00:01:31¶¶
00:01:32New York City, the heart of the financial world,
00:01:36the greatest port on the face of the earth.
00:01:39But here also is the nerve center of an organization
00:01:42that controls crime throughout the country,
00:01:45an organization whose insidious fingers dip not only into vice,
00:01:49murder, narcotics, but whose tentacles reach into gambling,
00:01:54the waterfronts that corrupts and intimidates the world of sport.
00:02:00Here in a city of millions of decent, industrious people
00:02:03is a handful of men who form the top echelon of organized crime.
00:02:09Hoodlums? Yes.
00:02:11But now clothed in respectability to form a cartel known as the Syndicate.
00:02:20On a January night on a quiet side street in midtown Manhattan,
00:02:24the law was violated.
00:02:26Not only the law of the city,
00:02:28but the law of the Syndicate.
00:02:30Killing for personal vengeance.
00:02:57A trigger-happy pig not only knocks off one of our best men,
00:03:00but blasts a couple of citizens, too.
00:03:01Take it easy, Charlie. We'll take care of Andrado.
00:03:03What do you mean, take it easy? I've been on the phone all day.
00:03:06The organization's sore. I don't blame him.
00:03:07We spend millions to wrap things up, and this pig blows the lid off.
00:03:09And in my territory yet.
00:03:11I always told you, Charlie, Andrado's a bad boy.
00:03:13Something wrong with him up here.
00:03:16What do you want?
00:03:17Mr. De Lucia is calling from Italy.
00:03:20Well, I got Albert on my back.
00:03:24Hello.
00:03:25Yeah, this is Lupo speaking.
00:03:29Hello, Albert. How are you?
00:03:31I'm fine, fine.
00:03:33Yeah, I know, I know.
00:03:34The newspapers are playing it up big.
00:03:35They're lowering the boom on us.
00:03:37No, he did this on his own. It was personal.
00:03:39I'm taking care of it right away, so stop worrying, will you?
00:03:42Hey, Albert, how's the family?
00:03:44Good, I'm glad to hear it.
00:03:45I'll talk to you real soon.
00:03:47Goodbye.
00:03:48How did he take it?
00:03:50Well, you know Albert, he never gets excited, but he's worried.
00:03:53Oh, that Andrado!
00:03:55Calm down, Charlie.
00:04:00What is it now?
00:04:01Arnie Wendler is here.
00:04:02Send him in.
00:04:09Oh, Mr. Lupo.
00:04:10Hiya, Ben.
00:04:11Hello, Arnie.
00:04:11Sit down, Wendler.
00:04:13I'm giving you a contract.
00:04:15Pete Andrado.
00:04:15I want it done in the next 48 hours, and I want it clean.
00:04:17Do you understand me?
00:04:18Clean.
00:04:19Pete's a pretty rough guy.
00:04:20So are his boys.
00:04:21They're going to be keeping their eyes open now.
00:04:23Do I have to tell you how to do it?
00:04:24Get some good boy from the Middle West.
00:04:26Somebody Andrado doesn't know.
00:04:27Don't you think we ought to wait a little while, Charlie?
00:04:28Do you think he's settled down?
00:04:29No, I don't.
00:04:31I want this pig taken care of right away.
00:04:32He made an unauthorized hit.
00:04:33He gets hit himself.
00:04:36Phone Johnny Achilles in Chicago.
00:04:37Tell him I told you to call.
00:04:38Give him a set up.
00:04:39He'll send you a good boy.
00:04:40Okay, Ben.
00:04:41I'll check with you later.
00:04:42Goodbye, Mr. Lupo.
00:04:45Sorry I'm so irritable, Ben, but this thing's got me upset.
00:04:48I need a rest, a vacation, maybe a week or so in Florida.
00:04:50It'll do me some good, huh?
00:04:52Yes, Mr. Lupo?
00:04:53Get my mother on the phone, will you?
00:04:55Right away.
00:04:56Hey, Ben.
00:04:57Maybe you better leave town, too, especially while the hit's being made, huh?
00:04:59Yeah.
00:05:00I think I'll take a drive down to Philadelphia and see my daughter.
00:05:03She just sent me some new pictures of the kids.
00:05:05Oh, let me see them here.
00:05:07Hey, these are wonderful.
00:05:09This young one, spitting image of you, Ben.
00:05:11Believe me, the spitting image.
00:05:12A lot of people say that, Charlie.
00:05:14What?
00:05:14I have Mrs. Lupo for you.
00:05:16Oh, fine.
00:05:18Hello, Mama.
00:05:20See, how'd you like to get down to Florida for about a week?
00:05:22Ah, now come on.
00:05:24It'll do you good, Mama.
00:05:25I'll tell you what you do.
00:05:27You pack the bags, I'll come home early with the tickets, huh?
00:05:30All right, fine, Mama.
00:05:31Talk to you later.
00:05:32Goodbye.
00:05:33That same day, a man boarded a plane at the Chicago airport.
00:05:37This was Nick Magellan.
00:05:39Quiet, inconspicuous.
00:05:41Nothing to distinguish him from the two dozen or so other male passengers.
00:05:46The wheels of the syndicate had begun to move, swift, relentless, merciless.
00:05:53Retribution was to strike Pete Andrado in the person of one Nick Magellan.
00:05:59Destination, New York.
00:06:01Purpose, murder.
00:06:04Here he comes now.
00:06:24That's him getting out now.
00:06:31Okay.
00:06:33He's all mine now.
00:06:43Do you know when a blonde dame comes out and lights a cigarette, that means Andrado's
00:06:46ready to leave.
00:06:46Who's the blonde?
00:06:47Andrado's ex-wife.
00:06:49She's fingering him.
00:06:50Do you know when you see Andrado come out, start your cab and drive down the corner here.
00:06:54Why do you got your signal to move?
00:06:56As soon as he's out in the open, gun the car and Magellan...
00:07:00You listening, Magellan?
00:07:02Yeah, I'm listening.
00:07:05When you get here, let him have it.
00:07:07If his boys are with him, blast them too.
00:07:09Gino's cab will be used as a crash car and cover your getaway.
00:07:12Whitey will drive you someplace so he can get rid of the heater.
00:07:15Then you two split up, and you'll ditch the car.
00:07:18You got it, Magellan?
00:07:23You all through?
00:07:23Yeah, I'm through.
00:07:25When I make a hit, I don't like a lot of company, especially blonde dames.
00:07:28Just give me a drive, or I'll do the rest.
00:07:30Look, wise guy.
00:07:32I know Pete Andrado.
00:07:34He's rough, and he's no dope.
00:07:35You want me to make this hit, or do you want to do it yourself?
00:07:37You just better not miss, Magellan.
00:07:40I don't miss.
00:07:41Got a silencer?
00:07:43Oh, give him a dowser.
00:07:47Just remember, Magellan, Mr. Lupo wants us clean.
00:07:51Don't worry, it'll be clean.
00:07:54Clean as a whistle.
00:07:55Come on, Whitey.
00:07:55Let's take a ride.
00:08:03Why don't you get rid of that guy, Pete, Stu, any minute?
00:08:10You're back, Drew, pal?
00:08:11I'll take another beer.
00:08:12But you ain't finished with this one.
00:08:14It's flat.
00:08:14Bring me another one.
00:08:18Hiya, boys.
00:08:22Get rid of it.
00:08:29Something wrong with the food?
00:08:31I didn't make any complaints.
00:08:32You're taking an awful long time to eat it.
00:08:33I'm a slow eater.
00:08:34Beat it.
00:08:35I haven't finished my sandwich.
00:08:37I told you to beat it.
00:08:39Okay.
00:08:41You don't have to get tough about it.
00:08:43Frisk him.
00:08:46He's clean.
00:08:46Look in his coat.
00:08:54It's clean here.
00:08:56Now get out of here.
00:08:58We don't want your dough.
00:08:59Just beat it.
00:09:00Okay.
00:09:07He's got a gun!
00:09:10Come on!
00:09:12Okay.
00:09:28Come on.
00:09:29Come on.
00:09:30Come on.
00:09:32Come on.
00:09:33Come on.
00:09:41Death came today to racketeer Pete Andrado.
00:09:44According to police, this is obviously a gangland reprisal
00:09:47for the shooting of Louis Martinez two days ago in Manhattan,
00:09:50in which John Pickens, an innocent bystander,
00:09:53was brutally murdered and his wife critically injured.
00:09:55From her bed at city hospital...
00:10:05Yeah?
00:10:06It's me, Arnie.
00:10:14Hello, Nick.
00:10:15Hi, Whitey.
00:10:20There's plenty of heat on around town.
00:10:22You sure nobody saw you?
00:10:23Like I told you, Arnie, it didn't take us more than 30 minutes.
00:10:26Nick comes out and we drive away and nobody even tumbles to us.
00:10:29If I had the time to stick around, I'd really show you boys a few tricks.
00:10:31Look, Magellan, you were pulled in on this job
00:10:34because Andrado didn't know you.
00:10:35We got a dozen boys could have done just as good a job, better.
00:10:39I won't argue the point.
00:10:40Just give me my door for the job so I can get back to Chicago.
00:10:42This town bores me.
00:10:43You're not leaving.
00:10:45You've got to hang around for a while.
00:10:46Look, I work for Achilles.
00:10:47I'm taking the first plane out of here tonight.
00:10:50Right now you're on a loan out and you're working for Lupo.
00:10:52If he says stay, you stay.
00:10:54Lupo wants me to stay?
00:10:55Yeah.
00:10:56He called me from Miami.
00:10:57He said he wants to see you.
00:10:58He'll be back in a few days.
00:10:59I guess Lupo appreciates real talent.
00:11:02This may be the home run that pays off.
00:11:04Very funny.
00:11:06I'll need some expense money.
00:11:15So long, Nick.
00:11:16So long, Whitey.
00:11:22By merging the lumber company with the East-West Rucking Corporation,
00:11:25we can write off a capital loss and see if us have $300,000 in taxes.
00:11:30The doctor should have to eat this.
00:11:32It tastes like something you put wallpaper on with.
00:11:35Boy, did I live it up in Miami.
00:11:38Oysters, lobster, Newburgh, French pastry.
00:11:39Got sick as a dog.
00:11:40Mama had to stay up with me all in one night.
00:11:42You're sure nuts to eat stuff like that with your stomach.
00:11:47Well, guys got to bust loose once in a while.
00:11:51How's business generally, Morris?
00:11:52Very good.
00:11:53Up 4.7% over last year.
00:11:56That's good to have a nice legitimate business.
00:11:58Tell me something.
00:11:59How do the rackets do it?
00:12:01Excellent, Mr. Lupo.
00:12:03Up 8% over last year.
00:12:06The numbers did alone $1,672,875 better for the first quarter.
00:12:13This guy kills me.
00:12:14He's got a better memory than an elephant.
00:12:15Carries a whole set of books in his head and never makes a mistake.
00:12:18Thank you, Mr. Lupo.
00:12:19What about Brooklyn?
00:12:19Picking up money?
00:12:20I was going to mention Brooklyn.
00:12:23It's pulling down on average.
00:12:24Their collections dropped off 2% again.
00:12:28You don't think there's anything dishonest going on over there, do you?
00:12:31I couldn't say, but the collections have formed very sharply.
00:12:35Maybe I better replace some Michael and a boy.
00:12:36No, he's one of the best.
00:12:37He's got dames on his mind.
00:12:38That's his trouble.
00:12:39Too many dames.
00:12:39I'll talk to him.
00:12:42Yeah?
00:12:42Nick Magellan is here.
00:12:43Talk to him as soon as I'm through with Morris.
00:12:46Okay, Morris.
00:12:47You want me to leave while you're talking to Magellan?
00:12:48No, no, no.
00:12:49You stay here.
00:12:49I want you to meet him.
00:12:50Boy, does this bring back memories.
00:12:52His father gave me my first break.
00:12:54I remember Frank Magellan.
00:12:56I met him in Chicago just before he got knocked off.
00:12:58It was a fisherman that got him, wasn't it?
00:12:59Yeah, it was during the beer war, just for repeal.
00:13:02He was a great guy, rest his soul.
00:13:04Goodbye, Mr. Lupo.
00:13:05Goodbye, Morris.
00:13:06Goodbye, Ben.
00:13:07So long, Morris.
00:13:08Thanks, Morris.
00:13:08It's always a pleasure.
00:13:10Send Magellan in, will you?
00:13:12Yes, sir.
00:13:14I almost died when I talked to Achilles in Miami.
00:13:16He told me he was sending Magellan's son down.
00:13:18Says he's a smart boy.
00:13:19We can use a smart boy around here with some of the dummies we got working for us.
00:13:24Mr. Lupo?
00:13:25Come in, come in.
00:13:27How are you?
00:13:29This is Mr. Dagajanian.
00:13:31Glad to know you.
00:13:32Hello, Magellan.
00:13:33Sit down, Nick.
00:13:34Sit down.
00:13:37He's just like his father, only better looking.
00:13:40Your father and I were friends, Nick.
00:13:41Real good friends.
00:13:42Yes, I know.
00:13:43He used to talk about you a lot when I was a kid.
00:13:46How would you like to work for me?
00:13:48Thanks for the offer, Mr. Lupo, but I already work for Johnny Achilles.
00:13:51I'll pay you more money.
00:13:52I'm sorry.
00:13:52I work for Mr. Achilles.
00:13:54Look, kid, you're talking to Lupo.
00:13:55You should be happy to work for me.
00:13:56This guy's begging to work for Lupo.
00:13:57Well, I appreciate that, Mr. Lupo, but Johnny Achilles gave me my break.
00:14:00And as long as he wants me, I'm staying with him.
00:14:07I already talked to Achilles, and it's all right with him.
00:14:10Well, that's different, Mr. Lupo.
00:14:11If it's okay with him, it's okay with me.
00:14:13Now you're working for me.
00:14:14Ben, we're going to have to find the right spot for it.
00:14:16What about Brooklyn might keep Sumac on his toes?
00:14:19All right, Sumac will come back in line after you talk to him.
00:14:21Look, Nick, give Ben and me a chance to kick this thing around a while, will you?
00:14:23Sure, fine.
00:14:26Thanks, Mr. Lupo.
00:14:27You won't be disappointed.
00:14:28No, I know I won't.
00:14:29Goodbye, Mr. Dacachanian.
00:14:30Goodbye, Magellan.
00:14:31Check with me tomorrow.
00:14:32Fine.
00:14:38He sure is like his father, same manner, quiet and polite.
00:14:42You know, Ben, that Frank Magellan was the toughest guy I ever knew, absolutely the toughest.
00:14:47He's pretty loyal to Achilles.
00:14:49You notice that, too, huh?
00:14:50Loyalty, that's something you can't buy.
00:14:52Half the pigs that work for us can't even spell it.
00:14:59Oh, what I wouldn't give for a salami on rye and a kosher pickle.
00:15:08Peel us garage.
00:15:10Yeah, just a minute.
00:15:13Three jacks.
00:15:14Three ladies.
00:15:15It's for you, Magellan.
00:15:21Yeah?
00:15:23Right, I'll be waiting out front.
00:15:26Cash me in.
00:15:27Who was that?
00:15:29My governess.
00:15:29She thinks I ought to be in bed.
00:15:34Lupo's been shot.
00:15:36Bad?
00:15:37I don't think so.
00:15:38He talked to me himself.
00:15:39Doctor's on his way over there.
00:15:40Where did it happen?
00:15:41In his house, Long Island.
00:15:42They got him through the window.
00:15:44Andrade must have had some good friends.
00:15:45His brother, Kansas City.
00:15:47We got a tip a couple of days ago.
00:15:48He was blowing his mouth off about getting Lupo.
00:15:50We were watching for him, but he must have slipped into town.
00:15:53You want me to take care of him?
00:15:54No, you got another job.
00:15:56You stay close to Lupo until we find Luis Andrade.
00:15:58Night and day.
00:15:59Stay with him.
00:16:00I'll stay with him, Mr. Dagajanian.
00:16:03Night and day.
00:16:06Hello, Mr. Dagajanian.
00:16:07How bad is it?
00:16:08Not much.
00:16:09Just nicked him on the left arm.
00:16:10The boss is more mad than hurt.
00:16:12The doctor's still here.
00:16:12They're in the library.
00:16:13Where were you when it happened?
00:16:14Upstairs.
00:16:15By the time I got outside, Andrade would beat it.
00:16:18Better take a look around the grounds, Nick.
00:16:20If Andrade finds out he missed Charlie, he might be back.
00:16:22Okay.
00:16:24I'm Nick Magellan.
00:16:25Glad to know you.
00:16:26I'm Ed Bynes.
00:16:28Nice place.
00:16:28Yeah, sent the boss back 300 grand.
00:16:31You said no more guns.
00:16:33That it was just going to be business.
00:16:35And now you are getting shot at again.
00:16:37Just like the old days.
00:16:39Mama, please.
00:16:39I told you it was a crazy hopped up pig.
00:16:41Nobody shoots a group of only crazy pigs.
00:16:42No, no.
00:16:43It's like the old days you are getting shot at again.
00:16:45But I'm not young like I used to be.
00:16:47I can't nurse you.
00:16:48Mama, Mama, Mama, please.
00:16:52Mama.
00:16:53Go make some coffee for the boys, huh?
00:16:56Guns.
00:16:57Shoot.
00:16:57Just like the old days.
00:16:59I know.
00:17:01Well, Doc, looks like he's going to live, huh?
00:17:03Ah, just a little flesh wound.
00:17:04Not very deep.
00:17:05I guess Charlie owes his life to that rug.
00:17:07Yeah, how about that?
00:17:08I tripped over the rug as the bullet came through the window.
00:17:09I got in the other room all right.
00:17:11But that pig, he put a bullet right in the middle of my painting.
00:17:13You're lucky it went through the painting instead of you.
00:17:14Lucky?
00:17:15You know what that painting cost me?
00:17:1630 grand.
00:17:17Just look at it.
00:17:1830 grand.
00:17:38Get him up.
00:17:39What is this?
00:17:40Let go of him.
00:17:41Turn around.
00:17:42Take your hands off him.
00:17:44Just who are you?
00:17:46I'm Catherine Lupo.
00:17:47I happen to live here.
00:17:49I work for your father.
00:17:57I'm terribly sorry about this, Dan.
00:17:59Forget about it, Kathy.
00:18:00It was just a mistake.
00:18:02I'm really sorry.
00:18:03I'm so humiliated.
00:18:05Look, it wasn't your fault.
00:18:06Forget about it, will you?
00:18:07I'll call you tomorrow.
00:18:08Okay?
00:18:09All right.
00:18:10Good night, Kathy.
00:18:11Good night, Stan.
00:18:12Good night, Stan.
00:18:13Good night.
00:18:14Good night.
00:18:15Good night, Stan.
00:18:18Good night.
00:18:31Good night.
00:18:56Hello, Catherine.
00:18:57How bad is it, Doctor?
00:18:58Now, there's nothing to worry about.
00:18:59Just a slight wound.
00:19:00Your father's too tough to let a little thing like that bother him.
00:19:08Are you all right, Papa?
00:19:09Oh, I'm fine.
00:19:09It's just a scratch.
00:19:10Nothing to worry about.
00:19:12See how my girl worries about me, Ben?
00:19:13Well, why shouldn't she?
00:19:14Hello, Uncle Ben.
00:19:15Hello, Kathy.
00:19:17Tell me, do you have a good time at the party?
00:19:18All right.
00:19:20See any of your friends from college?
00:19:22We left early.
00:19:23Must have been kind of boring, huh?
00:19:25I'd rather not talk about it.
00:19:28Oh, hi, Nick.
00:19:29Come on in.
00:19:29Come on in.
00:19:33How you feeling, Mr. Lupo?
00:19:34I'm fine, fine.
00:19:35Oh, Kathy, this is Nick Magellan.
00:19:37Nick, this is my daughter, Kathy.
00:19:39We've met.
00:19:43That's a pretty big drink for a little girl.
00:19:45I'm afraid I'm not a little girl anymore, Papa.
00:19:49I suppose this will be in all the newspapers tomorrow.
00:19:51No, of course not.
00:19:53Not one word of it, Kathy.
00:19:54How'd it happen?
00:19:55Some slob took a shot at me through the window, that's all.
00:19:58For no reason, I suppose.
00:19:59None that I know of.
00:20:00But it won't stop there.
00:20:02You won't let it stop there, will you, Papa?
00:20:04Now, you give the orders to shoot whoever shot you.
00:20:06Isn't that the way it works, Uncle Ben?
00:20:08Kathy, I've told you my business has nothing to do with you.
00:20:10It has lots to do with me.
00:20:12You see, I have to live with it, too.
00:20:13Decent people don't want me around.
00:20:14It's as though I had a disease.
00:20:16I'm a freak because I'm Lupo's daughter.
00:20:17What's wrong with Lupo?
00:20:19I can buy and sell any of those pigs.
00:20:20You better start getting some respect for your father.
00:20:23Respect?
00:20:24I'm ashamed of the name of Lupo, and I'm ashamed of you.
00:20:27Don't ever say that again, Kathy, ever.
00:20:37Don't pay attention to it, Charlie.
00:20:39She's just a little upset, that's all.
00:20:41Yeah, sure.
00:20:43You better get some rest.
00:20:45Take care of that arm.
00:20:46Maybe you shouldn't go to the office tomorrow.
00:20:48I'll be all right.
00:20:49I'll see you tomorrow.
00:20:50Good night, Charlie.
00:20:51Good night, Ben.
00:20:52Good night, Nick.
00:20:53Good night.
00:20:54It'll show you to your room.
00:20:56See you in the morning, Nick.
00:20:57Good night, Mr. Lupo.
00:20:58Good night.
00:21:06The district attorney is here.
00:21:08Show him right in.
00:21:13How are you, Judge Kincaid?
00:21:14Fine, thank you, Rossi.
00:21:15I'm sorry to bring you here at this hour.
00:21:17Oh, that's fine.
00:21:17Sit down.
00:21:19I got a call from the governor, and he's appointed me to head a crime commission.
00:21:22I'm leaving for Albany in the morning.
00:21:24You can count on the full cooperation of my office.
00:21:26I know that.
00:21:27Have you gotten any leads on the Andrado killing?
00:21:29Not a thing yet, except that we're sure it's the syndicate.
00:21:32It's the old familiar pattern, evil destroying itself.
00:21:35I'm afraid we've got to do a little destroying, too.
00:21:38That's what I wanted to talk to you about, Rossi.
00:21:39Strategy.
00:21:40We'll shoot for the top.
00:21:42Lupo?
00:21:43Lupo.
00:21:44That's a pretty big order.
00:21:50Good morning.
00:21:51Good morning.
00:21:55About last night, I suppose I shouldn't have slapped you.
00:21:58Under the circumstances, you were probably only doing your job.
00:22:00You don't have to apologize.
00:22:01I'm not apologizing.
00:22:02I still think you were rude and ill-mannered.
00:22:04Then I apologize.
00:22:06Good morning, Miss Kathy.
00:22:07What will you have for breakfast?
00:22:09Just coffee, Ed.
00:22:09All right.
00:22:13You were pretty rough with your father last night.
00:22:16You know, Mr. Magellan, you have a penchant for interfering in other people's affairs.
00:22:20Pension?
00:22:21Exactly.
00:22:22Pension means a strong inclination towards.
00:22:24And I'd appreciate it hereafter if you'd mind your own business.
00:22:28Morning.
00:22:29Good morning.
00:22:29Good morning, Papa.
00:22:30Good morning, Mr. Lupo.
00:22:33How'd you sleep, Nick?
00:22:34Fine.
00:22:34How's the arm?
00:22:35Oh, it's a little stiff.
00:22:35I feel kind of silly wearing this thing, though.
00:22:38Ready for breakfast, boss?
00:22:40Yeah, but no cream of wheat.
00:22:41But the doc said you're supposed to eat it.
00:22:42No cream of wheat.
00:22:44Okay, okay, boss.
00:22:45No cream of wheat.
00:22:48Well, what's my girl gonna do today?
00:22:49I haven't decided yet.
00:22:51Well, maybe you're gonna have lunch with Stan, huh?
00:22:53You know, she's going with a real nice kid, Nick.
00:22:55Kathy, I like that boy.
00:22:56Would you mind changing the subject?
00:22:58Is anything wrong?
00:22:59No, not a thing.
00:23:00Yeah, there's something wrong, I can tell.
00:23:02I knew there was something wrong last night.
00:23:03Did you and Stan have a fight?
00:23:04I'm not going to see him anymore.
00:23:06Oh, come on, Kathy.
00:23:07Don't want to quarrel upset you.
00:23:09Quarrel, young people, quarrel.
00:23:10We didn't have a quarrel, Papa.
00:23:11His family feels that association with a gangster's daughter might harm his career.
00:23:15That's it, period.
00:23:17Is he important to you, Kathy?
00:23:18What's the difference?
00:23:19It's over.
00:23:20Answer me.
00:23:20Is he important to you?
00:23:21It doesn't matter anymore.
00:23:22If you want that boy, you're gonna have him, Kathy.
00:23:24How, Papa?
00:23:25You're gonna buy him for me?
00:23:26You're gonna buy me a man now, like you buy me a new dress or a car?
00:23:30Stop talking like a child, Kathy.
00:23:31You don't understand these things.
00:23:32If he's important to you, I can do something for the boy.
00:23:34I can set him up in business.
00:23:35I understand.
00:23:36I understand very well.
00:23:38You'll make a big man of him and then corrupt him like you do everything else you touch.
00:23:41Shut up, Kathy.
00:23:42But you can't corrupt him.
00:23:43I won't let you.
00:23:44I won't let you.
00:23:45Shut up, Kathy.
00:23:48And now leave the table.
00:23:57I just don't understand that kid anymore, Nick.
00:24:00She's got a chip on her shoulder.
00:24:01I do everything in the world for her.
00:24:01She's still got a chip on her shoulder.
00:24:03I wouldn't worry about it.
00:24:04She's full of psychological conflicts.
00:24:05But she'll straighten out.
00:24:06I hope you're right, Nick.
00:24:07I hope you're right.
00:24:10Say, you've had a pretty good education, haven't you?
00:24:12You know, I like that.
00:24:13Most of the dummies work for me.
00:24:14Can't even write their names.
00:24:15I never had much school, either.
00:24:16I read a lot.
00:24:17I read all the bestsellers.
00:24:21Tell me something, Nick.
00:24:22You got any other clothes?
00:24:23I have a couple of suits back in Chicago.
00:24:24I'm sending for them.
00:24:25Leave them there.
00:24:26Look, after you drop me to the office, you go to Barone.
00:24:28He's my tailor.
00:24:29Order yourself some suits.
00:24:29Nothing like you're wearing.
00:24:30Let him pick them out.
00:24:30He's got good taste.
00:24:32Well, that's swell of you, Mr. Lupo.
00:24:33I have a penchant for nice things.
00:24:35You got a what?
00:24:37Penchant.
00:24:40Yeah, sure.
00:24:50Good morning, Mr. Lupo.
00:24:51What happened to your arm?
00:24:52I stranded.
00:24:53Hello, Johnny.
00:24:54How are you?
00:24:54Nick, you go on down to Barone's.
00:24:55I'll talk to you later.
00:24:56Come on in, Frawley.
00:25:01Who's he?
00:25:02Robert Frawley, Mr. Lupo's lawyer.
00:25:04He looks well fed.
00:25:05He is.
00:25:07I'll be down at Barone's.
00:25:08If you need me, I'll be back in a couple of hours.
00:25:09No stripes.
00:25:11No stripes.
00:25:15Now, what's on your mind, Frawley?
00:25:17The governor is appointing a crime commission.
00:25:19We've had him before.
00:25:20Judge Kincaid is heading this one.
00:25:22Who else?
00:25:23Henry Waltham's on it.
00:25:24He's in our corner.
00:25:25Find out who the rest are and get to him.
00:25:27That's what I wanted to talk to you about, Charlie.
00:25:30I'm going to need more money.
00:25:31At least a couple of hundred thousand.
00:25:33Wait a minute, Frawley.
00:25:34We're paying plenty for protection.
00:25:35We're not going to pay any more.
00:25:36There'll be big men on this commission, Charlie.
00:25:38Even if we can reach them, their price will be high.
00:25:41This wasn't figured on our budget.
00:25:43They're a bunch of crooks.
00:25:44It's a bunch of lousy crooks.
00:25:46If Kincaid ever gets wind of the Washington deal...
00:25:48All right, all right, Frawley.
00:25:48You're going to get your money, but I want the commission blocked.
00:25:50Do you understand?
00:25:53I'll do the best I can, Charlie.
00:25:54That's not good enough.
00:25:55I want it stopped and stopped cold.
00:25:57All right, Charlie.
00:26:04Nothing but a bunch of lousy crooks.
00:26:09Yes, Mr. Lupo.
00:26:10Send down a delicatessen.
00:26:11Get me a salami on rye.
00:26:12But, Mr. Lupo, the doctor...
00:26:14You heard me.
00:26:14A salami on rye.
00:26:17And a kosher pickle.
00:26:18Mallethead.
00:26:25Hiya, boss.
00:26:26Mr. Bagajanian phoned.
00:26:27Said to call him as soon as he got in.
00:26:29He's at home.
00:26:29Get me a bicarbonate soda, will you?
00:26:31You must have eaten something and didn't agree with your boss.
00:26:35Okay, okay.
00:26:36Right away.
00:26:43Hi.
00:26:46Hi.
00:26:47Join me?
00:26:48No, thanks.
00:26:51No bad habits, huh?
00:26:53Not during business hours.
00:26:55Not even to please the boss's daughter?
00:26:59Especially not with the boss's daughter.
00:27:02Afraid?
00:27:05Could be.
00:27:07Nick, I wonder about you.
00:27:08You're not like the rest of Papa's hoodlums.
00:27:11I like to use the term employee.
00:27:13Like a cobra.
00:27:15Always relaxed, yet always ready to strike.
00:27:17Nick!
00:27:19Excuse me.
00:27:20Jump, Fido.
00:27:21Papa gave you liver.
00:27:29That's good news, Ben.
00:27:30Thanks.
00:27:31See you tomorrow.
00:27:33They got Louie Andretto in Detroit.
00:27:35He was trying to make it to Canada.
00:27:36Oh, good.
00:27:37Then I guess you won't be needing me anymore.
00:27:38I'll check with Mr. Takajanian in the morning.
00:27:40No, no, no.
00:27:41You stay with me, Nick.
00:27:41I got plans for you.
00:27:42That's fine with me, Mr. Papo.
00:27:51Wow!
00:27:51And no stripes.
00:27:53You were born to wear clothes like that, Nick.
00:27:55You look simply terrific.
00:27:57You know, if I were a little younger...
00:28:00Don't give me any ideas.
00:28:01The boss still here?
00:28:02Go right in.
00:28:03He's waiting for you.
00:28:08Hey, Nick.
00:28:09How are you?
00:28:09Come in, come in.
00:28:10Let me get a good look at you.
00:28:11Come in.
00:28:13Hey, that's wonderful.
00:28:14Turn around.
00:28:15Turn around.
00:28:18Hello.
00:28:19Iris, Nick Magellan.
00:28:20Glad to know you.
00:28:21It's quite a difference, bro.
00:28:22He did a great job.
00:28:24Not a beauty, Iris?
00:28:25Real class, huh?
00:28:26Mr. Magellan makes a very handsome picture.
00:28:28You make yourself at home, Nick.
00:28:29As soon as I'm finished checking these reports,
00:28:30take them to Carmen to be typed
00:28:31and take them over to Franklin's office in the morning.
00:28:33Would you like a martini, Mr. Magellan?
00:28:35We were just having one.
00:28:36That is, I was.
00:28:38Uh, not right now, thanks.
00:28:39I sure picked a fine night to go to a show
00:28:41when I'm looking with Nick and these reports.
00:28:43I'm finally getting Charlie to the theater.
00:28:45I practically have to drag him
00:28:47and then he always wants to leave
00:28:48after the first act.
00:28:49Well, Iris, those shows, they bore me.
00:28:51Yeah, these look all right.
00:28:53Nick,
00:28:54I'd like to go to Washington with me.
00:28:55Well, that's fine with me, boss.
00:28:56Take these to Carmen, will you?
00:28:57Bye.
00:28:59When are you going, dear?
00:29:01First part of the week.
00:29:01I'll only be going a couple of days.
00:29:04Isn't he everything I said he was?
00:29:06He's definitely got something.
00:29:07Sure, he has class.
00:29:08That's what he's got, real class.
00:29:11Be through with these in about an hour.
00:29:15That's for me.
00:29:15I'm not here.
00:29:16Hello?
00:29:17Oh, yes, Mrs. Lupo.
00:29:18Your mother.
00:29:19Oh, excuse me.
00:29:21Yeah, hello, Mama.
00:29:22What?
00:29:24When?
00:29:26Now, look, Mama,
00:29:27please don't get excited about this whole thing.
00:29:28I'll take care of it right away.
00:29:31Yes, Mama, I know, but...
00:29:34All right, Mama.
00:29:37Yeah, I'll be there.
00:29:38Yes, Mama.
00:29:39Goodbye.
00:29:40Sorry, Iris, I gotta go home.
00:29:42Oh, Charlie.
00:29:43Nick, do me a favor.
00:29:43Take Iris to the theater.
00:29:44Pick up the reports in the morning.
00:29:45I'll talk to you tomorrow, Iris.
00:29:49I hate to impose on you, Mr. Magellan.
00:29:51Of course, if you'd rather not go.
00:29:53Where do you want to eat?
00:29:54Well, there's a nice little restaurant
00:29:56on the east side.
00:30:01She's leaving, Charlie.
00:30:02She's leaving us.
00:30:03Where is she?
00:30:04She's upstairs, packing.
00:30:06Be nice to her, Charlie.
00:30:07Be gentle.
00:30:08I will.
00:30:09I will.
00:30:21What's happened, Kathy?
00:30:23I'm leaving this house for good.
00:30:26Come on now.
00:30:27Stop all that nonsense, will you?
00:30:30I've taken all I can take of this house
00:30:32and everything it stands for.
00:30:34You're pretty upset.
00:30:35What's happened?
00:30:36Stan wants to marry me.
00:30:38He doesn't care what his family thinks anymore.
00:30:40I think that's wonderful news.
00:30:41You should be very happy.
00:30:42Should I, Papa?
00:30:44Should I be happy because you bought him
00:30:45like you buy everybody else?
00:30:47I didn't buy him.
00:30:48Of course, I talked to the boy.
00:30:49But what's wrong with helping Stan?
00:30:51I told you to leave him alone.
00:30:53Now I wouldn't spit on him.
00:30:55Be practical, Kathy.
00:30:56I only did it for you.
00:30:57Haven't I always given you everything
00:30:58you've ever wanted?
00:30:58Yes, Papa.
00:30:59You've given me everything.
00:31:00Everything but self-respect and decency.
00:31:02That's something you can't buy.
00:31:03Self-respect?
00:31:05I'm tired of self-respect
00:31:06and you're decent people.
00:31:07You think those east side snobs
00:31:08got any more self-respect than me?
00:31:09I can tell you a lot
00:31:10about those two-faced pigs.
00:31:11They're no better than me
00:31:12and maybe worse.
00:31:13I know, Papa.
00:31:14You can buy and sell them.
00:31:15You can buy and sell them
00:31:16with your blood money.
00:31:17Blood money?
00:31:18Blood money, you call it.
00:31:19Good enough to buy you these
00:31:22and these.
00:31:23Blood money.
00:31:24It's good enough to buy you those,
00:31:25wasn't it?
00:31:26You call it blood money.
00:31:28It was good enough
00:31:28to send you to Europe
00:31:29and put you to the best schools
00:31:30and you call it blood money.
00:31:32You know the trouble with you, Kathy,
00:31:33is you're spoiled
00:31:34and I spoiled you.
00:31:35Yes, you spoiled me, Papa.
00:31:37You bought me
00:31:37like you buy everybody else
00:31:39and I hate myself for it.
00:31:41I hate everything
00:31:41I've ever taken,
00:31:42but no more.
00:31:43I'm leaving here
00:31:44and I'm getting rid
00:31:45of the name of Lupo.
00:31:45I won't let it kill me
00:31:46like it killed my mother.
00:31:47Shut up!
00:31:48Charlie, don't!
00:31:49Then pack that bag,
00:31:50you're going to stay here.
00:31:52That was typical, Papa.
00:31:55You're still a hula.
00:31:57You'll never be anything else.
00:32:22Good night, Iris.
00:32:26Come on in for a nightcap.
00:32:28No, thanks.
00:32:28I think I'll run along.
00:32:30Nonsense.
00:32:30Curfew hasn't rung yet.
00:32:32Besides, I'm still
00:32:32in a talkative mood.
00:32:34There's one thing
00:32:34you'll learn in my racket.
00:32:36Stay in your own territory.
00:32:38Good night.
00:32:55You heard the senor.
00:32:56Cash on the line.
00:32:57We don't get the oil leases
00:32:57until his country gets a loan.
00:32:59How else could it be?
00:33:00Suppose my government
00:33:01should deliver the oil
00:33:02to you gentlemen
00:33:03at your low price
00:33:04and then should fail
00:33:05to receive the loan
00:33:05from your government.
00:33:06When's this come up
00:33:07for Congress, Williamson?
00:33:08This is Washington, Charlie.
00:33:09You can't rush things here.
00:33:11You understand, Mr. Lupo,
00:33:12that we must tread
00:33:13most delicately.
00:33:15As a matter of fact,
00:33:16this brings to mind
00:33:16the teapot dome scandal
00:33:18of some years ago.
00:33:19Save your speeches
00:33:19for Congress.
00:33:20Look, I know this is no breeze,
00:33:21but you guys aren't working
00:33:21for nothing with your 5%, you know.
00:33:23No one's complaining, Charlie.
00:33:24We've just got to be cautious.
00:33:25There's been a lot of opposition
00:33:26to this loan.
00:33:28Have the vessels
00:33:28been purchased yet?
00:33:29We bought 12 tankers,
00:33:31all under Panamanian registry.
00:33:32Under dummy names, of course.
00:33:34I'm worried about the big American
00:33:35and English oil companies.
00:33:37If it leaks out your organizations
00:33:38getting the oil leases
00:33:39so cheaply,
00:33:40they'll smell the government
00:33:41loans tied to it,
00:33:42and they'll blow this deal
00:33:43right up in our faces.
00:33:46And a lot of people
00:33:47with it, too.
00:33:48That's my department, Charlie.
00:33:49Let me worry about that.
00:33:50It's in your lap, Williamson.
00:33:52Goodbye, Mr. Lupo.
00:33:53I'll see you.
00:33:54See you, Charlie.
00:33:55So long.
00:33:56See you in New York, Charlie.
00:33:57Right.
00:33:58Don't worry about a thing, Charlie.
00:33:59I'll keep you advised.
00:34:00Yeah, do that.
00:34:05A bunch of pigs.
00:34:07That Williamson's
00:34:07a pretty smooth article.
00:34:09He's the best lobbyist
00:34:09in Washington.
00:34:10Big man behind the scenes.
00:34:12Recognize the other two, Nick?
00:34:13The one with the big hat.
00:34:14Isn't he the guy
00:34:15that was shooting his mouth off
00:34:16about corruption in government?
00:34:17Yeah, that's right.
00:34:17And he's got his price.
00:34:18Just remember that, Nick.
00:34:19Everybody's got a price.
00:34:20All you gotta do
00:34:20is find out what it is.
00:34:26Hiya, boss.
00:34:27Glad to see you back.
00:34:35Boss, your mother
00:34:36wants to see you right away.
00:34:37She's up in her room.
00:34:39Anything wrong?
00:34:40You better talk to her.
00:34:50What happened, Mama?
00:34:51Cathy is gone.
00:34:53Gone?
00:34:53Gone where?
00:34:54She's left us, Charlie.
00:34:55She went early this morning.
00:34:56All right, where'd she go?
00:34:58I don't know.
00:34:59She wouldn't tell me.
00:35:00She said she was living for good.
00:35:02What a crazy kid.
00:35:04Where's she gonna go?
00:35:04Where's she gonna live?
00:35:06This is her home, Mama.
00:35:07She belongs here.
00:35:08You know, Mama,
00:35:09we spoiled her.
00:35:10That's the trouble.
00:35:11Don't worry, Mama.
00:35:12I'll find her and bring her back
00:35:13and knock some sense
00:35:14into that stubborn head of hers.
00:35:16Don't you worry, Mama.
00:35:17I'll bring her back.
00:35:27Charlie, we're not getting any action
00:35:29from this guy, Williamson.
00:35:30Yeah, I know, I know.
00:35:31He talked to me on the phone
00:35:31a couple of weeks ago.
00:35:32He's having trouble lining up
00:35:33some of the boys, that's all.
00:35:34Don't smell kosher to me.
00:35:35I don't know how far you can trust
00:35:36these striped pants fellows.
00:35:37I'll have Frohler go down
00:35:38and look into it.
00:35:40How are the rest of our enterprises
00:35:42doing, Morris?
00:35:43Excellent.
00:35:43Las Vegas is showing
00:35:44a substantial increase.
00:35:46The only spot we are falling down
00:35:47is Brooklyn.
00:35:48We dropped again this quarter.
00:35:50That's sumac and his dams.
00:35:54I'm having Nick look into that.
00:35:55Don't worry about sumac, will you?
00:35:57That's all, Morris.
00:35:58Thanks a lot.
00:35:58Thanks.
00:35:58Always a pleasure, Mr. Lupo.
00:36:03Oh, get these reports
00:36:04out to the boys today, will you?
00:36:05I'll mail them this afternoon.
00:36:06Goodbye, Mr. Lupo.
00:36:07Goodbye, then.
00:36:15Did you find out anything yet, Ben?
00:36:18Not yet, Charlie.
00:36:22Boys can't find trace of her.
00:36:23She just fell out of sight.
00:36:28I wonder where she can be.
00:36:35Charlie, don't worry.
00:36:36Might take a little time,
00:36:38but we'll find her.
00:36:39I've got to get her back, Ben.
00:36:43I know.
00:36:43See you later, Charlie.
00:37:07Hello, Mr. Magellan.
00:37:09Sumac around?
00:37:10Back in the office.
00:37:11You want me to get them?
00:37:12Don't bother.
00:37:24What's on your mind, Magellan?
00:37:26Would you mind leaving?
00:37:27Stay right where you are, baby.
00:37:28I will, honey.
00:37:29I'd rather not have baby around for this.
00:37:31She's staying.
00:37:32These minks you're chasing with
00:37:33are taking your mind off your business.
00:37:34We don't like it.
00:37:35Oh, we don't like it.
00:37:38Instead of getting your name
00:37:38in the nightclub columns,
00:37:39we want to see some results
00:37:40in your collections.
00:37:41Uh-huh.
00:37:42Well, if Lupo has any beefs,
00:37:43he can give them.
00:37:43I don't like to be bothered
00:37:44by errand boys.
00:37:45That's tough,
00:37:46because you're going to be bothered
00:37:46by this errand boy from now on.
00:37:48The collections go up
00:37:49or you go out.
00:37:51I've been working
00:37:52for the syndicate a long time, Magellan,
00:37:53and nobody ever tried
00:37:54to push me around.
00:37:55Even Mr. Lupo
00:37:56never tried to muscle me,
00:37:57so I'm certainly not going
00:37:58to be shoved around
00:37:59by a two-bit punk like you.
00:38:04I'm going to give you
00:38:05real trouble for that, Magellan.
00:38:07I'm coming to check
00:38:08on you every week, Zomek.
00:38:11And this mink better not be here
00:38:13during business hours.
00:38:14Say, that's the second time
00:38:15you've called me a mink.
00:38:25Would two o'clock Wednesday
00:38:26be all right for you,
00:38:27Mr. Perkins?
00:38:29Fine, we'll see you then.
00:38:30Bye-bye.
00:38:32Hello, Cathy.
00:38:34Nick, what are you doing here?
00:38:35How did you find me?
00:38:36You should have changed
00:38:37the addresses.
00:38:37I want to talk to you.
00:38:38No, please, I can't talk here.
00:38:40Leave me alone, Nick.
00:38:41How about dinner with me?
00:38:43Look, I'm happy here.
00:38:44Don't spoil it for me.
00:38:45They don't know who I am.
00:38:47How about dinner?
00:38:48No, please.
00:38:49Okay.
00:38:51I'm staying until you say yes.
00:38:55Hello, Miss Lang.
00:38:56Good afternoon, Mrs. Wilson.
00:38:57Would you be seated?
00:38:58The doctor will be with you shortly.
00:39:03I think I can arrange
00:39:04that appointment for you
00:39:05after all, sir.
00:39:06Would six o'clock this evening
00:39:07be convenient?
00:39:08Six would be fine.
00:39:09I'll be here right on the dot.
00:39:22What are you trying to prove, Cathy?
00:39:23Living in a dump,
00:39:24making 45 bucks a week.
00:39:27I'm living my life
00:39:28the way I want to.
00:39:29You're breaking
00:39:29your father's heart.
00:39:31Look, Nick,
00:39:32don't think I don't love Papa.
00:39:34That's the trouble.
00:39:36I love him as a father.
00:39:38I detest him as a man.
00:39:40I hate everything he stands for,
00:39:41everything he believes in.
00:39:43What do you think
00:39:43anybody else believes in?
00:39:44Take a look around you.
00:39:47See that busboy over there?
00:39:48He steals from the waiter.
00:39:49The waiter steals from the owner.
00:39:50And the owner gyps the government.
00:39:52You really believe that
00:39:52about people?
00:39:53Everybody's out
00:39:54for what he can get.
00:39:55Nobody's handing out
00:39:56any free lunches
00:39:56in this world, Cathy.
00:39:58When I was a kid,
00:39:59I wore shoes with holes in them.
00:40:00I wore pants that were too big
00:40:01handed on from the kid upstairs.
00:40:03When my father was killed,
00:40:04my mother sewed buttonholes
00:40:04for $12.50 a week
00:40:05to buy me bread.
00:40:06You didn't sew buttonholes
00:40:07so you'd wind up like this.
00:40:08What should I have been instead?
00:40:10A banker?
00:40:10A big brain surgeon?
00:40:12Secretary of State?
00:40:14My father was Frank Magellan.
00:40:16Could I have gone to Harvard
00:40:16or West Point?
00:40:18You're in a bind, Cathy.
00:40:19You were in a bind
00:40:19before you were born.
00:40:20So was I.
00:40:21So make the best of it.
00:40:22Hang on to what you've got.
00:40:24You see this?
00:40:25$200 bucks.
00:40:26And this, custom-made,
00:40:27$25 bucks.
00:40:28That's what's important.
00:40:29Doesn't matter how you get it,
00:40:30as long as you've got it.
00:40:31Don't try to fight
00:40:32something you can't beat
00:40:33or you'll be in
00:40:34for a big letdown.
00:40:38If I believed that,
00:40:38I wouldn't want to live anymore.
00:40:42Take me home, Nick.
00:40:55This is where I live.
00:40:59Please don't tell Papa
00:41:00where I am.
00:41:01I won't, I promise.
00:41:03Thanks, Nick.
00:41:04If you need anything,
00:41:05anything at all,
00:41:07you know where you can reach me.
00:41:09Yes, I know.
00:41:12Good night, Nick.
00:41:15Good night, Cathy.
00:41:18Good night.
00:42:49It felt good bolting that punk.
00:42:51I had a real good time working him over.
00:42:53He might have been a pretty boy once.
00:42:55I wonder what he looks like now.
00:43:08Take a good look.
00:43:13I'm sorry I couldn't be announced this time, but your boy is lying behind the bar with a slight headache.
00:43:20Hurt your hand?
00:43:23Yeah.
00:43:24Let's see it.
00:43:27Not that way.
00:43:27Over here.
00:43:30I said over here.
00:43:34Put it on the desk where I can get a good look at it.
00:43:41Go out and get it fixed.
00:43:42Go out and get it fixed.
00:44:12Do you like it better with the lights out?
00:44:14Let's have it that way.
00:44:21You know where the guns are.
00:44:23Let's see you get them.
00:44:46Let's go.
00:45:17I don't know.
00:46:03I don't know.
00:46:19I don't know.
00:46:19Do you think she'll come home, Mama?
00:46:22No, Charlie.
00:46:24Cathy's gone.
00:46:26She's gone for good.
00:46:29I'm going to find her, Mama.
00:46:32I'm going to talk to her.
00:46:34Leave her alone.
00:46:36For once in your life, leave her alone.
00:46:41Give her a chance.
00:46:43Let her find what she's looking for.
00:46:49You are my boy, Charlie.
00:46:51And I love you.
00:46:53But you are not always right.
00:46:58Listen to your Mama.
00:47:00Leave the child alone.
00:47:11Get to the point, Fraulee.
00:47:13Why am I here?
00:47:13It's about Ben Dagenian.
00:47:15I got a hot tip in Washington this morning
00:47:17that they're going after him on illegal entry into the country.
00:47:20Deportation?
00:47:21Yes.
00:47:22The immigration authorities will probably serve him next week.
00:47:25Okay, so we'll fight it.
00:47:26We've beaten those rats before.
00:47:27You won't beat this, Magellan.
00:47:28They've got him.
00:47:30Cold.
00:47:31You can't even begin to fight this.
00:47:32If you do, we can forget about the oil deal.
00:47:34What's the oil deal got to do with it?
00:47:36Plenty, Nick.
00:47:37This is meat for Judge Kincaid and his commission.
00:47:39He'll make a big thing of this.
00:47:41Drag in Lupo, everybody.
00:47:43Put the spotlight on the syndicate.
00:47:44Look, Magellan.
00:47:45I've spent nearly a year lining up
00:47:47some very influential people on this government loan.
00:47:50You'll scare them off
00:47:51if you put the syndicate on the front pages.
00:47:53Dagenianians got to get out of the country
00:47:55before the proceedings can even get underway.
00:48:02You want me to break this to Lupo?
00:48:04You're close to Charlie.
00:48:06You can explain it to him better than we can.
00:48:09Oh, sure.
00:48:10I can explain it real good.
00:48:12I just say, Charlie,
00:48:13you've got to throw your best friend out of the country.
00:48:14Oh, I'm sure you can be a little more diplomatic than that.
00:48:18Yeah, Williamson, I can be real diplomatic.
00:48:21Like you country club hypocrites.
00:48:23Just wrap the knife in velvet before I shove it in.
00:48:25Well, I think that's a little uncalled for.
00:48:26Now, Nick,
00:48:28there's no need to get nasty with Paul about this.
00:48:31Besides,
00:48:32this isn't the most unfortunate thing
00:48:34that could happen to you.
00:48:35After Dagenian is gone,
00:48:37somebody has to take his place,
00:48:38and you're in pretty solid with Lupo.
00:48:52Ben's going to have to go.
00:48:53That's all there is to it, Nick.
00:48:56The syndicate comes first.
00:48:58Sure, we couldn't fight it, Charlie?
00:48:59There's not a chance.
00:49:00This oil deal is too important.
00:49:03Poor Ben.
00:49:04This is about the toughest thing
00:49:05I've ever had to do in my life.
00:49:08You want me to break it to him, Charlie?
00:49:10Oh, that hurt him even worse.
00:49:11I'll break it to him, Nick.
00:49:14Do you know that Ben and your father
00:49:16were the first friends I had in this country?
00:49:18Yes, I know, Charlie.
00:49:20Ben saved my lifetime in the docks,
00:49:22and he almost got killed doing it, too.
00:49:27He's going to have to go.
00:49:28That's all there is to it.
00:49:30Your organization comes first.
00:49:38I wonder how she's getting along, Nick.
00:49:42I'm sure she's all right, Charlie.
00:49:45If I only knew where she was.
00:49:48If I knew that she was all right.
00:49:52You're sure nobody's turned in
00:49:53any information on her, huh, Nick?
00:49:56No, not a thing.
00:50:02Wherever she is, I hope she's happy.
00:50:09Good evening.
00:50:20Hi.
00:50:20Hi.
00:50:21My, how handsome you look.
00:50:22I'm sorry I'm late.
00:50:23I got caught in theater traffic.
00:50:24Not late at all.
00:50:25The party's just starting.
00:50:26Guest of honor's waiting for you.
00:50:32Who's giving this party, anyway?
00:50:33I don't know.
00:50:34Holly called and said to come on over
00:50:35between shows and bring some friends.
00:50:37Good for her.
00:50:38I haven't eaten like this in weeks.
00:50:40Here he is, Johnny.
00:50:42Nick, how are you?
00:50:43Good to see you again.
00:50:44It's good to see you, Mr. Achilles.
00:50:45I don't call him Mr.
00:50:46Let me look at you.
00:50:47You're looking wonderful.
00:50:48Charlie, you're making a real gentleman out of him, huh?
00:50:50Not me.
00:50:51It was always there.
00:50:51Well, it's been a year now.
00:50:53You're moving up in the world, huh, kid?
00:50:54He's going to take over Dagajanian's spot.
00:50:56That's great.
00:50:57Congratulations.
00:51:00Something on your mind, Johnny?
00:51:02Yeah, yeah.
00:51:04Now, those three men are very important men, honey.
00:51:07You see that big fellow over there?
00:51:09That's Mr. Lupo.
00:51:10Come on, I'll introduce you to them.
00:51:13How's it treat you, Nick?
00:51:15Pretty good, Johnny.
00:51:15Father and I are over.
00:51:16Hello, gentlemen.
00:51:18Gentlemen, I'd like to have you meet my new client.
00:51:20This is Miss Doreen Hill.
00:51:22Mr. Lupo, Mr. Achilles, and Mr. Magillito.
00:51:25How do you do?
00:51:26How do you do?
00:51:26How do you do?
00:51:27Dancers like Nijinsky.
00:51:28I thought maybe she'd be great in one of your spots up in Vegas.
00:51:31Might be a spot for her in one of our Chicago clubs.
00:51:34Oh, that'll be great, Mr. Achilles.
00:51:35This is a great kid.
00:51:36They'd love her in Chicago.
00:51:37Can I buy you a drink, honey?
00:51:38Well, of course you can.
00:51:39You'd love to have a drink, wouldn't you, honey?
00:51:42I'd love to.
00:51:43See you later, boy.
00:51:48Dancers like Nijinsky.
00:51:50Excuse me.
00:51:51There's a phone call for you, Charlie.
00:51:52Well, thanks, Iris.
00:51:53Excuse me.
00:51:57I, uh, phoned your office twice last week, and you didn't call back.
00:52:01I guess the girl forgot to tell me.
00:52:03You're lying.
00:52:05Okay, so I'm lying.
00:52:08Come on, I'll buy you a drink.
00:52:16Hello?
00:52:18Marshal.
00:52:19Where are you?
00:52:20I'm at a phone booth at LaGuardia.
00:52:22I couldn't reach you this afternoon.
00:52:24I just flew in.
00:52:26Why, is anything wrong?
00:52:28Ruby.
00:52:29Get Mr. Magellan and Mr. Achilles in here right away.
00:52:33What?
00:52:35All right, look.
00:52:35Go to my office.
00:52:36I'll meet you there.
00:52:43We're absolutely dead.
00:52:45Williamson sold us out for a payoff.
00:52:47He tipped off the big oil companies about our deal.
00:52:50They went right to the White House and exposed the government long.
00:52:53There's not a chance of putting it through.
00:52:55I don't get it, Marshal.
00:52:56You mean to say he could pull a complete double cross like this and you didn't even smell it?
00:53:00Williamson was engineering the whole thing.
00:53:02I was only handling a phase of it.
00:53:04What about the millions of dollars we got sunk in those tankers down in Panama?
00:53:06Well, I wish I could give you an answer to that, but I can't.
00:53:09Maybe you're cutting in on Williamson's payoff.
00:53:11Do you think I'd be here now if I were?
00:53:13You might.
00:53:14Look, gentlemen.
00:53:15I'm telling you the truth.
00:53:17I'm as sick about this thing as you are.
00:53:19All right, all right.
00:53:19Take it easy.
00:53:22You're sure nothing can be done, huh, Marshal?
00:53:24Positive, Charlie.
00:53:26That's about it.
00:53:28Good night, gentlemen.
00:53:32A billion-dollar deal, that lousy crook.
00:53:35A billion-dollar deal, Johnny.
00:53:36Williamson can't get away with this, Charlie.
00:53:38What do you mean he can't?
00:53:39He already did the pig.
00:53:40A billion-dollar deal.
00:53:41We can't let him get away with it.
00:53:44I think we'd better have a meet.
00:53:49You make the phone calls, Nick.
00:53:51Tell him to meet for the day after tomorrow.
00:53:53Big Harry's afraid of planes.
00:53:54That should give him time enough to get here.
00:53:55Numbers are in my private book.
00:53:56Come on, Charlie.
00:53:57I'll drop you at the hotel.
00:53:58Good night, Nick.
00:53:59Good night.
00:54:00So long, Nick.
00:54:00See you tomorrow.
00:54:08A meeting.
00:54:10From every territory in the country,
00:54:12they answered the summons.
00:54:14Names you seldom hear.
00:54:16Faces you rarely see.
00:54:18The high court of organized crime
00:54:21sitting in judgment.
00:54:22A judgment which is final.
00:54:25From which there is no appeal.
00:54:27Legally, we haven't got a leg to stand on.
00:54:29Williamson knows this.
00:54:31All we can do is take our losses
00:54:33and keep our mouths shut.
00:54:34Not only do we lose a billion-dollar deal,
00:54:36we've got to take a rap for ten million besides.
00:54:38What about our other contacts in Washington?
00:54:40Can't they put some pressure on?
00:54:41I've spoken to a few of the boys there.
00:54:43This thing is too hot.
00:54:44All the grease we've been spreading
00:54:45in this slouse makes suckers of us.
00:54:48Anything else, gentlemen?
00:54:49That's all, Frolic.
00:54:50I'll be in my office all afternoon
00:54:51if you need meat.
00:54:52Good day, gentlemen.
00:54:55The meeting's open for discussion.
00:54:57I see no reason for any discussion.
00:54:59This rap double-crossed us,
00:55:00cost us a fortune.
00:55:01The only thing to do is hit him in the head.
00:55:03Wait a minute, wait a minute!
00:55:06Williamson's an important man.
00:55:07He's got powerful friends.
00:55:08If we knock him off,
00:55:08it'll raise a stink from one end of the country
00:55:10to the other.
00:55:10He crossed us and he's got it coming.
00:55:12Like any other pig.
00:55:13I agree with Johnny.
00:55:14Hit him in the head.
00:55:15I've given us a lot of thought.
00:55:16I hate to say this,
00:55:17but the smart thing to do is lay off Williamson.
00:55:19Charlie, we can't let word get around
00:55:21that Williamson crossed us
00:55:22and got away with it.
00:55:23We'd be wide open
00:55:24for more double-crossings.
00:55:25I say vote right now.
00:55:27Before we vote,
00:55:28I think we should talk to Albert.
00:55:30I've taken into consideration
00:55:31what you men have said,
00:55:32but I'm thinking of the organization.
00:55:34There's no telling what'll happen
00:55:35if we knock Williamson off.
00:55:36To tell you the truth,
00:55:37I'm afraid of it.
00:55:39Mr. Delucci on the phone.
00:55:43Thanks, Nick.
00:55:44Hello?
00:55:45Hello, Albert.
00:55:46How are you?
00:55:47Oh, just fine.
00:55:48Fine.
00:55:49No, the boys are right here now.
00:55:51No, we haven't voted yet.
00:55:51We wanted to talk to you.
00:55:53What?
00:55:55Yeah, I understand, Albert.
00:55:57I'll tell them.
00:55:58They send their regards to you.
00:56:00Say hello to Ben and Anna for me, will you?
00:56:02Take care of yourself, Albert.
00:56:03Goodbye.
00:56:06Albert votes a hit.
00:56:08Let's take a vote.
00:56:09Start with you, Johnny.
00:56:11Hit.
00:56:12Hit.
00:56:13Hit.
00:56:13Hit.
00:56:14Hit.
00:56:15Hit.
00:56:17I don't agree, but I'll make it unanimous.
00:56:19Hit.
00:56:20Charlie, it's the only way to handle this.
00:56:22I hope you're right, Johnny.
00:56:24Who gets a contract?
00:56:25Williamson booked passage for Europe
00:56:26at the end of next week.
00:56:28He'll be in New York.
00:56:29Lupo gets the contract.
00:56:32Is there anything else?
00:56:34Meeting's adjourned.
00:56:35Sure.
00:56:36All right.
00:56:40They voted a hit, huh?
00:56:41And Albert went along with them.
00:56:42Who got the contract?
00:56:44Williamson will be in New York next week, that's all.
00:56:46The rest of them are so hot for it,
00:56:47what didn't you make one of them take it?
00:56:48Now, wait a minute, kid.
00:56:49That's the wrong attitude to have.
00:56:50We took a vote.
00:56:51It's the will of the majority, that's all.
00:56:53You want me to make it, Charlie?
00:56:55No, no, I don't.
00:56:56I don't want you mixed up in this.
00:56:58Matter of fact, I don't want you making no more hits.
00:57:01You know something, Nick?
00:57:02I got a funny feeling about this hit.
00:57:04I wish I could shake it, but I can't.
00:57:08He's got reservations at the hotel on Thursday.
00:57:09His boat sails on Saturday.
00:57:10He'll make the hit during that time.
00:57:11When he gets to town, tail him.
00:57:12Watch every move he makes.
00:57:13Here, here are some pictures of him.
00:57:14I know what he looks like.
00:57:15I've seen his kiss in a newspaper.
00:57:16I don't care what you've seen.
00:57:17Study him.
00:57:17Learn his face as well as you know your own.
00:57:19Then burn him.
00:57:19I don't want any slip-ups.
00:57:20Okay, Mr. Lupo.
00:57:21Now, after you make the hit, scatter the addresses I gave you.
00:57:23I'll send a guy with instructions where you're to go and hide out.
00:57:24Now, any questions?
00:57:26All right, now hear me good on this.
00:57:28I want it clean.
00:57:29Clean as a whistle.
00:57:30All right, get out.
00:57:45Call for Mr. Lewis Davis.
00:57:49He just came in.
00:57:50He's going to the elevator.
00:57:53Call for Mr. Lewis Davis.
00:57:56Call for Mr. Lewis Davis.
00:58:46Call for Mr. Lewis Davis.
00:58:48Oh, my God.
00:59:25I didn't eat all day.
00:59:27How about going off the Sheepshead Bay for a seafood dinner?
00:59:29I ain't hungry.

00:59:31You nervous?
00:59:32I just ain't hungry.

01:10:40why don't you let yourself go nick you're way off base iris no don't go nick don't go you're
01:10:47a beautiful dame iris one of the best i've seen and you treat me like it was christmas eve but
01:10:53no
01:10:53thanks i see through you like those silk dresses you wear you figure charlie's on the skids and it's
01:10:58safe to play i told you before and i'll tell you again i'm not interested
01:11:06we're going for murder in the first degree you'll never make it stick look at your star witness a
01:11:12hood with a police record a mile long his testimony will never stand up in court we'll give it a
01:11:16good
01:11:16try i think we've got loophole this time hello hartman good to see you frolly i thought you ought to
01:11:24be in on this bob wants to make a deal for his client what would you say to a manslaughter
01:11:29charge
01:11:29with minimum sentence manslaughter that would be a deal for your client all right how about you boys
01:11:36coming up with an offer if we can work this out you'll save the state a lot of time and
01:11:40money
01:11:41get your conviction and come out heroes want to give us a couple of minutes alone bob
01:11:46sure take your time i'll wait in leon's office
01:11:54what do you think chief well we've got lupo on the run and frolly wouldn't be here but if this
01:11:59thing drags out there's always the chance that wendler might get a loss of memory i've seen it
01:12:03happen before that's got me worried too he's already getting jittery asking if we've picked up lupo yet
01:12:09but manslaughter frolly doesn't expect to get that i think kincaid would go along with second
01:12:15degree murder i'm sure he would let's try it bob
01:12:23well what's the verdict murder two that's pretty rough they'll throw the book at him he'll never go
01:12:31for it it's the best we can do either that or we go for first degree all right i'll let
01:12:37you know in
01:12:38a day or two but i have a feeling i'm going to see you boys in court murder two what
01:12:46kind of a deal
01:12:46is that you know what this rap carries i'll spend the rest of my life and stir it at that
01:12:49fraud he
01:12:50calls himself a lawyer he said if we don't take it they're going for murder one all right let him
01:12:53let
01:12:53him try it i'm going to sweat this thing out i can sweat it out as long as the canary
01:12:56can you watch
01:12:57that when they turn yellow nick will fight this we'll make a dummy out of kincaid there's an awful
01:13:03lot of heat on the organization charlie what do you mean it's getting worse yeah not only here all
01:13:08over the country it's temporary nick believe me it's temporary the guys are behind me every one of them

01:17:24this thing is reaching national proportions gentlemen they're making a martyr out of
01:17:28williamson now already there are rumblings in washington of another senate investigating
01:17:33committee like the kefauver thing what are the chances of charlie's beating the rap it's hard to
01:17:37say if wendler breaks they're very good otherwise it means a long drawn out battle meantime we're
01:17:42getting slaughtered believe me this is going to get worse much worse if charlie gave himself up
01:17:46took the murder too rap i hate to say this but in my opinion it's the only logical solution
01:17:52that is without endangering the position of the whole syndicate i don't think he'll do it johnny
01:17:56he believes we should fight it that we can beat it charlie always said the organization came
01:17:59first that it was bigger than any one of us well he still feels that way johnny but he also
01:18:03feels
01:18:03that this is no time to get milk in our veins all right there's only one way to settle it
01:18:07we'll put
01:18:07it to a vote next hello iris go pack a bag a bag what for you're taking a trip and
01:18:17nothing fancy

01:18:58hello albert yes i was just explaining it to the boys we may beat the rap in time but the
01:19:05repercussions would be disastrous yes i believe it would relieve the pressure immediately
01:19:11i'll let you speak to him yeah yeah i know how you feel albert i mean the boys do too
01:19:19i'm afraid it's the only answer yeah goodbye albert that's all falling i'll be at my office

01:19:42so the boys want me to take the rap me looper like i can't believe it i'm sorry charlie but
01:19:49that's the way they voted even albert even albert is unanimous i can't believe that albert would go
01:19:57along with them i just can't believe it not albert i know it's a rough break charlie but that's the
01:20:00vote lousy ingrates after all i've done for the organization i am the organization nick
