00:09Tonight, on Wiseguy, killed two men yesterday.
00:13I'll find this guy.
00:14This guy's a pro.
00:15We're not the only people looking for Vince.
00:17You got a badge?
00:18No, but I got a gun.
00:19He'll put a hole in your forehead and make you look like you died on Ash Wednesday.
00:23The Catholic Church.
00:24That's what he'd go to.
00:25Fuck.
00:28Help me.
00:29I'm looking for this man.
00:31You can't hide from a friend.
00:32That's right, Vince.
00:35I'm looking for this man.
00:36I'm looking for this man.
01:03I'm looking for this man.
02:05You know what happens to that stuff that we take out of the hospitals?
02:07The bags break open half the time.
02:09The stuff goes down into the sewer and into the water system.
02:12There is a screw right down the street from the dump.
02:14The sewer carries that stuff right past it.
02:16These kids are getting sick from it.
02:17I'll worry about the water system.
02:23You don't know who you're screwing with!
02:25H.E.S. is poisoning our kids.
02:27On your letterhead, if he's blowing you in to me,
02:30who else is on his mailing list?
02:32I'm taking care of it.
02:33He won't be sending any more letters.
02:35We ain't gonna come after you.
02:37We're on the clock.
02:39We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:05We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:08We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:12We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:17We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:18We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:18We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:19We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:21We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:24We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:27We're gonna wait for you as long as it takes.
03:30I don't know.
04:11I don't know.
04:24I don't know.
04:24Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.
04:29God, forgive me.
04:34I killed two men yesterday.
04:42I've lost track of how many men I killed.
04:49No, wait, wait.
04:51I have it.
04:52I know every single one of them.
04:54They all sit on my soul.
04:58Like little soldiers.
05:01And they have these mirrored faces.
05:04And they're muttering existential crap at me.
05:13They say, I am you.
05:17And you are me.
05:20Cuckoo, ca-choo.
05:28I miss my feet.
05:34My brother was a priest.
05:41He was killed by a neighborhood beggar.
05:46It was vehicular homicide.
05:53I rode.
05:54I rode in the same truck with that son of a bitch.
05:57I rode in the same truck.
05:59They killed my brother.
06:02And I didn't do anything.
06:05I did nothing for my own brother.
06:15But I've killed other men for less.
06:20But justice says it's okay.
06:23It's right there on my file.
06:25Justice says, hey, way to go, Vince.
06:31When you carry a shield,
06:35you can do anything.
06:37As long as you take the time to figure it out.
06:42I could shoot you.
06:45Right through this booth.
06:48And I'd get away with it.
06:51As long as I took the time to figure it out.
07:00I slugged you scum, father.
07:05I'm a professional scum, slugger.
07:13They muck up my boots and my legs.
07:17And they leech for me.
07:18Whatever it is that makes me know right from wrong.
07:20I just can't think any more of it.
07:25Son?
07:28What is your last name?
07:37Terranova.
07:43Are you an officer of the law?
07:46Law?
07:46What law?
07:47What the hell are you talking about?
07:49I'm an officer of the government.
07:51I'm a button man for the bureaucracy.
08:01I'm an officer.
08:01Help me, father.
08:03Please.
08:09Father...
08:15I was going to throw myself off the bridge.
08:20I heard your church bells ringing
08:25It was like
08:27It was like they were ringing my last chance
08:33Father
08:37Help me
08:48The bells in this church
08:50Haven't rung in a decade
09:19This is very nice
09:20I can see why you've been so happy here in the Emerald City
09:22Is the OCB here any closer to Vince?
09:27We didn't tell OCB
09:29What do you mean?
09:31He's here, Frank
09:32I know it
09:34We'll find him
09:35So you just forget about procedure?
09:39So what?
09:40This is Vinnie we're talking about
09:41Oh, so what?
09:42I live my life by the rules
09:44I doesn't deserve just a Mario
09:45So what?
09:46It's what keeps me from taking a gun sometimes
09:47And blowing my brains out
09:49Sorry
09:54Maybe you should go back to New York
09:55Maybe I should go back to New York
09:57But first we're gonna find Vince
09:58Then I'll go home
09:59What's this?
10:02Alright, so?
10:03The police think that it was a professional hit
10:06Word on the street is that they're looking for a guy
10:08Who posed as a drifter named Vinnie
10:10Seattle PD made the slugs
10:12Teflon coated 38s
10:14At standard issue in Lynchboro
10:15That's the same gun Vinnie was packing
10:22He'd run
10:23He's emotionally wounded prey
10:25He won't move till he's healed
10:27Look, these guys Vince hit were button men
10:30One of them had a magnum
10:31And the other one had a tricked out shotgun
10:33And a holster sewn into his coat
10:36Alright, we're not the only people looking for Vince
10:38You have any idea who they work for?
10:40We don't know
11:00So what's his name?
11:03Vinnie...
11:04He didn't give me a last name
11:06So what am I supposed to do?
11:08Call the East Coast
11:09And see if anybody in their organization
11:11Knows a guy named Vinnie?
11:15How the hell did you end up hiring a pro
11:17To cart garbage?
11:18Well, what am I supposed to do?
11:20Conduct a talent hunt for these guys?
11:23It's fecal matter, Harriet
11:24No one with brains wants to touch it
11:26So where'd you find him then?
11:27He showed up at the office
11:29They all do
11:30They're either drugged out or scared
11:32I thought this one was scared
11:34John, I do nothing gaudy
11:36Nothing flashy
11:37Nothing stupid
11:38I pay attention to detail
11:41And I make safe, conservative decisions
11:45You hire a professional killer
11:51Yes, ma'am?
11:53Uh, get me Charles Bowden
11:54At the commissioner's advisory board
11:56Yes, Mrs. Weiss
11:59Business is troubleshooting
12:01If you're not good at that
12:02You're not worth the fecal matter
12:03You're carrying
12:10You wouldn't know
12:10What real trouble is that, would you?
12:12Saul took care of that
12:13Thirty years ago
12:13Before you were born
12:16You've never seen it
12:17Because this is a safe place
12:19We don't shoot each other in Seattle
12:22That's why we survive
12:23And that's why we flourish
12:25Now, thanks to you
12:27We got East Coast trouble on our streets
12:32Chairman Bowden, line two
12:38Charlie
12:39I've got one foot in it already
12:41We have to find him, Charlie
12:42If he's any good, he should be gone
12:45Well, is he?
12:46I think we've got a real crusader here
12:48At least that's what Emmett Sol says
12:50Stretch called you?
12:51He thinks he got correspondence from the shooter
12:54Trying to connect HES with that hepatitis crap
12:59Harriet?
13:00Harriet?
13:01You know, Emmett's an old woman
13:03You should have dropped him out of that third-story window
13:05When you had the chance
13:06Yeah, but Saul wanted his suit
13:10Yeah
13:12Anyway, the police report's here
13:14Paperwork on the lab should be coming down any minute
13:17I'll check back East
13:18See what I can turn up
13:19I love you, Charlie
13:21You too
13:26You want me to just forget about this?
13:30I want you to run your elimination service the way it should be run
13:33I've been at this thing since college
13:36It always shows profit, which you take a piece of
13:39Without getting your manicure and the crap I gotta move
13:41Or dealing with the drones I gotta hire to move it
13:44John, I changed your diapers when you were a kid
14:07I'll change your diaper, you incontinent old bag
14:37Just a man who rented the room
14:42And better days, maybe
14:43Okay
14:45You guys already broke the lock
15:16I'll change your diapers
15:17Let's go.
15:42Hey, genius.
15:45What do you know about the guy staying here who shot those two guys?
15:48He left.
15:49Good. Now tell me something I don't know.
15:52You got a badge?
15:53No.
15:54But I got a gun. I'll put a hole in your forehead and make you look like you died on
15:57Ash Wednesday.
15:59Ask the guy who just left. He's got a picture of his.
16:02Okay. He was in the pen. How about that?
16:04I want this thing. It's just here.
16:06Vince was here, but he's gone.
16:184-1-8.
16:21Write it down.
16:224-1-8.
16:24If I'd just killed two local mob strong arms, I'd get out of town.
16:28Yeah, if it was a premeditated act, this was self-defense.
16:31Well, now it's self-preservation. I'd leave town.
16:34This is a mess. And you tell me how long we're going to keep it from the OCB that one
16:37of their own is going around murdering local thugs.
16:39Come on. It wasn't murder.
16:40Well, what do you call it?
16:42We're not going to get anywhere by reverting to emotionalism.
16:45Why don't we work this like we're looking for somebody we don't care about?
16:47All right.
16:51We'll find him, Frank.
16:54We'll find him.
16:58Flop houses don't have maid service.
17:01There are finger prints in there from a couple of dozen guys.
17:04Come on, Charlie. How many of them can be fresh?
17:06This isn't like buying bread. It takes time.
17:08Well, how long does it take to run down that plate?
17:11Nag, nag, nag.
17:22Wait a minute. Something's coming through now.
17:27Jam it.
17:28What is it?
17:29The plate. Information not available.
17:32It's a federal car. We can't talk now.
17:41I want you to get your things out of health elimination services.
17:45I'm turning it over to Donna to run.
17:47Harriet, you're getting hysterical.
17:56That's not hysterical.
18:00That's hysterical.
18:03Now, you've got one job to do.
18:05And that is to get this Vinnie didn't give me a last name and bust him up.
18:14If you don't do this right,
18:16you're going to lose a lot more than your job.
18:20Do you understand me?
18:22Or do you want me to draw you little pictures?
18:29Yeah.
18:30I understand you, Harriet.
18:33You don't have to march around here
18:35and smack me around like you've got to display your virility.
18:37I understand the gravity of the situation.
18:42Then do it.
18:44Instead of displaying your grasp of vocabulary.
19:03Honest to God, Saul, you've left me surrounded by schmucks.
19:14Put it on the street.
19:16There's a thousand bucks in it for anybody who puts me in touch with this guy.
19:44There's some wine in the cupboard.
19:54Thank you for the food before us, for the shelter around us.
19:58And thank you for the blessings of Vinnie that we might find in each other,
20:01the strength to find ourselves.
20:04Amen.
20:05Amen.
20:08And now,
20:10there was this cash job?
20:13Yeah.
20:15I went to this place,
20:17health elimination systems,
20:19and they paid a hundred bucks cash to remove waste from hospitals.
20:22And we'd take it to this lot.
20:24And the bags would leak down into this drain.
20:27And the drain ran right by a public school where there was an outbreak of hepatitis.
20:34And all I wanted to do was sleep.
20:37But you were a policeman.
20:40I just wanted to sleep.
20:43So I tell this Kisakis guy that his bags are probably poisoning the school.
20:48He tells me to shut up.
20:51So I beat the hell out of him and stole his watch.
20:55I just wanted to have some money so I could go to sleep.
21:00And there was an article in the newspaper about the hepatitis.
21:04So I sent that,
21:06and a note about the H.E.s.
21:07that's the environmental board.
21:10The next day, Kisakis sends two guys after me.
21:14Was there any doubt he'd send somebody after you?
21:18I don't think there's a greater disdain for God than suicide.
21:26I couldn't ignore the fact that this guy was poisoning kids.
21:29Corruption is everywhere.
21:33I know.
21:36I'm sorry to dump myself here.
21:38No, no, no, no, no.
21:39This is your sanctuary.
21:40Get some sleep, rest your soul.
21:43And forget about the H.E.S.
21:46The church can put an end to that.
21:48What do you mean?
21:49Well, we'll tell the press about the leaking bags.
21:52Once it's out in the open,
21:54it's got to be corrected.
21:56So what you're saying is we're both committing suicide?
21:58Well, I'm not beating up on local gangsters.
22:01And I'm certainly not jumping off any bridges.
22:04No, but you are threatening a gangster's livelihood.
22:07And they take that a lot more seriously than a beating, believe me.
22:10When I went into the priesthood,
22:12I believed the church's most fundamental duty
22:15was vanquishing evil.
22:18I was a child.
22:21But that notion hasn't left me
22:24in spite of the corrective lectures.
22:29This world of ours.
22:32The church has become a camp for evil's refugees.
22:40Do you ever wonder what God thinks?
22:43I wonder all the time.
22:45I think God is...
22:49decency.
22:54Sounds like Pete.
22:56I want to show you something.
23:01Come with me.
23:06Right this way.
23:30I've always been hung up on the notion of God and decency.
23:36I should have been Baha'i at any rate.
23:39To live in that decency,
23:41one is obligated to alert those who have forgotten it.
23:53My refugees.
23:56Every day, one or two more trickle in.
24:04I resent them
24:05for not allating their fellow citizens
24:08to the indecencies they suffer.
24:10For hiding in this church
24:12and praying to God for some kind of a miracle.
24:15People are always asking God to give them things
24:18when they should be given to God.
24:23The church is a sanctuary for the soul
24:25and not a place for flesh to hide in.
24:30You know, for too long,
24:31I've been hiding here myself.
24:34Now, don't you worry about the HES.
24:37I need to come out of hiding
24:39and you need to soothe your soul
24:41and this is a good place for both of us to begin.
24:44Let's eat.
24:59I knew your brother.
25:04Not well.
25:06We'd see each other at conferences
25:08several times a year.
25:11Do you know he was considered to be
25:13a troublemaker?
25:17We'd talk a lot about
25:19rousing this sleeping giant.
25:24But most of the time,
25:27we'd talk about you.
25:35I can't, but she's getting cold.
26:02Wise guy will continue.
26:16He hasn't used his credit card
26:18in over two weeks.
26:20Credit cards leave a trail.
26:23Couldn't have much cash, though.
26:25He's resourceful.
26:26He'd find cash.
26:26You're not profiling his personality.
26:30No, you're right.
26:32At heart, Vince sees himself
26:33as a turn-of-the-century beat cop
26:35mediating neighborhood disputes.
26:38Family.
26:40That's what he'd go to.
26:45Well, he's cut off from the family.
26:47We should be concentrating
26:49on these two shooters he headed out with.
26:51Local runners.
26:52For who? Running whose action?
26:54Could be any of a dozen guys.
26:56Saul Weiss ran things until 81.
26:58They thought that there was going to be
26:59a war when he died,
27:00but nothing ever materialized.
27:02Well, who kept it quiet?
27:03Nobody knows.
27:05Maybe Harriet.
27:06Harriet? Who's Harriet?
27:07Saul's widow.
27:10How close was Vinnie with his brother?
27:14He was very close.
27:17Oh, the church.
27:21The church.
27:23How many Catholic churches
27:24could there be in Seattle?
27:26Let's go.
27:27Well.
27:28Well.
27:28well,
27:28well,
28:55How many left?
28:59Three.
29:03A few more lectures on the separation of church and state and the papal position on sanctuary is just great.
29:09All right.
29:47Yeah?
29:48That car you're looking for?
29:50Is there still a grand in it?
29:52Yeah.
29:52Where is it?
29:541440 Becker Street.
29:55I told John I got the car.
29:57I got the car.
29:58I got the car.
30:00I got the car.
30:22I got the car.
30:26I got the car.
30:29I got the car.
30:31I got the car.
30:33I got the car.
30:40I got the car.
30:45I got the car.
30:48I got the car.
30:54I got the car.
30:56I got the car.
30:58I got the car.
31:01I got the car.
31:20I got the car.
31:25I got the car.
31:26I haven't seen it.
31:27It's very important that I find him, Father.
31:30Well, good luck.
31:32Please, Father.
31:33Look, we're having a press conference.
31:36I'm a little bit late.
31:38Sorry, I can't help you.
31:39Okay.
32:03It's another blank.
32:11What is it?
32:13What is it?
32:13It's the only priest that didn't try to explain church doctrine to me.
32:46Do you know what I mean?
32:50Yes.
32:56It's just.
32:57I just want to tell you what it is.
32:57If this has been a긋 that you've been forced to try to take,
32:57And you can do it properly.
32:58You know what?
32:59It's so cool you've got to take some money.
32:59You know what I mean?
32:59You know what?
32:59It's so cool.
33:00It's kind of a good thing.
33:00You know what I mean?
33:03You know what I mean?
33:09And you know what the car is like.
33:10how'd the press conference go
33:12they're setting up the cameras now

33:30father pat
33:34father pat
33:35I'm worried about that guy

33:55yes you know him
33:56yeah I know him
33:59I guess he knows me better than I thought he did
34:04and if he comes back
34:08I don't know
34:09well now you can't hide from a friend
34:11a friend will understand
34:15yeah but I did something to him
34:16that was very wrong
34:18I wouldn't blame him
34:18if he didn't want to be my friend anymore
34:20well he wasn't angry
34:22he seemed very concerned to see you
34:26he's right
34:27he's right
34:42Frank
34:45I'm sorry I ran out on you Frank
34:49I know you're mad at me
