:04:09
- Duck, Waddell!
- Where were you when I needed you?

:04:13
- Hi, Donna.
- Hi, Meg.

:04:17
- Did somebody rob a bank?
- I wish somebody would.

:04:22
Anything new on Diaz?
:04:23
Sure, lots.
We're just not ready to discuss it yet.

:04:27
So where is everybody?
:04:29
They're all up watching the moVies.
Surveillance film. Gallagher's funeral.

:04:34
It's pretty funny.
Bob Waddell gets slugged at the end.

:04:38
- Who's Gallagher?
- A bad guy. He died before you got here.

:04:42
All the crooks showed up; we took some
pictures. Ask Bob if you can see it.

:04:48
- He's still crazy about you.
- He's a nice guy.

:04:51
I'Ve been here three years.
:04:53
Why are they interested in a guy
that's been dead that long?

:04:57
That stunt got him busted for assault.
That's all we got on Michael Gallagher.

:05:01
For those of you who are new in town,
his old man -

:05:04
- handled liquor,
did a little loan-sharking -

:05:06
- and kept the longshoremen out of Miami
for damn near 15 years.

:05:10
If he'd been aliVe,
he'd haVe been suspect number one.

:05:13
Since he's dead, he can't be involved.
Big Tommy had a stroke in '67 -

:05:18
- and brought Mike down
to run the family store.

:05:21
Word is little Mike's clean.
I don't buy it. I want to find out.

:05:25
Meersma, IRS gets his last six years.
Work it like it was a net worth case.

:05:29
I want to know every nickel he's got.
:05:32
I want to know his mortgage
and his car payments.

:05:36
Mac, you crawl over his union stuff.
Bob, the bureau gets the rest.

:05:40
Friends, neighbours, the butcher's shop.
:05:42
I want to know where he was, when Diaz
went away. Let him know we're in town.

:05:47
Hi, Bob. How come the streets aren't safe?
:05:49
- Youths. DisadVantaged youths.
- You spent all morning at the moVies?

:05:53
What movies?
:05:55
The Gallagher funeral.
Donna said you might show it to me.

:05:59
- Donna's on her way out.
- Take it easy. She didn't do anything.
