"Why didn'tyou take appropriate steps... to know more that first night?" "We had a busy day, Bill." "Too busy to investigate properly?" "Your report says you were only in the room ten minutes." "I didn't have a warrant." "Given your reputation for undercoverwork" " What reputation areyou talking about?" " Let's get back on track." " What's he referring to?" " Let's drop it." "Am I being paranoid or is he busting my balls?" "Probably a little ofboth." "Bill, there was a time around here when I was almost as arrogant as you." "I don't have time for this." "I have to pull 75 agents out of Miami." "Keep me posted, Sam." " What do we do with this guy?" " We'll keep investigating." "Meanwhile, you could have my phone tapped."

" We'll tapyour phone." "By the way, Frank..." "Watts is nowhere near as arrogant as you were when you had Kennedy's ear." "Just what reputation was Watts referring to?" "You know damn well." "Is it because I'm considered a borderline burnout... with questionable social skills?" "What doyou want to talk to me about, besides your reputation?" "I want to be assigned to the president." " Protection?" " That's right." "After all theseyears?" "Christ, you're a dinosaur." "This guy's gonna make a try, and I've gotta be there." " Watts would fight me tooth and nail."

"Keep him on the line till we get the ANI." " Yeah." " Trying to traceme?" "Why didn't I think ofthat?" "You did oryou're not the adversary I'd hoped for." "Speaking ofwhich, how areyou?" "I was worried aboutyou today." " Why?" " In themotorcade" "I thoughtyou were gonna pass out." "You should get in shape for that kind ofduty." "Yeah, maybeyou're right."

" We got him." "Go!" "Get on the floor!" "Getyour hands where I can see them!" "He could have a device that manipulates the ANI... and fakes the line's identification." "Makes it seem like he's calling from another number." "Where would he get this device?" "He could build one ifhe were knowledgeable in digital circuitry." " Butyou can't trace the call." " You can run a parity check." "Ifhis line is wired for digital switches." "You can trace the call?" "Not ifit's an old, twisted-pair, analog line." "Damn it,Jack, give a straight answer... or my partner will shoot offhis foot." "He calls again, you keep him on the line." "We'll see what we can do." "Right, Tony?" "You might suggest to the police that they don't knock down any more doors." "I'm intrigued, but why play it for me?" "We'd likeyou to consider canceling the president's dinner tomorrow." "The state dinner, at the French embassy?" "Doyou know how long it took to line up this trip this close to the election?" "This guy's manipulated the phone system." "Ifhe has a knowledge ofexplosives, there could be problems." "Doyourjob, there won't be any problems." "It's not that hard to smuggle weapons inside an embassy." "You think the French want to knock off the president?" "Areyou nuts?" " They love him." " Why does every chiefofstaff" "You have no reason to believe this guy is any more dangerous... than thousands ofothers who make idle threats... butyou want me to alter the itinerary ofthe world's most powerful man... and risk offending 40 million French." "Isn't it possible this guy has pushed some buttons in you?" "Maybeyou're overreacting a little." "I'm just trying to protectyour boss, damn it." "So am I. We're trailing 1 2 points in the latest polls." "He could be out ofajob in six weeks." " He's got to be seen." " Even ifit kills him?" "Next order ofbusiness?"

" Agent Raines, you look devastating." " Thankyou." "Good enough to eat, I might add, ifyou'll pardon the expression." "Every time I start to sympathize with you... you say something that really annoys me." "Why sympathize?" "The tape ofthat phone call, when he mentioned yourwife." "Ex-wife." "At any rate, I'm sorry." "It's strange that the only sympathy I get these days... is from a would-be assassin or a woman I tend to annoy." "Would you care to dance?" "Perhaps some other time." "I get offing a couple hours." "What areyou looking at?" "I was wondering whereyou hideyour firearm." "Don't tell me." "Let me guess." "We're on finalapproach to LosAngeles."

"What was the name ofthat high school on Thirdjust across from" "I'm sorry, but I'm very late for a meeting." "Will this take long?" "Not at all." "Just another minute." "Thankyou." "You have a very pleasant way aboutyou." "Thankyou, Mr. Carney." "Agent Raines, how would you like to give a colleague a ride home?" "Why doyou keep flirting with me?" "Am I flirting with you?" "You know it can't possibly go anywhere, so why keep doing it?" "Maybe it's because I know it can't possibly go anywhere." "Give me a lift." "I'll buyyou an ice cream." "No further obligations." "Oh, boy." "I'venever worked witha female agentbefore." " How many are there?" " About 1 25." " Pure window dressing." " Excuse me?" "Window dressing." "About 1 25 out ofa little over 2,000." "They haveyou all around so the president can look good... to his feminist voters." "Doyou make an effort to be obnoxious or is it a gift?" "It's a gift." "Halfthe things we do are window dressing." "Take running alongside that limousine." "It'd take an antitank missile to put a dent in that damn thing." "There we are out for show... trying to make the president look more presidential." "IfI'm here to court the feminist vote... what demographics doyou represent?" "Let's see." "White, piano-playing heterosexuals over the age of50." "There ain't a whole lot ofus, but we do have a powerful lobby." "Well, time flies when you're being annoyed." " Where areyou going?" " I have a date." " With whom?" " That's none ofyour business." "You want a ride?" "I don't think so." "I like it here this time ofday." "I'll hang out." "Thanks for the ice cream." "Seeyou." "You're welcome." "Ifshe looks back, that means she's interested." "Come on now, give me a little look." "One little glance back." "Give me that smug look and be on yourway." "Well, Abe" "Damn, I wish I could have been there foryou, pal." "Hi, baby." "How areyou doing?" "Come on up here." "Give me a kiss." "That's a good boy." "Yes, I missed you too." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to startleyou." "I gotyour address from the phone book." "But I'm not listed." "Uh-oh." "I suppose I better come clean." "I followed you." "I'm sorry." "I'm not very good at this." "I'm new in town." "I was wondering ifyou would care tojoin me for dinner tonight." "That's very sweet, but I" "And I also wanted to apologize for lying toyou this afternoon." "We both know I'm not from Minneapolis."

"You know, ifyou werejust to acknowledge... that it was an unfortunate situation" "I won't apologize for doing myjob." "I'm not saying you should... but the president was humiliated." "He's alive, isn't he?" "We're here to safeguard his dignity as well." "I'm not paid for that." "What about the time Kennedy's girlfriend was caught in the White House... and you said she was with you?" "Don't believe every rumor someone tells you." "Wilder told me the whole story... about howyou were suspended a month without pay." "I'd say that was safeguarding his dignity." "That was different." "He was different." "Maybeyou were different." "I was different." "The whole damn countrywas different." "Everything would be different right now too... ifI'd been halfas paranoid as I am today." "Fuck." "Why notjust retire, Frank?" "Live offyour pension." "I mean, what's the point?" "Somebody else asked me that not long ago." "Hell, you don't spend any money on anything exceptjazz records." "I want to stay on the Booth case." "All right." " As for protective detail, I can't" " I understand." "That thing in Chicago-- I just don't understand." "I've never been on the wrong side ofajudgment call like that." "You had the flu, for Christ's sake." "It's been known to impairjudgment." "Face it." "You're too old for this shit." " Hello." " What happened in the Windy City?" "The balloon getyou in a little panic?" " You were there?" " Yes, I was." "Watching the president, I couldn't help wondering... why a man likeyou would risk his life to save a man like that." "You have such a strangejob." "I can't decide ifit's heroic or absurd." "Whywould a man likeyou risk his life to kill a man like that?" "Don'tyouhaveapsychologicalprofile onmeyet?" "I don't put a lot ofstock in them." "Nor do I." "A man's actions don't equal the sum ofhis psychological parts." " Doesn't work that way." "Just how does it work?" "It doesn't work." "God doesn't punish the wicked and reward the righteous." "Everyone dies." "Some die because they deserve to." "Others diesimplybecause theycome from Minneapolis." "It's random, andit'smeaningless." "Ifnone ofthis means anything, then why kill the president?" "To punctuate the dreariness." "It sounds to me likeyou need to getyourselflaid." "You're the same as me." "Name one thing in your life that has any meaning." " I play the piano." " That'snotenough." "How doyou know?" "Doyou play?" "I've seen you in your bar alone." "There's no cause left worth fighting for." "All we have is the game." "I'm on offense." "You're on defense." "When do we start playing the game?" "The clock's ticking." "Take care." "Wait." "He scrambled it again." "I missed him." "Fuck!" "Fucker." "Jesus, Frank." "I've been calling for hours." "I thought something happened toyou." "Areyou okay?" "No, I'm not okay." "I'm sick, I'm tired, and I'm armed." "So be careful." " You're also a genius." " Not to be recognized in this lifetime." " You listen to the tapes ofthe call?" " Yeah." "Rememberyou said" "Call the Minneapolis field office." "Ask about accidental deaths... anything we might pin to Booth." " Will you listen to me, please?" " Spit it out." "You said to have field agents check into model builders." "There's a professor at the Art Center College of Design... in Pasadena, California." "I thinkwe got something." "Like I told your colleague, I met him at a design conference in New Orleans." "We ordered some drinks at a hotel bar." "He seemed like a nice enough guy." "This is good." "But when the talk turned to politics, he took on a real nasty edge." "He said he felt betrayed by the government... and he wanted to exact some measure ofrevenge." "The way he said it scared the shit out ofme." "So I said, "Okay, nice talking toyou." "Good luck."" "And I got the hell out ofthere." "But I cannot remember his name." "But I'm pretty sure he said he was from Phoenix." "You guys ought to talk to a guy in Phoenix named WalterWickland." "He knows everybody down there." "Book us on the first flight to Phoenix." "How about we get a police artist togetherwith the professor here... have a composite sketch faxed to us?" "You figure that one out all byyourself?" "Kiss my ass." "I told you you'd make a good agent." "It doesn't look much like him, but that's got to be Mitch Leary." "I haven't seen him in over a year." "What doyou know about the guy?" "Doyou see this wheelchair?" "Mitch bought it for me." "It cost over a thousand dollars." " See this?" " Whoa, take it easy." "This is in case he ever comes back." "He accused me ofripping off one ofhis model designs." "Said my penalty for disloyaltywas death." "You put him away, let me know." "I'll sleep better." "You got any idea where we can find him?" "Yeah, I think I might have his address around here somewhere." "Don't move." "Drop it!" " Let him go, Horrigan." " I got him." "It's okay." "We're on the same team." " Hands, motherfucker!" " I'm getting my identification!" "Give it to me." "David Coppinger, CIA." "Who's this asshole?" " He's with me." " Shit." "Goddamn it." "Areyou here for Leary or me?" "Mr. Leary used to be one ofour operatives." "He's threatened to kill the president." "We didn't think he was serious till you found that fingerprint." "Butyou and the FBI knew." " I understand your frustration." " You understand my frustration?" "You pompous son ofa bitch!" "What the fuck did Leary do foryou anyway?" "Run coke for the Contras?" "Sell arms to Iran?" "It's a C-1 2 matter, so this is offthe record." "Ifasked, I'll deny it." "Leary is what we nowadays call a wet boy." "What's a wet boy?" " Leary's an assassin." "Jesus." "In Leary's case, that's putting it too gently." "He's more like a predator." " Was thatyou shooting?" " Yes." "What kind ofgun is that?" "Something I made." "No kidding?" "You made it?" "Guess it beats paying for it." "Can I see it?" "Yeah." " Shit, it's light." " Yeah?" " What's it made of?" " It's composite, like plastic." "It's pretty neat." "You mind ifI give her a little dance?" "Not at all." "Go for it." "That is really great!" "Would you be interested in selling it?" "No, I need it." "Forwhat?" "To assassinate the president." " Whywould you want to do that?" " Why did you kill that bird, asshole?" "Mitch Learywas one ofour most effective contractors... but political climates changed, and cutbacks were made." "Leary didn't take it too well." "He couldn't adjust to civilian life." "We've been looking for him for some time." "Maybeyou folks in the FBI will have more luck." "Ifwe can work together, it's possible." "Wouldn't that be refreshing?" "We have his fingerprints and numerous photographs." "What makes you think he looks like any ofthese?" "They're at least 1 5 years old." "A man in his line stays out ofthe camera's eye." "They're worthless." "He'll be in disguise anyway." " We need photo alterations." " Yeah." "Gentlemen, what I'm about to showyou... is highly classified." "This man is a former colleague of Leary's." "A close friend... who went by his home in Phoenix to try to persuade him... to accept counseling and retraining." "This is how Leary treats his friends." "We need every possible variable:" "facial hair, skin colorization... glasses, weight changes." "Keep in mind, he's 1 5 years older now." "As good as they are, they aren't much good." "The eyes are dead." "Always tell a man by his eyes." " Look, tomorrow morning, I'd like" " I'm resigning tomorrow." "What?" "Why?" "Just because you were scared in Phoenix?" "Hell, I was scared too." "You did yourjob." "I have nightmares... about that boat, with the plastic bag over my head." "I can't breathe." "Phoenixjust clinched it." " The Service has counseling for this." " I've been to the counselors." "Look, I need you." "We can get this guy." "I can't do it!" "Stop this cockamamie shit now, will you?" "Come on, pal, I need you." "Please." "Cockamamie." "That's a word your generation hasn't embraced yet." "Maybeyou ought to use it once in a while... just to keep it alive." " Cockamamie." " Yeah." " Oh, God." " It madeyou laugh, for Christ's sake." "You kill me." "Frank, he's on the line!" "I got it." " Hello?" " Hello, Frank." "Let me take a second to give a heartywelcome to all ofyou... joiningourprogram inprogress." "I know whoyou are, Leary." "I'm glad, Frank." "Friends should be able to call each other by name." "We're not friends." "Sure weare." "I've seen whatyou do to friends." "What's that supposed to mean?" "You slityour friend's throat." "You talked to Coppinger?" "Yeah, that's right." "Did you delouse?" "The man's a professional liar." "I saw the photos." "No, yousaw what he wantedyou tosee." "I saw a picture ofyour friend... lying on the floor with his throat cut." "Butyou didn't see whatyou couldn't possibly know." "They sent my best friend, my comrade in arms... to my home to kill me!" "Your voiceisshaking." "I never lied toyou, and I neverwill!" "Why is it everyone who ever knewyou... said thatyou're a sick son ofa bitch?" "Your colleagues, yourwife." "Whatdoesyour wifesay aboutyou?" "We're not talking about me." "I wantyou ofall people to understand." "WhyshouldIunderstand?" "We both used to think this country was a very special place!" " Youdon'tknow whatIusedto think." " Butyou know about me?" "Doyou have any idea what I've done for God and country?" "Some pretty fucking horrible things!" "I don't even remember who I was... before they sunk their claws into me." " They madeyou into a real monster." "Andnowthey want to destroyme... because we can't have monsters roaming the quiet countryside." "What doyou see when you're in the dark and the demons come?" "I seeyou." "I seeyou standing over the grave... ofanother dead president." "That's not going to happen." "I'm on toyou." "Fuckyou." "I am willing to trade my life for his." "I am smart and willing, and that is all it takes." "That president is coming home from California... in a fucking box." "Where in California?" "You want the address?" "Come on." "I'll keepyou in the game, but I'm not going to throw it foryou." "Giveyourselfup." "So Icanlivealong andfruitfullife?" "We can work something out." "Fuckyou." "Don't fucking lie to me." "I have a rendezvous with death." "And so does the president." "So doyou, ifyou get too close to me." "You have a rendezvous with my ass, motherfucker!" "Doyou know how easily I could kill you?" "Doyou know how many times I've watched you go in and out ofthat apartment?" "You'realivebecause Ihaveallowedyou tolive." "Soyoushowme... some goddamn respect!" "St. Francis Hotel, Florida Avenue in northeast." "Let's go!" "Move it!" "Take my hand." "Take it." "You don't, you'll die." "You're going to shoot me, after I saved your life?" "Shit!" "The onlyway to save the president is to shoot me." "Areyou willing to tradeyour life for his?" "Or is life too precious?" "Don't fucking move!" "Frank, I got him." "Nothing here." "Frank, you got a phone call." " Yeah." " You looked so sad on the bus." "I'm sorry." "It was self-defense." "Tell me about Skellum." "You'rebarking up the wrong tree." "Skellum 's worthless." "Meeting him in Los Angeles?" "It's late in the game, and you're way behind." "I'm way ahead." "I know whatyou look like." "I've seen your eyes." "My eyesmightlook differentnext time." "What's behind them won't." "You better pray I don't find you, prick." "" Pray"?" "Doyou want to kill me?" "That's right." "Theironyisso thick youcouldchoke onit." "There's no fucking irony, Mitch!" "Think." "The same government that trained me to kill, trained you to protect." "Yet nowyou want to kill me, while, up on that roof, I protected you." "They'll write books about us." "I'm tired ofyour bullshit!" "Don'tbeapoorsport." "You could have taken me out, butyou chose to saveyour ass." "Don't cry about it now." "It does make me wonder about Dallas though." "Didyoureally do allyoucouldhave... ordidyou makea choice there too?" "Doyou really have the guts to take a bullet?" "I'll be thinking about that when I'm pissing on your grave." "There's no one named Skellum in all of Los Angeles?" " Ran five differentcounties." " What about Louisiana?" "Jack was checking that." "Hangon." "NoSkellums." "Sorry." "Shit." "Damn it!" "The election's in three weeks." "You're asking me to commit political suicide." "I'm asking you to stay out ofCalifornia." "Ifthis guy's so smart, he won't tell you where he'll make an attempt." "He wouldn't lie to me." "Isn't that sweet?" "Haveyou become that close?" "California is the key to the whole damn race." "We've narrowed the gap to five points." "We can't let up now." "We'll change our procedures." "Move him around in unmarked cars." "Frisk everyone withing 50 yards." "Frisk people going into $1 0,000-a-plate dinners?" "You're overreacting again." "IfI don't overreact, the president's dead." "Why is he here?" "I said keep him away." "Frank's heading this investigation." "Then let him investigate." "As long as he doesn't come within sight ofthe president." "Now, ifyou'll excuse me, I'm in the middle ofa campaign here." "Hi." "Up late?" "Lead advance for Los Angeles." "It's a lot ofwork." " What's up?" " I've got a request." "I'd likeyou to talk to Watts." "Get me on your advance team." " He thinks you'll overreact." " What doyou think?" "I think maybe you're too close to all this." "That's why I've got to be there." "I can spot him." "I can anticipate him." " You think he'll be in California?" " Yes." " Whywould he tip his hand like that?" " To keep the game close." "He'll be there." "This has nothing to do with you and me." "Strictly professional." "But that son ofa bitch killed my partner, my friend." "I know." "I'm sorry."
