We take.

It's a lot of money, Jake.

- And that's what we're here for.

- You sure about this?

If it checks out.

If it checks out, I'm in.

- Yeah, what's up?

- Thought you'd wanna know,

your Haitian buddy?

His lawyerjust filed on you

for excessive force.

All right. The guy was 6'5", he was resisting.

What was I supposed to do?

Yeah, well, you must've hurt his feelings.

The bank. Hey, listen, what about the C-4

they used to blow the elevators?

Well, from the taggants, forensics traced it

to a mining company out of Nevada,

stolen about... About two months ago.

All right. And what about the marked bills?

Bank finally sent over a list.

Max is gonna fax out a memo right now.

Listen, man,

it's been a couple of weeks now.

You hear anDhing from Amanda?

Listen, I appreciate it,

but I don't need any help.

We can work it out on our own. But thanks.

All right. I'll talk to you later.

All right, so, for this route

Ghost is talking about.

The only place we stand a chance

is right there.

- What's there?

- It's an old subway car turnaround.

It's large enough,

and it runs parallel to the street.

It's kind of perfect.

I mean, we can get access on Hope Street,

but I say we hold them up

at Olive and Fourth.

All right.

And we need to get down there

first and get some intel on,

you know, street patterns, traffic density,

that sort of thing, but it looks good.

Once we determine the blast radius

and street density,

I can tell you how much C-4

you're gonna need to score.

What about the exits?

Work in progress, G.

You know, we got to get down there first,

check it out.

- Give me some exits.

- You got it.

- It's good work.

- Cool.

- All right, gang.

- Good to go.

Easy money, baby. Same as before.

All the cash is in the front truck.

Second truck's totally empty. Just an escort.

Two men up front, two men in the back.

Pump action 12-gauge

and.40 caliber Glocks.

Maybe 9mm.

They may have upgraded

their communication by now,

but the same standard bulletproof windows.

They ain't gonna know what hit them.

Here we go. Must've taken up the tracks.

That's it.

Yeah, he's still working it.

Got brand-new wheels to show for it, too.

All right, let's go.

All right, wait for my go-ahead.

- Good morning, Franco. Nice wheels!

- What do you guys want?

- Get up against the car.

- Turn around.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, I'm clean, man.

Hands off. All right?

Why don't you move your car?

What do you know about some

C-4 boosted out of Nevada?

Nevada? I don't know nothing about that.

Come on, if it's guns or explosives,

you heard something about it.

You know, you get busted again,

you're facing 10 years minimum.

- You know that, right?
