Come To An Agreement

TOMMY
We could come to an agreement,
A solution that’s unique.
We could come to an agreement,
Or he’s waiting as we speak.
I can see you’re turning ashen.
Look, I’m not without compassion.
We could come to an agreement,
Or you could pay three grand a week.

JACK
I understand. So what’s the other option?

TOMMY
We could come to an agreement,
There are different things to try.

JACK
You keep saying that.

TOMMY
We could come to an agreement,
I’m an easy-going guy.
You could have a happy landing
If we had an understanding.
We could come to an agreement,
Or you can kiss your balls goodbye.

JACK
What kind of agreement?

TOMMY
Sometimes you need challenges to
Set you Free.
In adversity,
Peoeple grow. You said you were broke, except you
Weren’t, see?
You’ve got currency
You don’t know.

When my Donna died, my world blew
Into pieces, Jack.
When my Donna died, a part of me
Died, too.
And I thought that I could leave
Her in the past, I tried,
But I’m sitting here and wishing I
Was you.
I know it sounds bizarre,
But things are what they are.
I would like to spend the weekend
With your girlfriend, Jack.

JACK
What?

TOMMY
I will be the perfect gentleman, I
Swear.

JACK
Are you insane? I’m not going to lend her out.

TOMMY
Just a weekend, us alone, me and
Your girlfriend, Jack,
Then we’re settled and it’s
Finished. Fair is fair!

JACK
No chance!

TOMMY
Look, if you were all that eager to
Get married, Jack,
Then you wouldn’t have been sitting
In that chair.
So what’s a weekend?
What’s the difference?
You’ve got lots of time to spare.

JACK
I’m getting nauseous.

TOMMY
Let’s just come to an agreement.
Tell me what you want to do.
We can come to an agreement.
You’ve got options: let’s review.
You can ow me ’til you’re strung
Out,
Or have Vinnie rip your tongue out,
Or we can come to an agreement.
It’s completely up to you.

JACK
Look, you think I can just do this on my own? When I tell her what happened, she’s going to get on the next plane and never speak to me again.

TOMMY
Does she love you, Jack?

JACK
God help me…

TOMMY
Does she love you, Jack?

JACK
Until now, yeah.

TOMMY
If she loves you, Jack,
Then we can come to an agreement.
