This our dance?

Every dance.

You see, the young woman loved beautiful
things.

Sometimes the only way she could get
them was to steal them.

A man just called me and said that it is
a bomb in here.

You know, I don't know why it is.

But when I'm with you, I don't worry at
all about anyone stealing the tiger.

I don't see the tiger.

Does the Lou hang the Mona Lisa in the
lobby?

You gotta go inside to see it. Sure you
got the right dates?

Eli, if somebody discovered a way to
convert worry into money and be a

millionaire in 20 minutes, the show runs
all next week.

I'm going to check the place out.

See you back at the house?

You're the brains, lady.

You believe it, we have to wait till
Wednesday?

Not today, not tomorrow, not Monday or
Tuesday, but Wednesday. Meanwhile, my

ulcer is killing me. Eli, a couple more
days isn't going to make that much

difference. Can you imagine if this gets
out that I didn't do a job because

we're waiting for Jupiter to be catty
-cornered with Mars or something weird

like that?

Sensor taping on the windows, trip
switch on the door. Electric eye alarms

mounted here and here.

Air shaft checked and clear.

Mechanically, the precautions are first
rate.

The Tiger itself gets put in that safe
every evening when the gallery

closes. We'll provide two round -the
-clock guards.

I can't suggest anything else.

I am very grateful to you, Chief
Hansard.

You can thank the commissioner, Mr.
Newsteader. I'm merely a consultant.

Mr. Lynn, I'm sure this exhibit will be
the first of many such projects.

May I express the gratitude of my
country for your services?

We're very appreciative.

It's the least we can do.

I'll see you later, Dennis.

I'm going to take a less professional
look at the exhibits before I go.

Thanks, Bob.

Lynn?

There's not a day I let go by without
thinking of

you The times I stopped

myself from crying when I wanted to

There's not a day I let pass by without
longing

for you.

It's beautiful.

I know.

And you, Alexandra.

You are more beautiful than ever.

I never thought I'd see you again, Bob.

Are they busy?

No, they broke up about a half hour ago.
Chief said not to wait.

What, the commissioner decided to spring
for lunch?

No, he left with the Chinese.

The chief left with a lady.

Huh?

Said maybe you could pick him up on the
wharf in about an hour.

Huh?

Why not?

Of course, they told me that I'd never
walk again. I didn't believe that.

As you see, they were right.

That's my story. I didn't mean it to
sound like a soap opera.

I remember reading about it in the
papers.

Pittsburgh, I think.

Lander, I don't remember.

All I wanted was to be with you.

I kept thinking about you in such
terrible pain.

And all alone... It really wasn't all
that bad.

In the first place, I was...

Anesthetized to the gills, and the
second I... I was hardly by myself.

Specialists and nurses.

I was the center of a three -ring
circus.

I wanted to telephone you just to hear
your voice, to know that you were all

right. You should have.

But I couldn't. I would have to have
given my name.

Finally, I decided to send a telegram. I
spent hours over it, trying to find

just the right words.

Words that were part of us.

And then I froze.

I couldn't think.

All I did was cry.

And try to forget.

I was doing my best to remember.

Bob.

It's so good to see you again.

It must have been in the dark.

Welcome back, Sandy.

Ask one of my associates to pick me up.

Would you like to meet him? I'd rather
just enjoy you for a while.

Will you be in town long?

For a while.

Well, how will I get in touch with you?

Are you sure you want to?

Would you rather I didn't want to?

It won't be like last time, will it?

We can't let that happen again.

It's been a good morning, Chief.

Very good, thanks.

Security all worked out for the exhibit?

Mm -hmm.

I met an old friend.

Didn't throw your schedule off too much,
I hope. Oh, not at all.

The others?

Let's stop by the music store first.
There's a tape I want to pick up.

Roger. Yeah.

Sandy, you should have called.

I've been busy.

What's the setup?

Cameras in the corners, tripping around
the windows.

My Ouija board could have told me that.

Your Ouija board doesn't know the
alphabet.

You want an hour?

No, thank me, thanks.

The tiger's under glass on the pedestal
in a little room near the atrium.

My guess is they don't leave it there
overnight.

You spot the safe?

No, but if there is one, it's probably
in the back.

Well, that doesn't give us much to go
on.

You know, if you don't like it, why
don't you try your luck on the gumball

machine? Hey, why so touchy?

She's teed up, I guess. Sorry.

We're going out for a bite. You feel
like seeing the town?

That's my problem. I've seen too much of
this town.

I think I'd like to be alone for a
while, okay?

Need anything?

No, I'm fine. Take care of yourself.

10 -4.

Guess I'll let him in.

What about the last one?

Well, it's the best we've seen.

For the sizable down payment, I think
they can be persuaded to cut at least $2

,000 from the asking price, don't you?

High finance is not my bag.

Hey, nobody's asked you to leave
headquarters.

Nobody has to.

I can't see myself staying there
forever.

Well, it's time to start thinking about
a place of my own.

Irontide.

Yes, Reese.

Well, thanks for keeping me informed.

If he shows up again, let me know right
away.

Well, Miss Carl.

Just saw Lou Blaine across the street
from the gallery.

Blaine the boxman. I always thought
they'd crack a slip during the day.

Like tigers.

Yeah, maybe this one's got insomnia.

He's hungry.

Hmm?

Too early for lunch.

Excuse me?

Nothing, just thinking.

You remember an old coffee house called
Joe's? The one that's been there since

no one locked the house?

Not quite that old.

Maybe not, but we can get better coffee
around the corner.

Joe, if I'm not out in a minute or two,
you might as well head back. I don't

want to keep you tied down.

In that case, I'll be right out.

Cafe espresso with a slice of orange
peel.

I knew you'd be here.

You couldn't have.

Now, here we are.

Two cafe espresso, one eclair, and two
farts. You see, I remember.

Toys and Capricorns. About eight years
ago, right?

What? No ring, no marriage?

I told you, but you wouldn't listen.

Capricorns and their ambitious ways.

But, ah, how they hold their beauty.

Honey. You ain't a day older, not a day.

Remember when I told you to watch out
for accidents?

But you, the typical dozen toys.

I guess it's me, it's my tongue.

Oh, I'd probably fall out one day from
talking too much to people who obviously

want to be left alone.

It was nightmare today.

Wasn't. Brought back a lot of memories.

Things I haven't thought of in years.

I know.

You remember when we'd spend a day
together, and then we'd go home and

letters to each other, as though we'd
been apart for a thousand miles?

Your spelling was atrocious.

It was not. That's not fair.

Who cooks for you, Bob?

Well, sometimes I do.

I have three young officers, friends.

Sometimes they do.

And there's no one else.

It was ten years ago.

October the 14th. It was raining.

Yes.

And on April 7th.

We didn't have that much time together,
did we?

No matter where I go, I always think of
this city as home.

It does have charm.

Not quite as much as Vienna.

Climate's pleasant.

Naples does have a better climate.

We're not provincial.

But hardly as cosmopolitan as London.

The food's acceptable.

In Paris, it's superb.

And in spite of all that, you still
think of this as home?

It's the only place I almost had one.

In all this time, you've never wanted to
settle down somewhere else?

I guess not.

Well, you must have had opportunities.

Oh, I suppose there were.

But there just wasn't anything
permanent.

They take good care of you, Bob.

Who? The force. The three friends you
spoke of.

When there's nothing you need,
financially, I mean.

Oh, I don't have a fortune by any means,
but I'm not a pauper.

And, of course, I do have my job.

That still fascinates you, doesn't it?

Yes, it does.

But I don't mind playing hooky every
once in a while.

Right now, I'm supposed to be making
sure that nobody steals the Chinese art

exhibit.

That's beautiful, isn't it?

Ah, a tiger.

It's magnificent.

Emperor's gift to his wife.

Makes me wish you were an emperor.

No, he was poisoned for his trouble.

Being a policeman's safer.

I think I'll stick to that.

Which reminds me, I'm keeping you from
your work.

Frankly, I'd rather be with you.

You know, I don't know why it is.

But when I'm with you, I don't worry at
all about anyone stealing the tiger.

it for another day.

Anything happening?

Nothing here.

He's been out all afternoon.

Enjoying myself.

And high time, too.

I thought you might like to know Eli
Schneider's in town.

Who's he?

Schneider is one of the best wheel men
in the 11 western states, and that

includes Alaska and Hawaii.

I take it he got away from you.

Well, then he saw him yesterday with a
woman.

Five, seven, dark hair, medium build.

Very dark eyes.

Extremely well dressed.

How'd you know?

Once, not that long ago, there was a
police lieutenant

who was in love with the young woman I
just described.

She was in love with him.

If things had been usual,

They would have married.

But they had differences that they were
never able to solve.

You see, the young woman whose name is
Alexandra Hughes loved beautiful things.

Sometimes the only way she could get
them was to steal them.

They both realized it wouldn't work out.

Their differences were too basic.

So they separated and never saw each
other again.

Until yesterday afternoon.

Now he can't arrest her because she
hasn't done anything.

So he invited her here for dinner
tomorrow night.

Hello, I'm Edgy.

That, my friend, is because your nerves
aren't worth two cents until you're

doing 60 miles an hour.

Well, God never intended for a man to be
cooped up inside waiting for some broad

to decide when the stars are right for a
heist.

We'll take a walk.

But remember, you are a celebrity with
every copy in this time zone.

You're the one who was recognized at the
gallery. I was doing a little research.

Well, that's what I mean. We're paying a
yard and a half for this place.

Sandy is supposed to be blueprinting
this cape, but where is she? Getting her

horoscope done? Eli, some jobs just take
a little while. Now, you know that. You

see, every time you look at that pretty
face of hers, you forget that Sandy's a

professional.

There's a view of the bay.

And? A fireplace.

How about closets?

Walk -in closets in every room.

Except for that, which I refer to as my
den.

Sunshine.

Fresh air.

Out the window.

Couldn't be more perfect.

You love it, don't you?

Well, it's not Naples.

But it does have its attractions.

Of course, it's a little large for a
single man.

Too large.

Have you ever thought of going to live
in the country?

Who hasn't?

But the idea of chopping wood every
morning discourages me.

I chop the wood.

Do you have something in mind?

There's a little place in the
northernmost corner of Idaho.

A tiny, perfect ranch tucked away in a
valley.

Mountains on either side, where the snow
never melts.

And there's a stream that runs through
that valley.

A stream filled with trout.

And every evening, the deer come out of
the woods and they drink at the stream,

practically at the front door.

We'd love it.

I thought I'd buy it after I...

After you've finished your business here
in town?

Well, people can't have two houses.

A summer one for the winter, can't they?

If they want to.

If they get along well together.

Let's go for a drive.

It doesn't look as ugly as a prisoner
should look.

It does for me inside.

Freedom makes everything look beautiful.

Oh, but freedom has its impositions.

Freedom means choice, and choice means
responsibility.

Then it's imperfect.

What isn't?

Responsibility. Duty. Law.

Should be left to the individual, not
imposed by an external structure.

Isn't that a little inconsistent with
the kind of person you are?

I am the way I am because of what I
believe.

When individuals are individually
responsible for freedom, then perhaps

change. You want the structure to
change.

Society is a cumbersome machine.

It might take hundreds of years to bring
about that change.

Well, I don't have that amount of time.

And neither do you.

No, I haven't. I've been a policeman for
a good many years.

There are other things I'd like to do,
to know, to experience.

Do you think you could adjust to life
without your work?

Yes, I could.

The question is, could you?

You think I kept the geraniums?

When the boxes are gone.

I suppose they took down all my cork in
the kitchen.

They wouldn't dare.

We don't even know who they are.

Heating never worked.

We didn't mind.

You remember when you almost
electrocuted yourself trying to fix the

doorbell? Sure, I just stepped out of
the shower. I was soaking wet.

And you remember that first meal I
cooked?

I ate every single bit of it.

I don't think I should see you tonight.

We're expecting you.

I don't think I should.

Why not?

What? I said, why not?

It isn't right.

Eight o 'clock.

Anyone seen my watch? Yes, in the
denture.

Does anyone know what time it is? It's 8
.30, Chief.

It's 8 .30, Chief.

What's your feelings?

Well, the Chief says we have no proof.

The person is presumed innocent until
proven guilty. English common law.

Yeah, but suppose we lived in France.

Then I might be uncomfortable.

I know what you mean.

Hey!

How's everything?

Is it together?

Everything but the guest of honor.

Another 15 minutes and Faya is going to
end up being fried rice.

Fran, just keep the faith.

Mark? Yeah?

Do you think he's really serious about
this huge woman?

Look, I can't read him.

Well, I was just wondering about her.
You know as much about her as I do.

Just for me, but I only want a word with
the chief. What are we expecting

coming? Oh, I won't be long.

If I'm not smelling the best food in San
Francisco, I may have to retire.

Fran, you suppose this is enough for
six? Gee, cocktails, Dennis? I don't see

why not.

I'll get it.

Name it, and it's yours, Commissioner.

Oh, bourbon will be fine. Maybe a little
water.

Hey, uh, I'm not souring anyone's party.
Not at all, as far as I can tell.

Chief's invited an old friend for
supper.

Oh. Everybody, sit.

This is Alexandra Hughes.

Hello.

Now, let's see. This is Fran.

How do you do? And Mark.

And Ed.

And that very distinguished man in the
middle is Commissioner Randall.

Miss Hughes, you must promise not to let
Bob keep you hidden from us.

Thank you.

I thought I'd lost you.

Looks like the sea sneaked up on you.

Well, it dries quickly.

Really, Bob, there's no one here to see
us. We're alone.

Plus, nobody cares about that anymore.

Find any pieces of aid?

No.

Look at these.

All movable.

I feel.

Did they like me?

You were a sensation.

If the commissioner weren't already
married, I'd have a rival to go with all

other rivals.

You wouldn't stand a chance.

Listen to our dance.

I don't want it to end It doesn't have
to

I've made a commitment

You've made

two commitments You can only keep one

I know this sounds extreme, but isn't
there a way you could find a detainer

until the exhibit was over?

It would only be two days.

Probably, but it doesn't solve anything.

Well, then shouldn't we alert Lieutenant
Reese?

No, not yet. Today's only Tuesday.

Astrology. According to this,
Wednesday's her best day.

There's not a day I let go.

longing for you I'm sure

you've heard these words before they're
nothing new

It feels so good to be with you again.

Lieutenant Reese. Lieutenant Reese.

A man just called me and said there is a
bomb in here.

A what? A bomb. And it's going to be off
in ten minutes. You keep calm. We'll

take care of everything. And it's going
to be ruined.

Please.

Ladies and gentlemen, will you all
please clear the gallery immediately.

Everybody out, please. Please clear the
gallery immediately. But I can't. I'm

supposed to meet my husband here in 20
minutes. You can meet him across the

street, ma 'am. Thank you very much.
Thank you. Now, this is terrible.

What's going to happen?

First, we're going to call the bomb
squad. After we call the bomb squad,

going to look around the nation. Your
caller was telling the truth. Now, will

you please go outside, too, sir? Give
him to my gallery. Please, please. We'll

take care of him. Go ahead, sir.

If you start looking around, I'll make a
call from the office.

Right, Lieutenant.

Yeah. Just keep the people out. We're on
our way.

Right.

Packers, I've got it!

Could be a $6 pocket watch and three
auto flares.

Yeah, or it could be 10 ounces of nitro.

Get outside.

All right, hold it back, everybody,
please. Hold it back now. Hold it back.

You get a chance to call the chief. Not
yet. Soon as we're through inside.

Thank you very much.

We'll tell you all about it later, okay?

Stay where you are. Everything's going
to be all right.

Gentlemen, please.

May I go back to my gallery now?

Yes, sir. All right. Thank you.

Chief, now let him go.

All right, folks. It's all over. It's
all over.

Thank you very much. Thank you.

Have they gone?

Yeah, they just left.

I guess I blew it, Chief.

Oh, it's not your fault, Carl.

Don't blame yourself.

D -Day?

D -Day.

Hey, but it's only Tuesday. I thought
she wouldn't try anything until

She must have guessed I'd know about her
horoscope. She outfoxed me.

Chief, I am sorry. So am I. So am I.
Let's go.

Which of the houses you found seems most
likely to you, Ed?

One in San Rafael.

Fits our specifications.

Isolated, rustic setting.

Rented about a month ago.

Two weeks is more likely for what we
want.

Narrows down the field.

Oh, there's a place in Mill Valley.

Did you run across a house with a stream
on the property?

As a matter of fact, there was one.

At least about three weeks ago.

Quarter Madera.

We'll check it out.

An acre of land behind the place. Stream
runs through the woods back there.

See if anyone's home.

Two guys in a van.

Whoever they are, they know somebody's
here.

Go talk to them.

San Francisco Police. Sergeant Brown.

You tell me your part.

Reverend, you stay there. You don't
move.

I'm fine.

Oh!

If I inside, there are no words for my
appreciation.

None are needed.

Well, goodbye then, and drop by any
time, will you?

Well, we've had some close calls in the
past, but this one...

Yes. It was a close call.

Did you get the license of the car she
was driving?

I'm afraid I wasn't thinking of it at
the time, Dennis.

It, uh, was an oversight.

Yeah, I guess it happened pretty fast,
huh? Yeah.

Well, that was a stupid question for me
to ask.

Well, at least we've got Blaine and
Schneider.

Chief, aren't I tired of this?

Just a minute.

It's the realty company, Chief.

About the place on Russian Hill, the one
you were thinking about buying.

They want to know if you want to make an
offer.

Tell them... Tell them I liked it very
much.

But I think it's a bit small.

And somehow for so many years, I've kept

them all inside.

It feels so good to be with you.

you now.
