He's not fat.

Right. He's a nice one. You're going to have to pay your dues in this town.

He was found by the side of the freeway.

He was murdered.

The killer did not commit suicide.

The fool's around.

Well, actually, I never have.

Show me what you've got, lady.

We're going for a little drive. You and me, remember? I wouldn't give her just a

good old -fashioned roll in the hay.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

you'll kiss me if you might have seen mine deep inside of the night you can't

fight the power but don't be kind of crazy

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

What's the problem here?

Nothing. No problem.

Okay. All right.

Come on, Vinnie. Let's beat him up here.

I didn't do nothing.

Why? Who said that?

You don't think I know what you do after I leave, huh?

That you're making tapes for your personal collection.

Vinnie, go home. I'll see you tomorrow.

Hunter? Hunter?

Hunter? Yeah.

You know something, McCall?

I think staking out Bobo Hayden is probably the dumbest idea in all of the

history of surveillance.

Well, at least you get to sleep through it.

You know, you act as if this guy's got the only sawed -off shotgun in all of

Angeles. Look, when we get his gun over to ballistics, you'll change your tune.

Well, you want to talk about some of your classic screw -ups?

You want to know what I think?

I'd think we ought to go in there and bust his door in and drag his hide right

out of here.

Be my guest.

Attention, all units. We have a report of a 187 on the North Bend Connector

between the Santa Monica and San Diego freeways.

This is L -56. We're at the corner of Ohio and Federal. We're rolling on it

I've never seen somebody dead before.

I mean, she was lying there, looking right up at me.

just before the sanitation department.

Pretty funny, Henry. Why don't you go on the Johnny Carson show?

The car's blocking the access road. It's 30 bucks. You better move it, otherwise

it's going to leave on a hook.

Keep the press out of here, will you? Uh, yes.

Hey, thanks. Talk to her.

What about Bubba? I'll go sit on him. You dig up a yearbook from Tremont High

School and find out who the hell that is.

Always have to ask the same questions, you know?

Who was she? Where'd she come from? Why'd it have to happen?

Don't open up a clinic here, okay?

This gets me some time.

And onward and upward they flew till the sun was darkened by their wings

forever.

Yeah, terrific.

You ever done any modeling?

Well, I starred in that play.

Well, you're gonna have to pay your dues in this town.

Wanna turn around?

You've got something.

But these pictures are gonna kill you.

You need professional photographs.

With what money?

I do know of a modeling job.

Photographer's looking for a new face.

There's a little nudity required, but you'll get a whole bunch of photographs

out of it, and, uh...

$300 cash for the day.

Want to show me your legs?

Just a little higher.

Open your top for me, please.

Hey, it's okay. I do this a hundred times a day.

I got to see what I'm selling.

Tony's gonna love you.

Mr. Lawrence Duggan?

Yeah, that's me.

Do you have a daughter, Elizabeth Ann, who graduated from Tremont High School

1979?

Yes, I have.

Nellie.

Who is it, dear?

Sergeant McCall, Metro PD.

Mr. Duggan.

Is this your daughter?

Yes, it is.

I'm sorry to have to tell you this.

But your daughter...

I'm...

I'm very sorry.

She was found by the side of the freeway.

She'd been murdered.

She was beautiful, wasn't she?

Yes, she was.

Do you know who did it?

Well, no.

That's why I'm here. I was hoping perhaps you might have an idea.

We hadn't seen or heard from her in over three years.

We had a card from her.

Christmas time.

Well, do you know where she was living or who her friends were? We didn't even

have her phone number.

Oh, Mr. Duggan.

It was the drugs.

The damn drugs.

Nell?

Honey?

And they have to burn up the ones being checked. Feeling good just like I knew

it would. Because you know I believe my best. So I said that.

Can't give up to make love.

It's a part of life.

Making it give love.

That's such a small.

You know, when I told her parents, they didn't even flinch.

Apparently, they hadn't seen her in about three years. That's when she got

drugs, and after that, not much more.

You know, she reminded me so much of my best friend in high school, Shelly.

You know, when you have a friend like that, it's like you're joined at the hip

or something. We were closer than sisters until she got involved in drugs.

First, it was only recreational.

Ended up with needles and prostitution.

I had to tell her parents, too.

You get him out of my face.

He's not fat.

Right. He's a nice one.

What's up with you, man?

What's your badge number?

I'm going to file a complaint, man. You can't push me around.

I've got brains.

It's an operations office. I realize we're very cramped here, sir, but...

up. What?

I'm filing a complaint, man.

Yo.

Yeah. I want to file a complaint against this...

Officer? Yes, my name is Sergeant Terwilliger, and I'm with Internal

and I'd be glad to help you. Bernie, would you let me do this?

Sergeant Hunter?

Got a moment.

Well, I'm trying to get this suspect processed through detention, Captain,

uh... Humor me.

Take a second. What did the sergeant do to you? I'll take care of it. The guy is

beating me with a rubber club all in the back of my... They never Miranda -sized

me. They never Miranda -sized me. What you gonna do about this?

Captain, I was on surveillance in a part of town where coat and tie would have

drawn a lot of people.

That's fine, but you're not on surveillance now.

See anyone else in this division without a coat and tie?

Yeah, McCall.

You think this is a joke, don't you?

You want to know what I think about the dress code?

By all means. It's great for the Marines and Boy Scouts, but I think a little

leniency should be extended to undercover detectives.

Hunter, when I first transferred here, the morale in this department was very

low. Now, there's a direct correlation between the way people look and the way

they feel. Now, this division is going to look good.

Then maybe next month, maybe next year, it's going to start feeling good.

You know what I think you should do?

You should start a softball league.

It'd be great for morale.

You keep another jacket in your locker.

All right.

By the way, why don't you look into setting up a softball league? It's a

idea. That was just a joke.

Not anymore.

Hunter, they just found another girl's body thrown off the freeway. It's the

same M .O.

I

like

the beat. I think I'll give it an 85.

Come on, man. This is my lunch hour, all right?

Carlos, our two girls on the freeway, same killer.

What do I know? What am I, the medical examiner? I just push the stiffs around,

that's all.

Weren't you the guy who said you had all the brains around here, Carlos?

Jane Doe 1 had two distinct bruises on her neck, 8 1⁄4 inches apart.

Jane Doe 2s were precisely 8 1⁄2, which means your killer or killers had some

big hands.

Now, want to know something else? I think they were killed and dropped at

scene.

Off the top of my head, same killer.

But quote me, and I'll deny it.

Thanks, Carlos.

My morgue, your morgue.

Carlos, don't hurry yourself with that now.

By the way, both Jane Doe's have body makeup on.

I'm talking full body makeup.

Bye.

It's more than a coincidence.

It has to be.

Would you just get me more wine?

Tony, you've got to tell me what's going on.

I mean, I send you Liz, and she ends up dead on the freeway.

And I know that this other body's Evie, because I called her apartment all day,

and nobody's seen her.

What's going on?

If the cops connect those girls to your pictures, they're going to come after

me.

Wait, Tony.

Baby, just relax.

Nobody's going to come after you because nobody's going to see the tapes.

They're only distributed in the Orient.

What's happening to those girls, Tony?

What do I look like? I don't know.

Talk to me.

You are not going to let me eat, are you?

All right, fine. I'm out of here.

Don't shut me out, Tommy.

You've got to help me with this.

All right.

I'm going to tell you something, but if you ever tell anyone, I'll break your

neck.

About 15 years ago, Vinnie, he was going with this girl, girlfriend.

She was killed at the beach.

Nobody could ever prove anything. Vinnie never even stood trial.

But the police thought that he did it.

I'm via the charges. We dropped insufficient evidence. The kid was

when she was killed Come on, I gotta go You think when he killed

those girls, don't you?

Call Still

no idea on Jane Doe to

What I've got here is a list of all the talent agencies that supply girls for

pornographic films and smut magazines.

Hunter! Hunter, I have complaints against you for the violation of the

rights of a Sherwood Bobo Hayden. Not now, Bernie. Hunter!

Uh -huh.

Uh -huh.

Yeah, Marcy, look, the sooner I leave here, the sooner I'll be there. Okay.

I'd like to see Miss Burden, please.

Oh, look, I'm late for lunch. Just have a seat.

Look, it's been an awful long day for me. I've been to seven different

establishments. I'd like to see Miss Bird now.

Well, her calendar's just jammed today. You're going to have to make an

appointment. Hey!

Say hello to my appointment secretary.

Sandy.

Oh.

It's fine. You can go to lunch now.

Sandy. Come on in.

What can I do for you? Sergeant Hunter. Homicide?

Have a seat.

And I was...

I was just wondering if you'd ever seen this young woman before.

The picture's about six years old.

I saw this in the newspaper.

I've been telling all my girls to be doubly careful.

I mean, it's horrible, really horrible.

Did you find the person that did it?

No, not yet.

I'm really sorry I can't be of more help.

So am I.

Thank you.

It's really heartbreaking.

Yes it is.

Ah, Susan, thanks.

Okay. To Anna Cochran.

Seventeen warrants for pandering and pornography.

No convictions.

His brother Vincent's no prince either.

Popped in 68 for strangulation. Death of a young woman. Charges dropped due to

insufficient evidence.

Works with his brother. No known address.

Get out of here.

I'm Andrea, the most waiting.

Hello.

Don't you just love it?

All right, no problem. Tony.

Tony Cochran.

That's that cop I was telling you about.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Well, it's good seeing you again.

Yeah.

I'm Sergeant Hunter.

What's the bust?

This is legit, man. Well, I'd like some information on your brother, Vincent.

About what?

Homicide.

What? I'd like to ask him a few questions.

Did you dredge up his juvenile record?

Well, why didn't you notice that all the charts were dropped?

I just want to ask you, brother, a couple of questions.

Now, do you know where I can find him?

He lives on Boyer Street in the valley, but he's hardly ever there.

He stays with his girlfriend a lot, a Jackie Simmons. She lives in Carson.

Sometimes he stays at my place here in town.

But look, Hunter.

It's Hunter, isn't it?

Yeah. If I see him, I'll tell him to give you a call.

But you're wasting your time, man, because I guarantee you that kid didn't

anything.

Well, thanks a lot for your help. I really appreciate it.

All right,

look, you stay here.

Come right back.

Excuse me, baby. No, no.

Listen, the cops just asked me. Now they're coming in for you, babe. Hot and

heavy. For what?

Murder. What?

Those girls on the freeway. Are you kidding me?

Me? Don't you read the papers? One of them was that girl Liz we just did the

shoot with.

I didn't do anything.

And another thing about Lippy, too.

I didn't do anything, man. I didn't do anything now.

Look, you just sit tight. I'll be right there, all right? Oh, look.

We'll figure it out when I get there, right?

Hey, Vincent.

If you came here to tell me that I killed those girls, you can just stuff

Because I didn't have anything to do with it, and you know it. Vincent, what

you talking about? Stay there!

This time I know I didn't do it.

You know why?

Because I saw you kill them.

Tony, I know, I know.

You killed Libby that night, right?

Right, Tony?

And you let everybody think I did it.

I don't know love with you, kid. Yeah, sure.

Yeah, you're right, I killed Liz and Evie.

But if you think I killed Libby, you're wrong.

Because I did and I couldn't. I couldn't do that to you ever.

I just wanted to come here and tell you I killed those girls.

Benny, I did not want to involve you in this at all. The cops, they started

asking me about you.

I'm sorry, man.

I just wanted to tell you myself before the cops came. See, because I called

them.

I'm giving myself up, eh?

I don't know.

You don't need the gun.

I need a beer. What about you?

The devil!

911 police, Sergeant Stevens?

Yeah, um, I'd like to report a suicide.

Suicide?

Whose?

Akron Vincent Allen.

He's all yours.

How tall was he?

5 '3 and 7 '16.

He still is.

What's the measurement between his thumb and forefinger? Hey, Hunter, I'm good,

but you're asking for too much. Carlos, this case has been closed. We've been

told this is the killer. Now, the problem we have with all of this is you

the killer had a big hand.

Do me a favor. Will you measure that?

Hunter, you're getting on my nerves. Get the tape.

Six and three sixteenths.

Is this the killer? I don't think so.

Well, what do you think?

I think you are the detectives, not me. Okay? Excuse me.

I gotta go.

case without a solve that easy.

I think we must be living right.

This guy's hands are so small they couldn't get him around an eight ball.

Yo, Duke.

How's my favorite one -strip pony right here? Hey, Hunter.

Hey, man.

No more ponies, man. I'm going straight.

Yeah, but try to tell this bullet -headed box of rocks, man.

Runs me in because my hostess with the mostest is selling the charms on Addison

Boulevard. And just happens, mind you, just happens.

to lay half a dust on me.

Four gigs and no tie.

See the watch, Commander. You're working this weekend.

Sounds like we're both in trouble.

That's why I'm borrowing your coat.

Hunter, this world don't cater to borrowers. I'll give it right back to

Yeah, right. I'll give you ten bucks.

Fifty?

Hey, Duke, let's not forget where you are, son.

Ten bucks.

What's it like going through life dressed as an after -dinner man?

I'm not your man.

Hey, don't forget that coat's just rented. I want it back.

Nice coat.

Hunter, a call?

Here's your next case.

Next case? We're already on a case.

The freeway killer case is closed.

Your killer committed suicide.

The two shots were fired from the gun. The killer did not commit suicide. And

then a murder, maybe, but not suicide.

Suicides do that sometimes.

They want to be sure their gun will work.

Look, Hunter, the man not only had the gun in his hand, but the ME says that's

where it was when it was fired.

It was his gun. He had just been informed that we were looking for him,

you're telling me it's the wrong man.

What do you want?

Bigger hands.

See, the bruises on the victim's neck indicated that the killer had very large

hands. The measurements on a strangulation victim's neck are inexact

There's too many variables.

There's angle, there's force, there's strength.

But I'll give you something that is exact.

If a murder case isn't solved in the first 48 hours, there is a 90 % chance

it never will be solved.

Now, I don't have nearly enough manpower. The most efficient use of your

on this next case. Get on it.

Keep an extra shirt and tie in your locker, too.

Vince Cochran is not the guy.

Now, I talked to Tony Cochran.

He's a liar, a real good liar.

Now, he had access to the girls.

He also had a brother that would take the fall for him.

He's got big hands.

This is the guy I'm telling you. It has to be something.

Tapes or films.

Print something that will tie him to this girl.

I think I'm going to have to get to know Mr. Tony Cochran.

What? Tim?

Sandy the face.

I'm Dee Dee.

Andrea. New here?

Yeah.

Oh, I really needed that.

I sure haven't been getting enough physical exercise, if you know what I

The kind of physical exercise that I would like to get.

I don't know what it is. It's like every guy you meet, he's either gay or he's

got nine kids or he's hung up on being sensitive or something.

What I wouldn't give for just a good old -fashioned roll in the hay.

It's very serious. You don't always get what you see.

No, I don't.

You know, you always get these gorgeous guys, and then you get them in a sack.

Oh, I try to be such a wimp.

Boy, what I wouldn't give for a man.

Honey, I got a bet for you.

It's a great place to have a party. Party? It hasn't even started yet.

Tony!

Hey.

You got me.

Dee Dee.

Dee Dee.

Hi.

You got a sensational look.

Sensational. Thanks, studio.

You're a model, right?

Well, actually, I never have.

A natural, huh?

Well, I have fooled around a little bit with video cameras.

She fools around.

Would you like to do a session with me?

Yeah, I think that'd be great.

You got it.

Tosh!

Right, right.

Move over to the chair.

Show me what you're about, lady.

That's it.

That's it.

Perfect. Perfect. Perfect.

Give me the tag of the... Come on.

All right, use it any way you want.

Any way you want, daddy.

You like that, right?

I'm out of film.

I'll tell you what.

How about if we do a whole session tomorrow?

Is that all right?

Yeah. Yeah?

Is that right?

Let's wait.

To the camera.

Yeah?

I really think you ought to wear a wire here.

What, so we can find it?

Look, you can't go in there without some sort of a wire.

Look, Hunter, if I have any trouble at all, I'll scream, all right?

And I got a good one.

Whatever happened to that old frivolous attitude you had about not being

somebody's sitting duck, huh? This is different.

Hey.

Be careful, huh?

Hunter!

Hunter, we've got to talk right now.

Great, Murray. I'm late for surveillance.

You can't run away from this, Hunter. That's why they put me in I .A. I'm a

bulldog. What happened to your door?

It's at the door, Doctor. I'm out of here.

Give me no choice.

Good morning.

Did I get you up too early?

What's happening?

Going on location.

You know, last night, I couldn't stop thinking about you.

You're turning me on.

Listen, I need about 15 minutes.

Why don't you put some makeup on?

Complaint number five.

The alleged attack on the same Sherwood Bobo Hayden.

Bernie, I consider an attempted rundown and a missing door due cause.

Hunter, I don't have anything in here about an attempted rundown or a missing

door, for that matter.

Did you file a report?

I guess I'll have to check on that, too.

Complaint number six.

Hey.

I was just looking at some of your stuff.

You like it?

You do great work.

Yeah? You think I got some talent?

Definitely.

Good stuff.

Great.

Whisper something in here between you and me. You're a cop.

You're a cop.

Huh?

We're going for a little drive. You and me, remember?

A little drive, right?

What's

happening?

the cockpit.

That case is closed, Hunter. Whoa.

That case is closed. Get out. What?

Get out.

asked me jenny's making a fool of herself the guy is a jerk look hey hold

second where is she would you mind please just leaving where is she

I'm looking for Andrea Byrd. Where is she? Four.

She took the early class. Five. Her car's still outside.

Six. She's probably still in the locker room. Seven.

Eight. Hey!

Where's Tony Cochran? What do you want from me? Look, you're in trouble, lady,

big trouble. We know you've been supplying this guy with girls, and those

wind up murdered.

Now, Tony's got my partner. Now, where is he?

I thought Vincent... Vincent didn't do a thing. Tony killed those two girls.

Now, where is he?

Malibu. Where in Malibu?

Tony, you're never going to get away with this.

There's backup units on their way here right now.

You're wrong, sweet thing.

Because this case is closed. My brother killed those girls.

You're going to make history, sweet thing. Did you know that?

I can see it now.

The ultimate moments, life and death.

Opposites together as one.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

You know what?

They're all going to be captured right there on that little magic tape.

Please don't. Please.

Are you begging me?

Are you begging me?

Say it again.

Come on, say it again.

Come on, say it again.

Say it again.

Beg me.

Come on, beg me. No, you don't. Please. Come on, come on, say it again. Come on.

That makes seven complaints against Hunter on this one case alone, sir.

We also have an internal matter we have to discuss.

Sergeant Hunter abandoned a fellow officer.

Come in, Hunter. We were just talking about our situation the other day. Thank

you, Sergeant.

Gather.

Williger, get out.

Excuse me.

Now, you two deliberately disobeyed my instructions.

Fortunately, you were right.

This time, don't press your luck.

Right?

Hunter!

Bless the tie.
