why they let you go so fast?

[Quintero] You got it all wrong.

[Muffled] Hey!

What a waste of a good chicken leg.

Heh, heh, heh. Relax.

You're gonna get indigestion.

You're gonna love this. It's gonna

take you all the way back to 1961.

Splish splash I was takin' a bath

All about a Saturday night

- Bum, bum, bum

- Bum, bum, bum

Rub-a-dub

I jumped back in the tub

Bobo delivers the euphoria 10:30

Thursday morning. That's 100 grand.

Your cop friends get that,

Quintero, huh?

Was it loud enough for you, huh?

- [Muffled Yelling]

- [Fountain] What, you can't swim?

Hey, Quintero, I hope

you got your flippers on.

I hope your suit

is drip-dry.

[Splash]

[Clank]

Relax. Probably the pigeons.

I'll take care of it.

- Oh, no.

- I'm comin', boss.

We'll take care of this,

Mr. Fountain.

You really think that's gonna work?

No, boss. I'm stupid.

Just once I would like to conduct

business in a hygienic environment.

- Yes, boss.

- Yes, boss.

[Reporter] Come on, McKenna,

you've gotta give me something.

I haven't got anything. I just

got here, for cryin' out loud.

- Give me a break, will ya?

- Hey, found him for you.

- Quintero?

- So much for the "scum floats" theory.

He was my only lead.

Hey, relax.

Got a witness.

- You got a witness?

- Yes, sir.

- Where is he?

- Well, he's right over here.

Where?

- Nick.

- Yeah?

Over here. He's been askin'

for you all night.

- Hi.

- Hi.

I'm Devon Butler.

You can just call me Devon.

Ready for fingerprinting?

Let me talk to you a minute.

Have you got any idea

what a sharp lawyer...

will do with a little kid

on the witness stand?

He will rip

this little guy to shreds.

He won't know the killer

from Captain Kangaroo.

- What are you trying to do to me?

- Nick, he's all we got.

What's up?

Little boy, if you saw the bad man

again, would you recognize him?

Don't you think a formal

interrogation downtown is in order?

And Captain Kangaroo hasn't

been on the air for nine years.

God hates me. Get his parents,

get him downtown.

[Nick] Who are you?

I'm Devon Butler. I just told

you back there. Short memory.

Ha, ha.

Look at that fat jumbo.

Do you recognize anybody in the book?

You have any pictures

of these guys from the back?

I don't think I like

that question. Why?

That's the way I saw 'em.

Let me explain something

to you, all right?

See, my strong suit is not patience.

So what I want you

to do is look at the

book there and find

someone you recognize.

Otherwise I'm going to

rip your little head off.

Nick.

I got a plate number.

Son, why didn't you

tell us that before?

Anybody ever heard of quid pro quo?

One hand washes the other.

One hand washes the other.
