05x13 - Without Reservations

[bunniefuu]

What are we doing here?

What're we waiting for?

Patience, B.A.

Face, hold still.

Boy, these mosquitoes
are K*llers.

- Get him?
- Yeah.

Look at the size of that sucker.

Unbelievable.

- Do you know thewords to...
- What?

♪ You are my sunshine, ♪
♪ my only sunshine ♪

♪ You make me happy ♪
♪ when skies are grey ♪

Shut up! What's that noise?

Sounds like a jeep.

Sounds like a supercharged jeep.

Sounds like an airplane to me.

Well, it's probably
the guerilla's airplane.

If that's Murdock, I'm not getting
in the air with that crazy sucker.

B.A., you really,
really have to lighten up

on this paranoia
you have about flying.

Hold still, B.A.

Got him!

That's a monster.

Look at that.

Thanks, Hannibal.

- It's okay, pal.
- Right.

Why does he always
fall on the horn?

Beats me.

Shall we?

I love to crash parties.

Is he down yet?

Almost.

Attaboy, Murdock.

Ladies and gentleman,
the captain has just turned on

the no smoking
and fasten your seatbelt sign

for taxiing and take off.

Please make sure that your seats are
in the upright and forward position

and that your table trays
are secured in front of you.

Please sit back
and enjoy your flight.

Go, Murdock!

You were lucky, gentlemen.
Next time be careful.

Now, our operative
in Buenos Aires...

Hold it, Stockwell,
we just got back.

Well, there's this matter
in South America...

Forget it, man. I ain't
rescuing nobody tonight.

I got a football game to watch.

And Face, he almost got k*lled.

Well, the sooner
you pull off these missions,

the sooner you'll get
your pardon.

It's called
the Stockwell lncentive Plan.

Now I can tell you what you can
do with your plan, Stockwell.

All right. You men do look
a little weary.

No assignments for a week.

Very generous.

You live with the risks,
you live with the rewards.

We'll take two weeks off
and tonight

and nobody watching us.

All right.

You men have been more than
honorable in our arrangement.

Perhaps a relaxation of the
surveillance procedure is in order.

Enjoy yourselves.

Well done, Captain.

Right.

Face? Face, could I borrow
a white shirt?

I need another one.
This one's pretty ripe.

- Yeah, I guess so. I'll get it for you.
- Thanks.

Hey, fool, what's
with the crazy outfit?

I like that vest.

You know,
this is my new waiter's outfit

for the restaurant Villa Cucina.

Murdock,
how are the tips coming?

You know, it's not bad,
not bad at all.

But the food is free,
all I can eat.

I want it back, okay?
Laundered.

Word of honor.

Seems like a whole lot of trouble
just for a lousy waiter's job.

No, no, no.

Being a waiter can be very
satisfying and can be very lucrative.

As a matter of fact,
if you get one of the jobs

in the finer restaurants
in Washington DC,

you can make up
to $100,000 a year.

Mostly in unreported cash.

I would never cheat
the government.

Not after all they did for me.

And this joint that hired you

is one of Washington's
finer restaurants?

It's a good place to start.

It's small, it's cozy,
the food is good...

Hey, Hannibal, B.A.,
why don't you come on down tonight

as a relaxing evening?
You deserve it.

Forget it, man.

Tonight is Monday Night
football! Redskins-Cowboys!

- Sorry, Murdock, I got a date.
- Bring her.

We were thinking more
of a quiet evening at home.

She's a great Redskin fan.

Faceman, Frankie,
why don't you come on down?

This is the dinner
I promised you, come on.

I don't know, Murdock.

It's gonna be bueno gusto.

So, the food's good, Murdock?
It's excellent.

What do you recommend?

Well, the chicken's real good,
the veal's real good.

Anything you want,
it's real good.

I thought you said
it was excellent?

I said it's real good.

How come you don't have
valet parking?

I mean, you think my car is
safe on the streets around here?

A 1976 Cutlass Supreme,
you kidding?

Probably the only car that's
safe in a neighborhood like this.

That car is a classic, man.
Don't be making fun of a classic.

Bueno gusto, gentlemen.
I'll get your orders later.

We're short a waiter and a cook.

Every Monday the same thing.

The football, she goes on,
the customer, she stays home.

Along with my employees.

Boss, you want...

If you want I'll cover
this whole room for you.

You're gonna have to.

I pitch in if we get a crowd.

You got it, boss.

What about the pizzas, Papa? How am
I gonna make pies and dinner, too?

Yeah, yeah. Hey, H.M.,
you ever make the pizza?

Are you kidding me? I was
raised in a pizza joint.

There's your pizza man,
if we get the rush.

Okay.

I'll take a table for two.

I could seat you right now.

In a couple of minutes.

Why don't you come over
and sit with me?

No thanks, I'm busy.

What about later?
I'm from out of town.

Maybe you wouldn't mind
showing me around.

I don't think so.

If you change your mind,
I'll be right here.

Okay.

Welcome to Villa Cucina.

Would you care for some drinks
this evening before dinner?

I'll have a vodka rocks and
a bloody mary for the lady.

I think I'll just have a
club soda with lemon, please.

Very well.

What's the matter?
Are you okay?

Yeah. I'm fine.

Nothing's the matter.

Stephen, I know you.
Something's bothering you.

Can we just have dinner?

The reason I wanted
to go to dinner

was because I could tell
something was bothering you.

You didn't even
turn on the game.

I just...
I'd rather not talk about it.

Club soda,
vodka on the rocks, boss.

You know, I think you ought to get
a color TV to put above the bar.

That way you get your
customers back Monday night.

You know, I like you, kid.
You got a good idea.

Tell you what,

you find a nice color TV for
about 50 bucks, then we talk.

Hey, Tommy!

Hiya, Sallie.
How goes the business?

Oh, great.

I ought to close up on Mondays.

How goes the w*r?

Well, we still haven't
caught those punks.

I tell you, we fix up
the neighborhood,

we clean up the buildings
and what do we get,

burglars problem.

You can't win.

Hey, H.M.,
when you get a second,

please check on the pizza
for my friend, Tommy, eh?

You got it, boss.

Don't rush, kid.

Have a seat, relax,
and take it easy.

You got a pizza for Henderson?

Grab it out of the oven,
would you?

Do I know you?

I don't think so.

Are you guys from around here?

Langley, actually.

I seen you somewhere.

Well, this my first time
at Villa Cucina.

No, no, no, no, I've seen
your picture hanging somewhere.

I got it.

On the wall
at Doug Thompson's bar.

Ain't you Doug Thompson's kid
that went to college?

Oh, no, I never went to college.

Why, you're sure a
dead ringer for his kid.

- Really?
- I could have sworn it.

I see.

- Well, enjoy your meal.
- Thank you.

Later.

Not bad. You cook?

Nope. Just pizza.

Maybe you could
teach me, though.

Maybe.

Here you go,
pepperoni and sausage.

Mmm. Heaven.

- Let me pay you for this, Sal.
- No!

Your money's no good here.

Hey, no tell Gina.

Here you go.
Thanks, kid.

Thank you.

Enjoy.

That figures.

I got one waiter,
now we get the crowd.

How long have you been here?

Forever.

How's it look?

It's good.
Kitchen at the back.

There's no window
in the men's room.

It's just an old man,
some goofball waiter

and this great looking chick
in the kitchen. Wow.

I hope you didn't drool
all over the table

and draw attention to yourself.

Good evening, gentleman.

Can I get you a couple
of drinks before dinner?

Couple of beers.

Okay, right away.

What kind of beer
would you like?

Whatever you got.

Just a couple of drafts.

Couple of drafts.

Draw up two, boss.

You see these two guys
behind me in the suits...

Don't look! Don't look!

- What, big tippers?
- No, they're big hitters.

The guy in the dark suit's
wearing a .357 magnum.

How do you know
it's a .357...

Because I've seen you
with a .357.

Look, there've been some robberies
in this neighborhood lately.

I think these guys are getting
ready to come down on this place.

Maybe they're cops.

No, cops don't dress like that.

Look, you got
to help us out here.

Well, look, I...

- Excuse me, gentlemen.
- Excuse me, H.M.

The guy on the one,
he wants to order.

Right. Right.
Those two guys on nine,

have you seen them before?

No. I've never
seen them before. Why?

I just thought... I just
thought I had recognized them.

- I had waited on them before.
- Thank you.

There he goes, there he goes,
there he is.

What, that guy?
That's the one.

Oh.

What do you want me to do, go ask him
if he's gonna rob the place? I mean...

You know what to do.

You got to do it, please. I
really don't want Sal to get hurt.

All right.

Go get him, Faceman.
Thank you.

Hey, Murdock, where's my salad?

Some service.

Here, here, here, let
me give you a hand there.

- That's okay.
- Yeah.

- I got it.
- Nice threads.

Yeah. Thank you.

What a dump.

Gee.

So?

Joseph Baroni. Chicago.

He doesn't have a badge nor does he
have a permit for that g*n he's carrying.

Thank you.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

What are we gonna do?

Well, we could get
that cop back.

No, no, no,
we can't wait till then.

We got to make a move to
take these guys out ourselves.

Waiter.

Look, I'll be right back.

You got to think of a way
to neutralize these guys.

You've got to.

Your secretary?

You mean, you've been carrying
on with her all this time?

Robin, would you
please calm down?

May I have the check, please?

Waiter, would you get me
a cab, please?

Robin...

What do you think?

All right. All right, guys.
Here's the plan, all right?

I'll return the guy's wallet.

Murdock, you spill a beer
on him, okay?

Frankie, you grab
the other guy...

No, no, wait, Murdock,
you grab the other guy.

All right, we got it, we got it.

- I think Frankie should...
- Let's go. Let's go.

- Right now?
- No, after pasta.

Yes, right now.
I'll get the beers.

All right, all right.

- Excuse me.
- Robin.

Excuse me, gentlemen,

but I believe you left this
in the men's room.

Oh, yeah.

Face! Face!

Oh, man. You're gonna be
okay. You're gonna be okay.

Who are you?

Get a doctor.

Who are you?

We got to get out of here. I mean,
somebody must have heard the sh*ts.

- The cops are gonna be here.
- Calm down.

Nobody leaves. The hit
goes down as planned.

Who the hell are you?

This guy's a Fed. I'm telling
you, this guy's a Fed.

- We got to call it off.
- Nothing is being called off, Joey.

Check that guy out.

Angelo, take her back
into the kitchen.

Make sure
the back door's locked.

- Come on.
- Don't touch my daughter.

Don't even think about it, Pops.

My name is Stephen Dorian. I'm an
attorney. I don't even carry a...

Shut up!
This guy's clean.

Then you'll let us go?

What's your name?

Robin Dorian.

All right, Robin Dorian,
you take your husband here,

you sit him down at the
table, you eat your dinner

and keep your mouth shut.

You do that, you'll live
to see your kids again.

Get back by the register.

Drag this hero back
to the kitchen.

Waiter, fix up these tables.

Make sure that this place
looks like nothing happened.

Move him!

This man needs a doctor.
He's lost a lot of blood.

So, he bleeds.
Get him into the kitchen!

Come here. Come here.

I'm telling you,
they're working for Liebster.

I mean, it was a pro move.

This one sets me up, the
other one goes for my piece.

I mean, come on,
what do you think this is?

This ain't no waiter and a couple
of guys in the corner table.

All right, shut up!
Who are you?

I'm a waiter.

I work here. It's my job.

I thought you guys came
in here to rob the place.

H.M. Murdock.
No badge, nothing.

Fix him up.

Have you got a g*n
in this place?

Do you have a g*n?

No. No.

I hope you're not lying to me.

All right.

We have a nice,
honest relationship, hmm?

Anybody calls,
you got no tables.

If anybody calls for
pizza, the oven's broke.

Yes, yes.

How many you expecting tonight?

Maybe some walk-in.

We got no more reservation,
but one.

Yeah, we know about him.

When the attorney general
arrives,

you seat him at the front
table near the window.

You try to tip him off,
you're the first one to eat it.

Do you have any tablecloths?

Yeah, in the closet.
I'll get them.

I'll get them.

Frankie.

How bad is it?

I've seen worse accidents
on the set.

Can you get a chair?

Please, keep his head
and his back on the ground

and his legs elevated.
Here.

Lots of pressure
on the wound here.

Keep pressure
on the wound at all times.

They want food on the tables
out there like nothing happened.

Who are you guys?
Who are you?

I'm just a waiter.

Just keep breathing.
That's it.

Is he that guy?

You know, you're just
one step away

from being in the same condition

as that man is
in the other room.

I'm shaking in my boots.

Fix the tables, waiter.

There's no sign of any cops yet.

I can't believe it.

These men are just gonna sit here
until the attorney general walks in,

then they're gonna k*ll him
right here in my place!

You got a g*n in your place?

Under the reservation book.

Would you care
for another drink?

I don't think so.

Anything you'd like,
just ask for it.

Looking for this?

Hey, you, come out here.

Hang tough.

Sit down.

What were you gonna do
with this thing, huh?

Blow a big hole in me?

Or maybe nail me in the back
of the head when I walk away?

Just pull back the hammer and
slowly squeeze the trigger.

Now you wouldn't do that to me,
would you?

I got my eye on you.

Hey, dude, I need a pizza
for the second half.

Sure.
What kind would you like?

Half pepperoni and half sausage.

Sounds good. Can do that.

Make it quick. I want to have
it ready for the second half.

You got it.

Frankie, where's Face?

He's in the john.

So how's dinner?

Unusual.

How's the ball game?

Unbelievable, man.

10-10. Should be
a great second half.

Hey. What's going on
out there?

Some guy who came in
for a pizza.

- Well, give him one already made.
- All right.

His pulse is all right.

Murdoch, it's so cold.
It's so cold.

He says it hurts
when I press down so hard.

Unfortunately, it's necessary.
Where's that other pizza?

There's a plain one
right on top of the counter.

You think it's a good idea to let
this mulignan walk with the food?

Well, he's probably got about five guys
over at his house to watch the game.

He don't show up with a pizza,

we're gonna have a basketball
team down here looking for him.

All right!

Touchdown on the kickoff,
Skins in front.

Hey, man, sure taking Face
a long time in the bathroom.

Yeah, he wasn't feeling
so good. Stomach trouble.

Hey, man, hurry up
with my pizza!

Here, I'll help you with that.

I'll get it.

Smells great.
How much do I owe you?

That'll be 10 even.

Enjoy your dinner.

Now, waiter,
let's see what we got here.

Nice try.

Anyone out there moves,

anybody sneezes,
a light bulb goes out,

I'm gonna come in here and start
cutting up this young lady.

And I don't care
if it's your fault or not.

You're responsible.

All right, back in
record time. Still hot.

Man, did you see that kickoff?

Yeah, it was really something.

You two been behaving
while I was gone?

Were we supposed to?

Can you get a couple of
extra sodas, would you, B.A.?

Coming right up.

Anchovies!

Anchovies!

That fool put anchovies on
this pizza. I'm gonna k*ll him!

Give me your piece, B.A.

"Help"?

Now that's funny.

His pulse is about 136.

It's getting stronger.

That's a good sign.

Let me talk to you for a minute.

What? 136.
That's good, right?

In his condition
if his pulse hits 150,

he's got about 10 minutes...

I want you two out here.

If this man doesn't get
to a hospital in 30 minutes...

Don't worry yourself.
It'll be over in 20.

Hey, I wanna see
you people looking normal.

Eating and having
a great time, you know.

Put some tunes
on the box there, Joey.

Get back to your table
and sit down.

Bring him something to eat.
He looks hungry.

Hey, bring me a drink, will you?

Come on. You heard the man.
Look normal.

What's the matter?

Don't you like her?

Huh?

Put your arm around her.

Hey, what are you
looking away for?

Give him a kiss.

You give her a kiss then.

Well, you want me to show you
how to kiss her?

Here. Come here.

- Hey, that's enough!
- That's never enough!

Your man's got some guts.
Oh, I'm impressed.

But no brains!

This man isn't
even smart enough,

you know, to like
his wife enough here.

Why don't you leave them alone?

Because I love people, man.

I'm a people person.

Go on then. Kiss her.

You see?

Nobody's moved
since I was in there.

It's unnatural.

But you wouldn't notice it
unless you were looking for it.

Two hoods in dark suits
seem to be running the thing.

And Face isn't
in the dining room.

He wasn't in there when I went
to pick up the pizza either.

He may be hurt.
I say we bust in there.

Can't. Too many people.

First we got to find out
what they want.

How we gonna do that?

I'll get it.

Villa Cucina.

What? Come on. Would you
speak English please?

Look, whatever you want
we don't got any, all right?

- Who was that?
- I don't know.

It was some guy rambling on in
Italian. I didn't understand him.

What is this guy?
Doesn't understand English or what?

What, are you brain-dead?

You want him to come
down here in person?

Get over here.

Now you tell him you're
closed, and that's it.

- Villa Cucina.
- Murdock,

we're across the street.
What's going on?

Yes, hello, Mr. Liebster.

The attorney general's in there.

We have you down for your 9:00
reservation. Everything's okay?

Got it.

How many hoods are in there?

The usual special, sir, three.

But I'd stay away from veal
picatta. It doesn't look too good.

Okay. You and Frank
stand by.

All right, the attorney
general is on his way.

Looks like the attorney general
is walking into a mob set up.

And you're right, Face is down.

Empress six to Empress One.

Empress Six to Empress One.

Empress Six, go ahead please.

General, we've got
a hostage situation here

in a restaurant on 10th Street.

It looks like Attorney General
Liebster's walking into a mob hit.

I can have a SWAT team there
within three minutes.

Negative, General.
If these guys see any cops,

they could k*ll everybody
in the place.

We'll handle it.

You guys have been sitting here
for quite a while, haven't you?

Well...

Is something wrong
with that, Officer?

Depends.

Mind stepping
out of the car, please?

How's Face holding up?

I think we got about 30 minutes before
we have to get him to DC General.

All right,
when Liebster walks in here,

you people keep your mouth shut
and full of food, you got it?

Get behind the register.

Bring some pasta out here
for me and Joey.

Great song, huh?

Huh?

Excuse me,
may I have this dance?

Come on, dance with me.

Come on, he doesn't care.
Come on.

Attagirl.

That's nice.

That's enough, you punk!
Let her go!

They're gonna get you and they're
gonna put you behind bars!

Let her go!

Or what?

Testify against me?

You're gonna be buried
by then, pal.

Enjoy your last meal.

Joey, knock it off.

Here. Is that Mace
in your purse?

Hey.

What are you doing?

Where's my pasta?

You make another left,
then a quick right on Lincoln

and it'll lead you straight to
the monument, Mr. Brookfield.

Thanks.

- Got it, Lar?
- Got it. We better get going.

- Thanks for the directions, Officer.
- No problem.

You picked a good time.

The Lincoln Monument is great,
all lit up at night.

Hey, isn't that
Frankie's car over there?

Yeah.

Make a left at the next
corner. I got an idea.

Oh.

He don't look too good.

What a waste.

Some people don't know
how to live,

some people don't know
how to die.

A guy shouldn't have to suffer.

What the hell was that?

Oh, you got to help me.

There's been
a terrible accident.

I got to use your phone.

There's a pay phone
down the street.

I swear I didn't see him.

I think he's dead.

Let him in, otherwise we got the whole
street covered with cops and paramedics.

Car's on fire, Lou.

Aren't you gonna
let me use the phone?

Yeah, relax, pal.
We'll get to it.

- Angelo?
- Yeah.

Nice, B.A.

Hannibal, there's
another one out front.

Nervous,
right in front of the bar.

How's Face?

He's losing a lot of blood.
I can't get it to stop.

I don't think
he's got 15 minutes.

Tie this guy up.

See if you can get him
down at this end of the room.

You got it.

Frankie, you got to
give me a hand at the bar.

They told me to take these cases and
stack them in front of the back door.

You mind if I finish
my coffee first?

Hey, just do it!

Let's go.

That about does it.

Freeze! Nobody move!

Thank goodness you're here.

Frankie, get a stretcher.

Nobody's going anywhere.

Yeah.

Yeah, just some kids
sh**ting off firecrackers.

Apparently they've been
hassling Sal lately.

No, no, you don't have to send a
backup unless you wanna chase the alley.

No problem, Sarge.

I'll put it in my report.

All right.

Liebster's gonna be here
in 10 minutes.

Anybody moves, anybody, I'm gonna
sh**t this girl, you got it?

We got five minutes
to straighten this place out.

Angy, take these two,
move the wreck in the alley.

You were that close,

that close to having
a SWAT team down here.

Well, expect a thank
you note in your payoff.

Why don't you get back to
your b*at and quit worrying?

Quit worrying?
This was supposed to be clean.

You come in, plug a guy,
drop the g*ns and leave.

Now I'm placing
phone calls from here.

I'm gonna look like a jerk
when this place goes down.

Hey!

For 200 grand
you can look like a jerk.

You're getting enough money
to retire in Acapulco,

and you're worried
about being suspended

because an attorney general gets wasted
on your b*at and you couldn't stop it?

Come on!

We could always arrange
a convincing head wound.

You'll be a hero.

Shut up, kid.

Tommy.

Now, who do you work for?

The Vienna Boys Choir.
How about you?

Let me get him with this.

He'll start singing.

Congressional Committee on Organized
Crime just indicted six hoods.

You guys work for them.

You wanna wipe out
the attorney general

before he can take those indictments
to court and make them stick, right?

You could be dropped anytime.

Do it.

Hey, Joey, calm down.

Look, I need you
out here with Angelo.

I got to have everybody
where I can see them.

Take these two, go back there
and drag the hero out here

and put him behind the bar.

Come on.

Ten minutes
till Liebster gets here.

His pulse is almost 150.

I can't believe
I'm responsible for all this.

When you get in the
dining room, stand by.

I think I got a distraction.

How's he doing, Hannibal?

He's done better.

All right, get them all out
here. We got 10 minutes.

Put him behind the bar.

All right, move him.

Hey, what's that smell?

Check it out. Quick.

It's gas!

He's weak, but we can move him.

Get the van, B.A. We got to get
him to DC General right away.

He'll be there in five minutes.

Okay, okay, okay, buddy.
He's out, he's out, he's out.

What the hell is this?

You better start thinking
Chinese food, pal.

Let's grab that cop.

How's the pain?

Well, only hurts when I breathe.

You was out cold for a day
and a half in the hospital.

They said you hit on two
nurses while you were sedated.

Really? How'd I do?

You evoked great sympathy.

They left their telephone
