- Hey, hey!

Not the little girl in

the lederhosen, the Hollywood Madam.

I understand.

Steve.

What do you say we blow this pop stand

and take a ride, huh?

Okay.

Ah, that feels good, huh?

Do you like my suit?

I wore this when I went

to the White House.

I put it on tonight, Heidi, because I have

something very important to say to you.

What's up?

I want you to understand this.

What the law will do to you is nothing

compared what will happen to you...

if you go public.

Like what? I won't be invited

to pool parties anymore?

I do not want to be known as a sicko

who has to pay for sex.

The reputations of the people that

you are playing with...

are worth hundreds

of millions of dollars, multibillions.

There are agents involved, executives.

It has taken us a lot of years

to build up what we have.

Their lives,

the lives of their families...

depend on these good reputations.

The pinheads out there

in flyover country...

are just dying to see this town

turned on its uppers.

So, if you think we are going to let

some little coked-out girl...

ruin all that, you're wrong.

They're gonna pay me seven figures, Steve.

You want to go on living

in this town, right?

You don't want to be a nonperson.

What do you want me to do?

You're a celebrity now.

Welcome to the club.

You won't be

the wackiest figure on the scene...

but you go tojail,

you do your time, you come out.

You'll still be a star.

Heidi, a star

can always make money.

You'll still be my friend?

Don't be silly.

- Did I wake you up?

- Yeah, what time is it?

Late. I need you to do something.

Heidi, you know I'd do

anything you want.

I was alone.

My father couldn't see me.

Steve wouldn't see me.

Ivan betrayed me.

And on the first day of my trial,

Alex outdid them all.

She died.

When it came down to it,

none of my Hollywood

friends came to support me in court.

Will the defendant rise?

Heidi Lynn Fleiss, I'm sentencing you

to seven years in penitentiary.

I know it seems like an overly harsh term...

but I wanted to reflect this community's

disapproval of what you've done.

Immorality, such as yours, is a threat

to the families of this nation...

and I want this sentence

to act as a deterrent...

to others who might think

of following your example.

Remove the prisoner.

When I rewind my life, most of it is a blur.

I had a lot of time

to think about my past...

when I was locked up and hanging out

with a different group of girls.

I do remember being

a very moral madam.

You know, it's called

the world's oldest profession.

How many girls? Send me the airfare

and I'll have them in Paris tomorrow.

I'm not really sure

if they mean prostitution...

- Tina, where are you?

- or betrayal.

I'm gonna need you

in Hong Kong on Tuesday.

Kim and Wendy will

meet you at the airport.

No, not the hotel, the airport.

If you realize

most women are evil, rotten b*tches...

most men are predictable pigs...

and someone else is always going to be

on a morality crusade...

it should be easy

to sit back, relax and smile.

Be optimistic,

because you know what's out there.

Steve was right.

After I got out, I still had a life.

You know what?

The world is not such a bad place...

and we're lucky to be here.
