I wouldn't say all.

Honey, we gotta get you dressed

for the party.

We'll be late.

My sister is expecting me to pick her up.

Tommy'll meet your sister

and bring the stuff to the Vanderbilt.

Won't you, Tommy?

Yeah, sure thing.

Sure thing.

Well, then, can I get my suitcase

so I can get ready?

Wear something nice.

Something pretty.

Once we're done, I'm off.

Could you have my suitcase put in the car.

Once we're done you can do

whatever the hell you want.

You walk away with a couple of million.

I'll even drop you off

wherever you want to go.

That won't be necessary.

Jake.

He comes when I call him.

Imagine that.

Do me a favour and

take the lady's suitcase down

and put it in the trunk of the limo.

She doesn't care for our hospitality here.

That's a nice looking dress.

Why don't you tie my tie for me.

Sorry about Tommy.

He gets carried away.

He does what you tell him.

Well...

let's hope he finds your sister.

She looks like me. He can't miss her.

Now arriving at track 8

is the Pennsylvania railroad service

from Philadelphia.

I repeat.

Now arriving at track 18

is the Philadelphia train.

You're attention, please.

The Empire State Service from Alban y

scheduled to arrive at 8. 15 pm

is now subject to delay.

I repeat,

the Albany train is subject to delay.

Step on it, Felix.

Good evening, madam.

Hang on.

I'm not letting you out of my sight.

Felix, you know

what to do with the suitcase?

Good evening Mr. Cassidy.

Thank you.

How do you like this place for a change?

An ything like your castle?

Evening, gentlemen.

How are you?

Champagne, doll?

Fine.

Thank you.

Bill.

This is Bill Scannon with US steel.

Good evening, sir.

Ladies and gentlemen,

friends.

My name is Randolph Jamison.

And I want to welcome you

to our benefit for the orphaned children

of the war.

The eight forty pm

New York Central service to Boston

will shortly depart from track 19.

I repeat, track 19

for the New York Central service to Boston.

Wally.

It's so good to see you.

Hold up a second.

You nervous?

Couldn't be you're worried

about little sis, could it?

Manny.

Manny.

Come here.

Godammit.

Jesus You look like one of my boxers,

for Christ's sake.

Go fix it.

You want everybody to think I cracked you?

Down there in the little girls' room.

And make it snappy.

Go.

I need the keys, sir.

I'll only be a minute. Thanks, kid.

Mr Cassidy.

Hey Manny.

That a rented monkey suit?

I'm here and I'm ready.

- No more booze tonight, Manny.

- I know.

- Where's the...

- Be patient.

Go get yourself a ginger ale or something.

Hurry up.

Hey, what the hell's that for, man?

What's the big idea?

What the hell took you so long?

There was a line-up. You're hurting me.

Yeah, the clock just struck midnight,

Cinderella.

Let's go, Manny.

Hey! Get a f***ing move on!

This is not good.

Benn y's not going to like this.

Well, come in, Sergeant.

This must all seem very familiar to you.

Yeah, sounds like one hell of a party.

Maybe I ought to stay a while.

You'll miss your plane, Roy.

- Manny you remember Roy?

- Yeah, sure.

Hey, Manny.

Why do we always have to do this

in the dark?

It's gonna wreck my eyesight.

And I believe you know Lieutenant Nash?

Hello, Roy.

I see great minds think alike.

Now, what the hell are you doing here?

I might ask you the same question.

Easy, let's not have a scene.

You got my jack?

First things first, Roy.

Could you hold that please, Mr Cassidy?

The light stinks.

Closer, please.

Thank you.

Come on, Manny. You're shaking.

Round cut.

Flawless.

180, maybe 190 carats.

Some of the best I've ever seen.

As good as the first batch.

All right, where's my dough?

I'm all through here, Mr. Cassidy.

Can I go?

Hang on a second, Manny.

You know, folks,

something doesn't add up here.

One of us is real smart.

One of us is real stupid.

One of us is a goddamn liar.

I brought the jewels,

I guess that makes me the smart one.

And I'm getting dry hustled by the lady

who said she had the jewels.

That makes me the stupid one.

Only thing left is the liar...

Well, the only liar I know is this redneck.

He split the stones from me and Jack

and then sold them in two batches is all.

But, I got more than this put together.

And if you don't take my word for it,

you'll see for yourself

when Maloney and Janey get here.

Maloney?

What the hell are you trying to pull?

He's picking up her sister at Grand Central.

Jesus Christ,

you don't you get an ything, do you?

She's gonna lead 'em right here to us.

What?

Don't listen to him.

She set us up, all of us.

The only reason she told you

she had the jewels

was so she could find out

where the swap was.

When Maloney gets here

you see how fast the cops turn up.

I told you he's a psycho, Ben.

Didn't I say that?

Princess,

I got dogs don't stink as much as you.

- Bastard!

- Come on, come on.

Hey, hey.

- Hold on.

- What do you want me to do Mr Cassidy?

He don't want you to do nothing.

Me, I got a plane to catch.

What? You wanna shoot me down here.

You go ahead.

That's going to make one hell of a bang.

I tell you what, I shoot back.

It's gonna sound like World War III.

Excuse me.

Nice doing business with both of you.

You picked the wrong man

to mess with lady.

F***!

Sit down!

Sit down a second.

Relax a minute.

Open up that case,

I want to look at my jewels.

Can I have a drink?

Women, huh?

Didn't I tell you not to forget about me?

First you and then the b*tch.

- Felix, Car.

- Yes Mr. Cassidy.

Mr Cassidy?

Who are you?

Criminal Investigation Division, US Army.

You're under arrest, Mr Cassidy.

What the hell for?

Where are they?

I haven't the least notion

what you're talking about.

Hang onto him.

All right, up against the car and spread 'em.

Relax.

- Relax.

- You too, bud.

Jesus, you're going to pat me down now?

- Don't grab my ass.

- Punk.

Yeah, good job. You're doing a good job.

Yeah, talk to the chief of police.

I know him.

Bunch of boy scouts, all of you.

- Oh, you think so, do you?

- Yeah.

- Do you know this gentleman?

- No.

We were going to our car

and you stopped us.

That's him!

That's Tarlton, right there.

Tarlton, hold it!

Get your hands off me, I'm not moving.

Tarlton!

Over there. He's going that way!

Well, I guess this is where you came in.

Squeaky clean, remember, Mike?

Well, it sure felt crazy.

What a song and dance.

What the hell took so long?

I was trying to figure out

which car was yours.

And I had to get out of the damn parking lot.

What the hell happened?

Are you alright?

I forgot about Tarlton.

I was on Omaha beach too,

you son of a b*tch.

How come you showed up as Tarlton?

I about died.

I had to do something.

Savern found me,

courtesy of the US Army

and I had to turn State's evidence.

You're kidding.

I can get him myself, Jack. I got you.

Suppose I get you someone bigger.

Who's bigger?

Owner of The Garden.

What the hell has he got to do with this?

He's the one who bought the jewels.
