Is that why you did it?

The ET made me do it.

I believe Jodi's
telling the truth.

Mrs. Hendricks, has she ever
talked to you about her own ET?

Who, David?

They were here.

They're coming back tonight
to take me with 'em!

- Jodi, listen to me.
- I want to go.

You're not gonna take her!

Leave her alone!

'15 Mary 6 and 7 H 50.'

'How goes it, night owl?'

'Dark and boring, H 50.'

How long you think
we'll be stuck out here?

Who knows?

I kind of like
the boondocks.

Peace and quiet.

I don't mind
the peace and quiet.

But this night work
is wrecking my social life.

No kidding.

I didn't know
you had one.

Very funny!

Ponch, do you think Getraer's
sticking us out here

had anything to do with my bike
scratching his car?

Of course not, Bobby.
It was an accident.

Sergeant would never let
a little thing

like that influence
his decisions.

Hey, you! Stop!

Kid?

I couldn't get
anywhere with her.

Not even her name.

We appreciate you
coming in early, Kathy.

No problem.
What is she?

Eleven, twelve years old?

How could she pull
a burglary like that?

You should have seen her
drive that car.

Man, she was flying!

What about that clay
stuff she used?

It's been sent
over to the lab.

I've never seen
anything like it.

I feel sorry for that kid.

I wish there was something
we could do.

You don't have
a lot of choices.

Without an ID,
you can't locate her parents.

She'll have to be sent
to juvenile hall.

Well, I'm going to give it
one more try.

You're wasting your time.

You never waste time
on a kid.

How you feeling?

Your head still hurt?

Hey, I know you're tired.

And maybe a little scared.

But if you don't talk to me,
you're gonna have to talk

to them down in juvenile hall.

Believe me,
that's no picnic.

I don't care
what happens to me.

What about your mom and dad?
Don't you think they care?

I don't have a father.

Then let's talk
about your mother.

There's nothing
to talk about.

She's busy with her own life.

She doesn't have any time
for some dumb kid.

Is that why you did it?

No.

But if I told you the truth
you wouldn't believe me.

Try me.

The ET made me do it.

The ET?

I told you
you wouldn't believe me.

'Hey, now, wait a minute.
I didn't say that.'

You just caught me
by surprise, that's all.

Now, when you say ET

is that like
an extraterrestrial

from outer space?

If you're gonna make
fun of me

then just go away
and leave me alone!

Hey, I'm not makin'
fun of you.

I really want
to hear your story.

I mean it.

Last night..

...I'm not sure
what time it was.

I guess around midnight.

I was asleep when

a cold wind woke me.

I felt like something
was pulling at me.

I got up and went
to the window.

Alright.

I don't understand.

How can Ihelp you?

You need diamonds to fix
your communications system?

Well, I'd like to help,
but I don't have any.

Well, I don't know.
That'd be stealing.

And then you
could get back?

I bet someone loves you
and misses you.

I'll help you.

I told you
you wouldn't believe me.

You got to admit that's one
heck of a story to swallow.

But I'll give you the benefit
of the doubt for now.

I'm sorry,
I got so angry.

It's just that, it's important
that someone believes me.

Yeah. I know
the feeling.

My name is Poncherello.

My friends call me Ponch.

Will you be my friend?

My name's Jodi.
Jodi Hendricks.

Pleased to meet you, Jodi.

You know, you're quite a driver
for a little kid.

We've got an old pickup
on the ranch.

I've been driving it
for almost a year.

Who taught you
to hot-wire a car like that?

I picked it up.

Um, why don't we
call your mother?

Let her know
you're okay.

Do I have to go to jail?

Hey, Jodi,
you and me are friends.

We'll see this thing
through together, okay?

Why are you doing
this for me?

You have a tough time
trusting anyone.

Don't you?

Maybe I'm doing it
because I know what it's like

to be scared and lonely.

Come on.

Man, there is nothing like
a good night's sleep

to start a man off
in the right frame of mind.

Hey, did I ever tell you
I had this friend

who loved the dogwatch?

That Cocker Spaniel
had the prettiest blue eyes.

Hey! Come on.

You think you can stay awake
long enough to drive home?

I think so.

You sure it wasn't
a Chihuahua?

'Hey, maybe it was.'

Grossy, you put this
in my locker?

- What is it?
- Chain letter.

You're kidding.

"Send it on and great things
will happen to you."

And if you don't, well..

...I don't even want to think
of the consequences.

Remind me to file that letter
in the wastebasket.

'Okay, but it's your neck.'

Getraer wouldn't
pass it on either.

And look what happened to him.

What happened to him?

Somebody dropped
a bike on his new car!

Junk mail.

More junk mail.

- Nothing, but junk mail.
- Ah, gentlemen.

I think you'd like to know

that Mrs. Hendricks
just picked Jodi up.

Good.

So...how are my knights
of darkness doing?

You know, I remember
about 15, 16 years ago

when I was
on the graveyard shift.

It certainly gives one
an opportunity

to contemplate
one's errorsin life.

Doesn't it?

- Sarge?
- Yeah?

Did you want
something, Frank?

Well, uh, I just don't
know how to put this.

Uh, look, Frank,
I'm very busy.

Do you want to talk
about it tomorrow?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

Uh, no!

Well, it's like this.

You shifting us to graveyard
out in the boonies--

Yeah?

Well, that didn't have
anything to do

with, uh, Hot Dog scratching
your car, did it?

Oh, Frank.

I mean, that hurts.

Uh, do you honestly think

I'm capable of something so..

...so mean and petty?

No, no, no.
Of course not.

Sergeant, that was
a really dumb question.

Just forget
I said it, okay?

Uh-huh, Frank.

Uh..

Frank, come here.

Frank, um,
that was a new car.

My very first new car.

Now, if that ever
happens again

you and Nelson are going
to find yourselves

so far out in the boonies..

...you're gonna have to take
a helicopter to work.

What'd I tell you, Eddie?
Boy, cherry blossom lane.

Well, Pete, I just don't know
how you figure out

where they're gonna be!

Hey, there. There. That's what
we've been waiting for.

It's cherry pickin' time.

Are you alright
in there?

Hi, Jodi.

Hi.

You come to arrest me?

No. Came by to talk
to your mother.

You came to see
what a liar I am.

Hey, now, if I thought
you were a liar

I wouldn't waste
my time comin' here.

I'm sorry.
Come on in.

I'll get my mom.

'Hello?'

'How do you do,
Mrs. Hendricks?'

I'm Officer Frank Poncherello.

This is my partner,
Bobby Nelson.

Uh, why don't you
go outside, Jodi? Okay?

I want to talk
to the officers alone.

Go on.

Would you like
some coffee or something?

No, thank you. Uh..

We have a few questions
we'd like to ask you.

Sure. Go right ahead.

- Have a seat.
- Yes, thank you.

Mrs. Hendricks, uh..

Who taught Jodi
how to drive a car?

I taught her.

Um, it was just to haul

feed around the ranch
and-and run to town

you know, some errands. Uh..

How did she learn
how to hot-wire a car?

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Mrs. Hendricks,
we're not the enemy.

All we're concerned about
is Jodi.

What was an 11-year-old girl

doing out alone
at three o'clock in the morning?

I didn't know
she was out.

I-I was out..

...pretty late and, um,
I-I didn't check on her

when I came home.

Look, it's not easy
being a mother

and a father
to a child.

Especially a little girl
like Jodi.

Oh, I don't know. She seemed
like a pretty good kid to me.

It's not that she's bad.

Uh...it's just that..

It's just..

After her dad split, uh..

...she kept to herself
pretty much.

And...she watches
a lot of television

reads books.

She goes to the movies a lot.

She's seen that ET movie
over four times!

Mrs. Hendricks, has she ever
talked to you about her own ET?

- Who, David?
- David?

That's the name of her-her
current imaginary friend.

How much trouble
is she really in?

The charges against her
are very serious.

You could be facing charges, too

Mrs. Hendricks.

What charges?

Contributing to the delinquency
of a minor.

It'll be up to the courts.

But Jodi could be removed
from your home

and placed under some kind
of supervisory care.

Well, maybe that would be, um..

Maybe, that would be better
for the both of us.

Hi, Bobby.

- Hi, Ponch.
- Hi, kitten.

You must be the officers
Jodi has told me about.

- They're my friends.
- You bet we are, baby.

Where's your mom?

She stepped out right before
the proceedings began.

'She never came back.'

Do you have any idea
where she went?

I see Mrs. Hendricks
has not returned.

No, Your Honor,
I'm afraid she hasn't.

Jodi, I'm sorry

but...until we can find
your mother

I have no choice
but to remand you

'to the custody
of juvenile hall..'

...until the disposition
of your case.

Your Honor?

May I approach
the bench?

You have some interest
in this case?

Yes, sir.
My name is Poncherello.

I'm one
of the arresting officers.

He's taken a personal interest
in Jodi, Your Honor.

Alright, officer.
What is it you wish to say?

Well, Your Honor, uh..

...would it be possible
for the court to..

...give me temporary custody
of Jodi?

What do you say
about that, young lady?

I think it'd be super!

Ms. Caulder?

I'm not sure,
Your Honor.

Are you aware
of the responsibility

you're taking on yourself?

Yes, ma'am,
I believe so.

How do you intend to look after
Jodi when you're working?

He has a lot of friends.

That's right, Your Honor.

And I guarantee you,
she won't be left alone.

Ms. Caulder?

Considering the alternatives,
Your Honor..

...I think it's
an excellent idea.

Alright, officer, I hereby
remand Jodi Hendricks

'into your custody.'

Thank you, Your Honor.

Are you sure you don't mind me
taking over your bedroom?

No, I don't mind.

Actually, I prefer
to sleep on the sofa.

The only reason I use the
bedroom is because it's here.

I think we got enough stuff

from your house
to last you a while.

'Now, you better get
some sleep, honey.'

We will see you in the morning.

Alright.

'I'll be by.'

And I'm gonna make you
the best plate

of bacon and eggs
you ever had.

- Ponch?
- Hm?

Thanks for taking me in.

Hey, what are
friends for, huh?

What is this?

This, my uncivilized friend

is a South Philly
gastronomical extravaganza.

Could have fooled me.

Hey, Ponch,
I don't get it.

Get what?

How a mother
can just take off

and leave her child.

Everyone acts differently
under stress.

You think she'll come back?

Yeah, probably.

That still won't help the pain
Jodi's feeling right now.

- What did you see?
- I'm not sure.

A strange light.

It's the helicopter.
I heard it.

Hey, you're not gonna
start believing

in spaceships, are you?

Jodi?

Honey, why are
you out of bed?

He was here.

- Who was here?
- The ET!

He came to thank me
for trying to help him.

It's true, Ponch!

They found another way of fixing
their communications systems.

They're gonna be
leaving soon.

Alright, honey, come on.
Let's get back to bed.

Then we'll talk about it
in the morning.

Now you sound like
my mother.

You don't believe me, do you?

Jodi, I'm trying
very hard.

The ET wants me to go with him.

Do you want to go?

I don't know.

If I can't find
happiness here..

...maybe I can find it
in another world.

Come on, Ponch,
you don't really believe

in Jodi's story, do you?

Bobby, after a few more years
in the saddle

you'll learn that anything
and everything is possible.

What was that, Ponch?

Something must have
hit my bike.

What's the matter,
fellas? Trouble?

Sorry, Harlan.

A rock kicked up on the highway
and busted my headlight.

Hey, no problem.
Just leave it right here.

I'll have it fixed in no time.

Glad to help you.

- Okay. What's wrong?
- What do you mean?

Well, I bust my headlight,
and you're Mr. Happy Face?

Something's wrong.

Listen, how can anyone be upset

when he's just won $1,000?

Hey, that's great!
How'd you do it?

'The supermarket contest.'

You know, this is the first
thing I've ever won

in my whole life!

I suppose you're gonna
tell us that it's

because of that chain letter.

Hey! How did
you know that?

Hmm.

I win again.

Let's play
three out of five.

Okay.

- Hi, Ponch. Hi, Bobby.
- Hi, Jodi.

How you doing, kitten?
How was your day?

Super. Sergeant Getraer's
really fun to play with.

I had a little spare time.

I doubt whether that will
happen again.

Thanks for staying
with me, Sergeant Getraer.

You've been really super.

I don't know why everyone says
you're so mean.

Can I, uh, see you boys
in my office, please?

Sarge, honest, I don't know
where she could have heard that.

Hey, hey! You don't have
to apologize.

I took it as a compliment.

Gentlemen, I think you both know
Dr. Joyce Brothers.

- Oh, hello. Nice to see you.
- Hello.

The probation department
asked Dr. Brothers to come by

and have a talk with Jodi,
to see if she could

make some sense out of this
spaceman thing.

And?

I believe Jodi's
telling the truth.

What did I tell you?

- 'As she sees it.'
- What do you mean?

Well, I'm sure you know
about her David.

Yes.

Well, that's her
earthbound companion.

What more natural than to create

a space-age playmate?

'It's like having your own
extraterrestrial companion.'

'I think it shows
a lively imagination.'

The only time we really worry
is when a child

doesn't have real friends.

'But Jodi's done so splendidly
with all of you.'

As a matter of fact,
if I were an extraterrestrial

'I would choose to reveal myself
first to a child'

'because they haven't closed
their mind yet.'

How do you explain the clay
we found on her?

Well, I think this lab report
explains it for us.

Basically, it's a combination

of three different
kinds of soil

found in Southern California

mixed with several easily
obtainable chemicals.

You think she made this stuff
by herself?

How would she learn to do
something like that?

Well, that one
had me stumped, too

until I came across this
in the entertainment section

of the newspaper.

"Uncle Henry's Workshop?"

It's a Saturday morning
TV show for kids.

I called the station.

Two weeks ago,
Uncle Henry made

virtually the same substance
Jodi used.

'She must have watched
the program.'

'Why doesn't
anybody believe me?'

Everything I told
you is true!

Jodi, we want
to believe you.

If we only had something
concrete to go on.

- You mean, like evidence?
- Yeah, like evidence.

Alright.

It landed
right about there.

Alright. You stay here.

When we have to tell her
we didn't find anything

it's just going
to make matters worse.

Then let's try
to find something.

Like what?

Look at this grass area.

It's burned!

It could have been
from the heat of their engines.

It could have been
from a grass fire.

Yeah, well, look at this.

What is it?

Jodi said the UFO was resting
on three support legs.

Let's try to find
two more impressions.

- Ponch!
- Hey, we're here, man.

Let's look.

Here's another!

There's another one
over here!

A perfect triangle.

It could be anything
from tents to campers to tables.

There's a hundred
explanations!

Yeah? Well, I'm just looking
for one.

Bobby, come here.

What do you think?

Looks like a piece of quartz
...or glass.

Or sand fused
at extremely high temperature.

Like the blast
from a rocket engine?

It is possible, isn't it?

Not in my book.

Jodi...what is it?
Are you alright?

They were here.

He spoke to me.

They're coming back tonight
to take me with them.

- Jodi, listen to me.
- It's alright, Ponch.

I want to go.

Good morning, Webster.

Good morning, boys.

- Hi, Kathy.
- Hi.

Good morning, lady.

Can you believe this?

It's a miracle!

Whenever you're on time,
it's a miracle.

I'm talking about
this check.

It's a refund on my income taxes
of two years ago!

Eight hundred and fifty dollars!

I'd overpaid it
and didn't even know it!

Hey, that's terrific, Grossy.

First Harlan and now you.

Right! Hey, maybe
you'll be next.

Come on!

Of course, you guys heard

what happened to Marty Collins.

Works the B shift.

'His Porsche was stolen.
Poor guy.'

I warned him, but..

He didn't pass on
the chain letter.

Right.

Eight hundred and fifty bucks!
Wow!

Hey, everybody,
tonight the pizzas are on me!

- 'Alright!'
- 'About time, Grossy.'

And I'm gonna be the first
to dump it on him.

'Any units in the vicinity
of Third and Main..'

'...a 211 strong-arm.'

'Suspects escaped
in a red Sedan'

'headed east on Third.'

LA 15, Mary 9
and 10 responding.

We're two away.

Now, which way
did they go?

Thank you.
Arigato.

One more time. Now..

One more time, please.

What did he looklike?

Have you got that, Grossy?

You're kidding!

How you doing
on those rip-off artists?

We can't get
close enough, sarge.

We stick out like a sore thumb
in that neighborhood!

That's what I figured.

I'd like you to meet
Sergeants Joy Fujino

and Earl Sakai.

- Hello.
- Hi, Joy, how are you?

- Earl, nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

They're from
the Asian Task Force

LAPD.

They've been working
on the same case

for the last
couple of weeks.

Those punks have been hitting

a lot of Japanese tourists
in that area.

Why don't they carry
traveler's checks?

This couple lost
a lot of cash!

Language, customs.
It's all strange to them.

Cash feels safe.

I wish there was more
we could do to help.

Hey, you don't think
I asked the sergeants

here to come by for tea,
do you?

Oh!

I don't know, Pete. Maybe we've
come back here too many times.

Ah, and you want to pass
something like this up?

It's cherry pickin' time.

- Okay. Maybe once more.
- Go for it.

Here we go, Joy.
It's going down.

'They're coming
right at her.'

S-3 to covering units.
It's going down.

'15 Mary, 9 and 10, move in.'

'15 Mary, 6 and 7, move in.'

Police! Hold it!
The police!

Hold it!

I got him.

Get your hands
over your head.

Alright, sarge!

Okay, which one are we
gonna sleep with tonight?

I don't care.

How about him?
He's adorable.

- He's fine.
- I'm off tomorrow.

We could go to the zoo. Maybe
we could see some real bears.

- Tomorrow?
- Sure.

- Anybody home?
- 'Come on in.'

- Hi, Kathy.
- 'Hey.'

A little early for bed,
isn't it?

I'm kind of tired.

Yeah.

Well, goodnight, Jodi.

We'll talk about the zoo
tomorrow, okay?

Goodnight.

You're gonna be
safe here, kitten.

Nobody's gonna
take you anywhere.

You don't understand, Ponch.

I wanna go.

I know things
don't look good right now.

But you just got
to hang in there.

They're going
to get better. I promise.

I'm really tired.

I'm gonna go to sleep.

I may have one bit
of good news.

Good.

I sure can use it.

- Jodi's mother called.
- Where is she?

Vegas. She doesn't know
why she ran.

But she's coming home
and she wants to make things

right with Jodi.

Have you told her?

There was no reaction.

Like it didn't matter anymore.

Hey, come on, you guys.

Thanks for helping

but why don't you go home

and get some rest?

You're gonna be okay?

Yeah, man, I'm gonna be okay.
Come on.

I'll just check on Jodi
before I go.

Alright.

You're gonna miss her,
won't you?

Yeah, I guess so.

I'm just glad
her mother's coming home.

'Ponch! Bobby!'

She's gone.

I know where she's gone.

Jodi, it's okay.

Come on.
I'll take you home.

I'm scared, Ponch.
I'm scared!

Don't worry. I won't let
anything happen to you.

I didn't mean
what I said.

I don't want to go!

Don't let them take me!

Aa-aah!

Ponch! Please help me!

You're not gonna take her!

Leave her alone!

She tried to help you!

If you care about her,
let her go!

Leave her where
she belongs!

Ponch, help me!

Ponch!

Let her go!

Whoever you are,
let her go!

I saw it, but I still
don't believe it.

Then come up
with a better answer.

I don't know.

It could have been
a tornado of some kind.

'Or a helicopter.'

'Jodi.'

Tell me the truth.

'Your ET..'

...is he the same
as your friend David?

No.

David wasn't real.

'It's the helicopter.'

Bobby, it's whatever
you want it to be.

I thought you were
due in court.

Yeah, we are.
We got to get goin'.

- Hi, Jodi.
- Hi, Ponch.

Look, I-I just...wanted
to tell you

that...no matter
what happens in court today

I-I certainly owe
you all far more

than-than I could ever repay.

Seeing you and Jodi together
is all the payment we need.

Well, I'm gonna try to be
a better mom.

Uh, if we're gonna be
in court on time

we better move it.

Hey, you guys are never
going to believe what I found.

The chain letters!

Yeah. Found them
behind Jenny's desk.

She went on vacation last week

and must have forgotten
to mail them.

Oh, no!

What difference
does it make, Grossy?

You still have the $850.

Not exactly.

It was for another
Arthur Grossman.
