He's got lots of friends. His family
and their money go back many years.
1:18:04
Friends vote, family and money votes.
1:18:08
That's important to me and you.
1:18:10
If you'll think about our little problem
along them lines...
1:18:16
and you'll forgive me for saying it...
1:18:18
maybe he did not deserve to be fired.
1:18:21
He knew about our getting hit...
1:18:23
on three big machines in a row,
and he did nothing about it.
1:18:26
Either he was in on it
or, forgive me, he was too dumb to see it.
1:18:30
Either way, I cannot have
a man like that working here.
1:18:33
Before we point the dirty end
of the stick at old Don...
1:18:36
we better be sure
we can prove them charges.
1:18:39
Believe me, if I could prove it,
he'd be under arrest.
1:18:44
Are we certain that you want
the Gaming Control Board...
1:18:48
eyeballing your record
and your gangster pals like Nicky?
1:18:52
I think you're way out of line
talking to me like that.
1:18:54
What you're saying is libellous. You're
in no position to challenge my expertise.
1:18:59
I went way out of my way
to be helpful and courteous to that kid.
1:19:02
He's weak. He's incompetent.
He jeopardises the whole place.
1:19:05
There's not much more I can do for him.
1:19:07
You have got me there.
1:19:10
Old Don is as useless as tits on a boar.
1:19:13
[Pat coughs]
1:19:14
But he is my brother-in-law...
1:19:17
and I would look on it
as a personal favour...
1:19:20
if you'd think some more
on hiring him back.
1:19:23
I can't do that.
1:19:25
I appreciate the fact
that he's your brother-in-law.
1:19:27
I do want to help you
and I like to do favours.
1:19:30
And I know who you are.
But I cannot do that.
1:19:34
Could there be any position...
1:19:38
farther down the trough?
1:19:42
I'm sorry. I can't do anything.
1:19:44
He's too incompetent.
The bottom line is he cannot be trusted.
1:19:47
[Phone ringing]
1:19:50
SAM: Okay, thanks a lot.
1:19:54
That's it. I'm sorry.
1:19:57
Mr. Rothstein,
your people never will understand...
