01:00Oh, my aching back.
01:02How was the trip?
01:03I never saw so many terrible drivers.
01:05It was all right.
01:06I took 66 most of the way.
01:08What's the name of this place?
01:10This is Tower Grove Park.
01:11We'll meet here in the morning.
01:12Get us a room?
01:14There's a place near me that looks all right.
01:16You better see for yourself here.
01:18Okay.
01:20Yo, Fowler.
01:22I'm John Egan.
01:26This is Willie.
01:27Hi.
01:29You've driven before for Gino?
01:33Not exactly.
01:35He's all right, John.
01:36When were you inside?
01:37What?
01:38Time.
01:39How much time have you done?
01:41Look, I said he was all right.
01:43Well, I've never been to prison, sir.
01:45What are you, some kind of college boy?
01:47No.
01:48What's the letter?
01:49It's just a letter.
01:51What is this, anyway?
01:52You've been on a job before?
01:54No, sir.
01:56Nice going.
01:57Two days' notice.
01:58What do you want?
01:59I don't like going out with somebody I don't know.
02:01I know him.
02:02I know him since he was a kid.
02:04He can drive okay, and he's got the nerve.
02:06You know what this job means to me.
02:08He's all right.
02:09Let's get to what we're here for.
02:12This looks like a good one.
02:13Never been touched.
02:14No bank card.
02:15Good location.
02:18Five streets.
02:19Come right in here at this corner.
02:21Two of them lead directly to the highway.
02:23We won't be on any one of them after six blocks,
02:25but they'll have to watch it.
02:26All those streets, they'll be lucky if they get our direction.
02:29Move over, will ya?
02:33Sorry.
02:35Don't mean nothing.

02:39What about the money?
02:40Tringer says Friday.
02:42They do a big payroll business and have to have cash.
02:45How much do you think, John?
02:46$100,000 or more.
02:47That tell?
02:48That's right.
02:49We don't fool with the vaults.
02:51What about the split?
02:52Usual.
02:5310% to the finger.
02:54The rest we cut down the middle.
02:56$20,000.
02:57My lawyer's going to love me.
02:59What about fuzz?
03:00It's a good location.
03:01They haven't had a bank job in 20 years.
03:03Lots of fat cops and lots of old men.
03:05Can you bankroll it?
03:07I'll take care of Willie and me, but you two
03:09will have to get your own eating money.
03:11When do we go?
03:13I'm not sure.
03:15Maybe a week from Friday.
03:17Maybe longer.
03:18There's a lot to do.
03:19It's cutting it close for me.
03:21When's your trial?
03:22Three weeks.
03:23My lawyer wants it on the line before he does anything.
03:25You'll have plenty of time.

03:29Here's the schedule.
03:38We case it two hours every morning
03:39for the next five days.
03:41You each have four 15-minute shifts.
03:43I don't mind if you overlap a little,
03:45but I don't want you hanging around too much.
03:47Now you know what to look for.
03:49Scout cars, beat men, when the money truck's in,
03:52traffic, anything unusual.
03:54You get those plates?
03:55I didn't have time.
03:57Well, that's all right.
03:59We'll let George try it.
04:01That's a good idea.
04:02All right with you, Georgie boy?
04:04Sure it is.
04:05Is that all?
04:06One thing more.
04:07No women.
04:08If you have the brains you were born with,
04:10you ought to know it.
04:11What about Willie?
04:12You think you can stand it?
04:13I mean it, Gino.
04:14This is my last one.
04:16I don't want it gummed up.
04:17Don't worry.
04:18I'll read a book or something.
04:19I'll be back.
04:20I'll be back.
04:21I don't want it gummed up.
