00:00And now, what do you think?
00:04Oh, I'm sorry.
00:08This is the end of the game.
00:12You want to be kidding me?
00:16I'm not sure.
00:20I'm not sure.
00:24But how do you think?
00:28It was great to have you tonight, Mr. Levine.
00:33We had a wonderful time.
00:36Good night, sir.
00:37Get home safe.
00:39Good night, ma'am.
00:40You take care, sir.
00:41And don't you forget about that thing.
00:44Yeah, absolutely.
00:45Good night, now.
00:45Good night, Levine.
00:46Good night.
00:47Three bags for each, right?
00:48Don't worry about it.
00:51Oh, you're way too drunk to even open the car door.
00:58Alexander Levine?
01:00Who are you?
01:01What do you want?
01:05No, I'm...
01:06What happened?
01:11Oh, good heavens.
01:12Look, they just killed Mr. Levine.
01:13The gunman fled that way.
01:15Go after him now.
01:16Hurry up.
01:17Oh, good heavens.
01:18Oh, they killed him right in front of my cafe.
01:21Oh, no.
01:22Oh, no.
01:28Hello, T-Taz.
01:33Oh, hello, sir.
01:33Who's been murdered?
01:35Alexander Levine, the owner of Iran Cinema, and a woman named Naira Shirazi.
01:39The two were shot dead by an unknown gunman as they were leaving the cafe after having dinner this evening.
01:46And I guess the assailant escaped?
01:48Yes, sir.
01:49One of the waiters at the cafe chased him but got injured.
01:52He's in hospital.
01:54And where are the eyewitnesses?
01:56How long have you had this place, Mr. Suraj?
02:02It's been four years.
02:03I got it from a Russian man named Sergei Arganov.
02:05And since when did the murdered lady start to work for you?
02:08Since last year.
02:10Did you see the gunman?
02:11No, I didn't.
02:15How about you? Did you?
02:18No, sir.
02:19When I heard the shooting, I ran outside to see.
02:22Then Mr. Suraj pointed to the gunman as he was fleeing.
02:25And our friend, his huck, chased him.
02:28Then we heard another gunshot, so I ran to see what had happened.
02:32And I saw Arzak lying on the ground a few blocks down.
02:35He had been shot too.
02:37So we brought him back to the cafe.
02:39Then took him to the hospital.
02:42And was he able to see the gunman's face?
02:44No. It was too dark for him to see.
02:48And the guy was wearing a mask, too.
02:51Oh.
02:52Oh.
02:52Oh.
02:53Oh.
02:53Oh.
02:56You finished, Lieutenant?
02:58Yes, sir.
02:58Did you find any clues?
03:00Anything, I tell you.
03:01No, we'll need to investigate some more.
03:03I guess.
03:04Ah.
03:05You want to go home?
03:06Oh, no.
03:06I'll go to the office.
03:08Isn't it too late?
03:09It is.
03:10But it's too late for home.
03:12I'll get some sleep in the office.
03:14It's almost morning.
03:16Plus, if I go home, my wife isn't going to open the door for me either.
03:20Okay, you can come to my place.
03:22That's kind of you, sir, but I'm okay.
03:24I'll go to the office.
03:25I'll go to the office.
03:55Uh, excuse me, sir.
04:10Here.
04:12Thanks a lot.
04:15But it's too little.
04:17So that's not enough for your dose, huh?
04:19No, sir.
04:19I want money.
04:21In exchange for the information which can be useful to you.
04:25I was outside the cafe last night.
04:27I saw the stupid Levine shot.
04:30Yes, but I didn't see you there.
04:32That's because I was hiding, sir.
04:35Why's that?
04:35Because Saruja hates me.
04:37He doesn't like me to go around there.
04:39He's even has his thugs beat me up a few times before.
04:42Because you're such trouble?
04:44No, I know a guy who was a guard at Sinema Iran.
04:47And I have evidence against Levine and the thugs he's done,
04:51and Saruja didn't want me to reveal all that bad stuff.
04:54And you know what else?
04:56They made all these lies about me,
04:58and I was sent to jail for five years and became a drug addict.
05:01In prison?
05:03That's right, sir.
05:05Drugs are there.
05:06As much as you want, too.
05:08When I left prison,
05:10I became this homeless, shaggy junkie.
05:13This awful excuse of a man that you're talking to right now.
05:20Looks like you know a lot about the murder,
05:22so let's go inside to my office now.
05:24No, no.
05:25I can't, sir.
05:26I'm not going to say a word.
05:29I'm not going to talk in there.
05:31I've had enough, sir.
05:33With officers during prison,
05:35it's too much to handle.
05:37So you want to tell me your story right here?
05:39No, man.
05:41An Ari Café tonight.
05:42You know the place?
05:45Mm-hmm.
05:46I do.
05:48I'll be waiting for you there.
05:50So make sure you come, okay?
05:52If my information is good,
05:54then you can pay me.
05:55And if it isn't good enough,
05:57we'll just go our own ways, officer.
06:00All right.
06:01I like that deal, sir.
06:04This is the first time for years
06:06that I'm shaking hands with someone.
06:08Goodbye, sir.
06:12Good morning, lieutenant.
06:34I'm sorry, sir.
06:35I was told you about...
06:36It's okay, man.
06:37Just get up.
06:37All right, sir.
06:38Yes, detective Alavi?
06:49Hello, sir.
06:51Yes, sir.
06:52I'll be right there.
06:56This is the initial report
06:57of the incident last night.
06:59Mm-hmm.
06:59But we still need time
07:01to investigate some more
07:02and get a few real clues.
07:03Listen, this Levine
07:06was an important
07:07and influential guy, right?
07:09So the motives
07:10and the identity
07:11of the attacker
07:11have to be
07:12clarified as soon as possible.
07:15Of course, sir.
07:16I'll do my best.
07:18Now, remember, Alavi,
07:19that Alexander Levine
07:20is also a Russian national.
07:23So in addition
07:24to my superiors,
07:25I also have to answer
07:27to the officials
07:27over at the Soviet embassy.
07:30Understood.
07:30Please, try to solve
07:32the case soon.
07:34And don't hesitate
07:34to ask me
07:35if you need any help
07:37with this.
07:54Okay, well,
07:55I found Mr. Rossi's address.
07:57At Nazare Street,
07:59near the Shams on Emera building.
08:02Sounds good.
08:04Next thing you have to do
08:04is go to the Association
08:06of Cinema Owners
08:06and talk to the members
08:07there, all right?
08:08Like whom?
08:09Mainly the Swedish guy
08:11named Arnold Jakobsen.
08:12Apparently,
08:12the two were old friends.
08:14Got it.
08:15What would you like to have?
08:17Oh, nothing, thanks.
08:18I just have a few questions
08:19about Ms. Shirazi.
08:20Sit down, please.
08:21All right, go ahead, sir.
08:22All right, first,
08:27I'd like to know
08:27what exactly
08:28the lady did
08:29in your cafe.
08:30She was just a cashier.
08:32There were recently rumors
08:33that Mr. Levine
08:34was actually going
08:36to marry her, too.
08:38And was that rumor true?
08:39I don't know.
08:40Mr. Shiraz,
08:41telephone.
08:43Hold on, sir.
08:44Hello there.
09:00Hello, sir.
09:00How are you doing?
09:01So, how long
09:02have you been working here?
09:04Well, ever since
09:04the cafe opened up.
09:06I used to work for
09:07Mr. Oganoff first.
09:09How much did you know
09:11about the cashier,
09:12Ms. Shirazi?
09:13She was a nice lady.
09:14But she was a bit naughty, too.
09:16And her family?
09:18Her family?
09:19They lived over in Shiraz.
09:21Her friend in Tehran
09:22was Ms. Vesali.
09:24Right.
09:25And how do you think
09:26I can meet this woman?
09:28She's a dressmaker.
09:30Her shop is on
09:31Istanbul Street.
09:34But I haven't seen her
09:34around for a month now.
09:42Hello, madam.
10:11Hello.
10:14How can I help you, mister?
10:15I'm from the police office, madam.
10:18The police?
10:19That's right.
10:21Oh, please, officer.
10:22My son is not guilty.
10:24He's innocent.
10:25Really, sir.
10:26He committed a minor offense.
10:29Oh, please forgive him.
10:31But, madam, I...
10:33For goodness sake.
10:34Please don't put him in prison.
10:35I promise to keep an eye on him.
10:37He won't do anything wrong again.
10:39What are you talking about, madam?
10:41Aren't you here
10:42because of Ali,
10:42the shop owner
10:43who is against my son?
10:45Uh...
10:46Please, my son.
10:47He only stole
10:48a teeny tiny candy bar.
10:50Please, that was it.
10:51Nothing more.
10:52Actually, I'm here
10:53for something else.
10:54Is this Miss Naira Shirazi's?
10:57Yes, sir.
10:58Are you her landlady?
11:00Yes, sir.
11:02Did you hear about her murder?
11:04Murder?
11:05Yes.
11:06Oh, no.
11:10Oh, dear.
11:19She was a very nice girl.
11:22Mm-hmm.
11:22She always paid her rent on time.
11:25Did she have any regular visitors?
11:27Not many,
11:28especially after she got divorced.
11:29No.
11:31Miss Visali would come here
11:32sometimes to visit her, though.
11:34She's a wonderful lady,
11:36and she can make
11:37some beautiful dresses as well.
11:40Mm.
11:44What did her husband do?
11:47He was such a carefree,
11:48jobless man,
11:49and who also became
11:50a drug addict.
11:52You know what he'd do to her.
11:54He would force the poor girl
11:55to borrow money for him
11:56to pay for all of his drugs.
11:58But they got divorced at last.
12:00By the way, detective,
12:03do you know why in the world
12:05she was killed?
12:06Uh, no, I don't know yet.
12:08I'm looking for the answer right now.
12:11The members of the association
12:13were generally sad
12:14about Levine's death
12:15when I told them
12:16he was practically their boss.
12:19But I guess Mr. Vakili
12:20wasn't so sad, sir.
12:23And who is that?
12:24Well, sir,
12:25he's a rich guy.
12:27Uh, he owns Cinema Korshid
12:29and Grand Cinema.
12:31He also has some different shops
12:33and is a shareholder
12:34of a major company.
12:35And did Levine have shares
12:37in the same company?
12:38Yeah, I think so.
12:40Apparently the two
12:41didn't get along regarding that.
12:43Know who the other shareholders
12:45of the company are?
12:46No, sir.
12:47But I do know that it's a firm
12:49with a monopoly on drug imports.
12:52Hmm.
12:53Well, then I suppose
12:54they're a collection
12:55of influential people.
12:58The motive behind the murder
13:00must have been
13:01either a personal matter
13:03or a financial dispute.
13:06Either possibility
13:07has to do with
13:08one of the victims,
13:09I'm sure.
13:13Next, Lieutenant,
13:13I want you to gather information
13:15about the dead lady's family.
13:17I'll take care of the possible suspects
13:19connected to Levine.
13:22I'll be right back.
13:22Amen.
13:23Thank you, sir.
13:24I'll take care of the facts
13:24and see you next time.
13:25I'll be right back.
13:26Very well.
13:28Bye-bye.
13:28Bye-bye.
13:33Bye-bye.
13:38Bye-bye.
13:40Bye-bye.
13:41Bye-bye.
13:42Bye-bye.
13:46Bye-bye.
13:47Bye-bye.
