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 thisCopy !req
4. can make a lot of money
from those who don't.Copy !req
5. But any small-time grifterCopy !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 soulCopy !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 All-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 workCopy !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 himCopy !req
76. - Pop!
- Come on, Joe, Joe, Joe.Copy !req
77. Come on, Joe.
Got to go.Copy !req
78. I didn't do it!
I had the blanks!Copy !req
79. Pop!Copy !req
80. We'd always been a team.Copy !req
81. Pop called the shots,
and I carried the ball.Copy !req
82. Without him, I went numb.Copy !req
83. We're burying your father
in Potter's field.Copy !req
84. He's already in the box.Copy !req
85. Wouldn't want the cops
snooping, would we?Copy !req
86. I remember loading blanks.Copy !req
87. There's no way I would ever
make a mistake like that!Copy !req
88. You were in charge
of the guns.Copy !req
89. There's no wayCopy !req
90. I would make
a mistake like that.Copy !req
91. Take it.Copy !req
92. Take a look.Copy !req
93. Go on.Copy !req
94. It's Huey's gun.Copy !req
95. It's got the blanks.Copy !req
96. God...damn.Copy !req
97. Tell me this is a dream
I'm gonna wake up from.Copy !req
98. I feel real bad, Joey.Copy !req
99. Maybe I should have
double-checked the chambers.Copy !req
100. Sorry.Copy !req
101. Here's your cut.Copy !req
102. Got to get out of town,
set yourself up.Copy !req
103. Fast, like
the rest of us.Copy !req
104. Pete!Copy !req
105. Pete!Copy !req
106. Pete, did you see
the woman on my--Copy !req
107. What was that?Copy !req
108. I almost forgot.Copy !req
109. This is all your father
had on him.Copy !req
110. See ya.Copy !req
111. Bus 59 leaving Gate 5
in 15 minutes.Copy !req
112. Bus 59 leaving gate 5...Copy !req
113. I told myself the woman at
the grave wasn't really there.Copy !req
114. My scattered mind had
just dredged up a memory.Copy !req
115. "Leave the past to them
who's stuck there,"Copy !req
116. is what Pop
would've told me.Copy !req
117. "There ain't no money
in a memory."Copy !req
118. The man was never
short on advice.Copy !req
119. With his last breath, he was still
telling me what to do.Copy !req
120. He hadn't said
what the cake was,Copy !req
121. but his address book
said where to start looking--Copy !req
122. out West, where
his brother Lou would be.Copy !req
123. I always remembered
being alone.Copy !req
124. Pop and I spent
a lot of time on busesCopy !req
125. moving from town to town,Copy !req
126. waiting for
the heat to pass.Copy !req
127. Pop was the teacher.
I was the student.Copy !req
128. That was the extent
of our relationship.Copy !req
129. So it was a surprise to meCopy !req
130. when I found the letter
he wrote to his brother Lou--Copy !req
131. the brother I never
even knew he had.Copy !req
132. Most of it was about
how much Pop hated him.Copy !req
133. Something had gone down
between the two brothers.Copy !req
134. Looked like a woman
was the cause of it.Copy !req
135. But the real shock was that
he said he was proud of meCopy !req
136. and that he loved me.Copy !req
137. Now, that's not the Pop
that I remembered.Copy !req
138. Maybe it was the way
he used to beCopy !req
139. before all he cared about
was turning a buck.Copy !req
140. Maybe it was Lou
who had changed him.Copy !req
141. That's what
I wanted to believe--Copy !req
142. the big secret
I swore I'd uncover.Copy !req
143. The coast was alive, but I
had no time for the sights.Copy !req
144. I was looking for something
to tip me off,Copy !req
145. a break in the routine,Copy !req
146. a place to start the hunt.Copy !req
147. - Appreciate it.
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
148. What it is, my man.Copy !req
149. - What it is.
- Hey, how you doing?Copy !req
150. Do you have
a nice hot one?Copy !req
151. Salted or unsalted?Copy !req
152. I don't care...
Long as it's lucky.Copy !req
153. Hope that's
hot enough for you.Copy !req
154. So do I.
Ah, so do I.Copy !req
155. I hope that
we get there in time.Copy !req
156. Hello.
Can I help you?Copy !req
157. Um...coffee, please.Copy !req
158. - Regular or decaf?
- Regular.Copy !req
159. Hey...hey.Copy !req
160. 75 cents for the coffee, please.Copy !req
161. Here you go.
Keep it.Copy !req
162. You come here often?Copy !req
163. No, I don't.
It's the first time.Copy !req
164. Why do you ask?Copy !req
165. I don't know.Copy !req
166. Would you like
a nice maple spiral doughnutCopy !req
167. to go with your coffee?
They're heavenly.Copy !req
168. Maybe some other time.
Thanks.Copy !req
169. Hey, kid.
What's your name?Copy !req
170. Mitch.Copy !req
171. Want to make
an easy 20 bucks, Mitch?Copy !req
172. For what?Copy !req
173. I'm looking for Lou Donan.Copy !req
174. Who's asking?Copy !req
175. His nephew.Copy !req
176. Pick a card.Copy !req
177. I don't think so.Copy !req
178. You don't think so. Ha.Copy !req
179. That's not very sociable behavior.
Go on, pick a card.Copy !req
180. Look, I'm a little
busy right now.Copy !req
181. Why don't you take your game
someplace else.Copy !req
182. Busy at the market.Copy !req
183. Tell you what.Copy !req
184. If it's a high card,
I'll tell you who I am,Copy !req
185. and if it's a low card,
I'll tell you who you are.Copy !req
186. Is that a deal?Copy !req
187. Sure.Copy !req
188. Joker.Copy !req
189. Joker.Copy !req
190. Hallelujah.Copy !req
191. Praise the lord.Copy !req
192. It's a hell of
a card trick.Copy !req
193. Why don't you get lost?Copy !req
194. So you're
Lou's nephew, huh?Copy !req
195. - Yeah, that's right.
- Yeah, that's right.Copy !req
196. I didn't know
Lou had a nephew.Copy !req
197. Well, you know it now.Copy !req
198. Come on. Let's take
a walk, friend.Copy !req
199. Get comfortable.Copy !req
200. Damn, I love
watching people.Copy !req
201. Damn! Business really booming
out there, huh?Copy !req
202. Look at all those happy people.
Ha ha ha!Copy !req
203. You can learn a lot from...Copy !req
204. Just watching people.Copy !req
205. So...God, it's been...Copy !req
206. 30, 30 some-odd yearsCopy !req
207. since I've...
seen my nephew.Copy !req
208. What's the matter,
cat got your fuckin' tongue?Copy !req
209. All this time, I...Copy !req
210. I didn't even know
I had an uncle.Copy !req
211. Well, then there's
a lot you don't know.Copy !req
212. What did you want to
see me about, Joe?Copy !req
213. Well, I, uh...Copy !req
214. I've got some bad news
about my father.Copy !req
215. - He's, um...
- He's dead.Copy !req
216. Yes, I know.
Oh...Copy !req
217. It must be
kind of a shock, huh?Copy !req
218. Looks like you've
just seen a ghost, friend.Copy !req
219. Eddie, will you put
the gun down, please,Copy !req
220. and, uh, get Joe
a glass of water?Copy !req
221. Yeah?Copy !req
222. Yeah.Copy !req
223. Yeah.Copy !req
224. You're down.Copy !req
225. All right.Copy !req
226. Good luck.Copy !req
227. Bye-bye.Copy !req
228. So...how'd you find me?Copy !req
229. Um... I had to go through some
of my father's stuff.Copy !req
230. Your name was in
his address book,Copy !req
231. so I hopped on a bus
to come out and see you.Copy !req
232. Ah.Copy !req
233. How did you know
about him?Copy !req
234. Friend told me.Copy !req
235. Didn't know much.
Said that, uh...Copy !req
236. Mike had been killed
in some kind of con.Copy !req
237. Maybe you can fill me in.
What happened?Copy !req
238. I don't really
know what happened.Copy !req
239. He was off
doing his own thing.Copy !req
240. Pop always had a few
irons of his own in the fire.Copy !req
241. I just, uh...Copy !req
242. I wished I could
have been there, you know?Copy !req
243. Mike, Mike, Mike.
Never learned.Copy !req
244. Even as kids, he was always
going out on his own,Copy !req
245. getting his hands dirty.Copy !req
246. Tsk.Copy !req
247. - Hell, I'm sorry, Joe.
- Yeah, well, thanks.Copy !req
248. We were, uh...
We were a team.Copy !req
249. There's not really much left
back there for me now.Copy !req
250. Eddie, would you
get that, please?Copy !req
251. Yeah.Copy !req
252. Depends. Who's calling?Copy !req
253. Yeah. The doctor's in.Copy !req
254. How you fixed
for bread?Copy !req
255. - I'm all right.
- You got a place to crash?Copy !req
256. Yeah, I got a...
Motel.Copy !req
257. It's just
up the road.Copy !req
258. Nice?Copy !req
259. It's comfortable.Copy !req
260. By god.Copy !req
261. Listen, Joe, uh...Copy !req
262. Why don't you go out
with Eddie tonight, huh?Copy !req
263. All right.Copy !req
264. Yeah. Do a little
bar hopping.Copy !req
265. He'll show you around.Copy !req
266. What do you think?Copy !req
267. Uh, yeah.
That sounds like a lot of fun...Copy !req
268. Uncle Lou.Copy !req
269. Uncle Lou?Copy !req
270. Ho ho ho ho.
Uncle Lou.Copy !req
271. I like it!
I like it!Copy !req
272. First-rate.Copy !req
273. It's really good

274. Yeah. Ha ha ha.Copy !req
275. Lord, I'm free!Copy !req
276. How long you been

279. Pretty nifty bookie operation
he's got going there.Copy !req
280. I set that up.Copy !req
281. Wow.Copy !req
282. That was a real tough one
for me to spot.Copy !req
283. Well, I guess I'm just a real
shrewd guy, huh?Copy !req
284. Yeah, I guess you are.Copy !req
285. You and Lou run
the whole market?Copy !req
286. You know, for a guy that's
just come into town,Copy !req
287. you're sure asking
an awful lot of questions.Copy !req
288. - What are we doing?
- My girl's coming along.Copy !req
289. You don't mind,
do you, friend?Copy !req
290. I don't mind.Copy !req
291. Diane, this is Joe.
Joe, this is Diane.Copy !req
292. Pleased to meet you, Joe.Copy !req
293. Pleased to meet you, Diane.Copy !req
294. I--I'm kind of
feeling all tongue-tied.Copy !req
295. I just don't know what to--
I wanted to--Copy !req
296. aw, shucks.

can handle that, friend?Copy !req
303. Just tell me
what I have to do.Copy !req
304. You pick up
the dropping.Copy !req
305. It looked like
I had to pay my duesCopy !req
306. by wilding with
uncle Lou's flunky.Copy !req
307. This fucking fucker's fucked!Copy !req
308. Well, at least he was
a lively fellow.Copy !req
309. Okay., what'll
you have?Copy !req
310. I'd like a bottle
of your best champagne.Copy !req
311. We only have shots
and beer, honey.Copy !req
312. Well, I'll have two shots
of your finest whiskey.Copy !req
313. "Shape the con, or it'll shape you,"
Pop would say.Copy !req
314. Wise words my new friend
Eddie never learned.Copy !req
315. He was the type
of bad-ass bluff manCopy !req
316. that was stuck on the high
you get from the con,Copy !req
317. - and that's bad news.
- Well, lovebirds, here you go.Copy !req

- Sure, right back there, honey.Copy !req
332. Maybe you left it
at the restaurant.Copy !req
333. No, I'm sure I had
it in here.Copy !req
334. Did you lose something?Copy !req
335. No, we're fine.Copy !req
336. Maybe I did leave it
in the restaurant.Copy !req
337. I just said that before.
What's the matter?Copy !req
338. Fuck, honey!Copy !req
339. Listen...Copy !req
340. My wife,

350. And, uh...Copy !req
351. I'll give you $500.Copy !req
352. - Oh... sure.

353. Where'd you find that?Copy !req
354. I found it on the floor
in the phone booth.Copy !req
355. That's my bracelet.
I lost it.Copy !req
356. No, it's not.Copy !req
357. I'll give you $50
for that bracelet.Copy !req
358. $50 bucks for this?Copy !req
359. All right, $100?Copy !req

392. There's more to life

393. isn't there, Diane?Copy !req
394. Maybe we're both
just running around in circles...Copy !req
395. And just
happen to touch.Copy !req
396. The sun and the moon
do that.Copy !req
397. They call it

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

616. All fucking
summer long, sugar.Copy !req
617. All summer long.Copy !req
618. What's your problem, boy?Copy !req
619. I thought
we were settled.Copy !req
620. We are with that, Baby.Copy !req
621. There's nothing
to worry about.Copy !req
622. What the hell you
bothering me for?Copy !req
623. The Baby's a little
cranky tonight, huh?Copy !req
624. Yeah. I don't dig looking
at your ugly face.Copy !req
625. Now your partner,Copy !req
626. he was a cool dude.Copy !req
627. Cool enough to get The Baby
to burp up $1,500?Copy !req
628. I didn't pay him
jack shit.Copy !req
629. What are you talking about?
You cleared your debt.Copy !req
630. He told me
all I had to doCopy !req
631. was walk outside with him
and shake his hand,Copy !req
632. and I was even.Copy !req
633. Are you telling me that
was his fucking money?Copy !req
634. Somebody's after your job, boy.Copy !req

705. Like a fucking statue!
Pick a card!Copy !req
706. Are you cracking up?
What is it?Copy !req
707. - What the hell?
- Pick the fucking card!Copy !req
708. Eddie, I don't know what
the hell's gotten into you.Copy !req
709. Listen, Eddie,
In a couple of days,Copy !req
710. you and I are going

738. Joe, come here.Copy !req
739. God damn it,

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