00:01:33 Christmas Eve in New York. A happy time for some people, the lucky ones.
00:01:39 Last minute shopping, presents for the kids,
00:01:42 hurry home to light the tree and fill the stockings for the lucky ones.
00:01:47 Others aren't so lucky.
00:01:50 Nick Bianco hadn't worked for a year.
00:01:53 He had a record, a prison record.
00:01:56 They say it shouldn't count against you.
00:01:59 But when Nick tried to get a job, the same thing always happened.
00:02:04 Very sorry. No prejudice, of course, but no job either.
00:02:11 So this is how Nick went Christmas shopping for his kids.

00:02:46 [Music]
00:02:58 Good afternoon.
00:03:00 Don't move. Put your hands behind you.
00:03:03 [Door opening and closing]
00:03:13 [Silence]
00:03:35 Come on.
00:03:36 What about the safe?
00:03:37 We've got enough. Come on.
00:03:39 [Silence]
00:03:55 Did you ring?
00:03:56 Take it easy. I rang.
00:03:58 [Silence]
00:04:27 [Silence]
00:04:44 [Door opening and closing]

00:05:41 [Alarm]
00:05:47 [Door opening and closing]
00:05:49 Anybody out at four?
00:05:50 Yeah.
00:05:51 [Silence]
00:05:53 This isn't the lobby, mister.
00:05:55 [Silence]
00:06:04 [Door opening and closing]

00:06:47 [Siren]
00:06:51 [Gunshots]
00:06:58 The same thing happened twenty years ago to Nick's father.
00:07:02 He died with a policeman's bullet in him.
00:07:05 Nick saw it.
00:07:07 It was one of his earliest memories.
00:07:09 [Silence]
00:07:21 [Phone ringing]
00:07:23 Yeah?
00:07:24 Sheldon, he's here with Nick Bianco.
00:07:26 Okay, send it in, both of them.
00:07:28 [Silence]
00:07:36 Hello, Bianco. How's the leg? All better, huh?
00:07:38 Yeah.
00:07:39 Sit here.
00:07:40 [Silence]
00:07:43 You know who I am?
00:07:45 What difference does it make?
00:07:47 Never mind getting fresh, Bianco.
00:07:49 You're the DA.
00:07:51 Assistant.
00:07:53 My name is Louis D'Angelo.
00:07:55 [Silence]
00:07:57 Let's see what we got here.
00:07:59 Bianco Nick.
00:08:01 Age twenty-nine.
00:08:03 At the age of seventeen, burglary in the first.
00:08:06 Plea guilty.
00:08:07 Sixty days in the city reformatory.
00:08:10 Four years later, grand larceny in the first charge.
00:08:14 Convicted of grand in the second of the trial.
00:08:17 Two and one half to five years in Sing Sing.
00:08:20 Third charge, robbery in the first while armed.
00:08:24 Witness failed to appear.
00:08:26 Case dropped.
00:08:29 By the way, how much do witnesses cost in the open market now?
00:08:33 How should I know?
00:08:35 You know why you're here?
00:08:36 I'm supposed to squeal.
00:08:39 I want the names of those three men that were with you on that job.
00:08:43 You know what you're going to get on this rap?
00:08:45 Fifteen years.
00:08:46 Maybe twenty.
00:08:48 Maybe I can help you.
00:08:49 Look, you're wasting your time.
00:08:52 Those records you got there ain't complete.
00:08:55 It should say I was offered a deal by another assistant DA if I squealed.
00:09:00 I took the full four years.
00:09:04 I'm the same guy now I was then.
00:09:07 Nothing has changed.
00:09:09 Nothing.
00:09:12 I wouldn't say that, Nick.
00:09:14 Something has changed since then.
00:09:17 Seems to me I saw where the parole officer reported here that you have two kids.
00:09:24 Two little girls.
00:09:27 That ought to change things a little.
00:09:29 You know, sometimes I think that doctors are right.
00:09:32 That all crooks are crazy.
00:09:34 Imagine a guy with two little girls--
00:09:36 Shut up!
00:09:39 You don't like that?
00:09:43 How old are they?
00:09:47 You know, I'm always interested in kids.
00:09:56 I have four of my own.
00:10:09 Can I take a look at your pictures?
00:10:11 What pictures?
00:10:13 The pictures you got in your inside coat pocket.
00:10:35 Beautiful kids, Nick.
00:10:36 Yeah, they're cute.
00:10:39 A man's lucky to have kids.
00:10:44 Having a father like you, I wouldn't say is very lucky for them.
00:10:49 No, Nick.
00:10:51 Your kids haven't had much luck.
00:10:54 I'll take care of my family.
00:10:57 My way.
00:10:58 You mean by keeping your mouth shut and going to jail?
00:11:02 You know why you're doing it?
00:11:04 Because you've got that good old hoodlum complex.
00:11:07 No squealing.
00:11:09 Desert your kids.
00:11:10 Let them starve.
00:11:12 Let your home go to pot.
00:11:14 But don't squeal on some no-good hoodlums who wouldn't turn a finger for you.
00:11:21 I hate crooks.
00:11:23 Then why are you wasting your time on me?
00:11:25 Because any guy that could have two kids like that isn't a crook.
00:11:28 Crooked, yes.
00:11:30 Stupid, yes.
00:11:31 On the wrong foot, yes.
00:11:33 But he isn't one of those mugs that don't belong to human society.
00:11:37 Those are two normal, decent little human beings.
00:11:40 Give me that.
00:11:41 And no crook could make them that sweet.
00:11:43 No play ball, eh?
00:11:44 No.
00:11:45 You're coming up before Judge Halstead.
00:11:47 Do you know him?
00:11:48 Yes.
00:11:49 He'll throw the book at you if you don't cooperate.
00:11:51 No deal.
00:11:55 See you in court, Bianco.
00:11:58 Wait a minute.
00:12:01 How are you, Nick?
00:12:04 How do you do, Mr. Halstead?
00:12:09 I'm fine, son.
00:12:12 Sit down, sir.
00:12:15 Sit down.
00:12:18 Well, we meet again, Nick.
00:12:33 Fortunes of war, eh?
00:12:34 I hear you had a long talk with Mr. DiAngelo.
00:12:38 You don't have to worry.
00:12:39 Good.
00:12:40 Good.
00:12:41 Your words are all I need.
00:12:43 Did the boys pay you?
00:12:44 Every penny.
00:12:45 Now, I don't want you to expect very much in court.
00:12:50 We've got no defense at all.
00:12:53 What do I do?
00:12:54 Nothing.
00:12:55 Trust me.
00:12:56 Even when Halstead hits you with a book,
00:12:59 stand pat and rely on me.
00:13:01 I begin to work then.
00:13:04 On the parole?
00:13:05 Yes.
00:13:06 It may take a while, but I'll have you outrun.
00:13:11 Did you see the missus?
00:13:13 I talked to her on the phone.
00:13:15 She'll be in court.
00:13:16 Thanks.
00:13:19 Are the kids all right, do you happen to know?
00:13:21 They're fine.
00:13:23 Good.
00:13:24 You can rely on me, Nick.
00:13:27 The same goes for me, Mr. Houser.
00:13:29 Thanks for everything.
00:13:30 Goodbye.
00:13:36 Goodbye.
00:14:04 I'm sick of this squirt passing up and down.
00:14:07 What for?
00:14:10 I have to keep passing up and down here all the time.
00:14:18 The nickel and greg.
00:14:21 Stick both thumbs right in his eyes.
00:14:25 Hang on till he drops dead.
00:14:33 You're Nick Bianco, aren't you?
00:14:35 Yes.
00:14:36 Houser told me.
00:14:38 You're a big man.
00:14:40 I'm Tommy Udo.
00:14:44 I've heard of you.
00:14:45 You did, huh?
00:14:48 Imagine me in on this cheap rap.
00:14:50 Big man like me.
00:14:52 Picked up just for shoving a guy's ears off his head.
00:14:55 I'm happy to get stuff.
00:15:10 Hello, Bianco.
00:15:12 You got a minute?
00:15:15 I wouldn't give you the skin off a grape.
00:15:22 That'll be a stiff sentence, Nick.
00:15:24 You're Seth?
00:15:25 I'm Seth.
00:15:27 You know, I wasn't fooling when I talked with you.
00:15:30 I like those pictures you showed me.
00:15:32 Thanks.
00:15:35 I talked to the judge.
00:15:37 He'll play ball.
00:15:39 Well?
00:15:40 No deal.
00:15:42 Okay.
00:15:44 If you should change your mind later on, though, let me hear.
00:15:49 Remember my name and get in touch with me.
00:15:51 You know, I'm your insurance policy.
00:15:54 You don't give up, do you?
00:15:56 I usually do.
00:15:58 But I tried a little extra hard this time.
00:16:02 What do you know?
00:16:30 I just remembered something.
00:16:32 It's my birthday.
00:16:33 Yeah, today.
00:16:35 Congratulations.
00:16:36 No kidding.
00:16:37 I'll tell you something, big man.
00:16:39 I never spent a birthday with a better guy.
00:16:41 When I heard that you're spitting that judge's face, I sensed in myself a buddy.
00:16:46 A stand-up guy.
00:16:48 You talk too much.
00:16:49 In front of these squirts?
00:16:50 Go on, a couple of dopey cops.
00:16:53 I don't even know they're sitting there.
00:16:56 Come on, cheer up, big man.
00:16:57 It's my birthday party.
00:16:59 We get a free feed tonight.
00:17:02 Arsening.
00:17:03 Next stop is Arsening.
00:17:16 Yes.
00:17:17 Next stop, Arsening.
00:17:20 Plenty of jobs here.
00:17:22 Even for the unlucky ones.
00:17:25 And no prejudice.
00:17:29 359, 358.
00:17:37 354.
00:17:41 From the old lady, Nick?
00:17:43 No, I got my own back again.
00:17:45 Well, that's a second one, ain't it?
00:17:47 Yeah.
00:17:50 She hasn't written for three months.
00:17:53 She'll probably no longer at this address.
00:17:57 It just doesn't make sense.
00:17:59 Now take it easy, Nick.
00:18:00 Quit stewing.
00:18:01 Everything was all right three months ago.
00:18:04 She wrote and said everything was all right.
00:18:08 Then all of a sudden...
00:18:11 I've got to find out about it.
00:18:13 You can find out.
00:18:14 Ask Chip's coonie.
00:18:16 You know him, don't you?
00:18:17 Used to, but how am I going to ask him?
00:18:20 He's coming up here on a new rap.
00:18:23 Kids.
00:18:26 She knows how to worry about them.
00:18:29 She ought to write.
00:18:32 [engine running]
00:18:51 Hey, Nick.
00:18:55 Chip's coonie.
00:19:08 Harry, get to Chip's coonie.
00:19:10 See if he knows what's happened to my missus.
00:19:25 [engine running]
00:19:43 She's dead.
00:19:44 Dead?
00:19:45 What happened?
00:19:46 [engine running]
00:20:15 [engine stops]
00:20:18 [engine starts]

00:21:27 There are some things you just don't want to talk about.
00:21:32 I kept away as long as I could.
00:21:34 And then finally, one Sunday afternoon, I got the courage and went up to see him.
00:21:45 Take a seat, please, Miss.
00:21:50 Send in A-106-180.
00:21:54 Check.
00:21:56 [door opens]
00:21:59 [door closes]
00:22:02 [silence]
00:22:30 [door closes]
00:22:33 Hello, Nick.
00:22:35 Oh, don't you remember me?
00:22:37 Sure.
00:22:38 Nettie.
00:22:41 You used to take care of my kids.
00:22:43 Uh-huh.
00:22:44 How are you?
00:22:45 I'm all right.
00:22:47 Nick, I-- I moved away before it happened.
00:22:53 Yeah.
00:22:56 Marie and I had a fight.
00:22:58 And then a few weeks later, I moved away.
00:23:02 And just two weeks ago, I found out about it.
00:23:09 I met a former neighbor.
00:23:11 She told you?
00:23:13 Yes.
00:23:15 I felt so bad about the kids.
00:23:18 I-- I inquired at the police, and I found out that-- well, they sent me to a place,
00:23:23 and I found out they were all right.
00:23:25 You saw the kids?
00:23:26 Yes.
00:23:27 They were all right?
00:23:28 Oh, yes.
00:23:29 They look swell.
00:23:30 Where are they?
00:23:31 In an orphanage outside of New York, a big place.
00:23:35 I was going to write and tell you about it.
00:23:37 And then I thought maybe I'd better come see you.
00:23:42 I feel so sorry about everything, Nick.
00:23:49 Tell me about Marie.
00:23:52 She wasn't feeling very well when I saw her the last time.
00:23:58 What did you fight about?
00:23:59 Oh, I-- I don't remember anymore.
00:24:07 OK.
00:24:08 I don't, honestly.
00:24:16 Was she unhappy?
00:24:18 Oh, yes.
00:24:25 Drinking?
00:24:27 Uh-huh.
00:24:33 Anything else?
00:24:35 No, no, no, no.
00:24:38 What happened?
00:24:40 You came here to tell me what happened.
00:24:43 Why did you change your mind?
00:24:45 Scared of hurting me?
00:24:48 Look, Nettie, I'm the kind of guy you can't hurt.
00:24:56 It doesn't matter.
00:24:58 Oh, Nick!
00:25:05 You told me.
00:25:09 Who is the guy?
00:25:11 Rizzo.
00:25:14 Rizzo.
00:25:19 I had to come see you.
00:25:21 I don't know why.
00:25:23 I'm sorry.
00:25:26 I don't want to cry.
00:25:31 Nobody's cried over me for a long time.
00:25:36 Rizzo.
00:25:41 When did it start?
00:25:43 No, never mind.
00:25:46 Is there-- is there anything I can do for you?
00:25:51 Yeah.
00:25:53 Will you see the kids again?
00:25:54 Mm-hmm.
00:25:56 Tell them you heard from me and I'm supposed to be working in South America.
00:26:02 Do that, will you?
00:26:03 Yes, yes, that's what I used to tell them before I moved away.
00:26:09 Are you alone?
00:26:12 Yes.
00:26:14 I got a good job in a music store.
00:26:19 Well, Nettie, thanks for coming to see me.
00:26:23 Fine.
00:26:24 I'll write you soon.
00:26:27 Thanks.
00:26:45 Nick Bianco, urgent business.
00:26:48 Did he write this himself?
00:26:50 Yes, sir.
00:26:52 Good handwriting.
00:26:54 He's not a bad guy.
00:26:56 Bring him in.
00:26:57 Yes, sir.
00:27:05 All right, Bianco.
00:27:22 Well, Nick, you haven't been in here before, but I've had good reports on you.
00:27:26 Something's gone wrong, I suppose.
00:27:30 All right, Nick, get it off your chest.
00:27:33 Well, I used up all my letters for this month, but they came back saying the person no longer lived at the address.
00:27:40 I'd like to send another letter off.
00:27:43 I was told that you had to give permission.
00:27:46 That's right, if it's urgent.
00:27:49 Yes, sir, it's very urgent.
00:27:51 Who is the letter going to?
00:27:53 To the assistant DA, Mr. DeAngelo.
00:27:56 Hmm.
00:27:58 You better let me send it.
00:28:00 He'll read it soon enough.
00:28:01 Yes, sir, you can send it.
00:28:03 Tell him that Nick Bianco wants to cash in on his insurance policy.
00:28:08 Nothing else?
00:28:10 No, sir, he'll understand that.
00:28:12 I'll send it this afternoon.
00:28:14 Thanks.
00:28:15 Oh, Nick, you need a little more exercise.
00:28:18 How about putting Bianco on the ball team, Joe?
00:28:21 We can use him.
00:28:23 He play ball?
00:28:25 I'm going to.
00:28:27 Thanks.
00:28:30 [door closes]
00:28:58 Hello, Bianco.
00:29:00 Have a seat.
00:29:03 How are you?
00:29:05 Fine.
00:29:06 Did you have a nice ride, Bianco?
00:29:09 The warden phoned me, said he thought it might be important.
00:29:12 Is it?
00:29:13 Yeah.
00:29:14 Yes, sir.
00:29:15 Yeah, will do.
00:29:17 Before we get to talking, Bianco, there are a few things I'd like to explain.
00:29:22 Three years ago, I offered to help you.
00:29:25 I'm in no position to offer the same help now.
00:29:28 I see.
00:29:30 My insurance policy has lapsed, eh?
00:29:33 I would say so.
00:29:36 I see.
00:29:39 Well, that's that, huh?
00:29:41 That's that.
00:29:43 What about my kids?
00:29:45 How do you mean?
00:29:47 Could I get to see them?
00:29:49 As payment?
00:29:51 I'm not doing this for pay.
00:29:53 I'm asking you if I could get to see them as a favor.
00:29:56 I think we can take care of that.
00:29:58 Then I can see the kids.
00:30:00 I'm pretty sure.
00:30:04 Okay.
00:30:06 I want to settle one more thing before you talk, Bianco.
00:30:11 We get a lot of offers from men in prison who feel that they'd like to do a little squealing.
00:30:16 Prisoners go a little cracked or like a little ride into town.
00:30:22 You knew what you wanted once.
00:30:25 I'd like to know what changed you.
00:30:28 It will give me a chance to decide on whether your story is reliable enough to go to work on.
00:30:35 Well, when I went up, I told you my family was being taken care of.
00:30:43 I was wrong.
00:30:45 My wife killed herself.
00:30:48 She stuck her head in a gas stove.
00:30:55 You want to talk about the peacock jewelry job?
00:31:02 Yeah.
00:31:03 Who else was on it?
00:31:04 Eddie Williams.
00:31:05 Big Ed?
00:31:07 Yeah.
00:31:08 Who else?
00:31:09 Tony Mangoni.
00:31:11 Now him?
00:31:12 Yeah.
00:31:13 Who else?
00:31:14 Pete Rizzo.
00:31:16 Rizzo, eh?
00:31:19 Who else?
00:31:21 Me.
00:31:22 Any more?
00:31:23 No.
00:31:25 Who drove the car?
00:31:26 Pete Rizzo.
00:31:28 You, Mangoni, and Williams went in, is that it?
00:31:30 Yes.
00:31:31 Take it easy.
00:31:33 Who slugged old man Peacock?
00:31:35 Mangoni.
00:31:37 If it's on the level, Peacock's a cinch to identify Mangoni and Williams.
00:31:41 Who was the fence you used on this job?
00:31:44 I don't know.
00:31:45 I didn't handle it.
00:31:46 It was grabbed before.
00:31:48 That's right.
00:31:49 Who would have handled it?
00:31:50 Rizzo.
00:31:51 Would Rizzo have gone to the fence direct?
00:31:54 No.
00:31:55 You called somebody first, and they told you where to go?
00:31:57 Yeah.
00:31:58 Who did you phone?
00:32:00 Hauser.
00:32:01 Earl Hauser.
00:32:03 Another imminent shyster with connections that ought to...
00:32:07 I think I'm going to keep you down here in the city jail for a while.
00:32:10 I want you to go on cooperating with us.
00:32:13 You mean go on being a stoolie?
00:32:16 That's what I mean.
00:32:18 Okay.
00:32:20 If...
00:32:21 If what?
00:32:23 I could see my kids once in a while.
00:32:28 You can see them.
00:32:30 When your pals get pulled in,
00:32:32 they're going to make a pretty good guess that you did the singing.
00:32:35 I don't care.
00:32:36 I do.
00:32:37 No sense in getting you killed.
00:32:40 There are one or two things we can do to throw them off.
00:32:44 What's some job you did that you didn't get caught on?
00:32:48 Well, that's some...
00:32:50 You've got to trust me.
00:32:52 Thompson Fur Company, four years ago last March.
00:33:01 Were any of these three on that job with you?
00:33:04 Rizzo.
00:33:06 We'll book Bianco here on the Thompson Fur job.
00:33:09 That'll cover why we brought him here.
00:33:11 Can I check another rap?
00:33:12 No, no. We'll drop the case later for insufficient evidence.
00:33:15 I'm just covering it.
00:33:16 Why?
00:33:17 I told you.
00:33:18 I'm going to want to use you again.
00:33:20 You've got to be in the clear with Hauser and everybody that knows you.
00:33:22 I'll go pick up Rizzo.
00:33:23 No, leave him alone. Don't touch him.
00:33:25 Rizzo drove the car.
00:33:27 There's no one to identify him except Nick here.
00:33:29 That won't stand up.
00:33:31 You pick up the other two.
00:33:33 Then it'll look to the mob as if Rizzo is a stoolie and we've made a deal with him.
00:33:37 You don't like Rizzo particularly, do you?
00:33:41 No.
00:33:43 I'm going to give you some instructions, Nick.
00:33:45 Get a hold of your lawyer, Mr. Earl Hauser.
00:33:49 Tell him about the Thompson rap.
00:33:51 Tell him you think somebody is squealed.
00:33:53 Yeah.
00:33:55 Your side of the fence is...
00:33:59 almost as dirty as mine.
00:34:02 With one big difference.
00:34:04 We hurt bad people, not good ones.
00:34:07 That's right.
00:34:10 Watch your step with Hauser.
00:34:12 He's a sharp operator.
00:34:14 And remember,
00:34:16 you're no good to me if he tumbles to anything.
00:34:18 He won't tumble.
00:34:20 When do I see my kids?
00:34:24 I'll take care of that tomorrow.
00:34:26 Thanks.
00:34:31 Well, I...
00:34:32 I'm a squealer now.
00:34:35 Feel bad about it, Nick?
00:34:37 No.
00:34:42 Come on.
00:34:44 See you later.
00:34:45 So long.
00:34:47 (FOOTSTEPS)
00:34:49 I'm nervous.
00:35:07 Don't worry.
00:35:08 They used to jump up on me and grab my ears.
00:35:11 I used to...
00:35:12 Good morning, sister.
00:35:13 Good morning.
00:35:14 We're from the district attorney's office.
00:35:16 I phoned the mother superior yesterday about seeing the Bianco children.
00:35:19 Yes, I know.
00:35:20 Will you come with me, please?
00:35:22 Thank you.
00:35:23 Will you wait in here, please?
00:35:27 Thank you.
00:35:29 Which one of you gentlemen is Mr. Bianco?
00:35:33 That's me.
00:35:37 How do you do?
00:35:38 I'll get Sister Veronica.
00:35:40 (FOOTSTEPS)
00:35:42 Not a bad place for kids.
00:36:02 Yeah.
00:36:09 Sister Veronica?
00:36:10 Yes.
00:36:11 This is your father.
00:36:12 I know.
00:36:13 I recognized him.
00:36:15 Hello, Father.
00:36:17 Hello.
00:36:19 Connie.
00:36:27 Rosie.
00:36:30 Sister Veronica told us you were coming today.
00:36:34 You've been away a very long time.
00:36:36 You look different.
00:36:38 I thought you would have white hair.
00:36:40 No, I ain't.
00:36:42 Aren't you going to kiss your father?
00:36:45 Oh, Daddy!
00:36:49 Nobody else here has a daddy, has they, Sister Veronica?
00:37:00 Nobody else.
00:37:06 Daddy, Mama got hurt and we waited for you
00:37:11 and said prayers for you every night
00:37:14 and God sent you back.
00:37:16 They're having their music lesson, Mr. Bianco.
00:37:22 Would you care to come in the next room and listen to them play the piano?
00:37:26 Yeah.
00:37:27 Take it easy.
00:37:36 (PIANO PLAYING)
00:37:38 Sister Teresa, would you let Concetta have her lesson first, please?
00:37:51 Why, of course, Sister.
00:37:52 Will you please wait over there, Eileen?
00:37:54 All right, Sister.
00:37:55 Thank you, dear.
00:37:56 Come on.
00:37:57 I play the waterfall.
00:38:00 Rosaria is way back yet.
00:38:02 May I play it, Sister Veronica?
00:38:04 Of course, dear.
00:38:05 (PIANO PLAYING)
00:38:15 (PIANO PLAYING)
00:38:17 Bianco, somebody to see you.
00:38:43 Who?
00:38:44 Your lawyer, Earl Hauser.
00:38:45 Oh.
00:38:46 Well, well.
00:39:05 We meet again, eh?
00:39:07 Glad to see you, Nick.
00:39:08 I received your rather surprising message this morning
00:39:11 and may I tell you I dropped everything and came right over.
00:39:13 Thanks.
00:39:14 Sit down, son. Sit down.
00:39:16 How, uh...
00:39:20 How long have they had you here?
00:39:22 Since yesterday.
00:39:23 Well, we can say this much for it.
00:39:27 It's a change, at least.
00:39:28 I don't like it.
00:39:29 Of course not.
00:39:31 I was just making a bad joke.
00:39:33 Uh, you...
00:39:36 You've had quite a lot of trouble, I hear.
00:39:40 Besides this.
00:39:41 I mean about your wife.
00:39:44 Yeah.
00:39:45 Maybe it wouldn't have happened if you'd done your job like you said.
00:39:48 You mean, uh, about your parole?
00:39:51 Yeah, that's what I mean.
00:39:53 I've been pushing it, Nick.
00:39:54 And I'm going to get it.
00:39:56 I gave you my word and I still give it to you.
00:39:59 I'm going to put that parole through.
00:40:02 Just so you keep plugging.
00:40:03 Now, uh, let's hear about this new trouble.
00:40:09 Have they made any specific charge?
00:40:11 Yeah.
00:40:12 Thompson Fur Company heist.
00:40:15 Four years ago.
00:40:17 Oh.
00:40:19 That's reaching back.
00:40:21 Somebody must have it in for you.
00:40:24 That's one way of looking at it.
00:40:25 How do you look at it?
00:40:28 Somebody's doing some squealing.
00:40:31 Oh, I see.
00:40:34 Who's handling this in the DA's office?
00:40:37 D'Angelo.
00:40:38 Oh.
00:40:39 Our old friend.
00:40:41 You think he's finally got a hold of a squealer?
00:40:45 That's what I think.
00:40:48 Were you under suspicion for the Thompson job at the time?
00:40:52 No.
00:40:53 I see.
00:40:55 Who were you running around with in those days, Nick?
00:41:00 I used to hang around with Pete Rizzo.
00:41:02 He was your partner?
00:41:04 Yeah, Rizzo was my partner.
00:41:07 Pete Rizzo.
00:41:08 Did D'Angelo mention his name when he talked to you?
00:41:13 Nobody mentioned his name.
00:41:16 I don't think they've got much of a case, Nick.
00:41:21 When D'Angelo finds out that he's not going to scare you out of anything, I'll wager he drops it.
00:41:27 I hope so.
00:41:28 That's all I need is another rap hung on me and I'll never get my parole.
00:41:32 Everything's going to be all right.
00:41:36 I'll see you in a week, Nick.
00:41:37 If they start roughing you up, let me know.
00:41:40 I can take care of myself.
00:41:42 Fine.
00:41:43 Goodbye, Nick.
00:41:44 Fred?
00:42:02 Are you alone?
00:42:05 Get hold of Tommy Udo on the phone.
00:42:07 No.
00:42:09 Tell him I want to see him.
00:42:11 No, not here.
00:42:13 He know where.
00:42:15 Yes, right away.
00:42:17 Yes, right away.
00:42:19 [door opens]

00:42:54 [music]
00:42:55 [music]
00:43:24 It's open.
00:43:25 Your friend Peter?
00:43:48 Yeah.
00:43:50 Where's the squirt?
00:43:53 Not home.
00:43:54 Come home late tonight, maybe.
00:43:57 After dinner sometime.
00:43:59 Maybe.
00:44:01 Where'd he go to?
00:44:02 Peter?
00:44:03 How I know where Peter go.
00:44:06 Up town, down town, Peter Bolligan.
00:44:09 Anywhere.
00:44:11 [laughs]
00:44:12 [laughs]
00:44:13 [laughs]
00:44:40 [laughs]
00:44:41 Back after dinner sometime.
00:44:44 [laughs]
00:44:47 Double crossing squealers both of you.
00:44:50 What's the matter?
00:44:51 I don't know nothing.
00:44:52 Some yellow squirt Peter, huh?
00:44:53 Took a powder, huh?
00:44:55 That rat.
00:44:57 Where is he?
00:45:02 Where'd he go?
00:45:06 I'm asking you, where's that squealing son of yours?
00:45:09 Huh?
00:45:12 [laughs]
00:45:14 You think a squealer can get away from me?
00:45:19 Huh?
00:45:21 [laughs]
00:45:23 You know what I do to squealers?
00:45:24 I let them have it in the belly.
00:45:28 So they can roll around for a long time thinking it over.
00:45:35 [crickets chirping]
00:45:37 You're worse than him.
00:45:49 Keep telling me he's coming back.
00:45:52 You lying old hag.
00:45:56 Huh.
00:45:59 [laughs]
00:46:03 [laughs]
00:46:04 No.
00:46:06 Let me go.
00:46:08 On a train, huh?
00:46:10 Hey, where you going?
00:46:12 No, no.
00:46:14 This is for no one to see.
00:46:16 Not outside, I can't move.
00:46:18 I'm sick.
00:46:20 No, no, no.
00:46:22 [screams]
00:46:24 [crash]
00:46:26 [crash]
00:46:27 [phone rings]
00:46:48 [phone rings]
00:46:49 [phone rings]
00:46:52 [phone rings]
00:46:55 Hello?
00:46:57 Yes?
00:46:59 You ain't gonna be bothered with that squealer for a long time.
00:47:03 Yeah, skip town before I get there.
00:47:07 'Cause he's gonna read something in the papers.
00:47:12 And it's gonna make him take off a South America description.
00:47:18 [laughs]
00:47:19 Never mind that.
00:47:21 You read it too.
00:47:23 All right, Tom.
00:47:25 Just so you're sure there isn't gonna be any more talking.
00:47:29 Fine.
00:47:31 Good work.
00:47:33 [clatter]
00:47:35 [train rumbling]
00:47:41 [train rumbling]
00:47:42 [door creaks]
00:47:49 [door creaks]
00:47:57 This must never go on.
00:48:02 I'll see.
00:48:05 Is that for me, Mrs. Kellogg?
00:48:07 Yes, there's a gentleman to see you.
00:48:10 Nick!
00:48:12 Oh, for goodness sakes, hello!
00:48:14 There's a phone call for Nick Bianco, that's me.
00:48:17 Will you call me, please?
00:48:19 Sure.
00:48:21 Come on in, please.
00:48:26 Oh, Nick, I can hardly believe it.
00:48:31 You're out, when? You didn't tell me last week.
00:48:34 I didn't know last week.
00:48:36 They just told me this morning.
00:48:38 Oh, Nick, it's wonderful to see you like this.
00:48:41 Like you used to be.
00:48:43 I mean, not inside a jail or anything.
00:48:45 I know.
00:48:47 I came right here, I was hoping you'd be home.
00:48:49 Oh, I almost went to the movies.
00:48:51 I was just thinking, oh, Nick, what happened?
00:48:54 I got a parole.
00:48:56 No, that's wonderful.
00:48:58 Have you had dinner?
00:49:00 You must be hungry.
00:49:01 I'll get you something to eat.
00:49:03 Oh, I waited.
00:49:15 Mr. Bianco, your call.
00:49:20 Thanks, I'll be right down.
00:49:22 Mr. Bianco, your call.
00:49:30 Mr. Bianco, your call.
00:49:32 Hello?
00:49:42 Yeah.
00:49:44 Nick, I thought you might be interested to know
00:49:46 that I just had a call from Mr. Hauser.
00:49:48 Yeah, he wanted to do a little crowing about your parole.
00:49:53 Thinks he got it over my dead body.
00:49:55 I'll let him go right on thinking so.
00:49:58 Nick, about tonight.
00:50:00 Your man will be at St. Nicholas Arena,
00:50:03 at ringside. Got it?
00:50:05 I got it.
00:50:07 Okay, I will.
00:50:10 Yes, sir.
00:50:14 Goodbye.
00:50:17 Goodbye.
00:50:18 I've got to go.
00:50:32 Oh, Nick, where?
00:50:34 Couldn't we go for dinner?
00:50:36 Not tonight.
00:50:38 Oh, Nick, don't go away like this.
00:50:40 I've got to.
00:50:42 Nick, I don't want anything to happen.
00:50:44 Look, you've got to trust me.
00:50:46 Well, then tell me where you're going, please.
00:50:47 I can't. I don't want you to know.
00:50:49 I thought you wanted me.
00:50:51 I thought when you kissed me...
00:50:53 You thought right.
00:50:55 I want you and I want my kids, too.
00:50:57 But you've got to trust me.
00:50:59 I'm on a job and I might not see you for a while.
00:51:02 Hey, stop looking at me like that.
00:51:07 Look at me the way you did upstairs.
00:51:10 I'll need that look.
00:51:13 Come on.
00:51:16 Oh, Nick.
00:51:17 Atta girl.
00:51:19 I'll see you as soon as I can.
00:51:21 Get out of my way!
00:51:42 Rip it out of his head!
00:51:43 Rip it out of his head!
00:51:49 Come on, rip this out of his head!
00:51:51 Come on, rip the other eye!
00:51:57 Come on, rip the other eye!
00:51:59 Come on, come on, come on!
00:52:01 Tear it out of his head!
00:52:03 Rip it out of his head!
00:52:04 Cut the shoving.
00:52:17 Hey, Nick, it's me.
00:52:19 How are you, Tommy?
00:52:21 What do you know to beat me?
00:52:23 Come on, let's get out of here so we can talk.
00:52:25 Come on, baby.
00:52:27 Hello, Tommy.
00:52:31 Come on, right inside.
00:52:32 Your table, Tommy.
00:52:38 Okay, okay.
00:52:39 Waiter.
00:52:43 Champagne, once a month, we celebrate.
00:52:45 All right, Tommy.
00:52:46 You'll be jumping in a couple hours.
00:52:53 Always hard when you first get out, it takes you a while to get started.
00:52:56 This place will do it.
00:52:58 Always come here when I've sprung.
00:53:00 What a big man, that early house.
00:53:01 Remember what I told you?
00:53:03 Take your rap, leave it to early, always gets you out.
00:53:05 Here you are, Mr. Udo.
00:53:07 Mr. Udo.
00:53:09 Yes, sir.
00:53:11 How do you like that, huh?
00:53:12 That's class, huh?
00:53:14 Ain't been to bed for a week.
00:53:17 Can't stand sleeping, that's for squeaks.
00:53:19 Haven't I met you some ways before, Mr. Bianco?
00:53:22 I don't think so.
00:53:24 Don't stick your nose in, buster, we're talking.
00:53:26 We're pals.
00:53:29 Hey, waiter.
00:53:30 Bring another bottle, keep him coming.
00:53:33 How do you like that music, man?
00:53:44 Right upstairs.
00:53:46 Come on, send it, Jack.
00:53:47 What do you got to do, Nick?
00:53:55 What's on the line?
00:53:57 I ain't figured it out yet.
00:53:58 Gotta have some fun first, I'm behind three years.
00:54:00 It's talking, it's talking.
00:54:02 Heard about me, didn't you?
00:54:08 No.
00:54:10 In all the papers.
00:54:11 Picked me up for a murder rap.
00:54:13 Was it all the papers?
00:54:15 Yeah.
00:54:17 Yeah, sure, ask her, huh, buster?
00:54:18 Sure, the papers were all about Tommy, with his picture.
00:54:20 The one I don't like.
00:54:22 What do you mean you don't like?
00:54:24 What's the matter with you?
00:54:26 I don't like it when they show you with a number on it.
00:54:28 Go on, who notices that, not a squinch.
00:54:31 I like the one we took together.
00:54:33 Nobody asked you.
00:54:34 Listen, I'm gonna be busy, you go home.
00:54:37 Wait a minute, who you talking to?
00:54:40 Get out.
00:54:42 We're the pals, see, got things to do.
00:54:44 Don't want no old ladies around.
00:54:46 You ain't calling me an old lady.
00:54:48 Get out.
00:54:50 You want something?
00:54:55 No.
00:54:56 No.
00:54:58 Wait in your joint for me.
00:54:59 Don't go out, you understand?
00:55:01 Yeah.
00:55:03 A lot of good this mug's gonna do you.
00:55:06 Beat it.
00:55:07 Dames ain't no good if you wanna have some fun.
00:55:18 Come on, pal, drink up, drink up, drink up.
00:55:21 You let you go, huh?
00:55:22 Oh, the bull.
00:55:24 Gee, sure.
00:55:25 There was a squirt says he seen me bending over Larry Young
00:55:33 right after he was plugged.
00:55:35 Then he says he ain't sure it was me he seen.
00:55:40 Larry Young.
00:55:42 He used to own a big cafe joint, didn't he?
00:55:45 Yeah, he used to.
00:55:48 Used to own a big cafe joint, didn't he?
00:55:50 A squirt.
00:55:51 Pushing the wrong guys around.
00:55:53 He got it good.
00:55:56 Him and his college rings.
00:55:59 Yeah.
00:56:00 He was with the college gang, I didn't know that.
00:56:03 Nah, nah, not a gang, not a gang.
00:56:05 A ring, ring on his finger.
00:56:06 Worth a couple of bucks.
00:56:08 This joint's dead, it's sour.
00:56:15 You wanna have fun, don't you?
00:56:17 So we get out of here.
00:56:18 Go someplace where they got some interest.
00:56:21 What do you say, pal?
00:56:26 I'm three years behind.
00:56:28 Fancy.
00:56:30 Stick to me, big man, you'll catch up.
00:56:33 Come on, we shake this, don't you?
00:56:37 Shake this, don't you?
00:56:38 Okay, man.
00:56:51 Come on.
00:57:06 Hello, Mr. Seller.
00:57:07 Hello, Tommy.
00:57:08 He's a pal, it's okay.
00:57:10 Thanks.
00:57:13 Come on, Nick.
00:57:14 What's that funny smell?
00:57:22 That's perfume.
00:57:23 After we left the first joint,
00:57:29 he began to talk.
00:57:31 He said he had done the Larry Young job.
00:57:35 Alone?
00:57:36 Yeah.
00:57:37 He didn't know the guy's name had hired him,
00:57:40 he never even saw him before.
00:57:42 Did he describe him?
00:57:43 No, I couldn't push that.
00:57:45 So you got nothing.
00:57:46 Go on, Nick.
00:57:48 Well, there's two things.
00:57:50 He copped a ring off Larry Young,
00:57:53 a gold ring from some college.
00:57:55 His girl Buster's got it, but she never wears it.
00:57:58 It's no good except as a souvenir.
00:58:00 Then there's a guy that saw the shooting,
00:58:02 a fellow that you don't know,
00:58:03 he's called Sammy,
00:58:04 sort of a panhandler.
00:58:06 He was coming up to get a buck off Larry Young
00:58:09 when you don't came along.
00:58:11 You don't said that Sammy saw the shooting and beat him.
00:58:14 Sammy who?
00:58:15 I don't know his last name.
00:58:17 Well, that does it.
00:58:19 All we've got to do is find Sammy,
00:58:22 produce the ring, we've got a case.
00:58:23 Congratulations, Nick.
00:58:25 Thanks.
00:58:26 You had quite a time, didn't you?
00:58:27 Yeah.
00:58:29 I wouldn't want to go through that again.
00:58:33 I don't think you'll have to.
00:58:34 That's all?
00:58:37 That's all.
00:58:38 You might find out about Sammy
00:58:41 by asking some of Larry Young's friends.
00:58:43 We may do that.
00:58:44 So long.
00:58:47 Hey.
00:58:51 Everything all right?
00:58:55 Yeah.
00:58:56 I'm going to be all right.
00:58:58 All right.
00:58:59 Daddy, there he is.
00:59:14 Larry.
00:59:15 Larry, I'll...
00:59:21 (car engine)
00:59:23 Hey.
00:59:30 Hey, watch it.
00:59:36 Ah, oops.
00:59:39 (whistle)
00:59:41 Don't come in the house until you get those cases
00:59:46 or I'll bump you one.
00:59:50 Sammy.
00:59:51 (whistle)
00:59:57 Hi.
00:59:58 Hey, hey, I ain't cleaned up yet.
01:00:03 Oh, who cares?
01:00:04 Look, all married ladies don't jump on their husbands in public.
01:00:06 I'm not old and I'm not a lady.
01:00:08 I'll get the girls.
01:00:16 They're taking off their skates.
01:00:17 How have they been?
01:00:18 Wonderful.
01:00:20 Nick, you're not going to wash the sink.
01:00:22 We have a bathroom.
01:00:23 Yeah, the kids are using it.
01:00:24 This will be okay.
01:00:25 Hey, get those suds off you.
01:00:45 Hey, what do you want me to do, huh?
01:00:47 That's right, more yet.
01:00:48 Look, look, I'm five and a half years old.
01:00:50 That's what you think.
01:00:52 Here, let me dry you.
01:00:54 Feels good.
01:00:56 But ain't very practical.
01:00:58 Give me that towel.
01:00:59 You know, there may be worse jobs than a brickyard.
01:01:02 But there ain't many dirtier.
01:01:04 That must be awful.
01:01:05 It ain't awful.
01:01:07 Come here.
01:01:12 In the kitchen?
01:01:13 Oh, Nick.
01:01:14 You know, I'm not a cook.
01:01:15 In the kitchen?
01:01:16 Oh, Nick.
01:01:17 You know, I ain't the kind of guy that's used to sitting around home.
01:01:19 I know.
01:01:20 Worries me sometimes.
01:01:21 Does, huh?
01:01:22 Mm-hmm, of course.
01:01:23 Coming home every night, it's just nothing.
01:01:26 That's right.
01:01:27 No excitement or anything?
01:01:29 That's right.
01:01:31 Every day the same as every other day.
01:01:32 Nick, please, don't make me worry too much.
01:01:36 That's what I need.
01:01:37 Someone to worry about me all the time.
01:01:39 Don't you let me get away for one minute.
01:01:43 Maybe I'll start busting into jewelry stores with a rod in my hand.
01:01:46 That's what you think, huh?
01:01:47 Oh, no, Nick, you wouldn't.
01:01:48 Maybe I wouldn't.
01:01:50 But you hang on.
01:01:51 Oh, I will.
01:01:52 I'm mad about you.
01:01:54 That's all I think of.
01:01:56 You.
01:01:58 I've wanted you ever since I was a girl, long ago.
01:02:01 When I used to look at you,
01:02:04 they were just like now.
01:02:06 Every time you kiss me, I almost pass out.
01:02:12 Honestly.
01:02:13 Oh, isn't that silly for an old married woman to talk like that?
01:02:17 No, it ain't.
01:02:18 I gotta make dinner.
01:02:21 Who's stopping you?
01:02:23 I'm busy.
01:02:24 Here.
01:02:26 You open this.
01:02:27 Oh, I forgot.
01:02:29 There was a phone call for you.
01:02:30 Yeah? Who?
01:02:31 Mr. DeAngelo.
01:02:32 What do you want?
01:02:34 He wants to see you Saturday afternoon.
01:02:36 Did he say what for?
01:02:39 No.
01:02:40 It couldn't have been anything wrong.
01:02:41 He was very nice.
01:02:42 For goodness sakes, I don't know what I'm looking for.
01:02:47 You get me so upset.
01:02:49 You shouldn't come in the kitchen and kiss me when I've got dinner to cook.
01:02:52 Oh, yes.
01:02:54 Forget it.
01:02:55 Now, leave me alone.
01:02:56 Don't bother me.
01:02:57 We go to trial on Monday.
01:03:09 I've arranged for you to get Wednesday off from your work.
01:03:11 You say you got a sure case?
01:03:14 I wouldn't go to trial otherwise.
01:03:16 Then, what do you need me for?
01:03:19 I need your evidence first, Nick.
01:03:21 I've built the whole case that way.
01:03:24 Evidence from a stoolie and a squealer?
01:03:27 That's not gonna help.
01:03:29 We've got the ring, we've got Sammy.
01:03:31 And they'll verify everything you say when we introduce them.
01:03:35 I see.
01:03:37 I go on the stand, huh?
01:03:39 Yeah.
01:03:41 What if I don't?
01:03:44 You've got no choice.
01:03:46 You mean the DA will kill my parole?
01:03:49 What will you expect, Nick?
01:03:52 I've got kids.
01:03:54 I've got a home.
01:03:56 People know me like that.
01:03:58 Look, I don't care about me.
01:04:02 Why...
01:04:04 Why take it out on them?
01:04:06 Just because I was a mug once...
01:04:07 Will you listen to me?
01:04:09 Well, I...
01:04:10 Go ahead.
01:04:17 Makes no difference. I've got no other way out.
01:04:20 You're talking like a fool, Nick.
01:04:26 You're known as Nick Cavallo in your town.
01:04:29 Your kids are going to school under that name.
01:04:32 Who's gonna connect you with Nick Bianco?
01:04:35 And how?
01:04:36 My pictures in the newspapers.
01:04:38 There won't be any pictures.
01:04:40 How do you know?
01:04:41 We won't let them take any.
01:04:42 We won't give any out.
01:04:43 Satisfied?
01:04:45 Well, I don't help.
01:04:49 What's the matter now?
01:04:52 I...
01:04:54 Nothing. I was just thinking of you, though.
01:04:57 When he finds out...
01:04:58 Look, Nick, I know it isn't gonna be fun.
01:05:00 But remember this.
01:05:01 When it's over, you'll be through.
01:05:04 Yeah, that's something.
01:05:06 I'll try to remember that.
01:05:09 When I'm on the witness stand singing.
01:05:12 - Bye, Rosie! - Bye, Daddy!
01:05:17 Come on, Daddy, play train with us!
01:05:27 Come on, Daddy, please!
01:05:30 Oh, Daddy, come on, please!
01:05:33 Not now.
01:05:34 Daddy, please, come on, play train with us!
01:05:41 Hello?
01:05:58 Yeah, this is Nick.
01:06:00 Well, Nick, I... I got some bad news for you.
01:06:04 The jury came in a half hour ago with a verdict in the Udo case.
01:06:10 Not guilty.
01:06:12 Hello? Nick?
01:06:16 Yeah.
01:06:18 Even the fact that Udo had Larry Young's ring didn't help.
01:06:22 Hauser got over the point that there were 400 rings just like it made for Young's graduating class.
01:06:29 The jury went for it.
01:06:30 Udo went free as soon as the verdict was read.
01:06:34 They got a tail on him, but he's pretty fast.
01:06:37 Might shake him, so keep your eyes open.
01:06:40 You better come in and see me tomorrow.
01:06:45 We're ready to do everything we can to help you, Nick.
01:06:49 Goodbye.
01:06:52 Goodbye.
01:06:53 Goodbye.

01:08:22 [music playing]
01:08:25 That was the back screen door.
01:08:40 The wind blew it shut.
01:08:43 Nick, what is it?
01:08:46 It's the third time you've jumped up.
01:08:48 I can't fall asleep.
01:08:49 That's all.
01:08:50 Forget it.
01:08:51 Ever since Mr. D'Angelo called, you--
01:08:55 Nick, if something's happened, I'll read about it in the papers.
01:09:00 Maybe I can help you.
01:09:02 Stop talking about it and forget it, will you, honey?
01:09:05 You've been listening for something.
01:09:07 All night, you've been lying there listening for something.
01:09:11 Yeah, you're right.
01:09:13 You'll read about it in the papers.
01:09:18 Maybe you can help me.
01:09:23 They let Tommy Udoff.
01:09:26 Oh, Nick.
01:09:27 He's loose.
01:09:28 After what you did.
01:09:30 Yeah.
01:09:32 That was the wind again.
01:09:33 I can't help it.
01:09:34 I'm just jumping.
01:09:36 The police.
01:09:37 We'll call them.
01:09:38 The police can't help me.
01:09:41 Look, honey, I've got to go downstairs.
01:09:45 [music playing]
01:09:48 [music playing]
01:09:51 [music playing]
01:10:20 He won't come tonight, Nick.
01:10:23 Maybe he won't.
01:10:26 Look, I've got to talk to you.
01:10:32 No use hiding it.
01:10:34 He's going to come sometime.
01:10:37 You can go away.
01:10:39 Rizzo went away.
01:10:41 Remember what happened to Rizzo's maw.
01:10:45 Was that Tommy Udoff that did that?
01:10:49 Yeah.
01:10:50 We can all go away together, Nick.
01:10:57 No.
01:10:58 Some other town.
01:10:59 No.
01:11:01 Too many mugs know me.
01:11:04 They're all over.
01:11:06 All the guys I met in jail.
01:11:08 All the heisters I've known ever since I was a kid.
01:11:12 They don't stay in one place.
01:11:15 They're in every town that you can figure.
01:11:18 Coming and going.
01:11:19 I'm the guy they don't like anymore.
01:11:25 The minute they saw me, they'd go straight to Udo.
01:11:30 Wherever we went, we'd be--
01:11:34 we'd be just sitting like this, waiting.
01:11:39 Waiting for him.
01:11:42 That's no fun.
01:11:44 We've got to get the police to help us, Nick.
01:11:47 They'd be glad to.
01:11:48 Sure, they'd be glad to.
01:11:51 Well, I-- what about you and the kids while I'm at work?
01:11:57 Do you think I could work while I remember how Udo would plan
01:12:04 to take care of you and the kids?
01:12:06 You got a tough break marrying a guy like me.
01:12:12 No.
01:12:15 Shh.
01:12:16 Shh.
01:12:18 You have my kids.
01:12:19 It won't happen.
01:12:28 You won't let it happen.
01:12:29 Take it easy.
01:12:31 It won't happen.
01:12:32 If you'll help me.
01:12:33 Anything.
01:12:34 Anything.
01:12:35 Start packing.
01:12:39 Now.
01:12:41 [car approaching]
01:12:43 It's all right.
01:12:47 It's Bill Johnson coming home.
01:12:49 Start packing.
01:12:54 Now.
01:12:55 Now.
01:13:08 [car approaching]
01:13:10 [footsteps]
01:13:12 [footsteps]
01:13:40 Will you write to me?
01:13:42 Yeah.
01:13:43 Wait a minute.
01:13:46 Say, buddy, do you happen to know when the number 12 gets in?
01:14:08 No, I'm sorry.
01:14:09 I don't know.
01:14:10 Thanks.
01:14:11 Daddy!
01:14:16 Daddy!
01:14:17 Be careful.
01:14:18 Be careful.
01:14:19 Be careful.
01:14:20 Now, remember, no letters until I call you.
01:14:26 Your call.
01:14:27 By Friday.
01:14:29 Take care of the kids.
01:14:30 Yes.
01:14:31 And yourself.
01:14:32 Oh, Nick, nothing's going to happen.
01:14:33 Now, don't start worrying.
01:14:35 Look, you ought to go on a vacation.
01:14:37 I want them to have a good time.
01:14:39 I know I...
01:14:40 I know you'll always give them a good time, Nettie.
01:14:42 I promise.
01:14:43 Daddy, do we go on now?
01:14:47 Can we go right on?
01:14:48 Yeah.
01:14:49 But first you gotta say goodbye.
01:14:51 Goodbye, Daddy.
01:14:52 Goodbye, Daddy.
01:14:54 I want you to be good to your hearing, and have fun,
01:14:57 and always remember to mind Nettie.
01:14:59 She's your ma and do what she says.
01:15:01 We'll miss the train.
01:15:02 Up you go.
01:15:04 [grunts]
01:15:05 [grunts]
01:15:06 Up.
01:15:13 [grunts]
01:15:14 Goodbye.
01:15:19 [dog barks]

01:19:23 - Wait for me in the car.
01:19:25 Better give me that.
01:19:36 Why didn't you come in today like I told you?
01:19:46 - I had things to do.
01:19:48 - Sent your family to the country.
01:19:50 - Oh.
01:19:52 So that was one of your guys at the station.
01:19:54 - Well, when you didn't show up,
01:19:55 I started worrying about you.
01:19:57 - I'll do my own worrying.
01:19:59 - Nick, our man lost Udo about an hour ago.
01:20:03 I came as soon as I heard.
01:20:05 Sorry, but I've got to take you in.
01:20:08 - Take me in?
01:20:09 For what?
01:20:10 - For protection.
01:20:11 - I'll protect myself.
01:20:12 It's him or me now.
01:20:13 - Nick, I can't connive with murder, yours or his.
01:20:17 Look, if it's me that gets him,
01:20:19 it won't be murder, it'll be self-defense.
01:20:21 - You're wrong.
01:20:22 We haven't got a thing on Udo now.
01:20:24 He's acquitted.
01:20:25 If you kill him, murder is what any jury will call it.
01:20:28 Use your head, Nick, and you'll be safe.
01:20:30 - Yeah, but my wife and kids won't be safe.
01:20:33 - What makes you think you'd go after them?
01:20:35 - Rizzo's mother.
01:20:37 - Oh.
01:20:38 Well, we'll take care of your family too.
01:20:41 - You mean you'll lock us up for the rest of our lives?
01:20:43 - No.
01:20:44 Only until Udo makes his next mistake.
01:20:46 - 'Til he knocks somebody else off.
01:20:48 - 'Til he does anything.
01:20:49 - Nick, he's a three-time loser now.
01:20:51 All we've got to do is catch him with a gun on him,
01:20:53 and we can send him up for life.
01:20:55 - And suppose he don't make a mistake?
01:20:57 He didn't the last time.
01:20:59 You made the mistake.
01:21:00 You had a perfect case, and he beat you on it.
01:21:03 You couldn't even keep a tail on him.
01:21:04 He's nuts, and he's smarter than you are.
01:21:07 - Well, sooner or later, he'll trip himself up.
01:21:09 They all do.
01:21:10 You've got to trust me, Nick.
01:21:11 - I'm through trusting you, the police, or anybody but me.
01:21:15 There's only one way to get Udo.
01:21:17 And that's my way.
01:21:19 - Even if you were right, I couldn't take the responsibility.
01:21:21 I'm sorry, Nick.
01:21:22 You're under arrest.
01:21:24 - On what charge?
01:21:26 - You've got to have a charge.
01:21:28 - Violation of parole is enough.
01:21:33 - Well, I...
01:21:37 guess that's that.
01:21:39 - That's better.
01:21:42 It won't appear on your record.
01:21:44 - You came to us for protection.

01:22:45 - No.
01:22:46 - Thanks.
01:22:47 See you again.

01:23:29 - That's okay, I'll come in and wait for him.

01:24:27 (phone rings)
01:24:37 - Hello.
01:24:40 - Mr. D'Angelo.
01:24:41 - Nick, where are you? We got a general alarm out for you.
01:24:44 - Never mind that.
01:24:46 I found Tommy Udo.
01:24:47 - Yeah? Where is he?
01:24:49 - I told you, we're gonna play this my way.
01:24:51 - Now you listen to me. Udo's my job. You keep out of this.
01:24:54 - Take it easy, Mr. D'Angelo. The only reason I'm calling you is that I may need some help.
01:24:58 Now get this. I want you to come to the 37th Precinct Police Station.
01:25:02 Bring some men with you from Homicide.
01:25:04 If my plan doesn't work, I'll be calling you there.
01:25:08 How long will it take you to get uptown?
01:25:09 - About 20 minutes, but Nick...
01:25:11 - I'll give you a half hour.
01:25:12 When you get to the police station, sit tight and wait for my call.
01:25:15 (door closes)
01:25:17 - 37th Precinct.
01:25:20 (door closes)
01:25:22 - Hello.
01:25:49 - Hello. You are too late to eat, mister.
01:25:52 We close at 12.
01:25:54 - I'm looking for Tommy Udo.
01:25:59 - He's not here.
01:26:01 - Tell him Nick Bianco wants to see him.
01:26:07 - You wait. I'll see if anyone knows where he is.

01:28:13 (laughs)
01:28:15 They tell me you've been looking for me.
01:28:17 - I had to talk to you, Tommy.
01:28:18 - Go ahead, talk. I'm listening.
01:28:20 - I'd like to talk to you.
01:28:22 Not these characters.

01:28:58 - There's nothing to square.
01:29:00 You're my pal.
01:29:02 You're smart, too.
01:29:04 (laughs)
01:29:05 I didn't know how smart 'til I saw you in court.
01:29:08 You fooled me.
01:29:10 And that takes a big man.
01:29:13 - Yeah, big man.
01:29:15 - Okay, play it straight, Tommy.
01:29:17 I squealed on you.
01:29:19 You got a right to be sore.
01:29:22 What are you gonna do about it?
01:29:26 - I ain't gonna do nothing.
01:29:28 You did nothing to me.
01:29:29 They quitted me, didn't they?
01:29:31 (laughs)
01:29:32 We're going right on being pals, you and me.
01:29:35 We're gonna have some fun together.
01:29:38 Lots of fun, just like we used to.
01:29:42 (laughs)
01:29:44 You got a wife and kids, ain't you, pal?
01:29:52 - Yeah.
01:29:56 - They're gonna have some fun, too.
01:29:59 I'm gonna enjoy meeting your family.
01:30:02 - Lay off of 'em, Tommy.
01:30:05 - Why, huh?
01:30:06 Kids like to have fun.
01:30:08 We'll all have some fun together.
01:30:11 You and me and your wife and your kids.
01:30:16 From now on, lots of fun.
01:30:20 - I'm telling you, lay off of 'em.
01:30:22 - Is that all you got to say to me?
01:30:26 - Okay.
01:30:27 I thought you'd listen to reason.
01:30:31 But if it's trouble you're looking for,
01:30:34 you're gonna get it.
01:30:35 Leave me and my family alone.
01:30:39 Or maybe I ain't through singing.
01:30:41 (laughs)
01:30:44 - Whatever, pal, I'm clean.
01:30:46 They can't try me twice on the same rep.
01:30:48 - No.
01:30:49 Not on the Larry Young job.
01:30:51 Maybe I know some other tunes.
01:30:55 When we were together, you told me a lot of things.
01:31:00 You got your eyes full of smoke and you talk plenty,
01:31:04 just like the squirt that you are.
01:31:07 You talk your fool head off and I ain't forgetting any of it.
01:31:10 You gave me enough to burn you a hundred times over
01:31:15 if I can get the other witnesses to back me up.
01:31:17 And you even gave me a pretty good idea
01:31:20 where to look for those other witnesses.
01:31:22 You ain't carrying anything in your pocket, Tommy.
01:31:25 You're dumb, but you're not that dumb.
01:31:27 You'd get life if they found a gun on you.
01:31:36 Now remember this.
01:31:37 Touch my family and you'll hear singing
01:31:42 like you never heard before.
01:31:44 Go on, beat it.
01:31:48 Peddle your papers.

01:32:14 Yes, Mr. Yudo.
01:32:15 - This is my pal, Mr. Bianco.
01:32:17 He's a big man, biggest man in town.
01:32:19 I want to show him what I think of him.
01:32:21 I want you to give him your deluxe short dinner.
01:32:23 - But, Mr. Yudo, the kitchen is closed.
01:32:25 (slap)
01:32:26 - Then open it, you squirt.
01:32:28 - Yes, sir.
01:32:29 Yes, Mr. Yudo.
01:32:31 - Nothing's too good for my pal.
01:32:33 Deluxe short dinner and a bottle of that good wine, got it?
01:32:37 - Yes, sir.
01:32:38 Yes, Mr. Yudo, right away.
01:32:40 - Enjoy yourself, big man.
01:32:46 Enjoy your dinner.

01:34:37 Hello, Nick. I...
01:34:39 Trace this call, will you?
01:34:41 Listen.
01:34:43 I just talked with Tommy Udo.
01:34:45 I tried to scare him off, but it didn't work.
01:34:50 There's only one thing for me to do now.
01:34:52 I'm gonna hand him to you on a silver platter.
01:34:55 I'm gonna give him to you the way you want him.
01:34:58 With a gun in his hand.
01:35:00 Nick, for the love of heaven, where are you? We'll come and get you.
01:35:03 I'm setting him up for you, Mr. DeAngelo.
01:35:05 He's laying for me outside this place in a black sedan.
01:35:08 I've needled him to the point where he's gotta get me.
01:35:11 It'll take you two minutes to get here.
01:35:14 In exactly two minutes, I'm going through that door.
01:35:17 Nick, wait a minute.
01:35:19 He'll shoot to kill.
01:35:20 Maybe he does, maybe he doesn't.
01:35:23 Come in from both ends of the street.
01:35:26 Don't come with your sirens or you'll throw his gun away.
01:35:29 Now get it.
01:35:31 The name of the place is Luigi's on 125th Street.
01:35:34 Just around the corner from where you are.
01:35:36 You know a place called Luigi's?
01:35:38 Yes, sir, I know it. Luigi's, okay.
01:35:40 Now come on.
01:35:42 You've got exactly two minutes.
01:35:44 Don't miss.

01:36:22 Now keep this as a souvenir.
01:36:43 And in case anybody asks you,
01:36:46 remember I gave it to you.
01:36:47 (door opens)
01:37:14 What's the matter, big man? You turned yellow?
01:37:16 You used to do your own shooting.
01:37:18 Give me that gun.

01:38:26 Sometimes out of the worst comes the best.
01:38:34 Mr. D'Angelo got what he wanted.
01:38:37 Nick got what he wanted.
