Yeah, I did. I wasn't thinking.

It just came out.

So what are you doing

to get my father's money back?

Well, we put the word out.

- In the neighborhood.

- That's right.

They got the word out in the neighborhood.

So the word is out there, huh?

- The word.

- That's right.

With my money.

Find my f***ing money.

"Find my money."

If we knew where their money was,

it would mean we knew who robbed us.

Which would mean we were in on it,

which means they'd shoot us in the face.

F***ing Chechnyans.

Chechens, Marv.

They're from Chechnya,

but you call them Chechens.

Yeah, Chechnya.

I said that. You don't call people

from Ireland Irelandians, do you?

What the f*** are you talking about?

Yo, yo. What's the sunset

nightcap this evening?

- You bring your own cup?

- What, I just got out of the womb?

- Cheers.

- Salud.

So what up, Evandro?

You remember Marvin Stipler?

Cousin Marv?

He got pushed off his own book,

nine, ten years ago, by the Chechens.

His bar got held up. It's owned by

one of papa Umarov's shell companies.

What kind of dumb-ass

holds up one of his bars?

You got me.

Major crimes up on the Umarovs?

We barely survived the last budget cuts.

We're not sticking our heads up to go after

some Russian John Q barely knows exists.

Chechen.

You want him, he's all yours.

Hey, baby brother, you ready to eat?

- What?

- Are you ready to eat?

No.

I ate already.

- I ate already.

- When did you eat?

I ate.

Oh, no. Hey, hey, no.

Rocco, stay there. Stay.

Don't do it.

Don't do it. Don't jump.

Crikey Jesus.

That was close.

You gave me a heart attack.

- Where the f*** you been?

- Getting here.

- You got the money?

- No.

- What do you mean, no?

- I mean no 'cause f***ing Bri has it.

Bri has it.

- Did you tell your brother about me?

- No.

Why the f*** you hit Rardy so hard?

- I had to.

- You had to.

And I had to call an ambulance.

So there's an ambulance and cops.

What's with his watch?

People noticed it's broke. Tell him

to get a new one and get rid of that one.

Today.

What's the next step?

When do we hit a real drop bar?

Let's just assume I'm not some a**hole

without a plan, okay?

When an airplane goes down, what's

the safest airline to fly the next day?

The one that had the crash.

Right. There you go.

So we just wait.

I don't understand

a f***ing word you're saying.

It's like you're speaking Brazilian.

Just let me take care of it, okay?

Keep your head down.

It's not Brazilian.

Brazilians speak Portuguese.

Where you going?

I'm leaving.

Stay here.

We can't be seen together, genius.

- F*** you. How long?

- I don't know. Ten minutes!

Sit.

Sit. No, that's standing. Come here.
