2:25:01
But he is too honorable a man
to have done that.

2:25:04
Because of me, he has lost his work,
his company, his reputation.

2:25:09
So now,
given these losses,

2:25:13
l'm compelled to end
the need for secrecy.

2:25:19
The time has come
to tell you who l am.

2:25:27
So tell me. Tell me.
l'm peeing in my pants.

2:25:30
- And you're going to pee some more.
- Joe, don't do this.

2:25:33
lt's okay, Bill. lt's time
we put this person in his place.

2:25:35
lt's not necessary, Joe.
Drew's gonna step aside.

2:25:38
- l'm not stepping anywhere.
- l appreciate your gentlemanliness.

2:25:41
But what we need to do here
is drive the dagger home.

2:25:43
- ''The dagger''?
- l told you to shut up!

2:25:45
Prepare yourself, Drew.
2:25:48
- l--
- Joe, please.

2:25:50
Kindly let me take it from here.
2:25:52
- Am--
- Don't.

2:25:58
An agent for the
lnternal Revenue Service.

2:26:09
- Bill?
- Huh?

2:26:10
Bill.
2:26:15
- Bill.
- Yeah.

2:26:17
Yes, he's, um--
2:26:20
He's an agent for
the lnternal Revenue Service.

2:26:23
Mmm, yes, we were convinced
that Bontecou, on past deals,

2:26:26
has structured his mergers
and acquisitions...

2:26:28
in suspicious and complicated ways
so as to evade paying the taxes
he is liable for.

2:26:32
The agency asked Bill for
his cooperation in an undercover
investigation of Bontecou.

2:26:37
We wanted to go after him, and this deal
gave us that perfect opportunity.

2:26:43
- And l offered to cooperate.
- And we're very grateful.

2:26:47
Uh, Agent Joe Black here--
Of course, that's not his real name--

2:26:52
smelled out your involvement, Drew.
2:26:54
He developed evidence you were
working both sides of the fence.

2:26:58
Unfortunately, that is what is known
as a conflict of interest.
