That scene wasn't supposed to be played as comedy until Stephen Baldwin wanted to have fun with his line. Kevin Pollack delivers his line straight. After Baldwin's ad lib, the rest of the actors tried to outdo the other by ad libbing even crazier ways of delivering that line. No wonder they were all laughing. It looked like ad lib to me. Good to know that it indeed was adlib scene.
I like Benecio del Toro's delivery the most.
None of those actors were believable as criminals but I still enjoy the movie.
