Henry's Crime Page #5

---

every moment, every word,

every breath should be a risk.

Where is your risk, Djula?

I don't know, Darek. In your ass?

Good! Finally she's listening! Hah!

From the top, everybody.

I'm going to grab some coffee.

Well, you do that, Djula.

Go and grab a coffee.

Let's all have coffee and think about

what we're willing to risk in life.

What are you doing here?

You here to sue me?

- No.

- Good.

(DAREK) 20 minutes. I don't care.

- Is it always like that?

- What?

- That.

- In rehearsal?

- Yeah.

- It's a process.

Looks complicated.

Yeah, it is.

- Madame Julie.

- Coffee, Pierre.

("JE VEUX VIVRE" FROM

GOUNOD'S "ROMEO ET JULIETTE")

You want one?

- Sure.

- Deux.

- Deux cafs.

- Oui.

Thanks.

(SIGHS)

You looked like you were listening.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

Really?

In a way.

Yeah. Yeah, I wasn't.

I wasn't. I was playing it safe.

You know, "The Cherry Orchard"

was Chekhov's last play.

He was dying when he wrote it.

It's kind of perfect.

- Why?

- Because it's my last play, too.

Here in Buffalo.

I'm leaving. Right after this.

So who are you?

You mean my name?

OK.

I'm Henry.

Well, I wanna thank you

for not suing me, Henry.

Au revoir, Madame Julie.

Ciao, ciao.

Mr Saltzman, please tell the Board

why you believe

we should grant you a parole.

Come on, Mr Saltzman.

What have you got for us this time?

Mr Saltzman?

Come on, Max.

(DOOR BUZZER)

See you, George.

- I knew you could do it.

- Yeah.

Um...

...where is your car?

I don't have a car.

You don't have a car?

I sold it.

Well, what is the matter with you?

You come to pick me up

and you don't have a car.

That is not the way

you pick up a person!

Yes, it is. I'm here.

I'm picking you up.

Look, I really don't know about this.

I think I'm making

a pretty big mistake.

Look, Max,

the bus station's just a short walk.

Bus station?

Don't worry, Max.

Carl? Hey, Dave!

Let me in, will you? Open up!

Max, it's gonna be OK.

Are you kidding me?

This is your plan?

An old cartoon in a pissoir?

- It's a start.

- No, this is 80 years ago.

Wait. I tell you what we do.

We do it the old-fashioned way.

- We go in with guns.

- No guns.

- Why?

- Someone could get hurt.

That's very sweet of you, Henry.

Maybe the tunnel's still there, Max.

Yes, I'm sure it is, right (!)

- Maybe it is.

- Maybe it is.

But maybe it's not.

I tell you what we do.

First we go to this bank of yours

and see if that's there.

It is.

I'm sure it is. But maybe it's not.

Now, which kind of account

would you like to open?

Well, which kind have you got?

Er... savings, interest-only,

commercial...

Excuse me for interrupting.

I was just thinking,

it's such a small world.
