1
00:01:00,396 --> 00:01:01,251
You know,
2
00:01:02,171 --> 00:01:05,147
I do a shitload of reading
and studying and praying,
3
00:01:05,167 --> 00:01:07,382
and I've come to a few
conclusions I want to share.
4
00:01:08,312 --> 00:01:11,779
People look at politicians and celebrities
on the TV and the newspapers,
5
00:01:11,863 --> 00:01:13,977
glossy magazines.
What do they see?
6
00:01:14,887 --> 00:01:18,410
"I'm just like them.
" That's what they say. "I'm special.
7
00:01:18,495 --> 00:01:20,261
I'm different.
I could be any one of them."
8
00:01:20,281 --> 00:01:22,974
Well, guess what?
You can't. You know why?
9
00:01:23,331 --> 00:01:26,418
'Cause in reality, mediocrity's
where most people live.
10
00:01:26,503 --> 00:01:30,297
Mediocrity is the elephant in the room.
It's ubiquitous.
11
00:01:30,381 --> 00:01:33,213
Mediocrity in your schools.
It's in your dreams.
12
00:01:33,326 --> 00:01:34,781
It's in your family.
13
00:01:35,655 --> 00:01:37,262
And those of us who know this,
14
00:01:37,347 --> 00:01:41,642
those of us who understand the disease
of the dull, we do something about it.
15
00:01:41,662 --> 00:01:43,977
We do more because we have to.
16
00:01:44,062 --> 00:01:46,081
The deck was always
stacked against us.
17
00:01:46,325 --> 00:01:52,069
You're either a big leaguer, or you're a
slave clawing your way onto the "C" train.
18
00:01:52,089 --> 00:01:55,572
Some people say Jack Αbramoff moves
too fast, Jack Abramoff cuts corners.
19
00:01:55,657 --> 00:01:59,576
Well, I say to them, if that's the difference
between me and my family having a good life...
20
00:01:59,661 --> 00:02:02,759
and walkin' and using the subway
every day, then so be it.
21
00:02:03,172 --> 00:02:06,375
I will not allow my
family to be slaves.
22
00:02:06,459 --> 00:02:10,838
I will not allow the world
I touch to be vanilla.
23
00:02:10,922 --> 00:02:12,840
You say I'm selfish? Fuck you!
24
00:02:12,924 --> 00:02:14,842
I give back. I give back plenty.
25
00:02:14,926 --> 00:02:17,761
You say I... I got a big ego?
Fuck you twice!
26
00:02:17,846 --> 00:02:22,099
I'm humbly grateful for the wonderful
gifts that I've received here in America,
27
00:02:22,183 --> 00:02:24,893
the greatest country
on this planet.
28
00:02:26,104 --> 00:02:27,980
I'm Jack Abramoff.
29
00:02:28,064 --> 00:02:31,942
And oh, yeah,
I work out every day.
30
00:02:58,636 --> 00:03:02,431
Mr. Sprague.
Susan Schmidt of the Washington Post.
31
00:03:04,142 --> 00:03:06,476
Find it all right? Yeah.
Thanks for seeing me.
32
00:03:06,561 --> 00:03:08,729
I got a lot of questions for you.
Ah.
33
00:03:08,813 --> 00:03:10,731
Jack Abramoff, right?
34
00:03:10,815 --> 00:03:13,358
I hear he was charging your
tribe an exorbitant fee.
35
00:03:13,443 --> 00:03:15,861
Thirty million or more.
36
00:03:15,945 --> 00:03:18,113
So I guess you met his
partner, Mike Scanlon, too?
37
00:03:18,198 --> 00:03:20,657
Oh, yeah. He's a real cowboy.
38
00:03:20,742 --> 00:03:23,535
Looks like they might
be in some trouble.
39
00:03:32,212 --> 00:03:32,913
Jack?
40
00:03:33,064 --> 00:03:34,713
Honey. Jack. Dad!
41
00:03:34,797 --> 00:03:35,447
Mikey.
42
00:03:35,467 --> 00:03:37,716
Hey, I've been calling you all day, dude.
Where are you?
43
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,968
I'm in L.A.
What the fuck are you doing in L.A.?
44
00:03:40,053 --> 00:03:41,595
Our world is collapsing here.
45
00:03:41,679 --> 00:03:43,680
Wait. What have you heard?
Are you gonna be indicted?
46
00:03:43,765 --> 00:03:46,934
Well, I got federal marshals looking for me, okay?
I've had a hundred media calls today.
47
00:03:47,018 --> 00:03:49,770
We're under horrific assault from
the worst forces in our culture.
48
00:03:49,854 --> 00:03:52,022
I know. I know. You're the only
one that's returned my calls.
49
00:03:52,106 --> 00:03:54,983
The president's probably destroying
every picture he ever took with you.
50
00:03:55,068 --> 00:03:57,736
Well, you're no one in this
town until you haven't met us.
51
00:03:57,820 --> 00:03:59,446
That isn't funny, Jack.
52
00:03:59,530 --> 00:04:01,823
Don't fucking mess
with my chi, dude.
53
00:04:01,908 --> 00:04:04,243
I'm serious.
We are super-fucked here, okay?
54
00:04:04,327 --> 00:04:06,411
They're calling us the
new Watergate, Jack.
55
00:04:06,496 --> 00:04:10,332
We're about to be on the Nightly News.
You need to get back to D.C., now.
56
00:04:12,669 --> 00:04:14,836
Step up to the line.
57
00:04:16,297 --> 00:04:18,298
Dear Mr. President,
58
00:04:19,842 --> 00:04:22,552
I write you this petition
with hope and prayers.
59
00:04:24,097 --> 00:04:27,391
As a man of faith, I have come to
see God move in mysterious ways.
60
00:04:29,185 --> 00:04:31,478
After we're born, he gives
us the choice of two paths.
61
00:04:31,562 --> 00:04:33,563
Please don't smile.
62
00:04:33,648 --> 00:04:36,024
I'm not smiling.
63
00:04:37,235 --> 00:04:39,611
Accept the world
for the way it is,
64
00:04:39,696 --> 00:04:41,863
or see it for how we
might want it to be.
65
00:04:41,948 --> 00:04:43,991
Turn to your right.
66
00:04:45,201 --> 00:04:46,702
Your right.
67
00:04:49,539 --> 00:04:51,999
To me, the choice was obvious.
68
00:04:53,084 --> 00:04:55,627
How long are you gonna
be holding me here?
69
00:04:55,712 --> 00:04:57,713
You can get that information
from your lawyer.
70
00:04:57,797 --> 00:05:00,132
I do get my own cell, right?
71
00:05:00,216 --> 00:05:03,051
And I only eat kosher, okay?
72
00:05:03,136 --> 00:05:04,970
You do serve kosher, don't you?
73
00:05:06,556 --> 00:05:09,599
Mr. Abramoff, this is a
federal holding facility.
74
00:05:09,684 --> 00:05:11,643
It's not kosher.
75
00:05:39,964 --> 00:05:41,631
Jack Abramoff.
76
00:05:43,426 --> 00:05:44,760
Snake.
77
00:05:45,928 --> 00:05:47,888
What are you in for, Snake?
78
00:05:48,765 --> 00:05:50,265
Assault and battery,
79
00:05:51,059 --> 00:05:52,726
resisting arrest.
80
00:05:52,810 --> 00:05:54,978
Chickenshit beef like that.
81
00:05:55,063 --> 00:05:57,189
How about you?
82
00:05:57,273 --> 00:06:00,525
Oh, me? I'm...
83
00:06:00,610 --> 00:06:04,404
I work in D.C.
I'm a... I'm a lobbyist.
84
00:06:04,489 --> 00:06:07,657
Lobbyist. That against the law?
85
00:06:29,972 --> 00:06:32,474
Next to God, faith and country,
86
00:06:32,558 --> 00:06:34,518
nothing is more important
than influence.
87
00:06:34,602 --> 00:06:36,686
Political influence.
88
00:06:38,564 --> 00:06:42,067
Influence with the powerful
is like influence with God.
89
00:06:42,151 --> 00:06:46,905
Without it, there's only eternal hellfire,
damnation and congressional logjam.
90
00:06:46,989 --> 00:06:51,868
Here the influence we wield is more
important than the air you breathe.
91
00:06:51,953 --> 00:06:56,206
As a licensed lobbyist, I am legally allowed
to accept money from special interests...
92
00:06:56,290 --> 00:06:59,418
in order to influence
Congress on their behalf.
93
00:06:59,502 --> 00:07:03,422
I'm essentially a conduit to
motivating sleepy lawmakers...
94
00:07:03,506 --> 00:07:05,590
into getting bills passed
and legislation done.
95
00:07:05,675 --> 00:07:08,969
Well, our client is extremely anxious
to know what's in your bill.
96
00:07:09,053 --> 00:07:10,971
The reality is,
without lobbyists,
97
00:07:11,055 --> 00:07:13,306
the wheels of Washington would
come to a grinding halt.
98
00:07:13,391 --> 00:07:15,600
About how much are you looking
to raise with the event?
99
00:07:15,685 --> 00:07:17,602
Can you tell me that
in dollar terms?
100
00:07:17,687 --> 00:07:20,439
Why? Because the most powerful
members of Congress...
101
00:07:20,523 --> 00:07:24,568
rely on lobbyists like me for information
to guide them on how to vote.
102
00:07:24,652 --> 00:07:29,364
And how they vote sometimes requires
taking them on fact-finding missions.
103
00:07:30,491 --> 00:07:32,617
Like House majority
leader Tom DeLay,
104
00:07:32,702 --> 00:07:35,871
who we brought to the Northern Mariana
Islands in the South Pacific...
105
00:07:35,955 --> 00:07:38,373
a U.S. territory where
my textile clients...
106
00:07:38,458 --> 00:07:40,792
produce American-made
designer clothes...
107
00:07:40,877 --> 00:07:43,170
without having to
pay minimum wage.
108
00:07:43,254 --> 00:07:45,714
Well, these folks seem happy.
How are you?
109
00:07:45,798 --> 00:07:47,591
Hello. Thank you. Uh-huh.
110
00:07:47,675 --> 00:07:50,760
I think we should be able to
vote favorably on this, Jack.
111
00:07:50,845 --> 00:07:54,347
For example, your top-of-the-line
stonewashed jeans...
112
00:07:54,432 --> 00:07:56,725
can stay on sale for 19.95...
113
00:07:56,809 --> 00:08:00,270
simply because labor costs in the
Marianas remain low. Morning.
114
00:08:00,354 --> 00:08:02,272
Jack is pushing Mr.
DeLay hard...
115
00:08:02,356 --> 00:08:05,108
to make sure the minimum wage legislation
stays off Congress's schedule.
116
00:08:05,193 --> 00:08:07,110
Hey, you troglodytes,
will you make sure...
117
00:08:07,195 --> 00:08:09,112
that DeLay gets the latest
export numbers from Willie...
118
00:08:09,197 --> 00:08:10,989
in case the Senate tries
to kill this thing?
119
00:08:11,073 --> 00:08:12,949
Oui, mon capitaine.
120
00:08:13,034 --> 00:08:17,579
Lobbying is nothing more than
American-style democracy in action.
121
00:08:17,663 --> 00:08:20,207
And the more influence we have,
122
00:08:20,291 --> 00:08:22,250
the bigger the smiles
on our kids' faces.
123
00:08:22,335 --> 00:08:23,543
Oh, my God!
124
00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:28,590
Good morning, gentlemen.
Grover, what brings you to the locker room?
125
00:08:28,674 --> 00:08:30,592
Don't even bother trying to
pitch him on our new clients.
126
00:08:30,676 --> 00:08:33,428
He has issues with helping
our native people.
127
00:08:33,513 --> 00:08:35,514
Just with Native
Americans, Jack.
128
00:08:35,598 --> 00:08:37,807
What do they have to do with
Americans for Tax Reform?
129
00:08:37,892 --> 00:08:39,434
I need your help on
this one, Grover.
130
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:41,937
I need the congressional friends
in your organization...
131
00:08:42,021 --> 00:08:45,065
to understand that there are certain
American Indian tribes that need help.
132
00:08:45,149 --> 00:08:47,359
Jack, the United
States, from day one,
133
00:08:47,443 --> 00:08:50,862
was founded on the basis that you
could be or do anything you want to.
134
00:08:50,947 --> 00:08:52,864
You're in charge of
your own future.
135
00:08:52,949 --> 00:08:56,284
There's no ceiling. There's no floor.
You want to be a bum, you can be a bum.
136
00:08:56,369 --> 00:08:59,287
You want to accomplish great
things, you can do that too.
137
00:08:59,372 --> 00:09:03,041
So, if some Native Americans choose
to live in third world conditions,
138
00:09:03,125 --> 00:09:05,627
why is that my problem, hmm?
139
00:09:05,711 --> 00:09:07,379
Are those pistachios?
140
00:09:07,463 --> 00:09:09,714
- Yeah.
- Genius.
141
00:09:09,799 --> 00:09:12,634
- He's here, Jack.
- Listen. This is perfect for you, Grover.
142
00:09:12,718 --> 00:09:14,719
It's philanthropic.
I mean, the money we're saving them...
143
00:09:14,804 --> 00:09:17,013
is essentially paying for their
health clinics and schools.
144
00:09:17,098 --> 00:09:18,807
Help them help themselves.
145
00:09:18,891 --> 00:09:21,476
Yeah. Come on. There's no one in
this town as persuasive as you are.
146
00:09:21,561 --> 00:09:24,396
- You're a Harvard man, dude.
- Yeah, yeah. The man with the crimson tongue.
147
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,608
Grover, all we're trying to do is
help these people empower themselves.
148
00:09:28,693 --> 00:09:31,945
Jack, I've known
you for 25 years.
149
00:09:32,029 --> 00:09:33,989
Why do I think your
social gravitas...
150
00:09:34,073 --> 00:09:38,034
is more than just about
health clinics and schools?
151
00:09:52,883 --> 00:09:54,884
Veuve Clicquot, sir.
152
00:09:54,969 --> 00:09:57,137
Thank you. You're welcome.
153
00:09:59,015 --> 00:10:01,433
Iced tea. Thank you.
154
00:10:01,517 --> 00:10:04,519
Merlot with three ice cubes.
Thank you.
155
00:10:04,604 --> 00:10:08,148
Dude, seriously, I think I once got
a lap dance from her at Nexus Gold.
156
00:10:08,232 --> 00:10:10,150
I wouldn't know, Mikey.
I'm married.
157
00:10:10,234 --> 00:10:13,570
I thought I recognized her too.
See? I knew it.
158
00:10:13,654 --> 00:10:17,574
I think the good Lord would prefer I
have deaf ears on this one, boys.
159
00:10:17,658 --> 00:10:19,117
We all set? Check.
160
00:10:19,201 --> 00:10:21,494
Eighteen holes, St.
Andrews, five-star hotel.
161
00:10:21,579 --> 00:10:24,956
Hugh Fraser, British Open champ, on hand
to give a lesson. La-di-fucking-da.
162
00:10:25,041 --> 00:10:29,127
Restaurant tour of Edinburgh and a two-day
stopover at the Hyde Park Oriental in London.
163
00:10:29,211 --> 00:10:31,963
Oh. V.l.P.
tickets to The Lion King for Tom.
164
00:10:32,048 --> 00:10:33,798
Great.
165
00:10:38,929 --> 00:10:43,141
Okay.
Nice soft grip, soft hands.
166
00:10:43,225 --> 00:10:46,269
Take a whack at her. Go on.
167
00:10:46,354 --> 00:10:49,356
You made contact. Great.
Now I gotta sandbag my drive...
168
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,400
so Poncho doesn't spew in his shoes with envy?
Poncho's been primed.
169
00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:54,861
I've arranged to have his picture
taken with Bush when we get back.
170
00:10:54,945 --> 00:10:58,823
Three years ago, his tribe is weaving
pine needles and selling key chains.
171
00:10:58,908 --> 00:11:02,160
Now all he wants to do is drive a
Hummer and buy condos in Hawaii.
172
00:11:02,244 --> 00:11:06,331
Can you tell me why these clowns get
to own casinos and make 20 mil a year?
173
00:11:06,415 --> 00:11:08,166
Well, I don't know.
Maybe 300 years of genocide.
174
00:11:08,250 --> 00:11:11,169
That not a good enough reason for you, champ?
Oh. Are you part Mohawk now?
175
00:11:11,253 --> 00:11:12,962
Yes, indeed.
176
00:11:13,047 --> 00:11:15,090
Kemosabe.
One of the lost tribes of Israel.
177
00:11:15,174 --> 00:11:17,133
Yeah, yeah.
You're practically an Indian, dude.
178
00:11:17,218 --> 00:11:18,718
Probably why they
like you so much.
179
00:11:18,803 --> 00:11:20,929
That's what I'm talking about.
180
00:11:21,013 --> 00:11:23,014
You know what blows my mind?
181
00:11:23,099 --> 00:11:26,768
All these Indians are so damn rich, and
they're still acting like Wal-Mart shoppers.
182
00:11:26,852 --> 00:11:29,521
He's a multimillionaire,
Jack, with a $10 watch.
183
00:11:29,605 --> 00:11:32,023
Just think. If you and I could
access some of that liquid,
184
00:11:32,108 --> 00:11:34,234
we would be running D.C. in no time.
185
00:11:34,318 --> 00:11:36,236
What are you suggesting?
186
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:40,407
I'm suggesting that they pay us a
ridiculous amount of money, okay?
187
00:11:40,491 --> 00:11:43,743
And then you and I can split
the fee 50-50 under the table.
188
00:11:43,828 --> 00:11:46,371
It's a little tough
on the Chippewa.
189
00:11:46,455 --> 00:11:48,707
Not to mention, is it legal?
190
00:11:48,791 --> 00:11:51,543
What are they gonna do?
Cancel my membership at the ACLU? Come on.
191
00:11:51,627 --> 00:11:54,546
Well, you know, I got a
limit on what I can charge.
192
00:11:54,630 --> 00:11:56,798
That sucks for you, but
I'm freelance, Jack.
193
00:11:56,882 --> 00:11:59,175
I'm grassroots, baby.
194
00:11:59,260 --> 00:12:02,011
You're always complaining
about living hand to mouth.
195
00:12:02,096 --> 00:12:05,432
You know what?
You deserve better.
196
00:12:05,516 --> 00:12:07,517
Okay?
And Chief Shanks-a-Lot there...
197
00:12:07,601 --> 00:12:10,687
is our ticket out
of hourly fee hell.
198
00:12:10,771 --> 00:12:12,731
That's it, Chief.
199
00:12:12,815 --> 00:12:16,651
Okay. Put together a pitch for Tonto.
Let's see what he says.
200
00:12:16,736 --> 00:12:18,903
Looks good.
201
00:12:18,988 --> 00:12:21,865
Now, Chief, it's a simple thing.
202
00:12:21,949 --> 00:12:23,867
Look.
I've handled the Coushattas,
203
00:12:23,951 --> 00:12:26,411
the Tiguas, the Aguas Calientes,
204
00:12:26,495 --> 00:12:28,413
and I tell them all the
same thing, Chief:
205
00:12:28,497 --> 00:12:30,832
I know what it feels like to
be a persecuted minority.
206
00:12:30,916 --> 00:12:32,959
Yeah? Well, it's about time
you guys in Washington...
207
00:12:33,043 --> 00:12:35,253
finally did something
good for Indian people.
208
00:12:35,337 --> 00:12:37,756
Like give America back?
209
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,675
You got a real sense of humor, Jack.
I like that.
210
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,887
Look. The casino is a
plus if it's profitable.
211
00:12:43,971 --> 00:12:46,598
But in reality, the gaming
industry is very competitive.
212
00:12:46,682 --> 00:12:49,851
You know, the Jena tribe, they want
to open up their own casino now.
213
00:12:49,935 --> 00:12:51,770
They're just one state away.
214
00:12:51,854 --> 00:12:55,148
Yeah, and I know those guys.
They can be brutal.
215
00:12:56,776 --> 00:12:58,777
They can shut you
down mega-fast.
216
00:12:58,861 --> 00:13:01,404
No more Chippewa casino.
217
00:13:01,489 --> 00:13:03,490
You need our help, Chief.
218
00:13:03,574 --> 00:13:04,574
Hmm.
219
00:13:04,658 --> 00:13:06,493
You heard Mike's proposal?
220
00:13:06,577 --> 00:13:10,163
It's a tough call.
It's a hell of a fee you're asking for.
221
00:13:10,247 --> 00:13:14,125
Kind of a record, isn't it?
But think of the billions that you're gonna save.
222
00:13:14,210 --> 00:13:19,005
I can guarantee you that goddamn
Jena tribe casino will never open.
223
00:13:19,089 --> 00:13:22,425
And before you know it, the Jena tribe's
gonna be back selling moccasins.
224
00:13:23,844 --> 00:13:27,180
You know, Mr. Abramoff, we
can't afford to lose this one.
225
00:13:27,264 --> 00:13:29,933
You won't. Swear to God.
226
00:13:33,229 --> 00:13:36,022
Give me five!
227
00:13:36,106 --> 00:13:39,400
- A toast to Team Abramoff!
- Whoo!
228
00:13:39,485 --> 00:13:42,320
- To Team Abramoff.
- To giving America back to the Indians.
229
00:13:42,404 --> 00:13:44,405
All hail to Washington's
biggest retainers.
230
00:13:44,490 --> 00:13:46,741
Fuckin'-A!
You are no one in this town...
231
00:13:46,826 --> 00:13:49,202
unless you haven't met
Jack fuckin' Abramoff.
232
00:13:49,286 --> 00:13:50,787
Take it easy, Bill.
233
00:13:50,871 --> 00:13:53,081
- Jack, you know Emily, my fiancee. Everybody.
- Oh, sure.
234
00:13:53,165 --> 00:13:56,209
- From the, uh, Bush inaugural.
- I'll never forget that night.
235
00:13:56,293 --> 00:13:58,628
McCain was in his office
pounding Bushmills. "We lost!"
236
00:13:58,712 --> 00:14:02,090
It's nice to see the moderates
bleed from every orifice.
237
00:14:02,174 --> 00:14:04,217
Amen to that.
238
00:14:04,301 --> 00:14:07,428
Hey, Jack.
Those Polynesian factories you rep,
239
00:14:07,513 --> 00:14:09,639
uh, that make the blue jeans
on the Mariana Islands.
240
00:14:09,723 --> 00:14:11,349
Yeah? What about them?
241
00:14:11,433 --> 00:14:14,018
Word on the street is they're
goddamn sweatshops and rape camps.
242
00:14:14,103 --> 00:14:17,772
Oh, all you guys from the Washington
Post want to be Woodward and Bernstein.
243
00:14:17,857 --> 00:14:19,357
- Fuckin' pathetic.
- That so?
244
00:14:19,441 --> 00:14:22,110
The Labor Department just fined
your client nine million dollars.
245
00:14:22,194 --> 00:14:24,737
- Must be for something.
- Hey, listen, Ben Bradlee.
246
00:14:24,822 --> 00:14:27,323
Mistakes will happen, but the truth is
you can't tell me those immigrants...
247
00:14:27,408 --> 00:14:30,243
aren't making more money than they would in
China and sending it back to their families.
248
00:14:30,327 --> 00:14:33,246
That's right, Scotty. We're just greasing
the wheel with American dollars, baby.
249
00:14:33,330 --> 00:14:36,124
- Capitalism at its finest.
- Doing the Lord's work.
250
00:14:36,208 --> 00:14:38,835
Doesn't sound much like
American democracy to me.
251
00:14:38,919 --> 00:14:41,546
Don't be stupid.
No democracy, no fucking capitalism.
252
00:14:41,630 --> 00:14:43,756
No capitalism, no
fucking democracy.
253
00:14:43,841 --> 00:14:47,385
Only goddamn communistic
slave-driven bolshevism.
254
00:14:47,469 --> 00:14:50,054
- Thank you, Joe McCarthy.
- Fuckin' elitist!
255
00:14:50,139 --> 00:14:51,389
What?
256
00:14:51,473 --> 00:14:53,182
What is wrong with you? God.
257
00:14:53,267 --> 00:14:54,559
Calm down!
258
00:14:54,643 --> 00:14:57,395
Someone call 911.
Scott is a hemophiliac.
259
00:14:57,479 --> 00:15:00,106
You just hit a hemophiliac
reporter from the Washington Post!
260
00:15:00,190 --> 00:15:02,942
Come on! Oh, great.
Another bleeding heart liberal.
261
00:15:03,027 --> 00:15:06,321
It's okay. It's okay. Jesus.
262
00:15:07,156 --> 00:15:09,157
This isn't good.
263
00:15:23,380 --> 00:15:25,340
Enid, get DeLay for me, will ya?
264
00:15:25,424 --> 00:15:28,509
Should I remind him of Bible
class Thursday afternoon?
265
00:15:28,594 --> 00:15:30,595
- Bible class Thursday?
- Yeah.
266
00:15:30,679 --> 00:15:33,222
Jack, remember, I switched
it with your golf game.
267
00:15:34,308 --> 00:15:36,309
Well, Enid,
268
00:15:36,393 --> 00:15:40,271
you know, sometimes, even those of
us who occupy the Oval Office...
269
00:15:40,356 --> 00:15:42,523
can have our senior moments.
270
00:15:42,608 --> 00:15:44,734
Yes, Mr. President.
271
00:15:44,818 --> 00:15:48,571
Oh, Jack, Mr. Rouvelas is here.
272
00:15:48,656 --> 00:15:50,657
Make sure I see it before
it goes out, okay?
273
00:15:50,741 --> 00:15:52,992
- Manny.
- Let's grab a coffee.
274
00:15:53,077 --> 00:15:55,119
Hey, listen. If it's about the
Delail incident, no worries.
275
00:15:55,204 --> 00:15:57,288
I fired him yesterday.
The guy was a loose cannon.
276
00:15:57,373 --> 00:15:59,624
It's not like the Post is an
important paper in this town.
277
00:15:59,708 --> 00:16:01,709
Yeah.
Can we save this for later?
278
00:16:01,794 --> 00:16:04,337
Bear with me. It's important.
279
00:16:04,421 --> 00:16:07,715
All right, Manny.
So, where's the fire?
280
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,759
We hired you because
the partners felt...
281
00:16:09,843 --> 00:16:12,512
we needed someone who had friends
in the Bush administration.
282
00:16:12,596 --> 00:16:14,514
It's not about friends, Manny.
It's about ideas.
283
00:16:14,598 --> 00:16:17,141
And you guys on the Right
used to have ideas.
284
00:16:17,226 --> 00:16:20,269
But now that communism is gone,
all you think about is money.
285
00:16:20,354 --> 00:16:22,480
So, did you invite me out
for an iced vanilla chai...
286
00:16:22,564 --> 00:16:24,524
just to remind me that I'm
a right-wing fascist?
287
00:16:24,608 --> 00:16:26,526
That's kind of beneath
you, isn't it, Manny?
288
00:16:26,610 --> 00:16:29,946
What's beneath me, Jack, are the
clients you drag into my shop.
289
00:16:30,030 --> 00:16:32,490
Those bottom-feeders in the rag
trade in the Mariana Islands.
290
00:16:32,574 --> 00:16:35,743
You know, there is an upside
for the poor Chinese.
291
00:16:35,828 --> 00:16:38,246
They get to send money back to
their families in the mainland.
292
00:16:38,330 --> 00:16:40,957
And look at all the great work we're
doing for the Choctaw, the Chippewa.
293
00:16:41,041 --> 00:16:43,251
That all sounds nice and
philanthropic, Jack,
294
00:16:43,335 --> 00:16:45,545
but you're buddies
with the White House.
295
00:16:45,629 --> 00:16:49,340
Hell, you're a good reason that idiot
cinched the Republican nomination.
296
00:16:49,425 --> 00:16:51,467
That's 'cause we destroyed
McCain in the South.
297
00:16:51,552 --> 00:16:53,302
Bush still owes you.
298
00:16:53,387 --> 00:16:57,765
Why not use that? Aim a little
higher when bringing in clients.
299
00:16:57,850 --> 00:16:59,767
Such as?
300
00:16:59,852 --> 00:17:03,521
Such as a Fortune
500 company or two.
301
00:17:03,605 --> 00:17:05,940
You mean rich, white people.
302
00:17:07,860 --> 00:17:11,237
Listen. I've got a situation
in Florida with a client...
303
00:17:11,321 --> 00:17:13,197
a very important client.
304
00:17:13,282 --> 00:17:16,659
Your background in gaming
might help us stickhandle it.
305
00:17:19,371 --> 00:17:23,124
So, Indians?
306
00:17:23,208 --> 00:17:25,001
No. Greeks.
307
00:17:25,085 --> 00:17:28,337
A guy in Florida
named Gus Boulis.
308
00:17:28,422 --> 00:17:31,090
Bankruptcy's just the
tip of his iceberg.
309
00:17:31,175 --> 00:17:32,759
He needs a buyer fast.
310
00:17:33,677 --> 00:17:35,470
It's a very lucrative casino op.
311
00:17:35,554 --> 00:17:37,847
Anybody who can afford
to get in will get rich.
312
00:17:40,893 --> 00:17:42,810
Anyway, Manny said you'd
have some clients...
313
00:17:42,895 --> 00:17:45,438
who might be interested
under the circumstances.
314
00:17:48,108 --> 00:17:50,109
Yeah. Okay, Art.
I'll look into it.
315
00:18:39,910 --> 00:18:42,620
Have you done your davening yet?
Mm-hmm.
316
00:18:42,704 --> 00:18:45,873
Then come to bed.
Kids are asleep. It's late.
317
00:18:48,043 --> 00:18:49,252
What?
318
00:18:49,336 --> 00:18:52,213
What are you thinking? About us.
319
00:18:53,382 --> 00:18:55,049
Seems like only yesterday...
320
00:18:55,134 --> 00:18:57,635
we were kicking around with
the College Republicans.
321
00:18:57,719 --> 00:19:02,056
Remember that time you brought
Pavarotti to Brandeis?
322
00:19:02,141 --> 00:19:04,058
Nobody thought you
could pull it off.
323
00:19:04,143 --> 00:19:06,227
All them lefties
listening to The Clash.
324
00:19:06,311 --> 00:19:08,312
Hey. I like Joe Strummer.
325
00:19:08,397 --> 00:19:12,567
Mmm. Maybe I should have asked him to do a duet
with Pavarotti. That would have been something.
326
00:19:14,778 --> 00:19:17,738
I still love your
dorkiness, hon.
327
00:19:17,823 --> 00:19:20,616
Always thinking out of the box.
328
00:19:21,785 --> 00:19:23,703
Oh, Adrian...
329
00:19:23,787 --> 00:19:27,957
Nobody ever went the
distance with Creed.
330
00:19:28,041 --> 00:19:31,919
If they ring that bell
and I'm still standin',
331
00:19:32,004 --> 00:19:35,923
then I'll know I weren't just
another bum from the neighborhood.
332
00:19:40,512 --> 00:19:42,972
Come to bed.
333
00:19:44,516 --> 00:19:47,685
So this character Gus Boulis
comes down from Canada,
334
00:19:47,769 --> 00:19:50,688
opens up a chain of
sandwich shops in Miami.
335
00:19:50,772 --> 00:19:52,690
Then he cashes out,
336
00:19:52,774 --> 00:19:55,026
and he goes into the
cruise business,
337
00:19:55,110 --> 00:19:57,028
buys a fleet full of yachts.
338
00:19:57,112 --> 00:20:01,741
So, Boulis turns them into floating
casinos, runs out of nine ports.
339
00:20:01,825 --> 00:20:03,993
Tourists, retirees,
some high rollers.
340
00:20:04,077 --> 00:20:06,454
They call it "The
Cruise to Nowhere."
341
00:20:06,538 --> 00:20:09,582
But there's this Florida attorney general
who's got a hard-on for gamblers,
342
00:20:09,666 --> 00:20:11,918
looking for a technicality
to nail this guy.
343
00:20:12,002 --> 00:20:15,213
Problem is Boulis isn't a U.
S. citizen,
344
00:20:15,297 --> 00:20:19,926
which turns out to be a violation
of the Shipping Act of 1916.
345
00:20:20,010 --> 00:20:23,262
And then this idiot gets sloppy
about how he runs the casinos.
346
00:20:23,347 --> 00:20:25,640
He plays fast and
loose with the bets.
347
00:20:25,724 --> 00:20:27,600
He thinks he's still fooling
around with cold cuts.
348
00:20:27,684 --> 00:20:29,185
Blackjack. House wins.
349
00:20:29,269 --> 00:20:31,229
The customers start to complain.
350
00:20:31,313 --> 00:20:34,774
Pretty soon Boulis is catching heavy
grief with his gambling license.
351
00:20:34,858 --> 00:20:37,401
The gist of it is the feds
are forcing him to sell.
352
00:20:37,486 --> 00:20:39,904
He's got months to divest.
Gives me a window.
353
00:20:39,988 --> 00:20:42,198
Gives you a window?
What, are you serious?
354
00:20:42,282 --> 00:20:44,450
No. We're serious.
355
00:20:44,534 --> 00:20:47,745
145 million, dude?
How we gonna swing that?
356
00:20:47,829 --> 00:20:51,249
We're gonna use our most powerful
resource, Mikey: my imagination.
357
00:20:51,333 --> 00:20:53,960
Well, you better imagine us
as rich as the Chippewa then.
358
00:20:54,044 --> 00:20:57,463
So, what do you think of SunSail?
How do you think we should handle it?
359
00:20:57,547 --> 00:20:59,465
We need a front man.
360
00:20:59,549 --> 00:21:03,594
You know, someone strong enough to run a business,
but not so strong we can't control him.
361
00:21:03,679 --> 00:21:05,763
He needs to have his own money...
362
00:21:05,847 --> 00:21:08,724
so he can invest, keep
him loyal, honest.
363
00:21:09,977 --> 00:21:11,686
You know anybody like that?
364
00:21:17,109 --> 00:21:20,403
Kwikee-Mattress.
The last "S" is for "savings"!
365
00:21:22,864 --> 00:21:25,116
The lowest prices in
greater Bethesda,
366
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,493
plus same-day delivery.
367
00:21:27,577 --> 00:21:31,289
The principles of the
Republican Party...
368
00:21:31,373 --> 00:21:35,376
more closely parallel the moral vision
of the God of Abraham than anyone else.
369
00:21:36,336 --> 00:21:39,630
So, the question: Does God...
370
00:21:39,715 --> 00:21:43,175
want people to be... liquid?
371
00:21:44,970 --> 00:21:48,097
And the answer is yes.
The answer is yes.
372
00:21:48,181 --> 00:21:52,143
Prosperity enables us
to do the right thing...
373
00:21:52,227 --> 00:21:54,687
to be able to help
our fellow man,
374
00:21:54,771 --> 00:21:58,024
to be stewards of civilization.
375
00:21:58,108 --> 00:22:00,526
ln biblical times,
376
00:22:00,610 --> 00:22:03,362
taxes never rose above 20%,
377
00:22:03,447 --> 00:22:06,657
which is a lesson we
could learn today.
378
00:22:06,742 --> 00:22:10,828
Ladies and gentlemen, the Republican
Party lights the way for America...
379
00:22:10,912 --> 00:22:14,123
and, may I say, the
rest of the globe.
380
00:22:16,793 --> 00:22:18,169
Ralph.
381
00:22:18,253 --> 00:22:20,171
Really good stuff.
Thanks for coming.
382
00:22:20,255 --> 00:22:22,882
Inspirational, Jack.
Thanks, Congressman.
383
00:22:22,966 --> 00:22:23,758
Jack. Grover.
384
00:22:23,842 --> 00:22:25,176
We need to talk.
385
00:22:25,260 --> 00:22:26,302
Sure thing, Grover.
386
00:22:29,639 --> 00:22:33,100
"Stewards of civilization"?
Beautiful words, Jack.
387
00:22:33,185 --> 00:22:36,228
Well, I only take my cue from the
most powerful man in Congress.
388
00:22:36,313 --> 00:22:40,107
You remember Reverend Mueller from my
home district in Texas, don't you?
389
00:22:40,192 --> 00:22:42,109
Pleased to see you again, Mr.
Abramoff.
390
00:22:42,194 --> 00:22:44,487
You know, it's refreshing to see
both Jews and Christians...
391
00:22:44,571 --> 00:22:46,864
working together to make
this a better world.
392
00:22:46,948 --> 00:22:48,407
I'm inspired, Reverend.
393
00:22:48,492 --> 00:22:50,993
Karl. Nice to see you, Jack.
394
00:22:51,078 --> 00:22:53,329
The president asked me to
tell you to come by soon.
395
00:22:53,413 --> 00:22:56,123
Needs a little help with his golf swing.
Happy to. Thanks, Karl.
396
00:22:56,208 --> 00:22:57,625
Senator. Yeah.
397
00:22:57,709 --> 00:23:00,836
My, uh, clients have a, uh,
substantial check for your campaign.
398
00:23:00,921 --> 00:23:03,381
Really?
I can't thank you enough, Jack.
399
00:23:03,465 --> 00:23:06,258
You know, we're really
lucky to have you.
400
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,846
Hey, hey, hey.
Slow down, you monkeys.
401
00:23:10,931 --> 00:23:13,808
Thank you. Be careful with that.
See you in the car.
402
00:23:13,892 --> 00:23:16,769
Watch your brother, okay, honey?
What did you think of my talk?
403
00:23:16,853 --> 00:23:21,482
Well, except for the part where God
wants us to be financially liquid.
404
00:23:21,566 --> 00:23:24,068
Sounded weird. Oh.
405
00:23:24,152 --> 00:23:27,113
I meant abundant.
It's... It means power.
406
00:23:27,197 --> 00:23:29,657
Remember Exodus 32,
the golden calf?
407
00:23:29,741 --> 00:23:31,659
The worship of the false idol?
408
00:23:31,743 --> 00:23:35,246
Hold the horses.
She's quoting scripture to me.
409
00:23:35,330 --> 00:23:39,500
Why, Pam Abramoff, when we met,
you were reading Cosmo magazine,
410
00:23:39,584 --> 00:23:42,586
mispronouncing all
them Yiddish words.
411
00:23:42,671 --> 00:23:44,588
Kvetch. Schlemiel.
412
00:23:44,673 --> 00:23:46,799
I think I'm getting
the hang of it.
413
00:23:46,883 --> 00:23:49,802
- Jack, nice speech.
- Hey, Adam. Thanks for showing up.
414
00:23:49,886 --> 00:23:53,848
Wow. Really gone for
the whole Jew package.
415
00:23:53,932 --> 00:23:57,726
Oh, I thought it made me look
more like, uh, Don Corleone.
416
00:23:57,811 --> 00:24:00,855
More like Fiddler on the Roof. Hey.
Don't knock Fiddler on the Roof.
417
00:24:00,939 --> 00:24:02,982
lt was transformational for
me when I was a teenager.
418
00:24:03,066 --> 00:24:04,692
Made you want to be a milkman?
419
00:24:04,776 --> 00:24:06,902
No. Made me want
to be a real Jew.
420
00:24:06,987 --> 00:24:08,654
Hmm.
421
00:24:08,738 --> 00:24:11,282
Good-looking family you have.
422
00:24:11,366 --> 00:24:13,576
A big family you have.
423
00:24:13,660 --> 00:24:16,287
Pam, you remember Adam from
the College Republicans?
424
00:24:16,371 --> 00:24:17,746
Hello.
425
00:24:17,831 --> 00:24:19,874
Well, you've done an excellent
job raising the youngsters.
426
00:24:19,958 --> 00:24:22,626
I'm single again.
Swinging bachelor, I guess.
427
00:24:23,295 --> 00:24:24,879
Good luck with that.
428
00:24:24,963 --> 00:24:26,547
Listen. We need to talk.
429
00:24:26,631 --> 00:24:28,883
Can you swing by my house on Sunday?
We'll have dinner.
430
00:24:28,967 --> 00:24:31,343
You mean like a kind of date?
431
00:24:33,096 --> 00:24:36,265
What business could you possibly
have with a man like that?
432
00:24:36,349 --> 00:24:38,476
Honey, he's got a law degree
from Brooklyn College.
433
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,644
He looks like a defendant
on Judge Judy.
434
00:24:40,729 --> 00:24:43,022
Honey.
435
00:24:43,899 --> 00:24:46,400
Have a little compassion.
436
00:24:46,485 --> 00:24:48,819
He's a partner in a
casino in Saint Martin.
437
00:24:48,904 --> 00:24:51,989
He's a respectable guy who knows a lot.
He could be a very useful partner.
438
00:24:52,073 --> 00:24:54,909
Useful for what?
439
00:24:54,993 --> 00:24:59,288
ln five years, our family will
be completely legitimate.
440
00:24:59,372 --> 00:25:02,708
Would you please stop it with that, quoting
movies all the time. It's irritating.
441
00:25:02,792 --> 00:25:05,169
Oh, come on, honey.
You know I love the movies.
442
00:25:05,253 --> 00:25:07,171
And I am a Hollywood producer.
443
00:25:09,883 --> 00:25:13,177
You produced two Dolph
Lundgren movies, okay?
444
00:25:13,261 --> 00:25:15,513
You work in Washington now.
445
00:25:15,597 --> 00:25:18,724
Babe, Washington is
Hollywood with ugly faces.
446
00:25:18,808 --> 00:25:20,726
I'm serious, Jack.
447
00:25:20,810 --> 00:25:23,479
He makes me nervous.
448
00:25:23,563 --> 00:25:28,442
And another thing. I mean, how is that
we're late with the mortgage payment?
449
00:25:29,945 --> 00:25:31,987
We're okay, aren't we?
450
00:25:32,072 --> 00:25:35,199
Oh, yeah. No. This just must
be some accounting thing.
451
00:25:35,283 --> 00:25:37,284
I'll look into it
in the morning.
452
00:25:39,120 --> 00:25:41,664
Don't worry.
Put this on my desk.
453
00:25:44,292 --> 00:25:46,418
I'm watching you walk away.
454
00:25:47,837 --> 00:25:49,338
Still watching you walk away.
455
00:25:49,422 --> 00:25:51,298
Walk away some more.
456
00:26:00,267 --> 00:26:01,934
Everybody wins.
457
00:26:04,854 --> 00:26:09,733
As we all know, the gaming industry
has blown up across America.
458
00:26:09,818 --> 00:26:12,069
This phenomenon has
given great fortune,
459
00:26:12,153 --> 00:26:15,489
not only to our tribe... to
our people in general.
460
00:26:15,574 --> 00:26:18,117
But now we're at risk
of losing everything...
461
00:26:18,201 --> 00:26:20,452
to the competition of
our neighboring tribes.
462
00:26:20,537 --> 00:26:24,790
The point is we need help in
Washington, and we need help now.
463
00:26:24,874 --> 00:26:27,042
And as I said in my
written statement,
464
00:26:27,127 --> 00:26:29,211
Mr. Abramoff here has
my full support...
465
00:26:29,296 --> 00:26:33,841
in recommending that he have only the
best interests of our casinos at heart.
466
00:26:38,597 --> 00:26:42,933
Mr. Abramoff, I've, uh,
read your proposal.
467
00:26:43,018 --> 00:26:47,479
I see you want one million dollars
just as a retainer to start.
468
00:26:47,564 --> 00:26:51,442
Well, you're asking for the best, Mr. Sprague.
We are the best. We can get it done.
469
00:26:51,526 --> 00:26:54,069
You want to kick some ass
on the Hill, we can do it.
470
00:26:55,447 --> 00:26:57,156
Let's kick some ass.
471
00:27:00,660 --> 00:27:03,954
That was Dolph Lundgren, not
Schwarzenegger, in case you were confused.
472
00:27:04,039 --> 00:27:07,750
All right. Look. Here's my advice.
It's free today.
473
00:27:07,834 --> 00:27:11,086
You fellas hire Michael Scanlon and
Capitol Strategies and Ralph Reed here,
474
00:27:11,171 --> 00:27:12,963
who, as some of you may know,
475
00:27:13,048 --> 00:27:16,342
at one time was the very famous right
hand of the Reverend Pat Robertson.
476
00:27:16,426 --> 00:27:19,887
He can organize some high-wattage
Christian opposition...
477
00:27:19,971 --> 00:27:21,889
to this proposed casino
by the Jena tribe...
478
00:27:21,973 --> 00:27:25,476
and do to them what we did to
McCain in 2000... wipe 'em out.
479
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:30,439
You want $30 million in
fees over three years.
480
00:27:30,523 --> 00:27:32,900
I could be president
myself for that.
481
00:27:37,072 --> 00:27:39,073
It's just too much money.
482
00:27:39,157 --> 00:27:42,242
The money's worth it.
Jack will lobby for us in Washington.
483
00:27:42,327 --> 00:27:45,537
He can help make us one of the most
powerful tribes in the region.
484
00:27:45,622 --> 00:27:47,706
Our people need
more health care.
485
00:27:47,791 --> 00:27:50,959
We need more education,
not influence.
486
00:27:51,044 --> 00:27:53,921
Mr. Sprague, you may not think you
need influence in Washington,
487
00:27:54,005 --> 00:27:57,424
but I'm telling you, to have direct
access to members of Congress...
488
00:27:57,509 --> 00:28:00,886
is gonna influence how
they vote on the very...
489
00:28:01,888 --> 00:28:03,555
Oh. Speak of the devil.
490
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,808
It's the congressional
offices calling.
491
00:28:05,892 --> 00:28:07,810
It's, uh, House majority
leader Tom DeLay.
492
00:28:07,894 --> 00:28:10,104
Excuse me for a
moment, everyone.
493
00:28:10,188 --> 00:28:13,857
Tom, how's it going?
Jack, am I on time?
494
00:28:13,942 --> 00:28:17,361
Everything is terrific here.
In fact, I'm with the Chippewa now.
495
00:28:17,445 --> 00:28:19,905
Remind me not to order the
tuna from the cafeteria again.
496
00:28:19,989 --> 00:28:23,992
Yes. I will, uh, remind them of
what they're up against, sir.
497
00:28:25,537 --> 00:28:28,580
Yeah. And absolutely that they
can count on your full support.
498
00:28:28,665 --> 00:28:31,208
Great, Jack. I'll see you.
499
00:28:32,961 --> 00:28:36,338
Great, Tom. Say hi to the president for me.
I'll call you when I get back.
500
00:28:37,716 --> 00:28:39,925
I'm not bragging...
501
00:28:40,009 --> 00:28:42,636
when I tell you that we can have
effective and direct access...
502
00:28:42,721 --> 00:28:45,472
to members of Congress on behalf
of Screaming Eagle Resort.
503
00:28:46,975 --> 00:28:50,269
Otherwise, this beautiful
casino that you have here...
504
00:28:50,353 --> 00:28:52,938
is gonna shut down tight
and very quickly.
505
00:28:54,274 --> 00:28:56,191
ln the current climate,
506
00:28:56,276 --> 00:28:58,736
we are barely breaking even now.
507
00:28:58,820 --> 00:29:01,155
I say the council votes no.
508
00:29:02,031 --> 00:29:03,782
Sorry, Mr. Abramoff.
509
00:29:06,870 --> 00:29:09,872
I'm going to have to agree.
510
00:29:09,956 --> 00:29:12,708
The council votes at 3:00 today, Mr.
Abramoff.
511
00:29:12,792 --> 00:29:14,752
But, uh,
512
00:29:14,836 --> 00:29:16,795
thanks for coming all this way.
513
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,470
He's seriously messing with
the chi we had flowing.
514
00:29:24,554 --> 00:29:26,972
So Sprague is a subchief
on the council?
515
00:29:27,056 --> 00:29:30,350
It's an elected position.
Poncho has zero juice. Okay?
516
00:29:30,435 --> 00:29:32,478
What the hell is a
ceremonial chief anyway?
517
00:29:32,562 --> 00:29:35,272
Why didn't we know this before we wasted
a hundred grand taking him golfing?
518
00:29:35,356 --> 00:29:39,359
How the hell was I supposed to know
Poncho was the fucking queen of England?
519
00:29:42,197 --> 00:29:44,031
Well, Sprague's gotta go.
520
00:29:44,115 --> 00:29:46,283
When's the next
council election?
521
00:29:46,367 --> 00:29:48,827
You're not talking about messing
with the council election, are you?
522
00:29:48,912 --> 00:29:52,331
Because, you know, you're gonna be in
contravention of the Indian Act of 1968, mister.
523
00:29:52,415 --> 00:29:54,958
Well, let me tell you something.
They're fucking with our bread and butter, Mikey.
524
00:29:55,043 --> 00:29:58,670
I was gonna use that money as the down payment
on the SunSail opportunity with the Greek.
525
00:29:58,755 --> 00:30:01,882
Tell me about it. I just put a huge down
payment on this new house I'm buying.
526
00:30:01,966 --> 00:30:04,635
- What?
- The Du Pont mansion in Rehoboth Beach.
527
00:30:04,719 --> 00:30:06,428
I told you about it.
It's badass.
528
00:30:06,513 --> 00:30:09,473
And I've got a lease on a suite at the
Ritz-Carlton with this killer pool table.
529
00:30:09,557 --> 00:30:11,433
My overhead is insane right now.
530
00:30:11,518 --> 00:30:15,979
You haven't paid off your student loans.
What do you need with a mansion and a pool table?
531
00:30:16,064 --> 00:30:17,981
What? You're buying stuff.
532
00:30:18,066 --> 00:30:19,525
Worthwhile stuff.
533
00:30:19,609 --> 00:30:23,195
All right. Look. Just have Grover
keep Poncho entertained...
534
00:30:23,279 --> 00:30:26,907
and let him tell us mega-fast
when the next election is.
535
00:30:26,991 --> 00:30:30,577
Hey. I was in Florida 2000, dude.
Hanging chads, state troopers.
536
00:30:30,662 --> 00:30:32,913
This is gonna be a cakewalk.
All right?
537
00:30:32,997 --> 00:30:35,249
Tiptoe through the tulips.
538
00:30:37,126 --> 00:30:38,627
Hi there.
539
00:30:42,173 --> 00:30:43,924
Thank you.
540
00:30:48,471 --> 00:30:52,266
Be careful there, Mikey. She probably still
eats her Girl Scout cookies with milk.
541
00:31:00,275 --> 00:31:01,942
Thank you.
542
00:31:03,945 --> 00:31:05,863
Hey, baby doll.
543
00:31:05,947 --> 00:31:07,447
Hi. Whoo!
544
00:31:08,533 --> 00:31:10,450
Who the hell was that girl?
545
00:31:10,535 --> 00:31:12,661
You are so cute.
546
00:31:12,745 --> 00:31:16,039
She's an employee.
You gotta be nice to the help.
547
00:31:28,803 --> 00:31:31,430
For a Jew, I bet you get a
lot of cool Christmas cards.
548
00:31:31,514 --> 00:31:33,557
Oh, we see our share
of Nativity scenes.
549
00:31:33,641 --> 00:31:35,726
Hey. Look at you. Macho man.
550
00:31:35,810 --> 00:31:38,186
Oh, you didn't know I was a
guard at Beverly Hills High?
551
00:31:38,271 --> 00:31:41,189
Once knocked a kid ice-cold out from Inglewood.
Made the papers.
552
00:31:41,274 --> 00:31:44,860
I bet a lot of guys from Beverly
Hills went to the NFL, huh?
553
00:31:44,944 --> 00:31:47,988
Know what I majored in
in high school? Pool?
554
00:31:48,072 --> 00:31:50,115
No. Fuckin'.
555
00:31:50,199 --> 00:31:52,576
Really? How does it feel to
get a "C" in that class?
556
00:31:54,537 --> 00:31:58,457
All right. So you've gone from pool to selling mattresses?
That's quite an upgrade, Adam.
557
00:31:58,541 --> 00:32:00,834
I'm a very successful
mattress businessman.
558
00:32:00,919 --> 00:32:03,587
Really? 'Cause I hear
Kwikee-Mattress is in Chapter 11.
559
00:32:03,671 --> 00:32:07,966
Hey. I sold my franchise for
over seven figures and got out.
560
00:32:08,051 --> 00:32:11,428
Excellent. Because I've got a
new fantastic offer for you.
561
00:32:11,512 --> 00:32:13,221
Like what?
562
00:32:13,306 --> 00:32:15,432
SunSail Casinos.
563
00:32:16,434 --> 00:32:18,602
Offshore gambling?
564
00:32:18,686 --> 00:32:21,521
You know who you're dealing with?
Greenpeace?
565
00:32:24,943 --> 00:32:26,652
Trust me. I know.
566
00:32:26,736 --> 00:32:29,821
Adam, think of the fund-raising
possibilities, all right?
567
00:32:29,906 --> 00:32:32,866
It's like Vegas on crack.
The boats go out beyond the 12-mile limit.
568
00:32:32,951 --> 00:32:34,868
It's an all-cash business.
569
00:32:34,953 --> 00:32:37,329
Use your imagination, Adam.
'Cause I got plans.
570
00:32:37,413 --> 00:32:39,331
Yeah. Plans like Bugsy Malone.
571
00:32:39,415 --> 00:32:42,292
No. Plans like to open up my
own private Hebrew school.
572
00:32:42,377 --> 00:32:45,545
Public education sucks. You have no idea
what my kids have to deal with these days.
573
00:32:45,630 --> 00:32:47,673
Your own school? Yeah.
574
00:32:47,757 --> 00:32:49,800
Plus there's my foundation.
All the charity work I'm doing.
575
00:32:49,884 --> 00:32:53,220
Look. I'm trying to do important
stuff that matters for people.
576
00:32:54,555 --> 00:32:56,974
I...
577
00:32:57,058 --> 00:32:58,976
I...I don't know, Jack.
578
00:32:59,060 --> 00:33:01,979
I'm starting to see Charlie Manson as
my roommate for the next 10 years.
579
00:33:02,063 --> 00:33:05,440
This isn't a bunch of native people.
You're dealing with sharks here.
580
00:33:05,525 --> 00:33:07,901
I'm gonna say no.
581
00:33:07,986 --> 00:33:10,278
But thanks for the $65 steak.
It's delicious.
582
00:33:10,363 --> 00:33:13,657
Adam, just go down to Florida with my
business partner, Michael Scanlon,
583
00:33:13,741 --> 00:33:16,493
and you guys talk to
this Gus Boulis fellow.
584
00:33:16,577 --> 00:33:19,454
You're always asking me to give you something.
"Give me something. Give me something."
585
00:33:19,539 --> 00:33:21,289
Well, now I'm giving you
something, you schmuck.
586
00:33:21,374 --> 00:33:24,793
I was thinking something maybe a
little less hazardous to my person.
587
00:33:24,877 --> 00:33:27,504
I dealt with commies in Nicaragua,
generals in Pakistan.
588
00:33:27,588 --> 00:33:29,756
I've even dealt with
fucking Imelda Marcos.
589
00:33:29,841 --> 00:33:32,134
Why should I be afraid of a
Greek who makes sandwiches?
590
00:33:34,053 --> 00:33:35,762
What's Imelda like?
591
00:33:38,016 --> 00:33:40,225
She likes to play the piano
and sing show tunes.
592
00:33:40,309 --> 00:33:41,643
Really?
593
00:33:41,728 --> 00:33:44,229
Yeah. She's got a
pretty decent voice.
594
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,423
Has all the subtlety
of a Thai whorehouse.
595
00:34:11,507 --> 00:34:13,633
Not that you would know what a
Thai whorehouse looks like, right?
596
00:34:15,803 --> 00:34:18,638
Looks like Boulis is
into family values.
597
00:34:18,723 --> 00:34:21,099
Looks like he hired
his whole family.
598
00:34:21,184 --> 00:34:24,478
Hey, guys.
I'm Chris, Gus's nephew.
599
00:34:24,562 --> 00:34:26,480
Gus is running a little late.
600
00:34:26,564 --> 00:34:29,066
You guys hungry?
You want something to drink?
601
00:34:29,150 --> 00:34:33,153
No, we're fine. I'll have a shot
of Cuervo and two Heinekens.
602
00:34:46,834 --> 00:34:50,295
I told Jack to forget about this place.
It's a fucking reptile cage.
603
00:34:50,379 --> 00:34:53,048
Boulis is doing mega
business here, dude.
604
00:34:56,344 --> 00:35:00,097
This blows. Whatever.
He's just trying to make a statement.
605
00:35:00,181 --> 00:35:02,849
This is how he operates?
We've been waiting an hour.
606
00:35:02,934 --> 00:35:05,727
I don't like it. I'm going back to Miami.
This is nuts. Whoa, whoa.
607
00:35:05,812 --> 00:35:07,938
Hang on. Adam, sit down.
608
00:35:08,022 --> 00:35:10,440
Sit down, okay?
Konstantinos Boulis.
609
00:35:10,525 --> 00:35:13,151
- Sorry to keep you.
- Hey. Mike Scanlon. Pleasure to meet you.
610
00:35:13,236 --> 00:35:14,736
Adam Kidan.
611
00:35:14,821 --> 00:35:18,657
Sorry Jack couldn't be here.
He sends his regards.
612
00:35:20,409 --> 00:35:22,953
You've done well for yourself, Gus.
Nice fleet of boats like this,
613
00:35:23,037 --> 00:35:24,704
dude, you gotta
be a content man.
614
00:35:24,789 --> 00:35:27,666
Yeah. Except for the
fuckin' attorney general.
615
00:35:27,750 --> 00:35:30,502
Because of him, I need to keep
what's left of my sanity.
616
00:35:32,171 --> 00:35:34,131
So, let's cut the crap.
617
00:35:35,049 --> 00:35:36,967
You and Jack plan
to pay my price?
618
00:35:37,051 --> 00:35:38,969
All right. Look.
619
00:35:39,053 --> 00:35:40,846
We can give you 20
cents on the dollar.
620
00:35:40,930 --> 00:35:43,306
That's the best we
can offer, dude.
621
00:35:43,391 --> 00:35:46,017
There's no negotiation.
You pay my price. That's it.
622
00:35:46,102 --> 00:35:50,063
Oh, yes. I keep a 10% interest.
I run the business.
623
00:35:51,107 --> 00:35:52,858
And don't call me "dude."
624
00:35:56,654 --> 00:35:59,197
You talkin' to me? Ah?
625
00:35:59,282 --> 00:36:01,074
Are you talkin' to me?
626
00:36:01,159 --> 00:36:03,410
Ah, it's your move. What the fu...
627
00:36:03,494 --> 00:36:05,996
You make the move. Huh?
628
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:09,416
Sorry. Jack and his boys
watch too many movies.
629
00:36:09,500 --> 00:36:12,627
Movies? I didn't invite you
here to listen to comedians.
630
00:36:12,712 --> 00:36:14,921
- No, no. No. I was-
- What? You joke with me? Movies?
631
00:36:15,006 --> 00:36:16,464
Fairy tales? Get out!
Whoa, whoa.
632
00:36:16,549 --> 00:36:17,757
Fellas. Hey, hey.
You come back...
633
00:36:17,842 --> 00:36:19,551
when you can show my uncle
some respect, okay?
634
00:36:19,635 --> 00:36:21,344
No. I was just trying
to lighten the mood.
635
00:36:21,429 --> 00:36:23,180
Christos.
636
00:36:24,515 --> 00:36:27,350
Come on. Who doesn't
like impressions, right?
637
00:36:28,811 --> 00:36:30,896
What the fuck?
638
00:36:33,649 --> 00:36:36,193
Well, that went well.
639
00:36:36,277 --> 00:36:39,696
Fuckin' idiot.
Who doesn't negotiate?
640
00:36:39,780 --> 00:36:41,865
I know. I'm telling you.
He's a hard-ass, dude.
641
00:36:41,949 --> 00:36:45,702
You watch me put some hot sauce
in this fucker's tabbouleh.
642
00:36:45,786 --> 00:36:49,456
He's not gonna scare easy. I don't know how
the hell you're gonna get him to negotiate.
643
00:36:49,540 --> 00:36:52,250
Yeah. Well, you know what?
Try the Congress of the United States.
644
00:36:52,335 --> 00:36:54,377
Boulis will turn around, Mikey.
Trust me.
645
00:36:54,462 --> 00:36:56,880
- Hang on. Bob?
- Yeah, Jack.
646
00:36:56,964 --> 00:36:59,883
- Listen. I need a favor for a client.
- Sure. Name it.
647
00:36:59,967 --> 00:37:03,053
- Which tribe are we talking about?
- No. Not Indians. Greeks.
648
00:37:03,137 --> 00:37:05,138
Casino gambling
in South Florida.
649
00:37:05,223 --> 00:37:08,475
I represent the 18th
District of Ohio, Jack.
650
00:37:08,559 --> 00:37:11,394
It's a bit of a hot potato.
Can you deal me a pass on this one?
651
00:37:11,479 --> 00:37:15,065
After the money I've funneled to you this
year, Bob, no, I don't think you get a pass.
652
00:37:15,149 --> 00:37:18,610
All right? I need your help. I need it now.
Mike will send you the details.
653
00:37:18,694 --> 00:37:20,445
Thanks.
654
00:37:23,449 --> 00:37:24,991
So, here's the casino file.
655
00:37:25,076 --> 00:37:27,744
Jack expects to see you on
C-SPAN no later than Thursday.
656
00:37:27,828 --> 00:37:29,746
Tell him he's pushing it.
657
00:37:29,830 --> 00:37:32,123
Bob, he knows how busy you are
with the upcoming fall elections.
658
00:37:32,208 --> 00:37:33,959
ln fact, if I'm not mistaken,
659
00:37:34,043 --> 00:37:37,003
he's organizing a huge fund-raiser
for you next Tuesday.
660
00:37:38,547 --> 00:37:40,507
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
661
00:37:40,591 --> 00:37:43,385
I am an ardent supporter
of consumer rights.
662
00:37:43,469 --> 00:37:45,387
At the heart of my
comments today...
663
00:37:45,471 --> 00:37:48,139
is how certain gaming companies
treat their patrons.
664
00:37:48,224 --> 00:37:51,726
There are a few bad apples out there
who don't play by the rules...
665
00:37:51,811 --> 00:37:55,689
and who must be, uh,
weeded... weeded out.
666
00:37:55,773 --> 00:37:59,317
One such example is the
case of SunSail Casinos...
667
00:37:59,402 --> 00:38:01,111
and its proprietor, Gus Boulis.
668
00:38:01,195 --> 00:38:02,988
Yeah! Whoo! Yeah!
669
00:38:03,072 --> 00:38:05,073
You is the man. You is the man!
670
00:38:06,867 --> 00:38:08,576
What's all the
noise about, kids?
671
00:38:08,661 --> 00:38:12,080
Oh, hey, Manny. We're just working
hard finding a buyer for your client.
672
00:38:12,164 --> 00:38:14,332
Hey. Good. Glad to hear it.
Any live ones?
673
00:38:14,417 --> 00:38:16,334
Oh, yeah.
We're all over it, Manny.
674
00:38:16,419 --> 00:38:18,795
No shady ones from
the Marianas, okay?
675
00:38:18,879 --> 00:38:21,047
Absolutely.
676
00:38:22,091 --> 00:38:24,718
I serve this country
and no other.
677
00:38:31,726 --> 00:38:35,145
Listen. We need to get everything
we can on this Boulis, all right?
678
00:38:35,229 --> 00:38:37,272
I want you to call our
friends at Fox News...
679
00:38:37,356 --> 00:38:39,774
- and have DeLay hammer Jeb Bush down in Florida.
- Okay.
680
00:38:39,859 --> 00:38:41,860
No. Never mind.
I'll call DeLay myself.
681
00:38:41,944 --> 00:38:44,279
He wants me to hook him up with
the Harvard College Republicans.
682
00:38:44,363 --> 00:38:47,324
Thinks I can make him look good in
front of all those Ivy League monkeys.
683
00:38:47,408 --> 00:38:49,034
Yeah. Good luck with that.
You know what?
684
00:38:49,118 --> 00:38:51,328
He was a pest exterminator
in Laredo, Texas, dude.
685
00:38:51,412 --> 00:38:53,330
That's gonna be a huge
challenge in Cambridge.
686
00:38:53,414 --> 00:38:56,583
Hey, man. He clawed his way up to majority leader.
Now he's got his eyes on the White House.
687
00:38:56,667 --> 00:38:59,294
DeLay? Are we talking
about the same guy here?
688
00:38:59,378 --> 00:39:03,465
He was an alcoholic with famous hot
tub parties before he met God.
689
00:39:07,178 --> 00:39:09,429
What the hell, dude?
690
00:39:09,513 --> 00:39:12,015
What the hell was that?
691
00:39:12,099 --> 00:39:15,018
Never before has an individual...
692
00:39:15,102 --> 00:39:17,062
who's been steadfast
to our principles...
693
00:39:17,146 --> 00:39:20,523
risen as high as House
majority leader Tom DeLay.
694
00:39:20,608 --> 00:39:22,567
Tom DeLay is the most effective...
695
00:39:22,651 --> 00:39:25,070
I would say he was the most
effective whip in the House,
696
00:39:25,154 --> 00:39:27,155
and I would say he's the most
effective majority leader,
697
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:31,326
and thank God Tom DeLay is the majority
leader in the House of Representatives.
698
00:39:36,999 --> 00:39:39,542
And I would just like to
add one thing to that,
699
00:39:39,627 --> 00:39:42,879
because I'm sure we all want
to hear from Mr. DeLay.
700
00:39:42,963 --> 00:39:47,717
But Tom DeLay is who all of us
hope to be when we grow up.
701
00:39:47,802 --> 00:39:49,260
Tom.
702
00:39:53,808 --> 00:39:57,143
Thanks, Jack.
You truly are my dearest friend.
703
00:40:02,316 --> 00:40:05,402
Senator Jarvis, I have a check for
you from the Choctaw Indians.
704
00:40:05,486 --> 00:40:07,278
Oh.
Press my "easy button," Jack.
705
00:40:07,363 --> 00:40:09,280
And they want to wish you the
best with your campaign.
706
00:40:09,365 --> 00:40:11,658
I want to, uh, congratulate
and thank each of you...
707
00:40:11,742 --> 00:40:15,078
for getting involved in politics
through Young Republicans.
708
00:40:15,162 --> 00:40:17,914
What you're doing is commendable
and important because,
709
00:40:17,998 --> 00:40:21,292
as goes politics, so
goes our country.
710
00:40:21,377 --> 00:40:24,587
Grover. And a weak country
cannot provide the world...
711
00:40:24,672 --> 00:40:26,589
Glad you're on the team.
712
00:40:27,883 --> 00:40:31,553
Jack, you know how I
feel about freebies.
713
00:40:31,637 --> 00:40:35,557
Poncho is the third Indian you've
made me babysit this month.
714
00:40:35,641 --> 00:40:38,643
There is only so much congressmen
at Americans for Tax Reform...
715
00:40:38,727 --> 00:40:42,063
want to be educated about the
benefits of Indian gaming.
716
00:40:42,690 --> 00:40:44,232
Grover.
717
00:40:46,193 --> 00:40:49,279
Well, Grover, how about we fatten
Poncho's donation to A.T.R.,
718
00:40:49,363 --> 00:40:51,281
help you out with your
operational costs?
719
00:40:51,365 --> 00:40:55,118
That'd be a start.
I have a hole in my budget of 75K.
720
00:40:55,202 --> 00:40:57,370
Ouch. All right.
I'll look into it, champ.
721
00:40:57,455 --> 00:40:59,747
Meanwhile, where the
fuck is your evil elf?
722
00:40:59,832 --> 00:41:03,918
Mikey boy? He was supposed to take
Poncho off my hands three hours ago.
723
00:41:11,051 --> 00:41:14,137
You guys want to see
something crazy? Bam!
724
00:41:14,221 --> 00:41:17,015
A million smackeroos, baby.
Give me five.
725
00:41:17,099 --> 00:41:20,101
How sexy am I to you
right now, huh?
726
00:41:20,186 --> 00:41:21,811
Very sexy. Right?
727
00:41:21,896 --> 00:41:24,898
- Sure you're not a drug dealer or something, baby?
- Drug dealer, my ass.
728
00:41:24,982 --> 00:41:26,691
Oh. Your lackey's defending you.
729
00:41:26,775 --> 00:41:29,444
Jack and I are doing
God's work, baby.
730
00:41:29,528 --> 00:41:31,488
And you don't think the
Indian Affairs Committee...
731
00:41:31,572 --> 00:41:34,032
is gonna take issue with all the
high fees you've been charging?
732
00:41:34,116 --> 00:41:36,618
Since when have you become
an expert on Indian affairs?
733
00:41:36,702 --> 00:41:39,162
You're not the only one who knows a thing
or two about Washington, you know.
734
00:41:39,246 --> 00:41:42,749
Those bitches are doing the exact same
thing we are... trying to open casinos.
735
00:41:42,833 --> 00:41:44,751
They're just jealous...
736
00:41:44,835 --> 00:41:47,295
'cause they don't
make as much as you.
737
00:41:47,379 --> 00:41:49,088
You are so right.
738
00:41:55,679 --> 00:41:58,097
Here it is, baby.
739
00:41:58,182 --> 00:42:00,725
Shangri-la, Kubla Khan, Xanadu.
740
00:42:07,191 --> 00:42:09,442
Ooh. Hey. Sorry, babe.
741
00:42:10,819 --> 00:42:13,154
Ah? Oh, my God.
742
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,658
What? You don't like?
This is high-end?
743
00:42:16,742 --> 00:42:18,660
This is like something you'd
find in Southampton, right?
744
00:42:18,744 --> 00:42:20,912
Southampton.
Have you ever been to Southampton?
745
00:42:20,996 --> 00:42:22,914
This is great for
Delaware, dude.
746
00:42:22,998 --> 00:42:25,375
Right? A little bit of
paint here and there.
747
00:42:25,459 --> 00:42:27,460
Come on.
Mike, have you lost your mind?
748
00:42:27,545 --> 00:42:29,963
It's a what?
749
00:42:30,047 --> 00:42:32,715
A Zamboni.
750
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,052
A Zamboni machine for smoothing
out the surface of the ice.
751
00:42:36,136 --> 00:42:37,679
What ice?
752
00:42:37,763 --> 00:42:40,265
The ice for the hockey rink.
A hockey rink?
753
00:42:40,349 --> 00:42:42,392
I don't see a hockey rink.
Well, no. Not here.
754
00:42:42,476 --> 00:42:44,561
It's being built somewhere else.
Honey.
755
00:42:44,645 --> 00:42:46,604
Look. These are all
temporary facilities.
756
00:42:46,689 --> 00:42:50,066
It's all part of the new Eshkol
Academy and Sports Center...
757
00:42:50,150 --> 00:42:52,318
that I'm building for all
these kids... for our kids.
758
00:42:52,403 --> 00:42:54,320
You were serious about
building a school?
759
00:42:54,405 --> 00:42:57,782
Well, of course. You know how I feel about
the education that these kids are getting.
760
00:42:57,866 --> 00:42:59,367
A hockey rink?
761
00:42:59,451 --> 00:43:00,910
Baby, I thought you'd be happy.
762
00:43:00,995 --> 00:43:03,871
I just bought us the biggest
house in the whole damn state.
763
00:43:03,956 --> 00:43:05,707
It's astonishing, dude. Right?
764
00:43:05,791 --> 00:43:07,584
For the Addams Family maybe.
765
00:43:09,086 --> 00:43:11,421
4.5 million?
766
00:43:11,505 --> 00:43:14,549
I can't even believe that you
would pay money for this...
767
00:43:14,633 --> 00:43:16,551
this dump.
768
00:43:16,635 --> 00:43:19,887
Are you kidding me? This place could be
like the Playboy Mansion or something, huh?
769
00:43:19,972 --> 00:43:22,056
It's all part of the
bigger picture, Pam.
770
00:43:22,141 --> 00:43:25,935
Philanthropy. The academy,
the library, my foundation.
771
00:43:26,020 --> 00:43:29,439
The restaurants, the boats, the
hotel... it's all gonna pay for it.
772
00:43:29,523 --> 00:43:31,357
Hotel? Yeah.
I'm looking at a property right now.
773
00:43:31,442 --> 00:43:33,401
The Chitimachas want
to invest with me.
774
00:43:33,485 --> 00:43:36,029
Jack, what are you doing?
775
00:43:36,113 --> 00:43:38,573
Is this why we aren't keeping
up with our house payments?
776
00:43:38,657 --> 00:43:41,784
Honey, think what you want about me, but
this is for our kids and their kids.
777
00:43:41,869 --> 00:43:45,079
They're our priorities here.
Is this even aboveboard?
778
00:43:45,164 --> 00:43:48,333
Joseph Kennedy built up his
entire business empire...
779
00:43:48,417 --> 00:43:50,001
with the help of
the Chicago mob.
780
00:43:50,085 --> 00:43:51,961
Jack, honey, I love you,
781
00:43:52,046 --> 00:43:55,340
and don't take this the wrong way,
but you are completely insane.
782
00:43:58,177 --> 00:44:01,638
Dude, we're gonna rip this crap
out, throw in a sound system.
783
00:44:01,722 --> 00:44:03,890
They will hear us
for miles, right?
784
00:44:03,974 --> 00:44:06,184
A sound system?
785
00:44:06,268 --> 00:44:08,645
What about furniture?
Knock yourself out, baby.
786
00:44:08,729 --> 00:44:10,396
Scanlon.
787
00:44:10,481 --> 00:44:11,981
Mike Scanlon? Yo.
788
00:44:12,066 --> 00:44:14,317
Susan Schmidt with
the Washington Post.
789
00:44:19,782 --> 00:44:21,991
Hi.
What can I do for you, Susan?
790
00:44:22,076 --> 00:44:26,245
Well, I wanted to see if you would
comment on that new minimum wage bill...
791
00:44:26,330 --> 00:44:30,833
the Senate's about to pass with respect to
your textile clients in the Northern Marianas.
792
00:44:30,918 --> 00:44:34,796
Oh. You know, I... I... I don't believe
they have all the votes on that, so...
793
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:37,298
I don't think that bill's
gonna make it, actually.
794
00:44:37,383 --> 00:44:40,635
Uh, I'm also curious about the
work Preston Gates does...
795
00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,429
on behalf of Native Americans.
796
00:44:43,514 --> 00:44:46,599
We're thinking of doing a
report on Indian gaming.
797
00:44:46,684 --> 00:44:49,102
Oh, yeah?
Well, good luck with that.
798
00:44:49,186 --> 00:44:51,479
That should bore your
readers to death.
799
00:44:52,564 --> 00:44:53,773
Really?
800
00:44:55,859 --> 00:44:57,777
Looks like your Mariana
Islands are fucked.
801
00:44:57,861 --> 00:45:01,197
Senate passed the bill.
Minimum wage is on the way.
802
00:45:01,281 --> 00:45:02,990
I'm fucked.
803
00:45:03,075 --> 00:45:05,493
Jack said he'd can me if we didn't
reach the end zone on this one.
804
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:11,249
Well, I'd better man
up, go break the news.
805
00:45:11,333 --> 00:45:13,626
Try to do that again.
806
00:45:17,715 --> 00:45:19,215
Whoo! Whoo!
807
00:45:19,299 --> 00:45:21,217
Nice.
808
00:45:21,301 --> 00:45:23,594
What's wrong, Ring Ding?
Somebody die?
809
00:45:23,679 --> 00:45:25,179
You guys didn't watch.
810
00:45:25,264 --> 00:45:27,181
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
811
00:45:29,393 --> 00:45:31,602
The Senate passed the bill.
The Marianas are fucked.
812
00:45:31,687 --> 00:45:34,147
So, why the long face?
This is great.
813
00:45:34,231 --> 00:45:36,482
Okay. Ye...
814
00:45:36,567 --> 00:45:39,402
Look. Let me... Let me run it down for you, boy.
This is how it works:
815
00:45:39,486 --> 00:45:41,362
Do you have any idea
how much more money...
816
00:45:41,447 --> 00:45:43,948
our clients are gonna have to pay us
to get that bill killed in the House?
817
00:45:44,032 --> 00:45:47,160
ln fact, I'm gonna call them right now,
tell them they gotta double their retainer.
818
00:45:47,244 --> 00:45:48,494
Enid.
819
00:45:48,579 --> 00:45:52,039
Sorry to interrupt you
all so hard at work.
820
00:45:52,124 --> 00:45:54,167
Jack, I need you to see
me for dinner tonight.
821
00:45:54,251 --> 00:45:55,793
Okay.
822
00:46:06,847 --> 00:46:09,599
Here's your menus, gentlemen.
Enjoy your dinner.
823
00:46:10,684 --> 00:46:12,977
The sashimi toro
is excellent here.
824
00:46:13,061 --> 00:46:16,105
No kidding. Not as good as it's gonna
be at my new restaurant though.
825
00:46:16,190 --> 00:46:18,858
I just hired a
top-dollar Tokyo chef.
826
00:46:18,942 --> 00:46:20,693
Five stars.
827
00:46:22,613 --> 00:46:25,364
New restaurant, Tokyo
chef, five stars.
828
00:46:25,449 --> 00:46:27,992
- How you feeling, Jack?
- Perfect. Why do you ask?
829
00:46:28,076 --> 00:46:32,038
No reason, other than I think you may be
suffering from delusions of fuckin' grandeur.
830
00:46:34,458 --> 00:46:36,417
I'm gonna have to let you go.
831
00:46:37,586 --> 00:46:39,587
You violated the
firm's ethics policy.
832
00:46:39,671 --> 00:46:41,631
We asked you to help Gus
Boulis sell his business,
833
00:46:41,715 --> 00:46:44,759
not elbow your way in and
try to buy it yourself.
834
00:46:44,843 --> 00:46:48,137
Your client is difficult. Do you think any
buyer out there is gonna agree to his terms?
835
00:46:48,222 --> 00:46:50,681
- I'm trying to help you out.
- Help us out?
836
00:46:50,766 --> 00:46:52,683
Using Adam Kidan as a front man?
837
00:46:52,768 --> 00:46:55,186
He's a good guy.
He's a respectable businessman.
838
00:46:55,270 --> 00:46:58,856
He's bankrupt, he's been disbarred,
he's a mob-connected sleazeball.
839
00:46:58,941 --> 00:47:02,276
- He's told me he has a clean bill of health.
- Clean bill of health?
840
00:47:02,361 --> 00:47:04,779
I'd say he was a cheap,
fat whore with the clap.
841
00:47:04,863 --> 00:47:06,614
My God, his own
mother was whacked.
842
00:47:06,698 --> 00:47:08,908
What the hell are
you talking about?
843
00:47:08,992 --> 00:47:11,744
If you're doing business with
this guy, then so are we.
844
00:47:11,829 --> 00:47:14,539
You think I want my firm connected
with someone like that?
845
00:47:14,623 --> 00:47:17,458
And, Jack, you know
what's even worse?
846
00:47:17,543 --> 00:47:19,252
You lied to us.
847
00:47:21,171 --> 00:47:24,257
I need you to clean out your
office by the end of the month.
848
00:47:24,341 --> 00:47:27,552
You're done.
You don't think, do you, Manny?
849
00:47:28,929 --> 00:47:31,472
You never got me.
You never have, you never will.
850
00:47:31,557 --> 00:47:34,433
Am I missing some nuance here?
851
00:47:34,518 --> 00:47:36,644
Uh, yeah, I'd say you're
missing some nuance.
852
00:47:36,728 --> 00:47:39,647
You're missing a big
fucking nuance.
853
00:47:39,731 --> 00:47:42,441
The Wall Street Journal is coming out
with a piece called "The Superlobbyist."
854
00:47:42,526 --> 00:47:44,986
Do you know who that is? That's me.
I'm the superlobbyist!
855
00:47:45,070 --> 00:47:49,198
I get paid higher retainer fees than anybody
else in this town, and you goddamn well know it.
856
00:47:49,283 --> 00:47:51,200
And I'm gonna have a new
restaurant, five stars.
857
00:47:51,285 --> 00:47:53,119
Five goddamn stars.
858
00:47:56,665 --> 00:47:58,624
- Anything else?
- I love my kids.
859
00:47:58,709 --> 00:48:00,626
I work out every single day.
860
00:48:02,004 --> 00:48:04,046
You're gonna come out the
losing end of this one, Manny.
861
00:48:04,131 --> 00:48:06,841
You're gonna lose every single one
of those Indian tribes as clients.
862
00:48:06,925 --> 00:48:08,467
And you know what I'm gonna do?
863
00:48:08,552 --> 00:48:10,219
Tomorrow morning, I'm
gonna go outside,
864
00:48:10,304 --> 00:48:12,221
and when "K" Street finds
out that I'm available,
865
00:48:12,306 --> 00:48:15,933
there's gonna be five fuckin' law firms...
top-drawer... who are gonna be dying to hire me.
866
00:48:16,018 --> 00:48:18,853
They're gonna be jumping up and down like
little kids who need to go to the can.
867
00:48:18,937 --> 00:48:20,938
"Let's hire Jack Abramoff!"
868
00:48:24,151 --> 00:48:26,819
Then you should have no
reason to be unhappy.
869
00:48:28,447 --> 00:48:30,573
Absolutely.
870
00:48:50,052 --> 00:48:52,053
Nice piece.
871
00:48:52,137 --> 00:48:55,014
You playing cowboy now
with those Indians?
872
00:48:55,098 --> 00:48:56,891
You've kept me waiting.
873
00:48:56,975 --> 00:48:59,644
Wh...Why'd you get the shooter?
874
00:48:59,728 --> 00:49:01,604
You didn't tell me
about your disbarment.
875
00:49:01,688 --> 00:49:04,065
Not to mention your
fucking bankruptcy.
876
00:49:04,149 --> 00:49:06,943
Not to mention the fucking mobbed-up
connections in Saint Martin.
877
00:49:07,027 --> 00:49:10,821
Not to mention the fucking murder
of your own fucking mother!
878
00:49:10,906 --> 00:49:13,866
- Well, I was gonna tell you.
- When? 2020?
879
00:49:13,951 --> 00:49:16,577
You're a dangerous man, Adam.
That's why I've got the fucking gun.
880
00:49:17,579 --> 00:49:20,414
Okay! So go ahead! Shoot me!
881
00:49:20,499 --> 00:49:23,125
Get in my house. Get in my house.
You're a fuckin' menace.
882
00:49:23,210 --> 00:49:24,919
You know that?
883
00:49:26,421 --> 00:49:29,465
You ought to wear a sign around
your neck as a public service.
884
00:49:29,549 --> 00:49:32,218
"Beware.
Adam Kidan, Fucking Menace."
885
00:49:34,554 --> 00:49:38,474
Where's Pam? With the kids.
I sent her to see her folks.
886
00:49:38,558 --> 00:49:42,144
So you're the married dude, and I'm
like the hot, underage mistress?
887
00:49:48,110 --> 00:49:50,778
Jack, you gotta relax.
888
00:49:50,862 --> 00:49:53,239
Maybe even psychologize, okay?
889
00:49:53,323 --> 00:49:58,411
You gotta ask yourself,
what does Gus Boulis want?
890
00:49:58,495 --> 00:50:02,248
He wants to make millions of dollars and keep
his fucking business. That's what he wants.
891
00:50:02,332 --> 00:50:06,585
What Boulis wants is to keep his
company and sell it at the same time.
892
00:50:06,670 --> 00:50:09,046
He wants both.
893
00:50:09,131 --> 00:50:11,090
So how do we give him both?
894
00:50:17,514 --> 00:50:22,184
What if we quietly kick back Boulis's
10%, call it a consulting fee.
895
00:50:22,269 --> 00:50:24,895
How does that get us the missing
piece of finance? Adam, I'm already...
896
00:50:24,980 --> 00:50:27,773
Look. Jack, we're just a
few deal points away now.
897
00:50:27,858 --> 00:50:30,401
Boulis wants to keep his piece
of the business under the table.
898
00:50:30,485 --> 00:50:33,237
That's against the law.
He'll have to take our I.O.U.s.
899
00:50:33,321 --> 00:50:35,865
For 20 million?
That's a hell of a lot of I.O.U.s, Adam.
900
00:50:35,949 --> 00:50:38,034
No. You're gonna have to
find another way to pay him.
901
00:50:38,118 --> 00:50:41,454
Trust me to handle the formalities.
Sweetheart.
902
00:50:43,248 --> 00:50:47,793
Jack, the boats can be ours after the
weekend, and your money problems are over.
903
00:50:48,795 --> 00:50:50,921
Just keep it legal, okay?
904
00:50:51,006 --> 00:50:55,009
I have a better idea.
Why don't you show me your pussy?
905
00:50:57,262 --> 00:51:00,473
Okay. That's great, Jack.
906
00:51:12,986 --> 00:51:15,321
- Welcome to Greenberg.
- Okay. Down there.
907
00:51:15,405 --> 00:51:16,781
Whoo! All right.
908
00:51:16,865 --> 00:51:18,783
That's the one.
909
00:51:24,790 --> 00:51:28,501
- Now you're getting serious.
- Loving the feng shui in here, buddy.
910
00:51:28,585 --> 00:51:30,211
Here. One thing missing.
911
00:51:33,548 --> 00:51:35,049
Shit.
912
00:51:38,887 --> 00:51:41,680
Looking good, sir.
Looking very good.
913
00:51:42,307 --> 00:51:44,141
Yeah.
914
00:51:44,226 --> 00:51:47,436
Yeah, well, just hang on a sec.
Let me see if I can find him.
915
00:51:49,523 --> 00:51:52,691
Congressman. Listen. Yes, sir.
We need your vote.
916
00:51:52,776 --> 00:51:54,568
Tickets?
917
00:51:54,653 --> 00:51:57,154
Redskins, Sunday? Absolutely.
Not a problem.
918
00:51:58,490 --> 00:52:00,658
I've had the honor
to know Tom DeLay,
919
00:52:00,742 --> 00:52:02,743
the best majority
leader that, uh,
920
00:52:02,828 --> 00:52:05,913
we've had in Congress in the
history of the United States.
921
00:52:14,047 --> 00:52:17,758
All right, daddy-o.
How much if I drain this gonad left-handed?
922
00:52:17,843 --> 00:52:19,885
Oh. Come on.
923
00:52:19,970 --> 00:52:22,304
Twenty-five "K.
" You are a cheap whore.
924
00:52:22,389 --> 00:52:25,349
Come on. It's 50 at least. Look at it.
It's halfway across the tarmac.
925
00:52:25,433 --> 00:52:27,977
All right. Fifty "K.
" You'll never make it.
926
00:52:28,061 --> 00:52:30,104
All right. Here we go.
927
00:52:31,898 --> 00:52:34,733
Daddy needs a new pair of shoes.
928
00:52:37,237 --> 00:52:41,574
Booyah! Whoo! Fifty g's, G!
929
00:52:41,658 --> 00:52:44,493
- Oh, Mikey.
- What's the matter, brother?
930
00:52:44,578 --> 00:52:47,371
I'm hemorrhaging money like
Niagara Falls out of my ass.
931
00:52:47,455 --> 00:52:51,292
SunSail, the restaurant, the school...
they've all got me strapped.
932
00:52:51,376 --> 00:52:53,294
I'm bouncing checks
all over the place.
933
00:52:53,378 --> 00:52:55,629
And now I'm really out on a limb
with the second restaurant.
934
00:52:55,714 --> 00:52:57,590
What the hell do you need
with a second restaurant?
935
00:52:57,674 --> 00:52:59,758
- Well, one of them's gotta be kosher, right?
- Oh, come on.
936
00:52:59,843 --> 00:53:02,303
There isn't a decent kosher
restaurant anywhere near "K" Street.
937
00:53:02,387 --> 00:53:06,015
- So?
- We need more clients.
938
00:53:06,099 --> 00:53:09,226
You need to chill out, dude.
939
00:53:09,311 --> 00:53:13,564
I got a phone call this morning from
Chief Nokoaht of the Texas Kickapoo.
940
00:53:13,648 --> 00:53:16,275
Nokoaht of the Kickapoo?
You're kidding. We're golden, baby.
941
00:53:16,359 --> 00:53:18,444
He wants to meet with Bush
about oil drilling rights.
942
00:53:18,528 --> 00:53:22,448
I told him he wants to get her done, it's
gonna cost him a million-a-month retainer.
943
00:53:22,532 --> 00:53:24,325
Can you get that
in the end zone?
944
00:53:24,409 --> 00:53:27,870
He loves what we've done with the
Chippewa, baby. Oh, awesome!
945
00:53:27,954 --> 00:53:31,123
If that's true, man, you make
him show you the money fast!
946
00:53:31,208 --> 00:53:33,042
Show me the money! The money!
947
00:53:33,126 --> 00:53:34,585
Whoo!
948
00:53:34,669 --> 00:53:36,545
You do that.
949
00:53:36,630 --> 00:53:38,797
Give me five.
Keep it under the radar.
950
00:53:38,882 --> 00:53:43,636
Congressman, I was on the phone this
very day with the governor of Texas,
951
00:53:43,720 --> 00:53:45,846
who told me personally...
952
00:53:45,931 --> 00:53:47,640
that all of his
congressional districts...
953
00:53:47,724 --> 00:53:49,558
are gonna vote no on the bill.
954
00:53:49,643 --> 00:53:51,477
That is correct.
955
00:53:57,484 --> 00:54:00,361
Uh, Congressman, look.
My, uh... My mother's very ill.
956
00:54:00,445 --> 00:54:03,697
She's on the other line.
Could I call you back? Yes. Thank you, sir.
957
00:54:03,782 --> 00:54:05,491
We did it. We're in. We're in.
958
00:54:05,575 --> 00:54:07,243
We're in like Flynn.
959
00:54:07,327 --> 00:54:09,662
Look at that. Who's Vegas?
Who's Vegas?
960
00:54:09,746 --> 00:54:11,080
You did it, Jack.
961
00:54:11,164 --> 00:54:13,374
Vegas, baby!
962
00:54:13,458 --> 00:54:15,209
Glad to see you're
enjoying the new digs.
963
00:54:15,293 --> 00:54:17,127
You is the man, Oscar.
964
00:54:17,212 --> 00:54:19,463
Glad to have you at
Greenberg, Jack.
965
00:54:19,547 --> 00:54:22,841
Along with the Coushattas, the
Choctaw and the Chippewa.
966
00:54:22,926 --> 00:54:24,885
And don't forget
the Kickapoo too.
967
00:54:24,970 --> 00:54:27,805
Mikey, baby.
968
00:54:27,889 --> 00:54:32,184
Chippewa election central, dude,
in beautiful Saginaw, Michigan.
969
00:54:32,269 --> 00:54:34,520
Oh, man. ¿Qué pasa, "Mike-ito"?
970
00:54:34,604 --> 00:54:36,981
It is perfect timing,
because you know why?
971
00:54:37,065 --> 00:54:40,067
We just closed SunSail.
We own it.
972
00:54:40,151 --> 00:54:42,945
Oh-ho! Sweet!
973
00:54:43,029 --> 00:54:46,824
Dude! Our kwong is
so flowing, daddy-o!
974
00:54:46,908 --> 00:54:49,827
- How goes it down there with all the troglodytes?
- The what?
975
00:54:49,911 --> 00:54:51,328
Troglodyte.
976
00:54:51,413 --> 00:54:54,206
It's... Fuckin' look it up.
What am I, a dictionary?
977
00:54:54,291 --> 00:54:58,085
Dude, listen, listen.
The slate of eight rocked it today. We're in.
978
00:54:58,169 --> 00:55:00,504
Wh...What are you saying?
We won? We did it.
979
00:55:00,588 --> 00:55:03,173
We did it.
Bernie Sprague is out, Poncho is in.
980
00:55:03,258 --> 00:55:07,303
Consider us hired by the Chippewa, dude.
You are gold, you dog!
981
00:55:07,387 --> 00:55:08,929
When it rains, it pours!
982
00:55:09,014 --> 00:55:11,015
All right. We gotta start
talking about billing figures.
983
00:55:11,099 --> 00:55:13,809
I want 20 million from
these monkeys right away.
984
00:55:13,893 --> 00:55:15,811
Yes, Big Chief Rainmaker.
985
00:55:15,895 --> 00:55:19,815
Oh, dude, you have to know Sprague is
super pissed about this whole deal. Okay?
986
00:55:19,899 --> 00:55:22,818
- He took it really hard.
- Oh, yeah. What is that job he's got?
987
00:55:22,902 --> 00:55:24,653
Uh, parks and recreation
commissioner.
988
00:55:24,738 --> 00:55:27,197
Yeah, well, doesn't the
council control it?
989
00:55:27,282 --> 00:55:30,492
- Why don't you just tell Poncho to eliminate the position?
- You got it, man.
990
00:55:30,577 --> 00:55:33,620
Trim unnecessary fat from the budget,
fiscal discipline, yada, yada, yada.
991
00:55:33,705 --> 00:55:36,832
Oh, I don't know. Maybe it's bad
karma to kick a guy when he's down.
992
00:55:36,916 --> 00:55:38,959
Uh, yeah, right.
993
00:55:39,044 --> 00:55:41,962
Not only are we gonna kick him when he's down,
we're gonna kick him till he passes out.
994
00:55:42,047 --> 00:55:45,215
Then we're gonna beat him over the head with a
baseball bat, roll him up into an old rug...
995
00:55:45,300 --> 00:55:48,093
and kick him off a cliff into
the pounding surf below.
996
00:55:51,056 --> 00:55:53,265
Go take a jog, buddy.
997
00:55:58,938 --> 00:56:01,065
Mr. Abramoff's office.
998
00:56:02,192 --> 00:56:03,776
Yeah, run and get Jack.
999
00:56:03,860 --> 00:56:06,070
Excuse me. Who's calling?
1000
00:56:06,154 --> 00:56:08,072
Bernie. Bernie.
1001
00:56:08,156 --> 00:56:10,240
Bernie who?
1002
00:56:10,325 --> 00:56:13,327
Tell him I'm a rabbi on
the synagogue board.
1003
00:56:14,621 --> 00:56:16,997
Uh, Mr. Abramoff's in a meeting.
1004
00:56:17,082 --> 00:56:19,416
Uh, can he return?
1005
00:56:19,501 --> 00:56:22,419
Tell him he's gonna
have company soon.
1006
00:56:22,504 --> 00:56:24,171
Excuse me. Who is this?
1007
00:56:33,181 --> 00:56:35,015
Black 22. Black 22.
1008
00:56:42,107 --> 00:56:45,067
Are all these bastards
related to Gus?
1009
00:56:45,151 --> 00:56:48,112
How do you mean? There's enough staff
in here to run an aircraft carrier.
1010
00:56:48,196 --> 00:56:50,614
They're all family. Really?
1011
00:56:50,698 --> 00:56:53,200
This isn't the old country.
We're in America.
1012
00:56:53,284 --> 00:56:55,661
Wait in my cabin.
1013
00:57:08,466 --> 00:57:10,175
Here it is.
1014
00:57:15,014 --> 00:57:17,349
This is just today's take? Yep.
1015
00:57:17,434 --> 00:57:19,351

Mike. Mike!
1032
00:58:06,900 --> 00:58:09,234
Why is Susan Schmidt
trying to reach you?
1033
00:58:09,319 --> 00:58:12,446
She just left a message for you
on my cell phone. Ignore her.
1034
00:58:12,530 --> 00:58:15,157
She's a nosy reporter
from the Post.
1035
00:58:15,241 --> 00:58:16,992
You know Susan's a friend.
1036
00:58:17,076 --> 00:58:20,078
Babe, I don't care how many white
wine spritzers you drink with her.
1037
00:58:20,163 --> 00:58:22,998
This is business, so fuck her.
I'm not calling her back.
1038
00:58:23,082 --> 00:58:26,418
Did you see the electrician up there?
He said he would be here at 4:00.
1039
00:58:26,503 --> 00:58:28,295
What do I look like, the help?
1040
00:58:29,839 --> 00:58:32,090
You're so useless.
Where the hell do you think you're going?
1041
00:58:32,175 --> 00:58:34,593
I'm pretty sure I told you I
have a business meeting, hon.
1042
00:58:34,677 --> 00:58:36,136
A business meeting.
1043
00:58:36,221 --> 00:58:39,139
What, in your flip-flops?
How dumb do you think I am?
1044
00:58:39,224 --> 00:58:41,141
What? I have business
to discuss with Brian.
1045
00:58:41,226 --> 00:58:43,143
You have business with Brian?
1046
00:58:43,228 --> 00:58:46,230
I love you, but you're getting kinda nuts.
You know that?
1047
00:58:46,314 --> 00:58:48,899
I gotta send Brian to Michigan to
help out with the Chippewa deal.
1048
00:58:48,983 --> 00:58:52,486
And what part of your dubious dealings
with the Chippewa is Brian a party to?
1049
00:58:52,570 --> 00:58:54,988
Baby, Brian is helping us
fight the good fight, okay?
1050
00:58:55,073 --> 00:58:58,617
Oh, God, why do l waste my time here
with you and these Delaware weenies?
1051
00:58:58,701 --> 00:59:01,828
Yeah, because you'd rather be at some gay
elitist dinner party in Georgetown, right?
1052
00:59:02,622 --> 00:59:04,915
- You bet I would.
- Later.
1053
00:59:04,999 --> 00:59:06,500
Mike!
1054
00:59:12,090 --> 00:59:14,508
Forty-two hundred square feet?
1055
00:59:14,592 --> 00:59:17,302
Isn't that just overdoing
it a little bit, Adam?
1056
00:59:17,387 --> 00:59:19,096
Hey, how big is your place?
1057
00:59:19,180 --> 00:59:22,766
- Yeah, well, I got a family of seven.
- Well, I got people too.
1058
00:59:22,850 --> 00:59:25,936
It's a real beauty deal here.
Why shouldn't I have a few perks?
1059
00:59:26,020 --> 00:59:29,273
Just try to use a modicum of self-control.
Is that possible?
1060
00:59:29,357 --> 00:59:32,568
This isn't exactly Manhattan.
I'm dying of boredom here.
1061
00:59:32,652 --> 00:59:35,070
Yeah. Adam, listen to me.
I just spoke to the money people.
1062
00:59:35,154 --> 00:59:37,531
The last financials you sent over
don't make any goddamn sense.
1063
00:59:37,615 --> 00:59:40,617
I think that's maybe my pizza.
1064
00:59:40,702 --> 00:59:42,619
Adam.
1065
00:59:44,163 --> 00:59:46,957
I kick your ass, okay?
1066
00:59:47,041 --> 00:59:48,959
I'm gonna have to call you back.
1067
00:59:49,043 --> 00:59:50,961
Adam, don't hang...
1068
00:59:51,045 --> 00:59:53,380
No, go. Go, go, go.
1069
00:59:53,464 --> 00:59:55,924
Hey, hey.
See you back at the boat.
1070
00:59:56,009 --> 00:59:57,509
Bye.
1071
00:59:58,511 --> 01:00:00,012
Oh. Oh.
1072
01:00:04,892 --> 01:00:07,311
Twelve people here...
Tanya, Nick, Dimitri.
1073
01:00:07,395 --> 01:00:09,605
I'm not the welfare
department, okay?
1074
01:00:09,689 --> 01:00:12,190
Finding your relatives
new jobs is not my gig.
1075
01:00:12,275 --> 01:00:16,778
My family... they all move here
to Florida because of me.
1076
01:00:16,863 --> 01:00:19,281
What happens to them now?
They starve?
1077
01:00:19,365 --> 01:00:22,242
You know what? I'm really not having as
much fun here as it might look like.
1078
01:00:22,327 --> 01:00:25,329
Okay? And I don't need your
family around skimming the take.
1079
01:00:25,413 --> 01:00:27,080
Listen to me, you
dumb Jew bastard!
1080
01:00:27,165 --> 01:00:31,543
That wire transfer was a phony!
1081
01:00:31,628 --> 01:00:35,380
My nephew, my sister-in-law, all of them,
they all go back on the payroll tomorrow!
1082
01:00:35,465 --> 01:00:38,050
Now, you listen to me!
You're out, Gus!
1083
01:00:38,134 --> 01:00:40,636
You don't like it, sue me!
I'm not gonna sue you!
1084
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:42,387
I'm gonna kill you!
1085
01:00:44,182 --> 01:00:47,309
Since my previous statement, I have
come to learn that SunSail Casinos...
1086
01:00:47,393 --> 01:00:50,479
now finds itself
under new ownership.
1087
01:00:50,563 --> 01:00:54,608
The new owner has a reputation
for honesty and integrity.
1088
01:00:57,445 --> 01:00:59,821
Adam Kidan is most well known...
1089
01:00:59,906 --> 01:01:03,283
for his successful
enterprise, Kwikee-Mattress.
1090
01:01:03,368 --> 01:01:07,496
But he also well known as a
respected member of his community.
1091
01:01:07,580 --> 01:01:09,748
While Mr. Kidan certainly
has his hands full...
1092
01:01:09,832 --> 01:01:12,876
in his efforts to clean
up SunSail's reputation,
1093
01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:15,379
his track record in business
leads me to believe...
1094
01:01:15,463 --> 01:01:18,173
that he will easily
transform SunSail...
1095
01:01:18,257 --> 01:01:19,966
from a questionable enterprise...
1096
01:01:20,051 --> 01:01:21,468
into an outstanding
establishment...
1097
01:01:21,552 --> 01:01:25,931
that the ga... the, uh, gaming
community can be proud of.
1098
01:01:26,015 --> 01:01:29,643
- I can't hear you!
- Please stop.
1099
01:01:29,727 --> 01:01:32,479
Please...
1100
01:01:32,563 --> 01:01:36,608
Please stop. Please.
1101
01:01:38,486 --> 01:01:40,153
Please stop.
1102
01:01:40,780 --> 01:01:42,864
Please... stop.
1103
01:01:42,949 --> 01:01:44,366
Please.
1104
01:01:44,450 --> 01:01:47,369
You have reached
the voice mail of...
1105
01:01:47,453 --> 01:01:49,037
Mike Scanlon.
1106
01:01:49,122 --> 01:01:52,416
This mailbox is full.
Please try again later.
1107
01:01:58,506 --> 01:02:01,091
Is Mike in his room?
I haven't seen him this morning.
1108
01:02:01,843 --> 01:02:03,260
Oh.
1109
01:02:03,344 --> 01:02:06,388
I have some dry cleaning for him to pick up.
Oh, I'll take it.
1110
01:02:08,891 --> 01:02:10,809
Mike? Mike!
1111
01:02:14,439 --> 01:02:15,981
Mike?
1112
01:02:41,716 --> 01:02:44,259
Excuse me.
Does Abramoff know I'm here?
1113
01:02:44,343 --> 01:02:47,304
Sir, I already told you Mr.
Abramoff is unavailable.
1114
01:02:47,388 --> 01:02:50,515
So if I were you, I
wouldn't waste my time.
1115
01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:52,017
Huh.
1116
01:02:53,352 --> 01:02:55,854
Dude, seriously, I'm
worried about Emily.
1117
01:02:55,938 --> 01:02:58,315
She hasn't returned my
call since yesterday.
1118
01:02:58,399 --> 01:03:00,650
Well, you sleep in the
bed you make, my friend.
1119
01:03:00,735 --> 01:03:03,111
Oh, thanks for the empathy.
I really appreciate it.
1120
01:03:03,196 --> 01:03:06,239
Yeah, well, listen.
1121
01:03:06,324 --> 01:03:08,241
You can win anyone over.
1122
01:03:08,326 --> 01:03:09,785
Sensible people
always negotiate.
1123
01:03:09,869 --> 01:03:11,870
All you have to do is just
make Boulis sensible.
1124
01:03:11,954 --> 01:03:13,955
Oh, yeah? Great. Thanks, Jack.
You know what?
1125
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:17,000
I'm sure he's gonna be thrilled
about the bogus wire transfer.
1126
01:03:17,084 --> 01:03:20,378
I'm serious, Jack. What am I gonna say
about Kidan's phony wire transfer?
1127
01:03:22,507 --> 01:03:25,425
Gus, just let me personally
apologize for Adam Kidan.
1128
01:03:25,510 --> 01:03:27,093
He is a social menace.
1129
01:03:27,178 --> 01:03:30,388
You gonna apologize for that
phony wire transfer too?
1130
01:03:30,473 --> 01:03:33,558
What... What... What
phony wire transfer?
1131
01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:37,813
Holy shit!
1132
01:03:39,857 --> 01:03:42,359
Gus, that was
Kidan's department.
1133
01:03:42,443 --> 01:03:44,236
Had nothing to do with us, okay?
1134
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:47,447
There is nothing that I detest more
than the stench of lies, okay?
1135
01:03:47,532 --> 01:03:51,535
He is a... is an errand boy sent by
grocery clerks to collect the bill.
1136
01:03:51,619 --> 01:03:54,371
Jack and I have your cash and I
can give it to you right now.
1137
01:03:54,455 --> 01:03:57,290
You're all out of SunSail.
As far as I'm concerned, that's it.
1138
01:03:57,375 --> 01:03:59,835
Whoa, whoa, whoa, Gus.
We're reasonable people here.
1139
01:03:59,919 --> 01:04:02,128
Let's... Let's... Let's... Talk
to my lawyers, all right?
1140
01:04:02,213 --> 01:04:05,841
Well, listen, Jack and l would like
to settle this without lawyers, okay?
1141
01:04:05,925 --> 01:04:07,342
How would that happen?
1142
01:04:07,426 --> 01:04:10,345
Gus, our new clients, the
Chippewa tribe of Michigan,
1143
01:04:10,429 --> 01:04:13,557
just made me the highest paid
lobbyist in our nation's history.
1144
01:04:13,641 --> 01:04:16,184
Okay? You know why?
Because we help them, Gus.
1145
01:04:16,269 --> 01:04:19,563
And they help us, and we help you.
You help us, you help them, they help you.
1146
01:04:19,647 --> 01:04:21,565
That's how it works.
Help who? What?
1147
01:04:21,649 --> 01:04:25,819
Listen, the bottom line is we have
serious financial liquidity now,
1148
01:04:25,903 --> 01:04:28,530
and we want the opportunity
to prove to you, Gus,
1149
01:04:28,614 --> 01:04:32,158
that we can take your 11 boats and turn
them into a fleet of 30 around the world.
1150
01:04:32,243 --> 01:04:34,077
Okay?
We're talking about tripling,
1151
01:04:34,161 --> 01:04:37,038
possibly even quadrupling
our income in six months.
1152
01:04:37,123 --> 01:04:39,749
A floating casino
empire here, dude.
1153
01:04:39,834 --> 01:04:42,627
And we want you to be
a major part of that.
1154
01:04:42,712 --> 01:04:44,379
All right.
We can make this happen.
1155
01:04:44,463 --> 01:04:45,964
I don't want Kidan.
1156
01:04:46,048 --> 01:04:49,175
He's a disgusting, fat asshole.
The man groped me in front of Gus.
1157
01:04:49,260 --> 01:04:51,928
So Kidan just disappeared
from SunSail.
1158
01:04:52,013 --> 01:04:55,056
- How?
- Jack works him like a monkey on a stick.
1159
01:04:55,141 --> 01:04:57,142
All right?
You let us handle that.
1160
01:04:57,226 --> 01:05:00,186
Your pen face makes
me want to puke!
1161
01:05:00,271 --> 01:05:03,899
This is the second time I've been
a victim of family violence.
1162
01:05:03,983 --> 01:05:06,359
I had to hire a gorilla...
1163
01:05:06,444 --> 01:05:09,571
Oh. Oh. No offense. None taken.
1164
01:05:09,655 --> 01:05:11,031
I got a court order.
1165
01:05:11,115 --> 01:05:13,867
Gus Boulis can't
come near the boats.
1166
01:05:13,951 --> 01:05:17,037
I've rented an armor-plated
car 'cause of that psychotic.
1167
01:05:17,121 --> 01:05:21,458
Did you ever think that he might be mad at you
for giving him a check for $23 million...
1168
01:05:21,542 --> 01:05:23,209
that's absolutely
fucking worthless?
1169
01:05:23,294 --> 01:05:25,879
I'm talking about
my physical safety!
1170
01:05:25,963 --> 01:05:28,757
His people are moving our
slots off our boats!
1171
01:05:28,841 --> 01:05:31,593
He's capable of all manner
of strong-arm shit!
1172
01:05:31,677 --> 01:05:33,720
Well, just don't do
anything stupid.
1173
01:05:36,599 --> 01:05:38,350
Hey, I think you
broke something.
1174
01:05:39,644 --> 01:05:43,146
Well, Adam, we break
something, we fix it, right?
1175
01:05:43,230 --> 01:05:48,318
He is the all-time champ bastard
motherfucker of all time!
1176
01:05:48,402 --> 01:05:53,490
And I think you'll agree it's time
Gus Boulis was gone from SunSail!
1177
01:05:53,574 --> 01:05:55,784
- Ow!
- Let us go talk to him.
1178
01:05:55,868 --> 01:05:59,245
I know how you talk to people.
You're as subtle as a fucking chain saw.
1179
01:05:59,330 --> 01:06:00,789
Look at you!
1180
01:06:04,752 --> 01:06:07,379
Go all right?
1181
01:06:07,463 --> 01:06:10,340
Couldn't even get
through the front door.
1182
01:06:10,424 --> 01:06:13,551
Something interesting happened
with Walter over at the casino.
1183
01:06:13,636 --> 01:06:16,638
- He did an annual audit.
- Oh, yeah?
1184
01:06:16,722 --> 01:06:21,309
Nothing matched. The accountant said
that none of Abramoff's figures add up.
1185
01:06:21,394 --> 01:06:24,521
We're paying for hundreds of thousands
worth of lunches at his restaurant.
1186
01:06:24,605 --> 01:06:28,191
$200,000 for his
Redskins skybox.
1187
01:06:28,275 --> 01:06:31,653
But it's well known he helped other
tribes save billions of dollars in taxes.
1188
01:06:36,117 --> 01:06:38,743
And that so-called grassroots
campaign against the Jena?
1189
01:06:38,828 --> 01:06:42,247
lt was made up of three people handing
out a few dozen Kinko's flyers.
1190
01:06:42,331 --> 01:06:45,166
The guy took us for
a bunch of suckers.
1191
01:06:45,251 --> 01:06:48,211
Son of a bitch is no good.
1192
01:06:48,295 --> 01:06:50,880
He's now preying on the
Kickapoo and the Choctaw.
1193
01:06:59,140 --> 01:07:02,017
Look, you tell me it's about
taking care of things.
1194
01:07:02,101 --> 01:07:05,103
So l...I'll even give you a
financial piece of the casino.
1195
01:07:05,187 --> 01:07:08,565
I just don't want to take any
more chances with this guy.
1196
01:07:09,608 --> 01:07:10,942
I don't know, Adam.
1197
01:07:11,027 --> 01:07:13,903
Tony, we're old friends.
Don't make me beg.
1198
01:07:15,448 --> 01:07:19,784
You know, I had an uncle
who was half-Jewish.
1199
01:07:19,869 --> 01:07:22,120
He used to relax me.
1200
01:07:22,204 --> 01:07:23,872
Give me your hand.
1201
01:07:23,956 --> 01:07:25,707
Give me your hand, palm up.
1202
01:07:25,791 --> 01:07:27,292
Palm up. He used to go...
1203
01:07:32,298 --> 01:07:34,549
Ow!
1204
01:07:34,633 --> 01:07:36,217
Fuck.
1205
01:07:37,386 --> 01:07:40,055
He scared me and relaxed
me at the same time.
1206
01:07:42,016 --> 01:07:45,060
Anyway, from what you tell me,
this goof, this fucking Greek...
1207
01:07:45,144 --> 01:07:46,936
deserves a broken leg at least.
1208
01:07:47,021 --> 01:07:49,731
No, no, no. Violence sickens me.
1209
01:07:49,815 --> 01:07:52,025
I can hit him in
the fucking head.
1210
01:07:52,109 --> 01:07:54,527
No! No! No shooting, please.
1211
01:07:54,612 --> 01:07:58,198
Look, you'll come down
there and you'll be a...
1212
01:07:59,867 --> 01:08:02,535
What?
The ship's catering director?
1213
01:08:02,620 --> 01:08:04,162
What do I know about cooking?
1214
01:08:05,998 --> 01:08:08,917
So you'll learn to make gyros.
Can it be that difficult?
1215
01:08:09,001 --> 01:08:11,544
- Gyros? What's a "gyros"?
- "Heroes."
1216
01:08:11,629 --> 01:08:16,257
Listen to me. I'm telling you now
like I would tell my own son.
1217
01:08:16,342 --> 01:08:19,803
I've been in this
business 50 years.
1218
01:08:19,887 --> 01:08:21,805
The correct move...
1219
01:08:22,973 --> 01:08:24,224
is to whack him.
1220
01:08:24,308 --> 01:08:26,810
No. Tony, listen.
1221
01:08:26,894 --> 01:08:29,229
You should know there's
important people involved.
1222
01:08:29,313 --> 01:08:33,108
Political people.
High up. Way high up.
1223
01:08:33,192 --> 01:08:36,236
And there's a lot of money involved.
Hundreds of millions of dollars.
1224
01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,988
Everything is very,
very, very sensitive.
1225
01:08:42,451 --> 01:08:45,245
Okay. I got it covered.
1226
01:08:45,329 --> 01:08:47,080
Got it covered.
1227
01:08:47,164 --> 01:08:49,541
What about Abramoff?
Is he okay with this?
1228
01:08:49,625 --> 01:08:52,460
Jack? He'll never come down.
He's in D.C.
1229
01:08:52,545 --> 01:08:54,170
Besides, I got the guy baffled.
1230
01:08:54,255 --> 01:08:55,338
Okay.
1231
01:08:55,422 --> 01:08:57,423
I need 40 grand right away.
1232
01:08:57,508 --> 01:09:01,302
I just want you to make sure Gus Boulis never
attacks me again with a fucking ballpoint.
1233
01:09:03,389 --> 01:09:05,056
It's not funny.
1234
01:09:05,141 --> 01:09:07,183
- A fucking pen.
- It's not funny.
1235
01:09:07,268 --> 01:09:10,436
All right. Hey, listen.
1236
01:09:12,606 --> 01:09:15,024
Why don't you go on a vacation?
1237
01:09:17,236 --> 01:09:19,654
Don't worry. I'll be nice.
1238
01:09:30,583 --> 01:09:34,502
Jack, the I.M.F.
is never going to allow the Russians in...
1239
01:09:34,587 --> 01:09:37,505
until Putin deals with
the human rights issues.
1240
01:09:37,590 --> 01:09:39,674
Come on. You don't think we
have influence in Moscow?
1241
01:09:39,758 --> 01:09:42,510
I don't care! I'm sick and tired of waiting!
I've come from Michigan!
1242
01:09:42,595 --> 01:09:45,388
- I know the son of a bitch is back here someplace.
- Excuse me! Excuse me!
1243
01:09:45,472 --> 01:09:47,599
- Get your hands off me!
- You cannot come in here!
1244
01:09:47,683 --> 01:09:49,601
You have no right to go
by reception like that!
1245
01:09:49,685 --> 01:09:53,521
Hey, let's talk about the 20 million you
took off my people, you and Scanlon.
1246
01:09:53,606 --> 01:09:55,815
- Never mind hiding in
your goddamn office.
1247
01:09:55,900 --> 01:09:58,693
- Yeah.
- Look, I came all the way from Michigan to talk to you!
1248
01:09:58,777 --> 01:10:02,947
From today on, Jack, I'm
gonna make you my hobby.
1249
01:10:04,116 --> 01:10:05,867
Who was that guy?
1250
01:10:05,951 --> 01:10:09,287
Bad karma. Anyway, I know
people who know Putin.
1251
01:10:17,004 --> 01:10:18,504
Ms. Miller?
1252
01:10:19,715 --> 01:10:21,841
I'm Agent Hanley.
Please, come in.
1253
01:10:25,346 --> 01:10:28,473
Uh, you have something you
wish to report? I do.
1254
01:10:36,774 --> 01:10:39,317
Ms. Miller, is this
a federal issue?
1255
01:10:41,237 --> 01:10:42,987
You bet.
1256
01:10:44,156 --> 01:10:46,074
It's a little
embarrassing, Jack.
1257
01:10:46,158 --> 01:10:48,076
Look, he's a Jewish kid
from the West Bank...
1258
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:51,079
who's tired of having Ηamas lob
rockets into his neighborhood.
1259
01:10:51,163 --> 01:10:53,081
He wanted to build a sniper
school, I helped him out.
1260
01:10:53,165 --> 01:10:55,583
With a shipment of a thousand
night-vision goggles?
1261
01:10:55,668 --> 01:10:58,753
Okay. We make a lot of money, right?
Don't you think it's our obligation to help too?
1262
01:10:58,837 --> 01:11:01,464
It's good karma.
You bought them from the Russians, Jack.
1263
01:11:01,548 --> 01:11:03,591
I got a lot of good
contacts in Moscow now.
1264
01:11:03,676 --> 01:11:06,469
Jack, Newsweek is calling
you a Zionist thug.
1265
01:11:06,553 --> 01:11:08,471
You got that Time
magazine article?
1266
01:11:08,555 --> 01:11:12,141
The same week that Newsweek
calls me a Zionist thug,
1267
01:11:12,226 --> 01:11:15,603
Time magazine accuses me of
supporting Islamic terrorism...
1268
01:11:15,688 --> 01:11:20,149
because I gave money to Grover to help
him mobilize Republican Muslims in Ohio.
1269
01:11:20,234 --> 01:11:22,402
The press are maniacs.
You know that.
1270
01:11:22,486 --> 01:11:26,114
A lot of people are talking, Jack.
You're drawing too much attention to our profession.
1271
01:11:26,198 --> 01:11:27,865
Bunch of wusses.
1272
01:11:27,950 --> 01:11:31,953
Jack, this isn't the '90s anymore.
Look around. It's post 9/11.
1273
01:11:32,037 --> 01:11:34,664
Bill Clinton isn't running around
boasting about budget surpluses...
1274
01:11:34,748 --> 01:11:37,500
and drinking Krug out
of crystal flutes.
1275
01:11:37,584 --> 01:11:40,295
Bill Clinton is the best thing
that ever happened to Washington,
1276
01:11:40,379 --> 01:11:42,213
and I say that as a Republican.
1277
01:11:43,716 --> 01:11:45,675
Let me spell it out for you.
1278
01:11:47,094 --> 01:11:49,220
"K" Street doesn't like
the limelight, Jack.
1279
01:11:51,265 --> 01:11:53,933
The partners and l are
giving you a warning.
1280
01:11:54,018 --> 01:11:56,019
You're wrong on this.
1281
01:12:05,321 --> 01:12:07,530
Susan Schmidt, Washington Post.
1282
01:12:07,614 --> 01:12:09,824
Susan, Emily Miller.
1283
01:12:09,908 --> 01:12:12,243
I'd like to talk to you
about Mike Scanlon...
1284
01:12:12,328 --> 01:12:14,329
and the Chippewa Indians.
1285
01:12:15,873 --> 01:12:18,249
270 "P" Street, please.
1286
01:12:35,100 --> 01:12:39,062
Hey. Who the hell asked
you to sit down, pop?
1287
01:12:39,146 --> 01:12:41,939
Mr. Boulis,
1288
01:12:42,024 --> 01:12:44,275
you don't return phone calls.
1289
01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:46,944
Yeah, well, I work for a living.
I'm busy.
1290
01:12:47,029 --> 01:12:51,574
Well, I mean, you got a
nice operation here.
1291
01:12:51,658 --> 01:12:54,327
But it's rude, see?
1292
01:12:54,411 --> 01:12:56,996
Could I have a cracker?
I'm starving.
1293
01:12:57,081 --> 01:13:00,041
Who the fuck are you, I
should return your calls?
1294
01:13:00,125 --> 01:13:02,877
I'm looking after Mr. Kidan now.
1295
01:13:02,961 --> 01:13:06,672
His interests are my interests.
He's with me.
1296
01:13:06,757 --> 01:13:08,925
Adam fuckin' Kidan
can suck my prick.
1297
01:13:10,761 --> 01:13:13,388
- Really?
- Yeah, really.
1298
01:13:13,472 --> 01:13:16,474
And no goombah wop is
gonna waste my time.
1299
01:13:17,476 --> 01:13:19,143
Oh.
1300
01:13:22,981 --> 01:13:27,652
Well, maybe I should explain to you
who I am before this goes too far.
1301
01:13:28,487 --> 01:13:30,571
I know who you are.
1302
01:13:30,656 --> 01:13:32,990
You're the senior citizen
fucking Al Capone.
1303
01:13:33,075 --> 01:13:36,119
I'll cut your fucking throat.
Okay, gramps?
1304
01:13:36,203 --> 01:13:37,829
Oh, okay.
1305
01:13:40,457 --> 01:13:42,667
All right, fine. I'll go.
1306
01:13:45,712 --> 01:13:47,839
I don't bother you no more.
1307
01:14:04,106 --> 01:14:07,859
Listen, trust me, Chief.
Bernie Sprague is becoming a problem.
1308
01:14:07,943 --> 01:14:11,112
Yeah? Can you help me
out with this guy?
1309
01:14:11,196 --> 01:14:13,489
Your guy Scallion
told me to fire him.
1310
01:14:13,574 --> 01:14:17,243
Scanlon. Look, can you just
give him his job back?
1311
01:14:17,327 --> 01:14:20,329
lt doesn't exist anymore.
Scanlon eliminated it.
1312
01:14:20,414 --> 01:14:21,706
Right?
1313
01:14:21,790 --> 01:14:24,125
Well, look, you know, I can't...
1314
01:14:24,209 --> 01:14:27,962
Musharraf. I've met Musharraf, okay?
Newt Gingrich knows my name.
1315
01:14:28,046 --> 01:14:32,216
I don't need this guy. Can you just give
him some job and get him off my back?
1316
01:14:32,301 --> 01:14:33,885
Hey, Jack, guess what.
1317
01:14:33,969 --> 01:14:35,011
What?
1318
01:14:35,095 --> 01:14:37,430
I got the new H2
in metallic red.
1319
01:14:37,514 --> 01:14:40,558
It's fully loaded and it
is fucking beautiful!
1320
01:14:40,642 --> 01:14:42,560
Great. Hope you enjoy it.
1321
01:14:42,644 --> 01:14:44,061
Enid!
1322
01:14:45,022 --> 01:14:46,564
There he is.
1323
01:14:46,648 --> 01:14:50,109
He ain't such a tough
guy now, is he?
1324
01:14:51,653 --> 01:14:53,654
Gyro.
1325
01:14:53,739 --> 01:14:56,574
You know, this oughta make that
fat Jew happy for a change.
1326
01:14:56,658 --> 01:15:00,912
Forget Kidan. If he doesn't do what we
say with SunSail, it'll be him next.
1327
01:15:11,715 --> 01:15:13,925
Go!
1328
01:15:27,272 --> 01:15:30,399
Emily? Baby?
1329
01:15:30,484 --> 01:15:33,027
Em?
1330
01:15:33,111 --> 01:15:34,820
You here, baby?
1331
01:15:40,744 --> 01:15:42,495
Baby.
1332
01:15:48,001 --> 01:15:52,463
And over here we have a beautiful
portrait by Aaron Shikler...
1333
01:15:52,548 --> 01:15:56,342
of our 35th president,
John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
1334
01:15:56,426 --> 01:16:00,221
Adam, Adam, what are you talking about?
Are you nuts?
1335
01:16:00,305 --> 01:16:02,807
You said you wanted Gus
Boulis gone from SunSail.
1336
01:16:02,891 --> 01:16:04,809
Five shots in the head.
Five shots in the head.
1337
01:16:04,893 --> 01:16:07,019
That's what you think I was
suggesting, you fucking moron?
1338
01:16:07,104 --> 01:16:10,231
Well, I asked him to be my
caterer, not whack the guy.
1339
01:16:10,315 --> 01:16:13,401
Anyway, you were over a thousand miles away.
They can't connect us to it.
1340
01:16:13,485 --> 01:16:15,027
Are you serious?
1341
01:16:15,112 --> 01:16:17,697
Do you have any idea that the grand
jury is sitting right now...
1342
01:16:17,781 --> 01:16:19,323
discussing fraud on
the wire transfer?
1343
01:16:19,408 --> 01:16:22,994
God, why did I even get involved in SunSail?
What was I thinking?
1344
01:16:23,078 --> 01:16:24,287
Oy vey.
1345
01:16:24,371 --> 01:16:26,414
So now we got blood
on our hands?
1346
01:16:26,498 --> 01:16:30,126
Oh, no. No, no, no. They're not coming after me.
They're coming after you, Adam. You know why?
1347
01:16:30,210 --> 01:16:33,838
Because I know those guys at Justice and
they jerk off thinking about guys like you.
1348
01:16:33,922 --> 01:16:36,340
My right hand to God, Jack,
I wish I'd never met you!
1349
01:16:36,425 --> 01:16:40,386
Fuck you! Fuck you, you
stupid, goddamn fatty!
1350
01:16:40,470 --> 01:16:42,179
What? You're the one who's fat!
1351
01:16:42,264 --> 01:16:45,141
You fat, fat, fake Jew fuck fat!
1352
01:16:45,225 --> 01:16:48,477
Eat me, you goddamn
fat cocksucker!
1353
01:16:49,329 --> 01:16:51,047
Sorry. Little issue on the Hill.
1354
01:16:53,025 --> 01:16:55,610
Presidential
portrait collection...
1355
01:16:57,903 --> 01:16:58,589
What?
1356
01:16:58,692 --> 01:17:01,823
Mr. Abramoff, Congressman DeLay
needs you to come to his office.
1357
01:17:02,858 --> 01:17:04,548
Yes, well, if you'll tell Tom...
1358
01:17:04,568 --> 01:17:08,595
that I'm currently in the White House about
to see the president of the United States.
1359
01:17:08,615 --> 01:17:11,000
I have Chief Nokoaht of
the Kickapoo with me.
1360
01:17:11,084 --> 01:17:13,479
Congressman DeLay says you should
drop whatever you're doing...
1361
01:17:13,499 --> 01:17:15,277
and come to his
office immediately.
1362
01:17:15,297 --> 01:17:18,235
- The president will see you now.
- I have to call you back.
1363
01:17:18,723 --> 01:17:20,268
Mr. President.
1364
01:17:21,178 --> 01:17:24,889
How you doing there, buff guy?
Looks like you been working out.
1365
01:17:24,973 --> 01:17:27,248
Mike!
Mike, listen to me, all right?
1366
01:17:27,268 --> 01:17:30,186
Why... Listen.
This could be very serious.
1367
01:17:30,270 --> 01:17:32,772
Why is the Washington Post calling
DeLay about the Chippewa?
1368
01:17:32,856 --> 01:17:36,275
His secretary says he's freaking out
about a story they're running tomorrow.
1369
01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:39,487
Jack... me and Emily broke up.
1370
01:17:39,571 --> 01:17:42,031
Oh, well, you know, buddy,
you got my condolences.
1371
01:17:42,115 --> 01:17:44,283
But, you know, he's about
to rip my head off.
1372
01:17:44,368 --> 01:17:47,703
No, no, no! Listen!
Emily found out about the stewardess Crystal.
1373
01:17:47,788 --> 01:17:49,914
But this could be serious, Mike.
Pay attention.
1374
01:17:49,998 --> 01:17:51,707
No, Jack, you're not listening!
1375
01:17:51,792 --> 01:17:54,126
She found Crystal's panties
in my dry cleaning,
1376
01:17:54,211 --> 01:17:58,047
and she got super-fucking pissed
and went to the F.B.l., dude!
1377
01:17:58,131 --> 01:18:01,258
She knew everything about "give me five," Jack.
She had no mercy!
1378
01:18:02,344 --> 01:18:05,054
You told Emily Miller
about "give me five"?
1379
01:18:05,138 --> 01:18:07,390
How could you be
so fucking stupid?
1380
01:18:07,474 --> 01:18:11,185
We were getting married!
She wanted us to share everything, Jack!
1381
01:18:11,269 --> 01:18:14,355
You're married! You know what it's like!
Come on, man!
1382
01:18:14,439 --> 01:18:17,775
Mike, what the fuck
were you thinking?
1383
01:18:17,859 --> 01:18:20,695
Hey! Hey! Hey!
I have my priorities too, man!
1384
01:18:20,779 --> 01:18:23,906
You should have been thinking of me!
I'm your fucking priority!
1385
01:18:23,990 --> 01:18:25,533
Oh, right! Right!
1386
01:18:25,617 --> 01:18:29,495
So when I'm in the pen catching it
from some big black dude named Busta,
1387
01:18:29,579 --> 01:18:31,872
I'll be thinking of
Jack fucking Abramoff!
1388
01:18:31,957 --> 01:18:36,210
We're fucked, dude!
It's totally over!
1389
01:18:36,294 --> 01:18:39,422
Jack!
1390
01:18:52,978 --> 01:18:54,812
He's waiting for you.
1391
01:18:59,025 --> 01:19:00,484
Hey, Tom.
1392
01:19:02,028 --> 01:19:04,488
Come on in here, Jack.
1393
01:19:04,573 --> 01:19:09,869
My, uh, secretary told you about
how concerned I am about this, uh...
1394
01:19:09,953 --> 01:19:12,872
this story coming out in
tomorrow's Washington Post.
1395
01:19:12,956 --> 01:19:15,374
Look, they're probably gonna
bury it in the National section.
1396
01:19:15,459 --> 01:19:18,294
Indian gambling is a very dull subject.
Trust me.
1397
01:19:18,378 --> 01:19:20,379
What in the hell were
you thinking, boy?
1398
01:19:20,464 --> 01:19:23,090
Tom, I don't know what this
story is about. I haven't...
1399
01:19:23,175 --> 01:19:25,801
You listen to me!
1400
01:19:25,886 --> 01:19:30,055
I did not claw my way out of the
mosquito-infested flatlands of Laredo, Texas,
1401
01:19:30,140 --> 01:19:33,100
to become majority leader of
the United States Congress...
1402
01:19:33,185 --> 01:19:36,270
only to be brought down
by a no-good lying J...
1403
01:19:42,611 --> 01:19:43,986
Jack, you remember
Reverend Mueller...
1404
01:19:44,070 --> 01:19:45,529
from my home
district, don't you?
1405
01:19:46,907 --> 01:19:48,407
Yes.
1406
01:19:53,038 --> 01:19:55,414
Take a seat, Mr. Abramoff.
1407
01:20:06,051 --> 01:20:08,427
You got a lot to
answer for, Jack.
1408
01:20:09,596 --> 01:20:12,223
And there's just so much
I don't understand.
1409
01:20:15,101 --> 01:20:18,229
But first, I think it's
important that we, uh,
1410
01:20:18,313 --> 01:20:21,315
sit here together as
men of faith and pray.
1411
01:20:24,236 --> 01:20:25,945
Reverend.
1412
01:20:27,489 --> 01:20:29,198
Jack.
1413
01:20:35,205 --> 01:20:38,666
ln the name of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
1414
01:20:38,750 --> 01:20:43,879
Dear Lord, as we sit here under
the shadow of a gathering storm...
1415
01:21:19,541 --> 01:21:21,959
You know, I think
my life is over.
1416
01:21:25,630 --> 01:21:29,133
Honey, I don't mean to change the subject,
but when did you start smoking?
1417
01:21:30,802 --> 01:21:33,721
lt is the Sabbath, you know.
1418
01:21:33,805 --> 01:21:38,559
Jack, have I not always
been straight with you?
1419
01:21:38,643 --> 01:21:42,229
Not always the good
mother and devoted wife?
1420
01:21:42,314 --> 01:21:43,606
Of course you have.
1421
01:21:43,690 --> 01:21:47,443
Then I think you should just,
you know, go to whoever,
1422
01:21:47,527 --> 01:21:50,654
confess and, like,
get it over with.
1423
01:21:50,739 --> 01:21:52,156
Confess?
1424
01:21:53,491 --> 01:21:55,784
I have no idea who
killed Boulis.
1425
01:21:55,869 --> 01:21:57,786
Who's gonna believe you, Jack?
1426
01:21:57,871 --> 01:22:00,789
And what about all of
this Indian gaming stuff?
1427
01:22:00,874 --> 01:22:04,877
Honey, I haven't done anything that every
other lobbyist in Washington does.
1428
01:22:04,961 --> 01:22:08,881
Charging high fees... Everybody knows I save
those Indian tribes billions of dollars.
1429
01:22:08,965 --> 01:22:12,259
Jack, they're saying that you were
hiding the money you were making...
1430
01:22:12,344 --> 01:22:15,054
by splitting it with
Scanlon under the table.
1431
01:22:18,683 --> 01:22:21,185
Honey, that's no different
than what Ralph...
1432
01:22:23,480 --> 01:22:26,231
Look, that's just a
technicality, really.
1433
01:22:26,316 --> 01:22:28,442
Look, I'm gonna sell
the restaurants.
1434
01:22:28,526 --> 01:22:30,736
I'm gonna hire the most
aggressive lawyer I can find.
1435
01:22:30,820 --> 01:22:33,447
Those assholes out there are
accusing me of selling access?
1436
01:22:33,531 --> 01:22:37,284
What the fuck do you think everybody on
"K" Street does? We all sell access!
1437
01:22:37,369 --> 01:22:39,787
That doesn't make
it right, Jack.
1438
01:22:39,871 --> 01:22:42,581
Goddamn it! Stop justifying it!
1439
01:22:42,666 --> 01:22:44,375
It's all bullshit!
1440
01:23:02,310 --> 01:23:04,228
Maybe you're right, honey.
1441
01:23:10,110 --> 01:23:12,569
I just got caught
up in all of it.
1442
01:23:14,948 --> 01:23:18,534
I should have never gotten in
business with someone like Kidan.
1443
01:23:20,620 --> 01:23:22,955
And I got greedy
with the tribes.
1444
01:23:24,499 --> 01:23:25,749
And I worry now...
1445
01:23:29,504 --> 01:23:33,215
I worry so much that
I've let down God.
1446
01:23:40,932 --> 01:23:43,392
How about me and your kids?
1447
01:23:50,692 --> 01:23:54,778
What about letting
down me and the kids?
1448
01:24:00,076 --> 01:24:02,911
That's okay. It's okay.
1449
01:24:02,996 --> 01:24:06,040
We're gonna be okay.
We're gonna be okay.
1450
01:24:06,124 --> 01:24:09,168
I got lots of friends
on the Hill.
1451
01:24:09,252 --> 01:24:11,879
We have no friends, Jack.
1452
01:24:11,963 --> 01:24:13,630
None.
1453
01:24:14,716 --> 01:24:19,178
All we have are people
you do business with.
1454
01:24:20,597 --> 01:24:22,890
I have a statement I'd
like to make at this time.
1455
01:24:22,974 --> 01:24:27,186
The good Lord has always told me the
difference between right and wrong.
1456
01:24:27,270 --> 01:24:31,356
All I can tell you now is that if
someone is trading on my good name...
1457
01:24:31,441 --> 01:24:33,609
to get clients or make money,
1458
01:24:33,693 --> 01:24:37,946
it is unconscionable, it is illegal
and he should stop immediately.
1459
01:24:38,031 --> 01:24:42,242
I am absolutely outraged by the dishonest
and duplicitous words and actions...
1460
01:24:42,327 --> 01:24:44,703
of Jack Abramoff.
1461
01:24:44,788 --> 01:24:49,249
NBC News ln-Depth tonight, a former
super lobbyist in Washington...
1462
01:24:49,334 --> 01:24:50,834
A lobbyist named Jack Abramoff...
1463
01:24:50,919 --> 01:24:52,503
Abramoff and his friends...
1464
01:24:52,587 --> 01:24:54,505
are some of the biggest players
in the conservative revolution.
1465
01:24:54,589 --> 01:24:57,341
They believe corruption and
illegal activities are a problem.
1466
01:24:57,425 --> 01:24:59,426
Mushroomed into multiple
investigations.
1467
01:24:59,511 --> 01:25:02,679
Exploiting Indian tribes,
buying members of Congress...
1468
01:25:02,764 --> 01:25:05,099
Potentially bad news for
leading members of Congress...
1469
01:25:05,183 --> 01:25:08,894
Could prove to be the... the biggest
congressional scandal of the century.
1470
01:25:08,978 --> 01:25:12,189
Could spell big trouble for
some big-time lawmakers.
1471
01:25:12,273 --> 01:25:14,233
Well, there are a lot
of people scared.
1472
01:25:14,317 --> 01:25:17,236
This whole thing's turning
into the Enron of lobbying.
1473
01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:18,946
How the hell are we
gonna cope with that?
1474
01:25:19,030 --> 01:25:21,240
Look what happened with those
accountants for Enron.
1475
01:25:21,324 --> 01:25:25,202
They failed to cooperate and the government
took away their license to do business.
1476
01:25:25,286 --> 01:25:29,706
I figure we make reparations
to the Tiguas, Choctaws,
1477
01:25:29,791 --> 01:25:32,918
the Chippewas and
the Agua Caliente.
1478
01:25:35,004 --> 01:25:36,964
- That ain't hay.
- Hey, guys, you're...
1479
01:25:37,048 --> 01:25:39,424
You're costing us
70 million, Jack.
1480
01:25:39,509 --> 01:25:42,136
Oh, that much? Do you know how
much money I saved those Indians?
1481
01:25:42,220 --> 01:25:46,056
Look, Jack, they're saying that you and Scanlon
defrauded those tribes of the 70 million.
1482
01:25:46,141 --> 01:25:48,642
That money's gotta
come from somewhere.
1483
01:25:48,726 --> 01:25:51,770
Who the hell do you think's gonna pay for this?
We are sitting in shit here, Jack.
1484
01:25:51,855 --> 01:25:55,524
Do you have any idea, any of you, how
much money I give away every day?
1485
01:26:00,864 --> 01:26:03,615
How soon can you be
out of your office?
1486
01:26:04,826 --> 01:26:06,535
Jack!
1487
01:26:08,580 --> 01:26:10,956
Uh...
1488
01:26:11,040 --> 01:26:13,876
- I need a couple of weeks.
- You have 30 minutes.
1489
01:26:16,004 --> 01:26:18,714
For God's sake, you're on the front
page of the Washington Post.
1490
01:26:20,592 --> 01:26:21,925
Again?
1491
01:26:24,596 --> 01:26:26,263
Is it above the fold?
1492
01:27:03,593 --> 01:27:06,386
Enid. Enid?
1493
01:27:06,471 --> 01:27:08,013
Would you put a call in...
1494
01:27:08,097 --> 01:27:10,349
to my old friend Simon
Bowler at Paramount?
1495
01:27:13,811 --> 01:27:17,731
Paramount Pictures.
It's a movie studio in Hollywood.
1496
01:27:19,234 --> 01:27:21,235
Call him, and tell him I
want to set up a meeting...
1497
01:27:21,319 --> 01:27:23,487
because I've got a great movie
idea I want to pitch to him.
1498
01:27:25,365 --> 01:27:27,824
Do you want to hear it?
1499
01:27:28,952 --> 01:27:30,702
Oh, Jack.
1500
01:27:35,416 --> 01:27:39,127
Jack, how are you? I didn't think
you still had the film bug in you.
1501
01:27:39,212 --> 01:27:41,546
Ah, you never lose it.
And you know what?
1502
01:27:41,631 --> 01:27:44,883
The folks in Washington... they love movies,
even if they pretend that they don't.
1503
01:27:44,968 --> 01:27:49,054
I mean, every week George Bush calls me to
ask me, "What movie should I be screening?"
1504
01:27:49,138 --> 01:27:50,847
At the White House?
1505
01:27:50,932 --> 01:27:52,557
You're damn right.
1506
01:27:56,354 --> 01:27:59,356
You've been getting a
lot of press lately.
1507
01:28:00,358 --> 01:28:02,109
Feeling the heat?
1508
01:28:02,193 --> 01:28:05,821
Oh, no, no, not at all. It'll all blow over.
It's par for the course.
1509
01:28:05,905 --> 01:28:09,366
So you're here to pitch
us an idea for a movie.
1510
01:28:09,450 --> 01:28:12,452
Based on the Old Testament.
A biblical epic.
1511
01:28:12,537 --> 01:28:15,580
A kind of retelling of
the Ten Commandments,
1512
01:28:15,665 --> 01:28:18,333
only this time, it's
called Pharaoh's Thorn.
1513
01:28:18,418 --> 01:28:21,128
All right?
Now, here's the great modern twist.
1514
01:28:21,212 --> 01:28:25,507
It's kind of a Bourne ldentity, action...like
Moses leading his people out of Egypt.
1515
01:28:25,591 --> 01:28:27,342
Russell Crowe,
perfect for Moses.
1516
01:28:27,427 --> 01:28:29,594
I think we can get
Ridley to direct it.
1517
01:28:29,679 --> 01:28:32,597
Now, listen, man, this
film is epic in scale.
1518
01:28:32,682 --> 01:28:34,558
CinemaScope. Big story.
1519
01:28:34,642 --> 01:28:38,228
Russell Crowe leading his people
out of Egypt to the promised land.
1520
01:28:38,313 --> 01:28:40,105
Happy ending!
1521
01:28:46,404 --> 01:28:48,447
Excuse me. Yes?
1522
01:28:48,531 --> 01:28:52,909
Jack Abramoff?
This is Agent Patterson with the F.B.I.
1523
01:28:52,994 --> 01:28:54,077
Yes?
1524
01:28:58,416 --> 01:28:59,958
Michael Scanlon?
1525
01:29:01,336 --> 01:29:02,586
Yeah.
1526
01:29:09,344 --> 01:29:11,345
Oh, hey, guys. Come on in.
1527
01:29:15,475 --> 01:29:16,933
Hey!
1528
01:29:17,810 --> 01:29:20,562
Let me call my wife.
1529
01:29:20,646 --> 01:29:24,107
What about my phone call?
Let me call my wife.
1530
01:29:36,245 --> 01:29:37,871
I'm sorry.
1531
01:29:37,955 --> 01:29:42,584
The right of individuals, groups and
corporations to lobby the federal government...
1532
01:29:42,668 --> 01:29:45,587
is protected by the
right to petition...
1533
01:29:45,671 --> 01:29:48,382
in the First Amendment of the
United States Constitution.
1534
01:29:48,466 --> 01:29:51,551
Huh? So, what's the problem?
1535
01:29:51,636 --> 01:29:54,930
Honestly, I don't know.
1536
01:29:56,599 --> 01:29:58,266
I don't know.
1537
01:30:17,495 --> 01:30:19,579
Very nice that you finally
have decided to cooperate.
1538
01:30:19,664 --> 01:30:22,582
Look, I know you wanted me to do it for a while,
but we finally talked about it as a family...
1539
01:30:22,667 --> 01:30:24,418
and that's the decision
we've reached.
1540
01:30:24,502 --> 01:30:26,420
Right. There's one tiny problem.
What's that?
1541
01:30:26,504 --> 01:30:29,423
You're a little late.
Michael Scanlon has beat you to the punch.
1542
01:30:29,507 --> 01:30:32,592
He negotiated a signed deal
with Justice on Tuesday.
1543
01:30:32,677 --> 01:30:35,053
Does that mean Jack
can't make a deal?
1544
01:30:35,138 --> 01:30:37,347
I'm sorry, Pam.
They don't need him.
1545
01:30:37,432 --> 01:30:38,682
They don't need you.
1546
01:30:40,393 --> 01:30:44,604
He kept track of everything... e-mails,
phone conversations, the lot.
1547
01:30:44,689 --> 01:30:49,276
He was saying how the two of you scammed
the tribe of almost $20 million,
1548
01:30:49,360 --> 01:30:51,528
how the two of you
conspired to bribe Ney.
1549
01:30:51,612 --> 01:30:54,739
The trip to Scotland and
meals at your restaurants...
1550
01:30:54,824 --> 01:30:56,950
It's all out there.
1551
01:30:57,034 --> 01:31:00,328
They're calling it the stream of things of value.
Well, that is bullshit.
1552
01:31:00,413 --> 01:31:02,747
- It's a technicality. He knows it.
- Well, it's all out there.
1553
01:31:02,832 --> 01:31:04,666
He's given all this
shit to Justice?
1554
01:31:04,750 --> 01:31:08,044
Well, you know what? Your good buddy used
you as his "Get Out of Jail Free" card.
1555
01:31:09,672 --> 01:31:13,341
Now, I'm afraid I got more
good news for you folks.
1556
01:31:13,426 --> 01:31:16,094
The Indian Affairs Committee has
asked to make formal inquiries.
1557
01:31:16,179 --> 01:31:18,972
They're gonna subpoena you
before a Senate hearing.
1558
01:31:19,056 --> 01:31:20,891
A Senate hearing?
1559
01:31:20,975 --> 01:31:24,644
Jack has helped half of the Senate get
reelected, and now they're gonna...
1560
01:31:24,729 --> 01:31:26,813
Isn't there someone we can call?
1561
01:31:26,898 --> 01:31:29,816
Who's the head of the
Indian Affairs Committee?
1562
01:31:36,282 --> 01:31:37,949
John McCain.
1563
01:31:39,952 --> 01:31:42,078
What are you gonna do?
1564
01:31:44,165 --> 01:31:46,291
I'm... I'll tell you
what I'm gonna do.
1565
01:31:46,375 --> 01:31:49,544
I'm gonna tell them I was doing my goddamn job.
That's what I was doing. My job.
1566
01:31:49,629 --> 01:31:52,005
Jack!
They are not gonna play nice.
1567
01:31:52,089 --> 01:31:55,800
Do you understand that? I strongly suggest
that you go in there and plead the Fifth.
1568
01:31:55,885 --> 01:31:58,970
The Fifth?
I might as well say I'm guilty.
1569
01:31:59,055 --> 01:32:01,264
I will not plead the Fifth!
1570
01:32:01,349 --> 01:32:04,851
I'd like to thank Senator McCain.
Thank you, Senator Jarvis.
1571
01:32:04,936 --> 01:32:07,270
I want to thank you and the
vice chairman and staff...
1572
01:32:07,355 --> 01:32:10,857
for your tremendous effort on
behalf of this investigation...
1573
01:32:10,942 --> 01:32:14,486
and your continued dedication
and effort of many years...
1574
01:32:14,570 --> 01:32:17,489
on behalf of Native Americans.
1575
01:32:17,573 --> 01:32:20,158
Mr. Chairman, etched in the
history of our great nation...
1576
01:32:20,243 --> 01:32:25,163
is a long and lamentable chapter about
the exploitation of Native Americans.
1577
01:32:25,248 --> 01:32:29,125
lt began with the sale of Manhattan
and has continued ever since.
1578
01:32:29,210 --> 01:32:31,253
Mr. Abramoff,
1579
01:32:31,337 --> 01:32:35,131
you had a relationship with a number
of native tribes, did you not?
1580
01:32:35,216 --> 01:32:39,344
Is it fair to say you felt these
tribes were gullible and naive?
1581
01:32:39,428 --> 01:32:42,305
Senator, on the basis
of the Fifth Amendment,
1582
01:32:42,390 --> 01:32:45,517
I respectfully decline
to answer the question.
1583
01:32:46,894 --> 01:32:49,437
This tribe was never told...
1584
01:32:49,522 --> 01:32:53,149
about the secret scheme that allowed
Jack Abramoff and Michael Scanlon...
1585
01:32:53,234 --> 01:32:57,654
to take over $40 million for
services dubiously rendered.
1586
01:33:00,783 --> 01:33:03,910
Senator, I respectfully invoke
the privileges as stated.
1587
01:33:03,995 --> 01:33:07,247
You can continue dodging questions, Mr.
Abramoff,
1588
01:33:07,331 --> 01:33:10,625
yet you rip off my
fellow Native Americans,
1589
01:33:10,710 --> 01:33:14,921
you refer to them as
"monkeys" and "troglodytes"?
1590
01:33:15,006 --> 01:33:18,425
Senator, I respectfully invoke
the privileges as stated.
1591
01:33:18,509 --> 01:33:22,554
This is the most extraordinary pattern
of abuse and criminal conduct...
1592
01:33:22,638 --> 01:33:26,099
that has been before this committee the
entire 18 years I have served here.
1593
01:33:26,183 --> 01:33:29,686
Mr. Abramoff, you've proven
yourself to be callous...
1594
01:33:29,770 --> 01:33:33,148
and to only have been...
all about the money.
1595
01:33:34,984 --> 01:33:36,693
Do you not feel any shame?
1596
01:33:36,777 --> 01:33:40,113
Senator, I respectfully invoke
the privileges as stated.
1597
01:33:40,197 --> 01:33:44,242
While these accounts of unscrupulous
men are sadly familiar,
1598
01:33:44,327 --> 01:33:46,494
the tale we hear today is not.
1599
01:33:46,579 --> 01:33:49,581
What sets this tale apart, what
makes it truly extraordinary...
1600
01:33:49,665 --> 01:33:54,252
is the extent and degree of the
apparent exploitation and deceit.
1601
01:33:54,337 --> 01:33:59,341
Mr. Abramoff, have you
nothing to say for yourself?
1602
01:34:02,970 --> 01:34:06,514
Senator, I respectfully
invoke the privileges as...
1603
01:34:15,733 --> 01:34:18,068
No.
1604
01:34:18,152 --> 01:34:19,402
Jack.
1605
01:34:19,487 --> 01:34:22,030
No. I no longer wish to
invoke the privileges.
1606
01:34:22,114 --> 01:34:24,199
- Jack...
- I have something to say, and I'm gonna say it.
1607
01:34:24,283 --> 01:34:25,575
Just be quiet. No, no, no.
1608
01:34:25,660 --> 01:34:28,328
ln fact, if we want to talk
"all about the money,"
1609
01:34:28,412 --> 01:34:31,873
why don't we start with
the four $5,000 checks...
1610
01:34:31,957 --> 01:34:35,669
I personally handed to Senator
Jarvis for his reelection campaign.
1611
01:34:35,753 --> 01:34:38,588
And we know what that money was
all about, don't we, Senator?
1612
01:34:38,673 --> 01:34:40,674
Or how about you,
Senator Burman?
1613
01:34:40,758 --> 01:34:43,718
I donated $30,000...
1614
01:34:43,803 --> 01:34:47,931
to influence your vote to keep
the Marianas open for business.
1615
01:34:48,015 --> 01:34:49,933
Remember?
1616
01:34:50,017 --> 01:34:52,060
And what about you,
Senator McCain?
1617
01:34:52,144 --> 01:34:55,438
You should be sitting in the seat
that I'm sitting in right now.
1618
01:34:55,523 --> 01:34:59,109
For years you've taken tens
of thousands of dollars...
1619
01:34:59,193 --> 01:35:02,028
from lobbyists just like me,
1620
01:35:02,113 --> 01:35:04,864
representing competing
Indian tribes...
1621
01:35:04,949 --> 01:35:09,285
who wanted to open up their own casinos
that would have shut my clients down.
1622
01:35:10,079 --> 01:35:12,205
Sir, you're out of order!
1623
01:35:12,289 --> 01:35:14,916
This man, this son of
a bitch is guilty.
1624
01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:17,001
And if he's allowed to go free,
1625
01:35:17,086 --> 01:35:20,422
then there's something
really wrong going on here.
1626
01:35:20,506 --> 01:35:23,049
- Sir, you are out of order!
- Out of order?
1627
01:35:23,134 --> 01:35:25,552
You're out of order!
You're out of order!
1628
01:35:25,636 --> 01:35:27,387
You're all out of order!
1629
01:35:27,471 --> 01:35:30,890
This whole Senate hearing
is out of order!
1630
01:35:30,975 --> 01:35:32,559
- Seize him!
- Remove that man!
1631
01:35:32,643 --> 01:35:34,561
I've got a whole panel of senators
who love to take money...
1632
01:35:34,645 --> 01:35:37,063
from anybody who's got a
fucking bank account!
1633
01:35:37,148 --> 01:35:39,941
And you call me a fraud?
1634
01:35:40,025 --> 01:35:44,320
You fucking hypocrites!
You fucking hypocrites!
1635
01:35:44,405 --> 01:35:46,448
You ought to stand
for something!
1636
01:35:46,532 --> 01:35:48,324
You should protect the people!
1637
01:35:48,409 --> 01:35:50,076
Hold on! Hold on!
1638
01:35:50,161 --> 01:35:53,788
I have just completed
my opening statement.
1639
01:35:56,333 --> 01:35:57,834
Mr. Abramoff.
1640
01:36:00,337 --> 01:36:02,422
Mr. Abramoff.
1641
01:36:02,506 --> 01:36:04,174
Jack.
1642
01:36:08,220 --> 01:36:12,098
Senator, I respectfully invoke
the privileges as stated.
1643
01:36:12,183 --> 01:36:15,935
And I'd say to you, Mr.
Abramoff, shame on you.
1644
01:36:20,566 --> 01:36:23,610
Who the hell are you trying to look like?
Look, it's Michael Corleone!
1645
01:36:23,694 --> 01:36:26,946
Hey, John Gotti!
You're a thief and a racist bum!
1646
01:36:27,031 --> 01:36:29,824
We pray for you, Jack Abramoff!
1647
01:36:36,624 --> 01:36:38,708
Mr. President, at the
end of the day...
1648
01:36:38,793 --> 01:36:40,710
I was vilified as Satan...
1649
01:36:40,795 --> 01:36:44,672
and ordered to pay restitution of more
than $21 million to the Indian tribes...
1650
01:36:44,757 --> 01:36:47,926
as well as 1.7 million to the I.
R.S.
1651
01:36:48,010 --> 01:36:50,970
Adam Kidan was sentenced
in Florida in March, 2006,
1652
01:36:51,055 --> 01:36:53,765
to six years in prison for
conspiracy and fraud...
1653
01:36:53,849 --> 01:36:57,435
in the purchase of the SunSail
Casinos gambling fleet.
1654
01:36:58,521 --> 01:37:01,022
Bob Ney was sentenced
in January, 2008...
1655
01:37:01,106 --> 01:37:05,777
to two and a half years in prison for
allegedly taking bribes from me.
1656
01:37:05,861 --> 01:37:09,280
In 2005, Anthony Moscatiello
and Anthony Ferrari...
1657
01:37:09,365 --> 01:37:12,283
were charged with the
murder of Gus Boulis.
1658
01:37:12,368 --> 01:37:16,037
In 2006, Tom DeLay stepped
down as majority leader...
1659
01:37:16,121 --> 01:37:20,333
and resigned his seat in Congress after
being indicted by a Texas grand jury.
1660
01:37:20,417 --> 01:37:25,713
In 2009, he appeared on the ABC
hit show Dancing with the Stars.
1661
01:37:25,798 --> 01:37:28,466
My two old buds,
Grover and Ralph...
1662
01:37:28,551 --> 01:37:31,511
they never faced charges
of any kind. Fuck.
1663
01:37:31,595 --> 01:37:35,265
And poor Kevin Ring, well, he's looking
at five years in federal prison.
1664
01:37:37,142 --> 01:37:39,644
As for Mike,
1665
01:37:39,728 --> 01:37:43,314
well, he's still free and has taken up
work as a Rehoboth Beach lifeguard...
1666
01:37:43,399 --> 01:37:47,443
as he continues to stay out of jail
while cooperating with investigators.
1667
01:37:56,161 --> 01:37:58,872
Is President Bush involved, Mr.
Abramoff?
1668
01:37:58,956 --> 01:38:00,874
Mr. Abramoff! Here! Here!
1669
01:38:00,958 --> 01:38:03,710
Is the White House involved?
1670
01:38:08,716 --> 01:38:11,634
It's like we're starring
in our own movie.
1671
01:38:13,429 --> 01:38:16,097
Sorry, honey.
Just trying to lighten the mood.
1672
01:38:20,352 --> 01:38:22,312
Get it, get it, get it.
1673
01:38:47,087 --> 01:38:48,504
Hey.
1674
01:38:50,174 --> 01:38:52,091
Made bail, huh?
1675
01:38:52,176 --> 01:38:54,677
Yeah, so far.
1676
01:38:54,762 --> 01:38:56,596
Looks like.
1677
01:38:56,680 --> 01:38:59,015
Thanks for coming, Jack.
1678
01:38:59,099 --> 01:39:02,352
Pam would be furious with me if she
knew I was even talking to you.
1679
01:39:03,395 --> 01:39:05,313
We're still friends, right?
1680
01:39:13,030 --> 01:39:15,031
"I know it was you, Fredo.
1681
01:39:17,701 --> 01:39:19,577
You broke my heart."
1682
01:39:19,662 --> 01:39:21,746
Right? You broke my heart.
1683
01:39:23,999 --> 01:39:27,043
Or as Harry Truman once said,
1684
01:39:27,127 --> 01:39:30,129
"If you want a friend
in Washington, D.C.,
1685
01:39:31,715 --> 01:39:33,549
get a dog."
1686
01:39:38,806 --> 01:39:40,556
Jack, you have no idea...
1687
01:39:40,641 --> 01:39:44,143
how much pressure they
put on me at Justice.
1688
01:39:46,146 --> 01:39:47,897
I'm sorry, bro.
1689
01:39:48,691 --> 01:39:50,149
That's okay.
1690
01:39:50,234 --> 01:39:52,819
My lawyer tells me you only beat
me to it by about two minutes.
1691
01:39:58,117 --> 01:40:00,451
The student becomes the master.
1692
01:40:02,371 --> 01:40:03,746
Your serve.
1693
01:40:10,254 --> 01:40:12,255
You're a good kid, Mikey.
1694
01:40:15,634 --> 01:40:17,844
I'll miss you.
1695
01:40:17,928 --> 01:40:19,762
I was sentenced to six years...
1696
01:40:19,847 --> 01:40:22,849
at a federal correctional institution
in Cumberland, Maryland.
1697
01:40:22,933 --> 01:40:26,060
Pam and the kids visit
me on weekends.
1698
01:40:26,145 --> 01:40:29,355
I spend the rest of my time
leading a Jewish prayer group...
1699
01:40:29,440 --> 01:40:31,482
Now, guys, you all
have a story, right?
1700
01:40:31,567 --> 01:40:34,193
And teaching a screenwriting
class to my fellow inmates.
1701
01:40:34,278 --> 01:40:36,195
Act Two, a reversal
of that incident.
1702
01:40:36,280 --> 01:40:38,197
That's why if you look
at movies like Psycho...
1703
01:40:38,282 --> 01:40:42,577
Occasionally, I'll find time to throw
darts at a photograph of George W. Bush.
1704
01:40:42,661 --> 01:40:45,204
If it wasn't for all the money
I helped pour into Florida,
1705
01:40:45,289 --> 01:40:47,331
that idiot would never
have left Texas...
1706
01:40:47,416 --> 01:40:50,293
and I think you'd agree
we'd all be better for it.
1707
01:40:50,377 --> 01:40:52,503
And despite the fact that
the Justice Department...
1708
01:40:52,588 --> 01:40:54,797
recommended my sentence be
reduced by two years...
1709
01:40:54,882 --> 01:40:57,467
for fully cooperating
with investigators,
1710
01:40:59,303 --> 01:41:02,055
on his last day in office...
1711
01:41:03,515 --> 01:41:06,017
Bush refused to
even consider it.
1712
01:41:10,606 --> 01:41:12,273
You see, to this day...
1713
01:41:12,357 --> 01:41:15,026
I remain the Republicans'
worst nightmare.
1714
01:41:15,110 --> 01:41:18,029
Not because I'm an icon to an era
most people would prefer to forget,
1715
01:41:18,113 --> 01:41:21,657
but because once
I'm out of here...
1716
01:41:21,742 --> 01:41:23,868
God has given me a new mission...
1717
01:41:23,952 --> 01:41:27,538
to remind the world what a bunch
of hypocrites they all are.
1718
01:41:27,623 --> 01:41:30,625
You see, Mr. President, it's
time to think out of the box.
1719
01:41:31,668 --> 01:41:33,669
- I know it's a moon shot,
- Thank you.
1720
01:41:33,754 --> 01:41:36,839
but in writing you this letter
to a former president...
1721
01:41:36,924 --> 01:41:39,133
who understands very well
how the game is played,
1722
01:41:39,218 --> 01:41:42,053
I hope you might see
my point of view...
1723
01:41:42,137 --> 01:41:44,972
and consider making an appeal
to the right Democrats...
1724
01:41:45,057 --> 01:41:47,892
who might find it
useful to help me...
1725
01:41:47,976 --> 01:41:50,394
so in turn I can
help all of you.
1726
01:41:50,479 --> 01:41:53,356
Time's up, Jack. Why?
1727
01:41:54,358 --> 01:41:57,110
Because my name
is Jack Abramoff,
1728
01:41:57,194 --> 01:41:59,403
and I work out every day.
1729
01:44:35,811 --> 01:44:38,479
Never before has an individual...
1730
01:44:38,563 --> 01:44:41,607
who has been steadfast
to our principles...
1731
01:44:41,692 --> 01:44:45,027
risen as high as Tom DeLay.
1732
01:44:45,112 --> 01:44:48,489
Tom DeLay is the most effective...
1733
01:44:48,573 --> 01:44:51,450
He was the most effective whip
in the House of Representatives,
1734
01:44:51,535 --> 01:44:53,953
and I would say he is the most
effective majority leader.
1735
01:44:54,037 --> 01:44:57,456
And thank God Tom DeLay is the
majority leader in the House.
1736
01:44:57,541 --> 01:44:59,959
Hear! Hear!
1737
01:45:09,219 --> 01:45:12,471
I'll just, uh... just add one
more... one more piece to it,
1738
01:45:12,556 --> 01:45:16,475
'cause I think, uh, w...we really
need to hear from Mr. DeLay.
1739
01:45:16,560 --> 01:45:20,771
But Tom DeLay is who all of us
want to be when we grow up.
1740
01:45:20,856 --> 01:45:24,150
- Hear! Hear!
- Congressman DeLay.146377
