Rescue Me s02e13 Episode Script
Justice
How's it going, Tom? Can I get you anything? You want some food or something? A beautiful service.
I thought the priest did a great job.
You need anything to eat, sweetheart? Did he say anything yet? Not yet.
Hey, you need anything, you just holler, all right? 'Cause we'll be right here.
Tommy, you okay in there? Jesus, I thought you fell in.
I got one of these for each of us.
This one's Coke with a shitload of bourbon in it.
It's the only thing that's gonna take the pain away.
Not a-- Not a person in here is gonna think the worse of you.
I'm so sorry, Tommy.
I'm so sorry.
Hey, is that-- Is that the probie and Garrity? God, this party is like a goddamn meat market.
You all right? Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll check with you later, all right? You sure? Okay, cheers.
I'll check with you later.
Was he wearing a helmet? I don't know.
No point in asking now.
Not gonna change anything.
You keeping an eye on him? Is he going to his meetings? Oh, yeah.
I mean, he missed a couple because of everything.
But, uh, other than using fake names and not coping with the fact that he's got a serious problem, he's doing great.
I hope to Christ he doesn't fall off the wagon.
I wouldn't blame the poor bastard if he drove the wagon right through the liquor store window and drank the entire inventory.
Hi.
- Hi.
- How you doin'? - I miss my brother.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll bet.
But you know what, Katy? You just, uh-- You just gotta remember that you're gonna see him again someday, you know, up in heaven.
You wanna help me out here? Say something.
Say something.
Say something! Um, see, Katy, um, where he is right now, there's no pain.
He's happy, and he, um, doesn't remember anything about the accident.
God makes that go away.
Is that true? That's what I heard.
Wow.
Wow.
Listen, Katy, you just-- You gotta know that Connor's fine, and he's being taken care of, and you're gonna see him again.
No, I won't.
Yes, you will, sweetie.
I promise.
No, I won't, because there's no heaven.
Of course there's a heaven, honey.
Prove it.
Um, you see, y-you just-- You have to believe.
I do believe.
I believe there's no heaven, just like there's no God.
Human beings made those things up so we could feel special.
More special than animals or bugs, because we're scared.
We need to think there's someone out there protecting us, watching over us.
We're nothing.
We come from dirt.
We go back into the dirt.
See ya.
Listen, Katy-- Can you please leave me alone now? Absolutely.
Honey, how you doin'? Not great.
I know.
If you ever want to talk-- 'Cause, you know, I know what it's like to lose someone so close.
So, I just feel like if you ever want to talk to me ever, Janet-- Thanks.
And, honey, you can't blame Tommy.
There's nothing that he could've done.
You don't know that.
Okay, but look at him.
He's hurting too.
I mean, you can't make this harder on him than it already is.
Is this any of your business? Yeah, you know what? I think it is.
Because, Janet, he needs you, and you can't turn your back on him.
Can somebody get her away from me, please? Really.
Get off me! Don't touch me! You know what? You have a good man, Janet, and you don't even know it.
You've never known it.
I'm so sorry.
I'm leaving, Tom.
I can't stay here.
Everywhere I look, it-- I'm taking the girls, and I'm going to a hotel.
On another day C'mon, c'mon With these ropes I tied can we do no wrong Now we grieve 'cause now is gone Things were good when we were young With my teeth locked down I can see the blood Of a thousand men who have come and gone Now we grieve 'cause now is gone Things were good when we were young Is it safe to say C'mon, c'mon Was it right to leave C'mon, c'mon Will I ever learn C'mon, c'mon C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon You had to be there, Lou.
It was eerie.
Yeah, spooky.
Like a horror movie where the little kid's a total freak who kills everyone in the end.
Yeah, and the way she was talking, uh, and her eyes.
She didn't blink the entire time we were with her.
She didn't.
I was watching.
You know, guys, she's a little girl.
Her brother just died.
She's dealing with it.
Oh, no.
She's dealt with it, you know? Rock solid.
You should have heard her.
No heaven, no God.
You know what? The thing is, she sounded so sure.
- Anybody seen Jerry? - Yeah.
He's at the hospital, Chief, dealing with his wife.
- What's wrong with her now? - She tried to kill herself.
I'll be doing the same if people don't start showing up for their shifts on time.
Heart of gold with a creamy center of pure shit.
But seriously, guys, this whole Katy thing is freaking me out.
I can't shake it.
- So you think there's a heaven? - Of course.
- People standing around on clouds all day? - Well, yeah.
- With wings? - We-- I don't know about wings.
That seems a little stupid.
But people standing around all day on water vapor.
That's perfectly reasonable? Look, all I'm saying is that there is a heaven, okay? I've always believed that.
What it is exactly, that's up to each individual person.
You know? Like my heaven, for example, I mean, there's clouds.
-We've established that.
-But there's a lot of downtime, you know? And you can play video games all day.
Oh, and the best part is, if you, like, want a Mountain Dew or something, you don't have to go and get it and open the can, you know? You just-- You think it, and the taste just appears in your mouth, and you're quenched.
- You know, your thirst.
-Cool.
Are you going to be able to stay at home with her? No.
I-I-I can't.
I work.
Can you afford 24-hour in-home care? I'm a New York City firefighter.
I can barely afford Then I think there's really only one option.
Which is? Moving her into a facility.
There's an excellent extended-care facility in Brookfield, Connecticut.
A friend of mine runs it.
Dr.
Philip Brockelman.
They deal almost exclusively with Alzheimer's patients.
Hold on here.
Hold on.
You're telling me that I have to put my wife of 31 years into a home? Is that what you're telling me? I think it's come to that, Mr.
Reilly.
No, I-I couldn't.
I can't.
The next time she tries to kill herself, do you think you might consider it then? I don't mean to be cold.
No.
No, you don't mean to be.
Franks and beans with a delightful green salad.
You have roughly three minutes to make disparaging comments, and then I will be back.
Enjoy.
Just glad Julia Child didn't live to see this.
You good? You need anything? All right.
Well, if you do, you get your ass downstairs and get it yourself, all right? Put in an appearance, okay? You know, I always used to think how great it would be if you would just shut the hell up and let me talk.
It ain't that great.
- Yeah? - Hi, Kenny.
It's me.
I got really good news.
Oh, that's great.
I could use some.
Shoot.
I'm out.
I'm done.
I'm free, thanks to you.
He took the money? Yes, sir.
I don't belong to F-Bomb anymore.
I don't belong to anyone.
Just you.
That's great.
We gotta celebrate.
I'm gonna go out and get the biggest, most expensive bottle of champagne I can get my fat fingers on.
You don't have any money.
It's all right.
I'll steal it.
I'll be over right after my shift.
No, no.
Wait, wait.
I can't tonight.
What do you mean? We gotta celebrate.
We will when I get back.
I gotta go to Jersey a couple of days.
My mom is sick.
My father is useless.
I know what you mean.
I gotta go cook and clean and shit.
- When are you gonna be back? - Friday.
We'll celebrate Friday night.
I can't wait.
I feel like I'm kind of getting a second chance here, you know? And thanks, babe.
For what? I'll tell you Friday.
I don't know what to do.
It's the first time in my life I feel totally lost.
When's she out of the hospital, Chief? Friday.
Little girl doctor tells me I should take her straight up to Brookfield.
Just drive up there and drop her off and drive away.
Not see her for, like, six weeks.
Jesus Christ, man.
Six weeks? Why? She says so Jeannie can readjust to her new surroundings.
As if her brain will reset if she doesn't have anything to remind her of her past life.
Whew! That's cold, Chief.
This goddamn disease, it's stealing my girl away.
Don't look at me, kid.
Paul.
Franco.
Hey.
Hey, Laura, we're packing up.
I know.
Probie lost his halligan for the second time this week.
I'm helping him find it.
Nice, Mike.
Here, I'll help you look for it.
So, you, uh-- You done any more thinking? A little.
Anything you want to share? Yeah.
I'm an idiot.
Excuse me? You know, this firefighting thing wasn't a lark.
I didn't just come up with this one day.
I saw a news show when I was, like, seven years old about a female firefighter, and I was, like, "That's it.
That's what I want to do.
" And I went and I told my father, and-- he pretty much laughed in my face.
He was, like, "You can't do that, sweetheart.
You're a girl.
" Then he got a ton of mileage out of it.
He told it at every family dinner party for years.
Then when I started telling my boyfriend, it was, "You can't do that, baby.
You're a girl.
" By the time I got to the academy, it was every guy saying, "You don't belong here, bitch.
You're a girl.
" But I had really thick skin by then, you know? And, uh, I learned how to cry when nobody was looking, and I did a ton of sit-ups.
I thought I was gonna break my back.
But I became a firefighter.
And then when I actually get assigned to a regular house and start doing the job, what would be my next course of action? I'm gonna start banging a guy in my crew.
And then I'm gonna fall in love with a guy in my crew.
You know, 'cause he's hot and sweet, and I think on some level I thought he needed me because I'm a girl.
I had to come all this way to learn that my father was right? I'm just a girl, you know? I don't have anybody to blame but myself.
Hey! I found it.
Thanks, Laura.
You're welcome.
Connor? Hello? Connor? I, uh-- My name is, uh, Tommy, and, uh, I'm an alcoholic.
- Hi, Tom.
- I'm also a, uh, fireman.
And, uh, five days ago, my only son was killed by a drunk driver, and I don't really give a shit about anything anymore.
Hey, pal.
I tried your cell.
I tried you at home.
I, uh, figured you'd be here.
I'm not here to judge you, bro.
Knock yourself out.
Janet's pretty bad.
Yeah.
Started talking crazy the other night.
She was talking about jumping out the window so she could be with Connor.
I was about to head home.
I ended up sleeping on the couch with one eye open.
You know what I mean? The girls, though, man, uh, they're tough.
They're okay.
But Janet-- Janet's gonna take a while.
We got the guy, Tommy.
We got him in Maryland.
Still driving the car.
You don't want to know that story.
I think about it, and, uh, it just makes me so angry, you know? It turns out this guy, he's had, like, five D.
U.
I.
's in the last three years.
And the thing is, he used to work at the D.
A.
's office, so he's got friends everywhere, you know? He's walked every time.
I started poking my nose around a little.
People are telling me he's gonna skate on this one.
Can you believe that? He smiled for the cameras the last time he got off.
They gave him 60 hours of community service.
They're holding him down in Baltimore.
We're sending a couple of guys down there on Friday to pick him up.
They'll be bringing him back up to Hoboken sometime early Friday night.
We're gonna book him, set bail, and after that, it's anybody's ball game.
Find out what time the train comes in on Friday.
You sure? I'm sure.
Done.
Yeah? It's me.
I cannot come over right now.
No, listen.
I'm at Debbie's.
Wah, wah, wah! Boo-hoo-hoo! You're such a drama queen.
You should get out of my apartment! I'm scared.
She's out of control, and I don't know-- Holy shit! Give me the address.
I'm a little confused right now.
I mean, well, I'm confused most of the time, but right now I'm-I'm super confused.
See, when I was little, it was simple, you know? There was heaven and there was hell.
And if you were good, you went to heaven, and if you were bad, you went the other way.
And if you were, like, an innocent child or-or a baby who choked on something, you went-- you went to limbo.
Remember limbo? Yeah.
And then you guys canceled limbo.
And now, I just-- I don't-- I got this dead kid on my hands.
And I got this live kid who-who's telling me that there is no heaven, there's only dirt, apparently, and-- I don't know.
I'm just-- I'm getting some mixed signals here.
So, I figured the best thing to do is go right to the source.
Think you could help me out here? Show me a sign? All righty then.
Holy shit.
I'm sorry.
I didn't-- Sorry.
That was-- Oh, my God! That's-- Thank you, thank you.
Thank God you're here.
Listen, I don't even know what I did.
She totally snapped.
She just went absolutely ape shit.
And now she's back there cooling off and-- Hmm.
Well, shit.
Well, look who's here.
Now it's a goddamn party.
You gotta leave her alone.
My house, my rules, prick.
Do you see what I'm talking about? Shut up! Do me a favor.
Just go upstairs for a couple minutes, okay? Yeah, and clean the bathroom while you're up there.
It's a goddamn mess! She had to call you, her knight in shining armor.
Shit.
- You gotta stop hitting her.
- Don't tell me what to do, slick.
What? You want a taste? I'm petrified.
Do it again.
One more time.
Oh, shit.
Are you okay? I'm-- I'm gonna go get a drink.
Um, your boyfriend's falling apart in there.
You might want to check it out.
We got a guy hanging out a window up on exposure "B".
The first two companies are having trouble getting to the fire floor.
Oh, yeah.
Hey, asshole, what are you doing? Put your helmet on.
Pick up your gloves.
Forget it.
Give me a size-up.
Unbelievable.
Nice to have you back, Tommy.
Nice to be back.
Thirteen.
Twelve, shithead.
Move.
Let's go, Probie, now! Nils, where's that saw? Nils, come on.
Fire up.
Let's start some venting over here, okay? We're looking for something to tie up to, okay? Stevie, I'm gonna need you set up right here.
Guys, something's going on down there.
Heads up! Heads up! -Guys, anything.
We got nothing.
What do we do? -I don't know.
Patty Brown.
Patty Brown.
Probie, get on the ground.
You guys got it.
Stevie, right here.
You ready, Spider-Man? You and me.
-Let's go.
You and me.
-On the floor, on the floor.
Tie him up, Tommy.
All right.
See you boys on the other side.
See you later.
Good luck.
Go.
Go.
Nice.
Nice.
Go.
Go.
Good boy, Franco.
Did you see that-- I can't see him.
Sir, relax.
Will you relax? We're here to help you.
No, no, no! Don't, don't, don't! - Good! Good! - Good.
Good job, Franco.
That's it.
No! Don't, don't, don't, don't! Don't, don't.
Sir-- Sir, please, please.
I'm here to help you.
It's a strong rope.
You're gonna knock me off! It's a strong rope.
I'm not gonna knock you off.
Don't touch me.
Sir, I need you to stay calm down there! It's okay.
Please, sir.
Please, just-- Don't-- Don't-- - Man over! - Get it! Damn it! Franco, are you good? Oh, Jesus! And he's in.
We got him.
We got him.
Good job, everybody.
My balls! My balls! Off! Off! Off! Battalion 15 to 62 roof.
We got another one.
Another what? Another civilian hanging out of a window.
Same side, southern exposure.
Tommy, check on that for me.
Listen, I'm gonna need a new rope up here.
- Can't help you there.
- It's a negative on the rope? We got two floors below the fire floor fully involved.
Can't get a rope to you.
You have to use the same one.
Yeah, copy that.
Pull this in.
We gotta do it again, guys.
Follow me over here.
Lou, I'll go.
No.
I'm the lightest one.
No, you're not going.
But the rope's been compromised.
I'm not sending a girl over the roof of an I'm going.
Now back off.
He's going.
We're gonna chop right here, Tommy.
I'm gonna grab my ax.
- Now, sweetheart-- - Battalion 15 to 62 roof.
What's going on, ladies? You got a sewing circle going on up there? Come on.
Talk to me.
Tommy's getting roped up.
He's getting ready to go.
Just give us a second.
Right? See ya.
Easy.
Easy.
Hey, sweetheart, come here.
Come here now.
I can't.
My mom, she's at the store.
She told me not to leave the apartment.
No, no.
Come on, sweetheart.
You can do it.
I can't.
Yeah.
Come on, darling.
Come on.
Come on.
I can't.
Out ya go.
Attagirl.
Good girl.
Okay, he's got her.
He's got her.
Here you go, sweetheart.
You're gonna go with these guys, okay? You're all right.
Good girl.
Okay.
Come on.
Good girl.
Yeah.
-Good girl.
- You okay? All right! Shit! - Aw, shit! - Oh! - He's-He's got him! He's got him! He's got him.
Oh, Davey, I'm getting too old for this kind of bullshit.
Hey, you certainly earned your money today-- all 15 cents of it.
Yes, I did.
What's going on? You want to grab a bite? No, I'd love to, but I gotta go shopping, get some new duds.
Got a big date tomorrow night.
Oh, really? Oh, yeah! Yeah.
That huge explosion you're gonna hear tomorrow night, about 8:15 or so, that's gonna be Lou getting it on.
Oh, I'll light a candle.
It's nice to hear your voice, Tom.
Thanks, pal.
Now shut up and get the hell out of here.
You get the hell out of here.
Good luck.
Hey, "T".
I cannot tell you how sorry I am to hear about your situation.
Thanks.
How you doin'? I'm doing all right, you know? Listen, why don't you take three days? Go on a little bender.
Get it out of your system.
Hmm? No, no, no.
I'm-I'm fine.
I'm-I'm-- That's not what I heard.
Listen, take the time.
I already put in for it, okay? You can thank me later.
I-I'd actually rather work, Chief.
Hello? Hey, you're not gonna believe this.
I just had a little chat with Perolli.
- I think the prick's still having me followed.
- Yeah? How do you know that? He comes up to me and says, "Hey, why don't you go on a bender for three days?" I go, "No, I'm fine.
" And then he says, uh, "That's not what I heard.
" I mean, he's gotta have somebody tailing me, right? I've been keeping an eye out.
I haven't seen any familiar faces.
Hold on there, Tommy.
I got another call.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll wait.
Tom, you there? Tommy? Tom? Son of a bitch! I knew it was you! What are you doing? I knew it was you! Get your hands off me.
You lied to me, you son of a bitch! I'm betting I punch in the number right here, and Perolli's number comes up! I don't know what you're talking about.
I told you the guy called me.
Yeah, you didn't tell me you call him, asshole! Explain yourself! What do you want me to say, huh? All right.
The guy called me.
You want me to let you go slipping and sliding away like the last time? You know he's my biggest enemy in the goddamn firehouse! You asked me to sponsor you! I'm trying to be responsible! Really? Yeah.
The guy calls me, I told him how you were doing, all right? Guess what? You're dead to me.
You're dead to me! -Yeah, but it worked, didn't it? -It worked how, huh? For the first time, you're up in front of a group of drunks, and you use your real name, not that you have to.
First time, you got up there and told 'em not only what you are, you told 'em who you are.
Yeah, you know what? Go to hell, you two-faced, Judas piece of shit! No, I ain't Judas! More like Peter the apostle, pal.
I was trying to be there for you, trying to be a foundation, a rock.
What the hell are you talking about? Did you take a drink today? I haven't had a drink in three months, asshole.
So you're feeling a little angry, huh? Yeah.
You feeling a little hurt? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You feeling betrayed? Goddamn right I am! Yeah, well, congratulations.
You're feeling.
And you're feeling because you're sober.
Because a piece of you bought into the program.
You went to meetings, and a piece of it stuck.
Now I don't give a goddamn what you do.
I don't care where you go, what you do.
I did my part, pal.
The rest is up to you.
This would've been a hell of a lot easier if you weren't here like I asked.
All right, listen.
I just wanted to tell you-- I wanted to explain to you-- There's nothing to say.
I told him to go inside and get his helmet.
Yeah, but you didn't check to make sure he did, Tommy.
You told him to do it, and then you stuck your head up your own goddamn ass, where it happily resides most of the time.
Except, of course, when you're fighting fires, and then you are the goddamn man.
Then you are the cock of the goddamn walk.
You save strangers.
You save a strange little girl on a window ledge filled with smoke and flames but you can't keep your eye on your own son while he rides his bike down the goddamn block! Jesus Christ! I'm gonna miss you.
Yeah.
Here, sweetie.
Bye.
Good-bye, Daddy.
Sweetie.
Okay, Katy, come on.
Katy.
Honey-- Katy, come on.
Let's go, honey.
Let's go.
Here you go, sweetie, huh? Thank you.
Good-bye.
Tomorrow afternoon, 5:30, Hoboken, Track 5.
I'll take care of the girls for you.
No way.
It's not gonna happen.
I'm not letting you kill anybody.
Dad, the guy's a scumbag.
He's walked before.
He'll do it again.
You're not killing him.
I am.
Shit.
I'm the boy's grandfather.
You do this, and you lose everything, Tom-- your job, your freedom, your-- your girls.
I'm an old man.
So they put me in jail for the rest of my life.
That could be two weeks for all we know.
Could be one week.
Thanks, asshole.
Look, you're not doing this, Mike.
If this is gonna go down, I'm the shooter.
- I had first dibs.
- Did you just say dibs? You're, like, what, We send you in to do the job, you fall asleep.
You wake up a half hour later.
You go to scratch your leg, and you shoot yourself right in the balls.
I killed four Germans in World War II, and one of them hand-to-hand.
And that's the four I know about.
It could be more.
Four? You know how many gooks I killed in 'Nam? Vietnam.
Vietnam can kiss my fat Irish ass.
I fought in a goddamn war we won, for Christ's sakes.
Oh, yeah? Fifty thousand of our guys dead versus two million Viet-goddamn-cong, and we lost? Not in my goddamn book! Yeah-- Hey, hey, hey! Stop it! Stop it! Knock it off! Dad, sit down! Are you taking your medication? Sit down! Sorry, Tom.
He started it.
- I don't care! - Christ! Well, you're right about what you were saying.
I-I didn't think of the girls.
Yeah.
Let me do it, Tom.
What? Look at me.
My life's a mess.
I got nothin'.
I got no wife, no house, no kids.
Everything I've ever touched in life's turned to shit.
Let me do one good thing.
Let me do it for Connor.
I don't know, Teddy.
Please, Tommy, for me.
I need this.
You can get a gun from Miami Mike? I'll call him right now.
I have to get home, Bud.
There are dishes in the sink.
I'll take care of them.
Look, if you don't like it here, you can always come home.
Just give it a try, all right? I don't like this school.
I know.
Look, babe.
I have to go, babe.
No, no, don't leave.
Sweetie, you got a nice room here, and there's plenty of nice people to talk to.
It's not right, Bud.
It's just not right.
No, it's not.
But we'll just have to do the best we can, huh? Oh! Try not to forget me, huh? Good-bye, Jerry.
So, are we gonna meet this chick or what? All in good time, boys.
All in good time.
Hey, fellas.
Glad to see you're all here.
Keep it short, Chief, all right? We got places to go and people to lay with.
- I just thought I'd come down and congratulate you.
- Why? What'd we do this time? You should be proud of yourselves.
Mission accomplished.
I'm not saying I wanted her here either, but leave it to you guys to drive her the hell out.
What are you talking about? Miles.
Laura.
She's gone.
She asked for a transfer out a week ago.
Told me not to say anything till the end of shift today.
Uh, Chief, what are you talking about? She transferred.
Where did she go? How the hell would I know? Nicely done.
Uh, Lou, you think I could, um-- Yeah, go.
I never saw it coming.
I'm not an idiot.
I was completely fooled.
How long did you know her? Uh, a little over a month.
How'd you meet her? An ad on the Internet.
An escort service.
Hell, she was a hooker.
Let's call a spade a spade.
We hit it off.
She said she wanted to quit, but couldn't afford to.
Said she could buy her way out if she had enough money to give to her pimp.
I gave her $18,000.
That's half of everything I had saved.
Did she give you a name? She had a couple-- a working name and a regular name.
She told me her name was Candy.
Who knows if that's real? Mmm.
If it makes you feel any better, you're not the first guy she's done this to.
All right.
Mm-hmm.
Track 5.
I know.
Okay.
Don't forget.
I'll, uh-- I'll pull around to the front entrance, you guys, after you do the deed, come through those doors.
I'll be right there.
Right.
All right.
Come on.
Get out.
Teddy, thanks.
Glad to do it.
Laura! Laura, open up! Laura! Can I help you? Uh, yeah.
I'm-I'm looking for Laura.
Is she here? No, she's gone.
She moved.
I'm taking over her place.
Uh, I'm sorry.
What do you mean, she's gone? Where did she go? Oh, I'm not supposed to give out that information.
Please, ma'am? I'm very close to her.
I need to know where she is.
Are you Franco? Yes.
Yes, I'm-I'm Franco.
She said you'd be here.
I'm really not supposed to tell you.
Look-- Please, ma-- Where is she? Listen, bro.
Let it go.
She's moved on.
Look-- Look, please, could I have her phone number? A forwarding address? Karma.
Yeah.
All the times you drove drunk.
I never killed anybody.
Pure blind luck.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Or maybe it was just, uh, you know, part of your old man's plan, you know? Maybe it's his goddamn master goddamn plan, okay? You know the one I'm talking about? The one where my innocent son gets killed, and the son of a bitch who did the deed gets to walk around a free man, huh? You know what that plan is, huh? You know anything about it? Huh? You want to tell me, asshole, huh? You need to hang on to some hope, Tommy.
Some faith.
I'm sorry, pal.
Hope, faith.
Tank's empty on that count.
Is this how you want to remember your only son, Tommy? With a bullet in a train station? I don't think it is.
Remember his laugh? Remember how tiny he was when he was born? Remember how he slept in the crook of your arm when you brought him home from the hospital? Remember how he loved you? Remember how he always trusted you to do right by him? Is this right, Tommy? Shit! Get the wheel Let's go for a ride If you're trouble then I'll follow you down Last night I saw the strangest light I wanna see it again I'm wide awake Somebody put a Gun in my face Go ahead, I said, Lorraine And then we're gonna Get the wheel Let's go for a ride If you're trouble then I'll follow you down, baby Last night Last night was all right I wanna see you again Go ahead I said, Lorraine And then we're gonna Get the wheel Let's go for a ride If you're trouble then I'll follow you down, baby Last night Last night was all right I wanna see you again Cloudland.
I thought the priest did a great job.
You need anything to eat, sweetheart? Did he say anything yet? Not yet.
Hey, you need anything, you just holler, all right? 'Cause we'll be right here.
Tommy, you okay in there? Jesus, I thought you fell in.
I got one of these for each of us.
This one's Coke with a shitload of bourbon in it.
It's the only thing that's gonna take the pain away.
Not a-- Not a person in here is gonna think the worse of you.
I'm so sorry, Tommy.
I'm so sorry.
Hey, is that-- Is that the probie and Garrity? God, this party is like a goddamn meat market.
You all right? Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll check with you later, all right? You sure? Okay, cheers.
I'll check with you later.
Was he wearing a helmet? I don't know.
No point in asking now.
Not gonna change anything.
You keeping an eye on him? Is he going to his meetings? Oh, yeah.
I mean, he missed a couple because of everything.
But, uh, other than using fake names and not coping with the fact that he's got a serious problem, he's doing great.
I hope to Christ he doesn't fall off the wagon.
I wouldn't blame the poor bastard if he drove the wagon right through the liquor store window and drank the entire inventory.
Hi.
- Hi.
- How you doin'? - I miss my brother.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll bet.
But you know what, Katy? You just, uh-- You just gotta remember that you're gonna see him again someday, you know, up in heaven.
You wanna help me out here? Say something.
Say something.
Say something! Um, see, Katy, um, where he is right now, there's no pain.
He's happy, and he, um, doesn't remember anything about the accident.
God makes that go away.
Is that true? That's what I heard.
Wow.
Wow.
Listen, Katy, you just-- You gotta know that Connor's fine, and he's being taken care of, and you're gonna see him again.
No, I won't.
Yes, you will, sweetie.
I promise.
No, I won't, because there's no heaven.
Of course there's a heaven, honey.
Prove it.
Um, you see, y-you just-- You have to believe.
I do believe.
I believe there's no heaven, just like there's no God.
Human beings made those things up so we could feel special.
More special than animals or bugs, because we're scared.
We need to think there's someone out there protecting us, watching over us.
We're nothing.
We come from dirt.
We go back into the dirt.
See ya.
Listen, Katy-- Can you please leave me alone now? Absolutely.
Honey, how you doin'? Not great.
I know.
If you ever want to talk-- 'Cause, you know, I know what it's like to lose someone so close.
So, I just feel like if you ever want to talk to me ever, Janet-- Thanks.
And, honey, you can't blame Tommy.
There's nothing that he could've done.
You don't know that.
Okay, but look at him.
He's hurting too.
I mean, you can't make this harder on him than it already is.
Is this any of your business? Yeah, you know what? I think it is.
Because, Janet, he needs you, and you can't turn your back on him.
Can somebody get her away from me, please? Really.
Get off me! Don't touch me! You know what? You have a good man, Janet, and you don't even know it.
You've never known it.
I'm so sorry.
I'm leaving, Tom.
I can't stay here.
Everywhere I look, it-- I'm taking the girls, and I'm going to a hotel.
On another day C'mon, c'mon With these ropes I tied can we do no wrong Now we grieve 'cause now is gone Things were good when we were young With my teeth locked down I can see the blood Of a thousand men who have come and gone Now we grieve 'cause now is gone Things were good when we were young Is it safe to say C'mon, c'mon Was it right to leave C'mon, c'mon Will I ever learn C'mon, c'mon C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon You had to be there, Lou.
It was eerie.
Yeah, spooky.
Like a horror movie where the little kid's a total freak who kills everyone in the end.
Yeah, and the way she was talking, uh, and her eyes.
She didn't blink the entire time we were with her.
She didn't.
I was watching.
You know, guys, she's a little girl.
Her brother just died.
She's dealing with it.
Oh, no.
She's dealt with it, you know? Rock solid.
You should have heard her.
No heaven, no God.
You know what? The thing is, she sounded so sure.
- Anybody seen Jerry? - Yeah.
He's at the hospital, Chief, dealing with his wife.
- What's wrong with her now? - She tried to kill herself.
I'll be doing the same if people don't start showing up for their shifts on time.
Heart of gold with a creamy center of pure shit.
But seriously, guys, this whole Katy thing is freaking me out.
I can't shake it.
- So you think there's a heaven? - Of course.
- People standing around on clouds all day? - Well, yeah.
- With wings? - We-- I don't know about wings.
That seems a little stupid.
But people standing around all day on water vapor.
That's perfectly reasonable? Look, all I'm saying is that there is a heaven, okay? I've always believed that.
What it is exactly, that's up to each individual person.
You know? Like my heaven, for example, I mean, there's clouds.
-We've established that.
-But there's a lot of downtime, you know? And you can play video games all day.
Oh, and the best part is, if you, like, want a Mountain Dew or something, you don't have to go and get it and open the can, you know? You just-- You think it, and the taste just appears in your mouth, and you're quenched.
- You know, your thirst.
-Cool.
Are you going to be able to stay at home with her? No.
I-I-I can't.
I work.
Can you afford 24-hour in-home care? I'm a New York City firefighter.
I can barely afford Then I think there's really only one option.
Which is? Moving her into a facility.
There's an excellent extended-care facility in Brookfield, Connecticut.
A friend of mine runs it.
Dr.
Philip Brockelman.
They deal almost exclusively with Alzheimer's patients.
Hold on here.
Hold on.
You're telling me that I have to put my wife of 31 years into a home? Is that what you're telling me? I think it's come to that, Mr.
Reilly.
No, I-I couldn't.
I can't.
The next time she tries to kill herself, do you think you might consider it then? I don't mean to be cold.
No.
No, you don't mean to be.
Franks and beans with a delightful green salad.
You have roughly three minutes to make disparaging comments, and then I will be back.
Enjoy.
Just glad Julia Child didn't live to see this.
You good? You need anything? All right.
Well, if you do, you get your ass downstairs and get it yourself, all right? Put in an appearance, okay? You know, I always used to think how great it would be if you would just shut the hell up and let me talk.
It ain't that great.
- Yeah? - Hi, Kenny.
It's me.
I got really good news.
Oh, that's great.
I could use some.
Shoot.
I'm out.
I'm done.
I'm free, thanks to you.
He took the money? Yes, sir.
I don't belong to F-Bomb anymore.
I don't belong to anyone.
Just you.
That's great.
We gotta celebrate.
I'm gonna go out and get the biggest, most expensive bottle of champagne I can get my fat fingers on.
You don't have any money.
It's all right.
I'll steal it.
I'll be over right after my shift.
No, no.
Wait, wait.
I can't tonight.
What do you mean? We gotta celebrate.
We will when I get back.
I gotta go to Jersey a couple of days.
My mom is sick.
My father is useless.
I know what you mean.
I gotta go cook and clean and shit.
- When are you gonna be back? - Friday.
We'll celebrate Friday night.
I can't wait.
I feel like I'm kind of getting a second chance here, you know? And thanks, babe.
For what? I'll tell you Friday.
I don't know what to do.
It's the first time in my life I feel totally lost.
When's she out of the hospital, Chief? Friday.
Little girl doctor tells me I should take her straight up to Brookfield.
Just drive up there and drop her off and drive away.
Not see her for, like, six weeks.
Jesus Christ, man.
Six weeks? Why? She says so Jeannie can readjust to her new surroundings.
As if her brain will reset if she doesn't have anything to remind her of her past life.
Whew! That's cold, Chief.
This goddamn disease, it's stealing my girl away.
Don't look at me, kid.
Paul.
Franco.
Hey.
Hey, Laura, we're packing up.
I know.
Probie lost his halligan for the second time this week.
I'm helping him find it.
Nice, Mike.
Here, I'll help you look for it.
So, you, uh-- You done any more thinking? A little.
Anything you want to share? Yeah.
I'm an idiot.
Excuse me? You know, this firefighting thing wasn't a lark.
I didn't just come up with this one day.
I saw a news show when I was, like, seven years old about a female firefighter, and I was, like, "That's it.
That's what I want to do.
" And I went and I told my father, and-- he pretty much laughed in my face.
He was, like, "You can't do that, sweetheart.
You're a girl.
" Then he got a ton of mileage out of it.
He told it at every family dinner party for years.
Then when I started telling my boyfriend, it was, "You can't do that, baby.
You're a girl.
" By the time I got to the academy, it was every guy saying, "You don't belong here, bitch.
You're a girl.
" But I had really thick skin by then, you know? And, uh, I learned how to cry when nobody was looking, and I did a ton of sit-ups.
I thought I was gonna break my back.
But I became a firefighter.
And then when I actually get assigned to a regular house and start doing the job, what would be my next course of action? I'm gonna start banging a guy in my crew.
And then I'm gonna fall in love with a guy in my crew.
You know, 'cause he's hot and sweet, and I think on some level I thought he needed me because I'm a girl.
I had to come all this way to learn that my father was right? I'm just a girl, you know? I don't have anybody to blame but myself.
Hey! I found it.
Thanks, Laura.
You're welcome.
Connor? Hello? Connor? I, uh-- My name is, uh, Tommy, and, uh, I'm an alcoholic.
- Hi, Tom.
- I'm also a, uh, fireman.
And, uh, five days ago, my only son was killed by a drunk driver, and I don't really give a shit about anything anymore.
Hey, pal.
I tried your cell.
I tried you at home.
I, uh, figured you'd be here.
I'm not here to judge you, bro.
Knock yourself out.
Janet's pretty bad.
Yeah.
Started talking crazy the other night.
She was talking about jumping out the window so she could be with Connor.
I was about to head home.
I ended up sleeping on the couch with one eye open.
You know what I mean? The girls, though, man, uh, they're tough.
They're okay.
But Janet-- Janet's gonna take a while.
We got the guy, Tommy.
We got him in Maryland.
Still driving the car.
You don't want to know that story.
I think about it, and, uh, it just makes me so angry, you know? It turns out this guy, he's had, like, five D.
U.
I.
's in the last three years.
And the thing is, he used to work at the D.
A.
's office, so he's got friends everywhere, you know? He's walked every time.
I started poking my nose around a little.
People are telling me he's gonna skate on this one.
Can you believe that? He smiled for the cameras the last time he got off.
They gave him 60 hours of community service.
They're holding him down in Baltimore.
We're sending a couple of guys down there on Friday to pick him up.
They'll be bringing him back up to Hoboken sometime early Friday night.
We're gonna book him, set bail, and after that, it's anybody's ball game.
Find out what time the train comes in on Friday.
You sure? I'm sure.
Done.
Yeah? It's me.
I cannot come over right now.
No, listen.
I'm at Debbie's.
Wah, wah, wah! Boo-hoo-hoo! You're such a drama queen.
You should get out of my apartment! I'm scared.
She's out of control, and I don't know-- Holy shit! Give me the address.
I'm a little confused right now.
I mean, well, I'm confused most of the time, but right now I'm-I'm super confused.
See, when I was little, it was simple, you know? There was heaven and there was hell.
And if you were good, you went to heaven, and if you were bad, you went the other way.
And if you were, like, an innocent child or-or a baby who choked on something, you went-- you went to limbo.
Remember limbo? Yeah.
And then you guys canceled limbo.
And now, I just-- I don't-- I got this dead kid on my hands.
And I got this live kid who-who's telling me that there is no heaven, there's only dirt, apparently, and-- I don't know.
I'm just-- I'm getting some mixed signals here.
So, I figured the best thing to do is go right to the source.
Think you could help me out here? Show me a sign? All righty then.
Holy shit.
I'm sorry.
I didn't-- Sorry.
That was-- Oh, my God! That's-- Thank you, thank you.
Thank God you're here.
Listen, I don't even know what I did.
She totally snapped.
She just went absolutely ape shit.
And now she's back there cooling off and-- Hmm.
Well, shit.
Well, look who's here.
Now it's a goddamn party.
You gotta leave her alone.
My house, my rules, prick.
Do you see what I'm talking about? Shut up! Do me a favor.
Just go upstairs for a couple minutes, okay? Yeah, and clean the bathroom while you're up there.
It's a goddamn mess! She had to call you, her knight in shining armor.
Shit.
- You gotta stop hitting her.
- Don't tell me what to do, slick.
What? You want a taste? I'm petrified.
Do it again.
One more time.
Oh, shit.
Are you okay? I'm-- I'm gonna go get a drink.
Um, your boyfriend's falling apart in there.
You might want to check it out.
We got a guy hanging out a window up on exposure "B".
The first two companies are having trouble getting to the fire floor.
Oh, yeah.
Hey, asshole, what are you doing? Put your helmet on.
Pick up your gloves.
Forget it.
Give me a size-up.
Unbelievable.
Nice to have you back, Tommy.
Nice to be back.
Thirteen.
Twelve, shithead.
Move.
Let's go, Probie, now! Nils, where's that saw? Nils, come on.
Fire up.
Let's start some venting over here, okay? We're looking for something to tie up to, okay? Stevie, I'm gonna need you set up right here.
Guys, something's going on down there.
Heads up! Heads up! -Guys, anything.
We got nothing.
What do we do? -I don't know.
Patty Brown.
Patty Brown.
Probie, get on the ground.
You guys got it.
Stevie, right here.
You ready, Spider-Man? You and me.
-Let's go.
You and me.
-On the floor, on the floor.
Tie him up, Tommy.
All right.
See you boys on the other side.
See you later.
Good luck.
Go.
Go.
Nice.
Nice.
Go.
Go.
Good boy, Franco.
Did you see that-- I can't see him.
Sir, relax.
Will you relax? We're here to help you.
No, no, no! Don't, don't, don't! - Good! Good! - Good.
Good job, Franco.
That's it.
No! Don't, don't, don't, don't! Don't, don't.
Sir-- Sir, please, please.
I'm here to help you.
It's a strong rope.
You're gonna knock me off! It's a strong rope.
I'm not gonna knock you off.
Don't touch me.
Sir, I need you to stay calm down there! It's okay.
Please, sir.
Please, just-- Don't-- Don't-- - Man over! - Get it! Damn it! Franco, are you good? Oh, Jesus! And he's in.
We got him.
We got him.
Good job, everybody.
My balls! My balls! Off! Off! Off! Battalion 15 to 62 roof.
We got another one.
Another what? Another civilian hanging out of a window.
Same side, southern exposure.
Tommy, check on that for me.
Listen, I'm gonna need a new rope up here.
- Can't help you there.
- It's a negative on the rope? We got two floors below the fire floor fully involved.
Can't get a rope to you.
You have to use the same one.
Yeah, copy that.
Pull this in.
We gotta do it again, guys.
Follow me over here.
Lou, I'll go.
No.
I'm the lightest one.
No, you're not going.
But the rope's been compromised.
I'm not sending a girl over the roof of an I'm going.
Now back off.
He's going.
We're gonna chop right here, Tommy.
I'm gonna grab my ax.
- Now, sweetheart-- - Battalion 15 to 62 roof.
What's going on, ladies? You got a sewing circle going on up there? Come on.
Talk to me.
Tommy's getting roped up.
He's getting ready to go.
Just give us a second.
Right? See ya.
Easy.
Easy.
Hey, sweetheart, come here.
Come here now.
I can't.
My mom, she's at the store.
She told me not to leave the apartment.
No, no.
Come on, sweetheart.
You can do it.
I can't.
Yeah.
Come on, darling.
Come on.
Come on.
I can't.
Out ya go.
Attagirl.
Good girl.
Okay, he's got her.
He's got her.
Here you go, sweetheart.
You're gonna go with these guys, okay? You're all right.
Good girl.
Okay.
Come on.
Good girl.
Yeah.
-Good girl.
- You okay? All right! Shit! - Aw, shit! - Oh! - He's-He's got him! He's got him! He's got him.
Oh, Davey, I'm getting too old for this kind of bullshit.
Hey, you certainly earned your money today-- all 15 cents of it.
Yes, I did.
What's going on? You want to grab a bite? No, I'd love to, but I gotta go shopping, get some new duds.
Got a big date tomorrow night.
Oh, really? Oh, yeah! Yeah.
That huge explosion you're gonna hear tomorrow night, about 8:15 or so, that's gonna be Lou getting it on.
Oh, I'll light a candle.
It's nice to hear your voice, Tom.
Thanks, pal.
Now shut up and get the hell out of here.
You get the hell out of here.
Good luck.
Hey, "T".
I cannot tell you how sorry I am to hear about your situation.
Thanks.
How you doin'? I'm doing all right, you know? Listen, why don't you take three days? Go on a little bender.
Get it out of your system.
Hmm? No, no, no.
I'm-I'm fine.
I'm-I'm-- That's not what I heard.
Listen, take the time.
I already put in for it, okay? You can thank me later.
I-I'd actually rather work, Chief.
Hello? Hey, you're not gonna believe this.
I just had a little chat with Perolli.
- I think the prick's still having me followed.
- Yeah? How do you know that? He comes up to me and says, "Hey, why don't you go on a bender for three days?" I go, "No, I'm fine.
" And then he says, uh, "That's not what I heard.
" I mean, he's gotta have somebody tailing me, right? I've been keeping an eye out.
I haven't seen any familiar faces.
Hold on there, Tommy.
I got another call.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll wait.
Tom, you there? Tommy? Tom? Son of a bitch! I knew it was you! What are you doing? I knew it was you! Get your hands off me.
You lied to me, you son of a bitch! I'm betting I punch in the number right here, and Perolli's number comes up! I don't know what you're talking about.
I told you the guy called me.
Yeah, you didn't tell me you call him, asshole! Explain yourself! What do you want me to say, huh? All right.
The guy called me.
You want me to let you go slipping and sliding away like the last time? You know he's my biggest enemy in the goddamn firehouse! You asked me to sponsor you! I'm trying to be responsible! Really? Yeah.
The guy calls me, I told him how you were doing, all right? Guess what? You're dead to me.
You're dead to me! -Yeah, but it worked, didn't it? -It worked how, huh? For the first time, you're up in front of a group of drunks, and you use your real name, not that you have to.
First time, you got up there and told 'em not only what you are, you told 'em who you are.
Yeah, you know what? Go to hell, you two-faced, Judas piece of shit! No, I ain't Judas! More like Peter the apostle, pal.
I was trying to be there for you, trying to be a foundation, a rock.
What the hell are you talking about? Did you take a drink today? I haven't had a drink in three months, asshole.
So you're feeling a little angry, huh? Yeah.
You feeling a little hurt? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You feeling betrayed? Goddamn right I am! Yeah, well, congratulations.
You're feeling.
And you're feeling because you're sober.
Because a piece of you bought into the program.
You went to meetings, and a piece of it stuck.
Now I don't give a goddamn what you do.
I don't care where you go, what you do.
I did my part, pal.
The rest is up to you.
This would've been a hell of a lot easier if you weren't here like I asked.
All right, listen.
I just wanted to tell you-- I wanted to explain to you-- There's nothing to say.
I told him to go inside and get his helmet.
Yeah, but you didn't check to make sure he did, Tommy.
You told him to do it, and then you stuck your head up your own goddamn ass, where it happily resides most of the time.
Except, of course, when you're fighting fires, and then you are the goddamn man.
Then you are the cock of the goddamn walk.
You save strangers.
You save a strange little girl on a window ledge filled with smoke and flames but you can't keep your eye on your own son while he rides his bike down the goddamn block! Jesus Christ! I'm gonna miss you.
Yeah.
Here, sweetie.
Bye.
Good-bye, Daddy.
Sweetie.
Okay, Katy, come on.
Katy.
Honey-- Katy, come on.
Let's go, honey.
Let's go.
Here you go, sweetie, huh? Thank you.
Good-bye.
Tomorrow afternoon, 5:30, Hoboken, Track 5.
I'll take care of the girls for you.
No way.
It's not gonna happen.
I'm not letting you kill anybody.
Dad, the guy's a scumbag.
He's walked before.
He'll do it again.
You're not killing him.
I am.
Shit.
I'm the boy's grandfather.
You do this, and you lose everything, Tom-- your job, your freedom, your-- your girls.
I'm an old man.
So they put me in jail for the rest of my life.
That could be two weeks for all we know.
Could be one week.
Thanks, asshole.
Look, you're not doing this, Mike.
If this is gonna go down, I'm the shooter.
- I had first dibs.
- Did you just say dibs? You're, like, what, We send you in to do the job, you fall asleep.
You wake up a half hour later.
You go to scratch your leg, and you shoot yourself right in the balls.
I killed four Germans in World War II, and one of them hand-to-hand.
And that's the four I know about.
It could be more.
Four? You know how many gooks I killed in 'Nam? Vietnam.
Vietnam can kiss my fat Irish ass.
I fought in a goddamn war we won, for Christ's sakes.
Oh, yeah? Fifty thousand of our guys dead versus two million Viet-goddamn-cong, and we lost? Not in my goddamn book! Yeah-- Hey, hey, hey! Stop it! Stop it! Knock it off! Dad, sit down! Are you taking your medication? Sit down! Sorry, Tom.
He started it.
- I don't care! - Christ! Well, you're right about what you were saying.
I-I didn't think of the girls.
Yeah.
Let me do it, Tom.
What? Look at me.
My life's a mess.
I got nothin'.
I got no wife, no house, no kids.
Everything I've ever touched in life's turned to shit.
Let me do one good thing.
Let me do it for Connor.
I don't know, Teddy.
Please, Tommy, for me.
I need this.
You can get a gun from Miami Mike? I'll call him right now.
I have to get home, Bud.
There are dishes in the sink.
I'll take care of them.
Look, if you don't like it here, you can always come home.
Just give it a try, all right? I don't like this school.
I know.
Look, babe.
I have to go, babe.
No, no, don't leave.
Sweetie, you got a nice room here, and there's plenty of nice people to talk to.
It's not right, Bud.
It's just not right.
No, it's not.
But we'll just have to do the best we can, huh? Oh! Try not to forget me, huh? Good-bye, Jerry.
So, are we gonna meet this chick or what? All in good time, boys.
All in good time.
Hey, fellas.
Glad to see you're all here.
Keep it short, Chief, all right? We got places to go and people to lay with.
- I just thought I'd come down and congratulate you.
- Why? What'd we do this time? You should be proud of yourselves.
Mission accomplished.
I'm not saying I wanted her here either, but leave it to you guys to drive her the hell out.
What are you talking about? Miles.
Laura.
She's gone.
She asked for a transfer out a week ago.
Told me not to say anything till the end of shift today.
Uh, Chief, what are you talking about? She transferred.
Where did she go? How the hell would I know? Nicely done.
Uh, Lou, you think I could, um-- Yeah, go.
I never saw it coming.
I'm not an idiot.
I was completely fooled.
How long did you know her? Uh, a little over a month.
How'd you meet her? An ad on the Internet.
An escort service.
Hell, she was a hooker.
Let's call a spade a spade.
We hit it off.
She said she wanted to quit, but couldn't afford to.
Said she could buy her way out if she had enough money to give to her pimp.
I gave her $18,000.
That's half of everything I had saved.
Did she give you a name? She had a couple-- a working name and a regular name.
She told me her name was Candy.
Who knows if that's real? Mmm.
If it makes you feel any better, you're not the first guy she's done this to.
All right.
Mm-hmm.
Track 5.
I know.
Okay.
Don't forget.
I'll, uh-- I'll pull around to the front entrance, you guys, after you do the deed, come through those doors.
I'll be right there.
Right.
All right.
Come on.
Get out.
Teddy, thanks.
Glad to do it.
Laura! Laura, open up! Laura! Can I help you? Uh, yeah.
I'm-I'm looking for Laura.
Is she here? No, she's gone.
She moved.
I'm taking over her place.
Uh, I'm sorry.
What do you mean, she's gone? Where did she go? Oh, I'm not supposed to give out that information.
Please, ma'am? I'm very close to her.
I need to know where she is.
Are you Franco? Yes.
Yes, I'm-I'm Franco.
She said you'd be here.
I'm really not supposed to tell you.
Look-- Please, ma-- Where is she? Listen, bro.
Let it go.
She's moved on.
Look-- Look, please, could I have her phone number? A forwarding address? Karma.
Yeah.
All the times you drove drunk.
I never killed anybody.
Pure blind luck.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Or maybe it was just, uh, you know, part of your old man's plan, you know? Maybe it's his goddamn master goddamn plan, okay? You know the one I'm talking about? The one where my innocent son gets killed, and the son of a bitch who did the deed gets to walk around a free man, huh? You know what that plan is, huh? You know anything about it? Huh? You want to tell me, asshole, huh? You need to hang on to some hope, Tommy.
Some faith.
I'm sorry, pal.
Hope, faith.
Tank's empty on that count.
Is this how you want to remember your only son, Tommy? With a bullet in a train station? I don't think it is.
Remember his laugh? Remember how tiny he was when he was born? Remember how he slept in the crook of your arm when you brought him home from the hospital? Remember how he loved you? Remember how he always trusted you to do right by him? Is this right, Tommy? Shit!
