It's a beautiful idea.
And then what do they get? Bling? And come-ons for shit they don't need and can't afford? You're all over the place.

Julius, I'm not a hard man.
I'm not a mean man Tell you right now, it's light.
But the television industry today is looking for talent.
They're looking for quality.
They're preoccupied with talent and quality, And a writer is a major commodity.

My daughter Narrator on tv: Scratching plaintively on a closed door.
Mr.
Julius moomer, a would-be writer Yesterday it was his gout.
Woman: this is New York's famous little Italy.
It once covered over 40 square blocks But has now been reduced to one row of shops and cafes.
( man singing italian aria ) ( phone rings ) Hello.
Phil: it's me.
Where are you? Are you close? Let's do it over the phone.
( italian pop song playing ) No word yet.
No one knows where our friend is.
It's not that there's no word, it's that there's no progress.
Nobody's taking this lightly, Phil.
He should have been done first.
They thought they'd find them both at the strip joint.
I've heard this already.
I know you're disappointed, Phil.
I can hear it in everything you say.
Fuckin'-a I'm disappointed.
- ( man singing italian aria ) - I'm thinking.
- vendor: come on in, check it out.
- I don't know.
- maybe - what? Are you talking about reaching out? We can't go back.
Are you out of your fucking mi? - no, I know.
- then what did you say it for? I didn't, Phil.
You did.
Listen, kid, When this is over we're gonna sit down, - me and you.

You're breaking up.
I said I hope-- - ( people speaking chinese ) - ( wind whistling ) ( sighs ) "ferrara's.
" ( groans ) - want a pastry? - I need to watch my weight.
I need to snag another husband.
( chuckles ) You're the only one who realized that's a joke.
You had to grow up in our family.
That dig you made about me giving guys head under the boardwalk? He took it so seriously, Bobby.
( chuckles ) Anyway, Thank you for being here.
So what happens now? Well, robert's already said he wants to go live with his aunt.
- what about sophia? - nica is my daughter.
She's very much into her older sister.
Sophia's out of her mind if she thinks she's getting out of this house.
Is that a joke? 'cause that one even got by me.
You know, five, six years ago When johnny sack bought this house, This was all cornfields here.
I'd like to give it a shot with Bobby's kids.
Bobby would want it.
I put in a lot of effort with sophia-- Baking together I think we actually have a bond.
I've had therapy.
I'm a good mother.
I put ma and all her warped shit behind me.
Good.
Not that I get any thanks for it.
You know you could form a new nuclear family.
You bring harpo down here It's a big place.
Harpo changed his name.
He's hal now.
( sighs ) Janice Well, you need anything, you know I'm minutes away.
( phone ringing ) - yeah.
- harris: multiple calls Traced back to a payphone in oyster bay, long island.
What? Oh.
Oh, uh - where's the phone at exactly? - gas station, most likely.
- gas station? - he's lammed out.
He may not be able to put his hands on a clean cell phone.
All right, listen, thanks.
Really-- All right.
( zips ) ( folk rock playing ) You kept telling me this guy is good.
It's amazing it was written so long ago.
It's, like, about right now.
( music continues ) This could be a mistake.
I know.
We're good friends.
Yeah.
- oh, wait.
- ( chuckles ) Holy shit.
Oh my god.
Go! ( song continues ) Oh, christ.
I parked in leaves! ( song distorts, stops ) Wow.
At least my gas tank was practically empty.
How many fucking times have I told you: It's an S.
U.
V.
, watch where you park off-road? The catalytic converter and the dry vegetation! I didn't see the leaves.
You can grill fucking steaks on that converter! I told you! If there was children playing in those leaves, - you'd have run them over? - I guess.
Oh, you're gonna get cute now? - I was just answering her question.
- dad, he wasn't being funny.
You mind your own goddamn business unless you want some of this too.
- mr.
Fat mouth.
- Tony: what did you say? - what was going through your mind? - ( door opens and closes ) What do you want from me? I am depressed.
I'm supposed to go around looking for piles of leaves? Wanna hear depressed? $30,000 for that car.
Isn't that what you have insurance for? Excuse me? You're not getting another one.
Actually, that's good.
It'll force me to take the bus.
What? We have to break our dependence on foreign oil.
( line ringing ) ( receiver clicks ) - cafe Napoli.
- George, it's Anthony.
George: your fucking ears must be ringing.
I just left your friend, the son, crying the blues Over the situation between you and that outfit over there.
Tony: that's why I'm calling.
I need you to reach out to the little guy.
George: he's not happy with Phil neither.
Tony: I know.
You're not part of that family.
You're basically retired.
Everybody trusts you.
What I'm thinking, you'd supply a neutral location, Guarantee everybody's safety.
George: I could do that.
( chain rattling ) - hi, George.
- hey.
They're here.
They've been patted down too.
Anybody want a water? - no.
- no.
Butch: we started it? We got a dead goomar In queens and her old ukrainian father.
Tony: and I'm not even gonna blame Phil.
John sacramoni, my friend, I'm sorry to say, was an insecure guy.
He created a constant tension Within his own family which spilled over.
Go ahead, Carmine.
George was good enough To broker this meeting for us.
You're just gonna sit there? It didn't have to be this way.
We agree.
It's gone too far.
Phil, I don't know-- he's changed.
You got my word: we'll back off.
My price is you help us get a location on Phil.
Uh, I can't go there.
But you do what you gotta do.
One more thing: you hit my brother-in-law.
- so? - this is my sister We're talking about.
She's gotta see something out of this.
We'll come up with a number.
Look at all this mail.
( '60s song playing ) Anybody need some barber's scissors? - ton'? - put some next to my coat.
( mews ) He was at the safe house.
We brought him over.
Get him the fuck out.
These are snakes with fur.
The old italians will tell you-- You can't even put them around a baby.
They suck the breath right out.
Well, you're the only baby here, so we're ahead of the game.
You wanna be wearing his fucking pelt on your head? - I said get rid of him.
- Tony: leave him.
He's a good guy.
( door opens, closes ) No payphone.
( nica babbling ) Tv host: Daughter gloria on the tv series Look, there's a double-breasted robin.

Bobby's dead.
The ambassador hotel.
Your Bobby, Bobby baccalieri.
I'm a widow now.
( distant dance music playing ) She was inveigling him.
She's after his money.
You're not even curious about him? He can fucking rot.
When you were an inpatient, You said you might try and get a job.
I can't now because of the car.
I need to get a bus schedule.
The thing is, Ever since it blew up I feel, like Cleansed or something.
Because It was a polluter? No.
I mean, just watching it go, That huge fireball-- You have no idea.
The heat-- My seat melted.
I had been in it just a few seconds before.
Carlo.
Carlo.
( rings melodically ) Yeah.
T, I had a meeting down here with Carlo this morning.
We were supposed to go see butch and them on a couple of items.
Carlo didn't show.
And he don't answer his phones neither.
I'll call you back on the prepay.
( phone rings ) Yeah.

How are you, mrs.
Soprano? Oh my god, when was it? It was right around when you quit college.
You're being kind.
I was kicked out for partying and drunk driving.
Well, I didn't want to say, but Well, that was always you.
So what are you up to now? I'm in my second year of med school.
- oh.
- yeah.
I completed undergrad at purchase, Got my act together.
Yes.
They're gonna be here, Meadow.
A man took his horse to a vet And the vet says to him, "why do you have a long face?" "a horse goes.
" there's no man.
Right right.
A horse goes to a vet.
And the vet looks at his face and he says to him, - "my friend--" - a horse goes to the doctor.
The doctor says, "why the long face?" Can't tell jokes.
- more pinot grig', Patrick? - no, thanks.
Speaking of jokers, where's that other son of yours today? I didn't think he was invited.
I just thought with all the wedding talk, you know No no, really, that pal of his, the other Jason-- I heard he ran into some trouble, - Carlo's Jason.
- he's a mess.
All right.
Well, he's got no shortage of lawyers here.
( all laugh ) Ton', patsy needs a refill.
- no, ton', I'll-- - sit down.
Of course, this one here would only take the case for free.
That's why we want her over at Grubman, Grubman & Curcio.
Actually, Mead' and I have had some conversations And we may still snag her over at the firm - when she's done with law school.
- no kidding? We went out to dinner with steven grubman and the subject came up.
Steven was very impressed with her work at the poverty law center.
He even got into starting salaries.
He was talking $170.
Jesus.
Sweetheart, that's fantastic, huh? He had had too much gevrey.
Don't devalue yourself.
We've got a really interesting case right now.
We're defending James Trefoglio, The county commissioner, on those corruption charges.
Is that your case, honey? Bid rigging.
It's got bagmen, whores.
It's fascinating.
- ( rock music playing ) - ( growling ) ( chuckles ) yeah, he does that, Sometimes most of the day-- just stares at chrissy's picture.
The fuck? You know, they're funny that way.
I had an aunt, her cat would only sit At the exact corners of the table, staring at her, Or at the intersection of two walls, staring in.
This fucking animal is history, today! - pick him up.
- you pick him up.
( door opens ) T, you see this shit? Does it all the time, he says.
- oh yeah? - look at him staring at that dead kid.
Gives me the fucking creeps.
Walden, give us some privacy.
Yeah.
Walden-- the fuck kind of name is that for an italian? I was named after mr.
Bobby Darin-- Walden Robert Cassotto.
Heh.
( door opens and closes ) The Cifaretto crew-- it's a fucking chinese fire drill over there, Especially now that Carlo is absent.
I know.
I want you to skipper that thing.
- really? - fucking thing is one big ATM machine.
All our construction with New York folds right into your kick.
Yeah.
Jesus christ, I thought you'd be pleased.
I didn't hand you the diagnosis of the clap.
With due respect, I'd like to just mull it a little.
I'm no spring chicken no more.
I don't want to have me dying on you, leaving you worse off than before.
Oh, you with the dead thing.
You got the arms and upper body of a 20-year-old.
I gotta work at that.
And I had the prostate.
All right, sure.
Go ahead.
I'm a little miffled, but yeah, sit with it.
Thanks, T.
This means everything, Your faith in me.
In the line of duty.
But we're short-handed.
Anyway, mid-60s, Probably used the payphones.
We don't have payphones.
Just a couple of stations have them anymore.
( window rolls down ) ( hums sports theme ) Get in.
( hums the tune ) Activity-- that's good.
I can already see a difference.
Yeah.
Gonna get back at it myself.
Listen I'm gonna join the army.
What? Did you sign any shit? No, but this week I will.
I gotta deal with rhiannon first.
Rhiannon? What about your mother? - her too.
- are you nuts? You wanna get sent to Iraq? Afghanistan.
The army's probably good for my career.
You don't have a career.
Right.
My ultimate goal is to qualify for helicopter pilot training, Afterwards go to work for trump or somebody, Be their personal pilot.
( stammers ) I'm not even gonna tell your mother about this.
And don't you do nothing Until we've had another chance to talk.
- you hear me? - yes.
He's gonna join the fucking army.
I gotta be frank, You people got him out of his room-- great-- So he can be cannon fodder? I wasn't aware of this latest plan.
( door opens ) Sorry.
I should have gone before we left the house.
Still on the army thing.
On the other hand, I'm thinking maybe he could benefit From the training, the discipline.
Maybe the army'd be great for him If there wasn't a war going on.
Oh, I didn't tell you, he spent $200 On a set of cds that teach arabic.
Jesus Christ, come on.
"shish kebab"-- what else do you need to know? He used to just veg in front of that tv.
He says he wants to get past the hate, Focus it only on the terrorists.
I really can't reveal much more.
Right.
Even though we're paying.
This whole therapy thing, I gotta tell you-- What? My mother was a borderline personality.
So what? - I don't know if you knew that.
- no.
Well, I did not have a very happy childhood.
No? There was little love in the house.
He's mentioned your mother very briefly.
A very difficult woman, Undermining.
I tried to place her in a retirement community For her own good-- She turned on me completely.
You see, I never could please my ther.
To what do I owe this chance to go sake bombing? We used to have dinner all the time.
You're gonna get married and my chances are flying by me.
- yeah.
- so, your brother, Our little soldier boy-- What do you think is wrong with that googootz? The world is a sad, fucked-up place.
If there's so much suffering in the world, - why did you go off the pediatrician bit? - we talked about that.
You said you wanted to be a lawyer for black people.
Oh, that's all I said? Really? What I said was: the state can crush the individual.
- New Jersey? - the government.
Specifically, the federal government.
And what about little babies In the face of meningitis? You know what really turned me? Seeing the way italians are treated.
It's like mom says.
And if we can have our rights trampled like that, Imagine what it's like for recent arrivals.
- well - if I hadn't seen you Dragged away all those times by the fbi Then I'd probably be a boring suburban doctor.
( rock song playing ) Bye-bye.
Wave "bye-bye, grandpa.
" - bye-bye, pop-pop.
- say "bye-bye.
" - bye-bye.
- bye-bye.
( cooing ) I gotta make a phone call.
I'll meet you at the drugstore.
Tell the goddamn pharmacist to call dr.
Iaconis.
I should get a 60-day supply of the plavix.
Phil! Phil! Oh my god! Phil! Oh my god! Help! Help me! Oh my god! Oh my god! My babies! Somebody help! Help me! The babies! - somebody help me! - okay, okay.
Help me, please! Oh, god, they're locked in there! - ( head squishes, pops ) - ( Patty wails ) - oh! - oh shit! ( retches ) ( speaking arabic ) - seen metro news? - no.
Your old beat.
Phil Leotardo got popped.
Damn.
We're gonna win this thing.
Okay As your parents we don't feel Joining the army is in your best interest.
This country is in a crisis.
How can one soldier stop it? When my enlistment's up, I could join the CIA or something.
And with a military background I'll have a leg up.
And as an arabic speaker, I'll be really useful.
I don't understand.
You're gonna ask the donald For some time off from your pilot job to go on CIA missions? - everything's a joke to you.
- I'm not having a good time.
Did you or did you not want me to go to military school? But I started to cry.
At least you'd have come out an officer.
Even then I was opposed to it.
I hate this idea.
I'm applying for officer's candidate school.
I want to be a liaison officer With the local population anyway.
Officer's candidate school? You have terrible grades.
You flunked out of college.
Here we go.
That's all this is about, right? No, Anthony, that's not what this is all about.
You don't want to go to college-- don't go to college, - but don't get your legs blown off.
- always with the drama.
So what does your girlfriend say, the fashion model? She doesn't think I should go either.
Well? Not that long ago you talked about owning a club.
Right.
You had a problem with that too.
A lot of your friends are in film school, you say, Especially the ones you used to go to the clubs with.
Uh So I got this screenplay from danny baldwin.
We met at your cousin's movie.
Danny hoped I'd set him up with some financing, - but I never read it.
- well, you did now.
Yeah, I did now and Well, long story short, it's about a private detective That gets sucked into the internet through his, uh, data port.
And he's gotta solve Some murders and some virtual prostitutes.
I read it.
It's scary.
Point is, I talked to little Carmine And he's interested in developing it through his company.
He does porn.
He did "cleaver.
" he's branching out.
Carmela: you would work for his producer, inge.
You would be-- what is the word-- Development executive on this project.
Really? What's this gotta do with clubs? Hollywood and gossip columns, the nightspots And you get some real-world experience under your belt, You come see me and we will talk About me investing in a club.
Run that past rahoony, see what she says.
( dance music playing ) Somebody's giving grand jury testimony on something.
- so Carlo has flipped.
- we don't know.
And subpoenas are flying.
My hunch-- 80 to 90% chance you'll be indicted.
That fucking gun charge-- I get sick when I think of it-- Plus interstate fraud and if Carlo starts talking, homicide-- Give me the fucking thing.
Not like we haven't envisioned this day.
No no, it's not.
Look, trials are there to be won.

Doesn't mean it's not part of an overall pattern.
Paulie, are you gonna deny yourself life-changing money, A package to leave your niece who has m.
S.
? It's like your bullshit with the cat.
The fucking animal catches mice for us, - but you'd drown it.

He's not looking at christopher.
A rat died in the wall back there or some shit.
I moved the picture.
The fucking thing Came to the new spot and stared! It's the abstract shapes or something.
Tell you this: Since he's dead, My gambling luck's done a 180.
Oh, okay.
It's fine for you to believe that shit, But I can't worry about a jinx? Ton', I never told this to another living soul, but Yeah? One time at the bing, I was alone to meet eddy lind-- I saw the virgin mary.
Why didn't you say something? Fuck strippers, we coulda had a shrine, Sold holy water in gallon jugs.
Coulda made billions.
I tell you something deep in my heart and you laugh it off? I'm not saying there's nothing out there, Paulie, But to not live your life? What the fuck are you gonna do? You don't want the job-- you don't want the job.
I can put patsy in there.
He's gonna be part of my family now.
It'd be good.

It's a beautiful idea.

( man singing italian aria ) ( phone rings ) Hello.
Phil: it's me.
Where are you? Are you close? Let's do it over the phone.
( italian pop song playing ) No word yet.
No one knows where our friend is.
It's not that there's no word, it's that there's no progress.
Nobody's taking this lightly, Phil.
He should have been done first.
They thought they'd find them both at the strip joint.
I've heard this already.
I know you're disappointed, Phil.
I can hear it in everything you say.
Fuckin'-a I'm disappointed.
- ( man singing italian aria ) - I'm thinking.

( chuckles ) Anyway, Thank you for being here.
So what happens now? Well, robert's already said he wants to go live with his aunt.
- what about sophia? - nica is my daughter.
She's very much into her older sister.
Sophia's out of her mind if she thinks she's getting out of this house.
Is that a joke? 'cause that one even got by me.
You know, five, six years ago When johnny sack bought this house, This was all cornfields here.
I'd like to give it a shot with Bobby's kids.
Bobby would want it.
I put in a lot of effort with sophia-- Baking together I think we actually have a bond.
I've had therapy.
I'm a good mother.
I put ma and all her warped shit behind me.
Good.
Not that I get any thanks for it.
You know you could form a new nuclear family.

U.
V.

You can grill fucking steaks on that converter! I told you! If there was children playing in those leaves, - you'd have run them over? - I guess.
Oh, you're gonna get cute now? - I was just answering her question.

You mind your own goddamn business unless you want some of this too.
- mr.
Fat mouth.
- Tony: what did you say? - what was going through your mind? - ( door opens and closes ) What do you want from me? I am depressed.
I'm supposed to go around looking for piles of leaves? Wanna hear depressed? $30,000 for that car.
Isn't that what you have insurance for? Excuse me? You're not getting another one.
Actually, that's good.
It'll force me to take the bus.
What? We have to break our dependence on foreign oil.
( line ringing ) ( receiver clicks ) - cafe Napoli.
- George, it's Anthony.
George: your fucking ears must be ringing.
I just left your friend, the son, crying the blues Over the situation between you and that outfit over there.
Tony: that's why I'm calling.
I need you to reach out to the little guy.
George: he's not happy with Phil neither.
Tony: I know.
You're not part of that family.
You're basically retired.
Everybody trusts you.
What I'm thinking, you'd supply a neutral location, Guarantee everybody's safety.
George: I could do that.
( chain rattling ) - hi, George.
- hey.
They're here.
They've been patted down too.
Anybody want a water? - no.
- no.
Butch: we started it? We got a dead goomar In queens and her old ukrainian father.
Tony: and I'm not even gonna blame Phil.
John sacramoni, my friend, I'm sorry to say, was an insecure guy.
He created a constant tension Within his own family which spilled over.
Go ahead, Carmine.
George was good enough To broker this meeting for us.
You're just gonna sit there? It didn't have to be this way.
We agree.
It's gone too far.
Phil, I don't know-- he's changed.
You got my word: we'll back off.
My price is you help us get a location on Phil.
Uh, I can't go there.
But you do what you gotta do.
One more thing: you hit my brother-in-law.
- so? - this is my sister We're talking about.
She's gotta see something out of this.
We'll come up with a number.
Look at all this mail.
( '60s song playing ) Anybody need some barber's scissors? - ton'? - put some next to my coat.
( mews ) He was at the safe house.
We brought him over.
Get him the fuck out.
These are snakes with fur.
The old italians will tell you-- You can't even put them around a baby.
They suck the breath right out.
Well, you're the only baby here, so we're ahead of the game.
You wanna be wearing his fucking pelt on your head? - I said get rid of him.
- Tony: leave him.
He's a good guy.
( door opens, closes ) No payphone.

The ambassador hotel.
Your Bobby, Bobby baccalieri.

( distant dance music playing ) She was inveigling him.
She's after his money.
You're not even curious about him? He can fucking rot.
When you were an inpatient, You said you might try and get a job.
I can't now because of the car.
I need to get a bus schedule.
The thing is, Ever since it blew up I feel, like Cleansed or something.
Because It was a polluter? No.

A man took his horse to a vet And the vet says to him, "why do you have a long face?" "a horse goes.
" there's no man.
Right right.
A horse goes to a vet.
And the vet looks at his face and he says to him, - "my friend--" - a horse goes to the doctor.
The doctor says, "why the long face?" Can't tell jokes.
- more pinot grig', Patrick? - no, thanks.
Speaking of jokers, where's that other son of yours today? I didn't think he was invited.

- he's a mess.
All right.
Well, he's got no shortage of lawyers here.

- no, ton', I'll-- - sit down.
Of course, this one here would only take the case for free.
That's why we want her over at Grubman, Grubman & Curcio.
Actually, Mead' and I have had some conversations And we may still snag her over at the firm - when she's done with law school.
- no kidding? We went out to dinner with steven grubman and the subject came up.
Steven was very impressed with her work at the poverty law center.
He even got into starting salaries.
He was talking $170.
Jesus.
Sweetheart, that's fantastic, huh? He had had too much gevrey.
Don't devalue yourself.
We've got a really interesting case right now.
We're defending James Trefoglio, The county commissioner, on those corruption charges.
Is that your case, honey? Bid rigging.
It's got bagmen, whores.
It's fascinating.
- ( rock music playing ) - ( growling ) ( chuckles ) yeah, he does that, Sometimes most of the day-- just stares at chrissy's picture.
The fuck? You know, they're funny that way.
I had an aunt, her cat would only sit At the exact corners of the table, staring at her, Or at the intersection of two walls, staring in.
This fucking animal is history, today! - pick him up.

( door opens and closes ) The Cifaretto crew-- it's a fucking chinese fire drill over there, Especially now that Carlo is absent.
I know.
I want you to skipper that thing.
- really? - fucking thing is one big ATM machine.
All our construction with New York folds right into your kick.
Yeah.
Jesus christ, I thought you'd be pleased.
I didn't hand you the diagnosis of the clap.
With due respect, I'd like to just mull it a little.
I'm no spring chicken no more.
I don't want to have me dying on you, leaving you worse off than before.
Oh, you with the dead thing.
You got the arms and upper body of a 20-year-old.
I gotta work at that.
And I had the prostate.
All right, sure.
Go ahead.
I'm a little miffled, but yeah, sit with it.
Thanks, T.
This means everything, Your faith in me.
In the line of duty.
But we're short-handed.
Anyway, mid-60s, Probably used the payphones.
We don't have payphones.
Just a couple of stations have them anymore.

I can already see a difference.
Yeah.
Gonna get back at it myself.
Listen I'm gonna join the army.
What? Did you sign any shit? No, but this week I will.
I gotta deal with rhiannon first.
Rhiannon? What about your mother? - her too.
- are you nuts? You wanna get sent to Iraq? Afghanistan.
The army's probably good for my career.
You don't have a career.
Right.
My ultimate goal is to qualify for helicopter pilot training, Afterwards go to work for trump or somebody, Be their personal pilot.
( stammers ) I'm not even gonna tell your mother about this.
And don't you do nothing Until we've had another chance to talk.
- you hear me? - yes.
He's gonna join the fucking army.
I gotta be frank, You people got him out of his room-- great-- So he can be cannon fodder? I wasn't aware of this latest plan.
( door opens ) Sorry.
I should have gone before we left the house.
Still on the army thing.
On the other hand, I'm thinking maybe he could benefit From the training, the discipline.
Maybe the army'd be great for him If there wasn't a war going on.
Oh, I didn't tell you, he spent $200 On a set of cds that teach arabic.
Jesus Christ, come on.
"shish kebab"-- what else do you need to know? He used to just veg in front of that tv.
He says he wants to get past the hate, Focus it only on the terrorists.
I really can't reveal much more.
Right.
Even though we're paying.
This whole therapy thing, I gotta tell you-- What? My mother was a borderline personality.
So what? - I don't know if you knew that.
- no.
Well, I did not have a very happy childhood.
No? There was little love in the house.
He's mentioned your mother very briefly.
A very difficult woman, Undermining.
I tried to place her in a retirement community For her own good-- She turned on me completely.
You see, I never could please my ther.
To what do I owe this chance to go sake bombing? We used to have dinner all the time.
You're gonna get married and my chances are flying by me.
- yeah.
- so, your brother, Our little soldier boy-- What do you think is wrong with that googootz? The world is a sad, fucked-up place.
If there's so much suffering in the world, - why did you go off the pediatrician bit? - we talked about that.
You said you wanted to be a lawyer for black people.
Oh, that's all I said? Really? What I said was: the state can crush the individual.
- New Jersey? - the government.
Specifically, the federal government.
And what about little babies In the face of meningitis? You know what really turned me? Seeing the way italians are treated.
It's like mom says.
And if we can have our rights trampled like that, Imagine what it's like for recent arrivals.
- well - if I hadn't seen you Dragged away all those times by the fbi Then I'd probably be a boring suburban doctor.
( rock song playing ) Bye-bye.
Wave "bye-bye, grandpa.
" - bye-bye, pop-pop.

" - bye-bye.
- bye-bye.

Your old beat.
Phil Leotardo got popped.
Damn.
We're gonna win this thing.
Okay As your parents we don't feel Joining the army is in your best interest.
This country is in a crisis.
How can one soldier stop it? When my enlistment's up, I could join the CIA or something.
And with a military background I'll have a leg up.
And as an arabic speaker, I'll be really useful.
I don't understand.
You're gonna ask the donald For some time off from your pilot job to go on CIA missions? - everything's a joke to you.
- I'm not having a good time.
Did you or did you not want me to go to military school? But I started to cry.
At least you'd have come out an officer.
Even then I was opposed to it.
I hate this idea.
I'm applying for officer's candidate school.
I want to be a liaison officer With the local population anyway.
Officer's candidate school? You have terrible grades.
You flunked out of college.
Here we go.
That's all this is about, right? No, Anthony, that's not what this is all about.
You don't want to go to college-- don't go to college, - but don't get your legs blown off.
- always with the drama.
So what does your girlfriend say, the fashion model? She doesn't think I should go either.
Well? Not that long ago you talked about owning a club.
Right.
You had a problem with that too.
A lot of your friends are in film school, you say, Especially the ones you used to go to the clubs with.
Uh So I got this screenplay from danny baldwin.
We met at your cousin's movie.
Danny hoped I'd set him up with some financing, - but I never read it.
- well, you did now.
Yeah, I did now and Well, long story short, it's about a private detective That gets sucked into the internet through his, uh, data port.
And he's gotta solve Some murders and some virtual prostitutes.
I read it.
It's scary.
Point is, I talked to little Carmine And he's interested in developing it through his company.
He does porn.
He did "cleaver.
