I am going to f***ing kill you.

Dad, wait!

Get back in the house.

Get back in the house!

Get back in now! Go!

Stay right here.

Don't you move, son, OK?

You f***ing piece of sh*t.

I am going to f***ing kill you!

- Nicky, get inside.

- F***ing piece of sh*t!

Joe! Joe!

What's the matter with you?

I just called 911.

Leave it for the cops!

Get the kid and take him

back in the house!

You f***ing piece of sh*t!

I am going to kill you!

Open the f***ing door!

- Oleg's my friend!

- I will kick it in!

- He's my friend!

- Open the door!

Joey, don't be a damn hero!

Open up! It's Joey Gazelle

from next door! Open up!

Open up!

Get back! Get back!

Where is he? Is he upstairs?

He's in--

- What?

- He's--

Listen, get down.

What the f***?

Where's the kid?

Where's the kid?

F*** him.

I am the one who's shot.

Who is he?

Is he still in the house?

The little snotfuck

ran out back.

Oleg?

Oleg? What are you trying to say?

Oleg shot you?

What are you...

a f***ing idiot?

I didn't do this to myself.

The little prick

put a gun to me, too.

Look at him.

She used to f***ing make--

Where'd he get the piece?

Where'd he get the f***ing piece?!

- F*** should I know?!

- What, it wasn't yours?

No! No way!

I got a .357

in the safe out back.

He had some f***ing

snub-nosed thing.

Silver. Chrome.

This is bullshit, Nick!

Now you tell me!

I am not playing around!

We saw where you put the gun,

but he didn't take anything--

not with me.

Well, he went back, Nicky.

Well, I didn't know.

I swear I didn't know.

Come here. Listen to me.

Listen to me. That piece,

that's not just any hot piece.

Tommy used it

to burn a dirty cop.

- No. Joe.

- Yeah.

Yeah. No, no. Listen, listen.

On top of it...

that kid's out there right now.

The cops are on their way.

If they find the gun

or they find the kid...

and he talks, I am dead.

F***!

Calm down! Calm down.

- Yeah.

- Calm down.

We can get to him.

You can get to the gun

before the cops do.

Sh*t.

Hey.

Hey, so where you

going to take him?

Grimley Memorial.

Hey, Mila, you know, I think

you should go with him, OK?

Nyet. Ya padazhdu.

Yeah, no, you should go with him.

I am going to go look for Oleg.

Me and Nicky are going to

go find him, OK?

And I will get Teresa to stay here

in case he comes back, all right?

- All right, you should go.

- OK. Thank you, Joey.

- Yeah, no problem.

- I am sorry.

Yeah, no problem.

Yeah, we're going to find him.

Don't worry about it.

F***.

Come on.

Police officers.

Sir, you live here?

No, no. Actually, I live next door.

I heard some gunshots...

so I came over, you know,

to see what's going on.

What did you see?

I saw Anzor, my neighbor.
