1:01:01
What are you going to do about it?
1:01:03
Sit and wait for those reporters
to walk into your office?

1:01:05
Yes, yes. I've heard that before.
1:01:08
I'm only interested in one thing.
I want some action and quick!

1:01:11
Every editor in town
is in my office this minute.

1:01:14
You'll get front page editorial
every day till something's done.

1:01:17
Our reporters can't get news
without a bodyguard.

1:01:20
I want this clear, Commissioner:
I refuse to stand the brunt

1:01:22
for the incompetence of
the Police Department!

1:01:25
If City administration can't do
anything, perhaps the State can.

1:01:27
When the Governor gets in town
this afternoon, we'll see him.

1:01:30
Find those reporters or l'll be
forced to ask for your resignation.

1:01:33
Now that's final.
1:01:40
Hello, McCreary.
Now get this straight,

1:01:43
dig up those reporters
or l'll get me another boy.

1:01:46
And that's that!
1:01:50
Captain,
1:01:52
l'm giving you 24 hours
to find those reporters.

1:01:56
If you can't, you'd better start
looking for another job.

1:01:58
And that's the works!
1:02:00
Yes, sir.
1:02:01
What is it, Murphy?
1:02:02
A young fella with
an angle on the reporter business.

1:02:05
- Come on, speak up.
- A funny thing happened.

1:02:07
I was down at the boats
and went to talk to a count,

1:02:10
when a couple of yeggs
grabbed me and put me in a car.

1:02:12
- What happened?
- They took me to the Bronx?

1:02:14
- How'd you get away?
- They stopped and l jumped out.

1:02:17
- Who were the men?
- I don't know.

1:02:19
Maybe l can tell you
something about that, lnspector.

1:02:21
When did this happen?
1:02:23
- Last Tuesday.
- That checks all right.

1:02:26
Ken and l were down
working the pier last week.

1:02:28
Dave the Dude
was meeting some people.

1:02:30
Had his whole mob with him.
We thought it was funny.

1:02:32
Dave the Dude, eh?
1:02:34
This is beginning to
look like a police department.

1:02:36
Sit down, l want to talk to you.
1:02:40
Get this straight. I ain't having
this rehearsal 'cause l like it!

1:02:43
The reception is tomorrow night.
1:02:45
You don't rehearse now,
you'll bollocks up the thing.

1:02:48
You've got your titles, speeches,
everything laid out.

1:02:51
First learn your speeches.
The judge went to a lot of trouble

1:02:54
to rig up some swell ones
and l don't want ya to blow 'em.

1:02:57
Alright, come on. Let's get going.
