Peace.

Sorry,

ma 'am, no reporting allowed on the
crime scene. My identification.

I think you should take me to the lead
investigator.

Her name is Tanya Gardner.

Her husband was in Topio on business.
He's on his way home now.

Murder in the commission of a burglary,
huh?

That's what it looks like. And the
killer is a man named Grant Connor.

Inspector Vanessa Churchill, Scotland
Yard.

Inspector?

What has the yard got to do with the
garden variety murder in Malibu?

Grant Connor is a jewel thief.

I've been following him for six months,
getting closer and closer.

I lost him last night, three blocks
away.

Ruben, Samson and Delilah.

Authentic?

Probably not.

Uh -huh.

This was Connor's usual M .O.

Cut through a glass window or door,
avoiding the alarm wires.

Did he usually kill to get what he
wants?

No.

Usually he just seduces and betrays his
victims.

It was Connor's way of finding out where
important jewels are kept.

He slept with the women who owned them.

This one.

She was very beautiful, wasn't she?

Any idea why he killed her?

Maybe she wasn't supposed to be here
when he broke in.

Maybe she could identify him.

Or... Yes?

Maybe she helped him and then made
demands.

Women have been known to be like that.

And maybe he didn't want to give in to
her demands.

Men have been known to be like that.

But not to kill, surely?

Perhaps you've known different men than
I have.

She was so sweet -tempered, you know.

Always made you feel like you're mad at
her. You know what I mean?

Can you give me an idea of her itinerary
the past few weeks?

Easy. Every day was the same.

She slept in late.

After lunch, she and I would go to Saks,
Beverly Hills.

She'd shop three, four hours.

Come back with a lipstick.

New pair of shoes.

Like that.

And, uh...

Oh, Seton Barclay. Is he still at the
yard? With the yard. He is the yard.

He was here back in... Oh, gee, when was
it?

86, 87, somewhere late in the 80s.
That's right. He was working on... The

runaway royalty murder. That's right.

And his wife, Tabitha, how's she?

Truthfully, I don't know. I haven't
really spent any time to speak up with

for several years. Sorry.

Would you tell me something?

If I can.

That painting, Samson and Delilah, how
did you know that was not the original?

The original was auctioned off in 1640,
the year Rubens died.

When it appeared again in the Prince of
Liechtenstein collection in Vienna, it

was widely believed to be a fake. A very
good copy by Jan van Hecke.

Then it disappeared again and was
rediscovered in 1929 when it was sold to

German tobacco dealer.

At the time, it was heralded as the
original Rubens, but no one knew what

happened to the copy by Van Hecke.

Then the painting was lost again,
resurfacing only recently.

So who can say?

Rubens, Van Hecke, or someone else
entirely?

Sounds like a shell game.

A very expensive one, yes.

Good morning.

Oh! Wouldn't happen to know of any cigar
shops in the area that might carry a

small, unadvertised supply of Cuban
cigars, would you?

Cuban cigars are illegal in the United
States.

Yes, well, even so, I had heard that
some proprietors keep a limited supply

their favored customers.

Is this pertinent to the Connor case?
Oh, not at all.

It's a disgusting habit, I admit, but
I've developed rather a fondness for

cigars, particularly Havana.

You smoke cigars?

At first, it was a way to get my
colleagues to accept me as one of the

Then I got hooked.

I see.

I wouldn't want you to give me any
information that might leave you feeling

compromised.

But if you would think as I would, that
I'd only be skating on the edge of the

most minor of illegalities.

Well, if you can think of anything else,
no matter how unimportant it might seem

to you... I'll call her.

Thank you.

She said she'd meet you back at the
station.

I've got to get to the hospital and make
my rounds.

Hello? Hi, Amanda.

I'm on my way back there right now.

And I've got some good news for you.

I just spoke to Mark, and he's agreed to
donate a signed Agatha Christie first

edition. Oh, no.

Mrs. Simpkins brought in a gown that was
actually worn by Princess Di. Wow.

And I think we have an original teddy
bear. Teddy bear from Theodore

era. Look, I know what an original teddy
bear is, okay?

All right.

You're not the only one around here who
knows the value of something.

Oh, where's all this coming from?

Sorry. I'm just excited about the
quality of items that are being donated

the fundraiser. I know, I know. You
know, the thing is, I've got this

It was a gift from my father.

Your father? Yeah, he brought it back
from Eastern Europe about 18 years ago.

Anyway, it's signed.

By whom?

It's not a Stradivarius.

It's not even an Amati.

It's not pure than Roebuck, is it?

Oh, no, it's a Berganzi. A Berganzi?

Ever hear of Carlo Berganzi?

He was an 18th century violin maker who
apprenticed under Amati, who ultimately

inherited Stradivari at his workshop.

And your father told you all this?

Yeah, but then I read up on him.

Well, it could be worth a fortune.

You know, it's hard to say.

Manufacturers would often forge
signatures just to sell instruments.

You've never had it authenticated?

No, but, you know, I figure I might as
well give it to the hospital for the

auction. Wait a minute. Now, Jesse, if
the violin was actually made by this...

Berganzi. Berganzi, it could be worth
what?

I don't know. I mean, a Stradivarius
sold for a million dollars in 1996.

There you go.

You must get the instrument appraised.
But it's not a Stradivarius.

It's probably not even a Berganzi. I
mean, what are the odds of that, right?

I have an authenticator coming to
appraise some items.

Would you like me to have him look at
your violin?

It's probably worth $200 at most. So
what? It's still a generous donation.

Look, it's not like I play the thing, so
if I can give it to a worthy cause,

well then, good.

Jesse, I want you to think about it.
What I don't want is for you to donate

violin and regret it later.

All right, absolutely not.

I will think about it.

According to her chauffeur, Mrs. Gardner
went to a store in Beverly Hills every

day for three or four hours. But her
credit card records show that she hardly

ever bought anything.

Well, there's no law against window
shopping. No fun in it either.

Inspector Churchill has another theory.

The store is directly across the street
from the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.

I stopped in on my way here.

So? So, if the victim were having an
affair, she could have been using

as a cover.

Grant Connor, courtesy Interpol.

He registered at the Beverly Wilshire
ten days ago.

Checked out this morning.

Early.

So you think the thief cozied up to the
victim, got her to tell him where the

jewels were, broke into her house, and
then what?

Killed her?

Inspector Churchill thinks that maybe
she didn't know he was going to rob her,

or maybe she did and wanted to go with
him.

Grant Connor is a very charming man.

Yeah, he looks charming.

What did he take? We won't know until
the husband returns, but whatever it

it must have been worth a lot if he was
willing to kill for it.

All right.

I'll put out an APB. I agree.

That would be the smart thing to do.

Well, thank you, Inspector. I'm so glad
Scotland Yard approves.

Can I help you?

I'm looking for Cuban cigars. I'm sorry,
we don't carry them.

In that case...

I'm looking for a man who smokes Cuban
cigars. This man.

You a cop?

I belong to a presidential inquiry
committee.

President Cleveland, perhaps you
recognize the picture.

And he would be ever so grateful if,
when you see this man we're looking for,

you would give me a call.

Come here. You're on TV.

He is sought for questioning in
connection with a burglary in Malibu and

possible murder of a woman, Tanya
Gardner, the former model and actress

young wife of millionaire Edward
Gardner.

Is that true about the woman?

Of course not. I told you what happened.

Where are you going?

Friends.

Well, Grant, how will I know how to get
in touch with you? I'll call you.

I'll be a good girl and find my shoes.

I've been expecting you.

You caught the six o 'clock news.

As did a half a million other people.

Come on in.

I only need to stay a few days.

Unfortunately, I already have a house
guest.

Vanessa.

One of these days you're going to have
to find a fence I haven't introduced you

to.

Two eggs, boiled for exactly three
minutes.

Seven -grain bread, sweet butter, and
coffee, black.

Unless you've changed your dietary
habits.

Doesn't appear as if either of us has
changed.

You were very clever to find me.

You don't know all the places I looked
where I didn't find you.

We need to talk.

Without the diamond I stole from the
lovely Mrs. Gardner... Is it absolutely

necessary that she die?

Do you really want to go there? Oh, did
you mean to touch a nerve?

Let's keep to the topic at hand.

Your little collection is practically
worthless without the pride diamond.

Perhaps $10 million, that's hardly
worthless.

But this is the case of the whole being
greater than the sum of its parts.

Six diamonds are worth maybe $15
million.

But completing the collection with all
seven, what would you guess?

Fifty? A hundred million?

Maybe more.

That's assuming I can even procure the
seventh.

I have no doubt you will.

What did you have in mind?

Five million.

Dollars?

Oh, yes.

I'll have to think about that.

You have five minutes.

Let me explain something to you.

For me, this isn't just about the money.

It's about owning a piece of history.

It's about having in my possession
something that Nicholas Romanoff once

his hands.

I failed your education when I neglected
to impart that same sense of... Oh.

And now you have four minutes.

I'll call a cab who can take me to it
right now.

And they say the British have no sense
of humor.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize you have
the five million on you.

I didn't see it when you disrobed last
night.

I won't have it until I sell the
collection.

The complete collection.

Then I guess you'll have to borrow it.

And how can I be certain you even have
the stone?

You're certain or you wouldn't have come
after me.

I would have thought you would have
hidden it right here on Ira's

Hide in plain sight? Isn't that your
usual M .O.? You ought to know.

You taught me everything.

Oh.

Hello? Inspector Chucho.

Yes. Yes, I think you should come out to
the Gardner place right away. There's

been some developments.

My son's interviewing Tonya Gardner's
husband, but I think it's unlikely he

anything to do with the murder.

That would have been my guess also.

Oh, I bought you this.

It's not Cuban, but it is expensive. I
thought maybe you'd do in a pinch.

Thank you.

Lovely.

Mr. Gardner's identified the piece that
was stolen from their safe.

It was a diamond, one of a set of seven.

Seven? Want a light for that?

No, I'll save it for later.

The set was called The Seven Deadly
Sins. They were cut for the last czar of

Russia.

Nicholas Romanoff. Yes.

Each one was a slightly different color,
I understand, and each one was cut in a

slightly different manner.

The largest one was called Gluttony, and
then the one with the red tinge in it

was called Anger, and so on.

Fascinating. I guess after the Russian
Revolution, the set was split up, and

move to reunite the set has become quite
an obsession, I guess, with some of the

collectors around the world.

Understandably so.

You sure you don't want to light this?
No, thank you. No, really. I just had

one. So, these jewels.

Well, interestingly enough, five of them
have been stolen in the last 18 months.

The one that was in the Gardner safe is
the sixth one.

Pride, I think.

I knew Connor was up to something. I had
no idea it was this big.

You know, I have a private concern here.

The seventh one, Lust, I think it's
called, has been donated to an auction

benefiting a hospital where I work.

So you think that Grant Conner is
planning to steal that one as well?

Can I ask you a favor?

Certainly. Would you smoke that cigar?

Just a couple of puffs. I have to know
if it's as good as Halesman convinced me

there was.

All right.

Oh, what a shame. I seem to have left my
lighter. Here you go.

You have to cut the end off first,
otherwise it won't draw.

You never smoked a cigar in your life,
did you?

You never worked at the yard, either.

What gave me away?

Anyone who knows as much as you know
about Rubin's paintings would have known

everything there is to know about those
diamonds I told you about.

Not necessarily.

Well, then there's also the matter of
Inspector Barclay's wife, Tabitha.

Barclay was a lifelong bachelor.

He did have a succession of dogs,
bloodhounds, every one of them named

He was notorious for bringing them to
work with him. And anyone who worked at

the yard would have known that.

My real name is Vanessa Thackeray.

Grant Connor broke into my house in
England and stole my jewelry.

He did almost all those things to me
that he did to that poor woman.

He seduced me and made a fool of me.

And you want revenge.

My typical story has a twist, however.

My husband came home unexpectedly,
caught him, and they struggled.

My husband had a heart attack and died.

I want Grant Connor caught.

You have the death penalty here in
America, which makes it even better. I'm

sorry if that sounds harsh, but it's how
I feel.

And I'm sorry I lied to you.

I was afraid you wouldn't let me in on
the investigation otherwise.

You're right.

I couldn't then, and I can now.

You know, I have to check out that
identity, too.

It's cold.

You think she'll walk away from this?

I didn't think so, either.

Cigar? Yeah.

You have to bite the end off.

This one?

Jesse, is that the guy, Lynn?

No, I'm Al Capone.

Take it. I can't take it unless you're
sure.

I am sure. Don't I sound it? No.

Well, I am, so take it.

You know, maybe I will just take one
last peek at it.

It was a gift from my father, and then
I'll hand it over.

Here. Can't accept it.

What? You're not ready to give it up.

I said I'm ready, and I am. So, here.
Jesse, this is a gift from your father.

And I really think that you should hold
on to it. And I'm sorry, I have tons to

do. You don't want it?

No.

You're telling me it's not good enough
for your auction?

Jesse, this isn't about the violin. It's
about your father.

My father? You're crazy.

Jesse, forget it. I've known you a long
time. And we'd love to have your violin

in the auction, only if you and your
father's ghost are willing to give it up

wholeheartedly.

I hope it is valuable.

It would be a first for my father.

Vanessa Thackeray, is there a message
for me?

The girl's name is Polly Cornwallis.

I'm not looking for a girl. You're
looking for this one.

She always came in with a man when he
bought her savannas. She came in this

morning alone.

What's this?

Her license plate. One of those vanity
things.

Polly C1.

You can get the address from that.

Well, I figure that should inspire
President Cleveland's gratitude, don't

Come meet me.

What's she doing?

Something nice, it looks like.

You think there's any chance that she
killed Tanya Gardner?

You know, there's two exits at this
place.

I'll take the one on the west side.

Are you Cornwallis?

Polly.

Cornwallis is my last name.

I thought I went better with costume.

Cornwallis costume.

May I see that ring there? Oh, sure.

All of my stuff is guaranteed costume
quality jewelry.

Very nice. Thank you.

What about that necklace there? Oh, that
was worn by Rita Hayworth in Rain.

Oh. Oh, yes.

Beautiful, isn't it? Yes.

Do you have a restroom?

Sure. It's right back there.

What about that piece there?

That's, um, just decoration.

It's junk. But I like it.

How much?

I'm sorry, it's not for sale.

Everything's for sale. Name a price.

I really am sorry.

It's my boyfriend's. He's just letting
me use it for window decorations, but he

was very definite.

He wants it back.

Oh.

Do you mind if I just look at it?

It's weak.

Yeah.

It's lovely.

Too bad.

I know just what I would have done with
it.

And then there was one.

My boyfriend said the diamond was worth
thousands of dollars and that this woman

he knew had killed somebody to get it.

Is this your boyfriend, Grant Connor?

Yes. Did he tell you you were receiving
stolen goods?

No. And that that is a felony?

I don't know anything about that. He
just gave it to me to hold for him for a

couple of days.

That's all.

Look, if it really was stolen, why would
he have me place it here right where

anybody could see it?

Edgar Allan Poe, the Prolonged Letter.

What? The origin of Hyde in Plain Sight.

Dr. Sloan, pretty lady gave me five
bucks and this address said to tell you

the man you want, this is where he's at.

that pseudonyms aside, her real name is
Vanessa Sellers. I bet she's something

of a legend in Europe.

A retired cat burglar. An alleged cat
burglar. She's never been convicted of

anything. What would that make you? Her
alleged, uh, how should I put this?

Call sailor?

Offense is offense is offense, Mr.
Janos.

Vanessa Sellers and I haven't had any
business dealings for the past seven

years. As a matter of fact, I'd also
heard that she was retired.

That is, until she showed up at my
doorstep last night.

Who's Grant Connor?

He was her protege and her lover. A
tidy.

They had a falling out three, four years
ago. Another woman, I believe.

But they seemed to be on fine terms last
night and early this morning when they

finally parted ways.

I hope I'm not telling you more than you
wanted to know. Oh, there's no such

thing. Well, then perhaps you'll want to
know this.

Grant told me that Vanessa stole a very
important diamond two nights ago and

apparently killed a woman in the
process.

Which part?

I don't believe she killed Tonya
Gardner.

Well, there's two people that said she
did.

Two people that Grant Conner told.

It doesn't fit the profile from Scotland
Yard we got on Vanessa Sellers.

It doesn't fit Grant Conner's profile
either.

True.

But if she killed somebody, why would
she hang around waiting to be arrested?

Now, returning to the scene of the crime
may be a cliche, but it's based on

fact. Criminals have been known to work
themselves into the investigation of the

very crime they committed.

There is another reason she might have
tried to get in on the investigation.

Seven's diamond is going to be auctioned
off in two more days.

And who better to lead a right to it
than you?

Yeah, but that would be foolish of her.
She's got to know we're going to be

guarding that diamond more closely than
ever.

Foolish or incredibly daring.

And that does fit Vanessa Sellers'
profile.

I think I just lost my appetite.

Hi, I'm Jesse Travis.

Yes? Oh, I donated a violin.

Hi, Jesse. Hey, did you get a chance to
look at it yet? Which?

The violin.

It's a Berganzi. Mr. Van Ark has been so
busy examining all of these items.

It's a copy, isn't it?

Oh, yes. The factory -made violin.

The forged signature was quite good,
actually. Almost had me fooled. But the

incorrect lacquer coating gave it away.

So it's worth what?

Oh, depending on the sentimental value,
of course. There's no sentimental value.

$250, $300?

$49.

Dollars? Yes.

You couldn't even round it up to an even
$50? I don't ever round up anything.

The value is the value, period.

$49. Dollars.

I understand how disappointing it would
be to find out something you cherished

is worthless.

Believe me, I never cherished it. I kept
it in a box, in my college locker, in

my closet, so don't worry about it.

That's fine.

I should have known it was a phony, just
like everything else my father gave to

me. Phony doesn't necessarily mean
worthless.

There was a rather well -known violin
maker in the early part of the 19th

century who crafted exquisite copies of
famous violins.

Yes, well, thank you for that
illuminating information.

Some count named Rosario Caltabiano. He
loved making

violins. He handcrafted them lovingly,
and then, because he was a nobleman and

not supposed to do a labourer's work, He
signed other people's names to them and

sent them out to be sold.

Yes, well, thank you. I believe you left
a section over there undusted.

Hey, did you know about this Caltabiano
guy?

Yes, of course. Everyone knows about the
Italian count.

Did you check to see if mine was one of
his?

Well... No.

How much would a fake Caltabiano be
worth?

About $20 ,000, $25 ,000.

Thereabouts.

I'll look into it.

Good idea.

Hey, how'd you know so much about
violence?

We're done.

use the code 341.

Hello. Sorry.

Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. What
are you doing here? How did you get in

this car?

It's a talent I have.

I just got a call from Steve. They found
a gun in your hotel room. The murder

weapon. In the loo?

Yes.

Every law enforcement agency in this
county is out looking for you.

Grant Conner set me up.

Vanessa. Right from the beginning. Even
the alarm that went off. I've never

tripped a burglar alarm in my life.

I'm going to have to turn you over to
the police.

I won't let you.

I've got a gun.

No, you don't.

Scotland Yard sent me a copy of your
files. You never carry a gun.

If you know that, you know I couldn't
have killed Tanya Gardner.

I admit I'm kind of leaning that way
myself, but the police department isn't.

At least let me explain my side of this
to you.

Please.

Grant's been telling anybody who would
listen that I did it.

He's been quite insistent.

That's bothered me a little bit, too.

So when I left the hotel, I rang up the
front desk and asked them to send up a

plumber to check my loo.

Asked them which plumber they sent up.

He'll tell you there was no gun in the
loo after I left.

Now, how do I know you didn't go there
afterwards and stash it in the one place

you do with the alibi?

I haven't been back to my room.

I'm supposed to take your word for that?

It would be nice, but not essential.

I have witnesses.

I was at the auction house all day,
casing the joint, I think you call it.

Ask your friends, Dr. Bentley and Dr.
Travis, about the cleaning lady and the

violin.

Ask them to tell you the story of Count
Caltabiano.

So you concocted an interesting tale so
they wouldn't forget you.

It's all true.

Every word of it.

And so is the fact that I never put a
gun in the loo in my hotel room.

Now, how could you possibly know in
advance where Gran was going to hide

gun? I complained about the heating
system.

Had them check the air vents.

Ask housekeeping to please vacuum the
curtains.

Under the bed.

Behind the dresser.

I had a very busy morning.

What?

Are you going to turn me in?

Any sign of Grant Conner? Not yet.

By the way, Jesse, I think it was great
donating the violin.

Oh, thanks, but it's probably not going
to sell.

You weren't supposed to be here until
tomorrow morning. We've got a break with

traffic out of Bakersfield.

Will they dock you for that?

Yeah. Don't want to make the company
look too good, huh?

You still can take us tonight, can't
you? Sure. I can't go anywhere until

the auction anyway. Great, thanks.

So, that's a real mummy?

For the Egyptian auction next week.

We'll put it in the basement and I'll
unpack it tomorrow. There you go. Thanks

lot.

Nothing yet.

Here either.

You let me know if you see anything
suspicious.

I will.

I have to say this again, Dad. This is a
really bad idea.

The only way Vanessa can prove she
didn't commit that murder is to catch

who did.

Unless he catches the diamond instead
and pulls a disappearing act.

I want it up against that wall over
there.

Watch the light overhead.

That's it.

Face down.

Perfect.

Thanks,

guys. Good evening, ladies and
gentlemen, and welcome to our auction

evening. As you know, all proceeds
tonight will benefit the building fund

Community General Hospital.

Our first item.

is a stunning copy of a Bagonzi violin
crafted by the famous forger Count

Caltabiano.

I'm going to start the bidding at $500.

$550, thank you.

$600. $650 to the gentleman in the
boutonniere.

I think he's here.

Vanessa.

Vanessa?

Vanessa?

She's not responding.

Check on the roof. I'll go check on the
diamond.

Yeah, keep a close watch out here,
William.

Anything suspicious?

Anything at all?

No, sir. Everything seems to be just
fine.

Guard, I need some help in the basement.

And now, ladies and gentlemen, the item
you have been waiting for.

The piece de resistance.

The seventh jewel.

In the Romanoff Seven Deadly Sins
Collection, The Last Diamond.

Any sign of Vanessa?

No, but she's got to be here. She
wouldn't leave.

Not without the diamond, anyway.

We start the bidding at $300 ,000.

Thank you. Do I hear $325 ,000?

I've got to log in these items for
Monday. I need you to witness it.

Company policy.

At $1 ,400 ,000 then, going once, going
twice,

sold to the gentleman from Ohio.

I guess that was all much ado about
nothing. The diamond is safe from the

minute to its appearance.

Looks that way.

I'll feel better about the whole thing
when we find Vanessa.

Excuse me. I was told you're the
gentleman who donated this beautiful

for the auction.

Yes, yes.

I have a daughter. She's 13, and she's
just been accepted to Juilliard.

This violin will be her dream come true.

Really? Even a copy of a Bargondi.

It's the best $15 ,000 I ever spent.

Thank you for giving it up.

You're welcome.

Oh, I'm so sorry that I hurt you. Let me
look at that.

Fair to stare.

You got the diamond on him?

Yeah, right here.

Piece of coal?

Where's the diamond?

I don't know.

It was in there.

We put out an APB on her.

She and the diamond are probably long
gone by now.

Steve, I'm sorry. I was wrong.

It doesn't happen that often.

You going to be all right?

Yeah, I'll be fine.

And don't worry, Dad. We'll catch her.
Yeah.

Vanessa?

Dear Mark, I couldn't take the diamond.

Not after you put your trust in me.

But at least for a few hours, I had all
seven jewels in my possession.

Just like Nicholas.

Thank you for that.

By the way, tell Jesse...

There really was a Count Caltabiano, and
this violin was one of his.

He should keep it as a memento of his
father.

Ciao, my friend.
