Casino Jack Page #5
That all sounds nice
and philanthropy, Jack-
but you're buddies with the White House.
Hell, you're the reason that idiot
cinched the Republican nomination.
That because we destroyed
McCain in the South.
Bush still owes you.
Why not used that? Aim a little
higher when bringing in clients.
-Such as? -Such as..
Fortune 500-company or two.
You mean rich, white people?
Listen, I've got a situation
in Florida with a client...
a very important client.
With your background in gaming,
might help us still handled it.
-So... Indians?
-No, Greeks.
A guy in Florida named Gus Boulis...
Bankruptcy is just
the tip of the iceberg.
He needs a buyer. Fast.
It's a very lucrative casino op.
Anybody who can afford to
get in on it will get rich.
Anyway Manny said you had some
clients who might be interested
under the circumstances.
Yeah okay, Art. I will look into it.
-Have you done all your things yet?
-Hmm!
Well, come to bed. The
kids are asleep. It's late.
What? What are you thinking?
About us.
Seems like only yesterday
we were kicking out
with the college Republicans.
Remember that time you
brought Pavarotti for Brandeis?
-Nobody thought you could pull it off.
-All them lefty listening to the Clash
-Hey, I like Joe Strummer.
-Hmmm, maybe I should have asked
him to a duet with Pavarotti.
That would have been something.
I still love your dorkiness, hon.
Always thinking out of the box.
"Adrian... nobody ever went
the distance for Creed."
"If they rings the bell, and I'm still standing
-"
"I know I weren't just another
bum from the neighbourhood."
Come to bed.
So this Gus Boulis,
comes down from Canada-
opened up a chain of
sandwich shops in Miami.
Then he cashes out and he
goes into the cruise business,
buy a fleet full of yachts,
so pull the strings and turned
them into floating casinos,
runs out of 9 ports. Tourists,
retirees some high rollers they called
the cruise to nowhere.
But there's this...
Florida attorney general who's
got a hard on for gamblers
looking for a technicality
to nail this guy.
Problem is, Boulis isn't a US citizen-
which turned out to be a violation
of the shipping acts 1916.
And then, this idiot gets sloppy
about how he runs the casinos,
you know, he plays fast
and loose with the best,
around with the cold guards.
-Blackjack, house wins.
-The customers start complained,
pretty soon, Boulis is catching
heavy grief with his gambling license.
The gist of it's, the Feds are forced
him to sell. He got months to diverse
-which gives me a window.
-Gives you a window?
What, are you serious?
No, we're serious.
