"Now let's pretend you are a sixteen-year-old girl and this is your first time in Chicago." "What would you most like to see on your first evening?" "How about La Bohème?" "You have to give opera more than one chance." "That was the Yukon Light Opera and I thought they did their very best under extraordinarily difficult circumstances" "In fact, it's a miracle that poor woman was able to sing at all... after having been dragged out of that snowdrift" "Oh, now here's an idea: a modern dress production of Gilbert and Sullivan's Ivanhoe!" "No, you're right" "And she is sixteen" "I mean, perhaps I'm being a bit conservative" "Mind you, she's the daughter of a very important Canadian trade diplomat" "I can hardly invite her to a sock hop" "I've got the museums and galleries sheduled for tomorrow" "I just have to find something she would enjoy doing tonight" "Oh look the Bee Gees are reuniting" "You know, I don't even know why I bother talking to you when you're in these kinds of moods" "May I be frank?" "I only started talking with you on the ice floe out of sheer boredom" "Now you've got an opinion on virtually everything" "Well, from now on, you can keep your opinions to yourself" "Oh." "How do I look?" "Well, thank you" "Hi honey, I'm home" "I had a very hard day at the office" "Guess what?" "I got the promotion" "And I'm in a mood to celebrate" "Come out, come out wherever you a..." "Think you can treat me like that, Eddie?" "Hmm?" "You make me wait here all day and you think you can walk in and talk to me like that?" "Well, think again, jerk." "Who called it in?" "One of the broken nose guys in the bar found him when he came out to get his car." "Do we have cause of death?" "Judging from the hole in his back I'm ruling out asphyxiation." "All right, they all tell the same story" "They were playing cards, Frankie was up" "He stepped out." "He never came back" "They figured he went home a winner" "Who do we like for this?" "It's gotta be Eddie Beets." "No, Eddie's a soldier" "This took too much initiative." "Word is Eddie's been getting itchy talking Frankie down" "Money says somebody was putting big thoughts in Eddie's head" "Eddie didn't have the brains for big thoughts" "You got the list, you don't need a brain" "That list is a fairy tale." "Frankie's a very hands-on kind of guy" "He kept a very meticulous record of every distributor and dealer he ever knew" "You own Frankie's list, you own the entire west side" "We checked the body." "There is no list" "All right, everybody's on this" "Aw, come on!" "I don't want to work with Screwy and Louie" "Half the city is up for grabs right now." "Nobody sleeps" "You find me the doer and you find me the list" "Vecchio..." "Fraser, I'm sorta busy right now" "Are you otherwise occupied, Detective?" "Uh, no sir" "Good" "Ready to go?" "You think we can still make it?" "Absolutely." "You sure?" "I thought the curtain was at seven" "We'll take my car." "I have a flashing light on top." "I'll sing the opening aria on the way" "This better be an emergency" "Oh, thank goodness." "Okay, I got it I don't know what's in there, I didn't look" "I know how you are about your stuff but this better be important." "I can't thank you enough, Ray" "So, what's the emergency?" "Well, I've been assigned to escort the daughter of Canada's senior trade negotiator" "The one in the green dress dancing with the doofus?" "He's the American ambassador's son" "Looks like a very painful experience" "Well, dancing with the Americans often is, Ray" "Speaking politically of course, not personally" "Yeah, right." "So what was the emergency?" "You'll never believe this, but I didn't realize that this was a formal event" "You got me off the biggest case of my career to bring you a pair of gloves?" "And I can't thank you enough, Ray" "I'm supposed to be on a stakeout right now" "I gotta tip where I can find Eddie Beets a guy suspected of offing his boss and trying to take over the entire west side and I'm delivering formal accessories?" "Well, if it wasn't urgently important I wouldn't have called you" "You'll never know how much this means to me, Ray" "You're right, I won't" "Uh-oh." "I know that look." "This guy's going to want to see my ticket." "I'm out of here" "Thanks Ray." "Oh, uh, Ray, could you... um..." "I gotta find new friends" "Your boss at the consulate said I couldn't miss you." "He was right" "Constable Fraser, sir, pleased to meet you" "Pleased to meet you" "Well, it shouldn't be too tough an assignment, eh Constable?" "I'll take good care of your daughter, sir" "I wish I had more time to take her around myself." "Her mother used to take care of her on these trips" "It's been two years, I still haven't gotten the hang of it." "I guess I'm not much of a substitute" "Can I get you anything?" "Oh.Thank you, no, sir." "I'm on duty" "So, are you up for it?" "Well, I've drawn up a short itinerary but it would be helpful if I have a-a better idea of her particular interests" "Oh you know, a little sight-seeing, shopping..." "I gave her some money." "If she needs more, make me a call" "Just make sure she has a good time and shows up at the ball tomorrow night" "Isn't she beautiful?" "Well, duty calls." "I have to get these Americans to sell less and buy more" "I understand, sir." "You, uh, take very good care of her." "I will." "So, you must be Chicago" "Ah." "Constable Fraser, ma'am." "And I will be your escort until tomorrow night" "Now I've given some thought to the itinerary, but not knowing your tastes..." "Well, I'm sure whatever you picked will be just fine." "I'll be right back" "Well I'll just, uh." "I'll wait right here" "She go in there?" "Yes." "So." "So" "You like...ah... her boyfriend?" "Me?" "No" "She said she didn't want to dance any more cause her boyfriend might get bent out of shape" "You seen him around here?" "Her boyfriend?" "No" "You think she was lying to me?" "The truth?" "Yeah" "Yes" "Women can be cold" "You know, when I was your age, I couldn't dance very well either" "Really?" "Really." "You like what, the valet?" "Something like that" "That's cool" "Well, thank you" "Good evening, Miss" "It's gonna be" "That was a babe" "Well yes." "Now that you mention it, she does look quite..." "She...excuse me" "Excuse me." "I-I'm sorry." "I'm just..." "I'm looking for a ...oh dear" "Excuse me." "Excuse me, sir." "Sorry" "He'll never believe it, man." "The valet's a perv!" "Well, well, well, don't we look pretty tonight?" "Thank you." "Drive" "Where do you want to go?" "What's the wildest club in town?" "The wildest club?" "No, no, no, no, no, you don't want to go there." "Yes, I do." "You're gonna love the place" "Miss Nichols?" "!" "See you, Chicago!" "I need a cab" "Do you work here?" "So, how come a pretty little thing like yourself is out all by her lonesome tonight?" "Just looking for some fun, Jerome." "Looking for some fun" "In a hurry to see the sights, are you?" "Well I can understand that" "You know this guy?" "Go away!" "Just leave me alone!" "I can't do that, you see, because I have the itinerary" "What is he, some kind of nut?" " Yes." "Go faster" "Hey I'm already going..." "Lose him!" "All right." "I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to break the speed limit." "How much?" "By as little as necessary" "How much money?" "Here" "It's red." "It's Canadian" "It's got your picture on it." "No, that's the RCMP musical ride." "It's not a good likeness at all." "Well, uh, here" "Now this guy I know" "I'm afraid there's been some kind of misunderstanding" "Why are you doing this to me?" "Because I am your escort." "Your father has entrusted you to my care" "My father doesn't give a damn about me." "Well now, that-that's not true." "As a matter of fact he gave me twenty dollars so I can take you someplace nice" "Show it to her please..." "You see?" "I don't need his money, and I don't need a babysitter" "Hey, I need his money." "Here." "All right." "We're gone now." "Hold on" "I need more, too" "Well, all I have left is Canadian" "Fine, then I'll drive thirty percent slower" "All right." "Just keep it steady." "Hold this, would you?" "Hey what-what the hell are you doing?" "Thank you!" "Would you consider discussing this over coffee?" "This man is seriously crazy!" "Go away!" "You're being a bit childish" "Childish?" "I just turned sixteen years old." "Do you know what my father gave me for my birthday?" "A porcelain doll" "How nice" "Do I look like I play with dolls?" "Huh-uh." "You look very fine" "Thank you" "You know, you really should take this up with your father, because I'm sure he'd understand that you have very valid concerns" "You want to hear my concerns, Chicago?" "Well, I'm not sure this is the most appropriate venue" "Well, I want to hear them" "Okay." "Here's one." "When do I get my own life?" "When do I get to do what I want to do?" "When do I get to stop being the perfect little princess and go...skinny-dipping?" "Public pool, coming up." "You, keep driving." "I want to go out all night and come home when the sun comes up, and I want to fall in love with somebody I just met and I want to kiss someone who's not related to me" "I could pull over right here." "Keep driving" "I want to do all these things I've never done before, and I want to do them tonight." "Well, you know there is the most fantastic exhibit at the" "Museum of Science." "You turn" "The Textile Museum?" "All right." "I'll make you a deal." "We go one place I choose." "Then I'll go back to the hotel" "Well no, I'm afraid I can't agree to that." "All right, where's the pool?" "One place and that's it?" "We got a deal, or you want to see my backstroke?" "All right, we got a deal" "Here we are." "Ohhhh dear." "Let me get that" "Man, you're one freaky red dude, you know that?" "You're gonna really fit into that place" "Ah!" "A costume party, is it?" "Well, sounds like good clean fun" "Unit five in position" "Unit four in position" "Unit two in position." "Nobody moves 'til I give the word." "There's no sign of Beets" "How can you see anything." "I can't even see the hand in front of my face." "I hope we're not wasting our time" "My source says he'll be here, he'll be here." "Yeah, the only problem is, he'll be dead by then from secondhand smoke." "Oh, yeah, that's it, light up another one!" "God forbid you should consider somebody else's lungs." "How do you put up with this guy?" "Oh great" "Good evening" "I've been bad." "I've been very bad." "Please punish me" "There's nothing so bad that it can't be forgiven, son." "Long Island Iced Tea." "Keep 'em coming" "How old are you?" "How old do I look?" "Just the right age" "Excuse me." "Bon jour, monsieur, ça va?" "Here you are" "Hello, ma'am" "Thank you" "I'm afraid there's been a mistake." "There's liquor in this." "Quite a large quantity too" "Cheers" "No, no." "I don't think so" "You're such a drag" "Would you... uh...?" "Anytime." "Ah." "Have you seen a..." "Look what you did to me!" "Look what you did to my eye!" "Not smart." "You are one stupid girl" "Tell me something." "What are you planning to do with it, huh?" "What do you want, Eddie, hmm?" "You don't take from me?" "No." "Nooo." "Nobody ever takes from me" "I'm a giver, Eddie" "Wanna borrow mine?" "No, thanks." "Thanks anyway" "Eddie!" "Get out!" "You stay away from me, you son of a bitch!" "You're dead, Janice" "You know how long you have to live?" "Start counting, honey." "Chicago!" "Come on, Janice!" "Move it!" "Something's going down" "Let's go!" "We're moving in." "You used to have such a pretty face" "Would anyone here happen to have a pair of handcuffs?" "Thank you." "Now let's get you out of here" "This is a raid!" "Nobody move!" "This is a raid!" "Excuse me." "Sorry." "Excuse me." "Sorry" "Freeze, Red, you're under arrest" "Who you got?" "Hello, Ray" "Fraser!" "Ray!" "Ray." "There's a very simple explanation for all of this" "Don't talk to me, all right?" "I don't even know you" "These aren't tight enough" "Just get in there, all right?" "Get out of my face!" "After you ma'am." "No, please, after you" "I'm beginning to reassess our relationship" "Please." "Don't." "Don't, Eddie." "Eddie!" "Where are the matches, honey?" "I dropped 'em." "Please don't" "You lied to me." "No." "You never used to lie to me" "I swear I dropped 'em." "She has 'em." "The girl." "Show me." "That one." "Her." "The little one?" "Uh-huh" "After you, ma'am." "After you, sir." "After you" "Will you get in the truck?" "!" "Just get in there, okay?" "I'm sorry, Ray." "After you." "Hello, everyone." "How are you?" "Name?" "Madame DeFarge" "D-A-F-A" "Louis!" "Name" "Marat Sade" "M-A-R-A" "You sure we haven't met somewhere before?" "I'm sure." "Because you look very familiar" "I need you to look at this picture and tell me if you saw this man at the club" "Gentlemen." "Would you join me?" "So you have no idea if Eddie Beets was even at the club" "We were working on a tip from a very reliable source, sir" "We're squeezing the patrons, sir, but most of them won't even give us their real names" "Sir, this club is a very well-known hangout for the people who run in these circles." "If there is a list, which I sincerely doubt" "and a person wanted to sell it or parlay it, this is the place they'd go" "So you're telling me these are all underworld figures we have out here?" "Well they're mostly hangers-on and wanna-bes, sir." "This was a very reliable source, sir" "Very reliable" "Look, Detective, let's say the list exists." "If Eddie Beets has it, he controls everything coming into the west side" "Now Detective Gardino, if you had just seized control of the entire west side, would your first act be to go dance in leather underwear?" "Perhaps Detective Gardino's the wrong person to ask, sir" "Did you search Beets's apartment?" "Yes, sir." "Yeah, head to toe." "There's no list" "Good." "Do it again." "What?" "Are you serious?" "And get these perverts out of my squad room" "A moment of your time, sir, of a personal nature" "If this has to do with people smoking in the men's room, I don't want to hear it" "It's a little more delicate than that, sir." "You see, I have this friend who, through unfortunate set of circumstances, happened to be in the club at the time of the raid" "And you want to bounce him." "May I ask who this friend is?" "Really?" "Ah, yes, sir" "Who's the girl with him?" "The daughter of a Canadian diplomat" "No kidding" "I'm looking for Lieutenant Welsh" "You have no idea, do you?" "You have no idea what could have happened to you" "I'm okay, Dad." "You're okay" "Then why did I leave the American commercial attaché sitting in a restaurant to come down to a police department to get you out?" "I'm surprised the damn press isn't here yet." "Excuse me, Mr. Nichols" "If I have anything to say to you, Constable, you'll hear it from your supervising officer after he hears it from his commanding officer." "And trust me, he will hear" "This is a copy of my report, sir, stating that my gross negligence endangered the security of your daughter" "You're damn right it did." "Miss Nichols just wanted to see some of the city's night life" "If I'd done my homework, I would have known that club was completely inappropriate, and I never would have taken her there" "So this was your idea." "I'm truly sorry for the anxiety this must have caused you, sir." "Caused me?" "What about her?" "My daughter is fifteen years old." "My god, man, did you see the people in there?" "I'm sixteen." "I turned sixteen 2 months ago, Daddy." " I know, sweetie, I know" "It's just that my mind has been filled with so much junk from these trade talks." "I come here." "I find you..." "I mean...what would your mother say if she saw you in these clothes?" "Can you take me back to the hotel, please?" "I'll take you." "I just have to make a phone call" "I don't even know the number." "The poor man is sitting in the restaurant" "I can take a cab." "We'll just be there for a few minutes." "I'm not a child." "I have taken a cab before." "I'll make sure that she gets home, sir." "I can trust you to do that?" "You have my word." "Okay." "You okay?" "I'll see you at the ball, all right?" "We'll talk." "Damn." "Honey, I... need my jacket" "Love you" "Make sure." "I will, sir." "Thanks a lot!" "I'm sorry?" "Why didn't you tell him it was my idea?" "Well, I-I was just trying to..." "Protect me" "I am so sick of everyone trying to protect me from living my life" "Excuse me, ma'am" "You're walking me right to my door?" "Well, I promised your father I'd see you home safely." "Ah, and I bet you always do everything you're told to do, right?" "Actually, no." "Really?" "Well, I do." "I always do everything I'm told to do." "You don't seem very happy about that" "Like I have a choice." "You know, Christina, you may not believe this, but whether you're sixteen or sixty, no one can make you do anything you don't want to do." "Ultimately, no matter what the situation, the choice is always in your hands." "You just think it isn't." "Okay, maybe you're right." "It's time I made a decision." "Here it is." "You know that ball my father really wants me to go to tomorrow night?" " Mm-hmm." "I'm not going." " Well there." "A decision." "Now." "As to tonight?" "Don't worry about it, I'm not going anywhere." "You'll be all right by yourself?" "I've been left in hotel rooms all over the world, Chicago." "It's the one thing I know how to do." "Goodnight." "I'll be finished in a wink, darling." "Oh, no trouble." "Goodnight then." " Goodnight." "Ah." "Thank you." "Goodnight, Mrs. McGuffin." "Goodnight, dearie." "Christina?" "Okay, ready." "Let's go." "Let mommy just open the door." "Hey, you see this guy's bathroom?" "He's got a marble toilet seat." "Italian marble, huh?" "For a psycho, Eddie's got good taste." "Yeah, but in the winter, isn't it a bit cold?" "Oh hello, boys." "Ain't it past your bedtime?" "There's no list, Vecchio." "You wasted my evening." "Yeah, you wasted our evening." "Well, I don't think I wasted your entire evening." "I mean, Chucky Cheese is open 'til midnight, isn't it?" "Mistake." "That was platinum." "Oh, really?" "So how much was it worth?" "About six months." "Hey, come on." "I'm his sister." "Dump it out." "Come on, empty it." "Sister, huh?" "Okay, I'm not his sister." "I'm his housekeeper." "You've done a fine job of tidying up." "Thank you." "Got a license, Hazel?" "Oh god, you know what?" "I left it in my apron." "I hate when that happens." "Get it out." "Coming up on your left, Chicago's famous Water Tower." "Built in 1869 and one of the only buildings to survive the great fire of 1871 which destroyed four square miles of Chicago killing over three hundred and leaving ninety thousand homeless... continue southwards now, towards Grant Park." "If you look quickly to your right you might catch a glimpse of the State of Illinois Center" "What are you looking for?" "The, uh..." "Tower...uh, Water?" "Oh, we just passed the..." "Tower Water." "You are from...?" "Chicago, born and raised." "Chicago is, um, my kind of town." "Do you need some help?" "Yeah." "Would you, uh...?" "Yeah!" "Oh, look!" "What is it?" "The moon." "Moon?" "Is not in book." "No, look." "Could you follow that bus, please?" "Thank you." "You want to hear something funny?" "I thought I was going to meet someone like you tonight." "Latvian?" "Yeah" "Is it so?" "Thank you for traveling with Windy City Tours." "It was uh, very nice to meet you." "I must go." "You, too." "Please continue." "Don't put those in your mouth, honey." "Where'd you get those?" "Huh?" "Christina!"
