TVTranscript
00:00I almost caught the guy.
00:30Yeah?
00:31Just got back from chasing.
00:33Witness saw him acting suspicious and called it in.
00:36Guy took off as soon as we got here.
00:38Jumped on the FDR drive and we lost.
00:40We didn't even know there was a DOA here until we got back.
00:43We got the license number.
00:44You gotta look at the perp?
00:45Yeah, white, mid-thirties, about six foot.
00:48Big Fu Manchu.
00:50Black hair like hanging down to the collar.
00:52Mr. Witness saw it through his window.
00:54Can you describe the guy who got away with the car?
00:56Uh, yeah, white guy.
00:5835, 36 with a big drooping mustache.
01:01Fu Manchu.
01:02Like that, I guess, sure.
01:04And he had kind of long hair, dark hair.
01:06I live upstairs and I was looking out the window
01:08when I saw him dump the other guy out of the car.
01:10Hey, Shannon, you know you should run the plates.
01:12Oh.
01:13You got it?
01:15You been drinking this morning?
01:17It's my life.
01:18Do you mind?
01:19I work nights.
01:20I play bass.
01:21I was drinking to try to get to sleep.
01:23Hey, give me your name.
01:24Ken Thornton.
01:26Musician, huh?
01:28Yeah.
01:29I play with jaundice.
01:30You play with jaundice?
01:32You wouldn't have heard of it.
01:34So what do you do for a living?
01:36I'm a bike messenger in the afternoon.
01:38Yeah.
01:39Come on, beer, will you?
01:40Bike messenger, huh?
01:41You guys think Manhattan's a racetrack.
01:42I don't want any trouble, man, all right?
01:43I got enough trouble to my own.
01:44How come I don't have a problem believing that?
01:45Come on.
01:46Here.
01:47Here.
01:48Here.
01:49You ever seen this guy before?
01:50No.
01:51No.
01:52Never seen him.
01:53Pretty old.
01:54He's shot in the head.
01:55Dominic Landucci, 1924.
01:56Was that 72 years old?
01:57Before?
01:58Yeah.
01:59No.
02:00No.
02:01He's shot in the head.
02:02Dominic Landucci, 1924.
02:03Was that 72 years old?
02:04No.
02:05No.
02:06No.
02:07No.
02:08No.
02:09No.
02:10No.
02:11No.
02:12No.
02:13No.
02:14No.
02:15No.
02:16For $43.
02:17Landucci, there's some OC people named Landucci.
02:20You think you might be one of them?
02:21I don't know.
02:22He's got a slug in the brain.
02:23Could've been a mob head.
02:24Whoa, a mob head?
02:25Oh, no way, man.
02:26No way, man.
02:27I don't want nothing to do with this.
02:28Hey, oh, just relax.
02:29Why the hell would I go and report it?
02:30He's got no keys on it, man.
02:32I ran the plate.
02:34It's called up her footage registered to Dominic Landucci.
02:37That's this guy.
02:38Is this guy's code?
02:40Probably a car-jacket, huh?
02:42Hey, I'm not testifying.
02:43Hey, stop worrying about it, huh?
02:44about it. Nice. Let's go get some sleep. Yeah, that ought to be easy. Well, do your best.
04:22Morning. Morning.
04:24Diane, can we talk a minute? Sure, Donna.
04:32A friend of mine's asking for advice in a situation I'm not equipped to deal with.
04:42Should he or she be talking to a detective? Absolutely. Her name is Marina Bermudez. She's my hairdresser.
04:50Uh-huh. And Marina was involved with this guy, Ronnie, who's been away in prison for four and a half years, and he just got out. And he's been coming around seeing her. His name is Pinero, in case you want to run him through BCI.
05:04Ronnie Pinero? What was he in prison for? Manslaughter, I believe.
05:10Okay.
05:12So, Marina's got this present boyfriend, Luis, who's a truck driver. And sometimes Luis parks a loaded truck at Marina's place.
05:20So, Ronnie, the ex-con, heard about that from a cousin of Marina's who's jealous of her because she's always had a crush on Ronnie.
05:30This cousin told Ronnie about Luis, and now Ronnie wants to hijack Luis's truck when it's parked at Marina's place. He wants her to notify him when Luis is there.
05:42Ronnie wants Marina to call him when Luis is there with his truck.
05:48Exactly. So, Marina's deathly afraid that if she doesn't notify Ronnie that the blabbermouth cousin down the street's liable to see Luis's truck and tell Ronnie about it afterwards.
06:00And then Ronnie might blow his stack and, you know, really hurt her or something.
06:05Is Ronnie on parole or did he serve his full sentence?
06:08I don't know.
06:11Uh, well, Donna, see, he hasn't really committed a crime yet. He might be violating his parole.
06:17I... I can find out his status through BCI.
06:22Have your friend Marina come in and talk to me.
06:24I would be so grateful because I feel beyond my depth.
06:28No, you ran the story pretty good.
06:31I'll give her a call.
06:32All right.
06:40If you get a bigger nose.
06:42Did you change the mustache? I thought you had the mustache too small.
06:45Rainy, you had your say.
06:47Shannon, don't need your kibitz in here.
06:49It was a big Fu Manchu.
06:52Bobby. Andy.
06:54Andy.
07:06This is Mike Francis, FBI.
07:09Bobby Simone, Andy Sibwitz.
07:10Bobby. Andy.
07:12I'm hoping we can scratch each other's backs in the Dominic Landucci murder.
07:17That right.
07:19We're running a surveillance in the Palermo Social Club.
07:22It's on Mulberry.
07:23You know what? It's a mob hangout.
07:25Uh, there's rumor to that effect.
07:28We videotape everyone coming in and out of that club during business hours.
07:32Well, this morning some of the wise guys showing up were acting kind of different than usual.
07:38A lot of laughing, giving each other the high fives.
07:41We heard about the Landucci hit, we put it together.
07:44Landucci went to the Palermo Club every day of the week.
07:48Case closed.
07:49We ran this Landucci through BCI.
07:52He's got a couple of low rank collars for Shylock.
07:55You think he's big enough to rate a hit in all these high fives?
07:59I know how to find out.
08:00Agent Francis feels our job could get a court order to plan a listening device.
08:06You got cause to believe a contract on Landucci might have been run out of that club.
08:11We provide the equipment, run the bug into your squad, share the information.
08:17Inspector Aiello thinks it's a good idea.
08:20There's a disconnected phone socket in the card room we can use to put the place up.
08:25You get your court order today, we can get you in tonight.
08:28You're gonna get us in?
08:30Our bug, my plant, your tap.
08:34Set him up in any crime.
08:38Got my equipment outside.
08:42He's got his equipment outside.
08:47Come on, let's go, Francis.
08:59Hey, Bob.
09:00I can't get the son of a bitch in.
09:02Are you talking to me, huh?
09:03Because I'm Andy, and that's Bob.
09:06Hmm?
09:07What was that?
09:08Did you hear something?
09:09No, I didn't hear it.
09:11Move over, huh?
09:12Let me put this damn thing in here.
09:14You just need some more light.
09:15Come on, move.
09:16Move.
09:17I'm gonna take a leak.
09:18Need any help with that, too?
09:20Don't laugh.
09:21You ever have prostatitis?
09:22Go ahead, Francis.
09:24Do what you gotta do.
09:25Feels like you gotta piss all the time.
09:27You stand there, you get no flow.
09:29Look, I had prostate trouble once.
09:31I don't got it no more.
09:32But if you don't get the hell out of here,
09:34I'm gonna piss on your shoes.
09:36I'll beat it.
09:38He's gonna tell me, huh?
09:41I'm gonna prostrate.
09:42I'm gonna prostrate a bull.
09:45Yeah, at least he's an expert, huh?
09:47Yeah, he don't know.
09:48I'm the king of prostrate.
09:51Okay.
09:52Got it.
09:54What?
09:55It hurts, Sam.
09:56No, no, no.
09:57You start with it.
09:58I'm gonna be serious, dude.
09:59Turn it to me, man.
10:03Keep quiet.
10:04I don't want panning the ass Giordano
10:06coming down from the upstairs apartment.
10:08Giordano's passed out.
10:10Don't worry.
10:11I don't want that drunken Giordano
10:12figuring out that I got the missing cake.
10:16Just keep your voice down,
10:19with your money where your mouth is,
10:22and watch me run the table.
10:24Yeah, right.
10:25No, you're so full of crap.
10:27I didn't think I was both hands tied behind my back.
10:30You racked up the cue, boy, you big asshole.
10:34I loved you, you crazy bastard.
10:36You know why?
10:37No, no.
10:38Because you don't know your ass
10:39from a hole in the ground.
10:40You're gonna show me pool shooting?
10:45What the hell is that?
10:46Somebody's in the toilet.
10:47Somebody's in here?
10:48Yeah.
10:49These guys find out we're cops.
10:50They're gonna level this place looking for the bug.
10:56Who the hell are you?
10:57Oh, my God.
10:58All right, get him up, you sons of bitches.
11:00This is a stick-up.
11:01Yeah, yeah.
11:02Put those pool cues down.
11:03Come on, come on.
11:04Come on.
11:05Put those cues on the table.
11:06Get your hands on the table.
11:07Come on.
11:08All right.
11:09And take off those watch.
11:10Hurry up.
11:11Give me that watch.
11:13Give me that watch.
11:14Get on the floor.
11:15Come on, asshole.
11:16Get down the floor.
11:17Get down the floor.
11:18And get his wallet.
11:21Shut up!
11:22Hey, you wanna shoot him?
11:23Brian, shoot him.
11:24You wanna shoot him?
11:25Yeah, yeah.
11:26I think I'm gonna shoot him.
11:27No, no, no.
11:28Don't shoot me, man.
11:29Don't shoot me, please.
11:30Oh, God.
11:31Come on.
11:32Brian!
11:33What the hell are you doing?
11:34What the hell are you doing?
11:35We're robbing the place.
11:36That's what we came here for.
11:37You can't do this.
11:38You shut up and find something.
11:40I'll tie them up with it.
11:41God, this is horrible.
11:42Move!
11:43These guys are insane.
11:46Why didn't somebody warn me?
11:48Put your bitch in and just find us something.
11:50It's the last time you go out of job with us.
11:53Damn right!
11:58Here.
11:59Here's some tape.
12:01Come on.
12:02Hands behind your back.
12:03Here, keep a gun on them.
12:04What?
12:05Put the gun on them.
12:08Don't move!
12:12Hands behind you.
12:13Come on.
12:14Where are you taking that?
12:17Out to the car.
12:24Oh, God.
12:27You see you got over your flow problems there.
12:31Hey!
12:32Get the other TV!
12:33Why?
12:34Come on.
12:35Put your feet together.
12:36Come on!
12:37Put your feet together.
12:42Put your feet together.
12:43Come on.
12:44You get the stuff, aren't you?
12:45Yeah.
12:46So, any time now, huh?
12:53Complete confidence.
12:54That's the key.
12:55Sure.
12:56Circumstances, it was only appropriate move.
12:57Yeah.
12:58Good morning.
12:59Morning.
13:00Hey.
13:01How'd it go last night?
13:02How'd it go last night?
13:03Oh, we got the bugging.
13:04Good.
13:05A couple of hiccups, but nothing we couldn't take care of.
13:07A couple of hiccups?
13:08Yeah.
13:09A couple of hiccups?
13:10Yeah.
13:11A couple of hiccups?
13:12A couple of hiccups.
13:13Yeah.
13:14Yeah.
13:15Let's hear about it.
13:16Good morning.
13:17Good morning.
13:18Hey.
13:19How'd it go last night?
13:20Oh, we got the bugging.
13:21Good.
13:24A couple of hiccups, but nothing we couldn't take care of.
13:30A couple of hiccups?
13:31Yeah.
13:32A couple of hiccups, yeah.
13:33Let's hear about it.
13:46So, describe the hiccups.
13:48A couple of the wise guys walked in on us.
13:51And?
13:52We jumped them.
13:53It was the only appropriate thing.
13:55Absolutely no choice, boss.
13:57If we would have identified ourselves, they would have known the place was up.
14:01We had to protect the apparition.
14:03What do you mean by jumping them?
14:04We jumped them like we were burglars.
14:07And then you ran out?
14:08Good.
14:09Here comes Dopey.
14:18I want you to know I was in the toilet when they pulled that holdup.
14:21What holdup?
14:22I just told you we jumped them.
14:24You jumped them and you took something?
14:26Something.
14:27They cleaned the place out.
14:28We had to make it look real.
14:30So what did you take?
14:31Their wallets and watches.
14:33And two TV sets.
14:35You stole the TV.
14:36Well, well, all that stuff is vouched, boss, downstairs in the property room.
14:41Well, we have to work our way to return that stuff.
14:45Can we add saving my job to that wishlist?
14:48Just tell your boss you were in the potty.
14:51Do you know how many of those goombas civil rights got violated last night?
14:55When we walked out of that social club, those men had been robbed, threatened with death at gunpoint, and left hogtied on the floor.
15:04Well, right now that sounds like spilled milk.
15:07No, no.
15:08The milk is just beginning to spill.
15:10The conversations that bug picks up are going to get me fired.
15:15What we did last night is going to be all anybody at Palermo is talking about today or in the foreseeable future.
15:21You got a plan or you just want to stand there crying?
15:28I've told my boss you don't want bureau people trampling around your squad.
15:34When I'm not on the monitor, you've insisted on your people relieving me.
15:39I got no problem with that.
15:41Good.
15:42Because everyone in this room should understand.
15:44If I go, it won't be alone.
15:47But what are you going to tell your bosses when they ask you about the transcripts?
15:52Tapes get lost.
15:54Portions get erased.
15:55Accidents happen.
15:56Hey, look at last night.
15:59Don't ever mention last night to me again.
16:03Yeah, Donna.
16:04The two of you should be in a zoo.
16:06Yeah, you ought to be a groundskeeper at a miniature golf course.
16:10Miniature golf?
16:11What does that mean?
16:12Just keep your hands on your po-po and try to make a wee-wee.
16:18Detective Culbertson called from the first.
16:21Says they've got a suspect in a bar holdout fits the sketch you guys circulated on the Landucci perp.
16:27Mr. Fu Manchu.
16:28Oh, my God.
16:29What's the matter?
16:33Those are the guys we took off.
16:35Still, I would have wanted to talk to you.
16:44Hey, Donna, don't ask me to explain.
16:46But for the next 20 seconds or so, don't let those guys take their eyes off you.
16:52Get out of here.
16:53All right, come on.
16:54Hey, we were held up and robbed.
16:59Yeah, taped up all night laying on the floor.
17:02Lost a lot of money and possessions.
17:04Uh-huh.
17:05Uh, Detective Medavoy, uh, these men have a robbery to report?
17:10Huh.
17:11Yeah.
17:13Yeah.
17:14We're reporting an armed robbery.
17:15Yeah, robbed at gunpoint.
17:17Taped up all night long.
17:19Uh-huh.
17:22Oh, God.
17:23Hey.
17:28Your back's turned.
17:29It's okay.
17:30Uh, we're gonna go to first precinct.
17:32You wanna go listen to your bug?
17:34This is a nightmare.
17:38Francis, can you make it up the stairs okay?
17:43Go ahead, Francis, while our backs are still turning.
17:46We're gonna go grab our coats.
17:47Come on.
17:49Let's go.
17:53What a dick.
17:55Diane?
17:57Uh, this is Detective Russell.
18:01Mark Margioti.
18:02It's a pleasure.
18:03How do you do?
18:04A detective?
18:05Well, I gotta say you're the best-looking detective I've ever run into.
18:09Uh, no offense to you, but a fact is a fact, am I right?
18:12You are right.
18:13Where did this robbery take place?
18:16We're in a private club.
18:17Just me and Vince shooting a quiet game of pool.
18:21And these cycles bust in screaming.
18:23Stick a sold-off shotgun to my head.
18:25You're not too out of their minds on PCP or something.
18:29What's the name of this club?
18:30The Palermo Social Club.
18:33These men, how many were there?
18:36Four.
18:38So which was it?
18:40Oh, she's sharp, you know?
18:44Four.
18:45Counting the guy outside.
18:47So what do we got?
18:49Robbery at the Palermo Social Club.
18:51No, no, a stick-up.
18:52They ripped off four TVs plus all our money and our watches.
18:56Gold watches.
18:58Club have insurance?
18:59Fortunately, yes.
19:01So you know anything about this murder yesterday?
19:04What murder?
19:05I didn't hear nothing.
19:06Dominic Landucci.
19:08He belonged to the Palermo Club.
19:10You mean old man Dominic.
19:12Yeah, I heard about that.
19:13Somebody whacked him.
19:15Yeah, you got any idea how that happened?
19:18Not a clue.
19:19Couldn't even guess.
19:22So, um, how big was Landucci?
19:25Big enough to be in somebody's way?
19:27No one that I know about.
19:29Do you have any enemies?
19:31Everybody liked him.
19:32He's just an old mustache Pete sat around all day reading the paper.
19:37Yeah.
19:38Okay.
19:39I'll let you get on with the interview.
19:43All right, cash stolen.
19:45How much money did you have in your wallet?
19:47Two grand.
19:48Really?
19:49You carry that much cash?
19:51Absolutely.
19:53How about you?
19:54Several thousand also.
19:56You too?
19:58Oh, yes.
19:59We robbed the bar about two this morning.
20:00We grabbed him half a block away.
20:01You recovered a gun?
20:02I had it on him.
20:0338.
20:04What did your DOA get whacked with him?
20:05Say we helped him.
20:06Okay, this is Parnell Manning.
20:07He's got four arrests, three of them for robbery, and there's probably a hundred other stick-ups we don't know about. Right, Parnell?
20:10That's supposed to be a joke.
20:11Some detectives to see you.
20:12We're from the 15th squad, Parnell. How you doing? Listen, I want to know where you were yesterday around 9 o'clock in the morning.
20:21And bed sleeping.
20:23Where you live, anybody there with you can vouch for that.
20:25I don't know.
20:26I don't know.
20:27I don't know.
20:28I don't know.
20:29I don't know.
20:30I don't know.
20:31I don't know.
20:32I don't know.
20:33I don't know.
20:34I don't know.
20:35I don't know.
20:36I don't know.
20:37I don't know.
20:38I'm sleeping.
20:39Where you live, anybody there with you can vouch for that?
20:40I live at the Eagle Hotel, First Avenue.
20:43Desk clerk saw me go out.
20:45He knows me.
20:46I've been there about six months.
20:47How you pay for the rent?
20:49I work.
20:50At what?
20:51Odd jobs.
20:52I'll bet they're odd.
20:53Talk to the desk clerk, okay?
20:55And back up what I'm saying.
20:57You know anybody associated with the Palermo Social Club?
21:00Never heard of it.
21:01You know Dominic Landucci?
21:03Oh, let me guess.
21:05Well, he got his 7-Eleven knocked over in piss Aunt Georgia.
21:09So naturally, I did it, right?
21:11Landucci got murdered yesterday by a guy that fits your description to a T.
21:15White guy mustache?
21:17Some cop goes, you know, we got him right here in a cell.
21:21Sit up straight.
21:26I'm gonna show this to the clerk at your hotel.
21:29I just hope that creep can remember.
21:31Cause I didn't kill nobody and that's the truth.
21:34Well, you know, we'd like to believe you, Parnell, but you really don't have the kind of background that inspires trust.
21:40Officer, we're done here.
21:43Hey.
21:45I know I'm gonna do time when the bars stick up, but believe me, I'm not your guy in the killing.
21:50And if you were, you'd tell us.
21:52Hey, your boy's here.
22:10Yeah, we were gonna grab a sandwich.
22:12I'll be right with you, son.
22:13Oh, take your time, Pop.
22:15How did it go with those guys from the social club?
22:17How many TVs did you take?
22:19Two?
22:20Yeah, they're claiming four.
22:21Sure, the stuff's insured.
22:23So I had to work out with that stick-up guy at the first.
22:26It fits the description, Lou, but his alibi's good.
22:29The hotel clerk says that this guy was up in his room at the time that Landucci's body was getting dumped.
22:34Yeah, and they found Landucci's car abandoned uptown.
22:38I'll look at it.
22:39Let's go.
22:40Go have lunch.
22:41All right, thanks.
22:43I'm Jay.
22:44Hey.
22:45Have a good lunch.
22:46I'll see you.
22:47Okay, come on, let's go.
22:48Yeah.
22:49What's going on?
22:50Working on homicide.
22:51Plus, some wise guys are pumping up an insurance claim.
22:54These assholes can't even be honest about getting robbed.
23:05Here I am.
23:06Hi, Marina.
23:07I'm nervous.
23:08I know, but you're doing the right thing.
23:10Come on, we'll talk to Detective Russell.
23:14Yeah, good.
23:15Let's see you later.
23:18Detective Russell, this is Marina Bermudez, my friend from the hairdressers.
23:23Hi, Marina.
23:24I'm glad you came in.
23:26Donna says she told her about my situation.
23:28Yeah, your ex-boyfriend wants to hijack your present boyfriend's truck.
23:33Yeah, it's on my mind a lot.
23:35It's really worrying me.
23:37Ronnie said Luis wouldn't get hurt, but you just never know.
23:40Have you warned Luis?
23:42I'm afraid you'll cross, Ronnie.
23:44That man can hurt you.
23:45Did Ronnie tell you what his plan is?
23:47It'd be him and this other guy he runs with grab Luis's truck outside my place.
23:53They'd grab his keys when he comes out from seeing me.
23:56Luis always stops on his way out of town.
24:00It gets kind of lonesome on the road.
24:03He's one of these guys, you know, needs a woman.
24:06He's going out later on today.
24:08He's got a load of shrimp and lobster for Chicago.
24:12I didn't tell Ronnie.
24:14But I'm afraid my creep cousin Lori will be watching my place and she'll tell him and then he's going to beat the crap out of me for not letting him know.
24:23Well, I think we can help you with this, Marina, but you need to cooperate a little.
24:27I looked Ronnie up and he did his full bit in prison so we can't get him on a parole violation.
24:33That means we need an overt act to arrest him.
24:36What's an overt act?
24:38Does Ronnie know what Luis looks like?
24:41Not really.
24:42I think he saw him once at a christening.
24:45Do you have a picture of Luis?
24:54Wait here while I talk to my boss.
24:55What's going on?
25:00I think they're going to run in a ring here for Luis.
25:02If it's James Martinez, he's really cute.
25:15I'll tell you, hack and sack or no hack and sack, Andy, you park that piece of junk on the street, the Department of Sanitation is going to throw it away.
25:23The engine on the Caddy Blue.
25:26Excuse me.
25:27Never let Mr. Buccia hear you say that, Andy.
25:30It'll break his heart.
25:31I had 700 bucks.
25:32This is all I could get.
25:33Mm-hmm.
25:34As soon as you get a couple of paychecks in the bank, you're going to do better for yourself.
25:39Got me cross-country.
25:42Yeah, man.
25:51Okay.
25:53You're eating your sandwich, you got company, the weather's fine, it's the perfect time to tune out the job.
26:05Yeah.
26:06But you don't want to tune it out.
26:09Because there's too much you've got to learn.
26:15Here's the story about being a uniformed cop.
26:18Years ago, it's midnight, me and my partner are a couple of blocks from the precinct house.
26:27When I see two big Cadillacs turn into an alley, two Cadillacs, I'm thinking maybe they're mob guys.
26:33So we get out, we go in the alley, see what's going on.
26:38Well, the Cadillacs are gone, but I keep on walking and pretty soon, I see two guys come out of a back door.
26:46One of them's got a machine gun.
26:49So I yelled to my partner, hey, got a guy back here with a machine gun.
26:55I didn't know he could move so fast.
26:58He runs behind the telephone pole and I'm standing in the doorway with my gun pointing at the guy with the machine gun.
27:07What's going on with that?
27:12The building was a toy factory that made toy machine guns and one of the guys was taking one home to his kid.
27:21I don't think you knew how close I'd come to shooting them.
27:24But you didn't.
27:26I could have.
27:28And it would have been off not being prepared.
27:31This was my beat and I should have known about the toy factory and what kind of toys they made.
27:37And knowing that, I should have figured, you know, it's midnight, the graveyard shift's just getting off.
27:44I didn't put it all together.
27:47So I came this close to shooting that man.
27:54People, places, the things they do, the times they do them.
27:59Say that.
28:01People, places, the things they do, the times they do them.
28:06A beat cop knows those four things.
28:09He's ready to do his job.
28:16We'll be okay.
28:19We'll be okay.
28:35Yeah, that's 555-0172.
28:38I will hold.
28:40Anything in a DOA's car?
28:43Landucci, he definitely got whacked in it.
28:45It's full of blood.
28:46The crime scene is still processing.
28:48Who you got?
28:49I'm running a check on a phone number that was found written on a newspaper in the front seat of Landucci's car.
28:54Shannon and this other cop both picked this Parnell on photo erase, but I'm not buying it.
28:59Guy's alibied up, plus he's a crook.
29:02DOA's money's still in his wallet.
29:03Yeah.
29:05Uh-huh.
29:06You got it?
29:08Good.
29:12Herman with an H?
29:14Yeah.
29:15All right.
29:16Thanks, man.
29:18That number on Landucci's newspaper is for a guy named Greg Herman.
29:22He lives over on Mont Street.
29:25Pick him up?
29:26Yeah.
29:27Hey, Lou.
29:28Uh, we might have something on the homicide.
29:31Uh-huh.
29:32You gonna need us on this shrimp truck thing?
29:34No, we good.
29:35You don't trust us.
29:36And no more street operations, huh?
29:48Hey, how's it going there, Francis?
29:50Need stronger coffee.
29:52What are you getting out of the bug, huh?
29:54Between comparing the size of their Johnsons?
29:57Some more stuff about our little adventure, how they gonna keep lying about their losses.
30:01Yeah, well, that's why they call them crooks.
30:03Plus, they're talking about how Angelo Ruffini got pulled out of the river this morning over in Hoboken with two in the head.
30:11You guys are probably right.
30:13All those high fives outside the club yesterday, probably about Ruffini.
30:17And so are Shylock Landu.
30:18She's not the Godfather.
30:20Doesn't look like it, no.
30:22Uh, you got any leads?
30:25We're working on a few things.
30:27You know, Francis, you look like you could use some relief there.
30:31Yeah.
30:32Nobody goes in that listening room but me.
30:33All right, yeah.
30:34But, uh, maybe you could listen lying down.
30:36I don't wanna win the battle and lose the war.
30:39So I parked my truck, I come to your door.
30:56Would you come downstairs personally when I ring or buzz me up?
30:59I'd buzz you up.
31:00So you buzzed me up.
31:01Yeah, and I've already called Ronnie.
31:04Right.
31:05You let him know that I'm coming, and now I'm in there with you for like a half an hour.
31:11And if Ronnie calls back, I confirm you're there.
31:14And that's your part.
31:15And I leave the apartment, I go outside, and everyone does their job.
31:19You tried out the truck.
31:20Yeah, I took it around the block, it's no problem.
31:23You up for this?
31:25These police officers are gonna be waiting in the van?
31:29Yeah.
31:30That's right.
31:31Yeah.
31:32I guess I'm up for it.
31:35It'll go fine, Marina.
31:38Okay.
31:39Let's go.
31:44How long is he gonna stay in there with her?
31:59James is supposed to make her look good, Adrian.
32:03You're supposed to be getting one for the road.
32:04That's sick.
32:05What's sick?
32:06Your adolescent snickering.
32:07I wasn't snickering, I was stating a fact.
32:08Why did you throw off, Craig?
32:09I was not snickering.
32:10I wonder Donna couldn't take you anymore.
32:11Oh, Adrian, that's a low blow.

45:32so did you stick up the liquor store no that's when he started talking about having me whacked
45:39and i had this gun i started carrying around because i didn't know when it was gonna happen
45:46and then it was time for the vig again and he came over to my place to get me we went out in his car
45:53and we parked and he said he was washing his hands of me that my time was run out i didn't know if it was
45:59gonna happen then or what so i showed him the gun it didn't even scare him and he didn't think i was
46:08gonna do it but you did yeah
