Returning home happy for having doubled the share that Gloria gave him of her winnings, Billy is crushed to find that Gloria has kept her word and left him for good. The mobsters who are after Billy track him down, and he pays off his debts. Billy then asks Sidney to set him up with a real job, and Sidney remarks that Billy and Gloria may be better off without each other. The film ends as Billy and Sidney launch into yet another basketball argument and return to the court where they first met to play a one-on-one game, but this time as friends.
