but I wonder if he's having some kind
of mental breakdown.

1:02:04
He may be realizing
the consequences of his deeds.

1:02:07
- The Coopersmiths are closing in on him.
- Could he have...

1:02:10
a split personality?
1:02:12
A lot of criminals have been
known to play crafty games
when it suited their purposes.

1:02:15
I need a drink.
1:02:18
if I tell you something, do you promise
not to go off half-cocked?

1:02:22
Okay, but hurry.
I've got some big news.

1:02:25
- I found the jewels.
- What?

1:02:39
And keep me apprised, will you?
Thank you.

1:02:45
The police are on the way, thank God.
1:02:47
It's an open-and-shut case.
1:02:49
Much as I cringe at the publicity,
I'm elated at the recovery.

1:02:52
It's clear there's
so much more to this, Chris.

1:02:55
Oh, I've seen men driven to extremes
before being around big money.

1:03:00
These guys earn their living exposing...
1:03:02

" Hey, I'm on the inside.
I know why these schemes fail.

1:03:08
I won't make the same mistakes. "
1:03:10
You're saying he's cracked
from so many years of hard work?

1:03:14
He's a driven man.
Had a terrible marital experience.

1:03:19
Turned him off women, except for
the little no-threat secretaries...

1:03:22
and barflies he picks up.
1:03:24
Crushed when he caught
his wife cheating.

1:03:27
He's feeling older
and looks around and says,

1:03:29
" Hey, maybe it's time
I get mine and get out. "

Guy named Peterson
a couple of years ago tried the same.

1:03:34
Of course, he's a houseguest
at Sing Sing these days.

1:03:37
Well, I'm sure you know him
better than I do.

1:03:40
It'll resolve itself.
1:03:43
Um, Betty Ann, I spoke with Caroline.
1:03:48
- You did?
- I told her I wanted my freedom.

1:03:53
- Really?
- Isn't that fabulous?

1:03:56
It's surprising.
1:03:58
I thought you'd be
knocked off your feet.
