You don't want to leave me

out here throwing rocks.

Where are you?

You got something for me?

I'm gonna get you something.

Hey, Sal. You got something for me?

I got a sick stoolie.

You have to replace this for me, Danny.

I got stoolies too, you know?

What is it?

I don't know what this is.

This ain't sh*t! Sh*t, Danny!

You gotta get me something! What

are we gonna do? Come on, Danny.

- Danny, you gotta get me something.

- Shut up! Shut up!

You gotta help me, Danny!

- Sh*t, Danny!

- Shut up! We'll go over to Cy's place.

- Oh, I don't believe it.

- What?

I left my money at home.

I haven't got a dime.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God, Danny.

Oh, God, Danny, what are we gonna do?

- Danny, what are we gonna...? Oh, God.

- Shut up.

When that guy comes out of Cy's,

I'm gonna take him.

You can have whatever he's got.

- Yeah, Danny, you gotta...

- Get your hands off me and stay down.

Stay out of sight.

Danny!

Danny!

Come on, Danny!

Why'd you run, Jose?

Kill him! Kill him!

Kill the motherf***er!

You hurt me, baby face.

I think you broke something.

You shouldn't have run, Jose.

Where's your junk?

Oh, don't take my junk. Please,

baby face, don't take my cure, man.

I bought five bags, take half.

Don't take it all. I'm sick.

Don't you see how sick I am?

I'm a junkie, not a connection.

Why you wanna bust me?

Oh, Jesus, Jose, I'm sorry.

It's okay. It's broke, it don't matter.

Just don't leave me sick, baby face.

Hey, four bags, Jose.

You must have struck it rich.

Here's two bags.

Go home and sleep now.

You're a b*tch, Danny.

That's some f***ing left hand

you got.

Dry out. You got a lot of work

to do tomorrow.

I'm not gonna forget this, Danny.

I'm not gonna forget this.

I can't breathe. I'm gonna to be si...

Come on, Jose.

Come on, I'll take you home.

I saved you two bags, Jose.

You'll be okay.

Jeannie, open. I got something.

- What is it?

- From Cy's.

Jeannie, you got any iodine?

Jeannie, save me something. I'm sick.

I'm sick, baby, okay?

Okay, baby?

I'm sick.

Baby.

Save me something, baby, yes.

l... I blew my first shot.

You f***ing liar!

Where did you put the bag?

I flushed it, man. It was garbage.

I told you, I had to take two.

I blew my first shot.

You f***ing liar! Didn't you even leave

me enough to get through the night!

- Oh, you liar! Liar, liar.

- Oh, babe!

- Liar, liar, liar.

- Hold him, please!

- Liar, liar, liar.

- Please, please!

Day I graduated from the academy

was the proudest day in their lives.

I hear you've got

the best mob connection in SIU.

A cousin. That right?

Yeah, Nick.

My father's sister.

Her Nick's with the Colombos.

Listen, those guys don't tell me anything
