All language subtitles for Owning.Mahowny.2003.720

You know, some folks believe everyone has a public life,

a private life and a secret life.

What do you think about that?

See, the thing is, I guess...

...my secret life is a bit less secret...

...than anyone else's right now.

Hey, Mahowny,

you got a promotion, eh?
- Yup.

So, when are you gonna junk that heap?

Why? It runs.

Good morning.

Hey, wild man.

You been hanging out where the action is?

I'm always where the action is.

We still hanging out this weekend?

You bet. We're moving the stuff
into the apartment, right?

We should celebrate right after.

How about dinner at Vivante's?

Vivante's?

Are you sure we can get outta there for under 30 bucks?

No?
- No.

You just got a raise.

Hey, let's not get crazy.

All right?
Talk to you at lunch.

Good morning.

Good morning.
- Miss Selkirk.

Congratulations.

Mr. Mahowny has just become...

...the branch's youngest assistant manager.

I see.

He's been handling

Miss Selkirk's accounts and
trading interests for some time.

Well,

perhaps we could...
get started, then.

Are you telling me that the bank would be happy...

...to lend the money to my father,

but has reservations about lending it to me?

We'd just be happier if Selkirk
International was involved...

...as security.
- I thought security was...

The building itself, with Miss Selkirk's bond holdings...

...making up the balance.

In addition to which you have
my client's personal guarantee.

Even so, with such a large line of credit...

Sir.

I'm sorry you had to go through that, Miss Selkirk.

What was on that sheet?

I thought he should know how much we're making off you.

Dan!

You actually make banking fun.

It's all about procedure.

Just have to know your way around it.

Well, I am very grateful.

One of these days, I'm gonna take you out...

...and get you a decent suit.
Bye-bye.

Bye.

See ya.
- Bye.

Are you sure he can handle
a loan of this size at his age?

Oh absolutely.

He has an impeccable record...

...and excellent judgement.

What are you doing here?

We got a little concerned when you didn't show.

We thought maybe you were sick or something...

This is not the race track.
- How much you got for us?

I told you, I need a day or two.

That was on Monday, Dan, this is Friday.

Look, guys, I'm having a bad run, so what?

Just give me 5,000 more...

Five thousand more?!
- Yes.

Look after yourself or I'm gonna have to do it for you.

What are you saying?

That we're gonna have to come up with a payment plan...

...where you give me a certain
amount of money on a certain day...

...and until you're paid up,
you do not play!

You can't do that.

I can do it, I'm doing it now.

I thought we had a relationship here.

We have a relationship.

And that is why I'm shutting you down.

For a few grand?
- It's 10,300.

So what am I supposed to do?

Go to the racetrack and watch?

Do I make you do business with me?

Okay. Okay.

Give me an hour.

Yeah, give me an hour.

I'll see ya in the garage in an hour.

Couple of bozos looking for a loan.

And Martin...

I don't see anyone without an appointment.

Understand?

Yeah.

What the fuck is this?

A bank draft.

This is made out to him.

Hey, you want it made out to you?

No, but, uh...

What do I do with this?

You take it to your branch.
- My what?

It is where I come from.
- That is not normal.

I don't like my name on it.
- You will when you cash it.

What are tonight's lines?

No, no, no.
I'm not gonna let you bet.

What?
- You're not betting.

I just paid off.

I know, but I can't do business like this.

Take it to your branch.

Yeah right, fuckin' guy.

Come on, Dan.
Bank draft...

Teri, that bridge loan we did
a draft on for Mr. Quinson?

Uh-huh.

We're gonna do another 15 for a cash pickup.

Okay.

Thanks, Teri.

You want this draft cashed?

Yeah, it's already signed.
Mr. Quinson's waiting in my office.

Okay.

Thank you.
Hi.

Let's do it.

Let's do it.

Hi, folks, we'll be landing in Philadelphia very shortly.

And you know what that means, don't you?

Here comes the weekend!

Just wait here a moment, please.

Just for a moment, please.
Thank you.

Mr. N. An honour, as always.

An honour and a pleasure.

Fifteen thousand dollars.

Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Here you go, Shooter.

Here we go.

Yo! Eleven! For 900.

Nine hundred.

Here we go.

No, thank you.

Blackjack 17.

He's making some pretty big bets on impulse.

No consistent pattern.

My kind of guy.

Let's take a closer look.

Is that a Rolex?

They just drive them to me.

That's that, sir?

What?

Six a.m. We gotta end it.

You're kidding.

We'll be rolling again at ten.

Sorry.

I got kind of tied up, you know.

Guess you're gonna be mad at me.

Well, where are you?

Just out messing around.

I, uh...

I'm gonna make it up to ya, Blin.

You better.

I promise.

You have a good weekend, okay?
You know you work too hard.

Yeah, yeah, that's all I...

...need, Blin, is one good weekend.

Eleven! Frontline winner!

Oh hi!

Hi.

You still here?

That was a really great run we had going there.

Oh yeah. Yeah.

Say... um.

Stake me 200, and I'll share my winnings with you.

What do you say?

No, thank you.

Okay, uh... 100.

A hundred!

Oh...

I can't believe this place is ours.

Oh, it's not.

It could be.

We've got an option to buy.

You didn't get a lot of sleep this weekend, eh?

Mmm...

I'll bet you were out at the track.

Hm?

Did you tell Doug about coming over?

Mm-hm.

Oh, God!
I hope Maggie likes him.

Wouldn't it be great if they started dating?

We could do things together, the four of us...

Uh-huh.

Go out, have fun, hm?

Did you win anything?

Sort of.

How much?

I came home with 500.

Wow.

Cool.

Ending with a bench-clearing brawl,

and the puck crossing the goal line.

The standings: Minnesota
leads Winnipeg by six points,

the Leafs by 15.

Yeah, I want 30 on North Carolina.

Thirty? Hey, Dan,
you're scaring me.

Take it or leave it.

What, are you trying to clean me out?

I really need this one, Frank.

You got 30 grand?

You're gonna take my action or not?

I wanna take it, but I'm gonna need...

...a little something from you every Monday.

And I don't mean Tuesday, I don't mean Wednesday.

I mean Monday.

Fine, 30 on North Carolina.

Well, she's a nice girl.

Belinda's known her as long as I've known you.

Is she like Belinda?

Uh, no. But, hey,
if you don't like her,

you know, we'll just watch the game.

Why, you got money on it?

North Carolina.

One-and-a-half-point pick.

Right. So, uh,
how's that work again?

Thing is, I win if North Carolina...

...wins by two points or more.

Wow, Dan, you really go for it, eh?

You know, we should get some serious play in some time.

Like what?

Well, we've never been down to Atlantic City.

Right. We should do that some time.

It's Clubs, Dan.

North Carolina hanging on...

This game is over, folks!

No, it's not! Plankton has
committed a foul at the buzzer!

Oh boy, what a game!

Will you look at the North Carolina bench?!

Have North Carolina won by one, two,

or three points?

Dan, what's your problem?
North Carolina have won anyways.

Give me one.

Just one.

Ah, shit. This is not good.

Yes!

Give me one.

Just one.

North Carolina have won this game by just one point.

Damn.

And that's all it takes.

Unfortunately, a solid team,

too many injuries so far this season.

Who's for coffee?

Bill Gooden wants to see you.

Sounded kind of urgent.

'Morning.

'Morning.

Alex Reismer called about the Selkirk loan?

Oh, right.

He's coming down to sign out the operating funds.

I'll get the paperwork ready.

What's the number?

They need 200,000. Cash.

Hey, Dan! Your cash is here;
the Selkirk account, 300,000.

Uh, is it gonna be collected today or not?

Uh, it'll be here in an hour.

Pardon?

An hour?

Oh, I have to wait an hour?

What, you got a hot date?

Something like that.

Want me to sign for it?

Would you mind?

My pleasure.
- Oh, great!

Thanks.

How are you?

Anything to declare?

No, sir.

$100,000.

Thank you very much.

Excuse me, sir, there's been
a mistake in the accommodations.

My apologies, Mr...?

Uh, Doug.

Mr. Mahowny.

Victor Foss.

I just want you to know that my casino is your casino.

I set aside a table at La Gioconde...

...so you can sample
our excellent European cuisine.

Thank you.

Perhaps you'd prefer the Hyakida Steakhouse?

Uh, barbecued ribs would be good,

with no sauce and a Coke.

Mr. Mahowny would like barbecued ribs,

no sauce and a Coke.

Thank you.

Mr. Mahowny, your new room key.

Hey, Dan. Danny,
listen man,

forget the tables; you won't want...

...to keep playing when you see our room!

Yeah, it's courtesy of the casino.

Really?

Take these and hold onto them for me.

Don't give 'em back no matter what I say.

Understand?

Jesus! That's gotta be at least...

Forty grand.

Forty grand!

Yes... It's a new system I'm working.

You gonna take 'em or not?

Yeah.

Come back in an hour or two and
I'll have some more for you.

Okay?

Yeah, sure.

All right, I'll see you later.

Is that ribs, no sauce?

Mm-hm.

He's still playing.

I don't want him interrupted, take them back.

And tell them to make some more.

I want 'em on permanent standby, is that understood?

Doug, give me my money.

What?

Give me my money.

Dan, you told me not to, remember?
- I've changed my mind.

You brought a curse to that table, you know that?

Give me my money and stay away from me.

Come on, man, I can't let you do this.

We're talking 40 grand!

Forty grand of my money.

You gotta calm down, walk outta
here now and think this through.

For the last time,

give me my money...

...and stay away from me.

Okay. Fine. Fine.

Come on, Dan.

What?

What are you doing?!
- What?!

You lost your way, or something?

Yeah. Yup, yup.

Yup.

Hey, hey, take it easy, man.

Uh, you want a rib?

We got plenty,

but, uh, no sauce.

I'm putting you on the floor.

You're kiddin'!

I wish I was.

Bernie, isn't it?

Um, yes sir.

That guy you found in the stairwell,

Mr. Ribs,

he likes you.

And you're gonna stick to him.

Uh, sir, I...
I didn't do nothing.

Well, then, don't do nothing again.

Now get out...

...of my office before I change my mind!

Yes sir!
And thank you very much, sir.

I won't let you down.
I won't let you down. Thank you.

Hey.

Hey.

You okay?

Where's the washroom?

Uh, there, there and there.

Okay.

So where's Danny boy?

He's busy.

What, he doesn't eat lunch?

Work always comes first with Dan.

Except when he's at the track.

He doesn't go that often.

Belinda, you told me yourself!

You've got no idea how hard he works.

Anyone who works as hard as he does...

...has a right to do what he wants
with his disposable income.

You got that bank draft for me, Teri?

Bank draft?

From the Selkirk loan account.
- Selkirk...

Um, there is so much activity...

...on that account, I can't keep up.
- I know the feeling.

Oh, yeah, here we are.

I'm acting for investors
looking for short-term security.

You've come to the right place.

I was thinking of bearer bonds?

That's not a bad idea.
Bonds are secure.

Great way of moving money around fast.

Okay, so would you like me...

...to open up an account for you right now?

Yeah, uh, 200,000 in the name of Roger Oskaner.

Okay.

Hey,

you see those Bluejays on Monday night?

Seven to five?
- Those guys are hot.

Oh boy, here comes trouble.
- Big trouble.

Let me guess, Selkirk?
- Nope, Oskaner.

Oh, Oskaner.

He wants to sell bonds at market rate.

Mahowny.

Banker!

Yeah, uh... where...
where have you been?

I called four times already.

So you wanna hear the lines?

Hold on.

Hey, banker, you there?
What the fuck?!

Uh... I can't do this now.

You're not playing today?

Give me all the home teams in the National,

and all the away teams in the American.

You're kidding?

Uh, every game for the $1,000 max.

You're the man.

The Selkirk account seems to be
moving at incredible speed.

Perhaps we should find out what their schedule is,

and advise regional office.

Uh, you know,

a higher line of credit...

...would be a lot simpler.

Okay, good idea.

Keep her sweet, Dan.

Right.

You've opened a loan account for Pembro Trading?

Finally, yes.

I thought they'd run into partnership problems.

I guess things are rolling.

Uh, the documentation was all in
place; you approved it yourself.

Okay.

And... Jake Arnold.

Jake Arnold, same thing.

How long ago did we authorize credit?

Two years.

And he's never borrowed against it until now?

No, but he could have.

It's strange; you know, I think
he set the whole thing up...

...just so he could tell his friends...

...he had a million-dollar credit line.

Maybe business got bad.

Maybe he won't be handing out
jars of peanuts this Christmas.

He really does that?
- Sure.

Even his, uh... desk is peanut-shaped.

You're kidding?

No.

What a guy.

Yeah, what a nut.

Good work, Dan.

Thank you, Bill.

Dan, there's a problem: Roger Oskaner.

What's the problem?

An interest payment overdue.

No problem, he's selling bonds today.

He stopped by to sign the order and pick up his cash.

He did? I missed him again?

Jeez. I'm gonna have
to start bagging lunch,

see if I can lay eyes on this guy.

He's a goddamn phantom.

Oskaner The Phantom.

Dan!

You picked one hell of a night.

The Pointer Sisters are in town.

Wanna see the show, just let me know.

Thank you.

Anything you need right now?

Well, uh...

...maybe later I might have some ribs.

Oh, of course.

And Bernie's right here to take care of you.

'Evening, Mr. M.

Ready when you are.

Ribs, the man wants ribs.

Hello?

Hi, Dan.

Hi. Uh...

I think there's been a mistake.

Dan, I am no mistake.

Now why don't you slide right on
over here and keep me company.

Hello?

He told her that he was only...

...interested in Lady Luck.

No sex, no booze, no drugs...

...our little roller is a purist.

He's a goddamn thoroughbred.

All he cares about is the next hand.

He's a beauty. He's a beauty!

I love him. I love him!

The iceman.

You know, I was thinking...

You know, we could get away.

Go away for a weekend, or something.

Just you and me.

Yeah?

Yeah, jump on a plane.

Go anywhere.

Are you serious?

Yes.

'Cause I'd really like that.

And there are some really great deals...

...going this time of year.

Great, I'll look into it, all right?

I promise.

Maybe somewhere hot?

Somewhere hot.

Okay?

Okay.

Give me all the home teams, every game,

both Saturday and Sunday.

Uh, you want the CFL too?

All the underdogs.
- Every game?

Yeah. I won't be around this weekend,

tell Frank I want the one horse
in every race, both tracks.

Every race? You don't even
know who's running!

For the maximum.
I'll see you Monday.

I don't know if Frank'll cover you on this one.

I'm sure he will.

Have a nice weekend,
Mrs. Quinson.

And when are you gonna get married?

Ma, don't bother my friends!

I hate it when he makes stupid bets.
- Why not?

It's disrespectful to my business and to me.

Yeah, but Frank, it's easy money.

I'll take his action if he'll play for real.

That way I feel better about taking his money.

Yeah! Ha! Ha! Ha!

He's probably mad at me.
They all get mad at you.

They lose, and it's your fault, you know.

Very fucked up.

Maybe we should get mad at them.

Yeah, maybe we should.
Maybe we should.

Maybe we should.

You know...

...you know why he wants to win?

Why?

So he has the money to keep losing.

Now how fucked up is that? Huh!

So you wanna get heavy?

Nah, let's leave it the way it is.

He enjoys it, you know. He
enjoys seeing me every Monday.

It's important to him.

Anyway, so there's something I want you to get...

You got enough to shut him down?

Yeah, maybe. But Frank Perlin's
nothing, Jim.

I wanna... I wanna tap
into his whole network.

You got authorization for a tail yet?
- Yeah.

So how much more do you need from me?

You know how much Bell charges for this stuff here?

That's 50 bucks a line.

You got this whole sweet operation going on here.

What do you give me?
Uh, nothing relevant.

Nothing relevant. Oh, look!
Nothing relevant!

I want names, Jim.

Names!

Hey, girl.

Hey. Hey, you. You.

I'll be right back.

Hey guys,

is there a problem here?

No problem.
You taking a trip?

Now look, our deal is I see you on Monday.

Yeah. With 40.

You said 20.

I know, but now, it's gotta be 40.

Okay, 40. I'll see you Monday.

Is that your girlfriend?
- You leave her out of this.

She's pretty.

You kids take care of yourselves.

All right.
- We should go to the gate.

Who were they?

Just some friends of mine from the track.

I don't think you should be seen
with people like that, Dan.

You work in a bank, they might damage your prospects.

Just forget about it.

It's not gonna spoil our weekend.

Steve, I got a name here for you.
An associate at Perlin's:

Dan Mahowny.
Have that checked out for me?

Yeah, I will.

Mmm! Honey-dipped.

Honey-glazed.

You like it?

Oh, I love it!
It's stunning.

But how much is it gonna cost?

A friend of mine comes here a lot.

Yeah?

Swung me a deal.
- Oh...!

I want this to be a special time.

Okay. Me too.

Just...

Can you believe that?

Yeah.

It's very pornographic.

Dan!

Honey?

Yeah.

I'm gonna go for a walk, take a look around.

Oh... Okay.

I got nothing against Atlantic City, Dan.

Victor Foss runs a hell of an organization for us.

But hey, Vegas is Vegas. Vegas
is where you come to play.

I guess so.

Anything you need right now?
- I wanna be low-key.

No fuss, no one following me around.

He's at our casino in Vegas,

in the region of 500,000.

Cash.

Fuck.

Fuck Nevada.

Fucking headhunters!

So what the hell did you do to Mahowny?

I... I didn't do nothin'.

Oh, you didn't do nothin'?

How come he's in Vegas and not here?

I... I don't... I don't know.

You're fired, you piece of shit.

Wh...?

Good feel.

All coming to four.

Ten on four.

Come on, shooter.

Come on, baby, you've been good so far.

Yeah! All right! Yeah!

I thought this guy was a chump.

So what do you want to know?

Everything Vegas doesn't.

His mother's birthday, how he likes his steaks...

Uh, if he wears boxer shorts
or butt-huggers, you got me?

Loud and clear.

Come back at dawn and tell me
who the hell this Mahowny is.

I just heard...

...that Mahowny is up...

...over a million.

What?

Yes.

He's beating Vegas?

Mahowny is beating Vegas!

Okay.

Get your man in Vegas onto the floor,

tell him to shoot him.

Sir?
- Chloroform him!

Break his legs! Get him outta
there before he loses it all!

Now!

Bring it home to papa.

All right. He's hot, he's hot.
He's burning up.

I've been looking for you everywhere.

You know how long I was waiting for you in the room?

Honey, just give me a couple more minutes?

I'm on a roll here.

Ma'am, could you step away from the table, please?

What?

I must insist; the players
can't be disturbed right now.

Dan?

Just a few more minutes.

All right? That's all.

But what about our weekend?

Ju-just...

...a few more minutes.

All right?

Roll the dice, please, sir.

Come on, Dan, stay hot now.

Come on, this is your call.
Let's do it.

You can do it, man.

Looking for a seven or eleven.
Seven!

Beautiful, beautiful. Beautiful.

Everybody loses in Vegas.

What do you mean, no record?

I mean, like nothing.

Not even... a jaywalking ticket?

The only unusual thing about him is how many.

How many what?

Well, if you move the letters of his name around,

it spells how many.

Mahowny - how many.

Uh, you don't say.
I'll file a report.

He works in a bank. Maybe
Perlin's got plans for him.

Laundering money and stuff?

You know anything about the banking business, Steve?

I guess not.

I got a brother-in-law used
to work in that bank...

...that's ten years ago, but...

...you gotta ask permission to get married.

No way.

You think we got a lot of regulations?

Yes, I do, as a matter of fact.

He makes 22,000 a year Canadian.

So he's some trust-fund punk?

No.

Where the hell does he get all the money?

I don't know.

The usual?

Drugs?!

No way.

You have to see this guy.

Well, I got a little theory going.

It's kind of what you might call
a long shot, but I think that...

Yeah?

Excuse me, sir, but I thought you might like to know...

...that Mr. Mahowny has left Vegas.

What?

Already?

He's transferred 250,000 to our cage...

He's taken the rest back with him...

...to Toronto.
- He won?

Yes. You could definitely...

...call this a win.

So... he's gonna come back.

And he's loaded.

What's this man doing in my office?

Who is this man? Pay him,

and get him outta here.

And find that kid I fired.

Bernie?

Yeah.

Tell him he's got his job back.

Dan?

Oh, I'm really sorry.

For what, exactly?

I...

I never meant to leave you alone. I...

I tried to find you but you'd left and I...

And I guess I just missed you. I...

It's okay, I understand.

You do?

You gotta do what you gotta do.

I know you can't...

...help yourself, Dan.
You got a gambling problem...

...and we are gonna deal with this together.

No, Blin, you don't understand.

No, I've been reading up about this,

and the first thing you gotta do...

...is admit it to yourself.

Blin, you got things wrong.

Just say it, Dan.
If you just say it!

I don't have a gambling problem.

Do you think I'm an idiot?!

I have a...

...a financial problem.

You owe money?

Yes.

To the men at the airport?

Yes. And I know what I'm doing.

All right? You gotta trust me.
Please.

I have $2,000 in my savings account.

If I cash in my retirement plan,

it's another 3,000.
Will that help?

Will that make us into a normal couple?

How much do you owe, for chrissakes?

Twenty thousand?

Where did you get that number?

I made it up!

Look, Blin, I...

I know I've not been here for you lately,

but things are different now.

I...

I had a great run last night,
and that guy at the airport,

I can pay him back in full.

And then what?

Things will be different.

Did we go to Vegas so you could clear a gambling debt?

'Cause you know why I thought we went there?

I mean, when I saw the room and everything...

I mean, what was I supposed to think?

Why do people go to Vegas?

I thought we were gonna get married!

I mean, that's what normal people do in Vegas.

It's not how I'd have planned it,

but if you'd asked,
I'd have said... yes.

I'm sorry.

I'm...

...sorry.

Do you want me to leave?

How ya doin', banker?

So you have a good time In Vegas?

Not bad.
- Yeah? You don't look good.

Maybe the little lady didn't let him sleep.

Something like that.

Thank you.

Is it still snowing out there?

Yeah.

What kind of snow?

I don't know. Big snow?

Big?

I'm gonna take a hint from you.
I'm going to Vegas.

You going to Vegas? When?

When's my suede jacket ready?

Tuesday.
- Wednesday.

Will you place some bets for me?

Yeah.
- All right, I'll call you Tuesday.

Yeah.

All right.

Good morning, Dan.

Good morning.

'Morning.

Dan Mahowny.

These audits can be a pain; we
will try staying out of the way.

Uh, I was in audits myself.

So you know the drill?

Yeah. How long do you think it'll take?

Ten days. Maybe eight.

So, ten days of this?

Maybe eight.

It's late this year, isn't it?

The blizzard?

No, the audit.

Everyone's so jumpy.

Well, it has to be done, Blin.

There's something missing here.

The Oskaner file.

I only have a statement and one memo.

Dan tends to handle that one himself.

Hmm.

No manager's approval,

no details of security.

This... client doesn't even
seem to have an address.

Ah, the phantom.

Excuse me?

I can't help you.

You're gonna have to ask Dan about Oskaner.

There's one audit I heard about, out west.

The bank's only security system was an alarm that rang...

...in the hotel next door.
- Did they test it?

Uh, of course.

What happened?

The waiter showed up with a tray of beer.

Ah, well.

About the uh, Oskaner account.

What do you need to know?

There's no way I can pass this.

For what reason?

For a start, he's way over...

...his credit limit.
No authorization...

It was paid off.
- It was?

In full. He sold bonds today.

Well, fine.

That's that one done.

I'm really trying to motor, here, you know?

We're two branches behind.

Whatever I can do to help.

No pressure, Dan.

We are looking for a strike.

Straight down the middle.

Oh, Dan! Oh, Dan! Oh, Dan, no!

Not so bad!

Okay, folks, uh...

I gotta go.

No! We were gonna treat you both...

...at Swiss Chalet!

Swiss Chalet? Oh, I love
Swiss Chalet. I'm sorry.

Oh, it's okay.

All right.

Can I count on you, sir, to make sure the little lady...

...gets home safe?

I think we can manage that.

You go off and do what you have to do.

Thank you, sir.
See you at home.

Don't you even want to know the scores?

Sir, check your pockets?

Wow.

Sir, step over here, please.

Arms up to the side.

Okay, go ahead.

We're landing in Philadelphia very shortly.

Might have left the snow in Toronto,

but you don't wanna know...

...what the weather's like
down there right now.

Hey, man. You looking for a ride?

I can take care of you.

No, thank you.

Come on, man. You wait all night for a cab?

I'm ready to roll, man.

Why are we on the highway?

I need to make a stop.
- No stops!

It's kind of an emergency.

I... I don't care if it's
an emergency, no stops!

Open the door.

Hey, come on! Come on!

What are you doing, man?
What are doing? Hey!

Hey! Gimme my car back, man!

Let me take care of your travel.

Starting tonight.

Too many people around here know I carry cash.

I don't like it.

I don't like people knowing my business.

I don't like it.

We can solve this problem very easily.

All you have to do is take the funds to your bank,

and they'll wire it through to our bank...

...into an American account.

There'd be personal I.D. Requirements,

tax stuff. No.

I'll look into alternatives.

Excuse me, Mr. Foss.

Oh boy. Lock up the money.

Hey, where's he going?

Hey, you're not playing tonight,
Mr. M?

Sure, I'm gonna play, Bernie.

I, uh, just needed some air.

Yeah.

I've never been out here before, so...

Well, uh, you know, that's on account of the windows.

See, the glass is tinted,
so it always looks dull outside.

Hmm.

You know, some dude told me they pump in oxygen.

Keep you guys high.

Huh. That makes sense.

Yeah.

Right?

He's on the boardwalk.

It so happens...

...that Vegas maintains
an account in Canada.

Name of Sunshine Clearing Corporation.

Sunshine Clearing Corporation?

Has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

All right, the deposit has to be in my name.

Or an associate's.

Just let us know, bring him down,

he signs the money...

...over to you at the cage.

All right, what if...
what if my associate's in Vegas?

Could he sign for it at the cage in Vegas?

Yeah, of course, Dan.

No problem.

I'll be making a transfer...

...to your Sunshine Clearing
Corporation account...

...this afternoon.

Okay.

It's for my own use,

but I need to release 40,000 to an associate in Vegas...

...by the name of Frank Perlin.

Frank Perlin.
Okay, that'll be fine.

Uh, Mr. Perlin will have to sign
for the whole amount...

...and we'll credit the rest to you
here in sunny Atlantic City.

Are there any other - ahem -
details we should cover?

No, we'll take care
of everything, Mr. Mahowny.

Thank you for calling.

Thank you.

We have a problem with the Selkirk account.

What's the...
what's the problem?

I don't know.

Briggs has called a meeting with Dana and her father...

...at Selkirk International,
he wants you to be there.

Why are they doing this, Alex?

I mean, no one except Dan has seemed...

...even remotely interested in this project.

We go slightly over our loan,

and they're calling my goddamn father in!

It is highly irregular.

We're barely half a million over.

She's, uh...

...how far over, exactly?

Just under five million.

Five million.

Mm-hm.

Already.

Incredible.

So you want to give her a tighter line of credit?

Absolutely not.

The Inspection Department wants...

...to classify the loan as risky?

No, we are here, gentlemen,

to try and force her father to guarantee the loan.

If he does,

I want her to borrow every cent we can lay our hands on.

It's a bit of a gamble, but...

...let's not talk numbers.

A few million won't mean much...

...to a man like Selkirk.

I'm afraid we now consider
the projections to be rather...

...optimistic.

In what way?

Mr. Briggs is referring to the, uh... failure...

...of the original membership plan...
- Failure...

Which was based on tax benefits,
which have now been withdrawn.

But our new marketing strategy's
becoming very successful.

As you know.

I appreciate the fact...

...that the bank has a
big stake in this project.

I'm surprised it hasn't voiced...

...it's concerns earlier.

But I am willing to provide additional security...

...for Dana's project,

if it'll get the damn thing up and running.

Well done, Mahowny.

Get the paperwork ready before
he changes his mind, would you?

Yeah?

Mahowny's coming down with, uh...

...1.4 million.

They just got the transfer.

Only, it's, uh...

...it's made out to an associate,
name of, uh, Perlin?

He's meant to sign the money over in Vegas.

So?

Uh, well, apparently, there's, uh...

...there's no Perlin in Vegas to sign.

What?!
- They've been holding a room...

...for him, but he hasn't shown.

Mahowny's going apeshit.

Who is this Perlin?
His business partner?

I don't know.
I don't know anything...

...about Mahowny,
except if we don't get...

...his money to him tonight,
then we may not get it tomorrow.

This is the guy from Toronto who plays flat out...

...and you don't know his story?
- I don't want to know his story.

Are you saying we could be
facing a serious judgement call?

Only if we know what we don't.

Where is this Perlin?

Toronto.

So fly him down; he can sign off here.

Mahowny's already run that by him.

He says it's out of the question tonight.

If the transfer's in his name,

Perlin's got to sign off at the cage.

That's the bottom line?

That's the bottom line.

I'm sorry, gentlemen.

How about this?

What about we just take the cage...

...not the actual cage, but the
personnel and the paperwork -...

...and fly it to Toronto?

What are you trying to say?

Perlin signs off at the cage, at the airport,

in Toronto.

I told you, I'm not flying anywhere...

...till my new suede jacket's ready.

You don't have to fly anywhere.

You can collect tonight at the airport.

But it's not Monday.

I know.

It...

Meet me at the executive terminal at six.

Executive terminal?

By the rental-car place, okay?

At six?

I'll think about it.

The call came from 500 Temperance Street.

Mahowny?

Yeah. They're in deep,
him and Perlin.

How deep you figure?

I don't know, but deep.

What about this airport drop-off?

You heard anything like that before?

No, but ten bucks says were onto a drug deal.

No bet.

Wimp.

Hi.

Hi?

Hi.

I didn't know if you were on the phone or...

Come in.

Where'd you sleep last night?

In the car.

I didn't want to disturb you.

But I thought we had an agreement.

I thought it was...
it was going to be different.

That's what you said, right?

You think we got problems, Blin?

Take a look at Mexico's foreign debt.

We do have a problem, Dan!

And you are not giving yourself a chance!

Blin, please.

Or me!

Keep your voice down.

What would you do if you were me, Dan?

Just tell me that.

You expect me to just...

...to sit back and watch you throw
your career down the drain,

not to mention our relationship?

All right, we'll talk about this tonight.

We both know I'm not gonna see you tonight.

I got you this.

I mean, I figured if you were gonna...

...if you're gonna stay
out all night, you know,

you might as well keep warm.

A winter coat.

I won't see you tonight?

Honey, this is great.

Will I?

Blin, listen...

No. No, I'll listen when you
have something to say, Dan.

Hey!

New car?

You like?

It's got a TV, in the back.

It's got a TV?

Yeah, in the back.
What the fuck we doing out here?

I'm heading down to Atlantic City.

So what do you want, a kiss
goodbye? Give me the money.

It's in the terminal.

You got it in one of those lockers?

Hey, you got a new coat.

Yeah, it's from my girlfriend.

Yeah, it's nice.
Why do you walk around...

...looking like a douche bag all the time for?

Some girls go for that, Frank.

Not where I come from.
Where you going?

I forgot a bag.

Better to have one to go through customs.

Where you going?
- It's all right!

How much for the bags?

They're free to customers.

Great. Can I have one?

You're not a customer, sir.

Okay. How much for the bags?

Five bucks?

Five bucks...

Man, that's nuts, you give them away for free.

Five bucks.

What are these two clowns up to, you figure?

What are you trying to do to me, Dan?

Getting you your 40 grand.

'I hereby release all funds
under the name Frank Perlin...

...to be paid to Dan Mahowny?'

Hey, just... trust me.

There's no amount here.

You want me to sign it?

Yes, you sign it and then,

you get the 40 grand.

All done?

Okay, uh... just a second.

The dame, she looks like Tina Turner!

Good night, ladies.

Good night.

Have a good trip.

I never gamble myself, personally.

Well, I just don't see the attraction in it.

Well, winning, I guess.

But there isn't much of that, is there?

If there was,

I'd be out of a job.

If you... if you don't mind me saying.

Hey, you win and lose.

Every time...

...you play,
there's plus and minus.

Always.

Is that a fact?

That's a fact.

Well, Toronto sure looks like a nice place.

We... we saw

Niagara falls on the way over.
It was just fantastic.

I've never been.

You've never been?
How come you've never been?

I guess I don't want to use up all of Canada too soon.

Seven, nine, five, six...

I wanna know who chartered that
flight and where he's going.

Dan! An honour, as always.

An honour and a pleasure.

Okay.

Detective Murdoch, New Jersey State Police Department.

We want to see a patron reference card...

...for a Frank Perlin.

Perlin?

We don't have one.

How about Dan Mahowny?

This means the deposit was 360,000,

and this is a deposit of 620,000.

$620,000 cash?

That's correct.

And 1.4 million today?

By transfer.

Will you look at this?

The iceman's playing 70,000 a hand.

He's bust the table!

What?

Holy shit.

Ben, are you there?

Yeah, go.

They got nothing on Perlin,
but Mahowny's in Atlantic City...

...betting tens of
thousands of dollars a hand.

He's known there.

He lost millions there, Ben.

He's, uh, he's gambling?

Big time! The guy says it's
like the Super Bowl in there.

Ben, you still there?

Yeah, I'm still here.

So what do you wanna do?

What do I wanna do?

I think I wanna get a couple of cars out here...

...and catch me a bank thief,
is what I wanna do.

We're looking for an eight.
Shake an eight. Shoot out.

Eight! Frontline winner!

Crap returns.

Okay, we're looking for an eight.

Shoot out.

Eleven!

Mr. M?

Yeah.

I gotta say something.

What's that?

Listen, you gotta pick up right now and just walk out.

Oh, I can't do that, Bernie.

Sure you can!
- No, I can't do that.

Look, you did it.
You've got 'em by the balls.

I'm telling you, man.

Please, just pick up and walk.

Right now.

Bernie, I just got here.

Eight. Mark it. Nine...

Same good shooter, coming out.
Come on, come on.

Eight! Frontline winner!

Why is he stopping?

He never stops.

He's not playing.

Victor, I swear, if this guy walks with nine million...

You wanna know how we're doing?

Talk to me at 4 a.m.

Your dice, Mr. M.

Three. Craps, finally.

Okay, Eddie craps returns.

We're looking for an eight.
Shake an eight, shoot up.

Three. Craps, finally.

Mr. M... Mr. M!

They're gonna love you in Vegas.

Uh, Bernie, I've never tipped you.

Uh, no, you're money's no good
here, Mr. M. You know that.

No, take it.

Thank you, sir, but, uh...
no thank you.

You're not the casino, Bernie.

This is for you.

I appreciate it, but...

I mean, I can't, sir.

You know, I'm real sorry
you lost all that money, Mr. M.

Thanks, Bernie.

Sure is a real nice coat you got there.

Is it from the missus?

You take care of yourself, Dan.

You too, Mr. Foss.

I know you didn't get to eat,

so... ribs, no sauce and a Coke, right?

Yeah. Thank you.

Goodbye, Dan.

God bless.

See you soon.

Oh, Mr. M., your bag.

Thank you, Bernie.

Bernie?

Yes, Mr. Foss?

This time, you really are fired.

I wanna find out where he's
going before we move in on him.

Aw, Jesus Christ!

I thought I said a couple of cars.

It's kind of been a slow night.

What do you think we're waiting for, Butch Cassidy?

Hello.

Dan?

Dan, you okay?

Oh, I'm fine.

Blin...

I was just thinking, you know,

you wanna go see Niagara Falls some time?

I guess you've been before, but...

All right, take him.

Put your hands out of the window.

Get out of the car, please.

Is there a problem?

Turn around and put your hands on your head.

Put your hands behind you.

You're being charged with
suspicion of theft of over $200.

You got a gambling problem, right?

No. No, sir.

Come on!

You didn't get a buzz out of it?

I have a...

...financial problem, a shortfall.

Ten-point-two?

Million dollars?

Approximately.

Who else was in on it, huh?

No one.

You expect us to believe that?

I had a lot of luck.

A whole lot of luck.

At the bank, but not at the tables.

Dan Mahowny?

Oh, no. It's quite impossible.

How do you know him?

From the track.

You do business with him?

Do I do business with him?
Um...

...do you ever sign bank drafts
presented to you by Mahowny?

What are you asking about him for?

What about me?

I wonder if his diet had anything to do with it?

Dana!

Well, I guess you've got...

...the perfect excuse to change banks now.

Are you kidding? I finally got
something out of those assholes.

In fact, let's go down and put up bail.

Dana, I don't think that's such a good idea.

Get away from the car.

There's nothing to see here.

I'm sorry...

...they suspended, you, Blin.
They shouldn't have done that.

How many others?

Thirteen.

Thirteen?

Including Bill Gooden?

No, not Bill.

Oh, good.

But he is taking early retirement.

What have I done?

To all those people.

You want me to pull over?

It's all right.

You need to just relax.

You wanna turn on the radio?

The victory again last night:

26-18 against the Eskimos.

Tiger Cats won a squeaker against Ottawa...

...in 23 to 22 by a field goal
with three seconds...

...on the clock. The Argonauts
steamrolled the Allouettes...

...46 to 7 in a game Montreal
would really like to have back.

Listen, you can't go through the rest of your life...

...not being able to listen to sport scores.

You're right.

And you know...

I really love you.

I love you too.

How would you rate the thrill you got from gambling...

...on a scale of one to 100?

Um...

A hundred.

What about the biggest thrill...

...you've ever had outside of gambling?

Twenty.

Twenty?

How do feel about living the rest of your life...

...with a max of 20?

Okay.

Twenty's okay.
