00:00I brought you a gift.

00:05I have to tell the world that I'm a Muslim. That's my fate.

00:08So, you're gonna take a dive.

00:09What do you want me to do, Mel?

00:11Well, I want you to get the tape.

00:13Where'd you fight?

00:14I took care of that tape.

00:21You sell to Johnson, or anyone else,

00:23you're gonna have a serious problem on your hands.

00:25Let's not forget, you're just a yakking boss while Vito's in the can.

00:29You were his fucking driver, for Christ's sakes!

00:32I'm trying to walk the line with me and me this time around, you know?

00:35I'm sure I'll be seeing you soon.

00:38You wanna talk about your illegal numbers operation?

00:41The Guineas? They run the banks.

00:43But the blacks and the latinos, they get pinched off the street every day.

00:47I'll sign you right now if you cut that for me as your first single.

00:50You were a shitty father.

00:52But I'm a shitty daughter, and I know that too.

00:54Get clean. Get a job. Get all right.

00:58I have faith in you.

00:59You and me are gonna be at war until one of us is dead.

01:05Winner, by unanimous decision, Cassius Clay!

01:10Hey!

01:16Hey, comin' in!

01:18Get all the stuff!

01:25Guys, open!

01:26I told you how to guard check every truck! From top to bottom!

01:30Shut up!

02:17What?

02:18Why?

02:19You!

02:22I know.

02:24I know.

02:26I know.

02:27You're incorrect.

02:28Can you...?

02:33I know.

02:34I know.

02:35Okay.

02:38Yeah.

02:40Here...

02:45Mommy.

03:15Open up my window again.

03:43I can end up calling my name.

03:49I can end up calling again.

03:51I swear to God things ain't gonna change.

03:54I swear to God things ain't gonna change.

03:56I keep a revolver with your name.

03:59I keep a revolver with your name.

04:01Just in case.

04:03Lay on my back watching the ceiling fan.

04:06I had a dream to touch a kilogram.

04:08Still at odds with the Irish mob.

04:11Roast Race down Malcolm X Boulevard.

04:14Lord, these haters really got your brand on me.

04:16Got the 40 on me and the stand on me.

04:19Snow white mink like them Dutch shoes.

04:21Run the books and let me show you how the numbers look.

04:24You can't be lucky like you Luciano.

04:27The kilos coming like they do pianos.

04:30The fat boy got the big body.

04:32Coast to coast I can shoot product.

04:36Open up my window again.

04:38Open up my window again.

04:41I can end up calling my name.

04:44I can end up calling again.

04:46I swear to God things ain't gonna change.

04:49I swear to God things ain't gonna change.

04:52I keep a revolver with your name.

04:54I keep a revolver with your name.

04:57Just in case.

04:59Bumpy Johnson had the balls to hit us.

05:02We hit him back twice as hard.

05:04It was fucking beautiful.

05:05We opened up with those Thompsons.

05:07The niggas dropped like turrets.

05:08I told you this guy was special.

05:09I remember when we made him an associate.

05:11I said this guy is special.

05:12You did.

05:13You said he was special.

05:14Now we got Johnson on the run.

05:17We got to press the advantage.

05:19We really got to put his ass in a sling now.

05:21You think this will put me over the top?

05:28On top of what?

05:32Making my bones.

05:38Books are closed.

05:40It's all I dream about getting made, you know?

05:43That's all you dream about.

05:50I thought all you thought about was Stella.

05:55You want to get in the underpants.

05:57What?

05:59Me what?

06:01You heard me.

06:03No, of course not.

06:07So you're only interested in her because you think I'm gonna bump you up?

06:10I'm interested in her because I've been in love with her since the fourth grade.

06:14So you do want to get in the underpants.

06:17Huh?

06:20Huh?

06:27Femina.

06:29Tu sin amala femina.

06:34Que estoy aquí fati aniera.

06:39La creme infamida.

06:40All right, all right, all right.

06:43Very nice.

06:44I'll make your fucking bones.

06:45You're butchering the song.

06:46Stop it.

06:47Stop it.

06:51How do I look?

06:52I advise against this.

06:54Why?

06:55Because it clashes with my robe?

06:57Take this issue on, they'll come after you.

06:58You'll need a police bodyguard.

07:00I don't need anyone dressed in blue next to me as long as I got God at my side.

07:05God cannot protect you from a bullet to the back of the head.

07:09Now can you explain to me why on earth you're doing this?

07:12Because our people are being treated like shit.

07:18Take a woman.

07:20Let's call her Mildred.

07:22Mildred had a dream last night that a big old catfish jump right out of the river on 8th Avenue.

07:30This morning she goes to her dream book.

07:33And don't lie, I know many of you have one.

07:36And next to catfish it says 514.

07:40She places her bet with her numbers runner, $1 on 514 straight.

07:46514.

07:48This is our homegrown Negro lottery and the largest single employer in Harlem.

07:53With a faith as powerful as Jesus' walk to Gethsemane, our Mildred, where she waits for the day's number to be announced.

08:04A number that is determined by the betting tally at the racetrack.

08:10These last three digits are published in the newspaper.

08:21And become the day's number.

08:27A number that most often results in a lost dollar.

08:32But once in a while, just as Jesus began his journey to heaven from the garden, Mildred begins hers.

08:43And just like Jesus was betrayed by Judas in the garden of Gethsemane, we are betrayed in harmony.

08:51Betrayed by a government and police force that arrests fines and incarcerates Negroes while letting the Italian bankers who make the real money remain untouched.

09:03Amen!

09:04Now I am against numbers betting in any hole.

09:10But until the day the numbers is wiped out in Harlem, I will fight for the right, for the Negro to have the same chance as in Italian.

09:25I will use my congressional immunity to enter into the congressional record the name of one Italian numbers operation each week that the police do not break.

09:36Amen!

09:38Amen!

09:42Hallelujah!

09:55That's good, Teddy. We'll move the mic, get a little distance and go again.

10:16He's killing it in there. It's gonna be a great demo. We'll get it to some DJs for some airplay.

10:25Start Teddy on some hops, local clubs, build word of mouth.

10:28It says here you get publishing and master rights to the song.

10:31Standard.

10:33Not necessarily. I heard Sam Cooke retains his master rights.

10:38Teddy's no Sam Cooke.

10:39He will be.

10:40What the hell do you know about this industry?

10:41I know when my man's getting ripped off.

10:43Your man? Sister, you need to get off this kick. At least while he's up and coming.

10:48Negro's writing a song about fighting Whitey and he's got Betty Crocker on his side.

10:53The world's changing, old man.

10:55You think the sun comes up just to hear you crow?

11:02Ain't nothing more difficult than telling a woman a man is gone.

11:10Nobody does it better than Bumpy.

11:16Yeah.

11:18He's had practice.

11:22I know it's hot, but your mom, she's gonna take care of you, alright?

11:25I know it was a friend.

11:26I know he wants you to hide it.

11:27It's okay.

11:28It's okay.

11:29It's okay.

11:30You need anything?

11:31Come to me, alright?

11:32Talk to me.

11:33Talk to me.

11:34It's okay.

11:35It's okay.

11:36It's okay.

11:37It's okay.

11:38It's okay.

11:39It's okay.

11:40It's okay.

11:41It's okay.

11:42You need anything?

11:43Come to me, alright?

11:44Talk to me.

11:45It's okay.

11:46Talk to me.

11:48It's okay.

11:49I'll be ready.

11:51Let me show you what I'm going to go.

11:57Get that street gang, the Copians...

11:59...to protect our runners.

12:00Resultate all our spots with round the clock security.

12:04Mom, the Copians are just kids.

12:07They ain't the muscle we need.

12:09I got the muscle.

12:10Who?

12:11United States government.

12:13That's it.

12:15Get the fuck outta here guys.

12:18Oh, well, thank you, darling.

12:27Who's the first?

12:28The first what?

12:29The first Italian numbers, Banker, you're going to enter into the congressional record.

12:32Well, how the hell do I know?

12:34You promised the congregation one Italian a week.

12:37Why is Jack Kennedy playing possum with my identity to the civil rights legislation?

12:40Adam, you're evading.

12:42Now, as much as I hate to admit it, you hit a nerve with that sermon.

12:46And some people put names in the suggestion box.

12:48You're going to have to name names.

12:49Well, who'd they put in the suggestion box?

12:52That's the problem.

12:54No one named any Italians.

12:56Too frightened, I guess.

12:58But a Negro woman got named several times, Esther James.

13:02Apparently, she delivers bags of cash between the Italians and the cops.

13:06They call her the bag lady.

13:07What damn good is that going to do me?

13:09I'm supposed to be fighting for Negroes, not ratting them out.

13:13Don't worry, Roy.

13:15I got a call from Bumpy Johnson.

13:17The guinea's fucked up his store with Ron Lennox, and he's ready to help.

13:22I don't think Johnson's the right resource.

13:25He's a criminal.

13:26If I was afraid of rubbing elbows with criminals, I wouldn't have become a congressman.

13:30It sounds so good.

13:36It did, didn't it?

13:36It did.

13:37It's happening, Teddy.

13:40Stop.

13:41How long will we have?

13:42As long as my father thinks you're dead, we're safe.

13:45It's going to be kind of tough if I get as famous as every day we're doing it.

13:49Oh, Christ.

13:50Is this your pimp?

13:53I had experience prior to going into the penitentiary.

13:59I'm quite sure.

13:59The only experience that we can find, Mr. Hopper, is experience in armed robbery.

14:04Wow.

14:04Mr. Hopper, did you arrange for him to come to work for Local 332 after he came out of

14:10the penitentiary for armed robbery?

14:13I don't believe, if my memory serves me right, that he went to work for 332 after night after

14:18Why would you want to do anything to draw federal attention?

14:22Because I can work with Adam Clayton Powell.

14:24Uncle Herman Kierdorf, he came to work for the Local 332 shortly after he got out of

14:31the penitentiary.

14:33You're going to offer up names of Italian numbers, man.

14:37She's going to be first.

14:40That's never been your way.

14:44You're not a snitch.

14:48I have to visit four widows today because of that motherfucker.

14:54I wish you'd considered doing that before you went to Alcatraz.

14:58I would have had you home a lot sooner.

15:11Fuck them.

15:14Go for it.

15:14In the position, and there is plenty of men in Flint, I'm not a move of handling this

15:20job.

15:20Is it a good train to be serving time in the penitentiary for armed robbery to serve as a

15:26business aid?

15:27Thanks.

15:29Here you go.

15:30Fuck.

15:33One and a half.

15:34One, two, three, four.

15:48Good morning, ladies.

15:50Good morning, ladies.

15:52You see the headlines, Morgan?

15:56The March on Washington is set for August 28th.

16:00You're going to get a boatload of bets on that number.

16:038-28?

16:05Same thing happened when Willie Mason 380.

16:08Everybody in Harlem bet 380.

16:11And they all lost.

16:14How is the incomparably lovely Mrs. Johnson?

16:19She fight.

16:20I never thought I'd be fighting for equality in the numbers business, but this thing is

16:24on fire.

16:26I have an interview at my office today with Lester Wolfe.

16:29Certain of my congregants tell me that it's a woman, Esther James.

16:32They say she delivers bags of cash for the Italians damn near every day.

16:39I wouldn't play with Esther James.

16:41She'd love her to knock you out.

16:43You hear me?

16:43I'm not talking about Esther.

16:45Esther, I am talking about the Italians now.

16:51You offered to give me names.

16:59All right, I need you to take every name I give you, launch an investigation in every

17:03single one, make sure that they go out of business, and straight to prison, all right?

17:08I'm sure you've heard of the congressional hearings that I'm chairing, where Mr. Joseph

17:12Belachi has decided to spill the beans on the mob, or you will have the same blanket immunity

17:19that we've given Belachi, and that's when she'll live to be honored.

17:27Those brothers got to look out for each other, right, Daddy-O?

17:36Hey.

17:36Now, dress up those names.

17:46Come on, man.

17:49This is between you and me and the congressional record.

17:57I'm waiting.

17:59Tick-tock.

18:01Tick-tock.

18:03Tick-tock.

18:06I'm not a snitch, man.

18:08This is not snitching.

18:09This is good business.

18:10This is good business.

18:12I'd rather be dead.

18:16Bumpy.

18:17What have you done for the community lately?

18:22Handouts to the Paw are on community service.

18:24That's just giving back a little bit of what you stole.

18:28Good day.

18:29Good, Paw.

18:29Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss contains its own seed, its own lesson on how

18:45to improve your performance next time.

18:51I don't know what brought me back here.

18:52I fucked it up last time.

18:57I don't see a path for myself out there.

19:01I hate myself out there.

19:06Who taught you to hate yourself from the top of your head to the soles of your feet?

19:10I know you're going to say the white man, but he ain't responsible.

19:12Who else?

19:13My father.

19:14At least your father is a complicated man.

19:24All that paying people's rent, putting kids into college, the turkeys on Christmas, that

19:29don't cost nothing to a man with money.

19:32I've often thought of Bumpy as a stone with many facets.

19:38Intellect, rage, pent-up emotion.

19:42You forgot pride.

19:45Pride.

19:48You want to know the key to my father?

19:51He may be a big man in Harlem, but if he goes south of 110th Street, he's just another

19:56nigger.

19:59I don't think he can ever get over that.

20:08You say you love movies and you haven't seen Cleopatra?

20:11Elizabeth Taylor's costumes are gorgeous.

20:16Did you know she made 65 costume changes in that movie?

20:2365?

20:24Yeah.

20:25Well, I'd change 65 times if I got to fuck Richard Burton.

20:34Did you ever see The Great Escape?

20:36I love that flick.

20:38Steve McQueen did all that motorcycle stuff.

20:40I should know your name before I cruise you any harder.

20:45I'm Peter.

20:47Gordon.

20:47Hey, speaking of movies, did you see Victim?

20:55God, I hated that film.

20:57Even the title.

20:58It was another tragic movie where homosexuals are the victims.

21:03Enough.

21:04We should be like the Negroes.

21:07You know, protest, march, sit in, be seen as real people.

21:13Yeah.

21:16Feel pretty alone sometimes.

21:18I'm talking too much.

21:23I do that.

21:24No, no, no, no, don't apologize.

21:29Can we go somewhere?

21:30You scream, and I'll blow your fucking face off.

21:46You hear me?

21:49Now, my name is not Peter, and you're sure as hell ain't Gordon.

21:53Tomorrow morning, I'm going to tell your boss and your boss's boss

21:57what a fucking deviant, cocksucking queer you are.

22:00Your marriage, over.

22:03Your job at the racetrack, gone.

22:06And that's just for starters.

22:09Unless you can do me a favor, Jason.

22:25Hey, my man.

22:25What did they get you for?

22:31I'm fucking a white girl.

22:34Damn.

22:38What about you guys?

22:39We're with us to the Nonviolent Coordinating Committee.

22:44Arrested us for loitering at the sit-in at Woolworths.

22:48We'll get bailed out within an hour.

22:49We're going to head right back down there.

22:51You want to join?

22:52No, I'm a musician.

22:56I'm not political.

22:58Change is coming, brother.

23:02You're a Negro man living in America.

23:04You don't have the option to not be political.

23:07Don't you want to live in a world where you don't get thrown in jail for fucking a white girl?

23:09I tried to get other bankers to take some of our action, but we can't lay off this bet, Bumpy.

23:21To nobody.

23:23I went to Madam Sables, Slade, the Brantley Brothers.

23:27Nobody's touching this number.

23:29I hear Chin Gigante's runners have been taking this number all day.

23:32His doors are closed to 8-2-8.

23:34I don't get what the fuss is all about.

23:37Out of a thousand possibilities, what are the chances 8-2-8 actually hits?

23:41If Chin won't take this bet, something's going down.

23:50And that's a close third.

23:53Hospitality moves as a fourth.

23:54Kemprow, still in position by...

23:56Director Simpson maintains the lead.

23:58Kemprow now across the third.

24:00At the 16th hole, Kemprow moves off right or wrong side.

24:04And that's Kemprow in the lead.

24:05Grimson in second along the rail.

24:07And Kemprow gave across the third.

24:09Hospitality moves as a fourth.

24:11Kemprow still in front of the second.

24:13Fire up front.

24:14Kemprow's in second position.

24:16Kemprow in third.

24:18And as the opponent's in his side,

24:19it's Kemprow, the winner by one man.

24:22Just okay, second.

24:23Here's the betting total for the day, boss.

24:252,345,828.

24:30We did it.

24:33We fixed the fucking number.

24:34What an exciting finish today, ladies.

24:378-2-8.

24:38That is victory.

24:40Good work, Arnie.

24:42You know, that proves two things.

24:45The niggas fuck with us.

24:47They rue the day they fuck with us.

24:50And Ernie Nunzi makes a very good finocchio.

24:55Maybe too good.

24:56All right, watch it.

24:57Hey, we broke Bumpy Johnson's bank.

25:00Now he's gonna need money.

25:05He's gonna seek out a partner.

25:06Who's gonna help that son of a bitch?

25:09That's exactly what we need to find out.

25:11And I saw that junkie Izzy betting $10.

25:15That motherfucker never has two nickels to rub together.

25:17Chips boy's giving money to bet.

25:19To fix the whole thing, they'll wipe me out.

25:21I didn't see it coming.

25:23So if it was a fix, we ain't gotta pay folks off.

25:27That's our problem.

25:28Not the folks who bet.

25:31We start with partial payments.

25:33People don't understand.

25:3425 cents on the dollar.

25:35We'll make full payment by the end of the day.

25:37Now how can you promise that?

25:39Look, nearly 875 people hit the fucking number.

25:43At 600 to 1, that totals nearly $300,000.

25:46We ain't got that money.

25:47I'll find it.

26:03You hit!

26:04Find it?

26:05You hit!

26:06Did you find Teddy?

26:07The number you asked me to get, 828, it hit.

26:10Mama, where you rich?

26:17Stella Gigante.

26:29Where the fuck have you been?

26:31I've been asking for someone for the last nine hours.

26:33Do you have any idea what my father's gonna do to you?

26:36Didn't see your name on the booking log until this morning.

26:39Don't worry, this is all gonna go away.

26:42I need to make a phone call.

26:47So you're a musician, huh?

26:59What you got?

27:03Too many days like this

27:10Too many times to forget

27:15Too tired to back down now

27:20Too tired to watch my mouth

27:24When my hands go up

27:29Oh, they don't fall

27:33Till it all falls down

27:36Take it, brother

27:52That's what I'm talking about

27:55Right on

27:58I'll be right there

28:00I'll be right there

28:01That's what the next thing to the day

28:05It's one day

28:06This weekend

28:10You know anybody

28:11Ain't that nobody

28:22Do not

28:22I'd

28:22Do not

28:23Hello, who's this?

28:38It's Stella Gigante.

28:41Where's Teddy?

28:42He's in jail at the precinct on 116th.

28:46Don't worry, it's a false arrest.

28:47It's all going to go away, but you need to go and bail him out quickly.

28:51Yes, yes, I'm going.

28:55Why are you calling me?

28:58Because we both love him, and we're the only ones he has.

29:04Stay away from my boy.

29:21Your Muslim girl training will serve as your introduction into the faith.

29:35You'll attend classes that will bring out your natural, God-given skills and talents.

29:41You'll receive instructions on speech, dress, hygiene, and etiquette.

29:46Why is it called Muslim girls training?

29:52The name girls is used to connect our submissive nature to God's will.

29:58It's a word of honor.

29:59I see you in good hands, Sister Elyse.

30:06Sister Marnie is one of our finest and most respected sisters.

30:10Thank you, Minister Malcolm.

30:11Absolutely.

30:13So how are you?

30:16It's all new to me.

30:17I'm trying to learn.

30:19The theme of the nation is know thyself.

30:23It is the pathway to becoming whole again.

30:25As-salamu alaykum, Sister Elyse.

30:30Sister Marnie.

30:37You're not the first.

30:40The first?

30:41The first to be swept away by him.

30:44Flirting will get you nowhere.

30:45I wasn't flirting.

30:47Malcolm is a friend of my father's.

30:50Don't be lured.

30:52He's just a man.

30:55What are you doing here?

31:14You're lucky it was me who took the sergeant's call at the club.

31:18He said you got arrested with a young negro named Teddy Green.

31:20I won't tell your father until the break is hot.

31:27You're not going to tell my father.

31:29And you're not going to touch Teddy.

31:32Because if there's one thing my father would hate even more than me fucking Teddy,

31:36it's that you fucked up and killed the wrong guy.

31:39You got it?

31:40Well, it's good to see you, Lester.

31:58Good to see you, too, Reverend.

31:59How are you?

32:00I'm doing really well, thank you.

32:01Good, good, good.

32:02High time you made it up here.

32:03Well, you know, I was all set to talk about your European trip with Miss Ohio.

32:08Miss Ohio, very nice girl.

32:09You changed the dialogue.

32:11Well, if you don't set the tone of the conversation, Lester, it sets you.

32:15No.

32:16That's what American politics is all about.

32:19One incendiary comment sets the press all of Twitter.

32:22And then you enact your real agenda while they gab like schoolgirls on sorority Sunday.

32:34You know, next time you're in Sag Harbor, you'll have to spend some time on my boat.

32:37I'll teach you how to water ski.

32:38Water ski?

32:39Don't you know Negroes can't swim?

32:44Okay, you ready to go?

32:45I'm ready when you are.

32:48And in three, two, one.

32:52Hello, I'm Lester Wolfe, and this is Wolfe at Large.

32:56Today, I'm at the Harlem Congressional Office of Congressman and Reverend Adam Clayton Powell, Jr.

33:04Good day, Reverend.

33:05Hello, Lester.

33:06Now, recently, Reverend Powell, you made headlines with your assertion that the Italian mob controls the illegal numbers operations in Harlem.

33:15It's more than an assertion.

33:16It's a stone-cold fact.

33:17And it's your belief that Negroes are arrested and incarcerated at a far greater rate than the men who control the gambling operation.

33:26If you don't believe me, check the police logs.

33:29In the last three days, more than 100 Negro numbers runners have been arrested.

33:35Not a single white Italian.

33:39Who are these Italians?

33:41At the appropriate time, my team will lay bare those names to the American people.

33:46You offered to enter the name of an Italian banker into the congressional record every week, but thus far, none have been entered.

33:53We continue to gather information.

33:57Without specific names, it appears you're stirring the pot, so reporters will gab like schoolgirls on Sorority Sunday.

34:06I have names.

34:10Who?

34:12I'm not at liberty to...

34:13Not a single one.

34:14Not one single name to convince this reporter that this story merits attention.

34:19In fact, through my very well-placed sources, we have identified a woman, a Negro woman, actually, who is the key go-between, the bag lady, if you will, for the Italian mob.

34:39Her name is Esther James.

34:49I hope you don't mind, I'm having a martini.

35:03Cheers.

35:04Cheers.

35:10Have a seat, honey. Make yourself comfortable.

35:12So, three hundred and twelve thousand dollars.

35:32Hmm.

35:33You're in quite a pickle.

35:36Pay you back with interest.

35:39Six months at the most.

35:41I trust you.

35:42I'll get my checkbook.

35:45Change out of this dress.

35:49You make yourself at home.

35:54Take off your shoes.

36:00One more.

36:09Okay.

36:10Damn.

36:23Fuck.

36:24Fuck.

36:26Fuck.

36:28Fuck.

36:58Fuck.

37:28Fuck.

37:37Did you get the money?

37:40No.

37:44It's not like you haven't fucked her before.

37:53There were so many centuries where we didn't own our own bodies.

37:59Someone else owned them.

38:02Maybe that's why it seems easy to give it away.

38:12So no.

38:16I couldn't do it.

38:28I love you.

38:34I love you too.

38:37I love you.

38:39I love you too.

38:41I've been through it all.

38:44What are you going to do?

38:46I love you.

38:48I love you too.

38:51I've been through it all.

38:54What are you going to do?

38:56I need to ask you for a loan, Frank.

38:57I need to ask you for a loan, Frank.

38:58I'm sorry, Bumpy.

38:59But I can't give you the money.

39:00The feds are watching every move I make.

39:01They're everywhere but up my ass.

39:02I need to ask you for a loan, Frank.

39:06I need to ask you for a loan, Frank.

39:07I need to ask you for a loan, Frank.

39:08I'm sorry, Bumpy.

39:09But I can't give you the money.

39:10The feds are watching every move I make.

39:11They're everywhere but up my ass.

39:13I need to ask you for a loan, Frank.

39:22I need to ask you for a loan, Frank.

39:24I'm sorry, Bumpy.

39:25But I can't give you the money.

39:26The feds are watching every move I make.

39:29They're everywhere but up my ass.

39:32Understood.

39:33Yeah.

39:34You can't say so soon?

39:42Don't try to fuck with my head.

39:46All I got is my rip, Frank.

39:48If I don't pay my betters off by tomorrow,

39:52my rip's gone.

39:54You crossed the line when you broke into a social club.

39:59Mamie, how is it possible

40:01that every time I see you,

40:03you look even more beautiful than the last time?

40:05Thank you, Frank.

40:07It's always nice to have you over.

40:09I'll leave you gentlemen to your match.

40:23I hope shut down that ruckus at Fiddler's store

40:25in return for a chin granting me the right

40:27to get heroin from Italian sources.

40:31But...

40:31it's gay.

40:33He's still threatening

40:34to kill anybody who sells to me.

40:37Yeah, that's Chin's way.

40:39He's threatening Bonanno now.

40:43Bonanno's thinking about moving in the home.

40:44Yeah.

40:45Bonanno's gonna have to pay Chin a tax.

40:48And Bonanno doesn't like it.
