Harry Stone:
[explaining his meeting with Marty Cologne] This is part of a govnerment sting to catch some criminals who have been bribing judges.

Buddy Ryan:
Really? Then all that stuff Christine told me about your feeling alone, without any family, that was all part of the act?

Harry Stone:
Right.

Buddy Ryan:
[deep sigh] What a relief. And to think I almost told you that I was your father.

Harry Stone:
You mean my stepfather.

Buddy Ryan:
No, I mean your *real* father. But, now I guess there's no need to tell you.

Harry Stone:
What?

Buddy Ryan:
Hec, I always figured you'd be better off not knowing anyway, so you won't hear it from me.

Harry Stone:
Wait a minute, Buddy. You're trying to tell me that you are my *real* father?

Buddy Ryan:
Well since you brought it up... yeah.
