You want a drink or something?

No.

We want to talk to you about Henry Gondorff.

Yeah? l don't think l know him.

Well, give yourself a couple of seconds.

You wouldn't want to lie to me.

Lt. Snyder says you've done a lot of confidence work

in his town.

Oh, yeah? Lt. Snyder doesn't know shit.

(Johnny) You ain't got nothing on me.

Yeah?

How about counterfeiting?

We've got a tip that Gondorff is gonna run a con

on the South Side here.

All you've got to do is tell us

when he's gonna play his chump.

We come in at the sting, make the pinch,

and you walk out free as a bird.

No.

You want to spend the next 20 years

in a federal penitentiary, starting tonight?

l'll make parole.

Like hell. You won't even get a review.

l'll chance it.

Okay. If that's the way you want it.

We might even provide you with a little company

on your way up the river.

That wife of Luther Coleman's.

Snyder, what was her name?

Alva.

Alva.

That's it. Alva Coleman.

Pretty fair grifter in her time.

Snyder's given us quite a folder on her.

Nothing maior by itself, but, uh,

put them all together, it could add up to a lot of years.

You stink, mister.

Don't be a sap.

lt's not her l want.

lf you're too dumb to save yourself,

there's no sense dragging her down with you.

lt's over, Hooker.

You can save me a lot of trouble.

But l'm gonna get Henry Gondorff

whether you help me out or not.

Will you wait till the chump is played?

Hell, yes.

We don't care about the mark. He deserves what he gets.

l mean completely played.

You come in before we beat him, and l'll kill him.

All right, Hooker.

But you try to take it on the lam,

and we'll shoot you down on sight.
