Wait a minute.

What's going on?

Talk to me.

- Just talk to me.

- I can't.

Okay.

All right. You don't have to.

It's all right. Come on.

Mr. Bodine.

Speak, Dickey-boy.

So, what do you do for boredom?

I never had the problem.

Bullshit. You've got the most boring life

a man ever lived.

You'll grow into it. Trust me.

Three-pointer.

See that?

Call the Pistons.

- Sign the kid for $5 million.

- It could happen.

Yeah, and I'll still be pulling down

$26,500 a year.

And worth every goddamn cent, right?

Right.

What colour was his T-shirt?

- Who?

- The kid who made the basket.

White.

- How the hell would I know?

- You wouldn't, you've got no eye for detail.

Well, I think I do when it's important.

It's always important. Everything you see.

Everything minute of the day.

But you don't see nothing

because you're bored.

Lamar, the kid wasn't wearing a shirt.

You're an okay cop, but these

are keeping you from being a good cop.

Then why did you partner with me?

I mean, you had a choice.

I keep hoping

you might surprise me some day.

Well, one day I might.

Don't strain yourself.

I might be incapable of surprise.

It could be in this lifetime

I'm all surprised out.

Hi.

Kyle.

I waited for you all day.

- Did you miss me?

- Yes.

- So, how is she?

- Who?

Your Cinderella.

Come on. I tell you everything

and what do you tell me?

Who's dead and who's done it.

You don't want to tell me about it, do you?

How come?

You think I'm going to

take her away from you?

All right. Good shot.

- Is she putting out for you?

- I got nothing going on.

F*** you.

- Are you going to get upset?

- Perhaps.

Please don't, Lamar.

We have to talk.

Listen, I want to forget this.

What do you mean?

Take me for a ride?

In this?

How well can you swim?

How soon they forget.

I will never forget.

You want to go inside?

I envy you, Kyle.

You're so comfortable in yourself.

I wish I could be you.

What's wrong?

I'm in a trap. I can't get out of it.

Divorce him.

I love you.

I know I can't give you what he can.

- That's not it.

- Whatever I got, it's yours.

Whatever you want, I'll get.

- Whatever you need, I'll do.

- Kyle, stop, please.

You got to decide.

You either stand up to him and leave him...

...or you stay with him

and you try to work it out.

Rachel, my God.

- Hi.

- What are you doing here?

I wanted to surprise you.

Mr. Munro, you have a call, sir.

He won't give his name, says it's personal.

Rupert Munro.

Who the f*** is this?

What don't make much sense to me

is why two smart guys like us...

...chose this poor-ass police life.

I had a reason for doing it.

It'll come to me.
