Suppose you kill someone.

This is Tully Tavales.

Here are some scenes from the next
episode of Kojak.

You're gonna kill me? Who is? This man
who died a year ago.

Greatest apartment store's been bombed
while the customers was killed.

Can she make that much difference?
Different?

She'll bring me back to life.

I saw him. He tried to follow me. Frank
Hilton's dead.

We got this yo -yo bomber running around
exploding these things at will. So we

pay and it's over.

And she either jumped or she fell.

Hello. Could I help you?

Is this yours?

It sure is.

That's nice.

You like, huh?

Reminds me of my home.

How much do you want for it?

Well, it was 50, but you could have it
for 40.

With a frame.

Okay. Will you deliver?

Sure. Can I pay you then?

Okay.

Okay, my name is Julie Winston.

Julie Winston.

And I live at 1043 West 4th.

Let's see what else I can spend my money
on.

Aha!

Get that car out of there.

Hey, that is great stuff.

So much.

Enough to keep me around.

You just sold a young lady. Now, I
wouldn't mind knowing something about

you can help me out.

You a friend of hers?

Yeah.

You a friend of yours?

He got a brother?

He's got a brother. He's got a brother?
He's got a brother.

Fantastic. Hey, Stavros, do me a favor.
The next time you make a report out for

me, at least spell my name right.

Crocker. Er.

ER. Not AR.

See, he's not a type that'll work.

The whole report's like this. So what?
Who's going to read it anyway?

Hi.

Can I help?

Please.

Sit down.

Now, what's the trouble?

There's this man who's supposed to be
dead, but he's going to kill me.

Why is he going to kill you?

Because I know he's alive.

You haven't been drinking, have you?

Maybe smoking a little dope.

Will you listen to me?

I am not crazy.

He is after me.

Who is?

This man who died a year ago.

Would you like a cup of coffee or
something?

Please don't patronize me.

I know what I'm talking about. If he
finds me, he will kill me.

Crocker.

Why don't we go in here? It's a little
more private.

Ma 'am.

Sit down.

I'm Lieutenant Kojak. What did you tell
me about it?

So you can laugh too?

I won't laugh at your name.

My name's Julie Winston.

I live at 1043 Westport.

Frank Kelton was my neighbor in Ohio.

He was killed about a year ago with all
the papers.

They called it a gangland thing.

I saw him today.

He tried to follow me.

Were you sure it was the same man,
Julie?

I told you, he lived in the house next
door with his sister. I saw him almost

every day for months.

They were terrible people.

Look, Julie, haven't you ever stopped
someone you think you know, and then

you're embarrassed to find that it's
just a lookalike?

This lookalike ran after me. It was not
my imagination.

Yeah, well, New York, it isn't the
easiest place in the world to make it

People are constantly under pressure.

They let their minds wander sometimes.
Isn't it like that?

I'm not nuts.

I'm scared, and I want protection.

Well, according to the Ohio police,
Frank Kelvin's dead.

Okay, okay, take it easy.

Sit down.

Are you going to do anything?

Well, maybe you ought to talk it out
with someone.

A shrink?

Well, I'm trying to be helpful.

You're not gonna do anything, are you?
I'm not gonna do anything.

There's nothing to do.

this type of night.

You don't have to come down here anymore
tonight.

Come on. You've ordered yourself a ride
home.

Michael.

Why'd you pick this place?

See these broads?

They kind of have these built -in
antennas.

They can spot a cop who isn't even here
yet.

They move out.

We move out.

Kind of like being live bait.

I already was bait today. Once is
enough.

What are you talking about?

I think I was spotted. Somebody used to
know me.

What did you say?

She ran.

So that means a delay.

Well, how long?

Until I take care of it.

Can she make that much difference?

Make a difference?

She could bring me back to life.

And I like being dead.

Sure,

it's big.

And it's scary sometimes.

But it's New York. It's got it all.

Sure, murder and muggings and mayhem and
dark alleys and like that.

And museums and music, parks, people,
energy. Yeah, you like your job?

It's kind of fun.

On Broadway, right? The star of the
musical?

No drama?

Almost. I'm with office temporary.

New places, new faces.

Why is a kid like you alone?

I'm not.

Now.

It's nice.

Well, it's clean.

Right? And real cheap.

And, uh...

And if you have taste.

Okay, I give up. You can be nice if you
want to. And I won't stop you anymore.

Okay, well.

Another squad room.

It'll pass.

I buy all these paintings on wins.

Keeps me poor, but it's fun.

Was.

I was buying one today when I saw him.

Whoever he was.

Oh, you're no longer sure?

I was.

And now?

Well, I guess I did kind of hit the
panic button.

And I'm not as scared as I was anymore.

It is beginning to sound a little
foolish.

You got anybody to stay with you
tonight?

Is that a proposition?

Once upon a time, it would have been.

I haven't got any friends yet.

Men or women.

You know, this is an occasion. You're
the first man I've had in this

You must have a glass of wine with me.

Why do I always get prices I can't
accept?

Look,

here's my card. My card. It says
DeMarcus Grocery Store, but on this side

there's my number.

The apartment is as safe as can be. The
locks seem to work.

If you get scared, call me, okay?

Thank you.

No, thank you.

You're a kind man.

And you're real charming.

And you don't believe me, so thanks for
not believing me so graciously.

Okay.

to bust these winos on TV.

Couldn't have braked.

Stopped for a little late supper?

Hand -holing and champagne, Lieutenant?

He'll probably take you to the zoo on
Sunday like any good uncle.

Driving by here, I saw Jimmy Hiller. No
good Jimmy Hiller.

Standing in our corner, St. Mark's
Place.

And I said to myself, I'm sure Crocker's
gonna worry what he's doing here. Go

hold his hand.

Go, Jack.

Her name is, uh... Julie Winston.

Oh, you know her?

Or, uh... Who else you got?

Well, she lived on the fourth floor,
Lieutenant.

Sort of a loner.

Strange, you know?

What do I know?

Well, the way I see it, Lieutenant, she
goes up on the roof to get some fresh

air.

And she either jumped or she fell.

Some of those prints are mine.

Okay, I give up. You can be nice if you
want to.

I buy all these paintings on whims.

Keeps me poor, but it's fun.

I was buying one today when I saw him.

It is beginning to sound a little
foolish.

This is an occasion. You're the first
man I've had in this apartment.

You must have a glass of wine.

You're a kind man, and you're real
charming.

No notes, no signs of violence on the
roof or in here.

Just this card she was writing.

And you don't believe me.

Lieutenant?

We finished?

Tom, say hello to all the cops in Ohio.

It's lonely here, but nice.

Julie.

No address.

Give this one a full treatment.

Go through this apartment.

They just did.

Get them to dust up baggage and things
in a dresser.

From the roof down to the window ledge,
you start a canvas of the building and

you spread it out.

Apartments, stores, mailman, milkman,
people. Who was here?

Who she saw?

Like that.

For a jumper?

For this one?

So far, no friends, no relatives.

Nobody to ID the body yet.

Nobody.

She had me.

So, there's nothing else left to do
tonight.

Want to get some eggs on the way home?

No, I'm never going to call her, Nate.

You look at the time. What else do you
call us?

Parents were killed in a fire.

She's 15.

She really got to you.

No.

She's a kid.

I took her home to make me feel better.
I listened.

And I left.

But she's in a morgue now.

You think the dead man pushed her?

You know, the Ohio police are satisfied
that Kelton is dead.

The FBI never filed a report.

Why?

There was a gangland contract on him.

A body was found in a burnt -out car.
False teeth were his.

Jewelry.

What was left of his clothes.

His girlfriend identified what they
could sweep up.

You tired?

No. Good.

Walk in your sleep to the FBI.

You know the guys down there. See if you
can get something on this.

It's me.

No names.

Go ahead with it.

I'm dead again.

That was a long lunch.

You ever have lunch with a guy on a
federal payroll?

You know what you get besides
indigestion?

Well, the reason the feds didn't close
the book on Kelton is because he was one

of the best explosive men in the
business. And he was smart.

Too smart to get blown away the way it
happened.

How did it happen?

He hired out to settle a labor dispute.

Blew up a union hall. Killed three
people. Crippled ten.

The boys snuffed him before he could be
connected. And the feds don't buy it.

I found the artist she was talking to
when the guy spotted her. Cooler sketch

the guy. That's it right there.

All right. Thank you for me. I did,
Lieutenant.

It was $40.

The expected gross during a holiday
period should exceed a half million per

store per day. That's two million gross,
ladies and gentlemen.

The sale runs for ten days. Are we
adding up?

Then this thing happens.

We'll be lucky if we sell a pair of
tennis shoes.

Am I late?

Apparently it doesn't matter whether
you're here at all.

Here, this letter was tucked neatly into
my dashboard this morning.

Pay $100 ,000 and your holiday business
will be wrecked and you will have to

close down.

Next message will be directions for
payment.

Do you have any idea how much that
holiday business refers to?

I'll get this right over to the police
lab.

They may have a make on the typewriter
on the paper.

Mr. Donnelly!

Police here, publicity, frightened
customers.

Is that really what you have in mind?

Are you going to at least make a feeble
attempt to prevent the loss of 20

million in sales, which is the only
reason I employ you at that inflated

Now look, Mr. Proctor, the PD have the
manpower and the equipment to handle

kind of thing. They also have enough
press contacts to turn our sales floors

into echo chambers.

You are our security chief.

All right.

See what I can find out.

We may have some time before he tries to
contact us again anyway.

Now do that, and you won't be so
embarrassed to pick up your check next

And we're agreed.

I don't want any renter cops or part
-timers to know anything about this.

Because, number one, they have no
background for this kind of stuff.

And, number two, they're bound to let it
get out. So you just use your regulars

and, you know, tell them to keep their
eyes open.

Wait a minute. Another thing.

Get one of the girls to pull all the
files on the fired and disgruntled

employees. Also, the nasty notes written
by dissatisfied customers.

We'll run them through the usual.

You know, for the type and the kind of
paper.

Why don't you just turn it off to the
cops?

Because I don't make those kind of
decisions anymore.

I used to, but not anymore.

Want me to explain that better?

No.

Well, it's only a two -hour flight to
Ohio, then a quick hop to Virginia, and

I'll be back tomorrow.

Be my guest.

I'll tell you this.

I tried that one a few times myself.

So I'm telling you, you better have some
cash, because believe me...

There's no way you're going to pull
expenses for this from the borough.

It's a cubie case.

Jumped or fell, they won't shell out a
dime for a hunch.

Just cover me for the night and save the
economic history of the New York Police

Department. My friend, the jet setter.

What set you off? One of these Paul
Newman cop movies?

A couple of months after Kelton's body
was identified by his girlfriend, she

killed.

Killed during the commission of a
burglary, but not by a police bullet.

And that case is still open in Ohio.

I talked to the local police.

The captain has a sister in Parkersburg,
West Virginia.

It's about 20 miles from Ohio.

It's the only place that Paul Loomer's
never been to. You know what?

That's why I'm going.

In case the captain calls from the
convention, I'll tell him.

Kojak.

What do you mean?

Whatever it is, I mean something nice,
okay?

Flowers?

Yeah.

No? But I want you to do it right.

Whatever that means, okay?

Thanks.

I already checked there.

Go check the dressing rooms.

They set one off.

I just left the 58th Street store. I
planted one in the air conditioning

Nobody's hurt, just a plummet.

I think we can still squash it.

The doctor's going to go up the wall.

The doctor's going to go higher than
that.

Look over there.

Uh, don't you have enough troubles,
Parker?

I mean, don't you have the purity of New
York womanhood to worry about?

What are you doing, chasing fires now?
Come on. No, we got it over the air. The

CB sent us down here, said it was an
explosion. All the broads of New York

playing whistles and taking karate
lessons.

What'd you do, drop a cigar again?

Oh, so we blew a compressor.

Big deal.

Come on, Tom. I thought you were trying
to do a cush job. These things gotta go

for three for a dime.

You wanna see my pension check? No,
frankly, I'd rather see mine.

Crocker. Favorite.

Don't use the word fire.

Keeps the customers away.

That is conflagration, baby.

What about disturbance?

Huh? Well... Well, if he's happy, I'm
happy.

How much damage was there?

Three toilet bowls and some smoke.

Then we can open in the morning.

Police happy?

Yeah, I still got some muscle.

The other store?

No, we're okay there.

Good enough.

Wait a minute, wait a minute. What do
you mean, good enough?

Well, we got this yo -yo bomber running
around exploding these things at will.

So we pay and it's over. We pay him and
he'll pull this stunt again.

On us and other stores.

Look, I'm not concerned with the
operation of other stores. I operate

and this chain pays.

Proctor, listen to me.

He blew this one even before he told us
where to deliver the money. Now, he's

going to carry that thing in one day
during business hours. It's going to go

at the wrong time. We're going to be
letting a bloodbath happen. Have you

had enough of the good life plus an
inflated salary?

What does that mean?

Explain it to him.

And decide which of you will deliver the
money when he asks for it.

He means to do what he says.

I know what he means.

to start World War III all over?

Just trying out a new mixture.

Hey, let me tell you something. We
didn't need the last one.

What's the matter? Are you crazy or
something?

Suppose you kill someone.

Impossible.

A dead man can't kill.

I'm going to tell you something.

You pull that stunt again, and me, we're
through.

We're through.

Extortion's one thing.

Murder's another.

Eh, forget about it. Think about the
money.

Hey, wait till you see the nice job I
did on a new note.

I raised the ante another $100 ,000.

Hey, you're crazy.

That's why they're going to pay it.

You got something against another $50
,000 in your pocket?

You're not getting the message. We're
not going to be able to pull it off.

Look, you pick up that letter and you
make delivery now.

Good morning. We're not open for food
yet, but there's fresh coffee and

Oh, that'll be fine. I'll have a lot of
eating.

Help yourself. I'll count them later.

Black.

Are you the owner of this place, Mrs.

Chester? I'm the owner. Well, I'd love
to talk to you.

What about?

I'm Lieutenant Kojak, New York Police
Department.

I have nothing to say to you.

Mrs. Chestnut, it is yet, it is yet.
Then what are you here for? The donuts?

Yeah, and also,

how sure are you that your brother's
among the dearly departed?

My brother is dead. Let him be.

Yeah, well, a lot of people are dead,
but usually you see bodies.

I saw him.

Oh, you saw a box of ashes.

His girlfriend identified him also.

Well, she got herself killed also.

Get out.

I don't have to talk to you.

You know a girl by the name of Julie
Winston?

She used to live next door to you in
Ohio.

She got herself dead also.

I'm calling the police and my lawyer.

Yeah, well, you can call your lawyer,
honey, but the local cops know I'm here.

What did you do?

Talk to everybody in town?

Nobody here knows me.

Mrs. Chester, you paid $16 ,000 for this
joint. Cash.

Where'd the cash come from? The grave?

I saved it. Then with insurance.

Not on your brother, there wasn't.

Look, I don't have to answer to you.

Now you get out of here and play your
games with somebody else.

My brother is dead.

You came here for nothing.

What can I tell you?

The trip was worth it. And I want to
thank you very much.

For what? For reassuring me.

To say I could still spot a liar a mile
away. Here, keep the change.

Oh, if you're not doing anything on
Friday, why don't you hop a plane to New

York?

They're burying Julie Winston.

And there's nothing like a couple of
friendly faces from back home, right,

You wanted to see me?

I received another message.

This one has instructions.

The price is now $200 ,000.

And you're to make the delivery tomorrow
afternoon.

We'll be making a statement.

Before his price goes to a million.

Cracker!

Cracker!

Where did this department store fire
last night?

It was an accident. Compressible. No
injuries.

Did you talk to the fire department?

No. Did you talk to a witness?

Well, the security chief, Tom Downley,
you know him. He retired from the

Flatbush Detectives. He gave me all the
information.

Oh, yeah?

What did he do?

Camouflage you from the smoke from his
cigars?

I mean, the fire department ruled the
fire as suspicious.

Come on, let's go.

You come a long way, baby.

I like to think so.

I mean, if you don't get the building
blown up with you under it.

Did that match give you enough time to
think up an answer?

I feel.

Compressors blow out. It happens.

It happens. Oh, how easy.

Two alarms transmitted from two stores
on the same day.

When you squash with the con job on a
young cop who wants to be a nice guy to

former cop.

And the others designated as suspicious
by the fire department.

Caused by detonation.

That's the way they put it.

Now, how would you put it?

Fellas, no one was hurt. Hurt? Play me
for a jerk. Give me a cock and bull

story. They got it right up in a report.

That was no report. It was just a piece
of paper they just signed your name on.

To me, it was my job.

Donnelly, it's beginning to stink.

I mean the story and that cigar.

Theo, it's being handled. Don't worry
about it.

Handle? How?

And by who?

Now you talk to me, ex -cop, or I'll
make a bigger explosion than the last

All right, it's extortion.

The guy delivered some sample bombs.

Now I deliver the price or he's going to
do it again.

And I got a boss that writes the rules
which include not having anything to do

with cops.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, fellas,
please sit down.

Now look, if you put the pressure on
Proctor, he's going to know what started

with me and I'll be out of a job.

Okay.

Pay office tomorrow.

Set it up any way you want.

We can always blow it open.

Okay.

When I know where.

You'll know.

We'll expect a call.

I'm sorry I conned you, kid.

It's all right, Donnelly. I wouldn't
want you to be straight with a cop who's

still a cop.

What can you do with a kid who still
believes in self -respect?

Huh?

You mean to tell me that it should have
been easier on him?

He had it coming.

What's happening with that sketch the
artist made of the guy who asked about

Julie Winston?

We've got him spread all over the
village.

Now, wait a minute.

How many guys are we looking for?

Kelson's M .O.? And this guy who hit the
department stores?

Think it all ties together?

So far, it doesn't pull apart.

She ran from a bomber she swore was
still alive, and suddenly she goes off

roof.

For no reason. Why?

Why? Of course, she did see him, Bobby.

He's here now, the same I'm always
Kelton's.

The same carelessness about victims.

Get the guy set up. I want an 8 o 'clock
call.

That gives us time to stake out the drop
when Donnelly calls, and then get some

sleep.

Want to get something to eat first?

Yeah, sure.

Where are you going to be? I'll drop by.
I was thinking of that Chinese joint

down on Mutt Street.

Let's settle down now and stay awake,
okay?

I'm sure they brought sleeping bags.

Oh, yeah?

Would you rather be down in the village
showing the pictures around?

Well, if I had my choice now, I think
I'd rather say yes.

You're supposed to be in a village with
Kelton's sketch.

Lieutenant Nicola sent me. Braden's
department store's been bombed. They

east side. One of the customers was
killed.

Go down and pick up the money.

No collection today.

The bomb was timed to go off at exactly
that hour. Whoever did it knew he was

going to hit on an open store. He wanted
blood. And he also knew we staked out

the payoff, so give me names.

Nobody. Nobody?

What do you mean, nobody? Who put the
money together?

What about the guy carrying a bundle?

Proctor put the money together, and the
guy with me was Rhodes.

Oh, anybody else?

That's it.

Hey, someone has to be feeding
information from the inside.

He doesn't figure to be Proctor, he can
steal all he wants with a pen. So it's

Rhodes.

Andy, Rhodes has been with me since I
had this job.

You know, he used to work out of the
Brooklyn precinct, too. Are you kidding?

Well, tell me how kind he is to his
mother.

I don't know.

Lives alone.

Drives a car old enough to look honest.

Buys his clothes off a rack in a store,
cut rate.

Goes to Florida two weeks a year. Does
he have an office?

That desk. Why don't you let me see his
phone bill?

Those papers make him look like all he
does is his job.

You know, this is wrong.

You should have a court order. Oh, now
he gets religion, huh? We don't have

enough for a court order.

So you're doing your security here? Go
on, clear your friend.

I pull anything from Ohio or West
Virginia. 626 -0543. Hey.

Oh, my God.

He goes in the same way. All to that
coffee shop, Kelton's sister.

Where's Rose now?

He's up at Proctor's office waiting for
another contact from Obama.

Rhodes is doing what you should have
done, delivering the package.

Who are these men? Oh, hi there. Where
are the cops?

Police. I told you, no police.

Look, would you let me see the message?

You know, the note.

I have a business to protect.

About your holiday sales, Mr.

Proctor. Case set up, baby.

I want the note.

I didn't see the note.

Rhodes rushed off to handle it. When?

About an hour ago.

You blew it, little man.

The board of directors will be glad to
know that you handed the money to a guy

involved in extortion and in murder.

You know where Rhodes lives?

Yeah.

You. Wait in your office.

Nobody's home.

Yeah, tell it, sir. This is Lieutenant
Kojak, Manhattan South. I want to send

alarm here. Two males, white, murder,
extortion, arson.

No, no, stop it. We've got to learn to
love one another.

What do you want?

Kelton.

Kelton, Kelton.

Yeah, I don't know anybody by that name.

Yeah, well, we have no time to play good
guy and bad guy. You figure us all for

the bad guys and you'll be right.

Here we go.

Oh.

It's for a lock of the terminal, right?

Somewhere. Which one?

All right, all I did was deliver the
money to the box like I was supposed to.

And then I met him with the key.

I see. And you split the cash and you
kissed goodbye. How nice.

You're locked in, Rhodes.

There are also two murders involved, so
it's goodbye garbage.

Look, Kojak!

You let Kelton get away once before.

Now, I'm the only one that knows where
he is.

Either we make a deal, or you two guys
go play hide -and -go -seek.

You mean with somebody like you, I gotta
worry about holding up my end? Tsk,

tsk, baby.

Talk.

Call the DA.

Now or forget it!

the place covered as well as we can. The
terminal police are in on this, too.

Start looking.

That's him over there!

Watch him.

Come on.

was going to kill anybody?

Not even that girl in the village?

Hey, I swear I didn't know who she was.

Who she was?

Nobody.

A kid from a small town in Ohio, light
painter. You know the type.

Ordinary. Get him out of here.

Let's go. Come on, get out of here.

I'm going back there and I'm going to
lay it into Proctor.

He's not going to hold that salary check
over my head anymore.

I'll tell him what he can do with it
first.

Yeah, sure, Tom. Why don't you go on
ahead? I'll see you there later.

Yeah.

Do you think he's going to say all that?

I think he's going to say, uh, good
morning, Mr. Proctor.

Nice day today, Mr. Proctor.

Look, there's still time for Julie
Winston's wake. All the guys are going

Thanks.

We figured even lieutenants can go broke
paying for funerals, so we all chipped

in a kitty and, you know.

Yeah, I know.

It's really nice, but, I mean, what
you're doing is nice.

It's a lousy way to say I'm sorry, but
it's the only way I got. Local for West

Orange.

Orange. South Orange.

Maplewood.

Milburn. Springfield.

Oh, please let me go.

Well, what's the rush?

Are you police officers?

Yes, I'm Lieutenant Kojak, and this is
Detective Crocker.

Oh, I simply can't believe it. I'm not
in this fantastic city for two minutes

when a man offers to help me with my
bags, and I say no thanks.

But he kept on insisting. And so finally
I just grabbed my bags and I ran.

I mean, are all the things you hear
about New York true?

Oh, uh, especially the good things.

Well, what do I do?

I mean, he said he'd pick me up tonight
or New York won't be a fun city for me.

Uh, well, uh, I'll meet you back at the
office. Excuse me?

Well, uh... I mean, a perfect stranger
threatens me as I'm getting off the bus.

You think I'm crazy, don't you? Oh, no.

Now, the first thing you do, you go to a
different hotel.

And as we go in there, you give me a
description of the man.

Does this sort of thing happen all the
time?

Hardly ever.
