• Ace Rothstein : Adjourned? What do you mean adjourned? Mr. Chairman, Senator. You promised me a hearing, you won't allow me a hearing? You didn't even look at the FBI reports. When you were my guest, Mr. Chairman, Senator, at the Tangiers hotel, did you not promise me that I would have a fair hearing?

  Senator : I was never... I was never your guest at the Tangiers...

  Ace Rothstein : You were never my guest?

  Senator : ...that's right.

  Ace Rothstein : I never comped you? I don't comp you at least 2 or 3 times a month? At the Tangiers?

  Senator : I... I'd like to answer that at this time. Mr. Rothstein is being very typical to this point. He's lying. The only time I was at the Tangiers was when I had dinner with Barney Greenstein.

  Ace Rothstein : Was I at that dinner? Tell me, was I at that dinner?

  Senator : You were wandering.

  Ace Rothstein : Was I at that dinner? Was I?

  Senator : You were wandering around. You were in the... you were in the building.

  Ace Rothstein : I was in the building? You know damn well I was at that dinner, and you swore to me I would have a fair hearing. Did you not? Did you not? Well, tell me I was at least at the dinner. Allow me that much. Give me that much at least!

  Senator : Yes, you were.

  Ace Rothstein : Yeah. Thanks for not calling me a liar, you piece of garbage. You stupid...
