00:06:29 Of course.
00:06:44 I'm sorry, Mr. Johnson,
00:06:48 Impossible.
00:06:50 Do you have another form

00:08:44 Porter.
00:08:46 You're not dead.
00:08:51 What are you going to do?
00:10:01 Not now.
00:10:07 You're cleaning up.
00:12:37 Val still wants to talk to you.
00:12:42 Sorry, babe.
00:12:45 Shall I tell him
00:12:49 No, I'll talk to him.
00:12:58 Yep, same as always. You?
00:13:01 Yeah, good, good.

00:13:28 How much in the case?
00:13:30 Anywhere between 340 and half a mill.
00:13:38 How much do you need?
00:13:41 We split it 40-40.
00:13:43 I mean, how much do you need
00:13:51 Into the syndicate.
00:13:53 How much?
00:13:55 - The Outfit?

00:14:00 Hi, sweetie.
00:14:03 130 grand.
00:14:13 The Chows won't go to the cops.
00:14:18 They don't feel pain.
00:14:21 You notice anything about those guys?
00:14:23 They look nasty.
00:14:27 - Did I miss something?
00:14:33 We'll hit them on Friday.

00:16:50 Total.
00:16:53 Total?
00:16:58 That's 70 grand?
00:17:02 Is for me.
00:17:06 I'm up short. Sixty short.
00:17:10 Should have hit them Tuesday.
00:17:13 Fuck!
00:17:15 We got away clean.
00:17:18 And got something to show for it.
00:17:20 Be grateful for what you get,
00:17:27 Yeah, rule number one.
00:17:39 What?
00:17:47 Everything's cool.
00:17:50 Just not enough! All right?
00:17:52 Never is, Val.
00:17:55 Baby, just put the money
00:18:09 I can't fucking believe it.
00:18:15 This is funny.
00:18:16 This will kill you.
00:18:20 It's always 140.
00:18:28 Someone ought to give me a Ph.D.
00:18:36 Jesus! Wait till I'm out
00:18:51 Everything's cool, baby.
00:19:01 You were great.
00:19:06 Okay, keep the gun.
00:19:08 That's it. Everything's cool.
00:19:13 Come on.
00:19:17 There we go.
00:19:30 I bet you got a lot of questions
00:19:39 Lynn did not understand.
00:19:43 I don't know.
00:19:44 Wives get funny
00:19:51 What?
00:19:53 I didn't get that.
00:19:56 You got it.
00:20:30 Come on, Miss Porter.
00:20:55 Is Miss Porter here?
00:20:57 Mrs. Porter.
00:21:02 Yeah, whatever.
00:21:07 Motherfucker!
00:21:13 Get up. Turn around.
00:21:15 Come on.
00:21:21 What have we got here?
00:21:25 How much in here?
00:21:28 Two grand.
00:21:29 - What's in here?
00:21:31 What do you think it is?
00:21:42 Shit. Oh, shit.
00:21:46 Val Resnick.
00:21:49 Where is he?
00:21:51 You want to know where he is?
00:21:54 He's right here.
00:21:55 Look. Fuck you.
00:21:58 Wrong answer.
00:22:01 God! You motherfucker!
00:22:04 - Fuck!
00:22:08 I never heard of him, man.
00:22:10 Where'd you get the shit?
00:22:13 Come on.
00:22:21 What do you think I'll do?
00:22:25 Oh, come on. Okay, okay.
00:22:29 Stegman, man.
00:22:33 Where is he?
00:22:36 South End Taxi.
00:22:39 Farragut Road, man.
00:22:44 Thanks.
00:22:46 You're welcome.
00:23:11 I'm looking for Arthur Stegman.
00:23:15 He ain't here.
00:23:18 No, you can't. Where is he?
00:23:21 I don't know.
00:23:26 Take a guess.
00:23:28 What?
00:23:31 Take a guess about where he is.
00:23:44 Is he at home?
00:23:49 Go fuck yourself.
00:23:55 Here we go.
00:23:56 - This one's mine.
00:23:58 Wait, that was mine.
00:24:08 There's somebody here to see you.
00:24:13 I'm looking for Stegman.
00:24:21 Who are you?
00:24:25 I'm Porter.
00:24:27 Porter, that looks like assault to me.
00:24:33 He looks like he likes
00:24:41 Fuck! Not in here.
00:24:42 Jesus! He wants to talk.
00:24:45 Am I right? Did I call it?
00:24:51 Are you Stegman?
00:24:54 Maybe. What do you want?
00:24:59 Your boy didn't make his delivery.
00:25:05 Why don't we talk outside?
00:25:08 You're a dealer?
00:25:10 Just forget about it, all right?
00:25:13 Don't touch my money either.
00:25:16 This is heroin?
00:25:19 This is heroin.
00:25:21 Don't worry about it.
00:25:25 Let's talk.
00:25:27 What are you looking at?
00:25:30 And you're bleeding
00:25:33 Come on!
00:25:40 Steggie's been holding out on us.
00:25:44 I'll check it out.
00:25:46 Val Resnick.
00:25:50 - What about him?
00:25:52 Even if I knew,
00:25:56 - Where'd you meet up with my boy?
00:25:59 Is he dead?
00:26:00 No, but she is.
00:26:04 So? What do you care?
00:26:07 I'm her husband.
00:26:10 You won't fucking kill me?
00:26:16 Not in front of these kids.
00:26:19 Where is he?
00:26:25 I don't know!
00:26:27 That's the truth.
00:26:29 It got delivered to me last night.
00:26:35 Why all the trouble?
00:26:38 He's afraid of the girl.
00:26:41 ...of Mrs. Porter.
00:26:43 I mean, that's how it looks to me.
00:26:54 I don't know nothing.
00:26:56 I know Val from the old days.
00:26:59 Three months ago he asks me
00:27:01 I make an extra grand a month.
00:27:05 Now you threaten to kill me?
00:27:10 He's in the city.
00:27:13 How do you know that?
00:27:16 - He said so.
00:27:18 When he came. Said he squared
00:27:22 Said he was back
00:27:25 He was very excited.
00:27:27 You tell him that Porter is back too.
00:27:30 And he wants his money.
00:27:33 I'll come back for you
00:27:39 When would I tell him this?
00:28:03 Talk to me.
00:28:04 There's a young lady to see you.
00:28:08 She's got two very bad habits.
00:28:10 Right now I'm only interested
00:28:14 Send her up.
00:28:19 Apartment 718, ma'am.
00:28:42 Send her up.
00:28:43 It's Haskell.
00:28:47 Don't be sorry.
00:28:49 I got a call from a cab guy
00:28:53 - What is it?
00:28:55 Shit. Hold on a second.
00:29:06 On your knees, bitch.
00:29:10 I'm on the phone, Pearl.
00:29:16 It's "Mistress Pearl."
00:29:19 I'm on the fucking phone!
00:29:25 Make it quick.
00:29:27 This guy Stegman calls.
00:29:29 He sounded all nervous,
00:29:34 He had to talk to you.
00:29:38 - What was it about?
00:29:43 He said some guy wanted you.
00:29:48 I thought you ought to know.
00:29:50 You did right.
00:29:53 Who, Stegman?
00:29:55 No, President Nixon.
00:29:58 Tell him Varrick's, by the bridge.
00:30:01 Make it...
00:30:04 Make it 20 minutes.
00:30:07 I'm working here!
00:30:16 Can't you see I'm working here?
00:30:22 Put it on my tab.
00:30:24 I'm looking for a girl.
00:30:26 She goes by the name of Rosie.
00:30:33 She worked by telephone,
00:30:37 Probably connected
00:30:39 Out of my league.
00:30:45 Maybe you know somebody who would.
00:30:53 - Why you looking for her?
00:30:56 I got cancer.
00:31:05 You two look close.
00:31:10 Got a cigarette?
00:31:17 Your sister sounds expensive.
00:31:20 Try Michael,
00:31:24 That wasn't the name
00:31:28 The only one I got.
00:31:58 I tried to call you, but you
00:32:03 I never gave you my original number.
00:32:07 What did this guy look like?
00:32:10 He had dark hair, blue eyes.
00:32:15 If Lynn's dead, he did us a favor.
00:32:18 I know, except I'm out
00:32:21 We can work something out.
00:32:24 Did you get a name?
00:32:26 He said he was Porter.
00:32:31 He said he was there for Porter?
00:32:34 No, he said he was Porter.
00:32:42 I wouldn't want that guy
00:32:45 - I know how you must feel.
00:32:50 I've got friends.
00:32:53 I pick up a phone
00:32:56 And he stays dead!
00:32:58 Try to keep it down.
00:33:01 It's okay.
00:33:04 What'd he say?
00:33:05 He said you owed him money.
00:33:08 Nothing else?
00:33:10 Nothing. Why?
00:33:13 None of your business.
00:33:16 I just got the feeling
00:33:20 Oh, Christ!
00:33:22 Porter.
00:33:30 What'd you tell him?
00:33:32 Nothing!
00:33:33 - What could I tell?
00:33:37 He had it with him!
00:33:41 Nothing else?
00:33:42 I don't know nothing else!
00:33:44 You gave him something. A name.
00:33:49 I swear on my mother...
00:33:52 Fuck your mother!
00:33:54 - That's not nice. Take it easy.
00:33:58 Val, don't.
00:33:59 Not again. Don't do that, man.
00:34:04 Come on. Not again.
00:34:06 Don't.
00:34:07 - Forget it.
00:34:10 We're just leaving.
00:34:13 You know what?
00:34:16 You see me reaching for my wallet?
00:34:23 Sorry. He just got a promotion,
00:34:29 Is there a Michael here?
00:34:31 That's him over yonder.
00:34:37 You're the man to see
00:34:40 I'm looking for a girl named Rosie.
00:34:43 Prostitution is illegal
00:34:51 Usually these matters are conducted
00:34:59 Be discreet now.
00:35:06 What was her name?
00:35:07 Rosie.
00:35:08 - Who's looking for her?
00:35:21 Rosie?
00:35:22 Give me the phone.
00:35:26 Take care of that.
00:35:30 Who the hell is this?
00:35:32 Porter.
00:35:33 Try again, honey.
00:35:36 I used to drive for you.
00:35:41 Porter?
00:35:56 Why pour salt on old wounds?
00:36:00 I didn 't need to.
00:36:04 I guess I had a soft spot for her.
00:36:31 Come in.
00:36:34 You look pretty good
00:36:42 How'd you hear about it?
00:36:45 People were talking.
00:36:47 Plus I heard your wife
00:36:51 She's dead.
00:36:54 I'm sorry, Porter.
00:36:57 Why?
00:37:00 Jesus. Surly Porter.
00:37:08 This doesn't look like you.
00:37:11 Yeah, well, people change.
00:37:14 Stay.
00:37:16 It's okay.
00:37:19 Meet the nastiest dog
00:37:25 What's his name?
00:37:27 Porter.
00:37:29 He took your job after you left.
00:37:32 He's just as tough,
00:37:44 I need a favor.
00:37:46 A favor?
00:37:48 Maybe you're not the same as ever.
00:37:54 I'm looking for a syndicate boy.
00:37:58 It's the "Outfit."
00:37:59 - We don't say syndicate anymore.
00:38:02 Don't get touchy.
00:38:07 Val Resnick.
00:38:11 That son of a bitch.
00:38:15 You know him?
00:38:17 I met up with him once
00:38:21 He can't use Star's service.
00:38:25 He almost killed one.
00:38:27 You?
00:38:33 Does it matter?
00:38:41 Would you know where he might be?
00:38:46 I suppose he's at the hotel.
00:38:49 - Which one?
00:38:53 The address?
00:38:57 We're friends, right?
00:38:59 I mean, we used to be.
00:39:04 The Outfit wouldn't like me
00:39:08 How strong are you?
00:39:10 Personally, I think you are
00:39:14 But I wonder if it's enough.
00:39:16 For what?
00:39:18 You want this guy
00:39:22 I'm going to kill him.
00:39:27 That's something he won't like.
00:39:32 What if they grab you and ask you
00:39:36 You know I wouldn't turn you in.
00:39:39 - I wouldn't talk.
00:39:44 I'll say it was
00:39:51 The Oakwood Arms, Union and 17th.
00:40:26 Hi, Val.
00:40:29 Where's my money?
00:40:37 I took your gun.
00:40:39 It's back here.
00:40:42 Keep your mouth shut
00:40:48 My 70 grand. I want it.
00:40:52 I don't have it right now.
00:40:55 - Where is it?
00:41:00 I gave it all to them.
00:41:04 Tell them you gave them money that
00:41:09 I can't do that.
00:41:14 You'll kill me
00:41:18 All right, I'll get the money.
00:41:20 Just give me a few days.
00:41:25 Noon. Tomorrow.
00:41:27 Say it.
00:41:28 All right.
00:41:30 This may sound crazy,
00:41:34 I did what I had to do.
00:41:37 I appreciate that, you...
00:41:39 No, no! Don't.
00:41:42 Please.
00:41:44 Allow me.
00:41:53 Jesus!
00:42:03 You bitch!
00:42:07 Let her work.
00:42:22 Me love you, baby.
00:42:26 Me love you long time.
00:42:35 No, no, wait.
00:42:43 Tomorrow.
00:42:44 Noon.
00:42:46 You and the money be at
00:42:56 Where'd you get this?
00:42:59 Some hooker had it.
00:43:01 I swiped it in case I could use it.
00:43:04 Did you hurt her?
00:43:07 The hooker,
00:43:09 What does that have to do
00:43:20 I've got a few minutes.
00:43:23 So go boil an egg.
00:43:32 Phillip says you have a problem
00:43:37 Yes, sir.
00:43:39 Is it your problem...
00:43:40 ...who breached our security
00:43:44 He breaks into my apartment...
00:43:46 There's an old expression
00:43:50 "Do not shit where you eat."
00:43:54 Or "live."
00:43:56 "Do not shit where you live."
00:43:58 I like that better.
00:44:00 I'm sorry, Mr. Carter.
00:44:01 There are three ways
00:44:04 One: We help you.
00:44:10 Three: We have you replaced.
00:44:17 We have an investment in you, Resnick,
00:44:23 So assisting you would be...
00:44:25 ...in a way, protecting our investment.
00:44:29 That is good business policy.
00:44:32 Yes, sir, Mr. Carter.
00:44:34 Thank you.
00:44:40 According to Phillip,
00:44:45 He's alone and he's
00:44:49 Yes, sir. He does payroll jobs,
00:44:54 - What's his name?
00:44:58 What's his first name?
00:45:05 I don't know. He never called
00:45:21 Where did you get the $130,000?
00:45:29 That's why this man is in town?
00:45:32 The $130,000 you paid us back.
00:45:35 Yes, sir.
00:45:38 We never asked you where you got it.
00:45:43 Now it appears
00:45:50 Here's his file, Mr. Carter.
00:45:59 Do you understand your value
00:46:06 You're a sadist, you lack compunction.
00:46:11 But now, an area of your personal life
00:46:19 A man in our organization needs
00:46:25 Were you to handle this problem
00:46:30 ...there would be no doubt...
00:46:34 ...you're the man we want.
00:46:36 I want to.
00:46:37 I want to handle it myself.
00:46:40 Great.
00:46:42 Until it is handled, I want you
00:46:48 I don't have a place...
00:46:50 No more unpleasantness at the hotel.
00:46:55 Yes, sir.
00:47:05 It might be easier
00:47:11 I thought about that.
00:47:14 I'm not worried about Resnick.
00:47:16 He wouldn't last two minutes
00:47:20 It's that other mutt
00:47:22 - What's his name?
00:47:26 Takes a lot of moxie to walk in
00:47:32 Either that or he's shit nuts.
00:47:35 Frankly, I don't understand it
00:47:39 It was $70,000, his share.
00:47:42 That's even worse.
00:47:44 I don't want
00:47:48 He'll think I'm getting soft.
00:47:50 His principle has always been:
00:47:52 "If you don't understand it,
00:47:56 A stitch in time, so to speak.
00:48:01 Stitch this mutt up, Phil.
00:48:08 Any Polaroids or trophies?
00:48:10 No, not this time.
00:48:15 They cut me loose, Pearl.
00:48:19 Hold on one second.
00:48:21 Shut up!
00:48:35 Yes?
00:48:37 Did your friends make it to town?
00:48:40 Last night, baby.
00:48:42 Did you tell them
00:48:45 I did.
00:48:47 And they want retribution.
00:48:49 All right. Here's what we do.
00:49:53 Yeah, that's Porter.
00:49:58 Shit.
00:50:25 Shit!
00:50:31 Next time, Porter.
00:50:36 Porter's made some new friends.
00:50:59 - Easy, mister.
00:51:01 - Who were they?
00:51:05 It's you guys.
00:51:07 Stegman says you got
00:51:10 240 grand, to be exact.
00:51:13 Seventy.
00:51:16 Come on, man, get off of me!
00:51:18 What do you take us for?
00:51:22 Nobody'd do this shit for 70 grand.
00:51:24 You look like a whole bunch
00:51:27 We found a dead girl full of heroin.
00:51:29 There were signs of a struggle.
00:51:33 We got a witness.
00:51:36 Remember him?
00:51:38 Don't worry.
00:51:41 Room to operate,
00:51:44 All you got to do is get the money.
00:51:47 We can't help you, though.
00:51:49 - It would be against the law.
00:51:54 - It's my money.
00:51:59 It's our money.
00:52:00 You be a good boy, we give you a piece.
00:52:04 It'll be easy, Porter.
00:52:06 You got it?
00:52:08 - He's got it.
00:52:11 - We'll be in touch.
00:52:14 What a dope!
00:52:17 Fuck.
00:52:18 Crooked cops.
00:52:20 Do they come any other way?
00:52:23 If I'd been just a little dumber,
00:53:00 Jesus Christ,
00:53:04 - It's going to sting.
00:53:08 You hold it there.
00:53:23 I'll do it.
00:53:30 Tell me something, Porter.
00:53:35 When did you decide to leave?
00:53:40 No.
00:53:43 The next day,
00:53:51 You could've asked me to quit.
00:53:58 You could've asked me
00:54:15 Hubba, hubba, hubba.
00:54:25 Thanks.
00:54:27 Does it fit?
00:54:29 Like it was made for me.
00:54:34 It'll look great in your casket.
00:54:47 You know what I think?
00:54:49 I think that all those stories
00:54:54 You're too thickheaded to admit it.
00:55:26 God, I missed you.
00:55:28 I miss you.
00:55:38 Don't, don't, don't...
00:55:41 I can't. I got...
00:55:46 ...stuff to do.
00:56:40 Where is he?
00:56:45 Porter. Where is he?
00:56:48 He's in the bedroom.
00:57:05 Is he hurt bad?
00:57:08 The doctor should be here any minute.
00:57:11 That's bullshit.
00:57:29 Here I come, pally.
00:57:33 Goddamn!
00:57:37 Goddamn!
00:57:45 Get in here!
00:57:53 Where is he?
00:57:55 He's gone, he's gone.
00:57:58 Gone?
00:58:03 I know you.
00:58:09 How do you know him?
00:58:12 He used to drive me.
00:58:18 I'm driving you now, honey.
00:58:22 You know what you are?
00:58:24 Educate me.
00:58:25 An ugly pig who beats up women...
00:58:28 ...who can't get it up because
00:58:32 Is that right?
00:58:33 Is that right?
00:58:35 Then you must be the lucky girl.
00:58:40 Hubba, hubba, hubba!
00:58:46 I am going to fuck you
00:59:18 I forgot my cigarettes.
00:59:31 All right, Val.
00:59:33 This Outfit, or whatever you call it,
00:59:38 Who?
00:59:40 They'll kill me.
00:59:42 What do you think I'll do?
00:59:47 Names. Come on.
00:59:49 Fairfax and Carter.
00:59:54 Where do I find them?
00:59:57 Fairfax isn't in town.
00:59:59 What about Carter?
01:00:03 Porter, it won't do you any good.
01:00:06 They're going to...
01:00:10 Frederick Carter Investments.
01:00:16 Thanks.
01:00:20 All right!
01:00:22 All right!
01:00:26 You're fucking nuts going up
01:00:31 But I'm going to help you out.
01:00:34 Here. Keep talking.
01:00:38 Thanks.
01:00:41 I can get you in.
01:00:45 How many guys?
01:00:47 It's tighter than hell.
01:00:49 Only one guy on the outside.
01:00:56 You are crazy!
01:00:58 You're a crazy son of a bitch!
01:01:01 That's why I love you.
01:01:03 You got a light?
01:01:06 You got a light?
01:01:13 Then what good are you?
01:01:14 Check my pocket!
01:01:44 Is your name on the lease?
01:01:50 The Outfit pays for everything.
01:01:54 Gather up everything you need.
01:02:24 It's okay.
01:02:26 It's okay, puppy.
01:02:28 He'll live. How are you?
01:02:37 Yeah, I know.
01:02:39 It's not much, but you'll be safe.
01:02:42 Nobody knows I'm here.
01:03:00 What?
01:03:03 Nobody has this number.
01:03:49 Somebody does know I'm here.
01:03:56 He's probably fucking her.
01:03:58 - He's taking long enough.
01:04:03 You think so?
01:04:06 Give it a minute.
01:04:34 Okay, let's give him another bell.
01:04:46 Shit.
01:04:48 He's behind us.
01:05:23 It's notjust anybody that gets...
01:05:26 ...a hit put on him by a firm
01:05:29 I was moving up in the world.
01:05:33 Maybe it was time
01:05:36 Carter wouldn 't be expecting that.
01:05:39 And who knows?
01:06:13 I told you he'd show.
01:06:14 Give me my goddamn money, please.
01:06:19 - Give me my money.
01:06:21 Yeah, come on.
01:06:24 Thank you very much.
01:06:28 What you up to, buddy?
01:06:30 Well, our money's in there.
01:06:33 Still interested?
01:06:35 Not in the dough,
01:06:41 What's he doing here?
01:06:44 It's a ride-along, Porter.
01:06:46 Your piece of the pie
01:06:49 But don't worry,
01:06:54 What are you waiting for?
01:06:56 Go get our money.
01:07:00 Do me a favor?
01:07:02 We're here to help.
01:07:04 They'll frisk me when I go in.
01:07:11 Just for a little while.
01:07:15 Sure, Porter.
01:07:22 Nice balance.
01:07:27 Douche bag.
01:07:40 Can I help you?
01:07:43 - I want to see Mr. Carter.
01:07:46 I'm the guy that whacked Val Resnick.
01:07:49 I'm sorry, I don't...
01:07:52 Didn't copy. Repeat.
01:07:58 Right.
01:08:00 Mr. Carter will see you.
01:08:29 Bravo. Sit down.
01:08:37 My compliments.
01:08:40 They lull too easy.
01:08:51 You want something from me.
01:08:54 Val Resnick gave you $130,000.
01:08:58 He paid us.
01:09:00 $70,000 of it is mine.
01:09:05 I'm sorry, but I seem to have
01:09:09 Porter.
01:09:10 Porter. Right.
01:09:12 I won't forget it again.
01:09:15 The Outfit is not unreasonable.
01:09:18 But no corporation would agree
01:09:22 Will Fairfax give me my money?
01:09:27 Resnick told you quite a bit.
01:09:31 We're not authorized
01:09:34 Who is?
01:09:36 A committee would, in this case.
01:09:39 You go high enough, you always come
01:09:55 Mr. Bronson,
01:09:58 Put him through.
01:10:01 Go ahead, sir.
01:10:02 Carter, how's business?
01:10:04 - Good till now.
01:10:06 Hang on, Carter.
01:10:09 Look in that green box, Johnny.
01:10:25 Are you kidding me?
01:10:28 Is it the convertible?
01:10:29 You thought I forgot.
01:10:34 Happy birthday, son.
01:10:35 This car? And Nick's got us ringside
01:10:40 It'll be a good one.
01:10:41 My money's on Rankin.
01:10:43 No, Hicks is favored.
01:10:45 - That's got nothing to do with it.
01:10:50 Thanks.
01:10:51 Happy birthday.
01:10:53 - Drive safe.
01:10:57 Sorry. What is it?
01:10:59 I have a problem. There's a man
01:11:04 ...who says he'll kill me
01:11:07 ...$130,000 that one of our guys
01:11:11 It's 70. How much is
01:11:15 What do you mean?
01:11:16 Either I get my money
01:11:19 Are you threatening me?
01:11:21 I'm not threatening you.
01:11:25 An audacious man. Who are you?
01:11:31 My money, yes or no?
01:11:33 No.
01:11:39 Carter?
01:11:47 What's going on there?
01:11:49 You just don't get it,
01:11:54 Carter, talk to me.
01:11:59 Call Fairfax and tell him
01:12:02 And he's next. After that,
01:12:07 Are you out of your mind?
01:12:09 You just dug your own grave.
01:12:20 - I don't see any cash.
01:12:23 I have to go and see another guy.
01:12:26 Last one.
01:12:27 Then we got a dead woman and assault
01:12:31 That means more paperwork.
01:12:35 Damn shame, Porter.
01:12:37 But don't let the bastards
01:12:40 That's right. Don't give up.
01:12:46 Can I have my piece?
01:12:58 Nice roscoe.
01:13:00 Heavy enough to be a nutcracker.
01:13:02 We'll be in touch, Rocky.
01:13:06 Keep up the good work.
01:13:10 Nobody likes a monkey on their back.
01:13:15 And they were cramping my style.
01:13:17 I was going to
01:13:58 Where have you been?
01:13:59 I was taking care of business.
01:14:04 They won't stop until they kill us,
01:14:10 No.
01:14:16 I'm sorry.
01:14:19 I'm sorry I got you involved.
01:14:24 So why did you?
01:14:28 You're a clever guy.
01:14:34 So why did you?
01:14:38 Yeah, you're right.
01:14:42 When I came back,
01:14:49 No life. No hope.
01:14:54 You were the only good thing
01:15:00 I couldn't stay away.
01:15:04 I had to see you to make sure
01:15:10 So why don't we get out of here?
01:15:13 - We can't.
01:15:15 They won't stop until they bury us.
01:15:21 So?
01:15:23 So we bury them first.
01:16:11 I should have quit.
01:16:20 I should have driven you
01:17:14 That's me!
01:17:31 Happy birthday, Johnny.
01:17:38 - You are the man!
01:17:49 I'm your birthday present.
01:17:52 - Who's that?
01:17:55 We didn't do it.
01:17:58 Dude, she's so hot.
01:18:00 Oh, man, she's so fine.
01:18:03 Look at this guy!
01:18:06 Boy, you are cute, aren't you?
01:18:11 You must have some pretty
01:18:15 Wealthy too, because I'm not cheap.
01:18:22 Don't wait up, boys.
01:18:25 I promise he won't be home
01:18:31 See you!
01:18:34 Damn!
01:18:48 That's a good boy.
01:18:52 Yeah, right there.
01:19:06 Relax.
01:19:08 Who's the professional here?
01:19:11 So go with it.
01:19:13 I promise you won't regret it.
01:19:17 There, baby.
01:19:34 Relax, kid.
01:19:40 Get hurt?
01:19:59 Glad to have you back, Mr. Fairfax.
01:20:02 I wish I was glad. I was swimming
01:20:08 Easy! It's genuine alligator.
01:20:12 Sorry, Mr. Fairfax.
01:20:16 How's it going, Charlie?
01:20:19 Porter and Fairfax.
01:20:28 Between us and our neighborhood cops,
01:20:35 Walter, wake up.
01:20:41 Wake up!
01:20:43 Keep those bags up, boys.
01:20:45 Come on.
01:20:47 Who are you?
01:20:50 I'm the reason you're home early.
01:20:54 You're Porter?
01:20:56 That's it. Keep them up
01:21:04 What will you have me do?
01:21:10 I want you to do me a favor.
01:21:13 See what we can do
01:21:18 He let Carter die.
01:21:21 That poor bastard's
01:21:25 He'd probably let me die too.
01:21:27 With Carter,
01:21:31 Try him. He might be more
01:21:37 All right.
01:21:39 You two are fired.
01:21:46 Well, it's like this.
01:21:48 I'm in my living room.
01:21:51 ...who says that
01:21:57 Of course.
01:21:59 He wants to talk to you.
01:22:01 Put on the speaker.
01:22:07 - This is Porter.
01:22:10 You've proven to be a pain
01:22:15 To get rid of you,
01:22:19 It's not a hund...
01:22:23 - What the hell are you doing?
01:22:26 It's all right. He's just
01:22:29 ...and shooting holes in my suits.
01:22:32 That's mean, man!
01:22:34 You aren't listening.
01:22:37 No, you listen.
01:22:38 You'll get your money,
01:22:42 You let me worry about that.
01:22:44 I want you to deliver
01:22:48 You're one hell of an optimist.
01:22:50 What makes you think
01:22:54 If you don't,
01:22:58 He didn 't come home last night.
01:23:01 He's good-looking,
01:23:04 I told him so.
01:23:06 Bullshit. You haven't got him.
01:23:09 - You're not that stupid.
01:23:13 I had to steal my first one.
01:23:16 Nice inscription on the key chain.
01:23:19 A little sappy.
01:23:21 You're dead.
01:23:25 You hear me?
01:23:27 You're a dead man.
01:23:29 That's Johnny, unless you
01:23:34 Is that a yes?
01:23:37 What? Cat got your crotch?
01:23:40 Some decisions are hard.
01:23:43 Where?
01:23:45 I'll let you know.
01:23:47 I'll be in touch.
01:23:55 You just signed your
01:23:58 I don't get that. What is it?
01:24:01 The principle?
01:24:05 Stop it, I'm getting misty.
01:24:10 Seventy?
01:24:13 Only 70,000?
01:24:16 My suits are worth more than that!
01:24:22 Listen to this:
01:24:26 Icemaker. Camper canvas.
01:24:30 Vacuum-flush head.
01:24:36 He ain't going to have it.
01:24:38 You want to bet?
01:24:40 No, I don't want to bet.
01:24:45 140 ain't getting my damn boat.
01:24:48 He better come down with something.
01:24:52 Hicks. Leary.
01:24:54 We're Holland and Van Owen.
01:25:00 Back off.
01:25:04 Step out of the car.
01:25:06 What for?
01:25:07 Step out of the car, detectives.
01:25:23 What the hell's going on?
01:25:25 I don't know.
01:25:27 Is this your badge?
01:25:29 The one you reported missing?
01:25:33 Where'd you find it?
01:25:35 Where did you lose it?
01:25:41 Does this belong to you?
01:25:48 It's Porter. Follow him.
01:25:51 I got that motherfucker.
01:26:14 Get in.
01:26:22 Close the door.
01:26:27 Set the roscoe on the floor.
01:26:32 Slow!
01:26:37 I'm going to turn you in
01:26:42 Maybe they'll ask me to join,
01:26:47 Medical. Dental.
01:26:50 I'm going to walk you right in.
01:26:52 Porter on the hoof.
01:26:56 Unless you get rambunctious.
01:27:04 Are you going to kill me?
01:27:14 Let him go!
01:27:17 Now.
01:27:24 Hubba, hubba, hubba.
01:28:56 Who are you?
01:28:58 Fat boy!
01:29:00 Yeah, I'm talking to you.
01:29:31 Stop it. Stop it.
01:29:34 I hate this. I hate it!
01:29:40 Look at this stinking place!
01:29:45 Tell us where he is
01:29:48 Come on.
01:29:59 Too late now.
01:30:04 He doesn't want to say anything.
01:30:07 He just wants to get beat up,
01:30:15 Here it is.
01:30:17 130,000.
01:30:23 That's as close as
01:30:25 I'll make you a deal.
01:30:28 Tell me where John is,
01:30:31 You won't have to find out
01:30:38 But if there's even a bruise on him,
01:30:44 I'll give you a blood transfusion
01:30:52 Where is he?
01:31:25 I'm waiting.
01:31:32 This piggy went to the market.
01:31:48 I'm listening.
01:32:01 This piggy stayed home.
01:32:07 It's looking like roast beef.
01:32:13 Eight to go.
01:32:15 Then it's your knees.
01:32:17 You can guess where we go from there.
01:32:20 Where is he?
01:32:34 Twenty-four...
01:32:36 Twenty-four Fielding.
01:32:40 Apartment 11.
01:32:45 You'll understand
01:32:50 Put him in the trunk.
01:32:54 Let's go, tough guy.
01:33:24 You two watch the front.
01:33:38 Fuck! Come on, Porter.
01:33:48 Hey, give me a light.
01:35:10 - What the hell's going on?
01:35:40 Help me.
01:35:44 Get out!
01:36:27 Come on, Porter.
01:36:31 Get back here!
01:36:32 You bitch!
01:36:34 Come on, Porter.
01:36:36 What took you so long?
01:36:40 Come on, Porter.
01:36:45 Get in.
01:36:46 Good boy.
01:36:52 What happened?
01:36:54 I got hammered.
01:36:56 You okay?
01:37:08 You got it.
01:37:10 Piece of cake.
01:37:16 Where to?
01:37:20 Just drive, baby.
01:37:26 We were going for breakfast...
01:37:29 ...in Canada.
01:37:32 We made a deal:
01:37:34 If she'd stop hooking...
01:37:37 ...l'd stop shooting people.
01:37:41 Maybe we were aiming high.
01:41:06 English Subtitles by
01:41:29 He's been done bad by, so of course...
01:41:31 ...here's a primary place
01:41:36 ...in order to desire retribution.
01:41:39 So he's out for some payback.
01:41:43 He just wants what's his.
01:41:47 ...hell or high water.
01:41:48 It's kind of a perverted
01:41:52 It's a perverse set of morals.
01:41:55 Misguided.
01:41:58 His code is, I think, just a
01:42:02 Mean what you say, and say
01:42:07 And he's not...
01:42:11 ...he's not, what I'd call...
01:42:13 ...the shining beacon of civility
01:42:18 He kills people at a drop of a hat.
01:42:20 But he does stay on course.
01:42:24 He doesn't switch horses.
01:42:27 Back-story. He was a marine.
01:42:29 He just was a grunt.
01:42:31 He's a kind of blue-collar guy.
01:42:35 Got a weakness for women.
01:42:37 Likes money. Likes to go on holidays.
01:42:40 He has a certain street nous.
01:42:43 And he knows how to...
01:42:45 ...plot things out
01:42:49 A whole world is created here.
01:42:54 ...in this world, somebody like
01:42:57 ...because by virtue of not being
01:43:02 ...it makes him the hero.
01:43:06 It's a bizarre and absurdist world.
01:43:10 It's reminiscent of a lot of those
01:43:16 The Dirty Harrys and the Getaways
01:43:22 It would have been ideal
01:43:25 Scratchy 16mm black and white.
01:43:29 But you can't do that, and sell it.
01:43:32 People want a color image.
01:43:37 The way that the film was shot was
01:43:42 It's still in color, but it's got
01:43:45 ...which is nice. Gives a lot of
01:43:50 There's Maria Bello, of course...
01:43:52 ...and there's Gregg Henry, who's...
01:43:57 ...insane and funny and sick.
01:44:00 And there's Lucy Liu, of course...
01:44:03 ...who looks great in a leather
01:44:08 ...and also provides a lot of laughs.
01:44:13 So, you know, it was well cast.
01:44:16 There's some very talented
01:44:19 And they knew that their job was...
01:44:22 ...not to take themselves
01:44:30 The character I play,
01:44:33 She is a woman from Porter's past.
01:44:38 Crazy things happened in his life.
01:44:44 I'm the only person he can
01:44:47 ...to carry out this bit of a
01:44:51 Porter's looking for justice.
01:44:54 He just wants things...
01:44:56 ...to be even and equal...
01:45:00 ...and all the odds are straight,
01:45:05 I help Porter find
01:45:09 ...Val Resnick, the whole nine yards.
01:45:12 But I think, more than that...
01:45:13 ...Rosie really helps Porter...
01:45:16 ...to see his humanness again.
01:45:19 Because she knows that side of him.
01:45:27 I play Pearl, and her relationship
01:45:31 ...is that she basically
01:45:34 That's her kind of trajectory in life.
01:45:38 And her relationship to Mel is that
01:45:43 Gregg Henry is basically
01:45:46 Kind of the villain in the film.
01:45:52 Especially for Pearl, her character...
01:45:56 ...can be seen as being
01:45:59 ...because she has
01:46:05 When everyone has heightened their
01:46:09 ...to a degree that's over the top,
01:46:14 ...and it just brings it down to earth.
01:46:17 I think it's really important.
01:46:20 If he has a serious scene,
01:46:24 He doesn't need to be rude to you.
01:46:27 He can go right into it. He's
01:46:32 I think he's extremely brave
01:46:36 Of course, when I first met him,
01:46:40 ...I think the day I started working.
01:46:43 He was so warm and open and
01:46:48 ...that it made it so much easier
01:46:54 A lot of my scenes are with him
01:46:59 I had a blast. I felt so lucky
01:47:03 It just made it so much more fun.
01:47:06 Time flew by. We had such a
01:47:11 Everyone got along.
01:47:14 That made it easier.
01:47:17 I didn't have to work every day
01:47:22 Even on my days off,
01:47:25 But when I was working, I was
01:47:33 His ex-partner...
01:47:36 ...stole some money from him, gave it
01:47:41 ...and it was his money.
01:47:45 So I'm here and he's...
01:47:48 The old Doheny mansion, we're using
01:47:53 So I'm here to kind of facilitate
01:47:58 Well, he shoots holes in my genuine...
01:48:02 ...my genuine alligator bags...
01:48:05 ...filled with suits that, of course,
01:48:11 See how nasty he is?
01:48:15 Mel's a ball to work with.
01:48:19 He's always coming back with stuff.
01:48:23 We worked in Maverick. It was
