Meet me downstairs.
Alone.
That about your money? Your money come through? Looks like.

Did you get my text? I told you, don't bother me at work.
I'm lonely.
Then get a cat.
What do you got? I found him, Ray.
I set up a meet with him.
Don't know if he'll go for it.
He'll do it if the price is right.
How's Boston? I'm freezing my balls off.
Thought the Lebanese cut 'em off when they had you in prison.
They grew back, Ray.
I got another call.
Ezra? You need to get over here, Raymond.
We have a problem.
A big problem.
I'm doing something with Bunch.
What's going on? Feh! You know the rules.
We don't discuss business on the phone.
Okay, from the waist, all right? Ow! Still hurting? Yeah, a little.
Still hurting.
He's tough.
He can handle a beating.
Just shut your mouth.
But throw some punches, son.
Let a few go, see how you feel.
Double.
Cross.
Your mother hits harder than that.
Double.
How is your mother, by the way? She's all right.
Yeah.
Double.
Sweet Claudette.
I miss her.
I could cry thinking about that sweet black ass of hers.
Cross.
All right.
Can't punch, can't move, can't think.
Triple threat.
Don't let him hear you.
And again.
Double hook.
Double hook.
Come on.
Breathe! Breathe.
On the balls of your feet.
Find your distance.
There.
One-two.
I told you to meet me outside.
All right, bite down on that pain.
Okay.
Let's see some real work in there.
Come on.
Let's go.
I don't know, Ray.
Come on, Bunch.
We talked about this.
Come on! Show me something! You know, you're a Donovan.
Come on.
Throw some real punches! Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba! Come on! Boom, boom! Let's go! Hey, lighten up! My boys don't lighten up.
You don't know fuck about your boys.
A Donovan goes down, he comes back harder.
Now, put some steam in those punches.
Come on! Let's go! Fuck! Hey! Back the fuck off! Ah, fuck! Fuck you! Fucking arm froze up! God.
Come on, take this fucking thing off.
I'm all right! I'm calling that nurse.
You're not calling anybody.
The fuck is wrong with you? There's nothing wrong with him.
Did what he's supposed to do.
He's a boxer.
Hi.
Hi there.
Um, I want to make a donation.
Oh, that's wonderful.
Are you a member of St.
Vincent's? No.
I don't go to church.
I I mean, I should.
I-I've been thinking about it lately, but I go to yoga.
Wow.
These look expensive.
And practically new.
Armani? Zegna? Father, you know Zegna? Well I do know they're worth a lot of money.
Are you sure you want to donate these? Yeah, I do.
Thank you.
Thank you.
You picked him up at Walpole? Yeah.
Drove him over to St.
Mary's.
He didn't say a word the entire way.
He'd just, you know, look out the window.
He went inside? Yeah, he was in there-- I don't know-- five minutes, tops.
Come out.
I drove him over to a motel on Western Avenue.
You know he killed a priest.
Did you talk to the police? What the fuck business do I got talking to the cops about anything? I could make it your business.
Nah.
They might think that I knew what he was planning to do.
That-that would make me an accomplice.
Why should I take that kind of risk? You know, you talk funny.
Where were you born? You don't want to know.
Better? It's okay.
The drugs will kick in any sec.
Did I do this to you? That's all I want to know.
That last fight in Worcester-- pretty rough, you took a lot of punches.
Did I keep you in the game too long? 'Cause if I did, give me a gun.
Blow my brains out right now.
It's all right, Mick.
I don't know.
Maybe I did this.
No one knows what causes it.
There's lots of factors.
Oh, all right, good.
Makes jerking off easier, right? Can we have a minute alone? Sure.
I don't want to be a third wheel.
Is he for real? He's all right.
How's that? Is that better? I'm sorry about the mess.
Oh.
I've seen worse.
Yeah? Sure.
You know, I used to be a hooker before I was a nurse.
I'm kidding.
Someone's got to mean a lot, I guess, if you're gonna wear her name on your body forever.
Unless you were drunk when you got it.
I wasn't drunk.
I'm feeling better.
What do I owe you? Oh, nothing.
Your brother took care of it.
I'm not a charity case.
You're done here, right? Yeah.
I'm done.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'll see you then.
He okay? He's hurting, but it'll ease up.
Your brother's a stubborn bastard.
He's a good guy, though.
The best.
Thanks for the cash.
I can use it.
No problem.
I moved the lawyer to this afternoon.
Why don't you come with me? We can hang out till the appointment.
It's dirty money, Ray, you know? The church is going broke with all these lawsuits.
Who put that crap in your head? Ray Ray.
You hear this one? There's the there's the half nelson.
See? Like that.
There's the full nelson.
And there's the Father Nelson.
You think that's funny? You take life too fucking serious, Ray.
Smile and the world smiles with you.
Cry and you cry alone.
Speaking of priests you killed the wrong one, Mick.
What are you talking about? The priest that molested Bunchy? They moved him out of that parish ten years ago.
You killed his brother, you moron.
So what? He didn't fuck my boy, he fucked someone else's.
Let's go.
Look I- I got my SNAP meeting.
Dad's coming with me.
You know how many times I asked you to come with me, Ray? I got to support my kid.
That's what fathers are for.
It's a groundbreaking celebration! I want little shovels! Is that too much to ask? Raymond, shut the door.
What's going on, Ezra? The golem's arrived.
Uh-huh.
Listen, Ezra I think we should make an appointment with a doctor.
Are you sick? Your father called three times.
You didn't talk to him, did you? Do you think I'm crazy? I thought we took care of him.
All right.
Calm down.
I am taking care of it.
How? Better if you don't know.
Take it out.
I'm gonna give you the best hand job of your life.
You know how long I've been trying to sign this guy? Who? Re-Kon! Four DUIs last year.
Two months ago, he tried to go through L.
A.
X.
with an Uzi.
An Uzi.
Three record companies are suing him.
The hours we can bill! And his little protégé? Gonna be the black Justin Bieber.
Word.
Oh, one problem.
We got to get total control, all parental rights.
So, Ray, you got to buy the kid.
We're buying kids now, Lee? We've done worse.
This is my legacy, Raymond.
My tribute to Ruth.
Your father's going to ruin it.
I became withdrawn.
I quit all my sports.
I was a, uh, 12-year-old with post-traumatic stress and they just didn't notice? Bullshit.
They noticed.
They were just too damn afraid to do anything about it.
Afraid of the priest, afraid of their beloved holy Catholic Church, afraid of the fucking Pope.
So they just let it happen.
They just fucking let it happen.
I'm sorry.
Wow.
God bless you.
You was all abused? All of you? Ain't that something, huh? We got to lighten things up around here.
Come on.
Bunch of sad sacks.
Okay.
Here's one for you.
Guy comes home from work and finds that his girlfriend is packing to leave.
She's upset about something.
And he says, uh, "Honey, what's wrong?" And she says, "Today I found out you're a pedophile.
" He says, "Pedophile? Whoa, that's a big word for an eight-year-old.
" Yeah, you get it.
Yeah.
Well who's next? Yo.
Where you headed? Compton.
What's in Compton? Someone's mother.
Hey, Lena, you know that, uh, rapper, my neighbor? I want you to check him out.
Yeah.
Re-Kon.
See if he's ever had sex with a minor.
Hurt a kid, anything like that.
You hear from Avi? Yeah, he says the guy's playing games, but he'll probably do it for more money.
Tell him to do whatever it takes.
I got another call.
Yeah, Terry, what's up? How's the arm? The arm's fine.
I'm gonna pay you back.
For what? That nurse, the medicine.
Christ, Ter, you want to pay me back? Call her.
She likes you.
Is there anger inside? Disappointment? Inhale deeply.
Gather that anger, and when you exhale, just let it go.
Very good, very good.
Surrender to the ground.
Inhale again.
Gather that anger.
And when you exhale, just let it go.
Very good.
Let it go.
Let it go, Abby.
Let it go.
Send those negative thoughts to the universe.
Don't forget to exhale.
Breathe.
Good.

This is great, Ezra.
A real tribute to Ruth.
I'm literally moved to tears.
Ray, Hanukah with the crack mom? Are we gonna make my new homey client happy? Why don't you go get a drink, Lee? I meant what I said, Ezra.
You can trust me.

You showed up.
Did I have any choice? A fucking limo? Driver? Don't start.
Come on.
You look nice.
Thank you.
Welcome! Welcome.
Tonight is a blessing.
Next week, we break ground for the Ruth Goldman Ovarian Cancer Center.
Paying tribute to Ruth.
She was a wonderful woman.
Yeah, wonderful.
I often felt that she was an angel.
Angel? Do you want to know about Ruth? She was so giving, so generous.
Ruth the saint, Ruth the holy.
Deb, hi.
She loved everyone.
Let's get some air.
She was no angel, believe me.
She was sleeping with her shrink for years.
There was nothing she wouldn't do for anyone.
Years! I see this center as my legacy.
Ruth would want that.
A legacy is important.
Especially when you've done terrible things.
Not to be spoken of.
There's a price to pay for the wrong that we do.
A terrible price.
