Now.
 
PADDY
You got spuds growing in your ears
or what?  I told you…I don't have it.   
Maybe I could drum up 30 Gs by the  
end of the week—
 
NICK
That's not good enough.
 
PADDY
Can I help it if I'm strapped for
cash?  C'mon now.  You're a scholar
and a gentleman.  Work with me here.  
Cut me some slack.  Me and Big Angie  
go way back—  
(corrects himself)
I mean, Big Angie and I. 

NICK considers. He smiles.

NICK
Perhaps we can work something out.
 
PADDY
Now you're speaking my language.
 
NICK
How's this?  Turn over the deed to  
the nightclub and Mr. Stefano will
consider your account settled.
