1
00:01:52,529 --> 00:01:54,440
Ed: Yeah, I worked
in a barber shop,

2
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,606
but I never considered
myself a barber.

3
00:01:58,785 --> 00:02:01,401
I stumbled into it. Well, married
into it, more precisely.

4
00:02:01,496 --> 00:02:03,182
Frank: They were trying
to expand the empire.

5
00:02:03,206 --> 00:02:04,662
Ed: It wasn't my establishment.

6
00:02:04,750 --> 00:02:06,661
Like the fella says,
I only work here.

7
00:02:06,877 --> 00:02:10,244
They even had French explorers, which
the French are not known for exploring.

8
00:02:10,339 --> 00:02:11,954
Ed: The dump was
200 feet square,

9
00:02:12,382 --> 00:02:14,794
with three chairs,
or stations, as we call 'em,

10
00:02:15,218 --> 00:02:17,209
even though there are only
two of us working.

11
00:02:18,180 --> 00:02:19,841
But this is my point.

12
00:02:20,182 --> 00:02:23,640
My point is that these traders and
trappers would come to this country

13
00:02:23,769 --> 00:02:26,055
and get their pelts
and their gold ingots...

14
00:02:26,229 --> 00:02:28,936
Ed: Frank raffo, my brother-in-law,
was the principal barber.

15
00:02:29,441 --> 00:02:32,399
Man, could he talk. There was a craze
on beaver hats in Paris at the time.

16
00:02:32,736 --> 00:02:36,274
Maybe if you're 11 or 12 years old,
frank's got an interesting point of view,

17
00:02:36,698 --> 00:02:38,234
but sometimes
it got on my nerves.

18
00:02:38,700 --> 00:02:40,315
Not that I complained, mind you.

19
00:02:41,078 --> 00:02:43,239
Like I said,
he was the principal barber.

20
00:02:44,498 --> 00:02:46,739
Frank's father August.
They called him guzzi.

21
00:02:47,376 --> 00:02:49,913
Had worked the heads up in
Santa Rosa for 35 years

22
00:02:50,003 --> 00:02:52,585
until his ticker stopped in the
middle of a junior flat top.

23
00:02:53,632 --> 00:02:55,588
He left the shop to
Frankie free and clear,

24
00:02:56,385 --> 00:02:58,501
and that seemed to satisfy
all of frank's ambitions,

25
00:02:58,970 --> 00:03:00,631
cutting the hair
and chewing the fat.

26
00:03:02,265 --> 00:03:04,005
Me, I don't talk much.

27
00:03:09,398 --> 00:03:10,763
I just cut the hair.

28
00:03:19,533 --> 00:03:22,525
It says here that the Russians
exploded an a-bomb...

29
00:03:22,619 --> 00:03:24,951
And there's not a damn thing
we can do about it.

30
00:03:26,456 --> 00:03:27,662
Uh-huh.

31
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:30,115
How do you like them apples?

32
00:03:36,133 --> 00:03:39,751
Ed: Now, being a barber is a lot
like being a bar man or a soda jerk.

33
00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:42,711
There's not much to it once
you've learned the basic moves.

34
00:03:43,807 --> 00:03:45,889
For the kids, there's the
butch, or the heinie,

35
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:47,640
the flat top, the Ivy,

36
00:03:48,270 --> 00:03:51,103
the crew, the vanguard,
the junior contour...

37
00:03:51,648 --> 00:03:54,390
And occasionally
the executive contour.

38
00:03:56,319 --> 00:03:58,480
I lived in a little bungalow
on napa street.

39
00:04:00,157 --> 00:04:01,877
The place was okay, I guess.

40
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:04,650
Had an electric icebox,
a gas hearth...

41
00:04:05,287 --> 00:04:07,152
And a garbage grinder
built into the sink.

42
00:04:08,415 --> 00:04:09,780
You might say I had it made.

43
00:04:10,709 --> 00:04:12,745
Oh, yeah,
there was one other thing.

44
00:04:15,172 --> 00:04:17,288
Doris kept the books
at nirdlinger's,

45
00:04:17,507 --> 00:04:19,543
a small department store
on main street.

46
00:04:20,010 --> 00:04:22,342
Doris liked the work,
accounting.

47
00:04:22,679 --> 00:04:24,419
She liked knowing
where everything stood.

48
00:04:25,474 --> 00:04:28,511
And she got a 10% employee
discount on whatever she wanted.

49
00:04:29,352 --> 00:04:33,265
Nylon stockings,
makeup and perfume.

50
00:04:35,525 --> 00:04:37,481
Doris and I went to church
once a week.

51
00:04:39,196 --> 00:04:40,857
Usually Tuesday night.

52
00:04:41,656 --> 00:04:43,942
Man: B-9.

53
00:04:46,369 --> 00:04:48,701
1-29

54
00:04:48,789 --> 00:04:50,780
ed: Doris wasn't big
on divine worship,

55
00:04:51,917 --> 00:04:54,124
1-22. And I doubt if she
believed in life everlasting.

56
00:04:55,170 --> 00:04:58,128
She'd most likely tell you that
our reward is on this earth,

57
00:04:58,215 --> 00:05:00,422
and bingo is probably
the extent of it.

58
00:05:01,218 --> 00:05:03,800
B-7. Watch your card, honey.

59
00:05:04,971 --> 00:05:06,291
Ed: I wasn't crazy
about the game,

60
00:05:06,348 --> 00:05:08,885
but, I don't know,
it made her happy,

61
00:05:09,726 --> 00:05:11,637
and I found
the setting peaceful.

62
00:05:12,562 --> 00:05:13,927
Jesus. Bingo.

63
00:05:14,105 --> 00:05:15,311
Bingo!

64
00:05:16,107 --> 00:05:18,439
Doris's boss, big Dave Brewster,

65
00:05:18,985 --> 00:05:22,193
was married to Ann nirdlinger,
the department store heiress.

66
00:05:23,073 --> 00:05:24,904
Tonight, they were
coming over for dinner.

67
00:05:25,283 --> 00:05:26,443
As Doris said,

68
00:05:27,077 --> 00:05:29,318
we were entertaining.

69
00:05:32,415 --> 00:05:34,406
Me, I don't like entertaining.

70
00:05:37,879 --> 00:05:39,585
How you doin', ed? Okay.

71
00:05:39,923 --> 00:05:41,163
Take your coat, Ann?

72
00:05:41,591 --> 00:05:44,551
Big Dave: The japs had us pinned down
on buna for somethin' like six weeks.

73
00:05:45,220 --> 00:05:47,836
I gotta tell ya, I thought we had
it tough, but we had supply.

74
00:05:48,974 --> 00:05:52,387
The japs were eatin' bugs
and grubs and thistles.

75
00:05:53,311 --> 00:05:55,393
Anyway, one day
we bust off the beach...

76
00:05:56,106 --> 00:05:59,598
And we find Arnie bragg,
this kid missin' on recon.

77
00:06:00,402 --> 00:06:02,768
The japs had eaten
the son of a bitch.

78
00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:05,145
If you'll pardon the, uh...

79
00:06:06,032 --> 00:06:09,991
Anyway, he was a scrawny, pimply
kid, nothin' to write home about.

80
00:06:10,078 --> 00:06:11,409
I mean, I never woulda,
you know.

81
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:15,121
So, what do I say, honey?

82
00:06:16,126 --> 00:06:18,663
What do I say
when I don't like dinner?

83
00:06:19,254 --> 00:06:20,414
Come on. What do I say?

84
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,046
I say, "Arnie bragg, again?"

85
00:06:27,888 --> 00:06:29,503
Big Dave: "Arnie bragg, again?"

86
00:06:36,396 --> 00:06:37,636
Were you in the service, ed?

87
00:06:37,981 --> 00:06:39,187
No, Dave, I wasn't.

88
00:06:39,441 --> 00:06:42,649
Ed was 4-f on account
of his fallen arches.

89
00:06:47,657 --> 00:06:50,569
Ah, man. That's tough.
That's... that's tough.

90
00:06:55,957 --> 00:06:59,916
Ed: Yeah, I guess Doris liked
all that he-man stuff.

91
00:07:00,962 --> 00:07:05,331
Sometimes I had the feeling that she and big
Dave were a lot closer than they let on.

92
00:07:06,301 --> 00:07:09,088
The signs were all there, plain enough.

93
00:07:09,804 --> 00:07:11,419
I said I don't drink
in the office.

94
00:07:11,514 --> 00:07:13,425
Doris: I've seen you
take a drink or two.

95
00:07:13,516 --> 00:07:14,881
You're not supposed
to see nothin'.

96
00:07:18,897 --> 00:07:21,354
Ed: Not that I was gonna
prance about it, mind you.

97
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:23,856
It's a free country.

98
00:07:25,862 --> 00:07:27,568
Holdin' down the porch area, ed?

99
00:07:28,281 --> 00:07:30,237
That's some wife you got there.

100
00:07:30,325 --> 00:07:31,531
Yeah.

101
00:07:32,327 --> 00:07:33,817
She's a rare one.

102
00:07:36,873 --> 00:07:38,283
So, how's business, Dave?

103
00:07:38,375 --> 00:07:40,411
Oh, uh, couldn't be better.

104
00:07:41,378 --> 00:07:43,539
These are boom times
in retailin', ed.

105
00:07:44,464 --> 00:07:46,750
We're openin' another store
over there on Garson,

106
00:07:46,841 --> 00:07:48,206
big Dave's annex.

107
00:07:48,301 --> 00:07:49,962
Now, this is strictly
haberdashery.

108
00:07:50,136 --> 00:07:53,628
It's casual wear, pajamas, ladies'
undergarments and foundations,

109
00:07:53,723 --> 00:07:55,054
that type of thing.

110
00:07:57,352 --> 00:08:01,061
As a matter of fact, I'm thinkin'
of makin' Doris the comptroller.

111
00:08:05,443 --> 00:08:07,380
Listen, when the annex opens
up, you gotta stop by.

112
00:08:07,404 --> 00:08:10,567
Maybe we can update your suit
a little bit, huh?

113
00:08:14,911 --> 00:08:16,617
'Course, you're in
the smock all day.

114
00:08:18,873 --> 00:08:20,409
Where do you get
those things, anyway?

115
00:08:22,127 --> 00:08:24,083
Specialty store
down in Sacramento.

116
00:08:25,714 --> 00:08:26,920
On.

117
00:08:35,890 --> 00:08:37,551
Frank: You tie your own flies.

118
00:08:37,642 --> 00:08:40,884
I mean, if you're really
serious, you tie your own flies.

119
00:08:41,271 --> 00:08:42,556
You do, uh...

120
00:08:42,856 --> 00:08:44,687
I know. It's meticulous. I know.

121
00:08:45,275 --> 00:08:47,607
People say, "hey, you can
buy flies at the store."

122
00:08:48,069 --> 00:08:50,560
The point is, there's a
certain art to the process.

123
00:08:51,322 --> 00:08:53,404
The point is not
merely to provide.

124
00:08:53,783 --> 00:08:57,867
Let me point out, these fish are
not as dumb as you might think.

125
00:08:57,996 --> 00:09:00,362
Yeah? Sure. Go to the store.
Go there.

126
00:09:00,457 --> 00:09:03,949
Describe to the man where you
will be fishing and for what,

127
00:09:04,044 --> 00:09:07,127
and then you might as well
go ahead and have the man

128
00:09:07,213 --> 00:09:09,329
sell you the goddamned fish, ed.

129
00:09:09,424 --> 00:09:12,916
My point is, this is a man who knows
nothing, no matter how much you tell him.

130
00:09:15,638 --> 00:09:17,003
Yeah.

131
00:09:17,807 --> 00:09:19,388
Okay.

132
00:09:19,809 --> 00:09:21,345
Who gets the privilege?

133
00:09:21,978 --> 00:09:24,185
We're just closing, friend. Oh.

134
00:09:24,522 --> 00:09:25,762
Happy days.

135
00:09:26,316 --> 00:09:29,308
I wish I was doing well enough
to turn away business.

136
00:09:29,694 --> 00:09:30,934
What's the problem, friend?

137
00:09:31,196 --> 00:09:33,938
This is a business establishment
with posted hours.

138
00:09:34,032 --> 00:09:35,488
More power to ya, brother.

139
00:09:35,700 --> 00:09:37,736
The public be damned.
Frank: Hey.

140
00:09:37,994 --> 00:09:41,202
I'll take care of him. You go ahead, frank.
Have a seat, mister.

141
00:09:42,165 --> 00:09:44,747
You sure, Eddie?
Yeah, yeah, go ahead.

142
00:09:47,921 --> 00:09:49,536
In your ear, mister.

143
00:09:52,467 --> 00:09:54,924
Oh, those fiery mediterraneans.

144
00:09:56,346 --> 00:09:59,088
Uh, say, uh,
not so fast there, brother.

145
00:10:02,102 --> 00:10:03,592
Pretty good, eh?

146
00:10:03,686 --> 00:10:05,176
Fools even the experts.

147
00:10:05,313 --> 00:10:06,849
100% human hair...

148
00:10:07,357 --> 00:10:10,099
Handcrafted by
Jacques of San Francisco.

149
00:10:10,735 --> 00:10:13,192
I'd hate to have to tell you
what I paid for it. Mmm.

150
00:10:13,947 --> 00:10:18,361
Yeah, it's a nice rug. I'm payin'
it down on the installment plan.

151
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:21,992
A lot of folks live
with the pate exposed.

152
00:10:22,705 --> 00:10:24,616
They say the dames
think it's sexy,

153
00:10:25,208 --> 00:10:28,075
but for my money
it's just not good groomin'.

154
00:10:28,419 --> 00:10:31,377
And groomin', my friend, is probably
the most important thing in business.

155
00:10:32,215 --> 00:10:34,706
After personality, of course.

156
00:10:35,718 --> 00:10:37,709
Creighton tolliver.
Pleased to know ya.

157
00:10:39,222 --> 00:10:40,462
Ed crane.

158
00:10:41,724 --> 00:10:43,385
So, what brings you
to Santa Rosa?

159
00:10:43,601 --> 00:10:46,718
A goose, my friend.
I was chasin' a wild goose.

160
00:10:49,065 --> 00:10:50,896
Ed, have you ever heard
of venture capital?

161
00:10:51,568 --> 00:10:54,025
Risk money. Very speculative.

162
00:10:54,571 --> 00:10:57,062
Except that in certain
situations it's not, see.

163
00:11:00,243 --> 00:11:01,904
Well, I make the haul up

164
00:11:02,245 --> 00:11:04,827
and this lousy so-and-so
tells me

165
00:11:04,914 --> 00:11:07,030
that the situation has changed.

166
00:11:07,167 --> 00:11:10,580
All of his capital's tied up
in expansion plans of his own.

167
00:11:10,837 --> 00:11:13,169
Thank you, mother.
Pop goes another bubble.

168
00:11:13,590 --> 00:11:16,206
It's only the biggest business
opportunity since Henry Ford,

169
00:11:16,301 --> 00:11:18,212
and I can't seem
to interest a soul.

170
00:11:19,262 --> 00:11:20,342
Is that right?

171
00:11:20,555 --> 00:11:22,045
It's called dry cleaning.

172
00:11:23,975 --> 00:11:26,808
You heard me right, brother.
Dry cleaning.

173
00:11:26,895 --> 00:11:29,056
Wash without water.

174
00:11:29,731 --> 00:11:32,939
No suds. No tumble.
No stress on the clothes.

175
00:11:33,443 --> 00:11:35,604
It's all done
with chemicals, friend.

176
00:11:35,820 --> 00:11:38,778
And here's the capper...
No shrinkage.

177
00:11:40,366 --> 00:11:41,526
That's right.

178
00:11:41,993 --> 00:11:43,449
Dry cleaning.

179
00:11:43,661 --> 00:11:47,028
All I need is $10,000
to open up the first store.

180
00:11:47,165 --> 00:11:51,750
Then I use its cash flow
to finance another, and so on,

181
00:11:51,836 --> 00:11:55,124
leapfrog, bootstrap
myself to a whole chain.

182
00:11:55,924 --> 00:11:58,290
Well, me and a partner.

183
00:11:59,135 --> 00:12:00,500
Cleanliness, friend.

184
00:12:01,638 --> 00:12:04,801
There's money in it. There's a future.
There's room to grow.

185
00:12:05,642 --> 00:12:08,634
Say, that looks pretty good.

186
00:12:09,062 --> 00:12:10,723
Let's see it
with the hairpiece on.

187
00:12:23,284 --> 00:12:24,615
Ed: Dry cleaning.

188
00:12:26,829 --> 00:12:28,785
Was I crazy
to be thinking about it?

189
00:12:30,250 --> 00:12:34,163
Was he a huckster or
opportunity, the real McCoy?

190
00:12:38,091 --> 00:12:41,504
My first instinct was, “no,
no, the whole idea was nuts.”

191
00:12:42,553 --> 00:12:46,045
But maybe that was the instinct that
kept me locked up in the barber shop,

192
00:12:46,474 --> 00:12:49,341
nose against the exit, afraid
to try turning the knob.

193
00:12:51,187 --> 00:12:52,927
Honey? Hmm?

194
00:12:54,107 --> 00:12:55,643
Shave my legs, will ya?

195
00:13:01,489 --> 00:13:03,275
Ed: What if I could
get the money?

196
00:13:35,606 --> 00:13:37,221
It was clean.

197
00:13:38,234 --> 00:13:39,849
No water.

198
00:13:41,404 --> 00:13:42,689
Chemicals.

199
00:13:47,243 --> 00:13:48,574
Gimme a drag.

200
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:55,660
Mmm.

201
00:14:01,674 --> 00:14:02,959
Love ya, honey.

202
00:14:06,596 --> 00:14:08,427
Tolliver: What you...
Uh, come in.

203
00:14:10,099 --> 00:14:12,806
Okay, yeah.
I'll see you tomorrow.

204
00:14:15,438 --> 00:14:17,224
Oh. I thought
you were the Porter.

205
00:14:17,732 --> 00:14:18,732
Can I help ya?

206
00:14:19,776 --> 00:14:20,891
I'm ed.

207
00:14:21,736 --> 00:14:23,067
Ed crane.

208
00:14:24,989 --> 00:14:27,275
Um, I cut your hair today.

209
00:14:29,285 --> 00:14:30,365
I'm the barber.

210
00:14:31,329 --> 00:14:32,819
Jesus, yeah. The barber.

211
00:14:33,498 --> 00:14:35,534
I didn't recognize you
without the smock.

212
00:14:36,209 --> 00:14:38,245
Did I leave somethin'
at the shop?

213
00:14:38,461 --> 00:14:40,122
No. No, it's nothing like that.

214
00:14:40,630 --> 00:14:44,088
Um, I might be interested
in that business proposition.

215
00:14:47,637 --> 00:14:48,637
You got the dough?

216
00:14:49,472 --> 00:14:50,837
Well, I can get it.

217
00:14:51,391 --> 00:14:53,723
Come in. Come in!

218
00:14:53,851 --> 00:14:56,388
Sit down over there. Coffee?

219
00:14:56,479 --> 00:14:57,639
No.

220
00:14:57,855 --> 00:15:00,517
Well, sit down, make
yourself comfortable.

221
00:15:03,111 --> 00:15:04,647
So, tell me... sure.

222
00:15:04,862 --> 00:15:09,822
Other than putting up the money, exactly
what would you want the partner to...

223
00:15:10,118 --> 00:15:11,324
Do?

224
00:15:11,828 --> 00:15:13,284
Hell, nothin'.

225
00:15:13,496 --> 00:15:16,363
Well, you're gonna want to
keep tabs on your investment,

226
00:15:16,457 --> 00:15:17,788
the running of the business,

227
00:15:17,875 --> 00:15:20,116
but I'm looking for
a silent partner.

228
00:15:20,670 --> 00:15:24,709
I've done the research, I've contacted
the vendors. The deal is set.

229
00:15:25,383 --> 00:15:28,420
Disappear, if you'd like.
Check in whenever you want.

230
00:15:29,887 --> 00:15:32,344
I want the dough.
I don't take attendance.

231
00:15:32,932 --> 00:15:36,174
And how do we share the...
50-50, straight down the line.

232
00:15:36,269 --> 00:15:38,681
You and me.
Finance and expertise.

233
00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:42,396
So, you got the
dough then, do ya?

234
00:15:42,775 --> 00:15:44,140
I can have it in a week.

235
00:15:45,736 --> 00:15:47,522
The barber.

236
00:15:48,448 --> 00:15:51,360
Well, I thought this trip
was gonna be a bust.

237
00:15:52,243 --> 00:15:55,451
Just shows to go ya,
when one door slams shut,

238
00:15:55,538 --> 00:15:56,869
another one opens.

239
00:15:57,165 --> 00:15:59,531
Here's to you, uh...

240
00:16:01,252 --> 00:16:02,742
Ed.

241
00:16:06,215 --> 00:16:07,421
Mmm.

242
00:16:08,217 --> 00:16:09,548
Ah.

243
00:16:13,723 --> 00:16:15,634
Uh...

244
00:16:29,405 --> 00:16:30,895
Was that a pass?

245
00:16:32,241 --> 00:16:33,572
Maybe.

246
00:16:34,785 --> 00:16:36,400
Well, you're
out of line, mister.

247
00:16:38,456 --> 00:16:39,616
Not a problem.

248
00:16:40,458 --> 00:16:41,573
Way out of line.

249
00:16:42,585 --> 00:16:43,825
Right.

250
00:16:44,128 --> 00:16:45,413
Strictly business.

251
00:16:48,257 --> 00:16:49,417
Okay.

252
00:17:00,770 --> 00:17:02,681
Ed: I sent it to Dave
the next morning.

253
00:17:03,689 --> 00:17:04,769
Then I waited.

254
00:17:25,962 --> 00:17:28,123
Frank? Huh?

255
00:17:31,092 --> 00:17:32,377
This hair.

256
00:17:33,970 --> 00:17:35,130
Yeah?

257
00:17:36,264 --> 00:17:37,470
You ever wonder about it?

258
00:17:39,141 --> 00:17:40,256
What do you mean?

259
00:17:41,769 --> 00:17:42,929
I don't know.

260
00:17:44,313 --> 00:17:45,473
How it keeps on coming.

261
00:17:47,942 --> 00:17:49,432
It just keeps growing.

262
00:17:50,236 --> 00:17:52,693
Yeah. Lucky for us, huh, pal?

263
00:17:53,114 --> 00:17:55,150
No, I mean,

264
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,406
it keeps growing,

265
00:17:58,619 --> 00:18:00,155
and it's part of us.

266
00:18:02,707 --> 00:18:04,698
And then we cut it off
and throw it away.

267
00:18:06,377 --> 00:18:09,244
Come on, Eddie.
You're gonna scare the kid.

268
00:18:17,638 --> 00:18:19,469
Okay, bud, you're through.

269
00:18:34,071 --> 00:18:36,528
I'm gonna take this hair
and throw it out in the dirt.

270
00:18:37,867 --> 00:18:38,982
What?

271
00:18:41,037 --> 00:18:42,868
I'm gonna mingle it
with common house dirt.

272
00:18:46,751 --> 00:18:48,912
What the hell
are you talking about?

273
00:18:52,632 --> 00:18:54,042
I don't know. Skip it.

274
00:19:04,268 --> 00:19:05,383
Ed, gimme a zip.

275
00:19:06,395 --> 00:19:08,351
Ed: Where you going? Me?

276
00:19:08,731 --> 00:19:11,143
Us. The party at nirdlinger's.

277
00:19:11,233 --> 00:19:12,564
I told you last week.

278
00:19:13,110 --> 00:19:15,647
The Christmas push.
Oh, yeah. Right.

279
00:19:17,657 --> 00:19:19,067
Come on, get ready.

280
00:19:19,408 --> 00:19:20,739
It's important.

281
00:19:20,910 --> 00:19:23,447
Nah, you go ahead.
I'm not big on parties.

282
00:19:24,288 --> 00:19:25,573
Oh, don't be a grump.

283
00:19:25,790 --> 00:19:26,950
Gimme a zip.

284
00:19:56,487 --> 00:19:58,603
Hey, ain't you in ladies' wear?

285
00:19:59,740 --> 00:20:03,107
Huh? Haven't I seen you
up in ladies' wear?

286
00:20:03,786 --> 00:20:05,651
I don't work here. My wife does.

287
00:20:05,913 --> 00:20:08,655
Uh-huh. Whew.
That's some beat, huh?

288
00:20:09,291 --> 00:20:10,872
Yeah. Oh!

289
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:12,916
Check out the rack
on that broad in the angora.

290
00:20:13,003 --> 00:20:14,003
Whoo!

291
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,622
Ed, can I talk to you? Sure.

292
00:20:19,802 --> 00:20:21,793
Come in.

293
00:20:25,558 --> 00:20:27,344
Oh, sit down. Sit down.

294
00:20:30,521 --> 00:20:32,386
Souvenired it off a jap
in new Guinea.

295
00:20:36,485 --> 00:20:39,818
Guess you're wonderin'
what Doris was so hot about.

296
00:20:45,786 --> 00:20:46,901
Havanas.

297
00:20:48,164 --> 00:20:49,495
My private stock.

298
00:20:51,417 --> 00:20:52,623
Romeo and Juliet.

299
00:21:12,021 --> 00:21:13,227
Ed, I...

300
00:21:18,402 --> 00:21:19,733
What is it, Dave?

301
00:21:25,201 --> 00:21:26,361
Ed, I've been weak.

302
00:21:26,660 --> 00:21:29,402
I've been weak. The...

303
00:21:31,707 --> 00:21:33,072
You're gonna burn yourself.

304
00:21:35,169 --> 00:21:37,205
Thanks.

305
00:21:42,259 --> 00:21:43,419
Oh, Jesus.

306
00:21:47,681 --> 00:21:49,421
I've been carryin' on
with a married woman.

307
00:21:51,727 --> 00:21:52,887
No one you know.

308
00:21:54,188 --> 00:21:55,519
And now the...

309
00:21:56,607 --> 00:21:58,347
The chickens are
comin' home to roost.

310
00:21:59,401 --> 00:22:00,686
I got a note.

311
00:22:01,862 --> 00:22:03,398
A blackmail note, you know.

312
00:22:03,948 --> 00:22:05,734
"Come across,
or everybody knows."

313
00:22:08,536 --> 00:22:10,276
I guess you know what
that would do to me.

314
00:22:14,917 --> 00:22:16,578
I guess that would be
pretty awkward.

315
00:22:16,794 --> 00:22:17,909
"Awkward"?

316
00:22:18,504 --> 00:22:20,210
Yeah. Yeah.

317
00:22:21,423 --> 00:22:23,254
Ann would throw me
right out on my keister.

318
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,923
I mean, it's her... it's her
family's store, ed. It's her store.

319
00:22:28,138 --> 00:22:30,470
I serve at the indulgence
of the goddamn ownership.

320
00:22:33,435 --> 00:22:34,925
The lady's husband would know.

321
00:22:39,608 --> 00:22:41,098
How much do they want, Dave?

322
00:22:41,485 --> 00:22:42,816
Ten thousand dollars.

323
00:22:43,529 --> 00:22:46,441
I don't know what to do, ed.
I don't know what I can do.

324
00:22:47,950 --> 00:22:49,315
You know,

325
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:51,825
I know who
the son of a bitch is.

326
00:22:55,624 --> 00:22:58,286
You know... who "who" 1s?

327
00:22:58,627 --> 00:23:00,959
The son of a bitch. The blackmailer.
I know who he is.

328
00:23:01,964 --> 00:23:05,001
It's no one you know. It's a
businessman from Sacramento.

329
00:23:05,092 --> 00:23:06,457
A goddamn pansy, ed.

330
00:23:09,471 --> 00:23:12,258
Tried to rope me
into some crackpot scheme.

331
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,440
I heard him out, then I
told him to go to hell.

332
00:23:15,644 --> 00:23:18,807
The very next day, the very next day
I get a note, the blackmail note,

333
00:23:18,981 --> 00:23:21,347
asking me for the same amount
of money he asked me for.

334
00:23:21,525 --> 00:23:23,481
The very next day.
Ten thousand dollars.

335
00:23:27,072 --> 00:23:29,028
How did he know that
you were seein' the woman?

336
00:23:29,116 --> 00:23:33,610
He stayed at the hotel that I went
to with the lady in question.

337
00:23:33,704 --> 00:23:35,319
He must've seen us.

338
00:23:37,041 --> 00:23:38,326
Oh, Jesus.

339
00:23:39,710 --> 00:23:41,951
I don't know what to do.
I don't know what to do.

340
00:23:50,888 --> 00:23:53,595
I don't know what to do.

341
00:23:54,934 --> 00:23:56,140
Dave.

342
00:24:05,819 --> 00:24:07,525
Why don't you
just pay him, Dave?

343
00:24:07,821 --> 00:24:09,903
'Cause that's my
capitalization on the annex.

344
00:24:10,157 --> 00:24:11,863
That's my operation.

345
00:24:14,286 --> 00:24:15,867
Christ almighty, ed.

346
00:24:16,288 --> 00:24:19,451
That's what I was just
talkin' to Doris about down there...

347
00:24:19,541 --> 00:24:22,704
A way to get the money from the
store that we could hide from Ann.

348
00:24:24,755 --> 00:24:27,371
Doris, she was, she was pretty
hot about that, god bless her.

349
00:24:28,842 --> 00:24:30,207
Embezzlin', ed.

350
00:24:31,303 --> 00:24:33,385
Embezzlin' from
my own goddamn wife.

351
00:24:39,061 --> 00:24:40,346
I'm sorry.

352
00:24:43,107 --> 00:24:44,438
I'm sorry.

353
00:24:46,235 --> 00:24:47,475
It's okay.

354
00:24:59,415 --> 00:25:01,531
Ed: In a way,
I felt bad for big Dave.

355
00:25:02,459 --> 00:25:05,326
I knew that ten grand was going
to pinch him where it hurt,

356
00:25:06,755 --> 00:25:10,794
but Doris was two-timing me and I guess
somewhere that pinched a little too.

357
00:26:06,690 --> 00:26:07,805
That was pretty.

358
00:26:10,611 --> 00:26:11,942
Did you make that up?

359
00:26:12,696 --> 00:26:13,856
Oh, no.

360
00:26:14,323 --> 00:26:16,609
No, that was written
by Ludwig Van Beethoven.

361
00:26:22,581 --> 00:26:24,037
Well, it was quite something.

362
00:26:24,500 --> 00:26:27,037
Yeah, he wrote some
beautiful piano sonatas.

363
00:26:28,587 --> 00:26:30,123
That was really something.

364
00:26:35,511 --> 00:26:36,671
I'm ed crane.

365
00:26:36,970 --> 00:26:38,676
I know who you are, Mr. crane.

366
00:26:38,889 --> 00:26:41,569
My father used to take me with him
when he went to get his hair cut.

367
00:26:42,476 --> 00:26:43,591
Walter abundas?

368
00:26:44,686 --> 00:26:45,892
Oh, yeah, sure. Walter.

369
00:26:47,523 --> 00:26:48,854
Yeah, I'm Rachel abundas.

370
00:26:49,608 --> 00:26:51,018
But everyone calls me birdy.

371
00:26:52,861 --> 00:26:54,476
I'm sorry.
I just didn't remember.

372
00:26:55,030 --> 00:26:56,361
Oh, no, it's okay.

373
00:26:56,990 --> 00:27:00,699
I mean, you can't expect to remember every
skinny girl who comes in with her dad.

374
00:27:08,961 --> 00:27:10,826
So, you don't like
that music out there?

375
00:27:11,588 --> 00:27:12,873
I mean, not really.

376
00:27:14,216 --> 00:27:15,877
I'm not big
on music, ordinarily.

377
00:27:17,136 --> 00:27:18,376
Doris: Ed.

378
00:27:31,441 --> 00:27:32,851
What a knucklehead.

379
00:27:34,069 --> 00:27:35,559
Who? Dave.

380
00:27:37,573 --> 00:27:39,109
How's that? Ugh...

381
00:27:40,075 --> 00:27:41,440
Money problems.

382
00:27:41,743 --> 00:27:43,529
He's thinking about
canceling the annex.

383
00:27:45,330 --> 00:27:46,570
So?

384
00:27:47,833 --> 00:27:50,074
That means
I don't run nirdlinger's.

385
00:27:51,795 --> 00:27:53,035
Mmm.

386
00:27:55,966 --> 00:27:57,547
What a knucklehead.

387
00:28:03,432 --> 00:28:05,013
Ed: Big Dave did it, though.

388
00:28:11,064 --> 00:28:13,271
I sent a note telling him
where to drop the money.

389
00:28:16,111 --> 00:28:17,111
And he did.

390
00:28:17,362 --> 00:28:18,602
He came across.

391
00:28:57,986 --> 00:28:59,271
Yeah. Good!

392
00:28:59,488 --> 00:29:02,275
How are ya? Come in.
I got everything organized.

393
00:29:02,824 --> 00:29:04,314
How you doin'? You got a check?

394
00:29:05,494 --> 00:29:07,155
Cash. Cash?

395
00:29:08,497 --> 00:29:11,455
Usually these kinds of things
are done with a bank draft,

396
00:29:11,541 --> 00:29:12,997
but cash, that's fine.

397
00:29:13,669 --> 00:29:15,034
It's all the same in the end.

398
00:29:17,381 --> 00:29:18,712
Dough is dough, huh?

399
00:29:21,176 --> 00:29:22,382
Whoa, Nellie.

400
00:29:24,554 --> 00:29:26,090
I got the paperwork here.

401
00:29:26,473 --> 00:29:27,883
Partnership papers.

402
00:29:28,308 --> 00:29:29,718
They reflect our agreement.

403
00:29:30,269 --> 00:29:31,679
50-50 on the net.

404
00:29:32,229 --> 00:29:36,643
I provide professional services,
you provide the capital.

405
00:29:37,651 --> 00:29:40,017
I'm gonna give you a receipt
on the dough here.

406
00:29:40,862 --> 00:29:44,104
Uh, pretty straightforward. I don't know
whether you wanna show it to a lawyer.

407
00:29:44,866 --> 00:29:46,026
No, that's okay.

408
00:29:46,243 --> 00:29:48,154
Yeah. Screw 'em, right?

409
00:29:49,454 --> 00:29:52,537
Pay them to tangle it up, then you
have to pay them to untangle it...

410
00:29:52,791 --> 00:29:53,951
What's the point?

411
00:29:54,042 --> 00:29:56,033
Now, you just give me
a second, here...

412
00:29:56,128 --> 00:29:58,995
I'll give
you a receipt on the...

413
00:30:00,048 --> 00:30:02,209
Whoa, Nellie.

414
00:30:02,718 --> 00:30:04,629
Okay, one thing
we didn't talk about was,

415
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:08,804
I am thinking about calling
the place tolliver's.

416
00:30:09,057 --> 00:30:10,342
After me, you know.

417
00:30:10,892 --> 00:30:14,134
I didn't think you were
much interested in...

418
00:30:15,314 --> 00:30:16,314
That's fine.

419
00:30:16,565 --> 00:30:18,647
Yeah, that's good. Good, good.

420
00:30:18,734 --> 00:30:21,726
Now, ready?
One second and I will...

421
00:30:22,321 --> 00:30:24,653
Okay, that's it.

422
00:30:26,575 --> 00:30:28,440
As per our discussion.

423
00:30:29,578 --> 00:30:31,239
All right, there it is,

424
00:30:31,455 --> 00:30:34,447
writ large in legal escritoire.

425
00:30:34,958 --> 00:30:36,368
And the... say, creighton.

426
00:30:40,422 --> 00:30:42,003
You're not gonna
screw me on this.

427
00:30:44,259 --> 00:30:45,294
Screw you?

428
00:30:45,635 --> 00:30:46,635
Jesus.

429
00:30:48,847 --> 00:30:49,927
Take it to a lawyer.

430
00:30:50,766 --> 00:30:52,256
No, I insist! No.

431
00:30:52,476 --> 00:30:53,682
I insist!

432
00:30:54,519 --> 00:30:58,762
This is dry cleaning. This is not
some fly-by-night thing here.

433
00:31:00,275 --> 00:31:01,481
Oh, I'll tell you,

434
00:31:01,568 --> 00:31:05,277
I have been 13 years as an
entrepreneur, and I have never...

435
00:31:05,364 --> 00:31:07,025
It's okay.
Nobody's even questioned me...

436
00:31:07,115 --> 00:31:08,855
Hey, look,
you want the dough back?

437
00:31:08,950 --> 00:31:11,750
Huh? Huh? Do you know who you're
talkin' to here? Do you know who I am?

438
00:31:11,828 --> 00:31:13,765
It's okay. Do you have any
idea who you are talkin'...

439
00:31:13,789 --> 00:31:14,789
It's okay.

440
00:31:16,458 --> 00:31:18,744
So, tolliver's is okay, then?

441
00:31:22,798 --> 00:31:24,083
Ed: The next day was Saturday.

442
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,587
We were going to a reception
for Doris's cousin Gina,

443
00:31:27,677 --> 00:31:29,918
who just married a wop vendor
out near modesto.

444
00:31:31,056 --> 00:31:33,468
Doris didn't much feel like
going, and I didn't either.

445
00:31:33,558 --> 00:31:36,971
But like she said,
we had a commitment.

446
00:31:39,815 --> 00:31:41,146
I hate wops.

447
00:31:44,861 --> 00:31:46,692
What's so goddamn strange
about that?

448
00:31:47,531 --> 00:31:48,771
I didn't say a word.

449
00:31:49,032 --> 00:31:50,613
You didn't have to
grow up with them.

450
00:31:53,078 --> 00:31:54,284
Family.

451
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,332
Boy: Ed! Uncle ed!

452
00:32:09,010 --> 00:32:11,843
He's riding garibaldi! Uncle
Frankie's riding garibaldi!

453
00:32:17,018 --> 00:32:19,054
Come on!

454
00:32:35,537 --> 00:32:37,368
Ed: That was when
she started drinking.

455
00:32:37,747 --> 00:32:39,863
Doris. Doris!

456
00:32:40,625 --> 00:32:41,865
You been okay?

457
00:32:42,627 --> 00:32:44,834
Mmm. Yeah. How you
doing, Costanza?

458
00:32:45,380 --> 00:32:47,996
Oh, you know.
Still got my health.

459
00:32:49,342 --> 00:32:50,957
And how you been...

460
00:32:52,554 --> 00:32:54,010
Ed. Ed.

461
00:32:54,723 --> 00:32:56,054
He's a barber, right?

462
00:32:56,892 --> 00:32:58,098
It's a good trade.

463
00:32:58,518 --> 00:33:00,008
So, how come
you got no kids, huh?

464
00:33:00,812 --> 00:33:02,848
No, come on, kids! Come on!

465
00:33:02,939 --> 00:33:04,429
I just ate lunch!

466
00:33:04,608 --> 00:33:06,394
I couldn't eat another thing.

467
00:33:07,068 --> 00:33:09,024
Oh... Anthony!

468
00:33:09,404 --> 00:33:11,645
Anthony, it's you!

469
00:33:11,907 --> 00:33:13,738
Okay, kids, ready? And...

470
00:33:18,622 --> 00:33:20,863
Congratulations.

471
00:33:23,793 --> 00:33:26,660
Congratulations, Gina.
It's so goddamn wonderful.

472
00:33:27,088 --> 00:33:28,107
Congratulations too, Gina.

473
00:33:28,131 --> 00:33:30,611
Life is just so goddamn wonderful,
you almost won't believe it.

474
00:33:31,885 --> 00:33:33,876
It's just a bowl
of goddamn cherries.

475
00:33:34,262 --> 00:33:35,672
Let's go. Sure.

476
00:33:35,931 --> 00:33:37,091
Come on.

477
00:33:38,558 --> 00:33:41,049
Congratulations
on your goddamn cherries!

478
00:33:43,438 --> 00:33:44,974
Let go of my goddamn elbow!

479
00:33:56,785 --> 00:33:59,948
Frank: I never wanna see
another blueberry pie.

480
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,412
I never even wanna
hear those words.

481
00:34:10,632 --> 00:34:12,168
Don't say those words, ed.

482
00:34:14,970 --> 00:34:16,426
Don't say those words.

483
00:35:06,187 --> 00:35:08,223
Ed: I'd met Doris blind
on a double date

484
00:35:08,356 --> 00:35:09,641
with a loudmouthed buddy of mine

485
00:35:09,733 --> 00:35:11,373
who was seeing a friend
of hers from work.

486
00:35:12,235 --> 00:35:15,147
We went to a movie.
Doris had a flask.

487
00:35:16,448 --> 00:35:17,813
Boy, she could put it away.

488
00:35:22,037 --> 00:35:25,154
At the end of the night, she said
she liked that I didn't talk much.

489
00:35:26,541 --> 00:35:27,852
It was only
a couple of weeks later

490
00:35:27,876 --> 00:35:29,636
she suggested we get married.

491
00:35:38,720 --> 00:35:39,880
Yeah.

492
00:35:40,221 --> 00:35:43,304
Big Dave: Ed, it's big Dave.
I gotta talk to you.

493
00:35:44,392 --> 00:35:45,427
What?

494
00:35:46,978 --> 00:35:47,978
Now?

495
00:35:48,730 --> 00:35:50,391
Yeah. It's important.

496
00:35:52,233 --> 00:35:53,268
But it's...

497
00:35:53,693 --> 00:35:55,433
Please, ed.

498
00:35:57,405 --> 00:35:59,361
Your place? Yeah.

499
00:35:59,574 --> 00:36:01,030
I'm at the store.

500
00:36:01,117 --> 00:36:02,857
Let yourself in. Okay.

501
00:37:00,051 --> 00:37:01,291
Dave?

502
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:06,800
I'm ruined.

503
00:37:10,895 --> 00:37:12,101
They've ruined me.

504
00:37:13,314 --> 00:37:14,474
This money.

505
00:37:16,151 --> 00:37:17,357
No annex.

506
00:37:18,695 --> 00:37:19,935
I'm all shot to hell.

507
00:37:22,991 --> 00:37:24,356
So, you paid the guy?

508
00:37:35,044 --> 00:37:36,500
What kind of man are you?

509
00:37:38,631 --> 00:37:39,746
Huh?

510
00:37:39,841 --> 00:37:42,674
What kind of man are you?

511
00:37:46,890 --> 00:37:49,256
I mean, I'd understand
if you came in here and...

512
00:37:50,351 --> 00:37:52,057
Socked me in the nose, whatever.

513
00:37:53,605 --> 00:37:55,345
I deserve it. I

514
00:37:55,565 --> 00:37:57,226
I'm not proud of what I did.

515
00:38:00,195 --> 00:38:01,355
But you.

516
00:38:05,658 --> 00:38:06,943
Yeah, I paid up.

517
00:38:08,536 --> 00:38:09,901
As you well know.

518
00:38:12,499 --> 00:38:14,205
But then I went
and found the pansy.

519
00:38:21,049 --> 00:38:22,539
Oh, you got nothin' to say, huh?

520
00:38:23,301 --> 00:38:25,792
Well, you know the story.

521
00:38:27,263 --> 00:38:28,423
I didn't.

522
00:38:30,141 --> 00:38:31,722
I had to beat it
out of the pansy.

523
00:39:03,341 --> 00:39:05,502
I'm all shot to hell.

524
00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:14,341
Well, Dave...

525
00:40:00,899 --> 00:40:02,264
Ohl

526
00:42:24,625 --> 00:42:28,664
Ed: It was only a couple weeks later
she suggested that we get married.

527
00:42:32,300 --> 00:42:35,212
I said, "don't you want
to get to know me more?”

528
00:42:35,303 --> 00:42:38,340
She said, "why?
Does it get better?”

529
00:42:40,266 --> 00:42:42,131
She looked at me
like I was a dope,

530
00:42:42,310 --> 00:42:44,346
which I never
really minded from her.

531
00:42:44,687 --> 00:42:47,099
And she had a point, I guess.

532
00:42:47,774 --> 00:42:51,141
We knew each other
as well then as now.

533
00:42:51,235 --> 00:42:53,726
Anyway, well enough.

534
00:43:06,959 --> 00:43:09,917
Frank: Holy moley,
do I got a headache.

535
00:43:10,004 --> 00:43:11,710
How are you today, ed?

536
00:43:11,798 --> 00:43:13,004
Okay.

537
00:43:14,342 --> 00:43:15,752
You don't got a headache?

538
00:43:15,843 --> 00:43:17,754
Ed: No.

539
00:43:18,012 --> 00:43:20,799
Damn, I got a headache
to beat the band.

540
00:43:22,350 --> 00:43:25,342
Man: Didn't make a sound.
Didn't cough, nothin'.

541
00:43:25,436 --> 00:43:29,020
Frank: Did you pump it? You can't pump it.
That'll just flood it.

542
00:43:29,107 --> 00:43:32,270
Man: No, no, no, you gotta pump it.
You can't just hold it down.

543
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,021
I mean, that'll flood it.

544
00:43:34,112 --> 00:43:36,398
Frank: You crazy? You pump it.

545
00:43:36,739 --> 00:43:38,775
Man: You can't hold it down.

546
00:43:38,866 --> 00:43:41,824
Frank: Just turn the key.

547
00:43:42,203 --> 00:43:45,616
Man: Not when it's cold. Frank:
Well, if it's cold, choke it.

548
00:43:45,706 --> 00:43:47,992
Man: And pump it.
Frank: How many times?

549
00:43:52,547 --> 00:43:53,547
Ed crane?

550
00:43:58,136 --> 00:43:59,136
I'm crane.

551
00:44:00,096 --> 00:44:01,711
Come on outside.

552
00:44:02,056 --> 00:44:03,216
Sure.

553
00:44:18,406 --> 00:44:20,863
I'm officer persky.
This is krebs.

554
00:44:23,119 --> 00:44:24,404
Well, we goin'?

555
00:44:25,163 --> 00:44:26,619
Huh?

556
00:44:26,747 --> 00:44:28,658
Oh, no.

557
00:44:30,418 --> 00:44:31,418
Cigarette?

558
00:44:34,505 --> 00:44:36,541
Right.

559
00:44:38,176 --> 00:44:39,586
Pete's got some news for ya.

560
00:44:43,472 --> 00:44:45,463
Uh...

561
00:44:46,267 --> 00:44:48,258
Look, pal,

562
00:44:49,687 --> 00:44:51,723
it's a tough break, but...

563
00:44:53,107 --> 00:44:54,768
Well, damn I,
your wife's been pinched.

564
00:44:56,110 --> 00:44:57,520
They sent us around to tell you.

565
00:44:58,321 --> 00:44:59,982
Huh?

566
00:45:00,072 --> 00:45:02,438
They sent us around to tell you.
We pulled the detail.

567
00:45:04,869 --> 00:45:06,200
My wife?

568
00:45:06,287 --> 00:45:09,279
Yeah. Yeah, they brung her
down to county jail.

569
00:45:11,292 --> 00:45:12,623
Homicide.

570
00:45:12,710 --> 00:45:14,325
Well, embezzlement...

571
00:45:14,545 --> 00:45:15,910
And homicide.

572
00:45:16,380 --> 00:45:18,792
Guy named David Brewster.
He's the guy she...

573
00:45:19,967 --> 00:45:21,332
He's the decedent.

574
00:45:22,303 --> 00:45:23,634
I don't understand.

575
00:45:24,347 --> 00:45:25,347
He's the dead guy.

576
00:45:26,515 --> 00:45:28,927
Persky: Yeah.
Yeah, it's a tough break.

577
00:45:30,811 --> 00:45:32,392
Visiting ends at 5:00.

578
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,392
Oh, missed it today, but,

579
00:45:36,567 --> 00:45:37,898
you can go see her tomorrow.

580
00:45:40,029 --> 00:45:41,610
Persky: Sorry, pal.

581
00:45:42,156 --> 00:45:44,147
They sent us to tell ya.

582
00:45:46,410 --> 00:45:48,446
Crap detail.

583
00:46:10,977 --> 00:46:12,183
Hello, Walter.

584
00:46:12,603 --> 00:46:14,594
Hello, ed.

585
00:46:16,857 --> 00:46:20,065
Thanks. Thanks for seein'
me at home.

586
00:46:20,361 --> 00:46:22,693
Oh, hell. Want a drink?

587
00:46:23,656 --> 00:46:25,521
Uh, no, thanks.

588
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,111
You sure you don't need one?

589
00:46:28,202 --> 00:46:30,409
I'm fine. Okay.

590
00:46:31,539 --> 00:46:33,951
Boy. Yeah.

591
00:46:35,001 --> 00:46:36,286
Jesus.

592
00:46:37,044 --> 00:46:38,955
So...

593
00:46:39,046 --> 00:46:41,082
What do I...

594
00:46:41,173 --> 00:46:44,256
Well, of course, I...

595
00:46:44,885 --> 00:46:47,126
It's out of my league.

596
00:46:47,221 --> 00:46:51,055
No, I do probate
and real estate...

597
00:46:51,142 --> 00:46:52,803
And title search.

598
00:46:54,645 --> 00:46:56,761
I'd be absolutely worthless,
somethin' like this.

599
00:46:56,856 --> 00:46:58,721
Absolutely worthless.

600
00:46:59,483 --> 00:47:01,394
Excuse me.

601
00:47:03,404 --> 00:47:06,111
I just finished dinner.

602
00:47:06,198 --> 00:47:07,734
No.

603
00:47:09,368 --> 00:47:12,656
Frankly, Doris'd be better off
with the county defender.

604
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,913
He a good man? Bert's okay.

605
00:47:16,292 --> 00:47:19,204
Yeah, he's a good man.

606
00:47:19,295 --> 00:47:21,502
Listen, I won't kid you, ed.

607
00:47:23,341 --> 00:47:24,501
There's nobody around here

608
00:47:24,592 --> 00:47:27,083
has any experience
with this kind of thing.

609
00:47:28,721 --> 00:47:30,632
I hear they're bringin'
a prosecutor up

610
00:47:30,723 --> 00:47:32,714
from Sacramento.

611
00:47:34,685 --> 00:47:36,346
It's a capital offense.

612
00:47:36,437 --> 00:47:38,268
They're taking it seriously.

613
00:47:38,606 --> 00:47:40,562
So... they're taking
it seriously.

614
00:47:40,649 --> 00:47:42,810
So, what...

615
00:47:42,902 --> 00:47:45,894
Do you want any more coffee, dad?
Oh, hi, Mr. crane.

616
00:47:46,614 --> 00:47:47,729
Hello, Rachel.

617
00:47:50,409 --> 00:47:52,400
I was so sorry to hear.

618
00:47:54,038 --> 00:47:56,370
Yeah, thanks. Coffee, ed?

619
00:47:56,791 --> 00:47:59,123
No, thanks. Ah, no, thanks, honey.
We're...

620
00:47:59,210 --> 00:48:00,620
Okay, dad.

621
00:48:00,795 --> 00:48:03,537
It was good to see
you again, Mr. crane.

622
00:48:07,009 --> 00:48:08,920
Damn.

623
00:48:09,595 --> 00:48:10,926
A good kid.

624
00:48:11,013 --> 00:48:14,050
Jesus...

625
00:48:14,892 --> 00:48:16,803
So...

626
00:48:17,478 --> 00:48:18,888
Who do you think?

627
00:48:18,979 --> 00:48:21,140
Oh, well,

628
00:48:21,482 --> 00:48:23,643
Lloyd garroway in San Francisco.

629
00:48:24,735 --> 00:48:26,225
Probity.

630
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:30,359
You know, nobody ever said anything
iffy about Lloyd garroway.

631
00:48:31,826 --> 00:48:33,032
He's conservative.

632
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,987
Jury might like that.
Might like that here.

633
00:48:39,417 --> 00:48:40,782
Probity.

634
00:48:41,460 --> 00:48:44,122
So, he's the best man for...

635
00:48:44,213 --> 00:48:46,124
No. For this...

636
00:48:46,215 --> 00:48:50,959
The best, the money-is-no-object
best, any lawyer'll tell you,

637
00:48:51,053 --> 00:48:53,590
is Freddy riedenschneider
from...

638
00:48:55,975 --> 00:48:57,340
Sacramento.

639
00:48:59,186 --> 00:49:01,723
I don't know
how you're fixed for money.

640
00:49:01,814 --> 00:49:04,021
But he's... the best.

641
00:49:04,108 --> 00:49:05,473
The best, yeah.

642
00:49:08,070 --> 00:49:09,480
Riedenschneider.

643
00:49:18,747 --> 00:49:20,362
No question about it.

644
00:49:21,125 --> 00:49:23,081
It's okay.

645
00:49:23,169 --> 00:49:25,080
No!

646
00:49:46,901 --> 00:49:48,857
Nol

647
00:49:50,196 --> 00:49:51,732
honey.

648
00:49:54,408 --> 00:49:56,399
Nol!

649
00:50:08,631 --> 00:50:10,622
I brought your makeup.

650
00:50:12,134 --> 00:50:14,125
Glasses.

651
00:50:20,976 --> 00:50:22,591
What happened to you?

652
00:50:22,937 --> 00:50:25,178
I don't know what's goin' on.
I...

653
00:50:28,609 --> 00:50:30,770
I don't know what
happened to big Dave.

654
00:50:30,861 --> 00:50:32,317
I know some of it.

655
00:50:32,404 --> 00:50:35,487
Irregularities in the books, they said.
Can I explain it?

656
00:50:36,825 --> 00:50:38,611
You don't have to
explain anything.

657
00:50:39,286 --> 00:50:41,743
I did help him cook the books, ed.
I did do that.

658
00:50:49,004 --> 00:50:50,995
Should I...

659
00:50:52,132 --> 00:50:55,499
Should I tell you
why I changed the books?

660
00:50:58,806 --> 00:51:00,888
You don't have to
tell me anything.

661
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:05,347
No, no, no!

662
00:51:05,854 --> 00:51:07,810
Jesus Christ!

663
00:51:21,996 --> 00:51:23,861
My books used to be perfect.

664
00:51:24,123 --> 00:51:26,763
Anyone could open 'em up and make
sense of the whole goddamn store.

665
00:51:32,298 --> 00:51:34,163
I knew we'd pay for it.

666
00:51:34,550 --> 00:51:36,461
Frank: I don't care
what it costs!

667
00:51:36,552 --> 00:51:39,464
This is when you come together.

668
00:51:39,555 --> 00:51:41,295
Well, that's awfully
generous of you, frank.

669
00:51:41,390 --> 00:51:44,257
The hell with it.
The hell with it, Eddie.

670
00:51:44,351 --> 00:51:46,216
This is when you come together.

671
00:51:46,312 --> 00:51:48,303
This is family.

672
00:51:52,192 --> 00:51:54,934
Frank: They're just people
like you and me, ed.

673
00:51:55,321 --> 00:51:57,186
Remember that.

674
00:51:57,698 --> 00:52:00,110
Just people.

675
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:04,068
They gotta put up the big front so that
people will trust 'em with their money.

676
00:52:04,204 --> 00:52:07,367
Mmm-hmm. This is why
the big lobby, ed.

677
00:52:07,458 --> 00:52:12,452
But they put their pants on one leg
at a time just like you and me.

678
00:52:12,630 --> 00:52:13,915
Uh-huh.

679
00:52:14,048 --> 00:52:17,085
They, too, use the toilet, ed,
in spite of appearances.

680
00:52:17,843 --> 00:52:20,129
And their money will be
secured by the barber shop.

681
00:52:21,013 --> 00:52:24,130
A rock. A rock, the barber shop.

682
00:52:24,224 --> 00:52:26,385
Mr. raffo.

683
00:52:26,477 --> 00:52:27,557
Yes, sir?

684
00:52:27,895 --> 00:52:29,385
Could you come with me, please?

685
00:52:30,356 --> 00:52:32,062
Sure. Can ed come too?

686
00:52:32,149 --> 00:52:34,060
Mister...

687
00:52:34,193 --> 00:52:36,775
Crane. Ed crane.

688
00:52:37,529 --> 00:52:40,521
You also have an interest
in the securing property?

689
00:52:41,325 --> 00:52:43,236
He's a barber. Ah.

690
00:52:43,327 --> 00:52:46,410
Second chair. Not an owner.

691
00:52:47,414 --> 00:52:50,531
No, he's family.
He's my brother-in-law.

692
00:52:51,418 --> 00:52:54,581
It would be best
if he waited here.

693
00:53:32,501 --> 00:53:34,537
Ed: The barber shop.

694
00:53:37,631 --> 00:53:41,749
Doris and frank's father had worked
30 years to own it free and clear.

695
00:53:41,844 --> 00:53:43,926
Now, it got signed over
to the bank,

696
00:53:44,012 --> 00:53:46,094
and the bank signed some money
over to frank,

697
00:53:46,181 --> 00:53:49,264
and frank signed the money over
to Freddy riedenschneider,

698
00:53:49,810 --> 00:53:51,846
who got into town two days later

699
00:53:51,937 --> 00:53:54,974
and told me to meet him
at Da Vinci's for lunch.

700
00:53:57,317 --> 00:54:00,275
Not fried, poached. Three
of 'em for two minutes.

701
00:54:00,362 --> 00:54:02,799
Strip steak, medium rare, flapjacks,
potatoes, tomato juice...

702
00:54:02,823 --> 00:54:04,734
And plenty of hot coffee.

703
00:54:05,534 --> 00:54:08,241
You have any prairie oysters?
No, sir.

704
00:54:08,328 --> 00:54:11,365
Then bring me a fruit
cocktail while I wait.

705
00:54:13,834 --> 00:54:16,075
You're crane? Yeah.

706
00:54:16,170 --> 00:54:17,501
Barber, right? Yeah.

707
00:54:17,588 --> 00:54:20,751
I'm Freddy riedenschneider.
Hungry? Not really.

708
00:54:20,841 --> 00:54:23,878
They tell me the chow's okay here.
I made some inquiries.

709
00:54:25,262 --> 00:54:28,254
Look, I don't want to waste your
time, so I'll eat while we talk.

710
00:54:28,348 --> 00:54:29,884
Do you mind? You don't mind.

711
00:54:29,975 --> 00:54:32,466
While I'm in town I'm staying
at the hotel metropole.

712
00:54:32,561 --> 00:54:34,517
Turandot suite.
Yeah, it's goofy.

713
00:54:34,855 --> 00:54:36,561
They named their suites
after operas.

714
00:54:36,648 --> 00:54:38,479
Room's okay, though.
I poked around.

715
00:54:38,567 --> 00:54:41,309
I'm having 'em hold it for me on
account of I'll be back and forth.

716
00:54:41,403 --> 00:54:46,488
So, in addition to my retainer, you're
paying hotel, living expenses, secretarial,

717
00:54:46,575 --> 00:54:49,863
private eye, if we need to make inquiries,
head shrinker, should we go that way.

718
00:54:49,953 --> 00:54:52,319
We'll talk about appeals
if, as and when.

719
00:54:52,414 --> 00:54:54,450
For right now,
has she confessed?

720
00:54:54,541 --> 00:54:56,702
No, of course not.
She didn't do it.

721
00:54:56,794 --> 00:54:59,514
Good. That helps. Not that she didn't
do it, that she didn't confess.

722
00:54:59,588 --> 00:55:02,148
'Course, there's ways to deal with
a confession, but that's good.

723
00:55:02,216 --> 00:55:03,581
One less thing to think about.

724
00:55:03,675 --> 00:55:06,633
Now, interview. I'm seeing her tomorrow.
You should be there, 3:00.

725
00:55:06,720 --> 00:55:09,257
One more thing,
you keep your mouth shut.

726
00:55:09,348 --> 00:55:11,680
I get the lay of the land,
I tell you what to say.

727
00:55:11,767 --> 00:55:15,055
No talking out of school. What's out
of school? Everything's out of school.

728
00:55:15,521 --> 00:55:18,058
I do the talking.
You keep your trap shut.

729
00:55:18,148 --> 00:55:20,429
I'm an attorney. You're a barber.
You don't know anything.

730
00:55:23,070 --> 00:55:24,185
Okay.

731
00:55:24,279 --> 00:55:26,816
Good. Any questions,
give me aring.

732
00:55:26,907 --> 00:55:29,523
Turandot suite.
If I'm out, leave a message.

733
00:55:30,369 --> 00:55:31,529
Sure you don't want anything?

734
00:55:31,620 --> 00:55:33,326
No? Okay.

735
00:55:33,413 --> 00:55:34,823
You're okay, pal.

736
00:55:35,415 --> 00:55:38,122
You're okay, she's okay,
everything's gonna be hunky...

737
00:55:38,210 --> 00:55:39,416
And the flapjacks, honey.

738
00:55:47,052 --> 00:55:49,088
Ed: There they were,

739
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:54,598
all going about their business.

740
00:55:56,061 --> 00:55:57,972
It seemed like I knew a secret,

741
00:55:58,063 --> 00:56:01,271
a bigger one, even, than what had
really happened to big Dave,

742
00:56:01,608 --> 00:56:04,771
something none of them knew.

743
00:56:05,070 --> 00:56:06,710
Like I had made it
to the outside somehow,

744
00:56:06,780 --> 00:56:09,442
and they were all still
struggling way down below.

745
00:56:33,348 --> 00:56:34,463
Ann.

746
00:56:35,684 --> 00:56:37,015
Hello, ed.

747
00:56:37,811 --> 00:56:39,642
Would you like to come in, Ann?

748
00:56:41,773 --> 00:56:44,139
No. No, it's very late.

749
00:56:48,530 --> 00:56:50,145
I'm so sorry about your loss.

750
00:56:56,538 --> 00:56:59,780
'Course you know that Doris
had nothing to do with it.

751
00:57:00,918 --> 00:57:02,533
Nothing at all.

752
00:57:03,337 --> 00:57:04,452
I know.

753
00:57:05,923 --> 00:57:07,504
Don't worry, ed.

754
00:57:09,051 --> 00:57:10,962
I came to tell you...

755
00:57:11,637 --> 00:57:14,379
And you should tell Doris...

756
00:57:14,473 --> 00:57:15,553
Yeah?

757
00:57:26,610 --> 00:57:29,977
You know how big Dave loved
camping and the out of doors?

758
00:57:32,991 --> 00:57:34,106
Yeah.

759
00:57:34,201 --> 00:57:38,240
We went camping last summer
in Eugene, Oregon.

760
00:57:38,872 --> 00:57:41,909
Outside Eugene, ed.

761
00:57:43,669 --> 00:57:45,034
Yeah?

762
00:57:45,128 --> 00:57:48,620
At night there were lights.
We both saw them.

763
00:57:49,299 --> 00:57:53,133
We never told anyone outside
of our official report,

764
00:57:53,220 --> 00:57:55,051
our report to the government.

765
00:57:56,431 --> 00:57:59,093
Ann? There was a spacecraft.

766
00:58:00,018 --> 00:58:01,974
I saw the creatures.

767
00:58:02,062 --> 00:58:05,020
They led big Dave
onto the craft.

768
00:58:05,565 --> 00:58:08,648
He never told anyone
what they did.

769
00:58:08,735 --> 00:58:09,815
Ann, would you like to...

770
00:58:09,903 --> 00:58:14,363
I cannot repeat it to you,
but this thing goes deep, ed.

771
00:58:15,117 --> 00:58:17,779
It goes deep
and involves the government.

772
00:58:17,995 --> 00:58:21,954
This was not your wife.
There's a great deal of fear.

773
00:58:22,082 --> 00:58:24,368
You know how certain circles
would find it,

774
00:58:24,459 --> 00:58:27,371
the knowledge, a threat.

775
00:58:27,462 --> 00:58:29,999
They, they try
to limit it, and...

776
00:58:30,173 --> 00:58:33,461
Ann, would you like to come in,

777
00:58:33,885 --> 00:58:35,591
sit down?

778
00:58:36,638 --> 00:58:38,344
Maybe have a drink.

779
00:58:43,687 --> 00:58:45,848
Sometimes knowledge
is a curse, ed.

780
00:58:48,358 --> 00:58:49,689
After this happened,

781
00:58:51,111 --> 00:58:52,647
things changed.

782
00:58:54,948 --> 00:58:56,779
Big Dave...

783
00:59:00,245 --> 00:59:02,031
He never touched me again.

784
00:59:05,584 --> 00:59:10,294
Tell Doris not to worry.
I know it wasn't her.

785
00:59:10,839 --> 00:59:14,423
Perhaps this will
bring it out finally.

786
00:59:15,010 --> 00:59:18,093
Perhaps now
it will all come out.

787
00:59:49,753 --> 00:59:51,118
But it's true. I don't care.

788
00:59:51,213 --> 00:59:52,874
It's true, it's not true.
It stinks.

789
00:59:53,799 --> 00:59:56,916
You say he was being blackmailed?
By who? You don't know.

790
00:59:57,010 --> 00:59:59,217
For having an affair.
With who? You don't know.

791
00:59:59,304 --> 01:00:02,137
Did anyone else know about it?
Probably not. You don't know.

792
01:00:02,808 --> 01:00:04,218
I knew about it.

793
01:00:05,102 --> 01:00:06,433
Big Dave told me about it.

794
01:00:07,312 --> 01:00:09,724
And the spot he was putting
himself in by getting the money.

795
01:00:09,815 --> 01:00:13,307
Terrific! Your husband backs you up.
That's terrific.

796
01:00:13,401 --> 01:00:15,361
Come on, you gotta give me
something to work with.

797
01:00:15,445 --> 01:00:18,152
Freddy riedenschneider is good,
but he's not a magician.

798
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:21,903
He can't just wave his little wand in the air
to make a plausible defense materialize.

799
01:00:21,993 --> 01:00:24,359
Look! Look at what the other
side is gonna run at us.

800
01:00:24,996 --> 01:00:29,786
They got the company books prepared
by you, cooked by you. That's motive.

801
01:00:30,085 --> 01:00:32,997
They got a murder scene you had access to.
That's opportunity.

802
01:00:33,088 --> 01:00:36,046
They got that little trimmer thing
he was stabbed in the throat with.

803
01:00:36,133 --> 01:00:37,714
A dame's weapon.
It was big Dave's.

804
01:00:37,801 --> 01:00:39,416
Don't interrupt me.
That's means.

805
01:00:40,095 --> 01:00:43,303
They got a fine, upstanding pillar of
the business community as a victim,

806
01:00:43,390 --> 01:00:44,926
and then they got you,

807
01:00:45,016 --> 01:00:48,349
a disgruntled,
number-juggling underling,

808
01:00:48,436 --> 01:00:50,848
who on the day in question
was drunk as a skunk...

809
01:00:50,939 --> 01:00:55,399
And whose alibi for the time in question
is being passed out at home, alone.

810
01:00:56,194 --> 01:00:58,105
I was with her.

811
01:00:58,196 --> 01:01:01,734
Like I say, it stinks.

812
01:01:10,417 --> 01:01:11,657
I killed him.

813
01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:29,717
Okay. You killed him.

814
01:01:31,771 --> 01:01:36,231
Okay, we forget the blackmail thing.
You killed him.

815
01:01:36,318 --> 01:01:37,603
How come?

816
01:01:40,864 --> 01:01:43,321
He and Doris
were having an affair.

817
01:01:47,329 --> 01:01:50,446
Okay. How did you know?

818
01:01:53,251 --> 01:01:55,242
I just knew.

819
01:01:56,379 --> 01:01:57,960
A husband knows.

820
01:01:59,341 --> 01:02:02,549
Will anyone else say they knew?
And don't say your wife.

821
01:02:02,886 --> 01:02:04,922
Ed: I don't know.

822
01:02:06,890 --> 01:02:08,755
I don't think so.

823
01:02:08,850 --> 01:02:12,513
Freddy: How did
you get into the store?

824
01:02:12,604 --> 01:02:14,265
I took Doris's keys.

825
01:02:14,564 --> 01:02:18,477
Will anyone say they saw you there, on your
way there, in there, on your way back?

826
01:02:20,654 --> 01:02:21,769
I don't think so.

827
01:02:21,863 --> 01:02:26,232
Will anyone corroborate any goddamn
part of your story at all? Oh, come on!

828
01:02:26,326 --> 01:02:28,692
People, you can't help
each other like that.

829
01:02:30,497 --> 01:02:32,658
Let's be realistic, now.

830
01:02:33,625 --> 01:02:35,707
Let's look at our options.

831
01:02:37,003 --> 01:02:38,789
Well, frankly,
I don't see any options.

832
01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:44,091
Look, I cannot present story
a, I cannot present story b.

833
01:02:44,678 --> 01:02:47,590
I could plead you for a nutcase,
but you look too composed.

834
01:02:47,681 --> 01:02:48,741
I could offer a guilty plea,

835
01:02:48,765 --> 01:02:50,076
and in return they don't
give you the juice,

836
01:02:50,100 --> 01:02:52,203
but I don't think you want to spend
the rest of your life in chino

837
01:02:52,227 --> 01:02:53,913
and I know you didn't hire
Freddy riedenschneider

838
01:02:53,937 --> 01:02:56,098
to hold your hand
at a sentencing hearing.

839
01:02:56,523 --> 01:02:58,388
You could have gotten
Lloyd garroway for that.

840
01:02:58,692 --> 01:03:01,274
No, no, no, no.
We're not giving up yet.

841
01:03:01,361 --> 01:03:02,646
You hired Freddy
riedenschneider,

842
01:03:02,737 --> 01:03:04,377
it means you're not
throwing in the towel.

843
01:03:04,656 --> 01:03:07,693
I litigate. I don't capitulate.

844
01:03:08,493 --> 01:03:11,576
All right. No options?
We gotta think.

845
01:03:11,871 --> 01:03:15,659
All right. We go back to the blackmail
thing. Yeah, it titillates.

846
01:03:15,750 --> 01:03:18,412
It's open-ended, and it
makes him the bad guy.

847
01:03:18,586 --> 01:03:21,453
You dig around, you never know.
Something unsavory from his past.

848
01:03:21,548 --> 01:03:23,359
He approaches you to help him
with the money, it's too late,

849
01:03:23,383 --> 01:03:24,402
his past comes back
to haunt him.

850
01:03:24,426 --> 01:03:26,963
Who's to say?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

851
01:03:27,345 --> 01:03:29,198
Forget the jealous husband thing.
That's just silly.

852
01:03:29,222 --> 01:03:32,464
We're going with the blackmail.
I'll be in touch. I'm comin' out!

853
01:03:42,277 --> 01:03:45,815
Ed: Of course there was one person
who could confirm Doris"s story,

854
01:03:46,031 --> 01:03:47,737
or plenty of it.

855
01:03:47,907 --> 01:03:49,238
The dry-cleaning pansy.

856
01:03:50,660 --> 01:03:53,402
But he'd left the hotel,
skipped out on his bill.

857
01:03:54,873 --> 01:03:57,615
He'd also disappeared
from the residence he gave me,

858
01:03:57,709 --> 01:03:59,620
owing two months' rent.

859
01:03:59,919 --> 01:04:01,830
How could I have been so stupid?

860
01:04:01,921 --> 01:04:04,788
Handing over $10,000
for a piece of paper.

861
01:04:06,634 --> 01:04:09,842
And the man gone, like a ghost.

862
01:04:09,929 --> 01:04:14,343
Disappeared into thin air, vaporized
like the nips at Nagasaki.

863
01:04:14,434 --> 01:04:15,549
Gone now.

864
01:04:18,938 --> 01:04:22,021
All gone.

865
01:04:22,108 --> 01:04:25,521
The money gone, big Dave gone,

866
01:04:25,612 --> 01:04:26,727
Doris going.

867
01:04:28,448 --> 01:04:30,154
How could I have been so stupid?

868
01:04:51,763 --> 01:04:54,550
She makes this stuff
she calls it "gatto".

869
01:04:54,641 --> 01:04:58,975
It's got egg in there.
It's got sugar. It's got...

870
01:04:59,062 --> 01:05:02,725
It's cake, basically,
except she calls it "gatto".

871
01:05:02,816 --> 01:05:05,558
You know, like if you
don't call it cake,

872
01:05:05,652 --> 01:05:07,734
you don't put on any weight.

873
01:05:07,821 --> 01:05:11,530
Like I need to be eating gatto.
You know what I'm saying?

874
01:05:11,616 --> 01:05:15,074
Ed: Sooner or later,
everyone needs a haircut.

875
01:05:15,161 --> 01:05:20,076
We
Were working for the bank now.

876
01:05:20,166 --> 01:05:23,875
We kept cutting the hair,
trying to stay afloat,

877
01:05:23,962 --> 01:05:28,171
make the payments,
fread the water, day by day,

878
01:05:29,509 --> 01:05:31,716
day by day.

879
01:05:34,848 --> 01:05:37,214
Most people think someone's
accused of a crime,

880
01:05:37,308 --> 01:05:40,596
they haul 'em in and bring 'em to
trial, but it's not like that.

881
01:05:40,687 --> 01:05:42,598
It's not that fast.

882
01:05:42,689 --> 01:05:45,055
The wheels of justice turn slow.

883
01:05:45,150 --> 01:05:48,392
They have the arraignment,
then the indictment,

884
01:05:48,486 --> 01:05:52,570
and they entertain motions to dismiss
and postpone and change the venue...

885
01:05:52,657 --> 01:05:55,524
And alter this and that
and the other.

886
01:05:55,618 --> 01:05:58,109
They impanel a jury,
which bring more motions.

887
01:05:58,329 --> 01:06:01,366
Then they set a trial date,
and then they change the date.

888
01:06:01,499 --> 01:06:05,333
And then, often as not, they'll change
it again. Not guilty, your honor.

889
01:06:05,420 --> 01:06:09,163
I says, "honey, if you're gonna make
coffee, make a little bit of coffee."

890
01:06:09,257 --> 01:06:12,420
Ed: And through all of if,
we cut the hair.

891
01:06:17,599 --> 01:06:21,387
Meantime, Freddy riedenschneider
slept at the metropole.

892
01:06:24,898 --> 01:06:28,140
And shoveled it in
at Da Vinci's.

893
01:06:28,526 --> 01:06:31,563
He'd brought in a private
investigator from Sacramento,

894
01:06:31,654 --> 01:06:33,565
to nose around
into big Dave's past.

895
01:06:52,926 --> 01:06:56,635
I found myself, more and more,
going over to the abundas'.

896
01:06:56,721 --> 01:07:00,555
It was a routine we fell into
most every evening.

897
01:07:00,642 --> 01:07:04,226
I even went when Walter was
away on his research trips.

898
01:07:07,690 --> 01:07:09,726
He was a genealogist,

899
01:07:09,817 --> 01:07:13,059
had traced back his side of
the family seven generations,

900
01:07:13,154 --> 01:07:15,019
his late wife's eight.

901
01:07:15,114 --> 01:07:17,355
It seemed like a screwy hobby,

902
01:07:17,450 --> 01:07:19,441
but then maybe all hobbies are.

903
01:07:23,373 --> 01:07:27,742
Maybe Walter found something there
in the old county courthouses,

904
01:07:27,835 --> 01:07:29,826
hospital file rooms,

905
01:07:29,921 --> 01:07:32,663
city archives, property rolls,

906
01:07:32,757 --> 01:07:34,463
registries.

907
01:07:39,430 --> 01:07:42,263
Some kind of escape.

908
01:07:42,350 --> 01:07:45,968
Some kind of peace.

909
01:08:27,145 --> 01:08:30,387
They got this guy in Germany.

910
01:08:32,108 --> 01:08:34,019
Fritz something or other.

911
01:08:35,194 --> 01:08:37,025
Orisit... maybe it's Werner.

912
01:08:37,113 --> 01:08:40,276
Anyway... he's got this theory.

913
01:08:42,201 --> 01:08:45,159
You want to test something,
you know, scientifically,

914
01:08:45,246 --> 01:08:48,238
how the planets
go 'round the sun,

915
01:08:48,333 --> 01:08:51,075
what sunspots are made of,

916
01:08:51,169 --> 01:08:53,626
why the water
comes out of the tap...

917
01:08:53,713 --> 01:08:55,874
Well, you gotta look at it.

918
01:08:57,050 --> 01:09:00,713
But sometimes you look at it...

919
01:09:00,803 --> 01:09:04,170
Your looking changes it.

920
01:09:06,976 --> 01:09:10,889
You can't know the reality
of what happened,

921
01:09:10,980 --> 01:09:12,220
or what would have happened,

922
01:09:12,315 --> 01:09:15,899
if you hadn't stuck in
your own goddamn schnoz.

923
01:09:16,235 --> 01:09:19,318
So, there is no "what happened?"

924
01:09:19,405 --> 01:09:21,487
Looking at something...

925
01:09:21,574 --> 01:09:23,565
Changes it.

926
01:09:28,164 --> 01:09:30,906
They call it
the uncertainty principle.

927
01:09:31,584 --> 01:09:35,702
Sure, it sounds screwy, but even
Einstein says the guy's onto something.

928
01:09:39,217 --> 01:09:40,798
Science.

929
01:09:41,177 --> 01:09:42,792
Perception.

930
01:09:44,597 --> 01:09:45,928
Reality.

931
01:09:47,809 --> 01:09:48,809
Doubt.

932
01:09:50,395 --> 01:09:53,808
Reasonable doubt.

933
01:09:55,525 --> 01:09:59,143
I'm saying that sometimes
the more you look,

934
01:09:59,237 --> 01:10:00,977
the less you really know.

935
01:10:03,157 --> 01:10:06,320
It's a fact, a proved fact.

936
01:10:06,411 --> 01:10:08,777
In... in a way,

937
01:10:08,871 --> 01:10:11,362
it's the only fact there is.

938
01:10:14,335 --> 01:10:18,374
This heinie even
wrote it out in numbers.

939
01:10:21,467 --> 01:10:22,957
Burns?

940
01:10:30,893 --> 01:10:33,509
Subject, David Allen Brewster,

941
01:10:33,646 --> 01:10:35,477
born Brooklyn, 1911.

942
01:10:35,565 --> 01:10:39,103
Subject educated in public schools.
One year case western university.

943
01:10:39,193 --> 01:10:40,729
Flunks out.

944
01:10:40,820 --> 01:10:45,564
1931, retail appliance salesman in
barnhoff's department store, Cincinnati.

945
01:10:45,658 --> 01:10:49,150
1933, meets Ann nirdlinger.
They marry that year.

946
01:10:49,245 --> 01:10:51,657
19395, arrested
on assault complaint.

947
01:10:51,748 --> 01:10:54,205
Complainant has a broken nose,
couple of broken ribs.

948
01:10:54,292 --> 01:10:56,578
'36, another assault beef
at a bar room altercation.

949
01:10:56,669 --> 01:11:00,503
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Couple of fistfights,
right? Go to his service record.

950
01:11:03,009 --> 01:11:05,967
Inducted march 15, 1942.

951
01:11:06,053 --> 01:11:10,092
Served in a clerical capacity in the
us Navy shipyards at San Diego.

952
01:11:10,183 --> 01:11:12,219
One fistfight,
broken up by the mps.

953
01:11:12,310 --> 01:11:16,644
No court martial. Honorable
discharge, may 8, 1945.

954
01:11:16,731 --> 01:11:20,474
Since then, he's been clean.
Thank you, burns. Get lost.

955
01:11:31,204 --> 01:11:32,204
So?

956
01:11:32,622 --> 01:11:33,622
So?

957
01:11:34,999 --> 01:11:37,866
This could be your Dolly's
ticket out of the death house.

958
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:39,120
Sol

959
01:11:40,797 --> 01:11:41,877
I don't get it.

960
01:11:42,298 --> 01:11:44,914
Look, chump.

961
01:11:45,009 --> 01:11:49,628
This is a guy, from what I understand,
told everybody he was a war hero, right?

962
01:11:49,722 --> 01:11:52,930
Island-hopping, practically liberated
the pacific all by himself,

963
01:11:53,017 --> 01:11:55,633
with a knife in one hand,
a gun in the other,

964
01:11:55,728 --> 01:11:58,219
and 20 yards of jap guts
between his teeth.

965
01:11:58,606 --> 01:12:02,144
And now it turns out this dope
spent the war sitting on his ass

966
01:12:02,235 --> 01:12:03,975
in some boat yard in San Diego.

967
01:12:05,655 --> 01:12:07,520
You asked for blackmail.

968
01:12:07,615 --> 01:12:11,153
Mr. hail-fellow-well-met, about
to open his own business here,

969
01:12:11,244 --> 01:12:14,202
has been lying to everybody in
this town for the last four years,

970
01:12:14,622 --> 01:12:17,614
probably including half the
people sitting on that jury.

971
01:12:17,708 --> 01:12:19,664
Well, it finally
caught up with him.

972
01:12:19,752 --> 01:12:23,495
Somebody knew his dirty little
secret, just like your wife says.

973
01:12:24,841 --> 01:12:28,004
They called,
they demanded money.

974
01:12:28,970 --> 01:12:32,383
Did big Dave say he'd recently
heard from an old friend?

975
01:12:33,224 --> 01:12:36,808
Did big Dave mention it was
something about his war service?

976
01:12:36,894 --> 01:12:39,351
I don't know. I wasn't there.

977
01:12:40,106 --> 01:12:41,846
You have to tell us.

978
01:12:43,192 --> 01:12:46,150
Maybe he specified,
maybe he didn't.

979
01:12:46,279 --> 01:12:48,486
I'm not putting words
in your mouth, no.

980
01:12:48,781 --> 01:12:51,113
But the point is that this liar,

981
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:53,532
this cynical manipulator,

982
01:12:54,036 --> 01:12:56,903
turns to you to help him
out of his jam.

983
01:12:57,248 --> 01:12:59,034
Fat-assed son of a bitch.

984
01:13:00,626 --> 01:13:03,459
So who... who actually...

985
01:13:03,713 --> 01:13:05,669
Who? Who?

986
01:13:06,465 --> 01:13:07,875
I don't know who.

987
01:13:07,967 --> 01:13:11,130
But the point is that if Mr.
Prosecutor over there

988
01:13:11,262 --> 01:13:14,720
had devoted half the time he's
spent persecuting this woman...

989
01:13:14,807 --> 01:13:18,846
To even the most cursory
investigation of this schmo's past,

990
01:13:19,562 --> 01:13:21,052
then we might know who.

991
01:13:21,147 --> 01:13:26,141
But we can't know who. We can't
know what really happened.

992
01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:28,567
Because the more you look,
the less you know.

993
01:13:31,324 --> 01:13:33,406
But the beauty of it is...

994
01:13:34,118 --> 01:13:36,029
We don't gotta know.

995
01:13:37,580 --> 01:13:41,539
We just gotta show that, god
damn it, they don't know.

996
01:13:42,335 --> 01:13:47,329
Because of Fritz, or Werner... or
whatever the hell his name is.

997
01:13:50,843 --> 01:13:52,583
Freddy riedenschneider
sees daylight.

998
01:13:53,638 --> 01:13:56,220
We got a real shot at this, folks.
Let's not get cocky.

999
01:13:56,474 --> 01:13:57,634
Comin' out!

1000
01:14:12,073 --> 01:14:14,860
Big Dave.

1001
01:14:20,748 --> 01:14:22,739
What a dope.

1002
01:14:29,674 --> 01:14:32,211
Ed: So, maybe riedenschneider
could fix it for Doris.

1003
01:14:32,468 --> 01:14:34,834
Maybe it would all work out.

1004
01:14:34,929 --> 01:14:36,920
And I thought,

1005
01:14:38,724 --> 01:14:40,464
I hoped,

1006
01:14:40,559 --> 01:14:44,143
that maybe there was a
way out for me as well.

1007
01:14:44,271 --> 01:14:45,932
He was deaf when he wrote this.

1008
01:14:48,025 --> 01:14:49,105
Ed: Who?

1009
01:14:50,736 --> 01:14:52,021
Beethoven.

1010
01:14:53,948 --> 01:14:56,530
He created it, but he never
actually heard it.

1011
01:14:57,785 --> 01:15:00,822
I guess he just heard it all
in his head somehow.

1012
01:15:08,546 --> 01:15:11,879
Ed: The girl had talent.
Anyone could see that.

1013
01:15:11,966 --> 01:15:14,127
And she wasn't
some fly-by-nighter.

1014
01:15:14,218 --> 01:15:16,675
She was just a good, clean kid.

1015
01:15:16,762 --> 01:15:19,629
If she was going to have a career,
she'd need a responsible adult

1016
01:15:19,765 --> 01:15:21,676
looking out for her,

1017
01:15:21,934 --> 01:15:25,347
some kind of manager.

1018
01:15:25,438 --> 01:15:28,680
She'd have contracts to look
at, be going out on tours,

1019
01:15:28,774 --> 01:15:30,810
playing on the radio, maybe.

1020
01:15:30,901 --> 01:15:34,689
I could help her sort through all that
without charging her an arm and a leg.

1021
01:15:34,947 --> 01:15:36,357
Just enough to get by.

1022
01:15:40,995 --> 01:15:43,361
Then I could be with her,

1023
01:15:43,456 --> 01:15:45,697
enough to keep myself
feeling okay.

1024
01:15:47,835 --> 01:15:50,247
Why couldn't that work?

1025
01:15:50,588 --> 01:15:51,953
Why not?

1026
01:15:58,596 --> 01:16:01,053
Birdy: Hi, Mr. crane.
Hello, birdy.

1027
01:16:04,268 --> 01:16:05,724
I thought that was real good.

1028
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:09,683
Yeah, I messed up
a little bit on the agitato,

1029
01:16:09,774 --> 01:16:12,811
but if nobody noticed,
then it's okay.

1030
01:16:16,697 --> 01:16:19,234
Oh, this is a friend of mine.

1031
01:16:19,325 --> 01:16:22,488
Tony, Mr. crane.

1032
01:16:23,913 --> 01:16:27,201
Hello, Tony. Hello, sir.

1033
01:16:39,637 --> 01:16:41,844
Well.

1034
01:16:43,516 --> 01:16:45,677
Congratulations.

1035
01:16:48,562 --> 01:16:50,723
Think I'll be getting home now.

1036
01:16:52,608 --> 01:16:56,146
It was... nice to meet you, sir.

1037
01:16:56,237 --> 01:16:57,568
You too, Tony.

1038
01:17:02,243 --> 01:17:04,450
Ed: Why couldn't it work?

1039
01:17:04,537 --> 01:17:08,246
Anyway, that's what I was thinking
in the days leading up to the trial.

1040
01:17:08,541 --> 01:17:11,499
It seemed like once that was over,
I'd be ready for a new start.

1041
01:17:12,545 --> 01:17:14,752
Freddy riedenschneider
was busy preparing.

1042
01:17:14,839 --> 01:17:16,045
He was very optimistic.

1043
01:17:17,258 --> 01:17:21,251
And finally it came...
The first day of the trial,

1044
01:17:21,387 --> 01:17:25,221
what riedenschneider called
"the big show."

1045
01:17:37,194 --> 01:17:40,061
Where's the judge?
How come there's no judge?

1046
01:17:41,198 --> 01:17:42,654
Where's the judge, ed?

1047
01:17:43,617 --> 01:17:45,733
Riedenschneider.

1048
01:17:46,162 --> 01:17:47,902
How come the judge
doesn't come out?

1049
01:17:48,706 --> 01:17:52,415
The judge comes in last. He'll
come in when Doris gets here.

1050
01:17:53,252 --> 01:17:57,086
So where's Doris? I thought
we started at 10:00.

1051
01:17:57,464 --> 01:17:59,455
Hey, riedenschneider.
Where's Doris?

1052
01:18:00,426 --> 01:18:02,132
She's late.

1053
01:18:02,219 --> 01:18:04,926
Late? How can she be late?

1054
01:18:06,182 --> 01:18:09,219
She's in prison, ed.
None of us are in prison.

1055
01:18:09,310 --> 01:18:12,723
And yet we're not late.
We're on time, ed.

1056
01:18:13,439 --> 01:18:14,849
How can Doris be late?

1057
01:18:15,191 --> 01:18:16,727
What, they don't have
wake-up calls?

1058
01:18:22,698 --> 01:18:24,654
All rise. No, no.

1059
01:18:25,451 --> 01:18:26,941
Judge: Counselors.

1060
01:18:41,300 --> 01:18:42,460
What's going on, ed?

1061
01:18:43,427 --> 01:18:45,759
I thought there would
be arguments,

1062
01:18:45,846 --> 01:18:47,586
the bailiff and so forth.

1063
01:18:52,394 --> 01:18:54,350
Ed, what is this?

1064
01:18:54,772 --> 01:18:56,558
Is this procedure?

1065
01:19:13,791 --> 01:19:18,535
In the matter of the people v.
Doris crane, case number sr-87249,

1066
01:19:18,837 --> 01:19:21,579
cause now pending
is hereby dismissed...

1067
01:19:21,674 --> 01:19:27,169
Pursuant to California penal code
section 1385. I don't understand it.

1068
01:19:27,596 --> 01:19:30,759
Had a real shot at this.
I could've won this thing.

1069
01:19:30,933 --> 01:19:33,253
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury...
Doesn't make any sense.

1070
01:19:33,435 --> 01:19:35,471
Your service is no longer needed

1071
01:19:35,562 --> 01:19:37,473
and you are now discharged.

1072
01:19:39,108 --> 01:19:40,973
Ed: She'd hanged herself.

1073
01:19:43,529 --> 01:19:47,488
I'd brought her a dress to wear to
court, and she'd used the belt.

1074
01:19:48,033 --> 01:19:51,150
At first I thought she'd figured
out somehow how I fit into it...

1075
01:19:51,287 --> 01:19:54,700
And couldn't stand it, couldn't
stand knowing.

1076
01:19:54,999 --> 01:19:57,536
But that wasn't it,
I'd find out later.

1077
01:20:00,296 --> 01:20:04,380
For now, everything
just seemed ruined.

1078
01:20:05,884 --> 01:20:08,796
Checking out. Ed: Freddy riedenschneider
went back to Sacramento,

1079
01:20:08,887 --> 01:20:10,127
still shaking his head,

1080
01:20:10,222 --> 01:20:13,430
saying it was the biggest disappointment
of his professional career.

1081
01:20:14,518 --> 01:20:16,429
Frankie fell to pieces.

1082
01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:18,511
I suspect he was drinking.

1083
01:20:18,647 --> 01:20:21,013
Anyway, he stopped
coming in to work.

1084
01:20:22,526 --> 01:20:26,314
That left me to keep the place going,
or the bank would've taken it.

1085
01:20:26,488 --> 01:20:28,675
Have to get him off the road, right?
He keeps snapping...

1086
01:20:28,699 --> 01:20:31,281
I was the principal barber now.
Talk about ungrateful.

1087
01:20:31,577 --> 01:20:34,740
I hired a new man for the second chair.
Runs right over the turtle.

1088
01:20:34,830 --> 01:20:38,163
I'd hired the guy who did the least
gabbing when he came in for an interview,

1089
01:20:38,250 --> 01:20:41,913
but I guess the new man had only
kept quiet because he was nervous.

1090
01:20:42,129 --> 01:20:45,233
Once he had the job, he talked from the
minute I opened the shop in the morning...

1091
01:20:45,257 --> 01:20:48,374
Until I locked up at night. He tied
a piece of corn to a string, right?

1092
01:20:48,594 --> 01:20:50,280
Barber: He would wait
for the chicken to eat it.

1093
01:20:50,304 --> 01:20:53,341
Ed: For all I know, he talked
to himself on the way home.

1094
01:20:53,724 --> 01:20:56,090
Barber: The chicken...

1095
01:20:56,935 --> 01:21:00,644
Ed: When I walked home, it seemed
like everyone avoided looking at me,

1096
01:21:00,814 --> 01:21:03,601
as if I'd caught some disease.

1097
01:21:04,109 --> 01:21:08,227
This thing with Doris, nobody
wanted to talk about it.

1098
01:21:10,574 --> 01:21:13,441
It was like I was a ghost
walking down the street.

1099
01:21:15,662 --> 01:21:17,152
And when I got home now,

1100
01:21:21,293 --> 01:21:23,124
the place felt empty.

1101
01:21:30,636 --> 01:21:31,967
I sat in the house,

1102
01:21:35,641 --> 01:21:37,632
but there was nobody there.

1103
01:21:44,274 --> 01:21:45,730
I was a ghost.

1104
01:21:47,736 --> 01:21:49,192
I didn't see anyone.

1105
01:21:49,780 --> 01:21:51,145
No one saw me.

1106
01:21:56,787 --> 01:21:58,277
I was the barber.

1107
01:22:05,504 --> 01:22:06,856
Barber: I had a couple
of eggs over hard

1108
01:22:06,880 --> 01:22:08,441
'cause I don't like it when
they run all over the plate,

1109
01:22:08,465 --> 01:22:10,568
some bacon and potatoes, which
are supposed to come with it.

1110
01:22:10,592 --> 01:22:13,530
And so, I pay for it, and I put the change
in my pocket without really looking...

1111
01:22:13,554 --> 01:22:16,116
'Cause, gosh, who looks at the
change when you eat there every day?

1112
01:22:16,140 --> 01:22:19,507
Two blocks later I look at the change
she gave me. Golly, I'm two bits short.

1113
01:22:19,643 --> 01:22:21,830
Customer: Two bits short. So I
walk back over to linton's,

1114
01:22:21,854 --> 01:22:23,560
find this gal, big argument.

1115
01:22:23,689 --> 01:22:26,329
She doesn't even recall the transaction.
Customer: No recollection.

1116
01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:28,641
Barber: Doesn't recall the transaction.
No recollections.

1117
01:22:28,735 --> 01:22:31,317
So I said, "look, dear.
Go ahead. Look at the menu."

1118
01:22:31,447 --> 01:22:34,405
If you're in before 6:00,
it's the whatchamacallit...

1119
01:22:34,491 --> 01:22:37,574
Barber: The...
Customer: Oh, the...

1120
01:22:38,203 --> 01:22:39,488
Customer: The early
bird special.

1121
01:22:39,580 --> 01:22:41,616
Barber: Yeah, the early riser.

1122
01:22:45,419 --> 01:22:46,454
Crane?

1123
01:22:47,171 --> 01:22:48,331
I'm crane.

1124
01:22:49,673 --> 01:22:52,710
My name's diedrickson,
county medical examiner.

1125
01:22:54,344 --> 01:22:55,424
Yeah?

1126
01:22:58,223 --> 01:23:00,885
I just came by
for an informal chat.

1127
01:23:07,065 --> 01:23:08,976
Why don't I buy you a drink?

1128
01:23:12,738 --> 01:23:13,898
Rye.

1129
01:23:15,157 --> 01:23:16,522
Just coffee.

1130
01:23:17,326 --> 01:23:18,966
You sure you don't want
something stiffer?

1131
01:23:20,162 --> 01:23:21,527
Coffee it is.

1132
01:23:28,086 --> 01:23:31,670
County me does an autopsy
on anyone who dies in custody.

1133
01:23:33,050 --> 01:23:34,836
I don't know if you knew that.

1134
01:23:35,385 --> 01:23:36,385
It's routine.

1135
01:23:38,013 --> 01:23:41,722
Doesn't become a matter of public
record unless there's been foul play.

1136
01:23:42,434 --> 01:23:43,765
However,

1137
01:23:44,353 --> 01:23:46,765
I don't think I'm prohibited
from telling you this.

1138
01:23:47,689 --> 01:23:49,600
Of course, I'm not
obliged to either.

1139
01:23:50,984 --> 01:23:52,599
I just don't know.

1140
01:23:53,695 --> 01:23:55,401
But if I were the man,

1141
01:23:56,281 --> 01:23:57,771
I'd want to be told.

1142
01:24:00,285 --> 01:24:01,650
Told what?

1143
01:24:08,794 --> 01:24:11,536
I'm not here to add to your...

1144
01:24:11,964 --> 01:24:13,955
Thanks.

1145
01:24:25,477 --> 01:24:26,842
Your wife was pregnant.

1146
01:24:28,981 --> 01:24:30,312
First trimester.

1147
01:24:35,195 --> 01:24:36,480
There it is.

1148
01:24:38,657 --> 01:24:39,942
I'm sorry.

1149
01:24:42,536 --> 01:24:45,619
Hell, I hope I've
done the right thing.

1150
01:24:50,460 --> 01:24:54,999
My wife and I had not performed
the sex act in many years.

1151
01:25:09,980 --> 01:25:11,891
Well,

1152
01:25:15,235 --> 01:25:16,850
that's really
none of my business.

1153
01:25:22,367 --> 01:25:23,527
I'm sorry.

1154
01:25:26,163 --> 01:25:27,949
There it is.

1155
01:25:30,626 --> 01:25:32,412
Good luck, crane.

1156
01:25:49,728 --> 01:25:52,310
Ed: Doris and I had never
really talked much.

1157
01:25:53,231 --> 01:25:55,893
I don't think that's
a bad thing necessarily.

1158
01:25:56,568 --> 01:26:00,186
But it was funny.
Now I wanted to talk.

1159
01:26:00,364 --> 01:26:02,571
Now, with everyone gone,

1160
01:26:03,241 --> 01:26:06,574
I was alone with secrets
I didn't want...

1161
01:26:06,703 --> 01:26:08,785
And no one
to tell 'em to anyway.

1162
01:26:10,957 --> 01:26:14,120
I went to see a woman who was supposed
to have powers in communicating

1163
01:26:14,211 --> 01:26:16,793
with those who had "passed
across,” as she called it.

1164
01:26:17,130 --> 01:26:21,499
She said that people who had passed across
were picky about who they'd communicate with.

1165
01:26:21,593 --> 01:26:24,300
Not like most people
you run into on this side.

1166
01:26:24,429 --> 01:26:28,468
So, you needed a guide, someone
with a gift for talking to souls.

1167
01:26:30,435 --> 01:26:31,800
Give me your hand.

1168
01:26:34,856 --> 01:26:37,188
Mmm. Well, first she told me

1169
01:26:37,275 --> 01:26:39,482
that my wife was
in a peaceful place,

1170
01:26:39,569 --> 01:26:41,730
that our souls
were still connected,

1171
01:26:41,947 --> 01:26:43,812
that she'd never
stopped loving me...

1172
01:26:44,116 --> 01:26:46,732
Even though she'd done some
things she wasn't proud of.

1173
01:26:49,246 --> 01:26:51,111
Man, she was reading me
like a book.

1174
01:26:53,417 --> 01:26:56,955
She was a phony,
just another gabber.

1175
01:26:57,045 --> 01:26:59,707
I was turning into
Ann nirdlinger,

1176
01:26:59,965 --> 01:27:01,751
big Dave's wife.

1177
01:27:03,093 --> 01:27:05,209
I had to turn my back
on the old lady,

1178
01:27:05,971 --> 01:27:08,929
on the veils, on the ghosts,

1179
01:27:09,474 --> 01:27:10,805
on the dead,

1180
01:27:11,476 --> 01:27:13,762
before they all sucked me in.

1181
01:27:17,315 --> 01:27:18,930
Jury might like that.

1182
01:27:26,116 --> 01:27:28,823
Ed? How are you holding up?

1183
01:27:30,078 --> 01:27:31,818
Okay, Walter. Thanks.

1184
01:27:33,123 --> 01:27:36,035
I was so damn sorry
to hear about your loss.

1185
01:27:36,126 --> 01:27:38,742
A terrible thing.
It's just damn terrible.

1186
01:27:40,505 --> 01:27:43,463
Birdy's upstairs.
I'm on long-distance, so...

1187
01:27:43,550 --> 01:27:44,835
Sure, Walter.

1188
01:27:50,348 --> 01:27:52,634
Okay. No.

1189
01:27:56,104 --> 01:27:57,469
Hello, birdy.

1190
01:27:58,857 --> 01:28:00,347
Hi, Mr. crane.

1191
01:28:02,194 --> 01:28:05,231
We haven't seen you since...

1192
01:28:07,157 --> 01:28:09,239
We've certainly missed you.

1193
01:28:11,953 --> 01:28:13,818
Birdy, I've been doing
a lot of thinking.

1194
01:28:17,042 --> 01:28:19,875
There are a lot of things that
haven't worked out for me.

1195
01:28:22,047 --> 01:28:24,413
Life has dealt me
some bum cards.

1196
01:28:24,508 --> 01:28:26,694
Or maybe I just haven't played
them right. I don't know.

1197
01:28:26,718 --> 01:28:28,925
Pop doesn't like people
smoking in here.

1198
01:28:34,976 --> 01:28:36,386
I'm sorry.

1199
01:28:37,604 --> 01:28:41,347
Well, sometimes I have a cigarette when
he's away, but never when he's home.

1200
01:28:41,441 --> 01:28:42,931
He can smell it a mile off.

1201
01:28:44,236 --> 01:28:46,477
Well, sure. It's his house.

1202
01:28:47,405 --> 01:28:49,020
That's what he keeps telling me.

1203
01:28:50,575 --> 01:28:53,191
Anyway, my point is,
you're young,

1204
01:28:53,328 --> 01:28:54,488
a kid, really,

1205
01:28:54,704 --> 01:28:56,490
your whole life ahead of you.

1206
01:28:57,833 --> 01:29:01,872
But it's not too soon to start
making opportunities for yourself...

1207
01:29:02,879 --> 01:29:05,495
Before it all washes away.

1208
01:29:08,009 --> 01:29:11,422
Yeah, I guess. Pop says so, too.

1209
01:29:12,222 --> 01:29:14,087
You know, I work
pretty hard at school.

1210
01:29:14,266 --> 01:29:15,756
That's swell.

1211
01:29:16,935 --> 01:29:20,848
However, the music,
if you want to pursue it...

1212
01:29:21,439 --> 01:29:25,227
Well, the lessons from Mrs. swan,
they'll only take you so far.

1213
01:29:25,986 --> 01:29:28,147
There's this guy
in San Francisco.

1214
01:29:29,364 --> 01:29:30,695
I've made inquiries.

1215
01:29:32,576 --> 01:29:34,532
Everybody says he's the best.

1216
01:29:35,912 --> 01:29:38,699
Trained people who've gone on
to big concert careers

1217
01:29:38,790 --> 01:29:40,155
in symphony orchestras,
the works.

1218
01:29:40,250 --> 01:29:41,956
His name is Jacques...

1219
01:29:42,460 --> 01:29:44,246
Carcanogues.

1220
01:29:44,796 --> 01:29:47,708
I'm not sure I'm pronouncing it right.
Anyway, he's a frenchman.

1221
01:29:48,133 --> 01:29:50,795
Oh, boy. A frenchman, huh?
You've got talent.

1222
01:29:51,636 --> 01:29:54,799
Anybody can see that.
And he's the best.

1223
01:29:55,181 --> 01:29:59,220
If he sees a student that he thinks has
talent, he takes them on for next to nothing.

1224
01:29:59,311 --> 01:30:01,097
So, you're a cinch
to be accepted.

1225
01:30:01,313 --> 01:30:05,056
I could cover the cost of the lessons.
Like I said, it's pretty modest.

1226
01:30:05,150 --> 01:30:08,313
Oh, jeez, Mr. crane.
No, I have to do it.

1227
01:30:08,820 --> 01:30:11,903
I can't stand by and watch any
more things go down the drain.

1228
01:30:11,990 --> 01:30:13,855
You're young.
You don't understand.

1229
01:30:13,950 --> 01:30:18,489
Well, jeez, Mr. crane. I hadn't really
thought about a career or stuff.

1230
01:30:20,332 --> 01:30:22,368
Well, I... l know you haven't.

1231
01:30:23,752 --> 01:30:27,165
Look, just go see him
as a favor to me.

1232
01:30:28,882 --> 01:30:30,088
I talked to this guy.

1233
01:30:30,550 --> 01:30:33,587
He loosened up a little bit when I
told him how talented you were.

1234
01:30:33,762 --> 01:30:35,343
He's agreed to see you
this Saturday.

1235
01:30:37,182 --> 01:30:40,595
He said, maybe you're
a diamond in the rough.

1236
01:30:41,645 --> 01:30:42,885
His words.

1237
01:30:43,772 --> 01:30:45,512
Jeez, I don't know, Mr. crane.

1238
01:30:47,984 --> 01:30:50,191
Just go see him
as a favor to me.

1239
01:31:13,093 --> 01:31:14,299
You are the father?

1240
01:31:14,386 --> 01:31:17,628
No, I'm her...
I'm a family friend.

1241
01:31:17,889 --> 01:31:21,723
I am carcanogues.
You will wait, my dear.

1242
01:31:31,695 --> 01:31:33,231
I speak with you
on the phone, no?

1243
01:31:33,321 --> 01:31:36,358
You have a special interest
in music?

1244
01:31:37,742 --> 01:31:38,902
Uh-huh.

1245
01:31:41,663 --> 01:31:42,743
Ah.

1246
01:31:44,416 --> 01:31:45,952
A music lover, alors.

1247
01:31:47,961 --> 01:31:50,543
I don't pretend to be an expert.

1248
01:31:51,589 --> 01:31:52,589
Ah.

1249
01:31:58,430 --> 01:31:59,636
Aha.

1250
01:32:03,309 --> 01:32:06,767
How did she do? She seemed
like a very nice girl.

1251
01:32:09,149 --> 01:32:12,266
She play, monsieur,

1252
01:32:12,944 --> 01:32:14,309
like a very nice girl.

1253
01:32:16,614 --> 01:32:17,614
Stinks.

1254
01:32:18,908 --> 01:32:19,943
Nice girl,

1255
01:32:20,035 --> 01:32:21,150
however, stinks.

1256
01:32:22,996 --> 01:32:24,611
Well, I don't understand.

1257
01:32:24,706 --> 01:32:26,822
Is not so hard to understand.

1258
01:32:26,916 --> 01:32:30,124
Her playing... very polite.

1259
01:32:31,129 --> 01:32:32,619
Did she make mistakes?

1260
01:32:32,714 --> 01:32:35,205
Mistake? No.

1261
01:32:35,300 --> 01:32:37,916
It say "e-flat,"
she play e-flat.

1262
01:32:38,011 --> 01:32:41,219
Ping, ping. She play
the right note always.

1263
01:32:41,306 --> 01:32:43,547
Well, I don't understand.
No mistakes?

1264
01:32:43,641 --> 01:32:46,508
Look, she's just a kid. I thought
you taught these kids to...

1265
01:32:46,603 --> 01:32:48,923
No, no, no, monsieur. That is
what I cannot teach her, huh?

1266
01:32:48,980 --> 01:32:51,062
I cannot teach her
to have the soul.

1267
01:32:51,524 --> 01:32:53,936
Hmm, voyez, monsieur. Look.

1268
01:32:55,904 --> 01:33:00,113
To play the piano
is not about the fingers.

1269
01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:02,316
We make with the fingers.

1270
01:33:07,832 --> 01:33:09,413
But the music, monsieur,

1271
01:33:09,501 --> 01:33:13,835
she come from I'interieur,
from inside, huh?

1272
01:33:15,173 --> 01:33:16,253
The music,

1273
01:33:16,883 --> 01:33:18,669
she starts here.

1274
01:33:19,636 --> 01:33:21,843
She come out through here.

1275
01:33:22,263 --> 01:33:25,426
Hmm? Then perhaps,

1276
01:33:25,642 --> 01:33:26,757
perhaps,

1277
01:33:27,352 --> 01:33:30,185
she can go here.

1278
01:33:34,359 --> 01:33:37,101
Like I said, I'm not an expert.

1279
01:33:37,195 --> 01:33:40,733
So, you can listen to me,
for I am expert.

1280
01:33:42,325 --> 01:33:46,113
Voyez, monsieur.
This girl, nice girl.

1281
01:33:46,204 --> 01:33:49,696
Very clever hands. Nice girl.

1282
01:33:49,791 --> 01:33:52,874
I think, perhaps some day...

1283
01:33:54,170 --> 01:33:57,913
She can make
very good typist, huh?

1284
01:33:58,007 --> 01:34:02,171
Tat, tat, tat, tat,
tat, tat, tat.

1285
01:34:03,054 --> 01:34:04,214
Voila.

1286
01:34:12,897 --> 01:34:15,604
I stank, didn't 1?
He didn't say that.

1287
01:34:15,692 --> 01:34:18,274
No, but more or less.

1288
01:34:20,238 --> 01:34:23,822
Look, I'm no expert, but there must be a
dozen teachers better than this clown.

1289
01:34:23,908 --> 01:34:26,069
No, look, really...
More qualified.

1290
01:34:26,578 --> 01:34:27,738
Goddamn phony.

1291
01:34:29,164 --> 01:34:30,574
Really, it's okay.

1292
01:34:30,915 --> 01:34:33,748
I'm not interested in playing
music professionally.

1293
01:34:35,545 --> 01:34:37,786
You know, I'm not sure
I want a career at all,

1294
01:34:37,881 --> 01:34:40,463
and if I did, I'd probably
be a veterinarian.

1295
01:34:44,304 --> 01:34:46,135
Veterinarian. Yeah.

1296
01:34:48,141 --> 01:34:50,302
Birdy: But I do appreciate
your interest.

1297
01:34:51,603 --> 01:34:52,888
It was nothing.

1298
01:34:53,104 --> 01:34:55,937
I wish I'd played better
for you 'cause, you know,

1299
01:34:56,024 --> 01:34:58,185
I know it would've
made you real happy.

1300
01:35:02,447 --> 01:35:03,778
You know what you are?

1301
01:35:05,200 --> 01:35:06,280
What?

1302
01:35:06,659 --> 01:35:08,445
You're an enthusiast.

1303
01:35:12,373 --> 01:35:13,783
Yeah, maybe.

1304
01:35:21,007 --> 01:35:24,625
You know, I really do appreciate
the interest you've taken.

1305
01:35:31,809 --> 01:35:34,801
Birdy. I just wanted
to make you happy.

1306
01:35:35,605 --> 01:35:38,267
Birdy. No, it's really okay.
I wanna do it.

1307
01:35:38,358 --> 01:35:39,973
Birdy! No, it's okay, really.

1308
01:35:40,068 --> 01:35:42,730
No! No! No! Mr. crane, I wanna do it.
Mr. crane!

1309
01:35:42,820 --> 01:35:44,632
Birdy, please don't do that!
Mr. crane, please!

1310
01:35:44,656 --> 01:35:47,864
Heavens to Betsy, birdy!
Please, Mr. crane.

1311
01:35:57,418 --> 01:36:00,000
Ed: Time slows down
right before an accident,

1312
01:36:00,797 --> 01:36:02,833
and I had time
to think about things.

1313
01:36:06,010 --> 01:36:09,628
I thought about what an
undertaker had told me once,

1314
01:36:09,722 --> 01:36:13,590
that your hair keeps growing,
for a while, anyway,

1315
01:36:13,851 --> 01:36:17,264
after you die.

1316
01:36:18,022 --> 01:36:19,978
And then it stops.

1317
01:36:24,362 --> 01:36:28,105
I thought,
"what keeps it growing?”

1318
01:36:29,742 --> 01:36:32,404
Is it like a plant in soil?

1319
01:36:33,705 --> 01:36:35,070
What goes out of the soil?

1320
01:36:36,124 --> 01:36:37,364
The soul?

1321
01:36:39,711 --> 01:36:42,544
And when does the hair
realize that it's gone?

1322
01:37:33,139 --> 01:37:34,345
Hello!

1323
01:37:35,266 --> 01:37:37,598
I noticed you still have
pea stone in your driveway.

1324
01:37:39,437 --> 01:37:42,520
Of course you have to rejuvenate that
every couple of years, don't you?

1325
01:37:42,607 --> 01:37:43,972
When the pea stone thins out?

1326
01:37:45,193 --> 01:37:47,149
Man: Ha. Where does it go, huh?

1327
01:37:47,779 --> 01:37:49,144
Like the odd sock.

1328
01:37:50,114 --> 01:37:51,633
'Course, you know where it goes.
Don't ya?

1329
01:37:51,657 --> 01:37:54,740
You probably pick pieces of it
off your lawn all the time,

1330
01:37:54,827 --> 01:37:58,490
churn it up with your lawn mower,
sweep it off your porch there.

1331
01:37:58,581 --> 01:37:59,741
Pain in the neck.

1332
01:38:01,084 --> 01:38:02,244
Never bothered me.

1333
01:38:02,335 --> 01:38:04,542
Man: Well, have you ever
considered tarmacadam?

1334
01:38:04,629 --> 01:38:07,291
People think it's just for public
works or commercial purposes,

1335
01:38:07,382 --> 01:38:10,715
but we have the technology now
to bring it to the homeowner,

1336
01:38:10,802 --> 01:38:13,464
individual consumer,
at very competitive prices.

1337
01:38:13,554 --> 01:38:17,797
Mind if I show you the specifications?
Afternoon, ma'am.

1338
01:38:18,476 --> 01:38:19,886
What are you selling?

1339
01:38:22,647 --> 01:38:25,229
Ma'am, I was just telling your
husband here about tarmacadam...

1340
01:38:25,316 --> 01:38:26,647
For your home driveway here.

1341
01:38:27,693 --> 01:38:30,856
Here's the brochure.
It's the modern way to...

1342
01:38:31,614 --> 01:38:32,614
Get lost.

1343
01:38:48,506 --> 01:38:49,621
Jesus.

1344
01:39:44,061 --> 01:39:46,052
Doris... no.

1345
01:39:47,190 --> 01:39:49,727
Don't say anything. I'm fine.

1346
01:39:59,827 --> 01:40:01,307
Man: Mr. crane?

1347
01:40:02,246 --> 01:40:03,406
Mr crane?

1348
01:40:05,416 --> 01:40:06,496
Mr. crane.

1349
01:40:07,376 --> 01:40:08,991
Mr. crane?

1350
01:40:13,424 --> 01:40:14,504
Mr. crane?

1351
01:40:19,805 --> 01:40:20,920
Are you awake?

1352
01:40:23,392 --> 01:40:24,757
He's comin' around.

1353
01:40:26,896 --> 01:40:29,603
Can you talk, sir?
These men have to talk to you.

1354
01:40:29,690 --> 01:40:32,227
Doctor: Are you awake? Sir?

1355
01:40:32,610 --> 01:40:34,692
Doctor: He's awake. Go ahead.

1356
01:40:34,779 --> 01:40:37,862
Persky: Are you awake?
Is he awake?

1357
01:40:38,115 --> 01:40:41,573
Crane, as soon as you're conscious,
we have to tell you that...

1358
01:40:41,661 --> 01:40:44,903
Is he conscious?
His eyes are open.

1359
01:40:45,540 --> 01:40:46,950
You're under arrest.

1360
01:40:47,041 --> 01:40:49,202
Persky: Soon as the doctor
lets us, we gotta move you.

1361
01:40:49,293 --> 01:40:52,501
Does he understand that? We're supposed
to tell him. Are you conscious?

1362
01:40:53,381 --> 01:40:56,123
They'll take you to the prison hospital.
Under arrest for murder.

1363
01:40:58,803 --> 01:40:59,883
Birdy.

1364
01:41:01,013 --> 01:41:02,013
What?

1365
01:41:02,098 --> 01:41:03,713
What'd he say? Ed: Birdy.

1366
01:41:03,808 --> 01:41:06,845
Birdy. The girl.
No, the girl's okay.

1367
01:41:06,936 --> 01:41:10,929
Broken clavicle. That's a
collarbone, crane. It's broken.

1368
01:41:11,065 --> 01:41:13,465
Doctor: She's okay, though.
Persky: So, he understands, then,

1369
01:41:13,526 --> 01:41:15,062
that he's under arrest
for murder?

1370
01:41:15,820 --> 01:41:17,685
Big Dave.

1371
01:41:17,822 --> 01:41:21,064
Huh? What? What'd he say?

1372
01:41:21,617 --> 01:41:24,609
Persky: He said okay.
Is that what he said?

1373
01:41:26,998 --> 01:41:30,286
You're under arrest for the
murder of creighton tolliver.

1374
01:41:30,751 --> 01:41:34,243
You understand that?
Krebs: Does he understand?

1375
01:41:36,257 --> 01:41:37,372
Ed: The pansy.

1376
01:41:40,136 --> 01:41:44,345
A kid diving in a water hole
outside of town had found his car.

1377
01:41:44,432 --> 01:41:46,388
They winched it out...

1378
01:41:46,475 --> 01:41:49,888
And found he'd been beaten,
just like big Dave said.

1379
01:41:51,689 --> 01:41:53,520
Beaten to death.

1380
01:41:55,818 --> 01:41:59,356
Inside his briefcase were the
partnership papers I'd signed,

1381
01:42:00,364 --> 01:42:02,776
showing that I'd
given him 10 grand.

1382
01:42:04,368 --> 01:42:07,326
For the district attorney,
that made it fall into place.

1383
01:42:08,164 --> 01:42:10,621
I'd gotten Doris
to steal the money.

1384
01:42:10,708 --> 01:42:14,997
The pansy had gotten wise somehow, so
I had to kill him to cover my tracks.

1385
01:42:17,632 --> 01:42:19,372
People v. Edward crane.

1386
01:42:19,467 --> 01:42:22,550
Ed: I was in a spot. You are
charged in a one-count complaint

1387
01:42:22,637 --> 01:42:25,317
that alleges as follows... ed: I
called in Freddy riedenschneider...

1388
01:42:25,473 --> 01:42:27,714
And signed the house
over to him.

1389
01:42:28,601 --> 01:42:30,717
He said he didn't ordinarily
work that cheap,

1390
01:42:30,895 --> 01:42:34,012
but he figured he owed me something
since the last one hadn't played out.

1391
01:42:34,398 --> 01:42:36,980
How do you now plead? We plead
not guilty, your honor.

1392
01:42:37,068 --> 01:42:40,231
Ed: I tried to tell him the whole
story, but riedenschneider stopped me.

1393
01:42:40,571 --> 01:42:42,482
He said the story
made his head hurt.

1394
01:42:42,573 --> 01:42:45,385
And anyway, he didn't see any way of using
it without putting me on the hot seat

1395
01:42:45,409 --> 01:42:46,774
for the murder of big Dave.

1396
01:42:46,869 --> 01:42:48,951
Trial date is set
for Monday a week.

1397
01:42:51,332 --> 01:42:52,993
Ed: He told me not
to worry, though.

1398
01:42:53,084 --> 01:42:54,449
Said he'd think of something.

1399
01:42:56,962 --> 01:42:59,248
They put me
on 24-hour death watch,

1400
01:42:59,965 --> 01:43:03,253
so that I couldn't cheat justice
like they said my wife had done.

1401
01:43:05,429 --> 01:43:08,296
But in front of the jury, they
had it that Doris was a Saint.

1402
01:43:08,599 --> 01:43:10,555
The whole plan had been mine.

1403
01:43:11,435 --> 01:43:15,769
I was a svengali who had forced Doris
to join my criminal enterprise.

1404
01:43:16,482 --> 01:43:18,814
A careful...
Ed: On and on it went,

1405
01:43:18,943 --> 01:43:22,310
how I'd used Doris, then let
her take the fall. That man!

1406
01:43:23,114 --> 01:43:26,606
That stuff smarted because some
of it was close to being true.

1407
01:43:29,787 --> 01:43:31,618
Ed: And then it was
riedenschneider's turn.

1408
01:43:40,548 --> 01:43:44,461
Ladies and gentlemen, members of
the jury, citizens of Santa Rosa,

1409
01:43:44,593 --> 01:43:48,131
we've just heard from the district
attorney a rather lurid description...

1410
01:43:48,597 --> 01:43:50,087
Of a truly despicable man.

1411
01:43:50,182 --> 01:43:53,766
Ed: I gotta hand it to him. He
tossed a lot of sand in their eyes.

1412
01:43:54,311 --> 01:43:57,348
He talked about how I'd lost
my place in the universe,

1413
01:43:57,440 --> 01:44:01,900
the character drawn. Ed: How I was too
ordinary to be the criminal mastermind

1414
01:44:01,986 --> 01:44:03,601
the da made me out to be,

1415
01:44:03,696 --> 01:44:07,609
how there was some greater scheme at
work that the state had yet to unravel.

1416
01:44:07,950 --> 01:44:10,987
Is it that simple? Ed: And he threw
in some of the old truth stuff

1417
01:44:11,078 --> 01:44:13,194
he hadn't had the chance
to trot out for Doris.

1418
01:44:13,289 --> 01:44:16,497
May at first look at these lines and see
only the chaos of a work of modern art.

1419
01:44:16,584 --> 01:44:21,328
But it is your job... ed: He told
them to look at me, look at me close.

1420
01:44:21,922 --> 01:44:25,005
That the closer they looked, the
less sense it would all make.

1421
01:44:25,092 --> 01:44:28,505
This human, this barber.

1422
01:44:28,971 --> 01:44:31,383
Ed: That I wasn't the kind
of guy to kill a guy,

1423
01:44:32,183 --> 01:44:34,139
that I was the barber,
for Christ's sake.

1424
01:44:35,186 --> 01:44:38,223
I was just like them,
an ordinary man.

1425
01:44:38,689 --> 01:44:41,897
Guilty of living in a world
that had no place for me, yeah.

1426
01:44:41,984 --> 01:44:45,727
Guilty of wanting to be a dry
cleaner, sure. But not of murder.

1427
01:44:45,988 --> 01:44:49,276
But most specifically,
this is a barber's dilemma.

1428
01:44:50,409 --> 01:44:52,650
For he is modern man.

1429
01:44:52,745 --> 01:44:54,781
Ed: He said I was modern man.

1430
01:44:54,872 --> 01:44:56,408
He is your reflection.

1431
01:44:56,540 --> 01:44:58,280
Ed: And if they voted
to convict me,

1432
01:44:58,375 --> 01:45:01,492
well, they'd be practically cinching
the noose around their own necks.

1433
01:45:02,421 --> 01:45:06,380
He told them to look not at the facts,
but at the meaning of the facts.

1434
01:45:06,675 --> 01:45:09,007
And then he said
the facts had no meaning.

1435
01:45:09,678 --> 01:45:12,465
It was a pretty good speech
and even had me going,

1436
01:45:12,556 --> 01:45:14,717
until Frankie interrupted it.

1437
01:45:16,060 --> 01:45:19,223
What kind of man are you?

1438
01:45:19,563 --> 01:45:22,475
What kind of man are you?

1439
01:45:22,566 --> 01:45:24,648
Move for a mistrial! Your honor!

1440
01:45:24,735 --> 01:45:27,067
What kind of man are you?
Move for a mistrial.

1441
01:45:27,154 --> 01:45:30,817
Ed: Well, he got his mistrial,
but the well had run dry.

1442
01:45:31,075 --> 01:45:33,595
The court will come to order. There
was nothing left to mortgage.

1443
01:45:33,619 --> 01:45:37,487
Riedenschneider went home, and the
court appointed Lloyd garroway,

1444
01:45:37,581 --> 01:45:39,537
who threw me
on the mercy of the court.

1445
01:45:39,625 --> 01:45:42,492
Your honor, we plead guilty...

1446
01:45:42,586 --> 01:45:45,874
With extenuating circumstances.

1447
01:45:45,965 --> 01:45:48,422
Ed: It was my only chance,
he said.

1448
01:45:48,717 --> 01:45:50,673
I guess that meant
I never had a chance.

1449
01:45:50,761 --> 01:45:52,752
Judge: Arguments of the defense.

1450
01:45:52,847 --> 01:45:54,257
Certain facts
have been clearly...

1451
01:45:54,348 --> 01:45:59,593
Ed: He wasn't buying any of that modern
man stuff, or the uncertainty stuff,

1452
01:45:59,770 --> 01:46:01,601
or any of the mercy stuff
either.

1453
01:46:01,689 --> 01:46:03,270
This man is a menace to society.

1454
01:46:03,941 --> 01:46:05,977
Ed: Nope, he was going
by the book...

1455
01:46:06,068 --> 01:46:09,105
It is the judgment of this court, and
in so doing... and the book said...

1456
01:46:09,196 --> 01:46:12,814
I got the chair. He has forfeited
the right to his own life.

1457
01:46:13,117 --> 01:46:14,357
Ed: So, here I am.

1458
01:46:15,452 --> 01:46:17,784
At first I didn't know
how I got here.

1459
01:46:18,080 --> 01:46:20,196
I knew step by step, of course,

1460
01:46:20,291 --> 01:46:23,454
which is what I've told you,
step by step.

1461
01:46:24,461 --> 01:46:26,452
But I couldn't see any pattern.

1462
01:46:28,132 --> 01:46:30,999
Now that I'm near the end, I'm
glad that this men's magazine

1463
01:46:31,093 --> 01:46:32,629
paid me to tell my story.

1464
01:46:33,429 --> 01:46:35,841
Writing it has helped me
sort it all out.

1465
01:46:36,307 --> 01:46:37,797
They're paying me
five cents a word,

1466
01:46:37,892 --> 01:46:41,225
so you'll pardon me if sometimes I've
told you more than you wanted to know.

1467
01:46:41,353 --> 01:46:46,063
But now all the
disconnected things seem to hook up.

1468
01:46:47,192 --> 01:46:49,558
That's the funny thing
about going away,

1469
01:46:50,112 --> 01:46:51,818
knowing the date
you're going to die.

1470
01:46:53,407 --> 01:46:56,149
And the men's magazine wanted
me to tell how that felt.

1471
01:47:23,020 --> 01:47:27,263
Well, it's like pulling away
from the maze.

1472
01:47:28,651 --> 01:47:31,393
While you're in the maze,
you go through Willy-nilly,

1473
01:47:31,487 --> 01:47:33,694
turning where you think
you have to turn,

1474
01:47:36,283 --> 01:47:38,194
one thing after another.

1475
01:47:43,540 --> 01:47:45,496
But you get some distance on it,

1476
01:47:45,668 --> 01:47:47,704
and all those twists and turns,

1477
01:47:48,379 --> 01:47:52,372
why, they're the shape
of your life.

1478
01:47:53,968 --> 01:47:55,924
It's hard to explain.

1479
01:47:58,847 --> 01:48:01,839
But seeing it whole
gives you some peace.

1480
01:48:36,093 --> 01:48:39,585
The men's magazine
also asked about remorse.

1481
01:48:40,597 --> 01:48:43,760
Yeah, I guess I'm sorry about
the pain I caused other people.

1482
01:48:45,352 --> 01:48:47,684
But I don't regret anything.

1483
01:48:48,022 --> 01:48:49,978
Not a thing.

1484
01:48:50,149 --> 01:48:51,685
I used to.

1485
01:48:51,775 --> 01:48:54,107
I used to regret
being the barber.

1486
01:49:59,510 --> 01:50:01,421
I don't know
where I'm being taken.

1487
01:50:03,972 --> 01:50:06,554
I don't know what I'll find
beyond the earth and sky,

1488
01:50:08,227 --> 01:50:10,138
but I'm not afraid to go.

1489
01:50:11,355 --> 01:50:14,518
Maybe the things I don't
understand will be clearer there,

1490
01:50:14,858 --> 01:50:16,564
like when a fog blows away.

1491
01:50:19,863 --> 01:50:21,899
Maybe Doris will be there.

1492
01:50:22,866 --> 01:50:26,233
And maybe there
I can tell her...

1493
01:50:26,745 --> 01:50:28,201
All those things...

1494
01:50:29,706 --> 01:50:31,617
They don't have words for here.
