I'll make you a deal, Mr. P. What kind of a deal? Well, I've become attached to those...
Something wrong with the clip?

Anthony Rossano:
I'll make you a deal, Mr. P.
Snaps:
What kind of a deal?
Anthony Rossano:
Well, I've become attached to those jewels; they remind me of Theresa. I'd like to buy them back from you for $50,000.
Snaps:
Now where'd you come up with another 50,000 smackers?
Anthony Rossano:
I stole it from you.
Snaps:
Connie!
Connie:
[Connie enters the room]
What is it, boss?
Connie:
[Snaps takes what he thinks is a gun, but is actually a leg and thigh of chicken]
You took my gun.
Snaps:
[Connie leaves the room]
Now you're trying to tell me you stole another 50,000 clams since the last time I saw you?
Anthony Rossano:
Remember that dummy corporation I set up for you to hide your protection income?
Snaps:
Yeah.
Anthony Rossano:
Remember who you made treasurer as a beard?
Snaps:
You didn't!
Anthony Rossano:
I just wrote out a check to myself. As treasurer, the bank asked me no questions.
Snaps:
Only a rat would steal another guy's extortion money.
Anthony Rossano:
Here's my offer: You give me back the jewels that are rightfully mine, and I'll give you back the money, which isn't.
Snaps:
All right, I guess you outsmarted me. You give me that money, and I'll give you these jewels.

I DON'T LOVE YOUR DAUGHTER FOR HER MONEY,
AND I CAN PROVE IT.
- YEAH? HOW?
- WHEN I MARRY HER,
I PLAN TO GIVE HER MY ENTIRE FORTUNE.
- HOW MUCH CAN A GOOMBAH LIKE YOU HAVE?
- $48,642.30.
- HOW DID YOU SAVE 50 GRAND ON 400 A MONTH?
- I STOLE IT FROM YOU.
- YOU WHAT?
YOU WALK INTO MY HOUSE
AND TELL ME
YOU STOLE 50 Gs FROM ME?
- THIS GINK!
YOU WANT I SHOULD BUMP HIM?
- GIVE ME THAT GAT, ALDO.
YOU KNOW WHAT I TOLD YOU.
YOU'RE A BUTLER NOW.
"BUTTLE"!
- THAT PIECE HAS BEEN
IN THE FAMILY FOR YEARS!
- QUIT SQUAWKIN'.
NOW, I'M WAITIN' FOR AN EXPLANATION.
- MAYBE I SHOULD START FROM THE BEGINNING.
- JUST START
FROM WHERE YOU STOLE MY MONEY.
- WHEN I FIRST TOOK OVER AS YOUR ACCOUNTANT,
YOUR BOOKS WERE A MESS.
- THEY DON'T SOUND LIKE
THEY'RE IN NO GREAT SHAPE NOW.
DAMN IT. DOUBLE NEGATIVE.
- YOUR OVERHEAD WAS HIGH,
AND YOUR NET PROFITS WERE LOW.
I CHANGED ALL THAT.
- AND I SENT YOU A FRUIT BASKET
FOR CHRISTMAS, DIDN'T I?
- I TOOK ALL THE PROFITS FROM YOUR PROTECTION RACKETS
AND USED THEM TO UPGRADE YOUR BOOTLEGGING OPERATION.
NOW, THAT ALLOWED ME TO CUT THE COSTS
ON YOUR BEER A DIME A BOTTLE.
- SURE, YOU WERE FATTENING ME UP FOR THE KILL.
- THEN A STRANGE THING HAPPENED.
I MADE
A SLIGHT CLERICAL ERROR.
- WAS THAT THE ONE THAT COST ME $50,000?
- DON'T GET AHEAD OF THE STORY. - WELL, EXCUSE ME!
- IT WAS A SIMPLE MISTAKE IN ADDITION.
ON THE BOOKS, I ACCIDENTALLY
LOWERED YOUR COSTS BY A NICKEL
INSTEAD OF A DIME.
NOW, WHEN I REALIZED MY MISTAKE,
I WENT TO SPEAK TO YOU ABOUT IT.
- I DON'T REMEMBER THAT.
- YOU WERE IN CHICAGO.
IT WAS ST. VALENTINE'S DAY.
- OH, YEAH. [laughing]
- [laughing]
- ZIP IT.
- I REMEMBER IT WAS ST. VALENTINE'S DAY
BECAUSE THAT'S THE DAY I MET YOUR DAUGHTER.
- IN VENDETTI'S SPEAKEASY. I'LL KILL HER.
- IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT.
AND THAT'S WHEN I TURNED THAT 5-CENT ERROR
INTO THE KEY TO MY HAPPINESS.
I HID IT ON THE BOOKS
AND BEEFED UP PETTY CASH.
AND I KNEW THAT A BIG MAN LIKE ANGELO PROVOLONE
WOULDN'T BEGRUDGE HIS FUTURE SON-IN-LAW A NICKEL,
WHICH I PLAN TO GIVE
TO YOUR DAUGHTER ANYWAY.
- OH, THIS GUY IS BEAUTIFUL.
HE FLATTERS YOU TO YOUR FACE
WHILE HE STICKS A KNIFE IN YOUR BACK.
- I'M NOT PROUD OF WHAT
I'VE DONE, MR. PROVOLONE.
BUT I'D DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN
TO CAPTURE YOUR DAUGHTER'S HEART.
