00:00No place to hide when his devilish eyes start smilin', start smilin'.
00:16These kind of nights lend a subtle knot to cry in.
00:31Yeah, Winston was a stone-cold killer.
00:34Useful weapon in my arsenal, but totally replaceable.
00:37Same goes for his pal G.O.
00:39It was risky, not letting me in on your plans, but it was a smart plague start to finish.
00:57Are you listening to me? I'm trying to pay you a compliment.
01:04You did a good job.
01:06Smart.
01:07Patient.
01:10You could use someone like you on my payroll.
01:12I'm not a fan of your retirement plan.
01:16You got some milk.
01:20You'll get to kill someday.
01:31Pardon to the police chief tomorrow.
01:33Yeah.
01:34You're on the payroll too?
01:36Why is he running raids on your booty shipments?
01:39It's like you.
01:40The devil you know.
01:55The devil you know.
02:10I thought we were celebrating.
02:11Killing people?
02:12A couple of rats.
02:13They tried to put you in a hole.
02:16Really kept you out of it.
02:18I'll drink to that.
02:20Any regrets on the fact you almost killed me for nothing tonight?
02:23Yeah, I don't dwell.
02:24Maybe you should start.
02:26Well, it's getting late.
02:28No, no, no chance.
02:30You and me are drinking tonight.
02:32Be a dog that grabs a bottle at the yellow spot.
02:34Enjoy the spot whiskey.
02:36We're going open much.
02:56Please assure him that I will have Mr. Riley return his call as soon as he's in.
03:00Yes.
03:01I'll be sure to add that to your previous messages.
03:04Uh huh.
03:07Finger again?
03:08Uh huh.
03:09Does he know which Ben Riley he's calling?
03:14God dammit.
03:19It's God damn God.
03:22Jesus Christ.
03:26Wow.
03:28I...
03:28Okay.
03:36He already wrote about soberman, but I admire the man's constitution.
03:40He's been drank.
03:42I can't escape him.
03:43I'm not even in Harlem, so I'm going to head up town and see if I can make a business.
03:46Scramble.
03:48Excuse me?
03:48I need scrambled eggs and sausages and a biscuit.
03:55If we're dreaming, why don't you add gravy to that, Mr. Moneybanks?
04:02Holy shit.
04:03I'm not even going to ask.
04:05It's probably wise.
04:06Please, I need food.
04:08After you talk to the mayor.
04:10I'm going to head out and look for Lonnie.
04:12Let me know how it goes and...
04:15Hold him!
04:20Oh my.
04:23That would be you.
04:27No, no.
04:31No, no, no, no.
04:48I'm not going to ask.
04:49I'm not going to have Reed.
04:50No, no, no, no.
04:51I'm not going to have t he.
05:14Sleep well, sunshine.
05:15Like a kitten.
05:17Why do you ask?
05:18A guy can't inquire after his favourite gal.
05:26Through days, I was up all night.
05:28Too much adrenaline from yesterday.
05:32Maybe I wasn't the only one.
05:34What did you put through the wall?
05:36My fist, my head, lust of Caesar.
05:38What does it matter?
05:45I'm probably catching a cold.
05:47Lose your voice?
05:49Miss a show?
05:50I haven't missed a show in seven years.
05:53You almost missed one last night though, didn't you?
05:56If you have something to say, say it.
05:58It's too early for subtext.
06:00Text, then.
06:04Winston was the rat.
06:06But that doesn't answer what you were doing at the train station.
06:17Why don't you ask Winston?
06:18I can't.
06:19And why is that?
06:20Because I put a bullet in his chest.
06:22And if the PI had told you I was the rat?
06:24I'd have put a bullet in you.
06:25No.
06:27Well, there's your answer.
06:31That's not an answer.
06:33And it's not the truth.
06:37The truth is I was terrified.
06:39Not because I was guilty, but because you were unhinged.
06:42Looking to lash out and feel like you're still invulnerable.
06:46There you go.
06:47Now you're talking.
06:49I was really with you at the station.
06:51He wasn't with me.
06:53He was watching me.
06:55For you.
06:56He must have figured out Winston was the rat and thought I was in on it because I was running.
07:01He didn't know I had nothing to do with it until Winston tried to train me.
07:09Good.
07:13Well, he was smart not to trust anyone.
07:15He was smart not to play favorites.
07:17If he's so smart, then why don't you hire him?
07:20We tried.
07:21He was smart enough to say no.
07:25I'm glad you're back.
07:26No, please.
07:27I'd rather be.
07:30That's my girl.
07:37See? There you go.
07:38I knew you could do it.
07:43You don't work for the girls.
07:45That's you all right.
07:46I'm aware. Focus.
07:48How am I supposed to focus on what we desk?
07:50Trust me, I've been asking that same question for three days now.
07:54Listen, I don't know how many times I have to tell you.
07:57I am so sorry.
07:59Uh, yes, Riley Investigations, my ask is calling.
08:03Hi, Miss Hardy.

12:20case of anchovies

12:23yeah
12:23my man, Steven
12:24he's gathering up
12:26all the anchovies
12:26and cans
12:27he don't even like the anchovies
12:31what is this place?
12:33my old life
12:36it's where I used to perform
12:37before Silvermane found me
12:40I used to sing for pennies
12:41I could barely afford
12:43to put food in my stomach
12:44but
12:45I loved it
12:48one night
12:49Silvermane took me more money
12:50than I'd ever seen in my life
12:51next day
12:52he made a proposal
12:53I bought a new club
12:55said I'd have everything
12:56I could ever want
12:57and he gave it to me
12:58well, you're courtesy of strings
13:00they were doing at first
13:02but over the years
13:03they got thick as rope
13:06no
13:07they were never like that
13:09the only thing Silvermane
13:10gets off on
13:11is power
13:12as long as he can control
13:13what I wear
13:14what I do
13:16how I'm around
13:32there was a man once
13:35Thomas
13:36started coming to the club
13:38night after night
13:39and
13:40eventually
13:41he wore me down
13:44he was a dentist
13:45if you can believe it
13:47flexigentist, huh?
13:49yeah, I heard about those guys
13:50no, but
13:52he was kind
13:53and I guess
13:54for me
13:56kindness was something new
14:00after about a year
14:01he surprised me
14:03with a ring
14:04and
14:04I surprised him
14:06by saying yes
14:10after Thomas
14:11suddenly stopped
14:12coming by
14:13I thought
14:14maybe I had done
14:15something wrong
14:23could have just scared him off
14:25but Silvermane had him killed
14:28wanted to make sure
14:29I'd never made the same mistake again
14:32but if he did
14:33with Flint
14:35I suppose he's kind too
14:36when he isn't busting heads
14:38he is, in fact
14:40he's got
14:40more honor
14:41and loyalty
14:42than anyone I know
14:44so I thought
14:45it would give us both
14:45a second chance
14:48and to do it
14:49you needed Silvermane
14:50out of the picture
14:51I was so dumb
14:52to think that maybe
14:53I could have it all
14:58tell me about
15:00Addison
15:00Flint mentioned him
15:03they were war buddies
15:05he was worried about him
15:06said Jimmy lost his job
15:08thought he'd been burning
15:09things for money
15:10mostly insurance games
15:12with the money
15:13I was offering
15:14it wasn't hard
15:15to convince him
15:16to kill Silvermane
15:17but Addison
15:19watched the job
15:19and let Silvermane
15:21get away
15:21oh
15:23and then that
15:24other freak
15:26what's he called
15:27spider
15:29run your second try
15:31and here we are
15:38so if there ain't chicken
15:40and there ain't noodles
15:41then it ain't chicken noodle soup

16:07at the city
16:07I guess
16:07why
16:10he'll see this
16:13far
16:13to the city
16:14I think
16:18he insisted that
16:42I know, but listen, the story they printed wasn't what I gave them.
16:46Now I came in to make things right.
16:48You expect me to believe that?
16:49Brother, let me help you.
16:51At least let's go somewhere more comfortable and talk.
16:54The Alcove, 79.
16:56I know where the Alcove is.
16:57Everybody knows where the Alcove is.
17:00Evening, Miss Hardy.
17:01Evening.
17:02How about those monster freaks, huh?
17:04What a mess.
17:05The spider's going to show back up.
17:07I doubt it.
17:08I mean, the guy could barely hack it.
17:09Maybe just a ride, if you don't mind.
17:12All right.
17:13Something, pal.
17:21I don't think I can be alone tonight.
17:29Hey, do you mind going back downtown?
17:32Yeah, sure thing, pal.
17:43Look who finally showed up.
17:45You found the police, Chief.
17:48Better.
17:51My boy.
17:53Where have you been?
17:54Been looking all over the city for you.
17:56Had the wheel off for a minute.
17:58Yeah, you did.
18:00You ran all the papers after that number you didn't know as cops.
18:05Where did all that come from, son?
18:08Don't worry about it.
18:09Don't just slide your back.
18:11You hear we had a traitor in our midst.
18:15You never did like Winston, did you?
18:18Winston?
18:19You told him it was someone else.
18:21Me too.
18:23That's why you never really trust anyone.
18:26Even the staunchest of alloys.
18:28Money, power, they could corrupt anybody.
18:35You are, please.
18:42It's okay.
18:45You're welcome here, no matter what.
18:47You've always been loyal.
18:50I cut both ways, Flint.
18:52You watch my back, and I'll watch yours.
18:55I've got to warn you, though.
18:56We've got a fight coming.
18:59Are you ready for that?
19:00I'm ready.
19:02Whatever you need, I'm ready.
19:05Good.
19:07Time to show the mayor what he's up against.
19:16Should we talk about the powers?
19:21When you got them?
19:27Well, just where you from?
19:29You a Harlem kid?
19:30When you are out against.
19:48I'll hear you.
19:49You're welcome, sir.
19:49Have a while.
19:54Bill, Bill, how are you, sir?
19:57How are you, sir?
20:07You a card player?
20:11Oh, so you're good, huh?
20:29It's not much.
20:31You don't have to do that.
20:34Do why?
20:35Be humble.
20:42Do you have anything to drink?
20:43Sure.
20:44How about some music?
20:55It's only one glass.
20:57I haven't had many guests.
21:02Oh, well, here's another, but it's huge.
21:05I'll just use the used glass.
21:22You can see it make yourself comfortable.
21:27So here we are?
21:28Here we are.
21:31Your turn.
21:33Tell me why.
21:36Right.
21:37My turn.
21:38My turn.
21:43There was this girl, this smart, fun girl.
21:50You want to tell me about her?
21:56Her name was Ruby and we were happy.
22:16I did a job.
22:17No big deal.
22:18Deadbeat husband.
22:20But he ended up doing five years.
22:22Hard time.
22:23And he got through the stint.
22:24Thinking about one thing.
22:27Revenge.
22:30Still don't know how, but he knew I was close to Ruby.
22:34And I killed her.
22:38I was going to take her to dinner on that night.
22:45The fact is we never made it to dinner because I was too busy getting drunk in a bar across
22:53town to know she was in danger.
22:55And I got there too late.
23:14He killed her to make me suffer.
23:17He killed her.
23:18But I'm the reason she's dead.
23:26If Ruby had never met me, she'd still be alive.
23:31So...
23:34You saved me to make up for not saving her.
23:36Nothing can make up for that.
23:38I did it so I wouldn't feel any worse.
23:44So how do you feel?
23:45How do I feel?
23:48Uh...
23:51Alone?
23:57Well...
23:59Maybe we can be all together.
24:12So sorry.
24:13I know.
24:16One in.
24:17Who's each?
24:22Helen.
24:24My mom's.
24:26You two must be close.
24:28What about the rest of your family?
24:33Just my mom.
24:36After the war.
24:38I wasn't so easy to be around.
24:42Yeah, it's hard going back to normal life.
24:44I don't think my brother served.
24:46Yeah, both of mine served too.
24:48In fact, the oldest was at POW.
24:50W.
24:51Yeah.
24:54You're right.
24:56Emily.
24:58Yeah, it took him a long time to get his head right after that.
25:05The drummer's coming too.
25:17Shit.
25:19Sorry.
25:23They did something to you all, didn't they?
25:32I hear him.
25:45Silvermay! Good to see you.
25:47Remember my wife.
25:48Honey, why don't you and Phyllis go powder your nose?
25:52Eat shit, Albert. Come on, Phyllis.
25:57Missed you at lunch today Chief. Just been saving room for dinner.
26:02How you been? You look good. You in good health?
26:06Strong as ever my friend. How about you?
26:10Eh, you know the blood pressure's a bit high. The election, you know.
26:14I do know. Seems I'm the one who paid to put you in that seat.
26:17Well, I'm about to be voted out of it.
26:20Whose fault is that?
26:21About the whole list or just the headlines?
26:23Let's just put it down to destiny.
26:25And what? You just move on to the next guy and expect me to go quietly?
26:30Only those who would risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.
26:36In that case, I'd be happy to show you too far.
26:38I'll just let you fellas talk.
26:40Sit down.
26:42Is this about me calling for an end to prohibition?
26:45Because I'm simply giving the people what they want.
26:48Do you think you're special, Morris?
26:50Every four years, I decide who sits in that chair.
26:53This time it's going to be Hudson. Next time, some other asshole.
26:59Well, apparently this particular asshole still has some cards left to play.
27:02Why do you think I'm the one breaking bread with the Chief of Police?
27:05Fellas, I'm sure we can reach some kind of-
27:08You've had a good run. Had to end sometime.
27:12There was no more.
27:14Is he right about to?
27:16Oh, how silly of me.
27:19I haven't introduced my associate.
27:21Flint, say hello to the Mayor.
27:32it's okay everybody don't worry we're all friends here it's okay
27:39i'm not bagging down

28:19santorini it's a greek island with black sand beaches and
28:24great little towns with nothing to do but eat and drink and watch the sunset
