for flirting with his kid brother . . .
Helen: "You can get away with
murder, but you can't pull that stuff on me!"
Scarsi: "Lay off this kid, you dirty little gold digger!
He's not in the racket - and he's not going to be!"

At the nightclub, McQuigg
delights in telling Scarsi that his right-hand man, Chick, won't
be coming - he's in jail. At that moment, to McQuigg's surprise,
Chick walks up with a very smug look on his face. Scarsi can't
help but laugh. "All right, Nick. That's a horse on me."
says McQuigg. |

Nick's connections in city hall
get McQuigg assigned to a small burg on the outskirts of the
city. When one of the reporters questions if he's scared of Scarsi,
McQuigg angrily tells the reporters, "I'm here because
Nick's afraid of me. Find him. Tell him. Tell him I told you
so."

"I'm not afraid of
anybody. I'm laying off of McQuigg until after the election!
So, if you see that copper, tell him that!" Scarsi tells the reporters. |
|
Although McQuigg doesn't
realize it's Nick's little brother -- Joe, is arrested for hit
and run in McQuigg's little burg. |

Helen tells him to shut up,
but Ames, a cub reporter, goes ahead and tells McQuigg that the
man he has arrested is Scarsi's brother. |
