What Life Means to Henry

Henry is so used to his old way of living that the moment when it's the only option for him to live is turning himself over to the FBI agents, otherwise he would be killed by his best friends. His life was always at risk due to the works he used to do. But after he was caught by the police with all his tapes on their hands, it was the prime time in his life when he needed to think of safety consistently. He wasn't safe inside the jail because Jimmy might get him killed. He wasn't safe outside also because either Jimmy or Paulie might kill him because he got caught for drugs. When he was out with a bail, Jimmy already made the plan to kill him, according to Henry's view. At that moment, FBI made him turn himself and his family over to them, because his family and his life were in danger. Now when he was in safe zone, he is missing his old life, where his best friends are ready to kill him. It seems like if he lives his old life would be the best option for him to live like a real man.
