00:01Tonight, wise guy.
00:04We better get him to the hospital.
00:05I'm thinking of putting somebody else in.
00:08Who?
00:08The only man I know that even comes close to being in your league.
00:13Do I have to tell you what could happen to an agent who doesn't have complete cover?
00:17No, you do not.
00:18So then why'd you bother bringing me down here for this dog and pony show?
00:21Because you did not go out on a win, John.
00:25You took it too far too fast.
00:27You rattled his cage. Now I've got to crawl in with him.
01:03I love you.
02:06Tickets and passport.
02:08Don't let them use their Sri Lanka charm on you.
02:10Yes, Dad.
02:12Will you stop with the yes, Dad?
02:13I know what I'm talking about.
02:15You know what these people are going to do?
02:17They're going to have this ripe brown goddess with a tie tack sticking out of her nose.
02:21She's going to clean your pipes, and then they're going to let you go home paying three cents a unit
02:26more than what we can get in Georgia.
02:30Sort of a Far East version of what we do.
02:33Don't tell me how to run my business.
02:35Dad, all I'm saying is it's my play.
02:37Let me make it, okay?
02:39You are witnessing lesson number 28 in the Eli Sternberg School of Kvetching and Guilt.
02:45I don't have to go through this Mishagas all the time.
02:47Just trust me, will you please?
02:50Seventy-cent ceiling?
02:51All right, all right.
02:52I personally guarantee a 70-cent ceiling.
02:55I have a flight to catch.
02:56Catch?
02:58Bye-bye, Uncle Phil.
02:59Lady, honey.
03:01Come on.
03:03I'm trusting you to protect my father from himself.
03:06Come on.
03:07I'm still undone.
03:11So what's your connection with Elrose, Vinny?
03:13Security.
03:15That's an interesting job description.
03:17Simple and to the point.
03:19Yeah, that's me.
03:25You expecting a late delivery?
03:27Late delivery.
03:31Hey!
03:32Hey!
03:34There he goes.
03:43Come back here, you gunner!
03:46Stop!
03:47You dirty, no-good him like you!
03:51Come back!
03:52Come back!
03:53Come back!
04:01Eddie, bring the car!
04:03Bring the car!
04:04Are you okay, Vinny?
04:07How bad is it?
04:08What did you hurt?
04:09We better get him to the hospital.
04:11I'll take him.
04:11Here.
04:12Lift him up.
04:20Watch his head.
04:23Wasn't that one of Pinzola's drivers?
04:24A man almost got killed, and you're worried about one lousy dress?
04:28Nobody takes from Eli Sternberg.
04:30That's it, isn't it?
04:31It always has to be about you.
04:34Eddie!
04:34Roosevelt Hospital.
04:51Hello.
04:52Hey, Frank.
04:53Yes, what is it?
04:55I'm having a bad couple of weeks here.
04:58I ran into a little problem.
05:00I got clobbered by a cab.
05:01You all right?
05:02I don't know.
05:04I think I might have a broken leg and some cracked ribs.
05:06They're going to take me down for some x-rays.
05:08I'll be right over.
05:09No, no.
05:10I'll be fine.
05:11I'll be fine.
05:12You'd be better off finding a way into that Pinzola banquet.
05:15There's going to be some guests that we should have on our Christmas card lists.
05:19Think you can wrangle an invite?
05:21Yeah, I think I know a way.
05:23Okay.
05:23We've got to go.
05:24I've got to go, Frank.
05:26Come on.
05:27Oh.
05:34Hold up a minute.
05:37Thanks for getting me here.
05:38It was no trouble.
05:40I'm good at hand, snotty.
05:41You don't have to hang around.
05:42I'd do anything to get out of one of those boring banquets.
05:46I'll bring you some real food when you get back.
05:48Okay.
05:49We'll see you later.
05:50Okay.
06:02Hey, Jack.
06:08Hello, Jack.
06:10I have my favorite newspaper columnist.
06:11Let's get a drink.
06:13Oh, he's wallowing in his element.
06:16Any problem getting in?
06:17No.
06:17The name is on the guest list, just like you said it would be.
06:20Excuse me, gentlemen.
06:22Could I have a ginger ale, please?
06:26Thanks.
06:29Well, looks like they rounded up the usual suspects.
06:33Benny Bozak.
06:34Benny Bozak.
06:34Borg Ness Transport.
06:37Revelle Jones from the mayor's office.
06:40I think you know the rest of the cast.
06:42Yeah, it's a real all-star crew.
06:45Can't tell the players about a program.
06:49Well, there's a lovely couple.
06:53Rick Penzola and Matt Borkowski.
06:55What has the head of the Harbor Commission so been out of joint?
06:58Borkowski.
06:59He's running for mayor.
07:01But this loony Ben, he is nuts.
07:05I always thought he did take one too many shots to the head when he was fighting golden gloves.
07:10Lucky for him, he's a better politician than he was a boxer.
07:14Is that the reason for this mating, Dan?
07:16Well, from what I hear, Benzola promised to bankroll a big chunk of Borkowski's mayoral campaign.
07:23He pulled out at the last minute.
07:25Which means Maddy has got to scramble it.
07:27He's going to fill his war chest.
07:28Maybe Benzola doesn't want a mayor that smells like a cheroot.
07:31What he doesn't want is a harbor he doesn't control.
07:34You control the harbor, you control New York.
07:36It's a very simple equation.
07:37Borkowski understands it.
07:39He doesn't have any fancy degrees, but he's a master at street politics.
07:42Why doesn't Benzola move him up in class?
07:45There's a reward for services rendered.
07:47Benzola's got to find another puppet first.
07:49No, the waiting must drive Borkowski nuts.
07:53Have you thought he could get away with it?
07:55He found a dark spike through Benzola's forehead.
08:06Welcome, everybody.
08:08As you know, we are all part of a singularly unified holistic community
08:14called Seventh Avenue.
08:25Tonight, we honor the author of that bon mot,
08:28Rick Pinzola, as GMTA Man of the Year.
08:44What was that?
08:44I thought you said you were going to get some real food.
08:46This is real food.
08:47I went all the way to the Carnegie to get it.
08:50Beats the hell out of the rubber chicken they're serving at the GMTA dinner tonight.
08:53Yeah, well, I thought that dinner was a little bit far west of Fifth Avenue for you.
08:59Oh, you mean now that I'm such an important maca on Wall Street?
09:02Yeah.
09:03You sound like my cousin David.
09:05Sometimes I think he doesn't realize I'm all grown up.
09:09Oh, I've been going to those garment district dinners since I was a little girl.
09:13Now, all those men who used to want me to sit on their laps want to crawl into bed with
09:17me,
09:18literally and figuratively.
09:19Oh, well.
09:21You sound like you get some satisfaction out of that.
09:24You bet I do.
09:28Normally, the family Sternberg only leaves psychological scars.
09:33Yeah, I thought I detected a little iciness there.
09:36Triglacial.
09:37I don't think he even notices.
09:39My mother?
09:40She wouldn't even stay in the same room with him.
09:44Goes back a long way between you and Eli, doesn't it?
09:47I used to hide when he came over to our house to see my father.
09:51How long has your father worked for Eli?
09:53Eli worked for him.
09:55The business was my father's.
09:57Eli was his salesman.
10:00When my father was first starting out,
10:03he was servicing one small army contract.
10:06When the war broke out,
10:08Eli parlayed that one contract into dozens,
10:10all with his name on them.
10:12By the time the war was over,
10:15my father was working in Eli's cutting room.
10:18The shop was called Elrose.
10:22Didn't your father realize what Eli was doing?
10:24My father doesn't know business.
10:25I do.
10:27Oh, okay.
10:28I'd better go.
10:30Okay.
10:42That was simple and to the point.
10:45In my business, I don't win around for an invitation.
10:48You take what you want or someone else will.
10:52Oh, what are you doing?
10:55I thought you got paid to be rough.
11:01Good night.
11:03All right.
11:14Thanks, Hank.
11:15That wraps it up for the speeches.
11:17Now eat, dance, and enjoy yourself.
11:19Hold it.
11:20I have something I want to say about...
11:24about our honored guest...
11:30Eli Sternberg.
11:45Many of you folks might not know that our honored guest, Rick Gonzalo,
11:50was mugged on the way here to the banquet tonight.
11:54He gave the guy a C-note and then took back 12 bucks.
11:59And the guy says, hey, what the hell are you doing?
12:02And Rick said, I always take 12% off the top of any business transaction on 7th Avenue.
12:12And I'm sure a lot of you folks don't know that Rick is a big art collector.
12:18Art Stein's trucking firm.
12:22Art Dwarnek's manufacturing company.
12:25Art Broadman's assembly plant.
12:30You know, in the Garmin District, we have a favor-for-favor system.
12:36You do Rick a favor, and he does one for you.
12:44He lets you walk without crutches.
12:47Wonderful human beings.
12:57Hi.
12:59You think you could give me a minute?
13:06Well, how are you feeling?
13:09Well, I can't walk.
13:13I can't breathe.
13:14The other night, I'm okay.
13:16That's great.
13:17Just great.
13:18Look, here's a list of people that were at the banquet tonight.
13:22It's a souvenir program.
13:23Some very interesting people took out ads telling Rick Penzola what a terrific guy he is.
13:29Yeah, some people say anything.
13:31Well, there are a couple gentlemen there tonight that didn't re-up in the I Love Rick Penzola fan club.
13:36Your friend Eli and a guy named Matt Burkowski.
13:40Well, a guy from the Harbor Commission.
13:41Mm-hmm.
13:43Human snowplow.
13:45Yeah, he was in Penzola's face big time tonight.
13:48And then Eli barbecued Penzola in his pre-dinner speech.
13:52Oh, man.
13:54You ask me, Eli's torn with a cobra.
13:57With Penzola, it's not if he'll strike, it's when.
14:02I promised David Steinberg I'd protect his father.
14:07You know, it's a promise I can't keep.
14:13Vinny, I'm thinking of putting somebody else in.
14:16Well, who are you going to get, Frank?
14:18Penzola is smart, he's thorough, and he's cautious.
14:21The only reason I got close to him is because I got a history that he bought into.
14:25Well, now, do you think that you are the only one that has a history?
14:29Where's Mr. Terranova's room?
14:38Hey, Rick.
14:41Did you hear what happened tonight?
14:43No.
14:45Eli Sternberg used tonight's dinner to link me to a past that I have distanced myself from.
14:50I don't enjoy being humiliated in front of 500 people.
14:54Yeah, well, Eli's still got a rash from that trucking deal you stuck him with.
14:57His old deal was a gift from my father.
15:00He's choking on your rates, Rick.
15:02Before we left for the banquet, one of your drivers stole one of Eli's dresses.
15:06He thinks I had something to do with that?
15:08Well, he's got a siege mentality.
15:12There is this assumption on 7th Avenue that all problems stop at the revolving door of my lobby.
15:20I have my own particular problems.
15:23Eli lost one dress.
15:24Jess, I lost six trucks in the last two months.
15:28Now, I want you to get somebody to sit on Eli.
15:31I have a part and everybody's busy.
15:35Do it.
15:51Pinzola just left us the opening we need.
15:54I want to put somebody else on the inside.
15:56Who?
15:59The only man I know that even comes close to being in your league.
16:13John Henry Raglin.
16:17It's been a long time.
16:20Six years, three months, two weeks, and five days.
16:24But who's counting?
16:26Hi, Frank.
16:27How are you?
16:28I'm good.
16:28It's good to see you, John.
16:30Yeah.
16:30You too.
16:31Well, you've changed.
16:33No, this is who I always was.
16:37Raglin, you remember?
16:38It's just a role I played.
16:40I need you to play it again.
16:43That ended when I left Phoenix.
16:47I don't need to spend another minute in the company of crazy people.
16:51Are you happy running a computer all day?
16:54It has its moments, yeah.
16:56You're satisfied with electronic stings?
16:58I'm satisfied taking long walks with my wife.
17:02My second wife.
17:03And I'm satisfied driving up to Baltimore to watch ball games with my son.
17:08The son my first wife didn't stick around to help me raise.
17:11And I'll tell you something else while I'm rattling on.
17:15I'm satisfied with my dreams now.
17:19Used to be that all I dreamt about was how that reporter looked after they blew him up.
17:23Remember, Frank?
17:25Well, Phoenix could do that to you when I was there.
17:28And I don't need to put myself through that kind of hell again.
17:33I mean, it took three years for my palms to stop sweating.
17:37John, you're as good as I've ever seen.
17:39Yeah, well, I was good enough to get out from undercover in one piece.
17:44Four more years.
17:45Inside, I got my pension, Frank.
17:47Your pension?
17:48You know, I spent enough time with you to know you didn't become a cop just to survive.
17:52You wanted to send one big message to the crap out there that think they're beyond the law.
17:57Well, I'm offering you the chance.
18:00You ever heard of Rick Penzola?
18:01The kid?
18:02The kid is not a kid anymore.
18:04He's all grown up.
18:05He controls the New York Garment District.
18:07We had an agent under with him, but he, uh...
18:10Killed?
18:11No, hit by a cat.
18:13It was an accident.
18:15We need somebody to take his place until he can get back on his feet.
18:18Maybe I can dig somebody up who knows the rag trade.
18:21The rag trade, John?
18:23I read a lot.
18:24Oh?
18:26Well...
18:28Read this.
18:30This is Rick Penzola's empire.
18:33It's an industry that generates $20 billion annually, and he's bleeding it dry.
18:38The solid lines indicate people and businesses we know he's connected to.
18:41The broken lines are suspected connections.
18:44Doesn't look like you laid a glove on him.
18:46Oh, Penzola's never been arrested, much less convicted.
18:49The agent we had under got next to him.
18:51How'd he manage that?
18:53A gentleman named David Sternberg approached us.
18:56He's the son of Eli Sternberg, the president of Elrose Fashions.
18:59Now, Sternberg's had a run of bad luck, ran into a cash flow problem, had to go on the street
19:04for $2 million.
19:05Now, our agent...
19:06Give him a name, Frank.
19:07Vincent Terranova got things straightened out for the Sternbergs, so they're off the hook for the loan.
19:12And Penzola hired him as some kind of a double agent, so he'd keep an eye on them.
19:16Wait a minute.
19:18This David Sternberg came to you, right?
19:21Does he know who Terranova is?
19:25That's great.
19:26Esther's great, Frank.
19:28He approached us, John.
19:30Do I have to tell you what could happen to an agent who doesn't have complete cover?
19:34Damn it, Frank, do I?
19:36No, you do not.
19:37So then why'd you bother bringing me down here for this dog and pony show?
19:40No, because you did not go out on a wind, John.
19:50Raglan.
19:55I know you from somewhere.
19:59I did time in Leavenworth with a cousin of yours, Jackie Mosca.
20:05Jackie Mosca?
20:08Oh, yeah, old Jackie.
20:11He always courted trouble.
20:13That's a romance I can't afford.
20:17You don't look like you travel in those circles.
20:21I dwell in possibility.
20:24You, me, and Emily Dickinson, all right?
20:27But sometimes reality intrudes.
20:32Eli Sternberg is a reality.
20:35He's my next stop.
20:38But Vinny thought I should visit you first as a courtesy.
20:42Any special requests?
20:44Terranova's beeper survive?
20:50No, just do your job for Eli.
20:54Keep your ears open.
20:56Come when you're called.
21:01Raglan.
21:05Just because I went to an Ivy League school,
21:07that doesn't mean you get to quote poetry to me.
21:11So much of a lively repartee, huh?
21:24Who is John Henry Raglan?
21:27The Secretary of State arrived in Brussels today
21:29for a meeting of NATO defense ministers.
21:32Topping the agenda is a call for a reduction
21:34in NATO forces and nuclear armaments.
21:37Excuse me.
21:37I'm looking for a Mr. Eli Sternberg.
21:39He can't be disturbed.
21:41Vinny Terranova sent me.
21:43Oh.
21:45In there.
21:50What are you saying?
21:51It's out of the question.
21:54They got airports, don't they?
21:57The hell with closed down.
21:59This is my son we're talking about.
22:02Sternberg.
22:03I told you before.
22:06David Sternberg.
22:08S-T-E-R-N-B-E-R-G.
22:16His name isn't in hospital reports.
22:19Can I help you?
22:19I'm Vinny Terranova's associate.
22:21You don't have any?
22:22What happened?
22:23There was a bomb in the hotel where my son was staying.
22:27Terrorists in Sri Lanka.
22:29Is he hurt?
22:30We can't find out.
22:32Who's he talking to?
22:33State Department.
22:34I don't want to know about no phone service.
22:37What is your name?
22:38I say, what is your name?
22:40I need your name so I can call your superiors and tell them what an idiot you are.
22:45Do you hear me?
22:47Do you hear me?
22:49You incompetent bastard.
22:51They're not keeping me out of banana land.
22:54Nobody can get in.
22:55What can we do?
22:56I'll charter a plane and fly it up their noses.
22:59How can they stop that?
23:00Shoot me down?
23:02Who the hell is that?
23:03John Raglan.
23:05I'm Vinny's replacement.
23:06I never want the Terranova around.
23:08I don't need you around.
23:09Maybe I can help.
23:11Yeah, by leaving.
23:13Let me make one call.
23:19This one doesn't look like you could make a muscle.
23:22This is Raglan.
23:24You got a list of victims yet in that hotel bombing in Sri Lanka?
23:28Anything at all on a David Sternberg?
23:32What about his room?
23:33Was it hit?
23:35Anything else?
23:38Okay, thanks.
23:39I'll be in touch.
23:43The bomb went off in the hotel bar.
23:45Anything about my son?
23:47You're going to let me finish?
23:51The bomb went off in the hotel bar.
23:54Apparently, his son's room wasn't touched.
23:56Who told you that?
23:57Someone I can trust.
23:59And are they always right?
24:01Up until now.
24:06Look, I'm sorry.
24:08I apologize for blowing up.
24:09It's just that
24:11I'm scared.
24:17Are you telling me this guy's in already?
24:19I told you he's good.
24:21He's in place until you're 100%.
24:24In fact, I'll be out of here inside a week.
24:26What, Oral Roberts is going to pay you a personal visit?
24:36All right, so who is he?
24:37You never heard of him.
24:39Then where's he been?
24:40He's been inside, working with computers.
24:45The job screw him up?
24:47The job is hard on everybody.
24:50Yeah.
24:51Mm-hmm.
24:55It bent him, didn't it, Frank?
25:01Eli, why don't you go home already?
25:03Go home to what?
25:05A shiksa wife who fakes concern like she fakes an orgasm?
25:09No, I'm staying here.
25:11Did you tell his mother?
25:14Rose is in Florida.
25:15Why alarm her until I have more information?
25:17Because she's his mother.
25:19Yeah.
25:22You remember when she used to bring David here when he was, what, four or five?
25:28He thought this was a playground.
25:31He used to crumb to the table picking up scraps of material.
25:34He was probably looking up the women's dresses.
25:39And the laughs he got with his jokes and his funny faces.
25:46He was smart right from the beginning.
25:49A son to make his father proud.
25:51I was blessed.
25:53So why don't you ever tell him?
25:55He knows.
25:57Don't you think he knows?
25:58No, I don't think he knows.
26:00Carol, please, this isn't the time.
26:03I'll tell you how much I love him, Carol.
26:05When he gets home, when he walks through that door,
26:07I'm giving him half of this business.
26:10He becomes a full partner with me.
26:12It's a beautiful gesture.
26:18What if he's dead?
26:21Phil, what if he's dead?
26:23No, no, no, you're out of here.
26:29I don't belong here.
26:30Yeah, I'll show you around.
26:41You don't enjoy family angst, Mr. Ranglin?
26:43I never thought of it as a spectator sport, that's all.
26:46Oh, this is no sport.
26:47My father is in there consoling the man
26:50who stole his business almost 40 years ago.
26:52You know what it's like to watch your father play the fool?
26:55Whoa, lady.
26:56Eli made my father beg for everything,
26:58and then he throws it in his face every chance that he gets.
27:01You should talk to someone about this problem you've got.
27:05It's no problem.
27:06It taught me life's most important lesson.
27:10If you're not in control, you're nothing.
27:17All news, all the time.
27:19This is WINS.
27:23You give us 22 minutes.
27:25We'll give you the world.
27:29Good evening.
27:30Martha Elliott at the top of the hour with tonight's news.
27:32Our main story remains the hotel bombing in Sri Lanka.
27:36Let's hear from correspondent Duncan Trevor reporting from Thailand.
27:40Investigators continue to comb the wreckage of the luxury hotel in Sri Lanka,
27:45where a terrorist bomb today killed three people and injured 27 others.
27:50A Tamil revolutionary group has claimed responsibility for the bombing.
27:54Three Americans reportedly died in the bombing of the Palace Court Hotel.
27:59State Department officials have yet to identify any of the victims.
28:03One of the victims, David.
28:16Dear Mom, well, I'm too old for a steakhouse.
28:19No offense, Mom, but here I am anyway, eyeballing the harbor because somebody's been hijacking a mob guy's trucks.
28:25Don't worry, I didn't volunteer.
28:28Ha, ha, ha.
28:30A cab broke up my best undercover man and his replacements working the other end of the deal.
28:37As for me, your darling son, I got the booby prize.
28:45Oh, come on, Frankie, you can stay awake, big guy.
28:50You can do it.
28:51You can do it.
28:52Oh, come on, Frankie.
29:05Oh, come on.
29:09Oh, come on.
29:20Oh, come on.
29:28Uh-huh, what have we here?
29:41Now I know where Ricky's trucks are going.
29:44It's Bosca.
30:22Come on.
30:31Come on, turn on your lights.
30:44I don't know who you are, but I'm going to find out.
30:48You're mine.
31:10Yeah, what can I do for you, Frank?
31:12Plate number, X-ray, Harry, Nancy, 630.
31:21You got anything else on David Sternberg?
31:23No, I'm still trying to unrun the State Department.
31:29All right.
31:31That plate belongs to one Seamus J. Devlin, 8855 Shiller Street, Queens.
31:38He's a Harbor Commission cop.
31:43He's a Harbor Cop?
31:44Yeah, 18-year veteran.
31:47He's got a handful of bravery citations.
31:49Medal of valor, currently assigned to Commissioner Borkowski.
31:53He works for Borkowski.
31:56Their drawer full of medals wasn't enough for his old age.
32:01Thanks, Uncle.
32:08Yes?
32:13Stop down at the corner deli.
32:16Picked you up some coffee.
32:22That's very nice.
32:26No bagels, too.
32:29No, that'll be fine.
32:33Do you have a good relationship with your father?
32:37Good relationship?
32:39Good father.
32:40Nice.
32:44I never took my David to a baseball game.
32:47Why not?
32:48Oh, too busy.
32:51I thought it was more important to be here, earning money.
32:54Sounds like an excuse to me.
32:56Really?
32:57Well, I clawed my way out of Flatbush, and I swore I'd do anything not to go back there.
33:09Hmm.
33:11The night David was born, I was out on the dock.
33:20Loading the trucks myself.
33:25I drove a delivery van to that hospital, and I held that little person in my hands, and I vowed
33:35that he'd have everything I never had.
33:49But if he's not here to run this business after I'm gone, that means my whole life was for nothing.
34:03If he comes home, you'll have a chance to tell him.
34:08Oh.
34:10I give every dime I have for that chance.
34:20He's ripe for the taking.
34:22Elrose is in turmoil.
34:23Eli isn't even paying any attention to the business, and the plant is closed down.
34:27You're not exactly grief-stricken over your cousin, are you?
34:30You don't have an inkling about my feelings for David.
34:34But not even David can change the way I feel about Eli.
34:37These things have a delicate balance to them.
34:40You tip that balance, the slightest fraction, and the whole thing could come crashing down on us.
34:44On Wall Street, when you see a weakness, you capitalize on it.
34:48Strike hard and fast.
34:50Now, I say we move in now.
34:52No, we stick to our regular agenda.
34:55Z-Mart, Vetrano, and Mr. Chin.
34:58You know what we're talking about?
35:00We're talking about $200 million.
35:03Now, if jealousy be a natural byproduct, well, that's fine.
35:06So be it.
35:07But I will not have emotion be the driving factor in any of my business deals.
35:26Is there anything else you wanted to discuss?
35:31You're acting like a typical Guinea.
35:45Hello?
35:46Dad?
35:49David?
35:51David?
35:52Where are you?
35:53Dad, I'm okay.
35:55No, I'm...
35:56I swear, I'm fine.
35:59Yeah, no, I'm in Hawaii.
36:00We thought you were dead.
36:02I didn't find out about the bomb until I flipped on the news here in my hotel.
36:07Listen, Dad, I closed the deal.
36:09David.
36:10What are you doing?
36:11I'm in Hawaii.
36:12David.
36:13Dad, Dad, you hear what I said?
36:14I closed the deal.
36:16Oh, yeah.
36:17Uh, what did you close at?
36:19Dad, I had to grease a business agent about 2,000 bucks.
36:22Did you get our price?
36:2475 cents a unit.
36:26I thought we agreed to a 70-cent ceiling.
36:29You should have stayed there until you got it.
36:31Now, I need you back here.
36:33Get on the next flight.
36:35Phil, open the plant.
36:37We got a deadline to meet.
36:38And you, you're getting paid for doing more than just delivering coffee around here.
36:42I want those trucks moving now.
37:02Right?
37:02Go see me.
37:04Go.
37:04Go.
37:05And you go for it.
37:06Go for it.
37:07I just didn't shoot you as look at you.
37:09You just stepped in at Devlin.
37:13All right, get him out of my sight.
37:20Devlin, there is no rogue cop heaven.
37:23Give it up.
37:26Oh.
37:29You know, you make me wish I was a bounty hunter.
37:32Your client's future is pretty well defined.
37:34Loss of job, loss of pension.
37:37Public disgrace for his family and at least five years in maximum security prison.
37:41He still needs a reason to cooperate.
37:44His prison time can be cut.
37:46I'm not rolling over. I'm not, damn it.
37:48And what do you think Bukowski's doing?
37:50Running for office like he always does.
37:51You're fishing, McPike.
37:53Bukowski is dumping all over you.
37:55You gonna take a fall for him? Is he worth it?
37:59Ran you like an electric train, didn't he?
38:01He's my boss on the Harbor Commission.
38:03That's the only weight he carries with me. Fat slob.
38:05Geez, that's not what he says.
38:07He says the hijacking ring was your idea.
38:09You believe that crap?
38:11It's the only crap that I have to believe.
38:13Now, you know how the routine works.
38:14First guy to cop a plea walks.
38:16The way I see it, you and Bukowski are in the home stretch together.
38:19It doesn't make any difference to me which one of you hits the finish line first.
38:22Answer the man, Devlin.
38:25Come on, Devlin.
38:28Now, you went native.
38:32Don't go simple.
38:33Not now.
38:37Let's say we get this on tape.
38:44I don't know what gets into a man like this.
38:50First, he forgets his wife's birthday.
38:53Then he tries to hide his shame in a bottle.
38:59And then, when that doesn't work,
39:01he tries to make amends by stealing one of Eli's dresses off the back of one of my trucks.
39:09The very truck from which he earns his living.
39:16Do you know what my father would have done?
39:18My father would have chopped off the hand you used to betray us.
39:25What about you, Raglan?
39:29What would you do with our dear friend, Mario?
39:33Tell his wife so she can kick his butt.
39:37No.
39:39Take him to Eli and see that he apologizes.
39:43And then tell Eli
39:46that he is never again
39:48to embarrass me
39:50in public.
39:56Let's go, Mario.
40:03Take care of yourself.
40:05How's your wife?
40:08I've got kids.
40:09I've got two kids.
40:11Excuse me.
40:13Matt Brokowski?
40:15Do I know you?
40:16No, but you're going to.
40:19Frank McPike, OCB.
40:23Let's, uh, take a walk, all right?
40:26Mm-hmm.
40:30Cup to go, Maggie.
40:31Black.
40:35Devlin's lying.
40:37He's running some kind of a game on you.
40:40Yeah, well, I got a source that corroborates the story that Pinzola cut off your water.
40:45They got campaign contribution laws.
40:49And from a guinea gangster?
40:51Hey, I wouldn't talk to the man about the price of a phone call.
40:56Pinzola's a freaking sewer.
40:58You didn't have any trouble communicating at the truckman's banquet.
41:01What got your nose so bent out of joint?
41:03That, that wasn't anything.
41:05Nah, that's nothing.
41:06What's a million bucks?
41:08Hey, I told you.
41:09Now, I'm going to tell you, you're facing grand larceny charges, sport.
41:13You're going to do time, you're going to do hard time.
41:15You don't play ball with me.
41:16You got a house of cards, McPike.
41:19I blow, and it falls down.
41:22You really think so?
41:23Devlin's on tape about the forged documents that he used to get the hijacked goods out of the country.
41:30Don't be stupid.
41:31You give us what you got on Pinzola, you walk.
41:37All I got from Pinzola was promises.
41:40Tomorrow, Maddie.
41:42Next week, Maddie.
41:43Next election, Maddie.
41:44I mean, got so, my heart was jumping out of my chest wondering how he was going to stall me
41:47next.
41:48He ever give you any money?
41:50I told you.
41:51Just promises.
41:52Any witnesses to your conversation?
41:54We weren't doing this for posterity.
41:57Then you got problems.
41:59Take him downtown.
42:02You son of a bitch!
42:05It's my own damn fault, you know that, McPike?
42:08I never should have done business with cops.
42:10Because you're all the same when you get caught working the wrong side of the street.
42:15Oh, you got this thing about still wanting to be straight shooters.
42:19So you roll over like dogs doing tricks.
42:23Geez, I'll remember that.
42:31What have you got for me?
42:32I'm in a hurry.
42:33Say hello to Mario.
42:34He works for Amici Trucking.
42:35Is he the one?
42:36The one and only.
42:38I'm sorry, Mr. Sternberg.
42:39I got drunk and my wife's birthday...
42:41You got drunk and I lose goods?
42:43And Terranova gets run down in the bargain.
42:45Why didn't you come to me?
42:46I'd have given you six dresses.
42:48But you think it's easy to be a thief.
42:51Get out of my sight.
42:52Get out of here!
42:56Did Pinzola send him?
42:58Yeah.
42:59Along with the message.
43:01Oh, what?
43:03Don't ever embarrass him in public again.
43:06He said that.
43:08Pinzola said that.
43:12Well, he's got his eight and two shipping rates, doesn't he?
43:15And I've got the right to say anything I want.
43:17If he doesn't like that, he can go to hell.
43:25Borkowski took my trucks.
43:28He says they were for a campaign contribution that you promised and you never deliver on.
43:34It was for a million bucks, wasn't it?
43:39I don't buy politicians, Mr. McPike.
43:43You know, that's not what Borkowski says.
43:46If I recall his words properly, you're a freaking sewer.
43:49You came here to tell me that?
43:52Boy, you guys are unbelievable.
43:55You see the vowel at the end of my name?
43:57You know who my father was.
43:59And you believe this Judas who has betrayed the public trust.
44:03You buy into his lies about a respected businessman
44:06who has never had so much as a ticket for spitting on the sidewalk yet.
44:10But you have spit on the sidewalk, haven't you?
44:12Engouge money, taking kickbacks, let workers be abused.
44:15Even bought a politician or two.
44:18You'd better leave and take your wish list with you.
44:21The harbor's not yours anymore, Mr. Pinzola.
44:24It's mine.
44:27Hey, get out.
44:29You don't like this, do you?
44:31Well, good.
44:31I'm glad you don't like it.
44:33Because every minute that you're awake,
44:35I want you to know that I'm out there
44:37trying to slap your tail in jail with a bunch of animals
44:41that'll do more than wipe that smug look off your face.
44:44Thank you for your candor, Mr. McPike.
44:46I want you to know that everything you have just said has been videotaped,
44:49which should give me the makings of a pretty significant harassment suit.
44:52You're a worm, Ricky.
44:54I'm a worm.
44:55Okay.
44:56There are three cameras in this room.
44:57I think your last statement was probably picked up
44:59by the one hidden in that painting right there.
45:03This picture?
45:04Yeah.
45:05Hey!
45:09Gotcha.
45:15There's no way Bukowski skates.
45:17We got him cold.
45:17The harbor cops, too.
45:19You know, Pinzola's a different story,
45:21but I think I started the ball rolling.
45:23You took it too far, too fast.
45:25Pinzola ticked me off.
45:28That's great, Frank.
45:29You rattled his cage.
45:31Now I've got to crawl in with him.
46:05Who are you?
46:08I'm John Henry Ragland.
46:10I thought we'd better talk.
46:12You're not going to like it,
46:14but I need to know everything you can tell me about this case,
46:17because it's mine now.
46:18I'm John Henry Ragland.
46:38I've got to know everything you can tell me about this.
46:39That's a good thing.
46:40Now I'm going to like it,
46:41I'm going to like it.
46:43I'm going to like it,
46:47and I'm going to like it.
46:47I'm going to like it.
