- I mean, lying in court...|- You also pointed at me.

- That hurt.|- Well, I was under oath.

- I mean...|- Come here.

The only reason|you're alive, Biderman,

is I knew I might need you|again someday... like today.

Oh, sure. You need a loan?|The rates are great now.

- And you get a toaster.|- I don't need a toaster.

Before I went away, I put|aside a little nest egg.

[Gasping] These bills,|they're marked consecutively.

- They'd trace these in a minute.|- That's right.

- [Coughing]|- That's where you come in, old buddy.|I want new bills.

- We're back in the S&L business,|Biderman.|- Ah, money laundering...

- is very difficult these days, Carl.|- You still do it though, don't you?

That's a good-looking family|right there.

You're not gonna|hurt them, are you?

- Hate to have to.|- All right.

How do you want|to do this?

- I'll send my guy in tomorrow|with a cheque for a million.|- Tomorrow?

Yep, just like the old days.|You give him the cash, unmarked,|send him on his way.

- Whom should I expect?|- Whom should...

Whom should you expect?|His name is Juice.

- Juice?|- Mmm, he'll be here in exactly 24 hours.

Let's call it 1:

Come on. Walk me out.|Show a little respect.

Whoa.

I know how you feel.

Oh, yeah.|Oh, yeah, sure.

I would like to open|an account, please.

Eleven dollars.

Do you have any other money|you'd like to deposit, Mr Waters?

Oh, uh, I could,

but it's sort of hard to save|around my house; that's why I'm here.

I'm afraid we have|a minimum balance. It's $200.

Two hundred dollars?

That could take|a million years.

Well, whenever you're ready,|please come back and see me.

My name's Shay Stanley.

- Ask for me.|- Okay, I'll do that.

- Thanks.|- Bye-bye.

- I-I'll see you next time.|- I hope it's not in a million years.

B-Bye-bye.

Here. You can use these cheques.|They're temporary.
