Ma, you almost done?
Still workin', baby.
It's the weekend.
How 'bout we watch a movie,

Maybe later.
It's a date then.
[LAUGHS]
Oh, yeah?
Who's payin'?
Oh, look at this face.
My big, strong bull of a boy.
You're gettin' so
handsome, I can't take it.
[JACK AND BENNY ROARING
AND SHRIEKING PLAYFULLY]
Boys, not inside!
You'll break something,
runnin' around like lunatics.
- Jack, stop it!
- [JACK ROARS]
[FRANCIS] Benny, what
the hell are you doing?
Do you hear me? Get out of there!
God damn it!
Sorry, Ma.
You're in trouble now.
'Cause we
are a zombie family.
[BENNY] No! [GIGGLES] No!
[FRANCIS] I'm gonna
eat those sweet brains.
- [BENNY] No!
- Let's feast!
[BENNY] No!
[FRANCIS] Delicious brains!
- My favorite. What a treat!
- [JACK GROANING]
Jack, come here, sweetheart.
[BENNY] Now I'm a zombie.
- Must eat Ozzie's brain.
- Benny!
Will you take the boys out for me?
You got it, Mom. Of course.
Thank you. My good boy.
Go take 'em.
All right, Benny, Oz,

going outside for a while.
Nah. I'm gonna stay and help Ma.
Oswald, you need to exercise your leg,
build up your strength.
[SIGHS] Benny.
Hold still.
This stupid zipper!
[SIGHS] I'm sorry, biscuit.
We'll get you a new coat soon. [KISSES]
Oh, and, Jack, I want
you to find Rex down there
and give him his book, will ya?
Oswald, give me the book.
- I can do it.
- I said Jack.
- [JACK] Okay.
- [FRANCIS] Go on.
Let's go.
Oh, and, boys, the second
those streetlights come on,
I want your little
asses home. Ya hear me?
[BOYS] Yes, Ma.
[HORNS HONKING]
- I don't wanna play baseball.
- You don't wanna play baseball,
- what do you wanna play?
- I don't know. Soccer.
Damn.
Look at those rims.
Rex must be the richest guy in Gotham.
Is it made of real gold?
No, Benny, it's just paint.
Gotta be something, though, huh?
[MAN WHIMPERS] I'm sorry.
Get him up. Get his ass up.
- Been waitin' all week
- Hey, we should come back later.
- Rex!
- [JACK] Hey.
[REX] Jackie boy, that you?
Shit!
Fuckin' Popeye over here.
Come here.
Stay here with Benny.
Ma don't want you getting involved.
Hey, fellas, you remember
Francis Cobb's son?
He's joinin' the ROTC, be
a hero. Ain't that right?
[JACK] Yeah.
What you got for me?
[DRAMATIC MUSICAL STING]
- [REX] How's your mom doing?
- [JACK] She's all right.
Give her my regards.
Hey, Rex. Nice to see ya.
Oz, watch your mouth.
- How much he give ya?
- Fifty. Come on.
Holy shit! Can I see?
We can go to the arcade and
play Double Dragon forever.
No. I'm gonna give it to Ma.
[THUNDER RUMBLES]
Rain's coming. We gotta get inside.
Benny, you wanna play flashlight tag?
- Yes. Flashlight tag.
- Yeah?
- [TRAIN TRUNDLING]
- [RAIN POURING]
Mr. Calabrese don't
pay Ma nearly enough,
nothing close to what she deserves.
What are you talkin' about?
He just gave us 50 bucks.
Look, I'm tellin' you,
he ain't a good guy.
You ever wonder where
he gets all that money?
I don't have to.
He's a gangster.
- [THUNDER RUMBLES]
- [JACK] Now it's coming down.
Here we go. Here we go.
Benny, you first.
Here you go. Oz.
[BENNY] Got 'em.
I'm keepin' the red one.
Ozzie, you're it first.
Fine.
Count to 10 slowly.
And no peekin'.

Oswald, Jesus! You're
soaking. What happened?
Come here.
Where are your brothers?
They went to the movies.
With what money?
Rex gave Jack some cash.
Why didn't you go?
I wanted to be with you.
Jack shouldn't have let
you walk home by yourself.
I don't need Jack's help.
Course not.
'Cause my Oswald's tough
and gettin' stronger every goddamn day.
What do ya say we watch
our own movie, huh?
Have our little date?
Can I pick which one?
Well, you always pick the
same damn thing, but sure.
[RAIN POURING]
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
Oswald, what movie did
you say they went to?
I'm worried I'm gonna have to
pick 'em up with all this rain.
[CLOCK CHIMING]
Uh
Beetlejuice, I think.
Here, I made your favorite,
whiskey and soda.
Thank you.
[MUFFLED SHOUTING]
Oh, Christ. What I wouldn't
do to get out of here.
Live in one of them penthouses
all the celebrities buy.
That'd be nice, huh?

I ain't resisting.
Hey, Sal.
- [THUD]
- [OZ GRUNTS, COUGHS]
I found this at your place.
Never cared much for the game, myself.
- [COUGHS]
- Too much sittin' and waitin'.
[OZ GRUNTS]
Feels a little
different, doesn't it, Oz?
No cops, no guards,
nothing to hold me back.
- [BLOWS LANDING]
- [GRUNTS, GASPS]
- They were my blood. My wife!
- [GROANS]
Sir, you have an agreement
- with Ms. Gigante.
- My son! My heart!
- You filthy piece of shit!
- Sir!
Sofia got you on a
tight leash, huh, Sal?
[SALVATORE] Nah. Nah, nah.
She and I, we want the
same things in the end.
[OZ GRUNTS, GROANS]
[SALVATORE SIGHS] Yeah.
That's just a little taste
of what you got comin'.
We got your mother.
Yeah.
We got your family now.
- [TOAST SCRAPING DRYLY]
- [CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]
[PHONE VIBRATING]
Good morning.
[SALVATORE ON PHONE] Sofia, I got him.
How's the old lady?
Sofia! Jesus, don't-don't hurt her!
She got nothin' to do with this.
Come on! I'll do whatever you want.
- [SALVATORE] You hear that?
- Do you feel better?
[SALVATORE SIGHS]
It's not enough, Sofia.
I know. Have patience.
We're gonna kill him soon.
[SALVATORE] Okay, okay.
I'll call you when
we're headed your way.
You're taking us to see your operation.
I ain't doin' shit till
I know my ma's all right.
Just let me talk to her.
Are you tryin' to make a deal, Oz?
With me?
Nothin' personal, remember?
Huh? Just part of the game.
I hold up my end. You hold up yours.
You remember? You
said that to me. Right?
You looked me right in the eye,
like a gentleman,
and you assured me you
wouldn't hurt my family.
Guess what. I'm a gentleman too,
and I'm gonna give you
the exact same deal.
Go on.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
[SOFIA] I brought you breakfast.
You nervous?
No.
Francis Cobb
That's your name, right?
You know, Oz told me you
died a few years back.
- Mmm.
- He was torn up about it, too.
I actually felt bad for him.
Yeah, well
some people are easy marks.
[SOFIA] Mmm.
So, did you bring me
all the way out here
to feed me toast, or you gonna kill me?
[CHUCKLES]
Depends on your son.
He's with Salvatore Maroni right now.
And if Oz leads us to the
drugs that he stole from me,
then there are options.
You don't know shit about my boy, do ya?
He's gonna roast Sal
like he did his wife
and their bastard son,
and then he's comin' for you.
You have a lot of
confidence in your son.
Yes, I do.
So how'd you end up here then?
[TOAST CRUNCHES]
You know, Oswald used
to rave about this house,
how beautiful it was,
but I I just ain't so impressed.
This place ain't got
no goddamn personality.
You afraid of color or somethin'?
You can blame my father.
The Falcones were a bit conservative.
Oh, yeah, that's right. You're
a What? A Gigante now.
Yeah, yeah. Oswald told me.
What are you gonna do next?
Dye your hair pink? Get an ass tattoo?
That'll teach your daddy a lesson.
[LAUGHS DERISIVELY]
[SOFIA CHUCKLES]
Oz tells you a lot, huh?
Yes, he does.
[DRAGGING CHAIR NOISILY]
I'll be honest with you.
All those years working for my family,
I never gave much
thought to Oz's childhood.
I know the, uh, highlights, of course.
He loves making a meal out of those.
"I'm an Eastside kid.
I got a bum leg.
No father."
But those things don't
make you a monster, do they?
Someone shaped him.
- [LAUGHS]
- [CHUCKLES]
Okay, you wanna know
about my boy, Oswald?
Please.
He's always two steps ahead.
All those years, driving you around,
cleanin' up after you and your family,
he was watchin', studyin'.
He knows this game better than you.
You changed your name. So what?
Okay, you think
everything's different now.
That don't change the game, sweetheart.
Drugs is drugs.
Crack, Bliss, dope, Drops
it's all the same shit.
Same winners, same losers.
So, you call yourself
whatever the hell you want,
but when my Oswald puts a bullet
in that pretty little skull of yours,
I'll be tap-dancing on your grave,
like Ginger fucking Rogers.
It's a good thing your other boys died
before you could turn them
into monsters like Oz, huh?
You shut your goddamn mouth.
What happened to them?
Are they even dead?
Or is Oz keeping them locked up
in some Eastside slum, too?
What are you
Why would you Wh
You hear it too, don't you?
[SOFIA] Hmm?
The rain-rain.
[SNIFFS]
[CRYING] They shoulda been home.
I went lookin' all goddamn night.
You should be scouring the
streets for Christ's sake.
That's your job, ain't it?
Put out a goddamn report, something!
I told ya. Jack is 15. Benny's 10.
- Your boys?
- Yeah.
Jack and Benny?
No one seen 'em at the
movies. The arcade's closed.
Probably soakin' wet and cold.
They didn't have their umbrellas,
and it's been rainin' all night.
Please, you gotta find 'em.
It's been too long. [SNIFFS]
[GENTLE MUSIC PLAYING]
Francis, where do you
think you are right now?
Francis?
[SNIFFS]
Yeah, you get the fuck away from me.
[MUSIC TURNS MENACING]
[KETTLE STEAMING]
[DOOR OPENS]
[JULIAN] Sofia?
[DOOR CLOSES]
Why are you here?
[JULIAN] We may have a problem.
I have a friend that works
at Brookside Children's Home.
She's a psychiatrist.
Brookside is the residential facility
that's looking after your cousin Gia.
Okay.
Evidently, she's asking
to speak to the police.
She's the only loose
end from the gassing.
But Gia saw something that night.
Do you know what she might have seen?
- No.
- [SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
I don't know.
I don't want this to be a burden to you.
[KETTLE WHISTLING]
And I'm happy
to speak to her.
Sofia, if she talks
[WHISTLING SUBSIDES]
I'll keep her quiet.
But I could use your help
with something else.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
[JULIAN] Francis.
I'm Dr. Rush.
I'd like to ask you a few questions.

[GUN FIRING]
[MENACING MUSIC PLAYING]
Jesus.
[GRUNTS]
This place is filthy.
Figures you'd tuck your
tail into a shit pipe.
Listen up, everybody.
Oswald Cobb is no longer in charge.
As of now,
you all work for the Gigante
and the Maroni families.
So I want you to pack up this product
quickly and quietly. All right?
- The fuck are you lookin' at?
- Hey, easy.
- Fuck that!
- Hey. Hey, hey, hey.
All right, I understand.
You need a minute to process this.
You take that time now.
Good. Get back to work!
Listen, Sal, you got some
hate out. That's good.
I gave you what you want.
This whole thing, it's yours now.
Start of a whole new empire.
Why you gonna share it with
Carmine's daughter, huh?
Jesus!
After everything the
Falcones took from you
Look at this shit.
You got access to the whole city.
Just like a sewer rat.
After we finishing
packing up Sofia's drugs,
I'm gonna take you to her place.
That's where you die, Oz.
Only thing left for
her and I to figure out
is how we're gonna do it.
[CHUCKLES]
You know what I'll never forget, Sal?
It's the smell.
The burning flesh,
you know, muscle, fat, shit.
The smell of hair.
I didn't anticipate that.
It's real distinct.
Tell me somethin'. Did
your beautiful wife, Nadia,
did she wear a special kind
of hairspray or somethin'?
'Cause, man, she went
up like a tinderbox.

[DISCORDANT MUSIC PLAYING]

Gia, you have a visitor.
[SOFIA] Hi.
Thank you.
[DOOR SHUTS]
I know your doctor has
been asking questions.
Did you tell her that you saw something?
I'm here to help you.
It's okay. You can tell me.
What did you see?
I saw a mask.
In your bag.
Did you kill them?
My mom and my dad?
Is that what you think?
That
I would do something
as horrible as that?
Gia.
I loved your mom and dad.
I know you want someone to blame.
But it was nobody's fault.
It was a terrible accident.
Do you understand?
Good.
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
Did you do this to yourself?
Come here.
Come here.
It might sound confusing
and I know that it hurts
but your mom and your dad,
everyone in our family,
they were bad people,
who deserved it.
And I am glad that they're gone.
Don't hurt yourself because of them.
This is a gift.
You're gonna get out of here,
and you're gonna find a new home.
And
whatever woman you become
you deserve much better than
what this family could have offered.

Salvatore.
Nah. Sal's dead, sweetheart.
[SIGHS] Take it in.
It ain't how you were hopin' it'd go.
You wanna kill me.
I get it.
But there is one thing you want more.
Ever since I known ya, you know,
you had your eye on the throne.
Now it's your chance.
All you gotta do is bring her to me,
just bring her to me.
Not a hair on her head out of place.
I'll give it to you,
the whole fuckin' thing,
the Bliss, my operation, my connects.
The keys to the fuckin'
kingdom are here, Sofia.
Whaddya say?
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
[JULIAN] And then it
was just you and Oz.
Tell me how that felt.
Go with it.
Julian.
[SWALLOWS HARD] I need to talk to you.
[DOOR THUDS SHUT]
Salvatore Maroni is dead.
Oz killed him.
Are you all right?
Oz wants me to bring him his mother
in exchange for the
product. [INHALES DEEPLY]
And, uh
- I agreed.
- No. Sofia, it's a trap.
I know.
But it doesn't matter.
None of it matters.
What did Gia say to you?
Is she gonna be a problem?
Before my father put me away,
he wanted me to take over the Family.
He put me in an institution.
And the second I got out, I walked
right into another one.
She's right.
Francis is right. I thought I
was doing something different,
and I I thought that I
I thought that I was different.
But I'm still playing my father's game.
I'm-I'm abiding by his rules.
I [BREATHING HEAVILY]
Jesus Christ, I can't
breathe. [GASPS]
I can't breathe. I can't breathe.
Sofia, look at me.
[PANTING]
Your father's hand is not
on your throat anymore.
It doesn't matter what he or
anyone else wanted for you.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
What do you want?
I wanna be free.
[EXHALES SLOWLY]
I wanna be free.
And I want Oz to feel pain
real pain,
the kind that I have felt.
I need him to suffer
for what he's done.
Richie, you heard from Vic?
Nah. I just keep getting his voicemail.
[QUIETLY] All right.
[LOUDLY] All right!
I know this ain't the
job you signed up for.
But you're the only army I got.
I wouldn't ask for another.
All right?
Come on.
- [WALKIE-TALKIE SQUAWKS]
- [ZEKE] Oz?
Zeke, you got somethin'?
[ZEKE] There's a black
G-Wagen heading your way.
That's our girl.
All right, everybody out of sight.
Fingers off triggers

[ZEKE] Car's inside the tunnels.
Gates are closed and locked.
Good.
[EXHALES]
Come on, doll.
What are you waitin' for?
[PHONE RINGING]
Hi.
Sweetheart, there ain't no goin' back.
The doors are locked.
I got your product. You got my ma.
As long as she's okay
we're good here.
We gonna stare at each other all night?
You wanna finish this? Come on.
Your mother is a very
interesting woman, Oz.
Yeah, I know what my mother is.
[SOFIA] She helped me
realize a few things.
I keep trying on all
these different faces,
but
none of them feel quite right.

That it's the same for you and me.
Of course you do.
I guess this game was
made for men like you
like my father.
Same winners.
Same losers.
It's why everyone expected
me to die in Arkham.
No one even considered
that I might learn something there
how to play new games.
[OZ BREATHING HEAVILY]

Nothin' personal, remember?
Huh? Just part of the game.
I hold up my end. You hold up yours.
You remember? You

You looked me right in the eye,

I actually felt bad for him.
Yeah, well
some people are easy marks.
[SOFIA] Mmm.
So, did you bring me
all the way out here
to feed me toast, or you gonna kill me?
[CHUCKLES]
Depends on your son.
He's with Salvatore Maroni right now.
And if Oz leads us to the
drugs that he stole from me,
then there are options.
You don't know shit about my boy, do ya?
He's gonna roast Sal
like he did his wife
and their bastard son,
and then he's comin' for you.
You have a lot of
confidence in your son.
Yes, I do.
So how'd you end up here then?
[TOAST CRUNCHES]
You know, Oswald used
to rave about this house,
how beautiful it was,
but I I just ain't so impressed.
This place ain't got

You can blame my father.
The Falcones were a bit conservative.
Oh, yeah, that's right. You're
a What? A Gigante now.
Yeah, yeah. Oswald told me.
What are you gonna do next?
Dye your hair pink? Get an ass tattoo?
That'll teach your daddy a lesson.
[LAUGHS DERISIVELY]
[SOFIA CHUCKLES]
Oz tells you a lot, huh?
Yes, he does.
[DRAGGING CHAIR NOISILY]
I'll be honest with you.
All those years working for my family,
I never gave much
thought to Oz's childhood.
I know the, uh, highlights, of course.
He loves making a meal out of those.
"I'm an Eastside kid.
I got a bum leg.
No father."
But those things don't
make you a monster, do they?
Someone shaped him.
- [LAUGHS]
- [CHUCKLES]
Okay, you wanna know
about my boy, Oswald?
Please.
He's always two steps ahead.
All those years, driving you around,
cleanin' up after you and your family,
he was watchin', studyin'.
He knows this game better than you.
You changed your name. So what?
Okay, you think
everything's different now.
That don't change the game, sweetheart.
Drugs is drugs.
Crack, Bliss, dope, Drops
it's all the same shit.
Same winners, same losers.
So, you call yourself

I'll be tap-dancing on your grave,

It's a good thing your other boys died
before you could turn them
into monsters like Oz, huh?
You shut your goddamn mouth.
What happened to them?
Are they even dead?
Or is Oz keeping them locked up

Good.
[EXHALES]
Come on, doll.
What are you waitin' for?
[PHONE RINGING]
Hi.
Sweetheart, there ain't no goin' back.
The doors are locked.
I got your product. You got my ma.
As long as she's okay
we're good here.
We gonna stare at each other all night?
You wanna finish this? Come on.
Your mother is a very
interesting woman, Oz.
Yeah, I know what my mother is.
[SOFIA] She helped me
realize a few things.
I keep trying on all
these different faces,
but
none of them feel quite right.

I guess this game was
made for men like you
like my father.
Same winners.
Same losers.
It's why everyone expected
me to die in Arkham.
No one even considered
that I might learn something there
how to play new games.
