New York City.
:00:52
So many things have been
said about it...
:00:54
... but there's only one
I really like.
:00:57
"New York.
:00:58
It can destroy you or fulfill you,
depending a good deal on luck. "
:01:03
No one should come here
unless he's willing to be lucky.
:01:06
And I got lucky.
:01:09
I had an apartment downtown,
but home was City Hall.
:01:12
That's where it all began.
:01:14
The day started out like other days,
with a ceremonial function.
:01:18
The mayor was giving the key to
the city to the governor of Tokyo.
:01:22
- He liked soup for breakfast.
Fish soup.
:01:25
My dad offered to put it on the menu.
:01:28
But, "No, no,"
Mr. Hayatama said...
:01:30
...who was a very gentle soul.
:01:32
"No, it would be
too much trouble. "
:01:34
My dad replied, "Too much trouble
is no customers. "
:01:37
The mayor, and he was the best mayor
the city ever had, was my boss.
:01:42
I was his deputy mayor...
:01:43
... his right-hand man...
:01:45
... or his boy...
:01:46
... depending on who was
talking about me.
:01:49
But in Brooklyn...
:01:50
... something else was going on
that would change everything.
:01:56
It started with a cop...
:01:58
... Eddie Santos, the toughest detective
in Brooklyn North.
