:07:02
What's the matter?
:07:03
I still got family there, Diz.
:07:06
When you leave, the government
punishes those you leave behind and love.

:07:10
Then are you sure you want to do this?
:07:17
I've been in jail all my life.
:07:23
Freedom's a scary thing, but...
:07:25
...I gotta get on the bird.
:07:27
Well, come on, let's do it.
:07:35
-The embassy's closed, sir.
-You better get it open.

:07:38
This is an international incident.
My Cuban friend--

:07:41
-Sir, the embassy's closed.
-Not for me. I'm Dizzy Gillespie.

:07:44
-Open the gate, Sergeant.
-Yes, sir.

:07:49
It's an honor to meet you, we got your call.
:07:52
You must be Arturo Sandoval.
:07:53
That's the second greatest
trumpet player in the world.

:08:01
Someone should be....
:08:04
-There you are.
-Good evening, gentlemen.

:08:07
I should say, good morning.
:08:11
I'm Michael Tasker.
I'm a big fan, Mr. Gillespie.

:08:15
Thank you. This is Arturo--
:08:16
Arturo Sandoval, yes, petition for asylum.
:08:20
How long's this gonna take?
:08:22
Red tape respects no boundaries.
That's an international fact of life.

:08:26
-If you'd like to--
-This is the American Embassy.

:08:28
I know you got some
apple pie around here.

:08:32
I think we can arrange something.
:08:36
-You be cool.
-Thank you, Diz.

:08:38
Enjoy. Right this way.
:08:42
Your Mr. Gillespie
is one of the few people...

:08:44
...who can open this place
in the middle of the night.

:08:47
Have a seat and I'll be back in a moment.
:08:51
Thank you.
:08:53
Coffee?
:08:55
Thank you, yes.
