The Crooked Way Page #2

That was William's gag to get

him out of the way.

I wouldn't know. Bail's $1000.

-Inflation!

That's the whole trouble these days.

Alexander, he unhappy?

Nick. Keep your mind on your business.

Let Vince worry about his, huh?

Sure, beautiful Sure.

Forget I mentioned it.

Take my advice, you leave town.

I've got things to do.

Adios, boy! You're on your own.

Kelly never showed.

Odd.

We'll hear from him.

One of the usual fronts?

You have a lot of Jane Does, Nick.

Use one of them.

Of course, there's a big difference

between the Florida oranges

and the California oranges.

At least that's what the Chamber

of Commerce in Florida says.

And the Chamber of Commerce

in California says...

Orange juice, please.

-Yes, ma'am.

Eddie.

I thought it was you from

across the street.

Hello.

Is that the only thing

you've got to say?

Well, there's a lot more

I could say, but...

but you...

Let's see...

Nacy Morgan?

Nora Murphy?

No, you don't look like Nora Murphy.

-What'd you come back for, Eddie?

A man has a right to come

home, hasn't he?

My car is across the street,

I'll take you there.

Sure!

Thanks.

Vince know you're back?

Vince?

Should he?

You oughta know.

Thanks for the lift.

Coming in?

Who said this was the end of the road?

Who's complaining? Not me.

Checking in?

Long?

I don't know yet.

Alone?

Yes.

Edward Rice...San Francisco.

I'll throw the stuff in the room and

be right back. -If you say so.

Hello? hello, this is Nina.

I want to talk to Vince.

He's busy.

Not too busy for what

I've got to tell him.

He's not here.

Look, let's not keep where he is a

secret it might upset your whole future.

Put me through to him!

You talk too much.

Another treatment, Kelly?

Any...

Any second...breaks, Vince?

I'm easy to do business with.

If you talk...

you live.

All i want to hear is your

angle with Joe Williams.

Give him a cigarette, Danny.

It'll relax him.

I'm...trusting you, Vince.

Sure. Sure, Kelly.

I told you we'd turn you loose.

You understand how I...

How a guy feels when he's been

kicked out of the organization?

I know...

I shouldn't of been a sucker and

told Williams about the...

...about the silver dollar.

-Forget that.

What did you tell him about this?

-Nothing!

Nothing much, really.

Vince!

-What did you tell him, Kelly?

Really, Vince...

Nothing important.

Just...

a little of this and...

that about the...

about the slot machines and...

and the take. But, I...

I phonied the figures.

Honest I did.

-These figures aren't phoney.

Where'd you get 'em?

Snatched them out of your safe, Vince.

Williams is waiting for 'em.

He was going to bundle me out of town,

bring me back for the trial.
