Kill the Irishman Page #4

Yes. The two of them running

like their collection had been incarcerated.

Is this a position

that would interest you, Danny?

DANNY:
A man's gotta work, Mr Birns.

So many young people

don't understand that these days.

I swear I don't have it.

(UPBEAT JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING)

I swear I don't have it. I swear.

I swear I don't have it.

(GROANING)

WOMAN:
Agent Malloy will be with you

in just a moment, Mr Greene.

MALLOY:
Danny. How you doing?

Hanging in there.

You got anything for us?

Well, nothing of interest.

(ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC PLAYING)

MAN:
Oh, Danny Greene, huh?

How about you tell Shondor Birns

that I get Shorty's money first, baby.

Second.

Hey, baby, I can deal with that.

Here, take this.

No, thanks.

Tell Shondor sorry I was light last month.

Giants plus seven against the Eagles.

It's a lock, right? Wrong.

I'm Mike Frato, by the way.

Nice truck, Mike.

Thanks. I was hauling gravel

till I discovered garbage.

Big money in garbage. I highly recommend it.

You like what you do?

Yeah. Sure.

It's good to like what you do.

Keeps the blood pressure down.

(CHUCKLES) Nice Caddy, by the way.

JOE:
My wife met his wife Joan Greene

at a church luncheon. They hit it off.

That made things a little awkward.

JOAN:
Thanks, Clare. Thank you.

Bye. Thank you.

CLARE:
See you next Sunday.

Well, you missed an excellent sermon.

What the hell is this?

Joe and his wife gave us a lift.

Joe and his wife.

Father Kilden said it would be nice

if you came to one of his services.

You know, sometime this decade.

... to take the oath of induction...

Never should have taken away

this guy's title.

He wouldn't go to Vietnam.

DANNY:
I wouldn't go if I were drafted.

Why stick our nose in Vietnam?

English been doing that to the Irish

for 2,000 years.

And by the way?

How we gonna pay for it, huh?

Deficit spending, my ass.

Next thing you know

we'll be going off the gold standard.

The country's going to hell.

So is kids smoking pot.

If I were President,

I'd legalize the stuff and tax the sales of it,

like booze and cigarettes.

In two years' time

we'd be richer than Ken Croesus is.

Danny, the game. It's the Packers.

Go ahead.

You got anything to eat other than that?

That's Grade-A sirloin chuck.

We got no vegetables, no fruit, no nuts.

The stuff's got too much cholesterol.

What's cholesterol?

(BIKES REVVING)

(BIKERS SHOUTING)

(ROCK MUSIC BLARING)

(MUSIC STOPS)

Party's over.

You got five minutes to clear out.

Party ain't over.

You show yourself here again,

I'm coming over there.

And I'm knocking all your teeth out.

And I'm f***ing that hot little wife of yours

all night long while you watch.

(BIKERS LAUGHING)
