"You're not ugly." "You got a place to stay?" "Yeah." "I found a cheap motel across from the airport." "Cheapest place I could get, but... two or three nights working here, I think I can get a good place, move out of there." "And what if that bruiser comes looking for you?" "He won't." "I talked to God at Kennedy Airport in New York before I left." "He told me that I have to live for my baby." "So I told him that I would kill anybody who tried to hurt me like that."

"Morty Price has been with Cannata and Doss since they began working in Las Vegas." "Dorothy Bain is the question mark." "Except, we think we know why she might have killed Morty Price." "Annie said Dorothy told her stories about... being beaten by her husband back in New York." "That's what drove her and the baby to Miami." "I called him there, he was no help." "But I did find out from NYPD... that Dorothy tried twice in the past six months to have him arrested." "Assault and battery." "So maybe Morty wanted to have a little S8M party... and Dorothy wasn't up for it." "And then Cannata and Doss order a hit... 'cause she snuffed out their old friend." "Yeah, maybe a vendetta." "Uh-uh." "It doesn't add up." "Yeah." "Why would they wanna risk blowing a multi-million dollar shot... at a casino racket on a vendetta against a cocktail waitress?" "Cannata and Doss, we'll begin with them." "Switek, Zito, I want video surveillance at Shelborne." "Gina and Trudy, I want you guys to try to get jobs at the hotel." "Crockett and Tubbs, Dorothy Bain." "She's the key." "Yup." "[camera clicking]" "[inaudible]" "(Doss) You were supposed to get the papers... not start World War Ill." "What?" "I don't wanna hear it." "No." "It's not their fault the heat showed up." "It's your fault we're in this mess to begin with." "You had to place bets with that jackass friend of yours, Price." "Hey, have a little respect." "The guy's dead." "Yeah." "So is our chances of turning this joint into a legit casino... if we don't beat the cops to them tally sheets." "So they find them." "Big deal." "It's only names and numbers." "Circumstantial evidence." "They take to the DA... and the next thing we're having lunch with the grand jury, what?" "Okay." "So we'll put the word out, find the girl, have her taken care of." "End of story." "You forget how to knock?" "(Nello) I'm sorry, Mr. Cannata." "Robbie's here." "Hey, Robbie." "How's the baby?" "Good." "Here's the check." "It was a good two weeks." "Everything all right at the club?" "Sure." "So?" "Why can't you sit and talk?" "Talk?" "About what?" "You were talking about business." "Your business." "I don't want anything to do with your business." "What business?" "No business." "Frank made a couple of bets... which the markers got misplaced." "All right, whatever you say." "Don't candy-coat it." "If he's using our money, he ought to know." "He ought to help." "Well, you're getting your money back with interest." "Say, listen, from now on I'll mail you the checks." "Robbie." "No." "(Annie) So how could you be my agent... and run this burger stand at the same time?" "That's what I'd like to know." "You want something done, Annie, you ask a busy man." "I got some talent scouts coming from Hollywood." "And we're gonna get you a real big gig." "# Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz?" "##" "Well, here's the scouts." "(Pompeii) That's my girl."

"Taking in the scenery?" "Yeah, we're looking, but it ain't at the scenery." "Looking for your girlfriend Dorothy." "With the baby?" "You seen her?" "Maybe she clicked her heels and went back to New York." "Don't hold out on us, Annie." "This girl is target practice... and if you don't help us, you'll be in the orphan-making business." "Really?" "That's as real as it gets." "I'll keep an eye out." "I will." "Good." "Hey, can I get you some Spielburgers?" "Compliments of my agent." "Thanks, but no thanks." "He doesn't eat meat."

"Yeah." "No, wait, look, I'm a good friend of Robert Cann's." "That's about the 45th time I heard that tonight." "You don't understand, I'm his kid's godfather." "I don't care if you're his grandmother." "Let me show you his birth certificate." "Any friend of Robbie's is a friend of mine." "You're in." "Pays to know people in high places."

"That's what I think." "I got a feeling this isn't a personal visit." "Robbie, your name showed up on a list of people that were seen... with Johnny Cannata and Frank Doss." "So?" "Flash." "They're under surveillance by us and who knows who else." "[sighs]" "The only affiliation I have with them... is that they're... general partners with me in the ownership of this place, Sonny." "I needed money and they had it." "It's that simple." "I didn't do anything wrong." "I didn't say you did do anything wrong." "They're trying to kill a young girl." "I don't know about that." "I didn't say you did." "Then what are you saying?" "I'm trying to say, do whatever it takes to cut yourself away from these guys." "They're bad news, pal." "And if you do hear anything, anything at all, you'll tell me." "I will, believe me." "All right." "That's all we wanted to talk about." "Listen, do me a favor." "Don't mention this to Julia." "You got it." "Are you sure you haven't heard anything about this woman?" "Her name is Dorothy Bain." "No." "What did I say?" "No?" "Then it is no." "You're sure?" "Tubbs." "You got a hearing problem, Tubbs?" "This woman has a baby... lust a little bit older than yours, Robert." "Get him out of here, Sonny." "Doss and Cannata... are trying to kill a mother with a little baby." "Get him out of here!" "(Tubbs) That scene back there was a riff." "Look, I've known this guy for 18 years." "He may come off like a playboy, but he's strictly by the book." "People change." "Don't worry about it." "He's my friend." "Yeah?" "I'm sorry, but I gotta worry about it." "That's my job." "What are you trying to say, pal?" "Your personal connection here is a problem." "Give it up." "Look, any first-year man can see that something's going on with him." "You don't know him." "Look, I don't have to know him." "Anybody who's a general partner with Doss and Cannata... has gotta know something." "You're not facing reality, Man." "And you're not hearing me." "He's my friend."

"nny Bain." "Not now, Gina." "He's Dorothy Bain's husband." "Are you in charge?" "'Cause I can't get a straight answer from this one." "is Dorothy being accused of murder?" "If you know where she is, I want her and my son back." "And if you don't, tell me... 'cause I'll get a private detective to find her... who'll do a lot better job than the Dick Tracy club you got here." "Why?" "You having trouble finding somebody new to smack around?" "I'll give you a reason to hit someone, pal." "Take it easy." "Or maybe it doesn't turn you on when somebody hits back." "Hey." "Is that right?" "Crockett!" "Is that right?" "Sonny." "(Castillo) Crockett." "I would like to see you in my office." "You're off the Morty Price case." "What did you do, drop by to say "l told you so"?" "Castillo was right, you are too close" "Save the lecture." "And you know it." "Don't tell me what I know, all right?" "Okay, man, don't jump in my face because you let your friend play you." "You got a beef with everybody... except the one person you should have got it together with from jump city." "Now you knew Robbie was giving you a line... and now you're lust mad at yourself... for trying so hard not to hear it." "We were buddies." "Hey, look, Sonny." "I don't have all the answers." "I just came by to tell you... that you're not the first cop who had his friend hold out on him." "Work it out, man." "[door closing]" "Give me a minute, please." "Daddy?" "I need you... [sobbing] I don't know what's happening to me." "I just want you to come and take Stevie back to New Jersey, okay?" "I don't care." "Please." "Yeah, okay." "All right." "Bye." "Julia, do you know how much I love you?" "More than that." "You're everything to me." "I...." "Can I call you back?" "Yeah, Sonny's here." "Yeah." "Bye-bye." "Julia sends her love." "Didn't you think I'd understand?" "It's like a scar, Sonny, being related to those people." "It's like having a cancer growing out of you." "I mean, do you show that to somebody?" "You were one of the closest people in the world to me." "I was?" "What am I now?" "You tell me." "Your father's trying to put a hit on that girl with the baby." "I don't know anything about that!" "I'm not in their business." "And I ain't buying it." "Don't play dumb with me, Robbie." "All I know... is Doss and Morty Price made some bets... and the girl took some of their tally sheets." "So they've got a contract out on her for tally sheets?" "And you're gonna stand by and let that girl die... because your father needs to stay clean so he can start a casino?" "What am I supposed to do?" "Send my father to prison?" "I mean, what do you want from me, Sonny?" "I mean, for the first time since we landed back in the world... I feel like a man." "I got a wife, a kid, a business." "I can hold my head up in the street." "is that what being a man is?" "Standing by and letting that girl get blown away... so that you can live high on the hill?" "What's happened to you, man?" "Where's your sense of right and wrong?" "Hey, I've got rights and wrongs." "I left that family for 12 years and stayed away." "Nobody does that and lives to talk about it." "But I did." "I was struggling to get money to start this place... and then Julia got pregnant." "I was tapped out." "Sonny, I didn't want my kid not to have." "The family offered me the money and I took it." "And I can't just walk away." "One of these days I'll buy them out." "But right now, they got me, Sonny." "In their eyes, I'm obligated." "Only obligation you've got is to yourself." "If you can get up in the morning and look in the mirror... and be proud of what you see... then you fulfill that obligation." "If you can't, then you're worth nothing to nobody." "Not to yourself, not to Julia, not to me... and certainly not to your son." "Maybe you're right." "Maybe I am nothing." "[panting]" "So what do you think?" "Bullet through the brain?" "I mean, that would put me out of everybody's misery." "That's not the answer, man." "No?" "Then what is the answer, Sonny?" "You?" "I mean, you can get me out of a fight in a bar." "I mean, you can get me out of one of the hottest areas of operation... crawling with NVA." "I'm half-dead and wounded." "But this is family." "This is blood." "And I cannot separate myself from it." "You gotta do something." "Find out if they know where she is." "I know where the girl is." "What?" "One of my father's people fingered her." "I overheard where." "You gotta tell me." "If I tell you, I'm dead." "Doss will cut my heart out." "Hey, what do you think?" "You remember that kid corporal in Da Nang... the one that put a bullet through his head?" "I wonder what he saw when he looked in the mirror." "If you don't tell me, Robbie... I gotta put you away for conspiracy to commit murder." "So arrest me." "I got a better idea." "Let's call Julia up right now." "Let's call her up and take her with you so she can meet this girl... and then you shoot her, right in front of her... so your wife can see what you really are." "I know what's right for me, you know." "[grunting]" "The man I knew always did what it took... and it hurt sometimes, but he did it." "Because that's the only thing that got us out of the jungle, with our minds." "There was no "me and I" in our unit." "You and me, Robbie." "You and me." "We refused to throw those POWs out of the choppers." "No matter what the rest of the world was saying... we did the right thing." "That's what being a man is all about." "Not standing by and letting Doss and your father... put holes in a young girl." "They'll kill my baby, Sonny." "Don't you get it?" "If you let them do this... you won't be able to look at your son."
