Romolo:
Got big plans, Rocky. Goin' into business for myself. Gonna buy me a flower stand. You wanna... you wanna invest?. Rocky:
Oh, yeah. How much? Romolo:
A hundred? Rocky:
What? A flower stand for only a hundred bucks? Romolo:
Nah, there's this warehouse over on Avenue "A" with an old grandpop of a night watchman. With a C-note I think maybe I can buy me a heater, pay some slob to point it at the old guy while I make a score inside. Then I'll have enough dough to get me the flower stand. Rocky:
Romolo, you gotta get off this kick. You're gonna wind up with a bullet in your head. Romolo:
What are ya talkin' about? Rocky:
Well, it... it ain't worth it, don't you understand? You can't make any real dough sellin' flowers. Romolo:
So who's gonna sell flowers? That's just the front, Rocky. I'm gonna have me the prettiest, the sweetest smellin' bookie joint in the East side. All I need is a heater and a slob to point it.. Rocky:
I don't wanna lose you, can't you understand that. You're gonna get killed if you don't wise up and turn a leaf, you pathetic little jerk! Romolo:
What's the use of turnin' the leaf? Look at you. You tried it, didn't you? They wouldn't let you get away with it. We ain't got a chance guys like us, do we? Do we, Rocky?. Rocky:
[Reluctantly gives him the money]
