Scenes of the Crime

Harvey was saying she was going after him.

Hurry up, men.

- Hey, Frank. - What's up?

Don't hurt yourself.

Give him the envelope.

Thanks. All right, buddy.

Six months away and you choose the Philippines.

Nah, I changed my mind.

I hear Europe is nice this time of year so I'm going to go over there.

Yeah, Europe's good any time of year.

You been working out?

Not lately. Why? Do I look bad?

- No, you look good. - Thank you.

This is what you're going to do: Disappear until Friday.

Don't come by here or the club, and don't talk to anybody.

None of them broads, no partying, nothing.

- Lay low, you hear me? - Absolutely.

Lay low.

See you on Friday when we're done.

Okay, if I have problems, should I give you a call?

All right.

Yeah, I just pulled over.

Look, I don't need to recap. I know my job.

All right.

Deli opens at 7:00.

And I make my delivery between 7:15 and 7:30.

Look, don't worry about Trevor, okay? I got the story down cold.

I have a flat tire. I pull over to change it and he escapes.

"Hey, Trevor, I'm sorry. Mistake."

No, what's vital is, the second I pull over...

you pay me $250,000.

Then I'll slash the tire. That's our agreement.

I'm at the gate.

No, I got your page. I'm sorry, I was kind of tied up.

No way, I am not selling it. Sorry, man.

Friday?

Friday's all right, I got to be back by noon, though.

Hold on a second, will you?

- Get the $200. - Okay.

Yeah, I know, the gray Caddy, the shocks are blown on it.

Yeah, what about the blue van? I got the heater working like a charm.

Okay. All right.

Listen, about that $200 I lent you.

Yeah, you think I-Okay.

All right, boss, I'll see you tomorrow. All right, bye.

I'm going to do a pickup for him tomorrow and I'll get it from him then.

You're driving your gangster friend around on the day of your bachelor party?

- He likes me. What do you want me to say? - You could try "no" for once.

We have a level of mutual respect going on. Wouldn't be smart to let him down now.

Mutual respect? You're his driver.

Yeah, but $600 a pop is good dough for my shop.

You don't have a shop.

I'm getting there, aren't I?

That's why I got to establish a good relationship with the clientele.

Baby, you don't need clientele like that.

You know, you're working for them, you're working with them...

pretty soon you'll turn into one of them.

Clientele is clientele.

Rick is dangerous, okay?

Listen to me.

I know what the man wants, he wants respect, okay?

So I give him respect.

That's it, I'm not committing any crimes.

So you're just going to ditch Stan and John and Billy?

You better come up with a good excuse.

Would you just look at yourself?

- What? - Look at yourself.

Why, what's wrong?

Nothing's wrong. Come here.

What?

- You're just very beautiful. It's ridiculous. - Would you stop it.

- I hate you. - You're so pretty.

- I hate you. - All right, listen to me.

I'll tell the fellows that I got no interest throwing dollar bills...

at some little stripper who's not half as pretty as you are.

And I'll spend Friday afternoon here with you.

All right?

Hey, tough guy. Don't go doing anything stupid.

Don't worry. You know me.

- Did you pick up the present? - Yeah.

Good. Let's go.

- You know where South Parkfield is? - Yeah, sure.

All right, get us to 9200 and then swing around back.

I thought we were doing a pickup.

That's a nice jacket, man.

It's a good cut on you. It looks good.

- How much you pay for it? - $220.

It's worth about $1,000, $1,200, something like that.

$220?

I got an idea.

Take the $20.

Forget the $200 I spotted you and the jacket's mine. What do you say?

Tell you what, kid...

forget about the money and the jacket and just drive, okay?

Shut up, just drive.

Okay, I'm sorry, you're the boss.

- Get into the alley. - Okay.

- Hello. - I have a delivery from Mr. Wayne.

- Who are you? - A messenger.

I got a delivery here for Mr. Berg's son.

- What is it? - It's a gift for Blake.

You'll have to come back later.

Wait. It's a surprise for his birthday.

His birthday isn't until next week.

- Ready for your test? - Dad, please.

Come on now.

Spell "Christmas."

What you going to give me if I get it right?

I'm not going to give you anything. Spell it.

C- H...

I don't know about that, I'm just a delivery person.

Mr. Wayne asked me to drop it off, that's all I know.

I don't know anything about any gift.

Of course you wouldn't. Then it wouldn't be a surprise.

Can you take it?

- S-T... - Careful, now.

M-A-S.

- You sure about that "T"? - Yeah.

- You're positive? - Yeah.

You are correct.

Last night, for a fact, I know, Mr. Wayne spoke with Mr. Berg.

They know all about it. I am just delivering a gift, that's all. Please.

He didn't tell me anything.

You have to wait and talk to him. He'll be back soon.

The kid comes back, he knows it's a surprise...

- and I'm out of a job. You understand? - I can't open the door. I'm sorry.

- What's in the box? - Just a little girl. Her name is Fanny.

- What's yours? - Teresa.

Say hello to Teresa - Hi.

- Hello, Fanny. Hi. - She's sweet?

So would you mind? Just open it up and...

take Fanny off my hands, please?

- I'll get the Pop-Tarts. - Okay.

Have Teresa help you with the toaster.

Dad!

You're going to be coming with me.

- Let's go. - No.

Out back. We got a car in the driveway.

- Dad. - Come on, Jimmy.

Let's go. Come on.

Go up to your room.

Wait up there, your mama's going to be here in a half-hour.

Go on, she'll take care of you.

You do that. You go upstairs and wait for Mommy, okay?

And I'll bring Daddy right back. I promise, okay? Let's go.

Mommy'll be back soon.

Daddy.

All right.

- Let's go. - I got to go.

Take us to Seventh and Greenland. And head east...

on Wilshire. It's going to be quicker. Stay down!

Put your arms behind your back!

- And then we are going to Central Station. - Another pickup?

No.

I'm going to make a withdrawal.

It's payday.

That's it.

Well, it's about time, Carmen.

Ben opened 7:00 sharp every day, for many years.

- Did you know that? - Yeah, she knows that.

And he was nailed for serious health code violations, wasn't he?

Just a few.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Excuse me.

Fuck!

What did you do now?

What do you mean? I just fucked up, that's what I did.

Hey, sweetie!

You don't have any of America's Best here.

But we have Hellmann's and Miracle Whip.

I can see that, but you don't have any America's Best.

$0.39.

In the local news, a man is dead after falling some 90 feet from an oil rig.

Here we go again.

About 3 miles south-west of Mountain View, around 7.:00 last night.

A worker on the rig fell off and landed on top of another worker.

The man who fell off at first was taken to the Carnegie Hospital...

Authorities say the 20-year-old man was from out ofstate.

They are not revealing his identity.

Judges today granted...

Mr. Parker, what are you doing here?

You like that?

Yeah, $5.99.

Well, I don't, I just...

Let me guess. It's too expensive for you?

Yeah, too expensive for you, too, isn't it?

Yeah, it's too expensive.

- Do you need some help with this guy? - No, he's just senile.

It's not fun getting old and ending up like that.

- Hey, girl. - Hi.

- Thank you for the coffee. - You're welcome.

All right, Mr. Parker. $1.25.

- No, $1.25. - Yeah, that's $1.25.

- You're right. - See, I wouldn't cheat you.

No, you wouldn't. See you tomorrow.

- What did you do to the phone? - Nothing.

Nothing at all. Sharon called me, that was it.

Don't touch my phone.

- What are you guys doing out here? - Repainting. What does it look like?

Didn't you get the notice?
