1. When you love someone,
you`ve gotta trust them.Copy !req
2. There`s no other way.Copy !req
3. You`ve got to give them the key
to everything that`s yours.Copy !req
4. Otherwise, what`s the point?Copy !req
5. And, for a while, I believed
that`s the kind of love I had.Copy !req
6. ÷÷Copy !req
7. Before I ever ran a casino,
or got myself blown up...Copy !req
8. Ace Rothstein was a hell
of a handicapper, I can tell you that.Copy !req
9. I was so good that whenever I bet,
I could change the odds...Copy !req
10. for every bookmaker
in the country.Copy !req
11. I`m serious,
I had it down so cold...Copy !req
12. that I was given
paradise on earth.Copy !req
13. I was given one of the biggest casinos
in Las Vegas to run, the Tangiers...Copy !req
14. by the only kind of guys that can
actually get you that kind of money...Copy !req
15. $62,700,000.Copy !req
16. I don`t know all the details.Copy !req
17. Nobody knew all the details,
but it should`ve been perfect.Copy !req
18. I mean, he had me, Nicky Santoro,
his best friend, watching his ass...Copy !req
19. and he had, Ginger,
the woman he loved, on his arm.Copy !req
20. But in the end,
we fucked it all up.Copy !req
21. It should`ve been so sweet too.Copy !req
22. But it turned out to be the last time
that street guys like us...Copy !req
23. were ever given anything
that fuckin` valuable again.Copy !req
24. At that time, Vegas was a place
where millions of suckers...Copy !req
25. flew in every year
on their own nickel...Copy !req
26. and left behind
about a billion dollars.Copy !req
27. But at night, you couldn`t see
the desert that surrounds Las Vegas.Copy !req
28. But it`s in the desert where lots
of the town`s problems are solved.Copy !req
29. Got a lot of holes
in the desert...Copy !req
30. and a lot of problems
are buried in those holes.Copy !req
31. Except you gotta do it right.Copy !req
32. I mean, you gotta have
the hole already dug...Copy !req
33. before you show up
with a package in the trunk.Copy !req
34. Otherwise, you're talking about
a half hour or 45 minutes of diggin`.Copy !req
35. And who knows who`s gonna
be comin` along in that time?Copy !req
36. Before you know it,
you gotta dig a few more holes.Copy !req
37. You could be there
all fuckin` night.Copy !req
38. ÷÷Copy !req
39. ÷÷Copy !req
40. Who could resist?Copy !req
41. Anywhere else in the country
I was a bookie, a gambler...Copy !req
42. always lookin` over my shoulder,
hassled by cops, day and night.Copy !req
43. But here, I`m Mr. Rothstein.Copy !req
44. I`m not only legitimate,
but running a casino.Copy !req
45. And that`s like selling people
dreams for cash.Copy !req
46. I hired an old casino pal,
Billy Sherbert, as my manager,
and I went to work.Copy !req
47. the casino manager. And this is
Ronnie, who takes care of the card room.Copy !req
48. For guys like me,
Las Vegas washes away your sins.Copy !req
49. It`s like a morality car wash.Copy !req
50. It does for us what Lourdes
does for humpbacks and cripples.Copy !req
51. And along with making us legit...Copy !req
52. comes cash, tons of it.Copy !req
53. I mean, what do you think we`re doing
out here in the middle of the desert?Copy !req
54. It`s all this money.Copy !req
55. This is the end result
of all the bright lights...Copy !req
56. and the comp trips,
of all the champagne...Copy !req
57. and free hotel suites,
and all the broads and all the booze.Copy !req
58. It`s all been arranged
just for us to get your money.Copy !req
59. That`s the truth about Las Vegas.Copy !req
60. We`re the only winners.Copy !req
61. The players don`t stand a chance.Copy !req
62. And their cash flows
from the tables...Copy !req
63. to our boxes
through the cage...Copy !req
64. and into the most sacred room
in the casino.Copy !req
65. The place where they add up
all the money...Copy !req
66. the holy of holies,
the count room.Copy !req
67. - Now, this place was off-limits.
- Verify 3,000.Copy !req
68. Even I couldn`t get inside.Copy !req
69. But it was my job to keep it filled
with cash. That`s for sure.Copy !req
70. They had so much
fuckin` money in there...Copy !req
71. you could build a house out
of stacks of hundred-dollar bills.Copy !req
72. And the best part
was that upstairs...Copy !req
73. - the board of directors didn`t
know what the fuck was going on.
- Five thousand.Copy !req
74. I mean, to them everything
looked on the up-and-up.Copy !req
75. Right? Wrong.Copy !req
76. Verify 5,000.Copy !req
77. - The guys inside the counting room...
- Five thousand.Copy !req
78. were all slipped in there
to skim the joint dry.Copy !req
79. They`d do short counts,
they`d lose fill slips.Copy !req
80. They`d even take cash
right out of the drop boxes.Copy !req
81. And it was up to this guy
right here...Copy !req
82. standin` in front
of about two million dollars...Copy !req
83. to skim the cash off the top
without anybody gettin` wise...Copy !req
84. - the IRS or anybody.
- Verify 200.Copy !req
85. Now, notice how in the count room
nobody ever seems to see anything.Copy !req
86. Somehow, somebody`s always
lookin` the other way.Copy !req
87. Now, look at these guys.
They look busy, right?Copy !req
88. They`re countin` money.
Who wants to bother them?Copy !req
89. I mean, God forbid they should make
a mistake and forget to steal.Copy !req
90. Meanwhile,
you're in and you're out.Copy !req
91. Past the jag-off guard
who gets an extra C-note a week...Copy !req
92. just to watch the door.Copy !req
93. It`s routine. Business as usual:
in, out, hello, good-bye.Copy !req
94. And that`s all there is to it.Copy !req
95. Just another fat fuck walkin` out
of the casino with a suitcase.Copy !req
96. Now that suitcase was goin`
straight to one place:Copy !req
97. Right to Kansas City,
which was as close...Copy !req
98. to Las Vegas as the Midwest
bosses could go...Copy !req
99. without gettin` themselves arrested.Copy !req
100. That suitcase was all...Copy !req
101. the bosses ever wanted.Copy !req
102. - And they wanted it every month.
- Hey, John, how was your ride?Copy !req
103. Now this old Mormon fuck here...Copy !req
104. he had to fly in with suitcases
once a month, nice and easy.Copy !req
105. - Somethin` smells good.
- Yeah, they made us somethin` to eat.Copy !req
106. The bosses would come
from all over the place:Copy !req
107. Detroit, Cleveland, Milwaukee...Copy !req
108. all over the Midwest.Copy !req
109. And they would meet in the back
of this produce market in Kansas City.Copy !req
110. I mean, nobody even knew it.Copy !req
111. One of the guys made
his mother do all the cookin`.Copy !req
112. - Do you ever see that guy
Jerry Steriano?
- Jerry Steriano?Copy !req
113. Now, these old greaseballs
might not look it...Copy !req
114. but believe me...Copy !req
115. these are the guys
who secretly control Las Vegas.Copy !req
116. Mama, that man`s here again.Copy !req
117. Because they control
the Teamsters Union.Copy !req
118. And that`s where you had to go if you
wanted to borrow money to buy a casino.Copy !req
119. - Would you put in shrimp?
- I would.Copy !req
120. Here you are, gentlemen.Copy !req
121. Nobody got a Teamsters` loan
unless the guys in this room...Copy !req
122. knew they were gonna get
their little suitcases.Copy !req
123. Guys like this antique over here,
out of Detroit.Copy !req
124. Or especially guys like Remo Gaggi,
the outfit`s top boss.Copy !req
125. You got a round figure on it?Copy !req
126. - Definitely the most
important guy in this room.
- About 20 pounds.Copy !req
127. - That`s around 700,000.
- Uh-huh, good.Copy !req
128. I know it`s
a little early for Las Vegas...Copy !req
129. but I do want to welcome the ladies
and gentlemen of the gaming industry.Copy !req
130. As far as the world
was concerned...Copy !req
131. Andy Stone, the head of
the Teamsters` Pension Fund...Copy !req
132. - was a legitimate guy.
- This is a very auspicious occasion.Copy !req
133. - A powerful man.
- Philip, if you would rise.Copy !req
134. He even played golf
with the president.Copy !req
135. On behalf of the Teamsters`
Pension Fund...Copy !req
136. - it is my pleasure to present to you...
- But Andy also took orders.Copy !req
137. And when he was told to give
a pension fund loan to Philip Green...Copy !req
138. this check for $62,700,000...Copy !req
139. for the new Tangiers.Copy !req
140. he did what he was told.Copy !req
141. Now, here was
the perfect front man.Copy !req
142. What the fuck else could he be?
He didn`t know too much.Copy !req
143. He didn`t want to know
too much...Copy !req
144. especially that the bosses made
the Teamsters lend him the money.Copy !req
145. He wanted to believe
the Teamsters...Copy !req
146. gave him all that fuckin` money
`cause he was smart.Copy !req
147. I know full well how much competition
we have in this great city.Copy !req
148. And where they got Green from?Copy !req
149. Who the fuck knows?Copy !req
150. All I know is that Green was
an Arizona real estate hustler...Copy !req
151. who barely had
enough gas money...Copy !req
152. to come and pick up
his own fuckin` check.Copy !req
153. And of course it was
the bosses` man...Copy !req
154. Andy Stone,
who gave all the orders.Copy !req
155. Not the chairman
of the fuckin` board, Philip Green.Copy !req
156. I understand.
I understand.Copy !req
157. Now all they needed was...Copy !req
158. somebody they could trust
to run the casino.Copy !req
159. And who better than Ace? I mean, he was
already in Vegas a couple years...Copy !req
160. and he had
the fuckin` place clocked.Copy !req
161. But typical Ace, give him a shot
at runnin` a casino...Copy !req
162. and he tries
to talk you out of it.Copy !req
163. I don`t know if I could do this
even if I wanted to.Copy !req
164. The Gaming Commission
would never give me a license.Copy !req
165. I have at least two dozen
gambling and bookmaking pinches on me.Copy !req
166. You don`t have to have a license
to work in a casino.Copy !req
167. All you gotta do
is apply for one.Copy !req
168. The state law says that
you can work in a casino...Copy !req
169. while they`re processing
your application.Copy !req
170. They got a ten-year backlog.Copy !req
171. What happens when
they do find out?Copy !req
172. Why would they
want to find out?Copy !req
173. We`re puttin` a hundred million
into this desert.
Why would they want to lock us out?Copy !req
174. They`ll never find out. All you gotta do
is keep changing your job title.Copy !req
175. Like, uh, from Casino Executive
to Food and Beverage Chairman.Copy !req
176. They take your application,
they put it at the bottom of the pile.Copy !req
177. I know guys been workin` there
for 30 years, don`t have a license.Copy !req
178. It`s a tough proposition, Andy.Copy !req
179. You know if I did it,
I`d have to run it my way.Copy !req
180. You got it.Copy !req
181. I`m serious, no interference.Copy !req
182. Nobody`s gonna interfere
with your running the casino.Copy !req
183. I guarantee it.Copy !req
184. And that`s how
they got Ace to take over.Copy !req
185. They wanted him because Ace ate,
slept and breathed gambling.Copy !req
186. They worked out
a real cute job title too...Copy !req
187. Tangiers Public Relations Director.Copy !req
188. But the only thing he ever
directed was the casino.Copy !req
189. He made his first bet when he was
15 years old, and he always made money.Copy !req
190. But he didn`t bet
like you or me.Copy !req
191. You know, havin` some fun
with it, shit like that.Copy !req
192. Where the hell
did you learn how to deal?Copy !req
193. He bet like a fuckin`
brain surgeon.Copy !req
194. Place the checks properly.Copy !req
195. - That`s the way you do it.
- Yes, sir.Copy !req
196. He had to know everything,
this guy.Copy !req
197. He`d find out the kind
of inside stuff nobody else knew...Copy !req
198. and that`s what he`d put
his money on.Copy !req
199. Even back home, years ago...Copy !req
200. when we were first hangin` out...Copy !req
201. he`d know if the quarterback
was on coke...Copy !req
202. I`ll take Columbia for 20.Copy !req
203. - if his girlfriend was knocked up.
- Twenty dimes on Columbia.Copy !req
204. He`d get the wind velocity
so he could judge the field goals.Copy !req
205. He even figured out
the different bounce...Copy !req
206. you got off the different kinds
of wood they used...Copy !req
207. on college basketball courts,
you know?Copy !req
208. He`d be workin`
on this shit day and night.Copy !req
209. There was nothing about a game
he was gonna bet that he didn`t know.Copy !req
210. Ace got down at six.
Get me down at six.Copy !req
211. Season after season...Copy !req
212. the prick was the only
guaranteed winner I ever knew.Copy !req
213. But he was so serious
about it all...Copy !req
214. that I don`t think
he ever enjoyed himself.Copy !req
215. But that`s just the way he was.Copy !req
216. But back then, the bosses
didn`t give a fuck...Copy !req
217. about whether
he enjoyed himself or not.Copy !req
218. To them, he was
a cash register.Copy !req
219. All they had to do was
ring the bell and take money.Copy !req
220. Especially Remo...Copy !req
221. who was a fuckin` degenerate
gambler who always lost...Copy !req
222. Cazzo!Copy !req
223. All those fuckin` sweeps.Copy !req
224. - unless Ace made his bets.
- Enough now!Copy !req
225. Ace made more money
for them on a weekend...Copy !req
226. than I could do heisting
joints for a month.Copy !req
227. Whatever Ace picked up
on the street, he told Remo.Copy !req
228. I mean, fixed fights,
doped horses...Copy !req
229. crooked fuckin` zebras,
locked-in point spreads.Copy !req
230. He told fuckin` Remo everything.Copy !req
231. And to tell you the truth,
I don`t blame him.Copy !req
232. - Hey!
- Keepin` Remo happy with money...Copy !req
233. was the greatest insurance
policy in the world.Copy !req
234. Son of a bitch!Copy !req
235. How the hell did you get
Oklahoma-Michigan?Copy !req
236. Nobody ever had Oklahoma-Mi—
How the hell`d you do it?Copy !req
237. Well, that`s why
they paid so well.Copy !req
238. You see?
Never tells me nothin`.Copy !req
239. What do we got on
for next week?Copy !req
240. Well, it`s a little too early.
I`d say Thursday would be good.
Is that all right?Copy !req
241. - Okay, you`ll come by the house?
- I`ll come by.Copy !req
242. 7:00. Good job, my boy.
Keep it up? Okay, Ace?Copy !req
243. Hey, Nick. Vien acca.Copy !req
244. - I`ll be right out.
- T`aggia parla.Copy !req
245. Nicky, see that guy?
Keep a good eye on him.Copy !req
246. He`s makin`
a lot of money for us.Copy !req
247. And he`s gonna continue makin` a lot of
money for us, so keep a good eye on him.Copy !req
248. Not like your fuckin` friends
out there that— without brains.Copy !req
249. - Okay?
- All right.Copy !req
250. - Mi raccomando.
- Yeah. Want me to take this for you?Copy !req
251. So now,
on top of everything else...Copy !req
252. I gotta make sure nobody fucks around
with the golden Jew.Copy !req
253. Chase, couple of shooters
for the ladies.Copy !req
254. Yeah, we made a great pair.Copy !req
255. I made book and Nicky made sure
we always collected.Copy !req
256. The old men loved us,
and why not?Copy !req
257. - They all made money with us.
- They payin`?Copy !req
258. - How did Nicky collect?
- They pay every week,
like they`re supposed to.Copy !req
259. - Don`t ask.
- And where the fuck is the money?
I don`t see any money.Copy !req
260. - Hi, Melissa, Heidi.
- Hi, Sam.Copy !req
261. Who`s this guy?Copy !req
262. - Get the fuck out of here.
It was nine. I laid nine.
- It was eight.Copy !req
263. Ace, tell him the line
on the Bear game.Copy !req
264. - Eight.
- if he don`t know, nobody knows.Copy !req
265. - Told you it was eight.
- How come I laid nine?Copy !req
266. `Cause you're a jag-off.Copy !req
267. - Excuse me.
- What?Copy !req
268. - Is this yours? Your pen?
- Yeah, that`s my pen. Why?Copy !req
269. No, it`s a nice pen.
I just didn`t know whose it was.Copy !req
270. I thought it was yours.
I didn`t want it to get lost.Copy !req
271. Well, thank you.
Why don`t you take that fuckin` pen...Copy !req
272. and shove it up your ass,
you fuckin` jag-off.Copy !req
273. - Well, I was just offering you the—
- This fuckin` assho—Copy !req
274. Look out, Joe. Look out.Copy !req
275. What`s that?
You hear a little girl, Frankie?Copy !req
276. Hear a little girl, Ace?
Is that a little fuckin` girl?Copy !req
277. What happened
to the fuckin` tough guy...Copy !req
278. - told my friend to stick it
up his fuckin` ass?Copy !req
279. - Nicky, take it easy. Nicky, Nicky.Copy !req
280. While I was trying
to figure out why the guy was saying...Copy !req
281. what he was saying,
Nicky just hit him.Copy !req
282. No matter how big a guy might be,
Nicky would take him on.Copy !req
283. You beat Nicky with fists,
he comes back with a bat.Copy !req
284. You beat him with a knife,
he comes back with a gun.Copy !req
285. And if you beat him with a gun,
you better kill him...Copy !req
286. because he`ll keep coming
back and back...Copy !req
287. until one of you is dead.Copy !req
288. Listen,
with me protectin` Ace...Copy !req
289. he made a fortune
for the bosses.Copy !req
290. I mean, that`s
what got him to Vegas.Copy !req
291. He was a money machine.Copy !req
292. A tremendous earner
for these guys.Copy !req
293. As soon as he took over,
he doubled the fuckin` drop.Copy !req
294. With Ace, the casino
never saw so much money.Copy !req
295. And the bosses,
they couldn`t be happier.Copy !req
296. ÷ I got $700 ÷Copy !req
297. ÷ Don`t you mess with me ÷Copy !req
298. ÷ But you know I`m down ÷Copy !req
299. ÷ Everybody knows I`m down ÷÷Copy !req
300. In Vegas, I had to keep
a few juiced-in local cowboys working.Copy !req
301. They were close to the,
you know, good old boys.Copy !req
302. I mean, without us, these guys,
they`d still be shoveling mule shit.Copy !req
303. Ward, you`ve got to keep
a cleaner space.Copy !req
304. if you need Mr. Clean,
page him, all right?Copy !req
305. Won`t happen again, Sam.Copy !req
306. - Mr. Rothstein.
- Mr. Rothstein. Won`t
happen again, Mr. Rothstein.Copy !req
307. Is this guy just another dumb fucking
white man, or what? What`s the story?Copy !req
308. - You need this guy.
- Can`t get rid of him?Copy !req
309. He`s juiced in.
He`s the County Commissioner`s cousin.Copy !req
310. I wouldn`t give the bum
a mop job.Copy !req
311. But still, I had no choice.
I had to take care of them.Copy !req
312. These yokels ran the state.Copy !req
313. Thank you very much,
Senator.Copy !req
314. - They passed the laws,
they owned the courts.
- Hi, Ace. Hey, I need a room.Copy !req
315. - I had dozens of politicians
and state officials...
- The Cedar Room.Copy !req
316. coming through that place
every week.Copy !req
317. - Help the Senator,
get him whatever he wants.
- Certainly.Copy !req
318. Why not make him happy?Copy !req
319. the Presidential Suite.Copy !req
320. For politicians like our State Senator
up there, everything was on the house.Copy !req
321. These guys won their comp life
when they got elected...Copy !req
322. so, hey, why not
take advantage of it.Copy !req
323. Still, the politicians came cheap.
We could handle them.Copy !req
324. It`s a whale
like K.K. Ichikawa...Copy !req
325. who plays $30,000 a hand
in baccarat...Copy !req
326. that`s the one
you really gotta watch.Copy !req
327. He plays fast and big
and he has the cash and the credit...Copy !req
328. to turn out your lights.Copy !req
329. About a year ago he cleaned out a couple
of casinos in the Cayman lslands.Copy !req
330. Downstairs he takes us
for two million...Copy !req
331. and upstairs he takes free
soap, shampoo and towels.Copy !req
332. Another billionaire cheapskate
who loved his free rooms...Copy !req
333. free private jets and
two million of our money.Copy !req
334. But we got him back.Copy !req
335. I had our pilot tell him
the plane was on the fritz.Copy !req
336. I don`t know what the hell went wrong.
I`m awfully sorry.Copy !req
337. I can`t understand it. These mechanical
things, you know they happen.Copy !req
338. Hey, but better here than
up there, you know what I mean.Copy !req
339. Then he missed the commercial
flights connecting with Japan.Copy !req
340. I can`t believe that there`s
a convention; there`s no room.Copy !req
341. We got him back with a whole floor
of rooms to himself.Copy !req
342. - I`m sorry you missed your plane.
- Glad to get to know you.Copy !req
343. Oh, no. No gambling.Copy !req
344. And once he was back,
he played small.Copy !req
345. He bet 1,000 a hand,
instead of his usual 30,000 a hand.Copy !req
346. to the bank
with a natural lead over a five.Copy !req
347. But I knew the trick
with whales like lchikawa...Copy !req
348. was that they can`t bet
small for long.Copy !req
349. He didn`t think of it
as winning 10,000...Copy !req
350. he thought of it
as losing 90,000.Copy !req
351. So, he upped his bets.Copy !req
352. Until he dropped his winnings back
and gave up a million of his own cash.Copy !req
353. In the casino, the cardinal rule
is to keep them playing...Copy !req
354. and keep them coming back.Copy !req
355. The longer they play,
the more they lose.Copy !req
356. In the end, we get it all.Copy !req
357. ÷ Goddamn it
Trying to make it real ÷Copy !req
358. ÷ Compared to what ÷Copy !req
359. ÷ Sock it to me ÷Copy !req
360. In Vegas, everybody`s
gotta watch everybody else.Copy !req
361. Six. All right,
who`s gonna give me that?Copy !req
362. Since the players are looking
to beat the casino...Copy !req
363. Each and every roll,
all right.Copy !req
364. - the dealers are watching
the players...
- Six.Copy !req
365. - Fake a six.
- the boxmen are watching the dealers.Copy !req
366. the floormen are watching
the boxmen...Copy !req
367. the pit bosses are watching
the floormen...Copy !req
368. the shift bosses are watching
the pit bosses...Copy !req
369. the casino manager is watching
the shift bosses...Copy !req
370. I`m watching the casino manager...Copy !req
371. and the eye in the sky
is watching us all.Copy !req
372. Plus, we had
a dozen guys up there...Copy !req
373. most of them ex-cheats, who knew
every trick in the house.Copy !req
374. ÷ Tryin` to make it real
compared to what ÷Copy !req
375. Yes!Copy !req
376. - Very nice.
- I told you I was hot tonight.Copy !req
377. Lookin` good.
Lookin` good.Copy !req
378. Let`s go.
This is for Ginger. Come on.Copy !req
379. Let me have a hundred
on your hard ten.Copy !req
380. Hundred on your hard ten.
Thank you.Copy !req
381. Here we go now.
Yeeeow!Copy !req
382. - Oh, I`m sorry.
- The dice—Copy !req
383. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.Copy !req
384. - Thank you, sir. I appreciate it.
- You were great.Copy !req
385. Thanks. Take care, Steve.
Take chances, drive fast.Copy !req
386. This hundred is for you, love.
Thanks for your time.Copy !req
387. - Come on.
- What`s the matter?Copy !req
388. What do you mean? I made a lot
of money for you, I want my cut.Copy !req
389. What money? I`ve seen
you stealing from me.Copy !req
390. What money?
Look at the stack of chips.Copy !req
391. - I want my half.
- I`ve been watching you all night.Copy !req
392. - I want my money.
- Your bag is full of fucking chips.Copy !req
393. - I didn`t steal anything from you.
- Get lost!Copy !req
394. Get lost? Get lost?
Yes! Yes!Copy !req
395. - Well, how about that?
- Come on!Copy !req
396. ÷ Slippin` and a-slidin` ÷
Changin` and a-hidin` ÷Copy !req
397. ÷ Been told a long time ago ÷Copy !req
398. ÷ I been told
Baby, you`ve been born ÷Copy !req
399. ÷ I won`t be your fool no more
Oww ÷Copy !req
400. ÷ Baby, oh, baby ÷Copy !req
401. ÷ My sweet baby ÷Copy !req
402. ÷ You`re the one ÷Copy !req
403. What a move.Copy !req
404. I fell in love right there.Copy !req
405. But in Vegas, for a girl
like Ginger, love costs money.Copy !req
406. ÷ What`s different about him ÷Copy !req
407. ÷ I don`t really know ÷Copy !req
408. I`m gonna go powder my nose.Copy !req
409. ÷ No matter how I try ÷Copy !req
410. ÷ I just can`t make him cry ÷Copy !req
411. - Ginger`s mission
in life was money.
- I`ll be right back.Copy !req
412. - See you, Ginger.
- Okay, thank you for asking.Copy !req
413. She was a queen
around the casino.Copy !req
414. She brought in high rollers...Copy !req
415. and helped them spread
around a lot of money.Copy !req
416. - Hello.
- Hey, Ginger. How you doing?Copy !req
417. Great, and I have something for you.
You got me covered?Copy !req
418. - And you do. Thank you very much.
- Take care of yourself.Copy !req
419. - I got some lucky pills for you, Andy.
- Oh, yeah.Copy !req
420. Who didn`t want Ginger?
She was one of the best known...Copy !req
421. best liked and
most respected hustlers in town.Copy !req
422. Smart hustlers like her
could keep a guy awake...Copy !req
423. for two or three days
before sending him home broke...Copy !req
424. to the little woman
and his bank examiners.Copy !req
425. ÷ You only make me glad ÷Copy !req
426. ÷ Better listen, little girl ÷Copy !req
427. ÷ You`re goin` walkin`
down the street ÷Copy !req
428. ÷ I ain`t got no love ÷Copy !req
429. Any change?Copy !req
430. Oh, I hit a few games
on the way back.Copy !req
431. But that was all bullshit.
She just pocketed the cash.Copy !req
432. ÷ This heart of stone ÷Copy !req
433. - How you doin` tonight?
- Good.Copy !req
434. - How are you?
- Uh, beat.Copy !req
435. - Ginger had the hustlers code.
- Take one for you.Copy !req
436. - Thank you.
- She knew how to take care of people.Copy !req
437. And that`s what Vegas
is all about.Copy !req
438. - Sixty-eight hundred.
- Thanks.Copy !req
439. - It`s kickback city.
- Have a good night.Copy !req
440. Thank you. You too.Copy !req
441. - She took care of the dealers...
- Hey, Mitch.Copy !req
442. pit bosses, floor managers...Copy !req
443. but, mostly, she took care
of the valet parkers...Copy !req
444. the guys who could get you anything
and take care of anything.Copy !req
445. Ginger took care of the parkers...Copy !req
446. because they took care
of the security guards...Copy !req
447. - who took care of the metro cops,
who let her operate.
- I need that stuff tonight.Copy !req
448. - No problem.
- You are a doll.Copy !req
449. The valet parking job
was such a money-maker...Copy !req
450. they had to pay off the hotel manager
just to get the concession.Copy !req
451. But one thing
I just could never understand...Copy !req
452. was that she could have
everything under control...Copy !req
453. except for her old pimp
boyfriend, Lester Diamond.Copy !req
454. Gin, you know I got other people
in this, they got partners.Copy !req
455. I want you to understand
that I am looking out for you...Copy !req
456. in this thing, okay?Copy !req
457. You`re gonna get yours back,
and you're gonna get back first, okay?Copy !req
458. - All right, yeah.
- Where you going?Copy !req
459. Where are you? You`re
in that place. Where are you?Copy !req
460. - I`m here.
- No, you're not.Copy !req
461. Where are you?
Where are you?Copy !req
462. I`m always here for you.Copy !req
463. - You`re my woman.
- I know.Copy !req
464. The Ginger I knew wouldn`t
even look at this creep.Copy !req
465. - Good luck.
- Yeah.Copy !req
466. He was a moocher,
a card cheat...Copy !req
467. a country club golf hustler,
a scumbag.Copy !req
468. - Chasing dentists for a few bucks.
- Careful.Copy !req
469. The guy was always broke.
He always had a story.Copy !req
470. And somehow she could never
turn him down.Copy !req
471. The way Ginger saw it, I guess,
was that Lester was just an unlucky guy.Copy !req
472. Somebody had
to take care of him.Copy !req
473. But nobody
had to take care of Nicky.Copy !req
474. if you find any cash in there,
we`ll whack it up with you.Copy !req
475. I mean, he took care
of himself only too well.Copy !req
476. - That`s why every badge...
- I folded these things beautifully.Copy !req
477. - back home wanted to nail him.
- I would appreciate a little respect.Copy !req
478. - Look at me, pal,
I gotta live with her.
- Jesus Christ.Copy !req
479. ÷ Volare ÷Copy !req
480. Even after a little vacation,
they hassled him at the airport.Copy !req
481. I mean, Frank Marino was there
to meet him, but so were the cops.Copy !req
482. This time they wanted
to pinch him...Copy !req
483. - for some diamond burglary in Antwerp.
- Will you help me fold these?Copy !req
484. They were ready to blame him for
anything, no matter where it happened.Copy !req
485. - Put your things away.
- And they were usually right.Copy !req
486. - Hold it, hold it. Here.
- Because Nicky enjoyed
being a gangster.Copy !req
487. - And he didn`t give a damn who knew it.
- Come on, there we go.Copy !req
488. Look at this. Beautiful!Copy !req
489. I mean, that`s what worried me.
`Cause it turns out,
Nicky was about to be sent to Vegas.Copy !req
490. - All right, we`re clear.
- There`s more.Copy !req
491. There`s a couple stuck in there.
I know there`s more.Copy !req
492. - I`m telling you, they`re out!
- Come on.Copy !req
493. Don`t get so defensive,
it could be stuck in your hair.Copy !req
494. What`s that?
Huh, what`s that?Copy !req
495. There`s no more.
Thanks, hon.Copy !req
496. I couldn`t wait to get
my hands on Vegas.Copy !req
497. But the bosses didn`t send me
out there to have a good time.Copy !req
498. They sent me out there to make sure
that nobody fucked with Ace.Copy !req
499. And nobody interfered
with the fuckin` skim.Copy !req
500. - Hey.
- Hey, how you doin`?Copy !req
501. Hey, Sammy.Copy !req
502. - Boy, look at this place, huh?
- lncredible.Copy !req
503. Welcome to Vegas.Copy !req
504. - Okay, Sammy.
- Something, huh?Copy !req
505. Ginger.Copy !req
506. Holy shit. What`ve you
been doing out here?Copy !req
507. Honey, come here.Copy !req
508. This is Jennifer and Nick,
they`re dear friends of mine.Copy !req
509. - Hi, Jennifer.
- A pleasure.Copy !req
510. Okay, Sammy.Copy !req
511. After we ate,
we left Jennifer and Ginger alone...Copy !req
512. and we took a ride to talk.Copy !req
513. And then, he hit me with it.Copy !req
514. What do you think about me
moving out here?Copy !req
515. What`s the matter?
You got a problem with that?Copy !req
516. - No, of course not.
- You mean, I have your permission?Copy !req
517. Sure, you have my permission.
But I just gotta tell you...Copy !req
518. it`s no joke out here,
it`s no joke.Copy !req
519. You gotta keep a low profile.Copy !req
520. It`s not like back home. Right off
the bat, they don`t like guys like us.Copy !req
521. And this sheriff`s
a real cowboy.Copy !req
522. Even the coppers aren`t afraid
to bury people out in the desert here.Copy !req
523. I don`t care. I wanna get away
from back home for a while.Copy !req
524. I`m tired of that shit
back there.Copy !req
525. Look at this place.
It`s made of money.Copy !req
526. You know what the best part is?
Nobody`s gonna know what we`re doing.Copy !req
527. There`s nobody here to see us.
Everybody`s back home.Copy !req
528. Nick, I gotta tell you.
I got pinched twice for no reason.Copy !req
529. I really gotta be careful.Copy !req
530. I`m running a licensed place,
everything`s legit.Copy !req
531. Don`t worry about it.
I`m not gonna do anything.Copy !req
532. I`m especially not gonna
involve you in anything.Copy !req
533. Ace saw Vegas one way...Copy !req
534. - You call this guy
and tell him I`m comin`?
- Of course.Copy !req
535. but I saw it another.Copy !req
536. I saw it as untouched.Copy !req
537. I mean, they had bookies, pimps...Copy !req
538. and drug dealers
I could shake down.Copy !req
539. Who the fuck
were they gonna run to?Copy !req
540. So I started gettin`
everybody in line.Copy !req
541. Best of all,
for the first time in my life...Copy !req
542. I figured out a way
not to lose.Copy !req
543. Yeah, he had
a foolproof scheme, all right.Copy !req
544. It wasn`t very scientific,
but it worked.Copy !req
545. When he won, he collected;Copy !req
546. when he lost, he told the bookies
to go fuck themselves.Copy !req
547. What were they gonna do,
muscle Nicky?Copy !req
548. - Hey, how you doin`?
- How you doin`?Copy !req
549. - You got that thing for me?
- What thing?Copy !req
550. Oh, Nicky. I thought
you was layin`.Copy !req
551. No, no, I`m takin`.
I was takin`.Copy !req
552. - You sure?
- I`m positive.Copy !req
553. - I`m a little confused.
- You`re a little confused?Copy !req
554. Maybe if I stick your fuckin`
face through this window...Copy !req
555. you`ll get unconfused.Copy !req
556. - Gimme the fuckin` money.
- I`m sorry, Nick.Copy !req
557. I didn`t mean anything by it.Copy !req
558. That`s why you had it ready.
You thought I was fuckin` layin` it?Copy !req
559. - My fuckin` head.
- Smarten up.Copy !req
560. And now Nicholas Santoro will come up
and tell us about our first president.Copy !req
561. George Washington was born—Copy !req
562. But still,
it was nice and quiet for a while.Copy !req
563. Ginger and I presented
Nicky and Jennifer all over town...Copy !req
564. like regular Ozzie and Harriets.Copy !req
565. Beautiful, you got
a beautiful swing.Copy !req
566. Ace got my son, little Nicky,
involved in Little League.Copy !req
567. Turned out to be one
of the other coaches...Copy !req
568. was a fuckin`
metro intelligence cop.Copy !req
569. But it didn`t matter.
It was all about the kids.Copy !req
570. He`s gotta realize that everything
can`t be a home run that he does.Copy !req
571. That`s exactly what
I keep tellin` him...Copy !req
572. but that`s the kind of kid he is.Copy !req
573. And Nicky being Nicky,
he made his presence known.Copy !req
574. Especially at the casino,
where he definitely did not work...Copy !req
575. people got the message.Copy !req
576. Me, that`s why
the bosses sent me out here.Copy !req
577. They wanted me to make sure none
of the other crews robbed the joint.Copy !req
578. Like these two fuckin`
balloon heads over here.Copy !req
579. They were gonna try to bang us
out of 200 fuckin` grand...Copy !req
580. - yeah, right, I`m sure.
- Hey! How are you?Copy !req
581. How are you?
What are you doing here?Copy !req
582. I`m over here now.Copy !req
583. - You`re over here?
- Yeah, I`m over here with them.Copy !req
584. We`re waiting on Carmine.Copy !req
585. Yeah, we`re looking
for Carmine.Copy !req
586. He was here before. He had
a suitcase and then he left.Copy !req
587. - Carmine left?
- Carmine left?Copy !req
588. He`s gone?Copy !req
589. He`s not here?Copy !req
590. Carmine`s out?Copy !req
591. I think maybe he went
across the street...Copy !req
592. or somewhere else
or somethin`.Copy !req
593. Well, listen, good luck
with the joint.Copy !req
594. - Ah, thanks, Eddie.
- Yeah, lots of luck.Copy !req
595. - Yeah, good luck to you too.
- Hey, they forgot to sign their papers.Copy !req
596. Yeah, they don`t
need those anymore.Copy !req
597. Guys from other crews
got away with a warning.Copy !req
598. Everybody else, watch out.Copy !req
599. Like these yokels here...Copy !req
600. who never heard of Nicky
or the bosses back home.Copy !req
601. `Cause they`re the morons
who give you the most trouble.Copy !req
602. Even after we`d catch them,
they`d try sneaking back...Copy !req
603. with beards
and wigs and fake noses.Copy !req
604. You can spot these assholes
by watching the way they bet.Copy !req
605. Like this guy,
he`s bettin` lavender chips...Copy !req
606. at 500 each with only
one little problem...Copy !req
607. he`s always guessed right.Copy !req
608. if he wasn`t so fuckin` greedy,
he`d have been tougher to spot.Copy !req
609. But in the end,
they`re all greedy.Copy !req
610. ÷ I got a feelin`
about the future ÷Copy !req
611. ÷ And it ain`t too good
I know that ÷Copy !req
612. I saw that the dealer was weak,
but he wasn`t in on it.Copy !req
613. He just wasn`t
protecting his hand.Copy !req
614. He was lifting
his hole card way too high.Copy !req
615. Now, here`s this guy reading
the dealer`s hole card...Copy !req
616. and signaling his buddy
at this table.Copy !req
617. And that`s just what
these hustlers look for.Copy !req
618. They cruise from casino to casino
looking for weak dealers...Copy !req
619. the way lions
look for weak antelope.Copy !req
620. Operator, this is Mr. R.Copy !req
621. Get me Armstrong and Friday
over at pit two right away.Copy !req
622. BJ 19, second base, the beard.Copy !req
623. Operator, I need Mr. Happy. Loud.Copy !req
624. ÷ Happy birthday to you ÷Copy !req
625. ÷ Happy birthday to you ÷Copy !req
626. ÷ Happy birthday, dear Jeff ÷Copy !req
627. ÷ Happy birthday to you ÷Copy !req
628. Man down!Copy !req
629. Go get medical.
We got a cardiac arrest here.Copy !req
630. He`s fine, folks.
Just give us some room, please.Copy !req
631. They never know
what hit them.Copy !req
632. And if and when
they do find out...Copy !req
633. that they just got zapped
by a cattle prod...Copy !req
634. they wish they really did
have a heart attack.Copy !req
635. Turns out this guy
and his fuckin` pals...Copy !req
636. they were knocking
this place dead for years.Copy !req
637. - He`s got a wire on him.
- Hey, hey, what are you doing?Copy !req
638. There it is.
That`s it.Copy !req
639. - Cheater`s justice.
- Oh, God!Copy !req
640. No, no, no!Copy !req
641. I wanted everybody to know...Copy !req
642. that things were changed
around here.Copy !req
643. We had to make an example
of these pricks...Copy !req
644. that the party was over.Copy !req
645. I`m just curious.
I saw you shuffling your checks...Copy !req
646. with your right hand.Copy !req
647. - Can you do that with both hands?
- No.Copy !req
648. - You can`t do it with both hands?
- No, sir.Copy !req
649. Can you do it
with your left hand?Copy !req
650. Well, I never tried.Copy !req
651. - So, you're a righty.
- Yeah.Copy !req
652. Now you're gonna have to learn
with your left hand.Copy !req
653. - It`s 100, 110, I think.
- Yes, it is.Copy !req
654. Okay.Copy !req
655. Hiya. That`s a lot of money
to be counting out in public.Copy !req
656. Why don`t I take him...Copy !req
657. over to the office
and verify it?Copy !req
658. A little privacy.
And by the way...Copy !req
659. send over a nice bottle
of champagne on ice.Copy !req
660. - Sure will.
- Real special.Copy !req
661. - By the way, I`m Billy Sherbert,
casino manager.
- Hi.Copy !req
662. - Having a good time?
- Yes.Copy !req
663. You want to count
the money in privacy.Copy !req
664. I have a plane to catch to Cleveland.
Can I get my winnings?Copy !req
665. Look what they did
to my hand, man.Copy !req
666. All right,
I`m gonna give you a choice:Copy !req
667. You can either have the money and
the hammer or you can walk out of here.Copy !req
668. - What do you want?
- I just wanna get out of here.Copy !req
669. And don`t forget to tell your friends
what happens if they fuck around here.Copy !req
670. - I`m sorry, I made a bad mistake.
- You`re fuckin` right
you made a bad mistake.Copy !req
671. `Cause if you come back here,
and we catch either one of you...Copy !req
672. we`re gonna break your heads,
and you won`t walk out of here.Copy !req
673. You see that fuckin` saw?
We`re gonna use it. You got it?Copy !req
674. - Get out of here.
- Thank you.Copy !req
675. Throw him in the alley and tell
the cops he got hit by a car.Copy !req
676. Within no time,
everything was set in place.Copy !req
677. We got rid
of the freelance scamsters...Copy !req
678. the per was way up,
the gods were happy.Copy !req
679. And I decided
to complicate my life.Copy !req
680. For a guy who likes sure things...Copy !req
681. I was about to bet the rest
of my life on a real long shot.Copy !req
682. We`re not gettin` any younger.Copy !req
683. Don`t you think it`s time?Copy !req
684. Aren`t you gettin` tired
of all this shit?Copy !req
685. What, are you trying
to handicap me?Copy !req
686. I`m gonna do you one better.Copy !req
687. I`m tryin` to marry you.Copy !req
688. You wanna marry me?Copy !req
689. I`m serious.Copy !req
690. I wanna settle down.
I want a family.Copy !req
691. You got the wrong girl, Sam.Copy !req
692. I know I`d be a good father,
you`d be a good mother.Copy !req
693. You don`t know me.Copy !req
694. You`ve known me two,
three months.Copy !req
695. I`m 43 years old.
I don`t want to wait.Copy !req
696. I know you well enough
to know that I really love you.Copy !req
697. And I can`t think
of anybody better to be with.Copy !req
698. And I don`t feel like
waiting anymore.Copy !req
699. You know a lot of happily
married people, Sam?Copy !req
700. `Cause I don`t.Copy !req
701. Yeah, I know all that.Copy !req
702. I care about you, okay.Copy !req
703. But I just don`t have those kind
of feelings for you.Copy !req
704. I`m sorry.
I`m not in love with you.Copy !req
705. - All right, all right.
- Understand?Copy !req
706. Sam, I`m sorry.Copy !req
707. No, I— I—Copy !req
708. I mean— I can grow.Copy !req
709. As long as there`s a mutual respect,
that kind of thing can grow.Copy !req
710. I`m realistic.
I can accept that.Copy !req
711. What is love anyway?Copy !req
712. It`s a mutual respect.
It`s a devotion.Copy !req
713. It`s a caring
from one person to another.Copy !req
714. And if we could set up
some kind of foundation...Copy !req
715. based on that mutual respect...Copy !req
716. I feel eventually you
would care enough about me...Copy !req
717. that I could live
with that.Copy !req
718. if it doesn`t work out,
doesn`t play out...Copy !req
719. then what happens to me?Copy !req
720. You know I`m doing well now,
and I`m gonna do even better.Copy !req
721. And so whatever happens...Copy !req
722. if it doesn`t work out
between us...Copy !req
723. I`m gonna make sure you're okay
for the rest of your life.Copy !req
724. And if there are kids,
especially...Copy !req
725. I`ll take care of you
better than you`d ever imagine.Copy !req
726. What are you pitching me?Copy !req
727. Just what I said,
you`ll be set up...Copy !req
728. for the rest of your life,
that I can promise you.Copy !req
729. Want to take a chance?Copy !req
730. When I married Ginger,
I knew all the stories.Copy !req
731. But I didn`t give a fuck.
I`m Sam Rothstein, I said.Copy !req
732. I can change her.Copy !req
733. It was typical Ace.Copy !req
734. He invited the biggest people
in town, and he knew they`d show.Copy !req
735. Because he knew they all wanted
somethin` from him.Copy !req
736. With Ace, nobody ever got
a free ride, even Ginger.Copy !req
737. With her, he still
covered his bets.Copy !req
738. They had to have the baby
before they could get married.Copy !req
739. He even made Jenny and me
watch Amy for a few days...Copy !req
740. when they went
on their honeymoon.Copy !req
741. But I didn`t mind,
we loved the kid.Copy !req
742. Can you feel my eyes on you?Copy !req
743. Can you feel me
look into your heart?Copy !req
744. Can you feel me
in the pit of your stomach?Copy !req
745. Can you feel me in you?Copy !req
746. In your heart?Copy !req
747. Don`t make me come there.Copy !req
748. Answer me.Copy !req
749. I love you.Copy !req
750. But, baby, do you know
that I love you too?Copy !req
751. - No, Lester.
- Do you know that?Copy !req
752. This is the best thing I can do
for my life right now.Copy !req
753. That`s right.
So it`s going to be okay.Copy !req
754. Promise?Copy !req
755. I wish you all the luck
in the world.Copy !req
756. You do?Copy !req
757. Yeah, I do. It`s the best thing
you can do right now.Copy !req
758. I mean this.Copy !req
759. You have real security.Copy !req
760. Sweetheart, you're gonna be
situated just right, in Vegas.Copy !req
761. Come on. This is great for us.Copy !req
762. I`m always gonna be here for you.Copy !req
763. I ain`t going no place.Copy !req
764. I`m lookin` at you right now.Copy !req
765. I`m seein` you for the very first time,
right this minute.Copy !req
766. I can feel my heart click.Copy !req
767. I see you 14 years old.Copy !req
768. I see you the first second
I ever saw you.Copy !req
769. I see you,
long-legged little colt...Copy !req
770. stupid braces on your teeth.Copy !req
771. - Okay, then.
- Every time I ever see you,
that`s what I see.Copy !req
772. Talk to you later.Copy !req
773. Bye.Copy !req
774. You all right?Copy !req
775. Yeah.Copy !req
776. Why are you crying?Copy !req
777. I`m not crying.Copy !req
778. Maybe you shouldn`t
drink so much.Copy !req
779. I`m okay, I just—Copy !req
780. You just have to understand.Copy !req
781. I`ve been with Lester
since I was a kid.Copy !req
782. I just wanted to say good-bye.Copy !req
783. I just— I don`t—Copy !req
784. I think I have
a right to do that.Copy !req
785. Okay?Copy !req
786. It`s all right.Copy !req
787. That part of your life
is over with.Copy !req
788. - Right?
- Yeah.Copy !req
789. You`re with me now.Copy !req
790. - Yeah.
- Right?Copy !req
791. Uh-huh.Copy !req
792. - You`re sure?
- Yeah.Copy !req
793. Yeah.Copy !req
794. - Let`s go. Let`s go back in.
- Okay.Copy !req
795. Oh!Copy !req
796. Tsk. It`s great.Copy !req
797. It`s great.Copy !req
798. It`s all my stuff.
Oh, my God.Copy !req
799. You brought all my stuff!Copy !req
800. I can`t—Copy !req
801. Try it on. It`s yours.Copy !req
802. You`re kidding.Copy !req
803. Oh, my God.
What is it?Copy !req
804. It`s chinchilla.Copy !req
805. Oh, it`s so soft.Copy !req
806. Nice, isn`t it?Copy !req
807. No one`s ever been
so nice to me.Copy !req
808. Oh!Copy !req
809. Oh, my God!Copy !req
810. So, do you think
it`s too much...Copy !req
811. if I wear these
all on the same day?Copy !req
812. You do whatever
you want.Copy !req
813. Do I keep my promises or
do I keep my promises?Copy !req
814. So wonderful. The jewelry`s
not so bad either.Copy !req
815. We shouldn`t keep this in the house.
We gotta put it in the bank.Copy !req
816. Come on. Can I keep this one
in the house?Copy !req
817. Pay attention to me.Copy !req
818. - What I`m gonna tell you
is very important.
- Okay.Copy !req
819. All this stuff
doesn`t mean anything.Copy !req
820. Money, this doesn`t mean
anything without trust.Copy !req
821. I have to be able
to trust you with my life.Copy !req
822. With over a million
in cash and jewels...Copy !req
823. tucked in a bank in Vegas, only
for Ginger, she was secure and happy.Copy !req
824. She loved that shit.Copy !req
825. But a guy in my line of work has
to have a lot of payoff cash around.Copy !req
826. Crooked cops and kidnappers,
they don`t take checks.Copy !req
827. Need any help with that,
Mr. Collins?Copy !req
828. So I put two million in cash
in a Los Angeles bank...Copy !req
829. under the name
of Mr. And Mrs. Tom Collins.Copy !req
830. This was strictly my shakedown
and kidnapping money.Copy !req
831. And since I`d either be in jail
or locked in a closet...Copy !req
832. when I needed the money
the most...Copy !req
833. I gave Ginger the only key to the cash
that could get me back alive.Copy !req
834. - ÷ I`ll take you there ÷
- ÷ I`m callin`, callin` ÷Copy !req
835. ÷ Callin` for mercy ÷Copy !req
836. - ÷ I`ll take you there ÷
- ÷ Mercy, mercy ÷Copy !req
837. ÷ I`ll take you there ÷Copy !req
838. This is a signature card.Copy !req
839. So once she signs those papers,
she`ll be the only person...Copy !req
840. to have total access to the box,
no one else, including myself?Copy !req
841. That`s right.
That`s the way you wanted it.Copy !req
842. Sam, let me ask you a question.Copy !req
843. You must really trust your wife.Copy !req
844. Yeah, sure I do. Why?Copy !req
845. It`s good.
It`s just unusual.Copy !req
846. Tell you the truth,
so many of my clients don`t.Copy !req
847. - ÷ Let me take you there ÷
- ÷ I`ll take you there ÷Copy !req
848. - ÷ Ain`t no smilin` faces ÷
- ÷ I`ll take you there ÷÷Copy !req
849. ÷ Never will I know happiness ÷Copy !req
850. With Ginger and the money
in place, I felt covered.Copy !req
851. And to play it safe,
I switched job titles again...Copy !req
852. and made myself
Food and Beverage Director.Copy !req
853. This way nobody would bother me
about a license.Copy !req
854. I mean Vegas was
like a dream for me.Copy !req
855. Trouble was, Nicky was dreaming
his own kind of Vegas.Copy !req
856. I put money out on the street
chargin` three points a week.Copy !req
857. - Don`t make us come lookin` for you.
- Juice to the fuckin` dealers.Copy !req
858. You won`t have to look
for me.Copy !req
859. I appreciate it.
Thanks, Nicky.Copy !req
860. They were degenerate gamblers,
coke freaks.Copy !req
861. In no time I had half the dealers
in the Tangiers in my pocket.Copy !req
862. Then, I started bustin` out
high-stakes poker players.Copy !req
863. It was so obvious.Copy !req
864. - All of Nicky`s half-assed
mechanics were signal-happy.
- I`m gonna open for 500.Copy !req
865. Signaling back and forth.Copy !req
866. Why you cryin`
with two loaves of bread under your arm?Copy !req
867. Nicky thought nobody was watching him.
But he was wrong.Copy !req
868. And I didn`t want
any of those agents near my place.Copy !req
869. - Four aces.
- I can`t believe this.Copy !req
870. if I didn`t have
bad luck, I wouldn`t have any luck.Copy !req
871. I wished to God Nicky and
his whole crew would just get lost.Copy !req
872. What am I gonna do?
Go back home and start a war?Copy !req
873. Nicky`s a made guy, and I`m not.
I can`t do that.Copy !req
874. Be careful. Gaming agents
are all over the place.Copy !req
875. So I`m lucky. I`m not allowed
to get lucky in this place?Copy !req
876. You`ve been lucky all week.
They`re looking to nail you.Copy !req
877. Ace was so fuckin` worried
about his casino...Copy !req
878. he forgot what we were doin`
out here in the first place.Copy !req
879. A million times I wanted to yell
in his fuckin` ear...Copy !req
880. "This is Las Vegas.Copy !req
881. We`re supposed to be
out here robbin`...Copy !req
882. you dumb fuckin` hebe."Copy !req
883. I don`t give a shit
who he`s connected to.Copy !req
884. Tell him to take
his fuckin` feet off the table.Copy !req
885. What`s he think this is,
a goddamned sawdust joint?Copy !req
886. Sir, would you mind
taking your feet off the table?Copy !req
887. Yeah, I would mind.
I`m having a bad night.Copy !req
888. Fuckin` asshole won`t budge.Copy !req
889. Call security.Copy !req
890. - How are you?
- Good. How are you?Copy !req
891. Wanna do me a favor? Take your feet off
the table and put your shoes back on.Copy !req
892. Fuck you!Copy !req
893. I want you to exit this guy
off the premises...Copy !req
894. and use his head
to open the fucking door.Copy !req
895. Sir, you're gonna have to leave.
Wanna come with us outside?Copy !req
896. Bullshit. I ain`t goin`
anywhere with you.Copy !req
897. - Bullshit. You`re outta here.
- Fuck you!Copy !req
898. You know who you're
fucking with? Do you?Copy !req
899. You fucking faggot! Do you know
who you're fucking with?Copy !req
900. Leave me alone!Copy !req
901. - Come on!
- You guys are killing me!Copy !req
902. Sure enough, an hour later,
I get the call.Copy !req
903. Ace, what happened over there?
Did you know that guy was with me?Copy !req
904. No, I didn`t know that.
But you know what he did?Copy !req
905. I walked over to him politely,
and he tells me to fuck myself.Copy !req
906. - Then he called me a faggot.
- What?Copy !req
907. - I threw that cocksucker out.
- Hey, come here.Copy !req
908. You called my friend a faggot?
You tell him to fuck himself?Copy !req
909. - Is that what you did?
Tell him to go fuck himself?Copy !req
910. Come here. Come here.Copy !req
911. You go over there.
You apologize.Copy !req
912. You better hope
he lets you back in.Copy !req
913. if you get outta line again,
I`ll smash your head so hard...Copy !req
914. you won`t be able
to get that cowboy hat on.Copy !req
915. Fuckin` hick.
Sammy, listen.Copy !req
916. This guy obviously doesn`t know
who he was talking to.Copy !req
917. He doesn`t know that
we`re dear friends.Copy !req
918. I mean, he`s already
very sorry.Copy !req
919. But if you could do me a favor
and let him back in...Copy !req
920. I swear he`ll never
get out of line again.Copy !req
921. if he does it again,
he`s out for good.Copy !req
922. I don`t care what it is,
I`ll never let him in the place again.Copy !req
923. I`m sorry about this, really.Copy !req
924. All right, Ace?
Thanks, pal.Copy !req
925. You took your boots off?
You put your feet on the table?Copy !req
926. You shit-kickin`,
stinky-horse-manure-smellin`
motherfucker, you!Copy !req
927. You fuck me up over there,
I`ll stick you in the desert.Copy !req
928. - Go over and apologize.
- Nicky, I`m sorry.Copy !req
929. ÷ You`re dear to me
Yes, sirree ÷Copy !req
930. You know,
Ace could be a very touchy guy.Copy !req
931. Especially when
he got bigger in town.Copy !req
932. Like when he hired
that Jonathan and David
and their tigers away from the Palace...Copy !req
933. by building them a new stage
and giving them a Rolls-Royce.Copy !req
934. But I`ll tell you, he knew
how to bring in the crowds.Copy !req
935. He knew all
the fuckin` angles.Copy !req
936. He brought over the whole
"Femme Fatale" show from Paris...Copy !req
937. but he forgot how lazy them
European dancing broads can get.Copy !req
938. He had to weigh `em in
once a week to make sure
they didn`t blow up like balloons.Copy !req
939. She's still eight pounds over.Copy !req
940. - What`s the reason for this?
- Mr. Rothstein, sir.Copy !req
941. Never mind the "sir."
Why is she eight pounds over?Copy !req
942. I`m trying to use respect.Copy !req
943. Mr. Rothstein is good enough for you.Copy !req
944. Well, sometimes when you put
that pressure point on them—Copy !req
945. All you do is give me answers.
Just give me the right answer.Copy !req
946. I guess she`s frightened. If she doesn`t
lose weight she may get fired.Copy !req
947. That`s right, she will get fired.
Send her back to Paris—Copy !req
948. - It`s been our policy—
- Just stop everything!Copy !req
949. - This woman`s an institution.
- That`s the problem. She's lazy.Copy !req
950. Hey,
I gotta give the guy credit.Copy !req
951. I mean, he does
the most obvious thing.Copy !req
952. This is the only town in the country
where a bookie joint is legit.Copy !req
953. So why not take advantage, right?Copy !req
954. So, he took bookie joints
off the street...Copy !req
955. and then opened them up
inside the casino.Copy !req
956. Within a few years
by doing all of this...Copy !req
957. he had every casino on the strip
trying to copy off of him.Copy !req
958. Between my innovations...Copy !req
959. ÷ Look like they`re taking
some cat to jail ÷Copy !req
960. and Nicky`s dedication
to his job...Copy !req
961. ÷ Steamboats are comin` and
they`re splashing and goin` ÷Copy !req
962. I soon had the best
operation on the strip.Copy !req
963. ÷ Moon is shinin`
on friends below ÷Copy !req
964. You gotta watch yourself.
There`s a lot of heat on you already.Copy !req
965. Why?
Somebody`s complainin`?Copy !req
966. I`m hearing things
from security.Copy !req
967. The sheriff`s lookin`
to put you in the Black Book.Copy !req
968. That Black Book
is a bunch of bullshit.Copy !req
969. They got two names
from the whole country...Copy !req
970. and one of `em
is still Al Capone.Copy !req
971. if they put you in that book,
you're gonna be in trouble.Copy !req
972. You will not be able
to walk into a casino.Copy !req
973. I`m trying to make a living,
that`s all.Copy !req
974. I`m just tellin` you.
Don`t say I didn`t warn you.Copy !req
975. All right.Copy !req
976. Mrs. Rothstein,
straight ahead. Very nice.Copy !req
977. Thank you.Copy !req
978. For his hard work
and dedication...Copy !req
979. and the new life blood
he has instilled in Las Vegas...Copy !req
980. Sam has established himself
as an indispensable member...Copy !req
981. of the gaming community.Copy !req
982. As the head of the
Tangiers Gaming Corporation...Copy !req
983. it`s my pleasure
to welcome Sam Rothstein...Copy !req
984. to the Vegas Valley
Country Club.Copy !req
985. Back home, they would`ve put me
in jail for what I`m doing.Copy !req
986. But out here,
they`re giving me awards.Copy !req
987. It is with great pleasure that I accept
this certificate of appreciation...Copy !req
988. for charitable donations
to greater Las Vegas.Copy !req
989. Congratulations, sweetheart.Copy !req
990. Sam raised more than
we`ve ever raised before.Copy !req
991. But my greatest pleasure was watching
my wife, Ginger, work the room.Copy !req
992. - They all loved her.
How could you not love her?Copy !req
993. She could be the most
charming woman you ever saw.Copy !req
994. People loved
to be around her.Copy !req
995. You`ve got to bring Amy
to Sasha`s birthday party.Copy !req
996. We`d love to have you there.Copy !req
997. - Yes, okay.
- Great.Copy !req
998. She made everybody feel good.Copy !req
999. ÷ That`s Stella by starlight ÷Copy !req
1000. Congratulations, Sam.Copy !req
1001. Oh, thanks.Copy !req
1002. - Hello, Mrs. Rothstein. How are you?
- Hi.Copy !req
1003. You`re one of the most
gorgeous women I`ve ever seen.Copy !req
1004. You`re a lucky man,
Mr. Rothstein.Copy !req
1005. Thank you.
Thanks for that compliment.Copy !req
1006. He was a young kid
from the casino.Copy !req
1007. Nice kid.
Bright boy.Copy !req
1008. What balls on this fuckin` kid!
The next day I fired him.Copy !req
1009. Ginger had that effect on people.
I think she even encouraged them.Copy !req
1010. Do you wanna see this one?
Ahhhh!Copy !req
1011. Daddy gave me all this jewelry
because he loves me so much.Copy !req
1012. - But as much as they loved her...
- Oh, fabulous!Copy !req
1013. they didn`t know
what really moved her.Copy !req
1014. Look at this. Look at this.
Daddy gave me this—Copy !req
1015. And with Ginger happy, I was able
to concentrate on what I knew best.Copy !req
1016. Loose machines are
right back over there.Copy !req
1017. What are they doin` back there?
You can`t even see `em there.Copy !req
1018. - Okay, I`ll—
- What about the progressives
with the high jackpots?Copy !req
1019. - Well—
- These are our best machines.
They bring all the action.Copy !req
1020. - No wonder the drop is off.
- Yeah, okay.Copy !req
1021. - The action is in the front.
Bring `em up front.
- All right, I will.Copy !req
1022. Listen to me very carefully. There are
three ways of doing things around here:Copy !req
1023. the right way, the wrong way
and the way that I do it.Copy !req
1024. - You understand?
- I do understand that.
I`ll get right on it.Copy !req
1025. - And thank you.
- Don`t thank me. Just do it.Copy !req
1026. You`re the slots manager.
I shouldn`t have to tell you this.Copy !req
1027. Dang, you are right,
Mr. Rothstein. I am so sorry.Copy !req
1028. So I ended up working—
what, 18-hour days.Copy !req
1029. Ginger was the one who wound up
enjoying the best of Vegas.Copy !req
1030. Come with me, please.
I have a better table for you.Copy !req
1031. What did you say to that
fucking jerk, anyway?Copy !req
1032. I told him I was
Mrs. Sam Rothstein.Copy !req
1033. Well, you might
as well get something out of it.Copy !req
1034. Well, it wasn`t long...Copy !req
1035. before what I was afraid
was gonna happen happened.Copy !req
1036. Nicky managed to get himself banned
from every casino in Las Vegas.Copy !req
1037. And from then on,
I couldn`t be seen talking
to him anywhere in Vegas or near it.Copy !req
1038. What the fuck is that
supposed to mean?Copy !req
1039. "He will be ejected from
any casino in Las Vegas.Copy !req
1040. And the casinos can be fined
as much as $100,000...Copy !req
1041. every time he shows up."Copy !req
1042. - You believe this shit?
- Yeah, I believe it. You got banned.Copy !req
1043. "Because of notorious
and unsavory reputation—"Copy !req
1044. Motherfucker!Copy !req
1045. ls there any way
around this?Copy !req
1046. No, there`s no way.Copy !req
1047. Let`s say, for instance...Copy !req
1048. I wanna go in a restaurant,
which happens to be in the casino...Copy !req
1049. to get one of those
sandwiches I like?Copy !req
1050. Forget it. You can`t even
set foot in the parking lot.Copy !req
1051. That`s how serious it is.Copy !req
1052. In other words,
I`m fucked?Copy !req
1053. In so many words, yes.Copy !req
1054. It just didn`t sink into his head
about the Black Book and what it meant.Copy !req
1055. Not being able to go
into a casino is one thing...Copy !req
1056. but being in this book
etched your name into the brains
of every cop and FBI agent.Copy !req
1057. I mean, you're listed in there
with Al Capone. But Nicky didn`t care.Copy !req
1058. I gotta do something.
They ain`t gettin` rid of me.Copy !req
1059. They`re not gettin` rid of me.
I`m stayin` here.Copy !req
1060. Fuck `em. Fuck `em.Copy !req
1061. So, once they pulled that shit...Copy !req
1062. I started doin` my own things
nobody ever thought of doin`.Copy !req
1063. To keep an eye on things,
I brought in my kid brother,
Dominick, and some desperados...Copy !req
1064. and started knockin` over
high-rollers, casino bosses...Copy !req
1065. bookmakers—
anybody right here in town.Copy !req
1066. I had a good fuckin` crew goin`
for me, I`ll tell you that.Copy !req
1067. I had Sal Fusco,
a great second-story guy.Copy !req
1068. Jack Hardy. He worked for a safe company
before he did a six-year bit.Copy !req
1069. And then there was Bernie Blue.
This guy can bypass any alarm for me.Copy !req
1070. It was like old times.Copy !req
1071. And I opened up my own jewelry
store too, the "Gold Rush."Copy !req
1072. Sometimes I used to go along
on a heist, just for the fun of it.Copy !req
1073. But I didn`t like the people
I was rippin` off looking at me...Copy !req
1074. so I used to turn
their fuckin` pictures around.Copy !req
1075. - What`s takin` so long?
- This is a motherfucker!Copy !req
1076. - It`s working.
- Learn how to open these things
so you don`t have to take `em.Copy !req
1077. Some of these stones
got a lot of niggers in them.Copy !req
1078. Tell Pepe if he`s
switching stones on us,
he better take a camel back to Nigeria.Copy !req
1079. - Yeah?Copy !req
1080. - They`re in Penthouse K.
- Check in alone?Copy !req
1081. - They checked in alone.
- Are they out now?Copy !req
1082. - Yes. Don`t worry.
- All right. Thanks.Copy !req
1083. He had tipsters
all over town. Bellmen.Copy !req
1084. - But you got to hurry.
- Yeah, okay.Copy !req
1085. - Valet parkers.
- They`re just checking in now.Copy !req
1086. Okay, I`ll tell him.Copy !req
1087. - Pit bosses.
- Room 1230 at the Scirocco.Copy !req
1088. - 1230. Right.
- Secretaries.Copy !req
1089. - Mint condition coins.
- Mint condition? All right.Copy !req
1090. And they all got
a piece of the score.Copy !req
1091. Car`s coming.Copy !req
1092. ÷÷Copy !req
1093. They were very careful.Copy !req
1094. They always bypassed
the alarms, or else...Copy !req
1095. if not, they`d drill
enough holes to knock
through the walls with a sledgehammer.Copy !req
1096. Nicky was grabbing
everything he could.Copy !req
1097. Nobody out there was expecting
a guy like him.Copy !req
1098. For Nicky, Las Vegas
was the fucking wild west.Copy !req
1099. I just got a shipment
of diamonds from lsrael.Copy !req
1100. What the fuck they expect
from me? I had to earn, didn`t I?Copy !req
1101. You know, this diamond
has flaws in it.Copy !req
1102. - There`s no flaws.
- I`m doing this for 25 years.Copy !req
1103. You better clean your loupe,
because there`s no flaws.Copy !req
1104. Whenever we got local merch...Copy !req
1105. we`d usually send it
to Palm Springs or Arizona, L.A.Copy !req
1106. I had a couple of sand niggers
out there. You know, Arabs.Copy !req
1107. What, are you gonna have
a fucking meeting here?Copy !req
1108. I know his language.Copy !req
1109. Forty thousand dollars.
The whole package.Copy !req
1110. Twenty thousand.
That`s my final offer.Copy !req
1111. He suddenly talks English. Let`s talk
Turkey here. Twenty-five thousand.Copy !req
1112. I actually turned
my bedroom into a bank vault...Copy !req
1113. where I kept
the choice stuff.Copy !req
1114. I couldn`t leave it
at the Gold Rush...Copy !req
1115. in case we got raided
by the cops...Copy !req
1116. or if my crew got cute.Copy !req
1117. I had the only key.
Jennifer didn`t give a fuck.Copy !req
1118. She used to fall asleep
on the couch watching TV.Copy !req
1119. This stuff was all mine.
I didn`t send any of this back home.Copy !req
1120. Actually, I couldn`t, because I wasn`t
even supposed to be doin` it.Copy !req
1121. The bosses were making so much
fucking money with the casinos...Copy !req
1122. that they didn`t want anybody
makin` any waves for them.Copy !req
1123. You gave all the guys
in your crew a piece of that?Copy !req
1124. - I took care of everybody.
- Yeah?Copy !req
1125. That`s why there was
no real organized street stuff
in Vegas before I came here.Copy !req
1126. But how much cash
could I bury in my closet?Copy !req
1127. You have to understand,
and I`m sure you do...Copy !req
1128. that in a venture
of this kind...Copy !req
1129. you have to be prepared
to take some kind of loss.Copy !req
1130. So I put some of the money
into legitimate deals
with Charlie Clark, Ace`s banker.Copy !req
1131. You will try to push it through,
won`t you, Mr. Clark?Copy !req
1132. - Yes.
- I`m giving you 50,000 cash.Copy !req
1133. Then I put some more money into
legitimate places, like my restaurant.Copy !req
1134. - Is that the last one?
- Yeah.Copy !req
1135. I had my kid brother,
Dominick, run it for me.Copy !req
1136. Fuckers.Copy !req
1137. - Here you go, guys.
- All right.Copy !req
1138. - Thanks a lot.
- Yeah. Enjoy. Have a good time.Copy !req
1139. Choke on it, motherfucker.Copy !req
1140. - Hey, Dom.
- How ya doin`?Copy !req
1141. Yeah, Nicky loved restaurants.
He was a real restaurant buff.Copy !req
1142. And over the years,
he always made money with it.Copy !req
1143. In Vegas, he had the Leaning Tower.
It was a very popular spot.Copy !req
1144. He had politicians, showgirls and movie
stars hanging out all over the place.Copy !req
1145. That show over at the Flamingo
gets better and better.Copy !req
1146. By the way, Sammy said, whenever
you have a minute, give him a call.Copy !req
1147. - Made a messenger out of you too, huh?
- Anything for a buck.Copy !req
1148. - He does it to everybody.
Enjoy your dinner.
- Thanks.Copy !req
1149. But I gotta tell you, the thing Nicky
liked most was the showgirls, naturally.Copy !req
1150. I mean, to them,
Nicky was the movie star.Copy !req
1151. - You walk past me?
- Hey, this is Shelly.Copy !req
1152. - Hey, Shelly. How are you?
- Hi.Copy !req
1153. - And this is Stacy.
- Stacy.Copy !req
1154. - This is Nick. Wanna have dinner?
- Pleasure.Copy !req
1155. Let`s check the kitchen first.
Excuse us one second.Copy !req
1156. Come on. I`ll show you.
I fly stuff in fresh every day.Copy !req
1157. I get bread from back home.
I get fish from California.Copy !req
1158. And you can always tell a great kitchen
like ours because of the milk-fed veal.Copy !req
1159. That`s the secret.
See, milk-fed veal is pure white.Copy !req
1160. Out here they got that pink veal.
Slide over, honey.Copy !req
1161. Now, pink veal, you can pound
that shit for two days.Copy !req
1162. It`ll never, ever get tender.
You know what I mean?Copy !req
1163. I left here with the money.
Got muscled on the street.Copy !req
1164. A couple guys, I owe them.
So I gave them the money.Copy !req
1165. - That`s what I did.
- Yeah?Copy !req
1166. - Yeah.
- You call yourself a man?Copy !req
1167. You know you're a lyin` lowlife,
motherfuckin` gamblin` degenerate prick?Copy !req
1168. You know that`s what you are?
Two small kids at home.Copy !req
1169. I gave you money to pay
the fuckin` rent...Copy !req
1170. and buy groceries,
put the heat on.Copy !req
1171. Your wife called Frankie and
told him the fuckin` heat`s off.Copy !req
1172. And you didn`t gamble
that fuckin` money?Copy !req
1173. - No? You didn`t?
- I didn`t—Copy !req
1174. Don`t fuck with me, Al!
Don`t make a fuck outta me.Copy !req
1175. You wanna embarrass me and make
a fool outta me? You didn`t gamble?Copy !req
1176. Tell me you gambled
the fuckin` money...Copy !req
1177. I`ll give you the fuckin` money
to put the fuckin` heat on!Copy !req
1178. Did you gamble? Huh?Copy !req
1179. Fuckin` degenerate.Copy !req
1180. Fuckin` kids at home.Copy !req
1181. Here. Get the fuck outta here.Copy !req
1182. - Thanks, Nick.
- Yeah, thanks.Copy !req
1183. Let me find out you fucked up.
I`ll leave you where I find you.Copy !req
1184. How many of these
you gonna eat?Copy !req
1185. - Two.
- Two?Copy !req
1186. But around 6:30 in the morning,
when he finished his day...Copy !req
1187. no matter where he was
or what he was doing...Copy !req
1188. he always went home to make breakfast
for his son, Nicky boy.Copy !req
1189. I know you like this.
A little butter, right?Copy !req
1190. - Not a lot. You know why, right?
- Yeah.Copy !req
1191. - Why?
- `Cause it clogs up your heart.Copy !req
1192. What a smart kid you are.
Okay, eat.Copy !req
1193. Every couple of weeks,
I used to send Marino...Copy !req
1194. back to the bosses
with a piece of what I made.Copy !req
1195. Not a bit piece,
but what did they know?Copy !req
1196. They were 1,500 miles away, and I don`t
know anybody who can see that far.Copy !req
1197. Their drop was
a truck stop garage...Copy !req
1198. where Remo and the guys used
to hang out and count their millions.Copy !req
1199. - Remo.
- Hey, Frankie.Copy !req
1200. The cops knew,
but they didn`t give a fuck.Copy !req
1201. Nicky sends
his warmest regards.Copy !req
1202. I knew how
to keep the bosses happy.Copy !req
1203. Whenever they gave me
little jobs to do...Copy !req
1204. I would carry things out
to a "T."Copy !req
1205. Like the time Tony Dogs,
who`s supposed to be
the new maniac tough guy in town...Copy !req
1206. shot up one of Remo`s bars.Copy !req
1207. Here`s a fuckin` guy
kills two of Remo`s guys...Copy !req
1208. and a poor fuckin` waitress who was just
workin` on her night off, of all things.Copy !req
1209. I mean, this guy`s just beggin`
to be made an example of.Copy !req
1210. Frankie, I want the names
of all the other people he had with him.Copy !req
1211. And I don`t care what you have
to do to `em to get `em, understand?Copy !req
1212. - I`ll take care of it, Remo.
- And mow `em down.Copy !req
1213. To be truthful with you,
I had to admire this guy.Copy !req
1214. He was one of the toughest
lrishmen I ever met.Copy !req
1215. - This son of a bitch was tough.Copy !req
1216. For two days and two fuckin` nights
we beat the shit outta this guy.Copy !req
1217. We even stuck ice picks
in his balls.Copy !req
1218. - Better give me a name soon,
or I`m gonna give him yours, Frank.
- Thanks a lot.Copy !req
1219. - But he never talked.
- I know you would`ve ratted by now.Copy !req
1220. In the end, I had to put
his fuckin` head in a vise.Copy !req
1221. Dogs, Dogs,
can you hear me, Dogs?Copy !req
1222. Listen to me, Anthony.
I got your head in a vise.Copy !req
1223. I`ll squash your fuckin` head like a
grapefruit if you don`t give me a name.Copy !req
1224. Don`t make me have to do this.
Please. Come on!Copy !req
1225. Don`t make me be a bad guy.
Come on.Copy !req
1226. Fuck you!Copy !req
1227. This motherfucker. You believe this?
Two fuckin` days and nights.Copy !req
1228. Fuck me? Fuck me?
You motherfucker!Copy !req
1229. Fuck my mother?
Is that what you're tellin` me?Copy !req
1230. - You motherfucker, you! Huh?Copy !req
1231. - Oh, God!
- Give me the fuckin` name!Copy !req
1232. Charlie M.Copy !req
1233. - Charlie M.?
- Charlie M.Copy !req
1234. You make me pop your
fuckin` eye outta your head...Copy !req
1235. to protect that piece of shit,
Charlie M.?Copy !req
1236. You dumb motherfucker!Copy !req
1237. Kill me, you fuck!
Kill me!Copy !req
1238. You motherfucker, you!Copy !req
1239. Frankie, do him
a fuckin` favor.Copy !req
1240. The word got around
that finally...Copy !req
1241. there was a real
gangster in town.Copy !req
1242. Nicky was the new boss
of Las Vegas.Copy !req
1243. Charlie M.Copy !req
1244. Four reels, sevens,
across three $15,000 jackpots.Copy !req
1245. Do you have any idea
what the odds are?Copy !req
1246. It`s gotta be
in the millions, maybe more.Copy !req
1247. Three fuckin` jackpots in 20 minutes!
Why didn`t you call me?Copy !req
1248. It happened so quick. Three guys won.
I didn`t have a chance.Copy !req
1249. - You didn`t see the scam?
- There`s no way to determine that.Copy !req
1250. Yes, there is.
They won!Copy !req
1251. It`s a casino.
People gotta win sometimes.Copy !req
1252. Ward, you're pissing me off.
Now you're insulting my intelligence.Copy !req
1253. You know goddamn well somebody had
to get into those machines
and set those fuckin` reels.Copy !req
1254. The probability on one machine
is a million and a half to one.Copy !req
1255. On three machines in a row,
it`s in the billions.Copy !req
1256. What`s the matter with you?Copy !req
1257. Didn`t you see you were being set up
on the second win?Copy !req
1258. I think you're overreacting.Copy !req
1259. Listen, you fuckin` yokel. I`ve been
carrying your ass ever since I got here.Copy !req
1260. - Get your ass outta here.
- You`re firing me?Copy !req
1261. I`m firing you.
No, I`m not firing—Copy !req
1262. - You might regret this.
- I`ll regret it if I keep you.Copy !req
1263. This is not the way
to treat people.Copy !req
1264. if you didn`t know,
you're too fuckin` dumb.Copy !req
1265. if you did know,
you were in on it.Copy !req
1266. Either way, you're out.
Get out. Come on. Let`s go.Copy !req
1267. The guy`s history
as far as I`m concerned.Copy !req
1268. But you can`t fire him. His
brother-in-law is County Commissioner.Copy !req
1269. Everybody with cowboy boots is
a fuckin` county commissioner
or related to a commissioner.Copy !req
1270. This is his state.
His uncle`s chief judge.Copy !req
1271. His brother-in-law runs
the county commission.Copy !req
1272. You`re in the finances,
you're upstairs.Copy !req
1273. But you are not on the floor.
You don`t see what`s going on.Copy !req
1274. I`ve got thousands of players.
I`ve got 500 dealers.Copy !req
1275. They`re all looking
to rob me blind 24 hours a day.Copy !req
1276. I have to let them know I`m watching
all the details all the time.Copy !req
1277. There is not one single thing
I will not catch.Copy !req
1278. - Look at yours. Look at that.
- Huh?Copy !req
1279. Look at this.
There`s nothing.Copy !req
1280. Look how many blueberries
your muffin has.Copy !req
1281. What are you talking about?Copy !req
1282. if you don`t do it yourself,
it never gets done.Copy !req
1283. - Where are you going?
- ÷ How long can this go on ÷Copy !req
1284. From now on, I want you to put an equal
amount of blueberries in each muffin.Copy !req
1285. An equal amount of blueberries
in each muffin.Copy !req
1286. Do you know how long
that`s going to take?Copy !req
1287. I don`t care how long it takes.
Put an equal amount in each muffin.Copy !req
1288. Just a little.
That a girl.Copy !req
1289. Oh, boy, look.
You wanna go to Mommy?Copy !req
1290. Wanna come to Mommy?
It`s all right, sweetheart.Copy !req
1291. I need to talk to you.
I need some money.Copy !req
1292. - What do you need?
- Got her?Copy !req
1293. Well, I need a lot.
I need more than usual.Copy !req
1294. Why don`t you take it
out of your account?Copy !req
1295. I would, you know, Sam,
it`s just that—Copy !req
1296. Well, I need more than that.
I need $25,000.Copy !req
1297. Twenty-five thousand?
For yourself?Copy !req
1298. - Yeah.
- Why do you need that much?Copy !req
1299. What`s the difference?
I just need it.Copy !req
1300. Well, I gotta ask you.
That`s a lot of money.Copy !req
1301. You`re not asking
for a box of popcorn.Copy !req
1302. We don`t have to turn this
into a big deal.Copy !req
1303. Okay? We don`t have
to have a fight.Copy !req
1304. It`s important to me.
Just something I wanted to do.Copy !req
1305. Who`s fighting?
I mean, tell me what it`s for.Copy !req
1306. Why can`t you tell me
what it`s for? Huh?Copy !req
1307. Well, you know what?
Now I want you to tell me.Copy !req
1308. My wife comes to me and asks me
for 25,000. What do you want, a coat?Copy !req
1309. - No.
- if you want a coat, you got it.Copy !req
1310. It`s not the money.
It`s just, why do you want it?
Am I not entitled to ask that?Copy !req
1311. Sam, I`ve been independent
my whole life. I never had
to ask anybody for anything.Copy !req
1312. - Now you're making me beg.
- What are you talking about?Copy !req
1313. And you're embarrassing me.
Why do you want to make me feel so bad?Copy !req
1314. You`re asking me for 25,000.
I`m not out to make you feel bad.Copy !req
1315. I want to just
be able to trust you.Copy !req
1316. You know,
it`s about trust.Copy !req
1317. I have to be able
to trust you with my life.Copy !req
1318. Do you understand?Copy !req
1319. Can I trust you?Copy !req
1320. Can I trust you?Copy !req
1321. Can I trust you?
Answer me. Can I trust you?Copy !req
1322. You can trust me.Copy !req
1323. Good. So then you could tell me
what the money is for.Copy !req
1324. ÷ You`ve got to ÷Copy !req
1325. ÷ Give a little ÷Copy !req
1326. ÷ Take a little ÷Copy !req
1327. ÷ And let your poor heart ÷Copy !req
1328. ÷ Break a little ÷Copy !req
1329. Yeah, she`s leaving the bank now.Copy !req
1330. All right,
I`m gonna follow her.Copy !req
1331. What is that?Copy !req
1332. I know that look.
What does that look mean?Copy !req
1333. It means I got the money.Copy !req
1334. ÷ You`ve got to ÷Copy !req
1335. - ÷ Give a little ÷
- Yes,
you're way up on top now.Copy !req
1336. ÷ Take a little ÷÷Copy !req
1337. How are you doin`, Les?
It`s Lester, right?Copy !req
1338. Sam.Copy !req
1339. From my recollection,
aren`t you the card shark...Copy !req
1340. the golf hustler,
the pimp from Beverly Hills?Copy !req
1341. if I`m wrong,
please correct me.Copy !req
1342. `Cause I never knew you
to be a heist man.Copy !req
1343. But if you are,
you know what?Copy !req
1344. Here, take mine too.Copy !req
1345. Go ahead. Take it.
`Cause you already have hers.Copy !req
1346. She's my wife.
Look at me.Copy !req
1347. You did know that, didn`t you?
You knew that she`s my wife?Copy !req
1348. - Hey, look at me.
- Yeah, I know that.Copy !req
1349. You know, yeah?Copy !req
1350. But if you ever
come back again, ever...Copy !req
1351. to take her money,
next time bring a pistol.Copy !req
1352. That way
you got a chance.Copy !req
1353. Be a man.
Don`t be a fucking pimp.Copy !req
1354. Now, you wanna do me a favor?
Get outta here.Copy !req
1355. I wanna be alone with my wife.
Get up and get outta here.Copy !req
1356. - And you want to be free.
- ÷ Take a little ÷Copy !req
1357. Why, you feel
that you are too good...Copy !req
1358. much too good
for a nobody like me.Copy !req
1359. - Fuckin` piece of shit.
- That`s fuckin` bullshit.Copy !req
1360. - ÷ That`s the story ÷
- Well, darling, I guess it`s best...Copy !req
1361. - ÷ That`s the glory of love ÷
- that we should part.Copy !req
1362. Remember when you called him
that night and said good-bye?Copy !req
1363. He didn`t say, "Don`t get married.
I`ll be right down."Copy !req
1364. - He didn`t say that to you, did he?
- No, he didn`t.Copy !req
1365. No. Lnstead, what did he say?Copy !req
1366. "Fuck him. Take him
for everything he`s got."Copy !req
1367. Come here.
I want to show you something.Copy !req
1368. - ÷ That`s the story ÷
- The second letter came right
after I gave you your start.Copy !req
1369. - No! No! No!Copy !req
1370. No! Make `em stop it!Copy !req
1371. - No! No!Copy !req
1372. It`s not his fault!
It`s my fault!Copy !req
1373. No!Copy !req
1374. - Fuck! Fuck!
- Piece of shit.Copy !req
1375. Do it yourself,
you chickenshit cocksucker!Copy !req
1376. He`s such a prick!Copy !req
1377. He had some guy
from the hotel beat him up.Copy !req
1378. He didn`t want
to do it himself.Copy !req
1379. Oh, no, he didn`t want
to get his own hands dirty.Copy !req
1380. So why did he
have to do that, huh?Copy !req
1381. Tell me.Copy !req
1382. - I know it wasn`t a nice thing to do—
- No shit.Copy !req
1383. You gotta understand it. He doesn`t know
if this guy is shaking you down—Copy !req
1384. No. No. I told him all about this guy
before we ever got married.Copy !req
1385. - This is no fucking surprise.
- Oh, you did? I didn`t know that.Copy !req
1386. He`s just a friend of mine
I was trying to help. So what?Copy !req
1387. You know, the first time
I ever saw you guys together...Copy !req
1388. I never saw him so happy.Copy !req
1389. I mean, I know he`s
a crazy Jew fuck and everything...Copy !req
1390. but I never seen him act
like that with anybody else.Copy !req
1391. I think he`s crazy about you.
I mean, he really loves you.Copy !req
1392. Come on. I went into this
with my eyes open, you know.Copy !req
1393. I knew the bottom
could drop out at any time.Copy !req
1394. You don`t think I`m gonna
go into a situation like this...Copy !req
1395. if I don`t think I`m gonna
get covered on the back end.Copy !req
1396. - Sure, I can see that.
- Right?Copy !req
1397. So I put aside some jewelry for me.
A lot of jewelry.Copy !req
1398. You mean like a lot
of expensive jewelry? About how much?Copy !req
1399. You want to steal it?Copy !req
1400. No. I`m just curious.
I was wondering...Copy !req
1401. how much he would put
into a thing like that.Copy !req
1402. I`m told it`s worth
about a million dollars, maybe more.Copy !req
1403. Well, there you go.
What does that tell you?Copy !req
1404. A million dollars in jewelry.Copy !req
1405. Does that tell you
the guy is crazy about you?Copy !req
1406. I should`ve never married him.
He`s a Gemini.Copy !req
1407. Triple Gemini. Duality.Copy !req
1408. Gemini is the snake, you know.
You can`t trust a snake.Copy !req
1409. I mean it.Copy !req
1410. I know what you mean.
Listen, Ginger.Copy !req
1411. You know, this is probably not—
I don`t have the answers anyway.Copy !req
1412. - This is probably not
what you want to hear...
- I do.Copy !req
1413. `cause you're a little upset,
and I understand that.Copy !req
1414. But I think you should try
to make the best of it now.
Go slow. See what happens.Copy !req
1415. He could`ve killed him!
Okay? He could`ve killed him.
He didn`t have to hit him.Copy !req
1416. It`s not like
I`m sleeping with the guy.Copy !req
1417. He makes me sneak around to see
my own friends. What is that all about?Copy !req
1418. I guess it`s `cause he loves
you so much, he`s jealous and worried.Copy !req
1419. He gives a fuck what I do.Copy !req
1420. Look, I`ll try to find out
what the hell is going on.Copy !req
1421. - When I see him, I`ll talk to him.
- Okay.Copy !req
1422. - All right?
- Yeah.Copy !req
1423. Thanks. Thanks
for putting up with me.Copy !req
1424. Take it easy with this shit.
This can only make matters worse.Copy !req
1425. You`re a beautiful girl. I`ve seen a lot
of girls get shot to hell from this.Copy !req
1426. You`re so nice.Copy !req
1427. Come on, now. I don`t
wanna see you unhappy.Copy !req
1428. - ÷ These eyes before us ÷
- Thanks.Copy !req
1429. ÷ Just what the truth is ÷Copy !req
1430. - Thank you.
- It`s all right.Copy !req
1431. ÷ I can`t say anymore ÷Copy !req
1432. ÷ `Cause I love you ÷Copy !req
1433. ÷ Yes, I love you— ÷÷Copy !req
1434. Mr. Rothstein, County Commissioner
Pat Webb is here to see you.Copy !req
1435. - Give me a minute.
- Okay. Just a minute.Copy !req
1436. Mr. Webb, can I
get you anything?Copy !req
1437. Uh, no. No, thank you,
little lady.Copy !req
1438. Okay, send him in.
Then call me four minutes after.Copy !req
1439. - Mr. Rothstein, I`m Pat Webb.
- How do you do?Copy !req
1440. - Hey, it is a pleasure.
- I heard a lot about you.Copy !req
1441. Oh, thank you, sir.
Hey, house is doin` well.Copy !req
1442. Hey, all that money
is rollin` in.Copy !req
1443. I appreciate you takin` the time
to see a poor civil servant.Copy !req
1444. - Why don`t you have a seat, hmm?
- Oh, thank you, sir.Copy !req
1445. I come here personally
to kind of smooth over...Copy !req
1446. any fracas
about a certain matter.Copy !req
1447. See, uh, maybe
you didn`t know it...Copy !req
1448. but Don Ward is a very
well-liked man in this town.Copy !req
1449. He`s got lots of friends.
Nice family and their money
go back many, many years.Copy !req
1450. Now friends vote.
Family and money votes.Copy !req
1451. That`s important
to me and you.Copy !req
1452. And if you`ll think about
our little problem along them lines—Copy !req
1453. and you`ll forgive me
for sayin` it—Copy !req
1454. maybe he did not
deserve to be fired.Copy !req
1455. I`m sorry, but he knew
about our getting hit...Copy !req
1456. on three big machines in a row,
and he did nothing about it.Copy !req
1457. That means, either he was in on it or he
was too dumb to see what was goin` on.Copy !req
1458. Either way, I cannot have
a man like that working here.Copy !req
1459. Before we point the dirty
end of the stick at old Don...Copy !req
1460. we better be sure
we can prove them charges.Copy !req
1461. Believe me, if I could prove it,
he would be under arrest.Copy !req
1462. Are, uh—Copy !req
1463. Are we certain that you want
the Gaming Control Board...Copy !req
1464. eyeballing your record and
your gangster pals like Nicky Santoro.Copy !req
1465. I think you're way out of line
talking to me like that.Copy !req
1466. What you're saying is libelous,
and you're in no position
to challenge my expertise.Copy !req
1467. I went way out of my way
to be very helpful to that kid.Copy !req
1468. He`s weak. He`s incompetent.
He jeopardizes the whole place.Copy !req
1469. There`s not much more
I can do for him.Copy !req
1470. You have got me there.Copy !req
1471. Old Don is as useless
as tits on a boar.Copy !req
1472. But he is my brother-in-law...Copy !req
1473. and I would look on it
as a personal favor...Copy !req
1474. if you`d think some more
on hirin` him back.Copy !req
1475. I can`t do that.Copy !req
1476. I appreciate the fact
that he`s your brother-in-law...Copy !req
1477. and I do want to help you
and I like to do favors.Copy !req
1478. I know who you are,
but I cannot do that.Copy !req
1479. Well, could there be
any position...Copy !req
1480. farther down the trough?Copy !req
1481. I`m sorry.
I can`t do anything.Copy !req
1482. He`s too incompetent, and the bottom
line is, he cannot be trusted.Copy !req
1483. Okay. Thanks.Copy !req
1484. Well... you know,
that`s it. I`m sorry.Copy !req
1485. Mr. Rothstein, your people
never will understand...Copy !req
1486. the way it works out here.Copy !req
1487. You`re all just our guests.Copy !req
1488. But you act
like you're at home.Copy !req
1489. Let me tell you something, partner.
You ain`t home.Copy !req
1490. But that`s where we`re gonna send you
if it harelips the governor.Copy !req
1491. - Thank you for your time.
- No problem.Copy !req
1492. - Sorry.
- You bet.Copy !req
1493. What happened to my pills?Copy !req
1494. Huh?Copy !req
1495. lsn`t it bad enough you're drinking
too much? You`re taking my pills too?Copy !req
1496. I didn`t take your pills.Copy !req
1497. Look, for my ulcer,
I take a half a one of these.Copy !req
1498. And that`s when I have
extreme pain.Copy !req
1499. I had a three-month supply.
What did you do with `em?Copy !req
1500. You didn`t have to beat him up.Copy !req
1501. What?Copy !req
1502. I was just trying to help him.Copy !req
1503. Like I`m sleeping with the guy.Copy !req
1504. Yeah, how do I know?Copy !req
1505. You can`t make me stop
caring about people.Copy !req
1506. What? What?Copy !req
1507. I said,
you can`t make me...Copy !req
1508. stop caring about people.Copy !req
1509. Listen... Ginger...Copy !req
1510. I`m trying to make the best
of everything here, you know?Copy !req
1511. I mean, you're my wife,
for Christ`s sakes.Copy !req
1512. I mean, people look up
to you in this town.Copy !req
1513. You know what, Ace?
I don`t give a shit!Copy !req
1514. I`m gettin` out of here.
I am.Copy !req
1515. Come over here.
You gotta get hold of yourself.Copy !req
1516. - Okay. Okay.
- if not for me, at least for Amy.Copy !req
1517. Understand? Your drinking`s
gettin` way out of hand.Copy !req
1518. I`m gonna get you into a program.
They got plenty of good ones.Copy !req
1519. - I don`t need one.
- Yes, you do. It`s very discreet.Copy !req
1520. There`s no names
in the papers.Copy !req
1521. That`s all you care about.
You don`t care about me.Copy !req
1522. - Yes, I do.
- No, you don`t.Copy !req
1523. How could you say that?Copy !req
1524. You`re a beautiful woman.
You`re destroying yourself.Copy !req
1525. You don`t need that fuckin`
leech living off you.Copy !req
1526. I know you better
than you know yourself.Copy !req
1527. You`re a tiger.
You`re stronger than I am.Copy !req
1528. When you set your mind
on doing something,
you do it better than anybody.Copy !req
1529. You`re gonna do it.
Okay? You`ll do it.Copy !req
1530. Oh, God.Copy !req
1531. Oh, God.Copy !req
1532. Okay.Copy !req
1533. l`ll try. L`ll try.Copy !req
1534. l`ll try. I will.Copy !req
1535. Don`t be mad at me, okay?Copy !req
1536. I will.Copy !req
1537. No matter what the problems
were outside the count room...Copy !req
1538. it was all worth it.Copy !req
1539. The cash kept rollin` in...Copy !req
1540. and the suitcases
kept comin` and goin`.Copy !req
1541. And let me tell you, the fuckin`
bottom line here is... cash.Copy !req
1542. The only problem was
that after a while...Copy !req
1543. the bosses noticed that the suitcases
were gettin` a little light.Copy !req
1544. Wait a minute.
You mean to tell me...Copy !req
1545. that the money we`re robbing
is being robbed?Copy !req
1546. Somebody`s robbing from us?Copy !req
1547. We go through all this trouble
and somebody`s robbing us?Copy !req
1548. Huh?Copy !req
1549. Like I said, it`s part of the business.
It`s considered leakage.Copy !req
1550. Leakage my balls.
I want the guy who`s robbing us.Copy !req
1551. Even John Nash—
that`s the guy who ran the scam—Copy !req
1552. he knew there wasn`t much
he could do about it.Copy !req
1553. You gotta know that
a guy who helps you steal...Copy !req
1554. even if you take care
of him real well...Copy !req
1555. he`s gonna steal
a little extra for himself.Copy !req
1556. Makes sense, don`t it?Copy !req
1557. Try and make these hardheaded
old greaseballs understand that.Copy !req
1558. What`s the point of skimming if we`re
being skimmed? It defeats the purpose.Copy !req
1559. Huh?Copy !req
1560. They take this money because they`re
my guys, so give `em some leeway.Copy !req
1561. But the bosses
never believed in leeway...Copy !req
1562. so listen to what they do.Copy !req
1563. They put Artie Piscano,
the underboss of K.C...Copy !req
1564. in charge of making sure
nobody skimmed the skim.Copy !req
1565. - What were you doin`?
- I was with my cumma.Copy !req
1566. - What are you doin` with your cumma?
- I gave her a scheff.Copy !req
1567. The only trouble was,
Piscano was a disaster.Copy !req
1568. This guy could fuck up
a cup of coffee.Copy !req
1569. - What you been doin`?
- l`m out there more than l`m here.Copy !req
1570. And little did anybody know
where this would lead.Copy !req
1571. if they did, they`d would`ve
been better off makin` fuckin` novena.Copy !req
1572. You gotta go back there
and talk to that guy.Copy !req
1573. - I never got paid my expenses
for the last trip.
- What expenses?Copy !req
1574. l`m layin` money outta my own pocket,
and I never get anything back.Copy !req
1575. You gotta go back out there.Copy !req
1576. From now on, l`m gonna
start keepin` records.Copy !req
1577. No records, Artie. What are
you gonna do with records, pay taxes?Copy !req
1578. I keep layin` out
my own fuckin` dough.Copy !req
1579. What the hell are
we doin` over here?Copy !req
1580. You`re goin` to Las Vegas
at my expense.Copy !req
1581. Oh, fuck.
I mean, after all—Copy !req
1582. No matter how many novenas
you could make...Copy !req
1583. nothing was gonna stop
what came up next.Copy !req
1584. - I can`t believe you're doing this.
- We made a deal.Copy !req
1585. It turned out Phil Green,
Mr. Lntegrity...Copy !req
1586. had a partner
nobody knew about.Copy !req
1587. And when she showed up
and started demanding money—Copy !req
1588. - Why are you doing this?
- Because you're wrong.Copy !req
1589. - Yes, you are.
- No, I am not wrong.Copy !req
1590. Green tried to stonewall her.Copy !req
1591. I will see to it that you
do not get away with this.Copy !req
1592. So, she sued him in court.Copy !req
1593. The court will now hear the matter
of the plaintiff, Anna Scott...Copy !req
1594. against Tangiers Corporation
and its president, Phil Green.Copy !req
1595. - Oberon on behalf of Mr. Green.
- Logan on behalf of Anna Scott.Copy !req
1596. - Mr. Oberon, you can proceed.
- Thank you, Judge.Copy !req
1597. I believe he was fair,
and l`m delighted with the decision.Copy !req
1598. We got a problem.Copy !req
1599. It didn`t go too well.
Green has to open up the books...Copy !req
1600. has to show how
he got the financing.Copy !req
1601. Hey, that`s not good.Copy !req
1602. She was doin` pretty good
with her lawsuit.Copy !req
1603. But before she could start
countin` her money...Copy !req
1604. the boys back home decided
to settle the case out of court.Copy !req
1605. So they sent me.Copy !req
1606. Can you comment on
the murder of Anna Scott?Copy !req
1607. - What are you talking about?
- She was found
last night shot in the head.Copy !req
1608. Was this just
a real estate partnership?Copy !req
1609. Her lawyer said
you were partners.Copy !req
1610. We were involved in minor
real estate deals many years ago.Copy !req
1611. It was never a partnership.Copy !req
1612. Did you ever hear
of the.22 Caliber Killer?Copy !req
1613. Now, instead of the cops
only looking at Nicky...Copy !req
1614. they started looking
at Green too.Copy !req
1615. And he was supposed to be
our squeaky-clean front man.Copy !req
1616. I had to start giving interviews
to make sure everybody knew...Copy !req
1617. the casino
was on the up-and-up.Copy !req
1618. So how often do you
really fill in for him?Copy !req
1619. Green`s here about
two or three times a month...Copy !req
1620. and he`s busy
with real estate deals.Copy !req
1621. So in Green`s absence,
then, you're the boss?Copy !req
1622. I serve at the pleasure
of the chairman of the board.Copy !req
1623. My responsibilities are
to run the day-to-day operations.Copy !req
1624. So day-to-day, then,
you're the boss?Copy !req
1625. Well, in a sense, you could say
that I am the boss...Copy !req
1626. when Mr. Green is away.Copy !req
1627. You could say that.Copy !req
1628. Hmm, have you read this?Copy !req
1629. About Mr. Rothstein.Copy !req
1630. It says, "The Midwest bookmaker
with mob ties...Copy !req
1631. says that he is the real boss
of the $100 million...Copy !req
1632. Tangiers casino empire. ``Copy !req
1633. Did he really say that?Copy !req
1634. Why, of course he said that.
It`s right here.Copy !req
1635. Has that man even filed
for his license yet?Copy !req
1636. I don`t know.
We have to check the files.Copy !req
1637. Without gettin` your shorts
in a knot, would you do that?Copy !req
1638. And kinda check closely, `cause we may
have to kick a kike`s ass outta town.Copy !req
1639. Thank you.Copy !req
1640. A Gaming Control Board
investigation...Copy !req
1641. of Tangiers executive
Sam Rothstein`s application...Copy !req
1642. for a gaming license
is underway.Copy !req
1643. Rothstein, who heads the Tangiers Casino
operation and is a boyhood friend...Copy !req
1644. of Las Vegas mob boss
Nicky Santoro...Copy !req
1645. could lose his ability
to work in the casino—Copy !req
1646. - Hello?Copy !req
1647. - I gotta meet Clean Face.
What about the Chez Paris?
- You can`t.Copy !req
1648. - You gotta make a reservation.
It`s all booked up.
- No, no.Copy !req
1649. It`s impossible.
You gotta make a reservation.Copy !req
1650. It`s very difficult
to get in.Copy !req
1651. l`ll use the service entrance.
l`ll see you at 9:00.Copy !req
1652. All right.Copy !req
1653. The battle between State gaming
officials and Tangiers Casino boss...Copy !req
1654. Sam "Ace" Rothstein
is heating up.Copy !req
1655. Tonight, an up-to-the-minute look
at Ace Rothstein`s attempt
to get state licensing...Copy !req
1656. despite law enforcement allegations
of Rothstein`s
organized crime connections.Copy !req
1657. Will Sam Rothstein`s friendship
with alleged organized crime
figure Nicky Santoro...Copy !req
1658. keep Rothstein from running
the Tangiers Casino?Copy !req
1659. And can the integrity
of state gaming laws be jeopardized
by a boyhood friendship?Copy !req
1660. - Why don`t you take it easy
on that stuff? Huh?Copy !req
1661. Come on.
Let me help you down.Copy !req
1662. We`re talking
about some stuff.Copy !req
1663. At 6:00: Will a boyhood friendship
unseat Rothstein
as the Tangiers Casino boss?Copy !req
1664. Exclusive on the KBBO
special news report.Copy !req
1665. - Go down. Just... go downst-Copy !req
1666. You can`t let this concern you, Ace.
Don`t worry.Copy !req
1667. It`s just a political
witch hunt.Copy !req
1668. Ace.Copy !req
1669. Do you want
something to drink?Copy !req
1670. - Charlie, a refill?
- Yeah, great.Copy !req
1671. No. Hey, Mr. Clark.
l`ve been tryin` to reach you.Copy !req
1672. - You`re tougher to get
than the president.
- Well, l`ve been busy.Copy !req
1673. Yeah? At least you could return
my phone calls, though.Copy !req
1674. Listen, Nicky,
we talked about this.Copy !req
1675. And I explained to you that you might
have to take some kind of loss.Copy !req
1676. Yeah.Copy !req
1677. I think I want my money back.Copy !req
1678. What are you gonna do, strong-arm me?Copy !req
1679. - You know, I think you`ve gotten
the wrong impression about me.Copy !req
1680. I think, in all fairness...Copy !req
1681. I should explain to you
exactly what it is that I do.Copy !req
1682. Tomorrow morning l`ll get up nice
and early, take a walk to the bank...Copy !req
1683. and walk in and see, and, uh,
if you don`t have my money for me...Copy !req
1684. l`ll crack your fuckin` head
wide open in front of everybody.Copy !req
1685. And just about the time
that l`m comin` out of jail...Copy !req
1686. hopefully you`ll be comin`
out of your coma.Copy !req
1687. And guess what? l`ll split
your fuckin` head open again.Copy !req
1688. `Cause l`m fuckin` stupid.
I don`t give a fuck about jail.Copy !req
1689. That`s my business.
That`s what I do.Copy !req
1690. We know what you do. You fuck people
out of money and get away with it.Copy !req
1691. - You can`t talk to me like that.
- Hey, you fat lrish prick!
You put my money to sleep!Copy !req
1692. - Get my money, or l`ll put
your brain to sleep.
- Sam!Copy !req
1693. Never mind Sam.
This is personal.Copy !req
1694. l`ll be there in the morning. You can
try me, Fatso. You fuckin` try me.Copy !req
1695. You think he got the point?Copy !req
1696. What`re you doin`?
He`s a square guy, for chrissakes.
He`s gonna run to the F.B.l.Copy !req
1697. That prick`s been dodgin` me
for three weeks.
You`re tryin` to tell me what to do.Copy !req
1698. l`m not tryin` to tell you what to do.
You`re outta line. Where`s your head?Copy !req
1699. Where`s my head?
Where`s your fuckin` balls?Copy !req
1700. l`m tryin` to put somethin` big together
here. You know what l`m talkin` about.Copy !req
1701. if you're actin` like this now,
can I depend on you?Copy !req
1702. A lot of things gonna change.
if you wanna be there with me,
you're gonna have to go my way.Copy !req
1703. Listen, Nick, understand my situation.
l`m responsible for thousands of people.Copy !req
1704. I got a hundred million a year
goin` through the place.Copy !req
1705. It`s all over if I don`t
get that license.Copy !req
1706. if it goes bad for me,
it`s bad for a lot of people.Copy !req
1707. Forget about your fuckin` license.
I plant my own flag,
you ain`t gonna need a license.Copy !req
1708. You know, I don`t know what it is,
Sammy, but the more I talk to you...Copy !req
1709. the more I feel like you just
don`t want to go along with me.Copy !req
1710. - No, I don`t want
to come along with you.
- All right, fine.Copy !req
1711. I don`t want to be involved
in anything you're talking about, okay?Copy !req
1712. I want to run a square joint.
I just want my license.Copy !req
1713. I want everything quiet.
That`s it!Copy !req
1714. Quiet like this?
"l`m the boss"? That`s quiet?Copy !req
1715. That`s taken out of context.
I had no control over that.Copy !req
1716. - Ronnie and Billy will tell you
exactly what happened.
- Back home that looks bad.Copy !req
1717. Looks bad? Every time you're
on television, I get mentioned.
That looks bad.Copy !req
1718. - What the fuck happened to you?
- What happened to me?Copy !req
1719. - What happened to you?
You lost control.
- I lost control?Copy !req
1720. Look at you, you're fuckin` walkin`
around like John Barrymore.Copy !req
1721. A pink robe and a fuckin`
cigarette holder? I lost control?Copy !req
1722. I don`t wanna bring this up,
but you been treatin` people
with disrespect, even your wife.Copy !req
1723. My wife? What does she have
to do with this?Copy !req
1724. She was upset about a lot of things,
especially that whole fuckin`
Lester Diamond incident.Copy !req
1725. You`re the shoulder to cry on?
Did you her tell about your
little role in that situation?Copy !req
1726. No, that`s not
the fuckin` point.Copy !req
1727. - The point is, she`s upset,
and you`ve got a problem.
- I would appreciate it...Copy !req
1728. if you stay out
of my personal life.Copy !req
1729. - You wouldn`t like it
if I did it to you.
- She came to talk to me.Copy !req
1730. What was I supposed to do?
Throw her out?Copy !req
1731. - Stay away from her.
It`s none of your business.
- It`s none of my business?Copy !req
1732. A week ago it was. Now it`s none of my
business. When you need me, you need me.Copy !req
1733. The way you need me
to vouch for you as a citizen.Copy !req
1734. l`m gonna have to straighten out
what you did with this guy.Copy !req
1735. This guy is gonna run
to the F.B.l. Now.Copy !req
1736. Your head`s bigger
than your casino.Copy !req
1737. I knew what
he wanted. Nicky wanted to take over.Copy !req
1738. He wanted to go after Gaggi,
the skim, everything and everybody.Copy !req
1739. Plus, he had stopped asking permission
from back home for every little thing.Copy !req
1740. A casino boss and his wife were killed.
The bulls questioned Nicky.Copy !req
1741. A dealer from the Sirocco.
They questioned Nicky.Copy !req
1742. A bunch of stool pigeons wound up
in the trunks of their cars.
They questioned Nicky.Copy !req
1743. A lawyer.Copy !req
1744. - They questioned Nicky.Copy !req
1745. When some guys that didn`t pay
their shylocks began disappearing...Copy !req
1746. Nicky`s name was in every one
of those newspapers.Copy !req
1747. Nicky was questioned
in two dozen murders,
but they always had to let him go.Copy !req
1748. There were never any witnesses.Copy !req
1749. The coppers blamed me
for everything that went wrong.Copy !req
1750. Watch yourself.
You`re gonna get runned over, there.Copy !req
1751. if a guy fuckin` tripped over a
banana peel, they`d bring me in for it.Copy !req
1752. Come on, be nice, huh?Copy !req
1753. And the bosses were no better.
They complained
because things don`t run smooth.Copy !req
1754. In my line of work,
things don`t run so smooth. L`m sorry.Copy !req
1755. l`m dealin` with degenerate
animals out here.Copy !req
1756. But the bosses,
what do they give a fuck?Copy !req
1757. They`re sittin` on their asses
drinkin` anisette.Copy !req
1758. l`m the guy in the trenches.Copy !req
1759. Fuckin` bosses think it`s
a fuckin` free lunch out here.Copy !req
1760. Frankie, they found
a guy`s head in the desert.Copy !req
1761. You know about that?Copy !req
1762. - Yeah, I heard. Yeah.
- Yeah.Copy !req
1763. Everybody`s talkin`.
They`re makin` a big deal out of it.
It`s in all the papers.Copy !req
1764. What are you gonna do?Copy !req
1765. And I mean, that`s no good.
You gotta tell him to take care
of things a little better.Copy !req
1766. l`ll tell him, Remo.Copy !req
1767. Fuckin` bosses;
they`re smokin` their Di Nobilis...Copy !req
1768. and they`re eatin` trippa and fuckin`
suffritte, you know, fried pigs` guts.Copy !req
1769. if I want to talk private,
I gotta go to a bus stop.Copy !req
1770. - What do they care long as
I keep sendin` money back?
- They`re complainin`.Copy !req
1771. Let `em complain. L`m the one
who`s here. I do all the work.Copy !req
1772. - Somebody don`t like it, fuck `em.
- It`s up to you.Copy !req
1773. They want a fuckin` war?
l`m ready.Copy !req
1774. All I gotta do is take care
of five of those guys.
The rest will fall into place.Copy !req
1775. Peekaboo, you fucks, you.Copy !req
1776. I see you,
you motherfuckers.Copy !req
1777. Nicky was not only bringing
heat on himself but on me too.Copy !req
1778. The F.B.l. Watched every move he made,
but he didn`t care. He just didn`t care.Copy !req
1779. if they`re gonna watch me,
l`m gonna watch `em right back.Copy !req
1780. I spent a few bucks.
Top dollar. Who gives a shit?Copy !req
1781. I got the latest anti-buggin` equipment
from the same places
that sell to the fuckin` C.l.A.Copy !req
1782. I had special police frequency radios,
F.B.l. De-scramblers,
cameras that see in the dark.Copy !req
1783. And because of that,
the miserable sons of bitches
never caught me doin` anything.Copy !req
1784. I got my job on the line, and
this guy`s havin` the time of his life.Copy !req
1785. He has every cop in the state
watchin` him, and he`s out playin` golf.Copy !req
1786. And at the worst
possible time for me.Copy !req
1787. I had my license hearing coming up,
and I didn`t want to leave
anything to chance.Copy !req
1788. I mean, if I can`t work in Vegas,
where am I gonna go?Copy !req
1789. You`ve been very open with us.
I mean, your books and papers.Copy !req
1790. That`s gonna mean something
when you go before the commission.Copy !req
1791. - All I ask is a fair hearing.
- This kind of honesty will
guarantee that fair hearing.Copy !req
1792. - All right, well, we`ll move on to—Copy !req
1793. - I wanted to hear
something about Kansas City.Copy !req
1794. What the fuck is this?Copy !req
1795. Where`s this guy
gonna land, the fairway?Copy !req
1796. They`re fuckin` agents, Frankie.
Look at this.Copy !req
1797. The Feds were watching Nicky
play golf for so long...Copy !req
1798. they ran out of gas.Copy !req
1799. Just what I needed, right
in front of the Control Board.Copy !req
1800. A hundred dollars,
whoever hits the plane.Copy !req
1801. And as if things weren`t bad enough,
in comes Piscano,
the Kansas City underboss.Copy !req
1802. He ran that little grocery store
in Kansas City
where they bought the suitcases.Copy !req
1803. Fightin` over those suitcases again.
You know what that means, right?Copy !req
1804. I gotta take another trip to Vegas, and
it`s gonna cost me another couple grand.Copy !req
1805. He ran it with his brother-in-law...Copy !req
1806. but mostly what he did was complain
about his trips to Vegas.Copy !req
1807. You gotta lay down the law, otherwise
they`re gonna make a fool out of you.Copy !req
1808. I write it all down. Every fuckin`
nickel goes down. Receipts—Copy !req
1809. - Hey, oh, wha—
What`s the matter with you?
- Everything`s here.Copy !req
1810. - Since when do you talk like that?
- l`m sorry.Copy !req
1811. Nance gives me trouble,
l`ll tell him l`ll take the eyes
out of his frickin` head.Copy !req
1812. - Again.
- I said, "frickin` head."Copy !req
1813. - That`s enough.
- l`m sorry.Copy !req
1814. What happens next?
You can`t believe it.Copy !req
1815. Who would believe that the F.B.l.
had a wire in the place...Copy !req
1816. lookin` for some information
about some old homicide...Copy !req
1817. about some guy who was whacked-out
God knows when over God knows what.Copy !req
1818. What`s to prevent him with the suitcases
that he could take what he wants?Copy !req
1819. Fuckin` Nance takes back two suitcases
from the Tangiers.
What about three or four?Copy !req
1820. We`ve got nobody
in the room to watch. That`s the law.Copy !req
1821. We can`t even go into the count room
to watch our money.
You believe this bullshit?Copy !req
1822. Sure, he`s got his people in there.
They could all be in on it
together, those fucks.Copy !req
1823. l`ll find out. If it`s Green,
l`ll bury that bastard.Copy !req
1824. I never trusted him.
They trust that scumbag. I don`t.Copy !req
1825. - l`ll hit the two of them
with a fuckin` shovel.
- Take it easy.Copy !req
1826. Ma, l`m sorry.
They`re beatin` me left and right.Copy !req
1827. - Ma, l`m sorry. L`m all upset.
- I know, but that`s enough.Copy !req
1828. You know what they`re doin`. I can`t
take this no more. Back and forth.Copy !req
1829. - Take it easy. You`ll get
a heart attack like that.
- I know. L`m too upset.Copy !req
1830. And the damn thing is,
they hear all this stuff...Copy !req
1831. about Las Vegas
and the casinos and suitcases...Copy !req
1832. and that`s it.Copy !req
1833. Everything`s comin` outta my pocket.
I gotta pay.Copy !req
1834. Would you believe that
such a thing could happen?Copy !req
1835. l`m in this to make money,
not to lose money.Copy !req
1836. Every F.B.l. Man across the country
had their ears open now.Copy !req
1837. if you want something done right
you gotta do it yourself.Copy !req
1838. I mean, Piscano, this guy
basically sunk the whole world.Copy !req
1839. There are some that are good
and some that are bad.Copy !req
1840. Mr. Chairman,
members of the commission...Copy !req
1841. Mr. Rothstein is pleased
to be here today.Copy !req
1842. When the day finally came, I was ready.Copy !req
1843. I felt so confident that
all I had to do was present my case.Copy !req
1844. We have documents, one of which is
a report by retired F.B.l. Agents...Copy !req
1845. which completely absolves Mr. Rothstein
from any wrongdoing.Copy !req
1846. - Counselor, before you continue—
- I want to have this marked—Copy !req
1847. This commission is prepared
to act on a motion
denying the Rothstein application.Copy !req
1848. - Denying?
- Do I hear a motion seconded?Copy !req
1849. Mr. Chairman,
I second the motion.Copy !req
1850. Do I have a vote
on the motion?Copy !req
1851. - Aye.
- Aye. Aye.Copy !req
1852. The ayes have it.
This hearing is adjourned.Copy !req
1853. - You have to be kidding.
- Adjourned?
What do you mean, "Adjourned"?Copy !req
1854. Senator, you promised me a hearing. You
didn`t even look at the F.B.l. Reports.Copy !req
1855. When you were my guest
at the Tangiers Hotel,
did you not promise me a fair hearing?Copy !req
1856. - I was never your guest.
- You were never my guest?
I never comped you?Copy !req
1857. - I don`t comp you
at least three times a month?
- l`d like to answer that.Copy !req
1858. Mr. Rothstein is being very typical
to this point. He`s lying.Copy !req
1859. The only time I was at the Tangiers
was with Barney Greenstein.Copy !req
1860. - Was I at that dinner?
Tell me, was I at that dinner?
- You were wandering.Copy !req
1861. - Was I at that dinner? Was l?
- You were wandering.Copy !req
1862. - You were... in the—
You were in the building.
- I was in the building?Copy !req
1863. You know I was at that dinner,
and you swore to me I would have
a fair hearing. Did you not?Copy !req
1864. Did you not? Well, tell me I was at
least at the dinner. Allow me that much.Copy !req
1865. - Give me that much at least!
- Yes, you were.Copy !req
1866. Thanks for not calling me a liar,
you son of a bitch. You son of a—Copy !req
1867. A routine licensing hearing
turned into bedlam yesterday...Copy !req
1868. when the flamboyant Tangiers Casino
executive, Sam "Ace" Rothstein...Copy !req
1869. - What are you runnin` for, Bob?
- accused the state`s top
gaming officials of corruption.Copy !req
1870. You promised me when you were
getting comped at my hotel.Copy !req
1871. You were asking me for copies
of your bill so you could put `em
on your expense account.Copy !req
1872. In a wild outburst that followed
his gaming license denial...Copy !req
1873. - Bullshit! Bullshit!
- Rothstein followed several...Copy !req
1874. stunned commissioners into the hallway
where he continued his harangue...Copy !req
1875. until his own lawyers
and friends urged him to leave.Copy !req
1876. You have a past. I have a past.
My past is no worse than yours.Copy !req
1877. But you guys think you have
the right to pass judgment!Copy !req
1878. Long suspected of running
the Tangiers without a license...Copy !req
1879. yesterday`s hearing was
to determine whether someone
with Rothstein`s history...Copy !req
1880. was qualified to officially hold
a top gaming post.Copy !req
1881. Fuckin` hypocrites!Copy !req
1882. - What the hell`s he gonna do now?
- I don`t know.Copy !req
1883. What`s he doin`? He knows all those
guys he yelled at are friends of ours.Copy !req
1884. What`s the matter with him,
making all this mess?Copy !req
1885. Maybe he could run things with another
job title. What are we gonna do?Copy !req
1886. However he runs things,
it`s gotta be quiet.
Let him hide upstairs in the office.Copy !req
1887. Say he`s a janitor.
I don`t give a shit.Copy !req
1888. But, please, whatever job he takes,
make sure it`s something quiet.Copy !req

the new entertainment director

1902. Welcome to the Sam Rothstein Show.
We`re very happy

- l`m very proud to say
that we have eight children.Copy !req
1909. - No, no, please. Please.Copy !req

- There`s nothing to it.
It was my pleasure.Copy !req

1913. Oh, Jesus.Copy !req
1914. He`s juggling!Copy !req
1915. Let`s not take Commissioner
Pat Webb too seriously.Copy !req
1916. I recently challenged him to a debate
on this program, and he declined.Copy !req
1917. What are you worried about, Pat?
You don`t have to send me any questions.Copy !req
1918. You can ask me
anything you want.Copy !req
1919. What the hell is he doin`
on television, anyway?Copy !req
1920. He`s on all night,
screamin` about how he`s gonna take
his lawsuit to the Supreme Court.Copy !req
1921. He really must be crazy.
He`s gonna go to Washington with this?Copy !req
1922. He`s out
of his fuckin` mind.Copy !req
1923. It`s a pity we have such hypocrisy.
Some people do what they want.Copy !req
1924. Other people have to pay
through the nose. Such is life.Copy !req
1925. Andy, go see him. Tell him
maybe it`s time he should quit.Copy !req
1926. First of all, what they did
was totally unconstitutional.Copy !req
1927. We`re on the list to be heard before
the Supreme Court of the United States.Copy !req
1928. These guys don`t give a fuck
about the Supreme Court.
They want you to walk away.Copy !req
1929. Walk away? Andy, you can`t be serious.
How can I walk away?
Don`t you see what`s at stake?Copy !req
1930. The old man said maybe
your friend should give in.Copy !req
1931. When the old man says "maybe,"
that`s like a papal bull.Copy !req
1932. Not only should you quit,
you should run.Copy !req
1933. Every time they mention my name
in the papers, they mention Nicky too.Copy !req
1934. How the fuck
does that help?Copy !req
1935. The heat he brought down
is murder.Copy !req
1936. The police department was cooperative.
He pissed `em off.
Nobody can make a move anymore.Copy !req
1937. - What are you proposing?
- I don`t know. He doesn`t listen to me.Copy !req
1938. Maybe he should get lost
for awhile. Would that be so bad?Copy !req
1939. - They ain`t sendin` Nicky nowhere.
- if he took a break...Copy !req
1940. it would give everybody
time to maneuver.Copy !req
1941. I would forget about the maneuver.
I would just get out.Copy !req
1942. I can`t do that.Copy !req
1943. As soon as Andy got home,
Nicky heard about our talk.Copy !req
1944. Next morning, bright and early,
I get the call.Copy !req
1945. Great. You know, l`ve got to do
some shopping. You want to go?Copy !req
1946. Getting a call
from Nicky wasn`t easy.Copy !req
1947. Even the codes didn`t work.
So we figured out another act.Copy !req
1948. if a phone`s tapped, the Feds can only
listen in on the stuff involving crimes.Copy !req
1949. So on routine calls, they have
to click off after a few minutes.Copy !req
1950. Yeah, I got
a sprained fuckin` elbow.Copy !req
1951. - Yeah.
- Meet me at 3:00.Copy !req
1952. - At Caesar`s?
- 100 yards down the road.Copy !req
1953. - Why?
- Don`t ask questions. Just be there.Copy !req
1954. Suzy Cream Cheese has
the exact same outfit.Copy !req
1955. I saw something.Copy !req
1956. Something very cute.Copy !req
1957. Okay, he`s out.
It`s the ant. Brown unit.Copy !req
1958. And he`s with the bogey.
I think it`s Frankie.Copy !req
1959. Nicky started out before me...Copy !req
1960. because it wasn`t that easy
for him to get around.Copy !req
1961. Nicky couldn`t even go
for a ride without changing cars...Copy !req
1962. at least six times
before he could shake all his tails.Copy !req
1963. Because of the planes,
he had to use underground garages.Copy !req
1964. Meeting in the middle
of the desert always made me nervous.Copy !req
1965. It`s a scary place.Copy !req
1966. I knew about the holes
in the desert, of course.Copy !req
1967. And everywhere I looked,
there could have been a hole.Copy !req
1968. Normally, my prospects
of comin` back alive...Copy !req
1969. from a meetin` with Nicky
were 99 out of 100.Copy !req
1970. But this time, when I heard him say a
couple of hundred yards down the road...Copy !req
1971. I gave myself 50-50.Copy !req
1972. Where the fuck you get off talkin`
to people behind my back,
goin` over my head?Copy !req
1973. - What people?
- What people? What`d you think,
I wasn`t gonna find out?Copy !req
1974. I don`t even know
what you're talkin` about.Copy !req
1975. You said l`m bringin` heat on you?
I gotta listen to people
because of your shit?Copy !req
1976. You`re orderin` me out? You better get
your own fuckin` army, pal!Copy !req
1977. I didn`t order you or anybody.
I told Andy Stone that you had heat,
and that was a problem.Copy !req
1978. - You want me to get out
of my own fuckin` town?
- Yeah.Copy !req
1979. Let the bullshit blow over
so I can run the casino.Copy !req
1980. Anything goes wrong
with the casino, it`s my ass.
It`s not yours. It`s my ass.Copy !req
1981. I don`t know whether you know
you have your fuckin` casino
because I made that possible!Copy !req
1982. l`m what counts out here.
Not your fuckin` country clubs
or your fuckin` TV shows!Copy !req
1983. And what the fuck
are you doin` on TV anyhow?Copy !req
1984. I get calls from home every day.
They think you went batshit!Copy !req
1985. l`m only on TV because
I gotta be able to hang around
the casino. You understand.Copy !req
1986. You could have had
the food-and-beverage job
without goin` on television!Copy !req
1987. You wanted to go on TV.Copy !req
1988. Yeah, I wanted to go on TV.
That way I have a forum.
I can fight back.Copy !req
1989. They know they can`t fuck around
with me like they could
if I was an unknown. That`s right.Copy !req
1990. You`re makin`
a spectacle of yourself.Copy !req
1991. Me? I wouldn`t even be
in this situation if it wasn`t for you.Copy !req
1992. Every time I meet somebody,
the question is: Do I know you?Copy !req
1993. - Sure, now you wanna blame
your fuckin` license on me.
- No, Nicky.Copy !req
1994. When you asked me
if you could come out here...Copy !req
1995. what did I tell you?
Do you remember?Copy !req
1996. - Back up a fuckin` minute here.
- Do you remember what I told you?Copy !req
1997. I asked you? When the fuck did
I ever ask you if I could come out here?Copy !req
1998. Get this through your head,
you Jew motherfucker, you!Copy !req
1999. You only exist out here because of me!
That`s the only reason!Copy !req
2000. Without me,
you personally—Copy !req
2001. Every fuckin` wise guy still around will
take a piece of your fuckin` Jew ass!Copy !req
2002. Then where you gonna go?
You`re fuckin` warned.Copy !req

2023. We turned our heads and made out
we didn`t know who he was.Copy !req
2024. He`s over at the 21 table

2025. He took money out of his own kick.
His nose is open for about 10,000.Copy !req

2053. Get outta here?
I got a marker comin`. Deal.Copy !req
2054. Everything`s changed now.
You`re talking about a divorce.Copy !req
2055. You`re asking for alimony payments
and child support, and now custody.Copy !req
2056. I just want what any
divorced woman would get.Copy !req
2057. She's only sober
about two hours a day.Copy !req
2058. It`s usually from 11:00 in the morning
`til 1:00 in the afternoon.Copy !req
2059. if I gave her her money and her jewels,
she`s gonna piss it all away in a year.Copy !req
2060. Where would you be then?
Comin` right back to me...Copy !req
2061. - or findin` some other excuse to come—
- We had a deal.Copy !req
2062. Remember that?Copy !req
2063. He said if it didn`t work out
between us, I could get my things,
and I could leave.Copy !req
2064. Look in my eyes.Copy !req
2065. Look-Look in my eyes.
You know me.Copy !req
2066. Do you see anything that makes
you think I would ever let...Copy !req
2067. someone in your condition
take my child away from me?Copy !req
2068. Do you?Copy !req
2069. You know that won`t happen.Copy !req
2070. And after all this time...Copy !req
2071. and as hard as I tried,
as much as I wanted...Copy !req
2072. I could never reach her.Copy !req
2073. I could never make
her love me.Copy !req
2074. I always felt she should have gone
for all that money...Copy !req
2075. being somebody
for the first time in her life...Copy !req
2076. a home, a kid.Copy !req
2077. That`s not what happened.
It didn`t work out that way.Copy !req
2078. - Everything all right?
I mean, what could we do?Copy !req
2079. After a while, we`d just take breathers
from each other. Little separations.Copy !req
2080. At that time, I remember Ginger
took Amy to Beverly Hills.Copy !req
2081. She was gonna spend
a week shopping.Copy !req
2082. - Yes, Mr. Rothstein.
- Operator, the Beverly Hotel
in Beverly Hills, please.Copy !req
2083. - Beverly Hotel.

2085. Mr. And Mrs. Rothstein?Copy !req
2086. Hey, little Dale Evans.Copy !req
2087. - Yes, they both checked out.
- Thank you.Copy !req
2088. Hello. Yeah.Copy !req
2089. My wife is with an old friend
of hers in L.A.Copy !req
2090. Some lowlife.
A guy named Lester Diamond.Copy !req
2091. My daughter is with them, and I think
they`re gonna try and kidnap her.Copy !req
2092. - Is there anybody you can send?
- We`ll take care of it.Copy !req
2093. We got a number and an address.Copy !req
2094. - Hello. Is this Lester?
- Hello.Copy !req
2095. Who`s calling?Copy !req
2096. This is Sam Rothstein. I want to talk
to Ginger. Put her on the phone.Copy !req
2097. She's not here, Sam.Copy !req
2098. Listen to me very carefully.
I want to talk to Ginger.Copy !req
2099. I want my kid back.
I want her put on a plane immediately.Copy !req
2100. - I know she`s there. Don`t fuck around.
- Sam, I wouldn`t.Copy !req
2101. - You shouldn`t do this.Copy !req
2102. - You understand?
Put her on the fuckin` phone.Copy !req
2103. Sam, I don`t know where she is.Copy !req
2104. So... listen—

2106. - Okay, l`ll call you right back.
- Right away.Copy !req
2107. - Right back.
- You got it.Copy !req
2108. Schmuck. All right,
I just bought us a few minutes.Copy !req
2109. You want to get back
at this prick? Hmm?Copy !req
2110. - Okay, you got what?
Two million in that box?Copy !req
2111. Hey, you got a minute? He`s got
two million in the box, am I right?Copy !req
2112. You let him
keep your jewels.Copy !req
2113. We take the cash and the only other
thing he cares about. Huh? Her majesty.Copy !req
2114. We go to Europe.
You dye your hair.Copy !req
2115. I don`t want to go to Europe.
I want to go to see "The Elephant Man."Copy !req
2116. We`re going to Europe.
Let the adults talk. You dye your hair.Copy !req
2117. You get plastic surgery
like we talked about.Copy !req
2118. You`re the mother. How much you think
he`ll pay to get this kid back?Copy !req
2119. - I don`t want to go to Europe.
- Shut your mouth.
You know where she gets this?Copy !req
2120. - You shut up.
You want me to come over there?Copy !req
2121. l`ll smack your face.
Don`t give me your shit!Copy !req
2122. This has always been a dream,
but now we`re going.Copy !req
2123. - Lester, he called you here.
He called you right here.
- That`s who was on the phone.Copy !req
2124. - I just talked to him.
- So he knows where you are.Copy !req
2125. That means he`s sending some guys
over here, probably right now.Copy !req
2126. It means he`s sitting
by the phone, like a dumbbell...Copy !req
2127. - waiting for me to call him back.
- He`s sitting by the phone
just waiting for you to call.Copy !req
2128. What do you think we`re gonna do?
He`s probably got guys
outside the fuckin` house!Copy !req
2129. - This is fuckin` bullshit!
This is bullshit!
- Get your bag! Let`s go!Copy !req
2130. - Oh, what bullshit? What?
You want to talk it over now?
- Okay, you done yakkin`?Copy !req
2131. - Go, go! Get in the car!
- Go, go, go.Copy !req
2132. Just relax.
Nobody`s killing anybody.Copy !req
2133. I think he`s gonna kill me.
- Just relax.Copy !req
2134. Call me back here in exactly an hour
on this phone. L`ll see what I can do.Copy !req
2135. l`m gonna call you back
in an hour at this number...Copy !req
2136. - and you're gonna be there, right?
- l`ll be here.Copy !req
2137. Listen, don`t do anything else crazy,
okay? You all right? Okay.Copy !req
2138. Bye.Copy !req
2139. - Just knock it off.
You two knock it off.
- She started it.Copy !req
2140. - She started the whole thing.
l`m just standing here.
- Get in the car.Copy !req
2141. You`re not gonna drive. Don`t even think
you're gonna drive. L`m gonna drive.Copy !req
2142. - l`m not gonna drive
with some crazy woman.
- You`re driving me nuts!Copy !req
2143. Get on the passenger side! And l`m
sending this kid to Bolivia in a box!Copy !req
2144. Can we—Copy !req
2145. ÷ You can go your own way ÷Copy !req
2146. ÷ Go your own way ÷Copy !req
2147. ÷ Tell me why ÷Copy !req
2148. - ÷ Everything turned around ÷
- Ginger called me.Copy !req
2149. - ÷÷
- Yeah.Copy !req
2150. - I just told you she called me.
- What`d she want?Copy !req
2151. She was afraid to call you.Copy !req
2152. - She's with that cocksucker.
They got Amy.
- That`s why l`m here.Copy !req
2153. She wants to come back, but she`s
afraid you're gonna whack her out.Copy !req
2154. - They`re gonna kidnap my kid.
What do you want?
- I know.Copy !req
2155. Why didn`t you come to me? I mean,
this is family. It ain`t business.Copy !req
2156. You make calls back home. It makes us
look bad out here. You know what I mean?Copy !req
2157. Back and forth,
this one and that one.Copy !req
2158. In the meantime,
she`s gone anyway.Copy !req
2159. - Am I right?Copy !req
2160. What am I going to do
with this woman?Copy !req
2161. - Driving me fuckin` crazy.
- I think if you, uh...Copy !req
2162. assure her that she`s gonna be
all right, she`ll come back.Copy !req
2163. Driving me fuckin` crazy.Copy !req
2164. Once you get her here,
you think about it.Copy !req
2165. Wait `til you get the kid back.
She wants to come back.Copy !req
2166. That`s the main thing here.Copy !req
2167. You want your kid, don`t you?
Huh?Copy !req
2168. - Hello.Copy !req
2169. Hi, it`s me. Just who you wanted
to talk to, right?Copy !req
2170. Listen, l`m not gonna
ask you where you are.Copy !req
2171. Just, please, put Amy on a plane,
any plane, to get her here right away.Copy !req
2172. - That`s all l`m asking.
- Do you—Copy !req
2173. I mean, I don`t think
she should go by herself.Copy !req
2174. What do you mean?Copy !req
2175. What I mean is—Copy !req
2176. Do you think if I came back—Copy !req
2177. Do you think
you could forgive me?Copy !req
2178. I gotta tell you, I don`t know.Copy !req
2179. I understand that.Copy !req
2180. I know I fucked up.Copy !req
2181. - What about the money? Where`s the box?
- I gotta tell ya...Copy !req
2182. I made some mistakes,
and I spent some money.Copy !req
2183. - What`s it under?
- Pretty serious.Copy !req
2184. - How serious?
- It`s under 25.Copy !req
2185. - It`s under 25,000?
- Yeah.Copy !req
2186. - The rest of the two million
is still there?
- Yeah, I got the rest.Copy !req
2187. Okay, no big deal.
That`s okay.Copy !req
2188. He got his 25.Copy !req
2189. That l`ll live with.
Any more, I couldn`t.Copy !req
2190. Okay.Copy !req
2191. All right, all right. Where are you?
l`ll send a plane for you right away.Copy !req
2192. Hi, Sam.Copy !req
2193. So what`d you do with it?Copy !req
2194. With what?Copy !req
2195. With the money.Copy !req
2196. He needed some clothes.Copy !req
2197. 25,000 for clothes?Copy !req
2198. He wanted a watch too.Copy !req
2199. - 25,000 for clothes and a watch?
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
2200. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
2201. - Good evening, signora. This way.
- Geno.Copy !req
2202. The good part was I had Amy back.Copy !req
2203. So we went home, had the housekeeper
stay over, put the kid to bed.Copy !req
2204. I calmed myself down,
and we went to dinner.Copy !req
2205. I tried to keep things
nice and civil...Copy !req
2206. but, hey,
25,000 for three suits?Copy !req
2207. That doesn`t
make much sense.Copy !req
2208. First of all, he`s not gonna wear
thousand-dollar suits.Copy !req
2209. Let`s say he did,
which he won`t.Copy !req
2210. How you gonna get fitted
for 25 suits in three days?Copy !req
2211. - ÷ l`m confessin` ÷
- I mean, how could you
get fitted that fast?Copy !req
2212. I can`t get fitted that fast,
and I pay twice as much.Copy !req
2213. - I bought him a watch too.
- Yeah.Copy !req
2214. But even if you bought him a really nice
watch, one that he thought was nice—Copy !req
2215. He doesn`t know
what the fuck a good watch is.Copy !req
2216. - Say you go five, ten, twelve grand...
- Yeah.Copy !req
2217. at the most,
which is impossible, for him.Copy !req
2218. Plus, at the most, three suits,
1,000 apiece. That still leaves what?Copy !req
2219. - Around 10,000?
- Would you knock it off, Sam?Copy !req
2220. - l`m just trying to figure it out.
- There`s nothing to figure out.Copy !req
2221. l`m home.
We`re working it out.Copy !req
2222. l`ve been told before,
"We`re working it out."Copy !req
2223. You think
that you're home...Copy !req
2224. after what you just put me
through with Amy, is a favor to me?Copy !req
2225. So, counting the watch,
let`s say another 4,000...Copy !req
2226. for expenses over the weekend...Copy !req
2227. of which you must have
had a good time.Copy !req
2228. I know he did.
That`s for sure.Copy !req
2229. I know that fuckin` piece
of shit had a good fuckin` time.Copy !req
2230. On my money.Copy !req
2231. You might as well have fucked him,
which you probably did anyway.Copy !req
2232. You`re lookin` at me
a certain way.Copy !req
2233. You`re teary-eyed, huh?Copy !req
2234. You`re upset. You`re
a good actress, you know that?Copy !req
2235. Good fuckin` actress.Copy !req
2236. You can fuckin` get
that pity out of people.Copy !req
2237. l`m not a john.
You understand?Copy !req
2238. You always thought I was,
but l`m not. And l`m not a sucker.Copy !req
2239. That fuckin` pimp cocksucker.Copy !req
2240. He`s lucky I didn`t
kill him last time.Copy !req
2241. Lucky he`s fuckin` livin`.
if you would have stayed with Amy...Copy !req
2242. and you would have ran away,
he would have been fuckin` dead.Copy !req
2243. Both of you. Dead. Dead.Copy !req
2244. ÷ Dreamin` dreams of you
Little babe ÷÷Copy !req
2245. No,
it isn`t right. It isn`t fair.Copy !req
2246. Yes.Copy !req
2247. He doesn`t come home at night.
What is the big fuckin` deal?Copy !req
2248. I go— Listen, I just
can`t fuckin` take it.Copy !req
2249. Why should I fuckin` take it?
That wasn`t the deal.Copy !req
2250. He acts like l`m the only one
around here with a fuckin` past.Copy !req
2251. He`ll never let me
live it down.Copy !req
2252. Well, yes, I have tried.
Of course l`ve tried.Copy !req
2253. What the fuck do you think
I came back here for?Copy !req
2254. No, l`m not.
I want to have him killed.Copy !req
2255. Yes, I want him killed.
l`ve fuckin` had it.Copy !req
2256. So are you with me on this?Copy !req
2257. You want to get rid of me?
Here I am.Copy !req
2258. Go ahead.
Get rid of me.Copy !req
2259. - Hello.
- Yes, I do!Copy !req
2260. I fuckin` hate you!
I can`t take it anymore!Copy !req
2261. - Yes, I want to kill you!
I hate your fuckin` guts!
- You hate my guts?Copy !req
2262. - l`m sick of being with you!
- I want you to come with me now!Copy !req
2263. - Come with me now. Come with me now.Copy !req
2264. - I want you out.
I want you out of here.Copy !req
2265. - I want you out of here!
I want you out of here!Copy !req
2266. Take your fuckin` bag
and get out of here!Copy !req
2267. l`ll go, but I want
my money right now!Copy !req
2268. - You`ll get your money! Don`t worry.
- The arrangement is over.Copy !req
2269. - No kidding!
- And I still get my money.Copy !req
2270. I need some cash right now!
You can`t just put me in the street!Copy !req
2271. You haven`t been straight
with me ever since I met you!Copy !req
2272. You never even loved me
in the first place!Copy !req
2273. I need eyes in the back
of my head with you, you fuckin` bitch!Copy !req
2274. How could I love you?
You treat me like l`m your fucking dog!Copy !req
2275. - You`re lower than a dog!
- Fuck you!Copy !req
2276. Here! Here!
Is this enough money?Copy !req
2277. Will it last you
two fuckin` days? Take it!Copy !req
2278. - Greedy bitch. Take the fuckin` money.
- l`m going to the bank...Copy !req
2279. - and l`m getting my jewelry too!
- It opens at 9:00 a.m.Copy !req
2280. Don`t send your guys down there
to stop me! I mean it!Copy !req
2281. I guarantee you,
I will not stop you.Copy !req
2282. You`re not getting rid of me
with one fucking suitcase!Copy !req
2283. Come back tomorrow and get the rest.
Just get out of here. Fine!Copy !req
2284. - l`m taking Amy.
- You`re not taking Amy.Copy !req
2285. I am.
l`m waking her up right now.Copy !req
2286. You`re stoned. You`re a junkie.
Get out of here.Copy !req
2287. - I am not! She's my daughter too!
- Get out of here!Copy !req
2288. Send my lawyers a letter,
god-fuckin`-damn you!Copy !req
2289. You`re not getting away with this!
You`re not gonna cheat me out of my end!Copy !req
2290. Fucker!Copy !req
2291. The funny thing was,
after all that, I didn`t want her to go.Copy !req
2292. She was the mother of my kid.
I loved her.Copy !req
2293. And later, I realized I didn`t want
to give her the money...Copy !req
2294. because if I did,
I knew l`d never see her again.Copy !req
2295. - Oh. Have a good day at school, okay?
- Okay.Copy !req
2296. Okay, angel.Copy !req
2297. From now on, I have to know
where you and Amy are at all times.Copy !req
2298. Here`s a beeper.Copy !req
2299. I want you
to keep it on you.Copy !req
2300. It`s very light.Copy !req
2301. So I can call you
whenever I have to.Copy !req
2302. Okay?Copy !req
2303. What are you supposed to do?
What do you want to do?Copy !req
2304. You want to stay the way you are?
You can`t do that.Copy !req
2305. Listen, two people don`t get along,
at some point you gotta call it.Copy !req
2306. It`s none of my business,
but I think that`s what you gotta do.Copy !req
2307. You`re right.
I know.Copy !req
2308. - I was just—
- What? What?Copy !req
2309. - Nothing.
- What were you gonna say?Copy !req
2310. - I don`t—
- Tell me what you were gonna say.Copy !req
2311. - Yeah?
- Yeah.Copy !req
2312. I was thinking maybe
you know somebody at the bank...Copy !req
2313. who could help me
get my jewelry out?Copy !req
2314. There`s a lot
of money in there.Copy !req
2315. l`d be willing to take care
of anybody who helped me out.Copy !req
2316. - Let me think about that.
- Okay.Copy !req
2317. Let me see who I got. Gotta get
somebody I can trust, you know?Copy !req
2318. - You know he`s never gonna
give me my jewelry.
- Hmm.Copy !req
2319. He holds that key so tight,
he`s probably got it stuck up his ass.Copy !req
2320. You`re right. That`s Sammy.Copy !req
2321. And he`s probably
got it there too.Copy !req
2322. He`s so fuckin` lucky.
I could have buried him.Copy !req
2323. I could have gone to Europe

and he`d have killed me.
- No, he wouldn`t.Copy !req
2325. - I would have.Copy !req
2326. - He`d have been right too. Seriously.
- Come on.Copy !req
2327. - You don`t take a guy`s kid
and then take off.
- I didn`t.Copy !req
2328. I mean, I did, but then I did exactly
what you told me to do, and I came back.Copy !req
2329. - You did. You`re right.
You did. I like that.
- Exactly what you said.Copy !req
2330. - That`s what I like about you.
You did the right thing.
- I did what you told me.Copy !req
2331. - Yes, you did.
- Because you always tell me
the right thing to do.Copy !req
2332. Yeah.Copy !req
2333. ÷ And now that it`s all over ÷÷Copy !req
2334. He really fucked himself up
out here, didn`t he?Copy !req
2335. - He sure did.
- Everything went to his head.Copy !req
2336. - Changed.
- Changed.Copy !req
2337. - He did. He ain`t the same person.

2338. - He really thinks who the fuck he is.

2348. You gotta help me.Copy !req
2349. I need a new sponsor, Nicky.Copy !req
2350. I do.
I need a new sponsor.Copy !req
2351. - Is that what you want?
- Yeah.Copy !req
2352. - A sponsor?
- Yeah.Copy !req
2353. Okay.
Don`t worry about it.Copy !req
2354. Nobody will fuck

2355. - l`ll take care of you. Yes, I will.
- Take care of me.Copy !req
2356. - It`s what you want, isn`t it?
- Thank you. Yeah.Copy !req
2357. - Yeah. Uh-huh.

2368. ÷ My only sin was

2371. - Hi.
- Hi.Copy !req
2372. - You didn`t answer your beeper.
- I threw it away.Copy !req
2373. You threw it away?Copy !req
2374. I tried to do this thing. I know that
you want me to, but it`s just—Copy !req
2375. l`m driving down the freeway
and the fuckin` thing`s
beep, beep, beep, beep, beep!Copy !req
2376. l`m in a restaurant,
it`s embarrassing.Copy !req
2377. I don`t want to do it anymore.
Where`s Amy?Copy !req
2378. - I put her to bed.
- Oh.Copy !req
2379. I got your cigarettes.Copy !req
2380. Oscar wants you to call him.Copy !req
2381. - So who`d you go to lunch with?
- Jennifer.Copy !req
2382. - Where`d you go?
- To the Riviera.Copy !req
2383. What`d you have?Copy !req
2384. - I had a salad.
- What did Jennifer have?Copy !req
2385. She had the same.Copy !req
2386. Okay.Copy !req
2387. I want you
to call Jennifer...Copy !req
2388. and I want you to tell her
to tell you what you had for lunch.Copy !req
2389. l`m gonna listen in
on the other line.Copy !req
2390. - Why do you want to do that?
- You know why.Copy !req
2391. - Just do it.
- Fine.Copy !req
2392. I just need to get
the bowl for my thing.Copy !req
2393. The line`s busy.Copy !req
2394. There`s nobody there.Copy !req
2395. - Hello.
- Hello, Jennifer. It`s Sam.Copy !req
2396. All right.
I didn`t have lunch with Jennifer.Copy !req
2397. - Okay.Copy !req
2398. Who were you with?Copy !req
2399. I was with somebody.Copy !req
2400. I know you were with somebody.
Who was it?Copy !req
2401. I just hope it`s not someone
who I think it might be.Copy !req
2402. I just hope it`s not that.Copy !req
2403. I knew she fucked around.Copy !req
2404. She did what she did,
and I did what I had to do...Copy !req
2405. but, Jesus, Nicky was the worst thing
she could have done.Copy !req
2406. What if he won`t stop?Copy !req
2407. It could get us both killed.Copy !req
2408. I can back him off.Copy !req
2409. She was
very convincing when she wanted to be.Copy !req
2410. And this is how
she backed him off.Copy !req
2411. Hey, Ginger.Copy !req
2412. Don`t forget,
if you're challenged...Copy !req
2413. if he asks anything,
deny everything.Copy !req
2414. You understand? I don`t want him
bringing beefs back home.Copy !req
2415. That could really cause
a serious problem.Copy !req
2416. Got to be careful.
He`s not dumb, you know?Copy !req
2417. You hear what l`m saying, right?Copy !req
2418. I know. You don`t have
to tell me that.Copy !req
2419. What? Do you think l`m stupid?Copy !req
2420. Do I think you're stupid? No.Copy !req
2421. I think you're beautiful.
But I gotta go.Copy !req
2422. By this time, Nicky had things
so fucked up on the streets...Copy !req
2423. that every time Marino went back home,
the packages got smaller and smaller.Copy !req
2424. It got to the point,
when he walked into the place...Copy !req
2425. he didn`t know whether he was
going to be kissed or killed.Copy !req
2426. Frankie,
I want to ask you something.Copy !req
2427. It`s private.Copy !req
2428. But I want you
to tell me the truth.Copy !req
2429. Of course, Remo.Copy !req
2430. I want you to tell me
the truth, mind you.Copy !req
2431. I always tell you
the truth, Remo.Copy !req
2432. Frankie... the little guy...Copy !req
2433. he wouldn`t be fucking
the Jew`s wife, would he?Copy !req
2434. Because if he is,
it`s a problem.Copy !req
2435. What could I say?Copy !req
2436. I knew if I gave
the wrong answer...Copy !req
2437. Nicky, Ginger, Ace, all of them
could have wound up gettin` killed.Copy !req
2438. Because there`s one thing
about these old-timers.Copy !req
2439. They don`t like any fucking around
with the other guys` wives.Copy !req
2440. It`s bad for business.Copy !req
2441. So I lied, even though I knew
that by lying to Gaggi...Copy !req
2442. I could wind up
gettin` killed too.Copy !req
2443. - No, I ain`t seen anything like that.
- Are you sure?Copy !req
2444. l`m positive.Copy !req
2445. Remo, things are very
fucked up down there.Copy !req
2446. I know.
That`s why l`m asking.Copy !req
2447. - You see, my main concern is Nicky.
- Mm-hmm.Copy !req
2448. I want to know if he`s
doing all right, if he`s okay.Copy !req
2449. - He`s good. He`s fine.
- l`m asking you to keep
an eye on Nicky.Copy !req
2450. - Do it for me.
- No problem.Copy !req
2451. I wouldn`t want to be jeopardizing
anything for our friends. Understand?Copy !req
2452. - I understand.
- Okay.Copy !req
2453. Frankie, you're a good boy.Copy !req
2454. Thanks, Remo.Copy !req
2455. By now, Nicky and his crew
had already hit rock bottom.Copy !req
2456. Vegas really got to him.Copy !req
2457. The booze, the coke, the broads.Copy !req
2458. I mean, he got sloppy.Copy !req
2459. He just wasn`t
the same Nicky anymore.Copy !req
2460. - You must have drank too much.
- Go fuck yourself.Copy !req
2461. One night he had
to belt a guy three times...Copy !req
2462. before the guy
finally went down.Copy !req
2463. In the old days, Nicky would have
decked him with one shot.Copy !req
2464. You add this into the mix—Copy !req
2465. Maybe just Vegas got to all of us.Copy !req
2466. His crew followed him
right over the edge.Copy !req
2467. They were all tuned up
half the time on coke.Copy !req
2468. They started doing stupid things.
The worst was Blue.Copy !req
2469. - Hey, what do you guys want?
- Police! Stay in the car!Copy !req
2470. He never knew
when to keep his mouth shut.Copy !req
2471. - Drop the gun!
- Fuck you!Copy !req
2472. The cops shot Blue...Copy !req
2473. - because they thought
his hero sandwich was a gun.Copy !req
2474. - They could have been right,
but who knows?
- Jesus Christ!Copy !req
2475. What gun? He`s got
a fuckin` hero sandwich here.Copy !req
2476. - What do you want? It`s pitch black.
- Pitch black!Copy !req
2477. - It`s tinfoil. It looked like a gun!
- You fuckin` moron!Copy !req
2478. - l`ll be fillin` out paperwork
for the next two months!
- What are we gonna do?Copy !req
2479. - l`m sorry!
- You jerk-off!Copy !req
2480. To get even,
Nicky`s crew got stoned one night...Copy !req
2481. and they started shooting up
the cops` houses.Copy !req
2482. It got to the point where they couldn`t
talk in the Gold Rush anymore...Copy !req
2483. because the Feds
put a wire in the wall.Copy !req
2484. Even when they talked outside,
they had to cover their mouths...Copy !req
2485. - Shit, he`s covering up again.
- because the Feds
brought in lip readers.Copy !req
2486. Nicky found out from a teller
who owed him money.Copy !req
2487. He asked me again
about you and the Jew`s wife.Copy !req
2488. Walk, walk, walk.
What`d you say?Copy !req
2489. He asked me again about you
and the Jew`s wife.Copy !req
2490. Yeah?
What`d you tell him?Copy !req
2491. I told him
I didn`t know nothin`.Copy !req
2492. Jiggs and Tony Gorilla said
if you did anything, you're fucked up.Copy !req
2493. You think he`s going home
making a beef behind my back?Copy !req
2494. Nah, you would have
heard something.Copy !req
2495. - What`s to stop him?
- I know, I know.Copy !req
2496. I don`t trust him anymore,
but they`d never okay anything.Copy !req
2497. Yeah, but they keep
asking about it.Copy !req
2498. Sure they`re asking.
They earn with the prick.Copy !req
2499. I got a funny feeling he`s gonna start
a fuckin` war or something.Copy !req
2500. l`m not sure yet,
but you know what I want you to do?Copy !req
2501. Who`s this guy?
Who`s this guy?Copy !req
2502. That ain`t nobody.Copy !req
2503. You know what
I want you to do?Copy !req
2504. Get a couple of guys to dig
a hole in the desert,
then let them show you where it`s at.Copy !req
2505. - Angelo and Buster.
- Yeah, but l`m not sure yet.Copy !req
2506. - They`ll do it.

2512. Where are these pricks at?
Dominick said they`re in the motel?Copy !req
2513. There or in the fuckin` bank.

- Yes. Yes. Fine! Fuck you!Copy !req

I have to get them.
So don`t let him come up here.Copy !req

Look what she`s doing.Copy !req

She had the keys.

2733. After all
the threats and all the bullshit...Copy !req
2734. it turned out Ginger
didn`t tell them anything.Copy !req
2735. - But, by then, the Feds
didn`t need her anyway.
- But it was mine.Copy !req
2736. - They had all the pieces they needed.
- But I didn`t do anything.Copy !req

Special Agent F.B.l.

don`t have to talk to us like that.Copy !req

Over to the alarm.Copy !req

- This area is seized!Copy !req
2750. - Get the master account list.
- I want all those papers seized
regardless of what they are.Copy !req

Piscano`s expense reports took the cake.Copy !req

- He might as well have given them
a fuckin` blueprint.Copy !req
2759. Everybody`s names, addresses,

Mr. Piscano. How considerate of you.Copy !req
2761. - Those are my mother`s books.
- You`re under arrest.Copy !req

2763. - Take it easy.

- Move back.Copy !req
2765. - I think it`s his heart!
Oh, God! Is he breathing?
- C.P.R. now!Copy !req

he had a heart attack...Copy !req
2767. and dropped dead right
in front of his wife.Copy !req
2768. - Calm down!
- Artie! No, I won`t calm down!Copy !req
2769. - He`s my husband! Artie! Artie!

2770. And at the end of the day...Copy !req
2771. they finally came to see me

some of them were so old...Copy !req
2779. they needed doctors
at their arraignment.Copy !req

that bail remain as presently set.Copy !req

like they could get...Copy !req
2782. 25 years to life in prison
just for skimmin` a casino...Copy !req
2783. sick or no fuckin` sick, you knew
people were going to get clipped.Copy !req
2784. So, the day of the arraignment,
they had this meeting right
in the back of the courthouse.Copy !req
2785. See, when something like this happens,
you know how things are gonna work out.Copy !req
2786. It`s always better with no witnesses.
So what about Andy?Copy !req
2787. He won`t talk.
Stone is a good kid.Copy !req
2788. Stand-up guy
just like his old man.Copy !req
2789. That`s the way I see it.Copy !req
2790. I agree. He`s solid.
He`s a fuckin` Marine.Copy !req
2791. He`s okay. He always was.
Remo, what do you think?Copy !req
2792. Look... why take a chance?Copy !req
2793. At least, that`s the way
I feel about it.Copy !req
2794. Call Artie. Tell him,
I don`t care what...Copy !req
2795. - he`s got to be in my office
Thursday morning before 11:00.
- It`s done.Copy !req
2796. It`s terribly important. I gotta have
a conversation with that guy—Copy !req
2797. As much as they liked him,
I mean, he wasn`t one of us.Copy !req
2798. He wasn`t ltalian. As far as they knew,
he could have talked.Copy !req
2799. Otherwise,
Stoney might still be alive.Copy !req
2800. The first one to skip
was John Nance.Copy !req
2801. He found a nice, warm,
secluded place in Costa Rica.Copy !req
2802. - He thought nobody
would find him there.Copy !req
2803. But then his kid got nabbed
by the Feds for drugs.Copy !req
2804. So, naturally,
the bosses were afraid
he`d come out of hiding...Copy !req
2805. just to save his kid
and give them all up.Copy !req
2806. So...Copy !req
2807. Where you goin`, jag-off?Copy !req
2808. But, anyway,
they all had to follow.Copy !req
2809. - Everybody went down.Copy !req
2810. Fuck you.Copy !req

2817. In a few months, they went through
all the money and all the jewels.Copy !req
2818. After they found her body...Copy !req
2819. I had a private doctor
do another autopsy.Copy !req
2820. He said they gave her
a hot dose.Copy !req

might have said about my car bombing...Copy !req
2823. it was amateur night,
you could tell.Copy !req
2824. Whoever it was, they put
the dynamite under the passenger side.Copy !req
2825. But what they didn`t know,
what nobody outside the factory knew...Copy !req
2826. was that that model car was made with
a metal plate under the driver`s seat.Copy !req
2827. It`s the only thing
that saved my life.Copy !req
2828. The bombing was never authorized,
but I suspect I know who lit the fuse.Copy !req

And so did the powers that be.Copy !req
2830. - How are you?

my guys got out on bail...Copy !req
2833. and the bosses wanted me to send
my brother Dominick out to Vegas.Copy !req
2834. Always the dollars.
Always the fuckin` dollars.Copy !req
2835. I mean, it was still way too hot
for me to even go near Vegas.Copy !req
2836. So I set up a meeting
with the guys way out in the sticks.Copy !req

around. I mean, what`s right is right.Copy !req

They had enough.Copy !req
2861. How much were they gonna take? So they
made an example of him and his brother.Copy !req
