- That would make...

- 1,250,000 for each one.

That's Ok for me.

For me too.

If it doesn't bother anyone,

I'm in for the double.

The double?

I got plenty of cash around,

I'm not gonna leave it in some bank.

You should.

- Listen, we'll see...

- It's your decision.

Minassin, you take care of the courier.

- Robrt, you find a lab.

- No problem.

What about the new judge?

What new judge?

The new ones are always overzealous.

Don't worry, "Banker",

the judge won't make you no harm.

You worry too much.

Are we done here?

Let's go, Franky.

Coming!

Sh*t!

- Tany! How are you?

- Are we interrupting?

Are you kiddin? It's a pleasure to see you.

Hey, Franky!

Come in.

What a surprise.

What the hell does he want from me.

Peculiar in here.

- It's not mine, it's my woman's house.

- Dora?

- You know her?

- People talk, you know...

- Who's the a**hole who talks about me?

- Stay calm.

The word is you pay the rent, but...

You don't have the right

to live like this, do you?

It's not that I don't have the right,

Dora likes her independence

and I respect it.

You respect it.

Did you hear, Franky?

Respect.

- That's good.

- Yeah.

What about me, then? Me.

Do you respect me?

Why do you say that, Tany?

- Damn sure I respect you!

- Didn't you have something to do for me?

The chemist?

I found the guy you're looking for,

his name is Charles

Peretti, he's the best.

In 3 weeks he can turn a ton of morphine-base

into 100 kilos of pure heroin!

Trust me!

When will I see him?

Soon, in fact I know his nephew, Fabrizio.

We had to meet 2 days ago

but we couldn't manage...

but don't worry, I'm on it.

No.

It's not gonna work for you this time.

Why you say that?

- Is something troubling you?

- No.

- Is it love?

- Well, yeah I'm in love, but...

- This isn't love.

- That's nothing, Tany!

From time to time, you know...

It's good for f***ing, that's all,

you know Franky.

- Just throw it.

- Don't touch it.

Back in Naples, cause I'm from Naples,

you know it, don't you?

You know it.

Back there we have a tradition,

let's say a bit rude...

...but very effective.

Here, when a father sees his son

drinking alcohol, what does he do?

Gives him a little wallop

and that's all.

But back where I come from,

that's not the way it works.

Back there...

...the father sits his son at the table...

...and takes out a big bottle of grappa...

...and makes him drink the whole thing.

Glass after glass after glass...

The son doesn't understand.

He cries, he vomits his guts out.

And inevitably, short after...

...he passes out.

Not for long, 5 or 6 hours.

I can assure you after that, the kid

will never drink a drop again.

You see where I'm getting at here?
