Original subtitles

(dramatic music)

(trumpeting music)

- 10,000, all in.

- 10,000 to you.

- [Burns] I'm forced to see you.

- I guess I win.

- [Ilse] Full house, aces high.

- I guess you lose, Mr. Vaughan.

(dramatic music)

Ilse.

- No wait a minute Burns, come on.

- You know the house rules, Mr. Vaughan.

We explained them very carefully.

- [Ilse] Two guns.

Both are loaded.

One with real bullets and the other one with blanks.

- The odds are absolutely even.

- We spin the table and when it stops

you pickup the gun nearest you and fire.

(dramatic music)

(gun banging)

(thudding)

- I'm afraid, Mr. Vaughan...

you lose again.

- No, please Burns, please Burns

Don't, Burns, no.

(gun banging) (dramatic music)

- If there's one thing I can't stand,

it's a bad loser.

There's one thing you love, it's a winner, hey honeybunch?

A winner.

(dramatic music)

(muffled chatter)

(speaking foreign language)

- [Man] 850.

(speaking foreign language)

- I'll stay.

(speaking foreign language)

One more time, please.

- I'm sorry, Monsieur, the house limit is--

- One more time.

- Very well, Monsieur.

(speaking foreign language)

- Can't win 'em all.

- You like to gamble.

- Well, it's my hobby on my business.

- And your pleasure?

- Sometimes.

- You gamble well because you know how to lose.

- I learned the hard way.

- I too like to gamble.

There're many games of chance, many venues.

Here, the Rivera, my room.

- Well you certainly have the advantage,

you have a stacked deck.

- I like you Mr.--

- Vallance, my friends call me Eddie.

- Eddie. - Yes.

- Yes, I like you. - Good.

- You'll fit well into the ambiance of my room.

- Your, I don't remember saying yes to that.

- I bet you.

- That's the second time I've lost tonight.

- Do fix me a drink please.

Vodka martini, very dry.

- Vodka martini very dry, coming up.

(whistling)

You know, it's a good thing I didn't pick up

that big bundle tonight.

- [Ilse] Why?

- Well when a winner gets invited

to a lady's room he liable to end up minus is wallet.

- [Ilse] If you would've won, you would've refused me?

- You're catching on.

- [Ilse] I bet you wouldn't.

- I wish...

I wish you wouldn't keep betting on sure things.

It erodes my confidence.

Very, very dry.

- Thank you.

I could say your health cheers or something.

But I think the traditional gamblers toast, luck.

- Luck. (clinking)

Why me?

(light music) - You're handsome.

- Come on now, I'm not gonna buy that.

- You're right.

If you were the ugliest man in the world,

it wouldn't have mattered because you are a gambler,

a good gambler, and that excites me.

But luckily, you're not the ugliest man in the world.

Some of them are.

- Some of them?

You haven't touched your drink.

- Of course not.

The vodka was drugged.

They all were.

(dramatic music)

Careful, don't harass him.

He's nice, very nice.

He deserves a kiss.

(lawn mower rumbling)

(keys jingling)

- Good morning, sir.

- [Eddie] Good morning.

- [Winters] Just a jug of ice water.

- [Pursell] Right away.

- Mr. Burns won't leave the garden until after lunch,

so it's all right for you to start the service on it.

Good morning, sir.

And don't forget that after tomorrow,

he'll probably have the Fosters over.

Probably want you to pick them up.

- Right.

(dramatic music)

- Hello.

Hope you slept well. - Slept?

- The pool is perfect this morning.

Just run, nice sharp edge to the temperature.

- [Eddie] Now wait a minute.

- See you for lunch.

(sighs)

(lawn mower rumbling)

- Good morning, sir.

Not too pleasant today, is it.

However, the forecast is sun.

You're welcome to go wherever you want on the grounds, sir.

The pool's at the back if you care for a swim.

I can get you some trunks if you want.

- Pool, did you say?

Look, where I am?

- It's Mr. Burns residence, sir.

- Listen, I was drugged, I was--

- You certainly slept very soundly, sir.

- Burns?

- Walter Burns.

- Well you tell Mr. Burns, thanks but no thanks.

- Stroll wherever you want

on the grounds sir, but not outside.

- Who says?

- Mr. Burns said.

- Who is Mr. Burns?

- Probably one of the 10 richest men in the world, sir.

No, five richest

- You mean I can walk around the grounds,

but not leave them, right?

- That's correct sir.

- Is that a road over there?

- Yes sir.

- So if I take off I can be outa here

in a couple of minutes?

- I wouldn't bet on it sir.

Although I am a gambling man myself,

if you care to have a flutter

I'll give you 10 to one against.

- Who's going to stop me, you?

- No sir.

He is.

- Good morning, sir.

- He won't kill you of course sir.

Probably a leg wound, just enough to disable you.

We're not allowed to kill you, sir.

(dramatic music)

- I don't know if the color is to your liking sir,

but it should certainly fit perfectly.

Yes, well, what you're wearing is correct of course

for the evening games, but I thought you might

like something more casual during the day.

If you care to give me your jacket later, sir,

I'll uh, refurbish it for you.

- Who are you?

- My name is Winters, sir.

- Winters, how did I get here?

- I think we both know that sir.

- All right, then why?

- You are an honored guest of Mr. Burns, sir.

- I never met anyone called Burns.

- But you will sir, you can bet on it.

- And I'm not a guest around here, I'm a prisoner.

- You will have the whole round

of the house and grounds, sir.

- But not outside the grounds.

- You'll find it very pleasant here sir.

Everything you may want.

No need to go outside.

- When do I get to meet Burns?

Hm, I am gonna meet him eventually.

- It's on the cards, yes.

- [Eddie] What kind of a man is he anyway?

- He's a gambling man, sir.

- How long have you worked for him?

- I don't work for him, sir.

Not exactly.

I was a gambling man myself once.

- And?

- Came across Mr. Burns and he won me.

- He?

- Come on, we'll be late for lunch.

(dramatic music)

(dice clicking)

- Eddie.

Eddie, what a pleasure.

Come in, come in.

Hey, you don't mind if I cal you Eddie, do ya?

If you prefer Mr. Vallance then Mr. Vallance it shall be.

But I think Eddie is much friendlier, don't you?

Ah, you can call me Wally if you want or Mr. Burns,

but most around here refer to me as Daddy.

Nice, solid sound to it.

I'm glad you could come, Eddie.

- Did I have an option?

- The drugged drink?

Just a little bit of gamesmanship, Eddie.

That's the way to win, isn't it?

Establish an ascendancy and hold onto it.

Now you're not gonna hold any hard feelings

about that, are you?

- No, of course not.

But I do resent your marksman waiting

to shoot holes in my legs.

- Ilse, you were right.

She's always right, infallible.

You and me are gonna get along fine, Eddie.

Oh, sit down.

Ah, sit down, sit down.

It's avocado and cold lobster, but if there's anything

different you want, all you have to do is ask.

- You want a drink, Eddie.

From a bottle with an unbroken seal.

- Vodka on the rocks.

- Ah, that's it Eddie.

I don't drink myself.

At least when it's not before a game.

Gotta keep the brain cells clear.

You like to roll some dice before we eat?

- No thanks.

- Hm, well, later.

Then I thought maybe a little backgammon.

You do play backgammon, don't ya?

- [Eddie] Some, yes.

- Ilse tells me you have a cool nerve at the roulette table.

Is that your main game?

- No.

- [Burns] A card man?

- Poker.

- Stud or draw?

- [Eddie] Stud.

(chuckling)

- You have surpassed yourself my Dear Ilse.

Stud's my game, Eddie.

My favorite game.

I'm the best stud player in the world.

- I doubt that, Mr. Burns.

- You thinking of Tommy Vaughan?

- I was thinking of me.

(laughing)

- We'll have to put that to the test, Eddie.

- Yeah, we will, but later.

First I thought a little dice,

then maybe some backgammon or shimmy.

I like to build to the real thing.

Anticipate the big game.

- Maybe there won't be any big game.

Maybe there won't be any game at all.

You went to a lot of trouble to get me out here.

Why not just send me an invitation?

- We weren't sure you'd come.

- We wanted you to come, Eddie.

(dramatic music)

(gun banging)

Henry got himself a rabbit.

Overrun with 'em.

(dramatic music)

We'll set the stakes at 100 as a starter,

until you can feel your way.

- That's where you made your first mistake.

Picking me up the way you did, I don't have much cash on me.

- It doesn't matter.

My method of inviting you here was unconventional,

I'll agree, but I'm prepared to pay

for the pleasure of playing against you, Eddie.

Payment in advance.

That'll be your stake money.

- [Eddie] Must be 30 or $40,000 there.

- 50,000.

I prefer to play with American dollars.

I always feel that as Italian is to opera,

the dollar is to gambling, an international language.

- 50,000 huh?

- Don't worry, I'll bet you I'll win it all back from you.

- And he's never lost a bet yet.

No more bets.

25 red.

- Not running for you, Eddie.

- It isn't my money.

This can't mean anything to you,

winning your own money back.

- It was your money.

I paid you, remember?

- No more bets.

- Anyway the intrinsic fact of money is not so vital.

Just winning.

22 black.

Daddy.

- Hm, yeah I guess you're right.

It's late.

Must all be tired.

Besides, I don't wanna clean you out right away.

Spoil tomorrow's games.

- Ah, come on, Burns, be a sport?

One more time.

5,000.

You didn't formally close the game down, did you?

Hm?

- All right.

- 26 black.

(sighs)

- You're right, it is getting late.

You can't win 'em all Mr. Burns,

but make sure you win the last one.

Good night.

(thudding)

- Daddy, don't be so foolish.

He's just the opposition we've been looking for.

- You were the rabbit?

I heard the shot.

Tried to make a run for it, huh Winters?

You chose the wrong time.

Night's the best time when there are plenty of shadows.

- And the dogs.

- Dogs?

What dogs?

(barking)

- Doberman Pinschers, sir.

Trained to kill.

Nobody, not even Mr. Burns would go out there at night.

- I don't blame him.

There are other ways.

- I bet you--

- Yeah, I know, I know, you'll bet I don't make it.

But getting out of here isn't like a hand of cards, Winters.

Chance operates there, the unknown.

Here it's a game of skill.

A little luck comes into it maybe,

but mostly it's planning and knowing

the hazards and how to beat them.

- Take me with you, sir.

I know all there is to know about this place.

- Yeah, I'm sure.

I'll let you know, huh.

- Thank you, sir.

Good night, sir.

- [Eddie] Good night.

- [Winters] Good night, madam.

- Well, I'm not exactly dressed for receiving tonight.

- Oh, but you are.

- I thought you liked big gamblers.

- Winners, only winners.

And the biggest winner around here is Daddy Burns.

- [Eddie] So far.

- That's right.

Absolutely right.

Good night.

Sleep well.

- Sleep well.

(splashing)

(clapping)

Hey, that's not bad.

- Not bad?

You can do it better I suppose.

- Naturally.

I imagine I could swim this pool

five or six times underwater.

- I bet you.

- Yeah, what do you wanna bet?

- Something nice.

- Hm, promises, promises.

- Okay, something nice you said.

- Some people say the nicest thing about me is my smile.

- You don't say.

- Ah!

- Eddie. (groaning)

How long do you think you could stay underwater?

- I don't know, couple of minutes I guess.

- Suppose there was 10,000 riding on it.

- Well that might increase my lung power, yes.

- Tell you, Pursell here, he doesn't have your physique,

but I'll bet you that 10,000 he can stay under longer.

- Okay.

- All right.

You stay that side Eddie.

- Mr. Burns, I don't think I--

- Trust me, trust me.

- But Mr. Burns I can't--

(splashing)

(coughing)

- Ready, go.

(dramatic music)

You owe me 10,000.

(gasping)

- I told you he's a winner.

- Well I guess that little win

at the pool makes us even again, eh?

You took me on on the wheel last night,

I took you at the pool.

We're even.

- Not quite, I scored.

- You scored?

What do you mean?

- I mean I won some valuable information about you.

Always check out the house rules first.

- Rules, just part of the game.

It's luck that counts.

- [Eddie] To amateurs, yeah.

- Huh?

- Well you gamble for fun, with me it's a business.

I don't disbelieve in luck, but I don't rely on it.

- What do you rely on?

- My own skill, knowledge of my opponent, observation.

- Ha, observation.

- I tell you what Mr. Burns, I will bet you $10,000

that you don't know what kind of shoes you're wearing.

Come on now, you're the big gambler.

10 grand, what kind of shoes?

- Suede Polo boots.

- No, wrong.

Brown leather lace up with a wedged heel.

I just won my 10 grand back.

- Hey, wait a minute.

These are black.

- Oh and another thing, if you're gonna bluff,

bluff with conviction.

(dramatic music)

(chuckling)

(whistling)

- I thought you might need a sandwich sir,

as you missed most of lunch.

That was superb sir, but dangerous.

You beat him.

He can't bear to lose

- Everybody loses sometimes, Winters.

- He can't lose.

Don't you understand?

He's psychologically incapable of losing.

If we are going to escape, it ought to be tomorrow morning.

They pin the dogs soon after 7:00.

It has to be tomorrow.

- Has to be? - Yes.

Tonight it'll be shimmy or backgammon.

But tomorrow it'll be poker, stud poker.

He never loses at that.

- Well maybe he hasn't had any stiff competition.

- Tommy Vaughan.

- Tommy Vaughan?

Did he play here?

Come on, Winters, did he play here?

- Yes, sir.

I must ask you to forget that I said anything.

- That was smart just now Eddie.

Smart.

I enjoyed it.

- Well if you enjoy losing $10,000,

I can provide you pleasures for the rest of your life.

- No, it's not the money, it's the challenge.

Your the nearest I've ever come to my style.

Oh I like to gamble, Eddie, can't live without it.

Roll of the dice,

turn of a card, that attacks my adrenaline.

That's when I know I'm alive.

I almost lost that feeling though.

It was terrible.

Like losing your lust for a pretty woman.

Like being dead.

Happened when I was 29.

My father struck oil.

Oh up to then the money was important, necessary,

but suddenly I had so much money.

That's when gambling lost that tang.

I was like a heavyweight champion who could never lose.

A hunter impervious to the lion.

A hunter who had run out of game to hunt.

Ah, it's not the money.

It's the challenge.

Finding someone I can pit myself against.

Someone good and cunning.

Someone like me.

Someone like--

- [Eddie] Tommy Vaughan?

- Tommy Vaughan?

- Yeah, you mentioned him at lunch yesterday.

- Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Tommy Vaughan.

- If there were Olympics for stud poker,

Tommy would take the gold medal.

- No, I would.

- Ah, you've played against him then, huh?

- No, no, I haven't had the pleasure.

But from what I hear, he wouldn't amount to

much against me.

- Oh, I don't know about that.

I know Tommy.

In fact, I'd arrange a meeting for you except

that he's dropped out of sight lately.

No one's seen or heard of him in quite some time.

- Oh, is that so?

Yeah, yeah, well you arrange that meeting

just as soon as he turns up again.

(dramatic music)

- Not now.

- What's a matter?

- Tomorrow night, after you've won.

If you win.

(dramatic music)

- How many?

- How many what, sir?

- How many are buried out there?

- Buried, sir?

- How many bodies?

- Three.

- Tell me, Vaughan's one of them, isn't he?

Isn't he Winters?

- If they find out I've told you.

- You wanna get out of her, don't you?

That's gonna be tomorrow morning

when they bring the dogs in.

(barking)

- Shut up!

- Sound ferocious, don't they?

I can assure you their bite

is probably worse than their bark.

- Card.

- Zac's the only one who can handle 'em.

Even he doesn't take any chances.

- Sniff.

- You're on a lucky streak, Eddie.

But shimmy isn't really my game.

Take a break, shall we?

- More gamesmanship?

You wanna break up my game, or my lucky streak, which?

(chuckling)

- Clumsy fool.

- I'm very sorry, sir.

- What's the matter, Winters?

Something on your mind?

- No, I'm very sorry, madam.

- Well let's play shall we?

- $1,000.

- Come on, come on.

(dogs barking)

Yeah, make it an early night.

You'll need all the sleep you can get, Eddie.

Tomorrow night we'll be playing my game.

I'm going to the kitchen for a glass of milk, good night.

- Good night, sleep well.

(dramatic music)

(dogs barking)

- [Zac] Here you go.

Shut up!

- Which way are we going?

- Through the front door.

- Front door, but Henry overlooks--

- I'll take care of Henry.

- Does that thing work?

- If it didn't I wouldn't be here.

Go down the hallway and wait for me, all right?

- [Ilse] You won't make it.

- Darling.

Where's your confidence in me?

- I'll bet you this bracelet against

$1,000 you don't make it.

- Whatever turns you on.

- I'm going to take my bath, a very long bath.

- Yeah, you do that baby.

(thudding)

(dramatic music)

Okay, turn around.

Come on.

Now walk.

Winters, let's go.

Hey, look happy.

Smile, it's a nice day.

(laughing)

- Morning, Eddie.

- Why?

- I'm very sorry, sir.

I was offered a side bet you wouldn't make it.

It must be worth at least $10,000.

I'm a betting man, sir, I couldn't turn it down.

- I forgot the best piece of advice my shrink ever gave me:

never gamble on a woman.

- You're angry with me.

- Angry?

Why would I be angry?

All you did was stop me from getting out of here.

- You are angry.

You know, Eddie, I would have been sorry to lose you.

The big game is tonight.

You lose well, don't you.

That's the first thing I said to you.

You really know how to lose.

Only I'm not so sure you know how to win.

(dramatic music)

(barking)

- [Zac] Shut up, Bruno.

- By the way, Eddie, Daddy Burns insists

on formal wear for the big game.

- Does he, now?

Well, we won't disappoint Daddy Burns, will we?

- We dine first, and then the game starts, all right?

- Yeah, fine, I don't have any plans.

- Oh, Eddie, if you do win, I um--

- Please, don't ever excite me,

I'm liable to lose my concentration.

- I hope you do win.

(dramatic music)

- I remember a play in Cairo.

It was me, a Texan and two sheiks.

The limit was 20,000, I was holding a full house.

Two queens and two aces showing and an ace in the hole.

I bluffed 'em all out except the Texan.

He had three fives and a jack.

But as it turned out, he had that other five,

four of a kind.

Took me for two million dollars that night.

- Wow.

- But, I got my revenge and my money back.

A couple of weeks he came and played me here,

I took the pants off him.

(chuckling)

- And now he's buried in the garden.

- What is this?

It's awfully sweet.

- Think so, honey?

Why don't we change it.

(snapping)

Tonight, we change everything.

You haven't been too nice to me lately, honey.

I don't like it when you're not too nice to me.

Did you know that?

I like you to be too nice to me.

- Well maybe a big win will turn the trick, huh?

- [Burns] Yeah.

- I mean, after all Ilse loves a big winner, don't you?

- Well, she's gonna love me after tonight's game.

- Or me.

At least the odds are even.

- Even.

Yup, yeah they're even.

Well, I'm ready to play poker.

How about you, mister?

You trust me, then?

- Not particularly.

- Just so you don't question the house rules.

Stud poker, cut deck, seven to ace,

high or low, no limit.

What do you think?

- I think for a poker player, you talk to much.

- Cut the deck.

(dice clicking)

- I'll open for 100.

- Kinda cautious, aren't you Eddie?

- So is Mythris.

- Mythris, where does he play?

- Crete, around 1200 B.C..

He was cautious too up front.

Ended up taking the whole island.

- You're talking about war?

- That's right.

(dogs barking)

- All right, deal.

- 500.

- You didn't look at your whole card.

- I'm feeling lucky.

What about you?

500.

600.

- Here's 600.

And up 1,000.

- 1,000 to you.

- Well, let's get some real action.

2,000.

- 2,000 to you.

- Your 2,000

and up 4,000.

- 4,000.

- Now let's see what you're really made of.

Your 4,000

and up 10,000.

- 10,000 to you.

- Getting a bit too rich for your blood, mister?

- No, this hand is just crying out to be played.

Your 10,000

and up 20.

- [Ilse] 20,000 to see.

- See?

I don't wanna see that garbage he's holding.

Well, your 20,000

and raise 20,000.

- Ah, you're killin' me Burns.

Here's 8,000 and I'll give you

my marker for the additional--

- We don't throw markers here, Vallance.

- My bank'll verify that it's good--

- No markers.

But we'll consider kind.

- Kind, what are you talking about?

All I've got is my clothes

and a watch that's probably worth--

- We've got something better than that, Vallance.

You've got you.

Come on, Vallance, you're a gambler.

Not as good as me maybe, but a gambler just the same.

Now how many times have you heard

a gambler say I'll stake my life on it?

How many times have you said it?

Hell, I musta said it 100 times myself.

- But on three occasions, he meant it.

- You have said that.

- Sure, it's a figure of speech, nobody actually means it.

- In this house it isn't.

Here, we mean it

I'll take the clothes and the watch and you as collateral.

(laughing)

- What am I worth?

- [Burns] A million dollars.

That's what you're worth to me.

- If you win, you walk away with the pot and a million.

- And if I lose?

- Then it's your life, or mine.

Another little gamble we haven't told you about yet.

- But you still get a chance.

- That's right, it's an even money bet, Vallance.

What do you say?

- You run a hell of a game, Mr. Burns.

The ultimate climax for somebody

who has so much money he can never lose.

- You got it, Vallance.

It's the only kick left.

I like to win Vallance, I always do.

But what's the thrill of winning

without the chance of losing?

You and me, what do you say?

- 20,000 and raise 20.

- I'll raise 100,000.

- 100,000 to see, that's a lot of money.

- Oh, you can afford it.

You're gambling with a million dollar stake now.

- And my life.

100,000 and raise 100,000.

- In that case I raise 200,000.

- The suspense is killing me, I'll see you for the 200,000.

(dramatic music)

(dogs barking)

- So it all comes back to Daddy.

You're cool, Eddie.

But I wonder if you'll be so cool

with the next little game I've dreamed up.

The final game.

- Two guns, both are loaded.

One with real bullets and one with blanks.

We'll spin the table and you pick up

the gun nearest you and fire.

- [Burns] I said it was an even chance.

It's better than even, because you get first shot.

- That's right.

And he takes the same chances you do.

The same risk.

- [Burns] Those are the house rules, Vallance.

So simple, there can't be any question now can there?

- I like examining the deck before I play.

- This is gonna be good.

The others usually panic.

- Like Tommy Vaughan?

Steel nerves at a poker table

but any hint of violence and Tommy broke up.

- Broke up?

He cowered, begged.

- I won't give you the same pleasure.

- No, I don't think you will.

(gun banging)

(dramatic music)

No, I guess you won't beg.

(gun banging)

(groaning)

- Go ahead, Wally, it's your turn to fire.

Come one, it's your shot.

- Well, go on.

You can still win.

- No, no, no, he won't pull the trigger.

Then they'd know.

They'd know that Daddy Burns,

the world's greatest gambler is a cheat.

That's right.

Both guns are loaded with blanks.

The real ones are just tricked up to look real,

but anybody that's familiar with guns can tell

from the weight that they're just blanks.

Blanks that make a nice big noise to cover Zac here

when he shoots him from behind with this.

- That isn't true.

It isn't true.

Tell him it isn't true.

Deny it.

Show him, show him.

(gun banging)

You cheat.

Cheat (gun banging).

Cheat (gun banging)

(thudding)

- That's not all he cheats at.

- I've had you psyched out since our second game.

(thudding)

Your life against mine, Burns, come on.

Your life against Tommy Vaughans.

- Who are you?

- Eddie Vallance, professional gambler.

I'm also a patient man.

Patience is a good virtue for gamblers to have.

It's also good for a detective.

- Detective?

- And you didn't pick me up sweetheart,

I've been on to you for weeks.

That's right, I found you.

I'll collect the fee from Vaughan's estate,

but that doesn't matter.

Tommy happened to be a damn good friend of mine.

He played sweet stud, met his debts

and never cheated his entire life.

(dramatic music)

- I'm gonna kill you, Vallance.

- You don't have the nerve.

(thudding)

Besides, you're running out of friends.

Zac maybe, but the others are seeing something

in you they didn't know existed before.

- They'll do as I say.

They'll kill you because the price on you still stands.

One million dollars.

Who's gonna pass that up eh?

A million dollars.

Why they'll tear you limb from limb

to get a piece of the action.

- I'm sorry, Mr. Burns, but you're too late.

You don't think I played this game single handed, do you?

Without an ace in the hole?

Hm?

Get your clown off me and I'll show you what I mean.

- All right.

(dogs barking)

- Everything that's been said here

tonight has been overheard, recorded.

- Come on.

- After he produced that gun we went through

everything with a fine toothed comb.

- Yeah, that's right,

this is just come cheap plastic toy he's tricked up.

This is no transmitter.

- Isn't it?

- You're bluffing.

- Well then call me.

A pick up car is less than a half a mile away.

A direct line to the police.

Now Burns, they're gonna put you away.

This is one scene you're not gonna buy your way out of.

They're gonna put you away behind bars because

any minute now the police are gonna come right--

- Stay where you are.

You are bluffing.

- Are you sure?

- I don't hear any sirens.

- Sirens, to tip you off?

No, Burns, the police aren't going to do that.

They're gonna surround your grounds, break in,

and probably shoot you down without warning.

- You're bluffing.

He's bluffing.

I'm sure you're right Mr. Burns,

but if not, we don't have much time.

- I tell you he's bluffing.

I'm a gambling man, I always win.

- Only this time you'll have to play it

straight without cheating.

- I tell you he's bluffing.

There's nobody out there.

Nobody.

All right, I'll prove it to you.

- Mr. Burns, the dogs, the dogs.

(dogs barking)

- I suddenly got devalued.

I'm not worth a million dollars anymore.

- So you were bluffing.

- And you my love, are an accessory to murder.

You'll probably get at least 10 years.

- You think so?

Me, in an all mail jewelry?

You wanna bet?
