Chief, you've got clout upstairs.

Get the commissioner off my back, will
you?

Carl, when an elected official is
murdered in his bed, the mayor gets

That makes the commissioner nervous. And
when he gets nervous... Re -Remington

case. Please send report.

Re -Remington case. Send report
immediately.

Re -Remington. What's going on down
there?

National will have my hide.

What is going on?

Hard evidence, none.

Theories, a few.

None very good. Pick the best.

Man's happily married, nothing on the
side, so rule out a crime of passion.

unopposed for three times.

Rule out political revenge.

Nothing was taken. Rule out robbery.

Unless what was taken was valuable only
to the murderer.

Welcome to the case, Chief.

Excuse me, Lieutenant.

Nothing yet, Mr. Bowman. I'm sorry.

I had this feeling that today may be...
I told you, Mr. Bowman, soon as

something breaks, we'll give you a call.
So why don't you go home?

I'm sorry I bother you.

What was that all about?

His daughter was murdered two weeks ago.
Dead end case.

But he's been haunting us ever since.

Daly Reese.

Yeah, get back to the Remington house. I
don't care how many times you've been

there. I'll be in touch.

Yeah, look for notes, letters,
notebooks.

Thank you.

Mr. Bullen.

Mr. Bullen, the department is doing
everything it can.

I know, but I wait.

Where are you from?

Virginia.

I was a coal miner.

I got black lung.

You know black lung?

My doctor said, get fresh air. Move to
Salinas.

Your family there?

My children.

My other children.

My wife died four years ago.

You can do them more good there than
here, you know.

I cannot go home if I don't find who
killed my little girl.

You are a big man with the police.

Everybody treats you with respect.

Not always.

Maybe you helped find who killed my
Wanda.

If you need a court order, get a court
order.

No!

What about it?

That's exactly the question I was going
to ask you.

Any more questions, Chief?

What's been done?

The usual.

We'll keep it in the open fire.

It'll turn yellow with all the others.

Come on, Chief. You know how many men
I've gotten with snowed under with the

Remington case.

Is her father satisfied with that?

No.

Neither am I.

It seems...

Picture.

We'll change.

You're such a funny girl.

You're a funny girl.

Come on, Fran, you gotta know something.

Not a thing.

I had 48 hours coming. Fishing gear all
packed. I was just leaving the

apartment. I made the mistake of
answering the phone.

Uh -huh.

Hey, Ed, what's this all about?

You too, huh?

Me too, what? You gotta hurry up and
call from the chief. Yeah, well, that's

right. I'm doing some legwork on the
Madison case. Then he called me back.

And back you are.

And back I am. Oh, uh, good morning,
Chief.

Hello, Chief. Morning.

You all nailed to the floor. You're
simply huddling there for body warmth.

Any of you huddlers know anything about
this case?

You just put me on the Madison case.
Hold him. That came through about two

ago. What's your excuse?

Files. Draw the files.

Eleven arrests filed. I have conviction
for listening.

Good to make, Chief. Where's the heat
coming from? The heat is coming from me.

When I was a rookie, I was taught there
was to be equal justice for all. It's

still the same way, Chief.

Almost. Almost is not enough.

You know, she wasn't important. She was
a nobody.

A hustler in a town loaded with
hustlers.

Who is putting her down? She was just
doing her own thing.

Then how about us doing our own thing?

Ed?

Harry? How can you eat in a place like
this?

You ought to see where we ate when we
were interns.

Got the Boland report?

Yeah.

Yeah? Who did the work?

According to that, I did.

And you don't remember?

There were 12 ,000 deaths last year. One
-third died of unnatural causes, and

all of them wound up here on our table.
I know the stats.

That comes to 10 a day, just under 70 a
week.

I'll read this later.

What do you think?

You don't have to think on this one. The
facts all lay out.

Fractured skull, massive hemorrhage.
Yeah, she didn't last long. Fractured

skull, how?

Hit the back of her head on something?

According to the report.

How'd she do that?

A bruise on the side of the jaw.

She probably caught a hard right.

No other marks, signs of a struggle?

No, and no evidence of sexual activity.

Somebody killed the hooker. What's the
hassle?

That.

Somebody killed.

Paid our rent on time, set the TV low,
only complained a little about the heat.

Not from the cops, from the furnace.

I presume you were friendly with her.

Are you kidding?

She thought she was too good for me.

Listen, I'm a hard -working guy.

That tramp treated me like I was dirt or
something.

Did she have any regular visitors?

Looked right through me like I wasn't
even alive.

What about visitors?

I don't get paid to keep track.

May I have the key?

Are you done with me? I'm watching TV.

A mystery. I gotta find out how it ends.

Don't we all?

Hello, Katie.

What are they knocking you up for,
officer?

Katie, you're going to need all the
friends you can get.

So start making them.

Yes, ma 'am.

Do you know a girl by the name of Wanda
Bolin?

No.

Are you being friendly?

Hey, does anybody know a Bolin?

She knows her.

Will she cooperate?

I don't know.

I'll ask her nicely.

If she doesn't answer, turn around.

I'll ask her again.

Well, that didn't take long.

The morgue didn't have much, but I'd say
if I could help you.

Seen her to climb, for what it's worth.

Not the kind of pad that'd turn me on.

She lived here, too. It reflects her.

Not what she did.

Reading taste was pretty specific.

All romances.

Guess where she hid her head.

Must have been slugged about right here.

Can't get those stickers anywhere but
Mexico.

Brand new. Never been worn.

Bought it herself or a gift.

Will she get a Ford to go to Mexico?

All right.

Digging the files.

See if we can get any more on her prior
arrests.

Maybe a tie -in with one of her tricks.

You through here?

All I wanted was to get a feel of the
place.

They're all alike.

This one is different.

It's all right, Lucille.

Hello, Robert.

Mother, Carrie, you look wonderful.

If you're like middle -aged women.

To me, you will always look young.

You want a favor?

Yes, I do.

I'm looking for a girl.

My chickens flew the coop years ago,
Robert. You know that?

Yes. And the minute I saw the van pull
up, I closed down the game.

Game? Oh, come on, Robert.

It took you a long time to get to the
front door.

Middle age afflicts us all.

What's this about a girl?

Her name was Wanda Bolin.

She was murdered a couple of weeks ago.

Didn't read about it.

All she read was about that much on page
17.

What's so special about her?

Nothing special.

I'm just a cop doing a cop's job.

Wanda? Bowling.

She was probably in somebody's stable.

Probably.

Want some coffee?

No, thanks.

Hard stuff's right behind you.

No, thanks.

This is Mother Carrie.

What do you care about my health?

Wanda Bolin.

She was killed a couple of weeks ago.
Who'd you work for?

Oh, Bull.

Wants to be coped.

Now hear me and hear me well.

Either I get a name or...

The girl sure didn't have much taste.

She worked for Billy Nero.

That's Nero.

A little obvious, isn't it?

It's authentic.

Who are you, Caligula?

Anthony.

Almost as obvious.

Look, Mr. Nero doesn't know anything
about Wanda Bolan. The last time he saw

was over a month ago. Mother carried her
contact to you. Now, that was pretty

fast. Mr. Nero can't tell you anything.

Why not? She worked for him. No, she
quit long before... Before what?

They had a fight. About what? I don't
know. Listen, I've got work to do.

You go right ahead.

I won't get in your way.

You won't listen.

Talking to you is like talking to a
wall.

I don't like what I hear.

So who cares what you don't hear? I
care.

That big mouth of yours is going to get
you into a lot of trouble. Oh, so what's

so different about that?

A girl works for me. She don't walk out.
I throw her out.

I don't work for you anymore.

Hey, I'll tell you when you don't work
for me.

You're repeating yourself, Billy.

Mr. Nero.

Please, all my girls, call me Mr. Nero.
Well, let me repeat myself.

I'm not one of your girls.

What are you fighting me for? Why?

Will you just get off my back, all
right?

Baby, look.

It's heavy money.

What's wrong with it?

I have to pay too much to get it.

Pay, pay, pay. What pay?

Okay, okay, okay. Look.

I'll go a whole new wardrobe for you.

You work Miami, Reno, Las Vegas.

I like Frisco.

I'll put you where the real money is.

I'm not interested.

Get interested.

Do you remember, uh, Rose Delaney?

Do you remember how they found her in
the desert?

Now, you listen to me, you dumb tramp.

When I tell you... Don't you call me no
dumb tramp.

Hey, I'll call you what I like, when I
like, you understand me? Now, say it.

Say, dumb tramp.

Say, dumb tramp.

How do you break it?

For the last time,

you walk out on me and they'll hear you
scream in Kansas.

And I'll be screaming your name, Billy.

Come in.

Oh, good evening, Mr. Boland.

May I bother you?

Not at all.

Come in.

Sit down, have some coffee.

If it's no trouble.

No trouble at all.

You look tired.

I was born tired.

Sitting in headquarters all day isn't
doing you any good, you know.

You're not a father?

I'm a father all my life. First to
little brothers and sisters.

Then to children.

Sit down.

Tell me about Wanda.

When she was a little girl.

After she came to San Francisco.

Did she ever write to you?

Every week.

She sends money always.

A waitress.

In big city makes more than a bean
picker.

Get big tip.

I work hard, but extra money helps.

Did she ever write to you about any men
she was going with? Mention any names?

She only asks how brother does in
school.

How I feel.

How he sits there.

Did she ever write to you about any...

Any parties she'd been to.

Most times she writes about the ocean.

How it is cleaner than coal mine or bean
field.

She always writes, come and live by
ocean.

I write back, telling her, I have to
make a living.

You have more... questions than other
police.

It means you help.

I can't promise anything. I'll do the
best I can.

It's more than I could ask.

I take much of your time.

Just one thing I cannot get in my head.

Why would anyone want to harm my
daughter?

Good night, Mr. Ironside.

Good night, Mr. Bone.

Try to get some rest.

I think for the first time in a long
time, I will sleep well tonight.

Who was that?

Wanda Boland's father.

You look so tired.

So do I.

What do you have?

Oh, um... Wanda didn't make friends
easily.

She only had one that I could find out
about so far.

A girl by the name of Betty.

That narrows it down to a few thousand.

I spent all day at R &I.

Sixteen probables.

Divide them up with Mark.

Can you come up with anything?

Went into the beat cops in the
neighborhood store. She was quiet.

anybody any trouble.

See?

We've got nothing to go on.

We've got her.

The more I learn about her, the closer
I'll get to him.

Now, according to statistics... Wanda
was not the statistic.

She was a human being.

Yes, sir.

That's about all for tonight.

See you in the morning.

Fran.

Fran, it's bad enough to live as a
nobody.

But when a person dies, they deserve
more than a sheet of paper in a police

file.

Elizabeth Cummings? I'm Elizabeth
Cummings. Also known as Betty Cummings.

I'm Mark Sanger.

Any problem, officer?

No. May I come in?

Of course.

Wow. A school teacher's pay must have
gone up sometimes again. What do you

Information, teacher.

I'm not used to the police breaking into
my apartment. Hey, I didn't break in

and it's not a bust.

There wouldn't be any reason for one.
Hey, sister.

Miss Cummings.

Miss Cummings, I have been walking my
legs off running you down, so let's not

play any games.

It so happens I'm expecting a friend.
And I need information. Either I get it

here or we go downtown.

Listen, brother.

Officer Sanger.

I guess that makes us even.

But you were coming on a car. I need
some information about Wanda Boland.

Wanda. The desk clerk downstairs
remembers her, says she visited you

often.

She was a friend.

How long did you know her?

About two years.

Did she ever talk about any of her
tricks?

Her what?

Hey, now, don't back up when we're just
getting friendly.

We just talked about things.

places we'd like to go, things we'd like
to do.

Did she walk any regular turf?

Around, but mostly the dock area.

Docks, that's kind of dangerous, isn't
it? Not to her, I guess.

Anyway, she went for that type.

Men who go down to the sea in ships, she
called them.

Any other types?

Yeah, losers.

All she could do was pick losers.

Did she?

Have any regular place that she hung up.
You know, to go... Listen, what are you

bugging me for?

Why aren't you out looking for the man
who killed her?

I guess my chief says, and I never argue
with him, the more we know about her,

the closer we get to him.

There is a place she went almost every
night.

A diner close to her pad.

If you can think of anything else, would
you please give me a call?

Sure. Thanks.

Next time you come around, call first.

Don't come.

I always say, I mind my own business.

Everybody else minds theirs. We get
along fine.

Trouble is, other people's business is
how I make a living.

I guess it is different with a police
fund.

Tell me more about Wanda.

You just about got it all.

Sometimes when she was the only one in
the place, I would go sit with her.

You seemed to like her.

What made her different?

That is a tough question. I mean, she
was a good girl inside.

Warm, friendly?

Oh, yes.

But everyone in the neighborhood knew
she was what you would call an easy

Real easy.

Good.

Oh, Wanda.

Hi. How's the road treating you?

Oh, I think it's tough, you know, how it
is.

Why don't you sit down and tell me all
about it?

It's a little tough.

Wanda.

What's the coffee?

Coffee.

Nick, coffee.

What happened?

I haven't since eaten, Charlie.

What do you want, Nana?

I'm not hungry, I'm just... I'm not...
Oh, she asked

me to sit down.

He will steal the gold out of your teeth
for a drink.

No, I... I hardly ever stole anything.

You heard the man.

It wasn't always like this, you know.
Not always.

Yeah, well, nobody's born unless...

I was a dentist.

Dentist?

You were a dentist.

What's so funny?

Oh, well, usually they're doctors or
lawyers.

I had a wife, three kids, two cars

and a house.

I went on vacation every year.

Drink your coffee.

Into lots of places.

Yeah? I've never been anyplace.

Oh, it's too bad.

Look, Charlie, what I don't need is your
sympathy.

Oh, I'm sorry, Wanda.

Honest, I didn't mean to get you mad.

It's all right. Just forget it, okay?

Look, Charlie, if you get hungry, eat
something, all right?

Appreciate it.

I really appreciate it.

If I get a toothache, I'll call you up.

Why?

Take a coffee.

He'll use that for booze. You know that.

I know it.

But it was worth it.

For what?

Here's somebody else lie to himself.

Yeah.

If he went down the street that way, he
followed her. Does that make him a

killer?

No. It could have been anyone. Why
should it be Charlie?

Then following her was kind of unusual.

How's that?

The closest bar is the other way.

Great coffee.

Thank you.

I've been waiting two days for an
answer, Mickey.

You get points with me if I get points
with Ironside.

Slow, slow, I'm writing it down.

Got it.

What's it worth?

A tenner if you're right, 30 days if
you're wrong.

Guy on the end set to put it on his
task.

Don't tell me. Got a tip.

Mickey. Mm -hmm.

Oh, that thing trying to score with the
whole department. You were nailed to the

Remington case. I am.

Chief got under my skin with the swell.

He's got a talent for that.

Guilty?

Refill? Question.

Know everything there is to know about
boxing, baseball, football. What's the

argument? You got a wrestler who comes
in here?

Don't know much about wrestling.

Leave it there.

I had you both pegged the minute you
walked in.

What about the wrestler?

There was a narco once, had me fooled
for over a month.

He asked you a question.

The wrestler.

Well, I hate to turn on a friend, but
then again, I hate to lose my liquor

license.

Make up your mind.

He's chalking up a cue.

Ressler?

Yeah? Police.

I'd like to ask you a few questions.

After this shot.

I do feel so.

Okay, okay, no shit.

You need one move, sir. I'll be just
fine.

Put your

hands on the rail.

Right there.

Get them down.

Stay back.

You better cuff him.

You cops sure get uptight over parking
tickets.

Yeah, parking tickets.

All right, all right, so it was more
than a couple.

You ran because of parking tickets.

Yeah, that's what you want me for, yeah?

You went for resisting arrest,
assaulting a police officer, and quite

murder. Murder.

Wonderful.

Some kind of joke, right? She was
murdered two weeks ago.

Well, I was working at Kearney.

Traveled to Kearney in Ohio for a month.
I just got back in town yesterday.

Well, check that out. Sure, sure. Check
it out.

Oh, Wanda. Wanda Bowler.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know that name.

But I never met her.

How do you know her?

She's a friend of Marv. It's my brother.
She used to go in his bookstore line.

Right.

Well, it's over in Levering Place, but
it'd be a waste of time.

What makes you so sure?

That's my brother, Marv.

or anybody.

This even eats organic food.

Not at the moment, but I expect him
shortly.

Can I, um, help you?

Perhaps. Have you ever seen this young
lady in the shop?

Yes.

Often?

Often enough.

She come in just for books or to visit
Mr. Greenleaf?

Well, I really wouldn't know.

He kept lending her our books.

Any particular kind, fact, fiction?

Well, the last one was Anna Karenina, if
that means anything.

You won't mind if I wait for Mr.

Greenleaf. That's up to you.

I'll just browse around.

Marvin? I'll be right there.

Wanda, well, it's been a long time. I've
missed you.

Me too.

And I can't make lunch today.

Oh, I'm sorry.

How about tomorrow in the park? I'll
bring something special.

Oh, all right.

Oh, here.

How'd you like it?

It was sad, Marvin, really sad.

Well, I told you it was a tragedy.

Yeah, it kind of reminds me of me,
except I'm not exactly a Russian

Nor are you a trollop.

What? Never mind.

Well, it's late.

I've got to go.

I understand.

Every time you say that, I know you're
mad.

Wanda, I have no claim over whom you see
or what you do.

Well, it's late.

Tomorrow in the park.

I'll look real pretty for you.

Why, for me?

Because you're special.

Wanda, of all the men that the Lord
created, I am the most ordinary.

Now you know you're special because you
make me feel special.

All right, see you tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

Jack has spent the rest of his life
working on this case, but he couldn't

promoted. If the chief hears that,
you'll get yourself promoted right into

boondocks. If the chief doesn't get
working on the Remington case, the

commissioner will do some promoting of
his own.

Well -deserved rest from a hard day's
work. I checked on Bill and Nero and his

muscle. They were in Miami.

Charlie was dead to the world at the
Good Samaritan Mission for reliable

witnesses. The night clerk at the hotel
was watching television with two

tenants. And the owner of the bookshop
closed up at 9 o 'clock that night and

went to Sausalito to visit his mother.

Which leaves us no place.

Not true.

First hard evidence. No forcible entry.
The bruise in the jaw. The fact there

was no struggle.

That her assailant was facing her?

Wanda knew him. And she's slowly telling
us who he is.

Well, if she's talking, I don't hear
her.

The girl was feisty.

She wouldn't let Billy Nero push her
around. She didn't have many men up to

room. Night clerk told me that.

Well, she worked the docks like the men
who go down to the sea in ships.

I hope you all will enjoy your rest.

I will see you in the morning.

Chief, where are you going?

Wanda.

Bill has not told us everything.

Wanda? Johnny!

Well, don't you stay in there. Come in
and close the door.

Yeah.

Where have you been this time?

Another haul down to Mexico and back.

Oh?

Well, take off your coat and hat. It's
hot in here.

That button you put on, it stayed real
good.

What's that?

You. Me.

Oh. Nobody hardly buys me any presents.

Why don't you open it?

All right.

I hope it's the right color.

It's beautiful.

You're not just saying that. Uh -uh. I
mean, you don't have to. It's just a

shawl. Oh.

Honest, it's the prettiest thing I ever
owned.

I didn't even haggle with her. I just
paid her. What's she ask? How does it

look?

Swell. Really swell.

And I'll only wear it for good. You
know, like to church or when I'm with

I only see you in here.

Well, then I'll only wear it in here.

Um, will you bring me something else
next time you go away?

Yeah, sure.

Hey.

You're nice.

You're nicer than all the others.

Do you have to talk like that?

Like what?

Well, you know, the others.

Oh, come on, Johnny. You want to play
make -believe?

Is that what you want? Because I can
play make -believe better than anybody.

Don't get mad. I'm sorry.

Don't apologize.

I'm sorry.

Don't say you're sorry.

Maybe I better go. No, no, no. Don't go.
Come on.

Don't stand there like you're burning up
the floor. Come on, sit down.

Sit down and I'll get you a drink.

I had one before I came over. Just one?

Three. But not doubles.

Even to see me, huh?

Well, you know.

With the guys.

Yeah. All your buddies.

All your pals.

They're not bad guys.

You know?

I mean, they just... Well, they got
other things to do.

Yeah, I know.

Oh, boy, how well I know.

Here. Pour yourself a drink.

Just a short one. You know? Mm -hmm.

I don't mind.

I'll be right back.

You want one?

Um, maybe later, huh?

Yeah.

management. They'd like to know when I
can rent the room.

Somebody bought her a present.

Who'd buy a dame like that a present?

When I have the answer to that, you can
rent the room.

That phone's still working?

Yeah, who's to shut it off?

Okay, back to your TV.

Thanks a lot.

I'd like the number for the Maritime
Hiring Hall.

Mr. Kramer?

Hmm? My name is Ironside. Thank you for
waiting.

All I got to go home to is my wife.

You find anything for me? I am just
about finished.

There.

Those are the ships arrived from Mexico
in the three days you wanted.

What a number.

The ones with the checks there in port.

All arriving tonight.

This ship, the one you circled,
Marianne.

That's a coastal freighter.

She will be docking about 10, 11
tonight. Any reason for the circle?

Chief Ironside, I... I don't know how
serious this is.

And I don't like being a fake, but...
Well, there's a guy on that ship.

Fits it perfect.

Who's the guy?

Johnny Andrews.

Known him for 15 years, and I still
don't know him.

Look, what do you want him for?

Now, if it's smuggling, forget it.

He'd be too scared to try it. I want him
for murder.

He wouldn't kill a fly.

I want him for killing a fly.

I want him for killing a girl

Yeah. Robert Ironside, San Francisco
Police.

I mean, can I refer you? This won't take
long.

Well, I've got to meet a friend.

Bring her, Fred?

Yeah.

How'd you know?

Your friend, Wanda Bullard.

Oh, I can't.

You want to name her?

Well, if you think I'm going to help you
bust Wanda. Not Wanda, Jack.

You. Me?

Before. Wanda's dead.

Honest, I swung at it, and she slipped
on the carpet.

She hit her head.

I got scared and ran.

I didn't think she was dead.

Let's go.

I like you.

Honest, I like you.

You don't care, do you? I care very
much.

I don't know why.

It's magic.

What do I do?

And me.

Late dread.

I haven't got the right size.

Too far inside his office.

Hold on.

Lieutenant Reese.

Yes, Carl.

Problems? No, clean booking.

But when I got back to my desk, I found
another metal.

This one is burning my hand.

All right, Carl, we'll get right on it.
Good night.

Mark, Ed, Fran, first thing in the
morning, the Remington case all stops

You are busy.

No, no, no. You stay. Have some coffee.
I have to catch the bus.

Mr. Bowen, there's not much sense in
telling you to forget.

I'm sure you'll remember the happy

I just feel sorry.
