Public Enemies Page #5

"Take off the white gloves!"

Do we understand each

other, Agent Purvis?

These are fine young men

here. What's your name, son?

Harris.

G- men all over the country

have picked up the gauntlet

flung down by the outlaws

and the wanton murderers.

And these junior

crime fighters here,

these Junior G-men, has,

every one of them,

stopped some crime

from occurring

and forestalled an entry into

the black book of criminal deeds.

Today, I am rewarding them

with these medals.

My friend Harris here is

the first. Well done, son.

You can size up a score like

nobody's business, Tommy.

You're a good egg.

But I don't like

Baby Face Nelson.

You got Nelson all wrong, John.

He thinks the world of you.

Hell, the whole country

thinks you're a goddamn hero.

Where's the bank?

Sioux Falls.

Nelson says there's

$800,000 in there.

Says he's got us a sweet

little place to hole up

till after the heat blows over.

What's he here for?

John, we gotta all be friends, all

right, or this ain't gonna work.

Red told you, after the bank,

we bust out Pierpont and Makley.

It'll take a lot

of careful planning.

Yeah. So?

...and Public Enemy Number 1,

John Dillinger.

They may be sitting amongst you.

They may be in your row.

Turn to your right.

And turn to your left.

If you see them, call the Bureau of

Investigation or your local police.

After the bank,

we'll figure out if we

can bust them out. Okay?

Okay.

"You don't work with

people you don't know

"and you don't work

when you're desperate."

Walter Dietrich.

Remember that?

Walter forgot.

When you're desperate,

that's when you got no choice.

I got one!

What are you doing? Get your

hands up! Get your hands up!

Come on, sugar,

let's go. Come on.

Where's all the damn money

we came here for?

Come on.

Open the door. What

are you looking at, huh?

What are you looking at?

Tommy.

John, let's go!

Let's go!

Get in the goddamn car!

Let's go!

Let's go! Let's go!

How'd you find

this place?

Don't worry. Nobody

will find us. Come on.

How much?

$46, 120.

That'd be less than

$800,000. Am I right?

Am I right?

It's $8,000 a man.

Leave me my share and get out.

We gotta cut loose from Nelson.

You gotta rest up a while.

No.

No. If we don't get out of

here first thing in the morning,

we're gonna wind up dead.

Only you're gonna make it.

God damn it, don't talk like that, Red.

No, Johnny. I got a

feeling that my time is up.

And when your time is up,

your time's up.

Red,

look here.

Tomorrow morning, Homer,

you and me will go to Reno,

and everything will be fine.

Give me a shot.

I'll give you the shot if you

tell me where the gang's holed up.

I don't know anything.

Where's Baby Face Nelson?

I don't know!

Where's Dillinger?

I wanna know where

they are. I don't know!

Tell me! Where are they?

The bullet entered

the back of his head.

It's resting over his right eye.

Do not interfere.

Do not interfere. His brain is

swelling! He will be dead soon!

He's suffering and I

need to sedate him!

Not yet.

If you interfere,

I will arrest you.

I don't know! Please, give

me a shot! Oh, mother, please!

Tell me where he is!

I don't know!

All right.

Where?

Tell me!

Little Bohemia.

Manitowish, Wisconsin.

F*** you!

Give me a shot.

Little Bohemia is in

Manitowish, Wisconsin.

Sam, you drive up.

Madala and Clegg, you cut through

the woods. Stay in the trees.

Come up on it

from the south,

close enough to see if

they're in the barroom there.

Rice, Rorer,

come up on it from the

north. The kitchen is there.

You see if they're in what is probably

the dining room. You stay in the trees.

And if he sees them in there? We go in.

And if he doesn't?

We go in anyway.

There's too much

real estate out here.

Too many ways for him

to get out,

too few of us to block him in.

We need to blockade

the roads behind us.

We need to wait for Cowley's

group to surround him.

Mr. Purvis, this is

not the way to do it.

I will not risk their

escaping the Bureau again.

You and Hurt take the northeast

corner where the road turns.

Cover that and the front.

Campbell, Baum, you're with me.

Thanks, but we gotta go.

No, come on, stick

around. Let's have a party.

We gotta work tomorrow.

Aw, work's for mugs.

Get out of here!

You wanna see

my James Cagney?

You wanna see my James

Cagney act? Huh? Huh?

What do you see? What do

you say? What do you know?

What's your name, doll?

This your wife, you dumb egg?

Go ahead.

Stop that car!

Bureau of Investigation!

Stop that car!

Fire!

Don't shoot!

Get on the floor!

Johnny!

Go!

Someone got out!

Is it Dillinger?

I think so!

Baum, you drive around

the woods. You flank him!

Go.

Go!

Come on, Red, come on. Come

on. We're getting out of here.

Hey, give me the keys

to that car.

Have you...

All you bastards wear vests,

so I'm gonna give it to you high

and I'm gonna give it to you low.

Carter?

Who was it? Dillinger?

Nelson.

Sir, there's somebody

on the road.

Cowley! Did you see a car?

A Ford, yeah,

it's going the other way.

Turn it around! Madala,

get in. It's Nelson!

Get in, you dumb bastards!

Get in!

Get in. Come on.

Let's go. Come on.

Where'd you get the car?

I killed a Fed by the road.

Faster, Sam!

They're behind us.

Let them have it, Homer!

Steady the car, God damn it!

Sh*t!

Homer! Homer!

Come on!

Have you never seen

a man die before?

Hush up.

You gotta let go, John.

Bullshit.

And you gotta

let Billie go, too.

I know you.

You've never let nobody down.

But this time,

you gotta go on.

You gotta let go.

Right now,

all of Dillinger's

friends are dead.

He is out there.

He is alone.

And there will not be a

better chance to run him down.

Yeah, but he could

be anywhere.

He could be anywhere.

But he is not anywhere, because

what he wants is right here.

I don't believe

in the government,

and I don't believe in the

government spending all its money,

and hence I don't

take any part of it.

And you say no, you...

I ought to refuse to accept the

money. It's government money.

I don't believe in

the government spending.

I'm not gonna take it.

What's she doing?

Still listening to the radio.

Sir, we have questioned

a source, John Probasco.

We have information that leads

us to believe that they're...

But Dillinger did aid

law enforcement in one way.

He's cited as the reason Congress is

considering the first national crime bill,

making criminal enterprise across

state lines a federal offense.

Meanwhile, in Fargo,

North Dakota...

We're building

coast-to-coast.

We want it nice and quiet,

and they bring this on us?

Frank, calm down. They rob banks. Right.

In one state, then another

state, that's called interstate.

We're coast to coast.

Wake up!

Now they can use these laws on us.

What time is it?

It's 4:
00 a. m., Sunday morning.

What's wrong?

I don't want to sleep.

Why?

Because I want

all the time we got.

What if

we could get out

of here altogether?
