Yes, I can almost feel it right now.

How about this?

Why don't you just give me the boy?

All right?

He can sleep on my couch.

I got cold beer in the fridge.

I have ESPN on the TV.

I have a 9mm Beretta.

I have a Ruger

Security Six .357 Magnum,

a Remington 86 tactical shotgun.

So you tell Hagan's men

if they wanna get this boy,

they're gonna have

to go through me!

Do you understand that,

you third-grade motherfuckers?

Lieutenant, I realize how much

this case means to you.

How's he doing?

Well, he's better than I expected.

He's a tough kid.

I want you to tell him

something for me, please.

I want you

to tell him that I said I'm sorry.

Did you hear that?

Tell him I said I'm sorry.

You should tell him

you're sorry, too.

I'm sorry to take up so much

of your time, Marshal.

I know that the federal government

really doesn't--

That's what we're doing.

The unit's open, it's all clear.

- All right.

Why don't you go grab

what you need

and then we'll get you

out of town.

Hello.

My man pulled

your girl's phone records.

Now she dials this number

late at night,

you talk for hours.

See, now you and I,

we never got to talk,

you know, just us.

Yeah, that's a shame.

I'm guessing

you're with the police.

You see,

I can talk to you

in an honest way.

See, in a way they can't.

So let's just--

let's just talk.

Just us, come on.

All right.

It's so simple.

Don't testify

and this will all be over with.

No, it'll be over

once you're sentenced.

You-- you've got--

you've got that

all wrong, see, Jeremy.

See, I go to prison

and I keep running my crew.

I'm gonna keep a contract out

on you and your girlfriend

for as long as it takes.

And this won't be over

until the both of you are dead.

Now-- now that can

happen anywhere.

Yeah.

Let me see.

How about

Monticello, Indiana?

At the lake house,

where your girl's family

has reunions.

I think the next one's in July.

I can't wait to go to that one.

Hey, when are the two

of you getting married?

I bet that's gonna be

a special day, huh?

You gonna invite all your

family and friends...

Craig, Adam,

Trey!

Carlos...

and how about

a couple of my guys?

Or maybe I'll just wait.

You know,

maybe I'll just wait for years

until you and your girl,

you got some kids of your own.

Then my men..

They'll come and kill them

while you watch.

You see, what you don't

understand, Jeremy, is...

prison time

ain't nothing but time.

Now you wanna live

the rest of your life

knowing that one day--

one day, son,

I will find you?

No, you're not gonna touch her.

I'll kill you before I let that happen.

Look,

testify, don't testify,

you're both dead anyway.
