F / 5300 Richard rushes in.
YANG RICHARD
Let her go!
Richard gets into the scuffle, wrestling with Wolf until
Maxine is freed.
YANG WOLF
This isn't your business.
YANG RICHARD
It is now. What I heard is very interesting
indeed.
YANG WOLF
You know what a dingaling she is.
YANG RICHARD
I'm more interested in what you are.
YANG WOLF
What do you mean?
YANG RICHARD
What you are in relationship to Nick DiMarco,
for example.
YANG WOLF
Hey, if you heard that stuff she was saying,
it's not true, it's all her loony imagination.
YANG RICHARD
Maybe. Maybe not. His death was suspicious
-- especially considering what he was up to.
YANG WOLF
Don't expect me to know what you're talking
about.
YANG RICHARD
I think you do. He was dealing drugs. In
fact, he'd joined the church for the sole
purpose of using it as a basis for a
widespread cocaine operation. Unfortunately,
some leaked to the police and brought the
whole business to light before we could police
the matter ourselves. Then someone eliminated
Nick -- quickly, cleanly. Why? There's only
one reason that makes sense to me -- to take
over his operation.
YANG WOLF
This is crazy.
YANG RICHARD
If you murdered him, then you're running what
the media has come to call cokescam.
YANG WOLF
I hardly knew him.
YIN MAXINE
He did it, I saw him, I witnessed it with my
own eyes, I--!
YANG WOLF
She's in a fantasy world!
YIN MAXINE
He bribed me to try to shut me up, that's how
much I saw!
YANG WOLF
I feel sorry for you, lady. She needs a
shrink, man, she's way out there in the ozone.
YANG RICHARD
Then that's too bad.
YANG WOLF
Too bad for her, right.
YANG RICHARD
Too bad for you. If she was telling the
truth, if you really were running cokescam, I
could make you a very attractive offer.
YANG WOLF
Well, I can't help you.
YANG RICHARD
I could make it very much worth your while to
keep doing what you're doing -- with one small
condition attached. That we settle this thing
once and for all, in the current court case,
by providing a scapegoat, by convicting
someone and cleaning the slate, so to speak.
In which case, of course, your cover would be
more secure than ever -- if, of course, you
were involved in all this, and how
disappointed I am that you're not.
YIN MAXINE
Of course he is!
YANG WOLF
I don't understand this scapegoat stuff.
YANG RICHARD
In defending the case, I've come to realize
how little chance I have. But if someone in
the church were offered to satisfy the Federal
appetite, a bad apple so to speak -- it would
clear the church's good name, would it not?
And it would leave you, or whoever it is, to
run your business in a new atmosphere of --
well, now and again we call it "religious
tranquility." In primitive balance, you might
say. Without all the hassle and tension we
have now.
YANG WOLF
Why are you telling me all this?
YANG RICHARD
I think you know why. What do you say?
YANG WOLF
Can we talk about this alone?
YANG RICHARD
Certainly. Yin Maxine, do you mind?
YIN MAXINE
He did it.
YANG RICHARD
I appreciate your opinion.
She leaves, going to C. /ex11/ TIME CODE: 55:00
