Tell us about Robert Kelly.
Never heard of him. But I gotta tell you, you gotta feel for a guy unlucky enough to get tagged with a name like that...
You wanna know what unlucky is? How a guy can fall off his chair like the one you're sittin' in and break his neck!
You know, I suddenly remember the fellow you're talking about.
Actually it's a lucky thing we stumbled into the extortion business because the book making business was about to hit a bump.
Stop right there. What does any of this have to do with Kelly?
Oh, well, all of that started with Kevin.
Yes, Kevin Donnelly. Who are we talking about here? [gives the officer a funny look]
M Michael
[about the money Kevin owes him] You wanna know why I never went after him?
Because then me and my brothers would go after you.
M Michael
I don't loan money to nobody I can't beat up.
DD Derek 'Dokey' Farrell
[to his nephew, Matthew] Napoleon lost a whole empire in one battle because he didn't see a rainstorm coming. You always gotta look out for the thing that you don't know.
SD Sean Donnelly
[referring to The Firecracker, wanting Kevin to get to work] Come on Kevin, have a little pride. This is the family business here.
Crime is the family business Shawn, this is just a staging area.
SD Sean Donnelly
[about his new car] Hey, hey, hey. What do you think?
You pay money for this thing?
SD Sean Donnelly
Yeah, two thousand, got a great deal.
SD Sean Donnelly
Plus, he gave me a free driver's license.
We're not gonna give you a nickel! Not ever!
Wake up! Someone always gets paid. From now on, it's gonna be me.
You extorting money from Jenny? From her Father?
It's business, Tommy. It's the habit.
[narrating] Jimmy loved Tommy more than anybody. But see, once you've been betrayed by somebody you love... you're capable of anything.
DD Derek 'Dokey' Farrell
How old are you, Reilly?
JS Jenny's Pop
What's my age have to do with anything?
DD Derek 'Dokey' Farrell
'Cause you're way too old to be playing the hero.
[narrating] See, Tommy Donnelly's dream was to pursue all that art crap. Now, it's a little gay for me, but for Tommy, it was the only thing other than Jenny Reilly that he ever really wanted. And he decided to go for it, once and for all.
Okay, we got a problem. [he shows Jimmy Louie's cell phone]
Louie Downtown's cell phone.
The one you were supposed to throw away!
Yeah, but that's not the problem.
[cut to Jimmy smashing the phone on the counter] That's how you're supposed to get rid of a cell phone, Kevin!
I guess I should've done that.
W Whitey
[about Nicky] He's playing games with us.
Or he wants to make a deal with us.
W Whitey
What kind of deal?
I don't know. But If someone stole my business I'd wanna kill them, unless I thought they could make me money.
DD Derek 'Dokey' Farrell
Jack, you talk to me like I'm some street punk again and I'm gonna cut your tongue out.
[narrating] Now, for some people, losing a dream can make you dangerous, 'cause they don't think long term. They just want what they want, when they want it.
