two. You mean to sit there and tell me that your local takes in... ...$65,500 every year... ...and keeps no financial records? Sure. We got records. Where are they? We was robbed last night, and we can't find no books. -You know you're under oath? -Sure. Isn't it odd to you that five different waterfront locals... ...were broken into last night? And the only item missing from all of them was the financial records? What do you mean, odd? Like I told you, we was robbed. That's all for now. Call the next witness. Before you call the next witness... ...are all the officers of Local 374 present this morning? Will the following please rise as their names are called? Mr. Michael J. Skelly, also known as Johnny Friendly, President. Mr. Lewis O. Janotta, Vice President. Mr. Daniel D. Coogan, Financial Secretary. Mr. Mladen Sokolivitch, Delegate. Mr. Tillio A. Rodelli, Delegate. Recording Secretary. Thank you, gentlemen. -Next witness. -Mr. Malloy. Raise your right hand. -Name, please. -Terry Malloy. Swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and only the truth? -Right. -I do. -I do. -Be seated, please. Mr. Malloy... ...is it true that the night Joey Doyle was found dead... ...you were the last one to see him before he was pushed from the roof? Yes. Is it true you went immediately- Wait! Except for the guys that pushed him off. Is it true you went immediately to the Friendly bar... ...and expressed your feelings about the murder to Mr. Johnny Friendly? John Friendly, right. "Mr. Malloy..." "...can you tell me whether Mr. Friendly, or I should say, Mr. Skelly..." "...said anything to you to indicate his responsibility in getting rid of Joey Doyle?" "Right." "Would you say that Mr. Friendly made it clear to you..." "...it was absolutely necessary he murder Joey Doyle in order..." "...to maintain his control..." "...on the docks of the waterfront locals! Is that correct?" Will there be anything else? Yes, Sidney, if Mr. Friendly calls, I'm out. -Anytime today? -If he calls ever, I'm out! Very well. Thank you, Mr. Malloy. You've done more than break the Joey Doyle case. We've begun to make it possible for honest men to work the docks... ...with job security and peace of mind. You may step down. That's all for now. Mr. Michael J. Skelly, please. You just dug your own grave. Go fall in it. You're dead on this waterfront and every waterfront... ...from Boston to New Orleans. You don't drive a truck or a cab... ...you don't push a baggage rack you don't work no place, you're dead! Will you quit following me? Why don't you get off my tail? Orders. You're hot. You ought to be glad we're following you. You're making me feel like a canary. -Well... -Lay off. Hi, Cheeky. Who's your friend? I made some hot coffee. I thought you might want some. Anyway, it's all over. My friends don't want to talk to me. Are you sure they're your friends? I'll see you later. Hey, champ, how's the kid. What's with him? A pigeon for a pigeon! Terry. The kid. Tommy? What did he have to do that for? Every one of them. Terry, there's no place that's safe for you now on the waterfront. Maybe inland... ...out west some place... ...a farm. A farm? You could do anything, as long as you're away from Johnny Friendly. You tried to help the longshoremen... ...and they just turn their backs and stick to their stupid D and D! Are they taking chances for you? Why should you? You're not even listening to me, are you? You're going down there. Just because Johnny Friendly warned you not to, you're going down there. You think you got to prove that you're not afraid of them! Well, go ahead, get it over with. Go down and get yourself killed you stupid, pigheaded... What are you trying to prove? They always said I was a bum. Well, I ain't a bum, Edie. Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt nobody. I'm just going to go down there... ...and get my rights.
