Above the barber shop.

What side of the street does he live on?
North or south?

Have you ever been to Poughkeepsie?

You've been to Poughkeepsie?
l wanna hear it!

- Yes, l. . . l've been to Poughkeepsie.
- You sat on the edge of the bed.

You took off your shoes
and picked your feet, didn't you?

- Now say it!
- Yes.

All right. You put a shiv in my partner.
You know what that means, goddamnit?

All winter l gotta listen to him
gripe about his bowling scores.

for picking your feet.

Merci.

C'est merveilleux, ch�ri.

Tu me g�tes. Je t'aime.

C'est pour toi, ch�ri.

Merci, ch�rie.

Need a little help there?

- You dumb guinea.
- How the hell did l know he had a knife?

- Never trust a nigger.
- He could've been white.

- Never trust anyone. Goin' sick?
- No.

- Are you goin' sick?
- No!

- What d'you say we go to Chez for a drink?
- Jimmy, l'm beat. l'm gonna go home.

All right, all right. One drink.

- Drink this.
- Whip it out.

How many times have l been downhearted

Looked up and saw him
smiling like a shiny dime

And hoped that he would stay
and tell me why he was so happy

lf he had the time

Oh, l wish there was a way to race him

Catch a flying horse and chase him

Everybody's goin' to the moon

Me and you, everybody's goin'

lt'll be quite soon

lt's customary in songs like this

To use a word like spoon

By the light of the silvery

We'll take a flight to the silvery

Everybody's goin' to the moon

How many times, while looking down
has he heard us singing songs

And wondered who we were

Hey!

Then envied us because
the lady in the moon is gone

And now he misses her

And then he wondered to himself
now why is it no one ever pays a visit?

Everybody gets to go to the moon

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Everybody gets to go, it'll be quite soon

Now it's customary in songs like this

To use a word like June

By the light of the silvery

We'll take a flight to the silvery

You know, everybody's goin' to the moon

Now, isn't it a miracle

That we are the generation

That's gonna touch that shiny bubble
with our own two hands

And it's got to make you glad to be alive

Yes, it's got to make you proud
to be a man

l make at least two junk connections
at that far table over in the corner.

The guy in the striped shirt
and tie combo, . . .

. . l know him too.

l thought we came here to buy me a drink.

(Jimmy) Who is that clown?

lt's a policy guy from Queens.

- (Jimmy) Dig the creep comin' to the table.
- (partner) lt's Jewish Lucky.

He don't look the same
without numbers across his chest.

That table is definitely wrong.

lt's customary in songs like this

To use a word like spoon

By the light of the silvery

Fly to the silvery

Everybody's goin' to the moon

(applause)

More!

What about the last of the
big-time spenders? Do you make him?

No. You?

(Jimmy) He's spreadin' it around
like the Russians are in Jersey.

Oh, yes.

What do you say we stick around
and give him a tail?

Come on. Just for fun.

Give who a tail?

The greaser with the blonde.

What for? You wanna play
hide the salami with his old lady?

Yeah.

Miss, can l ask you
about those boots? They're. . .

Monica.

- Who in the hell's that?
- Who keeps score?

(Jimmy) Hey.

- (Jimmy) Kissy devil, isn't he? Look at him.
- Well, they're all cousins. You know that.

Yeah, say goodbye. Come on.
What's he got now?

- Hudson Terraplane, that's what he got.
- No, no.

- Easy.
- OK.

Go to work.

(Jimmy) Cloudy, l'll lay odds
he takes us to dago town.

We'll take him, Popeye. He's nothin' .

(Cloudy) Seven o'clock in the morning.
l don't believe it.

(Jimmy) Relax. You're havin' fun, ain't you?

lf that's not a drop, l'll open
a charge for you at Bloomingdale's.

Make it Alexander's.
l like the toy department.

He's comin' back.

Pass him. Make a left.

Alain.

(Cloudy) Our friend's name is Boca.
Salvatore Boca. B-O-C-A.

They call him Sal. He's a sweetheart.

He was picked up on suspicion
of armed robbery. Now get this.

Three years ago he tries to hold up
Tiffany's on Fifth Avenue in broad daylight.

He could've got two and a half to five,
but Tiffany�s wouldn't prosecute.

Also, downtown they're pretty sure
he pulled off a contract

on a guy named DeMarco.

- (Jimmy) How about his old lady?
- Her name's Angie. She's a fast filly.

She drew a suspended
for shoplifting a year ago.

She's only a kid.
1 9, according to the marriage licence.

(Jimmy) 1 9 goin' on 50.

- What else?
- He's had the store a year and a half.

Takes in a fast seven grand a year.

So what's he doin' with two cars
and a tab at the Chez?

The LTD's in his wife's name.
The Comet belongs to his brother Lou.

He's a trainee at the garbageman's
school on Ward's lsland.

He did time a couple of years ago -
assault and robbery.

Black Cadillac.

New Jersey plates.

RWN-264. l know that one cat. We saw him
outside the Pike Slip lnn the other day.

l want a blouse like that for my girlfriend,
but you could model it.

Better not let my husband hear that.

l don't care if he hears it.
Will you do it for me?

OK. How much are you gonna pay?

- $50 an hour.
- 50 an hour?!

- l'll do it. $200 .
- No, can't afford it.

l'll call you later. Bye-bye.

Hey, it's 1 .30. l didn't expect you till two.

- You work around here?
- Across the street.

(Jimmy) That's the third time
he's come here this week.

- You got anything on this building?
- Clean. l checked the tenant list.

Remember Don Ameche, the actor?
He lives here.

Oh, yeah, and somebody else.

- Does the name Joel Weinstock ring a bell?
- You're kidding.

No, sir. He lives right here.

He was the bank on the shipment
out of Mexico three years ago.

Yeah, so l hear.

He's goin' to Ward's lsland.
We'll be spotted. Why's he doin' that?

Maybe he's gonna go down
and see his brother.

Well, maybe it's another drop.

Well, he gets a free ride.

(jukebox music)

(music stops)

All right, Popeye's here!

Get your hands on your heads,

Come here. D'you pick your feet?

Do you. . .? Get over there.
Get your hands on your head.

- Hold 'em up.
- We told you people we were comin' back.

We're gonna keep comin' back

Keep your eye on your neighbour.

Turn around there, fella.
What have we got here?

This belong to you? Huh?

Stand up there, noddy.

Get your hands on your fuckin' head.

Smart ass, you dropped somethin' .
Pick it up.

You want that hand broken?
Get it up there.

What else you got here, huh?

Turn around.

You're under arrest. That goes for you too.
Get in that phone booth. Move!

Get in there. Face the wall, put your hands
against the wall and lock yourself in.

Hey, you !

Haircut! Where are you going?

- You talkin' to me, baby?
- Yeah, l'm talkin' to you ! Come here!

- What's happening?
- Where you been?

- ln there.
- Can you stand a toss?

- Sure, l'm clean.
- You use shit?

No, man. Who are you, Dick Tracy
or somebody? l said l was clean.

- l'm not gonna get stuck, am l?
- l'm clean !

- lf l do, you know what happens.
- Yeah. l said l'm clean.

Get off! l'll break your motherfuckin' ass!

Give me a nickel.
Give me a nickel. Come on !

l told you l'm clean. What the fuck
you wanna come down on me like that for?

This is goddamn full of shit.

- How's everything?
- Everything's everything, baby.

There's nothin' out there. lt's all milk.

There ain't nothin' around.
Nobody's holdin' .

l got a name for you. Sal Boca. Brooklyn.

- Boca?
- Yeah. B-O-C-A.

- Never heard of him.
- What about his wife Angie?

Doesn't register.
There's been some talk, though.

- About what?
- A shipment.

Comin' in this week, the week after.
Everybody's gonna get well.

- Well, who's bringin' it?
- Who knows?

- Where do you want it?
- Huh?

- Where do you want it?
- Oh, shit. This side.

Beat it!

l'm gonna check on this address.
lf they don't know you, it's your ass.

- l thought l told you to stand there!
- Get that hair down before Saturday.

We're goin' now. Goodbye!

Move ass. Tell everybody
we'll be back in an hour.

Great, but you belong in
Bedford-Stuyvesant, not Ridgewood.

Why don't you detach us?

Give us a shot, at least till we find out
if there's anything here.

Everybody wants Weinstock. Maybe here's
the lead we're looking for. We deserve this.

You couldn't burn a three-time loser
with this garbage.

The man has done absolutely nothin' .
You'll wind up in an entrapment rap.

Brooklyn is loaded with guys

that own candy stores,
two cars and go to nightclubs.

You put this hustler together with
Weinstock and maybe we got a big score.

Big score, my ass!
At best he's sellin' nickel-and-dime bags.

l wouldn't be infringin' on your coffee break
if l thought it was a nickel-and-dimer.

Your hunches have backfired before, Doyle,
or have you forgotten about that already?

Jesus Christ, Jimmy,
what's happened to you guys?

Every year you lead
the narcotic bureau in arrests.

What was it, over 1 00 again last year?

Terrific. But who? What did you bring in?

A high-school kid in short pants
that had a twitch?

You grab a bellhop because
he's got three joints in his sock?

Walter, we got the information
there's no shit on the street, right?

lt's like a desert full of junkies
waiting to get well.

Goddamnit, this could be it. This little
candy-store guy, he's put on a big show. . .

. .in a club with no narcotics connections.
They were all over him.

And after working a day and night,
we tail him to Brooklyn.

And we sat on him for practically a week,

and who do we come up with?
Joel Weinstock.

Now you gotta let us have it.

Do you believe all this crap?

l go with my partner.

- What'll it take?
- A wire.

No, two wires.
One on the store, one on the house.

You know l have to get a court order
for a wire tap, don't you?

- But you'll try.
- We know you can do it, Walt.

Popeye, you still picking your feet
in Poughkeepsie?

J'entends parler de �a.
Je n'arrive pas � y croire.

Alors je vais un peu parler pour moi.

J'ai tendance �. . . penser
� mes propres probl�mes, enfin. . .

Monsieur Devereaux, is this
your first trip to New York?

- Yes, it's my first.
- Why did you choose to come by ship?

The next several weeks
will be very difficult for me, . . .

. .and the ocean is the only place where
the telephone isn't ringing all the time.

Do you agree with
the recent survey finding. . .

. .that showed that Mayor Lindsay
was the sexiest man in the world?

(interpreter translates into French)

Tout � fait, oui.

Here's the warrants and the court order
for the wire tap. Judge gave you 60 days.

Mulderig and Klein'll sit in for the feds.
They'll make all the buys.

Make sure you keep 'em informed
of everything that goes down.

You know Doyle there, don't you?

Yeah, l know Popeye. His brilliant hunches
cost the life of a good cop.

lf this is the way you're comin' in on this,

why not stay home
and save us a lot of grief?

- Because that's my opinion.
- Shove it up your ass.

Whatever.

Bill, do me a favour, give them a chance.
He came in with a little basic information.

You worked with him, had some trouble,
but don't get off on the wrong foot.

- You have any problems, come to me.
- Simonson, just keep off my back.

Just try and cool it with him. lf you have
any problems, come to me. l'll handle him.

- l'll be happy to work with him.
- He's a good cop.

- He's got good hunches once in a while.
- Fine. Just keep him off my back.

(Jimmy) That crazy kid.

She locked me up with my own cuffs.

You meet me Wednesday at the hotel, OK?

- Sounds French.
- Will l expect you?

- (Sal) Yeah. What time?
- 1 2 o'clock. Yes?

(Sal) Yeah. Yes.

Strictly small potatoes.
You sure can pick 'em, Doyle.

Still wearing your gun on your ankle?

Someone told me the reason
why you do that is. . .

. .when you meet a chick
and you rub up against her, . . .

. .she can't tell you're a cop.

l said it's bullshit. lt's gotta be
a fast-draw gimmick or somethin' .

Bill, why don't you knock it off, huh?

He's gettin' too far ahead.

You're gonna lose him.

(car horns)

(driver) For Christ's sake, move the car!

(Jimmy) What the hell is goin' on here?

Klein, this is Cloudy. Do you read me?
Klein, this is Cloudy. Do you read me?!

Come in, for Christ's sakes!

This is Cloudy. Do you read me?
Listen, we lost him on the bridge.

Right. l got him.
He's headin' north on East River Drive.

- Excuse me.
- Excuse me.

(Jimmy) You take Sal. l'll take the beard.

There goes Sal.

- You want the red or the white?
- Pour it in your ear.

Yes, sir?

Yeah, guy just walked in, what's his name?

l'm pretty sure that one's a Frog.

He made me, too.

He lives on four, he went up to six.
He's cute, real cute.

The other guy's a Frog. He checked
into the Edison. Had a hooker sent up.

You should have collared him right there.

- Who's on him?
- Klein.

- How about Sal?
- We put him to bed for the night.

Why don't you do the same, Doyle?
You look like shit.

(Cloudy) Come on.

Look, my partner and l
made this case, you know, originally.

We don't want any feds screwing it up.

Case? So far you haven't shown me a thing.

You keep shootin' your mouth off,
l'm gonna knock you right into next week.

- (Cloudy) Knock it off.
- Don't tell me to knock it off.

Cut it out, will ya, for Christ's sakes!

There's nothin' goin' down. Get some sleep.

Blastoff. 1 80.

200 . Good Housekeeping seal of approval.

21 0 . US government certified.

220. Lunar trajectory.

Junk-of-the-month club. Sirloin steak.

230 . Grade-A poison.

Absolute dynamite.

89 per cent pure junk. Best l've ever seen.

lf the rest is like this,
you'll be dealin' on this load for two years.

- lt's worth the half million?
- How many kilos?

- 60.
- 60 kilos. . .

Eight big ones a kilo, right? This stuff'll
take a seven-to-one hit on the street.

By the time it gets down to nickel bags,
it'll be 32 million.

Thank you, Howard. Take what's left
there with you and good night.

Uh-uh. Not that one. The little one.

- l guess we got a deal, huh?
- What we got here, Sal, is a test.

A deal for half a million dollars? Maybe.

Maybe?

Come on, the guy's in a hurry. He wants
the bread. He wants to go back to France.

This guy's not gonna play games.

Look, he's one of the shrewdest cats
l ever come across.

What am l, a schmuck? What's the hurry?

He could see a couple of shows,
visit the top of the Empire State Building.

Don't jerk me, Weinstock.
l spent a lot of time settin' this one up.

So what do you want, a badge?
This is your first major-league game, Sal.

One thing l learned: move calmly,
move cautiously, you'll never be sorry.

Look, l've been damn careful up to now.

This is why your phone lines are tapped

and the feds are crawlin'
all over you like fleas.

He'll take the deal somewhere else.

Let him take it and find out how easy it is. . .

. .to put together a half a million in cash.

There's no hurry to do
this kind of business.

The stuff is here!
We can make the switch in an hour!

Look, l'm tellin' you,
he'll split if we don't move.

This guy's got 'em like that.
He's everything they say he is.

What about you, Sal?
Are you everything they say you are?
