We Own the Night Page #3

of this conversation we had.

That's why your brother was here,

because of this club.

Your brother says that you've been

using your mother's name these days.

Yeah, just for the business.

You know, it's easy.

"Bobby Green"?

Well, people can pronounce it,

you know?

That Puerto Rican you brought.

She been hooking you up?

- What do you mean?

- Come on, I can smell it on you.

You keep laughing.

Your mother, rest in peace,

I think she was too easy on you.

All right.

I gotta go, Pop.

Bobby, let me tell you something.

Sooner or later,

either you're gonna be with us...

...or you're gonna be

with the drug dealers.

This is like a war out there.

Now, do you understand that?

Do you?

I'll see you.

Careful.

It's getting late. How are

the kids doing? They tired yet?

They're always tired. They worry

about you when you're out at night.

- Baby, sit up straight.

- Baby, do me a favor.

Don't start, all right?

Excuse me, everybody.

Can I have your attention, please?

Hi, my name is Deputy Commissioner

Spiro Giavannis...

...and we're here this holiday season

to honor one of our new leaders...

Let's get out of here...

...and go party with Jumbo.

- Why?

Baby, your family don't like me,

I don't care. I'm here for you, okay?

F*** them. Let's go. It's boring.

- They're stiffs. Yeah.

- Really?

I'm sure the chief would like

to say a few words.

So I'd like to bring him

up here now. Chief?

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Yeah, chief.

You know, I used to tell my kids,

"Work first, play later."

And my son Joseph

really took that to heart.

Been a real fighter over the years.

He overcome the dyslexia...

...and eventually wound up

graduating John Jay as salutatorian.

And hey...

I'm very proud here tonight.

I wanna thank you all for coming.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Before I say anything else...

...one of our brothers was killed

in the line of duty last night.

Edward Conlon was gunned down...

...serving a warrant

on Northern Boulevard.

Hey. Come here.

The clock is about to strike 11.

I thought we might be able to give

a moment of silence to remember.

- Come on, get over here.

- Which one?

Come on, I'm meeting with Buzhayev

tonight. Which one? This one?

That one. Hey, baby.

- I got good news.

- Yeah?

So I talked to my mom yesterday.

She's feeling better.

So I can move in whenever I want.

Really?

- Don't joke with me.

- I'm not.

I like it. I like it.

It's official. You get your side

of the bed, I get mine.

Seriously, it's great news.

- Hey, I got you something.

- What?

You've been working so hard lately.

- What is it?

- Open it up.

- Now?

- Go ahead, open it.

It's nice.

I like it.
