- WELL, I'M WORRIED ABOUT MY MAIL.

I THINK SOMEONE'S STEALING IT,

BECAUSE I HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANY LETTERS FROM MY KIDS

IN A LONG TIME, AND THEY ALWAYS WRITE.

- WELL, ARE THEY TAKING ALL YOUR MAIL

OR JUST THE LETTERS?

- NO, JUST THE LETTERS.

YOU'D THINK THEY'D TAKE EVERYTHING ELSE, WOULDN'T YOU?

BUT THEY DON'T.

- YEAH, WELL, I'LL TALK TO THE SUPER ABOUT IT, OKAY?

AND IF YOU WANT, I'LL KEEP AN EYE OUT TOO.

- THANKS, HON.

- I...

I GOT DESSERT.

- OH, FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE, I COULDN'T EAT THAT WHOLE THING.

- OKAY.

- I SUPPOSE I COULD EAT SOME OF IT NOW,

AND SAVE THE REST FOR LATER.

- I SUPPOSE. HERE YOU GO. - THANK YOU.

- I'M GONNA BE HOME TONIGHT, IF YOU NEED ANYTHING, ALL RIGHT?

- GOOD. - OKAY.

- BYE. ME TOO.

- YEAH? OKAY.

- I KNOW, AND I'LL BE BACK AFTER REHEARSAL.

I JUST HAD TO MAKE SURE

YOU WEREN'T HAVING ANY SECOND THOUGHTS.

THIS IS A GOOD THING FOR US, YOU KNOW.

- AFTER REHEARSAL, CARLA.

HOW HARD IS IT TO FIX A LEAK?

I FOUND A WALLET TONIGHT.

IT BELONGS TO AN AVERY PHILLIPS.

YOUR NUMBER WAS INSIDE THE WALLET.

THE WINNING NUMBERS ARE:

10, 23, 91.

10, 23, 91.

OKAY, RIGHT!

HEY, FISH, YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS.

- DO YOU EVER CHECK THE NUMBERS BEFORE WE PLAY?

- WHAT?

DO YOU EVER CHECK THE NUMBERS BEFORE WE PLAY?

- NO.

- NO, OF COURSE NOT. WHY?

'CAUSE THE RULE IS, YOU DON'T LOOK.

YOU DON'T LOOK. I DON'T LOOK.

BOLAN DOESN'T LOOK. COOPER DOESN'T LOOK.

BUT THAT PINHEAD QUIGLEY, LOOK, IT'S NUMBERS TIME,

AND HE'S GOT HIS FREAKING TV ON,

SO LOUD I CAN HEAR IT FROM THE STAIRWELL.

AND LOOK, I'M NOT SAYING HE'S CHECKING THE NUMBERS,

BUT THAT KID PUTS THE THOUGHT IN MY HEAD.

YOU KNOW I DON'T TRUST HIM, TEPP, RIGHT?

I DON'T TRUST THAT KID.

YOU KNOW, WHY YOU'RE FRIENDS WITH HIM

MAKES NO SENSE TO ME AT ALL.

HE'S GONNA RUB OFF ON YOU.

YOU KNOW THAT LITTLE RODENT MOLE STINK HE'S GOT?

IT'S GONNA RUB OFF ON YOU.

WAKE UP ONE DAY BE LIKE, "GAH!

"JESUS CHRIST, MARY, JOSEPH, WHAT IS THAT STINK?

OH, MY GOD. I SMELL LIKE QUIGLEY."

BETTER YET, WAKE UP IN 40 YEARS

AND NOT HAVE A FRIEND, IT'S 'CAUSE OF HIM.

SOME PEOPLE, THEY DON'T GET IT.

HE DOESN'T GET IT.

GIVE TO THE RED CROSS, GIVE TO THE UNITED WAY,

BUT THIS WHOLE FRIENDSHIP CHARITY CRAP

HAS GOT TO STOP.

ALL RIGHT, LOOK.

I'M DONE.

I JUST NEED A BEER.

I NEED A BEER LIKE A CRACK WHORE NEEDS A BIG FAT ROCK.

I FOUND SOME GUY'S WALLET ON MY WAY HOME TODAY.

NO PHONE NUMBER. NO DRIVER'S LICENSE. NOTHING.

I LEFT A MESSAGE WITH THIS GUY NAMED VICTOR

WHOSE NUMBER WAS IN THE WALLET.

- GOT ANY MONEY IN IT?

- NO, NO. AND I DON'T WANT THE MONEY.

- DON'T SAY YOU DON'T WANT THE MONEY.

'CAUSE IF YOU DON'T WANT THE MONEY, I WANT THE MONEY.

- OKAY, BUT I'M JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT

WHAT I SHOULD DO WITH IT.

- WELL, IN THIS CITY WHAT DO YOU DO, GIVE IT TO A COP?

BETTER CHANCE OF THROWING IT OUT THE WINDOW AND HIM GETTING IT.

- SO WHAT, YOU'RE SAYING I SHOULD JUST...

FORGET IT?

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT?

- IF THE GUY'S NOT SMART ENOUGH

TO PUT HIS NUMBER IN THE WALLET, YEAH, SCREW HIM.

- I'LL GET IT.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

I SHOULD JUST...

GET RID OF IT.

- AT LEAST I STILL GOT MY HAIR, HUH?

- EASY!

WE'RE PLAYING UNLIMITED TONIGHT, NONE OF THIS 50¢ MAX BULLCRAP.

BUT THOSE PILLS ARE WORKING.

THICK AS MUFF, THIS THING.

I FEEL GOOD.

SO MUCH GOING ON WITH CARLA.

HEY, WE SHOULD MAKE IT AN EARLY ONE TONIGHT, OKAY?

IT'S NOT PILFERAGE, OKAY?

WE'RE ALLOTTED SO MUCH A MONTH.

- FOR WHATEVER. I AM A WINE SALESMAN.

EVERYBODY DOES IT. IT'S PART OF THE JOB.

- WHAT, IS THIS A BAR MITZVAH?

YOU DON'T BRING WINE TO POKER, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

- MY FRIENDS, IT'S TIME TO PLAY.

- YOU KNOW WHAT, GUYS? WE NEED TO GET IT MOVING HERE.

'CAUSE I'M POPPING THE QUESTION TONIGHT.

- SO BET BIG EARLY. WHAT THE DEUCE?

WE'RE HERE FIVE MINUTES, GETTING GRIEF ALREADY.

- I'M JUST SAYING, A BOTTLE HERE, A BOTTLE THERE.

- PLEASE, STOP THE LECTURE.

- LOOK, IF ONE OF MY COUNSELORS TAKES HOME A BOX OF PENCILS,

IT'S THREE BUCKS; IT'S NO BIG DEAL, RIGHT?

BUT IF EVERYBODY TAKES HOME A BOX, THAT'S 300 BUCKS,

AND SOMEBODY'S PAYING FOR THAT.

ME.

COMPANIES LOSE BILLIONS IN EMPLOYEE THEFT.

- OH, NOW IT'S THEFT.

- THAT'S HIS POINT.

THAT'S WHAT PILFERING IS. IT'S THEFT.

- YOU KNOW WHAT? SCREW YOU GUYS.

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DRINK IT, DON'T.

- I'M NOT COMING DOWN ON YOU, BOY.

- YEAH, YOU ARE, BOLAN. YOU ALWAYS ARE.

- NO, NO, COME ON.

DANCE WITH ME. - WHAT ARE YOU--

I DON'T WANT TO DANCE WITH YOU, BOLAN.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU LOVED YOURSELF?

- OKAY, BOLAN, YOU KNOW WHAT?

YOU GOT TO STOP WITH THE THERAPY.

- NO, IT'S NOT THERAPY THIS TIME.

IT WAS A SEMINAR.

POWER OF SUGGESTION.

CHANGE YOUR LIFE.

- SAVE YOUR BREATH, BOLAN.

THE QUIGLEY MANTRA WILL ALWAYS REMAIN THE SAME.

"WHAT THEY DON'T KNOW, WON'T HURT THEM."

- AM I RIGHT, TEPPER?

- YOU KNOW WHAT?

YOU GUYS GOT TO LEARN TO LIVE A LITTLE.

OPEN YOURSELF UP TO NEW THINGS, YOU KNOW?

LOOK AT THAT.

- FELL OFF A TRUCK, DID IT? - SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

IT'S A STARTER RING, HE CAN MOVE UP LATER.

- LOOKS LIKE YOUR KIND OF RING, QUIGLEY.

- YOU'RE SMART NOT TO INVEST A LOT.

IT'S NOTHING TOWARDS CARLA, BUT MARRIAGE CAN REALLY SUCK.

- NO, YOUR MARRIAGE SUCKED. 'CAUSE YOU'RE AN IDIOT!

CARLA'S A KEEPER.

LOVE THAT GIRL.

GIVE ME THIS.

- HEY, TEPP!

- NOW, THAT'S CLASS!

- STOLEN RING?

GREAT WAY TO START A MARRIAGE.

I HOPE THESE ARE OKAY.

THEY'RE THE BEST I COULD FIND ON A SHORT NOTICE.

THEY SHOULD HAVE COST $10, BUT THEY WERE IN THE $5 BIN.

SO WE GOT A DEAL. WHAT?

LET ME KNOW, OKAY?

'CAUSE I GOT A GUY,

AND HE CAN HOOK YOU UP,

GET YOU SOMETHING REAL SPECIAL, OKAY?

- OKAY, GREAT! - OKAY.

- WHAT? - "I GOT A GUY."

"I GOT A GUY."

- HEY, TEPP,

I TRIED THAT ELEPHANT JUICE THING TODAY.

IT WORKS.

- WAIT, WHAT'S ELEPHANT JUICE?

IT LOOKS LIKE "I LOVE YOU."

- YEAH, I'M THE ONE WHO TOLD TEPP ABOUT IT.

- WELL, IT SOUNDS LIKE DUMBO COMING IN YOUR HAIR.

- IT'S ROMANTIC.

- IT'S FIFTH GRADE.

IT'S TALKING AROUND IT. WAIT A SECOND.

YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED,

AND YOU STILL CAN'T SAY "I LOVE YOU"?

- I CAN SAY IT.

- WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME?

- FEBRUARY '89, PAULA VALLEY.

TOOK HER TO A PRINCE CONCERT, WE RENTED A LIMO,

WE WORE PURPLE, AND I TOLD HER I LOVED HER.

TO GET IN HER PANTS.

- NO. I MEANT IT.

I DID GET IN HER PANTS.

BUT WHEN I SAID IT, I MEANT IT.

- WELL, IT'S NOT THE SAME THING.

- OKAY.

BUT DON'T THINK CARLA DOESN'T KNOW

WHAT YOU'RE DOING, 'CAUSE SHE KNOWS.

I RESPECT YOU FOR NOT SAYING IT IF YOU DON'T MEAN IT,

BUT IF YOU MEAN IT, I THINK YOU SHOULD SAY IT.

- AMEN TO THAT.

GOOD OR BAD...

TRUTH:

THE ONLY WAY TO GO.

- RIGHT ON.

- ROOF IS SECURE.

- YOU HEAR THAT?

THEY'RE ON OUR FLOOR.

- NYPD.

- DOING AN APARTMENT SEARCH AND GOING DOOR TO DOOR.

DOING THE OLD LADY, AND WE ARE NEXT.

- I GOT TO USE THE FACILITY.

- PLEASE, OPEN THE DOOR.

- IF THEY'RE CHECKING APARTMENTS,

THEY'LL WANT TO CHECK THE BATHROOM.

- NOT IF I WAS JUST IN THERE.

- NO NEED FOR THAT.

- WELL, THEN WAIT TWO SECONDS, SAY HELLO,

THEN GO DO YOUR BUSINESS.

NO, I'LL JUST SAY A LITTLE HELLO THROUGH THE DOOR.

- YEAH, DON'T WORRY, AVERY. - NYPD.

- WE'LL COVER FOR YOU.

- GUY'S ACTING LIKE AN ASS, HUH? IT'S SKETCHY.

YOU'RE THE ONE POINTING LIKE AN ARROW.

TALK. - I DON'T KNOW.

YOU GUYS SAID YOU WERE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE, RIGHT?

AND AVERY, WE JUST MET HIM TONIGHT.

WE DON'T KNOW WHO HE IS.

AND AS SOON AS YOU KNOCKED ON THE DOOR,

HE WANTED TO GO RUN AND HIDE IN THE BATHROOM.

- THREE MARY TWO, THREE MARY NAME.

LAST OF "PHILLIPS," FIRST OF "AVERY."

- AVERY, YOU KNOW, I DIDN'T KNOW.

YOU JUST WERE ACTING WEIRD.

- THE THING IS, OFFICER, WE WERE JUST TRYING TO BE CAUTIOUS.

- YEAH, THAT THE DEAL, OFFICER.

I MEAN, YOU NEVER KNOW ABOUT PEOPLE.

- ALL RIGHT, AVERY PHILLIPS.

YOU GOT A DRIVER'S LICENSE,

YOU SEE, I LOST MY WALLET EARLIER TONIGHT

AND TEPPER HERE CALLED ME OVER TO PICK IT UP.

- YEAH, IT'S TRUE.

I WAS JUST TRYING TO DO THE RIGHT THING.

- I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS MISSING.

- YOU'RE A FIREMAN, HUH? - RETIRED.

YOU SEE, I GOT A COUPLE OF PARKING TICKETS.

- PARKING TICKETS?

- LIKE I SAY, IT'S KIND OF CONFUSING.

SEE, I...I'M TRYING TO GET THEM SORTED OUT.

I DON'T KNOW THE STATUS.

- PHILLIPS, FIRST OF AVERY.

TWO WARRANTS OUT OF QUEENS.

FAILURE TO PAY PARKING TICKETS.

- WELL, I'LL GIVE YOU A LITTLE UPDATE.

- THEY'RE WARRANTS, THAT'S THEIR STATUS.

YOU'RE WANTED.

CITY BUS DRIVER, YOU COULD LOSE YOUR JOB.

- I'M AWARE.

- YOU A FAMILY MAN? - YES.

- WHY WOULD A MAN JEOPARDIZE HIS LIVELIHOOD

OVER A COUPLE OF PARKING TICKETS?

- THEY WERE UNJUST, AND I'M CONTESTING THEM.

- WELL, AREN'T YOU THE MORAL ONE?

- YOU NEED TO ARREST ME? GO AHEAD.

- IF I DECIDE I HAVE TO RAP YOU WITH MY NIGHTSTICK

UPSIDE THAT BRAVE HEAD OF YOURS, I'LL DO SO.

I DON'T NEED YOUR PERMISSION.

ALL RIGHT, CONSIDER TONIGHT A GIFT.

ENJOY IT.

- HEY, YOU KNOW, AVERY REALLY JUST WANTS TO GO HOME.

HIS WIFE IS WORRIED.

- WELL, THEN AVERY SHOULDN'T HAVE WASTED MY TIME.

I'LL TELL YOU WHEN YOU CAN LEAVE.

ALL OF YOU.

- OH, BOY, AVERY.

YOU'RE A BLACK MAN IN THIS CITY AND YOU GET OFF?

THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN. TOTO, WAKE ME UP.

THERE WERE SOME DEFINITE POWER ISSUES GOING ON.

LOOK, AVERY, I...

I'M SORRY.

I WASN'T TRYING TO GET YOU IN TROUBLE.

- I UNDERSTAND.

- HEY, WHAT WERE YOU TRYING TO DO?

- WHAT? - WHAT WERE YOU TRYING TO DO?

- WHAT DO YOU MEAN, WHAT WAS I TRYING TO DO?

COME ON, YOU GUYS WEREN'T THINKING THE SAME THING?

SOON AS HE HEARD THE KNOCK

HE WANTED TO GO RUN AND HIDE IN THE BATHROOM.

- YOU KNOW WHAT, TEPP, I DON'T CARE WHAT WENT ON,

BUT WITH ALL HE'S GOT ON HIS MIND,

I GUESS IT'S EXPECTED.

WE PLAY FOR LOTTERY TICKETS.

LAST MAN STANDING TAKES THEM ALL.

DO YOU HAVE A TICKET? - YES.

- ACTUALLY, AVERY, WHY DON'T WE TRADE PLACES HERE?

I THINK THIS SEAT'S GONNA BE

A LITTLE MORE COMFORTABLE ON YOUR KNEE THERE.

THEN I CAN SIT OVER HERE IN COOP'S SEAT THERE, AND--

OH, THAT'S NICE. I LIKE THAT. IT'S SOFT.

TEPP, LET'S GO. ANTE IN.

- OH, YEAH...

I'M NOT IN THIS WEEK.

- I FORGOT TO BUY A TICKET.

- THAT'S BULLSHIT. YOU'RE IN.

- I'M SERIOUS. IT JUST SLIPPED MY MIND.

- WAIT, YOU'RE SAYING YOU DON'T HAVE A TICKET AT ALL?

- SORRY, I HAD A BUSY DAY.

YOU KNOW, I MEANT TO BUY ONE ON MY WAY HOME.

BUT THEN I FOUND AVERY'S WALLET, AND...

I DON'T KNOW.

I GUESS I JUST FORGOT.

- WELL, THEN I GUESS YOU DON'T MIND

IF WE CHECK IN YOUR LITTLE HIDING SPOT.

- GO AHEAD. KNOCK YOURSELF OUT, SHERLOCK.

- IT'S NOT THAT WE DON'T BELIEVE YOU.

- HOW DO YOU LIVE WITH YOURSELF?

HOW'D YOU FORGET?

YOU SHOULD BE PENALIZED FOR THAT.

- WHAT'S THE BIG DAMN DEAL?

- GUYS, IT'S TIME TO SETTLE DOWN, OKAY?

WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE HAVING FUN.

- THIS ISN'T CAMP, BOLAN.

I CAME HERE TO PLAY CARDS.

I AM SO SICK AND TIRED OF SCREWING AROUND.

TEPPER, YOU'RE ACTING MORE QUIGLEY THAN QUIGLEY.

- YOU KNOW WHAT?

I AM SO SICK OF YOU GUYS BAGGING ON ME.

- WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

WE KNOW YOU GOT A TICKET.

- YOU GUYS ARE THE BIGGEST BUNCH OF DICKS.

- OH, WE'RE DICKS. - OH, WE'RE DICKS.

- OH, LIKE YOU NEVER BOUGHT AN EXTRA TICKET, RIGHT, FISH?

- EXTRA TICKETS? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

YOU CAN BUY FREAKIN' 100 EXTRA TICKETS FOR ALL I CARE.

ALL YOU NEED IS ONE, FOR HERE.

- WELL, I DIDN'T HAVE ANY TIME TO BUY EXTRA ONES.

ALL RIGHT? THIS ONE'S...

THIS ONE'S FOR CARLA, FOR TONIGHT.

- MAYBE HE'S GOT A WINNER.

- YEAH. THAT'S IT.

THAT'S IT. I GOT A WINNER.

- NO, HE DOESN'T HAVE A WINNER.

IF HE HAD A WINNER, HE WOULDN'T BE HERE.

WAIT A MINUTE, YOU REALLY THINK I DO, DON'T YOU?

I JUST HOPE YOU'RE GETTING FREQUENT FLYER MILES

'CAUSE YOU'RE ALL OVER THE FREAKIN' MAP TONIGHT, KID.

- CALL 'EM IF YOU DO. GO AHEAD, CALL 'EM.

'CAUSE I DON'T WANT THIS SHIT HANGING OVER MY HEAD.

CALL 'EM. - FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

- SERIOUSLY, FISH. CALL 'EM UP.

- FINE, ALL RIGHT!

YOU WANT ME TO CALL 'EM? FINE, I'LL CALL 'EM.

- FORGIVE ME FOR WANTING TO DO SOMETHING SPECIAL

FOR MY GIRLFRIEND.

- IF I MAY.

WHEN TRUST BETWEEN FRIENDS IS BROKEN,

IT CAN NEVER BE REPAIRED.

IF YOU CHALLENGE HIM AND YOU'RE WRONG,

THAT COULD HAUNT THIS GROUP FOREVER.

- AVERY'S RIGHT.

THIS IS STUPID. SO FREAKIN' RIDICULOUS.

SIT THE BUTT.

LET'S SETTLE THIS.

THE RULE IS, YOU DON'T LOOK.

EVER. FOR ANY REASON.

THAT'S THE RULE, AND IT'S VERY SIMPLE.

QUIGLEY...

LOOK ME IN THE EYE.

DID YOU CHECK THE NUMBERS?

- I NEVER HAVE.

- BOLAN?

I KNOW THE ANSWER, BUT I HAVE TO ASK.

- NO.

- TEPP? - NO.

- AVERY?

I DON'T KNOW YOU, BUT I'LL TRUST YOU.

IF YOU KNOW THE NUMBERS, YOU CAN'T BE IN THE GAME.

DO YOU KNOW THE NUMBERS?

- NO.

- OKAY, THEN.

- WHAT ABOUT YOU?

- NO.

I NEVER HAVE AND I NEVER WILL.

ALL RIGHT?

LET'S PLAY LAST MAN STANDING.

- AVERY, YOU GET THIS, RIGHT?

YOU KNOW YOU COULD LOSE YOUR TICKET?

WINNER OR NOT.

- I THINK I UNDERSTAND THE GAME.

NO MISTAKING WHICH IS YOURS.

- I'M SORRY, GUYS.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT MY PROBLEM IS TONIGHT.

- I KNOW WHAT YOUR PROBLEM IS.

YOU'RE SCARED.

AND YOU OUGHT TO BE.

DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

IT'S RISKY.

- NO, IT'S ONLY RISKY IF YOU PICK THE WRONG WOMAN.

YOU HAVEN'T.

- IT'S JUST MARRIAGE.

IT DOESN'T MEAN FOREVER.

- ONE WAY OR THE OTHER, IT'LL BE OVER SOON.

- NOT SOON ENOUGH. LET'S PLAY SOME CARDS.

ALL RIGHT, AVERY. IT'S A VERY SIMPLE GAME.

FIVE-CARD DRAW. I DEAL COUNTERCLOCKWISE.

LOW MAN OUT ON EACH HAND.

STAY OFF THE BOTTOM, AND YOU STAY ALIVE.

- THAT DECK EVER MAKE ITS WAY AROUND TO ME?

- NO, FISH ALWAYS DEALS LAST MAN.

HE DOESN'T TRUST ANYBODY.

FOR SOME REASON, WE INDULGE HIM.

- NEW RULE: FROM HERE ON OUT,

ANYONE GETS UP FOR ANY REASON, YOU'RE OUT.

ALL RIGHT? AGREED?

- HEY, YOU GUYS,

DOES ANYBODY SMELL THAT?

THAT'S CAT PISS.

TEPP, YOU NEED SOME RENUZIT.

- UH-OH. WITCH DOCTOR'S GOT A GOOD HAND.

WHAT YOU GOT, WITCH DOCTOR, HUH? A PAIR?

MAYBE TWO?

- WHY DO YOU CALL ME THAT?

YOU CALL ME THAT EVERY WEEK. WHAT'S IT MEAN?

- YOU WANT TO KNOW?

- OKAY.

SEEING HOW EVERYONE'S COMING CLEAN, STARTING FRESH,

I'M GONNA LET YOU IN ON A LITTLE SECRET,

ALL YOU GUYS,

ONE OF THE REASONS WHY I CONSTANTLY KICK YOUR ASS--

AND YOU'RE GONNA REMEMBER ME COME CHRISTMASTIME.

QUIGLEY, EVERY TIME YOU HAVE A GOOD HAND,

JUST LIKE THIS, TWISTING IT AROUND.

YEAH. DEAD GIVE-AWAY.

IT'S A TELL. TELLS ME ALL I NEED TO KNOW.

EVERYONE'S GOT ONE.

YOU DON'T KNOW YOU'RE DOING IT, YOU JUST DO IT.

PERFECT EXAMPLE, BOLAN.

EVERY TIME BOLAN IS BLUFFING,

HE STARTS TAPPING HIS FOOT

LIKE HE'S GOT PALSY OR SOMETHING.

LIKE HE'S SCREAMING, "LOOK AT ME, I'M LYING!"

I GUARANTEE YOU, HE'S GOT NOTHING.

FIRST ONE OUT, I BET YOU ANYTHING.

TEPPER, ON THE OTHER HAND,

LIKE A RUSSIAN NOVEL.

VERY HARD TO READ.

ESPECIALLY TONIGHT. I NEED A GEIGER COUNTER FOR HIM.

YEAH, YOU DON'T SHOW MUCH, TEPP.

HAVEN'T FIGURED YOURS OUT. YET.

- WHAT'S YOURS?

- QUIGLEY, I JUST GOT DONE TELLING YOU, IT'S UNCONSCIOUS.

IF I KNEW, I WOULDN'T DO IT.

THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED A GIVEAWAY.

UNBELIEVABLE.

I HAND YOU THE KEYS TO THE KINGDOM,

AND YOU CAN'T EVEN WALK THROUGH THE FREAKIN' DOOR.

ALL RIGHT, BIG MAN AVERY.

HOW MANY DO YOU WANT?

OH, PAIR OF SIXES.

NOT TOO STRONG,

BUT STRONG ENOUGH TO STAY IN THE GAME,

I'M BETTING.

HUH, BOLAN? WHAT YOU GOT, QUIGLEY?

- WITCH DOCTOR, WORKING THE MOJO.

TWO PAIR.

ALL YOU GOT TO DO IS BEAT TWO SIXES.

WHAT YOU GOT, BOLAN?

OH. THE QUEEN.

TEPP, ALL YOU GOT TO DO IS BEAT A QUEEN TO STAY ALIVE.

AND HE DOES. PAIR OF THREES.

IT'S A TOUGH WAY TO START THE GAME, HUH, BOL?

- OH, YEAH, WHAT DO YOU GOT?

- OH, LET'S SEE HERE. WHAT DO I HAVE?

- THERE'S ONE BOY.

- HERE WE GO. STARTING EARLY.

- OH! AND THERE'S ANOTHER.

THE PAIR OF BOYS KICKS THE SHIT OUT OF YOUR BITCH.

BLUFFER HOLDS TRUE TO FORM.

ONE DOWN, THREE TO GO.

SEE HOW IT WORKS?

LAST MAN ALIVE GETS THE POT.

NO, BOLAN, IT DIDN'T WORK, OKAY?

THAT WAS A DOMESTIC THING. I WAS DOING IT FOR EVERYBODY.

- NO, QUIGLEY. CHECK IT OUT.

IT DIDN'T SMELL LIKE CAT PISS. I JUST SAID IT DID.

I SUGGESTED IT.

YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN AT THAT SEMINAR, BUDDY.

- WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

COME ON!

LOOK, ENOUGH OF THIS MICKEY MOUSE CRAP.

LET'S JUST SEE WHAT HAPPENS, SHALL WE, BOYS?

POW. HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT ONE?

- OH, HE'S PEEPING AGAIN.

BOLAN, PLEASE. GO SUGGEST HE JUMP.

- TWO GIRLS. ONE'S CLOTHED.

ONE'S IN A BRA, THEY'RE TRYING ON CLOTHES.

SHE IS DEFINITELY 18.

BOLAN, CHECK THAT OUT.

- NO, THANK YOU.

- WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU?

THEY'VE GOT THE WINDOW THING UP. THEY WANT YOU TO LOOK.

- HOW HIGH UP DO YOU THINK WE ARE?

HOW HIGH ARE YOU?

- YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANT TO TAKE A LOOK THERE, FISH?

A LITTLE COQUETTE IN THE WINDOW JUST FOR YOU.

- WE ARE PLAYING FOR 6 MILLION BUCKS IN HERE.

NO TIME FOR HIGH SCHOOL PEEP SHOWS.

- OKAY, WE'RE DOWN TO PANTIES NOW.

WE'RE DOWN TO PANTIES NOW.

AND YOU CAN SEE RIGHT THROUGH THEM.

COME ON, BOLAN.

THREE STORIES UP, STRAIGHT ACROSS.

I WON'T TELL ANYONE.

GIVE IT A SHOT. - MAYBE I'LL SPOT THE FOOD GUY.

- SPOT THE FOOD GUY.

YOU KNOW, I'VE ALWAYS QUESTIONED THE FASCINATION WITH VOYEURISM.

YEAH, MUST BE ONE'S LACK OF...

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!

OH, SHIT!

YOU KNEW! YOU KNEW!

THE ONE TIME I LOOKED.

THE ONE TIME.

- WELCOME TO MY SEMINAR. COME HERE.

- AVERY, HOW MANY YOU WANT?

- TWO.

- EIN, ZWEI.

HOW'D THOSE FEEL, AVERY?

THEY FEEL SEXY, THOSE CARDS?

TEPP.

- GOD. - OH, CHRIST.

- OH, GOD.

YOU KNOW WHAT? JUST GO AHEAD, DEAL.

- NO, GO CLEAN THAT THING UP.

- I'M NOT LEAVING THE TABLE, FISH.

- I'LL WATCH THE TICKETS.

GO CLEAN THAT THING UP.

FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, IT'S MAKING ME SICK.

- YOU SURE?

- YEAH, I'M SURE. HURRY. GO.

- THIS MEANS YOU'RE OUT.

- IT'S WORSE THAN PUBERTY IN THERE.

THIS KID'S LIKE A RABID DOG.

- JUST GOING ON WHAT YOU SAID.

- I THINK UNDER THE GIVEN CIRCUMSTANCES...

- RIGHT.

SORT OF LIKE A HOME COURT ADVANTAGE, I GUESS.

- YOU CAN CALL IT THAT.

- HOLD UP.

AVERY, YOU WANT THE TICKETS THAT BAD,

YOU KNOW,

JUST TAKE 'EM.

- OH, NO, WAIT. HOLD ON A SECOND. CLIP THE LIP.

FIRST OF ALL, I'M STILL IN THIS GAME.

SECOND OF ALL, NO ONE'S OUT. I SAID HE COULD GO.

- WHAT'S GOING ON? - YOU THE KING?

I DIDN'T AGREE TO ANYTHING.

- WELL, MAYBE THAT'S 'CAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE A VOTE.

- HEY, FISH...

- I GOT A TICKET IN THAT POT, AND I FIGURE I GOT A VOTE.

- YOU FIGURED WRONG, OLD MAN.

'CAUSE YOU'RE AN OUTSIDER AND YOU'RE OUTNUMBERED.

SO DON'T COME TO MY GAME AND TELL ME HOW IT'S PLAYED.

BACK OFF!

YOU'RE OUT. HE'S UP, HE'S OUT.

- HE'S NOT OUT. - WHATEVER, "HE'S NOT OUT."

IF I'M OUT, HE'S OUT.

FUCK THAT. YOU'RE OUT TOO.

- HE'S NOT OUT. I TOLD HIM HE COULD GET UP.

- WHEN DID YOU BECOME A PIT BOSS?

FISHMAN, HOW CAN YOU DO THIS?

EVERY SINGLE TIME, YOU CHANGE THE RULES.

YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS.

- I'VE HAD IT... - GUYS, GUYS!

YOU KNOW WHAT WE DO WHEN THE KIDS CAN'T GET ALONG?

- WE END THE GAME.

- HEY, HEY! BOLAN!

- RELAX. - DON'T PANIC.

THEN STOP YOUR FREAKIN' WHINING.

YOU'RE WORSE THAN MY KIDS.

NOW, I'LL BE THE ARBITER.

OKAY?

- THAT'S FINE.

- WHAT I SAY GOES.

NO ARGUING, NO DEBATING.

- JUST CA-- - JUST SHUT UP FOR ONCE!

AVERY...

ARE YOU GOING TO BE OKAY WITH MY CALL?

- SURE.

- HE'S NOT OUT.

- HE'S NOT OUT. MEANING HE'S STILL IN.

- SO I'M IN. RIGHT?

- YES. YOU'RE IN.

OH, THIS IS FUN.

- DO YOU HAVE TO SAY THAT EVERY FIVE MINUTES?

- WHAT?

- "FOR CRYING OUT LOUD." YOU SAY IT EVERY OTHER SENTENCE.

- SO WHAT? - SO IT'S ANNOYING.

- SO GROW UP. - YOU'RE AN ASS, FISHMAN.

- AND YOU CAN MOONWALK BACK TO FUCKLAND.

- HAVING FUN YET, AVERY?

IT MUST BE GREAT HAVING KIDS, HUH?

- KIDS ARE WONDERFUL.

FIRST TIME AROUND...

IT WAS GREAT.

NOW THAT I GOT THE GRANDDAUGHTERS,

LIGHT OF MY LIFE.

I'D DO ANYTHING FOR MY GIRLS.

- I BET YOU WOULD.

YOU KNOW, ALL DAY, I'M AT CAMP,

WORKING WITH MY KIDS, BUT...

BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY OF MY OWN.

YET.

I GOT ALL THESE PEOPLE TELLING ME THAT

I'M NOT READY.

BUT I FEEL LIKE YOU'RE ONLY NOT READY

IF YOU HAVEN'T LIVED ENOUGH LIFE FOR YOURSELF.

I HAVE.

I WANT 'EM.

MY WIFE AND I ARE HAVING

A LITTLE TROUBLE GETTING PREGNANT.

I WAS AT THIS CLINIC TODAY.

AND THIS NURSE PUTS ME IN THIS LITTLE ROOM

AND GIVES ME...

A BIG BUTTMAGAZINE.

SO, YOU KNOW, I DO MY THING.

AND...

AND WHEN I'M DONE, I PEEP MY HEAD OUT

AND I...

"WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS CONTAINER?"

THIS NURSE SAYS, "LEAVE IT ON THE SHELF."

I'M SORRY?

I MEAN, MY SELF-ESTEEM IS AT AN ALL-TIME LOW, YOU KNOW?

I'M IN A LITTLE GREEN CLOSET WITH BIG BUTTMAGAZINE,

SUSPECTING THAT MY SEMEN ISN'T POTENT,

AND YOU WANT ME TO LEAVE IT ON THE SHELF?

SO I LEFT IT ON THE SHELF.

- WHAT'D YOU DO WITH THE MAGAZINE?

- WHAT'S HE DOING IN THERE?

- UH, YEAH?

- HEY, HOW CAN YOU STAND FISHMAN?

HE'S RIDICULOUS.

DO YOU MIND? I GOT TO WHIZ.

- SURE, GO AHEAD. - GOOD.

FISHMAN.

TEPP,

I LITERALLY CAN'T DO THIS WITH YOU STANDING BEHIND ME.

- THERE HE IS. ABOUT TIME.

AVERY AND I MADE UP.

BFF. BEST FRIENDS FOREVER.

SIT IT.

WE'LL PLAY SOME CARDS.

- THAT'S DISGUSTING.

- WHAT DO YOU GUYS SUPPOSE THE CHANCES ARE

THAT ONE OF THESE IS A WINNER, HUH?

- 1 IN 900 MILLION.

SHH.

- TEPP, I'M GONNA USE YOUR PHONE.

I'M GONNA CALL MY DAUGHTER.

I'VE GOT ONE OF THOSE CALLING CARDS.

- ALL RIGHT, TEPP. HOW MANY YOU WANT?

- THREE. - THREE.

DEALER TAKES THREE.

THAT'S RIGHT, AVERY. I'M COMING TO GET YA.

ALL RIGHTY.

LET'S TURN 'EM, BOYS.

AVERY, WHAT YOU GOT?

OH. THAT'S NOT BAD.

THAT'S NOT BAD FOR A FIREMAN HERO

TURNED BUS DRIVER WITH TWO OUTSTANDING WARRANTS.

A, B, C.

TEPP, YOUR TURN.

ROLL 'EM OR SHOW 'EM.

TEPPER?

ROLL 'EM OR SHOW 'EM. LET'S DO IT.

- AW! BITCH!

I GET MY DAUGHTER HER OWN PHONE LINE

SO I CAN TALK TO HER ONCE IN A WHILE;

HER MOTHER TAKES IT OFF THE HOOK EVERY NIGHT.

NICE, HUH?

- FANTASTIC. TEPP!

STOP WITH THE DRAMA. ROLL YOUR CARDS, PLEASE.

TONIGHT WOULD BE FANTASTIC.

- I WILL.

- AM I MISSING SOMETHING?

ALL RIGHT, I'LL TELL YOU WHAT,

I'LL MAKE IT EASY ON YOU, TEPPER.

SEE YOU START WITH A PAIR OF THREES.

THEN YOU GO RIGHT IN

TO THE PAIR OF EIGHTS.

BANG, BANG, BOOM.

COME ON, TEPP. CAN YOU DO IT?

- WELL,

I THINK I CAN,

FISH.

- OH. I THINK HE'S PULLING A FISHMAN.

- I BELIEVE I HAVE

THESE TWO ACES, FISH.

AND...OH, WHAT'S THIS?

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

OH, AND A THIRD ONE.

- WHAT'D YOU HAVE? TWO AND DRAW ONE?

YEAH, SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I GOT LUCKY.

- SOMETHING I NEVER HAVE BEEN.

UNBELIEVABLE. I LOSE WITH TWO FREAKIN' PAIR?

I CAN'T BUY A FREAKIN' BREAK. WHERE'S THE PHONE?

I GOT TO CANCEL A BET.

- I'LL DEAL.

- YEAH, LET HOUDINI DEAL. I GOTTA GET A PLAN.

- NOW THERE'S A SURPRISE. - WHAT'D YOU SAY?

- NOTHING. I'M GONNA DEAL.

DAMN.

FEELS LIKE A DECK AND A HALF IN HERE.

WHAT DO YOU SAY WE USE A NEW DECK FOR THE LAST HAND?

- YEAH, TELL HIM PAUL FISHMAN'S ON THE LINE.

YES, I'LL HOLD.

- YOU KNOW, THE FUNNY THING ABOUT LOTTERY TICKETS,

IT'S SUCH A LEAP OF FAITH.

I'VE BEEN PLAYING THE LOTTERY FOR 10 YEARS NOW,

ONE TICKET EVERY WEEK FOR 10 YEARS.

AND I ALWAYS PLAY THE SAME NUMBERS.

I'D SOONER FORGET MY BIRTHDAY AS MY LOTTERY NUMBERS.

AND I ALWAYS BUY THEM

FROM THE SAME LITTLE KOREAN FELLOW.

HE'S GOT A PLACE RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM OUR CHURCH.

EVERY SUNDAY, AFTER I THANK THE LORD FOR MY BLESSINGS,

I SNEAK IN A LITTLE PRAYER FOR MYSELF.

I SAY, "DEAR LORD, THIS WEEK LET ME WIN."

THEN I TAKE THE GIRLS ACROSS THE STREET,

AND BUY THEM JUICE FROM THE LITTLE KOREAN FELLOW,

AND I BUY ME A LOTTERY TICKET.

THE ODD THING ABOUT THIS SUNDAY,

THE LITTLE FELLOW WASN'T THERE.

SICK OR SOMETHING.

FIRST TIME IN 10 YEARS.

BUT I BUY THE TICKET ANYWAY FROM HIS WIFE.

SAME NUMBERS, DIFFERENT HAND

PUNCHING THEM INTO THE COMPUTER.

AND I SAY TO MYSELF,

"IS THIS A SIGN?

COULD THIS BE THE WEEK I'M GOING TO WIN?"

MAYBE THE GOOD LORD KNEW

I NEEDED A DIFFERENT HAND TYPING IN THE TICKETS.

SO HE MADE THE LITTLE GUY SICK,

JUST SO I COULD WIN.

THEN I GO AND LOSE THE TICKET.

AND YOU FIND IT.

- AND HERE YOU ARE GAMBLING IT IN A POKER GAME.

- NOW HERE'S WHERE THE FAITH COMES IN.

IF THE GOOD LORD INTENDED ME TO WIN,

AND MINE IS THE WINNING TICKET,

I'M WALKING OUT OF HERE WITH IT.

BECAUSE HE WOULDN'T DO THAT,

PLAY A TRICK ON ME LIKE THAT.

- BECAUSE HE'S TOO BUSY SCREWING WITH ME.

DEAL, QUIGLEY.

YOU LISTEN TO ME, YOU LITTLE RAT BASTARD.

YOU TELL HIM FISHMAN'S CALLING BACK IN TWO MINUTES,

AND HE BETTER PICK UP THE PHONE.

THAT'S UNBELIEVABLE.

I HAVE THE ONLY BOOKIE IN NEW YORK

WITH A FREAKIN' RECEPTIONIST.

- HANDS ON THE TABLE, FELLAS.

I DON'T WANT ANY CONTROVERSY.

- HEY, GUYS.

YOU THINK WE'LL STILL BE PLAYING POKER IN 50 YEARS?

- GOD, I HOPE NOT.

- AND TAKE YOUR TIME.

6 MILLION REASONS NOT TO SCREW THIS UP.

- I THINK WE SHOULD SPLIT IT IF SOMEONE WINS.

- SINCE WHEN?

- I'VE ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT.

ESPECIALLY AFTER EVERYTHING THAT'S GONE ON TONIGHT.

- THEN WHY EVEN PLAY?

- I DON'T KNOW, FISH. FOR THE FUN OF IT.

- WHAT IS IT WITH FUN TONIGHT?

THIS ISN'T SUPPOSED TO BE FUN.

THIS IS GAMBLING.

THERE'S WINNERS AND THERE'S LOSERS.

- YES, I'LL HOLD.

- YES, I'LL HOLD.

- HOW MANY, AVE?

ONE FOR AVE.

- I JUST CALLED A HALF HOUR AGO.

- HI, MRS. DARMSETTER.

- TEPP? HOW MANY?

- WELL, SURE YOU CAN. YOU'VE DONE IT FOR ME BEFORE.

- HONEY...

- WHAT?

- DO YOU THINK THEY'D KNOW TO CHECK THE BASEMENT?

- HOW MANY, TEPP? - THE POLICE.

- DRAW TIME. LET'S GO. HOW MANY?

- TEPP. MRS. DARMSETTER.

- I DON'T KNOW. I'M SURE THEY DO.

- ARE YOU TELLING ME ALL THE MONEY I BET,

YOU CAN'T DO ME THIS ONE THING?

- REMEMBER THE EXTERMINATOR? - COME ON. HOW MANY?

- HE DIDN'T KNOW. - TEPP, PAY ATTENTION.

- AND HE'S WORKED THIS BUILDING FOR YEARS.

- HOW MANY, TEPP? - PISSING ME OFF, THIS GUY.

- SO IF HE DIDN'T KNOW, HOW ARE THEY GONNA KNOW?

- UNBELIEVABLE. - DRAW, TEPP, HOW MANY?

- MRS. DARMSETTER'S TRYING TO TALK TO YOU.

- I DON'T KNOW, BUT THEY KNOW, OKAY?

- HOW MANY? - YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT TO DO?

- HELLO? - I WANT TO DOUBLE MY BET.

I WANT SIX BILLS ON SC TOMORROW, DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?

- MAYBE YOU SHOULD SAY SOMETHING.

- I WANT YOU TO COUNT 'EM OUT FOR ME.

- SHE'S TRYING TO TALK TO YOU. - I'D SAY SOMETHING.

BUT THEY'RE NOT GOING TO LISTEN TO ME, AN OLD LADY.

- WHERE ARE YOU? - BITCH.

- TEPP, TEPP. - TEPPER.

- PISSING ME OFF, THIS GUY. - THE EXTERMINATOR, HE DIDN'T--

- TEPP. WHERE'S YOUR HEAD?

- MAYBE IF YOU SAID SOMETHING?

- WOULD YOU PUT A FUCKING SOCK IN IT?

I'M SORRY.

MRS. DARMSETTER, I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T MEAN THAT.

OH, GOD. I DIDN'T MEAN THAT.

I'M HAVING A ROUGH NIGHT HERE.

I WOULD NEVER HURT YOU.

I WOULD NEVER EVER HURT YOU.

I'M SO SORRY.

YOU KNOW THAT, RIGHT?

YOU BELIEVE ME, RIGHT?

THIS ISN'T ABOUT YOU.

WHAT HAPPENED JUST NOW IS NOT ABOUT YOU.

- YOU SCARED ME.

- I KNOW I DID.

- I'VE NEVER SEEN YOU LIKE THIS.

- YEAH.

YEAH, ME NEITHER.

COULD YOU PLEASE FORGIVE ME?

- I FORGIVE YOU.

- YOU WANT TO STAY HERE AND WATCH SOME TV?

- NO, I GUESS I BETTER GET BACK.

YOU KNOW, IN CASE SOMEBODY CALLS.

- ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE ALL RIGHT?

- I'M OKAY.

- GOOD NIGHT.

- I DEALT YOU ALREADY.

AVE?

TEPP?

- I GOT NOTHING.

- YOU GOT A FLUSH.

- HEY! - JESUS.

YOU DON'T DRAW A THREE FOR A FLUSH IN A TWO-MAN GAME.

THAT'S IDIOTIC.

YOU DON'T DESERVE TO WIN.

YOU DON'T DRAW A THREE FOR A FLUSH EVER.

I MEAN THE CHANCE OF THAT HAPPENING ARE LIKE ZERO.

- TAKE YOUR TICKETS.

- UNBELIEVABLE. QUIGLEY, GET OUT OF MY SEAT.

- TEPP, TAKE YOUR TICKETS.

- WHY DON'T YOU EVER PLAY LIKE THAT

WHEN MY MONEY'S ON THE FREAKIN' TABLE?

- TAKE YOUR TICKETS, TEPP. HERE YOU GO.

I'M GONNA CHECK THE NUMBERS.

- I'LL DO IT. - THAT'S OKAY, I GOT IT.

- QUIGLEY, GIVE ME THE PHONE NOW.

- OKAY, IT'S RINGING.

STILL WANT TO SPLIT IT?

- TONIGHT'S BIG THREE JACKPOT IS WORTH $6 MILLION.

THE WINNING NUMBERS ARE:

10, 23, 91.

TO HEAR THE NUMBERS AGAIN, PRESS ONE.

- NO WINNERS.

HEY, THANK GOD FOR THAT.

- OH, YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.

WHO'S AT THE DOOR?

WILL YOU GET THE DOOR, BOLAN?

- ALL RIGHT, TURNS OUT YOU GUYS ARE NOT

THE BIGGEST IDIOTS IN THE BUILDING.

RAYMOND GOT HIMSELF STUCK IN THE GARBAGE CHUTE,

ASS END UP.

I LIVE OFF 229TH.

I'M GONNA KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR YOU.

NOW YOU CAN LEAVE.

- THANK YOU, OFFICER CAMPBELL.

FINALLY, WE CAN PLAY SOME FREAKIN' CARDS.

- TOO LATE, TEPP. NO TAKE BACKS.

WHAT'S DONE IS DONE.

- WHAT ARE YOU DOING? - I'M GOING HOME.

- WELL, NO. IT'S STILL EARLY YET.

- NOT FOR ME.

- BOLAN.

- YEAH, GUYS. I GOT TO CALL IT TOO.

- WHAT, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

WE'VE ONLY PLAYED ONE FREAKIN' HAND ALL NIGHT.

- WELL, WE CAN GO AGAIN TOMORROW NIGHT.

- I CAN'T PLAY TOMORROW.

TONIGHT'S MY POKER NIGHT.

- HEY, GUYS, I'M CABBING IT. ANYBODY WANT TO SHARE?

- I'M SO TIRED OF HUMPING THIS FREAKIN' RIDE.

- GUESS IT WASN'T IN THE CARDS TODAY, HUH, FISH?

- AND THE SUN JUST SET

ON ANOTHER DAY YOU GAVE HEAD TO, QUIGLEY.

BUT WHAT DOES THAT DO FOR ME? HUH?

- AVERY, IT WAS NICE TO MEET YOU.

- GUYS. - LATER, BOLAN.

- HEY, YOU WANT YOUR CASH?

- I GUESS THAT'S FOR ME.

- YOU PROBABLY WANT TO GET GOING TOO, HUH, AVERY?

LET ME...LET ME GET YOUR JACKET AND STUFF.

- NO NEED TO RUSH OFF JUST YET.

smash!

- GOD, I THOUGHT THEY'D NEVER LEAVE.

OH, GOD, I'M SORRY, TEPP, THIS HAD TO HAPPEN.

DID YOU SEE THAT? DID YOU SEE HOW SMOOTH I WAS?

THREE OF CLUBS RIGHT OFF THE BOTTOM.

BOOM, BOOM. LIKE BUTTER, I'M SMOOTH.

- AVERY, I'M GOING TO GET A TOWEL.

- NO, YOU DIDN'T CATCH THAT ACTUALLY,

BECAUSE I'M KRESKIN, MOTHERFUCKER.

COME ON!

- WHAT THE FUCK?

- IT'S OKAY, IT'S OKAY.

- SON OF A BITCH.

- WE GOT AN EMERGENCY, 411 WEST 13TH, APARTMENT 7.

TEPP, TEPP, HEY, HEY, NO, NO.

THAT DOESN'T WORK! - GET AWAY FROM ME!

- HANG UP!

WE GOT $6 MILLION, GODDAMN IT!

WE GOT A WINNER HERE. I'M PROTECTING OUR MONEY.

TEPP, OUR MONEY. WE'VE GOT A WINNING TICKET.

- YOU SAID NO WINNERS, TEPP.

- HE LIED. HE LIED. HE HAD TO.

- AND BOLAN WOULD NEVER GO FOR IT.

- WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS, QUIGLEY?

BECAUSE IT'S HIS TICKET.

'CAUSE IT WAS IN HIS WALLET, AND HE CAN PROVE IT.

- WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

- BECAUSE FIREMAN FRANK HERE

PLAYS HIS GRANDDAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY.

BUT NEITHER ONE OF YOU CAUGHT THAT, DID YOU?

- NO, I DID.

I DID. QUIGLEY DID.

SHOW HIM THE TICKET, TEPP. SHOW HIM THE TICKET.

FIRST NUMBER: 10.

MONTH: OCTOBER.

SECOND NUMBER: 23, DAY.

LAST NUMBER: 91, YEAR.

OCTOBER, 23, 1991.

HE PLAYS HIS GRANDDAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY,

AND HE'S BEEN DOING IT FOR 10 YEARS.

AND DON'T YOU THINK FOR A FUCKING SECOND

THAT ALL HIS NEIGHBORS IN THE HOOD DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT,

PROBABLY PLANNING A BIG OLE BARBEQUE RIGHT ABOUT NOW.

WE GOT NO CHOICE, WE GOT NO CHOICE HERE.

THINK ABOUT IT, THINK ABOUT IT. FOUR WHITE BOYS.

FOUR WHITE BOYS RIP OFF A...

A BLACK MAN.

A HERO NO LESS.

WE'RE FUCKED.

AT THE VERY LEAST

WE HAVE AL SHARPTON UP OUR ASS

FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES.

PLUS, THIS IS THE KIND OF GUY

WHO DOESN'T EVEN QUIT HIS JOB.

SCREW THAT.

SCREW THAT.

- OKAY.

- OKAY.

- I'M QUITTING.

I'M GETTING MY DAUGHTER BACK,

YOU'RE GETTING THOSE GUYS OFF YOUR ASS,

AND TEPP, YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT.

- IT'S GONNA BE ALL RIGHT. - OH!

OH, GOD.

IT'S HIM OR US. I'LL DO IT. I'LL DO IT.

- WAIT!

- JUST GOT TO KNOW YOU'RE BEHIND ME.

- STOP IT. - STOP WHAT?

- THIS WAS YOUR IDEA. - PLEASE.

- STOP, QUIGLEY.

STOP. LOOK AT HIM.

- YOU GUYS, SHUT UP. - STOP IT.

- HEY, HEY. IT'S ME.

LET ME IN, BABY. I'M DRENCHED.

I WANTED TO LOOK SO GOOD FOR YOU TOO.

CAN I TELL YOU SOMETHING?

I AM REALLY NERVOUS.

I KNOW IT PROBABLY SOUNDS SILLY, BUT...

I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S LIKE OUR FIRST DATE ALL OVER AGAIN.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO LET ME IN.

MY KEY IS JAMMED AGAIN.

- TEPP.

DON'T BRING CARLA UP HERE.

IT'S NOT A GOOD PLACE FOR HER, ALL RIGHT?

NOT NOW.

- WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP THERE? I AM FREEZING.

LET'S GO. LET'S GO.

LET ME IN.

- HELP ME WITH HIM.

- IF IT'S ABOUT THE GUYS,

I DON'T CARE IF THEY'RE STILL THERE.

I'M SURE THEY KNOW EVERYTHING THAT'S GOING ON ANYWAY.

I'M TRYING REAL HARD TO GIVE YOU

THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT RIGHT NOW.

COME ON, I'VE WAITED SIX MONTHS FOR TONIGHT.

TEPP, IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY TO ME, THEN JUST SAY IT.

DON'T LEAVE ME STANDING OUT HERE.

YOU KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS?

YOU NEVER CHOSE ME.

I ASKED YOU OUT.

I KISSED YOU FIRST.

I WANTED TO GET MARRIED.

YOU NEVER ONCE TOOK THE INITIATIVE WITH ANYTHING.

YOU JUST LET IT HAPPEN.

NOW YOU'RE DOING IT AGAIN, AREN'T YOU?

WELL, I'M TIRED OF WAITING.

I'M TIRED OF SPENDING EVERY MOMENT

TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IT IS YOU WANT

AND HOW I CAN BE THAT.

I'M JUST TIRED.

- WE'LL STRAIGHTEN IT ALL OUT TOMORROW, TEPP.

ALL RIGHT?

I PROMISE YOU, WE'LL STRAIGHTEN IT OUT TOMORROW.

- NO, WE WON'T.

FISH, IT WON'T BE STRAIGHTENED OUT TOMORROW.

WHAT ARE WE DOING, MAN?

WE'RE FRIENDS, FISH.

WHAT ARE WE DOING?

- OH, COME ON.

YEAH, YOU'RE FRIENDS.

SINCE WHEN DO FRIENDS CHEAT EACH OTHER?

YEP. I CAUGHT THAT TOO, TEPP.

AND SINCE YOU'RE FEELING ALL RIGHTEOUS TONIGHT,

WHY DON'T YOU TELL FISH?

TELL FISH JUST HOW GOOD A FRIEND YOU ARE.

SEE, TEPP, I FIGURED OUT YOUR TELL.

WHEN YOU'RE LYING,

YOU LOOK 'EM STRAIGHT IN THE EYE.

YEP.

HE CHEATED YOU, FISH.

HE LOOKED YOU STRAIGHT IN THE EYE, AND HE CHEATED YOU.

THREE ACES?

THREE ACES, MY ASS.

- YOU CHEATED ME, TEPP?

- I DID.

I'M SORRY, FISH.

- YOU DUMB-ASSES.

30 YEARS, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR A BREAK LIKE THIS,

YOU SCREW IT UP IN A NIGHT.

THAT'S WHAT THE WALLET WAS ALL ABOUT?

JESUS, TEPP.

AND QUIGLEY, YOU SMASHED HIS HEAD

'CAUSE HE'S A THREAT TO YOU?

DID YOU LISTEN TO A WORD HE SAID ALL NIGHT?

HE'S GOT A WIFE AND KIDS, MAN.

WE KNOW WHERE HE LIVES.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO HURT A GUY LIKE THAT.

NOW...

YOU KNOW, NOW, IT'S A PROBLEM.

AVERY...

YOU'RE A PROBLEM.

- NOT IF WE SPLIT IT.

LOOK, I'M A POOR MAN TODAY.

TOMORROW, I'LL BE A MILLIONAIRE.

EITHER WAY.

JUST WANT A FAIR SHARE.

- YOU SEE, QUIGLEY, THERE'S A MAN WHO'S THINKING.

HE'S LIVING IN THE MOMENT. HALF HIS HEAD'S FREAKIN' GONE,

AND HE'S SMARTER THAN ALL THREE OF US PUT TOGETHER.

AVERY.

I DON'T WANT TO THREATEN YOU.

I KNOW WHAT THAT FEELS LIKE.

BUT IF WE DO THIS,

AND YOU TURN ON US...

- I DON'T WANT ANYBODY ELSE HURT.

- RIGHT.

- I GOT NO PROBLEM WITH THAT.

- I'M GOOD WITH THAT TOO.

- NO.

WE'RE NOT SPLITTING IT.

- WHAT?

- 10 MINUTES AGO,

YOU WERE JOHNNY-SPLIT-IT-ALL.

WHAT, ARE YOU THE MORAL MAJORITY NOW?

WHAT, AM I IN THE FREAKIN' 700 CLUB?

- WE'RE SPLITTING IT, TEPP.

- IT'S HIS.

IT WAS HIS TO BEGIN WITH.

NO, TEPP. NO, NO.

YOU FOUND THE WALLET.

THAT TICKET BECAME YOURS,

AND THEN YOU BET IT IN A GAME.

WE'RE SPLITTING IT. - WE'RE SPLITTING IT, TEPPER.

- AND YOU DAMN WELL OUGHT TO BE HAPPY ABOUT IT,

SEEING AS HOW YOU CHEATED ME.

DON'T COMPLICATE THIS, TEPPER, PLEASE.

JUST DON'T COMPLICATE IT.

THIS IS THE BEST WAY TO DO IT.

WE'VE ALL GOT SOMETHING ON EACH OTHER.

ALL RIGHT? NO ONE'S GONNA TALK.

IT WOULD ONLY HURT US ALL.

SO WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO IS, I'M GOING TO TAKE THE TICKET.

I'LL CASH IT OUT; I'LL DIVVY IT UP.

SEE, I CAN HANDLE THAT.

- WE'RE NOT SPLITTING IT.

IT'S HIS, AND HE'S LEAVING WITH IT.

- NO, WHAT IS THIS? WHAT IS THIS, TEPPER, HUH?

COME ON. THIS IS ABOUT...

YOU FEEL GUILTY, TEPP?

'CAUSE IF YOU FEEL GUILTY, GIVE US THE TICKET.

- GIVE US THE TICKET, TEPP.

- I'M DOING THIS 'CAUSE IT NEEDS DOING.

TAKE YOUR TICKET, AVERY.

- I APPRECIATE THE GESTURE, BUT...

IT JUST DOESN'T SEEM DECIDED YET.

IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE, IS IT?

- GUESS WHO?

TICK, TICK. OPEN THE DOOR.

I WAS TWO BLOCKS AWAY FROM GETTING CLOCKED OUT.

I SHOULD HAVE RUN THE LIGHT.

- WHAT DID I TELL YOU, TEPP? I TOLD YOU THEY COME--

OFFICER, I'M SORRY.

THIS IS A LITTLE EMBARRASSING.

I'M THE ONE WHO CALLED, ACTUALLY.

I...I PANICKED.

- WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?

LIKE HE SAID. HE PANICKED.

WE WERE ROUGH-HOUSING AND

I TOOK A HEADER,

AND THE LITTLE SHIT PANICS.

- YEAH, I THOUGHT HE WAS HURT. - HE JUST PANICKED.

SO HE SAID.

I'VE GROWN TIRED OF YOU GUYS.

- I'M THE ONE WHO CALLED 911.

- WELL, I'M ALL OUT OF GOLD STARS.

WHY DON'T YOU WORK IT OUT WITH YOUR BUDDIES.

- YEAH, WELL, THAT'S 'CAUSE I'VE DONE SOMETHING ILLEGAL.

AND I WANT TO CONFESS.

I'M SORRY, FISH.

- YOU WISE GUYS...

I'M FINISHING A DOUBLE SHIFT

AT THE END OF A VERY LONG WEEK.

I'VE GOT DAUGHTERS HOME FROM SCHOOL

WHO ARE WAITING TO SPEND TIME WITH THEIR DAD.

YOU ARE CUTTING INTO MY QUALITY TIME,

AND I DO NOT APPRECIATE IT.

THIS TICKET...

BELONGS TO AVERY.

NOT ME.

AND NOT US.

- WELL, THEN, I SUGGEST YOU GIVE IT TO HIM.

- THE PROBLEM IS,

IT'S A WINNER.

IT'S WORTH $6 MILLION.

IF I GIVE THIS TO YOU,

WILL YOU SEE THAT AVERY GETS HOME SAFELY WITH IT?

- COURTESY, PROFESSIONALISM AND RESPECT.

THAT'S ME.

- NICE.

- THIS YOUR TICKET?

- YES, SIR.

- DOES THAT MEAN IT'S STOLEN PROPERTY?

- LOOK, I JUST WANT WHAT'S FAIR.

THERE'S NO PROBLEM.

- OH, BUT THERE IS A PROBLEM.

SEE, I WANTED TO GET OUT OF HERE.

I WANTED YOU GUYS TO SETTLE THIS THING ON YOUR OWN,

ON ACCOUNT I'VE GOT FAMILY AT HOME.

BUT LIKE A BOIL ON MY ASS,

YOU GUYS JUST WOULDN'T GO AWAY.

SO WHETHER YOU WANT TO PRESS CHARGES OR NOT,

I HAVE ALL THE PAPERWORK TO DO.

PROCEDURE, I'M SURE YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT.

I'LL DO IT MONDAY MORNING.

YOU'LL FIND IT IN LOST PROPERTY WITH YOUR NAME ON IT, AVERY.

- YEAH,

AND I'M 10 INCHES.

- ARE YOU BRAGGING,

OR ARE YOU DOUBTING MY WORD?

YEAH, JUST ANOTHER DIRTY COP, HUH?

MAYBE YOU'RE RIGHT.

PAPERWORK DOES HAVE A WAY OF GETTING MISPLACED.

YOU GIRLS HAVE A NICE NIGHT.

- TEPPER,

PLEASE TELL ME YOU JUST PULLED A FAST ONE.

AND WE'RE ABOUT TO WORK THIS OUT

LIKE MEN.

RIGHT?

YOU DIDN'T JUST GIVE A NEW YORK CITY COP

A $6 MILLION LOTTERY TICKET, RIGHT?

RIGHT?

- I DID THE RIGHT THING, FISH.

- YOU DID.

OH, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

YOU DID.

YOU DID.

CONGRATULATIONS, TEPP.

YOU JUST GOT CODE.

I JUST WISH IT COULD HAVE BEEN TOMORROW.

NICE KNOWING YOU, AVERY.

CALL HER.

CALL HER.

- I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU TRIED TO DO.

- I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU TRIED TO DO.

- I DID THE RIGHT THING.

- WHAT?

OH-H!

SON OF A...

OH!

THERE'S NO MISTAKING THAT TICKET, IS THERE?

SON OF A BITCH!

- YOU'VE HAD A LITTLE TOO MUCH MAYBE, ALL RIGHT?

OH, WHAT'S THIS?

HEY, OH!

OH! OH!

- THIS IS BIG BROTHER BOLAN

SENDING THE GOOD LOVE OUT TO MY TWO FAVORITE PEOPLE.
