All language subtitles for Hunter s07e07 Oh the Shark Bites

I hope Sammy's in for the night.

Of course he's home for the night. Every
night for the past two weeks, he comes

home at some ungodly hour. He goes to
sleep and we sit out here.

Yeah, tell me about it. I had to break
another date for this one.

How about calling in and finding what
time our relief is showing up?

According to the police manual, 402, I
think.

It's the job of the officer who's awake
to the calling in.

Oh, hey.

Tell room service I'll have the Belgian
waffle.

That came from the house.

Call for backup.

This is R -21 Charles to 114.

Request backup. Shots fired. We're at
826 Barber Drive.

Now, from what you could tell, there was
only one of them, right?

Yeah, I'm positive about that.

Did you see him?

Well, his back was to me the whole time.
He was running, and he was dressed in

leather. That's all I could tell.
Dorothy, what did you see?

Not too much. He was shooting at me.

I didn't think it would be prudent to
stare.

Prudent, huh?

That's what's wrong with the world
today. Everybody seems to be prudent.

what about the motorcycle?

I could see with the taillights, but it
sounded to me like a Japanese bike.

Sergeant, this guy made pretty heavy use
of the computer.

Do you want us to run our usual number
on it? Yes, please. Give me a summary as

soon as you can.

Sure thing.

Thanks very much. Who the dick's on the
case?

Wagner and McKeon.

Wagner's outside.

McKeon's out back where the bike was.

Show me where the bike was.

bike parked behind that wall. By the
time we got out here, he was almost out

sight. He took off down that line there.
Right to this trajectory here, huh?

Yeah. Okay.

Now, you didn't see anybody that he
might have been working an accomplice

would you? No, he was definitely alone.

Okay. You say Dorsey took a shot at him
from up here?

Yeah, but it was pretty late when he got
out here. Yeah,

here's his tracks here.

Look what we got here.

What's that?

That's a baffle. Fits inside of a
muffler to quiet the noise. I don't know

belongs to our guy or not, but we can
sure as hell check it out.

Looks Japanese.

Looks like he lost his septic.

I'll check the cops. Maybe they can tell
us what kind of bike that came off.

Yeah, it's Charlie.

Yeah, do that. You're a good police
officer. Thank you.

Captain, you must be clairvoyant.

What do you mean?

Well, you must have known something was
going to happen to Samuel when you had

to split a tail on him.

He was being surveilled for his loan
sharking activities.

Don't forget, his old man was Harold
Goodman.

Ran finances for the mob out here for a
long time. In fact, I'm sure he never

even retired.

He just put the kid up at the front for
the business.

So I talked to the homicide boys, and
they say this one's ours. So what do we

got? Oh, great.

Well, the shooter got away in a
motorcycle.

Seemed he'd lost part of his tailpipe.
At least we had that to go on. So start.

You know, whoever Harold Goodman was,
it's not going to be easy telling his

that.

Well, I'll tell them.

We kind of go back a long way.

That's okay. I'll do it. It's on my way
home anyway.

Thanks for coming by. See you, man.

Mr. Goodman?

Excuse me, I'm Sergeant Hunter, L .A.
Police Department.

We met a while back.

Hunter?

Must be business. I'm not friendly with
any policemen.

Mr. Goodman, I'm afraid I have some bad
news for you. It's about your son,

Sammy.

He's been shot.

Damn, he's dead, isn't he?

I'm afraid he is.

How?

It happened at his house.

The killer was inside when he came home.

With the robbery?

No. He was murdered.

Mr. Goodman, do you think this has
anything to do with the family business?

What is that supposed to mean?

Look, we know Sammy was the financial
manager of the established underworld.

My son was a legitimate business man.

Does this have anything to do with your
past?

What I was has nothing to do with my
son.

We do know that he was under
surveillance when he was killed. We know

into something.

Leave me alone, huh?

Sorry about your son, Mr. Goodman. Sure.

The cops are sitting outside Sammy's
house and he gets killed.

What good are you?

Mr. Goodman, you may need the police
now.

Think about that.

You didn't say anything about cops.

Why the hell didn't you tell me?

Tom,

if I would have known the police were
there, don't you think I would have told

you? Right.

You always look out for your friends.

You're not my friend.

Oh, tell me something I don't know.

I could have had Max take care of the
problem, but I hired you because I

a pro.

Max.

Oh, I'm sure Max would have been in and
out on little cat feet.

Right, Max?

Whatever.

Give him the money.

That's not enough.

Not with how it went down.

Hey, I even... Well, Sammy was getting a
little too shy with the police. That's

why I got rid of him.

I had no idea they would protect him at
this point in time.

This point in time?

Paul, was that valuable? I am sorry.

Paul?

It's all right, dear. It was an
accident.

That was a gift.

And I'm sure the insurance will take
care of it.

All right.

Now, how much will it take to make you
happy?

Hunter, you were right. This is off a
custom racing bike.

Nine shops repair them in the area. I
called them all myself.

Very good.

You know, I read your report.

It all seems to be there.

Yeah.

Well, writing out that part about
getting hosed while in pursuit, wasn't

easy? Well, those garden hoses can be
tough sometimes, especially the big fat

ones. Yeah.

Tell me about it.

See you later.

Bye.

Hunter.

Yeah, Sid.

Great.

Can you bring him up for me?

I appreciate it.

Thanks.

Burning the midnight oil, huh?

I tell you, this stuff from Sammy's
computer is just incredible, Charlie.

I got something I want to show you so
you can get a kick out of it.

All right. Come in when you're ready.

I'll be right there.

Well, Charlie, you were right about
Sammy Goodman. He's been loan sharking

the great Goodman tradition here.

We've everything broken down in basic
four categories.

Garment district.

Construction.

Transportation.

Wow. And this last one.

Monies are paid out.

Look at that right there.

Albert, Fogerty, Doyle.

What do you know?

Devane? Looks like C. Devane took about
15 grand from Sammy.

Must be Cousin Cornelius, the black
sheep in the family, huh?

I hope it doesn't turn out to be
Charlotte or Catherine, some lady that

was keeping on the side. I'll never hear
the end of that.

Uh, how'd the old man take the news?

Not very well. He's got a heart
condition, so I don't think we can

help on this case.

All right, well, you start running names
first thing tomorrow.

Yeah.

That screw must have rusted out.

We're going to have to replace the
muffler from the top.

Take a couple of days. Hey, pal, I got
to have the bike today.

Be back at 430.

You know, man, I'm all booked up.

What's going on? Nothing.

Oscar?

Come on, the guy gave me a C -note. All
he needs is a new bath.

Officer Malensky, please.

Yeah.

Golly, better hot. Pip on a shooter.
He's picking up a motorcycle at a custom

shop right around 4 .30.

Great. Who you got on it?

Dorsey Malinsky.

Good. Tell him to watch out for the
hoses.

Got it.

You think?

All right, I'll be right there.

Novick and Lorenzo will meet you at the
bike shop around 4 .30. They'll be your

backup on this deal.

Great. Now, Joanne, I need a favor from
you. Name it.

Forensics gave us a list of all of Sammy
Goodman's loan sharking victims. You'll

see right here a guy named Prima
Sportswear. He may want to talk to us.

could get over there and talk with him
before you hit the bike shop, I'd sure

appreciate it.

Okay, I'll get over there right away.
Okay, thanks. Good luck you guys. Right.

They're not from Marshall Field. I can
tell by the uniform.

You have a very discerning eye.

Mr. Prima? That's me.

I'm Officer Joanne Malensky, LAPD. That
line's not in the store yet.

It's very nice.

Well, first shipment for our friends in
blue. We'll sell it to you a dollar to

over cost.

Mr. Prima, I'm here to talk about Sammy
Goodman.

Goodman? Goodman from O 'Neill's in
Akron?

Think, Mr. Prima.

Lone shark.

Sammy Goodman.

Oh, now I remember.

I saw it on the news.

Oh, they didn't say he was a, what, a
loan shark?

Mr. Freeman, it's real important you
tell me anything you know about Sammy

Goodman or the people who worked for
him. Well, how should I know about these

people? The last two seasons, your line
died in the stores.

You didn't have any money for another
season. The banks wouldn't loan you a

penny. Yeah, well, I still have friends,
people who have faith.

You were on Sammy Goodman's list,
weren't you?

What list?

Loan sharking's illegal.

On both ends of the deal.

You're just lucky I don't take you
downtown on suspicion of murder. I'm

busy with the new line.

I have orders from all the big stores.

Well, I just hope it's a good season.

Because damned death isn't going to let
you off the hook, is it?

Once these guys get their teeth into
you, you don't stand much of a chance.

Think about it.

Talk to us.

You know the way out, officer.

David, what's up? Hey, Hunter.

Listen, I've got to talk to you. It's
important.

Well, it's going to be a couple hours.
I've got a big bus going down. What's

deal?

Meet me up on Rocky Point around 8 .30.

If you can't make it, call me.

Yeah.

I'm sorry about Sammy.

I know you are.

How are you holding up, Harold?

Well, my only son dead and murdered.

Anything I can do? I mean, if you need
anything, I can help with the funeral.

You were making a condolence call?

Harold, this is me.

We've known each other a long time.

Yeah.

A lot of business under the bridge.

Exactly. And you don't want to see it go
down a drain.

That's good.

You always make me laugh.

It's mutual.

What do you mean, anyway, down the
drain?

Well, my son was the only thing you had
going for you.

He threw a lot of accounts in your lap.

I know, because they were all my
accounts.

Oh, of course. I owe you a great deal.

Not a great thing.

You owe me everything.

The police said it was non -robbery.
There was somebody waiting for him,

premeditated.

Set up.

Maybe it was someone from that new group
in Nevada.

They're a nasty lot.

We'll know who did this, Harold.

I can assure you.

I'm going to find out.

My friend, the police will.

And if they don't, I will.

I'm going to sue you.

You got my bike ready? It's named
Barnett.

Yes, Mr. Barnett.

Right. We're out here.

I think that's him.

This is our 21, Charles. We may have a
live one.

Everybody stay put until Takato gets out
of the line of fire.

So where's my ZX -7? Where's my baby?

It's right over there.

Show it to me.

I have other things I must do.

What the hell is Takato doing?

Hey, Chief, what's wrong with you? I
asked you to show me my bike.

Cops. He set me up.

Move! He made us.

Go on in through the alley, cut him off.
We're going in.

We're on our way.

I'll call for an R .E.

It really screwed us up. Because
Sammy...

was tied into everything, and I mean
everything.

Yeah.

I want you to hear this.

Devane. Captain.

Sammy. What's wrong with Kofi?

Just want to be sure we're still on for
tonight.

And I want you to be sure to bring it
with you.

We'll meet.

We'll talk. And if things go right, it's
all yours.

Nine o 'clock. I'll be there.

Morning, Charlie.

Hi, honey.

Can I come in?

Yeah, come on. Thanks.

I can guess what you're here about.

That list.

You know, you and that list are like a
dog in an old slipper.

You ought to bury it.

Well, it's not about the list anymore,
John. It's about IA.

Yeah. Those guys down there, they're
always ready to stick it to somebody.

Yeah.

Look, you had us put a tail on Sammy
Goodman. How come?

Sammy was being surveilled because of
his...

Loan sharking activities.

Loan sharking activities, huh? And then
your name miraculously appears on his

list, huh? That name is not me.

Charlie, you talked to the two victims,
and now you won't talk to us. What's

going on?

Look, Hunter, do yourself a favor.

Keep out of this one. Look, I know I
don't have to tell you this, Charlie,

you're impeding a police investigation.

You've got to let me do my job.

I'm asking you to stay out. Look, I had
a nice conversation last night with Dave

Garner up on Mulholland.

What's this about?

All right, I'll tell you what it's
about.

It's about my personal business.

You got that?

Personal.

Now, if there's something official you
want to discuss with me, I'll see you at

the office.

Some fathers and sons have good
relationships.

Sammy and I, we talked, so I know the
meeting was right here in your office.

Sammy asked me if he could use the
office.

I like Sammy. Mr. Fremont, I've been
around a long time.

Maybe too long.

Maybe you're afraid of what'll happen if
you talk.

Stop pushing me, please.

I'm holding on to my business by the
fingernails.

I don't need any more problems.

After the meeting, my son was put under
police surveillance.

And then he was killed.

I think somebody else knew about the
meeting.

I want to know who.

In the old days, people who cooperated
with me,

there was an accident.

Some people will get hurt. Family,
friends. I'm caught in the middle.

Don't you understand? These days,
violence is limited.

These new synthetics, they're petroleum
-based.

Am I right?

Yes.

My men are at your warehouse right now.

If I don't call in two minutes, you'll
be out of business.

And Paul Miller will be very unhappy.

If you can't repay his loan.

You're running out of time.

Miller.

He knew.

He told.

You told Paul Miller.

My son was talking with police, Captain.

He fronted me the money to open the new
season.

Good.

Why did you meet Sammy Goodman the night
of the 4th?

I thought he wanted to make a deal.

What kind of a deal?

The usual.

He'd roll over, exchange his testimony
for clemency.

That's not what happened, was it?

No, he offered me a bribe, which
confirmed our suspicions about his

activities. Is that the reason you used
to put a tail on Sammy?

That surveillance was 100 % by the book,
down the line, totally justified.

Did you know Thomas Barnett?

No.

Did you know he killed Sammy Goodman?

Yeah, but I never met the man.

Captain, under the circumstances, that's
very hard to believe.

You guys are acting like you know
something already.

So if you know something, why don't you
tell me?

Very well.

We think you may have covered Sammy
Goodman to keep your finger on his

whereabouts for your own protection.
That is ridiculous. You could have

to lean on him when he stopped paying
you.

I have never taken a penny from anyone.

Which brings us to Goodman's list.

Money's paid.

Name it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's a C.
Devane. There are 14 C. Devanes in the

telephone books around here. Fourteen.

Have you checked out all the other C.
Devanes?

You're supposed to be conducting a
complete investigation.

Yes, Captain, we did.

We sure did.

Including Orange and Riverside County,
there are 16 C. DeVanes.

None of them are remotely connected to
loan sharks, the garment center, the

department, or Sammy Goodman. But you
are.

The name on that list is not me.

Observing an IAD hearing?

Since when did you develop an interest
in internal affairs?

I want you to know I'm here as a friend
for you, Charlie.

Well, I appreciate your concern.

And as a friend, I'm asking you to stay
out of it.

I don't think I can do that.

Oh, damn it, Hunter, stay out of it.
It's personal business. Believe me,

personal business.

How's it going?

Oh, it's, uh, going okay, I suppose.

I just wanted you to know that, um, I
hope this thing with Captain Devane

out.

So the interdepartmental grapevine is at
work, is it?

Yeah, well, it's pretty tough to keep
something like that quiet.

Yeah, I'll bet they are.

Oh, listen, I just wanted you to know if
there's anything I can do.

I appreciate that, Joe, and I do.

Thank you.

Miss Doyle?

Oh, yes? Excuse me.

I'm Sergeant Hummett, LAPD. Oh, hi.

I was asking for a James Doyle over at
your home, and a neighbor sent me over

here. James Doyle? Yes.

That's my father. Oh, good. Well, can I
talk to him?

Dad died ten years ago.

Oh, gee, I'm sorry.

Was your father known as Tiny Doyle?
That's my dad.

He weighed 280 pounds. Some people
thought it was funny calling him Tiny.

Aaron, stop that.

What's this about?

Why did you want to see my father?

Well, actually, I thought your father
was a younger man.

I'm sorry. I know this is all very
confusing. Could I ask you what your

did for a living?

He was an inspector with the Department
of Building and Safety.

So your father never was a police
officer.

Oh, no.

Dad was always 280 pounds.

So how long did he work for the
Department of Building and Safety?

As long as I can remember.

I'd say, let's see, uh...

1945 to... He retired in 1970.

Did you ever know a Sammy Goodman?

I don't know.

How about a Harold?

Maybe. Chelsea, be careful.

Did he have anything to do with building
and safety?

I wouldn't know.

Let me ask you something. He worked
there for 25 years, and he would have

known a Charles Devane, would he?

He may have, but I don't recognize the
name.

different generations.

What's up?

The residence belongs to a Mr. and Mrs.
Paul Miller. He says he's in the

business of taking over failing
companies. Yeah, right.

If anybody should know about the loan
sharking business, it's Paul Miller.

Let me have a word with him.

Paul, don't you think you should go to
the hospital?

I'm fine.

Mr. Miller, Sergeant Hunter, LAPD. How
do you do? My wife. Miss Miller,

pleasure. How are you?

Now, what happened?

I was leaving home and the gate blew up.
I could have been killed.

And you are?

He's my associate. He was inside at the
time. I see.

Now, who hates you bad enough to want to
blow you up?

I can't think of anyone.

Kind of looks like last week's lunch we
had with your wife, huh?

Did you see that outfit Mrs. Miller's
wearing?

Yeah, no, that's a bad dress.

I saw that outfit at the Prima
Sportswear showroom.

He said that line wasn't in the stores
yet.

Only way she could have gotten that
outfit is from the Prima showroom.

I've got enough circumstantial evidence
on you, Prima, to put you in jail for

the suspicion of murder on Sammy
Goodman. Look, sorry to... Now, Paul

Sammy Goodman were in business together,
weren't they?

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they were. Now, I want
you to tell me what you know about the

murder of Sammy Goodman and how you know
it.

Joanne, I want you to get over to Paul
Miller's and arrest him for the murder

Sammy Goodman.

I'm going to Old Man Goodman's right
now.

Got it.

I'm glad you dropped by, Paulie. I know
you're concerned about me.

I know it was you, old man.

I know it was you who tried to kill me.

I didn't live to be this old by making
those kinds of mistakes.

If I wanted you dead, you wouldn't be.

Just a warning to get me here.

You're getting smarter by the second.

I remember when you and me first became
partners, what was it, 20 years ago?

You killed my son, and now you have to
pay for it.

I don't think so.

Put the gun down, Mr. Goodman.

Easy.

Well, he's dead.

He was stupid!

He thought my son met with your Captain
Devane to sell out.

And that's why he had Sammy killed.
Stupid!

I need to know what your son was
blackmailing Captain Devane with.

Mr. Goodwin, your son is dead, and so
was the man that killed him. Now talk to

me. Okay.

Harold Goodman's account book, Charlie.

Damn thing must be 40 years of age, but
it's all in there.

They were all in it together.

Fogarty, Doyle.

My father.

He was the money man.

Everything flowed through him. If you
wanted something done, you saw Charlie

doing it.

And you never knew anything about it?

Well, when I was a kid, I never paid
much attention to it, but when I grew

kind of figured it out.

Triangle construction.

Harold Goodman's company.

My father was working for the city at
the time, and he rigged bids.

On construction contracts for Harold's
company.

Back in 1960, a bridge collapsed.

A lot of people did.

They'd use faulty material.

Harold paid off my father.

Keep it coming.

Sammy started to squeeze me about this.
I didn't know what the hell I was going

to do, but...

I just couldn't let it come out.

Couldn't let it happen.

Charlie, keeping this secret almost
ruined your career.

My mother's still alive.

She's 71 years old.

My father was her whole life.

All she has left is her love and respect
she has for his memory.

You were perfectly willing to lose your
pension to protect your mother, weren't

you? Would you take a pension and break
your mother's heart?

Charlie, tomorrow morning, bright and
early, I'm going down to IA to have a

long, long talk with Lieutenant Dave
Gardner.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Have a good match, Charlie.
