You see, that way, there's something
clean and wholesome about it.

:50:20
Yeah. There's something else
that's been bothering me, Ed.

:50:23
Yeah? What?
:50:24
Well, the way some of you talk so freely,
like last night.

:50:29
Aren't you afraid that someone will,
you know?

:50:31
- No, of course not.
- Why?

:50:33
The code, Paul.
The code.

:50:36
- The what?
- The code.

:50:39
"Thou shalt not snitch
on thy fellow man. "

:50:42
- Oh. Can you depend on it?
- Like a suit of armor, kid.

:50:46
In all my years in the game,
I never heard of anyone violating it.

:50:49
- Really?
- Yeah.

:50:51
- With two exceptions- your
wife's worst enemy... - Yeah?

:50:55
- and her best friend.
- Oh.

:50:57
No. I'm sorry.
One more exception.

:51:00
Your enemy-
someone who's out to get you.

:51:02
I see. Well,
what do you do about him?

:51:04
Well, firstly, of course,
you try to keep him from knowing.

:51:07
- But sometimes you can't.
- So?

:51:11
In that case,
you try to get the same thing on him.

:51:13
But what if he doesn't, uh, indulge?
:51:17
- Misdirection.
- Misdirection?

:51:19
Yeah. Like, for instance,
these two guys I knew.

:51:23
One of them sold the other
a house full of termites.

:51:26
Boy, was the other guy
out to get even.

:51:31
Behold.
The gates of paradise.

:51:45
Move it, baby!
Move it! And-

:51:52
Oh. The termite buyer.
Think. Think.

:51:55
Irving! Good to see ya!
:51:58
- I'll bet.
- Yeah.
