Check the replay.

Slow-mo.

I told you that motherf***er

was scandalous.

Now we get

to break him off some.

He wouldn't have did it if he

didn't have somebody in Houston

to help him get that package.

I wanna know who it is.

Wickey, set it up for Saturday.

I wanna do it someplace way out,

where nobody is, off the track.

I got just the ticket, K.J.

[Grunting]

- Stay back.

- Sh*t!

Here! I stole

from Jesus Christ. I hid it!

Fifth floor, my apartment.

I never told. Here, take it.

Take it!

Save my soul!

Take it easy, we'll get ya out.

Come on!

Oh, forgive me, Jesus!

- We're tryin' to save your life!

- [Screaming]

God! Agh!

[Fire Truck Horn Blowing]

Hey, Don, remember what

that old guy said about

burnin' in hell and all?

This envelope here.

I've been goin' through it,

fillin' out the report.

I think I figured out what

he meant. It's pretty wild.

"Orgill Brothers and Company.

Eugene Delong Employee I.D. Card."

Eugene Delong was

the old man. Read this.

"St. Louis Herald,

February rd, .

"Catholic Church

Looted And Vandalized.

"Thieves broke into

St. Anthony's Church

last night...

"and made off with a fortune

in religious articles.

Objects, most of which

were pure gold, were on

special exhibit from Europe."

It's gold, solid gold.

SweetJesus.

I think it was old Eugene

that robbed this church.

Shoot, I'd say there

ain't no question about it.

Wejust solved a crime,

a -year-old crime.

Wow, that's pretty wild.

Hey, Vince.

I think our ship

just come in.

This, my friend,

is a treasure map.

[Country]

[Don]

All I'm saying is, come Saturday

why not drive to East St. Louis,

find this factory

and take a look around?

I got a metal detector at home.

This buddy and I used to go

prospectin' with it.

We bring some tools.

We check out the floor.

If there ain't nothin' there,

it ain't no loss.

If there is, like I said,

why not?

Because it's crazy, Don.

We can't walk in a factory

and rip up their floor.

I already called information.

There ain't no listin'

for Orgill Brothers Company.

They're outta business.

Don, the deal is

the guy robbed a church.

Even if the stuff

was still there, we couldn't

just take it for ourselves.

Why not?

Statute of limitations

on burglary is what,

ten, fifteen years max.

Well, I mean, they

probably already collected

on the insurance anyhow.

You bet your ass

they did.

It's a million dollars

in gold, Vince.

It could be just layin' there

waitin' for us. This could be

the greatest thing we ever did.

Dd

I'm pretty sure we head south

once we get over the bridge.

That's East St. Louis

over there on the left.

Orgill Brothers should be

about a mile south of town.

South it is, pard'.

Hey, you tell your girl

where we're goin' today?

You kidding?

I don't want her to think

I'm completely nuts.

I told her we were goin'

on a department field exercise.

Oh, so it's serious

between you two, huh?

Weddin' bells?

Yeah, maybe.

We've been gettin' along

pretty good lately.

She's been real nice.

I hope you have

better luck than I did.

What happened with you two?

Just couldn't get along?

Yeah, I guess

that about explains it.

What the hell ya gonna do?

At least we didn't have kids.

Hey, remember what I said

about keepin' quiet...

if we score so

the I.R.S. Don't find out?

That goes double for Becky.

I don't want her gettin' her hands

on my share, not one thin dime.

[Don]

Don't look like nobody

lives there, does it?

I guess that figures.

We're about a mile

off the highway...

and close to two miles

outside of town.

That means if we find it,

we don't have to cut anybody in.

Let's see.

Old Eugene's map has got it

between these two others.

I'd make it that building

there with the fire escape.

Fifth floor, right?

Yeah.

That'd be where

those arch windows are.

Ain't gonna leave it

parked out here though.

Somebody comes along,

the vandal's gonna have

a field day with this thing.

Let's pull around back.

See if we can park

out of sight.

We'll have to cut through

the basement of that

buildin' back there.

But at least

the truck'll be safe.

Goddamn. You always

drive around packin'?

Like the man says,

"Don't leave home without it."

Especially when you

go to East St. Louis.

I figure Eugene's tenement's

just the other side

of that buildin' behind us.

All we gotta do is

find the fifth floor.

Vince, old buddy,

let's get rich.

Let's cut on

Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis

Michael Robert Gale (born May 25, 1951) is an American screenwriter, producer and film director. He famously co-wrote the science fiction comedy film Back to the Future with writing partner Robert Zemeckis, and the screenplays for the film's two sequels. Gale also co-produced all three films, and served as associate producer on the subsequent animated TV series. Michael J. Fox noted that Back to the Future co-creator Bob Gale is "the gatekeeper" to the franchiseRobert Lee Zemeckis (/zəˈmɛkɪs/; born May 14, 1952)[1] is an American director, film producer and screenwriter frequently credited as an innovator in visual effects. He first came to public attention in the 1980s as the director of Romancing the Stone (1984) and the science-fiction comedy Back to the Future film trilogy, as well as the live-action/animated comedy Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988). In the 1990s he directed Death Becomes Her and then diversified into more dramatic fare, including 1994's Forrest Gump,[2] for which he won an Academy Award for Best Director; the film itself won Best Picture. The films he has directed have ranged across a wide variety of genres, for both adults and families.Zemeckis' films are characterized by an interest in state-of-the-art special effects, including the early use of the insertion of computer graphics into live-action footage in Back to the Future Part II (1989) and Forrest Gump, and the pioneering performance capture techniques seen in The Polar Express (2004), Monster House (2006), Beowulf (2007), A Christmas Carol (2009) and Welcome to Marwen (2018). Though Zemeckis has often been pigeonholed as a director interested only in special effects,[3] his work has been defended by several critics including David Thomson, who wrote that "No other contemporary director has used special effects to more dramatic and narrative purpose."[4] more…
