Good morning.

Oh, you,

uh... We're, uh... We're, uh... David
and Janet are seeing each other again.

Yay!

Yay!

Would you say something?

I've instructed my client to communicate
only through me.

Janet and I tried, but we decided that
it's just hopeless.

What's hopeless?

Separation's over.

We're getting a divorce.

There's a magic in the early morning we
found.

When the sunrise smiles on everything
around.

It's a portrait of the happiness that we
feel and

always will.

Oh, it is enough to fill our lives with.

If we're ever puzzled by the changing

time There's a plate of homemade

wishes on the kitchen

To fill our lives with love.

It's springtime.

This could be fun. I mean, fresh air,
good exercise, get to commune with

Nature. Yeah, well, if it's such a great
experience, I sure hate to deprive

Nicholas of having it. Don't worry,
he'll get his turn.

Dig. See, I'd really love to have you,
but... I got this week back. You know

what you've got, Jeremy? A lot of weak
excuses.

Besides, you're going to thank me this
summer when you have fresh vegetables.

Yeah, but I hate vegetables.

Well, then dig and don't thank me. Abby,
what are you doing there? You can't dig

there. No, Tom, it's all right. No, it
isn't. Tom, come on, let's just talk

about it, okay?

I'm just going to do it this weekend.
You know how I love to garden. I know

you love to garden, but I was afraid you
weren't going to get around to it. And

besides, this will be real good for
Jeremy. Oh, he'll botch it up and I'll

to do it all over again. No, he's not
going to botch it up. Would you just go

work, okay?

Here, I could quit. It's okay, Jeremy.

Yeah, but he really seems upset. Jeremy,
dig.

Easy.

Normal, dry.

Yeah.

Johnny, I didn't know you shopped here.
Janet, what a nice surprise. Hi.

Hi. Since when did you get this shampoo
compulsion? Oh, right.

Since your sister's in Los Angeles.

I always said the best thing about being
a Bradford was having clean hair and

different opinions.

Hey, I really miss you. How you been?

Busy. Office is very busy.

I wasn't asking about the office.

How are you?

I'm not sure. Being separated is kind of
strange.

I mean, I'm married to David, but I'm
not.

I'm single.

But I'm not.

I want a date, but I don't. You know
what I mean?

I do, but I don't.

Well, then you're not seeing anyone.

Actually, I have a blind date tonight.
Oh.

Taking me to the restaurant.

Oh, the restaurant. I've heard of that.
It's supposed to be great. You'll

probably have fun.

TV dinners. Yeah.

So, how's David?

You know, I was the one that used to ask
you that.

You haven't seen him?

Not for weeks.

So how is he?

You know David. He's not big on
confiding in anyone.

Yeah, I know.

Listen, Joanie, I have to get back to
the office. Would you like to have lunch

next week?

Oh, I'd love to. I'll give you a call.
Great.

And say hello to everyone for me.

David, too?

I wouldn't want to make him feel
uncomfortable.

Everyone else, then. Thanks.

Bye.

I said sinner.

Okay, names?

Stasek. Hobbs.

Bradford.

Did you say Bradford?

Yes, coach.

Okay, Bradford, you and Stasek here are
going to jump ball.

Does he get a chair?

Knock it off, Stasek.

Okay, let's do it.

Bradford, I have a suggestion for you.
What, coach?

Uh, what we really need are some great
guards, man.

We do?

Yeah, you want to try out for guard?

Well, I guess if that's what we need.

Thanks a lot, Bradford. I really
appreciate it.

Hobbs, get over here and jump.

Woo!

Cool!

Um, no, no, no, wait.

Yours is, I got it, uh, it's the built
-in conditioner, right?

Clothes. No, I'm the extra body.

You seem to be doing all right with the
one you asked.

Who does write your material?

Oh, Nance, you'll never guess who I saw
at the drugstore. Oh, it's Judge David.

You saw David? No, no, no, forget it,
Nance.

Uh, David, what are you doing here?

Well, I'm going to trim his hair. Yeah,
well, actually, I have to sit down

first, and then she has to get the
scissors, but that's the general idea.

Oh,

it's so good to see you.

I wish your hair grew faster so we'd get
to see you more often. Well, I could

have let it go another week, but Jerry
got me a blind date. Oh, a blind date?

Where are you taking her?

I don't know. Do you have any ideas?

Yeah, there's this new place that opened
up. Why don't you try it? It's called

The Restaurant.

Oh, no, David, that's a bad idea.

I think you'd be much better off staying
home.

Why?

Well, you look kind of tired.

Well, I am tired, but I promised The
Restaurant, huh?

No, you'd hate it, honest. It's very
expensive, stuffy, food's not very good.

I didn't know you'd been there.

Well, I haven't, but word travels fast.

Everybody hates it, really.

I think you'd be much happier if you
stayed home. Well, I was there, and I

it. If the place is that controversial,
at least my date and I will have

something to talk about.

I think I'll try it.

Wow wonder he didn't want me to dig here

Bradford

mr. Bradford This way, please

Thank you.

Would you like something from the bar?
Oh, Dana?

I have this drinking problem.

Drinking problem?

Yeah. I'm not allowed. I'm only 19.

Oh, no, thank you. Maybe later.

Bon appétit.

I'm sorry. I thought you knew.

No, Jerry, let that part out.

It's okay. Let's see what's good here.

Bradford. Tommy Bradford.

I graduated high school last June with a
Tommy Bradford.

Someone you know?

Yeah, just another friend of Tommy's.

All right, come on in. Thanks. We don't
have much time. The show's almost

started. Oh, okay.

Oh, hi, Coach.

Hey, well, look who's here.

I wondered today if you were a Bradford
Bradford. You two know each other? Your

little brother's trying out for the
youth league team. I'm coaching for my

project. Oh, how's he doing?

We have a great bunch of guys.

How do you feel? A little stiff?

A little.

Oh, that's okay. We'll work the kinks
out. See you Friday, bud.

See you, Coach.

Come on, Elizabeth.

Hey, I heard you had basketball track
today. How'd it go?

It was crowded.

Yeah? Lots of competition?

Yeah. I have a feeling it's going to get
better.

Lots better.

Okay.

Janet. Hi.

Hi.

My dear.

Well,

how you been?

Working hard? Yes, as usual.

And you? You look great.

Things are going well enough You want to
sit down for a

minute sure for a minute

Excuse me, but we seem to be in the same
predicament.

My date went to the ladies' room quite a
while ago, and I was wondering if you

could see if she's okay.

Her name is Janet Bradford.

Janet Bradford?

My date's name is David Bradford.

That's my date's husband.

Then he didn't really go to the men's
room.

Let's take a look.

Would you like a ride home?

Thanks.

I guess I need one.

If you could have seen the look on your
face when we found our dates missing.

I don't know how I'm going to explain it
to Jerry.

I know.

I'm going to make him explain why she
was only 19.

Well, she needed a father figure.

And Marie must have figured I needed a
grandfather figure.

This is fun.

Yeah, it is.

We should do it again sometime.

I'd like to, David.

Very much.

Hold on, I'm coming.

Why? Why?

Because it's morning and it's good.

Well, at least it's fair, but who says
fair morning?

Come on, David, can I come in a minute?

Not really.

Please, David, really, it's just for a
minute. I'm coming in.

Why don't you come in, Joanie?

David, I know why you're mad at me.

Mad? Angry, furious, displeased.

At you? No.

I know I should have warned you the
other day.

It's been on my conscience ever since.

Warned me about what?

About the restaurant.

Oh, you did warn me about the
restaurant. But not about the clientele.

Did you see her?

Was it really awkward?

Actually, it was awkward at first.

Janet! Good morning!

Oh, you,

uh... We're, uh... We're, uh... Oh!

David, I'm so glad I didn't warn you. So
are we. We've been together constantly

since Wednesday.

Yeah, I think we've seen more of each
other than before we separated.

Hey, David, admit I was right.

About what? It is a good morning.

Hey.

out there. How come your door was
locked? Oh, it wasn't. Nicholas just

chair up against it when he left.

Are you sure something's not going on in
here?

No, everything's real, real dead.

So, uh, next, tell me something. Um, how
eccentric is your father? What?

Oh, you mean since you came here?

I guess he's learned a lot about
eccentricity.

Yeah, well, at least we're friends. Now,
now, if I ever asked you something

about the Bradford family history, you'd
tell me, wouldn't you?

What do you want to know?

Well, when you were a little girl and
the Bradford clan used to gather and

for Sunday dinner, did anybody mention a
family skeleton?

No, no family skeletons.

Well, how about decapitation, a human
sacrifice?

Ew.

Jeremy, are you flipping out? Because if
you're flipping out, I feel sorry for

you. But if this is some kind of a joke,
it's not funny.

Oh, in other words, you're not talking.
Well, let me tell you something, Nance.

I'm going to keep trying. I'm going to
keep digging for more facts.

Jeremy?

You've been watching too much
television. No, I've been getting a lot

exercise, fresh air, and communing with
Mother Nature.

Okay, sure.

You still here?

Oh, God, stop it.

No, you bug off.

You're taking up space.

Yeah, but not much.

He gets a turn, doesn't he?

And that means less practice for the
real players.

You're just scared of competition.

Competition? You're kidding. The coach
won't even notice you.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

How you doing, Bradford?

Oh, pretty good.

Elizabeth said you saw Great River the
other night.

Yeah, I liked it.

Yeah, that's what she said. You liked
it?

Anything I can do for you, Bradford?

No, just wanted to make sure you liked
the movie, like Elizabeth said.

See you, Coach.

Yeah.

What was that all about?

Can't tell you. Just a few minutes.

anything, Dad. You have to promise me
something.

All right. On my honor, I will, um,
something.

No, Dad, I'm serious. I think it's very
important that when I tell you what I'm

going to tell you, you absolutely refuse
to overreact, okay? She's right, Dad.

You have to be real cool about this. And
you cannot read more into the facts

than the facts themselves warrant. Even
if it is fantastically exciting.

Elizabeth, you're not helping.

Well, no one is helping. As a matter of
fact, I'm starting to overreact to not

knowing what I can't overreact to. He's
got a point there, Joanie.

I think you better tell him.

Okay. But, Dad, you have to promise to
keep everything in proportion, remember?

David and Janet are seeing each other
again.

She spent the night at his apartment.

And they seem really happy together.

But we don't want to jump to any
conclusions, Dad.

Or make more out of it than it is.

I see.

Now, let me get this straight.

Seeing each other? Uh -huh.

In his apartment?

Our David and Janet?

Yes.

All right.

I think I understand the situation.

Great dinner.

Thank you.

I thought it was very sweet of you to
have it ready for me. I think it was

of me, too.

I was going to do it, David.

You were?

Uh -huh, really. I'll do it tomorrow
night.

Oh, no, you don't have to bother. I can
handle getting dinner for us now.

A couple of months of living alone can
make those housekeeping arguments we had

seem pretty ridiculous.

I'm not so sure they were so ridiculous.

You did have a point.

So did you.

Thank you.

Thank you?

Oh.

So I'll cook tomorrow.

No, you don't have to bother.

Maybe we should go out. My treat?

No. Dutch?

Why don't I just cook?

David?

Yes? Are we having an argument?

No, I was avoiding an argument. Oh,
good. So was I.

No argument. Right, no argument.

on for?

Coach Eason. You mean Rick?

Yeah. It's for Rick. I gather you
approve?

Yeah, I approve.

They say he's the best coach in the
league, you know.

Oh, well I'm glad for him. That's what
he wants to be when he gets his

coach at a high school.

You like him?

I'm going out on a second date.

Uh, Jeremy says people kiss on second
dates.

Jeremy never had a second date, so that
information is purely hypothetical.

Well, do you kiss Rick?

That information is purely confidential.

Yes.

Elizabeth.

What? I used to wonder who was my
favorite sister.

Joanie, Nancy, Susan, Mary, or you?

Nicholas, I don't think that's such a
good thing to wonder about.

Well, I do, and lately you've been
winning.

But it was dumb.

Well... I tried to keep you in the
conversation.

I know.

Both of them.

The one about pro football yardage and
the one about furniture polish.

So I don't work with a group of world
-class intellects. I never said you have

to.

But? But when I told them I was working
on a tort, two of the women asked for

the recipe.

Ha, ha, ha.

David.

I told him I didn't want to see him
anymore. He's such a bore.

He's not boring.

He's not.

Maybe not on the basketball court,
Nicholas, but you should try dating him

sometime. Okay, so he's boring, but you
don't have to make him mad. It's my

life. Well, it's mine, too.

Look, Nicholas, I can tell any guy I
want to get lost, and it's none of your

business. Oh, no. Well, if I don't make
that basketball team, it's all your

fault.

Did I tell you my father lost 40 pounds?

Yeah.

Oh, that's right. I did tell you that.

I think it's great.

That's right. You said you thought it
was great.

David? Yeah?

What do you want to talk about?

Anything you like.

No, you pick the subject.

There isn't anything.

Every time I want to say something, I
wonder whether it's going to set us off.

I start to mention your work, and that's
a touchy area.

I start to mention how much Sandra Sue
has grown, and that's a booby trap.

So what do I say?

I'm glad your father's on a diet.

Look, maybe we're just trying too hard.

We're trying.

And trying.

And trying.

But it doesn't work.

David.

I missed you so much.

There were times I was so lonely, I
thought I was cracking up.

I guess I wanted these months of
separation to work some kind of magic.

But nothing's changed.

Wow, I see you're at it again.

Yes, sir.

Frankly, Jeremy, I never thought that
you would be this enthusiastic about

gardening. Yeah, well, this house is
full of surprises.

Aren't you overdoing it? That's deep
enough.

Are you saying I can't dig deeper?

I just don't think it's necessary.

Well, it's necessary, Mr. Bradford, and
you can't stop me.

Why would I want to stop you?

I don't know. You want to tell me about
it?

Jeremy, maybe you're working too hard.

Maybe Nicholas should take over this job
for you. Oh, no way. I'm going to see

this thing through to the end and let
the chips fall where they may.

The chips?

Yes, sir, unless you care to make a
statement right now.

Yes, I would.

If you're going to dig out here in the
sun, wear a hat.

Hi, Dad. Hello, David.

Well, Dad, I have something to tell you.
No, no, you don't have to tell me. I

heard all about it. Now, I don't want to
seem forward, but if you and Janet are

free, we'd love to have you over for
dinner tonight.

Oh, I'm sorry, Dad.

Well, if you'd rather be alone, we
understand. We'll do it some other time.

There isn't going to be another time.

Well, I don't understand.

Janet and I tried, but we decided that
it's just hopeless.

What's hopeless?

Separation's over.

And we're getting it, big boy.

I wish you could have seen them together
in David's apartment that morning.

I was sure they were going to patch it
up.

Can't we do something?

Maybe if we told David how much Janet
means to us? That's a good idea. Oh,

hold on now. I know exactly how you all
feel. I've been brooding about it myself

all night.

But what can we do that we didn't try
the first time they got separated?

Well, there must be something we can do.

No, Tom's right. We've already applied
too much family pressure as it is.

Yeah, but divorce seems so final.

All we can do is to love them both very
much and stay out of it.

So how did Abby take it?

I didn't see her, but Dad was
disappointed.

Well, at least he's not acting like the
world ended.

No, and that's the way I want it.

We've caused enough ripples in
everyone's life. Let's make sure we do

simply and easily as possible. Yeah, I
agree.

We don't have to involve anyone else.
You're a lawyer. You can handle the

details. I don't think so.

Why not?

You know what they say about doctors to
treat themselves.

Oh, they have rules for patients.

Exactly. If I were your lawyer, the
first thing I would do is recommend that

see an outside and partial attorney.

You want us both to have lawyers?

It's the only wise and ethical thing to
do.

Okay, I guess you're right.

But let's make it simple and friendly,
all right? How difficult could it get?

You keep the yacht, and I'll take the
castle and stay.

Oh, in the private jet?

Oh, I'm so tired of it, let's donate it
to charity. Good idea. The ashtrays are

full.

And you left.

Yeah.

I hit the alternative.

I've been wanting to talk to you.

Good job.

All right, today's the day I have to
submit my roster for the ten players for

the tournament squad.

You all have done a fine job. I'm real
proud of you. I wish I could take

everybody.

Now remember, there's always next year,
so if you don't hear your name called,

don't figure it's the end of the world.

Okay.

Following players report to practice
tomorrow.

Starzik?

I'm sorry, okay?

Gee.

Why don't you tell somebody?

Well, I didn't know who to trust. When
you think about it, everybody in this

house is a suspect but me.

Jeremy, your imagination is working
overtime.

This is not my imagination.

And how come your father was so upset
about me digging here if he didn't know

something, huh?

You did what you did. Now I know what we
got to do about it.

We?

What's this we stuff? How do I know you
didn't come snooping around here when

you saw me digging and now you're
steaming some cover -up?

A cover -up?

Jeremy, you're really paranoid.

Yeah, well, better paranoid than buried
beneath the Bradford vegetables.

Are you kidding?

How can you possibly believe something
like that?

Ask him.

Get back to work.

Nicklin.

Hey, what's wrong?

Go away.

You want to talk about it?

No.

Please?

Just leave me alone.

You've already done enough to me.

Wait a minute. Does this have to do with
my breaking up with Rick?

Yeah. I told you what would happen. He
dropped me from the team.

Come on, Nicholas. Rick may be boring,
but he wouldn't do anything that petty.

Oh, wouldn't he? I was doing great until
you had your fight with him.

You were?

Yeah. He said I'd make a great guard,
and he really needed me on the team. And

then you fight with him, and he dumps
me.

Well, Nicholas, if that's true, that's
really a terrible thing for Rick to do.

That's really vindictive.

No. It's mean.

You're right, Nicholas. It is mean.

Let me see what I can do, okay?

You have a very interesting situation,
Dave. Very interesting. But I think we

can make our way through the
complexities.

What complexities?

Well, I started the normal investigation
and I discovered that your wife made a

very nice income last year.

Yes? In fact, it was considerably higher
than your income.

That's right.

In other words, your standard of living
will drop when you have to live on your

own paycheck.

No, not really.

Oh, come on, Dave. Don't let your male
ego cloud the issue.

It's only logical, and any judge will
see it that way.

What are you driving at? Well,
fortunately, over the past few years,

have changed so much that men can
finally receive spousal support.

Alimony? Alimony, Dave.

Forget it. I don't want it.

I don't need it. I won't take it. But
you deserve it. Why throw away money

you are entitled to under the law?

When my construction company gets going,
I'll have money. Your construction

business, that is another complication.

You're in a partnership, right? Yes,
with my dad. I wish you would have

consulted me. I told you to incorporate.

We're going to make very sure that your
wife doesn't come after your business

assets.

You don't know Janet.

But I know human nature, Dave, and she's
got it.

And it's my job to protect you from it.

I'm sure you're aware that we can expect
your husband to ask the court for

spousal support, so we'll attack before
they do. David wouldn't do anything like

that. You think he wouldn't, but let me
give you a little tip.

Divorces change people.

He knows what you make and your
potential earning power.

So we'll ask for support.

We'll also ask for a complete accounting
of all his assets. You don't

understand. You see, Mr. Ross, David
doesn't own anything that I don't

know about.

All you wise say that.

You'd be surprised at what he probably
has stashed away.

Take this partnership he's in.

Have you ever seen the book?

No, there was never any reason.

Well, there is now.

He could hide a fortune from you in that
cozy little setup.

Not David.

Janet, I'm surprised at you.

You're acting like a typical bubble
-headed client instead of an experienced

attorney.

Someone in your emotional state needs
protection.

It's not like that.

Do you know who David hired for his
attorney?

Yeah, Gary Bennett. Right, and you know
how Gary goes for the jugular.

Well, I've heard he's pretty aggressive.

Gary is mean and hungry.

And I'm not going to let you be
outmaneuvered in this thing.

Especially when we have a few guns of
our own to blast with.

Rick?

Hi, Elizabeth.

Can we talk a minute?

Yeah, sure.

What a great surprise.

Oh, is it?

Yeah, I figured after the other night,
I'd never see you again.

Yeah, well, that's what I figured, too,
until I talked to Nicholas.

How could you do a thing like that?

What'd I do?

Oh, come on, don't play innocent, Rick.

Just because you're mad at me doesn't
mean you have to take it out on my

brother. Who gave you that idea?

Nicholas? Yes, he was perfectly aware of
what you did.

Frankly, Rick, I would think that a real
coach wouldn't allow his personal life

to hurt one of his players.

especially when his players are only 12
years old and they look up to you like a

god. Elizabeth, my decision to drop
Nicholas from the squad had nothing to

with you and me.

Oh, sure, that's easy to say right now.
Well, it's true.

He's too small to play basketball. All
the other kids his age have too much of

physical advantage.

He can't compete.

But he lives for basketball. It's his
favorite sport.

Well, unfortunately, he wasn't issued
the right body to play it with.

I know where Nicholas is coming from.

If I were in his shoes, I would think up
some excuse I could live with, too.

Well, if Nicholas wants to think the
worst of me, just let him.

Rick?

I owe you an apology.

I made a big mistake.

Ah, forget it.

Now what am I going to tell Nick?

You're sure all Bradfords are present or
accounted for? Yes, of course, Officer

Burns. Except for Tommy.

Tommy is missing?

Tommy is playing out of town with his
band.

At least that's the story.

Jeremy, this is an old call. Come on.

That's a good point.

We'll check this out.

And you say that you didn't find any
other parts?

Well, not here, but there's a whole rest
of the yard to hide parts in. If I were

you, I'd get a bulldozer. It's real hard
digging.

Yeah, right.

Well, first we're going to get a lab
report.

Then I'm going to check the list for all
missing persons and unsolved murders.

Murders? Face it, Joanie. He wasn't
buried here because it looks like a

cemetery. Right. We're going to have to
get to the bottom of this.

Meantime, I don't want any Bradford to
leave town.

A Bradford.

I knew they were strange, but I didn't
think it would go this far.

Hello, Janet.

David.

Well, now that the latecomers are here,
let's get started.

David, we better get something straight.
I do the talking. Your mouth stays

shut.

All I said was hello.

Then you looked like a lost cocker
spaniel wanting a pat.

You just lost a point.

Shall we try not to waste any more time?

Sidney, we have been ready since
yesterday.

Then you won't mind if I get right to
the point.

Mr. Bradford, would you please deposit
all your credit cards on the table?

My what?

Sidney, this is ridiculous. Those cards
are in Mr.

Bradford's name. And your client is the
one who should relinquish all continued

use of their marital credit.

But in examining the financial history
of their relationship, I find that Mrs.

Bradford... has been the most
responsible for repayment of their

charges.

Obviously, I cannot expose her at this
time to what could be a considerable

financial risk.

There is no risk. I never used them. I
don't believe in them.

Janet, will you tell them? Dave.

Janet, will you explain it to these
people?

Wait a minute.

What's going on here? Would you say
something?

Mr. Bradford.

Stop intimidating my client.

Sidney, now just hold it. It is
precisely because of such unproductive

emotionalism that I've instructed my
client to communicate only through me.

I suggest we continue this when you're
better able to control yourself, Mr.

Bradford. Let's go, Janet.

Hey, talk to me.

Did you do anything about it?

About?

Talk to Coach Eason.

Yeah, we talked.

What did he say?

Well, you were right, Nicholas.

He did get mad at me, and that's why he
kicked you off the team.

He said that?

Well, not exactly, but I could tell
that's what happened.

I thought so.

Hey, I'm sorry if I caused you some
problems. I didn't mean to.

I'm getting over it. I'm glad you're
getting over it.

Yeah, well, who'd want to be on a team
run by a guy like that anyway?

Good morning, Mr. Bradford.

Oh, yes, good morning, officer. My
daughter has briefed me on the skull

situation. I only wish I had found out
about it sooner.

What did the police laboratory have to
say? Well, I think that we can all relax

now. You mean no murders, no missing
persons?

No, there's nothing in the active file.

And the lab analysis indicates that that
skull happens to be anywhere from 200

to 300 years old.

Really? Doesn't look a day over 100.

Well, are you sure about that?

We have verified their conclusion.

Oh, I forgot to introduce Chief Sun
Bear.

Chief, this is Mr. Bradford and a small
part of the Bradford tribe.

Mr. Bradford?

How do you do? Now, you say that you
verified the lab findings. I don't

understand why.

The Consolidated Tribal Council has a
great interest in this kind of thing,

Bradford. We ask all government agencies
to advise us when they have any

potential archaeological evidence of our
ancestors.

You mean this might be an Indian skull?

Yes. In cases like this, it's very
possible that this site is an ancient

ground. This site?

Right. We'd like your permission to
excavate, Mr. Bradford.

Excavate?

It's quite possible that we can achieve
our objective without removing the

house. Oh, but my dead body. You don't
wish to cooperate.

This is my home.

Well, what about history?

Don't you care?

After all, we were here first.

No, no, not we. He was here first. And
so far, I haven't heard a word from him.

I'm going to contact my lawyer.

We'd like to declare this area a
historical landmark.

You'll hear from us.

And you said we could relax. Thanks a
lot, Officer Bernstein.

I think we'd better get the wagons in a
circle.

How?

Ah, I really appreciate your seeing me
on such short notice.

Please make yourself comfortable, Mr.
Bradford. Thank you.

What can I do for you, Mr. Bennett? As I
understand it, you are a partner with

David in the Bradford Construction
Company. Yes, that's right.

Well, I am anticipating that David's
wife is going to try to grab all of his

assets that she can.

Grab? Yes. And I think we ought to take
steps necessary to prevent that. Now,

Mr. Bennett, the only assets that our
little company have are David Bradford

himself and a small line of credit at
the First National Bank.

Good. That is exactly the position we
must be prepared to take. No, no, no.

not a position. It's the truth.

You make a wonderful witness, Mr.
Bradford. I love your ingenuousness.

If we play our cards right, I think we
will be able to block any dilution of

David's assets and make his wife cough
up with some healthy alimony payments.

What is this? Two people ending a
marriage or a financial battle?

Obviously, you are aware that divorce
has its financial aspects.

I am aware that two people who I love
very much are in a lot more trouble than

figured.

Goodbye, Mr. Bennett. I have a lot of
work to do.

David, I never wanted to do this, but
your lawyer has just convinced me that I

should risk butting in where I don't
belong.

What are you talking about?

Institutions.

Institutions? I believe in them, but
you've got to watch them closely or

stop serving you and you'll start
serving them, like in this divorce of

Oh, I know. It's exploded into a
terrible mess.

That's right. That's because you've let
the adversary system take over. You're

no longer Janet and David. You've become
adversary of the first part and

adversary of the second. Dad.

The reason for that is because Janet
feels... Oh, now, stop that. I don't

to hear any more about Janet. I want to
hear about you.

Now, you don't want this, do you?

Of course not. Well, then do something
to stop it. Don't let them push you into

hating each other.

That would hurt me very much, David. It
would hurt everybody who loves you.

You know how I hated to see your
marriage end.

Well, it would be worse for everybody if
something happened to yours and Janet's

friendship.

Elizabeth, I wouldn't blame you if you
decided I was your worst favorite

brother. Why would I do that?

You don't have to keep pretending.

I talked to Coach Easton today.

You did?

Yeah, he told me what really happened.

Thanks for trying so hard not to hurt my
feelings.

After all those things I said, most
people would have wanted to hurt back.

Nicholas, I couldn't do that. I love
you.

Well, I love you, too.

I'm sorry I said all those mean things.

I guess it was just easier to blame me
for not making the team than to face

I really am, a sport.

Hey, now don't you ever say that. It
takes a very big person to do what you

did. You think so?

Mm -hmm.

Bigger than anybody I know.

Well, if I wasn't so big, I'd give you a
hug.

Come on, do it anyway.

I'm going to miss your laugh.

I'm going to miss you on Sunday
mornings.

All soft in your bathrobe.

It's your bathrobe.

It smells of your aftershave.

You're still wearing your wedding ring.

I know. I just feel naked without it.

I feel so alone.

David, will you promise me?

Promise me you'll always be my friend.

And that's the whole story.

At least now it's an agreeable
disagreement.

I wish the very best for David. I really
do.

And you all know how I feel about Janet,
and I always will.

I don't know what to say.

I guess it's all been said.

We just wanted you all to understand.

And I want you all to know how much it's
meant to be a part of this family.

Janet, you're still a part of this
family.

Yeah. David may divorce you, but I sure
won't.

Thanks.

He's right.

He'll always be our sister.

Be our daughter.

There's something about this case that
doesn't fit.

A human skull.

Two, maybe three centuries old.

Two reliable experts say that this was
very likely an Indian skull.

And something about that bothered me.

This whole thing bothers me.

I kept sifting through the evidence.

Sifting, sifting.

Suddenly the pieces began to fit.

I asked myself, why?

Why did a 200 -year -old skull suddenly
appear in a vegetable garden that was

dug up every spring?

Good point.

And then I remembered something.

Seymour.

Seymour? Yes, Seymour.

Seymour?

Seymour from across your alley.

With a long record of breaking and
entering. Who is currently on parole

city town.

And who obviously has a lot of
experience at hiding bones.

You mean Seymour buried the skull in our
yard? It's the only logical

explanation.

He had motive.

But I still had to prove opportunity.

Opportunity? Where did Seymour get this
skull?

Yeah, where?

Would you produce the next exhibit,
please?

This is the clincher.

Once I was able to fit this piece into
the puzzle, I knew the case would be

solved. Oh, Mary!

Why? Mary, I thought you were at the
hospital all week.

I was until Officer Bernstein came and
got me. But why?

Because I remembered that your oldest
daughter is an intern.

Dr. Bradford, is this the skull that you
told me was stolen from your car?

Yes, that's the one.

It's the revolving trophy that's given
to the intern who works the longest

without sleep.

I was so tired, I guess I didn't bring
it up into the house.

There. My most difficult case solved.

And I apologize for myself.

All my ancestors.

I discovered yesterday that the
Sacramento Indians didn't even come into

area. Really? Why?

Because it was cursed.

Cursed? Well, you win some and you lose
some.

Congratulations, Officer.
