You find us yet?

We're back from the Nevada state line
about an hour ago.

And we're on the right road. Yeah, but
how far is it to the lake?

I'm afraid about 90 miles.

Fish bite better after a good night's
sleep.

Old Chinese proverb.

That you just made up.

Excuse me. I saw your light. We were
hoping you could tell us if there's a

or something around here.

Oh, sure.

Stay on the main road about, oh, three
miles up ahead.

Wheel of Fortune Lodge.

Wheel of Fortune Lodge.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Turrets, they want to stay at the lodge.

Stay at the lodge.

That's a pretty good idea. I wish I had
thought of it myself.

In fact... Woody, now you promised.

I can go there if I want to.

Get thrown out of my own place? What
kind of a deal is that?

Well, you can't handle Hogan that way.

Listen, you wait till you get that ring
on your finger before you tell me what I

can and cannot handle, okay? Woody, Bert
said that he would try and talk to

Hogan tonight. So why don't you give him
a chance? Because your husband would

rather play poker than talk. That's why.

And Hogan doesn't understand talk in the
first place.

That's what he understands.

Woody!

Welcome to the Wheel of Fortune Lodge.
It's your luck to be here and our

pleasure to serve you.

They're missing the pleasure of serving.

All right. I'll see your raise and I'll
raise you ten more.

Oh, hello. What can I do for you? We'd
like a couple of rooms for the night.

Oh, of course. I'm sorry you'll have to
forgive us. Off -season, we only have a

skeleton crew.

Uh, Ben?

I'll get it.

Sorry I wasn't out here.

Things flow. We all let down a little, I
guess.

I'm just glad you're not closed.

Well?

I'm out.

What about you, Bert?

Take my advice, you'll fold.

I call.

Woody, what do I have to do to convince
you? You're not going to convince me of

anything. Woody, now, get back to the
house. Get your hands off me.

Woody, stop.

Take your lousy hands off me. Woody, do
you know this isn't going to cut it?

I don't know why I should believe you
anyway.

Because I don't put you on, Woody.

And you know it. At least he listens to
somebody.

Now we know what side you're on, don't
we?

Leave him alone, Bert.

Come on.

Let's get some fresh air.

I'm sorry, but it seems I'm always
apologizing tonight.

Maybe I could offer you gentlemen a
nightcap so Bev can show you to your

Yes, thank you.

A bourbon, please. All right.

Help yourselves.

Back of the war is for me.

I guess it's you and me, Bert.

Where were we?

Yes.

King?

Five. No help.

You're better.

I see you're 50 and bump you 50.

Big spender.

Sure you can afford it?

You wouldn't be trying to convince me
that you have two pair hidden there,

you? Well, it would cost you 50 to find
out.

Being awfully cool tonight, what
happened to old sweaty palms?

Was it a day you would have come unglued
with a hand like this?

Everything changes, Del.

What's your bet?

I guess I gotta keep you on it.

Two pair.

Kings over sevens.

That's very good.

It's not good enough.

Thirty miles of railroad track.

Ride him and weep.

You're taking it very calmly.

You inherit an oil well or something?

I think you and I should have a little
talk.

Well, that's enough for me. Yeah, me
too.

Good night.

Good night.

Will you show us the way?

Certainly. Good having you here,
gentlemen.

If you're on your way to Reno for a
little action, maybe we could take care

it here. Oh, Lake Caleb.

We're going fishing.

Oh, well, each man to his own sport,
right?

Give me a few minutes to wash up, will
you? A little sweaty winning all your

money. Later.

Very nice girl, wouldn't you say, Bev?

Bev?

The young lady who showed us to the room
and with whom you just spoke on the

phone. Oh, oh, oh, yeah. It's very nice.
Very attractive.

Probably went right back to the bar,
wouldn't you say?

If you're awake enough to find that out,
you're awake enough to drive the last

90 miles.

Stay where you are.

I love it.

Well, I'm sorry to have to foul up your
vacation like this, Chief.

You know, usually this is just a nice,
quiet little community.

We'll hate to leave it.

When do you figure?

First thing in the morning.

Go hang around long enough to sign your
official statement, okay? Be glad to.

I want to see him. I want to see my
husband.

Why can't I see Bert? Now, take it easy,
Carrie.

Of course you can see him. Where is he?

Well, Allison, we had to move him to the
county morgue.

Oh, no.

No. He should be in our own home.

We have to look him over. Drink this,
Carrie. Look him over for what?

There has to be an autopsy.

He's got two bullets in him. Don't you
touch him. Don't you let anybody touch

him. I'm sorry you have to hear about it
like this. I don't give you permission

to touch him, to cut him open. There's
going to be a court order.

It's a murder.

Why is he sitting over there?

Why didn't you arrest him? Look, Del
didn't do it. It was Woody.

At least it looks that way.

Woody doesn't kill.

Del Hogan kills.

Look around you.

Everything he touches.

Woody, Bev, me, all of us, the walking
dead.

Except Bert.

Bert's not walking anymore.

That's not going to do any good. Of
course not, because he's legal in this

state.

Oh, he pays his taxes, buys by the
rules. A real solid citizen.

Nobody can touch him.

Well, maybe I can. Don, I'll carry you.
I'm sorry. You're going to have to wait

outside. Listen, Bill, take her outside.
Get her calmed down.

You can take her in to see Bert. She's
up to it.

You

understand,

Mr. Hogan, she's, well, too upset to
realize what she's doing.

You know, we're saying, as you said,
Sheriff, it's a nice, quiet little

community.

I'll see you in the morning.

We are going fishing.

Enjoy your breakfast? Just fine.

May we have the bill, please? We'd like
to leave as soon as we see the sheriff.

Oh, no, no bill.

Mr. Hogan said you should leave with at
least one pleasant memory. We have the

best breakfast in the side of Reno.
Better weather, good food, and a lot of

outdoors to play in. How about a justice
in peace? Oh, he's one of my best

customers. He'll give you a little
celebration afterwards, and I'll give

little present.

Twenty dollars worth of chips to play
with.

Yeah, and all we stop for was breakfast.
Well, that's how we hook them, pretty

lady. And if you want to have a little
fun, we have a friendly little game.

Morning. I am.

Morning, Sheriff.

I got your statement here for you all
ready to sign. We may have something to

add. That so?

We heard three shots last night.

Only two hit Bert Thomas.

That's right. Yeah, there's slugs in
this tree, Sheriff.

Right there.

Oh?

Oh, thanks. That'll save us a lot of
looking.

Confirms the coroner's report, doesn't
it?

Now... What do you know about the
coroner's report?

From where Mr. Thomas fell, we can
assume he came out the door and walked

forward. My guess is the coroner found
the bullets entered from the left side,

not dead center.

On the same trajectory, the third bullet
entered that tree.

From over there?

Not there, where I spotted Woody.

Have you questioned Woody yet?

No, son.

He said he was just standing around
trying to figure out what to do, and

remembers seeing the front lights go
out.

After a while, he heard the shots.

And he scooted and that's when you
nailed him. Do you believe it? I don't

He was here.

And in the dark, he could have thought
that Bert was Hogan. And that is his

You think Woody was out to get Hogan and
made a mistake?

Well, maybe.

They did have their differences, all
right. Woody should have used a lawyer,

a gun.

He had a lawyer.

Bert Thomas.

A man wouldn't kill his own lawyer,
would he?

Depends on what his lawyer was up to.

Yeah, of course. And the bullets did
come from that angle.

What he could have fired and then
changed position.

Yes, he could have.

Somebody standing there, nervous,
waiting for his victim to step out.

Got two jacks? Yeah.

Beats my tens.

When?

I don't know.

He's got a pair of eights, but his jacks
win.

You're a pot.

Here's something else, you know that?

Oh, I just don't know anything about
gambling.

Well, might I?

You're not some kind of a hustler, are
you, out to try to beat the house?

Not me, I learned my poker the hard way,
in the army.

Just out?

Yeah, uh -huh.

Don't take any of it.

What?

A little free art.

Big extra club.

That's, uh, $10.

Mm -hmm.

Okay. You're full of big plans, I guess,
huh?

Uh, yeah, a couple of buddies from my
platoon. We're all going in together,

getting this gas station out on the
interstate.

Sounds like a good gamble.

It's not gamble. It's a sheer thing.

King for you, deuce for me.

Everything's a gamble, Johnny.

You see the difference between a
professional and an amateur?

Is the professional knows what the odds
are.

Knows how to make the pot bigger.

Has the guts to take a risk.

What's up to you?

I thought I'd say goodbye and thank Mr.
Hogan.

Mr. Hogan is very busy.

Are you

sure

you want it?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Pretty lady, you better warn your fella.

I may take everything he has away from
him.

Can you give me a lift in Torino?

We have a pair of cowboys for the kid
and a pair of bullets for the fella

sitting here while the price of poker
just went up.

Don't let him know what you see.

Don't move a muscle on that pretty face.

Because that's what the other fella
doesn't see.

It's important.

We'd be pleased to give you a lift to
Reno when we leave.

But I'm afraid that may be a little wild
yet.

Then forget it.

I guess she was really hung up on him.

Don't get me wrong.

Bev's a great gal. She deserves a lot
better than Hogan. Why?

Oh, because he's a...

Look, he drifted in here one day, and he
talked me into believing that he could

double my business for me. Did he?

Well, yeah.

Twice we did with the season before.

I made a manager, I gave him a full
partnership, and then... And then

dropped off. No.

Just the money.

Oh, the books looked good.

My share kept getting less and less.

So you got a lawyer? Yeah, Bert.

My girlfriend's brother -in -law.

Figured if I couldn't trust him, I
couldn't trust anybody.

You sounded a little doubtful.

Well, it was more than six months, and
he hadn't even started the investigation

yet. All he did was play poker with
Hogan.

You know, it sounds, well, bad to speak
ill of the dead, but I began to wonder

who he was working for.

Oh, Woody, you sure weren't paying much
attention when I read you your rights.

About all we needed was a motive, and
you just gave us two.

One for killing Bert on purpose, and one
for mistaking him for Hogan.

Come on, Sheriff.

I couldn't kill anybody.

I don't even own a hunting rifle.

It wasn't a hunting rifle that was used,
Woody. But that pistol, it was kept in

the cash register. Anybody could have
gotten it. Anybody.

Any suggestions?

If you're talking about Bert, no.

Looking for somebody who'd go gunning
for Hogan.

Check your local telephone book. Does he
cheat at cards?

No, he doesn't have to.

He's as good as they come.

If you don't believe me, ask anybody.

Ask Bert's widow.

He took just about everything we had.

Bert kept going back, getting in deeper
and deeper.

He was trying to win back what he had
lost.

And Hogan would let him win just enough
to give him hope and then clean him.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Thomas. I know this is
painful for you.

No, no, no.

That's all right.

Anything I can do to help you find... Do
you have any idea?

Any at all?

A bit.

It just doesn't make sense.

I mean, Bird was so good and kind.

He opened our home to my sister, and he
let Woody stay here after Hogan threw

him out of the lodge.

Physically threw him out?

Hogan said he was bad for business.

Can't blame Woody for drinking.

Mrs. Thomas, when Woody left here that
night,

Why didn't you call the lodge and warn
them?

I didn't think of it.

Or didn't want to. All right, all right.
Maybe I thought it was about time

someone made trouble for Hogan.

Looks like the trouble happened to Bert.

You know, if I had called, Bert would be
alive today.

I'm sorry, but Carrie can't talk
anymore. You just have to go.

You're Mrs.

Thomas' sister?

Yes. Mary Lou Beacon.

When Woody left for the lodge, what did
you and Mrs. Thomas do?

I went to bed.

Your fiancé was out looking for trouble,
and you just went to bed?

And cried myself to sleep.

There wasn't much I could do.

He's been drinking, and I just can't
get... Well, I just can't cope with

He was abusive?

Yes. He struck you? No.

No, no, we just had words.

No, but he wasn't a violent man. He was
sweet and generous.

After all, I was going to marry him.
Was?

Well, he is in jail.

I mean, for murder.

Do you think it's possible he's guilty?

Oh, no.

I mean, I don't know.

How do you know what a person will do?

How do you ever really get to know
someone until you've... Oh, I'm sorry. I

don't know what I'm saying.

Just one last question, Miss Beacon.

After you went to bed, did you hear
anyone come in or go out?

I live in the guest house out back.

Who could have come in?

Or gone out?

Check the registration on that car up
there, will you?

Sure.

What else am I looking for?

A dripping oil pan.

Registered to Mrs. Carrie Thompson.

How far are we from the lodge, do you
think?

A little less than a quarter of a mile,
maybe.

How fresh is the oil?

It's fresh.

Let's see if the lab can match it up.

So we all figure we get through a tour.
Now I'm together in one piece. It's a

pretty good team.

So why break it up?

Thank you. That looks good.

You're having too much thought of food
lately.

Not for me, thank you. I have a date
with Mr. Hogan.

Johnny.

Hey, listen.

Why don't we just drive on?

Why?

I don't know.

I'm just feeling a little restless,
that's all.

Oh.

I guess poker's not that much fun if
you're not playing.

Look, I gotta take one more crack than
that, okay? Come on.

We'll see you later.

Bye.

That girl knows.

She's smarter than I was.

And what happened to you?

Mike, I left.

I stayed.

She has to go.

Sure.

She's scared.

Scared she'll want to stay.

Oh, I hate that man.

When Carrie Thomas said he kills
everything he touches, she included you.

What's she guessing? No.

Doesn't always take courage to talk to a
friend.

Chief, how are you?

How's the fishing going?

We haven't exactly dropped our hooks
yet.

They haven't even started yet.

What's the hang -up?

You won't ask him? Not me.

Are you mumbling or what?

No, no, no. Fran just wants to know what
held you.

You coward.

Never mind all that.

I need you to go to the bank for me.

The bank?

What for?

The whole thing.

And wire it to me immediately.

What's going on?

Got you, Chief.

Bye. Well, where are they? Why aren't
they fishing?

Did Chief say you need some kind of
money?

Are they in trouble?

Well, just don't sit there. What's it
all about?

He didn't say.

By the way, the oil's from Gary Thomas'
car, all right?

Sheriff Mallory's talking to her now.

And he's letting me go through the files
in the victim's office.

All right, get back to me as soon as
possible.

$10 to you.

Dave is on top, Johnny. Should have a
little more faith in lady luck.

Nothing for me.

Ace King wins the pot.

Addy up.

Kill me out.

You can go very far in one ship anyway.

I'll be right back. Where are you going?

Get a little more money.

Johnny, that's the money for the
business.

I know that. Well, maybe you better not,
Johnny. You've lost a bundle already.

I'd like to win it back.

That's what the house stays open for.
Thank you.

Johnny.

Johnny, think. Hey, wait, listen,
listen, listen. This isn't fun anymore.

understand? It's trouble.

I'm already into this steak. I have to
get even. Do you understand?

I don't have any choice.

have to do it, don't you?

Well, Gwen, let me tell you, there are
only two kinds of people in the world.

Winners and losers.

Yeah, I'm beginning to find that out.

Of course, his bummer doesn't have to be
yours, does it?

Johnny's got a lot to lose, hasn't he?

Yeah, she's pretty, isn't she?

Let them go, Hogan.

Well, the jolly crusader comes to the
wheel of fortune.

And if I say no?

What?

Hey, kids, look what we got here.

Fresh money.

All right. And away we go.

Big ace for Johnny boy.

Beautiful queen for the chief.

Either draws a five, eight, I bet.

A tenner for the veteran, another
beautiful queen for the chief.

And the dealer draws a deuce of an
interesting color.

Up to the SFPD.

Beats fishing, doesn't it, Chief?

They have a lot in common.

How many years do you think Woody will
get?

Depends on the judge, if he's guilty.

Well, ten queens and fives.

If Woody didn't do it, who did?

There are several possibles.

Let's make that five more of the same.

Except me. Why not you?

Well, I held $12 ,000 of the man's
markers. Now, why would I kill him?

Theater.

Keep getting my other five.

Theater pulls a four.

Queens row.

This hand is going to get a little more
expensive.

Not for me.

Okay, come on.

Come on, soldier boy. All you need is
one big pot.

Your trouble is you're checking out when
the stakes get high. Just deal the

cards, will you?

I need something to drink.

We have a waitress. You just sit there
and enjoy yourself.

Bev, Johnny's dry.

And here we go. Big Jack.

Nine, eight of spades and a three for
me.

You, um, been to see Woody?

No, why have you? What's he been telling
you?

That you seem to have a lot more money
than he does.

Well, I put mine into the business, he
puts his into, uh, liquid assets.

Are we playing cards?

Well, you're high, kid.

Okay, around we go. Jack, ten possible.

Eight, nine possible.

A pair of trays, up to me.

Well, let's give the soldier what he's
looking for. A nice big pot, huh?

Well, I do believe the boy is losing his
taste for the game.

Here we go. Ten -four. Possible all
blue. Jack -five.

Ten -three.

Deal me out.

You already in?

Queen Jack. Possible.

King, queen, possible.

What do you bet?

Five.

Okay, I'll raise you $50.

In or out, Ironside? In.

All right, you're in.

And your high card.

High card bets five.

All right.

What?

And a round to go. A pair of sixes.

Queen seven, no help.

And a pair of J -boys.

Well, I think that'll cost you five.

Eight to a pair of sixes, no help.

Ten to a pair of jacks.

Twenty -five.

Good boy.

It came out of there. Four, no help.

Big ace.

Jacks, still a bet.

Let's see if the soldier boy left his
courage in Vietnam.

One hundred dollars.

Now, I might have another jack under
there.

Maybe even a ten.

I want to pay the fee.

Eat the jacks.

Two pair.

Sixes, eights.

That's not bad, huh?

Not yet, pretty face. It's in his blood
now.

He's got a compulsion to lose.

Oh, it's to me, all right.

I'll call that.

Up you get.

All right. Find what we were looking
for? More.

I gotta tell you, Thomas had some kind
of a violent system. Hey, we're having a

poker game. Oh, I'm sorry. I each
interrupt with such trivia as murder.

Of course, it could be that he didn't
want anybody to find it.

Look, if you don't want to play, I'll
deal you out.

I think we can be sure Woody didn't know
anything about it. No reason for a

lawyer to tell his client everything he
knows.

Come on, it's not a court of law. It's a
poker game. Moot point.

What does that mean?

Let's see. Johnny has four and a three.

Dealer, King and Jack. And I have... I
can read. Ace, ten.

Can you read this?

Twenty -five.

Up to you.

Here we go. Six, four, three possible
straight.

King of diamonds. Possible straight
flush.

And a nine to keep my straight alive.

Twenty -five.

Trying to convince me you've got a
diamond under there? I won't.

Well, I don't believe you.

Twenty -five. More.

I call fifty.

In or out, Ironside?

You found out something, didn't you?
It's going to be hard to prove unless

star witness decides to help.

Want a drink? Mm -hmm.

Here we go. A pair of trays for the
soldier.

A jack of diamonds to a possible royal
flush for the chief.

And a pair of kings.

Okay.

$100 for the cowboys.

I'll see you.

Raise it two.

Hundreds.

I'll see the three.

I'll raise it 200 more.

Still trying to convince me you have a
diamond under there, aren't you? Raise

it, Hogan.

I'd love to bounce it again.

It's like I said, pretty face, you gotta
know when to take a risk, when to pull

back.

Johnny?

Uh... Yeah.

I, uh... Up another hundred.

I could raise you again.

I know.

That's a lot of money to lose. Yes, sir.

I'll see it.

Three trays.

Well, that beats me.

You gave him the pot. You let him win.

You only see what you pay for, Hogan.

You're almost even now, aren't you? Yes,
sir.

You still want to play?

Is that a question? Is that a question?
Of course he wants to play.

Johnny?

No, thank you.

Will you cash us in, please, Mr. Hogan?

Bev, cash him in.

This game is over. Look, if you want to
throw good money away on the kids,

that's all. All right.

One hand.

That's all. One hand. New deck.

We'll cut for deal.

After you.

Jack of spades.

Queen of hearts.

All right.

Ante up.

Room bet.

Make it good. This is probably the last
hand you'll ever play, at least here. I

think you're going to be arrested for
the murder of Bert Thomas.

King bets.

Well, why would I murder Bert? Bet, Mr.
Hogan.

King seven, both hearts.

I'm a jack and a tray.

You murdered Bert because he was
blackmailing you. King is still high,

Hogan. You're guessing. Are you betting?

Now's the time for courage.

You stay out of this.

Hello, Sheriff.

Eight of hearts, possible flush.

I could use another jack.

You went to your room before Bert left
that night. You got Woody's gun. Yes,

I never left the room.

My jacks are high.

Five hundred.

Now, wait a minute. Just wait a minute.

You wanted to play, Hogan. It cost you
500 to stay.

Look, I never left the room till I heard
the shot. Carrie Thomas says you did.

Carrie? She was here.

She knew Woody would make a commotion,
and she wanted to take advantage of it.

For what?

To steal her husband's IOUs from you.

She heard you running down the back
stairs and thought you were after her,

she got out.

Well, why didn't you say so before?

You ready to tell him, Bev?

I told you to stay out of this.

How can I, darling?

I meant it clear up to my neck.

Behave!

Safety deposit box in my name. Give
money.

Carrie found out about it from Bert, not
me.

She knew he was going to trade you the
information for his markers, and she

tried to steal them first.

And she kept quiet, hoping they'd nail
you without ever finding out her husband

was a blackmailer.

You're all hot, Mr. Hogan.

Dumb losers.

They were going to ruin me. Could I let
him do that? I couldn't let him. Don't

you understand?

All right, lovey.

Oh.

You only see what you pay for, Ed.

Okay. Now, there is something I'd really
like to see.

What do you think that'll cost me? Well,
unless you get a ticket for speeding,

it's on the house.

Sheriff, before you impound that money,
I'd appreciate your cashing in my chips.

We're going fishing.
