Tonight on Hunter, there's been a murder
here. Not just any murder.

A police officer has been killed. You
thought you were going to bust me,

you? I'm going to put you away, Tony.

Find out who did that to him. I promise
you we will.

Hey, you got some stones picking up
Salvatore Scalati like he's some street

punk. You give me the name of the slime
that hit Michael.

And if this mysterious buyer of yours
burns us? I'd kill him.

He was murdered.

Why don't you ask Tony about it?

where is he what are you gonna do he's
our son

Nick, what's going down?

We're moving tonight.

Who's Nick?

A friend of mine.

Why tonight? I thought we were going on
Thursday.

Yeah, well, you've got to be versatile
in this line of work.

There's got to be security cameras
around this plane.

Not our problem.

Here he comes.

All the burglar alarms are neutralized.

What time you got?

About that time.

Vinny. Derek. How you doing? All right.

It looks quiet. Yeah, yeah. She's all
yours, man.

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

I got a date.

Take it easy.

Lucinda.

These are the ones.

Come on.

Now tell me you eat this good since you
left home, huh? It's great, Ma.

If it's so good, why wait three weeks?
People are coming to see us.

Ma, it hasn't been three weeks.

Yeah, we haven't seen you that much
around the office, either.

Yeah, well, there's this girl.

Mm, there's always some girl.

You better pay more attention to
business.

You know, Bernie Lucchese's trial is
next week. You're gonna be short a man.

Yeah, which trial's that?

The one for racketeering or the
extortion rap?

I'll get the dessert.

You watch your mouth around your mother.

I want you in the office next week.
We're going to be moving a lot of

merchandise. There might be trouble.

Sure.

Hey, I'll get that.

Expecting a call.

Oh? You giving out my number to your
girlfriends now?

Yeah, it's me.

It's done.

Now we have to finish up.

I'll be right there.

I've got to go.

What, before dessert?

Come on, your mother went to a lot of
trouble.

Sorry, Mom.

Got a date.

One of these days I'll bring her around.
You're going to love her.

See you at the office.

Hey, he's young, healthy. He's got other
things on his mind.

But what he has on his mind, he should
see a priest.

Benny.

Benny, we did it.

Look, Tony, we got to talk about this
thing, man. Benny, it's got to be done.

Look, we got a $20 million payoff. Yeah,
I know, but... Benny, we got no choice.

What the hell's going on here? You know
what's going on.

Phew.

Should old acquaintance be forgot?

You snitched me off.

You thought you were going to bust me,
didn't you?

I am.

I'm going to put you away, Tony.

Bill, Mike.

Thanks.

Nothing like a double homicide to start
the morning, huh?

No kidding.

Neighbors found these bodies about 7 a
.m. this morning.

Shot someplace else, dumped here.

This one was shot through and through,
back to front. He probably tried to run.

Any ID on these guys?

Nothing at all.

I know this guy.

He's a cop.

Yes? I'm Sergeant Hunter, LAPD.

I'm Michael Vance. Come in. Thank you.

Claire, this is Sergeant Hunter.

Hello, Miss Fossey.

I was a friend of Michael's.

Yes.

You taught him at the academy.

That's right.

I remember he talked an awful lot about
you.

I'm very sorry.

I can't believe how much I miss him
already.

I know.

Please.

Find out who did this to him.

I promise you we will.

Michael Frazee was working undercover on
a scheme to rip this place off.

But the heist wasn't supposed to go down
until tomorrow.

We think what happened was when they
decided to move last night, Michael

have time to get away and contact us.
Yeah, I know, but we've got to find out

who blew Michael's cover.

We think it was Ricky Donald, the dead
guy you found with Michael.

Ricky Donald. He's the guy that duped
Michael into the heist, right? That's

right. We busted Donald three months ago
for ripping off a bunch of stereo

equipment. In exchange for a lesser
charge, He gave us some information we

wanted about a heist, and he made the
intros for Mike.

These advanced computer chips, just how
much money are they actually worth?

Millions, especially to the Eastern
Bloc. If the Communists could get their

hands on these, they'd be years ahead on
their current levels in weapons

guidance systems. Someone was approached
by a hotshot ex -mercenary named Nick

Ellis.

He'd been shopping around town looking
for a few good men, obviously to rob

place.

But this is too big an operation for a
freelancer like him to have pulled off

alone. He needed help.

As far as we know, Michael Prosser's key
contact was Nick Ellison.

What we need to do is find out all the
information we possibly can on an ex

-mercenary by the name of Nick Ellison.

Got it.

We raided Ellison's apartment this
morning.

He's gone.

That's great.

Mr. Peterson, I need to see all your
personnel files as soon as I can.

Of course, but I must tell you, we very
carefully check the backgrounds of

everyone working here.

No one has any kind of record.

I know that. I'll still need to see
them.

And I'd like to speak with Mr. Gore
again if I can.

Of course.

Benny?

How you doing, Benny? Good.

Listen, you said that you were working
the security monitors late last night,

right? Yeah.

You know, I don't get it.

Nothing showed up on the monitors. I
didn't know anything was wrong until I

in here this morning and went to turn
off the alarms.

I understand you work a lot of overtime.
Is that right?

Whenever I can.

You know how it is.

Are you working overtime last night?

No, that's my regular shift.

What are the hours on your regular
shift?

2 to 10 p .m., five days a week.

Five days a week.

Okay.

We'll probably need to talk to you a
little bit later on if that's okay with

you. Sure. No problem. Appreciate it,
Benny. Thanks.

Yeah. Thanks.

I'll find the ones who did this.

I'll find them.

Cautious, aren't you?

You got me alive.

Benny, the main man. Yeah, right.

You know, if things go sour, your main
man is the first one that the cops are

gonna haul in. Your pal worries too
much. Hey, look, why don't you just shut

all right? You're not the one who's on
the hook here.

Tony?

The cops, they question me. I'm worried.
Benny, look, do they know about the

tape? No. All right, then relax.

All right. Sides.

You're going to feel a lot better when
you're counting your money in that Swiss

bank account.

We're all going to feel better.

So what's the deal with your contact?

He gave him that list he wanted.

He said it'd take another day to make up
the false manifest.

The ship sails on Thursday.

Thursday?

That's two days.

When the ship clears port, the money is
wired to our account.

And if this mysterious buyer of yours
burns us?

I kill him.

But he won't.

You see, we have a relationship based on
mutual respect and

cold cash.

You know, it occurs to me, Nick, you and
your buyer friend could cut me out of

this deal.

You're getting paranoid.

You screwed up once, pal.

If I hadn't made the count that you led
into our deal...

We'd all be talking to our lawyers
through plexiglass right now.

Hey, guys, any luck?

Nothing yet.

Michael was a damn good cop. He must
have over 1 ,500 busts in the last 10

years. Can't we narrow it down a little
bit?

We already have.

Computer kicked out about 200 perps with
the same M .O. as this job.

Did Interpol have anything on this Nick
Ellison character?

Yeah, the guy is wanted in three
different countries for murder and

I got something even better on the guy.
One of his known accomplices is an ex

-mercenary, Robert Walters.

Expert B &E man, specializing in burglar
alarms. He was living in L .A., but

he's moved.

Another mercenary.

Must be a place where these guys hang
out. Yeah, there are three different

here in town.

Three? Sounds like they have a nice
social scene going.

You could say that.

I'm going to go check it out.

Oh, wait a minute. Now, don't you think
I should go with him?

I think I can handle it.

Wait a second. There's a lot of tough,
rough customers in those bars.

Hey, Pop, what brings you around?

You leave your office without telling
anybody where you've been?

I was playing some racquetball.

Racquetball is for accountants.

Tony, come here.

Sit down, will you?

Tony, you know I love you, don't you?

Yeah, sure.

What's going on?

Oh, just listen.

There's something I want to tell you.

See, a long time ago, your mother and I,
we had a problem.

They told her she couldn't have any
children.

Well, I didn't blame her. I tried not
to.

But there was this girl, Claire.

She was young, pretty, impressionable,
and she fell in love with me.

Hey, I cared very much for her, too.

She became the mother of my first son.

I have a brother?

Why didn't you tell me?

Listen to me.

By the time you came along, it was like
a miracle.

I mean, it was the greatest thing in the
world that could have happened to me.

But you got to understand, I never
thought that I was going to have a son.

Anyway, during those years, I'd go down
to Claire's place with my old trunk of

my car packed with toys for Michael.

See, it was like this secret place that
only I knew about.

I mean, I wasn't Sal Scarlatti. I wasn't
this mob figure that was in the papers

and everything. All I was was the father
of this little kid.

Does Mom know?

No, I never told her.

Anyway, when Michael was about three
years old, you were born, and Claire and

broke it off.

She didn't want me to visit him anymore.

And she told him his father had died.

But I always loved him. Not like I love
you, but I love both my sons.

Now, one of them is dead.

That cop, Michael Prossy, was your
brother.

Tony, I want you to find the man who did
this and bring him to me.

I want you to help me avenge your
brother's death.

Why don't I think you're here for a
drink?

Because you're terribly bright and you
don't like wasting time.

See neither one of these two men in
here?

McEllis and Bob Walters. Last I heard,
they were in Honduras.

Yo! Anybody heard from Ellison or
Walters lately?

Walters?

Since when did you start drinking so
early?

Since now.

He's told you, hasn't he?

About the other one.

About your half -brother.

You know?

Almost from the beginning.

That boy's dead. Why'd he tell you now?

He wants me to find his killer.

What did you tell him?

There's something wrong, isn't there?

Tell me what's wrong, Tony.

There was this guy.

He came to me with a proposition.

It was too good to resist.

Pop didn't know about it, Ida.

Ida thought it was un -American.

As Michael... He was an undercover cop.

He infiltrated my operation.

What are you saying?

I killed him, Ma.

Your father must never know this.

He's going to find out sooner or later.
If he does, our family will be

destroyed.

No one must ever be allowed to tell him.

Ever.

You do what you have to do.

We have the three bar customers
downstairs on obstruction and assault,

are giving us vilts. Yeah. Well, these
mercenaries have their own cockamamie

code of honor whenever it suits their
purposes.

Captain? What?

If you were a mercenary, how would you
find work?

What? By taking an ad in a magazine such
as this one.

I found a stack of these at the bar.
This magazine happens to be six months

Read that ad right there.

No risk, too great. Small arms expert.

Electronic skill.

Contact R.

Walters, post office, Buckler.

Contact the post office right now. Find
out where they built this address. We've

already done it.

Open up, police.

Preliminary report shows that it was one
shot, point -blank range, small

-caliber weapon.

Nobody heard the shots, no sign of
forced injury.

Had to know the man who killed him.

Yeah, it was a little double -cross to
me, huh?

Sergeant Hunter.

Miss Frosty, hi, how are you? Claire
Frosty, Sergeant McCall. Hello. Hi. I

here to pick up Michael's personal
effects from his desk, and I want to

the funeral arrangement.

I thought I'd stop by and see you.

Is it a bad time?

No, it's all right.

I was wondering, did you have any leads?

I'm talking like a detective.

I must have picked it up from Michael.

Well, we did have a lead.

We were about to interrogate him, but he
was murdered.

Okay, Sergeant, what the hell's so
important?

Have a seat, Mr. Scarlatti.

You know a Robert Walters?

Never heard of him.

Robert Walters was a key suspect in the
murder of Officer Michael Prossy.

What's that got to do with me?

Walters was murdered last night.

So?

We think you put the hit out on him.

Now, why would I do a thing like that?

because Michael Pross is your son.

Claire told us.

She had no right to tell you about
Michael. She had every right to tell us.

There's been a murder here, not just any
murder.

A police officer has been killed. We
take that very personally around here.

I know you haven't been involved with
your son's life in the last 25 years.

probably think this is just business.

What do you know about it, cop?

Do you know how I used to sit outside
his school and wait for him every day

to get a look at him?

I went to every one of his high school
football games.

He never even knew I was there, but I
was there.

And I'll tell you something funny.

When I found out he was going to become
a cop, I was proud of him.

Yeah. I said, the kid's got guts.

I take this personally.

We're not going to let you obstruct
justice, Mr. Scalati.

You want justice?

You give me the name of the slime that
hit Michael, I'll show you justice.

Tony Scarlatti just arrived with their
attorney.

You want to try to hold him?

No.

Are you all right? Yeah.

Hey, you got some stones picking up
Salvatore Scalati like he's some street

punk. Hey, that's enough. Come on. Come
on!

Look, will you talk to me? What's the
matter?

Who's this Robert Walters? Did you kill
him?

Yeah. You were supposed to bring him to
me. Look, I had no choice. He pulled a

gun. And you don't tell me? What is
this? I was going to, but when I got

When I got here, Phil told me that they
picked you up.

Why was Michael killed?

This is Walters.

And another guy, Nick Ellison.

They were running an operation.

They were selling secret computer stuff
to the communists, and I guess Mike was

working on the inside, and they made
him.

I think maybe this is a bad idea.

I don't want you to get hurt.

I'll put somebody else on it. No, no.

I'll finish it.

You.

You're a good boy, Tony.

Nearly gave me a seizure.

Just keep that thing away. You're going
to hurt yourself.

Yeah, you're right.

You want some french fries or something?

No, I don't think.

Look at me.

I'm trembling.

And this gig, I don't know about this
thing, Tony. I mean, it's turning me

a little old lady.

What's that for?

But I'm your main man.

Mr. Peterson was right. We checked out
all the lodge sale employees to see if

anybody had a record.

Everybody was clean.

Except Mr. Gore here. He had a juvenile
record.

Any convictions?

No. Benny and a friend were robbing
stereo television outlets when one of

owners dropped all the charges against
him. It seems that he found out who

Benny's friend was, Tony Sperlotti.

Wow, this is very interesting.

So we did a checkup on Tony's arrest
record.

Look what we found.

Michael arrested Tony Scarlatti five
years ago for a conspiracy to commit

robbery and extortion.

Yeah, but the case was thrown out due to
a technicality.

So Michael busted his own brother and
they didn't even know it?

Michael's cover was blown when Tony
recognized him. And Tony killed him.

You got nothing I want to hear, Hunter.

Where's Tony, Sal?

Tony? What do you want with him?

You had your peg doll wrong. I didn't
think the Scarlatti family would sell

their own country.

What the hell are you talking about?

Tony and the next mercenary by the name
of Nick Ellison had a deal to sell

Logitech technology to the Warsaw Pact.

I don't believe it.

You know of Benny Gore?

Yeah, he's a punk kid. What about him?

Well, Benny was the inside man on the
Lodgett fell heist.

So?

Benny was found murdered last night.

Well, you think I ordered it?

No, I don't think you did, Sal.

You asked me to bring you the name of
the scum who killed Michael.

Why don't you ask Tony about it?

What the hell's that supposed to mean?

Hunter!

Do you know where Tony is?

What's all?

Where is he?

Why are you looking for Tony? What's he
done?

Where is he? I want to find him. You
can't blame Tony for what happened.

Blame him for what?

Sal, he didn't know Michael Prossy was
your son.

You know about Michael?

I've kept it in here for 32 years, but
not now. Not anymore.

It isn't Tony's fault.

He killed Michael.

Where is he?

Where is he? What are you going to do?

So you're telling me that Tony Scarlatti
was running an operation without his

old man even knowing it? He had never
had a son killed, John. Yeah, well, that

didn't stop Tony from killing his half
-brother.

Well, maybe he didn't know it.

Let's bring him in.

Captain, we don't have enough to hold
him on.

He's right.

All the evidence we have is
circumstantial. What we'd like to do is

on him and hope the guy leads us to the
computer chips and Ellison.

So do it.

Good.

Yeah. Nick, is everything set?

Byron will be there at 6 o 'clock
tonight.

Have you heard from Bob yet?

No.

Cops probably got him.

They just picked up Benny.

You think Benny'd snitch?

I don't know.

Look, meet me there right away.

We can still make this thing work.

We've just got to move the merchandise
to another location.

I'll be there.

You go into business behind my back. You
make a deal with communists.

And you kill your own brother.

I didn't know.

If you hadn't have gone against me, none
of this would have happened. I'm sorry.

It's too late for sorry.

Did he say anything before he died?

Your brother, did he say anything?

Did he? Yes.

He said he was going to take me down.

How could you do this to me?

Look what you did to me.

All these years you never told me.

It was your lie.

It was your secret.

Do you think I would have killed my own
brother?

It was your lie that killed him, not me.

You!

You!

You have to walk away from this clean.

You hear me?

Clean.

I have left.

Ellison's just entered the building.

Gotcha, Rick.

What's he doing here?

I run this business.

Or didn't you know?

What's with the heavy hardware?

Ask your son.

I'm just the cautious type.

So am I.

Give him the gun.

Tony!

Shots fired. We're going in. Right.

We'll back you up on the north side of
the building.

Scarlatti! Drop the gun! Police!

You all right?

Yeah.

We gotta get out of here.

We'll never make it, Tony. We've gotta
try.

Hey, kid, it's over.

Over?

I killed a cop. They're gonna put me
away for life.

Tony!

Drop it.

Drop the gun.

Can't help thinking about Sal Scarlatti.

You would think he would show up at his
son's funeral.

I think it was just too painful for him.
Excuse me.

You all right?

Yes.

It was a beautiful service.

Looking at all of you here makes me feel
very close to Michael.

And I would like to thank each and every
one of you for being here and

supporting me in this difficult time.

Thank you.

Yes?

What's wrong?

I just got a call on the radio.

It's about Sal Scarlatti.

While we were at the funeral, he went
home, went into his study, and killed

himself.
