All language subtitles for Rage_of_Angels_(1983)__E04

Oh, I will.

Senior Hola, you've not been out of this room since yesterday.

Well, should I be?

There will be no change in the boy for quite a while. I'll be with him all the time.

Why not take a nap?

I'll walk perhaps.

You'll feel better. Go on now.

I can't deny Adam.

The doctor says he wakes up within 24 hours if he comes out of the coma.

The doctors have lost.

And Joshua can't help them.

It all seems incredible.

Strange it takes my kid for a joyride and my vaunted secret service lets it happen.

If anyone wants to blame it's me.

If I had accepted Joshua, if I had stood at the top of the Capitol stairs and said,

that's my kid.

That's my kid.

Something else would have happened.

You look at your sausage and get some sleep. I'll call you in a minute if there's any moves.

I'm right. I'm staying in my friends.

Where you going?

Joshua's room. Maybe he'll know his mom's there.

I'm going to get some more.

I'm going to get some more.

I'm going to get some more.

What about?

How about a nice bourbon and water?

Echo, a real American drink.

I'm going to get some of that grape crap. Although I'm told that we own 200 acres of the best vineyards in Italy.

I'll join you.

My late husband left me the vineyards on the shipping lines and 200 pounds of dust

covering about 600 priceless paintings.

A little priceless, but god awful. Plus almost 100 real relatives, mostly poor, and about 200 others, mostly phony.

How's the kid?

Not good.

You told me on the phone he had a chance.

Italian doctors still believe in happy endings.

I've said it to my late husband on my casey.

Your husband was reported to be a great man.

Whoever reported that was on the take.

Oh, he was all right, I suppose.

He didn't have a happy ending. Echo, who does? Nobody dies well.

But poor Marquesy.

He seemed so surprised to have to shove off.

I think that he figured God owed him over time.

God did reward him on earth. He allowed him to find you, Marquesy.

Well, it took me off the streets of New Orleans.

I turned him on like he was never turned on before.

Well, how's the boy's mother doing? She must be a mess.

She's holding up.

She sounds like a father. He was always bearing up well.

God, he was well behaved.

It was almost eerie.

So what you think, Boise?

I haven't been able to get a straight story.

All the years I've employed people like you.

Is that kid really adopted?

I was able to grab a look at some documents. I don't think so.

But you did have an affair with that politician.

He's the vice president now.

Is he the father?

No, he's not the father. I've heard him talk.

How can you tell?

He's too earnest to make babies.

He has a daughter?

His wife has a daughter.

Warner was probably being tall at the time.

You're very suspicious of people, aren't you?

Why not? Most of them are here on a path.

Did Warner give her any money?

I don't believe she asked for money.

Water pear.

A thoroughly married politician.

And a vulnerable wounded romantic.

Mama Mia.

Well, Boise, you've done a very thorough job and you haven't asked any embecilic questions.

They'll feed you downstairs.

If you want to get them a tip, they won't object.

What do you want now?

You want to play some more games with my son?

You want to be carried out of here and put in your latest charity?

Go ahead. He won't give you any trouble.

You see, Josh was sleeping.

I only gave the boy a ride. He admired my car.

We're friends.

You broke into my life.

You deliberately gave Josh with the impression that you and I are friends.

That we're family. Family, you make the word obscene.

And you. Who gave you the authority to make judgments on my family?

I knew your brother, remember.

Oh, I knew your brother too well.

Now you get out of here.

And you stay away, stay away from what's left of my family.

It's not over.

If the boy lives, we all start again.

If he doesn't, that's very sad. But nothing changes.

You still owe us.

Oh, you?

You!

Go on!

Got it!

Business is business.

Personal business is personal business.

Personal business is personal business.

At least it's nicer out here.

Even for a hospital. This one is ghastly.

All that crippled shrubbery in the halls.

All those nurses and doctors murmuring.

Murmuring.

If I was a patient here, I'd spend all my time screeching.

What'd you say?

I was bad enough to die, but I'd have to check out not knowing what anything else was.

I'd have to check out my family.

I'd have to check out my family.

I was bad enough to die, but I'd have to check out not knowing what anybody is saying.

You're quite beautiful.

You're a wreck, but you're quite beautiful.

If you'll excuse me, please.

My name is Alabrandely.

Marquesa Alabrande.

I live in Tuscany.

How about you drink?

There must be a cafe around here.

There's always a cafe in your hospitals.

Nurses, doctors, students, they could never make it without booze and bad food.

You'll excuse me.

I'm your mother for God's sakes.

Well, don't look so shocked.

Most of us have had mothers at one time or another.

It's all right, kid. I don't need money.

But you can't buy me a drink.

And hate me later?

So, Mommy, here we are.

Goodness, it's been a long time.

Let's see.

You left me in the crib with enough graham crackers for 25 years and enough love for 20 seconds.

You know, it's ridiculous. A place like this does not have bourbon.

I talk to the boy's doctor.

Why?

You're really going to make this around for a time.

What do you want?

I thought I could help with the hospital.

There are things like that.

I can manage.

How did you know about me and the accident?

I'm outrageously wealthy.

I can afford to have people look in on you from time to time.

Anyone I know?

Probably.

Daddy died, you know.

I know.

He was a very good man.

Why did you break his heart?

I did you follow the biggest favor I ever did.

I left him.

Too lazy.

I did leave him you.

Even easier.

Your dad was a real class act.

And he bored the hell out of me.

You're not fit to...

How the hell do you know what I was fit for?

Listen, kid, I was a pretty joyous man.

What the hell was his name?

Dad.

I always thought that happened.

It was a funny name.

Go to hell.

Been there.

Didn't like it left.

Just what are you?

I'll work in girl.

Who got lucky?

It's too you felt you wanted some contact.

I wanted to keep an eye on you, believe me, that's all.

My, you're beautiful.

I mean, you dress like you're sorry about everything, but...

You are beautiful.

God, say, didn't you even hear a baby crying?

And all that dirty linen you tossed out?

I gave you to your father, who was a nice man, and raised you well.

I'll be going home tonight.

I'll have my number and address at your hotel, just in case.

You made me.

You look like me, you know.

Your father was a nice man, but not very good looking.

I fell out of the closet.

He only had coffee.

You adopted a kid, right?

I was a little bit old.

You adopted a kid, right?

You adopted your own kid.

You didn't want to disclose the name of the father?

Right.

Don't really blame you.

Somebody could get killed with information like that.

Sure.

CHKEY

Yes?

Yes, Jennifer.

Josh.

Yes?

Yes, Jennifer.

Josh, it was back.

Thanks, pal.

Thanks for hanging around.

It'd be awfully stupid without you.

Yes.

Yes, I understand.

How sweet.

No, nothing more right now.

How good of you to call.

How really good.

Priscilla, if there was one person,

one person who never let you sleep a full night,

never let you breathe easy,

never let you enjoy even a smattering of your life.

If there was one person whose very life denies yours,

what would you do?

Darling, it depends on who.

You're my closest friend, you must believe that.

But darling, if there were one person in the world,

I wouldn't tell it would be you.

Darling, at least tell me if it's a man or a woman.

Suppose it's a man.

I'd probably kill him.

And if it was a woman?

I'd definitely kill her.

See more, you amaze me.

You're not the everyday tourist.

Not an ordinary anything.

Looked interesting.

Got the sick of reading books about restaurants and churches.

Tickets are set.

The car picks us up in exactly 16 minutes.

Parker, lady, when you put her to work.

Very soon.

The grand jury investigation of work is almost complete.

What do you think?

Vice President was here.

I think we'll come around.

And then?

And then we satisfy Michael.

Mr. Colfax wants everything to end when the indictment on Mr. Worth is squashed.

I'll be back.

Colfax never had a brother.

And if he did, he wouldn't know whether he loved him or not.

We still dealing with that secret service, man.

Warner got rid of him.

He'll retire on his pension and all the financial gratitude we're endowing him with.

It's a pretty expensive retirement.

Depends on his longevity. Can we pay the bill?

I've had enough of room. Where's the luggage?

So Rome is none of my business.

Everything you do is my business.

Because we are in business, in business for life.

I told you there'd be no unauthorized straying.

I handed you a package. You bought it.

I bought nothing.

Then I misunderstood you. And that is unfortunate.

But now there'll be no misunderstanding.

There'll be no further contact with that woman.

No calls, no shared memories. It's over.

It's attacking a discretion to begin with leading to a near-disester for all of us.

Adam, you wanted power. You have it.

You have this great house. You have secret service, man.

The president has enormous respect for you. So don't embarrass us, Adam.

Don't screw you around like some.

Allocate with no home, no responsibility, no family, no daughter.

You understand? If I have to destroy you, I will.

You do offer a strong case for obsession, but I've known you all your life.

You want more than anyone I know.

If you go to sleep mumbling more, you wake up screeching more.

Mary Beth, you wouldn't put your ass on a satin cushion

if you thought it would make the slightest crease.

Thank you.

From your real family? Who's your real family, Jennifer?

Real family.

Here's to all brilliant lawyers.

So, Jennifer, how do you feel?

I'm a little strange.

As well you should.

Have some champagne, Mr. Simmons.

Jeremy Simmons, I work for you.

Then drink up. Working for me is a good thing, isn't it, Deke?

Oh, it's a very good thing.

So, here's two happy endings.

Your driver is downstairs, he's still fine.

We've all been having such fun.

Well, Deke and I have to get back to Washington tonight.

Goodbye, Mr. Simmons.

Don't lose Mr. Simmons, Jennifer.

Not all about you, but I feel that I've been filed away for future use.

How much are we paying that loser who comes with Parker?

Jeremy Simmons, not all that much?

Here it takes me.

Why?

I don't know. He's one of those all-mosts or could-of-bins.

They can be dangerous.

You never know when they're going to break out, kill themselves or do something heroic.

Listen, darling, you go on down to Washington. I can't make the show tonight.

Parker woman has screwed up my day.

We're about the seats, your seats.

Use them. Call one of the girls in the office.

They're a tall, intelligent one from the tax department.

The one from Yale Law School. I hear she screams pretty good.

The one on Layton screams. She doesn't even know I'm alive.

She knows I'm alive. She'll scream.

Why this compulsion to set me up with other women?

I don't want to be selfish.

You can leave them with me, that is.

You're sure? No trouble at all to take them up.

Oh, don't bother, lad.

It was good enough for you to go shopping with me. Haven't seen you in ages.

I'm working two jobs. Trying to be the best.

We're proud of your debtors.

Come and see us next week.

Look forward to it.

Excuse me, I'm looking for a restaurant. It's, uh...

It's called the Friendly Tiger.

Why see more? Why? Why is this Irishman telling partner?

Don't know, Mr. Moretti. Can Thomas be second-guessing me?

Look, Mr. Callahan, or Wase, whatever you call yourself.

You're making a filthy afternoon, even filthier.

We could all be doing something creative in our education.

Yeah. Yeah. Kind of.

Where's your kid?

Oh, no.

Look, all I want to know is why Thomas Colfax has you tagging Jennifer Parker.

It's sort of silly, Thomas Colfax and I are partners. Jennifer Parker is looked after.

Why is Colfax second-guessing me?

Me. His old friend and partner.

I don't know, Colfax. I promise you.

I'm a saint of mother's grave. I don't know if Colfax ain't both.

There is no more time, mate.

I don't know how much suffering you've done in your life.

But assuming there is no pain you haven't experienced.

There's about a lot of pain in your life.

I don't know how much suffering you've done in your life.

It was about to happen to you for you, Nick.

See, more is a wizard at this sort of thing.

On the job training, I think it's Colfax.

I saw Mr. Callahan.

If you don't talk to us about your life with Mr. Colfax,

you'll spend the rest of your blind time sitting on a wooden platform

with your heart sending out signals to limbs that no longer exist.

So, John, who the hell are you?

And what is your relationship to my dear friend and colleague,

Thomas Fairchild, Colfax?

This beleaguered gentleman may have nothing to do with Colfax.

This beleaguered gentleman may have nothing to do with Colfax.

He might even be who he says he has.

Please to beistan, I will help you.

I must Equ Diane.

I must go down to the hospital.

You cough and you really should think of him.

Come on.

Come on.

See what a highly charged world we live in, mate?

We look everywhere for the truth, but in a man's eyes.

If we could see your eyes, I'll bet we'd see the truth.

I'm sorry, Mr. Kaleil.

It's okay, sir.

No hard time.

I was only.

Mr. Kaleil.

Before we misjudged you,

before we made it difficult for you to see, I believe that you did see us.

I'm afraid that's unacceptable.

Surely you understand that seeing who we are is unacceptable.

Hail Mary, full of grace.

Lord, it's with thee.

Let's learn the power of the Lord.

This is the truth of the earth, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Lord God, thank you for the sinners.

No, look at the hour.

Come on, Lord.

You can find me, see more to apologize to Colfax.

I'll get it.

The hell is calling to this side?

Patrick Foreman and Delafonte?

Yes, this is Jennifer Parker.

Yes.

Adam, you're aware?

You sound very close.

Oh, Josh, it was fine.

Just fine.

No, he's doing very well.

Even in arithmetic.

No, I've never been there.

Adam, I'm not a school girl. I have responsibilities.

So do you.

I'm sorry.

I can't handle this.

I can't.

Goodbye, Adam.

Goodbye, Adam.

Come on, kid. Let's get out of here.

We'll listen to some gentle music.

Am I crying?

Adam.

I don't see any tears.

Not mine?

Not a single to you.

What's left after tears, Jeremy?

I don't know.

Dignity, I guess.

Come on.

Our people on this scene

figure out that the grand jury has almost completed

this investigation of Jerry Wirth.

I'm about ready.

I don't like the word about.

My father used to say you alerted Carrot to early.

You give him time to become a hero.

Didn't know your father spoke English?

Didn't know if we'd ever reach Warner and his man, Haber.

We shop elsewhere.

Elsewhere's nowhere.

I'm the only store that deals in these matters.

Then deal, dammit.

The longer this case hovers about, the uglier it can get.

Stop looking, Arch, Margot.

I told you I move when I feel it right to move.

Let's get on with it, Moretti.

Jennifer Parker makes me feel uncomfortable.

Just old, Margot.

The lady is common, and nobody from nowhere.

You're not the same legal Jennifer Parker.

Come on, Margot.

Why, Jim, Moretti.

You're in love.

You've fallen in love with a downstairs maid.

How droll.

I'd kill you, Margot.

If you hadn't already died of facelift poisoning,

you'll kill Noah.

There will be no independent action in our company.

You understand?

Of course, Thomas.

Excuse my excursions, Margot.

I'm known to overreact on social themes,

but be assured I never do anything about them.

I'm a businessman.

I even have cards.

Engraved.

Salute.

Hey, Jeremy.

Slow down. We're only going back to the office.

I thought we'd go over the Gerstin matter.

Our postponement's almost up.

You did get that postponement.

Jeremy.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, you did get that postponement, didn't you?

Taxi.

Katherine's gone again, isn't she?

Or is she back?

I can't tell with you anymore.

Okay, either way, I'm on your side,

but you were supposed to get that postponement.

It was a routine matter.

Now we're in heavy suit.

For God's sake, Jeremy.

Let's slip on line.

I got involved with this one.

It's not a grown-up excuse.

Talk to me.

I'm your associate, your friend.

Lay off, will you?

I will not lay off. I will not pant for you.

You need to be stroked after the Ryan.

Pat Catherine.

Take your way out of order, counselor.

Catherine and myself are all from the midst of you to everyone.

It's our marriage. It's all lousy. Missed the dot marriage.

Jeremy, come back.

You want to get killed by a congressman?

Get out of the congressman!

You want him, Mr. DeS

I want him, Mr. DeS

We found him half hour ago, sir.

Here's his ID, and we found this.

A secret service man with Jennifer Parker's address?

That's why we called into your office, sir.

Appreciate it.

Interesting package, isn't it, Vince?

The first report we got was from two drivers in the upper roadway.

They saw this guy jump.

Did they see anybody with him?

No, sir. They say it happened too fast.

You ever heard of a secret service man knocking himself off, Mr. DeS

I heard they're all very adjusted.

There are two reasons why very adjusted people finished themselves.

One, they were not that adjusted in the first place.

And two, someone else made the decision.

Good morning, Miss Parker.

Good morning, Miss Parker.

Would you two share one good morning?

Jeremy's here and he said to tell you we got the postponement.

Oh, great. Would you ask him to come in?

He's getting his things together.

All right, friend. What the hell do you think you're doing?

Moving on.

By the way, I got your postponement. Who gets the keys?

Please, please don't suck your way out of the office. Out of my life.

Go on then. Scurry out.

Take your battered briefcase to Father Ryan. He'll console you.

Yeah, he'll tell you that life is cruel and wives and husbands even crueler.

Do you know something, Jeremy? You don't have to go to Father Ryan for that.

You can get that sermon right here.

Yeah, I guess I can, Jennifer.

I don't doubt your expertise in these matters.

I suspect you're a card-carrying member of the Hot Break Club.

Anything more?

Yeah. There is something more.

I might be unraveling, but I'm still trying.

You, Counselor, you quit. You're not in the fight anymore.

You don't bleed. You reminisce.

You know what's gonna happen to you, Counselor?

Tell me, Jeremy.

You better tell me.

You're gonna grow old gracefully.

With witty stories for the old and lots of quotable anecdotes for the young.

You're gonna sit around quite safely, remembering, waiting.

Your memories of pain are gonna become so distant you won't be able to separate them from a favorite sad book.

Yeah.

Might be ludicrous, but I'm gonna give it a whirl.

You see, I love Catherine.

I'll probably get mangled for my efforts.

I might end up a suicide or a drunk, but not now.

Not yet.

Jeremy, keep the keys.

Stay at least until I get back.

Till I catch up with my past.

Until I earn the right to tell you or anybody anything.

I'll tell you what I want.

I'll tell you what I want.

Until I earn the right to tell you or anybody anything.

Keep the keys.

You're here and I'm alive.

I'm grateful.

I had so much in love.

If this is a dream and I wake up without you.

If it is a dream, we'll put off waking up.

I'm glad you're here.

I'm glad you're here.

I'm glad you're here.

If it is a dream, we'll put off waking up.

Harry, you're right.

Listen, old campaigner, you called me.

That's right.

I'm glad you're here.

Listen, if the president wanted treasury in on this,

the secretary would have been in Boston, not me.

You want to change policy? Go to the president.

No, I'm not calling from anywhere.

I'm staying with friends, trying to get away from you powerful figures for a few days.

Right. Bye, Craig.

I still don't believe you're here.

You're actually here.

What happened to changing mind, Jenny?

I don't know.

I just needed to see you.

You needed to see us.

I don't even care why you're here. The fact is, you are.

Yes, I am. That feels strangely at home.

Whoever said lightning doesn't strike twice.

I know it's a little late to ask, but who's pad is this anyway?

This pad, madam, is what we call le pad de close buddy.

What?

Lean hideaway owned by a good friend with enough taste to be elsewhere.

A long way elsewhere.

Was it difficult for you to come up here, Jennifer?

It's difficult now.

Overwhelming, yes.

To see a man I love.

To touch a man I love.

To sleep with a man I love.

Okay, it's my turn.

What are you thinking about?

Really, thinking about you?

I guess you're still a fella.

One who can knock you down and hold you up.

One guy who can prove hearts can be broken.

Can you really remain unnoticed, even on a beach between no wares?

Vice presidents are not celebrities, Jennifer.

Unless the events bring attention to us, say during a campaign of a funeral.

Nobody knows who the hell we are, I could care less.

I do.

Look out of their poles twice as long as the two of them.

Think they'll catch anything?

Doesn't matter, they're fishing, and they're free.

Great! Great cast!

Yes, yes, yes, yes.

Blessed are the children.

As long as he will enjoy the mass of your own living life.

Look at him.

All that mist.

All those miles.

One day, Jennifer will.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

One day, Jennifer will.

Be at the other side.

So many cities for us to see.

So many journeys to share.

It's strange, Adam.

Places we remember best are the ones we never see.

Please remind me where we were.

In love.

Damn right.

Okay, thank you.

All right.

I'm to remind you where we were.

Where we were is now.

What happened?

Remember, I told you Vice Presidents get noticed only at funerals.

Well, I'm noticed I have to leave tomorrow.

Chancellor Vile died suddenly.

I'll make arrangements for you to get back.

Don't worry about me, Adam. I can always get home.

I don't even need a note pin to my glass.

Oh, Jenny.

We still have the night.

No more separations, Jenny.

I can't say goodbye again.

What can you say?

Oh, no.

You really don't know, do you?

You realize we'll be facing De Salva again?

The third time this week, he won't let up.

And none of these cases were his.

The man is obsessed with me. He thinks I'm guilty of everything.

He never thought I was legitimate.

Margot doesn't like these cases.

I'm trying them.

She wants to fire me?

Let her go.

I'm trying to.

I'm trying to.

I'm trying to.

Margot doesn't like these cases.

Ladies and gentlemen, I know that the words law and courtroom

constantly expounded here by Mr. De Salva

appear somewhat more frightening away from your homes and daily lives.

But please indulge me for a moment.

Let's forget for these few odd seconds that we're in a courtroom.

Okay?

Let's imagine instead that we're sitting around my small living room

talking about what's happening to this defendant,

a fellow human being.

Try to picture yourselves in a quiet place

where people of goodwill come together

and share the problems of everyday life.

Yes.

Look at the jury.

Life with people.

Idiots, art and parkers living room.

Life with heart.

I've forgotten the whole damn case.

Ladies and gentlemen, for a little while anyway,

I would like you to forget that you're in a court of law.

That's a strange request from the office of district attorney,

but indulge me for a few seconds.

Imagine, if you will, that you're sitting at home in my living room

who are just chatting informally as friends.

The loss is stealing you stuff.

So he is.

How dare he tell you to forget you're sitting in a court of law?

Perhaps Mr. De Salva would have you believe you're at a ballgame

eating hot dogs or at a racetrack

placing bats for his staff.

So I'm asking you ladies and gentlemen,

to remember, to remember where you are

and to remember that all of us are here to see that justice is done

and that the defendant is vindicated in a courtroom.

Parker has learned a lot from you, Chief.

Lee.

And wow, is he too big.

Do you see what she did to that jury?

Chief, you have taught us some of the finer aspects.

I teach Jennifer Parker yet, be like teaching a piranha deed slowly.

Hi, Mr. De Salva, you're upset.

Now who upset are you in a district attorney?

Our client, Winnie?

Don't think so.

The pressure of the job.

Mimi?

Mimi.

A downfall.

Listen, broad.

Listen, broad.

It's women, Jeremy. There's the clue.

Mr. De Salva has trouble with women, or as he refers to them.

Broads.

Mr. De Salva has been happily married for years.

Mr. De Salva has, but has anyone asked his wife?

Let's get out of here, Ben.

Okay, I'll raise you two.

How many cards do you want?

I only need one card.

Going inside street.

Dealer takes two.

Okay.

Now what do you people think you're doing?

The nice ladies teach me to play poker.

Your kid has possibilities.

Father Ryan, I'd like to see you up here.

And I'll have a conference with you later, Mrs. Maki.

Me too.

When did she contact you?

About a week ago.

She said she had business in Cleveland and wanted to stop off in New York.

How did she know about you?

She follows things.

You know, of course, that she's Josh.

Was grandmother?

Oh.

Don't be so clever.

What did she tell Joshua?

Only that she's a friend.

Well, that's something, anyway.

Your mother.

You know, Joshua is really taken.

He invited her to supper.

It's all right.

She can't stay.

She said she's too jet lagged to be hungry.

She probably drank all the way from Rome.

Your kid is adding up a score.

I guess you two are doing the same.

You get worse and worse.

The teacher child poker at his age.

The kid tells me he's playing baseball again.

You know, it's strange coming back to the States.

It's been many years.

Most everyone I knew is dead.

The few that are alive should be dead.

Father Ryan, don't laugh at her.

Don't encourage her.

She loves to be outrageous.

You should get married.

You should have more babies.

You make nice kids.

I'm sorry.

I did hear that you and the politician are over.

You hear everything, don't you?

You can do better than the politician.

Be patient.

I waited.

I did better.

Get the hell out of here.

Now, that part of you I like.

No.

I can't really stay.

I've got a car outside and the driver's probably starved.

I'll call you before I leave.

I'll be at the plaza if you...

You know, that is such a habit.

Such a sentimental, ridiculous habit,

telling people where you are in case they need you.

Me of all people.

I guess I'm about 20 years late.

There you go.

So I'll be at the plaza if you need me.

Oh, by the way, all the way from Rome,

I tried to remember your father's first name.

Abner.

Of course.

I knew it was something ridiculous.

I'm not saying a word.

Not a single, solitary word.

But she is your mother.

Oh, well, I am.

I'm not saying anything.

But after all, Jennifer, she is your mother.

Oh, well, and I tried. I did, but she...

She is your mother.

You'll have to cut a deal.

I don't have to do anything.

I'll get it.

I'll get it.

I'll get it.

I'll get it.

It's always a bill.

And if we don't pay...

Exposure.

Not like Joshua.

By the way, what's his last name?

You bastard.

Lady, we are now into overtime.

You are very nervous. You will close the deal with Warner,

and you will give him this.

If you don't give it to him, you will go over.

On my brother's grave, you will go over.

You're in bed with the devil.

Enjoy.

Please.

Please.

Help.

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

You know what you are.

You know what you are.

Michael, you're new.

This is for Michael.

No!

No!

This is for Michael.

No!

Michael!

Oh, he's Michael!

You can't do it yourself.

He'd eat Michael.

He'd eat Michael for everything.

No!

I need nothing.

No!

No!

No!

No!

Mr. Vice President.

What?

What time is it?

It's one answer.

Is everything all right?

Is the president this fine?

Would you take a call?

What?

I'll call, sir.

I've been trying to reach you all day, Adam.

I must see you.

I don't know when.

I'm stuck in Washington for a few days.

Two tight folks in the Senate.

I may be called upon the cast of tiebreaker.

Adam, I have to see you.

I wouldn't ask if it worked.

All right.

I'll tell you what.

I'm coming up to New York.

I'm addressing the annual dinner

of the National Conference on the Arts.

I can't see you there.

Every name in America will be storming in.

Perfect.

Big crowds less notice.

I'll leave a pair of tickets, bring someone.

You'll be noticed less.

Between cocktails, dinner, and speech-making,

I'll have a rain something.

We must meet.

Okay, Jennifer.

We'll meet.

Come on, give us something.

Come on, come on.

Bye, girl.

Bye.

See you, sir.

You look lovely tonight, Miss Parker.

Very lawyer-like.

You're doing all right, Jennifer.

You're doing just fine.

Look at Parker.

A mask of innocence.

She'll be there.

Miss Parker.

Miss Parker.

Miss Parker.

Miss Parker.

Miss Parker.

Jennifer, I would have met you soon.

I understand.

Ever since we were together.

I know, one funeral after another.

Sorry, Adam.

I'm not here for reminiscing.

What are you here for?

It's incredible.

Absolutely incredible that Moretti's people think I would even consider asking the Deputy Attorney General

the squash and indictment that I would ask a friend.

It's because he's your friend, Adam.

They know he owes his job to you.

I did not recommend Alan Haber to the president because he's a friend of mine.

The man is a brilliant lawyer.

Moretti said no one would criticize Haber if he decided not to proceed.

He seems so confident.

They think one word for me to you can solve their problem.

Jennifer, they'll pull everything down. That's what they'll do.

Those kinds of people don't just threaten blackmail.

So the hyenas have come down from the hills, hey, Jenny?

I'll let them.

I say no, and no, and no.

Adam, I know it.

I know it.

Don't you touch my husband, you whore.

Mary Beth, whatever the circumstances, whatever I mean, whatever the conflicts the three of us have,

we're in this together.

We have a common purpose.

We have nothing in common.

Mary Beth, will you listen? We're being blackmailed.

Some people know about...

Jennifer and you.

And...

a boy.

Named Walt Miss Parker.

They'd have to leak out.

I warned you, you silly son.

I warned you!

It's too late for recriminations, Mrs. Warner.

If you want apologies, I'll give you all you want.

But right now, Adam must save...

Must save what?

I'll tell you what he's going to save.

He's going to save his daughter, me, his career. That's what he's going to save.

Mary Beth, you don't understand.

Moretti knows who Joshua's father is.

They're asking for a deal.

They want me to squash an indictment against a super crook named Jerry Worth.

Now do you understand? They want me to make a deal.

For God's sake, Adam.

No benefits if you don't make a deal.

Who?

So another hustler gets off. Who cares?

Every day, people get away with things.

But still the system works.

Every second of history, there's a certain amount of dirty pool.

Yet the system works.

Every day, somebody bends the law. Yet the system works.

What system?

You have no standing in this court.

Adam, you can make a deal with these people.

We tell them it's a one time sale, one time.

If they come back for more, public servants are vulnerable granted, but...

We can move in awesome ways. Those people know that they won't be back again.

Mary Beth does make some interesting points,

not that I necessarily agree with all of them, but...

There are complex issues here.

And what are they?

Adam, there are 500 people waiting to hear you speak.

Jennifer, trust me, I'll do the right thing. I always have.

And I do have you and the boy to think of.

No, Adam.

Don't call him.

Call him, Adam.

Given the traditional priorities of human needs, peace, food, health, and education must be placed at the top.

Yet without heart, there is ultimately nothing.

True, we can have peace at full valleys, great hospitals, even the prolongation of life.

We can leap out of solar systems and find infinity itself.

But still, in the secret heart of all of us, the eyes behind the eyes of all of us,

the inner ear of all of us, aren't we all searching for some elusive theme?

A piece of music, just the other side of our hearts.

Aren't our ears picking up phrases, a rhythm, a tall story that hangs around the house like an old friend?

Aren't there gentle reminders of early days when we all cared so much that nothing else really seemed to matter?

Isn't there some fragment of beauty that makes us feel that even if the stars no longer look down, we have the strength to look up?

You did well, James. I told you, worth will not be touched.

Why not take a vacation, James? You deserve it. You need a holiday.

Don't stand in shadow, Seymour. You make people nervous being an odd cue, come in.

Thank you, Mr. Kornax.

So how about a vacation, James? The company will pick up the tab.

They're still my brother, Michael. They're still unfinished business.

With Warner.

And Parker.

Your brother is dead, Jim. Don't muddle things up. It's not good.

Want a drink, Seymour?

Do you enjoy Warner's speech?

Still thinking about it. Warner is a powerful speaker.

It's good. Do you have any trouble getting in? No.

I always like having a man on the inside.

I enjoyed myself. You really thinking about finishing Warner in the Parker Lady?

I never thought of anything else.

I guess if it was my brother, I'd be just as crazy.

Want to come up for a drink? I'm too excited to sleep.

Sure.

Seymour, how about some champagne?

Some soda water, please.

What the hell is this?

You don't kill the vice president, Mr. Moretti.

It's not right.

Why?

It's wrong, Mr. Moretti. It is wrong to kill the vice president,

even Mr. Colfax, says it's wrong. Even Mr. Colfax.

You work for me, you crazy bastard.

We both work for Colfax. It's not right to kill the vice president.

Mr. Moretti.

Mr. Moretti.

Mr. Moretti.

Mr. Moretti.

Mr. Moretti will fix it. Moretti will take care of it.

Moretti can't fix his hair anymore.

Keep it down, Jerry. Don't howl at me. You promised me.

I believed you. You took out Moretti. You burned your own private hitman

before he squashed my indictment. Why?

Moretti went psycho on us. He wanted to blow away Adam Warner afterwards.

I don't care what happens to Adam Warner afterwards.

We don't. Well, we do. Killing the vice president.

Moretti could have pulled us all down. The whole organization.

Of which you are a major part, Jerry.

Don't be a diplomat, Margot. It brings out the slut in you.

Listen, when I have... Shut it off, Margot.

Jerry, Moretti had to go.

What about me?

You thought the assassination of Adam Warner would bring the organization down.

You don't know the meaning of down. I'm indicted. You will see down.

You will see down so far that a hole in a swamp will look like heaven to you.

Jerry, we're not going down. It neither will.

You think we're stupid enough to count on only Jim Moretti's black males?

Yeah. Yeah, I think you're stupid enough.

I was.

That's very generous of you.

But don't aggravate me.

Jerry, you will not be indicted. I give you my word.

The company's word.

Now, we've been together a long time.

I've never walked on your lawn.

I've never ruffled any one of your splendid feathers, mmm?

Then don't begin.

You remind him, Margot.

Remind him who I am.

I know who you are, Jerry.

Remind him, Margot.

He could take us down.

So remind me, Margot.

Remind me who Jerry Worth is.

And on a local note, the death of Jerome Worth at 59 came as a big shock to the power brokers of this city and elsewhere.

Worth apparently was killed by a hidden run driver as he left his house late this afternoon.

Worth was reported to be in some difficulty with various branches of the government.

Always a colorful figure. Worth had a dazzling array of friends.

So it's over, Adam. It's all over. Nothing more will happen.

I'll be no further attempt to influence you with Miretty's death and now with Worth gone they have nothing, and they don't need anything.

They've had a happy ending, and so have we.

You understand, Mary Beth. I never intended to make a deal.

I never said I'd contact anyone at the Justice Department. I never agreed to anything.

Of course you didn't.

Darling, it's all right to call Jennifer Parker.

You will anyway. But do let her know that her problem with fathers and sons is over. Tell her she can live quietly.

Tell her to live quietly. Understand.

Call her, Adam. It's fine with me.

Margot Delafonte was up to her neck in the whole filthy mess.

So I'm going to take my little diploma and four pictures back to a little office with a little window and along with Jeremy, practice a little law.

That's what I'm going to do.

And you feel okay about Jeremy?

His work is superb and Catherine's home. I hope she stays.

I pray she will. But Jeremy will wait for her no matter. I have nothing to be done about that.

Guess who's back.

Where's Mrs. Smith?

She stopped to do some shopping. Child boundary.

I'm exhausted. Just getting that kid to school. Why am I explaining things to you?

You know in Italy, you see a priest and you start explaining.

Ah, here kid wants the whole world explained to him

before he goes one block.

Echo, who does he think he is?

That six-year-old boy who looks around.

You OK?

What's wrong?

The eyes.

You're so solicitous.

Last week you hinted me.

That was a week ago on as thick as you are.

Are you OK?

No.

I'll get you a glass of water.

Hello?

No, this water I have.

I have a call.

My space is full.

Oh.

You have to take a call.

Yeah.

I'll take this call in my bedroom.

When you hear my voice, please hang out.

It wouldn't occur to me to do anything else.

On the ride, you get more case than a glass of water.

Nothing in it.

Ah, Padre.

No.

OK.

Gentlemen, please.

Who was it?

Wrong number.

MUSIC PLAYING

It's tiny.

I shouldn't have.

How ill are you?

So that's why you came home.

You're going to tell Jennifer.

You crazy?

All these years.

And I'm going to play a long look after dear old mum

seen with a daughter I barely know.

Depress a child who thinks of me as a funny card shark?

No.

Listen, a little bourbon from time to time.

And my big mouth.

They won't even know I've got a cold.

What do you plan to do?

Oh, little of this, little of that.

I've got money, you know.

She's going to stay away from that warne fella.

You listened.

Who needs to listen?

Ryan, I barely know Jennifer, but I know women.

There is a look.

You OK?

Sure.

Sure.

Well, I'm off.

Cara, come in to pick me up.

You'll be back.

Joshua, we'll fill that and play poker.

It's not for him.

That kid gets a thought and it's all over his face.

Jennifer, I'm not going to say it's none of my business,

because that sort of politeness is against my religion.

But damn right.

But no.

I'm not going to see the politician.

Good.

You can vote for him.

But nothing else.

Nothing else.

Where's your father buried anyway?

Miracle Cemetery, Kelso Washington State.

Why?

I thought I'd say hello.

He was a nice man.

Andy brought you up well.

I'd like to thank him.

By the way, what name does he go by in that place?

Abner, damn it.

Abner Parker.

Abner.

You know, it's got kind of a nice ring to it, Abner.

Let's try to see that it's not forgotten.

I'll tell you what I'm saying.

It's too.

Joshua, the Marques that did not teach you how to cheat.

She did.

Hi.

There's that terrific man.

Oh.

It's OK, Mrs. Marques.

You've got to think for supper this time.

Joshua, go and finish your game with Mrs. Mackey.

We did.

She owes me $1,000.

Oh, then give her the chance to win it back, Josh.

That's the gentlemanly thing to do.

OK, but don't you go away.

How do we settle this on the phone?

Help me anyway, Jennifer.

I'm stuck.

Been rehearsing all morning.

So you knew I'd be here.

Joshua's been.

Always.

Oh, Jennifer.

Tell me to make a run for her.

Tell me to tell them all to go to hell.

Tell me to tell them I'm resigning.

Why resign, Adam?

I'd have to.

I couldn't stay in office.

Divorce, Mary Beth.

Marry me.

Acknowledge your son.

Poor Adam.

You equate me with disgrace.

Jenny, that's not what I meant.

Of course it is.

You see yourself as a martyr to love.

A political unit wandering around the world with me

and Joshua.

Telling anybody you can, which you sacrificed for true love.

Jennifer, that's a terrible portrait.

Adam, we've both been unfaithful.

You, to Mary Beth, your daughter, your position.

So have I. I've been unfaithful to my life.

A friend of mine called me on it and he was right.

I fused our love as a substitute for living.

I love you.

I love you now.

That's a fact.

That night love has to become irrelevant.

Irrelevant to growing up and moving on.

Tell me, what can I say?

What should I say to keep you?

Tell me, Jennifer, OK?

I need you to tell me that there's no future for us.

Only a president.

But you can't do that, can you, Adam?

Then you tell me what will happen to you without me.

Can you make it?

I sure as hell am gonna try.

I mean, I'm gonna bleed a lot.

I'm gonna bleed all over my best drugs, but I won't die from it.

And I'm not staying retired any longer.

I insist on hanging around for a long time.

What about our son?

One day Joshua will have to figure that out for himself.

And I hope he's considering an understanding of his parents

who will not grow old together.

I hope he understands.

That's the greatest loss of all.

Hey, Mom, they're getting ready to dance.

They look so funny.

Tell them that's a hurry.

Be right there, Joshua.

Goodbye, Adam.

Don't let anybody frighten you again.

You're too tall.

I guess it does stop there.

Bye, Johnny.

...

You want to find him to suffer?

Hey, Mommy, you're crying.

Well, it's about time, pal.

Hey, there's starting all kinds of stuff over there.

Bye.

You
