me? |
00:45:30 |
You out of the same building |
00:45:35 |
Friends of yours? |
00:45:38 |
Not exactly. |
00:45:39 |
I think it's time you told me that story. |
00:45:43 |
Well, there's this guy |
00:45:47 |
And then, right across the street |
00:45:51 |
- Why do they call him The Rabbi? |
00:46:01 |
So now I have to "take out", |
00:46:05 |
The Fairy, in order to scratch a debt |
00:46:08 |
And if that's not enough, I have 48 hours to |
00:46:15 |
I don't know who Mr. Smith is. |
00:46:18 |
And the worst part about it is, |
00:46:21 |
Ironic. |
00:46:23 |
I know, I don't even gamble. |
00:46:25 |
No, I mean the mobster having a gay son. |
00:46:31 |
We are dealing with a bona fide case |
00:46:34 |
Things like that aren't supposed to be real. |
00:46:38 |
Notwithstanding, here you are, |
00:46:42 |
I'd say you're fucked. |
00:46:45 |
Fucked. |
00:46:50 |
Shouldn't you be a little worried about this? |
00:46:53 |
I have Ataraxia. |
00:46:55 |
Ataraxia? |
00:46:57 |
It's a condition characterized by freedom |
00:47:05 |
I have to have my answer |
00:47:07 |
Oh, what are you gonna say? |
00:47:11 |
What a man with two penises would say |
00:47:13 |
- if he dresses to the right or to the left. |
00:47:19 |
Yes. |
00:47:21 |
I knew you had sense. |
00:47:24 |
Sense is something you have |
00:47:27 |
Sometimes. |
00:47:29 |
Sometimes it's when you know you don't. |
00:47:33 |
Nah, don't move that bishop! |
00:47:37 |
If you don't, y-y-you can have him in four moves. |
00:47:40 |
If you do, he's gonna have you in mate in one. |
00:47:46 |
He doesn't see it. |
00:47:47 |
Wouldn't matter if he did. |
00:47:50 |
Elvis lets me win. |
00:47:53 |
Everybody lets me win. |
00:47:56 |
Wait a minute. You know this game? |
00:48:06 |
You got three days. |
00:48:09 |
I was thinking it would take me a week. |
00:48:11 |
Oh, you were thinking that, were you? |
00:48:14 |
With all your experience killing people? |
00:48:20 |
You win this game, you got your week. |
00:48:27 |
Hm. |
00:48:38 |
So, what's the plan with Yitzchok? |
00:48:43 |
Was gonna play it by ear. |
00:48:45 |
Well, if it's all the same, |
00:48:49 |
And, by the way, he has shadows. |
00:48:55 |
Shadows? |
00:00:02 |
With him all the time. |
00:00:06 |
Military. |
00:00:13 |
Ex-Israeli Mossad. |
00:00:16 |
They go where he goes, |
00:00:21 |
Ex-Israeli Mossad. |
00:00:25 |
That doesn't sound good. |
00:00:27 |
They live in the apartment next door. |
00:00:31 |
He wears a panic button on a chain |
00:00:33 |
Looks like an ordinary Star of David. |
00:00:36 |
He presses that button |
00:00:40 |
What's this? |
00:00:42 |
Oh, God! No, you didn't? |
00:00:46 |
- Get down! |
00:00:50 |
Response time's gonna be |
00:00:53 |
He's gonna have to hit him |
00:00:55 |
Where? |
00:00:57 |
- Where? |
00:01:02 |
How do I get in his apartment? |
00:01:06 |
No, I was thinking you'd use the back door. |
00:01:16 |
Then what? |
00:01:18 |
He does the kid, I do him. |
00:01:21 |
I plant my gun. Clean, no history. |
00:01:24 |
And Yitzchok - fire a round, |
00:01:30 |
Take the clothes off - make it look like a, |
00:01:34 |
"You do me, I do you, we're both gay, the |
00:01:39 |
And that's all there is to it. |
00:01:42 |
Is that all there is to it? |
00:01:45 |
Yeah. It's all there is to it. |
00:01:56 |
Peww! |
00:02:00 |
I'm not such a bad guy, you know. |
00:02:04 |
Some folks have grown pretty fat off me. |
00:02:09 |
Some have grown pretty dead. |
00:02:16 |
You're a conundrum, you. |
00:02:19 |
You walk in here shooting your fucking mouth off |
00:02:25 |
You can only kill me once. |
00:02:35 |
Checkmate. |
00:02:42 |
Nobody says I have to kill you quick. |
00:02:48 |
Cat. |
00:02:50 |
Mouse. |
00:02:54 |
You've got three days. |
00:03:00 |
Excuse me. |
00:03:23 |
Who the fuck is this guy? |
00:03:25 |
Dunno. But whoever he is, he's either in |
00:03:29 |
because he's playing in the sandbox with |
00:03:34 |
Call Murph and see if he got a match |
00:03:38 |
Yes, boss. |
00:03:40 |
I want a complete rundown on this fucker. |
00:03:44 |
Who he is. Who does he know? |
00:03:47 |
I want to know |
00:04:00 |
- What have you got? |
00:04:02 |
The Kat's in town. |
00:04:05 |
Goodkat? |
00:04:06 |
- It's the song junkies are singing. |
00:04:08 |
Didn't know the happenstance. |
00:04:13 |
Um... who's er... who's Goodkat? |
00:04:15 |
Real heavy hitter. |
00:04:18 |
- The heaviest. |
00:04:21 |
No-one knows who he is, or what he looks like. |
00:04:23 |
And he hasn't worked New York |
00:04:27 |
Just what we need. |
00:04:29 |
All right. |
00:04:31 |
And get some different fucking coffee in here, |
00:04:44 |
- Hey! I figured it out. |
00:04:47 |
You said that Slim Hopkins worked |
00:04:50 |
Well, listen. |
00:04:52 |
The Rabbi also had a bookie - Benny Begin. |
00:04:53 |
Benny's at the morgue. |
00:04:56 |
- The morgue? |
00:04:59 |
No, you didn't say you were a coroner. |
00:05:03 |
Benny Begin - killed by a baseball. |
00:05:06 |
My guess was a fastball. |
00:05:09 |
Well, either way it proves |
00:05:13 |
- Good morning, Detective. |
00:05:15 |
- You know this guy? |
00:05:18 |
- Why do they call him The Rabbi? |
00:05:21 |
Between you and me... |
00:05:24 |
20 years ago he used to be my bookie. |
00:05:29 |
What about the other two? |
00:05:32 |
These two were poisoned. |
00:05:34 |
Something exotic. |
00:05:36 |
- I'm running it down. |
00:05:39 |
Will do. |
00:05:41 |
Prick. |
00:05:46 |
- Have a good day. |
00:05:54 |
Jimmy, I'm taking my lunch break. |
00:05:57 |
Don't you see? |
00:06:01 |
- Nick set me up? |
00:06:03 |
Nick found himself in a jam. |
00:06:06 |
He paid a street thug to mug you, |
00:06:09 |
so he ignores the watch and suitcase. |
00:06:11 |
Then Nick kills Slim Hopkins and Benny. |
00:06:13 |
the only guys who know what he looks like, |
00:06:17 |
- But I called Nick. I initiated contact. |
00:06:21 |
- What about Smith? |
00:06:24 |
Hm. |
00:06:25 |
- You should run. |
00:06:28 |
- They'll kill you if you stay. |
00:06:30 |
- Go to the police! |
00:06:34 |
This isn't the first time this has happened. |
00:06:36 |
This isn't the first time a crime lord asked you |
00:06:39 |
to pay off a friend's debt whose place you're |
00:06:43 |
and found your girlfriend with another guy? |
00:06:45 |
It is the first time it happened. But Nick has been |
00:06:50 |
I guess I've always been a better friend to him... |
00:06:52 |
Yeah, I'd love to hear the rest of this |
00:06:57 |
- Oh, hey. Hey. |
00:07:01 |
I was just thinking that if you're still alive |
00:07:06 |
I don't know, |
00:07:13 |
Yeah, that would be great, yeah. |
00:07:15 |
- Really? |
00:07:17 |
Yeah. |
00:07:19 |
OK. Um... No. Bye. |
00:07:27 |
Hm... |
00:07:30 |
Weird. |
00:07:42 |
What? |
00:07:43 |
I was just thinking about what it would be like |
00:07:48 |
See, I think people should only fall in love |
00:07:53 |
You know, seeing as you have to tell it |
00:07:57 |
If you and I fell in love, |
00:08:00 |
We'd be at a dinner party and someone |
00:08:04 |
And I'd say, "You tell the story, dear." |
00:08:12 |
So, come here often? |
00:08:16 |
No. But I heard about someone who does. |
00:08:22 |
- You mean... The Fairy? |
00:08:24 |
- Is he? |
00:08:27 |
Where? |
00:08:34 |
This is absurd. What are you thinking? |
00:08:38 |
- I'm thinking of a new option. |
00:08:40 |
- Talking with him. |
00:08:42 |
Talking. |
00:08:42 |
You're gonna go over and say, "I'm Slevin, |
00:08:46 |
And I'm gonna have to take you out |
00:08:49 |
and I was wondering, |
00:08:52 |
- I can't do that. |
00:08:54 |
Look, I can't just walk over there. |
00:08:57 |
Aside from that, you're pretty much dead-on. |
00:09:00 |
- Bodyguards? |
00:09:04 |
Beards. Right behind him. |
00:09:07 |
See 'em? |
00:09:12 |
- You're getting good at this. |
00:09:14 |
How are you gonna have a talk with him? |
00:09:16 |
When he goes to the bathroom, |
00:09:19 |
What do you think? |
00:09:22 |
Could someone tell me why I'm in the van? |
00:09:26 |
Because I could only get a reservation for two. |
00:09:30 |
All right, The Fairy's at a table in the middle. |
00:09:33 |
Bodyguards nearby. |
00:09:34 |
Our boy's not far away |
00:09:38 |
- Did Murph get a beat on him yet? |
00:09:42 |
Can't find anyone who's ever even |
00:09:50 |
The Fairy's going to the bathroom. |
00:09:57 |
And our boy's making a move. Shit. |
00:10:21 |
- Marty, the door's locked. |
00:10:23 |
It's not gonna go down in the men's room. |
00:10:30 |
I got it next. |
00:10:35 |
- What went down in the men's room? |
00:10:37 |
And? |
00:10:38 |
I told him I thought we should get together. |
00:10:40 |
- You didn't? |
00:10:42 |
And? |
00:10:44 |
- I got a date. |
00:10:47 |
It can't be any worse than what's waiting for me |
00:10:52 |
It's gonna be tough. I think I picked up a pigtail. |
00:10:54 |
- A what? |
00:10:57 |
Oh, a pig tail. Cute. |
00:11:02 |
I ran into a nosy cop in the men's room. |
00:11:13 |
You and me need to talk. |
00:11:19 |
- Do I know you? |
00:11:30 |
Listen, I'm sorry, no offence, but I'm not... |
00:11:32 |
I'm not gay. |
00:11:34 |
- I'm a cop. |
00:11:39 |
I've been watching you. |
00:11:40 |
I know what you're into. |
00:11:45 |
You're not Nick Fisher. |
00:11:48 |
I know because Nick |
00:11:51 |
for forcing himself on a 14-year-old cheerleader. |
00:11:54 |
Dade County sent me a picture of Nick Fisher. |
00:11:56 |
And you... are not him. |
00:11:58 |
So... who the fuck are you? |
00:12:06 |
I'm just a guy whose dinner's getting cold. |
00:12:10 |
May I leave now? |
00:12:12 |
- Come here. |
00:12:13 |
Dead bodies in refrigerators. Cops in men's |
00:12:23 |
That is the nicest thing |
00:12:26 |
And The Boss, he could be Kananga. |
00:12:28 |
Kananga? |
00:12:30 |
- No, The Boss is no Kananga. |
00:12:33 |
Ernst Stavro Blofeld. |
00:12:36 |
Which one? Donald Pleasance? |
00:12:40 |
You know your Bond. |
00:12:44 |
Who? |
00:12:45 |
Well, he played Blofeld |
00:12:48 |
Well, you never see Blofeld's face |
00:12:52 |
And that's when the villain is most effective, |
00:13:14 |
So... |
00:13:19 |
See you later. |
00:13:48 |
Ah, that was incredible! |
00:13:54 |
- I just realized something. |
00:13:57 |
- I just made love to you. |
00:14:00 |
And I have no idea who specifically you were |
00:14:05 |
Because earlier when you were telling me |
00:14:09 |
and I was saying that it was the nicest thing |
00:14:14 |
I naturally assumed... |
00:14:15 |
You naturally assumed |
00:14:23 |
Because if you don't - if you weren't talking |
00:14:28 |
well, you have me mistaken for somebody else, |
00:14:34 |
Well, on that we agree. |
00:14:39 |
Same time on three. |
00:14:40 |
- One... |
00:14:42 |
- Three. George Lazenby. |
00:14:44 |
- George Lazenby? |
00:14:46 |
- Yeah, I was kidding. |
00:14:48 |
The only James Bond is... |
00:14:50 |
- Timothy Dalton. |
00:14:55 |
- Scotland forever. |
00:15:31 |
Why are you going? |
00:15:34 |
I'm just going to get us some coffee. |
00:15:37 |
OK. |
00:15:42 |
Hurry back to me. |
00:15:45 |
After Laughter |
00:16:08 |
Hey! Police. |
00:16:10 |
Aw, come on, man. |
00:16:13 |
I already talked to your buddy. |
00:16:24 |
Good morning. I'm Detective Dumbrowski. |
00:16:26 |
Good morning, Detective. |
00:16:29 |
Nope. We just want to have |
00:16:32 |
Is this standard operating procedure |
00:16:36 |
if you look up "quick, friendly word"? |
00:16:37 |
There is no SOP for the box |
00:16:40 |
Oh. |
00:16:46 |
- So what do you want to talk to me about? |
00:16:49 |
- What about me? |
00:16:51 |
- Philosophically speaking? |
00:16:53 |
- Rank, serial number... |
00:16:56 |
You think I'm tall enough? |
00:17:08 |
- What is your name? |
00:17:12 |
K-E-L-E-V-R-A. |
00:17:14 |
- Kelevra. |
00:17:17 |
I don't know what's going on, |
00:17:20 |
but when I figure out what there is to figure out, |
00:17:23 |
I'm not gonna be so nice to you. |
00:17:26 |
Oh, this is nice. Don't do me any favors. |
00:17:30 |
Last chance to come clean. |
00:17:39 |
Take a walk. |
00:17:42 |
I think this is the part |
00:18:58 |
I have to go to work. |
00:19:00 |
Hey. |
00:19:29 |
- Hey, guys, what are you doing here? |
00:19:33 |
I've got at least... Jesus. |
00:19:36 |
The Boss says he wants you to look nice |
00:20:58 |
You're early. |
00:21:03 |
Why don't you come in and fix yourself a drink? |
00:21:19 |
You'll have to excuse the... |
00:21:20 |
I wasn't expecting you for... |
00:21:25 |
You look good. |
00:21:28 |
- You want some wine? |
00:21:30 |
Is something the matter? |
00:21:36 |
Somebody's trying to kill you. |
00:21:40 |
Who? |
00:21:45 |
Me. |
00:22:40 |
- That was close. |
00:24:01 |
Close. |
00:25:26 |
I hired you to do a job. |
00:25:29 |
It wasn't supposed to look like a job. |
00:25:33 |
So you take out the Israelis, |
00:25:40 |
and now the job |
00:25:44 |
beginning to look very much |
00:25:46 |
like a job. |
00:25:57 |
All right. Fuck it. |
00:26:02 |
If the Rabbi wants a war... |
00:26:05 |
...I'll give him a war. |
00:26:15 |
Saul. |
00:26:19 |
- Saul. |
00:26:22 |
Saul, the phone's been... |
00:26:25 |
Oh. |
00:26:27 |
I thought you were Saul. |
00:26:32 |
People have been thinking I'm somebody else. |
00:26:38 |
Your predicament reminds me of a story. |
00:26:40 |
Hitchcock. North By Northwest. |
00:26:43 |
The movie where everybody thinks Cary Grant |
00:26:47 |
but the thing is there is no George Kaplan. |
00:26:51 |
But names, even made-up ones... |
00:26:56 |
...can bring about quite a bit of trouble. |
00:27:00 |
Now... |
00:27:02 |
the woman in the picture with Grant, |
00:27:04 |
- her name was er... |
00:27:06 |
- Oh... you know this movie. |
00:27:09 |
I took my father to see it in 1959. |
00:27:13 |
but boy, did he like Miss Saint. |
00:27:16 |
After the movie he turned to me and he said, |
00:27:19 |
You see, he couldn't pronounce |
00:27:24 |
- Caused quite a bit of confusion. |
00:27:32 |
Is that my money? |
00:27:34 |
This is everything I owe you. |
00:28:10 |
It's the Sabbath. You see, |
00:28:14 |
I know. |
00:28:16 |
Normally Saul turns off the ringer. |
00:28:18 |
Saul! |
00:28:19 |
I tell you, you can't find good help these days. |
00:28:26 |
Saul's dead. |
00:28:31 |
They're all dead. |
00:28:57 |
Oh, I've been in this room before. |
00:29:01 |
Looks the same as it did 20 years ago. |
00:29:05 |
Somehow... |
00:29:08 |
Somehow it seems different. |
00:29:09 |
The way your car seems different |
00:29:14 |
Then again, it's been 20 years |
00:29:19 |
Two decades spent behind three inches |
00:29:22 |
due to a natural fear of high-powered rifles |
00:29:27 |
20 years... |
00:29:31 |
...locked away in my own paranoia, |
00:29:37 |
Only to be delivered to fate by a boy. |
00:29:43 |
Well. Anthony, it looks as though you've won, |
00:29:50 |
If I were wearing a hat, I would take it off. |
00:29:57 |
Should we get on with it, then? |
00:30:05 |
You can keep your hat on, Schlomo. |
00:30:12 |
Looks like we were sold a bill of goods |
00:30:18 |
Nice speech, though. |
00:30:24 |
I wish I was standing for it. |
00:30:37 |
You... you brought this upon our heads. |
00:30:42 |
- Me? |
00:30:48 |
After you murdered my son? |
00:30:52 |
- I had no hand in that. |
00:30:55 |
Just like in '84? |
00:30:58 |
I suppose you had no hand in that either. |
00:31:04 |
Time's up, Rabbi. |
00:31:08 |
Lying to a dead man's |
00:31:14 |
You were getting too big. |
00:31:18 |
See... |
00:31:22 |
...problem when two men are standing in a room |
00:31:24 |
is you can only look at one of them |
00:31:27 |
with their backs turned, |
00:31:33 |
Then they called you The Boss. |
00:31:38 |
It was clear what had to be done. |
00:31:46 |
Try and appreciate how it feels, Schlomo... |
00:31:52 |
...to wake up in the middle of the night |
00:31:56 |
Lying in a pool of your own blood and shit. |
00:32:03 |
The dead eyes of... |
00:32:09 |
...of your wife... staring back at you. |
00:32:15 |
The only thing keeping you from passing out |
00:32:17 |
is the sound of the footsteps of the man |
00:32:22 |
...looking for your son. |
00:32:29 |
I managed to save my son, Schlomo. |
00:32:33 |
And now... |
00:32:36 |
...after all these years... |
00:32:40 |
...in spite of our agreement! |
00:32:43 |
You... you... |
00:32:44 |
fucking backstabbing Philistine. |
00:32:48 |
You managed to take my son away from me. |
00:32:52 |
Well... |
00:32:55 |
...now I've taken your son away from you. |
00:32:58 |
I told you I had nothing to do with... |
00:33:10 |
You haven't heard. |
00:33:12 |
Will I? |
00:33:14 |
Look at my face, Schlomo. Look at my smile. |
00:33:20 |
Your son is dead. |
00:33:25 |
Your son is dead. |
00:33:30 |
I'm gonna kill you. Hm. |
00:33:35 |
Rabbi. |
00:33:37 |
Are you familiar with the Shmoo? |
00:33:52 |
Fisher. |
00:33:56 |
Fisher, listen to me. |
00:34:01 |
I already told you, |
00:34:03 |
I'm not Nick Fisher. |
00:34:11 |
Then who is Nick Fisher? |
00:34:19 |
I think you mean, who was Nick Fisher? |
00:34:23 |
Fisher was the answer to a question. |
00:34:25 |
How do you get to two men |
00:34:35 |
You get them to come to you. |
00:34:46 |
But to do that... I needed a name. |
00:34:49 |
And where do you find names? |
00:34:51 |
In books. |
00:34:58 |
And who has books? |
00:35:07 |
Well, your bookies have books. |
00:35:11 |
He's clean. |
00:35:12 |
Crooked bookies... |
00:35:15 |
- ... who work with big-time crooks. |
00:35:30 |
I was looking for a gambler. |
00:35:34 |
One who was in both books... |
00:35:36 |
... with a lot of red in the minus column. |
00:35:38 |
Got him. |
00:35:40 |
And that's when I found Nick Fisher. |
00:35:42 |
A lowlife that no-one was gonna miss. |
00:35:46 |
1729. |
00:35:48 |
Nick Fisher. |
00:35:50 |
OK. |
00:36:04 |
There was a time. |
00:36:23 |
All that was left to do was make the phone ring. |
00:36:46 |
All I had to do was pull the trigger |
00:36:50 |
who does the jobs that no-one else wants. |
00:36:54 |
I want an outsider brought in. |
00:36:57 |
There's a specialist. |
00:37:02 |
Calls himself Mr. Goodkat. |
00:37:10 |
Fine. |
00:37:14 |
Tell him he can expect me in the morning. |
00:37:21 |
Are you ready? |
00:37:23 |
Yeah. |
00:37:28 |
It's just that one last thing. |
00:37:39 |
Mr. Goodkat. |
00:37:41 |
It's been a long time. |
00:37:47 |
I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Goodkat. |
00:37:53 |
Slim Hopkins, the man who ran my book, |
00:37:59 |
And I guess you've already heard about... |
00:38:03 |
- ... my son. |
00:38:06 |
I need you to sort it out for me. |
00:38:08 |
Who's the mark? |
00:38:10 |
Yitzchok. |
00:38:15 |
Yitzchok, The Rabbi's son? |
00:38:17 |
You remember The Rabbi? |
00:38:19 |
I remember The Rabbi well. |
00:38:21 |
Thing is... |
00:38:23 |
it can't look like a job. |
00:38:26 |
If Yitzchok gets hit, The Rabbi will go to war. |
00:38:31 |
So... I need you to make it look like |
00:38:37 |
Can that be done? |
00:38:39 |
Anything can be done. |
00:38:44 |
Good. How? |
00:38:46 |
Kansas City Shuffle. |
00:38:50 |
I'm not familiar with the term. |
00:38:55 |
I'll need to see Slim's books. |
00:38:57 |
Slim's books were taken when he was hit, |
00:39:07 |
What are you looking for? |
00:39:13 |
This is our guy. Nick - 1729. |
00:39:16 |
1729. |
00:39:19 |
Nick Fisher. |
00:39:20 |
Why him? |
00:39:22 |
A loser. |
00:39:24 |
Pick him up. Bring him here. |
00:39:35 |
Still not talking to each other, huh? |
00:39:38 |
Can't say that I blame you. |
00:39:40 |
- Why are you here? |
00:39:42 |
I was under the impression |
00:39:45 |
Like I said... very big job. |
00:39:48 |
And you thought, as long as you're in town, |
00:39:53 |
and say, "Hello. How about them Yanks?" |
00:39:58 |
No. But something like that. |
00:40:04 |
Only problem is you and I aren't old friends. |
00:40:07 |
And I hate baseball. |
00:40:08 |
And since we're not friends and |
00:40:12 |
It's because we're not friends that I'm here. |
00:40:16 |
Because if we had been friends, |
00:40:20 |
Because that is right at the top of my list |
00:40:24 |
The good news for you is, |
00:40:29 |
You see, it seems to me |
00:40:32 |
than he does to The Boss dead. |
00:40:34 |
And more money means more to me |
00:40:36 |
And you are the guy that sleeps with |
00:40:41 |
I'm listening. |
00:40:43 |
You will pay me double to kill The Boss |
00:40:47 |
- Ohh. |
00:40:52 |
And that will make us friends. |
00:40:55 |
Right, Rabbi? |
00:40:58 |
Hm? |
00:41:04 |
And... since friends do favors for their friends, |
00:41:08 |
Pray tell? What is this favor? |
00:41:11 |
Concerns a matter of debt collection. |
00:41:15 |
Whose? |
00:41:16 |
A flop. From Benny's book. |
00:41:20 |
Who is he? |
00:41:22 |
Just a loser. |
00:41:24 |
You just made a lot of money. |
00:41:29 |
And then I was free |
00:41:47 |
Hm? |
00:41:48 |
Whatever they're paying you... |
00:41:57 |
Oh. |
00:42:00 |
There is nobody. |
00:42:03 |
I did this to you. |
00:42:08 |
- Me. |
00:42:10 |
Me. |
00:42:18 |
Who are you? |
00:42:23 |
Who is he? |
00:42:25 |
Considering he no longer has fingerprints, |
00:42:30 |
What about dental records? |
00:42:31 |
Sure, find the bottom half of the jaw, then all |
00:42:38 |
What a fucking mess. |
00:42:41 |
Hey, Brikowski, it's Marty, you there? |
00:42:44 |
We found two more bodies |
00:42:48 |
All right, I'll be right over. |
00:42:50 |
Did you ever get a hold of The Rabbi so he can |
00:42:55 |
Negative. |
00:42:58 |
Send somebody over. |
00:42:59 |
Copy. |
00:43:03 |
You all right? You look a little shook-up. |
00:43:06 |
No, I'm fine. |
00:43:08 |
All right. |
00:43:33 |
- Yeah. |
00:43:36 |
Hey, Murph, what's up? |
00:43:38 |
Harry Kello came by today. |
00:43:41 |
He retired a few years ago. His wife just died, |
00:43:45 |
talks shop, tells stories to the rooks. |
00:43:47 |
Starts every sentence with, "The way |
00:43:51 |
- Yeah. Yeah, what about him? |
00:43:54 |
Guy says he can't complain, |
00:43:57 |
His dead wife, the leg he got shot in, |
00:44:01 |
but then he stops when he sees the picture |
00:44:05 |
Just stares at it. |
00:44:09 |
Thing is, he ain't looking at the picture, |
00:44:11 |
I've got it written at the bottom. |
00:44:35 |
I have that same phone. |
00:44:50 |
About an hour later the phone rings, it's Harry, |
00:44:54 |
going on and on about a horse race back in '79. |
00:44:59 |
Aqueduct. |
00:45:02 |
Seven horse, tenth race - ring a bell? |
00:45:12 |
It was a drug store handicap. |
00:45:15 |
Big wind-up, around the time The Boss, |
00:45:19 |
before people started |
00:45:22 |
Anyway, he goes on about this local legend, |
00:45:27 |
His name was Max. |
00:45:31 |
Max placed a bet with a bookie named Roth. |
00:45:35 |
Roth laid the bet off. |
00:45:38 |
On you. |
00:45:49 |
And you. |
00:45:57 |
But when The Rabbi and The Boss |
00:46:00 |
they are the opposite of happy. |
00:46:02 |
Word comes down an example is to be made. |
00:46:05 |
Aargh! |
00:46:06 |
These guys kill everyone! |
00:46:09 |
And I mean everyone. |
00:46:11 |
Max, his wife, his kid, Roth... |
00:46:14 |
even the goddamned horse died. |
00:46:16 |
These guys went to town with a tomahawk. |
00:46:22 |
They had to bring in a specialist to do the kid |
00:46:44 |
What have you done with my son? |
00:47:02 |
You? |
00:47:04 |
No. |
00:47:06 |
You're dead. |
00:47:10 |
You're dead! |
00:47:19 |
So Harry's going on about how they had to |
00:47:23 |
but I ain't seeing the connection, |
00:47:28 |
He says. "The horse's name." |
00:47:30 |
I say, "What about the horse's name?" |
00:47:32 |
He says the horse's name was |
00:47:36 |
- What is your name? |
00:47:48 |
Do you remember this part? |
00:48:00 |
Please! I have a family. |
00:48:04 |
Not any more, you don't. |
00:48:06 |
Henry! |
00:48:09 |
You fucking bastards! |
00:48:13 |
You fucking bastards! |
00:48:35 |
The two of you killed everything I ever loved. |
00:48:44 |
Fuck you both. |
00:49:10 |
Now, there is no such person as Slevin Kelevra, |
00:49:16 |
Which means the kid was using a pseudonym. |
00:49:18 |
Which is interesting, |
00:49:21 |
and keeping company |
00:49:24 |
seeing as they had some involvement |
00:49:27 |
I thought to myself, maybe it means something. |
00:49:29 |
Then again, maybe it's just a coincidence, |
00:49:34 |
I guess none of this really matters |
00:49:43 |
Ah, one more thing, |
00:49:47 |
Jewish fella, funny little guy, talks a lot. |
00:49:51 |
Anyway, in case you're interested, |
00:49:56 |
He says it means... |
00:49:58 |
Bad dog. |
00:50:07 |
20 years ago, he used to be my bookie. |
00:50:10 |
I used to sign my pay cheques over to him. |
00:50:28 |
Brikowski? You there? |
00:52:25 |
Your girl made me. |
00:52:28 |
She took my picture. |
00:52:31 |
She's got to go in the ground. |
00:52:36 |
OK. |
00:52:58 |
I have something I have to tell you. |
00:53:03 |
He told me that we needed to kill you. |
00:53:10 |
You're gonna have to trust me. |
00:53:24 |
Shit! |
00:53:29 |
He's going to shoot you here. |
00:54:29 |
I didn't think you'd understand. |
00:54:48 |
I understood. |
00:54:55 |
How did you find out about us? |
00:54:57 |
I'm a world-class assassin, fuckhead. |
00:54:59 |
How do you think I found out? |
00:55:05 |
I thought you might want this. |
00:55:47 |
I want to go home. |
00:55:49 |
Neither of us is going home for a long time, kid. |
00:55:55 |
My name is Goodkat. |
00:55:58 |
You can call me Mr. Goodkat. |
00:56:00 |
It's 20 minutes past four o'clock |
