The Whole Ten Yards Page #2

Synopsis: Thanks to falsified dental records supplied by his former neighbor Nicholas "Oz" Oseransky (Matthew Perry), retired hit man Jimmy "The Tulip" Tudeski (Bruce Willis) now spends his days compulsively cleaning his house and perfecting his culinary skills with his wife, Jill, a purported assassin who has yet to pull off a clean hit. Suddenly, an uninvited and unwelcome connection to their past unexpectedly shows up on Jimmy and Jill's doorstep: it's Oz, and he's begging them to help him rescue his wife from the Hungarian mob. To complicate matters even further, the men, who are out to get Oz, are led by Lazlo Gogolak (Kevin Pollak), a childhood rival of Jimmy's and another notorious hit man. Oz, Jimmy and Jill will have to go the whole nine yards--and then some--to manage the mounting Mafioso mayhem.

I'd buy cookies from her.

Putz.

- I heard that!

- Jag- off.

Well, that was a close call, huh?

Minty Thins are bad anyway.

They cause staining--

- You've really got to stop this now, Oz.

- I know.

Nobody is coming to get us. They can't

come and get us, because they're all dead.

- Or in jail.

- Right.

If you look at that monitor

one more time...

I'll be taking cold showers?

For starters.

You look very nice in that robe.

This will make you very happy. I think.

You think, huh?

Well, for starters, I hate the color.

So! You are the two that tried to muscle in

on my businesses while I was gone.

- No!

- Tell everyone that Lazlo Gogolak...

...is back in town.

How are they gonna tell

anyone when they're dead?

What?

Come here. I love you, boy.

Don't correct me. As a rule.

- What is that? Give it to me.

- Here, boss.

Oh, another surprise.

That was fun.

Oseransky.

- It's me.

- Oh, hey, Jill, how are you?

- How's your new dental assistant?

- Well, she's not trying to kill me.

Never forget the fun we had.

- Hey, listen. Can I ask you something?

- Sure, anything.

You think Jimmy and Cynthia talk?

What do you mean? Like you and I talk?

No, like, I mean, ''talk'' talk.

I don't understand. Why would

Jimmy and Cynthia be ''talk'' talking?

No, Cynthia would tell me.

She tells me everything.

- Why?

- He's acting like a fruitcake.

- What, he's killing people?

- I wish.

No, he's up to something. He's acting like

he's out of his mind, but I don't believe it.

Oh, jeez, a homicidal maniac acting

totally crazy. What a surprise.

- Jill!

- I gotta go, I'll talk to you later.

Yeah?

- So that's the one we're after?

- Yes.

Cost me 1 0,000 to get,

you know, the dental work.

- To find out if it's him.

- Did you save receipts?

- No. What receipts?

- I'm kidding.

Nobody saves receipts anymore.

Don't worry. That's why it's funny.

It's funny. All right, so you go in

and you grab him.

- Yes.

- You go in...

And I...

And grab him.

- What do you do?

- I go in and I grab him.

Piece of pie.

- No, it's ''cake.''

- What did I say?

- Pie.

- And you said?

- Cake. No, it's pie.

- Piece of pie.

Cake.

Mr. White, how's that implant

treating you?

Okay.

So how are you? How you doing?

You're looking topnotch. Very stellar.

That's a nice sweater.

A burnt orange or--?

Hey, Dr. Oseransky,

your wife's on line one.

- Is she upset?

- You know what...

...I can't tell whether she's

laughing or crying.

I think she might be laughing.

- Okay, well, put her through, okay, Julie?

- Okay.

Here we go. A little nitrous for you.

Now, don't take this off

until I tell you.

You may enjoy that.

- Hi, honey, what's up?
