1. Most people like to think they have
some degree of control over their lives.
Copy !req
2. The truth is, we're all subject
to the influence of others.
Copy !req
3. Those who appreciate this
Copy !req
4. can make a lot of money
from those who don't.
Copy !req
5. But any small-time grifter
Copy !req
6. who ever dealt off the bottom
of a deck can tell you that.
Copy !req
7. I can tell you about the price
one pays for peddling confidence,
Copy !req
8. how every mark you fleece
takes away another piece of your soul
Copy !req
9. and what happens when you try to
pick up the pieces.
Copy !req
10. I'm risking 50 grand here!
Copy !req
11. 50 grand for $500,000 worth.
Copy !req
12. You having second thoughts?
Copy !req
13. You give me the word,
I'll turn this car around.
Copy !req
14. I work for you.
If you got a bad feeling about this,
Copy !req
15. let's just go home.
Copy !req
16. Hey.
Copy !req
17. I'm a big shot, see?
Copy !req
18. I can chance it.
Copy !req
19. You're the man.
Copy !req
20. The beginning of the end
started out normally enough.
Copy !req
21. I was in the middle
of a deal,
Copy !req
22. trustworthy as ever.
Copy !req
23. My Pop used to say I was the
best loyalty man he'd ever seen.
Copy !req
24. I played
the Sll-American boy.
Copy !req
25. People thought they could
pull the wool over my eyes.
Copy !req
26. Well, that was my con,
and it never failed.
Copy !req
27. Ahem. Let's see it.
Copy !req
28. Give me a break,
will ya?
Copy !req
29. Here. Okay?
Okay?
Copy !req
30. Yo!
Copy !req
31. I feel like a fucking piece
of bait in here!
Copy !req
32. Before you give him the money,
tell him I want a taste.
Copy !req
33. What, what?
Copy !req
34. He wants a taste.
Copy !req
35. Sure, he does.
Copy !req
36. I'm seein' angels.
Copy !req
37. Do it. Do it!
Copy !req
38. He's wired!
It's a setup!
Copy !req
39. Oh...oh! Aah!
Copy !req
40. Police! Drop it!
Copy !req
41. Freeze!
Hold it right there!
Copy !req
42. - Drop your weapon!
- Go on!
Copy !req
43. Get out of here!
Copy !req
44. Uh...ahh.
Copy !req
45. All right, everybody.
Porky is out of here.
Copy !req
46. Whoo!
Copy !req
47. - All right!
- Nice work
Copy !req
48. Got me right
in the heart.
Copy !req
49. Hey, Joey!
Copy !req
50. All right, Mikey.
Show's over.
Copy !req
51. Mikey.
Copy !req
52. Mike.
Copy !req
53. - Like you.
- That was great.
Copy !req
54. Hey, Pop,
it's all here...
Copy !req
55. Every last dollar!
Yo!
Copy !req
56. You shot him!
Copy !req
57. What?
Copy !req
58. He's really been shot.
Copy !req
59. There's real bullets
in here, man.
Copy !req
60. I had the blanks.
Copy !req
61. I had the b--
I had the--
Copy !req
62. I had the blanks
in my gun!
Copy !req
63. What the hell are you trying
to pull, Joe?
Copy !req
64. - Get that gun.
- Father?
Copy !req
65. Joe.
Copy !req
66. Son...get the cake.
Copy !req
67. My brother took the cake.
Copy !req
68. My brother took the cake.
Copy !req
69. Your brother?
Copy !req
70. You go get it.
Copy !req
71. Bring it, bring it,
bring it, bring it.
Copy !req
72. Go get it for me.
Copy !req
73. Pop!
Copy !req
74. Pop?
Copy !req
75. - Pop!
- Come on, let's go. Get him
Copy !req
76. - Pop!
- Come on, Joe, Joe, Joe.
Copy !req
77. Come on, Joe.
Got to go.
Copy !req
78. [Siren]
Copy !req
79. I didn't do it!
I had the blanks!
Copy !req
80. Pop!
Copy !req
81. We'd always been a team.
Copy !req
82. Pop called the shots,
and I carried the ball.
Copy !req
83. Without him, I went numb.
Copy !req
84. We're burying your father
in Potter's field.
Copy !req
85. He's already in the box.
Copy !req
86. Wouldn't want the cops
snooping, would we?
Copy !req
87. I remember loading blanks.
Copy !req
88. There's no way I would ever
make a mistake like that!
Copy !req
89. You were in charge
of the guns.
Copy !req
90. There's no way
Copy !req
91. I would make
a mistake like that.
Copy !req
92. Take it.
Copy !req
93. Take a look.
Copy !req
94. Go on.
Copy !req
95. It's Huey's gun.
Copy !req
96. It's got the blanks.
Copy !req
97. God...damn.
Copy !req
98. Tell me this is a dream
I'm gonna wake up from.
Copy !req
99. I feel real bad, Joey.
Copy !req
100. Maybe I should have
double-checked the chambers.
Copy !req
101. Sorry.
Copy !req
102. Here's your cut.
Copy !req
103. Got to get out of town,
set yourself up.
Copy !req
104. Fast, like
the rest of us.
Copy !req
105. Pete!
Copy !req
106. Pete!
Copy !req
107. Pete, did you see
the woman on my--
Copy !req
108. What was that?
Copy !req
109. I almost forgot.
Copy !req
110. This is all your father
had on him.
Copy !req
111. See ya.
Copy !req
112. Bus 59 leaving Gate 5
in 15 minutes.
Copy !req
113. Bus 59 leaving gate 5...
Copy !req
114. I told myself the woman at
the grave wasn't really there.
Copy !req
115. My scattered mind had
just dredged up a memory.
Copy !req
116. "Leave the past to them
who's stuck there,"
Copy !req
117. is what Pop
would've told me.
Copy !req
118. "There ain't no money
in a memory."
Copy !req
119. The man was never
short on advice.
Copy !req
120. With his last breath, he was still
telling me what to do.
Copy !req
121. He hadn't said
what the cake was,
Copy !req
122. but his address book
said where to start looking--
Copy !req
123. out West, where
his brother Lou would be.
Copy !req
124. I always remembered
being alone.
Copy !req
125. Pop and I spent
a lot of time on buses
Copy !req
126. moving from town to town,
Copy !req
127. waiting for
the heat to pass.
Copy !req
128. Pop was the teacher.
I was the student.
Copy !req
129. That was the extent
of our relationship.
Copy !req
130. So it was a surprise to me
Copy !req
131. when I found the letter
he wrote to his brother Lou--
Copy !req
132. the brother I never
even knew he had.
Copy !req
133. Most of it was about
how much Pop hated him.
Copy !req
134. Something had gone down
between the two brothers.
Copy !req
135. Looked like a woman
was the cause of it.
Copy !req
136. But the real shock was that
he said he was proud of me
Copy !req
137. and that he loved me.
Copy !req
138. [Chuckles]
Copy !req
139. Now, that's not the Pop
that I remembered.
Copy !req
140. Maybe it was the way
he used to be
Copy !req
141. before all he cared about
was turning a buck.
Copy !req
142. Maybe it was Lou
who had changed him.
Copy !req
143. That's what
I wanted to believe--
Copy !req
144. the big secret
I swore I'd uncover.
Copy !req
145. The coast was alive, but I
had no time for the sights.
Copy !req
146. I was looking for something
to tip me off,
Copy !req
147. a break in the routine,
Copy !req
148. a place to start the hunt.
Copy !req
149. - Appreciate it.
- Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
150. What it is, my man.
Copy !req
151. - What it is.
- Hey, how you doing?
Copy !req
152. Do you have
a nice hot one?
Copy !req
153. Salted or unsalted?
Copy !req
154. I don't care...
Long as it's lucky.
Copy !req
155. Hope that's
hot enough for you.
Copy !req
156. So do I.
Ah, so do I.
Copy !req
157. I hope that
we get there in time.
Copy !req
158. Hello.
Can I help you?
Copy !req
159. Um...coffee, please.
Copy !req
160. - Regular or decaf?
- Regular.
Copy !req
161. Hey...hey.
Copy !req
162. 75 cents for the coffee, please.
Copy !req
163. Here you go.
Keep it.
Copy !req
164. You come here often?
Copy !req
165. No, I don't.
It's the first time.
Copy !req
166. Why do you ask?
Copy !req
167. I don't know.
Copy !req
168. Would you like
a nice maple spiral doughnut
Copy !req
169. to go with your coffee?
They're heavenly.
Copy !req
170. Maybe some other time.
Thanks.
Copy !req
171. Hey, kid.
What's your name?
Copy !req
172. Mitch.
Copy !req
173. Want to make
an easy 20 bucks, Mitch?
Copy !req
174. For what?
Copy !req
175. I'm looking for Lou Donan.
Copy !req
176. Who's asking?
Copy !req
177. His nephew.
Copy !req
178. Pick a card.
Copy !req
179. I don't think so.
Copy !req
180. You don't think so. Ha.
Copy !req
181. That's not very sociable behavior.
Go on, pick a card.
Copy !req
182. Look, I'm a little
busy right now.
Copy !req
183. Why don't you take your game
someplace else.
Copy !req
184. Busy at the market.
Copy !req
185. Tell you what.
Copy !req
186. If it's a high card,
I'll tell you who I am,
Copy !req
187. and if it's a low card,
I'll tell you who you are.
Copy !req
188. Is that a deal?
Copy !req
189. Sure.
Copy !req
190. Joker.
Copy !req
191. Joker.
Copy !req
192. Hallelujah.
Copy !req
193. Praise the lord.
Copy !req
194. It's a hell of
a card trick.
Copy !req
195. Why don't you get lost?
Copy !req
196. So you're
Lou's nephew, huh?
Copy !req
197. - Yeah, that's right.
- Yeah, that's right.
Copy !req
198. I didn't know
Lou had a nephew.
Copy !req
199. Well, you know it now.
Copy !req
200. Come on. Let's take
a walk, friend.
Copy !req
201. Get comfortable.
Copy !req
202. Damn, I love
watching people.
Copy !req
203. Damn! Business really booming
out there, huh?
Copy !req
204. Look at all those happy people.
Ha ha ha!
Copy !req
205. You can learn a lot from...
Copy !req
206. Just watching people.
Copy !req
207. So...God, it's been...
Copy !req
208. 30, 30 some-odd years
Copy !req
209. since I've...
seen my nephew.
Copy !req
210. What's the matter,
cat got your fuckin' tongue?
Copy !req
211. All this time, I...
Copy !req
212. I didn't even know
I had an uncle.
Copy !req
213. Well, then there's
a lot you don't know.
Copy !req
214. What did you want to
see me about, Joe?
Copy !req
215. Well, I, uh...
Copy !req
216. I've got some bad news
about my father.
Copy !req
217. - He's, um...
- He's dead.
Copy !req
218. Yes, I know.
Oh...
Copy !req
219. It must be
kind of a shock, huh?
Copy !req
220. Looks like you've
just seen a ghost, friend.
Copy !req
221. Eddie, will you put
the gun down, please,
Copy !req
222. and, uh, get Joe
a glass of water?
Copy !req
223. [Telephone rings]
Copy !req
224. Yeah?
Copy !req
225. Yeah.
Copy !req
226. Yeah.
Copy !req
227. You're down.
Copy !req
228. All right.
Copy !req
229. Good luck.
Copy !req
230. Bye-bye.
Copy !req
231. So...how'd you find me?
Copy !req
232. Um... I had to go through some
of my father's stuff.
Copy !req
233. Your name was in
his address book,
Copy !req
234. so I hopped on a bus
to come out and see you.
Copy !req
235. Ah.
Copy !req
236. How did you know
about him?
Copy !req
237. Friend told me.
Copy !req
238. Didn't know much.
Said that, uh...
Copy !req
239. Mike had been killed
in some kind of con.
Copy !req
240. Maybe you can fill me in.
What happened?
Copy !req
241. I don't really
know what happened.
Copy !req
242. He was off
doing his own thing.
Copy !req
243. Pop always had a few
irons of his own in the fire.
Copy !req
244. I just, uh...
Copy !req
245. I wished I could
have been there, you know?
Copy !req
246. Mike, Mike, Mike.
Never learned.
Copy !req
247. Even as kids, he was always
going out on his own,
Copy !req
248. getting his hands dirty.
Copy !req
249. Tsk.
Copy !req
250. - Hell, I'm sorry, Joe.
- Yeah, well, thanks.
Copy !req
251. We were, uh...
We were a team.
Copy !req
252. There's not really much left
back there for me now.
Copy !req
253. [Telephone rings]
Copy !req
254. Eddie, would you
get that, please?
Copy !req
255. [Ring]
Copy !req
256. Yeah.
Copy !req
257. Depends. Who's calling?
Copy !req
258. Yeah. The doctor's in.
Copy !req
259. How you fixed
for bread?
Copy !req
260. - I'm all right.
- You got a place to crash?
Copy !req
261. Yeah, I got a...
Motel.
Copy !req
262. It's just
up the road.
Copy !req
263. Nice?
Copy !req
264. It's comfortable.
Copy !req
265. By god.
Copy !req
266. Listen, Joe, uh...
Copy !req
267. Why don't you go out
with Eddie tonight, huh?
Copy !req
268. [Eddie]
All right.
Copy !req
269. Yeah. Do a little
bar hopping.
Copy !req
270. He'll show you around.
Copy !req
271. What do you think?
Copy !req
272. Uh, yeah.
That sounds like a lot of fun...
Copy !req
273. Uncle Lou.
Copy !req
274. Uncle Lou?
Copy !req
275. Ho ho ho ho.
Uncle Lou.
Copy !req
276. I like it!
I like it!
Copy !req
277. First-rate.
Copy !req
278. It's really good
to see you, kid.
Copy !req
279. Yeah. Ha ha ha.
Copy !req
280. Lord, I'm free!
Copy !req
281. How long you been
working for Lou?
Copy !req
282. Couple of years, friend.
Copy !req
283. Couple of beautiful years.
Copy !req
284. Pretty nifty bookie operation
he's got going there.
Copy !req
285. I set that up.
Copy !req
286. Wow.
Copy !req
287. That was a real tough one
for me to spot.
Copy !req
288. Well, I guess I'm just a real
shrewd guy, huh?
Copy !req
289. Yeah, I guess you are.
Copy !req
290. You and Lou run
the whole market?
Copy !req
291. You know, for a guy that's
just come into town,
Copy !req
292. you're sure asking
an awful lot of questions.
Copy !req
293. - What are we doing?
- My girl's coming along.
Copy !req
294. You don't mind,
do you, friend?
Copy !req
295. I don't mind.
Copy !req
296. Diane, this is Joe.
Joe, this is Diane.
Copy !req
297. Pleased to meet you, Joe.
Copy !req
298. Pleased to meet you, Diane.
Copy !req
299. I--I'm kind of
feeling all tongue-tied.
Copy !req
300. I just don't know what to--
I wanted to--
Copy !req
301. aw, shucks.
Here.
Copy !req
302. Eddie.
Copy !req
303. Now that we're all
one big happy family,
Copy !req
304. what do you say we have some
fun-time family fun?
Copy !req
305. Sure.
What's the scheme?
Copy !req
306. Little pigeon dropping.
Copy !req
307. You think you
can handle that, friend?
Copy !req
308. Just tell me
what I have to do.
Copy !req
309. You pick up
the dropping.
Copy !req
310. It looked like
I had to pay my dues
Copy !req
311. by wilding with
uncle Lou's flunky.
Copy !req
312. [Car won't start]
This fucking fucker's fucked!
Copy !req
313. Well, at least he was
a lively fellow.
Copy !req
314. Okay., what'll
you have?
Copy !req
315. I'd like a bottle
of your best champagne.
Copy !req
316. We only have shots
and beer, honey.
Copy !req
317. Well, I'll have two shots
of your finest whiskey.
Copy !req
318. "Shape the con, or it'll shape you,"
Pop would say.
Copy !req
319. Wise words my new friend
Eddie never learned.
Copy !req
320. He was the type
of bad-ass bluff man
Copy !req
321. that was stuck on the high
you get from the con,
Copy !req
322. - and that's bad news.
- Well, lovebirds, here you go.
Copy !req
323. Ooh...
Gorgeous bracelet.
Copy !req
324. Great.
Copy !req
325. I got to tell ya,
this just keeps coming.
Copy !req
326. Diane I couldn't read
beyond her sexy front,
Copy !req
327. which meant she was good.
Copy !req
328. Hey!
Copy !req
329. Handsome, what'll you have?
Copy !req
330. Uh, I'll have a beer, please.
Copy !req
331. Ah, shit!
Copy !req
332. Let's blow this joint.
Copy !req
333. You call it, baby.
Copy !req
334. I'm slain.
Copy !req
335. Bottoms up.
Copy !req
336. - Pay phone?
- Sure, right back there, honey.
Copy !req
337. Maybe you left it
at the restaurant.
Copy !req
338. No, I'm sure I had
it in here.
Copy !req
339. [Bartender]
Did you lose something?
Copy !req
340. No, we're fine.
Copy !req
341. Maybe I did leave it
in the restaurant.
Copy !req
342. I just said that before.
What's the matter?
Copy !req
343. Fuck, honey!
Copy !req
344. Listen...
Copy !req
345. [Clears throat]
Copy !req
346. My wife,
uh... ahem...
Copy !req
347. My wife's
a little drunk,
Copy !req
348. and it's kind of embarrassing,
Copy !req
349. but she's lost a very
special bracelet tonight,
Copy !req
350. and, um...
Copy !req
351. And it's worth
a lot to me,
Copy !req
352. so, if you should
find it...
Copy !req
353. If you could call me
at this number...
Copy !req
354. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
355. Could we hurry up?
Copy !req
356. And, uh...
Copy !req
357. I'll give you $500.
Copy !req
358. - Oh... sure.
- Come on.
Copy !req
359. Where'd you find that?
Copy !req
360. I found it on the floor
in the phone booth.
Copy !req
361. That's my bracelet.
I lost it.
Copy !req
362. No, it's not.
Copy !req
363. I'll give you $50
for that bracelet.
Copy !req
364. $50 bucks for this?
Copy !req
365. All right, $100?
Copy !req
366. $200.
Copy !req
367. Okay
Copy !req
368. Whoo!
Copy !req
369. Thank you, lady.
Copy !req
370. Yeah.
Copy !req
371. You take care
of yourself.
Copy !req
372. What the hell was
that all about, Sam?
Copy !req
373. I just made myself $300.
That's what that's about.
Copy !req
374. Oh, boy!
Copy !req
375. Ooh, boy!
Copy !req
376. Ooh!
Copy !req
377. [Telephone ringing]
Copy !req
378. It's ringing.
It's ringing.
Copy !req
379. [Beeping]
Copy !req
380. We're sorry.
Copy !req
381. You have reached a number
that has been disconnected
Copy !req
382. or is no longer in service.
Copy !req
383. Great night.
Copy !req
384. Great fucking night.
Copy !req
385. I got to get some gum.
How about you, babe?
Copy !req
386. Would you like
a piece of gum?
Copy !req
387. No. Thank you.
Copy !req
388. Are you sure?
No chiclets?
Copy !req
389. Maybe I don't have the same
cravings as you, Eddie.
Copy !req
390. Ooh.
Copy !req
391. Ooh.
Copy !req
392. Look, come here, you.
Copy !req
393. Oh.
Copy !req

Copy !req
397. We'll go home soon.
Copy !req
398. What a guy.
Copy !req
399. Helps pass the time.
Copy !req
400. There's more to life
than just passing time,
Copy !req
401. isn't there, Diane?
Copy !req
402. Maybe we're both
just running around in circles...
Copy !req
403. And just
happen to touch.
Copy !req
404. The sun and the moon
do that.
Copy !req
405. They call it
an eclipse.
Copy !req
406. Well, if you think
he's up to it...
Copy !req
407. I think he's a little soft.
Copy !req
408. Okay.
Okay.
Copy !req
409. Well, we'll throw him
a knuckle ball. Why not?

Copy !req
463. All right.
Copy !req
464. - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
465. Where to now, Eddie?
Copy !req
466. Where's the money?
Copy !req
467. I think I'll give it
to Lou myself.
Copy !req
468. Good night, Joe.
Copy !req
469. Good night, Diane.
Copy !req
470. Eddie was kid stuff.
Copy !req
471. Lou was the real deal.
Copy !req
472. He was as clever as Pop,
Copy !req
473. a true pro of the high con.
Copy !req
474. I saw that right away.
Copy !req
475. And he had something big
in the works
Copy !req
476. that was going down soon.
Copy !req
477. You pick up on these things
Copy !req
478. when you're in the game
long enough.
Copy !req
479. I had to find a clue that
would lead me to the cake,
Copy !req
480. or at least tell me what
the hell the cake was.
Copy !req
481. What's he up to?
Copy !req
482. I thought about
the two brothers
Copy !req
483. and what could have
driven them apart.
Copy !req
484. Then I found the picture
I saw in my father's bag.
Copy !req
485. This time it wasn't ripped.
Copy !req
486. There was my mother standing between
Pop and uncle Lou,
Copy !req
487. both holding her
like bookends.
Copy !req
488. I got to tell you,
it gave me a chill.
Copy !req
489. Get the cake.
My brother took the cake.
Copy !req
490. Did my mother have something
to do with all this?
Copy !req
491. Was that why Lou was torn away
from my Pop's photo?
Copy !req
492. I didn't know it then,
but that photo was the hook
Copy !req
493. that would send me deeper
into the shadows,
Copy !req
494. squinting for the truth.
Copy !req
495. Open your eyes, Joe.
Copy !req
496. You might find what
you've been looking for.
Copy !req
497. Who says I'm looking?
Copy !req
498. I do.
Copy !req
499. Unless you've been out late
being a naughty boy.
Copy !req
500. Need a naughty girl
for that.
Copy !req
501. How about her?
Copy !req
502. That's different.
Copy !req
503. That's an old girlfriend.
Copy !req
504. Oh.
Copy !req
505. Romantic...
Copy !req
506. Living in the past.
Copy !req
507. Not really.
Copy !req
508. Of course not.
Copy !req
509. Eyes on tomorrow.
Copy !req
510. Looking to score big.
Copy !req
511. Break a young girl's heart.
Copy !req
512. You have a way
with words.
Copy !req
513. Are you going
to drink that,
Copy !req
514. or are you going
to let it evaporate?
Copy !req
515. You think you know me, Diane?
Copy !req
516. I want to.
Copy !req
517. What about your friend Eddie?
Copy !req
518. Make me forget him.
Copy !req
519. How long until you forget me?
Copy !req
520. Treat me right,
maybe never.
Copy !req
521. Tempting words...
Copy !req
522. If I were a sucker.
Copy !req
523. I'm playing you
straight, Joe.
Copy !req
524. Drop it, Diane.
Copy !req
525. I know what you are.
Copy !req
526. The question is, why are you here?
What do you want?
Copy !req
527. You're hurting me.
Copy !req
528. Well, the truth
can be painful.
Copy !req
529. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
530. It's just the way
I operate, you know?
Copy !req
531. Took a dozen Eddie's.
Copy !req
532. You're different...
Copy !req
533. Stronger.
You're...
Copy !req
534. I shouldn't have
played it that way.
Copy !req
535. It was a mistake.
Copy !req
536. Just don't tell Eddie
I was here, okay?
Copy !req
537. Diane...
Copy !req
538. You don't have to
hook people.
Copy !req
539. You don't know me.
Copy !req
540. I don't have anyone.
Copy !req
541. I don't have
any uncle Lou.
Copy !req
542. I don't have
any back home.
Copy !req
543. I got me alone,
and that's it.
Copy !req
544. I do what I got to do
to survive.
Copy !req
545. All right. Listen.
I'm sorry.
Copy !req
546. Maybe I made a mistake.
Copy !req
547. I know what it feels
like to be alone.
Copy !req
548. I don't sleep with Eddie.
Copy !req
549. That's nice to know.
Copy !req
550. What was she like?
Copy !req
551. The girl in the locket?
Copy !req
552. I barely remember her.
Copy !req
553. So why do you
carry it then?
Copy !req
554. It's just kind of
a reminder, I guess.
Copy !req
555. Of what?
Copy !req
556. Things we're still
looking for.
Copy !req
557. Like?
Copy !req
558. Like, um...
Copy !req
559. Like I lied to you.
Copy !req
560. It's not
an old girlfriend.
Copy !req
561. It's my mother.
Copy !req
562. She died when I was a baby.
Copy !req
563. You...
You are so sweet.
Copy !req
564. I could get used to you.
Copy !req
565. I got to go.
Copy !req
566. Why?
Copy !req
567. Eddie would kill us
if he found out.
Copy !req
568. I'm not ready for that.
Copy !req
569. I'm not sure...
Copy !req
570. That I'm ready...
Copy !req
571. For you.
Copy !req
572. Sleep on it.
Copy !req
573. You'll get used to it.
Copy !req
574. The next day
was uncle Lou's birthday.
Copy !req
575. I took advantage of it
to get in closer.
Copy !req
576. I had a mission
to complete for Pop.
Copy !req
577. You know,
I don't remember
Copy !req
578. ever having a better ham
than this one.
Copy !req
579. Really.
Copy !req
580. Now I really see
the family resemblance.
Copy !req
581. He's just like
a Donan--
Copy !req
582. so polite and
handsome, too.
Copy !req
583. I don't think I can take it
with two Donans in one room.
Copy !req
584. I'm getting all woozy.
Copy !req
585. Well, listen,
before you pass out, baby,
Copy !req
586. how about getting us
some fresh coffee?
Copy !req
587. Oh, okay, Louie.
Copy !req
588. Ha ha ha ha ha!
Copy !req
589. She is something.
Copy !req
590. Yeah. She sure is.
Copy !req
591. I found her
slinging hash
Copy !req
592. at one of those
truck stops
Copy !req
593. out on the interstate.
Copy !req
594. She really filled that
little uniform out.
Copy !req
595. She was so fine.
Oh...
Copy !req
596. She poured me
a cup of coffee.
Copy !req
597. Best damn coffee
I've ever tasted.
Copy !req
598. She said
she made it herself.
Copy !req
599. That was the clincher.
Copy !req
600. Been together ever since.

jack shit.
Copy !req

bring in the mark.

well, fake my death.

789. You know the game.
Copy !req
790. But, uh...
Copy !req
791. What do you think?
Copy !req
792. I don't know, Lou.
I think that maybe
Copy !req
793. you just better find
one of your other guys.
Copy !req
794. They're in another
class altogether, man.
Copy !req
795. You can do it.
Copy !req
796. Hey, Joe...
Copy !req
797. You're all I got.
Copy !req
798. Why'd I leave it open?
Copy !req
799. Why didn't I just say no
right there?
Copy !req
800. 'Cause I remembered Pop
Copy !req
801. setting up
the same damn con
Copy !req
802. and telling me my part.
Copy !req
803. He'd never let me say no.
Copy !req
804. Okay
Copy !req
805. Take it easy.
Copy !req
806. Joe?
Copy !req
807. Diane?
Copy !req
808. What the hell is this?
Copy !req
809. You point a gun at me?
Copy !req
810. I thought Eddie
might come back.
Copy !req
811. Eddie's dead.
Copy !req
812. What?
Copy !req
813. Eddie's dead,
and Lou owns me.
Copy !req
814. What happened?
Copy !req
815. I don't know.
Copy !req
816. - What do you mean you don't know?
- I don't... know!
Copy !req
817. Something's going down.
I can feel it.
Copy !req
818. It's too easy.
Copy !req
819. I just got
to figure out what.
Copy !req
820. Figure what?
Copy !req
821. - Enough with the questions!
- We're in this together!
Copy !req
822. In what together?
Copy !req
823. - You know something I don't know?
- You're paranoid.
Copy !req
824. Maybe it's because you pointed
a gun at me!
Copy !req
825. - I was scared!
- You didn't look scared!
Copy !req
826. - Don't push me, Joe.
- Why did you point a gun at me?
Copy !req
827. You're scaring me.
Copy !req
828. I'm sorry, Diane.
Copy !req
829. Lou's got a con
straight out of my past.
Copy !req
830. I don't know whether
to face it or bolt.
Copy !req
831. Why not both?
Copy !req
832. What do you mean?
Copy !req
833. Take care of business
and then start over,
Copy !req
834. like me now
that Eddie's gone.
Copy !req
835. A new beginning.
Copy !req
836. Yeah.
Copy !req
837. A new beginning.
Copy !req
838. Leave the past to the people
who are stuck there.
Copy !req
839. [Airplane propeller starting]
Copy !req
840. [Footsteps]
Copy !req
841. [Woman]
Joey...
Copy !req
842. Ha ha ha ha!
Copy !req
843. Joey, where
are you going?
Copy !req
844. Ha ha ha!
Copy !req
845. Joey, I love you.
Copy !req
846. Joey...
Copy !req
847. I love you...
Copy !req
848. Joey...
Copy !req
849. Oh!
Agh!
Copy !req
850. Leave the past to people
who are stuck there.
Copy !req
851. When Lou filled me in
on the mystery of the cake,
Copy !req
852. I couldn't find it in my heart
to take it away from him.
Copy !req
853. I had this made
for your mother.
Copy !req
854. I was in love with her.
We were going to be married.
Copy !req
855. But I never had a chance to
give it to her because...
Copy !req
856. My brother...
Your father...
Copy !req
857. Well...well,
he was kind of stuck
Copy !req
858. between the two
of us, and...
Copy !req
859. And he stole her
away from me, so, uh...
Copy !req
860. God, I loved your mother.
Copy !req
861. More than anyone
I have ever known.
Copy !req
862. Certainly more than my brother.
Copy !req
863. I guess we were kind of
like Cain and Abel.
Copy !req
864. Anyway, I, uh,
want you to have this.
Copy !req
865. It, uh...
Copy !req
866. Well, maybe you'll
find some girl
Copy !req
867. as pretty as your mother was,
Copy !req
868. and you can
give it to her.
Copy !req
869. Huh?
Copy !req
870. I'll tell you what.
Copy !req
871. Why don't you
keep it for me?
Copy !req
872. Sure.
Copy !req
873. Anytime you want it.
Copy !req
874. You know...
Copy !req
875. If things had been different,
you could have been...
Copy !req
876. You could have
been my boy.
Copy !req
877. You know, when this
is all over...
Copy !req
878. Why don't you come
with Blanche and me?
Copy !req
879. We're going
down to Tahiti.
Copy !req
880. We'll get to know each other
a little better.
Copy !req
881. Sure. I'd like that.
Copy !req
882. Yeah.
I'd like that, too.
Copy !req
883. Sit down. Let's get
down to business.
Copy !req
884. Who's the mark?
Copy !req
885. A man named Dr. Lyme.
Copy !req
886. He deals
in hot diamonds, solo.
Copy !req
887. He was hipped to me by an
old friend of mine, Harry Shaw.
Copy !req
888. I've heard of Harry.
Copy !req
889. Yeah?
Copy !req
890. Harry was in on the game,
Copy !req
891. except his old heart
gave out on him, and--
Copy !req
892. anyway...
Copy !req
893. Here's the bait.
Copy !req
894. Watch. Wear that.
Copy !req
895. Some bread.
Copy !req
896. Here's the kicker.
Copy !req
897. - Wow. It's a beauty.
- Now, that is real, man.
Copy !req
898. Boy, that is beautiful.
Copy !req
899. How's your pool game?
Copy !req
900. -Not too good.
- Aha. Perfect. Perfect.
Copy !req
901. On the way over, I went through all
the reasons for turning back,
Copy !req
902. and I almost did.
Copy !req
903. But the moment I walked through those doors
and heard the crack of the cue balls,
Copy !req
904. I was committed.
Copy !req
905. The job was up to me,
just like the old days.
Copy !req
906. Like it or not,
I was home.
Copy !req
907. Billiards.
Copy !req
908. $1,000.
Copy !req
909. Is that per game
or per point?
Copy !req
910. - Whatever.
- Per point would be fine.
Copy !req
911. - 25 to win?
- Sure.
Copy !req
912. I prefer playing on this table,
if that's all right with you.
Copy !req
913. And, uh,
why is that?
Copy !req
914. A little more private,
Copy !req
915. it's the right temperature,
Copy !req
916. and...
Copy !req
917. It's a corsair.
Copy !req
918. Sausage, set it up.
Copy !req
919. One of the rare occasions
Copy !req
920. in which 1...Plus 1...
Copy !req
921. Equals 1.
Copy !req
922. Shall we lag?
Copy !req
923. Sure.
Copy !req
924. I didn't catch
your name, Mr., uh...
Copy !req
925. Joe.
Copy !req
926. My pleasure, Mr. Joe.
Copy !req
927. The name's Morgan Gripp.
Copy !req
928. But people call me Fats.
Copy !req
929. This was Sam's game.
Copy !req
930. Samuel Langhorne Clemens.
Copy !req
931. You know, Mark Twain.
Copy !req
932. The genius behind Huck Finn,
Copy !req
933. Tom Sawyer,
Copy !req
934. a personal favorite of mine--
Copy !req
935. a Connecticut Yankee
in King Arthur's court.
Copy !req
936. He used to play whenever
he had writer's block.
Copy !req
937. Said it was
good for the brain.
Copy !req
938. I don't think I've seen you
around here before.
Copy !req
939. No. I'm not
from around here.
Copy !req
940. That makes sense.
Copy !req
941. Welcome to paradise, Mr. Joe.
Copy !req
942. It's all geometry, really--
Copy !req
943. isosceles triangles,
Copy !req
944. Pentagons,
Copy !req
945. Octagons,
Copy !req
946. et cetera,
et cetera.
Copy !req
947. But that, that, my friend...
Copy !req
948. Is poetry.
Copy !req
949. Let's see, that's...
Copy !req
950. 24
Copy !req
951. 1 more would be 25.
Copy !req
952. Ah-choo!
Copy !req
953. Your turn now, Mr. Joe.
Copy !req
954. Very nice.
Copy !req
955. Whoo.
Copy !req
956. Tough break.
Copy !req
957. Must have been
the pressure.
Copy !req
958. You bring a good man
to his knees, you know?
Copy !req
959. If there were
a fat lady in here,
Copy !req
960. I think she'd be
clearing her throat.
Copy !req
961. Right...
Copy !req
962. About...
Copy !req
963. Now.
Copy !req
964. Score that...
Copy !req
965. 25 to 1.
Copy !req
966. Let's see.
At a thousand a point,
Copy !req
967. that would be, uh...
Copy !req
968. Oh, yes,
Copy !req
969. $24,000 you owe me,
Mr. Joe.
Copy !req
970. I, um...
Copy !req
971. I, uh, I don't have it.
Copy !req
972. Well, this adds a new wrinkle
to our relationship.
Copy !req
973. Ahem.
I'm good for it.
Copy !req
974. A classic line.
However, it just won't do.
Copy !req
975. Uh, listen, uh, here...
Copy !req
976. It's worth 25,000 easy.
Copy !req
977. I'm not a harlequin, Joe.
Copy !req
978. Look at it.
Copy !req
979. Those are real diamonds.
Copy !req
980. Real diamonds.
Copy !req
981. Fortunately, I have a way
to check this out.
Copy !req
982. If it isn't worth
what you claim,
Copy !req
983. then I'm afraid you're not
going to be worth much.
Copy !req
984. I think you should join
these two gentlemen now.
Copy !req
985. It was nice...
Copy !req
986. Playing with you.
Copy !req
987. [Chuckles]
Copy !req
988. Goddamn.
Copy !req
989. I'm good.
Copy !req
990. [Mechanical buzzing]
Copy !req
991. I see you're fond
of fine jewelry.
Copy !req
992. This is an exquisite watch.
Copy !req
993. How did you happen
to acquire it?
Copy !req
994. Would you believe I won that
in a card game?
Copy !req
995. Took it off a guy by the
name of Harry Shaw.
Copy !req
996. Harry Shaw?
My good friend Harry?
Copy !req
997. Yes, I just spoke
with him last week.
Copy !req
998. Really?
Copy !req
999. That's interesting. He's been dead
for over a year.
Copy !req
1000. Major faux pas indeed.
Copy !req
1001. Would you like a drink,
Mr...
Copy !req
1002. Thompson.
Copy !req
1003. Joe Thompson. Yeah, I think
I could use a drink.
Copy !req
1004. Davida, a whiskey
for Mr. Thompson
Copy !req
1005. and a small espresso
with balva for me, please.
Copy !req
1006. Your man Mr. Gripp, he's a hell
of a billiards player.
Copy !req
1007. Yes, a true virtuoso
of the game.
Copy !req
1008. I fear that you didn't give him
quite a fair challenge.
Copy !req
1009. Didn't I?
Copy !req
1010. So, what can I do for you,
Mr. Thompson?
Copy !req
1011. Well, for starters...
Copy !req
1012. Take a look at that.
Copy !req
1013. Let me see that diamond.
Copy !req
1014. "D"...
Copy !req
1015. Flawless.
Copy !req
1016. Yep.
5 carats.
Copy !req
1017. Did you know that in many
lands it is believed
Copy !req
1018. that a spirit
lives inside the diamond.
Copy !req
1019. That is why it has such...
Copy !req
1020. Sparkle.
Copy !req
1021. There are a lot more spirits
where that one came from.
Copy !req
1022. 29 more, to be exact.
Copy !req
1023. I'm listening,
Mr. Thompson.
Copy !req
1024. After our little card game,
Copy !req
1025. Harry and I got to be
pretty good friends.
Copy !req
1026. He said if I ever fell
into anything big,
Copy !req
1027. you were the man to see.
Copy !req
1028. A Texan I'd done
some business with,
Copy !req
1029. he's got some ice just...
Way too hot for him.
Copy !req
1030. A Texan?
Copy !req
1031. I think I can get
all 30 for 2.
Copy !req
1032. $2 million is a tidy sum.
Copy !req
1033. And what, pray tell,
Copy !req
1034. will you gain from this,
Mr. Thompson?
Copy !req
1035. Whatever you think
is fair.
Copy !req
1036. Joie de vivre.
Copy !req
1037. I haven't seen quality
like this for... ages.
Copy !req
1038. 60 grand a carat.
Copy !req
1039. That's $9 million worth
for the price of 2.
Copy !req
1040. You have seduced me.
Copy !req
1041. You have a deal.
Copy !req
1042. Shake.
Copy !req
1043. [Buzz]
Copy !req
1044. How did you know I wasn't
going to snip off your fingers?
Copy !req
1045. I didn't.
Copy !req
1046. Never cross the line, Joe.
Copy !req
1047. Never cross the line.
Copy !req
1048. What do you think?
Copy !req
1049. It's inspiring.
Copy !req
1050. Yeah?
Copy !req
1051. Well, don't get
too used to it,
Copy !req
1052. 'cause the minute we get up the coast,
it's coming off...
Copy !req
1053. Fast.
Copy !req
1054. Not fast enough.
Copy !req
1055. First there's the job.
Copy !req
1056. Second thoughts?
Copy !req
1057. I was in this con
once before.
Copy !req
1058. It backfired...
Copy !req
1059. Bad.
Copy !req
1060. But Lou's counting on you.
Copy !req
1061. Yeah, there's Lou,
Copy !req
1062. there's a second chance
at the con,
Copy !req
1063. there's a whole mess of things
you don't know anything about
Copy !req
1064. pushing me into this job.
Copy !req
1065. Then there's you.
Copy !req
1066. I'm falling in love
with you.
Copy !req
1067. You better be careful
throwing around words like that.
Copy !req
1068. Why?
Copy !req
1069. I might want you to take
me away right now.
Copy !req
1070. I will.
Copy !req
1071. In the morning.
Copy !req
1072. Let's go now.
Copy !req
1073. Mmm.
You're tempting me.
Copy !req
1074. Let's go.
Copy !req
1075. In the morning.
Copy !req
1076. I'm in too far now
to fold.
Copy !req
1077. I love you, Joe.
Copy !req
1078. I'll see you soon.
Copy !req
1079. [Door closes]
Copy !req
1080. Hello.
Copy !req
1081. - Hello.
- Haven't seen you around for a while.
Copy !req
1082. - What have you been up to?
- Not much.
Copy !req
1083. Would you like some coffee
and doughnuts-- on the house?
Copy !req
1084. Maybe some other time.
Copy !req
1085. Okay.
Well, stop by anytime.
Copy !req
1086. - Hey, Patsy.
- Hey, Joe.
Copy !req
1087. How you doing?
Copy !req
1088. I'm a little nervous.
Copy !req
1089. It's a big night tonight.
Copy !req
1090. Are you ready?
Copy !req
1091. Yeah.
Of course I'm ready.
Copy !req
1092. Good. Let's go.
Copy !req
1093. What is it with her anyway?
Copy !req
1094. Holly?
The doughnut girl?
Copy !req
1095. Between you and me,
I think she's, uh,
Copy !req
1096. got a little bit of
a crush on you.
Copy !req
1097. So you gotta do me a favor.
Copy !req
1098. Stay away from her, okay?
Copy !req
1099. I really like her.
Copy !req
1100. I mean...
Copy !req
1101. They don't come
any sweeter than that.
Copy !req
1102. - Sure, Patsy.
- Thanks, Joe.
Copy !req
1103. The hook was in.
Copy !req
1104. Dr. Lyme was ripe
for the taking.
Copy !req
1105. It was the biggest job
of my life,
Copy !req
1106. and all I could think about
was getting it over with
Copy !req
1107. and then getting out.
Copy !req
1108. Okay, Joe,
you pick 'em.
Copy !req
1109. Ha ha ha ha!
Copy !req
1110. First-rate, kid.
First-rate.
Copy !req
1111. Now, these were a gift
from old Harry Shaw.
Copy !req
1112. Now, I don't want
to let him down.
Copy !req
1113. Why don't we sell them
and forget the whole thing?
Copy !req
1114. Who asked you? Be quiet and pay
attention. This is important.
Copy !req
1115. You have to show money
to make money.
Copy !req
1116. And tonight's haul, gentlemen,
is $2 million dollars.
Copy !req
1117. Yeah. I like
the sound of that.
Copy !req
1118. - Me, too.
- Joe hooked the claw,
Copy !req
1119. now we're going to reel him in
and throw him in the frying pan.
Copy !req
1120. Everything okay
at your end, Patsy?
Copy !req
1121. - I'm all set, Lou.
- After the first shot,
Copy !req
1122. you have to be on the scene.
You'll cover our behinds.
Copy !req
1123. Everybody takes
their cue from Joe.
Copy !req
1124. Joe, as soon as you get
your hands on that cash,
Copy !req
1125. you have to move fast.
Copy !req
1126. If you don't kill me,
Dr. Lyme sure as hell will.
Copy !req
1127. Yeah.
Copy !req
1128. - Okay, kid?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1129. Okay.
Let's drink.
Copy !req
1130. My last con.
Copy !req
1131. Couldn't believe I was ready
to trade in the rackets
Copy !req
1132. for a chance with Diane.
Copy !req
1133. I guess somehow I felt I was
doing it for Pop, also.
Copy !req
1134. Making a break
from the lifestyle
Copy !req
1135. that had chased us
all over the country
Copy !req
1136. and sucked up
all our time together.
Copy !req
1137. Wealth...
Copy !req
1138. Power...
Copy !req
1139. God.
Copy !req
1140. They all have a distinct...
[Sniff]
Copy !req
1141. Aroma.
Copy !req
1142. But none as sweet
as death.
Copy !req
1143. I hope your cowboy comes through
for you, Mr. Thompson.
Copy !req
1144. I work for you.
Copy !req
1145. If it works for him,
that's just icing on the cake.
Copy !req
1146. You humor me with your
ingratiating enthusiasm.
Copy !req
1147. For the sake of argument,
Copy !req
1148. if by chance
something did go wrong,
Copy !req
1149. it would be...
Copy !req
1150. Because I wanted it
that way.
Copy !req
1151. Harry.
Copy !req
1152. We want to
check them out.
Copy !req
1153. Hell, yes, I'll show 'em
a couple.
Copy !req
1154. You come and pick 'em.
Copy !req
1155. Nice.
Copy !req
1156. I want those stones back.
Pronto.
Copy !req
1157. Beautiful.
Copy !req
1158. Beautiful.
Beautiful.
Copy !req
1159. And the others.
Copy !req
1160. We want to see
the others.
Copy !req
1161. Ho ho.
Copy !req
1162. Come on. Let's just make this simple,
shall we, now?
Copy !req
1163. Show me the money.
Copy !req
1164. I show you
the diamonds.
Copy !req
1165. - Easy, huh?
- You'll see the money
Copy !req
1166. when we check out
the rest of the diamonds.
Copy !req
1167. Bullcrap
Bullcrap, man!
Copy !req
1168. This game is off.
Give me my diamonds back, come on.
Copy !req
1169. Give me my goddamn diamonds
back, now!
Copy !req
1170. Come on!
What the hell are you doing?
Copy !req
1171. Give them to me.
I know what I'm doing.
Copy !req
1172. You want these back, huh?
Copy !req
1173. Damn right, I want them back!
Copy !req
1174. I think I'll just hold on to them
for all the trouble you put us through.
Copy !req
1175. You son of a bitch!
Copy !req
1176. What the hell are you trying to
pull here, Thompson? Goddamn you!
Copy !req
1177. I told you that I would deliver,
and I did deliver now--
Copy !req
1178. Mr. Thompson.
Copy !req
1179. Open it.
Copy !req
1180. All right.
Here's the deal.
Copy !req
1181. I hold onto the money
until my boss tells me
Copy !req
1182. all the goods are undamaged.
Copy !req
1183. When he gives me the sign,
you get paid.
Copy !req
1184. All right.
Come and get 'em.
Copy !req
1185. Candy from a baby.
Copy !req
1186. Anything goes wrong...
Copy !req
1187. Kill them all.
Copy !req
1188. He's wired!
It's a setup!
Copy !req
1189. Do it. Do it.
Copy !req
1190. Aah!
Copy !req
1191. No!
Copy !req
1192. Hold it! FBI!
Copy !req
1193. Joe, go down!
Copy !req
1194. Jesus!
Copy !req
1195. Get my bloody money!
Copy !req
1196. Aah!
[Motor whirs]
Copy !req
1197. When things fall apart is when people
stagger to whatever's familiar.
Copy !req
1198. The same way a bull charges
at a red cape
Copy !req
1199. after being stabbed
a dozen times or so.
Copy !req
1200. Wait!
Copy !req
1201. I'm sorry, Joe.
Copy !req
1202. Diane!
Copy !req
1203. Played him
like a pro, doll.
Copy !req
1204. Shut up!
Copy !req
1205. Long time no see, Joe.
Copy !req
1206. Glad you came.
Copy !req
1207. Hello, Joe.
Copy !req
1208. What do you know?
Copy !req
1209. Pop?
Copy !req
1210. Pete, get the cake.
Copy !req
1211. You did good, Joe.
Copy !req
1212. Aha!
Copy !req
1213. Ah!
My god!
Copy !req
1214. My, my, my.
Copy !req
1215. Whoo!
Copy !req
1216. Frank...
Copy !req
1217. There's your taste.
Copy !req
1218. Good con. See you
on the next trip
Copy !req
1219. Call me anytime.
Copy !req
1220. Pete...
Copy !req
1221. It's always a pleasure
working with you.
Copy !req
1222. The pleasure's
mine, Mikey.
Copy !req
1223. Ha ha!
See you soon.
Copy !req
1224. - Real good, Joe.
- And you, babe.
Copy !req
1225. Here's your cut.
Copy !req
1226. I don't want the money.
Copy !req
1227. Strictly business, baby.
Copy !req
1228. Take it... and go.
Copy !req
1229. The rest...
Copy !req
1230. Is ours.
Copy !req
1231. Your brother's dead.
Copy !req
1232. Yeah?
Copy !req
1233. Ha.
Copy !req
1234. Well, well, well,
well, well.
Copy !req
1235. Why?
Copy !req
1236. Well, I'm sorry, Joe.
I couldn't fill you in.
Copy !req
1237. You see, this is the only way
it could work.
Copy !req
1238. I did what I had to do.
Copy !req
1239. It was just another mark.
Copy !req
1240. You pinpoint a mark,
Copy !req
1241. you take him
for everything he has...
Copy !req
1242. Any way you can.
Copy !req
1243. We just made the biggest score
of our lives, kid.
Copy !req
1244. $2 fucking million dollars, son.
Copy !req
1245. Don't you ever
call me that.
Copy !req
1246. Hey, what the hell is that?
Copy !req
1247. [Music plays]
Copy !req
1248. Hey, now, come on. Don't point
that goddamn thing at me!
Copy !req
1249. Joe, just stop.
Copy !req
1250. Just stop and think
for a minute.
Copy !req
1251. Isn't this the best goddamn con
you've ever seen in your life?
Copy !req
1252. I mean, with your own eyes?
Copy !req
1253. It's up there, man!
It was something special.
Copy !req
1254. We did it together, kid.
We did it, man!
Copy !req
1255. What'd you think
of Diane, huh?
Copy !req
1256. Wasn't that a nice touch?
Copy !req
1257. I mean, she looked so much
like your mother.
Copy !req
1258. Wow!
Copy !req
1259. I mean, it all just fell into place
it was, like, it was magic.
Copy !req
1260. There was no turning around.
Copy !req
1261. He deserved what he got.
Every goddamn thing he got.
Copy !req
1262. He took your mother
away from you, man!
Copy !req
1263. Jesus!
Copy !req
1264. She didn't die. She didn't die
when you were born.
Copy !req
1265. He killed her!
Copy !req
1266. He killed her with
one of his goddamn cons!
Copy !req
1267. Damn near killed me, too.
Copy !req
1268. It's you and me now, Joe.
Copy !req
1269. Come on!
It's you and me.
Copy !req
1270. Us against them.
Put the goddamn gun down!
Copy !req
1271. Put it down.
Please!
Copy !req
1272. Are they blanks?
Or are they real?
Copy !req
1273. Hell...
Copy !req
1274. I love you, son.
Copy !req
1275. Aah!
Goddamn!
Copy !req
1276. Oh!
Copy !req
1277. God... Damn it!
Copy !req
1278. Most people
never feel the strings
Copy !req
1279. that gently tug them
day in and day out.
Copy !req
1280. Mine had been jerked
every which way
Copy !req
1281. before I cut 'em loose
and left a tangled mess
Copy !req
1282. going around in circles
with my Pop,
Copy !req
1283. and all that cash
I wanted no part of.
Copy !req
1284. It was a colorful world
I was walking away from,
Copy !req
1285. but nothing in it
was real.
Copy !req
1286. Not my Pop, not the bastards
who'd help dupe me,
Copy !req
1287. not Diane,
who almost broke my heart.
Copy !req
1288. All I took from them
were memories--
Copy !req
1289. images, really.
Copy !req
1290. They're worth more than
any take from any con.
Copy !req
1291. They keep me honest.
Copy !req
