Here, you take the chain.

You've got the over-watch.

Swing the chain.

You're a guy walking the dog.

Loosen your collar.

Told me 2:
oo.

It's closing time, gents.

Time to pack it up.

Don't gotta go home,

but you can't stay here.

Closing up.

Can't sell booze after 2 a.m.

No, I just wanted to pay you

that money I owe you.

- How about them sox, huh?

- Yeah, what are you gonna do?

Yeah. "curse of the Bambino,"

isn't that what you call it?

That's right. Where are you from?

Yeah, well, actually,

I was just trying to find my niece.

Oh, that's what you're looking for?

Because a lot of guys come in here

looking for someone else's niece.

No. Girl like that...

...been in tonight?

- Pretty girl.

- Yeah, that's my type.

Girl like that been in?

You sure you're looking

for your niece?

Because a lot of guys come in here and

go home with some rather younger girl.

No, no. Why...?

Why would...

...a younger girl like that

want to be with a guy like me?

Howdy, pard.

I was wondering

if I could ask you a favor.

I love you, baby,

but the season's over.

Your friend said you

were sort of a matchmaker.

Look, you can't believe

everything you hear.

- Catch you later.

- You know it.

Okay, lock it up.

Drive safely, now.

- Yeah?

- I was looking for a girl.

For a young girl.

Well, aren't we all?

My question was, why would

a young, pretty girl like that...

...go out with a guy like me?

And if you could answer that...

Look, bub...

what is this?

What's this? It's Rohypnol, is it?

Is this Ro? Is this Roofy? Is this a

one-sided conversation? What's his name?

- Jerry Zimmer.

- Jerry. Jerry.

Where's the girl?

Where's the girl, Jerry?

- Jerry, where's the girl?

- What girl?

Dose her? You dose her, Jerry?

- Hey.

- What?

- About 1 o, 15 thou.

- What's that for?

- I think you broke my arm!

- Where's the girl?

I think you broke my arm!

Now it's broken.

Where is the girl, Jerry?

I never saw that girl.

Where's the girl?

Where did you take her?

Where did you take this girl, Jerry?

That's not the girl.

Where did you take this girl, Jerry?

Take your knife out.

Where did you take the girl, Jerry?

Take his eye out.

You bet your life.

Wait! Wait! Wait!

I took the girl.

I took the girl to...

Three units remain on the perimeter

until further instructions.

The sniper is to stand down.

Plainclothes, transport in the south alley.

I got it.

- Is that right?

- Yes.

We run an escort service. There is no

impropriety here. There is no illegality.

- Who is she?

- Nadya Tellich.

Serb. Green card,

five years ago.

They sign a contract

with us for personal services...

...and they pay us so much

for each call, and the girls pay us.
