They're fighting again!
Oh, boy.
Don't! Wait! Not my homework!
No! Stop it! No!
Problem, gentlemen?.
Hey, dork-brain!
If you weren't a girl,
I'd beat your face off.
If you weren't a girl,
I'd beat your face off.
You're calling me a girl?.
You called me one!
You asked for it.
Now get out of here!
Forget those guys.
They're jealous because you're
smart and funny.
And girls like that.
What girls?.
Lots of girls.
I mean... I like you.
I don't like you. Now everybody
thinks I need a girl to fight for me.
You are a dork-brain.
My nose!
Wimp!
Moe and Larry in the house.
Grant, what have we got out back?.
All clear, sir.
Matthews, what do you got?.
Returnable cans, sir.
I'm up to 75 cents.
Hey, we got a cab.
Here comes Curly.
The Three Stooges.
Check it out, lvan's packing.
Thank you! We've got a briefcase.
Hart, waiting for visual confirmation.
No disc yet.
Suitcase is opening.
This woman's ass is in the way.
Hart, we can't see a damn thing.
We need to see the discs.
-This broad's got two asses!
-Do something!
Excuse me.
You wanting something else?.
Yeah. You know what?.
I really love this borscht.
Or, as they say in Russian:
We got the discs.
We're moving in!
Get down!
Keep your hands where I can see them!
No English.
Nobody moves until I see
some goddamn "Lazhitsa na pol"!
Sir, he's turning purple!
Hart, until we secure, you stay.
That is one really, really
purple Russian, sir!
He's still armed! Nobody moves!
Hands up! Back off!
No, sir. He's not gonna die.
He's not good enough for that.
His victims didn't get a chance
to choke on a peanut, did they, sir?.
Now you're going down.
Drop the guns or I'll kill her.
Ivan, out the back.
You're not killing anyone.
Party's over!
How's your head, my little piroshki?.
This is gonna put you away
for a long time.
Let's get that ambulance in here!
-Shut up!
-Stay with me!
-l' m sorry.
-Don't be sorry. You did a great job!
Nice work. See you back there.
Come on, Hart. The van's waiting.
I got Grant shot.
I shouldn't have moved.
Come on, you made a choice.
It was wrong, but that's it.
It's over.
By the way, you look like hell.
-Morning, Mrs. Schwartz. Schnatzie.
-Good morning, Gracie.
Hart.
Yes, sir.
ET A, 20 minutes.
No problem. Breakdown?
Yes, sir. Negative.
Do not need assistance.

Hey, you cannot park--
It's an emergency. Official business.
Aside, please. Thank you.
Official business. Step aside.
Hey, get lost! I'm waiting here.
FBl. You might want
to stay out of this.
Excuse me.
Sir, ma'am, please back off.
All right. I need eight double-tall--
Eight double-tall lattes.
One with no foam.
Five decaf lattes with a long straw.
Four caramel macchiattos.
Double up on the cup.
Two blueberry scones
with the little granules on top...
...and one Starbucks compilation CD.
No! I would like....
What's going on?. Where's McDonald?.
Could we put out an APB
on my Frappuccino?.
It's in the bag. Did he say anything
about last night?.
Relax. Don't annoy him.
Don't say anything. Don't argue.
I don't argue. I never argue.
When do I argue?.
I might have a heated discussion
with somebody.
Is this you not arguing?.
Because you suck at it.
Morning, everybody.
Morning, sir. It's....
Sir.
Okay, everybody.
I know you' re all concerned
about Grant's condition.
So l' m happy to report...

Okay, everybody.
So much for the good news. We got
