Yeah, I know. I know.

- She's a nice girl.

- That's right. She's a nice girl.

She comes from a good family.

So?

Hey!

You get your bike yet?

I'm still saving up for it.

Yeah, you've been saying that

as long as I known you.

I really do almost have

the loot to get it.

Yeah, sure.

Get up you bum!

Can't you see he's sleeping?

Two, three, four, five,

six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

Did I pick them, did I pick them?

Even called the round.

Pay up!

Hey, Willie.

- Ya.

- Count to ten...

- What's that?

- Like in the fight, count to ten.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

Six.

Seven.

Eight.

- Nine.

- How about a drink?

Ten.

Sure I'll have a drink. Why not?

Come on.

So, you really like bikes, huh?

When you gonna give me a ride?

Ah, as soon as I get it,

you got the first ride.

I'm thinking about

getting a Harley,

like Tommy has, or maybe an Indian.

Hey, slow down, will you?

I left half of my leg in Korea.

Where we going, anyway?

It's not far.

I don't feel like walking

all over hell, you know.

If you want people to watch, we

can stay right here on the street.

In here?

Behind the car.

Hey, don't do that!

You're gonna like this.

So am I.

Bingo!

Hey!

We're gonna bust their

balls. I guarantee it.

Now, grab a beer, Frankie.

Come on, what do you say.

I gotta go home to the wife.

Hey, come on now, f*** the wife.

Ah, here is a beer.

Harry, Harry, stamp the books,

so we can go home, please.

What? Oh, yeah.

Alex, some f***ing coffee

down here? Come on.

What do I gotta do, beg?

You f***ing Greek punk!

About f***ing time.

Oh, Vin. I think the love of

your life just walked in

and sat at the counter.

Yeah!

Where?

Why, Vincent, what a surprise.

When did you get out from

your incarceration?

Whoa, wait a minute,

what's he saying?

Don't you worry, Sal. If I

should choose to address you,

you can be sure it will

be in monosyllables.

May I join you

over there, Vincent?

Sure, Georgie boy.

Come on over here.

You getting comfortable

there, Georgie?

Oh, Vincent, you've

gotten so much bigger

and harder since

I last saw you.

Yeah, it's too bad I didn't

have you upstate with me.

I had a couple of sweet kids up there

but they didn't have chips like this.

You gorgeous man!

- You got my libido twitching.

- Twitching, huh?

May I please have a cup of coffee,

Alex, you big Greek fairy?

- Would you like some coffee, Vincent?

- What are you kidding me?

The coffee here tastes worse

than the dishwater they had upstate.

Huh, what? Now, wait a minute,

what, no, no coffee for me, Georgie?

I'm sure you have

your own money, Sal.

These bums never have any money.

Hey, who are you calling bums?
