to Joey and to Dugan...
...they're doing to you and 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, here's Joey's jacket. I'm sure Kayo
would wish you to have it back.
I brought you Joey's jacket.
Yours is coming apart.
Pigeons.
They're nervous.
There was a hawk around here before.
Father, I want to speak to you a minute.
Remember what you said about...
...Kayo Dugan and keeping
your mouth shut when you know the score.
I don't want to hear your confession.
I'll dig it out for myself
and use it where it'll do the most good.
- Father Gregory will hear you.
- I don't want to talk...
Wait a second, wait a minute.
I just want to talk to you one second.
You've got to listen to me.
I'm the one that set Joey Doyle up
for the knock off.
Come on, take a walk with me, kid,
and give it to me straight.
There's nothing I haven't heard. Come on.
It started out as a favor.
Favor, who am I kidding?
It's "do it or else."
Believe me when I tell you
I just thought they were...
...going to lean on him a bit.
I never thought he'd get knocked off.
I tried to tell Edie the other night.
I really tried to, I wanted to tell her.
She's the first nice thing
that's ever happened to me.
What are you going to do about it?
What do you mean? About telling her?
Yes, about telling her.
The commission. Your subpoena.
I know you got a subpoena.
I don't know.
It's like carrying a monkey
around on your back.
It's a question of "who rides who."
If I spill, my life ain't worth a nickel.
And how much is your soul worth
if you don't?
They're asking me to put the finger
on my own brother.
Johnny Friendly used to take me
to ball games when I was a kid.
Don't break my heart.
I wouldn't care if he gave you
a life pass to the polo grounds.
So you've got a brother.
Let me tell you something...
...you've got other brothers
getting the short hand...
...while Johnny is getting mustard
on his face at the polo grounds.
Ball games.
Listen, if I were you, I would walk right...
Never mind.
I'm not asking you to do anything,
your own conscience has to do the asking.
Conscience.
- That stuff can drive you nuts.
- Good luck.
Is that all you've got to say?
Come here.
Edie called me this morning.
She's coming here to talk to me.
Come on, why don't you tell her?
No curves.
Okay.
Thanks.
- You?
- Honest to God, Edie...
Believe me, I swear to God, Edie...
Terry, guess who's here?
That joker
from the crime commissioner's office.
Suppose I knew a guy
that knocked somebody off...
...you think I ought to turn him in?
You mean call a cop? Are you kidding?
You don't think I ought to turn him in?
You was a Golden Warrior once.
That's right.
You started the gang.
You looking for me?
No, not exactly.
I was just resting my dogs a minute.
On the next investigation we get, I hope
it's got buildings with elevators in them.
So far this one's just been climbing stairs.
What do you climb them for?
It's worth it if we can tell
the waterfront story...
...the way the people
have a right to hear it.
Don't you think?
Didn't I see you in the Garden
three or four years ago...
...with a fellow named Wilson?
I thought you were going
to take him that night.
Man, he really dumped you.
He dumped me?
What would you say if I told you
I held that bum up for half a round?
I could see he was hurt.
What did you think I was doing
with them combinations, petting him?
You just couldn't finish him off?
Don't monkey around there.
Why didn't you finish him off?
- I was doing a favor for some pals.
- Favor?
That's the way it was.
That's the way it was.
If I'd have put him down,
I'd have had a title shot.
I was ready that night.
You sure looked it.
That's when I figured it was all over.
It was all over, except for the lousy bet!
- My own.
- Yeah.
I guess I'
