1:27:02
allegedly written
by Leo Pedranski...

1:27:04
who was killed the day before yesterday
by you, for all I know.

1:27:07
What do you want from me?
I'd like to get back to my guests.

1:27:11
Unsigned accusation
was typed on carbon paper.

1:27:16
Who uses that anymore?
1:27:18
The late Leo Pedranski's
fingerprints were all over it.

1:27:23
The Pomerello's
a little corky.

1:27:26
I'm sure the Senate Oversight
Committee won't have any problem
connecting you to the murder.

1:27:30
But you haven't given the carbon
to the Senate Oversight Committee.

1:27:35
If you had, you wouldn't
be here right now.

1:27:38
You've got your precious
carbon tucked away...

1:27:41
guaranteeing your safety,
etcetera, etcetera...

1:27:43
so you can come here
and demand what?

1:27:45
Untold millions
in unmarked bills?

1:27:48
I asked you
not to handle the wine, please.

1:27:51
You know, it's good to see you got
your priorities in order.

1:27:57
That's better.
1:27:59
You're not worried about
murdering a nine-year-old boy...

1:28:02
but you're worried about
this fucking wine?

1:28:04
Here's the deal.
1:28:08
I don't give the Senate
Oversight Committee the carbon.

1:28:11
They don't waste three years with their
investigation, wailing and moaning...

1:28:14
"How could this happen
in America?"...

1:28:17
while you have one of
your spooks whack Simon Lynch.

1:28:19
Or?
1:28:22
Or you do the only thing that'll
guarantee Simon Lynch his safety.

1:28:25
You or one of your superiors or
the president of the United States...

1:28:29
I don't give a fuck who...
1:28:31
but someone is gonna go on
national television and tell America...

1:28:34
that your billion dollar,
uncrackable code...

1:28:37
has been cracked by
a nine-year-old autistic boy.

1:28:39
Then you get
your carbon back.

1:28:46
You know what I think,
Mr. Jeffries?

1:28:50
I think you've seen too many of those
four-wheel drive commercials on TV.

1:28:56
The ones where you get to drive fast
and be a renegade.

1:28:59
Let's talk about
the real world...
