Have a good night.

Miss me?

Come on.

Come on.

Come

on.

He was a cop.

and good at his job, but he committed the ultimate sin and testified against

other cops gone bad.

Cops that tried to kill him, but got the woman he loved instead.

Framed for murder, now he prowls the badlands, an outlaw hunting outlaws, a

bounty hunter, a renegade.

Okay, here we go.

Don't look over there.

Okay, sit down.

Down. Comfy?

Comfy. What's the big mystery, Robert?

You'll see, you'll see.

Six Killing Enterprises is poised at the threshold of a vast, untapped market.

You know, like how Coca -Cola went into China?

Uh -huh. And this, my darling Sandy, is our key.

Ta -da!

What do you think?

Yeah. It's designed to appeal to the female consumer. You know, like jilted

girlfriends, single mothers, divorcees.

Do you really think the average woman needs a bounty hunting service?

Absolutely. You see, 42 .5 % of all our walk -in business is female. There's

only one big question.

Which ad?

The one without a gun?

The one with a gun?

Without?

With? Uh, Robert, I really don't know if either one is the correct approach.

a female.

Hello. Hi.

Are you Robert Sixkiller?

Please, come in. They call me Bobby. Let me introduce you to my associate, Sandy

Carruthers. Hi. And you are?

Prescott. Janet Prescott. Well, Janet, you came at the perfect opportune time.

You see, we need the opinion of an objective female.

I have to speak to Reno Raines. I see.

You've obviously come to the wrong place.

I was expecting you were going to say that.

It would be stupid to admit anything to a stranger, but I followed all the news

about Reno very closely, and I know that you're in contact with him. The only

contact that I will ever have with Reno Raines is one day I will slap cuffs on

his wrist and collect a fat reward.

Okay, have it your way. You're not in contact. You're not good friends.

The next time you don't see Reno, please tell him Janet Prescott needs him. It's

urgent.

Not that it's any of my business.

Reno is wanted for murder. What's Q puzzling you?

It's a personal matter.

Strange. Well, why don't we cut past, hi, how you doing? You look great.

I just can't believe it's been 15 years.

What happened, Jan?

Did you get more letters?

Eventually.

Did you get mine?

Well, I'd just about given up, and then I got a pack of about 12 of them.

Yeah, good old armed services mail.

You know, I tried to call you from Kabul.

I waited for an hour in line for that lousy phone connection. Five minutes.

But your line was disconnected. No forwarding number.

Things changed for me.

I loved you.

I loved you too. But we were apart for so long and finally met someone out.

I didn't know how to tell you.

Dear Reno. Yeah, I got that far. The next words that had me stumped.

Then one day you showed up on my doorstep.

Right on the front page.

I'm innocent, Jan.

I know.

I wouldn't be here if I didn't believe that.

Why are you here?

That someone else. That guy I met. His name is Dan Snow.

I was lonely.

I missed you.

So much time passed without hearing from you, I figured...

You know, you'd lost interest.

Anyway, Dan came along.

It was wonderful at first.

At first? We dated. I let him move in. And then he started talking about

marriage. What stopped you? I guess I knew something was wrong.

Boy, was I right.

You jealous?

Possessive? Yeah. And then some.

Did he hurt you?

When I tried to break up with him, I landed in the hospital.

When I got out, I moved four times.

But Dan always seemed to find me.

Did you contact the police to get a restraining order?

Yeah, I did, and it worked for ten days.

Reno, he burned my house down.

What? I was lucky to get out alive.

He was convicted of arson and attempted murder, and I thought I would have a

good 15 years, but... Buddy got out of parole, and now he's after you again.

I know I have no right to ask.

You've got every right.

Who is she? I thought Val was the only one. She was before Val.

In the Rangers, I was on a mission in the Mideast.

One of the guys in my squad got shot.

And you went back to Salem?

Yeah, well, we both ended up at the VA.

Janet was my nurse.

We got to be friends.

And when I was better... You became more than friends.

Rehab was great.

I found a 66 Mustang.

Hot car, beautiful woman.

What else could a soldier want, right?

Time.

I was going back on active duty.

We told each other that we'd try to stay in touch, but... Anyway, she met up

with this guy named Dan Snow.

And she's being terrorized by him.

So, I'll run the usual background check?

Sure.

And I'm going to change my ad.

Damsels in distress.

No charge.

No waiting.

Got it?

Come out now.

Save yourself a lot of trouble.

Who are you?

Hey, hey, hey, hey, what's going on?

Mom, mom, call the police, mom.

Mom? I see you've met my son.

No, wait, wait, wait, you know this guy?

Shh, honey, honey, he's an old friend. Well, he broke into the house.

The door was open. Oh, I see, so you just walk right in? I thought someone

inside. Look, Guy, I'm sorry, I thought I'd be here earlier.

Glad I got home before you took out the china cabinet.

I helped you and Steve with it at all.

Well, certain people would have told me.

I thought he was Dan Snowden.

Who are you?

You don't know?

He doesn't need you.

Look, it's bad enough Dan keeps me in the loop at night, but I'm not going to

let him do that to Steve.

Why didn't you tell me you had a son?

I don't know.

It flipped my mind.

I think I was too busy being swept off my feet.

Look at you. What?

You're blushing. I am not.

So I take it Dad did not see his father?

No, thank God. But that's a whole other story.

Well, I hope you didn't keep him from me because you're afraid I'd back off.

Well, to be honest, the thought did cross my mind.

You should know me better than that.

Good timing.

Look, it's about ready. Will you please grab some napkins?

You got a great right hook.

Oh, yeah.

No, I mean it.

You're a natural fighter.

Athlete. Natural athlete.

Thank you. Yeah.

So what grade are you in?

Ninth.

How's it going?

Fine.

He's doing okay.

Though it wouldn't hurt him to spend a little more time in the library instead

of the garage.

Yeah,

I'm learning.

I mean, I should have my license by the time I finish her.

Her?

Wow.

66 Mustang.

Yeah, pretty cool, huh?

Someone towed this baby down the Jay Chevron up the corner and abandoned her.

Got her for about a hundred bucks.

You know, restoring one of these ponies really sucks up the cash and the hours.

Yeah, I know. I'm taking my time, you know, doing it right.

I'm hung up on the brakes, though.

Yeah, they don't make inline valves for these brakes anymore.

Yeah, just found that out. A single line system costs more than I got.

Why don't you try a sleeve adapter?

They work great.

No kidding?

Mm -hmm. Where can I get one of those?

Any parts store.

Thanks, man.

No problem.

You're really doing a good job.

Yeah, Mom says I take after my dad.

He had a 66.

It's kind of why I wouldn't have one.

Your dad had a 66 month?

Yeah.

Redwood.

What else do you know about your dad?

Not much, except he's dead.

Sounded like a pretty cool guy, though.

Take after him, do you?

Mom says so.

She's only got one picture of him, and, you know, it's kind of blurry.

She's got it up in her room.

Ah, the light must have blown.

Steve, go inside the house.

But why?

Just do it.

Reno, is something wrong?

No, everything's okay.

Hey, what's going on out there?

Reno?

Reno, don't.

Why didn't you tell me?

He's my son, isn't he?

Please.

He'll hear you.

Is Steve my son?

Why didn't you tell me?

Let's just slow down. I don't think we can go any slower. You should have told

me 14 years ago. You were half a planet away, remember?

I kept waffling about what to do. I guess I finally decided that you would

need to know.

That wasn't your decision to make.

Yes, it was.

I had a right to know.

Look, if you want to punish me over this, go for it.

You know, I've punished myself a lot harder than you ever could.

I just don't understand why.

I didn't know I was pregnant until almost three months.

You're a nurse, Janet.

I thought it was stress.

And then when I started to show, Dan assumed it was his.

And you let him believe that?

For a while.

But Steve was born six months after Dan and I started dating, and he finally

figured out that it couldn't be his.

That's what really sent him over the edge.

Why didn't you come to me then?

I couldn't find you.

I mean, I was on the run. I had a brand new baby.

And now?

You don't want to tell Steve that I'm his dad because I'm a convicted

is that it?

Steve knows all about the kind of father he has. Whenever he asks me about him,

I tell him about you.

Everything but my name.

I was in the garage with him.

And we were working on his car.

And I was thinking to myself...

This would be a great moment to have with my own son.

And I was having that moment, and I didn't even know it.

Please promise me you won't say anything, okay? Just not until we figure

out. Why?

If I were Steve and my long -lost dad showed up out of the blue, I'd want to

know. You can't be a real father to him, Reno.

And you're going to decide that for me too, huh?

You know it's true, not the way things are now. You can't just walk back into

his life, say hi, son, and then vanish again.

What's that going to do to him?

I know.

You're right.

You're right.

But I've got a son up in that room.

And I want to get close to him.

And I don't know how.

Yummy, yum, yum.

Here you go, my darling. A Bow Wow Deluxe. The best in the city. Go ahead,

Wrap your lips around that one.

Sorry I'm late.

Did you run into any trouble?

Not exactly. I stopped by to get these.

You been stealing my cigars again?

No, I bought them.

That's what new fathers are supposed to do, isn't it?

New father?

Who's a new father?

Me. Well, I guess I'm not a new father because it happened 14 years ago.

But Janet told me last night. She has a son.

We have a son.

Aren't you going to say anything?

Congratulations.

Yeah.

Don't worry. I was shocked last night when I first found out.

You sure Janet's right?

Positive. How do you know that for sure?

We were working on the car together, me and Steve, and...

It's just a connection, I felt.

Okay, you're probably right.

But even so, I think maybe we should check it out. It's a good idea.

Don't waste your time. We have to focus on getting Dan Snow.

I talked to my friend in corrections this morning.

And? Everything Jan said was right.

I have the name of his parole officer. I can go talk to him later. I'll go with

you. No, no, no, no. Parole officers are also officers of the court, so no way.

Don't worry, Reno.

Very impressive.

Hey, man, just don't talk to someone who's playing.

Hold on.

Let me make it up to you, bro.

Hey. You know, next time, you probably shouldn't overcorrect on that fourth

turn. What, do you play this game? Oh, yeah.

You see that highest point score there?

DPS?

That's the kid.

No way.

Way? And I'm always looking for a talented challenger.

So, uh, you don't mind if I watch, do you?

Uh... Come on, big man. Hey, you can't perform in front of an audience.

You can't perform at all.

Sure.

I got a present for you.

Why do I need a new cell phone?

Security.

Better change your phone every few days. You don't want the feds running on your

frequency. Sandy didn't get anything from Dan's parole officer.

Yeah, she told me. So what do you want to do? You want to call in the cops?

No, can't do that. Then I wouldn't be able to go near Janitor Steve.

I think it's best if I just keep an eye on him myself.

Did you find anything out about Dan Snow that we can use?

No.

But I did find this.

It's very interesting.

My Army service record?

Now, I know you thought that it was a waste of time, but I did some digging.

The Army records show exactly where you were stationed and when.

So all I need to do is get a copy of Steve's birth certificate.

So you can do what? Count back nine months and see if Janet and I could have

been together?

Look, she's not lying to me.

We're not saying that she's lying, Reno.

But it has been a long time. Maybe she's mistaken.

We just want to make sure.

I am sure.

Some things you know from the heart. You don't need records or documents to

prove it.

Steve is my son, and I'm happy about it, okay?

Look, it's my picnic, Bobby.

Please don't try to ruin it.

I stopped by your school, but you'd already left.

Oh, yeah.

You know, I mean, all I had was study hall, so... So you ditched.

Don't make a habit of it.

Well, you know, I had places to go.

Just leave it after supply.

Did you get them?

Of course I got them.

It's going to be pretty tough putting them on, though.

Not beforehand.

Hey, man, looks like you attracted the wrong kind of attention.

Stay here.

So, pull that a lot?

Not if I can help it. What'd you do, rob a bank or something?

Or something.

Does mom know?

I didn't do anything wrong. Yes, your mom knows the whole story, and someday

I'll tell you too.

Oh, yeah, that's just great.

Someday. You know, you're just like her. Don't tell little Stevie. He's just a

kid. Hey, give me a break.

Hey, when's someone to give me a break?

I mean, what is it they're after you for anyway?

I can't tell you, all right? Oh, this is just great. I'm hanging out with

America's Most Wanted, and nobody tells me. I didn't do anything.

Oh, yeah, right.

And you run from the cops to show me how bitching your bike is? Hey.

Watch your mouth. See, even you treat me like a kid. Well, then stop acting like

one. I don't have to listen to you.

You can't tell me how to act. You're not my old man.

Well, you're not.

Steve.

So I'm trying to clear my name.

But until then... You run like a rat bit every time you see flashing red lights.

So now do you blame your mom for not wanting to drag you into it?

Yeah.

Yeah, I do.

I mean, I have a father.

He should have told me.

That's another thing we have in common.

She didn't tell me I had a son.

No more than usual.

So, how's it going?

Fine.

Janet, something came up.

You told him?

Oh, gee, Ma, you don't think he figured that one out all by himself, do you?

Steve, I didn't mean... Look, you guys have to talk, okay?

Bobby will be here in ten minutes. He's going to watch the house tonight.

Now, the two of you need to be alone.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Don't make a problem.

Steve, I know you're upset.

Oh, please.

We have to talk.

Please don't do that.

Sorry. How much cash do I have?

CDs, stocks, whatever.

Plenty. You have a nice diversified portfolio that I set up for you. Cash me

out. I need a passport, too.

Well, then you better drink this and wake up, pal, because you're dreaming.

You know, I was thinking about this all last night. You're right.

There's no way under the circumstances that I can be a good father.

Now you're making sense.

So I'm going to ask Janet to marry me.

You're what?

I have a son.

We want to spend time together.

We?

You told him he knows? Yeah, I told... He knows the whole story, okay? And he's

cool with it. Yeah, well, he's cool with it because he's only 14 years of age.

You expect him to understand all that?

What about Dutch Dixon, Reno? Come on, man.

Sometimes you just gotta know when to quit.

Doesn't sound like you.

Having a kid puts a different spin on everything.

He needs me, Bobby.

His whole life he's been living a lie, and that's not fair.

I don't know if I could ever make it up to him, but I've got to try.

Every minute they spend with you, their lives are in danger.

Brother, you've got to clear your name.

I can't.

I've got something good here.

I'm going to grab it.

Man, I am beat.

Can you stand a beer?

Sure.

Oh, thanks.

Thanks. It helps.

Did you have a bad day at work?

No, it's Steve.

He still won't talk to me.

Oh, don't worry.

That'll pass.

Can you sit down a minute?

I can't. You know, I've got to make dinner. I've got to pick up Steve and

for the real excitement. Janet.

What?

Sit. I have to ask you a question.

Uh -oh, you're blushing.

Will you marry me?

What? Hey, she didn't say no.

No, no. Well, not no, but, um, I just, I can't believe it.

Look, I've got some money put away. We can move to New Zealand.

We can buy a house down there. They have good schools.

We can even crate up Steve's Mustang and ship it down.

Reno.

I'm tired of running, Janet. You're tired of running.

What about proving you're innocent?

As long as you and Phoebe believe that I'm innocent, that's all that matters to

me.

Now you're blushing.

Hey, it's Steve, isn't it?

Yeah.

Dan, we met the other day at the Grand Prix machine.

Oh, yeah.

So what are you doing here, man?

I don't know. I thought about coming by and seeing if somebody inside wanted to

challenge my title.

I'm feeling kind of bummed right now. My car was acting up on me big time all

the way over here.

Oh, yeah? Like how?

Well, I mean, auto shop's a favorite class.

No kidding. I'm even restoring a 66 Pony. Really?

Yep. I don't know. It's like if I pull up to a light or something, it stalls

smells like gas.

Is your fuel line leaking?

Beats me.

Want to take a look at it?

Ah, no, I'm waiting on my mom.

Oh, come on, man. It'll just take a minute. The car's right over here.

You'll dig the car.

Come on, check it out.

Huh?

Go, let's go check it out. Whoa!

Dan!

Look away from the boy!

Oh, hey, Reno.

Look, the guy has a 96.

Not so fast, son.

Everybody down.

You just back away.

Nobody will get hurt. Let him go.

You toss your gun.

Only in the movies.

Have it your way.

All right.

Okay.

No!

You stay away from us. I'm taking my son.

He's not your son.

Don't tell me. What'd you do? Huh?

Stay with yours?

You're sure?

It's right there.

Birth certificate?

Service record.

There's no chance for a mistake.

No. What should we do?

Sixkiller. Snow kidnapped Steve.

What? You've got to find out where he's been staying.

Listen, there's something that you should know.

Later.

What's wrong?

What's wrong?

Where's Steve?

Dan's got him.

Oh, my God.

Don't worry. I'll get him back safe. My baby. He's got my baby. I will get him.

I promise.

Will you? Yeah.

But you shouldn't have lied to me, Janet.

You let me believe that Steve was my son.

Reno, please.

You know, my partners had their doubts the first day, but I was too swept up to

listen to them.

Steve isn't my son, is he?

Look, you've just got to understand how scared I was.

I mean, I would do anything to protect him.

Does Dan know his father? He said he was.

Yes.

You know, I'm so sorry.

But you've got to understand how desperate I was. I mean, Dan was

and the police flat out refused to help. So you decided to sucker me in? No, I

was terrified, and I thought if you deserted me too, then I'd have no one

to turn to.

And then you stumbled onto what I was telling Steve about his dad.

I just never dreamed the two of you would bond the way you did. Why not?

I mean, I'm a fairy tale dad, right?

Or did you make up that part, too?

No, no, no.

That part was all true. I always wanted him to have a father that he could be

proud of.

What story were you cooking up for when this was all over?

I don't know. I'm trying to keep myself and my son alive the only way I know

how. And if that makes me a monster, then fine.

I don't understand you, Janet.

Exactly. You don't understand. And you know why? Because you are not a parent.

You're wrong.

For three days, I've been a father to that boy.

Even if it was only a lie to you.

So I do get it.

I was wrong, okay?

I admit it.

But that's over.

So I am begging you.

Please.

Get my son back alive.

All you ever had to do was ask.

Reno, where are you? Just leaving Janet's. No, hold up at the Hoppen Inn.

Take the 14 north, Bell Avenue.

This party's just to get it, boy.

Now, didn't your mama ever teach you about discipline, son?

If you don't let me go, my dad's gonna kick your butt so bad!

Your dad?

Your dad?

I'm your daddy, Stevie.

You're a mirror on the wall, huh?

Any idiot can see that, boy.

There's no way in hell that you're my father!

I was with your mother for a year before you came along and made her all fat

because of you. Shut up! What thanks do I get, old boy? She takes a little

bundle of jewelry and she bolts.

A boy, he needs a father.

See him, isn't it?

Isn't it? See, I told you.

He's gonna kick your butt so bad.

American boy, you...

Okay?

I'm

gonna

ask you something, Reno.

And no BF25, okay?

Oh.

That creepster is my dad.

So how about...

Biologically, yes, he was your father.

Now, look, I didn't lie to you, too, okay? I believed that you were my son

I just found out.

My army records show that I was stationed halfway around the world when

conceived. Your mom didn't mean to lie to us.

You know now the kind of trouble that she was in. She was just trying to

improvise. But how could she have?

I mean, that guy... Steve, people make mistakes.

Trust me.

It's your mom who you take after.

You sure about that? Yeah, I'm sure. You know how I know?

Because I'd be proud to call you my son.

Hey, you two.

Thanks.

Take care of him.

Hey, is it done?

Done it is, and you owe me money. Shh, not here.

Wait, is what done?

What are you guys talking about? Well, I don't know, I just...

I kind of hate the way primer gray looks on a car.
