Pawn

- Hello.

- Hey, Yuri.

Good to see you, Will.

Charlie.

- What do you say, Will?

- Slow night, huh?

Got kinda busy

about 10 minutes ago.

These winter colds are just the worst.

You know, if my shift

moves any slower,

I think I will be

going backwards.

- Time to play, you ready?

- Ah, I'm kinda busy right now.

You want some pie?

- Oh, pie.

- Pie.

No, I just want some coffee.

Coffee.

You got it.

How long that pot

been sitting out there?

I just made it-- fresh pot--

right before it got busy, Will.

- Hey, Will.

- Aaron.

Want some more coffee?

You haven't even put any coffee

in my cup yet, Charlie.

Damn.

God damn it, Aaron.

Um, how are you progressing

with that coffee?

Sorry, I'm--

I'm not real with it today,

you know what I mean?

You want cream and sugar?

Cream.

- Cream.

- Do you want cream and sugar

with the coffee?

I'll take it as it is.

Whose move is it?

Hmm, Charlie?

Charlie? Charlie?

Charlie?

Whose move is it?

Your move.

It's your move, Will.

That's right.

Next Tuesday evening.

Mm-hmm.

How you doing?

I've been down to the diner,

it's a mess.

Look, is this necessary?

- I already gave a statement.

- I understand

you've been having

a tough time lately.

You could say that.

I've been working

for extra jobs

just to try to keep

my head above water.

Man

Everybody likes Charlie.

Anything you don't like about him?

Anything unusual?

- Like what?

- I don't know.

Kind of thing maybe

you wouldn't expect

at an all-night diner.

You know who owns the place.

Yeah, I do.

Tell me who was there that night.

Just take your time.

Think a minute.

I-- I don't know.

What do you mean you don't know?

You spent enough time there.

Who was there that night?

Just customers.

I'm gonna need you to tell me

how it all went down.

I need $2. That's it.

I don't need

an extra day off or anything.

Good evening,

ladies and gentlemen.

- What the hell is this?

- I would've thought that was

f*cking obvious, mate.

Okay, everybody in the corner.

Move. Move!

On your feet!

I'm not gonna say it again.

Get in the corner!

Move!

Come on, love.

Now!

Let's go, on your feet.

Let's go!

On your way.

Right, if you're smart,

you're scared.

If you're not,

you should be.

I don't want any heroes

and I don't want any grief.

You do what I say,

when I say it,

and everybody will be able

to walk out of here.

- You got that, geezer?

- Yeah.

Exactly as I say or I blow you

against that f*cking wall.

Right?

Now if you'd be so kind

just to step out from behind there.

Let's go.

Eh... hey.

- My hip.

- 911 emergency.

What's the nature of your call?

All right, son, on your feet.

Let's go, move!

Hey, cheeky.

- No.

- Let's go.

Come on.

There's a good girl.

Crawling under there

isn't gonna help you.

Doing what you're told might.

There, it's all right.

You'll be fine.

Right, mobiles, watches,

and wallets

into the bag provided by

my associate here.

Now, I know you're all scared

and that's a good thing.

If you're scared, you're a lot less

likely to do something stupid.

Because if you're thinking of

doing something stupid,

I guarantee you will regret it,

but only for about the half second

it'll take me to turn,

aim in your general direction,

and pull the trigger.

I have no more desire

to be here than you do.

So if everybody does what I say,

when I say it,

things will go a lot smoother.

- I didn't think you'd come.

- Me, either.

I promise everything's

gonna be different now.

We're gonna pick up Bonnie,

is that okay?

Yeah.

- It's just--

- I know what you're thinking.
