All language subtitles for Ironside s06e24 The best laid plans

Peace out.

You've got to invest some of your
surplus funds.

Cold cash gives me a warm feeling.

But it's not working for you.

Now, I figured out a program... Walter,
I'm a criminologist, not a financier.

Precisely. And since we're not dealing
with a crime, will you kindly let me

handle the finances?

Hands down.

Keep the door locked.

Lady, don't let your foot touch that
alarm button.

No, sir.

Get up slowly.

Act normal.

Walk back to the toes cage. You too.

Okay, this one.

Keep quiet.

Now, head back.

Okay. Slowly.

Turn around.

Now, the rest of you, keep your cool.

Okay, I got him. Let's go, my dear.

Come on, move.

Hey, you.

Uh -huh.

Okay, now, I don't have to spell out
what's coming down here.

Nobody gets uptight, and nobody gets
hurt. Got it?

Hey, what are you doing? The blind. It's
jammed. We'll have to get a ladder. No,

straighten them out. You're wasting
time. But somebody else... Move! You're

wasting time!

You and you, get over there and set
those desks.

My desk is over there. Shut up. You do
what I tell you. Move.

All right, now, let's just act

natural. Sit down. Draw some pictures or
something, huh?

Keep your head down and don't look out
the window. Do you understand me?

headache when he wakes up grab the door
and cover them

when

i tell you

California Commercial Bank. Good
afternoon.

Um, she's not at her desk right now. Can
I take a message?

All right. Thank you.

Very good, sister.

You got the job done.

Don't answer that phone unless one of us
is on it.

And I think you're being very scanty,
Bob. You should... You, sit down. You,

over here.

Well, I'm sorry to break in on you like
this, Mr. Eustace.

We'll try not to be too long, huh?

Too bad you couldn't get your business
done during banking hours.

If I'm in your way, I'll only be too
happy to leave.

Oh, I'll bet.

Hey, I ought to be getting at that door.

Now, just stay put.

Make some small talk like a man talking
to his banker.

Okay, you keep an eye on them, huh?

All right, ladies and gentlemen, let's
go. In the ball. Come on, move.

Just try to sit in there nice and quiet.

It won't be too long here.

No, Mark, he isn't.

I don't expect him back much before
five.

All right, later.

I mean, you talk about your beehives of
industry.

Well, when the cat's away... I know. The
mice will run out the time clock.

Has all crime stopped in San Francisco?
Are our streets safe? Have all felons

been apprehended? Well, hello, Chief.

Ed was just talking about you. Oh,
that's funny. That's very funny.

I thought so.

Why does it always sound better when he
says that? I'll never understand.

Where'd he go?

I went to thank.

Putting or taking?

Well, when he left, he was in a pretty
grumpy mood. He's taking.

Oh, would you get that for me, please?
Why don't I get that for you?

Chief Ironside's office.

I'm sorry, sir, he isn't here at the
moment, but I think we know where we can

reach him.

Yes, sir.

I'll tell him he called.

Bye.

Commissioner Randall, he will call back.

Oh, the commissioner? I better get a
hold of the chief.

Where's the phone book?

He said it wasn't important.

But still!

Fran, you said he was in a pretty grumpy
mood.

Now, do you really want to interrupt
him?

Oh, well, on second thought.

All right, keep this casual, Walter.

Casual? Where are the alarms?

Behind each telestation.

Anywhere else?

Under Mrs. Gracie's desk.

No chance.

The main vault is wired on a different
system.

And there's one under the drawer of my
desk.

Your office?

Yes.

One chance, then.

Can't rush a job like this, man.

Everything cool?

Why not?

Good.

Oh! Whoa!

Hey, Walter!

I need... Hey, get back.

What's the matter with him? It's hard.
Angina. Pills.

In my desk. What are you?

It's his heart. He needs help. Get him
back in his office. No way.

He needs to lie down.

Hey, we ought to do something.

We're going to be conked out if somebody
sees him laying there. All right. Keep

an eye on that broad. You cover the
door. Come on.

Come on.

Did you find him yet?

No.

You're wasting your time, you know. We
jumped the alarm.

Oh, come on, Bert. You know that Chief
Ironside fan.

So what? So what?

So nailing him isn't such a good idea.

Look, if I do, he'll get a little upset.
A little? If I don't, he'll shoot me

out for dereliction of duty.

I'll tell you what.

We'll circle.

Act like we missed it the first time.

Marco, you're just putting it on.

As long as possible.

Okay.

Better, huh?

That was a real smart idea.

Whose was it?

No, I don't think it was yours, Mr.
Eustace.

Bank managers don't think that way, do
they?

No, you, huh?

You're the one with all the brains
around here.

Big businessman.

What's your line?

Civic improvement.

Sounds kind of dull.

I find it interesting and a good deal
safer than robbing banks.

You, uh...

Won't keep us long, will you?

What difference does it make?

No difference.

You, uh, you stay real cool, don't you?
Frankly, I find this quite an

exhilarating experience.

Certainly beats a dull business
conference.

I'll bet.

What, uh, what business conference?

Oh, usual thing.

Oh, you expect it someplace, huh?

Well, to be.

absolutely truthful with you. I'm late
now.

Cancel it. No, no, I won't be missed.
Oh, that's okay. Maybe they'll miss you

and they'll want to track you down.

You call them. Cancel them.

Good afternoon, Chief. Oh, Miss Belden.

Cancel my meeting.

The rest of my appointments this
afternoon.

Oh, yes, sir. And call Carl Reese.

Tell him I'll meet him at the game
tonight.

You'll meet him at the game?

Have him get two more tickets.

I'm taking the Stanhopes. You get that?

Yes, sir.

Repeat it.

Get two more tickets for the Stanhopes.
Good.

See you later.

Goodbye.

Chief, the commissioner called.

Chief? How?

We'll be able to make the game. Well,
now, that depends on you.

He made no sense.

No sense at all. Who did? The chief. I'd
like to hear you say that to his face.

He called me Miss Belding.

One of his official days.

And I couldn't even get a word in.

Sounds normal to me.

Clear his calendar, he said.

Of what?

Dentist appointment.

Still normal.

I tell you, if you'd only heard him.

Lieutenant Reese, please.

Will you give him a message, please?

There's a black and white outside. The
second sound. Go and get it, Travis.

Right.

Open up, will you?

We're closed.

Come on, come on.

I'm not supposed to open this door.

I know, I know.

Listen. Is there a guy in there? A big
man in a wheelchair?

Yeah, he's in the back with the manager.

Well, he's Chief Ironside.

That van belongs to him.

It's over parked.

Now, I don't want to give him a
citation, but I'll have to if... I'll

what. Look, why don't you put this in a
meter for me?

I'll get it from him later, okay?

Yeah, I guess so.

Thanks.

Same Ironside? You know any other cop on
wheels?

What are we going to do?

Nothing. Nothing?

With a cop in here?

Can you think of a better hostage?

Especially him?

Robert T.

Businessman, huh?

Civic improvement?

Fairly accurate description of my
profession, wouldn't you say, Walter?

To the point.

What about the phone call?

It was your idea.

You tried to get a message through,
right?

With you listening.

Now, anything goes wrong here.

You'll be the first to get it.

One of the hazards of my profession.

Nothing yet?

It's too early.

Settle down, will you?

Why don't you just go stand someplace
else?

Wow. Hey, you can talk.

You want to talk about something? Like
the weather, maybe? Hey, come on now.

What are you so bugged about?

This ain't your money, you know. I don't
like to be pushed around.

California Commercial Bank, good
afternoon.

Um, she's not at her desk right now. May
I take a message?

All right, thank you very much.

That's pretty good.

Now, how'd I do, huh?

Excellent.

Keep that up and we'll cut you in on it.

Thanks, appreciate it.

All right, Pat, where do you think
you're going?

Get back over there.

You can finish your little business
chat, huh?

Anything yet?

Nothing. You keep an eye on them.

I don't understand.

What are they waiting for?

Walter, I wish I knew.

Okay, on your feet.

Now, I know it takes two keys to open up
the cash drawers in the vault.

You've got one of them.

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

Your husband's name is Albert. He picks
you up at 5 .30.

Two kids, one in the sixth grade, one in
high school. I know what I'm talking

about, sweetheart.

Now, hand it over.

You too.

I'm sorry, Mr. Eustace. You have no
choice.

I'm sure the bank wouldn't expect us to
do anything foolish, sir.

Just do as you usually do, Gerald.

Yes, sir. That's right, Gerald.

Now, I know that vault's wired.

The alarm goes off, you're both going to
get killed. We won't do anything, I

promise. I'm not going to get killed for
this bank, not after 24 years.

Very good.

That way you can live to get your
retirement, right?

This may sound strange, but I'm
relieved.

At least something's happening.

Yes.

But what?

Hey.

You go on. Nowhere. You're right. Now
get back there.

How long you been on the street?

What are you talking about? You know,
there's always a certain look.

How long? One month? Two? Five?

Satisfied? Two falls.

No, probably three.

Felony reps.

You got the badge. Look it up.

This one will be your last.

I told you, get back there.

Hey, man.

Don't let him bring you down.

Don't give me advice, punk.

I guess we all have to take orders, huh?

Nah.

We're a team.

We're all together in this.

If you get lucky, maybe we all end up in
the same cell, huh?

Why are they moving so slowly?

They could have been long gone.

Waiting for a getaway car?

Not this long.

Walter, how much will they get out of
the vault?

Oh, not a rough guess.

Somewhere between 15 and 20 ,000. This
is a small branch bank.

That amount is too small for this kind
of risk.

Well, they certainly seem to know what
they're doing.

If you're implying that I don't, you're
right.

Why did the chief say he'd be back?

Where'd he go, anyway?

Well, he had an appointment at the bank,
and then he was going to the dentist.

But after that phone call, I haven't the
vaguest idea what he's up to.

Where's the chief?

Out. Hi, Carl. Carl.

Hi. You know anything about this? Yeah,
I left the message myself.

The chief asked me to.

Well, the game's a sellout. Where am I
going to get two extra tickets? You got

friends at a news bank that's calling?

I called everybody that owes me a favor,
not a chance. That's going to go over

big with the chief.

Stanhope's. Stanhope.

You know him?

Never heard of him.

Stanhope. Well, the way the chief spoke,
I assumed you knew him.

Only Stanhope's I ever met was three
years ago.

I sent him up for bank robbery.

The whole conversation.

It's only about one word.

You remind me of a guy that's been stood
up.

Yeah.

I have plenty of time.

For what?

What are you waiting for?

There's so much cash in those drawers
over there. Why don't you clean those

Chicken feed.

It's chicken feed.

Look, my share of this heist will net me
more money than you can count in one

whole week.

You're going to spend the rest of your
life looking over your shoulder.

Life ain't that much.

Oh, come on. You're too young to give
up.

Give up?

Nah.

Not with that kind of money. What can
that buy you?

Some good times?

Some girls?

I'm married.

Oh.

Does your wife know that you do this for
a hobby?

Well, she doesn't live with me right
now, you know.

Yeah, well, that shows some taste on her
part.

You're a smart broad, you know what I
mean?

A real smart broad.

I'm smart enough not to get mixed up in
anything so stupid as it is.

It had to be done, you know, with
Carmen.

She likes nice things.

I'm working on a radio show. I mean, how
much could I give her?

You are really dumb.

You're looking for a belt in the mouth.

Did your wife promise you that she'd
come back to you if you hit it big?

She sure did.

Did she tell you how long that she'd
stay around after it's all gone?

Hey, what are you looking at?

Then she could count in a week.

Nine out of this bank.

Walter, when do you have to meet
payrolls? When does it... You start to

Get over there and draw us a picture.

Go on.

Come on, come on.

Hey, leave that alone.

Take it easy. You do what I tell you to
do.

California Commercial Bank. Good
afternoon.

Uh, one moment, please.

For Mr. Houston.

Houston speaking.

I see.

Well, uh... When? When?

How long will it be?

Or can you make any delivery at all
today?

All right.

Thank you for calling.

The armored car with the payroll money
for tomorrow has had some kind of a

breakdown. Won't be here for about an
hour. An hour?

Well, we can't hang around here another
hour.

Why that?

Well, you said we'll be out of here by 3
.30. Now, you said.

So now I'm saying we'll be out of here
by 4 .30. No sweat, my man.

No?

You're praying pretty well for 30
minutes. Can you do as well for another

Yeah, we can last it out. What are you
getting so cocky about?

Are you stuck here?

That's it. But so are you stuck here.

And that's it.

This is Reese.

Have we got a black and white near?

Second and Elm. Second and Elm?

I'm Ian.

Still no answer from the van.

Go ahead, Lieutenant.

Hello, this is Lieutenant Reese.

How far are you from the California
Commercial Bank?

Parked right around the corner.

Is Chief Ironside's van anywhere around
there?

Yeah, right in front.

How's it look? Any trouble?

No, all quiet.

What's going on, Lieutenant?

When I find out, you'll be the first to
know.

Okay, so he's still in the bank.

Yeah, and in trouble, I bet.

Should we take a chance and call him
there? No.

No. First we find out what kind of
trouble.

How much will the armored car bring,
Walter?

Oh, about $35 ,000.

So this makes a little more sense now.

This isn't the only stop the car makes,
is it? No.

It delivers to about 20 other banks on
this side of the city.

Some having to handle larger payrolls
than you, I'm sure.

Sure, much like... Bob, the car?

They want the car?

What's in it, of course? Three quarters
of a million, at least.

Something wrong?

What? Something wrong.

Oh, no, no, it's okay.

That was the visual.

Hey, don't be looking out this window so
much. People in those stores over there

probably know the regular guard. They're
not looking this way.

Hey!

Do what I tell you.

There's nothing to see anyway.

You don't think so, huh?

Well, maybe you never looked out of a
window.

Who are you kidding? A small one with
bars across it that you look through.

Sometimes you had to get on your toes to
do it.

What you could see across the way was a
thousand other windows with bars and

faces inside looking out too.

Another trouble with you, Bolton.

You never learn the ropes.

When I was in the can, I had a cell with
a view.

When I'm finished with this job and I'm
all set up, I'm going to have me a view

like you never saw.

I'm going to build a house that's wide
open.

No walls, all glass.

And I'm going to sit inside and just
look out. Just sit there and look out

forever. Well, that's great.

Only trouble is, everybody looks in. I
don't care.

Just so long as I can see that it's wide
open.

Just so long as there are no more walls.

Now this is going to pay off.

Now you said it was going to pay off.
Yeah.

And it will. Then you can bake the
biggest fishbowl in the world, huh?

What are you cutting pennies for?

Hey, $16 ,000. That's not bad at all.

She sent money.

Hey, mister.

Is it true you're a cop?

Yes. If you don't mind my asking, can't
you do anything about this?

We can't all be as good as you are.

Now, don't lose your nerve. You're doing
fine so far.

Inside, I'm like a bowl of jelly.

Don't believe it.

She's feisty.

You know what he's doing this for?

Some spoiled kid.

Hey, what are you talking about?

You don't know my wife.

You told me.

If she wants so much, let her go work
for it. The young man's old -fashioned.

He still believes women should be
pampered.

So where have you been for the last five
years?

Prison, maybe.

Not me.

Never taken any kind of fall? No, and I
won't either. Nobody's gonna get caught

here. The success of a bank holdup
depends on exact timing.

Ha! Look who's giving me lessons, huh?
It was a good plan.

Yeah, it still is a good plan. Not
anymore.

Every extra minute is working against
you.

And every unexplained interruption.

We're closed.

It's after three.

I'm from the main office.

I have to see Mr. Eustace.

All right, all right.

You do watch yourself.

This is against the rules, miss.

Well, I know. I'm sorry.

But I have some papers for Mr. Eustace
to sign.

Oh, yeah. Back there with a customer.

Thank you.

I'm sorry to interrupt, sir, but the
main office needs your signature.

Of course.

Oh, this is Chief Ironside.

Chief, this will only take a moment.

Oh, that's all right. I've got plenty of
time.

Now, anything else?

No, sir.

Hold it.

I beg your pardon? Come on, come on.

Let him have them.

She just asked me to sign them. Your
imagination is working overtime.

May I have them back?

Get over there and sit down.

Do as he asks, miss.

Bank is being robbed.

There are three men here.

You see, miss, it's about 45 minutes to
shut them.

Maybe you'll want to party, you know, is
that?

What happened? I don't know.

I'll remember that. There.

Hey, what are you doing?

Getting edgy?

What do you think I'm going to do?

I'm sorry, miss. This must be a great
shock to you.

I didn't realize.

I'll try not to worry.

You won't be hurt.

Nothing, uh...

Broken, I hope.

My compact.

Too bad.

There's a robbery in progress at the
California Commercial Bank.

I want two cars to block off the traffic
at the intersection of 2nd and Morton

and Elm and 4th. Repeat.

Roger, Unit 90.

Roadblocks at 2nd and Morton, Elm and
4th. Units en route. Get me 20 men,

plainclothes. Meet me on 2nd, around the
corner from the bank.

20 detectives to meet you at 2nd and
Morton, ETA, 10 minutes.

Couldn't see too much, but everything
looked quiet. Did you get anything on

bug? Three of them in there, armed.

And something's gonna happen in 45
minutes.

Any idea what?

All I know is that's all the time we've
got.

Then they come out or we go in.

Don't touch it. Leave it alone.

But the bank is supposed to be open.

Maybe something about the armored car.

Shut up. Shut up.

Don't just stand there. Get over there.
Move.

I'm not going up again, Travis.

You blow this and I'll kill you.

We'll be hanging around here too long.
Maybe we should take what we have and

split it, huh?

What, that?

Yeah, that's enough for me.

Yeah? Well, not for me, my man.

I put too much sweat into this. Now we
wait, you understand?

We stay until the truck gets here. What
if it takes longer than the hour?

What if it doesn't show up at all?

It will.

You think about it.

Me, I can stay here all night.

and get lost.

Pay him off and get going. Wait a
minute.

Move along, will you, please?

Mr.

Flowers?

No, no, thank you. Look, there's a man
coming up from behind you. Now, he's

going to take over for you for a while.

Now, why don't you just move around the
corner?

What do you mean, take over? Look,
mister, I really don't need a hard time.

Okay? Yes, sir.

want me to do? Go out and drag that
truck in here?

Big man.

Big ideas.

Hey, how was I supposed to figure the
truck was going to break down?

All you got to figure now is how we get
out of this if that truck doesn't show.

You want to walk out of here? Go on. I'm
not going to stop you. We could all

walk out now.

You two are. Well, it's better than
nothing. Bolton, you are on your last

Now, where are you going to run on five
lousy grand?

At least I'll be running.

We started this together.

I'm not going to settle.

We stay and finish it.

You know, I almost wish they'd take that
money and go.

This pressure's getting too much for me.

You are not alone, Walter.

Can't you reroute traffic along, Gary? I
need more time.

I can't move.

All cars for two blocks around checked
out clean. No drivers waiting.

They had their owner to be parked out
front.

Okay, okay.

We'll do the best we can.

We're getting pressure to move in.

Carl, there are innocent people in
there. We can't just go blasting our way

If only we knew what they were up to,
what they're waiting for.

Maybe the wheel man chickened out.

He wouldn't still be there.

Chief says 45 minutes.

There's 20 left.

And then we move in.

We have to.

What are you doing there? Nothing. You
said to look busy.

What are you going to do, wave out the
window like a flag? I'll bust you in a

muck. Leave him alone.

You sit down and shut up.

That's according to plan two.

And don't you start.

Get it all figured out.

Now it's breaking down.

Every minute, something new, something
you hadn't counted on. Now what's going

to happen next?

We're still here and the truck is still
coming. The truck.

You'll risk anything.

Sacrifice anyone for that truck. Yeah,
750 ,000. You. Will you give up your

share to keep from taking that last
fall?

And you.

You going to hold out, risk getting
caught, against what's for the taking

Never mind what he wants.

What do you want?

Hey.

Shut up!

And that would be murder one.

He's getting you in deeper and deeper.

We're running out.

Look, if they had any kind of escape
plan, it's blown by now.

We have to move. Yeah, I know. I'll
shoot our way in. No, we could offer

chance to surrender.

They'll have hostages, man.

Okay, so we'll take things one at a
time.

Lieutenant, there's a tank truck at the
roadblock.

They want to get through. They got a
delivery to make. I don't care. Wait a

minute, wait a minute.

Where, the California commercial? Yeah.

Yeah. Any timetable outside?

No. They wanted to know what was going
on here first.

Chief?

Not against three of them.

What are you talking about?

Oh, time, weather, you name it.

You are pushing me, Ironside.

Time is pushing you.

Among other things.

Hey, get back over there where you
belong. I want out.

Me too.

What are you talking about?

Well, look, we split what we got and...

Like I said, we're not for himself. And
right now. You're talking about

splitting peanuts. I am telling you.
Look, you told us and you told us, but

we're still here.

Yeah, we still got time. We can still
get out. Yeah, well, that means getting

out with nothing. Nothing.

That's enough.

Getting out is enough. Hey, what about
the truck? You got to have me with the

truck. Forget the truck.

We take what we can get.

Okay, we'll do that.

That means splitting nothing then,
right?

What? It is staying easy, that's all.

I could have called this. Big deal for
the first time you like to call

right.

You, on your feet.

Get their guns.

Come on, come on.

I can't.

You do like I tell you, honey.

I'll do it.

I have sense enough not to do anything
foolish.

Yeah, well, you better.

Just throw it over here.

Both of you.

They'll be stupid.

You tell me.

Don't move.

Don't even breathe.

You'll be dead before I will.

Now, over there with them.

Walter, will you get it, please?

All right.

Sorry I'm late.

No, you're right on time.

Yeah.

See, I told you they're coming. You blew
this.

You blew it.

Blew it when you began it.

All right, Ed. Mark.

Let's go.

Not the referee.

It was a bad call.

I repeat, we bet on the game and not the
referee. It was still a bad call.

Sounds like what you want. I was robbed.

Did you hear that? He was robbed. Not a
scheme. He was, personally.

You gonna pay up or not?

Don't forget to give the referee his
cut.

A dollar? Now you mean to tell me that
all of this agony is over one dollar

bill? Perhaps you have independent
means.

But I have to work very hard for each
and every one of these. Now you know why

he was such a tiger at the back.

It was his money they were trying to
steal.
