00:01:10.160 --> 00:01:13.597
<i>Frank always used to say,
"Tell your story walkin', pal."</i>

00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:17.152
<i>He was more philosophical
than your average gumshoe,</i>

00:01:17.320 --> 00:01:19.000
<i>but he liked to do his talkin'
on the move,</i>

00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:21.680
<i>so here's how it all went down.</i>

00:01:22.160 --> 00:01:25.358
<i>I got somethin' wrong with my head.
That's the first thing to know.</i>

00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:26.560
If!

00:01:26.561 --> 00:01:28.040
<i>It's like having glass in the brain.</i>

00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:30.392
<i>I can't stop pickin' things apart,</i>

00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:33.560
<i>twistin' 'em around,
reassembling 'em.</i>

00:01:33.720 --> 00:01:35.837
<i>Words and sounds, especially.</i>

00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:38.157
<i>It's like an itch
that has to be scratched.</i>

00:01:38.320 --> 00:01:41.233
Quit pullin' at it. You're gonna make
a fuckin' mess out of things.

00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:44.633
I got threads in my heads.

00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:47.199
I got threads in my heads!

00:01:48.080 --> 00:01:49.799
I got threads in my heads, man!

00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:53.034
<i>And I twitch a lot.</i>

00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:54.475
<i>It's hard to miss.</i>

00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:56.518
<i>It makes me look like
a goddamn spastic,</i>

00:01:56.720 --> 00:01:59.189
<i>but if I try to hold it back,
itjust makes it worse.</i>

00:01:59.360 --> 00:02:00.430
Ah.

00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:02.672
Shit, just help me out, will ya?

00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:05.196
Like I said, a fuckin' mess!

00:02:05.720 --> 00:02:08.360
Jesus, Freakshow, ruin another sweater.

00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:10.199
No, cut it closer.
Cut it closer.

00:02:11.200 --> 00:02:12.680
<i>Fuckin' mess is right.</i>

00:02:13.160 --> 00:02:15.072
<i>The nun said my soul wasn't
at peace with God</i>

00:02:15.160 --> 00:02:16.160
<i>and I should do penance.</i>

00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:19.856
<i>Frank said anyone teaching God's love
while they hit you with a stick,</i>

00:02:19.880 --> 00:02:21.872
<i>should be ignored on every subject.</i>

00:02:22.720 --> 00:02:23.870
<i>Frank Minna.</i>

00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:26.716
<i>If you had to pickjust one guy
to be on your side,</i>

00:02:26.880 --> 00:02:28.234
<i>he's the one you'd want.</i>

00:02:28.600 --> 00:02:31.559
<i>It's Minna's game.
We're all just in the lineup.</i>

00:02:31.720 --> 00:02:32.756
- Boys.
- Boss.

00:02:33.040 --> 00:02:34.554
Frank. Frankly Frankady Franko!

00:02:34.720 --> 00:02:35.760
All right, listen.

00:02:35.920 --> 00:02:38.799
Here's the shot.
I'll be up on the third floor.

00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:41.794
Lionel will go to the payphone
in about 20 minutes.

00:02:41.960 --> 00:02:44.077
When they come,
probably three or four of them,

00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:45.720
when they come, you call me here.

00:02:45.880 --> 00:02:48.190
I'll buzz 'em in.
Coney waits at the door.

00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:49.919
I buzz him in, he stays inside.

00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:52.192
Lionel's listening, sharp on the line.

00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.472
If you hear me say, "We have a problem,"
hustle over.

00:02:55.640 --> 00:02:58.439
Coney lets you in.
The two of you come upstairs,

00:02:58.600 --> 00:02:59.716
back me up quick.

00:02:59.880 --> 00:03:01.280
What's going down here, Frank?

00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:04.757
I gotta keep this under my hat, boys.

00:03:04.920 --> 00:03:06.274
Fat cats in hats!

00:03:06.440 --> 00:03:07.476
Them's the ones, pal.

00:03:07.640 --> 00:03:10.439
Let's catch a big score
and get fat ourselves.

00:03:10.600 --> 00:03:12.432
- Boss, we're not carrying.
- What?

00:03:12.600 --> 00:03:14.478
A piece. I don't have a piece.

00:03:14.640 --> 00:03:17.280
"A piece"? Say "gun," Gilbert.

00:03:17.440 --> 00:03:19.557
- Okay, I don't have a gun.
- That's what I count on.

00:03:19.760 --> 00:03:22.320
That's how I sleep at night,
you with no gun.

00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:24.952
I got a gun. You just show up.

00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:27.280
I wouldn't want you chuckleheads
coming up a staircase,

00:03:27.440 --> 00:03:28.794
with a hairpin and a harmonica.

00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:31.475
Hairy chin, harmony harp!
Quit windin' me up.

00:03:31.640 --> 00:03:33.233
With an unlit cigar and a chicken wing.

00:03:33.440 --> 00:03:34.616
- Right, Brooklyn?
- Chicky wing ding.

00:03:34.640 --> 00:03:35.960
I wing that chick in the ding.

00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.079
Come on, seriously. Don't throw me off.

00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.096
- Just give us the rest of it, all right?
- All right, all right.

00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:43.918
Now, if I say, "Let me use the can,"

00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:45.150
it means we're comin' out.

00:03:45.320 --> 00:03:47.789
Get Gil, get in the car,
get ready to follow.

00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:50.634
I might need to give someone the slip.
Got it?

00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:53.759
Yeah. "Problem," up the stairs.
"Use the can," start the car. Got it.

00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:55.474
Get, gotten, got, gotcha!

00:03:55.640 --> 00:03:57.160
Lionel's got it, just follow his lead.

00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:58.600
Come on, you gotta be kiddin' me.

00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:01.838
Coney, what did I say when I came
into the office last Tuesday?

00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:03.480
- What?
- Lionel?

00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.096
You hung up your coat,
you put your hat on the third hook,

00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:07.416
you said,
"I just saw a girl on the ferry,

00:04:07.440 --> 00:04:09.296
and the smile she gave me
is gonna get me through the winter."

00:04:09.320 --> 00:04:10.936
Then you threw your notebook to Danny,
and said,

00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:13.696
"How's a guy supposed to keep a marriage
together with 22 on the menu?"

00:04:13.720 --> 00:04:15.837
Like I said, Lionel's on point.

00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:21.800
Sit on it, Bailey!

00:04:21.840 --> 00:04:22.840
<i>Fuckin' Bailey.</i>

00:04:22.920 --> 00:04:23.920
If!

00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:25.832
<i>Bailey's what my head calls me.</i>

00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.231
<i>It calls me out
whenever I try to resist it.</i>

00:04:28.400 --> 00:04:29.880
<i>There's things that calm it down.</i>

00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:32.033
<i>Gum, weed.</i>

00:04:32.200 --> 00:04:34.795
<i>Sometimes, something a little stronger
if I'm in bad shape.</i>

00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:37.151
<i>But if I try to put a lid on it,
it gets worse.</i>

00:04:37.320 --> 00:04:39.039
<i>If I get nervous, it gets worse.</i>

00:04:39.200 --> 00:04:40.600
<i>If I get excited, it gets worse.</i>

00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:41.511
If!

00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:43.400
<i>It's the argument I can't win.</i>

00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:44.510
Hey!

00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:47.515
Another Minna classic.

00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:49.837
Freezin' our asses off.
Don't even know the score.

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:51.296
What, you have big plans
this weekend, Coney?

00:04:51.320 --> 00:04:52.151
Yeah, maybe.

00:04:52.320 --> 00:04:54.516
- Hot date?
- Maybe. Maybe I do.

00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:55.875
Coney Island!

00:04:56.200 --> 00:04:57.873
Coney Island hot dogs!

00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:00.176
- Coney Island hot dogs right here!
- All right, Freakshow,

00:05:00.200 --> 00:05:02.200
just a little quieter, please.

00:05:05.400 --> 00:05:06.754
That's it. We're on.
Be ready.

00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:25.376
- Hey.
<i>- Hey, boss.</i>

00:05:25.400 --> 00:05:27.073
Bossy, bossy bitch!

00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:28.736
<i>You keeping it together,
Brooklyn?</i>

00:05:28.760 --> 00:05:30.672
No, no, no. I got my gum.

00:05:30.760 --> 00:05:32.400
I'll keep it under control
when it counts.

00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:34.592
Like we said,
stay tuned in, pal.

00:05:34.760 --> 00:05:36.256
I might need that head of yours later.

00:05:36.280 --> 00:05:37.840
<i>Yeah, I got you covered, boss.</i>

00:05:37.920 --> 00:05:39.434
I know you do.

00:05:44.760 --> 00:05:47.229
Hey, I think your friends are here.

00:05:47.400 --> 00:05:48.520
<i>All right, how many?</i>

00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:50.841
<i>There's two walkin'
up the block, two out the car.</i>

00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:53.752
<i>- You see 'em?</i>
- Yeah, I see 'em.

00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:56.995
Jesus Christ,
look at the size of that guy.

00:05:57.760 --> 00:05:59.717
They got,
they got serious muscle with them.

00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:00.995
Is everything cool, boss?

00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:04.119
Cool as can be.
Just a little chat.

00:06:07.960 --> 00:06:10.680
<i>"Here lies Frank Minna.
Cool as can be."</i>

00:06:10.840 --> 00:06:11.671
<i>They'll carve that</i>

00:06:11.760 --> 00:06:13.320
<i>on his fuckin' tombstone.</i>

00:06:13.440 --> 00:06:16.956
<i>I don't know if it was growin' up
in Greenpoint or fightin' the Japanese,</i>

00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:19.635
<i>but he was cool under pressure
in a way you can't teach.</i>

00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:20.720
<i>I was just happy</i>

00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:22.216
<i>to have a job on his team.</i>

00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:23.240
<i>And if there's one thing</i>

00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:25.120
<i>my pain-in-the-ass brain
does know how to do,</i>

00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:26.760
<i>it's listen and remember things.</i>

00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:34.196
Gentlemen, thanks for coming.

00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:35.191
Drink?

00:06:35.280 --> 00:06:36.296
We're not gonna be here that long.

00:06:36.320 --> 00:06:37.470
Now explain this crap.

00:06:37.640 --> 00:06:38.816
Which part
didn't you understand?

00:06:38.840 --> 00:06:40.976
<i>How about the part where you
got the idea to go poking around</i>

00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:42.136
<i>after some colored broad, for starters?</i>

00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:43.296
<i>She works for the committee.</i>

00:06:43.320 --> 00:06:45.039
She's a fuckin' secretary.

00:06:45.280 --> 00:06:46.953
We told you to dig in on Horowitz,

00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:48.416
find something
we can shut them down with.

00:06:48.440 --> 00:06:49.715
There's nothing there, Lou.

00:06:49.880 --> 00:06:51.656
<i>You wanna know
what's goin' on in that report,</i>

00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:54.441
<i>that "colored broad" is doing
most of the legwork on Hamilton for 'em.</i>

00:06:54.520 --> 00:06:56.318
So I put some time into that, too.

00:06:56.520 --> 00:06:57.856
You looked
in some funny places.

00:06:57.880 --> 00:07:00.679
What can I tell ya? I'm a snoop.
It's what I do.

00:07:00.840 --> 00:07:03.136
- It's called being thorough.
- It's called wasting our time.

00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:04.514
This is fucking Chinese, Frank!

00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:06.776
If you need a roadmap to wipe your ass,
I can't help you, Lou.

00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:08.416
Walk us
through it, Mr. Minna,

00:07:08.440 --> 00:07:09.999
just to be sure we're very clear.

00:07:10.200 --> 00:07:11.714
It's right there in ink.

00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:25.680
<i>Anybody else like
to offer a different interpretation?</i>

00:07:25.880 --> 00:07:27.016
<i>None of this can be proved.</i>

00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:28.176
<i>That signature is the real deal.</i>

00:07:28.200 --> 00:07:29.336
If you knew the man,

00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:31.158
you'd know why that seems
highly implausible.

00:07:31.320 --> 00:07:34.040
I checked it against the others.
That is his John Hancock.

00:07:34.200 --> 00:07:35.600
And the paper trail backs it up.

00:07:35.760 --> 00:07:36.591
Think Horowitz
knows all of this?

00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:37.477
No.

00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:39.353
<i>Or you'd already be eating shit.</i>

00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:41.056
<i>It'd have been in the paper
the next day.</i>

00:07:41.080 --> 00:07:42.912
<i>The girl, she married?
Got family?</i>

00:07:43.080 --> 00:07:43.957
<i>It's all in my file.</i>

00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:45.679
<i>Her mother's dead.
No brother or sisters.</i>

00:07:45.840 --> 00:07:48.355
- What about her father?
- Father's a busted-up vet.

00:07:48.520 --> 00:07:50.591
He runs a jazz club up here.
He drinks too much.

00:07:51.280 --> 00:07:52.600
<i>Mr. Minna,</i>

00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:55.400
<i>I'll assume you're aware
of what occurs a week from Thursday?</i>

00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:56.560
<i>I am.</i>

00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:58.496
So then, you understand
our firm determination

00:07:58.520 --> 00:08:00.910
to keep such information
out of the hands of our detractors?

00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:02.576
<i>Sure,
it's the nature of the game.</i>

00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:04.080
<i>But these are all photos.</i>

00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:06.040
May I hope you're in possession
of the originals?

00:08:06.080 --> 00:08:07.640
- I am.
- Excellent.

00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:09.480
Well, we'll need to get those from you.

00:08:09.520 --> 00:08:10.874
I figured as much.

00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:12.759
I thought we could talk about terms.

00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:14.560
What the fuck
are you talkin' about?

00:08:16.200 --> 00:08:17.395
Have you lost your mind?

00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:18.896
Let's not
kid each other, fellas.

00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:21.640
You got the biggest gravy train
of the century pulling out.

00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:23.757
I'm just asking for a seat
here in the rear.

00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:25.056
That's quite impossible.

00:08:25.080 --> 00:08:27.072
I'd double this at any paper in town.

00:08:29.440 --> 00:08:31.056
I'm gonna pretend
you didn't say what you just said,

00:08:31.080 --> 00:08:31.911
and we're gonna get...

00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:33.256
<i>It's just an observation.</i>

00:08:33.280 --> 00:08:34.430
<i>I'm here in good faith.</i>

00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:36.256
<i>- Just assessing value...
- You can forget it!</i>

00:08:36.280 --> 00:08:39.876
Jeez, Lou. What is your beef
with a guy gettin' paid for good work?

00:08:40.080 --> 00:08:42.480
As far as I can see,
you get paid for doin' nothing.

00:08:42.760 --> 00:08:44.536
- <i>Watch your mouth.
- Jesus, take it easy.</i>

00:08:44.560 --> 00:08:45.880
- Shit.
<i>- Open up your coat.</i>

00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:47.314
- What?
- Are you carryin'?

00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:48.640
You bring a gun to a meeting?

00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:50.096
- I had it since the war, Lou...
- What the fuck?

00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:51.920
Listen, motherfucker,
I'm gonna have my friend

00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:54.560
<i>- shove that right up your ass.
- Enough. Lou, a word.</i>

00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:01.074
Oh, come on, fellas, don't get
in a twist. It's just business.

00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:03.920
Mr. Minna, we do appreciate
the service you've rendered.

00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:06.953
And these gentlemen
will take you to get the originals,

00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:09.999
and if all is in order, we'll arrange
an appropriate resolution for you.

00:09:10.160 --> 00:09:12.834
<i>Of course.
Like I say, good faith.</i>

00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:14.798
<i>Just let me use the can first.</i>

00:09:16.920 --> 00:09:19.151
Come on, come on!
Come on, come on!

00:09:20.760 --> 00:09:22.035
Shithead hitter!

00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:23.456
- Hit him in the shitter!
- What happened?

00:09:23.480 --> 00:09:24.776
They hit him. They hit him.
I think that they hit him.

00:09:24.800 --> 00:09:26.616
Well, Jesus, Freakshow,
what are we doing here?

00:09:26.640 --> 00:09:27.776
No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait.

00:09:27.800 --> 00:09:29.760
He said, "Use the can."
He wants us to follow him.

00:09:29.800 --> 00:09:32.269
Can the man!
Can the loose man!

00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:39.039
And this fucking guy.

00:09:41.680 --> 00:09:43.512
- I don't like it.
- Me, neither. Let's go.

00:09:44.240 --> 00:09:45.833
Shit!

00:09:53.680 --> 00:09:55.000
No, no. No.

00:09:56.040 --> 00:09:57.599
Shit. We gotta go, we gotta go!

00:09:58.320 --> 00:09:59.549
Come on, come on, come on!

00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:01.839
Go, go, go! Fire it up!

00:10:02.000 --> 00:10:02.877
Fire it up, come on!

00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:05.880
This fucking guy!

00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:08.037
Eat me, Mr. Dickey Weed!

00:10:08.400 --> 00:10:10.357
Eat me, Mr. Dickey Weed!

00:10:12.640 --> 00:10:13.835
Come on.

00:10:15.040 --> 00:10:17.509
Left, left, left.
Lick me, Loose Lucy!

00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:25.496
There, there, there.
That's them. That's them.

00:10:25.520 --> 00:10:27.200
Don't blow past them,
don't blow past them.

00:10:27.280 --> 00:10:28.760
Slow down, slow down.

00:10:30.760 --> 00:10:32.320
Watch out! Watch out!

00:10:33.520 --> 00:10:34.520
Shit!

00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:38.354
You fuckin' blind?

00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:53.112
- The fuck?
- How'd we lose them?

00:10:53.560 --> 00:10:55.438
There, there! There!

00:11:01.920 --> 00:11:02.956
Where's he goin'?

00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:04.920
The ramp, he's goin' to Queens.
Queenie Coney.

00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:07.231
Queenie Coney. Queenie Coney.

00:11:08.280 --> 00:11:09.720
In the right lane. Get to the right.

00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:11.435
Where the fuck are they?

00:11:18.920 --> 00:11:21.389
Son of a bitch, that's them!
Come on, we're gonna lose them.

00:11:21.880 --> 00:11:22.880
Come on!

00:11:23.040 --> 00:11:25.600
- Quacker, quoter, quarter!
- What?

00:11:25.760 --> 00:11:27.576
Quarter! You need a quarter!
Get a fuckin' quarter out, Coney!

00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:29.319
Why didn't you say something?

00:11:30.280 --> 00:11:32.476
Go, go, go! Go, go!

00:11:46.800 --> 00:11:48.280
There, there, there.
Go left, go left.

00:11:50.640 --> 00:11:51.994
They gotta be somewhere.

00:11:52.160 --> 00:11:55.073
I'd say they're somewhere, Gil, yes.
Where?

00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:03.994
Stop, go back! Go back!

00:12:04.200 --> 00:12:05.200
Jesus!

00:12:14.280 --> 00:12:16.158
Shit! Drop it! We gotta get out of here!

00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:17.754
Come on, let's go! Let's go!

00:12:18.160 --> 00:12:19.160
God damn it.

00:12:22.640 --> 00:12:23.676
Frank!

00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:25.436
Pull it up!

00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:32.120
- You wanna help me out here, please?
- Yeah.

00:12:32.160 --> 00:12:33.160
Shit!

00:12:34.160 --> 00:12:35.674
- Can you stand?
- Yeah.

00:12:39.680 --> 00:12:41.797
Coney, you lug wrench,
get my hat!

00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:42.960
Forget the hat, Frank.

00:12:43.040 --> 00:12:44.394
Get my hat, you fucking mook.

00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:47.840
Get my gun, too.

00:12:53.880 --> 00:12:55.536
- Where the hell are you going?
- I don't know around here.

00:12:55.560 --> 00:12:56.560
Give me something.

00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:58.896
Well, head for the hospital. Jesus!
Hospitable herpetologist!

00:12:58.920 --> 00:13:02.038
Mercy Hospital.
Up McGuinness, you cabbageheads!

00:13:03.640 --> 00:13:05.199
- Aah. Sorry.
- Pay attention!

00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:07.039
- If, if!
- Easy, pal.

00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:08.395
Sorry. Sorry.

00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:11.195
Put my watch and my wallet
in my hat and leave it in the car.

00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:12.536
Don't want anybody stealin' it.

00:13:12.560 --> 00:13:13.676
The fuck happened, Frank?

00:13:13.760 --> 00:13:15.856
I took 'em on a wild goose chase
and I tried to slip 'em.

00:13:15.880 --> 00:13:17.160
We should have jumped in sooner.

00:13:17.240 --> 00:13:18.416
I thought you were signaling me off.

00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:20.432
No, not your fault.
I almost made it.

00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:22.000
I forgot they had my gun.

00:13:22.160 --> 00:13:24.720
Got through Guadalcanal
without a scratch,

00:13:24.800 --> 00:13:27.360
and I get shot with my own gun
in Queens.

00:13:27.520 --> 00:13:28.715
You gonna be okay?

00:13:28.880 --> 00:13:30.536
Yeah, yeah. They clipped me in the side,
but nothin' important.

00:13:30.560 --> 00:13:32.836
- Who? Who were they?
- Well, don't worry about it.

00:13:33.040 --> 00:13:34.997
Talk to me, Brooklyn.
I need one of your jokes.

00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:35.877
What?

00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:36.797
I need a joke.
Just tell me a joke.

00:13:36.920 --> 00:13:39.674
Guy walks into a bar.
Guy walks into a bar with an octopus,

00:13:39.880 --> 00:13:42.256
and he says, "I'll bet 50 this octopus
can play any instrument in the joint."

00:13:42.280 --> 00:13:43.430
Funny. Already in the black.

00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:44.795
I'm gonna fucking...

00:13:44.960 --> 00:13:47.111
- Fuck! Shit!
- Don't blow the punchline, Lionel.

00:13:47.720 --> 00:13:49.520
Watch out! Watch out!

00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:51.280
Jesus, what are we doing here?

00:13:51.760 --> 00:13:52.876
Almost there.

00:13:59.400 --> 00:14:00.736
What do you think you're doing?
Get this car out of...

00:14:00.760 --> 00:14:03.320
We're an ambulance today, pal.
Get someone!

00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:08.791
What do we got?

00:14:08.960 --> 00:14:11.241
Gunshot in the back.
Went out through the stomach.

00:14:14.800 --> 00:14:17.269
Hey, hey.
Okay, they're gonna fix you up.

00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:20.159
Squeeze my hand.
Squeeze my hand.

00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:21.117
Clamp.

00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:22.554
Stay with me, okay? Stay with me.

00:14:22.640 --> 00:14:25.314
Oh, shit, Brooklyn,
she's in trouble now.

00:14:25.480 --> 00:14:26.936
Who? Who was that in that room, boss?

00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:27.960
Played out of my league.

00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:30.271
I should have kept her under my...

00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:32.616
Easy, easy. They're gonna
give you something now, right?

00:14:32.640 --> 00:14:33.656
Hand me two units.

00:14:33.680 --> 00:14:34.796
Morphine in.

00:14:35.280 --> 00:14:37.636
- Hey, Brooklyn...
- Yeah, I'm here, Frank.

00:14:37.800 --> 00:14:39.792
You're no freak.

00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:42.116
Yeah, okay.

00:14:42.280 --> 00:14:43.794
Stay with me, okay?
Stay with me.

00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:46.111
You were working for those guys.
Who were they?

00:14:48.920 --> 00:14:51.594
- For... Formosa...
- Formosa? What is that?

00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:54.477
Formosa...

00:14:55.800 --> 00:14:57.256
- I don't have a pulse.
- Move!

00:14:57.280 --> 00:14:58.736
- You can't be here.
- Get out!

00:14:58.760 --> 00:15:01.514
Get out. Get out! Get out!

00:15:12.000 --> 00:15:13.360
<i>A guy walks into a bar...</i>

00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:14.834
A guy walks into a bar...

00:15:15.320 --> 00:15:16.720
A guy walks into a bar...

00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:19.656
- A guy walks into a bar...
- We did the best we could.

00:15:19.680 --> 00:15:21.096
- A guy walks into a bar...
- He lost too much...

00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:22.156
Too much blood.

00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:23.560
He didn't make it.

00:15:24.160 --> 00:15:26.311
- I am so sorry.
- So sorry, Bailey!

00:15:26.880 --> 00:15:28.519
So sorry, Bailey!

00:15:31.680 --> 00:15:35.356
Frankly Frankady Franko!

00:15:35.800 --> 00:15:39.510
Frankly Frankady Franko!

00:15:40.520 --> 00:15:41.670
Frankly Frankady Franko!

00:15:45.720 --> 00:15:48.600
Then he said he would take 'em to get
this thing and that was our signal.

00:15:48.640 --> 00:15:50.216
So, he's takin' them to get somethin'
that they want, and they off him.

00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:51.071
That doesn't track.

00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:52.936
No, I don't know. It was...
It all happened so fast.

00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:54.519
And we were just catchin' up.

00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:55.870
We barely saw 'em.

00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:57.216
How the fuck did you drop
so far off them?

00:15:57.240 --> 00:15:59.152
I told you, we lost them at the bridge.

00:15:59.320 --> 00:16:01.856
They had a badge. They got waved
through. There was nothin' we could do.

00:16:01.880 --> 00:16:03.758
Freakshow's right. It was a mess.

00:16:03.920 --> 00:16:05.354
So, who were they?

00:16:05.520 --> 00:16:07.398
He wouldn't say.
Even after, in the car.

00:16:07.560 --> 00:16:09.756
That's great, Frank!

00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:13.352
If, if, if!

00:16:16.560 --> 00:16:17.880
We gotta tell Julia.

00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:19.510
I told her already.

00:16:19.880 --> 00:16:20.880
When?

00:16:21.400 --> 00:16:23.437
She called looking for him.

00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:26.236
How'd she take it?
Timbuk-take it!

00:16:26.400 --> 00:16:28.200
How the fuck you think
she took it, Freakshow?

00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:29.913
Hey! Don't say that again!

00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:31.200
I'm not in the fuckin' mood.

00:16:31.280 --> 00:16:32.794
Yeah, all right, take it easy.

00:16:33.920 --> 00:16:35.240
I'm just sayin'...

00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:38.719
We all know how she can be.

00:16:40.280 --> 00:16:43.079
Somebody's gotta take her his things.

00:16:47.880 --> 00:16:49.030
I'll do it.

00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:03.390
Hey.

00:17:04.320 --> 00:17:05.754
Take his, huh?

00:17:06.600 --> 00:17:08.637
You can't go out lookin' like that.

00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:13.149
It's freezin'.

00:17:16.120 --> 00:17:18.476
- Thank you.
- You sure you wanna do this?

00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:21.435
Maybe she'll wanna know
what happened at the end, you know?

00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:29.479
He say anything about her?

00:17:31.240 --> 00:17:32.276
No.

00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:35.312
Help him out one last time.

00:17:36.280 --> 00:17:37.634
Lie a little.

00:17:46.800 --> 00:17:47.631
Oh.

00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:49.200
- Lionel.
- Hey, Julia, I...

00:17:49.360 --> 00:17:51.511
Yeah, don't bother.
The hospital already called.

00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:54.516
No, I got some of Frank's things
that I brought.

00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:55.991
Oh.

00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:58.311
I thought you were gonna break the news
to me again.

00:18:02.560 --> 00:18:03.835
Jeez, Julia, I'm...

00:18:04.680 --> 00:18:06.558
- I'm really sorry.
- Nice twist, huh?

00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:09.838
Didn't see that one coming,
I gotta say.

00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:11.673
Twisty, twitchy, twinky!

00:18:11.760 --> 00:18:12.591
Shit.

00:18:12.760 --> 00:18:14.672
Look, I just want to be alone, okay?

00:18:14.840 --> 00:18:16.240
Sure, sure. Yeah.

00:18:17.520 --> 00:18:20.991
You can give me that watch, I guess.
I don't want the rest of that stuff.

00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:22.998
I'm gonna keep his gun, if that's okay.

00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:25.032
- You want the hat?
- For what?

00:18:34.280 --> 00:18:35.280
You should have that.

00:18:41.360 --> 00:18:43.716
Was somebody with him when he...

00:18:43.880 --> 00:18:45.234
Yeah, I was.

00:18:47.080 --> 00:18:48.080
Uh...

00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:50.431
He was talkin' about you, you know?

00:18:50.600 --> 00:18:53.752
Yeah, don't bullshit me, okay?
I'm pissed at him.

00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:55.718
- No, don't be.
- Okay, well, I am.

00:18:56.120 --> 00:18:57.120
Pissing bitch!

00:18:58.320 --> 00:18:59.320
I'm sorry.

00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:00.880
Julia,

00:19:01.720 --> 00:19:05.475
did Frank say anything about who he was
meeting today, or what he was into?

00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:06.960
No, he didn't. No.

00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:08.879
You got no idea who did this?

00:19:09.080 --> 00:19:11.595
No. If I figure it out, I'm gonna
make 'em regret it, though.

00:19:11.760 --> 00:19:12.910
I promise you that.

00:19:13.240 --> 00:19:14.640
Don't promise me.

00:19:14.840 --> 00:19:17.071
It makes no difference
to me one way or the other.

00:19:32.760 --> 00:19:33.760
If!

00:19:39.360 --> 00:19:40.360
If!

00:20:12.040 --> 00:20:13.040
If!

00:20:17.120 --> 00:20:18.120
If!

00:20:24.320 --> 00:20:25.320
If!

00:20:29.080 --> 00:20:30.080
If!

00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:36.400
If!

00:21:51.720 --> 00:21:52.756
Here you go, sir.

00:22:08.560 --> 00:22:11.160
- Let 'em in, Charlie.
- All right, gentlemen. Come on in.

00:22:12.920 --> 00:22:14.957
Watch your step.
It might be a little bit slippery.

00:22:15.120 --> 00:22:16.190
<i>I humbly accept</i>

00:22:16.280 --> 00:22:19.273

00:22:29.760 --> 00:22:32.594
we will build the legacy of our time.

00:22:32.760 --> 00:22:35.912
A legacy for future generations
to look upon,

00:22:36.120 --> 00:22:38.112
and say, "Here was boldness.

00:22:38.280 --> 00:22:42.593
Here is the greatest
of what man can create."

00:22:44.320 --> 00:22:46.789
God bless you. Thank you.

00:22:47.360 --> 00:22:50.319
Thank you, my fellow New Yorkers!
Thank you!

00:22:51.280 --> 00:22:53.431
Do you solemnly swear to serve
the people of New York,

00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:57.680
and uphold the integrity of the office
of Deputy Mayor of Community Relations?

00:22:57.840 --> 00:22:58.840
I do.

00:23:05.200 --> 00:23:06.031
Ah.

00:23:06.120 --> 00:23:07.315
Mo. Splendid.

Do you solemnly swear to serve

00:23:10.520 --> 00:23:13.296
and uphold the integrity of the office
of Commissioner of the City's Parks?

00:23:13.320 --> 00:23:14.320
I do.

00:23:16.480 --> 00:23:18.836
Do you solemnly swear to serve

I do.

00:23:24.320 --> 00:23:27.040
Good to have you aboard, Mo.
Keep up the good work.

00:23:30.080 --> 00:23:31.912
Well, I'll be damned, he did it.

00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:33.550
I told you.

00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:35.678
He's no pushover, this one.

00:23:35.840 --> 00:23:38.833
Ladies and gentlemen,
your New York City commissioner.

00:23:40.840 --> 00:23:43.196
10 bucks it won't last past noon.

00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:48.038
Mr. Mayor! Mr. Mayor!

00:23:48.200 --> 00:23:49.236
This way.

00:23:55.280 --> 00:23:57.112
And after all that, he voted for

00:23:57.200 --> 00:23:59.032
the wrong guy
in three different precincts.

00:24:01.080 --> 00:24:02.719
What is this shit?

00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:04.513
What about City Planning?

00:24:04.920 --> 00:24:06.673
See here now, Mo.
What is all this?

00:24:06.880 --> 00:24:08.536
Don't you play games with me,
you fuckin' mutt.

00:24:08.560 --> 00:24:11.792
Either I get City Planning
or I quit the other two. Right now!

00:24:12.080 --> 00:24:13.719
The reporters are still here.

00:24:13.880 --> 00:24:16.440
Easy now, it's nothing to get hot about.

00:24:16.640 --> 00:24:18.233
It's probably just an oversight.

00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:20.280
They forgot to give me the blank.

00:24:20.440 --> 00:24:23.478
Just give us a day to get settled in,
and I'll see to it.

00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:41.720
Now sign it.

00:24:51.120 --> 00:24:52.270
Now give me.

00:24:57.960 --> 00:24:58.960
Right.

00:24:59.280 --> 00:25:01.431
Bunch of fuckin' amateurs.

00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:07.155
Close the damn door and keep it closed!

00:25:07.320 --> 00:25:08.976
<i>City sports authority reports new life</i>

00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:11.834

<i>All these wide-necked apes,

00:25:36.480 --> 00:25:38.278
and I told them, "Christ, he's dead.

00:25:38.440 --> 00:25:39.954
What, are you gonna arrest him?"

00:25:40.120 --> 00:25:42.271
Fuck you been? Called you all morning.

00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:43.669
What the hell happened here?

00:25:43.840 --> 00:25:46.639
Danny had an early run out to Belmont,
came in, it was like this.

00:25:46.800 --> 00:25:49.360
Cops were at Frank's place, too,
going through everything.

00:25:49.520 --> 00:25:50.520
If!

00:25:50.560 --> 00:25:51.776
They were going through
my underwear drawer,

00:25:51.800 --> 00:25:53.616
and they were grinnin' at me while they
were going through my underwear drawer.

00:25:53.640 --> 00:25:55.776
We're gonna find out who did this,
get to the bottom of it. Right, boys?

00:25:55.800 --> 00:25:57.234
I don't even want to know.

00:25:57.400 --> 00:25:59.471
Always with this cryptic shit,

00:25:59.640 --> 00:26:01.871
telling me he's into something big
this time,

00:26:02.080 --> 00:26:04.993
and that he's gonna
change our situation,

00:26:05.160 --> 00:26:07.311
and then he goes and gets whacked,

00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:10.791
and leaves me $4,000
in a savings and loan

00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:14.391
and a drafty shithole at Lookout Point,

00:26:14.560 --> 00:26:17.553
and this thriving operation!

00:26:17.840 --> 00:26:20.071
The fuck am I supposed to do with this?

00:26:24.880 --> 00:26:27.156
Look, the way I see it,

00:26:27.320 --> 00:26:29.755
you guys work for me now.

00:26:29.920 --> 00:26:32.515
I know you all go way back with him,
longer than me,

00:26:32.680 --> 00:26:34.433
but that's just the way it is for now.

00:26:34.600 --> 00:26:36.557
I know the car service
was mainly for the books,

00:26:36.720 --> 00:26:40.509
but we didn't talk much
about how he ran the snoop work.

00:26:40.680 --> 00:26:42.399
And I ain't interested.

00:26:42.680 --> 00:26:45.673
So, I'm puttin' Tony in charge.

00:26:45.840 --> 00:26:47.479
He's gonna run the business of it,

00:26:47.560 --> 00:26:49.517
and then he'll keep me
in the loop. Right?

00:26:49.680 --> 00:26:52.036
Sure, doll. It's the right thing.

00:26:52.280 --> 00:26:53.280
Sure.

00:26:54.040 --> 00:26:55.599
You want me to walk you home?

00:26:55.800 --> 00:26:57.029
No, thanks.

00:26:57.760 --> 00:27:00.195
I'm gonna go stay with my sister
for a little bit.

00:27:00.800 --> 00:27:02.712
I have to go figure out my future.

00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:05.556
But give me a call. Okay?

00:27:06.560 --> 00:27:08.119
You know, for an update?

00:27:12.400 --> 00:27:13.880
- Hey, Julia.
- Hey, Lionel.

00:27:14.600 --> 00:27:15.875
Can't you ever cut that out?

00:27:16.040 --> 00:27:17.759
I'm so... Touch it, Bailey! I'm sorry.

00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:18.956
For once?

00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:20.240
If!

00:27:20.880 --> 00:27:22.234
- I'm...
- Jesus.

00:27:24.880 --> 00:27:25.880
What?

00:27:27.920 --> 00:27:30.560
Fuckin' assholes even took the tank
off the john.

00:27:33.920 --> 00:27:35.296
All right, forget that, do it later.

00:27:35.320 --> 00:27:37.232
Right now, just the four of us...

00:27:37.400 --> 00:27:39.200
Does anybody know
what Frank was into on this?

00:27:39.320 --> 00:27:40.834
He just said to meet him for a sit.

00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:42.536
He didn't even make it
like it was a big thing.

00:27:42.560 --> 00:27:44.120
- He was nervous, though.
- Nervous how?

00:27:44.240 --> 00:27:46.216
- He wasn't nervous.
- Were you on that line, dumb shit?

00:27:46.240 --> 00:27:48.600
I'm telling you, I heard it,
he was nervous. Nervous Nellie!

00:27:49.160 --> 00:27:51.914
It was in his voice. He was trying to
make a play on those guys.

00:27:52.080 --> 00:27:54.416
There's somethin' goin' down
a week from Thursday that's big.

00:27:54.440 --> 00:27:56.056
And they were not happy
about what he found.

00:27:56.080 --> 00:27:57.594
Obviously. They whacked him for it.

00:27:57.760 --> 00:27:58.955
Crack whacker!

00:27:59.120 --> 00:28:01.401
No, I don't think they meant to.
I think it was a mistake.

00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:03.056
When they shot him,
I think they fucked up,

00:28:03.080 --> 00:28:04.800
now they're stuck looking
for what he found.

00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:06.752
Big fuckin' riddle. Jesus H.

00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:09.354
All right, I'm gonna say this.

00:28:10.800 --> 00:28:12.120
I loved the guy.

00:28:13.040 --> 00:28:14.793
And when we were
in that fuckin' hellhole,

00:28:14.920 --> 00:28:16.115
he saw somethin' in us

00:28:16.280 --> 00:28:18.033
threw us a line,
taught us how to operate,

00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:19.576
but he never cut us in all the way.

00:28:19.600 --> 00:28:21.159
And he played his own games.

00:28:21.320 --> 00:28:23.176
And I'm not stickin' my nose around
his dead cards,

00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:25.271
risk ending up on a slab for it.

00:28:28.160 --> 00:28:31.471
I say we got a lot of bills to pay,
and we ought to just get at it.

00:28:31.640 --> 00:28:32.776
You owe him more than that, T.

00:28:32.800 --> 00:28:36.032
Yeah, well, you figure out what the fuck
it was all about, you let us know.

00:28:36.800 --> 00:28:39.554
All right? Meantime, I gotta finish up
on the rabbi's wife.

00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:41.673
She's banging a butcher
who ain't kosher,

00:28:41.840 --> 00:28:43.536
and I think he's really gonna
give her the boot this time,

00:28:43.560 --> 00:28:45.200
and that's gonna be
the last of that ride.

00:28:45.360 --> 00:28:47.875
I want Gil sitting on
that Gunderson fraud thing.

00:28:48.080 --> 00:28:50.151
- I'm on Gunderson.
- Yeah, well, I want Gil on it!

00:28:50.320 --> 00:28:52.630
- Why?
- Because when we make that bust,

00:28:52.800 --> 00:28:54.896
the insurance company's gonna want us
to go down there,

00:28:54.920 --> 00:28:57.456
show the pictures to his lawyer,
and I wanna make a good impression.

00:28:57.480 --> 00:28:58.696
Okay? Frank ain't here
to cover for you anymore.

00:28:58.720 --> 00:29:00.040
- Fraud fag!
- Like I said,

00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:00.991
Gil's on it.

00:29:01.160 --> 00:29:02.320
Danny will back me on nights,

00:29:02.400 --> 00:29:04.240
and, Lionel, you pick up
the car slack for him,

00:29:04.320 --> 00:29:05.834
just until something new comes in.

00:29:07.360 --> 00:29:08.776
It's cold.
We're gonna have a lot of calls,

00:29:08.800 --> 00:29:10.678
and we need that business. Fuck!

00:29:10.840 --> 00:29:12.513
Now, come on, let's clean up.

00:29:16.080 --> 00:29:17.992
<i>Tony, and Coney,
and Danny, and me,</i>

00:29:18.760 --> 00:29:19.876
<i>before we were Minna's men,</i>

00:29:20.040 --> 00:29:22.680
<i>we were just dead-end kids
at the Catholic orphanage.</i>

00:29:22.800 --> 00:29:25.838
Invest-ahead!

00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:28.993
<i>I was worse in there.
A total freakshow.</i>

00:29:29.440 --> 00:29:31.193
<i>No one knew what to do with it.</i>

00:29:32.280 --> 00:29:33.396
L&amp;L.

00:29:34.360 --> 00:29:36.750
Yeah, we have cars available.
Where would you like to go?

00:29:36.960 --> 00:29:38.960
<i>The nuns thought
they were gonna beat it out of me.</i>

00:29:39.080 --> 00:29:40.355
<i>One of 'em in particular.</i>

00:29:40.520 --> 00:29:42.936
<i>Till Tony grabbed the paddle from her
and said if she hit me again,</i>

00:29:42.960 --> 00:29:45.270
<i>he was gonna
give it to her twice as hard.</i>

00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:47.680
<i>Coney and Danny were standing behind him
when he said it,</i>

00:29:47.720 --> 00:29:49.120
<i>and she knew they weren't bluffin'.</i>

00:29:49.240 --> 00:29:51.596
<i>After that, I was in their crew.</i>

00:29:57.560 --> 00:29:58.560
If!

00:30:12.080 --> 00:30:13.560
- L&amp;L.
<i>- Who am I speaking to?</i>

00:30:14.080 --> 00:30:15.719
Ass-rog!

00:30:16.240 --> 00:30:18.550
This is Lionel Essrog.
I'm associate...

00:30:18.920 --> 00:30:20.040
Hello?

00:30:29.560 --> 00:30:30.960
Formosa.

00:30:31.800 --> 00:30:33.075
Formosa.

00:30:35.960 --> 00:30:37.440
<i>Frank was just from the neighborhood.</i>

00:30:37.600 --> 00:30:38.600
<i>He was smart.</i>

00:30:38.760 --> 00:30:41.832
<i>Everybody knew he was goin' places.
Everybody liked him.</i>

00:30:41.920 --> 00:30:43.320
For my ass, Bailey!

00:30:43.920 --> 00:30:45.456
<i>He was friends with one of the priests,</i>

00:30:45.480 --> 00:30:47.437
<i>and he heard
I had a thing for remembering.</i>

00:30:48.080 --> 00:30:50.197
<i>Numbers and words and things,</i>

00:30:50.360 --> 00:30:51.919
<i>and he had uses for that.</i>

00:30:52.840 --> 00:30:54.760
<i>He was the one that taught me
how to use my head,</i>

00:30:55.440 --> 00:30:57.159
<i>get it under control,
make it work for me.</i>

00:30:59.000 --> 00:31:01.435
<i>He took all of us
under his wing, eventually.</i>

00:31:01.600 --> 00:31:03.956
<i>Gave us a place in this shitty world.</i>

00:31:21.800 --> 00:31:22.800
- Lionel?
- If!

00:31:23.360 --> 00:31:24.953
Oh, Jesus Christ!

00:31:25.120 --> 00:31:26.320
You scared the hell out of me.

00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:28.616
I thought I was lookin' at a ghost.
What are you doin'?

00:31:28.640 --> 00:31:29.960
Spinnin'.

00:31:30.120 --> 00:31:32.157
- You back already?
- Nah, I'm on a round trip.

00:31:32.320 --> 00:31:33.674
I gotta go back soon.

00:31:34.320 --> 00:31:35.356
You okay?

00:31:36.160 --> 00:31:38.356
I should have never let him
get in that car.

00:31:39.160 --> 00:31:40.640
I think I blew it, Danny.

00:31:40.800 --> 00:31:42.792
I had a sergeant once in the Bulge.

00:31:43.000 --> 00:31:45.469
Told me, "Sometimes you do
everything you're supposed to,

00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:47.518
and it all still goes to shit."

00:31:47.600 --> 00:31:48.600
Hmm?

00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:50.400
It ain't on you, bud.

00:31:50.560 --> 00:31:51.835
Thanks, D.

00:31:52.480 --> 00:31:53.516
Any calls?

00:31:54.480 --> 00:31:55.675
Yeah. Oh, shit!

00:31:57.400 --> 00:31:58.400
I gotta go.

00:31:58.600 --> 00:31:59.750
I got a 2:30.

00:32:01.200 --> 00:32:02.236
Hey,

00:32:02.880 --> 00:32:05.349
did you ever hear Frank mention
anything about "Formosa"?

00:32:05.520 --> 00:32:06.520
Like the Jap island?

00:32:06.680 --> 00:32:08.831
Nah. He was wounded and out before then.

00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:13.673
There is that joint, Formosa,
in, uh, Midtown.

00:32:14.200 --> 00:32:16.590
I took Linda there
to see Chet Baker once.

00:32:19.680 --> 00:32:21.176
<i>Frank didn't have to
cover for me.</i>

00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:25.114
<i>He just never put me into situations
that were gonna punch my buttons.</i>

00:32:25.200 --> 00:32:27.669
<i>Talkin' to people,
gettin' information out of 'em,</i>

00:32:27.880 --> 00:32:29.480
<i>that's the bread and butter of the trade</i>

00:32:29.520 --> 00:32:31.193
<i>but never my strong suit.</i>

00:32:31.360 --> 00:32:33.875
<i>Especially if a girl shows up in the mix</i>

00:32:34.040 --> 00:32:36.350
<i>and, in this line of work,
they usually do.</i>

00:32:36.520 --> 00:32:37.640
Music's at 7:00.

00:32:37.720 --> 00:32:39.712
Yeah, could I get an early one?
Whiskey, neat?

00:32:40.240 --> 00:32:42.072
- Irish?
- Sure.

00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:44.357
Say, are you in here regular?

00:32:44.560 --> 00:32:46.074
Most of my life.

00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:48.038
You ever seen this guy come in?

00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:50.032
Name's Frank Minna.

00:32:50.200 --> 00:32:51.200
Seen him around?

00:32:51.400 --> 00:32:53.073
Everybody looks like everybody to me,

00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:55.149
but I don't think so.

00:32:55.720 --> 00:32:56.870
She's good with faces.

00:32:58.400 --> 00:32:59.550
Seen that guy?

00:32:59.720 --> 00:33:01.074
- Friend of yours?
- Yeah.

00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:04.393
- Nice face.
- If!

00:33:06.160 --> 00:33:07.389
Nice yourself.

00:33:08.400 --> 00:33:09.629
You got a light?

00:33:17.400 --> 00:33:18.595
A tease.

00:33:22.120 --> 00:33:23.120
Sorry.

00:33:27.240 --> 00:33:29.072
Jesus. Forget I asked.

00:33:30.240 --> 00:33:32.675
- Ass-talk, Bailey!
- Classy!

00:33:33.680 --> 00:33:35.637
You got somethin' against blondes?

00:33:36.120 --> 00:33:39.272
It's gotta sound right
or I can't stop doing it.

00:33:40.160 --> 00:33:41.160
Must be inconvenient.

00:33:42.040 --> 00:33:44.680
Buddy, you don't know the half of it.

00:33:45.600 --> 00:33:47.432
That uptown shit's the real deal, huh?

00:33:47.600 --> 00:33:49.319
You get up there much?

00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:50.960
- Sorry?
- King Rooster.

00:33:51.120 --> 00:33:53.496
- I don't know it.
- Jazz joint in Harlem.

00:33:53.520 --> 00:33:54.616
Lucky's is a good time, too,

00:33:54.640 --> 00:33:56.560
but all the guys playing hard
are at the Rooster.

00:33:59.280 --> 00:34:00.350
Thanks a lot.

00:34:19.800 --> 00:34:21.000
We ain't open yet.

00:34:21.160 --> 00:34:22.958
Yeah, could I get an early one?
I'm freezin'.

00:34:25.640 --> 00:34:27.472
I'll take a whiskey, neat.
Keep it.

00:34:29.680 --> 00:34:31.353
Hey, you the manager?

00:34:31.520 --> 00:34:33.273
I look like the manager?

00:34:34.520 --> 00:34:35.520
Who's playin' tonight?

00:34:35.680 --> 00:34:38.149
Hey, Billy, who's on tonight?

00:34:38.320 --> 00:34:39.356
Mr. Bigshot.

00:34:39.520 --> 00:34:41.456
I hope they don't think
they drinkin' free.

00:34:41.480 --> 00:34:42.696
Well, you know they do.

00:34:42.720 --> 00:34:45.001
You know who's gonna say
somethin' about that.

00:34:45.160 --> 00:34:46.160
You caught this cat?

00:34:47.320 --> 00:34:48.674
I seen cool.

00:34:48.840 --> 00:34:50.752
This brother rewritin' cool.

00:34:50.920 --> 00:34:53.136
- I'll catch him next time.
- Don't wait long.

00:34:53.160 --> 00:34:56.198
These French girls keep lovin' him up,
he's gonna move over there for good.

00:34:56.400 --> 00:34:57.880
French kissin' cats!

00:34:58.560 --> 00:34:59.676
Thanks, pal.

00:35:07.400 --> 00:35:08.516
<i>On my average day,</i>

00:35:08.600 --> 00:35:10.440
<i>the weed will handle
my twitching and shouting,</i>

00:35:10.560 --> 00:35:11.676
<i>let me get to sleep.</i>

00:35:12.400 --> 00:35:14.517
<i>But it makes my thinking fuzzy.</i>

00:35:16.080 --> 00:35:19.517
<i>In my dreams, I'm calm and clear
like I was when I was a kid.</i>

00:35:21.400 --> 00:35:23.392
<i>Even after my head
started messin' with me...</i>

00:35:23.600 --> 00:35:25.193
<i>my mother could settle it down.</i>

00:35:25.640 --> 00:35:27.233
<i>She'd sing soft songs,</i>

00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:30.632
<i>stroke the back of my neck,
and it would leave me for awhile.</i>

00:35:31.360 --> 00:35:33.192
<i>We'd lie on the bed,</i>

00:35:33.280 --> 00:35:35.078
<i>talk about all the places
we were gonna go.</i>

00:35:54.080 --> 00:35:57.232
That "colored broad" is doing
most of the legwork on Hamilton for 'em.

00:36:01.440 --> 00:36:03.557
Christ, Coney,
did you get the shot or not?

00:36:04.120 --> 00:36:05.474
What? Doing what?

00:36:06.240 --> 00:36:08.630
Gettin' the paper ain't worth shit.

00:36:08.800 --> 00:36:10.200
The fuck's got to do with his back?

00:36:10.520 --> 00:36:11.920
"Bendin' over," my ass.

00:36:12.080 --> 00:36:15.278
Look, I need him liftin' the lawnmower
out of the car or playin' tennis,

00:36:15.480 --> 00:36:17.551
or spinnin' around the room
with some broad

00:36:17.640 --> 00:36:19.757
up on his tent pole
and his arms out wide.

00:36:19.920 --> 00:36:22.071
I don't give a shit as long as
it involves his back.

00:36:23.080 --> 00:36:24.080
Yeah.

00:36:24.440 --> 00:36:27.319
I know he's fakin' it, Gil.
That's why he's won three claims.

00:36:27.760 --> 00:36:30.355
Look, just wait him out
or set him up.

00:36:30.520 --> 00:36:33.115
I know it's cold.
That's why they call it winter!

00:36:33.520 --> 00:36:34.520
Fuck.

00:36:35.640 --> 00:36:37.096
I'm givin' him till the end of the week.

00:36:37.120 --> 00:36:39.510
Hell, the guy could
lift a cow into a truck...

00:36:39.680 --> 00:36:41.319
Coney's still gonna miss the shot.

00:36:41.480 --> 00:36:44.200
He still can't remember to wind
the film. He thinks it's a Tommy gun.

00:36:44.360 --> 00:36:47.273
I keep tellin' him, "Click, advance.
Click, advance."

00:36:47.440 --> 00:36:49.432
Can it! I'm givin' him
the rest of the week.

00:36:50.680 --> 00:36:53.115
Give me a fuckin' break, Gil.
What?

00:36:53.440 --> 00:36:55.272
Oh. Yeah, no, excuse me. L&amp;L.

00:36:55.480 --> 00:36:56.994
- We gettin' any rides?
- No.

00:36:57.160 --> 00:37:00.119
Nobody ever needs a ride on Tuesday,
you ever notice that?

00:37:00.320 --> 00:37:01.800
Never. What is that about?

00:37:01.960 --> 00:37:03.314
Tits on a Tuesday!

00:37:03.480 --> 00:37:04.480
Okay, thank you.

00:37:05.240 --> 00:37:06.240
Job?

00:37:06.320 --> 00:37:07.320
For me.

00:37:07.880 --> 00:37:09.616
Well, don't go gettin'
all mysterious now, T.

00:37:09.640 --> 00:37:11.154
You ain't no Minna.

00:37:11.720 --> 00:37:12.720
Yet.

00:37:12.840 --> 00:37:15.560
I'm going to pick up a prescription
for my mother, clam brain.

00:37:15.720 --> 00:37:17.040
You want all the details?

00:37:17.320 --> 00:37:18.320
All right.

00:37:18.520 --> 00:37:20.079
I'm goin' out for coffee.
You want?

00:37:20.240 --> 00:37:21.440
Yeah, cream and sugar.

00:37:21.560 --> 00:37:22.560
Oh.

00:37:23.000 --> 00:37:24.150
Okay.

00:37:25.480 --> 00:37:26.880
Meet the new boss.

00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:28.476
Mm-hmm.

00:37:28.760 --> 00:37:30.440
Hey, D, if it's slow,
you up for something?

00:37:30.600 --> 00:37:31.670
Like what?

00:37:33.320 --> 00:37:36.358
Will you go sit on that place for me?
It's up in Harlem.

00:37:36.760 --> 00:37:37.760
I don't know it.

00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:39.136
I think Frank was there that day,

00:37:39.160 --> 00:37:42.198
or maybe the day before, but it was
in his pants, it was almost full.

00:37:42.400 --> 00:37:43.560
- Fullsie pants!
- Yeah, well,

00:37:43.720 --> 00:37:46.189
maybe he just stopped in
for a book of matches.

00:37:46.360 --> 00:37:48.176
I don't think so.
He was talkin' about the colored girl,

00:37:48.200 --> 00:37:49.656
who found somethin'
they were unhappy about,

00:37:49.680 --> 00:37:52.176
and he said her father's a busted-up vet
who runs a joint in Harlem,

00:37:52.200 --> 00:37:55.034
and this place is three blocks
from where they had that meeting.

00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:57.232
Hmm. So, you went there?

00:37:58.040 --> 00:38:01.078
Yeah, and guess who the manager is?
He's a colored guy with a bum arm.

00:38:01.680 --> 00:38:03.672
Okay, what do you want me
to do about it?

00:38:03.880 --> 00:38:05.439
Just get in there, you know,

00:38:05.520 --> 00:38:07.536
see if you can get her name
off of them or something.

00:38:07.560 --> 00:38:09.711
Use your liquor board bit.
Lick Broader!

00:38:09.880 --> 00:38:10.880
I get her name.

00:38:11.040 --> 00:38:12.536
- That's it?
- No, sit there a while.

00:38:12.560 --> 00:38:14.520
See if she comes in.
Get her picture or somethin'.

00:38:14.600 --> 00:38:17.035
See if a colored girl
walks into a jazz joint?

00:38:17.200 --> 00:38:18.429
Let me make a prediction.

00:38:18.600 --> 00:38:20.680
Hey, asshole, I'm workin' it
from another angle, too.

00:38:20.720 --> 00:38:22.871
We'll put 'em together.
We'll figure out who she is.

00:38:23.040 --> 00:38:25.077
All right.
Can I ask why we're doin' this?

00:38:25.600 --> 00:38:26.880
'Cause he'd have done it for us.

00:38:27.280 --> 00:38:28.316
You're right.

00:38:31.240 --> 00:38:33.232
Ah, it's fuckin' cold for a sit.

00:38:33.400 --> 00:38:35.576
No, take the Bel Air.
That heater'll roast you like a brisket.

00:38:35.600 --> 00:38:36.600
Bet on the bris!

00:38:36.760 --> 00:38:37.955
What are you, a rabbi now?

00:38:38.120 --> 00:38:40.191
You don't want me handling your bris,
believe me.

00:38:58.000 --> 00:38:59.000
Can I help you?

00:38:59.120 --> 00:39:00.236
Yeah.
If!

00:39:00.440 --> 00:39:02.432
- Bless you.
- Thank you. I'm here to see Mildred.

00:39:02.600 --> 00:39:04.751
Mildred? There's nobody
by that name here.

00:39:04.920 --> 00:39:06.320
I'm pretty sure it was Mildred.

00:39:06.480 --> 00:39:08.278
- Myrna.
- My mynah bird's Myrna.

00:39:08.440 --> 00:39:11.194
No. No, it was a colored girl
that I was speaking to.

00:39:12.640 --> 00:39:13.676
Uh, Josephine?

00:39:14.200 --> 00:39:15.270
Or Laura?

00:39:16.040 --> 00:39:18.191
- Mary.
- No, I'm pretty sure it was Mildred.

00:39:18.360 --> 00:39:21.240
I was talking to her on the phone
about my application. What's your name?

00:39:21.280 --> 00:39:22.953
Betty. What sort of application?

00:39:23.120 --> 00:39:24.600
For my vendor's license.

00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:27.433
Is this not the licensing office?

00:39:27.600 --> 00:39:30.274
It's the Committee
on Racial Discrimination in Housing.

00:39:30.600 --> 00:39:32.976
Well, then, you can't very well
help me sell hot dogs, can you?

00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:34.116
I'm so sorry.

00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:37.276
Wait. Mr. Horowitz isn't here today,
is he?

00:39:37.520 --> 00:39:39.352
- You mean Miss Horowitz?
- Either one.

00:39:39.840 --> 00:39:41.877
- She's in the back.
- Can you point her out to me?

00:39:42.640 --> 00:39:43.640
There she is.

00:39:49.560 --> 00:39:51.233
You've been more helpful than you know.

00:40:02.240 --> 00:40:03.776
We told you to dig in on Horowitz.

00:40:03.800 --> 00:40:04.995
Horse a whip!

00:40:05.720 --> 00:40:06.995
Horse a whip!

00:40:47.200 --> 00:40:48.429
Shit, what happened?

00:40:48.800 --> 00:40:49.800
Jesus, Danny.

00:40:49.960 --> 00:40:51.360
Come on. All right.

00:40:51.520 --> 00:40:52.556
Come.

00:40:55.560 --> 00:40:56.710
Shit. You need ice?

00:40:57.040 --> 00:40:59.555
No, no. I'll take a shot.
You got one of those?

00:40:59.720 --> 00:41:00.720
Yeah.

00:41:02.960 --> 00:41:04.872
- Yeah, thanks.
- Who was it, D?

00:41:08.480 --> 00:41:09.800
There was a couple of 'em.

00:41:10.400 --> 00:41:11.629
One was a giant.

00:41:11.760 --> 00:41:12.936
- A what?
- A fuckin' giant.

00:41:12.960 --> 00:41:15.156
I'm tellin' ya,
the biggest guy I ever saw.

00:41:15.320 --> 00:41:17.232
Worked me over pretty good.

00:41:17.400 --> 00:41:18.400
Murdered the camera.

00:41:18.560 --> 00:41:20.756
- Fuck. Did they say anything?
- Yeah.

00:41:21.280 --> 00:41:23.875
Uh, "Stay out of Minna's garbage.
Tell your crew the same."

00:41:24.080 --> 00:41:27.073
They had a big nasty knife to my throat
for that part.

00:41:27.240 --> 00:41:28.240
Those sons of bitches!

00:41:28.400 --> 00:41:30.790
But they didn't get this.

00:41:32.560 --> 00:41:33.960
- Assholes.
- The fuck is it?

00:41:34.120 --> 00:41:36.794
Giant-ass dog!
D, you're the tits.

00:41:36.960 --> 00:41:38.110
What are you two into?

00:41:49.840 --> 00:41:51.776
- You get 'em all?
- These are yours, these are mine.

00:41:51.800 --> 00:41:52.800
Yeah.

00:41:53.600 --> 00:41:55.000
Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

00:41:55.080 --> 00:41:57.256
- That's the same guy I saw.
- Yeah, yeah.

00:41:57.280 --> 00:41:58.919
- The bum arm.
- Forget all that, though.

00:41:59.120 --> 00:42:01.430
She doesn't show up
till sort of the end of the roll.

00:42:01.600 --> 00:42:02.600
Yeah.

00:42:02.800 --> 00:42:04.598
- Look, they come out together.
- Yeah.

00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:06.513
No, wait, but I saw her. That's, uh...

00:42:06.680 --> 00:42:07.955
Laura, they called her Laura.

00:42:08.120 --> 00:42:11.272
Laura Rose? Maybe that's
Billy Rose, if he's her father.

00:42:11.440 --> 00:42:13.511
She lives on the same corner
as the club.

00:42:13.680 --> 00:42:16.136
They must have made me early,
as soon as I got out to check it out,

00:42:16.160 --> 00:42:17.196
bam, they were on me.

00:42:17.360 --> 00:42:18.840
Yeah. That's her.

00:42:19.000 --> 00:42:21.674
That's the colored girl
that Frank was following.

00:42:21.840 --> 00:42:23.115
All right, I'm with you, okay?

00:42:23.280 --> 00:42:25.240
- It's just, it's still a little thin.
- Skeletal.

00:42:25.280 --> 00:42:28.637
Thin? What? We already ID'd her.
We've been at it one day.

00:42:28.800 --> 00:42:30.280
You know, whatever it is, it's...

00:42:31.280 --> 00:42:33.476
It's gotta be big,
they're goin' this far, right?

00:42:34.720 --> 00:42:36.837
So, it's gotta be worth something, then.

00:42:38.040 --> 00:42:39.520
I'll tell you what, Freakshow,

00:42:39.680 --> 00:42:41.936
Gil and I, we'll stay on the money work,
just to keep us afloat,

00:42:41.960 --> 00:42:44.350
you and Danny keep sniffin' this.
Let's see what we get.

00:42:44.440 --> 00:42:45.317
- Fuck 'em!
- Yeah.

00:42:45.400 --> 00:42:46.456
- Right?
- Yeah.

00:42:46.480 --> 00:42:47.960
- If!
- I hope these mugs poke around,

00:42:48.040 --> 00:42:49.720
'cause I got something for them
if they do.

00:42:49.800 --> 00:42:50.870
What do you say, D?

00:42:52.320 --> 00:42:53.390
Fellas, I...

00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:56.198
I loved him, you know.

00:42:56.360 --> 00:42:57.760
I mean, I'll, uh...

00:42:58.240 --> 00:42:59.071
I, uh...

00:42:59.160 --> 00:43:00.833
I'll handle the car stuff.

00:43:01.000 --> 00:43:03.469
I'll work some domestic shit,

00:43:03.680 --> 00:43:05.080
but I got Linda.

00:43:05.240 --> 00:43:08.677
No, hey, hey, that's the right thing.

00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:10.752
Get on home,
throw a steak on that eye. Huh?

00:43:10.840 --> 00:43:11.840
Yeah.

00:43:11.920 --> 00:43:13.718
I'll give you a lift.

00:43:16.520 --> 00:43:18.512
- So long.
- Yeah, yeah.

00:43:21.840 --> 00:43:23.672
What do you mean,
it might be worth something?

00:43:24.520 --> 00:43:26.496
I don't know, I thought
maybe we'll get something out of it.

00:43:26.520 --> 00:43:28.096
I ain't looking to make a deal
with these fucks.

00:43:28.120 --> 00:43:29.560
Forget that, then. Look, I'm just...

00:43:29.600 --> 00:43:31.717
Don't you think I wanna find out
who whacked Frank?

00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:32.717
Yeah.

00:43:32.920 --> 00:43:34.240
Just don't hold out on me, okay?

00:43:34.400 --> 00:43:36.119
We're workin' on this thing together.

00:43:36.280 --> 00:43:38.875
We find who did this,
and we square accounts.

00:43:39.440 --> 00:43:40.760
If you say so, yeah.

00:43:42.200 --> 00:43:43.200
Wanna get a beer?

00:43:43.800 --> 00:43:45.075
- Nah.
- Come on.

00:43:45.440 --> 00:43:46.920
Come on. Let's get a beer.

00:43:47.080 --> 00:43:49.576
- Come on, let's get a beer.
- Okay, leave me alone, leave me alone.

00:43:49.600 --> 00:43:50.600
All right.

00:43:51.640 --> 00:43:53.040
Don't stay up too late, kemosabe.

00:44:45.800 --> 00:44:47.519
Give up the seat, asshole!

00:44:48.120 --> 00:44:49.440
Give her the seat!

00:46:16.360 --> 00:46:17.440
Hey, Gabby, they're closed.

00:46:17.560 --> 00:46:18.680
Oh, you gotta be kidding me!

00:46:18.720 --> 00:46:20.552
- Yes...
- At 3:30? Ugh.

00:47:03.240 --> 00:47:05.471
Hey, pal, I'm new to this beat.
What's the story here?

00:47:06.000 --> 00:47:09.152
Stories of injustice and despair,
nodding assurances,

00:47:09.320 --> 00:47:12.119
and back to business as usual.
The American way.

00:47:13.440 --> 00:47:15.272
Though this one
could make things interesting.

00:47:15.440 --> 00:47:18.399
Hey, who's the guy on the far right?

00:47:18.600 --> 00:47:21.638
It's Brooklyn borough president.
What are you, a television reporter?

00:47:21.800 --> 00:47:22.800
No, just new.

00:47:22.960 --> 00:47:24.360
We'll commence this public comment.

00:47:24.440 --> 00:47:26.591
State your name, address,
and affiliation, please.

00:47:26.760 --> 00:47:29.594
I'm William Lieberman,
Mayor's Commission on Slum Clearance.

00:47:29.760 --> 00:47:31.911
We'll arrange
an appropriate resolution for you.

00:47:32.080 --> 00:47:34.356
- Resident of East 65th Street Manhattan.
- Lieberman.

00:47:37.440 --> 00:47:40.319
Cindy Fleming, homemaker, Yonkers.

00:47:40.960 --> 00:47:42.440
Formerly East Tremont.

00:47:42.600 --> 00:47:43.720
My family was forced to move

00:47:43.800 --> 00:47:45.960
when they seized
our building for the Bronx Expressway,

00:47:46.120 --> 00:47:47.936
- and I want people to know that...
- Mrs. Horowitz.

00:47:47.960 --> 00:47:48.960
Miss.

00:47:49.120 --> 00:47:51.794
Miss Horowitz, you may not hijack
these proceedings

00:47:51.960 --> 00:47:53.416
- to air out old complaints...
- Gabby Horowitz.

00:47:53.440 --> 00:47:54.976
Committee for Racial Discrimination
in Housing.

00:47:55.000 --> 00:47:57.276
552 Clinton Avenue, Brooklyn.

00:47:57.440 --> 00:47:58.816
I thought that this
was a community hearing?

00:47:58.840 --> 00:47:59.956
On housing, not highways.

00:48:00.120 --> 00:48:02.112
You're making the same promises
to Fort Greene

00:48:02.280 --> 00:48:03.839
you made in East Tremont

00:48:04.000 --> 00:48:05.992
where your so-called
"relocation services"

00:48:06.080 --> 00:48:08.117
vanished into thin air,

00:48:08.320 --> 00:48:11.040
and left families like the Flemings
utterly adrift.

00:48:11.240 --> 00:48:12.936
People have a right to know
what they're in for.

00:48:12.960 --> 00:48:15.475
We are totally committed
to the welfare of families

00:48:15.640 --> 00:48:18.997
displaced by necessary
community improvement programs...

00:48:19.160 --> 00:48:22.153
and the past has been instructive, miss,

00:48:22.640 --> 00:48:26.554
but our new contractors will ensure
all find adequate homes...

00:48:26.720 --> 00:48:28.313
This isn't Long Island, you know.

00:48:28.480 --> 00:48:31.632
It's not just a blank canvas
you can paint on anywhere you like.

00:48:31.840 --> 00:48:34.480
There are people here,
established communities.

00:48:35.760 --> 00:48:36.989
Bill, if I may.

00:48:37.160 --> 00:48:39.072
I hope you all know my name.
I'm the mayor,

00:48:39.240 --> 00:48:40.913
newly residing in Gracie Mansion.

00:48:42.240 --> 00:48:45.199
Uh, Miss Horowitz, thank you
for your work and your passion.

00:48:45.680 --> 00:48:48.559
Surely we can all agree that
even in a city as great as ours,

00:48:48.720 --> 00:48:52.350
we have slums, and that slums
are not to be romanticized or preserved.

00:48:52.520 --> 00:48:54.960
You tear them down and improve
quality of life for everyone...

00:48:55.000 --> 00:48:57.231
A neighborhood is not a slum,

00:48:57.400 --> 00:48:59.960
because poor people and minorities
live there, Mr. Mayor.

00:49:01.280 --> 00:49:03.590
East Tremont wasn't a slum,

00:49:03.760 --> 00:49:05.558
Third Avenue wasn't a slum,

00:49:05.720 --> 00:49:08.076
and Fort Greene isn't a slum, either.

00:49:08.240 --> 00:49:10.197
These are working-class communities.

00:49:10.360 --> 00:49:13.751
Your developers are making them slums,
Mr. Randolph!

00:49:13.920 --> 00:49:16.435
That is unsubstantiated
and unmitigated bunk!

00:49:16.640 --> 00:49:19.280
We have got it on paper.
We got 20 people here tonight,

00:49:19.440 --> 00:49:20.556
and scores behind them,

00:49:20.720 --> 00:49:24.031
who can testify
to a scandalous fraud underway.

00:49:24.200 --> 00:49:25.600
Which way do you want it first?

00:49:27.800 --> 00:49:28.870
Hey, hey, hey!

00:49:29.040 --> 00:49:31.919
We are embarking on the most ambitious
slum clearance program

00:49:32.080 --> 00:49:33.799
in American history, Mrs. Horowitz,

00:49:33.960 --> 00:49:36.395
and you are gumming it up
with your molasses!

00:49:36.560 --> 00:49:38.313
A Niagara of molasses!

00:49:38.480 --> 00:49:39.640
Make him say his name!

00:49:40.760 --> 00:49:42.877
Name and place of residence
like everyone else!

00:49:43.080 --> 00:49:45.993
Now, see here, we all know
perfectly well who this is.

00:49:46.160 --> 00:49:48.921
Mo Randolph is one our greatest
public servants. He's a living legend.

00:49:49.080 --> 00:49:51.800
Name and residence, like everybody else!

00:49:51.960 --> 00:49:52.960
Shiver shitty self!

00:49:53.120 --> 00:49:55.430
He's led the Parks Department
for over 30 years.

00:49:55.600 --> 00:49:58.200
He's Commissioner of Construction.
He's got too many jobs to name.

00:49:58.240 --> 00:50:00.596
And he lives right across the street
from me on 88th.

00:50:00.680 --> 00:50:01.477
Make him say it!

00:50:01.600 --> 00:50:03.736
So, let's stick to the issues
concerning the citizens of...

00:50:03.760 --> 00:50:05.160
Name, address!

00:50:05.320 --> 00:50:06.151
See here now,

00:50:06.240 --> 00:50:07.496
- if we can't keep this civil...
- Say it!

00:50:07.520 --> 00:50:09.671
...we'll have to
ask you to leave!

00:50:09.840 --> 00:50:10.840
Say it!

00:50:11.920 --> 00:50:12.920
Hey!

00:50:18.080 --> 00:50:19.912
Two fuckin' pigs in a blanket!

00:50:20.840 --> 00:50:22.672
Hey! Say it, Hammy House Head!

00:50:23.640 --> 00:50:26.599
Say it! Say it! Say it!

00:50:27.560 --> 00:50:30.200
Say it! Say it! Say it!

00:50:30.280 --> 00:50:31.919
Say it! Say it!

00:50:32.280 --> 00:50:34.272
I got a condition. Easy!

00:50:35.280 --> 00:50:36.953
"Hammy Ham House Head"?

00:50:37.120 --> 00:50:38.640
That's good.
I gotta remember that one.

00:50:38.680 --> 00:50:39.680
- If!
- Yeah, well,

00:50:39.840 --> 00:50:42.878
that's the rub in life, all right, if.
If only.

00:50:43.120 --> 00:50:44.120
Hey...

00:50:44.520 --> 00:50:46.176
You know things about that guy,
Bill Lieberman?

00:50:46.200 --> 00:50:47.296
Is he in charge of
this whole housing deal?

00:50:47.320 --> 00:50:48.640
Charge? No, he's not in charge.

00:50:48.800 --> 00:50:51.474
More in charge than that guy
calling himself the mayor,

00:50:51.640 --> 00:50:53.950
but they all work for Moses.

00:50:55.960 --> 00:50:58.475
- Hey, hey, stop, stop, wait a second.
- Let me go. You nuts?

00:50:58.640 --> 00:51:00.376
- You just said Formosa. What is that?
- What's Formosa?

00:51:00.400 --> 00:51:02.320
You said, "Working Formosa."
What does that mean?

00:51:02.400 --> 00:51:04.960
No, Jesus, I said,
"They're all working for Moses."

00:51:05.160 --> 00:51:06.674
Moses Randolph.

00:51:08.160 --> 00:51:09.992
Mo Randolph? The guy who walked in late?

00:51:10.160 --> 00:51:12.356
He who will not speak his name
like one of the rabble.

00:51:12.520 --> 00:51:13.520
What do you care?

00:51:13.680 --> 00:51:14.680
Hey, hey... Um...

00:51:15.520 --> 00:51:17.637
I'm Jake Gleason. I'm with the <i>Post.</i>

00:51:17.840 --> 00:51:19.479
Can I buy you a cup of coffee?

00:51:20.320 --> 00:51:22.755
I'm hungry. You can buy me dinner.

00:51:25.240 --> 00:51:27.696
Okay, that means the one guy
answers to the other guy,

00:51:27.720 --> 00:51:29.336
- but they all gotta answer to the mayor.
- The mayor?

00:51:29.360 --> 00:51:32.239
That clown is so green, he doesn't even
know what he doesn't know yet.

00:51:32.760 --> 00:51:34.991
He'll be out the door
before he even realizes,

00:51:35.160 --> 00:51:37.760
that every person he turns to for advice
is on Randolph's payroll.

00:51:37.880 --> 00:51:38.791
I thought he was the parks commissioner.

00:51:38.880 --> 00:51:39.880
He is.

00:51:39.920 --> 00:51:41.656
But they called him
the construction commissioner in there.

00:51:41.680 --> 00:51:44.080
He's that, too, now,
but they didn't even have that position,

00:51:44.200 --> 00:51:46.556
until the Feds decided
to get in the housing game.

00:51:46.720 --> 00:51:50.430
There was no defined power,
so he defined it, they approved it,

00:51:50.600 --> 00:51:53.399
and now how much control
over that money has the city got? Zero.

00:51:53.560 --> 00:51:55.711
He's got it all.
You know what "eminent domain" is?

00:51:55.920 --> 00:51:58.674
- I think, yeah...
- Yeah, if he says it's a slum, it goes.

00:51:58.880 --> 00:52:02.078
He used to have to fight to put
his highways and parks where he wanted,

00:52:02.240 --> 00:52:04.118
and now, he goes anywhere,
tears anything down.

00:52:04.280 --> 00:52:07.193
He can condemn
a whole section of the city,

00:52:07.360 --> 00:52:09.600
evict everyone who lives there,
and put up what he wants.

00:52:09.880 --> 00:52:12.475
- And he'll go at it with an axe.
- Smacks with an axe!

00:52:12.640 --> 00:52:14.056
But he'd be the most hated guy
in the city.

00:52:14.080 --> 00:52:15.480
I mean, he'd piss everybody off.

00:52:15.880 --> 00:52:17.109
They love him.

00:52:18.200 --> 00:52:19.759
That's what makes me so...

00:52:20.120 --> 00:52:22.589
He flies above it.
They revere him.

00:52:22.760 --> 00:52:25.594
- Why?
- Because he built the parks.

00:52:25.760 --> 00:52:28.719
As long as you're the guy
that brings people parks,

00:52:29.120 --> 00:52:31.077
you walk with the angels,
you can't lose.

00:52:31.240 --> 00:52:32.913
The day that Rockaway Beach opened,

00:52:33.080 --> 00:52:35.595
Moses Randolph became
a folk hero in this town.

00:52:35.760 --> 00:52:38.116
People don't realize
how much he hates them.

00:52:38.280 --> 00:52:42.115
"The hero of the public
who hates people." That's your headline.

00:52:42.280 --> 00:52:45.079
And you know who he hates especially?

00:52:45.400 --> 00:52:46.400
Negroes.

00:52:46.600 --> 00:52:49.911
He's going to seize every neighborhood
in this city that's not white,

00:52:50.080 --> 00:52:52.595
and turn it over
to his handpicked private developers.

00:52:52.760 --> 00:52:55.136
So, you're saying he's getting rich,
he's taking kickbacks on all this?

00:52:55.160 --> 00:52:56.992
No, he doesn't want money.
He wants control.

00:52:57.160 --> 00:52:59.755
And he brokers money
to get it and guard it.

00:52:59.920 --> 00:53:02.799
Some guys aren't satisfied
unless they have filet mignon.

00:53:02.960 --> 00:53:07.591
Moses Randolph would be satisfied
with a pastrami sandwich and power.

00:53:08.120 --> 00:53:10.271
Hey, excuse me.

00:53:10.440 --> 00:53:12.880
Uh, could I get a slice of cheesecake?
Could you make it warm?

00:53:12.960 --> 00:53:14.030
I'd like it warm.

00:53:14.600 --> 00:53:17.354
Half the city is getting a ride
on one of his horses.

00:53:17.520 --> 00:53:21.116
For God's sakes, he controls every
fuckin' construction job in the city.

00:53:21.280 --> 00:53:23.192
But you said they just
created the position.

00:53:23.280 --> 00:53:26.796
No. Construction, slums, parks.
He's got 14 appointments.

00:53:26.960 --> 00:53:28.792
It's all just ink on a glass door.

00:53:28.960 --> 00:53:30.553
None of it matters. It's all BA.

00:53:30.720 --> 00:53:31.720
BA?

00:53:32.440 --> 00:53:33.794
Borough Authority.

00:53:34.720 --> 00:53:36.996
You call yourself a reporter?
On what?

00:53:37.160 --> 00:53:38.913
- The arts beat?
- Beet farts!

00:53:39.000 --> 00:53:40.559
- You read Emerson?
- No, should I?

00:53:40.720 --> 00:53:42.871
- Yeah, you fucking should.
- All right.

00:53:43.640 --> 00:53:49.318
Emerson said that "an institution
is the lengthened shadow of one man."

00:53:49.640 --> 00:53:51.871
<i>This town is run by
the Borough Authority,</i>

00:53:52.080 --> 00:53:55.551
<i>and the Borough Authority
is Moses Randolph.</i>

00:54:04.640 --> 00:54:05.869
If!

00:54:42.720 --> 00:54:43.720
Fucking Lieberman.

00:54:43.920 --> 00:54:44.920
If!

00:54:55.960 --> 00:54:58.555
<i>That quack in the diner
with pork chop and peas in his beard,</i>

00:54:58.720 --> 00:55:01.997
<i>was one of the most talented engineers
of his generation.</i>

00:55:02.080 --> 00:55:03.878
<i>Ivy League. Big awards.</i>

00:55:04.560 --> 00:55:07.871
<i>Walkin' right next to his brother
toward being someone important.</i>

00:55:08.320 --> 00:55:10.551
<i>Then, sometime after the Crash, just...</i>

00:55:10.720 --> 00:55:11.720
<i>nothing.</i>

00:55:11.760 --> 00:55:13.319
<i>Like he got erased.</i>

00:55:14.640 --> 00:55:17.155
<i>Maybe it was bad luck,
maybe booze.</i>

00:55:17.560 --> 00:55:19.916
<i>There was all kinds of casualties
in those days.</i>

00:55:20.320 --> 00:55:23.074
Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome

00:55:23.240 --> 00:55:26.836
the president of
the Gotham Builders Association,

00:55:27.000 --> 00:55:29.799
Joe Pompano!

00:55:33.480 --> 00:55:35.392
Gotta show this to Bill Lieberman.

00:55:35.600 --> 00:55:38.798
He's gonna want to see this
before Randolph speaks, believe me.

00:55:43.160 --> 00:55:46.676
Thank you. Thank you,
ladies and gentlemen. Please settle down

00:55:47.520 --> 00:55:50.115
and lend your serious attention.

00:55:50.320 --> 00:55:51.720
Don't worry. We'll celebrate.

00:55:51.800 --> 00:55:54.634
We're gonna eat
like only we know how to eat.

00:55:55.360 --> 00:55:59.639
Tonight's celebration is made
very special by our guest of honor,

00:55:59.840 --> 00:56:01.433
a brother to our trade...

00:56:01.600 --> 00:56:03.000
- Hey, Gleason, right?
- Hey.

00:56:03.160 --> 00:56:04.736
...who would rightly be
hailed this country's master builder...

00:56:04.760 --> 00:56:06.114
Nice threads.

00:56:06.280 --> 00:56:09.717
...or "the Great Dirt Mover"

00:56:10.000 --> 00:56:11.560
as he likes to be called.

00:56:11.600 --> 00:56:13.432
Don't let them see you
pull out a notebook.

00:56:13.640 --> 00:56:16.951
Tonight, it's "Press: Forget about it."

00:56:17.880 --> 00:56:19.837
We'd have to look to the Caesars

00:56:20.000 --> 00:56:23.960
and pharaohs to find men
with a scale of vision

00:56:24.120 --> 00:56:25.679
to compare with his.

00:56:25.840 --> 00:56:27.115
- A great man.
- If!

00:56:27.320 --> 00:56:28.390
A man of history,

00:56:28.560 --> 00:56:33.191
serving the people of this city
for over 25 years,

00:56:33.360 --> 00:56:36.194
Moses Randolph!

00:56:45.320 --> 00:56:47.198
Jeez, you'd think Patton showed up.

00:56:48.400 --> 00:56:51.393
He pays one and a half times union rate
on all of his jobs.

00:56:51.560 --> 00:56:53.677
They'd pave over their mothers for him.

00:56:54.920 --> 00:56:56.149
Thank you, Joe.

00:56:57.160 --> 00:57:01.677
Tonight, over 300 years
since the founding of this great city,

00:57:02.160 --> 00:57:05.437
we recommit ourselves
to the ancient truth

00:57:05.880 --> 00:57:07.837
that it is not knowledge,

00:57:08.000 --> 00:57:09.832
but action and enterprise

00:57:10.000 --> 00:57:13.516
which are the engine
and objective in life.

00:57:14.000 --> 00:57:15.673
Clever men come and go,

00:57:16.200 --> 00:57:19.671
but for every dozen of them
with their big ideas,

00:57:19.840 --> 00:57:22.355
there is not more than one
that can execute them.

00:57:23.400 --> 00:57:25.960
I look around this room,
I don't see a lot of bright boys,

00:57:26.120 --> 00:57:30.034
or goodie-goodie progressives
with their paralyzing ideals.

00:57:32.680 --> 00:57:34.512
I see the men of my tribe.

00:57:35.720 --> 00:57:40.397
The men who get things done.
The doers that make this country great!

00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:45.033
To be honored by you

00:57:45.560 --> 00:57:49.190
is all the affirmation or payment
I shall ever seek.

00:57:50.480 --> 00:57:51.880
I celebrate you,

00:57:52.760 --> 00:57:53.876
and I thank you.

00:57:54.040 --> 00:57:55.633
Hear, hear!

00:58:28.920 --> 00:58:30.832
- I'll catch you on the next one.
- All right.

00:59:02.880 --> 00:59:04.030
You finished it?

00:59:04.200 --> 00:59:05.680
Best work I've done.

00:59:06.200 --> 00:59:09.637
A total modernization of the state's
electrical grid.

00:59:09.800 --> 00:59:12.520
And it's a scale
that only you can get done.

00:59:18.120 --> 00:59:20.320
- Clean yourself up, for Christ sakes.
- How? With what?

00:59:20.480 --> 00:59:22.711
Hey, not a fuckin' word out of you
about any of that.

00:59:22.880 --> 00:59:25.296
You bring that up to me ever again,
I'm gonna close you out for good.

00:59:25.320 --> 00:59:29.633
Moses, I'm so far out, I'm doing
piecework for kids fresh out of school.

00:59:29.800 --> 00:59:31.696
You whip up a crowd against me
like that ever again...

00:59:31.720 --> 00:59:34.376
I'm gonna take your big idea,
I'll throw it on the fuckin' scrap heap.

00:59:34.400 --> 00:59:35.993
- Is that what you want?
- No, no.

00:59:36.760 --> 00:59:38.877
Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

00:59:39.240 --> 00:59:40.469
None of that matters.

00:59:41.000 --> 00:59:43.356
Just read it.

00:59:45.400 --> 00:59:46.550
I'll read it.

00:59:48.720 --> 00:59:51.001
<i>What makes a person
go against their own brother?</i>

00:59:52.320 --> 00:59:53.760
<i>All my life, I'd never had a family,</i>

00:59:53.840 --> 00:59:56.833
<i>so I never could understand people
who did and let it get ugly.</i>

00:59:58.280 --> 01:00:01.557
<i>My crazy brain was tellin' me
I should keep pullin' on that thread,</i>

01:00:02.000 --> 01:00:05.198
<i>but whatever Frank found,
he found it following the girl.</i>

01:00:05.360 --> 01:00:07.591
<i>So, I just kept chasin' his footsteps.</i>

01:01:05.400 --> 01:01:06.400
Hello?

01:01:08.760 --> 01:01:09.760
Hello?

01:01:37.960 --> 01:01:38.960
If!

01:01:40.960 --> 01:01:42.474
Keep it together, Freakshow.

01:01:50.280 --> 01:01:51.280
Jesus.

01:01:54.480 --> 01:01:56.200
- You lookin' for somethin'?
- Help, Bailey!

01:01:56.320 --> 01:01:57.151
Ah, shit.

01:01:57.320 --> 01:01:58.856
What, you think you can just
walk into people's homes?

01:01:58.880 --> 01:02:01.475
No, I was lookin' for someone.
I didn't think anybody lived here.

01:02:01.640 --> 01:02:02.976
Someone lives here. My momma lives here.

01:02:03.000 --> 01:02:03.831
Sure.

01:02:04.000 --> 01:02:05.480
- At least, she's tryin' to.
- If!

01:02:05.800 --> 01:02:07.200
- Who you with?
- Huh?

01:02:07.360 --> 01:02:08.440
I hope you're with Belmont.

01:02:08.560 --> 01:02:10.313
Yeah, yeah, Belmont.
Who else?

01:02:14.800 --> 01:02:16.154
What is going on?

01:02:16.320 --> 01:02:17.800
We got ourselves an intruder.

01:02:19.680 --> 01:02:21.896
- How hard did you hit him?
- I barely tapped him.

01:02:21.920 --> 01:02:23.176
Fool slipped and hit his own head.

01:02:23.200 --> 01:02:24.200
If!

01:02:25.160 --> 01:02:26.310
"If" what?

01:02:27.320 --> 01:02:28.913
I'll tell you what, "if",

01:02:29.080 --> 01:02:32.152
you better explain who you are
if you want to walk out of here.

01:02:33.880 --> 01:02:34.996
Have I seen you before?

01:02:35.160 --> 01:02:36.576
Yeah, my name is Jake Gleason.

01:02:36.600 --> 01:02:37.696
It's a misunderstanding, all right?

01:02:37.720 --> 01:02:38.870
I'm a reporter.

01:02:39.040 --> 01:02:41.509
I was at the Hamilton Housing hearing
the other night.

01:02:42.040 --> 01:02:45.033
I called the committee this morning.
I came out here looking for you.

01:02:45.240 --> 01:02:47.994
He the one that said he's with those
racketeering sons of bitches.

01:02:48.200 --> 01:02:49.395
They stole her fridge.

01:02:49.560 --> 01:02:52.359
They stole her copper pipes.
Man, what you expect?

01:02:52.520 --> 01:02:54.920
First, they put up a notice says
the house will be condemned.

01:02:55.040 --> 01:02:58.431
It's not true, but that scares out
about half and they sell for cheap.

01:02:58.600 --> 01:03:00.876
Then they come in
and take the nice old family homes,

01:03:01.040 --> 01:03:02.554
chop 'em into four and rent 'em up.

01:03:02.720 --> 01:03:04.951
Folks who don't leave, they harass,
turn the heat off,

01:03:05.560 --> 01:03:08.200
come in to do repairs
and steal copper pipe instead.

01:03:08.520 --> 01:03:12.036
The city sold property worth
$15 million for 500,000,

01:03:12.200 --> 01:03:14.715
to take the risk of having to build
the federal projects.

01:03:14.880 --> 01:03:18.556
They haven't even submitted plans,
just milked it till it really is a slum.

01:03:18.720 --> 01:03:20.951
Slammer for the slum lords, Bailey!
Uh...

01:03:21.040 --> 01:03:23.480
Oh, what? You're one of those
who thinks we're just agitating?

01:03:23.640 --> 01:03:25.871
Making it up like some
Negro propaganda conspiracy?

01:03:26.040 --> 01:03:28.236
No, no, look, look, look.
I got a condition, okay?

01:03:28.400 --> 01:03:30.800
It makes me say funny things,
but I'm not trying to be funny.

01:03:31.240 --> 01:03:32.440
I'm really not. I'm listenin'.

01:03:33.440 --> 01:03:34.794
Where's everybody go?

01:03:35.040 --> 01:03:38.238
Mostly just disappear. Fade away.

01:03:38.640 --> 01:03:41.997
200,000 in two years,
just from this part of Brooklyn.

01:03:42.400 --> 01:03:44.437
Mostly Negro. Latino.

01:03:44.600 --> 01:03:46.536
Yeah, but Horowitz said they did it
up in East Tremont, too.

01:03:46.560 --> 01:03:48.536
- Same thing?
- Yeah, they did it to a few Jews, too,

01:03:48.560 --> 01:03:49.914
but not systematic like this.

01:03:50.600 --> 01:03:52.616
How many parks, do you think,
have been built in this city

01:03:52.640 --> 01:03:53.800
since he's been commissioner?

01:03:53.960 --> 01:03:55.235
255.

01:03:55.920 --> 01:03:58.151
How many of those in Harlem, you think?

01:03:58.960 --> 01:04:00.076
One.

01:04:00.240 --> 01:04:02.596
You build a new beach for the people,

01:04:02.760 --> 01:04:05.400
but the ones with no cars,
the poor ones, the black and brown ones,

01:04:05.480 --> 01:04:07.360
how are they gonna get
to the parks and beaches?

01:04:07.680 --> 01:04:08.750
Public bus.

01:04:09.440 --> 01:04:12.911
Guess how high they just built
the overpasses on the new parkway?

01:04:13.480 --> 01:04:15.836
One foot too low for a bus to clear.

01:04:16.000 --> 01:04:16.831
Come on.

01:04:16.920 --> 01:04:18.496
Look, forget whether
it's discrimination.

01:04:18.520 --> 01:04:20.671
The federal government and the city
are being scammed.

01:04:20.840 --> 01:04:22.797
There's supposed to be
relocation services,

01:04:23.000 --> 01:04:25.096
company's got a $2 million-dollar
contract to handle it,

01:04:25.120 --> 01:04:26.793
but nobody even answers the phone.

01:04:26.960 --> 01:04:30.112
Call the city, they say these folks are
on the list for the new public housing,

01:04:30.280 --> 01:04:31.336
but then it never gets built.

01:04:31.360 --> 01:04:33.176
You know more than any secretary
I ever met in my life.

01:04:33.200 --> 01:04:35.351
Secretary? Who told you that?

01:04:35.840 --> 01:04:37.433
I got a law degree, you know?

01:04:37.640 --> 01:04:39.632
I'll pass the bar first time I sit, too.

01:04:39.800 --> 01:04:40.800
Okay, then. Sorry.

01:04:40.960 --> 01:04:43.376
How are you gonna write about it all
if you don't even take a note?

01:04:43.400 --> 01:04:45.040
What,
"$2 million for relocation services,

01:04:45.120 --> 01:04:48.158
bridges a foot too low for the buses,
one out of 255 parks,

01:04:48.360 --> 01:04:49.953
15 million in property for 500K,

01:04:50.040 --> 01:04:52.509
200,000 people in Fort Greene alone."
That?

01:04:53.360 --> 01:04:56.478
I never forget anything, believe me.
Like, not a single word.

01:04:58.640 --> 01:05:01.314
I'm really sorry.
I can't help it, I got a...

01:05:01.480 --> 01:05:02.800
It's okay.

01:05:02.880 --> 01:05:04.997
Just write about it, please.

01:05:05.800 --> 01:05:07.376
What happens to
poor people in this city,

01:05:07.400 --> 01:05:09.551
wasn't news yesterday
and it won't be tomorrow,

01:05:10.040 --> 01:05:12.635
but you'd think somebody'd care
what happens to Brooklyn.

01:05:13.160 --> 01:05:15.311
It's only the biggest city on Earth.

01:05:18.320 --> 01:05:19.320
Where you live?

01:05:20.680 --> 01:05:21.680
Harlem.

01:05:22.520 --> 01:05:23.749
This is me.

01:05:24.760 --> 01:05:26.080
You want me to give you a ride?

01:05:27.840 --> 01:05:30.080
Come on, the trains will be mobbed.
I'll give you a ride.

01:05:31.360 --> 01:05:32.360
Come on.

01:06:03.600 --> 01:06:06.434
Bebop, Bailey,
in the Metropolitan Bopera House!

01:06:06.520 --> 01:06:08.398
Oh, God.

01:06:08.560 --> 01:06:10.870
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

01:06:11.040 --> 01:06:13.475
Don't be sorry.
It's kinda funny.

01:06:13.640 --> 01:06:17.236
Yeah? Well, hang around a little while,
and see what you think.

01:06:21.800 --> 01:06:22.800
If!

01:06:23.560 --> 01:06:25.313
What is all that, anyway?

01:06:25.480 --> 01:06:27.949
I don't know. I never got a name for it.

01:06:28.800 --> 01:06:31.360
It's like a piece in my head broke off
and got a life of its own,

01:06:31.400 --> 01:06:34.154
and then just decided
to keep joyridin' me for kicks.

01:06:34.960 --> 01:06:36.235
Kicks and tics!

01:06:37.080 --> 01:06:38.833
Licks and tics!
Sorry.

01:06:39.640 --> 01:06:40.915
It's okay.

01:06:41.080 --> 01:06:42.912
It's like living with an anarchist,

01:06:44.160 --> 01:06:47.915
but the funny thing is, it also has
to have everything in its right place.

01:06:48.080 --> 01:06:51.915
Like, things have to be ordered
and lined up just right.

01:06:52.080 --> 01:06:54.595
Everything has to sound just right
or else it really,

01:06:54.960 --> 01:06:57.429
it'll really put me into knots
until I fix it.

01:06:57.600 --> 01:06:59.751
Like, I'm talkin' to you
right now, right?

01:06:59.920 --> 01:07:01.354
But that part of my head,

01:07:01.520 --> 01:07:03.591
it's worryin' that
the bills in my wallet

01:07:03.720 --> 01:07:05.791
aren't lined up
all in the right sequence,

01:07:06.000 --> 01:07:08.754
and it's sayin', "Stop talkin'
to this girl, and deal with this."

01:07:08.960 --> 01:07:10.030
It's not fair.

01:07:10.960 --> 01:07:14.351
Hey, we all got
our daily battles, right?

01:07:16.320 --> 01:07:17.595
Yeah, fair enough.

01:07:22.280 --> 01:07:23.794
Kiss her face all night, Bailey!

01:07:24.320 --> 01:07:25.320
Oh, God.

01:07:27.640 --> 01:07:28.710
I'm...

01:07:28.880 --> 01:07:30.160
- I really am sorry.
- It's okay.

01:07:30.280 --> 01:07:32.397
- I don't mean nothin' by it.
- Don't be sorry.

01:07:32.560 --> 01:07:33.994
It's okay.

01:07:41.280 --> 01:07:44.352
<i>There are those whose dreams</i>

01:07:44.440 --> 01:07:48.559
<i>are shattered, Mama</i>

01:07:50.080 --> 01:07:57.032
<i>Some search in vain
for long lost romance</i>

01:07:57.200 --> 01:07:58.316
This is me.

01:07:58.480 --> 01:08:01.234
What, up from that?
That must keep you up nights.

01:08:01.400 --> 01:08:03.153
My father owns the place.

01:08:03.320 --> 01:08:05.835
I grew up falling asleep
in the back of clubs.

01:08:06.680 --> 01:08:08.512
It's pretty hoppin' for a Monday night.

01:08:08.680 --> 01:08:10.672
Hottest band in the world, all week.

01:08:12.160 --> 01:08:13.230
Listen,

01:08:13.840 --> 01:08:16.150
I gotta check on one or two things,

01:08:16.840 --> 01:08:19.833
but are you really interested
in what I was telling you?

01:08:21.200 --> 01:08:23.192
Yeah, I came lookin' for you, didn't I?

01:08:24.400 --> 01:08:27.074
If you wanna come in,
I could give you a lot more.

01:08:29.520 --> 01:08:32.831
I don't tend to do so good
in places like this.

01:08:33.040 --> 01:08:34.793
Come on, you can't exactly
disturb the peace

01:08:34.920 --> 01:08:36.354
in a small club with a hot band.

01:08:38.920 --> 01:08:39.920
All right.

01:08:41.040 --> 01:08:42.394
It's your party.

01:08:50.200 --> 01:08:51.953
Keep an eye on it for me,
all right?

01:09:01.040 --> 01:09:02.076
Hey, Vance.

01:09:11.760 --> 01:09:13.319
Hey, you, out.

01:09:16.320 --> 01:09:17.470
- Hey, George.
- Hey, girl.

01:09:17.640 --> 01:09:18.640
Welcome.

01:09:21.080 --> 01:09:22.230
I'll be right back.

01:09:23.320 --> 01:09:24.320
If!

01:09:25.960 --> 01:09:28.236
Excuse me? Sir?

01:09:28.760 --> 01:09:31.070
I'm sorry. I'm a player, too.

01:09:31.240 --> 01:09:34.597
And, you know what, man?
I really, really admire your tremolo.

01:09:34.760 --> 01:09:38.117
And I'm just curious,
how did you develop that tremolo?

01:09:39.240 --> 01:09:41.357
Suckin' off little white boys like you.

01:09:41.920 --> 01:09:43.593
Get the fuck out of here.

01:09:43.960 --> 01:09:45.917
So what? Whitey White suck stick!

01:09:47.480 --> 01:09:48.914
"So what" is right.

01:10:05.280 --> 01:10:06.111
Listen to me. Listen!

01:10:06.200 --> 01:10:07.456
How y'all doin' this evenin'?

01:10:07.480 --> 01:10:09.870
Feels good to be home
with friends and family.

01:10:10.040 --> 01:10:11.633
I been travelin' the world,

01:10:12.880 --> 01:10:14.633
learnin' new languages,

01:10:15.880 --> 01:10:18.475
and with new language comes new ideas.

01:10:19.040 --> 01:10:21.714
So, we gonna try a few of them
on y'all tonight.

01:10:21.880 --> 01:10:23.109
Strap in.

01:10:33.320 --> 01:10:34.320
If!

01:10:34.720 --> 01:10:36.320
You sure you don't wanna
sit in the back?

01:10:36.400 --> 01:10:37.675
Vance?

01:10:41.360 --> 01:10:43.238
Trumpet player's a jazzmatazz!

01:10:44.680 --> 01:10:47.479
Can we just sit in the back?
Let's sit in the back.

01:10:47.840 --> 01:10:48.990
No one cares.

01:10:59.680 --> 01:11:00.680
Ah!

01:11:03.360 --> 01:11:05.556
It's better 'cause I can control
what's on it.

01:11:05.720 --> 01:11:07.677
Okay, you need to get out more.

01:11:12.720 --> 01:11:13.720
Oh!

01:11:31.360 --> 01:11:33.352
- You wanna get up there?
- No, I don't. I don't.

01:11:33.520 --> 01:11:35.591
It's causin' me problems.

01:11:58.160 --> 01:11:59.276
Don't put your hands on me.

01:11:59.440 --> 01:12:03.480
There she is, my favorite baby girl,
looking pretty as a rose.

01:12:04.240 --> 01:12:06.311
This next one's for you, Laura.

01:12:32.480 --> 01:12:34.256
I don't think I can do this. It's not...

01:12:34.280 --> 01:12:35.953
It's okay. It's okay.

01:12:40.440 --> 01:12:42.955
If! It's not a good idea.

01:13:48.760 --> 01:13:49.910
Where is she?

01:14:42.600 --> 01:14:44.398
I'm just gonna deal with something.

01:14:54.280 --> 01:14:55.280
What's goin' on?

01:14:55.440 --> 01:14:58.080
All right, y'all, don't get too cozy.
That was your last break.

01:15:13.680 --> 01:15:14.680
Oh!

01:15:16.680 --> 01:15:17.680
If!

01:15:34.200 --> 01:15:35.200
Hey!

01:15:35.880 --> 01:15:37.633
Hey, take it easy, take it easy!

01:15:38.600 --> 01:15:40.637
Jesus, what'd I do?

01:15:42.280 --> 01:15:43.475
I said, let's go!

01:15:43.680 --> 01:15:45.876
- Tell it to the fuckin' judge!
- Take it easy.

01:15:46.040 --> 01:15:48.271
- Shut up!
- Hey, I got this.

01:15:50.800 --> 01:15:52.720
You think I don't know
who you work for, cracker?

01:15:52.800 --> 01:15:54.496
- Black cracker, crack-whacker!
- Hey,

01:15:54.520 --> 01:15:55.936
I made it through Iwo Jima,
motherfucker!

01:15:55.960 --> 01:15:57.314
You think your boss scares me?

01:15:57.480 --> 01:16:00.314
Now you tell him that if I see
any of you snoops around her again,

01:16:00.480 --> 01:16:02.517
I will kill you off one at a time,

01:16:02.680 --> 01:16:05.320
and I will mail what he's lookin' for
to the <i>Post</i> for free!

01:16:05.480 --> 01:16:07.836
Do you hear me?
I will mail it to the <i>Post!</i>

01:16:09.400 --> 01:16:10.400
Let's go.

01:16:12.800 --> 01:16:13.800
If!

01:16:14.080 --> 01:16:15.080
If!

01:16:30.920 --> 01:16:32.559
Meow, the tomcat!

01:16:33.600 --> 01:16:35.353
Scarlet, the scared cat!

01:16:42.840 --> 01:16:43.990
Trumpet, my man!

01:16:48.120 --> 01:16:49.270
Hep cat needs help!

01:16:50.280 --> 01:16:51.509
Help for the hep cat!

01:16:53.200 --> 01:16:55.351
You were pretty hep
in there tonight yourself, cat.

01:16:55.520 --> 01:16:56.520
Help!

01:16:56.680 --> 01:16:58.194
The hep cat needs help!

01:17:03.720 --> 01:17:04.720
If!

01:17:08.720 --> 01:17:10.757
What, your head need fixin', too?

01:17:11.280 --> 01:17:12.280
Yeah.

01:17:12.360 --> 01:17:14.955
Whoa, whoa. Wait, now,
this ain't just no marijuana.

01:17:15.600 --> 01:17:16.875
It's all right.

01:17:50.240 --> 01:17:51.993
You remember what I said.

01:18:16.520 --> 01:18:17.590
Oh, God.

01:18:19.120 --> 01:18:20.120
Shit.

01:18:21.120 --> 01:18:22.120
Sorry.

01:18:23.040 --> 01:18:25.271
Sorry, I don't even know what happened.

01:18:25.440 --> 01:18:27.272
You had a good time,
that's what happened.

01:18:28.320 --> 01:18:29.320
Had a little party.

01:18:30.040 --> 01:18:32.430
Different mix of people than the usual.

01:18:33.280 --> 01:18:36.876
She called it a <i>étrange mélange.</i>

01:18:38.200 --> 01:18:41.477
Thought you could use some rest,
so we just let you be.

01:18:41.920 --> 01:18:42.920
Ohh!

01:18:43.560 --> 01:18:44.560
Yeah.

01:18:44.680 --> 01:18:47.354
That guy left his footprint on my ribs,
I remember that part.

01:18:47.440 --> 01:18:49.636
Thanks for bailin' me out of there.

01:18:49.800 --> 01:18:51.678
Sarge is a good man,

01:18:52.480 --> 01:18:54.995
but you gotta watch how you are
around a man's family,

01:18:55.160 --> 01:18:56.160
you know what I'm sayin'?

01:18:56.320 --> 01:18:57.356
Who's Sarge?

01:18:57.520 --> 01:18:59.637
- Billy.
- Why you call him "Sarge"?

01:18:59.800 --> 01:19:01.917
You don't know how he got his arm
all fucked up?

01:19:02.000 --> 01:19:02.831
Mmm-mmm.

01:19:02.920 --> 01:19:05.355
Colored Marine Unit, carryin' ammo,

01:19:05.520 --> 01:19:06.920
and one day, he picked up a gun

01:19:07.000 --> 01:19:10.072
tryin' to stop a Jap suicide attack,
got hit.

01:19:10.400 --> 01:19:12.676
Came back from that war bitter as hell.

01:19:13.200 --> 01:19:15.317
Damn shame, too, 'cause he could play.

01:19:16.200 --> 01:19:18.078
- Trombone.
- Hmm.

01:19:18.160 --> 01:19:21.358
He used to jam with us down at Minton's
back in the '40s.

01:19:22.520 --> 01:19:24.273
You ever met his wife?

01:19:24.720 --> 01:19:26.279
Sarge ain't never married.

01:19:26.440 --> 01:19:27.715
What about Laura's mother?

01:19:27.880 --> 01:19:29.712
I don't know nothin' about that.

01:19:29.880 --> 01:19:31.599
It was just Laura and him.

01:19:31.760 --> 01:19:33.433
She was a tiny little thing,

01:19:33.600 --> 01:19:36.354
always in the kitchen,
readin' while we was playin'.

01:19:37.680 --> 01:19:38.955
You play?

01:19:39.360 --> 01:19:40.680
Music? No.

01:19:40.880 --> 01:19:44.237
Now, I'm not so keen on people
bein' vocal while we playin',

01:19:45.680 --> 01:19:47.194
but you was on the line.

01:19:47.720 --> 01:19:48.720
I could hear it.

01:19:48.880 --> 01:19:51.395
On the line, Lionel.
Lionel's on the line.

01:19:52.240 --> 01:19:53.515
Sorry, I...

01:19:53.720 --> 01:19:55.632
I got somethin' wrong with my head,

01:19:56.560 --> 01:19:59.712
and the music really, really set it off.
I'm sorry.

01:19:59.880 --> 01:20:00.916
Don't be sorry.

01:20:01.400 --> 01:20:03.278
You got a head just like mine,

01:20:03.720 --> 01:20:05.439
always boilin' over.

01:20:06.320 --> 01:20:08.039
Turnin' things around.

01:20:09.320 --> 01:20:10.470
But that's music.

01:20:10.640 --> 01:20:13.633
Controls you more than you control it,
once it gets in you.

01:20:14.160 --> 01:20:17.437
Some people call it a gift, but it's
a brain affliction just the same.

01:20:17.600 --> 01:20:19.432
Yeah, well, I just twitch and shout.

01:20:19.600 --> 01:20:21.637
At least you got a horn
to push it through,

01:20:21.800 --> 01:20:23.075
make it sound pretty.

01:20:23.320 --> 01:20:26.552
Yeah, but there's a lot of other hours
in the day, though.

01:20:26.720 --> 01:20:28.279
You know what I'm sayin'?

01:20:28.440 --> 01:20:29.794
Too many.

01:20:38.920 --> 01:20:40.400
Look, thanks for helpin' me out.

01:20:40.600 --> 01:20:42.910
You ever need anything,
you give me a call.

01:20:50.600 --> 01:20:51.600
Excuse me.

01:20:52.280 --> 01:20:53.509
Miss Horowitz,

01:20:53.680 --> 01:20:55.656
- Jake Gleason with the <i>Post...</i>
- You're not Jake Gleason.

01:20:55.680 --> 01:20:56.909
I know Jake Gleason.

01:20:57.120 --> 01:20:59.416
Jake Gleason took me
to the Hamilton hearing the other night.

01:20:59.440 --> 01:21:01.079
- I heard you speak.
- Oh.

01:21:01.160 --> 01:21:03.117
I'm a new writer with the <i>Times.</i>

01:21:03.280 --> 01:21:06.432
I got a very illuminating tour
from your aide, Laura Rose.

01:21:06.600 --> 01:21:08.800
She showed me everything
that's goin' on in Fort Greene.

01:21:09.120 --> 01:21:11.191
- I'm very interested in this story.
- Really?

01:21:11.360 --> 01:21:13.080
I thought that the <i>Times</i>
was more interested

01:21:13.120 --> 01:21:14.793
in being the press office for the BA.

01:21:14.960 --> 01:21:16.679
I'm not saying
I can make it A1 tomorrow,

01:21:16.840 --> 01:21:19.336
but if I don't get some help on
the legwork, how can I try, right?

01:21:19.360 --> 01:21:21.477
Well, someone's gonna win a Pulitzer
off that story.

01:21:21.640 --> 01:21:22.640
Maybe it'll be you.

01:21:23.120 --> 01:21:24.315
If!
Sorry.

01:21:24.960 --> 01:21:27.680
She's already gone ahead to the protest.

01:21:27.840 --> 01:21:29.320
You wanna come with me?

01:21:29.800 --> 01:21:32.031
I want you
to hear this next speaker

01:21:32.120 --> 01:21:33.679
and listen to what she has to say.

01:21:33.840 --> 01:21:36.958
She has taught me more about fightin'
the good fight than anyone else.

01:21:37.160 --> 01:21:38.296
Look, I brought <i>The New York Times.</i>

01:21:38.320 --> 01:21:40.994
She wears granny glasses,
but don't be fooled!

01:21:42.080 --> 01:21:45.152
She is a pit bull for the people!

01:21:45.320 --> 01:21:48.154
And let me just say this,
let me just say this,

01:21:48.320 --> 01:21:50.312
I want you to hear this.

01:21:50.920 --> 01:21:53.480
- Let's not mince words.
- No!

01:21:53.640 --> 01:21:58.999
'Cause we are livin' in a time that
calls for naming things as they are.

01:21:59.160 --> 01:22:00.160
Yes!

01:22:00.240 --> 01:22:04.029
This is not a program for slum removal.

01:22:04.200 --> 01:22:05.031
No!

01:22:05.200 --> 01:22:08.671
This is a program for Negro removal!

01:22:08.840 --> 01:22:09.840
Yeah!

01:22:09.880 --> 01:22:11.280
And we're not gonna accept that!

01:22:11.440 --> 01:22:12.271
No!

01:22:12.440 --> 01:22:14.796
Ladies and gentlemen, Gabby Horowitz!

01:22:19.360 --> 01:22:20.840
What is a city?

01:22:21.040 --> 01:22:25.592
Is it a place where people slave
for the lords of steel and concrete?

01:22:25.760 --> 01:22:26.760
No!

01:22:26.920 --> 01:22:30.675
A corral for the druids
of finance to fleece mankind in?

01:22:30.880 --> 01:22:31.880
No!

01:22:31.960 --> 01:22:34.111
A city is its people!

01:22:34.280 --> 01:22:35.111
Yeah!

01:22:35.280 --> 01:22:38.512
- It is its community!
- Yeah!

01:22:38.880 --> 01:22:40.951
Who's gonna stand up for the city?

01:22:41.120 --> 01:22:42.349
We are!

01:22:42.560 --> 01:22:46.952
Who's going to remind the politicians
and the power brokers and the profiteers

01:22:47.120 --> 01:22:51.592
that the city belongs to the people
who live in it?

01:22:52.760 --> 01:22:55.912
Mo must go! Mo must go!

01:22:56.600 --> 01:22:59.069
I've never seen
such horseshit in my life.

01:22:59.560 --> 01:23:02.553
Mo must go! Mo must go!

01:23:02.920 --> 01:23:05.480
We may have an issue
with our friend from Brooklyn.

01:23:05.640 --> 01:23:06.869
He's asserting himself.

01:23:07.080 --> 01:23:08.080
How so?

01:23:08.240 --> 01:23:09.760
Well, he's not here for this <i>mishigas.</i>

01:23:09.960 --> 01:23:12.376
He's not that brave, but he still
might not go along with the vote.

01:23:12.400 --> 01:23:14.073
Says his constituency is up in arms.

01:23:14.240 --> 01:23:17.153
We made him the borough president.
We put him on the Board of Estimate.

01:23:17.320 --> 01:23:20.233
We're his constituency.
Don't tell me he's not gonna go along.

01:23:21.320 --> 01:23:22.320
Hey,

01:23:22.920 --> 01:23:25.754
I'm gonna hand him this
the day before the vote.

01:23:26.600 --> 01:23:27.600
He'll go along.

01:23:29.080 --> 01:23:30.150
He's a louse.

01:23:30.320 --> 01:23:33.631
Mo must go! Mo must go!

01:23:39.920 --> 01:23:41.115
Let's go have lunch.

01:23:42.840 --> 01:23:43.840
Jake?

01:23:44.920 --> 01:23:46.149
Hey, Jake!

01:23:47.440 --> 01:23:48.760
Ah. It's the disappearing lady.

01:23:48.960 --> 01:23:50.519
I'm so sorry. I owe you an...

01:23:50.680 --> 01:23:52.136
You don't owe me nothin'.
I'm used to it.

01:23:52.160 --> 01:23:54.152
No, no, I tried to find you. I...

01:23:54.320 --> 01:23:55.840
- I want to explain...
- Laura!

01:23:56.440 --> 01:23:57.715
You gotta go. It's all right.

01:23:57.880 --> 01:23:59.280
Yeah, listen, I...

01:23:59.440 --> 01:24:00.560
I'll be at the club tonight.

01:24:01.200 --> 01:24:02.200
Come find me.

01:24:02.320 --> 01:24:04.120
- I'll see if I can.
- Laura, come on!

01:24:05.560 --> 01:24:06.560
Come.

01:24:10.640 --> 01:24:11.790
Hey, hey, hold up.

01:24:11.960 --> 01:24:15.351
The reporter that never reports.
Do I gotta write it for you? Jesus.

01:24:15.560 --> 01:24:16.776
You're not too ambitious, are you?

01:24:16.800 --> 01:24:18.136
I'm still puttin' the details together.

01:24:18.160 --> 01:24:20.470
- Tell me somethin'.
- Here's your next headline,

01:24:20.640 --> 01:24:24.156
"New expressway will be the world's
biggest parking lot."

01:24:24.320 --> 01:24:26.471
- What? Why?
- Because cars are a cancer,

01:24:26.640 --> 01:24:30.156
and roads make them metastasize,
not shrink. We need trains.

01:24:30.320 --> 01:24:32.312
- But he's killin' the trains.
- Why?

01:24:32.480 --> 01:24:34.836
Always with the "why."
Because he doesn't control

01:24:35.000 --> 01:24:36.354
the revenues from the trains.

01:24:36.520 --> 01:24:39.638
He controls the tolls
for the bridges and roads.

01:24:39.840 --> 01:24:42.071
Borough Authority.
You know what an "Authority" is?

01:24:42.240 --> 01:24:44.038
- No.
- Neither did anyone else.

01:24:44.200 --> 01:24:46.874
He invented it.
A fourth branch of government.

01:24:47.040 --> 01:24:48.156
A shadow branch.

01:24:48.320 --> 01:24:50.835
All controlled by him,
meaning he controls everything,

01:24:51.000 --> 01:24:53.720
but nobody voted for him,
and they can't vote him out.

01:24:53.880 --> 01:24:55.712
Wait, wait, wait.
What could stop him?

01:24:55.880 --> 01:24:56.880
Almost nothing.

01:24:57.040 --> 01:24:59.077
- And he's more dangerous now than ever.
- Why now?

01:24:59.280 --> 01:25:00.999
'Cause the Board of Estimate votes on

01:25:01.080 --> 01:25:02.920
his highway and slum clearance
plans this week,

01:25:03.000 --> 01:25:04.992
so he's bullyin' everyone
into submission!

01:25:05.200 --> 01:25:08.079
He's the most powerful man
in the history of the city!

01:25:08.280 --> 01:25:11.079
He's an autocratic Caesar,
but nobody realizes it.

01:25:11.240 --> 01:25:14.870
They are just all walking around,
calm as Hindu cows,

01:25:15.040 --> 01:25:17.350
thinking they live in a democracy,
so what could happen?

01:25:17.520 --> 01:25:18.696
Are you gonna write about this or what?

01:25:18.720 --> 01:25:21.713
If you know so much about him,
why haven't you taken him down?

01:25:22.120 --> 01:25:23.270
Because it can't be me.

01:25:23.440 --> 01:25:24.920
No, 'cause you're his brother.

01:25:29.120 --> 01:25:32.352
No, because I still have dreams.

01:25:33.080 --> 01:25:34.080
That's why.

01:25:34.240 --> 01:25:36.709
Dreams that I am
this close to realizing.

01:25:36.880 --> 01:25:39.793
It's my contribution to society.

01:25:39.960 --> 01:25:41.314
My legacy!

01:25:41.800 --> 01:25:42.800
I'm...

01:25:43.280 --> 01:25:44.714
I'm not gonna risk it.

01:25:45.960 --> 01:25:47.394
All right.

01:25:49.720 --> 01:25:51.552
Okay, here,

01:25:53.160 --> 01:25:57.552
look at Belmont Developers
and Inwood Residential.

01:25:58.240 --> 01:25:59.240
What's all that?

01:25:59.720 --> 01:26:03.760
Oh, God, I'm givin' the goods.
A map to the scoop of the decade!

01:26:03.920 --> 01:26:05.479
Do your damn job!

01:26:05.920 --> 01:26:07.149
Do the job!

01:26:07.320 --> 01:26:09.437
I got enough problems.

01:26:12.520 --> 01:26:13.520
Records Office.

01:26:14.280 --> 01:26:16.158
Sorry, I'll need to see
your identification

01:26:16.240 --> 01:26:17.480
and have you sign into the log.

01:26:17.640 --> 01:26:20.160
I'm just gonna read it right here, pal.
I'm not checkin' it out.

01:26:20.240 --> 01:26:21.416
See, parties wishing to review

01:26:21.440 --> 01:26:23.272
incorporation materials
of city contractors,

01:26:23.440 --> 01:26:25.656
need to register with
the construction commissioner's office.

01:26:25.680 --> 01:26:27.194
That can't be legal.

01:26:27.360 --> 01:26:29.636
Not really a law,
more of a rule, Mister...

01:26:29.800 --> 01:26:30.800
Gleason.

01:27:03.160 --> 01:27:04.640
- Good evening.
- Hey,

01:27:05.000 --> 01:27:07.356
so I can get my housing relocation forms
here, yeah?

01:27:07.520 --> 01:27:08.795
Yeah, just there.

01:27:08.960 --> 01:27:10.360
And you can mail those in?

01:27:10.800 --> 01:27:13.713
In-person relocation applications only.
Over there.

01:27:15.840 --> 01:27:18.071
So, they left you runnin'
this whole operation

01:27:18.240 --> 01:27:19.310
by yourself, did they?

01:27:19.480 --> 01:27:20.630
They did, indeed.

01:27:20.800 --> 01:27:22.359
Uh, big tits!

01:27:22.840 --> 01:27:23.840
Bless you.

01:27:24.920 --> 01:27:26.877
You have a good evening.
Thanks for your help.

01:27:27.640 --> 01:27:28.676
Wait, your form!

01:28:13.440 --> 01:28:17.719
People's trash remains private property
until it's been collected,

01:28:17.880 --> 01:28:19.473
didn't anybody ever tell you that?

01:28:20.360 --> 01:28:21.555
Wait a minute.

01:28:21.720 --> 01:28:23.871
We've seen each other before, ain't we?

01:28:24.040 --> 01:28:25.110
Ain't we seen him?

01:28:25.720 --> 01:28:27.040
Yeah, we seen him.

01:28:28.280 --> 01:28:30.080
You keep stickin' your nose
in people's trash,

01:28:30.240 --> 01:28:31.879
and we're gonna see you again.

01:28:37.160 --> 01:28:39.072
Giant, faggot munchkin meat!

01:28:40.000 --> 01:28:41.000
Oh. Okay.

01:28:42.920 --> 01:28:43.920
See,

01:28:44.400 --> 01:28:47.279
I was told to go easy,
and I did,

01:28:47.920 --> 01:28:51.118
and now, you gotta go
and make me do this!

01:28:51.760 --> 01:28:54.056
They're not even pretending,
they're just collecting the checks,

01:28:54.080 --> 01:28:55.920
and throwing these people's lives
in the trash.

01:28:56.000 --> 01:28:59.072
These guys make Tammany look like
Double-A ball, I'm tellin' you.

01:28:59.240 --> 01:29:02.517
People make deals with politicians
for contracts all the time.

01:29:02.680 --> 01:29:04.656
All right? Kickin' it up the chain.
It's the nature of the thing.

01:29:04.680 --> 01:29:07.640
They're not makin' deals with people,
they're makin' deals with themselves!

01:29:07.760 --> 01:29:10.480
They own the companies, they're giving
contracts to it and kickbacks.

01:29:10.640 --> 01:29:11.640
It's grand larceny.

01:29:11.800 --> 01:29:13.439
- Land a farce on me!
- Calm down.

01:29:13.600 --> 01:29:15.816
- Don't fart on my land, man!
- You got any weed? Give him a smoke.

01:29:15.840 --> 01:29:17.736
Minna said it was the biggest
gravy train of the century,

01:29:17.760 --> 01:29:18.591
and he said...

01:29:18.760 --> 01:29:20.136
And this all goes down in two days.

01:29:20.160 --> 01:29:22.994
So, it's big stuff,
but how's Frank mixed up in it?

01:29:23.160 --> 01:29:25.936
Every officer of the Borough Authority
is gonna make millions on this deal,

01:29:25.960 --> 01:29:27.560
- but none of it ties to him.
- To Frank?

01:29:27.600 --> 01:29:29.273
- To Randolph.
- The parks commissioner?

01:29:29.440 --> 01:29:30.510
Yeah, Moses Randolph.

01:29:30.680 --> 01:29:33.673
He's behind everything.
He's the one who controls it all.

01:29:33.840 --> 01:29:35.776
Okay, listen, the girl had the line
on the scam, right?

01:29:35.800 --> 01:29:37.416
She was the one
diggin' into all these companies

01:29:37.440 --> 01:29:38.715
for the committee and Horowitz.

01:29:38.880 --> 01:29:42.112
I think she found something that ties
Randolph straight to the money.

01:29:42.280 --> 01:29:44.476
Frank was followin' her,
and he figured it out,

01:29:44.640 --> 01:29:45.551
and he took it in to Lieberman
and his goons,

01:29:45.640 --> 01:29:46.471
and he showed them,

01:29:46.640 --> 01:29:48.120
he had his signature on somethin'.

01:29:48.320 --> 01:29:51.711
I think Frank had somethin'
that nails Randolph.

01:29:54.480 --> 01:29:55.960
Come on! Come on!

01:29:56.360 --> 01:29:57.510
Where did we lose 'em?

01:29:57.680 --> 01:29:59.640
- On the bridge.
- On the Borough Bridge.

01:29:59.800 --> 01:30:03.032
Those guys were Borough Authority!
The Borough Authority killed Frank!

01:30:03.200 --> 01:30:04.350
Fuckin' Lionel.

01:30:04.520 --> 01:30:06.120
I think you're really on the sniff,
I do.

01:30:06.520 --> 01:30:07.431
All right, but one thing,

01:30:07.520 --> 01:30:09.477
what's the angle on this other guy
with the club?

01:30:09.640 --> 01:30:11.871
Her father? The fuck was Frank
talkin' to him about?

01:30:12.000 --> 01:30:14.037
I don't know.
That part, I haven't figured out.

01:30:14.200 --> 01:30:16.669
It doesn't make any sense,
but he knows somethin'.

01:30:17.000 --> 01:30:18.036
He knows somethin'.

01:30:18.600 --> 01:30:19.750
All right, go home.

01:30:21.160 --> 01:30:22.680
I'm gonna make some calls around town.

01:30:22.840 --> 01:30:24.559
Wait, who? What?
Who you gonna call?

01:30:25.240 --> 01:30:27.311
Would you just trust me,
and let me run with it?

01:30:33.520 --> 01:30:34.856
<i>Frank was
the only person I knew</i>

01:30:34.880 --> 01:30:37.759
<i>who thought the way we won the war
was gonna cause us problems.</i>

01:30:38.680 --> 01:30:39.591
<i>He said, after the Crash,</i>

01:30:39.680 --> 01:30:42.195
<i>we were diggin' ourselves out
by taking care of each other.</i>

01:30:42.840 --> 01:30:45.355
<i>Now that we'd seen what we could do
with our brute strength,</i>

01:30:45.520 --> 01:30:47.193
<i>there was no goin' back.</i>

01:30:47.360 --> 01:30:48.589
<i>He said, from here on out,</i>

01:30:48.680 --> 01:30:51.400
<i>the game's gonna be about power
from top to bottom.</i>

01:31:04.040 --> 01:31:05.040
Yeah?

01:31:05.360 --> 01:31:06.760
<i>I know who you are.</i>

01:31:06.880 --> 01:31:07.880
Who's this?

01:31:08.040 --> 01:31:09.713
<i>You're one of Minna's boys.</i>

01:31:10.240 --> 01:31:11.276
Who's Minna?

01:31:11.480 --> 01:31:12.550
<i>Don't bullshit me.</i>

01:31:12.720 --> 01:31:14.871
<i>You gave your number
to the man with the horn.</i>

01:31:15.040 --> 01:31:16.474
<i>Sorry about roughin' you up.</i>

01:31:16.640 --> 01:31:18.393
<i>I thought you was one of 'em BA goons.</i>

01:31:18.560 --> 01:31:20.233
Yeah, okay. So, what?

01:31:20.880 --> 01:31:22.234
<i>Where's the envelope?</i>

01:31:23.400 --> 01:31:24.720
I don't know. What's in it?

01:31:25.080 --> 01:31:26.878
<i>Hold on.</i>

01:31:27.480 --> 01:31:29.551
<i>Look, we can't talk about it like this.</i>

01:31:29.720 --> 01:31:31.393
<i>It's too complicated.</i>

01:31:31.560 --> 01:31:32.560
<i>Meet me up at the club.</i>

01:31:32.720 --> 01:31:35.076
<i>Park up the block
and come in the back.</i>

01:31:35.240 --> 01:31:36.240
<i>I'll let you in there.</i>

01:31:36.400 --> 01:31:38.312
- What, now?
<i>- Yeah, now.</i>

01:31:39.920 --> 01:31:40.920
Okay.

01:32:15.680 --> 01:32:16.680
Billy?

01:32:24.960 --> 01:32:25.960
Hey.

01:32:34.000 --> 01:32:35.000
Billy.

01:32:42.880 --> 01:32:44.030
Shit.

01:32:51.000 --> 01:32:52.280
Son of a...

01:33:00.560 --> 01:33:02.870
All right, so, uh, he told you to come,

01:33:03.040 --> 01:33:04.110
then he bumped himself

01:33:04.200 --> 01:33:06.320
so you could find him
before the staff came, probably.

01:33:06.480 --> 01:33:09.154
No, I told you, I didn't just find him,
I heard it happen, okay?

01:33:09.320 --> 01:33:11.710
He didn't shoot himself.
Shoot my shit, Bailey!

01:33:11.880 --> 01:33:13.280
Sorry. Look, someone else did this.

01:33:13.320 --> 01:33:14.976
They tried to make it look like
he did it to himself,

01:33:15.000 --> 01:33:16.000
but I heard 'em leave.

01:33:16.160 --> 01:33:17.576
Okay, we got powder burns on the shirt,

01:33:17.600 --> 01:33:19.990
point-blank, neighbors saying
he got money problems.

01:33:20.160 --> 01:33:21.336
Seems pretty straightforward, my friend.

01:33:21.360 --> 01:33:23.238
The gun was in his right hand.

01:33:23.400 --> 01:33:25.710
- So?
- His right arm is like a dead fish.

01:33:25.880 --> 01:33:27.599
He has a war wound, ace, okay?

01:33:27.760 --> 01:33:29.831
He couldn't lift a Zippo,
let alone a.38.

01:33:29.920 --> 01:33:30.797
So, explain to me,

01:33:30.880 --> 01:33:32.936
how'd he shoot himself in the heart
with his left hand,

01:33:32.960 --> 01:33:35.191
and then hand it off to his right
before he punched out?

01:33:36.600 --> 01:33:37.920
Look, guy went out on,

01:33:38.080 --> 01:33:40.276
his own joint's center stage
with the lights and all,

01:33:40.440 --> 01:33:42.591
gotta gave him credit,
give him respect.

01:33:44.040 --> 01:33:47.716
They usually send Division dicks
up to Harlem at 3:00 a.m. for a suicide?

01:33:47.880 --> 01:33:49.280
We go wherever we're needed.

01:33:50.440 --> 01:33:51.510
Can I go now?

01:33:51.680 --> 01:33:52.680
Yeah.

01:33:54.160 --> 01:33:55.160
Oh, no!

01:33:55.320 --> 01:33:57.755
- No, no, no.
- No, no!

01:34:32.720 --> 01:34:35.554
I can't remember the last time
I saw him smile,

01:34:37.320 --> 01:34:38.959
but why would he do that?

01:34:40.480 --> 01:34:42.312
- To himself?
- He didn't.

01:34:42.920 --> 01:34:45.355
He didn't. Someone killed him.

01:34:45.520 --> 01:34:46.520
What?

01:34:46.680 --> 01:34:49.593
They tried to make it
look like he did it,

01:34:49.680 --> 01:34:50.680
but someone killed him.

01:34:52.400 --> 01:34:55.040
No, no, nobody hated him like that.
No one.

01:34:55.200 --> 01:34:56.416
I promise you,
I'm tellin' you the truth.

01:34:56.440 --> 01:34:57.576
Who would do something like that?

01:34:57.600 --> 01:34:59.796
The same people that did it
to a friend of mine.

01:35:02.040 --> 01:35:04.794
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

01:35:06.200 --> 01:35:08.271
You got someone that you can call?

01:35:11.360 --> 01:35:12.635
You all alone?

01:35:15.720 --> 01:35:17.154
You got no idea.

01:35:21.520 --> 01:35:22.715
It's okay.

01:35:30.920 --> 01:35:33.833
Can you stay with me a while?

01:35:36.320 --> 01:35:37.720
You want me to?

01:35:52.480 --> 01:35:53.480
If!

01:35:53.680 --> 01:35:55.160
Ah! God, I'm sorry.

01:35:55.320 --> 01:35:56.320
- It's okay.
- Shit.

01:35:57.920 --> 01:35:58.920
I'm...

01:36:00.160 --> 01:36:01.160
I'm sorry. I...

01:36:01.320 --> 01:36:02.936
- I don't know what happened.
- It's okay.

01:36:02.960 --> 01:36:04.519
- You fell asleep.
- It's okay.

01:36:07.800 --> 01:36:09.314
Thank you for staying.

01:36:10.800 --> 01:36:11.950
Yeah, sure.

01:36:18.080 --> 01:36:19.958
I know how you're feelin'.
I really do.

01:36:22.920 --> 01:36:25.355
Pretty soon, you're gonna hear his voice
in your head.

01:36:26.400 --> 01:36:29.154
He's gonna tell you to pull yourself
together and get movin'.

01:36:30.760 --> 01:36:31.955
And when you do,

01:36:32.120 --> 01:36:34.430
you're gonna feel him
smilin' at you again, I promise.

01:36:43.760 --> 01:36:45.479
I really am sorry.

01:36:50.920 --> 01:36:53.515
Why are you being so nice to me?

01:36:55.200 --> 01:36:57.237
Because I think you're a good person.

01:36:59.320 --> 01:37:00.576
You're tryin' to make a difference.

01:37:00.600 --> 01:37:03.479
You actually care about what happens
to other people. I just...

01:37:04.680 --> 01:37:06.478
Not many people can say that.

01:37:07.840 --> 01:37:09.399
It's a good way to be.

01:37:13.560 --> 01:37:14.560
You're sweet.

01:37:18.360 --> 01:37:21.136
I don't think that's how most people
usually describe me when they meet me,

01:37:21.160 --> 01:37:23.197
but I'm glad that you think so.

01:37:26.480 --> 01:37:30.269
Anybody ever tell you
you talk in your sleep?

01:37:33.720 --> 01:37:35.677
I, uh, I never slept with anyone.

01:37:37.800 --> 01:37:39.792
You never slept with anyone?

01:37:41.000 --> 01:37:44.152
I mean, I've been with a few girls,
but just not...

01:37:46.760 --> 01:37:49.832
not the kind who wanna stay
and sleep with me.

01:37:55.640 --> 01:37:56.869
Who's Frank?

01:38:01.000 --> 01:38:02.150
What?

01:38:02.760 --> 01:38:04.911
You said that name
when you were asleep.

01:38:05.080 --> 01:38:06.799
You seemed upset.

01:38:07.800 --> 01:38:09.598
Was he your friend who...

01:38:09.760 --> 01:38:10.910
Yeah, I...

01:38:11.920 --> 01:38:13.513
I worked with him, I...

01:38:13.680 --> 01:38:16.832
I worked for him,
but I met him when I was 12.

01:38:17.560 --> 01:38:20.439
I was at that Catholic home for boys
on DeKalb.

01:38:21.640 --> 01:38:24.553
They threw me in there when I was six,
after my mother died.

01:38:25.800 --> 01:38:26.800
Frank...

01:38:27.960 --> 01:38:31.510
Frank kind of took me under his wing.

01:38:34.320 --> 01:38:36.039
You know, he never called me my name.

01:38:37.560 --> 01:38:38.960
He called me Brooklyn.

01:38:40.480 --> 01:38:44.713
Say, "Look at you, Motherless Brooklyn,
you got no one lookin' out for ya."

01:38:47.240 --> 01:38:49.232
We all need someone lookin' out for us.

01:39:11.640 --> 01:39:13.199
Is that your mother?

01:39:13.680 --> 01:39:15.194
She's beautiful.

01:39:15.960 --> 01:39:17.952
She died a long time ago.

01:39:19.840 --> 01:39:21.320
I don't remember her.

01:39:23.720 --> 01:39:25.996
I guess we both got nobody now.

01:39:26.720 --> 01:39:30.396
Listen, I gotta ask you, is there
something you're not tellin' me?

01:39:30.560 --> 01:39:31.676
What?

01:39:31.840 --> 01:39:33.456
Is there something you're holdin' out,
you and Horowitz?

01:39:33.480 --> 01:39:34.994
On all this housing deal?

01:39:36.400 --> 01:39:37.550
Look, the...

01:39:37.720 --> 01:39:40.155
Those goons at the BA,
they're scared of something, okay?

01:39:40.320 --> 01:39:42.312
There's something big out there

01:39:42.480 --> 01:39:44.856
that has to do with all this fraud
that you've been diggin' around in.

01:39:44.880 --> 01:39:47.236
I think it ties it right up
to Moses Randolph.

01:39:47.720 --> 01:39:49.234
Do you know what it is?

01:39:49.400 --> 01:39:51.392
No, no, I mean,

01:39:51.560 --> 01:39:54.712
somebody's getting rich, but no.

01:39:56.240 --> 01:39:57.515
You gotta take this seriously.

01:39:57.720 --> 01:40:00.056
If you're holdin' on to some card
and you're waitin' to play it,

01:40:00.080 --> 01:40:02.754
to try to block that vote,
you're playin' a dangerous game.

01:40:02.920 --> 01:40:05.230
They already killed Frank,
they killed your father,

01:40:05.400 --> 01:40:07.496
they did this to me last night,
these people aren't gonna stop.

01:40:07.520 --> 01:40:08.760
What's Billy got to do with it?

01:40:08.920 --> 01:40:10.016
He knows something about it.

01:40:10.040 --> 01:40:11.872
No. No, wait, that's not possible.

01:40:12.040 --> 01:40:13.736
He and my friend Frank
were working together on it.

01:40:13.760 --> 01:40:15.080
He doesn't even...

01:40:15.240 --> 01:40:17.755
He didn't even know
what I'm working on.

01:40:18.440 --> 01:40:21.080
I have an uncle who knows Gabby.
He got me that job.

01:40:23.240 --> 01:40:24.416
You're not a reporter, are you?

01:40:24.440 --> 01:40:26.591
No, and my name's not Jake. It's Lionel.

01:40:26.760 --> 01:40:29.195
Look, Frank is an investigator, okay?

01:40:29.360 --> 01:40:30.760
That's who I worked for.

01:40:30.960 --> 01:40:32.917
They hired him to keep tabs
on your committee.

01:40:33.080 --> 01:40:34.594
He was following you.

01:40:35.960 --> 01:40:37.553
I wasn't trying to expose anything.

01:40:37.760 --> 01:40:40.594
I just was poking into it
to try to figure out who killed him,

01:40:41.200 --> 01:40:44.796
and now there's so many goddamn pieces,
it's like I got glass in my brain,

01:40:44.960 --> 01:40:47.111
and I don't even know
what I'm after anymore.

01:40:48.600 --> 01:40:51.877
I'm sorry for lyin' to you,
but you gotta believe what I'm sayin'.

01:40:52.280 --> 01:40:54.920
You're webbed up in this somehow,
and you're in danger.

01:40:55.280 --> 01:40:56.634
Can you stay around here today?

01:40:56.800 --> 01:40:57.950
Gabby's expecting me.

01:40:58.120 --> 01:40:59.793
We're preparing her testimony.

01:40:59.960 --> 01:41:01.280
It's important...

01:41:03.480 --> 01:41:05.392
...but I need to make arrangements.

01:41:06.120 --> 01:41:07.936
- A funeral.
- Look, none of that matters, okay?

01:41:07.960 --> 01:41:09.696
If I'm right, they're gonna
keep a tight lid on it,

01:41:09.720 --> 01:41:12.481
and they won't even let the coroner's
office release his body. Just...

01:41:13.120 --> 01:41:14.156
Please.

01:41:14.320 --> 01:41:16.640
Get one of the guys from the club
to take you down to work.

01:41:17.160 --> 01:41:19.629
Stay around people that you know
for the next few days.

01:41:19.840 --> 01:41:21.274
I'll come and find you.

01:41:22.000 --> 01:41:23.150
Okay?

01:41:26.680 --> 01:41:28.160
Okay, okay.

01:41:28.320 --> 01:41:29.993
All right, all right, all right.

01:41:30.160 --> 01:41:31.230
Take it easy.

01:41:31.400 --> 01:41:34.837
Jeez, they sent the pros today.
I must have hit a nerve.

01:41:56.160 --> 01:41:57.514
Jeez, thanks.

01:42:02.520 --> 01:42:04.352
Hold this for me,
will you, sweetheart?

01:42:24.520 --> 01:42:25.874
You know who I am?

01:42:26.960 --> 01:42:28.679
I've been asking around about that.

01:42:28.880 --> 01:42:31.076
Everyone seems to have
a different answer, though.

01:42:32.360 --> 01:42:34.511
Spoken like a true snoop.

01:42:34.680 --> 01:42:36.512
Well, what's your take on it?

01:42:37.400 --> 01:42:38.400
Easy.

01:42:40.320 --> 01:42:41.549
I'm a builder.

01:42:43.200 --> 01:42:44.554
Yeah, I can see that.

01:42:45.360 --> 01:42:46.555
When I was a boy,

01:42:47.400 --> 01:42:49.960
you know how many bridges there were
on and off Manhattan Island?

01:42:50.200 --> 01:42:51.200
Two.

01:42:51.720 --> 01:42:53.936
A shitty little train trestle here
and the Brooklyn Bridge,

01:42:53.960 --> 01:42:56.840
and when you crossed that, you were
stepping over manure much of the way.

01:42:57.000 --> 01:43:00.676
People mostly scuttled into New York
off of docks, like rats.

01:43:01.640 --> 01:43:03.836
I built that, and that,

01:43:04.240 --> 01:43:05.310
and that,

01:43:05.840 --> 01:43:06.956
and that.

01:43:07.120 --> 01:43:11.558
And now, people vault over rivers
on the spans and parkways of...

01:43:13.120 --> 01:43:15.112
- Olympus.
- Olympic rat-man!

01:43:15.600 --> 01:43:16.600
Sorry.

01:43:17.720 --> 01:43:19.296
They're some pretty bridges,
I'll give you that.

01:43:19.320 --> 01:43:20.390
Thank you.

01:43:20.840 --> 01:43:23.355
I want you to give me something else
if you can find it.

01:43:24.960 --> 01:43:25.960
Have you found it?

01:43:26.520 --> 01:43:27.520
What's in it?

01:43:27.720 --> 01:43:29.393
Slander, falsehood,

01:43:29.560 --> 01:43:30.960
forgery, most likely.

01:43:31.120 --> 01:43:33.696
Well, then, the law's on your side.
You got nothin' to worry about.

01:43:33.720 --> 01:43:37.191
Very little I've achieved in my life
has relied on legality.

01:43:37.840 --> 01:43:40.674
I'm not about to lean
on that slender branch now,

01:43:40.760 --> 01:43:42.752
when things matter most.

01:43:42.920 --> 01:43:44.877
- So, you're above the law? That it?
- No.

01:43:45.840 --> 01:43:46.956
I'm just ahead of it.

01:43:47.120 --> 01:43:48.270
What's the difference?

01:43:48.440 --> 01:43:51.717
Well, the law's a rule book we make
for the times we find ourselves in.

01:43:52.120 --> 01:43:53.839
You rebuild the city, in my experience,

01:43:54.040 --> 01:43:56.839
the law will follow you
and adapt to what you do.

01:43:57.040 --> 01:43:58.816
Yeah, a lot of people like
the city the way it is.

01:43:58.840 --> 01:43:59.956
Who you rebuildin' it for?

01:44:00.920 --> 01:44:01.956
The people to come.

01:44:03.480 --> 01:44:05.233
Fifty, 100 years from now,

01:44:05.400 --> 01:44:07.835
what will matter of what we've done now?

01:44:08.000 --> 01:44:11.277
What will help people
to make science fiction real?

01:44:11.840 --> 01:44:13.274
The laws of today?

01:44:13.840 --> 01:44:17.754
Or roads and bridges and tunnels
for commerce to move swiftly over?

01:44:18.120 --> 01:44:22.239
Beaches and parks to let people escape
the rat race and inspire the mind?

01:44:22.360 --> 01:44:25.558
Palaces of culture where hellish slums
used to be?

01:44:25.720 --> 01:44:27.791
It all sounds pretty grand, I guess,

01:44:28.360 --> 01:44:30.192
unless you happen to be
one of the people

01:44:30.360 --> 01:44:32.875
whose house is in the way right now.

01:44:35.320 --> 01:44:36.834
Central Park,

01:44:37.040 --> 01:44:38.554
the greatest urban park in the world.

01:44:38.720 --> 01:44:40.120
When they started work on that,

01:44:40.200 --> 01:44:41.880
there wasn't even a city
above 57th Street.

01:44:42.240 --> 01:44:45.551
They kicked out farmers
and tenant squatters,

01:44:46.160 --> 01:44:49.198
sheep-herders out of muddy fields
and filth.

01:44:49.720 --> 01:44:51.313
They moved a few trees.

01:44:51.480 --> 01:44:54.757
And people protested
about the loss of the countryside.

01:44:55.600 --> 01:44:58.399
And if one man hadn't seen ahead
to what we'd need,

01:44:58.600 --> 01:45:01.479
this city would be unlivable,
would it not?

01:45:02.280 --> 01:45:03.280
Yes, it would.

01:45:04.960 --> 01:45:07.316
Most people don't even know
Fred Olmsted's name,

01:45:07.960 --> 01:45:09.633
yet they should thank him every day.

01:45:11.560 --> 01:45:12.676
I do.

01:45:19.840 --> 01:45:22.514
The important thing in this life
is to get things done.

01:45:22.960 --> 01:45:25.919
Those who can, build.
Those who can't, criticize.

01:45:26.080 --> 01:45:28.595
And I will not obstruct
the great work of this world,

01:45:28.800 --> 01:45:31.838
while some chipmunks are screeching
about having to relocate their nuts.

01:45:32.000 --> 01:45:33.195
Screech a nut, munk-chip.

01:45:33.720 --> 01:45:35.712
Chip a munk's love nuts, man.

01:45:36.360 --> 01:45:37.360
Uh...

01:45:38.640 --> 01:45:40.120
I can't control it, I'm sorry.

01:45:40.280 --> 01:45:41.280
It's all right.

01:45:43.160 --> 01:45:46.551
Talent and brains are rewarded
in this building, Lionel.

01:45:46.720 --> 01:45:49.110
If you're with us,
I'll see to it personally

01:45:49.320 --> 01:45:52.392
that your gifts are appreciated.

01:45:54.880 --> 01:45:56.519
But that's the offer today.

01:45:58.880 --> 01:46:00.997
You let me know where you stand
by tonight.

01:46:13.440 --> 01:46:15.079
It's funny. We read it wrong.

01:46:15.240 --> 01:46:16.240
How's that?

01:46:16.400 --> 01:46:18.471
We didn't make you for the ace
in Minna's deck.

01:46:18.680 --> 01:46:19.796
Ace-hole!

01:46:19.960 --> 01:46:21.360
Ace-hole!

01:46:28.880 --> 01:46:30.030
- You good?
- No.

01:46:30.200 --> 01:46:32.556
Loosey, goosey, thread-head fuck!

01:46:32.720 --> 01:46:34.598
Jesus, Lionel. Calm down.

01:46:34.760 --> 01:46:36.274
It's a missing piece, Danny.

01:46:36.440 --> 01:46:38.040
It's a missing piece and I can't see it.

01:46:38.120 --> 01:46:40.396
It's makin' my fuckin' brain hurt.

01:46:54.440 --> 01:46:55.510
Where's the rest?

01:46:55.720 --> 01:46:56.896
- Where's the rest of these?
- They're in the desk,

01:46:56.920 --> 01:46:58.216
but those are the only ones
with her in 'em.

01:46:58.240 --> 01:46:59.440
No, get 'em, get 'em, get 'em.

01:46:59.600 --> 01:47:01.557
These are all from before she arrived.

01:47:01.720 --> 01:47:02.720
There was ones of Billy.

01:47:02.880 --> 01:47:04.314
- Yeah, look...
- Shutterbug shit!

01:47:04.640 --> 01:47:06.552
God. Jesus, Lionel.

01:47:06.720 --> 01:47:08.136
That's her father,
comin' out of the door.

01:47:08.160 --> 01:47:09.640
We saw all these.

01:47:09.800 --> 01:47:11.632
That's some bum hustlin' for money.

01:47:11.800 --> 01:47:14.713
He yelled at him for a second,
but she's not in these.

01:47:15.640 --> 01:47:17.233
That son of a bitch!

01:47:17.840 --> 01:47:18.876
Where's the car keys?

01:47:19.040 --> 01:47:20.474
Coney and Tony got 'em both...

01:47:20.640 --> 01:47:21.676
Wait, where...

01:47:22.800 --> 01:47:24.632
What'd I miss?

01:47:26.520 --> 01:47:28.720
- Where are we going?
- I need you to look at something.

01:47:30.960 --> 01:47:32.235
Who's that with your father?

01:47:32.680 --> 01:47:34.016
- Where did you get...
- Answer the question!

01:47:34.040 --> 01:47:35.315
Do you know who that is?

01:47:35.520 --> 01:47:36.520
Paul.

01:47:37.120 --> 01:47:37.951
Paul Morris.

01:47:38.040 --> 01:47:39.760
Paul, your uncle Paul,
who got you this job.

01:47:40.320 --> 01:47:41.959
Don't shine me.
I already know who he is.

01:47:42.120 --> 01:47:42.951
My father...

01:47:43.120 --> 01:47:45.016
Yeah, your father and your uncle Paul,
and my friend Frank

01:47:45.040 --> 01:47:46.240
put all this together somehow.

01:47:46.400 --> 01:47:47.440
- No...
- Yes, God damn it!

01:47:47.520 --> 01:47:49.056
- Just tell me what the hell is goin' on.
- No!

01:47:49.080 --> 01:47:50.296
Are you involved in this or not?

01:47:50.320 --> 01:47:52.073
No, that's not my father
with my uncle Paul.

01:47:52.240 --> 01:47:54.436
It's my uncle Billy
with my father, Paul.

01:47:55.320 --> 01:47:56.436
Pull it farther!

01:47:56.960 --> 01:47:58.280
What did you say?

01:47:58.960 --> 01:48:01.191
Remember that picture of my mother?

01:48:01.360 --> 01:48:04.080
Now look at Billy.
Now look at me.

01:48:04.600 --> 01:48:05.795
You see?

01:48:07.560 --> 01:48:10.439
The rest of the world might look past me
without seeing, but I don't.

01:48:10.600 --> 01:48:12.159
Wait, they told you this?

01:48:12.320 --> 01:48:14.880
They never said so, but it doesn't
take much to put it together.

01:48:15.040 --> 01:48:16.840
Why else would he take
such an interest in me?

01:48:16.960 --> 01:48:18.600
Take care of me
when Billy was in the war?

01:48:18.760 --> 01:48:20.433
Pay for law school
when he's got nothin'?

01:48:20.600 --> 01:48:22.956
Whoever he is, he's using you now.

01:48:23.120 --> 01:48:25.237
He's using you to get back
at his own brother.

01:48:25.400 --> 01:48:26.834
I don't think he's got family.

01:48:27.000 --> 01:48:29.959
Yeah, look, his name's not Morris, okay?
It's Randolph.

01:48:30.440 --> 01:48:32.432
Moses Randolph is his brother.

01:48:32.600 --> 01:48:34.159
And he's using you to blackmail him.

01:48:34.360 --> 01:48:36.955
- That's not...
- It is. It is, I'm sorry.

01:48:37.120 --> 01:48:39.680
Just, just wait here, all right?

01:48:39.840 --> 01:48:41.433
Wait here until I get back.

01:48:43.440 --> 01:48:45.079
That's not possible!

01:48:50.120 --> 01:48:51.240
You know what that tells me?

01:48:51.360 --> 01:48:54.096
That tells me you and Billy set this up
with Minna to blackmail your brother.

01:48:54.120 --> 01:48:55.120
Where'd you get this?

01:48:55.280 --> 01:48:56.856
It's you who figured out
the scam they're running.

01:48:56.880 --> 01:48:59.156
It's you who found whatever it is
they're so scared of,

01:48:59.320 --> 01:49:00.896
but you made it look like it came
from Laura and the committee...

01:49:00.920 --> 01:49:02.760
- No.
- So you could hide behind her and Frank.

01:49:02.800 --> 01:49:03.976
- That's not true.
- But people are getting killed.

01:49:04.000 --> 01:49:04.877
You got it wrong.

01:49:04.960 --> 01:49:05.871
You got your own daughter's
life at risk...

01:49:05.960 --> 01:49:07.076
You don't...

01:49:07.160 --> 01:49:09.800
You don't know
what you're fucking talking about!

01:49:11.880 --> 01:49:15.794
I could have sunk him so many times.

01:49:15.880 --> 01:49:19.715
- He sunk me!
- Sing a song of sunk men!

01:49:19.800 --> 01:49:21.200
Hide behind her?

01:49:22.720 --> 01:49:23.880
I gave up everything for her.

01:49:24.040 --> 01:49:27.272
Everything I could have accomplished
my whole goddamn life.

01:49:27.360 --> 01:49:28.960
That's what happened
between you and him?

01:49:29.120 --> 01:49:32.079
You were with her mother,
and he hates colored people so much...

01:49:32.240 --> 01:49:34.914
I will not discuss such things with you!

01:49:36.600 --> 01:49:39.274
I knew you weren't a reporter.

01:49:40.120 --> 01:49:41.236
Load of shit.

01:49:41.400 --> 01:49:42.436
You're Minna's guy.

01:49:42.600 --> 01:49:44.114
Fuckin' right. He was my friend.

01:49:44.280 --> 01:49:46.636
I'm sorry, but it's not me.

01:49:47.680 --> 01:49:48.830
Frank put it all together.

01:49:49.000 --> 01:49:51.469
He and Billy thought
they could get something out of it.

01:49:51.640 --> 01:49:54.280
Foolish greed.
I tried to stop them.

01:49:54.480 --> 01:49:58.315
Told them that it would
put her at risk, all of them.

01:49:58.480 --> 01:50:01.837
Now look, Frank gets killed,
Billy panics and calls me for help,

01:50:02.000 --> 01:50:03.229
that's your picture.

01:50:03.400 --> 01:50:06.677
You're into something
that you don't understand.

01:50:06.840 --> 01:50:08.957
If you just stand up to him,

01:50:09.160 --> 01:50:11.800
on principle, like I did,

01:50:12.840 --> 01:50:15.036
he will ruin you for spite,

01:50:15.920 --> 01:50:17.354
but if you threaten his work,

01:50:17.840 --> 01:50:19.194
he will destroy you.

01:50:19.360 --> 01:50:20.360
Destroy.

01:50:22.160 --> 01:50:23.594
Find Minna's file.

01:50:33.920 --> 01:50:37.072
Frank. Frankly Frankady Franko.

01:50:39.520 --> 01:50:41.432
What's it all about, Frank?

01:50:47.800 --> 01:50:48.800
You remember what I said.

01:50:58.080 --> 01:50:59.560
I gotta keep this under my hat, boys.

01:51:02.080 --> 01:51:03.400
Get my hat, you fucking...

01:51:03.560 --> 01:51:04.560
Kept her under my hat...

01:51:04.640 --> 01:51:05.640
If!

01:51:17.760 --> 01:51:19.513
Frank Frankly Frankady Franko.

01:51:20.160 --> 01:51:21.833
Frank Frankly Frankady...

01:51:30.760 --> 01:51:32.558
Take me to Penn Station.

01:52:41.560 --> 01:52:43.392
- Hey, look out!
- No, no, no!

01:53:04.920 --> 01:53:05.920
If!

01:54:15.840 --> 01:54:16.910
You found it?

01:54:18.920 --> 01:54:19.920
Yeah.

01:54:22.320 --> 01:54:24.710
There's only one way
I can make sense of that, though.

01:54:26.120 --> 01:54:28.430
He didn't sign that birth certificate,
you did.

01:54:31.800 --> 01:54:32.800
Yes.

01:54:35.200 --> 01:54:36.316
I signed it.

01:54:38.240 --> 01:54:40.357
Billy brought her to our family home.

01:54:41.400 --> 01:54:44.916
Our servants tried to send them away,
but Billy started yelling.

01:54:45.080 --> 01:54:47.640
We were having dinner with our mother,
for God's sake.

01:54:48.440 --> 01:54:50.113
I followed Mo to the door.

01:54:50.800 --> 01:54:51.800
He scorned them.

01:54:52.120 --> 01:54:54.112
Refused to acknowledge.

01:54:54.320 --> 01:54:56.630
But I saw the truth on her face,

01:54:56.800 --> 01:54:58.996
and his, the way he looked at her.

01:54:59.960 --> 01:55:02.395
- You confronted him about it?
- I begged him!

01:55:03.080 --> 01:55:05.879
I invoked every principle and value

01:55:06.080 --> 01:55:08.515
that we had been raised to champion.

01:55:09.320 --> 01:55:10.913
I was in anguish.

01:55:12.000 --> 01:55:13.434
You can't understand.

01:55:13.600 --> 01:55:16.672
Our whole young life,
he was my hero.

01:55:16.880 --> 01:55:20.999
We wrote a creed.
We were going to fix the world together.

01:55:21.800 --> 01:55:24.759
But to serve people,
you have to love people.

01:55:24.920 --> 01:55:26.149
Mo tried,

01:55:27.360 --> 01:55:29.431
but he was so brilliant

01:55:29.600 --> 01:55:31.910
that he resented lesser minds

01:55:32.080 --> 01:55:34.072
and became hard.

01:55:34.280 --> 01:55:38.274
Obsessed with winning,
addicted to power,

01:55:38.720 --> 01:55:40.996
totally contemptuous of ideals.

01:55:41.400 --> 01:55:43.835
This phony "man of the people."

01:55:45.040 --> 01:55:49.319
When someone isn't seen
for what they truly are,

01:55:49.480 --> 01:55:51.233
that's a very dangerous thing.

01:55:53.160 --> 01:55:54.594
Nobody else knows who she is?

01:55:54.800 --> 01:55:55.916
Not even Horowitz.

01:55:56.080 --> 01:55:58.120
- Why not tell her?
- 'Cause she would have used it.

01:55:58.280 --> 01:56:00.431
She would've used it to good effect,

01:56:01.720 --> 01:56:03.916
but that would have
destroyed Laura totally.

01:56:06.120 --> 01:56:10.512
Satisfaction won't unburden
a tortured heart.

01:56:11.880 --> 01:56:12.880
So...

01:56:14.200 --> 01:56:15.350
I can hold it.

01:56:16.720 --> 01:56:17.720
So can you.

01:56:19.280 --> 01:56:20.280
Please.

01:56:21.800 --> 01:56:22.800
Yeah.

01:56:31.200 --> 01:56:33.396
It's all in a locker in Penn Station.

01:56:35.040 --> 01:56:37.077
If anything happens to me,

01:56:37.240 --> 01:56:38.816
you send that to Jacob Gleason
at the <i>Post.</i>

01:56:38.840 --> 01:56:40.536
- The <i>Post?</i>
- He'll know what to do with it.

01:56:40.560 --> 01:56:41.710
The <i>Post</i> is a rag.

01:56:41.880 --> 01:56:44.440
Yeah, but the <i>Times</i>
is in your brother's pocket, too.

01:56:46.600 --> 01:56:48.637
I gotta get her out of town
before that vote.

01:57:00.000 --> 01:57:01.354
What are you doin' here, Tony?

01:57:01.440 --> 01:57:03.238
Watchin' your back.

01:57:04.520 --> 01:57:05.590
Come on.

01:57:05.760 --> 01:57:07.479
What do you say we go get a drink?

01:57:08.720 --> 01:57:10.074
If! Sorry.

01:57:10.240 --> 01:57:11.390
How's the eye?

01:57:11.560 --> 01:57:13.040
Gonna hurt for a while.

01:57:13.200 --> 01:57:14.839
How long you been following me?

01:57:15.000 --> 01:57:16.000
I wasn't.

01:57:16.080 --> 01:57:17.856
They put me on his building,
and I seen you come up.

01:57:17.880 --> 01:57:18.880
"They"?

01:57:19.080 --> 01:57:20.896
Yeah, let's not bullshit each other,
Lionel, okay?

01:57:20.920 --> 01:57:22.149
You been talkin' to 'em, too.

01:57:22.320 --> 01:57:23.549
Yeah, not workin' for 'em.

01:57:24.200 --> 01:57:25.316
I was gonna tell ya.

01:57:25.480 --> 01:57:26.596
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

01:57:26.920 --> 01:57:27.920
Okay.

01:57:28.960 --> 01:57:31.031
Was that you outside the club
that night?

01:57:32.040 --> 01:57:33.793
I thought I saw someone in the alley

01:57:34.240 --> 01:57:36.616
when the owner of that place
was roughin' me up, makin' threats.

01:57:36.640 --> 01:57:39.120
- Did you tell 'em about that?
- They just pay me to keep tabs.

01:57:39.680 --> 01:57:41.016
So, that's what I did.
I keep tabs.

01:57:41.040 --> 01:57:42.633
- What we do, we keep tabs.
- If! If!

01:57:42.800 --> 01:57:45.315
T, he was bluffing.

01:57:46.120 --> 01:57:47.736
He didn't even have it,
and they killed him for it.

01:57:47.760 --> 01:57:50.878
But why try to figure it out, right?
You're just movin' up.

01:57:51.080 --> 01:57:52.958
- All right.
- Sell it and tell it, letter man!

01:57:53.120 --> 01:57:54.216
- Take it easy.
- Tell it and sell it!

01:57:54.240 --> 01:57:55.320
Take it easy. Have a drink.

01:57:55.400 --> 01:57:57.357
Bring me a whiskey up.
What are you drinkin'?

01:57:57.520 --> 01:57:58.795
- I'll have a tea.
- A tea?

01:57:58.960 --> 01:58:00.838
Very hot water
with the teabag on the side.

01:58:01.000 --> 01:58:03.356
And milk and sugar on the side.
Very hot, okay?

01:58:03.520 --> 01:58:05.239
Hot tits on my milky tea face!

01:58:05.400 --> 01:58:07.176
- Don't pay him no mind, doll.
- Sugar tits on my milk face!

01:58:07.200 --> 01:58:08.400
Something wrong with his head.

01:58:08.800 --> 01:58:09.800
Mm-hmm.

01:58:10.600 --> 01:58:11.856
There's nothin' wrong with my head.

01:58:11.880 --> 01:58:13.314
Well, you could have fooled me.

01:58:15.200 --> 01:58:16.759
How long you been fucking Julia?

01:58:18.480 --> 01:58:20.551
After all the things he did for you,

01:58:22.120 --> 01:58:23.873
you couldn't go find
someone else to bang?

01:58:24.040 --> 01:58:27.192
Everybody gotta find their own way
in this world, Lionel.

01:58:28.360 --> 01:58:32.195
What, you think I was just gonna
stay in Frank's shadow all my life?

01:58:33.120 --> 01:58:35.555
Okay for you, not for me.

01:58:44.840 --> 01:58:45.840
Careful.

01:58:51.000 --> 01:58:52.616
Come on, can we just have
a real drink here?

01:58:52.640 --> 01:58:53.720
I don't wanna have a drink.

01:58:53.800 --> 01:58:55.880
Well, what's the big fuckin' deal,
Lionel? He's gone.

01:58:55.960 --> 01:58:58.270
Okay? There's nothin'
we can do about it.

01:58:58.720 --> 01:59:02.111
We help 'em get what they want,
and we get on a new ride.

01:59:02.320 --> 01:59:04.152
An easier ride, maybe?

01:59:05.760 --> 01:59:07.240
What, after all we've been through,

01:59:07.400 --> 01:59:10.438
after all we had to do to
fuckin' survive just growin' up?

01:59:10.600 --> 01:59:12.831
Come on. We're due an easy gig.

01:59:13.040 --> 01:59:14.440
You, especially.

01:59:14.600 --> 01:59:17.160
Come on, I know you got a real talent.

01:59:17.320 --> 01:59:19.039
I'll make sure there's a place for you.

01:59:19.200 --> 01:59:21.112
Be real partners.

01:59:25.160 --> 01:59:27.356
Let's talk about it
after tomorrow, all right?

01:59:27.520 --> 01:59:28.696
I got somethin' I gotta take care of.

01:59:28.720 --> 01:59:30.320
Don't go up to Harlem tonight,
Freakshow.

01:59:30.760 --> 01:59:31.955
Stay out of it.

01:59:32.400 --> 01:59:34.119
- What?
- Just don't do it.

01:59:35.080 --> 01:59:37.720
See, I'm not so far out of the loop
as you think.

01:59:38.760 --> 01:59:40.274
We're closin' it up tonight.

01:59:40.480 --> 01:59:42.392
No, no. Okay, listen to me.

01:59:42.480 --> 01:59:43.357
Just don't get involved.

01:59:43.440 --> 01:59:44.351
I found what they're lookin' for,
all right?

01:59:44.440 --> 01:59:45.616
- I got it!
- It's the last loose end.

01:59:45.640 --> 01:59:47.656
No, no, no, you gotta call 'em,
you gotta call 'em right now,

01:59:47.680 --> 01:59:48.816
- and tell 'em to call it off.
- It's already out of my hands.

01:59:48.840 --> 01:59:49.840
Tony, I've got it.

01:59:49.960 --> 01:59:51.519
Come on, let's just have a drink.

01:59:51.600 --> 01:59:52.716
Aah! Fuck!

02:00:05.560 --> 02:00:06.880
You son of a bitch!

02:00:07.280 --> 02:00:09.033
I tried to help you.

02:00:15.720 --> 02:00:16.720
Aah!

02:00:31.960 --> 02:00:33.600
- Come on!
<i>- Committee on Housing.</i>

02:00:33.640 --> 02:00:34.896
Can I speak to Laura Rose, please?

02:00:34.920 --> 02:00:36.136
<i>I'm sorry, she's gone for the day.</i>

02:00:36.160 --> 02:00:37.416
- What?
<i>- She went home. She wasn't feeling well.</i>

02:00:37.440 --> 02:00:39.360
- Where'd she go? When?
<i>- I'm sorry, who is this?</i>

02:00:39.520 --> 02:00:41.989
- When?
<i>- About 15 minutes ago.</i>

02:01:03.080 --> 02:01:05.072
Take me to Harlem! Step on it!
I got money!

02:01:05.840 --> 02:01:06.956
149th and St. Nicholas!

02:01:19.360 --> 02:01:21.238
If! Oh, shit.

02:01:46.240 --> 02:01:48.072
No, no, come on, run it, run it!
I got money!

02:01:48.240 --> 02:01:49.469
If! If! If!

02:01:51.920 --> 02:01:52.797
<i>Train's going out of service.</i>

02:01:52.880 --> 02:01:54.837
<i>It will not proceed beyond this station.</i>

02:01:58.520 --> 02:02:00.113
Now, you... Go across 141st.

02:02:03.560 --> 02:02:05.438
Yeah, up St. Nic's, up St. Nic's.

02:02:12.280 --> 02:02:14.033
Stop, stop, stop! Stop right here!

02:02:15.200 --> 02:02:16.270
Laura!

02:02:24.520 --> 02:02:26.034
Son of a bitch.

02:02:48.720 --> 02:02:49.720
Laura.

02:02:49.960 --> 02:02:50.996
What are you doing...

02:03:04.760 --> 02:03:05.796
Come on.

02:03:06.800 --> 02:03:07.800
Come on.

02:03:24.840 --> 02:03:26.160
Aah!

02:03:33.640 --> 02:03:35.757
No, no, not down there.
They're down there.

02:03:43.920 --> 02:03:45.070
Go up, go up.

02:03:45.240 --> 02:03:46.469
They're goin' up!

02:04:02.640 --> 02:04:04.154
No! No!

02:04:12.360 --> 02:04:14.352
Aah! Aah!

02:04:20.040 --> 02:04:21.040
Go, go, go, go, go!

02:04:37.320 --> 02:04:38.879
Come here. You all right?

02:04:39.040 --> 02:04:40.474
- We gotta go.
- Okay.

02:04:54.400 --> 02:04:55.400
If!

02:04:58.800 --> 02:05:00.917
She doesn't know!
She doesn't know.

02:05:01.880 --> 02:05:04.315
Makes no difference
one way or the other.

02:05:04.480 --> 02:05:06.400
But I found what he's looking for.
Just tell him.

02:05:06.680 --> 02:05:07.750
Tell him I got it.

02:05:07.920 --> 02:05:09.912
No, no, no, no. That offer expired.

02:05:11.240 --> 02:05:13.550
And they told me you were smart.

02:05:15.960 --> 02:05:17.280
Motherfucker.

02:05:19.480 --> 02:05:21.358
Smoked my best horn.

02:05:27.800 --> 02:05:29.280
No, I want to see him alone.

02:05:29.680 --> 02:05:31.000
Yes, right now.

02:05:32.320 --> 02:05:34.256
Let me tell you something.
You try anything funny,

02:05:34.280 --> 02:05:36.616
and tomorrow's gonna be the worst day
that you've had in a long time,

02:05:36.640 --> 02:05:37.676
you understand?

02:05:48.080 --> 02:05:49.309
Do you know where that is?

02:05:50.960 --> 02:05:52.189
I heard of it.

02:05:52.360 --> 02:05:54.431
Think you can get her out there tonight?

02:05:56.480 --> 02:05:59.075
I always did enjoy a night drive.

02:06:05.960 --> 02:06:07.553
Go with them, okay?

02:06:08.360 --> 02:06:09.510
You'll be safe.

02:06:10.280 --> 02:06:11.680
I'll come in the morning.

02:06:13.520 --> 02:06:15.079
What don't I know?

02:06:16.680 --> 02:06:18.990
<i>It wasn't the story
she wanted to hear.</i>

02:06:19.160 --> 02:06:22.915
<i>No good was gonna come from tellin' it,
so I wanted to say, "It doesn't matter.</i>

02:06:23.080 --> 02:06:24.753
<i>It's got nothin' to do with you."</i>

02:06:25.000 --> 02:06:28.277
<i>But there's no upside in lyin' to
a woman who's smarter than you,</i>

02:06:28.440 --> 02:06:29.476
<i>so, I told her the truth.</i>

02:06:31.120 --> 02:06:34.192
<i>Frank told me once, if you're up against
someone bigger than you,</i>

02:06:34.360 --> 02:06:36.591
<i>someone you can't beat toe to toe,</i>

02:06:36.760 --> 02:06:38.399
<i>make 'em think you respect their size,</i>

02:06:38.560 --> 02:06:41.029
<i>and then cut a deal
that lets you walk out in one piece.</i>

02:06:41.520 --> 02:06:43.352
<i>Then figure out a way
to stick it to 'em later</i>

02:06:43.520 --> 02:06:45.591
<i>without leaving
your prints on the knife.</i>

02:06:47.120 --> 02:06:50.192
<i>Even walkin' in there,
I wasn't exactly sure how to play it.</i>

02:06:50.360 --> 02:06:53.592
<i>I was just hoping, in all that steam,
he wouldn't see me sweat.</i>

02:06:59.960 --> 02:07:00.996
If!

02:07:09.000 --> 02:07:10.912
Who's the fucking boss now, Bailey?

02:07:11.080 --> 02:07:12.560
Who's the boss?

02:07:13.520 --> 02:07:14.670
So, what is it with you?

02:07:15.120 --> 02:07:16.320
I told you I can't control it.

02:07:16.520 --> 02:07:18.296
Didn't your goons
fuckin' fill you in already?

02:07:18.320 --> 02:07:19.936
I don't care about
your fuckin' affliction.

02:07:19.960 --> 02:07:22.320
What's your angle with this?
What do you want for that file?

02:07:22.840 --> 02:07:24.336
I wanna hear your side of what's in it.

02:07:24.360 --> 02:07:25.360
Why?

02:07:25.760 --> 02:07:28.070
Let's just say an unfinished puzzle
makes my head hurt.

02:07:28.280 --> 02:07:29.416
All right?
More than most people.

02:07:29.440 --> 02:07:31.280
I smooth it out
for your pain-in-the-ass brain,

02:07:31.440 --> 02:07:32.800
we're puttin' this to bed tonight?

02:07:33.040 --> 02:07:34.633
Yeah, it's your best shot.

02:07:44.240 --> 02:07:45.356
I was young.

02:07:46.200 --> 02:07:47.680
I was the "get things done" man

02:07:47.840 --> 02:07:50.150
for the greatest governor
in the history of this state.

02:07:50.320 --> 02:07:51.595
We had a party.

02:07:52.120 --> 02:07:53.873
It was the good times, before the Crash.

02:07:54.040 --> 02:07:56.760
The Tammany parties were like
nothing before or since.

02:07:56.920 --> 02:07:59.435
We had a whole fuckin' hotel.

02:08:01.720 --> 02:08:03.200
I saw her there, working.

02:08:04.480 --> 02:08:05.480
She was...

02:08:07.920 --> 02:08:11.152
I'd never felt lust like that before.

02:08:11.440 --> 02:08:13.096
Twenty-five years later,
I think about her,

02:08:13.120 --> 02:08:14.873
it still makes my blood move.

02:08:16.080 --> 02:08:18.515
I followed her into a service hallway.

02:08:19.200 --> 02:08:20.600
She knew I had.

02:08:20.760 --> 02:08:22.114
She looked back.

02:08:22.280 --> 02:08:24.636
She went into a supply room.
I went in.

02:08:25.480 --> 02:08:27.949
I took her against the spare towels.

02:08:29.280 --> 02:08:30.396
You raped her.

02:08:32.360 --> 02:08:33.874
I moved on her that first time,

02:08:33.960 --> 02:08:36.316
but I treated her well,
bought her things.

02:08:37.280 --> 02:08:41.115
Saw to it that the Party used that hotel
lots for a few years.

02:08:41.440 --> 02:08:44.956
She could have disappeared any time,
stopped working there, but she didn't.

02:08:48.960 --> 02:08:50.872
She was shy,
but she knew how things worked,

02:08:50.960 --> 02:08:51.837
and she was always grateful.

02:08:51.920 --> 02:08:53.036
Rape?

02:08:53.840 --> 02:08:56.196
Do you have the first inkling

02:08:56.360 --> 02:08:58.033
how power works?

02:08:58.520 --> 02:09:00.910
Power is feeling, knowing

02:09:01.120 --> 02:09:04.909
that you can do whatever you want,
and not one fuckin' person can stop you.

02:09:05.480 --> 02:09:08.075
And if someone else has a dumb idea
that you don't like,

02:09:08.240 --> 02:09:11.995
well, that's the end of that idea,
or the end of that person, if you want.

02:09:12.840 --> 02:09:15.958
And if I wanna build highways
while the rest of the country is broke,

02:09:16.120 --> 02:09:18.635
I'll punch through
any damn neighborhood I want.

02:09:19.040 --> 02:09:22.920
If some Negro slum is where I'm going
to put my federal project,

02:09:23.080 --> 02:09:24.400
or the off ramp of my bridge,

02:09:24.560 --> 02:09:26.760
well, the goodie-goods
can shriek and moan all day long.

02:09:26.920 --> 02:09:30.550
And if some chump wants to blackjack me,
threatening to move our baseball team,

02:09:30.720 --> 02:09:33.997
well, buddy, the Dodgers can take it
on the arches to the fucking coast.

02:09:34.200 --> 02:09:35.270
I'll find another team

02:09:35.360 --> 02:09:38.034
that will play ball with me
in my stadium.

02:09:39.240 --> 02:09:42.199
And if I want to fuck some colored girl
in a hotel room now and then,

02:09:42.360 --> 02:09:44.352
because I'm feeling
like a wrecking ball,

02:09:44.520 --> 02:09:46.352
then, pal, I'm gonna do it.

02:09:48.360 --> 02:09:50.113
And if you think I'm gonna let some

02:09:50.560 --> 02:09:52.836
chip who never should have been born

02:09:53.160 --> 02:09:56.119
or your small-time boss,
or my brother with his ideals

02:09:56.200 --> 02:10:01.195
and his forgeries in my name slow down
the work I'm getting done in this city,

02:10:01.360 --> 02:10:03.955
then you've got a lot to learn
about how power works.

02:10:04.640 --> 02:10:07.872
Because those people are invisible.
They don't exist.

02:10:09.840 --> 02:10:12.753
See if you feel that way tomorrow
after your big vote.

02:10:18.560 --> 02:10:19.596
She know?

02:10:25.000 --> 02:10:26.116
Interesting.

02:10:26.280 --> 02:10:27.634
So, it's you and Paul?

02:10:28.520 --> 02:10:29.636
Well, I know what he wants.

02:10:29.840 --> 02:10:31.240
If he had any balls,

02:10:31.320 --> 02:10:32.896
he would have used it before
to box me in and take it from me

02:10:32.920 --> 02:10:34.673
which I would have respected, actually,

02:10:34.840 --> 02:10:36.991
but he thinks the way
that you do things matter,

02:10:37.160 --> 02:10:38.958
which is why he'll never be anybody.

02:10:41.600 --> 02:10:43.159
You an idealist, too?

02:10:43.920 --> 02:10:47.436
You wanna trade that file
to save the block you grew up on?

02:10:48.200 --> 02:10:51.318
Make me move my lines for some committee
of childless women,

02:10:51.480 --> 02:10:53.836
howling about their Negro adoptees?

02:10:54.200 --> 02:10:56.954
Or are you just another
blackmailing gumshoe

02:10:57.040 --> 02:10:58.599
who wants to transact with me?

02:10:59.960 --> 02:11:00.960
Come on, name it!

02:11:01.160 --> 02:11:02.799
Name it, claim it, shame it!

02:11:06.960 --> 02:11:08.553
That gumshoe was my friend,

02:11:09.360 --> 02:11:11.920
and the girl's the only reason
you're still breathin'.

02:11:13.840 --> 02:11:15.200
Do whatever you want to this city,

02:11:15.760 --> 02:11:17.433
go build your pyramids on the Nile,

02:11:17.640 --> 02:11:18.835
just leave her alone.

02:11:19.800 --> 02:11:22.031
Anything happens to her,
I mail it.

02:11:22.920 --> 02:11:24.070
That's it.

02:11:24.240 --> 02:11:25.799
That's all of it.

02:11:31.560 --> 02:11:32.880
Let me make something clear.

02:11:33.040 --> 02:11:35.555
If you or my brother messes
with what I intend to do,

02:11:35.720 --> 02:11:38.360
I'll make her life worse
than I've already made his.

02:11:39.120 --> 02:11:40.873
You tell him I said that.

02:11:46.840 --> 02:11:48.638
Well, I guess we got a deal, then.

02:11:50.200 --> 02:11:51.873
So, I'll give you one for free.

02:11:53.640 --> 02:11:56.633
Your man, Lieberman,
is gonna cause you some problems.

02:11:58.480 --> 02:11:59.630
How so?

02:12:00.160 --> 02:12:03.756
He owns a piece of half the companies
doin' contracts with slum clearance.

02:12:03.920 --> 02:12:05.991
I'm guessin' he hasn't
told you about that.

02:12:06.680 --> 02:12:08.273
So, when you handle him,

02:12:08.480 --> 02:12:11.279
tell him I told you,
and that's for Frank.

02:12:11.720 --> 02:12:13.120
Son of a bitch.

02:12:19.000 --> 02:12:21.595
You come off weird, but you're smart.

02:12:22.400 --> 02:12:24.153
You should have taken my offer.

02:12:25.400 --> 02:12:28.279
Could have made them all
get on their knees and apologize.

02:12:29.800 --> 02:12:33.111
But if she's anything like her mother,
I understand the pull.

02:12:35.440 --> 02:12:36.590
Right.

02:12:37.760 --> 02:12:38.955
One more thing.

02:12:40.720 --> 02:12:43.872
Tell my brother I read his masterwork.
It's as brilliant as everyone says.

02:12:44.800 --> 02:12:45.896
Nobody could have done it better,

02:12:45.920 --> 02:12:47.136
and it's good for everyone,
including me.

02:12:47.160 --> 02:12:49.356
There's not a reason in the world
to deny it.

02:12:50.600 --> 02:12:52.560
Tell him I'll give him my thoughts
in the morning.

02:12:55.640 --> 02:12:56.640
If!

02:13:04.560 --> 02:13:06.313
Son of a bitch!

02:13:16.560 --> 02:13:22.636
<i>The lines are drawn</i>

02:13:23.080 --> 02:13:29.111
<i>For daily battles</i>

02:13:30.000 --> 02:13:35.439
<i>The trumpet sound</i>

02:13:36.480 --> 02:13:41.953
<i>For daily troubles</i>

02:13:42.520 --> 02:13:48.312
<i>Lock your dreams away</i>

02:13:49.200 --> 02:13:54.195
<i>And waking up</i>

02:13:55.960 --> 02:14:01.797
<i>Enough about</i>

02:14:02.120 --> 02:14:07.639
<i>Your broken heart</i>

02:14:11.640 --> 02:14:14.030
<i>Growin' up, I always thought
Frank was a hero.</i>

02:14:14.520 --> 02:14:16.398
<i>But he was no crusader in the end.</i>

02:14:17.080 --> 02:14:20.152
<i>He was just a gumshoe tryin'
to make a buck like everyone else.</i>

02:14:20.720 --> 02:14:22.757
<i>But he didn't have to go to that war.</i>

02:14:22.920 --> 02:14:25.230
<i>He was old enough to have skipped it,
and he went, anyway,</i>

02:14:25.400 --> 02:14:27.880
<i>'cause he actually thought this country
was worth fighting for.</i>

02:14:29.160 --> 02:14:31.117
<i>I never had anything
I cared about enough</i>

02:14:31.200 --> 02:14:33.669
<i>to look past my own problems,
but Laura did.</i>

02:14:34.360 --> 02:14:35.794
<i>There was a story she wanted told,</i>

02:14:36.000 --> 02:14:39.437
<i>and I figured it was time
to get off my ass and pick a side.</i>

02:14:39.960 --> 02:14:41.394
Hey, Gleason, for you.

02:14:42.520 --> 02:14:44.796
<i>Hey, pal, I'm new to this beat.
What's the story here?</i>

02:14:44.880 --> 02:14:45.791
<i>Stories of injustice
and despair,</i>

02:14:45.880 --> 02:14:48.236
<i>and back to business as usual.</i>

02:14:48.320 --> 02:14:49.549
<i>The American way.</i>

02:15:36.760 --> 02:15:38.672
Are you crazy?
It's freezin' out.

02:15:51.440 --> 02:15:52.920
What is this place?

02:15:55.960 --> 02:15:57.280
It was Frank's.

02:16:01.320 --> 02:16:03.073
And looks like it's mine now.

02:16:15.120 --> 02:16:17.555
Still lookin' out for you, after all.

02:16:22.360 --> 02:16:24.431
Funny how things turn out.

02:16:26.840 --> 02:16:27.840
Yeah.

02:16:30.760 --> 02:16:31.989
"Brooklyn's big,

02:16:34.080 --> 02:16:36.390
"Brooklyn's big, but there's things
even bigger."

02:16:38.240 --> 02:16:39.435
What's that?

02:16:41.640 --> 02:16:43.871
I think it's something Frank said to me,
but I...

02:16:44.440 --> 02:16:46.033
I can't remember when.

02:16:53.400 --> 02:16:55.631
Maybe this is what he meant.

02:16:57.160 --> 02:16:58.160
If!

02:16:59.160 --> 02:17:00.160
If!
