So many wonderful "Morrie" lines.

"What am I, a schmuck on wheels?"

"I've been bleeding for this caper."

"Henry... oh Henry boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling."

"Okay, give em 8-to-5 on Cleveland."

Jimmy is being an unconscionable ball-breaker.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

They should've known he was dead... in twenty years he's never been away all night without calling.

RIP, Morrie.

he died like a month ago.

When they found Carbone in the meat truck, he was frozen so stiff it took them two days to thaw him out for the autopsy.

shut up, you probably haven't even seen Goodfellas. I bet you saw Casino instead and decided that was good enough, no need to see Goodfellas.

Nonetheless...I never saw Jimmy so happy. He was like a kid. We had money coming in through Pittsburgh...and even after a while the
Lufthansa thing began to calm down. Jimmy was so happy that morning, .because this was the ..day Tommy was being made. He must have made four calls to Tommy's house. They had a signal set up so he'd know the minute the ceremony was over.

SPOILER ALERT: He didn't make it and there was nothing we could do about it.

It was real greaseball shit.

Morrie: Henry, you're a good kid, I've been good to you, you've been good to me. But there's something really unreasonable going on here. Jimmy's being an unconsionable ball-breaker. I never agreed to 3 points on top of the vig! Am I something special? Some sort of schmuck on wheels?
Henry Hill: Morrie, please! You borrowed Jimmy's money, pay him.
Morrie: I never agreed to 3 points on top of the vig! What am I, fuckin nuts? Come on!
Henry Hill: Are you gonna argue with Jimmy Conway? Just give him his money so we can get the fuck outta here!
Morrie: Hey! Fuck 'em! Fuck 'em in the ear! What are you talking about? Fuck 'em in the other ear, that son of a bitch! Did I ever bust his balls? Did I? Did I? I could've jumped the dime a million times, and I wouldn't have to pay tip!
Henry Hill: Come on, Morrie, you're talking crazy, stop it!
Jimmy Conway: [Grabs telephone cord and chokes Morrie with it, then his wig falls off and Henry starts laughing] You got money for that fuckin' commercial. Fuckin' commercial, you don't got my money, you don't got my fuckin' money, huh?
Henry Hill: Jimmy, he'll pay, he'll pay.
Jimmy Conway: I'll fuckin' kill you, get the money, you fuckin' cocksucker, you hear me?
[Phone rings]
Jimmy Conway: Pay me my money.
Morrie: Hello? Who's this? He's here.
[Gives phone to Henry]
Morrie: Jimmy, I'm sorry.
Jimmy Conway: Yeah? You should be sorry. Don't fuckin' do it again and give me the money. Give me the fuckin' money, You hear me? You hear me, I gotta come here and you bust my balls? Give me the fuckin' money.
Morrie: OK, OK, OK. I'll pay you, kid.

He wasn't fond of Pesci/Tommy. He was fond of being untouchable and making way more money

Long time RPB

I disagree. Tommy was basically the only person Jimmy was fond of.

_________________

Jimmy and Hendry seemed tighter.

They did everything together. First at the hospital, etc

No, not at all.

Jimmy was grooming Tommy before he even met Henry.

_________________

I mean they literally had Henry as narrator talk about how close he and Jimmy were, complete with polaroid proof.

So you think Jimmy's reaction was about Tommy being gone not the loss of status/ power he thought was coming?

I think Jimmy didn't care about anyone but himself and earning.

No doubt Henry was #2 in Jimmy's eyes, but still behind Tommy. haven't seen the movie in a few years, but I seem to remember scenes where Tommy and Jimmy had secrets/plans they didn't share with Henry. For instance, killing off the other guys in the Luftansa heist. Henry knew nothing about that, but Tommy was heavily involved.

Pretty sure there was a moment where Henry expressed fear of Jimmy as well.

Tommy was definitely higher up in the pecking order than Henry.
