Snake Eyes Page #4

Synopsis: Ricky Santoro is a flamboyant and corrupt Atlantic City cop with a dream: become so well connected that he can become mayor. In lieu of that, he'll settle for keeping his comfortable lifestyle. On the night of the heavyweight boxing championship, Rick becomes mixed up in the assassination of the Secretary of Defense, an assassination involving his best friend. Becoming the investigating officer in the case, Rick soon uncovers a conspiracy to kill the Secretary and a mysterious woman in white. The conspiracy was shocking, but not half as shocking as the identity of its mastermind.

arrange some interviews...

...get you a G.S. Rating,

you're in our programme.

Bureau of Diplomatic Security pays double what

your salary is here, and the money's clean.

All right, all right. You gotta fix

my life later. I got money on this.

I wanna stay in a good mood. You know,

keep positive. Because this is fight night!

Don't make Michael

grow up here.

This isn't a beach town

any more. It's a sewer.

But it's my sewer, Jiminy,

and I love it.

I kick around about six square blocks.

Everybody knows me.

I got the whole town wired. Someday if I

manage to get my face on TV a few times...

...maybe I'll run for mayor or something,

but that's as far as I want to go.

Because I was made for this sewer,

baby, and I am the king!

He's taunting the champ

mercilessly.

I haven't seen

this kind of disrespect...

...shown to a heavyweight

champion in the ring since...

Would you stop playing

and fight!

- Buster Douglas.

- Buster Douglas, exactly.

The condition he's in,

sooner or later...

- Look at Ruiz dance around! The crowd is

loving it! - She's not watching the fight.

- Or hating it.

- Or hating it. Exactly.

What they came to see tonight was a

professional heavyweight championship fight...

...and that is not

what they're getting...

...and you better believe they are letting

these fighters know it.

You know, I seriously wonder just how

seriously the champ is taking this fight.

The champ has shown up here tonight

in the worst condition of his career.

Yeah, I've got

to agree with you.

- There was a lot of speculation

about the condition he was in. -

Hello? Hey, baby,

kind of a bad time right now.

What? All right.

Guess quick, okay?

All right. The hint was, you really

want it and it'll keep you warm.

No, Monique, it's not that. I mean, I had

that. It goes where I go. You know what l...

Hang on. Wha... Oh, Jesus, Angela!

The fight's starting.

What? The deluxe

has meatballs, baby!

All right, I gotta go.

The fight's starting.

Listen, I gotta go.

The fight's starting.

Hey, I dig affection, baby,

but not while I'm driving.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

- That seat's taken.

Oh, but you can sit here.

- Well, I'll just need one minute.

- Me too.

- It's in the pocket.

- Have you been writing to me?

Yeah, go Sea Devils!

Holy cow!

The challenger is down! Ruiz is down!

What a punch

by Lincoln Tyler!

Ruiz was pushing it! He was...

- He head-butted!

- Oh, he head-butted! It's a head-butt!

- Here comes the pain, baby!

- Oh, he must not... Didn't he see that?

- Here comes the pain! - This is a potentially

devastating blow to the champ.

I can't see if it's opened up

a cut over his eye or not.

We saw it in the Holyfield-Tyson match,
