Buffalo Beats for Teach:

Act One

  1. Good Mornin', Fuckin' Ruthie, and what just happened at the Riverside. Sending Bobby to the Riv for grub and coffee.
  2. Last night's game. What's new? Things from the Thing. How's the weather?
  3. Bobby's back with the grub and coffee. And he talked to Ruthie. Bobby and Don are plotting something.
  4. Trying to find out what's up. Coins. Here's the shot. Bobby's going in.
  5. Don't send Bobby in, send Teach instead. What's with the pig sticker?
  6. Bobby's back. Is it gonna rain, and what's a pig sticker? Grilling Bobby till he leaves. He gets some money first.
  7. Tell me everything — the guy, coins. How to get in. If you don't know, then we need Fletch.
  8. The plan. Take a nap, come back at eleven. I'm not mad at you, are you mad at me?

Act Two

  1. Teach is late, Bobby's here, Fletch is missing. Bobby found a nickel. Give him some money and get him out of here.
  2. Now, where's Fletcher? And what was Bob doing here? Scout the guy's house. Fletcher and the pig iron.
  3. How to get in. Find the combination. Fletcher cheats at cards, Teach is going in Now.
  4. What's the gun for? Bobby's back and he wants in? Is Fletch in the hospital? Grace and Ruthie! Teach hits Bob.
  5. Ruthie calls. Bobby's gotta go to the hospital. Bobby ain't gonna do no job.
  6. Where'd Bobby get that coin? He bought it in a coin store? No, Teach will not leave!
  7. You stay away! Don attacks Teach. Bobby confesses. Teach blows up.
  8. Are you mad at me? He's all right. Is he all right? I look like a sissy. I'll honk the horn.
