The landlord wants us out.

What do we do?

Go to a home?

Live in the street?

Who's the landlord?

Guthrie Brown.

The banker?

I've been hired to ensure the safety of
your wife and your son. During the

course of my investigations, I
discovered that your husband is going to

you.

I've got to get my mom!

Come on, what have you done?

Get over there!

Move now!

Mommy!

Hi, Dad.

I know I said I was coming home for the
holidays, but there's been a little

change in the plan.

How does a Christmas ski trip to Val d
'Isere sound?

You still remember how to ski, don't
you?

I hear the snow's in great shape, and I
think it'll be a lot of fun.

Uh, something else has happened, too.

I've met somebody really special.

Her name is Giselle.

She's right here.

She's shy.

We want you to come along with us.

So if you can't go, let me know right
away, okay?

Otherwise, we're planning on it.

Love you, Dad.

Step away from your house.

You're awful.

Look at all that garbage.

How you doing, old man?

Such a mess.

You people make such a mess.

By the way, this elevator is out of
service.

Effective now.

You can't do that.

There's nothing the matter with that
elevator.

It's unsafe.

We live on the seventh floor.

Well, you better start climbing now.

You'll be late for supper, Pop.

I was 15 years younger.

Now, boy.

He's talking to you, boy.

Get down.

Down!

That's better.

Oh,

look at this. All over the floor.

Oh,

thank you. Thank you.

All right, my dear. You are about to
learn how to play the game.

Keep your cards to yourself.

Oh, you can see my cards again?

I hope Lily brings back something
without nuts. I'm allergic.

I'm allergic to nuts, too, but I invite
you into my home, don't I? Don't worry.

My wife will be back with the groceries
soon, and you will not starve to death.

She should have been back half an hour
ago.

Oh, Saul probably had another stop to
make after the market.

Oh, garbage, garbage. All I get is
garbage.

Yeah, well, your garbage is my game.

Gin.

Okay, the knocking point is three.

What

happened

to Saul? Is he okay?

He went to rest.

It's brown thugs, isn't it?

This has gone too far. Well, I'll tell
you what I'm going to do. I quit. I'm

of here.

Where can we go? We can't afford to go
anywhere. If you think Brown is going to

stop, he's not. He's going to continue
making our lives miserable until he

drives us all out and without breaking
the law. That's the worst. We can't go

the police. He never does anything we
can take him up on. I was looking

the paper the other day for an
affordable apartment. Yeah, you'd have a

chance of winning a lottery. This is all
I saw.

Probably cost an arm and a leg. I'm
going to call him.

What is he, a private eye?

This is a joke.

The joke is living like this.

All of us in this room afraid to go
outside.

Living in terror in our own home.

Garbage in the hallways.

No hot water.

Walking up seven flights of stairs.
That's the joke.

So why aren't you laughing?

How's your baby?

Back on the door.

Lily.

Don't get your hopes up too high. It
might work and it might not.

We pay $280 a month under rent control.

That's all we can afford, rent a fixed
income.

The landlord wants us out.

He'll renovate the building and sell
condominiums for a million dollars

No, Marty, no.

All right, don't get excited.

What do we do?

Go to a home?

Live in the street?

I'm 74 years old.

Marty's 75.

We got no place to go.

What do we do?

I'm sorry, Mr. McCall.

No.

Who's the landlord?

Guthrie Brown.

The banker?

Yeah. He's turned this place into a
prison.

Every time an apartment gets vacant, he
fills it with goons.

They harass us.

We... tried to fight, but... He's got
fancy lawyers to make sure whatever he

does is legal, but it's making it
impossible for us to live.

Ideally, what would you want?

To live in peace in our own home.

To live where we're not afraid to step
out of our own apartment.

And a place that doesn't smell like a
garbage dump. That's all.

I'll tell you what I'll do.

I'll get someone in here to protect you.

In the meantime, I'll see what I can do
about Mr. Guthrie Brown.

On the table, a jug of punch.

Another one, Eddie. Clean glasses this
time. Never mind that one dipper.

Professional courtesy.

Yeah.

He's still homeless.

Well, a couple of friends of mine need a
live -in for a week or so.

It's too boring.

Pat, will you go home to your wife?

Too boring.

I don't think you'd find this boring,
Georgie. I think your magic will be

up your street.

Two hours ago, I was having a good time.

Two hours ago, you were still
complaining. You've complained ever

the pub. Who's complaining? You're
complaining. I am not complaining.

complaining.

What is this place anyway? It's a dump.

It's worse than that Temple of Doom
motel I'm at.

And what am I going to do over here?

Baby's sitting two teasers.

This is George Cook.

George is going to be staying with you
for a while.

George, this is Mr. and Mrs. Wim.

The teasers.

So, uh, where am I sleeping?

I can set up a cart.

A cart?

Robert, are you sure you want me, I
mean, me, to stay here for this?

Absolutely.

So, uh...

Where do you get the drink?

We have a little seltzer.

And you're still enjoying your work?
Sure. I have a talent for it.

A sixth sense of all the dirt people
hide in their books.

If I wasn't a bank examiner, I'd be a
detective.

Oh, yeah. Well, I'm very glad it worked
out for you. What can I do for you?

Knickerbocker savings.

200 million deposits.

Net assets 1 .05 times federal
requirements.

Solid. Real estate. Growth potential.
Good place for your money.

And the man himself?

Guthrie Brown is on top of the financial
heap.

Everyone would love the chance to knock
him off it. Wall Street scuttlebutt has

it. People might soon get their wish.

Not on the up and up, eh? It hardly ever
is.

I was most grateful if you could keep
your ear to the ground and yourself

available. I must thank you for it.

Always ready.

Okay, so I fell asleep. This is not an
international crisis we are talking

here. Hey, that's easy for you to say.
Well, at least you enjoyed yourself,

right? I did.

May I help you with something?

Yes, yes, I hope so.

With opening accounts, I would imagine.

I would like to see your current CD
rate, please, and your mutual fund

portfolio. That's Guthrie Brown, our
founder.

Oh, really?

Great reputation on Wall Street, I
understand. Oh, it only just starts

Tax shelters, redevelopment projects,
large -scale pension funds. It's a

he even has time to put in an appearance
here.

Yes, yes, I suppose it is.

Well, if you would just fill out these
applications and then we can get down.

Excuse me, is this the new Folsom
Conversion?

Yes, sir, it sure is.

Beautiful, beautiful.

Would you mind if I had a look inside,
just a brief look? No, no, not at all.

Thank you.

Oh,

it's lovely.

Very lovely.

Wonderful workmanship.

Oh, yes. Really, I was thinking of
purchasing one myself. Thank you very

indeed. Take care. Thank you. Bye -bye.

What's on TV tonight?

Ah, let me take this out for you.

No, no, leave it. We'll take it out in
the morning. Ah, you don't want to stay

all night in an apartment with this. Oh,
I know it's not pleasant, but it's more

pleasant than what's out there.

Do you think?

Eric,

would you knock it off, please?

Yeah. In that case, don't. I'm not
paying you to think. I'm paying you to

listen. I'm going to take care of it by
2 o 'clock this afternoon.

All right.

Eric, knock it off for the last time.
I'm telling you.

How? I'm still here.

Oh, this is going to have to wait a
little while. I've got to drop my boy

I'll get back to you.

Maybe I'll see you in the club later.
No, no, not tonight. I've got other

Bye -bye.

Okay, Eric, he's waiting. Now, come on,
hop out.

Hey, hey, you be sure to tell her you
had a good time. No, I won't. Don't you

talk to me like that after all I've done
for you. Aren't you even going to say

thank you? Eric!

Mom!

Can't you teach this kid some manners?

Why don't you learn some?

Leave her alone!

Well, Mr.

Brown. Sorry I'm late. I had a very busy
day.

Are you ill?

I feel wonderful.

You look absolutely horrible. I'm fine.

I made the first payment into your Swiss
account. Here's the italics confirming

the deposit.

They already sent me the original.

I'm allergic to smoke.

Are you really?

Yes. Give me a sign of stakes.

I always smoke.

Obviously a man of conviction.

What about the final payment?

On delivery.

We step outside.

Smoke.

You don't, uh... You don't foresee any
problems.

There are always problems.

That's what makes my work interesting.

Now let's just keep it. Damn it.

I'll be in touch.

Hey, McCall.

Mr. McCall.

It's really coming down.

What the hell is that you're about to
eat?

This is cream cheese and sauerkraut and
a hot dog. It's my own invention.

I'm going to call it creamy pork puppy
stripper.

You want a bite?

You must be joking. Put it away. Put it
away.

Right, license numbers, car numbers.

What names and faces put to them?

My address is Mr. McCall.

Do you think you brought me some cash?
In the glove.

Thanks.

What is it, for more pork puppies?

Oh, no, this is for the next.

They've been killing me all year.

I just dropped $11 ,000 to Atlanta.

Now, who's Atlanta?

Figure this dwarf on Atlanta can hit a
bucket from Grand Central Station.

You know, I really do enjoy our
conversation, Sterner, because I never

understand a bloody word you say.

When can you deliver it? Oh, soon.

Soon. You know what it's like to lose
$11 ,000 in two seconds?

I've been eating the pork puppies all
week.

Ah!

Don't have water!

It hasn't been for two days since the
boiler's broken!

Get me some matches!

This is a lot of bull.

How you doing, fellas?

Excuse me.

Okay, now, I'll fix it.

You know, you guys got nothing better to
do than stand around here.

Let me just clean it up.

Now,

I want them all outside no later than 9
o 'clock tomorrow morning, all right?

That's no problem.

Now, I'll give each person one $20 bill.

I have to ask this.

How can you be doing all of this?

Putting out your own money and charging
us nothing. I don't understand.

No, no, well, sometimes neither do I.

I backtrack these three numbers.

Two are metro court buildings.

This one's a lawyer. The other guy seems
to be an accountant.

Now, the most interesting one is this
guy here in the town car.

See, first I turn up zip.

The vehicle is registered to a phony
corporation.

I run a check. Here's the description
you give me of a guy. I come up with his

name.

Kahn.

You're sure it's Kahn?

Yeah.

Mr. Brown has bought himself a hit.

Well, no offense to Mr. McCall, but I'm
out of here.

Who will be so important?

I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Have a good day.

If this guy killed his wife right now,
we wouldn't be able to take this

conversation into court. All you've done
is corrupt the evidence. All right. All

right, Lieutenant.

So I'm wasting my time talking to you,
and I have inherited a new client.

If you ask me, you're wasting your time,
period.

I need a favor.

So what's new? What is this, number 1
,380? I don't know who's counting.

If anybody tries to run a trace on me
through your computer, let them find

You're setting yourself up as a target?

Not too great.

Well, possibly not, but then neither was
Guthrie Brown when he ordered a hit on

his wife.

Could I speak to Mrs. Brown, please?

I need to talk to you about your
husband.

What about him?

What's he done now?

I really would like to talk to you for a
few minutes in the lobby.

I have reason to believe that you and
your son are in some danger.

Just give me a couple of minutes.

I'll be down.

Thank you.

Mrs. Brown.

How do you do? I brought up a call.

You don't know me.

And I know it will be difficult for you,
but I would ask you to trust me and

believe what I'm about to say.

I was hired by the tenant of your
husband.

And during the course of my
investigations, I discovered that your

going to kill you.

What am I going to do?

I've got to call the police. No, no,
Mrs. Brown. I've already been to the

police.

At the moment, there's nothing they can
do.

I only have circumstantial evidence, you
see.

And my instinct, based on two decades of
dealing with men like your husband.

There are no men like my husband.

What he really wants is Eric.

Why?

As far as I can understand.

It wasn't exactly a good relationship.

What he wants is custody.

For tax reasons, he's put all his assets
under Eric's name.

Whoever has custody of Eric has control
of all that money.

I see.

Mom?

When is this going to happen?

I think soon.

Can you help us?

Of course.

That's why I'm here.

This place is gross.

Do people live here?

Of course they do, Eric.

Are we going to live here?

Just for a little while.

This is when I know you're crowded.

But I wonder if you have room for just
two more.

This is Andrea Brown.

And her son, Eric.

The landlord's wife?

That's right.

Please, come in.

Come on. Come in.

The game is on. Come on.

Are you a St. John's fan?

He's all right.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You said earlier you weren't kidding.
Can I have him this morning at 10 o

'clock? I can't. I got a dentist
appointment.

He'll have to wait. For Pete's sake,
McCall, I lost the crown.

What the heck do you want me to do when
I get there anyway?

Announce yourself. Look around.

You're a bank examiner.

Examine something.

Treasury Department.

We're here to examine your books. Please
have them ready immediately.

I don't need your love. I can mind
myself. Mind myself.

God, I'm Mr. Wynn.

I couldn't resist it.

Anyway, I want to see how things go.

I'll see you later.

What about Kelly? Yeah, Kelly. You have
to put him off until the end of next

week. But don't forget Eric. I've got to
get a car to pick up the boy this

afternoon. I don't know if that's going
to be possible, sir. Why not?

Well, it seems that your wife and son
aren't home.

They're not home. Where are they?

Well, some guy came in yesterday and she
and the kid left with him.

Some guy?

Who is he? Where'd they go? We lost him.
We ran a check on the car and, well, it

isn't back yet.

What the hell is going on here?

I'm not sure. Who are these people? I
don't know. Well, but I'll find out.

find out.

Get these people out of here. Sir, we
can't. Throw these people out here. The

banking seminar decided to pay us a
visit today, sir.

Be restful.

I'd like to open an account. Do you have
a Hanukkah? Well, you have to fill out

an application. Would you please take my
money? You give me a receipt.

It's the bottom of this. I don't know
what the hell is going on. Mr. Brown.

What? I'd like to talk to you about the
building you have at 219 East DeSoto

Avenue. No, that's not for that.

Wait a minute.

What is this?

This setup.

It's gotta be.

Excuse me.

Excuse me. What are you going to do with
that?

Is this?

I put $20 in. $20 in, yes.

And I took $10 out. $10 out. And then...
Now what are you going to do? Well, I'm

going to join the back of the line and
go up to the top and I put my $10 in and

I put $20 in. I'm losing my mind. I'm
losing my tiny mind. And we are coming

back tomorrow and the next day and the
day after.

Well, that's what you do here, isn't it?

You put money in and take it out. That's
what we're doing. Tell the man.

I'm going to tell him. I'm going to...
Somebody, please tell me. We want our

apartment building back.

We want the thugs out. We want it
painted. We want an elevator.

And we want those dogs out of the
hallway. You know what she's talking

They're from that place over on DeSoto.
Rent control place in DeSoto. I thought

that was cleared out. So, what do you
think, Mr. Brown?

We give you your bank back. You give us
our building back.

Pal, you made your point.

You know, if it's this important to you,
you got me, pal.

You got me.

Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and
gentlemen, I just want to make a little

announcement.

Your representative here has made me
aware, painfully aware,

of the horrible living conditions that
you're enduring.

And I want to give you my word.

I am going to do my best, do everything
possible to fix

that building.

Send two guys over there right away.

Start fixing that?

Torch it.

Shuffle him over to the rail. He knows
the footing's better over there. What

about the Eugene kid? No scratch punch.

He's just waiting for that rail to open
up.

And he's saving Brian a book.

He figures in a stretch that speed's
gonna die, and bang -ho, he'll slip by

all. I still think E .G. and Kid can
win.

You forget about the E .G. and Kid. He
is no match for shut -eye.

What are you doing here? I'm trying to
teach you horse racing.

What did I tell you?

That speed up front's losing out here.
Come shut -eye. Come on, baby.

Come on, baby.

Wait a minute. Who is this on the
outside?

E .G. and Kid, I told you.

No way.

It's 14 to 1. How did you know that?

My daddy owns her.

You come here.

What the... Next thing we got to talk
about is giving your friends tips.

All right, all right. Who do you like in
the night?

Sir, here's the make on the guy who took
your wife. I think you'll get that.

My wife was hired at a damn hitman.

Been another change in the Christmas
plans.

The ski trip is off.

I know, I know, I'm really sorry. What
happened was, um, well, they'll kind of

dump me.

Hey, you know these French girls, right?

Really wish we could get together for
the holidays, but I guess I should be

studying.

Maybe I'll see you in the spring.

Anyway, Merry Christmas, and don't worry
about me, I'm fine.

So, uh, you have a good day, and I'll
see you.

Merry Christmas, Scott.

Exactly.

The way I wanted it.

I know what you do, and I know that my
wife hired you to kill me.

That's right. What?

How can you say that?

How can you stand there and tell me that
you've been hired to kill me? What the

hell? How can you do this?

Well, that is good. That's very good
coming from you.

I've been hired to ensure the safety of
your wife and your son.

The easiest way to do that is to let you
know.

That if you harm them, I will kill you.
It's as simple as that.

What if I have my man Hector here? Take
your head off right now.

Then I'll grow another head right now.

You want to stand off.

You got it.

Go on.

Bloody cold out here. Get in the car.
We'll talk.

Come on.

Get out of here.

What have you done with them?

There's your apartment building in
DeSoto Street.

Now?

Yes.

Let's get over there.

Why? What have you done? Let's get over
there!

You get going!

What do you say we check it out, sport?

Right.

You have to stop that for the other
side.

Oh, I'm sorry.

It's all right.

Ma 'am, this place is spooky.

Don't let the dirt get you down. This is
a simple operation over here.

They even got instructions. You can
read, can't you?

Yeah.

What the hell is this?

Eric, get out of here. Come on. Get out
right now. I'm not fooling around here.

Eric, get out of here.

Oh, my God.

Eric, get out of here right now. Come
on, Peter.

Good.

After 38 years, you don't remember all
the ingredients in my blitzes.

Don't forget to stop by the florist.

Tonight we celebrate.

remember either fire fire fire there's a
fire

but eric well we have to get out eric no
he said no but i

know we gotta get out of the apartment

some guys

in the slammer?

Yeah.

I don't think that even Mr.

Brown's lawyers will find it easy to
untangle him from this.

You know, Robert, he still played the
game pretty good.

Then why did I feel that I haven't won?

May I have a word with you?

Yes, of course.

See you in there, George.

Is my husband still going to try and
kill me?

No, no, no.

I... We had a meeting earlier on today,
and we came to an understanding.

These people have had a very tough time.

They've lost a lot.

The holiday season coming on as well.

Actually, they're going to have the best
holiday they've ever had. I'm going to

see to that.

While my husband is doing penance.

The controlling interest of this
property will be mine.

Wouldn't you say this building needs a
complete restoration?

Oh, yes, yes. I mean, that's long
overdue.

I owe you so much. How can I ever repay
you?

I think you just have.

George!

Why don't you and I go and have a drink?

Happy Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you, too, Mr. McCall.

Jingle bells, jingle all the way.

Oh, what fun it is to ride...

trying to say is that

Bye.
