A man who stood up for his beliefs.

Unlike that rat-f***...

...piece of sh*t...

...Tudeski.

Can you...

...ask Cynthia to join us, please?

-Want a drink?

-Oh, no, thanks.

-Have a drink.

-Scotch and soda, please.

I want you to understand...

...Frankie explained to me you're

having a problem with your conscience.

It's just that none of this

was my idea.

Think it was mine? No.

If I had my way, my father would

still be running things...

...and I'd be somewhere like....

I don't know.

...Aruba.

Aruba's not that nice.

Excuse me?

You may like it.

I honeymooned there, and that's

probably why I didn't like it.

The thing you gotta remember is, when

we're talking about Jimmy Tudeski...

...we're not talking about

a human being.

We're talking about a rodent.

We're talking about...

...vermin.

-Where was l?

-Vermin. I think vermin.

We're talking about someone--

Screw that!

Some thing...

...that doesn't deserve

to be breathing...

...the air.

You talking about yourself again?

Mr. Oseransky...

...this is Cynthia.

Jimmy's wife.

Cynthia, it seems that Mr.--

Doctor.

Excuse me?

Dr. Oseransky. He's a dentist.

Whatever.

It seems that our dentist friend here

knows where Jimmy is.

Come to collect on the contract?

Since I'm the one that found this guy,

I want it. The contract's mine.

Just as long as I'm in on the kill.

So long as I get full price.

I wanna see that spineless rat beg.

Money doesn't matter.

Now I've heard everything.

Don't believe it.

This one? Kill you for a quarter.

Frankie will accompany you

back to Canada.

You will lead him to the man

you believe is Jimmy Tudeski.

-But, sir--

-Frankie, you'll let me know?

All right then.

Mr. Gogolak.

My wife would make my life even

more miserable than it already is...

...if I didn't at least ask.

Is there gonna be

any kind of finder's fee for this?

Finder's fee?

I tell you what.

Tell your wife we'll

work something out.

Cynthia, don't rush off.

We should chat a little.

I'll call you in the morning.

We'll leave first thing.

You won't do anything stupid

like leaving me in the lurch?

Who did you talk to?

What do you mean?

-You know Frankie Figs?

-I know of him.

When I came back from lunch,

he was in my room.

-Frankie Figs was in your room?

-Yes.

-He knew that I knew where Jimmy is.

-What did he do?

After he played congas on my kidneys,

he took me to see Janni Gogolak.

You're kidding.

Who did you tell?

I wanna know who you told!

No one, I swear!

Well, then how--?

What am I gonna do?

I'll talk to you later.

-Room service.

-This is Dr. Oseransky in room 51 9.

I'm gonna need a bigger

bottle of scotch.

It's me.

How you doing?
