-Vallenari's. Good evening.
-Hi, this is Dale McKussic.
:07:05
Mr. McKussic, I'm sorry.
It's a little noisy in here.
:07:09
Aren 't we seeing you this evening?
:07:10
I don't think
I'll make my reservation.
:07:13
I'm going to be a little late.
:07:14
How late will you be?
:07:17
I don't know.
How late is the kitchen open?
:07:50
Tell me something, Hal.
:07:52
When you asked me to help, did you
know who you were asking me to bust?
:07:56
I knew who it was.
Why didn't you bust him?
:08:00
You know that too.
:08:03
He's a friend of mine.
:08:08
I'll tell you what I heard
when I came to L.A.
:08:11
Nick won't work South Bay
because he won't bust McKussic.
:08:14
Tonight you proved that.
You not only let him walk. . .
:08:18
. . .you kicked him out and gave
him a personal escort. Why?
:08:21
Because you're predictable, Hal.
You're very predictable.
:08:27
Mac saw you coming a mile away.
:08:29
How did you know he wasn't holding?
:08:31
Was Andy Leonard?
You busted him.
:08:35
No coke. No sale.
No conspiracy to sell.
:08:39
All you've got is a conversation. . .
:08:41
. . .with a chickenshit
Century City lawyer.
:08:43
And an entrapment lawsuit.
:08:46
Mac's lawyers would make
mincemeat of you.
:08:48
I let him walk to save you
from a bad bust.
:08:54
I did you a favor.
