Thick As Thieves Page #7

we can replace the light feed with

a continuous loop of study shots...

with no face inside.

That still leaves the voice sensors,

the fingerprints,

the motion detectors,

the meanest-looking vault door

I have ever seen in my life.

The inner vault door,

Swiss-made, 3 feet thick,

with spring-driven relocking bolts.

If you punch out the lock,

they block retraction...

so that you couldn't open it

even if you knew the combination.

Abraham Lincoln.

- Broadway.

- Broadway.

One week, we've got them all.

Dan McWilliams, MTA.

Yes, we're going to be doing

some maintenance work...

in the subway adjacent

to your basement next week.

We'll be working nights and didn't

want the drilling to alarm you.

You place

an ultrasonic transducer here,

broadcasting at the exact operating

frequency of the transmitter...

and it bounces back

the frequency to the unit.

At least in theory.

Have you ever used

an ultrasonic transducer?

Nope.

Can you get an ultrasonic transducer?

I can get anything, my friend.

- Can you get past a keypad?

- It is, as always, a question of time.

One tumbler at a time.

It is tight... but possible.

You.

Yeah.

Me.

What's so funny?

I hate Chinese food.

I absolutely, unequivocally,

irrevocably,

loathe Chinese food.

Oh...

Leonid, my boss,

is addicted to Chinese food.

I can't even stand the smell.

Another completely

wrong assumption.

No.

It's not completely...

wrong.

What?

Wow.

- You stole this.

- Yes, I did.

- Didn't you?

- Yes. That's what I do.

Wait.

We have a problem.

The bracelet?

I cannot return it.

No, I like it.

So what could possibly be a problem?

You.

- What?

- Me.

I thought that part

was not a problem.

And Ripley.

That part is a problem.

Yours and Ripley's

is a world I just can't trust.

How did your father die?

By gunshot.

Who did it?

He had gambling debts to a Russian

gangster named Nicky Petrovich.

- Nicky wants his money.

- Ask him.

This concept

of... huh, vorovosky...

"Vorovosky mlr",

Yes, I'm familiar with it.

Where... where one is responsible

for the debts of another one.

Hey, why would they kill

your father and let Ripley live?

Because Ripley has... I don't know...

how'd you want me to put this?

Earning power.

Gaby...

I don't wanna go

to any more funerals.

I wanna be with you

but I can't promise you that,

and you can't promise me

a thing, so...

maybe we shouldn't even try.

Oh, you, you, you, you.

Get in.

I know you don't want to, I know you

don't mean to, but you will hurt her.

She doesn't need any more of that.

None of which you had

anything to do with. Am I right?

Is there something

you want to ask me?

Yes.

Why is Victor dead
