[monitor beeping]

[coughing]

Are you all here?

Yes, daddy.

My whole family by my side.

Doctor said you had somethingyou wanted to tell us.

Come closer.

I-- [coughs] I just
want to tell you--

[coughs]

Don't go, daddy.

Not yet.

To tell you--

[monitor flatlines]

I can't believe he's gone.

Me neither.

Without saying a word.

Yeah.

The bastard.

I can't believe he took
his secret to the grave.

Just like him.

It's all your fault. Youshould have gotten here sooner.

There was a lot of traffic.

OK, OK, let's not panic, huh?

There's still the will.

And Freddie,
could you sit here,

please, next to your sister?

Thank you.

And Mac, over here, please.

Your father had
an unusual request

and that he wished to
address each of you

at the reading of his will.

Well, I want to thank
you all for coming.

You never thought you'd seethe old man again, did you?

Now first, to Freddie, whoalways spent too much money

on fast cars and faster women, Ileave my 1963 Plymouth Valiant.

That piece of junk?

It lasted longer than anyof your three marriages.

And now to my son, Mac,who never did his homework

and subsequently failed
at every business he

went into, I leave
my antique desk.

Gee, thanks, Dad.

Didn't I tell you itwas going to be like this?

And now to Ginny Mae, who
never had enough money,

I leave my prized
coin collection.

It's empty.

Gosh, it's empty.

I never got around
to starting it.

Seemed like a good
idea for you, though.

[laughs] And finally, Ileave the house to you all.

I was thinking of selling
it after your mother

died, but you all grew upin that house, and, well, it

always--

it always seemed to me
like part of the family.

Everything I have of
value is in that house.

[laughs] Well, I gotta go.

A lot of people up
here to see, and I

can't keep your mother waiting.

Oh, Stuart.

Thanks for arranging all this.

You're welcome.

I only paid half your fee.

Well, I always thought
you charged too much.

And what are you going to do?

Come after me?

[laughs]

Is that it?

Well, if you'll
excuse me, I'll leave

you all alone in your grief.

[interposing voices]

I want the car.

You can have the car.

Now, what about the money?

Where's the money?

Where is the money, Freddie?

I don't know
where the money is.

I want to know where the money.

All right, all right,
he gave us the answer.

"Everything I had of
value was in the house."

He was smiling when he said it.

He was leaving us a clue.

It is something he would do.

Do you think he hid
the money in the house?

We sold the house.

You sold the house
before he died?

Yes.

I figured, what
the hell, I didn't

think he'd give it
to us, and I didn't

want it to end up in probate.

Oh, great.

This is just great.

Yo, Mac, Mac.

This is not so bad.

Who did you sell the house to?

Hey, I want to thank youagain for picking me up.

Can't wait for you
to see the place.

Tony, how did you
manage to buy a house?

Took every penny I had.

You had enough for
the down payment?

Well, no, but
Grandma Pucelli did.

You ripped off
your grandmother?

No, she loaned me the money.

At a very high interest
rate, I might add.

You're going to be
making a right up here.

Something about me
being a bad risk.

How much did you
pay for the place?

$125,000.

Hey, interest rates arelow, prices are dropping,

it's a great time to buy.

You know, Tony, it's good
to see you selling down,

thinking about your future.

It's nice.

Plus, it's the way to
find chicks nowadays.

I mean, I was just readingan article in the magazine.

They came to the same
conclusion I did.

Women are not interestedin Porsches and Mercedes.

Equity.

That's what they want.

It's a sign of stability.

You're going to be makinga left, the third house

from the corner.

This is great.

Yeah, sure it is.
I can't wait to see it.

Come in and have
a cup of coffee.

I'd love to have
a cup of coffee.

Maybe a cannoli.
- Yeah.

Third house.

Well, I don't have any.

The third house.

Nice yard.

It was here two days ago.

I don't know much
about real estate, Tony,

but I think you overpaid.

Where the hell is my house?

[MUSIC - BILLY IDOL, "HOT IN THE CITY"]

I feel a beat on
the street tonight.

The lights are right andit feels all right tonight.

It's a hot summer night,
and I'm ready tonight.

It's a hot summer night,
and it feels so right.

It's a hot summer night,
and I'm ready tonight.

It's a hot summer night,
and it feels so right.

It's a hot summer night,
and I'm ready tonight.

It's a hot summer night,
and it feels so right.

Hot!

POLICEMAN: You say thehouse is about 40 years old?

TONY: 41.

It was built in 1949.

POLICEMAN: Uh-huh.

Any distinguishing features?

TONY: Was a white woodhouse with a green awning

and a front porch with a rail.

POLICEMAN: And when did
you last see the house?

Two days ago on my
way to the airport.

I got back the thing was gone.

Look, is this is going
to take much longer?

I'm really upset.

No prints.

You want a chalk outline
around the house?

No, I think the
foundation will do.

See if you can
find any witnesses.

You have a picture of the house?

Yeah, I took a Polaroid
a couple of days ago.

Nice porch.

What kind of window
treatments were you

thinking about for the inside?

Plantation shutters.

Oh, those are nice.

My wife wants to go with those.

You're not going to
keep that, are you?

It's-- it's the only when I got.

POLICEMAN: Look, I'll
make a copy of it,

I'll get it right back to you.

I promise.

Can you think of anybody whomight have it in for you?

[sigh] Nobody.

Everybody.

Thanks.

My friend.

Guy next door says
he saw the house

get pulled off the propertyright around midnight.

Says the flatbed pull
it into the street, made

a left-hand turn, thatwas the last he saw of it.

Was their name on the truck?

No.

All right.

We're going to put out
an APB on the house.

You leave a number where wecan get in touch with you.

Thanks.

You OK?

Yeah, yeah.

I can handle it.

Well, I'm sure the insurancecompany will cover the loss.

What do you mean
I'm not covered?

You're covered for fire,vandalism, hurricane, tornado,

a car driving through
the living room wall,

a plane crashing into
the house, and even

a wrecking ball hittingthe wrong house by mistake.

Great.

What about theft?

No.

You're covered for thecontents of the house, not

the house itself, no.

Are you sure?

Yes, absolutely.

Well, what am
I supposed to do?

I suggest you find the house.

If you can return
it to the property,

we can pay you off
for any damage.

Otherwise--

Otherwise what?

Otherwise you areliable for the replacement

value of the structure itself.

Which is?

Given a land value of $50,000in that neighborhood, the house

itself would be
valued at $75,000.

It's all broken down
on your tax bill.

$75,000?

Mm-hmm.

I hope the police can
locate it for you.

If not, there is a
provision in your policy

that covers you hiring
an outside agency

to recover your property.

An outside agency?

You know, an investigativefirm or private detective.

Hmm.

Oh.

You realize I have to
report this to the bank?

[inaudible] I've been
coming to this bank--

All my money out of this bank.

That'll teach them.

Hey, hey.

Hey!

What did the bank say?

Oh, they're real nice.

Probably going to have to geta job there to pay him back.

I'm going to be working
at the drive up teller

till I'm 80, stuffing moneyin those little tubes.

Oh, come on.

It's not too bad.

Not that bad?

I'm making payments
on a vacant lot.

All right, let's
start at the beginning.

Who would want to steal a house?

Who the hell could
steal our house?

You're right.

There can't be more than acouple places in town that

can handle a job like that.

Listen, I'll tell you what.

We'll split up.

You know anything about
the previous owner?

Some old guy in the hospital.

I never met him.

The real estate agenthandled all the paperwork.

All right, see what youcan find out about the guy.

I'll have Suzanne
check out the movers.

SUZANNE: Really?

Oh, thanks a lot.

All right.

Bye.

Oh, good, you're here.

I got good news and
I got great news.

I'm listening.

There are only three
companies in town

licensed and qualifiedenough to move the house.

That's the good news.

What's the great news?

One of them reported
a theft last night.

MOVER: I already beenthrough this with the police.

I just want to know who
hired you for the job.

MOVER: Like I told them.

A guy come in, had the
deed to the property,

paid cash up front,
which we require.

End of report.

Can I see the contracts?

Cops took it.

What's it to you anyway?

It was my friend's
house and your truck.

[phone ringing]

Yeah?

TONY: Hey, I found the owner.

Great, where is he?

PREACHER: Walter
Larson was a man

full of life, full of humor.

A simple man who led ahappy, but modest existence.

You can learn a lotabout a man at his funeral.

His family, his friends.

Lots of clues, Tony.

Lots of clues.

TONY: That woman when
the house closed.

She sign the page?

Maybe those are his kids.

PREACHER: He was a manwho loved his family more

than life itself.

What about those guys?

BOOKER: Feds.

Probably worked
for the government.

A career civil
servant, he gave back

to this country in service.

Now that guy over
there, I don't know.

Cousin, maybe?

Maybe he owed some money.

He was a man who asked
nothing of his friends

or his devoted family.

[sobbing]

I looked in the
obvious places.

Fireplace, closets, and
I couldn't find a thing.

Listen, Freddie, I think whenwe start looking for the money,

there should always
be at least two

of us present at the same time.

All right.

And I don't think weshould stop till we find it.

Right.

We'll work around the clock.

When do we sleep?

- We sleep in shifts.
- Good.

Good idea.

We'll take shifts.

How about the first shiftto be me and Mac, huh?

No, no, I can go first.

Make it me and Mac.

But don't you
have to go to work?

I could call in sick.

Look, the important
thing is the faster

we do this, the better.

The guy who bought the house isbound to be out there looking.

He can look all he wants,he's not going to find it.

- Are you sure?
- I'm positive.

I put in a safe place.

Where-- where is
the house, exactly?

Believe me, there
is no way anybody's

going to spot this thing.

You're a genius.

All right, let's go throughthis whole thing again.

What time did the
mover report the theft?

4:30 in the morning.

Mm-hmm.

They move houses in
the middle of the night

to avoid traffic, right?

Yeah, and they move
really slow, too.

Something like 5 miles an hour.

Now, what time did the
neighbor say the house

was pulled off the property?

He said right before midnight.

That leaves 4 and 1/2
hours unaccounted for.

Plenty of time
to stash a house.

That means the
mover has gotta be

in on this, because
the police said

they don't have a contract.

Freeze.

Turn around real slow.

Easy, easy.

I'm not going anywhere.

Who the hell are you, man?

And what are you doing in here?

I'm a private investigator.

Oh, really?

Well, so am I.

Who hired you?

I don't think that's
any your business, man.

Who hired you?

Well, actually, I'mhelping a friend of mine.

Tony D'Angelo.

D'Angelo?

Yeah.

That's the clown who hired me.

You're kidding me.

No.

Short guy, a real wise ass.

Yeah that's him.

I'm Dennis Booker.

[car tires screeching]

Fatz Turner That's
Fatz, with a Z.

With a Z. Got it.
[police sirens]

You send invitations, man?

Freeze!

Put it down, now.

Friends of yours?

You crazy, man?

Not dressed like that thing.

So you're working
with a partner now, huh?

No.

We're both working
for Tony D'Angelo.

Separately.

Yeah, well,
you're stepping all

over a federal investigation.

They've had that movingcompany staked out since Willie

reported his flatbed was taken.

Yeah, well, what about him?

We haven't picked up.

He's not saying a word.

Why are the feds sointerested in Tony's house?

15 years ago there wasa robbery at the US Mint.

Walter Larson worked there.

They always suspected
him, but they could

never pin anything on him.

And the feds think the
money's in the house.

Ooh, did you can think thatup all by yourself, genius?

OK, you guys are
free to go now.

Just do me a favor, will you?

Keep the lines of
communication open.

Communication is my specialty.

I'm not telling you a thing.

Hey you already put my button the line once back there.

I don't need anybody
getting in my way.

Your way?

Let me explain them to you, man.

If you think I like this
any better than you do,

you're bugging, because
I'm not pressed.

But I am getting $300
a day to find a house,

and that's one house
that I'm going to find.

Wait, wait. $300 a day?

- $300 a day.
- Plus expenses?

Plus expenses.

You got beef, take
it up with that clown

friend of yours, D'Angelo.

I'm out of here.

You wanted to see me?

Yeah.

Does the name Fatz
Turner ring any bells?

You met my main man, huh?

Yeah.

Why exactly did you hire
another detective, Tony?

Well, I--

I figured two heads
are better than one.

And you've figured your friendcould do a it for free, right?

All right, all right.

I'm sorry.

I was out of line.

So?

You're going to fire him?

Well, I kind of already
gave him a large advance

from the insurance company.

[clears throat]
Maybe we ought to see

if he comes up with anything.

Did your PI happen to
tell you that there was

a robbery from the
US Mint 15 years ago,

and that the feds think
Walter Larson did it

and hid the money in his house?

Mint?

Did you say Mint?

Yeah, Mint.

I'm a genius.

I bought a house of money!

I'm rich!

Tony, all you got
is a vacant lot.

Yeah, but I have twodetectives working on the case.

Good morning, can I help you?

Hi, I'm looking for a house.

Congratulations, will
this be your first home?

It's not for me.

That's not a problem.

I've handled quite a few ofthese transactions before,

and I'm very discreet.

Yeah, right.

You know what the
buyer has in mind?

Yeah, two bedrooms,
two bathrooms,

wood frame, white, with afront porch and green awnings.

Well, it's always easier whenthe client knows what he wants.

Yeah.

It was last seen going Easton 45th Street, Tuesday,

around midnight.

Have you seen it around?

[hammering]

Ain't here, folks.

Keep looking, it's
gotta be somewhere.

He's right.

We turned the whole placeapart we haven't found a dime.

Look, I know daddy.

He'd hide it somewhere wherehe thought we'd never look,

so we have to look everywhere.

I'm exhausted.

I got to get some sleep.

Why don't you go home?

Freddie and I can keep working.

Well, I'm-- I'm
not that tired.

You look tired.

You don't look
so hot yourself!

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Come on, come on.

We're family.

If we can't trust each other,who are we going to trust, huh?

All right, we'll
all leave together.

[car door closing]

Grandma Pucelli!

What a surprise.

I come to see the housethat you buy with my money.

Well, yeah.

OK.

How would you like a
tour of the garden?

You must understand, acompletely accurate analysis

cannot be made off a photocopy.

But you're pretty sure.

Mm-hmm.

So the person who signedthe papers on the house sale

is the same person
hired the mover.

Precisely.

And that person was
not Walter Larson.

His name was forged
on these documents.

Can you tell if
the signature is

someone from the same family?

No, but I can tell you thatit's a 95% chance that this

is the handwriting of a woman.

Doing a little
home improvement?

I swear, I had
nothing to do with it!

It was Freddie and Mac, theymade me sign those papers.

Save it.

All right?

All I want is house back.

You believe me, don't you?

Hey, we either go to
the house or the police.

It's your choice.

Look, I know all
about your father,

I know all about the Mint.

You do?

Yeah, I do.

Look, we're talking
$20 million, here.

There's enough for everybody.

$20 million?

Yeah!

Daddy called it his Trusty 20.

He always said it was more moneythan we could ever dream of.

But did we ever get
to see a penny of it?

No.

He thought we were
all too greedy.

Can you believe that?

Look, we could cut it five ways.

Four if you dump
your friend, Tony.

Look, we have two blocks.

You tell me where the houseis or we go to the cops.

Those double-crossing liars!

Want to tell me
where the house is now?

I have no idea.

They stole it again!

GINNY MAE: I told you, I
don't know where it is.

FATZ TURNER: We're standingin the front yard, which

might as well be the
backyard, because you

stole my client's house.

And now you don't
know where it is?

GINNY MAE: My brothers stoleit from out from under me.

FATZ TURNER: Yeah, OK.
Tell me anything.

A man's house issupposed to be his castle.

Cheer up, man.

We found your porch didn't we?

I found the porch.

You work and you
slave to scrape

up enough for a downpayment, then all of a sudden

it just disappears.

You got the money from
your grandmother, Tony.

All right, she worked.

She slaved.

32 years of living
with my father.

That was work.And what do I get for it?

Nothing, nada, zippo!

If you didn't
expect so much, you

might have gotten something.

Excuse me, but we'rewasting time here, folks.

Booker, take it to the police.

I've got work to do.

Tony, Tony.

The porch, I like.

Now you show me the rest.

[music playing]

[SINGING] My money right.

I got to get my money right.

My money right.

I got to get my
money, money right.

My money right.

I got to get my money right.

My money right.

I got to get my money right.

My money right.

I got to get my
money, money right.

What's the job?

See this house?

KIDS: Yeah.

First kid to find
it gets 100 bucks.

KIDS: Whoa, awesome!

Hey, hey.

What's the catch?

[laughs] It moves around.

We were working
on the supposition

that the amount that
you said was hidden

was in $50 denominations.

Wouldn't it be easier just tofigure it out on your computer?

Well, yes, but the
physical presentation

is so much more effective.

[laughs]

So if it takes us much
room for 50s, right?

How about 20s?

It would fill the room.

The money ain't in the house.

Maybe Ginny Mae
already found it.

If she'd found it, shewould've already told us.

Believe me.

How do you know?

Because she's our sister.

She wouldn't try to scam us.

I guess not.

Blood's thicker than water.

You're right.

Besides, we stole it fromher before she had the chance.

True.

So what are you going to do now?

Start selling firewood?

There aren't any
pieces big enough.

We screwed up.

We tore the place apart,
there was no money,

and now it's worthless.

That's not exactly true.

There's still one personwho still wants this house.

Who?

[doorbell]

What is in here?

I don't know.

Let me check that out.

It's cool.

Oh my God.

What is it?

It's the knocker
off my front door.

Savages.

They left a note.

If you want to see
your house again,

leave $50,000 on
your lot tonight.

What kind of peoplewould do a thing like this?

House-nappers.

You got a plan?

Of course I do.

I keep a plan on stash.

[kids cheering]

The best place for WalterLarson to stash the money

is a public storage locker.

That is a very
good place to start.

Most companies
don't have lockers

large enough to
hold that much cash,

so I narrowed down the list.

Very smart.

The problem is, there's
still eight places.

Five of which are
owned by Toshima.

Huh.

[kids cheering]

Who are you?

I-- I'm Tony.

I live here.

Not anymore, you don't.

It's the first of the month.

We're moving in.

Well, see, I-- uh--

I've changed my mind.

I think I'm going to stay.

You're too late.

We've been on the waitinglist for six months.

So when can you
get your stuff out?

I'm homeless.

[kids cheering]

You really think there mightbe millions of dollars in here?

Could be.

Do you think the
federal government

has, like, an accurate countof how much money is missing?

I don't know.
Why?

No reason.
I just thought--

Stay close.

Walter Larson?

I thought you
said he was dead.

I am now.

You never stole the moneyfrom the Mint, did you?

You stole the plates.

My Trusty 20.

If you're interested, I canyou a little demonstration.

Well, let's get busy!

Later.

Why did you fake your death?

Well, I stole the
plates 15 years ago.

The feds finally figured it out.

So I did what any hardworkingcareer man would do.

Faked your death and sic thegovernment on your children.

Exactly.

I just needed some
time to crank up

the old press for one last run.

Have you any idea how
much work it takes

to make a million dollars?

I can imagine.

Can I ask a question?

Why, certainly.

What the hell does any ofthis have to do with my house?

Well, I knew they'dturn the house upside down

looking for the
money, and I figured

that if they drew so muchattention to themselves,

I'd have a better
chance of getting away.

The problem is, they soldyour house to my friend, here.

Kids.

What are you going to do?

Kill him!

Kill him!

They want $50,000 to
get my own house back!

What?

Fatz is on his way rightnow to the meeting place.

With $50,000?

Where'd you get
that kind of money?

Borrowed it on the street.

Tony.

Well, I figured the
insurance would cover

it once I got the house back.

Listen, we got
to get out of here.

Someone's got to
watch the money.

Oh, me, me, me.

That was lucky, me catchingyou as you were leaving.

I wasn't leaving.

I was just backing
the truck out.

Oh.

A plane ticket to Rio?

First class?

Yours is under there, too.

I was going to surprise you.

Really?

Where is it?

Sorry, baby brother.

One goes into 50 grand a hellof a lot easier than two.

Hey, Ginny Mae!

How'd you find us?

Just looked in the stupidestplace I could think of.

Aw, come on, you're
not mad are you?

No, now that I know
I'm getting $50,000.

[car tires squeaking]

Hey, that's my money!

Blood's thicker
than water, huh?

GINNY MAE: Oh, yeah, yourhead's going to be thicker

if you don't get off of me!

Get off of me!

FREDDIE: You don't
give up, do you, sis?

Hey, look.

Are you alive?

Of course I'm
alive, you imbecile.

What are you doing here?

You've been had.

No one's going to give youany money for the house.

Why not?

I told him what
you did with it.

What?

Hey, that's the
thanks we, huh, pop?

We even went to your
funeral and everything.

You must be out of your mind.

I had no choice.

Pop, why did you
come to see us, huh?

You just want to see us squirm.

No, no, no.

I came to make a deal.

[scoffs].

What kind of deal?

I need you to tell me
where you put the house.

[scoffs] .

Why should we?

Well, if you don't,
I'm going to go to jail.

They'll convict me.

They'll send me
away for 20 years.

Jail?

And at my age, I
might never come back.

Well, we'll be
sure to visit you.

Yeah.

Every Sunday.

Oh, yeah?

Well, you can visit
every day of the week,

because I'll see thatyou're all there with me.

You'd do that to
your own children?

In a minute.

Your car or ours?

Are you really still alive?

Oh, get in the truck.

Where is it?
Where did it go?

I could've sworn I
left it right here.

Freddie!

It was here we
left, wasn't it?

Uh-huh.

Dad, what kind of
sons did you raise?

[interposing voices]

Hey, mister!

Hey, mister!

What?

I got a message from Fatz.

He says to meet him
at Tony's house.

[interposing voices]

Tony, my man.

I have solved the case.

Daddy, don't
listen to Freddie.

I'm telling you,
don't listen to him.

This is my house?

'Fraid so, man.

Guess they got a little
carried away, huh?

Yeah.

Well, case closed.

Uh, what do want me to do withthe rest of this money, man?

You want me to bring it
back to the loan shark,

or you got some plans for it?

Wait, wait.

I think I know a way I candouble this money in 24 hours.

You don't lose it in 12.

Here, why don't
you take this back.

You trust me with that?

- Yeah, I do.
- Word?

Yeah.

What the hell, man,
I appreciate that.

You ever need anything, now, yougive a brother like me a call.

I'll look out for you.
- All right.

I'm on the book under Fatz.

That's Fatz with a Z.

Fatz with a Z.

Listen, daddy, daddy.

The reason I sold the
house out from under you

is because I needed the money.

Yeah, maybe if you
would've shared it

with us all these
years, you know,

we might have all turned
into much better people.

Yeah.

Yeah, so, why don't you justtell us where the money is now,

then we can become
one big, happy family?

Yeah, well, why don't Itell you all in the truck?

Hey, Walter.

I'll take these back
where they belong.

What are those?

I'll explain on the
way to the airport.

Let's hurry before
he changes his mind.

You're just going
to let them get away?

A deal's a deal.

Look what they
did to my house!

You got it back.

You'll collect
from the insurance.

[car engine revving]

Besides, they'll learntheir lesson sooner or later.

So, anything in the fridge?

[latin music]

How about a toast?

Oh, yes.

This.

To Rio, land of
no extradition.

To daddy.

I've got to hand
it to you, pop.

One million bucks,
free and clear, huh?

And we've got each other.

Pop, your plan was brilliant.

Aw, Freddie, you justgot to know who to trust.

Now, voila!

Well, we still
have each other.

What a stupid thing to say.

[all yelling]

I bet you it feels good tohave your place back, huh?

Yeah.

They raised my rent.

Course, I won't
be there for long.

What do you mean?

Well, this whole thingwith Walter gave me an idea.

Are you familiar
with the foreclosure

sales, probate auctions?

Yeah, it's places where noone knows who the owner is,

places that aren't
up to code, places

with bodies in the basement.

Hey, there areopportunities everywhere.

Tony, you got to stop tryingto get something for nothing.

- Why?
- Why?

Why?

Because I'm not always goingto be there to bail you out,

that's why.

Hey, you're
getting good at that.

It's what I live for, Tony.It's what I live for.

and I'm ready tonight.
