All language subtitles for The FBI s08e25 Night of the Long Knives

Go ahead, one.

Your counselor just drove out the west
gate.

Yeah, we got him.

We'll stay with him.

There's an out -of -state car just
pulling in now. Illinois Place.

Stand by.

Ernie Liggett? An extortion case you
handled several years ago.

That's the one.

He's just joined the party.

The counselor must be on to something or
he wouldn't walk out on a wedding.

That's right.

But I haven't found him.

Are you trying to get me killed?

No. Then pull yourself together.

I can't.

I don't want Uncle Frankie to die.

Or Mr. Faber.

Or you, Jerry.

What could happen?

You've got to stop it.

It's too late. It's too late.

The wheels are in motion already.

Tell me.

Where have I seen you before?

I don't think we've ever met.

I think we have.

Tonight's episode, Night of the Long
Knives.

What are you two doing here? Thought you
didn't like duck hunting.

The boss is coming back tomorrow.

So? We held another vote.

He dies.

You don't really think we can take over,
do you?

Or not we?

You see, you're the one that talked us
out of hitting him on the first vote.

All right, so you changed my vote, but
not your mind.

We still think you're the boss's man.

So we're gonna have to leave you here.

What are you talking about? This is
crazy.

You're gonna have an accident.

It's best if you look like you stumbled
and fell.

to make sure. Hold it!

Let's get out of here.

The wounding of Stanley Arthur Kyler, a
key figure in the criminal organization,

came to the attention of the FBI only
hours before the Bureau had obtained a

warrant for his arrest, charging Kyler
with violations of the Interstate

Transportation of Stolen Property
statute.

Inspector Lewis Erskine, who was
coordinating the case at Bureau

arrived in New York to spearhead the
investigation.

You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can be used against
you.

And you have the right to an attorney if
you wish.

How would I know about securities?

$500 ,000 worth of stocks were stolen
from a Wall Street brokerage house two

weeks ago.

That's tragic.

Some of them surfaced at the Mercantile
Bank in Trenton last Wednesday.

Well, you pledged them as collateral
against a $100 ,000 loan.

And you've been identified.

Is that right?

Anything else?

Yes, you had an accomplice with you at
the bank.

He acted as your broker.

Who is he?

Your friends nearly got you, Kyler.

Next time, they won't leave any loose
ends.

It was an accident.

They tripped.

And shot yourself?

Nothing else to say.

Doctor will be here right away.

They didn't just want me.

They want all of them.

They're going to kill all three.

Kyler's still alive.

Where does that leave us?

Maybe dead.

Yeah, well, if he hasn't talked by now,
he probably won't.

Deep coma.

That means he's on his way out.

We're all right.

And we go ahead as planned?

As planned.

It's a shame Kyler won't be here for
your wedding.

Or the reception.

Yeah, I gotta get upstairs. There's a
lot to get done before the boss gets

Listen, Raleigh.

You better understand, the boss is
plenty upset.

I mean, he's not too happy about the way
those last stocks were moved.

You better stay out of sight down here
until after the wedding.

Then maybe he'll be in a mood to forgive
anything.

Yeah, all right. But let me get a couple
hours air first.

Okay.

else out there? Your tailor.

He wants another fitting on your wedding
suit.

That independent we took over in Orange.

Slots operator.

Yeah.

He wants his machines back.

He refuses to let us service them.

He needs a lecture.

Let's give him a new face.

May I advise you?

Oh, please.

Please do, counselor.

It's a good sign that this independent
was angry.

We just robbed him of his business.

If he were not angry, I would worry.

This last act of defiance was just his
way of saving face.

Talk to him with courtesy, but firmness,
and I'm sure everything will be all

right.

You're right, as usual.

Thank you, Counselor.

I need a lot more experience.

The boss shouldn't have appointed me in
his absence.

No, he was right.

Not many of our young people will listen
and learn.

I appreciate that.

I'll dismiss the rest of the people.

Something about old men.

Can you live with that?

He's my uncle.

That's not what I asked.

Yeah.

Weller. And the boss.

That ought to do it.

And the cigar.

Is there any way to treat your future
father -in -law's things?

Well, he won't be around to enjoy them.

Isn't there any other way to... No,
there isn't.

The organization comes first.

Look at him.

Fat and soft at a touch.

There are whole new fields to be tapped.

New racial connections to be
established.

A million things.

It's a whole new ballgame.

If they won't retire, they'll have to be
retired.

All for the organization.

Ed, who's going to be the organization?

Whoever has the guts to take it.

How do you think the boss got in this
chair, waiting for somebody to hand it

him?

No, there's only one way.

They create a vacuum by getting rid of
the right people, and then...

I step in.

First I marry his daughter so the
relatives don't get upset I'm an

And then I get rid of him.

Yes. Eddie?

I hate to bother you.

I know this is silly, but I just wanted
to call you and tell you I love you.

I can't think of a better reason.

Tomorrow's really the big day.

I can't believe it.

I know.

Believe it, honey.

Are you sure that Daddy will make it
here in time?

Are you kidding?

He wouldn't miss it.

I'm so looking forward to seeing him.

Aren't you?

I can hardly wait.

That's the one.

Are you certain?

Absolutely. He came in with that other
man who pledged the stolen securities.

All right. Thanks very much.

Kyler and Roland Cardwell.

Cardwell's a known associate of Kyler.
They both belong to the same arm of the

criminal organization.

The U .S. Attorney's authorized a
warrant on Cardwell.

Cardwell could have been involved in the
shooting of Kyler.

Informants say he's one of Haynes' men.

We're surveilling all his known
hangouts, Mr. Ward.

So far, no luck.

Any further information on the
executions Kyler mentioned?

Not yet.

All right.

You know Haynes has been filling in for
Arnold Faber, his boss.

Well, tomorrow he's getting married to
Faber's daughter.

It's going to be a big wedding.

Mm -hmm.

And I suppose just about every important
member of the organization will be

there. I think our best chance of
getting Cardwell is to put somebody

ahead of time.

Well, that'll give us a good opportunity
to develop some intelligence

information.

Any ideas?

They're using a very fashionable
catering service, not one of their

I could talk to the owner, see if he'll
go along.

All right, let me know what you find
out, and I'll speak to the director.

the tables.

How's it going?

Splendidly, Mr. Haynes. Just splendidly.

Well, let me give you a little piece of
advice.

Everything better be perfect.

Food, wine, the works.

One fork out of place and you're in
trouble.

I understand.

I wonder if I might have a copy of the
seating arrangement.

What do you mean?

Well, I only have an estimate of the
number of guests. It would help if I

exactly how many and their names so that
I might arrange place cards.

There's no place cards.

You see, we're very...

Everybody knows where they belong.

Yes, of course.

Call for the Major D.

The chef wants you.

Excuse me.

Hello?

The supplies are all set, Mr. Stanton.

Everything all right at your end?

Yes, fine.

I'll get back to you if I need anything.

It's good to see you. Good to see you.

Welcome home, boss.

It's nice to be home.

How do you feel? I feel fine.

Walk with me.

You've done a fine job, Eddie.

Nothing but good reports.

Except for Cardwell.

Where is he?

I'll find him. You leave it to me.

Sure.

You even kept the place up.

Everything's in order.

Fresh and clean.

Nice. Just like it should be.

Where's Kyler?

Oh, well, you know, Kyler, when he goes
hunting, like the time he shot the cow

for a deer and almost blew the head off
the farmer who was milking him.

Here's some water.

Water.

Come on, come on.

Okay.

Thank you.

Who's that one?

He's the maitre d' for the catering
company.

Why didn't we use a lawyer?

Your daughter, she only wanted the best,
you know, real uptown society.

You didn't use good judgment, Eddie.

With our own, it's always safer. You
know that.

Jerry.

Won't you tell me what it is?

What are you talking about?

I've been watching you coming apart.

I've heard you in your sleep.

There's nothing wrong.

Nothing.

Please don't lie to me.

You've been ready to explode for weeks.

Honey, don't you let me help you.

No, I can't.

It's business.

It must be terrible to have no one to
talk to.

Helen?

In my sleep.

What did you hear?

Over and over.

The boss.

Uncle Frank.

Blue four -door.

Massachusetts plates.

418 -299.

Looks like the Ferguson brothers out of
Boston, both with wives, no children.

Second car.

Thank you.

Second car, two male occupants.
Identity's uncertain.

Four -door black sedan.

New York license 5F9836.

There's 24 guests.

15 identified.

New York DMV reports a

Continental. License 5F9836, registered
to Norman Scott Jocelyn.

Norman Scott Jocelyn.

Known alias of Alex Josephson, under
Boss Philadelphia.

16 identified.

We've checked informants. There's still
no word out on any killings.

Except for what Kylie told us.

Any improvement to his condition? Still
in a coma.

And no sign of Cardwell.

A lot depends on what's happening inside
that estate right now.

congratulations on the marriage of the
daughter of my friend, and to thank him

for permitting the pleasure of my
presence here this evening. Oh, thank

thank you.

The

supply

of Chateau is running dry.

You'd better call.

Oh, dear, and I'm afraid we're out of
stock.

Let me see.

Of course, if you have some in your
cellar... No, no, there's none down

Well, I'll call my office and see what I
can do.

He's in a Newark hospital.

Gallbladder operation.

Not so good.

So good at all.

Killing the rest of them won't help if
he's still around.

Is there any security?

One bodyguard.

He shouldn't be too hard to reach. I'm
sending a man out now.

Where's the counselor?

I haven't seen him around in a couple of
hours.

I don't know.

Blood and death.

Everlasting power struggles.

And now a new one. The usual.

The young ready to devour the old.

My loyalty is the boss.

But how would he believe me? I have no
proof.

Ains has his ear.

I would be put down as just a senile old
man.

It could mean death.

And I'm so deeply afraid because I know
and

because of this life I've led, I will
never be allowed to

join you.

The counselor just drove out the west
gate.

Yeah, we got him.

We'll stay with him.

Does his leaving have any special
significance?

I think something's ready to break.

Have you seen Cardwell yet?

No, but the basement seems to be out of
bounds.

I'm trying to figure out a way to get
down there.

There's an out -of -state car just
pulling in now. Illinois plates.

Stand by.

You remember any Liggett?

Yeah, an extortion case you handled
several years ago.

That's the one.

He's just joined the party.

What are you doing here?

Haynes wants to know if Waller's all
right.

What are you doing? You're supposed to
be guarding him.

Doctors are operating on him now.

Figured I'd be comfortable until they
got him up to his room.

Haynes sent a gift.

Give me a hand, huh?

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank
you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank

you.

Yeah, yeah, fine. Thank you.

May

the

council must be on to something or he
wouldn't walk out on a wedding.

That's right.

But I haven't found.

You waiting tables around here?

May I help you? I got a dead soldier.

Can I have yours?

I know you.

Where do I know you? Tell me that.

I can't imagine, sir.

Maybe I'm wrong.

Did you run a place in Jersey City?

Excuse me.

Does he remember you?

Not exactly.

It's quite a while ago.

Mr. Ward's very concerned about your
safety.

He thinks you ought to get out of here
now.

I will. I just want to make sure the
catering crew is here.

In case seven to control.

We know he's here. Tell him to come out.

It's all right, Frank. I don't want to
cause you any trouble. What do you want?

Haynes sent us to get some flowers for
the wedding. He figured this is one of

the places you might go.

Let him go.

He knows nothing about anything. He goes
with you.

Thank you.

Why don't you go up and get ready? We've
got a long trip ahead of us.

I'm dizzy.

Too much champagne.

Two whole glasses.

All right.

You go up and take a little nap.

There's no hurry.

We've got the rest of our lives.

Love you.

And help them up to their knees.

A little tip for you and your men.

Thank you, sir.

Now you can pack up and leave.

Thank you. Party's over.

Eddie, have the saxophonist stay.

Play

something

with melody.

You know, that's the trouble with songs
today. No melody.

May I? Yes, please.

Dance.

emotional at weddings. I'll see what's
wrong.

Are you trying to get me killed?

No. Then pull yourself together.

I can't.

I can't.

I don't want Uncle Frank to die.

Or Mr. Faber.

Or you, Jerry.

What could happen?

You've got to stop it. I can't. I can't.
Don't you see that?

Find a way to stop Haynes.

It's too late. It's too late.

The wheels are in motion already.

Where have I seen you before?

I don't think we've ever met.

I think we have, Inspector Erskine.

They tried to kill you.

Why do you feel you owe them anything?

In the organization, we take an oath of
silence.

I can't break it, even though... Even
though what?

Men who have been my lifelong friends
are to die.

What friends?

It's too late.

You can't stop it.

Maybe we can, if you help us.

I've explained my situation.

You haven't explained why you ran out.

I didn't want to be present.

My reasons were practical. I was afraid.

Afraid?

And disillusioned?

How long do you intend being
intimidated?

There's to be a purge.

Do you know the hitmen?

Haynes, Sessions, and Caldwell.

They want to remove the old ones and
take over.

Is Cardwell on the estate?

Yeah. Is there a timetable for the
executions?

Probably about now.

The celebration should be having its
effect on the old ones. Give me a list

the victims, please.

McGregor?

Yes, put him on.

The counselor talked.

He gave us the names of the intended
victims.

Are they all there at the estate?

I'll accept Weller, who's in the
hospital.

I've notified security there and the
police.

All right, all right.

How many other, Tom?

There are two of them, Mr. Ward.

Sterrett's boys.

Joe Peckin on a lock.

That's the second car to be refused.

Yes, sir. It looks like they're sealing
off the estate.

The guards are expecting me.

I'm going in now.

All right, Tom.

Be sure you've got sufficient manpower
with you. There's no telling what you'll

run into.

Ed, this is crazy.

You can't kill an FBI man.

We can't let him out of here.

It's got to be me they're after.

What Sessions says about killing him
makes sense.

He's been around long enough to hear too
much.

Put it away.

No, he's not leaving.

Now it looks like I've got no choice.

We better get the rest of the show on
the road.

Why? You can't do this.

Don't beg.

Let's go.

Downstairs.

You've got to stop them.

You can't let them kill him.

Please.

Stay right where you are.

Put your hands on top of your head. Turn
around.

I think I deserve that much.

See? With respect.

With respect.

How do you get to the basement?

Well, through here someplace.

But I don't know how to open this.

Completely surrounded.

I think you're bluffing.

But even if you do have men outside,
I'll take my chances getting out of

Then let them find me and prove who
killed who.

You're in over your head, Eddie.

If you do pull this off, you'll need me
to clear you with the organization.

If I let you go, you'll be the first one
to put a bullet in my head.

Not if we make a deal.

After all, Laurie's all I've got. If
something happens to you, it would kill

her. So we make a deal, you and I.

Oh, I won't kid you and say you'll stay
in the business, but at least he'll be

alive.

You got a way out of here?

There's a tunnel at the end of the
cellar.

I don't think they'll have it covered.

Finish him.

No, hitting him is out.

I told you, I made a deal with you. With
him, I can't.

You're not married to his daughter.

You think he's going to let you live?

Hit him!

Ed.

What he says makes sense.

Somebody help me, please.

Come on, come on, get up. Come on.

Put your hands up.

Put your hands on the bottom.

Colonel Faber, Edward Haynes, and Gerald
Sessions, along with Roland Cardwell

and a number of Faber's other
Confederates, including Stanley Kyler,

convicted of conspiracy and interstate
transportation of stolen property.

Haynes' associates were also convicted
in state court of attempted murder and

federal court of assaulting federal
officers.
