You won't know that
until you testify.
You're a good man, Tracy.
I want to do the right thing.
Come here.
What's the hurry?
Where's the fire?
Throwing a ball, big deal.
Tess, this is...
I know who she is.
Hello, Miss Mahoney.
You must be Miss Trueheart.
Tracy's told me
so much about you.
Oh?
He doesn't know so
awfully much about me.
Thanks for coming by.
We'll be in touch, Tracy.
Right.
Miss Trueheart.
What a cute little boy.
I'll bet she does some
nifty undercover work.
We're making our move
on the Club Ritz tonight.
Is this pistachio?
That's what I call a dame.
What was she doing here?
I'm trying to get her to testify.
You ought to let me talk to her.
Is this 88 Keys?
I got a deal for ya.
Meet me at the City
Car Barn in one hour.
That's right, one hour.
Up here, 88.
Open the suitcase.
You want to know
why I called you?
$5000, your first payment.
For what?
You work for Big Boy now.
You want to make a lot
of money helping him?
Yes or no?
Yeah.
Give that letter to Big Boy.
Tell him you found it
under your door.
Who do I tell him
you are?
You don't.
Because you never saw me.
Don't try to find me.
I'll call you.
Make the deal.
"If you kill Dick Tracy...
"you will be the prime suspect,
"and the city
will mobilize against you.
"For 10% of your business,
"we guarantee Dick Tracy
won't be a problem any more.
You will not be
suspected of anything."
What can you lose?
They don't deliver,
you don't pay.
You're a piano player.
What do you want to be,
a radish?
Don't bring me a deal
you don't know
how to get to.
Get him out of here.
Got a match?
- What was that all about?
- My income tax.
Hey!
Come here.
Want me to follow him?
Where? To the piano?
That was none
of your business.
Come here.
I'm your business.
Okay, Numbers,
let's see your numbers.
Where do you
think you're going?
Come on, Tracy.
Take me with you.
Get back in there,
and brush your teeth.
Go on.
Wish me luck tonight.
I'll see you later.
Move in and
take your positions.
Sooner or later
I've got to hand it
to you, Big Boy.
You've got the best
broads in town, top drawer.
Come in, Tracy.
Come in.
- [Radio] This is Tracy, Sam.
- We made it.
Careful, Tracy.
All set.
Okay, boys. Let's go.
[Alarm]
All right,
I've got it under control.
Relax, please.
Everybody, it's okay.
No, no.
I've got it under control.
Everything's under control.
Just sit down. Relax.
Everything's all right.
Bill, that side.
Frank, cover the bar.
Hello, Big Boy.
The gang's all here.
Class reunion?
This is a private party,
invitation only.
Here's my invitation,
a search warrant.
No gambling, no nothing.
You thought
we had gambling?
I wouldn't be caught
dead near gambling!
I'll be back.
Tell me when you're coming.
I'll have a big party.
- Let's go, boys.
- Right, Tracy.
You said you'd
take care of Tracy.
He didn't look around.
Did you notice?
- Yeah.
- I don't get it.
- How'd it go?
- Clockwork.
Let's hope he thinks
I'm too stupid...
to look under tables.
[Tracy]
I am going to get him.
It's just a question of when.
Sooner or later
Baby, it's time
Get over to
132 Broad Street.
132 Broad Street.
132 Broad Street.
Right!
Tracy has struck hard
at the heart of the gang empire.
I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna love you
Sooner is better
This time I'm
Tracy, Tracy,
Tracy, Tracy!
Everywhere I turn...
it's Tracy, Tracy,
Tracy!
It's like he's reading my mind.
Texie Garcia...
Ribs Mocca, Johnny Ramm,
and now de Santo.
How could he
catch them so fast?
I don't understand.
He knows what we're doing...
before we do it.
You said you'd
take care of Tracy.
"Leave it to me,"
you said.
Let me tell you something.
I'm taking him out
of the headlines.
I'm rubbing him out!
You kill Tracy,
This...
[Whispering]
We're being bugged.
We're being bugged.
We're being bugged.
What'd you put in this chili,
melted rubber?
Sometimes I wonder...
why I slave over
a hot stove for you.
Okay, Freddy. Get down
to the southside warehouse.
Big pay-off!
Tracy, I'm leaving.
I used to be afraid that...
maybe you'd never take
some time and settle down,
and now I know it.
I knew you'd never
want a desk job, Tracy.
[Radio]
Calling Dick Tracy.
Do you read me, Tracy?
You've got Big Boy
on the run, and that's good.
Calling Dick Tracy.
Calling Dick Tracy.
Tracy...
good luck.
Come in, Tracy.
This is Bug Bailey.
Do you read me?
What is it?
There's something going on
at the southside warehouse.
Go on.
Tracy, come in.
Go on.
Are you there?
Better get over there.
I'm on my way.
I'll be back, Tess.
[Pruneface]
Reload.
All right! That's enough!
I want him dead!
Both of them!
I want this No-Face dead
and Tracy dead.
What's the matter?
You forgot how to kill people?
Doesn't your work
mean anything to you any more?
Have you no sense...
of pride in what you do?
No sense of duty?
No sense of destiny?
I'm lookin' for generals!
What do I got?
Foot soldiers!
I want Dick Tracy dead!
If you say there was
a man with no face,
I'll bet the mortgage there was.
But who's he working for?
I don't know.
Get my suit cleaned.
We need a witness
who'll testify.
- A man with no face?
- A man with no face.
What can you lose,
Big Boy?
They want to get rid
of Tracy as much as you.
It only costs you 10%.
- What can you lose?
- Okay, piano player.
You've got a deal.
Give the kid a doughnut.
Hi, Tracy.
- Hi, Tracy.
- Where's Tess?
She's out of town.
She asked me
and the boys...
to take care of the kid till
they take him to the orphanage.
Tess went out of town?
Sorry, I thought you knew.
Want me to take the kid
back to the precinct?
No, Chief. Thanks a lot.
Good night.
Tracy,
want a doughnut?
Uh, yeah. Thanks.
Mike, let me have a coffee.
Coffee.
One for me too.
[88 Keys]
And just wants to
As a friend
At least now
Cheer up, Tracy.
I'm the one in danger.
I shouldn't be
talking to a cop.
- You know what I want.
- I want to hear you say it.
- I don't want you hurt.
- Don't tell me what you don't want.
Tell me what you do want.
You want me.
Don't you?
You're right.
I do want you... in court.
You're lying.
You want me the same way I want you.
You want me to take a risk?
I want you to take a risk.
I'll protect you.
It's my job.
I don't know about your job.
I only know what I feel.
If you can't tell me how you feel,
I can't trust you.
Wait a minute.
What do you
want me to admit?
Okay, I admit it.
- Testify.
- You want my testimony?
Tell me you want me.
If you do that,
I'll do anything.
How bad do you
want Big Boy?
It's up to you.
Tell me you want me.
Tell me you want it all,
but tell me now.
If I say that,
I'll hurt somebody I don't want to.
You trust her.
