:56:01
No, I can't.
I-- Listen, I never told you this,
:56:04
but I got a-- a slight
heart murmur...
:56:07
and right now
it's murmuring "hide."
:56:09
- I don't believe you're a coward.
:56:11
Only in actuality.
Um, this is not for me.
:56:14
- Lenny, I need your help.
- No, I'm not a violence person.
:56:17
I-I write about hockey and boxing
and football. This is not my world.
:56:21
Lenny, I do want to quit like you said,
but he said he's not gonna let me!
:56:24
- He's gonna hurt us both. Please!
- Relax, relax.
:56:27
What do you want me to do?
How am I gonna talk to him?
:56:30
- Well, okay. You just--
- I--
:56:32
You just talk because you're smarter
than he is and stronger than he is.
:56:35
You're a much better man. So just
remember that when you talk to him.
:56:38
He's a little bit intimidating.
He's got a bald head and an earring.
:56:42
- But you'll win. I know you will.
- Jesus, I-- I--
:56:45
You're a good man, Lenny.
You'll win.
:56:47
Look, in case anything
comes up,
:56:49
I want you to know that I-l'm
type O-positive, okay?
:56:53
Derek, I got the feeling you
came here and obviously moved...
:56:56
into this whole Knick persona.
:56:58
- Did you get caught up, maybe,
with a little bit of this Knick,
- Excuse me.
:57:01
"I gotta be physical,
I gotta be tough," and maybe--
:57:03
I'm, uh, I'm
Lenny Gildersleeve.
:57:05
I-- I'm a friend
of Linda-- Linda Ash's.
:57:09
And, uh, I thought
that perhaps we could--
:57:12
See--
:57:14
What I want to discuss
with you is that...
:57:17
there comes a time in the life
of every young woman,
:57:20
not just Linda, but everyone,
:57:22
that they-- they want to perhaps
make a change in their life.
:57:26
They maybe want to settle down
or explore alternative lifestyles.
:57:29
I don't think you've been a very good
influence on Linda, Mr. Weinrib.
:57:33
Weinrib. Right. So Gildersleeve
is a name I use for business purposes.
:57:37
- I got an investment in Linda.
- No question.
:57:40
I honor that. But--
But by now, she's probably...
:57:43
repaid you tenfold
or twentyfold or--
:57:45
Don't be so fuckin' sure, 'cause you
don't know what the fuckin' numbers are!
:57:48
That's a point well taken.
Excuse me, you're-- you're-- Excuse me.
:57:51
I-I-I understand what you're saying.
Is that a Pellegrino?
:57:54
Can I-- Because you've
bent my throat now a little bit.
:57:57
And, uh, the windpipe used to
hang straight until this moment.
