RED: He's gothis fingers in a lot of pies, from what I hear.
ANDY: What you hear isn't half of it. He's got scams you haven't dreamed of. Kickbacks on his kickbacks. There's a river of dirty money flowing through this place.
RED: Can be a problem having all that money. 'Cause sooner or later you're gotta have to explain where it came from.
ANDY: That's where I come in. I channel it, filter it, funnel it...stocks, securities, tax-free municipals...I send that money out into the real world. And when it comes back...
RED: Clean as a virgin's honeybunch?
ANDY: Cleaner. By the time Norton retires, I will have made him a millionaire.
RED: If they ever catch on him, he's gonna wind up here wearing a number himself.
ANDY: Oh Red, I thought youhad a little more faith in methan that.
RED: I know you're good, but all that paper leaves a trail. Now anybody gets curious, FBI, IRS, whatever. It's going to lead to somebody.
ANDY: Sure it is. But not to me, and certainly not to the warden.
RED: All right, who?
ANDY: Randall Stevens.
RED: Who?
ANDY: The "silent" silent partner. He's the guilty one, your Honor. The man with the bank accounts. It's where the filtering process starts. They trace anything, it's gonna lead to him.
RED: But who is he?
ANDY: He's a phantom, an apparition. Second cousin to Harvey the Rabbit. (off Red's look) I conjured him out of thin air. He doesn't exist...except on paper.
RED: Andy, you can't justmake a person up.
ANDY: Sure you can, if you know how the system works, and where the cracks are. It's amazing what you can accomplish by mail. Mr. Stevens has a birth certificate, driver's license, social security number.
Red: You're shitting me.
ANDY: If they ever trace any of those accounts, they'll wind up chasing a figment of my imagination.
RED: Well,I'll be damned!Did I say you were good? Shit! You're Rembrandt.
ANDY: The funny thing is on the outside, I was an honest man. Straight as an arrow. I had to come to prison to be a crook.
