SON?
BEEN READING
YOUR OWN PRESS?
THIS THING'S
GONE TO YOUR HEAD.
SURE, I TOOK THAT CASH.
YOU THINK
YOU GOT THOSE VOTES
ON YOUR GOOD LOOKS?
I BOUGHT 'EM AND I PAID
FOR 'EM. AND WHEN
I NEEDED CASH, I GOT IT.
NOW, UH,
YOU REMEMBER YOUR DEBTS.
YOU WANT OUT OF THIS
CUBAN THING, YOU GOTTA
PAY BACK ANOTHER WAY.
AND, UH, BE NICE TO LOLA.
SHE'S ON YOUR SIDE.
WHERE YOU GOING?
HEY. WHERE YOU GOING?
COME BACK HERE!
I'M YOUR FATHER!
GODDAMN IT!
WHY DO YOU THINK
I GOT YOU THIS JOB?
TO REVIEW THE FUCKING FLEET?
THE PRESIDENT BROKE CONTACT WITH
YOUR FATHER ON THIS MATTER...
AND WITH LOLA AS WELL.
HE NEVER SPOKE
TO EITHER ONE AGAIN.
SO TIM TURNED AGAINST PA?
MM. IT HURT YOUR FATHER
A GREAT DEAL,
BOTH PERSONALLY
AND... FINANCIALLY.
THEN IT WAS MAYO
WHO KILLED MY BROTHER AND
YOU'VE KNOWN IT ALL ALONG.
A QUALIFIED NO
ON BOTH COUNTS.
- Z.K. DAWSON.
- THE GUY IN THE TANK?
NO, NO, NO. NOT THAT ASSHOLE.
THE REAL DAWSON WHO HASN'T LEFT
VENEZUELA SINCE 1956.
YOUR OKLAHOMA ADVENTURE
WAS A LITTLE SOMETHING
I COOKED UP.
YOU COOKED UP?
YES. A SCENE. A SKIT.
RATHER HUMOROUS, I THOUGHT,
WITH A POINT.
AND WHAT CAN THE POINT BE,
MR. CERRUTI?
YOU SEE, IT WASN'T
DAWSON HIMSELF WHO PLOTTED
YOUR BROTHER'S ASSASSINATION.
IT WAS HIS ONLY DAUGHTER-
FORMERLY MAGGIE DAWSON,
THEN MRS. LUIGI BELLINI...
AND LATELY-
YVETTE?
THE ATTRACTION BETWEEN YOU TWO
BECOMES ROMEO-AND-JULIETISH, NO?
OPPOSING FAMILIES.
- THAT IS RIDICULOUS!
- DON'T SNAP AT ME, YOU.
SHE PLOTTED THE WHOLE THING.
SHE WAS YOUR BROTHER'S MISTRESS
TOO. BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT.
- WHERE IS SHE NOW?
- YVETTE? I TOLD YOU.
KIDNAPPED.
- BY WHOM?
- BY WHOM? BY THE KIDNAPPERS.
BAD GUYS. CASPER JR.
YOU ARE LYING, CERRUTI.
NO ONE'S ALLOWED UP HERE,
NICK.
TELL ME WHERE SHE IS
OR I'M GONNA BLOW THIS
WHOLE THING OPEN.
NO WAY. YOU'RE NOT
TO BE BELIEVED.
WHAT HAVE YOU GOT?
A HALF A DOZEN
DIFFERENT SCENARIOS ALL GOING
IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS.
FANTASIES. THEY'D LOCK YOU
AWAY IN THE BOOBY BIN.
YOU'RE NO THREAT TO ME.
YOU GIVE ME THIS INFORMATION
OR I'M GONNA GET IT
THE OLD-FASHIONED WAY.
THE OL- OH.
THE OLD-FASHIONED WAY.
I SEE. WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO,
BREAK MY ARMS?
GOD, IT'S PAINFUL
TO SEE YOU LIKE THIS, NICK.
IT'S PAINFUL TO SEE YOU
SUFFERING UNDER A DELUSION
SO INTENSE,
SO AGGRAVATING
THAT YOU ACTUALLY BELIEVE
THAT YOU HAVE THE NERVE...
TO COME IN HERE
AND THREATEN ME LIKE THIS.
YOU'RE JUST NOT THE TYPE.
DID YOU HEAR THAT?
DID YOU HEAR THAT,
YOU CLOWN?
YOU'VE BROKEN MY ARM.
IS IT HIM?
HUH? HUH?
IS IT PA?
IS IT HIM?
PLEASE TELL ME.
IS IT PA?
OW!
IS IT PA, CERRUTI?
YOUR LEGS ARE NEXT.
CERRUTI, IS IT PA?
YOUR FATHER SPENT $11 MILLION
TO RAISE YOUR BROTHER UP...
FROM A SKIRT-CHASING
COLLEGE BOY TO PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES.
FOR 20 YEARS,
HE TOLD HIM WHAT TO DO
AND HOW AND WHY...
AND WHAT WOULD HAPPEN
WHEN IT WAS DONE.
YOUR FATHER PUT TIM
IN THE WHITE HOUSE. WHY?
BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE YOU
CAN GENERATE THE MOST CASH.
A COLD-ASS BUSINESS PROPOSITION
LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE IN SOCIETY.
BUT YOUR BROTHER DECIDED
TO STIR UP THE POPULATION,
BEGAN TO THINK WE WERE
ALL LIVING IN A DEMOCRACY.
HE STARTED BELIEVING IT.
LUNCH WITH DE GAULLE,
DINNER WITH KRUSCHEV.
THE WHOLE RAZZLE-DAZZLE
WENT TO HIS HEAD.
YET IN SPITE OF THE FACT THAT
EVERYBODY IN THIS COUNTRY...
LIVES IN THE SAME
DOG-EAT-DOG WAY,
GRABBING ANY ANGLE
TO MAKE A BUCK,
IF YOU WERE TO INFORM THEM
THAT YOUR FATHER HAD TIM KILLED,
THEY'D WANNA
TEAR THE OLD MAN
APART LIMB FROM LIMB.
PA HAD-
PA HAD HIM KILLED?
WHAT THE HELL?
THAT'S THE SYSTEM
YOU WANTED, NICK,
AND THAT'S THE SYSTEM
YOU'VE GOT.
THE WHOLE SECRET,
AS YOUR FATHER SAYS,
IS NOT TO GET CAUGHT.
I WANT TO FIND YVETTE.
YVETTE MALONE...
WAS A PROFESSIONAL ACTRESS
NAMED JENNY O'BRIEN,
BUT I DON'T THINK SHE WANTS
TO SEE YOU TODAY, NICK.
SHE'S THE GUEST OF A FRESHMAN
ANATOMY CLASS OVER AT KEGAN
UNIVERSITY MEDICAL SCHOOL...
AND SHE'S
KINDA
