I am Carlos Mariano.

Raul Mariano was my brother.

He beat me up and raped me.

I'm going to kill you.

You so much as go for your handkerchief,
I'm going to put a bullet right through

your head, you understand?

I think everyone is overreacting to this
thing.

Mariano has full diplomatic immunity.

You have a license to kill. You can pop
me any place, any time. I don't like

that. This suspense is killing me. Isn't
it killing you?

Oh, boy, is that low.

What?

The woman who just threw her trash off
the fire escape and landed down in the

alley.

What are we doing here?

I mean, why can't we be staking out some
society killer at a polo match or

something? They don't have polo matches
at 3 o 'clock in the morning.

3 o 'clock? It's only 3 o 'clock?

Oh, give me a break.

What's that?

I'll tell you in just a second.

He's not our boy.

You sure?

Look, they call little Cosmo little
Cosmo because he's six foot five inches

tall. What we're seeing here is a four
foot nine inch rhino.

You know the problem with these killer
drug dealers?

Totally unreliable.

Did we or did we not get it from an
unimpeachable source?

Sporty James is a very impeachable
source. You know not to cry wolf, you

that.

I tell you, it's a low -class killer to
this girlfriend lady.

Sergeant Hunter!

You are Sergeant Hunter? Yes, I am.

I am Carlos Mariano.

I'm sure you recall the name.

Raul Mariano was my brother.

He was my favorite brother.

What do you want? Why are you here?

Ah, you will be Sergeant McCall.

I am the cultural attaché with the
Kuruwayan Embassy.

Does my presence disturb you?

That depends on why you're here.

I would like to speak to you.

Only for a moment.

Perhaps you can guess why.

No, I can't. I'm going to kill you.

I thought that you should be properly
informed.

You want to try it now?

No, no, no, no, no, no. Please,
senorita, not now.

In my own good time, and I will give you
generous warning.

Let me give you generous warning.

I don't like death threats. I take them
very seriously.

You should take this seriously, Sergeant
Hunter.

Very seriously.

Why don't you just shoot me instead of
playing these kid games?

I will not expect you to understand.

How I kill you is a matter of great
importance.

It is a matter of honor.

I will not kill you the way you killed
my brother.

Defenseless, unaware, and helpless.

Defenseless and unaware?

Your brother was a rapist and a killer.
Why don't you get in your limo and get

the hell out of here? Okay, just relax
just for a minute here.

If I see you again, you so much as go
for your handkerchief, I'm gonna put a

bullet right through your head, you
understand?

Now, that's something I learned from
your murdering brother.

You will hear from me.

A postcard will do.

This isn't funny.

Who the hell's laughing?

So why don't we cut the guy and take him
upstairs?

You heard him.

He's an attache. He's probably got
diplomatic immunity.

Here we go again.

Let's go find out.

What's the area code for D .C.? 202.

Is there anything on Cosmo yet?

No, not yet.

Yes, I need the number of the United
States State Department Office of...

McCall, we gotta get this guy. He's too
damn scary to have out there on the

street. Yes, you can.

Well? They have to call back.

Hunter, you're staking out Cosmo again
tonight, right? Yeah, only if I get some

sleep. And if McCall makes a batch of
potato poopies.

Be careful.

Of what? You know of what.

Lash LaRue? Come on, he's hell -smoked.

You're so macho sleep tight buckle up

So, did you get some sleep last night?

I tried.

How you doing?

What do you mean?

Well, I mean this Carlos deal. I mean,
he's not dredging up bad memories for

you, is he?

Yeah, well.

My problems are in the past. You know,
he didn't say he was going to try to

me. Now, wait a minute. He's not going
to kill anybody. I mean, he's... He's

conducting himself here like some sort
of South American fraternity prank.

What do you think you're kidding? I bet
you five bucks you went home last night

and cleaned your gun for an hour.
Fifteen minutes.

You think he's working on this by
himself?

My guess is his father, the
Generalissimo, knows about it, maybe

it.

If he's working on this alone...

Maybe you ought to go talk to the
Uruguayan consul. No, I'm not going to

the Uruguayan consul. That is a dead
end. That is a waste of time. Remember

last time?

I'm going to go talk to him.

Hmm.

A lot of headroom in that car.

Think it's Cosmo?

Let's go take a look.

Move it. Go home.

Freeze right there, police.

Up against the wall. Come on, move it.

Come on, over here.

Atta boy.

Run it out.

Oh, what's your name?

Kerwin Sipes. I live here.

Kerwin Sipes. Well, Mr. Sipes, I
apologize. I think we got the wrong guy.

Hey, cop, you looking for Cosmo?

He ain't so stupid he's going to show up
here.

Lady, if you know Cosmo, please tell him
this. We have to catch him, otherwise

we're going to lose our jobs. Thank you.
Good night.

Uh, Mr. Sipes, it was a mistake. We're
very sorry. Sorry.

Oh, words of cheap lady.

You slam me up against the wall, you
frisk me, and then you say you're sorry?

You can keep your damn sorry.

I'm going to have you both up on
charges.

Oh, well, let's see. Kerwin Sipes.

Sipes, Sipes, Sipes, Sipes. You know,
this is a very familiar name.

Sipes, yeah.

Yeah, I know that name. You should
probably write it. Look, look.

Anyone can make a mistake now and then.

Let's both just forgive and forget,
okay?

Yeah. Okay, Kerwin, we'll forgive and
forget.

But I highly recommend that next time
someone offers you a sincere apology,

accept it.

Yeah, right, right, right.

We're both sorry, right? Good. Yeah.

Still nothing on Cosmo? Nothing on
Cosmo.

has full diplomatic immunity as we
thought.

Either of you guys call the office of
protocol in Washington?

Yeah, I do.

You two want to come into my office?

Who the hell is Carlos Mariano?

What happened six months or so ago,
Charlie, before you came into the

It's a very long story.

Well, make it a short story and tell it
now.

Last year, there was a rape homicide at
the Curuguayan consulate.

Raul Mariano was the attache.

Related how to this one?

His brother.

When I interrogated him at the
consulate, he tried to make a date with

I turned him down.

The guy showed up at my house.

And he beat me up and raped me.

I'm sorry to bring up painful memories,
Dee Dee.

What happened to the guy?

Well, he had diplomatic community,
Charlie.

I punched him out and he shows up at my
house a couple hours later and he shoots

me.

And Mariano?

Well, the embassy hustled him back to
Corigua.

End of story.

You didn't go down to Corigua after?

Captain, they didn't charge him with a
thing when he got back down there. He

killed a woman here. He raped me. He
practically killed Hunter.

If ever there was a walking argument for
summary execution, this guy was it.

I don't believe this. You went down
there and killed him?

Charlie, the guy was going to shoot me
in the back.

So rather than give him a second
opportunity to do that, yeah, I killed

His father, General Mariano, didn't want
all that stuff coming out about his

son, so he...

invented some kind of cover -up and said
the guy was killed in an accident.

What about this Carlos Mariano?

Well, he shows up in the parking lot
yesterday.

Threatens my life in front of Sergeant
McCall.

Mariano has full diplomatic immunity.

If he hauls off and shoots you, the best
we can do is ask his country to give

him a free plane ride back home. I know
that, Charlie. I plan to do something

about that. Like hell you do.

I'm going to call the State Department
and have them handle this. Wait a

Come on, Charlie. The State Department
is a waste of time.

Believe me, they have other priorities.

Suppose I tell you to ignore him.

I think under the circumstances,
Charlie, you won't ask me that.

As was reported in all the Uruguayan
newspapers, Raul Mariano was killed

tragically in a hunting accident.

And as to the stories that you choose to
tell about a member of the presidential

family, well, I cannot imagine what
motivates you, a woman in your position,

Senorita McCall, to say such things.

How about the truth? Is that enough
motivation for you?

The truth.

Have it your way, Senorita McCall.

It is not my way. It's the truth.

Let me ask you something. What happens
to you, huh?

What happens to your cushy little job
here if Sergeant Hunter is forced to

your boss's son?

If Senor Hunter so much as approaches
Carlos Mariano, we will have your State

Department take the necessary steps to
deal with him.

And I suggest that you plead with Senor
Hunter, not with me.

Have you talked to Carlos Mariano?

Of course.

Would you like to speak with him?

Yeah, I would.

You didn't have to go far to get him,
did you? Do you know this woman?

Yes.

In view of Sergeant Hunter's prior
relationship with my family, I paid him

courtesy visit at his place of work, and
Senorita McCall was with him.

Yeah, the most courteous death threat I
ever heard.

That is her claim, Carlito. Did you make
any such threat?

Certainly not.

Oh, come on, Carlos. You're blowing your
whole act. What about all that talk

about honor?

I'm afraid that my presence disturbs the
senorita.

I made no threats.

Perhaps you need the help of a
professional who deals in emotional

Senorita McCall, I am trying to be
helpful.

Yeah, well, you're not making it, pal.

But you are giving me a great lesson in
diplomacy.

All life is an education, senorita.

By the way, Mr. Mariano.

Your brother was a creep and he deserved
to die.

How did you

get

in here? I can get in any place.

Let's talk, Carlos.

Sit down.

You have me at a great disadvantage,
unarmed and naked.

Carlos, you have a license to kill. You
can pop me any place, any time. I don't

like that.

I do not intend to pop you, Sergeant
Hunter.

I intend to give you every opportunity
to defend yourself.

Only then will I kill you.

I am not going to play your childish
game with you, you understand me?

Now, here's what you're going to do.
You're going to go down to the airport,

you're going to get on an airplane for
Kirkway, and you're not going to come

back.

If you don't get on the airplane, I'm
going to shoot you. I don't want to have

to do that.

Nothing to say about that?

I am a man of action, not of words.

So am I.

Then good day.

Called you this morning?

You weren't home. Where were you?

Well, I paid a nice morning visit to
Lash LaRue and told him to get me out of

town or I would punch his ticket for
him.

Hunter, that's not a good idea.

It's been the rest of your life in the
glass house, you know?

Did he listen to you?

I hope so, Pissy.

Hunter. Hey, Hunter.

Joey, Joey, Joey. How you doing?

Little Cosmo got... see a guy about some
money he needs to get out of town.

So if you want to get him before he
splits, this is going to be your only

chance. Where do I find him?

How about, uh... Uh... How about 500?

200 if he shows.

This is dangerous stuff, man. I think
it's worth something, risking getting on

the wrong side of Cosmo.

400 bucks, that's it, Joey. Where is he?

Oh, you're my man!

You're my man!

Okay.

That's only this.

I want to see the money first.

You bring me the money, I'll take you to
him, okay? Doesn't work that way, Joey.

Gotta deliver first.

It's special, Hunter.

I mean, you want him, you meet me first
with the money, okay?

And I don't want to be seen together.

You know that factory my uncle or Warren
Wilton? Yeah, the one that the INS

shut down?

You meet me there.

And Cosmo's all yours, okay?

Got it. Okay, buddy.

Give me the money.

Who's the rest?

After Hunter appears, you will get the
rest.

You don't understand, man. I just
prospered Hunter.

I'm going to have to leave this town far
behind.

After tonight, Hunter will be dead.

No, Walter, wait a minute. Wait, man.

Give me the money. Give me the money
right now. The deal is off.

I want to call them right now.

And I want to call the whole thing off.

Joey! Joey!

Hunter!

Carlos, are you still in town?

So, you decided to stay and give me a
surprise party, huh? You think this is a

joke?

No, I think that's a .44 Magnum.

You have a gun?

Well, come on. You know police officers
always carry guns.

Is the safety on?

I'll let you wonder about that.

Your choice, my friend.

In 15 seconds, I intend to draw my gun
and shoot.

If you want to try for your gun sooner,
do so.

Carlos, you've seen way too many John
Wayne movies.

Honor does not go out of style.

And if one is a man of honor, there are
certain things that can only be settled

this way.

You have ten more seconds.

I also like the way your eyes narrow,
just like the Duke. That's very good.

Why don't you draw?

I don't want to kill you in cold blood,
but if you insist on being a coward, I

will. You're going to be dead in ten
seconds, Carlos.

No, you will be dead in five seconds.

No. No.

No. I'll talk to you later.

We're going to release him.

So what else is new?

Can't hold him without the consulate's
okay.

They say no.

I'm going to call Washington.

Have someone come down here tomorrow.
We're going to get this thing settled.

That guy's a nut.

Yeah, you do that, Charlie.

I think everyone is overreacting to this
thing.

Overreacting?

First, you do not charge a man with full
diplomatic immunity.

You can detain him, but you cannot
charge him. The man's lucky I didn't

him. And you'll be lucky if the Curiguan
embassy doesn't file harassment charges

against you, Sergeant.

So I suggest you stay on the listening
end of this.

This guy Mariano, he can't be completely
above the law.

Suppose he wasted 20 people in Pershing
Square.

We demand that his country recall him.

That doesn't work. I've gone through
that.

We'd make him persona non grata, and
he'd be out of here.

Good. Make him persona non grata,
because I don't want to kill this guy,

Charlie. You'd better not kill him.

Uruguay is a country of enormous
strategic importance to United States

policy. So maybe you better have this
guy Mariano declared persona non grata

before things get out of hand.

Why? What has the man done?

He's mouthed off a little, flashed a gun
for which he does have a permit.

He's a soldier, Hunter, a man who
learned to swagger at an early age.

It would be best for you and best for
your country if you would just ignore

He's not gonna let me ignore him. Don't
you get it? We've got a big problem

here, Charlie. I mean a big one.

What is it?

You're not going to believe his
following.

Great.

Get out of the car.

Come on.

Move it. You have no right to arrest me.
I know that.

Don't I know that. Spread out.

We got company.

Stay right there.

Get out of the car.

Come on.

I am a member of the Curuguayan
diplomatic legation, sir. Good.

Turn around.

Oh, I see you people carry your honor
with you, Carlos, huh?

Colonel Ramirez, ¿qué está haciendo
usted aquí?

¿Lo mandó mi padre para vigilarme?

Su padre está preocupado por usted.
Speak English, will you? Todo está bajo

control. Usted no tiene por qué estar
aquí.

Sí, ya veo que todo está bajo control.
Who are you? I am Colonel Hector Ramirez

of the Curaguayan 2nd Cavalry Unit.

Oh, you're here on maneuvers, huh? What
I am doing here is none of your

business, señor.

Concealed weapons and reckless driving
are my business.

I am a part of the consulate staff,
senor. Oh, you're a part of the

staff, not the embassy? The consulate
staff, that is correct.

Do me a favor and tell him the bad news.

We happen to be experts on diplomatic
immunity.

The bad news is that you're under
arrest.

Yeah, turn around. Come on.

Don't even think about it.

Come on.

I have no reason to assist you. I don't
want you here.

And in any case, the young lady had a
gun pointed at me.

And I will tell your father that a woman
prevented you from helping me.

Would have prevented you too.

Tell my father there is no need to send
anyone to assist me. I am here by my own

choice and I will do what has to be done
by my own rules.

Put him in the car.

And what about me?

Oh, you see, Carlos, you can go. You've
got diplomatic immunity, remember?

And my gun?

Are you serious?

You should understand by now, Hunter,
that I am nothing if not serious.

I'm going to keep your gun.

You think that by taking the gun you can
avoid facing me?

You should have got on that airplane.

This is Colonel Hector Ramirez. I want
you to book him on reckless driving,

carrying a concealed weapon, resisting
arrest, and assault on a police officer.

Put him in a holding cell for me.

I want to go see a man about a
deportation order.

Senor Hunter, if I leave, there will be
someone to replace me in 24 hours.

You are accomplishing nothing.

Are you friends with General Mariano?

I am on his personal staff, yes. Good.

I want you to do me a favor. Tell him to
send his son a ticket home. Otherwise,

I will send his son back to him in a
body bag.

You sound very confident.

Very. Perhaps too confident.

Carlos Mariano is a distinguished
graduate of our academia militar.

He has won honors in martial arts and
marksmanship.

There is no one, I mean no one in the
Curuguayan army who can match him. As

brother distinguished himself in the
fine arts, Carlos has distinguished

in the manly arts.

I would not be so cavalier if I were
you, señor. Thank you so much.

Listen, you know, maybe you ought to go
on up to Montana or something. Go on a

little fishing trip.

Montana? What do you got against
Montana?

That's not going to do any good. He's
going to go up there and find me, or

going to wait until I get back.

No, I think the best way to do this is
just meet the guy at Sunset Boulevard at

high noon.

I'll tell you what.

You can put together a poker game with
six of your buddies for witnesses, you

know. I'll blow them away.

You're always so practical.

There he is.

That's Cosmo.

Give up, man.

Come on, run him out.

Hey, Hunter.

You got him.

Yep. Good.

Good work. Thanks a million.

Now we get to go on to the next case.

How come you're still alive?

Carlos give up?

Very funny. Well, you know, I actually
haven't seen the guy in the last six or

seven hours. You know, you really should
think about going someplace.

Oh, I am. I'm going home to bed.

Good night.

Hey, Hunter.

Yeah.

Listen, why don't you come sleep at my
house tonight, huh? You stay on the

couch. It's nice, cushy, it's real
comfy.

You never know what corner this guy's
going to come popping out of. Carlos is

not going to come popping out of any
corner.

He's not going to pop out of a tree on
top of me.

That wouldn't be honorable.

Carlos thinks this is Dodge City, not
Los Angeles.

Good night.

Lock up, okay?

Oh, Carlos, you disappoint me.

Hey, just a sec. Get your hands off of
that.

What happened to the good old -fashioned
western shootout in the middle of the

street, huh?

Pongan en las esposas y amarren en las
piernas.

It's funny, Carlos. I was just telling
my partner how honorable you were.

Con prisa.

We're not being followed, Hunter.

I needed those men to get you into the
car.

You will not be seeing them again.

What's the matter, Hunter?

Suddenly this is not so amusing to you,
huh?

Well, you take it, man.

You will know soon enough.

Now we wait for daylight.

High noon, huh?

Just daylight.

I want you to see me when it happens.

And I want to see you.

You know, camping is something I never
quite got around to doing.

You're regaining your sense of humor.

I'm optimistic.

Air is fresh out here.

Nobody's dead yet, and we have the rest
of the night to talk.

There is no need to talk.

Afraid you might learn something?

I am afraid of nothing that you might
say.

Well, at least you didn't kill me in
cold blood.

Difficult for you to understand, is it
not?

You know, Carlos, when I went down the
Krogway, I was going to kill your

the first chance I got. Walk right up to
him and pull the trigger.

Which you did.

No, that's not what I did.

I gave him an opportunity to defend
himself.

Just like the opportunity you're giving
me.

I'm not interested in your apologies.

But he refused that opportunity.

And that's when I realized I could not
kill a human being in cold blood,

With all the frustration and all the
anger and all the planning and the

of revenge that I had, there I was with
my automatic pistol jammed in your

brother's face and I could not pull the
trigger.

Can you believe that?

It had nothing to do with honor. It had
everything to do with me realizing that

I was...

A civilized human being.

Well, with those feelings, I turned and
walked away.

And that's when your brother went for
his gun.

Yeah, Carlos, your brother was going to
shoot me in the back.

Well, I turned just as he got off his
first shot. And that's when I killed

brother. My brother was a gentle man. He
knew nothing of guns. He was an artist,

a poet. Your brother was a coward.
Whatever he was, you killed him. He had

way to defend himself against a trained
man like you.

He was a rapist.

That is too funny.

He could have any woman he wanted.

I found my partner on the floor of her
bedroom.

Where she had invited him.

No, where he invited himself.

I knew my brother and I loved him.

I did not know your partner.

I believed him, not her.

Your brother was a liar.

Finn here. Lieutenant, he's not here.

The whole place is trash. There's
furniture broken. I don't know where he

What about his car? Is it there?

Yeah. Damn.

That makes an APB next to useless.

All right, look, I'll do whatever I can
at this end. You go on home and get some

sleep. You might need it. I'm not going
to go home and get some sleep,

Lieutenant. Send a fingerprint team over
here on the double. I'm going to wait

for them. You got it.

You were asleep, my friend.

Very good, Carlos.

Don't let the enemy sleep, huh?

What's the matter? Couldn't you sleep?

I could sleep like a baby if I thought I
could trust you.

But you know nothing of honor.

So I cannot trust you.

You're right.

I'm going to kill you the first chance I
get.

I know that.

So I will forego this sleep.

Too bad.

I won't.

Good night.

I have allowed you to enter here, and I
have shown you the courtesy to hear you

out. So do not use that tone of voice
again, Senorita McCall, or you will be

asked to leave.

When you said that I couldn't possibly
have known that two of your security

people entered Sergeant Hunter's home,
I... I lost my temper. That won't happen

again.

But I do know that they were there.
Their fingerprints were all over the

And how could you possibly know?

The fingerprints of my security
personnel.

Es una mentira. ¿Me entiendes? You are
lying.

When they apply for guns to carry on our
streets, we register their

fingerprints. Now, those fingerprints,
fresh ones, are all over Sergeant

Hunter's home. Sergeant Hunter is
missing, and there's clear evidence of a

violent struggle. Those two men do not
enjoy diplomatic immunity, so we came

here to take them into custody.

Not in this consulate, you won't. And
both those men are here. And if you wish

to arrest them... You will have to do it
outside this premises.

Sir, we are asking for your cooperation
here.

Now, one of our officers has been
forcibly kidnapped unquestionably by

Mariano. But Carlos Mariano is here.

Now, here in his quarters, here in the
consulate. Fine. Give us five minutes

with him and then we're out of your air.

And since Senor Mariano is here, there
is obviously nothing to be gained for

to talk to him, is there? He isn't here
and you know it.

You are refusing to cooperate in the
investigation of a felony involving

that you are responsible for.

And he does not speak your language.

So I advise you to leave quietly and
immediately.

Hunter. Get up.

You're caught.

On your feet.

Come on.

I am ready.

But I will wait if you are not.

You are dizzy, perhaps.

Don't worry about me, Carlos. Let's do
it.

Over to the rock.

It is a good day to die, Hunter.

That is a Sioux Indian expression.

Did you know that?

Yeah, I saw the movie, Carlos. Let's go.
Come on.

The gun is loaded.

Put it in your holster.

I want to check it. There is no need.

I have seen to it.

Left hand.

And do it very slowly and very wisely.

I'll wait.

You are learning something about honor,
my friend.

Here we are at last, huh?

Face to face.

One man against another.

Your move.

Kill me, why don't you?

Now, that was talk. This is reality.

Come on, get up. We're going to the
hospital.

McCall, you've done everything you
could.

The State Department's grilling the
consul. We're trying to cover the bases.

Hey, Hunter.

I've been camping.

You all right?

Yeah. Where's Mariano?

Well, that's a long story. Charlie, you
better get on the phone and call that

bureaucrat from the State Department. I
think we got ourselves a real live

persona non grata.

Your attention, please.

Flight six for Rio de Janeiro, now
boarding at gate 15.

How is your hip?

I've got five stitches in it.

Why are you here?

To make sure that I am really going.

No, Carlos, I'm here to make sure you
don't go back.

There was only one way you could have
assured yourself of that.

You failed to do it.

I don't think I made a mistake, do you?

No.

My father will understand.

He understands the code that I live by.
It is his code.

And I have concluded that it is also
yours.

Final boarding call for flight 11 to San
Pablo, Uruguay, gate 7.

Goodbye, Hunter.

Let's hope so.
