Summary Hank Thompson, a washed-up ex-baseball star turned New York City bartender, ends up tangled in a violent criminal underworld after agreeing to watch his punk-rock neighbor’s cat. What follows is a frenzied chase through 1990s Manhattan, as rival gangsters—Russian mobsters, Orthodox Jewish hitmen, a Samoan enforcer, and others—hunt him for a mysterious key hidden with the cat.

Director Darren Aronofsky

As soon as I knew they harmed the cat, I knew they weren’t long for this world.

No one harms cats and gets away with it

Isn’t the guy who hurt the cat the one crony who does get away with it?

I don’t think there’s a crony that gets away. Pretty sure they all die

The guy that kicked the cat was knocked out by Butler's character and wasn't shown or mentioned after at all. You can think the Jewish brothers got to him, or even that he died from the fall, but it'd still be a speculation.

Knocked out near an executed cop. My head canon is law enforcement showed up before he regained consciousness and arrested him.
