The next night Graham calls Romano and offers to make a payoff.
At this point, Graham shoots his brother in the back of the head, then rides away on a folding bike he stashed in the trunk. Then Graham drives Teddy to a deserted dirt road in the hills to make what Teddy thinks will be the payoff. The chaos distracts Romano long enough for Graham to make a call to Teddy from Romano's office phone, so the phone records will make it seem like Romano was calling Teddy. He pays a visit to the restaurant of Bruno Romano, the bookie that Teddy is in debt to, and sets some mice loose in the bathroom. He promises a now-terrified Teddy that he will pay off Teddy's debt, which is now $200K. Teddy is so confident that he tells the Mafia goons to bet on their horse to get back the money that Teddy owes them.īefore the race, Graham drugs Fiddling Bull, which loses. Graham has a horse, Fiddling Bull, that he has been holding back in races in order to build up long odds for a big race at Santa Anita, but the horse has been posting stellar times in trials at Timber Ridge and the McVeighs are confident that they're going to win. Graham decides on a more permanent solution to the problem: killing Teddy. Teddy, much to his brother's rage, has once again run up massive gambling debts, and is now deeply in hock to the Mafia. The problem is his brother Teddy, a ne'er-do-well loser who has a habit of running up huge gambling debts, and who inconveniently owns half of Timber Ridge, which the brothers inherited from their parents.
Graham McVeigh ( George Wendt) is the owner of Timber Ridge Farms, a horse breeding and stable business that breeds thoroughbred race horses.
