All language subtitles for 美女與野獸一15-2

This is where the wealthy
and the powerful rule.

It is her world,

a world apart from mine.

Her name... is Catherine.

From the moment I saw her,
she captured my heart.

With her beauty,

her warmth and her courage.

I knew then, as I know now,

she would change my life...

forever.

He comes from a secret place,
far below the city streets,

hiding his face from strangers,

safe from hate and harm.

He brought me there
to save my life.

And now, wherever I go,
he is with me in spirit.

For we have a bond stronger
than friendship or love.

And although
we cannot be together,

we will never, ever be apart.

Good.

Looks good.

Everything is healed
beautifully.

I can't believe it's a year.

Any pain?

Mm-mm.

Loss of feeling?

Nope.

This one that gave us
so much trouble,

we can remove that now.

Make an appointment
for next week.

I don't know.

Well, when it's convenient.

No, it's not that, I...

You want to
have it removed?

I don't think so.

Cathy, it's an
uncomplicated procedure.

I can do it in the office.

I've gotten used to it.

I'd rather just leave it.

I'm surprised.

Don't you want to put it all
behind you once and for all?

Wipe the slate clean?

No.

It's been a rough year for you.

Why cling to it?

Because it's been the most
wonderful year of my life.

Good work.

When do we go in
to the grand jury?

Oh, not yet.

I'd like more.

Another solid witness, maybe
those missing documents.

Something that decisively
tips the scale in our favor.

Well, I'm working on
one last possibility.

But it's all there,
you can follow the trail.

Taylor's importing
operation,

counterfeit fashions
from Taiwan,

using his wholesale outlets
to market the knock-offs.

The whole thing's a money
laundry for the mob.

Joe, Taylor's being
represented by Evan Brannigan.

We all know
it's going to be war.

We only get one shot.

I want this nailed down
tight before we present it.

So...

we keep hammering.

Moreno's expecting you both at
the mayor's reception tonight.

I suppose you've
got a date.

How about you?

Certainly.

I really thought
we had this case wrapped up.

Hey, kiddo, we didn't
knock his socks off,

but I definitely think we've
got both shoes untied.

Vincent.

Come and take a look at these.

Mouse's diagrams
for his new project.

A ventilation system
for the deepest chambers.

Conceptually brilliant.

But quite impossible to execute.

Still, I suppose evenda Vinci
DiVinci had his off days.

You look as if you're
ready for a journey.

Narcissa's told me
of a wondrous place

she calls the Crystal Cavern.

I don't expect to return
until tomorrow afternoon.

Ah, Narcissa
and her wild tales.

But why this interest
in mythical caverns?

Actually, I'm in
search of a gift.

For Catherine?

Mm-hmm.

It's been a year since
she first came into my life.

I just shudder to think what
the next year may bring.

You know, Vincent,
I used to rue the day

that you two met.

I know.

I never dreamed I'd one day
look upon Catherine

with the fondness that I do.

It's been a time filled with
things we never dreamed of.

It's been... the most
miraculous year of my life.

You know, you two share
something quite extraordinary,

something that touches
the best in all of us.

To hear those words
coming from you...

it must.

You mean, there's still hope,
even for an old man like me.

Always.

Vincent.

You might enjoy this
along the way.

Thank you, Father.

Safe journey, Vincent.

Your date parking
the car, Radcliffe?

Yours must be
in the powder room?

Yeah, they don't know what
they're missing, huh?

You look great
in a tuxedo.

I feel like a head waiter.

I hate parties like this.

Everybody dressed up
to impress people
they don't know,

and don't want to know.

There's Moreno over
there with the mayor.

Better pay your respects.

Oh, uh, did I tell you
how gorgeous you look?

No.

Well, consider it done.

You're blushing.

No kidding.

I'm Erika Salven.

Joe Maxwell.

Erika.

Joe.

Well, it's really
nice to meet you.

The music's nice.

Yeah, yeah, it is
nice, isn't it?

Do you dance, Joe?

You're a gambler.

So, are you with
the mayor's office?

No, I'm an attorney.

You?

I'm a deputy DA.

Joe Maxwell,
crime fighter.

I left my cape
with my other suit.

Are you ever serious?

They don't
pay me enough.

You know, your uh...

Your date is
very beautiful.

Is dancing with me
going to make her jealous?

Date?

Oh, you mean Cathy.

No, we just work together.

She's one of our
top investigators.

And who am I stealing
you away from?

Oh, someone very rich,
very eligible,

and unfortunately,
very boring.

I left him talking
with his broker.

I doubt he knows I'm gone.

Well, he sure
as hell should.

Well, thank you, Joe.

Bye-bye.

Hi, Ted.

Oh, Catherine,
the gang's all here.

I heard you got a conviction
on the Allen case today.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Would you like to dance?

Sure.

Joe's playing the
fast track tonight.

That's Erika Salven.

She's one of the young Turks
at Proctor & Brannigan.

Hasn't he heard about
fraternizing with the enemy?

"How should we be able
to forget those ancient myths

"that are the beginning
of all peoples?

"The myths about dragons,
that at the last moment

"turn into princesses.

"Perhaps all the dragons
of our lives are princesses,

"who are only waiting to see
us, once beautiful and brave.

"Perhaps everything terrible
is, in its deepest being,

"something helpless
that wants help from us.

"So you must not be frightened

"if a sadness rises up
before you,

"larger than any
you have ever seen;

"if a restiveness, like
light and cloud-shadows,

"passes over your hands
and over all you do.

"You must think that something
is happening with you,

"that life has
not forgotten you,

"that it holds you in its hand;

it will not let you fall."

Catherine.

It's been
marvelous, Joe.

I don't want this
evening to end.

Doesn't have to.

Joe!

Later, Radcliffe.

Levinson's looking for you.

Tell me about it.

I was due in his office
a half an hour ago.

Do I look okay?
No.

But you look
like you had fun.

It's not what you're thinking.

No?

No.

I met the most incredible woman
last night.

We left the party
and we walked from the hotel

all the way down
to Battery Park.

Just walked
and talked...

about everything
till the sun came up.

It was great.

She's terrific.

Erika Salven.

You know her?

I know she's
with Proctor and Brannigan.

Do you?

So?

So, they represent
Philip Taylor.

Remember him?

The guy we're grooming
for the grand jury indictment?

There's over a hundred attorneys
at that firm.

She's probably never heard
of Taylor.

Don't you think
you better ask, Joe?

You might be looking
at a conflict of interest.

Oh, now you're telling me
the rules?

Don't worry, Radcliffe.

Too much?

Too much.

I don't even know
Philip Taylor.

Well, he is one
of your firm's major clients.

I know who he is, but
I've never dealt with him.

I'm in the
corporate division.

Look, I had to ask.

The case is very important
to us, and I don't even want

a whisper
of impropriety.

No, Joe, I understand.

Absolutely.

I hate to have things
complicated for us so soon,

but if we're going
to see one another,

everything's got to be
out on the table.

Good policy.

And you thought this
was going to be easy.

I didn't know
what to think.

I still don't.

It's that strange,
you and me?

Well, I don't know.

I guess that's what makes
it kind of wonderful.

Morning, Erika.

Mr. Brannigan.
No, sit, sit.

What's this?

Oh... sweet.

Sounds like love.

So... tell me
about him.

What's the story on Mr. Maxwell?

He's very bright.

Charming.

He grew up in Brooklyn,
poor parents.

His father was a cop.

He graduated
Westfield Law School.

He's very committed, aggressive.

"Aggressive" I know about.

He's pursuing
this Taylor investigation

like some kind of
personal crusade.

Erika, I'm depending on you.

He's a straight shooter.

He believes in what he's doing.

I don't think he can be bought.

But can he be slowed down?

Maybe.

Well, we haven't
a great deal of time.

I'm aware of that.

Maybe we could make
him a job offer.

Would he be interested?

He might be.

When are you seeing him again?

Well, uh, I'm not sure.

The trick to landing a game fish
is in setting the hook.

There's a lot riding on this.

I'll be in touch as soon
as we review the material.

I think we can settle this
without litigation.

I guess I'm early.

I think I'm late.

See if you can move
my 2:30 to 3:30.

Certainly.

And make sure that the
Harrison contracts

are ready
for this afternoon.
I will.

This is quite a layout.

Oh, one of the
perks of being an
obsessive-compulsive.

I know something
about that.

Although lately,
I've been trying

to get a little
balance in my life.

With me?

That strikes you funny?

If I'm the balance, lady,
we're in big trouble.

What's on your mind?

I don't want to go back to work.

Okay.

We'll stay here
all afternoon.

What?

Yeah.

Let's... call
the office.

Tell them you won't be
back this afternoon.

I'll go first.

No, I-I can't,
I can't do that.

I got all kinds
of work to do.

I've got to go back.

Okay.

I could just see
Levinson's face.

You've worked
there a long time.

Mm.

Don't you ever
get tired of it?

Right now,
it's the only game in town.

Don't be so sure.

What do you mean?

Well, maybe I shouldn't
be telling you this,

but... the recruiters in the
firm have been looking at you.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

I don't know if we should
be talking about this.

Fine.

I just wanted to let you know
that you have other options.

You're not stuck
at the DA's Office.

And I'm sure we're
not the only firm

that's interested in you.

An attorney with your
talents has lots of choices.

That deposition puts Taylor
in a box and slams the lid.

I think we got him.

I haven't gotten to it yet.

You haven't?

I'm sorry, Cathy, I
got a lot on my mind.

This has been
top priority for months.

What else
is going on?

I'll read the deposition
tonight, okay?

Read it now.

All right, fine,
I'll read it now.

It's just I got
a lot going on, you know?

Personal stuff.

I'm happy that
you're happy.

It's great to
be in love.

It's not that simple.

Well, it never is,

but you can't just
drop everything else.

What are you trying to say?

I'm... I'm trying to say
that ever since you got involved

with Erika,
something's happened to you.

Something's happened
to your edge.

Are you accusing me of
backing off the Taylor case?

I am accusing you of acting
like a moonstruck teenager

who won't do his homework.

Now, you let me know when
you come back to earth.

We have work to do.

Narcissa and her wild tales.

Yeah, yeah.

You're getting too old, Joe.

Sometimes I feel
that way, Franklin.

Guess I'll be, uh,
getting back to work.

Yeah, I'll see
you later.

Can we talk?

Sure.

If I was out of
line, I'm sorry.

Don't be.

You were right.

Things are getting
pretty mixed up.

Looks like Proctor
and Brannigan's

going to offer me a job.

What?

I don't know what to say.

I've been grinding away here
for five years

waiting for a shot
like this.

And they're really going
to make you an offer?

Erika says it's coming.

And is this
what you want?

Oh, yeah.

Cathy...

I busted my butt
putting myself

through Westfield Law
School at night.

Only the big firms don't
recruit from Westfield.

So I came to the DA's Office
to make a name for myself,

and I have.

And somebody's interested.

Well, then,
I'm happy for you, Joe.

Thank you.

You want some coffee?

Uh-uh.

Ooh.

How does this affect
the Taylor investigation?

Well, I'm pulling
out of it.

No.

It's the only
thing to do.

No, Joe.

You've worked too hard.

Cathy, don't you
see? I have to.

There'd be a
conflict of interest.

Joe, you pull out now
and we lose all our momentum.

If they care about you,

if they're really
interested in you,

they'll wait until
after the case is resolved.

That could take
months or longer.

I'm not sure
if I want to wait.

Well...

this gives Brannigan
everything he wants.

He's neutralized you...

and he gets
more time.

A delay.

They serve coffee to their
clients in china cups.

You believe that?

They've got the top
two floors of the
Trumaine building,

the top two floors,
and it's quiet.

Is that what it's about, Joe?

A big office and china cups?

Hey, I don't want to be sucking
stale dregs

out of a Styrofoam cup
when I'm 50.

Joe.

I hope you know
that I care about you

and I only want what is best.

But this just doesn't
feel like you.

Why not?

Because you're
worth more than this.

Yeah?

Yeah. Put her on.

Hi, Erika.

Okay, I guess.

9:00.

Yeah, me, too.

I have tickets for the ballet
tomorrow night.

ABT. Do you want to go?

Ballet?

I don't know.

Give it a try.

Erika, there's a problem,

and we have to talk
about it.

What kind of problem?

Us seeing each other
with the Taylor case pending.

I've given it a hard look,
and there are things about it

that just don't feel
right to me.

Joe, I don't understand.

Joe, tell me
what's on your mind.

We promised
to do that.

I don't think
we should see each other

until after the investigation
is resolved.

Joe, I admire your integrity.

That's part of what
makes you so attractive,

but I really think

you're overreacting here.

No, I don't think so.

I'm in a completely different
division.

I have nothing to do
with Philip Taylor

or any of the lawyers
who represent him.

I don't see any conflict.

Your firm is recruiting me.

The offer
wasn't officially made.

But even if I think
the firm is recruiting me,

there is a conflict.

Joe, you're splitting hairs.

I really think you're making
a big deal out of nothing.

It is a big deal.

This is a case
we've worked hard on.

I'm sorry, Erika.

Believe me, this took a lot
of soul searching.

Truthfully...

I think you'd
better ask yourself

if this isn't an excuse
for something else.

Like what?

Like your fear
of being involved with me.

Erika, believe me, I want
to have a relationship with you.

Intimacy is scary.

Just make sure
you're not using

these ethical
considerations

as an excuse to chicken
out of a relationship.

Erika, wait.

Here, keep the change.

Erika.

Keep your hands
in plain sight

and step out
of the vehicle.

Whoa, whoa, take it easy.

I'm with the DA's Office.

Let's go.

Turn around, put your
hands against the car.

This is ridiculous.

Oh, sorry,
Mr. Maxwell,

but your car matches the
description we just got

on a two-eleven
suspect vehicle.

It's all right, no problem.

Honest mistake.
Okay.

Found it on the floorboard.

Oh, come on.

You got to be kidding me.

Mr. Maxwell,
you're under arrest

for the possession
of narcotics.

You have the right
to remain silent.

If you give up the right,
anything you say

can and will be held
against you in a court of law.

You have the right to speak
with an attorney

and to have an attorney
present during questioning.

This whole thing is a setup!

You know that!
Of course I do!

You think I
want to do this?

Joe's a friend, but he has
to stay on the sidelines

until we can get
it cleared up.

Procedure dictates...

Joe deserves
better than procedure.

I want to talk to Moreno.

I've been talking
to him all morning.

He wants you on this.

Everything else goes on the back
burner till Joe is cleared.

I don't want any.

Joe, it's Cathy.

Well, this is a real
red-letter day, huh?

I finally got my picture
in the paper.

I got a copy
of the police report

and talked
to the arresting officers.

There's no way this is
ever going to stick.

The phone tip was bogus.

There was no robbery,
no getaway car,

so the search was illegal
from the get-go.

The evidence
will be suppressed

and we'll have
the charges dropped

by the end of the day.

The damage is
done, kiddo.

The headline-- that's
what people remember.

I'll just be
another damn rat

who beat the system
on a technicality.

Damn her!

You're going to come
through this, Joe.

Moreno will never
abandon you.

You're way too valuable.

Yeah, but I'll be
shuffling papers,

not trying cases.

Lawyers in mud-splattered suits

don't fare too well
with juries, Cathy.

Stop it-- you're jumping
to conclusions.

We're going to fight this thing.

Hey, will you save
the pep talk?!

I am out to sea in a cardboard
boat, and we both know it.

She played me
like a bass fiddle.

Are you sure it was Erika?

Maybe Brannigan
paid someone...

No. It was Erika.

Okay.

Cathy.

Thanks.

But forget about it.

You'll never be able
to prove anything.

Trust me on this one, Joe.

Yes?

Yes, of course.

Show her in.

Would you hold
my calls, please.

Yes, ma'am.

Miss Chandler.

I want you to know
that I don't believe

a word of these
charges against Joe.

And if there's anything
I can do...

Let's not waste
each other's time.

You had one purpose
for getting involved

with Joe, and that was to kill
the Taylor investigation.

You seduced him,

you bribed him with the offer
of a job here,

and when that failed,

you set him up for a drug bust
to discredit him.

That's outrageous.

You will never get
out of this intact, Erika.

You're the one loose end
in this,

and Philip Taylor and his people
hate loose ends.

I will not stand here
and listen to this.

There must be
some decency in you,

or Joe could never have fallen
in love with you.

Is it that easy to just
throw him away?

I'd like you to leave now.

I don't know what you're
getting from this,

but it will never be enough.

Search your heart, Erika.

And if you care about Joe,
call me.

Vincent.

Where have you been?

Gone yesterday,
gone the day before.

I've been to
a magical place, Mouse,

a crystal cavern.

Was it neat?

It was neat.

For you.

This one is for Catherine,

to be worn around her neck.

Sparks and
fire inside.

Beautiful.

Perhaps you can help.

Me?

Help make?

Okay, good, okay, fine!

Gold wire,
make a thingy,

put a chain through,

polish it up.

No problem.

For Catherine.

For Catherine.

What's it like,
Vincent...

to have a love?

People have been searching
for the words for centuries.

I think for each person

it must be something
very different.

For me...

it was the beginning
of a new life...

...and the end of my aloneness.

I understand you had a visitor

from the District
Attorney's Office.

Yes, Catherine Chandler.

She's one of Joe Maxwell's

investigators.
Yes.

And she suspects
your involvement.

She has no proof.
No.

What did you tell her?

Nothing.
I denied any involvement.

You are going to have
to hang tough now.

You realize that.

There was no need
to plant drugs in his car.

Did you have to destroy him?

You seem to be forgetting
what we set out to do.

I hope you haven't
confused your loyalties.

That could be dangerous.

Mr. Brannigan, I swear to you...

There's no room in this
for weakness.

Hello?

- Catherine Chandler?
- It's Erika Salven.

I think we should talk.

Uh, well, all right, Erika.
Can you meet me tonight?

I'm still at the office.

Maybe I'm being paranoid,

but I think there's someone
waiting for me.

Oh, well,
have you called the police?

No, I don't think
that would be a good idea.

I'd like to talk to you first.

All right. Lock your door

and don't open it
for anyone but me.

Thank you.

I'm on my way.

The building's
closed, Miss.

I'm with the
District Attorney's Office.

I'm meeting Erika Salven.

She's expecting me.

Who's she with?
Proctor & Brannigan.

Just a minute, please.

Ms. Salven? This
is lobby security.

There's a Ms.
Chandler here

from the DA's
Office to see you.

Fine. Thank you.

You can go on up.

Who is it?

It's Catherine.

Thank you for coming.

I was so frightened.

I thought someone was

following me when
I tried to leave.

I didn't see anyone out there.

I didn't know anything
about the drugs...

please believe that.

I never thought it
would go this far.

Okay.

Why don't you
tell me what happened.

Brannigan was afraid that Philip
Taylor would be indicted.

He wanted some information
on Joe, on the case.

He asked for my help.

Maybe I could
slow things down.

Do you know
who planted the drugs?

Brannigan has
an investigator

who handles all of his
confidential matters.

His name's Cassut.

He's probably
mixed up in this.

After you left, I confronted
Brannigan about the drugs.

And he made some veiled threats.

He must be afraid
I'll talk.

I think we better
get out of here.

They're coming down.

Both of them. First car.

Got them.

Car's empty.

Damn. They're all locked.

My God,

we're trapped,
we're never...
Shh.

Take your shoes off.
We have to outrun them.

Are you all right?
My ankle.

We have to keep going.

Oh, thank God.

You've got to help us.

No problem.

Girls.

Well?

Well, we've got a date
with the grand jury

two weeks from today.

And when we take
Taylor to trial,

I'll carry the ball.

All right!

And how about everything else?
Are you okay?

I am now.

I owe you, Cathy.

You stuck by me.

I, uh...

I don't know what to say.

Seeing you at a loss
for words is enough.

You know,

I'm going frame this.

Hang it up next
to my Westfield Law degree.

Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm. No problem.

Uh, excuse me.

Yeah, I hope we see...
Okay.

What can I say to you?

You being here says something.

I...

...got lost, Joe.

I don't know if you can
understand that.

After all this is over,
behind us, maybe...

Maybe.

It was a year ago... tonight.

How remarkable you are,

remembering such a dark moment
with dancing light.

It's a time for celebration.

I found hope again
that night.

I found you.

I have something for you.

I wanted to give you
something from my world,

something for you to carry
with you,

a keepsake.

Vincent, it's beautiful.

It comes from our
deepest chamber.

Reminds me of a
piece of eternity.

I'll cherish it.

I wanted you to have a part
of me to hold close.

When I was little,
I was terrified of the dark.

And I used to have an awful time
falling asleep.

My mother gave me
this rose.

And she told me that
whenever I got frightened

to hold the rose
and to think of her.

And to know that
wherever she was,

she was thinking of me.

It helped me to go to sleep.

Until you came
into my life, Vincent,

I'd forgotten
how it felt to know

that there is someone
thinking of me.

Someone who knows who I am.

Someone that I'm connected to.

Every moment
since that night,

I'm reminded
of what a gift life is.
