The Informant! Page #2

Absolutely.

This would be a great Place

for some outlet stores.

People would come from all over

southern Illinois, probably Missouri.

Famous name-brand labels

and appliances...

...at savings

of up to 50 percent every day.

Maybe a food court

with a Mexican place.

The birds eat the bugs, the cars eat

the birds, the rust eats the cars...

- ...and new construction eats the rust.

Corky!

Alexander says there's a bat

in his room.

The FBI?

God, no.

I thought you wanted me to talk him down

on the price. And I was doing it.

We're not gonna sit back

and let the Japanese f*** us sideways.

I don't understand. We weren't gonna

mention it and now he's in on it?

Of course he's in on it.

If there's a mole, it's a security issue.

I'll be sitting in with the FBI.

I already told you everything there is

to tell.

I mean, what is the point?

Mark. Calm down. All right?

We don't like the idea of talking to the FBI

any more than you do.

They're just gonna tape the guy's calls,

ask you a few questions. No big deal.

Questions?

Jesus.

Mark?

The FBI?

Why do you have to talk to the FBI?

It's their plant.

Just... Just let them talk to the FBI.

Babe, I am really uncomfortable

with this.

There are some things

that are going on here.

What does that mean, "things"?

It just...

It means that we have to be careful.

Well, whatever you do, Corky,

no matter what's going on...

...just be honest with them

and tell them the truth, okay?

He said he wanted the money wired...

...into a numbered account

in Switzerland...

...and then also in the Caribbean.

Uh... And when did you last have contact

with him?

Two days ago.

But I think he's getting suspicious.

I've been dragging this thing along.

I think if we don't make a move...

I mean, he could already

have backed down here.

And these calls, they've been coming in

on your home line?

Well, I have an ADM line at my house.

It's a business line.

They've been coming in

on the business line.

Well, I think we should start with...

...putting a recording device

on your phone.

There's a sale at Bachrach's.

They have those Oscar de la Renta ties

that nobody buys.

What are they,

two for one for another week?

Diagonal bands of color hanging

around your neck.

They never put the nice Brioni ties

on sale.

I should just get all my ties in Paris...

...wear them once or twice

and shove them in a duty-free bag.

Nobody gets stopped at customs

for ties.

I can help with that.

So...

...that's it, then.

I can go?

Listen. Why don't...? Ahem.

I'd like to come out tomorrow,

get on that phone.

Great. No problem.

- Thank you for your time.

- Thank you.

You told the truth, Mark.

That's all you can do.
