[MUSIC PLAYING]

3
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,600
This place is lovely.

4
00:01:35,601 --> 00:01:36,480
How did you find it?

5
00:01:36,481 --> 00:01:38,720
Yeah, well, across the
river here in New Jersey.

6
00:01:38,721 --> 00:01:40,040
This is where I hide out.

7
00:01:40,041 --> 00:01:41,040
Nobody knows me.

8
00:01:41,041 --> 00:01:46,000
Oh, with your talent and good
looks, you'd be known anywhere.

9
00:01:46,001 --> 00:01:46,960
But not here.

10
00:01:46,961 --> 00:01:49,000
Maybe it's the way I comb my hair.

11
00:01:49,001 --> 00:01:50,640
Make sure none of your
waiters do another clip

12
00:01:50,641 --> 00:01:52,840
job on the checks, because
I'm going to be checking them.

13
00:01:52,841 --> 00:01:53,840
Personally.

14
00:01:53,841 --> 00:01:54,840
OK.

15
00:01:54,841 --> 00:01:55,840
OK?

16
00:01:55,841 --> 00:01:57,840


17
00:01:57,841 --> 00:01:58,840
Come on, you ready?

18
00:01:58,841 --> 00:02:00,340
Yeah.

19
00:02:00,341 --> 00:02:01,840
I'm about to trade you in.

20
00:02:01,841 --> 00:02:04,206
A little sports model over there.

21
00:02:06,099 --> 00:02:07,098
Hello, beautiful.

22
00:02:07,123 --> 00:02:09,277
Hey, what are you doing
sitting over here all alone?

23
00:02:11,275 --> 00:02:13,840
About to come over and join
me and my friend at the bar?

24
00:02:13,841 --> 00:02:15,475
No, thank you.

25
00:02:22,905 --> 00:02:24,471
You have more fun with us?

26
00:02:28,399 --> 00:02:30,352
A girl like you shouldn't be wasted.

27
00:02:30,841 --> 00:02:31,982
What's the matter?

28
00:02:32,554 --> 00:02:34,360
Probably none of my business.

29
00:02:34,527 --> 00:02:36,397
Would you like to order dinner now?

30
00:02:36,747 --> 00:02:37,936
Mm-hmm.

31
00:02:38,841 --> 00:02:41,840
Hey, uh, hey, fellas, this is my table.

32
00:02:41,841 --> 00:02:42,840
Would you mind?

33
00:02:42,841 --> 00:02:44,570
Mind?
Mind what, man?

34
00:02:44,595 --> 00:02:46,303
She asked me to join her.

35
00:02:46,628 --> 00:02:47,627
Now I can see why.

36
00:02:47,841 --> 00:02:49,840
Please, mister, don't make any trouble.

37
00:02:49,841 --> 00:02:51,432
Just leave us alone.

38
00:02:51,841 --> 00:02:54,502
Hey, fella, why don't you
leave these people alone, huh?

39
00:02:54,527 --> 00:02:56,382
They're not bothering anybody.

40
00:02:56,614 --> 00:02:58,613
In fact, why don't you
leave all of us alone?

41
00:02:58,841 --> 00:03:02,924
Why don't you go back to your hot
chocolate and mind your business, baldy?

42
00:03:03,529 --> 00:03:04,420
Oh.

43
00:03:19,544 --> 00:03:22,096
The ladies' room's over here.

44
00:03:22,121 --> 00:03:22,840
Okay.

45
00:03:32,321 --> 00:03:33,840
Get out of here!

46
00:03:33,841 --> 00:03:35,840
I never was a good man.

47
00:03:35,841 --> 00:03:36,840
Now!

48
00:03:36,841 --> 00:03:37,840
I'm not in the mood for this.

49
00:03:37,841 --> 00:03:38,840
Get out of here.

50
00:03:42,857 --> 00:03:43,840
All right, let's go.

51
00:03:45,316 --> 00:03:47,494
All right, come on, Mike,
let's get out of here now.

52
00:03:47,519 --> 00:03:48,518
No, no, no, no, no, no.

53
00:03:48,841 --> 00:03:50,840
Nobody pushes me out of
my own joint in my own car.

54
00:03:51,067 --> 00:03:52,066
I'm going to fix him.

55
00:04:01,946 --> 00:04:04,840
Yeah, um, I want Captain Keene.

56
00:04:04,841 --> 00:04:05,816
Now.

57
00:04:09,041 --> 00:04:10,531
Yeah, this is Viggers.

58
00:04:13,935 --> 00:04:15,840
You know how these things happen, sir.

59
00:04:15,841 --> 00:04:18,449
People have a few drinks
too many and they act up.

60
00:04:18,474 --> 00:04:21,592
You know something? For a guy who just
happened to have a few drinks too many,

61
00:04:21,617 --> 00:04:23,641
he seemed to know his
way around here fairly well.

62
00:04:24,088 --> 00:04:25,640
I wouldn't know about that.

63
00:04:25,641 --> 00:04:27,939
It's the first time I
ever saw the man here.

64
00:04:27,964 --> 00:04:29,640
You know something? I believe you.

65
00:04:29,641 --> 00:04:31,197
Now would you do me a favor?

66
00:04:31,222 --> 00:04:32,221
Give me the check.

67
00:04:32,514 --> 00:04:34,221
It's okay, sir. Please.

68
00:04:34,641 --> 00:04:35,640
Be my guest.

69
00:04:35,641 --> 00:04:37,193
I'll tell you what.

70
00:04:37,430 --> 00:04:39,640
We'll let the kids be your guests, okay?

71
00:04:39,641 --> 00:04:42,280
And I said I'd take care of my check, okay?

72
00:04:42,346 --> 00:04:45,340
That's exactly what... Freeze
right where you are, mister.

73
00:04:45,341 --> 00:04:46,761
I want to see your hands.

74
00:04:46,787 --> 00:04:47,340


75
00:04:48,653 --> 00:04:50,534
I'm a New York City police lieutenant.

76
00:04:50,559 --> 00:04:51,558
My name is Kojak.

77
00:04:51,583 --> 00:04:54,501
I have a shield and an ID
in my left hand front pocket.

78
00:04:54,526 --> 00:04:55,525
Check him out.

79
00:05:05,531 --> 00:05:08,117
I want that bald-headed creep locked up

80
00:05:08,485 --> 00:05:12,019
or you end up a night watchman on one
of the piers. You understand me, Keene?

81
00:05:12,091 --> 00:05:13,119
What, are you crazy?

82
00:05:13,144 --> 00:05:15,409
You want me to lock him
up for disorderly conduct?

83
00:05:15,434 --> 00:05:17,220
I'm a New York City
cop, and this is a $2 beef.

84
00:05:17,541 --> 00:05:19,431
My family tells you what to do.

85
00:05:19,456 --> 00:05:21,455
You don't tell me nothing.

86
00:05:22,867 --> 00:05:25,767
Let's call your father and see
what he thinks about all this.

87
00:05:27,731 --> 00:05:28,786
Sorry, baby.

88
00:05:28,811 --> 00:05:30,540
Just hang loose for a little
while longer, lieutenant.

89
00:05:30,541 --> 00:05:31,540
I'm sure this will all be ironed out.

90
00:05:31,541 --> 00:05:33,540
Hey, I don't want anything ironed out.

91
00:05:33,541 --> 00:05:34,975
There were two hoods involved.

92
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,052
One pulled a gun, and the
other was part of an assault.

93
00:05:38,541 --> 00:05:41,540
I don't know what fancy numbers
you call these crimes in Jersey, baby,

94
00:05:41,590 --> 00:05:44,006
but these things are crimes
in the rest of the country.

95
00:05:44,152 --> 00:05:45,745
Well, so far we have
no witnesses to the gun

96
00:05:45,757 --> 00:05:48,041
being pulled or even
possession by anyone.

97
00:05:48,529 --> 00:05:50,979
And I wouldn't press that
assault charge too far either.

98
00:06:01,376 --> 00:06:04,065
Give the guy a few hundred
bucks and chase him.

99
00:06:04,815 --> 00:06:07,210
And send the kid to me, right away.

100
00:06:07,323 --> 00:06:08,540
It's not that easy.

101
00:06:08,790 --> 00:06:10,540
The guy's a New York City cop.

102
00:06:10,721 --> 00:06:12,165
I see your problem.

103
00:06:12,590 --> 00:06:15,288
I'll send someone down to
your office with a thousand.

104
00:06:15,313 --> 00:06:18,232
I'll appreciate if you handle it.
You know how.

105
00:06:18,257 --> 00:06:21,065
Sure, Mike. I've done it before.

106
00:06:21,090 --> 00:06:22,490
Thanks for the call, Joe.

107
00:06:23,747 --> 00:06:25,240
Look, Keene.

108
00:06:25,241 --> 00:06:27,240
Police chief or not, you make a decision.

109
00:06:27,241 --> 00:06:29,812
Because I'll be leaving
here in the next ten minutes.

110
00:06:31,127 --> 00:06:35,240
Lieutenant, I don't know how you
handle these situations in New York, but...

111
00:06:35,297 --> 00:06:37,390
it takes a little longer here.

112
00:06:37,415 --> 00:06:39,644
You'll just have to
bear with me and let me

113
00:06:39,656 --> 00:06:42,240
go along in my own
small town, Hillbilly Pace.

114
00:06:42,241 --> 00:06:44,517
Mm-hmm. Don't con me, okay?

115
00:06:44,542 --> 00:06:46,691
You're neither a hillbilly or are you slow.

116
00:06:49,362 --> 00:06:50,566
Thank you.

117
00:06:53,371 --> 00:06:54,985
You all right?

118
00:06:56,105 --> 00:06:57,240
Lieutenant.

119
00:07:00,185 --> 00:07:04,740
This may be a small town, but we do try
to handle things in a sophisticated manner.

120
00:07:04,741 --> 00:07:09,445
And we never like to see
anyone leave our town... unhappy.

121
00:07:09,470 --> 00:07:10,470
Oh.

122
00:07:11,506 --> 00:07:13,340
If you try to give me that envelope...

123
00:07:13,643 --> 00:07:15,983
I'm gonna take it and shove
it right down your throat.

124
00:07:16,008 --> 00:07:18,460
And then I'm gonna make it my
business to ride you right into jail.

125
00:07:18,913 --> 00:07:20,565
Now you listen, chief.

126
00:07:21,077 --> 00:07:23,340
I'll be back across the bridge again, okay?

127
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,340
I wanna see how your big
investigation into this is being handled.

128
00:07:27,497 --> 00:07:29,316
You don't run this office. I do.

129
00:07:30,401 --> 00:07:32,114
You'll look into nothing.

130
00:07:32,341 --> 00:07:33,938
Then there's judges who can.

131
00:07:34,097 --> 00:07:35,340
Or maybe even the feds.

132
00:07:35,341 --> 00:07:40,340
[Suspenseful music]

133
00:07:40,341 --> 00:07:42,846
They'll be checking on what
you're doing here, too, you know.

134
00:07:42,907 --> 00:07:44,906
Maybe you had a little bit
too much to drink tonight.

135
00:07:45,266 --> 00:07:48,000
Somebody might tell that
to your judges and feds.

136
00:07:48,025 --> 00:07:49,052
Keene.

137
00:07:49,714 --> 00:07:50,714
I'm wise to you.

138
00:08:03,056 --> 00:08:04,828
What the hell's so
important that you have to

139
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,340
get me out of bed in
the middle of the night?

140
00:08:06,341 --> 00:08:08,340
I got into a beef in Jersey tonight.

141
00:08:08,341 --> 00:08:11,594
I don't want you to be embarrassed,
you know, just in case it hits the fan.

142
00:08:11,619 --> 00:08:14,340
What kind of beef?
Did you steal the Lincoln Tunnel?

143
00:08:15,051 --> 00:08:17,532
No, Frank, I wish it
were that simple, but...

144
00:08:17,557 --> 00:08:21,445
I dumped some guy that looks like he
owns the state, or at least the local PD.

145
00:08:21,692 --> 00:08:23,052
What town?

146
00:08:23,365 --> 00:08:25,009
Uh, Ellisburg.

147
00:08:25,690 --> 00:08:27,340
Ellisburg.

148
00:08:29,247 --> 00:08:30,316
Fiancee?

149
00:08:30,630 --> 00:08:32,194
Neighborhood girl.

150
00:08:32,219 --> 00:08:33,862
Oh, really? Well, why
don't you take your hand

151
00:08:33,874 --> 00:08:35,340
off her knee and go
back there and book her.

152
00:08:36,672 --> 00:08:37,872
Excuse me, darling.

153
00:08:40,479 --> 00:08:41,780
Ellisburg.

154
00:08:42,540 --> 00:08:44,340
Hey, that's Viggers town.

155
00:08:45,006 --> 00:08:45,983
Viggers?

156
00:08:46,570 --> 00:08:50,030
No, this couldn't be Viggers.
I've kept an eye on that guy for 20 years.

157
00:08:50,055 --> 00:08:52,165
His action is right here in
New York, not across the river.

158
00:08:52,190 --> 00:08:54,497
Well, he's branched
out to both sides of the Hudson

159
00:08:54,522 --> 00:08:56,340
for about the last two years now.

160
00:08:56,558 --> 00:08:59,340
Not that he's given up on New
York, but he must have figured...

161
00:08:59,462 --> 00:09:02,788
Well, since he lives in Ellisburg,
he might as well own the town, too.

162
00:09:04,132 --> 00:09:07,618
Mac, I've locked up
Viggers, I've arrested him,

163
00:09:07,630 --> 00:09:09,932
given him nothing but
aggravation over the years.

164
00:09:09,941 --> 00:09:13,940
I know his moves, his style. He wouldn't
have a hood like this hooked up with him.

165
00:09:13,941 --> 00:09:16,503
Anyhow, it's not that incident
that bugs me, as much

166
00:09:16,515 --> 00:09:18,807
as they're using the
police chief as their agent.

167
00:09:18,832 --> 00:09:22,940
Leo, so there's a cop in another
state who may not be so kosher?

168
00:09:22,941 --> 00:09:24,016
I mean, what's the big deal?

169
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,820
You might find a few in
Hong Kong or Afghanistan.

170
00:09:26,832 --> 00:09:28,617
You want to straighten
them out, too?

171
00:09:28,642 --> 00:09:31,940
A cop is supposed to be a cop, and
this guy Keene has no right to be one.

172
00:09:32,045 --> 00:09:34,481
Leo, if a beef comes in
from them, I'll go to the

173
00:09:34,493 --> 00:09:36,940
wall with you, but I
don't think we'll have to.

174
00:09:36,941 --> 00:09:39,305
You know, I've been
around the block a couple of

175
00:09:39,317 --> 00:09:41,347
times myself. I've got a
few friends that I can call.

176
00:09:41,372 --> 00:09:44,827
You let it lay. Let Ellisburg
take care of Ellisburg, and

177
00:09:44,839 --> 00:09:47,492
we'll take care of our little
town. We have our own problems.

178
00:09:47,688 --> 00:09:48,926
I guess you're right.

179
00:09:48,941 --> 00:09:50,510
See you back here in a few hours.

180
00:09:50,535 --> 00:09:52,160
We'll do what we have to do.

181
00:09:54,074 --> 00:09:55,302
Come on, you want a lift?

182
00:09:55,327 --> 00:09:55,940
No.

183
00:10:00,552 --> 00:10:03,429
This guy comes out of
left field and suckers me.

184
00:10:03,441 --> 00:10:06,679
I was just talking to this
girl. I used to know her.

185
00:10:07,229 --> 00:10:08,228
Go!

186
00:10:19,244 --> 00:10:20,990
Don't do it.

187
00:10:22,741 --> 00:10:24,601
Leave me alone.

188
00:10:25,441 --> 00:10:26,441


189
00:10:33,672 --> 00:10:36,028
You're leaving town. A vacation in London.

190
00:10:38,573 --> 00:10:39,800
I can't leave now.

191
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:43,340
What about my spots?

192
00:10:43,341 --> 00:10:45,340
I gave you the spots and you go to London.

193
00:10:45,341 --> 00:10:49,340
You're chasing me out because
I'm a lousy cop? I can Bury him.

194
00:10:49,341 --> 00:10:52,648
This is Jersey, another state.
There's nothing here. Nothing!

195
00:10:53,558 --> 00:10:55,698
Get home and pack.

196
00:10:56,213 --> 00:10:57,147
Now.

197
00:11:05,293 --> 00:11:07,340
Did Kojak say anything before he left?

198
00:11:07,341 --> 00:11:10,647
Yeah, he said he'd be back. With the check.

199
00:11:11,187 --> 00:11:13,206
Then that's just what he'll do.

200
00:11:18,466 --> 00:11:19,980
No way, man. No way.

201
00:11:20,341 --> 00:11:24,340
Ain't nobody treated like no street corner
punk. Not by my father, not by nobody.

202
00:11:24,341 --> 00:11:28,340
I got my own operation. It's mine.
I run it. What do I got, 20, 22 people now?

203
00:11:28,341 --> 00:11:30,340
Yeah, you got 22 counting
the labor union set up.

204
00:11:30,341 --> 00:11:32,069
Then why am I running out of town?

205
00:11:36,576 --> 00:11:41,940
Hey, I could, uh... I could break away.
Take care of my own problems.

206
00:11:43,427 --> 00:11:45,677
If you're thinking of breaking
away from your father, you

207
00:11:45,689 --> 00:11:48,295
better make sure that your own
people are gonna support you.

208
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,474
Because believe me, you're
gonna need them, Michael.

209
00:11:52,187 --> 00:11:53,740
I can count on you, can't I?

210
00:11:54,691 --> 00:11:55,740
As what?

211
00:11:56,128 --> 00:11:57,468
My underboss.

212
00:11:57,741 --> 00:11:59,527
Yeah, you can count on me.

213
00:12:02,457 --> 00:12:06,740
I need more from you.
Here's 25 grand. Bonus.

214
00:12:07,241 --> 00:12:08,240
For what?

215
00:12:08,241 --> 00:12:09,240
A hit.

216
00:12:11,285 --> 00:12:12,627
I want Kojak.

217
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:15,240
Dead.

218
00:12:15,241 --> 00:12:18,240
And they don't get one
without the other, right?

219
00:12:18,568 --> 00:12:19,702
That's right.

220
00:12:20,555 --> 00:12:21,555
Thats right.

221
00:12:29,154 --> 00:12:32,686
So we're breaking away and
we're going out on our own.

222
00:12:33,346 --> 00:12:34,640
Just like that?

223
00:12:34,690 --> 00:12:37,640
All right, all right.
It's gonna be problems.

224
00:12:37,641 --> 00:12:43,229
Territories, splits, some noise from the
old timers, but nothing we can't handle.

225
00:12:43,254 --> 00:12:45,955
Now what about your father?
What does he think about this?

226
00:12:46,516 --> 00:12:47,996
This is my group.

227
00:12:48,569 --> 00:12:50,402
I can move him any way I want.

228
00:12:51,183 --> 00:12:52,997
They'll never let you get away with it.

229
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,740
Look, you know how these things work.

230
00:12:56,140 --> 00:12:59,436
You wanna get rid of a group like us,
you gotta cut off the head. Arm the head.

231
00:13:00,975 --> 00:13:02,867
Does a father kill his only son?

232
00:13:03,190 --> 00:13:06,101
We can understand you think
that your father was unreasonable.

233
00:13:06,126 --> 00:13:08,740
Not backing you up on that thing
that happened the other night.

234
00:13:09,340 --> 00:13:12,633
But since this thing is an
embarrassment to you, want this loss

235
00:13:12,645 --> 00:13:15,740
of face affect us if we should
make any moves at this time?

236
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,816
Now what the hell is that
supposed to mean, huh?

237
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,271
Don't get excited, Mike.

238
00:13:19,778 --> 00:13:22,700
We're all friends here. It's just
that we're making a kind of a power

239
00:13:22,712 --> 00:13:26,740
play and you didn't come out of
that thing the other night as a champ.

240
00:13:27,165 --> 00:13:29,740
Now there's other mobs
gonna be sizing us up.

241
00:13:30,590 --> 00:13:31,956
Sizing you up.

242
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,142
Kojak is a cop's name.

243
00:13:37,140 --> 00:13:38,140
He's going.

244
00:13:41,378 --> 00:13:42,503
As if tonight...

245
00:13:44,071 --> 00:13:46,448
...there's a 25 grand contract out on him.

246
00:13:58,657 --> 00:13:59,740
Yeah, okay.

247
00:14:01,740 --> 00:14:02,740
That was Tocco.

248
00:14:03,513 --> 00:14:05,593
Mike Junior's pulling the breakaway.

249
00:14:08,443 --> 00:14:11,740
And as an added starter,
he's got a hit on Kojak.

250
00:14:13,763 --> 00:14:16,457
Put the word out. Castle that hit.

251
00:14:16,741 --> 00:14:17,740
Well, who do I tell?

252
00:14:18,162 --> 00:14:20,562
Right now we don't know who belongs to who.

253
00:14:27,219 --> 00:14:28,219
Stavros.

254
00:14:28,244 --> 00:14:31,740
This stuff is 3 years old. Doesn't C.I.B.
have anything newer?

255
00:14:32,382 --> 00:14:36,740
Ever since Viggers moved to Jersey, the
feds have made him their private property.

256
00:14:36,741 --> 00:14:37,741
Are you sure?

257
00:14:37,890 --> 00:14:39,862
Well, that's what the B.C.I. says.

258
00:14:39,887 --> 00:14:41,149
Lieutenant.

259
00:14:41,262 --> 00:14:42,740
Make sure.

260
00:14:42,741 --> 00:14:43,740
Yes, sir.

261
00:14:44,012 --> 00:14:46,740
This is Lieutenant Kojak, Manhattan South.

262
00:14:48,100 --> 00:14:51,266
Yeah, Keene. What is it now?

263
00:14:51,821 --> 00:14:53,740
It's another world over there.

264
00:14:54,094 --> 00:14:56,635
Apparently the same rules don't apply.

265
00:14:56,660 --> 00:14:58,061
Some of the rules do.

266
00:14:58,475 --> 00:15:00,701
Really? Like which ones?

267
00:15:00,726 --> 00:15:03,222
Like the ones about cops
taking care of other cops.

268
00:15:05,304 --> 00:15:06,206
Look.

269
00:15:06,671 --> 00:15:09,816
You're talking about that envelope
routine again. Don't try it here.

270
00:15:10,041 --> 00:15:11,522
I'm not talking about that.

271
00:15:11,547 --> 00:15:13,640
Maybe you ought to drop that
until they can get this straight.

272
00:15:14,095 --> 00:15:16,375
Maybe Viggers has put
a contract out on you.

273
00:15:16,414 --> 00:15:17,413
Viggers the kid?

274
00:15:19,009 --> 00:15:21,049
Tell me, why are you delivering a message?

275
00:15:21,041 --> 00:15:24,040
I mean, they own that much of you
that you deliver their threats for them?

276
00:15:24,041 --> 00:15:26,040
They don't know that I
came over here to talk to you.

277
00:15:26,041 --> 00:15:29,040
Look, Kojak, I may not
be much of a bargain, but...

278
00:15:29,041 --> 00:15:31,715
I figure there are limits
to my obligations to them.

279
00:15:31,740 --> 00:15:32,739
This is my limit.

280
00:15:32,850 --> 00:15:35,040
I don't stand by and
watch a cop get killed.

281
00:15:35,041 --> 00:15:37,613
You know, if there's that
much of the blue uniform in you,

282
00:15:37,638 --> 00:15:39,637
why the rest of your
involvement with Viggers?

283
00:15:40,618 --> 00:15:42,465
I used to be a state trooper.

284
00:15:42,727 --> 00:15:44,473
Twelve years I was a good one.

285
00:15:44,847 --> 00:15:46,846
Tough, honest, all that junk.

286
00:15:48,076 --> 00:15:50,040
I ran into problems with my family.

287
00:15:50,041 --> 00:15:53,719
A wife that started to drink and then that
sanatoriums and the rest of that route.

288
00:15:54,447 --> 00:15:56,850
Viggers, the old man, he helped
me out with some of the problems.

289
00:15:57,041 --> 00:16:01,040
A guy like that, got more contacts
than a legit guy can ever have.

290
00:16:01,290 --> 00:16:05,040
So, when he bought the town of
Ellisburg, he put me in as police chief.

291
00:16:05,041 --> 00:16:07,668
With a paycheck that would
embarrass any state payroll.

292
00:16:07,693 --> 00:16:11,692
If it's such a sweet touch, why
do you come to me with a warning?

293
00:16:11,784 --> 00:16:13,624
I mean, you could be
blowing a paycheck, right?

294
00:16:13,649 --> 00:16:15,355
Because once I was a hell of a cop.

295
00:16:16,041 --> 00:16:18,040
Even now, I still do my job.

296
00:16:18,298 --> 00:16:20,285
Maybe with some exceptions.

297
00:16:20,581 --> 00:16:22,580
But on this, I don't sit back.

298
00:16:23,041 --> 00:16:25,040
Does old man Viggers know
about the contract on me?

299
00:16:25,041 --> 00:16:26,387
I don't know for sure.

300
00:16:26,443 --> 00:16:28,040
But there isn't much he doesn't know.

301
00:16:28,540 --> 00:16:29,540
Come on.

302
00:16:29,663 --> 00:16:54,040
[Music]

303
00:16:54,223 --> 00:16:55,222
Thank you.

304
00:16:55,247 --> 00:17:00,040
[Music]

305
00:17:00,541 --> 00:17:01,540
Can I help you?

306
00:17:01,541 --> 00:17:03,080
Yes, I'd like to see Mr. Viggers.

307
00:17:03,105 --> 00:17:04,013
What's your name?

308
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,199
My name is Kojak.

309
00:17:10,955 --> 00:17:14,008
Yeah, there's a Mr. Kojak
down here to see Mr. Viggers.

310
00:17:14,890 --> 00:17:16,856
Yeah, okay.

311
00:17:17,478 --> 00:17:20,018
You can take the last elevator at the end.

312
00:17:20,043 --> 00:17:21,164
The penthouse.

313
00:17:24,282 --> 00:17:27,040
You know you're the first doorman
I ever met with a heart of steel.

314
00:17:34,265 --> 00:17:35,172
Theo!

315
00:17:35,197 --> 00:17:37,906
Hello, Sammy.
Looks like Jersey agrees with you.

316
00:17:37,931 --> 00:17:41,393
Well, when you're old, you want as
many things as you can to agree with you.

317
00:17:41,827 --> 00:17:44,777
I gotta ask you, Theo, is
this official or just a talk?

318
00:17:44,802 --> 00:17:47,163
If this was official, Sammy,
wouldn't you be the first

319
00:17:47,188 --> 00:17:50,040
one in handcuffs and wasn't
that always the way it was?

320
00:17:50,041 --> 00:17:51,040
Buzz us up.

321
00:17:51,041 --> 00:17:51,790
Yeah.

322
00:17:52,041 --> 00:17:53,041


323
00:18:02,029 --> 00:18:03,511
Theo, long time.

324
00:18:03,536 --> 00:18:06,741
Ah, you look good.
Like a man is supposed to look.

325
00:18:06,766 --> 00:18:08,040
Like you too.

326
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,406
First of all, I want to apologize
for the conduct of my son

327
00:18:12,431 --> 00:18:16,146
and then for my own conduct
in offering you restitution.

328
00:18:17,105 --> 00:18:20,559
I did not know it was you
when I took that liberty.

329
00:18:20,695 --> 00:18:23,945
Well, I thought I was correct
in assuming that he was

330
00:18:23,957 --> 00:18:27,040
over 21 and responsible for
his own actions and conduct.

331
00:18:27,041 --> 00:18:29,016
I appreciate that thought.

332
00:18:29,456 --> 00:18:33,178
But what father is not
responsible for his son's actions?

333
00:18:33,203 --> 00:18:37,040
Then you're saying that you're responsible
for a contract being put out on me?

334
00:18:38,793 --> 00:18:43,040
Theo, I'm asking you for a favor
that I know you do not owe me.

335
00:18:43,065 --> 00:18:45,691
Nor, in fact, do I owe you anything.

336
00:18:45,716 --> 00:18:50,842
But we know each other a long time and we
understand a great deal about each other.

337
00:18:50,867 --> 00:18:55,157
I promise you, if you let me
take control of the situation

338
00:18:55,182 --> 00:18:59,918
and you just forget it, I'll take
control of my son's actions.

339
00:18:59,943 --> 00:19:03,395
And if this incident cannot
come to a happy ending for

340
00:19:03,704 --> 00:19:07,040
me, at least it will come
to a peaceful one for you.

341
00:19:08,015 --> 00:19:10,040
You could take some vacation.

342
00:19:10,891 --> 00:19:14,040
I own some excellent hotels.

343
00:19:14,644 --> 00:19:18,040
Mike, naughty, naughty.

344
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,800
All right, all right, Theo. I'm sorry.

345
00:19:22,195 --> 00:19:26,040
I do that from instinct,
not from good sense.

346
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:28,367
I'll tell you something, Mike.

347
00:19:28,854 --> 00:19:31,395
I came here to tell you that
I'm coming after your son.

348
00:19:33,229 --> 00:19:36,040
I don't like contracts on me.
What else can I tell you?

349
00:19:36,189 --> 00:19:38,029
Your son is on his own
and I have to stop him.

350
00:19:38,177 --> 00:19:40,040
How? Are you going to put a hit on him?

351
00:19:40,041 --> 00:19:42,081
I'll handle him like I've
handled every other punk.

352
00:19:42,607 --> 00:19:44,395
Go after him whatever way I think is right.

353
00:19:44,420 --> 00:19:46,672
You hunt him. Then what?

354
00:19:46,697 --> 00:19:48,040
I'm in, baby.

355
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,246
You're asking me to stand
by and watch a man I have

356
00:19:51,258 --> 00:19:54,040

son go after each other?

357
00:19:54,065 --> 00:19:57,313
I can't stand by anymore than
you can volunteer to be a victim.

358
00:19:58,453 --> 00:19:59,853

My son has the organization here, not you.

360
00:20:03,412 --> 00:20:07,040
I don't want to see a winner
or a loser in this contest.

361
00:20:07,859 --> 00:20:11,501
I guarantee that you will
never see my son

362
00:20:11,513 --> 00:20:15,040
in New York, regardless of any
problems here in New Jersey.

363

364

thing before it goes any further.

367

368

and your emotions right now.

369

it just the way it is?

370

Oh, the next trip,
Sammy, it's the handcuffs.

371
00:20:57,559 --> 00:21:01,040
No one hits a cop.
Not one of mine, not one of anyone's.

372
00:21:01,190 --> 00:21:03,040

373

he is to order the death of a cop?

375
00:21:07,815 --> 00:21:11,593
Well, it's another state, Mac.
Maybe we ought to just forget about it.

376
00:21:12,090 --> 00:21:14,666
That was before. This is now.

377
00:21:14,691 --> 00:21:17,649
It's an imperfect world
and I'm a lifetime member.

378
00:21:18,146 --> 00:21:21,583
We'll go to the feds.
Their borders end at oceans, not rivers.

379
00:21:21,608 --> 00:21:23,476
They won't be interested. They never are.

380
00:21:23,501 --> 00:21:25,367
We'll make them interested.

382
00:21:29,230 --> 00:21:32,040
Sure, we'll do whatever
we can in this case.

383
00:21:32,065 --> 00:21:35,915
We're not going to stand by and let
a police lieutenant become a target.

384
00:21:36,197 --> 00:21:37,196
What would you suggest?

385
00:21:37,221 --> 00:21:39,422
What have you got on baby
Viggers that we can pick him up on?

386
00:21:39,447 --> 00:21:41,481
You know we can't open our files to you.

387
00:21:41,506 --> 00:21:44,040
Now, if you want to turn this
over to us and let us handle it.

388
00:21:44,041 --> 00:21:47,040
You're telling me I shouldn't
take care of my own man?

389
00:21:47,226 --> 00:21:48,726
Why would I expect you to do it?

390
00:21:48,769 --> 00:21:50,719
Because we need you people.

391
00:21:51,150 --> 00:21:53,417
I'm not going to be the
cause of a breach in the

392
00:21:53,442 --> 00:21:56,662

we've got, the street cop.

393
00:21:57,337 --> 00:21:59,587
You have a plan, Mr. Cortazzo?

394
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,040
We've got a weak conspiracy
case against Viggers and his son.

395
00:22:04,065 --> 00:22:06,082
It's not a finished
product, but there's

396
00:22:06,159 --> 00:22:08,673
enough here to bring
a few of the people in.

397
00:22:09,063 --> 00:22:12,415
I'm not completely sure of the facts.
I'm going to check into them.

398
00:22:13,041 --> 00:22:14,041

399
00:22:14,339 --> 00:22:15,853
Somebody's out there
hunting for me and you're

400
00:22:15,865 --> 00:22:17,389
going to start checking
into something, right?

401
00:22:17,414 --> 00:22:21,295
Why don't you forget it? I'll take care
of my own problems out on the street.

402
00:22:26,328 --> 00:22:30,567
You know, for a guy that needs
help, he's pretty independent.

403
00:22:31,209 --> 00:22:33,040
I should think he'd be glad.

404
00:22:33,041 --> 00:22:35,271
He doesn't owe you feds a thing.

405
00:22:38,029 --> 00:22:39,779

You know something?

407
00:22:50,500 --> 00:22:53,600
Now that Junior's breaking
away from his father,

408
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,600
maybe this is the time
to set the old man up.

409
00:22:57,509 --> 00:22:59,659
I thought we were
waiting to get both of them.

410
00:23:00,129 --> 00:23:02,579
No, it's the old man I want to put away.

411
00:23:03,779 --> 00:23:06,033
And I think I've got the angle, finally.

412
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:25,040
Mr. Viggers, do you have
a statement at this time?

413
00:23:25,041 --> 00:23:27,040
Could I have a statement, please?

414
00:23:27,041 --> 00:23:32,040

Viggers, do you have a statement, please?

Viggers, could I have a statement, please?

You're my friend, you're my boss,
but going to the feds was your idea.

Hey, easy. How wide? Explain.

418
00:23:41,082 --> 00:23:44,040
We talked to them yesterday, and
today they lock up the wrong Viggers.

419
00:23:44,041 --> 00:23:46,040
The punk is out and the old man's in.

420
00:23:46,041 --> 00:23:49,721
Now, I'll do it my way if you don't mind.
Just me against him.

421
00:23:56,316 --> 00:23:58,810
All right. Now, we all know what happened.

422
00:23:58,943 --> 00:24:00,097
My father's in,

423
00:24:01,471 --> 00:24:02,670
and, eh...

424
00:24:03,230 --> 00:24:04,904
he's going 
to have to stay in for a while.

425
00:24:04,929 --> 00:24:06,486
Well, we're not sure about that.

426
00:24:07,070 --> 00:24:10,942
It's just a material witness rap
on a federal conspiracy charge.

period of time my father is in,

or not, I'm taking over. I'm the boss.

Well, we heard about it
the other night at the diner,

00:25:39,511 --> 00:25:42,510
and I mentioned it to the Lieutenant,
and he proceeded to tear my head off.

Well, you cover him
or I'll tear your heart out.

just send him in to see me.

Look, he ordered me to stick with you,
Lieutenant, so that's just what I'm gonna do.

514
00:30:01,311 --> 00:30:03,310
And I'm ordering you to
stop hanging on my back.

515
00:30:03,311 --> 00:30:05,321
Well, if you don't get
off my back, I'll just

516
00:30:05,333 --> 00:30:07,286
take my vacation and
sleep on your doorstep.

517
00:30:08,590 --> 00:30:12,646
Look, everybody's in on it. The whole squad
is in on it. All the guys are in on it.

518
00:30:12,671 --> 00:30:16,049
What do you want from me? Why don't you
go back to the squad and yell at 30 guys?

519
00:30:18,510 --> 00:30:21,510
What, do you think I'm gonna let Stavros
sleep in my apartment? You're crazy.

520
00:30:22,291 --> 00:30:23,510
[LAUGHS]

521
00:30:23,511 --> 00:30:26,510
[Street sounds]

522
00:30:30,082 --> 00:30:31,765
I'm here. What can I tell you?

523
00:30:32,885 --> 00:30:35,510
Anybody ever tell you you
make a lousy tail, Bobby?

524
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,510
Aw, come on, Lieutenant.

525
00:30:37,511 --> 00:30:39,275
At least I can keep my eye on you.

526
00:30:46,103 --> 00:30:48,510
It's okay, Stavros. We're still engaged.

527
00:30:48,511 --> 00:30:50,083
What's happening here?

528
00:30:50,511 --> 00:30:52,129
Here? No.

529
00:30:52,284 --> 00:30:54,283
There's no sweat here, Lieutenant.

530
00:30:54,511 --> 00:30:58,216
We found ourselves two great eyewitnesses,
though. Art students, no less.

531
00:30:58,310 --> 00:31:02,006
They're gonna go back to the station
to sketch their way to fame and fortune.

532
00:31:02,264 --> 00:31:06,063
They saw some guy lean into the car.
They didn't hear nothing, though.

533
00:31:06,511 --> 00:31:08,167
Probably used a silencer.

534
00:31:09,763 --> 00:31:12,691
Well, young lady, I've got a few
more questions that I want to ask you,

535
00:31:12,716 --> 00:31:15,510
then we'll have to go down to the station.
It shouldn't take too long.

536
00:31:18,870 --> 00:31:22,110
Okay.
See if they can pick out Crater's photo.

537
00:31:22,111 --> 00:31:24,782
And, uh, don't help them.

538
00:31:25,111 --> 00:31:26,843
-Saperstein? -Yeah.

539
00:31:27,111 --> 00:31:30,110
Go down to Criminal Court and corner a D.A.
in the complaint room.

540
00:31:30,111 --> 00:31:32,367
Throw up a felony warrant for Crater.
Go ahead.

541
00:31:32,392 --> 00:31:33,212
Right.

542
00:31:33,811 --> 00:31:35,810
They both kicked him right out. One look.

543
00:31:35,811 --> 00:31:37,810
Ah. Oriso.

544
00:31:37,811 --> 00:31:41,958
Make notifications to the Chief
of Detectives and the borough

545
00:31:41,983 --> 00:31:44,901
that we'll be leaving the city
and state on official business.

546
00:31:44,926 --> 00:31:46,810
Ellsberg, New Jersey. I'll tell McNeil.

547
00:31:46,811 --> 00:31:48,332
All right.

548
00:32:09,061 --> 00:32:10,810
You can't extradite with this warrant.

549
00:32:10,811 --> 00:32:13,662
That's enough to hold him till I can
get the case before the grand jury.

550
00:32:13,687 --> 00:32:15,686
Hey, you want to be a cop again?
Then do it.

551
00:32:16,060 --> 00:32:18,810
I could have gone to the state
troopers with this, but I came to you.

552
00:32:18,811 --> 00:32:20,810
I want Crater tonight,
and you can deliver him.

553
00:32:20,811 --> 00:32:22,271
And why should I get into it?

554
00:32:22,555 --> 00:32:24,810
I did what was right in the
first place and warned you.

555
00:32:25,254 --> 00:32:27,127
Going after them is the end of my bubble.

556
00:32:27,891 --> 00:32:29,810
I thought you might
want a chance to do some

557
00:32:29,811 --> 00:32:31,810
things that should have
been done a long time ago.

558
00:32:31,811 --> 00:32:33,810
Like what? Pay my wife's hospital bills?

559
00:32:34,250 --> 00:32:35,503
Hey, Joe.

560
00:32:37,226 --> 00:32:39,506
Get a job in a supermarket, nice.

561
00:32:39,531 --> 00:32:42,179
Go drive a cab.
What the hell difference does it make?

562
00:32:42,500 --> 00:32:45,053
But at least be what you
always wanted to be before you...

563
00:32:45,140 --> 00:32:47,470
before you fell off the train.

564
00:32:50,757 --> 00:32:52,171
It's decision time, huh?

565
00:32:54,996 --> 00:32:57,786
Well, I might as well go
down in a Blaze of glory.

566
00:32:58,740 --> 00:33:01,810
At least I can finish off
being a cop by being a cop.

567
00:33:01,811 --> 00:33:03,277
There are two places to hit.

568
00:33:03,592 --> 00:33:06,298
If we do it quick enough, we may
have him before he goes underground.

569
00:33:17,951 --> 00:33:20,979
All right, hold it right there.
On the wall. On the wall.

570
00:33:21,004 --> 00:33:22,210
Move it.

571
00:33:32,445 --> 00:33:35,502
We'll try and move faster
than that grapevine now.

572
00:33:36,510 --> 00:33:38,510
Your men, are they okay?

573
00:33:38,511 --> 00:33:41,826
Just one rotten apple. The barrel's fine.

574
00:34:07,901 --> 00:34:08,901
Louis!

575
00:34:08,926 --> 00:34:09,747
Come here.

576
00:34:15,492 --> 00:34:19,371
I, uh... I need the keys to
the locker at the terminal.

577
00:34:19,396 --> 00:34:20,401
For the guns?

578
00:34:20,411 --> 00:34:21,410
Yeah, that's right.

579
00:34:21,411 --> 00:34:22,386
Okay.

580
00:34:32,674 --> 00:34:33,883
Let's move it!

581
00:34:33,908 --> 00:34:35,410
Come on!

582
00:34:53,839 --> 00:34:54,813
Uh-huh.

583
00:34:56,136 --> 00:34:58,410
Now, which one of these is the big mouth?

584
00:34:59,213 --> 00:35:01,333
There's nobody louder than Louis here.

585
00:35:01,411 --> 00:35:02,579
Oh.

586
00:35:04,817 --> 00:35:05,817
Hello, Louis.

587
00:35:06,874 --> 00:35:08,134
Where you from?

588
00:35:08,300 --> 00:35:09,410
Arkansas.

589
00:35:09,411 --> 00:35:11,723
Okay, I thought it was Tuxedo Park.

590
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:12,714
Yeah.

591
00:35:12,853 --> 00:35:15,010
You ever deliver newspapers
when you were a kid?

592
00:35:15,011 --> 00:35:16,379
Yeah, so what?

593
00:35:16,404 --> 00:35:18,010
Well, you're back in business.

594
00:35:18,465 --> 00:35:20,882
You know, apparently old
man Vigger's message either

595
00:35:20,894 --> 00:35:23,010
didn't get to you or doesn't
mean anything to you.

596
00:35:23,524 --> 00:35:27,269
But anyone who stays with Junior, he's
gonna get more of what we did here tonight.

597
00:35:27,294 --> 00:35:29,010
Now, you understand, Louis?

598
00:35:29,011 --> 00:35:30,496
Yeah, yeah, I understand.

599
00:35:31,424 --> 00:35:34,914
Enough to deliver your papers to
all your stops here and in New York?

600
00:35:34,939 --> 00:35:36,010
Yeah, sure.

601
00:35:40,051 --> 00:35:41,010
What did I tell you?

602
00:35:41,909 --> 00:35:43,010
Goodbye, Sonny.

603
00:35:43,612 --> 00:35:46,611
And be careful with the trolley
cars when you cross Second Avenue.

604
00:35:48,197 --> 00:35:50,303
Yeah, we got all kinds of heat now.

605
00:35:50,350 --> 00:35:52,391
Even that hip cop is in on it now.

606
00:35:52,416 --> 00:35:53,533
Your boy, Keene.

607
00:35:53,713 --> 00:35:54,936
What are you talking about?

608
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:56,350
They're cracking up or something?

609
00:35:56,375 --> 00:35:59,910
Look, they just busted into the club
and they took the rest of the guys.

610
00:35:59,911 --> 00:36:01,910
Now I heard they did the same
thing over at the plumbing shop.

611
00:36:01,911 --> 00:36:03,492
Now I get the word they're looking for me.

612
00:36:03,517 --> 00:36:04,516
Now what's going on?

613
00:36:04,541 --> 00:36:05,540
Alright, alright, alright.

614
00:36:05,565 --> 00:36:07,136
Just take it easy. Take it easy.

615
00:36:08,446 --> 00:36:10,510
There's gotta be some angle to this.
It don't make sense.

616
00:36:11,148 --> 00:36:12,823
You meet me at the bus station.

617
00:36:12,888 --> 00:36:14,185
In the waiting room.

618
00:36:14,210 --> 00:36:14,951
Right.

619
00:36:22,243 --> 00:36:23,022
Hello?

620
00:36:23,047 --> 00:36:24,561
Yeah, this is Mike, Junior.

621
00:36:24,585 --> 00:36:26,299
Some of my people got picked up tonight.

622
00:36:26,324 --> 00:36:27,510
They're over at the Ellisburg station.

623
00:36:27,511 --> 00:36:29,254
I want you to go over
there and get them out, now.

624
00:36:29,376 --> 00:36:32,510
I would suggest that you call the
public defender's office in the morning.

625
00:36:33,004 --> 00:36:35,510
What are you talking about?
Get over there, now!

626
00:36:35,511 --> 00:36:37,025
I thought that you'd know by now.

627
00:36:37,050 --> 00:36:38,510
I no longer represent you.

628
00:36:38,511 --> 00:36:39,510
I'm sorry.

629
00:36:55,056 --> 00:36:56,057
You okay?

630
00:36:56,082 --> 00:36:57,082
Yeah, I'm great.

631
00:36:57,299 --> 00:36:59,510
Look, we gotta get our people together.

632
00:36:59,511 --> 00:37:01,510
There's things happening.
I don't understand.

633
00:37:01,511 --> 00:37:03,510
What people? We don't have any more people.

634
00:37:03,511 --> 00:37:04,510
What do you mean?

635
00:37:04,511 --> 00:37:06,346
Your old man put the word out.

636
00:37:06,371 --> 00:37:07,851
We got our own people.

637
00:37:10,737 --> 00:37:12,308
You got nothing.

638
00:37:13,420 --> 00:37:16,289
Now listen, will you?
Kojak put out the word, too.

639
00:37:16,733 --> 00:37:18,732
Stay away from Junior.

640
00:37:18,757 --> 00:37:20,510
Now the word's all over.

641
00:37:21,571 --> 00:37:23,289
They're scared of him. He can't do nothing.

642
00:37:23,314 --> 00:37:25,510
Well, it's not that they're scared.
It's that they're smart.

643
00:37:25,511 --> 00:37:28,510
Smart enough to sit back
and see who the winner will be.

644
00:37:29,261 --> 00:37:31,245
And Mike, this Kojak is tough.

645
00:37:31,270 --> 00:37:34,202
And you, they're not so sure about.

646
00:37:35,083 --> 00:37:37,057
Twenty-five grand I'll pay him.

647
00:37:37,314 --> 00:37:38,980
I'm setting you up, my right hand.

648
00:37:39,005 --> 00:37:41,375
How come you ain't dumped
this lieutenant right in some gutter?

649
00:37:45,796 --> 00:37:46,896
All right.

650
00:37:48,602 --> 00:37:50,242
He's in Jersey.

651
00:37:50,511 --> 00:37:51,912
We hit him now.

652
00:37:51,937 --> 00:37:54,253
We got enough on the judges
and some of the politicians.

653
00:37:54,278 --> 00:37:55,510
They gotta go with us.

654
00:37:56,053 --> 00:37:57,186
Open it.

655
00:38:03,824 --> 00:38:05,828
We get rid of Kojak tonight.

656
00:38:16,784 --> 00:38:18,335
You think Keene will come up with Crater?

657
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,510
Well, if he isn't trying, he's
giving me a pretty good imitation.

658
00:38:25,322 --> 00:38:28,322
You know, if it wasn't for my
bad shoulder... Bad shoulder.

659
00:38:28,347 --> 00:38:29,346
I'd give you a hand, you know?

660
00:38:29,371 --> 00:38:29,747
A hand.

661
00:38:29,772 --> 00:38:31,213
But I'll hold the flashlight for you.

662
00:38:31,238 --> 00:38:31,860
Flashlight.

663
00:38:31,885 --> 00:38:33,066
I'll drive the car into the curb.

664
00:38:33,091 --> 00:38:34,091
Get off of the curb.

665
00:38:34,868 --> 00:38:35,868
Now, come on.

666
00:38:38,698 --> 00:38:40,510
Let me get it off the road.

667
00:38:40,660 --> 00:38:41,660
Cool.

668
00:38:43,510 --> 00:38:45,383
(car engine starts).

669
00:39:49,423 --> 00:39:51,363
Kojak, get out of there!

670
00:39:51,753 --> 00:39:53,510


671
00:39:54,644 --> 00:39:56,510
(gunshots)

672
00:39:56,511 --> 00:40:01,510
(gunshots)

673
00:40:01,511 --> 00:40:04,188
(tires screech)

674
00:40:05,732 --> 00:40:07,486
(tires screech)

675
00:40:29,563 --> 00:40:30,727
I missed it.

676
00:40:30,752 --> 00:40:32,511
You hear me? We missed...

677
00:40:34,448 --> 00:40:36,510
(screams)

678
00:40:40,273 --> 00:40:42,766
(screams)

679
00:40:52,476 --> 00:40:56,486
I know I can't order you, so
I'm going to ask you nicely.

680
00:40:56,511 --> 00:40:57,884
Get lost!

681
00:40:57,909 --> 00:41:01,161
Take a couple of weeks, anywhere,
just until we pick up Viggers and Crater.

682
00:41:01,186 --> 00:41:01,854
No.

683
00:41:02,084 --> 00:41:03,083
Just no?

684
00:41:03,202 --> 00:41:06,248
Not even a philosophical
discussion or an argument?

685
00:41:06,273 --> 00:41:07,510
(phone rings)

686
00:41:10,725 --> 00:41:11,859

Yeah, well, thank you.

That was the feds.

690
00:41:23,457 --> 00:41:25,668
They just found Crater's
body in that garbage

691
00:41:25,693 --> 00:41:27,964
truck somewhere in Jersey
with two bullets in them.

692
00:41:28,150 --> 00:41:31,779
They look like Keene's bullets,
so you might say he finished well.

693

Oh, sure.

694

his name for a few weeks.

he's on his way to Florida right now.

698
00:41:43,511 --> 00:41:47,753
Well, he obviously has no brains,
and he obviously isn't finished with you.

699

Getting you is his last
chance to play the big hero.

701

He's got nobody to impress anymore.

me, it's all personal by now.

to Georgia, Alabama, you pick it.

to tuck in my tail and hide?

gives me a complaint.
