    • Quotes
      • Malo: What's the worst thing you ever did, Joe?
      • Joe Sarcone: The worst thing I ever did was trust the wrong man.
      • Malo: How do you know when you're trusting the wrong man?
      • Joe Sarcone: You're questioning me? Huh, you little shit? I always make my decision with my head, not my heart. I got to where I am in this world by taking advantage of people's trust, and I'm not ashamed of that. There's a Maldonado seed. You hungry?
      • Malo: I can always eat.
      • Joe Sarcone: Kitchen never closes, and everybody eats at my table.
      • Malo: You really trust everybody in here?
      • Joe Sarcone: That door you just walked through only works one way - In. Once you're in, the only way out is to the sounds of gunshots and bagpipes.
