Right here!

All the way down!

414 Nostrand Avenue. Units respond.

723, Manhattan South Detectives. We'll
respond. We're in civilian clothes.

Gen 4, car 723.

All right, let's go.

money off the truck.

Let's get out of here

This is the four -door green sedan.

I can't see it!

We've got a couple bucks to go. Try and
make it.

I don't think we can. We'd better ditch
and run.

No! It's a drop. Try.

Messages!

Related to you? No.

All right, is there people in the store?

Well, I got these kids in there with
weapons.

Well, I got about six. What about the
officer? Emergency services trying to

reach him.

Tie that around your waist. I think he's
paralyzed.

They got two handguns and a shotgun.

And there's a patrolman inside?

I don't know if he's still alive.

He's sent for an ambulance.

It's on the way. They got one coming.

Bad news here.

Apex surplus store, work clothing,
camping equipment, guns and ammunition.

Highest grade rifles, handguns,
shotguns, all makes.

Savings at every department.

Hold the rifle straight right.

You know me?

Mike!

Any other way out of here? No.

What about the roof?

There's no way up there from the inside.

What's that?

What's that?

Hey, what the hell?

Yes? It's the police.

Go ahead.

This is Lieutenant Kojak.

I want to come into the store and have a
talk.

I'm alone and unarmed.

Uh -huh.

Um, all right.

Join the party.

Looks like we got us another cop.

Nice and slow.

Turn around.

Turn around.

Back in the rest of the way.

You don't want to talk to him?

Yeah.

I forgot your name.

Kojak.

Talk.

Well, the area is surrounded.

And we don't have a chance. You could
have said that over the phone.

I came to make a deal.

What are you offering?

A chance for all of you to walk out
alive.

I mean, okay.

That's a lousy bluff.

You ain't about to crash this place, not
with all of these citizens.

Why don't you send them out and hold me?

You're no price. Who cares about a cop?

Can I take him?

No, you can't take him. I'll make you a
deal.

I want a clear path to the airport and a
plane ready with an overseas flight

crew.

Well, that's not in my authority.

I didn't think it was. Pass the word on
to the brass.

Maybe it'll prove. What do you think?

It's possible.

That's what I wanted to hear.

Can I talk to him?

Go ahead.

You hear me?

I'm trying to get a doctor in.

Oh, geez, it hurts.

You start to worry when it stops
hurting.

Hold on.

Can I bring a doctor in?

Why? The cop's had it.

You don't know that.

And if he dies, there'll be a murder
charge.

There might already be a murder charge.
What about the cop he nailed outside?

No, he's all right.

What do you say?

All right.

One doctor.

And don't forget about the airplane.

He won't forget.

It's 429.

Set it.

You got two hours to get us on our way
to that airplane.

If not, I start throwing them out.

Meet the clock as a reminder.

of the store now. Perhaps we can get a
word with him.

Lieutenant, what's the situation in the
store?

This is Dr. Simmer. What condition is
the officer in?

Conscious. He's got a bad stomach wound.

They set up a command post on the third
floor.

I

want

three lines.

They want an airplane.

We've got until 6 .30 to give them
confirmation or they'll kill the

How many innocents in the store?

Six, including the officer.

Get me the mayor's office.

Think they're capable of killing him? I
got all their records.

The wounded suspect is Emory Wilson,
hidden in the beach cage.

He identified all his buddies.

The three in the store are Jerry Talaba,
Mike Armazine, and Jack Merzel.

Ben?

Ben?

Frank Talaba. Jerry Talaba's older
brother. He and Ben escaped in the panel

truck. Frank Talaba planned the whole
job.

I said put the layer on.

I don't care who he's with.

Yes, doctor.

Your officer has a violent internal
hemorrhage and his condition is serious.

He might live if we can get him to a
hospital in time.

How long otherwise?

Maybe a few hours.

He's going to need another injection
soon for his pain.

All right, doctor. Thank you.

Jerry Talaba, two arrests for armed
robbery, two for assault and attempted

murder. John Mersey, convicted of double
homicide at the age of 15, spent six

years in a hospital for the criminally
insane.

Now, who asked the question whether
they're capable of killing those

Any more questions?

The mayor's giving the airplane
evacuation plan immediate evaluation.

Ah, forget it.

You mind interpreting that for us,
Lieutenant?

Hey, look.

You give those punks a 707, you're just
adding a flight crew to the hostages.

That plane ride is a death trip.

And it's going to be a shootout no
matter where they land.

You have any better ideas? Yeah, just
keep them in the store. At least we have

some control over them. Control with
five hostages, a wounded cop, and all

under a time limit? Gentlemen,
gentlemen, we can't all decide strategy.

The wounded policeman held hostage in...
Inside the store has been identified as

patrolman Richard Calvelli, 23, married
and the father of two children.

His condition has been reported as
serious and without hospitalization.

worsen. Thus far, police officials who
have set up a command post... Hey, why

don't we let the cop go?

He's no use to us. No way.

He stays here alone with the rest of the
citizens.

Put the layout of the store foundation.

You mean digging?

There's a utility tunnel which runs
alongside the store basement.

Emergency service can break in through
there and do it by 6 .30.

Yeah, but there's a risk involved.

Suspect's mightier than digging.

We got an armored personnel carrier out
there that makes more noise than a

boiler factory.

All we gotta do is keep it moving
around.

It's better than a 707.

Are you sure of that, Lieutenant?

Because if we go ahead, you're going to
have full tactical command all the way.

Just so nobody thinks that the job is
over when we get into the basement.

We don't go near those hostages until we
get a major diversion.

Something to distract.

A chopper.

Thumping a lot of men on top of the
roof.

Make these punks think that they're
being assaulted from above.

If one of those hostages is killed in an
exchange, we'll all be held

responsible.

All right, start digging.

We're wasting time!

Why don't we start with the citizens?

Show the heat, we mean business. Wait.

We got time for that later.

Take it easy.

Everybody listen.

We're not interested in killing you, we
just want to get out of here. But if

there's no airplane, then there's no
choice.

Ain't nothing personal, young man.

That doesn't mean that you all have to
die.

Maybe one of you goes and the cops will
give in.

If you have to kill someone, take me
first.

We got us a volunteer.

If you're any older, you disappear.

Shut up.

Please let me go.

I'll do anything.

Stand up.

Hey.

Don't blow your face off.

Stand up.

Turn around, slow.

You an actress?

A model.

Funny.

Most guys spend their lives hoping for a
chance with a girl like you.

But right now, it doesn't mean a thing.

Amazine. One arrest for assault, two for
possession of Mary Jane.

A call just came in. They found a panel
truck that Frank Talaba escaped in.

Where? Just a couple of blocks from
here, a garage over on Hayward. The

abandoned. No sign of the suspect.

Well, you better highball it down there
and see what else you can learn. Right.

Hey, you think Frank Talaba could soften
up his brother? Well, the records

indicate that he always had.

We know he planned the armored car take,
cutting his little brother in on a

piece of the action.

What kind of boots you got on?

Combat boots.

What?

Combat boots.

Yeah? You in the army?

No.

I always wanted to be.

Turn me down.

What is that?

Emotional instability.

Hey, Mersey, that makes two of you.

That ain't funny.

You're absolutely right. That ain't
funny.

So you always want to be a hero, huh?

I guess so.

Dumb hero. You're sweating all over
yourself.

It's hot in here.

Take your coat off, why don't you?

I'll be all right.

Hey, listen.

I had a funny feeling about the building
where she... shaking or something.

George Meff.

Used to make obscene phone calls. That
was a long time ago.

Then his phone bill got too big, so he
started putting his money in the

property. Is that right, Georgie? I own
a few buildings.

Including, it's got the lease on this
joint right here.

Blue van.

You charge for parking space, George?
Huh?

I never saw this before.

Come on, you know you're smoking, boy.

Somebody must have snuck in.

Hold it, Eddie, hold it. They must have
snuck in when I was out to run.

Did you ever hear of the Talaba
brothers?

No. Huh?

No. They ripped off an armored car just
two blocks from here.

This place seems like a perfect place to
make a vehicle slip. I don't know what

you're talking about.

Oh, I'll break it down for you. You and
I are going to pull a big heist. The

only problem is, we've got to get away.

And Manhattan is a pretty congested
place to go far in a hot car.

So the ideal plan is to have a coal car
planted nearby.

You know what I'm saying, Georgie? No.
There was nothing planted here.

That's funny.

One of your neighbors saw a couple of
guys matching the Calabas description

parking a van here three days before the
robbery.

The neighbor says he saw you giving
parking breaks.

You want to talk to your neighbor,
Georgie?

Huh?

Calaba never told me when they were
going to pull the robbery. What are you

charging for the storage?

Give me a description of the van,
Georgie.

30 feet.

30 feet? Rust color.

Rust color? I didn't notice the light.
What did you notice? What do you mean

didn't notice the light? What did you
notice? When they brought the van in, I

saw some lettering on the side of the
cab. What lettering? It read, uh,

something salvage yard.

Salvage yard? Come on, Georgie. Think
hard, George. Think hard. I can't

it. Think about it, Georgie.

All right, let's have a replay.

They drove in in the panel truck.

They switched the money from one van to
the other van.

That's right. And then drove out? And
you're going to tell me that we're not

going to wait here for our buddies?

Oh, they were too scared. And they gave
me a message to tell them.

They told me to tell them that they were
headed for the safe house.

Where's that, Georgie?

I don't know. I don't know.

Come on, George. Start making sense.

You're being honest, right? Come on. You
can do better than that, George.

Come on. Let's go.

Come on.

Okay, Bob. You start and check on the
closest salvage yards.

Right.

We just got word in City Hall on
Talaba's airplane.

Mayor had to turn it down.

Seems he felt the same way you did.

We'd only be putting more people in
danger.

Why don't you put a clamp on that news?

When these punks find out that their
last hope has gone down the toilet,

going to start wasting hostages.

Where are you going?

Across the street. I just got a call.
Might have a lead on Frank Talaba.

It's got to do with walking back into
that store.

I said we might have a lead.

I don't know how long it's going to take
to pay off.

But we're fighting for time, and I'll
take it any way I can.

resembles a battleground. No further
word on the condition of the hostages or

the wounded officer.

They won't let me back in there and that
officer needs medication.

Give it to me.

Is this for pain?

Morphine.

Give me a priest.

Sorry, pal.

We might all need priests in a few
minutes.

That's very important.

This is for him.

First one

for free.

Yeah, it's on the house. I got
connections.

Any chance of getting out of here?

Sure.

Yeah, and the devil throws lemonade,
right?

What's the news?

You got your plane ride?

Mayor approved it.

What's the hook?

None.

They're writing a 707 to Kennedy now.

Who's the crew? The cops and the FBI?

It's your ride. You make up your own
mind.

All right.

I want a bus back to the front of the
store.

Feet's removed so we can have a free
hand with the hostages.

Kennedy's a long drive.

We ain't gonna drive very far, just to
the nearest heliport.

We're gonna fly the rest of the way.

You take care of that little detail,
I'll cause you... He's gonna slow you

Gonna have him when we're on the plane.

How long before we get going?

We're in contact with Kennedy operations
now.

They're having a little trouble
assembling a flight crew. You know, no

anxious for a job like that.

How much time?

About two hours. Forget it. You're
stolen, Kojak.

You had two hours.

It's 5 .30.

You've got just one left.

Let that plane is ready by 6 .30, Kojak.
We're going to have one for the meat

wagon. And 15 minutes later, we're going
to have another one. If you think I'm

bluffing around with you, you read my
yellow sheet.

Get out of here.

Emergency service. They're almost
through to the basement.

Let's hope they don't hear that drilling
upstairs.

Well, they're digging with shovels now.
Hey, look.

I told them the mayor will get a plane.

And they bought it? Well, they didn't
buy it for extending time. We got 55

minutes before they thought throwing
bodies out the door.

We checked with Talaver's past
associates.

He's got a friend who owns a salvage
yard. His friend has a record for

cold cars for rip -offs.

What's his name?

Albie Linnick.

Fat Albie.

You know him?

From the first car he ever stole.

Hey, look, if Talava's brother's hiding
out with him, I better handle this

myself. And I might make you a deal with
Albie. You hold this.

Take 10 minutes there and back, and God
help us if there's a trap in chat.

Come on.

Lot of car there, Albie.

Yeah, there's enough forces in that
engine to fly you to Canada.

What's the matter?

My heart's kicking.

I need some air.

That's the job I yourself I need a few
seconds rush

That

boy

You know where's that place? As far as I
can get.

Any bad company in there?

Frank DeLava?

Yeah, and some other crazy pun.

I souped a car for him and then bluffed
the store.

What were you afraid of? They wouldn't
leave any witnesses?

I wasn't going to stay to find out.

Are you going to crash in?

No, fatso.

We're going to wait until they get
curious about you. Get over there.

Drop your gun!

I said drop it!

Frank DeLava!

Front and center!

Head and back out.

That's good. Nice and slow.

Okay.

Frankie, baby, do I have a deal for you.

Well, they've broken through.

What's it look like? Well, there's a
stairway. The store's floor plan shows

it leads up to a stock room at the rear
of the main floor.

Now, the problem is sending men in.

We're fresh out of daylight, and they've
got the power turned off in the store.

Can you blame them with those lights on?
They're a sniper's delight.

But don't sweat it, Mac.

The darkness can be a friend to us, too.

Okay, sweetheart.

It's you and me.

We're going to go into that store, and
you're going to tell your brother to

up, please, and give himself up.

You gotta be crazy.

Look, I'm not walking into that shooting
gallery.

He's only got two options.

Either we cut him off for dog meat or he
goes into the slam for keeps and you

can save him. I got a better chance at
saving myself.

Oh, do you?

Maybe you don't understand, but you're
just as legally responsible for those

hostages as your brother, Mercy, and
Amazine. And you're gonna fleece the

just looking at that jury.

You think it over.

Well? All right, I'll talk to him.

But it's not going to do you any good.

It'll do some.

Maybe not for you, maybe not for me.

But it'll distract that gang long enough
for the hostages to spot the escape

route.

Time's just about up.

What's that?

What's that?

Chopper. Three emergency service
officers with drills.

I'm not sure they give us the
distraction we need.

So what's the plan?

Yeah.

Go to the basement. The police are
there. Well, that's short and clear.

How do you signal it?

Oh, you listen to her.

You can't wear a wire in that.

Well, not me.

I just don't think T 'Lavo takes his own
brother.

Certainly. And I can be a transport to
the airfield.

I'm worried about my family and what
they're going to do.

They're going to be with you, well and
happy.

You're saying that so I don't give up,
but you did.

You told those animals you wanted to
die.

Not wanted.

I didn't say that.

I only meant that at my age, what's left
of my life doesn't greatly matter.

It does to me.

Well, it should.

You're a policeman.

That's a noble thing to be, an important
thing.

We're not perfect, but we're okay.

We're the only line between the people
and them.

Hands up.

And you're it.

Alava.

Alava, I'm coming in.

Say it back. Get back. Get back. Get
back.

Get that creep out of here.

I want to talk to you, Jerry.

You did your talking when you ran out on
us.

Come on, kid.

At least let me explain.

All right.

Come on, both of you inside.

All right, they're in. Go ahead.

I didn't run out on you, kid. I figured
you were right behind me.

You didn't wait around to find out, did
you?

You got anything else you want to say?

Keep it up, Jerry, huh?

Before they have to carry you out.

Hey, you don't sound like my tough big
brother anymore.

If I get carried out of here, you're
going to be right with me.

Don't worry about it. Maybe watch
anybody get carried out. Didn't they

us an airplane?

That's your goof, Kojak.

I warned you.

The first bullet's got your name on it.

I told you we needed more time.

Pass me a handkerchief. I cry easy.

Jerry.

Some news.

Get on the drill.

The mayor out of the emergency session
at City Hall.

The WREN news team has attempted to
contact the mayor's office and police

officials for confirmation of this
report.

So far, communications blackout has
existed.

You're going to be the first

one out the door now. Get up.

Hey, Grover, he moved Waston!

Get in there, see?

There's no way out now.

Put down your gun and walk out with your
hands out.

Put that army of trigger -happy stiffs
out there.

Here.

You put down the gun, and I'll lead the
way out.

Turn around, Kozhik.

No.

No more orders, T 'Lava.

You've run out of cards. Everybody's
gone.

Everybody but you.

Well, cops are no price, remember?

Do no good killing me.

Wrong.

Killing you is going to give me a lot of
satisfaction.

Will you make up your own mind? Because
I'm walking.

I'm warning you, Kojak.

Kojak, I'm going to blow you away.

No! No!

Listen,

I just wanted to say thank you.

I'm sorry about that officer.

He might have saved himself, but he came
into the store to warn us about those

gunmen. He was very brave.

That's what he got paid for.

The only line.

What?

Those were his last words about the
police being the only line of defense.

Defense between... I understand.

Come on, get in. We'll go for coffee.

Let's wait until my nerves settle down.

I can understand.

It's hard to keep your mind off of
everything that's happened.

I'm thinking what's going to happen.

All that damn paperwork.

um
