You Can Never Hold Back Spring
DECLAN: Previously on Bad Blood - You know who I am, right? - Yes.
You're gonna receive bids for the east end snow removal contract, and these four companies are who you're gonna give the bid to I want every file on snow removal contracts in the city and surrounding areas.
LING: These boys have been terrorizing my son.
You said you'll work for me.
(GRUNTS) My mom She left when I was six.
My old man hooks up with this woman.
She was a junkie.
She said, "Get rid of 'em.
" Your father gave his kids away? DECLAN: They're coming at us from all sides.
Don't you dare try to blame my son.
- You understand? - Yes.
Yes, boss! Whatever it takes to remind you of your place.
Yes, boss.
MAN: Vito is coming back to a shit storm.
Do you get that? He doesn't wanna see you, Declan.
What? You failed me.
VITO: I know Nico wasn't easy.
- But I left you in charge.
- (GUNSHOTS) MAN: Sal's here.
- Well, who's Sal? - Sal Montagna.
Acting head of the Bonanno family.
They wanted our action for years.
Vito will cut your head off if he finds you.
Vito is not gonna be doing much of anything.
His organization is going to fall apart.
- (GUN FIRING) - (GLASS SHATTERING) VITO: They tried to wipe out the family.
(GUN FIRING) Including you.
You're one of us.
We gotta find out who's talking.
I say, from now on, only you, me and Gio know the drop-off points.
It was Gio.
It was him.
(GUN FIRING) Glad you're on our side.
Are you ready to be a king? Absolutely.
(THEME MUSIC PLAYING) DECLAN: There's a lot of myths surrounding wine.
People think wine gets better with age, that's actually bullshit.
Wine is a living thing.
And like all things that live, it breeds, it matures, it can become more robust or turn sour.
It's all about timing.
The right bottle at the right time takes its rightful place in history.
- Thank you.
- Who's this guy? I need a new driver.
I'll get you a new driver.
He seems all right.
Who referred him? Leclair.
When I find some time, we'll sit down and I'll think about it.
I, uh I have to take care of some stuff.
Do you need anything? Anything? No.
What's so special about the bottle? I bought it at an auction when Nico was born.
I was going to share it with him on his birthday.
I'm going to get going.
(FOOTSTEPS RECEDING) God damn it.
You got the wrong place, pal.
I did not order a pizza.
Funny.
I didn't know if there'd be any place to eat out here.
Little House on the Prairie.
It's a nice property you've got.
What's with the shit barn? You think you get golf on this thing? - Look at it.
- (STATIC) Come on Ow! This is amazing.
(MAN TALKING INDISTINCTLY ON TV) Hey, uh I'm thinking of bringing up some reinforcements from New York.
Quietly.
But, uh I don't want to risk them getting popped at customs, so I'm going to need hardware from you.
No problem.
When this happens, it's going to happen fast and it's going to happen hard.
Close to the finish line, this is where we separate the winners from the losers.
I don't need a half-time speech, Sal.
Just trying to do a little bonding here, you know.
This attitude of yours is not very endearing.
I was going to say get comfortable, but I get it.
New Yorkers have their own speed.
I'm going to go take a leak.
Carry on.
Just making myself at home.
I think we should do Vito at the Candy Shop.
I hate that goddamn place.
Why can't he meet at a strip club like everybody else? Let's get some pizza.
- (GUNSHOT) - SAL: God damn it! (GASPING) - (GUN CLICKING) - God damn it! You rat piece of shit! - (GUNSHOT) - (GLASS SHATTERING) (GRUNTING) (GROANING) Declan, Declan, please.
Please, please, please.
Please, what do you want? What do you want? I won't make you beg, Sal.
SAL: You turned on me.
- You worthless piece of sh - (GUNSHOT) For the past 15 years, the same five companies have won snow removal bids for the entire city and surrounding municipalities.
They don't even bother to change their bids from year to year to fix the prices.
I could prosecute these companies on collusion just off these patterns.
They really don't pay as close attention to covering their tracks for snow removal as they do for construction.
Mmm.
- Hey, that's good.
- I know.
What's this man's name again? Marc Desjardins.
He's in charge of, um, receiving contracts and doling out bids.
Okay, let's go over everything one more time before we bring him in.
We've been over it 10 times.
I let you have candy for breakfast, and you're whining.
- You let me have it? - Yeah.
Jeanne? Could you pick up lunch for everyone, please? Grilled salmon and salad.
- For yourself, too.
- Sure.
GUY: Why are you ordering lunch for us? Because your diet is terrible.
It's going to effect your mental stamina.
Omega 3s are good for your mind.
If you ever tell me to drop and give me 20, I'm quitting.
Don't be silly.
You could never do 20 push-ups.
(LAUGHING) Hi.
They're bringing someone in.
Marc Desjardins.
Hi, Marc.
Remember me? Listen, something's come up.
And I'm going to need you to listen to me very carefully.
And don't say anything until I'm done, okay? You're going to be brought in for questioning.
They're going to ask you about those fixed snow removal contracts.
- You're going to admit to it.
- What? Don't talk until I'm done.
You're going to get charged.
But there's a good chance you won't get any time in jail because you're going to cooperate fully.
But if you do, only two years, you'll serve about eight months.
- But you - No, no, no.
Don't talk.
Don't talk.
We're going to take care of your family, Marc.
School, bills We'll pay off your mortgage.
And when you get out, if you do serve time in jail, we're going to find you a new job.
Because you won't be allowed to work for the government anymore.
Take a breath.
(INHALES SHAKILY) (EXHALES) Now you can talk.
- I'm going to jail.
- Hopefully not.
Yeah, I (STUTTERING) I won't go to Sit.
Marc.
Marc, you're a decent guy.
I like you.
But let's cut the bullshit.
You took money to do illegal things and now you've been caught.
Okay, so just stop the wishful thinking and let's deal with the situation.
We take care of our friends as long as you remain a friend.
Now listen to me.
This is what's going to happen, and this is what you're going to say.
Hey.
I thought you had a meeting.
I did, but, um I have a headache so I came back.
You okay? Yeah, fine.
(KNOCK AT DOOR) Yeah? It's done.
You got problems? - Nah.
- Did he see it coming? - Not for a second.
- (GRUNTS) Grab a piece.
And the other thing? - Mr.
Desjardins.
- Oh, nothing to worry about.
Mmm.
- Hey.
Let's have a drink, yeah? - Mmm.
(INHALES SHARPLY) (INDICATOR CLATTERS) (SNIFFLES) (EXHALES) We won.
Vito.
We won.
What is it? Mmm.
I sent the new guy out to get me a puzzle.
And I told him to throw away the box so now I don't know what it is.
- What - When Nico was a kid, he did the same thing and threw away the box.
And we sat there for like about two months.
You know, trying to do it, it was nothing.
Nothing, nothing And then, finally, you know, you get the right piece snapped into place and you see the whole landscape.
It was like (EXHALES) Like a revelation.
I was teaching him a life lesson.
About patience, tenacity, work ethic (GRUMBLES) When it all came together, I mean, I don't think I'd ever seen anybody that excited in my life.
DECLAN: Hey! Oh, hey! I didn't hear you come in.
DECLAN: Didn't know you were here.
Hi.
- Hi.
- Hey.
Hey.
- You okay? - Yeah, I'm great.
- What is this? - VITO: A puzzle.
It's a puzzle, uh, Vito's good at puzzles.
Huh.
I used to love doing puzzles when I was a kid.
- Where's the box? - No box.
- You're doing it blind? - Yeah.
MICHELLE: Oh, I like a challenge.
VITO: All right, then.
You're in.
- You gotta help me.
- I'm going to go.
VITO: All right, thanks, Declan.
Anything, boss.
See you.
VITO: So you take the, um You take the light bits, I'll take the dark bits.
MICHELLE: Okay.
FRANCE: Monsieur Desjardins, as you can see, there's a pretty clear pattern here.
I have to say I'm shocked at the laziness of it all.
We have your finances too, Marc.
You live a pretty modest life, but you know there are things you can't afford on your salary.
I, um I took I took money.
For what, exactly? I took money to give City contracts to companies.
Each year they would show me a list of which companies were Were supposed to get the jobs.
Who gave you the list? (STUTTERS) It was always a A different person and I, I, um I never knew their names.
Did they give you the list on paper? They would show me the list and I had to memorize it.
Did you ever meet Vito Rizzuto? No.
Did his name ever come up? No.
I I mean, I've heard of him.
You know, from the From the newspapers or whatever.
I can't believe that year after year, a stranger would come and you would know exactly what to do.
But the first time they approached you Must have been someone important.
The one who set up the arrangement.
Did they threaten you, Marc? Because if they threatened you, I can help you here.
You did this against your own will.
(WHISPERS) I don't want to go to jail.
I can't guarantee that.
If you don't give me a name, I guarantee you will.
This is serious, Marc.
You can get charged for every year and every company you gave contracts to.
Off the top of my head - (TAPPING) - You got 50 years right there.
What's the name? Sal Montagna.
REPORTER: (ON TV)The body of Sal Montagna alleged boss of New York's Bonanno crime family was found in the waters by the Old Port today.
He'd been reportedly shot several times.
Montreal police have not given a statement other than they say GUY: We finally get a name, and he turns up dead the next day.
- What are the chances? - Wake up, Guy.
That's no coincidence.
Sal Montagna, a New York boss, has been controlling our city works? No.
He was told to give us that name.
So he knew we were coming.
How? (SIGHS) There's always leaks.
You can never plug them all.
So, what next? We are very grateful for the testimony we've already received from individuals from the private and the public sectors, exposing corruption and collusion.
Whistleblowing must no longer be seen as an act of betrayal.
REPORTER 1: Will you be releasing those names? No, not yet.
What have they said? What I can say at this time, is that this runs through all levels of our government.
REPORTER 2: Which firms are implicated? And we are going to uncover every person who participates in stealing from our citizens.
REPORTER 3: Does this go all the way to the mayor's office? That's all the time I have for today.
I must get back to work.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER) (INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS) (INDISTINCT TALKING AND LAUGHING) JACQUES: It's been a while, Vito.
Easy, Jacques.
This place stinks.
We had a birthday party last night, and things got a little crazy.
What, so crazy you couldn't piss in a toilet? Come on, let's bring it outside.
Why, so someone can shoot me from the bushes? - That's funny, Vito.
- Can you see that, Jacques? Him, running away from 100 bikers with those shoes? They're 1,000 bucks each.
If I stand here for two more seconds, I'm going to start puking.
Yeah, no offense, Jacques.
DECLAN: It stinks.
So what do you want, Vito? I originally came to you as a businessman.
But the minute I went down, you came at me as a gangster.
You want gangster? You got it.
No more syndicate, no more partnership.
From now on, it's just me.
A couple phone calls, I can shut off your entire supply.
Then I can start a federal investigation against your organization.
Take me a couple minutes.
You want to know the reason I keep you around? 'Cause you're useful to me as a cow is to a farmer.
You understand? Yeah.
I gotta tell you, Jacques.
You got a nice property here.
If you ever get sick of living in that shithole, I'll build you something nice.
(GUN FIRING) - Don't move! Don't move! - (GUNS COCKING) Do not move.
My guy, or my 100 guys.
They'll shoot every single one of you, if you so much as even shift.
(GUNSHOTS) VITO: Martin, right? You the second in command? Congratulations.
You just got a promotion.
I hope my terms and conditions are acceptable.
Yeah.
Good.
Let's get out of here.
It's me and my father.
It's a great picture.
I met your father.
Years ago.
How's he doing? He's had a bit of heart trouble recently, but he's doing better now.
Good.
- You work here full-time? - No.
Just got into law school.
But I deferred for a semester to help my father out while he rests.
Law school.
That's really, really nice what you're doing for your father.
It's nothing compared to what he's done for me.
Um, I Need to go check what the lunch specials are.
Um Do you need cream or sugar? (RACHEL SPEAKING FRENCH) - Did you hear? - What? The mayor's taking a few days off.
My guy on the inside said he's probably going to resign.
Let's see how it plays out.
I'll talk to you soon.
Bye.
I got somebody else.
A city engineer who says that he accepted bribes to sign off on overinflated construction budgets.
- Fantastic.
- How many is that now? That's five, just today.
You were right.
We got people running scared.
And when we're done, we'll have cleaned it all up.
We never clean it all up.
We just put a nice shine on it for a while.
Nice job.
The mayor of Montreal has had enough of the corruption allegations surrounding City Hall, and surrounding him.
Gerald Tremblay announced he's stepping down.
(BANGING) - (BANGING) - Whoa! Take it easy.
Yeah? What do you want? Hi, Lonnie.
Who are you? Do you not recognize me? Well, if I recognize you, I'm not going to go, "Who are you?" Who are you? Oh.
Holy shit.
Wanna come in? (DOOR CLOSES) - Leave it, just leave it.
- Yeah, all right.
I heard you're a big-time gangster.
- Where did you hear that? - You're a big shot.
Seen it in the papers.
I thought you were in the joint.
Got out a long time ago.
That's good.
Where you living now? - What? - Where are you living? - Montreal.
- That's good.
Thank you.
(LIGHTER CLICKS) (EXHALES) Nice car you're driving there.
Yeah.
- It's yours? - Mmm-hmm.
Well, me, I'm still the same old guy, I'm sitting here waiting for a check.
My welfare check has got to come soon because sink went haywire, of course I had to fix it.
And the dude wants a couple or 300 more from me, so I got nothing until Wednesday.
It's pretty rough, so I don't know if you Would you consider maybe Peeling off a couple? Helping me out, your old man, with a With a few bucks? Is it possible? Wow.
Probably 10 or 15 grand in here.
I make that in an afternoon.
But, no, I got nothing for you.
What? You show up out of nowhere and you're going to talk to me like a goof, you little shit? What do you want, boy? What do you want? What I wanted was to find you.
So I hired someone.
Didn't take very long.
It's funny that you're here.
And I control all the drugs in this town.
Yeah, it's funny.
Ironic.
Hey, Lonnie.
You don't mind, do you? Lonnie.
I think you should really listen to this part.
I got in touch with my distributors.
And I said to them that no one, and I mean no one, is to ever sell you drugs again.
If they do, they're dead.
And if I hear, about anyone in this shithole town, who buys drugs for you, they're dead.
As of now, you're cut off, Lonnie.
What? Why? What are you trying to do? (STUTTERS) What What is your plan here? Is it to get me clean? You want to get me clean? You want to save the day? Is that it? You a big shot coming here Well, you listen to me, now.
I don't want to get clean.
Certainly not for an old piece of shit like you.
Get clean? (CHUCKLES) I'm not here to help you get clean, Lonnie.
I'm here to help you suffer.
You gave us up.
Your children.
You gave us up.
You gave up me, and my beautiful little sister, so you could get high.
You're not going to score anymore.
Just stay here.
Because you're broke, can't leave.
Hell is going to start when you burn through your stash.
And if you ever do get clean, then I'll help you blow your brains out when you realize what an incredible piece of shit you really are.
You are a horrible, horrible waste of life.
(CAR ENGINE STARTS) Come on, little boy! You're probably still pissing your goddamn pants! Come on back! Come here and deal with me, I'll cut you over every which way, you piece of shit! Go on, little boy! We should go on vacation.
Dominican Republic.
- No.
- Hmm? Every time we go there, you either play golf the whole time, - or do business.
- No.
This time, no golf, no meetings.
We just rent a little cabana, we eat a lot, we drink too much, we sleep in the sun.
You know A real vacation.
- Yeah, a real vacation.
- Really? Yeah, I won't even bring my phone.
- Wow.
- Yeah, I know.
- It would be good, come on.
- (CELL PHONE BUZZING) Uh, hang on.
(SIGHS) Yeah.
All right.
Give me a couple minutes.
Sorry, babe.
We found him a mile from a crime scene.
Two hours north of the city.
Six bodies.
Now, City Hall's all over this.
Twenty-four-hour security and no one's allowed to talk to him.
Vito, I pulled a lot of favors to get you five minutes alone with him.
Why should I go talk to him? GILLES: He dragged himself a mile in the ground, bleeding to death.
First thing he said to me when I saw him was He needed to talk to you.
He's probably going to die, Vito.
Very soon.
Maybe you should hear him out.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR) Vito? What's going on? - You going to invite me in? - Yeah, come in.
Yeah.
- Drink? - Yeah.
You never invited me over, you know that.
Because I always go to you.
Hmm.
You got no pictures.
Family, friends.
You know, milestones.
Not a picture guy.
Hmm.
(CLEARS THROAT) Vito.
You all right? (CHUCKLES) I've been trying to figure out where I went wrong.
About how I got here.
I keep thinking back to that night.
Nico's birthday, before I was arrested.
We were taking photos, and I stood back and I saw my whole family.
From my parents to my grandkids in a house that I built.
And in that exact moment, I wanted for nothing.
The people that killed my father, my son Nothing would ever be enough for them.
For that kind of person, it's not about power, or money For that kind of person, it's about a life of filling a hole that has no bottom.
Gio's still alive.
- What? - Hmm.
We finished the job, and then he shot me.
You were a snitch, Gio.
No.
No.
(COUGHS) I could never.
Is that what he told you? Mr.
Rizzuto, how can you even think something like that about me? You were the only one who knew the drop-off points.
But you know me.
I would never do anything like that to you.
You gotta believe me.
(LABORED BREATHING) When I was laying out there in the woods, I thought I was going to die.
(RETCHING) But, I thought, "No, I can't.
" So I crawled back to you.
I crawled because I wasn't going to die, before I could tell you (INHALES) Tell me what? He wasn't the mole.
You were.
(CHUCKLES) Gio's lying.
He's lying if he's still alive.
He knew you'd kill him anyway if he didn't make up shit.
I knew there was no way that Gio would ever, ever turn against me.
I should have followed my gut.
But you You knew exactly how to work me.
I just want to know.
Did Sal get to you before or after they killed my son? Hmm? Was it before or was it after? - Was it before or was it after? - Neither.
They didn't approach me.
I approached them.
I went to them.
SAL: So, you want to work with us? DECLAN: I do.
You've taken out Vito's kid, his old man, that's not going to give you everything you want.
Vito Rizzuto's more than just a name.
You want to take down the entire operation, you're going to need someone on the inside.
What'd Vito do to you? What'd he do to you? They killed my son.
They killed my son! Everybody we've ever killed was somebody's son, Vito.
What makes your pain more important than theirs? Who are you? - Huh? - I never knew.
I never had anyone until I had you.
You welcomed me home, you said, "I'll never forget it.
" Your son, I tried to protect him, God as my witness.
And your father, I loved him.
I loved him and he loved me.
I was family.
Like you always told me I was.
And then You told me the real truth.
I was just an employee.
Just on the payroll.
I did everything for you.
I spent four years in prison, unprotected, for what? For what? A job? I can do your job.
I don't know why I didn't see it before.
You're a frigging animal.
You hired a gangster.
You surprised I'm better at it than you? Wanna kill me? Go ahead.
Or else, get out.
(SPITS) (DOOR CLOSES) I can cancel if you want.
It's just a dinner with friends.
No.
You go.
I'll be fine, you know.
I wanna I want to be alone, anyway.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
- I won't be late.
- All right.
(CLEARS THROAT) (EXHALES) Happy birthday, my son.
DECLAN: We got a deal, Sal? But you're not on the inside.
He froze you out.
I mean, what kind of partner are you going to be if they're not even talking to you? I know how to get back in.
Him.
I'm going to need your boy.
BRUNO: You should build yourself something nice.
No, I like it, just the way it is.
Quiet, nice, cheap.
- (GUN FIRING) - (GLASS SHATTERS) BRUNO: Holy shit! They tried to wipe out the family.
Including you.
You're one of us.
DECLAN: And once I'm back in, I'll get Vito to do the work for us.
What do you think? I think we should clear the whole goddamn board.
Kill them all.
No one left but us.
Hmm.
Now we're going to dismantle operations.
Vito and his businesses, we're going to start tearing them apart.
Little by little by little.
I'm going to start giving you our drop points.
There's a farm, down by the Vermont border.
(GUN FIRING) - Stash house in Little Burgundy.
- (DOOR CRASHING) - What? What the - Don't move.
- Easy, easy.
- Okay.
Okay.
Everything's working just fine.
But now I've got to give him a mole.
Which means I've got to sacrifice a pawn.
How far are we going to take this? DECLAN: All the way.
(GUN FIRING) And the coup de grace.
DECLAN: I'll take care of that.
(ENGINES REVVING) Hey, man.
Mmm-hmm.
- Good to see you, brother.
- You, too.
- It was a good month.
- Yeah, they all are.
- MARTIN: Yeah.
- You guys, uh - Want to stay for beer? - No can do.
We've got an initiation ceremony for two new recruits.
So I'll be out of touch for a few days.
- See ya.
- Salut.

This attitude of yours is not very endearing.
I was going to say get comfortable, but I get it.
New Yorkers have their own speed.
I'm going to go take a leak.
Carry on.
Just making myself at home.
I think we should do Vito at the Candy Shop.
I hate that goddamn place.
Why can't he meet at a strip club like everybody else? Let's get some pizza.

Please, please, please.
Please, what do you want? What do you want? I won't make you beg, Sal.
SAL: You turned on me.
- You worthless piece of sh - (GUNSHOT) For the past 15 years, the same five companies have won snow removal bids for the entire city and surrounding municipalities.
They don't even bother to change their bids from year to year to fix the prices.
I could prosecute these companies on collusion just off these patterns.
They really don't pay as close attention to covering their tracks for snow removal as they do for construction.
Mmm.
- Hey, that's good.
- I know.
What's this man's name again? Marc Desjardins.
He's in charge of, um, receiving contracts and doling out bids.
Okay, let's go over everything one more time before we bring him in.
We've been over it 10 times.
I let you have candy for breakfast, and you're whining.
- You let me have it? - Yeah.
Jeanne? Could you pick up lunch for everyone, please? Grilled salmon and salad.
- For yourself, too.
- Sure.
GUY: Why are you ordering lunch for us? Because your diet is terrible.
It's going to effect your mental stamina.
Omega 3s are good for your mind.
If you ever tell me to drop and give me 20, I'm quitting.
Don't be silly.
You could never do 20 push-ups.
(LAUGHING) Hi.
They're bringing someone in.
Marc Desjardins.
Hi, Marc.
Remember me? Listen, something's come up.
And I'm going to need you to listen to me very carefully.
And don't say anything until I'm done, okay? You're going to be brought in for questioning.
They're going to ask you about those fixed snow removal contracts.
- You're going to admit to it.
- What? Don't talk until I'm done.
You're going to get charged.
But there's a good chance you won't get any time in jail because you're going to cooperate fully.
But if you do, only two years, you'll serve about eight months.
- But you - No, no, no.
Don't talk.
Don't talk.
We're going to take care of your family, Marc.
School, bills We'll pay off your mortgage.
And when you get out, if you do serve time in jail, we're going to find you a new job.
Because you won't be allowed to work for the government anymore.
Take a breath.
(INHALES SHAKILY) (EXHALES) Now you can talk.
- I'm going to jail.
- Hopefully not.
Yeah, I (STUTTERING) I won't go to Sit.
Marc.
Marc, you're a decent guy.
I like you.
But let's cut the bullshit.
You took money to do illegal things and now you've been caught.
Okay, so just stop the wishful thinking and let's deal with the situation.
We take care of our friends as long as you remain a friend.
Now listen to me.
This is what's going to happen, and this is what you're going to say.
Hey.
I thought you had a meeting.
I did, but, um I have a headache so I came back.
You okay? Yeah, fine.
(KNOCK AT DOOR) Yeah? It's done.
You got problems? - Nah.
- Did he see it coming? - Not for a second.
- (GRUNTS) Grab a piece.
And the other thing? - Mr.
Desjardins.
- Oh, nothing to worry about.
Mmm.
- Hey.
Let's have a drink, yeah? - Mmm.
(INHALES SHARPLY) (INDICATOR CLATTERS) (SNIFFLES) (EXHALES) We won.
Vito.
We won.
What is it? Mmm.
I sent the new guy out to get me a puzzle.
And I told him to throw away the box so now I don't know what it is.
- What - When Nico was a kid, he did the same thing and threw away the box.
And we sat there for like about two months.
You know, trying to do it, it was nothing.
Nothing, nothing And then, finally, you know, you get the right piece snapped into place and you see the whole landscape.
It was like (EXHALES) Like a revelation.
I was teaching him a life lesson.
About patience, tenacity, work ethic (GRUMBLES) When it all came together, I mean, I don't think I'd ever seen anybody that excited in my life.
DECLAN: Hey! Oh, hey! I didn't hear you come in.
DECLAN: Didn't know you were here.
Hi.
- Hi.
- Hey.
Hey.
- You okay? - Yeah, I'm great.
- What is this? - VITO: A puzzle.
It's a puzzle, uh, Vito's good at puzzles.
Huh.
I used to love doing puzzles when I was a kid.
- Where's the box? - No box.
- You're doing it blind? - Yeah.
MICHELLE: Oh, I like a challenge.
VITO: All right, then.
You're in.
- You gotta help me.
- I'm going to go.
VITO: All right, thanks, Declan.
Anything, boss.
See you.
VITO: So you take the, um You take the light bits, I'll take the dark bits.
MICHELLE: Okay.
FRANCE: Monsieur Desjardins, as you can see, there's a pretty clear pattern here.
I have to say I'm shocked at the laziness of it all.
We have your finances too, Marc.
You live a pretty modest life, but you know there are things you can't afford on your salary.
I, um I took I took money.
For what, exactly? I took money to give City contracts to companies.
Each year they would show me a list of which companies were Were supposed to get the jobs.
Who gave you the list? (STUTTERS) It was always a A different person and I, I, um I never knew their names.
Did they give you the list on paper? They would show me the list and I had to memorize it.
Did you ever meet Vito Rizzuto? No.
Did his name ever come up? No.
I I mean, I've heard of him.
You know, from the From the newspapers or whatever.
I can't believe that year after year, a stranger would come and you would know exactly what to do.
But the first time they approached you Must have been someone important.
The one who set up the arrangement.
Did they threaten you, Marc? Because if they threatened you, I can help you here.
You did this against your own will.
(WHISPERS) I don't want to go to jail.
I can't guarantee that.
If you don't give me a name, I guarantee you will.
This is serious, Marc.
You can get charged for every year and every company you gave contracts to.
Off the top of my head - (TAPPING) - You got 50 years right there.
What's the name? Sal Montagna.
REPORTER: (ON TV)The body of Sal Montagna alleged boss of New York's Bonanno crime family was found in the waters by the Old Port today.
He'd been reportedly shot several times.
Montreal police have not given a statement other than they say GUY: We finally get a name, and he turns up dead the next day.
- What are the chances? - Wake up, Guy.
That's no coincidence.
Sal Montagna, a New York boss, has been controlling our city works? No.
He was told to give us that name.
So he knew we were coming.
How? (SIGHS) There's always leaks.
You can never plug them all.
So, what next? We are very grateful for the testimony we've already received from individuals from the private and the public sectors, exposing corruption and collusion.
Whistleblowing must no longer be seen as an act of betrayal.
REPORTER 1: Will you be releasing those names? No, not yet.
What have they said? What I can say at this time, is that this runs through all levels of our government.
REPORTER 2: Which firms are implicated? And we are going to uncover every person who participates in stealing from our citizens.
REPORTER 3: Does this go all the way to the mayor's office? That's all the time I have for today.
I must get back to work.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER) (INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS) (INDISTINCT TALKING AND LAUGHING) JACQUES: It's been a while, Vito.
Easy, Jacques.
This place stinks.
We had a birthday party last night, and things got a little crazy.
What, so crazy you couldn't piss in a toilet? Come on, let's bring it outside.
Why, so someone can shoot me from the bushes? - That's funny, Vito.
- Can you see that, Jacques? Him, running away from 100 bikers with those shoes? They're 1,000 bucks each.
If I stand here for two more seconds, I'm going to start puking.
Yeah, no offense, Jacques.
DECLAN: It stinks.
So what do you want, Vito? I originally came to you as a businessman.
But the minute I went down, you came at me as a gangster.
You want gangster? You got it.
No more syndicate, no more partnership.
From now on, it's just me.
A couple phone calls, I can shut off your entire supply.
Then I can start a federal investigation against your organization.
Take me a couple minutes.
You want to know the reason I keep you around? 'Cause you're useful to me as a cow is to a farmer.
You understand? Yeah.
I gotta tell you, Jacques.
You got a nice property here.
If you ever get sick of living in that shithole, I'll build you something nice.
(GUN FIRING) - Don't move! Don't move! - (GUNS COCKING) Do not move.
My guy, or my 100 guys.
They'll shoot every single one of you, if you so much as even shift.
(GUNSHOTS) VITO: Martin, right? You the second in command? Congratulations.
You just got a promotion.
I hope my terms and conditions are acceptable.
Yeah.
Good.
Let's get out of here.
It's me and my father.
It's a great picture.
I met your father.
Years ago.
How's he doing? He's had a bit of heart trouble recently, but he's doing better now.
Good.
- You work here full-time? - No.
Just got into law school.
But I deferred for a semester to help my father out while he rests.
Law school.
That's really, really nice what you're doing for your father.
It's nothing compared to what he's done for me.
Um, I Need to go check what the lunch specials are.
Um Do you need cream or sugar? (RACHEL SPEAKING FRENCH) - Did you hear? - What? The mayor's taking a few days off.
My guy on the inside said he's probably going to resign.
Let's see how it plays out.
I'll talk to you soon.
Bye.
I got somebody else.
A city engineer who says that he accepted bribes to sign off on overinflated construction budgets.
- Fantastic.
- How many is that now? That's five, just today.
You were right.
We got people running scared.
And when we're done, we'll have cleaned it all up.
We never clean it all up.
We just put a nice shine on it for a while.
Nice job.
The mayor of Montreal has had enough of the corruption allegations surrounding City Hall, and surrounding him.
Gerald Tremblay announced he's stepping down.
(BANGING) - (BANGING) - Whoa! Take it easy.
Yeah? What do you want? Hi, Lonnie.
Who are you? Do you not recognize me? Well, if I recognize you, I'm not going to go, "Who are you?" Who are you? Oh.
Holy shit.
Wanna come in? (DOOR CLOSES) - Leave it, just leave it.
- Yeah, all right.
I heard you're a big-time gangster.
- Where did you hear that? - You're a big shot.
Seen it in the papers.
I thought you were in the joint.
Got out a long time ago.
That's good.
Where you living now? - What? - Where are you living? - Montreal.
- That's good.
Thank you.
(LIGHTER CLICKS) (EXHALES) Nice car you're driving there.
Yeah.
- It's yours? - Mmm-hmm.
Well, me, I'm still the same old guy, I'm sitting here waiting for a check.
My welfare check has got to come soon because sink went haywire, of course I had to fix it.
And the dude wants a couple or 300 more from me, so I got nothing until Wednesday.
It's pretty rough, so I don't know if you Would you consider maybe Peeling off a couple? Helping me out, your old man, with a With a few bucks? Is it possible? Wow.
Probably 10 or 15 grand in here.
I make that in an afternoon.
But, no, I got nothing for you.
What? You show up out of nowhere and you're going to talk to me like a goof, you little shit? What do you want, boy? What do you want? What I wanted was to find you.
So I hired someone.
Didn't take very long.
It's funny that you're here.
And I control all the drugs in this town.
Yeah, it's funny.
Ironic.
Hey, Lonnie.
You don't mind, do you? Lonnie.
I think you should really listen to this part.
I got in touch with my distributors.
And I said to them that no one, and I mean no one, is to ever sell you drugs again.
If they do, they're dead.
And if I hear, about anyone in this shithole town, who buys drugs for you, they're dead.
As of now, you're cut off, Lonnie.
What? Why? What are you trying to do? (STUTTERS) What What is your plan here? Is it to get me clean? You want to get me clean? You want to save the day? Is that it? You a big shot coming here Well, you listen to me, now.
I don't want to get clean.
Certainly not for an old piece of shit like you.
Get clean? (CHUCKLES) I'm not here to help you get clean, Lonnie.
I'm here to help you suffer.
You gave us up.
Your children.
You gave us up.
You gave up me, and my beautiful little sister, so you could get high.
You're not going to score anymore.
Just stay here.
Because you're broke, can't leave.
Hell is going to start when you burn through your stash.
And if you ever do get clean, then I'll help you blow your brains out when you realize what an incredible piece of shit you really are.
You are a horrible, horrible waste of life.
(CAR ENGINE STARTS) Come on, little boy! You're probably still pissing your goddamn pants! Come on back! Come here and deal with me, I'll cut you over every which way, you piece of shit! Go on, little boy! We should go on vacation.
Dominican Republic.
- No.
- Hmm? Every time we go there, you either play golf the whole time, - or do business.
- No.
This time, no golf, no meetings.
We just rent a little cabana, we eat a lot, we drink too much, we sleep in the sun.
You know A real vacation.
- Yeah, a real vacation.
- Really? Yeah, I won't even bring my phone.
- Wow.
- Yeah, I know.
- It would be good, come on.
- (CELL PHONE BUZZING) Uh, hang on.
(SIGHS) Yeah.
All right.
Give me a couple minutes.
Sorry, babe.
We found him a mile from a crime scene.
Two hours north of the city.
Six bodies.
Now, City Hall's all over this.
Twenty-four-hour security and no one's allowed to talk to him.
Vito, I pulled a lot of favors to get you five minutes alone with him.
Why should I go talk to him? GILLES: He dragged himself a mile in the ground, bleeding to death.
First thing he said to me when I saw him was He needed to talk to you.
He's probably going to die, Vito.
Very soon.
Maybe you should hear him out.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR) Vito? What's going on? - You going to invite me in? - Yeah, come in.
Yeah.
- Drink? - Yeah.
You never invited me over, you know that.
Because I always go to you.
Hmm.
You got no pictures.
Family, friends.
You know, milestones.
Not a picture guy.
Hmm.
(CLEARS THROAT) Vito.
You all right? (CHUCKLES) I've been trying to figure out where I went wrong.
About how I got here.
I keep thinking back to that night.
Nico's birthday, before I was arrested.
We were taking photos, and I stood back and I saw my whole family.
From my parents to my grandkids in a house that I built.
And in that exact moment, I wanted for nothing.
The people that killed my father, my son Nothing would ever be enough for them.
For that kind of person, it's not about power, or money For that kind of person, it's about a life of filling a hole that has no bottom.
Gio's still alive.
- What? - Hmm.
We finished the job, and then he shot me.
You were a snitch, Gio.
No.
No.
(COUGHS) I could never.
Is that what he told you? Mr.
Rizzuto, how can you even think something like that about me? You were the only one who knew the drop-off points.
But you know me.
I would never do anything like that to you.
You gotta believe me.
(LABORED BREATHING) When I was laying out there in the woods, I thought I was going to die.
(RETCHING) But, I thought, "No, I can't.
" So I crawled back to you.
I crawled because I wasn't going to die, before I could tell you (INHALES) Tell me what? He wasn't the mole.
You were.
(CHUCKLES) Gio's lying.
He's lying if he's still alive.
He knew you'd kill him anyway if he didn't make up shit.
I knew there was no way that Gio would ever, ever turn against me.
I should have followed my gut.
But you You knew exactly how to work me.
I just want to know.
Did Sal get to you before or after they killed my son? Hmm? Was it before or was it after? - Was it before or was it after? - Neither.
They didn't approach me.
I approached them.
I went to them.
SAL: So, you want to work with us? DECLAN: I do.
You've taken out Vito's kid, his old man, that's not going to give you everything you want.
Vito Rizzuto's more than just a name.
You want to take down the entire operation, you're going to need someone on the inside.
What'd Vito do to you? What'd he do to you? They killed my son.
They killed my son! Everybody we've ever killed was somebody's son, Vito.
What makes your pain more important than theirs? Who are you? - Huh? - I never knew.
I never had anyone until I had you.
You welcomed me home, you said, "I'll never forget it.
" Your son, I tried to protect him, God as my witness.
And your father, I loved him.
I loved him and he loved me.
I was family.
Like you always told me I was.
And then You told me the real truth.
I was just an employee.
Just on the payroll.
I did everything for you.
I spent four years in prison, unprotected, for what? For what? A job? I can do your job.
I don't know why I didn't see it before.
You're a frigging animal.
You hired a gangster.
You surprised I'm better at it than you? Wanna kill me? Go ahead.
Or else, get out.
(SPITS) (DOOR CLOSES) I can cancel if you want.
It's just a dinner with friends.
No.
You go.
I'll be fine, you know.
I wanna I want to be alone, anyway.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
- I won't be late.
- All right.
(CLEARS THROAT) (EXHALES) Happy birthday, my son.
DECLAN: We got a deal, Sal? But you're not on the inside.
He froze you out.
I mean, what kind of partner are you going to be if they're not even talking to you? I know how to get back in.
Him.
I'm going to need your boy.
BRUNO: You should build yourself something nice.
No, I like it, just the way it is.
Quiet, nice, cheap.
- (GUN FIRING) - (GLASS SHATTERS) BRUNO: Holy shit! They tried to wipe out the family.
Including you.
You're one of us.
DECLAN: And once I'm back in, I'll get Vito to do the work for us.
What do you think? I think we should clear the whole goddamn board.
Kill them all.
No one left but us.
Hmm.
Now we're going to dismantle operations.
Vito and his businesses, we're going to start tearing them apart.
Little by little by little.
I'm going to start giving you our drop points.
There's a farm, down by the Vermont border.
(GUN FIRING) - Stash house in Little Burgundy.
- (DOOR CRASHING) - What? What the - Don't move.
- Easy, easy.
- Okay.
Okay.
Everything's working just fine.
But now I've got to give him a mole.
Which means I've got to sacrifice a pawn.
How far are we going to take this? DECLAN: All the way.
(GUN FIRING) And the coup de grace.
DECLAN: I'll take care of that.
(ENGINES REVVING) Hey, man.
Mmm-hmm.
- Good to see you, brother.
- You, too.
- It was a good month.
- Yeah, they all are.
- MARTIN: Yeah.
- You guys, uh - Want to stay for beer? - No can do.
We've got an initiation ceremony for two new recruits.
So I'll be out of touch for a few days.
- See ya.
- Salut.
(BIRDS SQUAWKING) - (GUN FIRING) - (GLASS BREAKING)
