"Here you go." "Hard way to start the day." "I was up late." " You have a date?" " I found a kitten." " Way too much information." " No, I actually found a kitten." "I was walking home." "I heard a meow." "I found this little kitten, like this big, under a car." " I couldn't find the mother." " You had to take it home." "A decent thing to do." "It's not like I'm gonna keep him." " Have a name?" " Stanley." " You named it." " No." "Yes." "Here you are." "One toasted plain, low-fat schmear." " Nova and onions." "Enjoy." " My favourite." "I never forget a name, never forget an order." "Mind like a steel trap." " Since when do you eat onions?" " I take them off." "Don't make traps like they used to." "We're around the corner." "Want us to get you something?" "Do you have a 20?" "No, we can be there in 15 minutes." " Thank you, Saul." "Keep the change." " Have a great day, Carol." "Copy that." "I'm telling you, Carol, was it?" "Onions are good for you." "For the antioxidant purposes alone." "You can kill flies with your breath." " Which is useful." " Hey." "It's an ironworker, Christopher Feeney." "Guys arriving found him." "Blunt force trauma to the head." " No weapon yet." " This guy is everywhere." "Buildings look the same." "Architecture used to have character." "I remember this area was nothing but farms and crack houses." "Hey, look, we got one of Charlie's angels." " Which one are you, sweetheart?" " The one with the big gun." "What do we got?" "Maybe an accident, a fall?" "Our vic's got a dent in his head like that." "It wasn't an accident." "Quitting time was at 4:00." "ME puts the time of death around 10 last night." "So, what was he doing here at that hour?" "Not working." "Maybe meeting someone." " What about surveillance cameras?" " Nothing yet." "At least one of the cameras was blocked by a shipment of lumber." "Yeah, Nina." "Okay." "Got the project manager, William Spence, goes by Bud." "I'll have Mike and Roe start a canvass." "Let's figure out if someone had a beef with Feeney, if he had any problems." "And what he was doing here at 10:00 at night." "Yeah, and there's that." "Chris has been with us about six months." "Good kid, gets here early, works hard." " What did you have him doing?" " Mostly post tension recently." "But Chris worked on everything:" "rigging, pre-cast." " Was he having trouble with anyone?" " Not that I know of." " How about his work record?" " Pretty spotless." "Like all the new guys, I had to keep on him about safety and stuff." "That's it." " Any idea why he was here so late?" " No idea." "Any guesses?" "I mean, we've had occasion in the past where a kid will bring a girl back to the site, you know?" "Is there really no other reason Chris was here after hours?" " I'm not sure what you mean." " You've been having security problems." "I'm hearing five theft reports in the past two months alone." "Sure, we got issues." "Just like every building site." " We talking materials?" " Anything that isn't nailed down." "Copper pipe, wire." "Last week, we lost a 2-ton skid loader." " You didn't mention this." " Chris didn't have anything..." " ...to do with that." " Why are you so sure?" "Look, I didn't know the kid that well, but he's third-generation ironworker." "His dad, Jack, worked on the Citicorp Building." "First in his family to go to college." "But he came back early after Jack took a fall." "Wound up in a wheelchair a year later." "I'm telling you, this is a good kid." "Good kid with a tough situation, personal and financial." "You're going the wrong way, guys." "The guy at the gate is getting yesterday's sign-in sheet." "It'll have the comings and goings." "Roe's doing interviews with the crew who's supposed to work today." "What time does the guy leave?" "Five." "He secures all the equipment and locks the gate up behind him." "Says he didn't see Chris hanging around." "What's up?" "Hey." "You, smart-ass guy." " What kind of wrench is that?" " A spud wrench." "Spud wrench." "All you guys carry them?" "Yeah, but some of us got bigger tools than others." "You know, some of you are bigger tools than others." "Hey." "There's nothing back here." "What am I supposed to do when this concrete locks up?" "What, are you gonna pay for it?" "Hey, you got some gloves?" "Thanks." "Manager told me this dumpster was to be hauled away this morning." "I'm guessing our killer knew that." "I'm guessing you're right." "Bud Spence, project manager, is giving us a list of personnel." "That's direct hires." "We'll need background on subcontractors, subs." "If there's so much as a taco truck that makes daily stops, I wanna know." " Got the taco truck." " Of course." "See if we get any prints off that wrench." "Excuse me." "Are you the detective in charge?" " Lt. Burns, Queens Homicide." " I'm Jay Barrett." "This is my attorney, Ron Pappas." "Where do we stand?" "Where we stand is there's been a murder." "Twenty-year-old ironworker, Christopher Feeney." " We're investigating that murder." " What is that?" "List of folks working on the site." "I'll be coordinating Barrett Group's response." "Either I or an attorney will be present for any interview with our employees." " Not necessary." " Despite what Spence told you access to records will be case-by-case." "Thank you, Bud." "I need to go to a judge every time I want information?" " No fishing expeditions." " What do you think we might catch?" "The death of any member of our team is a tragedy we take very seriously." "Since I'm convinced that no member of my employment is responsible..." " ..." "I wanna make sure I protect them." " Of course." " How long do you need?" " Forty-eight hours to process evidence." "I need longer, I can go to a judge." "Mr. Barrett?" "Where were you last night?" " Don't be a smart-ass, detective." " That's lieutenant." "Teterboro." "I was looking at a plane I might buy." "Town Car over the GW Bridge." "Dropped by the office to pick up papers." "Home by midnight." "I don't recall stopping by here to kill anyone." "I sure hope this guy's guilty." "See that pile of bricks at Citi Plaza?" "Should arrest him for that." "Let's check Barrett's alibi." "I wanna talk to the victim's parents." "When Jack had his accident we pleaded with Chris to stay in school." "He insisted on coming home to help out." " He was planning to go back?" " Yes, one year." "Jack said he'd kick him out if he had to." " Here you go." " Thank you, Sara." "Did you notice any changes in Chris recently?" " New friends?" "Keeping strange hours?" " No." "I'm sorry to ask you this, but were you aware of any problems?" " Drugs?" " My son never touched drugs." "We think Chris was at the site after 10 p.m. last night." " Now, that's late to be on the job." " I spent my life around sites." "You don't have to tell me anything." "No idea what he was doing there." "You said he was helping out." "He was sharing his pay cheque?" "I wasn't happy, but what could I do?" "We had bills." "Insurance was a joke." "You have to understand." "Our bedroom is upstairs." "Without help, we never could've built this room." "Chris paid to build this?" "From his college savings." "He had over 50,000." "After the scholarship came through, he didn't need it for tuition." " We said no at first, but" " How did he have so much money?" "Oh, he worked." "From an early age, he always had a job." "Newspaper route, grocery store." "Summers, he was a lifeguard at Jones Beach." "Oh, he loved that job." "You know how lifeguards are." "Girls were crazy about him." " Fifty thousand, that's a lot." " Chris worked hard." "You gonna ask to see pay stubs too?" "Because we could probably find some." "I'm sorry." "Chris meant everything to him." "Thank you." "Edith what was the name of the scholarship Chris got?" "The Regents Scholarship." "Full tuition, two years." "The most prestigious." "You must have been very proud." "Thank you." "Yeah, so more like 11:30?" "All right, got it." "Yeah, thanks." "Well, that developer Barrett's alibi checks out." " You seem disappointed." " Aren't you?" "Just because he didn't kill Chris doesn't mean he couldn't hire someone to do it if the kid was a threat." "Yeah, or stealing from him." "Construction site thefts are real." "Two million dollars in claims for stolen material." "Any of it recovered?" "Hard to identify copper pipe once it's in the wall." "From what I've been reading, Barrett's leveraged to his eyeballs." "He just kept building." "He's waiting for a turnaround." "Add that to divorces, those cost him." "Current wife is no bargain." "She's a regular on the charity circuit." "There's this." "This is great." "She is a supporter of the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association." "All right, so I dug around in the area of construction-related theft." "Quite a lucrative little business." "Bless you." "It looks like big scores are mostly tied to organised crime." "So Chris Feeney never received a Regents Scholarship from Georgetown." "Mostly because there isn't one." " Are you okay?" " Yeah, I'm fine." "So he lied to his parents about 50 grand." "The most he ever had in his account was $7000." "Let's say the kid's stealing." "Could've been working with these families." " He could end up dead." " Which families are we talking about?" "In this area, three names keep popping up:" "Fedorovs of Brighton Beach, Zuchettis in Brooklyn and the Cioffis." "The Cioffis?" "Thank you, Sara." " What is it?" " At the house, the Feeney house." "There was a flower arrangement with a card from the Cioffi family." " Maybe he was working for them." " Check it out." "The great man himself, Stefano Cioffi." "I'd say "ho, ho, ho" too if I beat as many murder raps as this guy." "We establish a connection between Chris Feeney and Cioffi?" "We do and we hand this off to Organised Crime." " Oh, that's no fun." " It's procedure." "You don't get in a match with Organised Crime." " I'm good in a match." " Cioffis don't mess around." " lt goes that way, we're out." " Okay, fine." " Fine?" " Fine." "If the Cioffis are involved, we'll give it to Organised Crime." " Where are you going?" " To find out if the Cioffis are involved." " Can I help you?" " Yeah, Carrie Wells, Queens Homicide." " I'm looking for Stefano Cioffi." " Sorry, Mr. Cioffi's busy right now." "Why don't you tell him it's about Chris Feeney?" "Go ahead." "Just tell him." "Right this way." "Thanks." "After you." "Okay." "Please." "Hey." "Hello." " You out of your mind?" " Let me explain." " Marco made a mistake." "He was careful." " Two seconds." "You don't look like any officer he'd seen before." "Marco's a little old-school." "My apologies." "Okay." "It's a wine cellar." "Years ago, it would've been a box..." " ...in the meadowlands." " Oh, lucky me." " I'm looking for Stefano Cioffi." " You've found him." "I go by Steve." "You're looking for the old guy, the leathery skin, heavy lids?" "That's my dad." "He's retired." " Carrie Wells, is it?" "Homicide?" " Yeah." "You said something about Chris." " You know who killed him?" " No." "I'm a little puzzled that you think I do." "Chris was working on a site." "There were thefts." " You know if he was involved?" " Theft?" "Chris?" "Not a chance." " You know this how?" " Because I've known Chris for years." "He wouldn't get involved in anything like that, never." "You know what I wanna know?" "How does the Cioffi family get so close to the son of a family of Irish ironworkers?" "Fair question." "I have a cousin, Adrianna." "It's my dad's sister's kid." "We'd go out to Jones Beach summers." "Chris was a lifeguard." "She had a crush on him." "She always swam in front of his station." "One day, she got caught in a riptide and Chris swam out." "I mean, way out and brought her back to shore." "She was in the hospital for weeks." "No one knew if she was gonna make it." "But Chris visited her every day." "It meant a lot." " You got him the job?" " Yeah." "After his father's accident." "He came back from school." "There were guys in the union, guys with seniority." "Fortunately, there are certain old relationships we still have." " You did more, didn't you?" " We helped him out with college." " To the tune of $50,000." " Something like that." "Uncle Frank, Adrianna's father, cut the cheque." "He wasn't paying two points a week, was he?" " You've seen Goodfellas too many times." " Really?" "Marty Scorsese comes in all the time." "You should swing by, I'll introduce you." "Chris' death is linked to construction thefts." "I know it's not what you do." "But one of those old relationships, they may provide us with some leads, so..." "There's a guy I grew up with, he's big in the union, Jerry Mason." " I'll give him a call." " Great." "Oh, and just so you know I'm not buying any of this." "Fair enough." "Chris Feeney was a good kid." "And I wanna get whoever did this just as much as you." " I'll see you around." " You should hope not." "Like I told Steve, I don't know nothing about no thefts." "Now, the other night we were over at the Wrought Iron, on the Avenue." "Chris had a fight with another guy." "It was over some girl." " Who?" " Some girl." "I only saw her once." "No, not the girl, Jerry." "The guy." "Who was the guy?" "It's a truck driver, Manny Armondo." "It was a hell of a fight." "Well, not physical, just, you know, real angry." " Know where I can find him?" " No." "Ask for me." "Get me a phone number, an address." " I barely know the guy." " What about the girl?" "Only reason I'm talking is Stevie C." "And I appreciate that." "Yeah." "Well, you know, he said you were..." "What?" " Cute." " Cute?" " I believe that's the word he used." " Really?" "Cute." "The girl's name, Jerry?" " I'll see what I can do." " Thank you." "Cute?" "Hey, boss." "Manny's rap sheet's long enough." "Maybe Chris caught him, Manny didn't wanna make it longer." "Look at his priors." "It's nickel-and-dime." "Joyriding, bad cheques, a fist-fight over a parking space." "Yeah, you'll love this." "A food joint caught him trying to put a roach in his food." "That's how it starts." "I don't know, feels to me like a Good Time Charlie who can't get his act together, more than a murderer." " Where are we with finding him?" " Checked his apartment." "Nothing." "He didn't show up to work." "Which in my book, just saying, is a little suspicious." " What about the girlfriend?" " Shop foreman got us a name." "Tori Guerrero, lives out in Uniondale." " You and Carrie head out there." " Good luck." " LlE this time is like a parking lot." " lt can't be as bad as what I gotta do." "Mr. Barrett?" " Lieutenant." " I'm glad I caught you." "Mrs. Barrett, I'm Lieutenant Burns." "I'm investigating the murder at your site." "I heard about that." "Isn't it awful?" "He was young." "Yes, he was." "And I wanna thank you for your generosity to the PBA." "It means a lot to us." "It's nice to know I can make a difference." "Nicole, go ahead and get started while I talk with Lt. Burns?" " Of course." "It was so nice to meet you." " Likewise." "I'm late for a board meeting, Burns." "Why the charm offensive?" "Gate guard checks workers in and out." "I'd like to see those records." "Talk to Ron Pappas." " He'll say no." "I'll go to a judge." " I can't help you." "I could go to a judge with a different request." "To keep the site closed for evidence gathering." "The judge would laugh you out of court." "But it would take a day to hear the motion." "Meantime, the interest on your construction loan would tick up, what?" "Tell me, you're the businessman." "Eighty-five thousand?" "A hundred?" "Mr. Barrett, I'm trying to solve a murder." "Work with me, please." "I'll tell Pappas." "Enjoy your board meeting." "Manny and Chris had a fight." "Wasn't about me." " Guy must have been kidding." " Why do you say that?" "Chris is out of my league." "I like him, but, come on." "Chris and Manny were buddies." "No way Manny would've done anything." "Then what was the fight about?" "Work." "Chris was always telling Manny to get serious about his career." "Sounded like maybe Manny might have screwed up." " He was afraid Chris would tell on him." " And get him fired?" "What is your relationship with Manny exactly?" "Basically, it's just kind of fun." " You know, no strings attached." " How often do you see him?" "Well, I got a kid and it's kind of a small place." "Manny will swing by on his way to work while Troy's at preschool." " Am I painting enough of a picture?" " Yeah." "Something might have happened." "I've been trying his cell phone." " He's not picking up." " Same for us." "Are you trying his 917 number?" "Because that's broken." "He's using his cousin's cell." "Here, I got the number here." " Okay." " Need me to write it down?" "No, I got it." "Okay, Roe." "Check that number and get right back to me." "Thanks." "That's what I need." "One of those no-strings-attached relationships." "I don't know about that." "My relationships?" "They get stringy fast." "Yeah, the no-strings-attached thing becomes a string itself, you know?" " I think I know what you mean." " Roe." "Okay, great." "We're on our way." "Got a ping off Manny's cell phone." "He's at the construction site." "Keep trying." "Call the phone company." "See if there's some kind of glitch." " He's not here." " It's a big site." "A big site with no Manny." "We've searched everywhere." "Okay, no Manny." "But there might be a phone." "Maybe he dropped it." "No phone either." "By the way, how'd you get to this Manny?" " Union guy." " How did you get to this union guy?" "I'm gonna just go keep looking over there." "Well, as a matter of fact, I talked to Steve Cioffi." " You talked to Stefano Cioffi?" " No, that's the dad." "I made the same mistake." "I talked to his son." "Where'd you talk to him?" "At a restaurant." "He locked me in a wine cellar." "But then he let me out." "In the interest of protecting my career I'm not gonna ask you about that." " Okay." " Lieutenant." "Thank you." "While you had a wine-tasting with the second largest crime family I got Barrett to give us access to gate records." "Hey, look." "It's one of Charlie's angels." " Now, which one are you, sweetheart?" " The one with the big gun." " There was no work done here today?" " No." "Or yesterday." "Site's closed." "Yesterday there was no concrete in this column." "Just a wooden frame." "Oh, my God." "Looks like we found Manny." "Hey." "You have any allergy medicine?" "It's, like, 40 degrees outside, what can you be allergic to?" " Do you have any or not?" " I think so." "It's just" " I got this kitten at home." "Turns out I'm allergic." "That would've been good to find out before." "Yeah, well, I really wasn't thinking about it when- l" "I found him under a car." " You rescued a kitten?" " I did." "You have levels of unmined complexity, Roe." " He's a kitten." "Let's not get too deep." " Did you name him?" "Stanley Aikins, DDS." "He reminds me of my dentist." "Every four hours." "ESU pulled him out." "It's Manny." "Had his wallet." "His phone too." "Send everything to the lab, dump the cell." " Cause of death?" " Looks like a blow to the head." "Just like Chris Feeney." "Didn't we have uniforms out there?" "There was a three-alarm out at 2:30." "Took off to help with traffic control." " Can't catch a break." " I know." " There's gotta be a connection." " Try this." "After Chris, Manny bolts." "We thought he was guilty." "But he was just scared." "Because he knew who killed Chris and/or he knew why." "You know, I met Tori Guerrero." "I don't think their fight was about her." "They leave Chris' body as a warning to Manny to shut up." "Figure we'll see it as random." "But Manny they have to hide because there'd be too many questions." "Yeah, and" " Hello?" "How did you get this number?" "Yeah, it matters to me." "Okay, fine." "I'll meet you in 15 minutes." "That was Steve Cioffi." "He wants to meet me." " Something about the case." " Great." "I'm calling Organised Crime." " I don't think he is in Organised Crime." " I'll ask the folks who know." "Go ahead." "Try a Chianti." "Hey." "Sorry for the short notice." "I didn't wanna do this over the phone." " Go ahead." " How about dinner?" "How about dinner, what?" "How about you and me have dinner?" "Really?" "Is that why you asked me to meet you here..." " ...so you could ask me out?" " That's not the only reason." " Consider it?" " lt depends on the reason." " I was thinking Saturday" " I don't need the other reason." "Okay." "Wait, wait, wait." "Okay, you may not believe me but I run a restaurant." "That's all I do." "The truth is, I still hear things." "What I hear is it might be worth your while to watch that construction site." "I just came from there." "We have cops all over that place." " It's going down tonight." " What is?" "Copper pipe." "Valuable stuff." "That's all I know." "You know, for a guy who just runs a restaurant, you know an awful lot." "I'm clean, Carrie." "You can check me out." "Okay, there may be others in my family who still dabble." "But we all cared about Chris." "Here." "It's got my number on it." "In case you change your mind." "Boss, Barrett's alibi is bogus." "You said it was golden." "Teterboro, GW, the office." "I was wrong." "Times did a piece on him." "His wives took him to the cleaners." "He's a hound dog." " They hired private eyes?" " Yeah." "Pls, key logger on e-mail, everything." "So with number three, he wised up." "He always creates a false account of his whereabouts..." " ...that can stand up in court." " This was in the Times?" "I called the reporter." "She couldn't get the paper to run the full story." " But she's sure." " Nice." "So where was Barrett?" "The other night didn't go like he said." "I got a guard who says Barrett didn't step foot in his place." "Barrett is tight with people downtown." "Got the DA on my rear not to screw up." "We can't go after him with smoke." "Based on the holes in his alibi, I wanna take a fresh look at Barrett." "What you thinking, boss?" "Chris Feeney and Manny were part of something." "Barrett's lying, he must know what it is." "Our best motive is the construction material theft." "We know that's real." "How about we catch someone?" "There's copper pipe sitting at that site." "And I heard something's gonna go down tonight." " This one of your tips?" " Yeah." "Fine." "I'm coming with you." "Let's pull the unis off the site." ""Come into my parlour," said the spider to the fly." " Okay, how about the chop shop?" " Even I remember that case." "Spring, 2000." "Bettendorf's, right?" "It was way out in the country on..." "Old Post Road." "We must have sat for a month waiting for that guy to show." "But there was one saving grace." "Phylos Diner." "Best milkshake in New York." "Unbelievable." "Wait." "I hear Bettendorf." " It's a bird." " Not a bird." " It's a deer." " I think I hear Bettendorf." " I'll be damned." "It is Bettendorf." " Oh, God, we should call for backup." " You..." " I'll show you backup." "Carrie?" "Hey." "Are you seeing this?" "Police." "Don't move." "Hands up." "Turn around." "Cut him off!" "Police." "Don't move." " You okay?" " Yeah, I'm all good." " I don't know anything about murders." " One of my detectives was dangling because of you." "Why should I believe you?" " Didn't have anything to do with that." " Talk about what you were doing." "Who hired you to steal that copper pipe?" "The guys at the warehouse told me to pick up a load." "Thought it was legal." " How you doing?" "Remember me?" " Glad you're okay." " Shut up." "I was hanging off a building." " I can handle this." "I'm gonna handle this." "I'm asking the questions." " You're a dead man." " You can't touch me." "All I have to do is say you're cooperating, let you walk out." " I don't know anything." " You're a liability now." "Even if you didn't kill Chris, the people you work for did." "They're not gonna take a chance." " I want a lawyer." " No, you don't." "You wanna live." "So tell us what you know and we'll protect you, otherwise..." "All right." "They told me I had to pick up the pipe, take it back to the warehouse." "They gave me a key." "You take the pipe to the warehouse." "Then what?" " Nothing." "I get paid." "They handle it." " You sign a statement?" "Yeah." "Here's what we've got." "We got a warehouse leased by one of your shell companies in Bayonne." "Right now, it's full of construction materials stolen from your own construction site." " Are you charging my client?" " I'll get to that." "And we found out your alibi is bogus." "We could build a case you killed Chris Feeney." "Only I didn't." "And you know it." "Maybe." "Here's what I think happened." "You had an alibi but couldn't use it." "It involved a lady named Micheline at the St. Laurent." "Now, I can't help you with the theft charge." "That's for you and counsel to sort through." "The matrimonial issue is another story." " What are you proposing?" " Jay, let me handle this." "It's very simple." "I want full access to your records, everything." " No more hiding behind process." " And in return?" "And in return, I don't blow a big gaping hole in your marriage." "How's Stanley the Dentist?" "If you're telling people, that means you're attached." "I did not tell her." "I borrowed allergy medicine." "She guessed, kind of." " So how is he?" " He's fine." "Okay, his paw stopped bleeding, but I think he has fleas." "And hair balls." "And that goop in his eyes." "There." "Okay, here's a weird thing." "What's the drive time from the plant in Uniondale to the site?" " Twenty minutes." " That's what I thought." "How come it took Manny longer?" " Traffic?" " And he's the only one caught in it?" "Other drivers made their first delivery at 8:30, he didn't make his till 10." "Well, I got a kid." "It's kind of a small place." "Usually, Manny will swing by on his way to work while Troy's at preschool." "Tori, the girlfriend, in Uniondale." "Manny stopped by on his way to work." "She didn't mean the plant." "She meant afterwards, on his way to the site which means the whole time he was at her house he had a truck full of wet cement." "What am I supposed to do when this load locks up on me?" "What?" "Are you gonna pay for it?" " He was afraid Chris would tell on him." " And get him fired?" "Mr. Barrett, you actually know about construction, right?" " You're more than a financial guy." " Your point?" "I got a question that combines two areas of your expertise." "What if a guy wants to have a rendezvous?" "Only problem, he's driving a loaded cement truck." " This some kind of joke?" " No." "The guy's an idiot." "The cement would set." " What if he stuck a hose in it?" " He'd ruin the load." "He'd ruin the load." "What if he showed up to the site?" "And what if this happened day after day after day?" "You'd have crappy concrete." "And the building would be unsound." "There were two city inspections." "We passed both." "Who handles that?" "Is there a way to cheat?" "Rig the samples?" "My guy, Spence, but..." "Oh, my God." "What's going on?" "What are you doing with those bags?" "Not a lot I can do with them." "Except get a workout." "They're 80 pounds each." " That's gotta be 2000 pounds?" " I don't understand." "Unless I'm mistaken, I'm standing on a floor made exclusively from concrete delivered by Manny Armondo's truck." " What's your point?" " Come on over here and I'll tell you." "Things haven't been going so well for you lately?" "First you screwed up that Indian casino out West had to delay their opening." "There were safety violations on that college dorm in Hartford." "And now this." "If you're suggesting this building isn't sound, you're way off base." "That is what I'm suggesting." "In fact, I'm gonna do more than just suggest it." "I'm gonna prove it." "What do you weigh?" "Like 195 pounds?" "I'm about 115." "Yeah, you know, I don't think 25 bags of cement are gonna do it." " What is this?" " You're not under arrest." "I'm just detaining you for questioning." "The law says I can do that." "If we do a real test, go with the ASTM standards that platform should hold 10,000 pounds." "If there's 2000 pounds out there already and then there's you and then there's me." "And I got 5500 pounds here well, we should have nothing to worry about." "Unless what I think is true." "And then we have a whole lot to worry about." "I think Chris Feeney knew Manny screwed up." "Knew he was watering down the concrete while out with Tori Guerrero." "Chris did the right thing." "He came to you, told you what was going on." " You told him you'd handle it." " Wrong." "Two weeks passed." "Nothing happened." "Chris threatens to go above your head." "And all of a sudden, you have a whistle-blower on your hands." "You asked him to meet you here, give you a chance to explain." " I didn't kill Chris." " I think you did." "And Manny, he finds out." "Panics." "Gives himself away so you gotta kill him too." " You're looking green." " You're crazy." " Let's find out how crazy I am." " Stop!" "Just stop." "You're right." "The kid said he was gonna go to Barrett." "I offered him money." "I tried." "He wouldn't listen." "So you just killed him?" "I needed the job." "Well, gosh, why didn't you say so?" " So you just killed him?" " I needed the job." " You sure got a flair for the dramatic." " Not dramatic." " I knew how it was gonna end." " With you under a pile of concrete?" "Hardly." "You know those little foam squiggly things they pack boxes with?" "A little re-purposing, who knew?" "Yeah, yeah, he seems to like my bath mat, so I just put it in the box." "You're right." "He's cute." "He looks like a periodontist." "She could call him Gummy." "No, no." "That" " That's a deal breaker." "His name's Stanley." "Oh, and sometimes in the middle of the night he tries to crawl under my pillow." " Hey, my niece doesn't care." " Okay." "I" " Okay." "I've only had him three days." "Everything's perfect." "I got the flowers." "I got the tux." "Now we're waiting on the limo." "She looks great." " Perfect prom night so far." " Right." "So this gorgeous limo pulls up, Dad went a little overboard so I open up the back door, she gets in, I get in." "Suddenly, in the back seat, it's me and Alison..." " ...and three federal agents." " No." "Really?" "Yeah, they thought my dad was trying to skip town." "And I kid you not, one of the feds turns to me and says:" ""Hey, Stevie." "Happy prom night."" "Wow, that" " Yeah, that's bad." "It's bad." "It's" "The second worst prom night I've ever heard." " Oh, come on." "Top it." " Mine is worse." "Okay, so, at my prom all of these kids poured a bucket of blood on my head and then the gym caught fire and the whole school burned down." "I thought I knew your name from somewhere."
