He takes it.

Chicken blood.

Excuse me, Sal?

You said that he was a mouse, so that

would be mouse blood, not chicken blood.

Right?

Go on, Sal, I'm here if you need me.

The salient point is...

...I must continue to live with my lovely wife

and tears on her pillow are a plethora to me.

Anathema to me!

You see what they got me doing?

- I can't even talk straight!

- Take it easy.

So...

...l'm giving you both another chance

to redeem yourselves.

- Thank you, we won't disappoint you.

- No, we won't.

Of that I'm sure.

Frankie...

Hey, kid. Go long.

Why don't you fill the boys in.

A mission of absolution.

It's simple. You take this envelope

to JFK Airport...

- No problem.

...where you catch a flight for Sydney.

Wow, that's...

You know, Louis has got this thing...

Yeah, my mama got the gout

and if I'm not home to rub her feet...

...her ankles swell up

and she can't take her house shoes off.

- This really isn't much warning.

- You need a warning?

- No.

- Well, then...

From Sydney, you take the Old South Road

due north to a place called Coober Pedy...

...where you meet a man named Mr. Smith.

You give this envelope to Mr. Smith.

Mr. Smith is expecting you no later

than noon, local time. You will not be late.

What's in here, man?

You will not look in that envelope

under any circumstances, understood?

- I can't hear you...

- Understood?

Oh, yeah.

Should you run into any problems,

you can reach Mr. Smith at this number.

Get out of here.

I can't believe that stuff happened.

I'm wearing my lucky jacket.

Lucky jacket? You've worn that jacket

for over 10 years...

...and luck has never even

remotely come near you.

Australia?

And then they're just gonna turn

around and come right back again.

- It won't be so bad.

- Yeah, why not?

We're canceling their return trip.

- Louis, how much time we got left?

- Fourteen hours.

When is the food coming? I'm starving.

Don't even worry about that.

I got you covered.

Are you, like, 4 years old?

If you're not hungry,

I can put these back in my pocket.

Wait. I think I'll have this one.

Good choice.

What is that? And why is my mouth on fire?

That's the new Super Atomic Jaw Buster!

Extra hot!

Are you trying to kill me?

There's nothing wrong with this!

Stop acting like a baby!

All right, let me up.

- What for?

- How many things could I have to do?

My bad.

Hey, how are you doing?

Good.

Oh, my God!

Charlie!

- Someone's in here!

- It's me, Charlie. Open up!

- What?

- Check this out.

- You're not supposed to open this.

- That's, like, 50 grand.

Oh, my God.

Something doesn't smell right. Look at it!

I know, I'm looking!

I've never seen so much green
