All language subtitles for LA Dragnet s01e03 All That Glitters

The story you were about to see was
inspired by actual events.

The names have been changed to protect
the innocent.

It was Friday. It was sunny in Los
Angeles.

My partner and I were working the day
shift at a robbery homicide.

A call came in at 8 .30.

Caucasian male dumped off Mulholland.

I love L .A.

Starting another day at the top of the
world.

My name's Friday.

I'm a cop. Neck, throat was slashed.

The way he's dressed.

Looks like money.

Joe. Frank.

You guys are welcome to this one.

Start from the neck, looks like he was
beat up.

Yeah. We're searching for a weapon.
Unless his belt's missing.

What? Look.

He's not wearing a belt.

That's just weird.

He found the body.

Sellers, David, out walking his doggy.

Thanks, Kevin.

Where's your dog, Mr. Sellers?

Uh, he ran away.

He saw the body and he was scared.

Dogs don't run, they sniff.

Show us your hands, palm down.

What? Your hands, now.

There's blood on your fingernails. Tell
us now, give it over.

All right.

Okay. I shouldn't have taken that.

Ooh.

Kizzle seam cord.

Expensive. How expensive?

A grand.

A grand?

For the buckle. The belt's another
thousand.

Each is unique to itself. Signed and
numbered. Maybe we can trace it.

Come here.

You got prints on that belt.

Out of your civic sense of duty, you're
going to volunteer to be fingerprinted,

officer. No problem. Go LAPD.

Why was he here?

Go for a walk and end up like this.

He wasn't walking.

Road slash.

That's not robbery.

So what is it?

You try NCIC?

DOJ? No, because then I have to go back.
I gotta go to a judge and come way back

out here. Your friend's good? All right,
let me know. Right. They got the

victim's prints. They don't show up
anywhere.

Peter Holt of 15347 Ocean Avenue in
Malibu.

Neiman Marcus.

Bought his belt there last month.

Deb, Joe, call Sheriff's Malibu Station,
will you? Tell them we're getting a

search warrant and meet us there at
15347 Ocean Avenue, Malibu. And send a

team, too, huh?

Thanks.

Some people say Malibu is just another
beach town.

It is, if you're used to seeing Johnny
Carson and Barbara Streisand on the

Peter Holt had the kind of house people
in L .A. call an architectural.

It's a fancy word that means
ridiculously expensive.

Wow. What do you think a place like this
goes for? Don't even ask.

Pat for your help.

Hey, guys.

Your victim couldn't afford it either.
Look at this.

Mortgage payment two months overdue.

Jaguar, K -8.

Missed lease payment.

Past due. Past due.

Final notice.

Bag that up. He had a Jag and couldn't
pay his cable bill.

I guess those premium channels really
add up.

No car in the garage, sir. Call the
death.

Ask him to run the victim for DMV and
put a wand out on the car.

I saw her on Access Hollywood.

Huh.

She used to date one of the Lakers.

No crime having your picture taken with
a beautiful woman, huh?

Oh, wow.

The violator.

Don't tell me you've seen it.

Oh, I've seen all three of them. They're
great.

The guy that makes them is a genius.

Produced by Peter Holt.

Thank you to producer Jesse Roth.

Viking Films.

No one would want to hurt Peter.

No, I'm sure this is impossible.

It must be someone else.

There's no question of identification.
I'm sorry. It was definitely Mr. Holt.

No, it can't be.

Your relationship with Mr. Holt, was it
personal?

You mean... No, no, we were just
friends.

And? What did Mr. Holt do here?

He raises capital for the movies.

Oh, this is crazy. People love Peter.
I'm the bad one.

I scream save money. He says make a good
movie.

Was Mr. Holt seeing anyone?

No one's seeing him as far as I know.

Just a kid.

You know, having fun. He said movies
were like a big toy train set.

He got paid to...

Play and have fun.

Something was wrong here.

I was fairly sure she was telling the
truth, and I still didn't believe her.

had all the right emotions. She was
saying the right things. But she was

something out. I just didn't know what.

I just can't believe that Peter was
doing anything wrong.

It had to have been some random crazy
person that did this.

So he left early Wednesday.

Yes, he was taking off Thursday.

He... errands, stuff for the house.

Well, we'll need a copy of his schedule.

Uh, phone logs.

Get those for you. Could we do this some
other time, please?

One more thing.

Was he living, how do I put it, above
his means?

Lately, he... His family was sending him
money for a while. I think that they

stopped. They own restaurants somewhere
in Indiana.

They wanted him home, you know, for the
family business.

I guess he spent more than he made.

Doesn't everyone?

His jag has completely disappeared.

A young detective stole it, put it in
his garage.

I got to admit, a convertible XK8.

So he sent his sister flowers. He liked
organic groceries.

He went fishing at least once a month.
Everything that he did is in here except

for what he did yesterday.

Why'd they cut his throat?

To kill him.

Making movies, it's not exactly a
dangerous business.

Well, they don't kill you for being late
on your cable bill either. Not yet.

3 or 5 p .m. week ago Friday, cell phone
call from Alan R. Brewster.

Rap feed.

Mr. Brewster did some time in state
prison and nine months in Lewisburg.

Brewster, B -Dog.

I'm missing your canine reference.

B -Dog was the biggest thing in rap
before he got busted. Did Mr. Brewster

away on a drug charge?

Scheduled to narcotics and Title 18 U
.S. Code, whatever that is. Yeah.

Let's go see if Mr. Dog's kennel's open
late.

Title 18 U .S. Code.

I embezzled a few dollars from a record
company.

You had to tend to go after that.

Yeah, I was young, broke, and stupid. No
way to go through life.

If he don't get his time, never gonna do
it no more.

What about your investment in Mr. Holt's
movie?

You're not thinking I had anything to do
with what happened to the brother.

Oh, I'm black, I'm a rapper, so I'm
Tupac keeping bad company?

Look at here, baby.

I'm a businessman, and that was
business.

You ever meet his partner, Jesse Ross?

I ain't got nothing to hide, baby. Ain't
got nothing to hide.

Well, you sure about that?

This case is marked P .H.

Slow your roll, baby. This belongs to B.

Dogg. It's a pawn pilot.

Top of the line. P .H., Peter Holtz.
Looky here, Cagney Lacey.

You got it all wrong, baby. He was into
me for a few hundred.

Hey, the market hurt us all.

So he gave it to me to settle up.

Show us.

Forgot to give me the code.

The few hundred. That would be for...

I scored him some naked tickets. They're
so close, Shaq sweats right on you.

Look at you. You need me to hook you up.
Well, keep it in mind.

We're hoping you have a good alibi for
yesterday afternoon.

Look.

You know Detective Tom DeMonaco?

Five -nine.

Black hair. No, six to be blonde, ex
-Navy SEAL.

Damn. Look at you.

This ain't gonna go too good on the
streets.

I hope you brothers can keep this to
yourselves.

We'll try.

I was with them all day.

Pointed out some dealers for them.
They're an LAPD informant.

They did me some favors, so I'm doing
them one in return.

Is your brother taking that?

You think it'll hold? Absolutely.

It doesn't give DeMonaco's name unless
it pays.

What's wrong with this town?

Ex -convict, ex -rapper, police
informant.

You're going to make movies now, too?

L .A. is like the Foreign Legion. You
come in with one identity. If you can

survive, you get out with a whole new
one.

Well, maybe we can get something off the
Palm Pilot.

It's business partner Holt.

It's Jesse Ross.

He's bothering me.

I got a little bothered myself.

He's not your type.

She was genuinely upset.

I think she likes the guy, and I think
she sort of told us the truth.

So, what's bothering you?

I don't know. That's what's bothering
me.

On our way.

They found a Jag.

Call SID.

Have him pounced on the flapper.

I don't see blood.

Look where the seat is.

Right. Too close to the wheel. The level
of drove this car is no more than 5 .3,

5 .4 tops. Almost 6 .3.

I'm betting someone drove him to meet
his killer.

Palm Pilot, computer, cell phone. I can
break any passcode in town.

Remind me to cancel my alarm code. Pulse
calendar.

3 p .m., Thursday, coffee.

Neil's on Ventura.

Ventura. That's where he found his car.

There's no Neil's anything on Ventura,
but I pulled business licenses.

Melody Coffee Shop owned by Neil
Swanson.

Hey, Joe.

3 p .m., coffee, Neil's.

Then 5 p .m., Jesse.

Drinks at the Four Seasons.

5 o 'clock, Thursday.

I forgot about it. I'm sorry.

Peter asked me to go. I said no.

Why is that?

Well, it's the kind of thing that I'm
very bad at.

What was he? He was a dentist from
Encino, wanted to invest.

Real smart, liked Peter a lot.

Just not really good with those people,
and Peter was better at it. Sounds like

he was a decent guy.

He was.

He had that small -town kid thing going
for him. He liked to look at the stars

and the sidewalk on Hollywood Boulevard.

It was tacky, but he loved it.

See, that's our problem.

Why would someone so nice and decent end
up brutally killed?

as mystified as you are. Are you?

What do you mean?

I mean sometimes we find ourselves in
unexpected places.

Things happen we don't plan on.

I think that's what happened here.

And I'm thinking maybe you know why.

I have no idea what you're talking
about.

I lost a very good friend and I hope you
catch the people who did it.

So you own this place? You recognize
this man?

Yeah. Um, Paul.

Peter. Yeah, right. Peter, yeah.

He used to come in here when he lived in
the neighborhood like two, three years

ago. Is he recently?

No, but I remember him because he used
to give me passes for screenings. That's

a good guy.

What's this all about?

Were you working Thursday afternoon?

We think he was supposed to meet someone
here.

Ah, he came in, he would have said hi.

Uh, Lisa.

He's really cute.

Was he in here on Thursday?

No, I don't think so.

I remember him.

They probably snatched him right off the
street. Sounds like he was fed up.

What'd you get from Ross? Scared.

Of? Whoever killed Holtz. Guys, I got
into Holtz's email.

Dinner appointment confirmed for 8 p .m.
the day he was killed. A Richard

Atkins. The Richard Atkins?

Your victim made movies?

That's a good bet.

Help? Atkins used to be a producer.

Thought you weren't into that.

In the 70s, he made big films. In the
80s, he made one about prison life.

Involuntary manslaughter, drunk driving.

Did two years.

It's terrible, my God. It's dreadful.

So you were friends?

Sort of.

Not really. He was just a kid. He was
trying to raise money for my next

It's going to be the next horror movie
slash musical.

If I can find the financing.

Don't the posters usually come after the
movie?

No.

Not when you're Richard Atkins and it's
your comeback.

What kind of people was Mr. Holt raising
money from?

You're not going to watch, Richard.
We're going shopping. Ladies, Richard is

busy with the nice detectives.

Sorry.

So you think Peter was murdered over
money?

It's been known to happen.

Well, truthfully, I have no idea where
the money came from.

There's $300 ,000 plus in the bank. It's
happy.

I'm happy.

$300 ,000, it's hard to believe you
don't know where it came from.

It's from a doctor in Omaha.

Fine. It's from a guy with black glasses
and a thick neck. Also fine. I'm fairly

sure it's not from the Teamsters now
that the elder Mr.

Hoffa is no longer with us.

Did you know his partner, Jessie Roth?

Yeah, I saw her picture in the trades
from time to time. She's one of those

hangers -on who thinks she's a part of
the scene.

A thousand of them. Holt.

The kid comes into town. He looks up my
number. He calls me, invites me out to

lunch. He thinks I'm still famous.

I was.

We'll assume you can prove where you
were on Thursday afternoon.

I was with my lovely lady.

I got the credit card receipts to prove
it.

Throat slit, extremely sharp blade, just
short of a surgical knife.

A doctor?

Anything's possible, especially since it
didn't kill him.

Run that by me again.

It was torture.

A cut for maximum pain without bleeding
them out too fast. See? They didn't even

touch his jugular. Well, it did kill
him.

Blunt trauma to the head.

What about the blunt trauma to the legs?

They didn't hit the legs. They shot him.

What?

Once in each knee.

Oh, yeah.

I didn't even realize it at first. Not
until we took off his clothes.

Send those to firearms, please. And call
S .I .D. and tell them to go back and

sit for casing.

You were right.

But I've been flitting it through. They
want him to talk.

They didn't care if he talked and they
wanted to send a message.

Or they were just brutal to tell about
it? All of the above.

Who are you calling?

Gomez.

Organized crime.

Gunshots to the knees could be IRA
Columbians, but cutting the throat

performed so he would feel, don't tell
me, lots of pain and fear without

bleeding to death.

That means something.

No. It means one thing.

In the world of organized crime, we have
our favorites.

These savages.

Armenians.

Slit throat, bullets to the knees,
that's their M .O. They came off the

killing.

XKGB, special forces, mercenaries.

Can't help us find one who might be in
the motion picture business.

Two years I've tried to get a guy on the
inside.

That ain't gonna happen.

Point is, is that they don't kill for
money. They do it to make a point.

The point being that they can kill you.

No, not their M .O.

Say they want something, you don't give
it to them, they don't kill you. They

kill your mother, father, son, daughter.

Then you get the message, and you give
them what they want.

Armenians. Why would Holt know those
kind of gangsters? My guess is he didn't

know who they were when he met them.

Holt's bank records, credit card
statement.

Get in the others.

And your victim pulled the best trick in
the book. He came back from the dead,

except now he's a young woman.

Who's she?

Two hours ago, a corner of Laurel and
Sunset, she tried to withdraw $500 from

ATM. Tried to withdraw?

Using Peter Holt's card and his account.

It's already blocked.

Well, even with a wig, this is no Jesse
Ross.

I feel a connection here.

You do?

For what?

ATM machine.

Bank card. She knew the code. She had
this bank card. She was in bed with him.

Friday.

What?

We were with the guy this morning.

All right, on the way.

Whoever played Holtzbrod, they're making
a habit of it.

Looks like Richard Atkins won't be
making his horror movie slash musical.

Guy like him, it might have been good.

Hey, guys.

Deja vu all over again.

Lit throat.

The Armenian special.

Bullet to the knees.

I missed that the first time.

We did, too.

Security system wires cut. The gate, the
house, all of them.

What?

They're still sending a message.

And I think we know who they're sending
it to.

He's not returning their calls.

I don't know what this has to do with
me.

All due respect, I think you do.

I've never met Mr. Atkins.

Miss Roth.

Jesse. Jesse.

Listen, I don't want to be insulting or
anything, but in your business, Mr.

Atkins was more important than you. He
was famous. You weren't.

They killed him because they wanted to
show exactly what they could do.

You have a nice voice.

Very strong, soft.

You know, we got a word for what you're
doing. It's called denial.

You're pretending none of this is
happening.

Maybe you feel, I don't know, protected
because you're part of Hollywood or

you're running the right circles.

What sort of Mr. Atkins?

I'm sorry.

Why are you saying these things?

I'm trying to get through to you.

They're going to kill you unless you
help us stop them.

You're a nice man.

Let me help you.

I'll put you someplace where they can't
touch you. Whatever you've done, however

you're involved, I can help get you out
of this.

You said you wanted to get through to
me, and you did, okay?

Thank you for coming.

Well, why don't you call me back and ask
for Detective Frank Smith?

Yeah, that would be great.

Hey, we found a girl from the ATM.

What could you give me, the address?

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Julie Davis.

Sweets are just out at Sunset.

Just a second, please.

How'd you get here so quickly?

You're not a cab driver? Julie Davis,
LAPD. I'm Detective Friday, my partner,

Detective Smith.

Oh, um, Julie's not here right now.

Should I call her?

Yeah.

She tried to withdraw money from an ATM
this afternoon?

It's not what you think.

What do you think of felony?

I was freaked out. I had to get out of
here.

How long were you seeing Mr. Holt?

We grew up together in Indiana.

I followed him out here, and we were
having some problems, and while... He

so you don't have to worry about
breaking up with him.

I was scared.

Wouldn't you be?

Look. I don't know who he was meeting on
Thursday.

I drove him because my car was in the
shop and we both had to go to the

You dropped him off and you walked ten
miles back to your apartment.

No, I was meeting a girlfriend.

She came over from Studio City and met
us.

Peter went to his meeting. We went and
hung out at the Galleria. You weren't at

all concerned when you didn't hear from
Mr. Holt.

We had an argument, okay?

Miss Davis.

Julie.

You're not telling the truth.

Your boyfriend was dead one day before
you decided to run. You saw on the news

that Richard Atkins was murdered and you
knew that he was a friend of Mr.

Holt's. We can't help you unless you're
truthful.

I yelled at him in the car.

I told him that he was a Hollywood star.
snob and i was good enough growing up

and now i wasn't he said no he was in
trouble

and it's my fault i introduced him to

them julie introduced him to who the

only one i know is anatoly who happens
to be armenian i bet

Peter was afraid of them, and I saw on
TV Peter's friend Richard, and I

God Almighty, they're killing everyone.

The Armenians had their own version of
the Hollywood ethic.

It was not enough for them to succeed.

Everyone else had to die.

One of the interesting things about
police work is that killers often don't

the part.

That was not the case with Anatoly
Darin.

Your girlfriend sent you?

Girlfriend? Little Judy.

That's how I work in Peter's car.

Why would she send you to me?

I don't know who's going to hurt Peter.

Fantastic guy.

Everyone seems to think so.

Oh, yeah.

You don't think I have anything to do
with it, do you? Some people think Mr.

Holt was afraid of you.

Little Judy said that?

Oh, of course.

I've got an accent, so I'm probably a
godfather of a big Armenian mafia. You

should arrest me immediately, by all
means, man.

Smart cops, huh?

You think if I run Armenian mafia, I
have this greasy job?

Have I ever committed a crime?

Do I have a record?

Not yet.

Did you ever discuss business with Mr.
Holt? His family has restaurants in

middle America.

My mother has a bakery.

So, uh...

We cry over small businesses fighting to
stay alive.

Thursday afternoon.

Anybody's got a dozen Armenian
witnesses.

No good thing I don't. Why's that?

Because he wouldn't believe in Armenian.

He believed Hollywood people.

I give back cards till nine o 'clock. I
can give you a lift of clients.

So go find another innocent citizen to
arrest.

Tell Gomez to keep looking.

Yeah, everywhere.

Clean.

Green card is through his mother. She's
clean, too. Not even a parking ticket.

I'm believing Julie Davis.

His alibi till 9 is meaningless.

Gomez says no Anatoly, no Darian, no
nothing.

Anatoly's not the end, he's the
beginning. Call Gomez back. Starting

want SIS on Anatoly 24 -7.

These are a lot of numbers, Gil.

Bank statements tell a story.

Show me the money.

Well, this is follow the money.

Where's Viking Corporate?

Um... Put it here somewhere.

Would you pay attention, please, and
find the damn file? Joe, I don't get

okay? I don't balance my own checkbook.

Look, we gotta get these ducks lined up
and see what's missing.

What are you talking about, ducks? I
mean, what do these ducks look like?

There's Viking Corporate.

We need a CPA, because I don't even know
what we're looking for.

This is exactly what we need to know.
You read this?

No, I don't read Egyptian.

When do you pay your rent?

My rent?

The first of every month.

Last six months, Viking Films paid its
rent late.

Every month.

October 13th, November 19th, December
and January didn't get paid till

What does that tell you?

They don't have any money. You get a
duck. Here's another.

The movie account, Slasher, the one Holt
wanted to make.

Withdrawals every month, same time as
they pay the rent. 18 grand, 22 grand.

get it?

Honestly, um... It's Baby and Ron. They
cook the books.

So they take money to make a movie, but
they don't make the movie. They spend

the money on rent.

You're the Armenian.

You give Jesse and Hole all kinds of
money. They spend the money. They can't

it back.

What do you do?

Start cutting people's throats.

Now you got all the ducks lined up in a
row.

Joe, you made my week. SIS call. They
got your boy, Anatoly.

Maybe he changed his mind.

They heard him say he'll make a buy,
he'll make it.

5 King 1 to 4 King 16.

16 go.

Primary is pulling up to the location
now.

$100 ,000 front end in a low -rent
neighborhood.

Most amazing thing was how dumb a smart
thug could be.

Backup ready, we'll take him.

He missed two tails on him the whole way
from Brentwood to Van Nuys.

When he gets a dope.

When the door closes.

No!

No!

No!

Move, buddy, or I'll blow your head off!

You're under arrest for a narcotics
violation.

Smells like a friend likes ecstasy. 15
to 20 grand on this beat.

All right.

You were such a good citizen. I think
you're going to lose your green card

this.

This is your life, Darian.

You pay attention.

We're talking federal charges.

And the feds hate to lose even more than
we do. Now, you listen to me. Your

dealer gave it up. He copped a plea.

And if we didn't need you, believe me,
you wouldn't get one.

How much?

You did not just offer us money.

How much years?

Minimum around ten.

If you put me in jail, they'll kill me.

You're friends? I agree.

Witness protection.

What? What what?

Hey.

Now that's the last warning you're gonna
get from me.

Federal government.

Witness protection.

You give me no identity.

I name who you want.

Give me a phone. I need to call my
lawyer. You sit right there.

Don't even move.

Let's talk to organized crime.

I can't tell you how good this feels.

Yeah. The assistant U .S. attorney?

Tell her it's Gomez, organized crime
unit LAPD. I need her now to authorize a

deal.

Absolutely. I understand.

Yes, sir. Difficult decision.

I'm sorry to bother you.

Thanks.

You said no.

No? What is this crap?

You promised that if we had a solid... I
came down here to listen.

Don't yell at me.

Whatever.

Excuse me. Is this about manners?

We have two dead bodies, a lunatic
Armenian who wants to make a deal, and a

woman that could be killed at any
second.

I interrupted the United States
Attorney.

at a dinner party.

Oh, to hell with this. I'm gonna get a
warrant for Anatoly's garage.

Hey, Joe.

I'll get him to meet you there. Maybe
you should keep all the money.

Okay.

I'll admit we had financial problems in
the movie business. It's like, you know,

the common cold.

You've got the flu with pneumonia.

Mexico.

You planning a vacation?

I have friends. They have a place in
Cabo.

You know, in situations like these,
there's always a time when someone

starts packing.

Kabul. Beautiful.

So I hear.

And of course, they'll never find you
there.

You ever meet an Armenian gangster?

Simple question.

You ever meet an Armenian gangster?

Detective, if I could tell you anything,
I would. Do you understand?

I'll tell you something.

If I knew a little piece of this, one
thing you knew, one good reason, I'd

you up right now as a material witness.

I'm sorry.

You have to go.

I have to pack. I'm leaving early in the
morning.

My partner got a warrant for Anatoly
Darien's garage, but I couldn't keep my

mind on the search.

I was thinking about Jesse Roth.

I put a stakeout on her in case someone
decided to pay a surprise visit.

I didn't know if it would keep her
alive.

More dope.

Like we need it.

You were expecting a knife with Holt's
blood on it?

I bagged these to check his messages.

Son of a bitch.

What? This guy on the left.

Stan Mackie. We were at the academy
together.

They took his badge away.

Except for Yusuf Forth.

Darian Anatoly.

I did some...

Personal security work for his uncle.
Him.

Carp. Born Carpoyan. Seems to think
somebody wants to kill him. You just did

bodyguard work.

You mean do I break the law?

What? Ride shotgun for drug dealers? No.

Now, what I meant was, do you listen?

End up a witness?

No way.

I got four mouths to feed, Joe. So you
bodyguard?

Yeah. And other stupid things.

Mackey expected us to feel sorry for
him. I didn't.

He was angry at the force, angry at
internal affairs, angry at the world. A

beats up innocent citizens.

He pays the price.

Mackey was lucky he didn't end up in
prison.

These Hollywood killings, they made the
front page of Variety.

Good for business.

People are scared. The phone's been
ringing off the hook.

So, uh, how much do you know about
Anatoly Derry and his uncle?

Less than you, and I'd like to keep it
that way.

Alex Karp. He's never even been
arrested.

Owns a high -end strip joint, Van Nuys.
The Gentleman's Retreat.

Alex Karp was Armenian only by
association.

He'd lived in the United States for 17
years.

From the looks of his club, he'd found a
piece of the American dream.

Pole dancers and lots of money.

Alex Karp, LAPD.

Excuse me.

Gentlemen, please, don't drive no
horses.

Don't stampede.

I'd like to talk to you about Peter
Holt.

I heard you have a problem with my
nephew. I apologize.

He's a total idiot, that boy.

Please.

Anatoly's going away for a long time.

Thank God.

Teach him a lesson.

Prison will be good for him. So you
weren't at all surprised to hear Peter

Holt's name mentioned?

Should I be?

I... Partner in one of his projects. You
don't mind saying how much you

invested?

A quarter million?

Not much.

The woman, Jessica Ross, she runs the
company.

Very beautiful, don't you think?

I suppose so.

She was impressed by my money.

She didn't like me.

Neither do you.

I haven't thought about it one way or
the other.

Peter Holt was killed in a terrible way.

He slit his throat, shot him in the
kneecaps.

How awful.

Sounds like torture.

Thursday, around 2 o 'clock on.

I was with some people in the mayor's
office.

Immigration problem.

There must have been a dozen witnesses.

How long were you there?

7. 7 .30.

Won't cut it.

Where'd you go then?

Here, in my office, several more
witnesses.

My employees.

Your paychecks buy a lot of loyalty.

Oh, they're loyal for many reasons.

You really think Karp did it himself?

For a quarter million, yeah, I think he
did it. I think he did it and liked

doing it.

Do me a favor.

Sign these D79s. I hate paperwork.

I don't want to say it, but it's over.

It's only going to get worse.

How's it going to get worse if it's
already over?

One of these days, Jesse Ross will wind
up dead and will never touch Alex Karp.

Run those downstairs for me, will you?

Hey, Joe.

You okay?

What?

Where are you going? Out.

We've been through this. I can't tell
you anything.

Then I'll tell you something. I've
already told you. Then I'll make it

Sit down.

Jesse, sit down.

It's not about the money anymore. Giving
it back to them won't stop them.

You like horses. You like to gamble?

Sometimes. Long shots, or you like the
front runners?

I always bet that's your thing.

It gets you like Vegas.

I got no problem with the casinos. I
just don't like what they do to the

in them.

Well, a dreamer's not your style.

Well, it's not so much their dream, and
it's that they're desperate.

And we both know desperate people can do
desperate things.

Where are we going?

What are we doing here?

I want to show you something.

What?

Open it.

I get it.

Some kind of shock therapy. You want me
to see my friend's body?

That's really very cruel.

Open the drawer.

This isn't about me, my living or dying.
This is about you ending your case.

That's real.

They have these everywhere.

You hide in Cabo, Paris, middle of
nowhere. They have these.

I was pulling into the driveway Thursday
night.

There was a big limo. The man had a gun.

I said, get in.

The driver called him Uncle Alex.

I know him.

I told him I was selling the house. I
was selling everything they would get

their money back.

I didn't say anything. They drove up to
my hall and then they...

They took Peter out of the trunk.

He was still alive.

They made me watch.

They made me watch.

Please stop. I made them.

I told them I'd get them the money. And
they said... They said, of course you

will. That's why we're killing him and
not you.

Oh, God.

Oh, God, Peter. Oh, my God.

All right, here's how it works.

We find you a place to live.

We get you a new identity.

We'll figure out where we go from there.

You're a nice guy.

You want to take care of me? That's what
you do. You take care of people.

I'm not the kind of person who wants to
be taken care of. I just never was.

Jesse Ross was dead right about me. I
did want to take care of people.

It was my job.

Did I really take care of her?

Unless one day she turned up dead, I'd
never know.
