- Yeah?
Well, what happened to Vargas?
Nothing.
- Oh no? - Al!
It had nothing to do with the bombing.
It doesn't matter. He missed.
- Who was it, Al?
I don't know. He got away.
- It was one of the Grandi kids.
What makes you so sure of that?
- Intuition.
Intuition? - Vargas and his
Keystone Cops have been giving
the Grandi family
quite a tough time lately.
Does your intuition
also tell you about my wife?
She was accosted and led to some dive
on your side of the border.
gettin' into a lot of trouble tonight.
Can you describe this man?
- The first one...
...was young, good-looking...
- So there were two men?
Not exactly.
You say she was taken by force?
Not by force, no.
One of the Grandis was there waiting.
Short, fat, with a moustache...
- Uncle Joe. - What?
They call him Uncle Joe Grandi.
- That's right.
Go on.
I've told you what happened.
Aren't you gonna do something?
You have to make a charge.
Isn't that procedure in Mexico?
You say your wife was attacked.
- I didn't say that.
Molested? - Not physically, no.
I don't think so. - So your wife
allowed herself to be picked up...
She was not picked up.
- I think we're on the wrong tack.
Then this young man was her friend?
- Obviously not!
You wouldn't call that getting
picked up? - Now we mustn't forget
that Mr Vargas
is not on the witness stand.
Hank's a born lawyer, you know.
- No, lawyers only care about the law.
Captain, you are a policeman?
Aren't you?
You don't seem very fond of the job.
Plenty of soldiers don't like war.
It's a dirty job, enforcing the law.
But it's what we're supposed to do.
When a murderer's loose,
Well, Pete,
let's get back to civilization.
Let's go, Hank. It's almost dawn.
You gotta get some rest.
No chance of that, partner.
We got a big day ahead of us.
See any better this way?
You can turn it off now, buster,
you're wasting your batteries.
What are you doing in the dark?
There's no shade on the window.
Can we turn the light on now?
No, we can't.
- Why not?
'Cause there's no bulb any more.
Risto! Risto!
Uncle Joe is plenty mad.
He wants to talk to you!
Risto! Risto, come back here!
Stop him!
Stop him, Sam!
Who told you to throw acid at Vargas?
Stop him!
Who told you to throw acid at Vargas?
Who's the boss of this family?
Who's the boss?
My old man.
- Sure, but he's in the pen!
Until he gets out,
who's running this outfit?
Who's in charge?
- Alright, you.
What a setup to work with!
One brother in jail, two others dead.
Nobody left to do business with
but a bunch of nephews!
