Dino smiles in his eyes, tweaks his head.
Doug is opaque.
DINO
You know we pulled a print off the
van, right?
The DOOR OPENS and Frawley enters. He walks over to Dino
and stands beside where he is sitting, across from Doug.
FRAWLEY
Do you know what they teach us at
the academy, Mr. MacRay?
(off no response)
During interrogations, always
begin treating the subject kindly
so as to win his trust, the logic
being that you can always turn
ugly later but it’s very difficult
to start off unsympathetic and
later become what we call a
‘trusted figure.’
Frawley takes a large file, conspicuously labeled
“MacRay” and puts it on the table between them.
FRAWLEY
Even in light of that, Doug, I
gotta tell you... you’re an
asshole.
He points to photos on the wall of the armored car that
was robbed.
FRAWLEY
You didn’t just roll a Star Market
in Malden for a box of quarters.
You banged it out in the North End
with assault rifles at nine in the
morning. You fucked yourself,
right in the mouth. Because if
the 7.62 rounds weren’t enough to
smear you with the scent of fetid
meat and attract every slophound
law enforcement from here to
Springfield -- you fucking dummies
shot a guard. Now you’re like a
half-off sale at Big and Tall:
every cop is in line. However,
this guard, who is two-thirds to a
retard, has miraculously clung to
life.
