This is a.44 Magnum,
the most powerful handgun in the world.
And it could blow your head clean off.
Do you feel lucky?
Mr. Ricca!
How do you feel about your acquittal?
I had nothing to do with Scarza's murder.
Who could have killed
Anthony Scarza and his family?
That's a stupid question. Get off my back!
Mr. Weinstein, explain the technicality
involving the lack of admissible evidence.
That's a legality
that can't be explained at this time.
Mr. Weinstein, you don't seem surprised
about the decision.
I don't know why they waste
the taxpayers' money.
This whole thing is an arbitrary attack
on a legitimate businessman.
-Do you have any comments?
-What, dear?
Do you have any other comments?
I'll give you a comment:
Their minds are dead.
-What do you mean by that?
-Their minds are dead.
Mr. Ricca means he is very pleased
with the decision.
There's a big crowd.
Do you fear for your life?
No, of course not.
Mr. Estabrook.
As the prosecutor,
how do you feel about the court's decision?
It's happened before,
I have no more comments.
I'm sorry, no comments. No comments!
I have no comments.
You know what I think?
I'll tell you what I think!
F*** the courts, that's what I think!
They've already wasted too much time
worrying about the rights of killers!
Ricca, you're a killer!
Get in the car! Go on!
Murderer!
Carmine Ricca...
... was acquitted on a technicality:
the lack of admissible evidence.
Ricca had been charged with complicity...
...in the murders of labor reformer
Anthony Scarza and his family.
When he appeared outside
the courthouse this afternoon, a free man...
...it touched off a wild,
mob-like demonstration.
But the police were finally able
...and there ha ve been
no reports of injuries.
But one can expect an uproar
from an angry and alarmed crowd...
... which fully expected Ricca
to be convicted.
And I'm sure we ha ven 't heard
the last of the Ricca case.
Art Brown reporting from city hall.
Cop.
Gino, for Christ's sake.
Come on, Carmine.
I'm driving this thing like a baby carriage.
Could I see your driver's license, please?
Do you know who that is
sitting back there?
I'll still have to see
your driver's license, please.
I'll have to find it.
Do you know why you're being stopped?
Yes, we know, Officer,
and you're making a big mistake.
-You crossed a double line back there.
-A double line?
Take it easy.
Whatever you say, Officer.
I just happened to find it, sir.
That's right, Simple Simon.
Check, see if it's stolen.
I want this bastard busted out of his job.
We'll take care of this guy.
You fellas, just take it easy.
-This car registered to you?
-To him.
-I'll have to see the registration.
-Come on, give me that license.
That's okay.
Hi, Harry. Is this your case?
Walter?
Hello, Harry. What are you doing here?
This couldn't have happened
to a nicer bunch.
Ricca, Weinstein, his attorney.
James Cantina, the driver.
What about the bodyguard?
We're checking that out now, lieutenant.
Iooks like somebody saved
the taxpayers a lot of money, doesn't it?
Callahan, what're you doing here?
You're on loan to stakeout.
We had nothing hot on,
besides, we were close.
Callahan, you get your lying ass in gear
and get back to that stake-out squad.
Anything else, you call it in.
-Who do you think did this, Briggs?
-You're on loan to stakeout, Callahan.
That's right, lieutenant, you saw to that.
I've got nothing personal
against you, Callahan.
But we can't have the public crying,
"police brutality"...
...every time you're on the street.
You just might need me on a job like this.
Whoever did this was very good at it.
You'd sure be the one to know, Harry.
-Well, I just work for this city, Briggs.
-So do l.
Ionger than you.
And I never had to take my gun out
of its holster, once. I'm proud of that.
Well, you're a good man, lieutenant.
A good man always knows his limitations.
-lt. Briggs?
-Yeah?
What did you get?
Well, it looks like
they were killed with a Magnum.
The boys now are checking
the blood types and for fingerprints.
What do you have?
Driver's license. Doesn't look at all
like the usual gangster crap, does it?
Briggs has his nose up his ass today.
I guess he thinks
that's where his promotion is.
See you later, Harry.
What's with you and Briggs anyway?
Jealousy.
He knows this is the kind of case
I should be on. It's just a matter of time.
Hey, Early, want to get in on this?
What the hell is that about?
They're giving odds on how long
you'll stay alive being my partner.
Are you kidding?
Nope.
How long did your last partner go?
A couple of weeks.
Don't worry, he's still alive,
teaching college.
You have another trade, Smith?
No, no. Do you?
No, but Bill Mackenzie does.
Who in the hell is Bill Mackenzie?
He's an ex-homicide man,
has a snack shop out at the airport.
Greatest burgers in town. Hungry?
-How can you be hungry after seeing that?
-Seeing what?
There must be hope for the world yet.
How about you? Do you want something?
-We got chili and garlic bread today.
-No, thank you. I don't feel very hungry.
In broad daylight at close range?
Must've looked like ripe melons.
Operations Supervisor, Mr. Phoenix,
Now all keep calm.
I'll never forget the Floyd case.
Got it with an axe during the rush hour.
Operations Supervisor, Mr. Phoenix,
Must be trouble.
That's the airport code name for trouble.
We've got 90 people being terrorized
by those maniacs...
...in boarding area B right now.
What's taking so long?
They said they'd be there in 15 minutes?
Where's that overseas pilot?
I don't understand.
How did they get through security?
-I don't know.
-Any problems here?
What are you doing here?
-I'm sorry, you'll have to leave.
-I'm a police officer.
We've got two frantic hijackers
on our New York flight.
-Have you called the FBl?
-They're on their way here right now.
But the hijackers want an overseas pilot
before they take off.
May I make a suggestion?
Good afternoon.
You took your goddamn time about it.
Now, close that door!
All right, what's in there?
Overseas charts and flight plans.
Set it down!
All right, turn around.
Stay there.
All right, turn around here.
Here! Now get in there!
-It's all yours now.
Where to?
You get us up,
I'll tell you where to when we're up.
You want to put us in take-off position?
Starting three.
Move it!
All right, I'll take it.
That's right, lieutenant. We were lucky
to have one of your men here.
He's on board now, an lnspector Callahan.
Callahan!
Excuse me, Captain.
I know this may sound silly...
...but can you fly?
No. Never had a lesson.
Sit down!
What are you doing here, lieutenant?
