Owning Mahowny Page #4

Synopsis: Dan Mahowny was a rising star at the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce. At twenty-four he was assistant manager of a major branch in the heart of Toronto's financial district. To his colleagues he was a workaholic. To his customers, he was astute, decisive and helpful. To his friends, he was a quiet, but humorous man who enjoyed watching sports on television. To his girlfriend, he was shy but engaging. None of them knew the other side of Dan Mahowny--the side that executed the largest single-handed bank fraud in Canadian history, grossing over $10 million in eighteen months to feed his gambling obsession.

I won't let you down. | I won't let you down. Thank you.

- Hey.

- Hey.

You okay?

- Where's the washroom?

- Uh, there, there and there.

- Okay.

- So where's Danny boy?

- He's busy.

- What, he doesn't eat lunch?

- Work always comes | first with Dan.

Except when he's | at the track.

He doesn't go that often.

- Belinda, you told | me yourself!

You've got no idea | how hard he works.

Anyone who works | as hard as he does

has a right to do what he wants | with his disposable income.

- You got that bank draft | for me, Teri?

- Bank draft?

- From the Selkirk loan account. | - Selkirk...

Um, there is so much activity

on that account, I can't keep up. | - I know the feeling.

- Oh, yeah, here we are.

I'm acting for investors | looking for short-term security.

- You've come to the right place.

- I was thinking of bearer bonds?

- That's not a bad idea. | Bonds are secure.

Great way of moving money | around fast.

Okay, so would you like me

to open up an account | for you right now?

- Yeah, uh, 200,000 in the name | of Roger Oskaner.

- Okay.

Hey,

you see those Bluejays | on Monday night?

- Seven to five? | - Those guys are hot.

- Oh boy, here comes trouble. | - Big trouble.

- Let me guess, Selkirk? | - Nope, Oskaner.

- Oh, Oskaner.

- He wants to sell bonds | at market rate.

- Mahowny.

- Banker!

- Yeah, uh... where... | where have you been?

I called four times already.

- So you wanna hear the lines?

- Hold on.

- Hey, banker, you there? | What the f***?!

- Uh... I can't do this now.

- You're not playing today?

- Give me all the home teams | in the National,

and all the away teams | in the American.

- You're kidding?

- Uh, every game | for the $1,000 max.

- You're the man.

- The Selkirk account seems to be | moving at incredible speed.

Perhaps we should find out | what their schedule is,

and advise regional office.

- Uh, you know,

a higher line of credit

would be a lot simpler.

- Okay, good idea.

Keep her sweet, Dan.

- Right.

- You've opened a loan account | for Pembro Trading?

- Finally, yes.

- I thought they'd run into | partnership problems.

- I guess things are rolling.

Uh, the documentation was all in | place; you approved it yourself.

- Okay.

And... Jake Arnold.

- Jake Arnold, same thing.

- How long ago did we | authorize credit?

- Two years.

- And he's never borrowed | against it until now?

- No, but he could have.

- It's strange; you know, I think | he set the whole thing up

just so he could | tell his friends

he had a million-dollar | credit line.

- Maybe business got bad.

Maybe he won't be handing out | jars of peanuts this Christmas.

- He really does that? | - Sure.
