All language subtitles for Wiseguy S01 E11 Last Rites for Lucci 1080p AC3 BluRay x264 (1)

- [Narrator] Tonight on Wiseguy.

- I took down a guy,

and I could hardly hear
myself think about him

because of 30 pieces of
silver rattling around

in my pocket.

You know you can hear all
the confessions you want,

and you could say
mass five times a day,

but there's real life
and death going on

outside of these walls Pete.

And if you don't deal with
that you're just using

the church as a place to hide.

- What I tell you there's
another hit going down?

You'll let me go?

- Who's going south?

- A priest over in Flatbush.

You'll let me go?

- What's his name?

- Father Terranova.

(orchestral music)

(suspenseful music)

- Hey I thought you
were gonna grab a snooze

in the rectory.

- I couldn't sleep.

- Never thought I'd
hear you say that.

I remember you catching
Zs on the rollercoaster

in Coney Island.

- Maybe gotta try that again,

nothing else seems
to work these days.

- Well we do have a time
tested cure for insomnia.

- Well forget about it
Pete, you're not getting me

in the booth.

- It'll only hurt for a minute.

You have a brother in the
trade, you get the family right

on absolution.

- Pete I do wanna talk to you,

but it's gonna be face to face.

I don't want to do it
through the screen.

- Well business is light
today, the track must be open.

Give me an hour, we
can talk at mom's?

- Alright, I'll see you there.

- Okay.

- Hey Nick?

Hey Nick Lucci
how you doing man?

- You never get any
older Vinny you're like

a picture of Delorean Gray.

- What's Connie doing?

- She never changes, we
need a new car, get a raise,

I want a mink.

Puts on 10 pounds a
year like clockwork.

- I love it.

- Word is you done
real good for yourself,

big shot in Atlantic City.

- No I just worked
there Nick, that's all.

- Correct me if I'm wrong,
but this ain't one of them

knockoffs you get
on the boulevard.

Your mouth is down you can
fill every tooth in Brooklyn.

- It runs fast anyway.

Hey you know I miss hanging
out like we used to.

- You notice any of
the civic improvements?

Vito got a new oven
in his pizzeria,

and last month they
cleaned the pigeon poon

off the statue of
(foreign language).

Surprised you come back
to the old neighborhood.

- It's home Nicky.

It's always gonna be home.

So where you working
at these days?

- I'm still in Borough Hall,

sorting mail for
the wing tippers.

- Oh I can remember you
talking about leaving there

10 years ago.

- Yeah well I don't
like to act on a whim.

I get a cheque every week,
few beers on Friday after,

that's when I'm happy.

I'm not aiming
high anymore Vinny.

Remember Philly Weinstein?

- Yeah sure.

- Yeah he's still
down at the hall too.

(mumbles) that's us.

I gotta go.

- Why don't we get together
for a few beers later on?

- Of all the guys
we ever hung with,

I always had you
pegged the winner.

I'm real proud of you Vinny,
you take care of yourself.

(orchestral music)

- Father Pete I want
the last rights.

- Nick what,

how long have you been ill?

- There's a contract out on me.

Could be tomorrow
or the next day.

I could walk out here
right now and get whacked.

- What are you talking about?

- Correct me if I'm
wrong, but in the 30 years

that we know each other,
have you ever heard of me

making a smart move?

Okay so we accept the fact
I'm no great intellect.

Borough Hall three weeks ago,

I'm sorting mail and a
piece of paper falls out

of an envelope that's supposed
to go to Frank Donovan.

- The council member?

- Himself.

Now this paper, which
was never intended

for public consummation
is proof positive

he's taking kickbacks

from the new garbage
collection contract.

I think it's worth
gold this paper.

So I go see Donovan and I
offer to sell it back to him

for a small commission.

- Oh Nicky.

- Yeah it doesn't go too good.

He comes on strong,
so I tell him,

I'll give him back
the paper for free,

we'll forget the whole thing.

Then I hear this
buzz going around

that he's planning on drilling
me a new place to breed.

So being as I won't
see a priest again,

I'd like the rights.

- You've gotta call the police.

- And do what?

Tell him I was trying to
shake down a public official?

- Then run, try to get away,

you've got to do something,

you can't just sit and wait
for it, that's suicide.

That's a mortal sin.

- I'm just a rotten businessman.

And if that's a sin then
hell must be all full up.

- I can't anoint you Nick.

Last rights can only
be given to the sick.

- Hey I'm dead, ain't
that sick enough?

Okay if it's a
rule, it's a rule.

But I want you to
promise me this.

When it all goes down, I want
you to keep it under your hat

that I wasn't kosher because
Connie and Nick junior

still gotta live in
this neighborhood.

I know I wasn't at mass much,

I hope you didn't
take it personal.

You pray for me Father Pete.

(orchestral music)

How long's mom
supposed to be gone?

- 'Till they operate on
Aunt Marie's (mumbles).

Uncle Joe can't boil water so.

- I would have figured
mom would have gotten

rid of this stuff by now.

- Well she figures she holds
onto it maybe you'll move back.

You know, when I think
about all the time

I spent building my models.

- You'd build 'em
and I'd smash 'em.

Kinda like an assembly
line in reverse.

You shoulda knocked
me out for that.

- That's what pop used to say.

But you were little, you
didn't know any better.

- I had the both of you conned.

I can remember being up all
night with you in this room.

They thought we were asleep.

And we'd argue over who's
better, maze or mantle.

- Yeah I was wondering if
my skin would ever clear up.

- Yeah and if Jana
(mumbles) wore falsies.

(laughing)

Yeah my whole life,
I never felt safer

than when I was in this room.

I'm more sure which
end of things was up.

(orchestral music)

Not so sure about that anymore.

It's almost the same
dream every night.

I'm chasing a part of myself

with the silk suits and
the (mumbles) strut.

And I catch 'em, and I
watch 'em take the fall.

And he's gone, finished.

But then I wake up,
and he's still in here,

I can't get rid of him.

Have you talked to
anybody about this?

Your supervisor maybe?

- Yeah Frank's worried
about my identity confusion.

Which is a four dollar
term for coming unglued.

So I figured a
few days on and on

the old neighborhood
would help me decompress,

which is another four
dollar term for cooling out.

- Do you think you are?

- What?

- Coming unglued?

- I don't know, when you're
in the training program,

they pitch you a
lot of crap about

the tough moments you're
gonna have to face.

But they never mention one
word about the toughest moment.

That's when you
gotta look in the eye

of the god you've just betrayed.

- Betrayal's a
tough word, Vinny.

- You can call it
whatever you want.

- Would he have
been loyal to you?

- He was.

- What he was was a gangster.

- He trusted me.

He protected me from the
snakes that were trying

to eat me alive.

And while he was doing
that I was trying to find

a way to stick it in his gut.

And I did, I found it.

Seeing Nick Lucci today,
reminded me of the way

that we grew up.

Knowing the good guys
from the bad guys.

It was like on gun smoke
you know it was easy.

You always knew which side
of the fence you were on.

- You're a good guy Vinny.

I know this because
you're my brother,

and because you got a badge.

- The badge doesn't
mean squat Pete,

that's what I'm
trying to tell you.

You know you live with
these guys that are supposed

to be the black hats,

and you realize that they're
not that much different

from us.

They worry about
putting on weight.

They take the
garbage out at night.

They love their kids.

- No they are different
from us Vinny,

they don't even come close.

Don't you remember
what dad used to say.

You lie with dogs, you
wake up with fleas.

- You don't have any idea
what I'm talking about do you?

I guess there's no
reason why you should.

Everything's laid out all
nice and neat for you.

You got the black over here,
and the white over here.

And it's all nice and
simple because that's what

is says in the book.

- Let me lay a fast fact
on you little brother.

The only thing black
and white in my life

is this uniform.

But don't you think I get a rush

when a girl in a
halter top walks by?

I'm not supposed to, but I do.

And when I tell a
father and mother

that their child's death is
part of God's merciful plan,

don't you think just a
little piece of that catches

in my throat?

Or suppose some guy
finds out about some scam

going down at Borough Hall.

He says they're gonna kill
him 'cause he found out.

A man's life is on the line,
there's nothing you can do?

Now you tell me where the black
and white is there, Vinny.

I wish to God you could.

- Why can't you do
anything about it?

- What?

- If a guy's life
is on the line,

why can't you do
anything about it?

- Hypothetical is a
hypothetical situation.

- No no no wait a minute,
what is this, a confession,

is that why you're
telling me this?

- No confession, no
guy, leave it alone.

- Pete, if there's a sword
hanging over some guy,

and you let him cut the
string it ain't right.

- There is no one Vinny.

- Pete, I'm your brother.

- And I'm a priest.

Maybe you're right.

Maybe everything in my life
is all black and white.

- [Vinny] Listen I
know it's late, but.

- Don't worry about it Vinny,
I'm cranky if I get more than

two hours a night anyway.

Listen, you sound like
you've been on intimate terms

with some of those
friendly fermented grains.

- Listen I gotta see McPike
first thing in the morning.

- Frank's in Atlantic City,
that's a three hour drive.

- Well I gotta see
him, right after dawn.

- Are you okay son?

- Just get him up here.

- [Man] You got it pal.

- I thought we understood the
reason I sent you back home.

- Yeah to decompress,
yeah I know all about it.

- No you don't, you wouldn't
have called the lifeguard

at four o'clock in the morning,

I wouldn't have driven three
hours from Atlantic City,

and most importantly I
wouldn't be here right now.

- Look I want you to check
out who's skimming what

down at Borough Hall.

I want to find out who's
getting rich over there.

- Oh you got me confused with
somebody who gives a dam.

- I'm serious Frank.

- Oh so am I, political
corruption in your
old neighborhood

is a local matter.

It does not concern the OCD.

- Somebody's life is at stake,
doesn't that concern us?

- Depends on who's it is.

- You know I thought our job
was to protect the good guys

and bring down the bad guys.

- There are bad guys
who are our business,

and there are bad
guys who aren't.

- Yeah well I'm making
these guys my business.

Now I'm a cop, and the
last time I read the manual

that's what it said
was my responsibility.

- Your responsibility
is defined by me.

It does not include
neighborhood squabbles,

and it certainly
doesn't include crawling

into a fifth every night.

When's the last time you
got a good night's sleep?

I'm not just flapping
my lips here.

- Frank I'm okay.

- The hell you are.

(suspenseful music)

The OCB has a program
for guys who are under.

You can talk to a psychologist
and get yourself straight.

- Therapy group Frank?

You want me to have
my head shrunk.

- It is a support group, and
I would rather have your head

shrunk than cut off and
sent back to me in a box.

- I'm just trying to do my job.

- You don't know what
the hell your job is

the shape you're in.

Alright I'll call you in
and I'll give you the time

the group meets.

- Frank this guy could
get wasted any minute.

- This is not a request
Terranova, it is an order.

You get into that group,
I'm gonna make sure

you spend the rest of your
career running fingerprints

in some FBI basement.

- Let me out, this son of a.

(suspenseful music)

- So you hit her, so what?

Broad stays with you long
enough she's gotta expect it.

- I didn't just hit her, I
smashed my wife's face in.

She's gonna be eating through
a straw for three months.

- [Man] You must have
had a good reason.

- Yeah, she wanted a cough drop.

- You've been working undercover
narcotics for how long

at this point?

- 16 months.

And I knew, I knew
I've been made.

- How did you know?

- I knew.

I was down in the rat holes
with those nickel bag zombies

and I knew they were just
waiting for the right time.

- I've seen 'em cut open
a guy from here to here.

So he dies with his
own guts in his hands

trying to stuff 'em back in.

And that night I got
home, and my wife,

she opens her purse
to get the cough drop.

Thought she was
going for a blade.

All of a sudden I'm
standing over her,

she's got blood on her
face, on the floor.

Her teeth are--

I didn't mean to do it.

Honest to god, I
didn't mean to do it.

- Joe you were overstressed,
under tremendous pressure,

dealing with a constant threat.

It was that threat that you
were striking out against,

not your wife.

But following that incident,
you were pulled from the field?

- I wasn't pulled.

I don't care what it
says on the report.

I told them they could
take the whole program,

they could stick it.

I told them I was
gonna write a book.

Oh you should have seen him
scramble after I said that.

Joe what can we do for you?

Some time off?

A desk job?

What do you want Joe?

We'll take care of you.

- That's supervisors for you.

You think they got a
clue what it's like

being on the line everyday?

Put 'em out there you
see a bunch of grown men

standing around warm puddles.

- You're living in
your own house now.

You're driving your own car.

You are not a drug dealer.

You are federal
agent Joe Cardona.

That other world is
part of the past.

We have to just let it go.

- Oh for crying out loud, it's
a game we're playing here.

It's over when you take off the
uniform and hit the showers.

If a guy can't handle it,

it just means they
picked the wrong guy

for the assignment.

Not that that'd be anything new.

- Would you like to
go with that Mike?

- I'd like to go for a beer.

Anybody up for it?

- You had any experiences
like Joe's, Vinny?

- No.

- What were your reasons
for joining the group?

- Well to tell you the truth,

my field supervisor
volunteered me for it.

- SOP, this guy winds up
blowing away a restaurant

'cause the cook
burned his toast,

his supervisor can say,
hey I put him in the group,

I did my job.

For instance pal, you
know what I'm saying.

- That's kind of cynical Mike.

- Only if you've never been
out in the real world, Carol.

- You been experiencing
any anxieties?

- No not really.

- Sleep disturbances?

- Nothing I can't handle.

- It's about time.

Somebody who realizes it's
every man for himself.

- So Mike you're on
active now or what?

- I just wrapped up a
racketeering case in Manhattan.

- Oh yeah?

- Hey Vinny, how
about a night cap.

- No thanks man, I'm still
hungover from the drinking

I did last night.

Guy's had it rough?

- Yeah well nobody said it was
gonna be a walk in the park.

- Listen, you know anything
about the dirty laundering

going on here in the Borough?

- Such as?

- Some guy in office,
I don't know who,

but he may have put a
contract to keep a scam

he was running on the QT.

- I got a few friends,
I'll nose around for you,

see what I can find.

- Thanks Mike.

- Hey, it's the job right?

- Yeah, yeah that's the job.

See you later.

(guitar music)

- Mikey, so nice last night.

Want lasagna for supper?

- Sure.

- Where's my money?

- That'll keep you well
for a couple of days.

Listen Freddy, anybody
asks, I'm out of the house.

I don't want anybody coming by

and scaring Connie
in the kitchen.

- Sure, you're gonna love
the place I got for you.

Fourth floor walk up in Canarcy.

My own mother was on the
dodge I'd stick her there.

- Yeah would you make
her pay for it too?

- [Man] In this berg every
elected official has either

been indicted or is about to be.

- Yeah these are the
guys who are supposed

to be keeping the public trust.

- What they're keeping
is the public's dough.

- Morning.

- How you doing, I'll
just have a coffee please.

- Sorry, boss says
that's all there is.

He didn't want to get sued,
you crack up your car.

- Tell him I'll crack up his
head if he don't keep pouring.

- Mike take it easy will you?

- I hate that, I
really hate that.

I'm not causing a
public nuisance here.

If I want a drink, no jerk
in an apron's gonna stop me.

- Relax, relax.

- Alright I talked to a
friend of mine, assistant DA.

He says there's a couple
guys on the council

they really been trying to nail.

Ralfi Garcia and Frank Donovan.

- You think either of
them would be the type

to ice a guy if he was
about to blow the whistle?

- Let me put it this way, yeah.

- Does your friend know
anything about a contract?

Well I got a friend
at Borough Hall,

maybe he heard something.

- Forget about it, Borough
Hall's like an institution

for the handicap, they're
all deaf dumb and blind.

You can't expect them--

- I understand there
was some trouble.

- There's no trouble,
everything's fine.

- This bum grabbed my waitress.

- Frank what are you doing?

Come on let's get out of here.

- Let go.

- I'm calling the cops.

- I am a cop, nosebleed.

Hey let go of me Vinny.

There's gonna be units
rolling here any second.

- That guy called me a
bum, I don't like that.

It's degrading.

- Yeah alright you didn't
have to belt him like that.

- What you on his side too?

- No I'm not on his side--

- I thought we see things
the same, you and me,

maybe now I'm not so sure,
maybe you're just like everybody

else who thinks up--

- Why don't people keep
their dogs on leashes?

They run out on the
street like that.

Mike you alright?

- I had a dog like that once.

- Come on man let's go.

(orchestral music)

Excuse me.

- Yeah pal what can,

Vinny?

- Yeah.

- It's me, Philly Weinstein.

Come here, yeah.

- Hey Philly I didn't
even recognize you.

- Maybe that's 'cause I
been riding with my top down

these days.

- How you been?

- Great come on in.

- So Philly I've been
looking for Nicky.

You seen him around anywhere?

- No he took the day off.

Matter of fact he took
the last couple days.

Either he's been sick or
his pony's been running

faster than usual.

- Listen Philly, you know
anything about Ralfi Garcia?

- What's to know,
he's the (mumbles).

They come to him
with the sob stories,

you know not enough
water or too many rats,

that kind of thing.

And once they come across
with a little smear

he'll tell him everything
will be taken care of.

Which of course it never is.

I gotta go by Nicky's
house and drop this off.

They came for him this morning.

You want me to
give him a message?

- No it's alright, I'll
catch up with him later.

Listen I hear the DA's
after Frank Donovan

with (mumbles), you know
anything about that?

- I don't know anything
about Frank Donovan.

Maybe other guys do but not me.

Vinny I would say it
was great seeing you,

I gotta meet a guy for lunch,

take care of yourself,
say hi to Pete yeah?

- Alright.

(explosion)

(suspenseful music)

- Philly Weinstein's dead?

- Yeah, they're picking
up pieces of him

all over (mumbles) Avenue.

He was trying to be a
nice guy and deliver

a package to Lucci.

Turned out to be a pound
and a half of dynamite.

- God rest him.

- Is that all you're gonna say?

- We have to leave
this in God's hands.

- Yeah but he just let
Philly slip right through

his fingers.

I called Nick's house
and Connie's hysterical

because he left her a note
saying he'd never see her again.

Now I know you know there's
a contract on him Pete.

I want you tell me
who put it there.

- The sanctity of the
confessional is absolute.

You know that as well as I do.

It's the cornerstone
of the church, Vinny.

- You sure it's the church
you're trying to protect?

- What's that supposed to mean.

- You know you can hear all
the confessions you want.

And you can say mass
five times a day.

But there's real life and
death going on outside

of these walls Pete.

And if you don't deal with
that you're just using

the church as a place to hide.

- Where are you going?

- To find Nicky, before he
slips through his fingers too.

(flute music)

- You wanna know the
only part of this job

that's worth a dam.

It's seeing the look on a
guy's face when you nail him

to the wall.

I'm talking about a guy
who really trusted you.

He opened himself up to
you, told you everything

about his operation.

You and him were like brothers.

And then bam you stick
that gun in his face

and say federal officer.

(laughing)

And he gets this
look on his face

that is so comical.

(laughing)

I burst out laughing more
times than I can count.

- There's nothing
funny about it Mike.

- Oh come on man it's a riot.

- No it's not.

I'm sorry.

I took down a guy, black hat,

at least he was supposed to be.

I could hardly hear
myself think about him

because of 30 pieces of
silver rattling around

in my pocket.

And I'm supposed
to be a white hat.

- Life ain't a hat store pal.

- I just feel that
all the values

that I was brought
up to believe in

have been turned
completely upside down.

I turned friendship and
loyalty into an obscene joke.

I feel like a slime.

- This Mr. Lucci
you're trying to find,

is he a good guy, a white hat?

- Yeah he's a good guy.

- Well could it be that
trying to find him,

you're trying to prove
to yourself something?

- What do you mean that
I'm a good guy too?

- [Woman] Well that's possible.

You know in the dream
you told us about--

- Could be, maybe,
that's possible.

Why don't you just come
out and say what you think.

- Because I'm more
interested in what you think.

- Yeah well I think this
talking about dreams

is a truckload of crap.

- Well you're the
only one in the group

who hasn't talked
about his dreams.

- I don't have 'em.

- We all have them.

Sometimes if they're disturbing
we try to sublimate--

- Okay okay fine,
you want a dream?

I got this guy cornered,
I'm looking down the barrel

right at his head, only I
see he's got a piece too.

So we got a Mexican standoff.

But I figure I can take him
with one shot so I pull.

Only what happens.

The bullet falls out of my
barrel, plop on the floor.

He walks up to me and
puts the gun in my mouth.

And just as he pulls I wake up.

Happy now?

- I've had the same dream.

- Oh great.

So, explain it to me doctor.

- Often that dream is rooted
in feelings of helplessness

to control the world around you.

An inability to respond
to your fellow officers,

social situations.

- Social situations?

Now what does that mean?

- What do you think it means?

- Women, you're saying I
don't respond to women?

You ask around, sweetheart.

- Look let's talk--

- You ask around.

Or better yet, do yourself
a favor some night

and drop over.

We'll see who responds to what.

- You want me to go get him?

- No he's left the group
three times before.

What are you feeling Vinny?

- I'm worried about the guy,
I think he's a lit fuse.

- Well he has to be willing
to acknowledge that,

and so far he hasn't.

About you and Mr. Lucci.

- I don't know if finding
him will make me more sure

of myself.

But I know if I don't
I'll be sure about Nicky.

He's gonna end up dead.

(orchestral music)

- It would be highly
unethical of me

to reveal the bids of
the other contractors

at this point in time.

Call me when you get home.

- I'm sorry Mr. Donovan,
he wouldn't wait

until you were off the phone.

- I'll talk to you later,
kiss my daughter for me.

- Father Pete, it's
grand to see you.

- I know what happened
to Philly Weinstein,

and I know you're
responsible for it.

I can't prove you
had him killed.

You'll be judged for that
in the world to come.

But if anybody else gets hurt,

I'm going to make sure your
judgment comes for that

in this world too.

(rock music)

- You ever wipe this
bar down or what?

- Twice a month like clockwork.

- Listen I'm looking for
a guy named Nick Lucci,

you ever hear of him?

- Name don't ring a bell,

but then names ain't
my strong suit.

Now on faces I'm a wiz.

- Yeah thanks for nothing.

- Another one?

- Hey pally.

- What do you want?

- Got what you want, I
know where Nick Lucci's at.

- So give it up.

- That's privileged information
that'll cost you see.

- Where is he?

- Come on man don't get rough.

Okay, okay forget the
100 I'll take a 20,

20 lousy bucks come on.

Man I got a good will.

- Alright.

- I like it I knew
we could do business.

He's over in Canarsty
716 (mumbles) Street

fourth floor in the back.

Honest man, I
wouldn't lie to you.

Hey when you find him
don't tell him it was me,

he's a friend of mine
you know what I mean?

- You're getting pretty big.

Pretty soon they're gonna
race you at Belmont.

(suspenseful music)

How'd you find me Lou?

- Your old pal,
Freddy, surprise.

- Well we might as well
get this over with.

You mind if I sit?

- It's your place.

How come you didn't hop a plane?

- Why put off the inexorable?

I wanted my wife to get
the insurance money quick.

- It's nice of you.

So long Nicky.

- I wouldn't do
that if I were you.

- Vinny, hey hold on
don't shoot, who are you?

- Let's just say I'm a
guy with a gun on you.

- We can talk about this.

Maybe we can work out a trade.

- You got nothing I want.

I got 20 grand stashed.

- Not interested.

- I could make it 30.

Who are you?

You a neighborhood guy?

You a cop?

What if I tell you there's
another hit going down,

you let me go?

I'll give you the whole story.

- Who and when?

- Anytime, could be.

You'll let me go?

I'll tell you who's
getting whacked.

- You believe him
Vinny you're crazy?

- No no it's alright,
it's alright.

Alright you got a deal.

Who's going south?

A priest over in Flatbush,

Bruno's gonna get him in
his booth during confession

so he won't know what's coming.

- Who is he, what's his name?

- Father Terranova.

(suspenseful music)

- You made the deal
with him, I didn't.

(busy tone)

- Dammit, still
busy at the church.

- You got a car don't you?

- It's around the corner.

- Come on let's get out Pete.

- Yes Mrs. Johnfreidel,

you mentioned the
size of the incision

several times.

- I'm going to confession.

- He's just passing my desk.

Mrs. Johnfreidel.

- Again?

Yes Mrs. Johnfreidel, it's
nice to hear your voice.

Yes Mrs. Johnfreidel I'm sorry
I haven't been by to visit.

This afternoon, yes,
I'll bring cannolis,

but right now I've got
to hear confessions.

This afternoon at three
o'clock, God bless you too

Mrs. Johnfriedel.

So where are you going
to be working next week?

- You should have let that
guy blow my brains out Vinny.

Philly's dead 'cause of me,
how am I supposed to look

at myself in the mirror?

- About as easily as
I will if we don't

get to Pete in time.

- How come?

- 'Cause I was stupid.

I told Pete he was using
the church to hide from

the real world, I guess
now he's trying to prove

that he isn't.

Listen Nicky, Pete didn't
tell me about your confession.

I tried to make him
talk and he wouldn't.

I just thought you
ought to know that.

(suspenseful music)

Now where's this paper
you got on Donovan?

- I got a strong box
out in the garage.

You know I never thought it
would come to this Vinny.

All my life I've
seen guys get ahead.

I just wanted to cash in.

I just wanted to get something
for Connie and the kid

that I couldn't get before.

Now Philly's dead and poor
Pete in trouble I don't know--

- Hey Nicky, the only person
you can blame for all of this

is Frank Donovan.

Now we're gonna get that paper

and we're gonna
nail him with it.

Now what time does Pete
start hearing confessions?

- 10 minutes ago.

- Come on move that
heap would yeah?

(honking)

(suspenseful music)

(honking)

- Father and his son and
the holy spirit, amen.

We can begin now.

- Bless me father
for I have sinned.

It has been six weeks
since my last confession.

- Visit the fifth
station of the cross.

Say one Hail Mary and
perform an act of charity

before the week is out.

- Thank you father, oh my
god you're hardly sorry

for having offended the
united test all my sins

because I treat the laws
of heaven in pains ale.

- Go in peace.

In the name of the father

and of the son and of
the holy spirit amen.

(suspenseful music)

We can begin now.

There's no need to be hesitant.

If you forgot now to go
to confession I can help.

Let him carry some of
the burden for you.

The lord is willing
to forgive anyone

who's heart is filled
with sincere contrition.

(yells)

- Pete you alright?

- What's going on?

- If that's Bruno I
hate to see his sister.

Who do you think it is?

- Nick thank god you're alive.

- Well I could say the
same for you father.

(orchestral music)

- Listen I wanted to
tell you that I'm sorry

about what I said to
you the other night.

You know about you
having it easy.

I wouldn't want to have to
make the judgemental calls

that you do.

- Look we both have
tough ones to make.

When does the Donovan
case go to grand jury?

- Next week.

Last night was the first night
I had a solid eight hours

in I don't know how long.

- No more dreams?

- No.

- So you're feeling better
about the black hats

and the white hats.

- Hey Pete, life
ain't a hat store.

- Where did you come
up with that Jim?

- Some guy at the
group, got a meeting

in about a half hour.

- You know I don't mean to
question the value of therapy,

but I still say it would
only hurt for a minute

if you went to confession.

- Yeah.

How about a drink?

- Never again.

- Okay.

Hi Carol.

- Hi.

- Sorry I'm late but the
traffic was all backed up.

Where's Mike didn't he show up?

- We just heard
from his supervisor.

Mike killed himself last night.
