Stephen Kasai: Mr. Cain, your dossier indicates that you have a knowledge of the Far East, an ability to recognise Oriental art and a capacity for thoroughness. You'll be paid $10,000. You have 72 hours. By then, we want to know who killed Tony Grinaldi.
Johnny Cain: It's no good. I'm through with that.
Stephen Kasai: You're not through, Mr Cain.
[he presses a button on the phone]
Stephen Kasai: . This committee is aware of your past, your ability, your association with the Far East. That, along with the circumstances of Grinaldi's death in your establishment, places you in the arena of those who are guilty until proved innocent. We're giving you three days to do it.
Johnny Cain: No.
Stephen Kasai: [the phone beeps and he pick up the handset] Chicago? West. We wish to issue a contract: $10,000; initiate in 72 hours from this time unless you hear personally from a member of our group. The subject is the proprietor of Mr. C's Restaurant in this city. His name is John Cain. C-A-I-N. Thank you.
[he hangs up]
Stephen Kasai: You'll do it, Mr. Cain, or you'll be dead. This is Friday. You have until Sunday.
Johnny Cain: [he gets up] It's all arranged, huh?
Stephen Kasai: Yes, it is.
Johnny Cain: Nobody forces me.
Stephen Kasai: Mr. Cain, I suggest you defer your decision until you've further evaluated the alternatives. Anything less than that would be unintelligent. The offer we made still stands.
Johnny Cain: And so will your order for a killer?
Stephen Kasai: Of course.
Johnny Cain: He'd better be good, Kasai. Somebody moves for me, I'll kill him. And I'll come for you. All of you.
Stephen Kasai: Should be an interesting weekend, Mr Cain.
