you, I'm not kiddin', Man.

- Look! It's not that simple, all right?

- How you gonna say that to me?

It's not that simple, I mean

I have real feelings for her.

It might be, ya know,

maybe I'm in love with her.

Let me simplify it for you in case

you don't understand me, all right?

You and her, that jeopardizes our team, that

jeopardizes me, that jeopardizes you, my family.

I'm not willin' to take that

risk, My Friend, so...

You need to end it, or somebody

needs to leave.. cool it.

All right, all right, I'll go.

- You... you'll... you'll go?!

- What's gotten into you do today?

There's gotta be something more

on your mind than my sex life?

I'm takin' a job with the FBI, Man.

What! Really?

I'm gonna do it, it's a... it's my psych degree

means more pay, they've been callin' a lot, and...

and I get to spend more time

with Maria and the three kids, so...

You know me, do it.

Whoa! Wait a second! Back up

a sec, did you say three kids.

- Don't tell me...

- The detective is on duty, yes, Sir!

Number three, Buddy,

and I'm very happy about it.

That is great news, Man!

Congratulations, congratulations.

However, a desk job with the FBI, terrible news.

You know you can't take that job.

Tommy, I love you, Man, I mean, you

know I do, from the bottom of my heart.

Well, you do, that's what I'm saying.

But I'd rather take advice

from a ham sandwich.

Oh, my God, now you're really insulting me. All

right, well, let me explain something to you.

You don't play the game,

the game plays you.

Listen, my mind's made up,

it's done, it's happening, okay?

And you've already discussed

this with Maria, I suppose.

I knew it. I knew it.

Well, after you discuss it with Maria...

then your mind is made up.

Thanks, Green, how you doin', Man?

Good morning, Chief, you're

up bright and early.

Yep! I got a prayer breakfast over

at the Amy Zion Baptist church in

Lafayette Park.

It's one of my Outreach programs.

You guys... get all this, yes?

- Yeah, sure.

- Good.

Crimes in neighborhoods like this are... Ah, hell,

cake eaters don't like it and it's bad for business.

Solve it, please.

- He's runnin'.

- No doubt.

This place is heavy, huh?

Hey, Guys, whaddya say ya clear out,

let Gandalf and I have this site.

- Gandalf?

- Yeah! He was a wizard, what do ya want me to say?

- Gandalf.

- Oh, Man, we got another one, huh?

Whatdya think, this is

some kind of gang hit?

Gotta be at least two or

three guys to pull this off.

No.

- This is one guy.

- One guy did all three? No shot.

One.

- You care to enlighten the Muggles, My Friend?

- That's two different movies, Tom.

Jesus, these guys were sick.

- It's one guy.

- One guy.
