  Earl:    Yeah.   When his nephew was arrested he had $37,000.
  They gave the money back to Ratsy.

  Stern:  Is that right?  I don't understand it.  What's wrong with all of you.  Can't we get
  someone on a major bust that you bought your way out of him already.
  We need to set someone up, have him arrested, have him busted, and
  go to a certain attorney and buy their way out.

  Earl:     Oh, that can't be me.   I don't think, because he would
  suspect me too much with stuff like that going on.

  Stern:  Ok, if you get a call from that DA down there...
