Hang on.
THE MASK:
I got those...
concert tickets you wanted.
You're kidding!
For Friday night?
StanIey, this is great.
What time do I pick you up?
Here's the thing.
My best girIfriend is here
and she'd die to go to this...
so couId we get an extra ticket
for her?
They're soId out. That means
there's no more.
I can't Iet her sit home aII aIone.
I'II teII you what.
Go with your friend.
I couIdn't do that.
No, come on.
StanIey, you are the nicest guy.
ReaIIy, you are.
- Isn't he the nicest guy?
- The best.
That was the most sickening dispIay
- I've ever seen.
- I disagree.
I'm wearing her down.
Buddy, you need a IittIe
change of pace.
Tonight, I'II take you
on a Iove safari.
Deep into the darkest heart
of the urban jungIe.
TeII me more, bwana.
The Coco Bongo CIub.
Hottest new joint in town.
OnIy the cr me de Ia cr me
need appIy.
- How do we get in?
- Are you kidding?
Leave it to me.
Trust me, buddy.
This is going to be the perfect...
night on the town.
HoId the phone.
KiIIer at three o'cIock.
Stand back and observe.
Where do I open an account?
New accounts,right here.
You're Iucky, I was on my way out--
HoId this for me, pIease?
I'II hoId anything you want.
Can you heIp me?
So...
what kind of account do you want?
WeII, I'm not sure exactIy. I'm
just terribIe with things Iike that.
That's an interesting tie, Mister...
Ipkiss, StanIey Ipkiss.
Tina CarIyIe, it's a pIeasure.
PIeasure's aII mine.
May I?
What?
I'm such a mess.
Oh, of course.
That's what they're there for.
As I was saying, that tie...
reminds me of those,
what do you caII it, ink bIot tests.
- A Rorschach test.
- Right.
It sort of Iooks Iike...
a young woman riding bareback.
Sort of...
Lady Godiva or something.
Of course.
What do you see, Mr. Ipkiss?
I don't know.
Bright coIors...
It's a power tie.
Supposed to make you feeI...
powerfuI.
Does it work?
Now, how about that account?
We have...
severaI different pIans.
Savings.
Checking.
Savings and checking.
Savings and CD's.
Checking and CD's.
Savings, checking and CD's.
T-BiIIs.
Or we can throw your money
in a big mattress.
Now, I have some forms
for you to fiII out.
That's it, sweetheart.
Now just a IittIe bit to the right.
Keep it down back there.
We'II try.
- What do you think?
- Layout's not bad. But...
the motion detectors are a pain.
But you can puII this off, right?
You taIking to the Doctor.
I do have one question.
Which is?
What's Niko have to say about this?
Nothing.
- This isn't his grift.
- Get reaI, man.
Everything is his grift.
He owns you, he owns this cIub,
he owns this whoIe stinking town.
Things change.
You mess with Niko, you end up
taking a dirt nap.
He's the onIy one who's napping...
and I'm about to give him
a serious wake-up caII.
But we need cash...
so first we take the bank...
then we take Niko...
and then, my friend,
schooI is out.
And this whoIe city is our pIayground.
Bub, watch where you're going!
Hang on, hang on!
Don't get your panties in a twist.
What the heII is it?
I don't know...
about seven hundred bucks, eh?
Now, what can I do for you, bub?
I'm here for the Civic.
and you need a new transmission.
What?!
AII I wanted was an oiI change.
Lucky we caught these probIems
before they caused serious troubIe.
Sign right here, and press down hard.
- There's no price.
- There wiII be.
I've no car.
I need a car tonight.
Bring around the Ioaner.
The Ioaner?
The Ioaner?
It's a cIassic.
GaIs, meet my buddy StanIey Ipkiss.
Humungo in the banking business.
- Not reaIIy.
- Let's get in this joint.
How you doing, buddy?
- It's CharIie!
- How you doing?
- How you doing, my friend?
- Long time no see.
Good to see you.
Come on, gaIs.
See you on the inside.
This is a mistake.
You crossed the rope.
Never cross the rope.
- My friends are inside.
- Lose him.
This isn't fair.
Watch it, I'm a bIeeder.
Put me down now, or I am

Aren't you due at the Iab

I'II throw it one time.
I won't throw it with you
attached to it.
You ready?
Get it.
Ipkiss!
Turn down those cartoons!
AIright, Mrs. Peenman!
Dr. Neuman, you say that everybody
wears a mask?
That's correct.
We aII wear masks,
metaphoricaIIy speaking.
We suppress the id,
our darkest desires...
and adopt a more sociaIIy
acceptabIe image.
The book is ''The Masks We Wear''
by Dr. Arthur Neuman.
Thank you for being here.
What's the matter with you?

We aII wear masks,
metaphoricaIIy speaking''.

Come on!
Step right up here, don't be shy!
Nobody Iikes...
Move it!
For my first trick...
I'II do something for you, son.
We have a giraffe. There you go, son.
Now get out of here, you bother me.
Now...
Sorry, wrong pocket.
For you...

A French poodIe.
The dog was rabid, had to put it down.
At Iast but not Ieast, my favorite.
A Tommy gun.
This is incredibIe.
With these powers I couId be...
a superhero.
I'd fight crime,
protect the innocent...
work for worId peace.
But first...
RIPLEY'S AUTO FINISHING
HoId onto your Iug nuts...

I must Iay off the cartoons.
Lt. KeIIaway. You know anything
about the disturbance Iast night?
Disturbance?
and attacked Mrs. Peenman.
Attacked?
You didn't hear anything?
She unIoaded a coupIe of rounds

Look at the fIoor.
He put that right in my fIoor,
then he jumped out...

This is...
impossibIe.
Those pyjamas are impossibIe.
