(uptempo synth music)

- [Malone] Yeah, what is it?

- [Walker] Three bank robbers fudged a job

at the Citi First National.

Right now they're holed up in
a sporting club, the Red 55.

That's between 5th and...

- [Malone] Yeah, I know
where the Red 55 is.

But it's not the kind of place

I like to hang around in, sorry, Captain.

- [Walker] Don't be an ass, Malone.

They've got hostages!

- [Malone] Alright, be right there.

(suspenseful music)

- This is Walker, get me the chief.

Quick.

Huh?

Yeah, those three sons of bitches

have already killed a hostage, sir.

What do you want me to do?

Uh-huh.

Yes sir, right.

Yeah, I've called in Malone.

He's on his way over, should
be here in a minute or so.

He's here now, he's moving.

Okay Robert, they say they won't move

until they've talked to one of us.

You're elected.

The chief says we have to negotiate.

We have to accept all their
conditions, don't forget it.

Robert, I don't want any other victims.

A word to the wise, huh?

- [Masked Leader] Keep your head down!

If you want it to stay on your neck.

That's right, keep calm.

Visitors, don't move!

- [Robber] Keep it on,
I'll talk to him, boss.

Okay, pay attention, cop,
I'm only gonna say this once.

We want two million dollars
in unmarked used bills.

Nothing smaller than 10s
and nothing bigger than 50s.

No consecutive serial numbers.

We want a limo to take us to the airport

and a plane to take us to Mexico.

You boys behave yourself,

and you'll get all these good
folks back in once piece,

understand that, cop?

- No way, pal.

(woman yelps)

(bandit shouts)

(yells in pain)

(woman whimpers)

- Great, just great, Malone.

You did it your way, as usual.

I gave you an order.

You were sent in here to
negotiate, weren't you?

Accept all their demands, no more victims.

- They're scum, human garbage.

(plane flies overhead)

(suspenseful music)

(engines rev)

(upbeat saxophone music)

- It's a great steak, honey.

- A great windsurfer deserves no less.

You going out again?
- Mmhm.

You know it.

- [Woman] I wish I was attractive

as four and a half square feet of canvas.

Really?

- [Ted] Well, you cook a better steak.

- [Woman] You will comeback
sometime, won't you?

- [Ted] Sooner or later.

(camera shutter clicks)

- You wanna know what I
think about that camper?

- Should I try to guess, Hopkins?

It's meant just for us.

- Mmhm.

(engines rev)

(suspenseful music)

(gasps)

- [Woman] (yelps) Stop!

Ted, Ted!

Oh my god!

(woman cries)

No, no!

- [Bandit] Will you move over?

(bandits laugh)

Come on, you move!
- Come on!

(bandits shout)
(woman yelps)

(bandits laugh)

- [Woman] No, no!

Ted, no!
- Come on!

- [Ted] You bastards, leave her alone!

(shouts)

(woman cries)

- [Woman] Oh god.

Oh god.

- Come on, you've broken it
off with Alan, haven't you?

- Stop right there, don't move.

- Elys, quit trying to change the subject.

- Jill, we have a job to do.

Or do you think I should
use these flashbulbs

in an interrogation room?

- I know he does it out of love, but...

- Yeah, I'm very fond of him, too.

But right now I need peace and quiet,

only it doesn't work with him.

You know, success didn't
come overnight for me,

I worked my tail off.

And it's hard to stay on top.

But I'll hold on.

When another photographer
is mentioned in a column,

I know I still have a
lot of fighting to do.

I've got to concentrate
on nothing but my job.

I mean it, there's no hope.

I suppose that's enough work for tonight.

We'll finish this off tomorrow.

(uptempo funk music)

- Aren't you leaving too, Elys?

- No, I've gotta get a few
things ready for tomorrow.

- Okay, so long.

- So long.

Jill, would you turn the light
out as you leave, please?

- [Jill] Sure.

(door closes)

(foreboding music)

- Who's there, who's that?

Still here, Jill?

- [Alan] Hi, hope I didn't scare you.

- (sighs) You didn't scare me, Alan,

but you gotta stop this power game.

Don't you listen to the radio?

The whole city is terrorized.

All the things that are going on, and you,

you play hide and seek at 11 p.m.

- You're the one who's
playing hide and seek with me.

My sister's not very good
at lying, she never was.

- Just like you in keeping bargains.

- I just came by to bring
you this, you left it.

And because I just can't
go on without seeing you.

The fault isn't mine.

My god, I just can't
get you out of my head.

- Listen, Alan, let's
try to find a compromise.

We'll talk often on the
phone, all the time.

But don't you go back on your word.

- Sure, we always wind up
doing what you want, anyway.

(ominous music)

(thunder rumbles)

- Hey!
- Let me go!

(banging)
(woman screams)

(suspenseful music)

(moans)

- What's the matter, little girl,

the sight of blood bother you?

(camera shutter clicks)

(bandits laugh)

Forget that, god damn it!

Get out here!

She took pictures of me!

We gotta find her and get
them back, move your asses!

That's her there.

I'll get that bitch.

- Oh.

- [Officer] What seems
to be the matter, lady?

- They're murderers,
they're trying to get me,

they're murderers!

- She took my picture.

That bitch took shots.

- She better be taken
care of soon, I think.

- You don't think!

You don't do any thinking, none at all!

You listening?

- Do something, for god's sake,

arrest them or they'll kill me.

Please help me, please!

- Alright, come on.

(tires squeal)

(relaxing jazz music)

(cat meows)

- Okay, okay, okay.

I hear you, Purrvis, time to eat!

Red can again, okay, you got it!

Oh shit, I'm in trouble.

Okay, okay, I hear you.

Why couldn't I have a
cat that was colorblind?

(cat meows insistently)

We'll try the blue.

Hey, we eat, Purrvis, I found one!

(hums)

I can eat it myself.

Mmm, this is something else, Purrvis.

Red label.

Good, huh?

Better eat it all, 'cause
if you don't, I will.

(phone rings)

Yeah, Malone.

- Robert, you get your
tail here in the office.

Need to speak to you.

(knocking)

- [Malone] Okay, what is it this time?

- [Walker] Shut the door and come in.

- I hope this is important.

I left my cat at home, and he's alone.

Well?

- What we have tonight is another murder,

but this time we have someone who saw it.

A girl called Elys Trumbo.

About to enter her house an hour ago,

witnessed her neighbor being killed.

Smart girl, she got out of it
setting off her little camera

to flash and blinding one of those hoods.

Temporarily, worst luck.

Anyway, she escaped in her car

and our pals took after
her in their Jeep camper.

I'm betting that that car was the same one

that was stolen down at the beach.

Malone, you know that
double homicide, too.

It was committed with just that MO.

My opinion, there's no doubt about it.

It's obviously the same gang of nutcases

we've been after all this time.

But there's one important difference.

A picture exists now of one
of their heads, a portrait.

That's worth leaving
your cat for, isn't it?

(knocking)
Come in.

Ah, here are the prints back from the lab.

Thanks, Mallory.

Oh no.

What a damn disaster.

The flash went off too close,

can't use a single one of these.

That's all we needed.

I thought it was too good to be true.

Wait a minute.

In any case, those hoods are sure

to try to take out that girl.

Robert, from now on,
you're gonna be right next

to Elys Trumbo, and you're
gonna stick to her like glue.

- Where is she now?

- At city hospital.

She's still in a state of shock.

We left a cop there to keep an eye on her.

But she'll be out tomorrow, and
you've gotta stick with her,

even though his honor
will howl like a wolf.

(ominous music)

(knife thuds)

(knife thuds)

(shouts)

- [Leader] You stupid shits.

- Hey, what's the matter?
- Who do you mean?

- I said stay away from this.

I want you operating.

This crap is for weak kids,

little boys who need to work up guts.

It's not you guys.

It's not you guys, it's the system.

It does us all in.

And that's what we're
trying to fight against.

(chuckles)

It's gonna take blood.

And not just anyone's, you know that.

Just of the people who don't
ever have to work for things,

who have it all.

Okay, what's the news?

- The girl's still there in the hospital.

(suspenseful music)

(screams)

- [Leader] One look at you in the hospital

and they'll believe you got a
good reason for being there.

(chuckles)

(suspenseful music)

- City hospital.

She's still in a state of shock.

I left a cop there to keep an eye on her.

(foreboding music)

- Our friend here was hit by
a car, I think he's hurt bad.

For god's sake, call someone.

Come on, move.

(wheels squeak)

- Hey, where you going?

- [Leader] We got a
wounded man here, Officer.

- [Officer] We got nurses for that.

- Now!

- [Officer] Hey!

(shouts)

(gun fires)

- What the hell is this?

What's going on here?

What do you want?

Hey!

Hey, why, what's going on here?

Are you out of your mind?

- Take care of the girl, hurry!

(groans)

(heart beats quickly)

(foreboding music)

(wheels rattle)

(groans)

- (shouts) Oh my god!

No!

No!

Get away, go away!

Oh!

(screams)

Oh no!

(Elys cries)

(screams)

(sobs)

- Lady, lady, give me a
break with all that noise.

(motorcycle engine revs)

(cries)

Alright, alright, it's over.

Enough with the tears, okay?

- Okay.

(melancholy music)

- You could've taken one of
them alive, or am I wrong?

- Yeah, you're wrong.

- In this particular situation,
he had to save the girl.

What else could he do?

- I don't need a lawyer.

You're the ones that were wrong

for putting only one
guard outside the door.

- Why was there only one guard?

- Because someone at the precinct thought

that one was enough.

Looks like he wasn't thinking too well.

- You know, that's the problem.

You're paid to think,

and for both of you, that
could be a little trying.

Now at this time of night,

people are usually sleepy and
likely to make more mistakes.

- You know, Malone, nobody likes you.

- Yeah, I know.

Sometimes I don't like myself, either,

but that's a matter of opinion.

And frankly, I couldn't
give a damn about yours.

All I care about is my work,
to finish what I start,

and I usually do.

Now you asked me to protect this girl.

I did.

It doesn't matter how I did it.

If you still want me
to keep an eye on her,

she has to move over to my place.

- To your bunker, is more like it.

- That's the way I like it.

- [Police Chief] Let's
see how Ms. Trumbo feels

about it first.

- I just can't take any more.

I don't know what's happening,
I'm not in good control.

Put me wherever you like.

You said bunker just now,
maybe that's the only answer.

- [Walker] Okay, Malone,
have it your way, as usual.

- You ready to go, Miss?

- I may be getting an exhibition.

- Is what you do all
that fascinating, lady?

- Just making chat.

We've been in the car 20 minutes

and you haven't said a thing.

- Oh yeah?

(police sirens blare)

- I didn't think you'd be such a grouch.

- Okay, so what do you wanna talk about?

I don't know what to say to you.

- I don't really have a one track mind,

and I don't think you do.

- Look, I don't know
anything about fashion, lady.

- I see.

Alright, don't talk.

It's not your duty.

And by the way, if you
don't wanna protect me,

I've got an idea.

Have someone else called in on the case.

Or next time just let them kill me.

That should take care
of your little problem.

- I think it's about time
you closed your mouth,

too many stupid things
are coming out of it.

(ominous music)

(homeless men chat)

- This place is giving
me the creeps, you know?

I better get out of here.

- [Drifter] Come on, let's move out.

This ain't a healthy place.

- The police sergeant and
the girl gotta be killed.

You, go to her house and wait.

She'll be back there sooner or later.

You might see the cop coming too.

He's pretty sure to try to hide her.

When you find out where,
let us know about it.

And no fancy tricks, right?

(engine revs)

(relaxing jazz music)

(phone rings)

- Oh shit.

Yeah?

- I need you to do me a favor.

I want you to run down to headquarters,

pick up the books with
the mugshots in them.

Bring them over here.

- What do you need them for?

(dial tone buzzes)

7:30.

Sunday, day of rest.

Alright.

One, two, and three.

- Hey Mister, you going somewhere?

- Who's that?

- [Miriam] It's me, darling,
who else would it be?

- I forgot, I'm so stupid.

Listen...

- Miriam.

We've been introduced.

- Miriam.

- [Miriam] Oh, what a quick learner,

you got it right the first time.

- Sweet Miriam.

Forgive me.

It's awful, but I have to go.

I promise I'll be back in a flash, okay?

- [Miriam] I've seen some
long flashes in my day,

and some flashes in the pan.

- Will you still be here?

- In a hiding place.

- I'll find it, that's my job.

- I'll make it hard on you.
- I won't answer that.

(ominous music)

(relaxing jazz music)

- Nope, not one of these, no way.

Nobody looks at all like him.

- Thank you, Miss.

You mind coming down
to headquarters with us

and helping to composite this man?

- Of course I will.

But on one condition.

I'm Elys, not Miss, okay?

- It's not much, but
it's better than nothing.

How do you feel today?

Any better now that you've rested?

- Lots better, thank you.

- Good.

Come in.

Give this to the patrols,
and to the press.

- Where do you get these ideas from?

You invent them all by yourself?

- Why?

- This guy thinks you have
a picture of his face.

You put this sketch in a newspaper,

he'll know you don't have anything.

He many never come out of his hole.

- Did you hear him?

Do as Sergeant Malone says, quick.

- We have something he wants,
the bait he's dying to bite.

(foreboding music)

- Robert, I just have to grab a bag

and pack it with some old
clothes and a toothbrush.

I'll only be a short time.

- [Malone] Yeah, that's
fine, but I'll come with you.

You never know.

Hold it, I'll open it.

- Is something wrong?

- I'll check it out.

Alright, seems okay.

- If you want something to
drink while you're waiting,

help yourself, my house is yours.

There's some great bourbon.

- Milk is more my thing.

- A man of a thousand virtues.

(ominous music)

(suspenseful music)

Aren't you the sneaky one?

This is a lady's bedroom, sir.

(groans)

(shouts)

(yelps)

- Where are the rest of your friends, huh?

Where the rest of your friends?

I'll break it off!

Tell me or I'll break it off!

(shouts in pain)

(shouts)

(screams)

(ominous music)

(tense music)

- [Leader] No one can tell
who that's a picture of.

- [Short Bandit] Nick is dead,

but he sure as hell didn't talk.

- It was up to me.

I should've gone instead.

Now it's time to act.

It's time, alright.

(melancholy music)

(cat meows)

(chuckles)

(cat meows)

- [Elys] Hi.

- If you have to open your mouth,

then do it just to shove
in the food I made for you.

It's there on the table.

(pop music)

(chuckles)

This is brainwash music itself.

I don't know how you
kids can listen to that.

- Daddy, you're hopeless.

- Aha.

I didn't think it was Frank Sinatra.

- Put the gun away, or I'll
blow your daughter's head off.

- Come on, better get out.

Out!
- Our super quiz!

Hello?
- Hello?

- Hi there.
(groans)

- [Terry] I'm Terry.

- [Mel] Terry, what part of the country

are you calling us from?

- [Terry] Bronx.

- [Mel] Have you been
following our program

for very long?

- [Terry] The last couple of months.

- Is that all?
(fists thud)

(Walker shouts)

Are you ready to answer
the first question?

- [Terry] We can try.

- [Mel] Okay.

The host, one of our immortal
sports heroes, Babe Ruth,

the Sultan of Swat, as he was called.

(yelps)

- That's enough!

He's had it.

- [Mel] Come on, Terry, it's not hard.

- [Terry] I don't think I know.

- Sure you do.
- You listen to me.

You wanna see your daughter alive,

you give me the photo and Malone, too.

Tomorrow morning, at
the old power station.

- [Terry] No, I just don't.

- Tomorrow morning, Walker.

And no tricks.

Eh?

Or we'll cut up your daughter,

'till she looks like a jigsaw puzzle.

- [Mel] I admire your loyalty,

but it doesn't win you
our big first prize.

We do have a great
consolation prize, though,

a $20 discount at any Dundee Supermarket.

(shouts)

- [Terry] Does that mean
I can go buy something?

- [Mel] At any Dundee Supermarket,

and $20 will be taken off
your bill, that's right.

- [Terry] Jeez, that's really great,

I shop there all the time!

- [Mel] That's what we like to hear.

Now don't hang up, you've
gotta talk with our secretary

so she can get the prize certificate.

- [Terry] Don't worry, I'll hang right on.

- [Mel] Terry, thanks
for playing our quiz.

It's been nice talking to you.

- [Terry] You too, Mel, thanks a lot.

- [Mel] Okay, and don't
forget to keep listening

to Mel's Quiz Game every
day of the week at the same.

- I feel like I'm going crazy.

Damned if I can see any way
of getting out of this mess.

And damned if I can go
along with their conditions.

- [Malone] What's your other choice?

- I can't ask you to go.

You'd just get yourself killed.

And I'd spit at myself
for the rest of my life!

If I were 25 years younger, by god!

- If you were 25 years younger,

you wouldn't even have a daughter.

Look Max, I've already
made up my mind, I'm going.

- But you can't.

It's just suicide.

They'll kill her anyway.

Robert, I know why
you're doing this for me.

But it won't help,
they'll just kill you too.

So forget it.

- I'm not doing it for you.

I'm just doing it.

I would do it even if it
was Santa Clause's daughter.

- [Girl] (yelps) Let me go!

No!

(screams)

Let me go!

No!

(men jeer)

Let go!

- [Leader] Get out of here.

Now!

- Get out, get out!
- Come on, man!

- [Leader] Not bad for
a cop's daughter, huh?

- [Short Bandit] Wouldn't
mind tearing off a hunk

of that right now.

(yelps)

- You can wait 'till evening.

She's a little too upset
to enjoy it right now.

(whimpers)

(relaxing jazz music)

- Robert never knew his parents.

The man in the picture is not his father.

He adopted him.

He was alone too.

Old and alone.

They stuck together, and
with all they went through,

they found some kind of
companionship with each other.

Until one day, when the walls
of Jericho came crashing down.

Robert was just a kid
then, still in school.

One morning, two drunks
robbed and killed the old man.

Yeah, you heard me.

For seven lousy dollars.

Robert survived somehow,

but after that something
was different inside him.

After he did his stint in Vietnam,

where he won every medal in the book,

he came back and joined the police force.

He's not a bad guy.

His battle against crime
goes back a long way.

Sometimes I think nothing
else means a thing to him.

(car door slams)

- If I could just, if I
could get a bead on him,

on that type of man, I'd
give a lot to understand him.

- What did Walker want this time, Robert?

What's so important?

I don't like the sound
of your silence, pal.

(suspenseful music)

- [Leader] Come on, get out, move!

Tie her up!

- Do you mind if I get something too?

Otherwise I'll just look
like I'm going fishing.

You gonna give me some
cartridges, or do I use popcorn?

- Don't go out, don't
open the door for anyone.

Take care of her, Purrvis.

Is that thing ready?

- It's out in the car.

Get something to eat,
you're losing weight.

(door closes)

(ominous music)

(screams)

- Shit.

(shouts)

(bandit groans)

- Hold it right there.

Come one step closer
and I'll cut her throat.

I mean it, I'm not kidding around.

- Listen pal, this is a 45 automatic,

loaded with lead-plated bullets.

A shot at this distance
could blow a man's head off.

I think I know what's going
through your head right now.

You're wondering if I
got any bullets left.

Your guess is as good as mine.

Who's got the odds beat, you or me?

Today I feel lucky.

You wanna kill her, go ahead.

You've got the knife
in the right position.

The sight of blood won't bother me, punk.

What you waiting for?

- [Bandit] Hey look, I...

- I don't give a shit.

'Cause I'm gonna take one shot,

just to see how far your
goddamn head's gonna roll.

(gun clicks)

(groans)

(melancholy jazz music)

- I have to admit that it was a pleasure.

It was fun in a strange way, though.

I wanna say thank you.

- You don't have to.

Anyway, if ever I get bored,

I know where to come for excitement.

- Thank you, see you around.

Bye.

- [Dispatcher] Emergency
situation, 87th and 2nd.

Emergency situation, 87th and 2nd.

All cars in the vicinity,
proceed there immediately.

(radio beeps)

- On my way.

(suspenseful music)

(ominous music)

(patrons chat)

- Good evening sir,
there'll be a bit of a wait.

- [Leader] I'll be at the bar.

- Sir, what'll you have?

- [Leader] Scotch, double.

- I'm not an expert in fashion,

but I'm sure you've been quite successful.

- Uh-huh, you've been doing a
little research, haven't you?

I can't believe I'm able to relax, Robert.

I actually went and did
some work this morning,

and it actually turned
out okay, I was amazed.

Robert.

Robert.

In this whole business,

you know where the biggest surprise came?

When you invited me out.

- You gotta eat sometimes.

Besides, gives me a
chance to get dressed up.

But your problems might not be over yet.

Wait 'till you see my
face when I get the check.

(Elys giggles)

- As long as you don't
think you can get away

with just one date, Mr. Malone.

Next time it's dinner at my place.

Do you like Mexican food?

Robert?

Robert, what's with you?

(foreboding music)

- [Malone] Oh, oh, nothing, nothing,

I thought I saw someone I recognized.

- [Elys] Well anyway,
I hate to be forward,

but I'd hate even more
if I didn't speak up.

I think if we managed to have
fun even over this last week,

we should seriously consider
seeing more of each other.

Robert, are you listening to me?

- Sure, sure, I'm listening.

It's just that I never did talk a lot,

even when I was a kid.

I always preferred actions to words.

- [Elys] So I see.

(heart beats rapidly)

(screams)

(ominous music)

(relaxing jazz music)

- Well, have a good trip.

I like to see you taking
a few days of vacation.

You have so many that you never took

that you could retire right now.

(chuckles)

- Yeah, I've been wanting to

- Goodbye, Miss.
