Previously on Michael Hayes. The
Attorney General is coming to New York.

not engaging yourself.

Don't piss her off.

It's no joke, Michael. We're getting the
idea that your boss does not know how

to be a team player.

We? Did I say we?

Did you find out exactly when your crazy
brother's... We're gonna process Danny

out tomorrow.

I won't take him back.

Your dad's coming home tomorrow. You got
to see him, aren't you? My dad doesn't

fish. I won't be standing at Michael's
anymore.

Danny, are you in trouble? Danny, go
away.

For a while. But I don't want you to.

But Uncle Michael is going to take care
of everything.

Okay, Hayes, and when the band stops
playing, that's your cue. You come to

microphone.

Get the lead out, Hayes. You step to the
microphone.

Come on now, Hayes.

Your uncle has come all the way out here
to Brooklyn just to hear you rehearse.

Now make him proud.

of the fourth grade class of Our Lady of
Sorrows.

Today, we honor our country, our flag,
and our president.

The president I chose, Abraham Lincoln.

Over 130 years ago, President Lincoln
said, he said, we were engaged in a

civil war.

Give me your money!

Hurry up! Give me the money, man! Come
on! The brave man, who struggled here.

Hey, get out there! Hurry up!

The world will little note, nor long
remember what we say.

But it can never forget what they did.

to be dedicated to the great task
remaining before us, that we here have

resolved that these dead shall not have
died in vain.

Detective, thanks for calling. What do
you got?

Stick -up gun wrong.

Responding officer Higgins is dead.
Also, one customer. Three others are

injured. The gun used was an MP -561.
The gun you and ATF have been tracking?

That's why we called. Good you did. Five
of those are shown to be crime scenes

in other cities around the country.

We've been on the alert. So far, all we
got is two big crimes, two big

criminals. Yeah? What a big -time
cannon.

Yeah, that's it.

Apparently, the shooter froze and the
trigger sprayed everything in sight.

Higgins' jugular got sliced by some
flying class.

You got the burps?

We're all brothers.

Ennis was the shooter. He got hit pretty
bad. Little brother Tyus backed him up.

Matt, what's up, son?

Go ahead. We already got their
confessions.

Over there.

Is Miss Burrell in there?

No.

Are you family?

He didn't make it.

Where's his brother?

First to throw a car around the corner.
Thanks.

Nice, bro.

How old are you, Ty?

Thirteen.

Thirteen.

What are you doing robbing stores with
machine guns?

I was just on the door opening.

Like, and it's dead for me to do.

You're a lucky guy, Ty.

Two years older, you'd be looking at the
death penalty.

We didn't mean to hurt nobody.

Did you think that gun was a toy?

We just thought it'd scare everyone.

Well, it did a little more than that,
didn't it?

You've been going to Spofford for a
while.

You need a chance to get your priorities
straightened out.

And it's dead?

Yeah.

Where'd he get that gun from, Dias?

Some guy.

Friend?

I don't know.

He hangs around the gas station.

Heard somebody call him Blade.

Clarence Blade Jenks, one prior for
videotape piracy.

That's it.

He's all yours.

Thank you.

Yo, this is persecution, man.

The other detective checked out what I
said. They know I ain't lying.

Relax, Clarence. Nobody is connecting
you to the shooting.

Well, that's right.

I was at the club, you know, having a
Corvace and Coke, conversating. Must

been 20 people saw me there.

See, the problem is that the kid that
did the robbery said you sold him the

weapon.

No, sir.

He identified you in a photo, all right?

No, sir.

Weapons trafficking is a federal crime.

Ten years per count in a federal
penitentiary. No getting out after 22

Is that clear?

Hey, I'm a legitimate businessman.

You ever been to the third right
laundromat on Lenox? I own 15%. Why do

call you the Blade?

You know, man, it's just a name.

Seems to me that it would indicate
someone who knows an opportunity when

see one.

Would that be accurate?

What do you want?

Everything you got.

What do I get? If you give me the weapon
smuggler, I'll tell the judge you were

helpful.

You know, I think Clarence wants that 10
years.

Seems like it.

Clarence, who do you think we are?

You're the man with the badge.

Well, not exactly. We work for the
federal government. Because of the

nature of the weapon you sold, they
brought us in. Now, because of the

nature of my job, I can assure you that
it's better that we end up friends.

So it's up to you.

I'd rather be your friend.

This is Duke.

White guy.

Likes to hang out with the brothers.

Got a little taste for brown sugar, you
know what I'm saying?

He sold you the weapons?

One gun.

All right, I wouldn't call it buying. I
took it as payment because the dude was

looking for some blow.

And my cousin's friend had gotten clean
and needed a little ton load, you know.

And this white dude, Constantine, he's
going through the clubs, seeing where he

can cop, only he's a little light on the
cash money.

Wants to swap for the rifle.

What's Constantine's last name?

All I know was Constantine.

The dude talks like Dolph Lundgren or
something.

You think you'd recognize him if you saw
him again?

Now we're friends.

Like a...

I said, dude ain't even American.

It's hard to tell what he'll do. You
know what I'm saying? Just watch the

entrance, all right?

I was telling him once about that little
coyote cartoon.

You know, that little beep -beep dude?

He don't know what I'm talking about.

What you mean, beep -beep? You know, it
shows he ain't American. Just chill and

watch the entrance, okay?

If I don't get Constantine, you don't
get a deal.

You understand?

This T -Bone, he live in 135th Street.

LaTosha. She fun.

Clance. No, I'm just saying, he don't
show up here, maybe we check out

LaTosha's.

What about that dude there?

Yeah.

Disgusting.

Oh, you know what?

Give me your hand, man. Give me your
hand.

Hey,

hey.

Hey, we got a deal, right? I feel you,
bro.

I give you what you wanted.

Cousin T.

Yo, Matty Diaz. I used to go to
Natasha's cousin. Come here, man. How's

doing? I don't know you.

I want to talk to you for a second. Come
on, man.

You're a U .S. Marshal, sir. You need to
come with me.

I am immune.

You want to play like that, you're under
arrest.

I am immune.

Turn around and put your hands on your
head.

You're coming with me, you understand?

No. You're going to direct me. Come on.
You're coming with me.

You are violating international law.

Let's go.

His name is Konstantin Belisov.

He's claiming diplomatic immunity as an
attaché for the Peturin Consul.

Peturin Consul?

Any other run -ins with the law?

Nothing. All he seems to be known for is
for a fondness of nightclubbing and

African -American women.

Streben from State is waiting in the
conference room.

I didn't call him.

That was fast.

Mr. Strevin, Michael Hayes. Mr. Hayes,
thank you for seeing me. That's John

Manning. Mr. Manning, I won't take much
of your time. I understand you have a

Mr. Velasov in custody.

Mr. Velasov holds valid diplomatic
credentials. He's a deputy attache.

Petrura has been a country for, what,
ten or eleven minutes?

Minutes or centuries, Mr. Hayes. His
immunity is equally valid.

You have to release him immediately.

I take it that this is not about parking
tickets.

No.

We have a witness who has implicated Mr.
Velasov in federal firearms violations.

He is selling assault weapons to
teenagers. I'm sure you've seen the

Yes.

What happened yesterday was a tragedy.

And if Mr. Velasov were even indirectly
involved, he deserves the harshest

condemnation. But if I pursue this, do I
have the State Department's backing?

As long as you don't detain,
interrogate, or indict him. What if I

his immunity?

That's highly unlikely.

I understand that, but how do I do it?

We would petition the consulate, have
them arrange a meeting with the

ambassador. Let's do that. If he agrees
to meet with us, they will consider our

request and then politely tell us they
will handle it.

Which means what?

Once in a great while, they'll send the
offender home.

Not very satisfying.

I'd be the first to agree it's an
imperfect system, Mr. Hayes.

But I have, we have...

Colleagues have been arrested for
walking down some foreign street with

shirt sleeves rolled up. If letting one
man go protects them... This man is a

gunrunner.

Then call it a lousy system, but it's
the way it is. I want to see the

ambassador.

You're in luck he's in town, but you're
wasting your time.

I've made a career of it.

I'm sure you have employees like
Constantine, Mr. Harris. On the

Ambassador, I don't employ gunrunners.
No, no, what I mean is people in the

diplomatic corps.

Some of them because they are well
qualified and have a passion for their

Others have an uncle, a lover, business
partner.

Mr. Ellersdorf falls into the latter
category.

Regrettably, I am stuck with him.

Mr. Ambassador, this is a serious
charge.

I understand.

I abhor guns.

If it were up to me, all guns would be
banned.

Until that happens.

Would you be willing to waive Mr.
Velasov's immunity?

I think you wrote the answer to that,
Mr. Trebin.

Immunity is the cornerstone of
diplomacy.

Mr. Rassler, that is one of Mr.
Velasov's victims, his wife and child.

Victim? Mr. Velasov shot no one? Nobody
provided the weapon for the killer.

You have no proof? We have an
eyewitness.

Yes.

One Clarence Jenks, a felon.

Mm -hmm.

I believe you call this a jacket.

My training is in linguistics. I love
these idiomatic expressions.

But Jenks strikes me as a questionable
character. My whole life is about

questionable characters.

I'm afraid there's nothing I can do. You
can petition your president.

Tell him this man is putting military
weapons into the hands of children. Our

president will not be moved by the words
of Clarence James. Thank you very much.

You're free to go.

I'm waiting for an apology.

Beat it, will you?

Before democratization, my country had
no Stalinist secret police.

They would drag innocent people from
their cars and their houses, and no one

would see them again.

Nobody has rights.

Now we're free.

And America terrorizes citizens with
secret police.

I'm not going anywhere until I get an
apology.

Leave now, or I'm going to throw you out
the window.

Thank you for your promise with the
papers.

I'll do my best to get that bellison off
the scent hole.

You tried, Mr. Hayes.

It went pretty much the way I thought it
would.

Yes, let's see what happens.

Mr. Hayes, I want you to know that I
appreciate what you were trying to do

guns in the hands of children.

Mr. Diaz, Mr. Strebin from the State
Department.

Mr. Diaz. How are you?

I'm doing research.

Turns out a Peturian diplomat in
Washington was turned over for

about 16 months ago. What were the
charges?

Art forgery.

Turns out the guy did a pretty mean
Jackson Pollock. So does my kid.

Art forgery over gun smuggling.

He got lucky. Trust me. Sounds like it.
Gentlemen, take care.

What's up, girlfriend?

I'm chasing him. I'm not done on this.
I'm on this one.

Danny did this?

He got halfway through the album, too.

Why? I don't know. He won't talk to me
about his dad.

Did you two talk about him by any
chance? Yeah.

Yeah, I told him that his dad was a spy.

For the government on a secret mission.

Oh, I know. But, well, I mean, how else
am I going to explain the witness

protection program to a ten -year -old
kid?

I know, I know.

But he's obviously upset about
something. Right. Right?

Mm -hmm.

He needs to know the truth.

He deserves to hear it from you,
Michael.

Right?

Yeah.

Maybe you're right.

Look, he's coming here tomorrow night.

You offered. It's my late night at the
bar.

Okay. I think you're right.

I'll talk to him.

Michael. Yeah.

It's heating up.

Bellasov's girlfriend?

Mm -hmm. Latasha Meadows.

Making $400 a week at the house to set
this club.

Since meeting Constantine, she's living
in a $2 ,000 -a -month Riverview

apartment. And that's a boost.

Do we have her? We can get her.

Mr. Hayes.

Mr. Strebin. I don't want to interrupt.

Your secretary said you'd be here. No,
sit down.

Thank you.

I, uh... When Mr.

Diaz... Mr.

Diaz...

that the occurrence had waived immunity
on the forger. It stuck in my mind. It

seemed odd.

And frankly, I thought it untrue, no
offense.

So I checked into it.

I shouldn't have.

There's no way that's within my purview.

Go ahead.

I think I may have found out why,
because God is so uncooperative in our

It turns out that Belisav's father and
Khazad are old friends.

They were both jailed by the communists
when they were student dissidents.

Shared a cell for ten years.

So he's protecting the son of an old
friend.

Sounds like we don't have a shot. Maybe
we do.

Belisav's father is not only Khazad's
friend.

He's also the opposition candidate for
president.

Now, to my mind, the incumbent would
like nothing better than to have his

opponent's son labeled criminal.

So he'd go around Khazad straight to the
president.

We may not have to.

Kazan works for the president.

That's only so far he'll go in
protecting Belasov.

Do you have anything more than Clarence
Jenks' testimony?

One moment to talk to Belasov's
girlfriend now. You're suggesting we

with the case?

I'm suggesting that if Kazan sees the
evidence is strong enough, he'll cave.

Friend or no friend.

He's a career diplomat.

Like myself.

We're not famous for risking our jobs.

And if he doesn't cave?

Then we talk about an end run.

Mr. Hayes? Hmm?

I'm 100 % out of policy here.

I hope it's been helpful.

Natasha Meadows? Uh -huh. I'm Eduardo
Diaz. I'm a U .S. Marshal. I want to

to you about Constantine Belsov.

I've got nothing to say.

Did you know he was arrested for arms
trading?

Well, that's what you tell me. But I
know he's a diplomat who can't be

Yeah, that's right. We had to let him
go, and he'd probably go back to

And we'll have to settle for U .S.
citizens who might be involved, like his

girlfriend. I don't know nothing about
his business. You might be talking sad.

So you met Mr. Villathorpe down at the
club, huh? That's right.

Do you pay for this place?

No.

You ever seen him with machine guns,
automatic weapons, anything like that?

No. You ever talk about guns, import
them, sell them?

He talked about me.

I can believe that.

So he's not paying for this place. What
are you doing with him? There's not much

to look at.

I should be with a brother? No, brothers
are jokes, too. I'm just saying. My

personal business is my personal
business.

You got a storage locker?

No.

Quick store storage.

Looks like a bill addressed to you. I
have some furniture out there.

Some of my old ratty furniture.

Where's the locker?

Jersey.

Long Island.

How about you and I take a ride out
there and look around? Hell no.

Natasha, chances are that your boyfriend
is going home, leaving.

So whatever good thing the two of you
got going on is coming to an end.

Now I got a 17 -year -old black boy
wearing a toe tag and his 13 -year -old

brother struggling to hold on to what's
left of his life.

How long are we going to let people like
your boyfriend put guns in the hands of

our children? It's time we took some
responsibility for our own.

I don't know where the storage locker
is.

Constantine found it, and he said that I
can put some of my stuff in it. He had

the bills sent here. I don't know why.

He just told me to give it to him every
month.

We're supposed to have pockets of all
the keys, but it never happens.

The stuff from my old apartment, just
like I told you.

Who picked up the furniture?

Constantine and some other guys.

Other guys from the consulate? I didn't
recognize them.

End tables?

The only thing I know about is the stuff
from my old apartment.

Maybe I'll suit up a little bit, buddy.

Must

have

been a pretty rough neighborhood.

Look, like I told you before, I don't
know where those crates came from.

Ignorance is not a defense. I took him
down there. Why would I take him down

there if I had something to hide? You
took me down there because I found the

bill. You got to give us something.

Natasha, do you think Constantine
appreciates you? You're about to go to

for him. Do you think he cares?

What do you call that nail job there?

I don't know.

Sparkly moons.

You think she can get that done in a
joint? I doubt it.

What do you want me to give you? I need
you to connect Constantine to these

guns. Somebody is going to jail.

You choose.

I was with him when he delivered some.

So that's something. So I don't go to
jail, right? We need to know when,

and who.

We can get him to see the ambassador on
Friday. Oh, good.

Good. I want to add LaTosha Meadows to
that meeting.

I'll look into it.

Where is she? We've got her at a safe
house.

Is she credible?

She was there when Velasov sold weapons
to Jenks.

Good.

Great.

I filled in my supervisor.

He'd like me to debrief Latosha. So it
will just tell me where you've got her.

For what reason?

Well, if she knows what Velasov was
doing, she may have information on other

areas of interest involving Pachirian
affairs.

She's in a room at the Hotel Manchester.

Okay. On the condition that you keep us
informed.

Will do.

Be it that debriefing.

Wouldn't miss it for the world.

Katie!

Aren't you supposed to be upstairs
babysitting Natasha?

Yeah, but I thought that you guys... I'm
supposed to be serving here while he

talks, so where the hell are you going?

Well, back to the office. Those other
guys took us back to D .C. What guys?

Well, they said that you knew. What
guys?

Look, two guys came to the door, showed
me legitimate State Department

credentials. They said that the
interrogation was being transferred to

headquarters in Washington. And you
believed them? They said Mr.

Hayes okayed it. They knew my boss's
name, all the procedures, code

What am I supposed to do?

Is he in here?

You can't go in there, sir.

Mr. Hayes, if you wanted to see me, you
need to... Where's my witness?

I don't know.

When I told my boss about the meeting
with Natasha, he said he'd handle it

himself. He said he'd contact you. Well,
it slipped his mind.

So get him on the phone and find my
witness.

I can't. The operation has expired.

It is a mistake to play with me.

So find my witness.

Truth, Mr. Hayes.

This is the truth.

I do the very best I can.

I do not make policy. At the end of the
day, I go home and... Talk to me.

Talk to me, Mr. Revin.

They found out I gave you additional
information. They were not happy. How?

How did they find that out? Please,
you're putting me in a very difficult

position. You don't like it, do you?

What do you want from me? I helped you.

I want my witness.

I... Can't give her to you.

And now, I would like you to leave.

I'll be back.

Inform Lindsay that we cannot count on
Streben and that she's to proceed.

Right. I'll call her later.

Working on the homework.

Yeah.

What do you got?

Just some history junk.

History junk? What kind of Abe Lincoln
are you?

I'm not Abe Lincoln.

Oh, but you play him on TV.

Looking good.

Looking good.

You okay?

I thought that the point of these
sleepovers was for us to talk to each

You lied to me.

Kid said something to me today at
recess.

What did he say?

Jimmy Morelli thinks he knows everything
because his father's a cop.

Well, what did he say to you?

Something about my dad.

Why did you tell me my dad was on a
secret mission?

You lied to me, Uncle Mike.

Well?

Jimmy Morelli said that my dad was a
thief and a rat.

I called him he was a spy like you told
me, and everybody just laughed.

Hmm.

Hmm. Well, it sounds like you're ready
to hear the truth about it.

You're right. Your dad was not on a
secret mission.

Your dad committed some crimes in the
past, and he put himself in what's

a witness protection program to make it
right with the government.

So you're right.

But the important thing is the last time
I saw him, he told me to tell you that

he loved you very much and that every
day he was going to be gone, he was

to miss you.

That's what happened.

We need to make a deal.

From now on, every time you and I speak,
we speak the truth to each other.

Agreed?

Yeah.

Do you want me to speak to this guy,
Morelli's father?

That's okay. I can handle Jimmy Morelli.

Michael, I've stolen a word from the
State Department. They're not returning

of our calls. You talked to Strevin?
Can't find him anywhere. Okay, call my

friend, the Attorney General, and tell
her the State Department stole my

witness. Right.

Michael, Lindsay's in your office. She's
found something.

What do we got?

The topic is U .S.-Pature relations.

The principal source of income in
Petrura is handmade wooden dolls and

sandals. The GMP is about what Mel
Gibson makes for one movie.

Hence, Velasov selling weapons.

But their cash flow situation may
change.

Why? Have you ever heard of Avoli? No.
It's a consortium of eight U .S. oil

companies. They want to build an oil
pipeline from the Caspian Sea to the

Mediterranean.

They're offering a lot of money for the
land use rights, but their president

doesn't want it because he feels that it
infringes on their sovereignty.

It would make him a very unpopular
incumbent.

Obviously, the oil companies are going
to back the opposing candidate,

Belousov's father. Yes, they will.

Yes, they will.

Just like we did with the Shah 50 years
ago.

Trade the people's interests with oil.

That was about oil, too, wasn't it?

I want to dig into this consortium.

Well, let me see if I can find a name.

Give me a minute, will you? Yeah.

Mr. Strabo.

Joe, my name, I, uh... That's right.
Come on in.

Come on in.

I'm going to lose my job, you know.

Talking to you is going to cost me my
job.

I haven't compromised you.

I don't even know why I'm here.

We know about the pipeline.

They don't do these things that are with
me, you know.

The pipeline will help Ebola, which will
create jobs, American jobs.

Is there something you need to tell me?

They're sending her to Paris.

LaTosha Meadows.

They said she could go anywhere in the
world she wanted. She chose Paris.

When did she go?

I had to call in favors, make some
people think I needed to know.

Her flight leaves sometime this
afternoon.

The good news is I got that information.
The bad news is that they booked her

on. Ten separate flights under five
separate names. You made the right

Joan, find me a duty judge. I need a
court order to prevent a takeoff and

me Eddie.

Okay. All I did was answer the phone. I
was the guy who took your call. Now I'm

paying for it with my career.

Let me protect you.

Oh, thank you, Mr. Hayes, but you're
either very naive or have an inflated

of your own capability.

Judge, you got a minute?

I'll be right back.

Natasha Meadows is crucial to my
investigation.

I know, I know. When you told me the
State Department's... The State

may have their own agenda, but as an
officer of the court... Michael, are you

going to tell me my duty here? No, sir,
but I need this lady.

Well, then you shouldn't have let her...
Your Honor, I have a duty with a weapon

provided by this guy, Bellas. Hayes, are
you listening to me? That gun, Your

Honor, cost less than the lunch you just
bought that lady, so please, give me a

break.

Please.

You owe me, Hayes. I owe everybody, Your
Honor.

Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your
attention, please?

We will be delaying take -off for a few
minutes due to a security danger.

Nothing to worry about. We will resume
departure shortly.

Merci.

Don't see who I'm looking for.

Maybe if you just give me a name. Merci
beaucoup, I'm sure, but chances of her

using her real name are a hundred and
one.

Not here.

Thank you.

I checked every flight.

She's here somewhere. I know it. Where
are you?

I'm at the gate.

Just stay put.

I got a hunch you two are where she
might be. They just wouldn't give up.

put. I'm coming right at you. Yeah.

Bingo, I found her. A couple monkeys
from the state got her in the room. They

won't let anybody near her. Security
thing. I'm secure.

My name is Michael Hayes. I'm here to
retrieve my witness, Latasha Nelson.

What? Are you nuts? You know who you're
dealing with? You're too little D and

too little dumb.

Hey, take a walk, fool.

Edward.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you out of your
mind? Listen to me. I'm going to ask you

one more time. I want my witness.

Look, you can ask me a thousand times.
She's getting on that plane. Shoot him.

What? Okay, all right, all right. Take
it easy. Calm down.

Go ahead, take her.

What the hell did you do that for?

That's for making me wait.

Let's go.

There you go.

Thank you.

Now, you need to understand that I am
not charging you with a crime. I haven't

done anything.

Okay, now, you were willing to
cooperate. I assume you still are. Those

said you were dropping the case, letting
Constantine go.

That's not true, LaTosha. I need you to
tell the ambassador everything you know

about Belisov and these guns.

The guy out here wants to see you. He's
flashing some pretty heavy credentials.

Are we in it now?

One minute.

He's from State.

Yes, John.

Michael, this is Undersecretary Julian.

Hi, Julian.

I don't think you understand the
gravity. You know what? I don't mean to

you, but I have something going on in
there, so we need to be quick.

Okay.

Let her go.

Well, it's a little late for that.

You leave me no other option.

This is a temporary restraining order
prohibiting you from any further

of this witness until there can be a
full hearing. Is there a court date set

yet? Tomorrow, 10 a .m. 10 a .m.
tomorrow.

See you then.

File that for me, will you, John?

This guy is finished.

What do you think, Latasha?

I won't go to jail.

That's what you said, right?

That's right.

I guess I don't have a choice.

How many guns did Constantine sell to
Clarence?

I saw him sell three.

And did you see him sell to anyone else?

Twice to this other guy that I know, and
a few times to some kids who hang

around the club.

Where is the waiver recommendation?

You're under arrest.

I am a diplomat. Not anymore.

Your country waived your immunity.

Mr.

Bellator, you are under arrest. I am a
diplomat. Let's go.

You have to arrest me.

And there will be no guns in the hands
of your children.

Hey.

Hey.

Remember me?

Yeah. Is that from the cop car?

Why did you come up here?

I heard your mother wasn't able to
visit.

She don't want to.

So how you doing?

Well, food's no good.

You know, I read the statement you made
to the police. I talked to some of the

psychologists who interviewed you.

That whole convenience store thing, I
think you were born with that. Man, it

doesn't make no difference now.

I just want you to hear it from somebody
who doesn't work here, who's not saying

it to a hundred other kids.

Tyus, when you get out of here, you'll
still be young.

You'll still have a chance to turn your
life around.

Doing what?

Whatever you want.

What do you like?

How long before I get out of here?

Ty, you're not listening to me.

No matter how long, you'll still be
young.

How long?

End of 13.

Yeah, right.

Mr. Hayes.

You all right?

I'm all right.

I don't see how that would be possible.

I'm no longer a diplomat.

What are you talking about?

It doesn't matter.

You have enemies, Mr. Hayes, and you've
just made yourself small.

Welcome to the dollhouse.

Look at me.

Look where I am at the end of
everything.

My job was my life, Mr. Hayes. It's up
to you.

It's not for you, Mr. Hayes.

It's not for me, either.

I certainly thought about it. You don't
need that.

Oh, don't I?

You'll watch yourself, Michael.

You'll be careful.

Be careful of what?

This may help you to understand.

don't follow me

He said something to me today at recess.

What did he say?

Jimmy Morelli thinks he knows everything
because his father's a cop.

Well, what did he say?

Something about my dad.

Why did you tell me my dad was on a
secret mission?

You lied to me, Uncle Mike.

Well?

Jimmy Morelli said that my dad was a
thief and a rat.

Is that the best you can do?

I'm waiting.

I'll be here.
