WOW.

* 'CAUSE EVERY LITTLE THING *

* GONNA BE ALL RIGHT *

* SINGIN', DON'T WORRY *

* ABOUT A THING *

WE'RE GOING TO THE WATER SLIDES.

THERE'S NOTHING TO DO ON THE BEACH.

THERE'S PLENTY TO DO ON THE BEACH, GUYS.

Woman: YEAH, ESPECIALLY IF YOU LIKE

TO SIT AROUND WATCHING GIRLS THROUGH BINOCULARS

LIKE SOME PERVERT.

THE BOYS AREN'T AT THAT STAGE YET,

BUT THEY REALLY LIKE THEIR WATER SLIDES.

GUYS, COME ON. I WAS ON THE WATER SLIDES

WITH YOU FOR 4 HOURS THIS MORNING.

COME ON, DAD!

Woman: ALL RIGHT, I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.

YOU SIT HERE ON THE BEACH,

THE KIDS WILL GO TO THE SLIDES,

AND I'LL KEEP WATCH ON THEM FROM THE MAYAN TEMPLE BAR.

THAT WAY, WE'RE ALL HAPPY. DEAL?

DEAL. Woman: ALL RIGHT.

WE'LL MEET BACK AT THE ROOM NO LATER THAN 6:00.

OK.

BYE! HAVE FUN!

* SINGIN', DON'T WORRY *

* ABOUT A THING *

* 'CAUSE EVERY LITTLE THING *

* DON'T WORRY *

* ABOUT A THING *

* 'CAUSE EVERY LITTLE THING *

THANKS.

YEAH, I SAW THE SCAR.

BY BINOCULARS.

SO MY KIDS COULD WATCH THE DOLPHINS, OK?

I WAS GIRL WATCHING. SO WHAT?

THE COPS ALL OVER THE WORLD

ARE LOOKING FOR EDDIE MEYERS,

AND I'M THE ONE WHO GOT LUCKY.

MAC, YOU GOTTA DO ME A FAVOR, OK?

ON THE COVER SHEET OF THE FAX WRITE

"HOLD AT FRONT DESK.

DO NOT DELIVER TO THE ROOM."

IN BIG LETTERS, OK?

I DON'T WANT LUCY SEEING IT AND FREAKING OUT.

OK. YEAH, ATLANTIS?

YOU KIDDING ME? IT'S GREAT.

THEY GOT THESE UNDERWATER TUNNELS

WHERE YOU WALK TO DINNER.

THERE'S A MAYAN TEMPLE WITH A WATER SLIDE.

MY KIDS AND I HAVE BEEN SNORKELING.

YEAH, LUCY AND THE BOYS ARE HAVING A GREAT TIME.

MY CREDIT CARDS ARE MAXED OUT,

BUT I'M TELLING MYSELF

IT'S GONNA BE WORTH EVERY PENNY.

OK. THANKS.

THIS GUY?

OK, THANK YOU.

Boy: B-4. NO, B-5.

FIRE. HIT OR MISS?

HIT.

[IMITATES EXPLOSION]

[BATTLESHIP GAME BEEPS]

Boy: B-12.

Second boy: HIT.

WHAT?

[SCOFFS] YOU SON OF A BITCH.

YOU'RE WORKING.

[GAME BEEPING]

JAY--

GUYS, COULD YOU GO GET US SOME ICE?

THANKS.

THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE OUR VACATION,

BUT INSTEAD, TURNS OUT

YOU CAME HERE LOOKING FOR SOME GUY, UH...

"EDDIE MEYERS, ALIAS THIS, THAT, AND THE OTHER THING."

OH, AND THIS I LIKE. YEAH, THIS IS GREAT.

IN BIG LETTERS ACROSS THE FRONT,

"HOLD AT FRONT. DO NOT DELIVER TO ROOM."

LOOK, I DIDN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW.

YEAH, WELL, TOO BAD.

GUESS THEY DIDN'T WANT TO MISS OUT ON A TIP.

WELL, IT'S NOT LIKE I CAME HERE

LOOKING FOR EDDIE MEYERS.

OH, SO IT'S JUST A COINCIDENCE

WE JUST HAPPEN TO COME TO NASSAU--

LOOK, LOOK, LOOK. SEE THIS YACHT?

IT WAS RIGHT OUT IN FRONT OF US

ON THE BEACH YESTERDAY MORNING.

YEAH. SO?

WELL, SO I RECOGNIZED THE GUY. EDDIE MEYERS.

LOOK...

EDDIE MEYERS WAS GOING TO BE THE KEY WITNESS

IN WHAT WAS GONNA BE

THE BIGGEST MONEY LAUNDERING TRIAL

IN NEW YORK.

AND RIGHT BEFORE THE TRIAL, HE DISAPPEARS.

THAT WAS 4 YEARS AGO, AND THERE HASN'T BEEN

A SIGHTING UNTIL YESTERDAY, HE'S STANDING IN FRONT OF ME!

AND YOU COULDN'T TELL ME THIS BECAUSE?

[BANGING ON DOOR]

COMING!

Boy: DAD! DAD! THE DOOR'S LOCKED!

COME ON, OPEN UP.

HEY, ALL RIGHT. HANG ON.

[DUMPS ICE IN SINK]

GO GET SOME MORE.

Boy: HE'S GOT A FEVER.

Mike: I WAS GONNA TELL YOU ABOUT IT TONIGHT

IF THE YACHT WAS STILL HERE.

I FIGURED YOU AND THE KIDS WOULD GO TO THE WATER SLIDES,

I'D TAKE A LOOK AROUND.

A GUY LIKE THAT COULD BE ANYWHERE BY NOW.

IS THAT IT?

YES, THAT'S IT.

THAT'S THE WHOLE STORY. THERE'S NO WAY--

NO. IS THAT IT?

THE YACHT WITH THE CURVED WINDOWS.

THEY KIND OF LOOK LIKE CAT'S EYES WINKING AT YOU?

LET'S GO TO WORK.

[BICYCLE BELL RINGS]

Street vendor: $2.00.

THAT'S A GOOD PRICE.

Woman: BYE!

Second woman: BYE! SEE YOU!

HEY, LUCE, IT'S ME.

UM, OK, YOU MUST NOT BE IN THE ROOM.

UM...SORRY ABOUT TODAY.

I HOPE YOU AND THE KIDS HAD DINNER

AND DIDN'T WAIT FOR ME.

YOU'D THINK THIS GUY'D BE TIRED.

HE'S STILL GOING-- I GOTTA GO.

I'LL SEE YOU LATER. BYE-BYE.

[LIVE BAND PLAYING]

[ALL LAUGHING]

JUDY, IF YOU WOULD?

THANK YOU, JUDY.

CHECK FOR TABLE 20.

[ALL LAUGHING]

OH, THANKS. ON THE CARD...

Eddie: MICHELLE SAYS, THE GUY

LOOKS LIKE A CHEVROLET TRUCK.

[ALL LAUGHING]

EXCUSE ME? I'M VERY SORRY TO INTERRUPT.

I THINK THAT MY CREDIT CARD MAY HAVE GOT PUT IN THERE.

OH.

"MICHAEL SANTINI?"

SANTINI, THAT'S ME.

AND YOU'RE QUITE SURE YOU DON'T WANT TO BUY

OUR DRINKS, MR. SANTINI?

ON THAT? I'LL BE LUCKY IF THERE'S ROOM FOR MY BEER.

THANK YOU.

VERY SORRY ABOUT THAT.

WHERE DO THEY FIND THOSE SHIRTS?

[WOMEN CHUCKLING]

Mike: CAPTAIN MacNAMARA, PLEASE?

DETECTIVE SANTINI. SANTINI.

I'M SORRY. IT'S NOISY AS HELL IN HERE.

MAC!

REALLY? HOT DAMN.

I KNEW IT WAS HIM.

MMM. LISTEN, MAC...

I'D REALLY LIKE TO STAY INVOLVED IN THIS.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

HOW CAN YOU NOT BE INVOLVED? IT'S YOUR CASE!

SO JUST LIKE THAT THE FBI SHUTS US OUT?

OK, MAC, I KNOW.

YOU KNOW WHAT? THIS POLITICAL CRAP,

IT NEVER CEASES TO AMAZE ME.

[MARCHING BAND PLAYING]

Man: HE IS KNOWN TO US AS LEON ROSS,

BUT IDENTIFIED BY A FINGERPRINT

OBTAINED BY DETECTIVE SANTINI

AS EDDIE MEYERS.

NOW FOR THE 2 WOMEN: THIS ONE IS KNOWN

AS ANGELINA ROSS OR MRS. LEON ROSS,

BUT SHE ENTERED NASSAU ON A U.S. PASSPORT

BEARING THE NAME OF HELEN DOWD.

SHE LIVES WITH MEYERS

AT THE HOUSE ON BIG HILL ROAD.

THIS ONE CARRIES A BRITISH PASSPORT

UNDER THE NAME OF SUZANNA FORD.

NOW, SHE RUNS THE JEWELRY STORE

AND OTHER BUSINESS INTERESTS FOR MEYERS,

BUT THEIR RELATIONSHIP MAY BE MORE THAN JUST BUSINESS.

AS THE OWNERS OF HER...

WHERE DO YOU WANT TO BE, MIKE?

I GET TO COME ALONG?

LOOK, I KNOW THAT YOU, UH--

YOU WANTED TO STAY INVOLVED WITH THIS.

YOU HAD EVERY RIGHT TO.

IT'S NOT JUST ME THEY'RE CUTTING OUT.

IT'S THE WHOLE N.Y.P.D.

TRUST ME, THE FBI's NOT THE PROBLEM HERE.

IT'S OVER OUR HEADS.

WELL, OF COURSE, MY DARLING.

YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND.

PARTICULARLY WHEN YOU'RE WEARING CERISE.

THANK YOU, EVA. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

WELL, WHAT'S WRONG WITH A COUPLE OF MONTHS

IN BARBADOS?

OR PERHAPS YOU CAN OPEN A CAYMAN FIRST

IF THAT'S YOUR MAJESTY'S PLEASURE.

SUZANNA, CALL MY LAWYER, WILL YOU?

AND CALL RON CAINE IN NEW YORK.

TELL HIM TO GET HIS ASS DOWN HERE.

LET'S SEE IF HE CAN EARN

THAT $500 AN HOUR FOR A CHANGE.

CALL HIM RIGHT AWAY.

NO, OF COURSE I'M NOT SURE, BUT IF I'M WRONG,

HE CAN ALWAYS FLY BACK.

WHAT?

THEY'RE COMING.

[TIRES SCREECHING]

[SIRENS]

Police dispatcher: ECHO BASE, ECHO BASE!

ECHO 4-6, YOU'RE GO.

WE'RE IN POSITION.

Dispatcher: ECHO BASE, ECHO 4-6, GO.

CAN I HELP YOU?

[TIRES SCREECHING]

[HORN HONKING]

[HORN HONKING]

BUGGER.

GOOD MORNING.

WELL, WELL, GEORGE ADAMS.

LONG TIME, NO SEE.

HELLO, EDDIE.

WAIT. I KNOW YOU.

AT THE CLUB, THE CREDIT CARDS.

THAT'S HOW YOU GOT MY FINGERPRINTS,

ISN'T IT?

PRETTY SLICK.

THANKS.

WELL, TOO BAD YOU GOT ME.

I LOVE IT HERE.

[THUNDER]

Mike: GUYS, I'M GOING!

COME SAY GOOD-BYE! ALL RIGHT, I'M OFF.

FREEZE!

HEY, YOU GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK.

DID WE SCARE YOU?

GET INSIDE. GO ON.

Lucy: MIKE, MAC'S ON THE PHONE. IT'S URGENT.

LOOK AT YOU GUYS! YOU'RE SOAKED!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUTSIDE?

Boy: WE WERE RIGHT BY THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE.

Lucy: YEAH, WELL, ANYWHERE IT'S RAINING...

MAC?

Lucy: YOU GUYS KNOW THAT.

YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY, DON'T YOU?

COME ON, BE QUIET. YOUR DAD'S ON THE PHONE.

WELL, DO YOU WANT ME TO GO STRAIGHT THERE?

HALF-HOUR, 45 MINUTES.

CAN HE GIVE ME ANY KIND OF A HEADS-UP?

ALL RIGHT, GO DRY UP.

WELL, IF YOU CAN'T, YOU CAN'T.

I'LL SEE YOU THERE.

[BEEPS]

MAC WANTS ME TO MEET HIM

AT THE U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.

WHY? YOU IN TROUBLE?

I DON'T KNOW.

HE ASKED ME TO PACK AN OVERNIGHT BAG.

WHAT?

Mike: HEY, MAC.

Mac: MIKE.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

YOU KNOW GEORGE ADAMS, FBI?

GOOD SEEING YOU AGAIN.

George: HOW ARE YOU, MIKE?

GENTLEMEN.

DETECTIVE SANTINI, MY NAME IS A. DANIEL COLE,

ASSISTANT UNITED STATES ATTORNEY.

I'D LIKE TO ASK YOU A FEW QUESTIONS,

AND PLEASE CONSIDER YOUR ANSWERS CAREFULLY,

BECAUSE WE WILL ASK YOU TO SIGN A SWORN STATEMENT

CONFIRMING THEM.

ARE YOU AGREEABLE TO THAT?

YEAH, THAT'S FINE.

YOU SPOKE TO EDDIE MEYERS

WHEN YOU USED YOUR CREDIT CARD

TO GET HIS FINGERPRINTS,

AND MEYERS EXCHANGED WORDS WITH YOU

AFTER HE WAS ARRESTED.

OTHER THAN THOSE 2 ENCOUNTERS,

HAVE YOU EVER HAD ANY COMMUNICATION

WITH EDDIE MEYERS?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY COMMUNICATION?

I HAD HIM IN THE POCKET FOR--

I'M NOT ASKING ABOUT SURVEILLANCE.

HAVE YOU EVER SPOKEN TO HIM?

HAVE YOU EVER WRITTEN TO HIM

OR HIM TO YOU?

HAS MEYERS EVER BEEN IN ANY KIND OF COMMUNICATION

WITH YOU OTHER THAN THOSE 2 INCIDENTS

THAT I JUST MENTIONED?

NO.

HAS ANY LAWYER REPRESENTING MEYERS

EVER ATTEMPTED TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU

TO YOUR KNOWLEDGE?

NO.

HAS ANY PERSON WHATSOEVER COMMUNICATED WITH YOU

ABOUT OR ON BEHALF OF EDDIE MEYERS?

NO.

AND ARE YOU WILLING TO SIGN A STATEMENT

TO THAT EFFECT UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY?

YES. NOW WOULD YOU MIND TELLING ME--

WELCOME ABOARD. I'LL LEAVE IT TO AGENT ADAMS

AND CAPTAIN MacNAMARA TO EXPLAIN YOUR DUTIES.

[DOOR OPENS]

HEY, IS HE A PIECE--

WE'VE GOT A LONG DRIVE. LET'S TALK IN THE CAR.

I GOTTA GO UPSTAIRS FOR A SECOND.

YOU GUYS GO AHEAD.

I'LL MEET YOU AT THE CAR.

AS FBI AGENTS GO, HE'S A PRETTY DECENT GUY.

HE DIDN'T HAVE TO GO UPSTAIRS.

HE JUST WANTED TO GIVE US SOME TIME

TO TALK IN PRIVATE.

MICHAEL, HOW THE HELL ARE YOU?

LISTEN, IS IT JUST ME, OR DOES A. DANIEL--

COLE GOT A STICK UP HIS ASS?

TRUST ME, IT'S NOT JUST YOU.

EVEN THE FBI GUYS CALL HIM "A-HOLE COLE."

GREAT.

SO WELCOME ABOARD TO WHAT?

EDDIE MEYERS IS BACK

IN THE WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAM.

HE'S COOPERATING IN EXCHANGE

FOR BEING TREATED LIKE A PRINCE.

YOU GOT THE JOB OF INTERROGATING HIM.

WHY ME?

HE ASKED FOR YOU.

COLE?

NO, MEYERS.

EDDIE MEYERS ASKED FOR ME?

YEAH, AND A GOOD THING FOR US HE DID.

THIS WAS SHAPING UP TO BE

A STRICTLY FEDERAL TASK FORCE.

MEYERS ASKS FOR YOU,

SUDDENLY IT'S A JOINT TASK FORCE AGAIN.

YOU GOT ANY IDEA

WHY MEYERS WOULD ASK FOR ME?

MICHAEL...

I WAS HOPING YOU'D BE ABLE TO TELL ME.

THIS IS THE FILE ON EDDIE MEYERS.

THIS ONE'S ON THE MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE.

THIS ONE'S ON PRESTON DRAI.

PRESTON DRAI USED MURDER

AND INTIMIDATION TO TAKE OVER THE--

MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE.

I KNOW. I HAVEN'T BEEN LIVING IN A CAVE.

HE TURNED IT INTO THE BIGGEST

MONEY LAUNDERING ORGANIZATION

IN NEW YORK HISTORY.

IN U.S. HISTORY.

THEY HAD CLIENTS ALL OVER THE WORLD--

THE RUSSIAN MOB, THE JAPANESE YAKUZA.

YEAH, AND MEYERS WAS THE GUY

SETTING UP THE DEALS.

THAT'S WHY IT WAS SO DEVASTATING

WHEN HE ESCAPED,

AND THAT'S WHY NOW WE'RE GIVING HIM

ANYTHING HE WANTS TO KEEP HIM HAPPY.

INCLUDING ME.

INCLUDING YOU.

YOU'RE THE POINT MAN. YOU'LL BE IN THE BACKGROUND.

WE'LL GIVE YOU A LIST OF QUESTIONS TO ASK.

WE'LL BE RECORDING THE ANSWERS.

YOU WON'T EVEN HAVE TO TAKE NOTES.

ONE THING THAT WON'T BE ON THE LIST OF QUESTIONS,

BUT KEEP IT IN THE BACK OF YOUR MIND,

EDDIE'S INSURANCE POLICY.

YOU KNOW WHAT A ZIP DISK IS?

YEAH, IT'S A COMPUTER DISK

THAT HOLDS 20 TIMES MORE THAN A FLOPPY.

EXACTLY. WHEN EDDIE WAS ARRESTED,

HE MANAGED TO REFORMAT HIS HARD DRIVE.

ALL THE EVIDENCE ON IT WAS DESTROYED.

Mac: BUT THE COMPUTER HAD A ZIP DRIVE.

RUMOR HAS IT EDDIE'S GOT A ZIP DISK SOMEWHERE,

STASHED IN A SAFE-DEPOSIT BOX.

GOOD INSURANCE POLICY.

IF HE GETS KILLED, GOES TO THE COPS.

Mac: THAT'S THE STORY.

BUT IF IT'S TRUE,

THAT'S WHAT WE WANT MOST OF ALL.

YOU MUST BE MIKE SANTINI.

JOAN THOMAS.

HOW ARE YOU DOING?

WELCOME TO THE WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAM.

NICE PLACE.

YEAH, NOT BAD FOR A GOVERNMENT WORKER.

USED TO BELONG TO NICKY "THE NOSE" PROFACCI.

GOT SEIZED UNDER RICO.

[MONITOR BEEPS]

BASICALLY, YOU CAN QUESTION HIM

ANYWHERE YOU WANT, AND WE'LL GET IT ON TAPE.

HIS BEDROOM, THE LIVING ROOM,

THE KITCHEN--AH!

THERE'S THE MAN HIMSELF.

Joan: HE'S ONE PAIN IN THE ASS, THIS GUY.

Mac: WHAT NOW?

WHEN YOU SAY TUNA, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF?

A CAN OF TUNA, RIGHT?

BUT, NO, IT'S GOTTA BE FRESH TUNA.

ONLY, WE GOT HIM THE WRONG FRESH TUNA.

IT'S GOTTA BE FRESH AHI TUNA.

WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY.

Joan: BESIDES GET THE DAMN AHI, I KNOW.

NICK'S OUT SHOPPING AS WE SPEAK.

[KNOCKS]

Eddie: COME IN.

GOOD MORNING.

HOW YOU DOING?

I HAVE A COUPLE OF THINGS--

WE HAVEN'T BEEN FORMERLY INTRODUCED.

I'M EDDIE MEYERS.

DETECTIVE SANTINI.

WELL, SIT DOWN. TAKE IT EASY.

I'VE A NUMBER OF QUESTIONS HERE--

DO YOU GO BY MICHAEL OR MIKE?

MIKE.

WELL, MIKE...

RELAX.

LOOSEN YOUR TIE. YOU LOOK...

KIND OF UNCOMFORTABLE.

I'M FINE.

YOU LOOKED MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE IN NASSAU,

I HAVE TO SAY.

I WAS ON VACATION IN NASSAU.

MM, WEARING SHORTS AND T-SHIRT, RIGHT?

YES.

DO YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION--

DID YOU EVER ASK YOURSELF WHY YOU'RE MORE COMFORTABLE

IN SHORTS AND A T-SHIRT?

EVERYBODY'S MORE COMFORTABLE

IN SHORTS AND A T-SHIRT.

OH, NO. MIKE, MIKE,

THAT'S SO WRONG.

YOU SEE, I'M COMFORTABLE IN EVERYTHING THAT I WEAR.

BUT YOU'RE NOT, BECAUSE WHAT YOU'RE WEARING IS CRAP.

EXCUSE ME?

A T-SHIRT IS MOST LIKELY 100% COTTON.

THE SHIRT YOU'RE WEARING IS 50% AT BEST.

WHEN YOU WEAR A T-SHIRT, THE COLLAR FITS YOU.

THAT COLLAR DOESN'T FIT.

IT'S TOO TIGHT.

SO NOT ONLY IS THE TIE

NOT THE BEST CHOICE FOR THE JACKET,

IT'S ALSO CHOKING YOU.

AND THE JACKET, WELL...

NO ONE EVER FELT COMFORTABLE

IN A JACKET LIKE THAT.

YOU CALLED ME OUT HERE JUST TO INSULT MY CLOTHES?

OH, NO. NO, NOT AT ALL.

WHY DID YOU ASK FOR ME?

WELL, YOU SEEMED LIKE A NICE ENOUGH GUY.

I DON'T NEED SMOKE BLOWN UP MY ASS.

[CHUCKLES] BUT UNDERNEATH THE SURFACE,

THERE'S QUITE A TEMPER LURKING THERE.

YOU STILL HAVEN'T ANSWERED MY QUESTION.

SURE, I DID. YOU SEEMED LIKE--

A NICE GUY, YEAH. EXCUSE ME.

[LOCK BUZZES]

SEE THAT?

Mac: YEAH.

WE WERE WATCHING.

IT'S A WASTE OF TIME.

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HE'S DOING.

HE'S JUST HERE TO PLAY GAMES.

WHY DON'T WE STEP OUTSIDE?

HEH. CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS GUY?

WHAT A PIECE OF--

MIKE, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU.

HOW LONG YOU BEEN BACK IN SOFT CLOTHES?

A YEAR.

SO YOU WERE, UH,

BACK IN THE BAG FOR WHAT, 4 YEARS?

5.

THAT'S A TOUGH BREAK,

BUT A LOT OF US STOOD BY YOU.

YEAH.

AND I APPRECIATE THAT.

YEAH? BUT YOU DON'T SEE THIS

AS YOUR TICKET BACK TO THE FAST TRACK?

THIS GUY?

I DON'T SEE THIS GUY AS MY TICKET ANYWHERE.

HE JUST WANTS TO TOY WITH ME.

HE WANTS TO TOY WITH YOU, FINE!

YOU TOY WITH HIM!

HE WANTS TO USE YOU, GOOD. YOU USE HIM!

YOU GOT 5 YEARS TO MAKE UP FOR.

YOU'D BETTER BE READY TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[LOCK BUZZES]

[LOCK BUZZES]

OK, LET'S GET A FEW THINGS STRAIGHT.

EDDIE?

IS THAT YOU, MIKE?

I'M UPSTAIRS.

EDDIE?

IN HERE.

MIKE...

I'M SORRY IF I GOT OFF ON THE WRONG FOOT WITH YOU.

I DIDN'T MEAN TO BE OFFENSIVE.

NO PROBLEM.

HERE, FEEL THIS.

THAT'S NICE.

TRY IT ON.

OH, COME ON. INDULGE ME.

SEE WHAT I MEAN?

IT'S NICE. FEELS LIKE NOTHING.

SEE, I WASN'T SAYING YOUR JACKET IS UGLY.

FROM 20 FEET AWAY, IT LOOKS FINE,

BUT, UH...

THIS ONE FEELS BETTER. IT'S COMFORTABLE.

THAT'S ALL I WAS TRYING TO SAY DOWNSTAIRS.

THANKS FOR SHOWING ME.

YOU READY TO GET TO WORK?

ABSOLUTELY.

HAVE YOU EVER OBSERVED PRESTON DRAI

WITH VICTOR CHOL--

CHOLIEMSKI? NO, NEVER.

NOW, THAT IS A STUPID QUESTION.

DID YOU EVER OBSERVE PRESTON DRAI--

HOLD ON, HOLD ON. MIKE...COME ON.

LET'S TRY AND FORGET ABOUT THE CAMERAS

ALL OVER THE PLACE.

YOUR BOSS IS WATCHING YOUR EVERY MOVE

AND TAKING NOTES AND JUDGING YOU.

THANK YOU.

I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER ALREADY.

WELL, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO GET USED TO IT

SOONER OR LATER.

AND SOONER IS BETTER, BECAUSE UNTIL YOU DO,

WE ARE WASTING OUR TIME HERE.

WHY IS THAT?

WHEN I SAID, "THAT WAS A STUPID QUESTION,"

WHAT CROSSED YOUR MIND?

I THOUGHT IF I'M SO STUPID,

HOW COME YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S LOCKED UP?

OH, AREN'T YOU THE TOUCHY ONE?

LOOK, I WASN'T SAYING YOU'RE STUPID, MIKE.

I KNOW THE QUESTION COMES FROM THE GENIUSES

FROM BEHIND THE CURTAIN.

ALL RIGHT, SO WHY IS THE QUESTION STUPID?

I'VE READ THE FILE. VICTOR WHAT'S HIS FACE

IS THE HEAD OF THE RUSSIAN MOB

THAT DID THE STRONG-ARM WORK FOR DRAI.

SO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW OUR BUSINESS WORKED?

WELL, I UNDERSTAND MONEY LAUNDERING

WHEN IT'S A LOAN SHARK

USING A DRY CLEANER IN QUEENS,

BUT INTERNATIONAL BANKING ISN'T EXACTLY MY BEAT.

Eddie: THEN LISTEN CAREFULLY.

THE WHOLE POINT ABOUT MONEY LAUNDERING IS

TO TAKE DIRTY MONEY AND PUT IT THROUGH

SUCH A COMPLICATED SERIES OF TRANSACTIONS

THAT NOT EVEN AN EXPERT CAN TELL

WHERE IT CAME FROM IN THE END.

BUT THE PROBLEM IS

NO MATTER HOW SOPHISTICATED WE GET,

THE BANKS HAVE SO MANY REPORTING REQUIREMENTS,

IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO GET AWAY

WITH ANY ONE TECHNIQUE FOR ANY LENGTH OF TIME.

UNLESS YOU OWN THE BANK.

EXACTLY.

NOW, PRESTON DRAI GETS CONTROL

OF THE MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE.

NOW HE CAN GUARANTEE THAT THE MONEY LAUNDERING

WILL WORK BECAUSE WE CAN MANIPULATE

WHAT GETS REPORTED.

AND DRAI SENDS YOU AROUND THE WORLD

DRUMMING UP BUSINESS.

RIGHT.

NOW, ONE OF MY STOPS IS MOSCOW.

THE SHOLTZNETSKYA,

A PART OF THE SO-CALLED RUSSIAN MAFIA.

THEY BECOME ONE OF OUR BIGGEST CLIENTS.

NOW VICTOR CHOLIEMSKI,

HE WORKS FOR SHOLTZNETSKYA.

HE'S ONE OF THEIR MEN IN NEW YORK.

WELL, IF DRAI NEEDS SOME MUSCLE,

HE'S NOT GONNA CALL VICTOR,

HE'S GONNA CALL THE GUY IN MOSCOW.

EXACTLY. NOW, THAT IS WHY IT IS A STUPID QUESTION.

VICTOR CHOLIEMSKI NEVER EVEN MET PRESTON DRAI.

SO THE REAL QUESTION IS:

HOW DO WE PUT THESE TWO GUYS TOGETHER?

FINALLY, THE RIGHT QUESTION.

NOW...

THESE ARE MY RECORDS?

YEAH.

LET'S HAVE A LOOK AT THOSE.

YOU OK?

YEAH, I JUST CAME OUT TO GET SOME AIR.

THAT STUFF'S MAKING MY HEAD SWIM.

FED WIRE TRANSFERS, OVERNIGHT FLOATS.

YOU'RE PICKIN' IT UP FAST.

YEAH, FOR A GUY WHO CAN BARELY DO HIS TAXES.

NO, SERIOUSLY,

YOU'RE DOIN' WELL IN THERE.

SO MUCH SO THAT ADAMS AND I

HAVE DECIDED TO GO BACK TO NEW YORK,

AND TAKE THAT AS A VOTE OF CONFIDENCE.

GOOD.

DON'T WORRY... JOAN AND THE MARSHALS'LL

TAKE GOOD CARE OF YA.

HEY, DOES IT BOTHER THEM THAT I EAT WITH EDDIE

INSTEAD OF THEM? HE KEEPS INVITING ME.

WHAT, ARE YA KIDDIN'? I'D THINK YOU WERE CRAZY

IF YOU HAD PIZZA WITH THEM

INSTEAD OF FINE FOOD AND WINE WITH EDDIE.

BESIDES, THEY KNOW

YOU'RE JUST DOIN' YOUR JOB.

OK.

LOOK, UH, ONE MORE PIECE OF ADVICE:

DON'T FORGET THE DISK.

YOU'RE DOIN' A GOOD JOB IN THERE,

BUT THE DISK,

IT'LL PUT YOU BACK IN THE BIG TIME.

I THINK THIS SHOULD DO IT. I'M GONNA BE BACK EVERY WEEKEND.

YOU MIGHT NEED SOCKS.

YEAH.

UNDERWEAR.

YOU FORGOT YOUR UNDERWEAR?

I DIDN'T FORGET MY UNDERWEAR. MOMMY REMEMBERED.

THAT'S WHY WE ALWAYS LISTEN TO MOMMY.

THANKS FOR BEIN' SO COOL ABOUT THIS.

WELL, I DON'T REALLY HAVE A CHOICE, DO I?

Mike: EDDIE...EDDIE, COME ON, THOUGH.

IT'S LUNCH, AND I'M WORKIN',

AND SO ARE YOU, BY THE WAY.

JUST A TASTE.

MMM.

IT'S GOOD. MARSALT?

MEURSAULT. IT'S A WHITE BURGUNDY.

YEAH, IT'S LIKE THE ONE WE HAD THE OTHER NIGHT.

EXACTLY. THE MONTRACHET.

THAT'S A LITTLE MORE DELICATE,

AND I THOUGHT THE MEURSAULT

WOULD GO BETTER WITH THE ESCOLAR.

HEY, YOU EVER GET THE URGE

JUST TO HAVE A BEER AND A HOT DOG?

OH, MIKE, YOU'RE NOT GETTING SICK

OF MY COOKING ALREADY, ARE YOU?

NO, I'M NOT SAYIN' THAT. IT JUST THIS SEEMS LIKE

AN AWFUL LOT TO GO THROUGH ALL THE TIME--

DIFFERENT SILVERWARE FOR DIFFERENT COURSES

AND CLOTH NAPKINS.

OH, IT'S JUST A FEW EXTRA THINGS IN THE DISHWASHER,

AND THE NAPKINS GO IN THE WASH.

THEN YOU GOTTA IRON 'EM.

IT TAKES 30 SECONDS.

IT'S A SMALL PRICE TO PAY FOR AN ELEGANT LIFE.

BESIDES, IT'S BETTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

I GIVE UP.

JOAN. JOAN, HOW NICE TO SEE YOU.

WON'T YOU JOIN US?

GOT A MINUTE?

OH, JOAN, I THINK YOU AND I

NEED MORE LIKE AN HOUR, DON'T WE?

MIKE.

[DOOR CLOSES]

GEORGE AND MAC JUST CALLED.

YOUR WIFE GOT AN ANONYMOUS PHONE CALL 20 MINUTES AGO.

THE CALLER SAID HE HAD A MESSAGE FOR EDDIE MEYERS,

THAT THEY KNOW HE'S HERE, AND TO TELL HIM HE'S A DEAD MAN.

SHE'S NOT AT HOME.

MAC SENT A SQUAD CAR TO TAKE HER TO THE SECOND PRECINCT.

I GOT A MARSHAL ON THE WAY.

WE GOT A WITNESS PROTECTION HOUSE IN GREAT--

YOU'RE RELOCATING MY FAMILY?

JUST A PRECAUTION,

BUT THE CALLER KNEW

THAT A THREAT DELIVERED TO YOUR WIFE WOULD GET TO EDDIE.

YEAH, POTENTIALLY THEY KIDNAP MY WIFE AND KIDS

AND FORCE ME TO TELL 'EM WHERE EDDIE IS.

THAT'S HIGHLY REMOTE, VERY UNLIKELY,

BUT WE'LL ALL SLEEP BETTER KNOWING THAT CAN'T HAPPEN.

NICK WILL DRIVE YOU OUT TO LONG ISLAND.

YOU SHOULD GET THERE JUST AFTER THEY DO.

LISTEN, THEY'RE NOT GONNA BE SAFE EVEN AT THIS PLACE

IN LONG ISLAND UNTIL YOU FIGURE OUT WHO THE LEAK IS.

YES, THEY WILL,

BECAUSE WE'RE NOT TELLING ANYONE THE NEW LOCATION,

NOT EVEN GEORGE OR MAC.

ONLY THE U.S. MARSHAL SERVICE WILL KNOW WHERE THEY ARE,

AND WE'VE NEVER HAD A LEAK

IN THE WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAM. NEVER.

GOOD LUCK, MIKE.

THANKS, NICK.

DAD!

HEY, GUYS.

DAD, IT'S AWESOME. WAIT TILL YOU SEE OUR ROOMS.

AND THERE'S A POOL! COME SEE!

I DON'T THINK WE'RE GONNA BE HERE

LONG ENOUGH TO USE THE POOL.

I'M SORRY.

OH, IT'S OK.

I WAS UPSET BEFORE, BUT I'M FINE NOW.

I CAN COME BACK FOR THIS.

OH, I'M SORRY, HONEY. THIS IS STEVE.

HE DROVE US OVER HERE.

EXCUSE ME, I DON'T KNOW YOUR LAST NAME.

STEVE HARRIS. DEPUTY U.S. MARSHAL.

MIKE SANTINI. THANK YOU.

UH, W-WE'RE DOING A LIST.

HE'S GONNA BRING OUR STUFF FROM THE OTHER HOUSE.

GOOD.

I'LL LEAVE YOU GUYS ALONE NOW.

WE DON'T KNOW HOW IT COULDA HAPPENED.

WELL, THEY KEEP SAYING WE'RE NOT IN ANY DANGER,

BUT IF WE'RE NOT,

THEN WHY DO THEY WANT US TO LIVE HERE?

WELL, IT'S 99% THAT WE'RE SAFE AT HOME,

BUT IT'S 1,000% WE'RE SAFE HERE.

WELL, I MEAN, EVERYBODY'S BEEN VERY NICE,

AND THE HOUSE IS WONDERFUL, SO...WE'LL BE FINE.

GOOD.

DON'T WORRY. IT WON'T BE FOREVER.

Eddie: OH, POOR MIKE.

YOU'VE HAD A TOUGH COUPLE OF DAYS.

YEAH...

BUT I HATED LEAVIN' 'EM.

YOU KNOW, STRANGE PLACE.

BUT I THOUGHT LUCY'D FREAK.

SO FAR, SHE'S OK.

GOOD. GOOD.

[SIGHS]

WHY WOULD THEY WANNA KILL YOU NOW?

OH, HELL, THEY ALWAYS WANNA KILL ME.

YEAH, BUT, YOU KNOW,

THIS TIME, IT SHOULD BE DIFFERENT, RIGHT?

WITH YOUR INSURANCE POLICY?

INSURANCE POLICY?

THE DISK.

AHH, NOW I SEE YOUR PLAN.

YOU WANT TO GET ME DRUNK

SO I WILL TALK ABOUT THE DISK.

WELL, YOU KNOW, MIKE,

IT'S GOOD TO SEE

A DEDICATED COP AT WORK,

WILLING TO RISK A HANGOVER

IN THE LINE OF DUTY.

MORE THAN A RISK AT THIS POINT.

SO AM I RIGHT...

ABOUT THE ZIP DISK?

SO YOU'RE NOT THAT DRUNK.

WELL, YOU'RE RIGHT UP TO A POINT.

THEY THINK I'VE GOT A DISK

THAT COULD INCRIMINATE

EVERYONE INVOLVED WITH PRESTON DRAI

AND THE MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE,

AND THEY BELIEVE IT'LL GO TO THE COPS

IF I GET KILLED.

THE TRUTH IS,

IT'S NOT THAT MUCH OF AN INSURANCE POLICY.

THEY KNOW I'LL TESTIFY

AGAINST PRESTON DRAI ANYWAY,

SO THERE'S NO REASON NOT TO KILL ME.

THEN WHY NOT GIVE US THE DISK?

OH, I CAN THINK OF A REASON.

LET'S PRETEND FOR A SECOND

THAT I WAS SMART ENOUGH TO MAKE A DISK

AND HIDE IT AWAY IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

IN A SAFE-DEPOSIT BOX.

I DON'T THINK THAT'S TOO MUCH OF A STRETCH.

WELL, THEN...

LET'S PRETEND THAT I'M EVEN SMARTER,

NOT ONLY MADE SOME INVESTMENTS OVERSEAS,

BUT ALSO KEPT SOME CASH ON HAND

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY.

SHALL WE SAY...

$4 MILLION FOR THE SAKE OF ARGUMENT?

THAT MAKES PERFECT SENSE TO ME.

I KEEP 100 BUCKS IN MY SOCK DRAWER.

NOW THIS IS JUST FICTION, RIGHT?

WE'RE JUST PRETENDING.

BUT WOULDN'T IT BE LOGICAL TO PRETEND

THAT THE EMERGENCY DISK

AND THE EMERGENCY MONEY

WERE IN THE SAME SAFE-DEPOSIT BOX?

THE PRETEND DISK AND PRETEND 4 MILLION

IN THE SAME PRETEND SAFE-DEPOSIT BOX?

YOU WANNA GIVE ME THE NAME OF THE PRETEND BANK?

[LAUGHS] OF COURSE NOT.

[LAUGHS] PRETTY GOOD.

Eddie: OH, COME ON, MIKE. YOU'RE SMART.

YOU MUST BE ABLE TO SEE WHAT MY PROBLEM IS.

SMART ENOUGH OR DRUNK ENOUGH,

BUT YEAH, WE GET THE PRETEND DISK

AND, UH, WE GET YOUR MONEY.

EXACTLY.

SO WHY DOESN'T YOUR LAWYER MAKE YOU A DEAL

WHERE YOU GET TO KEEP YOUR MONEY?

THERE'S A CERTAIN ASSISTANT U.S. ATTORNEY

NAMED A. DANIEL COLE.

NOW, IF THE MONEY

AND THE DISK ACTUALLY EXISTED,

THAT BASTARD WOULD NOT ONLY KEEP THE DISK,

THANK YOU VERY MUCH,

HE WOULD ALSO SCREW ME OUT OF THE MONEY.

HE SCREWED ME BEFORE.

HE'D BE HAPPY TO DO IT AGAIN.

ISN'T THAT RIGHT?

[GLASS CRACKS]

[SIGHS]

SO...HOW BAD WAS THE HANGOVER?

I SHOULD GET THE MEDAL OF VALOR.

WELL, WE'VE SEEN IT ON TAPE, BUT YOU WERE THERE.

YOU WERE... LOOKING IN HIS EYES.

HE SAYS IT'S HYPOTHETICAL, BUT IT'S TRUE, RIGHT?

ABOUT THE DISK AND THE 4 MILLION?

YEAH, I THINK SO.

GOOD WORK, MIKE,

BUT THE NEXT TIME YOU GET DRUNK WITH HIM,

TRY AND GET THE NAME OF THE HYPOTHETICAL BANK, HUH?

WILL DO.

WHAT THE HELL'S HE TALKIN' ABOUT?

DID COLE REALLY TRY

AND SCREW HIM OUT OF HIS MONEY?

HE'S A COOPERATING WITNESS.

I THINK WE CAN SAFELY SAY YES.

HEY, YOU GOT A MINUTE?

SURE. SHOOT.

I KNOW YOU GOT A LOT OF MANPOWER

WORKIN' ON PRESTON DRAI.

YOU KIDDING? WE GOT THE RUSSIAN M.V.D.

LOOKIN' FOR HIM IN MOSCOW.

YEAH, BUT MEYERS DOESN'T THINK HE'S IN MOSCOW.

MEYERS THINKS HE'S HERE.

HAS HE GOT ANYTHING?

NO...

BUT HE'S TAUGHT ME A LOT ABOUT MONEY LAUNDERING.

YOU KNOW WHAT A REVERSE FLIP IS?

NO CLUE.

YOU TAKE A HOUSE, IT'S FOR SALE,

FOR SAY 2 MILLION BUCKS,

AND AN OWNER THAT'S WILLING TO GO ALONG.

HE SELLS YOU THE HOUSE FOR A MILLION,

YOU GIVE HIM ANOTHER MILLION CASH,

AND THEN 6 MONTHS LATER,

YOU GET TO SELL THE HOUSE

FOR ITS FULL MARKET VALUE.

IT'S GOOD FOR HIS TAXES,

AND NOW YOU'VE TURNED A MILLION CASH

YOU CAN'T ACCOUNT FOR

INTO A MILLION IN LEGITIMATE REAL ESTATE.

REVERSE FLIP.

NICE.

PRESTON DRAI IS IN THE MONEY LAUNDERING BUSINESS.

HE CAN'T USE THE BANK ANYMORE.

HE NEEDS A PLACE TO STAY,

SO I SAY WE CHECK NEW YORK

AND WE FIND ANY PLACES SOLD FOR ANYTHING LESS

THAN ITS MARKET VALUE.

WE GOT THE MANPOWER.

THE FEDS ARE PAYIN' FOR IT.

[CHUCKLES]

IT'S WORTH A TRY.

HEY, GEORGE!

MIKE HERE'S GOT AN IDEA THAT'S NOT TOTALLY RIDICULOUS.

I THINK HE'S BUCKIN' FOR...

DETECTIVE SECOND.

THE 3 AREAS BEING:

STRUCTURING, LAYERING, AND PLACEMENT.

THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR STRUCTURING ARE KNOWN AS SMURFS.

Eddie through headset: NOW THIS MAN IS A SMURF.

YOU'LL NEVER FIND DRAI'S WAREHOUSE BY FOLLOWING A SMURF,

BUT ONCE A WEEK,

HE'LL MEET UP WITH A VAN WITH BLACKED-OUT WINDOWS.

STAY WITH THE VAN.

BE CAREFUL, THE VAN WILL LEAD YOU TO THE WAREHOUSE.

Officer: POLICE! FREEZE!

Second officer: HANDS UP! ON YOUR KNEES!

Third officer: LET ME SEE SOME HANDS!

Second officer: GET 'EM UP!

MOTHER OF GOD.

WILL YOU LOOK AT THIS?

CALL DOWNTOWN. WE NEED AN ARMORED CAR.

2 ARMORED CARS!

AND--AND A FORKLIFT.

[BLUES MUSIC PLAYING]

WHY A COP, MIKE?

HUH?

YOU'RE SMART. YOU COULD BE MAKING A LOT MORE MONEY.

WHY BE A COP?

I NEVER WANTED TO DO ANYTHING ELSE.

HAS IT BEEN GOOD TO YOU?

[GRUNTING] IT'S HAD ITS UPS AND DOWNS,

MOSTLY UPS.

[GRUNTING] I WOULDN'T TRADE IT.

YOU KNOW, I WAS THE YOUNGEST COP

IN NEW YORK HISTORY

TO BE MADE DETECTIVE THIRD.

WOW. YOU MUST'VE BEEN A BABY WHEN YOU MADE DETECTIVE FIRST.

IT WORKS THE OTHER WAY.

DETECTIVE THIRD'S THE LOWEST.

DETECTIVE FIRST'S THE HIGHEST.

[BLUES MUSIC PLAYING]

I SEE, AND WHAT ARE YOU NOW?

DETECTIVE THIRD.

OH.

YEAH, HAD A LITTLE GLITCH.

THEY PUT ME BACK IN THE BAG FOR 5 YEARS.

BACK IN THE BAG?

BACK IN UNIFORM.

OH, YES.

I REMEMBER READING ABOUT THIS IN THE NEWSPAPER.

REALLY?

IT WAS ON PAGE 17 IN THE DAILY NEWS.

YOUR PARTNER GOT CAUGHT TAKING A BRIBE

AND GOT FIRED.

THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE AGAINST YOU,

BUT YOU WERE PUNISHED ANYWAY.

LIKE I SAID... UPS AND DOWNS.

YEAH, AND INTERNAL AFFAIRS

HAD YOUR PHONE TAPPED FOR OVER A YEAR.

THAT PART WASN'T IN THE PAPER.

OH, REALLY?

OH, THEN I MUST'VE READ ABOUT IT

IN YOUR FILE.

MY FILE?

YOU READ MY N.Y.P.D. FILE?

SURE. MY LAWYER GOT IT FOR ME.

I HAD TO CHECK YOU OUT.

YOU GOT A RAW DEAL.

OH, SO YOU'RE A HUMANITARIAN?

I WOULDN'T GO THAT FAR.

NEITHER WOULD I.

THE 2 POSSIBILITIES:

IF YOU DIDN'T TAKE THE BRIBE,

THEN CHANCES ARE YOU HAVE THE SAME ATTITUDES

TOWARDS LAW ENFORCEMENT I HAVE.

AND THE SECOND POSSIBILITY...

I DID TAKE A BRIBE

AND WAS JUST BETTER AT COVERING UP

THAN MY PARTNER WAS.

EXACTLY.

AND IF I TOOK A BRIBE THEN,

MAYBE I'D TAKE A BRIBE FROM YOU NOW.

WOULD YOU?

I'VE NEVER TAKEN A BRIBE IN MY LIFE.

MAYBE NOBODY MADE YOU THE RIGHT OFFER BEFORE.

MAYBE YOU WANNA STEP OUTSIDE.

OH, RELAX, MIKE.

I'M NOT INSULTING YOUR HONOR.

ALTHOUGH ONE DAY,

I WOULD LIKE TO STEP OUTSIDE.

IN FACT, THAT MAY BE THE REAL REASON

WHY I ASKED FOR YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE.

OH, YEAH? WHAT?

YOUR FILE SAYS YOU BOX.

THAT'S RIGHT, I BOX,

AND I THINK I'M GONNA GO NOW BEFORE I MISS THE BAG.

[BUZZER]

[DOOR OPENS]

DID YOU HEAR WHAT HE ASKED ME?

[LAUGHS] DO YOU BELIEVE THIS GUY?

WHAT NOW?

YOU COULDN'T HEAR IT?

YOU WEREN'T ASKING HIM QUESTIONS, I HOPE.

BETWEEN THE MACHINES AND THE MUSIC,

WE GET BUPKISS.

OH.

SO WHAT DID HE SAY?

HE'S GOT MY N.Y.P.D. FILE.

[SCOFFS] I CAN'T EVEN READ IT,

AND THIS GUY READS IT COVER TO COVER.

THEY COULDN'T HEAR A THING, COULD THEY?

[BLENDER SHUTS OFF]

WELL--

[BLENDER STARTS]

IT'S GOOD TO KNOW THERE'S SOMEWHERE WE CAN TALK PRIVATELY.

[BLENDER SHUTS OFF]

PROTEIN SHAKE?

EDDIE, I WANNA DO SOME WORK ON THE HEAVY BAG.

RIGHT NOW, WHILE I'M STILL WARMED UP.

[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]

SO, EDDIE...

ALL THAT PERSONAL STUFF,

YOU TRYIN' TO GET A RISE OUTTA ME

JUST TO SEE IF THEY CAN HEAR US?

WELL, I'M GLAD TO KNOW IT, TOO,

'CAUSE I GOT SOME THINGS I WANNA SAY TO YOU.

I'M SICK OF YOU DANCING AROUND AND NEVER SAYING WHAT YOU MEAN.

YOU GOT SOMETHIN' YOU WANNA TELL ME,

TELL ME.

IF YOU GOT SOMETHIN' YOU WANNA ASK, ASK.

OK, MIKE, I'LL BEAR IT IN MIND.

HEY, MIKE,

JUST DROPPED OFF YOUR MAIL FROM THE OTHER HOUSE.

N-NEED A HAND WITH THAT STUFF?

NO, I GOT IT. THANKS.

ARE YOU SURE I CAN'T DO ANYTHING?

YEAH, YOU CAN STAY THERE AND RELAX.

LOOK IN MY JACKET POCKET.

OH, GOOD, YOUR PAYCHECK. I'LL GET THIS IN ON MONDAY.

LOOK A LITTLE CLOSER.

MIKE,

WOW.

YEAH, YA LIKE THAT.

YEAH, THE DEPARTMENT'S BEEN CHARGING THE FEDS

OVERTIME FOR ALL THE COPS IN THE TASK FORCE

EVERY WAKIN' MOMENT I BEEN WITH EDDIE MEYERS.

IF THIS KEEPS UP FOR ANOTHER COUPLE MONTHS,

WE'RE GONNA BE RICH.

COUPLE MONTHS?

A COUPLE OF MONTHS?

COME ON, DON'T GET UPSET.

WELL, TOO LATE. I'M ALREADY UPSET.

I DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD GO ON THIS LONG,

AND NOW YOU'RE SAYING A COUPLE MONTHS

LIKE IT'S NOTHIN' TO YOU.

WE COULD USE THE MONEY.

[KIDS LAUGHING]

DID YOU ASK TO BE EXCUSED?

Boys: CAN WE BE EXCUSED?

OK.

WAIT UP, JOEL! WAIT UP!

SOMETHIN' WRONG WITH THE DINNER?

THEY'RE NOT USED TO FANCY COOKING.

I SEE YOU HAVEN'T EATEN ANYTHING, EITHER.

NOT HUNGRY.

I THOUGHT WE COULD HAVE A NICE FAMILY DINNER.

OH...

AND THE DINNERS I MAKE 7 NIGHTS A WEEK,

THEY WOULDN'T CUT IT AS A NICE FAMILY DINNER?

COME ON, YOU KNOW THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT.

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEANT, MR. MARTHA STEWART.

YEAH, WE'RE IN A FANCY HOUSE NOW,

BUT THIS ISN'T OUR HOUSE.

WE LIVE IN QUEENS. WE HAVE LITTLE KIDS.

WE DON'T MAKE A SPECIAL TRIP TO THE STORE

SO THEY CAN WIPE THEIR MOUTHS ON LINEN NAPKINS,

AND DON'T GIMME THAT CRAP

ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT. IT'S STUPID.

EVERYBODY USES PAPER NAPKINS.

I'M GONNA SEE IF THE KIDS WANT SOME SPAGHETTI.

Eddie: NOT A FUN WEEKEND?

NO, THE WORST.

SPEAKING OF WIVES,

I WONDER IF YOU'D DO ME A FAVOR...

AND VISIT MINE.

OH, YEAH, I'LL JUST JET ON DOWN TO THE BAHAMAS.

NO, I'M SERIOUS ABOUT THIS.

SHE'S HERE AT THE SHERRY.

THE WHERE?

I THOUGHT YOU WERE BORN AND RAISED IN NEW YORK.

SHERRY NE VALENT HOTEL, NEXT TO THE PIER.

I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN QUEENS.

I KNOW WHAT THE SHERRY NE VALENT IS.

I JUST DIDN'T KNOW IT HAD A NICKNAME.

[MOCKING] THE SHERRY.

[LAUGHING]

NOW, LISTEN, I'M SERIOUS ABOUT THIS, MIKE.

ANGELINA'S REALLY WORRIED ABOUT ME.

I CALL, BUT SHE KNOWS THE CALLS ARE MONITORED.

WE CAN'T REALLY TALK. MY LAWYER TELLS HER I'M OK,

BUT HE HARDLY EVER SEES ME,

AND SINCE YOU SEE ME ALL THE TIME--

YEAH, OK.

I'VE GOTTA RUN IT PAST MY BOSSES.

I CAN'T DO IT ON MY OWN.

SHE'D REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

SURE.

AND SUZANNA WOULD, TOO.

SUZANNA.

SHE'S, UH, THE WOMAN THAT RUNS YOUR JEWELRY STORES?

YEAH.

'CAUSE IN THE BAHAMAS,

THEY WERE SAYIN' SHE WAS YOUR WIFE, TOO.

OH, MIKE, THAT WOULD BE BIGAMY. PLEASE.

NO, ANGELINA'S MY WIFE.

SUZANNA'S MORE OF A GIRLFRIEND, YOU KNOW?

SHE'S AT THE SHERRY, TOO.

WAIT. WAIT. WAIT.

THEY KNOW ABOUT EACH OTHER?

WELL, OF COURSE.

THEY WERE TOGETHER LONG BEFORE I MET THEM.

TOGETHER, YOU MEAN--

YEAH.

THE 3 OF YOU?

WELL, NOT ALL THE TIME,

BUT WHEN WE DO,

IT'S AMAZING.

EDDIEEEE, YOU ARE A DOG.

Joan: EDDIE! MIKE!

THEY GOT PRESTON DRAI.

HE WAS LIVING IN A $3-MILLION HOUSE

THAT SOLD FOR 1.5.

NICE WORK.

SO YOUR BIG DAY'S COMING UP.

I CAN'T WAIT.

JOAN, IS THAT A NEW LIPSTICK

YOU HAVE TODAY?

MAYBE.

I HEAR PHONES RINGING.

[SIRENS]

[HONKING]

WHAT, ARE YOU WORKIN' ON YOUR DAY OFF?

NO, JUST CHECKIN' IN.

LISTEN, I DID WANNA ASK YOU,

EDDIE MEYERS' WIFE IS IN TOWN,

AND HE'S ASKED ME TO GO SEE HER.

YOU THINK THERE'D BE ANY OBJECTION TO THAT?

NO. GO AHEAD.

NEVER CAN TELL. IT MIGHT BE USEFUL.

THANKS.

THAT A NEW SUIT?

YEP.

VERY NICE.

NO, MY WIFE IS MORE OF A TEA DRINKER REALLY.

I'M PRETTY MUCH

A STRAIGHT BLACK COFFEE, YOU KNOW,

KINDA GUY.

YOU KNOW WHAT? I SHOULD REALLY GO.

BUT I HAVEN'T GIVEN YOU MY MESSAGE FOR EDDIE.

YA KNOW, I-- I WAS THINKIN'

YOU SHOULD PROBABLY GIVE IT TO THE LAWYER,

'CAUSE HE--

I CAN'T GIVE THIS MESSAGE TO A LAWYER.

[DOOR OPENS]

NO FAIR STARTING WITHOUT ME.

THIS IS TOO WEIRD.

EXCUSE ME.

Mike: I'M SORRY.

[LAUGHTER]

[EDDIE GROANS]

OH.

OH, THIS IS WONDERFUL.

I THOUGHT IT WAS NEVER GONNA

GET WARM ENOUGH TO SWIM.

YEAH.

WELL, YOU'RE A REAL CHATTERBOX THIS MORNING.

YOU SEEN MY WIFE THIS WEEKEND BY ANY CHANCE?

LISTEN, EDDIE--

[LAUGHS]

MIKE. MIKE, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

ANGELINA MADE THE FIRST MOVE, DIDN'T SHE?

YOU SENT ME THERE KNOWING THEY WERE GONNA COME ON TO ME.

THEY? WHAT, YOU GOT SUZANNA, TOO?

MIKE, YOU DOG.

NOTHING HAPPENED.

NO?

WHY THE HELL NOT?

WELL, YOU MEAN, YOU WOULDN'T BE JEALOUS?

WELL, ENVIOUS MAYBE,

BUT JEALOUS, NO. WHY SHOULD I BE?

ANGELINA AND SUZANNA START TO GO CRAZY

IF THEY SPEND TOO MUCH TIME

SLEEPING ONLY WITH EACH OTHER.

YOU GUYS ARE FROM A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT WORLD.

AND I LIKE TO THINK IT'S A BETTER WORLD.

DON'T YOU AGREE?

Reporter: THE JURY HEARD OPENING ARGUMENTS

TODAY IN THE TRIAL OF PRESTON DRAI,

FACING A 17-COUNT FELONY INDICTMENT

IN THE MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE

MONEY LAUNDERING SCANDAL.

SPEAKING FOR THE GOVERNMENT

LEAD PROSECUTOR A. DANIEL COLE

ALLEGED THAT DRAI OBTAINED CONTROL

OF THE 100-YEAR-OLD INSTITUTION

AND USED IT IN A VAST CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY.

LAWYERS FOR THE DEFENSE DENY THE CHARGES

AND HEAP SCORN ON A KEY GOVERNMENT WITNESS...

THEY'RE HEAPING SCORN ON YOU.

I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN TAKE IT.

TORTURE, YES, BUT HEAPING SCORN,

NO, THAT'S TOO MUCH.

THE TRIAL TAKING PLACE, FOR SECURITY REASONS,

HERE AT THE FEDERAL COURTHOUSE IN WHITE PLAINS, NEW YORK,

IS EXPECTED TO LAST 4 WEEKS.

OH, GOD, I HATE WEARING THESE THINGS.

YOU, ON THE OTHER HAND, LOOK GREAT.

IT'S YOU, JOAN.

YEAH. YEAH.

AND DON'T LET HIM TAKE IT OFF

WHEN MY BACK IS TURNED.

OH, IN FACT, THOSE EXTRA VESTS,

PILE THEM ON THE SHELF

BEHIND THE BACKSEAT.

TAKE A COUPLE EXTRAS,

PUT THEM IN THE FRONT,

AND WEAR YOUR HELMETS.

DON'T WORRY. MIKE'S LOOKING AFTER MY BACK, AREN'T YOU, MIKE?

YEAH. GET IN THERE.

JOAN.

YOU NERVOUS ABOUT SOMETHIN' WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?

THEY ASKED FOR SPECIAL BACKUP.

THAT VEHICLE'S GONNA BE WELL BEHIND US,

BUT THEY DON'T GO INTO ACTION UNLESS MY VEHICLE IS TAKEN OUT,

SO I DON'T TAKE THAT AS A GOOD SIGN.

YOU EVER BEEN TO BED WITH A BALLET DANCER, MIKE?

NO, I, ACTUALLY, UH, NEVER HAD THAT EXPERIENCE.

I ONCE WENT TO BED WITH THE ENTIRE COURT OF BALLET

OVER LA SCALA,

I HAVE TO SAY IT WAS SOMEWHAT MEMORABLE.

LISTEN, I HOPE YOU'RE MORE TRUTHFUL ON THE STAND.

FOR YOUR SAKE.

GENERALLY SPEAKING, THEY WERE VERY GRATEFUL.

[SIRENS]

YOU CAN PULL OVER.

YOU SEE, THEIR PARTNERS ARE VERY MUCH HOMOSEXUAL.

WHY IS HE SLOWING DOWN?

[SIREN STOPS]

UHH!

GET US OUTTA HERE!

GO! GO!

2'S HIT. 3, MOVE UP.

[GUNSHOTS]

[CLICK CLICK]

MIKE, I'M--I'M HIT.

[MOANS]

[SIREN]

GET HIM! GET HIM!

HOLD IT!

Officer: OK, RIGHT THERE!

Second officer: HEY! HEY! HEY!

Officer: GRAB HIM!

Second officer: I GOT HIM. I GOT HIM.

[SIRENS]

TAKE HIM, TOO.

ON MY FAR RIGHT IS A. DANIEL COLE,

SENIOR ASSISTANT U.S. ATTORNEY

IN MY OFFICE,

WHO WILL CONDUCT THIS BRIEFING.

MR. COLE'S FORESIGHT

IN ORDERING A SECOND BACKUP VEHICLE

PREVENTED TODAY'S ATTACK FROM TURNING INTO A TRAGEDY.

AS IT IS, I AM PLEASED TO REPORT

THAT THE DEPUTY MARSHAL

WHO WAS WOUNDED IN THE ATTACK

IS NOW OUT OF DANGER,

AND THE POLICE OFFICER WHO WAS INJURED

HAS BEEN TREATED AND RELEASED.

[REPORTERS ALL CALLING OUT AT ONCE]

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, MRS. ASHTON.

IN A BRAZEN DAYLIGHT ATTACK,

A CONVOY OF UNITED STATES MARSHAL SERVICE VEHICLES

TRANSPORTING A KEY GOVERNMENT WITNESS

IN THE PRESTON DRAI- MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE

MONEY LAUNDERING TRIAL

WAS OVERTAKEN AND FIRED UPON

BY GUNMEN IN A STOLEN AMBULANCE.

THE CONVOY WAS PROCEEDING

TOWARD THE UNITED STATES COURTHOUSE

IN WHITE PLAINS, NEW YORK,

WHEN THE ATTACK OCCURRED AT 8:15 THIS MORNING.

THE GOVERNMENT WITNESS

WAS SERIOUSLY INJURED IN THE ATTACK,

BUT IS EXPECTED TO FULLY RECOVER

AND WILL BE ABLE TO TESTIFY...

HEY, MIKE.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE WATCHING MY BACK.

YOU'RE ALIVE, AREN'T YOU?

I DON'T KNOW. AM I?

THE RUSSIAN MOB SENT THEIR 3 BEST GUYS AFTER YOU.

SHOTGUNS, AUTOMATIC WEAPONS, THE WHOLE 9 YARDS.

BUT ALL YOU GOT IS SOME BUMPS AND SCRATCHES

AND A CONCUSSION.

YOU GOT SHOT, TOO?

JUST A SCRATCH.

I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO SAY THAT.

HOW'S YOUR HEAD?

OHH, A KILLER HEADACHE,

BUT, UH,

I'LL LIVE.

STILL,

IT'LL BE WORTH IT IF YOU BELIEVE ME NOW

ABOUT OUR SMUG LITTLE FRIEND THERE.

COLE.

WHAT IS THIS? LIVE ONCNN.

THE BASTARD MUST BE DELIGHTED.

THE ONLY THING BETTER FOR HIM

WOULD BE IF BOTH OF US HAD GOT KILLED.

EDDIE, YOU'RE DELIRIOUS.

LOOK AT HIM, MIKE.

LOOK AT HIM.

HE SET US UP.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

TOTALLY.

WHAT DOES HE WANT?

HE WANTS HEADLINES. HE'S GETTING THOSE.

HE WANTS THE DISK.

IF I GET KILLED, HE GETS THAT, TOO.

HE SET US UP.

Cole: THANK YOU.

Joel and Jay: DAD! DAD! DAD!

HEY, DAD! HEY, GUYS.

HEY, DAD, COME SWIMMING!

DAD, CHECK IT OUT--

I CAN DO A CANNONBALL!

WOO-HOO!

HEY, THAT'S GREAT!

Joel: I'M THIRSTY, JAY. YOU THIRSTY?

YEAH!

I'M GONNA GET A SODA.

HI, HON. HEY.

YOU REMEMBER STEVE?

YEAH. HOW YOU DOIN'?

HE JUST, UH,

DROPPED SOME THINGS OFF.

[POPS SODA TAB]

MIKE?

LOOK, I DIDN'T CALL YOU,

'CAUSE I KNEW YOU'D TURN ON THE NEWS.

OK? THEY JUST STITCHED ME UP.

I'M FINE.

[SNIFFS]

Joel: ARE YOU OK, MOM?

MOM?

I'M OK. I WAS JUST WORRIED

FOR A SECOND ABOUT DADDY'S CUT.

CAN I SEE IT?

IS IT GROSS?

NO. NO, YOU CAN'T SEE IT,

AND, NO, IT'S NOT GROSS.

OH, COME ON! PLEASE?

Lucy: GUYS, LEAVE YOUR DAD ALONE.

Jay: WHAT ARE STITCHES?

Joel: WELL, SEE, WHEN DAD GETS A CUT,

THE DOCTORS STICK A NEEDLE

THROUGH HIS SKIN,

IN AND OUT AND IN AND OUT

UNTIL IT'S ALL TIGHT,

AND THEN THEY CUT IT AND TIE IT.

THAT'S NOT TRUE. YOU'RE MAKING IT UP.

I SHOULD TAKE OFF.

NO, NO, NO. JUST STAY. FINISH YOUR TEA.

I'M JUST GONNA GO TO THE BATHROOM.

Joel: JAY. JAY, THAT'S MY-- NO, THAT'S MY SODA.

JAY! [CLATTER]

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO PULL IT, JAY?

Jay: YOU CAN GET ANOTHER ONE, YOU KNOW.

Lucy: IT'S ALL RIGHT. I'LL CLEAN IT UP.

Joel, whispering: You missed a spot, Jay.

Jay: I need another paper towel.

Get it yourself!

YOU DROPPED YOUR WATCH.

HEY, STEVE, WHY DON'T YOU COME OUTSIDE,

GIVE ME A HAND WITH SOMETHING?

SURE, MIKE.

LEAVE YOUR GUN.

IT'LL JUST BE IN THE WAY.

THAT'S THE WAY YOU WANT IT?

YEAH.

LOOK, MIKE, THIS IS ALL MY FAULT.

ALL RIGHT? I WAS THE ONE--

[COUGHING]

[HONK]

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

Joel: COME ON! HURRY UP!

READY IN RECORD TIME!

I TOLD THEM THAT YOU MIGHT TAKE THEM TO McDONALD'S.

LATER.

Jay: COME ON, DAD. WE'RE STARVING!

THE KID'S HUNGRY NOW. WE CAN TALK LATER.

Joel: COME ON, PLEASE?

TIE YOUR SHOES. YEAH!

COME ON, HURRY UP BEFORE HE CHANGES HIS MIND.

SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT!

[BEEPING]

MOM'S NOT HOME.

I THINK SHE'S SHOPPIN'.

YOU GUYS GET IN THERE AND YOU BRUSH YOUR TEETH, OK?

[HITS SPEED-DIAL]

LUCE, IT'S ME. PICK UP THE PHONE.

LUCY, DON'T MAKE ME LEAVE THIS MESSAGE

ON YOUR PARENTS' ANSWERING MACHINE.

'CAUSE I--

HEY, I GOT YOUR NOTE.

YOU DON'T WANNA TALK TO ME?

FINE.

MAYBE THAT'S FOR THE BEST.

BUT I'LL TELL YOU WHAT. I'LL MAKE IT EASY FOR YOU.

I'LL STAY HERE WITH THE KIDS

UNTIL YOU GET HOME, AND I WILL GO.

BUT LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING-- I WOULD NEVER HIT YOU.

AND I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK YOU SAW IN MY FACE.

Man: JUST LIST YOUR ASSETS AS BEST YOU CAN

AND TELL US WHO YOU'D LIKE TO GET WHAT.

HOW MUCH TAPE'S ON THIS THING?

A HALF-HOUR ON EACH SIDE.

I'M GLAD YOU'RE DOING THIS.

IT'S CRAZY FOR YOU NOT TO HAVE A WILL.

YEAH, THANKS.

YOU KNOW, NONE OF THIS WOULD'VE HAPPENED

IF YOU'D JUST STAYED IN COSTA RICA.

YOU KNOW WHAT? JUST SHUT UP ABOUT THAT.

ANYTHING ELSE?

YEAH, I WANT A MEETING WITH COLE.

TOTALLY PRIVATE--JUST HIM AND ME HERE TOMORROW.

AND TELL HIM NOT TO TELL THE COPS OR THE FBI

THAT HE'S COMING.

HE'LL WANNA KNOW WHY.

I'LL TELL HIM WHEN HE GETS HERE.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOIN' HERE.

Eddie: NO ONE KNOWS YOU'RE HERE?

NO ONE BUT THE MARSHALS OUTSIDE,

AND THEY WON'T SAY ANYTHING.

WHY THE SECRECY?

BECAUSE I KNOW WHO SET ME UP.

IT WAS MIKE SANTINI.

SANTINI WAS IN THE CAR WITH YOU.

YEAH, AND WITH ALL THAT FIRING,

NONE OF THE BULLETS CAME NEAR HIM.

NO...

I'M SURE IT WAS MIKE.

WHY?

HE'S HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH MY WIFE.

SO I'M GONNA DO A DEAL WITH YOU.

I'LL GIVE YOU WHAT YOU WANT,

AND YOU TAKE CARE OF MIKE SANTINI.

[CB RADIO CHATTER]

OK.

Mike: LET'S GO.

HOW'S MY TIE?

IT LOOKS GOOD.

YOU LOOK LIKE A MOVIE STAR.

TELL ME, MIKE, WHAT DO YOU THINK THE CHANCES ARE,

AFTER ALL THIS,

OF COLE PROSECUTING ME ANYWAY?

NO, A PROSECUTOR WOULD NEVER TRY

AND SCREW A STATE WITNESS

AFTER THE FACT.

SO, YEAH, HE PROBABLY WILL.

I THOUGHT SO.

SO I HAVE TO MAKE MY OWN PLANS.

I DON'T WANNA HEAR ABOUT 'EM.

OH, BUT I HAVE TO TELL YOU.

DID YOU EVER SEE $4 MILLION IN CASH?

IT'S BULKY. IT'S NOT LIKE IN THE MOVIES.

YOU CAN'T JUST FIT IT ALL INTO A BRIEFCASE.

IT'S MORE LIKE 4 DUFFEL BAGS.

YOU HAVE TO GET THE BIGGEST SAFE-DEPOSIT BOX THAT THEY HAVE.

IN THE HYPOTHETICAL BANK?

OH, YEAH, OF COURSE. THIS IS JUST FICTION.

BUT JUST FOR FUN,

WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I OFFERED YOU

ONE OF THOSE BAGS?

IT'S A GOOD THING IT'S FICTION...

'CAUSE IN REAL LIFE, IT'D BE A MISTAKE.

YOU COULD ALWAYS JUST SAY NO.

BUT I MIGHT SAY YES.

AND THEN I MIGHT TELL MY BOSSES

EXACTLY WHAT THE PLAN WAS,

AND YOU WOULD HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWIN',

'CAUSE I COULDN'T TELL YOU.

I SEE.

IT'D BE MY JOB

TO MAKE YOU THINK I WAS BETRAYIN' THEM

TO HELP A FRIEND...

INSTEAD OF BETRAYIN' A FRIEND TO DO MY JOB.

WELL, I'M GLAD YOU THINK OF ME

AS A FRIEND AT LEAST, MIKE.

I DO.

AND IF YOU THINK OF ME IN THE SAME WAY,

YOU WILL NOT PUT ME IN THAT POSITION.

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING-- YOU'RE A GOOD COP?

YEAH.

THEN WHAT IF I OFFER YOU SOMETHING ELSE?

SOMETHING YOU JUST COULD NOT RESIST.

YOU ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT STOP.

ALL RIGHT.

TRY ME.

THE DISK.

THAT'S RIGHT, THE DISK.

EVERYBODY WANTS IT...

BUT I'M OFFERING IT TO YOU.

AT THE TIME THOSE TRANSFERS WERE MADE,

DID YOU KNOW THAT THEY WERE ILLEGAL?

YES, I DID.

THAT IN NOT REPORTING THESE TRANSACTIONS,

THE MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE ACTED

IN VIOLATION OF THE LAW?

THAT IS CORRECT.

AND THE ENTIRE SCHEME

OF ILLEGAL BANKING TRANSACTIONS

WAS CARRIED OUT AT WHOSE BEHEST?

AT THE BEHEST OF THE DEFENDANT,

PRESTON DRAI.

YOU SEEM AWFUL QUIET BACK THERE.

I GUESS AFTER 3 DAYS ON THE STAND,

YOU'RE ENTITLED.

OH, MIKE, I DON'T FEEL AT ALL WELL.

ARE YOU OK?

OH, GOD, NO.

PULL OVER. I GOTTA THROW UP!

OH, WE CAN'T PULL OVER.

OHH!

COUNTY GENERAL. NOW!

[MOANING]

AAH!

OK.

SIT DOWN, MIKE. SIT DOWN.

Mike: GO! MIKE--

DO WHAT HE SAYS!

[TIRES SCREECH]

Joan: CAR ONE, SLOW DOWN!

[TIRES SCREECH]

ONE, SLOW DOWN! [SIREN]

Joan: MIKE SANTINI!

MIKE, WHAT'S GOING ON? DO YOU READ ME?

MIKE?

MIKE?

3, WE'RE LOOKING BAD HERE.

TAKE THE EXIT.

Eddie: JUST RELAX, MIKE.

[TIRES SCREECH]

Eddie: STOP HERE.

STOP.

GET OUT. MIKE, TAKE THE WHEEL.

Mike: EDDIE,

LISTEN TO ME.

DON'T DO THIS.

Eddie: TAKE THE FIRST EXIT AFTER WE CROSS INTO THE BRONX.

WHATEVER YOU SAY.

YOU'VE GOT THE GUN.

REMEMBER THAT, AND WE'LL BE FINE.

I DON'T WANT THEM SEEIN' OR HEARIN' THAT HELICOPTER.

DON'T WORRY. IT'S 2 MILES AWAY.

Eddie: OK, PULL OVER ANYWHERE ALONG HERE.

WELL, AT LEAST WE CAN GET RID OF THESE THINGS NOW.

EDDIE,

I DON'T THINK YOU'RE GETTIN' THE MESSAGE.

DON'T DO THIS.

ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL ME SOMETHING, MIKE?

YEAH. I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU DON'T DO THIS.

POINT NOTED.

AND YOU CAN WALK AWAY ANYTIME YOU WANT.

BUT I COULD USE YOUR HELP.

YOU'RE DOIN' JUST FINE ON YOUR OWN.

I CAN'T CARRY 4 DUFFEL BAGS ON MY OWN.

AND OF COURSE THERE'S THE DISK.

YEAH. LET'S NOT FORGET THE DISK.

SO, MIKE,

ARE YOU IN OR OUT? EDDIE--

DON'T TELL ME NOT TO DO THIS,

BECAUSE I AM DOING IT.

ARE YOU IN OR OUT?

I'M IN.

GOOD.

GOOD MAN.

COME ON.

[HELICOPTER]

Mike: WHERE ARE WE GOING?

Eddie: THE MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE.

WHERE ELSE?

Mac: AT LEAST WE GOT THAT RIGHT.

WATCH FOR CARS COMIN' OUT.

Eddie: THIS ONE HERE.

Mac: YEAH, BUT WHICH ONE IS IT?

THE KEYS ARE UNDER THE SEAT.

Mike: OK.

Mac: COME ON, MIKE. GIVE ME A SIGN!

Mike: THE TURN SIGNAL...

COME ON!

I CAN'T GET THIS TURN SIGNAL OFF.

[BEEPING] LIGHTS...

Mike: I DON'T KNOW.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS. GREAT.

THERE.

MAROON TAURUS. THAT'S IT.

I'M TRYING TO FIND THE TILT

ON THE STEERING WHEEL.

IT'S WORKING.

YEAH, HE'S NOT AS DUMB AS HE LOOKS.

[HELICOPTER]

Technician: IF THE HELICOPTER STAYS

WITH THEM INTO MANHATTAN,

IT'LL HAVE TO BE RIGHT ABOVE THEM.

THEY COULD SEE IT.

THEN LOSE THE HELICOPTER.

AIR UNIT,

BREAK OFF SURVEILLANCE.

Pilot: ALL RIGHT.

WE GOT 'EM ON A TRANSPONDER ANYWAY, RIGHT?

YES, SIR. RIGHT HERE.

[HORNS HONKING]

EVERYBODY'S IN PLACE.

GOOD.

SHOW US.

HERE THEY COME.

Agent: THEY'RE TURNING RIGHT INTO THE PARKING STRUCTURE.

THEY COME OUT INSIDE THE BANK.

OH...

MY GUY'S NOT THERE YET.

YOUR GUY?

THE ASSISTANT MANAGER I DEAL WITH.

Eddie: SO WE'RE 15 MINUTES EARLY.

LET'S GET A COFFEE. COME ON.

I GOT 'EM.

[STATIC] Eddie: AS I REMEMBER,

THERE WERE MASSES OF COFFEE SHOPS ALL ALONG HERE.

Mike: ...CAFFEINE... NOW THAT...

[VOICES FADING IN AND OUT]

IT'S GONNA GET WORSE THE DEEPER UNDERGROUND THEY GO.

WE'RE GONNA LOSE THIS, TOO?

NO. NO PROBLEM. IT'LL BE FINE.

OH, THAT'S STRANGE.

I THOUGHT THERE WAS A MEN'S ROOM THROUGH HERE.

NO, I DON'T SEE--

[BURST OF STATIC]

WHAT'S THIS, MIKE?

A WIRE.

A WIRE, YES.

WELL, WE SHOULD GET THE SIGNAL BACK

WHEN THEY HEAD UP TO STREET LEVEL.

I TRIED TO TELL YOU I WAS PLAYIN' FOR THE OTHER TEAM.

DO I LOOK ANGRY?

BECAUSE I'M NOT.

NOW, LET'S SEE...

AH, HERE...

A PRESENT.

FOR YOU.

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?

I FIGURED THEY ALSO HOOKED YOU UP

WITH ONE OF THOSE, UM--

WHAT DO THEY CALL THOSE THINGS?

UM...

UH, LIKE A LOJACK DEVICE.

A TRANSPONDER?

YES, A TRANSPONDER.

WHICH COULD BE HIDDEN ANYWHERE,

BUT, OF COURSE, YOU COULDN'T TELL ME

WHETHER YOU HAD ONE OR NOT, COULD YOU?

HENCE, THE PRESENT.

STRIP.

EVERYTHING. DOWN TO THE SKIN.

I JUST HAVE TO HOPE THEY DIDN'T, UH,

MAKE YOU SWALLOW ONE

OR STICK IT UP YOUR ASS.

THEY'RE NOT THAT SMALL.

GOOD.

NOW, YOU'LL NOTICE THIS SUIT, UNLIKE YOURS,

HAS A HAND-SEWN CANVAS LINING IN THE CHEST.

YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE HOW IT HANGS.

YOU'RE GIVIN' ME FASHION TIPS AT GUNPOINT?

SOMEONE HAS TO.

[BEEPING]

GIRLS DID A BRILLIANT JOB SETTING ALL THIS UP.

LOOK HOW YOUR SUIT FITS.

MMM?

DO YOU REALIZE WHILE MY WIFE

WAS ON TOP OF YOU,

SUZANNA WAS TAKING YOUR MEASUREMENTS?

IS THAT WHAT SHE WAS DOIN'?

[CHUCKLING]

I HOPE YOU'RE NOT UPSET.

I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST COMMUTING AS SUCH...

THIS DOESN'T LEAD

TO THE MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE.

I WOULDN'T BEGIN TO TRUST A BANK

THAT ENGAGES IN MONEY LAUNDERING.

METAL DETECTORS.

SO, MIKE...

I'M UNARMED.

AND IT'S MY TURN TO WARN YOU...

TRY TO TAKE ME NOW.

DON'T GO UP THERE WITH ME.

WE'VE COME THIS FAR.

SO YOU'RE REALLY IN?

I'M IN.

I WON'T FORGET THIS, MIKE.

THAT'S A LONG CUP OF COFFEE.

NOW, THIS...

IS A BANK.

HEY!

HEY!

THEY'RE MOVING AGAIN.

IT'S MOVING, BUT THEY'RE NOT HERE.

FOLLOW THE SIGNAL!

THAT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE 4 DUFFEL BAGS FULL OF CASH.

YOU KNOW WHAT, MIKE?

YOU LIED TO ME, AND I LIED TO YOU.

LOOK AT THIS.

I'D BE INCAPABLE OF SITTING

ON $4 MILLION IN CASH,

EVEN WHEN THE CORE RATE OF INFLATION IS THIS LOW.

BUT FIRST-QUALITY DIAMONDS,

OVER A CARAT,

ARE AN EXCELLENT INVESTMENT,

AND WHAT IS MORE,

THEY'RE PORTABLE.

YOU DIDN'T NEED MY HELP AT ALL.

DON'T YOU GET IT?

EVERYTHING DEPENDED ON YOU,

ON YOU BEING AN HONEST COP.

THEY'D NEVER HAVE LET ME ESCAPE

UNLESS YOU WERE WEARING A WIRE,

IF THEY DIDN'T THINK THEY HAD THE UPPER HAND.

YOU WERE COUNTIN' ON ME TELLIN' MY BOSSES.

YOU WERE COUNTIN' ON ME BETRAYIN' YOU.

OF COURSE.

THAT IS WHY I CHOSE YOU

IN THE FIRST PLACE.

PLEASE DON'T SHOOT.

YOU KNOW, THERE'S A REASON FOR CLICH\S LIKE THAT.

WHAT ELSE CAN YOU SAY?

MAY I HAVE YOUR KEYS, PLEASE?

THANK YOU.

THERE'S NO DISK.

WELL, I DID TRY TO WARN YOU...

I'M PLAYING FOR THE OTHER TEAM, TOO.

[HORNS HONKING]

TAKE IT EASY, MIKE.

TAKE IT EASY, EDDIE.

BUT HE'S GETTING AWAY!

HE'S GOT A GUN.

I DON'T WANT ANYBODY GETTIN' HURT.

[BEEPING]

Agent: THEY'RE ON THE STREET IN FRONT OF THE BANK.

Woman agent: I'M FOLLOWING THE SIGNAL,

BUT ALL I SEE IS A KID WITH A GARMENT BAG.

Second agent: ALL I SEE IS A KID WITH A GARMENT BAG.

WHAT SHOULD WE DO?

Woman agent: WELL, GRAB HIM. TAKE HIM DOWN!

POLICE! HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK.

WHAT'S GOIN' ON?

Woman agent: WHERE'S THE TRANSPONDER?

CHECK THE BAG.

Kid: I'M SORRY!

I SWEAR, MY MOM HAS ONE JUST LIKE IT!

OHH!

LOOK.

DAMN IT.

[ALARM SOUNDING] WHAT?!

MAN!

OK...

YOU KNOW WHAT USUALLY HAPPENS AT THIS POINT.

THE FBI BLAMES THE N.Y.P.D.,

AND THE N.Y.P.D. BLAMES THE FBI.

NOT THIS TIME.

COLE'S GONNA BLAME BOTH OF US.

AND YOUNG MIKE, YOU KNOW HE'S FINISHED.

YEP.

[BOTH SIGH]

DOES THIS HOUSE SEEM SMALL TO YOU NOW?

I'M GLAD TO BE HOME.

I HATED THAT OTHER PLACE.

OH, I THOUGHT YOU LIKED IT.

ARE YOU GONNA GET FIRED?

I DON'T KNOW.

PROBABLY.

THEY TOOK MY BADGE AND GUN.

COLE WANTED TO HAVE ME ARRESTED.

WELL, YOU KNOW, I WAS THINKIN',

FOR A WHILE,

THAT I'D GO BACK TO WORK NOW THAT JAY'S OLDER.

IT'S TOO EARLY TO WORRY ABOUT THAT.

I'M STILL GETTIN' PAID WHILE I'M ON SUSPENSION.

NO MORE BIG OVERTIME CHECKS, THOUGH.

THAT HOUSE...

I NEVER THOUGHT OF IT AS OUR HOUSE.

I NEVER THOUGHT OF IT AS OUR BEDROOM.

I MADE SOME MISTAKES OF MY OWN.

I'VE GOT SOME CONFESSIONS TO MAKE, TOO.

I DON'T WANNA HEAR THEM.

NOT EVER.

I'M SORRY TO HEAR THAT.

I THOUGHT WE COULD START OVER.

THAT'S WHY I DON'T WANNA HEAR THEM, MIKE.

I WANT THE SAME THING.

I WANNA BE US AGAIN.

ME, TOO, BABE.

ME, TOO.

I APPRECIATE EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE, MAC.

EVEN YOU WALKING ME IN LIKE THIS.

I'M HAPPY TO DO IT.

BUT YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW I'VE DONE EVERYTHING I CAN.

I UNDERSTAND.

COLE'S SAYING

HE NEVER WANTED THE N.Y.P.D. INVOLVED,

THAT WE'RE A BUNCH OF CLOWNS,

WE LEAK THINGS.

THIS WHOLE FIASCO WITH EDDIE,

HE'S PUTTING THAT ON YOU.

WHY DOES THAT NOT SURPRISE ME?

GOOD. THEN YOU WON'T BE SURPRISED TO LEARN

THAT HE WANTS TO OPEN

YOUR EX-PARTNER'S BRIBERY CASE

TO SEE IF YOU WERE INVOLVED AFTER ALL.

AH, YOU DON'T GOT TO BE A ROCKET SCIENTIST

TO SEE THAT COMING.

JUST HANG TIGHT.

LOOK, UH...

UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES,

DO YOU THINK IT'S WISE TO GO IN THERE

WEARING A SUIT THAT EDDIE GAVE YOU?

THIS IS MY BEST SUIT.

LOOK...IT'S ALL HAND-SEWN LINING.

FOR CHRIST'S SAKE.

Cole: AFTER EDDIE MEYERS REMOVED THE WIRE,

THE 2 OF YOU WALKED THROUGH THE PEDESTRIAN SUBWAY

AWAY FROM THE MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE.

YES.

AND YOU KNEW THAT UNDERCOVER OFFICERS

WERE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY?

YES.

BUT YOU MADE NO ATTEMPT TO GET THEIR ATTENTION.

NOW, DOESN'T THAT PROVE YOU WEREN'T SEEKING HELP

FROM OTHER OFFICERS?

Mike: I WASN'T SEEKING HELP FROM OTHER OFFICERS.

WHY NOT? YOU KNEW THE OPERATION WAS BLOWN.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT.

THE UNDERCOVER OPERATION WAS STILL IN PLACE.

WELL, DID YOU REALLY THINK HE'D STILL GO BACK

TO THE MANHATTAN BANK OF COMMERCE?

I THOUGHT THERE WAS A CHANCE, YES.

YOU KEEP GOING. I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

AND DID YOU STILL THINK THERE WAS A CHANCE

AFTER YOU CROSSED UNDER BROADWAY

TO THE UNDERGROUND ENTRANCE TO THE FIRST FEDERAL BANK?

NO.

NO. TELL US, DETECTIVE,

WAS EDDIE MEYERS POINTING HIS GUN AT YOU

THE ENTIRE TIME

YOU WALKED THROUGH THE PEDESTRIAN SUBWAY?

NO.

WAS IT SHOVED INTO YOUR BACK?

NO. NO.

AND BEFORE YOU GOT ON THE ESCALATORS

LEADING INTO THE FIRST FEDERAL,

HE ACTUALLY PUT THE GUN IN THE TRASH.

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

AND AT THAT POINT, YOU HAVE NO POSSIBLE REASON

WHY YOU COULDN'T TAKE ACTION.

HE WAS UNARMED.

YOU'RE A TRAINED OFFICER,

AND THERE WAS A BANK SECURITY GUARD

STANDING RIGHT AT THAT ESCALATOR.

YOU DID NOTHING.

I THOUGHT MY MAIN GOAL WAS TO GET THE DISK.

Cole: WELL, BUT BY NOW,

YOU KNEW THE NAME OF THE BANK HE WAS GOING TO.

YOU KNEW HE HAD THE SAFE-DEPOSIT BOX KEY

ON HIS PERSON.

IF YOU'D ARRESTED EDDIE MEYERS AT THAT MOMENT,

WE COULD HAVE GOTTEN EVERYTHING IN THAT BOX,

INCLUDING THE DISK, IF IT WAS THERE,

AND WE'D STILL HAVE EDDIE MEYERS.

YEAH, I GUESS THAT'S TRUE.

[DOOR OPENS]

WE MAY NEVER KNOW WHEN

YOU BEGAN TO CONSPIRE WITH EDDIE MEYERS.

PERHAPS IT WAS FROM THE BEGINNING.

BUT YOUR REPEATED FAILURES TO ACT FROM THIS POINT ON

CAN ONLY BE EXPLAINED BY YOUR KNOWING,

WILLFUL PARTICIPATION IN HIS ESCAPE.

WE'LL END THE RECORD AT THIS POINT, CAROL.

WE WON'T NEED A TRANSCRIPT.

ORDINARILY, I'D DO THIS IN PRIVATE...

BUT YOU'VE ALL EARNED THE RIGHT TO BE PART OF IT.

THIS WAS DELIVERED

TO THE FBI's NEW YORK OFFICE THIS MORNING,

AIR EXPRESS FROM SOUTH AMERICA.

FINGERPRINTS ON THE MICROCASSETTE RECORDER

WERE IDENTIFIED AS THOSE OF EDDIE MEYERS.

JUST THAT SECTION AT THE END.

Cole, on tape: YOU UNDERSTAND,

WE'LL NEVER LET YOU ACTUALLY ESCAPE.

Eddie: I DON'T CARE.

THAT BASTARD PRETENDED TO BE MY FRIEND

AND BETRAYED ME.

Cole: DON'T WORRY. YOU GET ME THE DISK,

I'LL TAKE CARE OF MICHAEL SANTINI.

I-I'D LIKE TO EXPLAIN.

YOU'LL HAVE EVERY OPPORTUNITY.

YOU SHOULD RETAIN COUNSEL FIRST.

PLEASE SEE THAT ONE OF YOUR MARSHALS

STAYS WITH MR. COLE

AS HE GATHERS HIS PERSONAL PROPERTY.

HE'S TO BE OUT OF THE BUILDING

IN 15 MINUTES.

Newscaster: A BIZARRE TWIST IN THE PRESTON DRAI

MONEY LAUNDERING CASE.

JUST DAYS AFTER WINNING A GUILTY VERDICT,

LEAD PROSECUTOR A. DANIEL COLE

WAS HIMSELF INDICTED.

COLE IS CHARGED WITH ATTEMPTING TO FRAME

A NEW YORK CITY POLICE OFFICER

FOR COMPLICITY IN THE DISAPPEARANCE

OF EDDIE MEYERS,

THE GOVERNMENT'S KEY WITNESS IN THE CASE.

SPEAKING THROUGH HIS LAWYER,

COLE DENIED THE CHARGES,

CLAIMING THAT INSTEAD EDDIE MEYERS HAD FRAMED HIM.

MEYERS IS BELIEVED TO HAVE FLED TO COSTA RICA

TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT COUNTRY'S

FAVORABLE EXTRADITION LAWS.

NO WORD YET ON WHETHER

THE REMAINING CHARGES AGAINST MEYERS

WILL NOW BE DROPPED,

GIVEN HIS COOPERATION IN THE DRAI CASE.

Boys: DAD!

HEY, DAD!

HEY, JOEL!

DAD!

HEY, JAY!

HEY, TOUGH GUY, WHERE'S YOUR MAMA?

IN THE HOUSE. I DON'T KNOW.

OH, LISTEN TO ME. IN MY GLOVE BOX

I'VE GOT SOME M&M's FOR YOU. ALL RIGHT?

Joel: THANKS, DAD!

Mike: LUCE?

I'M IN THE BEDROOM.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

OH, GOD.

I CAN'T SEEM TO FIND MY ENGAGEMENT RING.

I KNOW I HAD IT ON WHEN WE LEFT THE OTHER HOUSE.

IT WAS A SMALL DIAMOND, ANYWAY.

HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT?

MIKE!

NOT ONLY AM I BACK ON THE JOB,

I'M GONNA MAKE DETECTIVE SECOND.

IT'S GONNA BE OFFICIAL NEXT WEEK.

MIKE...HONEY, I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU.

MMM. REALLY.

COME SIT WITH ME.

I HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU.

[GASPS]

IT'S THE SAME RING. IT'S JUST A DIFFERENT STONE.

A LITTLE BIGGER. CAN YOU TELL?

OHH, OF COURSE I CAN TELL. [GASPS]

IT IS BEAUTIFUL.

CAN WE AFFORD IT?

WELL, YOU'RE GONNA BE GOING BACK TO WORK.

OH, MIKE.

I AM SO GLAD THIS IS OVER.

ALMOST OVER.

NOT QUITE.

SUZANNA.

EDDIE.

WELL, WELL.

THE WORLD'S MOST HONEST COP.

[LAUGHS]

"I WANT HIM OUT OF THE BUILDING IN 15 MINUTES."

AH, IT COULDN'T HAPPEN TO A NICER GUY.

BUT I HAVE TO SAY I WAS SWEATIN'.

I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU HUNG ME OUT TO DRY.

OH, MIKE, HOW COULD YOU POSSIBLY THINK THAT?

THE UNSTATED BARGAINS

ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT ONES TO KEEP.

AND SPEAKING OF UNSTATED BARGAINS...

IT'S NOT EXACTLY

ONE OF 4 DUFFEL BAGS OF CASH,

BUT IT'S CLOSE ENOUGH.

SHALL WE MAKE 4 SEPARATE PILES...

AND YOU TAKE YOUR PICK?

I'M STILL A COP, EDDIE.

I SEE YOUR GUN.

IT'S NOT GONNA DO YOU ANY GOOD.

I HAVE THIS PLACE SURROUNDED.

YOU BETRAYED ME, EDDIE.

WELL, WE'VE BETRAYED EACH OTHER.

IS THERE ANY WAY WE COULD WORK TOGETHER?

BUT ONLY ONE OF US CAN WIN.

OR MAYBE NOT.

[RELIEVED LAUGH]

I GOT YOU, EDDIE.

YES. YES, YOU DID, MIKE.

SO... TAKE YOUR SHARE.

THAT'S NOT MY SHARE.

YOU SURE?

YEAH.

AH. WHAT ABOUT THIS?

THE DISK.

THANK YOU.

YOU KNOW IF THIS ISN'T THE RIGHT ONE,

I'LL BE BACK.

OH, IT'S THE RIGHT ONE.

WOULD I LIE TO YOU?
