"Where's the damn cash?" "!" "You got everything!" "Just go!" "Get on the ground!" "Down!" "Shut up!" "ea Plse, don't do this!" "Mr. Wilson, please describe what you saw and you approached the Nieman's home." "Mr. and Mrs. Nieman were on their knees." "There was a male intruder holding them at gunpoint." "The security company you work for sent you to their home" "in response to a silent alarm." "Yes." "Please tell us what happened next." "Don't do this!" "le emHe kild th." "The intruder shot and killed Glen and Dana Nieman in cold blood." "Yes." "Can you identify that intruder?" "Mr. Wilson, is the man who killed the Niemans in this courtroom today?" "I don't know." "You confirmed to the police and in a sworn affidavit to my office that you saw the defendant Derrick Markham murder the Niemans." "Yeah." "The thing is, it was dark." "I, uh..." "I couldn't really see his face." "Mr. Wilson, you are under oath, sir." "So I will ask you again, did you or did you not see the defendant...?" "I'm sorry," "Mr. Stark." "I just can't be sure." "Someone got to the son of a bitch." "It doesn't make sense." "Markham's a small-time burglar." "Yeah, it's not like he could afford to buy off our witness." "Well, wither Wilson's got early onset Alzheimer's or he took a dive." "Without Wilson's 'ing Markham, we've got no case." "By the time I'm done threatening this clown with perjury and obstruction of justice, he'll testify Markham was on the grassy knoll." "Ah, a temporary seack." "We got nothing to worry about." "You okay?" "Yeah." "You okay?" "Now you can worry." "Capture:" "ÇòÇò Sync:" "FRM@ÂÒ²¨" "In addition to Mr. Wilson, two sheriff's deputies and a country transportation worker lost their lives in this vicious attack." "Our deepest sympathy are extended to their families." "As District Attorney, I want the city to know that this sort of attack on our justice system will simply not stand." "My office is working hand in hand with law enforcement to ensure that whoever is responsible is brought to justice." "What are you wearing?" "None of your damn business, Sebastian." "Is it just me or does Cutler sound like a used car salesman?" "It's the suit." "It's a tough spot." "Makes me glad I'm not the D.A. anymore." "You okay?" "We're all fine." "My case is on life support, though." "Looks like your defendant's got some powerful friends." "Uh, too small for a terrorist attack." "What do you think, organized crime?" "Car bomb in a public area in the middle of the afternoon?" "It's their M.O." "Hey, Jess," "Casey left us to run his dad's campaign for Governor." "I'm shorthanded." "I'm busy." "You took the job at Packer Ellis?" "Oh, God, corporate litigation?" "I'd blow my brains out." "So you're busy making sure the ice doesn't melt in your daiquiri?" "I am busy doing all of the little things that I never had time for." "And it's a mojito." "Jess, it's one case." "I got a double murder, and now four more people are..." "Jess?" "Jessica?" "I thought Derrick Markham was a garden-variety schnook." "Since when do witnesses get killed in a botched home-invasion trial?" "I checked him out myself." "Markham's a neighborhood guy;" "crimes of opportunity." "Someone sure as hell wants to see him walk." "I'll see what Slocum can tell us about the bomb." "I'll recheck Markham's background." "Maybe we missed something." "Here's a hint." "Look for ties to a major badass capable of detonating our witness in broad daylight." "Well, somebody pressured Wilson in the last 72 hours, so I'll work up a timeline." "When I woke up this morning, we were prosecuting a robbery gone wrong." "Now I got four more bodies, two of 'em cops." "I want to know what the hell we're dealing with." "You lost?" "One of the cops who died used to work security for me." "He's got an eight-year-old daughter." "One case." "I knew you wouldn't let me down." "Sure I would." "You look tired." "I can't sleep." "House is too quiet since Julie moved to New York." "Maybe you should get a dog." "Or you could move in." "It's clear you can't live without me." "This was one of the last cases" "I assigned before I left." "I don't want you screwing up my batting average." "Fine, deny your feelings." "This is a one-shot deal." "You need to buy some time and Judge Cleary thinks I'm hot." "No argumt here." "Welcome aboard." "I'm not aboard." "You smell nice." "Shut up." "The charges against my client should be dismissed, Your Honor." "As a reward for blowing up the eyewitness who saw him commit double murder?" "There's no evidence my client had anything to do with that, and your witness couldn't I.D. him." "That's because whoever killed Mr. Wilson threatened him before he took the stand." "Any proof of that, Mr. Stark?" "Well, I need some time, Your Honor." "I'm still picking shuttle bus off my suit." "The prosecution has no case." "Under the circumstances, Your Honor," "I would request the court's indulgence." "Mr. Stark, can you offer anything that links Mr. Markham" "with the Nieman murders?" "May I be heard," "Your Honor?" "What is your interest in this case, Miss Devlin?" "I'm acting as a consultant in this matter." "Well, it's certainly a pleasure to have you back with us." "Isn't it?" "The prosecution is very close to securing a new witness." "What witness?" "Given the obvious security concerns in this case, we would prefer to keep the identity of our witness a secret." "Exactly." "This is a bluff, Your Honor." "Are you accusing the former District Attorney of lying?" "Nice, Warren." "I'll give the prosecution 48 hours to produce its new witness." "We could use a few more days." "Apparently, you're still feeling those mojitoes." "I just bought you 72 hours." "You promised the judge a witness we don't have." "Were you always such a big whiner?" "I don't need your help to get cited for contempt, okay?" "You got three days to rebuild your case." "Our case." "You just signed on for the duration, sunshine, and if we don't co up with that new witness, your perky little butt's gonna be right up there on the flagpole next to mine." "Spare me your fantasies." "They're all I have." "Ah, here we go." "That'lloday." "Thank you very much." "Ah!" "The dynamic duo." "Mr. District Attorney,you looked good on television today." "You may want to consider lifts." "A short joke." "You kidding me?" "Nice to see you, Jessica." "Neil." "I understand you made an appearance in the Markham case?" "At my request." "Well, the future, I'd appreciate it if you could run all personnel matters through my office." "I make thealls on my team." "You got a problem with that, check with the Mayor." "I just spoke with the Mayor." "We were talking about you." "Ah." "We agreed that your inability to protect your witness has caused this massive PR snafu." "Is that what you call a quadruple homicide outside the courthouse?" "The election's over." "The holier-than-thou shtick didn't really play, so let it go." "Tell me about this new witness you've got for us." "Made that up, did you?" "I'm shocked." "You and I may have something in common after all." "I find that hard to believe." "Try this." "I don't give a damn how you win this case." "Just win it." "He may turn out to be an upgrade." "Oh." "Hey, hey." "Hey, hey, hey, hey." "Don't tell me you're just getting hom work." "Long day in the trenches." "It's, like, 2:00 a.m. in New York." "Shouldn't you be in bed?" "I got my last final tomorrow, Contemporary European History." "It's all about the Euro." "I'll keep that in mind." "Did you get your plane reservation?" "About that..." "Dad," "I really want to come visit you, but..." "I've only got five days before my semester starts at Porter." "That's okay." "That's okay." "You know, we got Thanksgiving, so." "It's okay." "I'm really sorry." "How's your mom?" "She and Larry are fighting a lot." "Ooh, there's a surprise." "Look, Dad, I've got a bunch of work to do and you should get some sleep." "Yeah." "I miss you." "Yes, you do." "The bomb they used to kill your witness was an improvised explosive device." "They used two grenades to wire into the bus's ignition system." "Primitive, but effective." "Take a look." "The markings on the grenade casings aren't U.S. military issue." "So where they from?" "Ukraine." "They were Russian grenades?" "Circa 2003." "Popular with the Russian mob in Southern California." "Why would the Russians want to help out a loser like Derrick Markham?" "Victor Nazov." "Who?" "Markham did two years in Lompoc for armed robbery." "His cell mate was a punk named Victor Nazov, a soldier in the Russian mafia." "Did we ever talk to him?" "No." "Got deported back to Moscow after his release." "Well, our dead witness' cell phone records indicate he got calls from a pay phone located near Fairfax and Santa Monica the day before he testified." "That's Russian mob territory." "So you think Nazov hooked Markham up with the Red mafia?" "Let's find out." "?" "Why would the Russian mob go out of its way to save a two-bit hood like Derrick Markham?" "Russians don't make their money breaking into people's houses." "No, but maybe they wanted the Niemans dead and Markham was just a hired gun." "A, what's the motive?" "And B, even if they had one," "Russians don't trust the Americans." "They like to do their own dirty rk." "Not anymore." "That's old school." "The new bosses farm out their blood work." "Fascinating." "I'm sorry, who the hell are you?" "This is Danny Reyes from the Organized Crime Unit." "I thought he could give us some insight." "From his vast reservoir of experience?" "Danny's done six years in the OCU." "He's an expert on Eastern European crime in L.A., and he's got the highest conviction rate in the history of the unit." "The unit's only been around for eight years." "And this one's been around for one." "I say we hear him out." "Whoo." "If only this were a democracy." "Whatever, guys." "I have t cases pending." "You want to chase your tails on this one, be my guest." "Danny..." "Just one thing." "I'm the one who put Markham's pal, Victor Nazov, in jail." "Nazov worked for Andre Zutofsky, aka..." "Henry Zinman, new face of the Russian mob in L.A." "He's going head-to-head with Yuri Denikov to be number one." "Andre's smart, brutal as hell, has his hands in everything from insurance fraud to bogus pharmaceutical drugs." "He has no fear." "I've been chasing this evil bastard for the last four years, and, uh... your little bloodbath in Hancock Park?" "Yeah?" "Andre uses small-timers-- like Markham-- to carry out executions." "But why would Zutofsky want to kill Glen and Dana Nieman?" "I defer to your vast reservoir of experience." "Hey, Elliot Ness." "If you're such a big crimestopper, why isn't your guy Zutofsky in jail already?" "Because in the OCU, we don't prosecute jocks and movie stars while the cameras roll." "We go after hardcore professional criminals who kill for a living and enjoy it." "t trust me, when I do get him, they won't be cleaning my witness off the courthouse steps." "So if your guy Zutofsky's such a big shot, then Yuri Denikov would know all about him, right?" "Right." "But it's not like Denikov's gonna talk to us." "Come on." "Always protect your king." "Hustling chess is illegal, Yuri." "I never play for money." "It's been a while, my friend." "You look good." "Swimming." "Keeps you young." "And a zibuchki, huh?" "I need your help, Yuri." "I hear you are a prosecutor now." "Yeah, but the last time I got you off..." "I believe it was for, uh..." "conspiracy to commit murder, you said something about owing me a favor." "The courthouse thing, right?" "It's not my style." "Publicity is bad for business." "He listen, pal." "We got two dead cops." "This isn't going away." "You know the rule, Sebastian." "I'm not asking for a name." "I'm asking for a nod." "Andre Zutofsky." "Word on the street... he's got a new business, big money, but he doesn't like to share." "Where can I find him?" "Andre runs an art gallery." "By the Design Center." "likeso pretend that he's a high-class American." "Checkmate." "You're still the king." "Remind Andre when you see him." "People really put this crap on their walls?" "Well, that "crap" happens to be an Oliver Blake, circa 1986, top of his game." "I own two of his pieces." "They've gone up, mm, triple in value in nine years." "An astute purchase." "Andre Zinman." "Actually, it's Zutofsky." "Sebastian Stark." "Of course." "Welcome." "Thank you." "Your colleague and I are old friends." "Quite a show you put on at the courthouse, Andre." "I'm afraid I'm at a disadvantage." "Well, that'd be a first." "We're looking into the death of a witness in a double murder." "Actually, it was more like an execution." "I'm sorry, but what does that have to do with me?" "You ever seen this guy?" "No." "He doesn't look familiar." "So you didn't hire him to kill Glen and Dana Nieman?" "Your frid here thinks all Russian-Americans are gangsters." "Racial profiling is augly thing." "The profile fits." "Okay." "Well, -thank you." "We appreciate your time." "Hey, you're not walking away from this, you son of a bitch." "Mr. Stark!" "Come back alone." "I'll show you my private collection." "So, I thought I said play it cool." "Huh?" "Huh?" "That was cool, all right?" "Is this why you're on probation at the OCU?" "Did you actually smash a witness's head into the ground?" "He slipped." "He slipped." "So did Hoffa." "Zutofsky's nerve center-- millions of dollars worth of scans, dozens of death sentences." "We get in there..." "Andre's toast." "Good." "Then let's play it smart." "Be cool." "Take it easy." "Let him make the mistake." "We've had him under surveillance for two years." "He doesn't make mistakes." "Stark." "Excuse us, guys, coming through." "Please." "Thank you." "It's a message from Andre." "He wants us to know there's a new king in town." "w÷|" "We reexamined the personal laptop of the movie exec Markham killed." "Slocum recovered a series of deleted e-mails from a warehouse in Long Beach." "And the shell corporation that owns the warehouse is run by Andre Zutofsky." "Which links Zutofsky to the victims of the double homicide in Hancock Park." "Nice." "It's pretty thin." "Well, hopefully it's enough to get us a warrant to search this warehouse." "It better be." "We're running out of time to nail Markham." "If Markham walks on the Nieman murders, we can't charge Zutofsky for ordering the hit." "Went over a list of Zutofsky's suspected victims." "Benjamin Lutrova was one of his drivers." "Cops found his headless body in a garbage can." "Again with the decapitation." "His widow, Maria, still works Zutofsky's gallery." "If she was there the night of the double homicide, it might be worth a conversation." "I'll write up a warrant petition for the warehouse." "Sorry." "Never seen him." "We have reason to believe he worked for your boss." "A lot of people work for Andre." "Yeah, well, this guy killed two people in cold blood." "You were at the gallery the night it happened." "Like I said" "I've never seen him." "What do you do at the gallery, Maria?" "Inventory." "I make sure all of the art is accounted for." "Your boss must really trust you." "Trust has noing to do with it." "Nobody steals from Andre." "Did Andre trust your husband?" "The police report said that your husband had a falling out with Andre shortly before he was killed." "Ben's murder was never solved." "If you saw something," "Maria, we really need to know." "I have two kids, okay?" "I took a chance even coming in here." "If you're so scared, why don't you take your kids and leave Los Angeles?" "Leaving is a brayal, and it's not allowed." "Maria," "Andre's hurt a lot of people, and somebody has to stop him." "Now, I know you want your children to be safe, but that is never gonna happen as long as Andre's still around." "Let us help you." "You really want to help me?" "Make sure Andre never finds out I was here." "We believe Mr. Zutofsky's interest in the Long Beach warehouse justifies a search warrant, Your Honor." "If memory serves, you and Ms Devlin promised me a new witness." "Absolutely." "Signed, sealed and delivered, but, as for the warrant..." "The victim sends a few e-mails to a warehouse partially owned by Mr. Zutofsky, you expect me to authorize a fishing expedition?" "Mr. Zutofsky's connection to the defendant and the victim gives the People a compelling interest in the contents of that warehouse." "The framers of the Fourth Amendment might beg to differ." "So, that would be a no on the warrant?" "Very perceptive." "Your Honor," "there are..." "Thank you for your time." "Look forward to meeting that witness." "It'll be a love fest." "We can't just give up-- we need that warrant." "Do you see me waving a white flag?" "If the state won't let us conduct the search, we'll call the feds." "FBI?" "FDA." "The Food and Drug Administration?" "Since 9/11, they have increased authority to spot-check cargo coming in and out of the country." "The second those crates hit the dock, they become exported commodities." "And, as such, e subject to the jurisdiction of the United States Department of Commerce." "Boom." "Aren't spot-checks supposed to be random?" "They are." "Unless Stark knows an inspector who happens to owe him a favor." "So if this guy finds something in those crates that links Glen Nieman and Andre Zutofsky...?" "You're one stop closer to putting your guy away." "Ahh..." "Stark's pretty good." "He has his moments." "All clear." "Stolen computer programs...?" "Bogus credit card numbers?" "What?" "Wha-what is this?" "The Bloodbath, a Massacre." "What?" "DVD didn't come out till Halloween." "You serious?" "I'm a film buff." "All these movies were released by Marina Studios, where the late Glen Nieman was head of distribution,." "Pirated DVDs are serious money." "Fits Zutofsky's profile." "He and Nieman must he been in business together." "Until Andre decided to downsize." "I'll supvise the search of the warehouse." "And I suddenly feel the urge to go gallery-hopping." "Mr. Stark." "I didn't think I'd see you again so soon." "I thought I'd check out your private collection." "I should have known you'd end up in the movie business." "Fit right in with all the rest of the scumbags." "Mr. Reyes, you're beginning to become tedious." "Is that so?" "I got you by the balls, Andre." "And this time, I'm not letting go." "Check the office." "That's the woman I was telling you about." "Zutofsky killed her husband." "She's about to get some payba." "Damn it!" "Mr. Reyes... anything in particular you were looki for?" "He knew we were coming." "Put that together, d you?" "We're screwed." "Not yet." "We promised the judge a witness, and we're sure as hel going to deliver." "Hold on." "We're not even sure she saw anything." "We're not sure she didn't." "Sebastian..." "Jess, I've got six homicides in this case." "She is our only shot." "Take the girl." "We'll get her to talk." "We better, 'cause if we don't,?" "?" "?" "I'm sorry." "You're sorry?" "My kids are in hiding with my grandmother right now." "I may never see them again." "You will, I promise." "You don't know Andre." "You don't know what he's capable of." "I have a pretty good idea." "You recognized Derrickarkham, didn't you?" "Look, I don't like how we go here, but we're here now." "I know you're scared." "But I give you my word, whatever it takes..." "I will protect you." "I saw him." "Markham?" "He came to the back of the gallery the night those people were killed." "He had blood on his clothes." "I saw Andre give him money." "You're doing the right thing." "That's what my husband thought when he stood up to Andre." "We never s him again." "Thank you very much." "Judge Cleary granted us a day to prep Maria for trial." "good." "Anything on Zutofsky's DVD pirating scam?" "Invoices from the warehouse show they were shipping stolen movies to Europe and half of Asia." "So Glen Nieman was selling out his own studio?" "Internal memos show th knew it was an inside job." "The FBI was interviewing studio personnel." "Nieman knows he's about to get caught, so he tries to pull out." "But Zutofsky has other ideas." "He wasn't going to let Nieman rat him out." "So he hires Derrick Markham to stage a home invasion-- Nieman's history," "except Markham gets caught." "That's show biz." "All right, so we don't have enough to charge Andre, but with Maria's testimony we've got Markham cold." "You think he'll roll over on Zutofsky?" "Either that, or he takes the needle for double murder." "We still need Maria to come through on the stand." "She'll come through." "Why can't I bring my kids?" "They're safer with your grandmother." "You'll see them right after the trial." "I don't have any of my things." "An officer will bring everything you need to the safe house." "Do I have any more bids?" "$350,000 going once... twice..." "How long do I have to stay there?" "We're going to get you on the stand as quicklys we can." "We got company." "Hold on." "Our next item is a Vincent Chandler still life." "Bidding starts at $60,000." "Do I have an opening bid?" "$60,000." "Do I have $70,000?" "I have $70,000..." "What's happening?" "!" "Stay down!" "$80,000 now." "Do I have $90,000?" "$90,000 from Mr. Zinman." "Do I have $100,000?" "$100,000?" "Oh, God!" "I have $100,000 in the corner." "Do I have $120,000?" "$120,000." "$140,000 from Ms. Barrett." "Do I have $160,000?" "$160,000 from Mr. Zinman." "Hold on!" "Oh, God!" "Do I have any raises?" "Anyone?" "$160,000 going once... twice..." "Sold to Mr. Zinman." "I won't testify." "*Maria, listen..." "No, I'm done listening to you people." "I almost got killed toda" "You can't back out now." "The hell I can't." "I want my children brought here now." "And then what?" "Where will you go?" "Is there a place you can hide where Andre won't find you?" "We beefed up security." "We'll keep you safe." "And what about after I testify?" "What happens to me and my kids once Markham and Andre are in jail?" "Will you protect me then?" "We'll do the best we can." "What the hell does that mean?" "It means L.A. County has no witness protection program." "We can provide a security detail" "for awhile." "How long?" "A month, maybe two." "Andre's people will kill me the second the cops walk away." "You can leave L.A., make a fresh start." "How?" "I have no money, no job..." "I know you're scared, and I know we're asking a lot..." "You don't give a damn about me." "You know what?" "You want to be mad at somebody?" "You be mad at me." "I put you in this position." "And I am sorry for the pain that it has caused you." "But I wod do it again in a heartbeat." "Six people and your husband lost their lives." "My team almost got slaughtered protecting you." "These savages kill for sport." "It's my job to take them down by any means necessary." "Now, I need you to stand up and tell that jury what you saw, Maria." "cause it will save lives." "And because it's the right thing to do." "Ms. Lutrova, you were working late at Andre Zutofsky's art gallery the night that Glen and Dana Nieman were killed, is that right?" "Yes." "I was doing inventory on a new shipment of paintings." "Please tell us what you saw." "There was a man in the alley." "He was covered with blood." "Was this man alone?" "No." "My boss" "Andre Zutofsky was with him." "e man handed Zutofsky a gun." "Did the man say anything?" "Yes." "He said..." ""I had to kill the wife, too."" "And what did Mr. Zutofsky do?" "He handed the man some money." "He told him he should disappear for awhile." "Ms. Lutrova, is the man with the gun in this courtroom today?" "Ms. Lutrova?" "Maria?" "Do you see the man from the alley that night?" "Yes." "He's sitting over there." "Let the record show that the witness has indicated the defendant Derrick Markm." "In the matter of The People of California v. Derrick Thomas Markham, has the jury reached a verdict?" "We have, Your Honor." "On the two counts of first degree murder with special circumstances, we find the defendant guilty as charged." "One down." "You have a couple visitors." "She's got a lot of guts." "You see Markham's face?" "Looked like he saw a ghost." "Markham's not the one I'm worried about." "We'll get Andre." "Even if we get Markham to roll on him," "Andre's people are still going to come after Maria." "We did what we had to do." "You're not looking so hot, Derek." "You want a Fresca?" "Go to hell." "We'll meet you there, killer." "Have you ever seen anyone die by lethal injection?" "You know how they say?" "it's painless, humane?" "Don't you believe it." "It's like getting set on fire from the inside." "And whenhey get the dose wrong, man, that's a long painful death." "You got something to say?" "We want Zutofsky." "Yeah, well, good luck with that." "You testify that Andre paid you to kill Glen Nieman," "and you get to grow old in prison." "That's a good deal, Derek." "I'm not ratting out Andre." "I don't think you got the whole picture here, genius." "Either you play ball, or you're a dead man." "I'll take a needle over what Andre would do to me." "That guy-- he's not human, okay?" "He gets off on causing pain." "I've seen it." "I'm not going out like that." "I'm not going out like that!" "I'm not!" "We have a serious problem with this guy." "Maybe not." "Recognize these folks, Derek?" "That's your family down in Florida, right?" "Your sister, your mom." "Where the hell did yoget these?" "Top drawer of Andre's desk." "What's the point of this?" "Your client knows." "Right, Derek?" "Andre put out a contract on your family." "A little payback for getting busted on the Nieman job." "But how do I know you got these from Andre?" "I can barely write English." "You give us Andre Zutofsky, we'll see your fami's protected." "I didn't want to kill those people." "Andre made me do it." "I'll have your statement in the morning." "The pictures are a nice touch." "Friends in Florida?" "I worked a dozen drug cases with the guys down there." "And the Russian?" "?" "?" "I'm impressed." "I'm saving my best stuff for Andre... when we put his ass away for life." "It's you, Leo." "Everywhere." "Reminds me where I came from." "Must've missed the photo of hell." "I'm having it framed." "?" "?" "?" "?" "?" "Call maintenance." "I need a favor." "Here we go." "Maria Lutrova." "She came through big time for us in the Nieman case." "She needs federal protection." "Can you make a call?" "To the FBI?" "Last time I checked, they run the Witness Protection Program, yes." "Okay, I'll look into it." "No, there's nothing to look into." "She has two kids." "This one's worth it." "Tell you what, I will pass this along to my top deputy." "He's fantastic." "He'll get right into it." "Karen Dunmiller still work for you?" "Yes." "Why?" "Let's not insult each other." "During the campaign, my opposition research team got some pictures of you and Karen working late." "Pictures even you wouldn't put on your wall, Leo." "Pictures I definitely don't think your wife would unrstand." "You bitch." "No." "If I was really a bitch, I would've used them to sink your sleazy campaign." "That would've been the smart move." "You sitting behind this desk instead of me." "Not my style." "And now, you can buy the negatives... for the bargain-basement price of one phone call to the FBI." "Done." "Thanks, Leo." "Oh, the toilet in the private bathroom, you need to jiggle the handle." "I haven't seen anyone work the cards in a while." "Jack Thomas always said it helps him see the whole case." "Yeah, you worked for Maximum Jack, huh?" "First two years in OCU, before he retired." "He's a tough old bastard." "Hell oa prosecutor, though." "Oh, yeah, the best." "Guess that explains your nasty-ass attitude, huh?" "Yeah, so what's your excuse?" "So why organized crime?" "Too many Srsese flicks, I guess." "Maybe it's too many ghost stories." "You know, I tried to check out your background." "Oh, yeah?" "And why's that?" "Just like to know the people I'm working with." "Funny thing is, far as I could tell, until the day you registered for L.A. Community College," "Danny Reyes simply didn't exist." "So I moved around a lot." "Hey, Champ... this isn't my first time at the rodeo." "You are definitely hiding from something." "Or somebody." "We all have a past." "Preaching to the choir."
