Tonight on Hunter.

Probably the same talent who pulled the five other jobs, only this time they

brought fireworks.

You robbed a bank owned by a vicious mob, Bob? I know this cop named Hunter.

Owes me a big one.

I owe Smokey my life.

What? I don't want to talk about it.

Get out!

A million dollar scam.

Down the toilet!

You haven't booked Terry Smulky because he's going to help us pull another bank

job.

Very tall, money.

And 200 Gs.

The last time I saw this much green in one place, it was that big vacuum

thing in Vegas. That's right.

At the dunes, they had a naked lady swimming in it. The beauty part is, we

have to fence a nickel of this.

It's all 10s and 20s, used bills.

Easy to pass.

Vance.

You're a genius.

Tomorrow night, Mimi and me, we're going to be strolling through the mall like

royalty, and I'm going to pick out something nice for you. Just put it

We're eight minutes behind.

So then, come down to the fight.

Hurry up!

I'm coming, I'm looking, I'm looking!

Hurry up!

Tommy's ten feet behind you!

Your bomb squad thinks it was a shaped charge.

It's cut off remote.

You wake up like with a garage door opener.

It's probably the same talent who pulled at five other jobs.

Except this time they brought their fireworks.

What I want to know is why they decided to blow this particular tunnel.

I don't know.

I'll tell you what I think.

Two styrofoam cups, two crowbars, one dead body in the tunnel.

I think one partner decided he didn't want to partner.

Why suddenly decide to hassle Harvey Falk? He's the backdoor money here.

Oh, that's still only rumor, Hunter. My office has been trying to connect Falk

with Third National. He's built a paper jungle.

Frank Buck and 20 MBAs would get lost.

Well, thanks.

Well, I thank you. This is Falk's Bank. The lucky one is the corpse.

Hey, it's Stuart.

Haven't seen you since the crash of 87 and that shootout at the stock exchange.

Got any insider tips?

Buy low, sell high.

You know, the thief must have liked what he got in there because he left stuff

behind in the safety deposit boxes.

Stuff you could take to a fence, bag a few hundred thousand.

Well, see you guys.

Thanks, Stuart.

Got an ID on the body.

It's a Michael Andelman.

This rap sheet's mainly small -time stuff. This tunnel job was a definite

move. Michael Murray Andelman?

Yeah, Michael Murray Andelman. You know him? Yeah.

And his brother -in -law partner, Terry Smokey. The albatross around my neck.

What do you mean?

I don't want to talk about that.

Well, wait a minute, wait a minute. What are you talking about?

I owe Smokey my life.

What? I don't want to talk about that.

Just leave me like that? What do you mean?

The three months you come home covered in dirt, you won't tell me why, and now

it's all over the front page.

Hey, baby, how about this? It says we get 18 months' parts and labor.

Don't tell me it wasn't you and Murray.

Oh, my God, they found a dead man. Is it Murray?

Tell me it isn't Murray.

They got this humidity control thing in the crisper. You break a stalk of

celery, you could go deaf.

Three days ago, I had a dream something terrible was going to happen.

In my dream, I was going bald, but it's the same.

I don't hear you saying I'm crazy, Terry.

How could you let my brother -in -law die in the sewer?

I didn't let him die.

He went back to get his cigarettes in the roof cave then.

Believe me, baby, it was an accident.

Oh, come on. How do you think I feel? I'm the guy who kept telling him to quit

smoking. Oh, and when were you going to tell me he quit smoking for good?

Thanksgiving, when there's an empty chair at the table?

Who got you two involved in bank jobs, anyway?

It's not your speed.

This friend of Murray's you met, Vance, he'd pick out the bank, and we would do

the digging.

Third National was going to be our last hit, and then we were going to take our

splits. And to top it off, I didn't even get the money.

Vance made off with the haul from all six jobs, including a couple hundred

in old bills.

We owe it to Murray to get his cut for my sister.

Nobody in this building ever rings me.

These kids, they come up here, they take whatever they want. Beer, sodas.

Cops.

Hey, it's a great BMW.

I don't get it.

There are two scrotes who work for Harvey Falk. What did Harvey Falk want

us?

What a surprise!

Well, we apologize for not calling ahead, Terry, but we really do need a

contact. It's Mimi, right?

We met once at a family weekend in Chino.

Hi. Oh, my, you have done a lovely job with this place here, Mimi.

It's subtle, yet still mighty comfy.

Mm -hmm, yeah.

We heard about Mary, and we wanted you both to know that we share in your hour

of sorrow.

Thank you. That's very nice.

Word's on the street, is it?

Why don't you make yourselves at home? I've got some coffee on. It's good and

strong. Oh, thank you, Mimi, but we're strictly decaf.

Now, as we mentioned, we both share in your loss, but unfortunately, Mr. Falk

doesn't quite feel the same.

Did Mr.

Falk have something against Murray?

No, not personally, Mimi.

He was just upset because it was his bank Murray was robbing when he died.

You robbed a bank owned by a vicious mob boss?

Come on, Kelly.

I'm not so stupid that I would rob a bank owned by Mr. Falk.

No, the guy you want is this engineer named Vance.

But I swear, I don't know how to find him.

What a surprise.

Mr. Falk gets his money today.

or we're going to express mail pieces of your body to every state in the Union.

Well, we'll let ourselves out.

Mimi? Nice seeing you again, Mimi.

First you bury Murray, and now you're going to make me a widow.

Go get our shares from Vance. I'm packing our books for Cuba.

I wasn't kidding, babe.

I don't know how to find him.

Then why in the hell are you smiling?

All banks have insurance.

I'll bet that unmarked cash wasn't on Falk's books. That's why he sent his

college boys over here to get it.

I know that look. That's your crazy look.

I know this cop named Hunter owes me a big one.

I hand him Harvey Falk.

He hands me a reward.

Smokey's ducked out on his last previous address. I have no idea where he is.

Yeah, ditto on Murray Antleman. You know, those guys have only been off

for five months. That's an awful lot of moving around.

You remember Duckworth down in records, don't you?

Duckworth? Yeah, I know Duckworth.

He has a very interesting story about those guys.

Yeah? Yeah.

It seems several years ago, they were both found boosting camera equipment out

of this department store, disguised as delivery men.

A rookie cop answered the call, and when he got there, there was some guy in the

alley who was all whacked out on PCP or something, and when he saw the uniform,

he pulled a gun.

Well, Terry Smolke beat this guy from behind with a telephoto lens, thus

saving the rookie cop's life.

Really? Yeah.

And the rookie pop's name was... Richard Hunter.

Yeah, forget it then.

Hunter.

Yes, Sporty, what do you want?

Yeah, I'm listening.

You see, that's not gonna happen, Sporty. Uh -huh.

All right.

Give me the address.

Yeah.

Yeah, I got a deal.

I said you got a deal.

You just made a deal with Sporty in less than a minute.

Yeah, well, you see, Sporty's in the agent business.

He just signed Terry Smokey. He found him?

Well, actually, Terry found him.

To negotiate.

Oh, I... Do I throw a payback here?

You can smell what you want.

I'm going to run this address.

Oh, and listen, do all of this.

a service, do something constructive.

Run a check on all the backgrounds of all the ex -cons and parolees that you

find that has a tunneling M .O.

Say hi to Terry.

Yeah, I will.

This makes six banks tunnel into and robbed in L .A. this year. But the first

real lead, the bank robber's body was identified as Murray Andelman, a part

-time lawnmower repairman from Reseda with a history of petty crimes.

Police are searching for Andelman's accomplice who survived the tunnel

explosion. Police are hopeful they can track Andelman's movements and locate

some of the stolen millions, mostly personal jewelry taken from safe deposit

boxes. Next, we'll check the weekend weather.

All I have is pimento spread.

Terry ate the cheddar ball when he came back from, uh, work.

How do you like your ice, Hunter? Get in here, Terry.

Sergeant Hunter doesn't care about your stupid refrigerator.

Listen, Terry's had a hard life.

The thing with his mother and... But you know this bit.

I just want to keep him out of jail.

I'll be gentle.

Okay.

I appreciate it. All right.

Let's see.

Who had it crushed?

And who had the cubes?

Sit down.

Isn't this great?

To be able to sit here among friends, to breathe the air, to enjoy a chilled

drink.

Life. It's really something, isn't it?

Do you want to tell me about Vance?

We'd set up the jobs.

We'd dig.

We didn't even know where the tunnels were going.

You can't spit on that stretch of Wilshire without hitting a bank, and

look the same on the inside.

Did you tell Falk's men where Vance was?

I don't know where he is.

Tell them about the money, baby.

We found the bag of old money.

About 200 Gs.

It wasn't on the bank's books.

See, that's what I think Falk is really after.

He's using the bank as a laundry.

How about you and I take a little hop down and see the cooking sergeant, shall

we? Wait a minute.

Remember what I did for you? How can I forget?

Don't I deserve a deal?

If you help me catch a killer.

Killer? Yeah, you see, Vance blew the tunnel. He wanted everybody to think

was his last job. He should be... Yeah, he should be flying over Rio right about

now. Didn't I always tell you not to work with killers?

You see what happened?

You met him.

He took us to dinner. He was a nice -looking guy.

Well, maybe you can point him out in the mud book for us. Hey, don't forget your

jail bag, baby. I put in some clean underwear and a roller coaster. I love

If

it's

possible, we always try to keep Terry out of Parker Center. You know that

disinfectant they use?

His skin breaks out.

Oh, well, monitor that.

No, I will not stop by the pharmacy and pick up soap.

No, no, I'm going to be at my sister's.

You really can't.

I'll bet my last nickel it was that damn Vance again.

And no, we're not even.

I saw him coming a mile away.

Come on.

Mrs. Smokey, don't worry about it. Hunter's going to be there. He'll be

hear everything.

Right. Okay, look, I'll have Terry call you at your pictures department as soon

as possible.

You guys got better pictures than me. This one's got to be at least ten years

old. You're supposed to be looking for pictures of Vance. Not here.

I told you, he's never been inside.

Okay, Terry, it's all set.

All you gotta do is just let him talk.

I want to hear it's Harvey Falk's money, Third National Bank, all in the same

room. And this is the room where the freeway sprang were confessed.

Uh, but it's in use right now.

Uh, why hasn't he been booked?

He's looking at some photographs, then we're gonna book him.

Uh, can I ask you why?

Yeah.

all the squirts doing?

Uh, the little darlings are off in St. John's, please.

Commissioner's brother's a priest down there, and I got elected to give them a

tour. Don't bang on the machine, kid.

Kid, don't bang on the machine now. You all right, Charlie?

Uh, sure, I'm fine.

Listen, the feds got us a possible ID on, uh, Smokey's accomplice. Beth?

No, Wojciech.

Milos Wojciech.

He's a Czechoslovakian national.

Wanted on the continent for murder and a string of tunnel jobs just like these.

Well, just hang on now. Lunch is at the morgue. The morgue? That's terrific.

You take these kids to the morgue for lunch.

Yeah, they got a great cafeteria there.

Got that bone chicken teriyaki?

Don't spoil your lunches, kids.

Kids, so why haven't we, uh, booked teriyaki?

It will be a bit more, Mr. Buck.

Harold, if you can't get it for under $100 ,000, It's not going to hang on my

wall. It's a rare master, Mr. Faulkner. It's only a bunch of damn flowers on a

table. Well, the rare flowers. All right, 100 -year -old flowers.

Offer them 90.

I want an answer by 6 o 'clock London time.

As you wish, Mr. Faulkner. Thank you, Harold.

You look too serious, Getz.

Some unsettling news on Mr.

Smokey.

What's he done now?

Five minutes after we had his line interdicted, he made arrangements with

middleman.

Interdicted? Uh, we placed a surveillance device on Mr. Smokey's

It appears the middleman was successful in arranging a tete -a -tete between Mr.

Smokey and a Sergeant Hunter.

What cop would have anything to do with Smokey? Our sources tell us Sergeant

Hunter's a bit of an overachiever.

And Smokey is a little bughead who's gonna try to play both ends.

Go back to his place.

An interdictive ass until he talks.

The operative word is reasonable.

Us with you.

better once you've made a clean breast of it. Ow!

I told you.

I don't know how to fight.

Shut up.

As far as Hunter was concerned, I was just jerking him around to buy some

Please. Please!

Don't! Please tell Mr. Falk I didn't know Third National was his!

Oh, we're very disappointed in you, Terry.

in the kitchen, Terry.

Come on, you little... Frost free. Very impressive.

And I guess this is the meat keeper.

Ow!

I'll get back up.

Terry!

Are you all right?

Yeah, just bent a finger. And you must be Sergeant Hunter? Yeah, that's right.

You one of the first charges?

You know, a home accident has claimed more lives than our nation's highways.

Think about it. Sergeant, it's broken, and I'm not surprised. You know, these

840 models, they've been around since the French Connection. I guess the mayor

wasn't kidding when he said we needed new taxes. Yeah, I want you to take a

hike. Let's go. Move.

You're supposed to be settling the debt between us.

And you let Fox College boys bust up my machine. I don't care about your

machine.

You know, I was 21 before I stayed in a nice motel.

It was real hot.

And they had this big ice maker down the hall. And you could take all you

wanted. And right then I knew, someday, I'd have my own.

I hate General Holmes.

They always prop up the body so the stiff looks like he's on some ride at

Disneyland.

Hey, haven't we arrested half the people in here?

Yeah. I think crime brings people together.

Look at him. Look at him.

See what I'm talking about?

He looks like he's just been strapped in for the log ride.

Hey, hey, look.

Look, there's me over there. Why don't you go over and talk to her? Maybe she

needs a little TLC or something. Well, maybe what she needs is to have her head

examined.

Look at this coffin.

Walnut.

With the inlay.

And exactly how much does this blanket of roses cost, anyway?

Two hundred, but not out of your pocket, Mr. So -Long -Murray -Can -I -Have

-Your -Tools.

Look who sent it.

Solly.

Our bail bondsman.

20 years.

How did he get roughed up?

Two of Falk's men.

I'm very sorry about that.

Yeah, you know, we're still trying to figure out... Oh, the throbbing.

Sorry,

I just blacked out there for a second.

Are you okay, baby? Yeah, I'm okay.

And what about this Cadillac he got Murray parked in here, huh?

That probably cost a small fortune, didn't it? Do you think I'd go cheap on

brother -in -law's funeral?

He's dead.

We could bury him in the refrigerator box. We can't because you'll be in it.

Why don't we go to the back of the chapel? Maybe he needs a cry or

Good idea.

Yeah, Hunter, it's not her fault.

Ever since we were married, I've done nothing but spoil that woman.

Mimi, you have to understand, Terry's under a lot of pressure.

Do I look like I'm on a vacation?

I'm sorry. It's just that living with Terry is crazy.

He always says the next job's going to be the big one.

And it never is.

Yeah, well, maybe if he went straight, your life could be a little easier.

Don't you think I know that?

No, Terry thinks he's Al Capone.

You know the only time he ever pulled off a good job?

He ripped off a coin shop.

You know what that idiot did?

He hid 30 grand worth of Morgan silver dollars in a barbecue pit.

A week and five T -bones later, we had a river of metal running down the patio.

Mimi, you know, you might be able to help us out here.

You and Terry had had dinner with Vance. Do you remember anything that he said

that might be able to help us to find him?

I don't know. It's the usual meet -the -family kind of thing.

The guys who hire Terry usually spring for dinner once. They want to get a look

at me so they'll know who to blow away in case Terry crosses them.

Makes sense.

Won't like any business.

Anyway, Vance took us to a sizzler on an all -you -can -eat night, and Terry and

Murray were having bets who could eat the most shrimps.

Terry was cheating, and... Hey, wait a minute.

There was something.

Vance was complaining about the sweep hand on his watch not working. Yeah.

Yeah, it was a fancy job.

A hurd. A hurd.

A hurd.

A hoyer?

Yeah.

Seven dials.

The guy was from out of town, so I told him about a little shop on Reseda

Boulevard. Handles those imports.

I have Vance's address.

So do O 'Hara and Getz.

They were here a half hour ago.

I wonder who told them.

Good work.

Let's bring it over to Vance's.

Everybody in place?

All set in the alley behind the building.

Good, I'm going in.

I'll stay here with your buddy. Right.

Two men on the poolside.

Cover the waterfront entrance and the fire doors.

Jerry, what do you got down there?

Once they repelled down the building, the suspects disappeared.

The coroner said they put a round in advance.

They had a one -way ticket to Aruba I paid for.

You sure didn't put a lot of effort into making his house a home. I'd bag more

evidence out of a phone booth.

What do you have?

You know, I found this behind a television set in the living room.

You think it's hot?

Well, I don't know. I think we'll let the lab boys tell us that.

You still gonna go see Stewart? Yep. Good. Why don't you get a list of the

of directors for Third National Bank? We should do a back check on all those

people over there. Okay, no problem.

Uh, you know, I think we ought to book this evidence and get out of here. I

that Charlie is very irritated that we haven't booked Terry.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, let's get out of here.

I don't know. I wonder if we'll ever hang Harvey Falk for Third National.

With anything, for that matter. I mean, the man has his own personal parking

space next to the grand jury. He sidesteps every indictment.

Let us worry about the bank directors, all right? We might be able to find a

wrinkle. Maybe. But Third National is a hell of an institution.

Secure as the rock of Gibraltar.

No energy investments or foreign loans.

In fact, I bank there.

Are you serious?

Why not? They've got great customer service, and you should see the

they give away at Christmas. A little Norman Rockwell. Wait a minute.

a little confused here are you keeping an eye on third national or doing their

commercials oh wait a minute if you can prove focus behind third national we'll

be on him faster than you can say securities exchange commission but then

have to buy your own calendars so what do you think black china tea

i'd say english breakfast you picked up on that huh well i've done my homework

somebody found a bag full of this stuff bank hasn't claimed it yet From a

professional point of view, how big a bag?

Oh, about $200 ,000 in tens of twice.

You know, rubbing it with tea bags is still the best way to age paper.

Strictly don't take.

No chemicals.

Smell goes away once you pass it. Quality?

Oh, first class.

Nice place.

No sloppy photo offset.

You think these bills would pass through a currency counter?

No sweat.

More professional curiosity.

Where'd you find him?

I think it was Third National Bank.

Not Harvey Falk's bank.

I got a bid in for their Christmas calendars. Big order.

50 ,000 pieces.

You can put a good word in for me. That's a lot of calendars for one bank,

it? Harvey's got two.

Third National and Buengas Riff.

But he's a tightwad.

So you tell him for me I never paid my bid.

Okay?

Okay. Okay, thanks.

It's short.

I, uh, got the same thing, sir. Short how much?

$10 ,350.

You said you got every bill.

Well, I believe we said that we took every bill, i .e., every bag that we

find, sir.

Now, a number of scenarios come to mind here.

Uh, Vance, me, Wojciech, could have stashed the money somewhere else other

his condo. Oh, yeah, right, he could have. If you two are an example of what

universities are turning out, our country is doomed.

I'll give you a scenario.

How about somebody gets crammed into someplace small and heavy and then gets

dropped some other place really deep?

That was on my list.

Yeah. Go through it all.

And then do it again.

Because if the cops find any of our counterfeit, we, i .e.,

you, will have flushed. A million -dollar scam down the toilet!

Hi, Jerry.

Hey, Hunter.

Great to see you.

It's a real fiesta here. Uh -huh. Everything a guy can want. Yeah.

Except for one thing. Unlock the loop. Yeah.

Catching up on your greens, are you?

How did you know about this?

Yeah. I didn't even tell Mimi about this. Yeah, well, you had 50 of them in

refrigerator. How'd you fool her all this time?

She's used to my quirks. Yeah.

Well, there it is.

Don't get married to it. It's not yours.

Yes, it is.

I deserve it.

It's fake.

It's as real as any money I'll ever have. It's counterfeit, Terry.

You know, I was wondering, lying here knocking back the champagne.

What's Hunter's angle?

He's got Vance.

He can figure out who's got the swag.

Why am I still on the loose, relatively speaking?

What's he got in mind?

Now it comes to me.

This is Falk's funny money.

What is that?

Raspberry Slurpee, or whatever it was they were fighting with in here. Is this

the Wojciech info?

Yeah, from the police department in Prague.

Confirmation they know that we killed Wojciech.

They suggest we cremate him. Of course, they don't give me a release notice.

I'll be dealing with that for weeks.

You know how to clean this stuff?

Lemon juice is good, I think. Or turpentine. I can call my mom and ask.

Yeah. Six European murders and one here, and now he's just a bad memory.

I think we ought to let Burglary chase down the money.

Hey, Hunter, you did give Burglary Smokey, didn't you?

Well, Charlie, what I've done is... Captain, did you know that in the last

Third National recycled more than $18 million in used cash with the Federal

Reserve? Yeah, you see, a Falk turns over counterfeit money to the federal

government. They shred or burn it, and then they return the real money to him.

Pretty good scam, huh?

Yeah, and the only way we even found out is that this Czech safecracker has more

guts and brains picked on the wrong vault.

Is the SEC working on this?

They banked there, Charlie. They can't even nail the guy.

You guys turn anything on this third national job?

I don't think so.

Listen, Falk is our primary suspect.

We're still going to have to connect him to all that missing bank loot. Who

knows where he stashed it? Well, we know where it is.

At least we think we do.

Yeah. You see, we think Falk's got it in one of his other banks, Cahuenga

Thrift. Nice big ball.

Wait a minute now.

If the SEC isn't playing, who's going to let us in there while Falk's still

holding the bank?

So wait, you haven't booked Terry Smalke because... He's going to help us pull

another bank job.

You have mind -bogglingly bad luck.

Just when I want a dog to kick, here you are.

And you got some money missing.

I'd like to help you get it back.

You're a very generous man.

You know, I was, uh...

Admiring your handiwork.

I figured out how you were scamming the Federal Reserve with T -bills.

Don't make bad jokes.

In fact, don't say or do anything.

Stand over there.

Yes, sir.

That's one of ours from the 3rd National Lot.

When we last saw you, you were running a wire for Hunter.

You didn't give him this?

No.

I got immunity for steering him to Vance.

Why give him a bonus?

That's that.

And this is this.

How much was this supposed to cost me?

One million, ten thousand.

It's not a bad deal.

You can afford it.

And you can't afford to have me give any of those to Hunter. What's to keep me

from planting you right now?

You know, a sealed envelope to my attorney in the event of my death.

Send to the police.

Like that.

Okay. I'm not putting the screws to you. You said okay.

Sir, it's, uh, after hours, we don't have the amount on hand.

It'll take a bit to set things up.

I got time.

I'll rate the reliability of this man on the low to nil side.

A million dollars was Hunter's idea.

The ten grand he couldn't resist.

I'm going to close out our operation at Coinga Trust.

Let the lawyers take the flank.

But we have to do it fast before Hunter knows what's hit him.

You college boys are bad enough, but guys like Smokey shouldn't work in our

business.

Typical traffic and parking density for this hour, sir. No suspicious vans or

trucks. No groups of men loitering.

I don't think there's any organized surveillance, sir. I advise you to

as soon as possible.

We have a two -minute window.

I'm happy right here.

Evening, Mr. Fox. Mr. Richards.

Nice to see you.

It's good of you to come down so late, Richards. I appreciate it. No problem.

I realize I'm the only one who can override the time lock.

Gentlemen, help Mr. Richards with the door.

Don't you love the smell of money?

Stay over there.

A minute, then, sir.

If you like, you can just give me my money now, and I'll be going.

It's still your end of the deal.

Listen, it's getting a little warm in here. If you don't mind, I'd like to go

outside and wait in the hallway.

I always get kind of claustrophobic in places like this.

Take him with you. I'll get the funny money. Let's go. Come on.

Hold it, folks, right there, please.

Get your dog off me. Get your dog off me.

Get out of here.

Or you'll take your snitch home in a body bag.

Come on, honey.

You can't do this to me. Hey, you can't do this to Mimi. She can't be left

alone. She's got a lot of good years left.

Quit whining. I'll go out like a man.

Good morning, honey.

I will kill him. Oh, come on, come on, come on, come on. You own me. You own

And let the weasel go. It's okay. You can always get him later.

Let him go.

You can't do that, Terry. It's against department policy. I'll get in trouble.

Trouble? What are you talking about?

What are you talking about?

Quit moving around.

Department policy?

This guy's getting ready to blow my brains out. And you're talking

policy? Listen. Ow.

Give me that.

Cuff him.

Dog You

make

me second Well,

give me a second I got my shoe

That looks smooth. You okay?

Hey, no problem.

You were great in there, Jerry. Appreciate it. Well, great. Thanks for

right in there.

After you.
