Yes, I'm alone.
Good luck, Jim.

Of course not.
I'll pay you $1,000 if you represent the boy.
the defendant had been hiding.
to come back and work for her, but, uh--
No, sir.
if you can deliver the cross, I'll pay you $165,000.
you must have checked the registration on that gun.
You say "of course" as though you were worthy of that trust?
Well, you told us that that's where
Did your contact know of anyone
No comment.
That's right.

Thank you, sir. Cross-examine.

No, but there's something here that's rather curious.
My dear Runyan, I do wish you would reconsider.
Your Honor, if you'll consult the record,
The gun was, uh,
I wonder if I could presume on our short acquaintance.
Tell me, Mr. Karr: why did you come to me?
That's a lot of history for a little piece of iron.
on January 15th of this year.
I didn't mean to hurt him, Mrs. Runyan.
particularly the Cross of Santa Maria.
MASON: So this is the famous Cruz de Santa Maria.
Unlucky?
Yeah, Harry, what is it?
JIMMY: I don't believe you.
Jimmy was happy for the first time.
Mm.
He just offered me 165,000.
