1:03:01
that they didn't want anybody
makin' any waves for them.
1:03:04
You gave all the guys
in your crew a piece of that?
1:03:07
- I took care of everybody.
- Yeah?
1:03:09
That's why there was
no real organized street stuff in Vegas before I came here.
1:03:13
But how much cash
could I bury in my closet?
1:03:16
You have to understand,
and I'm sure you do...
1:03:19
that in a venture
of this kind...
1:03:21
you have to be prepared
to take some kind of loss.
1:03:23
So I put some of the money
into legitimate deals with Charlie Clark, Ace's banker.
1:03:27
You will try to push it through,
won't you, Mr. Clark?
1:03:31
- Yes.
- I'm giving you 50,000 cash.
1:03:34
Then I put some more money into
legitimate places, like my restaurant.
1:03:37
- Is that the last one?
- Yeah.
1:03:39
I had my kid brother,
Dominick, run it for me.
1:03:43
Fuckers.
1:03:49
- Here you go, guys.
- All right.
1:03:51
- Thanks a lot.
- Yeah. Enjoy. Have a good time.
1:03:53
Choke on it, motherfucker.
1:03:55
- Hey, Dom.
- How ya doin'?
1:03:57
Yeah, Nicky loved restaurants.
He was a real restaurant buff.
1:04:01
And over the years,
he always made money with it.
1:04:04
In Vegas, he had the Leaning Tower.
It was a very popular spot.
1:04:08
He had politicians, showgirls and movie
stars hanging out all over the place.
1:04:12
That show over at the Flamingo
gets better and better.
1:04:14
By the way, Sammy said, whenever
you have a minute, give him a call.
1:04:18
- Made a messenger out of you too, huh?
- Anything for a buck.
1:04:21
- He does it to everybody.
Enjoy your dinner. - Thanks.
1:04:24
But I gotta tell you, the thing Nicky
liked most was the showgirls, naturally.
1:04:27
I mean, to them,
Nicky was the movie star.
1:04:30
- You walk past me?
- Hey, this is Shelly.
1:04:33
- Hey, Shelly. How are you?
- Hi.
1:04:35
- And this is Stacy.
- Stacy.
1:04:37
- This is Nick. Wanna have dinner?
- Pleasure.
1:04:39
Let's check the kitchen first.
Excuse us one second.
1:04:43
Come on. I'll show you.
I fly stuff in fresh every day.
1:04:46
I get bread from back home.
I get fish from California.
1:04:49
And you can always tell a great kitchen
like ours because of the milk-fed veal.
1:04:53
That's the secret.
See, milk-fed veal is pure white.
1:04:56
Out here they got that pink veal.
Slide over, honey.
