[instrumental music]

Aha!

Well, boys..

...here's to buying cheap..

...and selling dear.

Selling?

I sold our positions in Nevrex right before the plummet.

- Why didn't you tell us? - Couldn't risk the leak.

Timing is everything.

Had to get out before the lemmings.

'There he is...the Kipster!'

- We have a problem. - Not now, kiddo.

- We're celebrating. - 'It's important.'

Everything's important to you, Kip.

And nothing is important to you.

Whoa. The mouse roars.

People are losing their shirts on Nevrex.

Well, I got my shirt.

Ascot Chang, it's tailor-made.

Please, Charlie, we have to talk.

Alright, alright, sit down. Take a load off.

- Keep 'em coming, Vicki. - Yes, sir, Mr. Danville.

Nice tail on that one.

[chuckling]

[clears throat]

To lives of quiet desperation..

...and not leading them.

[laughing]

[engine revving]

[instrumental music]

[music continues]

[elevator bell dings]

Thanks for coming.

You could've just canceled over the phone.

Canceled? And miss the chance to see Tripod and Cyclops?

Who says you're gonna see them?

I'm an optimist.

So, um, this guy is a friend

of my older brother's. Randy Price.

Got in a jam with the SEC, FBI.

Enron-type scandal. Now he wants to cut a deal.

He's got something on a homicide?

- Charles Danville, 1985. - Never heard of him.

Big financial wizard back in the day.

Uh-huh.

Now Randy is in danger

of going the way of Martha Stewart.

[male #1] 'Five hundred square feet on the water?'

What are you talking about?

Get your feet off my desk

and your ass out of my chair, Randy.

Geez, Kite.

That any way to treat an old pal?

Detective Rush, Randy Price.

You're a homicide detective?

[chuckles]

I gotta start committing some real crimes

enough with this white collar crap.

You got something you wanna tell me, Randy?

I've got something amazing.

I know who killed Charles Danville.

Okay, fine, you don't wanna solve the murder

of one of the biggest names on Market Street

I can take this info elsewhere.

Door's that way.

You told me this lady was topnotch, Kite.

She is.

Look, detective

before all this unpleasantness with the SEC occurred

I was Senior Vice President of Mergers and Acquisitions--

I'm really busy...Randy.

Two weeks before Danville was killed

I was in the john of this hotel.

[upbeat music]

[male #2] Son of a bitch, you lost it all!

- Do I know you? - Stu Livermore.

I invested 50 grand in Bentech and now look at this.

It's worthless.

You run the dry cleaners.

You begged me to let you invest.

Because you were supposed to be the big shot

with all the inside information.

Well, did you read the prospectus

because it clearly states the risks involved.

- I need that money back. - Alright, alright.

Stu, is it?

Maybe, just maybe if I pull a few strings

I can get you into Nevrex.

- What's Nevrex? - It's a sure thing.

You already wiped me out, remember?

I don't have any more money.

You must think I'm really stupid.

Not stupid, desperate

and Nevrex is your way out. Trust me.

- 'Don't let me pressure you.' - You sure about this Nevrex?

Hey, if you got a better way out...take it.

[music continues]

I got a life insurance policy. It's worth about ten grand.

But I warn you, this Nevrex bombs..

...you're gonna pay with your life.

Trust me.

What happened to Nevrex?

It crashed and burned

two weeks after Livermore invested.

Same time Danville got killed.

I told you it was good.

But why didn't you let the cops know

about it back then?

How would I profit from that?

I was saving it for a rainy day.

And now it's pouring.

[theme music]

[music continues]

Theory in '85 was a carjacking gone wrong.

Danville's body was found in an alley off of Market Street.

I remember Danville.

He was all over the business section

back in the '80s.

Well, his DeLorean was found

the next day in Ardmore

twenty miles away

junked and stripped.

A lot of high-end cars got jacked in '85.

Yeah, they busted a ring of guys

for exporting car parts overseas that year.

Details of the theft match up

with the MO in all the others

except this one left a victim.

And that pal of Kite's, Randy Price?

A '80s throwback. Real Market Street "greed is good" type.

But he's got information.

His story about Livermore waving

that gun around is pretty interesting.

Maybe Livermore shot Danville

took the DeLorean to make it look like a carjacking.

Scotty and I'll track down Livermore

see what he has to say.

You want me and Vera to go talk to the last-to-see?

- Yeah. Who was it? - Victoria Jordan.

Bartender at a place called The Arbitrage.

Oh, I've been there.

With my stockbroker.

You're in the market, boss?

Half of America is, Lil.

Not my half.

I'll give my broker a call.

See what he knows about Danville

and the company he used to work for.

[indistinct chattering on TV]

[Lilly] 'Stu Livermore?'

- Detectives Rush and Valens. - Hey, finders keepers.

It ain't illegal collecting discarded tickets.

We want to talk to you about Charles Danville.

Danville, that lying huckster ruined my life.

We heard.

- You been talking to my ex? - She told us where to find you.

You had a run-in with him, June 7, 1985?

Swore that if Nevrex bombed, you'd kill him.

That's right.

What? You think I made good on that threat?

You shoved a gun to his chest.

Should have fired it too.

But instead, I invested another ten grand with him.

Two weeks later that was gone too.

[indistinct singing]

Mr. Livermore, hey, Kip Crowley.

I'm an associate of Mr. Danville's.

I don't want an associate. I want Danville!

Mr. Danville is extremely busy.

Yeah, busy robbing honest people like me.

You know I went to the headquarters

of Nevrex Corporation. You know what I found?

One..

...one old lady in an eight by ten office

answering the phone, That's Nevrex.

An old lady with a phone.

- You must be mistaken. - No mistake.

Well, I'm sure that there is an explanation.

That money was gonna pay for my children's educations.

My wife's gonna leave me.

I'd kill myself, but it wouldn't do any good.

I already cashed in my life insurance.

No, hey, I..

...I'm very sorry.

Please, I'm begging you.

If I don't get that money back..

Just, you give me your number, Mr. Livermore, okay?

I personally guarantee that Mr. Danville

will look into this and-and-and call you.

- When? - End of day.

Tomorrow morning at the latest.

I give you my word.

I was sitting by the phone all that day like a chump

waiting for that kid to come through.

I-I got the brush-off. I finally went to bed.

Then I saw the story on the morning news.

And you never got your money back?

Yeah, I guess I could have hired a lawyer..

...tried to sue, you know, if I had a cent to my name

'but I didn't.'

Still don't.

You were the last person to see Charles Danville alive?

Yeah, around 2 a.m.

Saw him walk out that door like every night.

- Anyone with him? - Nope.

Lost Boys left earlier.

- "Lost Boys?" - Yeah.

Danville had a group of young boys that worshipped him.

'Fed his ego.'

From Collins Brothers

the firm where he worked?

They wished.

Danville's boys weren't Ivy League.

They were wannabes, on the outside looking in

until Danville took pity on them

about a month before he died.

- He hadn't met them before? - Nope.

Not that I knew of at least.

But, uh, he got real friendly, real fast.

[indistinct singing]

One day that'll be us, boys.

Yeah, in a galaxy far, far away.

Shh, maybe we'll get some stock tips.

Holy crap, that is Charles Danville.

He's-he's coming our way.

Be cool.

Mr. Danville...can we buy you a drink?

You guys from Blaine?

- Yeah. - How could, how could you tell?

Well, to start, you dress like used car salesmen.

You're at the bar because you can only afford an appetizer.

And you're gawking at the swells

like they're a different species..

...which they are.

[chuckles]

Except for me.

I used to work in a sweatshop

just like Blaine back in the day.

Cold calling chumps for ten dollar commissions.

So how did you get to where you are?

Cajones,big brass ones.

[laughing]

You guys got 'em?

- Yeah, we got cajones. - Yeah.

Good, 'cause if you're hungry

maybe I can help you out.

Seriously?

I'm putting together a bond offering

for a company called Nevrex.

You know Nevrex?

- Yeah, of course. - Nevrex is awesome.

You're crappy liars... but you'll get better.

Stick with me, I'll teach you how to sell snow to Eskimos.

Be millionaires by the end of summer.

Interested?

[all] Yeah.

Why would a big shot like Danville

wanna associate with nobodies?

Maybe he saw himself in those boys.

Maybe he was just slumming.

All I know is, the day he died

we got stuck with an $11,000 tab.

Eleven grand.

That's worth more than my car.

Way more.

Owner of the Arbitrage at the time

he thought Danville was made of money.

Just too busy to get around to paying it.

Me, oh, I never would have let that happen.

- The owner still around? - Sold the place, to me.

And, uh, I don't give credit.

To no one. Four bucks.

So Mackey's your broker, huh?

Told you where to find me?

So, Danville worked for you for what, six years?

Oh, something like that.

Thought he got killed in a carjacking?

Well, we're taking another look at that.

My detectives talked to a woman at the Arbitrage

who said the guy was a louse, welched on his debts.

Sounds about right.

I thought Danville was a heavy hitter.

- Rolling in dough. - Oh, he was, for a while.

Then he hit a losing streak.

Every stock he hyped went in the toilet.

- That's why we fired him. - "Fired?"

Wasn't he still an employee of Collins Brothers

when he died?

On paper he was.

But he begged us to let him stay unsalaried

until he could get another gig going.

So Danville was on the ropes?

Day he died, we had to cover about a half mil

of his debts to protect the firm's reputation.

Keep up appearances?

And keep the authorities off our backs checking records.

Fat lot of good it did us, considering..

...I got popped for insider trading.

Well, it could have been worse.

You could have ended up like Danville.

- Broke? - Dead.

So Danville's broke but still playing a big shot.

Yeah, and scrambling to get the Nevrex deal off the ground

while his reputation's still intact

andhe still has an office at Collins Brothers.

[Nick] 'So this guy is all tapped out'

but he's still got a corporate apartment

tab at a five-star restaurant

and a DeLorean to push around?

How do I get this job?

Now, how come the assigned didn't look

at disgruntled investors for this?

Carjacking theory looked solid.

Collins Brothers covered for Danville.

They erased the paper trail of his debts.

Plus, white-collar criminals

usually get sued, not shot.

So maybe the doer isn't your typical investor.

[John] 'Let's get the SEC records.'

See if anyone with a criminal record

bought shares of Nevrex.

We'll go talk to Danville's old associates.

The Lost Boys.

Start with the kid who was supposed

to get back to Livermore.

Kip.

[bell ringing]

Kip Crowley?

Detectives Rush and Valens.

It's about Charles Danville.

Charlie Danville? That was a lifetime ago.

We've been talking to an old associate of yours, Randy Price.

Oh, yeah, I read about Randy.

He's in trouble with the SEC, huh?

He says Stu Livermore threatened Danville's life.

No kidding.

We know you dealt with Livermore in '85

running interference for Danville.

But you never told the cops about that.

Well, Charlie was killed in a carjacking.

What would Livermore have to do with that?

Did you know he pulled a gun on Danville

two weeks before his death?

Oh. No, I didn't.

'I just felt bad for the guy.'

Did you talk to him? Is he making out?

He's collecting used tickets off the floor at the OTB.

Well, that's a shame.

I tried to talk to Charlie about him

the night that he died.

To lives of quiet desperation..

...and not leading them.

[male #3] 'Yeah.'

[laughing]

[indistinct singing]

So, kiddo

what's so important that it can't wait?

I went to the headquarters of Nevrex Corporation.

This about the dry cleaner mope?

Livermore. And he was right.

It's nothing. Nothing.

It's an old lady answering phones.

So? It's the idea that counts.

Not the brick and mortar.

Charlie, I-I promised Livermore

that you would call him. I personally guaranteed--

Don't promise things, kiddo.

Can you help him?

Please.

For me.

That's good, Kip, going for the heart like that.

I actually have taught you something.

- So you will talk to him? - No.

Hey, I'm a heartless bastard, remember?

No, you're not.

[chuckling]

You are too good to be true.

Kiddo, have a drink.

Lighten up.

That was the last time that I saw him.

I walked to the train and went to my mom's.

Danville sounds like he was telling the truth

about being a heartless bastard, huh?

No, that was just his way.

He was trying to train me to be like him.

Were you upset when he died?

Broken up.

Like I said, he, he was trying to teach me to succeed.

It wasn't his fault I couldn't cut it in that world.

These are records from the SEC.

About 4,000 people invested in Nevrex back in '85.

Most for a thousand bucks or so.

And only a dozen went in for over 25 grand.

Anyone with a record?

Yeah, one. Teddy Mars.

Served five years for dealing cocaine

in the late '80s.

And another three for manslaughter.

Broke a guy's neck in Frackville.

How's a thug like Mars get into business

with a high-roller like Danville?

Well, if he was selling cocaine to Danville

Danville was broke.

Maybe there was some bartering going on.

Cocaine for stocks?

And if those investments tanked?

Mars would come collecting, the old-fashioned way.

[chuckles] Now check with his parole officer.

See if he's got a good address.

[instrumental music]

Teddy Mars?

Wanna talk to you about Charles Danville.

You ain't vice.

- And you don't look like narcs. - Homicide.

You invested 25 grand in a company Danville

was selling called Nevrex?

Hold up. Let me get my lawyer down here.

We're gonna have a real nice pow-wow, just the four of us.

While you're on the line, we'll talk to your boys over there.

What boys?

The ones that are dealing for you.

You got me wrong, detectives

I'm an artist now.

Well, suit yourself, Teddy.

But if they're holding, you're comin' with us.

So how'd you get involved with Danville?

That ain't a secret.

For a time, I supplied all the joints on Market Street.

- Including the Arbitrage? - Especially the Arbitrage.

Them Brooks-Brother types liked to party.

[indistinct chattering]

[indistinct singing]

[indistinct chattering]

Teddy..

...you should get on this Nevrex.

Make yourself a fortune.

You want to taste the merchandise?

How much for the whole ounce?

The boys deserve a treat.

Ounce is three grand.

- You already owe me ten. - You know what?

I'm gonna cut you in on this Nevrex deal for 25,000.

Couple of months, be worth twice that

maybe three times.

Yeah, yeah. You do that.

After you pay me the 13 grand in cash

I'll give it a think-through.

Teddy, this Nevrex is like money in the bank.

You don't got it, do ya?

I'm offering you 25 grand in bonds for 13.

- Give me your Rolex. - Teddy, come on.

But in 24 hours, I want my 13K...in cash.

So, did you get your money?

Next day, one of Charlie's boys

delivered a briefcase full of green.

You happen to remember who gave you the money?

Yeah, the pretty boy, Beau something.

Look, if you don't believe me, ask him.

He'd tell you, I got paid.

I didn't kill Charlie 'cause I had no reason to.

I may have met a Mr. Mars back in the '80s

but I couldn't say for sure.

We're homicide, Beau. Not narcotics.

Or the SEC.

Well, then..

...hell, yeah, I remember Teddy.

He was our supplier.

Did Danville send you to him

with a briefcase full of money?

Yeah, and he was pissed about it too.

We were coining it on Nevrex

but Charlie hated to part with the actual cash.

So why did he?

'Cause Charlie could take the heat

from the blue-haired old ladies we were bilking

but Teddy Mars was a different story.

So you knew Danville was a swindler?

I looked the other way.

You know any other investors who might have liked

to see Danville dead?

Investors? No.

Then who?

After I gave Teddy the cash

I went back to Charlie's to return his Rolex.

[instrumental music]

My brave boy back from the trenches.

That guy scared the piss out of me.

[laughing]

Sit down, take a load off.

Help yourself.

Thanks.

Oh, I, uh, I got your watch back.

I want you to keep it.

Token of my appreciation.

Seriously?

You're the one, Beau.

You're the one that's gonna make it big.

I am?

I don't think the others

have what it takes, but you..

...you know what it takes..

...don't you?

That's when I got out.

Danville hit on anyone else you know of?

He hit on all of us.

If you wanted to succeed with Charlie

you played by his rules.

And that meant sleeping with him?

If you wanted to get ahead, that's what it meant.

[instrumental music]

Want a deal, Randy, you start talking.

And you tell all. No more saving for a rainy day.

Livermore didn't kill Danville.

I know what I heard.

You know what we heard? Danville liked boys.

Young ones, up-and-comers, like you.

He hit on you, Randy? 'Cause he hit on Beau.

Yeah, but Beau didn't kill him. He's got an alibi.

He was at his girlfriend's the night Danville got dead.

But you, you don't have an alibi,do you?

Wait a minute, you think I killed Danville?

[laughs] That's insane.

So you like biting the pillow?

You didn't get horizontal

to make it to homicide?

Guy's worthless. This deal's off.

Okay, okay, cool your jets.

God.

Did I service Danville to get ahead?

Yeah. So what?

So maybe you felt humiliated by that?

Decided to gun down the man who made you catch for him.

I did what I had to do. Big deal.

You got anything more on Danville

you want to say it right now, Randy

'cause your deal is going South...fast.

Okay.

Alright.

This is the entire truth.

That's big for Randy.

I met Danville earlier than I said before.

How much earlier?

Little more than a month before he was killed.

Hey, you're Charles Danville.

That's right.

And you work for Blaine and Sons.

How do you know that?

I used to have a crappy umbrella just like that.

[laughs] Hop in.

[music continues]

Wow.

This is so cool.

Took me a hard day's work to afford it.

[laughs]

You think I'm kidding?

No.

You know, I used to work for a joint like Blaine

back in the day.

- Seriously? - Till I wised up.

Took some risks.

You a risk-taker, uh..

Randy. Randy Price.

- Yeah, I like risk. - Good, Randy.

'Cause I'm gonna make you a proposition.

I'm gonna create a company out of thin air

sell the hell out of it.

- Can you do that? - I'm Charles Danville.

I can do anything.

Still looking for a couple of salesmen.

You know anyone who might be interested?

[music continues]

So Danville meeting you and Kip and Beau

at the Arbitrage, that was a setup?

Yep. Worked like a charm too.

And Beau and Kip never knew Nevrex was bogus?

Beau knew it was a boiler room scam

but he didn't care so long so he was making out.

And Kip?

Kip was a fool. Out of his depth.

Believed every word that Danville said.

And why'd you keep this from us, Randy?

Because it was a crooked deal.

And I'm facing charges of investor fraud.

Okay, look, you know what? I-I just remembered something.

- And this is good. - Oh, you feel that?

It's raining again.

Kip Crowley, the dummy, he got his mother

to invest in Nevrex.

And she lost a bundle.

Oh, we've seen the list of investors

there's no Crowley.

No, Danville told me she invested.

He bragged about closing the deal.

[intense music]

Hey, your boyfriend in there was telling the truth.

That's too bad.

Kip's mom did invest in Nevrex.

She went by Mavis Breen, not Crowley.

- How much she drop? - 50 grand.

That's worth a conversation.

What? You got plans?

Kind of.

- You got plans? - You kidding? I'm married.

I'll take any excuse not to go home.

I wish you boys would've given me some warning.

Would've made myself presentable.

We just wanted to ask you about Nevrex, Mrs. Breen.

Mavis, please.

I'm divorced.

Can you tell us how you came to invest

in the company...Mavis?

You'd have to ask Kip about Nevrex.

Well, we'd rather talk to you.

Wait. Kip isn't in any trouble, is he?

'Cause if he is, it's my fault.

And how would that work?

[sighs] Well, when it comes to men..

...I make terrible choices.

'And poor Kip had to suffer through'

my divorces. Yeah, all four of them.

So about Nevrex..

...Kip told you to invest?

Yeah, well, he knew I had some money in the bank

from my last settlement.

He just wanted to help me grow it.

Did you ever meet Charles Danville?

He took Kip and me to dinner.

You know...to make his pitch.

Cincin.

What is this?

Well, now that is called sushi, Ms. Breen.

Oh, it's Mavis.

Well, why isn't it cooked?

[laughs]

Oh, it's cutting edge.

Raw's the next big thing.

Well, I prefer chicken teriyaki.

[laughing]

Mom, Charlie has a great investment opportunity for you.

It's a company called Nevrex, Mavis.

High-tech. Japanese are interested in investing.

Right, Charlie?

But I promise it has

nothing to do with sushi.

[laughing]

Charlie's a genius, mom.

He's a senior VP at Collins Brothers.

I've heard of Collins Brothers.

Well, I'm old news. Kip here is the future.

No thanks to you, huh?

I may have helped out a little bit.

Charlie is my mentor, mom.

You flatter me, kiddo.

Well, I certainly appreciate you taking an interest in my boy..

...but when it comes to investing

I'm awful cautious.

Well, your mom's a smart lady, Kip.

[laughs]

It's obviously going to take more than one dinner

to get her to see the wisdom of investing.

So...Danville convinced you?

Eventually.

I really invested for Kip's sake.

You know, to help advance his career.

A lot of good thatdid.

You must've been pretty angry

losing all that money.

- Furious. - How about Kip?

He was devastated.

He really believed in that Danville.

So maybe in your defense, he took revenge on Danville.

Oh, no. My Kip couldn't hurt a fly.

Me, on the other hand

I wanted to string Danville up by his lying neck.

But, of course, I didn't.

[chuckles]

Man was dead before I could buy a rope.

Oh, your friend Price is a real prince.

He's my brother's friend and he's always been a lowlife.

Well, he's a saint compared to Danville.

But that's the J-O-B.

We don't get to pick our victims.

So, you, uh..

...wanna go see another movie tomorrow night?

It's first Thursday's tomorrow.

First what?

First Thursday of every month

the homicide detectives get together

retired and active.

- To do what? - Talk.

Drink.

Sounds fun. Bring me along.

Uh, I don't know, Kite.

You're not in the "Hat Squad."

You guys have more weird names for yourselves.

It's usually just cops.

Well, I'm a friend of a cop.

[keys jingling]

[instrumental music]

You wanna see the girls?

[music continues]

- Met your mom, Kip. - You did?

Yeah, I heard how she lost a cool 50K to Nevrex.

Oh, boy.

Forgot to mention that to us, did you?

Well, I-I-I didn't tell you, because I thought

it would look like I killed Charlie.

- It does. - That's just the half of it.

What do you mean?

Randy Price, Beau Munger

they say Danville was a sexual predator.

They said that?

Come on, Kip, quit the act.

You worshipped Danville.

Not only did he use you to get to your mom's money..

He hit on you too.

No.

That's not how it went.

You really think I should buy it?

Hell, yes, I think you should buy it.

Uh, maybe I should

save the money that we're making off Nevrex.

No, no, kiddo..

[chuckles] ...there's plenty more

where that came from.

- I do love it. - Then buy it.

- You deserve it. - Yeah?

I'm really proud of you, you know.

- You've come a long way. - I don't know.

Hey, kiddo, you stick with me.

You're gonna rule Market Street one day.

Follow right in my footsteps.

Come on, kiddo, let's grab the bull by the horns.

Okay.

Then I got to tell you something.

Um..

The car is not the only thing that I love.

Uh, I..

...I love you too.

I love you too, kiddo.

No..

...I mean..

...I really love you.

[instrumental music]

Charlie didn't hit on me. I hit on him.

That must've surprised Danville.

He was surprised.

But then we fell in love.

- You buy that Mustang? - Yeah.

Charlie and I drove all over town in it.

I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him.

So the thought of me killing him..

...it's so crazy.

I loved him.

I still do.

You know how Kip said he took the train to his mom's

the night Danville died?

- Yeah? - There's a reason.

I ran all the carjackings in June of '85.

No Mustangs stolen in Philly.

But in Montgomery County, where Kip's mom lived..

- Cherry red Mustang? - Junked and stripped.

- Guess where? - Ardmore.

Just like all the other carjackings.

Including Danville's DeLorean.

Pretty amazing coincidence.

How'd they miss this in '85?

Montgomery County and Philly were like

two separate countries, Scotty.

So maybe Kip's playing us. Using love as an alibi.

Let's bring the math teacher in this time

see whether he likes our house.

[Kip] 'This is wrong.'

Why are you doing this to me?

He's excellent.

You sure you don't teach drama?

I-I'm telling you the truth.

I didn't kill Charlie. Why do you think that?

Well, 'cause your precious cherry red Mustang

was carjacked a few days before Charlie was killed.

[Scotty] 'So you knew exactly how to cover up a murder'

and make it look like a carjacking.

Was it spur of the moment, Kip, or premeditated?

I left Charlie at the Arbitrage alive.

And then I went to the train station just like I told you.

I believe you left the bar, Kip.

Then you waited outside for Danville to leave.

Shot him twice, then took off in his DeLorean.

No, that's not what happened.

So what did happen?

The night he was killed I...I kept at him.

I confronted him one last time.

[man laughing]

Charlie.

Having a conversation here, Kip.

I'm not leaving till we talk.

[music continues]

What's bothering you now?

- If you won't help Livermore-- - Get over Livermore!

At least tell me that the $50,000 my mom invested

you're not gonna scam her too?

Your mom already received her return on investment.

What do you mean?

Ask her.

Charlie, you-you're really confusing me here.

Is-is my mother gonna get her money back or not?

No, Kip, she's not.

But she's my mother.

She's not some stranger like Livermore.

I-I thought that you cared about us.

- Me. - I do, kiddo.

That's why you should listen to me very closely.

This game ain't for you.

Get out while you're still young.

Go back to the sticks, become a librarian.

- Or something more your speed. - You're kidding, right?

I wanted to help you, but you're just not catching on.

- Charlie.. - It's over. No sale.

- But I love you. - Sorry!

So long, kiddo.

I left there crying like a baby.

Never saw Charlie again.

Says you.

I went to my mom's, like I told you.

When it comes to alibis

a mother is pretty close to worthless.

I can't confess to a murder I didn't commit.

Why don't you believe me?

Well...what are you doing here?

Kip's in custody for the murder

of Charles Danville, Mavis.

Oh, no. No, that's not right.

Kip did not do anything.

We know about Kip's car getting jacked.

So what? That doesn't prove anything.

- So you knew about that too? - Well, of course, I knew.

Mavis, there are ways of testifying

that could help Kip, reduce his sentence.

He seems like a decent guy, jury will respond to that.

"Seems?"

That boy is an angel.

All the same, he killed a man in cold blood.

And left him to die on the road.

That boy is an angel.

And..

...and Danville...was the Devil.

Oh, I'm sorry, mom.

[crying] I'm so sorry.

I don't care about the money.

I loved him.

I know.

No, I mean..

...I really, really loved him.

You mean..

...you and him?

Yeah.

God, he used me and then

spit me out like I was nothing.

He told me that I wasn't cut out for the business

and just....just go back to the vegetable patch.

It's okay.

'It's okay, baby.'

It's okay.

[intense music]

Hello, Charlie.

Mavis? Ha ha. What are you doing here?

Called the bar, made sure you were still here getting sauced.

- What do you want? - You.

Again?

[chuckles]

I didn't give you enough of a workout the other night?

Yeah, that was business.

You had to close a deal.

What, you're sore about the money?

Forget the money.

I want you.

Look, Mavis..

...I'm a little tired.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, now..

I'm an adult.

I got no one but myself to blame

for sleeping with a cold-blooded reptile like you.

But Kip's just a kid.

- He's in his 20s. - He's a baby.

Look, why don't you just put the gun away, okay?

We'll talk the whole thing through.

Sleeping with a mother and her son

that's as low as it gets.

Kip doesn't have to know.

He's never gonna know anything.

Just that you got what was coming to you..

...kiddo.
