Yoshida-san. I'm embarrassed
by this crude interruption.
1:01:08
You must play your stroke again.
1:01:10
No penalty.
1:01:17
- Ken Shubik.
- Hey, Ken! Web Smith.
1:01:19
- Did you get my message?
- Yeah, about the Weasel.
1:01:22
Last night, I'm working late at the paper...
1:01:25
I see the Weasel arrive, dressed in his tux.
1:01:27
He goes right to the library.
1:01:29
I could tell the ambitious turd
had the scent of blood.
1:01:32
He's still here.
1:01:34
I ask the librarian what he's checking out.
1:01:37
She says, "A cop named Web Smith."
1:01:40
- What?
- Yep. The guy's a scumbag for hire.
1:01:44
He used to do jobs
for the studios and realtors.
1:01:48
The little turd just got
a new Mercedes 500SL.
1:01:52
Pretty good on a reporter's salary.
1:01:55
Wonder who he's working for now?
1:01:58
You get on the wrong side
of somebody last night?
1:02:01
- Maybe.
- Somebody's got the Weasel tracking you.
1:02:04
Something about a charge brought against you.
1:02:06
- A charge brought against me?
- You and a Lieutenant Tom Graham.
1:02:11
At the hearing I was cleared. It was bullshit!
1:02:13
Maybe so, but l thought you'd better know.
1:02:15
Smells like something heavy coming down.
1:02:21
What happened to the disk? We left it
with you when we went to get Eddie.
1:02:25
And you got Eddie.
Oh, yes. It was all over the paper.
1:02:29
There was no mention of the murdered girl
on the boardroom table, right?
1:02:33
You had the disk.
It is against the rules to take evidence.
1:02:36
The rules?
1:02:38
Whose rules?
1:02:40
The rules!
1:02:42
The chief says we fucked up...
1:02:44
The Japanese have a saying.
"Fix the problem, not the blame."
1:02:48
Find out what's fucked up and fix it.
1:02:50
Nobody gets blamed.
We're always after who fucked up.
1:02:55
Their way's better.
