in a chia pudding sample?
- We just opened up.
- ASHER: A what?
A chia bar.
- Chia seed?
- Chia?
Yeah, it's a paleo

More calcium than milk,
more omega-3 than salmon!
ASHER: Uh-huh.
Yeah, if you present that flyer,

TAILOR: Your mother
don't want pleats?
I'm giving you pleats.
What can she do?
This doesn't mean I want you
to disobey your mother.
Only I can do that.
And you know why?
Because I paid my dues.
Good. Go change
and bring me the pants.
- [DOOR BELL JINGLES]
- Ash! Come.
I got something for you.
For the uptown thing.
When's the out-of-state job
coming in?
Avi went a different way.
A different way?
What's it matter?
He didn't go your way.
He went with Uziel, didn't he?
- What, you don't like Uziel?
- I mean...
Of course, I like Uziel, I taught
him every goddamn thing he knows.
Well, maybe you shouldn't have taught
him everything he knows, then.
Here, come on. Anyway,
I got another job for you, Ash.
- What is it?
- A job, Ash! Doing what you do!
Sure, just not a good job.
All the good jobs
are going to Uziel.
Okay. All right,
maybe you don't take it,
I got somebody else in mind.
Can I ask you something?
When's the last time
you got a little keppi?
Yeah, you. Come on.
Get outta here.
- Tell your mother I'll call her later.
- [DOOR BELL JINGLES]

I don't know. It's been awhile.
Why don't you make a date

No? Why no?
Look out there, man.
It used to just be
dumpy Puerto Rican girls
and Hassids with ten kids.
Now, they show up every day
with the shorts cut off
like they do.
We're not an order

Everyone needs a little keppi

What have you done?
You weren't supposed
to kill him, that's my part.
I barely touched him.
He said some shit in Chinese,
grabbed his left arm,
hit the floor...
Heart attack?
- Saved me a bullet, I guess.
- Saved me a blowjob.
- Just leave him, Asher.
- I can't.
Why not?
He's not going anywhere.
There's a plan here, Marina.
Well, plans change, Asher.
That's a good thing, no?
[ASHER GRUNTS]
[ASHER AND MARINA GRUNT]
Hey, Marina, uh...
I was thinking...
- Um...
- You want to make a date
with me, Asher?
No, no.
No. That's...
That's not it. I just...
Thank you for...
helping me tonight.
Anytime, Asher.
Call me, will you?
And tell Abram to call me.
He still owes me from last time.

Avi.
Hello, Asher.
Can you imagine
they still make...
clothes from this stuff, huh?
You remember?
Change of days.
Changed days...
Um...
You know how I am with...
favors. So...
You know there had to be
extenuating circumstances
for me to come down here.
If you need a favor,
why not call on Uziel?
And who says I didn't?
[CHUCKLES]
Ah.
- Unavailable, I assume.
- No.
Uziel and I talked
and we ended up
just talking about you.
I need someone...
I can rely on.
I need someone with a...
a history. We have history, hmm?
[SIGHS]
Rafi's been killed.
And his wife, Laura.
And their kids.
At their home.
Do we know why?
Probably a new crew.
Testing the integrity
of the organization.
Who are they?
They have no kind.
Various, uh, ex-military...
- Like you and me.
- No.
No.
We have a kind.
I want you to keep this very,
very quiet.
I don't want you to tell
even Abram.
Three jobs.
One would just not send
the right message.
Rafi was a good soldier.
Let me see your hands.
The hand of a God.
In his home...
Asher...

an ambulance soon!
[SIGHS]
- DOCTOR: Where did this happen?
- ASHER: In a hallway.
- At home?
- Work.
Were you running at the time?
You know, if I do my job right,
there's usually not much
running involved.
Turn around.
How's Abram?
He's good.
He still owes me
from the last time. Shirt.
Jesus, you should have
come to see me sooner.
We never did get all those...
those bullet fragments out.
Okay, it's okay.
You were in a rush.
It might have been okay
five years ago, but...
You're gonna need
to get some X-rays.
See what's left in there.
And then I'm gonna have
- to open you up.
- I'm fine, Doc, I'm fine.
Are you fucking kidding me?
It hurts me to just look at it.
And I want you
to get some X-rays!
What do I owe you?
This is why you keep having
these blackouts.
- It's gonna spread into your blood...
- Doc.
- ...to your lungs...
- Doc!
Just give me something
for the pain.

You should've waited
for an ambulance.
I've seen lots of people
get into those things
and not come out
on the other end.
Thought I'd take my chances
on the subway.
You could say the same
for the subway.
I guess you're right.
No place is safe, is it?
Well, it's pretty safe
right here.
I got something for you too.
[MUSIC PLAYING OVER RADIO]
Do you always walk around
with an umbrella on a clear day?
You always leave music on
when you're not at home?
I don't like walking
into a silent apartment.
I don't like getting caught
in the rain.
Well...
thank you for this.
Are you feeling better?
I am.
Thanks, again.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
You know...
I cook.
- I'm sorry?
- I mean...
it's what I do most every night,
I cook. Eight o'clock.
- Every night at eight?
- Every night.
What if something happens?
Hardly ever does.
I could cook for two.
Are you a good cook?
If I have somebody to cook for.
I'm not much company.
Not much would be an upgrade.
Tomorrow night.
I'll make enough for two.
If you come,
you'll have a great meal.
If not, I'll have lunch
for the following day.
I'm glad you're feeling better.
Good night.

Oh, you're welcome to,
but there's no one left.
I'm the last one and if you get
rid of me, no one's gonna come.
It's me, or nothing else.
Did you remember the cookies?
- Yes.
- Oh, good.
You look like shit.
You look like a shit
hanging out of a horse's ass,
that won't quit.
What an imagination.
I know who you are.
You told me once...
you couldn't...
look after your baby,
so your man left ya.
You couldn't hold on
to your child,
so your man left ya.
Oh...
why do you even come back?
Well, you just keep coming back.
You'll come in here, all cheery,
with a bag of groceries.
And you'll find my foul...
rotting corpse on the linoleum.
Stinking up the joint.
And it'll make you sick.
Okay, Mom.

Hello, Asher.
Can I have one of these?

Everything all right, Marina?
Everything's fine.
I'll be honest with you, Asher.
Avi told me it was
your birthday.
I know it's a lie, but...
I came anyway.
[ASHER SIGHS]
So?
What do you say?
Shall we pretend
it's your birthday?
[DOORBELL RINGS]
Excuse me.
- Hello.
- Hi.
Please.
Oh, I'm so sorry
I'm interrupting.
No, no, no. Not at all. Uh,
Marina, Sophie. Sophie, Marina.
Marina and I were...
just going over a few things
for work.
For work.
Yes, and I got thirsty.
And now, I got hungry.
So...
I'm gonna go grab a bite.
Any suggestions?
Restaurants are good.
Restaurants.
Thank you for the drink.
Happy birthday, Tin Man.
Bir... Wait, it's your birthday?
Apparently.
- Well, I didn't bring anything.
- Oh, no, no.
How could you have known?
I'm going to warm up
some dinner for you.
No, no, no, that's okay.
I don't want to make
any trouble.
I'm not troubled.
That's no trouble.
What were you doing
in my hallway?
I figured...
if I was going to pass out,
in front of your door would be
as good a place as any.
Does that happen to you a lot?
First time.
Where do you work?
In a ballet studio.
- Hmm. In Brooklyn?
- Mm-hmm.
This place is pretty empty.
Things have a way
of gathering dust.
I'm sorry, I can get rude
when I'm nervous.
I noticed.
It's almost charming.
I don't know,
maybe I don't have
a lot of things, but...
what I do have is my home.
- So, what do you do?
- I'm sort of a contractor.
You've done that
for a long time?
Very long time.
Did you ever think
about doing something else?
Turns out,
I have no other skills.
Who's that?
Casualty of life.
It's okay,
you don't have to tell me.
She was French.
You got any pictures like that?
Yeah. A few.
Why did you open your door?
Any other girl
would have called the cops,
or locked up. You didn't.
Why?
You were right.
About what?
You are a good cook.
TAILOR: Asher, come in.
I got good news for you.
Yeah?
Avi sent down another job
for you.
- What's it pay?
- Your usual rate,
plus 25 percent.
- Twenty-five?
- Twenty-five!
You, and a couple of guys.
Wait a minute. Crew?
No.
I don't work with crews
anymore, I work alone.
- Avi knows that.
- It's 25 percent
above your usual rate,
it's what you've been
asking for.
- More money, better jobs.
- I don't work with crews!
Always messy!
Some guy has a bad day,
his girl breaks his heart.
Somebody cuts him off
on the expressway,
next thing you know, the walls
are repainted with blood.
It's good money, Asher.
Uziel asked for you.
- It's Uziel's crew?
- It's a good job,
what you do best.
Are you Asher?
- Yes.
- [CHUCKLES]
Well, I'm not supposed
to say this,
but he has been walking around
differently all day.
Differently?
Nervous.
I've never seen him
like this before,
that's why I noticed.
- I'm Hannah.
- Hello.
You can go in. He's waiting
for you in the back.
Thank you.
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
Asher.
Come here.
What do you think? Huh?
Yeah, it's a beautiful house,
Uziel.
- It's nice, right?
- Hmm.
I made you some coffee.
- We can have whatever you want.
- No, it's good.
- You've been busy.
- I have.
[SIGHS]
Seems like all I do is work.
Avi keeps me and my men busy.
- He's the boss.
- Yeah. I suppose he is.
It's nice.
Having moments like this.
When I do, I always think,
"Asher would like it back here."
Hmm.
You're upset
about the out-of-town job.
I told Avi, I said,
"That's Asher's job."
But... but like you say,
he's the boss.
Politics, I guess.
I could've used you
on this last one.
I lost a man.
Yeah. Took home
a little memento, myself.
Well, you've always been
a tough son of a bitch.
I wasn't always that way.
- I owe that to you.
- Nah.
Some things
you just can't teach.
Yeah, well,
Avi's getting old, right?
Sour?
He's losing sight
of some of the angles.
Well, he didn't lose a man,
and smuggle home some lead
on a job, so...
What do you do, then,
with a man like him?
What happens in our business
when you get too old?
Well, there's no
retirement home for us.
- I told you that.
- Why can't it be a long life?
Hmm?
I got a girl, she's pregnant.
We'll have a family
in this house.
Why can't it be a full home?
Maybe you should ask Rafi
and his family.
Don't be angry with me.
I used what you taught me
to make a life.
Uziel...
I just came here to see the gun.
[UZIEL SIGHS]
This is the gun I taught you
how to shoot.
- [GUN COCKS]
- Nothing like the original.
Be nice having some legitimate
backup for a change, huh?
Yeah.
- You have a wonderful home.
- Oh, thank you!
Hope you're very happy.
- Uziel.
- Yeah.
Dora. I got your medicine.
[SOPHIE SNIFFLES]
Ugh. What is that smell?
Oh... oh, God...
Oh, God, you couldn't make it
to the bathroom in time?
Well, it wouldn't have happened
if you got here on time.
Oh, God, it's everywhere!
Well, clear it up!
That's what you're here for.
Just... just stay there, okay?
Just stay there
till I get it all cleaned up.
DORA: I don't care about that.
You won't help me
because you're...
- too fucking selfish!
- Selfish? I...
I pick up your groceries, I help
you with your laundry, your...
I do your hair.
I come here every day.
I clean up your shit!
The dogs have got it right.
Go out into the woods alone,
and die in the leaves.
Give everyone a break.
I wish I were dead.
Oh...
Mom.
Mom [SNIFFLES]
Mom, I'm sorry.
Who are you?
I'm your daughter.
I don't have a daughter.
Sorry.
Yeah.

- Bye!
Hello.
Uh, how did you find me?
There aren't that many

That music, my God.
How beautiful.
Yeah, it's...
It's from this ballet.
- Look, I gotta go. I can't...
- Something wrong?
Uh...
Uh, I don't... I don't want
to talk about it, okay?
There's nothing you can do.
- Well, let me come with you.
- No, not today. Sorry.

Back up.
My mother has dementia.
She asked me to kill her.
Imagine actually
killing someone.
I could never do it.
I mean...
who gets to decide whose life
is worth ending?
What if it was a matter
of survival?
What if it was kill
or be killed?
What, that's different.
Then I'd kill.
- And how about Hitler?
- Hitler?
- Oh, definitely kill him.
- All right.
So...
it's not the killing
that's the problem.
Sometimes I have fantasies,
I just...
I walk into her room
with a big gun and bang,
- I shoot her.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Pull it back just a little bit.
I know.
It's an awful thing to say.
Besides, you wouldn't want
to do it that way.
There are a lot of better ways
to do it.
Like what?
How 'bout poison?
- Like a pill in her food?
- Mm-hmm.
- But she could spit it out.
- Hmm.
How about an injection?
Nah, she's afraid of needles.
- That wouldn't work.
- Ah.
You could suffocate her.
With a pillow over her head?
Probably wouldn't take too long,
especially if
she was already asleep.
Yeah, I still don't think
I could do it.
- Maybe you could do it for me.
- Me?
- Just say the word.
- [CHUCKLES]
It's not funny.
It's hopeless.
- Uzi.
- You good?
- Good.
- There's room in the back.
Something on your mind?
I heard they call you
the Tin Man.
What's that about? Hmm?
Got a heart problem
or something?
You like musicals?
[UZIEL COUGHS]
How long you been doing this?
Long.
Army?
Was, yeah.
I just got back.
Fucking Mortaritaville.
My ears are still ringing.
Rockets coming down,
by the time I got up,
I busted my ear drum.
Could've been worse.
I could've lost my balls.
- UZIEL: Lyor.
- Huh?
Asher doesn't talk too much,
why don't you leave him alone?
Oh, is that right?
You shoot nice?
Mm-hmm.
How many you shot?
I killed four fuckers
over there.
Didn't even see me coming.
This your first job on your own?
After the army?
Yeah...
You'll probably be the one
to fuck everything up.
[CREW LAUGHS]

I'll be sure to signal for help.

I can't watch this. I mean...
If I could fix things, I would.
If I could...

If I could...

I would do that too.
I would do anything. But...
I just...
Oh, I forgot to take

[INHALES] Yeah.
Thank you, Asher.

Asher?
Let... let's go.
Oh, that's nice.
I'm an awful person.
Horrible.
I mean...
What kind of daughter

think about doing these things?
A daughter who loves
her mother very much.
I thought
you were gonna kill her.
Sorry, Asher,
you don't deserve this.
Ah, well...
Who ever gets
what they deserve?
Can we just...
pretend this never happened?
Start again?
Asher.
Asher, hi! Um, Sophie.
It's so nice to meet you.
So, uh, what is it you do

I just killed a man

That's concerning.
I agree.
So, am I safe here, then?
Mm-hmm.
Good.
Mm. Pasta for breakfast?
I could definitely become

But I knew they were one of us.
I wasn't alone, Abram.
- I was with somebody!

I'll try to find something out.
What do you know?
What do you know, Abram?
There's things you don't know...

Changes you don't want to know
anything about.
This have something to do
with Uziel's job?
Huh?
- Delivery.
- Just leave it there.
Okay, Ash...
there's a protocol, here.
I get the information,
I pass it along,
action gets taken.
Let's stick to protocol.
That's our dance, here.
I need to know who it was.
Go home, and I'll call you
when I know more.
How do I know home is safe?
Because I'm telling you it is.
Have I ever let you down before?
Come on, trust me.
Go home.

Stay there.
Ah! Fuck!
Ah! What the f... No!
[LYOR SIGHS]
Uzi's never been here before.
He has no idea where I live.
Fuck you. Fucking Tin Man.
Fuck...
Start talking. Who did this?
Wouldn't you come after us
if we pulled a fucking job
- like that?
- It's a job like any other.
You can't be
this fucking stupid. Huh?
It's a fucking takeover,
you moron.
Your boy Uziel
and your best friend,
the fucking tailor.
They wanted Avi's operation.
[SCREAMING]

They said I had to kill you...
so I can live.
You, or your girl.
[MUSIC PLAYING OVER RADIO]
Oh, hey.
- Hey.
- Uh...
Sorry to bother you.
- Uh, it's okay.
- It's Sophie, right?
Right.
Uh, I'm waiting
for the landlord...
to fix the burner on my stove.
I'm sick of waiting for him.
I know,
he can be slow sometimes.
He's the worst. Uh,
I'm trying to fix it myself.
I'm missing a part, I think.
Do you mind if I just, maybe,
take a quick look at yours?
Uh...
sure, come in.
- [CELLPHONE RINGING]
- Oh, that's my phone.
One second.
Hello? Yeah,
can you hold on one second?
Just go ahead, it's right there.
I'll be right back, okay?
- You won't even know I'm here.
- Okay, great. Hello?
Oh, I'm so sorry about that.
Yes, this is Sophie. Um...
Uh, what day?
Tuesday?
Uh...
I think we can make
that work but I just have to...
I have to look at the schedule
for a second.
Yeah.
Well, how else is she
thinking about them?
Okay.
Yeah, I... I think that probably
should be able to work.
Yep.
We should... Yep. Let's put
that in. That sounds good.
Okay, thank you so much.
[SOPHIE GASPS]

No! No! Shit!
[PANTS] No! No!
Oh, Jesus! No! [GASPS]
SOPHIE: [BREATHING HEAVILY]
Fuck! No!
- Sophie. Sophie, look at me.
- No!
Look at me! I know this man.
I know his people.
- I know what he can do.
- [SOPHIE PANTS]
- We need to get out of here.
- What?
We have to go.
We have to go.
[TRAIN HORN BLARING]
We need to call the police.
And say what?
That a man broke
into my apartment.
That he was trying to kill me,
and that you shot him.
- That's the truth.
- Well, then, why are we running?
I can't go to the police.
Contractor.
I'm so stupid.
Why should I go with you?
Because I'm the only one
that can keep you safe.
How can I trust you?
Because you know me, Sophie.
You know me.
TRAIN CONDUCTOR: Ticket.
Thank you.
Where are you going?
- Bathroom.
- I'll come with you.
I want to go alone.

And you're just gonna
leave me here?
You'll be safe till I get back.
If you get back!
Don't expect me to sit around
and wait.
My only reason to stay alive
is the thought of you.
And I will get back.
I swear.
MAN 1: Nothing.

I always dreamt of...
a poetic kind of death.
Whoever gets what they deserve?
So, I get to be killed by
my own man, in my own home.
I'm not here to kill you, Avi.
I'm here to plead.
[LAUGHS]
I have heard many pleads
in my time.
But never have I heard a plea
from someone who is still
on the handle side of a gun.
I beg you, Avi...
You're begging me for what?
A life.
All I want is a life.
And everything
that has transpired? What?
It's to be forgotten?
No.
But we can't go on like this.
Not anymore.
[EXHALES]
And if I can't oblige you?
Then...
you will get a poetic death.
What did you expect me
to do? Huh?
[COUGHING] Let Uziel betray me?
Hand over to him everything
we've worked for...
all these years? And for what?
Because he's...
he's married with a wife,
and he has a child on the way?
I didn't know anything about it.
Yes, you did.
I didn't know
what they were planning.
Well, then, you should have.
Where would you go?
What would you do?
I don't know.
I never thought...
that it was going
to be you, Asher.

I went by your place.
I don't live there anymore.
I waited.
I don't want
to spend my life hiding.
You won't have to hide anymore,
Sophie.
My mom's dead.
I guess...
she finally had more courage
than I did.
I'm so sorry.
There's no more
looking over our shoulder.
We can have a future together.
We don't have a future.

Well, I hope I don't forget.
I hope I don't forget them.
But, if I do...
SOPHIE: Mom?
Mom, are you there?
DORA: Um, I'm sorry, Sophie.
That's what I wanted
to tell you.
Don't regret anything
in your life.
I love you, you know.
I love you too, Mom.

I'm looking for a contractor.
[EXHALES]
I said it might not be
The end of the world
But it always ends
In tears with a ginger girl
Her fiery hair
Was burning bright
It gave me trailers
All through the night
I dared not close my eyes
For too long
It feels so right
That it must be blonde
I said it might not be
The end of the world
But it always ends in tears
With a ginger girl
It might not be
The end of the world
But it always ends in tears
With a ginger girl
His Fanta pants
Were my fantasy
He's getting so bright
He's getting hard to see
He's an orangutan
With a hairy back
When we collided that night
I heard his ginger snap
It might not be
A poke in the eye
But it always ends in tears
With a ginger guy
It might not be
A poke in the eye
But it always ends in tears
With a ginger guy
Was brought on my knees,
I was force fed
And when I looked up
I was seeing red
I said it might not be
The end of the world
But it always ends in tears
With a ginger girl
I said it might not be
The end of the world
But it always ends in tears
With a ginger girl
Ooh, yeah
Break it down
Break it down, break it
[MAN SINGING

It might not be
The end of the world

It always ends
It always ends with tears

The end of the world
But it always ends in tears
