that happen?
Maybe because
you're the only guy around...
...who's got trouble
telling dark from light.
- Take care of yourself.
- Oh, yeah.
Don't spend it all in one place.
I won't even ask.
- I appreciate that.
- Here.
That's your bonus.
I'm investing in the company.
Can't do much detecting without a car.
Addy...
...thank you.
I'll see you.
It's all arranged.
You must not give it
to Pitt before I've gone.
Tomorrow night.
Ginny, baby.
If it's worth 25,000 to Primo Pitt, then
it's worth twice that much to Leon Coll.
- Dehl.
- Why not?
You know why not.
If you double-cross Pitt...
I got protection from Coll.
Now listen, when you finish here,
meet me back at my place, okay?
Dehl?
Please don't do this.
Come on, baby, stop worrying.
In 48 hours, you'll have
everything you ever wanted.
Hey, sugar, cheer up. There ain't
nothing left but the good times.
Hello?
- Mike?
- Hello, sweetness.
Guess what I'm doing.
From the sound, you're either
making gin or taking a bath.
Lying there all warm and soapy,
watching your pores open up.
I could help. Come right over
and get those hard to reach places.
Actually, I'm making a list for this party
I'm giving. Would you come?
Please? I need cheering up.
And I haven't smiled since last Tuesday.
Do you remember Tuesday?
- Was it raining?
- Yes, it was.
Maybe I'm confused.
Maybe you were...
Monday. Yeah, or Sunday. Yeah.
- Sunday was nice.
- You bitch, I was with you Sunday...
...and Monday and Tuesday
and Wednesday.
- Well, what happened to Thursday?
- Thursday I was in traction.
Do you want to be Friday?
Come to my party.
- I might be late.
- Oh, early is boring.
That's why I like you so much,
because you're always so late.
How about I come over and be late now?
I've too much to do.
Just come to my party.
Maybe.
Good night, luscious.
Okay, I'll come over and buff your body
and bring a nice glow to your cheeks.
I'll bring a nice foot to your ass.
- Who dialed the phone for you, Speer?
- I've been hearing that rumor again.
Once is a pain in the ass,
twice is a bore.
Once is all you get, pal.
I'm tired, Speer. Why don 't you save
the patter for the pulp reporters?
There's a good card at the arena tonight,
and I'm holding two tickets.
- You think I'd go to the fights with you?
- Who invited you?
- I'm calling you for Addy's number.
- Not a chance. I like the girl too much.
- See you around, shorty.
- Not if I see your mug first, flatfoot.
Go for the eye!
Thanks for the invite, lieutenant.
I like the fights.
No, honest, I really do.
I love watching two sweaty...
...sinewy, nearly-naked guys
bounce each other around.
Raises all my prurient interests.
Well, that's great.
You don't have to be so formal.
Why don't you call me "Speer"?
Come on. Go. Go.
Come on!
Way to go.
Five. Six. Seven. Eight. Nine.
Ten. You're out.
- A toast.
- A toast.
- Where you going?
- One more picture over here.
Better be good, sunshine.
Name's not "Sunshine,"
and it's 50,000 good.
Fifty thousand?
- I don't like clowns, sunshine.
- Told you, my name is not "Sunshine."
Spit it out or you're a memory.
How does "bookkeeper" strike you, huh?
- What about him?
- He sold you out.
- To who?
- Primo Pitt for 25 big ones.
What did he sell?
A cleaver big enough
to cut yours clean off.
Yeah.
Pitt got the stuff?
Not yet.
- But you'll get it back.
- Oh, yeah.
For 50,000. Half now, half on delivery.
Don't got that much on me.
Tell you what. The bookkeeper does.
On the river. Pier 14, Star of Bolivia.
Just have one of your mutts
drop it at my place.
- And the goods?
- Don't worry, you'll hear.
- Dehl. Dehl.
- Yeah?
Cross me and you're snail food.
This is crummy, Speer.
I better check this out.
It may be for his own good.
Look what the rat dragged in.
Sugar, it's all gonna be fine.
What kind
