Brotherhood

The memories that you've lost are probably gone for good.

I feel fine.

You get well.

You come back here.

Your business will be waiting for you.

You believe your brother's involved in organized crime programs?

My brother owns a liquor store.

Look a! each other. Very nice.

Tommy, are you happy?

Can we just table this until after the election?

If something doesn't change, I'm gonna end up

a bitter and nasty person. I don't want to be that person.

You feel guilty?

You know, Freddie told me not to do this.

Fuck Freddie. Freddie's not my cousin.

I'm pregnant.

I can't...

I know you're trying to be nice to me. Don't be nice lo me.

You just need to drive me to the clinic, so I can do this.

You're useless right now, Giggs.

- You got problems at home. - I know, don't care.

You're going to become Freddie Clark's dirty cop.

Once he trusts you, you're gonna turn around and serve him up to me.

Him, the Caffee brothers, the whole rat's nest.

They are slandering you, Tommy.

- It's politics, ma. - Mr. Mayor?

Did you know the Mayor and the Governor were coming after me'?

I need a majority leader with a less...

- independent spirit. - I'm gonna make you pay.

Not only will I keep my job, but I'm gonna take yours.

You and I have been good partners.

We've kept the peace. We've both done well.

I want Michael Caffee dead.

What's I! gonna take?

Michael Caffee has agreed to become the T.E.C. informant.

I'm gonna give you enough to put Freddie cork away

for a long time.

You are a slippery eel, you know that?

This is where the line gets a little hazy.

- What line'! - The one between right and wrong.

I'm not sure my life has any meaning outside my family.

So I've decided I want to fight for it.

DO you?

You don't quit the task force.

I'm trying.

Good.

Your brother's the lead story on the 6:00 news.

My brother's got nothing to do with me.

Michael knows that you're the one who tried lo whack him.

If it weren't for your brother,

you might have had me.

Somethings can't stand the light of day.

I knew Freddie was gonna kill you that night at the wedding.

I knew and I never told you.

Meanwhile, environmental groups here at home...

met with congressman and senators from Washington, D. C.

To try and convince them to focus on...

All right. Let's hit the road.

Michael, did you take your medication?

- You want me fuckin' doped up, don't ya'? - Did you take it?

I took the fucking medication, all right? Get off my back.

We all know the state of Rhode Island is in serious financial trouble.

Get him off.

Get the fuck off my TV.

Get the fuck...

Get a bigger one.

Mr. Carvalho,

do you know what a proffer is'?

You tell us everything bad you've ever done, with whom and when.

In return for which

we will put a 5K1 in your file that will go to the judge.

And hopefully influence him to reduce your sentence.

"Hopefully?"

My minister says we live on hope.

Mr. Speaker'?

In here.

I'd give a million bucks for a good crap.

Carvalhds yakking to the US Attorney's office, trying to get his sentence reduced.

We need to preempt the prick.

I want you to...

I want you to organize a special committee to...

investigate allegations into the corruption

in the awarding of slate contracts... The usual dog and pony show.

You, gel me some toilet paper.

You know, if Carvalho talks,

we're gonna need more than the usual dog and pony show.

We should fund a high-priority investigation by the state police.

How do we control it?

We'll appoint a friendly. Someone who...

You know, I know the guy. He'll bitch and moan about doing the right thing,

but in the end he'll give us what we want.

Set it up.

And then I need you to talk to Panzarella.

The man is making unpleasant noises about needing more money for the city.

There is no more money. You make that clear to him, OK?

Last thing I need is a... public feud with the fuckin' mayor.

Can I get some paper towel, please?

Thank you. You got that? Good.

Now, I need you to contact a guy named,

Martin Kilpatrick.

He's a...

schoolteacher turned developer. He wants to...

turn the waterfront into our very own...

riviera.

Humor him, huh?

You're good at that.

Driver's license?

How about a birth certificate?

Birth...

certificate?

This is ridiculous.

I've gotta learn Spanish. How can I help these poor people

if I can't speak their language?

What kind of ice cream should I gel?

Rose's birthday party.

Right.

Ben & Jerry's chunky monkey.

That's too expensive.

Stop & Shop's got a nice strawberry.

I'm getting so fat.

You know, at your age, some women never lose the weight.

Guess what.

There'll be a gathering of the troops after work tonight

to discuss the fact that the new slate budget includes no money

for social services.

Guess I better go call Rose and ask if she can cook dinner

for the girls and Tommy.

Heaven forbid there shouldn't be a hot meal on the table.

You like it here, don't you'?

The land of futility?

Yeah, I love it.

Here, let me do that for you.

Got tired wailin' for the sun to go down.

Mind ifljoin you?

Suit yourself.

So, what, you're upset because Michael won't come to your birthday party?

I couldn't give a fig who comes lo my birthday party.

Are you sickly then?

Fit as a fiddle.

The whole point of a birthday party

is to have your entire family there, not half your family.

And what good is havin' one of my sons there if the other one isn't?

I'll talk to him.

Don't you dare.

Auntie Rose,

I've been wantin' to ask you something.

I was wondering what was it like for you with my father.

You know...

Havin' to pretend you didn't feel what you felt.

How did you do that without going completely bonkers?

Not that it's any of your business, but...

it wasn't easy.

Matter of fact, it was...

the most difficult thing lever did in my life.

But...

very IIGCQSSGFY.

Why is a fiddle fit?

Why is rain right?

He's yours.

He's inside the city limits.

He's over the city line, which means he's state. He's yours.

So where's the city line?

Right here.

- How the fuck do you know that'? - Because I do.

Supposing that is true, which it isn't,

this motherfucker dragged his sorry ass

over the city line and then died.

See, he was shot...

right here...

in the city.

So what?

It's not a homicide case 'cause he got shot.

K's a homicide case 'cause he died.

And he died right over here, which is outside the city limits,

which makes ii state jurisdiction, which is you.

All right, trooper do-right?

Go gel your bad guy, 'cause every life is sacred.

Come on, boys. We're outta here.

Who's buying coffees?

It's been eight months.

Either put my client on trial or let him go.

Your client is a scumbag.

We'll try him when we're good and ready.

We want bail.

My client is a flight risk. He'd never leave his wife and kids. You know that.

I'm sittin' right here. You don't have to talk like I'm in fuckin' Peru.

If you don't give him bail, we'll sue.

For what? Endangering my client's life.

Shouldn't be hard to convince a jury.

Marty Trio was killed sitting right next to my client

while under your protection.

There's no fuckin' way Freddie gets out and he doesn't come gunnin' for Michael.

He fuckin' told me. He wants his shit back.

Which means me and you gotta fuckin' choose between fat-ass fuckin' Freddie

and cocksucker caffee.

- Michael, did you hear the news? - What?

Freddie got bail.

- What the fuck are you talking about? - He's gettin' bail.

Where'd you hear that'?

Where did you hear that'?
