Owning Mahowny Page #6

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.

You know...

you know why he wants to win?

- Why?

- So he has the money | to keep losing.

Now how f***ed up is that? Huh!

So you wanna get heavy?

- Nah, let's leave it | the way it is.

He enjoys it, you know. He | enjoys seeing me every Monday.

It's important to him.

Anyway, so there's something | I want you to get...

- You got enough to shut him down?

- Yeah, maybe. But Frank Perlin's | nothing, Jim.

I wanna... I wanna tap | into his whole network.

- You got authorization for a tail yet? | - Yeah.

- So how much more do | you need from me?

- You know how much Bell charges | for this stuff here?

That's 50 bucks a line.

You got this whole sweet | operation going on here.

What do you give me? | Uh, nothing relevant.

Nothing relevant. Oh, look! | Nothing relevant!

I want names, Jim.

Names!

- Hey, girl.

- Hey. Hey, you. You.

- I'll be right back.

Hey guys,

is there a problem here?

- No problem. | You taking a trip?

- Now look, our deal is | I see you on Monday.

- Yeah. With 40.

- You said 20.

- I know, but now, it's gotta be 40.

- Okay, 40. I'll see you Monday.

- Is that your girlfriend? | - You leave her out of this.

- She's pretty.

- You kids take care | of yourselves.

- All right. | - We should go to the gate.

- Who were they?

- Just some friends of mine | from the track.

- I don't think you should be seen | with people like that, Dan.

You work in a bank, they might | damage your prospects.

- Just forget about it.

It's not gonna | spoil our weekend.

- Steve, I got a name here for you. | An associate at Perlin's:

Dan Mahowny. | Have that checked out for me?

- Yeah, I will.

- Mmm! Honey-dipped.

- Honey-glazed.

- You like it?

- Oh, I love it! | It's stunning.

But how much is it gonna cost?

- A friend of mine | comes here a lot.

- Yeah?

- Swung me a deal. | - Oh...!

- I want this to be | a special time.

- Okay. Me too.

Just...

- Can you believe that?

- Yeah.

- It's very pornographic.

- Dan!

- Honey?

- Yeah.

- I'm gonna go for a walk, | take a look around.

- Oh... Okay.

- I got nothing against | Atlantic City, Dan.

Victor Foss runs a hell | of an organization for us.

But hey, Vegas is Vegas. Vegas | is where you come to play.

I guess so.

- Anything you need right now? | - I wanna be low-key.

No fuss, no one | following me around.

- He's at our casino in Vegas,

in the region of 500,000.

Cash.

- F***.

F*** Nevada.

F***ing headhunters!

- So what the hell did you do | to Mahowny?

- I... I didn't do nothin'.

- Oh, you didn't do nothin'?

- How come he's in Vegas | and not here?

- I... I don't... I don't know.

- You're fired, you piece of sh*t.

- Wh...?

- Good feel.

All coming to four.
