Ice (2016–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - Run You Bastards Run - full transcript
subtitle by peritta
Previously, on Ice...
[Cam]: You killed Avi?
[Freddy]: He was coked
out of his head.
He was trying to sell me fake stones.
He pulled a gun on me.
[Isaac]:
You have to protect Freddy.
[Lady Rah]: We all know
that Avi was a piece of shit,
but that piece of shit
was my top earner,
my top stone-runner.
There's your brother, safe.
You want to keep him that way?
You do the fucking deal.
This makes us even.
Not quite.
[howling]
What the fuck is that sound?
Jake, what the fuck is that sound?
[snarling]
[Jake]: That entire thing
was a setup.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Jesus!
[Jake]: Your boy, Solomon,
He's a Fed.
Who the fuck are those guys?
If we would've bought those stones
like you instructed,
the Feds would be
at your doorstep right now.
[?]
? I'm talkin', he talks
I listen ?
? GPS on my position ?
? Just livin', just hanging out
with the opposition ?
? Can't take the heat
get the fuck out the kitchen ?
? Stupid y'all
think I'm just spittin' ?
? I belong in prison ?
? Crazy by my own admission
on a mission ?
? So grab a podium, audience ?
? Let me tell the public
that I'm self-destructive ?
? I ain't lookin' for no help
Fuck it ?
? Lookin' for a way to get high
I'm still alive ?
? Six million ways to die
Still a few more left to try ?
[?]
? Devil's got a hold
on me ?
? Devil's got a hold on me ?
[sirens wailing]
[Cam]: You know...
I love
this time of night in L.A.
Those seven or eight perfect
minutes of golden peacefulness.
You know me.
We didn't have that light
in London in the East End
when I was a kid growing up.
Back in the day,
I was a gangster peddling stones.
Then I went to New York,
and my life changed.
That's when I had the great fortune
to meet Isaac and his family.
He took me in and believed in me.
He showed me how to be a better man.
He taught me the business,
taught me the love of diamonds,
helped me realize
how beautiful they are...
[moaning, gasping]
Oh! Hold on a sec.
I'm going to have
a fucking heart attack.
I'm going to have a heart attack.
I'm too old for this shit.
Give me a second.
[Cam]: I even fell in love
with Isaac's beautiful sister, Sarah,
whom I was lucky enough to marry,
and I became
a part of this amazing family,
running this exceptional business,
a business that all started
because Isaac's parents
were able to escape from Hungary
during World War II
and save themselves from the Holocaust,
smuggling with them a rare diamond
that had been part of their family
for generations.
Using this diamond,
this Holocaust stone,
as collateral,
Isaac's parents were able
to build the foundation
of Green & Green.
[Ava]: Come on, Will.
You know I don't like being here
when your father's not home.
It feels like I'm trespassing.
Uh, no, you're not wearing those.
I'll lend you my Louboutins
for the night.
So what are you going to wear?
So nice.
[Ava]: I have other shoes.
[Cam]: I am humbled to be
standing before you all tonight
to honor this great man.
This year's humanitarian recipient
of the Pencils of Promise award...
it goes to my brother-in-law,
Isaac Green.
[applause]
Thank you, thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.
Mazel tov, you old fart.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Thank you very much.
I never got into this business
for the money,
or the glamour.
To me, it was always the way
I saw diamonds affect people.
A diamond draws you in
from the moment you see it.
It seduces you.
It becomes a part of you...
forever.
I am in the business
of building
people's self-esteem.
I love people.
I want them to feel good
about themselves.
[panting, moaning, groaning]
[cell phone vibrates]
[groans]
Oh, shit.
I've got to go.
I'm late for this event.
Oh, baby...
What?
I'm not good enough to go?
I'm not even sure I am.
I've never heard that story
about your grandmother.
I've told you that.
No.
So what happened to the stone?
Uh...
[Jake]: Well, that's where
the real story begins...
Pop, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Guys, previous engagement.
I couldn't... whoa.
Stand up.
You, young lady,
are setting the bar
awfully high this evening.
You look just beautiful.
Are those...
Louboutins? Really?
They're Mom's.
Well, I think
it's safe to say, after tonight,
they're all yours, right?
Never going to happen.
Hey!
You have a little lipstick
on your neck.
You should go wash it off.
Maybe some cologne.
Well, I'm going to hit the bar.
Willie G, uh, gin and tonic?
That's your drink, right?
With a twist.
Not funny.
Yes, hello, my dear.
How are you?
I'm good.
How are you?
I'm average.
Could I please have a, um, a Woodford?
Do you have a Woodford?
I do.
[Cam]: Freddy.
Hey! I'm going
to be over there.
How are ya?
You going to stay
a little bit longer this time?
Yeah, of course.
Yeah.
I'm just busting your balls,
hey, kid, you know.
I love having you around.
Oh... I feel like
you're overstating it, but...
No, no, I'm serious.
I like to see initiative...
at the very fucking least, growth.
What is this?
What's... oh.
What?
Don't tell me that's Chuy's
sister's lipstick on your neck.
You're going
to cause a fucking war here,
and we're already
up to our knees in one.
Now, your father wants you
to stick around.
He wants us all to stick around.
It's a pack mentality.
The longer you stay,
the safer he feels.
You going to stay?
Yeah, I'm not...
I'm not going anywhere.
Well, that's good, because...
you make him happy,
you're number one in my book,
so you going to stay?
Yeah, I can do that.
Good. Excellent.
You know, with family,
sometimes, all it takes is to turn up.
Pencils of Promise
believes that every child
should have access
to a quality education.
Since we began in 2008,

[applause]
Does everyone have
their checkbooks ready?
Opening bid starts at $50,000.
Do we have $50,000?
$50,000.
Do I have 55?
Thank you, sir.
55.
Do I have 60?
$60,000?
$60,000?
$60,000.
$60,000.
Thank you, madam.
$75,000.
This is a wonderful cause.
$80,000.
Do I have 85?
[Lady Rah]:
$200,000.
$200,000.
$200,000.
Would anyone like
to bid above $200,000?
$200,000.
Going once, going twice...
Sold!
[applause]
I always wanted to own a Green.
[audience chuckles]
[Emcee]: Thank you all
for your generosity.
Now, if you'd like to take a moment
to watch the good works
that Pencils of Promise
has done around the globe.
Good evening, Jacob, Cam.
Isaac, I must say,
you are looking
very debonair as always...
and Freddy.
Hello, I'm Ava.
I know.
And Willow, those shoes are fierce.
[Willow]:
Thank you.
Sorry to bother you all
on this beautiful evening.
I was wondering if I might
borrow Jacob for a moment?
Some last-minute business.
Excuse us.
Oh, my God...
Now is not the time for this shit, Rah.
I am just attending a benefit, Jacob,
just like you.
I get what you see in Ava.
She's breathtaking.
I made you whole by clocking the Feds.
We're square.
Yeah, see, you haven't
made me anything.
You sorting out the Feds,
you keeping them away from me,
that's merely squared Freddy
for taking Avi's life,
that's all.
And now that we've got past
the formalities,
let's talk about
the financial arrangement.
Avi is not worth more
than your freedom.
We're done..
Mm, mm...
after you finish working
off the 25 million
that Avi was worth.
Yes...
Yes, Jacob.
That's a real figure, isn't it?
That's what Avi was pulling in,
and that's what you're working towards.
Okay...
and then you're just going
to move the target, so...
As long as I don't move the target
squarely over there...
we don't have a problem, do we?
Clock's ticking, Jacob.
25 million.
Then we can go our separate ways.
[elevator dings]
You want to talk about the Braden?
No.
I got ears everywhere, Jake.
The Feds, they flag you in the room?
No, we backed off.
Left empty-handed.
Well, that's one good thing.
Listen to me, kid.
She don't play the favor game.
I know that.
Then why was you fucking
talking to her last night?
We're in the hole for $25 million.
What are you talking about?
She circled back.
That's the number she gave us
for Avi's worth.
So...
even if we wanted
to liquidate Green & Green,
we'd still be short 25 mil.
We're not burning the shop for her.
Jake...
I need one day.
Listen...
- One day.
- Listen to me!
This is not the kind of scenario
that has
all different kinds of outcomes.
Now, if you've got a different way
you want to go about things,
then we need to talk about...
- I know...
- Let me fucking finish!
Let me finish.
Now, if you can't deliver,
and you don't want my help,
then she'll blow this house to shit
and everyone you care about with it.
Let me tell you something,
from a guy who's been down
this fucking road.
The worst thing
is to see a carcass of someone you love
lying there on the ground.
One goddamned day.
One day.
[car engine starts]
[dance music throbbing]
[patrons chatter]
Look who came for the buffet!
We gotta talk.
You see anything you need?
I'm good.
If you're not here
for the women or the menu,
I know that hole
must be getting deeper.
It is.
Na zdorovie!
At the docks...
you brought up C-117.
Yeah...
and you didn't want to fuck with it.
Big number sitting out there...
if it's there at all.
Oh, it's there...
Yeah?
And I'm going to make a run at it.
[Jake]: Hey.
[Ava]: Hi. What are you doing?
Well, I was going to do lunch,
but not really feeling the buffet.
Buffet?
Where are you?
Near the loft. You?
Just running some errands.
You want to have lunch with me?
Okay.
Yeah.
[panting, gasping]
Ah!
[groans deeply]
Oh, my God...
I think getting divorced
was the best thing for our sex life.
[laughs]
That's fucked-up.
Why?
It's true.
Liquid lunch?
Mm, sounds good.
[slides bottle over]
Cheers.
You think
this is the best version of us?
Who was the woman at the gala?
Business associate.
Hmm...
never seen her at Green & Green.
She's a private client only.
She's really beautiful.
She's a lot of things.
Beautiful? Nah.
[Freddy]: You know what?
I agree...
and we are down to two.
Look at those beauties.
Beautiful.
Beautiful!
Now, you already know
which diamond is supposed
to belong to you, don't you?
I do.
So I want to do a little
exercise with you.
This only works with our signature cut.
I want you to close your eyes
and I want you to think about
the most peaceful time in your life...
Hey, Pop.
What's he doing on the floor?
Oh, he's helping
that couple from Van Nuys.
About to sell them a nice stone, too.
All right.
Can you close them?
I need him in the back.
[Freddy]: It's always the woman
who chooses the man, right?
Sometimes, they let us
think we choose...
I am so sorry to interrupt.
Jake needs some help
in the back, Freddy.
Oh, okay.
Can it wait a minute?
I think we're about to wrap this up.
Please, just head to the back.
I'll finish up.
I imagine you will.
I love...
This is the man right here, okay?
I'm leaving you...
you're in the best hands
in this city, at least,
maybe in the world, too.
Enjoy, guys.
Thank you.
[Isaac]: So, um...
where were we?
He was showing you some stones?
Hey. Dude.
Look, I don't fit the company mold.
You don't want me on the floor,
I won't be on the floor,
but don't go through Pop.
You know, come tag me
out yourself, Jesus.
You know, I'm dealing
with a shitstorm right now
because of you,
so please...
back off.
We're still not clear?
Fuck.
We fucking saved her.
What does she want?
She wants $25 million.
For... for Avi?
- For Avi.
- Are you...
That punk was not bringing in
that much paper.
Are you kidding me?
Apparently, he was.
Well, fuck that, man.
Look, she's going to keep
switching the game on us...
Freddy, shut the fuck up.
Shut the fuck up.
I already have a solution to this,
but if I bring you in,
I have to know that you can handle it.
Like, I have to fucking know.
Can you fucking handle it?
Yeah, of course.
Look, man, I'm fully aware
that I'm the asshole
that saddled up the horses
that rode us into this shitstorm,
so, yeah,
I'm your goddamned Huckleberry, Jake.
What's going on?
What are we doing?
We're going
to make a run at C-117.
[laughs]
Yeah.
[laughing]
Jesus fucking Christ!
Calm down.
It's a car.
Is it,
or is it a car with...
allegedly with a shitload
of illegal stones
that's stuck in fucking Customs.
Someone's going to get it out,
and it may as well be us.
[laughs]
I like the confidence,
but how are you going to get in?
I already spoke to Alexi.
He has access.
Really?
Yes, really.
Look, if it...
okay.
If this is really the play,
then let me and Alexi do it, man.
I mean, you got a family.
You got a fucking...
you got a life.
You've got a wonderful loft,
and great clothes,
and beautiful facial features.
Don't risk everything for this.
It might not even exist, man.
We don't know.
Somebody could have already...
already fucking stolen it,
or it could have been
an urban legend to begin with.
It's there.
It's been confirmed.
It's there.
That's a huge play.
There's a lot of moving pieces.
Please, Freddy,
don't make me regret
bringing you in on this.
Okay?
Just stay in your lane.
Don't deviate from my plan,
and everything will be fine...
but you cannot tell Pop,
and you sure as hell can't tell Cam.
Yeah, that's fine.
Promise me.
Yeah, I promise.
Of course.
Jesus Christ!
You can go.
I'll close up.
All right.
- Freddy!
- Jesus Christ!
Fuck me.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You're jumping around
like you've got
a red-hot poker
shoved up your ass.
Oh, my God, whoo!
Here.
How the fuck did you...
Oh, my God, my heart!
My heart is about to explode..
Oh, my God.
Well, maybe next time,
I'll make a fucking appointment.
[laughs]
No, no, I'm happy to see you.
It's just...
it's not a great combination, you know.
It's, uh... a good scare,
and a lot of cocaine.
You still using?
No, I'm not currently on cocaine,
but I think it's...
it's safe to say
there's some residual stuff
working its way through my arteries.
What are you doing in Eagle Rock?
What am I doing in Eagle Rock?
What the fuck are you doing here
with all these schmucks?
What do you mean?
These are my peeps.
You don't like Eagle Rock?
Why don't you go and
stay with your Pop, huh?
I don't want, uh, you know...
I don't want to put Pop in any danger.
Come stay with us.
I mean, I ain't got
a fucking maid service, but...
I'll take care of you.
Yeah, stay with you and Aunt Sarah.
That'd be fun...
but no, I'm good here, man.
I'm good here.
I know the area.
I'm kind of attached
to the wallpaper...
but thank you.
I'm good.
Hey, you want to sit down?
I got some vodka...
No, no, no.
Just got some powdered...
a little powdered donuts.
You know?
You stay away from that shit.
Yeah, I told you.
I'm not doing it.
Don't worry about me.
I'm good, all right?
Come here.
Come on.
Come here.
I love you.
Aw, I love you, too, Uncle Cam.
You have a...
You have a great night.
Okay.
Just one more thing.
Do you want to talk to me
about why your fucking brother
dropped in on Alexi?
Uh...
Sadly, I don't have any fucking idea
what you're talking about.
Do not...
let me fucking ask you again.
Fuck, that was effective.
[buzzer rings]
[Woman]: Royal East Bank.
May I help you?
Yeah, it's, uh, Isaac Green,
for Mr. Ling, please.
[door buzzes]
[unlocks]
Please...
and how can I be of service
to you, Mr. Green?
Well, um...
Mr. Ling,
I want to look inside
my safety deposit box.
There a problem?
Mr. Green, you closed
that box in 2012.
What?
We were sad to lose
the monthly fee on your box,
Mr. Green.
Do you remember that?
Papa, do you remember closing the box?
Uh...
I'm...
Of course I remember.
Well, just give me
the record of the contents.
[whispering]
Mr. Green,
the reason you bank here
is because we keep no records.
Papa, are you okay?
Maybe we should just go home.
It's okay, kiddo.
We still haven't gotten
our lychee ice cream.
Right.
[camera shutter clicks]
You know what?
I am a little tired.
Yeah, let's get you home.
I can come stay with you.
It's okay, doll.
You get back to your mom's
once I'm home.
Do that for me?
Yeah. Of course.
Love you, babe.
Love you, too.
[techno music]
[Freddy chuckles]
Best meeting spot ever.
[crunches]
Tits and wings?
Two of my favorite things, for sure.
You done?
All right.
Let's continue.
So, the slip is here, 117.
So the dock's equipped
with Pelco Spectra cameras,
so that's going to mean
that we're going to have to meet up
a mile and half
past the exit point, okay?
Delete your...
Oh, right.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Hey, you know he's very intimidating.
You're not talking me out of this.
Oh, no.
No problem.
The fact of the matter is,
you ain't fucking doing it without me.
[Jake]:
Cam...
No negotiation.
[Alexi]: Hey,
sweet spot, huh?
How 'bout this spot, right?
I've seen boobies before.
Hey, you want to run the play?
Aw, shit.
All right.
[Jake]:
Okay, so here's the plan.
We'll come in with the van
when one shift ends,
so when we roll out with the car,
a new guard is on,
and we don't get flagged.
Now, C-117 is at
the farthest east point.
The ride out there
is going to have to be specific.
Point A to point B,
no bullshit, all right?
[Cam]: Time, end to end?
[Jake]: 90 seconds, tops.
From the shack to the slip, 90 seconds.
[Cam]: Seems you've covered
all the bases.
What's the back-end deal
you negotiated with my nephew?
50-50.
50-50...
Well...
I'm having a bad day.
You think I'm a stupid fucking Jew?
I never disrespected you, Cameron.
70-30, our way.
Ffff... you're kidding me.
Not even a little.
Now, I've got to walk
my fucking family in there.
We take the risks.
We get more.
Come on...
shit or get off the pot.
To family.
[Cam]: To family.
Na zdorovie!
All you had was leftover Pad Thai.
Not really hungry.
I want you to tell me
about the woman from the benefit, Jake.
I've known you for 16 years.
There's some things about my business
that...
you just don't want to know about.
When we were married, maybe,
but I am making a choice
to be here now.
Is she the reason for the bag of cash?
Yes.
Are Willow and I in danger?
No.
Are you?
Not at the moment.
But it's coming.
Isn't it?
Not if I can help it.
Well...
you'd better help it, quickly...
because we have a lot more to lose
than our marriage this time.
Pop and Uncle Kermit,
they knew how to do it
at Green Brothers.
Well...
Kept the train on the rails.
Never got caught up
in the bullshit like us.
Isaac!
They were 300 deep,
Spagoletti and his men,
when we took over, huh?
Four years to turn a profit.
You remember that?
[chuckles]
Isaac, um...
we've, uh...
we've had a few bumps
over the years, you know,
but we've always come back.
This is a huge one.
Well, no more than Algiers.
I told you.
I don't ever want to talk about that.
Why not?
I mean, it's what made us who we are,
why we're here, you know,
what we mean to each other.
I'm not ashamed of that...
[loud bang]
Damn it!
Please, Cam!
Please...
Okay. Okay.
Okay.
Calm down.
Her hooks are getting deeper.
I can feel it.
Our legacy is going to die with her.
Our legacy is what we make it.
You know?
She ain't finished us yet,
not by a long shot, huh?
Calm down.
Hey, kid!
You want some food?
I'm good.
[Isaac]: Too much coffee.
I've got to hit the head.
Finish my salad, Jake.
You okay?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah?
Is he all right?
Yeah, he's fine.
We're just chewing over,
you know, the old days, and...
All good?
We're going to call it off.
What?
It's too risky.
What do you mean, too risky?
It's too risky.
I got a wife, a kid...
Yeah, that's what it's about.
Family.
Now, Lady Rah, she wants something.
I know. I know...
but not this.
She ain't fucking rational.
Now, I'm at a loss here,
how I cover 25 fucking mil.
Then let me fucking handle it.
You want to handle it?
Yeah.
I'm going to take my Pop home.
Yeah.
See you.
Yeah.
Are we clear?
Very.
Good.
Very.
Hey!
What?
What's going on?
Your brother, he wants to pull out.
No, no... what? Why?
He says it's too fucking risky.
It's too risky?
Well, make...
I'm the one with my head on the block!
Yeah, I know that,
and I promise you,
I won't let that happen.
Well, I appreciate the sentiment, man,
but do we have a Plan B?
A Plan B?
Yeah, we have a Plan B.
This fucking place.
This.
Hey! That's not happening.
You know that's...
what are you talking about?
That cannot happen!
Well, you got another option.
You can always go underground.
It'll break your Pop's heart
just the same.
[chuckles]
Yeah, what's that look like?
I take off?
I just keep running?
Freddy...
if you do that,
you could never come back.
Never.
Look at me.
I need you here, kid.
Huh?
It's all set up.
Shit's about to go down, I mean...
this would get us out from under her.
I know.
You think it's too risky?
Everything's risky.
[knocking]
Yo!
[buzzes him in]
Simone just hit me.
Johnny Balrusa
is moving on C-117.
If we want to do this, we'll move now.
- Well?
- Okay.
Let's go.
[Alexi]:
Where's Jake?
He'll meet us there.
After you.
[Isaac snores]
[phone ringing]
[phone ringing]
Pick up the fucking phone, Freddy.
What are you stopping here for?
This isn't the play.
We've got to move.
We are making the move.
What do you mean,
we're making the move?
[speaks Russian]
Hey, could you speak
in English, please,
so we all know what's going on?
[speaks Russian]
We don't have time
to get on the grounds.
His men are there now.
We've got to wait
for Balrusa to roll out.
[Freddy]:
So what are we going to do then?
We're going to politely ask him
to pull over and give us
the car he just stole?
That's one theory.
- We said no goddamn guns!
- We said no guns.
Yeah, well, we also said
Jake would be a part of it,
didn't we?
Seems like all kinds
of shit is changing.
Wait, you just have masks, too,
just laying around?
Jesus Christ.
[Cam]: No, no, no, no.
This is better.
This is good.
You know, we let him come to us.
It's better.
All right.
Where the fuck are you, Freddy?
Hmm? Call me back.
[text chimes]
I fucking warned you.
Here we go.
Okay, here we go.
[Cam]: This is the guy.
This is him.
That's the one, that's the one.
[Cam]: Don't get too close.
[phone chimes]
[whispering]
Motherfucker!
Goddamnit!
[engine accelerating]
[tires squealing]
Stay in the van.
We'll take the car.
Get out of the car, now!
Go, go, go, go!
Really?
The fuck is going on?
Get the fuck in front of the car!
Who the fuck are you?
Move, motherfucker! Move!
[Woman]:
Go, go, go, go!
Get down! Get down!
[yelling]
You're fucking with the wrong people.
Get down!
Down on the ground.
[woman]: Face down
on the ground!
Go? Okay.
[Alexi]:
Down, motherfucker!
Face down! Face down!
- You're all dead.
- Keep 'em down.
[Freddy]: Put your head
on the ground. Down.
I'm taking the car.
You think I'm just going
to leave it up to you
and take my fucking chances, yeah?
Well, it's the best chance you got.
Now, you're a clever kid,
and you should know better
than to think I'd go to war with you,
but make no mistake,
if you do not lower that gun,
I will paint the streets
with the inside of your fucking skull.
[Woman]: We've got to move!
Just go with them!
[Cam]: Kid!
Get in the car.
Yeah, all right.
[Cam]:
Start the fucking panels.
[Alexi]: Back is empty.
[Cam]:
It's not fucking here!
It's not here.
[Freddy]:
Are you fucking kidding me?
Oh, goddammit!
Fuck!
[Alexi]:
Looks pretty empty here.
[Cam]: It's not here.
It's not fucking here.
[knocking, tapping on car]
[Cam]: Where the fuck is it?
Where are you?
Fuck.
[Freddy]: Hold up a sec!
What? Whaddya got?
[Alexi]: There's nothing
around the engine.
Ah! Hey! Hey!
I got it!
[Cam]: Whatcha got?
Show me! Show me! Show me!
Hell yeah.
I got a fucking stiffy on here.
Is that the real thing!
[Freddy]: Yeah!
You sniff quality, kid!
[laughs]
Holy shit...
[Freddy]:
That's $20 million right there.
[Cam]:
You got a great eye, kid!
You got a fucking great nose.
You can sniff out fucking quality.
Let's take a look at these bitches.
Let's see these.
Oh, baby, look at those.
Look at those.
Look at those beauties.
That never gets old, eh?
Let's get the fuck out of here.
[Freddy]: Oh, man...
Okay, done?
You done?
Don't you lose them, Freddy.
[laughing]
[loud crash]
Get out of the car!

Previously, on Ice...
[Cam]: You killed Avi?
[Freddy]: He was coked
out of his head.
He was trying to sell me fake stones.
He pulled a gun on me.
[Isaac]:
You have to protect Freddy.
[Lady Rah]: We all know
that Avi was a piece of shit,
but that piece of shit
was my top earner,
my top stone-runner.
There's your brother, safe.
You want to keep him that way?
You do the fucking deal.
This makes us even.
Not quite.
[howling]
What the fuck is that sound?
Jake, what the fuck is that sound?
[snarling]
[Jake]: That entire thing
was a setup.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
Jesus!
[Jake]: Your boy, Solomon,
He's a Fed.
Who the fuck are those guys?
If we would've bought those stones
like you instructed,
the Feds would be
at your doorstep right now.

? I'm talkin', he talks
I listen ?

[sirens wailing]
[Cam]: You know...
I love
this time of night in L.A.
Those seven or eight perfect
minutes of golden peacefulness.
You know me.
We didn't have that light
in London in the East End
when I was a kid growing up.
Back in the day,
I was a gangster peddling stones.
Then I went to New York,
and my life changed.
That's when I had the great fortune
to meet Isaac and his family.
He took me in and believed in me.
He showed me how to be a better man.
He taught me the business,
taught me the love of diamonds,
helped me realize
how beautiful they are...
[moaning, gasping]
Oh! Hold on a sec.
I'm going to have
a fucking heart attack.
I'm going to have a heart attack.
I'm too old for this shit.
Give me a second.
[Cam]: I even fell in love
with Isaac's beautiful sister, Sarah,
whom I was lucky enough to marry,
and I became
a part of this amazing family,
running this exceptional business,
a business that all started
because Isaac's parents
were able to escape from Hungary
during World War II
and save themselves from the Holocaust,
smuggling with them a rare diamond
that had been part of their family
for generations.
Using this diamond,
this Holocaust stone,
as collateral,
Isaac's parents were able
to build the foundation
of Green & Green.
[Ava]: Come on, Will.
You know I don't like being here
when your father's not home.
It feels like I'm trespassing.
Uh, no, you're not wearing those.
I'll lend you my Louboutins
for the night.
So what are you going to wear?
So nice.
[Ava]: I have other shoes.
[Cam]: I am humbled to be
standing before you all tonight
to honor this great man.
This year's humanitarian recipient
of the Pencils of Promise award...
it goes to my brother-in-law,
Isaac Green.
[applause]
Thank you, thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.
Mazel tov, you old fart.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Thank you very much.
I never got into this business
for the money,
or the glamour.
To me, it was always the way
I saw diamonds affect people.
A diamond draws you in
from the moment you see it.
It seduces you.
It becomes a part of you...
forever.
I am in the business
of building
people's self-esteem.
I love people.
I want them to feel good
about themselves.
[panting, moaning, groaning]
[cell phone vibrates]
[groans]
Oh, shit.
I've got to go.
I'm late for this event.
Oh, baby...
What?
I'm not good enough to go?
I'm not even sure I am.
I've never heard that story
about your grandmother.
I've told you that.
No.
So what happened to the stone?
Uh...
[Jake]: Well, that's where
the real story begins...
Pop, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Guys, previous engagement.
I couldn't... whoa.
Stand up.
You, young lady,
are setting the bar
awfully high this evening.
You look just beautiful.
Are those...
Louboutins? Really?
They're Mom's.
Well, I think
it's safe to say, after tonight,
they're all yours, right?
Never going to happen.
Hey!
You have a little lipstick
on your neck.
You should go wash it off.
Maybe some cologne.
Well, I'm going to hit the bar.
Willie G, uh, gin and tonic?
That's your drink, right?
With a twist.
Not funny.
Yes, hello, my dear.
How are you?
I'm good.
How are you?
I'm average.
Could I please have a, um, a Woodford?
Do you have a Woodford?
I do.
[Cam]: Freddy.
Hey! I'm going
to be over there.
How are ya?
You going to stay
a little bit longer this time?
Yeah, of course.
Yeah.
I'm just busting your balls,
hey, kid, you know.
I love having you around.
Oh... I feel like
you're overstating it, but...
No, no, I'm serious.
I like to see initiative...
at the very fucking least, growth.
What is this?
What's... oh.
What?
Don't tell me that's Chuy's
sister's lipstick on your neck.
You're going
to cause a fucking war here,
and we're already
up to our knees in one.
Now, your father wants you
to stick around.
He wants us all to stick around.
It's a pack mentality.
The longer you stay,
the safer he feels.
You going to stay?
Yeah, I'm not...
I'm not going anywhere.
Well, that's good, because...
you make him happy,
you're number one in my book,
so you going to stay?
Yeah, I can do that.
Good. Excellent.
You know, with family,
sometimes, all it takes is to turn up.

[audience chuckles]
[Emcee]: Thank you all
for your generosity.
Now, if you'd like to take a moment
to watch the good works
that Pencils of Promise
has done around the globe.
Good evening, Jacob, Cam.
Isaac, I must say,
you are looking
very debonair as always...
and Freddy.
Hello, I'm Ava.
I know.
And Willow, those shoes are fierce.
[Willow]:
Thank you.
Sorry to bother you all
on this beautiful evening.
I was wondering if I might
borrow Jacob for a moment?
Some last-minute business.
Excuse us.
Oh, my God...
Now is not the time for this shit, Rah.
I am just attending a benefit, Jacob,
just like you.
I get what you see in Ava.
She's breathtaking.
I made you whole by clocking the Feds.
We're square.
Yeah, see, you haven't
made me anything.
You sorting out the Feds,
you keeping them away from me,
that's merely squared Freddy
for taking Avi's life,
that's all.
And now that we've got past
the formalities,
let's talk about
the financial arrangement.
Avi is not worth more
than your freedom.
We're done..
Mm, mm...
after you finish working
off the 25 million
that Avi was worth.
Yes...
Yes, Jacob.
That's a real figure, isn't it?
That's what Avi was pulling in,
and that's what you're working towards.
Okay...
and then you're just going
to move the target, so...
As long as I don't move the target
squarely over there...
we don't have a problem, do we?
Clock's ticking, Jacob.
25 million.
Then we can go our separate ways.
[elevator dings]
You want to talk about the Braden?
No.
I got ears everywhere, Jake.
The Feds, they flag you in the room?
No, we backed off.
Left empty-handed.
Well, that's one good thing.
Listen to me, kid.
She don't play the favor game.
I know that.
Then why was you fucking
talking to her last night?
We're in the hole for $25 million.
What are you talking about?
She circled back.
That's the number she gave us
for Avi's worth.
So...
even if we wanted
to liquidate Green & Green,
we'd still be short 25 mil.
We're not burning the shop for her.
Jake...
I need one day.
Listen...
- One day.
- Listen to me!
This is not the kind of scenario
that has
all different kinds of outcomes.
Now, if you've got a different way
you want to go about things,
then we need to talk about...
- I know...
- Let me fucking finish!
Let me finish.
Now, if you can't deliver,
and you don't want my help,
then she'll blow this house to shit
and everyone you care about with it.
Let me tell you something,
from a guy who's been down
this fucking road.
The worst thing
is to see a carcass of someone you love
lying there on the ground.
One goddamned day.
One day.
[car engine starts]
[dance music throbbing]
[patrons chatter]
Look who came for the buffet!
We gotta talk.
You see anything you need?
I'm good.
If you're not here
for the women or the menu,
I know that hole
must be getting deeper.
It is.
Na zdorovie!
At the docks...
you brought up C-117.
Yeah...
and you didn't want to fuck with it.
Big number sitting out there...
if it's there at all.
Oh, it's there...
Yeah?
And I'm going to make a run at it.
[Jake]: Hey.
[Ava]: Hi. What are you doing?
Well, I was going to do lunch,
but not really feeling the buffet.
Buffet?
Where are you?
Near the loft. You?
Just running some errands.
You want to have lunch with me?
Okay.
Yeah.
[panting, gasping]
Ah!
[groans deeply]
Oh, my God...
I think getting divorced
was the best thing for our sex life.
[laughs]
That's fucked-up.
Why?
It's true.
Liquid lunch?
Mm, sounds good.
[slides bottle over]
Cheers.
You think
this is the best version of us?
Who was the woman at the gala?
Business associate.
Hmm...
never seen her at Green & Green.
She's a private client only.
She's really beautiful.
She's a lot of things.
Beautiful? Nah.
[Freddy]: You know what?
I agree...
and we are down to two.
Look at those beauties.
Beautiful.
Beautiful!
Now, you already know
which diamond is supposed
to belong to you, don't you?
I do.
So I want to do a little
exercise with you.
This only works with our signature cut.
I want you to close your eyes
and I want you to think about
the most peaceful time in your life...
Hey, Pop.
What's he doing on the floor?
Oh, he's helping
that couple from Van Nuys.
About to sell them a nice stone, too.
All right.
Can you close them?
I need him in the back.
[Freddy]: It's always the woman
who chooses the man, right?
Sometimes, they let us
think we choose...
I am so sorry to interrupt.
Jake needs some help
in the back, Freddy.
Oh, okay.
Can it wait a minute?
I think we're about to wrap this up.
Please, just head to the back.
I'll finish up.
I imagine you will.
I love...
This is the man right here, okay?
I'm leaving you...
you're in the best hands
in this city, at least,
maybe in the world, too.
Enjoy, guys.
Thank you.
[Isaac]: So, um...
where were we?
He was showing you some stones?
Hey. Dude.
Look, I don't fit the company mold.
You don't want me on the floor,
I won't be on the floor,
but don't go through Pop.
You know, come tag me
out yourself, Jesus.
You know, I'm dealing
with a shitstorm right now
because of you,
so please...
back off.
We're still not clear?
Fuck.
We fucking saved her.
What does she want?
She wants $25 million.
For... for Avi?
- For Avi.
- Are you...
That punk was not bringing in
that much paper.
Are you kidding me?
Apparently, he was.
Well, fuck that, man.
Look, she's going to keep
switching the game on us...
Freddy, shut the fuck up.
Shut the fuck up.
I already have a solution to this,
but if I bring you in,
I have to know that you can handle it.
Like, I have to fucking know.
Can you fucking handle it?
Yeah, of course.
Look, man, I'm fully aware
that I'm the asshole
that saddled up the horses
that rode us into this shitstorm,
so, yeah,
I'm your goddamned Huckleberry, Jake.
What's going on?
What are we doing?
We're going
to make a run at C-117.
[laughs]
Yeah.
[laughing]
Jesus fucking Christ!
Calm down.
It's a car.
Is it,
or is it a car with...
allegedly with a shitload
of illegal stones
that's stuck in fucking Customs.
Someone's going to get it out,
and it may as well be us.
[laughs]
I like the confidence,
but how are you going to get in?
I already spoke to Alexi.
He has access.
Really?
Yes, really.
Look, if it...
okay.
If this is really the play,
then let me and Alexi do it, man.
I mean, you got a family.
You got a fucking...
you got a life.
You've got a wonderful loft,
and great clothes,
and beautiful facial features.
Don't risk everything for this.
It might not even exist, man.
We don't know.
Somebody could have already...
already fucking stolen it,
or it could have been
an urban legend to begin with.
It's there.
It's been confirmed.
It's there.
That's a huge play.
There's a lot of moving pieces.
Please, Freddy,
don't make me regret
bringing you in on this.
Okay?
Just stay in your lane.
Don't deviate from my plan,
and everything will be fine...
but you cannot tell Pop,
and you sure as hell can't tell Cam.
Yeah, that's fine.
Promise me.
Yeah, I promise.
Of course.
Jesus Christ!
You can go.
I'll close up.
All right.
- Freddy!
- Jesus Christ!
Fuck me.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You're jumping around
like you've got
a red-hot poker
shoved up your ass.
Oh, my God, whoo!
Here.
How the fuck did you...
Oh, my God, my heart!
My heart is about to explode..
Oh, my God.
Well, maybe next time,
I'll make a fucking appointment.
[laughs]
No, no, I'm happy to see you.
It's just...
it's not a great combination, you know.
It's, uh... a good scare,
and a lot of cocaine.
You still using?
No, I'm not currently on cocaine,
but I think it's...
it's safe to say
there's some residual stuff
working its way through my arteries.
What are you doing in Eagle Rock?
What am I doing in Eagle Rock?
What the fuck are you doing here
with all these schmucks?
What do you mean?
These are my peeps.
You don't like Eagle Rock?
Why don't you go and
stay with your Pop, huh?
I don't want, uh, you know...
I don't want to put Pop in any danger.
Come stay with us.
I mean, I ain't got
a fucking maid service, but...
I'll take care of you.
Yeah, stay with you and Aunt Sarah.
That'd be fun...
but no, I'm good here, man.
I'm good here.
I know the area.
I'm kind of attached
to the wallpaper...
but thank you.
I'm good.
Hey, you want to sit down?
I got some vodka...
No, no, no.
Just got some powdered...
a little powdered donuts.
You know?
You stay away from that shit.
Yeah, I told you.
I'm not doing it.
Don't worry about me.
I'm good, all right?
Come here.
Come on.
Come here.
I love you.
Aw, I love you, too, Uncle Cam.
You have a...
You have a great night.
Okay.
Just one more thing.
Do you want to talk to me
about why your fucking brother
dropped in on Alexi?
Uh...
Sadly, I don't have any fucking idea
what you're talking about.
Do not...
let me fucking ask you again.
Fuck, that was effective.
[buzzer rings]
[Woman]: Royal East Bank.
May I help you?
Yeah, it's, uh, Isaac Green,
for Mr. Ling, please.
[door buzzes]
[unlocks]
Please...
and how can I be of service
to you, Mr. Green?
Well, um...
Mr. Ling,
I want to look inside
my safety deposit box.
There a problem?
Mr. Green, you closed
that box in 2012.
What?
We were sad to lose
the monthly fee on your box,
Mr. Green.
Do you remember that?
Papa, do you remember closing the box?
Uh...
I'm...
Of course I remember.
Well, just give me
the record of the contents.
[whispering]
Mr. Green,
the reason you bank here
is because we keep no records.
Papa, are you okay?
Maybe we should just go home.
It's okay, kiddo.
We still haven't gotten
our lychee ice cream.
Right.
[camera shutter clicks]
You know what?
I am a little tired.
Yeah, let's get you home.
I can come stay with you.
It's okay, doll.
You get back to your mom's
once I'm home.
Do that for me?
Yeah. Of course.
Love you, babe.
Love you, too.
[techno music]
[Freddy chuckles]
Best meeting spot ever.
[crunches]
Tits and wings?
Two of my favorite things, for sure.
You done?
All right.
Let's continue.
So, the slip is here, 117.
So the dock's equipped
with Pelco Spectra cameras,
so that's going to mean
that we're going to have to meet up
a mile and half
past the exit point, okay?
Delete your...
Oh, right.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Hey, you know he's very intimidating.
You're not talking me out of this.
Oh, no.
No problem.
The fact of the matter is,
you ain't fucking doing it without me.
[Jake]:
Cam...
No negotiation.
[Alexi]: Hey,
sweet spot, huh?
How 'bout this spot, right?
I've seen boobies before.
Hey, you want to run the play?
Aw, shit.
All right.
[Jake]:
Okay, so here's the plan.
We'll come in with the van
when one shift ends,
so when we roll out with the car,
a new guard is on,
and we don't get flagged.
Now, C-117 is at
the farthest east point.
The ride out there
is going to have to be specific.
Point A to point B,
no bullshit, all right?
[Cam]: Time, end to end?
[Jake]: 90 seconds, tops.
From the shack to the slip, 90 seconds.
[Cam]: Seems you've covered
all the bases.
What's the back-end deal
you negotiated with my nephew?
50-50.
50-50...
Well...
I'm having a bad day.
You think I'm a stupid fucking Jew?
I never disrespected you, Cameron.
70-30, our way.
Ffff... you're kidding me.
Not even a little.
Now, I've got to walk
my fucking family in there.
We take the risks.
We get more.
Come on...
shit or get off the pot.
To family.
[Cam]: To family.
Na zdorovie!
All you had was leftover Pad Thai.
Not really hungry.
I want you to tell me
about the woman from the benefit, Jake.
I've known you for 16 years.
There's some things about my business
that...
you just don't want to know about.
When we were married, maybe,
but I am making a choice
to be here now.
Is she the reason for the bag of cash?
Yes.
Are Willow and I in danger?
No.
Are you?
Not at the moment.
But it's coming.
Isn't it?
Not if I can help it.
Well...
you'd better help it, quickly...
because we have a lot more to lose
than our marriage this time.
Pop and Uncle Kermit,
they knew how to do it
at Green Brothers.
Well...
Kept the train on the rails.
Never got caught up
in the bullshit like us.
Isaac!
They were 300 deep,
Spagoletti and his men,
when we took over, huh?
Four years to turn a profit.
You remember that?
[chuckles]
Isaac, um...
we've, uh...
we've had a few bumps
over the years, you know,
but we've always come back.
This is a huge one.
Well, no more than Algiers.
I told you.
I don't ever want to talk about that.
Why not?
I mean, it's what made us who we are,
why we're here, you know,
what we mean to each other.
I'm not ashamed of that...
[loud bang]
Damn it!
Please, Cam!
Please...
Okay. Okay.
Okay.
Calm down.
Her hooks are getting deeper.
I can feel it.
Our legacy is going to die with her.
Our legacy is what we make it.
You know?
She ain't finished us yet,
not by a long shot, huh?
Calm down.
Hey, kid!
You want some food?
I'm good.
[Isaac]: Too much coffee.
I've got to hit the head.
Finish my salad, Jake.
You okay?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah?
Is he all right?
Yeah, he's fine.
We're just chewing over,
you know, the old days, and...
All good?
We're going to call it off.
What?
It's too risky.
What do you mean, too risky?
It's too risky.
I got a wife, a kid...
Yeah, that's what it's about.
Family.
Now, Lady Rah, she wants something.
I know. I know...
but not this.
She ain't fucking rational.
Now, I'm at a loss here,
how I cover 25 fucking mil.
Then let me fucking handle it.
You want to handle it?
Yeah.
I'm going to take my Pop home.
Yeah.
See you.
Yeah.
Are we clear?
Very.
Good.
Very.
Hey!
What?
What's going on?
Your brother, he wants to pull out.
No, no... what? Why?
He says it's too fucking risky.
It's too risky?
Well, make...
I'm the one with my head on the block!
Yeah, I know that,
and I promise you,
I won't let that happen.
Well, I appreciate the sentiment, man,
but do we have a Plan B?
A Plan B?
Yeah, we have a Plan B.
This fucking place.
This.
Hey! That's not happening.
You know that's...
what are you talking about?
That cannot happen!
Well, you got another option.
You can always go underground.
It'll break your Pop's heart
just the same.
[chuckles]
Yeah, what's that look like?
I take off?
I just keep running?
Freddy...
if you do that,
you could never come back.
Never.
Look at me.
I need you here, kid.
Huh?
It's all set up.
Shit's about to go down, I mean...
this would get us out from under her.
I know.
You think it's too risky?
Everything's risky.
[knocking]
Yo!
[buzzes him in]
Simone just hit me.
Johnny Balrusa
is moving on C-117.
If we want to do this, we'll move now.
- Well?
- Okay.
Let's go.
[Alexi]:
Where's Jake?
He'll meet us there.
After you.
[Isaac snores]
[phone ringing]
[phone ringing]
Pick up the fucking phone, Freddy.
What are you stopping here for?
This isn't the play.
We've got to move.
We are making the move.
What do you mean,
we're making the move?
[speaks Russian]
Hey, could you speak
in English, please,
so we all know what's going on?
[speaks Russian]
We don't have time
to get on the grounds.
His men are there now.
We've got to wait
for Balrusa to roll out.
[Freddy]:
So what are we going to do then?
We're going to politely ask him
to pull over and give us
the car he just stole?
That's one theory.
- We said no goddamn guns!
- We said no guns.
Yeah, well, we also said
Jake would be a part of it,
didn't we?
Seems like all kinds
of shit is changing.
Wait, you just have masks, too,
just laying around?
Jesus Christ.
[Cam]: No, no, no, no.
This is better.
This is good.
You know, we let him come to us.
It's better.
All right.
Where the fuck are you, Freddy?
Hmm? Call me back.
[text chimes]
I fucking warned you.
Here we go.
Okay, here we go.
[Cam]: This is the guy.
This is him.
That's the one, that's the one.
[Cam]: Don't get too close.
[phone chimes]
[whispering]
Motherfucker!
Goddamnit!
[engine accelerating]
[tires squealing]
Stay in the van.
We'll take the car.
Get out of the car, now!
Go, go, go, go!
Really?
The fuck is going on?
Get the fuck in front of the car!
Who the fuck are you?
Move, motherfucker! Move!
[Woman]:
Go, go, go, go!
Get down! Get down!
[yelling]
You're fucking with the wrong people.
Get down!
Down on the ground.
[woman]: Face down
on the ground!
Go? Okay.
[Alexi]:
Down, motherfucker!
Face down! Face down!
- You're all dead.
- Keep 'em down.
[Freddy]: Put your head
on the ground. Down.
I'm taking the car.
You think I'm just going
to leave it up to you
and take my fucking chances, yeah?
Well, it's the best chance you got.
Now, you're a clever kid,
and you should know better
than to think I'd go to war with you,
but make no mistake,
if you do not lower that gun,
I will paint the streets
with the inside of your fucking skull.
[Woman]: We've got to move!
Just go with them!
[Cam]: Kid!
Get in the car.
Yeah, all right.
[Cam]:
Start the fucking panels.
[Alexi]: Back is empty.
[Cam]:
It's not fucking here!
It's not here.
[Freddy]:
Are you fucking kidding me?
Oh, goddammit!
Fuck!
[Alexi]:
Looks pretty empty here.
[Cam]: It's not here.
It's not fucking here.
[knocking, tapping on car]
[Cam]: Where the fuck is it?
Where are you?
Fuck.
[Freddy]: Hold up a sec!
What? Whaddya got?
[Alexi]: There's nothing
around the engine.
Ah! Hey! Hey!
I got it!
[Cam]: Whatcha got?
Show me! Show me! Show me!
Hell yeah.
I got a fucking stiffy on here.
Is that the real thing!
[Freddy]: Yeah!
You sniff quality, kid!
[laughs]
Holy shit...
[Freddy]:
That's $20 million right there.
[Cam]:
You got a great eye, kid!
You got a fucking great nose.
You can sniff out fucking quality.
Let's take a look at these bitches.
Let's see these.
Oh, baby, look at those.
Look at those.
Look at those beauties.
That never gets old, eh?
Let's get the fuck out of here.
[Freddy]: Oh, man...
Okay, done?
You done?
Don't you lose them, Freddy.
[laughing]
[loud crash]
Get out of the car!
