Original subtitles

Once upon a time

there were three little girls who went to the police academy.

One in Los Angeles.

One in San Francisco.

The other in Boston.

And they were each assigned

very hazardous duties.

But I took them away from all that

and now they work for me.

My name is Charlie.

Money is what matters, gentlemen.

And forever the bottom line is:

How much have I made for you?

You've done very well, Harley.

Thank you.

But now you have a United States senator after you.

The people I answer to,

they don't like that.

I'm sure the senator will have a price.

Everyone has a price.

Including you?

How perceptive of you.

You sell us out, you get dead very quickly.

Gibel,

as a freelance employee of your organization,

there might be profit in my selling out,

but I'm aware of the consequences of such a move.

You're a man who understands his place

in the scheme of things, Harley.

You need money laundered? I take it into Mexico for you.

And I have provided that service for our mutual profit

with every penny accounted for.

Caught this guy sneaking around out back.

Mr. Lloyd.

What are you doing here?

What am I doing here?

I'm here for the $65,000 that you stole from me.

That's what I'm doing here.

Gentlemen, this is Mr. Lloyd,

we were together in that land venture I told you about.

You picked me clean.

My garage, everything I own,

it's all gone. You stole it.

Mr. Lloyd, I lost a great deal of my personal funds myself.

Did you?

You cheated me.

You cheated me.

And I'm gonna make a big loud stink about that.

You see, I know that some U.S. senator's investigating you,

I think I'll go talk to him.

Mr. Gibel, would you be good enough to show Mr. Lloyd

how foolish a move like that would be? Get him outta here.

You... Come on.

Some sucker you burned on a short con, Harley?

Well, one likes to keep one's hand in.

Mm-hm. What you do outside of our deal

is your business. Indeed it is.

There's something you should know to put your mind at ease.

I am setting up a con

to finance the buying of the senator.

You're saying you can buy Senator Langston?

What am I known for, De Sousa?

Money, and the ability to get it.

Beautiful women, and the ability to get them.

Now I've got a shot at a U.S. senator.

I owe it to my reputation to give it a try.

Meanwhile, back to business.

When do I leave for Mexico?

Professor Joan McKendrick

and Mrs. Pattison are here, Charlie.

Good. Has Tiffany arrived yet?

No, not yet, but she should be here momentarily.

Mr. Lloyd, our other client,

is instructing Tiffany in the tricks of his trade.

Fine.

Now, Bosley, you have Mr. Dexter's dossier there.

We're about to con Mr. Dexter,

just as he conned our three clients.

Tiffany, I... I still think

that I oughta do it.

Mike, you can't go crawling under cars with that on.

Mrs. Pattison, uh, this is Tiffany Welles.

Hi... Oh. How do you do?

She'll be posing as Senator Langston's

political aide?

Well, as soon as I peel off these overalls, I will.

Excuse me a minute.

Don't worry, Mrs. Pattison,

I've made arrangements with the senator's people.

Our Mr. Dexter is in for quite a surprise.

Now, Mrs. Pattison,

you lost exactly $100,000, is that correct?

Yes.

That was nearly all my husband left me when he died.

Unlike some politicians, he was never a rich man.

Professor McKendrick, how much did you lose?

Seventy-five thousand.

I am a most learned fool.

And a very silly woman.

With Mr. Lloyd's 65,

that comes to nearly, uh, a quarter of a million dollars.

Mine was supposed to be a matching investment

in oil-rich lands.

There's more oil in my garage.

So, Charlie, their quarter of a million

became Mr. Harley Dexter's quarter of a million.

Not very nice, but very neat.

Kris, did you find, uh,

a matching Rolls-Royce for Mr. Dexter?

Abercrombie and Son on Wilshire.

Good. That sets up our Rolls-Royce con.

Charlie, I, uh,

have quite a rap sheet here on Mr. Harley Dexter.

It appears that he's working with the Eastern Syndicate.

He's a man of... two passions.

Swindling is one.

I'll give you the traditional three guesses as to the other.

Charlie, do you suppose that Tiffany, Kelly or myself

would qualify for Mr. Dexter's other passion?

My dears, whyever do you think we're in this business?

Well, how do I look, Mrs. Pattison?

Am I politically volunteerish enough?

My dear, you are perfect.

Forgive me, but I don't quite understand any of this.

Well, Professor McKendrick,

we're trying to get your money back,

and we're dealing with a devious man.

So we will have to deal in devious ways.

You will be part of it.

Now, ladies and gentlemen,

we're setting up three cons.

Kelly will go to Mexico with the professor

and interest Mr. Dexter in some, uh,

fabulous Mayan art.

Meanwhile, Kris will pick up a Rolls-Royce and...

And Mr. Lloyd and Tiffany will be at a fundraising affair

for Senator Langston.

It's gonna be sort of a four-pronged attack.

And believe me, we're looking forward to it.

Three cons for the master con man, Angels.

Remember, Dexter is amoral,

he doesn't know right and wrong exist.

This man can kill, and I mean it.

So watch yourselves.

You see Senator Langston?

Yeah, he's cruising around.

Hey, that was some speech.

I thought he was gonna point right at you

when he attacked organized wolves in sheep's clothing.

Luckily he hasn't mentioned me by name.

I better get to him before he does.

Be sure you do.

Hello. Hi.

You look kind of lonely standing over here.

Just catching my breath.

I'm Tiffany Welles, one of the senator's aides.

I'm, uh, Fred Dawgins.

No, you're not. I'm not?

You're Harley Dexter.

Oh. Well, don't you think you can get into trouble

talking to me?

Senator asked me to.

Oh, come on, you're kidding.

I'm not kidding.

Despite what he says about you publicly,

the senator finds you rather dynamic.

I would love to be convinced of that.

How about later over a bottle of wine?

Sounds inviting. It was meant to be.

Was it? Yeah.

Really?

Here's my card.

And meanwhile... Hi, Denny.

Meanwhile, whatever the senator says tonight,

he wants you to know privately

that he could be open for...

a campaign contribution.

Oh. Oh, I, uh, I see what you mean.

Good.

Do you know part of being a good aide

is knowing when to disappear?

Senator Langston, I just wanna say

what a pleasure it is to meet you.

Well, you certainly have nerve coming here, Dexter.

Like it or not, Senator, I am a member of your party.

Not for long.

They don't let people vote in prison.

With all respect to your high office, senator,

I'm... I'm in real estate,

I'm just a businessman.

And I, sir, am the tooth fairy.

Let's go.

Very funny man, senator.

That's... That's what the country needs, humor.

How much this trip?

One million dollars.

I read about what Senator Langston

had to say about you, Dexter.

I'm handling it.

Trust me.

I trust you as much as I can trust any other man

with a $100,000 getaway fund tucked away in a safe.

Now, how did you know about that?

I make it my business to know.

It's something I put aside for a rainy day.

It don't rain much in Southern California.

I've never let you or your associates down, De Sousa.

There's no need to threaten me.

Just trying to keep you on your toes, Dexter.

Dexter?

Professor McKendrick is here to see you.

Excuse me.

Very pretty.

Both of us lost a great deal of money

on that oil land in which we involved ourselves.

Do you know my business still hasn't recovered from the blow?

I've stumbled across a way for us,

not only to recoup our losses,

but make a sizeable profit as well.

What? Selling archaeology books?

I've recently returned from a dig in Mexico.

While there, I was approached by a young lady

who is the spokesperson for a group who,

I use her phrase,

"Have come into possession of"

a truckload of Mayan artifacts

as grand as any you see here.

You mean, she stole them?

I saw no need to press her for detail.

Yeah, that... That is gauche, isn't it?

Uh, go on.

The young lady is quite, quite attractive,

though rather headstrong.

You mean she needs gentle persuasion.

And, of course, you are very good at persuasion.

As you said before, we both lost on that deal.

At any rate, as I said,

her companions are rough, silent, threatening types.

But I tell you, they don't know what they have.

They only want $100,000 for the lot.

Harley, what they have rivals anything yet discovered.

I give you my word.

My word, they could be sold to collectors or museums

for 7-even 800,000 dollars,

at the very least.

So why do you need me?

I can only raise 25,000 of the asking price.

Also, I have no means of transporting the artifacts

into the United States.

Um.

What you're suggesting is illegal, of course.

Yes.

But I'm a desperate woman.

Twenty-five percent of what we realize

would set me up for life.

Your loss was greater than mine.

So I thought we might share...

similar sentiments.

I don't know, I might. I'd, uh...

Well, I'd have to authenticate these art pieces

before purchase, of course.

I know a man in South America who could do it, Alvarez.

Oh, I think I'd rather choose my own expert.

What about, uh...

What about the man who wrote this book?

Dr. Martin Augsburg.

He looks trustworthy, don't you think?

Says here he lives in Mexico City.

Uh... him.

If you insist.

Uh, just give me a few days in Mexico to, uh,

attend to some business of my own and, uh,

that'll also give my associates here

time to assemble my share of the money,

then, uh, come to my house in Mexico.

Okay?

Here's the address.

And I'll arrange for Dr. Augsburg to meet us there.

Thank you, Harley.

Thank you, professor.

Hey, margaritas.

Your professor's here.

Okay. Augsburg should be here any minute.

What about the money?

Well, it got laundered pretty good.

All nice, old, untraceable bills,

packed in the Rolls.

Uh-huh. And, uh,

who has the connections to do that?

You do. Keep that in mind.

Now, did you get a telephone call from Los Angeles?

Oh, yeah, that, uh, Tiffany Welles,

she works for Langston all right,

been with him about a year.

Okay.

Here's her card.

Send a dozen roses to that address.

No, no, no.

Daisies. Fresh, original, dripping in innocence.

I'll get that senator off my back.

Send her the daisies,

and I'll give you a note to have her at the house

the day we get back. Now, what about the 75,000

I need for my deal with the professor?

Oh, they're still working on that but, uh,

you'll have it by the end of the week.

There's another car.

Funny-looking guy talking to Professor McKendrick.

It's Augsburg.

Oh, if this works, and it will...

You know what that means, Gibel?

Power.

I mean, I've owned a lot of things in my life,

but the idea of actually possessing a U.S. senator.

Now, that I find intriguing.

Well, as long as it doesn't

mess up our associates back home, huh?

Okay, come on, show them in.

And then go buy the truck.

Oh, and Gibel? Yeah?

We're in a foreign country,

don't steal the truck, buy one.

Professor McKendrick, Dr. Augsburg,

welcome.

Would you care for a margarita?

Mm, don't mind if I do.

Mr. Dexter,

this is Mayan culture in its finest hour.

Invaluable.

You're holding that upside down.

Oh.

Oh, yes, yes.

What's this junk made of, plaster of Paris?

Marvelous.

Marvelous.

But we agreed we'd make the exchange at the end of the week.

Look, just hold your horses.

My friends and I are gettin' a might nervous.

We been sittin' on this stuff nearly two weeks already.

Bruno over there says he got somebody else

who might be interested, so, I...

But I won't have the money until the end of the week.

And whose problem is that?

Mine or yours?

Excuse me.

Well?

Mr. Dexter, you have a gold mine here.

Do you think they're worth, uh, 7-800,000?

I think that is a conservative estimate.

But she wants the deal today.

I can have my money ready in two hours.

Is two hours agreeable?

Two hours is about all the time you gonna get.

Wait a minute, my share is still in L.A.

Oh, but I thought...

But without the entire hundred thousand...

What... What'll we do now?

All right.

All right, maybe there is a way.

I, uh... I might be able to put my hands on the cash.

Good.

I knew if anybody could come through,

it'd be Harley Dexter.

How do you know who I am?

You got quite a reputation. Even around these parts.

A real wheeler-dealer.

Uh, say...

Uh, do you think you might have a job

in that organization of yours?

Uh, I'm a lady who'll do what she has to to turn a buck

but, uh, working with those cowboys,

it's the pits.

Well, you got some rough edges, don't you?

I'm just me. So what do you think?

I'm thinking it doesn't come free.

What does?

It's possible we can work something out.

Uh, depending on what you're willing to do for me.

You mean, uh, right here, now?

Of course not.

Oh.

Hey, now.

Uh, I ain't been turned down too often.

Neither have I. It's just that the professor

put me in a small bind with this two hour limit,

I mean, it's nothing I can't handle,

but I think I have to teach her a lesson

and I'm gonna need you to help me.

Sounds to me like you're gonna double cross

that poor little lady.

Yeah, it does sound that way, doesn't it?

I just heard on the radio you've had it, buddy.

Langston had a press conference,

he's going after your tail.

I'm taking care of that.

With daisies you're taking care of it?

Forget it, it's being taken care of.

Did Dr. Augsburg leave?

Yeah, he... He left.

Wait a second, you can't do that,

that's De Sousa's money.

I'm borrowing 75,000,

I'll replace it with the cash I've raised in L.A.

De Sousa's not gonna like it.

Then let's not tell him and save all that displeasure.

Did you get the truck?

Yeah. It's out back.

All right. Put this away.

And do try to be careful.

You're the one that better be careful.

Gibel, I know what I'm doing, I'm on a streak,

and when you're on a streak, you ride with it.

Right?

Okay, uh... Oh, do you have your share?

Yes, right here.

You'll understand if I insist on seeing it.

Now, listen, I don't have time to play games,

we're dealing with some very rough people

and they're smart, they may try and cross us.

That had occurred to me.

And what do you suggest?

Okay, we go to the rendezvous separately,

you in your car, me in the truck,

you make sure they've got the goods and it isn't a trap,

then, uh, you signal me, uh,

I drive up and we make the exchange.

I don't know, what if there is trouble?

Gibel and I will be covering you from a safe distance away.

I mean, th... You won't see us,

but we'll be there.

But... I have three times as much to lose as you do.

This way we can protect this investment.

All this intrigue is beyond me, I'm afraid.

Let's get it over with as quickly as possible.

Whatever you say, professor.

It's all here.

It's gonna be sad times

when the lady professor gets to the other rendezvous

and finds out she's all by her lonesome.

I can handle her.

I'll tell her we were ambushed on the way

and the art was stolen.

I'll even have a bump on my head to prove it.

When are you leaving for L.A.?

Well, as soon as I split with those two stooges over there.

You and I are gonna have a very interesting relationship.

Yeah?

Well, uh, I never done nothing, uh,

real kinky.

What's the matter?

Charlie called. There's a problem.

It's rumored that Dexter has $100,000 cash

stashed somewhere in case things get too hot.

Then that'll have to be the money he gives Tiffany.

Yeah, but the point is,

will he be secure enough at that point to risk it?

Or will he run?

I see what you mean.

They weren't there, Harley, and neither were you.

What happened?

All right, calm down, will ya?

I find your actions highly suspicious.

There was nothing I could do.

I thought they might try to cross us and they did.

Only they were smarter than I thought.

Tell me what happened.

We were following you, as we planned,

well back, but keeping you in sight.

They ambushed us after you passed.

Gibel put up a fight, he's in the hospital.

All I got was a bash on the head.

And the money?

What about the money?

It's gone.

And they still have the artifacts

to sell to someone else.

Don't look at me like that, you're...

You're not the one who got beat up.

That money was everything I had.

Everything.

You know,

I don't think we should do any more business together.

We just don't make a very lucky team.

I agree.

I'm sorry I got you involved.

Oh, that's all right, professor.

I'm a forgiving man.

All arranged? All arranged.

Truckload of that art stuff will go across the border tonight,

I'll be in L.A. tomorrow.

Rotten, Harley.

Hey, the professor should've known better

than to try something crooked like that.

McKENDRICK: I never thought I'd see my 75,000 again.

Well, there you go.

I don't know how to thank you.

You put it over, professor.

Absolutely. You know,

you could've been a terrific actor.

As a matter of fact, at school I did perform

with the Gilbert and Sullivan Troop.

No kidding, so did I.

You understand that Abercrombie's, as a rule,

wouldn't handle such an item.

My father would murder me

if he even knew I was discussing such a thing with a customer.

But you do have one?

Uh, yes, uh, a trade-in.

A rather well-known pop star owned it.

I don't for the moment recall his name, uh,

the skinny one who wouldn't wear proper shirts.

Do you think we could see it?

Yes.

Out back, hm?

I understand he used to break his guitars during his concerts.

He treated his automobile in the same disgusting manner.

Well, it needs a new paint job.

Upholstery could use some stitching,

he's got some, uh, some minor metal work.

The real horror is under the bonnet.

How could anybody do that to a car?

To a Rolls.

No servicing at all that we could discover.

How much?

It is, of course, difficult to price a Rolls-Royce

no matter its, uh, condition.

We would find this figure acceptable.

This would come out of Dexter's pocket?

That's the plan.

Okay, it's a deal.

That's a lot of money for a used car.

Madam, this is not a "used car."

This is a previously owned British motor vehicle.

Hi.

Hi.

Well, I love your used car.

It's not an exact duplicate of Dexter's Rolls,

some of the upholstery and fittings we had to scrounge up.

Yeah, if they look too closely,

we're sunk before we get out of port.

Well, then, we'll have to make sure

they're too busy to notice.

Why is Dexter coming home three days early?

He must've heard about the injunctions

Senator Langston slapped on all his financial transactions.

Cash flow interruptus, too bad.

Where is he now?

Uh, north of San Diego by now.

Okay. We better get this hunk of junk on the road.

Drive carefully.

Beautiful car.

Would be nice if it ran.

Oh, you are so hard to please.

Bye. Bye-bye.

Bye.

Can't we appeal?

How long will it take?

I don't have a week.

How could he get away with this?

How could he tie up my money like this?

All right, all right, look.

Look, there's something else.

I have a truck arriving at the warehouse today,

I want it and its contents guarded.

Right.

Stay on top of that appeal, will you?

I'll be in touch. What now?

I don't have to deliver De Sousa's money for three days.

If I have to, I can use the Mayan stuff as collateral.

What about your getaway fund?

I'm not touching that.

I, uh... I thought you were working on Langston.

I am, I am. Where's your faith?

It ain't in daisies, I'll tell you that.

Pull over.

Hi. Hi.

What's the trouble?

I don't know, it just died.

You got a good taste in cars.

Yeah, you too.

I was driving to Los Angeles

to go to my 10th high school class reunion.

I wanted to show them that the girl voted

"least likely to succeed" did anyway.

Now what am I gonna do?

Hey, take it easy.

Look, I'll tell you what.

I'll give you a lift into L.A.

and then I'll have my own personal mechanic

take a look at it and fix it up as good as new.

Really? Sure, I got a phone in the car,

he can send a tow truck immediately.

Great.

I really don't know how to thank you.

Hey, it's no trouble.

You've been so kind already, I...

I really hate to impose.

Why? What? What is it?

What?

I haven't eaten since breakfast,

do you think we could stop and get a bite to eat?

Gibel?

Stop at that, uh, that...

That little place in Redondo Beach.

Oh, thank you.

Listen, I got a terrific idea.

Why don't you be my house guest while you're in L.A.?

Oh, I couldn't.

You've already done so much for me.

Nonsense.

Come on.

Come on, what do you say?

Uh-oh.

Whatever my car had, it must've been catchy.

I don't believe it.

I... I don't know what's wrong with it.

All right, tell Malakian to send another tow truck.

Come on, sweetheart, we'll take a cab.

Don't let this car out of your sight.

Tell the cab to wait.

Dexter doesn't seem to have his car.

Kris, I... I'm sorry.

Look, why don't you take your bag upstairs?

Uh, this will only take a minute.

Sure.

What are you doing here? Delivery isn't for three days.

We got a tip.

Senator Langston knows about the Mexican run.

He's after the Rolls.

That's impossible.

We want that money back now, not in three days.

Now, wait.

Wait.

I gotta think this through.

Take that money out of the Rolls now, Dexter.

I have to make a phone call.

It's for you.

Take a message.

Guy says he's gotta talk to you personally,

some guy named Dexter.

Gibel here.

Yeah, Dexter, what's happening?

Get the money out of the car.

Dexter, there's mechanics all over this joint,

if I take the money out now, they'll see it.

Get them out.

I can't do it fast, I'll mess up the car.

Just do it.

I'll handle it.

We can go get the...

Cards. At Malakian's garage.

You're going to the garage?

Great, I can check on my car.

And we'll follow your cab.

Sure. Why not?

Come on.

Ah-hah, is this my car?

No, it's mine.

Come on.

Gibel?

Gibel, what are you doing?

It's gone.

The money's all gone.

But it's impossible, it...

It wasn't out of my sight long enough.

Idiot, you've got the wrong car,

that's my Rolls outside, this one's hers.

Mine?

We finished repairing your car, Mr. Dexter,

so we started on this one,

and then this maniac pulls out a gun.

You want me to call the cops?

No, no, that's all right, it's, uh...

It's all a mistake.

Excuse me, Mr. De Sousa would like a word with you.

Where is the money?

In the other Rolls. It's okay,

Gibel will get it but there's, um,

there's something I have to tell you,

it's, uh, 75,000 thousand short.

But I can make it up by the regular delivery date.

Ah, Dexter, I tried to tell you.

Listen to me,

I have close to a million dollars worth of Mayan

art treasures sitting in my warehouse right now.

And to show my good faith, I'll, uh...

I'll let you hold onto them until I can repay the money.

Come on, what do you say?

I could take the 75,000 from your rainy day fund.

Mayan art treasures.

How can I refuse you?

I just love to watch you work.

Harley? Harley.

Thank you. Excuse me.

Harley, what about my car?

What about my beautiful car?

Don't worry about it, I'll have it fixed.

In time for my class reunion tonight?

Tonight?

Yeah.

You know,

there just might be another solution.

There.

Thank you.

Now my car's legally yours, your car's legally mine.

Same car, same value.

No harm done, right?

Right.

Look, uh, why don't you go upstairs and, uh,

put that away somewhere and then, uh,

we can have a drink together.

Okay? Okay.

Well, there you are.

Kris will be around with the Rolls

in just a couple of minutes.

Thanks, Mr. Bosley.

You know, but I... I still don't understand.

I mean, why didn't we just take the money

that we found hidden in Dexter's Rolls when we had the chance?

Because it wasn't his.

It belonged to his associates.

And we do not want them after us.

Well, I just...

It all worked out beautifully.

Look, you know, I can sell that Rolls of Dexter's

for 70,000 easy.

And we take away the five that we paid for Kris' clunker,

and I still get my 65,000 back.

Thanks again.

Two down, one to go.

Yeah.

Hi.

Hi.

I really don't know how to thank you.

We'll find a way.

Excuse me.

Hi. Here I am.

Where do I park my bag?

Well, well, what have we here,

the upstairs maid?

I, uh, I... I didn't expect you so soon, uh...

I didn't expect her at all.

If you're looking for stables,

they're out back. Hey, wait a minute...

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Whoa, wait, whoa, whoa.

Uh, look, it... It's just a minor misunderstanding.

Yes, I think we both misunderstood.

Please wait in the study, okay?

Give me a chance to explain.

I mean, after all I've done for you.

Okay?

Come on.

What are you doing here?

Just what did she mean by that stables crack?

She's upset.

Well, so am I, pard. Listen, if I'd known

you were running some kind of commune here,

I'd have stayed back in Mexico.

Goodbye, I'm leaving here.

Well, excuse me.

Hey, what's that all about?

Don't ask, okay?

All right, I... I gave De Sousa the money out of the Rolls.

He went to the warehouse to check out that art stuff,

make sure it covers the 75,000 that you're short.

Uh... What's going on here?

I don't know.

Well, hello.

Thank you for the daisies, they were beautiful.

I, uh, came in through the back,

I don't think we should be seen together just yet.

Excuse me a second.

Tiffany Welles is in there.

Well, you said you wanted to see her as soon as we got back.

That Rolls of yours better be in good condition.

It is. It is.

Good, because I'm gonna drive it out of here real fast.

I, uh... Wait, wait, wait.

Where you going?

Busy day.

Somehow I don't get the impression

you're glad to see me.

Senator Langston's caused me a great deal of trouble

in the last few days.

I'm sorry. Forget it.

Except for the investigation, I've managed to survive.

Now, what are you doing here?

I am soliciting campaign contributions.

For a man who's out to get me?

I told you that was just a cover.

Wait a minute. Wait.

You mean, I pay him, he finds me innocent?

I don't believe it. You heard what he said about me.

But he has to have a tough public stance.

Surely a man of your intelligence can understand why.

Look, it's been a long day.

Suppose, uh, you tell me.

He has to establish his credibility

so that if he does find you innocent,

everybody will believe him.

Plus, now you do have to pay him off

because if you don't, he will send you to prison.

Kind of ups the price, don't you think?

Something wrong?

I never cease to be amazed

by the duplicity in all of us.

Everybody's on the take, Mr. Dexter,

haven't you figured that out yet?

The only difference between you and them

is that they're mostly amateurs.

How much? Oh, 100,000 would do it.

That's, uh, hardly an amateur figure.

And when? No, no, no, let me guess.

You want it now.

Well?

I haven't got it.

We know all about your getaway fund.

Oh, no. No, I need that.

What for? By the end of the week the charges will be dropped.

The injunction will be lifted too.

What does Langston know about the Mexican run?

What he knows, he'll forget, so you're in the clear.

Besides, a man like you must have lots of deals in the works.

You can replace that 100,000 easy.

Hey, listen, you're right.

It's been a ridiculous week.

But as I said, I've survived.

Uh...

Have another drink.

Oh, I think I'll have to take a rain check.

After all, the sooner I get this to the senator,

the sooner he's on your side.

Yeah.

But I wouldn't worry.

I think we'll be seeing each other again.

Smile, Gibel, the fix is in,

I told you I'd do it and I did it.

I did it.

Yeah, hello.

This is De Sousa.

Your Mayan art treasures are plaster of Paris, Dexter.

They're worthless.

More than that, they're even authenticated worthless.

What?

They can't be.

I wanna see you now.

Time for a long vacation.

I'll pack, you bring the getaway money.

It's gone.

What? I used it to bribe Langston.

There we go, $100,000.

Well, thank you, Mr. Bosley.

But what about Dexter?

Well, since Senator Langston's subcommittee

has expanded its investigation

to include all of Dexter's friends,

Mr. Dexter has been in hiding.

At a small hotel downtown.

Gibel's already in custody.

Well, I sold the car.

Great. That's fabulous.

Sixty-nine thousand, 991 dollars

and 52 cents.

Great. Wait a minute,

wait a minute, hold it, hold it.

That is eight dollars and 48 cents short.

I can live with it.

No, no, no, wait a sec,

Bosley's right.

We set out to collect the full amount.

Our job is not finished.

You're right.

How can the investigation still be on?

He must've gotten the bribe.

Well, what about the, uh, the art treasures?

Were they fake all along?

Well, find out, what am I paying you for?

I will pay you as soon as I sell my Rolls.

What do you mean it's a piece of junk?

It's worth $70,000.

I don't have any money, I had to pay for my hotel room

with a credit card.

What?

Y... You can't turn state's evidence,

you're my attorney.

Wait! Hello?

Who is it?

Room service.

Yeah, over here's fine.

Uh, what do I owe you?

Eight dollars and 48 cents.

That's all right, keep it for the tip.

No, no, that's included in the charge for the meal.

One dollar and 52 cents.

Yes, thank you.

Yeah.

I wanna thank you, Dexter.

I just got promoted.

Got a call from back east.

I'm now in charge of West Coast operations.

Oh, that's, uh... That's nice. That's...

That's really nice.

Uh, you want a cup of coffee?

How about half a sandwich?

Take him.

How about a napkin?

It's okay, it's okay, it's all a dream.

Going down?
