I recon the economics are a bit different
when you share a bed with the Mayor.
[laughter]
- Don't be ridiculous.
There will be no favors.
Everyone will be held to the same standard.
- I don't care which side of your mouth you're using
out there on the street,
making political promises to the Workingmen and such,
but in here,
let's all understand each other.
Chinese labor is the only thing that keeps this city afloat,
and any mayor who doesn't grasp that
is gonna be out of a job.
- Well, Lymon,
as always, I appreciate your counsel.
Misguided though it may be.
- If you think I'm misguided, Samuel,
go home and seek counsel from your wife.
[laughter]
Perhaps she should be the one running the city.

You surprised me.

- Did you really think I wouldn't find out
about your little deal with Merriweather?
- I can't do this right now.
- He and his friends had a good laugh
telling me all about it.
- You pulled your orders.
I had to make another deal to save my company.
- I've been living on a knife's edge
for the past six months,
and all you care about is a company
that should have died with your father.
- You're drunk.
I'm going to bed.
You can sleep it off down here.

You're gonna piss away my career and our future
over a second-rate foundry just to prove some damn point?

- Crestwood offers a direct line to the presidency.
He could send me right into the governorship,
and from there, who knows?

You never told me anything about this.
- Why should I?
When you spend your every waking moment
trying to undermine me?
- Samuel, listen--
- If it weren't for me, you and your sisters
would be begging in the streets.
So you're gonna call off your deal with Merriweather
and sell him the damn company.
At a loss, if you have to.
- I'd be playing right into his hands.
That's exactly what he wants.

I'm through indulging this misguided fantasy of yours!

It'll solve both our problems.

MAN: Congratulations, Mr. Mayor.
City is yours.
Did you kill your husband?
It all happened so quickly.
(BOTH GRUNTING, SCREAMING)
The Chinaman killed the mayor. We take that sort of thing personally.
MAN: 2: China Town is closed. Effective immediately.
MAN 3: My men will not stop tearing this place apart.
I don't care who sent you.
-(GRUNTS) -I said go! (SCREAMS)
Please, help me.
