my mom.

No, the b*tch left me in an

alleyway to die as a baby.

Yeah, just around the corner

from the police station.

She couldn't even be bothered to

take the last few steps.

Anything else?

- No, sir,

you

have a good day.

(door slamming)

(clock chiming)

- Grady, welcome.

- Thank you, Dom.

- Breakfast?

- No.

- So I've been told you're

ready to go back to work.

All healed.

- Nothing clicks when I move it.

- You should be pleased to know,

Pearl's associates have

vanished.

His businesses have

shuttered all their windows.

You made quite an impression

on them, it seems.

- They made a few on me.

I call us even.

- You know what this means?

- It means my hair looks good

on a telephoto lens.

And the FBI's intel on me

is alarmingly accurate.

- Right down to that nickname of

yours.

- How'd they get all this?

- You've been betrayed.

Four of my own have turned

informant.

Our people talking to the other

side,

and as you can see,

they've been quite chatty.

This assignment is about our

survival, plain and simple.

No messages, no theatrics,

just make this right for me.

- Anything else?

- Do it tonight.

The U.S. Marshals Service is

taking

them into protective custody

tomorrow.

The first name will arrive by

text.

When it's done, confirm the hit.

I'll give you the next name.

And use this phone only,

in case anything happens-

Given the gravity of the

situation,

you might want to consider

tempering

that arrogance of yours.

- These targets are your

friends, Grady.

- Nope, these targets are my

targets.

- I'm guesses that sounded

better in your head.

- Yes, it did.

I can handle anything.

- Then handle this.

(cellphone chiming)

(airplane engine roaring)

- Long night?

- Hot date.

- Protection?

- I'm covered.

- I hear this one doesn't

dull the sensation.

- You don't say?

- Okay, that was nice.

(door chiming)

- Dang it.

- Tuck that in better.

(door chiming)

(water running)

- Well, woo!

- Did you fall in?

- I was just giving the

plumbing a stress test.

Come on partner, relax, we've go

time, come on.

You seem tense.

- Do I?

- Are you tense?

- Am I?

- What do you got, first

night in the field jitters?

- I prefer the office.

- There's an easy trick

to handle the nerves.

I think it's called

associative or some sh*t.

See, like, with me, I'm a

foodie.

So, like, whenever things get

tough,

I like to think about getting

this nice, flank steak

and mashed potatoes they serve

at this joint near my place.

- That's so not what a foodie

is.

- Then what's a foodie?

- Not someone who goes to

the same joint over and over.

You're more of a chow hound.

- Look, all I'm saying
