The phone is ringing.

Well, why don't you answer it?

I'm the cook. I don't do phones.

What? Nothing, nothing.

Archie Funker's place.

Yes, we serve Chinese as long as they
behave themselves.

Well, why don't you say what you want?

No, no, no. There ain't no chop suey
here.

Try Hop Sings.

I don't know how to spell it. Do I look
like a chink?

I'm going over to the bank. I'll be back
in an hour. An hour at the bank?

Yeah, they serve better coffee there.

Here you go, Veronica.

Thanks,

Harry.

Hey, Harry, who's your all -time
catcher?

Johnny Bench.

Oh, you're nuts. Yogi Berra could catch
rings around Johnny Bench. Why'd you ask

me? Yogi couldn't carry Bench's glove.

Yogi Berra's the greatest catcher what
lived.

You're just saying that because your
wife looks like Yogi.

Where's Uncle Archie?

He just went to the bank.

And what are you doing here in the
middle of the morning?

I ran away from school.

Hey, you shouldn't do that till you're
at least 12.

You can't steal my money!

Oh, well, no problem.

Veronica, one junior miss lunch.

Sure. Jose, make a nice chicken sandwich
to go.

Veronica, estoy trabajando ahora. No
puede hacer un... Por favor, para

Steph, don't let those other girls push
you around.

Belt them.

This was a boy.

Hit him with a brick.

How genteel.

I'm in the restaurant, honey.

Listen, you sit here, right here until
your sandwich is ready, okay?

The next time you come in, you can use
the family entrance.

I tried that door, but it's locked.

Oh.

Well, it's time to open it.

There's a man in a car out there who
knows you.

In a car?

A big, long, black one. He's sitting in
it.

He wanted to know if this was your
place.

Oh. Oh.

Let's see what that's about.

Somebody out there you know?

Yeah.

Vinnie Mulvaney.

Mulvaney the Hood?

The same.

Is he coming in here?

Why would he come into a place like
this?

Here's your sandwich, kiddo. And a slab
of peach pie.

How are you here?

No dice.

Why can't I stay and help Molly wait
tables?

You go get your education.

Why do grown -ups always say that?

Because they don't know what else to
say. Why not?

Of course. They didn't get their
education.

Oh, okay.

Bye.

What's the matter, Murray?

Nothing.

There's a guy out there in a car.

One of these guys.

Somebody you know?

Yeah, yeah. Used to be like a brother.

Very handy guy, too. He fixed anything.

Horse races, basketball games, price
fighting.

You know, when Vinnie Mulvaney got
kicked out of school, the mob made him

first draft choice.

Vinnie Mulvaney?

I've seen his name in the papers.

Murray, go out and ask him in for lunch.
I think it would be a thrill to meet

him.

You ain't gonna start serving riffraff
in here, are you?

When we refuse to serve riffraff, you'll
be the first to be informed.

Hiya, Murray.

Hey, Benny.

What do you say?

How are you? Long time no see. That's
right. A long time. It's a long time.

Yeah. You know, I'm in business here.

Yeah, yeah. I see you on a list up in my
office.

So I took out my pen and wrote, okay,
right next to you.

Come on, sit down. I'll wait on you
myself.

No, no, no. Thank you. I'm joining a
friend over here.

Hey.

You haven't changed, Murray.

Oh, come on, Benny. You're kidding me
now, huh?

Yeah, that's right. I'm kidding you.

We all change plenty.

That's why we ought to get together more
often, so we won't forget what we look

like, huh? Right.

Your mother still alive? Oh, yes, sir.
And still in the same old place. You're

still making some of those good blitzes,
huh? Yeah, I guess so. Well, sometimes.

You say hello to her, huh? I will, I
will.

This is a friend of mine, Tony Bremer.

Mr. Bremer?

Used to be a business...

competitor, but now we're in
partnership, so we're having a drink

the deal.

Hey, that's just terrific.

Well, what brings you here?

Well, we want to be in our nice, neutral
place. Right, Tony?

That's right.

Hey, Murray.

Bring us a bottle of bourbon and buy
drinks for them barflies in there.

Okay.

Hey, boys.

Hey, hey, hey.

Did a girl just come in?

I know, Mr. Bernard. A gentleman out
there just placed a complete set of

presidents.

Drinks for everybody.

On Vinnie Mulvaney.

Hey, thanks, man.

Here you are, boys. Thanks a lot.

I'll have the usual.

Champagne.

Champagne, too.

I like a drink I can hear.

Hiya, Mr. Mulvaney.

I'm Veronica Rooney, the cook here.
Hello, good -looking.

And this is... Get lost, lady.

I can take a hint.

Here you go, Vinnie.

Enjoy yourself.

Need anything else? You just yell, huh?
Thanks, buddy.

Now we can wrap this thing up in two
minutes, Mulvaney. Yeah, just like I

on the phone. Anything you say.

We've just got to have peace.

I don't want to get killed.

Now take a map.

Draw a line from Fort Totten down to
Long Beach.

Everything on the island west of that
line is mine.

East is yours.

Simple? You got it.

And you pull back everybody working for
you on our side of the line.

Take a couple of weeks.

Days.

A deal.

Deal.

Hey, Murray.

Yeah.

Where's your washroom?

Right through the door.

And to the left.

We'll drink on that, Tony.

Hey, Murray.

Will you go to the door and wait for my
driver to bring up the car? Right away.

Hey, Tony.

Can I drop you some weed? Oh, thanks. I
got my own car.

Maybe you'll come to my birthday party.
Have a mother's house tonight.

Oh, glad to, Vinnie.

Glad everything's gonna work out the way
it used to be. The way it should be.

I'm sorry if we ever had grief.

Hold on to that drink till I get back.

Hey, Mr. Mulvaney, don't let the blue
water bother you. We put that in.

Who are you waving at, Murray?

Vinnie wants his car.

Come here, come here. What? Get inside,
get inside, quick. Murray!

Don't ask any questions. What? Come
here, look. I think I'm being made a

I hope to God I'm not.

What's the matter with you?

Nothing with me.

This is awful.

Somebody better call the police.

I said I'd handle everything.

Oh, look at this. What are you talking
about out there? Can't you go help your

children, your wives, or whatever?

Get a set of those pictures to the DA's
office, will you? Right away.

Look at this.

I leave you in charge for one hour. You
turn Archie Bunker's place into the O

.K. Corral.

Now, listen.

Get off my back. Don't yell at me. I'm
only trying to help you.

As far as these cops are concerned, all
you got to do is remember three things.

What? Zhoosh, zhoosh, and zhoosh.

Doctor, tell them what happened. Oh, oh,
oh, oh.

You tell them what happened. And A, the
cops. are going to get you, or two

Mulvaney's crowds are going to get you,
or C. Bremer's crowds are going to get

you.

Don't you understand you're in the
middle?

In fact, buddy, you're in the triddle.

Now, Murray, you had no idea Mulvaney
was coming in here, or Bremer either?

Nope, no idea.

But you are a friend of Mulvaney's. No,
no, he ain't.

But that's what Murray said.

Oh, come on, he ain't seen Mulvaney in a
hundred years, you call that a friend?

Penny and I were kids together.

Did you owe him a favor?

No.

Somebody tried to kill your friend
Mulvaney about a week ago.

Did you know that?

No. Did Mulvaney at any time say,
Murray, I came here to your place

need your help?

He just said a few words, that's all.

And the guys with the guns didn't come
in until Mulvaney went to the toilet.

Now listen, you know what I think?

I think Mulvaney went in there to the
toilet.

so that nobody would know he'd done
this.

Thanks for the tip.

Is anybody else in here besides the guys
we know?

Yes,

there were two customers at that table
over there. They were strangers.

Did either one of them go to that door
at any time and maybe give a signal?

Mulvaney is going to get away with this,
fellas, if that's all you can tell us.

We can't tell you no more.

Terrific.

Come on.

Well, now, listen, there ain't no sense
in getting sore at us, you know. I mean,

we're just a couple of businessmen.
We're trying to make a living here in a

couple... Oh, God, I feel weak.

Yeah, well, don't take on too much
strength there.

What are we going to do?

Why don't you go and cook something?

There's no one to cook for.

Well, why don't you practice?

Murray, you done good.

No, I didn't.

Murray, did you tell him that it was you
who signaled them guys?

Certainly not. What the hell do you want
Murray to do, hang himself?

Murray didn't know what he was doing,
Mulvaney.

Then we all got a dummy up here.

Mug was murdered here.

A human being!

But you don't have to make out like it
was Father Finnegan of Boys Town.

Trevor and his crowd was trying to knock
off my baby. Don't you understand? I'm

only trying to protect an innocent guy.

Veronica, give me a drink, will you?
Well, take hers.

I ain't as weak as you think.

Look, if we all back... Maury Up ain't
got enough to clear him. If we shoot off

our mouths to the cops, we're all liable
to wind up shaking hands with Jimmy

Hoffa.

Oh, God, ain't there no way to put
Mulvaney behind bars?

No, no, no. The Lord don't put them guys
behind bars for killing people, don't

you understand? Only for important
things, like tax erosion.

Mulvaney's lawyer could have him out
like that on some kind of a risk.

Then he could come around here himself
in person, make habeas corpus out of a

whole damn bunch of us.

Oh, God, oh, God, oh, God, oh, God.

Well, you're getting weak. Have some
strength.

You're right.

I remember once I broke a date with
Footsie Magliano, the cripple bookie.

You know what he done? Because I broke
one wealthy date.

invited me to dinner.

Who cares?

The main course was my canary.

Try not to talk to me for the rest of
the day.

of the most important witnesses just
forgot everything he's seen.

Oh, that's okay, Arch. I can tell him
everything.

I'm going to ignore you because you
ain't real.

Don't worry about me, Arch. When those
guns were going off, I was busy

extricating a fly from my champagne.

I read where flies is all protein.

for the recommendation, Hank. But if you
don't mind, I'll pick out who I drink

with. You see, fellas, it ain't the law
so much I'm worried about as the hoods.

The clans.

Shut up!

Barney.

I'm hip.

If I'm gonna get shot, it'll be by a
jealous husband.

He's an intelligent man.

Mr. Van Rensselaer, I'm very worried
about you.

Arch, I wouldn't make a good witness.

Oh, but, geez, you know everything
that's going on. You know, you got ears

the back of your head.

Arch, you're right.

There were two of them. Young fellas.
Could have been college boys.

One of them had on a turtleneck sweater.

Ain't that amazing?

How the hell could he know that?

Harry told me.

Listen, I could be wrong.

Hey, deal me out of this. I got a
family.

Archie Blunker's place.

It's for you, Arch.

Well, can't you take a message there?
Don't you see I'm over here trying to

lives?

He can't come to the phone. Can I take a
message?

Mr. Van Rensselaer, what do you think?

The guy is in the middle.

Is he free of responsibility?

He's not free of it, but he shouldn't
take on too much of it.

If I let Vinnie get away with this
murder, we all lose.

You know, I think it all depends on how
important a man's kneecaps are to him.

Who was that?

George, the cop.

Well, what do you want?

To tell us something.

Oh, jeez, what, what, what?

Vinnie, his girlfriend, and his lawyer
were just shot right in front of his

mother's house in Kew Gardens.

Not for long.

What are you doing here?

I got a message that he wanted to see
me.

Go on in.

I shouldn't have used you that way.

It's all right.

I hope you didn't get in trouble.

No.

No, I'm in the clear.

I knew you wouldn't tell the cops.

You couldn't.

I just saw it my way.

Oh, this reminds me of old times.

When we was kids, running away from the
cops and scrambling over the fences.

You scrambled over the fences?

I always got caught.

Yeah.

But I'm the guy that wound up with the
holes in them.

Oh, my.

Remember your first fight in the old
Broadway arena?

Yes, I do.

You were my manager.

And you won.

That's right.

That crummy promoter found out I was
only 16 and gave me my money.

Until I stuck a rod in his belly and
took it off.

Then you kept it all.

Thank you.

Did he die?

Yep.

What'd he want you for?

This talk.

You know, I thought maybe he might want
to leave you or something.

Listen, some of them mapperosiuses, you
know, they've got fortune stashed all

over the place.

No way he did leave me something.

Yeah, what?

He may realize how lucky I am.

Oh.

Well, with that and one dollar, you
could buy yourself a cigar.
