Mad Money Page #7

examiner.

Mindy Arbogast called

of course.

He's talking to

all of our neighbors.

What was he asking?

How we make our money.

What I do for a living.

Are you sure it's

the same guy from the party?

Yes. Yes, I am sure it's

the guy from the party.

All right.

What we need to do

is we need to talk

to a lawyer.

We'll give ourselves up.

We are not going

to do that. Mm-mmm.

No. No, no, honey,

listen to me.

Look, we still have most

of the money, right?

So we'll give it back,

and we'll negotiate

some kind of,

you know,

suspended sentences

or something like that,

all right?

Don, I can't do that.

We cannot do that.

Bridget, please.

Look...

We have so few

cards to play.

Honey, it's not

shoplifting.

It's a federal crime.

Don! We can't turn

ourselves in because...

they're gonna take

Nina's kids away.

And, uh...

she'd kill me.

No. Bob...

it is not a surveillance blimp.

Don?

Don't worry.

I'll call you right back.

I'm going to jail.

No. No.

No, I'm not. No, I'm not.

I am telling you

if they had any evidence,

they would have

arrested us already,

and they're

just fishing.

So I'm saying

we were careful, correct?

Everybody spent within

the cover stories, right?

Do investments count

as spending?

What investments?

You said be

a day trader.

No, we didn't.

Oh, boy!

We said pretend to be a day trader.

- Yeah.

Well, I was...

you know, getting

into character, right?

And I set up

this portfolio.

The Bob Fund.

Oh, good God!

- And, uh...

I am making 17%.

Did you ever invest amounts

greater than $10,000 at one time?

Oh, hell yeah!

- You did.

Like big mondo

chunks, man!

Yeah, totally!

I'm looking to make

the large green, hombre.

You think I like thinking

of my wife on her feet

from nine to five every day

ripping off the government?

This is bad, right?

Transactions

over $10,000

are automatically

reported to the IRS!

How many times

do I have to say that?

Well, I didn't--

I didn't know that.

Look, you cannot blame me

for things I didn't know.

That would not

be fair.

All right, look,

it doesn't prove

one thing.

They can't arrest us

without evidence.

What about the piles of

cash in our houses?

I mean, you don't think that

might be a little problem?

Uh, well--

We're gonna have to

get rid of it...tonight.

No. We'll take it

with us.

We'll run. We'll get

new identities.

Good.

- No. Shut up, will you?

What do you mean run?

To where?

What so we tell our kids?

Like they ever call us?

It's too late.

- They're already watching us.

There was blimp over our house.

- Bob!

Come on.

Bridget, please.

We worked so hard.

And that's it?

Whew!

We'll be all right.

We'll be all right.

She'll--she'll do it...

really.

Did you say 17%?

My God,

that's unbelievable.

What, are you mad, babe?

This is crazy.

Listen, Nina,

I know cops from work,

how they do things.

What happens when they

don't have enough evidence

is they try and get one of us

to roll over against the other,

testify.

The thing is

they only need one.

Whoever rolls over first

gets the deal.

First-time offender,

single mom,

they might deal you down to

probation if you roll now, alone.

I can't--

I can't do that.

We're all grownups here.

We did what we did.

The boys...

you should know

how it works.

We could do it, you know.

Get away.

I don't want to.

No?

I mean, I'm sorry,

but I--

I can't live with it just hanging

over us the rest of our life.

I'm not sorry

we did it,

but I really...

I'd really like this

part to be over.

Hang on.

Yeah, we are in

a police state.

No, we're not

in a police state.

Yeah, we are.

It's like 1989.

What?

No!

Oh, no!

God, what an idiot.

Honey, I need more.

Mom?

Okay.

Shh. Quiet.

Shh. Rufus.

Good Rufus.

Okay. They're

on the move.

Wow.

Beautiful, doll.

Uh-oh.

This is the police.

Stop your vehicle.

...stop your vehicle.

Exit with your hands

above your head.

Now we're under

surveillance.

Freeze!

KCPD!

Keep your hands

where we can see 'em!

Freeze!

KCPD! Drop it!

Drop it!

Hold it!

Don't you move!

Mom, what's going on?

Stay in the house, boys.

Mom?

We're going in.

You stay put.

Wow.

Nice house.

Kansas City Police!

Up here.

Hi.

Um...

I don't suppose anyone's

seen my wife.

No?

Okay...

Miss...Capone.

King room,

no smoking.

You'll be putting this

on which card?

I'm paying in cash.

We still need a credit

card for incidentals.

There won't be

any incidents,

will there?

No, ma'am.

Room 412.

Right through there.

You need to

help yourself here.

Yeah, well, I want

to see a lawyer.

Donde my abogato.

Just tell us

how they did it.

Did you hear me?

Lawyer.

L-a-y...

w...e...r.

She left you, man.

Your wife

ditched you.

What are you gonna

do about that?

Wish her well?

Your children are at

the Child Welfare offices.

When you're indicted,

we'll put them into

the foster care system.

Now, the district

attorney can help you

if you help him.

Hi.

Hey.

How much?

How much what?

How much did you take?

I'm not sure

I know what you mean.

Why? How much

do you think I took?

We have no idea.

Really?

That's right.

You don't know?

- Nope.

Oh. Good.

You can't arrest me.

You're a bank examiner.

That's right.

- Right.

Well, you've done

your homework.

What do you want?

I guess I wanna know

what makes someone like you

decide to do

something like this?

Well, I have a theory.

- Mm-hmm.

Crime is contagious.

Oh, brother.

He is a piece of work.

Oh, yeah.

Look in the camera.

Greetings, Earthlings.

You know those two

amazing women-- amazing--

that they just arrested,

and--and their families

and my husband?

They never really

had a shot.

I mean, they kept trying,

and they did their best,

but what did they

really get out of it?

A gigantic

untraceable fortune.

Prove it.

Hello?

I've been told

you want a deal.

Yes.

It should have been

a little faster.

Who?

The girl.

Kind of a

hinky plea bargain.

She says the deal is

you get the walk.

Full immunity.

She tells us

everything

if you get to go home

to your kids.

Go figure people.

What do you want?

Bridget, I didn't--

I need a lawyer.

I don't do

criminal work, Bridget.

You take that out of

this house this minute.

You know, not everybody

is like you.

Some of us have morals

and standards--

Shut up, Mindy!

I'm a tax attorney.

I know that.

Excuse me.

What's going on here?

Was she represented?

Deal's done.

I am this woman's

attorney.

You're what?

The deal wasn't with her.

It was with one of

the other suspects.

I represent them all.

And I need to confer

with my clients...now.

Wait right here.

You have no case

against my clients.

We have a confession.

She'll recant.

They all will.

What about the money,

the cars, the houses?

There's no law against

having money.

Can you prove they stole it?

Of course

they stole it.

Did they?

These women robbed

your bank for three years

without setting off
