:54:02
I just hope it's not that.
:54:08
I knew she fucked around.
:54:10
She did what she did,
and I did what I had to do...
:54:12
but, Jesus, Nicky was the worst thing
she could have done.
:54:18
What if he won't stop?
:54:20
It could get us both killed.
:54:22
I can back him off.
:54:27
She was
very convincing when she wanted to be.
:54:31
And this is how
she backed him off.
:54:40
Hey, Ginger.
:54:42
Don't forget,
if you're challenged...
:54:45
if he asks anything,
deny everything.
:54:48
You understand? I don't want him
bringing beefs back home.
:54:51
That could really cause
a serious problem.
:54:54
Got to be careful.
He's not dumb, you know?
:54:56
You hear what I'm saying, right?
:54:58
I know. You don't have
to tell me that.
:55:00
What? Do you think I'm stupid?
:55:03
Do I think you're stupid? No.
:55:05
I think you're beautiful.
But I gotta go.
:55:12
By this time, Nicky had things
so fucked up on the streets...
:55:14
that every time Marino went back home,
the packages got smaller and smaller.
:55:21
It got to the point,
when he walked into the place...
:55:23
he didn't know whether he was
going to be kissed or killed.
:55:26
Frankie,
I want to ask you something.
:55:29
It's private.
:55:31
But I want you
to tell me the truth.
:55:33
Of course, Remo.
:55:35
I want you to tell me
the truth, mind you.
:55:39
I always tell you
the truth, Remo.
:55:42
Frankie... the little guy...
:55:45
he wouldn't be fucking
the Jew's wife, would he?
:55:47
Because if he is,
it's a problem.
:55:53
What could I say?
:55:55
I knew if I gave
the wrong answer...
:55:57
Nicky, Ginger, Ace, all of them
could have wound up gettin' killed.
