Unconditional surrender.

Take off your stockings

and give them to me.

Do you like it?

Oh, yes. Yeah.

Tell me again.

Oh! I like it.

No.

I can't have that.

No, no, no, no.

- Sorry about that, Chief, what's going on?

- We got ourselves a Four Roses.

Four Roses? Where?

- 414 Lake Shore Drive.

- That's our end.

Look, I'm giving this one to you

and Tommy Kane. High profile.

Hey, Alex, you're gonna wanna

prepare yourself for this one.

A woman was tortured to death.

You understand.

Hold it tight, let's see who it is.

It's Alex.

I gotta take this.

Come on, Tommy, answer the phone.

Hey, Man, what... what's

goin' on? What do we got?

We got Four Roses with a torture tracer, Man.

Where are you?

Yeah. No. I'm a... I'm at a

card game, and I'm ahead.

You're playing cards and you're ahead?

Before you lose, chip-out and tell me

where to pick you up.

Yeah, well, you can get me

at the corner Saint Albin and Mac.

I'll see you in a little bit.

Right.

I think we got a multiple, I gotta go.

- Okay. You worried?

- No. Why?

You're puttin' on your pants kind of angry.

- Wow, I'm that much of an open book, huh?

- To me you are.

What do you think I am to him?

We've been best friends since we were little

kids, and now I'm lyin' to him and he knows it.

We've been careful.

Careful? What do you think?

We can fool him?

This is the guy who can tell you'd had

scrambled eggs breakfast at 100 yards.

Besides, I don't like lying to him.

Then let's come clean,

tell him what he already knows.

That would not be good

for your future... your career.

I know. But I'm good at my job.

- And Alex knows that.

- Yeah, Alex also knows the rules.

And this... what we're doing...

- This is not supposed to be, Babe.

- But it is.

- And we're here.

- And it's only been two months.

All right, now, listen to me, we gotta give this a

little bit of time to make sure that this is real.

And if it is...

we got some tough decisions ahead of us.

Look at you, you're just the kinda guy

my father told me to avoid like the plague.

Looking at you and I hate to see

you go in the middle of the night.

Someday you'll be looking at me...

Dunkin' my donuts, slurpin' my coffee,

- and you'll beg to get rid of me.

- The easy Irish charm. Save it.

I was thinkin' on my way over

here, Man, you know how much you've

changed since junior high school?

Since junior high? Take a wild guess!

Hey, look, I know what

you're talking about

and I don't want you worry, all

right? It's just a thing, okay?

Don't tell me not to worry about it.

Briana was a thing,

Skyler, that was a thing, this is

Monica, that is not a thing, Man,

that is dangerous. I'm tellin,
