Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,074
2
00:01:50,408 --> 00:01:51,882
GANGSTER SQUAD
3
00:02:00,556 --> 00:02:02,556
We'll be at the airport
in about twenty minutes.
4
00:02:02,608 --> 00:02:04,898
That'll put us in Las Vegas about 2:30.
5
00:02:05,597 --> 00:02:07,354
We're going after Granger,
aren't we, lieutenant?
6
00:02:07,404 --> 00:02:08,428
That's right.
7
00:02:08,546 --> 00:02:09,918
What's the charge?
8
00:02:10,036 --> 00:02:11,334
Murder.
9
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,720
What happens to a guy
like Granger?
10
00:02:14,894 --> 00:02:16,344
I don't know.
11
00:02:16,508 --> 00:02:18,059
Too much ambition maybe.
12
00:02:18,195 --> 00:02:20,195
Too many brains working
in the wrong direction.
13
00:02:20,695 --> 00:02:22,183
Or maybe it's glandular.
14
00:02:22,832 --> 00:02:24,249
Step on it. We're late.
15
00:02:26,628 --> 00:02:28,092
Carter wanted to talk.
16
00:02:28,433 --> 00:02:31,038
But what could I tell him
about the real Mal Granger?
17
00:02:31,193 --> 00:02:33,193
And I knew him better than most.
18
00:02:33,311 --> 00:02:35,311
He was in the racing wire
service racket.
19
00:02:35,652 --> 00:02:38,047
But he started out
just like anybody else.
20
00:02:38,286 --> 00:02:39,716
He wasn't a criminal.
21
00:02:40,113 --> 00:02:42,692
He was just a guy working
for the telephone company.
22
00:02:45,592 --> 00:02:48,094
I just wish I could lay my hands on
Don Ameche for a while.
23
00:02:48,144 --> 00:02:49,744
I'd teach him to invent the telephone.
24
00:02:50,819 --> 00:02:53,722
I've always had a secret desire
to cross up some of these wires.
25
00:02:53,772 --> 00:02:55,511
Get all the wrong people
talking to each other.
26
00:02:57,364 --> 00:02:59,364
Might be interesting at that.
27
00:02:59,724 --> 00:03:01,724
Oh, lady, lady.
28
00:03:02,664 --> 00:03:04,439
What are you so quiet about?
29
00:03:04,548 --> 00:03:05,819
Bessie's sick again.
30
00:03:05,909 --> 00:03:08,532
Every time we get almost caught up,
one of the kids gets sick.
31
00:03:08,651 --> 00:03:09,352
Kaplooey.
32
00:03:09,386 --> 00:03:10,376
I don't see how you do it.
33
00:03:10,415 --> 00:03:12,415
Take care of a wife and a couple of kids
on our dough.
34
00:03:12,450 --> 00:03:14,682
I can't even handle myself
on that chicken feed.
35
00:03:14,707 --> 00:03:15,532
It's tough, Mal.
36
00:03:15,582 --> 00:03:17,788
If it wasn't for a couple of bets
now and then, I'd never make it.
37
00:03:17,871 --> 00:03:18,994
Here.
38
00:03:19,285 --> 00:03:20,564
There's twenty bucks that's not working.
39
00:03:20,602 --> 00:03:23,144
No thanks, Mal. If I need it at the end
of the week, I'll let you know.
40
00:03:23,166 --> 00:03:25,519
By the end of the week I may not
have it. You better take it now.
41
00:03:25,533 --> 00:03:26,520
Gee, thanks, Mal.
42
00:03:26,549 --> 00:03:27,939
Tessie's gonna love you for this.
43
00:03:27,989 --> 00:03:29,821
Yeah? My bookie's gonna hate me.
44
00:03:29,908 --> 00:03:31,480
See you at lunch.
-Right.
45
00:03:34,306 --> 00:03:35,885
Forget about those daily doubles, bud.
46
00:03:35,935 --> 00:03:36,914
Thanks.
47
00:03:37,174 --> 00:03:39,463
Say, how about mine?
-Hello, Bill.
48
00:03:39,510 --> 00:03:42,031
Six forty and twelve thirty.
Eighteen seventy I owe you.
49
00:03:42,072 --> 00:03:43,109
Well, finally.
50
00:03:43,137 --> 00:03:44,651
Stick with me, kid, you get nothing
but winners.
51
00:03:44,701 --> 00:03:46,001
Ah, that was yesterday.
52
00:03:46,688 --> 00:03:48,808
Hi Jack.
-Hi Chippie. 22.
53
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,722
Ought to start breaking for you soon.
A guy can't play tough luck all the time
54
00:03:51,750 --> 00:03:53,631
I'll believe it when you
begin to pay off.
55
00:03:53,667 --> 00:03:55,667
It'll be a pleasure. Here.
56
00:03:55,692 --> 00:03:57,322
Scratch sheet on the house.
57
00:03:57,341 --> 00:03:59,341
Something in there might really pay off.
58
00:03:59,357 --> 00:04:00,793
Hi Chippie.
-Hi Mal.
59
00:04:00,843 --> 00:04:02,388
How's the banking business?
-Fine.
60
00:04:02,535 --> 00:04:05,514
All right, how much do I owe you?
And slug me gently, will you?
61
00:04:05,557 --> 00:04:06,467
Forty even.
62
00:04:06,495 --> 00:04:08,105
You ought to start playing
some chalk horses.
63
00:04:08,130 --> 00:04:09,656
Too many of those long shots run out.
64
00:04:09,692 --> 00:04:11,692
I don't get any bang out of those
even money payoffs.
65
00:04:11,742 --> 00:04:13,634
For me, it's boxcars or nothing.
66
00:04:13,719 --> 00:04:15,142
'Course this week it's nothing.
67
00:04:15,177 --> 00:04:17,177
But, if you can carry me
till Saturday, little man.
68
00:04:17,201 --> 00:04:19,201
Sure, Mal, anytime.
69
00:04:19,251 --> 00:04:21,251
You know me, Chippie.
70
00:04:21,540 --> 00:04:24,254
I don't see why a guy like you
should always be broke.
71
00:04:24,754 --> 00:04:26,754
Why, if I had your...
72
00:04:28,700 --> 00:04:30,076
Hey.
73
00:04:30,847 --> 00:04:32,847
How about having a cup of coffee
with me?
74
00:04:33,109 --> 00:04:34,630
Well, you're buying I hope.
75
00:04:34,773 --> 00:04:36,773
Sure.
-All right.
76
00:04:37,401 --> 00:04:38,912
Two coffees.
77
00:04:38,962 --> 00:04:39,972
Right.
78
00:04:40,467 --> 00:04:42,467
Say uh...
79
00:04:42,488 --> 00:04:44,282
You wouldn't want to carry me
for another five, would you?
80
00:04:44,299 --> 00:04:46,114
I like Big Day in the sixth at Aubrey.
81
00:04:46,140 --> 00:04:47,223
Big Day?
-Yeah.
82
00:04:47,264 --> 00:04:48,483
10 to 1, huh?
-Yeah.
83
00:04:48,532 --> 00:04:50,619
It ain't the money, Mal, it's just that
he don't look so good.
84
00:04:50,650 --> 00:04:52,953
All I can lose is five bucks
and if it wins, I break even.
85
00:04:52,975 --> 00:04:54,758
How about it, Chippie?
86
00:04:54,808 --> 00:04:56,226
Five straight on Big Day.
87
00:04:56,305 --> 00:04:58,584
You know the only good thing
about putting bets on these?
88
00:04:58,634 --> 00:05:01,328
I don't get indigestion swallowing them
every time a cop walks in.
89
00:05:02,434 --> 00:05:04,434
You know, kid, if I were you,
I'd lay off the races.
90
00:05:04,620 --> 00:05:05,911
That's the sucker's end of the racket.
91
00:05:06,411 --> 00:05:08,411
All right, so maybe I'm losing
a customer.
92
00:05:08,668 --> 00:05:10,842
But you're the kind of guy that's always
on the prowl for a fast buck.
93
00:05:10,874 --> 00:05:12,156
And you're not going to make it
off the ponies.
94
00:05:12,178 --> 00:05:14,178
How do you know? I might hit a streak.
Other guys have.
95
00:05:14,228 --> 00:05:15,837
You're still taking the odds, Mal.
96
00:05:16,125 --> 00:05:18,604
You ought to be able to turn a buck on
the side if you really need money.
97
00:05:18,731 --> 00:05:19,968
Lend me a nickel, will you?
98
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,568
Here you are working for peanuts.
99
00:05:21,612 --> 00:05:23,775
When you got something up there
that's worth a million bucks.
100
00:05:23,825 --> 00:05:24,842
Yeah?
101
00:05:25,158 --> 00:05:27,945
Anytime you figure a way I can
put it in the bank, I'll believe it.
102
00:05:27,995 --> 00:05:29,854
You could be rolling in dough.
103
00:05:29,906 --> 00:05:32,778
You got a know-how with
telephones and electronics
104
00:05:32,828 --> 00:05:34,403
that's worth plenty to the right guy.
105
00:05:34,639 --> 00:05:37,264
Dames, clothes, automobiles,
106
00:05:37,290 --> 00:05:39,550
You could have anything you want, kid,
if you knew the right guy.
107
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:40,910
You said that before.
108
00:05:40,970 --> 00:05:42,348
I know the right guy, Mal.
109
00:05:42,380 --> 00:05:43,431
He needs help.
110
00:05:43,481 --> 00:05:45,481
So why shouldn't you be the guy
that makes the buck?
111
00:05:46,039 --> 00:05:48,893
His name is Vince Wallace.
He runs the Tri-State Press.
112
00:05:49,380 --> 00:05:51,049
I'll give you a run down on him
in a minute.
113
00:05:51,099 --> 00:05:52,797
I want to get your bet in
before post time.
114
00:06:03,759 --> 00:06:05,461
Hello, Moe?
115
00:06:05,505 --> 00:06:06,671
Chippie.
116
00:06:06,721 --> 00:06:08,721
What's the last post
for the sixth at Aubrey?
117
00:06:09,266 --> 00:06:10,599
4:20?
118
00:06:11,534 --> 00:06:14,580
Five to win on Big Day for Mal G.
119
00:06:14,997 --> 00:06:16,220
Yeah, that's all.
120
00:06:23,024 --> 00:06:25,451
Well, now that I owe you another fin,
I guess I have to listen to you.
121
00:06:25,545 --> 00:06:28,068
All right, what is it that I've got that
this Wallace can't leave alone?
122
00:06:28,110 --> 00:06:30,110
This Tri-State is a wire service.
123
00:06:30,140 --> 00:06:32,140
It furnishes bookmakers with
all the dope for every race.
124
00:06:32,190 --> 00:06:33,239
Direct from the track.
125
00:06:33,576 --> 00:06:35,576
Would you like to see how
the other half lives?
126
00:06:36,628 --> 00:06:37,953
Yeah.
127
00:06:54,297 --> 00:06:55,729
Hey.
128
00:06:56,506 --> 00:06:57,951
Are they kidding?
129
00:06:58,001 --> 00:06:59,306
BE FREE
OF WORRY
130
00:07:03,552 --> 00:07:05,453
Hello, Jake.
-Hi.
131
00:07:05,503 --> 00:07:07,503
Got a man for the golden furnace.
-OK.
132
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:46,829
I tell you the wire broke down.
133
00:07:46,879 --> 00:07:48,879
Can I help it if we were late
with the prices?
134
00:07:48,998 --> 00:07:50,894
Nothing but beefs.
135
00:07:50,944 --> 00:07:54,386
Half the time they're so drunk
you don't know what race is going.
136
00:07:54,523 --> 00:07:56,523
What can I do for you, Chippie?
-Nothing.
137
00:07:56,573 --> 00:07:57,934
We're gonna do something for you.
138
00:07:58,100 --> 00:08:00,280
This is Mal Granger, Vince Wallace.
-How are you?
139
00:08:00,330 --> 00:08:02,178
Mal's with the telephone company.
140
00:08:02,376 --> 00:08:04,376
He's smart and knows electronics.
141
00:08:04,598 --> 00:08:06,369
Telephone company, huh?
-Yeah.
142
00:08:06,417 --> 00:08:08,105
I'm glad to know you Granger.
143
00:08:08,134 --> 00:08:10,248
Can I buy you a drink?
-No thanks. I don't drink in the daytime
144
00:08:10,271 --> 00:08:11,586
I get into enough trouble without it.
145
00:08:11,607 --> 00:08:12,567
Don't let him kid you.
146
00:08:12,596 --> 00:08:14,737
Aside from liking the ponies,
Mal's a steady citizen.
147
00:08:14,787 --> 00:08:16,486
I'm glad you came, Granger.
148
00:08:16,563 --> 00:08:18,800
Ever seen a layout like this before?
-No.
149
00:08:18,850 --> 00:08:20,140
I'll show you around.
150
00:08:22,113 --> 00:08:24,946
A bookmaker can't exist
without race results.
151
00:08:25,002 --> 00:08:27,898
Right now the only wire service in town
is my outfit.
152
00:08:27,954 --> 00:08:29,954
You see that telegraph key?
153
00:08:30,104 --> 00:08:32,104
That's the backbone of the whole racket.
154
00:08:32,472 --> 00:08:35,593
You see, my wire service is legitimate.
155
00:08:36,093 --> 00:08:38,680
There's no law against selling
this information to anybody.
156
00:08:39,180 --> 00:08:41,180
Those guys are talking to
bookmakers right now.
157
00:08:41,241 --> 00:08:42,574
That's live dope.
158
00:08:42,624 --> 00:08:44,208
We charge them plenty.
159
00:08:44,348 --> 00:08:46,312
They get a running description
of everything
160
00:08:46,337 --> 00:08:48,043
that's taking place at all the tracks.
161
00:08:48,093 --> 00:08:52,770
The last odds, jockey changes,
scratches, post and off time,
162
00:08:53,117 --> 00:08:55,364
the actual running of the race
and the results.
163
00:08:55,414 --> 00:08:57,414
All with split second timing.
164
00:08:57,933 --> 00:09:00,704
Of course, some of the tracks
don't help us any but...
165
00:09:00,927 --> 00:09:02,747
We've got ways of getting
the information out
166
00:09:02,777 --> 00:09:03,743
whether they like it or not.
167
00:09:03,758 --> 00:09:04,547
I get it.
168
00:09:04,554 --> 00:09:07,887
But if it was my outfit, I wouldn't want
to rely on a one lung setup like this.
169
00:09:07,900 --> 00:09:09,254
Too many things can go wrong.
170
00:09:09,279 --> 00:09:10,538
You're telling me.
171
00:09:10,588 --> 00:09:11,992
Come on back to the office a minute.
172
00:09:12,230 --> 00:09:13,555
Close the door, Chippie.
173
00:09:13,740 --> 00:09:15,740
What I want to do is expand.
174
00:09:15,790 --> 00:09:17,183
That's where the real gravy lies.
175
00:09:17,239 --> 00:09:18,113
Let me show you something.
176
00:09:18,415 --> 00:09:20,889
Right now, there isn't a bigger outfit
in the whole state.
177
00:09:21,083 --> 00:09:23,796
So, the first guy that comes along
and gives bang up results
178
00:09:23,846 --> 00:09:24,915
is gonna make a hat full.
179
00:09:25,086 --> 00:09:27,415
There are hundreds of bookmakers
in every one of these towns.
180
00:09:27,496 --> 00:09:30,295
Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland,
181
00:09:30,345 --> 00:09:33,364
Sacramento, Stockton, Fresno, San Diego.
182
00:09:33,741 --> 00:09:35,741
Are you really hep to electronics?
183
00:09:35,815 --> 00:09:37,188
I know what I'm doing.
184
00:09:37,217 --> 00:09:40,061
What I need is a way to
distribute my information
185
00:09:40,085 --> 00:09:41,857
all over the state at the same time.
186
00:09:41,868 --> 00:09:43,491
It would cost you dough
but you could do it.
187
00:09:43,511 --> 00:09:45,095
Did you ever hear of relay amplifiers?
188
00:09:45,104 --> 00:09:46,118
Relay amplifier?
189
00:09:46,122 --> 00:09:48,570
Yeah, that's a new gadget that was
developed so people in different cities
190
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,867
could listen in to a telephone
conference at the same time.
191
00:09:50,887 --> 00:09:53,143
Could you set one up for me so it would
work right out of L.A.?
192
00:09:53,171 --> 00:09:54,126
Oh, sure.
193
00:09:54,176 --> 00:09:57,261
You could run wires right out of this
basement to any city you wanted.
194
00:09:57,338 --> 00:09:59,338
Then the bookies in the other cities
could get the results
195
00:09:59,377 --> 00:10:00,953
just like the guys
in the next room here.
196
00:10:00,981 --> 00:10:01,703
Good.
197
00:10:01,753 --> 00:10:04,318
I'd get rid of that telegrapher and
set up a teletype system.
198
00:10:04,386 --> 00:10:06,909
Then you have a guy at a microphone
broadcast the results
199
00:10:06,948 --> 00:10:09,260
just like a regular news broadcast
from a radio station.
200
00:10:09,284 --> 00:10:11,387
Get the equipment and
set it up for me like that
201
00:10:11,412 --> 00:10:13,517
and it's worth $125 a week to you.
202
00:10:13,567 --> 00:10:15,567
Just as technical man
to keep it running.
203
00:10:18,457 --> 00:10:19,932
I'll make it a hundred and fifty.
204
00:10:19,982 --> 00:10:21,191
Is it a deal?
205
00:10:21,413 --> 00:10:23,413
I always knew there was some way
to beat the races.
206
00:10:23,463 --> 00:10:24,950
That'll do for now.
-Good.
207
00:10:25,019 --> 00:10:27,564
One of you guys better count
your fingers. Hello, Chippie.
208
00:10:27,594 --> 00:10:29,594
Sorry to be late, Vince. There was
a little trouble at the bank.
209
00:10:29,622 --> 00:10:30,901
They didn't like some of those checks.
210
00:10:30,915 --> 00:10:32,010
More bum checks, huh?
211
00:10:32,022 --> 00:10:33,740
Mal Granger, Trudy Maxwell.
212
00:10:33,750 --> 00:10:34,743
How are you?
-Hi.
213
00:10:34,753 --> 00:10:36,574
He's going to put in
a few improvements around here.
214
00:10:36,583 --> 00:10:38,851
You mean like fresh air?
I'm beginning to feel like a termite
215
00:10:38,860 --> 00:10:40,434
working out of this basement
all the time.
216
00:10:40,452 --> 00:10:42,148
Yeah, you could stand
a little air conditioning.
217
00:10:42,166 --> 00:10:44,525
When I have time, you might give me
your ideas on the subject.
218
00:10:44,547 --> 00:10:46,224
You've got a new approach.
219
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,306
First guy I ever met that made
air conditioning sound like etchings.
220
00:10:49,327 --> 00:10:50,632
I've got things to do, Mal
221
00:10:50,642 --> 00:10:52,766
You'll start work tomorrow, huh?
The faster, the better.
222
00:10:52,816 --> 00:10:54,816
You can say that again.
Nice to have met you, Vince.
223
00:10:55,387 --> 00:10:56,709
It was my pleasure.
224
00:10:56,774 --> 00:10:58,774
Goodbye.
-So long.
225
00:11:24,904 --> 00:11:26,904
That was a good dinner, wasn't it?
226
00:11:26,933 --> 00:11:28,545
The steaks are delicious.
227
00:11:28,564 --> 00:11:30,233
To think a few hours ago
I was a wage slave.
228
00:11:30,247 --> 00:11:31,858
You ought to get rid of that.
-Uh-uh.
229
00:11:31,908 --> 00:11:34,325
I still can't figure out why you
quit the phone company.
230
00:11:34,359 --> 00:11:36,577
Honey, I got to thinking.
Are telephones here to stay?
231
00:11:36,627 --> 00:11:39,292
Sure, they're here to stay.
You were doing fine with the company.
232
00:11:39,530 --> 00:11:41,860
I was already beginning
to make a few plans.
233
00:11:41,897 --> 00:11:44,106
Yeah? What kind of plans?
234
00:11:44,134 --> 00:11:46,406
You know. I thought maybe
after your next raise...
235
00:11:46,419 --> 00:11:48,306
Honey, there's nothing wrong
with your plans.
236
00:11:48,326 --> 00:11:50,582
You just got the wrong guy.
-What do you mean?
237
00:11:50,601 --> 00:11:53,340
You just hang on to your plans, baby,
but let go of me.
238
00:11:53,390 --> 00:11:55,390
How are your plans...for tonight?
239
00:12:05,341 --> 00:12:06,555
Hey.
240
00:12:06,626 --> 00:12:08,181
What are they doing here?
241
00:12:08,231 --> 00:12:09,728
Excuse us.
242
00:12:14,043 --> 00:12:16,043
This is another one of Vince's angles.
243
00:12:16,077 --> 00:12:18,362
He runs a check cashing service
for bookmakers.
244
00:12:18,412 --> 00:12:19,921
He's sharp, all right.
245
00:12:20,183 --> 00:12:22,697
I'm telling you right now,
I won't discount any more
246
00:12:22,732 --> 00:12:23,788
checks at the old rate.
247
00:12:23,815 --> 00:12:26,295
If you want to duck income tax,
you get eighty cents on a buck
248
00:12:26,322 --> 00:12:27,640
for every stiff and no more.
249
00:12:27,658 --> 00:12:28,400
It's not that, Vince.
250
00:12:28,418 --> 00:12:30,647
He can't keep up the payments
on the 3,000 you advanced him.
251
00:12:30,661 --> 00:12:32,012
It ain't my fault, Mr. Walters.
252
00:12:32,032 --> 00:12:34,834
I only borrowed that dough because I
went overboard. I couldn't pay off.
253
00:12:34,858 --> 00:12:37,055
So what? I want my dough
and the interest.
254
00:12:37,090 --> 00:12:39,879
If you can't keep up your payments,
I'll cut you off the service.
255
00:12:39,910 --> 00:12:41,655
If you do that, I'm out of business.
256
00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:43,916
I gotta have that service, Mr. Walters.
257
00:12:43,966 --> 00:12:45,966
If you could only give me a little time.
258
00:12:46,441 --> 00:12:48,003
I'll give you one week.
259
00:12:48,277 --> 00:12:51,313
Thanks, Mr. Walters, thanks. I'll...
-Get out.
260
00:12:54,478 --> 00:12:57,537
For ten percent interest,
you have to expect a little trouble.
261
00:12:57,590 --> 00:12:59,732
We got 3,600 in stiffs yesterday.
262
00:12:59,782 --> 00:13:03,416
Yes, but you can't make any dough
playing handball with rubber checks.
263
00:13:09,048 --> 00:13:11,587
I want to see a girl about a boy.
264
00:13:15,847 --> 00:13:19,124
I was feeling a little corny just now
and couldn't resist coming over
265
00:13:19,174 --> 00:13:21,174
to tell you what a small world
I think it is.
266
00:13:21,211 --> 00:13:23,494
Oh yes, you're new little boy we hired
267
00:13:23,522 --> 00:13:25,522
to string wires up around the place.
-That's right.
268
00:13:25,564 --> 00:13:28,478
I'm also very good at filling in
when people's dates don't show up.
269
00:13:28,503 --> 00:13:29,664
Mine always do.
270
00:13:29,714 --> 00:13:33,076
I'm sure they do. But I thought maybe
you had a daughter around my age.
271
00:13:33,135 --> 00:13:34,496
What do you want?
272
00:13:34,538 --> 00:13:36,833
We're getting up a game
of hopscotch tonight and
273
00:13:36,863 --> 00:13:38,186
could you play on my side?
274
00:13:38,219 --> 00:13:39,915
You're wasting your breath, Granger.
275
00:13:39,936 --> 00:13:42,202
Trudy's all business.
Believe me, I know.
276
00:13:42,222 --> 00:13:44,222
You sound like an adding machine.
Hello, Mr. Walters.
277
00:13:44,241 --> 00:13:46,507
I only dropped over
because I had an idea.
278
00:13:46,521 --> 00:13:48,626
Chippie tells me that Trudy
works the races for you.
279
00:13:48,651 --> 00:13:51,086
And I thought maybe I ought to go
out there with her and uh...
280
00:13:51,112 --> 00:13:52,413
See just what the setup is.
281
00:13:52,459 --> 00:13:53,888
You can do that later.
282
00:13:53,915 --> 00:13:55,782
For the first few weeks you're
gonna have enough to do
283
00:13:55,832 --> 00:13:57,149
wiring up that new system.
284
00:13:58,155 --> 00:14:00,857
Well, I'm uh...I'm glad
we had this little talk.
285
00:14:04,468 --> 00:14:07,630
SHAKE-UP ON L.A. POLICE FORCE
NEW GANGSTER SQUAD FORMED
286
00:14:10,283 --> 00:14:11,677
How are you, lieutenant?
287
00:14:11,727 --> 00:14:12,905
Hello, Wright.
288
00:14:13,477 --> 00:14:15,477
Thanks for requesting me for your squad.
289
00:14:15,516 --> 00:14:16,524
Sit down.
290
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:17,465
Where do I start?
291
00:14:17,501 --> 00:14:20,677
You have a reputation of being a guy
nobody can approach.
292
00:14:20,727 --> 00:14:23,670
That's why I asked for you when
they gave me the gangster squad.
293
00:14:25,007 --> 00:14:27,719
You can start by checking up
on the bookie racket.
294
00:14:27,832 --> 00:14:30,427
They've been having things
their own way too long.
295
00:14:31,692 --> 00:14:33,532
There's one outfit in particular.
296
00:14:33,588 --> 00:14:36,394
They call themselves the
Libertt Finance Company.
297
00:14:37,565 --> 00:14:39,688
That's all we have on them so far.
298
00:14:41,759 --> 00:14:43,282
There was enough there to convince me
299
00:14:43,307 --> 00:14:45,147
that the Libertt Finance Co.
was the front
300
00:14:45,178 --> 00:14:48,412
for one of California's largest
bookmaking organizations.
301
00:14:48,427 --> 00:14:51,508
We didn't know then that Vince Walters'
Tri-State Wire Service
302
00:14:51,539 --> 00:14:52,942
was actually behind it.
303
00:14:52,992 --> 00:14:54,992
And that Mal Granger
was the technical brains.
304
00:14:55,047 --> 00:14:58,944
His improvements ran the daily take
up to staggering figures.
305
00:15:08,700 --> 00:15:12,136
They're on the track in Chicago
and ready to go.
306
00:15:12,186 --> 00:15:14,621
Where's Vince?
-In Mal's workshop.
307
00:15:15,291 --> 00:15:19,452
And there they go. They're ready
in Chicago at 36 1/2
308
00:15:19,637 --> 00:15:21,637
It's a switch on those
walkie-talkie radios, huh?
309
00:15:21,667 --> 00:15:22,963
That's right and miniature.
310
00:15:22,987 --> 00:15:24,515
If it works.
-It'll work.
311
00:15:24,531 --> 00:15:26,331
He receives me
through this hearing aid, see?
312
00:15:26,353 --> 00:15:28,602
And the amplifier and microphone become
a transmitter
313
00:15:28,622 --> 00:15:29,749
and that's how he gets back at me.
314
00:15:29,770 --> 00:15:31,294
His cane here serves as an aerial.
315
00:15:31,304 --> 00:15:33,681
Pop, just keep that ring
right on the metal band, will you?
316
00:15:33,695 --> 00:15:35,495
The only trouble we might get into
317
00:15:35,511 --> 00:15:37,653
is if a federal monitor car
picked up his frequency.
318
00:15:37,670 --> 00:15:39,670
Then they could triangulate the beam.
How does that feel, Pop?
319
00:15:39,691 --> 00:15:43,427
Fine, fine. However I must say
that I feel utterly ridiculous
320
00:15:43,443 --> 00:15:44,651
being wired for sound.
321
00:15:44,677 --> 00:15:46,374
Still the erector set kid, huh?
322
00:15:46,392 --> 00:15:48,617
Well, why work when
electricity will do it for you?
323
00:15:48,625 --> 00:15:50,028
There's things it hasn't been able
to do for me.
324
00:15:50,036 --> 00:15:52,036
Mal wants to try out this new
gadget today, Trudy.
325
00:15:52,045 --> 00:15:54,045
I thought maybe you'd better take him
out to the track with you.
326
00:15:54,054 --> 00:15:55,320
Show him how you work.
327
00:15:55,334 --> 00:15:56,947
Things have getting
a little hot out there.
328
00:15:56,962 --> 00:15:58,121
It'll be my pleasure.
329
00:15:58,171 --> 00:15:59,204
Madame.
330
00:16:40,525 --> 00:16:42,121
Eight on top.
331
00:16:42,631 --> 00:16:43,676
Twelve.
332
00:16:44,323 --> 00:16:45,505
Two and a half.
333
00:16:47,001 --> 00:16:48,156
Eight.
334
00:16:49,599 --> 00:16:50,788
Two.
335
00:16:51,617 --> 00:16:53,288
and twenty on the bottom.
336
00:16:55,455 --> 00:16:56,705
All set, Pop.
337
00:16:56,770 --> 00:16:58,770
Let's test it once from the grandstand.
338
00:16:59,512 --> 00:17:01,827
Officer, can you tell me
where the coffee shop is?
339
00:17:01,877 --> 00:17:03,043
Right over the grandstand.
340
00:17:03,513 --> 00:17:05,297
I say, officer...
341
00:17:05,586 --> 00:17:07,793
You're just the man I was looking for.
342
00:17:07,836 --> 00:17:09,808
My eyesight isn't too good.
343
00:17:09,849 --> 00:17:10,918
I wonder.
344
00:17:10,956 --> 00:17:12,956
Could you give me
the odds on this race?
345
00:17:13,006 --> 00:17:15,234
Sure. Number 1, 8 to1
346
00:17:16,721 --> 00:17:18,721
Number 1, 8 to 1
347
00:17:18,771 --> 00:17:20,543
Number 2, 12 to 1
348
00:17:20,575 --> 00:17:22,575
Number 3, 5 to 2
349
00:17:22,625 --> 00:17:24,081
Number 4, 5 to 2
350
00:17:24,223 --> 00:17:25,756
Number 5, 8 to 1
351
00:17:25,821 --> 00:17:26,906
Number 6
352
00:17:26,939 --> 00:17:27,844
2 to 1
353
00:17:27,860 --> 00:17:29,529
Number 7, 20 to 1
354
00:17:29,579 --> 00:17:31,579
Thank you, sir, thank you.
-Don't mention it.
355
00:17:31,856 --> 00:17:33,210
This is the life, Sonny.
356
00:17:33,327 --> 00:17:36,663
You put horses and radio together and
what do you get? Nothing but money.
357
00:17:36,702 --> 00:17:38,531
You mean Vince's got it.
358
00:17:38,555 --> 00:17:40,158
We're just a couple of hired hands.
359
00:17:40,191 --> 00:17:41,625
I don't see him cutting you in.
360
00:17:41,660 --> 00:17:44,119
That's because I'm the shy type.
I haven't asked him yet.
361
00:17:44,169 --> 00:17:46,169
When the time comes, he'll put out.
362
00:17:46,379 --> 00:17:48,379
About time for those dogs to get going.
363
00:17:49,213 --> 00:17:50,646
Hey, they got Trudy.
364
00:17:50,696 --> 00:17:53,171
The pigs just grabbed her.
They're taking her away.
365
00:17:59,749 --> 00:18:01,889
Hey, Pop, take over.
They just pinched Trudy.
366
00:18:01,945 --> 00:18:03,149
Sonny.
367
00:18:04,317 --> 00:18:06,062
You see, child? You're dated.
368
00:18:06,112 --> 00:18:09,332
From now on, the wire service
is strictly Superman stuff.
369
00:18:09,832 --> 00:18:10,918
What happened?
370
00:18:10,965 --> 00:18:12,965
They gave me the old heave-ho.
371
00:18:13,015 --> 00:18:15,015
Warned me never to darken
their track again.
372
00:18:15,264 --> 00:18:17,104
I guess that washes me out.
373
00:18:17,443 --> 00:18:20,404
You don't know anybody who needs
a slightly used signaller, do you?
374
00:18:20,457 --> 00:18:22,457
I'll put an ad in the paper for you.
375
00:18:22,507 --> 00:18:24,507
I'm afraid I'm too much of a specialist.
376
00:18:24,596 --> 00:18:27,853
Guess I should have married the boy
whose father owned the supermarket.
377
00:18:27,887 --> 00:18:30,191
Uh-uh. I'm allergic to that word
if you don't mind.
378
00:18:30,231 --> 00:18:31,919
Supermarket?
-No, marriage.
379
00:18:31,958 --> 00:18:33,512
Makes me break out in a rash.
380
00:18:33,541 --> 00:18:36,394
Don't worry. I won't be around long
enough to start you scratching.
381
00:18:36,444 --> 00:18:39,322
Maybe you ought to stick around. Maybe
we can find something else for you to do
382
00:18:39,556 --> 00:18:41,556
We?
-That's right, we.
383
00:18:41,867 --> 00:18:44,683
You sound like someone who thinks he's
going someplace.
384
00:18:45,693 --> 00:18:49,332
I'm not one to brag but...
Why don't you stick around and find out?
385
00:18:49,832 --> 00:18:51,832
Might be interesting at that.
386
00:18:55,527 --> 00:18:57,527
Look, Ma, one hand.
387
00:18:59,444 --> 00:19:01,444
Keep calm, little man. Keep calm.
388
00:19:01,563 --> 00:19:04,135
You sure it's all right to try it here?
Suppose the cops saw us?
389
00:19:04,169 --> 00:19:06,169
All we're doing is using
their wire fence for an aerial.
390
00:19:06,219 --> 00:19:08,039
If it works here,
it'll work at the racetrack.
391
00:19:08,973 --> 00:19:10,808
This is a low frequency transmitter,
Vince.
392
00:19:10,858 --> 00:19:12,858
I'm saving it for the day they
crack down on Pop.
393
00:19:12,916 --> 00:19:15,453
With the dough I put into this stuff,
I could own a radio station.
394
00:19:15,494 --> 00:19:17,203
With the dough you're making,
you could buy a network.
395
00:19:17,253 --> 00:19:18,478
Let's have your leg, Chippie.
396
00:19:19,693 --> 00:19:21,182
Hope you don't get electrocuted.
397
00:19:21,232 --> 00:19:23,232
Always kidding...I hope.
398
00:19:24,731 --> 00:19:26,052
Hey, what's that?
399
00:19:26,223 --> 00:19:27,903
That spring needle sets up the circuit.
400
00:19:28,003 --> 00:19:31,058
The wires on your leg run
to a low frequency carrier transmitter.
401
00:19:31,108 --> 00:19:32,473
The batteries are in that case.
402
00:19:32,956 --> 00:19:34,956
We put this telegraph key
in your right pants pocket.
403
00:19:35,006 --> 00:19:37,483
I'm left-handed.
All right. Your left pants pocket.
404
00:19:37,693 --> 00:19:39,974
Now all you gotta do is
make like a telegrapher.
405
00:19:40,062 --> 00:19:41,117
Come on.
406
00:19:43,849 --> 00:19:46,708
When he leans against this wire fence,
he's a walking radio station.
407
00:19:46,809 --> 00:19:49,272
Of course, at the track, he'll have
all of these gadgets under his clothes.
408
00:19:49,424 --> 00:19:51,185
I still don't get
all of this electrical stuff.
409
00:19:51,247 --> 00:19:52,963
What I want to know is
how do we pick him up.
410
00:19:53,005 --> 00:19:54,510
That's what we got the car for.
411
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,182
It's rigged to pick up his signals.
412
00:19:56,220 --> 00:19:58,660
The car keeps circling the track
while he broadcasts.
413
00:19:58,710 --> 00:20:00,912
Then they phone the dope to you.
Want to try it, Vince?
414
00:20:00,987 --> 00:20:01,927
Let's go.
415
00:20:12,473 --> 00:20:14,226
You sure got the angles, Mal.
416
00:20:14,499 --> 00:20:16,840
If it was anybody but Vince,
he'd give you part of the take.
417
00:20:16,890 --> 00:20:18,178
He'll cut me in, Chippie.
418
00:20:18,678 --> 00:20:20,678
I got him by the short hairs right now.
419
00:20:21,194 --> 00:20:22,894
I think they're ready. Start sending.
420
00:20:22,955 --> 00:20:24,057
Here's hoping.
421
00:20:24,109 --> 00:20:25,394
Don't worry. It'll work.
422
00:20:25,432 --> 00:20:26,519
Believe me, I know.
423
00:20:26,569 --> 00:20:29,401
I was down here myself and tried it
last night. Come on.
424
00:20:38,627 --> 00:20:41,503
Nice wine, nice lunch, nice girl.
425
00:20:41,783 --> 00:20:43,040
Nice day.
426
00:20:43,842 --> 00:20:45,540
That seems to cover everything.
427
00:20:45,665 --> 00:20:47,298
What's so special about today?
428
00:20:47,725 --> 00:20:49,725
I don't know. Days are like people.
429
00:20:49,831 --> 00:20:51,583
They have a kind of personality
of their own.
430
00:20:51,726 --> 00:20:53,661
Take today, for instance. I like today.
431
00:20:54,042 --> 00:20:55,046
Any reason?
432
00:20:55,409 --> 00:20:57,409
I got a hunch it's liable to be
lucky for me.
433
00:20:58,277 --> 00:21:00,277
Yep, I think today's my lucky day.
434
00:21:00,327 --> 00:21:01,326
Excuse me.
435
00:21:01,571 --> 00:21:03,571
Mr. Granger, something's gone sour
at the track.
436
00:21:03,604 --> 00:21:05,705
The wires have gone dead.
Every book in town's been calling.
437
00:21:05,755 --> 00:21:07,755
Even I can't get through.
The phones are swamped.
438
00:21:07,825 --> 00:21:09,825
I've been afraid of something like this.
439
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,290
I think things will just have to
work themselves out.
440
00:21:12,340 --> 00:21:13,870
But, Mr. Granger...
-You heard me.
441
00:21:16,776 --> 00:21:20,236
This wouldn't have anything to do with
being your lucky day, would it?
442
00:21:20,416 --> 00:21:22,416
Like arranging to have Pop picked up?
443
00:21:22,998 --> 00:21:24,998
Why would I want to do
anything like that?
444
00:21:25,498 --> 00:21:27,498
You say the FCC picked him up?
445
00:21:28,649 --> 00:21:30,649
Well, hold everything.
I'll get Granger right on it.
446
00:21:30,699 --> 00:21:32,497
He's got another way of
handling the track.
447
00:21:34,341 --> 00:21:36,012
Where's Mal?
448
00:21:36,046 --> 00:21:37,799
He took Trudy to lunch
over at the Blue Boar.
449
00:21:37,849 --> 00:21:39,407
Get him on the phone right away.
-Yes, sir.
450
00:21:39,590 --> 00:21:41,590
Wire's down.
451
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:43,640
Wire trouble. Keep it closed.
452
00:21:45,615 --> 00:21:46,909
Rocco?
453
00:21:47,016 --> 00:21:48,418
Put Granger on.
454
00:21:48,753 --> 00:21:50,014
Wire trouble.
455
00:21:51,595 --> 00:21:54,601
Mal, what kind of an outfit you think
I'm running around here anyhow?
456
00:21:54,651 --> 00:21:56,120
Get over here. We're in trouble.
457
00:21:59,946 --> 00:22:02,392
You'd like it better
if I came there, huh?
458
00:22:02,442 --> 00:22:03,930
Why, for two cents I'd...
459
00:22:05,775 --> 00:22:08,707
All right. I'll be right over.
Wait in Rocco's office for me.
460
00:22:13,911 --> 00:22:16,468
Well, get it up. We've got a lot
of work to do.
461
00:22:16,501 --> 00:22:18,630
You've got to get a man out to the track
with that new equipment.
462
00:22:18,658 --> 00:22:19,944
They knocked off Pop today.
463
00:22:19,966 --> 00:22:21,488
You can quit shouting, Vince.
I heard you.
464
00:22:21,538 --> 00:22:22,970
But maybe you didn't hear me right.
465
00:22:23,688 --> 00:22:25,936
I'm not taking the new stuff
out to the track.
466
00:22:26,436 --> 00:22:28,189
So that's the way it is, huh?
467
00:22:28,581 --> 00:22:30,581
OK, I'll get somebody else
to take it out.
468
00:22:30,623 --> 00:22:33,290
Not with my equipment, you won't.
I've already taken it out of the shop.
469
00:22:33,340 --> 00:22:37,017
I know it was your money but it was my
brains that made you that dough.
470
00:22:37,181 --> 00:22:39,053
You think you can hijack me
471
00:22:39,077 --> 00:22:41,369
just because I gave a telephone
company sucker a break?
472
00:22:41,387 --> 00:22:42,273
Get smart, Vince.
473
00:22:42,284 --> 00:22:44,160
Ever since I hooked up your outfit all
over the state,
474
00:22:44,173 --> 00:22:45,714
you've been rolling in cabbage
and I know it.
475
00:22:45,746 --> 00:22:47,746
Your take is five times what it was.
476
00:22:47,796 --> 00:22:49,796
But to keep it that way,
you gotta keep me.
477
00:22:53,299 --> 00:22:54,611
And if I don't?
478
00:22:55,004 --> 00:22:57,883
I've handled guys like you before.
You better think that over.
479
00:22:57,916 --> 00:22:58,874
I don't have to.
480
00:22:58,916 --> 00:23:01,247
You never got rid of anything or anybody
that could make you a buck.
481
00:23:01,285 --> 00:23:04,186
With that new equipment,
I can get a lot of guys to finance me.
482
00:23:04,231 --> 00:23:06,415
Your books are gonna be looking around
for a new service.
483
00:23:06,465 --> 00:23:08,775
So, as of right now,
you're out of business.
484
00:23:10,346 --> 00:23:11,662
What do you want?
485
00:23:11,816 --> 00:23:13,816
Twenty percent of your take
from everything.
486
00:23:13,863 --> 00:23:15,412
That still leaves you 80%.
487
00:23:15,462 --> 00:23:17,315
That's better than 100% of nothing.
488
00:23:22,998 --> 00:23:24,257
OK.
489
00:23:24,693 --> 00:23:25,725
Thanks.
490
00:23:29,810 --> 00:23:31,400
Hello, Syd? Mal.
491
00:23:31,443 --> 00:23:33,882
You know that new show
down at the Biltmore?
492
00:23:33,925 --> 00:23:34,901
Yeah.
493
00:23:34,951 --> 00:23:36,951
Any chance you can get me a couple
for tonight up front?
494
00:23:37,159 --> 00:23:38,185
You can?
495
00:23:38,301 --> 00:23:39,815
That's swell, thanks.
496
00:23:40,699 --> 00:23:42,123
Nice guy, that Syd.
497
00:23:43,340 --> 00:23:46,219
During the next three months,
the gangster squad knocked off
498
00:23:46,269 --> 00:23:47,771
all the bookies it could find.
499
00:23:47,995 --> 00:23:50,271
But they popped up like rats
in another hole.
500
00:23:50,416 --> 00:23:53,017
By then, I knew the only way
to drive them out of business
501
00:23:53,067 --> 00:23:55,067
was to crack down on the
Tri-State Wire Service.
502
00:23:55,787 --> 00:23:57,787
But so far, they were within the law.
503
00:23:57,989 --> 00:23:59,537
One thing I was certain of
504
00:23:59,587 --> 00:24:02,317
The bookmakers were paying off
to the service at a drive-in.
505
00:24:02,434 --> 00:24:04,434
We had these small fry marked for arrest
506
00:24:04,484 --> 00:24:06,484
but it was the big shots we were after.
507
00:24:06,953 --> 00:24:09,862
I staked out the place for a few days
looking the boys over.
508
00:24:09,912 --> 00:24:13,319
And I found that Mal Granger was
beginning to throw his weight around.
509
00:24:14,539 --> 00:24:16,243
Lemon.
-Yeah.
510
00:24:16,293 --> 00:24:17,235
Apple?
511
00:24:17,735 --> 00:24:19,735
Hello, Red.
512
00:24:20,052 --> 00:24:22,052
Things are going all right
with you guys, huh?
513
00:24:22,131 --> 00:24:24,131
Stick with us and every night
will be Saturday night.
514
00:24:24,395 --> 00:24:26,641
So long, fellas.
-Right.
515
00:24:27,434 --> 00:24:30,444
We couldn't make it any faster
if printed it ourselves.
516
00:24:30,492 --> 00:24:32,998
You picked a winner the day
you tied up with me, Chippie.
517
00:24:33,026 --> 00:24:33,761
You said it.
518
00:24:33,773 --> 00:24:35,895
Just think of you wasting your time
with the telephone company
519
00:24:35,945 --> 00:24:37,806
and me fooling around with two-bit book.
520
00:24:44,530 --> 00:24:45,703
Where is it?
521
00:24:48,513 --> 00:24:49,861
It's kind of light.
522
00:24:49,894 --> 00:24:52,077
They hit me again yesterday, Mal.
Two grand.
523
00:24:52,101 --> 00:24:53,587
I had to pay off right then, or else.
524
00:24:53,637 --> 00:24:54,826
That's your tough luck.
525
00:24:55,026 --> 00:24:57,026
You better have the rest of
what you owe Walters in here.
526
00:24:57,076 --> 00:24:58,402
Plus the interest.
527
00:24:58,472 --> 00:25:00,087
Do you think I like owing him money?
528
00:25:00,287 --> 00:25:02,287
I'll try to make the rest of it
next week.
529
00:25:02,334 --> 00:25:03,603
No soap, Weiss.
530
00:25:03,653 --> 00:25:06,383
You get it up by 3 this afternoon
or you're out of business.
531
00:25:07,528 --> 00:25:09,524
Walters will be waiting for you
at the office.
532
00:25:16,062 --> 00:25:18,384
I want the dough, Weiss,
and I want it now.
533
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,957
You've had five months
and you still haven't paid off.
534
00:25:21,457 --> 00:25:24,027
I've done the best I could.
But at 10% interest I...
535
00:25:24,307 --> 00:25:26,307
I've only got a little book,
Mr. Walters.
536
00:25:26,468 --> 00:25:28,000
You haven't got that now.
537
00:25:28,070 --> 00:25:29,368
You're through, Weiss.
538
00:25:29,919 --> 00:25:31,063
You can't do that.
539
00:25:31,563 --> 00:25:34,013
I got a wife, two kids.
I gotta keep going.
540
00:25:34,293 --> 00:25:36,293
You can't do that!
541
00:25:36,618 --> 00:25:38,802
Why don't you watch what you're doing?
542
00:25:42,998 --> 00:25:44,998
A wife and two kids, huh, Weiss?
543
00:25:45,608 --> 00:25:48,976
There are a couple of boys in town
I might speak to about them.
544
00:25:49,174 --> 00:25:52,721
How would you like to have the wife
and two kids worked over, Weiss?
545
00:25:53,450 --> 00:25:54,919
You can't do that.
546
00:25:55,419 --> 00:25:56,533
I won't let you.
547
00:25:57,033 --> 00:25:59,033
I won't let anyone.
548
00:26:04,968 --> 00:26:06,813
He got right past me. Went right...
549
00:26:07,332 --> 00:26:09,112
Somebody better call an ambulance.
550
00:26:12,348 --> 00:26:14,119
He won't need an ambulance.
551
00:26:18,801 --> 00:26:22,551
Weiss was found as suicide in his car
on Kingsley Road, Granger.
552
00:26:22,804 --> 00:26:24,584
Maybe that's why you don't want to talk.
553
00:26:24,902 --> 00:26:27,084
Can I help it
if Weiss bumped himself off?
554
00:26:27,156 --> 00:26:29,156
I told you he was crazy
when he was in the office.
555
00:26:29,193 --> 00:26:30,360
He even took a shot at me.
556
00:26:30,410 --> 00:26:31,495
Why did he come to your office?
557
00:26:32,203 --> 00:26:34,203
He wanted to see Walters about a loan.
558
00:26:34,253 --> 00:26:36,078
He said his book had been hit
and he needed some money.
559
00:26:36,578 --> 00:26:39,549
From what his wife tells us,
you were already bleeding him.
560
00:26:39,665 --> 00:26:41,317
He'd been paying Walters off for months.
561
00:26:41,422 --> 00:26:44,055
I don't know anything about that.
I just work there.
562
00:26:44,555 --> 00:26:46,555
What's the gangster squad
have on Granger?
563
00:26:46,719 --> 00:26:47,880
Not too much.
564
00:26:47,930 --> 00:26:50,796
The word's around town that he owns
a piece of Tri-State himself.
565
00:26:51,699 --> 00:26:54,516
We saw you talking to Weiss this morning
at the drive-in stand.
566
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:55,918
What is that about?
567
00:26:55,956 --> 00:26:56,745
Nothing.
568
00:26:56,795 --> 00:26:58,630
He just asked me
when he could see Walters.
569
00:26:59,164 --> 00:27:00,779
That's all for now, Granger.
570
00:27:00,950 --> 00:27:02,538
If I want you again, I'll call you.
571
00:27:19,485 --> 00:27:20,866
Granger.
572
00:27:21,898 --> 00:27:25,171
With Walters gone, it looks like you're
going to be Mr. Big over at Tri-State.
573
00:27:25,221 --> 00:27:26,900
If you're smart, you'll get out now.
574
00:27:27,620 --> 00:27:29,620
You know, they all end up like Walters.
575
00:28:22,025 --> 00:28:24,980
Quite an improvement for a guy who
didn't even have a change of overalls.
576
00:28:25,012 --> 00:28:25,991
Yeah, you like them?
577
00:28:26,023 --> 00:28:27,768
All depends on
what you're going to put inside them.
578
00:28:27,818 --> 00:28:29,118
What kind of crack is that?
579
00:28:29,208 --> 00:28:31,208
I just wonder if you're the same guy
I used to know.
580
00:28:31,241 --> 00:28:33,756
Just the same except for money
in my pockets instead of wire,
581
00:28:33,784 --> 00:28:35,279
tailored suits instead of overalls.
582
00:28:35,315 --> 00:28:37,480
I hope you and your wardrobe
will be very happy.
583
00:28:37,505 --> 00:28:40,636
On the way out, tell the cook to send me
some orange juice and coffee.
584
00:28:40,686 --> 00:28:41,938
Yes, master.
585
00:28:42,002 --> 00:28:45,793
Have you an appointment? Mr. Granger's
only seeing bankers these days.
586
00:28:46,988 --> 00:28:48,467
What's eating her?
587
00:28:48,591 --> 00:28:50,866
I used to think you two cooked up
a little deal between you.
588
00:28:51,194 --> 00:28:53,194
Trudy's pretty sold on you.
589
00:28:53,231 --> 00:28:54,622
I know, but that's not for me.
590
00:28:54,654 --> 00:28:56,178
Some guys were meant to be single.
591
00:28:56,206 --> 00:28:57,872
I hope I never fall in love, Chippie.
592
00:28:57,922 --> 00:28:59,103
It's only asking for trouble.
593
00:28:59,390 --> 00:29:01,708
That love business is
strictly storybook stuff.
594
00:29:01,769 --> 00:29:03,769
What I got to tell you
ain't no storybook stuff.
595
00:29:04,068 --> 00:29:06,694
Bookies are screaming about you
hiking the price of the service.
596
00:29:06,727 --> 00:29:08,102
They say you're murdering them.
597
00:29:08,126 --> 00:29:09,009
They can afford it.
598
00:29:09,028 --> 00:29:10,918
They gotta deal with me
or they're out of business.
599
00:29:10,968 --> 00:29:12,784
Why should I give those guys
a free ride?
600
00:29:14,187 --> 00:29:16,124
I ain't forgetting what you done for me.
601
00:29:16,174 --> 00:29:17,571
But somebody's gotta tell you.
602
00:29:17,851 --> 00:29:20,575
Maybe you're getting a little too
successful for your own good.
603
00:29:20,625 --> 00:29:23,368
Right now, you've got all of California
tied up and everybody knows it.
604
00:29:23,414 --> 00:29:26,741
Get too big and those big guys back east
move in. You know what that means.
605
00:29:26,791 --> 00:29:29,141
Relax. I'll do the worrying
for this outfit.
606
00:29:29,637 --> 00:29:31,637
Maybe that's one thing
you never thought of...
607
00:29:31,862 --> 00:29:33,744
Maybe I'm big enough for the big boys.
608
00:29:34,482 --> 00:29:35,980
Mal didn't know it.
609
00:29:36,022 --> 00:29:38,993
But the national syndicate was already
eyeing his operation.
610
00:29:39,043 --> 00:29:41,980
Their headquarters was in
an office building in Cleveland.
611
00:29:42,071 --> 00:29:44,336
They had impressive offices
and they should.
612
00:29:44,386 --> 00:29:49,358
Last year more than $8 billion was bet
with bookmakers in this country.
613
00:29:49,584 --> 00:29:53,637
More than the combined earnings
of 25 of our largest corporations.
614
00:29:53,863 --> 00:29:58,331
And the National Wire Service got
a big slice of that $8 billion racket.
615
00:30:01,742 --> 00:30:03,274
Ghastly stuff.
616
00:30:03,939 --> 00:30:07,620
If I hadn't picked up this duodenal
worrying about our affairs,
617
00:30:08,294 --> 00:30:10,717
I'd be able to eat like a man
instead of a kitten.
618
00:30:11,537 --> 00:30:13,537
What about Jake Miller?
619
00:30:13,682 --> 00:30:15,682
Anyone looked over the Florida accounts?
620
00:30:15,732 --> 00:30:16,712
I have.
621
00:30:16,764 --> 00:30:18,351
He was socking down on us all right.
622
00:30:18,403 --> 00:30:21,423
Took us for $43,000 entering bets
on winners for himself.
623
00:30:21,923 --> 00:30:23,923
That's bad, very bad.
624
00:30:24,231 --> 00:30:26,231
The man can't trust his own clients.
625
00:30:27,154 --> 00:30:28,577
How long has he been with us?
626
00:30:28,627 --> 00:30:30,627
Five, six years.
627
00:30:30,688 --> 00:30:33,496
He's been screaming ever since we cut
ourselves in for part of his book.
628
00:30:33,996 --> 00:30:35,428
That's unfortunate.
629
00:30:35,622 --> 00:30:38,426
Particularly so if word
got around that he
630
00:30:38,476 --> 00:30:40,958
took this money without any retaliation.
631
00:30:41,522 --> 00:30:44,384
Some of the other bookies
might get the same idea.
632
00:30:45,082 --> 00:30:46,509
Are we agreed?
633
00:30:47,816 --> 00:30:49,816
All right, Steve, I'll leave it to you.
634
00:30:49,853 --> 00:30:51,596
You know some people
in Miami, don't you?
635
00:30:51,646 --> 00:30:52,849
What does he get?
636
00:30:54,049 --> 00:30:56,564
I think he's a very sick man.
637
00:30:57,430 --> 00:30:59,430
I don't believe he'll ever get well.
638
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:01,930
I'll see that he doesn't.
639
00:31:02,423 --> 00:31:05,203
About California, Carl, I have
the data on Granger.
640
00:31:05,231 --> 00:31:07,231
Walters was knocked off
about a year ago.
641
00:31:07,271 --> 00:31:09,115
Granger took over the Tri-State service.
642
00:31:09,165 --> 00:31:11,532
This year, he'll clear
about a million two.
643
00:31:11,803 --> 00:31:15,279
That isn't so much. I though the whole
state was dancing to his tune.
644
00:31:15,329 --> 00:31:16,998
It is but this is piker stuff.
645
00:31:17,061 --> 00:31:19,061
This is just the take from
the wire service alone.
646
00:31:19,094 --> 00:31:20,799
If we were to move in on him,
647
00:31:20,828 --> 00:31:22,122
set up a whole operation.
648
00:31:22,172 --> 00:31:23,787
That would be a nice venture.
649
00:31:24,265 --> 00:31:27,159
I've always thought we should do
something about the Pacific coast.
650
00:31:27,705 --> 00:31:31,079
It's ridiculous that this syndicate
has never gone past Kansas City.
651
00:31:32,374 --> 00:31:33,753
What would you suggest?
652
00:31:33,823 --> 00:31:35,512
Let me look Granger up.
653
00:31:35,591 --> 00:31:38,636
Nothing too exciting. Just a little
suggestion he might find it more
654
00:31:38,779 --> 00:31:40,998
profitable to come in with us.
That sort of thing.
655
00:31:41,288 --> 00:31:42,819
Very good.
656
00:31:43,420 --> 00:31:45,868
But I've already had Granger looked up.
657
00:31:46,910 --> 00:31:49,328
I'm sure you'll show him
that in the long run
658
00:31:49,378 --> 00:31:51,698
no one man has ever been able to keep
659
00:31:52,198 --> 00:31:56,287
the wire service
as a personal enterprise.
660
00:31:57,309 --> 00:31:59,309
By the way, I uh...
661
00:31:59,361 --> 00:32:01,910
I'm leaving for Palm Springs
myself next week.
662
00:32:02,776 --> 00:32:06,471
Why don't you go down ahead
and look Granger over?
663
00:32:06,909 --> 00:32:08,459
And Larry...
664
00:32:09,232 --> 00:32:10,959
Take the wife along.
665
00:32:11,715 --> 00:32:14,302
She might like southern California.
666
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,600
How long have you been here?
667
00:32:23,752 --> 00:32:25,024
About two hours.
668
00:32:26,823 --> 00:32:29,601
Why do you suppose I've been sitting
with you that long?
669
00:32:30,101 --> 00:32:32,742
Maybe because you sort of like me?
670
00:32:33,061 --> 00:32:34,667
And I kind of like you.
671
00:32:34,717 --> 00:32:37,723
That's what you think, is it? Well, I'll
tell you the truth.
672
00:32:39,330 --> 00:32:41,653
All day I've been feeling like a rat.
673
00:32:42,418 --> 00:32:45,032
For a long time I've been feeling
like a rat.
674
00:32:45,724 --> 00:32:49,934
This afternoon I felt like talking to
someone who spoke my own language.
675
00:32:50,416 --> 00:32:51,432
And that's you.
676
00:32:52,470 --> 00:32:53,932
A great, big,
677
00:32:54,267 --> 00:32:55,686
good looking rat.
678
00:32:55,921 --> 00:32:57,600
You need another drink?
679
00:32:57,825 --> 00:32:58,905
Who doesn't?
680
00:33:01,197 --> 00:33:03,607
You're going to get a great shock
when my husband shows up.
681
00:33:04,321 --> 00:33:06,499
He's even a bigger rat than you are.
682
00:33:06,549 --> 00:33:07,665
You're a little tight.
683
00:33:07,804 --> 00:33:09,128
But very sweet.
684
00:33:09,651 --> 00:33:11,157
And you haven't got a husband.
685
00:33:11,465 --> 00:33:13,465
Hasn't she?
-Darling.
686
00:33:14,175 --> 00:33:16,175
This is my husband, Mr...
687
00:33:16,957 --> 00:33:18,584
I'm sorry, I...
688
00:33:19,002 --> 00:33:20,545
I didn't get the name.
689
00:33:20,615 --> 00:33:21,713
You never do.
690
00:33:22,030 --> 00:33:24,030
Well, if you'll excuse me.
691
00:33:25,628 --> 00:33:27,628
You ought to pick them a little tougher.
692
00:33:28,273 --> 00:33:29,716
The one I have is tough enough.
693
00:33:30,574 --> 00:33:32,106
How did the meeting go?
694
00:33:32,286 --> 00:33:33,697
Is Carl still living on milk?
695
00:33:33,886 --> 00:33:34,993
Carl's all right.
696
00:33:35,493 --> 00:33:37,641
Maybe he sees a lot of things I don't.
697
00:33:39,056 --> 00:33:41,258
How would you like a little trip
to the coast, baby?
698
00:33:41,419 --> 00:33:42,465
I'd love it.
699
00:33:43,084 --> 00:33:44,965
I've always wanted to live
in Beverly Hills.
700
00:34:05,806 --> 00:34:08,487
Hello, Tim. What's the matter?
You still look down in the dumps.
701
00:34:08,529 --> 00:34:11,277
And for good reason. Things ain't so
good with some of us boys
702
00:34:11,301 --> 00:34:13,365
since you upped the prices.
703
00:34:13,415 --> 00:34:15,968
Come on, Tim, you're doing fine.
You can afford it.
704
00:34:20,606 --> 00:34:23,027
They tell me you're Mal Granger.
I'm Larry Mason.
705
00:34:23,051 --> 00:34:24,093
Could I have a word with you?
706
00:34:24,112 --> 00:34:25,096
What are you doing way out here?
707
00:34:25,109 --> 00:34:26,971
Came to see a ball game.
-Hope you enjoy it.
708
00:34:27,021 --> 00:34:30,286
I also had another reason for coming.
I thought you and I could have a talk.
709
00:34:30,466 --> 00:34:32,466
That's a long way to come
without being sure.
710
00:34:32,494 --> 00:34:33,528
You should have written me first.
711
00:34:33,550 --> 00:34:34,693
The mail belongs to the government.
712
00:34:34,716 --> 00:34:36,716
I don't trust much of my business
with the government.
713
00:34:36,739 --> 00:34:38,041
How about watching the game with me?
714
00:34:38,056 --> 00:34:39,788
Sorry, I got some people inside
waiting for me.
715
00:34:39,803 --> 00:34:41,187
How about after the game?
-I got a date.
716
00:34:41,211 --> 00:34:43,128
What have you got against
talking things over?
717
00:34:43,148 --> 00:34:45,440
Nothing except I already know
what you're going to talk about.
718
00:34:45,452 --> 00:34:46,905
Oh, I'm so sorry.
-That's all right.
719
00:34:46,918 --> 00:34:47,838
Well, are we going?
720
00:34:47,888 --> 00:34:49,888
Gail, this is Mal Granger. My wife.
721
00:34:50,198 --> 00:34:51,656
Hello.
-Well, hello.
722
00:34:51,706 --> 00:34:53,512
Sure you won't change your mind
about joining us?
723
00:34:53,555 --> 00:34:56,474
She's very pretty but I already told you
I got people inside waiting.
724
00:34:56,524 --> 00:34:58,405
What about cocktails tomorrow
at my place?
725
00:34:58,708 --> 00:35:00,906
I'm not to far from poverty
to accept a free drink.
726
00:35:00,948 --> 00:35:03,001
All right, 7 O'Clock. I'll give you
the address.
727
00:35:03,043 --> 00:35:05,660
Don't bother. I knew when you
got in town and where you're living.
728
00:35:05,689 --> 00:35:06,768
I'll see you tomorrow.
729
00:35:06,818 --> 00:35:07,831
Oh uh...
730
00:35:07,961 --> 00:35:09,961
Nice meeting you, Mrs. Mason.
-Thank you.
731
00:35:40,436 --> 00:35:42,436
Nice layout you got here, Larry.
732
00:35:42,472 --> 00:35:43,931
You must be figuring on staying.
733
00:35:43,981 --> 00:35:46,358
Been thinking of going
into business out here.
734
00:35:46,525 --> 00:35:48,525
Win anything on the game last night?
735
00:35:48,575 --> 00:35:49,987
I don't gamble anymore.
736
00:35:50,059 --> 00:35:52,487
Why should you when you've already got
a sure thing?
737
00:35:52,584 --> 00:35:55,125
While I'm here, I'd like to look over
that setup of yours.
738
00:35:55,378 --> 00:35:58,292
I hear that for an independent operation
it's right up to the minute.
739
00:35:58,499 --> 00:36:01,073
For a guy that's only been in town for
a couple of days, you've heard a lot.
740
00:36:01,136 --> 00:36:03,547
Thanks, I don't show it anymore.
It's top secret.
741
00:36:03,597 --> 00:36:05,065
No reason why it should be, is there?
742
00:36:05,474 --> 00:36:08,715
After all, I'm in the same business.
We might compare methods.
743
00:36:09,261 --> 00:36:12,797
As a matter of fact, I might even have
a proposition for you.
744
00:36:13,215 --> 00:36:16,088
Thanks, I'm not in the market
for any propositions right now.
745
00:36:17,448 --> 00:36:19,064
I like things the way they are.
746
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,482
A man never lost any money
just listening.
747
00:36:21,625 --> 00:36:25,028
Could make him a wad of dough and save
him a lot of trouble at the same time.
748
00:36:25,493 --> 00:36:28,358
If you don't come in with us, you might
run into some other outfit
749
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:29,943
that wouldn't be so cooperative.
750
00:36:29,993 --> 00:36:30,789
Really?
751
00:36:30,876 --> 00:36:34,096
I thought your syndicate was the only
one big enough to operate on that scale.
752
00:36:34,184 --> 00:36:35,898
But you're wasting your time.
753
00:36:35,932 --> 00:36:37,932
If you wanted to talk business,
754
00:36:37,982 --> 00:36:39,522
you should have sent Carl Stevens.
755
00:36:39,643 --> 00:36:41,341
I only deal with the top man.
756
00:36:41,391 --> 00:36:43,855
I'm not exactly an office boy myself.
757
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,423
But if that's the way you feel.
758
00:36:45,473 --> 00:36:47,161
Must you two talk business all evening?
759
00:36:47,222 --> 00:36:48,983
Tell me about Palm Springs.
760
00:36:49,245 --> 00:36:51,245
Larry and I are going down there
this weekend.
761
00:36:51,728 --> 00:36:54,153
There isn't much doing there
now that the season's over.
762
00:36:54,185 --> 00:36:55,844
But if you want a lot of rest
and some sun.
763
00:36:55,886 --> 00:36:56,887
Not too much rest.
764
00:36:56,937 --> 00:36:58,747
I like to keep moving, don't I, Larry?
765
00:36:58,881 --> 00:37:00,881
It's all we've been doing
since we were married.
766
00:37:01,061 --> 00:37:03,061
Don't have a chance to think
too much then.
767
00:37:04,257 --> 00:37:08,350
Maybe that's why she keeps me broke
buying clothes. Just something to do.
768
00:37:09,068 --> 00:37:11,319
Carl's down at Palm Springs right now.
769
00:37:11,361 --> 00:37:13,361
Why don't you come down with us
this weekend and meet him?
770
00:37:13,411 --> 00:37:15,292
Perhaps Mr. Granger wouldn't like it.
771
00:37:16,247 --> 00:37:19,572
With the season over, he might not find
anything interesting to do.
772
00:37:19,624 --> 00:37:21,989
I don't know. I think I might find it
very interesting.
773
00:37:22,082 --> 00:37:24,445
Things have got a little dull
around here anyhow.
774
00:37:24,495 --> 00:37:25,935
Maybe I'll take you up on that.
775
00:37:32,438 --> 00:37:34,227
Sure you won't have something, Gail?
776
00:37:34,324 --> 00:37:35,983
Nothing right now, thanks.
777
00:37:37,304 --> 00:37:38,748
More medicine.
778
00:37:40,733 --> 00:37:43,390
I don't know how you two
can just eat like that.
779
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,813
I've taken the very best care of myself.
780
00:37:46,056 --> 00:37:47,474
And that's my reward.
781
00:37:47,984 --> 00:37:50,213
I haven't had a decent night's sleep
since I got here.
782
00:37:50,250 --> 00:37:52,250
Maybe you're taking on
too much business, Carl.
783
00:37:52,299 --> 00:37:53,722
You ought to take it easy, relax.
784
00:37:53,754 --> 00:37:55,882
We're always geared
to take on more business.
785
00:37:55,929 --> 00:37:57,174
Oh now, Larry.
786
00:37:57,224 --> 00:38:00,566
Mal has every reason to wonder
at our sudden interest in him.
787
00:38:03,395 --> 00:38:05,395
Haven't you, Mal?
-Hm?
788
00:38:05,895 --> 00:38:07,895
It is attractive here, isn't it?
789
00:38:08,178 --> 00:38:09,311
Yeah.
790
00:38:09,559 --> 00:38:12,276
You should think about going in with us.
791
00:38:12,313 --> 00:38:13,963
We don't want to move in on you.
792
00:38:14,013 --> 00:38:15,653
We want to cut you in as a full partner.
793
00:38:16,152 --> 00:38:18,270
I'm not interested in
getting any bigger, thanks.
794
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:19,678
I like things the way they are.
795
00:38:19,839 --> 00:38:21,839
But you might run into trouble
at any minute.
796
00:38:22,083 --> 00:38:24,083
We're prepared to handle that for you.
797
00:38:24,190 --> 00:38:28,466
Like the law or some undesirable element
wanting to cut in.
798
00:38:28,987 --> 00:38:30,307
We can handle that.
799
00:38:30,381 --> 00:38:32,708
Give you and the service
full protection.
800
00:38:32,758 --> 00:38:34,620
I haven't had any trouble so far.
801
00:38:34,745 --> 00:38:36,966
But if it comes,
I think I can handle it.
802
00:38:36,998 --> 00:38:38,998
It's more than giving you
just protection.
803
00:38:39,048 --> 00:38:42,937
It's cutting you in on profits
you never dreamed of.
804
00:38:43,027 --> 00:38:45,402
Suppose something went sour
here on the coast.
805
00:38:45,673 --> 00:38:48,331
You'd be getting a share
from our other outlets.
806
00:38:49,371 --> 00:38:52,442
You might well call it an annuity.
807
00:38:55,495 --> 00:38:57,055
What is your offer anyway?
808
00:38:57,167 --> 00:38:58,768
A very handsome one.
809
00:38:59,881 --> 00:39:03,836
You would still retain
a half interest in Tri-State.
810
00:39:04,336 --> 00:39:08,103
And also receive a fair share of our
profits throughout the country.
811
00:39:08,264 --> 00:39:10,988
If you have an attorney
you'd care to consult...
812
00:39:11,900 --> 00:39:13,900
Thanks, I'm my own attorney.
813
00:39:14,107 --> 00:39:15,365
I'll think about it.
814
00:39:25,856 --> 00:39:27,856
I'm gonna get cleaned up.
815
00:39:28,146 --> 00:39:29,282
I'll see you.
816
00:39:32,444 --> 00:39:34,444
I wouldn't be too hasty.
817
00:39:35,127 --> 00:39:37,485
Things are working out
exactly as I planned.
818
00:39:39,824 --> 00:39:41,020
That's plenty, Mac.
819
00:39:41,067 --> 00:39:42,091
Yes, sir.
820
00:39:42,141 --> 00:39:45,284
Here you are. Keep the change.
-Thank you, sir.
821
00:39:58,771 --> 00:40:01,834
A girl could get awfully drunk
looking in every bar around town for you
822
00:40:02,406 --> 00:40:03,931
Anything wrong with that?
823
00:40:05,805 --> 00:40:07,504
Is it all right if I sit down?
824
00:40:07,554 --> 00:40:08,596
Why not?
825
00:40:10,290 --> 00:40:11,425
Have a drink?
826
00:40:11,505 --> 00:40:13,011
I'll have a double.
827
00:40:13,475 --> 00:40:14,597
Double what?
828
00:40:15,356 --> 00:40:16,659
Double yours.
829
00:40:16,949 --> 00:40:18,875
Hey, Mac.
-Yes, sir?
830
00:40:19,349 --> 00:40:20,944
Do it twice.
-OK.
831
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:23,307
You must like this stuff.
832
00:40:23,807 --> 00:40:25,206
No, not especially.
833
00:40:25,706 --> 00:40:27,982
I like what I see
in the bottom of the glass.
834
00:40:29,140 --> 00:40:30,893
Getting away from it all, huh?
835
00:40:32,516 --> 00:40:34,030
Just from myself.
836
00:40:37,552 --> 00:40:38,704
Let's dance.
837
00:40:40,382 --> 00:40:41,533
Sure.
838
00:41:13,425 --> 00:41:15,042
The boys seem pretty certain of me.
839
00:41:16,565 --> 00:41:18,291
They decided long ago.
840
00:41:18,426 --> 00:41:19,738
What about you?
841
00:41:20,558 --> 00:41:22,759
You could have saved yourself
a lot of trouble.
842
00:41:23,259 --> 00:41:25,259
I've already decided to go in with them.
843
00:41:25,559 --> 00:41:26,964
How could that save me trouble?
844
00:41:27,117 --> 00:41:28,943
This is all part
of the buildup, isn't it?
845
00:41:29,042 --> 00:41:31,748
Beautiful girl, soft music, hard drinks.
846
00:41:31,798 --> 00:41:32,700
Oh, sure.
847
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,866
I'm the prize you win if you throw
the ring over the right peg.
848
00:41:35,928 --> 00:41:36,961
Yeah?
849
00:41:37,041 --> 00:41:40,299
I don't know if I can afford to buy
a chance. Or are you giving them away?
850
00:41:53,648 --> 00:41:55,648
Gail, wait a minute.
851
00:41:56,897 --> 00:41:58,897
I was out of line.
852
00:41:59,397 --> 00:42:01,397
Gail, please.
853
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,214
I had you figured all wrong.
854
00:42:03,385 --> 00:42:04,398
I'm sorry.
855
00:42:06,953 --> 00:42:08,451
We all make mistakes.
856
00:42:09,307 --> 00:42:11,663
Anyway, I did tell you that I'd gone out
looking for you.
857
00:42:12,035 --> 00:42:14,035
And there is a guy named Larry.
858
00:42:14,782 --> 00:42:16,782
Let's call that my mistake.
859
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:19,583
My big one.
860
00:42:21,116 --> 00:42:22,530
You know,
861
00:42:22,774 --> 00:42:24,370
You don't look as though you...
862
00:42:26,249 --> 00:42:27,367
Well as though you...
863
00:42:27,593 --> 00:42:29,494
Belong to a big shot int the syndicate?
864
00:42:29,820 --> 00:42:30,957
Yeah.
865
00:42:31,768 --> 00:42:33,064
What do I look like?
866
00:42:33,564 --> 00:42:36,558
Like someone who went to
one of those smart girl's schools.
867
00:42:36,758 --> 00:42:38,892
You know, belong to the
country club set.
868
00:42:38,942 --> 00:42:39,805
I did.
869
00:42:41,226 --> 00:42:42,871
Until I met Larry.
870
00:42:43,818 --> 00:42:46,562
Innocent young girl taken in
by smooth talking stranger?
871
00:42:46,815 --> 00:42:48,815
No, I knew all about him.
872
00:42:49,224 --> 00:42:51,489
But you see, I'd never know anyone
like him before.
873
00:42:52,728 --> 00:42:56,022
Probably would have gotten over it if
my family hadn't raised such a fuss.
874
00:42:59,462 --> 00:43:01,161
Is this really important to you?
875
00:43:03,469 --> 00:43:04,985
You're important to me.
876
00:43:20,489 --> 00:43:22,489
Come on.
877
00:43:54,784 --> 00:43:56,033
Hi, Pete.
878
00:43:56,062 --> 00:43:58,062
What do you know, George?
-Nothing much, Tim.
879
00:43:58,075 --> 00:43:59,872
Say Tim, what's this all about?
880
00:43:59,891 --> 00:44:01,282
I don't know but I don't like it.
881
00:44:01,304 --> 00:44:03,250
Why should Granger bring all the
bookies together
882
00:44:03,269 --> 00:44:05,195
unless he's going to slip us
some more bad news?
883
00:44:05,245 --> 00:44:08,628
He picked a good place for it all right.
A gas works yet.
884
00:44:19,983 --> 00:44:23,686
Sorry to be late, men, but I got tied up
in a meeting with my new partners.
885
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:26,180
That's right.
886
00:44:26,213 --> 00:44:28,495
That's why I called this
meeting here today.
887
00:44:28,515 --> 00:44:30,488
Right in the same gas house
where Vince Walters
888
00:44:30,506 --> 00:44:32,607
first organized the Tri-State
Wire Service.
889
00:44:32,657 --> 00:44:35,991
We've all come a long way since then
and we're going to go a lot further.
890
00:44:36,459 --> 00:44:38,873
I just made a deal with the National
Press Service.
891
00:44:42,478 --> 00:44:43,720
How do you like that?
892
00:44:43,768 --> 00:44:45,923
...right in the neck.
-That's right, the big boys.
893
00:44:45,964 --> 00:44:48,228
Carl Stevens, Larry Mason, Joe Gish
894
00:44:48,278 --> 00:44:49,730
and Steve Marshak.
895
00:44:49,828 --> 00:44:52,260
This is Larry Mason standing
right over here.
896
00:44:52,687 --> 00:44:54,687
He's gonna tell you what the new deal
is all about.
897
00:44:59,644 --> 00:45:03,253
We want all you boys to get together
in a little protective association.
898
00:45:04,136 --> 00:45:06,716
We've got some trouble coming up here
and the syndicate's
899
00:45:06,766 --> 00:45:08,205
prepared to handle it for you.
900
00:45:08,697 --> 00:45:11,624
It'll take a little juice,
a little money in the right places.
901
00:45:11,707 --> 00:45:14,186
But we'll see that you get
a buck's worth of protection
902
00:45:14,236 --> 00:45:15,823
for every dollar you put out.
903
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,089
And by forming a protection association,
904
00:45:19,122 --> 00:45:21,442
we can handle it in a businesslike way.
905
00:45:21,481 --> 00:45:22,804
With our money?
906
00:45:22,827 --> 00:45:24,452
Suppose we don't want to join?
907
00:45:24,502 --> 00:45:27,061
You'll change your minds when
you've heard the play-by-play.
908
00:45:27,135 --> 00:45:30,070
I don't know if you men know anything
about the politics in this state,
909
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:31,581
but if you don't, you should.
910
00:45:31,752 --> 00:45:34,898
Right now up in Sacramento,
there's a bill to legalize bookies.
911
00:45:35,008 --> 00:45:37,008
If that happens,
we're all out of business.
912
00:45:37,058 --> 00:45:38,793
The state will be taking our gravy.
913
00:45:38,982 --> 00:45:40,982
We've not only got to whip that.
914
00:45:41,039 --> 00:45:43,659
But we've got to out box the governor's
new crime commission.
915
00:45:43,709 --> 00:45:46,728
Those guys can't be bought.
So, if you want to stay in business,
916
00:45:47,109 --> 00:45:48,560
You're gonna have to pay for it.
917
00:45:48,797 --> 00:45:50,476
'Cause it'll cost money
918
00:45:50,596 --> 00:45:52,976
for a lobby of our own.
-How much?
919
00:45:53,038 --> 00:45:55,856
We're not going to have any hike
in the price of the wire service.
920
00:45:56,831 --> 00:45:59,355
All we're asking is 20% of every book.
921
00:45:59,453 --> 00:46:02,428
He's out of his mind!
-He'll make us broke in no time!
922
00:46:02,498 --> 00:46:03,844
Now wait a minute.
923
00:46:04,737 --> 00:46:06,994
Nobody is forcing you to join.
924
00:46:07,311 --> 00:46:08,658
But if you don't...
925
00:46:09,286 --> 00:46:12,341
The wire service can only take care
of its own customers.
926
00:46:12,841 --> 00:46:14,841
Count me out.
-Me too.
927
00:46:19,414 --> 00:46:21,698
I'm glad to see
the rest of you guys are smart.
928
00:46:22,070 --> 00:46:23,742
I've got all your phone numbers.
929
00:46:23,914 --> 00:46:25,264
If you want to join up,
930
00:46:25,764 --> 00:46:27,764
let the men at the door
know as you go out.
931
00:46:28,604 --> 00:46:30,481
REIGN OF TERROR
HITS BOOKIES
932
00:46:33,561 --> 00:46:35,561
Press the buzzer, Pop.
933
00:46:40,636 --> 00:46:42,636
Get out of here, all of you.
934
00:46:46,771 --> 00:46:48,771
You're not going to get away with this!
935
00:46:59,509 --> 00:47:02,732
The bookmakers were no match for the
strong-arm tactics of the hoodlums.
936
00:47:03,068 --> 00:47:05,773
To stay in business, they had to
submit to every demand for tribute.
937
00:47:05,871 --> 00:47:08,928
The west coast soon became
one of the syndicate's richest assets.
938
00:47:09,035 --> 00:47:12,113
Mal Granger had come a long way
from the telephone company.
939
00:47:13,465 --> 00:47:15,802
Here, you can take care of these things
for me.
940
00:47:15,835 --> 00:47:17,325
I got to go over to the Masons' anyway.
941
00:47:17,359 --> 00:47:19,175
You don't spend much time
on business anymore.
942
00:47:19,195 --> 00:47:21,141
Why should I? The business takes
care of itself.
943
00:47:21,178 --> 00:47:23,015
And, I've got you to count up
the money for me.
944
00:47:23,065 --> 00:47:25,539
That's what I have been doing, Mal,
and it doesn't add up right.
945
00:47:25,733 --> 00:47:27,733
Add it up again.
Maybe you misplaced a decimal.
946
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:29,129
Me or somebody else did.
947
00:47:29,257 --> 00:47:31,559
You're supposed to be getting
a 50-50 break, aren't you?
948
00:47:31,609 --> 00:47:32,230
That's right.
949
00:47:33,016 --> 00:47:35,326
The syndicate took over
six hundred thousand last month.
950
00:47:35,364 --> 00:47:37,208
You got one hundred forty six thousand.
951
00:47:37,258 --> 00:47:39,258
That's not even 70-30, Mal.
952
00:47:40,603 --> 00:47:42,603
Let me see that again.
953
00:47:44,786 --> 00:47:46,786
They wouldn't do that to me
in my own town.
954
00:47:46,836 --> 00:47:47,799
Wouldn't they though.
955
00:47:47,870 --> 00:47:50,189
Remember they insisted on having
their own runners?
956
00:47:51,216 --> 00:47:52,406
Where did you get those figures?
957
00:47:52,445 --> 00:47:54,603
The bookies trust me, Mal.
They wanted you to see them.
958
00:47:54,630 --> 00:47:55,405
They figured if you knew
959
00:47:55,449 --> 00:47:57,800
you were being taken like they were,
you'd do something about it.
960
00:47:57,830 --> 00:48:00,023
I'm going to have a long talk
with somebody right now.
961
00:48:00,046 --> 00:48:01,554
Do you think she could do anything
about it?
962
00:48:01,574 --> 00:48:02,544
What do you mean, "she"?
963
00:48:02,580 --> 00:48:04,269
That's not the only trouble
you're in, Mal.
964
00:48:04,295 --> 00:48:06,295
Larry Mason isn't exactly stupid,
you know.
965
00:48:06,345 --> 00:48:07,868
You're a little bit out of line,
aren't you?
966
00:48:11,946 --> 00:48:13,155
I know, kid.
967
00:48:13,205 --> 00:48:14,691
He's not the same guy.
968
00:48:14,789 --> 00:48:16,789
But maybe he'll come around.
It's worth waiting for.
969
00:48:17,727 --> 00:48:19,727
Do you want to lay odds on that?
970
00:48:21,092 --> 00:48:22,675
Hi, Mal.
971
00:48:22,904 --> 00:48:24,373
I look a little different, don't I?
972
00:48:24,423 --> 00:48:25,685
The boys did a good job on me.
973
00:48:25,765 --> 00:48:27,509
I guess I have to learn the hard way.
974
00:48:27,539 --> 00:48:30,523
Mal, if you could stake me to a fresh
bankroll so I can open up again,
975
00:48:30,548 --> 00:48:32,778
I'll go along with you all the way.
Will you give me a chance?
976
00:48:32,801 --> 00:48:35,360
You had you chance, Tim. You better get
yourself a new racket.
977
00:48:35,410 --> 00:48:37,107
I got troubles enough of my own.
978
00:48:45,078 --> 00:48:47,960
I'm sorry, Larry, you'll just have to
take off without me.
979
00:48:48,269 --> 00:48:49,894
I don't feel athletic today.
980
00:48:50,394 --> 00:48:54,364
Maybe you'd rather go down to Malibu
and build sandcastles.
981
00:48:55,011 --> 00:48:57,083
That's right, make yourself
right at home.
982
00:48:57,138 --> 00:48:59,630
Maybe you didn't come to see me.
-I came to see you, all right.
983
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:02,590
I got a message for you and Carl.
You can get yourselves a new partner.
984
00:49:02,946 --> 00:49:04,946
You sound like things
are tough all over.
985
00:49:04,996 --> 00:49:06,996
Better let me buy you a cup of coffee.
-Never mind the coffee.
986
00:49:07,954 --> 00:49:09,471
All right, what is it?
987
00:49:09,505 --> 00:49:10,499
You know what it is.
988
00:49:10,547 --> 00:49:12,865
My agreement called for
a 50-50 cut out here.
989
00:49:12,897 --> 00:49:16,186
I got the figures that prove that all
I'm getting is about 30% to your 70.
990
00:49:16,210 --> 00:49:18,210
There are certain expenses
we have to allow for.
991
00:49:18,225 --> 00:49:19,906
And what if the figures
don't all check out?
992
00:49:19,921 --> 00:49:21,975
You're averaging $45,000 a month more
993
00:49:21,986 --> 00:49:23,400
than you were you when
you came in with us.
994
00:49:23,414 --> 00:49:25,531
I don't care what I'm averaging.
My agreement was for 50-50.
995
00:49:25,581 --> 00:49:27,194
If I don't get it, I walk out.
996
00:49:27,519 --> 00:49:29,739
It'll be interesting to see
how you do it.
997
00:49:30,093 --> 00:49:33,710
I've seen a few people try. But somehow,
they never seem to make it.
998
00:49:34,374 --> 00:49:35,835
No, Mal, you're in.
999
00:49:36,027 --> 00:49:38,367
You came along for the ride
and I'm afraid you're with us
1000
00:49:38,417 --> 00:49:40,417
till the end of the line.
1001
00:49:40,780 --> 00:49:43,273
You better have that coffee.
You look all upset.
1002
00:50:04,421 --> 00:50:07,155
What's the matter, darling? Something's
been bothering you, hasn't it?
1003
00:50:07,418 --> 00:50:08,537
It's funny.
1004
00:50:09,037 --> 00:50:11,037
I was supposed to be a smart girl.
1005
00:50:11,300 --> 00:50:13,300
Played everything for laughs.
1006
00:50:13,444 --> 00:50:15,444
Now I'm frightened.
-Of what?
1007
00:50:16,094 --> 00:50:17,636
What might happen to you.
1008
00:50:17,686 --> 00:50:18,830
Nothing's gonna happen to me.
1009
00:50:19,220 --> 00:50:22,212
I'll play along with these jokers
until I can grab what they owe me.
1010
00:50:22,328 --> 00:50:24,328
Then we'll light out for keeps.
1011
00:50:24,376 --> 00:50:26,394
Nobody's ever been able to
walk out on them, Mal.
1012
00:50:26,444 --> 00:50:28,105
There's got to be a first time
for everything.
1013
00:50:28,603 --> 00:50:30,603
We found that out, haven't we?
1014
00:50:30,939 --> 00:50:31,947
Yes.
1015
00:50:34,383 --> 00:50:36,576
He was building up
to the payoff right then.
1016
00:50:37,076 --> 00:50:39,076
All Granger needed was a shove.
1017
00:50:39,576 --> 00:50:41,576
It came along a lot sooner
than he expected.
1018
00:50:42,250 --> 00:50:44,808
It came the next Friday night
at the Legion Stadium.
1019
00:51:15,442 --> 00:51:16,923
Hello, Larry.
1020
00:51:17,295 --> 00:51:18,683
Didn't know you liked the fights.
1021
00:51:18,763 --> 00:51:20,389
Me? I'm crazy about them.
1022
00:51:20,453 --> 00:51:22,590
Particularly when I get in for free.
1023
00:51:22,632 --> 00:51:24,632
I found a ticket on Gail's dresser.
1024
00:51:24,682 --> 00:51:27,750
She told me she'd never seen a fight
so I sent her a ticket.
1025
00:51:28,071 --> 00:51:30,071
If I'd known you were coming,
I'd have made it a pair.
1026
00:51:30,121 --> 00:51:31,301
Sure you would, Mal.
1027
00:51:31,500 --> 00:51:32,680
Peanuts?
-No thanks.
1028
00:51:32,896 --> 00:51:35,061
A fight's not the fights
without peanuts.
1029
00:51:36,410 --> 00:51:39,832
The kid in blue tights isn't too bad.
Gail would have got a kick out of him.
1030
00:51:40,633 --> 00:51:43,718
Maybe you didn't hear. She had
a little accident this afternoon.
1031
00:51:44,202 --> 00:51:45,711
Accident? When? What happened?
1032
00:51:45,761 --> 00:51:47,339
Fell down some stairs.
1033
00:51:47,647 --> 00:51:49,647
Hurt her jaw and nose.
1034
00:51:50,028 --> 00:51:52,028
Got kind of a black eye too.
1035
00:51:52,857 --> 00:51:55,575
Doctor thought she'd better spend
the night in Hollywood Hospital.
1036
00:51:55,913 --> 00:51:57,913
Stairs, huh? Were you around
when it happened?
1037
00:51:57,963 --> 00:51:59,475
What a punch.
1038
00:52:00,585 --> 00:52:02,048
That kid's really got it.
1039
00:52:02,722 --> 00:52:04,722
Sure, I was around.
1040
00:52:05,898 --> 00:52:08,238
I figured maybe Gail was just tired.
1041
00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:10,602
Not watching what she was doing.
1042
00:52:10,645 --> 00:52:12,305
She's been getting around too much.
1043
00:52:12,336 --> 00:52:13,930
Maybe she doesn't like the way
she's been living.
1044
00:52:13,962 --> 00:52:15,670
Maybe that's why she gets around
so much.
1045
00:52:15,720 --> 00:52:16,649
Could be.
1046
00:52:17,132 --> 00:52:19,132
Who's been spoiling her, Mal?
1047
00:52:19,395 --> 00:52:21,942
Drive-ins, little bars places like this.
1048
00:52:22,789 --> 00:52:24,789
You shouldn't do things like that
for a dame.
1049
00:52:25,097 --> 00:52:27,371
Especially if she doesn't belong to you.
1050
00:52:34,299 --> 00:52:36,711
Only a minute now.
I'm going to give you a sedative.
1051
00:52:44,502 --> 00:52:45,495
Mal.
1052
00:52:46,282 --> 00:52:47,639
It was a good fight.
1053
00:52:48,139 --> 00:52:50,139
But I'm afraid I underrated my opponent.
1054
00:52:50,632 --> 00:52:52,632
I'd like to see him pick on someone
his own size.
1055
00:52:52,682 --> 00:52:53,926
No, it wouldn't help.
1056
00:52:54,417 --> 00:52:55,815
It would only end in a killing.
1057
00:52:56,290 --> 00:52:58,290
If they killed you, I'd die with you.
1058
00:52:58,340 --> 00:53:00,340
I can't stand around
and let this happen.
1059
00:53:00,633 --> 00:53:02,321
Every time I'm not with you,
I'll be afraid...
1060
00:53:02,371 --> 00:53:03,323
No, Mal.
1061
00:53:03,540 --> 00:53:05,540
I don't care about
what Larry does to me.
1062
00:53:05,693 --> 00:53:07,693
But I do care about you.
1063
00:53:08,159 --> 00:53:10,159
If anything happened to you.
-What am I supposed to do?
1064
00:53:10,209 --> 00:53:11,612
Just sit here and relax?
1065
00:53:11,683 --> 00:53:14,251
Right now, we've got to pretend
we never felt this way.
1066
00:53:15,226 --> 00:53:18,233
Mal, you've got to keep coming
to the house as if nothing happened.
1067
00:53:18,724 --> 00:53:19,779
Will you?
1068
00:53:21,743 --> 00:53:22,745
Sure.
1069
00:53:23,736 --> 00:53:25,327
Sure, I'll come around.
1070
00:53:26,119 --> 00:53:28,119
Maybe things will handle themselves.
1071
00:53:28,290 --> 00:53:30,290
Remember the old gag?
1072
00:53:30,434 --> 00:53:32,434
Time wounds all heels?
1073
00:53:55,701 --> 00:53:57,268
Want to see me, Mr. Granger?
1074
00:53:57,325 --> 00:53:59,028
Yeah. Sit down.
1075
00:54:00,122 --> 00:54:02,122
I was feeling kind of lonesome tonight.
1076
00:54:04,001 --> 00:54:06,001
Matter of fact,
I'm feeling very lonesome.
1077
00:54:06,631 --> 00:54:08,901
I thought you had many friends.
Only the other day i...
1078
00:54:08,939 --> 00:54:09,668
Sure.
1079
00:54:09,718 --> 00:54:10,849
I know a lot of people.
1080
00:54:11,190 --> 00:54:12,879
But they're not the right sort.
1081
00:54:16,447 --> 00:54:18,447
I need to meet one man, Rocco.
1082
00:54:19,038 --> 00:54:21,341
One man who can do me a lot of good.
1083
00:54:21,841 --> 00:54:24,180
Who is this man?
-I said I don't know him.
1084
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:26,680
But I need a man for a job.
1085
00:54:27,098 --> 00:54:28,418
A tough job.
1086
00:54:28,893 --> 00:54:30,893
Surely, Mr. Granger, you know
many such men.
1087
00:54:30,943 --> 00:54:32,667
I also need a stranger.
1088
00:54:33,167 --> 00:54:35,167
Someone who doesn't know me.
1089
00:54:35,813 --> 00:54:37,813
Or anyone in my business.
1090
00:54:41,619 --> 00:54:43,619
Well uh...
1091
00:54:44,119 --> 00:54:45,944
Maybe you need a new sport coat.
1092
00:54:46,007 --> 00:54:48,007
Sport coat?
-Yeah.
1093
00:54:49,228 --> 00:54:52,710
I know a place where the tailoring
is exceptional. The material the best.
1094
00:54:53,648 --> 00:54:55,841
A place in Beverly Hills called Gizzi.
1095
00:54:56,569 --> 00:54:59,369
Gizzi's from Victoria. They just opened
up. I know him real well.
1096
00:54:59,567 --> 00:55:01,869
His father and my father came
from the old country together.
1097
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:03,060
Gizzi.
1098
00:55:03,533 --> 00:55:05,064
Absolutely reliable.
1099
00:55:05,144 --> 00:55:06,786
Satisfaction guaranteed.
1100
00:55:07,286 --> 00:55:09,286
Just tell him I sent you.
1101
00:55:13,841 --> 00:55:15,484
Thanks, Rocco.
1102
00:55:36,167 --> 00:55:39,546
If you want something, come back
in an hour. The clerk's out to lunch.
1103
00:55:39,735 --> 00:55:41,735
Are you Gizzi?
-Yeah.
1104
00:55:44,089 --> 00:55:46,724
I'd like to talk to you about
a special job of tailoring.
1105
00:55:47,425 --> 00:55:49,425
I don't do no special jobs.
1106
00:55:50,119 --> 00:55:52,036
Everything here is plainly marked.
1107
00:55:52,086 --> 00:55:54,947
If you like the price, buy it.
If you don't, go someplace else.
1108
00:55:55,913 --> 00:55:57,538
Even a friend of Rocco's?
1109
00:55:59,468 --> 00:56:00,760
Rocco, huh?
1110
00:56:05,387 --> 00:56:06,721
Nice goods.
1111
00:56:07,732 --> 00:56:09,732
You got a lot of nice merchandise here.
1112
00:56:10,232 --> 00:56:11,131
The best.
1113
00:56:19,646 --> 00:56:21,135
You like the way it fits?
1114
00:56:22,154 --> 00:56:23,763
Sure. Looks good to me.
1115
00:56:25,012 --> 00:56:27,407
What's this special job, friend?
1116
00:56:32,393 --> 00:56:33,487
Say...
1117
00:56:34,908 --> 00:56:36,663
No wonder your coats are so expensive.
1118
00:56:37,574 --> 00:56:38,971
Look what I found in the pocket.
1119
00:56:39,307 --> 00:56:40,778
Five thousand dollars.
1120
00:56:41,643 --> 00:56:44,038
I like them better with
ten thousand in them.
1121
00:56:44,666 --> 00:56:46,866
Then the customer is very satisfied.
1122
00:56:52,571 --> 00:56:54,571
Maybe I better try on another coat.
1123
00:57:05,299 --> 00:57:08,191
Cold for you out here, Gail?
Why don't you get yourself a wrap?
1124
00:57:08,244 --> 00:57:09,557
I'm very comfortable, thanks.
1125
00:57:10,032 --> 00:57:12,032
We haven't all been together
for a long time, Mal.
1126
00:57:12,065 --> 00:57:13,549
What gave you the idea tonight?
1127
00:57:13,599 --> 00:57:15,672
I thought I'd better let
bygones be bygones.
1128
00:57:19,281 --> 00:57:20,767
Besides I...
1129
00:57:20,829 --> 00:57:22,196
I could use a little gin money.
1130
00:57:22,340 --> 00:57:23,826
Smartening up huh, boy?
1131
00:57:24,691 --> 00:57:25,644
That's more like it.
1132
00:57:25,683 --> 00:57:28,199
I'll still show you that I can
beat you at anything.
1133
00:57:28,249 --> 00:57:29,652
Well, I deal.
1134
00:57:31,984 --> 00:57:33,739
Just giving him a little break.
1135
00:57:45,026 --> 00:57:46,225
Dollar a point?
1136
00:57:46,515 --> 00:57:48,515
Don't want to make it too tough on you.
1137
00:57:48,851 --> 00:57:52,301
But even at a buck a point,
the way you play gin I could retire.
1138
00:57:53,961 --> 00:57:55,696
So, I'll help you retire.
1139
00:57:56,196 --> 00:57:59,217
I could use a little luck, Gail.
Why don't you sit next to me?
1140
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,000
Are you sure you want my advice?
1141
00:58:02,281 --> 00:58:07,084
Sure, go ahead. With you kibitzing he's
a cinch to wind up buying me a new car.
1142
00:58:31,895 --> 00:58:35,218
If I draw another card like that,
I'll think something's crooked.
1143
00:58:35,803 --> 00:58:36,862
You can count on it.
1144
00:58:36,912 --> 00:58:38,628
I have to make a living some way.
1145
00:58:39,018 --> 00:58:40,264
Don't say I didn't warn you.
1146
00:58:41,001 --> 00:58:42,326
I'm very sorry.
1147
00:58:42,381 --> 00:58:44,858
How clumsy can you be.
We better get some water on that.
1148
00:58:44,908 --> 00:58:46,039
No, it's nothing, Mal.
1149
00:58:46,457 --> 00:58:48,182
No, come on, we'll fix it.
1150
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:54,554
Stay here.
1151
00:59:04,962 --> 00:59:07,255
The first time it's ever happened to us.
1152
00:59:08,209 --> 00:59:09,801
To others, yes but...
1153
00:59:10,118 --> 00:59:11,304
Never to us.
1154
00:59:11,630 --> 00:59:13,179
How did you make out with the police?
1155
00:59:13,487 --> 00:59:15,078
They sweated me for eight hours.
1156
00:59:15,450 --> 00:59:17,751
When they found out I didn't
know anything, they had to let me go.
1157
00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:19,745
They just told me not to leave town.
1158
00:59:19,795 --> 00:59:21,795
They even questioned me.
1159
00:59:21,855 --> 00:59:23,554
That's bad. Very bad.
1160
00:59:23,817 --> 00:59:26,793
The public should never even be aware
that there is a wire service.
1161
00:59:27,539 --> 00:59:29,293
Lucky you spilled that drink.
1162
00:59:29,601 --> 00:59:31,601
I guess Gail was lucky too.
1163
00:59:32,101 --> 00:59:34,101
Everyone but Larry.
-Yeah.
1164
00:59:34,354 --> 00:59:36,354
I guess you never know, do you?
1165
00:59:36,717 --> 00:59:39,127
Still can't figure out who would want
to kill him though.
1166
00:59:39,444 --> 00:59:41,691
Unless it was one of those bookies
he batted around.
1167
00:59:41,899 --> 00:59:44,889
I don't think so.
It was too carefully planned.
1168
00:59:45,955 --> 00:59:48,800
We still have our everyday problems.
1169
00:59:49,857 --> 00:59:53,086
We'll all have a little talk. Real soon.
1170
00:59:54,548 --> 00:59:57,156
Don't feel that everything
has just ended, my dear.
1171
00:59:57,501 --> 00:59:59,107
If the police...
1172
00:59:59,461 --> 01:00:01,817
Can't discover Larry's murderer,
we will.
1173
01:00:02,317 --> 01:00:03,650
And when we do,
1174
01:00:04,150 --> 01:00:05,582
there'll be another funeral.
1175
01:00:15,306 --> 01:00:17,306
Are you sure you told me everything?
1176
01:00:17,790 --> 01:00:19,652
I thought you were the girl who knew
all the answers.
1177
01:00:19,702 --> 01:00:20,668
Please.
1178
01:00:21,159 --> 01:00:22,830
I didn't have anything to do with it.
1179
01:00:23,202 --> 01:00:24,387
You have to believe me.
1180
01:00:24,695 --> 01:00:26,044
Guess I have to.
1181
01:00:27,191 --> 01:00:28,544
I want to, Mal.
1182
01:00:43,994 --> 01:00:45,994
I have to get out of this house, Mal.
1183
01:00:46,469 --> 01:00:48,862
Every minute is like waiting for it
to happen again.
1184
01:00:48,895 --> 01:00:50,638
It won't happen again. Not to us.
1185
01:00:50,663 --> 01:00:52,125
I'll find you another place to live.
1186
01:00:52,150 --> 01:00:53,902
Maybe you ought to go
to Palm Springs for a while.
1187
01:00:53,940 --> 01:00:55,940
I want to get away from
the whole business, Mal.
1188
01:00:55,990 --> 01:00:57,697
Not just the house, everything.
1189
01:00:57,821 --> 01:00:59,821
I just want to be with you.
-You'll be with me.
1190
01:01:00,020 --> 01:01:02,020
But I can't cut away now.
1191
01:01:02,282 --> 01:01:05,149
They still owe me plenty
from that 70-30 chiseling.
1192
01:01:05,614 --> 01:01:08,447
Six months is all I need to make those
guys pony up every cent they owe me.
1193
01:01:08,485 --> 01:01:10,430
And when you get that, you'll want more.
1194
01:01:10,452 --> 01:01:11,719
Another six months, another year.
1195
01:01:11,752 --> 01:01:13,752
But I'd be a sucker to walk out now.
1196
01:01:13,802 --> 01:01:15,170
Money's the answer to everything.
1197
01:01:15,588 --> 01:01:16,914
Is it?
-Sure.
1198
01:01:19,944 --> 01:01:21,099
Hello, Trudy.
1199
01:01:24,550 --> 01:01:26,302
Chippie said you wanted to see me.
1200
01:01:26,346 --> 01:01:27,973
That's right. You haven't been
around much lately.
1201
01:01:28,023 --> 01:01:29,022
Anything wrong?
1202
01:01:29,204 --> 01:01:30,449
No, not with me.
1203
01:01:30,577 --> 01:01:32,111
Nothing wrong with the business either.
1204
01:01:32,161 --> 01:01:33,491
I'm declaring a dividend.
1205
01:01:33,662 --> 01:01:35,662
No thanks, Mal, I don't want
any part of it.
1206
01:01:39,097 --> 01:01:41,893
Is that why you haven't dragged down
your last couple of week's salary?
1207
01:01:41,917 --> 01:01:42,918
That's why.
1208
01:01:42,968 --> 01:01:44,465
What for? It's money, isn't it?
1209
01:01:44,783 --> 01:01:47,126
This money has a peculiar smell to it.
1210
01:01:47,176 --> 01:01:48,322
One I don't like.
1211
01:01:48,822 --> 01:01:50,822
Looks like things have changed,Trudy?
1212
01:01:50,857 --> 01:01:52,181
That's right, Mal, things have changed.
1213
01:01:52,211 --> 01:01:54,680
Some of the changes,
I'm not so crazy about either.
1214
01:01:54,730 --> 01:01:56,125
Maybe it's just some of the people.
1215
01:01:56,604 --> 01:01:59,808
You're not nailed to the job.
You can quit any time you like.
1216
01:02:00,073 --> 01:02:02,073
That's what I was thinking.
How do you resign around here?
1217
01:02:02,123 --> 01:02:04,123
I'll save you the trouble. You're fired.
1218
01:02:08,978 --> 01:02:10,432
Any more questions?
1219
01:02:11,599 --> 01:02:13,599
No, I guess you've answered
everything, Mal.
1220
01:02:13,724 --> 01:02:14,677
Good.
1221
01:02:22,547 --> 01:02:24,547
Mal Granger in?
-Who wants him?
1222
01:02:25,008 --> 01:02:27,899
Just tell him the man who sold him
the suit. That's all you have to say.
1223
01:02:27,949 --> 01:02:29,394
He's pretty busy. What do you want?
1224
01:02:29,684 --> 01:02:32,531
Like I said. Just tell him the man
who sold him the suit.
1225
01:02:32,830 --> 01:02:34,301
All right, wait here.
1226
01:02:49,439 --> 01:02:51,257
OK, he'll see you.
1227
01:02:58,901 --> 01:03:01,360
How are you, Mal?
You're kind of a tough guy to see.
1228
01:03:01,410 --> 01:03:02,944
Must be pretty busy these days.
1229
01:03:03,270 --> 01:03:05,544
No busier than usual.
What's on your mind?
1230
01:03:05,606 --> 01:03:07,606
It's like this...
1231
01:03:07,914 --> 01:03:10,696
A man always likes to hear a good word
about his work.
1232
01:03:11,552 --> 01:03:14,526
That job I did for you
turned out pretty good, huh?
1233
01:03:14,752 --> 01:03:17,295
Everybody says
you're a real big shot now.
1234
01:03:17,795 --> 01:03:19,795
A big wheel in the syndicate.
1235
01:03:20,094 --> 01:03:21,164
So?
1236
01:03:21,390 --> 01:03:24,260
So I figure a big wheel
has gotta go out more.
1237
01:03:25,408 --> 01:03:27,408
If you are, you gotta dress up.
1238
01:03:28,118 --> 01:03:30,392
Maybe you need some more suits, huh?
1239
01:03:31,123 --> 01:03:32,729
I got all the clothes
I can use right now.
1240
01:03:32,762 --> 01:03:34,762
Say you put up 25 G's.
1241
01:03:34,791 --> 01:03:35,973
For a new wardrobe.
1242
01:03:36,023 --> 01:03:37,711
Then you'd look good
no matter what comes up.
1243
01:03:38,656 --> 01:03:40,656
I can't afford it. It's too expensive.
1244
01:03:40,900 --> 01:03:42,900
It'd be a good buy.
1245
01:03:42,943 --> 01:03:44,273
I might take a trip back
1246
01:03:44,323 --> 01:03:47,078
to the old country for 3 or 4 months
to see my relatives.
1247
01:03:55,437 --> 01:03:57,940
It would be a good time
for me to take a trip.
1248
01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:00,440
Good for you too.
1249
01:04:02,956 --> 01:04:04,467
Maybe you got a deal, Gizzi.
1250
01:04:04,517 --> 01:04:05,821
If you leave right away.
1251
01:04:06,047 --> 01:04:08,047
I'll have it for you tonight.
1252
01:04:08,547 --> 01:04:10,684
We better meet somewhere
where we won't be seen.
1253
01:04:10,766 --> 01:04:12,766
How about the Malibu pier at 10 O'clock?
1254
01:04:12,816 --> 01:04:14,053
Malibu pier.
1255
01:04:14,316 --> 01:04:15,714
10 O'clock.
1256
01:04:24,662 --> 01:04:26,662
Hello.
1257
01:04:27,162 --> 01:04:29,162
Hello, Carl, how are you?
1258
01:04:29,516 --> 01:04:30,611
Tonight?
1259
01:04:32,216 --> 01:04:34,216
Do we have to have a meeting tonight?
1260
01:04:35,875 --> 01:04:37,483
All right, if you say so.
1261
01:04:38,439 --> 01:04:39,983
Dinner at 8:30.
1262
01:04:49,123 --> 01:04:52,025
I'm glad you were able to
spare us the time, Mal.
1263
01:04:52,242 --> 01:04:53,511
Yeah, sure.
1264
01:04:55,073 --> 01:04:57,986
This meeting concerns you
perhaps more than it does us.
1265
01:04:58,036 --> 01:04:59,343
What's it all about anyway?
1266
01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:02,491
Larry's death.
1267
01:05:03,767 --> 01:05:07,775
We have decided that for you at least
it has come at an opportune time.
1268
01:05:08,558 --> 01:05:11,432
We're going to put you in charge
of the entire west coast.
1269
01:05:11,932 --> 01:05:13,079
Oh, that's fine.
1270
01:05:13,597 --> 01:05:15,216
But maybe I'm not quite ready yet.
1271
01:05:15,266 --> 01:05:16,617
I've still got a lot to learn.
1272
01:05:16,971 --> 01:05:17,990
Remember me?
1273
01:05:18,081 --> 01:05:21,099
The country boy that got sucked
into a 70-30 deal?
1274
01:05:21,132 --> 01:05:23,132
We told you that was necessary expenses.
1275
01:05:23,166 --> 01:05:24,773
You got nothing to kick about.
1276
01:05:24,821 --> 01:05:26,821
You'll be getting a part of
Larry's take from now on.
1277
01:05:26,871 --> 01:05:32,277
The big problem on this coast is to
take care of Larry's murderer.
1278
01:05:33,212 --> 01:05:35,851
As long as the assassin is free,
1279
01:05:36,114 --> 01:05:38,114
others might get ideas about us.
1280
01:05:38,495 --> 01:05:40,322
Maybe we ought to let
the police handle it.
1281
01:05:40,420 --> 01:05:42,420
They at least have got some leads.
1282
01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:46,067
It would have a more salutary effect
if we took care of it ourselves.
1283
01:05:46,786 --> 01:05:49,145
And I mean to do just that.
1284
01:05:51,088 --> 01:05:53,088
What we must decide tonight...
1285
01:05:53,780 --> 01:05:55,215
Is where to start.
1286
01:05:55,782 --> 01:05:58,845
Larry's murder was obviously
one of revenge.
1287
01:05:58,878 --> 01:06:00,007
Did you make out that list?
1288
01:06:00,057 --> 01:06:02,057
We had a little trouble
around Kansas City.
1289
01:06:02,376 --> 01:06:04,119
Kelly and Rasta both swore to get him.
1290
01:06:05,284 --> 01:06:06,409
But they didn't.
1291
01:06:06,837 --> 01:06:08,471
I've already checked there.
1292
01:06:08,651 --> 01:06:10,651
Kelly has been in the hospital
for months.
1293
01:06:11,315 --> 01:06:12,563
And Rasta
1294
01:06:12,890 --> 01:06:15,145
was in Kansas City
the night Larry was killed.
1295
01:06:16,476 --> 01:06:18,476
Maybe it was someone from out here.
1296
01:06:18,857 --> 01:06:20,236
Somebody he crossed.
1297
01:06:21,266 --> 01:06:22,391
It was.
1298
01:06:23,010 --> 01:06:24,340
I'm sure of that.
1299
01:06:25,214 --> 01:06:27,214
But none of these local bookmakers would
1300
01:06:27,285 --> 01:06:29,714
dare to attempt such a rubout.
1301
01:06:30,789 --> 01:06:34,347
Unless, of course, they hired
someone to do it.
1302
01:06:34,509 --> 01:06:36,509
And probably someone from out of town.
1303
01:06:36,918 --> 01:06:39,402
There's one guy in L.A.
who might handle a job like this.
1304
01:06:39,582 --> 01:06:41,902
I knew him back in Detroit.
His name's Gizzi.
1305
01:06:42,941 --> 01:06:46,727
Surely there must be more than one
suspect in a town of this size.
1306
01:06:47,538 --> 01:06:50,492
I think we better call
all the hoodlums in.
1307
01:06:51,348 --> 01:06:53,558
What do you think, Mal?
-Yeah, sure.
1308
01:06:53,787 --> 01:06:54,660
Good idea.
1309
01:06:54,710 --> 01:06:55,759
I'll take care of it.
1310
01:06:55,903 --> 01:06:56,641
Good.
1311
01:06:56,848 --> 01:06:59,452
Then we'll start with Mr. Gizzi and
1312
01:06:59,550 --> 01:07:00,861
go on from there.
1313
01:07:01,215 --> 01:07:04,753
Sorry to have taken up so much
of your time, Mal, but
1314
01:07:05,564 --> 01:07:08,661
I hope you realize
that this business is urgent.
1315
01:07:09,003 --> 01:07:10,063
Oh, sure.
1316
01:07:11,570 --> 01:07:12,755
Good night.
1317
01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:16,141
Good night.
1318
01:07:19,627 --> 01:07:21,627
Good night.
-See you.
1319
01:07:55,634 --> 01:07:57,423
Thee you are, Gizzi.
1320
01:07:58,156 --> 01:07:59,789
And take my advice.
1321
01:07:59,839 --> 01:08:01,492
Make this a nice long trip.
1322
01:08:04,305 --> 01:08:05,517
Think I should?
1323
01:08:07,652 --> 01:08:10,075
I got to worrying
after I left you today.
1324
01:08:11,107 --> 01:08:13,006
What happens
if somebody puts the heat on you?
1325
01:08:13,039 --> 01:08:14,820
Who's gonna protect you then?
-I will.
1326
01:08:14,863 --> 01:08:16,644
You just go and visit your relatives.
1327
01:08:16,683 --> 01:08:18,683
Believe me, you need this trip.
1328
01:08:18,733 --> 01:08:21,705
I waited a long time.
I can wait a little longer.
1329
01:08:22,250 --> 01:08:24,966
Particularly now I got my eye
on a new business.
1330
01:08:25,016 --> 01:08:26,129
Oh, not mine.
1331
01:08:26,595 --> 01:08:28,595
Yours.
-I'll handle it myself.
1332
01:08:28,619 --> 01:08:29,904
I don't need you, Gizzi.
1333
01:08:29,954 --> 01:08:31,268
I say you do.
1334
01:08:31,705 --> 01:08:33,327
Just a silent partner.
1335
01:08:33,420 --> 01:08:35,862
Somebody to look after your interests
while you
1336
01:08:35,902 --> 01:08:37,313
chase around with that dame of Mason's.
1337
01:08:37,341 --> 01:08:38,433
you leave her out of this.
1338
01:08:38,483 --> 01:08:40,804
After all she's pretty and young.
1339
01:08:41,091 --> 01:08:44,058
She might get into all kind of trouble
if you don't keep her happy.
1340
01:08:44,091 --> 01:08:45,507
I tell you, leave her out of this.
1341
01:08:45,557 --> 01:08:46,563
Stubborn, huh?
1342
01:08:47,046 --> 01:08:50,331
You can't afford to argue, Mal,
you're cutting me in.
1343
01:08:50,468 --> 01:08:52,468
I'd have to figure out
how to cut you in.
1344
01:08:52,518 --> 01:08:53,838
And while I was figuring it,
1345
01:08:54,185 --> 01:08:55,894
a lot of things might happen.
1346
01:08:55,944 --> 01:08:58,218
A lot more will happen
if you don't cut me in.
1347
01:08:58,955 --> 01:09:02,029
I'll give you till tomorrow
to make up your mind.
1348
01:09:05,049 --> 01:09:07,853
I get kind of nervous
when people keep me waiting.
1349
01:09:13,814 --> 01:09:15,814
I'll be seeing you, partner.
1350
01:09:51,786 --> 01:09:53,255
You look sick.
1351
01:09:53,755 --> 01:09:55,755
Get me a drink.
1352
01:09:56,255 --> 01:09:58,255
Am I glad you're home.
1353
01:09:58,335 --> 01:10:00,490
I tried all over town to catch you.
1354
01:10:01,858 --> 01:10:03,858
That cop wants you to call him.
1355
01:10:04,778 --> 01:10:06,778
Pete Wright?
-Yeah.
1356
01:10:06,922 --> 01:10:08,922
He wants to talk to you tonight.
1357
01:10:12,612 --> 01:10:14,612
What does he want?
Where did you tell him I was?
1358
01:10:14,662 --> 01:10:16,203
I just said you would call him. Period.
1359
01:10:16,292 --> 01:10:20,357
I tried to stall him. Told him I thought
you went to Palm Springs to see Gail.
1360
01:10:29,572 --> 01:10:31,346
I'd call him right now if I were you.
1361
01:10:31,396 --> 01:10:33,396
You don't want him coming here
to pick you up.
1362
01:11:05,136 --> 01:11:06,374
Long distance?
1363
01:11:06,424 --> 01:11:09,490
I want Palm Springs 23654.
1364
01:11:16,460 --> 01:11:18,257
Hello.
-Hello, Gail?
1365
01:11:18,307 --> 01:11:20,307
Oh, Mal, I've been hoping you'd call.
1366
01:11:21,891 --> 01:11:23,236
Is anything wrong?
1367
01:11:23,309 --> 01:11:24,780
I'll tell you about it when I see yo.
1368
01:11:24,826 --> 01:11:26,606
But you got to do something
for me right away.
1369
01:11:26,642 --> 01:11:29,254
You know that relay amplifier
I rigged up when I was down there?
1370
01:11:29,271 --> 01:11:31,271
That thing I used to keep in touch
with all the offices?
1371
01:11:31,291 --> 01:11:32,656
It's still here but...
1372
01:11:32,706 --> 01:11:33,884
What's all this about?
1373
01:11:34,529 --> 01:11:36,529
Is it Carl?
-Not yet.
1374
01:11:36,657 --> 01:11:39,354
But unless you do exactly as I tell you,
I'm going to be in a lot of trouble.
1375
01:11:39,404 --> 01:11:40,313
Go ahead, Mal.
1376
01:11:40,614 --> 01:11:41,917
Pick up the other phone.
1377
01:11:41,950 --> 01:11:45,971
And call Pete Wright of the gangster
squad in Los Angeles.
1378
01:11:46,019 --> 01:11:49,266
When you get him, put each phone
in the cradles of the amplifier.
1379
01:11:49,316 --> 01:11:50,288
You understand that?
1380
01:11:50,712 --> 01:11:51,784
OK. Call him.
1381
01:12:00,892 --> 01:12:02,166
OK, Mal.
1382
01:12:10,038 --> 01:12:11,278
Hello, operator.
1383
01:12:11,586 --> 01:12:15,041
I want to call Los Angeles.
Michigan 5211, please.
1384
01:12:18,500 --> 01:12:21,436
Lieutenant Wright please.
Palm Springs calling.
1385
01:12:24,053 --> 01:12:25,826
Gangster squad, Wright speaking.
1386
01:12:26,025 --> 01:12:28,845
Lieutenant Wright, this is Gail Mason.
1387
01:12:29,345 --> 01:12:31,345
Just a moment. Mal wants to talk to you.
1388
01:12:31,845 --> 01:12:33,845
Put the beeper on. I want this recorded.
1389
01:12:40,567 --> 01:12:41,834
Hello, Granger?
1390
01:12:42,027 --> 01:12:44,580
What are you doing in Palm Springs?
You were told not to leave town.
1391
01:12:44,610 --> 01:12:46,068
That's what I'm calling you about.
1392
01:12:46,094 --> 01:12:48,424
Gail needed a rest pretty badly
and I thought
1393
01:12:48,441 --> 01:12:50,125
I thought I could
use some sun myself so uh..
1394
01:12:50,175 --> 01:12:52,330
We decided to run down here on our own.
1395
01:12:52,580 --> 01:12:54,250
I thought you'd be celebrating.
1396
01:12:54,300 --> 01:12:56,300
Word's around town
you just had a promotion.
1397
01:12:57,321 --> 01:12:59,888
How does it feel
having Larry Mason's old job?
1398
01:13:00,151 --> 01:13:01,455
You know a lot, don't you?
1399
01:13:01,672 --> 01:13:05,064
I like to keep tabs on a guy who's
going up in the world so rapidly.
1400
01:13:05,265 --> 01:13:06,167
Thanks.
1401
01:13:06,196 --> 01:13:06,985
Don't mention it.
1402
01:13:07,035 --> 01:13:08,662
Better stay put, Granger. That's all.
1403
01:13:09,140 --> 01:13:12,195
I just wanted him on the record
about taking over the west coast.
1404
01:13:12,243 --> 01:13:13,214
Well, we got it.
1405
01:13:13,264 --> 01:13:15,594
It may come in handy
if we ever go before the grand jury.
1406
01:13:17,093 --> 01:13:19,093
BEVERLY HILLS TAILOR SLAIN
POLICE SUSPECT GANGLAND KILLING
1407
01:13:19,206 --> 01:13:21,754
This coroner's report
doesn't add up at all.
1408
01:13:21,889 --> 01:13:25,184
According to him, Gizzi was crushed to
death before he was dumped in the ocean.
1409
01:13:25,310 --> 01:13:26,549
No water in his lungs.
1410
01:13:27,049 --> 01:13:29,049
The crime lab report isn't in yet.
1411
01:13:29,083 --> 01:13:31,531
Sounds like just another wrong guy
rubbed out.
1412
01:13:31,581 --> 01:13:32,937
But it wasn't a gang job.
1413
01:13:33,019 --> 01:13:34,588
It doesn't have
the right characteristics.
1414
01:13:34,643 --> 01:13:35,844
He had money on him.
1415
01:13:35,874 --> 01:13:37,661
So robbery's out.
1416
01:13:37,689 --> 01:13:39,215
I think it was done
on the spur of the moment.
1417
01:13:39,265 --> 01:13:40,565
I can't get it.
1418
01:13:41,402 --> 01:13:42,474
What's the matter?
1419
01:13:42,524 --> 01:13:44,166
If it's not Bing Crosby,
you don't like it?
1420
01:13:44,237 --> 01:13:47,144
It's that one you ran on Granger.
I can't get part of it.
1421
01:13:47,236 --> 01:13:49,658
A whistle keeps drowning out
something he's saying.
1422
01:13:49,708 --> 01:13:51,334
Let me hear it.
Maybe I can figure it out.
1423
01:13:51,533 --> 01:13:52,646
Right here.
1424
01:13:53,274 --> 01:13:55,274
Gail needed a rest pretty badly and I
1425
01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:57,400
so uh...
1426
01:13:57,462 --> 01:13:59,462
decided to run down here on our own.
1427
01:13:59,880 --> 01:14:01,880
That's some kind of a streetcar whistle.
1428
01:14:01,916 --> 01:14:03,970
Whatever it is they don't have
any transportation running
1429
01:14:04,020 --> 01:14:06,332
right through the center
of Palm Springs.
1430
01:14:06,628 --> 01:14:08,628
you know a lot,don't you?
1431
01:14:08,717 --> 01:14:10,717
Granger wasn't there at all.
1432
01:14:10,961 --> 01:14:13,762
Why did he go to so much trouble
to rig up an alibi?
1433
01:14:14,681 --> 01:14:16,280
We better have a talk with him.
1434
01:14:18,975 --> 01:14:20,887
BEVERLY HILLS TAILOR SLAIN
POLICE SUSPECT GANGLAND KILLING
1435
01:14:32,869 --> 01:14:34,237
Mal.
1436
01:14:35,449 --> 01:14:37,961
This happened right about the time
you talked to me.
1437
01:14:38,507 --> 01:14:39,685
Well?
1438
01:14:41,504 --> 01:14:43,504
Did your alibi have anything to do
with this?
1439
01:14:43,554 --> 01:14:46,018
You've been around long enough
not to ask questions like that.
1440
01:14:47,274 --> 01:14:48,582
Who was he, Mal?
1441
01:14:48,762 --> 01:14:49,942
How do I know?
1442
01:14:51,533 --> 01:14:52,880
Was he the one who shot Larry?
1443
01:14:55,490 --> 01:14:57,808
You hired him to kill Larry
then you had to kill him.
1444
01:14:58,917 --> 01:15:00,071
I never thought that you'd...
1445
01:15:00,724 --> 01:15:01,751
That I'd what?
1446
01:15:02,643 --> 01:15:04,643
Murder.
-Don't say that. I don't like it!
1447
01:15:18,611 --> 01:15:20,311
That's what Larry would have done.
1448
01:15:21,432 --> 01:15:23,846
I'm sorry. It will never
happen again. I promise you.
1449
01:15:28,410 --> 01:15:30,410
I just don't want anything
to happen to you.
1450
01:15:31,614 --> 01:15:32,964
Nothing's going to happen to me.
1451
01:15:54,264 --> 01:15:55,318
Hello?
1452
01:15:55,848 --> 01:15:57,188
Oh, hello, Wright.
1453
01:15:57,852 --> 01:15:59,852
Yeah, sure, I'm still down here.
1454
01:16:02,297 --> 01:16:04,069
What's all the rush about?
1455
01:16:07,406 --> 01:16:08,450
All right.
1456
01:16:08,950 --> 01:16:10,950
See you at headquarters at 3 O'clock.
1457
01:16:12,992 --> 01:16:14,738
What do you mean you don't know
what that whistle is?
1458
01:16:15,238 --> 01:16:16,526
Take another look, Granger.
1459
01:16:16,734 --> 01:16:19,259
This is a recording
of a streetcar whistle.
1460
01:16:19,348 --> 01:16:23,034
This is a recording of your phone call.
1461
01:16:24,192 --> 01:16:26,997
Identical sounds. Streetcar whistles.
1462
01:16:27,497 --> 01:16:30,140
There are no streetcars in Palm Springs.
1463
01:16:30,640 --> 01:16:32,640
I still don't know what
you're so excited about.
1464
01:16:32,978 --> 01:16:34,684
I've been around electronics.
1465
01:16:34,734 --> 01:16:36,734
You could have butched up
that recording yourself.
1466
01:16:36,978 --> 01:16:40,084
It might have been a streetcar from
around here. They do go past here.
1467
01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:41,678
You think of everything, don't you?
1468
01:16:41,867 --> 01:16:43,867
But you were framing
an alibi that night.
1469
01:16:44,075 --> 01:16:45,688
That cathode ray proves it.
1470
01:16:45,834 --> 01:16:47,377
Why would I need an alibi?
1471
01:16:47,427 --> 01:16:48,350
You tell us.
1472
01:16:48,530 --> 01:16:50,154
A lot of things happened that night.
1473
01:16:50,207 --> 01:16:51,722
But only one would interest you.
1474
01:16:52,042 --> 01:16:53,353
A guy named Gizzi.
1475
01:16:53,381 --> 01:16:54,756
The guy went off the pier.
1476
01:16:54,797 --> 01:16:56,009
I never even heard of him.
1477
01:16:56,059 --> 01:16:59,006
If you guys are going to drag me down
here every time you get a brainstorm.
1478
01:16:59,059 --> 01:16:59,926
We are.
1479
01:17:00,189 --> 01:17:02,965
And one of those brainstorms is going
to get you in trouble, big shot.
1480
01:17:03,365 --> 01:17:05,869
I have a hunch you got my message
at the beach all right.
1481
01:17:06,195 --> 01:17:09,101
But you didn't call Palm Springs from
your house. You're too smart for that.
1482
01:17:09,291 --> 01:17:11,256
You probably went to the drug store
and called Mrs. Mason
1483
01:17:11,306 --> 01:17:13,023
and had her hook up your call.
1484
01:17:13,394 --> 01:17:15,513
You've heard of relay amplifiers,
haven't you?
1485
01:17:15,693 --> 01:17:17,162
Maybe I have and maybe I haven't.
1486
01:17:17,452 --> 01:17:21,015
I'm tired of playing games
over some stupid train whistle.
1487
01:17:21,122 --> 01:17:23,953
Either book me, let me call my lawyer,
or let me get out of here.
1488
01:17:24,453 --> 01:17:26,131
OK, Granger, you can beat it.
1489
01:17:26,222 --> 01:17:27,211
Thanks.
1490
01:17:27,241 --> 01:17:29,200
The next time I bring you in,
it's to stay.
1491
01:17:29,231 --> 01:17:31,300
So don't get any ideas
about leaving town.
1492
01:17:31,350 --> 01:17:33,350
What makes you think
there's going to be a next time?
1493
01:17:37,311 --> 01:17:39,680
Don't worry, we'll be ready
in five minutes.
1494
01:17:41,559 --> 01:17:43,194
That's not what I'm worried about.
1495
01:17:43,904 --> 01:17:46,271
There's nothing the matter, is there?
You're going with me?
1496
01:17:47,445 --> 01:17:48,634
Of course I am.
1497
01:17:48,851 --> 01:17:50,851
All right, you wanted to get away.
Now you're doing it.
1498
01:17:53,150 --> 01:17:54,100
Look.
1499
01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:58,385
You know I wouldn't let anything happen
to you. I got everything figured out.
1500
01:17:58,885 --> 01:18:00,885
If it were only the police,
we'd have a chance.
1501
01:18:01,257 --> 01:18:02,369
But there's Carl.
1502
01:18:03,097 --> 01:18:05,686
I've seen too many try it but I've
never seen anyone make it.
1503
01:18:05,985 --> 01:18:07,985
Come here, let me show you something.
1504
01:18:12,430 --> 01:18:15,254
There's $230,000 in cash.
1505
01:18:15,462 --> 01:18:17,462
I didn't get that by being stupid.
1506
01:18:17,715 --> 01:18:20,126
And I know where I got about
that much more waiting.
1507
01:18:20,489 --> 01:18:22,489
And I'll tell you where
we're going to get it.
1508
01:18:22,533 --> 01:18:23,865
We're going to Las Vegas.
1509
01:18:23,915 --> 01:18:25,030
You, me and Chippie.
1510
01:18:25,628 --> 01:18:27,030
Las Vegas?
1511
01:18:27,530 --> 01:18:29,530
That's the last place Carl will figure.
1512
01:18:31,893 --> 01:18:35,306
This is one time I make those guys
pay off every cent they owe me.
1513
01:18:36,577 --> 01:18:40,117
While I was still trying to hook up
Granger with Gizzi's murder in L.A.,
1514
01:18:40,270 --> 01:18:42,270
he was fixing things for a real haul.
1515
01:18:42,414 --> 01:18:43,912
It was a dangerous plan.
1516
01:18:44,065 --> 01:18:46,065
But by now, Mal was too driven to care.
1517
01:18:46,531 --> 01:18:49,177
Mal knew which books the syndicate
owned in las Vegas.
1518
01:18:49,227 --> 01:18:51,065
And he was going to past post them.
1519
01:18:51,565 --> 01:18:54,637
If he was caught,
he was dead right then.
1520
01:18:54,836 --> 01:18:58,688
He tapped the cables of the wire service
that led to all the horse parlors.
1521
01:18:58,887 --> 01:19:01,684
And electrically set their clocks
back two minutes.
1522
01:19:02,385 --> 01:19:04,385
Then he stretched wires
into a hotel room.
1523
01:19:04,885 --> 01:19:07,683
Between the connections
were tape recording machines.
1524
01:19:08,831 --> 01:19:11,781
By next afternoon, Granger was
all set for the kill.
1525
01:19:12,712 --> 01:19:13,747
How do I look?
1526
01:19:13,771 --> 01:19:15,771
Hope I look better than I feel,
'cause I don't feel so good.
1527
01:19:15,821 --> 01:19:17,492
You look fine, Chippie.
Now, you got it straight?
1528
01:19:17,555 --> 01:19:19,966
Your station is at the horse parlor
across the way.
1529
01:19:20,121 --> 01:19:21,191
When I get the winner,
1530
01:19:21,233 --> 01:19:23,529
I'll cut in on the loudspeaker
with the late price change.
1531
01:19:23,572 --> 01:19:25,361
I'll use a phony voice like this.
1532
01:19:25,395 --> 01:19:28,238
Flash. The odds on number three
in the seventh
1533
01:19:28,288 --> 01:19:30,509
race are now 8 to 1.
-Hey, that's good.
1534
01:19:30,644 --> 01:19:33,019
Now the number of the horse
I call is the winner.
1535
01:19:33,337 --> 01:19:35,850
And I'm going to sock $3,000 across the
board on number 7 in the eighth race.
1536
01:19:35,888 --> 01:19:39,456
No, the seventh race. Number 3
in the seventh race.
1537
01:19:39,483 --> 01:19:41,206
Mal, what if I get it wrong?
-Don't worry, Chippie.
1538
01:19:41,228 --> 01:19:43,513
It'll be the last time you ever get
anything wrong in your life.
1539
01:19:43,545 --> 01:19:45,021
I hope so.
-Now remember.
1540
01:19:45,045 --> 01:19:47,045
It's just the number of the horse I call
1541
01:19:47,074 --> 01:19:49,543
and the seventh and eighth
races in California but
1542
01:19:49,557 --> 01:19:51,557
you gotta make a couple of
sucker bets first.
1543
01:19:51,572 --> 01:19:54,000
If I want to pick a loser, I'll pick
a winner. It's just my luck.
1544
01:19:54,029 --> 01:19:56,112
No, we got to build up
a couple of losses
1545
01:19:56,131 --> 01:19:57,618
so they won't think anything about it
1546
01:19:57,668 --> 01:19:59,357
when we really start to
chunk it in later.
1547
01:20:00,616 --> 01:20:01,804
OK, get going.
1548
01:20:01,854 --> 01:20:03,854
I've already told Gail what to do.
1549
01:20:04,765 --> 01:20:06,893
In the third in California
1550
01:20:07,047 --> 01:20:09,393
Make the show horse $2.60
1551
01:20:09,455 --> 01:20:10,876
instead of $2.80.
1552
01:20:10,995 --> 01:20:13,766
They're nearing the post
for the seventh in California.
1553
01:20:13,816 --> 01:20:15,088
Here's the reading.
1554
01:20:15,761 --> 01:20:17,232
Here are the readings.
1555
01:20:17,604 --> 01:20:19,458
Even money on top.
1556
01:20:19,958 --> 01:20:21,958
20, 4
1557
01:20:22,029 --> 01:20:23,180
1558
01:20:23,306 --> 01:20:24,698
scratch one.
1559
01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:26,760
10, 6
1560
01:20:27,023 --> 01:20:29,023
2 1/2 and 8 on the bottom.
1561
01:20:30,325 --> 01:20:31,998
Granger was now ready.
1562
01:20:32,297 --> 01:20:35,364
He was recording the running of the race
on one tape recorder.
1563
01:20:35,438 --> 01:20:38,191
And holding up the recorded results
for two minutes.
1564
01:20:38,241 --> 01:20:42,155
On the other machine he was releasing
the delayed results to the horse parlors
1565
01:20:42,655 --> 01:20:45,279
They're off and running in the seventh
in California.
1566
01:20:45,889 --> 01:20:48,430
At the quarter it's number 8 by a neck.
1567
01:20:48,601 --> 01:20:50,601
Number 6 by a head.
1568
01:20:50,772 --> 01:20:52,184
And number 2.
1569
01:20:53,926 --> 01:20:57,227
They're still at the post
in the seventh at California.
1570
01:20:57,325 --> 01:21:02,248
They're still at the post in the seventh
at California. Number 3 is acting up.
1571
01:21:11,613 --> 01:21:13,302
Nothing to it.
1572
01:21:14,234 --> 01:21:15,473
In the stretch,
1573
01:21:15,553 --> 01:21:17,553
It's number 2 by a length,
1574
01:21:17,615 --> 01:21:19,396
number 6 by a head,
1575
01:21:19,862 --> 01:21:21,862
and number 8 is running third.
1576
01:21:21,912 --> 01:21:23,912
Here are the winners at California,
1577
01:21:24,412 --> 01:21:27,154
Number 2 wins it by three lengths.
1578
01:21:28,397 --> 01:21:29,711
They're still at the post.
1579
01:21:30,068 --> 01:21:31,402
Here comes a flash.
1580
01:21:31,902 --> 01:21:33,355
Here comes a flash.
1581
01:21:33,866 --> 01:21:35,152
Number 2
1582
01:21:35,524 --> 01:21:38,043
Number 2 is now 15
1583
01:21:38,369 --> 01:21:40,791
Number 2 is now 15
1584
01:21:41,540 --> 01:21:43,863
Two thousand across the board
on number 2 please.
1585
01:21:43,913 --> 01:21:44,980
Yes, ma'am.
1586
01:21:47,106 --> 01:21:49,446
Three thousand across the board
on number 2.
1587
01:21:49,544 --> 01:21:51,544
Just a minute. Al?
1588
01:21:52,722 --> 01:21:55,723
This fellow wants to bet $3,000
across the board on number 2.
1589
01:21:55,773 --> 01:21:57,773
They're not off yet in California.
1590
01:21:57,862 --> 01:21:59,185
Number 2
1591
01:21:59,274 --> 01:22:00,659
Is back to 20.
1592
01:22:00,851 --> 01:22:02,851
He's already lost $8,000.
1593
01:22:02,901 --> 01:22:04,142
Guess he's trying to get even.
1594
01:22:04,370 --> 01:22:06,370
Take it. They're still at the post.
1595
01:22:06,420 --> 01:22:07,480
OK.
1596
01:22:11,606 --> 01:22:14,435
They're off and running
in the seventh at California.
1597
01:22:14,497 --> 01:22:17,361
At the quarter it's number 8 by a neck,
1598
01:22:17,477 --> 01:22:19,103
Number 6 by a head,
1599
01:22:19,238 --> 01:22:20,649
And number 2.
1600
01:22:20,893 --> 01:22:23,968
At the half it's number 6
by a half a length,
1601
01:22:24,221 --> 01:22:26,221
Number 2 by a head,.
1602
01:22:26,301 --> 01:22:27,578
and number 8.
1603
01:22:27,834 --> 01:22:29,476
In the stretch,
1604
01:22:29,526 --> 01:22:31,526
It's number 2 by a length,
1605
01:22:31,588 --> 01:22:33,297
number 6 by a head,
1606
01:22:33,571 --> 01:22:35,571
and number 8 is running third.
1607
01:22:35,621 --> 01:22:37,621
Here are the winners at California,
1608
01:22:37,966 --> 01:22:40,406
Number 2 wins it by three lengths.
1609
01:22:40,577 --> 01:22:42,577
Number 6 is second.
1610
01:22:42,657 --> 01:22:44,657
And number 8 is third.
1611
01:22:46,846 --> 01:22:49,647
It's OK in California in the eighth.
1612
01:22:49,828 --> 01:22:52,147
That's number 9 Milargo,
1613
01:22:52,391 --> 01:22:54,391
number 1 Zapata,
1614
01:22:54,447 --> 01:22:56,638
and number 3 Thirador.
1615
01:22:56,688 --> 01:22:58,944
That's 9, 1, and 3.
1616
01:22:59,983 --> 01:23:01,983
Pardon me.
1617
01:23:11,686 --> 01:23:13,215
You hit us pretty hard.
1618
01:23:13,478 --> 01:23:15,669
I'm afraid we haven't got this kind
of money on hand.
1619
01:23:15,955 --> 01:23:17,908
Would you mind taking a check?
You can cash it
1620
01:23:17,958 --> 01:23:19,735
at the bank when it opens
in the morning.
1621
01:23:20,263 --> 01:23:21,918
I guess it'll be all right.
1622
01:23:22,418 --> 01:23:23,796
I'll get it right away.
1623
01:23:24,587 --> 01:23:27,326
Here you are, Chippie.
The hotel paid Gail off in cash.
1624
01:23:27,359 --> 01:23:28,874
Did you get rid of those
lines on the roof?
1625
01:23:28,912 --> 01:23:31,205
You wouldn't know anybody was up
there. Not even a cigarette butt on it.
1626
01:23:31,255 --> 01:23:34,250
All we got to do is cash Chippie's check
in the morning and then, darling...
1627
01:23:34,628 --> 01:23:35,588
We're retired.
1628
01:23:35,805 --> 01:23:36,996
I'm afraid.
1629
01:23:37,462 --> 01:23:39,462
Between the police and Carl.
-It's all over.
1630
01:23:39,495 --> 01:23:40,973
We're going to sink without a trace.
1631
01:23:41,023 --> 01:23:43,507
We just lie low at the Boulder Inn
for a couple of weeks and then
1632
01:23:43,609 --> 01:23:44,775
we're off to Guatemala.
1633
01:23:44,817 --> 01:23:46,269
Maybe you will but how about me?
1634
01:23:46,299 --> 01:23:48,479
If they start looking,
Vegas will give them all the answers.
1635
01:23:48,497 --> 01:23:49,436
Let's not borrow trouble.
1636
01:23:49,444 --> 01:23:51,857
There's only one road out. If they
check the railroads and the airlines...
1637
01:23:51,907 --> 01:23:52,719
Chippie...
1638
01:23:52,784 --> 01:23:55,466
Just in case of a tie,
I got a place all picked out.
1639
01:23:55,966 --> 01:23:57,966
That's him all right.
1640
01:23:58,019 --> 01:23:59,627
He didn't say his name was Granger.
1641
01:24:00,127 --> 01:24:02,630
He brought in a Cadillac
with a marked up fender.
1642
01:24:02,703 --> 01:24:05,130
I rubbed it down and airbrushed it
while he waited.
1643
01:24:05,319 --> 01:24:06,677
Made it look good as new.
1644
01:24:06,752 --> 01:24:09,170
And the paint was identical with
the sample we showed you?
1645
01:24:09,199 --> 01:24:11,199
Yeah, Cadillac green.
1646
01:24:11,235 --> 01:24:13,235
Thanks. That's all we need.
1647
01:24:13,285 --> 01:24:14,284
Let's pick up Granger.
1648
01:24:14,355 --> 01:24:16,848
Nobody else has been able to tell me
how my books
1649
01:24:16,898 --> 01:24:19,653
were hit for a quarter of a million
dollars in one day, Healy.
1650
01:24:20,171 --> 01:24:22,171
What makes you think you can?
-Nothing maybe.
1651
01:24:22,424 --> 01:24:25,108
But the day it happened, I saw
Chippie Evans cashing a wad.
1652
01:24:25,434 --> 01:24:27,131
And Mal Granger was in town too.
1653
01:24:27,193 --> 01:24:28,152
I saw him.
1654
01:24:28,187 --> 01:24:29,072
Go on.
1655
01:24:29,106 --> 01:24:30,848
I just figured they went down
for the weekend.
1656
01:24:30,898 --> 01:24:32,062
When I heard what happened...
1657
01:24:32,546 --> 01:24:34,052
You'll figure it out for yourself.
1658
01:24:34,214 --> 01:24:36,214
Now it adds up.
1659
01:24:36,358 --> 01:24:39,856
Only one man in the world would know
how to past post up here.
1660
01:24:40,055 --> 01:24:41,650
Mal Granger.
1661
01:24:42,150 --> 01:24:44,587
Now I'm sure of a lot of things.
1662
01:24:44,806 --> 01:24:46,054
Larry's death.
1663
01:24:46,104 --> 01:24:47,409
Mrs. Mason was with him.
1664
01:24:48,263 --> 01:24:49,909
You've done us a favor, Healy.
1665
01:24:50,101 --> 01:24:51,845
When I get back to L.A.,
1666
01:24:51,878 --> 01:24:54,070
I'll see that you're set up
with a new book.
1667
01:24:54,120 --> 01:24:55,072
Thanks.
1668
01:24:55,228 --> 01:24:58,606
If you could just tell us
where Granger is staying.
1669
01:24:58,656 --> 01:24:59,864
He's not here now.
1670
01:25:00,236 --> 01:25:02,889
He wouldn't take a chance on getting
cut off in a place like this.
1671
01:25:03,389 --> 01:25:06,030
That's why you'll never be anything
but a bookmaker, Healy.
1672
01:25:06,925 --> 01:25:08,925
Mal Granger's too smart to run.
1673
01:25:08,975 --> 01:25:12,431
He'd stay right here expecting us
to be searching the country for him.
1674
01:25:12,636 --> 01:25:14,327
We heard about an hour ago
that the police
1675
01:25:14,377 --> 01:25:17,975
were down at his place in Malibu
looking for him for Gizzi's murder.
1676
01:25:18,328 --> 01:25:21,743
Operator, will you get me
the L.A. police department.
1677
01:25:22,672 --> 01:25:26,509
I want to talk to Lieutenant Pete Wright
of the gangster squad.
1678
01:25:38,899 --> 01:25:41,662
Guatemala here we come. Nothing in the
papers about us. We're in the clear.
1679
01:25:42,216 --> 01:25:43,763
How are you darling? You still love me?
1680
01:25:43,796 --> 01:25:45,961
I'll love you more in Guatemala.
-That's my girl.
1681
01:25:45,981 --> 01:25:46,700
Come on, Chippie.
1682
01:25:46,750 --> 01:25:48,750
We got to go to Las Vegas
to get the check cashed.
1683
01:25:50,291 --> 01:25:51,976
That's kind of taking chances, ain't it?
1684
01:25:52,009 --> 01:25:53,846
Not like trying to cash it
in another town
1685
01:25:53,869 --> 01:25:55,123
and waiting for the check to clear.
1686
01:25:55,156 --> 01:25:58,133
You get a cab out of here and go
straight to the bank in Las Vegas
1687
01:25:58,162 --> 01:25:59,752
and keep the cab waiting, see?
-Sure.
1688
01:25:59,802 --> 01:26:00,920
All right, come on. Let's get going.
1689
01:26:01,298 --> 01:26:02,868
Come on, come on.
1690
01:26:14,144 --> 01:26:15,898
A hundred thousand dollars.
1691
01:26:16,398 --> 01:26:18,398
Where's the rest of it, Evans?
1692
01:26:19,252 --> 01:26:20,569
I don't know.
1693
01:26:31,795 --> 01:26:32,958
Boulder Inn.
1694
01:26:33,795 --> 01:26:35,458
So that's where our little boyfriend is.
1695
01:26:36,247 --> 01:26:37,246
Isn't it?
1696
01:26:37,296 --> 01:26:39,086
Stop it! You know I can't stand that.
1697
01:26:40,727 --> 01:26:42,024
Besides that's...
1698
01:26:42,395 --> 01:26:43,951
Peterson's department.
1699
01:26:44,001 --> 01:26:45,431
I told you I don't know anything.
1700
01:26:45,931 --> 01:26:47,931
He's at the inn all right.
1701
01:26:47,993 --> 01:26:48,925
Should we get him?
1702
01:26:49,041 --> 01:26:51,041
No, let him stay there for now.
1703
01:26:51,130 --> 01:26:52,756
Our friends the police are out.
1704
01:26:52,919 --> 01:26:54,370
What are you going to do with me?
1705
01:26:55,957 --> 01:26:59,337
Evans, I admire loyalty
but not to the wrong people.
1706
01:26:59,654 --> 01:27:01,654
You will go with Peterson, please.
1707
01:27:14,150 --> 01:27:16,812
You better get down to the airport.
You'll miss Lieutenant Wright.
1708
01:27:16,862 --> 01:27:18,616
You're the one who called him.
He'll be expecting you.
1709
01:27:18,961 --> 01:27:20,113
A policeman?
1710
01:27:20,613 --> 01:27:22,182
I wouldn't be bothered.
1711
01:27:22,983 --> 01:27:25,654
You take care of it.
I'll join you later.
1712
01:27:35,144 --> 01:27:36,126
Hi, Pete.
1713
01:27:36,181 --> 01:27:38,364
What's that you called me?
-He meant Mr. Rush.
1714
01:27:38,406 --> 01:27:39,330
That's better.
1715
01:27:39,364 --> 01:27:40,174
Where's Stevens?
1716
01:27:40,199 --> 01:27:42,997
You know how it is. He doesn't like to
get involved in anything unpleasant.
1717
01:27:43,031 --> 01:27:45,786
Oh, sure. He wants to keep
his lily white hands clean.
1718
01:27:45,815 --> 01:27:46,955
Sheriff Steele.
1719
01:27:46,987 --> 01:27:48,739
Howdy, sheriff. Always glad to
help an officer.
1720
01:27:48,789 --> 01:27:50,450
Why don't you stop marching?
1721
01:27:50,767 --> 01:27:52,088
And get this through your head.
1722
01:27:52,144 --> 01:27:54,943
The only reason I'm here cleaning up
your dirty laundry
1723
01:27:54,981 --> 01:27:56,568
is because we want Granger badly.
1724
01:27:56,618 --> 01:27:58,618
There's no reason for that attitude.
1725
01:27:58,753 --> 01:28:01,824
My attitude toward you
is one of complete disgust.
1726
01:28:01,861 --> 01:28:04,905
We're clean. Our wire service
is perfectly legitimate.
1727
01:28:04,941 --> 01:28:06,941
So are your banks and music businesses.
1728
01:28:06,991 --> 01:28:08,542
But what about all your sidelines?
1729
01:28:08,587 --> 01:28:09,765
You want me to go into them?
1730
01:28:09,796 --> 01:28:12,407
What's that got to do with Granger? You
came up here to get him, didn't you?
1731
01:28:12,457 --> 01:28:14,457
Sure. But someday,
we're going to get all of you.
1732
01:28:14,848 --> 01:28:17,112
When the public gets wise
to your stinking mess.
1733
01:28:17,329 --> 01:28:18,624
Now where's Granger?
1734
01:28:24,421 --> 01:28:25,727
Boulder Inn.
1735
01:28:25,816 --> 01:28:27,816
We can be there in about
35 minutes. I've got a car waiting.
1736
01:28:36,313 --> 01:28:37,974
Well, that settles Granger.
1737
01:28:38,474 --> 01:28:40,474
I think we handled things very well.
1738
01:28:40,810 --> 01:28:42,810
My bags here?
-Got them checked.
1739
01:28:42,872 --> 01:28:43,860
Good.
1740
01:28:44,177 --> 01:28:46,706
Steve, I'm putting you
in charge out here.
1741
01:28:47,535 --> 01:28:51,578
I promised my children I'd go back east
on the farm with them for a while.
1742
01:28:52,078 --> 01:28:55,538
Anything important I can be reached
through the usual source.
1743
01:29:06,081 --> 01:29:07,351
Mal?
1744
01:29:09,148 --> 01:29:10,801
Something's happened to Chippie.
1745
01:29:25,361 --> 01:29:27,392
I think we better go find him.
1746
01:29:33,529 --> 01:29:35,431
The inn's about ten miles from here.
1747
01:29:35,693 --> 01:29:37,031
Not far from the dam.
1748
01:30:03,594 --> 01:30:05,352
That's Granger. Turn around.
1749
01:30:05,578 --> 01:30:06,985
Must be Wright.
1750
01:30:11,138 --> 01:30:13,121
He's turning around.
1751
01:30:16,105 --> 01:30:18,105
We better head for Boulder Dam.
1752
01:30:24,860 --> 01:30:26,860
Once we're across the dam,
we're in Arizona.
1753
01:30:26,922 --> 01:30:28,602
We'll never make it into Vegas now.
1754
01:30:34,111 --> 01:30:37,308
Car number 1 calling government
rangers at Boulder Dam.
1755
01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:39,197
Green Cadillac convertible
1756
01:30:39,241 --> 01:30:41,590
California license number, 9 Young 8
1757
01:30:41,606 --> 01:30:43,606
9 Young 8 014
1758
01:30:43,656 --> 01:30:45,986
014 headed toward dam.
1759
01:30:46,078 --> 01:30:48,910
This man wanted for murder.
Throw up roadblock. Over.
1760
01:31:19,407 --> 01:31:22,606
Kelly, Bates you handle the other side.
Get him if he tries to come over.
1761
01:31:22,656 --> 01:31:24,656
OK Hey what's the matter? It's a holdup.
1762
01:31:26,526 --> 01:31:28,526
Mal, it's too late.
They've blocked it off.
1763
01:31:34,959 --> 01:31:37,008
It's never too late, darling, come on.
1764
01:32:00,704 --> 01:32:05,861
The next tour of the dam
will leave in five minutes.
1765
01:32:29,600 --> 01:32:32,614
The next tour of the dam
1766
01:32:32,932 --> 01:32:35,600
will leave immediately.
1767
01:32:40,337 --> 01:32:42,726
No smoking on the elevator.
1768
01:32:50,130 --> 01:32:51,630
Wright, L.A. police.
1769
01:32:51,719 --> 01:32:53,206
Their car's parked up there.
1770
01:32:53,277 --> 01:32:55,020
Did you see anyone
who fits his description?
1771
01:32:55,073 --> 01:32:56,516
No, I didn't see them.
1772
01:32:56,815 --> 01:32:58,815
The only way he could have got through
is in the crowd.
1773
01:32:58,913 --> 01:33:00,913
Want to come with us, captain,
we'll check the other end,.
1774
01:33:07,747 --> 01:33:11,786
We're now descending
in the elevator 528 feet.
1775
01:33:12,286 --> 01:33:17,916
One tenth of a mile or equal to the
height of a 44 story office building.
1776
01:33:18,416 --> 01:33:20,416
As we step from the elevator,
1777
01:33:20,605 --> 01:33:24,897
We still have 199 feet of it
down below us.
1778
01:33:29,372 --> 01:33:31,062
Kelly, have you seen Granger
and the girl?
1779
01:33:31,109 --> 01:33:32,504
Nope, no one's got through here.
1780
01:33:32,554 --> 01:33:34,554
They must have ducked into the dam.
-Let's check.
1781
01:33:37,644 --> 01:33:39,644
Right this way, please.
1782
01:33:39,907 --> 01:33:42,144
Follow me. Watch your step.
1783
01:33:50,949 --> 01:33:52,779
At this point,
1784
01:33:52,941 --> 01:33:55,700
we're now standing
in a portion of the dam
1785
01:33:56,036 --> 01:33:58,680
that's 457 feet thick.
1786
01:33:59,618 --> 01:34:01,618
It's 107 feet
1787
01:34:02,118 --> 01:34:05,194
upstream through solid concrete
1788
01:34:05,292 --> 01:34:06,952
to the water in Lake Mead.
1789
01:34:07,151 --> 01:34:10,887
We're going to walk downstream
through the thickness of the dam,
1790
01:34:11,232 --> 01:34:14,377
350 feet to the Nevada wing
of the power plant.
1791
01:34:14,468 --> 01:34:16,468
Watch your step, please.
1792
01:34:16,518 --> 01:34:17,640
Follow me.
1793
01:34:20,462 --> 01:34:22,010
How long ago did the last tour come out?
1794
01:34:22,048 --> 01:34:24,377
About 5 minutes ago. They should be
coming out the other end now.
1795
01:34:24,427 --> 01:34:25,718
Let us use your binoculars.
1796
01:34:32,844 --> 01:34:37,738
You are now standing in the
Nevada wing of the power plant.
1797
01:34:38,238 --> 01:34:43,878
Ahead are seven hydroelectric generators
1798
01:34:43,958 --> 01:34:46,676
each one with a turbine capacity
1799
01:34:46,747 --> 01:34:49,639
115,000 horse power.
1800
01:34:49,728 --> 01:34:53,648
Don't worry, we'll get out of here as
soon as we get over to the Arizona side.
1801
01:34:53,737 --> 01:34:56,612
Now, right this way, please.
1802
01:34:56,719 --> 01:34:58,719
Follow me.
1803
01:35:25,263 --> 01:35:30,520
Where we're now standing, folks, it's 560 feet
up to the top of the dam,
1804
01:35:30,600 --> 01:35:34,625
The elevator shaft we came down
is to the left
1805
01:35:34,741 --> 01:35:37,602
of the large awning you see
at the top of the duct.
1806
01:35:37,671 --> 01:35:39,738
Can I borrow your glasses a minute?
-Sure.
1807
01:35:45,237 --> 01:35:47,765
Thanks.
1808
01:35:47,938 --> 01:35:50,265
Maybe you're right.
We better lose this crowd.
1809
01:35:52,564 --> 01:35:54,089
There he is, come on.
1810
01:36:00,119 --> 01:36:02,028
What do we do now?
1811
01:36:02,208 --> 01:36:05,291
If we can climb the Arizona elevators
ahead of that crowd, we've got a chance.
1812
01:36:38,521 --> 01:36:40,167
Come on. This way.
1813
01:36:56,005 --> 01:36:58,250
I can't go any further, Mal,
I just can't.
1814
01:36:58,303 --> 01:36:59,269
You've got to.
1815
01:36:59,449 --> 01:37:00,454
Come on.
1816
01:37:17,226 --> 01:37:18,587
Gail, listen to me.
1817
01:37:18,760 --> 01:37:20,069
You wait back there for me.
1818
01:37:20,119 --> 01:37:21,575
I'll shake them off and come back
for you.
1819
01:37:22,358 --> 01:37:23,512
Yes.
1820
01:38:08,047 --> 01:38:10,590
Take her up to my car.
We'll keep after him.
1821
01:39:32,030 --> 01:39:34,668
He must have taken
the Nevada inspection stairway.
1822
01:39:43,664 --> 01:39:45,807
We can take the elevator
and catch him at the top.
1823
01:40:41,444 --> 01:40:43,631
Granger, hold it!
1824
01:41:08,540 --> 01:41:09,712
Oh, Mal.
1825
01:41:12,528 --> 01:41:14,720
Give me two to win
on Honeycomb in the fifth.
1826
01:41:14,770 --> 01:41:17,233
Only an innocent two dollar bet,
you say?
1827
01:41:17,313 --> 01:41:20,409
It's just as innocent as the germs
in an epidemic.
1828
01:41:20,626 --> 01:41:22,626
Spreading the worst kind of disease.
1829
01:41:22,879 --> 01:41:26,420
The civic disease of criminals
with an $8 billion racket.
1830
01:41:26,886 --> 01:41:28,565
Corrupting politicians,
1831
01:41:28,615 --> 01:41:29,853
buying protection,
1832
01:41:30,353 --> 01:41:33,303
fostering crime,
all with your two dollars.
