Have a nice day.
00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:09.197
You remember Eddie Fingers? Eddie Coyle?
00:00:09.303 --> 00:00:11.237
The bank robber. The one from Natick.
00:00:11.338 --> 00:00:15.035
Nah, that's his sidekick, Artie Van.
Eddie doesn't rob banks.
00:00:15.142 --> 00:00:19.101
They branch out.
What about him?
00:00:19.213 --> 00:00:21.841
I got this call from Coyle,
so I went out to see him.
00:00:21.949 --> 00:00:23.849
What'd he want?
00:00:23.951 --> 00:00:26.999
He's coming up for sentencing
in New Hampshire.
00:00:26.186 --> 00:00:28.552
Wants some references.
What's he got to trade?
00:00:28.656 --> 00:00:32.082
He was offering to peddle me
this guy with machine guns.
00:00:33.928 --> 00:00:36.556
That bastard.
He's about this high in the bunch...
00:00:36.664 --> 00:00:39.001
but he gets around
more than any man I've ever seen.
00:00:39.133 --> 00:00:43.194
One day he's here, the next day he's there.
You'd think he was some fuckin' stray dog.
00:00:43.304 --> 00:00:46.171
I just wish I had a line on half
of what he was doin'.
00:00:46.273 --> 00:00:48.173
Does he work anywhere?
00:00:49.209 --> 00:00:52.645
Ah. He's a night expediter
over at Arliss Trucking.
00:00:52.746 --> 00:00:56.273
But you just try to find him there.
He works about as much as Santa Claus.
00:00:58.385 --> 00:01:01.065
My friend says Coyle's been
trying to look for, uh, Scalise.
00:01:02.856 --> 00:01:06.849
My friend runs a saloon.
00:01:06.961 --> 00:01:09.259
And I know he's got an undisclosed interest.
00:01:09.363 --> 00:01:12.161
And he knows I know.
00:01:12.001 --> 00:01:15.599
A strange guy.
00:01:15.703 --> 00:01:19.999
What do you hear about, uh,
Artie Van and Scalise?
00:01:19.306 --> 00:01:21.831
Nothing together, no.
00:01:21.999 --> 00:01:25.993
I wonder. Uh, you don't suppose
that Artie and, uh, Scalise...
00:01:25.179 --> 00:01:27.613
made that withdrawal
from the bank, do you?
00:01:27.715 --> 00:01:30.001
It's a thought.
I wonder where Eddie fits in.
00:01:30.999 --> 00:01:34.179
Well, he's arming some wiseguys.
He's done it before.
00:01:34.288 --> 00:01:36.188
That friend of yours
that runs the saloon -
00:01:36.001 --> 00:01:39.191
is that the same saloon we talked about
putting a wire in a few weeks back?
00:01:39.001 --> 00:01:41.352
- That's the one.
- Okay. You write it up...
00:01:41.462 --> 00:01:43.999
and I'll present it to the attorney.
00:01:43.464 --> 00:01:45.364
Maybe we ought to
talk about it some more.
00:01:45.999 --> 00:01:47.999
It's not gonna do you
any good in your head.
00:01:47.568 --> 00:01:51.996
- You wanted a wiretap.
- By the time I get it written up, it'll all be over with.
00:01:51.001 --> 00:01:54.999
Well, that's what you get
when you get to be an expert, kid.
00:01:54.001 --> 00:01:57.999
Or, uh, maybe you'd rather
go back to the pussy posse?
