:37:00
...under all the concrete
you poured into my pedestal...
:37:03
...something is crying to get out.
:37:09
What?
:37:14
You know I called Judge Walter Stern.
:37:24
Anselmo called me.
:37:30
I knew the Mafioso had called him, but
in this business, you don't trade names.
:37:35
And I called Walter.
:37:38
That's all there was to it.
:37:41
I was doing Anselmo a favor.
:37:48
Run caution lights all my life.
:37:50
This time you ran a red, and
someone cut across the intersection.
:37:54
A cop and a 6-year-old child.
:37:57
That's with me forever.
:37:59
That's not good enough.
:38:00
Not good enough?
:38:04
You think I don't know that?
:38:06
I hope so, John.
:38:07
Scares me when you call me John.
:38:09
Why's that?
:38:11
Because I...
:38:15
...I thought a minute ago
we were off to the White House.
:38:21
I thought I could feel you come aboard.
:38:23
The old menschkeit.
:38:28
Horseshit.
:38:30
Menschkeit is horseshit.
:38:33
It's 120 years of graft
and sweetheart contracts...
:38:36
...featherbeds and
inside information...
:38:38
...and everywhere people in power
gather to carve up the turf.
:38:42
That's your menschkeit.
:38:44
It's horseshit.
You know where you can put it.
:38:47
Maybe spread it over the fields.
:38:49
If we cross our fingers,
maybe a flower will grow.
:38:51
It has.
:38:54
Out of all this crap...
:38:57
...you emerged.
