What?!

Lost the hearing

in his right ear.

He's been blowing

stuff up ever since.

Handsome Rob.

Premier wheel man.

Once drove all the way

from Los Angeles

just so he could set the record

for longest freeway chase.

-You're a heartbreaker...

-You know, he got 1 1 0

Iove letters

sent to his jail cell

from women

who saw him on the news?

You're a heartbreaker

Dream-maker

Love-taker

Don't you mess around,

no, no, no...

And you?

I never heard

how you got your start.

Me?

Well, I've been a thief

since I had baby teeth.

Okay, you both know what to do.

Cough it up, now!

Come on, now,

shake it, shake it, baby, ho!

One, two, three, baby...

Watch it, spaz!

Hey, now, do, re, me, baby...

Hey, what's your problem, man?

A-B-C, it's easy

As one, two, three...

Hey, Charlie.

Good to see you, man.

-Looking good.

-Yeah?

-Charlie Hustle.

-Good to see you.

Hello, Charlie.

Rob, what's up?

Good?

Guys...

Stella Bridger.

Hi.

How you doing?

Nice to meet you.

Phones?

Yeah, they're all

fresh and clean,

I got internal chips in them.

Please change them twice a day.

We will get heat on line.

I.D.s?

"James Hymen?"

Come on, man, one time,

give me a cool name.

Try lifting some weights.

-Try lifting up these.

-Guys, enough.

Come on, we leave

tomorrow, all right?

Let's go.

Hey, Charlie...

Handsome, can you help

him with the bike?

Yeah, help Knievel set up

for his next jump.

Like a sound you hear

that lingers in your ear

But you can't forget,

from sundown to sunset

No, no

It puts a brand-new kind

of thinkin' in your mind

And you can't go wrong

'Cause you're groovin'

all day long, ha-ha!

California soul

Ooh-ooh-ooh

California soul...

Man, out of all of the places

for a thief to hide,

this joker picked Hollywood.

He's a punk,

but he ain't stupid.

All right...

we need to figure out a way

to get in Steve's house

and make a video blueprint

of the interior.

I want audio surveillance

on his phone.

Oh, yeah, I been wanting

to try something.

I crack into the phone company's

remote monitoring system,

and fool it into thinking

there's a legal tap on the line.

Just reroute the digital copies

of the calls to our own

listening post.

I been doing it

to my ex for years.

How long?

No-- how long will it take?

Not how long have you

been doing it to your ex.

I'll burn through the night;

I'll have it running by morning.

Sorry I'm late.

We got to work on getting

Steve out of the house.

Stella, how much time you need

with the Worthington?

Five minutes flat.

Don't be cocky, young lady.

It's not the same as opening

a safe for the police.

The perspiration

on your fingertips,

your heart's pounding
