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 of the gravy?
And how does he feel about
the fellows 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.
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."
And what they did toJoey and what
they did 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.
I brought you Joey's jacket.
Yours is coming apart.
Pigeons.
Yeah. They're nervous.
There was a hawk around here before.
Father, I wanna
speak to you a minute.
Remember what you said about Kayo Dugan
and about keeping your mouth shut?
I'm not hearing your confession.
I'll dig it out for myself...
and use it
where it'll do the most good.
Take your turn.
Father Gregory will hear you.
I don't wanna talk to...
Wait a second.
Wait a minute.
I just wanna talk to you
one second.
You gotta listen to me.
I'm the one who setJoey Doyle up
for the knock-off!
Take a walk with me, kid.
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, I just thought they
was gonna lean on him a little bit.
I never figured
they was gonna knock him off.
I really tried to tell Edie
the other night.
I wanted to tell her she's the first
nice thing that ever happened to me.
What are you gonna do about it?
- You mean about telling her?
- Yes. About the Commission...
your subpoena.
- I know you got a subpoena.
- I don't know.
It's like carrying a monkey
around on your back.
A question of who rides who.
You know if I spill,
my life ain't worth a nickel.
How much is your soul worth
if you don't?
They're asking me
to put the finger on my own brother.
And Johnny Friendly took me
to ball games when I was a kid.
Ball games.
Don't break my heart.
I wouldn't care if he gave you
a life pass to the polo grounds.
You've got a brother.
Let me tell you something.
You've got other brothers
getting the short end...
whileJohnny's
at the polo grounds!
Ball games!
Listen! If I were you,
I'd walk right... Never mind.
I'm not asking anything.
Your conscience has gotta do the asking.
Conscience.
- That stuff can drive you nuts.
- Good luck.
Is that all you gotta 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.
Thanks.
- You?
- Honest to God, l...
You gotta believe me.
I swear to God.
Terry, guess who's here?
That joker from
the Crime Commissioner's office.
If I knew a guy that knocked somebody
off, think I oughta turn him in?
You mean, call a cop?
Are you kidding?
You don't think I oughta
turn him in.
You was a Golden Warrior once.
That's
