I knew he was into the bookmakers
for a bundle.

1:05:04
Look, I was with him on Tuesday night
till about 12:00.

1:05:07
Then suddenly he got a phone call
and he was like a different man.

1:05:12
if It was anyone else but C.W.,
1:05:15
we wouldn't even be discussing this.
1:05:18
The jewels were in his locker.
It's an airtight case.

1:05:20
Listen, fellas,
I know you guys wanted my job,

1:05:23
but I could get 30 years
up the river for this.

1:05:26
With good behavior,
you'll be out in 20.

1:05:28
- [ Laughing ]
- I'll get you. No matter where you are.

1:05:30
I'll check every low-I. Q club in town,
and I'll find you. I'll kill you.

1:05:33
- Low I. Q Some genius.
- I'll kill these guys.

1:05:36
- Take it easy.
- I'm not one to give pious lectures,

1:05:39
but if you needed money,
you could have come to me.

1:05:41
I would have listened.
I warned you about your gambling habit.

1:05:44
Can’t you see
what a conspiracy this is?

1:05:46
They plant a footprint
and a fingerprint,

1:05:48
and the night watchman
forges my signature.

1:05:51
It's easy. And this crazy girl
who smokes opium makes up a story.

1:05:55
And Fitzgerald plants
the jewels in my apartment.

1:05:57
There's a word for people who think
everyone is conspiring against them.

1:06:00
- That's right. Perceptive.
- C.W.,

1:06:02
you tried to swallow the key to
the locker at Grand Central Station...

1:06:05
where we found the stolen goods.
1:06:07
- You got any witnesses?
- Yeah, me!

1:06:10
You gonna take your word over mine?
1:06:12
Let's get him over to the courthouse
and book him.

1:06:14
You better get a lawyer, C.W.
1:06:16
I'm shocked.
This is one of my best men.

1:06:18
You know how long I've known this guy?
Tommy, come with me.

1:06:21
Yeah, Mike, I'm right behind ya.
I'm sorry about this, C.W.

1:06:23
I'll make the arrangements.
Stick around.

1:06:43
Well, well, well.
1:06:45
if It isn't
Mr. Fast-Talkin' Investigator...

1:06:48
who got caught with his hand
in the cookie jar.

1:06:51
Did I really throw you out of bed?
1:06:53
Why? You planning on using
the insanity defense?

1:06:56
Listen, honey, I gotta get some help,
and you're gonna help me.
