Ray, you're the leader, man. Be one! Come on, now.
You now what Jeff, l mean things have changed.
lt ain't like the days when it was seven of us on the Chitlin' Circuit.
l mean, if you weren't busy building a bowling alley, you'd seen that.
So you know about that, huh?
l know about everything.
l'm just trying to figure out how you did it.
You think l'm stealing from you, Ray?
lf the Shaw Agency is gonna give you a cut of the 10 percent l'm given them.
l might as well keep the goddamn money in my pocket.
Leave us alone. We need to talk.
Ray.
You can step outside, Joe.
l'll be in my office.
Ray, now l know that jealous bastard planted that lie in your head.
But l have never stolen from you, Ray, and l never will.
l got a small business loan, and, yeah, Milt Shaw was giving me a little extra,
but l'm not a thief, Ray.
Then what about that, Jeff, huh?
A promoter swearing you did side deals with him so you could split my overages!
How could you do that to me?
We've been through so much, we be so like brothers.
You know what, Ray?
lf we were like brothers,
why are you paying Joe more than you're paying me?
Damn all that! You broke my heart, man.
Well, you know what, Ray? You broke mine a long goddamn time ago!
Well, then there it is.
You know something, Ray?
You're going to get yours one day.
And l pray to God that he has mercy on your soul, you son of a bitch!
