STODDARD THORSEN I'm not taking two million dollars of the taxpayers' money and putting it anywhere for five days, I don't care if we control it the whole time.
Richie as he stares at Stoddard in frustration.
RICHIE DIMASO: Stoddard, let us do what we need to do to rule out corruption and to get rid of the payoff guys that are ruining this country. That's my dream. Don't smother it, please.
STODDARD THORSEN You know Richard, I understand your eagerness. I really do. You know I'm from Michigan, right? Let me tell you a story about me, and my dad, and my brother. We used to go ice fishing every November. Ice Fishing. That’s what we lived for.
RICHIE DIMASO: Holy sh*t -- STODDARD THORSEN Just listen to me. It's beautiful.
You have a little stove. You huddle around, you keep each other warm.

RICHIE DIMASO: I understand what's happening.
You're saying your brother went outon the ice, the ice was too thin, he fell through the ice, he went inthe water because he was too eager, and you're saying I'm too eager -- that's what you're saying?
STODDARD THORSEN No, that’s not what I’m saying.
