Nothing.

You're gonna be great tonight.

Like you always are.

Eddie! If you can hear me,

call the police!

Oh, Christ.

Is this your car?

-No.

-Good answer.

Oh, hey, it 's not what you think.

I... do repos.

Bank foreclosed on this baby

yesterday. I 'm just taking her back.

What happened to you?

It 's a long story.

I gotta get out of this garage.

-I'll pay you for a ride out of here.

-Hate the stairs, huh?

Let me just get her started.

Go in the back, grab my ignition

crank. It 's long, blue handle.

Let 's just make sure.

What the...?

-Would you relax? It 's just Eddie.

-I don 't want to complicate things.

Oh, come on. What 's a little

Besides, I think that it 's your wife

who's doing all the complicating.

We're just leveling the

playing field. That 's all.

What 's going on, Tom?

I gotta meet Gavin.

Nothing.

Is he stillhittingon that girl

at your office?

What 's her name?

Rebecca?

What? Are you afraid

we 're gonna get caught?

First of all,

Ithink she's got her eye on you.

The way she's hanging all

overyou at the Christmas party.

I want everything from life.

I want the finer things.

You can't really blame her, though.

You're quite the catch, Tom Weaver.

-What about Victor?

-What about him?

-Do you still see him, right?

-For the moment.

Has he ever cheated on you?

-Why would you ask me that?

-Has he?

What difference does it make?

How would it make

you feelif he did?

Relieved.

How would he feel if he knew

that you were here with me?

God, ifVictor knew Iwas here...

he 'd go f***ing crazy.

He 'd kill me for sure, Tom.

He'd probably killus both.

Victor!

Who 's there?

-Son-of-a-b*tch.

-Victor...

Listen to me. I

want you to call the police. Now!

All right, step out of the car.

Come on.

Game 's over, pal. Get out.

Whoa! Stop right there!

Put your hand down!

the police now!
