-If you want me...

-Don't you dare.

I'm gonna find the guy.

Well, you won't

have to look far.

[footsteps fading]

[footsteps approaching]

When he didn't show up,

I knew.

So the police said

that it was a suicide?

That's how they see it.

And how do you see it?

He was a mess,

like you said.

I think somebody

made him a mess.

Doesn't really matter anymore,

does it?

Doesn't it?

Why do you care so much?

Ask me something else.

You ever just want

to disappear?

I already have.

No, I mean it.

Go some place where

no one can find you.

I've never been

to the ocean.

Yes, what?

What?

Any other day.

There's another day.

[tram rumbling]

[telephone ringing]

Yeah.

[woman on phone, indistinct]

I don't know what...

Slow down!

What the hell...

[indistinct voice continues]

Yeah?

Yeah, you stole my lighter.

Have you been to St-Paul's?

Can you meet me there?

Jesus, not since

I was baptized.

And not today, kid.

[siren wailing in distance]

?

Son of a b*tch.

You ever hear the one

about the tallest detective?

You saved me a trip.

What would you do if you

were in my shoes, Charlie?

-I'd burn my socks.

-Funny.

Ticket at the airport,

carrying more bread

than Hansel and Gretel

and your partner in crime

laying dead in the morgue.

That funny too?

Her name is Kat.

I wanna see her.

Her family is here

and they've never

heard of you.

Weren't you due

a promotion like

three years ago, Escobar?

Meanwhile the guy you set up

takes a nose dive

into the whirlpool.

-They're connected.

-By you.

They're connected by you!

I didn't buy that

plane ticket.

Right, it was the knockout

with the wad of cash.

I've had that same dream.

Only my wife's

the knockout

and she's carrying

a six pack of beer

and a bucket of wings.

Your wife likes

Polish sausage,

mac, trust me.

Whoa! I'm still

in the room.

[knocking]

We'll need your passport.

You can eat it.

Come on,

where's the rest of it?

No, no, no, no, no.

We don't just walk up here.

What do we do?

Well, if we're lucky,

we schedule an appointment.

Appointments

are for a**holes.

You probably

make 'em all the time.

[elevator dinging]

[man speaking, indistinct]

[man]

His mother told him to stop

'cause he ran out of fuel...

But Tesla's mind was already

busy concentrating that...

Did I miss anything good?

Secrets of

the universe revealed.

[man]

Like the charge

on the cat's back,

these are examples

of the primitive effect

depicting the energy fields

that surround

every living thing.

Tesla was one of the first

to experiment

with these energies

in a field so often

dismissed as more spiritual

than scientific.

Yet so many of his imaginings
