1:13:00
Laney Jacobs, the woman who introduced me
to Radin, was tried for his murder.

1:13:05
The prosecutor outlined
a case of money and drugs.

1:13:08
And this is gonna show,
that this woman here...

1:13:12
...Laney Greenberger, had two problems
with a man by the name of Roy Radin.

1:13:16
He told the jury that Laney had asked Radin
for a finder's fee for introducing him to me.

1:13:22
When Radin refused to pay it,
Laney became irate.

1:13:26
Two weeks before his murder, Laney,
who was a part-time coke dealer...

1:13:30
...suspected Radin of stealing a large
amount of cocaine from her.

1:13:34
At this point,
Laney decided to kill him.

1:13:36
After getting into her
chauffeur-driven limousine...

1:13:41
...with her, Mr. Radin was never
seen alive again.

1:13:46
Jacobs and her accomplices were convicted
for the murder of Roy Radin.

1:13:52
Me?
Well, I wasn't even a suspect.

1:13:57
I was a tangential character
in the proceedings, at best.

1:14:03
However, the name "Evans" gets ink.
1:14:11
If you live by the sword,
know damn well you could die by it.

1:14:15
For many a decade, the sword
treated me real well. Maybe too well.

1:14:24
Popeye and Urban Cowboy
hit the screens in 1980.

1:14:28
Now, seven years later,
the only product Evans was delivering...

1:14:31
...to the mountain of Paramount
was embarrassment.

1:14:36
Ending whatever I had left
of a legacy to be...

1:14:39
...I was paid a rare visit by Richard Zimbert,
the head honcho of business affairs.

1:14:44
He walked into my office,
not a happy camper.

1:14:48
"We go back too long, Evans, and this is not
me talking. It's orders. I can't help it.

1:14:54
Do you want the truth?" Our eyes met.
I knew what he was going to say.
