00:14:41and Ricky was sucking it right in. It's like little kids, like they wanted to be big shots, right? Yeah, that was my brother, wanted to be a big shot, never grew up.
00:14:55Yeah, I wonder if that was really them or that's you. Mr. Fuller, that's really them and my God, they had this whole, you know, thing about it, they go to bars all the...
00:15:08They go to bars three or four times a week to have meetings, they want me to come along with them. I never did. Oh, God, some meetings.
00:15:21And then he'd tell me these stories about the women he'd meet at these parties, you know. Ricky was a sucker for a beautiful woman and in the music business, you get to meet a lot of them apparently. He loved the whole deal, he loved the atmosphere, he loved the smoke, he loved the schmoozing and he loved those beautiful women, let's face it.
00:15:40Maybe I envy him, I don't know. That's not my style, but I keep hearing stories all the time. Lenny the Hustler, oh, you got to hear about this Lenny the Hustler. Man, I'm totally jazzed about our future, man. Yeah, what do you mean?
00:15:57Ricky, I have been busting my ass, delivering newspapers, washing cars, babysitting, stereo hookups, computer odd jobs, every scam and con I could think of. That's me.
00:16:22But all I ever really wanted to do was to make my first million, retire on the interest by the time I'm 35, spend the rest of my life sitting on a beach chair in the Bahamas, looking out at the ocean and checking my stock quotes. That's my idea of heaven on earth.
00:16:52Can you keep a secret? He asks him. Lenny had a secret. You know what Lenny's secret was? Lenny's secret was he wanted Ricky's money to buy the recording studio. So that's what you think? That's what I know.
00:17:10I got everybody but the last year. I need one more guy with 50 grand, and I want that guy to be you, Ricky. If we buy Jackie out, within five years, the thing will be bought, paid for, and ours. With my ideas and your talent, it'd be a perpetual money machine.
00:17:35It sounds too good to be true. Ricky, the only way that I can make my millions is for us to take him out. Take him out? He meant buy him out. With your money, with your $50,000? I've always been there for him. That's our family history. That's a hell of a family history.
00:17:54So you gonna go to your brother? Partner? Yeah, I'll go to Mel. What about Shaughnessy? If he can afford it, he can come along for the ride. Alright, I think we can do this. Great. I gotta go. Don't forget to call Mel.
00:18:12So I gave Ricky a share, and they bought the studio. You never saw such happy people.
00:18:42Ricky Lenny Shaughnessy. The gruesome threesome. Nothing could stop these guys. They had their deal, and they were working it. Things were great in the beginning. Ricky even bought a house in Malibu.
00:19:01I used to like to go out and watch him do business overlooking the Pacific. It just made me feel so good. He just seemed to be so calm and so centered. He wasn't usually like that, my brother. He was on top of the world.
00:19:22Okay, I think I got enough for one day. Okay. So, I'll call again if you think of anything. Here's my card. You give me a call? Will do. Take this? Please.
00:19:42Thank you, Mel. I'll see you out.

00:25:12So, who the hell is Cal Roman?
00:25:16No, Cal Roman.
00:25:22Oh I'm sorry, he's Ricky's banker.
00:25:25Yeah and he's a CC'd on every copy of correspondence concerning this policy.
00:25:33You know him?
00:25:35Yeah.
00:25:37And?
00:25:41He's a loan shark, Mr. Fuller.
00:25:44He suckered Ricky in and played him like a fish.
00:25:47Really?
00:25:49Well, why don't you tell me about him?
00:25:55Ricky once borrowed money from this guy,
00:25:57Cal, for some equipment.
00:25:58Then out of the blue, this guy calls him one day and says,
00:26:01Ricky, how are you?
00:26:02How are you?
00:26:03Long time no speak.
00:26:04Oh, fine, Cal.
00:26:05How are you?
00:26:06Good, really good.
00:26:07Just taking it easy.
00:26:08Mickey and I just got back from Europe.
00:26:10We took a tour of the French Riviera.
00:26:12Oh, yeah?
00:26:13Who's Mickey?
00:26:14Very special friend of mine.
00:26:16Real smart cookie.
00:26:18So we stayed at this dynamite resort in Cannes.
00:26:23And they treated us like we were some kind of American royalty.
00:26:26The way Mickey had them waiting on us hand and foot.
00:26:29I don't know how she does it.
00:26:30Me, I'm just a simple merchant banker
00:26:33from Venice, California.
00:26:34Heh.
00:26:37Thanks, Mickey.
00:26:38You're about out of this long.
00:26:41If you want to make another lease deal, you're pre-approved.
00:26:45Thanks, Cal.
00:26:46Why don't we have lunch sometime?
00:26:47My treat.
00:26:48Be nice to attach a face to the name.
00:26:51Cal, I would love that.
00:26:52Thanks.
00:26:53Thanks.
00:26:55I get the point.
00:26:57Do you?
00:26:58Yeah.
00:26:58You're really very thorough, right down to the last detail.
00:27:02I think Cal Roman killed my brother, Mr. Fuller.
00:27:04What?
00:27:09Honey.
00:27:11Honey, this is Mr. Fuller.
00:27:13He's with the insurance company.
00:27:15Mr. Fuller, this is?
00:27:18Madeline.
00:27:18Madeline.
00:27:19Pleased to meet you.
00:27:20Don't spend it all in one place.
00:27:22Have a nice time shopping.
00:27:24Bye.
00:27:29OK, now, go on.
00:27:31Cal Roman gets the insurance money.
00:27:33All of it?
00:27:34Yeah.
00:27:35But you won't find it in your files.
00:27:37Because Cal paid for the policy.
00:27:38I was supposed to collect and then give the money to him.
00:27:40That's the only way we could save the studio, he said.
00:27:44Sure, but that doesn't prove that Cal
00:27:45Roman killed your brother.
00:27:48I see.
00:27:51I mean, if every beneficiary of a key man insurance policy
00:27:53was a murder suspect, the police would be very, very busy.
00:27:58Do you have any proof?
00:28:00No.
00:28:01I don't have any proof.
00:28:03I got a big mouth.
00:28:06I got a big mouth.
00:28:06That's what I get.
00:28:07And it sometimes gets me into trouble.
00:28:13I forget how to breathe whenever you are near.
00:28:20The ability to take a breath of air.
00:28:25The ability to take a breath of air seems to disappear.
00:28:33Can't remember my own name.
00:28:36Seems I heard it just today.
00:28:40Let's see, is it Jeffrey, James, or Joe?
00:28:43Doesn't matter anyway.
00:28:46And I would love to tell you how I feel,
00:28:51but I can't recall how to speak.
00:28:54When I get near you, I forget how to breathe.
00:29:12Something about this case just doesn't make any sense.
00:29:16I thought you said it was a no-brainer.
00:29:17No, that's what Bryson says.
00:29:20So?
00:29:21So it's a key man life insurance policy
00:29:24where you put up $2 million on two guys.
00:29:27For anybody to make any money, both of these two guys
00:29:29have to die.
00:29:32You understand?
00:29:33Yeah, two guys.
00:29:35They both have to die, $2 million.
00:29:37Right, and then voila, suddenly both of these guys
00:29:40are killed in a car crash.
00:29:41Doesn't that seem a little suspect to you?
00:29:44Odd, yes.
00:29:45So why aren't the cops in on it?
00:29:46Well, that's what I'm saying.
00:29:47And the guy who puts up the money just
00:29:49happens to be a shyster loan shark.
00:29:51The two guys he insures are, you know, a couple of wannabes.
00:29:54And the guy telling me this story is a whack-out brother.
00:29:58Bryson doesn't want to investigate.
00:29:59I mean, this thing right off the top of anybody's head
00:30:02looks like a double homicide.
00:30:03What, am I crazy?
00:30:04Sure is a beautiful day.
00:30:07Nice time to relax.
00:30:09I'm relaxed.
00:30:12I'm relaxed.
00:30:13Good, then you can take me out to dinner and a movie.
00:30:18Well, I would, except for the fact
00:30:19that you have to go to work tonight.
00:30:22I'm back to work in days.
00:30:23You're back to days?
00:30:25Mm-hmm.
00:30:27Well, that's good, because that was always a little creepy,
00:30:29you working in the morgue at night.
00:30:31What, you don't think it's creepy
00:30:33me working in the morgue all day?
00:30:36No, I'm just saying, you're such a great looking gal.
00:30:38I mean, you working on dead guys in a morgue at night
00:30:41is kind of a waste.
00:30:42So do you think I should look more like Jack Klugman?
00:30:45I think it'd be less of a waste.
00:30:49At least for me.
00:30:50Race me.
00:30:51No, wait.
00:30:52No, no, no.
00:30:53Come on.
00:30:54Come on.
00:30:54Whenever you are near, the ability to take a breath of air
00:31:02seem to disappear.
00:31:03Uh, yeah.
00:31:04Hi, I'm John Fuller.
00:31:05I'm looking for a Cal Roman.
00:31:08California National Life Insurance.
00:31:10Sure.
00:31:11Hi, this is John Fuller.
00:31:14I'm with California National Life Insurance.
00:31:16I'd like to look for Cal Roman.
00:31:18I'll call you for Cal Roman, John Fuller.
00:31:21California National Life Insurance.
00:31:22Yeah.
00:31:23California National Life Insurance?
00:31:28Call back when?
00:31:29What?
00:31:30If he doesn't talk to me, then I can't pay him the $2 million
00:31:34that he supposedly owed.
00:31:35I can't.
00:31:37Oh, hi.
00:31:39Hello?
00:31:41Hello?
00:31:43I got a funny feeling about this guy.
00:31:45I'm just recommending that you stop payment until I can
00:31:47at least talk to this Cal Roman.
00:31:49You don't talk to Cal Roman, you understand?
00:31:51I just got off the phone with his lawyer.
00:31:53He said you're harassing his client.
00:31:54He wouldn't talk to me.
00:31:56He wouldn't come and meet with me.
00:31:57He said you tried to hold up payment.
00:31:59Yeah, I said that because I wanted him to meet with me.
00:32:01Look, Cal Roman represents a lot of business here.
00:32:04You finish that paperwork and be done with it.
00:32:05I don't need any more trouble.
00:32:07Mr. Bryson.
00:32:08Unless you have proof, let it go.
00:32:13Yes, sir.
00:32:19Roman wouldn't return any of my calls.
00:32:21Doesn't he have to?
00:32:22Why?
00:32:23I'm not a cop.
00:32:24I don't have subpoena power.
00:32:26Figures.
00:32:28So what can you do?
00:32:30I did some checking up on him.
00:32:32I agree with you, he is bad news.
00:32:35There's no policy on your life, is there?
00:32:38No, not that I know of.
00:32:41Good.
00:32:42Then you'll probably be safe.
00:32:44Probably.
00:32:46You know, what do you want me to do?
00:32:49You want me to check it out, I'm going to need your help.
00:33:02Two weeks after that phone call, Cal and Ricky had lunch.
00:33:06I'm guessing Cal figured Ricky liked fancy restaurants,
00:33:09so they went to Montanaro's.
00:33:11He had his mark pegged.
00:33:13Good to see you, Ricky.
00:33:15Thanks for joining me.
00:33:16My pleasure, Cal.
00:33:17My favorite restaurant.
00:33:19Big celebrity.
00:33:21Neither a bar nor a lend a bee.
00:33:24They say that prostitution is the oldest profession.
00:33:27It's the second oldest.
00:33:29Where do all those guys get the money to get laid?
00:33:31They borrowed it.
00:33:33Yeah.
00:33:38So you and your friends are in the music business, huh?
00:33:45I like that business.
00:33:47Who would have thought there'd be so much money in it?
00:33:51Back in the old days, like everybody else,
00:33:54I had dreams of being in the entertainment business too.
00:33:57Seemed very glamorous.
00:34:00And as you get older, you rise up.
00:34:02You make your money wherever you can.
00:34:05I like you, Ricky.
00:34:07I trust you.
00:34:08Thanks, Cal.
00:34:10Here's my special friend, Mickalene.
00:34:15Have a seat, Mickey.
00:34:16Cal says you're in the music business.
00:34:19Yes.
00:34:20Does that interest you?
00:34:21Cal says you're talented.
00:34:24That interests me.
00:34:26Well, you should come over to the studio sometime and see us.
00:34:30I just might do that.
00:34:32So you see, Cal was tempting Ricky with money
00:34:36and softening him up with his babe, Mickalene.
00:34:40I am late.
00:34:41I got to cover for somebody.
00:34:43I've got to get to work.
00:34:44Will you finish this some other time?
00:34:45Sure.
00:34:46Why don't you take an umbrella?
00:34:47Is this about you?
00:34:48I'm covered.
00:34:50Here, don't open it inside.
00:34:51It'll bring you bad luck.
00:34:54So how'd it go today?
00:34:57I just talked to this guy on my case.
00:35:03And no, I didn't have anything to drink.
00:35:05And I may have even lost a few ounces.
00:35:08Want to smell my breath?
00:35:09Uh-huh.
00:35:10Mm, not bad.
00:35:11You going to keep it up?
00:35:14I don't know.
00:35:15I mean, just that it's a rough time of year for me.
00:35:20That's right.
00:35:22It's been five years, huh?
00:35:24Yeah, you remember.
00:35:26Timmy needs a father.
00:35:29Yeah, go over there and she can shoot me or call the police.
00:35:34So I'll drive you out there.
00:35:36Then she'd shoot you.
00:35:38I'd take a bullet for you, baby.
00:35:42You may have to.
00:35:44Going down.
00:35:51I left my home when I was just a child.
00:35:56Found my peace on the sea.
00:36:00If it ain't funny, I would keep it all down inside.
00:36:05Let it out when we reach our destiny.
00:36:11I'm sinking slow.
00:36:15I'm sliding down to the bottom.
00:36:19And I ain't too proud to say that I'm laughing,
00:36:25laughing while the ship goes down.
00:36:42There he is.
00:36:45He's a doll, John.
00:36:47He's really grown.
00:36:50Looks good, doesn't he?
00:36:51Yeah, he looks great.
00:36:53Looks good.
00:36:58We better go.
00:36:59I don't want her to see me.
00:36:59Why?
00:37:01Yeah, come on.
00:37:02If her eyes, I'm still a lousy drunk,
00:37:04she'd probably have me arrested.
00:37:05Oh, please.
00:37:07That's just in your head, John.
00:37:08You don't know that.
00:37:11Come on.
00:37:27Now, I'm just not ready yet.

00:38:31Well, yeah, it's important, you know.
00:38:36All right. Great.
00:38:39I'll call later. Thanks.

00:45:58♪
00:46:03♪
00:46:08♪
00:46:10Cal joined in, all very nice, all very sociable.
00:46:14But you know, Mr. Fuller,
00:46:16he would have a habit of showing them what a tough guy he was.
00:46:19Ricky said that he carried a gun?
00:46:21I saw it on him. He came into my store for medicine.
00:46:24Ricky said I should fix him up, you know?
00:46:26You filled his prescriptions?
00:46:28Yes. Nitroglycerin for angina.
00:46:30Anything else?
00:46:32Cal always carries a cell phone.
00:46:34I mean, I heard conversations with Ricky on the cell phone.
00:46:36He comes into my store and uses the payphone.
00:46:39So you could hear?
00:46:41Like he wanted me to hear.
00:46:43I hear Cal talking on the payphone about this meeting
00:46:45he's gonna have with his partners.
00:46:47He went to get the okay on the money for the guys.
00:46:49He was bragging about his timing.
00:46:51He said the whole deal was done over a chess game.
00:46:56They're in for 100 Gs.
00:46:58Could go as high as another half a mil.
00:47:00Maybe more.
00:47:04Black queen takes the white knight.
00:47:06That's your endgame.
00:47:08Do they know what they're doing?
00:47:11Does it make any difference?
00:47:13Not to us.
00:47:16All right, Cal, give it to him.
00:47:18After that, checkmate.
00:47:20Checkmate. That's what he said.
00:47:22Checkmate.
00:47:26And the thing was, I told Ricky about the phone call,
00:47:29and he says it doesn't matter as long as he gets the money.
00:47:32Then Lenny starts going crazy.
00:47:34Says he wants to buy another studio in New York.
00:47:37We can buy into the New York company
00:47:39in a heartbeat.
00:47:41They did $1.8 million in sales last year.
00:47:43Isn't that risky?
00:47:45No! Cal says it's fine.
00:47:47We borrow against good paper,
00:47:49and we use the rest of the money for expansion!
00:47:51But what if...
00:47:53There's nothing to worry about.
00:47:55Their books are solid, their clients are gold.
00:47:57We can't lose.
00:47:59You want a suite at the Plaza?
00:48:01Well, we'll buy Coastal out, baby!
00:48:03Cal loves it. You'll love it, too, trust me.
00:48:05I gotta go.
00:48:08The California gold rush for the next millennium.
00:48:11And look at our client list.
00:48:13Two of the three major TV studios.
00:48:16He was always into some sort of scam.
00:48:18He'd even try to con the phone company.
00:48:20My favorite, powdered sugar.
00:48:22Hey, what's with the change of mobile phone numbers again?
00:48:25I hate that.
00:48:27Somebody cloned my car phone again,
00:48:29ripped off the phone company for another five grand.
00:48:34I'll give you the new number.
00:48:36Fortunately, I still have friends at the phone company.
00:48:39Now, speaking of friends,
00:48:42somebody saw you on a date?
00:48:45Hmm?
00:48:47I'm gonna marry her.
00:48:49No kidding?
00:48:52Well, congratulations.
00:48:54Thanks.
00:48:58So, Sandy is going to move
00:49:01$400,000 worth of network sound work
00:49:05to us in the next two months.
00:49:11So, their studio's doing network business,
00:49:14Ricky's producing music,
00:49:16and Lenny's having a big wedding.
00:49:18They were on a ride.
00:49:25Hey, thanks for the gift, Cal.
00:49:27Mickey?
00:49:29Spend it in one place.
00:49:31I will. I will.
00:49:35We are buying the digital sound systems I saw in Las Vegas.
00:49:39State-of-the-art, man.
00:49:41How are we financing that?
00:49:43I just signed him on a 350-pound note.
00:49:45It's no biggie, as long as Cal's still willing to dance, which he is.
00:49:48We'll bill the rooms out at 400 an hour.
00:49:50We'll make it back in three and a half months.
00:49:52Just don't get us in too deep, okay?
00:49:55The big fish swim in the deep end.
00:50:00Their success was contagious. I mean, you know how it is.
00:50:03And even that receptionist, that cute blonde girl.
00:50:06What the heck's her name?
00:50:08Lola. Even Lola got seduced by it all.
00:50:24All that happened the day of the wedding.
00:50:27It was all a great party.
00:50:30When was the wedding?
00:50:33Last summer sometime. June, I think.
00:50:36Oh, jeez. I forgot all about this.
00:50:38Look at this. Right after the wedding.
00:50:40That's when the trouble started.
00:50:42What's the matter?
00:50:45New York is crapping out big time.
00:50:48Their sales are down one-third.
00:50:50Tim is off playing golf.
00:50:53You'd think he could at least take some clients with him.
00:50:56Donnie goes out on his boat and doesn't come in for two days!
00:51:01And Cal's not going away either.
00:51:03I mean, we're still into him for $750,000.
00:51:06Well, I assume we have receivables.
00:51:08Optimize who?
00:51:09Even with Cal's big, dipping into the profits.
00:51:12I mean, if we borrow the whole million, the interest will be $200,000.
00:51:16Wait a second. What whole million?
00:51:18How do you think I'm funding this?
00:51:20The equipment? New York?
00:51:23Cal and I have an understanding.
00:51:25I'm not gonna borrow the whole mill, but it's there if I need it.
00:51:31I told Ricky to pull out.
00:51:33Come on, Ricky. These guys would kill to get what they want.
00:51:35Would you?
00:51:36I mean, what do you think I am, some sort of gangster?
00:51:38That's exactly my point, Richard.
00:51:40You can go to a bank like normal people.
00:51:42You've got a solid business and equipment.
00:51:44Come on. I'll introduce you to my own bank.
00:51:46Huh?
00:51:48Ricky?
00:51:50Ricky!
00:51:53But Ricky didn't listen.
00:51:55Well, he sort of listened.
00:51:57But then he starts to get cut out of the business entirely.
00:52:00You never thought Ricky was any good with money anyway, right?
00:52:03No, but then he was kind of just pushed aside.
00:52:07Ricky started complaining that Lenny wouldn't even take his calls.
00:52:10That really hurt.
00:52:18You need the cell phone?
00:52:20Yeah, it's Ricky.
00:52:22Ricky? He can wait.
00:52:25Yeah, he can wait.
00:52:28I think Cal had already set in motion a plan to kill him anyway.
00:52:33Anna.
00:52:35This is Mel. Mel Anna.
00:52:37I'm working on Mel's case, or I was working on it.
00:52:39I'm packing up a few things. I'm on a break.
00:52:41I'll be out of here in a minute.
00:52:43What? Wait just a second. Stay here.
00:52:45Listen, if this is a bad...
00:52:47Anna. Anna!
00:52:49Don't Anna me!
00:52:51Anna! Anna!
00:52:53Don't Anna me. Don't anything me.
00:52:55You go back to your freaking beer bash and leave me out of this.
00:52:57There isn't any beer bash out here. Nobody's drinking any beer.
00:53:00What are you talking about?
00:53:02I don't want to know. I don't care. I do not care.
00:53:04Where the hell is my blow dryer?
00:53:06Stay in touch. I need you to believe me.
00:53:08I don't have to believe anything you say.
00:53:10I've been hanging around here for two years with you.
00:53:13What are you talking about? Believe me? I didn't say believe me.
00:53:15That Mel said believe me.
00:53:17Oh, so what is this now? Are you on the buddy system, John?
00:53:20Is that it? So what am I doing here?
00:53:22I don't want to be your nursemaid.
00:53:24I don't want to clean up after you.
00:53:26Oh, God. You know what? This is your life.
00:53:28Yeah, this is our life. What are you doing?
00:53:30Well, you know what? I don't think that means anything to you anymore.
00:53:33You totally lose it when you start drinking.
00:53:35Look, that bottle of beer that you saw me with,
00:53:37I was throwing that bottle away, all right?
00:53:39The place smells like a freaking bar.
00:53:42What, do I look stupid?
00:53:44No, you don't look stupid. You look beautiful.
00:53:46But look, look, I haven't had a drink for two days.
00:53:48I haven't had a drink for two days almost.
00:53:50Look at my hands. Look at my hands.
00:53:52Look at my hands!
00:53:55Hold them.
00:53:57Hold my hands.
00:54:00Okay?
00:54:02I'm not happy.
00:54:06Well, I'm sorry.
00:54:10Yeah?
00:54:12It's me, Mel.
00:54:18I'm sorry. I forgot my umbrella.
00:54:20Sure.
00:54:23Jeez, John.
00:54:25I'm in the middle of leaving you here.
00:54:27You stopped to give this guy an umbrella?
00:54:29Doesn't it register to you what's important?
00:54:31Doesn't he know you were fired from the case?
00:54:33That you were fired before because you couldn't nail the drunken driver?
00:54:36Drunk driver killed my daughter.
00:54:41All right? I was a cop. I went after him.
00:54:43It took, whatever, two years out of my life.
00:54:45I lost the family. I lost the...
00:54:49I don't want to yell.
00:54:52I do not want to yell about this.
00:54:55I lost everything.
00:54:59Until I found you.
00:55:02You stood by me.
00:55:05You're my friend.
00:55:09And I love you. I don't want to lose you.
00:55:12You don't. I love you.
00:55:14I love you.
00:55:16Besides, you love me. You can't stop talking about me.
00:55:19You just...
00:55:22You love me, too, right?
00:55:24Right.
00:55:28I love you.
00:55:30I'll...
00:55:32Yeah, I don't know.
00:55:34Well, you're gonna have to find something to prove that it's true.
00:55:36Otherwise, it's just hearsay.
00:55:38I don't need any proof. I just know it.
00:55:40Oh, you just know it.
00:55:43Well, if it's for me.
00:55:48You want proof?
00:55:51Take a look at this in Ricky's diary, huh?
00:55:53September 22nd.
00:55:55See Lenny about refinancing.
00:55:59Refinancing? That ought to do it.
00:56:01That should incriminate about 75% of the American population.
00:56:04Just wait a second, will you? Just listen.
00:56:06We take the million dollars you've run up in debt and refinance.
00:56:09Spread out the payments.
00:56:12And we're gonna have to give him a piece of the company.
00:56:15Okay.
00:56:17You think I'll go for it?
00:56:29Ricky Weiner and Lenny Minow.
00:56:32This is Saul Blackman, my attorney.
00:56:34Arthur Stricta, one of our investors.
00:56:36And, of course, you know Mickey.
00:56:39I'd like to present a plan
00:56:41that I think is gonna turn things around for the studio
00:56:44and clean up the debt.
00:56:46And we're prepared to offer you a piece of the company, too.
00:56:50Good. Now sit down and keep your mouth shut
00:56:52or I'll personally throw you out on your ass.
00:57:00Go ahead, Mickey.
00:57:02Thanks, Cal.
00:57:04Right now, the studio owes Cal a million.
00:57:07So we're going to form a new holding company
00:57:10with Cal in charge.
00:57:12Lenny's gonna sell this new company
00:57:14a 30% interest in the studio,
00:57:16a controlling 30%,
00:57:18in exchange for the outstanding debt.
00:57:20So...
00:57:22the holding company gets all the assets?
00:57:25Yes.
00:57:27But what about Lenny's limited partners?
00:57:29Well, let's put it this way.
00:57:31You're going from being limited partners
00:57:33to being very limited partners.
00:57:36Especially you, Ricky.
00:57:38Meanwhile, you get to keep your paycheck
00:57:40and you can still run the show.
00:57:42Or we could simply foreclose on the studio now
00:57:45and none of you get anything ever.
00:57:48Yeah, the question is, are they healthy enough?
00:57:50Yeah. What about insurance?
00:57:52Oh, we'll be wanting you both
00:57:55since you're both in day-to-day management duties
00:57:58to get a physical.
00:58:00What?
00:58:02Sure, the loss of either of you would be a crippling blow.
00:58:04Believe me, I know.
00:58:27I don't get it.
00:58:30Lenny must have signed something.
00:58:32They're basically foreclosing.
00:58:35On the studio?
00:58:41Rick...
00:58:43my mom and I invested everything we had into this.
00:58:50And in case you hadn't noticed,
00:58:52I was the one that kept this place together technically
00:58:54while you were out doing whatever the hell it was you were doing.
00:58:59Jesus, Rick.
00:59:01I wasn't just along for the ride here.
00:59:05I think the ride's over.
00:59:29I'm sorry.
00:59:30I'm sorry.
00:59:31I'm sorry.
00:59:32I'm sorry.
00:59:33I'm sorry.
00:59:34I'm sorry.
00:59:35I'm sorry.
00:59:36I'm sorry.
00:59:37I'm sorry.
00:59:38I'm sorry.
00:59:39I'm sorry.
00:59:40I'm sorry.
00:59:41I'm sorry.
00:59:42I'm sorry.
00:59:43I'm sorry.
00:59:44I'm sorry.
00:59:45I'm sorry.
00:59:46I'm sorry.
00:59:47I'm sorry.
00:59:48I'm sorry.
00:59:49I'm sorry.
00:59:50I'm sorry.
00:59:51I'm sorry.
00:59:52I'm sorry.
00:59:53I'm sorry.
00:59:54I'm sorry.
00:59:55I'm sorry.
00:59:56I'm sorry.
00:59:57I'm sorry.
00:59:58I'm sorry.
00:59:59I'm sorry.
01:00:00I'm sorry.
01:00:01I'm sorry.
01:00:02I'm sorry.
01:00:03I'm sorry.
01:00:04I'm sorry.
01:00:05I'm sorry.
01:00:06I'm sorry.
01:00:07I'm sorry.
01:00:08I'm sorry.
01:00:09I'm sorry.
01:00:10I'm sorry.
01:00:11I'm sorry.
01:00:12I'm sorry.
01:00:13I'm sorry.
01:00:14I'm sorry.
01:00:15I'm sorry.
01:00:16I'm sorry.
01:00:17I'm sorry.
01:00:18I'm sorry.
01:00:19I'm sorry.
01:00:20I'm sorry.
01:00:21I'm sorry.
01:00:22I'm sorry.
01:00:23I'm sorry.
01:00:24I'm sorry.
01:00:25I'm sorry.
01:00:26I'm sorry.
01:00:27I'm sorry.
01:00:28I'm sorry.
01:00:29I'm sorry.
01:00:30I'm sorry.
01:00:31I'm sorry.
01:00:32I'm sorry.
01:00:33I'm sorry.
01:00:34I'm sorry.
01:00:35I'm sorry.
01:00:36I'm sorry.
01:00:37I'm sorry.
01:00:38I'm sorry.
01:00:39I'm sorry.
01:00:40I'm sorry.
01:00:41I'm sorry.
01:00:42I'm sorry.
01:00:43I'm sorry.
01:00:44I'm sorry.
01:00:45I'm sorry.
01:00:46I'm sorry.
01:00:47I'm sorry.
01:00:48I'm sorry.
01:00:49I'm sorry.
01:00:50I'm sorry.
01:00:51I'm sorry.
01:00:52I'm sorry.
01:00:53I'm sorry.
01:00:54I'm sorry.
01:00:55I'm sorry.
01:00:57Maybe it'll bring you more luck than it's brought me.
01:00:59No, you have to.
01:01:10This is still our studio.
01:01:20I'm not letting go without a fight.
01:01:26We're still partners, right?
01:01:28Of course, man.
01:01:35What about physicals?
01:01:37That's when they said I should take out the key man policy
01:01:39and assign the proceeds to them.
01:01:41Yeah, well, why didn't they do it themselves?
01:01:43They're not what you would consider regular businessmen.
01:01:46They don't want to be investigated
01:01:47by insurance companies like you.
01:01:49And they don't want anybody investigating
01:01:52suspicious car accidents.
01:01:54Exactly.
01:01:55What else?
01:01:58What about the gal, Mickalene, huh?
01:02:00She said, Ricky, you better get out.
01:02:09Hello, Mr. Weiner.
01:02:17How could you do that?
01:02:18It was all perfectly legal.
01:02:20You must know that.
01:02:21It's just business.
01:02:26Just walk away, Ricky.
01:02:28What, so you think that this is her warning your brother
01:02:31that they're going to kill him?
01:02:33It's pretty clear to me.
01:02:34Pretty clear to you?
01:02:36Remember who we're dealing with here, huh?
01:02:46I think we've got a problem.
01:02:48Oh?
01:02:49You think so?
01:02:50We've got a system.
01:02:52If he plays by the rules, fine.
01:02:54If not, we got insurance.
01:02:56We did right.
01:02:57We got insurance.
01:02:59Sure, we got our pies on.
01:03:01Got our longstanding relationships.
01:03:04Besides, an obligation is an obligation.
01:03:07Is an obligation.
01:03:09These guys meant business.
01:03:13What else?
01:03:14Anything else?
01:03:15Right after that, Ricky's house burned down.
01:03:17And they insisted the insurance from the fire
01:03:19pay down his debt to Cal.
01:03:20Doesn't that tell you something?
01:03:22Is it arson?
01:03:24Well, they never found any proof.
01:03:32He was devastated.
01:03:34He was devastated.
01:03:36He was devastated.
01:03:38He was devastated.
01:03:40He was devastated.
01:03:42He was devastated.
01:03:45I mean, this was everything he owned.
01:03:47Everything he worked for.
01:03:50And this was all because of Lenny's colossal screw-up.
01:03:54He knew the only way he could get out of this mess
01:03:57was to patch things up between Cal and Lenny.
01:04:15Come in.
01:04:22Hm.
01:04:24I don't know what you know or what you think you know.
01:04:28But I got a pretty good idea why you're here.
01:04:32I'm not gonna sugarcoat this.
01:04:33I'm old and I don't know what I'm doing.
01:04:35I'm not gonna sugarcoat this.
01:04:37I'm not gonna sugarcoat this.
01:04:39I'm not gonna sugarcoat this.
01:04:41I'm not gonna sugarcoat this.
01:04:43I'm old and I don't have to, plus my field, my rules.
01:04:48I don't want to hear what you've got to say.
01:04:52But you listen to me now.
01:04:54Young men like you and yours are a dime a dozen.
01:04:59And I've been around long enough to remember
01:05:01when that expression actually meant something.
01:05:04See, I have old friends in New York.
01:05:08My paisan.
01:05:11Your friend is not the only one who couldn't make his payments.
01:05:15And this we know because my walls are full of their art.
01:05:19My garages, full of their cars.
01:05:22My warehouses are full of their worldly possessions.
01:05:26Of course, an obligation is an obligation.
01:05:30You are never going to see your money back from that studio.
01:05:34That's it.
01:05:35So shut up and take whatever benefits you can
01:05:37from the associations you still have.
01:05:40Because you didn't come here to save your friend.
01:05:44You came here to protect your investment.
01:05:47So you're no hero.
01:05:50I'll tell you what you are.
01:05:53You're a loser.
01:05:55And you're lost again.
01:05:58Interview's over.
01:06:00Now get out.
01:06:08What about Lenny? What about your friend Lenny?
01:06:10What's he doing during all of this?
01:06:13Lenny? My friend Lenny, huh?
01:06:16I understand he wanted to kill himself.
01:06:18What?
01:06:22I thought I'd help buy the arsenic.
01:06:25And for once, Cal agreed with me.
01:06:27So if he screws up anymore,
01:06:29he's not the only one who's going down, you understand?
01:06:32He's your partner.
01:06:34He's the only one who can do what has to be done
01:06:36to get you your 50 grand back.
01:06:38So you have to set him straight, you understand?
01:06:40It's all you now. You.
01:06:53Look, I messed up, man, okay?
01:06:56I thought I could pull it off.
01:06:58You could see that, right?
01:07:00It's New York.
01:07:02I could have pulled it off.
01:07:04If the money had come in faster, I could have turned New York.
01:07:07You lied to all those people.
01:07:09They weren't broad-minded. They deserved it.
01:07:12Is that you talking?
01:07:14Well, Cal...
01:07:16What do you want, huh?
01:07:18A public announcement that I'm a partner in a bankruptcy fraud?
01:07:21That I have lied and perjured myself for monetary gain?
01:07:24If I do that, we lose everything.
01:07:27No, no, listen, maybe not.
01:07:29Maybe we go to a bank, we get a line...
01:07:32No, no.
01:07:34Why?
01:07:36That's not going to work.
01:07:38Because I went bankrupt once before all this.
01:07:45Oh, what is that?
01:07:47What?
01:07:49Maybe I should just take myself out, huh?
01:07:51Make it easier for everybody else, is that it?
01:07:53Huh? What, you still carry a gun?
01:07:55Shut up, man. Get out of here.
01:07:57Shut up, man. Get out of here.
01:07:59Come on. Hey.
01:08:01It's not like you don't blame me.
01:08:04Just like all the rest.
01:08:06Come on.
01:08:08Give me the goddamn gun, I don't like it.
01:08:10Come on, give me the goddamn gun.
01:08:12Give it to me!
01:08:13What, are you a tough guy, huh?
01:08:15Is this what you want? Is this what you want?
01:08:17Goddamn it!
01:08:27Come on.
01:08:58Come on.
01:09:00No, don't do that.
01:09:02Come on.
01:09:06Wait a minute, you don't think that maybe, you know,
01:09:08the two of them in this car...
01:09:10What, that he could have killed himself?
01:09:12Why not?
01:09:13And my brother?
01:09:14Yeah.
01:09:15You still don't believe Cal was the murderer, do you?
01:09:17I didn't say that.
01:09:18Yeah, yeah, please, please.
01:09:19Look, prove it.
01:09:21Lenny goes to Vegas to see Cal.
01:09:23Christ, is this another one of these...
01:09:25Just listen, just listen, just listen.
01:09:28Lenny had a condo in Vegas,
01:09:30but that night he lent it to Jackie James.
01:09:33You know, the guy who originally owned the studio?
01:09:37Come on.
01:09:51And Ricky got this call to come to the condo.
01:09:54They couldn't reach Lenny.
01:10:07We got lots of them.
01:10:17Ricky was really shaken.
01:10:19He knew what this was supposed to mean.
01:10:23Okay, so you think that Cal was after Lenny.
01:10:26It seems obvious to me, yeah.
01:10:28All right, well, where was Lenny?
01:10:30Lenny is shacked up with a bimbo at the horseshoe.
01:10:32And where's your brother?
01:10:34You mean after he went to the condo?
01:10:36He came back to be at Jackie's funeral.
01:10:56He... he was very torn up, Mr. Fuller.
01:11:00He liked Jackie, you know.
01:11:02A regular guy, killed like in some gangster movie.
01:11:33And may he hear the prayers and supplications on our lips.
01:11:37May the words in our hearts find him
01:11:41and speed his son onward to the world of souls.
01:11:46And may his sovereignty reign forever and ever.
01:11:50Amen.
01:12:02He said Cal was there, and frankly, he felt threatened.
01:12:33He was scared, Mr. Fuller.
01:12:35That still doesn't prove anything.
01:12:37I don't believe this.
01:12:38You still don't believe that Cal's a murderer.
01:12:40I mean, Lenny's apartment, a guy dies.
01:12:42I didn't say that.
01:12:43You think this goes... I think I'll die.
01:12:44I'm not saying that.
01:12:45This guy's a total coincidence.
01:12:46I'm not saying I don't believe it.
01:12:47It's a total coincidence.
01:12:48I didn't say that.
01:12:49God damn it!
01:12:50Can I finish, please?
01:12:51Can I finish?
01:12:55Ricky flies up to Vegas and drives back with Lenny.
01:12:59He calls me from Vegas and tells me they're getting out.
01:13:02About time, man.
01:13:03I think you're doing the right thing.
01:13:05Lenny tells me he thinks he sees Cal,
01:13:08thinks he's been followed all the way from L.A.
01:13:11Hello?
01:13:29Hello?
01:13:37I didn't hear from him again until he called and said
01:13:39he and Lenny traveled for hours with hardly a word.
01:13:47He wanted me to tell Mom he loved her
01:13:51and asked me to take care of her.
01:13:54So what does that tell you, Mr. Fuller?
01:13:57That maybe he could see his own end coming?
01:14:04It certainly seems pretty clear to me.
01:14:09He even said they spent most of their time watching their tail.
01:14:24I think when Cal realized his goons got the wrong guy,
01:14:32he flew to Vegas and figured out a way
01:14:35to make the real thing look like a car accident.
01:14:40That's not enough.
01:14:42Well, that's all I got.
01:14:46Kathy Allison, she's in the records department.
01:14:48This is her.
01:14:50Kathy Allison, she's in the records department.
01:14:52This is John Fuller.
01:14:54Look, I called to ask a favor.
01:14:56If you could check something out for me.
01:14:59If you have the time.
01:15:01Yeah, it's a guy.
01:15:03I'm trying to close a file out on him.
01:15:05His name is Cal Roman.
01:15:07C-A-L-R-O-M-A-N.
01:15:11You didn't need to do this, John.
01:15:13I think Cal Roman murdered those two guys.
01:15:16Geez, you don't give up, do you?
01:15:17He had motive, he had opportunity.
01:15:19He's got a track record.
01:15:20Really?
01:15:21You have witnesses?
01:15:22You got a weapon?
01:15:23Confession?
01:15:24Fingerprints?
01:15:25Do you have anything?
01:15:26I got a list of five policies
01:15:27bought and paid for by Cal Roman.
01:15:29Never up front, always indirect.
01:15:31He's putting the money up.
01:15:32Three of the five beneficiaries
01:15:34on these policies are already dead.
01:15:36And what's worse, I'm given
01:15:37the investigation of these cases.
01:15:39Through you.
01:15:41And the name Cal Roman, I've never seen it before.
01:15:43Made no connection.
01:15:45Well, maybe you weren't sober long enough to notice.
01:15:48Maybe that's why I was given the cases.
01:15:50Oh, come on.
01:15:52Yeah, pretty smart, Bryson.
01:15:53Maybe you're in on it, huh?
01:15:5410%, 15% cut, what?
01:15:56I process claims.
01:15:58I'm not a cop.
01:16:00Nobody has ever come to me with proof of anything.
01:16:04You're gonna nail him.
01:16:06I'm gonna nail him.
01:16:07And if I have to, I'll nail you.
01:16:10Him?
01:16:11You're gonna nail him?
01:16:13Roman?
01:16:14He's dead.
01:16:15You didn't hear this?
01:16:16He had a heart attack last night.
01:16:17He's dead, Fuller.
01:16:22Get over it.
01:16:24Get out of here.
01:16:25I don't want to see you in here again.
01:16:26You understand?
01:16:27Get out.
01:16:37I had a man.
01:16:38I just needed more time.
01:16:41You cracked the case.
01:16:42You're back in form.
01:16:43Move on.
01:16:44No, no, it's not that.
01:16:45It's now I'm a nut.
01:16:46It's back to being Mr, uh, you know, drunk.
01:16:49I'm a bum.
01:16:51You know what I need?
01:16:53I need an autopsy.
01:16:56Really?
01:16:57I was just thinking your color looks so good.
01:17:00No, there's an insurance report on Roman, right?
01:17:04Yeah.
01:17:05I can get it.
01:17:06You can help me with it.
01:17:08I suppose.
01:17:09Why?
01:17:10I need it.
01:17:11It'll cost you.
01:17:13Cost me what?
01:17:14Well, better than this.
01:17:15No, that's too great a price to pay.
01:17:17Oh, well, then forget it.
01:17:18Oh, come on.
01:17:19Mm-mm.
01:17:20OK.
01:17:23Findings of nitroglycerin in the heart stream.
01:17:26Section B, line 12.
01:17:28DH7.
01:17:29Mm-hmm.
01:17:30The hydromethyl 7.
01:17:32Well, what is that?
01:17:33He was having sex problems.
01:17:36You're kidding.
01:17:37Mm-mm.
01:17:39Mr. Fuller.
01:17:41How are you?
01:17:43What do you want?
01:17:48Well, Cal Roman is dead.
01:17:51Yeah, so I heard.
01:17:53From information.
01:17:55His name is on five different policies.
01:17:58Three of those five policy holders are dead as well.
01:18:02So he killed himself.
01:18:05So he killed others besides just my brother, huh?
01:18:07Apparently so.
01:18:10Ho, ho, ho.
01:18:11That son of a bitch.
01:18:13Come on in.
01:18:15Thank you.
01:18:18So there'll probably be an investigation,
01:18:20and whoever's connected with this will be brought to justice.
01:18:23Mr. Fuller, I mean it.
01:18:25I want to thank you.
01:18:26You're welcome.
01:18:28Now, you don't mind if I ask you just a few more questions?
01:18:32Why?
01:18:33What else is there?
01:18:34Well, you told me once, if you remember,
01:18:36that you used to fill Cal Roman's prescriptions exclusively.
01:18:39Is that right?
01:18:40Yeah, I mean, I value my life.
01:18:43I didn't want there to be any mistakes, you know?
01:18:45I looked into Cal Roman's autopsy.
01:18:48So?
01:18:49They found traces of a chemical.
01:18:52A chemical called dihydromethyl 7.
01:18:58You testing me?
01:19:00You testing me?
01:19:02I passed a pharmacy exam years ago.
01:19:04You want to see the degree?
01:19:06Well, it's a chemical compound usually found in male potency drugs.
01:19:10Okay, if you say so.
01:19:12And if this compound somehow found itself into somebody's usual heart medication,
01:19:16it could cause cardiac arrest.
01:19:19So what's your point?
01:19:21Did Cal Roman ask you for a male potency drug?
01:19:25Mr. Fuller, I'm a pharmacist.
01:19:27I fill out 1,000 prescriptions a day.
01:19:29Wait a minute.
01:19:30Didn't you just say that you filled his prescriptions exclusively?
01:19:34For fear of losing your own life.
01:19:39What are you doing?
01:19:40Where are you going with this?
01:19:41You think I gave him a potency drug so he'd, what, screw himself to death?
01:19:45That's your idea of humor?
01:19:47No, I think you mixed traces of this chemical compound
01:19:50onto his usual dosage of nitroglycerin,
01:19:52and you caused him to have a massive coronary attack.
01:19:55I think that you killed Cal Roman, believing that he killed your brother.
01:19:58Fine.
01:19:59Everybody's entitled to an opinion.
01:20:00I guess that's yours, huh?
01:20:03Mm-hmm.
01:20:04Mm-hmm.
01:20:05What about this?
01:20:09I don't know.
01:20:10What's this?
01:20:11A vial?
01:20:12What?
01:20:13Yeah, it's a vial.
01:20:14A vial I had analyzed,
01:20:15and I found traces of this compound mixed with nitroglycerin.
01:20:19Okay, look.
01:20:20I've had it.
01:20:21I've got to get out of here.
01:20:22Come on.
01:20:23I'm a busy man.
01:20:24It's got your fingerprints on it.
01:20:25Cal Roman's.
01:20:26Exclusively.
01:20:28Maybe a doctor prescribed it.
01:20:29No doctor in his right mind would prescribe this medication
01:20:32for a man with a heart condition.
01:20:34You prescribed it, Mel.
01:20:36You prescribed it.
01:20:37You filled it.
01:20:38You killed Cal Roman, believing that he killed your brother.
01:20:45You ever lose anybody close to you,
01:20:47like a relative or a family member, in an accident?
01:20:53As a matter of fact, I have.
01:20:56Then you'll know the strangest thing,
01:20:59in addition to everything else you feel,
01:21:01are those memories.
01:21:03Where do they come from, huh?
01:21:05You know what I remember about Ricky?
01:21:09Banana splits.
01:21:12This kid comes home.
01:21:14He's 7 years old.
01:21:15All his friends have had a banana split,
01:21:17and he says to me,
01:21:18Hey, Mel, what's so great about a banana split?
01:21:22You take a banana, you split it.
01:21:25Why is that a great dessert?
01:21:28So I buy my baby brother his first banana split.
01:21:34Three scoops of ice cream.
01:21:37Pineapple.
01:21:38Strawberries.
01:21:39Hot fudge.
01:21:41Whipped cream and a cherry on top.
01:21:45And he eats the whole thing.
01:21:47He gobbles it down.
01:21:51He's got this smile on his face.
01:21:53There's whipped cream and hot fudge all over it.
01:21:55He says, Thanks, Mel.
01:21:56Now I know what a banana split is.
01:21:59And you know what?
01:22:02That night, you know what happens?
01:22:07He throws up.
01:22:10All over the house, he just throws up.
01:22:14But he knew what a banana split was,
01:22:16and he knew that his big brother bought it for him.
01:22:20He wanted to be a big shot, that's all.
01:22:24He wouldn't harm a fly.
01:22:27And for that, he gets killed for no reason whatsoever.
01:22:31And I'm sorry.
01:22:33It's not fair.
01:22:36I don't think a guy should get killed for that, do you?
01:22:42You made a mistake, Mel.
01:22:48What?
01:22:49You made a mistake.
01:22:52Cal Roman didn't kill your brother.
01:22:56A little more investigating turned up an eyewitness.
01:22:59Harlan Brown, a farmer outside Barstow,
01:23:01didn't want the trouble, so he didn't report it.
01:23:03Then he got scared and...
01:23:07Filed a police report, we found it.
01:23:09Barstow, two guys in a car, Interstate 26.
01:23:1290 miles an hour, swerved to miss an animal,
01:23:14went into a ravine, car burst into flames.
01:23:19You want to read the report?
01:23:30I'm not really interested, okay?
01:23:32Officer, were there any other vehicles involved?
01:23:35Brown, no.
01:23:36Sir, there was nothing else on the road.
01:23:40Hardly ever is that time of day.
01:23:50Cal Roman didn't kill your brother, Mel.
01:23:53As good or as bad as he was, he didn't kill your brother.
01:23:57What about the others?
01:23:58What about the others?
01:23:59Well, as bad as it looks, and it does look bad...
01:24:03Purely circumstantial.
01:24:12I got to call this in.
01:24:14I'm sorry.
01:24:24Well...
01:24:27It has nothing to do with me.
01:24:34Detective Beckner.
01:24:36John Fuller here.
01:24:38Oh, hi.
01:24:40Now, it's been a long time.
01:24:42Yeah, I'm calling something in.
01:24:46So, Bryson is indicted on two counts.
01:24:48Yeah, yeah, yeah, you told me, John.
01:24:50So, there they are.
01:24:52I don't know what I'm going to say to her.
01:24:54We'll think of something.
01:24:56I haven't seen him in a year.
01:24:57Kids have a different sense of time.
01:25:01All I thought about was killing the guy that ran my daughter down.
01:25:04Yeah, and you didn't.
01:25:05Yeah, but I wanted to.
01:25:08I was obsessed, just like this guy Mel.
01:25:11I could have done what he did.
01:25:14Focus.
01:25:15Timmy's here.
01:25:16He's waiting to see you.
01:25:18You're right.
01:25:19And when you're right, you're really right.
01:25:22I'm going to go play.
