WE WERE TRYIN' TO BE BIG MEN ON THE

WE WAS THE FOUR. UNSTOPPABLE.

WE DIDN'T NEED NO
SANTO. HE NEEDED US.

WIFE ALL BY YOUR LONESOME.

[Snickers]

HUH? EDDIE?

THIS IS THE EXACT KIND OF
NAIL POLISH I BOUGHT LAST YEAR.

IT WAS A GIFT FOR MOMMY.

IT'S STILL WRAPPED UP AT HOME.

I HATE CHRISTMAS.

BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LITTLE

I WANNA SEE HIM.

THEY'RE MEETING OVER

YEAH. OF COURSE.
THANKS, DAD. BYE.

BYE. [Man] MR. BLACK?

SHERIFF EARL PARKER.

COKER CREEK LAW ENFORCEMENT'S HONORED
TO HAVE A MAN OF YOUR REPUTATION IN TOWN.

THANK YOU. IT'S A NICE
TOWN. ESPECIALLY SINCE

I'VE GOT SOMETHING I
COULD USE ADVICE ON.

I'M HERE WITH MY DAUGHTER,
SHERIFF. JUST 10 MINUTES OF YOUR TIME,

SIR, WHILE YOUR DAUGHTER'S
CHASING LITTLE FOOT.

I WOULDN'T ASK IF IT
WASN'T IMPORTANT.

MR. RYAN, THE SHERIFF WAS HOPING YOU
COULD TELL US WHOSE COAT YOU WERE WEARING.

SIXTEEN BULLET HOLES, JUDGING FROM THE
POWDER RESIDUE, SHOT AT VERY CLOSE RANGE.

WHAT HAPPENED?

WHAT HAPPENED WAS
I WAS HUNTIN' DEER...

WAY UP IN THE YUCCAFLAW FOREST.

I TRACKED THIS BEAUTIFUL
BLACK-TAILED DEER PRETTY FAR IN.

MERRY CHRISTMAS.

I SHOULD MENTION... I KNOW
NOW THAT HUNTIN' IS WRONG,

ESPECIALLY OUTTA SEASON.

- [Scoffs]
- MR. RYAN, WHAT HAPPENED?

- I WAS ATTACKED BY A WOLF.
- [Wolf Growling]

[Ryan Screaming]

- FATALLY.
- WHAT ARE YOU SAYING? YOU DIED?

I FELT DEATH MOVE INTO MY BODY.

NONE OF YOUR SHIRLEY MacLAINE,
"HEAD TOWARDS THE LIGHT" CRAP EITHER.

YOU JUST GET REAL COLD.

MM-HMM. WELL, YOU LOOK FINE.

SURE. 'CAUSE AFTER THE COLD...

THAT'S WHEN THE
WEIRD PART HAPPENED.

♪♪ [Operatic Vocalizing]

I OPEN MY EYES, AND I'M IN
SOME KIND OF CAVE, I GUESS.

I'M STILL COLD, BUT
I'M NOT DEAD ANYMORE.

[Grunting]

IT WAS FILLED WITH
THIS FEMININE ENERGY.

I KNOW THAT SOUNDS ALL NEW
AGEY, BUT THAT'S WHAT IT WAS.

FEMININE ENERGY.

I TRIED TO GET UP,
BUT IT HELD ME DOWN.

- [Sheriff] THE FEMININE ENERGY?
- YEAH.

TELL YOU THE TRUTH...
BEST I EVER FELT.

THIS FEMININE
PRESENCE... MM-HMM?

- DID IT SAY ANYTHING?
- NO.

[Ryan] OH, WELL, MAYBE.

YEAH. NOW THAT I THINK OF IT,
THERE WAS THIS VOICE, SAYS...

[Eddie] HOW'D THE
YANKEES MAKE OUT?

[Frank] THIS FEMININE PRESENCE ASKED
YOU HOW THE YANKEES DID? [Ryan] YEAH.

[Frank] AND WHAT DID YOU SAY? [Ryan] I
TOLD HIM THEY SWEPT THE PADRES IN FOUR.

AND WHERE DID THE
COAT COME FROM, AL?

- I DON'T KNOW.
- AL.

I DON'T KNOW.

THIS IS IT. SEE? I WAS
WAY OFF THE BEATEN PATH.

THE DEER WAS OVER THERE. I
WALKED TOWARDS... OH, MY GOD.

THERE IT IS. IT
HAPPENED RIGHT THERE.

[Frank Whispers, Indistinct]

THIS IS THE KILL ZONE.

HOLD HIM.

- THE TEETH MARKS. THE MONEY LEFT BEHIND.
- [Sheriff] THAT'S HIM.

- IT WAS PROBABLY
AN ANIMAL ATTACK.
- THERE'S NOT A SCRATCH ON HIM.

- BUT I WAS HERE, LIKE I SAID.
- SOMEONE DRAGGED THE BODY
UP THAT WAY.

THAT WAS ME... MY BODY.

SOMEONE'S UP THERE.

♪♪ [Operatic Vocalizing]

[Frank] HEY!

[Sheriff] DON'T MOVE! LITTLE FOOT, OR
WHOEVER YOU ARE, YOU'RE UNDER ARREST.

I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! POLICE
BRUTALITY! POLICE BRUTALITY!

I'M GONNA SUE.

- POLICE BRUTALITY! POLICE BRUTALITY!
- SHUT UP. GET ON YOUR FEET.

YEAH. SURE. WHAT ELSE YOU
GONNA DO? POLICE BRUTALITY!

[Bell Rings, Stops]

[Kids Chattering] [Girl]
DO YOU LIKE MINE?

[Girl #2] YEAH. [Clerk]
HELLO. [Man] HI.

[Man] IT'S A LITTLE BIT LATER THAN
WE SAID. DO YOU HAVE A RESERVATION?

YES.

HEY, JORDAN. HI.

- OH. MERRY CHRISTMAS, FRANK.
- [Frank] MERRY CHRISTMAS.

TELL ME ABOUT THE MAN
WE FOUND: EDDIE GIANNINI.

SANTO FAMILY HIT MAN. YOU
DON'T KNOW HIS REPUTATION?

I DON'T KNOW MUCH
ABOUT ORGANIZED CRIME.

EDDIE SCARPINO GIANNINI.

HE WAS THE TOP ASSASSIN
FOR THE SANTO CRIME

ORGANIZATION. FIFTY-ONE
NOTCHES IN HIS BELT.

HE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD,
GONE THE WAY OF JIMMY HOFFA.

THESE THREE MEN CONFESSED TO
THE MURDER. THEY'VE BEEN DOING TIME.

SO WHAT NOW? DO THEY
WALK? ALREADY RELEASED.

BUT IT GETS WORSE. THEIR CONFESSIONS ARE
WHAT BROUGHT DOWN THE SANTO ORGANIZATION.

EVERYTHING UNRAVELS NOW THAT EDDIE'S
ALIVE. THE BUREAU IS IN FULL PANIC MODE.

THEY'VE GOT ALL THEIR FIRST-STRING
ORGANIZED CRIME AGENTS ASSIGNED TO THIS.

WHAT DOES "SCARPINO" MEAN?

"SMALL SHOES." IT'S AN INSULTING
REFERENCE TO HIS TINY FEET.

SEE YOU OVER THERE.

[Sighs]

MR. BLACK, THIS IS JONATHAN
POLGREEN, LEAD PROSECUTOR...

ON THE ORIGINAL
SANTO FAMILY CASE.

YOU'RE THE ONE WHO
BROUGHT EDDIE IN, RIGHT?

YES, I AM. I SPENT
YEARS ON THIS CASE.

I ALWAYS IMAGINED WHAT IT
WOULD BE LIKE TO TALK TO SCARPINO.

THIS IS GONNA BE FUN.

I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO
THIS. DON'T GET SMART WITH ME, EDDIE.

NO, REALLY. I AM.

YOU RECOGNIZE
THESE PEOPLE? SURE.

THIS IS FAT SAL, AND THIS IS
BENNY THE MECHANIC, RIGHT?

FAT SAL WAS A HELL OF A SINGER.

HE MIGHT'VE PLAYED THE
LOUNGES OR EVEN THE BIG ROOM...

IF HIS LUCK HAD
BROKEN THE OTHER WAY.

AND THE MECHANIC I DIDN'T KNOW TOO
WELL, BUT HE SEEMED LIKE A DECENT GUY.

- WHO KILLED THEM?
- ME.

I SHOT BOTH OF THEM.

I MEAN, I REALIZE NOW
HOW WRONG THAT WAS,

BUT UNFORTUNATELY
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.

- WHAT ELSE YOU WANNA KNOW?
- YOUR FRIENDS
PINNED 51 MURDERS ON YOU.

[Scoffs] THOSE GUYS!
IT'S MORE LIKE 27.

I MADE A LIST FOR YOU. I APOLOGIZE
IN ADVANCE ABOUT THE SPELLING.

HAS HE BEEN MIRANDIZED?
SEVERAL TIMES.

AND YOU DON'T WANT A LAWYER? HE
WOULD JUST TELL ME TO KEEP MY MOUTH SHUT.

VINCENTE SANTO ORDERED
THESE EXECUTIONS, DIDN'T HE?

I TAKE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY
FOR WHAT I'VE DONE.

I DON'T WANNA BRING
SANTO OR ANYBODY INTO THIS.

WHAT'S YOUR RUSE, EDDIE?

A RUSE IS IF I SAID I WAS IN
CHURCH SAYIN' MY PRAYERS.

I'M TRYIN' TO HELP YOU OUT HERE,
CAPISCE? YOU FAKED YOUR OWN DEATH.

THREE WISEGUYS PLEA-BARGAINED
TO A SINGLE MURDER CHARGE... YOURS...

IN EXCHANGE FOR TESTIMONY WHICH LET
US PUT AWAY SANTO AND HIS TOP SOLDIERS.

BUT THEN YOU REAPPEAR.
THE WHOLE CASE FALLS APART.

AND THAT'S HOW SANTO AND ALL
HIS SOLDIERS GET OUT OF PRISON.

YOU SEE, THIS HERE IS WHY NO ONE
COOPERATES WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT!

DO YOU REALIZE THAT THESE CRIMES
LEAD DIRECTLY TO THE DEATH PENALTY?

THERE ARE WORSE
THINGS THAN THAT.

THERE ARE?

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN
FOR THE LAST NINE YEARS?

VEGAS. HAWAII. BUNCH OF PLACES.

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?

NOWHERE.

[Murmuring]

EDDIE? DO YOU MIND
IF I CALL YOU EDDIE?

JUST DON'T CALL ME SCARPINO.

EDDIE, WHAT ABOUT YOUR OVERCOAT?

WHAT OVERCOAT? THE ONE
WITH THE 16 BULLET HOLES IN IT,

ACCORDING TO OUR LABS.

IT'S COVERED WITH YOUR
BLOOD TYPE, AND THE

MAN WE FOUND WEARING
IT, WHO LED US TO YOU...

LOOK, I THOUGHT WE WERE GONNA TALK
ABOUT ALL THE CITIZENS THAT I KILLED.

HE SAID HE WAS MAULED BY A WOLF, BUT
LIKE YOU, HE LOOKS IN REALLY GOOD SHAPE.

WELL, THAT'S CRAZY.
WHAT'S IN THE WOODS, EDDIE?

COME ON.

DON'T GO THERE. IT'S GOT
NOTHIN' TO DO WITH... ANYTHING.

IT'S... YOU GO THERE,
YOU'RE GONNA REGRET IT.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

N... WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

IT IS NOT ABOUT ME.

IT'S NOT ABOUT SANTO. IT'S...

I'M TRYING TO PROTECT SOMETHING.

EDDIE TRIED TO STEER US AWAY.

HE LET HIMSELF BE CAUGHT. YEAH.
UNDER THE GUISE OF LITTLE FOOT.

HE TRIED TO DRAW US AWAY FROM
SOMETHING HE DIDN'T WANT US TO SEE.

WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE TO YOU?

LET'S TAKE A LOOK.

- NO.

DR. RICE SAYS THAT THEY'RE
IN EXTREMELY GOOD HEALTH,

EVEN PSYCHOLOGICALLY,
SO FAR AS HE CAN TELL.

THEY JUST SEEM TO HAVE
LOST THE ABILITY TO SPEAK.

COULD THEY BE REFUSING
TO TALK? FAKING IT? MAYBE.

THERE HAVE BEEN A HANDFUL OF CASES
OF OTHERWISE INTELLIGENT PEOPLE...

WHO HAVE LOST THE
ABILITY FOR LANGUAGE.

AND DECEMBER 23, 1989.

PAOLO CAPRICE TESTIFIED THEY
SHOT EDDIE DECEMBER 20 OF THAT YEAR.

SHE DREW THIS IN 20
SECONDS FROM MEMORY. WOW.

WHAT DO YOU SUPPOSE THEY ARE?

YOU HAVE SOME IDEA,
THOUGH, DON'T YOU?

TO BEGIN WITH, THEY'RE
GREAT WITNESSES.

TO WHAT? NO ONE IS
DEAD. ATTEMPTED MURDER.

CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT MURDER.

I SPENT FIVE YEARS OF
MY LIFE BRINGING DOWN

THE SANTO FAMILY. I'M
NOT GONNA LET THAT...

FALL APART BECAUSE EDDIE
GIANINNI TURNS UP ALIVE.

THEY CAN'T BE WITNESSES.
THEY CAN BARELY SPEAK.

"YES" AND "NO"...
THAT'S ALL I NEED.

- THEY'VE HAD ALMOST NO CONTACT
WITH CIVILIZATION.
- I'LL GET 'EM A SOCIAL WORKER.

YOU'LL DESTROY
THEM. THEY'LL BE FINE.

THEY WILL, HUH?

DOES EDDIE KNOW ABOUT THIS?

HE'S GONE. WHAT?

WE HAD SOME DELAYS
IN FILING THE MURDER

CHARGES BECAUSE THE
CASES WERE ALREADY CLEARED.

THEY WERE HOLDING HIM ON A
VAGRANCY CHARGE IN THE MEANTIME.

KEEP ME IN THE LOOP FROM NOW
ON, AGENT HOLLIS. IS THAT CLEAR?

YES, SIR.

- WHAT HAPPENED?
- A LOCAL JUDGE DIDN'T KNOW
THE WHOLE STORY AND SET BAIL.

EDDIE'S PROBABLY A
MILLION MILES AWAY BY NOW.

HE'S BEEN TRYING TO PROTECT
SOMETHING; THAT HASN'T CHANGED.

- SCARPINO?
- WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT
CALLIN' ME THAT?

WHAT ARE YOU DESTROYING? I DON'T WANT
ANYONE TO MAKE A LINK BETWEEN THEM...

AND MY OLD LIFE.

YOU'RE PROTECTING

HE WANTS TO PUT THEM INTO WITNESS

IF SANTO EVEN HAS A
DREAM THAT THEY'RE

GONNA TESTIFY, THEN...
THEN THEY'RE HISTORY.

WHAT HAVE YOU TOLD

EVERYTHING. I WAS JUST BABBLING.
I WAS JUST GETTIN' IT OFF MY CHEST.
