Mr. Majestyk Page #5

Baby, you want a cigarette?

- Yeah.

- Here.

Lieutenant McAllen.

Well, Majestyk!

- I had him.

- Did you?

I suppose you want to hear what happened.

I think I can guess.

- Take him away, Mark.

- You don't want to hear?

Hey!

Frank, you like it?

Sure is nice to have friends.

- It's great.

- You like it?

Yeah.

The place has got air conditioning.

You got plenty of vodka, scotch...

steaks in the icebox, here.

And $2,500 for cigarette money.

Frank, there's a really funny shower.

It's over the toilet.

Tomorrow night you'll be in Mazatln.

Your house is all set. It's on the beach.

Everything's all ready.

- A regular vacation.

- Yep.

You having a good time?

I could use a rest.

That stunt hitting that bus...

took a couple of years off me, man.

- Where is he?

- Got a couple of beers?

- Where is he?

- Want a beer?

- Where is he?

- He turned himself in.

They're holding him in Edna, last I heard.

- A tight fit, but all the comforts of home.

- We're not home, my love.

- He is.

- Frank.

He's in jail. You're free.

We can go anywhere you want.

There's only one thing I want.

So he gets out of jail, you have him killed.

Same difference. Dude's dead.

I said I want him, you understand?

I want to look him in the face...

hold a piece against his gut...

and when I know that he's sure...

I'm gonna kill him.

Can I ask you a question?

Are you going to walk in

and ask the cops for a visitor's pass?

How will you get close to the dude?

You find that sucker he hit.

Tell him to drop the complaint,

it was all a mistake.

- Suppose he doesn't want to do that?

- I said tell him, not ask him!

Then we get a couple of our people.

You find him, you call me...

I come up...

I'll have a talk with him, and it's done.

Frank, there's a dozen guys who'd do it,

guys who the cops aren't waiting to bust.

I said I want him!

Me!

Hey, I never killed anybody

for free before, see?

But this one,

I'm doing as a special favor to myself!

And that's before I go to Mazatln,

or lie on any beach.

Am I getting through to you?

- You got anything more on Majestyk?

- No, not much.

High school education,

truck driver, farm laborer.

He was in the army three years.

A Ranger instructor at Fort Benning.

Was captured in Vietnam...

escaped with four enemy prisoners.

Got a Silver Star.

Man doesn't fool, does he?

I don't know. Let's find out.

Okay, Ben.

Have a seat.

I've been sitting for four days.

I guess another day won't matter.

When do I go to trial?

The guy you hit, Bobby Kopas...

dropped the charges.

Well...

- Why'd he do that?

- Said he thought it over.

Wasn't important enough

to waste a lot of time in court.
