And loaded to the gunnels
with fine Irish whiskey.
- Kayo, the good Lord takes care of us.
- That he does.
Come on out, Kayo. Get it up.
- All right, take it up.
- Take it up.
Take it away.
And don't go walking off
with any of that.
You know how the boss feels
about individual pilferage.
All right, all right.
Now you see the advantage
of a little man in a big coat.
- Kayo, let me see you afterward.
- What are you down here for?
To see that we don't steal any
of Mr. Friendly's precious cargo?
- I want to talk...
- Get away from me, will you?
- All right, take it up.
- Take it up.
Take it away.
Okay.
Kayo, you're a walking distillery.
Watch it!
Get a doctor!
He don't need a doctor.
He needs a priest.
I came down here to keep a promise.
I gave Kayo my word that
if he stood up to the Mob...
...I'd stand up with him,
all the way.
And now Kayo Dugan is dead.
He was one of those fellas
who had the gift for standing up.
But this time they fixed him.
Oh, they fixed him for good this time.
Unless it was an accident,
like Big Mac says.
Some people think the crucifixion
only took place on Calvary.
They better wise up.
Taking Joey Doyle's life to stop him
from testifying is a crucifixion.
And dropping a sling
on Kayo Dugan...
...because he was ready
to spill his guts tomorrow...
...that's a crucifixion!
And every time the Mob puts
the pressure on a good man...
...tries to stop him from doing his duty
as a citizen, it's a crucifixion!
And anybody who sits around
and lets it happen...
...keeps silent about something
he knows has happened...
...shares the guilt of it
as much as the Roman soldier...
...who pierced the flesh of our Lord
to see if he was dead.
- Go back to your church, Father!
- Boys, this is my church!
If you don't think Christ is here
on the waterfront...
...you've another guess coming!
Get off the dock, Father!
Tillio, don't do that.
- Whose side you on, boy?
- Let him finish.
Every morning...
...when the hiring boss blows
his whistle...
...Jesus stands alongside you
in the shape-up.
He sees why some of you get picked
and some of you get passed over.
He sees the family men worrying
about getting their rent...
...and getting food in the house
for the wife and the kids.
He sees you selling your souls
to the Mob for a day's pay!
The next bum that throws something
deals with me!
I don't care if he's twice my size!
What does Christ think
of the easy-money boys...
...who do none of the work
and take all the gravy?
How does he feel about the fellas who
wear $150 suits and diamond rings...
...on your union dues
and your kickback money?
And how does he...
...who spoke up without fear
against every evil...
...feel about your silence?
Shut up about that!
Just watch this.
Did you see that?
You want to know what's wrong
with our waterfront?
The love of a lousy buck.
It's making love of a buck,
the cushy job...
...more important
than the love of man!
It's forgetting that every fella
down here is your brother in Christ!
But remember,
Christ is always with you.
Christ is in the shape-up,
he's in the hatch...
...he's kneeling right here
beside Dugan.
And he's staying with all of you.
If you do it to the least of mine,
you do it to me.
What they did to Joey and to Dugan,
they're doing to you.
And you, you.
All of you!
And only you...
Only you, with God's help, have
the power to knock them out for good.
Okay, Kayo?
Amen.
All right, come on. Let's go.
Break it up. Let's go to work.
Edie, Joey's jacket.
I'm sure Kayo would wish you
to have it back.
Terry?
Terry?
I brought you Joey's jacket.
Yours is coming apart.
Pigeons.
Yeah. They're nervous.
There was a hawk
around here before.
Edie.
Hey, Father, I wanna speak to you
a minute.
Remember what you said...
...about Kayo Dugan and
about keeping your mouth shut?
I don't wanna hear your confession.
I'll dig it out myself...
...and use it where it'll
