Abruzzi: Philly.

Philly: Sit down, kid. So... Fibonacci. How'd you find him?

Michael: Did my homework.

Philly: You get elliptical with me for one more second, and I will cancel you. You understand me?

Abruzzi: Give it up, Fish.

Michael: Before someone's transferred to the U.S. Marshals Service to be placed in Witness Protection, they're guarded by a local sheriff from the county where the trial will take place.

Michael: Sheriff Solomon, please.

Woman: Please hold.

Andrew Solomon: Andrew Solomon here.

Michael: If the sheriff was available, then he wasn't the one guarding Fibonacci.

Woman: Putnam County Sheriff's Office.

Michael: Yeah, is, uh, Sheriff Pronzo there?

Woman: I'm sorry, Sheriff Pronzo is on vacation.

Michael: Really?

Woman: Yes, sir.

Michael: There were only four sheriffs in the county. And since Pronzo was the only one who wasn't in his office, and his wife and kids were waiting for him at home, I knew the only vacation he was taking was with Fibonacci.

Philly: Watching him until they could put him in Protection.

Michael: Thing is, sometimes it takes weeks for the Marshall Service to set up a new identity. So some local sheriff is stuck in the middle of nowhere with Fibonacci. He gets lonely and calls home... a lot. I called the phone company, said I was Pronzo and I'd lost my bill. I asked for another copy. Seems Mrs. Pronzo was receiving dozens of calls from an area code a long way from Chicago. I went online, reverse-traced the number, and vow2? There was Fibonacci's exact location.

Philly: How do you know he's still there?

Michael: I have someone looking after him... watching from afar, in case he moves.

Philly: Mm-hmm. This is about money, isn't it?

Michael: You're an astute3 man, Mr. Falzone.

Abruzzi: What?

Philly: Your friend here, John, is trying to extort4 me.

Michael: Not extortion, insurance. I plan on being out of here one day. And I don't think my new resume's gonna cut it in most places.

Philly: How much?

Michael: 200,000.

Abruzzi: I'm gonna kill you.

Michael: Quid pro1 quo. You scratch my back, I scratch yours.

Abruzzi: Hi. It's John. You wanted to talk to me?

Man: Yeah. You hear the news? Falzone got popped last night up in Canada. International gun charges. Parole violation5. He's in deep.
