- Stop eating my macadamia nuts!
- Give me a kiss.
- You can't stay here. Out!
- Why? You expecting company?
Not Officer Krupke, the saintly cop?
There's nothing going on.
And he's not a saint, - - simply a decent human being.
Something you couldn't... If you eat one more of those... - Are you having an affair?
- No, we just hang out together.
You should have heard that b*tch downstairs talking about it.
What's the real issue here? Us, or what some idiot neighbour thinks?
It's been like a cold war.
If I try to talk about it, you... - I just tried to make you happy.
- No, that's not all.
I used to come home, and you'd hug me.
You'd kiss me and ask how my day was. When did you do that last?
It's not important.
It's history.
- You go around with this girl!
- I'm not having an affair.
This thing between you and the cop is none of my business.
But... there is one thing that's very important. This: Don't be afraid.
"The Eddie Biasi Players!" You want money.
Of course you want money.
Just fifty grand in seed money.
