I've known him for years.

Not even his wife.

Wife have something to do

with his grudge?

Yeah.

Figures.

You know, that mess you got us into

last year cost us $150,000.

That's what Walker's here for, isn't it?

The money you paid us back.

Only $93,000 belonged to him.

Only $93,000?

What's the story?

A job, Mr. Carter.

You remember the Alcatraz run?

The one I brought into the Organization.

Walker was one of the men you held up?

No, he was with me.

You took his share, too, is that it?

I needed all of it to pay you back.

You left with Walker's share and his wife.

- She still with you?

- He killed her.

You shouldn't have left him alive.

Does he know where you are?

No, but he's looking.

Fine. I'll tell you what we'll do.

We'll let him know where you are.

He'll come for you, won't he?

They're waiting.

It's a setup.

They're spreading the word now.

They want you to try and get him.

Where is he?

The Huntley.

A place run by the Organization.

- Where would he be?

- All the way up. The penthouse.

He always uses it.

What's it like?

Fort Knox.

You've been there?

Once. To see Lynne.

- What's that? An apartment house?

- Yeah.

Residential.

That goes up to the top?

There's another elevator inside the lobby.

It goes up to the other penthouse.

They got two?

- What's the roof like?

- Flat, open.

Look at it. Men everywhere.

You're going to have a lot of trouble

getting in...

but you'll never get out.

- He has to come out sometime.

- Yeah.

How bad does he want you, Chris?

I don't know.

- Who knows?

- Yeah, you know. How bad?

Pretty bad, I guess.

Bad enough to let you through,

into the Huntley?

Why should I?

It's up to you.

- Mr. Reese, please.

- Right over there.

This way to Heaven.

We have a saying in Brazil.

He says to go on up.

It says...

Which means, ''God is Brazilian.''

So you see,

we have no worry in the world.

- Of course, you have to worry some.

- Why?

That's the way of life.

Hello, Mal.

Go on in, honey.

Are these all right?

Yeah, that'll do fine.

Now, tie yourselves up.

No, not individually, together.

Well, Cinderella...

I was beginning to think

you'd never come for you shoe.

Here I am.

What made you change your mind?

It's a woman's privilege.

All good things come to those who wait.

Then, I win first prize.

Scotch?

Scotch is fine.

Do you know how long

I've been hung up on you?

The first time I saw you with Lynne.

I've some business to settle here first.

Then we'll go to New York.

- You take empty bags.

- Sure, Mal.

Operator? Give me the police.

This is an emergency.

Wait till they answer.

Sir, help me, please. I'm being attacked.

Ferguson, yes. 2291, Western.
