Pause. Feedback. The agents trade looks. Carruthers grabs a

cellphone, dials, patches a feed for the party on the other

end to hear.

PADICHE (V.O.)

... Jesus... what for?

SERNA (V.O.)

-- who can say. He's off his onion,

y'know, he's old school Sicilian,

this is how they hate.

PADICHE (V.O.)

Wow.

SERNA (V.O.)

Hey, we nab Israel, they pay t'get'm

back, I'll cut the f***in' thing out

m'self, no extra charge. My thing

is, we crew up, let's not f*** around,

someone's cousin, some Zip off the

boat from Naples, let's get pros,

people who know how to behave.

PADICHE (V.O.)

Yeah, there's a pair'a broads I'm

thinking might be good for this.

SERNA (V.O.)

Chances are, they're gonna get into

some sh*t too, hafta put people down.

PADICHE (V.O.)

That's not a problem. Are we goin'

outta pocket ourselves?

SERNA:

Yeah, I can front this.

PADICHE (V.O.)

Well just so I got a quote in my

head. What's the rate for the Swede?

SERNA:

That's the punchline, y'ready?

PADICHE:

Shoot.

SERNA (V.O.)

A million flat.

PADICHE (V.O.)

No sh*t.

SERNA (V.O.)

None whatsoever.

SMASH CUT TO CREDITS:

The Ace of Hearts, spinning through mid-air, slow motion,

end over end. Bullets blast big sizzling holes through it.

SMASH CUT TO:

EXT. CASINO -- LAS VEGAS (PAST)

Neon-framed doors fly open as a slicked-back chump with a

store-bought tan strides out onto the strip, swinging underage

bar-bait on each arm. He's all strut and punk swagger,

grinning like a geek who just struck gold.
