1. Most people
like to thinkCopy !req
2. they have some degree
of control over their lives.Copy !req
3. The truth is,Copy !req
4. we're all subject
to the influence of others.Copy !req
5. Those who appreciate thisCopy !req
6. can make a lot of money
from those who don't.Copy !req
7. But any small-time grifterCopy !req
8. who ever dealt off
the bottom of a deck
can tell you that.Copy !req
9. I can tell you about
the price one pays
for peddling confidence,Copy !req
10. how every Mark you fleece
takes away another
piece of your soulCopy !req
11. and what happens
when you try to
pick up the pieces.Copy !req
12. I'm risking
50 grand here!Copy !req
13. 50 grand
for $500,000 worth.Copy !req
14. You having
second thoughts?Copy !req
15. You give me

19. Hey.Copy !req
20. I'm a big shot, see?Copy !req
21. I can chance it.Copy !req
22. You're the man.Copy !req
23. The beginning of the end
started out normally enough.Copy !req
24. I was in the middle
of a deal,Copy !req
25. trustworthy as ever.Copy !req
26. My pop used to say
I was the best loyalty
man he'd ever seen.Copy !req
27. I played
the all-American boy.Copy !req
28. People thought they could
pull the wool over my eyes.Copy !req
29. Well, that was my con,
and it never failed.Copy !req
30. Ahem. Let's see it.Copy !req
31. Give me a break,
will ya?Copy !req
32. Here. O.K.?Copy !req
33. O.k.?Copy !req
34. Yo!Copy !req

37. tell him
I want a taste.Copy !req
38. What, what?Copy !req
39. He wants a taste.Copy !req
40. Sure, he does.Copy !req

last dollar!Copy !req
62. Yo!Copy !req
63. You shot him!Copy !req
64. What?Copy !req
65. He's really been shot.Copy !req
66. There's real bullets
in here, man.Copy !req
67. I had the blanks.Copy !req
68. I had the b—
I had the—Copy !req
69. I had the blanks
in my gun!Copy !req
70. What the hell
are you trying
to pull, Joe?Copy !req
71. Get that gun.Copy !req
72. Joe.Copy !req
73. Son... get the cake.Copy !req
74. My brother took the cake.Copy !req
75. My brother
took the cake.Copy !req
76. Your brother?Copy !req
77. You go get it.Copy !req
78. Bring it, bring it,
bring it, bring it.Copy !req
79. Go get it for me.Copy !req
80. Pop!Copy !req
81. Pop?Copy !req
82. Pop!
Come on,
let's go.Copy !req
83. Pop! come on, Joe,
Joe, Joe.Copy !req
84. Come on, Joe.
Got to go.Copy !req
85. I didn't do it!
I had the blanks!Copy !req
86. Pop!Copy !req
87. We'd always been a team.Copy !req
88. Pop called the shots,
and I carried the ball.Copy !req
89. Without him, I went numb.Copy !req
90. We're burying your father
in Potter's field.Copy !req
91. He's already
in the box.Copy !req
92. Wouldn't want the cops
snooping, would we?Copy !req
93. I remember loading blanks.Copy !req
94. There's no way
I would ever make
a mistake like that!Copy !req
95. You were in charge
of the guns.Copy !req
96. There's no wayCopy !req
97. I would make
a mistake like that.Copy !req
98. Take it.Copy !req
99. Take a look.Copy !req
100. Go on.Copy !req
101. It's huey's gun.Copy !req
102. It's got
the blanks.Copy !req
103. God...Copy !req
104. Damn.Copy !req
105. Tell me this is a dream
I'm gonna wake up from.Copy !req
106. I feel real bad,
Joey.Copy !req
107. Maybe I should have
double-checked
the chambers.Copy !req
108. Sorry.Copy !req
109. Here's your cut.Copy !req
110. Got to get out of town,
set yourself up.Copy !req
111. Fast, like
the rest of US.Copy !req
112. Pete!Copy !req
113. Pete!Copy !req
114. Pete, did you
see the woman on my—Copy !req
115. what was that?Copy !req
116. I almost forgot.Copy !req
117. This is all your father
had on him.Copy !req
118. See ya.Copy !req
119. Bus 59 leaving gate 5
in 15 minutes.Copy !req
120. Bus 59 leaving gate 5...Copy !req
121. I told myself
the woman at the grave
wasn't really there,Copy !req
122. my scattered mind had
just dredged up a memory.Copy !req
123. "Leave the past to them
who's stuck there,"Copy !req
124. is what pop
would've told me.Copy !req
125. "There ain't no money
in a memory."Copy !req
126. The man was never
short on advice.Copy !req
127. With his last breath,Copy !req
128. he was still
telling me what to do.Copy !req
129. He hadn't said
what the cake was,Copy !req
130. but his address book
said where to start looking—Copy !req
131. out west, where
his brother Lou would be.Copy !req
132. I always remembered
being alone.Copy !req
133. Pop and I spent
a lot of time on busesCopy !req
134. moving from town to town,Copy !req
135. waiting for
the heat to pass.Copy !req
136. Pop was the teacher.
I was the student.Copy !req
137. That was our relationship.Copy !req
138. So it was a surprise to meCopy !req
139. when I found the letter
he wrote to his brother Lou—Copy !req
140. the brother I never
even knew he had.Copy !req
141. Most of it was about
how much pop hated him.Copy !req
142. Something had gone down
between the two brothers.Copy !req
143. Looked like a woman
was the cause.Copy !req
144. But the real shock
was that he said
he was proud of meCopy !req
145. and that he loved me.Copy !req
146. Now, that's not the pop
that I remembered.Copy !req
147. Maybe it was the way
he used to beCopy !req
148. before all he cared about
was turning a buck.Copy !req
149. Maybe it was Lou
who had changed him.Copy !req
150. That's what
I wanted to believe—Copy !req
151. the big secret
I swore I'd uncover.Copy !req
152. The coast was alive,Copy !req
153. but I had no time
for the sights.Copy !req
154. I was looking for something
to tip me off,Copy !req
155. a break in the routine,Copy !req
156. a place to start the hunt.Copy !req
157. Appreciate it.Copy !req
158. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
159. What it is, my man.
What it is.Copy !req
160. Hey, how you doing?Copy !req
161. Do you have
a nice hot one?Copy !req
162. Salted or unsalted?Copy !req
163. I don't care...
Long as it's lucky.Copy !req
164. Hope that's
hot enough for you.Copy !req
165. So do I.Copy !req
166. Ah, so do I.Copy !req
167. I hope that
we get there
in time.Copy !req
168. Hello.
Can I help you?Copy !req
169. Um... coffee, please.Copy !req
170. Regular or decaf?Copy !req
171. Regular.Copy !req
172. Hey... hey.Copy !req
173. 75 cents
for the coffee,
please.Copy !req
174. Here you go.Copy !req
175. Keep it.Copy !req
176. You come here often?Copy !req
177. No. It's
the first time.Copy !req
178. Why do you ask?Copy !req
179. I don't know.Copy !req
180. Would you like
a nice maple
spiral doughnutCopy !req
181. with your coffee?
They're heavenly.Copy !req
182. Maybe some other time.Copy !req
183. Thanks.Copy !req
184. Hey, kid.
What's your name?Copy !req
185. Mitch.Copy !req
186. Want to make
an easy 20 bucks, Mitch?Copy !req
187. For what?Copy !req
188. I'm looking for
Lou donan.Copy !req
189. Who's asking?Copy !req
190. His nephew.Copy !req
191. Pick a card.Copy !req
192. I don't
think so.Copy !req
193. You don't think so. Ha.Copy !req
194. That's not very
sociable behavior.Copy !req
195. Go on, pick a card.Copy !req
196. Look, I'm a little
busy right now.Copy !req
197. Take your game
someplace else.Copy !req
198. Busy at the market.Copy !req
199. Tell you what.Copy !req
200. If it's a high card,
I'll tell you who I am,Copy !req
201. and if it's
a low card,Copy !req
202. I'll tell you
who you are.Copy !req
203. Is that a deal?Copy !req
204. Sure.Copy !req
205. Joker.Copy !req
206. Joker.Copy !req
207. Hallelujah.Copy !req
208. Praise the lord.Copy !req
209. It's a hell of
a card trick.Copy !req
210. Why don't you
get lost?Copy !req
211. So you're
Lou's nephew, huh?Copy !req
212. Yeah. That's right.Copy !req
213. Yeah. That's right.Copy !req
214. I didn't know
Lou had a nephew.Copy !req
215. Well, you know it now.Copy !req
216. Come on. Let's take
a walk, friend.Copy !req
217. Get comfortable.Copy !req
218. Damn, I love
watching people.Copy !req
219. Damn! Business
really booming

220. Look at all those
happy people. Ha ha ha!Copy !req
221. You can learn a lot from...Copy !req
222. Just watching people.Copy !req
223. So... god, it's been...Copy !req
224. 30, 30 some-odd yearsCopy !req
225. since I've...
Seen my nephew.Copy !req
226. What's the matter,
cat got your
fuckin' tongue?Copy !req
227. All this time, I...Copy !req
228. I didn't even know
I had an uncle.Copy !req
229. Well, then there's
a lot you don't know.Copy !req
230. What did you want to
see me about, Joe?Copy !req
231. Well, I, uh...Copy !req
232. I've got some bad news
about my father.Copy !req
233. He's, um...Copy !req
234. He's dead.Copy !req
235. Yes, I know.Copy !req
236. Oh...Copy !req
237. It must be
kind of a shock, huh?Copy !req
238. Looks like you've
just seen a ghost,
friend.Copy !req
239. Eddie, will you put
the gun down, please,Copy !req
240. and get Joe

245. All right.Copy !req
246. Good luck.Copy !req
247. Bye-bye.Copy !req
248. So... how'd you
find me?Copy !req
249. Um... i had to
go through some
of my father's stuff.Copy !req
250. Your name was in
his address book,Copy !req
251. so I hopped on a bus
to come out and see you.Copy !req
252. Ah.Copy !req
253. How did you know
about him?Copy !req
254. Friend told me.Copy !req
255. Didn't know much.
Said that, uh...Copy !req
256. Mike had been killed
in some kind of con.Copy !req
257. Maybe you can
fill me in.
What happened?Copy !req
258. I don't really
know what happened.Copy !req
259. He was off
doing his own thing.Copy !req
260. Pop always had a few
irons of his own
in the fire.Copy !req
261. I just, uh...Copy !req
262. I wished I could
have been there,
you know?Copy !req
263. Mike, Mike, Mike.Copy !req
264. Never learned.Copy !req
265. Even as kids,
he was always going
out on his own,Copy !req
266. getting his hands dirty.Copy !req
267. Tsk.Copy !req
268. Hell, I'm sorry, Joe.Copy !req
269. Yeah, well, thanks.Copy !req

to spot.Copy !req
307. Well, I guess
I'm just a real
shrewd guy, huh?Copy !req
308. Yeah,
I guess you are.Copy !req
309. You and Lou run

310. You know,

450. He owes Lou 1,500.Copy !req
451. Is that right?Copy !req
452. Yeah, that's right.
And you're going to
get it from him.Copy !req
453. Excuse me?Copy !req
454. Lou thinks
you might be hard.Copy !req
455. Time to kiss
the baby, friend.Copy !req
456. Waaaah.Copy !req
457. You're
in my light, cuz.Copy !req
458. You must be the baby.Copy !req
459. Give me a lollipop,
baby.Copy !req
460. Cherry?Copy !req
461. You know me.Copy !req
462. I hear you owe
Lou donan $1,500.Copy !req
463. So?Copy !req
464. So I'm here for it.Copy !req
465. Who the hell are you?Copy !req
466. Where's Joe?Copy !req
467. He's mincemeat.Copy !req
468. Baby's going
to put his head
on a platter.Copy !req
469. What are you up to,
Eddie?Copy !req
470. I'm not getting off.Copy !req
471. I'm not getting off.Copy !req
472. Jesus Christ!Copy !req
473. You know,
you're disgusting
with that shit.Copy !req
474. I'm not getting off.Copy !req
475. Baby.Copy !req
476. All right.Copy !req
477. Yeah.Copy !req
478. Where to now, Eddie?Copy !req
479. Where's the money?Copy !req
480. I think I'll give it
to Lou myself.Copy !req
481. Good night, Joe.Copy !req
482. Good night, Diane.Copy !req
483. Eddie was kid stuff.Copy !req
484. Lou was the real deal.Copy !req
485. He was as clever as pop,Copy !req
486. a true pro of the high con.Copy !req
487. I saw that right away.Copy !req
488. And he had something big
in the worksCopy !req
489. that was going down soon.Copy !req
490. You pick up on these thingsCopy !req
491. when you're in the game
long enough.Copy !req
492. I had to find a clueCopy !req
493. that would lead me
to the cakeCopy !req
494. or at least tell me
what the hell the cake was.Copy !req
495. What's he up to?Copy !req
496. I thought about
the two brothersCopy !req
497. and what could have
driven them apart.Copy !req
498. Then I found the picture
I saw in my father's bag.Copy !req
499. This time it wasn't ripped.Copy !req
500. There was my mother
standing between pop
and uncle Lou,Copy !req
501. both holding her
like bookends.Copy !req
502. I got to tell you,
it gave me a chill.Copy !req
503. Get the cake.
My brother took
the cake.Copy !req
504. Did my mother
have something to do
with all this?Copy !req
505. Was that why
Lou was torn away
from my pop's photo?Copy !req
506. I didn't know it then,Copy !req
507. but that photo was the hookCopy !req
508. that would send me deeper
into the shadows,Copy !req
509. squinting for the truth.Copy !req
510. Open your eyes, Joe.Copy !req
511. You might find
what you've been
looking for.Copy !req
512. Who says
I'm looking?Copy !req
513. I do.Copy !req
514. Unless
you've been out late
being a naughty boy.Copy !req
515. Need a naughty girl
for that.Copy !req
516. How about her?Copy !req
517. That's different.Copy !req
518. That's
an old girlfriend.Copy !req
519. Oh.Copy !req
520. Romantic...Copy !req
521. Living in the past.Copy !req
522. Not really.Copy !req
523. Of course not.Copy !req
524. Eyes on tomorrow.Copy !req
525. Looking to score big.Copy !req
526. Break
a young girl's heart.Copy !req
527. You have a way
with words.Copy !req
528. Are you going
to drink that,Copy !req
529. or are you going
to let it evaporate?Copy !req
530. You think
you know me, Diane?Copy !req
531. I want to.Copy !req
532. What about
your friend Eddie?Copy !req
533. Make me forget him.Copy !req
534. How long
until you forget me?Copy !req
535. Treat me right,
maybe never.Copy !req
536. Tempting words...Copy !req
537. If I were a sucker.Copy !req
538. I'm playing you
straight, Joe.Copy !req
539. Drop it, Diane.Copy !req
540. I know what you are.Copy !req
541. The question is,
why are you here?
What do you want?Copy !req
542. You're hurting me.Copy !req
543. Well, the truth
can be painful.Copy !req
544. I'm sorry.Copy !req
545. It's just the way
I operate, you know?Copy !req
546. Took a dozen Eddies.Copy !req
547. You're different...Copy !req
548. Stronger. You're...Copy !req
549. I shouldn't have
played it that way.Copy !req
550. It was a mistake.Copy !req
551. Just don't tell Eddie
I was here, o.K.?Copy !req
552. Diane...Copy !req
553. You don't have to
hook people.Copy !req
554. You don't know me.Copy !req
555. I don't have anyone.Copy !req
556. I don't have
any uncle Lou.Copy !req
557. I don't have
any back home.Copy !req
558. I got me alone,
and that's it.Copy !req
559. I do what I got to do
to survive.Copy !req
560. All right. Listen.Copy !req
561. I'm sorry.Copy !req
562. Maybe I made a mistake.Copy !req
563. I know what it feels
like to be alone.Copy !req
564. I don't sleep with Eddie.Copy !req
565. That's nice to know.Copy !req
566. What was she like,Copy !req
567. the girl in the locket?Copy !req
568. I barely remember her.Copy !req
569. So why do you
carry it then?Copy !req
570. It's just kind of
a reminder, I guess.Copy !req
571. Of what?Copy !req
572. Things we're still
looking for.Copy !req
573. Like?Copy !req
574. Like, um...Copy !req
575. Like I lied to you.Copy !req
576. It's not
an old girlfriend.Copy !req
577. It's my mother.Copy !req
578. She died
when I was a baby.Copy !req
579. You...Copy !req
580. You are so sweet.Copy !req
581. I could get used to you.Copy !req
582. I got to go.Copy !req
583. Why?Copy !req
584. Eddie would kill US
if he found out.Copy !req
585. I'm not ready for that.Copy !req
586. I'm not sure...Copy !req
587. That I'm ready...Copy !req
588. For you.Copy !req
589. Sleep on it.Copy !req
590. You'll get used to it.Copy !req
591. The next day
was uncle Lou's birthday.Copy !req
592. I took advantage of it
to get in closer.Copy !req
593. I had a mission
to complete for pop.Copy !req
594. You know,
I don't rememberCopy !req
595. ever having a better ham
than this one.Copy !req
596. Really.Copy !req
597. Now I really see
the family
resemblance.Copy !req
598. He's just like
a donan—Copy !req
599. so polite and
handsome, too.Copy !req
600. I don't think
I can take itCopy !req
601. with two donans
in one room.Copy !req
602. I'm getting
all woozy.Copy !req
603. Well, listen,
before you pass out, baby,Copy !req
604. how about getting US
some fresh coffee?Copy !req
605. Oh, o.K., Louie.Copy !req
606. Ha ha ha ha ha!Copy !req
607. She is something.Copy !req
608. Yeah. She sure is.Copy !req
609. I found her
slinging hashCopy !req
610. at one of those
truck stopsCopy !req
611. out on
the interstate.Copy !req
612. She really
filled that
little uniform out.Copy !req
613. She was so fine.
Oh...Copy !req
614. She poured me
a cup of coffee.Copy !req
615. Best damn coffee
I've ever tasted.Copy !req
616. She said
she made it herself.Copy !req
617. That
was the clincher.Copy !req
618. Been together
ever since.Copy !req
619. Oh, blanche,
what is this?Copy !req
620. What are you doing?Copy !req
621. You know how i—
what's all the fuss?Copy !req
622. My god.Copy !req

624. Hey, come on.
You know i—Copy !req

626. Listen, blanche,
I don't like—Copy !req
627. this is terrible.
I mean—Copy !req
628. just make a wish.Copy !req

630. It's your

631. Yeah. Well, o.K.Copy !req
632. Now look—Copy !req
633. if Joe helps me,Copy !req
634. because it's Mike's

641. Thank you, Louie.Copy !req
642. Oh, boy.
Your favorite.Copy !req
643. Nice little horsies
on there, too, huh?Copy !req
644. Of course I put
the horsies
on there.Copy !req
645. I'm sorry about
your father, Joe.Copy !req
646. Crazy broad.Copy !req
647. But I love her.
I do love her.Copy !req
648. Happy birthday,
uncle Lou.Copy !req
649. What's this?Copy !req
650. The baby
sends his regards.Copy !req
651. Eddie's been trying
to get that money
from himCopy !req
652. for months,Copy !req
653. and—and you...Copy !req
654. Eddie's not a donan.Copy !req

667. The baby's a little
cranky tonight, huh?Copy !req
668. Yeah.
I don't dig looking

797. Jesus Christ.Copy !req
798. Eddie was a key playerCopy !req
799. in a job I've been
planning for six months.Copy !req
800. He was supposed
to bring in the Mark.Copy !req
801. Dangerous con,Copy !req
802. but a hell of a lot
of money involved.Copy !req
803. Son of a bitch.Copy !req
804. Here. We can

809. Uh...Copy !req
810. What do you need?Copy !req
811. I need somebody to
bring in the Mark.Copy !req
812. It's the classic
possum trap, man.Copy !req
813. You'll
have to kill me—
well, fake my death.Copy !req
814. You know the game.Copy !req
815. But, uh...Copy !req
816. What do you think?Copy !req
817. I don't know, Lou.Copy !req
818. I think you better find
one of your other guys.Copy !req
819. They're in another
class altogether, man.Copy !req
820. You can do it.Copy !req
821. Hey, Joe...Copy !req
822. You're all I got.Copy !req
823. Why'd I leave it open?Copy !req
824. Why didn't I say no
right there?Copy !req
825. 'Cause I remembered popCopy !req
826. setting up
the same damn conCopy !req
827. and telling me my part.Copy !req
828. He'd never let me say no.Copy !req
829. O.k.Copy !req
830. Take it easy.Copy !req
831. Joe?Copy !req
832. Diane?Copy !req
833. What the hell is this?Copy !req
834. You point a gun at me?Copy !req
835. I thought Eddie
might come back.Copy !req
836. Eddie's dead.Copy !req
837. What?Copy !req
838. Eddie's dead,
and Lou owns me.Copy !req
839. What happened?Copy !req
840. I don't know.Copy !req
841. What do you mean,
you don't know?Copy !req
842. I don't know!Copy !req
843. Something's going down.
I can feel it.Copy !req
844. It's too easy.Copy !req
845. I just got
to figure out what.Copy !req
846. Figure what?Copy !req
847. Enough
with the questions!Copy !req
848. We're in this
together!Copy !req
849. In what together?Copy !req
850. You know something
I don't know?Copy !req
851. You're paranoid.Copy !req
852. 'Cause you pointed
a gun at me.Copy !req
853. Don't push me, Joe.Copy !req
854. Why did you
point a gun at me?Copy !req
855. You're scaring me.Copy !req
856. I'm sorry, Diane.Copy !req
857. Lou's got a con
straight
out of my past.Copy !req
858. I don't know whether
to face it or bolt.Copy !req
859. Why not both?Copy !req
860. What do you mean?Copy !req
861. Take care of business
and then start over,Copy !req
862. like me now
that Eddie's gone.Copy !req
863. A new beginning.Copy !req
864. Yeah.Copy !req
865. A new beginning.Copy !req
866. Leave the past
to the people
who are stuck there.Copy !req
867. Joey...Copy !req
868. Ha ha ha ha!Copy !req
869. Joey, where
are you going?Copy !req
870. Ha ha ha!Copy !req
871. Joey, I love you.Copy !req
872. Joey...Copy !req
873. I love you...Copy !req
874. Joey...Copy !req
875. Leave the past to people
who are stuck there.Copy !req
876. When Lou filled me inCopy !req
877. on the mystery
of the cake,Copy !req
878. I couldn't find it
in my heartCopy !req
879. to take it from him.Copy !req
880. I had this made
for your mother.Copy !req
881. I was
in love with her.Copy !req
882. We were going
to be married.Copy !req
883. But I never
gave it to herCopy !req
884. because...Copy !req
885. My brother...
Your father...Copy !req
886. Well... well,
he was kind of stuckCopy !req
887. between the two
of US, and...Copy !req
888. And he stole her
away from me,Copy !req
889. so, uh...Copy !req
890. God,
I loved your mother.Copy !req
891. More than anyone
I have ever known.Copy !req
892. Certainly
more than my brother.Copy !req
893. I guess we were kind of
like Cain and Abel.Copy !req
894. Anyway, I, uh,
want you to have this.Copy !req
895. It, uh...Copy !req
896. Well, maybe you'll
find some girlCopy !req
897. as pretty
as your mother was,Copy !req
898. and you can
give it to her.Copy !req
899. Huh?Copy !req
900. I'll tell you what.Copy !req
901. Why don't you
keep it for me?Copy !req
902. Sure.Copy !req
903. Anytime you want it.Copy !req
904. You know...Copy !req
905. If things had been different,
you could have been...Copy !req
906. You could have
been my boy.Copy !req
907. You know, when this
is all over...Copy !req
908. Why don't you come
with blanche and me?Copy !req
909. We're going
down to Tahiti.Copy !req
910. We'll get
to know each other
a little better.Copy !req
911. Sure. I'd like that.Copy !req
912. Yeah.
I'd like that, too.Copy !req
913. Sit down. Let's get
down to business.Copy !req
914. Who's the Mark?Copy !req
915. A man named Dr. Lyme.Copy !req
916. He deals
in hot diamonds, solo.Copy !req
917. He was hipped to meCopy !req
918. by my old friend
Harry Shaw.Copy !req
919. I've heard of Harry.Copy !req
920. Yeah?Copy !req
921. Harry
was in on the game,Copy !req
922. except his old heart
gave out, and—Copy !req
923. anyway...Copy !req
924. Here's the bait.Copy !req
925. Watch. Wear that.Copy !req
926. Some bread.Copy !req
927. Here's the kicker.Copy !req
928. Wow. It's a beauty.Copy !req
929. Now, that is real, man.Copy !req
930. Boy, that is beautiful.Copy !req
931. How's your pool game?Copy !req
932. Not too good.Copy !req
933. Aha. Perfect. Perfect.Copy !req
934. On the way over,Copy !req
935. I went through the reasons
for turning back,Copy !req
936. and I almost did.Copy !req
937. But the moment I heard
the crack of the cue balls,Copy !req
938. I was committed.Copy !req
939. The job was up to me,Copy !req
940. just like the old days.Copy !req
941. Like it or not,
I was home.Copy !req
942. Billiards.Copy !req
943. $1,000.Copy !req
944. Is that per game
or per point?Copy !req
945. Whatever.Copy !req
946. Per point
would be fine.Copy !req
947. 25 to win?Copy !req
948. Sure.Copy !req
949. I prefer playing
on this table,Copy !req
950. if that's
all right with you.Copy !req
951. And, uh,
why is that?Copy !req
952. A little more private,Copy !req
953. it's the right temperature,Copy !req
954. and...Copy !req
955. It's a corsair.Copy !req
956. Sausage,
set it up.Copy !req
957. One of the rare occasionsCopy !req
958. in which 1... Plus 1...Copy !req
959. Equals 1.Copy !req
960. Shall we lag?Copy !req
961. Sure.Copy !req
962. I didn't catch
your name, Mr., uh...Copy !req
963. Joe.Copy !req
964. My pleasure,
Mr. Joe.Copy !req
965. The name's
Morgan gripp.Copy !req
966. But people
call me fats.Copy !req
967. This was Sam's game.Copy !req
968. Samuel langhorne clemens.Copy !req
969. You know, Mark twain.Copy !req
970. The genius
behind huck Finn,Copy !req
971. Tom Sawyer,Copy !req
972. a personal favorite
of mine—Copy !req
973. a Connecticut yankee
in king Arthur's court.Copy !req
974. He used to play whenever
he had writer's block.Copy !req
975. Said it was
good for the brain.Copy !req
976. I don't think
I've seen you
around here before.Copy !req
977. No. I'm not
from around here.Copy !req
978. That makes sense.Copy !req
979. Welcome to paradise,
Mr. Joe.Copy !req
980. It's all geometry,
really—Copy !req
981. isosceles triangles,Copy !req
982. Pentagons,Copy !req
983. octagons,Copy !req
984. et cetera,Copy !req
985. et cetera.Copy !req
986. But that,Copy !req
987. that, my friend...Copy !req
988. Is poetry.Copy !req
989. Let's see.Copy !req
990. That's...Copy !req
991. 24.Copy !req
992. 1 more would be 25.Copy !req
993. Ah-choo!Copy !req
994. Your turn now,
Mr. Joe.Copy !req
995. Very nice.Copy !req
996. Whoo.Copy !req
997. Tough break.Copy !req
998. Must have been
the pressure.Copy !req
999. You bring a good man
to his knees, you know?Copy !req
1000. If there were
a fat lady in here,Copy !req
1001. I think she'd be
clearing her throatCopy !req
1002. right...Copy !req
1003. About...Copy !req
1004. Now.Copy !req
1005. Score that...Copy !req
1006. 25 to 1.Copy !req
1007. Let's see.
At a thousand a point,Copy !req
1008. that would be, uh...Copy !req
1009. Oh, yes,Copy !req
1010. $24,000 you owe me,
Mr. Joe.Copy !req
1011. I, um...Copy !req
1012. I, uh, I don't have it.Copy !req
1013. Well, this
adds a new wrinkle
to our relationship.Copy !req
1014. Ahem.
I'm good for it.Copy !req
1015. A classic line.Copy !req
1016. However,
it just won't do.Copy !req
1017. Uh, listen, uh, here...Copy !req
1018. It's worth 25,000 easy.Copy !req
1019. I'm not a harlequin, Joe.Copy !req
1020. Look at it.Copy !req
1021. Those are
real diamonds.Copy !req
1022. Real diamonds.Copy !req
1023. Fortunately,
I have a way
to check this out.Copy !req
1024. If it isn't worth
what you claim,Copy !req
1025. then I'm afraid you're not
going to be worth much.Copy !req
1026. I think you should join
these two gentlemen now.Copy !req
1027. It was nice...Copy !req
1028. Playing with you.Copy !req
1029. Goddamn.Copy !req
1030. I'm good.Copy !req
1031. I see you're fond
of fine jewelry.Copy !req
1032. This is
an exquisite watch.Copy !req
1033. How did you happen
to acquire it?Copy !req
1034. Would you believe
I won that in
a card game?Copy !req
1035. Took it off a guy
named Harry Shaw.Copy !req
1036. My good friend Harry?Copy !req
1037. Yes, I just spoke
with him last week.Copy !req
1038. Really?Copy !req
1039. That's interesting.Copy !req
1040. He's been dead
for over a year.Copy !req
1041. Major faux pas indeed.Copy !req
1042. Would you like a drink,
Mr...Copy !req
1043. Thompson.Copy !req
1044. Joe Thompson.Copy !req
1045. Yeah. I think
I could use a drink.Copy !req
1046. Davida, a whiskey
for Mr. ThompsonCopy !req
1047. and a small Espresso
for me, please.Copy !req
1048. Your man Mr. Gripp,
he's a hell of
a billiards player.Copy !req
1049. Yes, a true virtuoso
of the game.Copy !req
1050. I fear that
you didn't give him
quite a fair challenge.Copy !req
1051. Didn't I?Copy !req
1052. So,Copy !req
1053. what can I do for you,
Mr. Thompson?Copy !req
1054. Well, for starters...Copy !req
1055. Take a look at that.Copy !req
1056. Let me see that diamond.Copy !req
1057. "D"...Copy !req
1058. Flawless.Copy !req
1059. Yep.Copy !req
1060. 5 carats.Copy !req
1061. In many lands
it is believedCopy !req
1062. that a spirit
lives inside the diamond.Copy !req
1063. That is why it has such...Copy !req
1064. Sparkle.Copy !req
1065. There are a lot
more spirits where
that one came from.Copy !req
1066. 29 more, to be exact.Copy !req
1067. I'm listening,
Mr. Thompson.Copy !req
1068. After our card game,Copy !req
1069. Harry and I became
pretty good friends.Copy !req
1070. He said if I ever fell
into anything big,Copy !req
1071. you were the man to see.Copy !req
1072. A texan I'd done
some business with,Copy !req
1073. he's got some ice
just... Way too hot
for him.Copy !req
1074. A texan?Copy !req
1075. I think I can get
all 30 for 2.Copy !req
1076. $2 million is a tidy sum.Copy !req
1077. And what, pray tell,Copy !req
1078. will you gain from this,
Mr. Thompson?Copy !req
1079. Whatever you think
is fair.Copy !req
1080. Joie de vivre.Copy !req
1081. I haven't seen quality
like this for... Ages.Copy !req
1082. 60 grand a carat.Copy !req
1083. That's
$9 million worth
for the price of 2.Copy !req
1084. You have seduced me.Copy !req
1085. You have a deal.Copy !req
1086. Shake.Copy !req
1087. How did you knowCopy !req
1088. I wasn't going to
snip off your fingers?Copy !req
1089. I didn't.Copy !req
1090. Never cross the line,
Joe.Copy !req
1091. Never cross the line.Copy !req
1092. What do you think?Copy !req
1093. It's inspiring.Copy !req
1094. Yeah?Copy !req
1095. Well, don't get
too used to it,Copy !req
1096. 'cause the minute
we get up the coast,
it's coming off...Copy !req
1097. Fast.Copy !req
1098. Not fast enough.Copy !req
1099. First there's the job.Copy !req
1100. Second thoughts?Copy !req
1101. I was in this con
once before.Copy !req
1102. It backfired...Copy !req
1103. Bad.Copy !req
1104. But Lou's
counting on you.Copy !req
1105. Yeah, there's Lou,Copy !req
1106. there's a second chance
at the con,Copy !req
1107. there's a whole mess
of things you don't
know anything aboutCopy !req
1108. pushing me into this job.Copy !req
1109. Then there's you.Copy !req
1110. I'm falling in love
with you.Copy !req
1111. You better be careful
throwing around words
like that.Copy !req
1112. Why?Copy !req
1113. I might want you
to take me away
right now.Copy !req
1114. I will.Copy !req
1115. In the morning.Copy !req
1116. Let's go now.Copy !req
1117. Mmm.
You're tempting me.Copy !req
1118. Let's go.Copy !req
1119. In the morning.Copy !req
1120. I'm in too far now
to fold.Copy !req
1121. I love you, Joe.Copy !req
1122. I'll see you soon.Copy !req
1123. Hello.Copy !req
1124. Hello.Copy !req
1125. What have you
been up to?Copy !req
1126. Not much.Copy !req
1127. Would you like some
coffee and doughnuts—
on the house?Copy !req
1128. Maybe
some other time.Copy !req
1129. O.k. Well,
stop by anytime.Copy !req
1130. Hey, patsy.Copy !req
1131. Hey, Joe.Copy !req
1132. How you doing?Copy !req
1133. I'm a little
nervous.Copy !req
1134. It's a big night
tonight.Copy !req
1135. Are you ready?Copy !req
1136. Yeah.Copy !req
1137. Of course I'm ready.Copy !req
1138. Good.Copy !req
1139. Let's go.Copy !req
1140. What is it with her
anyway?Copy !req
1141. Holly?
The doughnut girl?Copy !req
1142. Between you and me,Copy !req
1143. I think she's got
a crush on you.Copy !req
1144. So do me a favor.Copy !req
1145. Stay away from her,
o.K.?Copy !req
1146. I really like her.Copy !req
1147. I mean...Copy !req
1148. They don't come
any sweeter
than that.Copy !req
1149. Sure, patsy.Copy !req
1150. Thanks, Joe.Copy !req
1151. The hook was in.Copy !req
1152. Dr. Lyme was ripe
for the taking.Copy !req
1153. The biggest job of my life,Copy !req
1154. and all I could think about
was getting it over withCopy !req
1155. and then getting out.Copy !req
1156. O.k.Copy !req
1157. Joe, you pick 'em.Copy !req
1158. Ha ha ha ha!Copy !req
1159. First-rate, kid.
First-rate.Copy !req
1160. Now, these were a giftCopy !req
1161. from old Harry Shaw.Copy !req
1162. Now, I don't want
to let him down.Copy !req
1163. Why don't we sell them
and forget the whole thing?Copy !req
1164. Be quiet
and pay attention.
This is important.Copy !req
1165. You have to show money
to make money.Copy !req
1166. And tonight's haul,
gentlemen,Copy !req
1167. is $2 million.Copy !req
1168. Yeah. I like
the sound of that.Copy !req
1169. Me, too.Copy !req
1170. Joe hooked the claw.Copy !req
1171. Now we're going
to reel him inCopy !req
1172. and throw him in
the frying pan.Copy !req
1173. Everything o.K.
At your end, patsy?Copy !req
1174. I'm all set, Lou.Copy !req
1175. After the first shot,Copy !req
1176. you have to be
on the scene.Copy !req
1177. You'll cover our behinds.Copy !req
1178. Everybody takes
their cue from Joe.Copy !req
1179. Joe, as soon as you get
your hands on that cash,Copy !req
1180. you have to move fast.Copy !req
1181. If you don't kill me,Copy !req
1182. Dr. Lyme
sure as hell will.Copy !req
1183. Yeah.Copy !req
1184. O.k., kid?Copy !req
1185. Yeah.Copy !req
1186. O.k.Copy !req
1187. Let's drink.Copy !req
1188. My last con.Copy !req
1189. Couldn't believe
I was readyCopy !req
1190. to trade in the rackets
for a chance with Diane.Copy !req
1191. Somehow I felt I was
doing it for pop also,Copy !req
1192. making a break
from the lifestyleCopy !req
1193. that had chased US
all over the countryCopy !req
1194. and sucked up
all our time together.Copy !req
1195. Wealth...Copy !req
1196. Power...Copy !req
1197. God.Copy !req
1198. They all have
a distinct...Copy !req
1199. Aroma.Copy !req
1200. But none as sweet
as death.Copy !req
1201. I hope your cowboy
comes through for you,
Mr. Thompson.Copy !req
1202. I work for you.Copy !req
1203. If it works for him,Copy !req
1204. that's just icing
on the cake.Copy !req
1205. You humor me with your
ingratiating enthusiasm.Copy !req
1206. For the sake of argument,Copy !req
1207. if by chance
something did go wrong,Copy !req
1208. it would be...Copy !req
1209. Because I wanted it
that way.Copy !req
1210. Harry.Copy !req
1211. We want to
check them out.Copy !req
1212. Hell, yes, I'll show 'em
a couple.Copy !req
1213. You come and pick 'em.Copy !req
1214. Nice.Copy !req
1215. I want those stones back...Copy !req
1216. Pronto.Copy !req
1217. Beautiful.Copy !req
1218. Beautiful.Copy !req
1219. Beautiful.Copy !req
1220. And the others.Copy !req
1221. We want to see
the others.Copy !req
1222. Ho ho.Copy !req
1223. Come on. Let's just
make this simple,
shall we, now?Copy !req
1224. Show me the money.Copy !req
1225. I show you
the diamonds.Copy !req
1226. Easy, huh?Copy !req
1227. You'll see the moneyCopy !req
1228. when we check out
the rest of the diamonds.Copy !req
1229. Bull crap, man!Copy !req
1230. This game is off.Copy !req
1231. Give me my diamonds back.Copy !req
1232. Give me my goddamn diamonds
back, now!Copy !req
1233. Come on!
What the hell you doing?Copy !req
1234. Give them to me.Copy !req
1235. I know
what I'm doing.Copy !req
1236. You want these back, huh?Copy !req
1237. Damn right!Copy !req
1238. I think
I'll hold on to them
for all our trouble.Copy !req
1239. You son of a bitch!Copy !req
1240. What the hell you
trying to pull here?Copy !req
1241. I told you I'd deliver,
and I did—Copy !req
1242. Mr. Thompson.Copy !req
1243. Open it.Copy !req
1244. All right.Copy !req
1245. Here's the deal.Copy !req
1246. I hold the moneyCopy !req
1247. until my boss tells me
the goods are undamaged.Copy !req
1248. When he gives me the sign,
you get paid.Copy !req
1249. All right.
Come and get 'em.Copy !req
1250. Candy from a baby.Copy !req
1251. Anything goes wrong...Copy !req
1252. Kill them all.Copy !req
1253. He's wired!
It's a setup!Copy !req
1254. Do it. Do it.Copy !req
1255. Aah!Copy !req
1256. No!Copy !req
1257. Hold it! FBI!Copy !req
1258. Joe, go down!Copy !req
1259. Jesus!Copy !req
1260. Get my bloody money!Copy !req
1261. Aah!Copy !req
1262. When things fall apartCopy !req
1263. is when people stagger
to whatever's familiar,Copy !req
1264. the same way a bull charges
at a red capeCopy !req
1265. after being stabbed
a dozen times or so.Copy !req
1266. Wait!Copy !req
1267. I'm sorry, Joe.Copy !req
1268. Diane!Copy !req
1269. Played him
like a pro, doll.Copy !req
1270. Shut up!Copy !req
1271. Long time no see,
Joe.Copy !req
1272. Glad you came.Copy !req
1273. Hello, Joe.Copy !req
1274. What do you know?Copy !req
1275. Pop?Copy !req
1276. Pete,
get the cake.Copy !req
1277. You did good,
Joe.Copy !req
1278. Aha!Copy !req
1279. Ah!Copy !req
1280. My god!Copy !req
1281. My, my, my.Copy !req
1282. Whoo!Copy !req
1283. Frank...Copy !req
1284. There's
your taste.Copy !req
1285. Good con.Copy !req
1286. See you on
the next trip.Copy !req
1287. Call me anytime.Copy !req
1288. Pete...Copy !req
1289. It's always
a pleasure
working with you.Copy !req
1290. The pleasure's
mine, Mikey.Copy !req
1291. Ha ha!
See you soon.Copy !req
1292. Real good, Joe.Copy !req
1293. And you, babe.Copy !req
1294. Here's your cut.Copy !req
1295. I don't want the money.Copy !req
1296. Strictly
business,
baby.Copy !req
1297. Take it...Copy !req
1298. And go.Copy !req
1299. The rest...Copy !req
1300. Is ours.Copy !req
1301. Your brother's dead.Copy !req
1302. Yeah?Copy !req
1303. Ha.Copy !req
1304. Well, well, well,
well, well.Copy !req
1305. Why?Copy !req
1306. Well, I'm sorry, Joe.
I couldn't fill you in.Copy !req
1307. You see,
this is the only way
it could work.Copy !req
1308. I did what I had to do.Copy !req
1309. It was just another Mark.Copy !req
1310. You pinpoint a Mark,Copy !req
1311. you take him
for everything he has...Copy !req
1312. Any way you can.Copy !req
1313. We just made
the biggest score
of our lives, kid.Copy !req
1314. $2 fucking million,
son.Copy !req
1315. Don't you ever
call me that.Copy !req
1316. Hey,
what the hell is that?Copy !req
1317. Hey, now, don't point
that goddamn thing at me!Copy !req
1318. Joe, just stop.Copy !req
1319. Just stop and think
for a minute.Copy !req
1320. Isn't this
the best goddamn conCopy !req
1321. you've ever seen
in your life?Copy !req
1322. I mean,
with your own eyes?Copy !req
1323. It's up there, man!Copy !req
1324. It was something special.Copy !req
1325. We did it together,
kid.Copy !req
1326. We did it, man!Copy !req
1327. What'd you think
of Diane, huh?Copy !req
1328. Wasn't that a nice touch?Copy !req
1329. I mean,
she looked so much
like your mother...Copy !req
1330. Wow!Copy !req
1331. It all just fell into place
like magic.Copy !req
1332. There was
no turning around.Copy !req
1333. He deserved every
goddamn thing he got.Copy !req
1334. He took your mother
away from you, man!Copy !req
1335. Jesus!Copy !req
1336. She didn't die
when you were born.Copy !req
1337. He killed her!Copy !req
1338. He killed her with
one of his goddamn cons!Copy !req
1339. Damn near killed me,
too.Copy !req
1340. It's you and me now,
Joe.Copy !req
1341. Come on!Copy !req
1342. It's you and me.
US against them.Copy !req
1343. Put the goddamn gun down!Copy !req
1344. Put it down...Copy !req
1345. Please!Copy !req
1346. Are they blanks...Copy !req
1347. Or are they real?Copy !req
1348. Hell...Copy !req
1349. I love you, son.Copy !req
1350. Aah!Copy !req
1351. Goddamn!Copy !req
