Original subtitles

Pop, you're gonna cut your fingers off.

Please, don't do anything crazy.

I became a husband, I became a father, I became a businessman.

I ran out of crazy things to do.

Go on, I'll be okay.

You sure?

Go on, go on.

Lieutenant Kojak, please.

Tell him it's Charlie Gerson. Hey, Charlie, it's me, Bob. Oh, hello, Bobby.

You like the suit?

Yeah, it's all right. The ladies like it. Charlie.

Lieutenant, line two, Charlie Gerson.

What do you got in the house, Tooth? Theo, I... I want to swear out a warrant

against Hennessy.

Wait a minute, Charlie.

Who's up?

Hiya, Lieutenant.

Uh, you need a new suit? Stop out.

You and Russo get down to Charlie Gerson's and bring him in.

Charlie, you stay there, okay? I'm sending Stavros.

Charlie, I think you're nuts.

Theo, I don't need an escort.

Hey, Charlie, they know we're looking into their activities, okay?

Well, let them know.

Charlie, I give protection to people I don't like.

Now let me do it for a buddy, okay?

here, Hennessy. I don't want any trouble, Charlie.

Just payment. I paid you. I paid you ten times over. Late, Charlie. You're

always late.

You know you have to pay double the interest if you don't make your payments

time.

You don't want anything to happen to all those new orders over there, now, do

you?

He owed them. He was paying them. They didn't have to shoot him.

It happened just before I got here, Lieutenant.

Hey, Coach.

Hey,

Terry.

Lieutenant,

is there anybody you want to speak to before we wrap this?

Maybe the kid was right.

Bees, earth.

Take one out, ten more take their place, just like weeds.

Tenant, uh, a worker.

It's fine, look, uh, get the names and addresses of everybody here, okay?

And give a statement to the officers.

You can quote me. Assistant D .A. Turner. We have the killer and we're

throw the book at him. And if you want to... Ah, excuse me. Theo.

Look what I'd like to do.

Be careful sometime, okay? And cover ourselves at every turn.

That's the son of Frank Hennessy. You know how big he is.

That animal can pull strings from here to Washington. Good.

Now, come on. Smile, will you, Theo? We'll hang Hennessy to get him.

Joe, you all right? They worked me over, Pop.

Whoa! He hit his head when he was pulled out of a cab he stole while he was

trying to escape. Now, you got that straight now?

Who's the cop on this?

He's called the Cousier.

Go, Jack.

If you can't get me one way, try another.

The land of opportunity, Pop.

You know, everybody's got to get ahead, you slime.

Who's the DA?

The name is Turner.

Why hasn't bail been set yet?

Here, just put in the request.

$250 ,000.

It's crazy. Murder won, Mr. Hennethy. Murder won.

Hey.

I said don't rush it. You know, we can only hold him for 72 hours.

Grand theft auto assault and like that. Just don't press the murder charge.

What do you need, a videotape?

Look, if ballistics doesn't tie the bullet in Charlie Gerson to that gun, I

eat it, Theo.

Look, I know you're taking this personally, but I don't want you to

I will not let you down. Good.

Just stall. I need more time to build a better case.

Theo, you've got statements from nine witnesses.

They heard the shot. They saw him run.

Yeah, but they're vague and afraid.

Oh, come on now. The traffic cop swears that he was holding the gun. We have the

gun. Yeah, but we don't have a witness who saw it happen.

Now, we need more time to build a better case, and besides that...

I'm working on Charlie Gerson's fence to have them open up.

Okay. Do whatever you want to. Remember, though, everything you get here on out

is just icing on the cake, Theo. Now, I gotta go.

I am trying an arson case against the battery of defense attorneys.

Any one of whom earns twice what you, I, and Kojak combined take home.

Hi, Theo.

You look like a leftover dinner.

So when I say that I want Crocker and Saperstein available to testify...

I don't want to hear that you can't spare them.

Marcos, you never gave me the chance.

We're on the same team.

Hey, Marcos.

I'm going to need a wiretap of Frank Hennessy, the long shark.

A wiretap?

You've got to be joshing. That is too much paperwork. What about teamwork?

What team?

What does he ask?

Help in bringing criminals to justice?

Now, Marcos, you're an assistant DA.

You just said all of us combined don't make what one high -priced defense

attorney makes, right?

All right, all right. So even lady DAs have big mouths.

Can it work for Turner? I'll turn this up to his next repair on the Hennessy

case. Okay, but I'm going to need probable cause to order a wiretap.

Now, Gerson told me that Joe Hennessy called that number several times from

office. But Gerson is dead.

Don't you believe Theo?

We're looking for probable cause.

One Greek trusting another isn't enough.

Hennessy told Gerson.

That he could call that number any time if he needed money.

That's probable cause.

I hope we can get this together.

A

hand.

That's all I have to give you, a hand. Not what kind.

I'll take a leg.

At least I get to walk on it.

Dave, why don't you be good like Louie?

Louie gave up.

Look at him.

A model of despair.

Hello,

fellas. Do you need a fourth?

You're in luck. I just finished a new fall line of sport jackets.

Yeah, well, I didn't come for a sport jacket, Al.

You always come to Daphina for a sport jacket. Not this time.

This time I came to save lives.

Look at the faces. Surprise, surprise.

Now, how is Theo going to save our lives? What's he going to do, help us

the street?

Well, I'm going to tell you I'm going to save your lives.

You're going to testify that you're into Hennessy for illegal rates.

And that way you won't be busting your heads and busting your hands and like

that. And you won't have to be paying these usurious blood money rates.

I'm into Hennessy?

Yeah.

What did Charlie say?

Me deal with that killer?

You think I'm out of my mind?

You think I'm some kind of nut?

I know you are.

You all do.

It's a rumor.

Who believes rumors?

It's the way it was, right? Four hands.

Charlie, you know those friends you've been playing poker with all these years?

Well, they won't lift a finger to catch the killer who blew you away, Charlie.

Hennessy was indicted.

He goes on trial for murder. That's worse than Shylocking. Case is thin.

And we might lose him.

That's why I need a reason to delay so we can hold on to him.

Charlie, you'll have to wait a little while before you can rest in your grave.

You see your friends?

They're still playing poker for their lives.

And Charlie, they're all bluffing.

Lieutenant.

Hi, Jack Perry. You going to the Hennessy grand jury? Yes.

Quick. Well, I think so, too. Lieutenant thinks he's ready, and I can't slow him

down. What do you have?

Well, we have the gun that Hennessy threw away, plus witnesses of some run.

Eyewitnesses? No.

You want me to do something?

Well, I'd appreciate it.

Just let me know. Thank you.

I just couldn't budge any of Gerson's friends. We don't need him. I just got

indictment. I feel like I'm on a grease rail.

He's a known felon, Theo.

You can't introduce that.

I don't have to.

Look, the press is playing this up. Any potential jury is going to be out for

Hennessy's blood.

Listen to this. Now, good idea.

We won't need it, but how about Judge Miller?

Can't pick your own judge, either. I can request him.

Tough, hard, law and order Miller. Good idea.

I told you what I think.

Oh, there he is. Judge Miller!

I take it the indictment came through.

Uh, the tenant wants Judge Miller to see it.

Lieutenant, I realize you knew the victim.

Perhaps you're being overly concerned.

Hey, look, Walter.

You know, I don't want to wait until the case is blown before someone comes up

to me and says, Kojak, you were right.

You ask if you can do something, well, you can't.

Talk to Turner.

I'll do better than that.

Uh, get me Judge Miller.

Turner has stumbled a few times, rather unexplainably.

Well, let's try.

Thanks, Walter.

Judge Berry.

Hello, Walter.

What case do you want me to get you off now?

This isn't one of mine.

It's the Hennessy case.

Oh, the Hennessy case.

I understand the indictment just came through, and I promised Lieutenant Kojak

I'd talk to you about a delay.

Walter, if you want me to push Turner for a delay, I will certainly consider

Not at all.

I promised I'd call you, that's all.

In the event Kojak asks, I did.

Kojak's a bit of a worrier.

I wouldn't let it concern me for a minute.

Turner knows his business, and the public's in good hands.

Bum is up to something.

He knows I'm next in line for the top job.

He wants it so bad, I can feel his breath on my neck.

You guys playing by the rules?

Yes, sir. Every two minutes, I shut it off for five seconds. If it's personal,

shut it off altogether.

I hate these New York basements.

They're so cold, and they're so damp, and they're so lonely.

What were you guys staying here for?

Because you guys born on the Grand Concourse are more dedicated than I am.

By this afternoon, you'll be out of there, okay?

It's all been arranged.

Are you sure it's fixed? Go on.

Go back to the court and enjoy yourself.

I hope I didn't spoil things for you by telling you how it turns out.

We got him now, Lieutenant.

And do you see the man who threw the gun away in this room?

Over there.

Excuse me, Your Honor.

Word is out that Hennessey has blown off his mouth that he's got this trial

arranged. How could he? We just picked the jury.

What are you asking me?

What are you asking me for? I'm just telling you what I heard.

Mr. Turner, any time you're ready to continue.

Sorry, Your Honor.

Your witness, I'd just like to offer the gun previously marked People's Exhibit

1 for identification.

I object, Your Honor. There's no foundation for this.

Prosecution hasn't established whose gun it is.

Your Honor, Officer Logan just did that.

Your Honor, could we have a voir dire on this?

Send the jury out.

Counsel is offering a gun.

What gun?

Who owns it? Where's it been?

Counselor, you've got your voir dire.

Officer Logan?

Did you mark in any way the gun you took out of the garbage pail?

No, sir.

Did anyone write down the serial number?

There was no time.

Now, were you all chasing the defendant?

Yes. Exactly where was the gun while the chase was going on?

In the police car, on the seat where I put it. And the car was locked?

What, when you left to apprehend the defendant?

No, sir.

But as soon as we came back with Hennessy in handcuffs, the sector car

locked it in the glove compartment.

From that moment to this, it's been in custody.

I see.

Thank you very much, officer.

Your Honor, we still don't know what gun it is. It was left unattended on the

car seat, so the chain of custody was clearly broken.

Now, this is no reflection on you, officer. You're in traffic. This is

but, uh...

Anything more for me?

No, sir.

I see.

No corroborating eyewitness?

No, sir.

No eyewitness.

And you can establish no direct tie between the defendant and the

murder weapon?

What have we?

A man running from a loud noise?

Your Honor, I move for dismissal. Your Honor, I would like a recess.

Mr. Turner, you should have asked for more time before the trial began.

I have no alternative but to instruct the jury to grant defendant's motion for

dismissal. I just feel... Mr. Turner, it's already been said.

Bailiff, send the jury back in.

What do you call this?

Jerry what? No matter how you say it, my father is dead.

I'll never see him again, and you won't be able to get any more suits from him.

And the animal who shot him to death is going to walk out of here?

How could you let something like this happen? I'm very sorry.

He's sorry, too.

I don't know what to say.

Just say you're a dumb fake.

Theo. Come on with you, Frank.

He's so hungry for conviction, he'll let a killer go free. Theo, you're a

blundering idiot.

Theo, we don't have to go through all this.

Chain of custody, right?

You didn't even bother to try to establish that you couldn't prove that

was Hennessy's. Don't put me down in front of all these people here. Put you

down, I could kill you.

But don't worry, it's not over.

I'm going to nail him.

Just to prove what a dumb dog you are.

I don't know if you're ready, Frank.

What are you going to do about it?

What do you suggest I do? Sue him for slander?

You know my boss would never go for it. Well, at least you could get an apology

through the department.

Otherwise, you're finished, and you know it.

Can't your brother -in -law send us one machine that works?

Surprise.

The brass is waiting up in my office.

Don't walk away from me, you dumb think.

You are a total...

Those are your words.

I'm just repeating them.

You said them to Tom Turner and in front of a group of his associates, too.

I'm sorry.

See how easy that is?

Why don't you say that to Tom Turner? He's a friend of yours, too.

I can't, Frank.

I mean, he'll stick in my throat like this lousy sandwich.

But, uh, don't worry, I'll be okay.

I'm not worrying about you.

I'm worrying about me.

I know what happens if you get hung out to dry.

I mean, you're miserable as a lieutenant.

You'll be even worse if you're a lieutenant who gets hung out to dry.

Hey, Kodja!

Got some glasses?

Well, I just thought you'd want to help me celebrate.

I mean, I hear you are a big bubble.

It's all the fuss about guy was only a tailor keep it shut and if your business

is over get out

How's

it feel to be on trial

I can't take this lying down, Theo. Now, my career won't stand it.

All the retraction means to you, Captain, is an admission that he was

was, and I am.

I'm begging you, Theo. Now, go in there and admit you were wrong. It'll all blow

over. Not for me it won't. Because what you did and the way you did it, it's

like a wife putting the horns on her husband.

No matter how she apologizes, he never forgets or forgives.

Well, what did I do? I blew a case. Now, you never blew one.

I told you, they said they had it fixed, and you did nothing about that.

What are you trying to do to me, Theo?

I'll tell you.

Not only am I going to prove that you let a guilty bum go free, I'm going to

to prove that you did it on purpose.

Okay, you go on in there. I hope they roast you on a stick.

We understand Mr.

Turner requested an apology.

Are you willing to comply?

As far as I'm concerned, Scarlett, I don't give a damn.

You can go to hell, sir.

Theo. Your conduct is already in question.

We hoped you would try to reassure us. No.

No?

Not until I prove that Joe Hennessy killed Charlie Gerson and Turner blew

conviction. Now, that's enough.

Take a vacation.

Is your lieutenant aware of our need to remain impartial in our dealings with

the district attorney's office?

Jack, you know he is.

Can I just say on his behalf, Mark?

Too much has been said by members of Manhattan South already.

That's why we are in this mess.

Right or wrong.

Take a rest.

Until this cools down.

And when you get back, keep away from Tom Turner.

And stay off the Hennessy case.

I understand there's a continuing investigation.

Let others do it.

Just let this whole thing...

Fade away.

Oh.

Wait a minute, Kojak.

Wait a minute.

I mean, a man killed.

And a murderer is caught.

And an assistant district attorney blows the conviction over a basic, simple

rule of procedure.

Shouldn't Tom Turner be coming here on his knees?

Lieutenant, you are suspended as of now, pending a hearing.

Well? Then I can do what I want to do, as a private citizen.

And I promise you, I'll pursue this case.

Turn in your shield to the desk, Lieutenant.

I haven't been avoiding it the last couple of days. I've really been up to

neck.

You look relaxed.

This is what people do when they don't have anything to do, right?

How do you feel? I don't know. Scared?

Angry? Lost?

Your phone message sounded urgent.

Desperate.

You said that Turner lost many cases unexplainably. What do you mean by that,

Walter?

That was a tasteless slip.

You get it.

You said you wanted to help.

You're really going to fight? With everything I have?

By trying to prove Tom Turner is incompetent?

Is he?

That's a lot to ask one man to do to another, Theo. I don't know that I'm up

it. I don't even know that it would lead any place.

You see these pigeons?

You see how they fight over a peanut?

But you know, no matter how they fight... They all stick together. They

their separate ways. Get some of your friends in the DA's office to check

Turner's cases.

Go back two years.

That should be enough.

You tell me. I can't, dear.

They want to help you, let them.

How do you fix a trial?

You try to reach the jury.

And if you can't get to the jury?

Try to fix one of the lawyers.

That's the funny thing about juries.

Sometimes they vote totally against common sense.

What the hell are you asking?

If you wanted to make absolutely certain that a case was going to go your way,

what did you have to do?

You fixed the judge.

sinking ship.

I shouldn't even be seeing you with you.

So give me the information I asked for on the phone and then leave.

The knock was this way.

We're all out.

Theo, he is a fellow assistant DA. So what are you asking me to do?

I'm asking you to tell me if he's a cop. That's all.

How about the roast beef?

He didn't get in yet.

I am not sure.

So why doesn't your boss fire?

Oh, you don't know any cops that shouldn't be cops.

Hey, knock off.

You know, you're not a doctor, right? I thought it was only doctors who protect

other doctors.

Where are you going? I just set up the table.

I'm not hungry.

Go with him yourself.

You what?

Down there.

He blew several cases in the past couple of years.

And five of the six cases involved people who worked with Hennessy.

I don't know why I just did that. Do I just want to get rid of a rotten apple?

Or am I jealous because he dresses better than me and flares the market?

McNeil. Yeah, Frank.

Hey, look.

There's a cigar on my desk, the one that Turner gave me.

Give me the name and the address on the wrapper.

Theo, you were told to stay away from Turner.

I know, Frank. Don't worry, I won't go near him.

Just get the cigar, okay?

Okay, this is a good place to start.

Options, puts and calls.

And once we know the extent of your portfolio, we can go further in this

-risk area.

You say there's about a quarter million to start.

Is it high risk, low risk?

Well, futures, commodities, that sort of thing.

The greater the risk, the bigger the gain.

Yeah.

Oh, you know, Mr. Yardley, you see these hands?

I got them working on the docks.

That's how Kojak Importing got started.

Oh, it's true, maybe I gross $15 or $20 million a year. That's an olive oil.

But I don't forget how tough it was, you understand?

And this investment business, oh, very interesting. We're kind of green at it.

What are you suggesting, I shoot craps?

Well, sir, you said you were recommended by Tom Turner, and Tom goes high risk.

High risk, huh?

Hey, look, if it's a moneymaker for Tom, it's good enough for me.

Well... Tom don't make money at it?

He must have a rich relative somewhere.

Rich relative? That's me.

Hey, look, I like him, so I'd lend him. I trust him, you understand?

That's why I'm here.

Oh, I see.

I was wondering how he got that $25 ,000 to cover his margins so quickly.

Mr. Yardley, this is a very interesting place, don't get me wrong.

But I'm a very cautious man, you understand?

Why don't I just talk this over with Tom?

Can I thank him for sending you in to see me?

Oh, yeah.

Fortune's made and fortune's lost, right?

Men.

I never get over the feeling I'm about to be buried every time I put one of

these things on.

I just got a call from my stockbroker.

He thanked me for sending him a new client, the tall, bald -headed Greek

importer, Theodopoulos Kojak.

He's interested in the same stocks that I've been playing.

Okay? So he knows you're bad in the market.

He'll never know you're barred from Hennessy.

Unless you tell him.

What did we do?

We got you off the hook.

We let a killer go free. Now that is what we did.

And suppose we found him guilty, convicted him.

What would he get?

Hmm?

His father wouldn't like that.

And we accommodated his father.

He's an influential man, Tom.

Also, he held your marker for a small fortune.

We're the law.

We turn it around and use it for our own needs.

To survive in this world, you gotta know what you

need to know. Close your ears to everything else.

Now, Tom.

Tom, wait. Shut the door.

Wait a minute.

Tom, what are you gonna tell the police?

Hennessy can't be tried again no matter what we do.

They're not gonna believe you anyway.

confess that you and I conspired

to intentionally throw a case.

Hennessy was acquitted. What is all this questioning for? He's free.

Hey, Jerry, I can't tell you now, but I want you to trust me, okay?

I don't see any point in cooperating any further with this whole investigation.

Look, Jerry.

You know, Charlie Gerson wasn't just a guy who sold his suits.

I know you lost your father.

I also want you to know that I lost a very dear friend.

Oh, Jack.

I told you. I have nine people working here. Six machine operators, a payroll

clerk, a shipping clerk, and a floor boy.

Nine, not ten, not eight, nine.

The first officer on the scene said he counted ten.

He remembered that. You know why?

Well, he's Irish.

He said he remembered that among Jewish people, you need ten to pray over the

dead. It struck him as ironic. What strikes me is that I received statements

from only nine people. Who else was here?

Kojak, leave the kid alone.

Let him get it all into the past.

Louie, you come into the building at night, do you see anybody in the hall or

the elevator?

No. Not that day.

What's different about that day?

My being interrogated?

Louie, would you have to be?

Wouldn't I tell you if I was here?

You were here that day, Louis.

Jerry, no.

Lou, you're afraid.

This is crazy.

No, it's not crazy, Louie. You came by that day and got a bolt of linen, and

here's the receipt. You signed it, and the receipt is still here.

I forgot.

Did you also forget that you saw Hennessy kill Charles?

Look, he's dead.

He's buried.

What is this? I mean, what good is all this?

Louie.

I saw him kill Charlie.

I saw him.

Well, why didn't you tell this to the DA when he was questioning you?

He never did.

I told you he was there.

You could have come by sooner.

I mean, he would follow me for hours.

I hear you ain't a cop anymore.

So how come you still look the same?

Hey, I knew you were dumb, but not this dumb.

See a witness?

How about that traffic cop?

Wonder where he is now.

Hey, cop, come.

Be a witness.

Okay, Lieutenant?

Huh?

You should never see the lieutenant in there.

Misconditional.

Let me get this clear in my mind.

You can now prove that a man is guilty of a crime after he was acquitted of the

crime.

You're also building up a case for conspiracy against the prosecutor while

working on a case you were told to stay off and ordered to stay away from said

prosecutor by two deputy chief inspectors.

That sounds like a fair day's work.

Why don't you go after them?

Why aren't you dragging Hennessy and his hoods in here?

I told him not to.

Oh, great.

I won't even question that.

Will you do me a favor?

Do me a big favor.

Stay out of it. Now.

Frank, what do you want to do?

You want me to arrest the man who I tried to put away after he's been

I mean, you think there's a jury in the country who's not going to believe

anything when he says that I lied in order to try to put him away?

I'll drive you home.

Well, I'm going to go see Turner.

Theo, you were suspended. You were told to stay away from him.

It's a personal matter.

Well, at last.

We're being sensible.

Go over there, you'll apologize, and you'll get it over with. Frank, there's

way he didn't know that he didn't have a chain of custody on that gun.

Tell me, how does a DA who makes $20 ,000 a year play the stock market like a

millionaire?

Tell me this.

How does he come up with $25 ,000 in a hurry? And how come he lost five cases

two years, all to Frank Hennessy's friends?

Theo, were you trying to say there was a conspiracy?

Well, we picked it up in a wiretap.

They said they had the case fixed.

And they were sure about it.

$25 ,000.

You know something, Frank?

Turner was into Hennessy's money.

Theo, Judge Cleary told you.

An attorney can never be sure he's able to blow a case.

They were sure.

They had the judge, too.

He's going down the drain and we're letting it happen.

Okay, Captain, what do you want us to do?

He's your lieutenant.

Go with him. What do you think I want you to do?

Should I call for help?

See, I'm glad you're here.

I don't even care why you're here. I didn't know what I was going to say when

came here, but I just had to come and talk it out.

Sit. Please, please sit. Thanks, Tom.

It's from my stockbroker.

You give you any?

No.

Why did you go there, Theo?

I was mad at you, Tom, and I wanted to hang you.

I heard from one of my sources that the Hennessey case was thrown.

It was.

What has gotten into you on this?

All the time I'm yelling at you, but it was really Miller.

That's how they knew that that kid was going to get off.

Can you prove that?

Tom, I'm going to need a court order for a wiretap.

On Miller, on the judge, are you crazy, Theo? No, no, no, on Hennessy. That

issue is dead, Theo.

Tom, so is Charlie Gerson.

But I can't try Hennessy again.

Hey, I'm sorry, Tom, I just can't let it go, you understand?

You want to get me in libel, into harassment, or what else?

I want you to give me a court order to tap Hennessy's phone.

So what do you say, friend?

Thanks, Tom.

You know, I admire the guy.

I'm afraid of him, but I admire a guy I can't buy.

Well, I bought you, so take care of it.

Well, I am. I'm telling you.

Now, he's such a dedicated fool, I'm going to get that court order for him.

There's always a chance some judge will feel sorry for him because he's got a

good record and he's in trouble.

How long will it take?

I can stall a day, two.

Okay, long as we know. Oh, and my kid says thanks for getting him off.

Hey, Lieutenant, we can hang this guy now. Really stretch him over the coals.

Are you ready for this, dirty, rotten, shyster lawyer?

He buys the whole ball of wax, and now we put him away for good.

I guess he's right.

I'm just a dedicated fool.

Miller?

Yes?

Kojak just left Turner.

Did he mention me?

Yeah.

He's guessing you're in on the fix.

That's pretty good advice, Lieutenant.

Late?

We were just talking about that.

I have strong feelings about wiretaps, Lieutenant.

They're bad business.

Oh.

Well, I have strong feelings about corruption, Your Honor.

Here's an invitation.

To a party.

It's a grand jury party.

And there's one for each of you.

There you go.

Theo, they had me by the throat.

Whatever trouble you were in, we could have worked it out. Isn't that what you

said? Listen, please, just listen to me.

Theo, I had such big dreams when I was a kid.

District attorney.

A partner in a law firm with ten names on the letterhead. Two hundred attorneys

on staff.

How does a guy say he's just not going anywhere with his life?

He's so damned eager to make it, he keeps blowing it.

Well, I don't dream about being chief inspector anymore.

What crime should I commit?

Theo, we are friends.

So were Brutus and Caesar.

And Cain and Abel were brothers.

They say we're in good company.

They are going to throw the book at me.

I'm not going to like that.

I'm going to help them do it.

signing those invitations.

I would have enjoyed it more if I had one for you.

Yo, you're humor.

Look at me. No laughter.

You turned Turner on me, and then you turned me on Turner.

Oh, you didn't happen to be in the DA's building. You were waiting for me.

You did research on Turner. You did research on Miller.

Then you saw your chance.

They let Hennessy go free, and you didn't do anything about it. You know

Because you wanted Miller's job and you used me for it.

I can't prove it.

I guess I never will.

But look, you're no criminal like they are.

I mean, you're not going to be despot.

You'll continue to do what's right for society after you do what's right for

yourself, your honor.

Come on, Frank.

I knew you couldn't do it.

Felt great saying it.
