:17:00
He doesn't want anyone to think he's bald,
so he wears a fucking cap.
:17:06
Karen! Karen, hey!
Say hello to Chili Palmer.
:17:10
Chili, this is Karen Flores.
:17:12
Pleasure to meet you.
:17:14
How d'you get in?
:17:15
He has an idea for a movie,
it's not bad so far. Have a drink.
:17:20
Tell Karen.
:17:22
Maybe you didn't hear me.
:17:24
I came in the back door.
:17:27
You broke in?
:17:27
It was open. It wasn't locked.
:17:30
What if it were?
:17:32
Listen to the idea. A dry-cleaner
scams an airline out of 300 grand.
:17:38
This guy owes a shylock $1 5,000.
:17:41
He's three weeks over on the vig.
That's the interest.
:17:44
I know what vig is.
:17:46
Anyway, this dry-cleaner -
let's call him Leo - he's scared.
:17:50
He leaves town. Leo's on a plane
but it just sits there.
:17:55
They announce over the PA
there's a mechanical problem.
:17:58
It'll take an hour
but they're to stay seated.
:18:02
The guy's nervous
so he gets off the plane,
:18:06
goes into the cocktail lounge
and starts throwing them down.
:18:10
He's still in the lounge
when the plane crashes on takeoff.
:18:18
So when the guy finds out,
he can't believe it.
:18:20
If he'd stayed on the plane,
he'd be dead.
:18:24
If everybody thinks he's dead,
he won't have to pay the 1 5 or the vig.
:18:30
Keep going.
:18:31
Leo's wife is brought to the airport
:18:34
to get any personal effects
that weren't destroyed.
:18:37
Leo's bags were on the plane,
so the wife tells 'em what to look for.
:18:44
Ah!
:18:50
Oh, my Leo! My Leo!
:18:55
Later, the airline people visit his wife
:18:57
and offer her a settlement,
:18:59
based on what he would've earned
from the dry-cleaner's the rest of his life.
