00:09:47,787 --> 00:09:49,755
He's been
consulting the Bible about it.

156
00:09:51,023 --> 00:09:53,355
Yeah. No, my cousin
Gina's husband, Ralph,

157
00:09:53,426 --> 00:09:56,953
helps out Lombard's gardener
and Ralph told me personally.

158
00:09:57,563 --> 00:09:59,428
Lombard
don't wanna work with us.

159
00:09:59,498 --> 00:10:01,329
He obviously thinks
we're a couple of jerks.

160
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,868
Well, that's why we gotta
work on this matter ourselves.

161
00:10:03,936 --> 00:10:05,233
On our own.

162
00:10:05,304 --> 00:10:09,832
We get the creeps
responsible and, bing, we have Lombard's attention.

163
00:10:09,909 --> 00:10:12,776
Ah, Eugene,
they're probably just a bunch a neighborhood kids.

164
00:10:12,845 --> 00:10:15,643
The butler'll
give us $5 and a ride right down the driveway.

165
00:10:15,715 --> 00:10:17,342
So what if it's kids,
man?

166
00:10:17,416 --> 00:10:20,647
It's a foot in the door.
We get these creeps responsible,

167
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:21,846
then we get
to Mr. Lombard.

168
00:10:21,921 --> 00:10:24,617
We say, "Mr. Lombard,
here's a couple of guys

169
00:10:24,690 --> 00:10:26,954
"who took care of a very
unpleasant matter for you.

170
00:10:27,026 --> 00:10:30,086
"A couple
of guys who would like to be remembered

171
00:10:30,162 --> 00:10:33,427
"should they need
a good word from a man of your high caliber."

172
00:10:33,532 --> 00:10:36,399
Mick,
that's how influence works.

173
00:10:36,469 --> 00:10:38,494
One hand washes the other.

174
00:10:39,238 --> 00:10:41,729
Eugene,
you don't understand.

175
00:10:41,807 --> 00:10:44,241
Lombard
ain't even active in the outfit anymore.

176
00:10:44,310 --> 00:10:46,608
He don't even handle
half the action in North Jersey.

177
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,078
Tony Martine does.

178
00:10:48,147 --> 00:10:50,115
Lombard's a born-again
Christian.

179
00:10:50,182 --> 00:10:53,913
Listen to yourself.
Will you listen to yourself?

180
00:10:55,054 --> 00:10:58,512
Suppose you were
one of the top hats in the organization,

181
00:10:58,591 --> 00:11:01,458
head of your own family,
and the State Department

182
00:11:01,527 --> 00:11:04,894
and Justice Department
was always breathing down your neck.

183
00:11:04,964 --> 00:11:06,898
Wouldn't you like
to convince everybody

184
00:11:06,966 --> 00:11:10,231
that you was
retired, religious,

185
00:11:10,670 --> 00:11:12,399
out of the rackets?

186
00:11:13,205 --> 00:11:15,002
Yeah.
Yeah.

187
00:11:15,374 --> 00:11:17,103
I'll get us
a couple of beers.

188
00:11:22,114 --> 00:11:24,912
You said to
watch for anything weird happening up by Devon Road

189
00:11:24,984 --> 00:11:27,043
where Mr. Lombard lives,
right?

190
00:11:27,119 --> 00:11:28,108
EUGENE: Yeah.

191
00:11:28,187 --> 00:11:31,486
Well, just the other day,
I saw some car cruisin' by there twice

192
00:11:31,557 --> 00:11:33,422
when I was
walking home from school.

193
00:11:33,492 --> 00:11:35,255
Here. Got his
license number.

194
00:11:35,327 --> 00:11:39,263
Come on, kid, I mean,
anybody can write down a license plate's number.

195
00:11:39,331 --> 00:11:42,767
Now, what we're lookin' for
is a punk on a tricycle, okay?

196
00:11:42,835 --> 00:11:44,769
Pennsylvania plates
he gives us.

197
00:11:44,837 --> 00:11:47,499
You guys said anything.
Now, I gave you something.

198
00:11:47,573 --> 00:11:49,700
I want my money
just like you promised.

199
00:11:49,775 --> 00:11:51,743
All right, all right.
But forget the money.

200
00:11:51,811 --> 00:11:54,075
Give me the keys, Mick.
Come on, kid.

201
00:11:54,246 --> 00:11:56,043
I got something
better than money.

202
00:11:57,750 --> 00:12:00,241
Wait till you see it.
Here you go.

203
00:12:04,123 --> 00:12:06,284
Here you go, kid.
That's pure rayon.

204
00:12:06,358 --> 00:12:08,121
Last you a lifetime.

205
00:12:08,260 --> 00:12:09,352
Ugh!

206
00:12:11,897 --> 00:12:13,524
Where'd you get
all those, anyway?

207
00:12:13,599 --> 00:12:18,127
Well, uh, we're sort of
the distributor for this area.

208
00:12:20,473 --> 00:12:23,465
It's been over four hours.

209
00:12:23,609 --> 00:12:25,236
I don't know
what the holdup is,

210
00:12:25,311 --> 00:12:26,972
but this place
is really jammed.

211
00:12:27,046 --> 00:12:29,139
<i>RENEE: Well,</i>
<i>please keep in</i> <i>touch, Mr. Rockford.</i>

212
00:12:29,215 --> 00:12:31,046
My father
goes to bed early.

213
00:12:31,117 --> 00:12:33,517
It's going to be
hard enough to get him to talk to you as it is.

214
00:12:34,453 --> 00:12:36,512
Yeah, well,
I'm trying to get clear of this place

215
00:12:36,589 --> 00:12:38,921
just as fast as
I can, Miss Lombard.

216
00:12:38,991 --> 00:12:42,256
Oh, look,
here comes somebody I might get some answers from.

217
00:12:42,328 --> 00:12:43,886
I'll be talking to you.

218
00:12:45,564 --> 00:12:47,964
Hey, Officer? Officer,
my name is Jim Rockford.

219
00:12:48,033 --> 00:12:50,433
I've been here
since before 3:00.

220
00:12:50,503 --> 00:12:52,061
Could you tell me
when they're gonna get to me?

221
00:12:52,138 --> 00:12:54,197
The Lieutenant said...

222
00:12:54,273 --> 00:12:56,241
About as much as he did.

223
00:13:09,421 --> 00:13:12,151
Hey, Eugene.
I'm just thinking.

224
00:13:12,424 --> 00:13:14,221
A guy like Lombard,

225
00:13:14,293 --> 00:13:16,158
a guy who's been in
the mob all his life,

226
00:13:16,228 --> 00:13:19,220
a guy who's used to goin'
to the mattresses and stuff like that,

227
00:13:19,298 --> 00:13:21,459
how come a guy like him
is gettin' so jacked up

228
00:13:21,534 --> 00:13:24,594
about
some kids throwin' dead pets on his lawn?

229
00:13:24,870 --> 00:13:26,804
I don't see your point.

230
00:13:26,939 --> 00:13:29,203
Well, we keep thinking
it's just kids.

231
00:13:29,275 --> 00:13:31,209
Maybe Lombard knows
it's not.

232
00:13:31,277 --> 00:13:33,404
Maybe that's why
he's scared.

233
00:13:34,079 --> 00:13:36,445
You know.
You know what the mob does.

234
00:13:36,515 --> 00:13:38,608
Like, they send warnings.

235
00:13:38,684 --> 00:13:41,448
Dead fish wrapped
in newspaper,

236
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,181
a severed finger.

237
00:13:45,491 --> 00:13:49,018
You know, Mick,
you're always lookin' at things negative.

238
00:13:50,663 --> 00:13:51,891
(EXHALES)

239
00:13:51,964 --> 00:13:54,489
You know, Mick,
I'm thinking here.

240
00:13:54,834 --> 00:13:57,234
What are we bustin'
our humps for here?

241
00:13:57,303 --> 00:13:59,999
I mean, tomorrow we could
check back with those kids,

242
00:14:00,072 --> 00:14:02,836
probably get
a line on this mook who's throwin' the dead animals,

243
00:14:02,908 --> 00:14:05,399
and this way,
we don't miss Carson.

244
00:14:06,478 --> 00:14:07,536
Yeah.
Yeah?

245
00:14:07,613 --> 00:14:08,637
Let's go.

246
00:14:08,714 --> 00:14:11,182
Walt a minute,
get down, get down.

247
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:12,908
(SHUSHING) Listen.

248
00:14:13,085 --> 00:14:14,882
They killed their motor.

249
00:14:15,554 --> 00:14:16,543
(GUN COCKING)

250
00:14:16,622 --> 00:14:19,386
Get down.
I heard someone cock a shotgun.

251
00:14:29,468 --> 00:14:32,528
Hey,
did you see it? He flung a chicken.

252
00:14:32,605 --> 00:14:34,368
Hey, you!
Hey, kid!

253
00:14:42,915 --> 00:14:45,145
It's all over for you,
Jack.

254
00:14:45,784 --> 00:14:47,877
When my dad finds out
about this,

255
00:14:47,953 --> 00:14:50,148
you creeps'll be worse
off than those chickens.

256
00:14:50,222 --> 00:14:52,554
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
we're shaking all over.

257
00:14:52,625 --> 00:14:56,721
Come on, scungille.
You got an appointment with the man on the hill.

258
00:14:58,931 --> 00:15:00,193
EUGENE:
You only got a few minutes, ace.

259
00:15:00,266 --> 00:15:01,790
So you better
start talking.

260
00:15:01,867 --> 00:15:03,300
Is it you, or
you got a partner?

261
00:15:03,369 --> 00:15:04,393
What's your name?

262
00:15:04,470 --> 00:15:06,938
Who supplies you
with the chickens?

263
00:15:07,406 --> 00:15:09,738
Mr. Lombard
will be down shortly.

264
00:15:10,042 --> 00:15:11,031
Right.

265
00:15:11,110 --> 00:15:14,341
Say, Mick? Did you
notice the old-time fireman's outfit?

266
00:15:14,413 --> 00:15:16,904
Did
Mr. Rockford call again while I was at the gym?

267
00:15:16,982 --> 00:15:18,279
Oh, yes, miss, he did.

268
00:15:18,350 --> 00:15:20,978
It appears
that he's going to be quite late now.

269
00:15:21,053 --> 00:15:25,149
Apparently, the computer found
some unpaid traffic violations

270
00:15:25,224 --> 00:15:28,682
in California
and now he has to straighten all that out.

271
00:15:29,395 --> 00:15:30,953
Oh, excuse me.

272
00:15:31,764 --> 00:15:34,528
Are you waiting to see
my father or something?

273
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,330
Yeah. Matter of fact.
I'm Mickey Long and this is Eugene...

274
00:15:37,403 --> 00:15:39,132
EUGENE:
Hey, Mickey, do you mind?

275
00:15:39,204 --> 00:15:41,832
The thing is, Miss Lombard,
you see, we're from down Newark.

276
00:15:41,907 --> 00:15:46,071
And we caught
this kid throwing a chicken carcass onto your property.

277
00:15:46,979 --> 00:15:49,914
Figure he's the one been
causing your problems these last weeks.

278
00:15:49,982 --> 00:15:52,974
Oh,
is that right? What's your name?

279
00:15:53,085 --> 00:15:54,780
MICKEY:
You're not gonna get nothin' out of him.

280
00:15:54,853 --> 00:15:56,218
He's a professional
hard guy.

281
00:15:56,288 --> 00:15:57,778
He's a scungille.

282
00:15:57,856 --> 00:16:01,519
You damn well
better start talking, buster, because you're in big trouble.

283
00:16:01,593 --> 00:16:03,288
LOMBARD: Renee!

284
00:16:04,697 --> 00:16:06,221
That's enough.

285
00:16:08,634 --> 00:16:12,001
And I've told you about
using profanity in this house.

286
00:16:12,705 --> 00:16:14,138
Good evening,
Mr. Lombard.

287
00:16:14,206 --> 00:16:15,605
I'm Mickey Long
and this is Eugene...

288
00:16:15,674 --> 00:16:16,902
Mickey, you mind?

289
00:16:16,976 --> 00:16:19,501
Mr. Lombard,
it's an honor to be under your roof.

290
00:16:19,578 --> 00:16:22,069
Me and
my associate, we're pleased...

291
00:16:22,314 --> 00:16:26,614
Son, have I caused you
any pain that I'm not aware of?

292
00:16:26,952 --> 00:16:28,283
Go rotate on it.

293
00:16:28,387 --> 00:16:31,083
This kid's gonna leave here
with his bicycle seat in his mouth.

294
00:16:31,156 --> 00:16:34,592
Well, maybe somebody else
egged you on to do this, huh?

295
00:16:34,827 --> 00:16:36,727
What's your name?

296
00:16:37,563 --> 00:16:39,155
Mr. Lombard,

297
00:16:39,631 --> 00:16:41,223
if you like,
me and my associate,

298
00:16:41,300 --> 00:16:42,733
we'll take
this little dip outside

299
00:16:42,801 --> 00:16:44,701
and introduce his
head to the cement.

300
00:16:44,770 --> 00:16:48,604
No, thanks.
But I do want to thank you two fellows

301
00:16:48,674 --> 00:16:50,801
for bringing
this young man to my attention.

302
00:16:50,909 --> 00:16:52,103
I won't forget it.

303
00:16:52,177 --> 00:16:56,136
Personally,
Daddy, I think this little miscreant

304
00:16:56,215 --> 00:16:58,080
could use some
knocking around.

305
00:16:58,150 --> 00:17:02,109
No, no, no, no, no, no.
This young man knows what he did.

306
00:17:02,187 --> 00:17:04,781
His punishment
is between him and his God.

307
00:17:04,857 --> 00:17:07,917
Daddy! Then I'm sorry.

308
00:17:08,394 --> 00:17:11,363
I don't see
why you were so upset to begin with.

309
00:17:12,698 --> 00:17:15,132
Are you through with me,
you old geek?

310
00:17:15,467 --> 00:17:18,300
Or you got
somethin' else you want to say?

311
00:17:18,437 --> 00:17:20,428
Yes, my friend, I do.

312
00:17:20,506 --> 00:17:21,768
Tell him.
Tell him, Mr. Lombard.

313
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,774
Tell him
what happens to creeps like him.

314
00:17:23,842 --> 00:17:27,073
"But these, like
unreasoning animals

315
00:17:27,346 --> 00:17:31,077

creatures of instinct to be captured and killed

Now, you come
along with me.

323

I wanna show you.

what you were sayin'

325
00:17:52,438 --> 00:17:54,235
about showing
your appreciation for me and Eugene...

326
00:17:54,306 --> 00:17:56,831

Yeah, come along. Come along with me.

338
00:18:34,379 --> 00:18:38,645
(CHUCKLING) Well, Mr. Lombard,
thanks, but this isn't what we had in mind.

339
00:18:38,717 --> 00:18:42,209
And now for you,
young fella, tickets for you and a guest,

340
00:18:42,754 --> 00:18:44,415

342
00:18:48,827 --> 00:18:51,159
And now, thanks
for stopping by, fellas.

343
00:18:51,363 --> 00:18:55,800
Mr. Lombard, Mickey and
I, we appreciate this,

344
00:18:55,868 --> 00:18:57,426
really, honest.

345
00:18:57,503 --> 00:18:59,471
But, like,
what we had in mind

346
00:18:59,538 --> 00:19:03,804
was, like, you know,
one hand washes the other.

347
00:19:04,376 --> 00:19:05,400
What?

348
00:19:05,477 --> 00:19:07,672
Well, you know.
Like, we know this guy

349
00:19:07,746 --> 00:19:09,873
whose newsstand keeps
getting knocked over.

350
00:19:09,948 --> 00:19:11,848
Now, maybe since
you've seen how we work,

351
00:19:11,917 --> 00:19:13,908
maybe you can get
some of your people to put the word out

352
00:19:13,986 --> 00:19:15,351
that if it ever
happens again,

353
00:19:15,420 --> 00:19:18,981
somebody's gonna get pensioned
off to the bottom of the Passaic River.

354
00:19:19,057 --> 00:19:21,389
Oh, I see.

355
00:19:21,660 --> 00:19:22,957
You two want to hustle.

356
00:19:23,028 --> 00:19:24,120
Yeah.
Yeah.

357
00:19:24,196 --> 00:19:25,458
You want to
deal your way up.

358
00:19:25,531 --> 00:19:27,021
Right.
Right.

359
00:19:27,099 --> 00:19:28,999
I understand ambition.

360
00:19:30,235 --> 00:19:32,066
But so does the Lord.

361
00:19:32,538 --> 00:19:34,165
I don't wield
power, anymore.

362
00:19:34,239 --> 00:19:36,400
He wields his
power over me.

363
00:19:39,711 --> 00:19:40,973
A blow off.

364
00:19:41,046 --> 00:19:43,310
A total,
complete blow off.

365
00:19:45,651 --> 00:19:47,642
I don't believe it, man.

366
00:19:48,287 --> 00:19:50,221
I mean, some guys,
you know, they fall in a sewer,

367
00:19:50,289 --> 00:19:53,190
they come out with
gold watches in each hand.

368
00:19:53,825 --> 00:19:56,453
Me? I work
like a slave

369
00:19:56,528 --> 00:19:58,496
and what do I get?
Nothing.

370
00:20:02,334 --> 00:20:03,926
And then you don't
face up to it?

371
00:20:04,002 --> 00:20:06,630
You come sneaking in the
back door at this hour on a school night?

372
00:20:06,705 --> 00:20:08,900
You listen to me
when I'm talking to you!

373
00:20:08,974 --> 00:20:11,067
Now,
what in the Lord's name made you throw

374
00:20:11,143 --> 00:20:13,008
dead chickens on
Mr. Lombard's lawn?

375
00:20:13,078 --> 00:20:15,808
What are
we raising here, an animal, huh?

376
00:20:15,881 --> 00:20:17,576
You don't like
old man Lombard.

377
00:20:17,649 --> 00:20:20,447
You're the one who's
always saying he's a creep.

378
00:20:20,519 --> 00:20:23,283
I hear you
from the TV room, complaining to Mom.

379
00:20:23,355 --> 00:20:25,550
And now, just 'cause
I don't like him, either,

380
00:20:25,624 --> 00:20:27,319
I get all this
trouble and stuff.

381
00:20:27,392 --> 00:20:30,418
Incredible. You hear that?
Incredible!

382
00:20:30,495 --> 00:20:32,258
You did it for me,
is that what you're saying?

383
00:20:32,331 --> 00:20:34,265
Where? Where does
he learn these things?

384
00:20:34,333 --> 00:20:36,893
Honey,
if you would just stop yelling at him.

385
00:20:36,969 --> 00:20:39,199
Boys grope around
for male role models

386
00:20:39,271 --> 00:20:40,602
and what
their fathers think of them

387
00:20:40,672 --> 00:20:42,162
is especially
important to them.

388
00:20:42,241 --> 00:20:44,937
And so they try,
in their own way, to be rough and tough.

389
00:20:45,010 --> 00:20:47,945
He is 12.
It is an age of transition.

390
00:20:48,013 --> 00:20:49,173
Transition?

391
00:20:49,248 --> 00:20:52,308
He's gonna transition his way
right into military school if he keeps this up.

392
00:20:52,384 --> 00:20:54,215
From now on,
I want him to see that child psychologist

393
00:20:54,286 --> 00:20:56,049
two times a week,
not just on Wednesdays!

394
00:20:56,121 --> 00:20:58,021
He can miss
his drum lessons!

395
00:20:58,090 --> 00:20:59,819
These guys beat me up.

396
00:20:59,891 --> 00:21:02,883
They hit me
with a fungo bat. They punched me around.

397
00:21:02,961 --> 00:21:04,553
I know, I know.
You told me.

398
00:21:04,630 --> 00:21:06,029
Big men
beating up a little kid.

399
00:21:06,098 --> 00:21:08,931
You gave
me their names. I'll look into it.

400
00:21:13,405 --> 00:21:14,702
Anthony.

401
00:21:16,908 --> 00:21:18,205
Anthony.

402
00:21:24,716 --> 00:21:27,378
Anthony, now,
listen to me.

403
00:21:28,253 --> 00:21:30,983
Even if Daddy
doesn't like Mr. Lombard, that's none of your business.

404
00:21:31,056 --> 00:21:33,889
That's Daddy's affair.
You understand that?

405
00:21:34,693 --> 00:21:36,923
(CHUCKLING)
Now, you see what happened, huh?

406
00:21:37,029 --> 00:21:38,792
You put Daddy in
a terrible position.

407
00:21:38,864 --> 00:21:40,195
Very awkward.

408
00:21:45,470 --> 00:21:47,961
Now, go on.
Now, you go on up to bed, hmm?

409
00:21:49,007 --> 00:21:49,996
Go.

410
00:22:06,425 --> 00:22:08,985
Yeah, it's me. Listen,
I've been thinking it over.

411
00:22:09,061 --> 00:22:10,995
This thing
dragged on long enough.

412
00:22:11,063 --> 00:22:12,428
Yeah, that.

413
00:22:13,031 --> 00:22:14,430
Now, listen,
it's upsetting everybody,

414
00:22:14,499 --> 00:22:17,400
my whole family, now.
So I want Lombard hit tonight.

415
00:22:17,469 --> 00:22:18,458
Now.

416
00:22:19,137 --> 00:22:22,197
No,
just a message he can't forget.

417
00:22:22,274 --> 00:22:24,265
And listen, I want you to
track down a couple of guys for me.

418
00:22:24,343 --> 00:22:25,435
They live in Newark.

419
00:22:25,510 --> 00:22:29,640
A Mickey Long and another
comedian named Conigliaro.

420
00:22:29,748 --> 00:22:30,737
Yeah.

421
00:22:39,124 --> 00:22:40,148
Mr. Rockford.

422
00:22:40,225 --> 00:22:41,214
What's left of me.

423
00:22:41,293 --> 00:22:43,227
What happened?
When you called from the police station

424
00:22:43,295 --> 00:22:45,889
you said you'd
be up in an hour. It's almost 1:00.

425
00:22:45,964 --> 00:22:49,127
I went to my hotel
and they let the room go because I was late.

426
00:22:49,201 --> 00:22:52,170
So, I've been spending
an hour or so looking for a vacancy.

427
00:22:52,237 --> 00:22:54,228
No luck.
Oh, how awful.

428
00:22:54,306 --> 00:22:56,968
On top of
everything else that's happened.

429
00:22:57,042 --> 00:22:59,203
Yeah, well,
I'm sorry to put you in this position,

430
00:22:59,277 --> 00:23:01,768
but I don't know
where else to turn.

431
00:23:03,749 --> 00:23:06,684
Would you happen
to have a spare room

432
00:23:06,752 --> 00:23:09,346
that I could use, until I
get a hotel room tomorrow?

433
00:23:09,421 --> 00:23:12,515
Oh, sure.
Don't you have any luggage?

434
00:23:12,591 --> 00:23:16,755
Well, no, no.
You see, the luggage was in the car that was stolen.

435
00:23:16,828 --> 00:23:19,695
I think I'm just gonna
look at it like my dad would, and figure that

436
00:23:19,765 --> 00:23:22,165
whoever stole it needs
it a lot more than I do.

437
00:23:22,234 --> 00:23:24,896
We can certainly
wait until morning to discuss the case.

438
00:23:24,970 --> 00:23:26,665
Have you eaten?
No.

can do to give you

I'm gonna be frank with you,
Renee.

449
00:24:10,749 --> 00:24:12,376
If I'd known about
your father's past life,

450
00:24:12,451 --> 00:24:14,442
I wouldn't have come
here to begin with.

Well, does it
have to matter?

Look, Renee, I'm sorry.
I'd really like to help.

453
00:24:18,557 --> 00:24:20,923
But I have
never taken a case where I knew up front

that I was dealing
with organized crime.

It's too risky
and complicated.

456
00:24:24,296 --> 00:24:26,560
But the
reason I called you instead of someone local

457
00:24:26,631 --> 00:24:29,600
was because of the way
you handled that mess with Gordon and me

when I was at UCLA.

Gordon was just
a sick graduate student.

and have button men on retainer.

00:24:40,212 --> 00:24:43,079
from the Martine family
when I was 15.

463
00:24:43,148 --> 00:24:45,139
Cut off all his contacts.

464
00:24:45,217 --> 00:24:47,549
He's given away most
of his money to charity,

465
00:24:47,619 --> 00:24:49,519
spends
his time working as a lay preacher

466
00:24:49,588 --> 00:24:51,385
with the Interfaith Council.

467
00:24:51,456 --> 00:24:52,889
Renee,

468
00:24:53,925 --> 00:24:56,291
I think
you knew there might be this problem

469
00:24:56,361 --> 00:25:00,821
when you didn't level with me
on the phone about your father's background.

470
00:25:02,934 --> 00:25:04,424
You're right.

471
00:25:05,871 --> 00:25:07,361
I don't blame you
for wanting out.

472
00:25:07,439 --> 00:25:08,838
I can understand
your attitude.

473
00:25:08,907 --> 00:25:09,931
Ah, for what it's worth,

474
00:25:10,008 --> 00:25:12,772
I don't really think that
was an attempt on your father's life.

475
00:25:12,844 --> 00:25:16,507
I mean, you're not
gonna spray the statues

476
00:25:16,581 --> 00:25:19,812
and the juniper bushes
when you want someone dead.

477
00:25:20,252 --> 00:25:22,914
My advice would be to
keep talking to your father.

478
00:25:22,988 --> 00:25:25,388
Find out who's trying
to pressure him and how.

479
00:25:25,457 --> 00:25:27,789
And then get him
to cooperate with the police.

480
00:25:27,859 --> 00:25:31,260
Your relationship with him
is the best weapon you've got.

481
00:25:31,830 --> 00:25:34,822
Well,
you must be exhausted after the day you've had.

482
00:25:34,900 --> 00:25:36,765
I'll have Robertson
make you up a room.

483
00:25:36,835 --> 00:25:39,030
You can
get an early flight out tomorrow.

why don't you go

work off the whole rent?

489
00:25:53,852 --> 00:25:56,650
Eugene,
remember what them radicals used to say

490
00:25:56,721 --> 00:25:59,053
about power
coming out of the end of a gun?

491
00:25:59,157 --> 00:26:00,522
Well,
I guess people are gonna say, with you,

492
00:26:00,592 --> 00:26:02,617
power comes out of
the end of a mop, huh?

493
00:26:02,694 --> 00:26:04,059

Here we spend all
night chasing a kid with a chicken and we miss this.

513

Hey, remember
that license plate? The one the kid gave us?

514
00:26:54,879 --> 00:26:56,369
Pennsylvania plates.
Yeah.

515
00:26:56,448 --> 00:26:59,281
Well, he said that car
was cruising Lombard's house.

516
00:26:59,351 --> 00:27:02,081
Maybe it was a scout car,
or maybe they were the ones.

The ones who did it.
Right, yeah, yeah.

We run that plate, man,

ourselves right back into this.

This isn't
the police station.

524

It's just
the steno pool of the Mayor's Office.

525

How would I run
a license plate?

526
00:27:22,340 --> 00:27:25,468
Well, then,
talk to one of the guys on the Mayor's security staff.

527
00:27:25,543 --> 00:27:28,979
Tell 'em
some car banged your car and took off.

You really

531
00:27:36,421 --> 00:27:39,515
Kathleen,
what do you got against me?

532
00:27:39,991 --> 00:27:42,221
No, seriously. I like you.

533
00:27:42,293 --> 00:27:44,784
I really like you.
I never done nothing to you.

534
00:27:44,863 --> 00:27:46,797
So how come
you don't like me?

535
00:27:46,865 --> 00:27:50,528
You're a hustler, Eugene.
You're insincere.

536
00:27:50,735 --> 00:27:54,831
There's 15 sides
to your face and you talk out of every one of them.

537
00:27:55,173 --> 00:27:57,334
What's so insincere
about sucking up to a guy?

Oh, dear God.

wait a minute, look.

540
00:28:00,378 --> 00:28:01,902
Now, look, Kathleen.

541
00:28:01,980 --> 00:28:05,143
I mean, you are friends
with a couple of guys on the security staff, right?

542
00:28:05,250 --> 00:28:07,218
I mean,
you've even dated a couple of them.

543
00:28:07,285 --> 00:28:10,083
I don't think they'd mind
if you used their names to call the cops.

544
00:28:10,155 --> 00:28:12,385
They would mind
if they found out.

545
00:28:12,490 --> 00:28:15,857
Nah. Like the guy
you told me about? He wouldn't mind.

546
00:28:16,094 --> 00:28:19,257
Who?
George Bizak? Ron Allen? Who?

547
00:28:19,698 --> 00:28:22,462
You know,
look, man, forget it. I guess it's too much to ask.

548
00:28:22,534 --> 00:28:24,661
And quite frankly,
my feelings are hurt here.

549
00:28:24,736 --> 00:28:27,466
No, hey, that's just
the way I feel about it.

550
00:28:30,075 --> 00:28:32,566
Yeah, this
is George Bizak, Mayor's security.

551
00:28:32,644 --> 00:28:35,112
I need a run on
a Pennsylvania tag.

552
00:28:39,084 --> 00:28:40,711
EUGENE:
So you see, Mr. Lombard,

553
00:28:40,785 --> 00:28:43,686
this car is registered
to one Albert Constantine,

554
00:28:43,755 --> 00:28:46,053
88 Drexel Street,
Philadelphia.

555
00:28:46,658 --> 00:28:49,991
Now, Mickey and I,
what we was thinking is maybe this Constantine

556
00:28:50,061 --> 00:28:52,757
is a shooter for
the south-side outfit.

557
00:28:52,831 --> 00:28:56,028
You could find out,
take some action and protect yourself.

558
00:28:56,101 --> 00:28:59,002
"They have eyes,
yet they see not"

559
00:28:59,771 --> 00:29:03,707
Gentlemen, I appreciate you
bringing me this information.

560
00:29:04,409 --> 00:29:07,606
But how am I gonna
tell you this so that you'll really understand it?

561
00:29:07,679 --> 00:29:09,704
I'm finished
with all that.

562
00:29:09,781 --> 00:29:12,875
So I'm not
interested in your information.

563
00:29:12,951 --> 00:29:15,818
Mr. Lombard,
you don't understand. They're gonna kill you.

564
00:29:15,887 --> 00:29:21,018
Mr. Long,
in my past I have done many things that haunt me.

565
00:29:21,092 --> 00:29:24,186
And now, if the good Lord
chooses to visit burdens upon me

566
00:29:24,262 --> 00:29:27,595
for what I've done,
that's the way it's gonna be.

567
00:29:27,899 --> 00:29:31,733
There's nothing I could do
that would change his plan for me.

568
00:29:32,036 --> 00:29:34,504
Now, again,
I thank you.

569
00:29:38,009 --> 00:29:41,968
You know, Mick,
you want my opinion. Faith is a wonderful thing.

570
00:29:42,046 --> 00:29:45,982
But this is Jersey
and that guy's gonna wind up eating a Magnum.

571
00:29:46,484 --> 00:29:48,384
You know what?
I'm thinking to myself.

572
00:29:48,453 --> 00:29:50,353
If this guy's
not interested in covering himself,

573
00:29:50,421 --> 00:29:52,355
there's still people
who care about him.

574
00:29:52,423 --> 00:29:54,323
What, the Martine family?
Mmm-hmm.

575
00:29:54,392 --> 00:29:58,021
Yeah, we get word to 'em
about this guy from Philly, they'll take care of him.

576
00:29:58,096 --> 00:29:59,461
Hey,
I know a guy who runs numbers

577
00:29:59,531 --> 00:30:01,556
for the
Martine family from high school.

578
00:30:01,633 --> 00:30:02,930
He'll pass
the word upstairs.

579
00:30:03,001 --> 00:30:05,834
Sure, and listen.
Tony Martine is Mr. North Jersey.

580
00:30:05,904 --> 00:30:08,395
We could come out of this
in a very strong position.

581
00:30:17,348 --> 00:30:18,576
Oh, hi.
Hi.

582
00:30:18,650 --> 00:30:19,639
Where you off to?

583
00:30:19,717 --> 00:30:22,982
I'm being packed off
to Stockbridge for my own safety.

584
00:30:23,054 --> 00:30:24,919
I dance up there
most of the year.

585
00:30:24,989 --> 00:30:26,854
I was only down
here for a visit.

586
00:30:26,925 --> 00:30:28,893
My father
should leave, too.

587
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,020
But he says
he has too much evangelical work to do.

588
00:30:32,096 --> 00:30:34,030
My plan is to get
up to Massachusetts,

589
00:30:34,098 --> 00:30:38,000
then concoct
some phony crisis in my life to force him up there.

590
00:30:39,604 --> 00:30:42,164
I'm pretty sure this
plan of mine will work.

591
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,209
Thanks. I should have
thought of it before spending $800

592
00:30:45,276 --> 00:30:47,335
to fly a private
detective out here.

593
00:30:47,412 --> 00:30:50,074
Private detective?
Well, you should've told us.

594
00:30:50,148 --> 00:30:52,207
You know, we got
a lot of connections.

595
00:30:52,283 --> 00:30:54,547
We can do things
a PI can't get near.

596
00:30:54,619 --> 00:30:56,211
Yeah, where is
this gumshoe, anyway?

597
00:30:56,287 --> 00:30:58,721

No smoking.

I'm Mickey Long and

Now, Mr. Martine,
we are happy that we can be a help to you

00:32:01,486 --> 00:32:04,250
and that a tragedy
can be diverted.

613
00:32:04,722 --> 00:32:07,020
Also we would
consider it an honor

614
00:32:07,091 --> 00:32:10,151
if you would be
our guest for dinner while we talk this matter.

615
00:32:10,228 --> 00:32:12,492
I'm not sure
if you're familiar with Danny's Chop House

616
00:32:12,563 --> 00:32:13,825
out on Route 22. It's...

617
00:32:13,898 --> 00:32:15,763
Hey, let's hear it.

618
00:32:15,833 --> 00:32:19,826
You have information of
a specific nature for me on the shooting?

619
00:32:27,545 --> 00:32:30,378
See, we figure this
Albert Constantine was in the car

620
00:32:30,448 --> 00:32:32,075
casing Mr. Lombard's house.

621
00:32:32,150 --> 00:32:34,175
Or maybe he
was one of the guys in the car that night.

622
00:32:34,252 --> 00:32:37,449
And what
with Mr. Lombard's former activities,

623
00:32:37,522 --> 00:32:39,217
it's better
you see this than the cops.

624
00:32:39,290 --> 00:32:41,485
Oh, absolutely, absolutely.

625
00:32:41,559 --> 00:32:43,390
The police we don't
need in this. Thank you.

626
00:32:43,461 --> 00:32:46,555
Now, you guys have gone
through a lot of trouble for this.

627
00:32:46,631 --> 00:32:48,326
There must be something
in this that you want.

628
00:32:48,399 --> 00:32:49,730
Am I right?

629
00:32:49,834 --> 00:32:53,065
To be remembered.
Plain and simple.

630
00:32:57,709 --> 00:32:59,506
You know,
you remind me of somebody.

631
00:32:59,577 --> 00:33:00,635
Really?

632
00:33:00,712 --> 00:33:02,509
Yeah. I can't
place the face

633
00:33:02,580 --> 00:33:04,775
but I'll be damned if
you don't remind me of somebody.

634
00:33:04,849 --> 00:33:06,646
Don't he, Eugene?

635
00:33:06,718 --> 00:33:08,151
Could've been
a little kid?

636
00:33:08,219 --> 00:33:09,709
No, I don't think so.

637
00:33:09,787 --> 00:33:11,379
You sure?
About 12 years old,

638
00:33:11,456 --> 00:33:14,118
got knocked of his bike,
slapped around?

639
00:33:17,595 --> 00:33:19,062
Mr. Martine,

640
00:33:20,031 --> 00:33:23,000
let me say first
that we didn't know.

641
00:33:23,601 --> 00:33:25,865
And B, that's some
spunky kid you got.

642
00:33:25,937 --> 00:33:27,029
I tell you
what happened...

643
00:33:27,105 --> 00:33:28,732
Hey, you pinhead!

644
00:33:29,007 --> 00:33:31,441
You guys keep
causing me terrible problems, you know that?

645
00:33:31,509 --> 00:33:34,740
Now, we're gonna pass
on Danny's Chop House.

646
00:33:34,812 --> 00:33:36,609
Because
there's somebody I want you to meet.

647
00:33:36,681 --> 00:33:38,808
This is Albert Constantine.

648
00:33:40,651 --> 00:33:42,812
And this is
Albert Constantine, Jr.

649
00:33:42,887 --> 00:33:45,822
EUGENE: Mickey, wait!

650
00:33:50,294 --> 00:33:52,319
EUGENE:
Run, Mickey, run!

651
00:33:54,032 --> 00:33:55,624
Go, Mickey!

652

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

00:34:03,808 --> 00:34:05,400
Hello?
Mr. Lombard?

654
00:34:05,476 --> 00:34:07,000
Anybody here?

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

What are
you doin' in here? How did you get in?

658
00:34:14,652 --> 00:34:16,415
The gate was open,
so we just...

659
00:34:16,487 --> 00:34:17,476
Then we knocked, but...

660
00:34:17,555 --> 00:34:20,046
What do you mean
the gate was open? Who...

661

(EXCLAIMING
IN FRUSTRATION)

662
00:34:21,893 --> 00:34:24,987
Never mind. It doesn't make
any difference now, anyway.

663
00:34:26,697 --> 00:34:28,892
Mr. Lombard? Uh, sir?

664
00:34:29,167 --> 00:34:31,897
If I may, is there
somethin' wrong here?

They kidnapped Renee.

667
00:34:39,143 --> 00:34:42,476
Look, Mr. Lombard.
I don't know exactly what's going on here now,

668
00:34:42,547 --> 00:34:45,175
but maybe we know something
that can help you out here.

669
00:34:45,249 --> 00:34:48,548
You see, a couple hours ago,
Eugene and me, well,

670
00:34:48,619 --> 00:34:52,419
you see we got in...
We kind of got into a hairy situation with

671
00:34:52,824 --> 00:34:54,553
a Mr. Tony Martine.

672
00:34:54,892 --> 00:34:56,985
Yeah, I know all about
Tony Martine.

673
00:34:57,061 --> 00:34:59,154
He's the prime mover
behind this.

674
00:34:59,230 --> 00:35:02,324
He has my daughter.
He phoned about a half hour ago.

675
00:35:04,635 --> 00:35:05,932
This really comes
as a blow.

676
00:35:06,003 --> 00:35:09,029
I mean, up until today,
we thought you guys was friends.

677

Yeah.

What exactly do they
want from you, anyway?

679

What do they want?
What do they always want?

680
00:35:15,746 --> 00:35:17,577
They want their way!

I've fought against
their evil.

683
00:35:22,553 --> 00:35:24,680
I've resisted
their pressure.

684
00:35:25,223 --> 00:35:28,249
But I can't anymore.
Not now.

685
00:35:28,893 --> 00:35:32,021
So I guess they'll
get their way after all.

In little
less than an hour,

And I'm gonna

But not for the last

Mr. Lombard,
I don't know what's going on here,

693
00:35:54,886 --> 00:35:58,322
but you don't seem to
be in any shape to drive.

694
00:35:58,756 --> 00:36:00,121
So, uh...

695
00:36:00,191 --> 00:36:01,249
MICKEY: We'll take you.

696
00:36:01,325 --> 00:36:02,587
EUGENE: Yeah.

697

Joe.

698
00:36:44,001 --> 00:36:47,198
Your Eminence.
I thank you for coming.

699

Cardinal Finnerty?

700
00:36:49,307 --> 00:36:52,606
I know that
this is delicate for you, politically.

701
00:36:52,677 --> 00:36:56,169
That's why I thought
it best that we don't meet at your office.

702
00:36:56,247 --> 00:36:57,271
You're right, Joe.

703
00:36:57,348 --> 00:37:00,875
This whole flap
has become a regular hot potato, image-wise.

704
00:37:02,086 --> 00:37:04,316
And it's very
difficult for me, Joe.

705
00:37:04,388 --> 00:37:05,650
Now, you must know that.

706
00:37:05,723 --> 00:37:09,523
But the position
of the Archdiocese has to remain unchanged.

707
00:37:09,927 --> 00:37:12,259
The Holy Mother Church
simply cannot allow a man

708
00:37:12,330 --> 00:37:15,356
like Vincent Martine
to be buried in consecrated ground.

709
00:37:15,433 --> 00:37:17,264
LOMBARD:
I understand your position,

710
00:37:17,335 --> 00:37:20,463
but as I told
Monsignor Kelly on the phone,

711
00:37:20,605 --> 00:37:23,403
I resisted coming to
you for over a week.

712
00:37:23,841 --> 00:37:25,968
But Renee,
Your Eminence,

713
00:37:26,043 --> 00:37:29,740
she's only 26.
She's an innocent in all this.

714
00:37:29,814 --> 00:37:31,941
Listen to me, Joseph.

715
00:37:32,016 --> 00:37:33,540
As your good friend
who sat beside you

716
00:37:33,618 --> 00:37:36,178
on the Interfaith Council
for six years,

717
00:37:36,254 --> 00:37:40,122
you must know
I certainly don't wish any harm to come to Renee,

718
00:37:41,325 --> 00:37:43,725
but the church cannot
yield to terrorism.

719
00:37:43,794 --> 00:37:46,627
I told Anthony Martine,
Vincent's cousin,

720
00:37:46,697 --> 00:37:48,528
Vincent was
a notorious sinner.

721
00:37:48,599 --> 00:37:51,090
And in addition,
he died by his own hand.

722
00:37:51,168 --> 00:37:52,157
A suicide.

723
00:37:52,670 --> 00:37:55,468
He died unrepentant,
in a state of sin.

724
00:37:56,140 --> 00:37:59,576
I'll pray for
Vincent's soul every day,

725
00:37:59,710 --> 00:38:02,110
every hour,
for the rest of my life.

726
00:38:02,847 --> 00:38:04,439
That's not gonna
get it, Joe.

727
00:38:04,515 --> 00:38:06,676
And as a former Catholic,
you know that.

(GRUMBLING)

729
00:38:08,686 --> 00:38:12,315
Here's a man who made
no effort to lead a Christian life.

730
00:38:12,390 --> 00:38:15,359
He confessed to
shooting three people. He was convicted

731
00:38:15,426 --> 00:38:17,621
and rather than spend
one day in jail,

732
00:38:17,695 --> 00:38:19,925
he laughed
at the court and killed himself.

733
00:38:19,997 --> 00:38:23,330
If we allow
Vinnie Martine to be buried in blessed ground,

734
00:38:23,401 --> 00:38:26,029
it's like
we're saying to all the others,

735
00:38:26,103 --> 00:38:30,506
and to ourselves,
too, "Go ahead, laugh at God's Commandments.

"It's okay
because, in the end, something will be worked out."

737
00:38:33,978 --> 00:38:36,276
I know, I know, but...

738
00:38:37,248 --> 00:38:39,842
What do I do? My kid.

739
00:38:40,318 --> 00:38:42,684
You know what to do.

740
00:38:43,287 --> 00:38:46,654
You know
where your power and your hope come from.

741
00:38:47,091 --> 00:38:48,956
Put your faith in him.

742
00:38:49,026 --> 00:38:52,120
Remember,
He loves children. He watches out for them.

743
00:38:59,370 --> 00:39:01,270
We'll talk again, Joe.

744
00:39:04,041 --> 00:39:06,305
Remember,
I'll always be there.

745
00:39:12,750 --> 00:39:16,186
Yeah, I didn't know where to
tell the police to drop me off.

746
00:39:16,253 --> 00:39:18,118
I mean, you know,
I don't have anything.

747
00:39:18,189 --> 00:39:19,554
They took every penny I got.

748
00:39:19,623 --> 00:39:22,649
They took my wallet.
They took my airlines ticket.

749
00:39:22,727 --> 00:39:24,126
They took my
traveler's checks.

750
00:39:24,195 --> 00:39:26,595
Well, that's no problem.
I'll just call National Express.

751
00:39:26,664 --> 00:39:29,895
Yeah, well,
they weren't National Express traveler's checks.

752
00:39:30,067 --> 00:39:31,500
Oh, really.

753
00:39:31,836 --> 00:39:34,600
Well, most people
carry National Express.

754
00:39:34,739 --> 00:39:36,570
Well, I don't. All right?

755
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,871
I was thinking
maybe Miss Lombard

756
00:39:39,944 --> 00:39:43,880
could advance me
plane fare to... Till I get to LA.

757
00:39:43,948 --> 00:39:46,815
I'm afraid that's impossible,
Mr. Rockford.

758
00:39:46,884 --> 00:39:49,648
Miss Lombard is in
very serious trouble.

759
00:39:52,757 --> 00:39:55,385
Well, I think you were
right not to call the police.

760
00:39:55,459 --> 00:39:57,017
At least not yet.

761
00:39:57,094 --> 00:40:00,757
A guy like Tony Martine
has to have his pockets full of cops.

762

you like this? All of a sudden,

00:40:07,004 --> 00:40:09,734
Go ahead. Go surfing
or join a cult or somethin'.

We don't need you here.

00:40:10,941 --> 00:40:13,535
You just keep it up, son,
and I'm gonna find your off switch.

768
00:40:13,611 --> 00:40:16,705
Hey, he's right.
Knock it off, fellas.

769
00:40:16,781 --> 00:40:20,182
If I was Mr. Rockford,
I'd have done exactly the same thing.

770
00:40:20,251 --> 00:40:22,845
Nobody could've
prevented her from being grabbed off the highway.

771
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,412
Did Martine give you
any idea when he might call back?

772
00:40:26,490 --> 00:40:29,550
He just said something
about somebody being at the phone at all times,

773
00:40:29,627 --> 00:40:31,492
and if
I gave him some good news,

774
00:40:31,562 --> 00:40:33,257
he'd let me
talk to Renee again,

775
00:40:33,330 --> 00:40:35,491
and then he'd
release her unharmed.

776
00:40:35,566 --> 00:40:37,591
Any hunches where
they might hold Renee?

777
00:40:37,668 --> 00:40:38,657
(GRUMBLING)

778
00:40:38,836 --> 00:40:41,737
I wonder where
Vinnie Martine's body is right now?

779
00:40:41,806 --> 00:40:45,003
They've been moving him
from mortuary to mortuary,

780
00:40:45,075 --> 00:40:47,100
and then Tony said
they ran out of their string.

781
00:40:47,178 --> 00:40:50,511
Something about some law
governing the length of time

782
00:40:50,581 --> 00:40:55,245
that a funeral home could
hold an un-cremated or an unburied cadaver.

783
00:40:55,319 --> 00:40:59,415
Well, they're
gonna have to have Vinnie's body on ice.

784
00:40:59,490 --> 00:41:03,654
They gotta
keep it cold someplace and some place private, too.

785
00:41:03,727 --> 00:41:04,921
Yeah, that's right.

786
00:41:04,995 --> 00:41:06,986
That's right.
Rockford's right. Yeah, they probably got him

787
00:41:07,064 --> 00:41:08,725
in the house in
the basement, right?

788
00:41:08,799 --> 00:41:11,768
Then keep puttin' ice on
him, like a beer cooler. That's how we'd do it.

789
00:41:11,836 --> 00:41:13,235
Yeah, I know.

790
00:41:13,304 --> 00:41:16,239
Do you think
another possibility might be a large freezer?

791
00:41:16,307 --> 00:41:18,366
I say
the thing is Mickey and I hit the streets,

792
00:41:18,442 --> 00:41:20,273
check out our contacts,
right?

793
00:41:20,344 --> 00:41:22,904
See if we
can get a line on a Martine meat company

794
00:41:22,980 --> 00:41:24,277
or freezer house like...

795
00:41:24,348 --> 00:41:25,975
To what possible end?

796
00:41:26,050 --> 00:41:28,018
'Cause it's better
than sitting around talking, that's why.

797
00:41:28,085 --> 00:41:29,518
Yeah, right.

798
00:41:29,854 --> 00:41:32,687
Well, yeah, yeah,
that's not a bad notion, not a bad notion at all.

801

We'll be talking
to you, Mr. Lombard.

802
00:41:39,930 --> 00:41:43,696
Look, if
there's a chance in hell, we'll come through for you.

803
00:41:45,903 --> 00:41:47,063
They mean well.

Well, to be
perfectly honest with you, it beats me.

808
00:41:54,178 --> 00:41:55,645
Just a couple of

809
00:41:55,746 --> 00:41:56,735
Huh.

810
00:41:57,515 --> 00:41:59,506
Well, I don't know
how much I'm gonna be able to help you

811
00:41:59,583 --> 00:42:01,107
on this thing,
Mr. Lombard.

812
00:42:01,185 --> 00:42:03,153
I mean,
it's not my turf.

813
00:42:04,021 --> 00:42:07,422
I would like to give
you the benefit of any experience

814
00:42:07,491 --> 00:42:09,118
that I might've had
in this kind of thing.

815
00:42:09,193 --> 00:42:10,387
Like what?

816
00:42:10,461 --> 00:42:12,929
Well, first of all,
and it's gotta be your decision,

817
00:42:12,997 --> 00:42:15,795
but you should
be thinking about contacting the FBI.

818
00:42:15,866 --> 00:42:17,458
And the stall is important.

819
00:42:17,535 --> 00:42:20,800
It buys you
time to make some of the big decisions.

820
00:42:20,871 --> 00:42:22,498
So when Martine calls,
you tell him

821
00:42:22,573 --> 00:42:25,770
that you haven't
been able to get in touch with Cardinal Finnerty yet.

822
00:42:25,843 --> 00:42:29,142

Then who do we see

835
00:43:02,313 --> 00:43:05,282
So we figure
they got the stiff here in the freezer, right?

00:43:05,349 --> 00:43:07,283
Or else why is
Al Constantine here?

837
00:43:07,351 --> 00:43:08,648
Maybe he's guarding it.

838

Yeah, but you don't know
for sure.

839

Will you let me finish?
Okay.

840
00:43:12,790 --> 00:43:14,985
So we go
up there, right? And we listen,

841

and we only hear
one other voice besides Constantine.

842
00:43:18,329 --> 00:43:20,354
So, the thing is,
we got a plan.

843

We'll lure
these two walyos outside and we deck 'em,
