Threatened by Leo (Robert Prosky), Frank (James Caan) is left with nothing to lose. After he has Jessie (Tuesday Weld) and their child taken to an unknown safe haven, he destroys all of his businesses, and anything Leo has ever given him. He then breaks into Leo's house, kills him, and survives a shootout with his men, outside. Wounded, Frank walks into the night, back into the harsh life with which he first began.

Frank: Did it ever occur to you, to try to work for a living? Take down your own scores?
Unnamed Detective: OK, fuck this guy.
Urrizi: I'll tell you something, I'm gonna be on your ass so much, you're gonna get careless. And on that day I'm gonna be in that place.
Frank: And that, is the last place that you wanna be. 'Cause no matter what happens, I will never, ever take a pinch from a greasy motherfucker like you.
