Ah.

Is he sick?

No. He's dead.

Forgive me for asking.

Were you close?

Yeah.

We were like brothers.

Then rest assured

he is in a better place now.

How do you know?

You ever been dead before?

There are many paths

to God, my son.

I pray that yours

will not be too difficult.

- There you are.

- Thank you, sir.

Hey, beautiful lines.

Yeah.

I guess $5 million will buy you

a lot of things like that, huh?

You see, my friend, I think we are

both looking for the same thing.

I'm not your friend

and I'm not looking for anything.

Okay, so let's cut

the bullshit, shall we?

You took something from us

and we want it back.

And I'm the guy

they picked to get it back.

However, if you help us,

we are willing to overlook

your part in it.

I have no idea

what you're talking about.

Hey, come on. It only took me

two days to find you.

And if I get those stones

without your help,

we are going to meet again.

Except this time you won't

even hear the hammer drop.

Are we clear?

Look, if it was up to my friends

you'd be dead already.

But I'm a patient man.

You've got one week, huh?

It was very nice meeting you.

Oh, hey, ladies.

How's it going?

What you guys up to tonight?

Oh come on,

don't be like that.

Could you get that door

for me, big man?

Sure, no problem.

Why don't you stop playing

like such a f***ing nit?

- I'm out.

- Shut your trap, you f*** stick.

In fact, take that.

Put your hands

where I can see 'em.

- Are you robbing us?

- Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Who the f*** do you think

you're talking to?

All right, now let's start over.

Okay, what can we do for you?

Now we're getting somewhere.

I'm looking for Vincent Long.

- Anybody seen him?

- No.

Of course

everyone's got amnesia.

But if you get

your memory back,

tell him an old friend is

looking for him, all right?

And now I'm robbing you.

- What the f*** are you looking at?

- Nothing.

- How's everything over here?

- Very good.

Okay? Good.

- All done?

- Yeah, I'm finished.

- I just need the check, please.

- Okay.

Here you go.

Slow night tonight, huh?

Yeah well, it pays the bills.

I'm really a singer. I'm not

gonna be here much longer.

And why is that?

Well, I pray every night

that God gets me

a record contract.

- Does He hear you?

- Of course He does.

I just have to wait my turn.

No no, that's for you.

Thank you.

Good things are coming

to you too.

- I promise.

Happy holidays.

You with me?

- You got a name?

- Sonny.

Like in "O what a sunny

f***ing day we're having?"

F*** you.

Who are you?

All right, Sonny.

Sleepy-time.

Are you out

of your f***ing mind?

Are you?

I'm looking for my so-called friend.

He shot me.
