[MUSIC PLAYING - "THE ITCH FOR SCRATCH"]

[PHONE RINGS]

Yes?

Yes, sir.

I'll send the plumber up right away.

How you making out?

[BANGING]

PLUMBER: I'll be finished in a minute.

Yeah, well, take your time.

[BANGING]

Eh, everything is fixed now.

Great.

It looks like somebody threw a telephone book down there.

I don't see the point.

Why would anybody want to throw a telephone book down there?

I don't know.

Maybe they don't like the telephone company.

And maybe, they don't like the hotel.

And when they don't like the hotel,

Sometimes they sabotage the plumbing.

There's so many screwy people in the world, see?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, I guess there are.

But I don't care.

I even get paid anyhow.

That's good.

I don't work at this work, you know.

Personally, I don't care.

They can throw a dead horse down the drain.

I get paid anyhow.

See the point?

Yeah, I understand, sir.

Well, that's it.

If you want to go in, go in.

Everything's fine.

Thanks a lot.

So long.

[MUSIC PLAYING - BIG BAND SWING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh, uh, Mr. Jackson.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Have a seat.

Cigarette?

Thanks.

My secretary tells me you're interested in one

Of our offices.

The one on the second floor interests me,

But there are a couple of problems.

Oh, we'd be happy to decorate.

No, it's a matter of security, Mr. Palmer.

You see, being in the jewelry business,

My insurance company would insist on much stronger locks

And, if possible, some sort of a burglar alarm.

I thought maybe you could extend the bank's

System to cover the office.

I'm afraid that's a popular fallacy, Mr. Jackson.

Banks rely on vaults, not on alarm systems.

With our cash in the vault, there's

Nothing you can steal but the desks.

And even those are fixed to the floor.

I see what you mean.

Well, let me give it some thought.

I'll let you know in a couple of days.

Let me have police headquarters, please.

Oh, no, no.

It's not an emergency.

Hello.

Hello, Sergeant.

My name is Maguire, James Maguire.

And I'm from the Five Star Film Company.

We're shooting a picture in town, as you know.

And our next scene is at the US National Bank.

It's a bank hold-up scene.

Oh, yes, of course.

We have permission from Mr. Palmer

And the Commissioner's Office.

I assumed you knew all about it.

Yes, well, could you send a couple

Of officers down to the bank tomorrow morning at 7:30?

That's when we start rehearsing.

Thank you very much, sir.

[PHONE RINGING]

Good morning.

The police department?

Yes.

Yes, yes, this is Palmer.

Huh?

Broken into the bank?

I'll be right down.

Oh, good Lord.

Now, for this rehearsal, boys, Mr. Palmer

Will be driving down here in a little while.

He'll get out of his car, very excited, and say,

What happened?

You say, inside, sir.

OK.

Oh, Mr. Palmer's going to be in the picture, huh?

Oh, yeah.

He's a frustrated actor.

That's how we got permission to use the bank.

He wants to act real bad.

Is that right?

Yeah.

I didn't know that.

You know, this guy takes it real seriously.

Don't forget, you boys stay outside.

When he drives up, he gets out and says, what happened?

You say, inside, sir.

OK?

Good.

All right.

What happened?

Inside, sir.

Hello, Mr. Palmer.

Mr. Jackson, what is this?

A stick-up, Mr. Palmer.

Just have a seat and wait for the vault to open at 8 o'clock.

What is this?

Some kind of a joke?

Are you out of your mind?

Have you gone crazy?

[BELL RINGS]

OK, let's go.

Come on, open it up.

You'll never get away with this.

You'll never get away with this.

We have the serial number on every bill in here.

Argh!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Well, I locked him in the vault.

That's what it says in the script.

I don't know how he's going to get out of there.

I'll see you later, boys.

I'm going to go down and talk to the director.

This thing is getting out of hand.

Ten-four.

What's new?

Still looking for that bank robber.

Chief thinks he's the same guy who

Pulled that getaway at the airport yesterday.

Bet he's tied in with that Dawson outfit.

Lucky him.

If Dawson's behind it, he won't find any evidence.

Sit down.

How much am I paying you, Adolph?

Why, I get six bills a week and a bonus.

Have you been earning it?

You're kidding!

The operation's going like silk.

Is it?

Who's responsible for the bank job?

ADOLPH: This job wasn't pulled by any of our men.

But it was pulled in my territory.

I'm getting the blame without any cut.

So he's a loner.

It's happened before.

But not my area.

Go out and find him.

Yeah, well, here I am, back again.

Yeah, I'm playing him for show, and I'm winning.

Just missed the first race.

You're not here to watch the races.

Now split up.

And you take the other end.

OK.

[WHISTLING]

[CHEERING]

You got him!

You got him!

That a boy!

Have you seen him inside the stands?

I can't figure out where he'd be in this crowd.

Come on!

Move it, move it.

You got it!

Hey, over there.

Could that be him?

Nah, that guy's too bi... maybe.

Let's get, Adolph.

He's seen us.

Let's get him.

Come on!

Come...!

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Hey, mister, your rear tire is flat.

What?

Yeah, take a look!

Over here.

Can't be.

Umph!

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Let's get our car.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Mason, no luck.

Let's keep trying.

Excuse me, miss.

Do you have a match.

There's no smoking in the public library.

I'm sorry.

Oh, excuse me.

A public library you say?

Would you mind keeping your voice down?

Oh, sorry.

Uh, do you have any books here?

Well...

Well, what sort of books do you have?

What book do you want?

Uh, I don't know.

Something interesting, I guess.

What do you find interesting?

You mean in the way of books?

Yes, in the way of books.

They have all kinds of books here.

Uh, what do you find interesting?

Didn't we just have this conversation?

I guess so.

Well, we have fiction, nonfiction, sports, science,

Biology, astrology, agriculture, photography, law, gardening,

History, poetry, religion, music, cooking, psychiatry...

Uh, gardening.

Well, uh, we have an excellent book on practical gardening

By a Mary Harper Lewis in the Ls.

Mary Harper Lewis?

Oh, I, uh... I don't particularly care for her style of writing.

Anybody else?

Well, there are many books on the subject.

Excuse me.

How are you today, Joni?

Oh, just find, Miss Logan.

Thank you.

I don't think you're really interested in gardening.

It's a very good observation.

It also happens to be true.

As a matter of fact, you see, I just came in here for a rest.

Uh, I've been doing a lot of travelling.

You're only passing through.

Yes, I'm on my way to, uh, Mexicali.

Is that your home?

No, no.

I don't stay long enough in any one place to call it a home.

I just stop, wash my socks, do a little work, and then move on.

What do you do?

About what?

Work.

Oh, uh, I'm a bank robber.

What else?

I do some odd jobs here and there.

Well, if you're looking for a job, I can give you one.

Well, I... I wouldn't be of much use to you here.

I mean...

I didn't mean here.

Uh, I have a citrus grove.

Your citrus grove.

My citrus grove.

It was left to me.

I have some hands running it.

But I can always use an extra one,

Especially during irrigating.

OK.

Where do I go?

Go straight down the road until you see the third signal light.

Then, turn to the left.

Can't miss it.

Speak to Mr. Harris.

He'll set you up.

Mr. Harris.

Thank you very much.

See you later.

Let's try this place.

Thank you very much.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

There go my profits.

I really should be at the library today.

Uh-huh.

Well, I'll forget about my work if you'll forget yours.

It's very beautiful here.

Yes, it is.

I've never seen anything like it.

It's so clean, really clean, and quiet.

You sound as though you've never been on a beach before.

Yes, I have.

There was that beach in Normandy and, then, a beach

On Coney Island.

They both have rocks and sand and water.

The only thing was that one smelled

Of gun fire and the other of garbage.

Are those the only beaches you've ever been on?

Yes.

Is this the only kind you've ever been on?

Yes, except in books.

You spend too much time in books.

It's safe.

It's safe?

It's safe in jail too.

You sound angry.

You sound cautious.

I have reason to be.

What kind of sandwich would you like?

The one without the sand in it.

What do you mean, you have reason to be cautious?

In books, your friends don't leave you.

You say I sounded angry?

I wanted to do that the first time I saw you in the library.

And you knew it.

I knew it.

I couldn't understand why you didn't.

Because we were in the library.

There's only one rule in the library.

What's that?

No talking.

What's the rule on the beach?

No talking.

Pardon us, Mac.

We're from the FBI.

We were wondering if you ever saw

This fellow around here before?

Nope.

You sure?

Take another look.

Don't recognize him?

Don't thinks so.

OK, thanks.

Good afternoon, sir.

We wanted to ask you a few questions.

We're from the FBI.

Oh?

We were wondering if you ever saw

This fellow around here before.

I think so.

Oh, you have?

Whereabouts did you see him?

He's working on a small ranch about six miles out.

Well, thank you.

Thank you very much.

Here, I made some pizza.

There goes my lunch hour.

See anything?

Any sight of him?

Let me try them.

Look, halfway up that row, above the corral, and a little

To the right.

He's digging post holes.

Yeah?

That's what you think.

Come on, let's go.

[DOOR CLOSES]

Hello, Earl.

Well, what's new, Adolph?

I, uh, got a lead on the fellow who pulled the bank job.

Hey, that's great.

What's he doing with the money?

He switched the loot at the trotters.

Probably played the favorites to show.

He's living on a citrus ranch down in Capistrano.

Yeah?

What's the attraction?

Blond, 25, wears glasses.

Is he showing the money.

Nah, he bought a couple of suits, nothing fancy.

He's working down there, ranch hand.

Has the law been sniffing around?

I checked downtown with our boys in the police records.

His jacket hasn't been pulled in over, uh, two weeks.

Ah, that's local stuff.

The bank job put him in federal class.

Don't sell him short, Adolph.

Make him go the same route.

Just get him pulled in right away.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

OK, farmer, drop the tools.

Keep your hands down.

Face the house.

You know the routine.

He's clean.

Turn around.

OK, let's go.

Make it snappy.

We've got a cell warm for you.

Get out.

OK, farmer, you know what we want.

What did you do with the loot?

Well, I blew the money in Vegas.

Don't be a hero.

And don't pull any wise stuff.

You're not going to get a purple heart here.

Talk and talk fast or we'll kick you... why you...!

Urgh!

Maybe we should have taken him straight to the boss.

Relax, he'll talk.

Use your head, Johnny.

We can't waste all night with this guy.

And the condition he's in, we'll have a lot of explaining.

Don't worry about it.

We'd better get going.

The boss will get suspicious.

Let's clean him up.

You big jerk...

Ooof!

Look out.

[STRUGGLING NOISES]

Oooh.

Aah!

Uh, ugh.

[PHONE RINGS]

Yeah?

What sort of trouble?

Big rumble.

One driver quit, and the other's got a gut ache.

Pick me up in 10 minutes.

DAWSON: When are you going to learn how to handle simple jobs

Without waking me up in the middle of the night?

They were trying to make a buck on their own and it backfired.

Did you tell them to bring him right back?

Yeah, but I couldn't help it.

DAWSON: What happened?

Well, he tried to get rough.

So we worked him over.

He grabbed my rod, and I got nicked.

When he ducked, I got to a phone and call the boys.

Uh-huh.

That's all?

Sure, that's all.

You weren't trying to get him to talk about money?

No!

All I wanted to do was find out, for you, if, uh...

DAWSON: Adolph, how long has he been with us?

About two years.

Uh-huh.

Then he should know better than to cut in on his own.

You don't understand.

Boss!

Wait a minute!

Wait a minute, boss!

No!

You don't understand!

Wait a minute.

Wait a... aah!

Clean up this mess.

Don't leave any traces.

I'll pick up this gangster myself.

Oh, uh, were either of them married?

Yeah, Johnny was.

Mm-hmm.

Well, send the widow a thousand... no, uh,

Make it $500.

Could have used you in Korea and France.

You make a pretty good medic.

You're not going to operate, are you?

Do you mind getting me a cigarettes, please?

Thanks.

You see, I got mixed up in some trouble.

I know.

I'll get you some coffee.

The car is on the other side of the house.

You said you know.

What do you mean?

Your photograph is at the post office.

It's not a very good one.

Why didn't you call the police?

What have the police got to do with us?

Get some sleep now.

[CAR DOOR SLAMMING]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Who is it?

DAWSON: Relax, Martin.

I'm not the law.

Who are you?

What do you want?

DAWSON: My name's Dawson.

I want to talk business with you.

Have a seat.

Thanks.

You like a cigar?

No, thanks.

I suppose you realize, Mr. Martin, that two of my men

Are dead on account of you.

I told them, I blew the money in Vegas.

I wasn't interested in your money.

MARTIN: What then?

Your talents.

I want you to join my organization.

What do you want me for?

With the resources I could put at your disposal... influence,

Equipment, manpower, information...

You should be in the position to start a tremendous operation.

I'll tell you the truth, Mr. Dawson.

I've had enough.

I think I'll hang around the ranch for a while and relax.

Uh-huh.

But what happens when the money you blew in Vegas runs out?

Or when your impulse for excitement

Rises to the surface?

Or when you become... Shall we say...

A little weary of Miss Logan's affections?

Let's forget about the girl, OK?

If I need any money or any action, I'll give you a ring.

Unfortunately, I can't wait that long.

My plans call for your special talents

In the immediate future.

You'll have to make up your mind now, tonight.

There's something else you should take

Into consideration, two things in fact.

MARTIN: What are they?

First of all, moneywise, you will get 20% of all your jobs.

20%?

I get 100% when I work alone.

Mmm.

Well, you should net on your first job, $30,000

Or, perhaps, even something like $35,000.

That's just a starter.

The big one I have in mind for you

Should net at least $80,000.

Fair enough?

What kind of a job is this?

You will know when the time comes.

You mentioned two things.

What about the other one?

Protection.

You're wanted for murder, Mr. Martin.

As a member of my organization, you

Will never be touched, never.

You could sleep at night with your door open.

And you could take your money and deposit it

In the same bank you took it from.

Could you get a better offer than that, Mr. Martin?

Well?

When do I start?

Right now.

The first address is your apartment in Los Angeles.

It's furnished and paid for.

You knew all along I'd accept your offer.

You didn't have much of a choice, did you, Mr. Martin?

The second address is my office.

Meet me there tomorrow morning at 10:00.

If anyone attempts to pick you up, don't offer any resistance.

And here's another thing, if these impulses start,

Just reach for a phone instead of a gun.

You'll be out on bail in 10 minutes.

Good night, Mr. Martin.

Good night, Mr. Dawson.

I'm going with you, Jack.

Here, take a look at this.

It's the Metal Loch Country Club drawn to scale.

The office vault will carry a half million

Dollars in currency.

Are you serious?

This is the entrance, the roadway, the restaurant,

And... most important of all... the building

Where they keep the money.

On this particular weekend, the World Weight championship fight

Is on Friday, the derby is being run on Saturday,

And there are eight double-headers

Being played on Saturday and Sunday.

Now, the Gordon book-making syndicate

Operates out of this country club.

And they'll have the dough in the safe for the Monday

Pay off.

You mean to say that the bookies actually

Keep their money in that safe?

Right.

Whoa, we get some fresh air, and we

Leave with the bookie's money.

Don't make it sound so simple.

They have lots of protection.

It's going to take a nice bit of coordination and guts.

There's only one way to do this, Earl.

Let me tell you what I think...

And they have a 24-hour special armed guard.

That's no problem.

How about the vault.

Simple.

How many men do you figure for this job?

40, tops.

Too many.

I'll need about, uh, five.

OK.

You've got them.

When do we go to work?

A week from Saturday.

Very nice.

I'll get busy on it right away.

Oh well, let's play some pinochle, huh, Rudy?

400?

Or 300?

300's a better game.

You play pinochle, don't you, Norman?

Yeah, I play a little.

Only nickle and dime stuff.

On what you guys pay me, that's all I can afford.

Nobody's looking to get rich off you.

Come on, deal.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Sure hope I ain't seen trying to use these things.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

We play for an hour or two until the derby.

Then, we get the Dodgers game.

All right, it's combed!

Your hair is combed.

Come on, deal.

Those Dodgers blow that game the day we go for a package.

All the betters got the Giants.

Maybe they know something.

What can they know?

This ain't basket.

Everything is in the open.

Everything but what goes on in the pitcher's mind.

Oh, the whole game the psychiatrical, huh, Norman.

Boy, you should have been a psychologist

Instead of a special.

And the Dodger pitcher is worrying about that scream.

They ought to ship him right back to Brooklyn.

Oh, I'm telling you.

I wish you'd make a bid.

Your philosophy is sure giving me the cramps.

450.

I hope we have better luck the rest of the day.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Yeah?

Oh, pardon me.

I'm from the Stevens Furniture Company.

We've got your table and chairs for the lounge.

Can you tell me where it is?

You guys new around here?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

What happened to the other guys?

Oh, didn't you hear?

They were partners on that sweepstake ticket that hit.

They all quit together.

It's a good thing we don't pick the sweepstakes, huh, Rudy?

Straight down the road, 100 yards to the left.

It's on the right of dining room, the last building.

Down here, huh?

OK, thanks a lot.

Hey, buddy, would you come over here for a minute?

Take a look at this?

Yeah, anything to speed this up.

Now, look at this green here.

You see the way this mound slants?

You see, there isn't a, uh, straight path.

Look, there's a heavy tuft of grass here.

Do you think the grass is too bumpy here?

Ooh, uh.

OK, let's go.

Get that hand-truck rolling.

Hey!

There's a guy laying out there on the 18th green!

I think he's dead or something!

Oh, no!

OK, over this way.

Easy now!

You know, I got $20 in that safe.

Really?

Yeah, I bet on the Dodgers' double-header to win.

He's still breathing.

Oh, it's probably just his first hole in one.

Let's get this guy inside.

Something's fishy here!

Nothing messed up.

Boys, I think the safe is missing.

[PHONE RINGS]

Police department.

Can you give me their description?

OK, thanks.

Station four, all units 211 to Metal Loch Country Club.

Car 16.

[GUN FIRE]

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Oh, no!

Help!

Ooh!

Quick!

Get out of here!

Hey, what are you doing?

Thanks, Jack.

I won't forget it.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

MAN (ON RADIO): Sergeant Kelley, notify all personnel,

Washington Nulle's, Jack Martin is

Among the 10 most wanted men.

All leaves are cancelled.

Well, we have a stake-out here on Bell Road.

Sergeant Gary is checking a witness here on Clinton Street.

And Vick is following up an abandoned

Ambulance report on the edge of town.

What's the matter?

Aren't you eating?

No, I'm not hungry.

What's the matter?

Don't you feel well?

Jack, I'm going home.

I'm all packed.

What do you mean?

Why?

I can't continue this way any longer.

I don't understand!

Why the switch all of a sudden?

I fell in love with you all of a sudden.

I went with you all of a sudden.

Now, I'm leaving you, all of a sudden.

People do think and change all of a sudden.

Most of them take a longer time to act, that's all.

I don't want you to leave.

I must.

But you knew this!

In words, yes.

But I didn't know what it was really like.

And I didn't think it had to touch us both so constantly.

I still thought we'd have something together.

We do!

No, we don't.

You kill people, and I know it.

You don't turn into someone else when you get here.

You're the same man that has killed someone

And I can't forget it.

I can't change you.

I know better than that.

You can't change me.

So I'm leaving.

Suppose I change?

Suppose I quit right now?

Will you stay?

I don't think you can.

I can quit any time I want to.

And now's as good a time as any.

I've got enough money to last us for a long time.

We go across the border and we're set.

I'll go to Dawson right now and tell him I quit, a clean break.

Look, you can't walk out on me now.

I... I need you.

I love you.

And I need you.

You've never said that before and now you have.

Go, darling.

Go to Dawson now.

And I'll pack for both of us.

You're out of your mind, Jack.

That's the way I want it, Earl.

Of course it's your money.

You can do what you want with it.

But it's hot, Jack.

I'll get rid of it in Mexico.

And you're hot too.

Don't you think Jordan will get the connection

Between this job and the others?

What happened to all your influence?

Play it safe.

Stick with us for a while at least.

Give things a chance to cool off.

He's right, Jack.

When I want your opinion, I'll ask for it.

OK.

I'll tell you what I'll do, Jack,

I'm going to raise the stakes.

Your share will be the same as mine.

From now on, we're partners.

That's a great proposition, Earl.

I just can't take it.

All right.

If this is the way you want it.

Bye, Earl.

Goodbye, kid.

Good luck.

Get me the FBI on the phone.

I want to talk to Jordan.

What?

You think I'm going to let him walk out of this organization?

Don't be stupid.

He knows too much about it.

He knows every detail about the whole set-up.

He can't come in here and walk out with a bundle

And then quit.

If I let them get away with this,

I might as well pack up and get out of business.

How about letting our boys take care of him?

No, I can't afford to waste any more men.

Let the FBI take their glory.

But, Earl, this fellow... I'll call him.

That's right, Martin.

Never mind who this is.

OK.

Here's a tip-off.

All units in southern division, converge on apartment house

At 932 Irvine Street and wait for Captain Jordan.

Be on alert for armed suspect Jack Martin, wanted for murder.

[PHONE RINGING]

Hello.

Who?

Don't waste a single minute, Jack.

You want to level it, Alf?

Beat it on down to Mexico right away.

Thanks a lot.

Oh, Adolph, why, uh... why are you're doing this?

Carol, you through packing?

[SIRENS]

Let's go!

[SIRENS]

Here, take this.

Meet me across the border.

I have some business with Dawson.

Oh?

Thank you, Mr. Dawson.

We'll be right over.

He-he-he!

Hey, Jack!

Jack, wha... what happened?

What's the matter, kid?

Did you forget something?

I thought you'd be halfway to the border right now.

Anyway, I'm glad you're here.

I was just saying to, Adolph, about a terrific idea

I had that if you changed your plans... now here,

I want to show you something.

Keep away from there.

Jack, what's eating you?

I'm telling you, I've got a terrific plan for you.

You're a great planner, Dawson.

Only it's not going to work this time.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about double crossing friends.

What?

I take care of my boys on the field, Earl.

They appreciate that.

What are you're driving at?

You do a man a favor, you save his life,

He generally returns it.

Adolph was very prompt this time in returning the favor.

Adolph is a liar!

How did you know what I was going to say, Earl?

Jack!

I'll tell you... I'll tell you the whole thing.
