your mouth off like a parrot with tits?

[MEN CHUCKLING]

Okay, all right.

Now you're just being rude.

Danny belongs to me.

Danny belongs to no one.

It's all right. You know, I like your style.

No hard feelings.

Why don't you go get the little thief?

Bring him up here.

And then in a few years...

...if I don't want him anymore...

...and if he's still alive,

maybe I sell him to you.

I think you mean if you're still alive.

[]

MAN:

Uncle?

What did you do?

I just f***ed up.

Bad.

You sleeping on the sofa, okay?

You should be comfortable.

[PHONE BUZZES]

Uh...

I gotta run out for a bit.

- You just gonna leave me in your house?

- Yeah. Why not?

- I could rob you.

- Yeah, but you're not.

Make yourself at home.

Get whatever you want out of the fridge.

You know where the bathroom is.

Takes a minute for hot water to come up.

One rule:

Stay out of my room.

[]

[CHATTERING]

[DOOR HANDLE RATTLING]

You can't check in?

Heh. My phone died.

Someone took out Uncle and his crew.

Kozlovs think it was us.

Where's Benny?

- His office.

- I'll be up.

[]

The Kozlovs think we did this

to take Uncle's territory.

- That's ridiculous.

- Of course it is.

Whoever killed that douche bag

did the world a favor.

- Who did it?

WALTER:
A**hole like him...

- ...everyone's a suspect.

- Okay, Walter.

We gotta make a move

before they retaliate.

- Last thing we want is another war.

- Maybe exactly what we need is a war.

Maybe he's right, Pop.

Mary?

Mary.

You've been so quiet.

Oh...

I was just thinking.

You're right.

We don't need another war.

We need to put this to bed now.

Tom.

- Arrange a meeting for tomorrow.

- You got it, Pop.

You went through my things last night.

I thought I told you

to stay out of my room.

Oh, you think that's funny?

No.

Why you got guns in your room?

You didn't see any guns.

Do you understand me?

I said, do you understand me?

Yeah, I got it.

[SIGHS]

The next time I tell you to do something,

you better listen.

We understand each other?

I got it.

Because I gotta leave, but I'll be back.

Stay in this apartment. Lock the door.

Do not answer it

under any circumstance.

Do you understand me?

Yeah, whatever, man.

Don't "whatever" me.

What are you gonna do, huh?

If you gonna hit me, just do it.

Sorry.

Sorry.

[]

Please spare me your sympathy.

Take this. Here.

Uncle was my father's youngest brother.

Not his brightest and not my favorite...

...but he was family.

What we want is justice.

We're here to avoid

any misunderstanding.

Tell me, how do we know it wasn't

the pervert Walter King?

He and Uncle always had bad blood.

Whoever killed Uncle
